Just five minutes before closing time, she heard a staff member saying, “someone is having a seizure (癫痫)”: Walking quickly towards the staff member, Diana saw a fellow shopper on the ground. She had fallen and was lying on the floor, jerking uncontrollably. A small group of people had gathered to help the woman and a staff member called an ambulance. Dian a knew that she could use what she had learned on her first aid course to help as well. Knowing it was important to keep the woman safe, one of the employees brought over a staff jacket and they put it under the woman’s head so she wouldn’t injure herself. “The seizure probably lasted only a few minutes, but it seemed much longer while it was going on,” Diana said. “When the jerking stopped, a man helped turn the woman on to her side. I then tilted her head back to help her keep breathing. After the seizure, the woman seemed not to be able to understand what we were saying and couldn’t speak. Luckily, I had learned that this can happen after a seizure and it may take some time for people to get back to normal.” “It was such a comfort when she very tentatively answered that she was OK. By this time, the ambulance was on its way, the store had closed for the night and the other shoppers who had helped at first had left.” “We all a-greed that the woman was in safe hands with the first aider and a nurse who had also stopped to help, so I started to make my way out of the store.” “As I was leaving, one of the store’s employees said, ‘thank you for your kindness’”. “I was very touched by her words, and I told her that I’d learned first aid in case something like this ever happened, and now it had. Even though the incident left me feeling very shaken, I was glad I knew what to do to help.” 4. What did Diana do to help the woman suffering from a seizure? A. She called an ambulance for her. B.

Known as OceanOneK, the robot allows its operators to feel like they’re underwater explorers, too. OceanOneK resembles a human diver from the front, with arms and hands and eyes that have 3D vision, capturing the underwater world in full color. The back of the robot has computers and eight multidirectional thrusters that help it carefully explore the sites of fragile sunken ships. When an operator at the ocean’s surface uses controls to direct OceanOneK, the robot’s touch-based feedback system causes the person to feel the water’s resistance as well as the forms of artifacts (人工制品). OceanOneK’s realistic sight and touch capabilities are enough to make people feel like they’re diving down to the depths-without the dangers or immense underwater pressure a human diver would experience. The idea for OceanOneK came from a desire to study coral reefs in the Red Sea at depths beyond the normal range for divers. While OceanOneK was designed to reach maximum depths of 656 feet, researchers had a new goal: 1 kilometer, hence the new name for OceanOneK. The researchers changed the robot’s body by using special foam to increase buoyancy (浮力) and fight the pressures of 1, 000 meters-more than 100 times what humans experience at sea level. OceanOneK also got two new types of hands and increased arm and head motion. During OceanOneK’s deep dive in February, team members discovered the robot couldn’t rise when they stopped for a thruster cheek. Flotations on the communications and power line had collapsed, causing the line to pile on the top of the robot. They were able to pull in the slack, and OceanOneK’s descent was a success. It dropped off a memorial marker on the seabed that reads, “A robot’s first touch of the deep seafloor A vast new world for humans to explore. ” Khatib a professor, called the experience an “incredible journey”. “This is the first time that a robot has been capable of going to such a depth, interacting with the environment and permitting the human operator to feel that environment. ” he said. 8. What do we know about OceanOneK? A. It has colorful eyes. B. It is remotely controlled. C. It is like a human all over. D. It explores underwater world itself. 9. What is the original idea for OceanOneK? A. To find out the mystery of the ocean. B. To save passengers from sunken planes. C. To collect treasures from shipwrecks. D. To research coral reefs in deep oceans. 10. What is wrong with OceanOneK in February? A. It failed to rise normally. B. It lost touch with the operators. C. It collapsed and piled at the seafloor. D. It floated away with sea currents. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Robots help people become ocean explorers. B. Robots explore shipwrecks on the ocean bottom. C. Robots search the ocean floor for sunken treasures. D. Robots dive into the deep ocean to locate minerals. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了加利福利亚州斯坦福大学研制的机器人OceanOneK 正以人类无法做到的方式潜入海底，使人们获得沉船和沉没的飞机等的资料。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“When an operator at the ocean’s surface uses controls to direct OceanOneK, the robot’s touch-based feedback system causes the person to feel the water’s resistance as well as the forms of artifacts (人工制品).(当海面上的操作员使用控制器来引导OceanOneK时，机器人基于触摸的反馈系统会让人感受到水的阻力以及各种形式的人工制品)”可知，海面上的操作员可以使用控制器远程控制OceanOneK，即OceanOneK是远程控制的。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The idea for OceanOneK came from a desire to study coral reefs in the Red Sea at depths beyond the normal range for divers.(OceanOneK的想法来自于对红海中超出潜水员正常范围的珊瑚礁进行研究的愿望)”可知，OceanOneK最初的想法是研究深海中的珊瑚礁。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“During OceanOneK’s deep dive in February, team members discovered the robot couldn’t rise when they stopped for a thruster cheek.(在二月份OceanOneK的深潜过程中，团队成员在停下来寻找推进器颊板时发现机器人无法上升)”可知，二月份OceanOneK出现不能正常上升的问题。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“A robot created at Stanford University in California is diving down to shipwrecks and sunken planes in a way that humans can’t do.(加利福尼亚州斯坦福大学制造的一个机器人正在以人类无法做到的方式下潜至沉船和沉没的飞机)”以及文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了机器人OceanOneK 正以人类无法做到的方式潜入海底，使人们获得沉船和沉没的飞机等的资料，所以“机器人在海底探索沉船”可以作为文章标题。故选B。 D Have you felt annoyed when a cellphone rings during the class? Something must be done to stop this. Now in New York City, USA, a rule is carried out in schools. Students can’ t even bring cellphones to school. Is it a good thing or not? Anxious parents say that cellphones are an important tool in holding New York city’s families together. “I worry about it,” said Elizabeth Lorris Ritter, a mother of a middle school kid. It’s necessary in our everyday life. We have a washing machine. We have running water, and We have cellphones.” Many American parents think cellphones connect them to their children on buses, getting out from subways, walking through unknown places. “I have her call me when she gets out of school,” said Lindsay Walt, a schoolgirl’s mother. “No one in New York is going to let their child go to school without a cellphone” What about the cellphone owners, the students? Most of the students said cellphones were essential and the cellphone was like all extra (额外的) hand or foot for them. “I feel so empty,” said May Chom, “There is also no way to listen to music on the way to school without my phone.

This seems like a simple enough question to answer. ___16___ However, the science behind weight problems is more complicated than we think. As we know, what we eat greatly affects our weight. It is widely accepted that people have 100% control over what they eat and how much they eat. This, however, is only partly true People form habits around food at a young age. ___17___ Meanwhile, the serving size and the background music can both affect how much we eat. Our bodies themselves can decide whether we are more likely to gain weight or lose weight. ___18___ If we often have delicious food over time, our brains will change. Compared to people of normal weight, fat people feel more excited when they see delicious food. ___19___ Ghrelin or hunger hormones (激素) , for example, tells the brain that the body wants food. Leptin (瘦素) , meanwhile, tells the brain that it’s time to stop eating. Ghrelin and leptin help us to maintain a healthy weight. But sometimes, they may work improperly. As we get fatter, the levels of leptin in our bodies rise. Our brains are told not to eat all the time. In the end, they would no longer trust leptin and would stop responding to its “warnings”. When we start to lose weight, leptin levels drop. ___20___ Now you know why fat people often have a tough time losing weight. They may have tried very hard, but their bodies are working against their will. A. Our brains change as we have food. B. If we eat a lot and lack exercise, we will become fat. C. Our brains think we are hungry and make us find food. D. Also, various hormones tell our brains whether we are hungry. E. They may rarely touch vegetables while overeating fried chicken. F. Additionally, our weight determines the levels of ghrelin and leptin. G. Scientists found that the tastier the food, the more excited our brains get. 【答案】16. B 17. E 18. G 19. D 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了减肥困难及其原因。 【16题详解】 根据上文“This seems like a simple enough question to answer.(这似乎是一个很简单的问题。)”和下文“However, the science behind weight problems is more complicated than we think.(然而，体重问题背后的科学比我们想象的要复杂得多。)”可知，前文提到“这个问题看似简单”，接着用“However”转折，说明实际情况并非如此简单。空处应该是一个更具体、更全面的解释使人们发胖的原因，并且与下文形成转折关系。B项：If we eat a lot and lack exercise, we will become fat.(如果我们吃得很多又缺乏运动，我们就会变胖。)符合语境。故选B。 【17题详解】 上文提到“People form habits around food at a young age.(人们在年轻时就会形成与食物相关的习惯。)”接着，E选项中的“They may rarely touch vegetables while overeating fried chicken.(他们可能很少接触蔬菜，而过量吃炸鸡。)”进一步解释了这种习惯的具体表现，即他们可能在吃炸鸡时很少吃蔬菜。这符合前文提到的“与食物相关的习惯”的语境。故选E。 【18题详解】 根据下文“If we often have delicious food over time, our brains will change. Compared to people of normal weight, fat people feel more excited when they see delicious food.(如果我们经常吃美味的食物，随着时间的推移，我们的大脑会发生变化。与体重正常的人相比，肥胖的人在看到美味的食物时会感到更加兴奋。)”可知，下文具体说明了人们的大脑在遇到美味的食物时会兴奋。G项中的“the tastier the food”与下文中“delicious food”对应，“the more excited”与下文中“feel more excited”对应。G项：Scientists found that the tastier the food, the more excited our brains get.(科学家们发现，食物越美味，我们的大脑就越兴奋。)符合语境。故选G。 【19题详解】 空处为段落主题句。根据下文“Ghrelin or hunger hormones (激素) , for example, tells the brain that the body wants food. Leptin (瘦素) , meanwhile, tells the brain that it’s time to stop eating.(例如，胃饥饿素或称饥饿激素会告诉大脑身体需要食物。而与此同时，瘦素会告诉大脑是时候停止进食了。)”可知，下文提到了两种激素，它们都与饥饿感有关，因此可以推断出前文应该提到与饥饿感相关的激素。D项：Also, various hormones tell our brains whether we are hungry.(此外，各种激素告诉我们的大脑我们是否饿了。)符合语境。故选D。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Leptin (瘦素) , meanwhile, tells the brain that it’s time to stop eating.(而与此同时，瘦素会告诉大脑是时候停止进食了。)”和“When we start to lose weight, leptin levels drop.(当我们开始减肥时，瘦素水平会下降。)”可知，瘦素是一种告诉大脑停止进食的激素，当它的水平下降时，大脑会认为我们还在饥饿状态，从而让我们继续寻找食物C项：Our brains think we are hungry and make us find food.(我们的大脑认为我们饿了，让我们去找食物。)符合语境。故选C。 第三部分 语言运用（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, 从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As a child, I loved drawing on our walls.

They had everything from Picasso to Raphael. They would sit together and admire the great works of art. When the Vietnam War broke out, the son went to war. He was very resilient and courageous, and died in battle while rescuing another soldier. The father was told the sad news and in deep sorrow for his only son. About a month later, just before Christmas, there was a knock at the door. A young man stood there with a large package in his hands. He said, “Sir, you don’t know me, but I am the soldier for whom your son gave his life. He saved many lives that day, and he was carrying me to safety when a bullet struck him in the heart, and he died instantly. He often talked about you and your love for art.” The young man held out his package. “I know this isn’t much. I’m not really a great artist, but I think your son would have wanted you to have this.” The father opened the package. It was a portrait of his son, painted by the young man. He was amazed at the way the soldier had caught the personality of his son in the painting. The father was so drawn to the eyes that welled up in tears his own eyes. He thanked the young man and offered to pay him for the picture. “Oh no, sir, I could never repay what your son did for me. It’s a gift.” The father hung the portrait on the wall of the sitting room. Every time visitors came to his home, he took them to see the portrait of his son before he showed them any of the other great works he had collected. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: The father died a few months later and his lawyer organized a great auction of his paintings according to his will. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: But to everyone’s surprise, the lawyer announced the auction was over! ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Paragraph 1: The father died a few months later and his lawyer organized a great auction of his paintings according to his will. On the day of the auction, many influential people gathered in the sitting room of the father’s house, excited about having an opportunity to see the famous works. “We will start with this picture of the son. Who wants this one?” Silence filled the room and puzzlement was written all over everyone’s face. Against all the master pieces lining along the wall, the painting appeared extremely plain. Silence continued for two minutes and was then broken by a voice from the back of the room, “I’ll pay 500 dollars. That’s all I have.” Obviously, it would be the only bid for a painting that was not from a great artist. The auction was expected to go on. Paragraph 2: But to everyone’s surprise, the lawyer announced the auction was over! The lawyer added, “I’m sorry. The will said whoever bought the painting of the son would get all the other paintings as a gift.” Hearing these words, all the other people in the room burst into an uproar, except the man who got all the fortune.

B Diana was out shopping in a busy department store after work one evening. Just five minutes before closing time, she heard a staff member saying, “someone is having a seizure (癫痫)”: Walking quickly towards the staff member, Diana saw a fellow shopper on the ground. She had fallen and was lying on the floor, jerking uncontrollably. A small group of people had gathered to help the woman and a staff member called an ambulance. Dian a knew that she could use what she had learned on her first aid course to help as well. Knowing it was important to keep the woman safe, one of the employees brought over a staff jacket and they put it under the woman’s head so she wouldn’t injure herself. “The seizure probably lasted only a few minutes, but it seemed much longer while it was going on,” Diana said. “When the jerking stopped, a man helped turn the woman on to her side. I then tilted her head back to help her keep breathing. After the seizure, the woman seemed not to be able to understand what we were saying and couldn’t speak. Luckily, I had learned that this can happen after a seizure and it may take some time for people to get back to normal.” “It was such a comfort when she very tentatively answered that she was OK. By this time, the ambulance was on its way, the store had closed for the night and the other shoppers who had helped at first had left.” “We all a-greed that the woman was in safe hands with the first aider and a nurse who had also stopped to help, so I started to make my way out of the store.” “As I was leaving, one of the store’s employees said, ‘thank you for your kindness’”. “I was very touched by her words, and I told her that I’d learned first aid in case something like this ever happened, and now it had. Even though the incident left me feeling very shaken, I was glad I knew what to do to help.” 4. What did Diana do to help the woman suffering from a seizure? A. She called an ambulance for her. B. She helped turn the woman to one side. C. She brought over a staff jacket to keep her warm. D. She made sure the woman could breathe easily. 5. How did Diana feel after the incident? A. Grateful. B.

Which proverb can be applied to Diana’s actions in this situation? A. Actions speak louder than words. B. Constant dropping water wears the stone. C. A friend in need is a friend indeed. D. Where there is a will, there is a way. C A robot created at Stanford University in California is diving down to shipwrecks (沉船) and sunken planes in a way that humans can’t do. Known as OceanOneK, the robot allows its operators to feel like they’re underwater explorers, too. OceanOneK resembles a human diver from the front, with arms and hands and eyes that have 3D vision, capturing the underwater world in full color. The back of the robot has computers and eight multidirectional thrusters that help it carefully explore the sites of fragile sunken ships. When an operator at the ocean’s surface uses controls to direct OceanOneK, the robot’s touch-based feedback system causes the person to feel the water’s resistance as well as the forms of artifacts (人工制品). OceanOneK’s realistic sight and touch capabilities are enough to make people feel like they’re diving down to the depths-without the dangers or immense underwater pressure a human diver would experience. The idea for OceanOneK came from a desire to study coral reefs in the Red Sea at depths beyond the normal range for divers. While OceanOneK was designed to reach maximum depths of 656 feet, researchers had a new goal: 1 kilometer, hence the new name for OceanOneK. The researchers changed the robot’s body by using special foam to increase buoyancy (浮力) and fight the pressures of 1, 000 meters-more than 100 times what humans experience at sea level. OceanOneK also got two new types of hands and increased arm and head motion. During OceanOneK’s deep dive in February, team members discovered the robot couldn’t rise when they stopped for a thruster cheek. Flotations on the communications and power line had collapsed, causing the line to pile on the top of the robot. They were able to pull in the slack, and OceanOneK’s descent was a success. It dropped off a memorial marker on the seabed that reads, “A robot’s first touch of the deep seafloor A vast new world for humans to explore. ” Khatib, a professor, called the experience an “incredible journey”. “This is the first time that a robot has been capable of going to such a depth, interacting with the environment and permitting the human operator to feel that environment. ” he said. 8. What do we know about OceanOneK? A. It has colorful eyes. B. It is remotely controlled. C. It is like a human all over. D. It explores underwater world itself. 9. What is the original idea for OceanOneK? A. To find out the mystery of the ocean. B. To save passengers from sunken planes. C. To collect treasures from shipwrecks. D. To research coral reefs in deep oceans. 10. What is wrong with OceanOneK in February? A. It failed to rise normally. B. It lost touch with the operators. C. It collapsed and piled at the seafloor. D. It floated away with sea currents. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Robots help people become ocean explorers. B. Robots explore shipwrecks on the ocean bottom. C. Robots search the ocean floor for sunken treasures. D. Robots dive into the deep ocean to locate minerals. D Have you felt annoyed when a cellphone rings during the class? Something must be done to stop this. Now in New York City, USA, a rule is carried out in schools. Students can’ t even bring cellphones to school. Is it a good thing or not? Anxious parents say that cellphones are an important tool in holding New York city’s families together. “I worry about it,” said Elizabeth Lorris Ritter, a mother of a middle school kid. It’s necessary in our everyday life. We have a washing machine. We have running water, and We have cellphones.” Many American parents think cellphones connect them to their children on buses, getting out from subways, walking through unknown places. “I have her call me when she gets out of school,” said Lindsay Walt, a schoolgirl’s mother. “No one in New York is going to let their child go to school without a cellphone” What about the cellphone owners, the students? Most of the students said cellphones were essential and the cellphone was like all extra (额外的) hand or foot for them. “I feel so empty,” said May Chom, “There is also no way to listen to music on the way to school without my phone.

This seems like a simple enough question to answer. ___16___ However, the science behind weight problems is more complicated than we think. As we know, what we eat greatly affects our weight. It is widely accepted that people have 100% control over what they eat and how much they eat. This, however, is only partly true People form habits around food at a young age. ___17___ Meanwhile, the serving size and the background music can both affect how much we eat. Our bodies themselves can decide whether we are more likely to gain weight or lose weight. ___18___ If we often have delicious food over time, our brains will change. Compared to people of normal weight, fat people feel more excited when they see delicious food. ___19___ Ghrelin or hunger hormones (激素) , for example, tells the brain that the body wants food. Leptin (瘦素) , meanwhile, tells the brain that it’s time to stop eating. Ghrelin and leptin help us to maintain a healthy weight. But sometimes, they may work improperly. As we get fatter, the levels of leptin in our bodies rise. Our brains are told not to eat all the time. In the end, they would no longer trust leptin and would stop responding to its “warnings”. When we start to lose weight, leptin levels drop. ___20___ Now you know why fat people often have a tough time losing weight. They may have tried very hard, but their bodies are working against their will. A. Our brains change as we have food. B. If we eat a lot and lack exercise, we will become fat. C. Our brains think we are hungry and make us find food. D. Also, various hormones tell our brains whether we are hungry. E. They may rarely touch vegetables while overeating fried chicken. F. Additionally, our weight determines the levels of ghrelin and leptin. G. Scientists found that the tastier the food, the more excited our brains get. 第三部分 语言运用（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, 从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As a child, I loved drawing on our walls.
