第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题,每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
A
Montreal has a unique culture, with its mixture of French and English. If you want to visit one of the best cities in North America, this is the place for you.
The French
Most places in Canada are English-speaking but Montreal is different. It is a city run by the French and for the French. If you want to work there, you have to speak French. The French and the English generally stay apart from each other. Most of the English can’t speak French and don’t want to learn; most of the French don’t like to speak English. However, it is this “conflict” of cultures that makes Montreal interesting.
Food
The best and unique Canadian food comes from the French. For example, you can find “poutine” — a tasty quick snack. This French invention is my personal favorite, although I must warn you that it isn’t for everyone. The best way to experience poutine is to go north of Montreal to one of the ski resorts. Spend all day skiing. Then, when your body aches all over, go to a mountain bar with friends and have a hot chocolate and a plate of poutine. You will understand why it’s the best food in the world.
Music & Cinema
Montreal is also great for music. There’s a famous jazz festival in the summer. You need a pass for most of the shows, which are usually performed outdoors during the day and night. But wherever you are in Montreal, you can hear the music while you are walking in the streets.
21. Where is this text probably taken from?
A. A travel plan.
B. A travel brochure(手册).
C. An encyclopedia(百科全书).
D. A science fiction.
22. What is necessary if you intend to work in Montreal?
A. Mastering skiing skills.
B. Favoring different cultures.
C. Understanding jazz music.
D. Communicating in French
23. When will you enjoy poutine the most?
A. After a day-long sightseeing.
B. After a tiring skiing experience.
C. When your body aches all over.
D. When you have a hot chocolate.
【答案】21. B 22. D 23. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了蒙特利尔这一城市的文化特色,从语言、食物、音乐和电影等方面详细描述了蒙特利尔独特的文化氛围和特色,旨在向读者展示这座城市的魅力和吸引力。
【21题详解】
推理判断题。文章开篇提到“Montreal has a unique culture, with its mixture of French and English. If you want to visit one of the best cities in North America, this is the place for you.(蒙特利尔拥有独特的文化,融合了法语和英语文化元素。如果你想游览北美最棒的城市之一,那么蒙特利尔就是你该去的地方。)”,由此可知,文章是向读者推荐蒙特利尔这个城市,接着从语言、美食、音乐等方面介绍了蒙特利尔的独特之处,这些内容都是关于旅游方面的信息,目的是吸引人们去蒙特利尔旅游。这符合旅游手册的内容。故选B。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“It is a city run by the French and for the French. If you want to work there, you have to speak French. (这是一座由法国人管理且为法国人服务的城市。如果你想在那里工作,就必须会说法语。)”可知,在蒙特利尔工作必须要会用法语交流。故选D。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The best and unique Canadian food comes from the French. For example, you can find “poutine” — a tasty quick snack. This French invention is my personal favorite, although I must warn you that it isn’t for everyone. The best way to experience poutine is to go north of Montreal to one of the ski resorts. Spend all day skiing. Then, when your body aches all over, go to a mountain bar with friends and have a hot chocolate and a plate of poutine. You will understand why it’s the best food in the world.(加拿大最棒且独特的美食源自法国文化。例如,你可以品尝到 “poutine”——一种美味的快餐小吃。虽然我得提醒你,这道法国美食并非适合所有人,但它却是我的个人最爱。体验poutine的最佳方式是前往蒙特利尔以北的一个滑雪胜地。花上一整天的时间滑雪。然后,当你浑身酸痛时,和朋友们一起去山间的酒吧,喝上一杯热巧克力,再吃上一盘poutine。届时你就会明白为什么它是世界上最美味的食物了。)”可知,体验poutine的最佳方式是先去蒙特利尔北部的滑雪胜地滑一整天雪,之后当浑身酸痛时,和朋友去山间酒吧喝热巧克力、吃“poutine”,所以最享受“poutine”的时刻是在疲惫的滑雪经历之后。故选B。
B
When I was 12 years old, I already knew that my teen years were going to be the worst years of my life. I was a total outsider, bullied (欺凌) at school. I felt completely alone in my small town.
But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy I shared, the more kindness and appreciation I received. I realized that my purpose in life would be to reach out to people, specifically teenagers, and help them feel less alone.
Books were my true friends back then. I was so thankful that the authors wrote those books. The kindness they offered me with their books saved my life. One of my biggest dreams was to become an author so I could write books that would help other teenagers the way those books helped me.
After surviving terrible experiences at school and at home, I made a choice to take the optimistic, positive road in the next steps of my journey. My dream career, one I thought was only possible for the authors I loved, is what I am doing now. I have been a full-time author of teen novels since 2007 and am grateful for this amazing opportunity to reach out to readers every single day.
Kindness saved me when I needed help the most. Even small acts of kindness can change someone’s life. You never know what someone else is going through. But by practicing daily kindness, you become an architect of positive change.
24. What was the author’s life like when he was 12?
A. Boring. B. Peaceful. C. Painful. D. Meaningful.

C. Treat others with kindness in daily life. D. Learn to care more about others’ feelings.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. B 27. C
【解析】

【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“I was a total outsider, bullied (欺凌) at school. I felt completely alone in my small town. (我完全是个局外人,在学校里受人欺负。在我的小镇上,我感到非常孤独。)”可推知,作者在12岁时感到非常的痛苦。故选C。

(那时,书是我真正的朋友。我非常感谢作者们写了这些书。他们在书中展示的善良救了我的命。我最大的梦想之一是成为一名作家,这样我就可以写书,像那些书帮助我一样帮助其他青少年。)”可知,作者选择成为一名作家,是因为他可以像那些作者一样通过书把正能量传递给读者。故选B。
【27题详解】

C
For hundreds of years, America’s wilderness has been reduced due to growing cities, leaving outdoors lovers like hunters with fewer chances. By around 1900, too much hunting drove America’s deer nearly into extinction (灭绝), less than a half-million deer, from 45 million in 1450.
Law-makers began to make rules to protect deer and keep ecological balance (生态平衡). And it did make a big difference. By 2000, the deer population had come up to 38 million. Those days, millions of deer lived side by side with humans and could freely find enough food resources.
Gradually, the number of deer was increasing too rapidly, which was not good for both the animals and people. City hunting plays an important role in keeping ecological balance, particularly in places where the animals sometimes cause major problems.
“City deer hunting is a management practice used in many cities and suburban areas across the United States,” says Jason Andrews, program manager of the Urban Deer Hunt in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. In the early 2000s, a high number of car accidents were caused by deer. And there was also significant vegetation degradation (植被退化) in many cities. Many possible solutions were researched by the city government. Some suggested hunting deer and other wild animals, but others were against that practice.
In the end, researchers determined that the most effective and sustainable (可持续的) population management solution would be hunting with bows. “City deer hunting is popular in cities that have too many wild deer as well as wooded areas,” says Andrews. “In Cedar Rapids, all parts of the city have right habitats to keep deer population, thus hunting is allowed. I must note that hunting is only allowed on private lands. No parks or any other public grounds can be hunted.”
28. What can we learn from paragraph 1?
A. The deer population was dropping rapidly.
B. Some cities grew smaller in the country.
C. The number of deer dropped to 1,450.
D. The deer population grew up by 45 million.
29. What can we infer about the rules for protecting deer?
A. They failed to be carried out in the US.
B. They were quite successful.
C. People had different attitudes towards them.
D. They were made by Jason Andrews.
30. Which tool is the best for deer hunting according to the text?
A. Stones. B. Guns. C. Branches. D. Bows.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Ways to Protect the Environment
B. The Number of Deer in the US
C. People’s Attitude to Deer Hunting
D. America’s Rules for Deer to Keep Ecological Balance
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. D 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国为保持生态平衡,制定了一系列关于如何管理鹿群的规定及其效果。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“For hundreds of years, America’s wilderness has been reduced due to growing cities, leaving outdoors lovers like hunters with fewer chances. By around 1900, too much hunting drove America’s deer nearly into extinction (灭绝), less than a half-million deer, from 45 million in 1450.(数百年来,由于城市的不断发展,美国的荒野已经减少,让像猎人这样的户外爱好者的机会越来越少。到1900年左右,过度的狩猎使美国的鹿几乎灭绝,从1450年的4500万只减少到现在的不到50万只。)”可知,鹿的数量正在迅速减少。故选A项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Law-makers began to make rules to protect deer and keep ecological balance (生态平衡). And it did make a big difference. By 2000, the deer population had come up to 38 million. Those days, millions of deer lived side by side with humans and could freely find enough food resources. (立法者开始制定保护鹿和保持生态平衡的规则。这确实产生了很大的影响。到2000年,鹿的数量达到了3800万只。那时候,数以百万计的鹿与人类生活在一起,可以自由地找到足够的食物资源。)”可知,保护鹿的规则非常成功。故选B项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In the end, researchers determined that the most effective and sustainable (可持续的) population management solution would be hunting with bows.(最后,研究人员确定,最有效和可持续的鹿群管理解决方案将是用弓打猎。)”可知,根据文章,弓是猎鹿的最佳工具。故选D项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“Law-makers began to make rules to protect deer and keep ecological balance (生态平衡). And it did make a big difference.(立法者开始制定保护鹿和保持生态平衡的规则。这确实产生了很大的影响。)”和第三段中“City deer hunting is a management practice used in many cities and suburban areas across the United States(城市猎鹿是美国许多城市和郊区使用的一种管理方法)”和最后一段中“In the end, researchers determined that the most effective and sustainable (可持续的) population management solution would be hunting with bows.(最后,研究人员确定,最有效和可持续的鹿群管理解决方案将是用弓打猎。)”以及全文可知,本篇文章主要讲述了美国为保持生态平衡,制定了一系列关于如何管理鹿群的规定及其效果。D项“美国对鹿群保持生态平衡的规定”符合题意,为最佳标题。故选D项。
D
As we live longer and technology continues its rapid development, we can imagine a future where machines will enlarge our human abilities and help us make better life choices, from health to wealth. Through our dialogue and digital pieces, artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能) will understand our life goals and wishes, our duties and limitations. It will help us plan different life events, so we can spend more time enjoying life’s moments.
The ability for AI to understand the complexities and slight differences of human conversation is, however, one hurdle (障碍). There are several thousand known living languages in the world today. Adding to the difficulties are the varied ways words are shared and used across different cultures, including grammar, levels of education and styles of the speakers. Google Duplex, the technology supporting Google Assistant, which places phone calls using a natural-sounding human voice instead of a robotic one, is an early attempt to address such challenges in human communications. But these are just initial whispers in voice of AI’s long journey.
Beyond making reservations and conducting simple dialogues, virtual assistants will need to become far more useful and further fit into the parts of our everyday lives. Not only will they need to foresee what we need before we ask, they also need to understand the context of our conversations and react accordingly. Imagine a snow day when school is canceled for the kids. Knowing that you must now stay at home with your children, your phone would remind you, asking if you’d like your meetings moved to the following day. Alternatively, imagine how much more pleasant your journey home from a business trip would be if your phone could automatically arrange for a ride waiting to pick you up at the airport, based on your travel plan, location, and habits. The possibilities are endless.
32. What do we know about AI?
A. It narrows our abilities. B. It limits our better choice.
C. It helps us enjoy life better. D. It doesn’t know our limitations.
33. What makes it hard for AI to understand what humans say?
A. Low level of speakers. B. Varieties of languages and cultures.
C. Imperfection of AI. D. Similarities between languages.
34. Which word can best describe the author’s attitude towards AI?
A. Supportive. B. Uncaring. C. Worried. D. Doubtful.
35. Which of the following can be the best title of the text?
A. AI Will Replace Humans B. AI Will Set Goals for Us
C. AI Will Meet Challenges D. AI Will Be Part of Our Daily Lives
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了未来人工智能会给我们生活带来很多便利,成为我们日常生活的一部分。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“It will help us plan different life events, so we can spend more time enjoying life’s moments.(它将帮助我们计划不同的生活事件,所以我们可以花更多的时间享受生活时刻)”可知,人工智能帮助我们更好地享受生活。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The ability for AI to understand the complexities and slight differences of human conversation is, however, one hurdle (障碍). There are several thousand known living languages in the world today. Adding to the difficulties are the varied ways words are shared and used across different cultures, including grammar, levels of education and styles of the speakers.(然而,人工智能理解人类对话的复杂性和细微差异的能力是一个障碍。世界上现存几千种语言。更加困难的是,不同文化之间共享和使用单词的方式各不相同,包括语法、教育水平和说话者的风格)”可知,语言和文化的多样性让人工智能很难理解人类说的话。故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“It will help us plan different life events, so we can spend more time enjoying life’s moments.(它将帮助我们计划不同生活事件,所以我们可以花更多的时间享受生活时刻)”以及最后一段中“The possibilities are endless.(可能性是无限的)”可知,作者一直在强调人工智能的优点,且对人工智能的未来充满期待。由此推知,作者是支持人工智能的。故选A。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“As we live longer and technology continues its rapid development, we can imagine a future where machines will enlarge our human abilities and help us make better life choices, from health to wealth. Through our dialogue and digital pieces, AI (artificial intelligence) will understand our life goals and wishes, our duties and limitations.(随着我们寿命的延长和技术的持续快速发展,我们可以想象一个未来,机器将扩大我们人类的能力,帮助我们从健康到财富等方面,做出更好的生活选择。通过我们的对话和数字作品,人工智能将了解我们的生活目标和愿望,我们的责任和限制)”可知,文章主要讲述了未来人工智能会给我们生活带来很多便利,成为我们日常生活的一部分。由此可知,D选项“人工智能将成为日常生活的一部分”适合作本文最佳标题。故选D。

第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题,每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
A
Montreal has a unique culture, with its mixture of French and English. If you want to visit one of the best cities in North America, this is the place for you.
The French
Most places in Canada are English-speaking, but Montreal is different. It is a city run by the French and for the French. If you want to work there, you have to speak French. The French and the English generally stay apart from each other. Most of the English can’t speak French and don’t want to learn; most of the French don’t like to speak English. However, it is this “conflict” of cultures that makes Montreal interesting.
Food
The best and unique Canadian food comes from the French. For example, you can find “poutine” — a tasty quick snack. This French invention is my personal favorite, although I must warn you that it isn’t for everyone. The best way to experience poutine is to go north of Montreal to one of the ski resorts. Spend all day skiing. Then, when your body aches all over, go to a mountain bar with friends and have a hot chocolate and a plate of poutine. You will understand why it’s the best food in the world.
Music & Cinema
Montreal is also great for music. There’s a famous jazz festival in the summer. You need a pass for most of the shows, which are usually performed outdoors during the day and night. But wherever you are in Montreal, you can hear the music while you are walking in the streets.
21. Where is this text probably taken from?
A. A travel plan.
B. A travel brochure(手册).
C. An encyclopedia(百科全书).
D. A science fiction.
22. What is necessary if you intend to work in Montreal?
A. Mastering skiing skills.
B. Favoring different cultures.
C. Understanding jazz music.
D. Communicating in French
23. When will you enjoy poutine the most?
A After a day-long sightseeing.
B. After a tiring skiing experience.
C. When your body aches all over.
D. When you have a hot chocolate.
B
When I was 12 years old, I already knew that my teen years were going to be the worst years of my life. I was a total outsider, bullied (欺凌) at school. I felt completely alone in my small town.
But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy I shared, the more kindness and appreciation I received. I realized that my purpose in life would be to reach out to people, specifically teenagers, and help them feel less alone.
Books were my true friends back then. I was so thankful that the authors wrote those books. The kindness they offered me with their books saved my life. One of my biggest dreams was to become an author so I could write books that would help other teenagers the way those books helped me.
After surviving terrible experiences at school and at home, I made a choice to take the optimistic, positive road in the next steps of my journey. My dream career, one I thought was only possible for the authors I loved, is what I am doing now. I have been a full-time author of teen novels since 2007 and am grateful for this amazing opportunity to reach out to readers every single day.
Kindness saved me when I needed help the most. Even small acts of kindness can change someone’s life. You never know what someone else is going through. But by practicing daily kindness, you become an architect of positive change.
24. What was the author’s life like when he was 12?
A. Boring. B. Peaceful. C. Painful. D. Meaningful.
25. How did the volunteer work benefit the author?
A. It made him popular in his town. B. It helped him find the meaning of life.
C. It helped him understand others’ lives better. D. It helped to shape his dream career.
26. Why did the author choose writing as his job?
A. He was inspired by his teacher. B. He could pass positive energy to readers.
C. He wanted to share his school experiences. D. He found he had a talent for writing.
27. What does the author suggest readers do in the last paragraph?
A. Say “no” to bullies bravely. B. Make positive changes in their lives.
C. Treat others with kindness in daily life. D. Learn to care more about others’ feelings.
C
For hundreds of years, America’s wilderness has been reduced due to growing cities, leaving outdoors lovers like hunters with fewer chances. By around 1900, too much hunting drove America’s deer nearly into extinction (灭绝), less than a half-million deer, from 45 million in 1450.
Law-makers began to make rules to protect deer and keep ecological balance (生态平衡). And it did make a big difference. By 2000, the deer population had come up to 38 million. Those days, millions of deer lived side by side with humans and could freely find enough food resources.
Gradually, the number of deer was increasing too rapidly, which was not good for both the animals and people. City hunting plays an important role in keeping ecological balance, particularly in places where the animals sometimes cause major problems.
“City deer hunting is a management practice used in many cities and suburban areas across the United States” says Jason Andrews, program manager of the Urban Deer Hunt in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. In the early 2000s, a high number of car accidents were caused by deer. And there was also significant vegetation degradation (植被退化) in many cities. Many possible solutions were researched by the city government. Some suggested hunting deer and other wild animals, but others were against that practice.
In the end, researchers determined that the most effective and sustainable (可持续的) population management solution would be hunting with bows. “City deer hunting is popular in cities that have too many wild deer as well as wooded areas,” says Andrews. “In Cedar Rapids, all parts of the city have right habitats to keep deer population, thus hunting is allowed. I must note that hunting is only allowed on private lands. No parks or any other public grounds can be hunted.”
28. What can we learn from paragraph 1?
A. The deer population was dropping rapidly.
B. Some cities grew smaller in the country.
C. The number of deer dropped to 1,450.
D. The deer population grew up by 45 million.
29. What can we infer about the rules for protecting deer?
A. They failed to be carried out in the US.
B. They were quite successful.
C. People had different attitudes towards them.
D. They were made by Jason Andrews.
30 Which tool is the best for deer hunting according to the text?
A. Stones. B. Guns. C. Branches. D. Bows.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Ways to Protect the Environment
B. The Number of Deer in the US
C. People’s Attitude to Deer Hunting
D. America’s Rules for Deer to Keep Ecological Balance
D
As we live longer and technology continues its rapid development, we can imagine a future where machines will enlarge our human abilities and help us make better life choices, from health to wealth. Through our dialogue and digital pieces, artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能) will understand our life goals and wishes, our duties and limitations. It will help us plan different life events, so we can spend more time enjoying life’s moments.
The ability for AI to understand the complexities and slight differences of human conversation is, however, one hurdle (障碍). There are several thousand known living languages in the world today. Adding to the difficulties are the varied ways words are shared and used across different cultures, including grammar, levels of education and styles of the speakers. Google Duplex, the technology supporting Google Assistant, which places phone calls using a natural-sounding human voice instead of a robotic one, is an early attempt to address such challenges in human communications. But these are just initial whispers in voice of AI’s long journey.
Beyond making reservations and conducting simple dialogues, virtual assistants will need to become far more useful and further fit into the parts of our everyday lives. Not only will they need to foresee what we need before we ask, they also need to understand the context of our conversations and react accordingly. Imagine a snow day when school is canceled for the kids. Knowing that you must now stay at home with your children, your phone would remind you, asking if you’d like your meetings moved to the following day. Alternatively, imagine how much more pleasant your journey home from a business trip would be if your phone could automatically arrange for a ride waiting to pick you up at the airport, based on your travel plan, location, and habits. The possibilities are endless.
32. What do we know about AI?
A. It narrows our abilities. B. It limits our better choice.
C. It helps us enjoy life better. D. It doesn’t know our limitations.
33. What makes it hard for AI to understand what humans say?
A. Low level of speakers. B. Varieties of languages and cultures.
C. Imperfection of AI. D. Similarities between languages.
34. Which word can best describe the author’s attitude towards AI?
A. Supportive. B. Uncaring. C. Worried. D. Doubtful.
35. Which of the following can be the best title of the text?
A. AI Will Replace Humans B. AI Will Set Goals for Us
C. AI Will Meet Challenges D. AI Will Be Part of Our Daily Lives
