A librarian, she read to her three children every day. “Not until we went to kindergarten,” Williams said. “Until we went to college.” When Williams, now 54, became an elementary school teacher in Danville, Virginia, she wanted her students to fall in love with reading just as she had. But early on, she realized that some kids had limited access to books. “Kids who are read to perform much better than those who are not,” she said. “It’s obvious at the end of the first day of school.” To Williams, the solution was simple: Give kids books. In 2017, as part of an event called Engage Danville, she gave away 900 used children’s books over three days. Most people would be satisfied with that. She said, “I wanted to do something.” So she set a new goal for herself: Give away one million books. It sounds like an unreachable number. However, Williams posted on Facebook: “Don’t complain in the bleachers (看台) if you aren’t willing to work hard out on the field.” She got to work, first by persuading friends to donate (捐赠) books or money to buy books. Soon, as news of Williams’ project spread, strangers started putting books in front of her door. As quickly as the books came in, Williams gave them to local schools free of charge. She also hosted a book club for prisoners in the local jail. In the four years, Williams has given away more than 78,000 books—only 922,000 more to reach her goal! And she’s not slowing down. “Reading can take you anywhere,” she said. “You can travel in time and space. If you can read, you can learn almost anything.” 4. What is the purpose of Williams’ donation? A. To enable more children to read books. B. To raise kids’ awareness of buying books. C To encourage teachers to read books to kids. D. To give prisoners books free of charge. 5. Why did Williams post on Facebook? A. She could make more friends. B. She wanted to seek more help. C. She was tired of the complaining. D. She needed to buy books online. 6. Which words best describe Jennifer Williams? A. Kind but stubborn. B. Generous but impatient. C. Independent and active. D. Determined and devoted. 7. What might be the best title for the text? A. A Donation Project B. A Reading Lover C. The Book Lady D. The Great Event 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7.

In 2017, as part of an event called Engage Danville, she gave away 900 used children’s books over three days.”（对于威廉姆斯来说，解决办法很简单：给孩子们书。在2017年，作为“Engage Danville”活动的一部分，她在三天内赠送了900本二手儿童书籍。）可知，威廉姆斯捐赠书籍的目的是让更多的孩子有书读。故选A项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Soon, as news of Williams’ project spread, strangers started putting books in front of her door.”（不久随着威廉姆斯项目消息的传播，陌生人们开始把书放在她的门前。）可知，她在网上发布信息的原因是希望通过媒体的力量得到他人的帮助。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“So she set a new goal for herself: Give away one million books.”（所以她给自己定了一个新目标:送出100万本书），“She got to work, first by persuading friends to donate (捐赠) books or money to buy books. Soon, as news of Williams’ project spread, strangers started putting books in front of her door. As quickly as the books came in, Williams gave them to local schools free of charge. She also hosted a book club for prisoners in the local jail.”（她开始工作，首先是说服朋友们捐书或花钱买书。很快，随着威廉姆斯项目的消息传开，陌生人开始把书放在她的门前。这些书一到，威廉姆斯就免费送给了当地的学校。她还为当地监狱的囚犯举办了一个读书俱乐部），再根据第六段“In the four years, Williams has given away more than 78,000 books—only 922,000 more to reach her goal!”（在四年时间里，威廉姆斯已经送出了78000多本书，还有922000本书才能达到她的目标）推知，她是一个有决心且有奉献精神的人。故选D项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“To Williams, the solution was simple: Give kids books.

Scientists Dr. Robert Maurer, Dr. Peter Schultz, and Dr. Donald Keck invented the first low-loss optical fiber in 1970. Inspired by their belief that information could be sent through light, they spent four years experimenting with different kinds of glass until they succeeded. Optical fiber was an answer to consumer demand for increased bandwidth (带宽). Beginning in the 1960s, the telecommunications industry realized that the existing copper wire infrastructure (基础设施) could no longer keep up as communications traffic increased. Optical fiber changed the telecommunications industry greatly because it, unlike copper, offered limitless bandwidth. Because of those qualities, optical fiber has become the backbone of the networks that we use today to send voice, data, and video around the world. The first optical fiber was celebrated for having a total attenuation of 17dB/km. Today, there are optical fibers with attenuation as low as 0.17dB/km, which translates to signal loss being 100 times better than the first one. As a result, optical fiber is the preferred medium for fast, reliable communications networks. Today, optical fiber provides the infrastructure for broadband connectivity all around the world. Optical fiber supports all the communications and interactive technology we use every day. Because of the global fiber network, you have instant access to voice, information, and video through devices such as smartphones, computers, high-definition TV, GPS, and game systems through which you get directions, send email, conduct research, join social networks, shop, and download music, movies, and more. As has been the case from the very beginning, one driver that shapes the future of optical fiber is market demand. Optical fiber continues to create new opportunities in how we live, work, and play. Innovations such as Cloud Computing will enable us to partner with technology in a way never before possible. 8. What drives the scientists to invent the optical fiber? A. No enough copper. B. Better understanding of light. C. Invention of glass. D. Need for faster information sending. 9. What does the underlined word “attenuation” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Signal. B. Loss. C. Power. D. Metal. 10. What can we learn about the optical fiber in paragraph 4? A. It has limited usage. B. It needs more devices. C. It offers better resources. D. It benefits life and technology. 11. Which word can be used to describe the future of optical fiber? A. Promising. B. Demanding. C. Uncertain. D. Unthinkable. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了为了满足消费者对带宽的需求，科学家们发明了光纤，并介绍了光纤给我们生活带来的好处。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段关键句“Optical fiber was an answer to consumer demand for increased bandwidth (带宽). Beginning in the 1960s, the telecommunications industry realized that the existing copper wire infrastructure (基础设施) could no longer keep up as communications traffic increased. Optical fiber changed the telecommunications industry greatly because it, unlike copper, offered limitless bandwidth.”（光纤是消费者增加带宽需求的一种解决方案。从20世纪60年代开始，电信行业意识到，随着通信流量的增加，现有的铜线基础设施已无法满足需求。光纤极大地改变了电信行业，因为它不像铜，提供了无限的带宽。）可知，随着通信流量的增加，消费者增加了对带宽的需求，需要更快的信息发送，现有的铜线基础设施已无法满足需求，光纤是针对这一问题的解决方案，由此可知，人们需要更快的信息发送，这一需求驱使科学家们发明了光纤。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据画线单词下文“Today, there are optical fibers with attenuation as low as 0.17dB/km, which translates to signal loss being 100 times better than the first one.”（如今，有损耗低至0.17dB/km的光纤，这意味着信号损耗比第一种光纤好100倍。）可知，本段主要介绍的是光纤的信号损耗问题，由此可知，上文指第一种光纤的总损耗为17dB/km，现有的损耗低至0.17dB/km的光纤比第一种光纤好100倍，“Loss”意为“损失，丢失”，能够表达画线单词在句中所要表达的意思。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段关键句“Optical fiber supports all the communications and interactive technology we use every day. Because of the global fiber network, you have instant access to voice, information, and video through devices such as smartphones, computers, high-definition TV, GPS, and game systems through which you get directions, send email, conduct research, join social networks, shop, and download music, movies, and more.”（光纤支持我们日常使用的所有通信和交互技术。由于全球光纤网络，你可以通过智能手机、计算机、高清电视、GPS和游戏系统等设备即时访问语音、信息和视频，通过这些设备你可以获得方向、发送电子邮件、进行研究、加入社交网络、购物和下载音乐、电影等。）可知，光纤有益于技术，它支持我们日常使用的所有通信和交互技术；光纤有益于生活，由于全球光纤网络，我们可以通过智能手机等获得方向、发送电子邮件、购物和下载音乐等，由此可知，在第四段中，我们可以得知光纤有益于生活和技术。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段关键句“Optical fiber continues to create new opportunities in how we live, work, and play. Innovations such as Cloud Computing will enable us to partner with technology in a way never before possible.”（光纤继续为我们的生活、工作和娱乐方式创造新的机会。云计算等创新将使我们能够以前所未有的方式与技术合作。）可知，在未来，光纤将继续为我们的生活、工作和娱乐方式创造新的机会，由此可知，光纤的未来是有前途的。故选A项。 D Opinions differ on the question of whether it is better to live in the city or in the countryside. However, due to the rapid upward trend in house prices in cities, people are increasingly choosing to move to a rural(乡村的) area. Reason enough to take a closer look at the arguments for living in the city and in the country. Living in the city continues to be extremely popular. The proportion of the population living in rural areas has been falling continuously since the middle of the 19th century which was marked by industrialization(工业化). More and more people moved to the cities to find work. Infrastructure is one of the biggest advantages of cities. A well-developed network of public transportation often makes that a car is not absolutely necessary. In the countryside, on the other hand, you almost always need a car to be flexible(灵活的). Related to infrastructure, mobility is also an argument for living in the city. Very often, rural regions are not or only connected to the rail network and also do not have an adequate bus system. In the cities, there is a wide range of entertaining options, from cultural opportunities and other clubs. The latter, however, are increasingly found in the countryside as well. In addition, rural areas offer many options for outdoor activities. The expansion of digital networks is still in its beginnings in some rural regions. Here, the city clearly has the better offer. However, this is set to change, and various research projects and plans to expand digital networks are intended to promote the connection of rural residential areas. 12. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. To introduce the main topic. B. To raise readers’ interest. C. To put forward a reason. D. To present different opinions. 13. What resulted in the growth of the population in cities? A. Colorful outdoor activities. B. Low housing prices. C. More job opportunities. D. Strong cultural atmosphere. 14. What is the author’s attitude towards life in the countryside? A. Uncaring. B. Optimistic. C. Doubtful. D. Grateful. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. The means of transportation in the city. B. The similarities between different cultures. C. The advantages of living in the countryside. D. The different views on living in the city or the rural area. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇议论文。在城市生活好还是在农村生活好？文章就这一话题，对生活在城市和农村的优缺点分别进行了阐述和讨论。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Reason enough to take a closer look at the arguments for living in the city and in the country.”（理由足以让我们仔细看看是住在城市还是住在乡村）可知，第一段提出了住在城市还是住在农村都是有一定理由的；而第二、三、四段主要是描述了住在城市或农村各自的利弊，是对住在城市或农村选择的解释说明，所以第一段是为了引出主要话题的。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The proportion of the population living in rural areas has been falling continuously since the middle of the 19th century which was marked by industrialization(工业化). More and more people moved to the cities to find work.”（生活在农村地区的人口比例自19世纪中叶以工业化为标志以来一直在下降，越来越多的人到城市去找工作。）可知，自工业化以来，城市的就业机会增多，越来越多的人到城市去找工作，导致了农村人口的减少和城市人口的增长。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The latter, however, are increasingly found in the countryside as well. In addition, rural areas offer many options for outdoor activities.”（然而，后者也越来越多地出现在农村。此外，农村地区还提供了许多户外活动的选择。）和最后一段“However, this is set to change, and various research projects and plans to expand digital networks are intended to promote the connection of rural residential areas.”（然而，这种情况将会改变，各种研究项目和扩大数字网络的计划都旨在促进农村居民区的连接。）可知，作者认为虽然农村生活目前还有一些不便，但今后会逐渐改变，作者对此是持乐观态度的。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Opinions differ on the question of whether it is better to live in the city or in the countryside.”（关于住在城市好还是住在农村好这个问题，人们意见不一。）及全文内容可知，本文主要讨论了人们对于住在城市还是农村所持有的不同观点。故选D。 第二节(共5小题，每小题2. 5分，共 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。 High school is a busy time, but it doesn’t have to be hard!

She had a passion for soccer that burned brighter than any other flame in her heart. However, Sara faced a big challenge — her legs were not as strong as her friends, requiring her to rely on crutches (拐杖) for support. Saras friends gathered on the soccer field every day, their laughter and shouts of excitement filling the air. She watched them with envy, longing to join in their games. But whenever she tried to play, the reality of her limitations would hit her hard, and she would feel a wave of disappointment. Despite this, Sara refused to let her dreams die. She loved soccer with all her heart, and she was determined not to give up. One day, the school announced an important soccer match. Sara's heart skipped a beat when she heard the news. She wanted to participate more than anything, but she knew that many kids would doubt her abilities because of her legs. Instead of giving up to their doubts, Sara chose to accept them as a source of strength. She began practising hard every day after school. Using her crutches, she kicked the ball with all her strength, gradually mastering the art of balancing herself. Sometimes, she would fall down, but each time, she would pick herself up with determination. Her face would be sweaty and dirty, but her eyes would shine with determination. Finally, the day arrived. Sara's team had made it to the final match, and she had been given a chance to play. The crowd roared with excitement as she took her position on the field. Everyone cheered her on, their voices a mix of encouragement and admiration. Although Sara couldn't run like the others, she used her skills and wisdom to pass the ball, her crutches becoming her secret weapon (武器) on the field. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为100左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答. In the last moments, the ball came to Sara. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】In the last moments, the ball came to Sara. She couldn't believe that the ball would roll to her feet. She wanted to make full use of this opportunity and demonstrate to her classmates that despite relying on crutches, she could playsoccer well. She used the skills she had acquired while practicing football to firmly control the ball under her feet. It was difficult for the opponent to snatch the ball from her feet. The classmates on the field had big eyes and were surprised by Sara's ball control skills. As she approached the goal, Sara lifted her crutches and shot the perfect ball with all her strength. The ball was in the goal. In an instant, the crowd erupted with shouts and cheers. Sara's school team won the game. She was a hero. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了萨拉尽管要依靠拐杖来支撑，但她仍然对足球充满着热情。一天，学校宣布了一场重要的足球比赛，她非常想参与其中，但她知道很多孩子会因为她的腿而怀疑她的能力。她开始每天放学后刻苦练习。终于，这一天到来了。萨拉的队伍进入了决赛，她得到了上场的机会。 【详解】1.段落续写： 由第一段首句内容“在最后一刻，球落到萨拉脚下。”可知，第一段可描写作者萨拉的心理活动、表现以及比赛的结果。 2.续写线索：萨拉的心理活动——用掌握的技能控球——同学们的惊讶——接近球门——完美射门——赢得比赛 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①利用：make full use of /take advantage of ②获得：acquire/gain ③接近：approach /come near ④爆发：break out/erupt 情绪类 ①惊讶的：surprised/astonished ②困难的：tough/difficult 【点睛】[高分句型1] She used the skills she had acquired while practicing football to firmly control the ball under her feet.

B It was Jennifer Williams’ mother who got her glued to books. A librarian, she read to her three children every day. “Not until we went to kindergarten,” Williams said. “Until we went to college.” When Williams, now 54, became an elementary school teacher in Danville, Virginia, she wanted her students to fall in love with reading just as she had. But early on, she realized that some kids had limited access to books. “Kids who are read to perform much better than those who are not,” she said. “It’s obvious at the end of the first day of school.” To Williams, the solution was simple: Give kids books. In 2017, as part of an event called Engage Danville, she gave away 900 used children’s books over three days. Most people would be satisfied with that. She said, “I wanted to do something.” So she set a new goal for herself: Give away one million books. It sounds like an unreachable number. However, Williams posted on Facebook: “Don’t complain in the bleachers (看台) if you aren’t willing to work hard out on the field.” She got to work, first by persuading friends to donate (捐赠) books or money to buy books. Soon, as news of Williams’ project spread, strangers started putting books in front of her door. As quickly as the books came in, Williams gave them to local schools free of charge. She also hosted a book club for prisoners in the local jail. In the four years, Williams has given away more than 78,000 books—only 922,000 more to reach her goal! And she’s not slowing down. “Reading can take you anywhere,” she said. “You can travel in time and space. If you can read, you can learn almost anything.” 4. What is the purpose of Williams’ donation? A. To enable more children to read books. B. To raise kids’ awareness of buying books. C. To encourage teachers to read books to kids. D. To give prisoners books free of charge. 5. Why did Williams post on Facebook? A. She could make more friends. B. She wanted to seek more help. C. She was tired of the complaining. D She needed to buy books online. 6. Which words best describe Jennifer Williams? A. Kind but stubborn. B. Generous but impatient. C. Independent and active. D. Determined and devoted. 7. What might be the best title for the text? A. A Donation Project B. A Reading Lover C. The Book Lady D. The Great Event C Optical (光学的) fiber is a flexible line of glass capable of carrying information over long distances. Scientists Dr. Robert Maurer, Dr. Peter Schultz, and Dr. Donald Keck invented the first low-loss optical fiber in 1970. Inspired by their belief that information could be sent through light, they spent four years experimenting with different kinds of glass until they succeeded. Optical fiber was an answer to consumer demand for increased bandwidth (带宽). Beginning in the 1960s, the telecommunications industry realized that the existing copper wire infrastructure (基础设施) could no longer keep up as communications traffic increased. Optical fiber changed the telecommunications industry greatly because it, unlike copper, offered limitless bandwidth. Because of those qualities, optical fiber has become the backbone of the networks that we use today to send voice, data, and video around the world. The first optical fiber was celebrated for having a total attenuation of 17dB/km. Today, there are optical fibers with attenuation as low as 0.17dB/km, which translates to signal loss being 100 times better than the first one. As a result, optical fiber is the preferred medium for fast, reliable communications networks. Today, optical fiber provides the infrastructure for broadband connectivity all around the world. Optical fiber supports all the communications and interactive technology we use every day. Because of the global fiber network, you have instant access to voice, information, and video through devices such as smartphones, computers, high-definition TV, GPS, and game systems through which you get directions, send email, conduct research, join social networks, shop, and download music, movies, and more. As has been the case from the very beginning, one driver that shapes the future of optical fiber is market demand. Optical fiber continues to create new opportunities in how we live, work, and play. Innovations such as Cloud Computing will enable us to partner with technology in a way never before possible. 8. What drives the scientists to invent the optical fiber? A. No enough copper. B. Better understanding of light. C. Invention of glass. D. Need for faster information sending. 9. What does the underlined word “attenuation” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Signal. B. Loss. C. Power. D. Metal. 10. What can we learn about the optical fiber in paragraph 4? A. It has limited usage. B. It needs more devices. C. It offers better resources. D. It benefits life and technology. 11. Which word can be used to describe the future of optical fiber? A. Promising. B. Demanding. C. Uncertain. D. Unthinkable. D Opinions differ on the question of whether it is better to live in the city or in the countryside. However, due to the rapid upward trend in house prices in cities, people are increasingly choosing to move to a rural(乡村的) area. Reason enough to take a closer look at the arguments for living in the city and in the country. Living in the city continues to be extremely popular. The proportion of the population living in rural areas has been falling continuously since the middle of the 19th century which was marked by industrialization(工业化). More and more people moved to the cities to find work. Infrastructure is one of the biggest advantages of cities. A well-developed network of public transportation often makes that a car is not absolutely necessary. In the countryside, on the other hand, you almost always need a car to be flexible(灵活的). Related to infrastructure, mobility is also an argument for living in the city. Very often, rural regions are not or only connected to the rail network and also do not have an adequate bus system. In the cities, there is a wide range of entertaining options, from cultural opportunities and other clubs. The latter, however, are increasingly found in the countryside as well. In addition, rural areas offer many options for outdoor activities. The expansion of digital networks is still in its beginnings in some rural regions. Here, the city clearly has the better offer. However, this is set to change, and various research projects and plans to expand digital networks are intended to promote the connection of rural residential areas. 12. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. To introduce the main topic. B. To raise readers’ interest. C. To put forward a reason. D. To present different opinions. 13. What resulted in the growth of the population in cities? A. Colorful outdoor activities. B. Low housing prices. C. More job opportunities. D Strong cultural atmosphere. 14.

She had a passion for soccer that burned brighter than any other flame in her heart. However, Sara faced a big challenge — her legs were not as strong as her friends, requiring her to rely on crutches (拐杖) for support. Saras friends gathered on the soccer field every day, their laughter and shouts of excitement filling the air. She watched them with envy, longing to join in their games. But whenever she tried to play, the reality of her limitations would hit her hard, and she would feel a wave of disappointment. Despite this, Sara refused to let her dreams die. She loved soccer with all her heart, and she was determined not to give up. One day, the school announced an important soccer match. Sara's heart skipped a beat when she heard the news. She wanted to participate more than anything, but she knew that many kids would doubt her abilities because of her legs. Instead of giving up to their doubts, Sara chose to accept them as a source of strength. She began practising hard every day after school. Using her crutches, she kicked the ball with all her strength, gradually mastering the art of balancing herself. Sometimes, she would fall down, but each time, she would pick herself up with determination. Her face would be sweaty and dirty, but her eyes would shine with determination. Finally, the day arrived. Sara's team had made it to the final match, and she had been given a chance to play. The crowd roared with excitement as she took her position on the field. Everyone cheered her on, their voices a mix of encouragement and admiration. Although Sara couldn't run like the others, she used her skills and wisdom to pass the ball, her crutches becoming her secret weapon (武器) on the field. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为100左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答. In the last moments, the ball came to Sara. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 ACCBB 6-10 CABCA 11-15 BCCAC 16-20 BABAC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
