Shelby, the star of “A Dog’s Way Home,” has a hard-luck tale that could top them all. Before her big break, she was living in a landfill, rooting through garbage for her next meal. Shelby’s big break came in April 2017, when animal-control officer Megan Buhler was driving in Cheatham County. Tennessee. Out on an unrelated call, Buhler spotted and approached what she recalled was a noticeably scared puppy emerging from the dump. “I knelt down and just said, ‘Oh, come here, baby,’” said Buhler. “She was so scared, but she came right up to me, and I was able to put her in my truck.” The pair headed to the county animal shelter, where the staff began calling the new resident Baby Girl. Buhler and others didn’t know that 3,200 kilometers away, Hollywood was looking for a dog to play Bella in a film written by Cathryn Michon. The find-a-Bella job went to freelance trainer Teresa Ann Miler. Her mission was to search shelters nationwide for a dog that could play Bella. One day, Miller spotted Baby Girl’s adoption photo. “Honestly, it was a really good picture, and she was flat-out smiling,” Miller said. Then she met Baby Girl, and assessed her on personality and the ability to respond to simple commands. After assessment, she adopted Baby Girl from the shelter, renamed her Shelby and took her to California for training. Miller and Shelby trained for just over three months before filming began. Then they were together each day on the set. Most of the film’s reviews have praised Shelby’s performance. Variety made the comments “an amazing dog, perfect performance!” Shelby has come a long way from the dump. But Buhler said she saw Shelby recently had needed only a second to compare the movie star with the dog she found from piles of trash. “She’s exactly the same,” Buhler said. 24. Why does the author mention an actor’s struggle before a career breakthrough at the very beginning? A. To make a sharp contrast between an actor’s struggle and a dog’s struggle. B. To introduce a dog’s similar but even more striking experiences. C. To attract reader’s attention by giving dramatic examples. D. To clearly point out the main idea of the passage. 25 What finally helped Baby Girl get the big role in the film? A. Her adoption picture. B. Her flat-out smiling. C. her personality and ability. D. Her miserable experiences. 26. By saying “She is exactly the same” in the last paragraph, Buhler probably means _______. A. the dog returned to the piles of trash where she found it B. it took quite a lot of trouble for the dog to change her own fate. C. she’s really excited to see the dog she helped live such a happy life D. the dramatic change of the dog’s life hasn’t changed her inner quality 27. What do you think may serve as the best title of the passage? A. The Success of “A Dog’s Way Home” B. From a Landfill Puppy to a Movie Star C. The Trainer and Her Star Dog D. Shelby’s Hard-luck Story C Personality used to be a one-per-customer deal: like it or not, you were who you were, and lying to a pen pal was about the closest you could get to have a different ego. That was then. With the appearance of MySpace, Facebook, and other social networking sites, a second, carefully crafted identity is now available to anyone with an Internet connection. And that has psychologists wonder: just how well do these online personalities match the person sitting at the keyboard? The answer, it turns out, is pretty well. In a recent study of 133 undergraduates with Facebook profiles, University of Texas psychologist Samuel D. Gosling measured the correlation between personality tests online and off, and found — contrary to the assumption that social networking sites can’t capture one’s features—that the students represented themselves quite faithfully. Gosling surveyed the group on a standard five-point personality test, which measures extroversion (外向性), agreeableness, sense of responsibility, emotional stability, and openness to new experiences. Then he rated the same subjects based only on their Facebook profiles, which usually included photos and lists of interests, from academic majors to favorite books and movies. Gosling found a correlation between assessments in four of the five categories, with emotional stability as the only one showing no significant results across personal and online assessments.(Gosling says he was not surprised at the latter, since emotional stability is something that people are good at hiding across most media.)While extroversion showed the highest correlation, the study suggests that “openness to new experience” is perhaps better conveyed online than in person. “Facebook users don’t tend to put a lot of personal information on their pages, ” Gosling says, so someone who posted touching personal stories, for example, might come off as oversharing without intending to. In short, says Gosling, Facebook users aren’t generally using the site as an image buffer, a resume enhancer, or a separate self. “They just use it as a medium for social life.” 28. What is the usual assumption about social networking sites? A. They provide good study platforms. B. They contain totally fake information. C. They couldn’t show one’s real nature. D. They are friendly to various personalities. 29. Which showed no connection between personality tests online and off? A. Openness to new experience. B. Extroversion. C. Sense of responsibility. D. Emotional stability. 30. Why do Facebook users stay true to themselves online? A. True personality beautifies image. B. The site is a medium for social life. C. Only cheats invest in a false identity. D. Various interests can be shared there. 31. What’s the purpose of the text? A. To introduce a finding. B. To offer a recommendation. C. To defend a viewpoint. D. To present a phenomenon. D Vehicles on our roads are now mostly petrol and diesel (柴油) cars, but their days cannot continue for much longer. A recent university study found that current electric cars could be used for 87 percent of daily car journeys in the US. That figure could rise to 98 percent by 2020. One hurdle to the widespread adoption of electric cars has been “range anxiety” — drivers’ concerns about running out of electricity on a journey. While petrol stations are conveniently located across national road systems, the necessary network of electric charging stations is still being developed. That said, charging points are becoming increasingly common throughout the USA. Attitudes towards electric vehicles have changed greatly over the last few years. Not that long ago, electric cars were met with distrust, and their high prices drove customers away. Thanks to improvements in battery capacity, recharging times, performance and price, the current generation of electric cars are starting to persuade picky consumers. Plug-in cars will soon give internal combustion engine (内燃机) models a run for their money. As well as development on the road, electric vehicles are taking to the seas and skies. Electric boats are among the oldest methods of electric travel, having enjoyed several decades of popularity from the late 19th to the early 20th century before petrol-powered outboard motors took over. Now, the global drive for renewable energy sources is bringing electric boats back. Steps towards electric air travel are also being made, with Airbus and NASA among the organizations developing and testing battery-powered planes. The experiments could soon make commercial electric flight a reality. Electric vehicles do not produce any emissions (排放). If the US could replace 87 percent of its cars with electric vehicles, it would reduce the national demand for petrol by 61 percent. However, because of the production processes and the generation of electricity required to charge these vehicles, they cannot claim to be completely emission-free. That said, as many countries continue to increase their use of renewable energy sources, electric vehicles will become even cleaner. 32. What does the underlined word “hurdle” probably mean in Paragraph 2? A. Obstacle. B. Intention. C. Worry. D. Stage. 33. What will the future of plug-in cars be like? A. They will suffer disbelief because of battery capacity. B. The high price will put the future of electric cars at risk. C. They will not be widely promoted because of picky customers. D. They will compete with petrol and diesel cars fiercely for markets. 34. What can we learn about in Paragraph 4? A. The history of electric travel. B. Different ways electric vehicles can be used. C. Reasons why the world needs more electric cars. D. The trend that more people have interest in electric cars. 35. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Potentials of Petrol and Diesel Cars B. Challenges Facing Electric Cars C. A Cleaner Future on the Road D. Best Means of Transportation 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分， 满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Thrillers and romance and mystery, oh my! ___36___ And as someone with a massive to-be-read lineup, I sometimes wish I could flip the pages with a little more speed. If you’re also wondering how to read faster, you’re in luck. Here are some tips for how to read faster. Scan the text first. Before you kick off the speed-reading adventure, give the text a quick scan. ___37___ By giving your brain a pre view of the topic, you reduce time spent processing surprise information. This tip mainly applies to academic texts, but it can be a helpful strategy for any factual or how-to piece, from nonfiction books to news articles. Silence your inner subvocalizer. Subvocalizing is the act of silently saying words in your head as you read. It means you are taking the time to read each word and “hear” it in your head. Subvocalizing is a handy way to ensure you understand what you read, but it’s also a habit that can slow you down. ___38___ Mentally voicing the words you read can be a major roadblock to speed. Instead of silently mouthing each word, train your brain to process chunks of words. ___39___ Have you ever been deeply immersed in a story only to stop short at a word you don’t recognize? The stronger your vocabulary, the slimmer your chances of slowing down to puzzle over the meaning of a word. ___40___Reading news articles from the economics section can help you learn new financial terms. And reading nonfiction health books can help you pick up medical vocabulary terms you might not see otherwise. And remember: Becoming a speed reader is like learning to salsa dance. Start slow, find your rhythm, and soon you’ll be breezing through pages like a literary Zorro! A. Expand your vocabulary. B. A larger vocabulary really counts. C. Try to put your inner voice on vacation. D. Reading outside your usual categories and topics helps. E. There are almost too many great books to read in a lifetime. F. Fast reading helps you complete your booklist more efficiently. G. Look for titles, subtitles, and any visual cue that offers a roadmap. 第Ⅱ卷 注意：将答案写在答题纸上，写在本试卷上无效。 第三部分 语言运用(共三节，满分50分) 第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。 My Dad became the only parent after my mother’s death.

Ahmad nodded, grinning. “I know, but I think I can bring some fresh ideas. Do you know Olivia’s plans for the campaign?” Olivia, meanwhile, sat at her kitchen table with her twin sister. They were eating cupcakes while discussing what to put on the signs they planned to make. At the center of the table were posterboard in bright colors, markers, pens, colored pencils, and crayons. “Where should we start?” asked her sister ,brushing the cream from her hands. “What do you want people to know about you?” Olivia raised her head and thought for a moment. “I want them to know I’m a hard worker,“ she said, eyes bright and alert. “I have experience as class president. I also have a lot of ideas of making this a great school year.” “Experience is truly important,” commented her sister. “Dad once told me he would vote for someone who had proven to be the kind of leader he was looking for in his company.” An enormous grin spread across Olivia’s face. “What about Olivia for President-All Original, All Experience,” suggested her sister. “Oh, or Olivia for President, Opportunity for All?“ “I like both of those, ”exclaimed Olivia.“ The first one reminds the voters of my experience.

B 19. B 20. A 【解析】 【原文】Italian artist Jacopo Della Ragione’s works on display in Beijing have attracted many visitors. Jacopo was born in Forence in 1976, the art capital of Italy. Jacopo showed a strong interest in art in his childhood. While studying at the University of Milan, Jacopo took a master’s course in graphic design and printing technology. Before coming to China, Jacopo knew almost nothing about it. With a strong curiosity about this country, Jacopo moved to Beijing in 2001. “I planned to spend two weeks knowing about China ,but later I found the time was far from enough, and I’ve been here for more than 20 years until now,” Jacopo said. He created some paintings with traditional colors to show his love for traditional Chinese culture. The happiest time for Jacopo was after enjoying his artworks, some visitors who didn’t understand art began to show interest in it and realized art is part of their life. Having lived in China for more than two decades, Jacopo said he was amazed by the country’s rapid development. Now, he has put down roots in Beijing. “China and Italy have something in common — we both value family. I was born in Italy and live in China. China is now my home and I will continue to live and work here,” he said. 第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2. 5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从题中所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项涂黑。 A · Do an anonymous (匿名的) act of kindness for someone. · Leave a smile card behind to encourage them to pay-it-forward. · Share your story here to spread the inspiration. · hanged the world, one kind act at a time.

The idea is to do something kind for someone and then leave the Smile Card behind (当使用微笑卡片时，记住不要把它单独分发出去。这个想法是为别人做一些善良的事情，然后把微笑卡片留在身后)”可知，做一件善良的事情时，可以使用微笑卡，“你为一个穷朋友点了午餐”属于做的善事。故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章中的“Please tell us what inspired you to order Smile Cards, and give us an example of a kind act you'd like to do using them.(请告诉我们是什么激发了你订购微笑卡片，并给我们一个你想用它们做的善良行为的例子)”可知，要申请微笑卡片，需要告诉你想为别人做什么。故选D。 23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Note中的“so that they know someone reached out to them, and that they are invited to pay-forward the kindness and keep the rippled going!(这样他们就知道有人向他们伸出了援手，他们也被邀请来传递这种善良，让这种行为继续下去!)”可知，使用微笑卡是鼓励人们传递善良。故选A。 B We’ve all heard the stories of an actor’s struggles before a career breakthrough: living a hard life, working part time, being a couch potato before getting that major role. Shelby, the star of “A Dog’s Way Home,” has a hard-luck tale that could top them all. Before her big break, she was living in a landfill, rooting through garbage for her next meal. Shelby’s big break came in April 2017, when animal-control officer Megan Buhler was driving in Cheatham County. Tennessee. Out on an unrelated call, Buhler spotted and approached what she recalled was a noticeably scared puppy emerging from the dump. “I knelt down and just said, ‘Oh, come here, baby,’” said Buhler. “She was so scared, but she came right up to me, and I was able to put her in my truck.” The pair headed to the county animal shelter, where the staff began calling the new resident Baby Girl. Buhler and others didn’t know that 3,200 kilometers away, Hollywood was looking for a dog to play Bella in a film written by Cathryn Michon. The find-a-Bella job went to freelance trainer Teresa Ann Miler. Her mission was to search shelters nationwide for a dog that could play Bella. One day, Miller spotted Baby Girl’s adoption photo. “Honestly, it was a really good picture, and she was flat-out smiling,” Miller said. Then she met Baby Girl, and assessed her on personality and the ability to respond to simple commands. After assessment, she adopted Baby Girl from the shelter, renamed her Shelby and took her to California for training. Miller and Shelby trained for just over three months before filming began. Then they were together each day on the set. Most of the film’s reviews have praised Shelby’s performance. Variety made the comments “an amazing dog, perfect performance!” Shelby has come a long way from the dump. But Buhler said she saw Shelby recently had needed only a second to compare the movie star with the dog she found from piles of trash. “She’s exactly the same,” Buhler said. 24. Why does the author mention an actor’s struggle before a career breakthrough at the very beginning? A. To make a sharp contrast between an actor’s struggle and a dog’s struggle. B. To introduce a dog’s similar but even more striking experiences. C. To attract reader’s attention by giving dramatic examples. D. To clearly point out the main idea of the passage. 25. What finally helped Baby Girl get the big role in the film? A. Her adoption picture. B. Her flat-out smiling. C. her personality and ability. D. Her miserable experiences. 26. By saying “She is exactly the same” in the last paragraph, Buhler probably means _______. A. the dog returned to the piles of trash where she found it B. it took quite a lot of trouble for the dog to change her own fate. C. she’s really excited to see the dog she helped live such a happy life D. the dramatic change of the dog’s life hasn’t changed her inner quality 27. What do you think may serve as the best title of the passage? A. The Success of “A Dog’s Way Home” B. From a Landfill Puppy to a Movie Star C. The Trainer and Her Star Dog D. Shelby’s Hard-luck Story 【答案】24. B 25. C 26. D 27. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一只垃圾小狗到成为一名电影明星的引人注目的经历。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段We’ve all heard the stories of an actor’s struggles before a career breakthrough: living a hard life, working part time, being a couch potato before getting that major role. Shelby, the star of “A Dog’s Way Home,” has a hard-luck tale that could top them all. Before her big break, she was living in a landfill, rooting through garbage for her next meal. 我们都听过演员在事业上取得突破之前的挣扎故事：过着艰苦的生活，兼职工作，在得到那个主要角色之前成为一个电视迷。《一条狗的回家之路》中的明星谢尔比有一个倒霉的故事，可能会超过所有人。在她的重大突破之前，她住在垃圾堆里，翻着垃圾寻找下一顿饭。由此可知，作者在一开始就提到了一个演员在事业取得突破之前的挣扎，并介绍了一只狗的类似但更引人注目的经历。故选B。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中One day, Miller spotted Baby Girl’s adoption photo. “Honestly, it was a really good picture, and she was flat-out smiling,” Miller said. Then she met Baby Girl, and assessed her on personality and the ability to respond to simple commands.一天，米勒发现了Baby Girl的收养照片。米勒说：“说实话，这张照片拍得很好，她笑得很灿烂。”然后她遇到了Baby Girl，并对她的性格和对简单命令的反应能力进行了评估。由此可知，她的性格和能力最终帮助Baby Girl在电影中获得了重要角色。故选C。 【26题详解】 词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段中Most of the film’s reviews have praised Shelby’s performance. Variety made the comments “an amazing dog, perfect performance!”大多数影评都赞扬了谢尔比的表演。Variety评论道：“一只神奇的狗，完美的表演！”和最后一段Shelby has come a long way from the dump. But Buhler said she saw Shelby recently had needed only a second to compare the movie star with the dog she found from piles of trash. “She’s exactly the same,”谢尔比从垃圾场一路走来。但布勒说，她最近看到谢尔比只用了一秒钟就把这位电影明星和她在垃圾堆里找到的那条狗做了比较。“她完全一样”。由此可知，通过在最后一段中说“她完全一样”，布勒可能是指狗狗生活的巨大变化并没有改变她的内在品质。故选D。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。文章介绍了一只垃圾小狗到成为一名电影明星的引人注目的经历。所以B项From a Landfill Puppy to a Movie Star.(从垃圾小狗到电影明星)为最佳标题。故选B。 C Personality used to be a one-per-customer deal: like it or not, you were who you were, and lying to a pen pal was about the closest you could get to have a different ego. That was then. With the appearance of MySpace, Facebook, and other social networking sites, a second, carefully crafted identity is now available to anyone with an Internet connection. And that has psychologists wonder: just how well do these online personalities match the person sitting at the keyboard? The answer, it turns out, is pretty well. In a recent study of 133 undergraduates with Facebook profiles, University of Texas psychologist Samuel D. Gosling measured the correlation between personality tests online and off, and found — contrary to the assumption that social networking sites can’t capture one’s features—that the students represented themselves quite faithfully. Gosling surveyed the group on a standard five-point personality test, which measures extroversion (外向性), agreeableness, sense of responsibility, emotional stability, and openness to new experiences. Then he rated the same subjects based only on their Facebook profiles, which usually included photos and lists of interests, from academic majors to favorite books and movies. Gosling found a correlation between assessments in four of the five categories, with emotional stability as the only one showing no significant results across personal and online assessments.(Gosling says he was not surprised at the latter, since emotional stability is something that people are good at hiding across most media.)While extroversion showed the highest correlation, the study suggests that “openness to new experience” is perhaps better conveyed online than in person. “Facebook users don’t tend to put a lot of personal information on their pages, ” Gosling says, so someone who posted touching personal stories, for example, might come off as oversharing without intending to. In short, says Gosling, Facebook users aren’t generally using the site as an image buffer, a resume enhancer, or a separate self. “They just use it as a medium for social life.” 28. What is the usual assumption about social networking sites? A. They provide good study platforms. B. They contain totally fake information. C. They couldn’t show one’s real nature. D. They are friendly to various personalities. 29. Which showed no connection between personality tests online and off? A. Openness to new experience. B. Extroversion. C. Sense of responsibility. D. Emotional stability. 30. Why do Facebook users stay true to themselves online? A. True personality beautifies image. B. The site is a medium for social life. C. Only cheats invest in a false identity. D. Various interests can be shared there. 31. What’s the purpose of the text? A. To introduce a finding. B. To offer a recommendation. C. To defend a viewpoint. D. To present a phenomenon. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了心里学家通过实验证明Facebook用户总是在网上是保持自我，他们在线上和线下的性格匹配的很好，因为他们只是将网络当作社交生活的媒介。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“In a recent study of 133 undergraduates with Facebook profiles, University of Texas psychologist Samuel D. Gosling measured the correlation between personality tests online and off, and found — contrary to the assumption that social networking sites can’t capture one’s features—that the students represented themselves quite faithfully.(得克萨斯大学的心理学家Samuel D. Goslin最近对133名拥有Facebook资料的本科生进行了一项研究，他测量了线上和线下人格测试的关系，并发现，与社交无法捕捉一个人的特征的假设相反，学生们如实地表现了自己。)”可知，关于社交网站，常见的假设是网上无法正确地判定一个人的性格特征，因此网络不能表现出一个人的真实本性，故选C。 29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Gosling found a correlation between assessments in four of the five categories, with emotional stability as the only one showing no significant results across personal and online assessments.( Gosling发现，五个类别中，有四个类别的评估之间存在相关性，情绪稳定性是唯一一个在个人与在线评估中没有显著结果的类别。)”可知，情绪稳定性在线上和线下的测试中没有关联性，故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“In short, says Gosling, Facebook users aren’t generally using the site as an image buffer, a resume enhancer, or a separate self. “They just use it as a medium for social life.”(简而言之，Facebook的用户通常不会将该网站用作形象缓冲，简历的提升或者是独立的自我。“他们只是把它作为社交生活的媒介”。)”可知，Facebook的用户只是将网络作为社交生活的媒介，因此他们在网上保持自我，故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段末“And that has psychologists wonder: just how well do these online personalities match the person sitting at the keyboard?(这让心理学家们想知道：这些在线的个性与坐在键盘胖的人到底匹配得多好？)”可知，第一段末提出问题，这些人在线上的个性与本人到底匹配多少，第二段“The answer, it turns out, is pretty well.(事实证明，答案是很好。)”回答问题，并说明心理学家实验的过程，证明Facebook用户总是在网上是保持自我，因为他们只是将网络当做社交生活的媒介，故本文主要目的是为了介绍心理学家的发现，故选A。 D Vehicles on our roads are now mostly petrol and diesel (柴油) cars, but their days cannot continue for much longer. A recent university study found that current electric cars could be used for 87 percent of daily car journeys in the US. That figure could rise to 98 percent by 2020. One hurdle to the widespread adoption of electric cars has been “range anxiety” — drivers’ concerns about running out of electricity on a journey. While petrol stations are conveniently located across national road systems, the necessary network of electric charging stations is still being developed. That said, charging points are becoming increasingly common throughout the USA. Attitudes towards electric vehicles have changed greatly over the last few years. Not that long ago, electric cars were met with distrust, and their high prices drove customers away. Thanks to improvements in battery capacity, recharging times, performance and price, the current generation of electric cars are starting to persuade picky consumers. Plug-in cars will soon give internal combustion engine (内燃机) models a run for their money. As well as development on the road, electric vehicles are taking to the seas and skies. Electric boats are among the oldest methods of electric travel, having enjoyed several decades of popularity from the late 19th to the early 20th century before petrol-powered outboard motors took over. Now, the global drive for renewable energy sources is bringing electric boats back. Steps towards electric air travel are also being made, with Airbus and NASA among the organizations developing and testing battery-powered planes. The experiments could soon make commercial electric flight a reality. Electric vehicles do not produce any emissions (排放). If the US could replace 87 percent of its cars with electric vehicles, it would reduce the national demand for petrol by 61 percent. However, because of the production processes and the generation of electricity required to charge these vehicles, they cannot claim to be completely emission-free. That said, as many countries continue to increase their use of renewable energy sources, electric vehicles will become even cleaner. 32. What does the underlined word “hurdle” probably mean in Paragraph 2? A. Obstacle. B. Intention. C. Worry. D. Stage. 33. What will the future of plug-in cars be like? A. They will suffer disbelief because of battery capacity. B. The high price will put the future of electric cars at risk. C. They will not be widely promoted because of picky customers. D. They will compete with petrol and diesel cars fiercely for markets. 34. What can we learn about in Paragraph 4? A. The history of electric travel. B. Different ways electric vehicles can be used. C. Reasons why the world needs more electric cars. D. The trend that more people have interest in electric cars. 35. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Potentials of Petrol and Diesel Cars B. Challenges Facing Electric Cars C. A Cleaner Future on the Road D. Best Means of Transportation 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了汽油和柴油汽车虽然仍然主宰着我们的道路，但很快会被电动车辆所替代。电动汽车不产生任何排放物，随着在陆路方面的进步，电动汽车正朝着海洋和天空方向发展，而未来的车辆一定是电动时代。 【32题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“One hurdle to the widespread adoption of electric cars has been ‘range anxiety’—drivers’ concerns about running out of juice on a journey.(电动汽车被广泛采用的一个hurdle是‘里程焦虑’——驾驶者担心在旅途中电量耗尽)”可知，“驾驶员担心在旅途中耗尽电能”是电动汽车的缺点，这是电动汽车普及的一个“障碍，难关”。由此推知，划线词hurdle与obstacle意思一致，意为“障碍”。故选A项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Plug-in cars will soon give internal combustion engine (内燃机) models a run for their money.(插电式汽车将很快与内燃机汽车一较高下)”可知，插电式汽车即将具备与内燃机汽车争夺市场的能力。故选D项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“As well as development on the road, electric vehicles are taking to the seas and skies. Electric boats are among the oldest methods of electric travel, having enjoyed several decades of popularity from the late 19th to the early 20th century before petrol-powered outboard motors took over. Now, the global drive for renewable energy sources is bringing electric boats back. Steps towards electric air travel are also being made, with Airbus and NASA among the organizations developing and testing battery-powered planes.(除了在陆路上的发展，电动汽车正在走向海洋和天空。电动船是最古老的电动旅行方式之一，从19世纪末到20世纪初，在汽油动力的舷外发动机接管之前，它已经流行了几十年。现在，全球对可再生能源的推动正在使电动船回归。电动航空旅行也正在取得进展，空中客车公司和美国国家航空航天局等组织正在开发和测试电池驱动的飞机)”可知，电动交通工具以不同的方式出现在陆路、海上及空中。由此推知，第四段主要呈现了电动交通工具的不同的用途。故选 B项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Vehicles on our roads are now mostly petrol and diesel (柴油) cars, but their days cannot continue for much longer. A recent university study found that current electric cars could be used for 87 percent of daily car journeys in the US. That figure could rise to 98 percent by 2020.(汽油和柴油车可能仍然主宰着我们的道路，但它们的日子屈指可数了。一项最近的大学研究发现，目前美国 87%的日常汽车出行可以使用电动汽车。到2020年，这一数字可能上升到 98%)”和第四段中的“As well as development on the road, electric vehicles are taking to the seas and skies.(除了在公路上的发展，电动汽车正在走向海洋和天空)”和其他段落内容可知，文章介绍汽油和柴油交通工具可能仍然主宰着我们的道路，但很快会被电动交通工具所替代，而未来的交通工具一定是更清洁的电动时代。由此推知，C项“更清洁的未来在路上”一语双关，适合作为本文最佳标题。故选C项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分， 满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Thrillers and romance and mystery, oh my! ___36___ And as someone with a massive to-be-read lineup, I sometimes wish I could flip the pages with a little more speed. If you’re also wondering how to read faster, you’re in luck. Here are some tips for how to read faster. Scan the text first. Before you kick off the speed-reading adventure, give the text a quick scan. ___37___ By giving your brain a pre view of the topic, you reduce time spent processing surprise information. This tip mainly applies to academic texts, but it can be a helpful strategy for any factual or how-to piece, from nonfiction books to news articles. Silence your inner subvocalizer. Subvocalizing is the act of silently saying words in your head as you read. It means you are taking the time to read each word and “hear” it in your head. Subvocalizing is a handy way to ensure you understand what you read, but it’s also a habit that can slow you down. ___38___ Mentally voicing the words you read can be a major roadblock to speed. Instead of silently mouthing each word, train your brain to process chunks of words. ___39___ Have you ever been deeply immersed in a story only to stop short at a word you don’t recognize? The stronger your vocabulary, the slimmer your chances of slowing down to puzzle over the meaning of a word. ___40___Reading news articles from the economics section can help you learn new financial terms. And reading nonfiction health books can help you pick up medical vocabulary terms you might not see otherwise. And remember: Becoming a speed reader is like learning to salsa dance. Start slow, find your rhythm, and soon you’ll be breezing through pages like a literary Zorro! A. Expand your vocabulary. B. A larger vocabulary really counts. C. Try to put your inner voice on vacation. D. Reading outside your usual categories and topics helps. E. There are almost too many great books to read in a lifetime. F. Fast reading helps you complete your booklist more efficiently. G. Look for titles, subtitles, and any visual cue that offers a roadmap. 【答案】36. E 37. G 38. C 39. A 40. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一些如何快速阅读文章和书籍的方法。 【36题详解】 根据后文“And as someone with a massive to-be-read lineup, I sometimes wish I could flip the pages with a little more speed.(作为一个有大量待读书目的人，我有时希望我能更快地翻页。)”和前文“Thrillers and romance and mystery, oh my!(惊悚、浪漫和神秘，天哪！)”可知，此处是指有许多好书要读，所以选项E“人的一生要读的好书几乎太多了。”切合文意。故选E。 【37题详解】 根据前文“Before you kick off the speed-reading adventure, give the text a quick scan.(在你开始快速阅读之前，先快速浏览一下文章。)”和后文“By giving your brain a pre view of the topic, you reduce time spent processing surprise information.(通过给你的大脑一个主题的预览，你减少了处理意外信息的时间。)”可知，此处是指先大概了解一下文章的框架，所以选项G“寻找标题、副标题和任何能提供路线图的视觉线索。”切合文意。故选G。 【38题详解】 根据后文“Mentally voicing the words you read can be a major roadblock to speed. Instead of silently mouthing each word, train your brain to process chunks of words.(在脑海中读出你所读的单词可能是提高阅读速度的主要障碍。不要默念每个单词，训练你的大脑处理大块的单词。)”可知，此处是指在心里默读，所以选项C“试着让你内心的声音去度假。”切合文意。故选C。 【39题详解】 根据后文“Have you ever been deeply immersed in a story only to stop short at a word you don’t recognize? The stronger your vocabulary, the slimmer your chances of slowing down to puzzle over the meaning of a word.(你是否曾经深深沉浸在一个故事中，却突然停在一个你不认识的单词上？你的词汇量越大，你就越不可能放慢速度去理解一个单词的意思。)”可知，此处是指要扩大自己的词汇量，所以选项A“扩大词汇量。”切合文意。故选A。 【40题详解】 根据后文“Reading news articles from the economics section can help you learn new financial terms. And reading nonfiction health books can help you pick up medical vocabulary terms you might not see otherwise.(阅读经济版的新闻文章可以帮助你学习新的金融术语。阅读非小说类的健康书籍可以帮助你学习你在其他情况下可能看不到的医学词汇。)”可知，此处是指通过阅读多种主题的文章来扩大词汇量，所以选项D“在你通常的分类和主题之外阅读会有所帮助。”切合文意。故选D。 第Ⅱ卷 注意：将答案写在答题纸上，写在本试卷上无效。 第三部分 语言运用(共三节，满分50分) 第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。 My Dad became the only parent after my mother’s death.

They won’t forget that Olivia was the fourth-grade president last year and they’ll like the fact that she has experience, “his friend added. Ahmad nodded, grinning. “I know, but I think I can bring some fresh ideas. Do you know Olivia’s plans for the campaign?” Olivia, meanwhile, sat at her kitchen table with her twin sister. They were eating cupcakes while discussing what to put on the signs they planned to make. At the center of the table were posterboard in bright colors, markers, pens, colored pencils, and crayons. “Where should we start?” asked her sister ,brushing the cream from her hands. “What do you want people to know about you?” Olivia raised her head and thought for a moment. “I want them to know I’m a hard worker,“ she said, eyes bright and alert. “I have experience as class president. I also have a lot of ideas of making this a great school year.” “Experience is truly important,” commented her sister. “Dad once told me he would vote for someone who had proven to be the kind of leader he was looking for in his company.” An enormous grin spread across Olivia’s face. “What about Olivia for President-All Original, All Experience,” suggested her sister. “Oh, or Olivia for President, Opportunity for All?“ “I like both of those, ”exclaimed Olivia.“ The first one reminds the voters of my experience. The second one lets them know I will listen to their ideas and work for and with them. ”Her words fell as she took out a fat red marker and began the first poster. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右; 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1:Two weeks later on the election, Ms. Pond announced, “Now, we have two candidates with same votes.” _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2:Ahmad went to the front of the room to begin his speech after Olivia. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Two weeks later on the election, Ms. Pond announced, “Now, we have two candidates with same votes.”Now that the two candidates are tied on the ballot, let’s have a further campaign. Olivia went on stage first to give a speech, but surprisingly he was in a wheelchair. “Because of my injury, I have decided to withdraw from the campaign,” he said. “Why is this happening?” Ms. Pond asked. The classmate who pushed the wheelchair beside him said, “He is trying to save a classmate, so he can’t walk because of his foot injury. He needs to rest for a period of time to recover.” All the people present applauded for the former helpful fourth-grade president, including Ahmed. Ahmad went to the front of the room to begin his speech after Olivia.“Olivia is a great class president ,” Ahmed said tearfully. “His behavior deeply touched our hearts. Each of us should learn from his noble spirit of sacrificing oneself to save others.” I want to learn from the best. I suggest that Olivia stay on as fifth-grade president when she gets well again. I’d be happy to be his assistant, if he doesn’t mind. It was a thunderous ovation, and both men deserved it.
