On her last day as a teacher, she was expecting a small celebratory meal with her close family. But instead, she gets a huge surprise! She opens the door to a surprise that brings tears of joy. The room is packed with 40 guests, including her family, friends, and the people she worked with. Nancy Jenkins has been teaching for 42 years, spending 37 of those years in special education at Winter Park Elementary School in Wilmington. In spite of the challenges, her love for her students never changed. She used many creative and interesting activities to help her students learn. She says these activities are some of the ones that she and her students enjoyed most. She also worked closely with parents, caregivers, and other professionals to create a supportive environment for the children, maximizing (使……最大化) the potential (潜力) for success and well-being for each child under her care. Nancy’s daughter, Maggie Marsh, highlighted (突出) her mom’s kindness and positivity. “She is known as someone who would not only help a coworker or student in time of need, but she would also make them laugh or smile.” Inspired by Nancy’s devotion, (奉献) Maggie organized the celebration not only for her mom’s retirement but also to honor her career as an educator. “After 42 years of selflessly putting others before herself and stepping in to help whenever necessary, my mom was more than deserving of this celebration, and she is more than deserving of this retirement,” says Maggie. For Nancy, she was just doing what she loved. “I love teaching and it’s never boring,” she says. “Every day is different.” After her retirement, Nancy Jenkins will offer her help to children in need any time.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了一位名叫Nancy Jenkins的68岁教师在退休时收到惊喜，以及她长达42年的教学生涯和对教育的热爱。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Nancy Jenkins is a 68-year-old teacher from North Carolina.(Nancy Jenkins是来自北卡罗来纳州的一位68岁的教师)”和第二段“Nancy Jenkins has been teaching for 42 years.(Nancy Jenkins已经教书42年了)”可知，她大约26岁开始教书。故选A。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段第一句“Nancy’s daughter, Maggie Marsh, highlighted (突出) her mom’s kindness and positivity.(Nancy的女儿Maggie Marsh强调了母亲的善良和积极)”和第三段第三句“Inspired by Nancy’s devotion, Maggie organized the celebration not only for her mom’s retirement but also to honor her career as an educator.(受到Nancy奉献精神的启发，Maggie组织这次庆祝活动不仅是为了她妈妈的退休，也是为了表彰她作为教育者的职业生涯)”可知，第三段主要是讲Maggie为什么为她妈妈组织这次庆祝活动。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Nancy says people who want to be teachers should make sure they are patient with their students.(Nancy说，想当老师的人一定要确保对学生有耐心)”和“Keep working on what you love to do in life.(坚持做你生活中喜欢做的事情)”可知，Nancy认为老师要有耐心并鼓励人们对自己热爱的事情保持激情。由此推知，Nancy认为一个老师应该具备耐心和激情。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了一位名叫Nancy Jenkins的68岁教师在退休时收到惊喜，以及她长达42年的教学生涯和对教育的热爱。由此可推知，这篇文章最可能是一篇关于退休教师的专题报道。故选B。 C Educators and experts worldwide are urging (督促) parents to take action to prevent children from being addicted (沉溺于) to the Internet. Even kids admit to feeling better without electronic (电子的) devices, such as pads and cellphones, and say they wish adults would do more to help them learn and grow without wasting too much time online. So where does this all leave us? What’s a responsible parent to do? When it comes to kids and screens, there’s a big difference between children spending hours online without parental controls and children interacting with carefully selected content (内容) for 20 minutes at a time with a parent. Luckily, there's also a lot of in-between. Many parental control apps are designed to create safer online spaces for kids. It’s too early to say which helps most, but the most essential feature of any set of parental controls is the ability to use them to help kids grow and learn. Take Angel AI for example. Angel AT is an app expected out this fall that allows kids to explore the Internet while holding the digital hand of an AI built specifically to keep them out of harm's way. Angel understands age-proper content and sensitive (敏感的) topics that are best handled by an adult. The content Angel looks at or creates is secured and no searches are linked to any personal information. “We’re not in the business of taking the Internet away from kids; as any parent can prove, kids want what they can’t have, ” Tim Estes, CEO of Angel Al, writes via email. “The online world also can be an incredibly valuable resource for kids, who risk missing out on key learning opportunities, as well as the chance to build healthy online habits, if they don’t explore the Internet earlier on in life.” Parental control apps, as a tool we can actually use for good, can be a sort of protective bubble for kids as they surf the Internet. 8. What does the underlined word “in-between” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Time spent on the Internet by kids. B. Technology for managing kids’ screen time. C. Content suitable for children to select. D. Advice on saving kids from the Internet. 9. How does the author describe parental control apps? A. By making a prediction and suggesting solutions. B. By bringing up a question and presenting the answers. C. By comparing different apps and listing their advantages D. By giving an example and explaining how it works. 10. What’s the attitude of Tim Estes towards the Internet? A. Fearful. B. Disapproving. C. Supportive. D. Uncertain. 11. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To encourage parents to help their kids grow. B. To call for the development of online learning. C. To warn parents to keep kids away from the Internet. D. To introduce a new way to guide children’s Internet use. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕家长如何防止孩子沉迷网络这一问题展开，介绍了家长控制类应用程序这一工具，通过举例AngelAI说明了这类应用的作用和工作原理，强调其可以作为一种保护孩子上网的方式，目的是向家长介绍一种引导孩子合理使用互联网的新方法。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题，根据划线词上文“When it comes to kids and screens, there's a big difference between children spending hours online without parental controls and children interacting with carefully selected content for 20 minutes at a time with a parent.(当谈到孩子和屏幕时，孩子在没有家长控制的情况下花几个小时上网，与孩子在家长陪同下一次花20分钟与精心挑选的内容互动之间有很大的区别)”可知，孩子们在没有家长控制的情况下花费数小时上网与在家长陪同下与精心挑选的内容互动20分钟之间有很大区别，结合划线词所在的句子“Luckily, there’s also a lot of in-between,(幸运的是，也有很多……)”和下文的“Many parental control apps are designed to create safer online spaces for kids.(许多家长控制应用程序旨在为孩子们创造更安全的在线空间。)”可知，划线单词in-between是指管理孩子屏幕时间的技术。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题，根据第三段中“Take Angel Al for example. Angel A is an app expected out this fall that allows kids to explore the Internet while holding the digital hand of an Al built specifically to keep them out of harm's way. Angel understands age-proper content and sensitive topics that are best handled by an adult, The content Angel looks at or creates is secured and no searches are linked to any personal information.(以AngeLAI为例。AngelAI是一款预计今年秋季推出的应用程序，它允许孩子们在探索互联网时握住一个专门为保护他们免受伤害而构建的人工智能的数字之手。Angel理解适合年龄的内容和最好由成年人处理的敏感话题。Angel查看或创建的内容是安全的，并且没有任何搜索与个人信息相关联)”可推知，作者是通过AngelA1为例，解释其工作原理来描述家长控制类应用程序。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“ “We’re not in the business of taking the Internet away from kids; as any parent can prove, kids want what they can’t have,” Tim Estes, CEO of Angel Al, writes via email. “The online world also can be an incredibly valuable resource for kids, who risk missing out on key learning opportunities, as well as the chance to build healthy online habits, if they don’t explore the Internet earlier on in life.”(“我们不是要把互联网从孩子们手中夺走；任何一位家长都可以证明，孩子们想要他们得不到的东西。”Angel AI的首席执行官蒂姆·埃斯蒂斯在电子邮件中写道。“对孩子们来说，网络世界也可能是一个极其宝贵的资源，如果他们不在生命早期探索互联网，就有可能错过关键的学习机会，也有可能错过养成健康上网习惯的机会。”)”可推知，他对互联网持支持态度。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Educators and experts worldwide are urging(智促) parents to take action to prevent children from being addicted to the Internet, even kids admit to feeling better without electronic devices, such as pads and cellphones. and say they wish adults would do more to help them learn and grow without wasting too much time online. So where does this all leave us? What's a responsible parent to do?(世界各地的教育工作者和专家都在敦促父母采取行动，防止孩子沉迷于互联网。即使是孩子们也承认没有电子设备会感觉更好，并表示他们希望成年人能做更多的事情来帮助他们学习和成长，而不会在网上浪费太多时间。那么这一切给我们留下了什么呢?负责任的父母该怎么做?)”及第三段中“Many parental control apps are designed to create safer online spaces for kids,(许多家长控制应用程序旨在为孩子创建更安全的在线空间)”及“Take Angel Al for example. Angel Al is an app expected out this fall that allows kids to explore the Internet while holding the digital hand of an Al built specifcally to keep them out of harm's way.(以AngeAI为例。Angel AI是一款预计今年秋季推出的应用程序，它允许孩子们在探索互联网时握住一个专门为保护他们免受伤害而构建的人工智能的数字之手)”可知，文章主要介绍了家长控制类应用程序这一工具。由此推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍一种指导孩子使用互联网的新方法。故选D项。 D When I mentioned to some friends that we all have accents, most of them proudly replied, “Well, I speak perfect English/Chinese.” But this kind of reply misses the point. More often than not, what we mean when we say someone “has an accent” is that their accent is different from the local one, or that their pronunciations are different from our own. But this understanding of accents is limiting and could give rise to prejudice (偏见). Funnily enough, in the language study, every person speaks with an accent. It is the regular differences in how we produce sounds that decide our accents. Even if you don’t hear it yourself, you speak with some sort of accent. In this sense, it’s pointless to point out that someone “has an accent”. We all do! Every person speaks a dialect (方言), too. In the field of language study, a dialect is a version of a language that is characterized by its variations of structure, phrases and words. For instance, “You got eat or not?” (meaning “Have you eaten?”) is an acceptable and understood question in Singapore Oral English. The fact that this expression would cause a standard American English speaker to stop for a while doesn’t mean that Singapore Oral English is “wrong” or “ungrammatical”. The sentence is well-formed and clearly communicative, according to native Singapore English speakers’ solid system of grammar. Why should it be wrong just because it’s different? We need to move beyond a narrow understanding of accents and dialects – for the good of everyone. Language differences like these provide insights (深刻见解) into people’s cultural experiences and backgrounds. In a global age, the way one speaks is a distinct part of who they are. Most people would be happy to talk about the cultures behind their speech. We’d learn more about the world we live in and make friends along the way. 12. What does the author think of some friends’ reply in paragraph 1? A. It’s impolite and wrong. B. It shows their language levels. C. It reflects their self-confidence. D. It misses the real meaning of accents. 13. Why does the author use the example of Singapore Oral English? A. To prove dialects are acceptable. B. To show various types of English. C. To correct a grammatical mistake. D. To encourage more changes to languages. 14. What does the author mostly want us to do in the last paragraph? A. To learn to speak with our local dialects. B. To treasure the value of accents and dialects. C. To have friends with different accents and dialects. D. To have a better understanding of people’s experiences. 15. What can be a suitable title for this passage? A. Everyone Has an Accent B. Standard English Is at Risk C. Dialects Lead to Misunderstanding D. Accents Tell Everything about You 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要论述的是语言差异可以帮助人们洞察他人的文化经历和背景，因此我们要欣赏口音和方言的价值。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据首段中的“When I mentioned to some friends that we all have accents, most of them proudly replied, “Well, I speak perfect English/Chinese.” But this kind of reply misses the point. (当我向一些朋友提到我们都有口音时，他们中的大多数人自豪地回答说：“嗯，我的英语/汉语说得很好。”但这种回答没有抓住要点。)”可知，作者在向朋友提到每人都有口音时，他们的回答没有切中要点，由此可知，作者认为他/她的朋友忽略了口音的真正含义。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Every person speaks a dialect (方言), too. In the field of language study, a dialect is a version of a language that is characterized by its variations of structure, phrases and words.(每个人也说一种方言。在语言研究领域，方言是一种语言，其特点是其结构，短语和单词的变体。)”可知，方言也是一种语言，只是其结构、短语和单词发生了一些改变，每个人都在说着方言，进而在下文中列举了新加坡英语口语，结合下文中的“The sentence is well-formed and clearly communicative, according to native Singapore English speakers’ solid system of grammar. Why should it be wrong just because it’s different? (根据新加坡英语使用者坚实的语法体系，这个句子结构良好，沟通清晰。为什么仅仅因为它不同就应该是错误的？)”可知，作者认为不能因为它不同就认为它是错的，它仍然在被人们使用，综上信息可知，作者使用新加坡口语的例子是在为了证明方言是可以接受的。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据尾段中的“Language differences like these provide insights (深刻见解) into people’s cultural experiences and backgrounds.(像这样的语言差异可以洞察人们的文化经历和背景。)”可知，通过语言的差异可以洞察人们的文化经历和背景，结合下文中的“Most people would be happy to talk about the cultures behind their speech. We’d learn more about the world we live in and make friends along the way.(大多数人都乐于谈论他们语言背后的文化。我们会更多地了解我们生活的世界，并在这一过程中结交朋友。)”可知，大多数人都乐于谈论它们语言背后的文化，这样会让我们更多的了解我们生活的世界，也就是说在口音和方言有其存在的价值和意义，由此可知，作者在最后一段中建议我们欣赏口音和方言的价值。故选B项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据首段“When I mentioned to some friends that we all have accents, most of them proudly replied, “Well, I speak perfect English/Chinese.” But this kind of reply misses the point.(当我向一些朋友提到我们都有口音时，他们中的大多数人自豪地回答说：“嗯，我的英语/汉语说得很好。”但这种回答没有抓住要点。)”可知，作者利用自己的经历引出本文讲述的话题——人们对有口音的理解，结合尾段中的“We need to move beyond a narrow understanding of accents and dialects – for the good of everyone. Language differences like these provide insights (深刻见解) into people’s cultural experiences and backgrounds. (为了每个人的利益，我们需要超越对口音和方言的狭隘理解。像这样的语言差异提供了对人们的文化经历和背景的洞察。)”可知，作者建议我们超越对口音和方言的狭隘理解，语言的差异通可以帮助我们洞察他人的文化经历和背景，综合以上信息可知，本文应该介绍的是人们都有口音，而且每种口音和方言都有其价值，作者建议欣赏口音和方言的价值，所以本文的题目为“每人都有口音”涵盖了本文的内容，且可以概括本文的主题。故选A项。 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Learning English is a challenging task, but it is also very rewarding.

The two of them almost went everywhere together. However, it seemed that things changed for no reason. That was a Tuesday, Jane was waiting in the corridor outside her class. She had two exams that day and physics was the first. She really hated physics. Her friend Catherine looked at her from the front of the line, and then looked away quickly. Jane thought she looked guilty (内疚的). She didn’t have a problem with physics. She didn’t have a problem with anything...Miss Perfect! “Hi, Jane, it’s your favorite exam today,” said Maya, laughing as she joined the line. Catherine was looking at Jane again. “So what’s wrong with her?” asked Maya. “I thought you were friends.” “Yes, so did I,” said Jane, “but she hasn’t spoken to me for two weeks. She promised to help me review for the physics exam too, but then she ignored (忽视) all my calls and texts. She seemed to have forgotten who her friends are!” “Are you listening to me?” Mr Richard was talking to the class and the other students were going into the exam room. Jane gave Maya a worried look and followed them. Jane couldn’t answer question number five. She looked up and saw Catherine sitting two rows in front of her. Jane couldn’t believe it! Catherine was holding her phone on her knee under the table and reading on it. Is that how Catherine always got such good grades? She felt really angry at Catherine, but she didn’t know what to do. She thought about telling the teacher, but what would everyone else think of her? “Stop writing and put your pens down,” said Mr Richard as he started to collect the exam papers. Jane wanted to talk to Catherine at lunchtime, but she couldn’t find her anywhere. The next exam was history. That was Jane’s favorite subject but she wasn’t feeling good.

Mr Richard picked up her exam paper and told Catherine to leave the classroom. Jane was walking towards the school gate when she heard footsteps behind her. It was Catherine. “Jane, please me. He thought I was cheating. He believes me now. I’m waiting,” said Catherine. “I’m really sorry I didn’t answer your calls. My dad has been in hospital for two weeks.

On her last day as a teacher, she was expecting a small celebratory meal with her close family. But instead, she gets a huge surprise! She opens the door to a surprise that brings tears of joy. The room is packed with 40 guests, including her family, friends, and the people she worked with. Nancy Jenkins has been teaching for 42 years, spending 37 of those years in special education at Winter Park Elementary School in Wilmington. In spite of the challenges, her love for her students never changed. She used many creative and interesting activities to help her students learn. She says these activities are some of the ones that she and her students enjoyed most. She also worked closely with parents, caregivers, and other professionals to create a supportive environment for the children, maximizing (使……最大化) the potential (潜力) for success and well-being for each child under her care. Nancy’s daughter, Maggie Marsh, highlighted (突出) her mom’s kindness and positivity. “She is known as someone who would not only help a coworker or student in time of need, but she would also make them laugh or smile.” Inspired by Nancy’s devotion, (奉献) Maggie organized the celebration not only for her mom’s retirement but also to honor her career as an educator. “After 42 years of selflessly putting others before herself and stepping in to help whenever necessary, my mom was more than deserving of this celebration, and she is more than deserving of this retirement,” says Maggie. For Nancy, she was just doing what she loved. “I love teaching and it’s never boring,” she says. “Every day is different.” After her retirement, Nancy Jenkins will offer her help to children in need any time. Nancy says people who want to be teachers should make sure they are patient with their students. She also encourages them to choose subjects that they care deeply about. “Keep working on what you love to do in life,” she says. 4 What can be learned about Nancy Jenkins? A. She began her teaching career at about 26 years old. B. She felt sad on her last day as a teacher. C. She couldn't wait to meet her guests after work. D. She celebrated her retirement with a family get-together. 5. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Why Maggie organized the celebration for her mom. B. What an educator should do for other people. C. How Nancy helped her coworkers and students. D. Whether it was the right time for Nancy to retire. 6. What qualities are necessary for a teacher according to Nancy Jenkins? A. Cooperation and courage. B. Creativity and generosity. C. Selflessness and humor. D. Patience and passion. 7 Where is the text most probably taken from ? A. An introduction to a school. B. A feature on a retired teacher. C. A speech of ordinary people. D. An article on special people. C Educators and experts worldwide are urging (督促) parents to take action to prevent children from being addicted (沉溺于) to the Internet. Even kids admit to feeling better without electronic (电子的) devices, such as pads and cellphones, and say they wish adults would do more to help them learn and grow without wasting too much time online. So where does this all leave us? What’s a responsible parent to do? When it comes to kids and screens, there’s a big difference between children spending hours online without parental controls and children interacting with carefully selected content (内容) for 20 minutes at a time with a parent. Luckily, there's also a lot of in-between. Many parental control apps are designed to create safer online spaces for kids. It’s too early to say which helps most, but the most essential feature of any set of parental controls is the ability to use them to help kids grow and learn. Take Angel AI for example. Angel AT is an app expected out this fall that allows kids to explore the Internet while holding the digital hand of an AI built specifically to keep them out of harm's way. Angel understands age-proper content and sensitive (敏感的) topics that are best handled by an adult. The content Angel looks at or creates is secured and no searches are linked to any personal information. “We’re not in the business of taking the Internet away from kids; as any parent can prove, kids want what they can’t have, ” Tim Estes, CEO of Angel Al, writes via email. “The online world also can be an incredibly valuable resource for kids, who risk missing out on key learning opportunities, as well as the chance to build healthy online habits, if they don’t explore the Internet earlier on in life.” Parental control apps, as a tool we can actually use for good, can be a sort of protective bubble for kids as they surf the Internet. 8. What does the underlined word “in-between” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Time spent on the Internet by kids. B. Technology for managing kids’ screen time. C. Content suitable for children to select. D. Advice on saving kids from the Internet. 9. How does the author describe parental control apps? A. By making a prediction and suggesting solutions. B. By bringing up a question and presenting the answers. C. By comparing different apps and listing their advantages D. By giving an example and explaining how it works. 10. What’s the attitude of Tim Estes towards the Internet? A. Fearful. B. Disapproving. C. Supportive. D. Uncertain. 11. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To encourage parents to help their kids grow. B. To call for the development of online learning. C. To warn parents to keep kids away from the Internet. D. To introduce a new way to guide children’s Internet use. D When I mentioned to some friends that we all have accents, most of them proudly replied, “Well, I speak perfect English/Chinese.” But this kind of reply misses the point. More often than not, what we mean when we say someone “has an accent” is that their accent is different from the local one, or that their pronunciations are different from our own. But this understanding of accents is limiting and could give rise to prejudice (偏见). Funnily enough, in the language study, every person speaks with an accent. It is the regular differences in how we produce sounds that decide our accents. Even if you don’t hear it yourself, you speak with some sort of accent. In this sense, it’s pointless to point out that someone “has an accent”. We all do! Every person speaks a dialect (方言), too. In the field of language study, a dialect is a version of a language that is characterized by its variations of structure, phrases and words. For instance, “You got eat or not?” (meaning “Have you eaten?”) is an acceptable and understood question in Singapore Oral English. The fact that this expression would cause a standard American English speaker to stop for a while doesn’t mean that Singapore Oral English is “wrong” or “ungrammatical”. The sentence is well-formed and clearly communicative, according to native Singapore English speakers’ solid system of grammar. Why should it be wrong just because it’s different? We need to move beyond a narrow understanding of accents and dialects – for the good of everyone. Language differences like these provide insights (深刻见解) into people’s cultural experiences and backgrounds. In a global age, the way one speaks is a distinct part of who they are. Most people would be happy to talk about the cultures behind their speech. We’d learn more about the world we live in and make friends along the way. 12. What does the author think of some friends’ reply in paragraph 1? A. It’s impolite and wrong. B. It shows their language levels. C. It reflects their self-confidence. D. It misses the real meaning of accents. 13. Why does the author use the example of Singapore Oral English? A. To prove dialects are acceptable. B. To show various types of English. C. To correct a grammatical mistake. D. To encourage more changes to languages. 14. What does the author mostly want us to do in the last paragraph? A. To learn to speak with our local dialects. B. To treasure the value of accents and dialects. C. To have friends with different accents and dialects. D. To have a better understanding of people’s experiences. 15. What can be a suitable title for this passage? A. Everyone Has an Accent B. Standard English Is at Risk C. Dialects Lead to Misunderstanding D. Accents Tell Everything about You 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。 Learning English is a challenging task, but it is also very rewarding.

She had two exams that day and physics was the first. She really hated physics. Her friend Catherine looked at her from the front of the line, and then looked away quickly.
