B When most girls might be playing with toys Hailey Fort was working with her building tools. In 2015, with the help of her parents, the nine-year-old girl built her first “mobile sleeping shelter” for her friend Edward. Edward was not the typical person you’d want your nine-year-old daughter to get along with, but Hailey was not a typical girl. Edward was homeless. Here is how it all started. In 2011, when Hailey was only five, she saw a homeless man on the street and thought it would be nice to buy him a sandwich. She and her mom did so. The man was Edward, who was out of work. From there Hailey thought, “Why give one person a sandwich when you can feed many more with a garden?” So she decided to help homeless people by providing them with food and shelter. Along with her parents, Hailey planted vegetables in a small garden. She donated vegetables in 2014. In 2015, she hoped to harvest more vegetables to help feed local homeless people. From that garden grew the shelter idea. “I don’t really want Edward to be rained on,” said Hailey. Hailey and her parents were supported by many people, including Lowes Home Improvement, who knocked 50% off the cost of supplies for Hailey’s shelter. Besides, Hailey received $3,000 from Together Rising for her efforts. She planned to use the money to build more shelters, so that not just her friend Edward, but some of his friends will also have warm, dry places to sleep. “It just doesn’t seem right that there are homeless people. I think it important that everyone has a place to live,” said Hailey. Hailey said she wanted to be a philanthropist (慈善家) when she grew up. 39. The underlined word “it” most probably refers to “______”. A. the sad story of Edward. B. Hailey’s happy childhood. C. Hailey’s friendship with Edward. D. learning to build shelters. 40. What can we infer from the passage? A. Hailey received a lot of support from the local government. B. Few parents wanted their kids to make friends with the homeless. C. Besides Hailey, there were many other girls working with building tools. D. All the homeless people in Hailey’s hometown now have places to live. 41. Lowes Home Improvement supported Hailey by ______. A. giving her 3,000 dollars. B. helping her design the mobile shelters. C. building mobile shelters for the homeless. D. charging her less for the building materials. 42. Which of the following is the CORRECT order according to the passage? a. Hailey built mobile shelters. b. Hailey started her small garden. c. Hailey made friends with Edward. d. Hailey bought a sandwich for a homeless man. A. d-c-b-a B. c-d-a-b C. a-c-d-b D. b-d-a-c C The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and for the environment. Those findings come from a new report in the journal Nature. There are ways to solve this diet-health-environment problem. But they will require a change in eating habits. And what we eat can be a product of culture, personal taste, price and ease. David Tilman is a professor of ecology at the University of Minnesota. In the study, he examined information from 100 countries to identify (确定) what people ate and how diet affected health. Mr Tilman noted a movement beginning in the 1960s. He found that as nations industrialized, population increased and earnings rose, more people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet. The Western diet is high in sugar, fat, oil and meat. By eating these foods, people began to get fatter and sicker. David Tilman says overweight people are at greater risk for non-infectious diseases like diabetes (糖尿病), heart disease and some cancers. And, a diet bad for human beings, it seems, is also bad for the environment. As the world’s population grows, experts say more forests and tropical areas will become farmland for crops or grasslands for grazing (放养) cattle. These areas will be needed to meet the increasing demand for food. More greenhouse gas is likely to be released in the future from agriculture because of this dietary shift than all the greenhouse gas that right now comes out of all the cars, and all of the airplanes, boats and ships, all forms of transportation. So the change in diet is likely to be worse for the world for climate warming than all the transportation sources. Mr Tilman calls the link between diet, the environment and human health, “a trilemma.” This is a play on the word “dilemma” — a problem offering a difficult choice. He says one possible solution is leaving the Western diet behind. 43. What can we learn from the first paragraph? A. The Western diet is not worth recommending. B. The westerners are changing their living habits. C. The spread of Western diet may affect food price. D. The Western culture influences people’s attitude to the environment. 44. The change in diet can cause ______. A. an increasing demand for more food B. more greenhouse gas to be released C. transportation form to change D. the loss of more farmland 45. The underlined part “a trilemma” in the last paragraph refers to ______. A. a word play B. a difficult choice C. a good method D. a diet program Ⅴ. 阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。 You may think kids are getting more homework than ever before. If so, think again. A new study by Brookings’ Brown Center on Education Policy shows that today’s students have no more homework than their parents did when they were in school. The study’s author, Tom Loveless, reviewed surveys taken by kids and parents about how much homework young students have. The results showed that the typical elementary student has 30-45 minutes of homework each night. The average high-schooler has about an hour. These numbers have remained the same since 1984. In a set of guidelines published by the National Parent Teacher Association (PTA), the amount of time students should spend on homework is their grade level multiplied by ten minutes. For example, a third-grader should have 30 minutes of homework, a fifth-grader 50 minutes, and so on. Loveless, who was a sixth-grade teacher in the 1980s, says this system has stayed consistent into the 21st century. Homework is an important part of a student’s education. Some teachers argue that homework prepares kids for state tests and for college. They worry that a lighter homework load will put kids at a disadvantage. “Homework has benefits that go well beyond what’s going on in school,” says Harris Cooper, a University of Missouri psychology professor who has studied homework’s effect on test scores. Kids learn to be organized, manage their time and master new skills without a teacher’s help. Teachers give two reasons for assigning a lot of homework. First, they say, the government now requires schools to meet higher-than-ever achievement goals for students. Second, they know many parents want their children to be able to get into the nation’s best colleges and universities. These parents believe homework is a way to ensure students are learning at their full capacity (能力). 46. What was the purpose of the study? (no more than 15 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 47. How long should a fourth-grader spend on his homework? (no more than 5 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 48. What does “consistent” in Paragraph 3 mean in English?

In 2015, with the help of her parents, the nine-year-old girl built her first “mobile sleeping shelter” for her friend Edward. Edward was not the typical person you’d want your nine-year-old daughter to get along with, but Hailey was not a typical girl. Edward was homeless. Here is how it all started. In 2011, when Hailey was only five, she saw a homeless man on the street and thought it would be nice to buy him a sandwich. She and her mom did so. The man was Edward, who was out of work. From there Hailey thought, “Why give one person a sandwich when you can feed many more with a garden?” So she decided to help homeless people by providing them with food and shelter. Along with her parents, Hailey planted vegetables in a small garden. She donated vegetables in 2014. In 2015, she hoped to harvest more vegetables to help feed local homeless people. From that garden grew the shelter idea. “I don’t really want Edward to be rained on,” said Hailey. Hailey and her parents were supported by many people, including Lowes Home Improvement, who knocked 50% off the cost of supplies for Hailey’s shelter. Besides, Hailey received $3,000 from Together Rising for her efforts. She planned to use the money to build more shelters, so that not just her friend Edward, but some of his friends will also have warm, dry places to sleep. “It just doesn’t seem right that there are homeless people. I think it important that everyone has a place to live,” said Hailey. Hailey said she wanted to be a philanthropist (慈善家) when she grew up. 39. The underlined word “it” most probably refers to “______”. A. the sad story of Edward. B. Hailey’s happy childhood. C. Hailey’s friendship with Edward. D. learning to build shelters. 40. What can we infer from the passage? A. Hailey received a lot of support from the local government. B. Few parents wanted their kids to make friends with the homeless. C. Besides Hailey, there were many other girls working with building tools. D. All the homeless people in Hailey’s hometown now have places to live. 41. Lowes Home Improvement supported Hailey by ______. A. giving her 3,000 dollars. B. helping her design the mobile shelters. C. building mobile shelters for the homeless. D. charging her less for the building materials. 42. Which of the following is the CORRECT order according to the passage? a. Hailey built mobile shelters. b. Hailey started her small garden. c. Hailey made friends with Edward. d. Hailey bought a sandwich for a homeless man. A. d-c-b-a B. c-d-a-b C. a-c-d-b D. b-d-a-c 【答案】39. C 40. B 41. D 42. A 【解析】 【导语】本文为记叙文。文章讲述了一个九岁女孩Hailey Fort通过自己的努力给无家可归的人提供食物和庇护所的感人故事。 【39题详解】 词句猜测题 。根据文章第三段提到的“In 2011, when Hailey was only five, she saw a homeless man on the street and thought it would be nice to buy him a sandwich. She and her mom did so. The man was Edward, who was out of work. (2011年，当Hailey只有五岁的时候，她看到街上一个无家可归的人，觉得给他买个三明治会很好。她和妈妈照做了。这个人是Edward,他失业了。）可只，Hailey与Edward的友谊成为了她全部后续善行的开始，因此“it”指代的是Hailey与Edward的友谊。 故选C。 【40题详解】 推理判断题 根据文章第二段“Edward was not the typical person you’d want your nine-year-old daughter to get along with, but Hailey was not a typical girl. Edward was homeless. (Edward不是那种你希望自己九岁的女儿相处的典型的人，但海莉也不是那种典型的女孩。Edward无家可归。)”可推知，多数父母可能不希望自己的孩子与无家可归的人建立友谊。 故选B。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第六段中的“Hailey and her parents were supported by many people, including Lowes Home Improvement, who knocked 50% off the cost of supplies for Hailey’s shelter. (Hailey和她的父母得到了许多人的支持，包括Lowes Home Improvement，他们将Hailey建造庇护所的材料费用降低了50%。)”可知，Lowes通过减少材料费用来支持Hailey。 故选D。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Here is how it all started. In 2011, when Hailey was only five, she saw a homeless man on the street and thought it would be nice to buy him a sandwich. (友谊是这样开始的。2011年，当海莉只有5岁的时候，她在街上看到一个无家可归的人，就想给他买个三明治。)”根据第四段“Along with her parents, Hailey planted vegetables in a small garden. (海莉和她的父母一起在一个小花园里种蔬菜。)”根据倒数第二段“She planned to use the money to build more shelters, so that not just her friend Edward, but some of his friends will also have warm, dry places to sleep. (她计划用这笔钱建造更多的庇护所，这样不仅是她的朋友爱德华，而且他的一些朋友也会有温暖、干燥的地方睡觉。)”可知，顺序为d-c-b-a。故选A。 C The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and for the environment. Those findings come from a new report in the journal Nature. There are ways to solve this diet-health-environment problem. But they will require a change in eating habits. And what we eat can be a product of culture, personal taste, price and ease. David Tilman is a professor of ecology at the University of Minnesota. In the study, he examined information from 100 countries to identify (确定) what people ate and how diet affected health. Mr Tilman noted a movement beginning in the 1960s. He found that as nations industrialized, population increased and earnings rose, more people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet. The Western diet is high in sugar, fat, oil and meat. By eating these foods, people began to get fatter and sicker. David Tilman says overweight people are at greater risk for non-infectious diseases like diabetes (糖尿病), heart disease and some cancers. And, a diet bad for human beings, it seems, is also bad for the environment. As the world’s population grows, experts say more forests and tropical areas will become farmland for crops or grasslands for grazing (放养) cattle. These areas will be needed to meet the increasing demand for food. More greenhouse gas is likely to be released in the future from agriculture because of this dietary shift than all the greenhouse gas that right now comes out of all the cars, and all of the airplanes, boats and ships, all forms of transportation. So the change in diet is likely to be worse for the world for climate warming than all the transportation sources. Mr Tilman calls the link between diet, the environment and human health, “a trilemma.” This is a play on the word “dilemma” — a problem offering a difficult choice. He says one possible solution is leaving the Western diet behind. 43 What can we learn from the first paragraph? A. The Western diet is not worth recommending. B. The westerners are changing their living habits. C. The spread of Western diet may affect food price. D. The Western culture influences people’s attitude to the environment. 44. The change in diet can cause ______. A. an increasing demand for more food B. more greenhouse gas to be released C. transportation form to change D. the loss of more farmland 45. The underlined part “a trilemma” in the last paragraph refers to ______. A. a word play B. a difficult choice C. a good method D. a diet program 【答案】43. A 44. B 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了西方饮食习惯的泛滥危害着人们的健康及环境。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and for the environment.(西方饮食习惯在全球的传播对人类健康和环境都有害)”可知，西方饮食存在诸多弊端，不值得推荐。故选A项。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段第三句“More greenhouse gas is likely to be released in the future from agriculture because of this dietary shift than all the greenhouse gas that right now comes out of all the cars, and all of the airplanes, boats and ships, all forms of transportation. (由于这种饮食习惯的改变，未来农业释放的温室气体可能比现在所有汽车、飞机、船只和各种交通工具产生的温室气体都多)”可知，饮食的改变会导致更多温室气体的释放。故选B项。 【45题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“This is a play on the word ‘dilemma’— a problem offering a difficult choice. He says one possible solution is leaving the Western diet behind.(这是对 ‘dilemma’ 这个词一种演绎——一个提供艰难选择的问题。他说一个可能的解决办法是摒弃西方饮食)”可知，a trilemma类似dilemma，指的是一个艰难的选择。故选B项。 Ⅴ. 阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。 You may think kids are getting more homework than ever before. If so, think again. A new study by Brookings’ Brown Center on Education Policy shows that today’s students have no more homework than their parents did when they were in school. The study’s author, Tom Loveless, reviewed surveys taken by kids and parents about how much homework young students have. The results showed that the typical elementary student has 30-45 minutes of homework each night. The average high-schooler has about an hour. These numbers have remained the same since 1984. In a set of guidelines published by the National Parent Teacher Association (PTA), the amount of time students should spend on homework is their grade level multiplied by ten minutes. For example, a third-grader should have 30 minutes of homework, a fifth-grader 50 minutes, and so on. Loveless, who was a sixth-grade teacher in the 1980s, says this system has stayed consistent into the 21st century. Homework is an important part of a student’s education. Some teachers argue that homework prepares kids for state tests and for college. They worry that a lighter homework load will put kids at a disadvantage. “Homework has benefits that go well beyond what’s going on in school,” says Harris Cooper, a University of Missouri psychology professor who has studied homework’s effect on test scores. Kids learn to be organized, manage their time and master new skills without a teacher’s help. Teachers give two reasons for assigning a lot of homework. First, they say, the government now requires schools to meet higher-than-ever achievement goals for students. Second, they know many parents want their children to be able to get into the nation’s best colleges and universities. These parents believe homework is a way to ensure students are learning at their full capacity (能力). 46. What was the purpose of the study? (no more than 15 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 47. How long should a fourth-grader spend on his homework? (no more than 5 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 48. What does “consistent” in Paragraph 3 mean in English? (no more than 5 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 49. What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about? (no more than 5 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 50. What do you think of doing homework? And why? (no more than 20 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】46. To prove whether kids are getting more homework than ever before. 47. For 40 minutes. 48. The same./Unchanged. 49. Importance of doing homework. 50. Doing homework helps children understand what is being learned in class, find weaknesses and develop skills to improve confidence. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。一项研究研究了孩子们是否比以前有更多的家庭作业以及家庭作业的益处。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“A new study by Brookings’ Brown Center on Education Policy shows that today’s students have no more homework than their parents did when they were in school.(布鲁金斯布朗教育政策中心的一项新研究表明，今天的学生的家庭作业并不比他们的父母在学校时多)”可知，研究的目的是为了证明孩子们是否比以前有更多的家庭作业。故回答为：To prove whether kids are getting more homework than ever before. 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In a set of guidelines published by the National Parent Teacher Association (PTA), the amount of time students should spend on homework is their grade level multiplied by ten minutes. For example, a third-grader should have 30 minutes of homework, a fifth-grader 50 minutes, and so on.(在全国家长教师协会（PTA）发布的一套指导方针中，学生应该花在家庭作业上的时间是他们的年级水平乘以10分钟。例如，三年级的学生应该有30分钟的家庭作业，五年级的学生应该有50分钟，以此类推)”可知，一个四年级的学生应该花40分钟做家庭作业。故回答为：For 40 minutes. 【48题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“These numbers have remained the same since 1984.(这些数字自1984年以来一直保持不变)”和第三段“For example, a third-grader should have 30 minutes of homework, a fifth-grader 50 minutes, and so on. Loveless, who was a sixth-grade teacher in the 1980s, says this system has stayed consistent into the 21st century.(例如，一个三年级的学生应该有30分钟的家庭作业，一个五年级的学生有50分钟，以此类推。Loveless在20世纪80年代是一名六年级的老师，他说这个制度一直consistent到21世纪)”可推知，学生应该花在家庭作业上的时间是他们的年级水平乘以10分钟，这种制度一直延续到21世纪。故回答为：The same./Unchanged. 【49题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Homework is an important part of a student’s education. Some teachers argue that homework prepares kids for state tests and for college. They worry that a lighter homework load will put kids at a disadvantage. “Homework bas benefits that go well beyond what’s going on in school,” says Harris Cooper, a University of Missouri psychology professor who has studied homework’s effect on test scores. Kids learn to be organized, manage their time and master new skills without a teacher’s help.(家庭作业是学生教育的重要组成部分。一些老师认为家庭作业可以帮助孩子们为州考试和大学做好准备。他们担心较轻的家庭作业负担会使孩子处于不利地位。密苏里大学心理学教授哈里斯·库珀研究了家庭作业对考试成绩的影响，他说：“家庭作业的好处远远超出了学校的学习范围。”孩子们在没有老师的帮助下学会了组织、管理时间和掌握新技能)”可知，第四段主要关于做作业的重要性。故回答为：Importance of doing homework. 【50题详解】 开放性试题。考生言之有理即可，例如：做作业帮助孩子理解课堂所学知识，发现弱点，掌握技巧，提高自信。故回答为：Doing homework helps children understand what is being learned in class, find weaknesses and develop skills to improve confidence.
