They’re a great way for teens to make friends and learn valuable lessons about life. If you’re seeking a good summer camp to attend, the first thing you should do is to decide what type of camp would be most suitable to your interests and goals. Traditional Camps When you just want the sort of camp in classic films, a traditional overnight camp might be just what you need to grow, learn, and relax this coming summer. These sorts of camps offer more vigorous outdoors activities, yet often allow campers to customize their camping experiences. Chewonki Camp As one of the best summer camps in the country by Boston Magazine, this camp aims to help teens learn about natural history and ecology, and the campers get treats like sailing trips and hiking excursions, besides formal instruction in such things as kayaking, swimming, field sports, and photography. Camp Wicosuta As a top-rated, traditional four-week sleep away camp especially for young ladies, Camp Wicosuta has more than 30 different activities to help teens learn to cook and wash themselves, which aims to help young girls focus on building their self-confidence. Academic Camps Many teens like to advance their education during the summer months while also having fun. There are hundreds of academic camps for them to choose from that specialize in various academic subjects like journalism, languages, law, computers, and sciences. 1. You should decide what camp to attend according to _______. A. personal interests and goals B. camping time and place C. items and activities D. your values and customs 2. Which can be the most suitable for a person who likes sailing and hiking? A. Traditional Camps. B. Camp Wicosuta. C. Chewonki Camp. D. Academic Camps. 3. What is the purpose of the activities that teach teens to cook themselves? A. To let teens learn and get relaxed. B. To help girls learn practical skills. C. To make teens focus on science. D. To help girls build self-confidence. 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＂. 4. A month before the marathon, the author ____________. A. was well trained B. felt scared C. made up his mind to run D. lost hope 5. 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. 6. 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. 7. 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 It has long been known that plants communicate when they are stressed. You need only observe a houseplant to realize that a plant wilts (枯萎) when it needs water. Some plants may also emit a terrible taste to prevent some insects from hurting them. Now, a new study that was conducted by researchers at Tel Aviv University, shows that not only do plants express themselves in the above ways when stressed, they also make sounds, like talking. According to the researchers, plants make sounds at frequencies (频率) between 40 to 80 KHZ — out of the range of human ears — but within the range of some animals. “Bats make sounds in these ranges all the time, and mice, dogs and cats can partially hear within it,” Dr. Lilach Hadany, a Professor at Tel Aviv University, and one of the authors of the study said. One of the primary breakthroughs (突破) of Hadany’s study is that the researchers have managed to understand and classify the sounds that plants make for the first time. Plants that are not stressed make about one noise per hour, but plants that are stressed or injured make many hundreds of sounds per hour. And each of these sounds seemed to be specific to the type of stress the plant was under. This type of information could be important for agriculture. Knowing what sounds their plants are making could help farmers determine whether their crops are in danger of drought or disease and allow them to make the necessary changes to help their plants. Amazingly enough, the researchers are not actually sure how the plants make sounds. But anyway, the discovery is still a game-changer for plant science, and potentially for the future of agriculture. One day soon your plants may be able to tell you if they are hungry, thirsty, or just feeling lonely. 8. What does the underlined word “emit” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Give off. B. Add to. C. Clear up. D. Take in. 9. Which of the following is most likely to hear plants talk? A. Humans. B. Bats. C. Mice. D. Dogs. 10. What is the breakthrough of Hadany’s study? A. They’ve found plants can communicate with each other. B. They’ve used plants’ sounds to improve agriculture. C. They can understand and classify plants’ sounds. D. They’ve discovered how plants make sounds. 11. What can be a best title for the text? A. Scientists Discover the Language of Plants B. Animals Understand Plants’ Language C. Plants Communicate in Various Ways D. Stress Makes Plants Talk D There are over 6,000 languages spoken in the world. But did you know that some of them are in danger of dying out? From Dusner (three speakers) to Kelabit (five thousand), these languages are spread all over the world, but they all have one thing in common: unless we act soon, they could become extinct (灭绝的). Researchers at Oxford University are studying these languages. And Dr. Johanneke Sytsema, who has organized a popular seminar (研讨会) on endangered languages, thinks there could be a magic bullet for keeping minority (少数) languages alive: social media (社交媒体). “Social media could help save a language,” Dr. Sytsema says. “Because young people text each other in the same way they speak, even if they don’t know how to spell it.” Dr. Sytsema has first-hand experience: she speaks Frisian. Frisian, spoken in a province in the Netherlands called Friesland, has 350,000 speakers. Using her own language has given Dr. Sytsema food for thought about how languages could be saved in the future. “In Friesland, young people who don’t learn much Frisian writing at school send each other messages on social media in Frisian,” she says. In this way, a new generation of Frisian speakers keeps the language alive. According to Dr. Sytsema, our languages, like our wildlife, are natural creations. “Natural beauty needs to be protected. Once languages die, you don’t get them back, because they’ve grown over thousands and thousands of years,” Dr. Sytsema explains. “Every language has its own beauty. And that’s why it’s so important.” 12. Why does the author mention Dusner and Kelabit? A. To describe the richness of human language. B. To discuss the influence of language on culture. C. To explain the importance of cultural exchange. D. To show the serious situation of endangered languages. 13. What do the underlined words “a magic bullet” mean in paragraph 2? A. A challenging task. B. An effective solution. C. An open standard. D. A common goal. 14. What gave Dr. Sytsema the idea of language protection? A. Teaching at a language school. B. The popularity of social media. C. Her personal experience with Frisian. D. Working with young people in Friesland. 15. What message does Dr. Sytsema want to give us in the last paragraph? A. The young hold the key to language protection. B. A language is well worth saving. C. The extinction of languages can be avoided. D. Society is shaping human language. 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选项。 How to Have a Successful Teenage Life Everyone dreams of success in their life, don't they?

Thinking of his quarrel with his mother for his study, he still felt depressed and hopeless. It was freezing and snowing at dusk on such a winter day. He was walking down an empty set where there were no passers-by, because people must have locked themselves at home for warmth. Jonathan was walking to a crossroads when suddenly he encountered a little boy stuck in the middle of the road alone like him. Jonathan had meant to turn a blind eye to him at first. But the boy’s sad crying and the worry that he might be hit by cars made Jonathan just not walk away. He approached, asking worriedly, “How did you come here? What’s your name?” “I’m Leo. I was playing with my cat. He ran away, and I ran after him for a long distance. But when I turned back home, I lost my way,” cried the boy. Feeling pity for the boy, Jonathan decided that he couldn’t leave the little boy alone here. With no cellphone and considering the police station was far from here, Jonathan decided to help him first. He took him to different neighborhoods, aiming to look for his home. But things didn’t go that smoothly as he had expected. It was getting darker, and Jonathan thought he had to find Leo’s home. He knocked on every door, noneffective. It was snowing more heavily, and he removed his coat and put it around Leo.

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。 【4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。 【5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。 【6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。 【7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 It has long been known that plants communicate when they are stressed. You need only observe a houseplant to realize that a plant wilts (枯萎) when it needs water. Some plants may also emit a terrible taste to prevent some insects from hurting them. Now, a new study that was conducted by researchers at Tel Aviv University, shows that not only do plants express themselves in the above ways when stressed, they also make sounds, like talking. According to the researchers, plants make sounds at frequencies (频率) between 40 to 80 KHZ — out of the range of human ears — but within the range of some animals. “Bats make sounds in these ranges all the time, and mice, dogs and cats can partially hear within it,” Dr. Lilach Hadany, a Professor at Tel Aviv University, and one of the authors of the study said. One of the primary breakthroughs (突破) of Hadany’s study is that the researchers have managed to understand and classify the sounds that plants make for the first time. Plants that are not stressed make about one noise per hour, but plants that are stressed or injured make many hundreds of sounds per hour. And each of these sounds seemed to be specific to the type of stress the plant was under. This type of information could be important for agriculture. Knowing what sounds their plants are making could help farmers determine whether their crops are in danger of drought or disease and allow them to make the necessary changes to help their plants. Amazingly enough, the researchers are not actually sure how the plants make sounds. But anyway, the discovery is still a game-changer for plant science, and potentially for the future of agriculture. One day soon your plants may be able to tell you if they are hungry, thirsty, or just feeling lonely. 8. What does the underlined word “emit” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Give off. B. Add to. C. Clear up. D. Take in. 9. Which of the following is most likely to hear plants talk? A. Humans. B. Bats. C. Mice. D. Dogs. 10. What is the breakthrough of Hadany’s study? A. They’ve found plants can communicate with each other. B. They’ve used plants’ sounds to improve agriculture. C. They can understand and classify plants’ sounds. D. They’ve discovered how plants make sounds. 11. What can be a best title for the text? A. Scientists Discover the Language of Plants B. Animals Understand Plants’ Language C. Plants Communicate in Various Ways D. Stress Makes Plants Talk 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家发现了植物会因为受到压力或伤害而发出声音的现象。 【详解】1. 词句猜测题。根据第一段画线单词所在句子“Some plants may also emit a terrible taste to prevent some insects from hurting them”（有些植物也可能emit可怕的味道，以防止一些昆虫伤害它们。）可知，植物“emit terrible taste”的行为的目的是防止某些昆虫伤害它们，而前文又提到这是它们“communicate(交流)”的一种例子，由此推断它们会释放这种不好的味道，和give off“散发出”意思一样。故选A项。 2. 细节理解题。根据第三段“plants make sounds at frequencies (频率) between 40 to 80 KHZ — out of the range of human ears — but within the range of some animals. ‘Bats make sounds in these ranges all the time...’”（植物发出声音的频率在40到80千赫之间，超出了人类的听觉范围，但在某些动物的听觉范围之内。“蝙蝠总是在这些范围内发出声音”）可知，bats发出的声音频率范围与植物一致，因此它们最有可能听到植物发出的声音。故选B项。 3. 细节理解题。根据第四段“One of the primary breakthroughs (突破) of Hadany’s study is that the researchers have managed to understand and classify the sounds that plants make for the first time.”（哈达尼研究的主要突破之一是，研究人员首次理解并分类了植物发出的声音。）可知，目前Hadany团队的研究突破在于他们第一次理解并分类了植物发出的声音。故选C项。 4. 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“Now, a new study that was conducted by researchers at Tel Aviv University, shows that not only do plants express themselves in the above ways when stressed, they also make sounds, like talking.”（现在，一项由特拉维夫大学研究人员进行的新研究表明，当受到压力时，植物不仅会以上述方式表达自己，它们还会发出声音，比如说说话。）可知，本文主要介绍了科学家Hadany的研究团队的最新研究成果——植物能够因为各种原因而发出声音，A项“ 科学家发现植物的语言”适合做文章标题。故选A项。 D There are over 6,000 languages spoken in the world. But did you know that some of them are in danger of dying out? From Dusner (three speakers) to Kelabit (five thousand), these languages are spread all over the world, but they all have one thing in common: unless we act soon, they could become extinct (灭绝的). Researchers at Oxford University are studying these languages. And Dr. Johanneke Sytsema, who has organized a popular seminar (研讨会) on endangered languages, thinks there could be a magic bullet for keeping minority (少数) languages alive: social media (社交媒体). “Social media could help save a language,” Dr. Sytsema says. “Because young people text each other in the same way they speak, even if they don’t know how to spell it.” Dr. Sytsema has first-hand experience: she speaks Frisian. Frisian, spoken in a province in the Netherlands called Friesland, has 350,000 speakers. Using her own language has given Dr. Sytsema food for thought about how languages could be saved in the future. “In Friesland, young people who don’t learn much Frisian writing at school send each other messages on social media in Frisian,” she says. In this way, a new generation of Frisian speakers keeps the language alive. According to Dr. Sytsema, our languages, like our wildlife, are natural creations. “Natural beauty needs to be protected. Once languages die, you don’t get them back, because they’ve grown over thousands and thousands of years,” Dr. Sytsema explains. “Every language has its own beauty. And that’s why it’s so important.” 12. Why does the author mention Dusner and Kelabit? A. To describe the richness of human language. B. To discuss the influence of language on culture. C. To explain the importance of cultural exchange. D. To show the serious situation of endangered languages. 13. What do the underlined words “a magic bullet” mean in paragraph 2? A. A challenging task. B. An effective solution. C. An open standard. D. A common goal. 14. What gave Dr. Sytsema the idea of language protection? A. Teaching at a language school. B. The popularity of social media. C. Her personal experience with Frisian. D. Working with young people in Friesland. 15. What message does Dr. Sytsema want to give us in the last paragraph? A. The young hold the key to language protection. B A language is well worth saving. C. The extinction of languages can be avoided. D. Society is shaping human language. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，介绍了世界上有许多语言面临着灭绝的危险，而牛津大学的研究人员对此进行研究，Dr. Johanneke Sytsema认为社交媒体或许是拯救濒危语言的有效办法，并且她以自己使用弗里斯兰语的亲身经历来阐述语言值得被保护的观点，强调每种语言都有其独特价值，保护语言十分重要。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“There are over 6,000 languages spoken in the world. But did you know that some of them are in danger of dying out? From Dusner (three speakers) to Kelabit (five thousand), these languages are spread all over the world, but they all have one thing in common: unless we act soon, they could become extinct (灭绝的) (世界上有超过6000种语言被使用。但你知道吗，其中一些语言正面临灭绝的危险？从只有三个说话者的Dusner到有五千说话者的Kelabit，这些语言遍布世界各地，但它们都有一个共同点：除非我们尽快采取行动，否则它们可能会灭绝)”可知，文章先是指出世界上语言众多，但有些语言面临灭绝危险，接着列举了Dusner和Kelabit这两种语言，其目的就是为了展示濒危语言所处的严峻形势，故选D项。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Researchers at Oxford University are studying these languages. And Dr. Johanneke Sytsema, who has organized a popular seminar (研讨会) on endangered languages, thinks there could be a magic bullet for keeping minority (少数) languages alive: social media (社交媒体) ( 牛津大学的研究人员正在研究这些语言。而组织了关于濒危语言的流行研讨会的约翰尼克·西茨玛博士认为，保持少数民族语言活力的一个……可能是社交媒体)”以及“Because young people text each other in the same way they speak, even if they don’t know how to spell it. (因为年轻人发短信的方式和他们说话一样，即使他们不知道如何拼写)”可知，牛津大学的研究人员在研究濒危语言，而Dr. Sytsema认为社交媒体对于让少数语言存活下来是一种“a magic bullet”，从后文具体阐述社交媒体能帮助年轻人用濒危语言交流从而使其得以延续等内容来看，这里“a magic bullet”应是指一种有效的解决办法，能够帮助解决濒危语言存活的问题，故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Dr. Sytsema has first-hand experience: she speaks Frisian. Frisian, spoken in a province in the Netherlands called Friesland, has 350,000 speakers. Using her own language has given Dr. Sytsema food for thought about how languages could be saved in the future. (西茨玛博士有第一手的经验：她讲弗里斯兰语。弗里斯兰语在荷兰一个叫弗里斯兰的省份讲，有35万讲这种语言的人。使用她自己的语言让西茨玛博士思考了如何在未来拯救语言)”可知，Dr. Sytsema自身会说弗里斯兰语，她看到在荷兰弗里斯兰省年轻人通过在社交媒体上用弗里斯兰语发信息的方式让这种语言得以延续，正是她使用自己语言的亲身经历让她有了关于语言保护的想法，故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“According to Dr. Sytsema, our languages, like our wildlife, are natural creations. “Natural beauty needs to be protected. Once languages die, you don’t get them back, because they’ve grown over thousands and thousands of years,” Dr. Sytsema explains. “Every language has its own beauty. And that’s why it’s so important.”(西茨玛博士表示，我们的语言就像我们的野生动物一样，都是自然的产物。“自然之美需要得到保护。一旦语言消亡，你就再也得不到它们了，因为它们已经生长了数千年，”西茨玛博士解释道。“每种语言都有自己的美。这就是为什么它如此重要。”)”，可知西茨玛博士将语言比作自然创造物，指出自然之美需要保护，语言一旦消亡就无法挽回，且每种语言都有自身之美，所以其想传达的信息就是语言是非常值得去拯救保护的，故选B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能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Have a Successful Teenage Life Everyone dreams of success in their life, don't they?

Thinking of his quarrel with his mother for his study, he still felt depressed and hopeless. It was freezing and snowing at dusk on such a winter day. He was walking down an empty set where there were no passers-by, because people must have locked themselves at home for warmth. Jonathan was walking to a crossroads when suddenly he encountered a little boy stuck in the middle of the road alone like him. Jonathan had meant to turn a blind eye to him at first. But the boy’s sad crying and the worry that he might be hit by cars made Jonathan just not walk away. He approached, asking worriedly, “How did you come here? What’s your name?” “I’m Leo. I was playing with my cat. He ran away, and I ran after him for a long distance. But when I turned back home, I lost my way,” cried the boy. Feeling pity for the boy, Jonathan decided that he couldn’t leave the little boy alone here. With no cellphone and considering the police station was far from here, Jonathan decided to help him first. He took him to different neighborhoods, aiming to look for his home. But things didn’t go that smoothly as he had expected. It was getting darker, and Jonathan thought he had to find Leo’s home. He knocked on every door, noneffective. It was snowing more heavily, and he removed his coat and put it around Leo. Paragraph 1: Suddenly, a police car was drawing, and Jonathan waved with excitement to it. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Seeing Leo and his parents off, Jonathan was lost in thought. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Suddenly, a police car was drawing, and Jonathan waved with excitement to it. To his relief, the police car pulled up and two policemen got off. Jonathan couldn’t wait to explain what had happened to Leo. Then, the policemen checked for any missing person’s report without any delay, but found none. Having no choice, they drove the two of them around the nearby to continue searching for Leo’s home. Finally, they made it to contact the boy’s parents. Jonathan was more than glad to witness Leo’s reunion with his parents. Seeing Leo and his parents off, Jonathan was lost in thought. Recalling how anxious Leo’s parents were and how joyful the boy was to see his parents again just now, Jonathan was deeply touched. He thought his parents must be as worried as Leo’s. Or maybe they were anxiously searching the world for their son right now. He grew guilty for ignoring his parents’ love for him and for what he had done today. All his anger dying away in an instant, he rushed in the direction of his home. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了乔纳森为了学习和母亲争吵，于是从家里跑了出来。路上乔纳森遇到了一个迷路的男孩，于是向警察求助最后把男孩送回了家，乔纳森也因为看到男孩和家人团聚意识到了自己父母的爱，于是选择回家。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“突然，一辆警车开过来，乔纳森兴奋地向它挥手。”可知，第一段可描写乔纳森向警察求助的经过以及最终找到男孩的家。 ②由第二段首句内容“为利奥和他的父母送行，乔纳森陷入了沉思。”可知，第二段可描写乔纳森看到男孩和家人团聚时的感受。 2.续写线索：看到警车——求助警察——找到男孩父母——男孩和家人团聚——乔纳森陷入沉思——乔纳森感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①停下：pull up/pull over ②继续：continue/go on ③消失：die away/disappear 情绪类 ①高兴的：glad/delighted ②感动的：touched/moved 【点睛】[高分句型1] Having no choice, they drove the two of them around the nearby to continue searching for Leo’s home.
