“Clothes Swapping(交换)” has become an increasingly popular activity for women in the United States. The women can give away unwanted clothing at a clothes swap event and get something different in return.
Recently about 300 women went to a clothes swap at a high school in Springfield, Virginia. It was the largest crowd ever for the area’s popular clothing-swapping group.
Daphne Steinberg was having a good day. “For anyone who knows Ann Taylor LOFT, Ann Taylor is a really nice women’s designer and I will totally wear this to work. So I love that, I love that I can equip myself for work, have a good time in doing it, not totally bankrupt myself.”
Sandy Van Dusen likes the idea that clothes are finding new homes instead of being thrown away “Because it helps to keep the Earth green. There’s no point in my opinion in continuing to buy new clothes when we can reuse what’s already here. Give it a new home-let somebody else love what you used to love and no longer love.”
Kim Pratt organized the clothing-swapping event in Springfield. She also organized a money-raising activity for the high school’s debate team. It is one of several ways that her group gives to charitable causes. Another is by donating all of the “un-swapped” clothing to shelters for victims of domestic violence.
“I started doing this four years ago, and we’ve been doing it for four years, getting bigger and bigger each time we have a swap.”
She used the social media website meetup.com to help publicize the events. The website has helped her group grow from 30 members to 1,300. Mrs. Pratt says most of the members respect the clothing swap rules. But she says competition for desirable fashion can be strong.
“We have to tell people sometimes not to hover (徘徊) over the new people coming in with their clothing. As they put it out, some people tend to grab the stuff right out of their hands and it becomes like a free-for-all. We try to avoid that as much as possible.”
24. At a clothes swap what can women do?
A. Buy whatever clothing they want.
B. Have a social gathering and make friends.
C. Make money by selling unwanted clothes.
D. Exchange unwanted clothes for something different.
25. What can be learnt from what Daphne Steinberg said?
A. She got some nice clothes at the clothes swap.
B. The clothes swap was the largest ever in the area.
C. It was the first time she had been to a clothes swap.
D. She saved much more money than she had expected.
26. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. How Kim Pratt started the clothing-swapping event.
B. What Kim Pratt did with the un-swapped clothes.
C. How Kim Pratt raised money to help charitable causes.
D. What Kim Pratt did to help people in need.
27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Clothes swaps often go out of control in the end.
B. Clothes-swapping is becoming increasingly popular with women.
C. Improper behavior at clothes swaps needs to be controlled.
D. More clothing swapping events need to be organized.

We journalists live in a new age of storytelling, with many new multimedia tools. Many young people don’t even realize it’s new. For them, it’s just normal.
This hit home for me as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday. I had brought a children’s book to read. It had simple words and colorful pictures — a perfect match for his age.
Picture this: my grandson sitting on my lap as I hold the book in front so he can see the pictures. As I read, he reaches out and pokes (戳) the page with his finger.
What’s up with that? He just likes the pictures, I thought. Then I turned the page and continued. He poked the page even harder. I nearly dropped the book. I was confused: Is there something wrong with this kid?
Then I realized what was happening. He was actually a stranger to books. His father frequently amused the boy with a tablet computer which was loaded with colorful pictures that come alive when you poke them. He thought my storybook was like that.
Sorry, kid. This book is not part of your high-tech world. It’s an outdated, lifeless thing. An antique, like your grandfather. Well, I may be old, but I’m not hopelessly challenged, digitally speaking. I edit video and produce audio. I use mobile payment. I’ve even built websites.
There’s one notable gap in my new-media experience, however: I’ve spent little time in front of a camera, since I have a face made for radio. But that didn’t stop China Daily from asking me last week to share a personal story for a video project about the integration of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province.
Anyway, grandpa is now an internet star — two minutes of fame! I promise not to let it go to my head. But I will make sure my 2-year-old grandson sees it on his tablet.
28. What do the underlined words “hit home for me” mean in paragraph 2?
A Provided shelter for me. B. Became very clear to me.
C. Took the pressure off me. D. Worked quite well on me.
29. Why did the kid poke the storybook?
A. He took it for a tablet computer. B. He disliked the colorful pictures.
C. He was angry with his grandpa. D. He wanted to read it by himself.
30. What does the author think of himself?
A. Socially ambitious. B. Physically attractive.
C. Financially independent. D. Digitally competent.
31. What can we learn about the author as a journalist?
A. He lacks experience in his job. B. He seldom appears on television.
C. He manages a video department. D. He often interviews internet stars.
D
Hey,you—look up! Our iPhone addictions(瘾)are destroying public space and damaging the normal social communication. The host collects phones at the door of the dinner party. At a law firm,partners keep a“no-mobile phone”policy at meetings. Each day,a good number of people gather outside NewYork’s high schools, offering, for a small price, to store students’ mobile phones during the day. In public, it’s hard to think of a place beyond the darkness of the movie theater where phone use isn’t allowed. In truly public space-on sidewalks,in parks,on buses and on trains—we move with the face down, our phones shine like flashlights,
Consider the case of a recent murder on a San Francisco train. On Sept.23,in a crowded car, a man pulled a gun from his jacket. He raised the gun,pointing it across the aisle. He drew it out several more times, once using the hand holding the gun to wipe his nose. Dozens of passengers stood and sat just feet away—but none reacted. Their eyes,focused on smartphones, didn’t lift until the gunman fired a bulletin into the back of a San Francisco State student getting off the train.
There are thousands of similar stories that together sound the alarm for a new understanding of public space. In Japan,more than a dozen people fall off railway platforms while looking at their phones each year. Some experts there have called for bans on texting. Besides,many train station notices remind people to look where they are going,and even mobile phone companies have begun to educate users about the dangers of looking at a phone while walking.
The development of information technology is separating us from our surroundings. The urban theorist Malcolm McCullough writes“Closed in cars, often in headphones,seldom in places where they can communicate in person seldom choosing face-to-face meetings,modern citzens escaped from public life.
32. The author wrote Paragraph2 to_______.
A. explain how the mobile phone destroyed public places
B. list the examples of using mobile phones
C. tell us to use mobile phones in public places
D. make us believe the great changes of using mobil ephones
33. What can we conclude from the murder case on a SanFrancisco train?
A. The murder didn’t shoot the passengers on the train.
B. Many people were aware of the murderer before he shot.
C. It is no good ignoring other people around when taking trains.
D. Smartphone addictions have changed the normal social communication.
34. How did the author develop the passage?
A. Giving examples.
B Listing numbers.
C. Comparing facts.
D. Making conclusions.
35. The author in the last paragraph suggested_______.
A. smartphones have taken little people’s attention
B. the development of information technology has a good effect on people
C. too much use of smartphones may do harm to people’s communication
D. smartphones may change modern people’s life completely

Strange Footprints in the Snow
Tom woke up and looked around. For a moment, he wasn’t sure where he was. Then he remembered. He and his sister, Lucy, were visiting Aunt Gwen. Yesterday they spent seven hours helping Aunt Gwen clean her basement. Today they would have time to play.
He looked out of the window. Fresh snow covered the ground. He could hardly wait to go outside. Tom got dressed and hurried downstairs to the kitchen.
“Hi, sleepyhead(贪睡者),” said Aunt Gwen. “Lucy has already eaten her breakfast. She’s outside.”
“That’s where I’m going as soon as I finish breakfast,” Tom said.
A short time later, he zipped up(拉上拉链)his coat, put on his boots, and walked out of the front door. The sun made the snow sparkle. He looked around. He didn’t see his sister, but he saw something else. There were strange footprints left in the snow across Aunt Gwen’s yard.
“They’re far too big to be Lucy’s. They look like they belong to a dinosaur,” Tom said. Then he added, “But that’s silly. Dinosaurs are not around anymore.”
He looked closer: The footprints were the shape of a very large oval(椭圆)with a stem. “Maybe they belong to an elephant or a hippo that escaped from the zoo,” he thought. He held his breath and listened. He didn’t hear anything.
He remembered a book he’d seen earlier on Aunt Gwen’s shelf. It was a book about animal tracks. He dashed inside to get it. The book had pictures of animals and the tracks they made. He turned the pages one by one, but none of the photos looked like the footprints in Aunt Gwen’s yard.
He stared at those footprints again. An animal that made such big tracks would have to be heavy. Its tracks should sink far down into the snow. Yet these footprints seemed to skim across(掠过)the top.
How can that be? He wondered.
Tom noticed something else. The tracks never left Aunt Gwen’s yard. Instead, they turned and went around the house. “Maybe the animal is still here,” he whispered.
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。
Though a little scared, Tom made up his mind to find the animal.

It turned out that his sister was making the sounds.

“Clothes Swapping(交换)” has become an increasingly popular activity for women in the United States. The women can give away unwanted clothing at a clothes swap event and get something different in return.
Recently about 300 women went to a clothes swap at a high school in Springfield, Virginia. It was the largest crowd ever for the area’s popular clothing-swapping group.
Daphne Steinberg was having a good day. “For anyone who knows Ann Taylor LOFT, Ann Taylor is a really nice women’s designer and I will totally wear this to work. So I love that, I love that I can equip myself for work, have a good time in doing it, not totally bankrupt myself.”
Sandy Van Dusen likes the idea that clothes are finding new homes instead of being thrown away “Because it helps to keep the Earth green. There’s no point in my opinion in continuing to buy new clothes when we can reuse what’s already here. Give it a new home-let somebody else love what you used to love and no longer love.”
Kim Pratt organized the clothing-swapping event in Springfield. She also organized a money-raising activity for the high school’s debate team. It is one of several ways that her group gives to charitable causes. Another is by donating all of the “un-swapped” clothing to shelters for victims of domestic violence.
“I started doing this four years ago, and we’ve been doing it for four years, getting bigger and bigger each time we have a swap.”
She used the social media website meetup.com to help publicize the events. The website has helped her group grow from 30 members to 1,300. Mrs. Pratt says most of the members respect the clothing swap rules. But she says competition for desirable fashion can be strong.
“We have to tell people sometimes not to hover (徘徊) over the new people coming in with their clothing. As they put it out, some people tend to grab the stuff right out of their hands and it becomes like a free-for-all. We try to avoid that as much as possible.”
24. At a clothes swap what can women do?
A. Buy whatever clothing they want.
B. Have a social gathering and make friends.
C. Make money by selling unwanted clothes.
D. Exchange unwanted clothes for something different.
25. What can be learnt from what Daphne Steinberg said?
A. She got some nice clothes at the clothes swap.
B. The clothes swap was the largest ever in the area.
C. It was the first time she had been to a clothes swap.
D. She saved much more money than she had expected.
26. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. How Kim Pratt started the clothing-swapping event.
B. What Kim Pratt did with the un-swapped clothes.
C. How Kim Pratt raised money to help charitable causes.
D. What Kim Pratt did to help people in need.
27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Clothes swaps often go out of control in the end.
B. Clothes-swapping is becoming increasingly popular with women.
C. Improper behavior at clothes swaps needs to be controlled.
D. More clothing swapping events need to be organized.
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. D 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍“交换衣服”活动变得越来越受欢迎。此外还介绍了该活动带来的好处,以及存在的问题。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The women can give away unwanted clothing at a clothes swap event and get something different in return. (女士们可以在衣服交换活动中把不想要的衣服送出去,并得到一些不同的回报)”可知,女士们可以用自己不需要的东西交换一些不同的东西。故选D项。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段““For anyone who knows Ann Taylor LOFT, Ann Taylor is a really nice women’s designer and I will totally wear this to work. So I love that, I love that I can equip myself for work, have a good time in doing it, not totally bankrupt myself.”(“对任何了解安·泰勒LOFT的人来说,安·泰勒是一位非常好的女装设计师,我绝对会穿这件去上班。所以我喜欢这样,我喜欢我可以为工作做好准备,享受工作的乐趣,而不是彻底破产。”)”可知,Daphne Steinberg在衣服交换时得到了著名设计师设计的衣服,她非常的高兴,所以从Daphne Steinberg的话中可知,她在衣服交换活动中得到了几件好衣服。故选A项。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段中的“Kim Pratt organized the clothing-swapping event in Springfield. She also organized a money-raising activity for the high school’s debate team.( 金·普拉特(Kim Pratt)在斯普林菲尔德组织了换衣活动。她还为高中辩论队组织了一次筹款活动)”可知,Kim Pratt组织换衣服活动和给中学辩论队组织筹款活动,以及“Another is by donating all of the “un-swapped” clothing to shelters for victims of domestic violence. (另一种方式是将所有“未换”的衣服捐赠给家庭暴力受害者的庇护所) ”可知,她还组织把未被交换的衣服给避难所受家庭暴力伤害的人。由此可知,本段主要介绍了Kim Pratt为帮助有需要的人所做的事情。故选D项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最尾段中的“We have to tell people sometimes not to hover over the new people coming in with their clothing. As they put it out, some people tend to grab the stuff right out of their hands and it becomes like a free-for-all. We try to avoid that as much as possible.(我们有时必须告诉人们不要在带着衣服进来的新人身边徘徊。当他们把它拿出来时,有些人倾向于直接从他们手中抢走这些东西,它变得像一场混战。我们尽量避免这种情况)”可知,本段在提醒人们在交换衣服时要注意的事项,有些不当的行为需要得到控制。故选C项。
C
We journalists live in a new age of storytelling, with many new multimedia tools. Many young people don’t even realize it’s new. For them, it’s just normal.
This hit home for me as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday. I had brought a children’s book to read. It had simple words and colorful pictures — a perfect match for his age.
Picture this: my grandson sitting on my lap as I hold the book in front so he can see the pictures. As I read, he reaches out and pokes (戳) the page with his finger.
What’s up with that? He just likes the pictures, I thought. Then I turned the page and continued. He poked the page even harder. I nearly dropped the book. I was confused: Is there something wrong with this kid?
Then I realized what was happening. He was actually a stranger to books. His father frequently amused the boy with a tablet computer which was loaded with colorful pictures that come alive when you poke them. He thought my storybook was like that.
Sorry, kid. This book is not part of your high-tech world. It’s an outdated, lifeless thing. An antique, like your grandfather. Well, I may be old, but I’m not hopelessly challenged, digitally speaking. I edit video and produce audio. I use mobile payment. I’ve even built websites.
There’s one notable gap in my new-media experience, however: I’ve spent little time in front of a camera, since I have a face made for radio. But that didn’t stop China Daily from asking me last week to share a personal story for a video project about the integration of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province.
Anyway, grandpa is now an internet star — two minutes of fame! I promise not to let it go to my head. But I will make sure my 2-year-old grandson sees it on his tablet.
28. What do the underlined words “hit home for me” mean in paragraph 2?
A. Provided shelter for me. B. Became very clear to me.
C. Took the pressure off me. D. Worked quite well on me.
29. Why did the kid poke the storybook?
A. He took it for a tablet computer. B. He disliked the colorful pictures.
C. He was angry with his grandpa. D. He wanted to read it by himself.
30. What does the author think of himself?
A. Socially ambitious. B. Physically attractive.
C. Financially independent. D. Digitally competent.
31. What can we learn about the author as a journalist?
A. He lacks experience in his job. B. He seldom appears on television.
C. He manages a video department. D. He often interviews internet stars.
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. D 31. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者曾经是一名记者,在春节期间,作者给孙子拿了一本儿童读物,孙子却以为是平板电脑,不停地戳书。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“We journalists live in a new age of storytelling, with many new multimedia tools. Many young people don’t even realize it’s new. For them, it’s just normal.”以及画线词后文“as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday.”可知,作者是记者,生活在一个讲故事的新时代,有许多新的多媒体工具。许多年轻人甚至没有意识到它是新的。对他们来说,这很正常。而这在春节假期,作者和两岁的孙子坐在沙发上,尤其清楚认识到了这一点。故画线词意思是“我很清楚”。故选B。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“He was actually a stranger to books. His father frequently amused the boy with a tablet computer which was loaded with colorful pictures that come alive when you poke them. He thought my storybook was like that.(事实上,他对书本并不熟悉。他的父亲经常用一台装有彩色图片的平板电脑逗他开心,当你戳它们的时候,这些图片就会变得栩栩如生。他认为我的故事书就是那样的)”可知,那孩子戳故事书是因为他把它当成了平板电脑。故选A。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中“Well, I may be old, but I’m not hopelessly challenged, digitally speaking. I edit video and produce audio. I use mobile payment. I’ve even built websites. (我可能老了,但从数字角度来说,我还没有毫无希望的挑战。我编辑视频,制作音频。我用移动支付。我甚至建立了网站)”可知,作者认为自己懂数码技术。故选D。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“There’s one notable gap in my new-media experience, however: I’ve spent little time in front of a camera, since I have a face made for radio.(然而,在我的新媒体体验中有一个明显的差距:我很少在镜头前呆着,因为我的脸是为电台而生的)”可知,作者作为记者他很少上电视。故选B。
D
Hey,you—look up! Our iPhone addictions(瘾)are destroying public space and damaging the normal social communication. The host collects phones at the door of the dinner party. At a law firm,partners keep a“no-mobile phone”policy at meetings. Each day,a good number of people gather outside NewYork’s high schools, offering, for a small price, to store students’ mobile phones during the day. In public, it’s hard to think of a place beyond the darkness of the movie theater where phone use isn’t allowed. In truly public space-on sidewalks,in parks,on buses and on trains—we move with the face down, our phones shine like flashlights,
Consider the case of a recent murder on a San Francisco train. On Sept.23,in a crowded car, a man pulled a gun from his jacket. He raised the gun,pointing it across the aisle. He drew it out several more times, once using the hand holding the gun to wipe his nose. Dozens of passengers stood and sat just feet away—but none reacted. Their eyes,focused on smartphones, didn’t lift until the gunman fired a bulletin into the back of a San Francisco State student getting off the train.
There are thousands of similar stories that together sound the alarm for a new understanding of public space. In Japan,more than a dozen people fall off railway platforms while looking at their phones each year. Some experts there have called for bans on texting. Besides,many train station notices remind people to look where they are going,and even mobile phone companies have begun to educate users about the dangers of looking at a phone while walking.
The development of information technology is separating us from our surroundings. The urban theorist Malcolm McCullough writes“Closed in cars, often in headphones,seldom in places where they can communicate in person seldom choosing face-to-face meetings,modern citzens escaped from public life.
32. The author wrote Paragraph2 to_______.
A. explain how the mobile phone destroyed public places
B. list the examples of using mobile phones
C. tell us to use mobile phones in public places
D. make us believe the great changes of using mobil ephones
33. What can we conclude from the murder case on a SanFrancisco train?
A. The murder didn’t shoot the passengers on the train.
B. Many people were aware of the murderer before he shot.
C. It is no good ignoring other people around when taking trains.
D. Smartphone addictions have changed the normal social communication.
34. How did the author develop the passage?
A. Giving examples.
B. Listing numbers.
C. Comparing facts.
D. Making conclusions.
35. The author in the last paragraph suggested_______.
A. smartphones have taken little people’s attention
B. the development of information technology has a good effect on people
C. too much use of smartphones may do harm to people’s communication
D. smartphones may change modern people’s life completely
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. A 35. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章通过举例子智能手机成瘾已经改变了正常的社交交流。
32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中Dozens of passengers stood and sat just feet away—but none reacted. Their eyes,focused on smartphones, didn’t lift until the gunman fired a bulletin into the back of a San Francisco State student getting off the train.“几十名乘客在离他们只有几英尺远的地方站着或坐着,但没有人反应。他们的眼睛一直盯着智能手机,直到枪手向一名下火车的旧金山州立大学学生的后背开枪,他们才抬起头来。”由此可知,作者写第二段是为了来解释手机是如何破坏公共场所的。故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中Our iPhone addictions(瘾)are destroying public space and damaging the normal social communication.“我们对iPhone的沉迷正在破坏公共空间,破坏正常的社会交流。”由此可知,我们能从旧金山火车上的凶杀案中得出“智能手机成瘾已经改变了正常的社交交流。”的结论。故选D。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段第一句Consider the case of a recent murder on a San Francisco train. On Sept.23,in a crowded car, a man pulled a gun from his jacket.“以最近发生在旧金山火车上的一起谋杀案为例。9月23日,在一辆拥挤的汽车里,一名男子从夹克里掏出一把枪。”和第三段中There are thousands of similar stories that together sound the alarm for a new understanding of public space. In Japan,more than a dozen people fall off railway platforms while looking at their phones each year.“有成千上万的类似的故事一起敲响了对公共空间新理解的警钟。在日本,每年都有十几个人在看手机的时候从火车站台上掉下来。”由此可知,这篇文章是通过举例子进行情节发展的。故选A。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段The development of information technology is separating us from our surroundings. The urban theorist Malcolm McCullough writes“Closed in cars, often in headphones,seldom in places where they can communicate in person seldom choosing face-to-face meetings,moden citzens escaped from public life.“信息技术的发展使我们与周围的环境分离开来。城市理论家马尔科姆·麦卡洛写道:“现代城市人关在车里,经常戴着耳机,很少在可以面对面交流的地方很少选择面对面的会议,他们逃离了公共生活。”由此可知,作者在最后一段表明过多使用智能手机可能会对人们的交流造成伤害。故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
I experienced years of loneliness as a child. ___36___ His friends teased him about babysitting his sister and his interests were far different from mine. With no other kids of my age in the neighborhood, I had to spend hours by myself.
A bright spot for me turned out to be reading. My love of the written word began early as my mother read to me every evening. ___37___ I started reading books on my own before age 5 and my mother took me to the public library once a week to borrow several books. I quickly graduated from typical children’s books to ones with fewer pictures and longer chapters. Reading opened new worlds to me. ___38___
My mother also encouraged me to make what I wanted. I tried making toy cars with cardboard boxes and constructing buildings from leftover cardboard and bits of wood my father gave me. When my mother saw my creations, she told me how creative my designs were. ___39___ I learned a lot about how to extend the life of objects and transform them into something new and useful. It was a trait(特点) others found helpful, and I soon had friends who wanted to make things with me.
___40___My parents made it a point for their two kids to spend time outside, no matter the weather or season. My brother, of course, raced off to be with his friends, while I had plenty to do myself. There was making leaf houses in autumn, ice skating in winter, and so much more. They’re all memories I treasure today.
A I wasn't alone any longer.
B. I enjoyed reading stories aloud.
C. I was invited to play with another kid.
D. I loved the colorful photographs in the books.
E. Another habit I formed early was being outdoors.
F. Thus, I began my lifelong interest in making things.
G. My older brother couldn’t be bothered to play with me.
【答案】36. G 37. D 38. A 39. F 40. E
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者养成几个生活习惯的原因。
【36题详解】
设空在段中,应是承前启后句。根据后文“His friends teased him about babysitting his sister and his interests were far different from mine”可知,设空句应提及“his”的身份,即G项中的“My elder brother”,且G项“我哥哥懒得和我一起玩”在此起到了承上启下的作用。故选G项。故选G项。
【37题详解】
根据前句提到“我对文字的爱始于母亲每天晚上给我读故事的时候”可知,D项“我喜欢书中的彩色照片”和上句构成进一步说明。同时D项中的“书”指代上句提到的母亲每天给我读故事的书。D项切题。故选D项。
【38题详解】
根据前句提到“阅读为我打开了新世界”可知,A项“我不在孤独”和上句构成了因果关系。A项切题。故选A项。
【39题详解】
根据前句“当我的母亲看到我的创作时,她说我的设计很有创意”可知,F项“于是,我开始对制造东西产生了长久的兴趣”和上句构成因果关系,我正是在听了母亲那句话后才开始了对制造东西产生兴趣。F项切题。故选F项。
【40题详解】
根据后句“无论天气或季节,我的父母都要让他们的两个孩子花时间在户外”可知,E项“我很早养成的另一个习惯是去户外”和前句表示因果逻辑。作者有去户外的习惯是因为后句提到的父母的影响。E项切题。故选E项。

Strange Footprints in the Snow
Tom woke up and looked around. For a moment, he wasn’t sure where he was. Then he remembered. He and his sister, Lucy, were visiting Aunt Gwen. Yesterday they spent seven hours helping Aunt Gwen clean her basement. Today they would have time to play.
He looked out of the window. Fresh snow covered the ground. He could hardly wait to go outside. Tom got dressed and hurried downstairs to the kitchen.
“Hi, sleepyhead(贪睡者),” said Aunt Gwen. “Lucy has already eaten her breakfast. She’s outside.”
“That’s where I’m going as soon as I finish breakfast,” Tom said.
A short time later, he zipped up(拉上拉链)his coat, put on his boots, and walked out of the front door. The sun made the snow sparkle. He looked around. He didn’t see his sister, but he saw something else. There were strange footprints left in the snow across Aunt Gwen’s yard.
“They’re far too big to be Lucy’s. They look like they belong to a dinosaur,” Tom said. Then he added, “But that’s silly. Dinosaurs are not around anymore.”
He looked closer: The footprints were the shape of a very large oval(椭圆)with a stem. “Maybe they belong to an elephant or a hippo that escaped from the zoo,” he thought. He held his breath and listened. He didn’t hear anything.
He remembered a book he’d seen earlier on Aunt Gwen’s shelf. It was a book about animal tracks. He dashed inside to get it. The book had pictures of animals and the tracks they made. He turned the pages one by one, but none of the photos looked like the footprints in Aunt Gwen’s yard.
He stared at those footprints again. An animal that made such big tracks would have to be heavy. Its tracks should sink far down into the snow. Yet these footprints seemed to skim across(掠过)the top.
How can that be? He wondered.
Tom noticed something else. The tracks never left Aunt Gwen’s yard. Instead, they turned and went around the house. “Maybe the animal is still here,” he whispered.
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。
Though a little scared, Tom made up his mind to find the animal.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
It turned out that his sister was making the sounds.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Though a little scared, Tom made up his mind to find the animal. Quietly, he began following the footprints. He sneaked forward so that the animal wasn’t scared away. There was nothing in sight except the strange footprints. Suddenly, there seemed to be some strange sounds ahead. Tom stopped and listened carefully. It came from the backyard, Thrilled, mixed with a feeling of a little fright, he quickened his pace! The sounds became clearer and clearer. Holding his breath, Tom peeked around the corner of the house.
It turned out that his sister was making the sounds. She had something worn on both feet. She was walking on the snow back and forth happily. Noticing her brother, Lucy waved excitedly, “See what I found in Aunt Gwen’s basement? They are old-fashioned snow shoes. Aunt Gwen said the shape helped walk steadily on the snow. And that is true!” Tom then laughed, “No wonder I couldn’t find those footprints in Aunt Gwen’s book.” There was no page for a snowshoeing sister.
