B My First Marathon（马拉松） A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead. I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn’t do either well. He later informed me that I was ＂not athletic＂. The idea that I was ＂not athletic＂ stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills! The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself. Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted! At mile 3, I passed a sign: ＂GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!＂ By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again. By mile 21, I was starving! As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running. I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had. Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a ＂marathon winner＂. 24. A month before the marathon, the author ____________. A. was well trained B. felt scared C. made up his mind to run D. lost hope 25. Why did the author mention the P.E. class in his 7th year? A. To acknowledge the support of his teacher. B. To amuse the readers with a funny story. C. To show he was not talented in sports. D. To share a precious memory. 26. How was the author’s first marathon? A. He made it. B. He quit halfway. C. He got the first prize. D. He walked to the end. 27. What does the story mainly tell us? A. A man owes his success to his family support. B. A winner is one with a great effort of will. C. Failure is the mother of success. D. One is never too old to learn. C In some parts of Africa, there are still big herds of wild animals like zebras, elephants, and giraffes. But today many of these wild animals are in danger and it worries many conservationists. Louis Liebenberg is one of them. He feels that having good information about animals is very important. People need to understand what happens to plants and animals over time. Are they increasing or decreasing in number? What plants are the animals eating? African Bushmen may be able to help. For hundreds of years, Bushmen have understood the ways of wild animal: what the animals eat; where the animals go; and even where they sleep. However, the Bushmen don’t always speak the same language as the conservationists. This can cause problems when they work together. This is where the Cyber Tracker comes in. The Cyber Tracker is an invention created by Louis Liebenberg. He hopes that together, the Cyber Tracker and the Bushmen can help protect the animals. The Cyber Tracker is a small computer that helps collect information about animals. It uses pictures, called “icons,” instead of words to record information. There are pictures for drinking, walking, fighting, sleeping, eating and other things. This way, the Bushmen can record what they see even without speaking the same language. The Cyber Tracker can collect very detailed and complicated information very quickly. However, that’s not the only thing the Cyber Tracker can do. The small computer also contains a global positioning device. Each time a Bushman sees something interesting about an animal or plant, he pushes a button. The Cyber Tracker records exactly where the man is in the world. The Bushman can also record what the animals are eating by pushing different buttons to name about 50 plants. However, Liebenberg adds that the human factor is also very important. A big part of the project is the Bushman’s ability to understand and correctly report everything he sees. The combination of machine and man seems to work very well. With the data collected by the Cyber Tracker, Liebenberg make maps showing where the animal herds are and what the animals are eating, indicating facts about their health. 28. What does the underlined word “conservationists” mean? A. Local people. B. People protecting wildlife. C Zoo keepers. D. Equipment for wildlife research. 29. How does the Cyber Tracker make communication easy? A. People can see where the Bushmen are. B. Researchers can write down information. C. The software can identify about 50 plants. D. The invention uses pictures rather than language. 30. What is the main purpose of the Cyber Tracker? A. To track animal moving routes. B. To record plant and animal growth. C. To collect information about animals. D. To help with communication between Bushmen. 31. Which is Liebenberg likely to agree with? A. Technology alone is making conservation easier. B. The Cyber Tracker connect human with technology. C. The Cyber Tracker will help more wild animals. D. Every Bushman should learn how to use the Cyber Tracker. D We’ve all been there. One minute you’re searching for something serious, like a recipe(食谱) for dinner, or something for work, and the next you’ve been sucked in by endless videos of cats doing funny things after seeing an attractive title in your suggested videos column(专栏). They’re interesting, and you can end up spending hours watching kittens make funny noises or mistiming jumps. But why do these videos so often end up becoming popular? What makes them so fascinating? And whyare they more popular than dog videos? First，let’s talk about stereotypes(成见). When many of us think about dogs，we imagine them rolling over onto their backs, tongues hanging out, or making a mess. They seem trusting and innocent(单纯的)—and they do silly things. Cats, on the other hand, seem somewhat more controlled and independent. There’s a reason why we have an expression “cool cat”. In short, cats seem more serious—and clever. If we can put one over on a cat and make them do something like getting in a box that slides down a hill, it’s funny. But with a dog, it’s not as funny because they trust you-and it’s easier. Tricking a cat, due to their wiliness(狡猾)，has more payoff. The Internet is filled with videos of cats making funny faces or reacting strangely. But why are they so funny? Well, simply—it’s unexpected. If you saw a cat walking down the street coolly or observing and preparing to attack a mouse, it wouldn’t be funny. But if that cat was walking sideways,wearing a silly costume,or becoming best friends with the mouse, suddenly we might start to laugh. Watching a cat that is normally impressive walk carelessly or pull a face is funny because it’s not something we would normally connect with that animal. It’s like watching someone who is normally very serious laugh loudly. So the next time you see one of those funny behaviours of cats in awkward situations or videos that make you laugh,try to remember why it’s so funny. And spare a thought for all those dogs that are trying to give us pleasure too. 32. What do many of us think of dogs are? A. Innocent and simple-minded. B. Serious and clever. C. Independent and smart. D. Untrusting and controlled. 33. What do the underlined words“put one over on”in paragraph 2 mean? A. Feed. B. Cheat. C. Believe. D. Teach. 34 Why is it funny to watch videos of cats making funny faces? A. People like cats very much. B. They can make friends with the mouse. C. It’s unexpected and out of character. D. The videos are recorded on purpose. 35. What’s the best title of the text? A. Why Are Cat Videos So Popular? B. Why Are Cats More Cute than Dogs? C. Making Friends with Cats or Dogs D. The Difference Between Dogs and Cats 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。 Too bright light or too dark light makes one feel uncomfortable.

Lighting is so important, especially from different places of your home. When a home is well lit, it feels alive and comfortable. Light from the top and toe, under-desk is all great.

Though I’ve ____52____all other runners, I have a sacred(神圣的)goal like them. The audience won’t ____53____ me, but my motherland is watching me from behind....” Tears welled up in Greenspan’s eyes.

Well, the problem is that the apartments in the heart of the city are usually more expensive． M: I know that’s my problem. What do you think I should do? W: Well, maybe you could get a two­-bedroom apartment downtown and share the rent with a roommate. M: Oh great idea! 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 17. What is AV1 according to the speaker? A.

Yet, I was determined to go ahead. I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn’t do either well. He later informed me that I was ＂not athletic＂. The idea that I was ＂not athletic＂ stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills! The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself. Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted! At mile 3, I passed a sign: ＂GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!＂ By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again. By mile 21, I was starving! As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running. I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had. Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a ＂marathon winner＂. 24. A month before the marathon, the author ____________. A. was well trained B. felt scared C. made up his mind to run D. lost hope 25. Why did the author mention the P.E. class in his 7th year? A. To acknowledge the support of his teacher. B. To amuse the readers with a funny story. C. To show he was not talented in sports. D. To share a precious memory. 26. How was the author’s first marathon? A. He made it. B. He quit halfway. C. He got the first prize. D. He walked to the end. 27. What does the story mainly tell us? A. A man owes his success to his family support. B. A winner is one with a great effort of will. C. Failure is the mother of success. D. One is never too old to learn. 【答案】24. C 25. C 26. A 27. B 【解析】 【分析】本文为一篇记叙文。讲述了自己第一次跑马拉松，凭借自己的意志力成功跑完全程的励志故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句Yet, I was determined to go ahead.可知，马拉松赛前一个月尽管作者脚踝受伤使得训练时间缩短，但作者仍下定决心参赛。故选C。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段I didn’t do either well. He later informed me that I was ＂not athletic＂可知，作者提到7年级的事情是为了证明自己真的没有运动天赋。故选C。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第10段I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.可知，作者坚持到了最后，而且得到了一块奖牌，虽然不是第一名，由此可见他成功地跑完了马拉松。故选A。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，作者在讲述自己跑马拉松的经历，再根据最后一段Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a ＂marathon winner＂.可知，作者成功跑完马拉松源于自己的意志。故选B。 点睛：文章主题和中心思想的阐述往往需要大量细节信息的支持，这些细节对于理解全文内容至关重要，同时也是归纳和概括文章中心思想的基础。命题人往往会要求考生根据不同的要求阅读文章，以获得某些特定的信息，或准确地寻求所需的细节，并对细节进行直接或间接辨认和理解。文章细节的理解可以细化为：（1）一一对应型。（2）语言转述型。（3）语意理解型。（4）是非辨别型。（5）事实排序型。 此题中的前三题为细节理解题。细节理解题首先要根据题干准确定位信息句，其次要对信息句进行准确的理解和判断，如第一题为转述型，I was determined to go ahead即made up his mind to run。第二题为语义理解题。根据文章第二段的信息In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn’t do either well.可知，作者没有运动天赋。而第三题则为转述型，根据信息句I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.可知，作者跑完了马拉松，正好与made it 意义相同。 C In some parts of Africa, there are still big herds of wild animals like zebras, elephants, and giraffes. But today many of these wild animals are in danger and it worries many conservationists. Louis Liebenberg is one of them. He feels that having good information about animals is very important. People need to understand what happens to plants and animals over time. Are they increasing or decreasing in number? What plants are the animals eating? African Bushmen may be able to help. For hundreds of years, Bushmen have understood the ways of wild animal: what the animals eat; where the animals go; and even where they sleep. However, the Bushmen don’t always speak the same language as the conservationists. This can cause problems when they work together. This is where the Cyber Tracker comes in. The Cyber Tracker is an invention created by Louis Liebenberg. He hopes that together, the Cyber Tracker and the Bushmen can help protect the animals. The Cyber Tracker is a small computer that helps collect information about animals. It uses pictures, called “icons,” instead of words to record information. There are pictures for drinking, walking, fighting, sleeping, eating and other things. This way, the Bushmen can record what they see even without speaking the same language. The Cyber Tracker can collect very detailed and complicated information very quickly. However, that’s not the only thing the Cyber Tracker can do. The small computer also contains a global positioning device. Each time a Bushman sees something interesting about an animal or plant, he pushes a button. The Cyber Tracker records exactly where the man is in the world. The Bushman can also record what the animals are eating by pushing different buttons to name about 50 plants. However, Liebenberg adds that the human factor is also very important. A big part of the project is the Bushman’s ability to understand and correctly report everything he sees. The combination of machine and man seems to work very well. With the data collected by the Cyber Tracker, Liebenberg make maps showing where the animal herds are and what the animals are eating, indicating facts about their health. 28. What does the underlined word “conservationists” mean? A. Local people. B. People protecting wildlife. C. Zoo keepers. D. Equipment for wildlife research. 29. How does the Cyber Tracker make communication easy? A. People can see where the Bushmen are. B. Researchers can write down information. C. The software can identify about 50 plants. D. The invention uses pictures rather than language. 30. What is the main purpose of the Cyber Tracker? A. To track animal moving routes. B. To record plant and animal growth. C. To collect information about animals. D. To help with communication between Bushmen. 31. Which is Liebenberg likely to agree with? A. Technology alone is making conservation easier. B. The Cyber Tracker connect human with technology. C. The Cyber Tracker will help more wild animals. D. Every Bushman should learn how to use the Cyber Tracker. 【答案】28. B 29. D 30. C 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Louis Liebenberg为了保护野生动物，发明了网络追踪器，它是一种帮助收集动物信息的小型计算机，使用被称为“图标”的图片来代替文字来记录信息。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“But today many of these wild animals are in danger (但今天，许多野生动物都处于危险之中)”及下文“Louis Liebenberg is one of them.(Louis Liebenberg就是其中之一)”可知，划线词指的是人。由此推知，划线词conservationists指的是“保护野生动物的人们”。故选B。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The Cyber Tracker is a small computer that helps collect information about animals. It uses pictures, called “icons,” instead of words to record information. There are pictures for drinking, walking, fighting, sleeping, eating and other things. This way, the Bushmen can record what they see even without speaking the same language. The Cyber Tracker can collect very detailed and complicated information very quickly.(网络追踪器是一种帮助收集动物信息的小型计算机。它使用被称为“图标”的图片来代替文字来记录信息。有关于饮水、散步、打架、睡觉、进食和其他事情的图片。这样，布须曼人即使不讲同一种语言也能记录下他们所看到的。网络追踪器可以非常迅速地收集非常详细和复杂的信息)”可知，“网络追踪者”使用图片而不是语言，这让交流更容易。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The Cyber Tracker is a small computer that helps collect information about animals. It uses pictures, called “icons,” instead of words to record information. There are pictures for drinking, walking, fighting, sleeping, eating and other things. This way, the Bushmen can record what they see even without speaking the same language. The Cyber Tracker can collect very detailed and complicated information very quickly.(“网络追踪者”是一种帮助收集动物信息的小型计算机。它使用被称为“图标”的图片来代替文字来记录信息。有关于饮水、散步、打架、睡觉、进食和其他事情的图片。这样，布须曼人即使不讲同一种语言也能记录下他们所看到的。“网络追踪者”可以非常迅速地收集非常详细和复杂的信息)”可推知，“网络追踪者”的主要目的是收集有关动物的信息。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The Cyber Tracker is an invention created by Louis Liebenberg. He hopes that together, the Cyber Tracker and the Bushmen can help protect the animals.(“网络追踪者”是Louis Liebenberg发明的。他希望“网络追踪者”和布须曼人可以一起帮助保护动物)”和最后一段中的“The combination of machine and man seems to work very well. With the data collected by the Cyber Tracker, Liebenberg make maps showing where the animal herds are and what the animals are eating, indicating facts about their health.(机器和人的结合似乎很有效。利用“网络追踪者”收集的数据，Liebenberg制作了地图，显示动物群的位置和动物吃什么，表明它们的健康状况)”可推知，Liebenberg可能会同意“网络追踪器”将帮助更多野生动物这一说法。故选C。 D We’ve all been there. One minute you’re searching for something serious, like a recipe(食谱) for dinner, or something for work, and the next you’ve been sucked in by endless videos of cats doing funny things after seeing an attractive title in your suggested videos column(专栏). They’re interesting, and you can end up spending hours watching kittens make funny noises or mistiming jumps. But why do these videos so often end up becoming popular? What makes them so fascinating? And whyare they more popular than dog videos? First，let’s talk about stereotypes(成见). When many of us think about dogs，we imagine them rolling over onto their backs, tongues hanging out, or making a mess. They seem trusting and innocent(单纯的)—and they do silly things. Cats, on the other hand, seem somewhat more controlled and independent. There’s a reason why we have an expression “cool cat”. In short, cats seem more serious—and clever. If we can put one over on a cat and make them do something like getting in a box that slides down a hill, it’s funny. But with a dog, it’s not as funny because they trust you-and it’s easier. Tricking a cat, due to their wiliness(狡猾)，has more payoff. The Internet is filled with videos of cats making funny faces or reacting strangely. But why are they so funny? Well, simply—it’s unexpected. If you saw a cat walking down the street coolly or observing and preparing to attack a mouse, it wouldn’t be funny. But if that cat was walking sideways,wearing a silly costume,or becoming best friends with the mouse, suddenly we might start to laugh. Watching a cat that is normally impressive walk carelessly or pull a face is funny because it’s not something we would normally connect with that animal. It’s like watching someone who is normally very serious laugh loudly. So the next time you see one of those funny behaviours of cats in awkward situations or videos that make you laugh,try to remember why it’s so funny. And spare a thought for all those dogs that are trying to give us pleasure too. 32. What do many of us think of dogs are? A. Innocent and simple-minded. B. Serious and clever. C. Independent and smart. D. Untrusting and controlled. 33. What do the underlined words“put one over on”in paragraph 2 mean? A. Feed. B. Cheat. C. Believe. D. Teach. 34. Why is it funny to watch videos of cats making funny faces? A. People like cats very much. B. They can make friends with the mouse. C. It’s unexpected and out of character. D. The videos are recorded on purpose. 35. What’s the best title of the text? A. Why Are Cat Videos So Popular? B. Why Are Cats More Cute than Dogs? C. Making Friends with Cats or Dogs D. The Difference Between Dogs and Cats 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述猫咪的搞笑视频拥有让人无法抗拒魅力的原因。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“They seem trusting and innocent—and they do silly things.”（它们似乎是可信和天真的——并且它们做愚蠢的事情。）可知，狗给多数人的刻板印象是单纯的和头脑简单的。故选A项。 【33题详解】 词义猜测题。根据下文“Tricking a cat，due to their wiliness，has more payoff.”（ 由于猫的狡猾，戏弄猫的回报更高。）可知，这里讲了戏弄猫的事情，推断出此处put one over on意为“欺骗”，符合题意。故选B项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“But why are they so funny？Well, simply—it's unexpected.”（ 但是为什么它们如此有趣，简单来说——出乎意料。）和“Watching a cat that is normally impressive walk carelessly or pull a face is funny because it's not something we would normally connect with that animal. ”（ 观看一只令人印象深刻的猫通常漫不经心的走路或者做鬼脸是有趣的，因为这不是我们通常会与动物联系起来的事情。）可知只有猫做出让人出乎意料的举动时人们才会觉得有趣，推断出人们觉得猫做鬼脸有趣的原因是它们超出了人们对于猫的天性的认知。故选C项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“They’re interesting, and you can end up spending hours watching kittens make funny noises or mistiming jumps. But why do these videos so often end up becoming popular? What makes them so fascinating?”（ 它们很有趣，你最终可以花几个小时看着小猫发出有趣的声音或误时跳跃，但为什么这些视频最终会如此受欢迎呢？是什么让它们如此迷人？）及第四段“So the next time you see one of those funny behaviors of cats in awkward situations or videos that make you laugh, try to remember why it’s so funny.”（ 所以下次你看到那些在尴尬的情况下猫咪的有趣的行为之一或者让你发笑的视频，试着记住为什么它这么有趣。）可知，文章围绕的主题是讨论猫咪搞笑视频为什么受欢迎。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。 Too bright light or too dark light makes one feel uncomfortable.
