While my children were still young, I started illustrating books for a group. Once my kids got older, I decided to take the leap and work at starting my own business. I decided to focus on fine art paintings. Sad to say, it took me almost two years to have the courage to present my work to a gallery. When I finally did it, the gallery immediately started selling my work and I soon drove to the state office to do the necessary paperwork for a business. I didn’t understand how an artist could run his own business and there weren’t many resources to help people like me get started at the time. All I could find were a handful of books. So, to get my business off the ground I went to galleries, looked through them, and asked myself, “Am I a good fit for this place?” If they were interested in my work, I would share my paintings with them. When I started showing my work in galleries, I was initially very frightened. There were some amazing artists that I put on a pedestal (奉为完人). I felt I could never attain the position. I eventually became friends with one of the top artists at the first local gallery I got into. I remember visiting with him one day and a comment he made impacted me. As we were talking about showing our works, meeting buyers, and the prices of our art, he said to me, “I can’t even afford my own art.” He laughed it off but it made me think to myself he was just a regular guy and I was not so different. This gave me the confidence I needed to keep on trying, and suddenly everything seemed a lot less frightening. Since that time, I’ve had many galleries representing me. I wear so many hats running my business, and not all are the perfect fit, but that’s okay! 24 How did the author feel after her first show according to paragraph 2? A. Encouraged. B. Doubtful. C. Confused. D. Awkward. 25. What challenge did the author face while she was trying to start a business? A. She couldn’t get the necessary paperwork. B. She was far from an amazing artist. C. She had little time for her children. D. She was clueless about that. 26. How did the top artist’s words affect the author? A. She gained a sense of achievement. B. She believed that she would do well. C. She tackled problems efficiently. D. She learned new drawing skills. 27. What is the best title for the text? A. How I became a famous artist. B. Why galleries are important to me. C. How I started my business as an artist. D. Why I decided to start a business. C German businesses are increasingly turning to robots to fill jobs as the country faces a severe labor shortage. The situation left about 1.7 million jobs unfilled across Germany in June, official data showed. The country’s Chambers of Commerce and Industry has estimated that half of German businesses are currently struggling to fill positions. Germany is Europe’s largest economy. One of the country’s biggest labor issues is the large number of people retiring from the so-called Baby Boomer generation. The nation’s birth rate has also been going down for years. Economic experts say it is difficult to substitute for these retiring workers. Many younger workers do not want to take jobs seen as dirty and harmful to their health. The job shortage situation is currently reducing growth in Germany by about $109 billion a year, official estimates suggest. The Federal Employment Agency predicts the number of available workers will shrink by 7 million people by 2035. The problem is affecting large, medium and small businesses across the country. Some have decided to replace retiring workers with robotic systems. “With similar issues affecting other developed economies, robotic and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies will continue to expand,” said Nela Richardson. She is the chief economist at financial provider ADP. “In the long term, all those innovations are a game-changer for the world of work. Everybody will do their job differently,” Richardson told Reuters. Heavy investment in automation by carmakers and other major industrial companies has made Germany the world’s fourth-largest market for robots — the largest in Europe. But as robots become less costly and easier to operate, even smaller companies are also using them. “Robots enable the survival of companies that see their future at risk due to staff shortages,” said Ralf Winkelmann, director of FANUC Germany. Even workers and trade unions, which in the past were fearful of job losses linked to robots, have taken an increasingly favorable position. A public opinion study published in June by a robots marketplace organization found that nearly half of German employees saw robots as a help to the labor shortage. 28. What do we know about the German economy? A German businesses are experiencing their hardest time. B. Several factors contribute to the severe labor shortage. C. It is suffering from the lack of labor force. D. It has achieved a steady growth recently. 29. What does the underlined part “substitute for” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Award. B. Find. C. Pay. D. Replace. 30. What does Nela Richardson think of the future of robots for work? A. It is quite hopeless. B. It is promising. C. It is well planned. D. It is uncertain. 31. What did the public opinion study suggest? A. About half of German workers welcomed the adoption of robots. B. Robots were the solution to Germany’s labor shortage. C. German workers were concerned about their future. D. Trade unions feared losing their jobs. D Water, the source of life, is becoming increasingly scarce (不足的) as the world’s population grows and climate change intensifies. According to the United Nations, 2.3 billion people — more than one in four — live in a water-stressed country. And 4 billion people face severe water scarcity for at least one month a year. In Europe, where global warming is already causing more frequent and severe droughts, scientists and businesses are developing new methods to generate fresh water from the air as well as the sea. The push is also driven by pollutants in underground water and the environmental cost of bottled water. GENAQ is a Spanish company that makes devices known as atmospheric water generators. By condensing (冷凝) humidity (湿度) in the air into usable water, such generators can help create much-needed supplies. While GENAQ has been developing atmospheric water generators since 2008 and has customers in 60 countries, so far it has served mainly emergency services and industrial users. Recently, the company developed a version designed for people at home. These new generators can be attached to houses and create fresh water for their residents. GENAQ wants to sell three versions of the product, ranging in amount from 20 litres a day to 200 litres and in size, from a small kitchen appliance to a version that looks like an office water cooler. Anticipated prices range from €2,500 for the smallest version to €14,500 for the biggest. The device takes air and filters (过滤) it, ensuring there are no pollutants. First, air is cooled to a point where water condenses. Then the water is strictly filtered, minerals are added, and ultraviolet light (紫外线) is used to prevent bacteria forming. GENAQ has found a way to greatly cut the amount of energy used in the process — 150% less — and the average cost of portable water fell by more than 80%. GENAQ is now aiming to supply everyday families with atmospheric water generators. In the coming months, it plans to expand in European countries such as Spain, France and Germany where bottled-water consumption is high. A following step is to break into the worldwide consumer market. 32 What does the author want to show in paragraph 1? A. Water shortages will be the world’s biggest problem. B. Climate change contributes to the water shortages. C. Water is of great importance to life. D. Water problem is getting worse. 33. What do we know about the generators of GENAQ? A. They can provide residents with water relief in daily life. B. They are used to purify fresh water for residents. C. They remove pollutants in underground water. D. They produce water from the sea. 34. What does GENAQ expect to do? A. Save the bottled-water business. B. Supply the whole world with household water generators. C. Supply high quality water. D. Solve the water problem in the world. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Can we generate water from the air? B. How do we live with water generators? C. Atmospheric water generators. D. The future of water use worldwide. 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。 Whether you’re an experienced dog handler or a little careful about dogs, it can be difficult to read a dog’s complex language.

While my children were still young, I started illustrating books for a group. Once my kids got older, I decided to take the leap and work at starting my own business. I decided to focus on fine art paintings. Sad to say, it took me almost two years to have the courage to present my work to a gallery. When I finally did it, the gallery immediately started selling my work and I soon drove to the state office to do the necessary paperwork for a business. I didn’t understand how an artist could run his own business and there weren’t many resources to help people like me get started at the time. All I could find were a handful of books. So, to get my business off the ground I went to galleries, looked through them, and asked myself, “Am I a good fit for this place?” If they were interested in my work, I would share my paintings with them. When I started showing my work in galleries, I was initially very frightened. There were some amazing artists that I put on a pedestal (奉为完人). I felt I could never attain the position. I eventually became friends with one of the top artists at the first local gallery I got into. I remember visiting with him one day and a comment he made impacted me. As we were talking about showing our works, meeting buyers, and the prices of our art, he said to me, “I can’t even afford my own art.” He laughed it off but it made me think to myself he was just a regular guy and I was not so different. This gave me the confidence I needed to keep on trying, and suddenly everything seemed a lot less frightening. Since that time, I’ve had many galleries representing me. I wear so many hats running my business, and not all are the perfect fit, but that’s okay! 24. How did the author feel after her first show according to paragraph 2? A. Encouraged. B. Doubtful. C. Confused. D. Awkward. 25. What challenge did the author face while she was trying to start a business? A. She couldn’t get the necessary paperwork. B. She was far from an amazing artist. C.

Why galleries are important to me. C. How I started my business as an artist. D. Why I decided to start a business. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述作者喜欢画画，并最终把这个爱好变成了自己的事业。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“Sad to say, it took me almost two years to have the courage to present my work to a gallery. When I finally did it, the gallery immediately started selling my work and I soon drove to the state office to do the necessary paperwork for a business. (遗憾的是，我花了将近两年的时间才鼓起勇气在画廊展示我的作品。当我最终完成后，画廊立即开始出售我的作品，我很快就开车去州政府办公室做必要的文书工作。)”可推断，作者受到了很大的鼓舞。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“I didn’t understand how an artist could run his own business and there weren’t many resources to help people like me get started at the time. All I could find were a handful of books. (我不明白一个艺术家怎么能经营自己的生意，而且当时也没有很多资源可以帮助像我这样的人开始创业。我只能找到几本书。)”可知，作者在尝试创业时，一头雾水，不知从何下手。故选D。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“I eventually became friends with one of the top artists at the first local gallery I got into. I remember visiting with him one day and a comment he made impacted me. As we were talking about showing our works, meeting buyers, and the prices of our art, he said to me, “I can’t even afford my own art.” He laughed it off but it made me think to myself he was just a regular guy and I was not so different. This gave me the confidence I needed to keep on trying, and suddenly everything seemed a lot less frightening. (在我进入的第一家当地画廊里，我最终和一位顶级艺术家成为了朋友。我记得有一天去拜访他，他的一句话影响了我。当我们谈论展示我们的作品，会见买家，以及我们艺术作品的价格时，他对我说，“我甚至买不起自己的艺术作品。”他一笑置之，但这让我觉得他只是一个普通人，我也没有什么不同。这给了我继续尝试所需要的信心，突然之间，一切似乎都不那么可怕了。)”可知，那位艺术家的话让作者意识到她与那些令她钦佩的艺术家并没有什么不同。作者相信自己能做好。故选B。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其第一段“I loved drawing pictures. While my children were still young, I started illustrating books for a group. Once my kids got older, I decided to take the leap and work at starting my own business. I decided to focus on fine art paintings. (我喜欢画画。当我的孩子还小的时候，我开始为一个小组画插图。当我的孩子长大后，我决定迈出第一步，开始自己的事业。我决定专注于美术绘画。)”可知，作者在文中主要讲述了自己如何将绘画爱好转变成自己的事业的经历。故选C。 C German businesses are increasingly turning to robots to fill jobs as the country faces a severe labor shortage. The situation left about 1.7 million jobs unfilled across Germany in June, official data showed. The country’s Chambers of Commerce and Industry has estimated that half of German businesses are currently struggling to fill positions. Germany is Europe’s largest economy. One of the country’s biggest labor issues is the large number of people retiring from the so-called Baby Boomer generation. The nation’s birth rate has also been going down for years. Economic experts say it is difficult to substitute for these retiring workers. Many younger workers do not want to take jobs seen as dirty and harmful to their health. The job shortage situation is currently reducing growth in Germany by about $109 billion a year, official estimates suggest. The Federal Employment Agency predicts the number of available workers will shrink by 7 million people by 2035. The problem is affecting large, medium and small businesses across the country. Some have decided to replace retiring workers with robotic systems. “With similar issues affecting other developed economies, robotic and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies will continue to expand,” said Nela Richardson. She is the chief economist at financial provider ADP. “In the long term, all those innovations are a game-changer for the world of work. Everybody will do their job differently,” Richardson told Reuters. Heavy investment in automation by carmakers and other major industrial companies has made Germany the world’s fourth-largest market for robots — the largest in Europe. But as robots become less costly and easier to operate, even smaller companies are also using them. “Robots enable the survival of companies that see their future at risk due to staff shortages,” said Ralf Winkelmann, director of FANUC Germany. Even workers and trade unions, which in the past were fearful of job losses linked to robots, have taken an increasingly favorable position. A public opinion study published in June by a robots marketplace organization found that nearly half of German employees saw robots as a help to the labor shortage. 28. What do we know about the German economy? A. German businesses are experiencing their hardest time. B. Several factors contribute to the severe labor shortage. C. It is suffering from the lack of labor force. D. It has achieved a steady growth recently. 29. What does the underlined part “substitute for” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Award. B. Find. C. Pay. D. Replace. 30. What does Nela Richardson think of the future of robots for work? A. It is quite hopeless. B. It is promising. C. It is well planned. D. It is uncertain. 31. What did the public opinion study suggest? A. About half of German workers welcomed the adoption of robots. B. Robots were the solution to Germany’s labor shortage. C. German workers were concerned about their future. D. Trade unions feared losing their jobs. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了由于德国面临严重的劳动力短缺问题，越来越多的德国企业使用机器人来填补职位空缺。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The country’s Chambers of Commerce and Industry has estimated that half of German businesses are currently struggling to fill positions.(德国工商会估计，目前有一半的德国企业难以填补职位空缺)”以及第三段中“The job shortage situation is currently reducing growth in Germany by about $109 billion a year, official estimates suggest.(据官方估计，目前德国的就业短缺状况每年使经济增长减少约1090亿美元。)”可知，德国面临严重的劳动力短缺问题，德国经济正遭受劳动力短缺的困扰。故选C。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词后文“The nation’s birth rate has also been going down for years(该国的出生率多年来也一直在下降)”和“Many younger workers do not want to take jobs seen as dirty and harmful to their health(许多年轻工人不愿从事被视为肮脏和有害健康的工作)”可知，德国的出生率一直在下降，且许多年轻工人不愿从事脏活和有害健康的工作；由此可知，“Economic experts say it is difficult to substitute for these retiring workers.(经济专家说，很难找到substitute for这些退休工人的人。)”指的是经济专家说很难代替这些即将退休的工人。划线短语substitute for意思是“代替，取代”。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中““With similar issues affecting other developed economies, robotic and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies will continue to expand,” said Nela Richardson. She is the chief economist at financial provider ADP. “In the long term, all those innovations are a game-changer for the world of work. Everybody will do their job differently,” Richardson told Reuters.(内拉·理查森说：‘随着其他发达经济体也出现类似问题，机器人和人工智能技术将继续发展。’她是金融服务提供商ADP的首席经济学家。‘从长远来看，所有这些创新都将改变工作领域的游戏规则。每个人的工作方式都会不同。’理查森对路透表示。)”可知，Nela Richardson认为工作机器人的未来是有发展前景的，机器人会深刻改变工作的方式。故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“A public opinion study published in June by a robots marketplace organization found that nearly half of German employees saw robots as a help to the labor shortage.(一家机器人市场组织6月份发布的一项民意调查发现，近一半的德国员工认为机器人有助于解决劳动力短缺问题)”可知，近一半的德国员工认为机器人有助于解决劳动力短缺问题，他们欢迎采用机器人。故选A。 D Water, the source of life, is becoming increasingly scarce (不足的) as the world’s population grows and climate change intensifies. According to the United Nations, 2.3 billion people — more than one in four — live in a water-stressed country. And 4 billion people face severe water scarcity for at least one month a year. In Europe, where global warming is already causing more frequent and severe droughts, scientists and businesses are developing new methods to generate fresh water from the air as well as the sea. The push is also driven by pollutants in underground water and the environmental cost of bottled water. GENAQ is a Spanish company that makes devices known as atmospheric water generators. By condensing (冷凝) humidity (湿度) in the air into usable water, such generators can help create much-needed supplies. While GENAQ has been developing atmospheric water generators since 2008 and has customers in 60 countries, so far it has served mainly emergency services and industrial users. Recently, the company developed a version designed for people at home. These new generators can be attached to houses and create fresh water for their residents. GENAQ wants to sell three versions of the product, ranging in amount from 20 litres a day to 200 litres and in size, from a small kitchen appliance to a version that looks like an office water cooler. Anticipated prices range from €2,500 for the smallest version to €14,500 for the biggest. The device takes air and filters (过滤) it, ensuring there are no pollutants. First, air is cooled to a point where water condenses. Then the water is strictly filtered, minerals are added, and ultraviolet light (紫外线) is used to prevent bacteria forming. GENAQ has found a way to greatly cut the amount of energy used in the process — 150% less — and the average cost of portable water fell by more than 80%. GENAQ is now aiming to supply everyday families with atmospheric water generators. In the coming months, it plans to expand in European countries such as Spain, France and Germany where bottled-water consumption is high. A following step is to break into the worldwide consumer market. 32. What does the author want to show in paragraph 1? A. Water shortages will be the world’s biggest problem. B. Climate change contributes to the water shortages. C. Water is of great importance to life. D. Water problem is getting worse. 33. What do we know about the generators of GENAQ? A. They can provide residents with water relief in daily life. B. They are used to purify fresh water for residents. C. They remove pollutants in underground water. D. They produce water from the sea. 34. What does GENAQ expect to do? A. Save the bottled-water business. B. Supply the whole world with household water generators. C. Supply high quality water. D. Solve the water problem in the world. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Can we generate water from the air? B. How do we live with water generators? C. Atmospheric water generators. D. The future of water use worldwide. 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一家西班牙公司GENAQ研发的设备，该设备从空气中摄取水分并对其进行过滤，可用于紧急服务、工业用水和日常生活。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“According to the United Nations, 2.3 billion people — more than one in four — live in a water-stressed country. And 4 billion people face severe water scarcity for at least one month a year.(根据联合国的数据，23亿人——超过四分之一——生活在缺水的国家。40亿人每年至少有一个月面临严重缺水)”可知，作者在第一段想要表达的是水问题越来越严重。故选D。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“While GENAQ has been developing atmospheric water generators since 2008 and has customers in 60 countries, so far it has served mainly emergency services and industrial users. Recently, the company developed a version designed for people at home.(虽然GENAQ自2008年以来一直在开发大气水发生器，并在60个国家拥有客户，但到目前为止，它主要服务于应急服务和工业用户。最近，该公司开发了一个专为家庭用户设计的版本)”可知，这个设备现在可以解决日常生活用水的问题。故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“GENAQ is now aiming to supply everyday families with atmospheric water generators. In the coming months, it plans to expand in European countries such as Spain, France and Germany where bottled-water consumption is high. A following step is to break into the worldwide consumer market.(GENAQ现在的目标是为普通家庭提供大气水发生器。未来几个月，该公司计划在西班牙、法国和德国等瓶装水消费量较高的欧洲国家扩张。下一步是打入全球消费市场)”可知，GENAQ有望向全世界提供家庭用水机。故选B。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“GENAQ is a Spanish company that makes devices known as atmospheric water generators. By condensing (冷凝) humidity (湿度) in the air into usable water, such generators can help create much-needed supplies.(GENAQ是一家生产大气水制水器的西班牙公司。通过将空气中的湿度冷凝成可用的水，这种制水机可以帮助制造急需的物资)”结合本文主要介绍了一家西班牙公司GENAQ研发的设备可以利用空气中的水分制水。C选项“大气水制水器”最符合文章标题。故选C。 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。 Whether you’re an experienced dog handler or a little careful about dogs, it can be difficult to read a dog’s complex language.

Mary’s dad asked them to reach there by themselves on the public bus. Mary and Jane had a 5:00 appointment (预约). Their dad couldn’t go with them because he worked until 6:00 pm. Their dad told Mary to wait outside the school at 4:30 pm for Jane so they could take the bus to the beauty salon together. Then he would pick them up at the salon after he got off work. Mary was nervous, thinking, “What if someone tries to follow us? What if we miss the stop? I have never ridden the bus without my dad before.” Her dad took a look at her and said, “You’ll be just fine. Listen to your sister and help her look out for your stop.” Then he gave Jane some money and went off to work. All day at school, Mary kept looking at the clock, afraid of the end of the school day. On the other hand, Mary’s dad was also nervous. The whole time in his office he kept looking at the clock, thinking about his daughters. He actually left work at 4:00 pm that day. But after reaching Mary’s school, he considered it a good chance for them to overcome fear in life. He decided to stay in his car to see whether his girls could get on the bus safely. When it was 4:30 pm, Mary went to the school gate and waited for Jane. Jane got there in a few minutes, and they walked quietly to the bus stop. A few high school teenagers and a woman stood at the bus stop. Jane asked the woman if the bus stopping there was the Number 2 heading toward Clinton Street. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 The woman nodded her head and said with a smile, “Yes.” ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After getting off the bus, Jane took Mary’s hand and led her across the busy street to the beauty salon. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The woman nodded her head and said with a smile, “Yes.” Mary could tell that Jane relaxed a little and they boarded the bus. They stood all the way so that they could look out of the windows for their Clinton Street stop. Their father followed the bus to make sure the girls got off at the right stop. When they were almost there, the woman who spoke to Jane earlier tapped her on the shoulder and told her that their stop was next. They thanked the woman. After getting off the bus, Jane took Mary’s hand and led her across the busy street to the beauty salon. Their dad arrived shortly after they sat down. He said he was proud of them and that he wanted to teach them a lesson — life isn’t lived without fear; instead, it’s the fear that pushes a person to be strong. Hearing that, Mary and Jane smiled back. They sat in the salon’s chairs and forgot how nervous they had been — especially Mary. They both grew more confident and daring. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Mary和Jane的父亲为了克服她们对生活的恐惧，一天他要求Mary去校门口等Jane，然后两人结伴坐公交车去美容院，而他偷偷跟着她们确保她们的安全，最终Mary和Jane成功到达美容院，克服了对生活的恐惧。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“女人点了点头，笑着说：“是的。””可知，第一段可描写Mary和Jane去美容院途中的情况。 ②由第二段首句内容“下车后，简拉着玛丽的手，领她穿过繁忙的街道去美容院。”可知，第二段可描写她们成功到达美容院，父亲为她们感到骄傲，她们成功克服了对生活的恐惧。 2. 续写线索：父亲要求Mary和Jane结伴去美容院——Mary感到担心——认真的按照父亲的吩咐做——Mary和Jane成功到达美容院——克服了对生活的恐惧， 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①上车：board/get on ②到达：arrive/reach ③变得：grow/become 情绪类 ①恐惧：fear/scare ②紧张：nervous/anxious 【点睛】[高分句型1] They stood all the way so that they could look out of the windows for their Clinton Street stop.(so that引导的目的状语从句) [高分句型2] He said he was proud of them and that he wanted to teach them a lesson — life isn’t lived without fear; instead, it’s the fear that pushes a person to be strong.(it is+强调部分 that的强调句型) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
