I 'm happy to share the cost of petrol.(我需要搭车。我7:30开始工作，我不能迟到，但是我没有交通工具。)” 可知，埃琳娜会在学生空间发帖是想找人让她搭便车。故选D。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据2.Contacts中的“I want to go to Australia in the summer and work there, then visit some other countries.

It turned into a lifelong thing. Over more than fifty years, Hearn has raised 56 dogs to help visually impaired (视力受损的) people. But her influence doesn’t end there — the longtime high school teacher has encouraged several of her family members and some of her students to train many more. When she looked to her parents for support years ago, things were different from what she expected. Her mom didn’t like dogs, and her dad doubted she would be able to find any money to pay for the cost of the training. However, Hearn presented the project at a Lions Club and raised $2, 500. So on a sunny summer day in 1962, the family drove home with a black Lab named Letta, the first of a long series of dog trainees. Two sons and a granddaughter have followed in Hearn’s footsteps, but her greatest influence has come from guiding student trainers, who since 1992 have worked through a school club with 170 dogs that ended up in different service posts. They spend 14 months with each dog teaching them skills. The dogs live full-time with the students, attending their classes and field trips to become socialized. The dogs then go to trainers employed by Guide Dogs for the Blind, an organization that partners with the program, before graduating and being paired with two-legged companions. Those that aren’t up to the difficult task of helping the blind can become other kinds of service animals. Often students attend the graduations and help pass the dogs on. “I love seeing the look on kids’ faces ... when they get to see that dog again after three or four months and the dog remembers them,” Hearn said. “It’s a great feeling.” 4. What has Hearn done since she was a child? A. She has collected money for the blind. B. She has trained dogs to help the blind. C. She has petted and cared for many homeless dogs. D. She has provided the blind with education for free. 5. What was the attitude of Hearn’s dad towards her plan? A Mad. B. Uncaring. C. Unacceptable. D. Supportive. 6. If a dog fails to help the blind after graduation, it will _____. A. continue to be trained B. be taken away as a pet C. live full-time with Hearn’s students D. become another kind of service animal 7. Which of the following can best describe Hearn? A. Honest and hard-working. B. Strong-minded and caring. C. Outgoing and careful. D. Strict and creative. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是记叙文。Marybeth Hearn几十年如一日训练导盲犬来帮助有视觉障碍的人群，影响了周围很多人。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“When Marybeth Hearn was 10 years old, she asked her parents to let her train a dog to become a guide dog. It turned into a lifelong thing. Over more than fifty years, Hearn has raised 56 dogs to help visually impaired (视力受损的) people. ( 当玛丽贝斯·赫恩10岁的时候，她请求父母让她训练一只狗成为导盲犬。这变成了一件终生的事情。在50多年的时间里，赫恩已经养了56只狗来帮助视障人士。)”可知，Hearn从小就开始帮助有视觉障碍的人群训练导盲犬。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“When she looked to her parents for support years ago, things were different from what she expected. Her mom didn’t like dogs, and her dad doubted she would be able to find any money to pay for the cost of the training. ( 几年前，当她向父母寻求支持时，情况与她所期望的不同。她的妈妈不喜欢狗，她的爸爸怀疑她是否能找到钱来支付训练的费用。)”可知，她的父亲最初对她的计划表示怀疑，不接受。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Those that aren’t up to the difficult task of helping the blind can become other kinds of service animals. (那些不能胜任帮助盲人这项艰巨任务的动物可以成为其他类型的服务性动物。)”可知，未通过考核的狗将成为其他类别的服务犬。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“Over more than fifty years, Hearn has raised 56 dogs to help visually impaired (视力受损的) people. (在50多年的时间里，赫恩已经养了56只狗来帮助视障人士。)”和第二段的“When she looked to her parents for support years ago, things were different from what she expected. Her mom didn’t like dogs, and her dad doubted she would be able to find any money to pay for the cost of the training. However, Hearn presented the project at a Lions Club and raised $2, 500. ( 几年前，当她向父母寻求支持时，情况与她所期望的不同。她的妈妈不喜欢狗，她的爸爸怀疑她是否能找到钱来支付训练的费用。然而，赫恩在一个狮子俱乐部展示了这个项目，并筹集了2500美元。)”以及第三段的“Two sons and a granddaughter have followed in Hearn’s footsteps, but her greatest influence has come from guiding student trainers ( 两个儿子和一个孙女都继承了赫恩的足迹，但她最大的影响来自于指导学生训练员)”可知，Marybeth Hearn从小立志训练导盲犬帮助盲人。当初虽未得到父母的支持，但是她凭借自己的努力寻求到了赞助。她的行为影响了周围的好多人。由此可知，Hearn是一个意志坚定、关心他人的人。故选B。 C People will tell you the only way to really learn a language is to completely immerse(浸入)yourself in a country where that language is spoken. Not all language learners, of course, will have the opportunity to spend some time in an immersion environment. But if you can't actually fly across the world to learn a new language, you can always create an immersion environment where you can talk to native speakers. That's where Babbel comes in. Babbel is one of the most popular language learning apps on the market for studying new languages at your own pace. The app emphasises real-life conversational skills, so you won't be stopped by grammatical structures and verb patterns. And right now, you can get 15%off a lifetime subscription (订阅)to Babbel Language Learning（$150; stacksocial. com）.A lifetime subscription is huge when it comes to getting the most out of the app, since you'll be able to return to lessons time and time again and brush up on whichever section or topic you might need. So how does it all work? First, you'll choose one of the 14 languages. While Babbel offers familiar languages like Spanish and Italian, it also offers less commonly studied ones like Polish, Indonesian and more. Once you pick your language, you'll choose a wide range of real-life topics. Each course takes about 10 to 15 minutes, so you can pick one up on the way to work, during your lunch break, or really at any point you have some time to kill. Beyond this, Babbel includes a ton of additional features tailored to making sure you learn the language in a real, practical and accurate way. The app uses speech recognition technology to make sure your pronunciation is accurate compared with how native speakers would say certain words. 8. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us? A. The terrifying experiences of travelling. B. The importance of language learning environment. C. Different ways to learn a new language. D. Opportunities to communicate with native speakers. 9. What can we know about Babbel? A It's a tool for learning languages. B. It is designed in various types. C. It focuses more on grammar structures. D. It's the most popular app in the market. 10. What should the users do first to learn with the app? A. Choose the place to learn a course. B. Pick the language they want to learn. C. Calculate the reading time. D. Choose a proper topic. 11. Why does Babbel use speech recognition technology? A. To represent its additional features. B. To meet the needs of native speakers. C. To compare differences between words. D. To make the pronunciation correct. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一款名叫Babbel的学习语言的应用程序。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“People will tell you the only way to really learn a language is to completely immerse yourself in a country where that language is spoken. Not all language learners, of course,will have the opportunity to spend some time in an immersion environment. But if you can't actually fly across the world to learn a new language, you can always create an immersion environment where you can talk to native speakers.（人们会告诉你真正学习一门语言的唯一方法是完全沉浸在使用该语言的国家中。当然，并不是所有的语言学习者都有机会在浸入式环境中度过一段时间。但如果你真的不能飞越世界去学习一门新语言，你总是可以创造一个沉浸式的环境，在那里你可以和母语人士交谈。）”可知，此段主要阐述语言学习环境对学习语言是非常重要的。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Babbel is one of the most popular language learning apps on the market for studying new languages at your own pace.（Babbel是市场上最受欢迎的语言学习应用程序之一，可以根据自己的节奏学习新语言。）”可知，Babbel是一款学习语言的应用程序，即一种学习语言的工具。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“First, you’ll choose one of the 14 languages. While Babbel offers familiar languages like Spanish and Italian，it also offers less commonly studied ones like Polish，Indonesian and more.（首先，你要从14种语言中选择一种。虽然Babbel提供西班牙语和意大利语等人们熟悉的语言，但它也提供波兰语、印尼语等较少人学习的语言。）”可知，使用者首先要从学习软件提供的14种语言中挑选一种自己想要学习的语言。故选B。 11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“The app uses speech recognition technology to make sure your pronunciation is accurate compared with how native speakers would say certain words.（该应用程序使用语音识别技术来确保你的发音与母语人士说某些单词的发音相比是准确的。）”可知，Babbel用语音识别技术来确保发音的准确性。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。 How to Start a Conversation with Strangers Introduce Yourself It’s not necessary to be clever when you introduce yourself.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述如何和陌生人开始谈话。 【12题详解】 根据本段的小标题“介绍自己”和上文“When you approach the other person to start the conversation, give him a warm smile and clearly state your name. (当你接近对方开始谈话时，给他一个温暖的微笑，并清楚地说出你的名字。)”可推断下文应该介绍自己，描述自己的需求等，故F选项“解释一下你是谁，以及你为什么想进行这次谈话。”符合本段题意，紧扣上文，故选F。 【13题详解】 本段小标题Begin the Conversation“开始交谈”，所以可知应该是找一个合适的话题，然后才能开始交谈，故B选项“提出一个一般性的话题来开始谈话。”符合题意，故选B。 【14题详解】 根据上文“If you are building a rapport(关系), feel free to move on to a bit more personal topics to continue the conversation.(如果你们正在建立一种融洽的关系，请随意转移到一些更私人的话题继续对话。)”可知下文应该介绍什么样的话题更私人一些，G选项“你可能想问他最大的爱好，他的职业，他的课程或即将举行的活动。”正好符合私人话题的内容，故选G。 【15题详解】 设空处为本段小标题。根据本段第一句“When you have run out of things to say or need to move on to do something else, prepare your exit strategy.(当你无话可说或需要做其他事情时，准备好退出策略。)”可知本段是关于怎样结束谈话的，故A选项“结束谈话。”符合语境，故选A。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Let the other person know how much you enjoyed talking to her.

In the past few years, microplastics ___40___ (find) almost everywhere, from the North pole to Antarctica, from the top of the Earth’s ____41____ (high) mountain to the deepest point in the sea.

A. break down B. react to C. appeal to D. make inferences 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：她一直在等待西蒙打破他们之间的隔阂。A. break down打破，消除，出故障；B. react to对……作出反应；C. appeal to呼吁；D. make inferences作出推断。根据the barrier between them可知，此处表示等待打破隔阂，break down符合语境。故选A。 44.

A. turning B. to turn C. turned D. being turned 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：你介意我打开空调吗？“mind one’s doing sth.”是固定用法，表示“介意某人做某事”，one’s doing是动名词复合结构，该空用动名词形式作宾语。故选A项。 46. ________ with your kids heart to heart is very important. A. Talked B. To talk C. Talking D. being talked 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语。句意：与孩子们进行心与心的交流非常重要。分析句子结构可知，“________ with your kids heart to heart”在句中作主语，应用动名词短语形式，表示普遍性、习惯性动作，符合句意“真诚交谈是重要的日常行为”。且由句意可知，“和孩子谈心”是主动的行为，是家长主动去和孩子交流，而不是“被孩子谈”，所以应用talking。故选C项。 47.

A. What B. Which C. That D. Who 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查主语从句。句意：谁将成为下一任主席还没有决定。空处引导主语从句，从句中缺少主语，且根据语境可知，此处指的是成为下一任主席的人，所以用 who 引导从句，意为“谁”。What意为“什么”，通常指物；Which意为“哪一个”，在有范围选择时使用；That引导主语从句时，在从句中不充当任何成分，只起连接作用。故选D。 51.

It turned into a lifelong thing. Over more than fifty years, Hearn has raised 56 dogs to help visually impaired (视力受损的) people. But her influence doesn’t end there — the longtime high school teacher has encouraged several of her family members and some of her students to train many more. When she looked to her parents for support years ago, things were different from what she expected. Her mom didn’t like dogs, and her dad doubted she would be able to find any money to pay for the cost of the training. However, Hearn presented the project at a Lions Club and raised $2, 500. So on a sunny summer day in 1962, the family drove home with a black Lab named Letta, the first of a long series of dog trainees. Two sons and a granddaughter have followed in Hearn’s footsteps, but her greatest influence has come from guiding student trainers, who since 1992 have worked through a school club with 170 dogs that ended up in different service posts. They spend 14 months with each dog teaching them skills. The dogs live full-time with the students, attending their classes and field trips to become socialized. The dogs then go to trainers employed by Guide Dogs for the Blind, an organization that partners with the program, before graduating and being paired with two-legged companions. Those that aren’t up to the difficult task of helping the blind can become other kinds of service animals. Often students attend the graduations and help pass the dogs on. “I love seeing the look on kids’ faces ... when they get to see that dog again after three or four months and the dog remembers them,” Hearn said. “It’s a great feeling.” 4. What has Hearn done since she was a child? A. She has collected money for the blind. B. She has trained dogs to help the blind. C. She has petted and cared for many homeless dogs. D. She has provided the blind with education for free. 5. What was the attitude of Hearn’s dad towards her plan? A. Mad. B. Uncaring. C. Unacceptable. D. Supportive. 6. If a dog fails to help the blind after graduation, it will _____. A. continue to be trained B. be taken away as a pet C. live full-time with Hearn’s students D. become another kind of service animal 7. Which of the following can best describe Hearn? A. Honest and hard-working. B. Strong-minded and caring. C. Outgoing and careful. D. Strict and creative. C People will tell you the only way to really learn a language is to completely immerse(浸入)yourself in a country where that language is spoken. Not all language learners, of course, will have the opportunity to spend some time in an immersion environment. But if you can't actually fly across the world to learn a new language, you can always create an immersion environment where you can talk to native speakers. That's where Babbel comes in. Babbel is one of the most popular language learning apps on the market for studying new languages at your own pace. The app emphasises real-life conversational skills, so you won't be stopped by grammatical structures and verb patterns. And right now, you can get 15%off a lifetime subscription (订阅)to Babbel Language Learning（$150; stacksocial. com）.A lifetime subscription is huge when it comes to getting the most out of the app, since you'll be able to return to lessons time and time again and brush up on whichever section or topic you might need. So how does it all work? First, you'll choose one of the 14 languages. While Babbel offers familiar languages like Spanish and Italian, it also offers less commonly studied ones like Polish, Indonesian and more. Once you pick your language, you'll choose a wide range of real-life topics. Each course takes about 10 to 15 minutes, so you can pick one up on the way to work, during your lunch break, or really at any point you have some time to kill. Beyond this, Babbel includes a ton of additional features tailored to making sure you learn the language in a real, practical and accurate way.
