To be working 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：工作了两天之后，史蒂夫设法按时完成了他的报告。句子主干成分完整，空处为非谓语，结合“for two days”可知，work“工作”的动作发生在谓语动作之前，work和Steve逻辑上是主动关系，因此应用work的现在分词完成式，作时间状语。故选B。 27. ________to the realization of social equality, the former President Nelson Mandela set a good example for all of us.

A. Being raised B. Raising C. Raised D. To raise 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：他在格拉斯哥最穷的地方长大，要想成为足球明星还有很长的路要走。根据句意可知raise这个动词的逻辑主语是he，他在这个地方长大，两者之间是主谓关系，故选C项。 【点睛】本题在考查非谓语动词，题目难度中等，从选项看，不定式：表示目的和将来；动词的ing：表示主动和进行；过去分词：表示被动和完成。从句子结构判断，两个句子是否共用一个主语，主语与第一个动词之间是主谓关系还是动宾关系，再者还要注意判断时间关系，从而得出答案来。 30. With our country ________ an aging society, delaying the retirement age is probably unavoidable. A. entered B. entering C. to enter D. having entered 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：随着我国进入老龄化社会，推迟退休年龄可能是不可避免的。此处为with的复合结构，且country与enter构成主动关系，故用现在分词作宾补。故选B。 第三部分 阅读（共两节，满分39分） 第一节（共10小题；每小题2.6分，满分26分） A Training for your future Whether it’s an overnight pre-college program or a local day camp, summer programs for teens are a great opportunity to pursue new interests, improve existing skills, and make new friends outside of the classroom.

As a child, she lived with poverty and mistreatment. Although she was not offered everything effortlessly, she still overcame her childhood struggles and made her mark in the world. How did Oprah Winfrey overcome the setbacks (挫折) and build her career from zero? It started when she was 19 and won the Miss Black Tennessee beauty contest.

She has used her stage to inspire and teach people worldwide through her charity organization known as the Oprah Winfrey Network. She also took a step for the education of girls in South Africa by starting the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy. Oprah Winfrey’s life is a true example of where being strong and determined can lead you. She has shown people that if you put your mind to something, you can achieve it.

And that’s a real shame. Because when we tell kids that learning is all about the results, we teach them that mistakes are something to be feared and avoided. We stifle (压制) their interest in experimenting because experimenting means you’re going to make a mess and fail. And that’s too big a risk. Here’s a fascinating experiment that shows how children absorb what we say about effort vs. results. One of professor Carol Dweck’s experiments asked 400 5th graders in New York City schools to take an easy short test, on which almost all performed well. Half the children were praised for “being really smart”. The other half were complimented for “having worked really hard”. Then the students were asked to take a second test and given the option of either choosing one that was pretty simple and that they would do well on, or one that was more challenging, but on which they might make mistakes. Of those students praised for effort, 90 percent chose the harder test. Of those praised for being smart, the majority chose the easy test. Professor Dweck told me: “One thing I’ve learned is that kids are exquisitely (敏锐地) familiar to the real message, and the real message is ‘Be smart’. It’s not ‘We love it when you struggle or when you learn and make mistakes.’” One way we can fix this is by understanding the concepts of “fixed mindsets” and “growth mindsets”. Those with fixed mindsets believe either we’re good at something — whether it’s math or music or baseball — or we’re not. When we have this fixed mindset, mistakes serve no purpose but to highlight failure. Those with growth mindsets are much more likely to be able to accept mistakes because they know that they’re part of learning. And it’s been shown that when kids are taught about growth mindsets, their motivation to learn improves. 38. Why do children often avoid experimenting? A. They consider the process time-consuming. B. They are not interested in hands-on activities. C. They are afraid of making mistakes and failing. D. They prefer easy tasks over challenging ones. 39. What lesson can we learn from professor Carol Dweck’s experiment? A. Praise promotes children’s self-confidence. B. Keep children away from struggle and mistakes. C. Praise children for their devotion instead of their talent. D. Parents should give their children timely encouragement. 40. Who is the passage mainly intended for ? A. Professors. B. Parents. C. Researchers. D. Children. 【答案】38. C 39. C 40. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍我们要因为孩子的努力而鼓励他们，这样他们就会被教导成长心态，他们的学习动机就会提高。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Because when we tell kids that learning is all about the results, we teach them that mistakes are something to be feared and avoided. We stifle (压制) their interest in experimenting because experimenting means you’re going to make a mess and fail. (因为当我们告诉孩子们学习就是为了结果时，我们告诉他们错误是值得害怕和避免的。我们扼杀了他们对实验的兴趣，因为实验意味着你会把事情搞砸，失败)”可知，孩子们不想做实验是因为他们害怕犯错和失败。故选C。 【39题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Of those students praised for effort, 90 percent chose the harder test. Of those praised for being smart, the majority chose the easy test. (在那些因努力而受到表扬的学生中，90%的人选择了更难的考试。在那些被称赞聪明的人中，大多数人选择了简单的测试)”和“Professor Dweck told me: “One thing I’ve learned is that kids are exquisitely (敏锐地) familiar to the real message, and the real message is ‘Be smart’. It’s not ‘We love it when you struggle or when you learn and make mistakes.’”(德韦克教授告诉我：“我学到的一件事是，孩子们非常熟悉真实的信息，而真实的信息是‘要聪明’。这不是‘当你挣扎或学习和犯错时，我们喜欢它’。”)”可知，从德韦克教授的实验中我们了解到应该表扬孩子们付出的努力，而不是他们的天赋。故选C。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Because when we tell kids that learning is all about the results, we teach them that mistakes are something to be feared and avoided. (因为当我们告诉孩子们学习就是为了结果时，我们告诉他们错误是值得害怕和避免的。)”可知，这篇文章是写给父母的。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.6分，满分13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。 How to Encourage Your High School Students to Do Their Best Encouraging your high school students to do their best isn’t as hard as you may think.

She wished her son Steve would visit her, even if for only a day. Of course, the young man had a family of his own now, a darling little daughter Eva, and a business to take care of. Steve got on video calls with Chloe every other day. However, Chloe missed her son and granddaughter, wishing she was with them. One day, Chloe heard sounds from the neighboring house. She looked through the window and was delighted to see that she had new neighbors. One morning, when Chloe woke up and walked along the shore, she heard the sounds of water being splashed and the sound of children laughing wildly. She followed the sound and was concerned on finding the twins from the neighboring house standing knee deep in ocean water. Something didn’t feel right. “Why would anyone leave their kids unattended on the shore?” Chloe thought. She grabbed the kids’ hands and walked them to their home. As Chloe opened the door, she found the young mother lying unconscious on the kitchen floor. Chloe didn’t waste a second in calling 911. The first responders managed to revive (恢复) her consciousness on the spot. “My boys! Ralph! Ray!” the woman cried out to her kids as the ambulance took her away. Chloe said, “Don’t worry. Everything will be all right. I’ll take care of your sweet boys.” She kept her promise and looked after the kids like a grandmother. She took Ralph and Ray in and let them sleep in the bedroom that was specially made for her granddaughter Eva. It was during these days that she knew that the boys’ father died of illness. Chloe knew that the neighbor, Phoebe, had been trying to make ends meet by selling sweaters and socks that she knitted.

Something didn’t feel right. “Why would anyone leave their kids unattended on the shore?” Chloe thought.(她跟着声音走，发现隔壁家的双胞胎站在齐膝深的海水里，她很担心。感觉不太对劲。“为什么会有人把自己的孩子独自留在岸上呢？”克洛伊心想。)”可知，克洛伊担心邻居家孩子的安全，把他们带回了家，所以第⑤处应填safety。 根据第二段最后两句“As Chloe opened the door, she found the young mother lying unconscious on the kitchen floor. Chloe didn’t waste a second in calling 911.(克洛伊打开门，发现年轻的母亲不省人事地躺在厨房地板上。克洛伊立即拨打了911。)”可知，克洛伊拨打了911抢救昏迷的年轻母亲，根据最后一段第二句“Chloe knew that the neighbor, Phoebe, had been trying to make ends meet by selling sweaters and socks that she knitted.(克洛伊知道邻居菲比一直在试图通过出售她编织的毛衣和袜子来维持生计。)”可知，这位年轻的母亲名叫菲比，所以第⑥处应填the kids’/twins’/boys’ mother/Phoebe。 根据第三段第三句“Chloe said, “Don’t worry. Everything will be all right. I’ll take care of your sweet boys.”(克洛伊说：“别担心。一切都会好的。我会照顾你可爱的孩子们的。”)”可知，克洛伊承诺会帮忙照顾邻居家的孩子们，所以第⑦处应填take care of/look after。故答案为①alone②talked/communicated③missed④delighted⑤safety⑥the kids’/twins’/boys’ mother/Phoebe⑦take care of/look after。 【73题详解】 开放性试题。言之有理即可。参考答案：Phoebe was likely overwhelmed with relief and gratitude when she finally saw her twins.

B Oprah Winfrey is recognized as one of the most powerful females in the world. A successful TV hostess and an influential producer are among the titles she is known as. She was born in Kosciusko, Mississippi, on January 29, 1954. As a child, she lived with poverty and mistreatment. Although she was not offered everything effortlessly, she still overcame her childhood struggles and made her mark in the world. How did Oprah Winfrey overcome the setbacks (挫折) and build her career from zero? It started when she was 19 and won the Miss Black Tennessee beauty contest. This was her stepping stone towards her journey to work in the media. She started her career as a radio and TV hostess in Nashville. Then she moved to Baltimore, Maryland, where she hosted a local talk show called People Are Talking. This show gained popularity and this finally led to her own national talk show The Oprah Winfrey Show, which ran for 25 seasons and was the highest-rated talk show in the history of television. Oprah has a heart of gold and has been a supporter of many causes over the course of her career, such as education, health, and wellness. She has used her stage to inspire and teach people worldwide through her charity organization known as the Oprah Winfrey Network. She also took a step for the education of girls in South Africa by starting the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy. Oprah Winfrey’s life is a true example of where being strong and determined can lead you. She has shown people that if you put your mind to something, you can achieve it. The lesson we can learn from her is that no matter how hard things get, you can always find the strength to keep going and reach your goals. 34. What was Oprah’s childhood like? A. She was born with a silver spoon. B. She struggled with health problems. C She went through a lot of difficulties. D. She grew up in an easy atmosphere. 35. What was the first step of Oprah’s career? A. Winning a beauty contest. B. Launching a local talk show. C. Running a national talk show. D. Hosting a radio and TV programme. 36. Which of the following can best describe Oprah? A. Warm-hearted but impatient. B. Humorous and ambitious. C. Narrow-minded but talented. D. Strong-willed and kind-hearted. 37. What is the best title for the text? A. The Oprah Winfrey Show — A Stage to Inspire People B. The Oprah Winfrey Show — The Highest Rated Talk Show C. Oprah Winfrey — A Female Supporter of Media Broadcasting D. Oprah Winfrey — One of the Most Powerful Women in the World C We grow up with a mixed message: making mistakes is a necessary learning tool, but we should avoid them. And that’s a real shame. Because when we tell kids that learning is all about the results, we teach them that mistakes are something to be feared and avoided. We stifle (压制) their interest in experimenting because experimenting means you’re going to make a mess and fail. And that’s too big a risk. Here’s a fascinating experiment that shows how children absorb what we say about effort vs. results. One of professor Carol Dweck’s experiments asked 400 5th graders in New York City schools to take an easy short test, on which almost all performed well. Half the children were praised for “being really smart”. The other half were complimented for “having worked really hard”. Then the students were asked to take a second test and given the option of either choosing one that was pretty simple and that they would do well on, or one that was more challenging, but on which they might make mistakes. Of those students praised for effort, 90 percent chose the harder test. Of those praised for being smart, the majority chose the easy test. Professor Dweck told me: “One thing I’ve learned is that kids are exquisitely (敏锐地) familiar to the real message, and the real message is ‘Be smart’. It’s not ‘We love it when you struggle or when you learn and make mistakes.’” One way we can fix this is by understanding the concepts of “fixed mindsets” and “growth mindsets”. Those with fixed mindsets believe either we’re good at something — whether it’s math or music or baseball — or we’re not. When we have this fixed mindset, mistakes serve no purpose but to highlight failure. Those with growth mindsets are much more likely to be able to accept mistakes because they know that they’re part of learning. And it’s been shown that when kids are taught about growth mindsets, their motivation to learn improves. 38. Why do children often avoid experimenting? A. They consider the process time-consuming. B. They are not interested in hands-on activities. C. They are afraid of making mistakes and failing. D. They prefer easy tasks over challenging ones. 39. What lesson can we learn from professor Carol Dweck’s experiment? A. Praise promotes children’s self-confidence. B. Keep children away from struggle and mistakes. C. Praise children for their devotion instead of their talent. D. Parents should give their children timely encouragement. 40. Who is the passage mainly intended for ? A. Professors. B. Parents. C. Researchers. D. Children. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.6分，满分13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。 How to Encourage Your High School Students to Do Their Best Encouraging your high school students to do their best isn’t as hard as you may think.

She wished her son Steve would visit her, even if for only a day. Of course, the young man had a family of his own now, a darling little daughter Eva, and a business to take care of. Steve got on video calls with Chloe every other day. However, Chloe missed her son and granddaughter, wishing she was with them. One day, Chloe heard sounds from the neighboring house. She looked through the window and was delighted to see that she had new neighbors. One morning, when Chloe woke up and walked along the shore, she heard the sounds of water being splashed and the sound of children laughing wildly. She followed the sound and was concerned on finding the twins from the neighboring house standing knee deep in ocean water. Something didn’t feel right. “Why would anyone leave their kids unattended on the shore?” Chloe thought. She grabbed the kids’ hands and walked them to their home. As Chloe opened the door, she found the young mother lying unconscious on the kitchen floor. Chloe didn’t waste a second in calling 911. The first responders managed to revive (恢复) her consciousness on the spot. “My boys! Ralph! Ray!” the woman cried out to her kids as the ambulance took her away. Chloe said, “Don’t worry. Everything will be all right. I’ll take care of your sweet boys.” She kept her promise and looked after the kids like a grandmother. She took Ralph and Ray in and let them sleep in the bedroom that was specially made for her granddaughter Eva. It was during these days that she knew that the boys’ father died of illness. Chloe knew that the neighbor, Phoebe, had been trying to make ends meet by selling sweaters and socks that she knitted. Looking at Phoebe’s children eat and drink with such joy, she realized how much she longed to see her little Eva. By the time Phoebe came home from the hospital, the kids had already started calling Chloe “Grandma”. 72. （1-7题 每空填一个单词或词组） Chloe lived (1) ________in a big beautiful house by the ocean. ◆She (2) ________ with her son on the phone. ◆She (3) _________ her son and granddaughter very much.
