When she knew how challenging it was for her parents, who lacked any college education, to properly manage the earnings of farming, she took it over immediately. This started a lifelong passion for finance (财务), and it led her down an unexpected path to becoming a role model she never had. Yet, such ambitions ran in obvious contrast to everything familiar to her. “I didn’t have any advisors,” Larson says. “I didn’t have anyone to look up to for a professional example. All the women I met were stay-at-home moms.” Despite having parents who couldn’t fully understand her ambitions, Larson went to the BYU Marriott School, where she earned a business degree and focused much of her coursework on international finance. Larson worked for seven years as a financial representative with Northwestern Mutual, advising clients on important financial decisions. Larson returned to BYU Marriott in 2008 to earn an MBA, and accepted a position in the school as an assistant professor following her graduation. For more than a decade, Larson has taught finance classes to undergraduate and MBA students. While she teaches finance, Larson tries to help her students see how mastering finance principles can also impact their personal lives. Constantly balancing motherhood and work, Larson makes adjustments to the way she teaches. She gave birth to her first three children in three years while teaching at BYU Marriott, wondering at times if labor might start while in front of a class full of students. At one time, Larson taught online classes from her dining room table while taking care of a newborn and other young children at home. As a female instructor in the often male-dominated finance industry, Larson works to inspire other women who seek a similar path to hers. Larson became the role model that she never had, the example that a 14-year-old girl staring at a farming expense sheet couldn't find. Now, Larson's children and students will always have that example. 41. What made Larson develop a lifelong passion for finance? A. Her experience of managing earnings of farming. B. Her strong desire for college education. C. The high expectations from her parents. D. The challenging labor on her dairy farm. 42. What problem did Larson face according to Paragraph 2? A. She had no one to ask for advice. B. She was unsure about the coursework. C. She was misunderstood by her neighbor. D. She was unfamiliar with everything at school. 43. Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 3? A. Larson returned to BYU Marriott in 2018 to earn an MBA. B. Larson taught finance classes only to MBA students. C. Larson tried to control her students’ personal lives. D. Larson worked as a financial representative with Northwestern Mutual. 44. What does the underlined word “labor” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. The work of looking after a baby. B. The process of dealing with students. C. The process of giving birth to a baby. D. The work of adjusting teaching methods. 45. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Following Your Interest. B. Balancing Work and Family. C. Becoming Your Own Role Model. D. Seeking a Way to Be Successful. C It turns out that humans aren’t the only ones taking mathematics tests. A group of cognitive (认知的) scientists are training bees to perform simple addition (加法) and subtraction (减法). For the experiment, the scientists lured (诱惑) individual bees with sugar water. “She flies back to the hive, gives it to the other bees, and two minutes later she’ll come back and do it again,” Dyer said, a scientist from RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia. They taught and tested 14 bees over the course of the experiment — one bee at a time. To learn the rules, a bee first would be shown cards printed with a number of shapes in one of two colors: blue, if they were supposed to add one to the shapes on the card, or yellow, if they were meant to subtract one shape. Then, the bee would choose an answer to the problem by flying to one of two presented solutions. If it chose well, it found itself near a solution of delicious sugar water. If it chose poorly, however, it would be punished with a bad-tasting drink. The researchers found that each bee picked the correct answer in both addition and subtraction trials about 70 percent of the time. Dyer said, “Problem-solving requires both long-term memory and short-term memory. Long-term memory allows the bees to remember that blue and yellow equate to (等同于) separate mathematical rules. Short-term memory lets them recall the actual numbers in a particular problem.” “It’s assumed that humans are very complex, and there’s a decreasing level of complexity going away from humans,” said Muth, an animal cognition researcher who wasn’t involved in this study. But in fact, complex awareness, like the mathematical problems solved by bees, can be made up of relatively simple ways. That doesn’t explain why bees might have evolved (进化) the ability to figure out mathematical problems, though. One possibility is that bees didn’t evolve to do addition and subtraction. They just evolved to be smart enough to figure it out. Dyer said that observing a tiny animal with a brain that has less than a million neurons (神经元) learn a very complex task makes him think, “Wow, what can humans achieve?” 46. What task did the scientists set for the bees? A. Separating blue from yellow B. Figuring out different shapes. C. Learning simple mathematical rules. D. Tasting water of two flavors. 47. What role does memory play in problem-solving? A. Long-term memory plays a bigger part. B. Long-term memory contributes to recalling. C. Short-term memory is not necessary. D. Short-term memory is as important as long-term memory. 48. Which of the following statements is TRUE about bees? A. They can remember all the colors in the wild. B. Their intelligence becomes higher as they evolve. C. They experience a decreasing level of complexity. D. They are by nature good at mathematics. 49. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Human achievements can be limitless. B. Human brains deserve good study. C. Humans must fully develop neurons. D. Humans are good at observation. 50. The passage can be probably taken from ________. A. A science journal B. An advertisement C An art museum guidance D. A science fiction 第III卷 非选择题 （满分30分） 第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 阅读表达（共5小题; 每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 I used to be a selfish girl and I only thought of myself. I did not care about helping others, but only about my look, clothes, money and grades. One day, I was suddenly influenced by my neighbor, who is now in college, and ended up wanting to volunteer for others. He had so much fun with volunteering and told me that he felt extremely good after helping others. I hoped to get the same results, for I felt worthless everywhere then. I viewed almost everything in a negative way, and I figured I had to experience something that would make me appreciate things that I had. I volunteered at the nursing home for a year where my neighbor volunteered. I brought snacks, coffee and games for the elderly patients, talked to them while sharing snacks, and played games like chess and checkers with them. Because they were Koreans, they often had trouble communicating with the helpers who were hired to help them. I sometimes translated things for them and offered to be their translator whenever they needed help. By volunteering at the nursing home, I changed a lot. I realized how lucky I am to speak both Korean and English and that I should help other people learn Korean as well. I had learned many life lessons through volunteering. By helping others, I felt needed in society. Not only did it enhance my confidence, but it also allowed others to benefit from it. Volunteering is a great opportunity to improve oneself, others, and the whole society. So if you ever have the chance, volunteer! It's something you won't regret! 51.

When she knew how challenging it was for her parents, who lacked any college education, to properly manage the earnings of farming, she took it over immediately. This started a lifelong passion for finance (财务), and it led her down an unexpected path to becoming a role model she never had. Yet, such ambitions ran in obvious contrast to everything familiar to her. “I didn’t have any advisors,” Larson says. “I didn’t have anyone to look up to for a professional example. All the women I met were stay-at-home moms.” Despite having parents who couldn’t fully understand her ambitions, Larson went to the BYU Marriott School, where she earned a business degree and focused much of her coursework on international finance. Larson worked for seven years as a financial representative with Northwestern Mutual, advising clients on important financial decisions. Larson returned to BYU Marriott in 2008 to earn an MBA, and accepted a position in the school as an assistant professor following her graduation. For more than a decade, Larson has taught finance classes to undergraduate and MBA students. While she teaches finance, Larson tries to help her students see how mastering finance principles can also impact their personal lives. Constantly balancing motherhood and work, Larson makes adjustments to the way she teaches. She gave birth to her first three children in three years while teaching at BYU Marriott, wondering at times if labor might start while in front of a class full of students. At one time, Larson taught online classes from her dining room table while taking care of a newborn and other young children at home. As a female instructor in the often male-dominated finance industry, Larson works to inspire other women who seek a similar path to hers. Larson became the role model that she never had, the example that a 14-year-old girl staring at a farming expense sheet couldn't find. Now, Larson's children and students will always have that example. 41. What made Larson develop a lifelong passion for finance? A. Her experience of managing earnings of farming. B. Her strong desire for college education. C. The high expectations from her parents. D. The challenging labor on her dairy farm. 42. What problem did Larson face according to Paragraph 2? A. She had no one to ask for advice. B. She was unsure about the coursework. C. She was misunderstood by her neighbor. D. She was unfamiliar with everything at school. 43. Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 3? A. Larson returned to BYU Marriott in 2018 to earn an MBA. B Larson taught finance classes only to MBA students. C. Larson tried to control her students’ personal lives. D. Larson worked as a financial representative with Northwestern Mutual. 44. What does the underlined word “labor” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. The work of looking after a baby. B. The process of dealing with students. C. The process of giving birth to a baby. D. The work of adjusting teaching methods. 45. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Following Your Interest. B. Balancing Work and Family. C. Becoming Your Own Role Model. D. Seeking a Way to Be Successful. 【答案】41. A 42. A 43. D 44. C 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Jenn Larson14岁时接管了家里管理务农收入的工作，这使得她对财务产生了热情，之后她努力奋斗追逐自己的梦想，最终成为了自己的榜样。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“When she knew how challenging it was for her parents, who lacked any college education, to properly manage the earnings of farming, she took it over immediately. This started a lifelong passion for finance (财务), and it led her down an unexpected path to becoming a role model she never had.(当她知道，对于没有受过大学教育的父母来说，妥善管理务农收入是多么具有挑战性时，她立即接手了这个工作。这开启了她对财务的终生热情，并引导她走上了一条意想不到的道路，成为她从未有过的榜样。)”可知，Larson管理农业收益的经验让她对财务产生了终生的热情，故选A。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中““I didn’t have any advisors,” Larson says. “I didn’t have anyone to look up to for a professional example. All the women I met were stay-at-home moms.”(“我没有任何顾问，”Larson说。“我没有任何人可以向我提供专业的榜样。我遇到的所有女性都是全职妈妈。”)”可知，Larson面临的问题是她没有人可以寻求建议。故选A。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Larson worked for seven years as a financial representative with Northwestern Mutual, advising clients on important financial decisions.(Larson)在西北互助银行 (Northwestern Mutual) 担任财务代表七年，为客户提供重要财务决策建议)”可知，Larson曾担任西北互助银行的财务代表。故选D。 【44题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在句子“She gave birth to her first three children in three years while teaching at BYU Marriott, wondering at times if labor might start while in front of a class full of students. (她在杨百翰大学万豪酒店任教期间，三年内生下了头三个孩子，有时她担心labor是否会在全班学生面前开始。)”可知，她在任教期间三年内生下了三个孩子，所以她有时会担心自己会在全班学生面前意外生下孩子，由此可推知，划线单词意为“生孩子”，故选C。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“This started a lifelong passion for finance (财务), and it led her down an unexpected path to becoming a role model she never had.(这开启了她对财务的终生热情，并引导她走上了一条意想不到的道路，成为她从未有过的榜样)”和最后一段中“Larson became the role model that she never had, the example that a 14-year-old girl staring at a farming expense sheet couldn't find. Now, Larson's children and students will always have that example.(Larson成为了她从未有过的榜样，一个14岁的女孩盯着农业支出表找不到的榜样。现在，Larson的孩子和学生将永远有这个榜样)”可知，文章主要讲述了Jenn Larson14岁时接管了家里管理务农收入的工作，这使得她对财务产生了热情，之后她努力奋斗追逐自己的梦想，最终成为了自己的榜样。C项“成为你自己的榜样”适合用作文章标题，故选C。 C It turns out that humans aren’t the only ones taking mathematics tests. A group of cognitive (认知的) scientists are training bees to perform simple addition (加法) and subtraction (减法). For the experiment, the scientists lured (诱惑) individual bees with sugar water. “She flies back to the hive, gives it to the other bees, and two minutes later she’ll come back and do it again,” Dyer said, a scientist from RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia. They taught and tested 14 bees over the course of the experiment — one bee at a time. To learn the rules, a bee first would be shown cards printed with a number of shapes in one of two colors: blue, if they were supposed to add one to the shapes on the card, or yellow, if they were meant to subtract one shape. Then, the bee would choose an answer to the problem by flying to one of two presented solutions. If it chose well, it found itself near a solution of delicious sugar water. If it chose poorly, however, it would be punished with a bad-tasting drink. The researchers found that each bee picked the correct answer in both addition and subtraction trials about 70 percent of the time. Dyer said, “Problem-solving requires both long-term memory and short-term memory. Long-term memory allows the bees to remember that blue and yellow equate to (等同于) separate mathematical rules. Short-term memory lets them recall the actual numbers in a particular problem.” “It’s assumed that humans are very complex, and there’s a decreasing level of complexity going away from humans,” said Muth, an animal cognition researcher who wasn’t involved in this study. But in fact, complex awareness, like the mathematical problems solved by bees, can be made up of relatively simple ways. That doesn’t explain why bees might have evolved (进化) the ability to figure out mathematical problems, though. One possibility is that bees didn’t evolve to do addition and subtraction. They just evolved to be smart enough to figure it out. Dyer said that observing a tiny animal with a brain that has less than a million neurons (神经元) learn a very complex task makes him think, “Wow, what can humans achieve?” 46 What task did the scientists set for the bees? A. Separating blue from yellow B. Figuring out different shapes. C. Learning simple mathematical rules. D. Tasting water of two flavors. 47. What role does memory play in problem-solving? A. Long-term memory plays a bigger part. B. Long-term memory contributes to recalling. C. Short-term memory is not necessary. D. Short-term memory is as important as long-term memory. 48. Which of the following statements is TRUE about bees? A. They can remember all the colors in the wild. B. Their intelligence becomes higher as they evolve. C. They experience a decreasing level of complexity. D. They are by nature good at mathematics. 49. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Human achievements can be limitless. B. Human brains deserve good study. C. Humans must fully develop neurons. D. Humans are good at observation. 50. The passage can be probably taken from ________. A. A science journal B. An advertisement C. An art museum guidance D. A science fiction 【答案】46. C 47. D 48. B 49. A 50. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家正在训练蜜蜂进行简单的加法和减法。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It turns out that humans aren’t the only ones taking mathematics tests. A group of cognitive (认知的) scientists are training bees to perform simple addition (加法) and subtraction (减法).(事实证明，人类并不是唯一接受数学测试的人。一群认知科学家正在训练蜜蜂进行简单的加法和减法)”以及第三段中“To learn the rules, a bee first would be shown cards printed with a number of shapes in one of two colors(为了学习规则，蜜蜂首先会看到印有许多形状的卡片，这些形状有两种颜色)”可知，科学家给蜜蜂设定的任务是学习简单的数学规则。故选C。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Dyer said, “Problem-solving requires both long-term memory and short-term memory. Long-term memory allows the bees to remember that blue and yellow equate to (等同于) separate mathematical rules. Short-term memory lets them recall the actual numbers in a particular problem.”(戴尔说：‘解决问题需要长期记忆和短期记忆。长期记忆使蜜蜂能够记住蓝色和黄色等同于单独的数学规则。短期记忆让他们回忆起特定问题的实际数字。’)”可知，记忆在解决问题中所起的作用是短期记忆与长期记忆一样重要。故选D。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“That doesn’t explain why bees might have evolved (进化) the ability to figure out mathematical problems, though. One possibility is that bees didn’t evolve to do addition and subtraction. They just evolved to be smart enough to figure it out.(但这并不能解释为什么蜜蜂可能进化出解决数学问题的能力。一种可能性是蜜蜂并没有进化出做加法和减法的能力。他们只是进化到足够聪明来解决这个问题。)”可知，蜜蜂的智力随着进化而变得更高。故选B。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Dyer said that observing a tiny animal with a brain that has less than a million neurons (神经元) learn a very complex task makes him think, “Wow, what can humans achieve?”(戴尔说，观察一只大脑少于一百万个神经元的微小动物学习一项非常复杂的任务让他思考，‘哇，人类能实现什么？’)”可推知，人类的成就可以是无限的。故选A。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“It turns out that humans aren’t the only ones taking mathematics tests. A group of cognitive (认知的) scientists are training bees to perform simple addition (加法) and subtraction (减法).(事实证明，人类并不是唯一接受数学测试的人。一群认知科学家正在训练蜜蜂进行简单的加法和减法)”可知，文章主要介绍了科学家正在训练蜜蜂进行简单的加法和减法，这属于科学科普类的知识。由此可推知，文章可能选自科学杂志，故选A。 第III卷 非选择题 （满分30分） 第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 阅读表达（共5小题; 每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 I used to be a selfish girl and I only thought of myself. I did not care about helping others, but only about my look, clothes, money and grades. One day, I was suddenly influenced by my neighbor, who is now in college, and ended up wanting to volunteer for others. He had so much fun with volunteering and told me that he felt extremely good after helping others. I hoped to get the same results, for I felt worthless everywhere then. I viewed almost everything in a negative way, and I figured I had to experience something that would make me appreciate things that I had. I volunteered at the nursing home for a year where my neighbor volunteered. I brought snacks, coffee and games for the elderly patients, talked to them while sharing snacks, and played games like chess and checkers with them. Because they were Koreans, they often had trouble communicating with the helpers who were hired to help them. I sometimes translated things for them and offered to be their translator whenever they needed help. By volunteering at the nursing home, I changed a lot. I realized how lucky I am to speak both Korean and English and that I should help other people learn Korean as well. I had learned many life lessons through volunteering. By helping others, I felt needed in society. Not only did it enhance my confidence, but it also allowed others to benefit from it. Volunteering is a great opportunity to improve oneself, others, and the whole society. So if you ever have the chance, volunteer! It's something you won't regret! 51.

He had so much fun with volunteering and told me that he felt extremely good after helping others. I hoped to get the same results, for I felt worthless everywhere then.(有一天，我突然受到了正在上大学的邻居的影响，最后我想为别人做志愿者。他在志愿服务中得到了很多乐趣，他告诉我，在帮助别人之后，他感觉非常好。我希望得到同样的结果，因为那时我觉得自己一无是处)”可知，作者受到作志愿者的邻居的影响，也想通过做志愿者得到乐趣，让自己感觉更好一些，所以想去当志愿者。故答案为：He wanted to feel good by helping others. 【53题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段中“Because they were Koreans, they often had trouble communicating with the helpers who were hired to help them. I sometimes translated things for them and offered to be their translator whenever they needed help.(由于他们是韩国人，他们经常与雇佣来帮助他们的助手沟通困难。我有时会为他们翻译一些东西，并在他们需要帮助的时候提供翻译)”可知，当老年患者与工作人员沟通有困难时，作者会为他们翻译东西，提供翻译服务。故答案为：The author would offer to be their translator. 【54题详解】 考查词义猜测。划线词所在段介绍了志愿者工作给作者带来的积极影响，结合划线词所在句“Not only did it enhance my confidence, but it also allowed others to benefit from it.(这不仅enhance了我的信心，也让别人从中受益)”中“my confidence”可推知，志愿者工作“增强”了作者的自信心，enhance的意思是“增强，提高”，可用strengthen来解释。故答案为strengthen. 【55题详解】 考查推理判断。本是为开放性问题，言之成理即可。文中作者用自己的经历告诉我们参加志愿者活动是提升自己、帮助他人和整个社会的机会，所以我们应该积极参与自愿者活动。故答案为：Participating in volunteer activities is an opportunity to improve ourselves, help others and the society, so we should take an active part in volunteer activities. 第二节 书面表达（满分20分） 56. 假设你是晨光中学的学生李华，你校学生会将举办一场主题为“保护濒危动物”的海报设计大赛。要求每张海报选择一种濒危动物，优秀海报将会在校园内展出。你打算参加此活动, 请按照以下提示用英语给组委会写一封信来推荐你的海报。内容包括： 1. 描述你所设计的海报； 2. 表达对海报入选的愿望。 参考词汇：濒危动物 endangered animals; 海报poster; 东北虎the Manchurian tiger; 黑脉金斑蝶 the Monarch butterfly；苏门答腊犀牛the Sumatran rhinoceros 注意： 1.词数不少于100词，可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 2.可以从参考词汇中选择一种动物，也可以自选你所了解的其他动物； 3.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Sir/Madam, I’m Li Hua, a student from Chenguang High School. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】参考范文： Dear Sir/Madam, I’m Li Hua, a student from Chenguang High School. Knowing that the Student Union will organize a poster-design competition whose theme is “Protecting the endangered animals”, I am thrilled to participate in it. Below are my descriptions about my poster. Human impact on animals has already resulted in certain species becoming endangered. As a result, I would like to design a poster so as to raise students’ awareness of protecting them. My poster consists of three parts. Speaking of the title, I have highlighted it with big words on the very top, “Helping the Manchurian tigers”, which shows the theme clearly. In the middle of my poster, I have drawn a big picture of a tiger, which lives in the Northeast China. The reason why I choose the Manchurian tigers is that their population has been decreasing dramatically in the past few years. The tigers now are under threat. We need to realize the serious situation they are facing. On each side of my poster, I have listed several measures to be taken to ensure their survival, such as building natural reserves and reinforcing international cooperation. I sincerely hope that my poster will be selected for the campus exhibition. It would be an honor to have my work displayed with the other outstanding entries and to contribute to the promotion of endangered animals’ conservation. Thank you for considering my submission. I’m looking forward to your early reply. Yours, Li Hua 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。假设你校学生会将举办一场主题为“保护濒危动物”的海报设计大赛。要求考生按照提示用英语给组委会写一封信来推荐你的海报 【详解】1.词汇积累 参加：participate in→take part in 影响：impact→influence 导致：result in→lead to 由……组成：consist of→be made up of 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：As a result, I would like to design a poster so as to raise students’ awareness of protecting them.  拓展句：As a result, I would like to design a poster which can raise students’ awareness of protecting them.  【点睛】【高分句型1】Knowing that the Student Union will organize a poster-design competition whose theme is “Protecting the endangered animals”, I am thrilled to participate in it.
