Is there a better way to learn how to communicate effectively? Yes, there is. Please follow the 3 basic steps below. Relax and breath Whether it’s a business meeting or a first date the first thing you must do in order to communicate is to relax. When you relax, you are in control. You control your reactions and your reactions do not control you. Breathing is central to relaxation. Take a few deep breaths and your body will begin to be more at ease. This will help you apply what you already know about how to communicate well. Think and you will be prepared Have you ever heard the old saying “think before you speak”? Well, it is true. By thinking ahead about how the conversation might flow you will be better prepared, more at ease and more confident. Follow the flow of the conversation If you are uncomfortable, being silent will only make it worse and make the other person uncomfortable as well. So when all else fails, follow through with small talk until a common topic appears. A good way to keep a conversation going is to ask the other person questions. People love to talk about themselves and if you do this they will leave the conversation thinking very highly of you. Learning good communication skills is not something out of reach. If you make an effort, you will succeed. 1. Which of the following is the best title of the passage? A. How to Communicate with Anyone You Meet B. Preparation and Conversation C. Personal Attention and Communication D. How to Begin a Conversation 2. Why does relaxation play an important part in your good communication? A. Because it can help you keep excited and react quickly in the communication. B. Because it will help you organize good sentences for your communication. C. Because it will help you put your communication skills that you know into use. D. Because no one likes to communicate with a nervous person. 3. What should you do if you feel you uncomfortable? A. I’d better keep silence in order to give the chance of speaking to others. B. I’d better speak freely so as to run across the topic you like. C. I’d better ask questions which you are interested in. D. I’d better talk small things until you find a topic you both like. 【答案】1. A 2. C 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是如何有效地沟通。 【1题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段“Knowing how to communicate well needs very personal attention between you and another human being. Is there a better way to learn how to communicate effectively? Yes, there is. Please follow the 3 basic steps below. (知道如何很好地沟通需要你和另一个人之间非常私人的关注。有没有更好的方法来学习如何有效地沟通？是的，有。请遵循以下3个基本步骤。)”可知，本文主要讲的是如何有效地沟通，因此最好的题目是A选项“How to Communicate with Anyone You Meet (如何与你遇到的人沟通)”。故选A。 2题详解】 推理判断题。根据Relax and breath部分的“Take a few deep breaths and your body will begin to be more at ease. This will help you apply what you already know about how to communicate well. (做几次深呼吸，你的身体会开始变得更放松。这将帮助你运用你已经知道的如何很好地沟通。)”可知，放松在你良好的沟通中起着重要的作用，因为它可以帮助你运用你所知道的沟通技巧。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Follow the flow of the conversation部分的“If you are uncomfortable, being silent will only make it worse and make the other person uncomfortable as well. So when all else fails, follow through with small talk until a common topic appears. (如果你感到不舒服，沉默只会让情况变得更糟，也会让对方感到不舒服。所以，当所有这些都失败时，继续闲聊，直到找到一个共同的话题。)”可知，如果你觉得不舒服，你最好聊些小事，直到找到一个你们都喜欢的话题，故选D。 B Going on holiday not only makes you feel good while you're there --- you gain the health benefits for months, new research shows. Jetting off to exotic destinations such as the Maldives cuts your blood pressure, helps you sleep better and bounce back from stress, it found. The benefits last at least a fortnight longer than the vacation and can be felt for months in some cases where it is claimed. Experts say workers should always take their full holiday entitlement each year — as many as one in three don’t — to get the benefits. The study compared key health markers in holidaymakers visiting Thailand, Peru or the Maldives, with people who stayed at home and continued working. The average blood pressure of those on holiday dropped by six percent while the workers saw their blood pressure rise by two percent over the same period. The sleep quality of holidaymakers improved by 17 percent while that of the non-holidaymakers deteriorated by 14 percent. The study also found the ability of vacationers to recover from stress — known as the stress-resilience test — improved by 29 percent. There was a 71 percent fall in stress resilience scores among workers. Tests showed a fall in blood glucose levels, reducing the risk of diabetes, trimmer waistlines and enhanced mood and energy levels, with the effects sustained for at least two weeks after returning home. The Holiday Health Experiment was conducted by tour operator Kuoni and Nuffield Health, the UK’s largest healthcare charity. 4. According to the passage, how many people go on holiday? A. One third. B. Two thirds. C. 17 percent. D. A quarter. 5. Which of the following can we infer from the passage? A. The further you go, the better the benefits. B. Most people like to stay at home during the holiday. C. Holiday makers are more adaptable than non-holidaymakers. D. The result of the study is mostly based on the description from the people involved. 6. The author intends to tell us that __________. A. we have to go on holiday as much as possible B. you’ll certainly get depressed if you don’t go on holiday C. it is best to go to foreign countries like Maldives D. we had better go on holiday for the benefit of health 7. The best title of the passage is ________ . A. Health Benefits from Holiday B. A Holiday Health Experiment C. Health Problems of Having Holiday D. Key Health Markers in Holidaymakers 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。研究表明，度假不仅让你在当时感觉良好，也对人们的健康有益，而且给你的健康带来的益处可维持数月之久。 4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的“Experts say workers should always take their full holiday entitlement each year — as many as one in three don’t — to get the benefits (专家表示，员工应该每年休完他们应得的全部假期——多达三分之一的人没有休完假期——以获得福利)”可知，三分之二的人去度假，故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段的“The sleep quality of holidaymakers improved by 17 percent while that of the non-holidaymakers deteriorated by 14 percent.(度假者的睡眠质量提高了17%，而不度假者的睡眠质量下降了14%)”和第四段“The study also found the ability of vacationers to recover from stress — known as the stress-resilience test — improved by 29 percent (研究还发现，度假者从压力中恢复过来的能力——也就是所谓的压力恢复测试——提高了29%)”可知，度假的人比不度假的人适应能力更强，故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“Going on holiday not only makes you feel good while you’re there, you also gain the health benefits for months, new research shows.(最新研究显示，度假不仅会让你感觉良好，还能让你在度假期间获得数月的健康益处)”可知，研究证明度假可以有助于人们的健康，所以作者想要告诉我们为了健康最好去度假，故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章的内容和第一段的“Going on holiday not only makes you feel good while you’re there, you also gain the health benefits for months, new research shows.(最新研究显示，度假不仅会让你感觉良好，还能让你在度假期间获得数月的健康益处)”可知，这篇文章讲的是度假给我们带来的健康的好处。选A。 C More sections of the wall surrounding the Forbidden City in the heart of Beijing are now open to the public, reported the Beijing Daily on Thursday. The Palace Museum in the Forbidden City has opened the southern, eastern and northern sections of the wall, most of which were previously closed to the public, including the section from the Wumen Gate（Meridian Gate）at the southern end to the southwest corner tower. Visitors can walk on the wall and overlook three-quarters of the palace. Built in the 1400s, the Forbidden City’s wall is the largest and best preserved royal palace wall in China, with a length of 3，437. 6 meters. It is 9. 3 meters high and 8. 55 meters wide at the base, tapering to 6. 63 meters at the top. The wall has a gate on each side. At the four corners of the wall sit towers, which are the most visible parts of the palace to people outside. Their splendid roof structure and shadows in the water surrounding the palace always draw crowds who photograph the beautiful scenery. According to Shan Jixiang, curator（馆长）of the Palace Museum, the move was mainly to avoid overcrowding during China’s week-long Golden Week holiday and offer visitors more opportunities to see the cultural relics. Such an arrangement will remain in place after the National Day In recent years, the Palace Museum has taken many measures to control the number of visitors, while unveiling more areas to the public. In2015，to celebrate its 90th anniversary, the museum made 65 percent of the royal complex, including a small section of the wall, accessible to the public. 8 Which of the following is not open to the public before？ A.

C 【解析】 【分析】本文为说明文。据《北京日报》周四报道，位于北京市中心的紫禁城周围的大部分城墙现已向公众开放，这样做的目的就是在黄金周期间接纳更多的游客。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的most of which were previously closed to the public, including the section from the Wumen Gate（Meridian Gate）at the southern end to the southwest corner tower可知，以前午门周围部分没有对公众开放。故B选项正确。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的At the four corners of the wall sit towers, which are the most visible parts of the palace to people outside可知，城墙的每一个角落都有塔楼。故D选项正确。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的the move was mainly to avoid overcrowding during China’s week-long Golden Week holiday可知，紫禁城周围的大部分城墙向公众开放的目的是在黄金周期间接纳更多的游客。故A选项正确。 【11题详解】 词义猜测题。根据上下文可推知，故宫开放更多地方以便在节假日人太多时能分散人流。A. Discovering发现；B. Completing完成；C. Opening开放；D. Reducing减少。故C选项正确。 【点睛】做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确选择。在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断。如第3小题，要求判断出为什么紫禁城会向公众开放更多的地方? 根据第五段中的the move was mainly to avoid overcrowding during China’s week-long Golden Week holiday（此举主要是为了避免黄金周期间的过度拥挤）可知，紫禁城周围的大部分城墙向公众开放的目的是在黄金周期间接纳更多的游客。故A选项正确。 D More than 100 horses and riders leaped the flames of roaring bonfires on Thursday in a small Spanish town in a centuries-old festival that has raised the anger of animal rights activists. Smoke and flames filled the night in San Bartolome de Pinares, a central Spanish town of some 600 inhabitants, in the annual festival held on Thursday, the eve of Saint Anthony’s Day for the patron saint (守护神) of animals. One by one, horses and their riders jumped the flames in the narrow, paved streets of the town. “No one knows how old the tradition is. My grandfather told me that his great-grandfather took part,” said 34-year-old Die-go Martin. “They say it could be 300 or 400 years old.” The town is fiercely attached to the festival, despite opposition from animal rights groups concerned about the safety of the horses. Just a few days earlier, Spain’s National Association for the Welfare of Animals asked the town’s people not to let their horses leap over the fires, apparently in vain. “There was an illness that killed all the horses in the town. Since then, we have done this to purify them to keep away any evil by asking for the protection of the saint,” explained 20-year-old Libertad Gomez, who has been taking part for seven years. “More than a tradition, for us it is a feeling. It is something you like almost since you were born,” said Libertad, who rode with dozens of others through the streets. Indeed, the smoke is so thick that it affects the horse and rider as they leap the fires. That does not stop youngsters from taking part in the tradition, such as 10-year-old Alejandro Nunez, who jumped for the second year running on a white horse. “I really like it. At first, it was a bit scary but that goes,” he said, equipped with a helmet and a checkered scarf to protect him from the smoke. 12. What can we learn by reading the passage? A. Horses leap fires in an ancient Spanish festival. B. A new festival has been introduced to Spain. C. The festival is not popular among youngsters. D. Horses get injured over the burning flames. 13. According to Libertad Gomez, what is true? A. The festival came into being less than 300 years ago. B. His grandfather took great interest in the activity. C. The activity helps the horses to be away from diseases. D. The evil would take the horses away during the leaps. 14. When Alejandro Nunez first leaped the fires, how does he feel? A. He felt too excited to express himself. B. He was a bit frightened for the first time. C. He was offered a helmet and a scarf. D. He became worried about his horse. 15. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Riding horses to leap fires can be dangerous. B. The riders are easy to fall into the burning fires. C. All the people support riding horses to leap fires. D. The activity will be done away with one day. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。在圣安东尼节前夕，人们骑着马从火上跳过去是这里流传已久的习俗。根据传统，此举对动物有净化、涤罪的意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“More than 100 horses and riders leaped the flames of roaring bonfires on Thursday in a small Spanish town in a centuries-old festival that has raised the anger of animal rights activists. (周四，在西班牙一个小镇上，100多匹马和骑手在熊熊燃烧的篝火上跳跃，这是一个具有百年历史的节日，引起了动物权利活动家的愤怒。)”可知，文章讲述了在一个古老的西班牙节日中，马匹跳过火焰的活动。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段中的““There was an illness that killed all the horses in the town. Since then, we have done this to purify them to keep away any evil by asking for the protection of the saint,” explained 20-year-old Libertad Gomez, who has been taking part for seven years. (“有一种病害死了镇上所有的马。从那时起，我们就这样做，通过请求圣人的保护来净化他们，远离任何邪恶。”20岁的利伯塔德·戈麦斯解释说，他已经参加了7年。)”可知，他认为这个活动可以帮助马匹远离疾病。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的““I really like it. At first, it was a bit scary but that goes,” he said, equipped with a helmet and a checkered scarf to protect him from the smoke. (“我真的很喜欢。起初，这有点可怕，但后来就过去了，”他说，他戴着头盔，围着格子围巾，以保护他免受烟雾的伤害。)”可知，他第一次跳火焰时有点害怕。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“Indeed, the smoke is so thick that it affects the horse and rider as they leap the fires. (事实上，烟雾是如此之浓，以至于马和骑手在跃过火堆时都受到了影响。)”可知，骑马跳火焰是有危险的。故选A。 第二节(共5小题：每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Hollywood movies are regularly filled with sex and violence.

When they passed by Tubman park, Isabel suggested cutting through it to get to the library. As they entered the park, the sight of the swings (秋千) and the merry-go-round brought back a flood of memories of their childhood spent there. But now everything looked so old, sad, and dirty. Litter lay on the ground next to an overflowing trash bin (垃圾箱). There were still young schoolchildren playing there but they had to avoid the trash that littered the playground. A little boy told them that the city had taken the other trash cans away and the last one wasn’t emptied very often. As they headed toward the library, the two high school students wrinkled their forehead. In the library, they encountered Mrs. Evans, their kind-hearted fifth-grade teacher, retired yet still passionate. Mrs. Evans listened as Isabel and Peter eagerly explained what they’d seen. Finally, she recommended them to go to the City Hall to voice their concerns. The next day, Isabel and Peter went into the building of the City Hall but were met with an impatient officer. They were informed that the city couldn’t help with their problem due to a tight budget. Discouraged, they left and turned to Mrs. Evans for help. Under her guidance, they decided to ask Go Green, a non-profit organization whose goal is to protect the environment, for help. “This group is good at raising money for projects just like yours,” said Mrs. Evans. She promised to arrange them to present their ideas to Go Green. Hearing this, their face lit up. Two main tasks remained ahead: researching ways to clean up the park and preparing a convincing presentation (陈述). As Isabel was good at researching while Peter always had a talent for speaking, they cooperated quite well. Isabel learned from a science magazine that a new type of trash bin can squeeze the trash down without being emptied often, which saves time, money, and energy. Based on this, Peter practiced his presentation over and over again. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting. His palms were sweaty as he clutched his notecards, nervously reviewing the key points one last time. When called upon, he stepped forward and began speaking with growing confidence. Using vivid photos of Tubman Park’s current state and diagrams of the innovative trash bins, he explained how this solution could transform their childhood playground. He emphasized the community impact — how clean parks foster healthier children and stronger neighborhoods. The board members listened intently, nodding as he presented cost estimates and maintenance plans. By the end, even the sternest faces had softened into smiles. After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news. Go Green had not only approved their proposal but also pledged to fund the installation of five self-compacting trash bins and organize monthly volunteer clean-ups. Better yet, they’d connected the teens with a city council member who promised to advocate for restored park funding. Overwhelmed with joy, the two immediately texted Mrs. Evans, who replied, “Proud of you both! This is just the beginning.” The following weekend, they gathered classmates to remove litter from Tubman Park, their laughter mixing with the rustle of trash bags — a sound of change in motion. 【解析】 【导语】本文以公园改造为线索展开，讲述了高中生Peter和Isabel发现童年乐园Tubman公园垃圾堆积、市政维护缺失。求助市政厅被拒后，两人在老师Evans的建议下向环保组织Go Green提案。Isabel调研出自压缩垃圾桶技术，Peter精彩演讲打动评审，成功获资金安装智能垃圾桶并组织月度清洁。他们更带动同学清理公园，在笑声与行动中重燃社区希望。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一周后，Peter紧张地站在‘绿色行动’组织开会大厅后面”可知，第一段可描写Peter演讲的情景，并过渡到方案得到评审的认可。 ②由第二段首句内容“会议结束后，Isabel兴奋地告诉Peter这个好消息”可知，第二段可描写他们的提议获批，得到更多的合作支持，他们开心地开展公园改造行动。 2. 续写线索：Peter紧张等待陈述——Peter演讲——评审认可——Isabel告知好消息——提议获批，得到支持——两人改造公园 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①解释：explain/clarify/explicate ②改变：transform/change ③强调：emphasize/highlight/stress/underline ④回复：reply/respond/answer 情绪类 ①紧张地：nervously/anxiously ②高兴：joy/delight/happiness 【点睛】[高分句型1] His palms were sweaty as he clutched his notecards, nervously reviewing the key points one last time.

Is there a better way to learn how to communicate effectively? Yes, there is. Please follow the 3 basic steps below. Relax and breath Whether it’s a business meeting or a first date the first thing you must do in order to communicate is to relax. When you relax, you are in control. You control your reactions and your reactions do not control you. Breathing is central to relaxation. Take a few deep breaths and your body will begin to be more at ease. This will help you apply what you already know about how to communicate well. Think and you will be prepared Have you ever heard the old saying “think before you speak”? Well, it is true. By thinking ahead about how the conversation might flow you will be better prepared, more at ease and more confident. Follow the flow of the conversation If you are uncomfortable, being silent will only make it worse and make the other person uncomfortable as well. So when all else fails, follow through with small talk until a common topic appears. A good way to keep a conversation going is to ask the other person questions. People love to talk about themselves and if you do this they will leave the conversation thinking very highly of you. Learning good communication skills is not something out of reach. If you make an effort, you will succeed. 1. Which of the following is the best title of the passage? A. How to Communicate with Anyone You Meet B. Preparation and Conversation C. Personal Attention and Communication D. How to Begin a Conversation 2. Why does relaxation play an important part in your good communication? A. Because it can help you keep excited and react quickly in the communication. B. Because it will help you organize good sentences for your communication. C. Because it will help you put your communication skills that you know into use. D. Because no one likes to communicate with a nervous person. 3. What should you do if you feel you uncomfortable? A. I’d better keep silence in order to give the chance of speaking to others. B. I’d better speak freely so as to run across the topic you like. C. I’d better ask questions which you are interested in. D. I’d better talk small things until you find a topic you both like. B Going on holiday not only makes you feel good while you're there --- you gain the health benefits for months, new research shows. Jetting off to exotic destinations such as the Maldives cuts your blood pressure, helps you sleep better and bounce back from stress, it found. The benefits last at least a fortnight longer than the vacation and can be felt for months in some cases where it is claimed. Experts say workers should always take their full holiday entitlement each year — as many as one in three don’t — to get the benefits. The study compared key health markers in holidaymakers visiting Thailand Peru or the Maldives, with people who stayed at home and continued working. The average blood pressure of those on holiday dropped by six percent while the workers saw their blood pressure rise by two percent over the same period. The sleep quality of holidaymakers improved by 17 percent while that of the non-holidaymakers deteriorated by 14 percent. The study also found the ability of vacationers to recover from stress — known as the stress-resilience test — improved by 29 percent. There was a 71 percent fall in stress resilience scores among workers. Tests showed a fall in blood glucose levels, reducing the risk of diabetes, trimmer waistlines and enhanced mood and energy levels, with the effects sustained for at least two weeks after returning home. The Holiday Health Experiment was conducted by tour operator Kuoni and Nuffield Health, the UK’s largest healthcare charity. 4. According to the passage, how many people go on holiday? A. One third. B. Two thirds. C. 17 percent. D. A quarter. 5. Which of the following can we infer from the passage? A. The further you go, the better the benefits. B. Most people like to stay at home during the holiday. C. Holiday makers are more adaptable than non-holidaymakers. D. The result of the study is mostly based on the description from the people involved. 6. The author intends to tell us that __________. A. we have to go on holiday as much as possible B. you’ll certainly get depressed if you don’t go on holiday C. it is best to go to foreign countries like Maldives D. we had better go on holiday for the benefit of health 7. The best title of the passage is ________ . A. Health Benefits from Holiday B. A Holiday Health Experiment C. Health Problems of Having Holiday D. Key Health Markers in Holidaymakers C More sections of the wall surrounding the Forbidden City in the heart of Beijing are now open to the public, reported the Beijing Daily on Thursday. The Palace Museum in the Forbidden City has opened the southern, eastern and northern sections of the wall, most of which were previously closed to the public, including the section from the Wumen Gate（Meridian Gate）at the southern end to the southwest corner tower. Visitors can walk on the wall and overlook three-quarters of the palace. Built in the 1400s, the Forbidden City’s wall is the largest and best preserved royal palace wall in China, with a length of 3，437. 6 meters. It is 9. 3 meters high and 8. 55 meters wide at the base, tapering to 6. 63 meters at the top. The wall has a gate on each side. At the four corners of the wall sit towers, which are the most visible parts of the palace to people outside. Their splendid roof structure and shadows in the water surrounding the palace always draw crowds who photograph the beautiful scenery. According to Shan Jixiang, curator（馆长）of the Palace Museum, the move was mainly to avoid overcrowding during China’s week-long Golden Week holiday and offer visitors more opportunities to see the cultural relics. Such an arrangement will remain in place after the National Day In recent years, the Palace Museum has taken many measures to control the number of visitors, while unveiling more areas to the public. In2015，to celebrate its 90th anniversary, the museum made 65 percent of the royal complex, including a small section of the wall, accessible to the public. 8. Which of the following is not open to the public before？ A. The wall surrounding the Forbidden City. B. The section around the Wumen Gate. C. The Palace Museum in the Forbidden City. D. The cultural relics in the Forbidden City. 9. What do we know about the Forbidden City’s wall？ A. It is the highest wall in China. B. It is the strongest wall in China. C. The wall has only one gate-Wumen. D. It has towers at each corner. 10. Why does the Forbidden City open more places to the public？ A. To hold more visitors during the Golden Week holiday. B. To show how large and crowded the Forbidden City is. C. To make more money by opening more places to the public. D. To attract more visitors during the Golden Week holiday. 11. What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph 6？ A. Discovering. B. Completing. C. Opening D. Reducing D More than 100 horses and riders leaped the flames of roaring bonfires on Thursday in a small Spanish town in a centuries-old festival that has raised the anger of animal rights activists. Smoke and flames filled the night in San Bartolome de Pinares, a central Spanish town of some 600 inhabitants, in the annual festival held on Thursday, the eve of Saint Anthony’s Day for the patron saint (守护神) of animals. One by one, horses and their riders jumped the flames in the narrow, paved streets of the town. “No one knows how old the tradition is. My grandfather told me that his great-grandfather took part,” said 34-year-old Die-go Martin. “They say it could be 300 or 400 years old.” The town is fiercely attached to the festival, despite opposition from animal rights groups concerned about the safety of the horses. Just a few days earlier, Spain’s National Association for the Welfare of Animals asked the town’s people not to let their horses leap over the fires, apparently in vain. “There was an illness that killed all the horses in the town. Since then, we have done this to purify them to keep away any evil by asking for the protection of the saint,” explained 20-year-old Libertad Gomez, who has been taking part for seven years. “More than a tradition, for us it is a feeling. It is something you like almost since you were born,” said Libertad, who rode with dozens of others through the streets. Indeed, the smoke is so thick that it affects the horse and rider as they leap the fires. That does not stop youngsters from taking part in the tradition, such as 10-year-old Alejandro Nunez, who jumped for the second year running on a white horse. “I really like it. At first, it was a bit scary but that goes,” he said, equipped with a helmet and a checkered scarf to protect him from the smoke. 12. What can we learn by reading the passage? A. Horses leap fires in an ancient Spanish festival. B. A new festival has been introduced to Spain. C. The festival is not popular among youngsters. D. Horses get injured over the burning flames. 13. According to Libertad Gomez, what is true? A The festival came into being less than 300 years ago. B His grandfather took great interest in the activity. C. The activity helps the horses to be away from diseases. D. The evil would take the horses away during the leaps. 14. When Alejandro Nunez first leaped the fires, how does he feel? A. He felt too excited to express himself. B. He was a bit frightened for the first time. C. He was offered a helmet and a scarf. D. He became worried about his horse. 15. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Riding horses to leap fires can be dangerous. B. The riders are easy to fall into the burning fires. C. All the people support riding horses to leap fires. D. The activity will be done away with one day. 第二节(共5小题：每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Hollywood movies are regularly filled with sex and violence.

When they passed by Tubman park, Isabel suggested cutting through it to get to the library. As they entered the park, the sight of the swings (秋千) and the merry-go-round brought back a flood of memories of their childhood spent there. But now everything looked so old, sad, and dirty. Litter lay on the ground next to an overflowing trash bin (垃圾箱). There were still young schoolchildren playing there but they had to avoid the trash that littered the playground. A little boy told them that the city had taken the other trash cans away and the last one wasn’t emptied very often. As they headed toward the library, the two high school students wrinkled their forehead. In the library, they encountered Mrs. Evans, their kind-hearted fifth-grade teacher, retired yet still passionate. Mrs. Evans listened as Isabel and Peter eagerly explained what they’d seen. Finally, she recommended them to go to the City Hall to voice their concerns. The next day, Isabel and Peter went into the building of the City Hall but were met with an impatient officer. They were informed that the city couldn’t help with their problem due to a tight budget. Discouraged, they left and turned to Mrs. Evans for help. Under her guidance, they decided to ask Go Green, a non-profit organization whose goal is to protect the environment, for help. “This group is good at raising money for projects just like yours,” said Mrs. Evans. She promised to arrange them to present their ideas to Go Green. Hearing this, their face lit up. Two main tasks remained ahead: researching ways to clean up the park and preparing a convincing presentation (陈述). As Isabel was good at researching while Peter always had a talent for speaking, they cooperated quite well. Isabel learned from a science magazine that a new type of trash bin can squeeze the trash down without being emptied often, which saves time, money, and energy. Based on this, Peter practiced his presentation over and over again. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1-5 ACBAC 6-10 BACAB 11-15 ABABC 16-20 BCBCA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
