For most students, it’s the first time they’re living away from home and managing their own life. Not surprisingly, adapting to this new lifestyle can be challenging. The following four tips will make high school graduates better prepared for college life. Goal setting When setting goals, whether they’re academic, career, or personal, re-member they should be attainable but not too easy, so that you really have to push yourself to achieve them, and feel rewarded when you do. Writing down your goals and breaking down each huge, long-term goal into smaller more practical ones can help make it feel more real, and writing out a plan for achieving it can give you a roadmap to success. Interpersonal skills At college, you will interact with fellow students, professors, librarians, and many others. Strong interpersonal skills will help you build relationships during this time, and get more out of them. If you feel that your interpersonal skills need some work, practice asking thoughtful questions and listening closely, develop your understanding by putting yourself in someone else’s shoes, and enhance your self-confidence. Studying With fewer in-class hours and more on-your-own learning, you’re required to really digest learning material rather than simply memorize facts. To be successful in college you’ll need to learn how to integrate large amounts of information obtained through reading, do research, and write papers. Organization is the key, so if you are not someone who is naturally organized, set up your study schedule. Budgeting Managing money is a critical life skill, and for many, it is at college that they develop it for the first time. Start by estimating your financial balance. Then give high priority to the expenses on basic needs and determine how much money to set aside every month to cover those costs. Don’t forget about savings…and the fun stuff(movies, dinners out), too. 51. Who is this passage most probably written for? A. College teachers. B. University graduates. C. High school teachers. D. Would-be college students. 52. What is the author’s suggestion for reaching a huge goal? A. Divide it into smaller, more achievable ones. B. Reward oneself for each goal one has set. C. Purchase a clear, updated roadmap. D. Push oneself to an upper level. 53. One of the suggested ways to enhance your interpersonal skills is to ________. A. prepare complicated questions B. try on someone else’s shoes C. listen to others carefully D. take advantage of others 54. What is the key to successful college study according to the author? A. Being well-organized. B. Being well-informed. C. Effective reading skills. D. Reliable research methods. 55. To learn how to manage money, the first thing to do is________. A. save money for financial investment B. estimate one’s income and expenses C. set aside money for fun activities D. open a personal bank account B I work at Pearson, the largest and busiest airport in Canada. I am one of the faces of Toronto that welcome millions of air travellers from all over the world. My daily work is helping connecting (转乘) passengers, for example, answering their questions about the boarding gate or departure time. After a long non-stop flight, these passengers are tired and hungry. They need coffee, breakfast and a lounge (候机室) instead of confusion as they wait anxiously to get their luggage and board their next flights. My job is to keep them calm and informed. Emotions can run high and the lounge is like a pressure cooker. Of course, connecting passengers don’t want to miss their flights. They are usually in a hurry. They are stressed out. You see, a lot of them are travelling for pleasure and going to places like Miami Beach and Yellowstone Park. But now they are out of breath and sweating. Some shout angrily, some are even in tears. They don’t seem to be having any fun at all. That is when it is time for empathy. We put ourselves in the passengers’ shoes and help them as much as we can. If we see the elderly trying to catch their planes but walking at a snail’s pace, we find a wheelchair for them immediately. When a plane is leaving in 15 minutes and the door is closing, what else can we suggest but: “ Run! Run!” A few times, I have run with passengers to their boarding gate. It’s a race against time. Since passengers are just passing through, our interactions are brief. I say “Ni hao” to the Chinese and “Hola” to the Spanish. A simple greeting in their mother tongue can guarantee a smile from a total stranger and a tired traveller. Once, a young woman, who was on her way to visit her family in South Africa, told me she was expecting her first baby. I offered my congratulations and good luck. To all, I wish a pleasant trip, to groups off for a family wedding in Singapore, to seniors travelling to Rome for holiday, to children off to Disney World in Orlando … the airport is not a dull place. All kinds of human emotions are on display: sad (tearful goodbyes), happy (family get-togethers), anxious (waiting in a long line) and upset (missing a flight). Sometimes I think no matter where we come from, what colour our eyes, hair and skin, we are here to show our understanding and help. We are family. 56. What does the author’s job involve? A. Cleaning the lounge. B. Helping book hotels. C. Providing information. D. Selling food and drinks. 57. The lounge is like a pressure cooker because connecting passengers ________ . A. are under social pressure B. are anxious about missing their flights C. are pleased with the airport staff D. are in high spirits after their journeys 58. What does the underlined word “empathy”in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Understanding others’feelings. B. Following the passengers’steps. C. Recalling the memories of the trips. D. Avoiding giving unwise suggestions. 59. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4? A. A smile is no guarantee of quality service. B. Kindness does not always pay off. C. Friendly interactions light up the day. D. Travellers need to know a second language. 60. The author says “the airport is not a dull place” because at the airport ________. A. family relations are strengthened B. customs of the world are on display C. there are recreational facilities for children D. moments of people’s life are experienced C The question, “What do elephants and fish have in common?” may sound strange but researchers have found that they both have a feature not observed in any other creature. A team at Georgia Institute of Technology has discovered that elephants use a special form of air suction (吸力) in their trunks to pick up food and handle delicate objects. Animals using suction to handle objects are typically found in water. Many fish perform suction feeding that requires specialised body parts to quickly generate air pressure that can draw nearby food into their mouths. The researchers have found that an elephant could do the same thanks to its huge nostrils (鼻孔) and lung capacity. The radius (半径) of an elephant’s nostrils can increase by up to 30%, and the volume of air that it can push through its trunk increases by 64%. This allows it to take in air at 30 times the speed of a human sneeze, enabling it to drink 3L of water a second. In an experiment at Atlanta zoo, the researchers looked at how an elephant would pick up a small crispy (酥脆的) pancake, which was only 0.5 mm thick. The force required to break the pancake was less than 1% of the trunk’s weight (about 100kg). The elephant was found to either use suction at a fixed distance from the pancake to “raise” the object in the air and hold it, or gently press the tip of its trunk against the pancake and apply suction to pick it up. At no time during the experiment did the elephant break the pancake. The researchers believe that the findings could help technology companies develop better machines that use air to do their jobs, as suction has long been used in robotics to grab objects.The fascinating part of the study for robotics is that elephants can use air suction both on ground and in water. The researchers are so impressed that they suggest the elephant’s suction technique could help improve robotics technology. Nature never ceases to surprise. Indeed, it is thought that over four-fifths of living species on earth remain undiscovered. That is a reminder of how little we know of our planet, and that we are not the only creatures with hidden complexities. 61. According to the researchers, what is the ability shared by both elephants and fish? A. Surviving low air pressure. B. Using air suction technique. C. Observing other creatures. D. Adapting to new environments. 62. Which of the following is TRUE about an elephant according to Paragraph 3? A. It drinks water 30 times faster than man. B. It lets out 64% more air when sneezing. C. Its lung capacity is smaller than we think. D. Its nostrils can get 30% bigger in radius. 63. What can be learned about an elephant’s trunk in the experiment? A. Its tip can sense the thickness of objects. B. Its weight affects its movement. C. It breaks the food before holding it. D. It picks up delicate objects in different ways. 64. The research findings may contribute to the development of________. A. underwater robots B. nature reserves C. transport vehicles D. fish farming 65. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage? A. To promote a new technology. B. To recommend a research team. C. To introduce a scientific discovery. D. To explain a historical phenomenon. D Ralph Emerson once said that the purpose of life is not to be happy, but to be useful, to be loving, to make some difference in he world. While we appreciate such words of wisdom, we rarely try to follow them in our lives. Most people prefer to live a good life themselves, ignoring their responsibilities for the world. This narrow perception of a good life may provide short-term benefits, but is sure to lead to long-term harm and suffering. A good life based on comfort and luxury may eventually lead to more pain because we spoil our health and even our character, principles, ideals, and relationships. What then, is the secret of a good life? A good life is a process, not a state of being : a direction, not a destination. We have to earn a good life by first serving others without any expectation in return because their happiness is the very source of our own happiness. More importantly, we must know ourselves inside out. Only when we examine ourselves deeply can we discover our abilities and recognize our limitations, and then work accordingly to create a better world. The first requirement for a good life is having a loving heart. When we do certain right things merely as a duty, we find our job so tiresome that we’ll soon burn out. However, when we do that same job out of love, we not only enjoy what we do, but also do it with an effortless feeling. However, love alone is insufficient to lead a good life. Love sometimes blinds us to the reality. Consequently, our good intentions may not lead to good results. To achieve desired outcome, those who want to do good to others also need to equip themselves with accurate world knowledge. False knowledge is more dangerous than ignorance. If love is the engine of a car, knowledge is the steering wheel(方向盘). If the engine lacks power, the car can’t move; if the driver loses control of the steering, a road accident probably occurs. Only with love in heart and the right knowledge in mind can we lead a good life. With love and knowledge, we go all out to create a better world by doing good to others. When we see the impact of our good work on the world, we give meaning to our life and earn lasting joy and happiness. 66. What effect does the narrow perception of a good life have on us? A. Making us simple-minded B. Making us short-sighted. C. Leading us onto a busy road. D. Keeping us from comfort and luxury. 67. According to the author, how can one gain true happiness? A. Through maintaining good health. B. By going through pain and suffering. C. By recognizing one’s abilities and limitations. D. Through offering help much needed by others. 68. According to Paragraph 4, doing certain right things with a loving heart makes one________. A. less selfish B. less annoying C. more motivated D. more responsible 69. In what case may good intentions fail to lead to desired results? A. When we have wrong knowledge of the world. B. When our love for the world is insufficient. C. When we are insensitive to dangers in life. D. When we stay blind to the reality. 70. According to Paragraph 5, life can be made truly good when ________. A. inspired by love and guided by knowledge B. directed by love and pushed by knowledge C. purified by love and enriched by knowledge D. promoted by love and defined by knowledge 第Ⅱ卷(共 35 分) 第四部分：写作 第一节：阅读表达(每题 2 分，共 10 分) 阅读表达 It was a dark and stormy night. The ferocious wind shook the windows wildly, as though someone outside were beating on the glass. It was also New Year’s Eve. We were having our annual party and had a house full of people just starting to celebrate. Suddenly, we heard loud explosions. Looking outside and up into the hills, we saw sparks(火花) flying from electrical transformers(变压器). One area after another went dark up in those hills. Then there was the loudest explosion of them all and our house went dark too. I tried to find every candle we had and lit them. The candles made everything look lovely. But we had problems. We had fifteen people standing around and we still had to cook dinner. How would we do that without electricity? The barbecue! Why not cook on the barbecue? We men went outside, some holding flashlights and others cooking. We did a wonderful job. The women stayed inside and got the salads ready. Everything was delicious. There were still a few hours to go before the beginning of the new year, so we all sat around the dining room table and sang up until a few minutes before midnight. We couldn’t watch the ball drop in Times Square on television but that wouldn’t stop us from celebrating. I stood on a chair and, with the help of someone’s watch to tell us the time, we all counted down and I dropped a tennis ball! We all screamed Happy New Year. We didn’t need electricity for that! Nowadays, we still get together with the same group to celebrate the New Year and we still talk about that special night. I don’t think we have ever laughed so much as we did on that New Year’s Eve. 71. What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph 1? (1 word) ____________________________________________________________ 72. What made dinner preparation difficult according to Paragraph 2? (no more than 6 words) ____________________________________________________________ 73. How did the people celebrate on New Year’s Eve according to the passage? (no more than 10 words) ____________________________________________________________ 74. How does the author feel about that particular New Year’s Eve?

For most students, it’s the first time they’re living away from home and managing their own life. Not surprisingly, adapting to this new lifestyle can be challenging. The following four tips will make high school graduates better prepared for college life. Goal setting When setting goals, whether they’re academic, career, or personal, re-member they should be attainable but not too easy, so that you really have to push yourself to achieve them, and feel rewarded when you do. Writing down your goals and breaking down each huge, long-term goal into smaller more practical ones can help make it feel more real, and writing out a plan for achieving it can give you a roadmap to success. Interpersonal skills At college, you will interact with fellow students, professors, librarians, and many others. Strong interpersonal skills will help you build relationships during this time, and get more out of them. If you feel that your interpersonal skills need some work, practice asking thoughtful questions and listening closely, develop your understanding by putting yourself in someone else’s shoes, and enhance your self-confidence. Studying With fewer in-class hours and more on-your-own learning, you’re required to really digest learning material rather than simply memorize facts. To be successful in college you’ll need to learn how to integrate large amounts of information obtained through reading, do research, and write papers. Organization is the key, so if you are not someone who is naturally organized, set up your study schedule. Budgeting Managing money is a critical life skill, and for many, it is at college that they develop it for the first time. Start by estimating your financial balance.

I am one of the faces of Toronto that welcome millions of air travellers from all over the world. My daily work is helping connecting (转乘) passengers, for example, answering their questions about the boarding gate or departure time. After a long non-stop flight, these passengers are tired and hungry. They need coffee, breakfast and a lounge (候机室) instead of confusion as they wait anxiously to get their luggage and board their next flights. My job is to keep them calm and informed. Emotions can run high and the lounge is like a pressure cooker. Of course, connecting passengers don’t want to miss their flights. They are usually in a hurry. They are stressed out. You see, a lot of them are travelling for pleasure and going to places like Miami Beach and Yellowstone Park. But now they are out of breath and sweating. Some shout angrily, some are even in tears. They don’t seem to be having any fun at all. That is when it is time for empathy. We put ourselves in the passengers’ shoes and help them as much as we can. If we see the elderly trying to catch their planes but walking at a snail’s pace, we find a wheelchair for them immediately. When a plane is leaving in 15 minutes and the door is closing, what else can we suggest but: “ Run! Run!” A few times, I have run with passengers to their boarding gate. It’s a race against time. Since passengers are just passing through, our interactions are brief. I say “Ni hao” to the Chinese and “Hola” to the Spanish. A simple greeting in their mother tongue can guarantee a smile from a total stranger and a tired traveller. Once, a young woman, who was on her way to visit her family in South Africa, told me she was expecting her first baby. I offered my congratulations and good luck. To all, I wish a pleasant trip, to groups off for a family wedding in Singapore, to seniors travelling to Rome for holiday, to children off to Disney World in Orlando … the airport is not a dull place. All kinds of human emotions are on display: sad (tearful goodbyes), happy (family get-togethers), anxious (waiting in a long line) and upset (missing a flight). Sometimes I think no matter where we come from, what colour our eyes, hair and skin, we are here to show our understanding and help. We are family. 56. What does the author’s job involve? A. Cleaning the lounge. B. Helping book hotels. C. Providing information. D. Selling food and drinks. 57. The lounge is like a pressure cooker because connecting passengers ________ . A. are under social pressure B. are anxious about missing their flights C. are pleased with the airport staff D. are in high spirits after their journeys 58. What does the underlined word “empathy”in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Understanding others’feelings. B. Following the passengers’steps. C. Recalling the memories of the trips. D. Avoiding giving unwise suggestions. 59. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4? A. A smile is no guarantee of quality service. B. Kindness does not always pay off. C. Friendly interactions light up the day. D. Travellers need to know a second language. 60. The author says “the airport is not a dull place” because at the airport ________. A. family relations are strengthened B. customs of the world are on display C. there are recreational facilities for children D. moments of people’s life are experienced 【答案】56. C 57. B 58. A 59. C 60. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要描述了作者作为一个机场工作人员的日常工作以及对这份工作的一些感悟。 【56题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“My job is to keep them calm and informed.(我的工作是让他们保持冷静和知情)”可知，作者的工作包括提供信息。故选C。 【57题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Emotions can run high and the lounge is like a pressure cooker. Of course, connecting passengers don’t want to miss their flights. They are usually in a hurry. They are stressed out. (情绪可能会高涨，休息室就像一个高压锅。当然，转机乘客不想错过他们的航班。他们通常都很匆忙。他们压力很大)”可知，休息室就像一个高压锅，因为转机的乘客担心错过航班。故选B。 【58题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“We put ourselves in the passengers’ shoes and help them as much as we can.(我们设身处地为乘客着想，尽我们所能帮助他们)”可知，及下文中作者就乘客的具体困难提供相关帮助的细节，可知，作者他们能够理解乘客的感受，所以尽力提供帮助，故划线词意思是“理解他人的感受”。故选A。 【59题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“I say “Ni hao” to the Chinese and “Hola” to the Spanish. A simple greeting in their mother tongue can guarantee a smile from a total stranger and a tired traveller. Once, a young woman, who was on her way to visit her family in South Africa, told me she was expecting her first baby. I offered my congratulations and good luck.(我对中国人说“你好”，对西班牙人说“你好”。一个简单的母语问候可以保证一个陌生人和一个疲惫的旅行者微笑。有一次，一位年轻女性在去南非看望家人的路上告诉我，她即将迎来她的第一个孩子。我表示祝贺并祝你好运)”可知，友好的互动点亮了这一天。故选C。 【60题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“To all, I wish a pleasant trip, to groups off for a family wedding in Singapore, to seniors travelling to Rome for holiday, to children off to Disney World in Orlando … the airport is not a dull place. All kinds of human emotions are on display: sad (tearful goodbyes), happy (family get-togethers), anxious (waiting in a long line) and upset (missing a flight). Sometimes I think no matter where we come from, what colour our eyes, hair and skin, we are here to show our understanding and help. We are family.(祝大家旅途愉快，祝大家去新加坡参加家庭婚礼，祝老年人去罗马度假，祝孩子们去奥兰多的迪斯尼乐园……机场不是一个沉闷的地方。人类的各种情绪都在展示：悲伤（含泪告别）、快乐（家人团聚）、焦虑（排队等候）和不安（错过航班）。有时我想，无论我们来自哪里，无论我们的眼睛、头发和皮肤是什么颜色，我们都应该在这里表达我们的理解和帮助。我们是一家人)”可知，作者说，“机场不是一个沉闷的地方”，因为机场是一个见证人们各种情感的地方。故选D。 C The question, “What do elephants and fish have in common?” may sound strange but researchers have found that they both have a feature not observed in any other creature. A team at Georgia Institute of Technology has discovered that elephants use a special form of air suction (吸力) in their trunks to pick up food and handle delicate objects. Animals using suction to handle objects are typically found in water. Many fish perform suction feeding that requires specialised body parts to quickly generate air pressure that can draw nearby food into their mouths. The researchers have found that an elephant could do the same thanks to its huge nostrils (鼻孔) and lung capacity. The radius (半径) of an elephant’s nostrils can increase by up to 30%, and the volume of air that it can push through its trunk increases by 64%. This allows it to take in air at 30 times the speed of a human sneeze, enabling it to drink 3L of water a second. In an experiment at Atlanta zoo, the researchers looked at how an elephant would pick up a small crispy (酥脆的) pancake, which was only 0.5 mm thick. The force required to break the pancake was less than 1% of the trunk’s weight (about 100kg). The elephant was found to either use suction at a fixed distance from the pancake to “raise” the object in the air and hold it, or gently press the tip of its trunk against the pancake and apply suction to pick it up. At no time during the experiment did the elephant break the pancake. The researchers believe that the findings could help technology companies develop better machines that use air to do their jobs, as suction has long been used in robotics to grab objects.The fascinating part of the study for robotics is that elephants can use air suction both on ground and in water. The researchers are so impressed that they suggest the elephant’s suction technique could help improve robotics technology. Nature never ceases to surprise. Indeed, it is thought that over four-fifths of living species on earth remain undiscovered. That is a reminder of how little we know of our planet, and that we are not the only creatures with hidden complexities. 61. According to the researchers, what is the ability shared by both elephants and fish? A. Surviving low air pressure. B. Using air suction technique. C. Observing other creatures. D. Adapting to new environments. 62. Which of the following is TRUE about an elephant according to Paragraph 3? A. It drinks water 30 times faster than man. B. It lets out 64% more air when sneezing. C. Its lung capacity is smaller than we think. D. Its nostrils can get 30% bigger in radius. 63. What can be learned about an elephant’s trunk in the experiment? A. Its tip can sense the thickness of objects. B. Its weight affects its movement. C. It breaks the food before holding it. D. It picks up delicate objects in different ways. 64. The research findings may contribute to the development of________. A. underwater robots B. nature reserves C. transport vehicles D. fish farming 65. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage? A. To promote a new technology. B. To recommend a research team. C. To introduce a scientific discovery. D. To explain a historical phenomenon. 【答案】61. B 62. D 63. D 64. A 65. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项科学发现：大象可以用吸力处理轻小物体，且大象的吸力技术可以帮助改进机器人技术。 【61题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“A team at Georgia Institute of Technology has discovered that elephants use a special form of air suction (吸力) in their trunks to pick up food and handle delicate objects. (佐治亚理工学院的一个研究团队发现，大象利用其长鼻的一种特殊吸气方式来获取食物和处理精细物品。) ”和“Many fish perform suction feeding that requires specialised body parts to quickly generate air pressure that can draw nearby food into their mouths. (许多鱼类进行吸吮，这需要专门的身体部位来快速产生气压，从而将附近的食物吸入嘴里。) ”可知，大象和鱼一样拥有使用吸力的技能。故选B项。 【62题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The radius (半径) of an elephant’s nostrils can increase by up to 30%, and the volume of air that it can push through its trunk increases by 64%. (大象鼻孔的半径可以增加30%，通过象鼻的空气量可以增加64%。) ”可知，大象鼻孔的半径可以增加30%，同时通过鼻子的空气量可以增加64%。故选D项。 【63题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The elephant was found to either use suction at a fixed distance from the pancake to “raise” the object in the air and hold it, or gently press the tip of its trunk against the pancake and apply suction to pick it up. (研究发现，大象要么在距离煎饼固定距离处使用吸力将物体“举起”在空中并握住，要么轻轻地将象鼻尖端压在煎饼上并施加吸力将其捡起。) ”可知，大象可以用不同的方式拾取精致的物体。故选D项。 【64题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The researchers believe that the findings could help technology companies develop better machines that use air to do their jobs, as suction has long been used in robotics to grab objects.The fascinating part of the study for robotics is that elephants can use air suction both on ground and in water. The researchers are so impressed that they suggest the elephant’s suction technique could help improve robotics technology. (研究人员认为，这些发现可以帮助科技公司开发出更好的机器，利用空气来完成工作，因为吸力长期以来一直被用于机器人抓取物体。这项机器人研究的有趣之处在于，大象可以在地面和水中使用空气吸力。研究人员对此印象深刻，他们认为大象的抽吸技术可以帮助改进机器人技术。) ”可知，这项研究可能有助于水下机器人的发展。故选A项。 【65题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“A team at Georgia Institute of Technology has discovered that elephants use a special form of air suction (吸力) in their trunks to pick up food and handle delicate objects. Animals using suction to handle objects are typically found in water. Many fish perform suction feeding that requires specialised body parts to quickly generate air pressure that can draw nearby food into their mouths. (佐治亚理工学院的一个团队发现，大象在树干中使用一种特殊形式的空气吸力来拾取食物和处理精致的物体。使用吸力处理物体的动物通常在水中。许多鱼类进行吸吮，这需要专门的身体部位来快速产生气压，从而将附近的食物吸入嘴里。) ”可知，本文主要介绍了一项研究结论：大象能通过吸力用鼻子抓取轻小物体。由此可推断作者的写作目的是介绍一项科学发现。故选C项。 D Ralph Emerson once said that the purpose of life is not to be happy, but to be useful, to be loving, to make some difference in he world. While we appreciate such words of wisdom, we rarely try to follow them in our lives. Most people prefer to live a good life themselves, ignoring their responsibilities for the world. This narrow perception of a good life may provide short-term benefits, but is sure to lead to long-term harm and suffering. A good life based on comfort and luxury may eventually lead to more pain because we spoil our health and even our character, principles, ideals, and relationships. What then, is the secret of a good life? A good life is a process, not a state of being : a direction, not a destination. We have to earn a good life by first serving others without any expectation in return because their happiness is the very source of our own happiness. More importantly, we must know ourselves inside out. Only when we examine ourselves deeply can we discover our abilities and recognize our limitations, and then work accordingly to create a better world. The first requirement for a good life is having a loving heart. When we do certain right things merely as a duty, we find our job so tiresome that we’ll soon burn out. However, when we do that same job out of love, we not only enjoy what we do, but also do it with an effortless feeling. However, love alone is insufficient to lead a good life. Love sometimes blinds us to the reality. Consequently, our good intentions may not lead to good results. To achieve desired outcome, those who want to do good to others also need to equip themselves with accurate world knowledge. False knowledge is more dangerous than ignorance. If love is the engine of a car, knowledge is the steering wheel(方向盘). If the engine lacks power, the car can’t move; if the driver loses control of the steering, a road accident probably occurs. Only with love in heart and the right knowledge in mind can we lead a good life. With love and knowledge, we go all out to create a better world by doing good to others. When we see the impact of our good work on the world, we give meaning to our life and earn lasting joy and happiness. 66. What effect does the narrow perception of a good life have on us? A. Making us simple-minded B. Making us short-sighted. C. Leading us onto a busy road. D. Keeping us from comfort and luxury. 67. According to the author, how can one gain true happiness? A. Through maintaining good health. B. By going through pain and suffering. C. By recognizing one’s abilities and limitations. D. Through offering help much needed by others. 68. According to Paragraph 4, doing certain right things with a loving heart makes one________. A. less selfish B. less annoying C. more motivated D. more responsible 69. In what case may good intentions fail to lead to desired results? A. When we have wrong knowledge of the world. B. When our love for the world is insufficient. C. When we are insensitive to dangers in life. D. When we stay blind to the reality. 70. According to Paragraph 5, life can be made truly good when ________. A. inspired by love and guided by knowledge B. directed by love and pushed by knowledge C. purified by love and enriched by knowledge D. promoted by love and defined by knowledge 【答案】66. B 67. D 68. C 69. A 70. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了美好生活的秘诀是什么。人生的目的不是生而快乐，而是生而有益。 【66题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“This narrow perception of a good life may provide short-term benefits, but is sure to lead to long-term harm and suffering.(这种对美好生活的狭隘看法可能会带来短期的好处，但肯定会导致长期的伤害和痛苦。)”可知，对美好生活的狭隘看法只能给我们带来短期的好处，所以时间长了会让我们目光短浅、短视。故选B项。 【67题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“We have to earn a good life by first serving others without any expectation in return because their happiness is the very source of our own happiness.(我们必须先为他人服务而不求回报，因为他人的幸福是我们自己幸福的源泉。)”可知，我们能够从帮助他人获得真正的幸福。故选D项。 【68题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“However, when we do that same job out of love, we not only enjoy what we do, but also do it with an effortless feeling.(然而，当我们出于热爱做同样的工作时，我们不仅享受我们做的事情，而且也享受那种毫不费力的感觉。)”可知，带着热爱去做事会让人更加享受做这件事情；越享受做某件事，做事越有动力。故选C项。 【69题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“False knowledge is more dangerous than ignorance.(虚假的知识比无知更危险。)”可以推测出，当我们对世界有错误的认识的时候，就算意图良好，也可能导致不好的、违背预期的结局。故选A项。 【70题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“With love and knowledge, we go all out to create a better world by doing good to others.(带着爱和知识，我们全力以赴，通过对他人做好事来创造一个更美好的世界。)”可知，有爱和知识，生活就会变得更美好。故选A项。 第Ⅱ卷(共 35 分) 第四部分：写作 第一节：阅读表达(每题 2 分，共 10 分) 阅读表达 It was a dark and stormy night. The ferocious wind shook the windows wildly, as though someone outside were beating on the glass. It was also New Year’s Eve. We were having our annual party and had a house full of people just starting to celebrate. Suddenly, we heard loud explosions. Looking outside and up into the hills, we saw sparks(火花) flying from electrical transformers(变压器). One area after another went dark up in those hills. Then there was the loudest explosion of them all and our house went dark too. I tried to find every candle we had and lit them. The candles made everything look lovely. But we had problems. We had fifteen people standing around and we still had to cook dinner. How would we do that without electricity? The barbecue! Why not cook on the barbecue? We men went outside, some holding flashlights and others cooking. We did a wonderful job. The women stayed inside and got the salads ready. Everything was delicious. There were still a few hours to go before the beginning of the new year, so we all sat around the dining room table and sang up until a few minutes before midnight. We couldn’t watch the ball drop in Times Square on television but that wouldn’t stop us from celebrating. I stood on a chair and, with the help of someone’s watch to tell us the time, we all counted down and I dropped a tennis ball! We all screamed Happy New Year. We didn’t need electricity for that! Nowadays, we still get together with the same group to celebrate the New Year and we still talk about that special night. I don’t think we have ever laughed so much as we did on that New Year’s Eve. 71. What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph 1? (1 word) ____________________________________________________________ 72. What made dinner preparation difficult according to Paragraph 2? (no more than 6 words) ____________________________________________________________ 73. How did the people celebrate on New Year’s Eve according to the passage? (no more than 10 words) ____________________________________________________________ 74. How does the author feel about that particular New Year’s Eve? (no more than 8 words) ____________________________________________________________ 75. What do you think is the most necessary quality when dealing with an unexpected difficult situation? Please explain why. (no more than 25words) ____________________________________________________________ 【答案】71. Fierce./ Strong./ Violent. 72. No electricity./ The power failure./ There was no electricity./ Electricity was gone. 73. They cooked on the barbecue, sang, and counted down./ By cooking on the barbecue, singing, and counting down. 74. It was the most exciting one./ It was a night filled with laughter./ It was special./ Exciting./ Pleasant./ Unforgettable./ Joyful./ Different./ Memorable./ Unique. 75. It is courage, for it gives us strength, which enables us to deal with difficulties. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要记叙了作者经历过的一个突发事故，新年夜变压器爆炸，十五个朋友面面相觑，没有电还需要做年夜饭，但作者和朋友一起努力，度过了一个美好的新年夜。 【71题详解】 考查词义猜测。根据文章第一段“The ferocious wind shook the windows wildly, as though someone outside were beating on the glass.(狂风猛烈地摇动着窗户，好像外面有人在敲打着玻璃。)”，结合常识可知，风肯定很大才会像窗外有人敲打着玻璃；形容风特别大可以用形容词fierce“猛的”、strong“强的”或violent“暴力的”。故答案为Fierce./ Strong./ Violent。 【72题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第二段“We had fifteen people standing around and we still had to cook dinner. How would we do that without electricity?(我们有15个人站着，我们还得做晚饭。没有电，我们要怎么办呢？)” 可知当时有15个人共同准备迎接新年，如何在断电的情况下准备这么多人的晚餐，变得很困难。故答案为No electricity./ The power failure./ There was no electricity./ Electricity was gone.。 【73题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第三段“Why not cook on the barbecue?(为什么不在烧烤架上做呢)”、“so we all sat around the dining room table and sang up until a few minutes before midnight.(所以我们都坐在餐厅的桌子旁，一直唱到午夜前几分钟。)”和“we all counted down and I dropped a tennis ball!(我们都开始倒数，然后我掉了一个网球！)” 可知，大家在烧烤架上做了饭、唱了歌，也做了新年倒数。故答案为They cooked on the barbecue, sang, and counted down./ By cooking on the barbecue, singing, and counting down.。 【74题详解】 考查推理判断。根据文章第四段“Nowadays, we still get together with the same group to celebrate the New Year and we still talk about that special night. I don’t think we have ever laughed so much as we did on that New Year’s Eve. (现在，我们仍然聚在一起庆祝新年，我们仍然谈论那个特别的夜晚。我想我们从来没有像那个新年前夜那样笑得那么开心过。)”可知，作者认为那一夜是特别的，是充满欢笑的。故答案为It was the most exciting one./ It was a night filled with laughter./ It was special./ Exciting./ Pleasant./ Unforgettable./ Joyful./ Different./ Memorable./ Unique.。 【75题详解】 考查推理判断。本题要求考生基于对篇章整体内容的理解，对青年人面对突发事件应如何面对给出自己的想法，为开放性试题。故参考答案为：It is courage, for it gives us strength, which enables us to deal with difficulties. 第二节：书面表达(共 25 分) 76. 假设你是晨光中学的李津，为弘扬中国传统文化，学校学生会将举行诗歌朗诵大赛(Poetry Recitation Contest)，鼓励国际部(the International Department)的留学生们积极参加。Mike 对此次活动非常感兴趣，向你询问具体情况，请你写一封邮件介绍本次活动并邀请他参赛。 内容要点： 1. 比赛时间和地点：12 月 18 日下午 3:00 - 5:00，学校报告厅； 2. 建议：提前了解相关知识，做好准备； 3. 奖品：参赛者每人一本《唐诗宋词一百首》(100 Tang Poems and Song Lyrics)。 注意：1. 词数不少于 100。 2. 可适当增加细节。 3. 开头已给出，不计入总词数。 参考词汇：报告厅：lecture hall Dear Mike, Here comes the best news! ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Jin 【答案】Dear Mike, Here comes the best news!
