St. James’s Park At 23 hectares (公顷), St. James’s is the second-smallest of the eight Royal Parks after The Green Park. But what it lacks in size it makes up for in beauty, with brightly-colored flower beds, a lovely lake and a fountain. It is famous for its pelicans (鹈鹕), which were introduced to the park in 1664 as a gift from the Russian Ambassador to King Charles Ⅱ. Hyde Park From hunting to ice-skating, central London’s largest green space really has seen it all. Today Hyde Park is a center of activity throughout the year. If you’re with kids, visit the nearby Princess Diana Playground, where unaccompanied adults are turned away at the gate. The summer season means festivals, with a large section of the park used for open-air concerts. Regent’s Park As one of the largest park of central London, Regen’s Park is also one of the loveliest green spaces. Among its many attractions are London Zoo, Regent's Canal, a boating lake, and sports pitches. Performances take place here in an open-air theater during summer. To the north of Regent’s Park is Primrose Hill, a lovely spot for a relaxing walk or picnic, offering extraordinary views over the city skyline. Hampstead Heath With its rolling woodlands, grasslands and abundant wildlife, Hampstead Heath feels far away from the city. Swimmers head to the three bathing ponds, two of which are open year round. Hampstead Heath is home to a variety of butterflies and bird species. This is a wonderful place for a walk, especially to the top of Parliament Hill, which offers expansive views across London. 21. Which is the smallest of the eight Royal Parks? A. St. James’s Park. B. Regent’s Park. C. The Green Park. D. Hyde Park. 22. What do Hyde Park and Regent’s Park have in common? A. Summer performances. B. Ice-skating. C. Boating races. D. Hunting. 23. What can visitors do in Hampstead Heath? A. Enjoy concerts. B. Meet Princess Diana. C. Go for a swim. D. Visit Regent’s Canal. B Most people aren’t familiar with where Lesotho is. When I was asked to go there as a teacher, I didn’t know either. Lesotho is a small, mountainous country surrounded by its larger neighbor, South Africa. Winters are so cold and dry that trees can only survive if they’re near a spring or river. So when I met Wilfred, who had many trees to plant on his way home, I had to see what he’d done. My brother and I made the two-hour hike one winter morning. As we came around the mountain, we saw lots of trees. We continued on and reached Wilfred’s home in an area surrounded by a wonder: a garden with peach and pear trees. I was amazed at what Wilfred had achieved, but he said most of the work was done by his father, Mr Pitso. I felt great admiration for Mr Pitso. He mentioned that he started planting peach trees 20 years earlier. At first, people were resentful, and several times others removed his trees because they felt it was unfair for him to have something they didn’t have. To solve the problem, Mr Pitso gave his trees away freely to his neighbors. He also organized tree-planting days at the primary school where he worked and started a tree-buying cooperative to get funds from the government. He showed people how they could make tree-growing profitable by selling fruit and firewood. In times of drought, although he was in his sixties, he carried buckets of water from the small stream to his trees. As we left, Mr Pitso told us that before he died, he hoped to see the barren (贫瘠的) valley around his home covered with trees. When faced with challenges in my life, I remember Mr Pitso’s dream. The poor primary school teacher living in the mountains of Lesotho gives me hope. 24. Why did the author decide to visit Wilfred’s home? A. To help Wilfred plant peach trees. B. To get some firewood for the winter. C. To see Wilfred’s tree-planting efforts. D. To learn about Wilfred’s living conditions. 25. What does the underlined word “resentful” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Confused. B. Annoyed. C. Careless. D. Helpless. 26. Which of the following words best describe Mr Pitso? A. Caring and strong-willed. B. Demanding and high-spirited. C. Creative and self-centered. D. Determined and good-humored. 27. What is the main purpose of the author in writing the text? A. To introduce the geography of Lesotho. B. To explain the importance of tree-planting. C. To discuss the challenges of teaching abroad. D. To share a hopeful story about protecting nature. C Windows brighten a room, and give us a view outside of it. They also let in a large amount of heat from the sun. In fact, about 87% of heat gains in a given space come through its windows. This is because ultraviolet (紫外线的) radiation passes through glass easily. To keep out the heat, people use window coverings like curtains, but this also blocks the view. A recent study indicates that soon people who love a view — but hate the heat — will be able to have it both ways. The study presents a new window coating that could let in sunlight and keep out the heat. Window films and heat-blocking coatings are not a new concept. So, what’s new about this coating? It’s all about the angles. Because windows are placed vertically (垂直地), sunlight hits them at different angles throughout the day. If a given coating only blocks ultraviolet light at a 90-degree angle, it is only useful at the time of day at which the sun hits the glass at that angle. “The angle between the sunshine and the window is always changing. Our coating maintains functionality and efficiency wherever the sun’s position is in the sky,” said the lead author of the study. Instead of trying to use trial and error, which could take years, the scientists used AI machine-learning model assisted by quantum (量子的) computing to figure out the way to create an ideal window coating. The coating can remain clear and keep a room cool at any given hour of the day, regardless of the angle at which the sunlight is hitting the window. There are endless numbers of practical applications for this new window coating, from commercial use to home use, and even for use in the cars. It will certainly lower energy use as people all over the world turn off their air conditioners and electric fans and still enjoy the view. 28. What is a disadvantage of window coverings? A. They are expensive. B. They are difficult to install. C. They prevent the view outside. D. They can’t block the heat effectively. 29. What makes the new window coating unique? A. It blocks all sunlight. B. It is efficient at a fixed angle. C. It changes color with sunlight. D. It works in all sunlight conditions. 30. How did scientists develop the new window coating? A. By trial and error. B. With quantum computing and AI. C. By imitating existing window films. D. With traditional machine-learning models. 31. What is the author’s attitude toward the new window coating? A. Doubtful. B. Unclear. C. Critical. D. Optimistic. D Human conversations are rapid-fire affairs, with mere milliseconds, one-thousandth of a second, passing between one person’s speech and their partner’s response. This speedy turn taking is universal across cultures — but now it turns out that chimps (黑猩猩) do it, too. By analyzing thousands of gestures from chimps in East Africa, researchers found that the animals take turns while communicating, and do so as quickly as we do. Researchers sorted out hundreds of hours of footage from a large database of chimp gestural interactions. The researchers studied the footage, describing the movements each chimp made. They found the chimps responded to gestures with another gesture in their interactions. In one case, two chimps exchanged seven gestures in a row: Young male Daudi in Uganda had caught a small antelope, and young female Onyofi was requesting some of the meat. Every time she made a begging gesture, Daudi would respond by moving his arms and stamping his feet-gestures that mean“move away, go away”. This turn taking was rapid and often overlapping, seeming to flow naturally like in human conversations. What’s more, it took chimps an average of just 120 milliseconds to respond to another chimp's gesture with their own, well within the 0-to 200-millisecond range common in human interactions. “The work has important implications for the origins of human communication,” says Stephen Levinson, a linguist. Humans may have got turn-taking behavior from our last common ancestor with other great apes (类人猿). Finding one of those features-turn taking-in our close cousins suggests that even the earliest humans already had this ability. However, some researchers say it’s too early to conclude that humans and chimps both got this ability from our ancestor. “Without looking at other species, we can’t make that claim. We don’t know if this is something special about chimps’ communication, or whether it’s been found there first ‘because we firstly think of chimps when we’re asking evolutionary (进化的) questions’,” an animal communication researcher said. 32. What is the common understanding of the turn taking? A. It refers to all kinds of communicating skills. B. It generally exists among different cultures. C. It is a factor that distinguishes people from animals. D. It can be learned by chimps with people’s guideline. 33. Why does the author mention Daudi and Onyofi? A. To make a contrast. B. To make a comment. C. To explain a rule. D. To clarify a concept. 34 What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. The scientists will do more research. B. More chimps will be sent to be studied. C. The researchers’ conclusion is fully recognized. D. The study of evolution is closely related to chimps. 35. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Chimps study to take turn from humans B. Chimps take turns while chatting just like humans C. Chimps use their own words to chat with their partners D. Chimps get the ability of taking turn from our ancestors 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。 Problems between parents and children are common.

Every time he practiced quite attentively, as if there had been someone looking at him not blinking an eye. At the end of each lesson he would always say, “My mom’s going to hear me play some day.” But it seemed hopeless. Then one day Tom stopped coming. Not thinking over the reason for his absence, I continued to teach other kids. The recital (独奏会) was coming and I asked all the students, except Tom, to prepare it. I nearly forgot there had been such a kid once appearing in my class. But on the day before the recital, Tom came and asked me if he could play on the stage, which surprised me. I told him that he had dropped out. He said his mom had been sick and unable to take him to lessons, but he was still practicing at home. “I’ve just got to play,” he insisted. At that moment, something inside me let me allow him to. So I nodded and let him play. Then came the recital night. The gym was packed with parents. They all looked forward to the children’s wonderful performances. Worried about his immature skill, I put Tom up last to perform. Then Tom came up on stage at last. He pulled out the piano bench and began. His fingers were jumping on the keyboard. Seeing this, I had to admit a fact-never had I heard Mozart played so well by people of his age. After he ended, everyone was on their feet in wild applause for his jaw-dropping performance, including me. I was completely shocked with his performance. 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。 In tears, I ran up on stage and put my arms around Tom. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ What Tom said shocked me a lot. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null 英语试卷 注意事项： 1. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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。 例：How much is the shirt?

M: How often do you visit the dentist? W: I go to the dentist regularly every 6 months and also when I have a toothache. M: What did the dentist say about your teeth? W: She suggested that I use special medicine to avoid feeling painful while I was brushing my teeth. She also asked me to brush my teeth at least three times a day. M: So have you done it? W: Yes, I have. But the problem is that I really love drinking sweet iced tea and coffee. M: You’d better choose the right ones, so next time you will be free of toothache. 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 17. Who is the speaker? A. A tour guide. B. An architect. C. A businessman. 18.

B 【解析】 【原文】M: Welcome to the tour of the Hill House. Completed in 1904, this house is one of the most well-known works of Charles Rennie Mackintosh, a famous architect. It was designed and built for a local businessman and his family. Now, please allow me to introduce it briefly. Before beginning his design, the architect spent some time in the owner’s old home, observing their life and studying their habits. After learning that the owner’s main desire was to have a home that could be one in a million, the architect came up with a special design. The style of the building was different from that of the period. Instead of wood and brick, the house was made of concrete, a new material in those days. Inside the house were pieces of furniture originally built to the design and you will see they are still in good condition. However, those pieces in the children’s bedrooms have been destroyed. Luckily, except those, all the designs for the building and its other contents have been well preserved, so we’ve been able to enjoy this remarkable house. Now, let’s begin with the living room. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Here are some of London’s best parks for you to explore. St. James’s Park At 23 hectares (公顷), St. James’s is the second-smallest of the eight Royal Parks after The Green Park. But what it lacks in size it makes up for in beauty, with brightly-colored flower beds, a lovely lake and a fountain. It is famous for its pelicans (鹈鹕), which were introduced to the park in 1664 as a gift from the Russian Ambassador to King Charles Ⅱ. Hyde Park From hunting to ice-skating, central London’s largest green space really has seen it all. Today Hyde Park is a center of activity throughout the year. If you’re with kids, visit the nearby Princess Diana Playground, where unaccompanied adults are turned away at the gate. The summer season means festivals, with a large section of the park used for open-air concerts. Regent’s Park As one of the largest park of central London, Regen’s Park is also one of the loveliest green spaces. Among its many attractions are London Zoo, Regent's Canal, a boating lake, and sports pitches. Performances take place here in an open-air theater during summer. To the north of Regent’s Park is Primrose Hill, a lovely spot for a relaxing walk or picnic, offering extraordinary views over the city skyline. Hampstead Heath With its rolling woodlands, grasslands and abundant wildlife, Hampstead Heath feels far away from the city. Swimmers head to the three bathing ponds, two of which are open year round. Hampstead Heath is home to a variety of butterflies and bird species. This is a wonderful place for a walk, especially to the top of Parliament Hill, which offers expansive views across London. 21. Which is the smallest of the eight Royal Parks? A. St. James’s Park. B. Regent’s Park. C. The Green Park. D. Hyde Park. 22. What do Hyde Park and Regent’s Park have in common? A. Summer performances. B. Ice-skating. C. Boating races. D. Hunting. 23. What can visitors do in Hampstead Heath? A. Enjoy concerts. B. Meet Princess Diana. C. Go for a swim. D. Visit Regent’s Canal. 【答案】21. C 22. A 23. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章介绍了伦敦四个最好的公园。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“At 23 hectares (公顷), St. James’s is the second-smallest of the eight Royal Parks after The Green Park.(St. James’s Park占地23公顷，是八个皇家公园中仅次于The Green Park的第二小公园。)”可知，The Green Park是最小的。故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段Hyde Park中“The summer season means festivals, with a large section of the park used for open-air concerts.(夏季意味着节日，公园的很大一部分用于露天音乐会。)”和第四段Regent’s Park中“Performances take place here in an open-air theater during summer.(夏季，这里的露天剧场会举行演出。)”可知，Hyde Park和Regent’s Park的共同之处是它们在夏季都会举行演出。故选A。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Swimmers head to the three bathing ponds, two of which are open year round.(游泳者前往三个泳池，其中两个是全年开放的。)”可知，游客可以在Hampstead Heath Park的泳池游泳。故选C。 B Most people aren’t familiar with where Lesotho is. When I was asked to go there as a teacher, I didn’t know either. Lesotho is a small, mountainous country surrounded by its larger neighbor, South Africa. Winters are so cold and dry that trees can only survive if they’re near a spring or river. So when I met Wilfred, who had many trees to plant on his way home, I had to see what he’d done. My brother and I made the two-hour hike one winter morning. As we came around the mountain, we saw lots of trees. We continued on and reached Wilfred’s home in an area surrounded by a wonder: a garden with peach and pear trees. I was amazed at what Wilfred had achieved, but he said most of the work was done by his father, Mr Pitso. I felt great admiration for Mr Pitso. He mentioned that he started planting peach trees 20 years earlier. At first, people were resentful, and several times others removed his trees because they felt it was unfair for him to have something they didn’t have. To solve the problem, Mr Pitso gave his trees away freely to his neighbors. He also organized tree-planting days at the primary school where he worked and started a tree-buying cooperative to get funds from the government. He showed people how they could make tree-growing profitable by selling fruit and firewood. In times of drought, although he was in his sixties, he carried buckets of water from the small stream to his trees. As we left, Mr Pitso told us that before he died, he hoped to see the barren (贫瘠的) valley around his home covered with trees. When faced with challenges in my life, I remember Mr Pitso’s dream. The poor primary school teacher living in the mountains of Lesotho gives me hope. 24. Why did the author decide to visit Wilfred’s home? A. To help Wilfred plant peach trees. B. To get some firewood for the winter. C. To see Wilfred’s tree-planting efforts. D. To learn about Wilfred’s living conditions. 25. What does the underlined word “resentful” in paragraph 3 mean? A Confused. B. Annoyed. C. Careless. D. Helpless. 26. Which of the following words best describe Mr Pitso? A. Caring and strong-willed. B. Demanding and high-spirited. C. Creative and self-centered. D. Determined and good-humored. 27. What is the main purpose of the author in writing the text? A. To introduce the geography of Lesotho. B. To explain the importance of tree-planting. C. To discuss the challenges of teaching abroad. D. To share a hopeful story about protecting nature. 【答案】24. C 25. B 26. A 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述在莱索托的山区，一位小学教师通过不懈的努力，带动社区植树造林，以此保护自然环境的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“So when I met Wilfred, who had many trees to plant on his way home, I had to see what he’d done.(所以当我遇到威尔弗雷德时，他在回家的路上有很多树要种，我必须看看他做了什么。)”可知，决定去拜访威尔弗雷德是为了去看他为了植树所做的努力。故选C。 【25题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段“several times others removed his trees because they felt it was unfair for him to have something they didn't have.(有几次其他人移走了他的树，因为他们觉得他拥有他们没有的东西是不公平的。)”可知，人们嫉妒Wilfred所有用的树，所以把树移走，因此可以推断这些人的情绪和态度是不满。所以划线单词的含义是“不满，恼怒”。故选B。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“To solve the problem, Mr Pitso gave his trees away freely to his neighbors.(为了解决这个问题，Pitso先生把他的树免费赠送给邻居。)”以及下文“In times of drought, although he was in his sixties, he carried buckets of water from the small stream to his trees.(在干旱的时候，尽管他已经六十多岁了，他还是从小溪里提着水桶给他的树浇水。)”可知，这两件事体现Pitso乐于助人及意志坚强的特点。故选A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“As we left, Mr Pitso told us that before he died, he hoped to see the barren (贫瘠的) valley around his home covered with trees. When faced with challenges in my life, I remember Mr Pitso’s dream. The poor primary school teacher living in the mountains of Lesotho gives me hope.(当我们离开时，皮索先生告诉我们，他希望在去世前看到他家周围那片贫瘠的山谷被树木覆盖。当我面对生活中的挑战时，我记得皮索先生的梦想。生活在莱索托山区的贫困小学教师给了我希望。)”可知，本文讲述Pitso通过植树保护自然环境的故事，由此可以推断这是一个保护自然的故事。故选D。 C Windows brighten a room, and give us a view outside of it. They also let in a large amount of heat from the sun. In fact, about 87% of heat gains in a given space come through its windows. This is because ultraviolet (紫外线的) radiation passes through glass easily. To keep out the heat, people use window coverings like curtains, but this also blocks the view. A recent study indicates that soon people who love a view — but hate the heat — will be able to have it both ways. The study presents a new window coating that could let in sunlight and keep out the heat. Window films and heat-blocking coatings are not a new concept. So, what’s new about this coating? It’s all about the angles. Because windows are placed vertically (垂直地), sunlight hits them at different angles throughout the day. If a given coating only blocks ultraviolet light at a 90-degree angle, it is only useful at the time of day at which the sun hits the glass at that angle. “The angle between the sunshine and the window is always changing. Our coating maintains functionality and efficiency wherever the sun’s position is in the sky,” said the lead author of the study. Instead of trying to use trial and error, which could take years, the scientists used AI machine-learning model assisted by quantum (量子的) computing to figure out the way to create an ideal window coating. The coating can remain clear and keep a room cool at any given hour of the day, regardless of the angle at which the sunlight is hitting the window. There are endless numbers of practical applications for this new window coating, from commercial use to home use, and even for use in the cars. It will certainly lower energy use as people all over the world turn off their air conditioners and electric fans and still enjoy the view. 28. What is a disadvantage of window coverings? A. They are expensive. B. They are difficult to install. C. They prevent the view outside. D. They can’t block the heat effectively. 29. What makes the new window coating unique? A. It blocks all sunlight. B. It is efficient at a fixed angle. C. It changes color with sunlight. D. It works in all sunlight conditions. 30. How did scientists develop the new window coating? A. By trial and error. B. With quantum computing and AI. C. By imitating existing window films. D. With traditional machine-learning models. 31. What is the author’s attitude toward the new window coating? A. Doubtful. B. Unclear. C. Critical. D. Optimistic. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了新型窗户涂层能透光隔热的研究发现。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段中“To keep out the heat, people use window coverings like curtains, but this also blocks the view. (为了阻挡热量，人们使用窗帘等窗户遮盖物，但这也会阻挡景色。)”可知，窗户遮盖物的一个缺点是它们会阻挡外面的景色。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段中“If a given coating only blocks ultraviolet light at a 90-degree angle, it is only useful at the time of day at which the sun hits the glass at that angle. “The angle between the sunshine and the window is always changing. Our coating maintains functionality and efficiency wherever the sun’s position is in the sky,” said the lead author of the study. (如果一种涂层只能在90度角阻挡紫外线，那么它只有在太阳以那个角度照射到玻璃上时才有用。而阳光和窗户之间的角度总是在变化。研究的首席作者说：“无论太阳在天空中的位置如何，我们的涂层都能保持功能和效率。”)”可知，这种新的窗户涂层在所有阳光条件下都能发挥作用，这是它的独特之处。故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第四段中“Instead of trying to use trial and error, which could take years, the scientists used AI machine-learning model assisted by quantum (量子的) computing to figure out the way to create an ideal window coating. (科学家没有试图使用可能需要数年时间的试错法，而是使用了量子计算辅助的人工智能机器学习模型来找出创造理想窗户涂层的方法。)”可知，科学家是借助量子计算和人工智能开发出这种新的窗户涂层的。故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段中“There are endless numbers of practical applications for this new window coating, from commercial use to home use, and even for use in the cars. It will certainly lower energy use as people all over the world turn off their air conditioners and electric fans and still enjoy the view. (这种新的窗户涂层有着无数的实际应用，从商业用途到家庭用途，甚至汽车上都可以使用。随着世界各地的人们关掉空调和电扇，它肯定会降低能源消耗，同时仍然可以欣赏风景。)”可知，作者对这种新的窗户涂层持乐观态度。故选D。 D Human conversations are rapid-fire affairs, with mere milliseconds, one-thousandth of a second, passing between one person’s speech and their partner’s response. This speedy turn taking is universal across cultures — but now it turns out that chimps (黑猩猩) do it, too. By analyzing thousands of gestures from chimps in East Africa, researchers found that the animals take turns while communicating, and do so as quickly as we do. Researchers sorted out hundreds of hours of footage from a large database of chimp gestural interactions. The researchers studied the footage, describing the movements each chimp made. They found the chimps responded to gestures with another gesture in their interactions. In one case, two chimps exchanged seven gestures in a row: Young male Daudi in Uganda had caught a small antelope, and young female Onyofi was requesting some of the meat. Every time she made a begging gesture, Daudi would respond by moving his arms and stamping his feet-gestures that mean“move away, go away”. This turn taking was rapid and often overlapping, seeming to flow naturally like in human conversations. What’s more, it took chimps an average of just 120 milliseconds to respond to another chimp's gesture with their own, well within the 0-to 200-millisecond range common in human interactions. “The work has important implications for the origins of human communication,” says Stephen Levinson, a linguist. Humans may have got turn-taking behavior from our last common ancestor with other great apes (类人猿). Finding one of those features-turn taking-in our close cousins suggests that even the earliest humans already had this ability. However, some researchers say it’s too early to conclude that humans and chimps both got this ability from our ancestor. “Without looking at other species, we can’t make that claim. We don’t know if this is something special about chimps’ communication, or whether it’s been found there first ‘because we firstly think of chimps when we’re asking evolutionary (进化的) questions’,” an animal communication researcher said. 32. What is the common understanding of the turn taking? A. It refers to all kinds of communicating skills. B. It generally exists among different cultures. C. It is a factor that distinguishes people from animals. D. It can be learned by chimps with people’s guideline. 33. Why does the author mention Daudi and Onyofi? A. To make a contrast. B. To make a comment. C. To explain a rule. D. To clarify a concept. 34. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. The scientists will do more research. B. More chimps will be sent to be studied. C. The researchers’ conclusion is fully recognized. D. The study of evolution is closely related to chimps. 35. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Chimps study to take turn from humans B. Chimps take turns while chatting just like humans C. Chimps use their own words to chat with their partners D. Chimps get the ability of taking turn from our ancestors 【答案】32. B 33. D 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。研究发现黑猩猩交流像人类一样会快速轮流，这对人类交流起源研究意义重大。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“This speedy turn taking is universal across cultures — but now it turns out that chimps (黑猩猩) do it, too.(这种快速的轮流交流在不同文化中是普遍存在的 —— 但现在发现黑猩猩也会这样做)”可知，轮流交流通常存在于不同文化之中。故选B项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段“By analyzing thousands of gestures from chimps in East Africa, researchers found that the animals take turns while communicating, and do so as quickly as we do.(通过分析来自东非黑猩猩的数千个手势，研究人员发现这些动物在交流时会轮流进行，而且速度和我们人类一样快)”可知，这里引出了黑猩猩交流时会轮流这一概念，再由第二段“In one case, two chimps exchanged seven gestures in a row: Young male Daudi in Uganda had caught a small antelope, and young female Onyofi was requesting some of the meat. Every time she made a begging gesture, Daudi would respond by moving his arms and stamping his feet - gestures that mean‘move away, go away’.(在一个案例中，两只黑猩猩连续交换了七个手势：乌干达的年轻雄性Daudi捕获了一只小羚羊，年轻雌性Onyofi想要一些肉。每次她做出乞讨的手势，Daudi都会通过挥动手臂和跺脚来回应 —— 这些手势意味着‘走开，离开’)”可知，文章通过具体描述Daudi和Onyofi之间交流时用手势互相回应、轮流进行交流的这个事例，使得黑猩猩在交流中“轮流交流”这一相对抽象的概念更加清晰明了，让读者更易理解，所以作者提及它们是为了澄清“黑猩猩交流时会轮流进行”这一概念。故选D项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“However, some researchers say it’s too early to conclude that humans and chimps both got this ability from our ancestor. “Without looking at other species, we can’t make that claim. We don’t know if this is something special about chimps’ communication, or whether it’s been found there first ‘because we firstly think of chimps when we’re asking evolutionary ( 进化的 ) questions’,”(然而，一些研究人员表示，现在下结论说人类和黑猩猩都从我们的祖先那里得到了这种能力还为时过早。“在没有观察其他物种的情况下，我们无法做出这样的断言。我们不知道这是黑猩猩交流的特殊之处，还是因为我们在提出进化问题时首先想到黑猩猩而首先在那里发现的。”)”可以推断出，因为目前结论还不明确，所以科学家们还会进行更多的研究，去研究其他物种等情况来进一步确定。故选A项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。由文章第一段“By analyzing thousands of gestures from chimps in East Africa, researchers found that the animals take turns while communicating, and do so as quickly as we do.(通过分析来自东非黑猩猩的数千个手势，研究人员发现这些动物在交流时会轮流进行，而且速度和我们人类一样快)”以及后文可知，文章开篇指出人类交流中存在快速轮流的现象，且这种现象在不同文化中普遍存在，接着强调研究发现黑猩猩在交流时同样会轮流进行，后文还围绕这一发现对人类交流起源的影响以及相关争议展开论述。整个文章重点围绕黑猩猩在交流时像人类一样具备轮流交流的行为展开，所以B选项Chimps take turns while chatting just like humans(黑猩猩在聊天时像人类一样轮流交流) 准确概括了文章核心内容。故选B项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Problems between parents and children are common.

Every time he practiced quite attentively, as if there had been someone looking at him not blinking an eye. At the end of each lesson he would always say, “My mom’s going to hear me play some day.” But it seemed hopeless. Then one day Tom stopped coming. Not thinking over the reason for his absence, I continued to teach other kids. The recital (独奏会) was coming and I asked all the students, except Tom, to prepare it. I nearly forgot there had been such a kid once appearing in my class. But on the day before the recital, Tom came and asked me if he could play on the stage, which surprised me. I told him that he had dropped out. He said his mom had been sick and unable to take him to lessons, but he was still practicing at home. “I’ve just got to play,” he insisted. At that moment, something inside me let me allow him to. So I nodded and let him play. Then came the recital night. The gym was packed with parents. They all looked forward to the children’s wonderful performances. Worried about his immature skill I put Tom up last to perform. Then Tom came up on stage at last. He pulled out the piano bench and began. His fingers were jumping on the keyboard. Seeing this, I had to admit a fact-never had I heard Mozart played so well by people of his age. After he ended, everyone was on their feet in wild applause for his jaw-dropping performance, including me. I was completely shocked with his performance. 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。 In tears, I ran up on stage and put my arms around Tom. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ What Tom said shocked me a lot. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： In tears, I ran up on stage and put my arms around Tom. “I’m so proud of you, Tom. I’ve never heard you play like that. How did you make it?” I whispered, my voice trembling with emotion. Tom explained, “Well, Miss White…Remember I told you my mom was sick? Actually she had cancer and passed away yesterday. However, I believed she could hear me play tonight.” What Tom said shocked me a lot. I realized then that Tom’s performance wasn’t just for himself, but for the love and support of his mother. Hardly could I believe how such a little kid like Tom could bear so many sufferings and hardships with only immature shoulders. Gently, I brought him into my arms and offered him an affectionate hug, attempting to comfort him, but only to fail to contain my own tears. I wiped my tears away quickly and forced a smile, “You did quite well! Mom’s heard it and was proud of you!” Tom nodded, looking in the distance. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了热爱音乐的小汤姆10岁开始到作者的钢琴班上课，他非常努力，希望有一天能让妈妈听到自己的琴声。某一天，汤姆没来上课，作者也没在意他的缺席，直到独奏会开始前的一天，汤姆突然出现，解释了没来上课的原因是妈妈生病了，要求能够上台演出。虽然担忧，但作者还是答应了他的请求。独奏会那天，汤姆的演奏惊艳了全场，他相信刚刚去世的妈妈能够听到，并为他感到自豪。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我流着泪跑上舞台，抱住汤姆。”可知，第一段可描写作者的激动和惊讶，询问汤姆是如何做到的，从而得知汤姆妈妈去世的消息。 ②由第二段首句内容“汤姆的话使我大为震惊。”可知，第二段可描写作者对汤姆行为的理解和感动，以及对他的安慰和鼓励。 2. 续写线索：上台拥抱——表示自豪和惊讶——得知汤姆妈妈去世的消息——震惊——理解和感动——安慰——鼓励——相信妈妈能够听到 3. 词汇激活： 行为类： ①成功：succeed/make it ②颤抖：tremble/thrill ③死、去世：pass away/die ④忍受、容忍：bear/tolerate ⑤提供：offer/provide 情绪类： ①深情的、表达爱意的：affectionate/loving ②温柔地：gently/softly 【点睛】【高分句型1】I realized then that Tom’s performance wasn’t just for himself, but for the love and support of his mother.（运用了以连接词that引导的宾语从句和not...but...的固定短语。） 【高分句型2】Hardly could I believe how such a little kid like Tom could bear so many sufferings and hardships with only immature shoulders.（运用了否定词开头的倒装句和连接副词how引导的宾语从句。） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
