In the village in which she lived, Mr. Thornton kept a store where he sold fruit of all kinds, including berries in their season. One day he said to Amy, whose parents were quite poor, “Would you like to earn some money? ” “Oh, yes,” replied she, “for I want some new shoes, and papa has no money to buy them with. ” “Well, Amy,” said Mr. Thornton, “I noticed some fine, ripe blackberries in Mr. Green’s field today, and he said that anybody was welcome to them. I will pay you thirteen cents a quart (度量单位) for all you will pick for me” Amy was delighted at the thought of earning some money; so she ran home to get a basket, intending to go immediately to pick the berries. Then she thought she would like to know how much money she would get if she picked five quarts. With the help of her slate (书写板) and pencil, she found out that she would get sixty-five cents. “But supposing I should pick a dozen quarts,” thought she, “how much should I earn then?” “Dear me!” she said, after figuring a while, “I should earn a dollar and fifty-six cents.” Amy then found out what Mr. Thornton would pay her for fifty, a hundred, and two hundred quarts. It took her some time to do this, and then it was so near dinner time that she had to stay at home until afternoon. As soon as dinner was over, she took her basket and hurried to the field. Some boys had been there before dinner, and all the ripe berries were picked. She could not find enough to fill a quart measure. 4. Why did Mr. Thornton invite Amy to pick berries? A.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个叫Amy的小女孩，总是光想事不做事。一天，Mr. Thornton叫她去农场摘黑莓，告诉她这是一个挣钱的好机会，可是Amy迟迟不去，一直在算她能挣多少钱，最后等她到了农场发现，黑莓都被摘光了。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In the village in which she lived, Mr. Thornton kept a store where he sold fruit of all kinds, including berries in their season. One day he said to Amy, whose parents were quite poor, “Would you like to earn some money? ”(在她居住的村子里，桑顿先生开了一家商店，出售各种水果，包括当季的浆果。有一天，他对父母很穷的艾米说：“你想赚点钱吗？”)”可知，桑顿先生让艾米去摘浆果是为了让她赚点钱。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段““Well, Amy,” said Mr. Thornton, “I noticed some fine, ripe blackberries in Mr. Green’s field today, and he said that anybody was welcome to them. I will pay you thirteen cents a quart (度量单位) for all you will pick for me”(“嗯，艾米，”桑顿先生说，“我今天在格林先生的田里看到了一些又好又熟的黑莓，他说任何人都可以采摘。你帮我采摘一夸脱，我会付给你十三美分。”)”可知，如果艾米想赚钱，她应该拿一个篮子，快速采摘浆果。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Amy was a dear little girl, but she often tended to waste time in getting ready to do her tasks, instead of doing them at once as she ought to.(艾米是一个可爱的小女孩，但她往往会浪费时间准备做事，而不是像她应该的那样立即完成它们。)”和倒数第二段“Amy then found out what Mr. Thornton would pay her for fifty, a hundred, and two hundred quarts. It took her some time to do this, and then it was so near dinner time that she had to stay at home until afternoon.(艾米随后得知桑顿先生愿意为她支付五十夸脱、一百夸脱和两百夸脱的酒钱。她花了不少时间才搞清楚，但此时已经快到晚餐时间了，她不得不待在家里直到下午)”可知，艾米只顾计算能挣多少钱，迟迟采取行动去摘黑莓，以至于最后黑莓被摘光了，由此可推知，艾米是理想化而不切实际的。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了一个叫Amy的小女孩，总是光想事不做事。一天，Mr. Thornton叫她去农场摘黑莓，告诉她这是一个挣钱的好机会，可是Amy迟迟不去，一直在算她能挣多少钱，最后等她到了农场发现，黑莓都被摘光了，以至于最后没有挣到钱。D项“艾米没有赚到的钱。”适合作文章标题，故选D。 C What exactly is an audiobook today? Is it a book? Is it a play? Or is it becoming something else entirely? What is clear is that a push for market dominance is driving it into a new trend. Amazon-owned Audible, the market leader, hired the Oscar-winning director Sam Mendes to record multi-voice versions of the Dickens novels Oliver Twist and David Copperfield, making audiobooks the performing of the plays, and announced last month that it had reached an agreement for a recording of JK Rowling’s Harry Potter series, voiced by more than 100 actors and featuring a “groundbreaking new soundscape”. The new Potter audiobooks, it said, would not take over but maintain conventional recordings by Stephen Fry and Jim Dale, which Audible also hosts. To say that audio versions are different does not mean they are worse than printed texts. For people with dyslexia (阅读障碍) or ADHD (多动症), they can be a lifeline — as they can be for those who do not have time, or the habit, of reading books. Commuters, and men between the ages of 25 and 44, have been identified as key drivers of their growing popularity. The good news for those who secretly find audiobooks more accessible, but are embarrassed to admit it, is that brain scans have revealed that they stimulate the same cognitive and emotional parts of the brain. But so would a radio play. Listening to stories, another intriguing piece of research revealed, sets the pulse racing far more than watching them. So while we celebrate what audiobooks have in common with their print versions — both enable the brain to create its own pictures in a world where pre-manufactured images too often do all the work for us — we should also appreciate that they are translations into a different medium, even when read by the authors themselves. What is certain is that there is room for both. 8. What’s the function of Paragraph 1? A. To introduce a scientific study. B. To lead in the topic. C. To describe an experience. D. To give an example. 9. What is the new trend of audiobooks? A. Employing talented performers. B. Using prize-winning novels. C. Replacing traditional recording. D. Making them into plays. 10. What is the benefit of audiobooks? A. They motivate the cognitive-emotional brain. B. They promote relaxation for busy individuals. C. They make reading accessible for the disabled. D. They are most likely to decrease the sense of thrill. 11. What’s the author’s attitude towards audiobooks? A. Worried. B. Hopeful C. Uncertain. D. Curious. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。为了迎合市场，有声书显示了向戏剧表演转变的趋势，文章介绍了其好处和发展前景。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“What exactly is an audiobook today? Is it a book? Is it a play? Or is it becoming something else entirely? What is clear is that a push for market dominance is driving it into a new trend.(今天的有声书到底是什么？是一本书吗？是戏剧吗？或者它正在变成完全不同的东西？显而易见的是，对市场主导地位的追求正将其推向一种新趋势。)”和第二段第一句“Amazon-owned Audible, the market leader, hired the Oscar-winning director Sam Mendes to record multi-voice versions of the Dickens novels Oliver Twist and David Copperfield, making audiobooks the performing of the plays, and announced last month that it had reached an agreement for a recording of JK Rowling’s Harry Potter series, voiced by more than 100 actors and featuring a “groundbreaking new soundscape”.(亚马逊旗下的Audible公司聘请奥斯卡获奖导演萨姆•门德斯录制狄更斯小说《雾都孤儿》和《大卫•科波菲尔》的多声部版本，并将有声读物变成戏剧表演。该公司上月宣布，已与JK•罗琳的《哈利•波特》系列达成协议，录制由100多位演员配音的《哈利•波特》系列，采用“突破性的新音景”。)”可知，文章主要是讲关于有声书的话题，第一段的作用是引入主题。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Amazon-owned Audible, the market leader, hired the Oscar-winning director Sam Mendes to record multi-voice versions of the Dickens novels Oliver Twist and David Copperfield, making audiobooks the performing of the plays, and announced last month that it had reached an agreement for a recording of JK Rowling’s Harry Potter series, voiced by more than 100 actors and featuring a “groundbreaking new soundscape”.(亚马逊旗下的Audible公司聘请奥斯卡获奖导演萨姆•门德斯录制狄更斯小说《雾都孤儿》和《大卫•科波菲尔》的多声部版本，并将有声读物变成戏剧表演。该公司上月宣布，已与JK•罗琳的《哈利•波特》系列达成协议，录制由100多位演员配音的《哈利•波特》系列，采用“突破性的新音景”。)”可知，有声书的新趋势是变成戏剧。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“The good news for those who secretly find audiobooks more accessible, but are embarrassed to admit it, is that brain scans have revealed that they stimulate the same cognitive and emotional parts of the brain.(对于那些暗自觉得有声书更容易接近，但又不好意思承认的人来说，好消息是，脑部扫描显示，有声书刺激的是大脑中同样的认知和情感部分。)”可知，有声书的好处是它们激发了大脑的认知和情感部分。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“So while we celebrate what audiobooks have in common with their print versions — both enable the brain to create its own pictures in a world where pre-manufactured images too often do all the work for us — we should also appreciate that they are translations into a different medium, even when read by the authors themselves. What is certain is that there is room for both.(因此，当我们庆祝有声书与纸质书的共同之处时——两者都能让大脑在一个预先制作的图像经常为我们做所有工作的世界里创造自己的图像——我们也应该感谢它们被翻译成不同的媒介，即使是由作者自己阅读。可以肯定的是，两者都有发展空间。)”可知，作者对有声读物的态度是充满希望的。故选B。 D Researchers have discovered that limiting a certain enzyme (酶) can have a dramatic impact in protecting against the effects of Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔兹海默症). The finding could lead to a new class of drugs that fight the disease. Much of the historical research into Alzheimer’s disease(AD) has focused on plaques (斑块) that form in the brain, which recently, though, have been found not likely to be the direct cause of it. In seeking another way forward, a group of British researchers turned to an Australian study which showed having the gene for the production of an enzyme known as PDE4B was identified as a risk factor for developing Alzheimer’s. With the intention of investigating how PDE4B might affect the brain, the UK team genetically modified (改造) mice with Alzheimer’s to reduce PDE4B activity. The results are astonishing. First, the mice with Alzheimer’s and normal PDE4B expression showed memory loss in the sense of direction, a distinctive characteristic of AD. But those who had the genetic modification to have less PDE4B activity showed no damage at all. The team also observed that inflammation (炎症), another hallmark of AD, decreased to some extent in the brains of mice with less PDE4B activity, compared to those with more of the enzyme. Because all of these effects were found in the mice that already had Alzheimer’s but had significant improvement in symptoms, the researchers say that further investigation into how to limit PDE4B in human patients with the condition could lead to new treatment pathways. “These results offer real hope for the development of new treatments that will benefit patients with Alzheimer’s disease in the future,” said Neil Dawson, a co- author of the study. “The next stage is to test whetherPDE4B- limiting drugs have similar beneficial effects in the AD mouse model, to test their potential effectiveness in human Alzheimer’s disease.” 12. How did the British researchers get the inspiration? A. By figuring out the direct cause of AD. B. By going over much historical research. C. By referring to a previous Australian study. D. By breaking down PDE4B in the AD mouse. 13. What can be learnt about PDE4B? A. Its activity promotes the sense of direction. B. It might bring about the development of AD. C. It is processed by a certain enzyme in the brain. D. It will be investigated to reduce mice brain activity. 14 What does the underlined word “hallmark” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Cause. B. Feature. C. Principle. D. Finding. 15. What do the last two paragraphs mainly talk about? A. The future research focus. B. The existing research background. C. The probable research limitation. D. The practical research application. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了限制PDE4B酶对阿尔兹海默症的影响及其研究前景。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“a group of British researchers turned to an Australian study which showed having the gene for the production of an enzyme known as PDE4B was identified as a risk factor for developing Alzheimer’s (一组英国研究人员参考了一项澳大利亚研究，该研究表明，拥有生产一种名为PDE4B的酶的基因被确定为患阿尔兹海默症的风险因素。)”可知，英国研究人员是通过参考之前的澳大利亚研究获得灵感的。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“a group of British researchers turned to an Australian study which showed having the gene for the production of an enzyme known as PDE4B was identified as a risk factor for developing Alzheimer’s (一组英国研究人员参考了一项澳大利亚研究，该研究表明，拥有生产一种名为PDE4B的酶的基因被确定为患阿尔兹海默症的风险因素。)”可知，PDE4B可能会导致阿尔兹海默症的发展。故选B。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第四段中的“a distinctive characteristic of AD.(阿尔兹海默症一个显著特征)”“The team also observed that inflammation (炎症), another hallmark of AD (研究团队还观察到，炎症——阿尔兹海默症的另一个标志)”可知，hallmark意为“特征”。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“the researchers say that further investigation into how to limit PDE4B in human patients with the condition could lead to new treatment pathways. (研究人员表示，进一步研究如何在患有这种疾病的人类患者中限制PDE4B的活性可能会开辟新的治疗途径。)”可知，文章最后两段内容主要讲述了未来的研究重点。故选A。 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。 Whether someone makes you angry, you’re upset with yourself, or you’re just having a bad day, one of the best ways to direct your angry energy is through exercise.

On one of the days, my teacher paired Madhuri, who I had never talked to, and me to sit next to each other. I noticed that she seemed very anxious. I asked her what was wrong. She remained silent at first, but eventually, she told me that she had three sisters in her family and that her father couldn’t afford school books for all of them. My primary school was strict, as was the standard then, and if you didn’t have your school books the teacher would make you leave the class. Madhuri was very anxious that day because she thought that the teacher would tell her to leave the class. When the teacher saw that she didn’t have the books, he told Madhuri that she couldn’t attend class for a week. Madhuri was very upset. I felt so bad when I saw her pain that I decided to help her. I went to speak to her and offered to buy the books for her. She refused my offer to help. She had very strong principles and she would never accept things bought by others. When I got home from school I told my mom the story. She said that it was good that I had tried to help but I should stop worrying about it because there was nothing more that I could do if she had refused my offer to help. I couldn’t stop worrying about it though. 注意：1续写词数共150左右; 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好; 3.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Then I had an idea. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next day, I got up early so that I could go to her house before going to school. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Then I had an idea. My older brother, who had once used the same series of books, graduated from school last year. Why not turn to him for help? Maybe those old books were the solution to the problem. They wouldn’t cost anything so Madhuri could accept without any pressure. I went to mom and my brother immediately. After hearing Madhuri’s situation and my plan, my brother was quite willing to help. We sorted out the needed books for Madhuri together very quickly. Looking at the neatly piled books, I felt quite satisfied and delighted but suddenly a concern flashed across my mind, “Would Madhuri mind they are second-hand books?” The next day, I got up early so that I could go to her house before going to school. Not knowing what would happen and not sure whether she would accept the books or not, I knocked at the door nervously. When the door opened, I could see her surprised expression. Hearing that these books were old books of my brother, she accepted them without hesitation. I also got a weight off my mind. On the way to school, I could see from her face how happy she was. From that day on, something changed and as the day passed and the years moved on, Madhuri and I became best friends. 【解析】 【导语】本文以交友为线索展开，讲述了作者在学校无奈地和不喜欢的同学Madhuri做了同桌之后，发现Madhuri因为买不起课本，很焦虑，作者想要为她买课本，Madhuri坚持不接受别人给买的东西。最终作者想到好主意，找到用过的一套旧课本送给了Madhuri，Madhuri很高兴地接受了帮助，最后两个人成为好朋友的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后我有了一个主意。”可知，第一段可描写作者想出帮助Madhuri的好主意，找到一套旧课本，打算送给Madhuri。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天，我起得很早，这样我就可以在去学校之前去她家。”可知，第二段可描写作者给Madhuri送课本的过程，以及Madhuri接受课本情况等。 2.续写线索：想出办法——帮助——满意——高兴——惊讶——接受——开心 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.帮助：help/assist/do sb a favour ②.接受：accept/take ③.（时间）流逝：pass→go on 情绪类 ①. 满意的：satisfied/content ②. 高兴的：delighted/pleased/joyful/cheerful ③.惊讶的：surprised/amazed/astonished 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B Amy was a dear little girl, but she often tended to waste time in getting ready to do her tasks, instead of doing them at once as she ought to. In the village in which she lived, Mr. Thornton kept a store where he sold fruit of all kinds, including berries in their season. One day he said to Amy, whose parents were quite poor, “Would you like to earn some money? ” “Oh, yes,” replied she, “for I want some new shoes, and papa has no money to buy them with. ” “Well, Amy,” said Mr. Thornton, “I noticed some fine, ripe blackberries in Mr. Green’s field today, and he said that anybody was welcome to them. I will pay you thirteen cents a quart (度量单位) for all you will pick for me” Amy was delighted at the thought of earning some money; so she ran home to get a basket, intending to go immediately to pick the berries. Then she thought she would like to know how much money she would get if she picked five quarts. With the help of her slate (书写板) and pencil, she found out that she would get sixty-five cents. “But supposing I should pick a dozen quarts,” thought she, “how much should I earn then?” “Dear me!” she said, after figuring a while, “I should earn a dollar and fifty-six cents.” Amy then found out what Mr. Thornton would pay her for fifty, a hundred, and two hundred quarts. It took her some time to do this, and then it was so near dinner time that she had to stay at home until afternoon. As soon as dinner was over, she took her basket and hurried to the field. Some boys had been there before dinner, and all the ripe berries were picked. She could not find enough to fill a quart measure. 4. Why did Mr. Thornton invite Amy to pick berries? A. To help her buy new shoes. B. To help her make some money. C. To help her get rid of bad habits. D. To help her enter the fruit business. 5. What should Amy do if she wanted to earn the money? A.

Which one can be the best title of the story? A. Lost Blackberries. B. A Girl Picking Berries. C. How Much Amy Can Earn. D. The Money Amy Didn’t Earn. C What exactly is an audiobook today? Is it a book? Is it a play? Or is it becoming something else entirely? What is clear is that a push for market dominance is driving it into a new trend. Amazon-owned Audible, the market leader, hired the Oscar-winning director Sam Mendes to record multi-voice versions of the Dickens novels Oliver Twist and David Copperfield, making audiobooks the performing of the plays, and announced last month that it had reached an agreement for a recording of JK Rowling’s Harry Potter series, voiced by more than 100 actors and featuring a “groundbreaking new soundscape”. The new Potter audiobooks, it said, would not take over but maintain conventional recordings by Stephen Fry and Jim Dale, which Audible also hosts. To say that audio versions are different does not mean they are worse than printed texts. For people with dyslexia (阅读障碍) or ADHD (多动症), they can be a lifeline — as they can be for those who do not have time, or the habit, of reading books. Commuters, and men between the ages of 25 and 44, have been identified as key drivers of their growing popularity. The good news for those who secretly find audiobooks more accessible, but are embarrassed to admit it, is that brain scans have revealed that they stimulate the same cognitive and emotional parts of the brain. But so would a radio play. Listening to stories, another intriguing piece of research revealed, sets the pulse racing far more than watching them. So while we celebrate what audiobooks have in common with their print versions — both enable the brain to create its own pictures in a world where pre-manufactured images too often do all the work for us — we should also appreciate that they are translations into a different medium, even when read by the authors themselves. What is certain is that there is room for both. 8. What’s the function of Paragraph 1? A To introduce a scientific study. B. To lead in the topic. C. To describe an experience. D. To give an example. 9. What is the new trend of audiobooks? A. Employing talented performers. B. Using prize-winning novels. C. Replacing traditional recording. D. Making them into plays. 10. What is the benefit of audiobooks? A. They motivate the cognitive-emotional brain. B. They promote relaxation for busy individuals. C. They make reading accessible for the disabled. D. They are most likely to decrease the sense of thrill. 11. What’s the author’s attitude towards audiobooks? A. Worried. B. Hopeful C. Uncertain. D. Curious. D Researchers have discovered that limiting a certain enzyme (酶) can have a dramatic impact in protecting against the effects of Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔兹海默症). The finding could lead to a new class of drugs that fight the disease. Much of the historical research into Alzheimer’s disease(AD) has focused on plaques (斑块) that form in the brain, which recently, though, have been found not likely to be the direct cause of it. In seeking another way forward, a group of British researchers turned to an Australian study which showed having the gene for the production of an enzyme known as PDE4B was identified as a risk factor for developing Alzheimer’s. With the intention of investigating how PDE4B might affect the brain, the UK team genetically modified (改造) mice with Alzheimer’s to reduce PDE4B activity. The results are astonishing. First, the mice with Alzheimer’s and normal PDE4B expression showed memory loss in the sense of direction, a distinctive characteristic of AD. But those who had the genetic modification to have less PDE4B activity showed no damage at all. The team also observed that inflammation (炎症), another hallmark of AD, decreased to some extent in the brains of mice with less PDE4B activity, compared to those with more of the enzyme. Because all of these effects were found in the mice that already had Alzheimer’s but had significant improvement in symptoms, the researchers say that further investigation into how to limit PDE4B in human patients with the condition could lead to new treatment pathways. “These results offer real hope for the development of new treatments that will benefit patients with Alzheimer’s disease in the future,” said Neil Dawson, a co- author of the study. “The next stage is to test whetherPDE4B- limiting drugs have similar beneficial effects in the AD mouse model, to test their potential effectiveness in human Alzheimer’s disease.” 12. How did the British researchers get the inspiration? A. By figuring out the direct cause of AD. B. By going over much historical research. C. By referring to a previous Australian study. D. By breaking down PDE4B in the AD mouse. 13. What can be learnt about PDE4B? A. Its activity promotes the sense of direction. B. It might bring about the development of AD. C. It is processed by a certain enzyme in the brain. D. It will be investigated to reduce mice brain activity. 14. What does the underlined word “hallmark” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Cause. B. Feature. C. Principle. D. Finding. 15. What do the last two paragraphs mainly talk about? A. The future research focus. B. The existing research background. C. The probable research limitation. D. The practical research application. 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。 Whether someone makes you angry, you’re upset with yourself, or you’re just having a bad day, one of the best ways to direct your angry energy is through exercise.

On one of the days, my teacher paired Madhuri, who I had never talked to, and me to sit next to each other. I noticed that she seemed very anxious. I asked her what was wrong. She remained silent at first, but eventually, she told me that she had three sisters in her family and that her father couldn’t afford school books for all of them. My primary school was strict, as was the standard then, and if you didn’t have your school books the teacher would make you leave the class. Madhuri was very anxious that day because she thought that the teacher would tell her to leave the class. When the teacher saw that she didn’t have the books, he told Madhuri that she couldn’t attend class for a week. Madhuri was very upset. I felt so bad when I saw her pain that I decided to help her. I went to speak to her and offered to buy the books for her. She refused my offer to help. She had very strong principles and she would never accept things bought by others. When I got home from school I told my mom the story. She said that it was good that I had tried to help but I should stop worrying about it because there was nothing more that I could do if she had refused my offer to help. I couldn’t stop worrying about it though. 注意：1.续写词数共150左右; 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好; 3.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Then I had an idea. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next day, I got up early so that I could go to her house before going to school. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力 1-5 CABAB 6-10 CACAB 11-15 ACABC 16-20 BACCB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
