Vida Woodhull Stabler is the director of the Omaha culture center at Omaha Nation Public Schools in Macy, Nebraska. She has been working for years to pass on the cultural knowledge of tribal (部落的) elders for future generations. But she faces a predicament: Only about a dozen Omaha tribe members speak the language fluently today.
For Kyleigh Merrick, 15, learning the Omaha language as a teen today is important but also a challenge. She goes to language class every day, but outside of class, there are few opportunities to speak it. Her great-grandmother uses it at home, but among her peers, only a handful will sometimes greet each other in the Omaha language. At school, only a few students are taking Omaha language classes and seem deeply interested in tribal language and culture.
Another big force that has worked against passing the native tribal language on over generations is boarding schools . The local government began sending native students to boarding schools from the 1800s to the 1960s. Students there were not allowed to express tribal culture and were taught only English.
“Our language does not have access to the same types of materials that Spanish and German do ― you can walk into any library and find Spanish books to read,” Stabler said. “Our community has had to develop tangible (有形的) materials on our own. The first challenge is ensuring people want to learn. The second is making sure they have materials to learn from.”
At Omaha Nation Public Schools, Stabler put tribal culture into students’ everyday school experiences, like hanging up a calendar with months in English and Omaha. In biology class, for instance, kids might make traditional tribal foods.
For Stabler, the work of making sure tribal culture lives on into the next generations never stops. “If students are rooted to our land ― they’ll be rooted as human beings,” Stabler said.
4. What does the underlined part “a predicament” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. A golden chance. B. A tough decision.
C. A difficult situation. D. A different direction.
5. What do we know about Kyleigh Merrick?
A. She knows many Omaha speakers.
B. She is able to speak some tribal language.
C. She seldom takes language classes.
D. She thinks learning the Omaha language is easy for her.
6. What do Stabler’s words in Paragraph 4 suggest?
A. Few students have an interest in learning the Omaha language.
B. Spanish and German books should be banned from libraries.
C. More reading materials in the Omaha language should be provided.
D. The local government forces students to speak only English in school.
7. What efforts does Stabler make to keep the Omaha language alive?
A. Setting up tribal libraries. B. Introducing tribal culture to school.
C. Persuading students to learn the Omaha language. D. Encouraging tribal elders to teach the Omaha language.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文,讲述Vida Woodhull Stabler在传播部落文化遇到的阻力及应对方法。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第一段划线词所在句子“But she faces a predicament: Only about a dozen Omaha tribe members speak the language fluently today.”(但她面临着一个困境:如今只有大约12名奥马哈部落成员能流利地说这种语言。)可知,会说这种部落语言的人很少,这对于Stabler来说,是一个比较困难的处境。故选C项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“She goes to language class every day, but outside of class, there are few opportunities to speak it. ”(15岁的Kyleigh Merrick每天都上奥马哈语课,但是很少有机会使用。)奥马哈语是部落语言的一种,因此可以推断Kyleigh Merrick会讲部落语言。故选B项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段Stabler所说的话“Our language does not have access to the same types of materials that Spanish and German do ― you can walk into any library and find Spanish books to read,”(我们的语言无法获得与西班牙语和德语相同类型的材料——你可以走进任何图书馆,找到西班牙语书籍阅读,)“Our community has had to develop tangible (有形的) materials on our own. The first challenge is ensuring people want to learn. The second is making sure they have materials to learn from.”(我们的团体必须自己开发有形材料。第一个挑战是确保人们愿意学习。第二是确保他们有可以学习的材料。)可知,可用于学习部落语言的文字书籍很少,传播部落语言面临的挑战之一就是保证有可读的书籍。因此Stabler所说的话暗示了需要准备学习部落语言的书籍。故选C项。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“At Omaha Nation Public Schools, Stabler put tribal culture into students’ everyday school experiences, like hanging up a calendar with months in English and Omaha. In biology class, for instance, kids might make traditional tribal foods.”(在奥马哈国家公立学校,Stabler将部落文化融入到学生的日常学校体验中,比如用英语和奥马哈语挂上带有月份的日历。例如,在生物课上,孩子们可能会做传统的部落食物。)可知,Stabler将传统奥马哈文化引入到学校生活和教学中。故选B项。
【点睛】
When we were very small, we realized that having friends was important. Some of us even had imaginary(想象中的) friends. The need for friends continued as we grew into our teens. Friends played a big part in forming our personalities(性格). As adults, it is still important for us to have friends.
True friends are people who like us though we made mistakes and who listen to us and tell us the truth. Friends support our decisions and tell us when we’re foolish. They laugh with us and share our sadness. They are our partners and share interests with us. They stimulate us when we are feeling upset. They are people we aren’t afraid of telling our secret wishes to or what is really on our minds.
Friends are our supporters. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and warm. Friends offer acceptance and emotional(情感的) support. At times, they also help with our everyday lives, cooking a meal, doing chores, or giving us a lift when we need one. Friends also are there to offer advice, an ear to listen, or a shoulder to cry on.
Friends also help us reduce stress(压力). Not only do they listen to us when we feel stressed, but they also discuss what is stressing us. Sharing interests and doing activities with friends help us forget about problems at work or at home. For a short time, we can lose ourselves in a pleasant activity and perhaps laugh and breathe more easily.
8. What is the best title for the passage?
A. How to Reduce Stress B. How to Make New Friends
C. The Importance of Friends D. The Qualities of Good Friends
9. The underlined word “stimulate” in Paragraph 2 probably means________.
A. educate B. encourage
C. surprise D. dislike
10. We can learn from the third paragraph that friends always________.
A. laugh at us when we’re foolish B. tell us other people’s secrets
C share our sadness and interests D. support us when we need help
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。作者介绍了朋友在人们生活中的作用,启示我们应该珍惜友谊。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段第一句“True friends are people who like us though we made mistakes and who listen to us and tell us the truth.(真正的朋友是那些即使我们犯了错误也会喜欢我们的人,他们会倾听我们,告诉我们真相)”,第三段第一句“Friends are our supporters.(朋友们是我们的支持者)”以及第四段第一句“Friends also help us reduce stress. (朋友们也帮助我们减压)”可知,作者对朋友可以给人们的诸多帮助,所以本文主要介绍了朋友对人们来说是非常重要的。所以C项“The Importance of Friend(朋友的重要性)”符合题意。故选C。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据所猜词的后半句“when we are feeling down(当我们情绪低落时)”可知,在我们情绪低落的时候作为朋友应该是鼓励我们。由此推知,所猜词的意思为“鼓励”。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段第一句“Friends are our supporters. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and warm. Friends offer acceptance and emotional support. (朋友们是我们的支持者。当你可以依靠朋友时,你会感到安全和温暖。朋友提供接受和情感支持。)”可知,当我们需要帮助时,朋友会支持我们。故选D。
At any given moment, about seven microliters of tears are present in each of our eyes-about a tenth of a drop of water. Tears are more than salty water—they deliver oxygen and nutrients to our eyes, remove waste and serve as the first line of defense against disease.
Research has shown that markers of many of the most common diseases like cancer are found in tears. Work is already under way to confirm the use of such markers for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease. Recently, a technology named TearExo has been developed for breast cancer screening using patients' tears. That could greatly reduce the costs of testing.
Actually, the potential merits of tears as indicators of health go beyond occasional testing. One promising tear-based technology is a smart contact lens that continuously monitors a patient's biomarkers, significantly improving disease prevention and early detection. Recently, a smart contact lens has been successfully developed for continuous glucose monitoring and treatment of diabetic retinopathy. Such a product probably won't be ready for commercial use for several years. However, about 45 million people in the US already wear contact lenses to correct their vision, so switching to a smart version will be simple for them.
Interestingly, NASA ever suggested using tear markers to monitor astronauts' health in space. This allowed us to better understand the effects on human health of long-term exposure to space environmental factors like weightlessness. Tear markers from experienced astronauts and new astronauts without space exposure could be used to establish a health database, which might be one of the first stepping stones toward making living in space a reality.
Tears can provide an inexpensive, rapid and easy-to-use alternative to monitor health. Given the advantage in tear technology to monitor health, and to be used even by the healthy, such technology will almost certainly lead to the more effective prevention of diseases—rather than having to deal with the difficulties of treating them.
11. How does the author show the use of tears in testing?
A. By listing data. B. By using remarks.
C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons.
12. What does the underlined word "merits" in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Limitations. B. Amounts. C. Expenses. D. Advantages.
13. What can we know about the tear-based contact lens?
A. It can hardly correct our vision. B. It helps to detect diseases continuously.
C. It has been used commercially. D. It can successfully cure eye illnesses.
14. What does the author think of tear technology?
A. It serves as a basis for space exposure. B. It can free astronauts of weightlessness.
C. It monitors health effectively but slowly. D. It has a bright future in the medical field.
【答案】11. C 12. D 13. B 14. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了眼泪在疾病检测和预防方面的作用。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Research has shown that markers of many of the most common diseases like cancer are found in tears. Work is already under way to confirm the use of such markers for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease. Recently, a technology named TearExo has been developed for breast cancer screening using patients' tears. That could greatly reduce the costs of testing.(研究表明,许多最常见的疾病,如癌症的标志都可以在眼泪中找到。 研究人员已经开始证实使用这些标记来诊断阿尔茨海默病。最近,一项名为TearExo的技术已经被开发出来,用于使用患者的眼泪进行乳腺癌筛查。这将大大降低测试成本)”可推知,作者举例说明眼泪在测试中的作用。故选C。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“of tears as indicators of health go beyond occasional testing”以及“One promising tear-based technology is a smart contact lens that continuously monitors a patient's biomarkers, significantly improving disease prevention and early detection. (一种很有前途的基于眼泪的技术是一种智能隐形眼镜,它可以持续监测患者的生物标志物,显著改善疾病预防和早期检测)”可知,眼泪作为健康指标的潜在优势不仅仅是偶尔的检查。划线词的意思是“优势”。A. Limitations.限制;B. Amounts.数量;C. Expenses.费用;D. Advantages.优势。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“One promising tear-based technology is a smart contact lens that continuously monitors a patient's biomarkers, significantly improving disease prevention and early detection. Recently, a smart contact lens has been successfully developed for continuous glucose monitoring and treatment of diabetic retinopathy. (一种很有前途的基于眼泪的技术是一种智能隐形眼镜,它可以持续监测患者的生物标志物,显著改善疾病预防和早期检测。最近,一种智能隐形眼镜已成功开发用于糖尿病视网膜病变的连续血糖监测和治疗)”可知,这种智能隐形眼镜有助于持续发现疾病。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Given the advantage in tear technology to monitor health, and to be used even by the healthy, such technology will almost certainly lead to the more effective prevention of diseases—rather than having to deal with the difficulties of treating them.(考虑到眼泪技术在监测健康方面的优势,甚至被健康人使用,这种技术几乎肯定会导致更有效的疾病预防,而不必处理治疗疾病的困难)”可推断,作者认为这种眼泪科技在医疗领域的未来是光明的。故选D。

【答案】Dear Jack,
Hearing our school is scheduled to buy some new books, I feel the urge to voice my opinion about what kind of books appeal to students most.
First come popular science books. Such books tend to touch on science or scientific application s in a plain language, which can arouse students’ enthusiasm for science and thus help boost our career development in the future. Besides, we’d appreciate it if you could include some classics in your list. Classics, examples of great writing and wisdom, are so well written that they still have a place in literature and deserve reading.
I'd be grateful if you could consider my appeal.
Yours

六、书面表达
46. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给的段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I eventually managed to persuade my parents to buy me a new football shirt for school matches. I was so excited. So I decided to wear it today for the first time during a match. As soon as we had been playing for ten minutes, a shirt sleeve was torn (撕破) when I made a quick turn.
I couldn’t tell my parents that my new football shirt was ruined. I needed a tailor. As I walked home, I suddenly came across a shop sign: “All kinds of repairs!”
I went inside directly. I looked around the shop and I saw broken toys.
“I guess this is the wrong place. What I really need is a tailor,” I said, putting my fingers through the tear in the shirt.
“This tear needs repairing,” I said.
“Don’t worry. This is just the right place, son. Since I opened this shop, I have repaired many things, but never a football shirt,” a man with white hair said.
“Is this the first time you’re going to repair a football shirt? I hope you aren’t going to make it worse. It’s new.”
“It’s OK. I’ve been waiting a long time to repair a football shirt.”
Then the man took the shirt from me, pulling it out of my hand.
“Are you a striker?” he asked.
Before I could reply, “Yes, how did you know?” he said, “We may see you play for a professional team one day.”
“Impossible! My dad doesn’t see football as a profession. He thinks I should be an engineer or a doctor.”
“Not at all... People who choose a career they really desire become successful and happy.”
“Yes, you’re right! I know what I want to be! I’m not shy when I play football. I want to play just like Ridvan does! Even my father likes him!”
The man was repairing the tear with thread.
“Great! The tear hardly shows now.”
He smiled at me. I noticed a photo on the wall. It was a photo of a football team. I couldn’t make out which team it was from where I was sitting.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
I asked him if he liked football.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
He patted me on the back and asked, “Do you understand now?”
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I asked him if he liked football. He nodded his head with enthusiasm. I asked him why he didn’t become a football player then. But he didn’t say anything else. He put my repaired shirt in a bag and said, “Follow your dreams.” Just then he reached under the table and pressed a button. The commentator’s voice was familiar. He used to be popular in the old days. He was commentating on a match from years ago. “Orhan, Orhan, Orhan!” The fans shouted with great enthusiasm.
He patted me on the back and asked, “Do you understand now?” I left the shop. I felt a soft wind on my face. What should I make of that? Who was that man? Could he really be Orhan, the ex-footballer? My father has black and white films of those old football matches. He watches them often to cheer himself up. You can often hear the name “Orhan” mentioned in those films. If I told my father all about this he would probably just say, “You must have dreamed it son.”
【解析】

Vida Woodhull Stabler is the director of the Omaha culture center at Omaha Nation Public Schools in Macy, Nebraska. She has been working for years to pass on the cultural knowledge of tribal (部落的) elders for future generations. But she faces a predicament: Only about a dozen Omaha tribe members speak the language fluently today.
For Kyleigh Merrick 15, learning the Omaha language as a teen today is important but also a challenge. She goes to language class every day, but outside of class, there are few opportunities to speak it. Her great-grandmother uses it at home, but among her peers, only a handful will sometimes greet each other in the Omaha language. At school, only a few students are taking Omaha language classes and seem deeply interested in tribal language and culture.
Another big force that has worked against passing the native tribal language on over generations is boarding schools . The local government began sending native students to boarding schools from the 1800s to the 1960s. Students there were not allowed to express tribal culture and were taught only English.
“Our language does not have access to the same types of materials that Spanish and German do ― you can walk into any library and find Spanish books to read,” Stabler said. “Our community has had to develop tangible (有形的) materials on our own. The first challenge is ensuring people want to learn. The second is making sure they have materials to learn from.”
At Omaha Nation Public Schools, Stabler put tribal culture into students’ everyday school experiences, like hanging up a calendar with months in English and Omaha. In biology class, for instance, kids might make traditional tribal foods.
For Stabler, the work of making sure tribal culture lives on into the next generations never stops. “If students are rooted to our land ― they’ll be rooted as human beings,” Stabler said.
4. What does the underlined part “a predicament” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. A golden chance. B. A tough decision.
C. A difficult situation. D. A different direction.
5. What do we know about Kyleigh Merrick?
A. She knows many Omaha speakers.
B. She is able to speak some tribal language.
C. She seldom takes language classes.
D. She thinks learning the Omaha language is easy for her.
6. What do Stabler’s words in Paragraph 4 suggest?
A. Few students have an interest in learning the Omaha language.
B. Spanish and German books should be banned from libraries.
C. More reading materials in the Omaha language should be provided.
D. The local government forces students to speak only English in school.
7. What efforts does Stabler make to keep the Omaha language alive?
A. Setting up tribal libraries. B. Introducing tribal culture to school.
C. Persuading students to learn the Omaha language. D. Encouraging tribal elders to teach the Omaha language.
When we were very small, we realized that having friends was important. Some of us even had imaginary(想象中的) friends. The need for friends continued as we grew into our teens. Friends played a big part in forming our personalities(性格). As adults, it is still important for us to have friends.
True friends are people who like us though we made mistakes and who listen to us and tell us the truth. Friends support our decisions and tell us when we’re foolish. They laugh with us and share our sadness. They are our partners and share interests with us. They stimulate us when we are feeling upset. They are people we aren’t afraid of telling our secret wishes to or what is really on our minds.
Friends are our supporters. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and warm. Friends offer acceptance and emotional(情感的) support. At times, they also help with our everyday lives, cooking a meal, doing chores, or giving us a lift when we need one. Friends also are there to offer advice, an ear to listen, or a shoulder to cry on.
Friends also help us reduce stress(压力). Not only do they listen to us when we feel stressed, but they also discuss what is stressing us. Sharing interests and doing activities with friends help us forget about problems at work or at home. For a short time, we can lose ourselves in a pleasant activity and perhaps laugh and breathe more easily.
8. What is the best title for the passage?
A. How to Reduce Stress B. How to Make New Friends
C. The Importance of Friends D. The Qualities of Good Friends
9. The underlined word “stimulate” in Paragraph 2 probably means________.
A. educate B. encourage
C. surprise D. dislike
10. We can learn from the third paragraph that friends always________.
A. laugh at us when we’re foolish B. tell us other people’s secrets
C. share our sadness and interests D. support us when we need help
At any given moment, about seven microliters of tears are present in each of our eyes-about a tenth of a drop of water. Tears are more than salty water—they deliver oxygen and nutrients to our eyes, remove waste and serve as the first line of defense against disease.
Research has shown that markers of many of the most common diseases like cancer are found in tears. Work is already under way to confirm the use of such markers for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease. Recently, a technology named TearExo has been developed for breast cancer screening using patients' tears. That could greatly reduce the costs of testing.
Actually, the potential merits of tears as indicators of health go beyond occasional testing. One promising tear-based technology is a smart contact lens that continuously monitors a patient's biomarkers, significantly improving disease prevention and early detection. Recently, a smart contact lens has been successfully developed for continuous glucose monitoring and treatment of diabetic retinopathy. Such a product probably won't be ready for commercial use for several years. However, about 45 million people in the US already wear contact lenses to correct their vision, so switching to a smart version will be simple for them.
Interestingly, NASA ever suggested using tear markers to monitor astronauts' health in space. This allowed us to better understand the effects on human health of long-term exposure to space environmental factors like weightlessness. Tear markers from experienced astronauts and new astronauts without space exposure could be used to establish a health database, which might be one of the first stepping stones toward making living in space a reality.
Tears can provide an inexpensive, rapid and easy-to-use alternative to monitor health. Given the advantage in tear technology to monitor health, and to be used even by the healthy, such technology will almost certainly lead to the more effective prevention of diseases—rather than having to deal with the difficulties of treating them.
11. How does the author show the use of tears in testing?
A. By listing data. B. By using remarks.
C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons.
12. What does the underlined word "merits" in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Limitations. B. Amounts. C. Expenses. D. Advantages.
13. What can we know about the tear-based contact lens?
A. It can hardly correct our vision. B. It helps to detect diseases continuously.
C. It has been used commercially. D. It can successfully cure eye illnesses.
14. What does the author think of tear technology?
A. It serves as a basis for space exposure. B. It can free astronauts of weightlessness.
C. It monitors health effectively but slowly. D. It has a bright future in the medical field.

I couldn’t tell my parents that my new football shirt was ruined. I needed a tailor. As I walked home, I suddenly came across a shop sign: “All kinds of repairs!”
I went inside directly. I looked around the shop and I saw broken toys.
“I guess this is the wrong place. What I really need is a tailor,” I said, putting my fingers through the tear in the shirt.
“This tear needs repairing,” I said.
“Don’t worry. This is just the right place, son. Since I opened this shop, I have repaired many things, but never a football shirt,” a man with white hair said.
“Is this the first time you’re going to repair a football shirt? I hope you aren’t going to make it worse It’s new.”
“It’s OK. I’ve been waiting a long time to repair a football shirt.”
Then the man took the shirt from me, pulling it out of my hand.
“Are you a striker?” he asked.
Before I could reply, “Yes, how did you know?” he said, “We may see you play for a professional team one day.”
“Impossible! My dad doesn’t see football as a profession. He thinks I should be an engineer or a doctor.”
“Not at all... People who choose a career they really desire become successful and happy.”
“Yes, you’re right! I know what I want to be! I’m not shy when I play football. I want to play just like Ridvan does! Even my father likes him!”
The man was repairing the tear with thread.
“Great! The tear hardly shows now.”
He smiled at me. I noticed a photo on the wall. It was a photo of a football team. I couldn’t make out which team it was from where I was sitting.

I asked him if he liked football.
