He was often called the most brilliant theoretical physicist since Albert Einstein. But his amazing career actually started as a young man who struggled to get around to doing his homework at Oxford University where he studied physics. He then went on to Cambridge to research cosmology, the study of the origin of universe. When he was 21, Hawking's life hit a big hurdle. He was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease. The disease causes the brain to stop sending messages to a person's muscles. At the time, doctors said he would only live for around 2 years, but he proved them very, very wrong. And with the help of a special wheelchair and speech computer, Hawking spent much of his time researching the beginning of the universe and black holes. His most famous discovery was probably when he demonstrated that black holes emit some radiation, which has since become known as Hawking Radiation. He also spent a lot of time thinking about what existed before the big bang. Hawking wrote books that explained his big ideas in ways that could be understood by the average person. In 1988 he published A Brief History of Time. It became really popular and sold more than 10 million copies. However, he wasn't just known for his books. He also had a lot of fun becoming a regular on TV screens around the world. He even had a big Hollywood film made about his life. Throughout his life Stephen Hawking inspired people to look beyond our planet and expand our knowledge of the universe. His family says that he'll be greatly missed and the legacy of his amazing ideas will live on. 4. Why does the author mention Albert Einstein in Paragraph 1? A. To tell us Hawking was a great physicist. B. To compare the two famous people. C. To show he was Hawking's teacher. D. To identify a special period further. 5. How did Hawking prove the doctor's wrong? A. He did many experiments. B. He made some comparisons. C. He tried to send signals to his muscles. D. He lived for long like other common people. 6. What was Hawking famous for most? A. Big bang. B. Black holes. C. Radiation from the black holes. D. A big Hollywood film about the universe. 7. What does Hawking's family think of him? A. He'll be forgotten soon. B. His idea of the universe is valuable. C. He won't be understood completely. D. He won't be found by others any more. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇人物传记类阅读。文章作者介绍了伟大的物理学家霍金以及他的杰出成就。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。答案定位在第一段He was often called the most brilliant theoretical physicist since Albert Einstein.（他经常被称为自爱因斯坦以来最杰出的理论物理学家。）由此推断出作者在第一段中提到爱因斯坦是为了告诉我们霍金是一位伟大的物理学家，故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。答案定位在第二段At the time, doctors said he would only live for around 2 years, but he proved them very, very wrong.（当时，医生说他只能活2年左右，但他证明他们大错特错。）由此可知霍金像其他普通人一样长寿，证明医生是错的，故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。答案定位在第三段His most famous discovery was probably when he demonstrated that black holes emit some radiation, which has since become known as Hawking Radiation.（他最著名的发现可能是当他证明黑洞释放出某种辐射时，这种辐射后来被称为霍金辐射。）故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。答案定位在最后一段His family says that he'll be greatly missed and the legacy of his amazing ideas will live on.（他的家人说，他将被深深地怀念，他那些令人惊叹的想法将会流传下去。）由此可知，霍金的家人认为他的宇宙观很有价值，故选B。 C With humans encroaching(侵入) more and more on wildlife habitats, animals are finding that the best way to survive isn’t to pack up and move—it’s to adapt to the night life. A variety of previously daytime animals such as foxes, deer and boars have become active at night to avoid human activity out of fear. But this nighttime switch comes with its own risks. Researchers looked at how 62 species of animals on six continents changed their behavior in response to human activities such as hunting, farming, and development. The studies employed various technologies to follow the animals, from GPS trackers to motion-activated cameras. Once night falls, the animals surveyed became far more active than they were before humans arrived, hunting and looking for food in the dark. For example, animals that used to split their activity evenly between day and night typically increased their nighttime activity to 68%. The team also found the animals responded similarly to these human encroachments, regardless of whether human activity directly affected them. So, a deer might become more active at night simply because it sees humans hiking nearby, not because it’s being hunted. The researchers believe these nighttime behaviors not only allow humans and animals to coexist more peacefully, they may be able to give us hints as to how to plan conservation efforts accordingly, such as limiting human activity during times when a specific species is more active. But moving to the nightlife could also have downsides for these animals. A nighttime lifestyle can reduce an animal’s ability to hunt and find food successfully and can even affect its ability to find a mate. Switching to a nighttime lifestyle can affect natural patterns of life even if these animals are doing so to reduce their interaction with humans. So, just because animals are becoming more active at night doesn’t mean they’ve escaped the influence of humans. 8. Why are animals becoming more active at night? A. It is easier to find food at night. B. It is easier to escape being hunted. C. They have got used to nightlife. D. They can be less affected by human. 9. How did the researchers find the animals’ behavioral changes? A. They followed and watched the animals. B. They compared different animals. C. They used modern technologies. D. They found more animals at night. 10. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph? A. Deer can get used to nightlife easily. B. Animals can be affected only when being hunted. C. Any human encroachment can affect animals. D. Animals should stay away from humans. 11. What is the passage mainly about? A. Animals move to nightlife due to human encroachments. B. Animals have their own ways to get used to life changes. C. Animals should be well protected before it is too late. D. The benefits and risks of animals’ nightlife style. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了随着人类越来越多地侵入野生动物栖息地，动物们发现生存的最佳方式不是收拾行李搬家，而是要适应夜间生活。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段倒数第二句“A variety of previously daytime animals such as foxes, deer and boars have become active at night to avoid human activity out of fear.（狐狸、鹿、野猪等各种以往白天活动的动物，由于害怕人类活动而在夜间活动。）”可以，动物在夜间变得更加活跃，是因为此时它们受人类的影响较小。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段第二句“The studies employed various technologies to follow the animals, from GPS trackers to motion-activated cameras.(研究采用了各种技术来跟踪动物，从GPS跟踪器到运动激活相机。)”可知,研究人员使用现代技术发现这些动物的行为变化的。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段第一句“The team also found the animals responded similarly to these human encroachments, regardless of whether human activity directly affected them.（研究小组还发现，不管人类活动是否直接影响到它们，动物对这些人类侵犯的反应相似。）”可知，任何人类的侵犯都会影响动物。故选C项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段一、二句“With humans encroaching(侵入) more and more on wildlife habitats, animals are finding that the best way to survive isn’t to pack up and move—it’s to adapt to the night life. A variety of previously daytime animals such as foxes, deer and boars have become active at night to avoid human activity out of fear.（随着人类越来越多地侵占野生动物的栖息地，动物们发现，最好的生存方式不是收拾行李搬家，而是适应夜间生活。狐狸、鹿、野猪等各种以往白天活动的动物，由于害怕人类活动而在夜间活动。）”结合全文可知，本文主要讲述了由于人类的侵犯，动物转向夜间生活。故选A项。 D Camaraderie over Competence The importance of liking people is the subject of an article in the Harvard Business Review, which has carried out an experiment to find out who we’d rather work with. Hardly surprisingly, the people we want most as our workmates are both: brilliant at their jobs and delightful human beings. And the people we want least are both unpleasant and useless. More interestingly, the authors found that, given the choice between working with lovable fools and competent jerks (性情古怪的人), we irresistibly choose the former. Anyway, who likes those stupid men who annoy or hurt other people? We might insist that competence matters more, but our behavior shows we stay close to the people we like and sharing information with them. What companies should therefore do is get people to like each other more. The trick here is apparently to make sure staffs come across each other as often as possible during the day. They also should be sent on bonding courses and so on to encourage friendliness and break down displeasure. However, more outdoor-activity weekends and shared coffee machines inspire no confidence at all. The reality is that people either like each other or they don’t. You can’t force it. Possibly you can make offices friendlier by tolerating a lot of chat, but there is a productivity cost to that. In my experience, the question of lovable fool against competent jerk may not be the right one. The two are interrelated: we tend not to like our workmates when they are completely hopeless. I was once quite friendly with a woman whom I later worked with. I found her to be so outstandingly bad at her job that I lost respect for her and ended up not really liking her at all. Then is there anything that companies should be doing about it? By far the most effective strategy would be to hire people who are all pretty much the same, given that similarity is one of the main determinants of whether we like each other. I think this is a pretty good idea, but no one dares recommend this anymore without offending the diversity lobby group. There is only one acceptable view on this subject: teams of similar people are bad because they stop creativity. This may be true, though I have never seen any conclusive proof of it. Not only do we like similar people, we like people who like us. So if companies want to promote more liking, they should encourage a culture where we are all nice to each other. The trouble is that this needs to be done with some skill. 12. According to the research, which kind of colleagues would most people tend to choose? A Nice but unintelligent. B. Creative but unattractive. C. Competent but unfriendly. D. Humorous but unambitious. 13. The author talks about her experience to show that ______. A. people respect outstanding leaders B. people tend to like optimistic workmates C. a workmate’s working ability is important D. talkative workmates makes offices friendlier 14. Some people think that similar people working together may ______ A. offend each other B. create fewer new ideas C. talk more and work less D. be likely to stick together 15. To encourage workmates to like each other, companies could ______. A. set more coffee machines in the work place B. organize team-building activities outside the office C. encourage a diversity of opinions in workplace D. employ staff who have a lot in common 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。本文通过调查发现人们乐于与聪明乐观，工作能力强的人一起工作，因为同事的能力很重要，相似的人在一起工作会阻碍创新能力，并据此为企业提供了一些建议。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Hardly surprisingly, the people we want most as our workmates are both: brilliant at their jobs and delightful human beings.” 毫不奇怪，我们最希望成为同事的人既是工作出色的人，也是讨人喜欢的人。由此可知，人们乐于和聪明且乐观的人一起共事，故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“we tend not to like our workmates when they are completely hopeless.” 当我们的同事在工作上毫无希望时，我们往往不喜欢他们。由此判断出，作者通过讲述自己的经历来说明同事的工作能力是很重要的。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“teams of similar people are bad because they stop creativity.”可知，相似的人在一起工作会阻碍创新能力，故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Not only do we like similar people, we like people who like us. So if companies want to promote more liking, they should encourage a culture where we are all nice to each other.” 我们不仅喜欢相似的人，我们也喜欢喜欢我们的人。因此，如果公司想要促进更多的好感，他们应该鼓励一种我们都善待彼此的文化。因此判断出，公司应该雇佣有共同点的员工，故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Family conflict affects everyone. ____16____, you may want to mediate(调解) to make everyone's life easier.

He was exactly the kind of man her parents wanted her to marry, but she was unimpressed. Suddenly, a quarrel at the door caught her attention. “Please, I just want some fries!” an old woman in cheap clothing begged. Emily fixed her eyes on her bare feet and frowned. Being barefoot was unacceptable at any restaurant. The waiter was displeased and tried to drive her out, but something in Emily’s heart told her to stand up. “Wait a second,” she said to the waiter. “She’s with me.” The waiter’s eyes widened as Emily gestured for the woman to join her table. Nathaniel’s face turned red. “What are you doing, Emily?” he demanded, whispering although the old woman could hear him. “I’m inviting this woman to sit with us. Is that a problem?” she asked sweetly. The old woman introduced herself as Martha. “Yes, it is!” Nathaniel replied, throwing his cloth napkin on the table, standing up quickly and going out angrily. “Bye!” she waved at him as she sat down. Her voice termed sympathetic and kind as she looked at Martha. “Now, what’s going on? Can you tell me why you’re here? And why are you barefoot?” “Oh madam. You didn’t have to invite me to your table,” Martha shook her bead. “I just wanted some fries for my grandson. He’s just been so sick, and I can’t get him to eat anything. He told me he only wants some fries. So I sold my shoes to a man walking by and he gave me enough for some.” “May I ask, why not go to a fast food place?” Emily said gently. “Well, this place was closer. It’s too hot outside for me to walk much farther without shoes,” Martha answered. The woman continued telling her story. She and her grandson had been living on the streets for a few years since her daughter died, and they couldn’t afford rent because no one would hire her. 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。 Emily’s eyes watered as she took off her shoes. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The other guests put their shoes back on. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Emily’s eyes watered as she took off her shoes. “First of all, take my shoes. You can’t walk around barefoot,” Emily said, trying to hold herself together. “No, let me give her my shoes,” another customer at the restaurant told Emily, who had approached their table. Then, Emily noticed with wide eyes that everyone else had been looking at them and heard the entire conversation. All of them had their shoes in their hands. Finally, Martha put on Emily’s shoes — a simple pair of flats. The other guests put their shoes back on. They collected money and gave it to Martha. The waiter came with an order of fries packed in a box and a few other boxes with more food. He apologized to Martha. Emily decided to do more for them. She helped Martha get her grandson admitted into a hospital and ensured they would give him as many fries as he wanted during his stay. She later got Martha a job at one of the local supermarkets. The scene in the restaurant was the most moving display Emily had ever seen. At that moment, she felt hopeful for the world. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了艾米丽在餐馆和人约会时，看到一位老妇人光着脚来餐厅买薯条，但遭到服务员的拒绝，出于善意，艾米丽邀请她到自己的餐桌来，听她讲了自己的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“艾米丽脱下鞋子时眼睛湿润了。”可知，第一段可描写艾米丽被老妇人感动，想要帮助她，同时餐厅其他顾客也听到了老妇人的故事，都想要帮助她，老妇人选择了艾米丽的鞋。 ②由第二段首句内容“其他顾客都把鞋子穿上了。”可知，第二段可描写所有人给老妇人更多帮助，以及艾米丽的感悟。 2. 续写线索：艾米丽把鞋给老妇人——其他顾客也想把鞋给老妇人——老妇人选择艾米丽的鞋——其他顾客穿上鞋——所有人给予老妇人帮助——艾米丽的感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①注意到：notice/observe/perceive ②收集：collect/gather/assemble ③道歉：apologize/say sorry/make an apology ④确保：ensure/make sure/guarantee 情绪类 ①令人感动的：moving/touching/affecting ②充满希望的：hopeful/optimistic 【点睛】[高分句型1] “No, let me give her my shoes,” another customer at the restaurant told Emily, who had approached their table.

Family Brazilian families are often large. Nearly a third of the population is under eighteen! Children in France School The school day begins from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm, with a two-hour lunch break.

He was often called the most brilliant theoretical physicist since Albert Einstein. But his amazing career actually started as a young man who struggled to get around to doing his homework at Oxford University where he studied physics. He then went on to Cambridge to research cosmology, the study of the origin of universe. When he was 21, Hawking's life hit a big hurdle. He was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease. The disease causes the brain to stop sending messages to a person's muscles. At the time, doctors said he would only live for around 2 years, but he proved them very, very wrong. And with the help of a special wheelchair and speech computer, Hawking spent much of his time researching the beginning of the universe and black holes. His most famous discovery was probably when he demonstrated that black holes emit some radiation, which has since become known as Hawking Radiation. He also spent a lot of time thinking about what existed before the big bang. Hawking wrote books that explained his big ideas in ways that could be understood by the average person. In 1988 he published A Brief History of Time. It became really popular and sold more than 10 million copies. However, he wasn't just known for his books. He also had a lot of fun becoming a regular on TV screens around the world. He even had a big Hollywood film made about his life. Throughout his life Stephen Hawking inspired people to look beyond our planet and expand our knowledge of the universe. His family says that he'll be greatly missed and the legacy of his amazing ideas will live on. 4. Why does the author mention Albert Einstein in Paragraph 1? A. To tell us Hawking was a great physicist. B. To compare the two famous people. C. To show he was Hawking's teacher. D. To identify a special period further. 5. How did Hawking prove the doctor's wrong? A. He did many experiments. B. He made some comparisons. C. He tried to send signals to his muscles. D. He lived for long like other common people. 6. What was Hawking famous for most? A. Big bang. B. Black holes. C. Radiation from the black holes. D. A big Hollywood film about the universe. 7. What does Hawking's family think of him? A. He'll be forgotten soon. B. His idea of the universe is valuable. C. He won't be understood completely. D. He won't be found by others any more. C With humans encroaching(侵入) more and more on wildlife habitats, animals are finding that the best way to survive isn’t to pack up and move—it’s to adapt to the night life. A variety of previously daytime animals such as foxes, deer and boars have become active at night to avoid human activity out of fear. But this nighttime switch comes with its own risks. Researchers looked at how 62 species of animals on six continents changed their behavior in response to human activities such as hunting, farming, and development. The studies employed various technologies to follow the animals, from GPS trackers to motion-activated cameras. Once night falls, the animals surveyed became far more active than they were before humans arrived, hunting and looking for food in the dark. For example, animals that used to split their activity evenly between day and night typically increased their nighttime activity to 68%. The team also found the animals responded similarly to these human encroachments, regardless of whether human activity directly affected them. So, a deer might become more active at night simply because it sees humans hiking nearby, not because it’s being hunted. The researchers believe these nighttime behaviors not only allow humans and animals to coexist more peacefully, they may be able to give us hints as to how to plan conservation efforts accordingly, such as limiting human activity during times when a specific species is more active. But moving to the nightlife could also have downsides for these animals. A nighttime lifestyle can reduce an animal’s ability to hunt and find food successfully and can even affect its ability to find a mate. Switching to a nighttime lifestyle can affect natural patterns of life even if these animals are doing so to reduce their interaction with humans. So, just because animals are becoming more active at night doesn’t mean they’ve escaped the influence of humans. 8. Why are animals becoming more active at night? A. It is easier to find food at night. B. It is easier to escape being hunted. C. They have got used to nightlife. D. They can be less affected by human. 9. How did the researchers find the animals’ behavioral changes? A. They followed and watched the animals. B. They compared different animals. C. They used modern technologies. D. They found more animals at night. 10. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph? A. Deer can get used to nightlife easily. B. Animals can be affected only when being hunted. C. Any human encroachment can affect animals. D. Animals should stay away from humans. 11. What is the passage mainly about? A. Animals move to nightlife due to human encroachments. B. Animals have their own ways to get used to life changes. C. Animals should be well protected before it is too late. D. The benefits and risks of animals’ nightlife style. D Camaraderie over Competence The importance of liking people is the subject of an article in the Harvard Business Review, which has carried out an experiment to find out who we’d rather work with. Hardly surprisingly, the people we want most as our workmates are both: brilliant at their jobs and delightful human beings. And the people we want least are both unpleasant and useless. More interestingly, the authors found that, given the choice between working with lovable fools and competent jerks (性情古怪的人), we irresistibly choose the former. Anyway, who likes those stupid men who annoy or hurt other people? We might insist that competence matters more, but our behavior shows we stay close to the people we like and sharing information with them. What companies should therefore do is get people to like each other more. The trick here is apparently to make sure staffs come across each other as often as possible during the day. They also should be sent on bonding courses and so on to encourage friendliness and break down displeasure. However, more outdoor-activity weekends and shared coffee machines inspire no confidence at all. The reality is that people either like each other or they don’t. You can’t force it. Possibly you can make offices friendlier by tolerating a lot of chat, but there is a productivity cost to that. In my experience, the question of lovable fool against competent jerk may not be the right one. The two are interrelated: we tend not to like our workmates when they are completely hopeless. I was once quite friendly with a woman whom I later worked with. I found her to be so outstandingly bad at her job that I lost respect for her and ended up not really liking her at all. Then is there anything that companies should be doing about it? By far the most effective strategy would be to hire people who are all pretty much the same, given that similarity is one of the main determinants of whether we like each other. I think this is a pretty good idea, but no one dares recommend this anymore without offending the diversity lobby group. There is only one acceptable view on this subject: teams of similar people are bad because they stop creativity. This may be true, though I have never seen any conclusive proof of it. Not only do we like similar people, we like people who like us. So if companies want to promote more liking, they should encourage a culture where we are all nice to each other. The trouble is that this needs to be done with some skill. 12. According to the research, which kind of colleagues would most people tend to choose? A. Nice but unintelligent. B. Creative but unattractive. C. Competent but unfriendly. D. Humorous but unambitious. 13. The author talks about her experience to show that ______. A. people respect outstanding leaders B. people tend to like optimistic workmates C. a workmate’s working ability is important D. talkative workmates makes offices friendlier 14.

He was exactly the kind of man her parents wanted her to marry, but she was unimpressed. Suddenly, a quarrel at the door caught her attention. “Please, I just want some fries!” an old woman in cheap clothing begged. Emily fixed her eyes on her bare feet and frowned. Being barefoot was unacceptable at any restaurant. The waiter was displeased and tried to drive her out, but something in Emily’s heart told her to stand up. “Wait a second,” she said to the waiter. “She’s with me.” The waiter’s eyes widened as Emily gestured for the woman to join her table. Nathaniel’s face turned red. “What are you doing, Emily?” he demanded, whispering although the old woman could hear him. “I’m inviting this woman to sit with us. Is that a problem?” she asked sweetly. The old woman introduced herself as Martha. “Yes, it is!” Nathaniel replied, throwing his cloth napkin on the table, standing up quickly and going out angrily. “Bye!” she waved at him as she sat down. Her voice termed sympathetic and kind as she looked at Martha. “Now, what’s going on? Can you tell me why you’re here? And why are you barefoot?” “Oh, madam. You didn’t have to invite me to your table,” Martha shook her bead. “I just wanted some fries for my grandson. He’s just been so sick, and I can’t get him to eat anything. He told me he only wants some fries. So I sold my shoes to a man walking by and he gave me enough for some.” “May I ask, why not go to a fast food place?” Emily said gently. “Well, this place was closer. It’s too hot outside for me to walk much farther without shoes,” Martha answered. The woman continued telling her story. She and her grandson had been living on the streets for a few years since her daughter died, and they couldn’t afford rent because no one would hire her. 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。 Emily’s eyes watered as she took off her shoes. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The other guests put their shoes back on. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 ACABA 6-10CCABC 11-15ABCBC 16-20ACBBA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
