But the next day, my mother passed away in her sleep during the night. After we laid my mother to rest, I went back to school, but I didn't care much to be there at all. Since it was a new term, my teachers didn't know me very well. My English teacher, Mr. Goldberg, would ask the class questions and call on people to answer. When he called on me, he'd pretty much be waking me up from wherever my mind would be. I'd say, “Excuse me? What was that?” He'd ask me again, and I'd have the correct answer. One day, he asked me to meet him after class. “I don’t understand what's going on,” he said. “You always seem lost. Your mind is always some place else during class, but you know all the answers." I told him the reason I came to school every day was because my mother made me. Now that she wasn't here, I didn't really feel the need to go anymore. Then he said, "Well, just do me a favor. I want you to meet me in my office during sixth period." So I met him, just to talk. Afterward, he said, “Meet me tomorrow, same time.” This went on and on, every single day. He had me meet him before class. I would help him grade papers, and we would talk. Mr. Goldberg went around to all my classes and talked to all my teachers. He said, “If you have any problems with Maxie Jones, come to me.” The next year, he did the same thing. I met with him every day, and he talked to all my teachers about whatever was going on with me. Again, he told them, “If you've got any problem with Maxie, come and talk to me.” By the time I graduated (毕业) from high school, I had never missed a single day of school. It took me years before I realized what he had done. I graduated from high school in the top 10% of my class. But at 15 having lost my mother and not really seeing the importance of learning—I was in line to be a high school dropout. I realized that the reason I showed up to school every day was because somebody there was expecting (期望) to see me. That somebody was Mr. Goldberg. I will just remember him for the rest of my life. 22. What difficulty did Maxie meet at the beginning of the new term? A. He lost his mother. B. He didn't rest well at home. C. He had few friends at school. D. He didn’t understand the class well. 23. How did Maxie do in Mr. Goldberg's class? A. He talked a lot with other students. B. He often answered questions quickly. C. His mind was always someplace else. D. He helped Mr. Goldberg grade papers. 24. Maxie will always remember Mr. Goldberg, because________. A. Mr. Goldberg paid for his books B. Mr. Goldberg played games with him C. Mr. Goldberg helped him stay in school D. Mr. Goldberg's class is the most interesting C Do you eat fish every week? Do you think eating fish may help protect our brains from air pollution? A new research studied some older women, who lived in places with high levels(等级) of air pollution. They found that those who had the lowest levels of omega-3 fatty acids(w-3脂肪酸) in their body had more brain shrinkage(脑萎缩) than women who had the highest levels. “Fish is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids and easy to add to the diet,” said Ka He from Columbia University. “Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to maintain brain structure(保持脑部结构) in aging brains. They have also been found to reduce brain damage caused by some neurotoxins(神经毒素). So we did the research to see if omega-3 fatty acids could help protect our brains from a certain toxin in air pollution.” The research studied 1,315 women with an average age of 70. Researchers asked the women how much fish they had each week and tested the amount of omega-3 fatty acids in their blood. The researchers also used the women’s home addresses to work out their three-year average exposure to air pollution, and then scanned(扫描)different areas of the women’s brains to see the change in the structure. After adjusting for(调控) age education, smoking and other factors that could affect(影响) brain shrinkage, researchers found that women who had the highest levels of omega-3 fatty acids in the blood had less change in white matter and hippocampus than those with the lowest levels, which are associated with signal sending and memory. “ It’s important to note that our study only found an association(联系) between maintaining brain structure and eating fish,” he said, “Higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids in the blood from eating fish may help maintain brain structure as women grow older and possibly fight against the bad effects of air pollution. However, more research is still needed.” 25. In the third paragraph, the writer shows us ________. A. when the study was planned B. why researchers did the study C. how the study was performed D. what researchers found in the study 26. What can we learn from the study? A Women have more brain shrinkage than men. B. Fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids has fewer neurotoxins. C. White matter and hippocampus can protect themselves from neurotoxins. D. High levels of omega-3 fatty acids may help fight against brain shrinkage. 27. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Does eating fish protect our brains from air pollution? B. How do aging brains affect older women’s thinking? C. Why can omega-3 fatty acids improve our memory? D. Can older women live longer by eating fish? D I have a question for all of us. Is all winning success? Winning is really, really fun. But I am here to share my idea: Winning does not always equal success. All around the world, we have created the win-at-all-cost culture. As a society, we honor the champion (冠军). We cheer for those people who win championships. Winning at all costs has become acceptable. We have become so focused on that end result instead of the process, and particularly when the end result is a win, usually how we got there often gets swept under the proverbial rug. We need to redefine (重新定义) success. Real success is developing champions in life for our world, win or lose. We may be able to plan our way to a win, but we can’t plan our way to success. Back to 1990, when I was first made the head coach of the UCLA Women’s Gymnastics Team, the best I could do was what other “successful” coaches had done. So, I became tough-talking and mean. I acted like a head coach whose only thought was to figure out how to win. After putting up with me for a few years, our team asked me for a team meeting. And for over two hours, they gave me examples of how my arrogance (傲慢) was hurtful. That was my time-out, and I chose to change. I realized that I needed to support our student athletes as whole human beings, not just athletes who won. It is so much easier to give orders than to actually figure out how to motivate (激励) someone to be better. And the motivation takes a really long time to take root. The key ingredient was to develop trust through patience and honesty. Let’s think about what you are talking with your parents on the car ride home. Are they focusing on the end result? Are you excited to use that time to show you are a winner? All of you care too much about the end result instead of your steps of learning. We are all coaches in some ways. We all have the responsibility to develop champions in life for our world. That is what real success looks like, and that is what we call a win-win. 28. The underlined phrase “gets swept under the proverbial rug” probably means “_________”. A. shows the result B. does some harm C. catches little attention D. decides the success 29. The writer mentions his experience as the head coach to show _________. A. it’s difficult to be a coach B. how his team won championships C. why his team asked him for a meeting D. it’s better to motivate others than to give orders 30. Which of the following is a real success in life? A. A kid who shows the medals and prizes he won to his parents. B. A player who tries to win a gold medal at the cost of his health. C. A coach who respects his members even though the team didn’t win. D. A parent who keeps asking about the grades his kid gets in the exams. 31. The writer probably agrees that _________. A. we shouldn’t plan for the end result B. winning doesn’ t always mean success C. a good coach often wants his team to win D it’ s time for us to change the way we live 四、任务型阅读（第32—34题每题2分，第35题4分，共10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Team Spirit Team spirit (精神) means the willingness of people to work together and help each other as part of a team. With this spirit, people try hard to make their team the best of all. Everyone has experienced team spirit one way or another, whether they were part of a team or saw a group of people cheer for their favorite player or team. There are different kinds of team spirit. One kind is the connection between a team of people because their efforts (努力) and cooperation are necessary in reaching a particular (特定的) goal. Another kind is when a group of people support a person or a team. Another is people’s natural love for and pride in their country, when a whole nation cheers for its country in competitions. Team spirit creates (创造) various good effects. It creates friendship and trust between people who may not get along when they don’t have such team spirit. There may also be bad effects (影响). Too great team spirit may cause arguments or fights with other team members. Some people don’t understand team spirit poperly. They think team spirit means having to become an official member of an organization, team or fan club. In fact, team spirit can be built anywhere—between friends, coworkers or even between two people sitting next to each other. You don’t have to be wearing the team spirit clothes. Anyone can show team spirit just by showing support for the goal. 32. What does team spirit mean? _____________________________________ 33.

But the next day, my mother passed away in her sleep during the night. After we laid my mother to rest, I went back to school, but I didn't care much to be there at all. Since it was a new term, my teachers didn't know me very well. My English teacher, Mr. Goldberg, would ask the class questions and call on people to answer. When he called on me, he'd pretty much be waking me up from wherever my mind would be. I'd say, “Excuse me? What was that?” He'd ask me again, and I'd have the correct answer. One day, he asked me to meet him after class. “I don’t understand what's going on,” he said. “You always seem lost. Your mind is always some place else during class, but you know all the answers." I told him the reason I came to school every day was because my mother made me. Now that she wasn't here, I didn't really feel the need to go anymore. Then he said, "Well, just do me a favor. I want you to meet me in my office during sixth period." So I met him, just to talk. Afterward, he said, “Meet me tomorrow, same time.” This went on and on, every single day. He had me meet him before class. I would help him grade papers, and we would talk. Mr. Goldberg went around to all my classes and talked to all my teachers. He said, “If you have any problems with Maxie Jones, come to me.” The next year, he did the same thing. I met with him every day, and he talked to all my teachers about whatever was going on with me. Again, he told them, “If you've got any problem with Maxie, come and talk to me.” By the time I graduated (毕业) from high school, I had never missed a single day of school. It took me years before I realized what he had done. I graduated from high school in the top 10% of my class. But at 15 having lost my mother and not really seeing the importance of learning—I was in line to be a high school dropout. I realized that the reason I showed up to school every day was because somebody there was expecting (期望) to see me. That somebody was Mr. Goldberg. I will just remember him for the rest of my life. 22. What difficulty did Maxie meet at the beginning of the new term? A. He lost his mother. B. He didn't rest well at home. C. He had few friends at school. D. He didn’t understand the class well. 23. How did Maxie do in Mr. Goldberg's class? A. He talked a lot with other students. B. He often answered questions quickly. C. His mind was always someplace else. D. He helped Mr. Goldberg grade papers. 24. Maxie will always remember Mr. Goldberg, because________. A. Mr. Goldberg paid for his books B. Mr. Goldberg played games with him C. Mr. Goldberg helped him stay in school D. Mr. Goldberg's class is the most interesting 【答案】22. A 23. C 24. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，介绍了作者读高中时母亲去世了，从此他觉得读书毫无意义；但是他的英语老师知道后，每天都叫他同一时间去办公室见他，此后，作者坚持继续学习，以优异的成绩毕业了。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据“But the next day, my mother passed away in her sleep during the night”，可知他在开始高中生活第二天就失去了他的母亲，故选A。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据英语老师说的话“Your mind is always some place else during class”，可知他总是走神，故选C。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据“I realized that the reason I showed up to school every day was because somebody there was expecting to see me”，可知是因为老师帮助他好好待在学校学习了，故选C。 C Do you eat fish every week? Do you think eating fish may help protect our brains from air pollution? A new research studied some older women, who lived in places with high levels(等级) of air pollution. They found that those who had the lowest levels of omega-3 fatty acids(w-3脂肪酸) in their body had more brain shrinkage(脑萎缩) than women who had the highest levels. “Fish is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids and easy to add to the diet,” said Ka He from Columbia University. “Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to maintain brain structure(保持脑部结构) in aging brains. They have also been found to reduce brain damage caused by some neurotoxins(神经毒素). So we did the research to see if omega-3 fatty acids could help protect our brains from a certain toxin in air pollution.” The research studied 1,315 women with an average age of 70. Researchers asked the women how much fish they had each week and tested the amount of omega-3 fatty acids in their blood. The researchers also used the women’s home addresses to work out their three-year average exposure to air pollution, and then scanned(扫描)different areas of the women’s brains to see the change in the structure. After adjusting for(调控) age, education, smoking and other factors that could affect(影响) brain shrinkage, researchers found that women who had the highest levels of omega-3 fatty acids in the blood had less change in white matter and hippocampus than those with the lowest levels, which are associated with signal sending and memory. “ It’s important to note that our study only found an association(联系) between maintaining brain structure and eating fish,” he said, “Higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids in the blood from eating fish may help maintain brain structure as women grow older and possibly fight against the bad effects of air pollution. However, more research is still needed.” 25. In the third paragraph, the writer shows us ________. A when the study was planned B. why researchers did the study C. how the study was performed D. what researchers found in the study 26. What can we learn from the study? A. Women have more brain shrinkage than men. B. Fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids has fewer neurotoxins. C. White matter and hippocampus can protect themselves from neurotoxins. D. High levels of omega-3 fatty acids may help fight against brain shrinkage. 27. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Does eating fish protect our brains from air pollution? B. How do aging brains affect older women’s thinking? C. Why can omega-3 fatty acids improve our memory? D. Can older women live longer by eating fish? 【答案】25. C 26. D 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了一项研究，研究内容是吃鱼是否有助于保护我们的大脑免受空气污染。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。阅读第三段可知，本段主要讲了研究人员调查了1315名平均年龄为70岁的女性，询问她们每周吃多少鱼，并测试了她们血液中omega-3脂肪酸的含量。研究人员还使用了这些女性的家庭住址，计算出她们三年里平均接触空气污染的情况，然后扫描这些女性大脑的不同区域，观察其结构的变化。所以第三段详细介绍了这项研究是如何进行的。故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“those who had the lowest levels of omega-3 fatty acids(w-3脂肪酸) in their body had more brain shrinkage(脑萎缩) than women who had the highest levels.”可知，omega-3脂肪酸含量低的人中脑萎缩的人更多，由此可推出高水平的omega-3脂肪酸可能有助于对抗大脑萎缩。故选D。 【27题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文，根据文章第一段“Do you think eating fish may help protect our brains from air pollution?”可知本文始终在围绕“吃鱼是否有助于保护我们的大脑免受空气污染”这一问题。A选项“吃鱼能保护我们的大脑不受空气污染吗？”最适合作为本文标题。故选A。 D I have a question for all of us. Is all winning success? Winning is really, really fun. But I am here to share my idea: Winning does not always equal success. All around the world, we have created the win-at-all-cost culture. As a society, we honor the champion (冠军). We cheer for those people who win championships. Winning at all costs has become acceptable. We have become so focused on that end result instead of the process, and particularly when the end result is a win, usually how we got there often gets swept under the proverbial rug. We need to redefine (重新定义) success. Real success is developing champions in life for our world, win or lose. We may be able to plan our way to a win, but we can’t plan our way to success. Back to 1990, when I was first made the head coach of the UCLA Women’s Gymnastics Team, the best I could do was what other “successful” coaches had done. So, I became tough-talking and mean. I acted like a head coach whose only thought was to figure out how to win. After putting up with me for a few years, our team asked me for a team meeting. And for over two hours, they gave me examples of how my arrogance (傲慢) was hurtful. That was my time-out, and I chose to change. I realized that I needed to support our student athletes as whole human beings, not just athletes who won. It is so much easier to give orders than to actually figure out how to motivate (激励) someone to be better. And the motivation takes a really long time to take root. The key ingredient was to develop trust through patience and honesty. Let’s think about what you are talking with your parents on the car ride home. Are they focusing on the end result? Are you excited to use that time to show you are a winner? All of you care too much about the end result instead of your steps of learning. We are all coaches in some ways. We all have the responsibility to develop champions in life for our world. That is what real success looks like, and that is what we call a win-win. 28. The underlined phrase “gets swept under the proverbial rug” probably means “_________”. A. shows the result B. does some harm C. catches little attention D. decides the success 29. The writer mentions his experience as the head coach to show _________. A. it’s difficult to be a coach B. how his team won championships C. why his team asked him for a meeting D. it’s better to motivate others than to give orders 30. Which of the following is a real success in life? A A kid who shows the medals and prizes he won to his parents. B. A player who tries to win a gold medal at the cost of his health. C. A coach who respects his members even though the team didn’t win. D. A parent who keeps asking about the grades his kid gets in the exams. 31. The writer probably agrees that _________. A. we shouldn’t plan for the end result B. winning doesn’ t always mean success C. a good coach often wants his team to win D. it’ s time for us to change the way we live 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. C 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了胜利并不等于成功，并用自己做教练的经历来论述这个观点，作者认为激励更加重要。 【28题详解】 词义猜测题。根据上文可知，人们更加专注于结果而不是过程。根据“and particularly when the end result is a win, usually how we got there often gets swept under the proverbial rug.”可知，how代表的是过程，人们对于过程是不太重视的。故选C。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“I realized that I needed to support our student athletes as whole human beings, not just athletes who won.”以及第六段“It is so much easier to give orders than to actually figure out how to motivate (激励) someone to be better.”可知，作者讲述做教练的经历是为了说明激励他人比命令他人更重要。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“I realized that I needed to support our student athletes as whole human beings, not just athletes who won.”可知，我意识到我需要支持我们的学生运动员，不仅仅是在他们取得胜利的时候，即使没有取得胜利也要尊重他们。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段最后一句“But I am here to share my idea: Winning does not always equal success.”可知，胜利并不等于成功。故选B。 四、任务型阅读（第32—34题每题2分，第35题4分，共10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Team Spirit Team spirit (精神) means the willingness of people to work together and help each other as part of a team. With this spirit, people try hard to make their team the best of all. Everyone has experienced team spirit one way or another, whether they were part of a team or saw a group of people cheer for their favorite player or team. There are different kinds of team spirit. One kind is the connection between a team of people because their efforts (努力) and cooperation are necessary in reaching a particular (特定的) goal. Another kind is when a group of people support a person or a team. Another is people’s natural love for and pride in their country, when a whole nation cheers for its country in competitions. Team spirit creates (创造) various good effects. It creates friendship and trust between people who may not get along when they don’t have such team spirit. There may also be bad effects (影响). Too great team spirit may cause arguments or fights with other team members. Some people don’t understand team spirit poperly. They think team spirit means having to become an official member of an organization, team or fan club. In fact, team spirit can be built anywhere—between friends, coworkers or even between two people sitting next to each other. You don’t have to be wearing the team spirit clothes. Anyone can show team spirit just by showing support for the goal. 32. What does team spirit mean? _____________________________________ 33.
