B Each morning at 6 o’clock, even on weekends, Kamaljeet Singh, 57, is up and out of the house. He starts by spending three hours helping distribute food to nearly two dozen drop-off locations across Delhi, India, and then checks on the many facilities run by the volunteer organization he leads with his brother, Premjit. The organization, Veerji Ka Dera, was founded in 1989 by their father, Trilokchan Singh. Trilokchan and his helpers began supporting one of India’s most underserved groups: the migrant workers who came to Delhi from rural areas. It started with a free breakfast, and eventually the group was also providing basic first aid for minor, often job-related, injuries. During this time, Trilokchan would begin his days as early as 4 o’clock in the morning, then go to his paid job 5 hours later, and end each day by volunteering in the evenings. After his death, Kamaljeet and Premjit, inspired by their father’s lifetime of service, took over the organization. “We are continuing his legacy of helping the poorest of the poor,” says Premjit, 61, “Our aim is that no one goes hungry and uncared for in Delhi.” Veerji Ka Dera now feeds about 2,500 daily wage workers and homeless people a day, in addition to providing basic medical care for as many as 500 people. The group operates a main building in west Delhi, several rented farms - growing crops such as wheat, mustard, millet and rice - an old-age home and clinics. It even operates an animal shelter housing a few hundred rescued cows and buffalo. It’s all made possible by the roughly 250 families who volunteer their time to cook, drive, nurse, farm and clean. Kamaljeet and his wife, Raminder, juggle their volunteer work with managing their security-camera installation (设备) company, and they get help from their son and daughter-in-law, too. His other adult children, who now live abroad, have volunteered in the past, as have Premjit’s kids. Despite the size and scope of the organization, the brothers claim it causes them no stress. Kamaljeet says spending time with his brother and the volunteers especially - young people- is “the best”. 4. What can we learn about Kamaljeet from Paragraph 1? A. He routinely helps those in need. B. He is fond of getting up early. C. He sets up Veerji Ka Dera. D. He can have a rest on weekends. 5. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Trilokchan? A. To comment on his work. B. To compare his work with his sons’. C. To show his influence on his sons. D. To describe his tough living conditions. 6. What does the underlined word “juggle” mean in Paragraph 5? A. Combine. B. Share. C. Connect. D. Balance. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. A caring family tradition. B. A worthy organization. C. A mysterious tale. D. A meaningful experience. C Imagine you’re at a football game when this rude man sits next to you. He’s loud, he spills his drink on you, and he makes fun of your team. Days later, you’re walking in the park when suddenly it starts to rain heavily. The same guy from the football game offers you an umbrella. Do you change your mind about him based on this second meeting, or do you go with your first impression and write him off? Related research suggests that we’re quick to form lasting impressions of others based on their behaviors. On the one hand, learning very bad, highly immoral (不道德) information about someone usually has a stronger influence than learning very good, highly moral information. This is because immoral behaviors can better show a person’s true character. On the other hand, when forming and updating our opinions about others, people tend to give more importance to behaviors that are seen as less common. When thinking about others’ actions, certain areas in the brain will become active. This brain activity is connected to how often people think these behaviors happen in daily life. In other words, the brain tries to decide if the person’s behavior is common or unusual. There’s a good meaning in this data: your brain, and you, might care more about the very bad, immoral things another person has done compared (比较) to the very good, moral things, but it’s a direct result of the comparative rareness of those bad behaviors. In the situation with the rude-football-fan-turned-good-person, your brain says, “Well, in my experience, pretty much anyone would lend someone their umbrella, but the way this guy acted at the football game, that was unusual.” And so, you decide to go with your first impression. Think about the last time you judged someone based on their behavior, especially a time when you really feel like you changed your mind about someone. Was the behavior that caused you to update your impression something you’d expect anyone to do, or was it something totally out of the ordinary? 8. What does the underlined words “write him off” mean in paragraph 1? A. Ignore him. B. Forgive him. C. Accept him. D. Follow him. 9. Why do bad behaviors have a stronger influence? A. They are more memorable. B. They are seen as less common. C. They could form lasting impressions. D. They better present a person’s true nature. 10. Which of the following is your final impression to “the man”? A. Noisy. B. Impolite. C. Kind. D. Careful. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. The importance of first impressions. B. A rude-football-fan-turned-good-person. C. How to leave a good impression on others? D. What will influence your impression of others? D Technology is never a neutral tool for achieving human ends. Technological innovations reshape people as they use these innovations to control their environment. Artificial intelligence, for example, is altering humanity. While the term AI conjures up anxieties about killer robots or catastrophic levels of unemployment, there are other, deeper implications. As AI increasingly shapes the human experience, how does this change what it means to be human? Central to the problem is a person’s capacity to make choices, particularly judgments that have moral implications. Aristotle argued that the capacity for making practical judgments depends on regularly making them — on habit and practice. We see the emergence of machines as substitute judges in a variety of everyday contexts as a potential threat to people learning how to effectively exercise judgment themselves. In the workplace, managers routinely make decisions about who to hire or fire and which loan to approve, to name a few. These are areas where algorithmic (算法的) prescription is replacing human judgment, and so people who might have had the chance to develop practical judgment in these areas no longer will. Recommendation engines, which are increasingly prevalent intermediaries in people’s consumption of culture, may serve to constrain choice and minimize luck. By presenting consumers with algorithmically selected choices of what to watch, read, stream and visit next, companies are replacing human taste with machine taste. In one sense, this is helpful. After all, machines can survey a wider range of choices than any individual is likely to have the time or energy to do on their own. At the same time, though, this selection is optimizing for what people are likely to prefer based on what they’ve preferred in the past. We think there is some risk that people’s options will be constrained by their past in a new and unanticipated way. As machine learning algorithms improve and as they train on more extensive data sets, larger parts of everyday life are likely to become utterly predictable. The predictions are going to get better and better, and they will ultimately make common experiences more efficient and pleasant. Algorithms could soon — if they don’t already — have a better idea about which show you’d like to watch next and which job candidate you should hire than you do. One day, humans may even find a way for machines to make these decisions without some of the biases that humans typically display. But to the extent that unpredictability is part of how people understand themselves and part of what people like about themselves, humanity is in the process of losing something significant. As they become more and more predictable, the creatures inhabiting the increasingly AI-mediated world will become less and less like us. 12. What do we learn about the deeper implications of AI? A. It is causing catastrophic levels of unemployment. B. It is doing physical harm to human operators. C. It is altering moral judgments. D. It is reshaping humanity. 13. What is the consequence of algorithmic prescription replacing human judgment? A. Managers no longer have the chance to decide which loan to approve. B. People are prevented from participating in making major decisions in the workplace. C. People lose the chance to cultivate the ability to make practical judgments. D. Managers do not need to take the trouble to determine who to hire or fire. 14. What may result from increasing application of recommendation engines in our consumption of culture? A. Consumers will actually enjoy better luck. B. Consumers will have much limited choice. C. It will be easier to decide on what to enjoy. D. Humans will develop tastes similar to machines’. 15. Why does the author say the creatures living in the more and more AI-mediated world will become increasingly unlike us? A. They will no longer possess the human characteristic of being unpredictable. B. They will have lost the most significant human element of being intelligent. C. They will not be able to understand themselves as we can do today. D. They will be deprived of what their predecessors were proud of about themselves. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Uplifting words When you see your friends or loved ones feeling down or being met with some setbacks at school or work, you might want to offer them a pep talk.

It started with a free breakfast, and eventually the group was also providing basic first aid for minor, often job-related, injuries. During this time, Trilokchan would begin his days as early as 4 o’clock in the morning, then go to his paid job 5 hours later, and end each day by volunteering in the evenings. After his death, Kamaljeet and Premjit, inspired by their father’s lifetime of service, took over the organization. “We are continuing his legacy of helping the poorest of the poor,” says Premjit, 61, “Our aim is that no one goes hungry and uncared for in Delhi.” Veerji Ka Dera now feeds about 2,500 daily wage workers and homeless people a day, in addition to providing basic medical care for as many as 500 people. The group operates a main building in west Delhi, several rented farms - growing crops such as wheat, mustard, millet and rice - an old-age home and clinics. It even operates an animal shelter housing a few hundred rescued cows and buffalo. It’s all made possible by the roughly 250 families who volunteer their time to cook, drive, nurse, farm and clean. Kamaljeet and his wife, Raminder, juggle their volunteer work with managing their security-camera installation (设备) company, and they get help from their son and daughter-in-law, too. His other adult children, who now live abroad, have volunteered in the past, as have Premjit’s kids. Despite the size and scope of the organization, the brothers claim it causes them no stress. Kamaljeet says spending time with his brother and the volunteers especially - young people- is “the best”. 4. What can we learn about Kamaljeet from Paragraph 1? A. He routinely helps those in need. B. He is fond of getting up early. C. He sets up Veerji Ka Dera. D. He can have a rest on weekends. 5. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Trilokchan? A. To comment on his work. B. To compare his work with his sons’. C. To show his influence on his sons. D. To describe his tough living conditions. 6. What does the underlined word “juggle” mean in Paragraph 5? A. Combine. B. Share. C. Connect. D. Balance. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. A caring family tradition. B. A worthy organization. C. A mysterious tale. D. A meaningful experience. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文主要介绍了一个值得称赞的组织。 4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“He starts by spending three hours helping distribute food to nearly two dozen drop-off locations across Delhi, India (他首先要花3个小时帮助分发食物到印度德里的近24个投递点)”可知，Kamaljeet每天早上都帮助分发食物，说明他经常帮助有需要的人。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Trilokchan and his helpers began supporting one of India’s most underserved groups: the migrant workers who came to Delhi from rural areas. (Trilokchan和他的助手们开始支持印度最缺乏服务的群体之一：从农村地区来到德里的农民工。)”以及根据第三段“After his death, Kamaljeet and Premjit, inspired by their father’s lifetime of service, took over the organization. (父亲去世后，卡玛吉特和普雷姆吉特受到父亲一生服务的启发，接管了这个组织。)”可知，提到Trilokchan是为了展示他对儿子的影响，因为他的服务精神激励了Kamaljeet和Premjit接管组织。故选C。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“Kamaljeet and his wife, Raminder, juggle their volunteer work with managing their security-camera installation (设备) company, and they get help from their son and daughter-in-law, too. (卡姆杰特和妻子拉姆辛德要juggle志愿者工作和管理他们的监控摄像头安装公司，他们还得到了儿子和儿媳的帮助。)”可知，他们还得到了儿子和儿媳的帮助，说明卡姆杰特和妻子拉姆辛德要平衡志愿者工作和管理他们的监控摄像头安装公司。故划线词的意思是“平衡”。故选D。 7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The organization, Veerji Ka Dera, was founded in 1989 by their father, Trilokchan Singh. (这个名为Veerji Ka Dera的组织由他们的父亲Trilokchan Singh于1989年创立。)”根据第二段“Trilokchan and his helpers began supporting one of India’s most underserved groups: the migrant workers who came to Delhi from rural areas. It started with a free breakfast, and eventually the group was also providing basic first aid for minor, often job-related, injuries. ( Trilokchan和他的助手们开始支持印度最缺乏服务的群体之一：从农村地区来到德里的农民工。一开始是提供免费早餐，后来该组织还为轻微的、通常与工作有关的伤害提供基本的急救。)”根据最后一段“Despite the size and scope of the organization, the brothers claim it causes them no stress. (尽管这个组织的规模和范围都很大，但兄弟俩声称这并没有给他们带来压力。)”可知，短文主要是关于一个值得称赞的组织。故选B。 C Imagine you’re at a football game when this rude man sits next to you. He’s loud, he spills his drink on you, and he makes fun of your team. Days later, you’re walking in the park when suddenly it starts to rain heavily. The same guy from the football game offers you an umbrella. Do you change your mind about him based on this second meeting, or do you go with your first impression and write him off? Related research suggests that we’re quick to form lasting impressions of others based on their behaviors. On the one hand, learning very bad, highly immoral (不道德) information about someone usually has a stronger influence than learning very good, highly moral information. This is because immoral behaviors can better show a person’s true character. On the other hand, when forming and updating our opinions about others, people tend to give more importance to behaviors that are seen as less common. When thinking about others’ actions, certain areas in the brain will become active. This brain activity is connected to how often people think these behaviors happen in daily life. In other words, the brain tries to decide if the person’s behavior is common or unusual. There’s a good meaning in this data: your brain, and you, might care more about the very bad, immoral things another person has done compared (比较) to the very good, moral things, but it’s a direct result of the comparative rareness of those bad behaviors. In the situation with the rude-football-fan-turned-good-person, your brain says, “Well, in my experience, pretty much anyone would lend someone their umbrella, but the way this guy acted at the football game, that was unusual.” And so, you decide to go with your first impression. Think about the last time you judged someone based on their behavior, especially a time when you really feel like you changed your mind about someone. Was the behavior that caused you to update your impression something you’d expect anyone to do, or was it something totally out of the ordinary? 8. What does the underlined words “write him off” mean in paragraph 1? A. Ignore him. B. Forgive him. C. Accept him. D. Follow him. 9. Why do bad behaviors have a stronger influence? A. They are more memorable. B. They are seen as less common. C. They could form lasting impressions. D. They better present a person’s true nature. 10. Which of the following is your final impression to “the man”? A. Noisy. B. Impolite. C. Kind. D. Careful. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. The importance of first impressions. B. A rude-football-fan-turned-good-person. C. How to leave a good impression on others? D. What will influence your impression of others? 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章说明了人们很快就会根据他人的行为对他们形成持久的印象以及影响对别人印象的因素。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第一段“Do you change your mind about him based on this second meeting, or do you go with your first impression and write him off? (你会因为这第二次会面而改变对他的看法吗，还是根据你的第一印象write him off？)”可知，画线词前说明的是改变对那个粗鲁的男人的看法；画线词与本句为选择关系，所以此处应该表示的是继续对他的第一印象，忽视对他现在提供雨伞的行为。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“On the one hand, learning very bad, highly immoral (不道德) information about someone usually has a stronger influence than learning very good, highly moral information. This is because immoral behaviors can better show a person’s true character. (一方面，学习关于某人的非常糟糕、非常不道德的信息通常比学习非常好、非常道德的信息具有更强的影响力。这是因为不道德的行为更能显示一个人的真实性格。)”可知，是因为不道德的行为更能体现一个人的真实性格。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Imagine you’re at a football game when this rude man sits next to you. He’s loud, he spills his drink on you, and he makes fun of your team. (想象一下，当你在看足球比赛时，这个粗鲁的男人坐在你旁边。他很吵，把饮料洒在你身上，还取笑你的团队。)”以及第四段“There’s a good meaning in this data: your brain, and you, might care more about the very bad, immoral things another person has done compared (比较) to the very good, moral things, but it’s a direct result of the comparative rareness of those bad behaviors. (这些数据有一个好的含义：你的大脑和你，可能更关心别人做过的非常坏的、不道德的事情，而不是非常好的、道德的事情，但这是对这些坏行为相对较少的直接结果。)”可知，那位男人一开始是粗鲁的；根据研究表明你的大脑和你，可能更关心别人做过的非常坏的、不道德的事情，而不是非常好的、道德的事情，所以对那位男士的印象是不礼貌的。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Do you change your mind about him based on this second meeting, or do you go with your first impression and write him off? (看足球赛的那个人给了你一把伞。你会因为第二次见面而改变对他的看法吗，还是会继续你的第一印象，把他一笔勾销?)”以及第二段“Related research suggests that we’re quick to form lasting impressions of others based on their behaviors. (相关研究表明，我们很快就会根据他人的行为对他们形成持久的印象。)”以及全文内容可知，本文主要说明的是“影响对别人印象的因素”，“什么会影响你对他人的印象？”适合做标题。故选D。 D Technology is never a neutral tool for achieving human ends. Technological innovations reshape people as they use these innovations to control their environment. Artificial intelligence, for example, is altering humanity. While the term AI conjures up anxieties about killer robots or catastrophic levels of unemployment, there are other, deeper implications. As AI increasingly shapes the human experience, how does this change what it means to be human? Central to the problem is a person’s capacity to make choices, particularly judgments that have moral implications. Aristotle argued that the capacity for making practical judgments depends on regularly making them — on habit and practice. We see the emergence of machines as substitute judges in a variety of everyday contexts as a potential threat to people learning how to effectively exercise judgment themselves. In the workplace, managers routinely make decisions about who to hire or fire and which loan to approve, to name a few. These are areas where algorithmic (算法的) prescription is replacing human judgment, and so people who might have had the chance to develop practical judgment in these areas no longer will. Recommendation engines, which are increasingly prevalent intermediaries in people’s consumption of culture, may serve to constrain choice and minimize luck. By presenting consumers with algorithmically selected choices of what to watch, read, stream and visit next, companies are replacing human taste with machine taste. In one sense, this is helpful. After all, machines can survey a wider range of choices than any individual is likely to have the time or energy to do on their own. At the same time, though, this selection is optimizing for what people are likely to prefer based on what they’ve preferred in the past. We think there is some risk that people’s options will be constrained by their past in a new and unanticipated way. As machine learning algorithms improve and as they train on more extensive data sets, larger parts of everyday life are likely to become utterly predictable. The predictions are going to get better and better, and they will ultimately make common experiences more efficient and pleasant. Algorithms could soon — if they don’t already — have a better idea about which show you’d like to watch next and which job candidate you should hire than you do. One day, humans may even find a way for machines to make these decisions without some of the biases that humans typically display. But to the extent that unpredictability is part of how people understand themselves and part of what people like about themselves, humanity is in the process of losing something significant. As they become more and more predictable, the creatures inhabiting the increasingly AI-mediated world will become less and less like us. 12. What do we learn about the deeper implications of AI? A. It is causing catastrophic levels of unemployment. B. It is doing physical harm to human operators. C. It is altering moral judgments. D. It is reshaping humanity. 13. What is the consequence of algorithmic prescription replacing human judgment? A. Managers no longer have the chance to decide which loan to approve. B. People are prevented from participating in making major decisions in the workplace. C. People lose the chance to cultivate the ability to make practical judgments. D. Managers do not need to take the trouble to determine who to hire or fire. 14. What may result from increasing application of recommendation engines in our consumption of culture? A. Consumers will actually enjoy better luck. B. Consumers will have much limited choice. C. It will be easier to decide on what to enjoy. D. Humans will develop tastes similar to machines’. 15. Why does the author say the creatures living in the more and more AI-mediated world will become increasingly unlike us? A. They will no longer possess the human characteristic of being unpredictable. B. They will have lost the most significant human element of being intelligent. C. They will not be able to understand themselves as we can do today. D. They will be deprived of what their predecessors were proud of about themselves. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了人工智能如何重塑人类，影响人类的判断和选择能力，让人类丧失其不可预测性，变得不再像自己。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Artificial intelligence, for example, is altering humanity. (例如，人工智能正在改变人类)”和第二段中“As AI increasingly shapes the human experience, how does this change what it means to be human? Central to the problem is a person’s capacity to make choices, particularly judgments that have moral implications. (随着人工智能越来越多地塑造人类体验，这将如何改变作为人类的意义？问题的核心是一个人做出选择的能力，尤其是具有道德含义的判断)”可推知，人工智能的深层含义是它正在改变人类的意义，即重塑人类。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“These are areas where algorithmic (算法的) prescription is replacing human judgment, and so people who might have had the chance to develop practical judgment in these areas no longer will. (在这些领域，算法正在取代人类的判断，因此，那些本有机会在这些领域发展实践判断的人将不再有机会)”可知，算法替代人类判断会导致人们失去培养实践判断能力的机会。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Recommendation engines, which are increasingly prevalent intermediaries in people’s consumption of culture, may serve to constrain choice and minimize luck. (推荐引擎作为人们文化消费中越来越普遍中介，可能会限制选择，使机遇最小化)”可知，越来越广泛的推荐引擎可能会限制消费者的选择。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But to the extent that unpredictability is part of how people understand themselves and part of what people like about themselves, humanity is in the process of losing something significant. As they become more and more predictable, the creatures inhabiting the increasingly AI-mediated world will become less and less like us. (但在某种程度上，不可预测性是人们理解自己的一部分，也是人们喜欢自己的一部分，人类正在失去一些重要的东西。随着它们变得越来越可预测，生活在日益以人工智能为媒介的世界中的生物将变得越来越不像我们)”可推知，不可预测性是人类的重要特性，而人工智能可能会导致这种不可预测性的丧失，因此作者认为生活在越来越以人工智能为媒介的世界里的生物将越来越不像我们。故选A项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Uplifting words When you see your friends or loved ones feeling down or being met with some setbacks at school or work, you might want to offer them a pep talk. A pep talk is usually a brief, intense and emotional talk designed to influence or encourage an audience. ____16____ Just saying what you think the other person wants to hear might not be enough. It requires an understanding of what your audience needs — whether it is simply cheering them up or motivating them to change. The column offers the following steps towards an effective pep talk. ● Step one is to listen. Don’t jump right in and insist: “you will be fine.” Show your friend that you understand how they feel and empathize.____17____ ● Express care and support. Show your friend that you believe in them.____18____ Talk about their strengths based on your knowledge about them. Saying things like: “You are a very resilient person.” “You are outgoing and friendly.” “You bounce back well.” Avoid general sentences like “You can overcome your fears.” or “Time heals.” ● Talk about hope. You can’t guarantee success.____19____ But you can remind the person that he or she has been through a tough time before and gotten through it. ● Be there. Make sure they know that you will be there for them, follow up with them after the pep talk. ● ____20____ Don’t argue if the person disagrees with what you are saying or tells you: “You don’t understand; this time is different.” Tell them: “I’m Sorry, you are having such a hard time.” Then back off. A. Know when to stop. B. Be sincere and specific. C. Carefully choose your words. D. But giving a good pep talk isn’t easy. E. Some problems might be out of anyone’s control. F.

A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要讲述了如何与人进行鼓舞人心的谈话，以有效地鼓舞士气。 【16题详解】 前一句“A pep talk is usually a brief, intense and emotional talk designed to influence or encourage an audience.(鼓舞人心的谈话通常是一个简短的，激烈的和情绪化的谈话，旨在影响或鼓励听众)”对“鼓舞人心的谈话”这一核心话题进行了正向解释，后一句“Just saying what you think the other person wants to hear might not be enough.(仅仅说你认为对方想听的话可能是不够的)”却在句意上进行了转折，由此可推知，设空句作为中间句，应是一个转折过渡句，既呼应核心话题，也能引出后文。选项D“But giving a good pep talk isn’t easy.(但是要给人打气并不容易)”是转折句，在主旨表达上呼应主题，且后文“Just saying what you think the other person wants to hear might not be enough.(仅仅说你认为对方想听的话可能是不够的)”也是对“ isn’t easy”的解释，前后衔接紧密。故选D项。 【17题详解】 前一句“Show your friend that you understand how they feel and empathize.(让你的朋友知道你理解他们的感受并感同身受)”提出“要让朋友知道你理解他们的感受”；设空句应具体讲述如何做，才能让朋友知道自己的理解。选项G“Repeat the person’s concerns so he or she feels that they have been heard.(重复对方所关心的问题，这样他或她就会觉得他们被倾听了)”讲到了做法：重复对方所关心的问题，表述“共情”，hear与小标题中的 listen相对应。故选G项。 【18题详解】 前一句“Show your friend that you believe in them.(让你的朋友知道你信任他们)”提到“要让朋友知道自己对他们的信任”，设空句紧跟其后，应是继续讲述如何表达信任和支持。选项F“Tell them they have what it takes to get through this hard time.(告诉他们，他们有能力度过难关)”讲到告知对方对他们的能力的信任，在句意上贴合前后语境，前后衔接紧密；同时“Tell”与后文的“Talk about”在词汇上运用了复现原则。故选F项。 【19题详解】 前一句“You can’t guarantee success.(你不能保证成功)”提到“不能保证成功”，此句置于句首，需要一个解释句，即，为什么这么说。选项E“Some problems might be out of anyone’s control.(有些问题可能是任何人都无法控制的。)”解释了原因：有些问题是无法控制的，因此，不能保证成功。故选E项。 【20题详解】 设空为该部分的主题句，应是该部分的核心主旨。根据后文“Tell them: ‘I’m Sorry, you are having such a hard time.’ Then back off.(告诉他们：‘我很抱歉，你遇到了这样的困难。’然后（为避免冲突）退后停止)”可知，该部分的核心主旨是“适时地停止”。选项A“Know when to stop.(适可而止)”符合该部分主旨。故选A项。 第三部分 语言运用(共五节，满分55分) 第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Last Christmas I volunteered for Waste Not Want Not Battersea (WNWNB), a charity which takes surplus (剩余的) produce from New Convent Garden Market and ____21____ it to the local community.
