Yao Ming was born in Shanghai in 1980. At 229 centimeters, he was the third tallest player in NBA history. Yao made his first appearance in the NBA during the 2000 Sydney Olympics. He surprised many critics with his first games, and was fast becoming an international fan favorite, as he broke Michael Jordan’s record for votes (投票) received. In July 2011 Yao announced his retirement from the NBA due to frequent problems in his left foot.
He continuously works to raise awareness of endangered species and even went as far as to stop using shark fin soup at his wedding in 2007. Yao has been saying no to shark fin soup since 2006 when he was appointed Goodwill Ambassador (亲善大使) for wildlife protection. “Shark’s are friends of human beings. They are not our food.” Since his retirement he has become a surprise international force in the field of wildlife protection, and he is using his fame to tell us the difficulties faced by sharks.
Most recently he went to Houston Zoo, as part of his continuing effort to educate young people about the importance of wildlife protection. He is part of a large campaign (运动) by the wildlife protection charity WildAid, and has traveled through Africa to see and document the difficulties facing elephants and rhinos in the wild. With elephant and rhinoceros poaching (偷猎) on the rise, Yao also said, “When the buying stops, the killing can too. Get rid of the demand for rhino horn and ivory right at the source. That’s what I want to do.”
Although Yao is not the first Chinese player in the NBA, it could be argued that he is the most important one, not just for his taking part in charity and wildlife protection work. He built a bridge between two completely different worlds and introduced millions to the Chinese way of life, and the American lifestyle separately.
4. The first paragraph mainly tells us ____________.
A. the history of MBA B. how high Yao Ming is
C. the life of Michael Jordan D. Yao Ming’s basketball life
5. Why did Yao Ming stop using shark fin soup at his wedding?
A. Because shark fin soup is not food.
B. Because he wants to set a good example.
C. Because sharks are not endangered species
D. Because shark fin soup is too expensive for him.
6. What do we know about what Yao Ming said in the Paragraph 3?
A The demand for wildlife leads to killing.
B. He wants to appeal to others to stop illegal selling.
C. WildAid plays an important role in wildlife protection.
D. Young people make a difference in wildlife protection.
7. What is the best title for this passage?
A. The first Chinese player in the NBA
B. A super basketball star -- Yao Ming
C. Yao Ming and his wildlife protection
D. When the buying stops, the killing can too
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了姚明在保护野生动物方面的努力和贡献。
【4题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“At 229 centimeters, he was the third tallest player in NBA history. Yao made his first appearance in the NBA during the 2000 Sydney Olympics. He surprised many critics with his first games, and was fast becoming an international fan favorite, as he broke Michael Jordan’s record for votes (投票) received. In July 2011 Yao announced his retirement from the NBA due to frequent problems in his left foot.( 他身高229厘米,是NBA历史上第三高的球员。姚明第一次在NBA亮相是在2000年悉尼奥运会。他的第一次比赛让许多评论家感到惊讶,并迅速成为国际球迷的最爱,因为他打破了迈克尔乔丹的投票记录。2011年7月,由于左脚频繁出现问题,姚明宣布从NBA退役。)”可知,本段讲述了姚明加入和退出NBA以及取得的相关成就,因此本段主要讲述了姚明的篮球生涯。故选D项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“He continuously works to raise awareness of endangered species and even went as far as to stop using shark fin soup at his wedding in 2007. (他一直致力于提高人们对濒危物种的认识,甚至在2007年的婚礼上停止使用鱼翅汤。)”可知,因为姚明想树立一个好榜样,因此在他的婚礼上不使用鱼翅汤。故选B项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“With elephant and rhinoceros poaching (偷猎) on the rise, Yao also said, “When the buying stops, the killing can too. Get rid of the demand for rhino horn and ivory right at the source. That’s what I want to do.”(随着大象和犀牛偷猎的增加,姚还说,“当购买停止时,猎杀也会停止。从源头上消除对犀牛角和象牙的需求。这就是我想做的。”)”可知,姚明想呼吁其他人停止非法买卖。故选B项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Although Yao is not the first Chinese player in the NBA, it could be argued that he is the most important one, not just for his taking part in charity and wildlife protection work. He built a bridge between two completely different worlds and introduced millions to the Chinese way of life, and the American lifestyle separately. (尽管姚明不是第一个进入NBA的中国球员,但可以说他是最重要的一个,不仅仅是因为他参与了慈善和野生动物保护工作。他在两个完全不同的世界之间架起了一座桥梁,让数百万人分别了解了中国人的生活方式和美国人的生活方式。)”可知,本文主要讲述了姚明在保护野生动物方面的努力和贡献,因此本文的最佳标题是选项C“姚明和他对野生动物的保护”。故选C项。
C
There have been fires in every Australian state, but New South Wales has been hardest hit. Fires have torn through bushland (丛林地), wooded areas, and national parks. Some start and are controlled in a few days, but the biggest fires have been burning for months.
Each year there is a fire season during the Australian summer, with hot, dry weather making it easy for fires to start and spread. Natural causes are responsible for fires most of the time, like lightning hits in drought-affected forests. Dry lightning was to blame for starting a number of fires in late December, which then traveled more than 20 kilometers in just five hours. Humans can also be responsible. Police have charged at least 24 people with starting bushfires on purpose, and have taken action against 183 people for setting fire since November.
Fire season in Australia is always dangerous -- the 2009 Black Saturday fires killed 173 people in Victoria, making it the deadliest bushfire disaster on record. But conditions have been unusually bad this year, making fires burn more strongly and making firefighting conditions particularly difficult. Australia is experiencing one of its worst droughts over the years. Meanwhile, a heatwave in December broke the record for highest nationwide average temperature, with some places under temperatures well above 40 degrees Celsius. Strong winds have also made the fires and smoke spread more rapidly, and have led to deaths.
About half a billion animals have been affected by the fires across NSW, with millions likely dead -- and that's lower than what is probably the real number. That number of total animals influenced could be as high as one billion nationwide. Almost a third of koalas in NSW may have been killed in the fires, and a third of the places where they live have been destroyed.
Some species, like koalas, aren't in any immediate danger of extinction because they are spread out across the country. But others that live in more suitable environments with lower populations, including certain types of frogs and birds, could be destroyed entirely if their home is hit by the fires.
8. Fires in Australia _________.
A. may last a long time B. often happen in spring
C. mainly happened in some states D. are easily controlled in a few hours
9. Fires in late December ___________.
A. spread rapidly B. caused by humans
C. were put out by police D. were due to wet weather
10. What does the underlined word “heatwave” probably mean?
A. big fire B. strong wind
C. serious drought D. period of hot weather
11. Why aren’t koalas in danger of extinction at once?
A. Because they can run fast.
B. Because they live far and wide.
C. Because their home is well protected.
D. Because they have a lower population.
【答案】8. A 9. A 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了澳大利亚由于夏季天气炎热干燥,经常有大火席卷丛林、林区和国家公园,带来了很多危害。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Some start and are controlled in a few days, but the biggest fires have been burning for months. (一些火灾在几天内开始并得到控制,但最大的火灾已经燃烧了几个月。)”以及第二段中“Each year there is a fire season during the Australian summer, with hot, dry weather making it easy for fires to start and spread. (澳大利亚的夏季每年都有一个火灾季节,炎热干燥的天气使火灾很容易发生和蔓延。)”可知,澳大利亚的火灾可能会持续很长一段时间。故选A项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Dry lightning was to blame for starting a number of fires in late December, which then traveled more than 20 kilometers in just five hours. (干燥的闪电导致了12月底的多起火灾,火灾在短短5小时内蔓延了20多公里。)”可知,12月下旬的大火迅速蔓延。故选A项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Meanwhile, a heatwave in December broke the record for highest nationwide average temperature, with some places under temperatures well above 40 degrees Celsius. (与此同时,12月的________打破了全国最高平均温度记录,一些地方的温度远高于40摄氏度。)”由全国最高平均温度和远高于40摄氏度,可知指的是炎热的天气,因此划线词heatwave意为“热浪,热天期”。故选D项。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Some species, like koalas, aren't in any immediate danger of extinction because they are spread out across the country. (有些物种,比如考拉,并没有立即面临灭绝的危险,因为它们遍布全国。)”可知,考拉没有马上灭绝,因为它们住的距离又远、范围又广。故选B项。
D
Your child is unique, but what all children have in common is natural curiosity(好奇心)and an ability to learn they are born with. Our brains are active all the time, and a baby’s brain is the busiest of all. Research has shown that babies begin to understand language about twice as fast as they actually speak it. By showing children other languages at an early age, you are giving them the opportunity to make use of their natural ability to hear and recognize (辨认)between the sounds of other languages, and their ability to make sense of what they are hearing.
Communication is something that children do to help them achieve something else, and they are unaware of the large amount of learning taking place. They take everything in through their senses, making connection between what they hear, see, smell, taste and touch. As long as we provide the right conditions, their learning and development will take place in a natural way.
In your child’s early years, the emotional environment is just as important as the physical environment. Children learn when they feel safe, happy, valued and listened to. This is central to any learning experience in child’s early years, including learning an additional language. Your child has a trial (试验)-and-error approach to its development, and making mistakes is a valuable part of the learning process. When children learn an additional language at an early age, they get the benefits of experimenting with that language as a natural part of their development. Their progress isn’t prevented by a fear of getting it wrong, a nd very young children are simply working their way towards getting it right.
The long-term benefits of learning another language go beyond being able to communicate with others. Studies suggest that children learning an additional language tend to score better on standardized tests because learning languages develops listening, observation, problem-solving and critical (批判性的)thinking skills. These are skills that are of life-long benefit, both personally and professionally. Encouraging in children a love of language at an early age prepares them well for school and for life.
12. what do we know about Children according to Paragraph 1?
A. Children are busy playing.
B. Children are born to speak.
C. Children are good at speaking native language.
D. Children live a better ability to learn other languages.
13. While learning a language, children ________ .
A. spook to themselves B. need to have language classes
C. make use of their different senses D. notice how much they have learned
14 Children learn when they________.
A. are in bad emotion B. need to have language classes
C. learn from their mistakes D. are taught by their teachers
15. In fact learning another language helps children to________.
A take more tests B. have a good time
C. encourage themselves D. develop life-long skills
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了孩子具有很强的语言学习能力,在孩子小的时候就给他们学习其他语言的机会,有利于孩子培养他们的听力、观察、解决问题和批判性思维能力,这些技能是终身受益的。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“By showing children other languages at an early age, you are giving them the opportunity to make use of their natural ability to hear and recognize (辨认)between the sounds of other languages, and their ability to make sense of what they are hearing. (在孩子很小的时候就向他们展示其他语言,你就给了他们机会去利用他们天生倾听的能力和识别其他语言声音的能力,以及理解他们所听到的东西的能力)”可推断,孩子们学习其他语言的能力更强。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“They take everything in through their senses, making connections between what they hear, see, smell, taste and touch. (他们通过感官吸收一切,将他们的听觉、视觉、嗅觉、味觉和触觉联系起来)”可知,学习语言时,孩子们会利用他们不同的感官。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Your child has a trial-and-error approach to its development, and making mistakes is a valuable part of the learning process. (你的孩子在成长过程中有一种反复尝试的方法,犯错误是学习过程中很有价值的一部分)”可知,孩子们能从错误中学习。故选C。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Studies suggest that children learning an additional language tend to score better on standardized tests because learning languages develops listening, observation, problem-solving and critical (批判性的) thinking skills. These are skills that are of life-long benefit, both personally and professionally. (研究表明,学习额外一门语言的孩子在标准化考试中更容易取得好成绩,因为学习语言可以培养他们的听力、观察、解决问题和批判性思维能力。这些技能对个人和职业都是终身受益的)”可知,事实上,学习另一种语言可以帮助孩子发展终身技能。故选D。
第二节 七选五 (共5小题, 每题2.5分, 共12.5分)
____16____ You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how:
Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. ____17____ A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.

A. Take advantage of class time to listen to what the teacher says.
B. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment.

【16题详解】
下文“You probably think you will never be a top student.(你可能认为你永远不会成为一个优等生)”说明你觉得你自己不是优等生。空处引出下文,D项中的“an average student”和下文中的“never be a top student”相呼应,说明你可能不是一名优等生,而是一名中等生或者差生。所以D项“可能你是一名中等生”引起下文,符合语境。故选D。
【17题详解】
上文“After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying.(列完这个清单后,你应该把你的时间安排好。首先是你吃饭、睡觉、穿衣等的时间,然后决定一个好的、有规律的学习时间)”说明需要列出待办事项和安排时间表,特别强调了安排学习时间的同时也要考虑吃饭、睡觉等日常活动可知,空处承接上文,内容与时间设定有关。B项“别忘了留出足够的时间娱乐”承接上文,符合语境。故选B。
【18题详解】
上文“Make good use of your time in class.(充分利用课堂时间)”说明本段内容与课堂时间有关。空处承接上文,强调了课堂听讲的重要性,A项中的“Take advantage of class time”和主旨句相呼应,说明“利用上课时间听老师讲的每句话”承接上文,符合语境。故选A。
【19题详解】
上文“Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes, review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, and read that material.(定期学习。放学回家后,复习笔记,复习老师第二天要讨论的要点,然后阅读这些材料)”说明回家后要复习笔记、预习老师即将讲解的重点,并阅读相关材料,这显然是为了加深理解和记忆。空处承接上文,指出了上述做法带来的好处。G项中的This指代前文中的“go over your notes, review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, and read that material”,说明“复习老师第二天要讨论的要点,然后阅读这些材料能够帮助你理解下一堂课”。故选G。
【20题详解】
下文“You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.(在你尝试过这些之后,你可能会发现许多其他的东西)”说明尝试这些方法之后可能会发现更多其他方法。空处引出下文,说明还有额外的学习策略可以帮助你。下文中的many others指代C项中的“other methods that might help you with your studying”,所以C项“还有其他方法可以帮助你学习。”符合语境,引出下文。故选C。

【分析】这是一篇记叙文。一位著名科学家和大家分享了他成功的一个小故事:小时候,有一次他把牛奶洒在了地板上。母亲非但没有批评他,反而让他玩了一会儿。通过这次经历,科学家明白了一个道理:犯错其实是学习新东西的机会。即使实验“不成功”,我们通常也能从中学到一些有价值的东西。
【36题详解】

Yao Ming was born in Shanghai in 1980. At 229 centimeters, he was the third tallest player in NBA history. Yao made his first appearance in the NBA during the 2000 Sydney Olympics. He surprised many critics with his first games, and was fast becoming an international fan favorite, as he broke Michael Jordan’s record for votes (投票) received. In July 2011 Yao announced his retirement from the NBA due to frequent problems in his left foot.
He continuously works to raise awareness of endangered species and even went as far as to stop using shark fin soup at his wedding in 2007. Yao has been saying no to shark fin soup since 2006 when he was appointed Goodwill Ambassador (亲善大使) for wildlife protection. “Shark’s are friends of human beings. They are not our food.” Since his retirement he has become a surprise international force in the field of wildlife protection, and he is using his fame to tell us the difficulties faced by sharks.
Most recently he went to Houston Zoo, as part of his continuing effort to educate young people about the importance of wildlife protection. He is part of a large campaign (运动) by the wildlife protection charity WildAid, and has traveled through Africa to see and document the difficulties facing elephants and rhinos in the wild. With elephant and rhinoceros poaching (偷猎) on the rise, Yao also said, “When the buying stops, the killing can too. Get rid of the demand for rhino horn and ivory right at the source. That’s what I want to do.”
Although Yao is not the first Chinese player in the NBA, it could be argued that he is the most important one, not just for his taking part in charity and wildlife protection work. He built a bridge between two completely different worlds and introduced millions to the Chinese way of life, and the American lifestyle separately.
4. The first paragraph mainly tells us ____________.
A. the history of MBA B. how high Yao Ming is
C. the life of Michael Jordan D. Yao Ming’s basketball life
5. Why did Yao Ming stop using shark fin soup at his wedding?
A. Because shark fin soup is not food.
B. Because he wants to set a good example.
C. Because sharks are not endangered species
D. Because shark fin soup is too expensive for him.
6. What do we know about what Yao Ming said in the Paragraph 3?
A. The demand for wildlife leads to killing.
B. He wants to appeal to others to stop illegal selling.
C. WildAid plays an important role in wildlife protection.
D. Young people make a difference in wildlife protection.
7. What is the best title for this passage?
A. The first Chinese player in the NBA
B. A super basketball star -- Yao Ming
C. Yao Ming and his wildlife protection
D. When the buying stops, the killing can too
C
There have been fires in every Australian state, but New South Wales has been hardest hit. Fires have torn through bushland (丛林地), wooded areas, and national parks. Some start and are controlled in a few days, but the biggest fires have been burning for months.
Each year there is a fire season during the Australian summer, with hot, dry weather making it easy for fires to start and spread. Natural causes are responsible for fires most of the time, like lightning hits in drought-affected forests. Dry lightning was to blame for starting a number of fires in late December, which then traveled more than 20 kilometers in just five hours. Humans can also be responsible. Police have charged at least 24 people with starting bushfires on purpose, and have taken action against 183 people for setting fire since November.
Fire season in Australia is always dangerous -- the 2009 Black Saturday fires killed 173 people in Victoria, making it the deadliest bushfire disaster on record. But conditions have been unusually bad this year, making fires burn more strongly and making firefighting conditions particularly difficult. Australia is experiencing one of its worst droughts over the years. Meanwhile, a heatwave in December broke the record for highest nationwide average temperature, with some places under temperatures well above 40 degrees Celsius. Strong winds have also made the fires and smoke spread more rapidly, and have led to deaths.
About half a billion animals have been affected by the fires across NSW, with millions likely dead -- and that's lower than what is probably the real number. That number of total animals influenced could be as high as one billion nationwide. Almost a third of koalas in NSW may have been killed in the fires, and a third of the places where they live have been destroyed.
Some species, like koalas, aren't in any immediate danger of extinction because they are spread out across the country. But others that live in more suitable environments with lower populations, including certain types of frogs and birds, could be destroyed entirely if their home is hit by the fires.
8. Fires in Australia _________.
A. may last a long time B. often happen in spring
C. mainly happened in some states D. are easily controlled in a few hours
9. Fires in late December ___________.
A. spread rapidly B. caused by humans
C. were put out by police D. were due to wet weather
10. What does the underlined word “heatwave” probably mean?
A. big fire B. strong wind
C. serious drought D. period of hot weather
11. Why aren’t koalas in danger of extinction at once?
A. Because they can run fast.
B. Because they live far and wide.
C. Because their home is well protected.
D. Because they have a lower population.
D
Your child is unique, but what all children have in common is natural curiosity(好奇心)and an ability to learn they are born with. Our brains are active all the time, and a baby’s brain is the busiest of all. Research has shown that babies begin to understand language about twice as fast as they actually speak it. By showing children other languages at an early age, you are giving them the opportunity to make use of their natural ability to hear and recognize (辨认)between the sounds of other languages, and their ability to make sense of what they are hearing.
Communication is something that children do to help them achieve something else, and they are unaware of the large amount of learning taking place. They take everything in through their senses, making connection between what they hear, see, smell, taste and touch. As long as we provide the right conditions, their learning and development will take place in a natural way.
In your child’s early years, the emotional environment is just as important as the physical environment. Children learn when they feel safe, happy, valued and listened to. This is central to any learning experience in child’s early years, including learning an additional language. Your child has a trial (试验)-and-error approach to its development, and making mistakes is a valuable part of the learning process. When children learn an additional language at an early age, they get the benefits of experimenting with that language as a natural part of their development. Their progress isn’t prevented by a fear of getting it wrong, a nd very young children are simply working their way towards getting it right.
The long-term benefits of learning another language go beyond being able to communicate with others. Studies suggest that children learning an additional language tend to score better on standardized tests because learning languages develops listening, observation, problem-solving and critical (批判性的)thinking skills. These are skills that are of life-long benefit, both personally and professionally. Encouraging in children a love of language at an early age prepares them well for school and for life.
12 what do we know about Children according to Paragraph 1?
A. Children are busy playing.
B. Children are born to speak.
C Children are good at speaking native language.
D. Children live a better ability to learn other languages.
13. While learning a language, children ________ .
A spook to themselves B. need to have language classes
C. make use of their different senses D. notice how much they have learned
14. Children learn when they________.
A. are in bad emotion B. need to have language classes
C. learn from their mistakes D. are taught by their teachers
15. In fact learning another language helps children to________.
A. take more tests B. have a good time
C. encourage themselves D. develop life-long skills
第二节 七选五 (共5小题, 每题2.5分, 共12.5分)
____16____ You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how:
Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. ____17____ A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.
Find a good place to study. Look around the house for an area suitable for study. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television. When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.
Make good use of your time in class. ____18____ Listening carefully in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes, review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, and read that material. ____19____ If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you’ll remember it longer.
Develop a good attitude towards tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. This helps you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be over worried.
____20____ You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.
A. Take advantage of class time to listen to what the teacher says.
B. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment.
C. There are other methods that might help you with your studying.
