Fun Story B This was our last trip before high school. I had been looking forward to it for weeks. But looking at the roller coaster (过山车), my stomach felt too tight to say anything at all. The big girl beside us was Tasha, my best friend Dan’s sister. We came here in her car. She was a singer. She was fantastic on the stage. Just the image of her up there made me think she was so cool. Our roller coaster car pulled up and my friends rushed forward. I felt my legs couldn’t move. All I could think about was the roller coaster might fly off into the sky. Without a word, I turned, ran out of the line. I knew what people were saying about me, but I didn’t care. I just kept moving past the crowd, found a bench near the bathrooms to sit down and put my head in my hands. “Hey! Are you okay?” I looked up. It was Tasha! “Oh, uh, yeah, I just started feeling, um, sick.” I responded. “You know, it’s okay if you were scared. Everyone gets scared.” She said. “You don’t.” I said in a low voice. “I’ve seen you on that stage. You were fearless.” “I’m glad it looks like I’m not scared!” Tasha smiled. “But that’s not true. I get really scared and nervous before I perform.” Before I noticed she was on the bench by my side, her words moved on. “Hey, look, singing is important to me. And I want to share what I love with my people. So, even if I’m scared, I do it anyway. I push through the fear and just get up and do it. Is taking roller coaster important to you?” “Yeah, it is. And I want to be able to look back and remember having fun with my friends. I don’t want to remember running away and sitting alone by the bathrooms.” “Everyone gets scared, but brave people don’t let fear control them.” She looked into my eyes. Still being lost in what she said, I saw my friends coming towards me. I ▲ . When we were leaving, Tasha took a photo of my big smile in front of the coaster. I put it on my door. It stayed there through all four years of my high school, a reminder of what was important to me. 4. What problem did the writer have on this trip? A. He failed in the singing competition. B. He left his photo in the roller coaster. C. He had an argument with his friends. D. He was afraid to get on the roller coaster. 5. What can we learn about Tasha according to the passage? A. She was never scared of anything. B. She felt relaxed on the stage. C. She encouraged the writer to be brave. D. She got sick at the roller coaster. 6. Which of the following sentences can be put in ▲ in the passage? A. said sorry to them and ran away B. played with them on other games C. decided to be on the coaster next time D. got up and went with them to the coaster 7. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “reminder”? A. A person who is important to you. B. A thing that brings back some memories. C A person who takes a trip with you. D. A thing that gives you more courage. C Everyone knows that friendships are important. We all need our best friends. Best friends share good times and bad. We tell our close friends our secrets. But what about casual friends? They are the friends we see only now and then. They are our classmates, the customers at the cafe, or the neighbor walking his dog. When we have a lot of casual friends, it improves our lives in several ways. First, casual friends make us happy. We talk to them at the bus stop or the farm stand. We feel like we are part of a community. Research shows that the more casual friends we have, the more positive we feel. In one study, students felt much happier when they talked to more classmates than usual. These low-key(低调的) friendships become very important as we get older. We have the most friends at age 25, but the number goes down after that. As we get older, we have fewer friendships and can feel alone. But we feel less lonely when we have many casual friends. Second, casual friends connect us to other groups of people. They tell us about fun activities and possible jobs. In fact, people are 58 percent more likely to get a job through a casual friend than a close friend. Casual friends introduce us to their other friends. They help when we want to know about good restaurants or exciting movies. Research shows that casual friendships are a good way to spread all kinds of information. Finally, casual friends introduce us to a variety of new ideas. Our best friends often think like us, but casual friends may have very different opinions. When we talk to different people, we learn new ways of seeing the world. It makes us kinder and more understanding. To have a better life, make more casual friends. Talk more to strangers. These people can become casual friends. Over time, casual friends can become close friends. And the more friends you have, the happier you’ll be. Casual friends may be the secret to a happy life. 8. What are casual friends? A. Friends we see only sometimes. B. Friends we share good times with. C. Friends we often tell our secrets to. D. Friends we have known for a long time. 9. Why are casual friends important as we get older? A. Because we have more time to spend with them. B. Because they are easier to have than close friends. C. Because we have fewer friends and may feel alone. D. Because they share other neighbors’ secrets with us. 10. How do casual friends help us get new ways of thinking? A. By introducing different new ideas to us. B. By making us feel like we are relatives. C. By providing us with more possible jobs. D. By introducing us to their other friends. 11. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? (p-paragraph) A. B. C. D. D The GIF — or graphics interchange format — has become an important part of today’s meme (表情包) culture. But there have been heated arguments when it comes to the word’s pronunciation. Should it be pronounced with a hard G, as in “give”, or a soft G, as in “gentle”? The argument should have come to an end in 2013, when Steve Wilhite, who invented the GIF in 1987, said in an interview that the right way to pronounce GIF is “JIF”, with a soft G. But people don’t completely agree. Web designer Dan Cederholm once wrote on Twitter: “Graphics Interchange Format. Graphics. Not Jraphics.” This actually has a point. To find out what people really think of the word, a survey (调查) in June by Stack Over flow interviewed over 50,000 Internet users in nearly 200 countries. The results showed that GIF with a hard G is the more widely accepted pronunciation, with 65 percent agreeing with it, while only 26 percent went for the soft G. However, according to The Economist, many people may have chosen the hard G simply because they don’t have a soft G in their language — people who speak Spanish, for example. This could have led to a biased (偏倚的) result. After a correction was made to the survey, the result came out more even, with 44 percent voting for hard G and 32 percent for soft G. The rest of the people actually went for the third choice — saying each letter one by one as “jee eye eff” (/ dɜi:/ /aɪ/ / ef/), which is most common in Asia, especially in China and South Korea. It may look like the hard G is taking the lead in any case. But as The Economist pointed out, “A popular belief isn’t always correct.” The Oxford English Dictionary and Merriam-Webster aren’t picking sides either. They said that both pronunciations are acceptable. So maybe it depends on you. Just choose whichever one that sounds good — or rather, “jood” — to you. 12. According to the article, what was the problem with the survey? A. It didn’t consider influences from the mother languages. B. It misled people to pronounce GIF with a hard G. C. It didn’t consider the influences from their different jobs. D. It only interviewed a small number of countries. 13. After correction, what does the results of the survey show? A. Most people say GIF with a hard G. B. Many people can’t decide the pronunciation. C. Most people say GIF with a soft G. D. Many Asians pronounce GIF letter by letter. 14. Which of the following is TRUE? A. The Oxford English Dictionary shows GIF with a soft G. B. Whether “GIF” or “JIF”, it is up to you to choose. C. About 13000 people went for the hard G in the first survey. D. Spanish people might pronounce GIF as “JIF”. 15. What’s the article mainly about? A. The only right way to pronounce GIF. B. A biased survey by Stack Over flow. C. The arguments over GIF’s pronunciation. D. How different countries pronounce GIFs. 三、任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下而短文，然后从文后所给的A—E 五个选项中选择正确的选项填入1—4题 (有一项为多余选项)，并结合文本内容回答第5题。 A TEAM FOR LIFE A successful team project Sarah successfully completed a science project with her team, and we asked her to share something about it 1. __________ Our class had to do a group project on renewable energy.

All I could think about was the roller coaster might fly off into the sky.”可知，但看着过山车，我的胃感觉太紧了，什么也说不出来，我们的过山车停了下来，我的朋友们冲了过去，我觉得我的腿动不了，我满脑子想的都是过山车可能会飞向天空，可推测作者害怕坐过山车。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据“‘Everyone gets scared, but brave people don’t let fear control them.’ She looked into my eyes.”可知，Tasha对作者说每个人都会害怕，但勇敢的人不会让恐惧控制他们，即Tasha在鼓励作者要勇敢。故选C。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“Still being lost in what she said, I saw my friends coming towards me...When we were leaving, Tasha took a photo of my big smile in front of the coaster.”可知，结合上下文，我仍然沉浸在她的话中，看到我的朋友们朝我走来，当我们离开时，塔莎在过山车前给我拍了一张笑容灿烂的照片，可推测此处是作者坐了过山车的语句，D选项“我站起来，和他们一起去坐过山车”符合语境。故选D。 【7题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“It stayed there through all four years of my high school, a reminder of what was important to me.”可知，在我高中的四年里，它一直在那里，即一个能让我回忆起对我来说什么是重要的的东西，可推测reminder表示“引起回忆的事物”，B选项“一个能唤起一些回忆的事物。”与其相符。故选B。 C Everyone knows that friendships are important. We all need our best friends. Best friends share good times and bad. We tell our close friends our secrets. But what about casual friends? They are the friends we see only now and then. They are our classmates, the customers at the cafe, or the neighbor walking his dog. When we have a lot of casual friends, it improves our lives in several ways. First, casual friends make us happy. We talk to them at the bus stop or the farm stand. We feel like we are part of a community. Research shows that the more casual friends we have, the more positive we feel. In one study, students felt much happier when they talked to more classmates than usual. These low-key(低调的) friendships become very important as we get older. We have the most friends at age 25, but the number goes down after that. As we get older, we have fewer friendships and can feel alone. But we feel less lonely when we have many casual friends. Second, casual friends connect us to other groups of people. They tell us about fun activities and possible jobs. In fact, people are 58 percent more likely to get a job through a casual friend than a close friend. Casual friends introduce us to their other friends. They help when we want to know about good restaurants or exciting movies. Research shows that casual friendships are a good way to spread all kinds of information. Finally, casual friends introduce us to a variety of new ideas. Our best friends often think like us, but casual friends may have very different opinions. When we talk to different people, we learn new ways of seeing the world. It makes us kinder and more understanding. To have a better life, make more casual friends. Talk more to strangers. These people can become casual friends. Over time, casual friends can become close friends. And the more friends you have, the happier you’ll be. Casual friends may be the secret to a happy life. 8. What are casual friends? A. Friends we see only sometimes. B. Friends we share good times with. C. Friends we often tell our secrets to. D. Friends we have known for a long time. 9. Why are casual friends important as we get older? A. Because we have more time to spend with them. B. Because they are easier to have than close friends. C. Because we have fewer friends and may feel alone. D. Because they share other neighbors’ secrets with us. 10. How do casual friends help us get new ways of thinking? A. By introducing different new ideas to us. B. By making us feel like we are relatives. C. By providing us with more possible jobs. D. By introducing us to their other friends. 11. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? (p-paragraph) A. B. C. D. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了每个人都知道友谊很重要。当我们有很多普通朋友时，它在几个方面改善了我们生活，文中从三方面进行了阐述。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据“But what about casual friends? They are the friends we see only now and then. They are our classmates, the customers at the cafe, or the neighbor walking his dog. ”可知，他们是我们偶尔才见到的朋友。他们是我们的同学，咖啡馆的顾客，或者是遛狗的邻居。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据“As we get older, we have fewer friendships and can feel alone. But we feel less lonely when we have many casual friends.”可知，随着年龄的增长，我们的友谊越来越少，我们会感到孤独。但是当我们有很多普通的朋友时，我们就不会那么孤独了，故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Our best friends often think like us, but casual friends may have very different opinions.

But there have been heated arguments when it comes to the word’s pronunciation. Should it be pronounced with a hard G, as in “give”, or a soft G, as in “gentle”? The argument should have come to an end in 2013, when Steve Wilhite, who invented the GIF in 1987, said in an interview that the right way to pronounce GIF is “JIF”, with a soft G. But people don’t completely agree. Web designer Dan Cederholm once wrote on Twitter: “Graphics Interchange Format. Graphics. Not Jraphics.” This actually has a point. To find out what people really think of the word, a survey (调查) in June by Stack Over flow interviewed over 50,000 Internet users in nearly 200 countries. The results showed that GIF with a hard G is the more widely accepted pronunciation, with 65 percent agreeing with it, while only 26 percent went for the soft G. However, according to The Economist, many people may have chosen the hard G simply because they don’t have a soft G in their language — people who speak Spanish, for example. This could have led to a biased (偏倚的) result. After a correction was made to the survey, the result came out more even, with 44 percent voting for hard G and 32 percent for soft G. The rest of the people actually went for the third choice — saying each letter one by one as “jee eye eff” (/ dɜi:/ /aɪ/ / ef/), which is most common in Asia, especially in China and South Korea. It may look like the hard G is taking the lead in any case. But as The Economist pointed out, “A popular belief isn’t always correct.” The Oxford English Dictionary and Merriam-Webster aren’t picking sides either. They said that both pronunciations are acceptable. So maybe it depends on you. Just choose whichever one that sounds good — or rather, “jood” — to you. 12. According to the article, what was the problem with the survey? A. It didn’t consider influences from the mother languages. B. It misled people to pronounce GIF with a hard G. C. It didn’t consider the influences from their different jobs. D. It only interviewed a small number of countries. 13. After correction, what does the results of the survey show? A. Most people say GIF with a hard G. B. Many people can’t decide the pronunciation. C. Most people say GIF with a soft G. D. Many Asians pronounce GIF letter by letter. 14. Which of the following is TRUE? A. The Oxford English Dictionary shows GIF with a soft G. B. Whether “GIF” or “JIF”, it is up to you to choose. C. About 13000 people went for the hard G in the first survey. D. Spanish people might pronounce GIF as “JIF”. 15. What’s the article mainly about? A. The only right way to pronounce GIF. B. A biased survey by Stack Over flow. C. The arguments over GIF’s pronunciation. D. How different countries pronounce GIFs. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讨论了关于“GIF”这个词的发音争议。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据“However, according to The Economist, many people may have chosen the hard G simply because they don’t have a soft G in their language — people who speak Spanish, for example. This could have led to a biased (偏倚的) result.”可知这个调查存在的问题是它没有考虑来自母语的影响。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“After a correction was made to the survey, the result came out more even, with 44 percent voting for hard G and 32 percent for soft G. The rest of the people actually went for the third choice — saying each letter one by one as “jee eye eff” (/ dɜi:/ /aɪ/ / ef/), which is most common in Asia, especially in China and South Korea.”可知修正后，调查结果显示了许多亚洲人是按字母念GIF的。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They said that both pronunciations are acceptable.”可知两种发音都可以接受，“GIF”还是“JIF”，由您来选择。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。文章讨论的是关于GIF的发音争论及不同结果，主要围绕发音争论展开。故选C。 三、任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下而短文，然后从文后所给的A—E 五个选项中选择正确的选项填入1—4题 (有一项为多余选项)，并结合文本内容回答第5题。 A TEAM FOR LIFE A successful team project Sarah successfully completed a science project with her team, and we asked her to share something about it 1. __________ Our class had to do a group project on renewable energy.
