It was initially a radio comedy broadcast on BBC Radio 4. It is extremely funny and inventive, and has a very British sense of humor, whose true meanings foreign readers can hardly make out though it has been translated into French and Italian and so on. But when I read it I feel a strong connection to my home. It was published in paperback by Pan Books, after BBC Publishing had turned down the offer of publishing a novelization, an action they later regretted. The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett Have you ever read a description of a landscape or countryside that made you feel like you were actually there? For me, this book does exactly that. It is about a young girl who is taken to live in a big house in my hometown and discovers a secret garden. Daddy-Long-Legs by Jean Webster This book takes the form of a series of letters, and follows the story of a young orphan(孤儿), Judy, as she goes to university and discovers a whole world of new experiences. This book always reminds me of my family, especially my mother, because she used to read it to me when I was ill in bed. The Railway Children by E. Nesbit This was one of my favorite books when I was younger, and for this reason it still strongly reminds me of England and my childhood. It is also set in Yorkshire where I was born and spent my childhood, and follows three children living next to a railway and their adventures. 1. What do we know about HG2G? A. It was based on true adventures. B. Its language is abstract and inventive. C. Its humor is hard for foreigners to understand. D. It was adapted for radio after being published. 2. Which books are set in the same place? A. Daddy-Long-Legs & HG2G. B. The Secret Garden & The Railway Children. C. The Secret Garden & HG2G. D. Daddy Long Legs & The Railway Children. 3. What do all the books have in common? A. They follow children’s adventures. B. They are British countryside series. C. They refer to the author’s childhood. D. They bring memories of home to the author. B Zondo a lawyer and human rights activist, was accompanied by her family as she discussed the process behind writing her memoir — Dearest MaRiky: A Mother’s Journey through Grief, Trauma and Healing. In her book, Zondo tells her story, the tragedy of losing her son, musician and rapper Rikhado “Riky Rick” Makhado. Speaking on the experience of launching her book, Zondo said she has found the process energising and fulfilling. “ I found myself energised by sitting like this, feeling a sense of community with people, sharing openly with people and feeling that I’m not alone in a warm way. Of course, there are times when I get home and I just curl up, but overall I’ve been energised,” Zondo said. Parts of Zondo’s memoir are formatted as letters to Riky Rick and according to her, the writing process has been a healing process and closure following the death of her son. Zondo said the letters in the memoir came from the fact that she had promised her son that she was going to write some letters to him and tell him about some parts of her life. According to the self-reflective mother, the details on life were matters Riky Rick was asking about in times that he was feeling troubled. He felt confused by the experience of having a mother who came home and then went straight to her room and locked it. “He felt that he was not wanted.” Zondo said. Zondo said the feedback she has received on the letters is that the writing has been a much needed thing. “ I got a lot of feedback from people who said thank you so much for writing …It made me feel like I could help somebody who is in a similar situation of being engulfed by deep sadness and grief and loss and pain and all of that,” Zondo said. The book is available at most bookshops around the country for R240. 4. What is the original purpose for Zondo to write her book? A. to keep her word to her son B. to help her community C. to share her story with people D. to give her energy and courage 5. What can we infer from paragragh 3? A. Zondo wrote the letters to Riky Rick before he died. B. Zondo explained in the letters why Ricy Rick died . C. Zondo felt guilty because she ignored Ricy Rick’s feelings. D. Zondo locked herself in the room after Ricy Rick’s death. 6. What does the underlined word “engulfed” in paragragh 2 from the bottom mean? A. moved B. overcome C. confused D. attracted 7. What is the purpose of this passage? A. to introduce a celebrity B. to discuss a problem C. to educate the public D. to promote a book C You’ve just finished a cup of coffee at your favorite cafe. Now you’re facing a trash bin, a recycling bin and a compost bin. What’s the most planet-friendly thing to do with your cup? Many of us would choose the recycling bin — but that’s often the wrong choice. In order to hold liquids, most paper coffee cups are made with a thin plastic lining, which makes separating these materials and recycling them difficult. In fact, the most sustainable option isn’t available at the trash bin. It happens earlier, before you’re handed a disposable (一次性的) cup in the first place. In two nationwide surveys in the U.S. that we conducted in October 2019 and March 2022, we found that people ignore waste reduction and reuse in favor of recycling. We call this tendency recycling preference and reduction ignoring. Our results show that a decades-long effort to educate the U.S. public about recycling has succeeded in some ways but failed in others. These efforts have made recycling an option that consumers see as important — but to the detriment (损害) of more sustainable options. Producing and disposing (处理) of goods is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions and a public health threat, especially for communities that receive large quantities of waste. New research suggests that even when plastic does get recycled, it produces enormous amounts of microplastic pollution. Experts and advocates widely agree that humans are generating waste worldwide at levels that are unmanageable and unsustainable. They have long recommended tackling the waste problem by prioritizing source reduction strategies that prevent the creation of waste in the first place, rather than seeking to manage and decrease its impact later. Creating items that can be recycled is better from a sustainability angle than burning them in an incinerator or burying them in a landfill, but it still consumes energy and resources. In contrast, reducing waste generation conserves natural resources and avoids other negative environmental impacts throughout a product’s life. 8 What is the main idea of Paragraph 2? A. The paper coffee cup should be reused. B. The recycling bin doesn’t live up to its name. C. The paper coffee cup can’t be recycled. D The recycling bin should be improved. 9. Why do people prefer recycling when tackling waste? A. They have no other choice about waste disposal. B. It is the most environmentally friendly way. C. The previous education misled them to. D. It is the easiest and most sustainable option. 10. Why is a recyclable product not the best choice? A. It will end up in a landfill. B. It will give off greenhouse gas. C. Energy and resources are needed to produce it. D. It produces a large amount of microplastic pollution. 11. What is the best strategy to deal with your waste? A. reduce B. reuse C. recycle D. reproduce D Global education company, Cengage, has launched a subscription service that will give students access to thousands of digital products, including eTextbooks, online learning platforms and study tools covering over 600 courses. Vice President and General Manager of International Higher Education at Cengage, Andrew Robinson, said that Cengage Unlimited is designed to address one of the major challenges facing higher education and one worsened by the crisis over the last two years, namely fair and equal access to learning materials. “Affordable and accessible course materials can make the difference between a student dropping out or completing their degree.” Robinson said. He explained that Cengage Unlimited for Institutions is not just another online learning offering — it is the only comprehensive service that includes access to everything a student needs to learn — eTextbooks, learning platforms, study tools, online homework and skill-building resources to develop employability skills. Subjects covered include accounting, science, maths, psychology and engineering, among many others. The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at University of Cape Town is using Cengage’s WebAssign, one of the platforms included in Cengage Unlimited for Institutions, to provide content, online study functionality, and efficient homework assigning and grading to a large Calculus course of 800 students. The platform is specifically designed for STEM subjects and provides course content, homework, tests and practice problems with instant assessment and has been shown to improve student grades. The Psychology Department at North-West University (NWU) used another of Cengage’s platforms, MindTap — also included in Cengage Unlimited, for their Introductory Psychology module to help a large group of students with their self-study and comprehension of key introductory concepts. MindTap is a fully customisable online teaching and assessment tool that includes videos, test banks, interactive study tools and access to eTextbooks. “The economic crisis over the last two years had major impacts for students and institutions alike. During this time, Cengage worked closely with its customers to support the transition to remote learning. Throughout the process, Cengage developed a deeper insight into the ways e-Learning can be supported,” Robinson said. 12. What is Cengage Unlimited aimed at? A. Helping the poor students complete the university education. B. Providing students with the same chance to get learning materials. C. Aiding the students dropping out to complete their degree. D. Addressing the major challenges worsened by the economic crisis. 13. How does Cengage Unlimited for Institutions differ from other platforms? A. Professional B. Interactive C. Customisable D. All-sided 14. If you are interested in people’s mind and behaviours, what platform is better? A. Cengage Unlimited B. MindTap C. Cengage’s WebAssign D. Cengage Unlimited for Institutions 15. What does Cengage feature, according to Robinson’s idea? A. It is a free company of digital products B. It is a global educational company. C. It offers customized e-education. D. It provides affordable education. 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。 It’s important to note that while having anxious attachment can sometimes make relationships difficult, you aren’t doomed to be unhappy in relationships. ____16____ and they are often highly in tune with their partner’s emotions.

They always played together and went home together. One day, Robert and Henry were going home from school, when, on turning a corner, Robert cried out, “A fight! Let's go and see!” “No,” said Henry. “Let us go quietly home and not meddle with (插手) this quarrel. We have nothing to do with it and may get into trouble. Also our parents are expecting to have dinner with us together at home and I don't want them to worry about me.” “You are a coward (懦夫), and afraid to go,” said Robert, and he ran. Henry went straight home and in the afternoon went to school as usual. But Robert had told all the boys that Henry was a coward, and they laughed at him a great deal. From then on, they looked down upon Henry and didn’t want to play with him together. Henry was sad but he wasn't angry with Robert for his rude behavior, because he learned that true courage is shown most in bearing misunderstanding when it was not deserved, and that he ought to be afraid of nothing but doing wrong. Thus, he just ignored (忽视) the other boys' laughter and continued to go to school and study as well. However, Robert didn't invite Henry to go home with him anymore. Instead, he had some other boys who also thought Henry was a coward. Everyday after school, they didn't go home directly but went to the river or somewhere to play games and had a lot of fun. A few days later, Robert was bathing with his new friends in a river, and got out of his depth. He struggled, and screamed for help, but all in vain. The boys who had called Henry a coward got out of the water as fast as they could, but they did not even try to help him. 注意： 1)所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2)续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1： Robert was fast sinking. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2： Thus, Robert’s life was saved. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 BACAC 6-10 CAABC 11-15 BCBAC 16-20 BBCAB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024—2025学年度上学期2022级 9月月考英语试卷 考试时间：2024年9月25日 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后,你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题;每小题1. 5分，满分7. 5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

D 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇应用文。作者主要介绍了四本他喜爱的书。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy这本书的介绍中的内容“has a very British sense of humor, whose true meanings foreign readers can hardly make out”可知，这本书的语言具有典型的英式幽默，外国读者很难理解其真正的含义。《银河系漫游指南》这本书中的幽默外国人很难理解。故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Secret Garden这本书的介绍中的“It is about a young girl who is taken to live in a big house in my hometown（它是关于一个年轻的女孩住在我家乡的一所大房子里的故事）”和The Railway Children这本书的介绍中的“It is also set in Yorkshire where I was born and spent my childhood（故事发生在我出生和度过童年的约克郡）”可知，这两本小说的故事均发生在文章作者的家乡，即英国的Yorkshire，故选B。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。作者对这四本书进行介绍的时候分别提及“when I read it I feel strong connection to my home（当我读到它的时候，我感到与我的家乡有强烈的联系）” “in my hometown（在我的家乡）” “This book always reminds me of my family, especially my mother（这本书总是让我想起我的家人，尤其是我的母亲）” “reminds me of England and my childhood（让我想起了英格兰和我的童年）”，由此可知，当作者读这些书的时候，它们的故事内容会让作者想起自己的家乡，故选D。 B Zondo, a lawyer and human rights activist, was accompanied by her family as she discussed the process behind writing her memoir — Dearest MaRiky: A Mother’s Journey through Grief, Trauma and Healing.

According to the self-reflective mother, the details on life were matters Riky Rick was asking about in times that he was feeling troubled. He felt confused by the experience of having a mother who came home and then went straight to her room and locked it. “He felt that he was not wanted.” Zondo said. Zondo said the feedback she has received on the letters is that the writing has been a much needed thing. “ I got a lot of feedback from people who said thank you so much for writing …It made me feel like I could help somebody who is in a similar situation of being engulfed by deep sadness and grief and loss and pain and all of that,” Zondo said. The book is available at most bookshops around the country for R240. 4. What is the original purpose for Zondo to write her book? A. to keep her word to her son B. to help her community C. to share her story with people D. to give her energy and courage 5. What can we infer from paragragh 3? A. Zondo wrote the letters to Riky Rick before he died. B. Zondo explained in the letters why Ricy Rick died . C. Zondo felt guilty because she ignored Ricy Rick’s feelings. D.

What is the purpose of this passage? A. to introduce a celebrity B. to discuss a problem C. to educate the public D. to promote a book 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文，文章主要讲述了Zondo写回忆录的过程以及该书的主要内容。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Zondo said the letters in the memoir came from the fact that she had promised her son that she was going to write some letters to him and tell him about some parts of her life.(Zondo说，回忆录中的信件来自于她向儿子承诺过的一个事实：她要给他写一些信，告诉他她生活中的一些事情)”可知，Zondo写书的最初目的是告诉儿子自己生活中的一些事情，故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“According to the self-reflective mother, the details on life were matters Riky Rick was asking about in times that he was feeling troubled. He felt confused by the experience of having a mother who came home and then went straight to her room and locked it. ‘He felt that he was not wanted.’ Zondo said.(据这位自我反思的母亲说，生活中的细节是Riky Rick在感到困扰时问的问题。有一个母亲回家，然后直接去她的房间，并把它锁起来，他对这样的经历感到困惑。‘他觉得自己不被需要。’Zondo说)”可知，Zondo反思自己的行为，她回到家后会直接回房间，并锁上门，这让儿子觉得自己不被需要，由此推知Zondo对于忽视了Ricy Rick的感受而感到内疚，故选C。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后“feeling a sense of community with people, sharing openly with people and feeling that I’m not alone in a warm way(感受到一种与人交往的感觉，与人坦诚地分享，感觉自己并不孤单，感觉很温暖)”可知，此处指坐着写书的经历对Zondo有很大影响，engulfed意为“受到……的极大影响”，故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“Zondo, a lawyer and human rights activist, was accompanied by her family as she discussed the process behind writing her memoir — Dearest MaRiky: A Mother’s Journey through Grief, Trauma and Healing.(Zondo是一名律师和人权活动家，在家人的陪同下，她讨论了撰写回忆录的过程——Dearest MaRiky: A Mother’s Journey through Grief, Trauma and Healing.)”和最后一段“The book is available at most bookshops around the country for R240.(这本书在全国大多数书店都能买到，售价240兰特)”可知，文章主要讲述Zondo写回忆录的过程以及该书的主要内容，故本文目的是推荐这本书，故选D。 C You’ve just finished a cup of coffee at your favorite cafe. Now you’re facing a trash bin, a recycling bin and a compost bin. What’s the most planet-friendly thing to do with your cup? Many of us would choose the recycling bin — but that’s often the wrong choice. In order to hold liquids, most paper coffee cups are made with a thin plastic lining, which makes separating these materials and recycling them difficult. In fact, the most sustainable option isn’t available at the trash bin. It happens earlier, before you’re handed a disposable (一次性的) cup in the first place. In two nationwide surveys in the U.S. that we conducted in October 2019 and March 2022, we found that people ignore waste reduction and reuse in favor of recycling. We call this tendency recycling preference and reduction ignoring. Our results show that a decades-long effort to educate the U.S. public about recycling has succeeded in some ways but failed in others. These efforts have made recycling an option that consumers see as important — but to the detriment (损害) of more sustainable options. Producing and disposing (处理) of goods is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions and a public health threat, especially for communities that receive large quantities of waste. New research suggests that even when plastic does get recycled, it produces enormous amounts of microplastic pollution. Experts and advocates widely agree that humans are generating waste worldwide at levels that are unmanageable and unsustainable. They have long recommended tackling the waste problem by prioritizing source reduction strategies that prevent the creation of waste in the first place, rather than seeking to manage and decrease its impact later. Creating items that can be recycled is better from a sustainability angle than burning them in an incinerator or burying them in a landfill, but it still consumes energy and resources. In contrast, reducing waste generation conserves natural resources and avoids other negative environmental impacts throughout a product’s life. 8. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2? A. The paper coffee cup should be reused. B. The recycling bin doesn’t live up to its name. C. The paper coffee cup can’t be recycled. D. The recycling bin should be improved. 9. Why do people prefer recycling when tackling waste? A. They have no other choice about waste disposal. B. It is the most environmentally friendly way. C. The previous education misled them to. D. It is the easiest and most sustainable option. 10. Why is a recyclable product not the best choice? A. It will end up in a landfill. B. It will give off greenhouse gas. C. Energy and resources are needed to produce it. D. It produces a large amount of microplastic pollution. 11. What is the best strategy to deal with your waste? A. reduce B. reuse C. recycle D. reproduce 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述人们在处理垃圾时倾向于选择回收利用，其实这不是最好的选择，相比之下，减少废物产生可以保护自然资源，并避免在产品的整个生命周期中对环境产生其他负面影响。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段内容，结合“Many of us would choose the recycling bin — but that’s often the wrong choice.(我们中的许多人会选择回收箱——但这通常是错误的选择)”以及“In fact, the most sustainable option isn’t available at the trash bin.(事实上，最可持续的选择并不是在垃圾桶里)”可知，许多人会选择回收箱，但其实这不是对地球最友好的方法，故本段主要讲述回收箱名不副实，故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Our results show that a decades-long effort to educate the U.S. public about recycling has succeeded in some ways but failed in others. These efforts have made recycling an option that consumers see as important — but to the detriment(损害) of more sustainable options.(我们的研究结果表明，数十年来教育美国公众回收利用的努力在某些方面取得了成功，但在其他方面却失败了。这些努力使回收成为消费者认为重要的选择，但不利于更可持续的选择)”可知，之前接受的教育误导了人们，使人们在处理垃圾时更倾向于回收利用，故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Creating items that can be recycled is better from a sustainability angle than burning them in an incinerator or burying them in a landfill, but it still consumes energy and resources.(从可持续发展的角度来看，生产可回收的物品比在焚化炉中燃烧或埋在垃圾填埋场要好，但它仍然消耗能源和资源)”可知，生产可回收产品仍然消耗能源和资源，所以这不是最好的选择，故选C。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“In two nationwide surveys in the U.S. that we conducted in October 2019 and March 2022, we found that people ignore waste reduction and reuse in favor of recycling.(我们于2019年10月和2022年3月在美国进行的两项全国性调查中，我们发现人们忽视了减少废物和再利用，而倾向于回收利用)”和最后一段中“In contrast, reducing waste generation conserves natural resources and avoids other negative environmental impacts throughout a product’s life.(相比之下，减少废物产生可以保护自然资源，并避免在产品的整个生命周期中对环境产生其他负面影响)”可知，处理废物最好的策略是减少废物的产生，故选A。 D Global education company, Cengage, has launched a subscription service that will give students access to thousands of digital products, including eTextbooks, online learning platforms and study tools covering over 600 courses. Vice President and General Manager of International Higher Education at Cengage, Andrew Robinson, said that Cengage Unlimited is designed to address one of the major challenges facing higher education and one worsened by the crisis over the last two years, namely fair and equal access to learning materials. “Affordable and accessible course materials can make the difference between a student dropping out or completing their degree.” Robinson said. He explained that Cengage Unlimited for Institutions is not just another online learning offering — it is the only comprehensive service that includes access to everything a student needs to learn — eTextbooks, learning platforms, study tools, online homework and skill-building resources to develop employability skills. Subjects covered include accounting, science, maths, psychology and engineering, among many others. The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at University of Cape Town is using Cengage’s WebAssign, one of the platforms included in Cengage Unlimited for Institutions, to provide content, online study functionality, and efficient homework assigning and grading to a large Calculus course of 800 students. The platform is specifically designed for STEM subjects and provides course content, homework, tests and practice problems with instant assessment and has been shown to improve student grades. The Psychology Department at North-West University (NWU) used another of Cengage’s platforms, MindTap — also included in Cengage Unlimited, for their Introductory Psychology module to help a large group of students with their self-study and comprehension of key introductory concepts. MindTap is a fully customisable online teaching and assessment tool that includes videos, test banks, interactive study tools and access to eTextbooks. “The economic crisis over the last two years had major impacts for students and institutions alike. During this time, Cengage worked closely with its customers to support the transition to remote learning. Throughout the process, Cengage developed a deeper insight into the ways e-Learning can be supported,” Robinson said. 12. What is Cengage Unlimited aimed at? A. Helping the poor students complete the university education. B. Providing students with the same chance to get learning materials. C. Aiding the students dropping out to complete their degree. D. Addressing the major challenges worsened by the economic crisis. 13. How does Cengage Unlimited for Institutions differ from other platforms? A. Professional B. Interactive C. Customisable D. All-sided 14. If you are interested in people’s mind and behaviours, what platform is better? A Cengage Unlimited B. MindTap C. Cengage’s WebAssign D. Cengage Unlimited for Institutions 15. What does Cengage feature, according to Robinson’s idea? A. It is a free company of digital products B. It is a global educational company. C It offers customized e-education. D. It provides affordable education. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文，文章主要介绍了全球教育公司Cengage提供的在线教育服务。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Vice President and General Manager of International Higher Education at Cengage, Andrew Robinson, said that Cengage Unlimited is designed to address one of the major challenges facing higher education and one worsened by the crisis over the last two years, namely fair and equal access to learning materials.(圣智国际高等教育副总裁兼总经理Andrew Robinson表示，Cengage Unlimited旨在解决高等教育面临的主要挑战之一，这一挑战在过去两年中因危机而恶化，即公平和平等地获得学习材料)”可知，Cengage Unlimited旨在为学生提供获取学习资料的同等机会，故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“He explained that Cengage Unlimited for Institutions is not just another online learning offering — it is the only comprehensive service that includes access to everything a student needs to learn — eTextbooks, learning platforms, study tools, online homework and skill-building resources to develop employability skills.(他解释说，Cengage Unlimited不仅仅是另一种在线学习服务，它是唯一一种综合服务，包括学生需要学习的一切——电子书、学习平台、学习工具、在线作业和技能培养资源，以培养就业技能)”可知，Cengage Unlimited与其他平台的不同之处在于它非常全面，故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The Psychology Department at North-West University (NWU) used another of Cengage’s platforms, MindTap — also included in Cengage Unlimited, for their Introductory Psychology module to help a large group of students with their self-study and comprehension of key introductory concepts.(西北大学心理学系(NWU)使用了Cengage的另一个平台MindTap——也包含在圣智无限中，作为他们的心理学入门模块，帮助一大群学生自学和理解关键的入门概念)”可知，研究人的心理和行为属于心理学范畴，如果对此感兴趣，选择MindTap平台更好，故选B。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中Robinson说的话“During this time, Cengage worked closely with its customers to support the transition to remote learning. Throughout the process, Cengage developed a deeper insight into the ways e-Learning can be supported(在此期间，Cengage与客户密切合作，支持向远程学习的过渡。在整个过程中，Cengage对支持电子学习的方式有了更深入的了解)”可知，Robinson认为Cengage的特色是提供定制的电子教育，故选B。 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。 It’s important to note that while having anxious attachment can sometimes make relationships difficult, you aren’t doomed to be unhappy in relationships. ____16____ and they are often highly in tune with their partner’s emotions.

It 44. bringing 45. to hold 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了河南非物质文化遗产——汴绣。 【36题详解】 考查时态和主谓一致。句意：早在一千年前的中国开封，就有一群人以他们独特的方式将艺术与美精致地呈现出来。根据时间状语“As early as a thousand years ago”可知，句子使用一般过去时，主语“a group of people”表示复数意义，be动词使用were，故填were。 【37题详解】 考查介词。句意：同上。表示“以……方式”，使常用介词in和way搭配，故填in。 【38题详解】 考查时态和主谓一致。句意：汴绣的特点是古朴典雅。结合“by simplicity and peace”可知，主语Bian embroidery和动词characterize之间是被动关系，且句子是描述一个事实，使用一般现在时的被动语态，主要表示单数意义，be动词使用is，故填is characterized。 【39题详解】 考查冠词。句意：它被认为是宋代独特的艺术形式。此处泛指“一种独特的艺术形式”，使用不定冠词修饰，且unique是以辅音音素开头，故填a。 【40题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：当一个绣工在工作时，她首先是“画”最虔诚的读者和解释者，然后是艺术家和创造者，用“针脚的语言”来表达它。空处引导定语从句，先行词是the artist and creator，指人，关系词在从句中作主语，使用关系代词who引导，故填who。 【41题详解】 考查形容词。句意：《清明上河图》第一卷的再创作是经验丰富的汴绣师长期观察原作、清明和相关物品的作品。空处应填形容词作定语，修饰名词Bian embroiderers，experienced“有经验的”，形容词，故填experienced。 【42题详解】 考查形容词。句意：同上。空处应填形容词作定语，修饰名词work，故填original。 【43题详解】 考查代词。句意：20多名绣工花了一年时间，夜以继日地完成了这一杰作。空处应填it作形式主语，后面的动词不定式是真正的主语，首字母应大写，故填It。 【44题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这一千年的古老工艺在今天仍然散发着它的魅力，带出了绘画的最佳质感。bring和逻辑主语The millennium-old craft之间是主谓关系，使用现在分词作状语，故填bringing。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：它可以成为我们珍惜财富。此处是“主语+谓语+宾语+to do”句型，不定式和宾语之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，句子的主语与动词不定式又有逻辑上的主谓关系，因此，用动词不定式的主动形式可以表示被动意义，故填to hod。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 46. 假定你是校报“English World”栏目的负责人李华，请给外教John写邮件约稿，请他在该栏目中给同学们一些关于提高英语写作能力的建议。内容包括： 1. 栏目介绍；2. 约稿的初衷和内容；3. 交稿日期。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear John, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】One possible version: Dear John, I’m Li Hua, who is in charge of the “English World” column of the school newspaper.

One day, Robert and Henry were going home from school, when, on turning a corner, Robert cried out, “A fight! Let's go and see!” “No,” said Henry. “Let us go quietly home and not meddle with (插手) this quarrel. We have nothing to do with it and may get into trouble. Also our parents are expecting to have dinner with us together at home and I don't want them to worry about me.” “You are a coward (懦夫), and afraid to go,” said Robert, and he ran. Henry went straight home and in the afternoon went to school as usual. But Robert had told all the boys that Henry was a coward, and they laughed at him a great deal. From then on, they looked down upon Henry and didn’t want to play with him together. Henry was sad but he wasn't angry with Robert for his rude behavior, because he learned that true courage is shown most in bearing misunderstanding when it was not deserved, and that he ought to be afraid of nothing but doing wrong. Thus, he just ignored (忽视) the other boys' laughter and continued to go to school and study as well. However, Robert didn't invite Henry to go home with him anymore. Instead, he had some other boys who also thought Henry was a coward. Everyday after school, they didn't go home directly but went to the river or somewhere to play games and had a lot of fun. A few days later, Robert was bathing with his new friends in a river, and got out of his depth. He struggled, and screamed for help, but all in vain. The boys who had called Henry a coward got out of the water as fast as they could, but they did not even try to help him. 注意： 1)所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2)续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1： Robert was fast sinking. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2： Thus, Robert’s life was saved. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Robert was fast sinking. It seemed as if Robert would be drowned only with his hands sticking out of the water. Just at the moment, Henry happened to be passing by. Hearing the screams, Henry ran quickly to the riverside, threw off his clothes and jumped into the water without hesitation. He reached Robert just as he was sinking at the last moment. By great effort, and with too much danger to himself, he brought Robert back to the shore. Thus, Robert’s life was saved. Robert and his new friends were ashamed at having called Henry a coward. They realized that Robert had true courage. And it was Henry who was the true friend worth making. They said sorry to Henry for their rude behavior and asked for his forgiveness. Henry forgave them happily. He and Robert were friends again and they went home together as usual. From this, Robert learned what true courage was: never be afraid to do good, but always fear to do evil. 【解析】 【导语】本文以时间为线索展开。罗伯特和亨利原本是好朋友，但是因为亨利不同意和罗伯特一起去看别人打架，罗伯特认为亨利是一个懦夫，就疏远了他，并告诉别的朋友亨利是个懦夫。几天后罗伯特和新朋友们一起在河里洗澡时意外溺水，新朋友们没有人救他，这时恰好亨利经过，亨利毫不犹豫地把罗伯特救了上来，罗伯特才明白真正的勇气是永远不要害怕做好事，但永远害怕做坏事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“罗伯特正在迅速下沉。”可知，第一段可描写亨利恰好经过奋不顾身地救了罗伯特。 ②由第二段首句内容“因此，罗伯特得救了。”可知，第二段可描写罗伯特认识到了什么是真正的勇气并向亨利道歉。 2.续写线索：危急——经过——施救——羞愧——道歉——重归于好——感悟 3.词汇激活 ①.路过：pass by/go by ②.意识到：realize/be aware ③.原谅：forgive/excuse 情绪类 ①.惭愧的：ashamed/compunctious ②.乐意地：happily/gladly 【点睛】[高分句型1] It seemed as if Robert would be drowned only with his hands sticking out of the water.
