One ____2____ think that a food shortage is happening in America, but this is not the case. There is more than sufficient food for everyone, 40% of which is unfortunately, wasted every day. There are many different ways ____3____food are wasted: farmers only pick the best-looking crops, deliveries aren’t made on time, supermarkets throw out extra products, customers buy more than they need, and so on. The highest level of wastage tends to happen in the richest communities. Meanwhile, people who live in poor or rural areas often have little or no access to food. These areas are called “food deserts.” They have fewer supermarkets, and the only food options that they can afford are often ____4____(healthy) ones. Healthy foods _____5_____ fresh fruits and vegetables may be impossible to find. Sadly, 12.8% of the American population live in food deserts. What can we do to help ____6____ who don’t have enough food? Shirley and Annie Zhu came up with a solution. In 2017, when Hurricane Harvey destroyed over 100,000 homes in their city, Houston, the sisters got started. When ____7____(involve) in clearing water from a flooded supermarket, they saw a huge amount of food ____8____(waste). At the same time, thousands of people in the city didn’t have enough to eat. The girls set up Fresh Hub with 10 of their classmates, hoping to do something to help. They created an app which could be used by residents to find out ____9____ fresh food was available. Then they contacted local farmers and supermarkets to ask for their extra food. Up to now, Fresh Hub ____10____ (deliver) more than 15,000 pounds of food to people in need. 【答案】1. Despite 2. might 3. that##in which 4. unhealthy 5. like 6. those 7. involved 8. being wasted 9. whether##if 10. has delivered 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了美国虽然是世界上最富有的国家之一，但是许多美国人甚至吃不饱。这主要是由于大量的食物浪费。于是，Shirley和Annie Zhu与她们的10位同学建立了Fresh Hub。迄今为止，已经为有需要的人运送了超过15,000磅的食物。 【1题详解】 考查介词。句意：尽管如此，许多美国人每天都在努力把健康的食物，或者任何食物放在餐桌上。结合句意可知此处表示“尽管”，使用介词despite，首字母应大写，故填Despite。 【2题详解】 考查情态动词。句意：有人可能会认为美国正在发生食物短缺，但事实并非如此。此处表示“可能”，表示可能性较小，使用情态动词might，故填might。 【3题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：食物浪费的方式有很多：农民只挑选最好看的作物，没有按时送货，超市扔掉多余的产品，顾客买的比他们需要的多，等等。空处引导定语从句，先行词是ways，关系词在从句中作状语，使用that或in which引导，为固定用法，故填that/in which。 【4题详解】 考查形容词。句意：他们的超市更少，他们唯一能负担得起的食物选择往往是不健康的。结合句意可知，此处表示“不健康的”，使用形容词unhealthy作定语，故填unhealthy。 【5题详解】 考查介词。句意：像新鲜水果和蔬菜这样的健康食品可能是不可能找到的。结合句意可知此处指“像……”，使用介词like，故填like。 【6题详解】 考查代词。句意：我们能做些什么来帮助那些没有足够食物的人呢？此处表示“那些人”，使用代词those，who引导定语从句对其进行修饰限定。故填those。 【7题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：在参与清理被洪水淹没的超市的水时，他们看到了大量食物被浪费掉。When引导时间状语从句，从句主语也是they，be involved in“参与”，故从句完整形式是When they were involved in clearing water from a flooded supermarket，当状语从句主语和主句主语一致且从句含有be动词时，可将从句主语和be动词省略，故填involved。 【8题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意同上。waste和food之间是被动关系，且此处表示动作正在进行，使用being done形式作宾补，故填being wasted。 【9题详解】 考查宾语从句。句意：他们开发了一个应用程序，居民可以用它来查找是否有新鲜食物。空处引导宾语从句，此处表示“是否有新鲜食物”或“哪儿有新鲜事物”，使用whether/if/where引导，故填whether/if/where。 【10题详解】 考查时态和主谓一致。句意：到目前为止，Fresh Hub已经向有需要的人运送了超过1.5万磅的食物。根据“Up to now”可知此处使用现在完成时，主语Fresh Hub表示单数意义，助动词使用has，故填has delivered。 Section B (Vocabulary) (10%) Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

When I first learned English in elementary school, my parents encouraged me to be excellent in English class because they believed it to be the key to success in America. It was an easy decision to suppress (抑制) Cantonese in an ___15___ to blend in and to feel more American. Over time, Cantonese played a smaller ___16___ in my life. It didn’t occur to me that my Cantonese was regressing until it was too late. First, my directions were off. I started saying jau, which means “right,” when I meant to say zo, which means “left.” Then, the names of colors started to ___17___ me. “I like your green dress”, I said to my mom in Cantonese once. “This is blue, silly!” she laughed. Eventually, I struggled to construct sentences altogether, often ___18___ words or failing completely to recall them.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. （A） Yes, I admit it. I’m a true, incurable book abuser (施虐人). I like to fold dog ears. I like to break my books open so that their backs crack. I had a friend, who loved rubbing all the pages. I have another friend who is the exact opposite. She needs to keep her books completely new. I understand her. But once I get to know the book, I can’t help but show it some tough love. Because, believe me, although it sounds like I’m an abuser without a heart, that’s what it’s all about. Not hidden aggression, or a lack of respect; not at all. Let me explain. I have one book by my favourite author Diana Gabaldon that looks like rubbish. It’s completely wrinkled up from rain, and on its way to falling apart. I brought it like that to have her sign it. I hope she’s realized what an honour it is to her as a writer. It means, basically, that I’ve read the book to bits. I wouldn’t bother to mistreat books that don’t mean anything to me. Only the best books get read well, carried everywhere, worth intense reading where I’m so caught up with words that I will spill coffee over it. For my further defense, I would like to call in a witness. I have a cook book. Like almost all my other cook books, it’s worn, and there are dirty marks of food in it. The book is called Tex-Mex-Food, Music and the Joy of Life from Texas. Just as the title suggests, this is more than a cook book. These are the words on the very first page: Tex-Mex hasn’t been trendy for over 30 years. Considering it’s anything but cheap in calories, it probably never will be, either. Tacos (墨西哥卷) are instead all about such an untrendy things as a love for life. It’s something you enjoy while spending time with your loved ones ... We hope, therefore, that this cook book will soon be as dirty as a really old and used cook book should be. Oh, how true! How wonderfully put! And it’s the same thing for books: whether you’re a book preserver or a book abuser, the approach is based on love and a joy for life. Because I believe all who are passionate about books, are passionate people. 36. What does the author mean by being a “book abuser” according to the text? A. Treating books in a rough way. B. Marking books with dog ears. C. Keeping books in a new condition. D. Lacking respect for books. 37. According to the passage, the writer often does the following to his book except ________. A. have it dog-eared B. carry it everywhere C. keep it tidy D. have dirty marks in it 38. Why does the writer treat his favourite books badly? A. To cover up his disrespect for its author. B. To conceal his aggression to things around. C. To express his objection to the book preserver. D. To show his strong affection for the book. 39. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. The defense of one who treats books badly. B. The reasons why a certain book is preferred. C. The book lovers’ different habits of reading. D. The different ways to treat different books. 【答案】36. A 37. C 38. D 39. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要介绍作者因为喜欢书而将书折角，弄褶皱，撕破等，其缘由都在于对书的喜爱，所以有这种行为的人是值得肯定和鼓励的。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I’m a true, incurable book abuser (施虐人). I like to fold dog ears. I like to break my books open so that their backs crack.(我是一个真正的、无可救药的虐书狂。我喜欢折角。我喜欢掰开书脊)”可知，作者说“虐书者”是指粗暴对待书籍。故选A。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I’m a true, incurable book abuser (施虐人). I like to fold dog ears. I like to break my books open so that their backs crack.(我是一个真正的、无可救药的虐书狂。我喜欢折角。我喜欢掰开书脊)”；第三段“Only the best books get read well, carried everywhere, worth intense reading where I’m so caught up with words that I will spill coffee over it.(只有最好的书才能读得很好，随身携带，值得一读，我被文字迷住了，以至于我会把咖啡洒在上面)”和第四段“Like almost all my other cook books, it’s worn, and there are dirty marks of food in it.(就像我几乎所有的其他烹饪书籍一样，它已经破旧不堪，里面有食物的脏痕迹)”可知，作者是一个虐书狂，作者会将书折角，随身携带和弄脏书，不可能将书保持得干净整洁。故选C。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“But once I get to know the book, I can’t help but show it some tough love.(但一旦我了解了这本书，我就忍不住对它表现出一些严厉的爱)”以及第三段“I have one book by my favourite author Diana Gabaldon that looks like rubbish. It’s completely wrinkled up from rain, and on its way to falling apart. I brought it like that to have her sign it. I hope she’s realized what an honour it is to her as a writer. It means, basically, that I’ve read the book to bits. I wouldn’t bother to mistreat books that don’t mean anything to me. Only the best books get read well, carried everywhere, worth intense reading where I’m so caught up with words that I will spill coffee over it.(我有一本我最喜欢的作家戴安娜·加巴尔登写的书，看起来像垃圾。它被雨水打得皱巴巴的，快要散架了。我这样带过来是为了让她签名。我希望她意识到，作为一名作家，这对她来说是一种荣誉。意思是，基本上，我已经把这本书读得支离破碎了。我不会费心去糟蹋那些对我毫无意义的书。只有最好的书才值得好好阅读，带到任何地方，值得我认真阅读，以至于我被文字所吸引，以至于把咖啡洒在上面。)”作者用具体实例介绍自己是如何对待最喜欢的书籍，可推断，貌似虐书的行为，是作者爱不释手的具体表现，即来表达他对这本书的强烈喜爱。故选D。 【39题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“And it’s the same thing for books: whether you’re a book preserver or a book abuser, the approach is based on love and a joy for life. Because I believe all who are passionate about books, are passionate people.(对于书也是一样：无论你是一个图书保管者还是一个图书滥用者，这种方法都是基于对生活的热爱和快乐。因为我相信所有热爱书籍的人，都是充满激情的人)”及全文可知，文章中作者以自己为例主要介绍许多人虐书是因为爱书，是值得提倡的，即文章的主旨是对书不好的人的辩护。故选A。 (B) More On: Go to greg Is omitting jobs from a resume lying? ----------------------- How to handle stress at work ------------------------ How can men and women work better together? ------------------------ How will cancer treatment affect my son’s resume? ------------------------ What to do if you drank too much at the company holiday party Letter 1 January 28, 2018 | 3:31pm I work for an e-commerce Website. If one of our merchandisers has a question or wants to make a correction, they e-mail the entire department. In my opinion, this is rude and unnecessary. It seems to me that mass e-mail is appropriate for good or neutral news, rather than making a correction. Do you agree? Moreover, if you were the recipient of the correction, how would you respond? The only people who should be included in an e-mail are those who need to know or respond. Including everyone is rude and unprofessional as well as annoying to recipients. It’s not like we don’t have enough in our inbox already. I don’t agree that e-mail is only for good or neutral news, however. Sometimes you need to alert people or create a record of bad news. But no one should use e-mail to blame other people. If you’ve got a problem with someone, pick up the phone or take it outside (for a coffee, not a fist fight…geez). As for how to respond, e-mail is usually ineffective for resolving conflict. Have a conversation with the sender and explain why his or her approach isn’t the best and what you recommend. Letter 2 January 14, 2018 | 9:24 pm It’s the start of a new year and I believe it’s time for a change. What’s the best way to explain to a prospective employer that you are in need of something new without seeming flighty and without complaining about your current employer? The new year is as good a time as any to take stock, but not the only reason for making a change. At least, that’s not what you communicate to a prospective employer. Your reason for looking for a new job is less important to your new employer than why you want to work there. Needing a change might be the catalyst(催化剂), but the job search is like dating, and you wouldn’t ask someone out and explain you’re just bored in your current relationship, right? At least I hope not, otherwise you’re likely to be as lonely as Barry Manilow sounds when he sings “It’s Just Another New Year’s Eve”. 40. What is discussed in the first letter? A. How to ask questions in a polite way. B. How to respond to a false charge. C. How to make a correction at work. D. How to handle rude mass emails at work. 41. According to Greg, expressing your dissatisfaction with your present job in an interview would be the same as __________. A. talking about your family issues in public B. complaining about your prior partner on a first date C. demonstrating your qualifications to your new boss D. bragging about your experience to your partner 42. It can be inferred that “go to greg” mainly offers advice on people’s __________. A. career choices B. social relationships C. working problems D. health problems 【答案】40. D 41. B 42. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇应用文，就两封信所反映的工作中的问题给出了针对性的建议。 【40题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文体特点可知本文是针对来信反映的问题给出建议，根据Letter 1中的“If one of our merchandisers has a question or wants to make a correction, they e-mail the entire department. In my opinion, this is rude and unnecessary.”可知，第一封反映的问题是如果一个业务员有问题或有需要改正的地方，他工作的单位会给整个部门发电子邮件，在他看来，这是粗鲁和不必要的，再结合回复中的 “I don’t agree that e-mail is only for good or neutral news, however. Sometimes you need to alert people or create a record of bad news. But no one should use e-mail to blame other people. If you’ve got a problem with someone, pick up the phone or take it outside (for a coffee, not a fist fight…geez). As for how to respond, e-mail is usually ineffective for resolving conflict. Have a conversation with the sender and explain why his or her approach isn’t the best and what you recommend.”可知，我不同意电子邮件只用于好消息或中性消息。有时候你需要提醒人们或者创造一个坏消息的记录。但是没有人应该用电子邮件来责怪别人。如果你和某人有问题，拿起电话或带到外面（喝杯咖啡，而不是拳打脚踢…天哪）。至于如何回复，电子邮件通常对解决冲突无效。与发信人交谈，解释为什么他/她的方法不是最好的，以及你推荐的方法，由此可知，第一封信主要讨论的是如何处理工作中粗鲁的群发邮件，故D项正确。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据Letter 2中的 “but the job search is like dating, and you wouldn’t ask someone out and explain you’re just bored in your current relationship, right? ”可知，格雷格认为找工作就像约会，你不会约别人出去解释你对现在的关系感到无聊，对吧？也就是说她认为，在面试中表达你对目前工作的不满，就像在第一次约会时抱怨你的前任一样，故B项正确。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。根据Letter 1中的“If one of our merchandisers has a question or wants to make a correction, they e-mail the entire department. In my opinion, this is rude and unnecessary.”可知，第一封信给出了如何处理工作中粗鲁的群发邮件的建议，根据Letter 2中的“What’s the best way to explain to a prospective employer that you are in need of something new without seeming flighty and without complaining about your current employer?”可知，第二封信给出的是换工作时怎样向新老板解释你换工作的原因而又不显得轻浮和不抱怨现在的老板的建议，这两封信反映的都是工作中的问题，因此go to greg向人们提供如何处理工作中的问题的建议，故C项正确。 【点睛】本篇第3题推理判断题难度较大，抓住两封信所反映的问题是关键，根据Letter 1中的“If one of our merchandisers has a question or wants to make a correction, they e-mail the entire department. In my opinion, this is rude and unnecessary.”可知，第一封信给出了如何处理工作中粗鲁的群发邮件的建议，根据Letter 2中的“What’s the best way to explain to a prospective employer that you are in need of something new without seeming flighty and without complaining about your current employer?”可知，第二封信给出的是换工作时怎样向新老板解释你换工作的原因而又不显得轻浮和不抱怨现在的老板的建议，这两封信反映的都是工作中的问题，因此go to greg向人们提供如何处理工作中的问题的建议。 (C) When we perceive other people, we seldom describe a person in cold and objective words. “She was 5 feet 8 inches tall, had fair hair, and wore a colored skirt.” More often, we try to get inside the other person to pinpoint his or her attitudes, emotions, motivations, abilities, ideas and characters. Furthermore, we sometimes behave as if we can accomplish this difficult job very quickly - perhaps with a two-second glance. We try to obtain information about others in many ways. Social scientist Berger suggests several methods for reducing uncertainties about others: watching, without being noticed, a person interacting with others, particularly with others who are known to you so you can compare the observed person’s behavior with the known others’ behavior; observing a person in a situation where social behavior is relatively unrestrained or where a wide variety of behavioral responses are called for; deliberately structuring the physical or social environment so as to observe the person’s responses to specific stimuli; asking people who have had or have frequent contact with the person about him or her; and using various strategies in face-to-face interaction to uncover information about another person: questions, self-disclosures (自我表露), and so on. Getting to know someone is a never-ending task, largely because people are constantly changing and the methods we use to obtain information are often imprecise. You may have known someone for ten years and still know very little about him. If we accept the idea that we won’t ever fully know another person, it enables us to deal more easily with those things that get in the way of accurate knowledge such as secrets and deceptions. It will also keep us from being too surprised or shocked by seemingly inconsistent behavior. Ironically those things that keep us from knowing another person too well (e.g., secrets and deceptions) may be just as important to the development of satisfying relationship as those things that enable us to obtain accurate knowledge about a person (e.g., disclosure and truthful statements). 43. The word “pinpoint” (in the 1st Para.) is closest in means to ______. A. appreciate B. activate C. identify D. influence 44. What do we learn from the first paragraph? A. People like to be described in cold, objective words. B. It is impossible to get inside of a person. C. It is difficult to describe a person in words. D. Getting to know a person is usually no easy job. 45. It can be inferred from Berger’s suggestions that ______. A. people do not reveal their true self on every occasion B. the best way to know a person is by making comparisons C. in most cases we should avoid contacting the observed person directly D. face-to-face interaction is the best strategy to uncover information about a person 46. The author’s purpose in writing the passage is to ______. A. discuss the various aspects of getting to know people B. provide ways of how to obtain information about people C. warn readers of the negative side of people’s characters D. give advice on appropriate behaviors for social occasions 【答案】43. C 44. D 45. C 46. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要向我们讲述了我们了解一个人是一件不容易的事情，并提出了观察他人的方法，作者通过这篇文章告诉我们要了解人的各个方面。 【43题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“When we perceive other people, we seldom describe a person in cold and objective words. “She was 5 feet 8 inches tall, had fair hair, and wore a colored skirt.” More often, we try to get inside the other person to pinpoint his or her attitudes, emotions, motivations, abilities, ideas and characters. (当我们看待别人的时候，我们很少用冷漠客观的语言来描述一个人。“她身高5英尺8英寸，金发，穿着一条彩色的裙子。”更多的时候，我们试图进入对方的内心，pinpoint他或她的态度、情感、动机、能力、想法和性格。)”可知我们试图进入对方的内心是为了发现他或她的态度、情感、动机、能力、想法和性格。所pinpoint和“identify”同义，意为“发现，识别”，故选C。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“More often, we try to get inside the other person to pinpoint his or her attitudes, emotions, motivations, abilities, ideas and characters. Furthermore, we sometimes behave as if we can accomplish this difficult job very quickly - perhaps with a two-second glance. (更多的时候，我们试图进入对方的内心，找出他或她的态度、情感、动机、能力、想法和性格。此外，我们有时表现得好像我们可以很快地完成这项困难的工作——也许只需要两秒钟的目光。)”可推断了解一个人通常不是一件容易的事。故选D。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Social scientist Berger suggests several methods for reducing uncertainties about others: watching, without being noticed, a person interacting with others, particularly with others who are known to you so you can compare the observed person’s behavior with the known others’ behavior; (社会科学家Berger提出了几种减少对他人不确定性的方法：在不被注意的情况下观察一个人与他人的互动，尤其是与你认识的人的互动，这样你就可以将观察到的人的行为与你认识的人的行为进行比较；)” 可知社会科学家Berger提出的建议是我们应该避免直接与所观察到的人接触，故选C。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其第一段“More often, we try to get inside the other person to pinpoint his or her attitudes, emotions, motivations, abilities, ideas and characters. Furthermore, we sometimes behave as if we can accomplish this difficult job very quickly - perhaps with a two-second glance. (更多的时候，我们试图进入对方的内心，找出他或她的态度、情感、动机、能力、想法和性格。此外，我们有时表现得好像我们可以很快地完成这项困难的工作——也许只需要两秒钟的目光。)”；第二段“We try to obtain information about others in many ways. (我们试图通过多种方式获取他人的信息。)”和第三段“Getting to know someone is a never-ending task, largely because people are constantly changing and the methods we use to obtain information are often imprecise. (了解一个人是一项永无止境的任务，很大程度上是因为人是不断变化的，我们用来获取信息的方法往往是不精确的。)”可知作者的目的是告诉我们要了解人的各个方面，故选A。 Section C (8%) Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Is Human Brain Too Full? The brain is a seemingly endless library, whose shelves house our most precious memories as well as our lifetime’s knowledge. But is there a point where it reaches capacity? The answer is no, because brains are more complicated than that. Instead of just crowding in, old information is sometimes pushed out of the brain for new memories to form. Previous behavioral studies have shown that learning new information can lead to forgetting. ___47___ In daily life, forgetting actually has clear advantages. Imagine, for instance, that you lost your bank card. The new card you receive will come with a new personal identification number (PIN). Each time you remember the new PIN, you gradually forget the old one.___48___ And most of us may sometimes feel the frustration of having old memories interfere with new, relevant memories. Consider trying to remember where you parked your car in the same car park you were at a week earlier. This type of memory (where you are trying to remember new, but similar information) is particularly vulnerable to interference. ___49___ When we search information, both relevant and irrelevant information will appear. The majority of previous research has focused on how we learn and remember new information. But current studies are beginning to place greater emphasis on the conditions under which we forget, as its importance begins to be more appreciated. A very small number of people are able to remember almost every detail of their life. ___50___ In a sense, forgetting is how our brains categorize memories, so the most relevant memories are ready to be taken out. Normal forgetting may even be a safety mechanism to ensure our brain doesn’t become too full. A. While it may sound like an advantage to many, people with this rare condition often find their unusual ability stressful. B. But in a new study researchers demonstrated for the first time how this effect occurs in the brain. C. In the future, with the deepening of brain science research, human beings will eventually unlock the secrets of the brain. D. This process improves access to relevant information, without old memories interfering. E. When we obtain new information, the brain automatically attempts to make it into existing information by forming associations. F. The outside world is a judgment of the brain, but humans just don’t realize it. 【答案】47. B 48. D 49. E 50. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了大脑关于记忆和遗忘的机制设定和作用。 【47题详解】 根据上文“Previous behavioral studies have shown that learning new information can lead to forgetting. (先前的行为研究表明，学习新信息会导致遗忘)”以及后文介绍了新的研究发现，故本句与上文构成转折关系，故B选项“但在一项新的研究中，研究人员首次证明了这种效应是如何在大脑中发生的”符合语境，故选B。 【48题详解】 根据上文“Imagine, for instance, that you lost your bank card. The new card you receive will come with a new personal identification number (PIN). Each time you remember the new PIN, you gradually forget the old one.(想象一下，例如，你丢了你的银行卡。你收到的新卡将附带一个新的个人识别号码(PIN)。每次你记住新的密码，你就会逐渐忘记旧的)”以及后文“And most of us may sometimes feel the frustration of having old memories interfere with new, relevant memories.(我们大多数人有时会因为旧记忆干扰新的相关记忆而感到沮丧)”可知，本句承接上文进一步解释忘记旧密码的现象：这个过程在没有旧记忆干扰的情况下提高了对相关信息的获取。故D选项“这个过程在没有旧记忆干扰的情况下提高了对相关信息的获取”符合语境，故选D。 【49题详解】 根据后文“When we search information, both relevant and irrelevant information will appear. The majority of previous research has focused on how we learn and remember new information. But current studies are beginning to place greater emphasis on the conditions under which we forget, as its importance begins to be more appreciated.(当我们搜索信息时，相关和不相关的信息都会出现。之前的大部分研究都集中在我们如何学习和记忆新信息上。但是目前的研究开始更加强调我们遗忘的条件，因为它的重要性开始得到更多的认识)”可知，后文提到了搜索信息，可知本句是在说明搜索信息之前需要获得新信息。故E选项“当我们获得新信息时，大脑会自动尝试通过形成联想将其转化为现有信息”符合语境，故选E。 【50题详解】 根据上文“A very small number of people are able to remember almost every detail of their life.(只有极少数人能够记住他们生活中的几乎每一个细节)”可知，上文提到了极少数的人能记住，可知本句是在说明大多数人的记忆情况。故A选项“虽然对很多人来说，这听起来像是一种优势，但患有这种罕见疾病的人通常会觉得他们这种不寻常的能力很有压力”符合语境，故选A。 Ⅳ.GrammarⅡ(10%) 语法填空 Reconsidering the Staycation I’ve always been doubtful of the staycation. The newly-invented word is too cute for___51___ feels like a comfort: While other people are off exploring the Blue Lagoon by camper van, you get to stay in your very own home and go to your usual supermarket ____52____ cookies! So I am fascinated to discover, thanks to my colleague Catherine Pearson, that I ____53____ (understand) staycation in a wrong way. Evidently, my tendency to take a break ____54____ a plan is unlikely to produce a restorative effect. Instead, one should make good preparations for that period of time. Jaime Kurtz, a psychology professor at James Madison University and the author of “The Happy Traveler: Unpacking the Secrets of Better Vacations,” suggests everyone ____55____ (ask) himself, “If I were moving away soon, what would I most want to do, and who would I most want to spend time with?” I like this saying “Live every day ____56____ it were your last.” Any reminder ____57____ time is flying is a good one if it gets you to live better. This weekend, you could, for instance, seek out some vegan ice cream that doesn’t taste terrible. You could try running in a pool, which is easier on the joints but as effective as running on land. You could go for a walk or a drive ____58____ listening to “Slow Radio,” a very comforting BBC podcast ____59____ (feature) sounds of the natural world. Whether or not you have a proper vacation planned for the coming weeks, you could envision any coming weekend as its own two-day mini-break, programming it as you would have a trip to somewhere new, with a journey _____60_____ (exciting) than just “sleep as much as possible” and “mow the lawn”. 【答案】51. what 52. for 53. have understood 54 without 55. should ask##ask 56. as if 57. that 58. while 59. featuring 60. more exciting 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章分享了作者对“居家度假”这个词的理解发生转变的经历，一开始他持怀疑的态度，认为居家休息根本算不上是度假，后来多亏了同事，他察觉自己的理解有误，领悟到如果为此做好准备的话，这会让人活得更好，得到恢复身心的效果。 【51题详解】 考查宾语从句。句意：这个新发明的词太可爱了，感觉不像是一种安慰：当别人开着露营车去探索蓝湖的时候，你可以呆在自己的家里，去你常去的超市买饼干！空处引导名词性从句作介词for的宾语，宾语从句缺少主语，结合“feels like a comfort”可知，主语指物，应用连接代词what作引导词。故填what。 【52题详解】 考查介词。句意：这个新发明的词太可爱了，感觉不像是一种安慰：当别人开着露营车去探索蓝湖的时候，你可以呆在自己的家里，去你常去的超市买饼干！根据“go to your usual supermarket”和“cookies”可推知，此处表示“去你常去的超市买饼干”，也就是“为了要，为了得到”饼干，空处应用表示该意思的介词for。故填for。 【53题详解】 考查时态和主谓一致。句意：因此，多亏了我的同事Catherine Pearson，我惊奇地发现，我对居家度假的理解是错误的。空处作从句的谓语，结合第一段中“I’ve always been doubtful of the staycation.”可知，此处表示过去发生的动作“理解”一直延续到现在，时态应用现在完成时，且主语为I，助动词用have。故填have understood。 【54题详解】 考查介词。句意：显然，我没有计划地休息的倾向不太可能产生恢复的效果。表示“不要，没有”用介词without。故填without。 【55题详解】 考查虚拟语气。句意：詹姆斯·麦迪逊大学的心理学教授、《快乐的旅行者：解开更好假期的秘密》一书的作者杰米·库尔茨建议每个人都问问自己：“如果我很快就要离开了，我最想做什么？我最想和谁共度时光？”suggest“建议”后的宾语从句用虚拟语气，从句谓语部分为(should) do。故填(should) ask。 【56题详解】 考查状语从句。句意：我喜欢这句话：“把每一天都当作最后一天来过。”表示“似乎，好像”应用as if，引导方式状语从句，从句用虚拟语气。故填as if。 【57题详解】 考查同位语从句。句意：任何提醒你时间飞逝的东西都是好的，如果它能让你活得更好的话。引导同位语从句，说明reminder的内容，从句不缺少成分和句意，应用that引导。故填that。 【58题详解】 考查状语从句。句意：你可以边散步或开车边听“慢速广播”，这是一个非常舒适的BBC播客，以自然世界的声音为特色。引导时间状语从句，表示“同时”用while，状语从句运用了省略形式，完整的句子为while you are listening to “Slow Radio,” a very comforting BBC podcast   (feature) sounds of the natural world.。故填while。 【59题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：你可以边散步或开车边听“慢速广播”，这是一个非常舒适的BBC播客，以自然世界的声音为特色。空处作podcast的后置定语，是非谓语动词，feature“以……为特色”和podcast逻辑上是主动关系，应用feature的现在分词形式。故填featuring。 【60题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：不管你在接下来的几周是否有一个合适的假期计划，你都可以把即将到来的周末想象成一个为期两天的小假期，把它安排成一个去新地方的旅行，一个比“尽可能多地睡觉”和“修剪草坪”更令人兴奋的旅行。根据“than”可知，此处在作比较，空处应用exciting的比较级形式。故填more exciting。 Ⅴ.Translation(20%) Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets. 61. 在购买学校用品时，学生很少用现金支付，更倾向于线上支付，因为这种方式更高效便捷。（lean）（汉译英） _________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】When purchasing school supplies, students rarely pay with cash, leaning towards online payment methods as they are more efficient and convenient. 【解析】 【详解】考查状语从句和短语。when引导时间状语从句，表示“购买学校用品”用purchasing school supplies，为状语从句的省略，且用现在分词表示主动关系；主句主语为复数名词students；表示“很少用现金支付”翻译为rarely pay with cash；表示“更倾向于线上支付”应用现在分词短语leaning towards online payment methods，与students构成主动关系，用现在分词作状语；as引导原因状语从句，主语为they，指代支付方式；表示“更高效便捷”翻译为be more efficient and convenient。陈述事实用一般现在时。故翻译为When purchasing school supplies, students rarely pay with cash, leaning towards online payment methods as they are more efficient and convenient. 62. 在决定是否捐钱给慈善机构前，捐赠者会考虑很多因素，包括这个项目的实际影响。（consideration） _________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Before deciding whether to donate money to a charity, donors will take many factors into consideration, including the actual impact of the project. 【解析】 【详解】考查动词和名词。分析句子可知，表示“在决定是否捐钱给慈善机构前”应用Before deciding whether to donate money to a charity，这里deciding为动名词形式，作介词后宾语，whether to donate money to a charity(是否捐钱给慈善机构)，为whether to do形式，作动词decide后宾语；表示“捐赠者会考虑很多因素”应用donors will take many factors into consideration，时态为一般将来时表将来情况，其中take... into consideration，表“把…… 考虑在内”，为固定搭配；表示“包括这个项目的实际影响”应用including the actual impact of the project，表示“包括”用including，为介词，后接名词或名词短语，这里the actual impact of the project(这个项目的实际影响) 作其宾语。故翻译为Before deciding whether to donate money to a charity, donors will take many factors into consideration, including the actual impact of the project. 63. 只有少数学生能够理解这个复杂的概念，其他学生都感到非常困惑，以至于有些不耐烦了。（handful）（汉译英） _________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Only a handful of students can understand this complex concept, while the rest of the students feel so extremely confused that they become a little impatient. 【解析】 【详解】考查固定短语和时态。表示“只有少数学生”翻译为only a handful of students，作主语；表示“理解”用动词understand，can后跟动词原形；表示“这个复杂的概念”为this complex concept；while表示前后文的对比关系；表示“其他学生”用the rest of the students；此处为句型so…that…；表示“感到非常困惑”可用feel so extremely confused；that从句主语为they；表示“有些不耐烦”可用become a little impatient，描述特定语境为一般现在时。故翻译为Only a handful of students can understand this complex concept, while the rest of the students feel so extremely confused that they become a little impatient. 64. 过去很多农村的孩子摸黑去上学，如今有太阳能路灯照亮道路，孩子们最终能够在明亮而安全的环境中行走。（end） _________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】In the past, many rural children went to school in the dark.

Volunteering at the library would provide you with an opportunity to serve your community directly. On the other hand, participating in the beach cleanup project would allow you to contribute to environmental conservation efforts. Having said that, if I had to choose, I would lean towards the beach cleanup project.

One ____2____ think that a food shortage is happening in America, but this is not the case. There is more than sufficient food for everyone, 40% of which is unfortunately, wasted every day. There are many different ways ____3____food are wasted: farmers only pick the best-looking crops, deliveries aren’t made on time, supermarkets throw out extra products, customers buy more than they need, and so on. The highest level of wastage tends to happen in the richest communities. Meanwhile, people who live in poor or rural areas often have little or no access to food. These areas are called “food deserts.” They have fewer supermarkets, and the only food options that they can afford are often ____4____(healthy) ones. Healthy foods _____5_____ fresh fruits and vegetables may be impossible to find. Sadly, 12.8% of the American population live in food deserts. What can we do to help ____6____ who don’t have enough food? Shirley and Annie Zhu came up with a solution. In 2017, when Hurricane Harvey destroyed over 100,000 homes in their city, Houston, the sisters got started. When ____7____(involve) in clearing water from a flooded supermarket, they saw a huge amount of food ____8____(waste). At the same time, thousands of people in the city didn’t have enough to eat.

It doesn’t feel like the sudden, sharp pain of losing someone you love, but ___11___ a dull ache that builds slowly until it becomes a part of you. My first language, Cantonese, is the only one I share with my parents. As it ___12___ from my memory, I also lose my ability to communicate with them. I was born in New York City and spent most of my childhood in Brooklyn speaking Cantonese. It was (and still is) the only language that my parents understand. In the 1980s, they ___13___ to the U.S. from China’s Guangdong Province. The jobs they found in kitchens and garment factories came with long hours, ___14___ them no time to learn English. When I first learned English in elementary school, my parents encouraged me to be excellent in English class because they believed it to be the key to success in America. It was an easy decision to suppress (抑制) Cantonese in an ___15___ to blend in and to feel more American. Over time, Cantonese played a smaller ___16___ in my life. It didn’t occur to me that my Cantonese was regressing until it was too late. First, my directions were off. I started saying jau, which means “right,” when I meant to say zo, which means “left.” Then, the names of colors started to ___17___ me. “I like your green dress”, I said to my mom in Cantonese once. “This is blue, silly!” she laughed. Eventually, I struggled to construct sentences altogether, often ___18___ words or failing completely to recall them. It’s deeply frustrating to be unable to express thoughts that I so eagerly want to share with my parents. We have no heart-to-heart conversations or mutual understanding. My heart aches, knowing that there’s a distance between us that may never fully be ___19___. My parents are in their 60s now. There’s no ___20___ the fact that we have a limited amount of time together. So I made it a goal to relearn Cantonese and, ultimately, rebuild the relationship with my parents, for I don’t want the language barrier to disconnect us anymore. III.

According to a global survey by the U.K. based charity Oxfam, pasta is number one, ahead of meat, rice and pizza. ___21___ being popular in European countries, pasta is one of the favorites in countries such as the Philippines, Brazil and South Africa. Global sales figures also ___22___ the world’s love affair with pasta — they have risen from U.S. $13bn in 2003 to U.S. $16bn in 2010. Analysts predict sales will hit U.S.$19bn by 2015, ___23___ rising wheat costs. So how did the dish so closely ___24___ Italy become a staple of so many tables around the globe? It’s because it is cheap, versatile and convenient, says Jim Winship from the U.K.-based Pizza, Pasta and Italian Food Association. A sauce to go with it can be made from simple ___25___. “You can create lots of ___26___ dishes with it. It tastes good and it’s filling.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. （A） Yes, I admit it. I’m a true, incurable book abuser (施虐人). I like to fold dog ears. I like to break my books open so that their backs crack. I had a friend, who loved rubbing all the pages. I have another friend who is the exact opposite. She needs to keep her books completely new. I understand her. But once I get to know the book, I can’t help but show it some tough love. Because, believe me, although it sounds like I’m an abuser without a heart, that’s what it’s all about. Not hidden aggression, or a lack of respect; not at all. Let me explain. I have one book by my favourite author Diana Gabaldon that looks like rubbish. It’s completely wrinkled up from rain, and on its way to falling apart. I brought it like that to have her sign it. I hope she’s realized what an honour it is to her as a writer. It means, basically, that I’ve read the book to bits. I wouldn’t bother to mistreat books that don’t mean anything to me. Only the best books get read well, carried everywhere, worth intense reading where I’m so caught up with words that I will spill coffee over it. For my further defense, I would like to call in a witness. I have a cook book. Like almost all my other cook books, it’s worn, and there are dirty marks of food in it. The book is called Tex-Mex-Food, Music and the Joy of Life from Texas. Just as the title suggests, this is more than a cook book. These are the words on the very first page: Tex-Mex hasn’t been trendy for over 30 years. Considering it’s anything but cheap in calories, it probably never will be, either. Tacos (墨西哥卷) are instead all about such an untrendy things as a love for life. It’s something you enjoy while spending time with your loved ones ... We hope, therefore, that this cook book will soon be as dirty as a really old and used cook book should be. Oh, how true! How wonderfully put! And it’s the same thing for books: whether you’re a book preserver or a book abuser, the approach is based on love and a joy for life. Because I believe all who are passionate about books, are passionate people. 36. What does the author mean by being a “book abuser” according to the text? A. Treating books in a rough way. B. Marking books with dog ears. C. Keeping books in a new condition. D. Lacking respect for books. 37. According to the passage, the writer often does the following to his book except ________. A. have it dog-eared B. carry it everywhere C. keep it tidy D. have dirty marks in it 38. Why does the writer treat his favourite books badly? A. To cover up his disrespect for its author. B. To conceal his aggression to things around. C. To express his objection to the book preserver. D. To show his strong affection for the book. 39. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. The defense of one who treats books badly. B. The reasons why a certain book is preferred. C. The book lovers’ different habits of reading. D. The different ways to treat different books.

If one of our merchandisers has a question or wants to make a correction, they e-mail the entire department. In my opinion, this is rude and unnecessary. It seems to me that mass e-mail is appropriate for good or neutral news, rather than making a correction. Do you agree? Moreover, if you were the recipient of the correction, how would you respond? The only people who should be included in an e-mail are those who need to know or respond. Including everyone is rude and unprofessional as well as annoying to recipients. It’s not like we don’t have enough in our inbox already. I don’t agree that e-mail is only for good or neutral news, however. Sometimes you need to alert people or create a record of bad news. But no one should use e-mail to blame other people. If you’ve got a problem with someone, pick up the phone or take it outside (for a coffee, not a fist fight…geez). As for how to respond, e-mail is usually ineffective for resolving conflict. Have a conversation with the sender and explain why his or her approach isn’t the best and what you recommend. Letter 2 January 14, 2018 | 9:24 pm It’s the start of a new year and I believe it’s time for a change. What’s the best way to explain to a prospective employer that you are in need of something new without seeming flighty and without complaining about your current employer? The new year is as good a time as any to take stock, but not the only reason for making a change. At least, that’s not what you communicate to a prospective employer. Your reason for looking for a new job is less important to your new employer than why you want to work there. Needing a change might be the catalyst(催化剂), but the job search is like dating, and you wouldn’t ask someone out and explain you’re just bored in your current relationship, right? At least I hope not, otherwise you’re likely to be as lonely as Barry Manilow sounds when he sings “It’s Just Another New Year’s Eve”. 40. What is discussed in the first letter? A. How to ask questions in a polite way. B. How to respond to a false charge. C. How to make a correction at work. D. How to handle rude mass emails at work. 41. According to Greg, expressing your dissatisfaction with your present job in an interview would be the same as __________. A. talking about your family issues in public B. complaining about your prior partner on a first date C. demonstrating your qualifications to your new boss D. bragging about your experience to your partner 42. It can be inferred that “go to greg” mainly offers advice on people’s __________. A. career choices B. social relationships C. working problems D. health problems (C) When we perceive other people, we seldom describe a person in cold and objective words. “She was 5 feet 8 inches tall, had fair hair, and wore a colored skirt.” More often, we try to get inside the other person to pinpoint his or her attitudes, emotions, motivations, abilities, ideas and characters. Furthermore, we sometimes behave as if we can accomplish this difficult job very quickly - perhaps with a two-second glance. We try to obtain information about others in many ways. Social scientist Berger suggests several methods for reducing uncertainties about others: watching, without being noticed, a person interacting with others, particularly with others who are known to you so you can compare the observed person’s behavior with the known others’ behavior; observing a person in a situation where social behavior is relatively unrestrained or where a wide variety of behavioral responses are called for; deliberately structuring the physical or social environment so as to observe the person’s responses to specific stimuli; asking people who have had or have frequent contact with the person about him or her; and using various strategies in face-to-face interaction to uncover information about another person: questions, self-disclosures (自我表露), and so on. Getting to know someone is a never-ending task, largely because people are constantly changing and the methods we use to obtain information are often imprecise. You may have known someone for ten years and still know very little about him. If we accept the idea that we won’t ever fully know another person, it enables us to deal more easily with those things that get in the way of accurate knowledge such as secrets and deceptions. It will also keep us from being too surprised or shocked by seemingly inconsistent behavior. Ironically those things that keep us from knowing another person too well (e.g., secrets and deceptions) may be just as important to the development of satisfying relationship as those things that enable us to obtain accurate knowledge about a person (e.g., disclosure and truthful statements). 43. The word “pinpoint” (in the 1st Para.) is closest in means to ______. A. appreciate B. activate C. identify D. influence 44. What do we learn from the first paragraph? A. People like to be described in cold objective words. B. It is impossible to get inside of a person. C. It is difficult to describe a person in words. D. Getting to know a person is usually no easy job. 45. It can be inferred from Berger’s suggestions that ______. A. people do not reveal their true self on every occasion B. the best way to know a person is by making comparisons C. in most cases we should avoid contacting the observed person directly D. face-to-face interaction is the best strategy to uncover information about a person 46. The author’s purpose in writing the passage is to ______. A. discuss the various aspects of getting to know people B. provide ways of how to obtain information about people C. warn readers of the negative side of people’s characters D. give advice on appropriate behaviors for social occasions Section C (8%) Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Is Human Brain Too Full? The brain is a seemingly endless library, whose shelves house our most precious memories as well as our lifetime’s knowledge. But is there a point where it reaches capacity? The answer is no, because brains are more complicated than that. Instead of just crowding in, old information is sometimes pushed out of the brain for new memories to form. Previous behavioral studies have shown that learning new information can lead to forgetting. ___47___ In daily life, forgetting actually has clear advantages. Imagine, for instance, that you lost your bank card. The new card you receive will come with a new personal identification number (PIN). Each time you remember the new PIN, you gradually forget the old one.___48___ And most of us may sometimes feel the frustration of having old memories interfere with new, relevant memories. Consider trying to remember where you parked your car in the same car park you were at a week earlier. This type of memory (where you are trying to remember new, but similar information) is particularly vulnerable to interference. ___49___ When we search information, both relevant and irrelevant information will appear. The majority of previous research has focused on how we learn and remember new information. But current studies are beginning to place greater emphasis on the conditions under which we forget, as its importance begins to be more appreciated. A very small number of people are able to remember almost every detail of their life. ___50___ In a sense, forgetting is how our brains categorize memories, so the most relevant memories are ready to be taken out. Normal forgetting may even be a safety mechanism to ensure our brain doesn’t become too full. A. While it may sound like an advantage to many, people with this rare condition often find their unusual ability stressful. B. But in a new study researchers demonstrated for the first time how this effect occurs in the brain. C. In the future, with the deepening of brain science research, human beings will eventually unlock the secrets of the brain. D. This process improves access to relevant information, without old memories interfering. E. When we obtain new information, the brain automatically attempts to make it into existing information by forming associations. F. The outside world is a judgment of the brain but humans just don’t realize it. Ⅳ.GrammarⅡ(10%) 语法填空 Reconsidering the Staycation I’ve always been doubtful of the staycation. The newly-invented word is too cute for___51___ feels like a comfort: While other people are off exploring the Blue Lagoon by camper van you get to stay in your very own home and go to your usual supermarket ____52____ cookies! So, I am fascinated to discover, thanks to my colleague Catherine Pearson, that I ____53____ (understand) staycation in a wrong way. Evidently, my tendency to take a break ____54____ a plan is unlikely to produce a restorative effect. Instead, one should make good preparations for that period of time. Jaime Kurtz, a psychology professor at James Madison University and the author of “The Happy Traveler: Unpacking the Secrets of Better Vacations,” suggests everyone ____55____ (ask) himself, “If I were moving away soon, what would I most want to do, and who would I most want to spend time with?” I like this saying “Live every day ____56____ it were your last.” Any reminder ____57____ time is flying is a good one if it gets you to live better. This weekend you could, for instance, seek out some vegan ice cream that doesn’t taste terrible. You could try running in a pool, which is easier on the joints but as effective as running on land. You could go for a walk or a drive ____58____ listening to “Slow Radio,” a very comforting BBC podcast ____59____ (feature) sounds of the natural world. Whether or not you have a proper vacation planned for the coming weeks, you could envision any coming weekend as its own two-day mini-break, programming it as you would have a trip to somewhere new, with a journey _____60_____ (exciting) than just “sleep as much as possible” and “mow the lawn”.
