B Many people around me make a difference to the world on a daily basis — being kind in unexpected ways and sharing the generosity of their lives with others. I, like many of them, volunteer some of my time in order to give back just a little of what I am so blessed to have. I volunteered to go to Guatemala with an eyeglass team from International Relief Teams — an organization I have supported in other ways for many years. Our team went to a small town in Guatemala, San Augustin. We set up our tables and packages of pre-made glasses in the dirty courtyard of a clinic, put up the Snellen chart (an eye chart) on a wall, and began our work. Young and old people came from many of the surrounding towns. Most had never received an eye exam before. They waited for hours patiently in the sun, never complaining. If we could help them out, their thankfulness for a simple pair of glasses was overwhelming. Some only left with eye drops or sunglasses, and even these people expressed their gratitude sincerely. All of them were very generous with blessings and smiles. We heard over and over from people who knew their eyes needed help but they had not gone to a doctor because it was too expensive, or had not got the glasses they needed for the same reason. It’s so easy to overlook how much difference the volunteers’ small actions can make to the lives of people in Guatemala. The glasses in my country are so easily available, but to people in Guatemala, they are not. As those who could give them a hand, we watched their lives change. What a gift sight is — and what a difference being able to see clearly makes! Here, we’d like you to join us and take action to help people in need. And every day, those actions change lives. No action is too small; no action is ever wasted. 4. According to Paragraph 1, the author is probably ________. A. a major host of good deeds B. a sponsor of an eyeglass team C. a generous neighbor in his community D. a supporter of International Relief Teams 5. What do we know about the volunteers in the eyeglass team? A. Their working environment is simple. B. They are medical experts nationwide. C. Their initial preparation is inadequate. D. They have served people in Guatemala for years. 6. Which of the following words can be used to describe most people in Guatemala? A. Kind and helpful. B. Poor but grateful. C. Considerate and patient. D. Knowledgeable but unhealthy. 7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage? A. To urge people to protect their eyes. B. To ask people to volunteer in Guatemala. C. To call on people to do good deeds in daily life. D. To show the difficult life of people in Guatemala. C One inconvenient truth for the clean energy industry is the undeniable fact that wind turbines (涡轮机) kill birds. Researchers say smarter turbines could dramatically cut the toll. The American Bird Conservancy claims that at least one million bird deaths as a result of wind turbines a year in the US alone is likely to be an underestimate. That’s substantially less than the estimated 980 million birds a year that die crashing into buildings, or the 1.4 to 3.7 billion per year killed by domestic cats. But it’s still an unacceptable number, and a problem that needs to be addressed— because a fully green energy network will need more and more turbines over the coming decades. Researchers at SINTEF and the Norwegian Centre believe they have an idea that could help in a lot of cases. The idea — known as SKARV— is fairly simple: each turbine will have cameras fitted, capable of spotting birds flying directly into the path of the rotors (螺旋桨). Software will automatically calculate their predicted path, and if it looks like they’re in danger of being hit, the system will send control signals to slow the rotors down. In simulations (模拟), the system is able to avoid the vast majority of crashes. This, of course, doesn’t describe all situations. For example, if a young, inexperienced bird approaches a turbine displaying irregular flight behavior, it will not be possible to predict exactly where it will be a few seconds later. Prediction is also more difficult if several birds approach at the same time. Some researchers argue that birds are learning to avoid turbines voluntarily. But if more than a million birds a year haven’t got the memo yet, it’s still a problem worth solving. We look forward to hearing how trials progress. 8. What does the underlined phrase “cut the toll” in paragraph I probably mean? A. Maximize efficiency. B. Reduce deaths. C. Lower costs. D. Prevent errors. 9. What can be inferred about bird death caused by wind turbines in paragraph 2? A. It tops the list of bird deaths. B. It calls for immediate action. C. It has been properly solved. D. It shows progress in technology. 10. How does SKARV make wind turbines intelligent? A By keeping a constant speed. B. By recording birds’ behavior. C. By predicting potential danger. D. By sending warnings to birds. 11. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Challenges presented in simulations. B. Features of birds’ flying patterns. C. Examples of SKARV’s application D. Approaches to crash avoidance. D Every time your fingers touch your cell phone, they leave behind traces of chemicals. And each chemical offers clues to you and your activities. By analyzing them. scientists might be able to piece together a story about your recent life, a new study finds. A molecule is a group of atoms. It represents the smallest amount of some chemical. Your skin is covered in molecules picked up by everything you’ve touched. With each new thing your skin contacts, you leave behind some small share of what it’d touched earlier. Researchers at the University of California. San Diego (UCSD)recently analyzed such chemical leftovers on the phones of 39 volunteers. The study was led by biochemist Amina Bouslimani. To explore those remains, the UCSD team wiped the surface of each volunteer’s phone with a cotton swab(药棉签). The scientists also swabbed each person’s right hand. Then the researchers compared the chemicals found on each cell phone. The scientists discovered as many of the molecules as they could. They then compared these to a database of chemicals. Pieter Dorrestein. a UCSD pharmaceutical chemist, had helped set up that database a few years earlier, which contains various substances, including spices, caffeine and medicines. Traces of anywhere from hundreds to thousands of different molecules turned up on each phone. The molecules reflected what had been in the body, and what each person had handled before touching the phone. From all these molecules, Bouslimani says. “We could tell if a person is likely female, uses high-end cosmetics, dyes her hair, drinks coffee, prefers beer over wine or likes spicy food.” Police already use molecular analyses to look for traces of explosives or illegal drugs. To date, Dorrestein says. he’s never heard of police using phone remains to narrow down behavioral clues to search for a suspect. But detectives might one day use such data to track down someone who left a phone behind at a crime scene. 12. What can we conclude about the user by analyzing the leftovers on the phone? A. Personality. B. Intelligence. C. Appearance. D. Lifestyle. 13. What was the first thing needed to be done for the study? A. Comparing different chemicals. B. Hiring volunteers with cell phones. C. Building a database containing chemicals. D. Collecting the chemicals from phones. 14. What’s the author’s attitude towards the application of the research finding? A. Uninterested. B. Disappointed. C. Doubtful. D. Positive. 15. What should be the best title for the text? A Fingers Leave Clues about You on Your Phone B. Your Phone May Be Home to Various Chemicals C. Molecules Are Used to Search for Illegal Drugs D. Cell Phones Will be Used in More Fields 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you ever heard someone say, “breakfast is the most important meal of the day”, or give you advice about why it’s vital to start the day with a healthy breakfast? ____16____ Is it really that important? In a sense, it really matters. Energy restoration The word “breakfast” comes from “breaking the fast” — the idea of ending the period in which we didn’t eat during the night. The regeneration process that takes place while we sleep consumes some of our natural food reserves to heal our bodies. ___17___ So, in that way, a healthy breakfast makes sense. Weight management There are also many often-quoted studies which seem to link a state of obesity with skipping breakfast. ___18___ In a US study, 50,000 people were monitored over seven years, and those who ate a healthy breakfast were found to have a lower BMI, which seems to suggest that breakfast may indeed help people maintain a healthy weight. Better brain function ____19____ Breakfast is also associated with improved brain function, including concentration and language. A review of 54 studies found that eating breakfast can improve memory, though the effects on other brain functions were inconclusive. However, one of the researchers says there is reasonable evidence that breakfast does improve concentration. What’s most important is what we eat for breakfast. High-protein breakfasts have been found particularly effective in reducing food cravings and consumption later in the day. However, studies found that there is no agreement on what type of breakfast is healthier. ____20____ A. Breakfast helps us refill the exhausted stores. B. Weight-loss is likely to cause them health problems. C. Breakfast has been found to affect more than just weight. D. Breakfast types don’t matter as much as simply eating something. E. Thus, it is suggested that a healthy breakfast can regulate and lose weight. F. Many people are recommended to manage their weight by skipping meals. G. It seems that this feast, for many of us, is necessary for our day to start well. 第三部分：语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节、完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) Do you enjoy the Olympics? I certainly do.

So you do have to be not a little ___25___ to go down, but probably a lot.” Eddie recalled, “I got out and the crowd started ___26___ ‘Eddie! Eddie!’. It’s the most ___27___ feeling in the world.” How did Eddie do? Eddie’s British record of 71 meters ___28___ him in 58th place — 19 meters behind the competitor who placed 57th. But it didn’t ___29___. His fans loved him for other reasons. If you ask anyone in Britain, “Who won the Olympic ski jump in 1988?” Almost no one could tell you. ____30____, if you ask, “Who is Eddie Edwards?” They’ll tell you all about the crazy ski jump guy who they still remember and ____31____ to this day. The British people were proud of him for just trying, thus ____32____ didn’t matter a bit. He will be forever and ____33____ memorized by his country for doing what no one else had done in 60 years.

I, like many of them, volunteer some of my time in order to give back just a little of what I am so blessed to have. I volunteered to go to Guatemala with an eyeglass team from International Relief Teams — an organization I have supported in other ways for many years. Our team went to a small town in Guatemala, San Augustin. We set up our tables and packages of pre-made glasses in the dirty courtyard of a clinic, put up the Snellen chart (an eye chart) on a wall, and began our work. Young and old people came from many of the surrounding towns. Most had never received an eye exam before. They waited for hours patiently in the sun, never complaining. If we could help them out, their thankfulness for a simple pair of glasses was overwhelming. Some only left with eye drops or sunglasses, and even these people expressed their gratitude sincerely. All of them were very generous with blessings and smiles. We heard over and over from people who knew their eyes needed help but they had not gone to a doctor because it was too expensive, or had not got the glasses they needed for the same reason. It’s so easy to overlook how much difference the volunteers’ small actions can make to the lives of people in Guatemala. The glasses in my country are so easily available, but to people in Guatemala, they are not. As those who could give them a hand, we watched their lives change. What a gift sight is — and what a difference being able to see clearly makes! Here, we’d like you to join us and take action to help people in need. And every day, those actions change lives. No action is too small; no action is ever wasted. 4. According to Paragraph 1, the author is probably ________. A. a major host of good deeds B. a sponsor of an eyeglass team C. a generous neighbor in his community D. a supporter of International Relief Teams 5. What do we know about the volunteers in the eyeglass team? A. Their working environment is simple. B. They are medical experts nationwide. C. Their initial preparation is inadequate. D. They have served people in Guatemala for years. 6. Which of the following words can be used to describe most people in Guatemala? A. Kind and helpful. B. Poor but grateful. C. Considerate and patient. D. Knowledgeable but unhealthy. 7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage? A. To urge people to protect their eyes. B. To ask people to volunteer in Guatemala. C. To call on people to do good deeds in daily life. D. To show the difficult life of people in Guatemala. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者志愿加入国际救援小组的眼镜队，团结队友去帮助别人，为世界贡献出自己的一份力量并号召人们在日常生活中也做好事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“I volunteered to go to Guatemala with an eyeglass team from International Relief Teams-an organization I have supported in other ways for many years.(我自愿和国际救援队的眼镜队一起去危地马拉，多年来我一直以其他方式支持这个组织)”可知，作者是国际救援队的支持者。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“We set up our tables and packages of pre-made glasses in the dirty courtyard of a clinic, put up the Snellen chart (an eye chart) on a wall, and began our work.(我们在一家诊所脏兮兮的院子里摆好桌子和一包事先准备好的眼镜，把斯内伦图（一个视力检查表）挂在墙上，开始工作)”可推断出，眼镜队志愿者的工作环境很简陋。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Some only left with eye drops or sunglasses, and even these people expressed their gratitude sincerely.(有些人只留下了眼药水或太阳镜，甚至这些人也真诚地表达了他们的感激之情)”和“We heard over and over from people who knew their eyes needed help but they had not gone to a doctor because it was too expensive, or had not got the glasses they needed for the same reason.(我们一遍又一遍地从那些知道眼睛需要帮助的人那里听到消息，但他们没有去看医生，因为太贵了，或者因为同样的原因没有得到他们需要的眼镜)”可推断出，Guatemala的人虽贫穷但很感恩。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Here, we’d like you to join us and take action to help people in need.(在这里，我们希望你加入我们，采取行动帮助有需要的人)”可推断出，作者写这篇文章的目的是号召人们在日常生活中做好事。故选C。 C One inconvenient truth for the clean energy industry is the undeniable fact that wind turbines (涡轮机) kill birds. Researchers say smarter turbines could dramatically cut the toll. The American Bird Conservancy claims that at least one million bird deaths as a result of wind turbines a year in the US alone is likely to be an underestimate. That’s substantially less than the estimated 980 million birds a year that die crashing into buildings, or the 1.4 to 3.7 billion per year killed by domestic cats. But it’s still an unacceptable number, and a problem that needs to be addressed— because a fully green energy network will need more and more turbines over the coming decades. Researchers at SINTEF and the Norwegian Centre believe they have an idea that could help in a lot of cases. The idea — known as SKARV— is fairly simple: each turbine will have cameras fitted, capable of spotting birds flying directly into the path of the rotors (螺旋桨). Software will automatically calculate their predicted path, and if it looks like they’re in danger of being hit, the system will send control signals to slow the rotors down. In simulations (模拟), the system is able to avoid the vast majority of crashes. This, of course, doesn’t describe all situations. For example, if a young, inexperienced bird approaches a turbine displaying irregular flight behavior, it will not be possible to predict exactly where it will be a few seconds later. Prediction is also more difficult if several birds approach at the same time. Some researchers argue that birds are learning to avoid turbines voluntarily. But if more than a million birds a year haven’t got the memo yet, it’s still a problem worth solving. We look forward to hearing how trials progress. 8. What does the underlined phrase “cut the toll” in paragraph I probably mean? A. Maximize efficiency. B. Reduce deaths. C. Lower costs. D. Prevent errors. 9. What can be inferred about bird death caused by wind turbines in paragraph 2? A. It tops the list of bird deaths. B. It calls for immediate action. C. It has been properly solved. D. It shows progress in technology. 10. How does SKARV make wind turbines intelligent? A. By keeping a constant speed. B. By recording birds’ behavior. C. By predicting potential danger. D. By sending warnings to birds. 11. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Challenges presented in simulations. B. Features of birds’ flying patterns. C. Examples of SKARV’s application D. Approaches to crash avoidance. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究人员表示，更智能的涡轮机可以大大减少鸟类的死亡数量。介绍了这种智能涡轮机的工作原理以及存在的挑战。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“One inconvenient truth for the clean energy industry is the undeniable fact that wind turbines kill birds. Researchers say smarter turbines could dramatically cut the toll.(对于清洁能源行业来说，一个难以忽视的、不可否认的事实是风力涡轮机会杀死鸟类。研究人员表示，更智能的涡轮机可以大大cut the toll。)”以及第三段“Software will automatically calculate their predicted path, and if it looks like they’re in danger of being hit, the system will send control signals to slow the rotors down.(软件会自动计算出它们的预测路径，如果它们（鸟类）看起来有被击中的危险，系统就会发出控制信号，让旋翼减速。)”可知，这里讲述了智能涡轮机减少鸟类撞击的工作原理，所以更智能的涡轮机可以大大减少鸟类的死亡。故划线词意思是“减少死亡”。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题，根据第二段“But it’s still an unacceptable number, and a problem that needs to be addressed-because a fully green energy network will need more and more turbines over the coming decades,.(但这仍然是一个不可接受的数字，也是一个需要解决的问题——因为在未来几十年里，一个完全绿色的能源网络将需要越来越多的涡轮机。)”可知，风力涡轮机造成的鸟类死亡需要立即采取行动。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Software will automatically calculate their predicted path, and if it looks like they’re in danger of being hit, the system will send control signals to slow the rotors down.(软件会自动计算出它们的预测路径，如果它们看起来有被击中的危险，系统就会发出控制信号，让旋翼减速。)”可知，SKARV通过预测潜在危险使风力涡轮机智能化。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“In simulations, the system is able to avoid the vast majority of crashes. This, of course, doesn’t describe all situations. For example, if a young, inexperienced bird approaches a turbine displaying irregular flight behavior, it will not be possible to predict exactly where it will be a few seconds later. Prediction is also more difficult if several birds approach at the same time.(在模拟中，该系统能够避免绝大多数撞击。当然，这并不能描述所有的情况。例如，如果一只年轻的、没有经验的鸟接近一个表现出不规则飞行行为的涡轮机，就不可能准确预测几秒钟后它会在哪里。如果几只鸟同时接近，预测也会更加困难。)”可知，第四段的主要内容是模拟中存在的挑战。故选A。 D Every time your fingers touch your cell phone, they leave behind traces of chemicals. And each chemical offers clues to you and your activities. By analyzing them. scientists might be able to piece together a story about your recent life, a new study finds. A molecule is a group of atoms. It represents the smallest amount of some chemical. Your skin is covered in molecules picked up by everything you’ve touched. With each new thing your skin contacts, you leave behind some small share of what it’d touched earlier. Researchers at the University of California. San Diego (UCSD)recently analyzed such chemical leftovers on the phones of 39 volunteers. The study was led by biochemist Amina Bouslimani. To explore those remains, the UCSD team wiped the surface of each volunteer’s phone with a cotton swab(药棉签). The scientists also swabbed each person’s right hand. Then the researchers compared the chemicals found on each cell phone. The scientists discovered as many of the molecules as they could. They then compared these to a database of chemicals. Pieter Dorrestein. a UCSD pharmaceutical chemist, had helped set up that database a few years earlier, which contains various substances, including spices, caffeine and medicines. Traces of anywhere from hundreds to thousands of different molecules turned up on each phone. The molecules reflected what had been in the body, and what each person had handled before touching the phone. From all these molecules, Bouslimani says. “We could tell if a person is likely female, uses high-end cosmetics, dyes her hair, drinks coffee, prefers beer over wine or likes spicy food.” Police already use molecular analyses to look for traces of explosives or illegal drugs. To date, Dorrestein says. he’s never heard of police using phone remains to narrow down behavioral clues to search for a suspect. But detectives might one day use such data to track down someone who left a phone behind at a crime scene. 12. What can we conclude about the user by analyzing the leftovers on the phone? A. Personality. B. Intelligence. C. Appearance. D. Lifestyle. 13. What was the first thing needed to be done for the study? A. Comparing different chemicals. B. Hiring volunteers with cell phones. C. Building a database containing chemicals. D. Collecting the chemicals from phones. 14. What’s the author’s attitude towards the application of the research finding? A. Uninterested. B. Disappointed. C. Doubtful. D. Positive. 15. What should be the best title for the text? A. Fingers Leave Clues about You on Your Phone B. Your Phone May Be Home to Various Chemicals C. Molecules Are Used to Search for Illegal Drugs D. Cell Phones Will be Used in More Fields 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15.

In a sense, it really matters. Energy restoration The word “breakfast” comes from “breaking the fast” — the idea of ending the period in which we didn’t eat during the night. The regeneration process that takes place while we sleep consumes some of our natural food reserves to heal our bodies. ___17___ So, in that way, a healthy breakfast makes sense. Weight management There are also many often-quoted studies which seem to link a state of obesity with skipping breakfast. ___18___ In a US study, 50,000 people were monitored over seven years, and those who ate a healthy breakfast were found to have a lower BMI, which seems to suggest that breakfast may indeed help people maintain a healthy weight. Better brain function ____19____ Breakfast is also associated with improved brain function, including concentration and language. A review of 54 studies found that eating breakfast can improve memory, though the effects on other brain functions were inconclusive. However, one of the researchers says there is reasonable evidence that breakfast does improve concentration. What’s most important is what we eat for breakfast. High-protein breakfasts have been found particularly effective in reducing food cravings and consumption later in the day. However, studies found that there is no agreement on what type of breakfast is healthier. ____20____ A. Breakfast helps us refill the exhausted stores. B. Weight-loss is likely to cause them health problems. C. Breakfast has been found to affect more than just weight. D. Breakfast types don’t matter as much as simply eating something. E. Thus, it is suggested that a healthy breakfast can regulate and lose weight. F. Many people are recommended to manage their weight by skipping meals. G. It seems that this feast, for many of us, is necessary for our day to start well. 【答案】16. G 17. A 18. E 19. C 20.
