Ghunta’s family lived in a rural part of Western Jamaica. His mother often had to make tough choices about how to use their limited resources, including a decision to send his oldest sister to school. When Ghunta finally went to school, he couldn’t catch up on his reading skills. Not only had he been kept home from school as a child, but he had no access to books. By the time he entered the sixth grade, he could spell his name, but he still couldn’t make out words or read with understanding. When Ghunta was about 12, a young teacher decided to start a special reading program for struggling students. Ghunta was the first student to sign up. The teacher was incredibly kind to him. She did not ask anything of Ghunta, except that he worked hard and believed in himself. Under her guidance, Ghunta’s reading skills finally started to improve. He started to feel more confident. “She had left me with the gift of literacy,” he said, “and with the value as a human being.” His life took a new direction. He graduated from elementary school with a number of academic awards, including one for “most improved in reading”. He went on to college. Today, he is the author of two children’s books, about overcoming difficult experiences in childhood. He’s now working on his first full-length collection of poetry. Ghunta said, “I would love her to see the significant impact that she has made on my life, and the ways in which I have carried this memory of her — the hope and the light — with me and how it continues to be a source of joy.” 4. What caused Ghunta’s poor reading ability? A. Limited family resources. B. Early disinterest in reading. C. Lacking enough attention. D. Terrible memory. 5. Who inspired Ghunta greatly in his study? A. His mother. B. His sister. C. A young teacher. D. Other struggling students. 6. What does paragraph 5 mainly say about Ghunta? A. His future life. B. His achievements. C. His family background. D. His self-taught experience. 7. Which of the following can best describe Ghunta’s story? A. Reading helps people find happiness. B. Direction is the key to success. C. Poverty contributes to a person’s success. D. A teacher’s belief lights a student’s path. C Sensory-based food education given to 3 — 5-year-old children in the kindergarten increases their willingness to choose vegetables and fruit, according to a new study from the University of Eastern Finland. The researchers used the sensory-based food education method Sapere, which makes use of children’s natural way of relying on all of the five senses when learning new things. In the Sapere method, children are given an active role around food, and they are encouraged to share their sensory experiences. For example, kindergartens can introduce different vegetables and fruit to children. They can involve children in baking and cooking, and they can offer children opportunities to grow their own vegetables in the kindergarten backyard. Food-related themes can also be included in books and games. The researchers compared children in different kindergarten groups. Some were offered sensory-based food education, while others weren’t. Children were offered a snack buffet containing different vegetables and fruit to choose from, and the researchers took photos of their plates to analyse their willingness to choose and eat these food items. The findings show that sensory-based food education increased children’s willingness to choose vegetables and fruit, especially among children whose parents had a lower educational background. On average, children of lower-educated parents tend to eat fewer vegetables and fruit. This is how food education given in the kindergarten can help even out the dietary gap between families. “Another interesting finding is that the Sapere food education method also seems to improve the eating atmosphere in kindergarten groups. This encourages children to choose a more diverse selection on their plates,” explains Kähkönen, who is an expert on health. Positive and personal food-related experiences gained in the kindergarten can help adjust dietary preferences in a direction that is beneficial to health. Dietary preferences learned in early childhood often stick with a person all the way to adolescence and adulthood. 8. What is the main focus of the new study? A. The relation between diet and health. B. The impact of family on food choices. C. The role of kindergartens in food education. D. The effectiveness of Sapere in food education. 9. How did the researchers conduct their research? A. By making a comparison. B. By analyzing the previous cases. C. By interviewing some children. D. By collecting the relevant data. 10. What do the underlined words “even out” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Measure. B. Narrow. C. Analyze. D. Update. 11. What’s Kähkönen’s attitude towards the Sapere method? A. Doubtful. B. Opposed. C. Favorable. D. Unclear. D Red pandas live in high-altitude, mild forests where they prefer to be near water and have access to bamboo. They are mostly active at dusk and dawn, and they sleep during most of the day. They rely on the trees for shelter, to escape from predators (捕食者), and to sunbathe in the winter. About 98% of a red panda’s diet is bamboo. They need a lot of it to survive — around 2 kilograms each day. However, finding enough bamboo is difficult as the red panda’s habitat becomes smaller. When people move into the red panda’s area, they clear forests for housing and commercial development, farming and mining. Natural disasters such as landslides, floods; heavy snow and rainfall have also destroyed their habitats. Forest fires, invasive (侵入的) plant species, and issues with bamboo flowering (including the death of the plant) have similarly had effects on the red panda’s habitat. Species of bamboo are affected by forest fires and other environmental changes. As people move into the area, they often collect bamboo, leaving less for red pandas to eat. Although the red panda is endangered, steps are being made to save the species and its habitat. According to the IUCN, China has 46 protected areas, covering about 65% of the species’ habitat in the country. There are at least 19 protected areas in India, five in Bhutan and three in Myanmar. The Red Panda Network is a nonprofit organization that protects red pandas and their habitat. They work with local community groups to establish wildlife feeding centers, train forest protectors to raise awareness about red pandas, and work with villagers to establish protected areas. The WWF is also working to protect red pandas and their habitats. Because more than a third of the potential habitat is in Nepal, the group works with yak herders (牦牛牧民) and other groups there to lower their effect on the red panda’s habitat. 12. Why is it challenging for red pandas to find enough food? A. Bamboo is not good enough. B. They are not active hunters. C. Their habitats are becoming smaller. D. There is a lack of water in their habitat. 13. What do the data in paragraph 4 mainly show? A. Global efforts to protect red pandas. B. Serious situations faced by red pandas. C. India’s deep protection of rare wildlife. D. China’s advantage in keeping red pandas. 14. What does the Red Panda Network do to protect red pandas? A. Force yak herders to move away. B. Advocate people to adopt them. C. Cooperate with local experts to do research. D. Work with communities to build wildlife feeding centers. 15. What’s a suitable title for this text? A. The Key Points of Red Pandas’ Survival. B. The Influence of Natural Disasters on Bamboo. C. The Threat and Protection of Red Pandas. D. The Reason for the Disappearance of Bamboo. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 It’s easy to let things slide in midlife.

He used to live with his parents. He was frustrated with his parents blaming him for every little thing he did at home. While waiting for the interview, he was thinking, “Only if I succeed in today’s interview will I say goodbye to my parents’ house and settle down in the big city, which will let me avoid having to listen to my parents’ complaints about little things all the time.” He started thinking about little things his parents used to blame him for— How his mother asked him to make his bed after he woke up. If he left the bathroom door open, his mother would ask him to close the door and before that check if the tap was turned off properly. How his father asked him to switch off the fan or light switch before he left. How his mother always blamed him for not keeping things at the right places. While thinking about all these he thought, “Why should I listen to their words? Why should I do all these? If I get a job, I will definitely leave their home.” When looking around, Max saw that there were many candidates (应试者) sitting in that office. He saw that the light in the office was still on and it was ten o’clock in the morning. Remembering his father’s words, he got up and switched off the light. When he saw that water was falling from the water cooler kept at the office, he went to turn off the tap properly. It was time to go up to the second floor for the interview everyone went upstairs in turn. On the way up the stairs, a chair stood in the way, and the other candidates bypassed it, but Max removed it, set it aside, and walked to the second floor. Now, as Max waited outside, he saw the candidates in front of him keep going in and coming out immediately. After talking to these people, he learned that the interviewers didn’t ask them anything. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 It was Max’s turn to be interviewed. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the interview, Max reached home and hugged his parents. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第三节(满分5分) 抄写下面一段文字。 The wider aim of the jars is to encourage teenagers to think more objectively about money and the things that it can do, so that they grow up understanding, if you like, the value of the valuable.

His mother often had to make tough choices about how to use their limited resources, including a decision to send his oldest sister to school. When Ghunta finally went to school, he couldn’t catch up on his reading skills. Not only had he been kept home from school as a child, but he had no access to books. By the time he entered the sixth grade, he could spell his name, but he still couldn’t make out words or read with understanding. When Ghunta was about 12, a young teacher decided to start a special reading program for struggling students. Ghunta was the first student to sign up. The teacher was incredibly kind to him. She did not ask anything of Ghunta, except that he worked hard and believed in himself. Under her guidance, Ghunta’s reading skills finally started to improve. He started to feel more confident. “She had left me with the gift of literacy,” he said, “and with the value as a human being.” His life took a new direction. He graduated from elementary school with a number of academic awards, including one for “most improved in reading”. He went on to college. Today, he is the author of two children’s books, about overcoming difficult experiences in childhood. He’s now working on his first full-length collection of poetry. Ghunta said, “I would love her to see the significant impact that she has made on my life, and the ways in which I have carried this memory of her — the hope and the light — with me and how it continues to be a source of joy.” 4. What caused Ghunta’s poor reading ability? A. Limited family resources. B. Early disinterest in reading. C. Lacking enough attention. D. Terrible memory. 5. Who inspired Ghunta greatly in his study? A. His mother. B. His sister. C. A young teacher. D. Other struggling students. 6. What does paragraph 5 mainly say about Ghunta? A. His future life. B. His achievements. C. His family background. D. His self-taught experience. 7 Which of the following can best describe Ghunta’s story? A. Reading helps people find happiness. B. Direction is the key to success. C. Poverty contributes to a person’s success. D. A teacher’s belief lights a student’s path. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过叙述Ghunta的成长经历，特别是他从几乎无法阅读到成为儿童书作家和获奖诗人的转变过程，展现了个人奋斗和老师的帮助对他人生路径的深刻影响。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Not only had he been kept home from school as a child, but he had no access to books.(他不仅小时候被关在家里不去上学，而且也没有机会接触到书)”可知，家庭环境的原因造成了Ghunta较差的阅读能力。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Under her guidance, Ghunta’s reading skills finally started to improve. He started to feel more confident. “She had left me with the gift of literacy,” he said, “and with the value as a human being.” His life took a new direction.(在她的指导下，Ghunta的阅读能力终于开始提高。他开始觉得更自信了。“她给我留下了识字的礼物，”他说，“以及作为人的价值。”他的生活有了新的方向)”可知，一位年轻老师的激励使Ghunta阅读水平提高，生活也有了新方向。故选C。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“He graduated from elementary school with a number of academic awards, including one for “most improved in reading”. He went on to college. Today, he is the author of two children’s books, about overcoming difficult experiences in childhood. He’s now working on his first full-length collection of poetry.(他从小学毕业时获得了许多学术奖项，其中包括“阅读进步最大”奖。他上了大学。如今，他是两本关于克服童年困难经历的儿童书籍的作者。他现在正在写他的第一部长篇诗集)”可知，第五段主要概括了Ghunta的成就。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Ghunta said, “I would love her to see the significant impact that she has made on my life, and the ways in which I have carried this memory of her — the hope and the light — with me and how it continues to be a source of joy.”(Ghunta说：“我希望她能看到她对我的生活产生的重大影响，以及我如何将对她的记忆——希望和光明——带在身边，以及它如何继续成为我快乐的源泉。”)”结合本文叙述了Ghunta从几乎无法阅读到成为儿童书作家和获奖诗人的转变过程。在此期间一个年轻老师的出现改变了Ghunta的人生方向，由此可见，教师的信念照亮学生成长之路。故选D。 C Sensory-based food education given to 3 — 5-year-old children in the kindergarten increases their willingness to choose vegetables and fruit, according to a new study from the University of Eastern Finland. The researchers used the sensory-based food education method Sapere, which makes use of children’s natural way of relying on all of the five senses when learning new things. In the Sapere method, children are given an active role around food, and they are encouraged to share their sensory experiences. For example, kindergartens can introduce different vegetables and fruit to children. They can involve children in baking and cooking, and they can offer children opportunities to grow their own vegetables in the kindergarten backyard. Food-related themes can also be included in books and games. The researchers compared children in different kindergarten groups. Some were offered sensory-based food education, while others weren’t. Children were offered a snack buffet containing different vegetables and fruit to choose from, and the researchers took photos of their plates to analyse their willingness to choose and eat these food items. The findings show that sensory-based food education increased children’s willingness to choose vegetables and fruit, especially among children whose parents had a lower educational background. On average, children of lower-educated parents tend to eat fewer vegetables and fruit. This is how food education given in the kindergarten can help even out the dietary gap between families. “Another interesting finding is that the Sapere food education method also seems to improve the eating atmosphere in kindergarten groups. This encourages children to choose a more diverse selection on their plates,” explains Kähkönen, who is an expert on health. Positive and personal food-related experiences gained in the kindergarten can help adjust dietary preferences in a direction that is beneficial to health Dietary preferences learned in early childhood often stick with a person all the way to adolescence and adulthood. 8. What is the main focus of the new study? A. The relation between diet and health. B. The impact of family on food choices. C. The role of kindergartens in food education. D. The effectiveness of Sapere in food education. 9. How did the researchers conduct their research? A. By making a comparison. B. By analyzing the previous cases. C. By interviewing some children. D. By collecting the relevant data. 10. What do the underlined words “even out” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Measure. B. Narrow. C. Analyze. D. Update. 11. What’s Kähkönen’s attitude towards the Sapere method? A. Doubtful. B. Opposed. C. Favorable. D. Unclear. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。一项新研究显示，在幼儿园对3到5岁的孩子进行以感官为基础的食物教育会增强他们选择蔬菜和水果的意愿。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The researchers used the sensory-based food education method Sapere, which makes use of children’s natural way of relying on all of the five senses when learning new things.(研究人员使用了基于感官的食物教育方法Sapere，该方法利用了儿童在学习新事物时依赖所有五种感官的自然方式)”可知，这项新研究的主要焦点是Sapere在食品教育中的有效性。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The researchers compared children in different kindergarten groups.(研究人员比较了不同幼儿园组的孩子)”可知，研究者使用对比的方式进行研究。故选A。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“The findings show that sensory-based food education increased children’s willingness to choose vegetables and fruit, especially among children whose parents had a lower educational background. On average, children of lower-educated parents tend to eat fewer vegetables and fruit.(研究结果表明，以感官为基础的食物教育增加了孩子们选择蔬菜和水果的意愿，尤其是在父母受教育程度较低的孩子中。平均而言，父母受教育程度较低的孩子往往吃较少的蔬菜和水果)”以及划线词上文“ This is how food education given in the kindergarten can help(这就是幼儿园的饮食教育如何帮助……)”可知，食物教育在提高儿童选择蔬菜和水果的意愿上起着重要的作用。所以幼儿园的食物教育可以帮助缩小不同家庭间孩子在饮食习惯上的差异。故画线词与Narrow意思最为接近，表示“缩小”。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段““Another interesting finding is that the Sapere food education method also seems to improve the eating atmosphere in kindergarten groups. This encourages children to choose a more diverse selection on their plates,” explains Kähkönen, who is an expert on health. (“另一个有趣的发现是，Sapere食品教育方法似乎也改善了幼儿园群体的饮食氛围。这鼓励孩子们在他们的盘子里选择更多样化的食物，”健康专家Kähkönen解释说)”可推断，Kähkönen对Sapere方法持“支持”的态度。故选C。 D Red pandas live in high-altitude, mild forests where they prefer to be near water and have access to bamboo. They are mostly active at dusk and dawn, and they sleep during most of the day. They rely on the trees for shelter, to escape from predators (捕食者), and to sunbathe in the winter. About 98% of a red panda’s diet is bamboo. They need a lot of it to survive — around 2 kilograms each day. However, finding enough bamboo is difficult as the red panda’s habitat becomes smaller. When people move into the red panda’s area, they clear forests for housing and commercial development, farming and mining. Natural disasters such as landslides, floods; heavy snow and rainfall have also destroyed their habitats. Forest fires, invasive (侵入的) plant species, and issues with bamboo flowering (including the death of the plant) have similarly had effects on the red panda’s habitat. Species of bamboo are affected by forest fires and other environmental changes. As people move into the area, they often collect bamboo, leaving less for red pandas to eat. Although the red panda is endangered, steps are being made to save the species and its habitat. According to the IUCN, China has 46 protected areas, covering about 65% of the species’ habitat in the country. There are at least 19 protected areas in India, five in Bhutan and three in Myanmar. The Red Panda Network is a nonprofit organization that protects red pandas and their habitat. They work with local community groups to establish wildlife feeding centers, train forest protectors to raise awareness about red pandas, and work with villagers to establish protected areas. The WWF is also working to protect red pandas and their habitats. Because more than a third of the potential habitat is in Nepal, the group works with yak herders (牦牛牧民) and other groups there to lower their effect on the red panda’s habitat. 12. Why is it challenging for red pandas to find enough food? A. Bamboo is not good enough. B. They are not active hunters. C. Their habitats are becoming smaller. D. There is a lack of water in their habitat. 13. What do the data in paragraph 4 mainly show? A. Global efforts to protect red pandas. B. Serious situations faced by red pandas. C. India’s deep protection of rare wildlife. D. China’s advantage in keeping red pandas. 14. What does the Red Panda Network do to protect red pandas? A. Force yak herders to move away. B. Advocate people to adopt them. C. Cooperate with local experts to do research. D. Work with communities to build wildlife feeding centers. 15. What’s a suitable title for this text? A. The Key Points of Red Pandas’ Survival. B. The Influence of Natural Disasters on Bamboo. C. The Threat and Protection of Red Pandas. D. The Reason for the Disappearance of Bamboo. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14.

He used to live with his parents. He was frustrated with his parents blaming him for every little thing he did at home. While waiting for the interview, he was thinking, “Only if I succeed in today’s interview will I say goodbye to my parents’ house and settle down in the big city, which will let me avoid having to listen to my parents’ complaints about little things all the time.” He started thinking about little things his parents used to blame him for— How his mother asked him to make his bed after he woke up. If he left the bathroom door open, his mother would ask him to close the door and before that check if the tap was turned off properly. How his father asked him to switch off the fan or light switch before he left. How his mother always blamed him for not keeping things at the right places. While thinking about all these, he thought, “Why should I listen to their words? Why should I do all these? If I get a job, I will definitely leave their home.” When looking around, Max saw that there were many candidates (应试者) sitting in that office. He saw that the light in the office was still on and it was ten o’clock in the morning. Remembering his father’s words, he got up and switched off the light. When he saw that water was falling from the water cooler kept at the office, he went to turn off the tap properly. It was time to go up to the second floor for the interview, everyone went upstairs in turn. On the way up the stairs, a chair stood in the way, and the other candidates bypassed it, but Max removed it, set it aside, and walked to the second floor. Now, as Max waited outside, he saw the candidates in front of him keep going in and coming out immediately. After talking to these people, he learned that the interviewers didn’t ask them anything. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 It was Max’s turn to be interviewed. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the interview, Max reached home and hugged his parents. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version： It was Max’s turn to be interviewed. He went inside and passed his file to the interviewers. After looking at his file, an interviewer asked, “When are you joining?” A wave of surprise flooded into Max’s mind. Looking at his face, the interviewer said, “Today, in interviews, no one was asked anything. We noticed everyone came but no one switched off the tap or light except you. You have good values and habits. This is what we evaluate most.” After the interview, Max reached home and hugged his parents. He told them about the interview and the result. He apologized to them and thanked them. He said, “In my life, my degree has less value in comparison to the lessons I have learned from you because of your strict demand on small matters. Today, I come to know that not only education but good habits and values have their own importance if I want to succeed in life. A person who doesn’t have self-disciplines, no matter how smart he is, can’t succeed in his life.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了麦克斯在家里做的每一件小事都受到父母的责备，这使他很沮丧，但是却因为父母教导的一个小行为，通过了面试。让麦克斯明白了父母的苦心。 详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“轮到麦克斯接受面试了”可知，第一段可描写麦克斯通过面试，面试官说明原因。 ②由第二段首句内容“面试结束后，麦克斯回到家，拥抱了他的父母”可知，第二段可描写麦克斯明白了父母的苦心，道歉并感谢父母。 2.续写线索：麦克斯面试——麦克斯通过面试——得知原因——回家道歉——感谢——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①询问：ask/inquire ②道歉：apologize/make an apology ③看重：evaluate/value 情绪类 ①感谢：thank/show gratitude to ②聪明：smart/clever 【点睛】[高分句型1] We noticed everyone came but no one switched off the tap or light except you.
