A 【解析】 【原文】Nowadays, foreign visitors have been returning to Paris. And outdoor booksellers have also made their return to the neighborhood near Paris’ famous Seine River. The tradition of selling secondhand books by the Seine River dates back to 500 years ago. Rachid Bouanou is a former sailor and repairman. He is now selling secondhand books to visitors as they pass by. The Paris city government recently approved Bouanou and 17 other new riverside booksellers. This brings the total number of booksellers along the river to 230.The city government permits the riverside spots to be used for five years. The booksellers do not pay rent, but they must stay open at least four days a week. The Seine book stands are not only for tourists. Parisians also love to walk along the river and look through the booksellers’ offerings. Kubilai Iksel is a 27-year-old Parisian. He says, “It’s very encouraging that new sellers have arrived. It’s a sign that it’s not going to disappear. It’s one of the most wonderful things about Paris.” 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。 A Here are four scientific discoveries from this year that could lead to new inventions. Discovery 1 — To survive in the ocean, some animals essentially hide from the light itself, with transparent bodies that all but disappear from view, but it has one potential risk. The creatures’ eyes reflect light, creating a bit of shine that can give away their location to a predator (捕食者). Some shrimp and prawn larvae, however, have developed a way around this shortcoming. Their eyes are covered with a sheet of special glass that effectively matches their eyeshine to the color of surrounding water. In this way, the tiny crustaceans (甲壳类动物) can become invisible. This discovery might help researchers uncover ways to improve relative technologies in solar panels, remote sensing and communications. Discovery 2 — Brown bears resist blood clots (血栓) despite their long, inactive periods during their winter sleep. To find out how they do it, scientists tracked down brown bears in Sweden. They discovered one protein showed a significant seasonal change, which could provide ways for preventive treatment in cancer patients and those recovering from surgery, who would be more likely to develop blood clots. Discovery 3 — A caterpillar venom (毛虫毒液) contains an unusual, shape- shifting protein. When it reaches the outer surface of a cell, this protein forms into a doughnut- like shape, then makes a hole through the cell wall. By researching such nature, engineers could develop medicine delivery strategies that get drugs inside cells where they need to work, which will benefit cancer patients. Discovery 4 — This year, scientists found two proteins in bowhead whales that could be linked to DNA repair, increasing the animals’ cancer resistance. The proteins called CIRBP and RPA2 were much more common in bowhead whales and played a role in this gene repair. As a scientist says, we probably have the solution to cancer medicine out there in nature already. 21. What can we know about the tiny crustaceans? A. They can keep away from the light. B. They can perfectly hide themselves. C. They can shine while reflecting light. D. They can be located by their predator. 22. Which discovery might improve the way doctors use cancer drugs? A. Discovery 1. B. Discovery 2. C. Discovery 3. D. Discovery 4. 23. What do the four discoveries have in common? A. They provide an excellent inspiration for innovation. B. They might bring about a breakthrough in medicine. C. They have awakened our environmental awareness. D. They are all concerned with endangered creatures. 【答案】21. B 22. C 23. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，介绍了本年度的四项科学发现，这些发现可能会带来新的发明。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Discovery 1第一句“To survive in the ocean, some animals essentially hide from the light itself, with transparent bodies that all but disappear from view, but it has one potential risk.”（为了在海洋中生存，一些动物本质上是在躲避光线，它们透明的身体几乎从视野中消失了，但这有一个潜在的风险。）和倒数第二句“In this way, the tiny crustaceans（甲壳类动物）can become invisible.”（通过这种方式，微小的甲壳类动物可以隐形。）可知，那些甲壳类动物可以完美地隐藏自己。故选B项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Discovery 3中的“By researching such nature, engineers could develop medicine delivery strategies that get drugs inside cells where they need to work, which will benefit cancer patients.”（通过研究这种性质，工程师们可以开发出药物输送策略，使药物进入细胞中需要发挥作用的地方，这将有利于癌症患者。）可知，工程师们可以开发药物输送策略，将药物输送到细胞内需要发挥作用的地方，这样就很有可能改变医生使用抗癌药物的方式。故选C项。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Here are four scientific discoveries from this year that could lead to new inventions.（以下是今年的四项科学发现，它们可能会带来新的发明。）”以及结合全文内容可知，这四个科学发现的共同点是，它们为创新提供了极好的灵感。故选A项。 B A self-described “girly girl”, nine-year-old Zandra Cunningham was constantly begging her parents for the latest beauty products. One day her dad simply told her “no”, which inspired her to make her own. Zandra has been recognized by Entrepreneur magazine as one of the youngest millionaires in America. When asked about her experience as a child entrepreneur (企业家), Zandra says, “It wasn’t frightening. When you’re young, you don’t have that fear mentality. ‘Maybe it’s not going to work’ never really crossed my mind.” For Zandra, it became a challenge to separate her personal interest from what her customers actually wanted. “There were a lot of things that I felt were good ideas, but they wouldn’t fit into the market,” she says. Being part of the market herself, Zandra felt she had a unique perspective that allowed her to truly listen and respond to her customers. It started as a hobby for Zandra and her mom. They’d play around with different ingredients until they found formulas they liked “through trial and error”. Slowly, they started transforming the pastime into a brand. Zandra began selling her products at local markets, and a few years later—when Zandra was 12 years old — the family started a shop for Zandra Beauty. At the time, Zandra Beauty was one of the first brands to offer plant-based and organic beauty products at an affordable price. The 21-year-old has essentially grown up alongside her brand—but her goals have remained the same: “Our main focus is to push out amazing products that are safe for everyone and the earth.” “There’re so many brands doing similar things, but there’s still so much room to grow,” says Zandra. “Your customers are out there, and you just have to find something that’s going to set you apart.” 24. What can be inferred from Zandra’s words in paragraph 2? A. Her young mind made her fearless. B. Her parents supported her greatly. C. She had much precious experience. D. She was always very caring. 25. Which of the following is the most important in Zandra’s opinion? A. Sharing her personal interests. B. The diversity of hobbies. C. Changing the global market. D. The need of customers. 26. What kind of product does Zandra mainly pursue? A. The one that is cheap and useful. B. The one that is enjoyed by her mom. C. The one that is created by trial and error. D. The one that is reliable and eco-friendly. 27. What is Zandra’s attitude towards the future of her brand? A. Hopeful. B. Concerned. C. Doubtful. D. Relieved. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. D 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了九岁的Zandra Cunningham从小就对美容产品感兴趣，她自学制作美容产品并在当地市场销售，后来创立了自己的美容品牌Zandra Beauty。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中Zandra的话“It wasn’t frightening. When you’re young, you don’t have that fear mentality. ‘Maybe it’s not going to work’ never really crossed my mind.(这并不可怕。当你年轻的时候，你不会有那种恐惧的心态。我从来没有想过“也许这行不通”)”可知，从Zandra的话可以推出年轻的头脑使她无所畏惧。故选A项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“For Zandra, it became a challenge to separate her personal interest from what her customers actually wanted. “There were a lot of things that I felt were good ideas, but they wouldn’t fit into the market,” she says. Being part of the market herself, Zandra felt she had a unique perspective that allowed her to truly listen and respond to her customers.(对Zandra来说，将她的个人兴趣与客户的实际需求区分开来是一项挑战。她说：“有很多东西我觉得是好主意，但它们不适合市场。”作为市场的一部分，Zandra觉得她有一个独特的视角，使她能够真正倾听和回应她的客户)”可知，Zandra认为自己觉得好的不一定适合市场，不能根据自己的个人兴趣来推断客户的实际需求，真正倾听和回应她的客户的需求才是最重要的。故选D项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“At the time, Zandra Beauty was one of the first brands to offer plant-based and organic beauty products at an affordable price. The 21-year-old has essentially grown up alongside her brand—but her goals have remained the same: “Our main focus is to push out amazing products that are safe for everyone and the earth.”(当时，赞德拉美容是第一个以可承受的价格提供植物性和有机美容产品的品牌之一。这位21岁的女孩基本上是和她的品牌一起成长的，但她的目标一直保持不变：“我们的主要重点是推出对每个人和地球都安全的神奇产品。”)”可知，Zandra的产品是植物性的有机美容产品，对每个人和地球都是安全的。所以她的产品主要追求产品的可靠和环保。故选D项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Zandra的话“There’re so many brands doing similar things, but there’s still so much room to grow(有很多品牌在做类似的事情，但仍有很大的发展空间)”和“Your customers are out there, and you just have to find something that’s going to set you apart.(你的客户就在那里，你只需要找到能让你与众不同的东西)”可推知，Zandra认为自己的品牌仍然有很大的发展空间，对自己品牌的未来满怀希望。故选A项。 C If you’ve ever waded into the ocean for a swim and suddenly realized that the shore is getting farther away, not closer, you may have encountered a rip current (离岸流). Common at beaches worldwide, these powerful currents flow from the shore toward the sea at speeds up to several feet per second. It’s important to know what rip currents are and how to look for them, because they are a leading cause of drownings in the surf zone near shore. Rip currents can form in several ways. One type of rip current, known as a channel rip current, forms when there are gaps between breaking waves. As waves break, they push water toward the beach and raise the level of the water slightly. If waves break on a sandbar (沙洲), but not in a deeper channel that cuts through the sandbar, the extra water that the waves have pushed toward the beacon escapes back to the ocean through the channel. The darker corridor of the escaping water acts like a conveyor belt, moving water, unsuspecting swimmers and small marine organisms offshore. Another type, known as a transient or flash rip current, forms when surf is choppy (波涛汹涌的). The edges of breaking waves push on the water and make it spin, like a fast ice skater crashing into someone. Think of a rip current as a swift river cutting through the surf away from the shore. Swimming against the current is going to tire you out and put you at risk of drowning. Instead, swim parallel to the beach—think of heading for the “river banks”—until you are out of the rip current’s pull. Once you’re no longer fighting it, you can swim back to shore. Rip currents aren’t just a safety issue. Scientists are beginning to better understand the crucial ecological role they play in the ocean. Many marine organisms, including oysters, barnacles, fish and coral, rely on ocean currents to find suitable habitats. These organisms swim up or down or attach to floating or sinking material and are transported by multiple ocean processes. Rip currents are a key mechanism for carrying larvae (幼体) to deeper waters or recalculating them in shallow waters. The type and behavior of the rip current may affect the movement of marine organisms. 28. What can we learn about channel rip currents according to the text? A. They cause a bit huger waves than common currents. B. They form around deeper channels in the ocean’s bottom. C. They present visually as darker areas between breaking waves. D. They are generated when two waves meet close to the shore. 29. What does the underlined word “transient” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Dangerous. B. Powerful. C. Slow-flowing. D. Short-lived. 30. What suggestion does the author give on escaping from a rip current? A. Swimming with the current. B. Avoiding swimming against the current. C. Swimming under the current. D. Avoiding floating with the current. 31. Why are rip currents important to the ocean ecology? A. They redistribute small marine organisms. B. They provide habitats for marine organisms. C. They change the structure of marine ecosystems. D. They bring nutrients from the ocean’s bottom to the surface. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。离岸流是指从海岸经波浪区向海中流动的一股狭窄而强劲的水流。离岸流具有很大的危险性，但同时对于海洋生态具有重要作用。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“One type of rip current, known as a channel rip current, forms when there are gaps between breaking waves.(一种类型的离岸流，被称为通道离岸流，当破碎波之间存在间隙时形成)”及“The darker corridor of the escaping water acts like a conveyor belt, moving water, unsuspecting swimmers and small marine organisms offshore.(流出水的较暗色地带就像一条传送带，移动着水，不知情的游泳者和离岸的小型海洋生物)”可推知，channel rip currents在视觉上呈现为海浪裂口间较暗的区域。故选C。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据话线词后面的“or”可知，transient与“flash”是近义词，结合后文“forms when surf is choppy(波浪起伏时形成)”可知，划线词意为“短暂的，瞬间的”。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的第二句“Swimming against the current is going to tire you out and put you at risk of drowning.(逆流游泳会使你疲惫不堪，并使你有溺水的危险)”可推知，作者建议避免逆流而游，因为逆流而游会导致疲惫甚至溺水。故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Rip currents are a key mechanism for carrying larvae (幼体) to deeper waters or recirculation them in shallow waters. The type and behavior of the rip current may affect the movement of marine organisms.(离岸流是将幼虫带到较深水域或在浅水中再循环的关键机制。离岸流的类型和行为可能影响海洋生物的运动)”可推知，离岸流可重新分配海洋微生物，故而对海洋生态具有重要作用。故选A。 D Procrastination (拖延), we are often told, is the “thief of time”. It’s often the case that when I notice my days slipping away in some unplanned activity. I can’t help but feel a sense of loss for all I might have achieved and guilt for failing to prevent it. However, this may only make it harder to break the habit, because procrastination is often a way of dealing with stress and self-criticism. If I feel anxious about writing a new chapter of my book, for example, I may choose to hide my head in the sand of social media rather than face the reality of a bad first draft. The lost time will only make poorer performance more likely, but it provides short-term relief from the anxiety I am facing. If we then beat ourselves up, it is only going to raise our levels of stress and anxiety, which may cause us to look for more relief in temporary distractions (消遣) - messing up our next task, too. For this reason, psychologists suggest that practising greater self-compassion (自我同情) may be one way of reducing procrastination. Imagine you are talking to a friend in a similar situation. What kind of words of encouragement would you use? You might also consider employing a little “strategic indulgence (放任)”. Let me give you an example. One of my main sources of time-wasting is funny YouTube videos, so I might decide to enjoy those for 10 minutes at 11 am, before returning to writing. Since it is a decision we’ve made, we don’t have the feelings of failure that come with our procrastination, so we are then less likely to fall into the cycle of being unproductive. Research shows that students who procrastinate “intentionally” tend to have higher motivation and make better progress towards their goals, with less stress. In today’s busy culture, it is encouraging to see research that celebrates self-compassion and self-indulgence. The thief of time may be an unavoidable guest, but, with the right mindset, we can ensure its visits are short. 32. How does the author respond to his procrastination according to paragraph 1? A. He regrets what he had done. B. He welcomes the extra free time. C. He makes up his mind to avoid it. D. He completes tasks immediately. 33. What idea does the author mainly convey in paragraph 2? A. The benefits of procrastination are often ignored. B. Our bad performance leads to procrastination. C. It is quite difficult to prevent procrastination. D. The negative response leads to more harm. 34. What does the author suggest people do? A. Watch videos to reduce stress. B. Include procrastination in a schedule. C. Talk to friends facing similar situations. D. Ignore procrastination and improve productivity. 35. Which could be the best title for the text? A. Managing Guilt in the Battle Against Procrastination B. Regarding Procrastination as a Tool for Achieving Goals C. How to Stop Procrastinating and Start Getting Things Done D. What the Psychological Roots of Procrastination Are 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。人们在面对压力时往往会采用拖延的方式，但又会因为拖延而自责，为此本文提出了应对拖延的两种方法。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“I can’t help but feel a sense of loss for all I might have achieved and guilt for failing to prevent it. (我不禁对我可能取得的一切感到失落，并为未能阻止它而感到内疚。)”可知，作者意识到自己拖延时会很愧疚后悔。故选A。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“If we then beat ourselves up, it is only going to raise our levels of stress and anxiety, which may cause us to look for more relief in temporary distractions(消遣) - messing up our next task, too. (如果我们自责不已，只会增加我们的压力和焦虑水平，这可能会导致我们在暂时的消遣中寻求更多的缓解——也会打乱我们的下一个任务。)”可知，本段通过举例说明如果我们因为拖延就责备自己，只会增加我们的压力和焦虑水平，这可能会导致我们希望进一步放纵，也会弄糟我们的下一个任务。由此可知，对拖延的消极反应会带来更多坏处。故选D。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“One of my main sources of time-wasting is funny YouTube videos, so I might decide to enjoy those for 10 minutes at 11 am, before returning to writing. Since it is a decision we’ve made, we don’t have the feelings of failure that come with our procrastination, so we are then less likely to fall into the cycle of being unproductive. (我浪费时间的主要来源之一是有趣的YouTube视频，所以我可能会决定在上午11点欣赏这些视频10分钟，然后再开始写作。由于这是我们做出的决定，我们不会有拖延带来的失败感，所以我们不太可能陷入低效的循环。)”可知，作者通过有计划地安排看YouTube视频的例子说明，作者建议将拖延列入计划中。故选B。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中的“However, this may only make it harder to break the habit, because procrastination is often a way of dealing with stress and self-criticism. (然而，这可能只会使打破这种习惯变得更加困难，因为拖延往往是应对压力和自我批评的一种方式。)”、第三段中的“For this reason, psychologists suggest that practising greater self-compassion (自我同情) may be one way of reducing procrastination. (因此，心理学家建议，练习更大的自我同情可能是减少拖延症的一种方法。)”、第四段中的“You might also consider employing a little “strategic indulgence (放任)”. (你也可以考虑采用一点“战略放纵”。)”可知，本文主要围绕拖延展开，并提出了减少拖延的两个方法——练习自我同情和战略放纵。由此可知，C项“如何停止拖延并完成工作”为文章最佳标题。故选C。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many students study by reading their notes and textbooks over and over again. But studies show there are more effective ways to help you study smarter. ____36____ Many students know what they are expected to do. Yet many often fail to plan ahead. So they need first to set a reachable target. Break it into pieces and make them happen one by one. It may seem strange at first. But after two weeks or more, it becomes a normal thing. Don’t just reread. ____37____ Rereading is like looking at the answer to a puzzle, rather than doing it yourself. It seems that it makes sense. But until you try it yourself, you don’t really know whether you understand it. Find examples. Abstract concepts can be hard to understand. It tends to be far easier to form a mental image if you have a concrete example of something. ____38____ On its own, that concept might be hard to remember. But if you think about a lemon or vinegar, it becomes easier! Dig deeper. It’s hard to remember countless facts and figures if you don’t push further. Ask why things are a certain way. How did they come about? Why do they matter? Psychologists call this elaboration (深究). It’s taking class material and asking many how and why questions about it. ____39____ Practice more. Musicians practice their instruments. Athletes practice sports skills. ____40____ In a study, students took practice tests over several weeks. On the final test, they scored more than a full letter grade better, on average, than the students who studied the way they normally had. A. Make a budget and save it. B. Make a plan and stick to it. C The same should go for learning. D. However, not all can apply to students. E. In other words, don’t just accept facts at face value. F. Sadly, reading books and notes repeatedly is common for many students G. For instance, sour foods usually taste that way because they contain an acid. 【答案】36. B 37. F 38. G 39. E 40. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。许多学生通过反复阅读笔记和课本来学习。但研究表明，有更有效的方法可以帮助你更聪明地学习。文章主要说明了高效学习的几个方法。 【36题详解】 根据下文“Many students know what they are expected to do. Yet many often fail to plan ahead. (许多学生知道别人对自己的期望，然而却不能提前谋划)”结合空格的位置以及接下来的段落信息可知，此处为段落标题，讲述学习方法之一：制定计划。选项B“制定计划并坚持下去”总领本段，符合题意。故选B。 【37题详解】 根据本段标题“Don’t just reread. (不要只是反复阅读)”以及后文“Rereading is like looking at the answer to a puzzle, rather than doing it yourself. It seems that it makes sense. But until you try it yourself, you don’t really know whether you understand it. (重读就像在看一个谜题的答案，而不是自己去做。这似乎是有道理的。但在你自己尝试之前，你不知道自己是否真正理解了它)”可知，本段重点讲述不良阅读习惯，所以空格处应讲述学生在阅读中出现的问题；选项F“可惜地是，反复读书和笔记这种现象在学生中很常见”符合题意，选项中的“reading books and notes repeatedly”与段落标题中的“reread”相呼应。故选F。 【38题详解】 根据上文“It tends to be far easier to form a mental image if you have a concrete example of something. (如果你有具体的事例的话往往很容易形成一个心里意象)”可知，本句应是通过事例来说明“利用事例助学”的效果。故选项G“例如，酸的食物通常尝起来是这样的，因为它们含有一种酸”承接上文。故选G。 【39题详解】 根据本段标题“Dig deeper (深挖)”以及上文“It’s taking class material and asking many how and why questions about it. (它是拿着课堂材料，问很多关于它的如何和为什么的问题)”可知，空格处应表示看问题不能停留在表面，要深挖；选项E“换句话说，不要只接受事实的表面价值”衔接上文并进一步重申本段主旨。故选E。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Musicians practice their instruments. Athletes practice sports skills. (音乐家练习他们的乐器。运动员练习运动技巧)”可知，空格处应表示学习也一样需要多练习。选项C“学习也一样需要练习”承接上文讲述练习对于学习的重要性。故选C。 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和 D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 About three years ago, a tornado attacked our town.

They were learning about science, which Jessie normally enjoyed. However, a bird stayed outside the classroom window, which Jessie’s desk was right next to. So it caught much of Jessie’s attention. “Jessie, are you listening?” Mrs. Williamson’s question cut in Jessie’s thoughts. Jessie turned to her teacher. “What was that?” she asked. The teacher frowned (皱眉), saying it was the second time that morning that she hadn’t been listening and that she was supposed to do better. Jessie’s face turned red, thinking Mrs. Williamson shouldn’t have said that to her. Jessie couldn’t help it if the bird by her desk was distracting (分心) her. When the bell rang for a break, the teacher stopped Jessie. “I hope you will think about what I said in class,” she told her. “A rule is a rule. And it’s important for everyone to follow the rules.” Jessie nodded to show she understood, but she didn’t really take it seriously, still thinking Mrs. Williamson was being too strict. Then she rushed outside to play ball games with other kids. They first picked teams and made the rules for the game. According to the rules, when a team got two outs, they had to go to the outfield (外场). Jessie’s team was in the outfield first. In the game, she tried her best. Soon, the other team got two outs, and then it was Jessie’s turn to kick the ball. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150个左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 Instead of giving Jessie’s team a chance to score, the other team quit. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Jessie went to Mrs. Williamson’s office. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Instead of giving Jessie’s team a chance to score, the other team quit. It made Jessie angry and she complained it was not fair. One of the players on the other team said they didn’t enjoy the game but Jessie thought that they had to keep on with the game, reminding them it was one of the rules and a rule is a rule. But as soon as she said the words, she remembered what happened in class. Mrs. Williamson had told her a rule is a rule, too. No wonder her teacher was so strict. Rules were important for everything to be fair. Jessie went to Mrs. Williamson’s office. Seeing Jessie at the door, Mrs. Williamson was a little surprised. She found Jessie’s face flushed with shame. Jessie apologized and promised to follow the rules in class and she was going to do better from then on. Her teacher smiled warmly and hugged Jessie, saying, “I’m proud of you, Jessie. It is very brave of you to apologize.” Jessie smiled, too. She felt much better, and she understood that she needed to follow the class rules. After all, a rule is a rule! 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了杰西由于被窗外的鸟儿吸引上课走神被Williamson老师点名批评，老师说规则必须被遵守，但杰西不以为然，之后她到操场上进行比赛，却看到对方队伍违背规则，自己很生气，想起了课上老师的话，认识到规则对于公平的重要性，之后杰西认识到自己的错误去找老师道歉，老师表示为她感到骄傲，她明白了要遵守班级规则。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“对方没有给杰西的队得分的机会，而是退出了。”可知，第一段可描写杰西看到对方的举动的反应，并认为规则就是规则，需要被遵守，从而想起了课上发生的事情，认识到自己的错误。 ②由第二段首句内容“杰西去了威廉姆森夫人的办公室。”可知，第二段可描写杰西向老师道歉，并承诺以后遵守课堂规则，老师为她感到骄傲。 2.续写线索：杰西生气——对方队员解释——杰西坚持对方应该遵守规则——回忆课上发生的事情——意识到自己的问题——前去道歉，做出保证——老师骄傲 3.词汇激活 行为类 继续：keep on with/go on with/continue with/carry on with 想起：remember/recall 发生：happen/take place 情绪类 生气：angry/ irritated/ pissed off 惊讶的：surprised/amazed 【点睛】[高分句型1] But as soon as she said the words, she remembered what happened in class.（由as soon as引导的时间状语从句和what引导的宾语从句） [高分句型2] Seeing Jessie at the door, Mrs. Williamson was a little surprised.（由现在分词作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null 皖西当代职业中专学校高三年级9月月考 英 语 全卷满分150分 考试时间120分钟 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡对应题目的答案涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其它答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将本试题和答题卡一并交回。 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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Where are the speakers probably?

Discovery 1 — To survive in the ocean, some animals essentially hide from the light itself, with transparent bodies that all but disappear from view, but it has one potential risk. The creatures’ eyes reflect light, creating a bit of shine that can give away their location to a predator (捕食者). Some shrimp and prawn larvae, however, have developed a way around this shortcoming. Their eyes are covered with a sheet of special glass that effectively matches their eyeshine to the color of surrounding water. In this way, the tiny crustaceans (甲壳类动物) can become invisible. This discovery might help researchers uncover ways to improve relative technologies in solar panels, remote sensing and communications. Discovery 2 — Brown bears resist blood clots (血栓) despite their long, inactive periods during their winter sleep. To find out how they do it, scientists tracked down brown bears in Sweden. They discovered one protein showed a significant seasonal change, which could provide ways for preventive treatment in cancer patients and those recovering from surgery, who would be more likely to develop blood clots. Discovery 3 — A caterpillar venom (毛虫毒液) contains an unusual, shape- shifting protein. When it reaches the outer surface of a cell, this protein forms into a doughnut- like shape, then makes a hole through the cell wall. By researching such nature, engineers could develop medicine delivery strategies that get drugs inside cells where they need to work, which will benefit cancer patients. Discovery 4 — This year, scientists found two proteins in bowhead whales that could be linked to DNA repair, increasing the animals’ cancer resistance. The proteins called CIRBP and RPA2 were much more common in bowhead whales and played a role in this gene repair. As a scientist says, we probably have the solution to cancer medicine out there in nature already. 21. What can we know about the tiny crustaceans? A. They can keep away from the light. B. They can perfectly hide themselves. C. They can shine while reflecting light. D. They can be located by their predator. 22. Which discovery might improve the way doctors use cancer drugs? A. Discovery 1. B. Discovery 2. C. Discovery 3. D. Discovery 4. 23. What do the four discoveries have in common? A. They provide an excellent inspiration for innovation. B. They might bring about a breakthrough in medicine. C. They have awakened our environmental awareness. D. They are all concerned with endangered creatures. B A self-described “girly girl”, nine-year-old Zandra Cunningham was constantly begging her parents for the latest beauty products. One day her dad simply told her “no”, which inspired her to make her own. Zandra has been recognized by Entrepreneur magazine as one of the youngest millionaires in America. When asked about her experience as a child entrepreneur (企业家), Zandra says, “It wasn’t frightening. When you’re young, you don’t have that fear mentality. ‘Maybe it’s not going to work’ never really crossed my mind.” For Zandra, it became a challenge to separate her personal interest from what her customers actually wanted. “There were a lot of things that I felt were good ideas, but they wouldn’t fit into the market,” she says. Being part of the market herself, Zandra felt she had a unique perspective that allowed her to truly listen and respond to her customers. It started as a hobby for Zandra and her mom. They’d play around with different ingredients until they found formulas they liked “through trial and error”. Slowly, they started transforming the pastime into a brand. Zandra began selling her products at local markets, and a few years later—when Zandra was 12 years old — the family started a shop for Zandra Beauty. At the time, Zandra Beauty was one of the first brands to offer plant-based and organic beauty products at an affordable price. The 21-year-old has essentially grown up alongside her brand—but her goals have remained the same: “Our main focus is to push out amazing products that are safe for everyone and the earth.” “There’re so many brands doing similar things, but there’s still so much room to grow,” says Zandra. “Your customers are out there, and you just have to find something that’s going to set you apart.” 24. What can be inferred from Zandra’s words in paragraph 2? A. Her young mind made her fearless. B. Her parents supported her greatly. C She had much precious experience. D. She was always very caring. 25. Which of the following is the most important in Zandra’s opinion? A. Sharing her personal interests. B. The diversity of hobbies. C. Changing the global market. D. The need of customers. 26. What kind of product does Zandra mainly pursue? A. The one that is cheap and useful. B. The one that is enjoyed by her mom. C. The one that is created by trial and error.

C If you’ve ever waded into the ocean for a swim and suddenly realized that the shore is getting farther away, not closer, you may have encountered a rip current (离岸流). Common at beaches worldwide, these powerful currents flow from the shore toward the sea at speeds up to several feet per second. It’s important to know what rip currents are and how to look for them, because they are a leading cause of drownings in the surf zone near shore. Rip currents can form in several ways. One type of rip current, known as a channel rip current, forms when there are gaps between breaking waves. As waves break, they push water toward the beach and raise the level of the water slightly. If waves break on a sandbar (沙洲), but not in a deeper channel that cuts through the sandbar, the extra water that the waves have pushed toward the beacon escapes back to the ocean through the channel. The darker corridor of the escaping water acts like a conveyor belt, moving water, unsuspecting swimmers and small marine organisms offshore. Another type, known as a transient or flash rip current, forms when surf is choppy (波涛汹涌的). The edges of breaking waves push on the water and make it spin, like a fast ice skater crashing into someone. Think of a rip current as a swift river cutting through the surf away from the shore. Swimming against the current is going to tire you out and put you at risk of drowning. Instead, swim parallel to the beach—think of heading for the “river banks”—until you are out of the rip current’s pull. Once you’re no longer fighting it, you can swim back to shore. Rip currents aren’t just a safety issue. Scientists are beginning to better understand the crucial ecological role they play in the ocean. Many marine organisms, including oysters, barnacles, fish and coral, rely on ocean currents to find suitable habitats. These organisms swim up or down or attach to floating or sinking material and are transported by multiple ocean processes. Rip currents are a key mechanism for carrying larvae (幼体) to deeper waters or recalculating them in shallow waters. The type and behavior of the rip current may affect the movement of marine organisms. 28. What can we learn about channel rip currents according to the text? A. They cause a bit huger waves than common currents. B. They form around deeper channels in the ocean’s bottom. C. They present visually as darker areas between breaking waves. D. They are generated when two waves meet close to the shore. 29. What does the underlined word “transient” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Dangerous. B. Powerful. C. Slow-flowing. D. Short-lived. 30. What suggestion does the author give on escaping from a rip current? A. Swimming with the current. B. Avoiding swimming against the current. C. Swimming under the current. D. Avoiding floating with the current. 31. Why are rip currents important to the ocean ecology? A. They redistribute small marine organisms. B. They provide habitats for marine organisms. C. They change the structure of marine ecosystems. D. They bring nutrients from the ocean’s bottom to the surface. D Procrastination (拖延), we are often told, is the “thief of time”. It’s often the case that when I notice my days slipping away in some unplanned activity. I can’t help but feel a sense of loss for all I might have achieved and guilt for failing to prevent it. However, this may only make it harder to break the habit, because procrastination is often a way of dealing with stress and self-criticism. If I feel anxious about writing a new chapter of my book, for example, I may choose to hide my head in the sand of social media rather than face the reality of a bad first draft. The lost time will only make poorer performance more likely, but it provides short-term relief from the anxiety I am facing. If we then beat ourselves up, it is only going to raise our levels of stress and anxiety, which may cause us to look for more relief in temporary distractions (消遣) - messing up our next task, too. For this reason, psychologists suggest that practising greater self-compassion (自我同情) may be one way of reducing procrastination. Imagine you are talking to a friend in a similar situation. What kind of words of encouragement would you use? You might also consider employing a little “strategic indulgence (放任)”. Let me give you an example. One of my main sources of time-wasting is funny YouTube videos, so I might decide to enjoy those for 10 minutes at 11 am, before returning to writing. Since it is a decision we’ve made, we don’t have the feelings of failure that come with our procrastination, so we are then less likely to fall into the cycle of being unproductive. Research shows that students who procrastinate “intentionally” tend to have higher motivation and make better progress towards their goals, with less stress. In today’s busy culture, it is encouraging to see research that celebrates self-compassion and self-indulgence. The thief of time may be an unavoidable guest, but, with the right mindset, we can ensure its visits are short. 32. How does the author respond to his procrastination according to paragraph 1? A. He regrets what he had done. B. He welcomes the extra free time. C. He makes up his mind to avoid it. D. He completes tasks immediately. 33. What idea does the author mainly convey in paragraph 2? A. The benefits of procrastination are often ignored. B Our bad performance leads to procrastination. C. It is quite difficult to prevent procrastination. D. The negative response leads to more harm. 34. What does the author suggest people do? A. Watch videos to reduce stress. B. Include procrastination in a schedule. C. Talk to friends facing similar situations. D. Ignore procrastination and improve productivity. 35. Which could be the best title for the text? A. Managing Guilt in the Battle Against Procrastination B. Regarding Procrastination as a Tool for Achieving Goals C. How to Stop Procrastinating and Start Getting Things Done D. What the Psychological Roots of Procrastination Are 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many students study by reading their notes and textbooks over and over again. But studies show there are more effective ways to help you study smarter. ____36____ Many students know what they are expected to do. Yet many often fail to plan ahead. So they need first to set a reachable target. Break it into pieces and make them happen one by one. It may seem strange at first. But after two weeks or more, it becomes a normal thing. Don’t just reread. ____37____ Rereading is like looking at the answer to a puzzle, rather than doing it yourself. It seems that it makes sense. But until you try it yourself, you don’t really know whether you understand it. Find examples. Abstract concepts can be hard to understand. It tends to be far easier to form a mental image if you have a concrete example of something. ____38____ On its own, that concept might be hard to remember. But if you think about a lemon or vinegar, it becomes easier! Dig deeper. It’s hard to remember countless facts and figures if you don’t push further. Ask why things are a certain way. How did they come about? Why do they matter? Psychologists call this elaboration (深究). It’s taking class material and asking many how and why questions about it. ____39____ Practice more. Musicians practice their instruments. Athletes practice sports skills. ____40____ In a study, students took practice tests over several weeks. On the final test, they scored more than a full letter grade better, on average, than the students who studied the way they normally had. A. Make a budget and save it. B. Make a plan and stick to it. C. The same should go for learning. D. However, not all can apply to students. E. In other words, don’t just accept facts at face value. F.

They were learning about science, which Jessie normally enjoyed. However, a bird stayed outside the classroom window, which Jessie’s desk was right next to. So it caught much of Jessie’s attention. “Jessie, are you listening?” Mrs. Williamson’s question cut in Jessie’s thoughts. Jessie turned to her teacher. “What was that?” she asked. The teacher frowned (皱眉), saying it was the second time that morning that she hadn’t been listening and that she was supposed to do better. Jessie’s face turned red, thinking Mrs. Williamson shouldn’t have said that to her. Jessie couldn’t help it if the bird by her desk was distracting (分心) her. When the bell rang for a break, the teacher stopped Jessie. “I hope you will think about what I said in class,” she told her. “A rule is a rule. And it’s important for everyone to follow the rules.” Jessie nodded to show she understood, but she didn’t really take it seriously, still thinking Mrs. Williamson was being too strict. Then she rushed outside to play ball games with other kids. They first picked teams and made the rules for the game. According to the rules, when a team got two outs, they had to go to the outfield (外场). Jessie’s team was in the outfield first. In the game, she tried her best. Soon, the other team got two outs, and then it was Jessie’s turn to kick the ball. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150个左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Instead of giving Jessie’s team a chance to score, the other team quit. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Jessie went to Mrs. Williamson’s office. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
