If you are a red person, you must be a true friend and you are willing to help people at any time. You are also good at making speeches. But you don’t like rules and sometimes you are crazy about something easily. If you are a blue person, you may be good at solving problems because you can organize things well. But sometimes you are easily sad and like to be alone. If you are a yellow person, you will care more about the result. You always want to be more successful. So, of course, sometimes you will care little about other people’s feelings. Now, let’s turn to the green people. They are friendly and easy to make friends with. But unlike the color green, they are boring and they are not willing to change. What is your color? 二、单项选择（10分） 21. —I hear you are learning the body language these days. —Yes, I hope to learn a new way of _________ with those who can’t hear us. A. communication B. condition C. situation D. instruction 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我听说你这些天正在学习身体语言。——是的，我希望学习一种新的交流方式，和那些听不见我们的人交流。 考查名词辨析。communication交流；condition条件；situation情形；instruction指示。根据“those who can’t hear us”可知，是为了和听不见的人交流。故选A。 22 —When will the football match between Nantong Zhiyun and Shanghai Haigang begin on TV? —Oh, it _________ for ten minutes, ending in 0:3. Zhiyun lost the game. A. has began B. has been on C. has been over D. has finished 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——电视上南通支云对阵上海海港的足球比赛什么时候开始？——哦，比赛已经结束了10分钟，以0:3结束。支云输了。 考查现在完成时。根据“for ten minutes”可知，时态为现在完成时，此处应用延续性动词，排除AD选项；又由“ending in 0:3. Zhiyun lost the game”可知，比赛已经结束。故选C。 23 I find this book ________ for a middle school student to read. There are very few new words. A. enough easy B. enough easily C. easily enough D. easy enough 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：我发现这本书对一个中学生来说很容易读。生词很少。 考查形容词和enough的用法。分析句子结构可知，“this book”在句中作宾语，此处应用形容词easy作宾语补足语，说明宾语的性质或特征；修饰形容词时enough应是副词，意为“足够地”，必须后置。故选D。 24. When you go to a foreign country for the first time, you may not know ________. But soon you’ll get used to the life there. A. why to go there B. who to care about C. how to ask for help D. what to do at home 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：当你第一次去外国时，你可能不知道如何寻求帮助。但很快你就会习惯那里的生活。 考查“疑问词+不定式”结构。why to go there错误结构；who to care about关心谁；how to ask for help如何寻求帮助；what to do at home在家做什么。根据“When you go to a foreign country for the first time, you may not know...”可知，首次到国外可能不知道如何寻求帮助。故选C。 25. —What do you think of A Dream of Red Mansions, the great classical Chinese novel? —I’ve no idea. I ________ only half of it, and I will try to finish it by the weekend. A. was reading B. am reading C. have read D. will read 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你如何看待伟大的中国古典小说《红楼梦》？——我不知道。我只读了一半，我会争取在周末之前完成。 考查时态。根据“only half of it, and I will try to finish it by the weekend”可知此处表示过去的动作对现在的影响，用现在完成时have/has done。故选C。 26. —Daddy, when can I go to the sports centre with my friend? —________. A. Until you finish your homework. B. Until you will finish your homework. C. Not until you finish your homework. D. Not until you will finish your homework. 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——爸爸，我什么时候可以和我的朋友去体育中心？——直到你完成作业。 考查时间状语从句。until表示“直到……”，not until表示“直到……才”，此处是表示“直到你完成作业，你才可以去体育中心”，用not until；until引导时间状语从句，符合“主将从现”的时态规则，until后是从句，用一般现在时。故选C。 27. You don’t know what great trouble I had ________ my broken watch work again. A. made B. making C. to making D. make 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：你不知道使我的坏表又恢复工作时遇到了多大的麻烦。 考查动名词。根据“have trouble doing”做某事有麻烦，所以横线上是动名词making。故选B。 28. Our teacher always tell us to finish our homework ________. A. at a time B. at times C. on time D. at all times 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们的老师总是告诉我们要按时完成作业。 考查介词短语。at a time每次；at times有时；on time及时；at all times在任何时候。根据“Our teacher always tell us to finish our homework”可知，是要按时完成作业。故选C。 29. _______ of them ________ to play the violin. How talented (有天赋的). A. Either; has can B. Either; has been able C. both; have could D. neither; has be able to 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：他们中的任何一个都会拉小提琴。多么有天赋啊。 考查代词和情态动词的用法。either表示“两者中的任何一个”；both表示“两者都”；neither表示“两者都不”。has can错误形式； has been able现在完成时形式；have could错误形式；either of...表示“两者中的任何一个”作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式；both of...表示“两者都”，作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式；neither of...表示“两者都不”，作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。根据“...of them...to play the violin. How talented   (有天赋的).”可知，has been able 符合语法和句子意思。故选B。 30. —Could you look after my plants while I’m away on business, please? —________. I’ll water them on time. A. Come on B. With pleasure C. My pleasure D. You’re welcome 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我出差期间，你能照看我的植物吗？——很乐意。我会按时给它们浇水的。 考查情景交际。Come on加油；With pleasure很乐意；My pleasure我的荣幸；You’re welcome不客气。根据“Could you look after my plants while I’m away on business, please?”及“I’ll water them on time.”可知，应表达很乐意帮忙。故选B。 三、完形填空（本题共15小题；每小题1分, 满分15分） 请认真阅读下面短文, 从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Stitch after stitch，Amy is embroidering（刺绣）her hand-made napkin． “Well，Amy，how are you getting on？” cried Lizzy，whose ___31___ seemed to fly over her work． “Not very fast，”replied quiet little Amy．Meanwhile, she didn’t ___32___ her eyes，“I have almost finished one side．” “One side!”said Lizzy，with an unpleasant laugh，“Why，we both began sewing（缝制）at the same time，and I’m now at the fourth side of mine！” “I know that I am ___33___，but I’ll try to be steady（稳的），and to do my best．”said the little girl，as she went on with her work． “As I sew so fast，”cried Lizzy，“I’m sure to have finished my napkin ___34___ before the bell rings for dinner．I’ll just run for a minute to the garden，to see if the roses are out：”—so， leaving her work on a chair，Lizzy ___35___ out of the room． Amy longed for the fresh air and the flowers，but her work must first be done．Steadily she laid down her broad hem and had finished the_____36_____side of her napkin before her sister came back． “Ah，you slow little thing！”cried Lizzy．“You will ___37___ get up to me．I’ll have time to go to my room and put up my new picture on the wall．” Off went joyful little Lizzy，Amy went on with her work．Before her sister ___38___ the room again，the third side of her napkin was done． “Had you not better finish your sewing？”said Amy．“It must be near the time for ___39___．” “Oh!

In February, the Chinese vlogger posted a video online. It was about how the BBC distorted (歪曲) news about China by using camera tricks. By April 7, the video had been viewed more than 13 million times on Sina Weibo. Damo Uncle said he made the video because he couldn’t stand how Western media reported China. There are few facts. In fact, facing distorted news made by some Western media, the Chinese public is no longer being silent, China Daily said. Social media platforms give them a place to show their anger and speak out. “In the past, members of the Chinese public were not used to, or could not make, communication with the world,” said Ji Zhiye, a member of the 13th National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC). “However, as they enjoy better lives and become more confident, they now have the time and are able to show their feeling over wrong information about China and openly discuss it.” For example, the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) recently said forced labor (强制劳动) might be used in Xinjiang, which is far from the truth. However, some Western companies, including H＆M and Nike, said they will stop using cotton from Xinjiang. These stores angered the Chinese public. They started the “I support Xinjiang cotton” campaign online. “We welcome criticism (批评) on China, but it should be fair and based on facts. Criticism based on lies and double standards is meaningless,” Damo Uncle said. 50. In Damo Uncle’s video, he said that ________. A. the BBC reported distorted news about China B. the BBC is famous for reporting distorted news C. camera tricks are necessary in news reports D. Chinese people were fooled by reports from the BBC 51. The underlined word “they” refers to ________ according to paragraph 3. A. the foreigners B. some Western media C. members of the Chinese public D. some social media platforms 52. Chinese people are no longer silent about the news because ________. a. social media platforms make it easier to show their feeling b. their country has become a developed country c. they have become more confident about their country d. they now live better lives and have time to show their feeling A. abc B. bcd C. acd D. abd 53.

They started the ‘I support Xinjiang cotton’ campaign online.”可知，关于新疆棉问题，中国人民对不公正的批评进行了反击。故选A。 C ①What would you like for lunch? Maybe, a battery (电池)? Although it sounds unusual, this has already been realized by scientists as they develop electronic (电子的) things you can eat. ②Robofood, a program led by Dario Floreano from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne, Switzerland, has been the trailblazer. Together with scientists from Wageningen University, the Netherlands, it has made a new drone (无人机). Half of the parts inside can be eaten! The program plans to create robots that can be eaten and foods that act like robots by mixing food science and robots in a new way. ③According to the scientists, the wings of the drone were made from rice cakes glued together using oil and chocolate. This drone can find missing people or animals in sudden serious and dangerous situations, and carry important food or medicine to them. Parts of the drone can be eaten since they meet food safety standards set up by the United Nations for emergencies. ④However, the main challenge is finding stronger edible (可食用的) materials for the drone’s wings to prepare for bad weather and high temperatures—of course, the chocolate may melt (融化) easily. ⑤Robofood also developed an edible sensor to help watch stomach sickness. It’s eaten by the patient to check the conditions inside. Unlike other sensors out there today, it’s designed to be easily digested (消化), lowering the risk of leaving any remains inside the body. ⑥The invention of Robofood also helps with environmental protection. The world’s first fully edible batteries can help with the growing problem of throwing away used batteries. The battery’s two ends are made of vitamin B2 and another natural element that can be found in many fruits including apples. So the new battery can be more friendly for nature. 54. Which of the following about Robofood’s drone is true? A. The materials of the drone are totally edible. B. The materials of the drone aren’t strong enough. C. The drone can be used in any dangerous situation. D. The drone is made of rice cakes, oil and chocolate. 55. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. Robofood’s sensors can stay in the human body longer. B. Robofood’s sensors can watch the stomach more carefully. C. Robofood’s batteries are expected to take the place of some fruit. D. Robofood’s batteries are the first batteries that can be totally eaten. 56. Which of the following can show the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 57. What can be the best title of the passage? A. Smart Drones B. Edible Electronics C. Robots and Foods D. Nature-friendly Batteries 【答案】54. D 55. D 56. C 57.

Mum has sweet memories of the food from her hometown in Sichuan, and often cooks spicy dishes. Because of this, Dad has come to love hot pot! But there are still some dishes that Dad dare not try even after many years of marriage to my mother. He once told me he was surprised by what he saw on the table when he first visited my mother’s parents in China. He was even shocked (震惊的) at their wedding when he saw how the Chinese ate almost every part of an animal. Even today, he still does not easily take (忍受) to eating things like chicken feet. But I enjoy that sort of food myself. Last week, I went to the butcher’s and asked, “Do you have pigs’ ears?” “No,” the butcher (屠夫) said, pulling at his own cars, “just these ordinary ones.” He must have thought I was joking. Dad can cook a super “full English breakfast” of bacon eggs, beans, sausages and toast with butter. Mum and I just have to find a way to get him into the kitchen! He also does a typical Sunday roast. We all love roast beef and vegetables, but Mum says we’d better not cat too much roast food as it may make us suffer from heat inside our bodies, according to traditional Chinese medicine. I’ll never forget my visit to China. Mum encouraged me to try different kinds of food, and I did! I loved everything. But just when I thought I could deal with all Chinese food, I came across stinky tofu, a terrible grey thing that looked and smelt like a burnt sports shoe. “You needn’t try it if you don’t want to,” Mum said, but I gathered all my courage to take a bite and was amazed to find it wasn’t that bad. It reminded me of blue cheese, a similarly strong smelling type of food you either love or hate. Maybe I’ll fall in love with stinky tofu someday. People say that one man’s meat is another man’s poison, but I feel at home with different food from both China and Britain. To me, there’s nothing better than a cross-cultural afternoon tea of English biscuits and a cup of Chinese oolong tea in a fine china cup! 58. What do you know about the writer’s taste for food? A. He prefers British food to Chinese food. B. He will never get used to Chinese oolong tea. C. He enjoys British food as well as Chinese food. D. He can deal with all Chinese food including stinky tofu. 59. What can we infer (推断) from the paragraphs 2 and 3? A. Almost no people in England eat pigs’ ears. B. The writer just wanted to play a trick on the butcher. C. The butcher was more interested in pigs’ ears than others. D. Pigs’ ears are popular in Britain, especially at their weddings. 60. What do you know about the writer’s father? A. He isn’t really interested in cooking. B. He likes easily prepared Chinese food. C. He always enjoys making meals with families. D. He likes all kinds of Chinese food especially hot pot. 61. What does the underlined sentence mean in paragraph 6? A. A good diet can build up one’s health. B. Some food can be harmful to health. C. People ought to try different foods. D. People have different tastes for food. 【答案】58. C 59. A 60. A 61. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了作者作为一个中英混血儿，经历着两种不同的文化，在饮食上也是妙趣横生。 【58题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Since I grew up in England with a British father and a Chinese mother, I’ve enjoyed food from both countries ever since I was able to hold a knife and fork—and chopsticks!”可知，作者从小就喜欢两个国家的食物。故选C。 【59题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Last week, I went to the butcher’s and asked, ‘Do you have pigs’ ears?’ ‘No,’ the butcher (屠夫) said, pulling at his own cars, ‘just these ordinary ones.’ He must have thought I was joking.”可知，作者去买猪耳朵，屠夫以为他在开玩笑，可推测出，在英国几乎没有人吃猪耳朵。故选A。 【60题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Mum and I just have to find a way to get him into the kitchen!”可知，作者的父亲对做饭不感兴趣。故选A。 【61题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“People say that one man’s meat is another man’s poison, but I feel at home with different food from both China and Britain.”可知，作者认为每个人的口味都不一样，但是他可以接受中英两个国家不同的食物。故选D。 E In Los Angeles, a waiter served a group of teens. The waiter remembered his experience as a young high school student. So he made sure the teens had a pleasant experience at the restaurant. The waiter made sure of it. After serving all the teens doing a great job, he was left a tip（小费）, only ＄3. 28. That was hardly enough to buy a drink at Starbucks. The waiter went home. And he felt angry for the students who did not know the value of hard work. They looked down on people like him. Or so he thought. After several days, the waiter forgot about it. His life went on as usual. But ten days later, he received a letter from the teens. About a week and a half ago, on October 7, my three friends and I came to eat at this restaurant as our own homecoming celebration. It was an exciting experience for us to be here alone, and it was all new to us. And you were the best waiter we could ask for. You were kind, helpful, and didn’t treat us like babies! So I want to say thank you for making our “grown—up” experience so amazing and fun. I would also like to say sorry on behalf of（代表）my group. Since we were new to all of this, reasonable（合乎情理）, but we had completely forgotten（and didn’t know, to be honest）what a tip even was, let alone how much to give. So we emptied our pockets, and all our money added up to $3. 28. Having no idea of how small this really was, we left. Later, we realized our mistake and felt terrible. We knew we had to make it right. “So together with this letter, you will find the correct 18% tip + extra for simply being amazing. Thank you for your help and patience and also thank you for making our night fun. Thank you!” 62. What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A. The waiter and the teens were classmates. B. The waiter treated the teens like babies C. The waiter tried his best to serve the teens D. The waiter tried to make them pay more 63. Which of the following statements is true? A. The teens looked down upon the waiter. B. The teens thought $3. 28 was enough for the tip. C. The teens weren’t pleased with the service. D. The teens didn’t know what a tip meant at first. 64. Why did the teens write the letter? A. Because they forgot to pay the bill. B. Because they realized they did something wrong. C. Because they felt sick after the meal. D. Because they wanted to know what a tip was. 65. What can we infer from the passage? A. Some waiters in the USA mind whether the tip is reasonable. B. Customers （顾客）should tip as much as possible. C. Waiters in the USA won’t serve customers without tip. D. Customers should be told how much to give as a tip. 【答案】62. C 63. D 64. B 65.

And did this person’s expectations and actions give you the confidence you needed to succeed? If so, then you’ve learned the Pygmalion effect (皮格马利翁效应). The Pygmalion effect means expectations will influence a person’s performance. ___66___ He found that when teachers told a student he or she had a gift in Chinese or Chemistry, the student would act better on tests than those who were not told so. The idea behind the Pygmalion effect is that people rise or fall to reach the expectations set for them. When someone is expected to be perfect, they are more likely to get the resources they need to succeed. ___67___ On the other hand, when someone is thought as less capable (能力不足), they may miss a lot of chances and resources, which can result in poorer performance and less success. ___68___ This effect can be seen in different environment. In the workplace, managers who have high expectations of their workers will be more supportive and provide better chances for their growth and development. ___69___ Similarly, coaches are more willing to spend extra time with athletes who they consider gifted. The extra attention helps these athletes to spend more time practicing their skills, so they improve faster than the other athletes. In both cases, the key is not only to have high expectations but also to communicate those expectations and create a suitable environment. ___70___ And we people can use this effect in our own lives by keeping high expectations for ourselves and those around us. 根据短文内容，从选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项。 A. Finally the effect becomes a kind of circle. B. This can lead to better performance and greater success. C. To get better results, extra time and hard work are especially needed. D. It’s no surprise that such an environment leads to better work performance E. This effect was found by Robert Rosentha in study “Pygmalion in the Classroom” in 1968. F. By setting expectations and giving support, teachers can use the effect to help more students. 【答案】66. E 67. B 68. A 69. D 70. F 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了皮格马利翁效应，即期望会影响一个人的表现。 【66题详解】 根据下文“He found that when teachers told a student he or she had a gift in Chinese or Chemistry, the student would act better on tests than those who were not told so.”可知，此处与皮格马利翁效应的发现者有关，因此E项“1968年，罗伯特·罗森塔在‘课堂上的皮格马利翁’研究中发现了这一效应”符合语境。故选E。 【67题详解】 根据上文“When someone is expected to be perfect, they are more likely to get the resources they need to succeed.”和下文“On the other hand, when someone is thought as less capable (能力不足), they may miss a lot of chances and resources, which can result in poorer performance and less success.”可知，前后形成对比，因此应该指更大的成功，因此B项“这可以带来更好的表现和更大的成功”符合情景。故选B。 【68题详解】 根据上文“When someone is expected to be perfect, they are more likely to get the resources they need to succeed...which can result in poorer performance and less success.”可知，此处指这种效果的循环，因此A项“最后，这种效果变成了一种循环”符合语境。故选A。 【69题详解】 根据上文“In the workplace,managers who have high expectations of their workers will be more supportive and provide better chances for their growth and development.”可知，此处与工作环境中的表现有关，因此D项“这样的工作环境会带来更好的工作表现，这并不奇怪”符合题意。故选D。 【70题详解】 根据下文“And we people can use this effect in our own lives by keeping high expectations for ourselves and those around us.”可知，此处指使用这个效应能产生的效果，因此F项“通过设定期望和给予支持，教师可以利用这种效果来帮助更多的学生”符合语境。故选F。 第二部分 非选择题部分（55）） 六、(共10小题;每小题1分, 满分10分) 词汇运用 J.

Rice is at the heart of human civilization (文明). It supports industry, inspires culture and feeds more than half of the world’s population. But the world is still struggling with hunger. The demand for food is far from enough. As the world’s population is about to reach 9.8 billion by 2050, we need to produce 60 percent more food with less land. That is not easy. We need more rice and better rice. Let’s have a look at what rice is made of. Normally, rice’s flower contains both female and male organs (蕊). That allows it to pollinate itself without the help of bees. Now, imagine there are two types of rice. Rice A is known for high yields (产量). Rice B can fight against stress of weather. Our goal is to create a super Rice C that contains the good advantage of both A and B. That means we need crossbreeding (杂交繁育). Now we have a hybrid with the high yield quality from A and resistant to stress of weather from B. So the key is to find this kind of rice. In 1970, Chinese scientist Yuan Longping and his team found “the magic plant”. Three years later, Yuan produced the world’s first hybrid rice-Nan You No. 2. With yields 20 percent above conventional varieties, his creation can feed over 70 million people each year. Today, hybrid rice is planted in more than half of total rice-growing area in China. It allows the country to feed a quarter of the world’s population with 7 percent of the arable (可开垦的) land. Yuan was later given the title of the “Father of Hybrid Rice”. And the influence of his technology goes beyond the national border. Now, hybrid rice is grown in Asia, America and Africa, even in sand and seashores. In this case, hybrid rice has served China well and it can also feed a better world. 91. How did rice affect the human civilization? ________________________________ 92. What’s the advantage of the super Rice C? ________________________________ 93. When did Yuan produce the world’s first hybrid rice-Nan You No. 2? ________________________________ 94. Why do we say Yuan’s technology goes beyond the national border? ________________________________ 95. What can we learn from the passage? (请自拟一句话作答) ________________________________ 【答案】91. It supports industry, inspires culture and feeds more than half of the world’s population. 92. It contains the good advantage of both A and B./ It not only has high yields but also can fight against stress of weather. 93. In 1973. 94. Because hybrid rice is grown in Asia, America and Africa, even in sand and seashores. 95. Hybrid rice has served China well and it could also feed a better world/ Yuan is our hero./We are proud of Yuan.… 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了水稻的重要性及中国科学家袁隆平成功培育出杂交水稻帮助解决了全球粮食问题。 【91题详解】 根据“It supports industry, inspires culture and feeds more than half of the world’s population.”可知，它支持工业，激发文化，养活世界上一半以上的人口。故填It supports industry, inspires culture and feeds more than half of the world’s population. 【92题详解】 根据“Rice A is known for high yields (产量).

In February, the Chinese vlogger posted a video online. It was about how the BBC distorted (歪曲) news about China by using camera tricks. By April 7, the video had been viewed more than 13 million times on Sina Weibo. Damo Uncle said he made the video because he couldn’t stand how Western media reported China. There are few facts. In fact, facing distorted news made by some Western media, the Chinese public is no longer being silent, China Daily said. Social media platforms give them a place to show their anger and speak out. “In the past, members of the Chinese public were not used to, or could not make, communication with the world,” said Ji Zhiye, a member of the 13th National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC). “However, as they enjoy better lives and become more confident, they now have the time and are able to show their feeling over wrong information about China and openly discuss it.” For example, the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) recently said forced labor (强制劳动) might be used in Xinjiang, which is far from the truth. However, some Western companies, including H＆M and Nike, said they will stop using cotton from Xinjiang. These stores angered the Chinese public. They started the “I support Xinjiang cotton” campaign online. “We welcome criticism (批评) on China but it should be fair and based on facts. Criticism based on lies and double standards is meaningless,” Damo Uncle said. 50. In Damo Uncle’s video, he said that ________. A. the BBC reported distorted news about China B. the BBC is famous for reporting distorted news C. camera tricks are necessary in news reports D. Chinese people were fooled by reports from the BBC 51. The underlined word “they” refers to ________ according to paragraph 3. A. the foreigners B. some Western media C. members of the Chinese public D. some social media platforms 52. Chinese people are no longer silent about the news because ________. a. social media platforms make it easier to show their feeling b. their country has become a developed country c they have become more confident about their country d. they now live better lives and have time to show their feeling A. abc B. bcd C. acd D. abd 53. As for the Xinjiang cotton problem ________. A. Chinese people fought back against unfair criticism B. Western media used camera tricks again C. many Western companies can make money from it D. labor problems in China have caught great attention C ①What would you like for lunch? Maybe, a battery (电池)? Although it sounds unusual, this has already been realized by scientists as they develop electronic (电子的) things you can eat. ②Robofood, a program led by Dario Floreano from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne, Switzerland, has been the trailblazer. Together with scientists from Wageningen University, the Netherlands, it has made a new drone (无人机). Half of the parts inside can be eaten! The program plans to create robots that can be eaten and foods that act like robots by mixing food science and robots in a new way. ③According to the scientists, the wings of the drone were made from rice cakes glued together using oil and chocolate. This drone can find missing people or animals in sudden serious and dangerous situations, and carry important food or medicine to them. Parts of the drone can be eaten since they meet food safety standards set up by the United Nations for emergencies. ④However, the main challenge is finding stronger edible (可食用的) materials for the drone’s wings to prepare for bad weather and high temperatures—of course, the chocolate may melt (融化) easily. ⑤Robofood also developed an edible sensor to help watch stomach sickness. It’s eaten by the patient to check the conditions inside. Unlike other sensors out there today, it’s designed to be easily digested (消化), lowering the risk of leaving any remains inside the body. ⑥The invention of Robofood also helps with environmental protection. The world’s first fully edible batteries can help with the growing problem of throwing away used batteries. The battery’s two ends are made of vitamin B2 and another natural element that can be found in many fruits including apples. So the new battery can be more friendly for nature. 54. Which of the following about Robofood’s drone is true? A. The materials of the drone are totally edible. B. The materials of the drone aren’t strong enough. C. The drone can be used in any dangerous situation. D. The drone is made of rice cakes, oil and chocolate. 55. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. Robofood’s sensors can stay in the human body longer. B. Robofood’s sensors can watch the stomach more carefully. C. Robofood’s batteries are expected to take the place of some fruit. D. Robofood’s batteries are the first batteries that can be totally eaten. 56. Which of the following can show the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 57. What can be the best title of the passage? A. Smart Drones B. Edible Electronics C. Robots and Foods D. Nature-friendly Batteries D Since I grew up in England with a British father and a Chinese mother, I’ve enjoyed food from both countries ever since I was able to hold a knife and fork—and chopsticks! Mum has sweet memories of the food from her hometown in Sichuan, and often cooks spicy dishes. Because of this, Dad has come to love hot pot! But there are still some dishes that Dad dare not try even after many years of marriage to my mother. He once told me he was surprised by what he saw on the table when he first visited my mother’s parents in China. He was even shocked (震惊的) at their wedding when he saw how the Chinese ate almost every part of an animal. Even today, he still does not easily take (忍受) to eating things like chicken feet. But I enjoy that sort of food myself. Last week, I went to the butcher’s and asked, “Do you have pigs’ ears?” “No,” the butcher (屠夫) said, pulling at his own cars, “just these ordinary ones.” He must have thought I was joking. Dad can cook a super “full English breakfast” of bacon, eggs, beans, sausages and toast with butter. Mum and I just have to find a way to get him into the kitchen! He also does a typical Sunday roast. We all love roast beef and vegetables, but Mum says we’d better not cat too much roast food as it may make us suffer from heat inside our bodies, according to traditional Chinese medicine. I’ll never forget my visit to China. Mum encouraged me to try different kinds of food, and I did! I loved everything. But just when I thought I could deal with all Chinese food, I came across stinky tofu, a terrible grey thing that looked and smelt like a burnt sports shoe. “You needn’t try it if you don’t want to,” Mum said, but I gathered all my courage to take a bite and was amazed to find it wasn’t that bad. It reminded me of blue cheese, a similarly strong smelling type of food you either love or hate. Maybe I’ll fall in love with stinky tofu someday. People say that one man’s meat is another man’s poison, but I feel at home with different food from both China and Britain. To me, there’s nothing better than a cross-cultural afternoon tea of English biscuits and a cup of Chinese oolong tea in a fine china cup! 58. What do you know about the writer’s taste for food? A. He prefers British food to Chinese food. B. He will never get used to Chinese oolong tea. C. He enjoys British food as well as Chinese food. D. He can deal with all Chinese food including stinky tofu. 59. What can we infer (推断) from the paragraphs 2 and 3? A. Almost no people in England eat pigs’ ears. B. The writer just wanted to play a trick on the butcher. C. The butcher was more interested in pigs’ ears than others. D. Pigs’ ears are popular in Britain, especially at their weddings. 60. What do you know about the writer’s father? A. He isn’t really interested in cooking. B. He likes easily prepared Chinese food. C. He always enjoys making meals with families. D. He likes all kinds of Chinese food especially hot pot. 61. What does the underlined sentence mean in paragraph 6? A. A good diet can build up one’s health. B. Some food can be harmful to health. C. People ought to try different foods. D. People have different tastes for food. E In Los Angeles, a waiter served a group of teens. The waiter remembered his experience as a young high school student. So he made sure the teens had a pleasant experience at the restaurant. The waiter made sure of it. After serving all the teens doing a great job, he was left a tip（小费）, only ＄3. 28. That was hardly enough to buy a drink at Starbucks. The waiter went home. And he felt angry for the students who did not know the value of hard work. They looked down on people like him. Or so he thought. After several days, the waiter forgot about it. His life went on as usual. But ten days later, he received a letter from the teens. About a week and a half ago, on October 7, my three friends and I came to eat at this restaurant as our own homecoming celebration. It was an exciting experience for us to be here alone, and it was all new to us. And you were the best waiter we could ask for. You were kind, helpful, and didn’t treat us like babies! So I want to say thank you for making our “grown—up” experience so amazing and fun. I would also like to say sorry on behalf of（代表）my group. Since we were new to all of this, reasonable（合乎情理）, but we had completely forgotten（and didn’t know, to be honest）what a tip even was, let alone how much to give. So we emptied our pockets, and all our money added up to $3. 28. Having no idea of how small this really was, we left. Later, we realized our mistake and felt terrible. We knew we had to make it right. “So together with this letter, you will find the correct 18% tip + extra for simply being amazing. Thank you for your help and patience and also thank you for making our night fun. Thank you!” 62. What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A. The waiter and the teens were classmates. B. The waiter treated the teens like babies C. The waiter tried his best to serve the teens D. The waiter tried to make them pay more 63. Which of the following statements is true? A. The teens looked down upon the waiter. B. The teens thought $3. 28 was enough for the tip. C. The teens weren’t pleased with the service. D. The teens didn’t know what a tip meant at first. 64. Why did the teens write the letter? A. Because they forgot to pay the bill. B. Because they realized they did something wrong. C. Because they felt sick after the meal. D. Because they wanted to know what a tip was. 65. What can we infer from the passage? A. Some waiters in the USA mind whether the tip is reasonable. B. Customers （顾客）should tip as much as possible. C. Waiters in the USA won’t serve customers without tip. D. Customers should be told how much to give as a tip. 五、信息还原(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分) Have you ever received extra support from a teacher or coach who believed you were born to be successful? And did this person’s expectations and actions give you the confidence you needed to succeed? If so, then you’ve learned the Pygmalion effect (皮格马利翁效应). The Pygmalion effect means expectations will influence a person’s performance. ___66___ He found that when teachers told a student he or she had a gift in Chinese or Chemistry, the student would act better on tests than those who were not told so. The idea behind the Pygmalion effect is that people rise or fall to reach the expectations set for them. When someone is expected to be perfect, they are more likely to get the resources they need to succeed. ___67___ On the other hand, when someone is thought as less capable (能力不足), they may miss a lot of chances and resources, which can result in poorer performance and less success. ___68___ This effect can be seen in different environment. In the workplace, managers who have high expectations of their workers will be more supportive and provide better chances for their growth and development. ___69___ Similarly, coaches are more willing to spend extra time with athletes who they consider gifted. The extra attention helps these athletes to spend more time practicing their skills, so they improve faster than the other athletes. In both cases, the key is not only to have high expectations but also to communicate those expectations and create a suitable environment. ___70___ And we people can use this effect in our own lives by keeping high expectations for ourselves and those around us. 根据短文内容，从选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项。 A. Finally the effect becomes a kind of circle. B. This can lead to better performance and greater success. C. To get better results, extra time and hard work are especially needed. D. It’s no surprise that such an environment leads to better work performance E. This effect was found by Robert Rosentha in study “Pygmalion in the Classroom” in 1968. F. By setting expectations and giving support, teachers can use the effect to help more students. 第二部分 非选择题部分（55）） 六、(共10小题;每小题1分, 满分10分) 词汇运用 J. K.

It supports industry, inspires culture and feeds more than half of the world’s population. But the world is still struggling with hunger. The demand for food is far from enough. As the world’s population is about to reach 9.8 billion by 2050, we need to produce 60 percent more food with less land. That is not easy. We need more rice and better rice. Let’s have a look at what rice is made of. Normally, rice’s flower contains both female and male organs (蕊). That allows it to pollinate itself without the help of bees. Now, imagine there are two types of rice. Rice A is known for high yields (产量). Rice B can fight against stress of weather. Our goal is to create a super Rice C that contains the good advantage of both A and B. That means we need crossbreeding (杂交繁育). Now we have a hybrid with the high yield quality from A and resistant to stress of weather from B. So the key is to find this kind of rice. In 1970, Chinese scientist Yuan Longping and his team found “the magic plant”. Three years later, Yuan produced the world’s first hybrid rice-Nan You No. 2. With yields 20 percent above conventional varieties, his creation can feed over 70 million people each year. Today, hybrid rice is planted in more than half of total rice-growing area in China. It allows the country to feed a quarter of the world’s population with 7 percent of the arable (可开垦的) land. Yuan was later given the title of the “Father of Hybrid Rice”. And the influence of his technology goes beyond the national border. Now, hybrid rice is grown in Asia, America and Africa, even in sand and seashores. In this case, hybrid rice has served China well and it can also feed a better world. 91. How did rice affect the human civilization? ________________________________ 92. What’s the advantage of the super Rice C? ________________________________ 93. When did Yuan produce the world’s first hybrid rice-Nan You No. 2? ________________________________ 94.
