For younger family members, get-togethers can reinforce (加强) family traditions and can be learning experiences that help them to grow and mature. Traditional Family get-togethers can include a meal and an activity such as going to see a movie. However,there are other ideas that can help make get-togethers memorable and provide moments that enrich the lives of family members. ____36____ One way to make a family get-together memorable is to give it an environmentally friendly theme. A garden can be planted, for example, include vegetables that can be eaten for future get-togethers. A tree could be planted and called the family tree. The family get-together could also be planned for a specific place such as a community nature center. The family could participate in an environmental project such as a neighborhood clean-up, or cleaning streams or roadsides. Be active Family get-togethers can have physical activity as a main focus of the fun. Families can gather at a beach and go swimming. Building sand castles also requires exertion. Other beach activities can include kite flying and searching for shells. A family get-together can also be planned for a park that has a nature trail. A picnic meal can provide food, and everyone can take a hi ke for exercise. A family get-together can also have a sports theme when planned for a location that has a basketball court, tennis court or some other sporting venue. For places with snow, families can go sledding or skiing together. Museum or historic Site A family get-together can also be an educational gathering. For example, a get-together planned at a museum can provide entertainment as well as educational value. Family members can talk and catch up with one another while touring the museum. Contact the local chamber of commerce (商会) to find historical sites, which can provide memorable scenery to a family get-together. 36. The main purpose of the passage is ________. A. to give us some advice on how to plan a family get-together B. to introduce some ways of making family get-togethers unusual C. to compare traditional family get-togethers with modern unusual D. to tell us why and where we often need a family get-together 37. Which of the following is the best choice for the blank? A. Be planned. B. Family tree. C. Go green. D. Community nature center. 38. What does the underlined word “exertion” in Para.3 really mean? A.

In Croatia taking a gap year is not as common as in other countries,but Romano decided to take a break for a year or two after high school and try volunteering in Africa. Upon arrival in Arusha Tanzania, Romano found a volunteering project through an organization. Now he helps poor children and teaches them English and math. These children are not abandoned. They come from low-income families and any help is welcome. There is no soap or running water in the school, and to learn English, the children depend on volunteers because there are not enough qualified teachers. ‌“They don’t have much, they are poor, but honest and happy, because they are not aware that there may be something better out there for them. As I was lecturing, I saw the materials they used for learning: worn-out pencils, one eraser for 20 children, torn and printed notebooks,and not to mention clothes and shoes. I will only tell you that uniforms are worn to conceal (掩饰) their clothing and thus to mask material inequality,” says Romano, who was therefore encouraged to launch a charity action to collect donations for children’s necessities. Romano believes that every child has the right to the basics, including education. It is for this reason that he wants to help these little ones. ‌“Even though I was aware of it before, I realized how privileged I am in life just because I was born on another continent. I learned to appreciate more what I have and manage without the basics. As a result, I met a different culture, tested my limits and looked at things from a different perspective — a gratitude perspective,” concludes Romano, hoping that little by little, both he and other volunteers will contribute to positive change through their work. 40. Why did Romano come to Arusha? A. To prepare for his college life, B. To help children there as a volunteer. C. Te earn money as a part-time teacher. D. To promote an educational program. 41. Why did Romano say they were poor but honest and happy? A. They didn’t want much. B. They didn’t realize that there may be something better out there for them. C. They wore uniforms. D. Romano encouraged themselves to launch a charity action to collect donations for children’s necessities. 42. What did Romano learn from his experience? A. All children should have access to education. B. We should try our best to make the world better. C. He should treasure more his life and feel grateful. D. He should work hard in college to be more powerful. C Scientists say they’ve developed a system using machine learning to predict when and where lighting will strike. The research was led by engineers from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, Switzerland. European researchers have estimated that between 6,000 and 24,000 people are killed by lightning worldwide each year. The strikes can also cause power outages, destroy property, damage electrical equipment and start forest fires. For these reasons, climate scientists have long sought to develop methods to predict and control lightning. In the United States and other places, ground-based sensing devices are used to identify strikes as they happen. But, no system has been created to effectively predict lightning. The system tested in the experiments used a combination of data from weather stations and machine learning methods. The researchers developed a prediction model that was trained to recognize weather conditions that were likely to cause lightning. The model was created with data collected over a 12-year period from 12 Swiss weather stations in cities and mountain areas. The data related to four main surface conditions; air pressure, air temperature, relative humidity and wind speed. The atmospheric data was placed into a machine learning algorithm (算法) , which compared it to records of lightning strikes. Researchers say the algorithm was then able to learn the conditions under which lightning happens. Amirhossein Mostajabi is a PhD student at the institute who led the development of the method. He said, ‌“ current systems for gathering such data are slow and complex and require costly collection equipment like radar or satellites.” ‌“Our method uses data that can be obtained from any weather station,” Mostajabi said. ‌“This will improve data collection in very remote areas not covered by radar and satellite or in places where communication systems have been cut,” he added. The researchers plan to keep developing the technology in partnership with a European effort that aims to create a lightning protection system. The effort is called the European Laser Lightning Rod project. 43. Why have climate scientists tried to predict and control lighting? A. To collect relative data. B. To reduce the destruction lightning has been causing. C. To create a scientific system. D. To do research in relation to machine learning. 44. What does the underlined word‌ “it” in paragraph 5 refer to? A. lighting. B. the system being tested. C. the atmospheric data. D. the machine learning algorithm. 45. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage? A. Lightning Causes Huge World Wide Damage B. Scientists Test Systems to Predict Lighting C. Machine Learning Has Made New Breakthrough D. A New Approach Has Improved Data Collection 第二部分 四、阅读表达：本大题共2小题，共20分。 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Learning outside of a classroom may still be a new thing for many people but not for Kamer ·Meli·Veseli, who’s completing his final year of high school that way. His family moved from Kosovo to Switzerland, so he’s doing his coursework remotely and will take a big test with all of his teachers at the end of the year. It’s the ideal arrangement for Meli since it allows him to manage his own schedule and pursue other interests in his free time. That’s where Spark and online learning come in. Meli has always been a serious gamer, but he’s not just looking to have fun. He likes examining the technology behind his favorite games and is curious to understand how developers create the graphics, textures, and special effects. He really wanted to make his own games and actually did develop a couple on Android but wasn’t satisfied with the results. Searching for online courses that could take his game to the next level, he found Spark, and it was “one of the happiest days of my life.” But gaming isn’t the extent of Meli’s interests. He’s also a hopeful singer who’d always lacked the confidence to sing in public. Then he took courses on Spark and discovered exercises that could help him loosen and relax his throat and release his voice “10 times better in 10 minutes.” Now he plans for Switzerland’s version of the TV show “The Voice” in 2016! With Spark courses, Meli’s also brushing up on his drawing skills, which he picked up in his childhood. He finally created a perfect portrait of his older brother. Wherever Meli’s dreams take him, he knows he’ll be able to find relevant courses on Spark: “The variety is unlimited — so many languages, all kinds of software, even things like meditation and cultural lessons. Whatever you want to learn, you’ll find it on Spark.” 46. According to the first paragraph, how does Spark influence Meli’s life? (no more than 10 words) ________________ 47. When did Meli find Spark? (no more than 15 words) ________________ 48. What does the underlined phrase mean in paragraph 3?(no more than 1 word) ________________ 49.

For younger family members get-togethers can reinforce (加强) family traditions and can be learning experiences that help them to grow and mature. Traditional Family get-togethers can include a meal and an activity such as going to see a movie. However,there are other ideas that can help make get-togethers memorable and provide moments that enrich the lives of family members. ____36____ One way to make a family get-together memorable is to give it an environmentally friendly theme. A garden can be planted, for example, include vegetables that can be eaten for future get-togethers. A tree could be planted and called the family tree. The family get-together could also be planned for a specific place such as a community nature center. The family could participate in an environmental project such as a neighborhood clean-up, or cleaning streams or roadsides. Be active Family get-togethers can have physical activity as a main focus of the fun. Families can gather at a beach and go swimming. Building sand castles also requires exertion. Other beach activities can include kite flying and searching for shells. A family get-together can also be planned for a park that has a nature trail. A picnic meal can provide food, and everyone can take a hi ke for exercise. A family get-together can also have a sports theme when planned for a location that has a basketball court, tennis court or some other sporting venue. For places with snow, families can go sledding or skiing together. Museum or historic Site A family get-together can also be an educational gathering. For example a get-together planned at a museum can provide entertainment as well as educational value. Family members can talk and catch up with one another while touring the museum. Contact the local chamber of commerce (商会) to find historical sites, which can provide memorable scenery to a family get-together. 36. The main purpose of the passage is ________.

In Croatia taking a gap year is not as common as in other countries,but Romano decided to take a break for a year or two after high school and try volunteering in Africa. Upon arrival in Arusha Tanzania, Romano found a volunteering project through an organization. Now he helps poor children and teaches them English and math. These children are not abandoned. They come from low-income families and any help is welcome. There is no soap or running water in the school, and to learn English, the children depend on volunteers because there are not enough qualified teachers. ‌“They don’t have much, they are poor, but honest and happy, because they are not aware that there may be something better out there for them. As I was lecturing, I saw the materials they used for learning: worn-out pencils, one eraser for 20 children, torn and printed notebooks,and not to mention clothes and shoes. I will only tell you that uniforms are worn to conceal (掩饰) their clothing and thus to mask material inequality,” says Romano, who was therefore encouraged to launch a charity action to collect donations for children’s necessities. Romano believes that every child has the right to the basics, including education. It is for this reason that he wants to help these little ones. ‌“Even though I was aware of it before, I realized how privileged I am in life just because I was born on another continent. I learned to appreciate more what I have and manage without the basics. As a result, I met a different culture, tested my limits and looked at things from a different perspective — a gratitude perspective,” concludes Romano, hoping that little by little, both he and other volunteers will contribute to positive change through their work. 40. Why did Romano come to Arusha? A. To prepare for his college life, B. To help children there as a volunteer. C. Te earn money as a part-time teacher. D. To promote an educational program. 41. Why did Romano say they were poor but honest and happy? A. They didn’t want much. B. They didn’t realize that there may be something better out there for them. C. They wore uniforms. D. Romano encouraged themselves to launch a charity action to collect donations for children’s necessities. 42. What did Romano learn from his experience? A. All children should have access to education. B. We should try our best to make the world better. C. He should treasure more his life and feel grateful. D. He should work hard in college to be more powerful. 【答案】40. B 41. B 42. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了19岁的克罗地亚青年Romano高中毕业后去坦桑尼亚阿鲁沙做志愿者，帮助贫困儿童，还发起慈善行动，他也从这段经历中有了新感悟。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Upon arrival in Arusha Tanzania, Romano found a volunteering project through an organization. Now he helps poor children and teaches them English and math.(抵达坦桑尼亚阿鲁沙后，Romano通过一个组织找到了一个志愿服务项目。现在他帮助贫困儿童，教他们英语和数学)”可知，Romano来到阿鲁沙是作为志愿者帮助那里的孩子。故选B项。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“They don’t have much, they are poor, but honest and happy, because they are not aware that there may be something better out there for them.(他们拥有的不多，他们很穷，但诚实且快乐，因为他们没有意识到外面可能有更好的东西等着他们)”可知，Romano说他们穷但诚实快乐是因为他们没意识到外面可能有更好的东西。故选B项。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“I learned to appreciate more what I have and manage without the basics. As a result, I met a different culture, tested my limits and looked at things from a different perspective — a gratitude perspective(我学会了更加珍惜我所拥有的，并且在没有基本生活物资的情况下也能应对。因此，我接触到了不同的文化，挑战了自己的极限，从不同的视角——感恩的视角来看待事物)”可知，Romano从这次经历中学到他应该更加珍惜自己的生活并心怀感恩。故选C项。 C Scientists say they’ve developed a system using machine learning to predict when and where lighting will strike. The research was led by engineers from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, Switzerland. European researchers have estimated that between 6,000 and 24,000 people are killed by lightning worldwide each year. The strikes can also cause power outages, destroy property, damage electrical equipment and start forest fires. For these reasons, climate scientists have long sought to develop methods to predict and control lightning. In the United States and other places, ground-based sensing devices are used to identify strikes as they happen. But, no system has been created to effectively predict lightning. The system tested in the experiments used a combination of data from weather stations and machine learning methods. The researchers developed a prediction model that was trained to recognize weather conditions that were likely to cause lightning. The model was created with data collected over a 12-year period from 12 Swiss weather stations in cities and mountain areas. The data related to four main surface conditions; air pressure, air temperature, relative humidity and wind speed. The atmospheric data was placed into a machine learning algorithm (算法) , which compared it to records of lightning strikes. Researchers say the algorithm was then able to learn the conditions under which lightning happens. Amirhossein Mostajabi is a PhD student at the institute who led the development of the method. He said, ‌“ current systems for gathering such data are slow and complex and require costly collection equipment like radar or satellites.” ‌“Our method uses data that can be obtained from any weather station,” Mostajabi said. ‌“This will improve data collection in very remote areas not covered by radar and satellite or in places where communication systems have been cut,” he added. The researchers plan to keep developing the technology in partnership with a European effort that aims to create a lightning protection system. The effort is called the European Laser Lightning Rod project. 43. Why have climate scientists tried to predict and control lighting? A. To collect relative data. B. To reduce the destruction lightning has been causing. C. To create a scientific system. D. To do research in relation to machine learning. 44. What does the underlined word‌ “it” in paragraph 5 refer to? A. lighting. B. the system being tested. C. the atmospheric data. D. the machine learning algorithm. 45. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage? A. Lightning Causes Huge World Wide Damage B. Scientists Test Systems to Predict Lighting C. Machine Learning Has Made New Breakthrough D. A New Approach Has Improved Data Collection 【答案】43. B 44. C 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了科学家开发出一种利用机器学习预测闪电何时何地发生的系统。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The strikes can also cause power outages, destroy property, damage electrical equipment and start forest fires. For these reasons, climate scientists have long sought to develop methods to predict and control lightning.(闪电还会导致停电、破坏财产、损坏电气设备并引发森林火灾。出于这些原因，气候科学家长期以来一直试图开发预测和控制闪电的方法)”可知，气候科学家试图预测和控制闪电是为了减少闪电造成的破坏。故选B项。 【44题详解】 词句猜测题。根据指代关系和划线词所在句“The atmospheric data was placed into a machine learning algorithm (算法), which compared it to records of lightning strikes.(大气数据被输入到一个机器学习算法中，该算法将它与雷击记录进行比较)”可知，指示代词“it”指代前面提到的“the atmospheric data(大气数据)”。故选C项。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段“Scientists say they’ve developed a system using machine learning to predict when and where lighting will strike.(科学家表示，他们已经开发出一种利用机器学习预测闪电何时何地发生的系统)”可知，本文主要介绍了科学家开发出预测闪电的系统。故B项“Scientists Test Systems to Predict Lighting(科学家测试预测闪电的系统)”为本文大意。故选B项。 第二部分 四、阅读表达：本大题共2小题，共20分。 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Learning outside of a classroom may still be a new thing for many people but not for Kamer ·Meli·Veseli, who’s completing his final year of high school that way. His family moved from Kosovo to Switzerland, so he’s doing his coursework remotely and will take a big test with all of his teachers at the end of the year. It’s the ideal arrangement for Meli since it allows him to manage his own schedule and pursue other interests in his free time. That’s where Spark and online learning come in. Meli has always been a serious gamer, but he’s not just looking to have fun. He likes examining the technology behind his favorite games and is curious to understand how developers create the graphics, textures, and special effects. He really wanted to make his own games and actually did develop a couple on Android but wasn’t satisfied with the results. Searching for online courses that could take his game to the next level, he found Spark, and it was “one of the happiest days of my life.” But gaming isn’t the extent of Meli’s interests. He’s also a hopeful singer who’d always lacked the confidence to sing in public. Then he took courses on Spark and discovered exercises that could help him loosen and relax his throat and release his voice “10 times better in 10 minutes.” Now he plans for Switzerland’s version of the TV show “The Voice” in 2016! With Spark courses, Meli’s also brushing up on his drawing skills, which he picked up in his childhood. He finally created a perfect portrait of his older brother. Wherever Meli’s dreams take him, he knows he’ll be able to find relevant courses on Spark: “The variety is unlimited — so many languages, all kinds of software, even things like meditation and cultural lessons. Whatever you want to learn, you’ll find it on Spark.” 46. According to the first paragraph, how does Spark influence Meli’s life? (no more than 10 words) ________________ 47.
