A friend suggested Zermat. The name alone was enough to interest me at once, so I did some research, bought a ticket, and soon found myself on a plane to Switzerland. Located in the south of the country, Zermat is known for its mountainous scenery. The town sits at the foot of the Matterhorn, one of the most famous mountains in the Alps. As my train moved towards Zermat, I couldn’t wait to see with my own eyes the shape of the great Matterhorn. I come from the busy city of Bangkok, and it was fascinating to find myself in a small town with fewer than 6,000 people. Throughout the year, Zermatt’s population increases very much with tourists. The town, which is famous for its outdoor activities, invites people to come to ski, hike, climb…anything, as long as they don’t bring their car. Before I got there, I found out that I wouldn’t be able to rent (租) a car. In fact, cars that use traditional oil are not allowed inside the town. That’s because the people of Zermatt are so proud of their view of the great Matterhorn that they don’t want it blocked by air pollution from cars. So visitors like me usually arrive in Zermat by train. I quite enjoyed being “car-free” and exploring the place on foot. I used one of the town’s electric taxis when I wanted to travel a bit further. I also took an electric bus once. But nothing was more fun than exploring the area in an old-fashioned horse-drawn carriage (四轮马车). I was happy to exchange the polluted skies of downtown Bangkok for the clean, clear mountain air. And until I experienced the peace and quiet in Zermatt, I didn’t realise how much traffic noise I hear every day. The town’s electric cars were practically silent. 19. Where is Zermatt located? A. In France. B. In Switzerland. C. In Italy. D. In Austria. 20. What is Zermatt famous for? A. Its beaches. B. Its nightlife. C. Its traditional food. D. Its activities in the open air. 21. Which transport can’t be used in Zermatt? A. Electric taxis. B. Cars running on oil. C. Electric bus. D. Horse-drawn carriage. 22. What did the writer notice about Zermat compared to Bangkok? A. It is quieter. B. It has more traffic. C. It is more polluted. D. It has less clean air. 【答案】19. B 20. D 21. B 22. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了瑞士的泽马特度假胜地。 【19题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“A friend suggested Zermat.

If so, you have witnessed (见证) a period of karaoke time, and the people are entertaining themselves by singing along to recorded music. You don’t hear the words. Instead, the words appear on a screen for the singers to follow and sing the words. This form of entertainment originated (起源) in Japan, and the word karaoke means “empty” (kara) and “orchestra” (oke). Karaoke was invented in the early 1970s in Kobe, Japan. The inventor was a musician named Daisuke Inoue. One day, a businessman asked him for a recording of his music so that he could sing along to it at a business meeting in another town. The recording was so good that the businessman returned and asked for more songs. This gave Inoue the idea of inventing the first karaoke machine. In its early days, the karaoke machine was found mainly in hotels and restaurants. Singers performed in front of the other customers. A lot of people loved the idea of singing their favourite songs, but didn’t feel comfortable singing in front of strangers; so in the 1980s, the karaoke box was born. This was a private (私人) room where people could sing with their friends without other people hearing them. Eventually, karaoke found its way into people’s homes as part of home theatre systems. As technology advanced, karaoke-based video games were created. By 2003, people could also access karaoke services on their mobile phones. This made it possible for music lovers to burst into (突然开始) song at any time, in any place. In some countries today, karaoke machines are even found in cars and taxis for the entertainment of passengers. Karaoke is definitely here to stay, and it will continue to adapt to our changing lifestyles. 23. What do people focus on when singing karaoke? A. Their side. B. Others singers. C. Words of a song. D. Screen doors. 24. Why was the karaoke box invented? A. To sing at home. B. To sing privately. C. To sound better. D. To have small space. 25. What does the underlined word “access” in last paragraph mean? A. Invent. B. Download. C. Select. D. Use. 26. What is the main idea of the text? A. How karaoke is used by musicians. B. The best karaoke machines in the world. C. The invention of karaoke and its growth. D. How karaoke helps people improve singing. 【答案】23. C 24. B 25. D 26. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了卡拉OK的起源和发展。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段第三句“You don’t hear the words. Instead, the words appear on a screen for the singers to follow and sing the words.”可知，人们唱卡拉OK时关注的是歌词，故选C。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第三句“This was a private (私人) room where people could sing with their friends without other people hearing them.”可知，卡拉OK盒被发明是为了私人唱歌，故选B。 【25题详解】 词义猜词题。根据最后一段倒数第三句“This made it possible for music lovers to burst into (突然开始) song at any time, in any place.”可知，划线单词所在句子的句意为“到2003年，人们还可以在手机上使用卡拉OK服务”，access与use“使用”意思相近。故选D。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了卡拉OK的起源和发展，故选C。 D When we talk about safaris (游猎), we usually think of excited tourists watching wild animals living freely in Africa. But did you know that in the beginning safaris had little to do with observing wildlife in its natural living areas? The word safari comes from an Arabic word for “journey”, and the earliest safaris were journeys to do trade, hundreds of years ago. These journeys through Africa were often difficult and dangerous, but people from different parts of the world were able to see the unbelievable wildlife there. Eventually (最终) people started to hunt or to study the wildlife, rather than to do trade. Today, most safaris are trips for holidaymakers who want to see animals such as zebras, giraffes, lions and elephants in their natural homes. Some countries also have safari parks-huge parks where the same animals live almost freely, and visitors drive through to see them from inside their cars. Everyone knows that thousands of animals die out every year, and a lot of people believe that safaris and safari parks have an important role to play in the fight to protect some of the planet’s best-known species (物种). Safari parks, like zoos, are places where animals can live safely, and receive food and medical treatment. But unlike zoos, the animals live in almost natural conditions. Real safaris help to protect animal living areas, as they not only bring in money but also help to educate people. Tourists on safari take photos and videos, which they share with their friends and family, and online, spreading the word about the beauty of nature and the importance of protecting it. Not every side of safari tourism is positive (乐观), however. It’s very expensive, and very few people can actually afford to experience it. Safari tourists travel in jeeps, trucks and tour buses, which cause pollution, and some tourists leave rubbish. Some people believe safaris could destroy the very places that they are supposed to protect. As safaris become more popular, it is important that the people who organize and join in them do so responsibly. They must do their best to make sure that these trips into the natural world really are for the benefit of Mother Nature, and not to her disadvantage. 27. What were the earliest safaris mainly for? A. Watching wildlife. B. Trading. C. Studying animals. D. Protecting nature. 28. What is a key difference between safari parks and zoos? A. Animals in zoos are healthier. B. Safari parks don’t allow visitors. C. Safari parks offer more food to animals. D. Animals in safari parks live in natural conditions. 29. What should safari organizers pay attention to? A. Protecting nature. B. Making safaris cheaper. C. Expanding safari parks. D. Increasing the number of tourists. 30. What is the purpose of the text? A. To show the cost of going on a safari. B. To explain how safaris can harm animals. C. To describe the history and development of safaris. D. To encourage people to stop paying a visit to safaris. 【答案】27. B 28. D 29. A 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要围绕游猎展开，介绍了其历史起源、发展变化、在保护动物方面的作用以及存在的问题等方面内容。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The word safari comes from an Arabic word for ‘journey’, and the earliest safaris were journeys to do trade, hundreds of years ago.”，可知最早的游猎是为了做贸易的旅程。故选B。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Safari parks, like zoos, are places where animals can live safely, and receive food and medical treatment. But unlike zoos, the animals live in almost natural conditions.”，可知野生动物园和动物园的关键区别在于野生动物园里的动物生活在近乎自然的条件下。故选D。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据“As safaris become more popular,…and not to her disadvantage.”，可知随着游猎变得更受欢迎，组织和参与游猎的人有责任注重保护自然。可知游猎组织者应该注意保护自然。故选A。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。对全文整体分析可知，本文全面地描述了游猎的历史发展过程以及相关情况。可知这篇文章的目的是描述游猎的历史和发展。故选C。 第二节 任务型阅读 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面材料，从下面所给的A—E五个选项中选出正确选项 (其中一项是多余选项)，将其序号填入第1—4小题，并回答第5小题。注意：请将第5小题的答案写在答题纸上非选择题部分的相应位置。 A Theme Park for Fall Outing Here’s an interview with two classmates, Jenny and Tom, discussing their choices for the class fall outing to a theme park. ◆Have you thought about which theme park we should visit for the class fall outing?

Our summer vacation is very long! —Lauren I’m from France. Classes start in September and end in July for summer vacation. We have breaks in October, December, February and April.

B Last December, I was looking for a beautiful mountain resort (度假胜地) for my holiday. A friend suggested Zermat. The name alone was enough to interest me at once, so I did some research, bought a ticket, and soon found myself on a plane to Switzerland. Located in the south of the country, Zermat is known for its mountainous scenery. The town sits at the foot of the Matterhorn, one of the most famous mountains in the Alps. As my train moved towards Zermat, I couldn’t wait to see with my own eyes the shape of the great Matterhorn. I come from the busy city of Bangkok, and it was fascinating to find myself in a small town with fewer than 6,000 people. Throughout the year, Zermatt’s population increases very much with tourists. The town, which is famous for its outdoor activities, invites people to come to ski, hike, climb…anything, as long as they don’t bring their car. Before I got there, I found out that I wouldn’t be able to rent (租) a car. In fact, cars that use traditional oil are not allowed inside the town. That’s because the people of Zermatt are so proud of their view of the great Matterhorn that they don’t want it blocked by air pollution from cars. So visitors like me usually arrive in Zermat by train. I quite enjoyed being “car-free” and exploring the place on foot. I used one of the town’s electric taxis when I wanted to travel a bit further. I also took an electric bus once. But nothing was more fun than exploring the area in an old-fashioned horse-drawn carriage (四轮马车). I was happy to exchange the polluted skies of downtown Bangkok for the clean, clear mountain air. And until I experienced the peace and quiet in Zermatt, I didn’t realise how much traffic noise I hear every day. The town’s electric cars were practically silent. 19. Where is Zermatt located? A. In France. B. In Switzerland. C. In Italy. D. In Austria. 20. What is Zermatt famous for? A. Its beaches. B. Its nightlife. C. Its traditional food. D. Its activities in the open air. 21. Which transport can’t be used in Zermatt? A. Electric taxis. B. Cars running on oil. C. Electric bus. D. Horse-drawn carriage. 22. What did the writer notice about Zermat compared to Bangkok? A. It is quieter. B. It has more traffic. C. It is more polluted. D. It has less clean air. C Have you seen a group of people with their eyes staring at a screen, singing out loud without a care in the world? If so, you have witnessed (见证) a period of karaoke time, and the people are entertaining themselves by singing along to recorded music. You don’t hear the words. Instead, the words appear on a screen for the singers to follow and sing the words. This form of entertainment originated (起源) in Japan, and the word karaoke means “empty” (kara) and “orchestra” (oke). Karaoke was invented in the early 1970s in Kobe, Japan. The inventor was a musician named Daisuke Inoue. One day, a businessman asked him for a recording of his music so that he could sing along to it at a business meeting in another town. The recording was so good that the businessman returned and asked for more songs. This gave Inoue the idea of inventing the first karaoke machine. In its early days, the karaoke machine was found mainly in hotels and restaurants. Singers performed in front of the other customers. A lot of people loved the idea of singing their favourite songs, but didn’t feel comfortable singing in front of strangers; so in the 1980s, the karaoke box was born. This was a private (私人) room where people could sing with their friends without other people hearing them. Eventually, karaoke found its way into people’s homes as part of home theatre systems. As technology advanced, karaoke-based video games were created. By 2003, people could also access karaoke services on their mobile phones. This made it possible for music lovers to burst into (突然开始) song at any time, in any place. In some countries today, karaoke machines are even found in cars and taxis for the entertainment of passengers. Karaoke is definitely here to stay, and it will continue to adapt to our changing lifestyles. 23. What do people focus on when singing karaoke? A. Their side. B. Others singers. C. Words of a song. D. Screen doors. 24. Why was the karaoke box invented? A. To sing at home. B. To sing privately. C. To sound better. D. To have small space. 25. What does the underlined word “access” in last paragraph mean? A. Invent. B. Download. C. Select. D. Use. 26 What is the main idea of the text? A. How karaoke is used by musicians. B. The best karaoke machines in the world. C. The invention of karaoke and its growth. D. How karaoke helps people improve singing. D When we talk about safaris (游猎), we usually think of excited tourists watching wild animals living freely in Africa. But did you know that in the beginning safaris had little to do with observing wildlife in its natural living areas? The word safari comes from an Arabic word for “journey”, and the earliest safaris were journeys to do trade, hundreds of years ago. These journeys through Africa were often difficult and dangerous, but people from different parts of the world were able to see the unbelievable wildlife there. Eventually (最终) people started to hunt or to study the wildlife, rather than to do trade. Today, most safaris are trips for holidaymakers who want to see animals such as zebras, giraffes, lions and elephants in their natural homes. Some countries also have safari parks-huge parks where the same animals live almost freely, and visitors drive through to see them from inside their cars. Everyone knows that thousands of animals die out every year, and a lot of people believe that safaris and safari parks have an important role to play in the fight to protect some of the planet’s best-known species (物种). Safari parks, like zoos, are places where animals can live safely, and receive food and medical treatment. But unlike zoos, the animals live in almost natural conditions. Real safaris help to protect animal living areas, as they not only bring in money but also help to educate people. Tourists on safari take photos and videos, which they share with their friends and family, and online, spreading the word about the beauty of nature and the importance of protecting it. Not every side of safari tourism is positive (乐观), however. It’s very expensive, and very few people can actually afford to experience it. Safari tourists travel in jeeps, trucks and tour buses, which cause pollution, and some tourists leave rubbish. Some people believe safaris could destroy the very places that they are supposed to protect. As safaris become more popular, it is important that the people who organize and join in them do so responsibly. They must do their best to make sure that these trips into the natural world really are for the benefit of Mother Nature, and not to her disadvantage. 27. What were the earliest safaris mainly for? A. Watching wildlife. B. Trading. C. Studying animals. D. Protecting nature. 28. What is a key difference between safari parks and zoos? A Animals in zoos are healthier. B. Safari parks don’t allow visitors. C. Safari parks offer more food to animals. D. Animals in safari parks live in natural conditions. 29. What should safari organizers pay attention to? A. Protecting nature. B. Making safaris cheaper. C. Expanding safari parks. D. Increasing the number of tourists. 30. What is the purpose of the text? A. To show the cost of going on a safari. B. To explain how safaris can harm animals. C. To describe the history and development of safaris. D. To encourage people to stop paying a visit to safaris. 第二节 任务型阅读 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面材料，从下面所给的A—E五个选项中选出正确选项 (其中一项是多余选项)，将其序号填入第1—4小题，并回答第5小题。注意：请将第5小题的答案写在答题纸上非选择题部分的相应位置。 A Theme Park for Fall Outing Here’s an interview with two classmates, Jenny and Tom, discussing their choices for the class fall outing to a theme park. ◆Have you thought about which theme park we should visit for the class fall outing?
