The prize is meant to encourage new ideas and rapid action to help protect the planet. Below are parts of this year’s prize-winning projects in each category. Protect and Restore Nature Kheyti won the prize for protecting and restoring nature with its “Greenhouse-in-a-box” idea. Kheyti is already working with 1, 000 farmers across India, which is one of the most climate-affected countries in the world. The company says the greenhouses allow farmers to use 90% less water and produce seven times as much food. Kheyti hopes to get its greenhouses to 50,000 farmers by 2027. Clean Our Air Charlot Magayi won the prize for cleaning the air. Ms. Magayi developed a stove (炉子) that uses a fuel that’s cheaper and pollutes far less than charcoal stoves. Currently, over 200,000 of her Clean Stoves are being used in Kenya. Build a Waste-Free World A London-based company called Notpla(for “Not Plastic”)won the prize for building a waste-free world. They’ve created a plastic substitute(替代品)from plants found in the ocean. Unlike most plastic, their products break down naturally with no microplastics. Notpla believes their products can help end the plastic pollution that’s filling landfills and polluting oceans. Fix Our Climate The Earthshot Prize for working toward fixing our climate went to a company called 44.01 from Oman. 44.01 has come up with a way to turn polluting carbon dioxide(CO2)into a rock called peridotite. Once the CO2 has been turned into rock, it can no longer be released into the atmosphere again. The method that 44.01 uses is fast, cheap and permanent. 1. What is the aim of the Earthshot Prize? A. To offer practical advice on global warming. B. To find solutions to the environmental problems. C. To develop a strategic partnership with all parties. D. To encourage literary creations of the British people. 2. Where are Kheyti’s greenhouses widely used? A. In India. B. In Kenya. C. In the UK. D. In Oman. 3. What do Charlot Magayi and 44.01 have in common? A. They want to build a waste-free world. B. Their projects are directly good for farmers. C. Their achievements benefit the air cleaning. D. They use plants from the ocean in their products. B Cruz Genet, 11, and Anthony Skopick, 10, couldn’t agree. Were the birds out on the ice ducks or geese? So on a cold January evening last year, the two friends ventured (冒险) onto the frozen pond near their homes in Frankfort, Illinois, to get a better look. First, they threw a rock onto the ice to test it, Cruz told NBC 5 Chicago. “Then we stepped on it.” Convinced the ice would hold their weight, Anthony took a few steps, but then he fell through the seemingly frozen surface. Cruz rushed to help his panicked friend. However, the pond swallowed him, too. Cruz managed to lift himself out of the extremely cold water and onto a more solid section. He then gingerly worked his way toward Anthony. But the ice didn’t hold, and he fell in again. This ime, he couldn’t get out. The boys were up to their necks in icy water and quickly losing feeling. Any chance of their freeing themselves was slipping away. Cruz was sure that he was going to die. Anthony’s older sister had seen the boys fall through the ice and started screaming, wishing someone to save them. John Lavin, a neighbor driving nearby on his way to the grocery store, heard her. He quickly pulled over. Seeing the boys, he grabbed (抓住) a nearby buoy (救生圈), kicked off his shoes, and ran into the cold water, struggling his way through the ice. Lavin made his way to Cruz and Anthony and pulled them back to land. The boys were taken to the hospital where doctors discovered that their five- minute stay in the water had lowered their body temperature nearly ten degrees. Fortunately, they have fully recovered, though they are still a little amazed by their fearless neighbor. “Just to think,” says Cruz, “if he hadn’t been there, I could have died.” 4. Why did the boys venture onto the frozen pond? A. To have a better look at the frozen pond. B. To catch the birds in the pond with rocks. C. To find out what the birds on the ice were. D. To test the thickness of the ice in the pond. 5. What does the underlined word “gingerly” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Casually. B. Proudly. C. Firmly. D. Cautiously. 6. What drew John Lavin’s attention to the boys? A. Anthony’s older sister’s cry for help. B. Cruz’s loud and frightening scream. C. Their shoes along the nearby pond. D. Their neighbors’ pulling them back. 7. Which of the following words can best describe John Lavin? A. Hard-working and helpful. B. Warm-hearted and courageous. C. Curious and selfless. D. Active and generous. C A recent study published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society suggests that Leonardo da Vinci was more experimental with his well-known “Mona Lisa” than previously thought and was likely the creator of a technique seen in works used a century later. A team of scientists in France and Britain has detected a rare mineral compound (矿物化合物), plumbonacrite, within the piece. Plumbonacrite forms when lead oxides (铅氧化物) combine with oil. Mixing these two substances is the technique that later artists like Rembrandt used to help the paint dry, according to the study. Detecting the rare compound in the “Mona Lisa” suggested that Leonardo could have been the original user of this approach, said Gilles Wallez, an author of the study. “Everything that comes from Leonardo is very interesting, because he had lots of ideas, and he was an experimenter, attempting to improve the knowledge of his time,” Wallez said, “Each time you discovered something in his processes, you discovered that he was clearly ahead of his time.” The “Mona Lisa”, like many other paintings from the 16th century, was created on a piece of wood that required a thick base layer. The researchers believed that Leonardo had made his mixture of lead oxide powder with linseed oil to produce the thick coat of paint needed for the first layer, while unknowingly creating the rare compound. Nowadays, researchers aren’t allowed to take samples from the masterpiece, which resides at the Louvre in Paris and is protected behind glass. Using a microsample that had been taken from an area of the artwork just behind the frame, however, scientists were able to analyze the paint by using a high-tech machine. “These samples have a very high cultural value,” Wallez said. “You can’t afford to take big samples on a painting.” 8. Why is Rembrandt mentioned in paragraph 2? A. To demonstrate his unique talent for painting. B. To explain how he used the technique correctly. C. To stress what made him different from other painters. D. To show the technique was useful for drying the paint. 9. What did Wallez think of Leonardo da Vinci? A. Independent. B. Strict. C. Pioneering. D. Friendly. 10. How did researchers think Leonardo da Vinci created the rare compound? A. By accident. B. With other painters’ help. C. By reading many books. D. Through various attempts. 11. What can be learned about the “Mona Lisa” from the last paragraph? A. It didn’t contain plumbonacrite. B. Analyzing its paint is invaluable but costly. C. It was created in the 17th century. D. Taking its samples is an easy task now. D Contrary to “popular opinion”, the scientific pursuit for knowledge is not a predictable process. To make new discoveries, researchers need the freedom to be creative, fail, and learn by chance. This aspect is similar to art. This is why Wageningen scientists look to artists for inspiration and exchange ideas about how to increase creative freedom. “Science and art are two different ways to make something understandable. They both provide a perspective on reality,” says Biochemistry Professor Dolf Weijers. “From the outside, the research process looks very formal and the artistic process looks somewhat messy. But the scientific process can also unfold in an unpredictable way.” “Scientists can learn a lot from artists,” says Weijers. “Association and creativity are central to art. Those aspects require more attention in science as the creative process is the key of science.” “As a scientist, you use different methods, but it is equally about how you visualize your understandings of reality and the connections between them. This is sometimes just as visual as art,” says Weijers. One example is a recent special project in which Weijers and his colleague Joris Sprakel, professor of Physical Chemistry and Soft Matter, measured the forces that act on plant cells. A molecular (分子的) sensor was used to visualize the different forces. They showed the results in colorful images, each representing a different force. What science and art also have in common is that they are topics of discussion in society. There are people who say that they do not value art and people who mistrust science. Weijers says, “It often creates the wrong impression because only the results of scientific studies are presented, and people do not have any insight into the process leading to discovery. As a scientist, you are doubted if you say something that is different a few years later. Then you are viewed as unreliable. But what is often poorly understood is that there are no final results in science. What we scientists can achieve in the coming period is to provide more chances for people to focus on the process. Personally, I think that the connection with art can help to lead the focus on the process than the result.” 12. What does Dolf Weijers think of science process? A. It is always serious. B. It can’t be accidental. C. It doesn’t allow failures. D. It can be unexpected. 13. What does the underlined sentence “This is sometimes just as visual as art” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Visualizing is a must for science. B. Science can be visualized like art. C. Science should be understood by visualizing. D. Visualizing is as easy in science as in art. 14. Why do common people mistrust science in Dolf Weijers’ opinion? A. Scientists usually draw unreliable conclusions. B. Scientists don’t use visualizing to show the results. C. The scientific process is unknown to them. D. The scientific results are complex for the public. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Differences Between Science and Art B. Similarities Between Science and Art C. Scientists and Artists Contribute to the World D. Science and Art Are Tools to Understand the World 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人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Whether you’re saving up for something special or just trying to get your finances in better shape, reducing unnecessary expenses is always worthwhile. ____16____.

She had a few moments to reflect as the ceremony continued. Ten minutes later, she knew what to do. She returned to the platform and apologized for interrupting. Then she made an announcement that shocked the crowd. She refused the scholarship and requested that the funds instead be awarded to a student who needed it more than she did. “I am very grateful for this, but I also know that I am not the one who needs this the most,” Verda said. Her generous gesture shocked the audience, made up of her fellow classmates, their families and faculty (全体教员) members. Her mother, Rosemary, loudly cheered her daughter on from the audience. Verda is planning on going to Harvard University in the fall as a pre-med (医学院预科的) student. The straight-A honor student has already been awarded a full scholarship for her Ivy League college education. However, she could have used her school’s scholarship to help pay for additional expenses such as books, computers and living expenses. Verda knew, though, just how important a college scholarship is to a student whose family is financially struggling. Her mother earned her bachelor’s degree from a local community college at age 47, while raising her four children and holding down two jobs to support her family. Her mother’s determination to get an education despite her financial hardship inspired the young woman’s selfless decision. She wanted the funds to go to a student pursuing a community college degree, just as her mother once had. That day, Rosemary took pride in her daughter. “Now I’m 100% sure she is ready to go into the world on her own,” she said. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Verda also admired her mother and kept in mind what her mother taught her. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The young woman expressed no regrets over her decision to give away the money. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 高二英语 第一部分 听 力( 共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题;每小题1. 5分. 满分7. 5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇应用文。英国威廉王子宣布今年“为地球奋斗奖”的获奖者本文主要介绍了今年各类别获奖项目的部分内容。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The prize is meant to encourage new ideas and rapid action to help protect the planet.(该奖旨在鼓励新的想法和快速行动，以帮助保护地球。)”，以及下文的各个小标题可知，“为地球奋斗奖”的目的是找到方法保护地球。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Protect and Restore Nature下的“Kheyti is already working with 1, 000 farmers across India, which is one of the most climate-affected countries in the world. (Kheyti已经与印度的1,000名农民合作，印度是世界上受气候影响最严重的国家之一。)”可知，Kheyti的温室项目在印度各地都有进行。故选A项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Clean Our Air的“Charlot Magayi won the prize for cleaning the air. Ms. Magayi developed a stove (炉子) that uses a fuel that’s cheaper and pollutes far less than charcoal stoves. Currently, over 200,000 of her Clean Stoves are being used in Kenya.(查洛特·马盖赢得了清洁空气奖。马盖发明了一种使用比木炭炉更便宜且污染更少的燃料的炉子。目前，肯尼亚已有超过20万个她的清洁炉正在使用)”，Fix Our Climate的“The Earthshot Prize for working toward fixing our climate went to a company called 44.01 from Oman. 44.01 has come up with a way to turn polluting carbon dioxide(CO2)into a rock called peridotite.(为解决气候问题做出贡献的‘为地球奋斗奖’奖颁给了44.01公司。44.01公司提出了一种将污染的二氧化碳转化为一种名为橄榄石的岩石的方法。)”可知，Charlot Magayi和44.01的共同之处是他们的成就都有利于空气净化，因此而得奖。故选C项。 B Cruz Genet, 11, and Anthony Skopick, 10, couldn’t agree. Were the birds out on the ice ducks or geese? So on a cold January evening last year, the two friends ventured (冒险) onto the frozen pond near their homes in Frankfort, Illinois, to get a better look.

He then gingerly worked his way toward Anthony. But the ice didn’t hold, and he fell in again. This ime, he couldn’t get out. The boys were up to their necks in icy water and quickly losing feeling. Any chance of their freeing themselves was slipping away. Cruz was sure that he was going to die. Anthony’s older sister had seen the boys fall through the ice and started screaming, wishing someone to save them. John Lavin, a neighbor driving nearby on his way to the grocery store, heard her. He quickly pulled over. Seeing the boys, he grabbed (抓住) a nearby buoy (救生圈), kicked off his shoes, and ran into the cold water, struggling his way through the ice. Lavin made his way to Cruz and Anthony and pulled them back to land. The boys were taken to the hospital, where doctors discovered that their five- minute stay in the water had lowered their body temperature nearly ten degrees. Fortunately, they have fully recovered, though they are still a little amazed by their fearless neighbor. “Just to think,” says Cruz, “if he hadn’t been there, I could have died.” 4. Why did the boys venture onto the frozen pond? A. To have a better look at the frozen pond. B. To catch the birds in the pond with rocks. C. To find out what the birds on the ice were. D. To test the thickness of the ice in the pond. 5. What does the underlined word “gingerly” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Casually. B. Proudly. C. Firmly. D. Cautiously. 6. What drew John Lavin’s attention to the boys? A. Anthony’s older sister’s cry for help. B. Cruz’s loud and frightening scream. C. Their shoes along the nearby pond. D. Their neighbors’ pulling them back. 7. Which of the following words can best describe John Lavin? A. Hard-working and helpful. B. Warm-hearted and courageous. C. Curious and selfless. D. Active and generous. 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【分析】本文是记叙文。文章讲述了一个英勇的救援者。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中Were the birds out on the ice ducks or geese? So on a cold January evening last year, the two friends ventured (冒险) onto the frozen pond near their homes in Frankfort, Illinois, to get a better look.“是鸭子还是鹅?因此，在去年1月一个寒冷的晚上，这两位朋友冒险来到他们位于伊利诺斯州法兰克福的家附近结冰的池塘，想要看得更清楚一些。”由此可知，男孩们之所以冒险到结冰的池塘里去是为了去发现冰上是什么鸟。故选C。 【5题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段中Cruz managed to lift himself out of the extremely cold water and onto a more solid section.“克鲁兹成功地从极冷的水中爬了起来，爬到了一个更坚固的地方。”再根据划线词下文But the ice didn’t hold, and he fell in again. This ime, he couldn’t get out.“但是冰不牢固，他又掉了下去。这下，他出不去了。”由此推知，他“小心谨慎地”在冰上走。划线词的意思是“小心谨慎地”。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段Anthony’s older sister had seen the boys fall through the ice and started screaming, wishing someone to save them.“安东尼的姐姐看到两个孩子从冰上摔了下去，开始尖叫，希望有人来救他们。”由此可知，安东尼的姐姐在呼救声引起了约翰·拉文对男孩们的注意。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段John Lavin, a neighbor driving nearby on his way to the grocery store, heard her. He quickly pulled over. Seeing the boys, he grabbed (抓住) a nearby buoy (救生圈), kicked off his shoes, and ran into the cold water, struggling his way through the ice. Lavin made his way to Cruz and Anthony and pulled them back to land.“约翰拉文(John Lavin)是开车去杂货店的邻居，他听到了她的声音。他迅速靠边停车。看到孩子们，他抓起附近的一个浮标，踢掉鞋子，跳进冰冷的水中，在冰上挣扎着前进。拉文向科鲁兹和安东尼走去，把他们从水里拉到岸上。”由此可知，John Lavin是一个热心肠和勇敢的人。故选B。 【点睛】推理判断题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上，做出一定的推理判断，从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理判断题所涉及的内容可能是文中的某一句话，也可能是某几句话，所以，推理题的答案只能是根据原文表面文字信息一步推出的答案：即对原文某一句话或某几句话所作的同义改写或综合。推理判断题的题干中通常含有infer, suggest, imply, conclude indicate等标志性词语。本题第3小题，根据第四段Anthony’s older sister had seen the boys fall through the ice and started screaming, wishing someone to save them.“安东尼的姐姐看到两个孩子从冰上摔了下去，开始尖叫，希望有人来救他们。”由此可知，安东尼的姐姐在呼救声引起了约翰·拉文对男孩们的注意。故选A。 C A recent study published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society suggests that Leonardo da Vinci was more experimental with his well-known “Mona Lisa” than previously thought and was likely the creator of a technique seen in works used a century later. A team of scientists in France and Britain has detected a rare mineral compound (矿物化合物), plumbonacrite, within the piece. Plumbonacrite forms when lead oxides (铅氧化物) combine with oil. Mixing these two substances is the technique that later artists like Rembrandt used to help the paint dry, according to the study. Detecting the rare compound in the “Mona Lisa” suggested that Leonardo could have been the original user of this approach, said Gilles Wallez, an author of the study. “Everything that comes from Leonardo is very interesting, because he had lots of ideas, and he was an experimenter, attempting to improve the knowledge of his time,” Wallez said, “Each time you discovered something in his processes, you discovered that he was clearly ahead of his time.” The “Mona Lisa”, like many other paintings from the 16th century, was created on a piece of wood that required a thick base layer. The researchers believed that Leonardo had made his mixture of lead oxide powder with linseed oil to produce the thick coat of paint needed for the first layer, while unknowingly creating the rare compound. Nowadays, researchers aren’t allowed to take samples from the masterpiece, which resides at the Louvre in Paris and is protected behind glass. Using a microsample that had been taken from an area of the artwork just behind the frame, however, scientists were able to analyze the paint by using a high-tech machine. “These samples have a very high cultural value,” Wallez said. “You can’t afford to take big samples on a painting.” 8. Why is Rembrandt mentioned in paragraph 2? A. To demonstrate his unique talent for painting. B. To explain how he used the technique correctly. C. To stress what made him different from other painters. D. To show the technique was useful for drying the paint. 9. What did Wallez think of Leonardo da Vinci? A. Independent. B. Strict. C. Pioneering. D. Friendly. 10. How did researchers think Leonardo da Vinci created the rare compound? A. By accident. B. With other painters’ help. C. By reading many books. D. Through various attempts. 11. What can be learned about the “Mona Lisa” from the last paragraph? A. It didn’t contain plumbonacrite. B. Analyzing its paint is invaluable but costly. C. It was created in the 17th century. D. Taking its samples is an easy task now. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，一项研究表明，达·芬奇在创作著名的《蒙娜丽莎》时，比人们之前认为的更具实验性，而且很可能是一个世纪后的作品中使用的一种技巧的创造者。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Mixing these two substances is the technique that later artists like Rembrandt used to help the paint dry, according to the study.(根据这项研究，混合这两种物质是Rembrandt等后来的艺术家用来帮助颜料干燥的技术)”可知，作者提及Rembrandt是为了表明这种技巧，即把氧化铅与油混合在一起使用，能让颜料变干。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“‘Everything that comes from Leonardo is very interesting, because he had lots of ideas, and he was an experimenter, attempting to improve the knowledge of his time,’ Wallez said, ‘Each time you discovered something in his processes, you discovered that he was clearly ahead of his time.’(‘来自达·芬奇的一切都非常有趣，因为他有很多想法，他是一个实验者，试图提高他那个时代的知识，’Wallez说，‘每次你在他的过程中发现一些东西，你就会发现他明显领先于他的时代。’)”可推断，Wallez认为达·芬奇对于他所在的时代具有开拓性、先驱性。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The researchers believed that Leonardo had made his mixture of lead oxide powder with linseed oil to produce the thick coat of paint needed for the first layer, while unknowingly creating the rare compound.(研究人员认为，达·芬奇将氧化铅粉和亚麻籽油混合在一起，制作了第一层所需的厚层颜料，而他却在不知不觉中创造了这种罕见的化合物)”可知，研究人员认为达·芬奇是偶然地创造了这种罕见的化合物。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“…scientists were able to analyze the paint by using a high-tech machine. ‘These samples have a very high cultural value,’ Wallez said. ‘You can’t afford to take big samples on a painting.’(科学家们利用从画框后面的艺术品区域采集的显微样本，通过使用高科技机器分析了颜料。‘这些样本具有很高的文化价值，’Wallez说。‘你无法承担从一幅画上取下大样本的后果。’)”可推断，分析《蒙娜丽莎》这幅画的颜料是有价值的，但代价很高。故选B。 D Contrary to “popular opinion”, the scientific pursuit for knowledge is not a predictable process. To make new discoveries, researchers need the freedom to be creative, fail, and learn by chance. This aspect is similar to art. This is why Wageningen scientists look to artists for inspiration and exchange ideas about how to increase creative freedom. “Science and art are two different ways to make something understandable. They both provide a perspective on reality,” says Biochemistry Professor Dolf Weijers. “From the outside, the research process looks very formal and the artistic process looks somewhat messy. But the scientific process can also unfold in an unpredictable way.” “Scientists can learn a lot from artists,” says Weijers. “Association and creativity are central to art. Those aspects require more attention in science as the creative process is the key of science.” “As a scientist, you use different methods, but it is equally about how you visualize your understandings of reality and the connections between them. This is sometimes just as visual as art,” says Weijers. One example is a recent special project in which Weijers and his colleague Joris Sprakel, professor of Physical Chemistry and Soft Matter, measured the forces that act on plant cells. A molecular (分子的) sensor was used to visualize the different forces. They showed the results in colorful images, each representing a different force. What science and art also have in common is that they are topics of discussion in society. There are people who say that they do not value art and people who mistrust science. Weijers says, “It often creates the wrong impression because only the results of scientific studies are presented, and people do not have any insight into the process leading to discovery. As a scientist, you are doubted if you say something that is different a few years later. Then you are viewed as unreliable. But what is often poorly understood is that there are no final results in science. What we scientists can achieve in the coming period is to provide more chances for people to focus on the process. Personally, I think that the connection with art can help to lead the focus on the process than the result.” 12. What does Dolf Weijers think of science process? A. It is always serious. B. It can’t be accidental. C. It doesn’t allow failures. D. It can be unexpected. 13. What does the underlined sentence “This is sometimes just as visual as art” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Visualizing is a must for science. B. Science can be visualized like art. C. Science should be understood by visualizing. D. Visualizing is as easy in science as in art. 14. Why do common people mistrust science in Dolf Weijers’ opinion? A. Scientists usually draw unreliable conclusions. B. Scientists don’t use visualizing to show the results. C. The scientific process is unknown to them. D. The scientific results are complex for the public. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Differences Between Science and Art B. Similarities Between Science and Art C. Scientists and Artists Contribute to the World D. Science and Art Are Tools to Understand the World 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章论述了艺术创作和科学研究之间的关系。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第二段的“But the scientific process can also unfold in an unpredictable way.(但科学过程也可能以一种不可预测的方式展开)”可知，Dolf Weijers认为科学过程是不可预料的。故选D。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线句前“‘As a scientist, you use different methods, but it is equally about how you visualize your understandings of reality and the connections between them.’(作为一名科学家，你使用不同的方法，但同样重要的是你如何将你对现实的理解以及它们之间的联系可视化)”可知，不管使用什么方法，重要的是要将科学家对现实的理解以及它们之间的联系可视化。由此猜测，画线句句意为“科学能够像艺术一样视觉化”。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的“It often creates the wrong impression because only the results of scientific studies are presented, and people do not have any insight into the process leading to discovery.(它往往会造成错误的印象，因为只有科学研究的结果被呈现出来，而人们对导致发现的过程没有任何见解)”可知，Dolf Weijers认为普通大众不了解科学过程，所以他们通常不信任科学研究。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。 通读全文，并结合第一段的“To make new discoveries, researchers need the freedom to be creative, fail, and learn by chance. This aspect is similar to art. This is why Wageningen scientists look to artists for inspiration and exchange ideas about how to increase creative freedom.(为了做出新的发现，研究人员需要有创造性、失败和偶然学习的自由。这方面与艺术相似。这就是为什么瓦赫宁根的科学家们向艺术家寻求灵感，并就如何增加创作自由交换想法)”可知，本文主要论述了科学研究与艺术创作之间的相似之处。因此B项“科学和艺术的相似之处”可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选B。 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人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Whether you’re saving up for something special or just trying to get your finances in better shape, reducing unnecessary expenses is always worthwhile. ____16____.

Generally speaking, preparing your own meals can save 20% or more on food costs 【答案】16. E 17. G 18. C 19. B 20. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍一些减少不必要开支的方法。 【16题详解】 根据空前“Whether you’re saving up for something special or just trying to get your finances in better shape, reducing unnecessary expenses is always worthwhile. (无论你是在为一些特别的东西存钱，还是只是想让你的财务状况更好，减少不必要的开支总是值得的。)”及文章正文的各个小标题，可知设空处是承接下文，所以写减少开支的方法，故E项“本文列出了一系列生活中削减成本的有用方法”符合题意。故选E。 【17题详解】 根据本段小标题“Cook for yourself instead of eating out. (自己做饭而不是出去吃饭。)”及上文“Eating at a restaurant or getting takeout is much more expensive than making a meal at home. (在餐馆吃饭或叫外卖比在家做饭要贵得多。)”可知，设空处应该是关于自己做饭吃会省钱，故G项“总的来说，在家做饭可以节省20%或更多的就餐费用。”符合题意。故选G。 【18题详解】 根据空前“Spending $1 or $2 on bottled water or twice that much on a cup of coffee may not seem like much. (花1美元或2美元买瓶装水，或者花两倍的钱买一杯咖啡，可能看起来并不多。)”可推断下文应说的是积累多了就会有很多钱，故C项“但这可能很快就会多达每周20美元或更多。”符合题意。故选C。 【19题详解】 此处缺少小标题。根据本段内容“Always make a shopping list before you go to the store. The list gives you a clear idea of what you need and avoids unnecessary purchases—but only if you focus on getting just what’s on the list! Take a look around your kitchen to determine what you need before you go to the store, and do your best to stick to your list as you shop. (去商店之前一定要列一份购物清单。这个清单让你清楚地知道你需要什么，避免不必要的购买——但前提是你只关注清单上的东西!在你去商店之前，看看你的厨房，确定你需要什么，并且在你购物的时候尽量坚持你的清单。)”可知，本段主要是说去商店之前要列出购物清单，故B项“列出购物清单并按清单购物。”符合题意。故选B。 【20题详解】 根据空前“Add up how much you spend each month on fuel, parking and upkeep for your vehicle, and then compare that to public transportation costs. (算出你每个月在燃料、停车和车辆保养上的花费，然后将其与公共交通成本进行比较。)”可知，此处是把自己开车和公共交通两种方法进行比较，故F项“通过采用第二种方法，你在方方面面都可以节省不少钱”符合题意。故选F。 第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。 Sirine Jahangir has a rare condition that left her completely blind by the time she was 10 years old.

She had a few moments to reflect as the ceremony continued. Ten minutes later, she knew what to do. She returned to the platform and apologized for interrupting. Then she made an announcement that shocked the crowd. She refused the scholarship and requested that the funds instead be awarded to a student who needed it more than she did. “I am very grateful for this, but I also know that I am not the one who needs this the most,” Verda said. Her generous gesture shocked the audience, made up of her fellow classmates, their families and faculty (全体教员) members. Her mother, Rosemary, loudly cheered her daughter on from the audience. Verda is planning on going to Harvard University in the fall as a pre-med (医学院预科的) student. The straight-A honor student has already been awarded a full scholarship for her Ivy League college education. However, she could have used her school’s scholarship to help pay for additional expenses such as books, computers and living expenses. Verda knew, though, just how important a college scholarship is to a student whose family is financially struggling. Her mother earned her bachelor’s degree from a local community college at age 47, while raising her four children and holding down two jobs to support her family. Her mother’s determination to get an education despite her financial hardship inspired the young woman’s selfless decision. She wanted the funds to go to a student pursuing a community college degree, just as her mother once had. That day, Rosemary took pride in her daughter. “Now I’m 100% sure she is ready to go into the world on her own,” she said. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Verda also admired her mother and kept in mind what her mother taught her. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The young woman expressed no regrets over her decision to give away the money. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Verda also admired her mother and kept in mind what her mother taught her. Her mother always impressed the importance of having an education on her daughter. Verda was taught that education would offer her better opportunities. Her mother taught her that she should set up a goal for herself and try her best to seek it. In addition, she ought to have a kind heart and help those who need help. She never forgot the valuable life lessons. She struggled to work hard to achieve her dream and help more people as possible. The young woman expressed no regrets over her decision to give away the money. She said that she was excited to see the money could help those who needed help. And she wished that what she did could change their life. She said she was thankful that her mother could support her decision. She was happy that faced with the money, she had the strength to do that. She would finish her education on her own efforts. The headmaster had high praise for his student and thought Verda would be a woman who was going to change the world. 【解析】 【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述了一名高中学生Verda在毕业典礼上得知获得奖学金的消息后，发表了一项令观众震惊的声明。她拒绝了奖学金，并要求把这笔资金授予一个比她更需要这笔资金的学生。罗斯玛丽为她的女儿感到骄傲。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Verda也很钦佩她的母亲，并牢记着母亲教给她的东西。”可知，第一段可描写Verda从母亲那里所学到的。 ②由第二段首句内容“这位年轻女子对自己捐出这笔钱的决定并不后悔。”可知，第二段可描写Verda很欣慰地看到把奖金给了更需要的人，她的善举得到校长的称赞。 2.续写线索：母亲教——收获——努力——兴奋——感谢——表扬 3.词汇激活 行为类 （1）提供：offer/provide/supply （2）寻找：seek it /search for （3）表扬、高度评价：had high praise for /think highly of 情绪类 （1）感谢：thankful /show gratitude/ grateful （2）兴奋地：excited /thrilled 【点睛】[高分句型1] Her mother taught her that she should set up a goal for herself and try her best to seek it.（由连接词that引导的宾语从句作taught的宾语） [高分句型2] She said that she was excited to see the money could help those who needed help.（运用由that引导的宾语从句和关系代词who引导的限制性定语从句） [高分句型3] She struggled to work hard to achieve her dream and help more people as possible.（动词不定式作目的状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
