Along the banks and in the currents of a wild river, Gus’s life is reshaped by the people he meets, the love he finds, and the fish he pursues with single-minded devotion. A Fly Rod of Your Own Author: John Gierach Year Published: 2017 It’s an insightful collection of essays that invite readers into the reflective world of fly-fishing. With grace and humor, Gierach takes us through streams, brooks, and backcountry wilderness, sharing tales of fish caught and released, the art of fly-tying, and the odd personalities encountered along the way.

B A visit to a water treatment plant inspired a pair of Texas teenagers to develop a device to deal with one of the most widespread forms of harmful waste of modern times: microplastics As detailed by Business Insider, Victoria Ou and Justin Huang, who have been friends since elementary school, won $50,000 after showcasing their ultrasonic microplastic filter (超声波微塑料过滤器). They revealed their device in May at the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) in Los Angeles in a remarkable display of young innovators working on projects to benefit humanity. Ou and Huang, both 17, told Insider that they initially connected their interest with environmental issues, but their visit to the water treatment plant was when the light bulb went on regarding their ISEF project. There, they discovered that the Environmental Protection Agency doesn’t regulate microplastics, meaning they remain in our wastewater. While microplastics are often undetectable at less than five millimeters in length, one study from Australia’s University of Newcastle estimates the average person consumes a credit card’s worth of plastics every week. And researchers believe this is having a big impact on our health, linking microplastics to cancer, dementia, reproductive disorders, and organ diseases. However, while existing microplastic removal methods have shown promise, Huang suggested they have their limitations, including high cost and the potential for pollution. To help address these filtering issues. Huang and Ou used ultrasound waves that pushed microplastics back without preventing the flow of water. According to a Society for Science news release, this method removed 84-94% of microplastics. In the future, the pair aim to scale up (扩大规模) their technology as an affordable method of removing microplastics at industrial plants, rural water sources, and more. Meanwhile, a smaller device could filter water at home on laundry days. “But first we have to refine it because this technology is still in its early stage,” Huang told Insider after Ou highlighted a previous ultrasound study where it also didn’t filter 100% of microplastics. 4. What does the underlined part “the light bulb went on” in paragraph 3 mean? A. An issue disappeared. B. A reward was secured. C. A device was revealed. D. An inspiration emerged. 5 What is paragraph 4 intended to show? A. The influence of the new device. B. The need to handle microplastics. C. The major causes of microplastics. D. The current serious water problem. 6. What is an advantage of Huang and Ou’s device according to the text? A It’s eco-friendly. B. It’s free of charge. C. It can reuse microplastics. D. It filters 100% of microplastics. 7. What is Huang’s opinion about the ultrasonic microplastic filter? A. It has a worrying future. B. It still needs perfecting. C. It has been well received. D. It is facing much criticism. C By the 17th century, humans hunted and killed almost all northern bald ibis birds in Central Europe. But breeding (饲养) and rewilding efforts over the last 20 years helped recover the bird population. However, the birds do not know which direction to fly to migrate (迁徙) without the guidance of wild-born birds. In 2002, Waldrappteam, a conservation and research group based in Austria, stepped in to help. Scientists at Waldrappteam raise the birds and teach them how to fly to warmer areas, increasing the number of the bird species in Central Europe from zero to almost 300 since the start of their project in 2002. Johannes Fritz, a biologist working with the team, said the group’s work was the first attempt to reintroduce a continentally extinct migratory bird species. He said his team found that, when released, the birds raised by humans flew in the wrong direction and died in winter. To prepare them for travel, humans begin working with the baby birds, or chicks, when they are just a few days old. Barbara Steininger, one Waldrappteam worker, said she acted like a bird mother. “We feed and clean them. We take good care of them and see that they are healthy birds,” she said. “We also interact with them so they will trust us along the migration route.” Steininger and the other workers then sit on the back of a very small aircraft, waving at and cheering for the birds as they fly. Fritz knew his work would be possible because he saw what Canadian inventor and naturalist Bill Lishman had done for some bird species. Fritz said “Lishman taught Canadian geese to fly alongside his small plane beginning in 1988 and later guided endangered whooping cranes through safe routes.” With the help of Fritz’s team, the first bird independently migrated back to Bavaria from Tuscany in 2011. This year, the route to Spain is longer than last year’s path. Earlier this month from an airfield in upper Bavaria, the team guided 36 birds along one stage through blue skies and a wind from behind them that increased their speed. 8. What is the problem with northern bald ibis birds raised by humans? A. They have lost the ability to fly. B. They refuse to fly to warmer areas. C. They can’t migrate in the right direction. D. They are unwilling to interact with humans. 9. What does Barbara Steininger mainly share? A. What birds learn to fly independently. B. How humans cheer for the flying birds. C. How humans and birds live in harmony. D. What to do to prepare the birds for travel. 10. Why does Fritz mention Lishman? A. Lishman’s achievement encouraged him a lot. B. Lishman worked with him at Waldrappteam. C. Lishman guided northern bald ibis birds to fly. D. Lishman’s passion for birds was fueled by him. 11. Which word can describe the efforts of Fritz’s team? A. Impractical. B. Rewarding. C. Short-lived. D. Time-saving. D Lack of sleep, typically defined as fewer than six hours per night, is a significant public health issue in industrialized countries. Poor sleep is linked to a range of unfavorable health outcomes, including non-communicable diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular conditions, as well as increased risks of death. New research led by the University of Exeter’s European Center for Environment and Human Health found that living on greener streets — those with visible grass, trees and vegetation — could help people sleep better. Lead author Dr Leanne Martin said, “People that lived on greener streets reported better mental health, which was the driving factor behind getting a better night’s sleep. Streetscape greening initiatives already exist in urban cities to tackle environmental risks like flooding and heat-island effects, but our findings suggest policymakers should extend that to residential areas to support public health by promoting healthier sleep habits.” Data was used from over 16,000 people across 14 European countries, as well as Australia, Canada, China and the USA. Participants were asked about the amount of greenery on their streets, how much leisure time spent in natural spaces, as well as their mental health and how many hours they slept a night. The research found individuals who lived on greener streets tended to report better mental health, which in turn was associated with healthier amounts of sleep. Overall results showed 17 percent of people who lived on green streets reported getting fewer than six hours of sleep a night, compared to 22 percent of those who did not live on green streets. Co-author of the study, Dr Mathew White, from the University of Vienna, said, “While a five percent difference may seem small, these findings are comparable to the difference in sleep between people who are living on their present income and those under financial pressure. With money worries widely recognized as an important determinant of sleep, I think this demonstrates street greenness should be recognized by governments as an important public health issue.” 12. What is Dr Leanne Martin’s advice for policymakers? A. Add scientific guidelines on health. B. Give a new definition of poor sleep. C. Make more plans to tackle natural disasters. D. Take steps to make residential areas greener. 13. What can we know about the research? A. It collected data from previous studies. B. Participants were people with poor sleep. C. It was only carried out in European countries. D. Participants needed to answer some questions. 14. What does Dr Mathew White mean? A. Money can’t determine health. B. Governments are reliable. C. The findings are still valuable. D. Street greenness is sufficient. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Greener Streets, Better Sleep B. Streets Are Becoming Greener C. Poor Sleep, a Big Health Issue D. A Greening Initiative Has Worked 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。 This has been a record year for people taking vacations and making trips abroad. But as many travelers learn, communicating with people in other parts of the world can be difficult. A language you studied in high school can be useful in many situations. ____16____. This is because knowing a language and being able to effectively communicate with it aren’t the same thing. ___17___, but they vary by country and sometimes even by region. These include politeness routines and the appropriate degree of formality to use when interacting with others. Some languages, like German or Spanish, have formality baked right into their vocabulary and grammar. Many language instructors suggest acquiring more formal constructions used in the target language. ____18____. However, this also means that a non-native speaker runs the risk of sounding like an oddly formal caveman. These communicative differences aren’t only linguistic (语言的), either. Consider something as basic as making eye contact with or greeting people you encounter on the street. ____19____. But in a different location, failing to make eye contact or acknowledge others might mark you as rude or unfriendly. This is true in the U. S. — the unwritten social rules governing looking someone in the eye or saying hello are different in urban areas and in rural settings. In addition, you must have some knowledge of the language’s slang (俚语) and idioms to avoid being offensive (冒犯的). The danger is that the appropriateness of such expressions is different in different social settings. ____20____. A. Making eye contact is part of communication B. In some places, doing so is considered impolite C. Using idioms correctly can be a challenging task D. Each culture has its own set of social rules and routines E. But such issues aren’t typically covered in introductory language classes F. That’s because being overly polite is less likely to offend than being too familiar G. However, even a well-intentioned tourist might annoy or offend native speakers of the language 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Hackett was hiking last April when he heard a faint (微弱的) sound.

He would spend hours glued to the screen, laughing at the silly behavior of the characters. He just regarded the cartoon characters as entertainment. However, a dream he had one day changed that. In the dream, Max found that his TV was broken. He tried everything he could think of to fix it, but nothing worked. Max was depressed. How could he watch his cartoons now? As he sat in his room, feeling sorry for himself, Max heard a strange noise coming from outside. He went to investigate and found a small and brightly colored creature sitting on his windowsill (窗台). “Who are you?” Max asked. “I’m a cartoon character,” the creature replied. Max couldn’t believe his ears. Cartoon characters were supposed to be on TV, not on his windowsill. The creature introduced himself as Blinky and explained that he and his friends had been forced out of the TV world by a bad guy named Zorg. They needed Max’s help to defeat Zorg and return to their rightful place on the screen. Max was hesitant at first, but he couldn’t resist the opportunity to explore the TV world and meet more funny cartoon characters. He agreed to help Blinky and his friends. Together, Max and the cartoon characters set out on a journey to defeat Zorg. Along the way to Zorg’s lair (果穴), they encountered all sorts of challenges. They had to cross dangerous rivers, climb steep mountains, and outsmart Zorg’s followers. As they traveled, Max got to know the cartoon characters better and developed friendships with them.

As detailed by Business Insider, Victoria Ou and Justin Huang, who have been friends since elementary school, won $50,000 after showcasing their ultrasonic microplastic filter (超声波微塑料过滤器). They revealed their device in May at the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) in Los Angeles in a remarkable display of young innovators working on projects to benefit humanity. Ou and Huang, both 17, told Insider that they initially connected their interest with environmental issues, but their visit to the water treatment plant was when the light bulb went on regarding their ISEF project. There, they discovered that the Environmental Protection Agency doesn’t regulate microplastics, meaning they remain in our wastewater. While microplastics are often undetectable at less than five millimeters in length, one study from Australia’s University of Newcastle estimates the average person consumes a credit card’s worth of plastics every week. And researchers believe this is having a big impact on our health, linking microplastics to cancer, dementia, reproductive disorders, and organ diseases. However, while existing microplastic removal methods have shown promise, Huang suggested they have their limitations, including high cost and the potential for pollution. To help address these filtering issues. Huang and Ou used ultrasound waves that pushed microplastics back without preventing the flow of water. According to a Society for Science news release, this method removed 84-94% of microplastics. In the future, the pair aim to scale up (扩大规模) their technology as an affordable method of removing microplastics at industrial plants, rural water sources, and more. Meanwhile, a smaller device could filter water at home on laundry days. “But first we have to refine it because this technology is still in its early stage,” Huang told Insider after Ou highlighted a previous ultrasound study where it also didn’t filter 100% of microplastics. 4. What does the underlined part “the light bulb went on” in paragraph 3 mean? A. An issue disappeared. B. A reward was secured. C. A device was revealed. D. An inspiration emerged. 5. What is paragraph 4 intended to show? A. The influence of the new device. B. The need to handle microplastics. C. The major causes of microplastics. D. The current serious water problem. 6. What is an advantage of Huang and Ou’s device according to the text? A. It’s eco-friendly. B. It’s free of charge. C. It can reuse microplastics. D. It filters 100% of microplastics. 7. What is Huang’s opinion about the ultrasonic microplastic filter? A. It has a worrying future. B. It still needs perfecting. C. It has been well received. D. It is facing much criticism. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了两位德克萨斯州青少年发明超声波微塑料过滤器处理微塑料。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。由文章第三段中“Ou and Huang, both 17, told Insider that they initially connected their interest with environmental issues, but their visit to the water treatment plant was (17岁的Ou和Huang告诉Insider，他们最初将兴趣与环境问题联系起来，但他们参观了水处理厂)”和“regarding their ISEF project. There, they discovered that the Environmental Protection Agency doesn’t regulate microplastics, meaning they remain in our wastewater. (关于他们的ISEF项目。在那里，他们发现环境保护局没有对微塑料进行监管，这意味着它们仍然存在于我们的废水中。)”可知，但是在参观了污水处理厂之后，他们关于ISEF项目的灵感突然闪现了出来。所以the light bulb went on在此处的意思是“一个灵感闪现了出来”，与An inspiration emerged“灵感出现了”意思相符。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第四段中“While microplastics are often undetectable at less than five millimeters in length, one study from Australia’s University of Newcastle estimates the average person consumes a credit card’s worth of plastics every week. And researchers believe this is having a big impact on our health, linking microplastics to cancer, dementia, reproductive disorders, and organ diseases. (虽然长度小于5毫米的微塑料通常难以察觉，但澳大利亚纽卡斯尔大学的一项研究估计，普通人每周会摄入相当于一张信用卡重量的塑料。研究人员认为，这对我们的健康影响很大，他们认为微塑料与癌症、痴呆症、生殖系统紊乱以及器官疾病都有关系。)”可知，第四段意在表明处理微塑料的必要性。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第五段“However, while existing microplastic removal methods have shown promise, Huang suggested they have their limitations, including high cost and the potential for pollution. To help address these filtering issues. Huang and Ou used ultrasound waves that pushed microplastics back without preventing the flow of water. According to a Society for Science news release, this method removed 84-94% of microplastics. (然而，尽管现有的微塑料去除方法已显示出希望，但Huang表示，这些方法存在局限性，包括成本高和可能造成污染。为了解决这些过滤问题，Huang和Ou使用了超声波，它能在不影响水流的情况下将微塑料推回。据科学促进会新闻稿报道，这种方法能去除84%至94%的微塑料。)”可知，现有方法存在“高成本”和“潜在污染”的局限，而他们的超声波技术通过声波分离微塑料且不阻碍水流，减少二次污染风险，因此更环保。故选A 【7题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段中“ “But first we have to refine it because this technology is still in its early stage,” Huang told Insider after Ou highlighted a previous ultrasound study where it also didn’t filter 100% of microplastics. (“但首先我们必须对其进行完善，因为这项技术仍处于早期阶段，”在Ou提到之前一项同样未能100%过滤微塑料的超声波研究后，Huang告诉《商业内幕》。)”可知，Huang对超声波微塑料过滤器的看法是它还需要完善。故选B。 C By the 17th century, humans hunted and killed almost all northern bald ibis birds in Central Europe. But breeding (饲养) and rewilding efforts over the last 20 years helped recover the bird population. However, the birds do not know which direction to fly to migrate (迁徙) without the guidance of wild-born birds. In 2002, Waldrappteam, a conservation and research group based in Austria, stepped in to help. Scientists at Waldrappteam raise the birds and teach them how to fly to warmer areas, increasing the number of the bird species in Central Europe from zero to almost 300 since the start of their project in 2002. Johannes Fritz, a biologist working with the team, said the group’s work was the first attempt to reintroduce a continentally extinct migratory bird species. He said his team found that, when released, the birds raised by humans flew in the wrong direction and died in winter. To prepare them for travel, humans begin working with the baby birds, or chicks, when they are just a few days old. Barbara Steininger, one Waldrappteam worker, said she acted like a bird mother. “We feed and clean them. We take good care of them and see that they are healthy birds,” she said. “We also interact with them so they will trust us along the migration route.” Steininger and the other workers then sit on the back of a very small aircraft, waving at and cheering for the birds as they fly. Fritz knew his work would be possible because he saw what Canadian inventor and naturalist Bill Lishman had done for some bird species. Fritz said, “Lishman taught Canadian geese to fly alongside his small plane beginning in 1988 and later guided endangered whooping cranes through safe routes.” With the help of Fritz’s team, the first bird independently migrated back to Bavaria from Tuscany in 2011. This year, the route to Spain is longer than last year’s path. Earlier this month from an airfield in upper Bavaria, the team guided 36 birds along one stage through blue skies and a wind from behind them that increased their speed. 8. What is the problem with northern bald ibis birds raised by humans? A. They have lost the ability to fly. B. They refuse to fly to warmer areas. C. They can’t migrate in the right direction. D. They are unwilling to interact with humans. 9. What does Barbara Steininger mainly share? A. What birds learn to fly independently. B. How humans cheer for the flying birds. C How humans and birds live in harmony. D. What to do to prepare the birds for travel. 10. Why does Fritz mention Lishman? A. Lishman’s achievement encouraged him a lot. B. Lishman worked with him at Waldrappteam. C. Lishman guided northern bald ibis birds to fly. D. Lishman’s passion for birds was fueled by him. 11. Which word can describe the efforts of Fritz’s team? A. Impractical. B. Rewarding. C. Short-lived. D. Time-saving. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了奥地利的一个保护研究团队如何通过人工饲养和引导迁徙的方式，帮助北秃鹮在中欧地区恢复种群数量。文章详细描述了科学家们的工作方法以及他们所面临的挑战和取得的成果。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“He said his team found that, when released, the birds raised by humans flew in the wrong direction and died in winter.(他说他的团队发现，当这些由人类饲养的鸟被释放时，它们会飞错方向并在冬天死亡)”可知，人类饲养的北秃鹮无法正确迁徙。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“To prepare them for travel, humans begin working with the baby birds, or chicks, when they are just a few days old.(为了让它们为旅行做好准备，人类在它们只有几天大时候就开始与幼鸟一起工作)”以及“We feed and clean them. We take good care of them and see that they are healthy birds.(我们喂养和清洁它们。我们好好照顾它们，确保它们是健康的鸟)”可知，Barbara Steininger主要分享了为鸟类旅行所做的准备工作。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Fritz knew his work would be possible because he saw what Canadian inventor and naturalist Bill Lishman had done for some bird species.(Fritz知道他的工作是可行的，因为他看到了加拿大发明家和博物学家Bill Lishman为一些鸟类所做的工作)”可推知，Lishman的成就极大地鼓舞了Fritz。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第六段“With the help of Fritz’s team, the first bird independently migrated back to Bavaria from Tuscany in 2011. This year, the route to Spain is longer than last year’s path. Earlier this month from an airfield in upper Bavaria, the team guided 36 birds along one stage through blue skies and a wind from behind them that increased their speed.(在弗里茨团队的帮助下，2011年第一只鸟独立从托斯卡纳迁徙回到巴伐利亚。今年飞往西班牙的路线比去年的路径更长。本月初，团队在巴伐利亚北部的一个机场引导36只鸟沿着一段路线飞行，天空湛蓝，背后的风速也提高了它们的速度)”可推知，Fritz团队的努力是富有成效的。故选B项。 D Lack of sleep, typically defined as fewer than six hours per night, is a significant public health issue in industrialized countries. Poor sleep is linked to a range of unfavorable health outcomes, including non-communicable diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular conditions, as well as increased risks of death. New research led by the University of Exeter’s European Center for Environment and Human Health found that living on greener streets — those with visible grass, trees and vegetation — could help people sleep better. Lead author Dr Leanne Martin said, “People that lived on greener streets reported better mental health, which was the driving factor behind getting a better night’s sleep. Streetscape greening initiatives already exist in urban cities to tackle environmental risks like flooding and heat-island effects, but our findings suggest policymakers should extend that to residential areas to support public health by promoting healthier sleep habits.” Data was used from over 16,000 people across 14 European countries, as well as Australia, Canada, China and the USA. Participants were asked about the amount of greenery on their streets, how much leisure time spent in natural spaces, as well as their mental health and how many hours they slept a night. The research found individuals who lived on greener streets tended to report better mental health, which in turn was associated with healthier amounts of sleep. Overall, results showed 17 percent of people who lived on green streets reported getting fewer than six hours of sleep a night, compared to 22 percent of those who did not live on green streets. Co-author of the study, Dr Mathew White, from the University of Vienna, said, “While a five percent difference may seem small, these findings are comparable to the difference in sleep between people who are living on their present income and those under financial pressure. With money worries widely recognized as an important determinant of sleep, I think this demonstrates street greenness should be recognized by governments as an important public health issue.” 12. What is Dr Leanne Martin’s advice for policymakers? A. Add scientific guidelines on health. B. Give a new definition of poor sleep. C. Make more plans to tackle natural disasters. D. Take steps to make residential areas greener. 13. What can we know about the research? A. It collected data from previous studies. B. Participants were people with poor sleep. C. It was only carried out in European countries. D. Participants needed to answer some questions. 14. What does Dr Mathew White mean? A. Money can’t determine health. B. Governments are reliable. C. The findings are still valuable. D. Street greenness is sufficient. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Greener Streets, Better Sleep B. Streets Are Becoming Greener C. Poor Sleep, a Big Health Issue D. A Greening Initiative Has Worked 【答案】12. D 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。研究表明，居住在街道绿化程度更高的住宅区有助于提升居民的睡眠质量。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Streetscape greening initiatives already exist in urban cities to tackle environmental risks like flooding and heat-island effects, but our findings suggest policymakers should extend that to residential areas to support public health by promoting healthier sleep habits.(城市中已经存在街景绿化计划，以应对洪水和热岛效应等环境风险，但我们的研究结果表明，政策制定者应该将其扩展到居民区，通过促进更健康的睡眠习惯来支持公众健康。)”可知，Dr Leanne Martin建议政策制定者采取措施绿化住宅区域。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Participants were asked about the amount of greenery on their streets, how much leisure time spent in natural spaces, as well as their mental health and how many hours they slept a night. The research found individuals who lived on greener streets tended to report better mental health, which in turn was associated with healthier amounts of sleep.( 参与者被问及他们街道上的绿化数量，在自然空间中度过的闲暇时间，以及他们的心理健康状况和每晚睡多少小时。研究发现，生活在绿色街道上的人往往心理健康状况更好，这反过来又与更健康的睡眠量有关。)”可知，参与者需要回答一些问题。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Co-author of the study, Dr Mathew White, from the University of Vienna, said, “While a five percent difference may seem small, these findings are comparable to the difference in sleep between people who are living on their present income and those under financial pressure. With money worries widely recognized as an important determinant of sleep, I think this demonstrates street greenness should be recognized by governments as an important public health issue.”(该研究的合著者、维也纳大学的Dr Mathew White说：“虽然5%的差异看起来很小，但这些发现与以目前收入生活的人和承受经济压力的人之间的睡眠差异相当。”由于人们普遍认为金钱担忧是影响睡眠的重要因素，我认为这表明政府应该认识到街道绿化是一个重要的公共卫生问题。”)”可知，这个数据差距虽然很小，但是类似于之前的其他研究，而之前的研究也得出了一定的结论。由此可推断，Dr Mathew White认为他们的研究发现还是有价值的。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“New research led by the University of Exeter’s European Center for Environment and Human Health found that living on greener streets—those with visible grass, trees and vegetation—could help people sleep better.(由埃克塞特大学欧洲环境与人类健康中心领导的一项新研究发现，生活在绿色街道上——那些可以看到草、树和植被的街道——可以帮助人们睡得更好。)”可知，本文主要介绍了一个新的研究发现—绿化更好的街道有助于提升睡眠质量。故选A。 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。 This has been a record year for people taking vacations and making trips abroad. But as many travelers learn, communicating with people in other parts of the world can be difficult. A language you studied in high school can be useful in many situations. ____16____. This is because knowing a language and being able to effectively communicate with it aren’t the same thing. ___17___, but they vary by country and sometimes even by region. These include politeness routines and the appropriate degree of formality to use when interacting with others. Some languages, like German or Spanish, have formality baked right into their vocabulary and grammar. Many language instructors suggest acquiring more formal constructions used in the target language. ____18____. However, this also means that a non-native speaker runs the risk of sounding like an oddly formal caveman. These communicative differences aren’t only linguistic (语言的), either. Consider something as basic as making eye contact with or greeting people you encounter on the street. ____19____. But in a different location, failing to make eye contact or acknowledge others might mark you as rude or unfriendly. This is true in the U. S. — the unwritten social rules governing looking someone in the eye or saying hello are different in urban areas and in rural settings. In addition, you must have some knowledge of the language’s slang (俚语) and idioms to avoid being offensive (冒犯的). The danger is that the appropriateness of such expressions is different in different social settings. ____20____. A. Making eye contact is part of communication B. In some places, doing so is considered impolite C. Using idioms correctly can be a challenging task D. Each culture has its own set of social rules and routines E. But such issues aren’t typically covered in introductory language classes F. That’s because being overly polite is less likely to offend than being too familiar G. However, even a well-intentioned tourist might annoy or offend native speakers of the language 【答案】16. G 17. D 18. F 19. B 20. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。讲述了了解一门语言和能够有效地用它进行交流并不是一回事。语言学习者需要知道如何以适当的方式使用它，因为语言的运用离不开该语言所基于的文化。 【16题详解】 根据空前“But as many travelers learn, communicating with people in other parts of the world can be difficult. A language you studied in high school can be useful in many situations.(但正如许多旅行者所了解的那样，与世界其他地区的人交流可能很困难。你在高中学习的语言在很多情况下都很有用)”及空后“This is because knowing a language and being able to effectively communicate with it aren’t the same thing.(这是因为了解一门语言和能够有效地用它进行交流并不是一回事)”可知，设空处是一个转折句，G项中的 the language指空前的A language you studied in high school，语义一致。故G项“然而，即使是一个善意的游客也可能会惹恼或冒犯以这种语言为母语的人”符合语境。故选G。 【17题详解】 根据空后“These include politeness routines and the appropriate degree of formality to use when interacting with others.(这些包括礼貌惯例和与他人互动时使用的适当的正式程度)”可知，本段主要是在介绍社会上的礼貌惯例，D选项中routines对应后文routines。D项“每种文化都有自己的一套社会规则和惯例”符合语境。故选D。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Many language instructors suggest acquiring more formal constructions used in the target language.(许多语言教师建议学习目标语言中使用的更正式的结构)”可知，上文建议学习目标语言中使用的更正式的结构，本句承接上文，说明原因。故F项“这是因为过于礼貌相比太熟悉更不容易冒犯他人”符合语境。故选F。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Consider something as basic as making eye contact with or greeting people you encounter on the street.(考虑一些最基本的事情，比如和你在街上遇到的人进行眼神交流或打招呼)”以及后文“But in a different location, failing to make eye contact or acknowledge others might mark you as rude or unfriendly.(但在另一个地方，没有眼神交流或不承认别人可能会给你留下粗鲁或不友好的印象)”可知，后文与本句构成转折关系，说明眼神交流的不同应用。B项中的doing so指代前面的making eye contact。故B项“在一些地方，这样做被认为是不礼貌的”符合语境。故选B。 【20题详解】 根据上文“In addition, you must have some knowledge of the language’s slang (俚语) and idioms to avoid being offensive (冒犯的). The danger is that the appropriateness of such expressions is different in different social settings.(此外，你必须了解一些该语言的俚语和习语，以避免冒犯。危险在于，在不同的社会环境中，这种表达的恰当性是不同的)”可知，本句进一步说明使用好俚语和习语很难的原因。故E项“但是这些问题通常没有包含在介绍性语言课程中”符合语境，故选E。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Hackett was hiking last April when he heard a faint (微弱的) sound.

He would spend hours glued to the screen, laughing at the silly behavior of the characters. He just regarded the cartoon characters as entertainment. However, a dream he had one day changed that. In the dream, Max found that his TV was broken. He tried everything he could think of to fix it, but nothing worked. Max was depressed. How could he watch his cartoons now? As he sat in his room, feeling sorry for himself, Max heard a strange noise coming from outside. He went to investigate and found a small and brightly colored creature sitting on his windowsill (窗台). “Who are you?” Max asked. “I’m a cartoon character,” the creature replied. Max couldn’t believe his ears. Cartoon characters were supposed to be on TV, not on his windowsill. The creature introduced himself as Blinky and explained that he and his friends had been forced out of the TV world by a bad guy named Zorg. They needed Max’s help to defeat Zorg and return to their rightful place on the screen. Max was hesitant at first, but he couldn’t resist the opportunity to explore the TV world and meet more funny cartoon characters. He agreed to help Blinky and his friends. Together, Max and the cartoon characters set out on a journey to defeat Zorg. Along the way to Zorg’s lair (果穴), they encountered all sorts of challenges. They had to cross dangerous rivers, climb steep mountains, and outsmart Zorg’s followers. As they traveled, Max got to know the cartoon characters better and developed friendships with them. Though Blinky and his friends were terrified sometimes, they never lost heart or thought of giving up their dream of going back to their TV world. Assisted by Max, Blinky and his friends fought their way to Zorg’s lair. 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。 After many days of travel, Max and the cartoon characters finally arrived at Zorg’s lair. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Max laughed out loud, eventually waking up from his dream ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 After many days of travel, Max and the cartoon characters finally arrived at Zorg’s lair. It was a dark and frightening place. Max’s heart pounded with nervousness. But he took a deep breath and, together with the cartoon characters, bravely walked in. They faced Zorg, who sneered at them. With quick thinking and teamwork, they managed to outwit Zorg and defeat him. With Zorg defeated, the cartoon characters were able to return to their rightful place on the TV screen. Max laughed while watching them go back to the TV world. Max laughed out loud, eventually waking up from his dream. Though realizing it was a dream, Max felt a sense of pride and accomplishment as he helped his friends and saved their day. More importantly, he learned that cartoon characters were more than just silly ones on the TV screen - they had unique personalities that made them special. Max decided not to take them for granted. Instead, he would watch them with a newfound appreciation, knowing that they were just as real as he was, with hopes and dreams of their own. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一个名叫马克斯的小男孩最喜欢看电视上他最喜欢的卡通片，他会一连几个小时盯着屏幕，嘲笑剧中人物的愚蠢行为。他只是把卡通人物当作娱乐。但是某一次他做梦梦到了卡通人物，并且帮助卡通人物打败了坏人，此后马克斯也改变了自己对卡通人物的看法。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“经过许多天的旅行，马克斯和卡通人物终于到达了佐格的巢穴。”可知，第一段可描写马克斯是如何和卡通人物一起打败坏人的。 ②由第二段首句内容“马克斯大声笑了起来，终于从梦中醒来。”可知，第二段可描写梦醒后马克斯对卡通人物的看法发生了改变。 2.续写线索：达到巢穴——打败坏人——梦醒——看法改变——马克斯感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/be aware of ②嘲笑：sneer at/tease ③击败：defeat/beat 情绪类 ①愚蠢：silly/stupid ②感激：appreciation/gratitude 【点睛】[高分句型1] They faced Zorg, who sneered at them.
