For many of us, including me, that person is our own mother. But in my case, there is another person who is my perfect mentor (导师) and friend. It’s Nana, my mum’s father. My Nana, since I was a kid, brought me up in the most unforgettable way possible, babying me by buying toys and presenting me with sweets and candies constantly and spending time with me, which created an everlasting bond between us. Fast-forward a couple of years, when I began to outgrow these toys or candies, Nana didn’t just stop there. He began taking me almost every weekend to the local club where he had a membership. It meant the world to me as I could do absolutely whatever I pleased there. Other than that, Nana would take me to many parks, especially when there was a flower show on or something of that sort. He was very enthusiastic about nature and spent hours around it, enjoying what it had to offer. Anyhow, his immense love didn’t end there... My Nana had grown older. Now he finds it hard to drive and walk too much, so he prefers to stay at home. What I do now is to try to give him company and talk to him mainly about his travels at sea, as he was a sailor, and the various countries he visited and how he spent his early years and about my school, etc. I’ll never be able to repay my Nana for all the kindness and comfort he gave to me.

For many of us, including me, that person is our own mother. (每个人的生活中都有一个特别的人，他们扮演着榜样的角色。对我们许多人来说，包括我自己，那个人就是我们自己的母亲)”可知，在大多数人的生活中，为他们的生活充当榜样的是妈妈。故选A项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“Fast-forward a couple of years, when I began to outgrow these toys or candies, Nana didn’t just stop there. He began taking me almost every weekend to the local club where he had a membership. (快进几年，当我开始长大，不再需要这些玩具或糖果时，Nana并没有就此止步。他开始几乎每个周末都带我去他有会员资格的当地俱乐部)”可知，作者的外公开始带她去当地的俱乐部，由此推知，随着作者的成长，她对玩具和糖果不再感兴趣。由此推知，划线词outgrow意为“因长大而放弃；年增志移”。故选D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Other than that, Nana would take me to many parks, especially when there was a flower show on or something of that sort. He was very enthusiastic about nature and spent hours around it, enjoying what it had to offer. (除此之外，Nana还会带我去许多公园，特别是当有花展或其他类似活动时。他对自然非常热情，会花上数小时在自然中，享受它所提供的一切)”可知，作者的外公过去对大自然充满热情，带她去过许多的公园，尤其是有花展等类似活动的时候。由此推知，作者的外公可能会对各种植物很感兴趣。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“What I do now is to try to give him company and talk to him mainly about his travels at sea, as he was a sailor, and the various countries he visited and how he spent his early years and about my school, etc. (我现在所做的，就是尝试陪伴他，主要和他谈论他的海上旅行，因为他曾经是一名水手，以及他访问过的各个国家，他早年是如何度过的，还有关于我的学校等等)”可推知，作者是通过陪伴及与外公聊天的方式来回报他。故选C项。 C Many English expressions and idioms use parts of the body to describe things unrelated to the body. For example, a green thumb means to be good at growing vegetables, flowers and other plants. And if something costs an arm and a leg, it is very expensive. Well, today, we talk about your shoulder. This part connects your arm to your body. And the shoulder finds its way into many expressions. For starters, let’s talk about “shoulder” as a verb. If you shoulder something, you accept it as your responsibility; you give support, or you take the blame. And this is a great place to start. This idea of taking responsibility and giving support leads us to some other “shoulder” expressions. For example, during difficult times in our lives, it is often necessary to have a shoulder to lean (倚靠) on or a shoulder to cry on. When we lean on someone’s shoulder, we ask for their help. When we cry on someone’s shoulder, they are there for support. We call people who give us a shoulder to lean on or cry on our “support system”. There is another way our shoulders give us support. If you are successful in your career but others have come before you, you can say you are standing on the shoulders of giants. This means you have not succeeded on your own. You have learned from others in the same field who had earlier successes. Now, from our shoulders, let’s move up to our heads. Our heads are centered between our shoulders. So, it should not be surprising that we have a couple of expressions that use both. If you have a good head on your shoulders, you are thoughtful and smart and you often achieve success in life. This means you are much better than those in a similar field or competition. 8. Which expression shows that someone pays too much money? A. You cry on a shoulder. B. You spend an arm and a leg. C. You need a green thumb. D. You shoulder the responsibility. 9. Who can be called your “support system” when you are in trouble? A. The person succeeding in life on his own. B. The person lending you a shoulder to cry on. C. The person standing on the shoulders of giants. D. The person helping you succeed in the special field. 10. What is a man having a good head on his shoulders like? A. He looks very handsome. B. He is healthy and positive. C. He is wise and thoughtful. D. He can overcome all the difficulties. 11. What’s the purpose of this text? A. To show how to learn some English expressions. B. To encourage people to study English expressions. C. To tell us the kinds of English expressions and idioms. D. To share some expressions about our head and shoulders. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些使用“head”或“shoulder”的英语表达方式。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“And if something costs an arm and a leg, it is very expensive.(如果某物costs an arm and a leg，意思是它非常昂贵。)”可知, You spend an arm and a leg表示你花了太多钱。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“We call people who give us a shoulder to lean on or cry on our ‘support system’.(我们把那些给我们肩膀依靠或哭泣的人称为“支持系统”。)”可知，“给我们肩膀去倚靠或哭泣的人”，我们称之为我们的“支持系统”。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“If you have a good head on your shoulders, you are thoughtful and smart and you often achieve success in life.(如果你有一个好的头在你的肩膀上，你是深思熟虑和聪明的，你经常在生活中取得成功。)”可知, “有一个好的头在肩膀上的人”是深思熟虑和聪明的，在生活中会取得成功。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“Many English expressions and idioms use parts of the body to describe things unrelated to the body.(许多英语表达和习语使用身体的某些部位来描述与身体无关的事物。)”以及第二段的“Well, today, we talk about your shoulder. This part connects your arm to your body. And the shoulder finds its way into many expressions.(今天，我们来谈谈你的肩膀。这部分连接你的手臂和身体。肩膀在很多表达中都有它的用法。)”和倒数第二段中的“Now, from our shoulders, let’s move up to our heads.(现在，让我们从肩膀开始，到头部。)”可推知，本文的目的是分享一些使用“head”或“shoulder”的英语表达方式。故选D。 D A young Dutch inventor is widening his effort to cleanup floating (浮动的) plastic from the Pacific Ocean. He has developed a floating device (设备) to trap plastic waste moving into rivers before it reaches the oceans. Boyan Slat was just 18 years old when he invented a system for catching waste in the ocean. He also founded an environmental group called “The Ocean Cleanup”. Its purpose is to develop the system. Last year, Slat showed the next step: a floating device which is called Interceptor. It removes plastic out of rivers. The device is powered by energy from the sun. “The 1,000 rivers are responsible for about 80% of plastic going into the world’s oceans,” said Slat. Three of the machines have already been used. Each machine costs about $775, 660, but the cost might drop as production increases. Since they were used, the machines have been doing very well, collecting the plastic bottles and all the rubbish in the rivers. According to Slat, it is necessary to close “the tap”, which means preventing more plastic from reaching the ocean in the first place. He wanted to clean them all in the next five years. “This is not going to be easy, but if we do get this done, we could truly make our oceans again, ”said Slat. The device is designed to be safe in rivers. Its nose is shaped to change directions to keep it away from larger floating things. It works by guiding plastic waste into an opening in the front of the device. The waste is then carried inside the machine where it is dropped into containers. The devices ends a text message to local operators that can come and empty it when it is full. 12. What do we know about Interceptor? A. It needs solar power to work. B. It is mainly used in the oceans. C. It is being under test. D. It can help sort waste. 13. What does “the tap” refer to in Paragraph 3? A. The waste. B. The oceans. C. The machines. D. The rivers. 14. What’s the function of the device’s nose? A. To ensure the device’s safety. B. To send operators text messages. C. To empty the waste. D. To serve as containers. 15. Where is the text most likely from? A. A novel. B. A magazine. C. A diary. D. A guidebook. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。介绍了一位年轻的荷兰发明家Boyan Slat正在努力清理太平洋漂浮塑料。他开发了一种漂浮装置，可以在塑料垃圾流入河流之前捕获它们。文章介绍了Boyan Slat发明这种名为“Interceptor”的装置的经过，这种装置的工作方式和原理，以及Interceptor装置收集垃圾的工作情况。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Last year, Slat showed the next step: a floating device called Interceptor. It removes plastic out of rivers. The device is powered by energy from the sun.(去年，Slat展示了下一步：一个被称为Interceptor的浮动设备。它能清除河流中的塑料。该装置由太阳能提供动力)”可知，Interceptor需要太阳能来工作。故选A。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Since they were used, the machines have been doing very well, collecting the plastic bottles and all the rubbish in the rivers.(自从这些机器被使用以来，它们在收集河里的塑料瓶和所有垃圾方面一直做得很好)”以及“which means preventing more plastic from reaching the ocean in the first place.(这意味着首先要防止更多的塑料流入海洋)”可知，机器清理河流里面的塑料和垃圾，可得出Slat认为有必要关闭河流，这样可以防止更多的塑料流入海洋。故the tap指的是“河流”。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The device is designed to be safe in rivers. Its nose is shaped to change directions to keep it away from larger floating things.(这种装置在河流中是安全的。它的突出部分的形状是为了改变方向，以使它远离更大的漂浮物体)”可知，这个装置的突出部分用于确保设备安全。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“A young Dutch inventor is widening his effort to clean up floating plastic from the Pacific Ocean. He has developed a floating device to trap plastic waste moving into rivers before it reaches the oceans.(一位年轻的荷兰发明家正在努力清理太平洋漂浮塑料。他开发了一种漂浮装置，可以在塑料垃圾流入河流之前捕获它们)”结合文章介绍了Boyan Slat发明这种名为“Interceptor”的装置的经过，这种装置的工作方式和原理，以及Interceptor装置收集垃圾的工作情况。结合选项可推知，文章属于科技类说明文，很可能来自一本杂志。故选B。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项, 选项中有两项为多余项。 Thanks to globalization (全球化), we can find all sorts of fruit and vegetables from all over the world in supermarkets.

B 18. A 19. D 20. G 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了时令水果和蔬菜的好处。 【16题详解】 根据上文提示“But we have four different seasons and each season has different weather conditions.(但是我们有四个不同的季节，每个季节都有不同的天气条件)”可知，在不同的季节种不同的庄稼。所以，E项That’s why different foods grow better at different times of the year in a specific country.(这就是为什么在一个特定的国家，不同的食物在一年的不同时间长得更好)切题。故选E。 【17题详解】 根据下文提示“Fruit and vegetables in season are usually better quality, richer in flavor and have higher nutritional value.(时令水果和蔬菜通常质量更好，味道更丰富，营养价值更高)”可知，下文中的“better quality, richer in flavor and have higher nutritional value”与B项中的healthier相吻合。所以，B项Fruit and vegetables in season and locally sourced are healthier.(当季水果和蔬菜，本地采购更健康)切题。故选B。 【18题详解】 根据上文提示“Eating seasonal and locally sourced foods is good for the local economy.(吃时令和当地采购的食物对当地经济有好处)”可知，上文中的good for the local economy说明当地人们容易找到工作。所以，A项Buying local foods helps create jobs.(购买当地食物有助于创造就业机会)切题。故选A。 【19题详解】 根据上文提示“Moreover, local fruit and vegetables in season are usually not packed in plastic.(此外，当地时令水果和蔬菜通常不用塑料包装)”可知，这样避免了包装垃圾。所以，D项Avoiding packaging waste contributes to reducing our impact on the planet.(避免包装垃圾有助于减少我们对地球的影响)切题。故选D。 【20题详解】 根据上文提示“Common misunderstandings about seasonal foods are that they are expensive.(对季节性食品的普遍误解是它们很贵)”及下文提示“There are plenty of local markets that sell cheap in-season fruit and vegetables at the end of each day.(每天结束时，有很多当地市场出售廉价的时令水果和蔬菜)”可知，时令水果和蔬菜是便宜的。所以，G项Instead, eating seasonal and locally sourced fruit and vegetables will save you money.(相反，吃时令的和当地采购的水果和蔬菜会帮你省钱)切题。该项中的instead与上文构成转折关系，不但不贵，而且能节约钱。故选G。 第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节, 满分30分) 第一节(共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A long time ago, there lived a girl named Lilly.When she started going to school, she was___21___.

They always played together and went home together. One day, Robert and Henry were going home from school. On turning a corner, Robert cried out, “Oh! Look, a fight! Let's go and see!” “None of our business!” said Henry. “Let us go home quietly and not meddle（管闲事）with it. Or we may get into trouble. Also, our parents are expecting to have dinner with us and I don't want them to worry about me.” “You are a coward（胆小鬼）!”said Robert running off angrily. Henry went straight home, and in the afternoon went to school as usual. But Robert had told all the boys in class what happened to Henry and they laughed at him a great deal. From then on, they looked down upon Henry and wouldn't play with him. Henry was a bit sad but he wasn't angry with them for Robert's rude behavior, because he knew that they misunderstood him, and that he was just afraid of doing wrong. Thus, he ignored their laughter and continued to focus on his study. However, Robert didn't invite Henry to go home together with him any more. Instead, he befriended the boys who regarded Henry as a coward. Every day after school, they didn't go back home directly but went to the river or somewhere to play games and had a lot of fun. A few days later, with all of his learning tasks completed and feeling a little tired, Henry decided to take a walk along the river. All of a sudden, he heard someone crying for help. Knowing someone was in danger, Henry ran in the direction of crying as quickly as he could. While getting closer, he saw a boy struggling in the water with several boys that often played with Robert recently onshore, knowing nothing to do. 46. 根据文本内容从方框中选择恰当的词并用其正确形式填入文本图示中，每词限用一次，有两词为多余选项。 worry help tell friend fight focus walk advise distance require return expect Robert and Henry were very ______ to each other and they often played and went home together.

How did Henry react to their rude behaviour? ______________________________________________________________________________________ 49. What would Henry do when he saw the drowning boy struggling in the river?

Worrying ④. advice ⑤. told ⑥. distance ⑦. focused ⑧. return ⑨. walking ⑩. helping 47. Because they misunderstood Henry. 48. He ignored their laughter and continued to focus on his study. 49.

So it is wiser to ask for the adults’ help instead if jumping into the river himself. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，文章讲述了两个好朋友因为放学路上的一点小事产生误解，并且引起了同学们的关注。一天放学后，其中一人发现另一人掉入河中。 【46题详解】 1. 根据第一段“Robert and Henry were two friends in the same class. （罗伯特和亨利是同一个班级里的两个朋友。）”可知，他们是朋友，故互相是友善的，故填friendly。 2. 根据第一段“Oh! Look, a fight! Let's go and see! （哦！看，有人在打架！我们去看看吧！）”可知，有人打架，这里需要使用现在分词表示动作正在发生，故填fighting。 3. 根据第二段““None of our business!” said Henry. “Let us go home quietly and not meddle（管闲事）with it. Or we may get into trouble. Also, our parents are expecting to have dinner with us and I don't want them to worry about me.” （“不关我们的事！”亨利说。“让我们安静地回家，不要插手这件事。否则我们可能会陷入麻烦。另外，我们的父母期待和我们一起吃晚饭，我不想让他们担心我。”）”可知，Henry担心家长会着急，所以没有听Robert的。Worry首字母大写，且使用现在分词作状语；故答案填Worrying。 4. 根据第二段““None of our business!” said Henry. “Let us go home quietly and not meddle（管闲事）with it. Or we may get into trouble. Also, our parents are expecting to have dinner with us and I don't want them to worry about me.” （“不关我们的事！”亨利说。“让我们安静地回家，不要插手这件事。否则我们可能会陷入麻烦。另外，我们的父母期待和我们一起吃晚饭，我不想让他们担心我。”）”可知，Henry担心家长会着急，所以没有听Robert的。take one’s advice是固定搭配，故答案填advice。 5. 根据第四段“But Robert had told all the boys in class what happened to Henry and they laughed at him a great deal. From then on, they looked down upon Henry and wouldn't play with him. （但是罗伯特已经告诉了班上所有的男孩发生在亨利身上的事情，他们都嘲笑了他很多。从那时起，他们开始看不起亨利，不愿意和他一起玩。）”可知，Robert告诉了同学们，这里应该一般过去时。故答案填told。 6. 根据第四段“But Robert had told all the boys in class what happened to Henry and they laughed at him a great deal. From then on, they looked down upon Henry and wouldn't play with him. （但是罗伯特已经告诉了班上所有的男孩发生在亨利身上的事情，他们都嘲笑了他很多。从那时起，他们开始看不起亨利，不愿意和他一起玩。）”可知，Robert告诉了同学们，导致同学们不愿意和Henry一起玩，这就是疏远了Henry，distance可以做动词，意思是“疏远”。此处与前面的laugh at并列用省略to的不定式作宾补，故答案填distance。 7. 根据第五段“Thus, he ignored their laughter and continued to focus on his study. （因此，他无视了他们的嘲笑，继续专注于他的学习。）”可知，Henry继续专注于学习。故答案填focused。 8. 根据第六段“Every day after school, they didn't go back home directly but went to the river or somewhere to play games and had a lot of fun. （每天放学后，他们并不直接回家，而是去河边或其他地方玩游戏，玩得非常开心。）”可知，他们没有回家，go back是return的同义词，didn't 后用动词原形，故答案填return。 9. 根据第七段“A few days later, with all of his learning tasks completed and feeling a little tired, Henry decided to take a walk along the river. （几天后，亨利完成了所有的学习任务，感到有点疲倦，决定沿着河边散步。）”可知，Henry在河边散步，在题目中，walk充当非谓语动词，与Henry 之间是主动关系，应该使用现在分词形式作状语，故答案填walking。 10. 根据第七段“While getting closer, he saw a boy struggling in the water with several boys that often played with Robert recently onshore, knowing nothing to do. （当他走近时，他看到一个男孩在水中挣扎，而最近经常和罗伯特一起玩的几个男孩在岸上，不知所措。）”可知，孩子们站在周围想要帮忙，但却无从下手，可以将help变成helping，形容词“提供帮助的、想要帮忙的”，修饰男孩儿们。故答案填helping。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Henry was a bit sad but he wasn't angry with them for Robert's rude behavior, because he knew that they misunderstood him, and that he was just afraid of doing wrong. （亨利有点难过，但他并没有因为罗伯特的粗鲁行为而对他们生气，因为他知道他们误解了他，他只是害怕做错事。）”可知，同学们是误会了Henry才会这样做，故答案填Because they misunderstood Henry.。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Thus, he ignored their laughter and continued to focus on his study. （因此，他无视了他们的嘲笑，继续专注于他的学习。）”可知，Henry无视他们的嘲笑，继续专注于学习，故答案填He ignored their laughter and continued to focus on his study.。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。这道题是一个开放性题目，考生应该根据故事发展进行合理创作。根据最后一段“While getting closer, he saw a boy struggling in the water with several boys that often played with Robert recently onshore, knowing nothing to do. （当他走近时，他看到一个男孩在水中挣扎，而最近经常和罗伯特一起玩的几个男孩在岸上，不知所措。）”可知，掉在河里的男孩儿很可能就是Robert，Henry一定要去施救，但是一定要保住自己的安全为前提，最合适的做法是向附近的成年人求救。故答案填He will run as quickly as possible to ask for help of grown-ups nearby. Because the boy struggling in the river is Robert, and he must save his friend, only on the premise that he is safe. So it is wiser to ask for the adults’ help instead if jumping into the river himself. 第五部分 书面表达 (满分20分) 50. 假如你是李华，你校将举行主题为“The Power of Communication”的英语演讲比赛，请你结合自己的经历写一篇演讲稿参赛，内容需包括： 1. 交流沟通的重要性； 2. 你的经历。 注意：1. 词数100词左右；2. 可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear teachers and fellow students, I’m Li Hua. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Dear teachers and fellow students, I’m Li Hua.

For many of us, including me, that person is our own mother. But in my case, there is another person who is my perfect mentor (导师) and friend. It’s Nana, my mum’s father. My Nana, since I was a kid, brought me up in the most unforgettable way possible, babying me by buying toys and presenting me with sweets and candies constantly and spending time with me, which created an everlasting bond between us. Fast-forward a couple of years, when I began to outgrow these toys or candies, Nana didn’t just stop there. He began taking me almost every weekend to the local club where he had a membership. It meant the world to me as I could do absolutely whatever I pleased there. Other than that, Nana would take me to many parks, especially when there was a flower show on or something of that sort. He was very enthusiastic about nature and spent hours around it, enjoying what it had to offer. Anyhow, his immense love didn’t end there... My Nana had grown older. Now he finds it hard to drive and walk too much, so he prefers to stay at home. What I do now is to try to give him company and talk to him mainly about his travels at sea, as he was a sailor, and the various countries he visited and how he spent his early years and about my school, etc. I’ll never be able to repay my Nana for all the kindness and comfort he gave to me. Thank you, Nana, from the bottom of my heart for all you’ve done for me. 4. For most people, who would set an example to them in their lives? A. Mother. B. Father. C. Grandpa. D. Teachers. 5. What does the underlined word “outgrow” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Grow too quickly than others to play. B. Change and no longer think in that way. C. Grow too big to be able to fit into them. D. Lose interest in something as someone gets older. 6. What was Nana extremely interested in? A. Sports cars. B. Various plants. C. Children’s toys. D. Different local clubs. 7. How does the writer repay her old Nana? A. By doing what he did at early years. B. By traveling with him behind the wheel. C. By companying and chatting with him. D. By sending him gifts for what he did for her. C Many English expressions and idioms use parts of the body to describe things unrelated to the body. For example, a green thumb means to be good at growing vegetables, flowers and other plants. And if something costs an arm and a leg, it is very expensive. Well, today, we talk about your shoulder. This part connects your arm to your body. And the shoulder finds its way into many expressions. For starters, let’s talk about “shoulder” as a verb. If you shoulder something, you accept it as your responsibility; you give support, or you take the blame. And this is a great place to start. This idea of taking responsibility and giving support leads us to some other “shoulder” expressions. For example, during difficult times in our lives, it is often necessary to have a shoulder to lean (倚靠) on or a shoulder to cry on. When we lean on someone’s shoulder, we ask for their help. When we cry on someone’s shoulder, they are there for support. We call people who give us a shoulder to lean on or cry on our “support system”. There is another way our shoulders give us support. If you are successful in your career but others have come before you, you can say you are standing on the shoulders of giants. This means you have not succeeded on your own. You have learned from others in the same field who had earlier successes. Now, from our shoulders, let’s move up to our heads. Our heads are centered between our shoulders. So, it should not be surprising that we have a couple of expressions that use both. If you have a good head on your shoulders, you are thoughtful and smart and you often achieve success in life. This means you are much better than those in a similar field or competition. 8. Which expression shows that someone pays too much money? A. You cry on a shoulder. B. You spend an arm and a leg. C.

He has developed a floating device (设备) to trap plastic waste moving into rivers before it reaches the oceans. Boyan Slat was just 18 years old when he invented a system for catching waste in the ocean. He also founded an environmental group called “The Ocean Cleanup”. Its purpose is to develop the system. Last year, Slat showed the next step: a floating device which is called Interceptor. It removes plastic out of rivers. The device is powered by energy from the sun. “The 1,000 rivers are responsible for about 80% of plastic going into the world’s oceans,” said Slat. Three of the machines have already been used. Each machine costs about $775, 660, but the cost might drop as production increases. Since they were used, the machines have been doing very well, collecting the plastic bottles and all the rubbish in the rivers. According to Slat, it is necessary to close “the tap”, which means preventing more plastic from reaching the ocean in the first place. He wanted to clean them all in the next five years. “This is not going to be easy, but if we do get this done, we could truly make our oceans again, ”said Slat. The device is designed to be safe in rivers. Its nose is shaped to change directions to keep it away from larger floating things. It works by guiding plastic waste into an opening in the front of the device. The waste is then carried inside the machine where it is dropped into containers. The devices ends a text message to local operators that can come and empty it when it is full. 12. What do we know about Interceptor? A. It needs solar power to work. B. It is mainly used in the oceans. C It is being under test. D. It can help sort waste. 13. What does “the tap” refer to in Paragraph 3? A. The waste. B. The oceans. C. The machines. D. The rivers. 14. What’s the function of the device’s nose? A. To ensure the device’s safety. B. To send operators text messages. C. To empty the waste. D. To serve as containers. 15. Where is the text most likely from? A. A novel. B. A magazine. C. A diary. D. A guidebook. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项, 选项中有两项为多余项。 Thanks to globalization (全球化), we can find all sorts of fruit and vegetables from all over the world in supermarkets.

One day, Robert and Henry were going home from school. On turning a corner, Robert cried out, “Oh! Look, a fight! Let's go and see!” “None of our business!” said Henry. “Let us go home quietly and not meddle（管闲事）with it. Or we may get into trouble. Also, our parents are expecting to have dinner with us and I don't want them to worry about me.” “You are a coward（胆小鬼）!”said Robert, running off angrily. Henry went straight home, and in the afternoon went to school as usual. But Robert had told all the boys in class what happened to Henry and they laughed at him a great deal. From then on, they looked down upon Henry and wouldn't play with him. Henry was a bit sad but he wasn't angry with them for Robert's rude behavior because he knew that they misunderstood him, and that he was just afraid of doing wrong. Thus, he ignored their laughter and continued to focus on his study. However, Robert didn't invite Henry to go home together with him any more. Instead, he befriended the boys who regarded Henry as a coward. Every day after school, they didn't go back home directly but went to the river or somewhere to play games and had a lot of fun. A few days later, with all of his learning tasks completed and feeling a little tired, Henry decided to take a walk along the river. All of a sudden, he heard someone crying for help.
