The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same tome. In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (发起）the "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book " project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong. In Chicago, the mayor(市长）appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book, One Chicago" program. As a result, reading clubs and neighbourhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character. The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致）can be achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point ,putting all their energy And passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself. Ultinatel was Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word. 41. What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy? A. To invite authors to guide readers. B. To encourage people to read and share. C. To involve people in community service. D. To promote the friendship between cities. 42. Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project? A. They had little interest in reading. B. They were too busy to read a book. C. They came from many different backgrounds D. They lacked support from the local government 43. According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out? A. In large communities with little sense of unity B. In large cities where libraries are far from home C. In medium-sized cities with a diverse population D. In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached 44. The underlined words “shared a word” in Paragraph 5 probably mean A. exchanged ideas with each other B. discussed the meaning of a word C. gamed life experience D. used the same language 45. According to Nacy, the degree of students of the project is judged by A. the careful selection of a proper book B. the growing popularity of the writers C. the number of people who benefit from reading. D. the number of books that each person reads. 【答案】41. B 42. C 43. D 44. A 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了美国一些城市实施的“同读一本书”活动，这项活动旨在鼓励人们互相分享阅读的想法，并享受阅读的过程。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的“as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools.”（同时促进阅读作为一种经验，在家庭和学校分享）可知，南希发起这个项目的目的是鼓励人们阅读和分享。故选B项。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The only problem arose in New York ,where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population.”（唯一的问题出现在纽约，当地的读者无法选择一本书来代表庞大而多样化的人口）可知，为什么纽约人很难实施这个项目是因为他们来自不同的背景。故选C项。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致）can be achieved .”（这可能表明，这个想法在中型城市或大城镇效果最好，在那里可以实现更大的团结感）可知，根据文章，该项目在在能很快达成协议的大城镇答案更容易实施。故选D项。 【44题详解】 词义猜测题。根据上文“Ultinatel was Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process”阅读不仅要互相分享阅读的想法，还要享受分享阅读的过程。由otherwise可以看出shared a word是指前者，互相分享阅读的想法。故选A项。 【45题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Ultinatel was Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.”（南希最后指出，衡量成功程度的标准不是有多少人读了一本书，而是有多少人在这个过程中变得富有，或者喜欢与他们不会与之交谈的人交谈。）可知，南希表示，该项目的学生程度是根据从阅读中受益的人数来判断的。故选C项。 C Whether in the home or the workplace social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo. While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools. For example, these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user. The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn’t just deliver general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos. Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces. Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market. The company’s “Oshbot” robot is built to assist customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product’s location in the store. It can also speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for. The more interaction the robot has with humans, the more it learns. But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not intended to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees. “We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us, but with us,” said Breazeal. 46. How are social robots different from household robots? A. They can control their emotions. B. They are more like humans. C. They do the normal housework. D. They respond to users more slowly. 47. What can a Jibo robot do according to Paragraph 3? A. Communicate with you and perform operations. B. Answer your questions and make requests. C. Take your family pictures and deliver milk. D. Obey your orders and remind you to take pills. 48. What can Oshbot work as? A. A language teacher. B. A tour guide. C. A shop assistant. D. A private nurse. 49. We can learn from the last paragraph that social robots will _______. A. train employees B. be our workmates C. improve technologies D. take the place of workers 50. What does the passage mainly present? A. A new design idea of household robots. B. Marketing strategies for social robots. C. Information on household robots. D. An introduction to social robots. 【答案】46 B 47. D 48. C 49. B 50. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了社会机器人的功能与作用。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools.(虽然现在的家用机器人会做日常家务，但社交机器人将更像伴侣，而不仅仅是工具)”可知，社会机器人更像人或不是纯粹的工具。故选B。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据根据第三段中“You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn’t just deliver general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.(你可以和机器人交谈，问它问题，并要求它执行不同的任务。机器人不只是给出问题的一般答案；它根据对家庭中每个人的了解做出反应。它可以做一些事情，比如提醒家庭中年长的成员吃药或拍摄家庭照片)”可知，Jibo机器人能服从命令，提醒服药。故选D。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The company’s “Oshbot” robot is built to assist customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product’s location in the store.(该公司的“Oshbot”机器人是为了在商店里帮助顾客而设计的，它可以帮助顾客找到商品，并引导他们找到商品在商店里的位置)”可知，Oshbot可以做店员。故选C。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not intended to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees.(但与其他社交机器人一样，Oshbot机器人的目的不是取代工人，而是与其他员工一起工作)”可推知，社会机器人可以和我们一起做事情。故选B。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Whether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.(未来几年，无论是在家里还是在工作场所，社交机器人都将变得更加普遍。机器人公司Jibo的首席科学家辛西娅·布雷西亚说，社交机器人将以一种更人性化的方式将科技带入日常世界)”结合文章主要介绍了社会机器人的功能与作用。可知，文章主要介绍了社会机器人的功能与作用。故选D。 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题 第一节. 阅读表达（共5小题, 每小题2分,满分10分） 阅读下面短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题. Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart(购物手推车). They will, in a lifetime, push the chrome-plate contraptions many miles. But few will know—or even think to ask—who it was that invented them. Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging(吃力地携带) groceries around in baskets they had to carry. One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business. On June 4, 1937, Goldman’s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldn’t wait to see them using his invention. But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try. After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren’t using his carts. “Don’t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?” one shopper replied. But Goldman wasn’t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony(假冒的) customers. As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come—those who came bought more. With larger, easier-to-handle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before. Today’s shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman’s original model. Perhaps that’s one reason Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937—before the coming of the shopping cart. 51. The underlined words “chrome-plate contraptions” in Paragraph 1 refer to ______. (No more than 3 words) __________________ 52. What was the purpose of Goldman’s invention? (No more than 10 words) __________________ 53. Why was Goldman disappointed at first? (No more than 10 words) __________________ 54. Why did Goldman hire people to push carts around his market?(No more than 10 words) __________________ 55. What do you think of Goldman? Please give your reasons. (No more than 20 words) __________________ 【答案】51. Shopping carts. 52. It was to make shopping easier and attract more business. 53. Because few customers used his carts. 54. Because he wanted to promote his shopping carts. 55. He was a smart businessman. He invented the shopping cart and made it accepted by customers. Or: He was smart but he shouldn’t have used tricks to attract customers. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了与美国人生活息息相关的购物手推车的发明。Sylvan N. Goldman在1937年发明了购物手推车。作为生意人的Sylvan N. Goldman认为购物手推车让顾客更容易购物，并有助于吸引更多的生意。经过推广和改进，购物车购物方式已经深入到人们的生活中。 【51题详解】 考查词义猜测。分析可知，“the”表示特指，第二次提及，因此结合语境可知，划线“the chrome-plate contraptions”应是指前文“a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart(在购物车后面的他或她生活的一部分)”中的“a shopping cart(购物手推车)”，与划线短语在名词复数上保持一致，应是复数形式。故答案为：Shopping carts. 【52题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第三段内容“One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.(有一天，Goldman突然有了把篮子装在轮子上的想法。带轮子的购物篮会让他的顾客更容易购物，并有助于吸引更多的生意。)”可知，他的想法是给购物篮装上轮子，这样做的目的是让顾客更容易购物，并有助于吸引更多的生意。故答案为：It was to make shopping easier and attract more business. 【53题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第五段内容“Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try.(大多数购物者都花了很长时间看这些手推车，但几乎没有人愿意试一试。)”可知，大部分人只是长时间看了手推车，并没有人尝试使用，这应是他起初感到失望的原因。故答案为：Because few customers used his carts. 【54题详解】 考查推理判断。根据文章第七段内容“He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony customers.(他知道，只要他能说服人们试一试，他的手推车就会大获成功。为此，Goldman雇佣了一群人在他的市场上推着手推车，假装他们在购物!看到这一点，真正的客户逐渐开始模仿假冒客户。)”可知，他想要人们尝试使用手推车购物，于是他雇佣人推着手推车假装在购物，这样，真正的顾客就开始效仿使用手推车购物了。由此可推知，他雇佣人是因为要推广购物手推车的使用，以鼓励人们尝试使用。故答案为：Because he wanted to promote his shopping carts. 【55题详解】 考查推理判断。根据文章第二段末尾内容“Every day he would see shoppers lugging groceries around in baskets they had to carry.(每天，他都会看到购物者用篮子拖着食品杂货四处走动。）以及第三段内容 One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.(有一天，Goldman突然有了把篮子装在轮子上的想法。带轮子的购物篮会让他的顾客更容易购物，并有助于吸引更多的生意。)”可知，Goldman通过观察顾客购物的行为想到有轮子的购物篮可以方便购物，而且可以吸引更多的生意，说明他是一个聪明的生意人，且文章第七段提及“To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony customers.(为此，Goldman雇佣了一群人在他的市场上推着手推车，假装他们在购物!看到这一点，真正的客户逐渐开始模仿假冒客户。)”他通过“推广宣传”购物车使得真正的顾客开始使用并接受购物车购物的方式。同样可以说明他是一个聪明的生意人。故答案为：He was a smart businessman. He invented the shopping cart and made it accepted by customers. 71. 第二节: 书面表达（满分 25 分） 56. 假设你是晨光中学学生李津。你的英国朋友 Chris热爱学习汉语，上周他在邮件中向你询问“活雷锋”这一表达是什么意思。请根据以下提示回复邮件： (1)解释“活雷锋”的意思； (2)举一个身边“活雷锋”的例子； (3)鼓励他继续学习汉语。 参考词汇：活雷锋 a living Lei Feng 注意： (1)词数不少于100； (2)可适当加入细节，使内容充实、行文连贯； (3)开头已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Chris, Happy to hear from you. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sincerely yours; Li Jin 【答案】Dear Chris, Happy to hear from you.

B An idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and beyond. The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same tome. In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (发起）the "If All of Seattle Read the Same Book " project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong. In Chicago, the mayor(市长）appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book, One Chicago" program. As a result, reading clubs and neighbourhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character. The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致）can be achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point ,putting all their energy And passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself. Ultinatel was Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word. 41. What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy? A. To invite authors to guide readers. B. To encourage people to read and share. C. To involve people in community service. D. To promote the friendship between cities. 42. Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project? A. They had little interest in reading. B. They were too busy to read a book. C. They came from many different backgrounds D. They lacked support from the local government 43. According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out? A. In large communities with little sense of unity B. In large cities where libraries are far from home C. In medium-sized cities with a diverse population D. In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached 44. The underlined words “shared a word” in Paragraph 5 probably mean A. exchanged ideas with each other B. discussed the meaning of a word C. gamed life experience D. used the same language 45. According to Nacy, the degree of students of the project is judged by A. the careful selection of a proper book B. the growing popularity of the writers C. the number of people who benefit from reading. D. the number of books that each person reads. C Whether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo. While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools. For example, these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user. The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn’t just deliver general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos. Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.

They will, in a lifetime, push the chrome-plate contraptions many miles. But few will know—or even think to ask—who it was that invented them. Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging(吃力地携带) groceries around in baskets they had to carry. One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business. On June 4, 1937, Goldman’s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldn’t wait to see them using his invention. But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try. After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren’t using his carts. “Don’t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?” one shopper replied. But Goldman wasn’t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony(假冒的) customers. As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come—those who came bought more. With larger, easier-to-handle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before. Today’s shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman’s original model. Perhaps that’s one reason Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937—before the coming of the shopping cart. 51.
