第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分65分)
第一节(共15小题,每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读短文,从每题所给的四个选现(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
Discover the Best of Beijing
Beijing’s rich culture and powerful atmosphere offer travellers a sensory feast.
Archaeological Site
A must — see for history buffs, the Ming Tombs scenic area contains the mausoleums (陵墓) of 13 of the 16 emperors who ruled China during the Ming Dynasty from 1368 to 1644. Three of the 13 mausoleums are open for visitors and offer an intriguing glimpse into Chinese history, grand Chinese architecture, and the cultural importance of ancestor worship. The Ming Tombs are located close to some entry points to the Great Wall, which makes it easy to combine the two sites during the same day trip.
UNESCO Site
The Forbidden City, today also known as the Palace Museum, was the home of the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties for 500 years until 1911. Located in the very heart of Beijing, the Forbidden City is a remarkable portrayal of Chinese history, culture, civilization, and architecture. The Palace Museum is the world’s largest palace complex and is said to have almost 1,000 buildings and 9,999 rooms.
Cultural Experience
To get a glimpse of Beijing before its magnificent glass buildings and skyscrapers, head to Gulou Street to explore one of the city’s remaining traditional neighborhoods, the hutongs. Hutongs are areas with narrow lanes and single story courtyard houses, but the city’s rapid modernization has left only a few of these historic neighborhoods standing. Go back in time and explore the hutongs around the Drum and Bell Towers, two landmark buildings that were used for telling time since the 13th century.
Best Day Trip
Even though the Summer Palace is located just 15 kilometers outside of central Beijing, a visit there is like entering another world. Consisting of palaces, lakes, and gardens, the Summer Palace was an imperial garden built by the Qing Dynasty for royal families to rest and entertain. It is the largest and best preserved imperial garden still in existence in China.
Most Iconic Place
The Great Wall of China is certainly not to be missed during your visit to Beijing. More than 27,000 people visit on an average day, which is an excellent reason for considering the less famous entry points, such as Jinshanling and Simatai. Some sections offer unique hiking opportunities with breathtaking landscapes of the surrounding mountains with the deserted wall snaking mysteriously into the horizon. For an experience you’ll never forget, consider camping out for a night at one of the watchtowers.
21. The underlined word “complex” means “________”.
A. difficult things B. connected things C. similar buildings D. large palaces
22. What is the largest imperial garden in China?
A. The Palace Museum. B. The hutongs.
C. The Drum and Bell Towers. D. The Summer Palace.
23. Where can you admire breathtaking view of the mountains?
A. At the Ming Tombs. B. At the Great Wall.
C At the Drum and Bell Towers. D. At the Summer Palace.
B
“All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” But now scientists have given us another warning: too much play with smartphones or computers makes you dull too.
“Many focus on the benefits of digital devices (设备) in education but ignore the costs,” said Patricia Greenfield from the University of California, “losing the ability to understand the emotions of other people is one of the costs.” Greenfield and her research team did an experiment. They worked with 105 children who spend about 4.5 hours in front of screens on a school day. The students were asked to describe the emotions towards the pictures of people who were happy, sad, angry or scared. Then, half of them attended a five-day nature and science camp. There they had no smartphones, TV, or computers. The other half stayed in school and spent the five days as usual. Five days later, all the children took the test again.
Students who had been to the camp got about 5 per cent more answers correct than they had done before the camp. But the other group of students didn’t show much improvement. The study is not perfect in some ways, said the researchers. But scientists say that the study is still a warning for us.
“Emotional skills develop in practice and the brain develops through real interaction,” said Professor Taylor, a professor at the University of San Francisco.
Researchers talked to 2, 000 parents of children aged 2—16 in the UK about what activities their children could do confidently. The results were surprising: their children could use a tablet (平板电脑) (59%) and work a mobile phone (57%) more confidently than they could tie their shoe laces (鞋带) (53%)! So, spend more time away from mobile phones and computers if you want to be an understanding friend, and not a member of what the Daily Mail called “Generation Helpless”.
24. According to Professor Greenfield, what’s the possible result of using digital media in education?
A. Being in bad terms with family members. B. Making more mistakes when taking exams.
C. Falling far behind others in all schoolwork. D. Failing to relate to other people’s emotions.
25. What do scientists think of the results of Greenfields experiment?
A. They are alarming for people. B. They are far from perfect.
C. They are quite surprising. D. They don’t need to be improved.
26. What can we know from the text?
A. Too much play with digital devices raised some worries.
B. Students learned how to describe emotions in the experiment.
C. Students living without screens did much better in studies.
D. Most of the UK children couldn’t tie their shoe laces.
27. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To warn us to stay away from the Internet.
B. To show screens do harm to emotions.
C. To show a digital world.
D. To explain how people become the Internet addicts.
C
Researchers recently offered the most complete examination yet of the history of penguins. They said penguins came from a common ancestor shared with a group of seabirds like albatrosses. Penguins first developed the ability to dive, and then lost the ability to fly as they adapted to water.
The earliest-known penguin is called Waimanu manneringi, from New Zealand. It is believed to have lived 61 million years ago. Penguins live mainly in the southern hemisphere. The Galapagos penguin is the only one found north of the equator. Daniel Ksepka of the Bruce Museum in Greenwich, Connecticut, is the co-writer of the study that was published in Nature Communications. Ksepka noted that penguins are appealing animals. He added that they are interestingly charming creatures. Apart from their funny upright posture, they love, they fight, and they steal, making it really easy to imagine them having all the same motivations as people.
The study proposes that changes in world temperatures and in major ocean currents have been important drivers of penguin evolution. Theresa Cole is the study’s lead writer. Cole said the research found a number of genes likely involved in physical changes known as adaptations.
Such adaptations include gene transforms that shift the way penguins see the world. Penguins’ vision is more sensitive toward the blue end of the color spectrum(光谱). Blue light goes more deeply into the ocean than light at the red end of the spectrum. Genes that help birds detect salty and sour tastes are active in penguins. But genes that help detect bitter and sweet tastes become inactive. Those may no longer be needed as penguins find food in cold, salty water and usually swallow the whole fish. Penguins show changes in their wing ones and a reduction of their flight feathers. Penguins also have reduced air spaces in the bone and the ability to store more oxygen in their muscles for long dives.
28. What does the underlined word “hemisphere” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Deep ocean. B. Earth’s pole.
C. Half globe. D. Large land.
29. Which of the following makes people tend to imagine penguins sharing human’s inner desires?
A. Penguins’ habitats. B. Penguins’ appearances.
C. Penguins’ characters. D. Penguins’ behaviors.
30. What mainly cause penguins to develop?
A. Physical changes from gene transforms. B. Changes of geographical environment.
C. Interactions with human beings. D. Competitions with other animals.
31. What is presented in the last paragraph?
A. How penguins survive by adaptions. B. Why penguins change their body.
C. How penguins are unique. D. What damages penguins’ genes.
D
To dye (染色) clothes by machines is very common now. But in ancient times, the whole process was completed by hands. This skill is called tie-dye (扎染). It is said that tie-dyed clothes appeared in the Qin Dynasty. During the Tang Dynasty, tie-dyed clothes became very popular and the most beautiful ones were sent to the emperors as gifts.
Yang Cheng, a 52-year-old man, was well-known for his tie-dye skills. He started learning tie-dye in the 1980s. Later, he went to other countries to learn different ways of tie-dye, such as Japan, India and France. He has been studying tie-dye for 35 years and he wants more people to know it. At present, he teaches tie-dye in schools, communities and companies. More than 100, 000 people have learned from him.
Tie-dye is one of Chinese intangible cultural heritages (非物质文化遗产). It has become very popular among people, even children can do it for fun. Liu Mei is a teacher at a kindergarten. She teaches kids to dye scarves. They tie a white scarf together at first, then they put the scarf into the dye. After they finish, there are some amazing pictures on it.

第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分65分)
第一节(共15小题,每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读短文,从每题所给的四个选现(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
Discover the Best of Beijing
Beijing’s rich culture and powerful atmosphere offer travellers a sensory feast.
Archaeological Site
A must — see for history buffs, the Ming Tombs scenic area contains the mausoleums (陵墓) of 13 of the 16 emperors who ruled China during the Ming Dynasty from 1368 to 1644. Three of the 13 mausoleums are open for visitors and offer an intriguing glimpse into Chinese history, grand Chinese architecture, and the cultural importance of ancestor worship. The Ming Tombs are located close to some entry points to the Great Wall, which makes it easy to combine the two sites during the same day trip.
UNESCO Site
The Forbidden City, today also known as the Palace Museum, was the home of the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties for 500 years until 1911. Located in the very heart of Beijing, the Forbidden City is a remarkable portrayal of Chinese history, culture, civilization, and architecture. The Palace Museum is the world’s largest palace complex and is said to have almost 1,000 buildings and 9,999 rooms.
Cultural Experience
To get a glimpse of Beijing before its magnificent glass buildings and skyscrapers, head to Gulou Street to explore one of the city’s remaining traditional neighborhoods, the hutongs. Hutongs are areas with narrow lanes and single story courtyard houses, but the city’s rapid modernization has left only a few of these historic neighborhoods standing. Go back in time and explore the hutongs around the Drum and Bell Towers, two landmark buildings that were used for telling time since the 13th century.
Best Day Trip
Even though the Summer Palace is located just 15 kilometers outside of central Beijing, a visit there is like entering another world. Consisting of palaces, lakes, and gardens, the Summer Palace was an imperial garden built by the Qing Dynasty for royal families to rest and entertain. It is the largest and best preserved imperial garden still in existence in China.
Most Iconic Place
The Great Wall of China is certainly not to be missed during your visit to Beijing. More than 27,000 people visit on an average day, which is an excellent reason for considering the less famous entry points, such as Jinshanling and Simatai. Some sections offer unique hiking opportunities with breathtaking landscapes of the surrounding mountains with the deserted wall snaking mysteriously into the horizon. For an experience you’ll never forget, consider camping out for a night at one of the watchtowers.
21. The underlined word “complex” means “________”.
A. difficult things B. connected things C. similar buildings D. large palaces
22. What is the largest imperial garden in China?
A. The Palace Museum. B. The hutongs.
C. The Drum and Bell Towers. D. The Summer Palace.
23. Where can you admire breathtaking view of the mountains?
A. At the Ming Tombs. B. At the Great Wall.
C. At the Drum and Bell Towers. D. At the Summer Palace.
【答案】21. C 22. D 23. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了北京市的不同景点和文化体验。

“All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” But now scientists have given us another warning: too much play with smartphones or computers makes you dull too.
“Many focus on the benefits of digital devices (设备) in education but ignore the costs,” said Patricia Greenfield from the University of California, “losing the ability to understand the emotions of other people is one of the costs.” Greenfield and her research team did an experiment. They worked with 105 children who spend about 4.5 hours in front of screens on a school day. The students were asked to describe the emotions towards the pictures of people who were happy, sad, angry or scared. Then, half of them attended a five-day nature and science camp. There they had no smartphones, TV, or computers. The other half stayed in school and spent the five days as usual. Five days later, all the children took the test again.
Students who had been to the camp got about 5 per cent more answers correct than they had done before the camp. But the other group of students didn’t show much improvement. The study is not perfect in some ways, said the researchers. But scientists say that the study is still a warning for us.
“Emotional skills develop in practice and the brain develops through real interaction,” said Professor Taylor, a professor at the University of San Francisco.
Researchers talked to 2, 000 parents of children aged 2—16 in the UK about what activities their children could do confidently. The results were surprising: their children could use a tablet (平板电脑) (59%) and work a mobile phone (57%) more confidently than they could tie their shoe laces (鞋带) (53%)! So, spend more time away from mobile phones and computers if you want to be an understanding friend, and not a member of what the Daily Mail called “Generation Helpless”.
24. According to Professor Greenfield, what’s the possible result of using digital media in education?
A. Being in bad terms with family members. B. Making more mistakes when taking exams.
C. Falling far behind others in all schoolwork. D. Failing to relate to other people’s emotions.
25. What do scientists think of the results of Greenfields experiment?
A. They are alarming for people. B. They are far from perfect.
C. They are quite surprising. D. They don’t need to be improved.
26. What can we know from the text?
A. Too much play with digital devices raised some worries.
B. Students learned how to describe emotions in the experiment.
C. Students living without screens did much better in studies.
D. Most of the UK children couldn’t tie their shoe laces.
27. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To warn us to stay away from the Internet.
B. To show screens do harm to emotions.
C. To show a digital world.
D. To explain how people become the Internet addicts.
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. A 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了科学家对于人们长期接触电子产品造成的影响的测试。通过对不同组学生参与不同的活动以后的情感测试,得出结果:长期接触电子产品会让人缺失一些情感因素以及降低对他人的理解能力。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段““Many focus on the benefits of digital devices (设备) in education but ignore the costs,” said Patricia Greenfield from the University of California, “losing the ability to understand the emotions of other people is one of the costs.”(加州大学的Patricia Greenfield说:“许多人只关注数字设备在教育中的好处,却忽视了其代价。失去理解他人情绪的能力是代价之一。”)”可知,根据Greenfield教授的说法,在教育中使用数字设备会导致无法理解他人的情感。故选D。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“The study is not perfect in some ways, said the researchers. But scientists say that the study is still a warning for us.(研究人员说,这项研究在某些方面并不完美。但科学家们表示这项研究仍然是对我们的一个警告)”可知,科学家们认为Greenfield教授的实验结果给人警告。故选A。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段““All work and no play make Jack a dull boy.” But now scientists have given us another warning: too much play with smartphones or computers makes you dull too.”(“只工作不玩耍,聪明孩子也变傻。”但现在科学家们还提醒我们另一个警告:过度玩智能手机或电脑也会让你变傻)”以及最后一段“The results were surprising: their children could use a tablet (平板电脑) (59%) and work a mobile phone (57%) more confidently than they could tie their shoe laces (鞋带) (53%)!(结果令人惊讶:他们的孩子在使用平板电脑(59%)和使用手机(57%)时比系鞋带(53%)更自信!)”可推知,过多地使用数字设备引发了一些担忧。故选A。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“But now scientists have given us another warning: too much play with smartphones or computers makes you dull too.(但现在科学家们给了我们另一个警告:过度玩智能手机或电脑也会让你变傻)”并结合文章主要介绍了科学家对于人们长期接触电子产品造成的影响的测试,通过对不同组学生参加不同的活动以后的情感测试,结果显示:长期接触电子产品会让人缺失一些情感因素以及降低对他人的理解能力,因此本文的目的是表明屏幕会伤害情感。故选B。
C
Researchers recently offered the most complete examination yet of the history of penguins. They said penguins came from a common ancestor shared with a group of seabirds like albatrosses. Penguins first developed the ability to dive, and then lost the ability to fly as they adapted to water.
The earliest-known penguin is called Waimanu manneringi, from New Zealand. It is believed to have lived 61 million years ago. Penguins live mainly in the southern hemisphere. The Galapagos penguin is the only one found north of the equator. Daniel Ksepka of the Bruce Museum in Greenwich, Connecticut, is the co-writer of the study that was published in Nature Communications. Ksepka noted that penguins are appealing animals. He added that they are interestingly charming creatures. Apart from their funny upright posture, they love, they fight, and they steal, making it really easy to imagine them having all the same motivations as people.
The study proposes that changes in world temperatures and in major ocean currents have been important drivers of penguin evolution. Theresa Cole is the study’s lead writer. Cole said the research found a number of genes likely involved in physical changes known as adaptations.
Such adaptations include gene transforms that shift the way penguins see the world. Penguins’ vision is more sensitive toward the blue end of the color spectrum(光谱). Blue light goes more deeply into the ocean than light at the red end of the spectrum. Genes that help birds detect salty and sour tastes are active in penguins. But genes that help detect bitter and sweet tastes become inactive. Those may no longer be needed as penguins find food in cold, salty water and usually swallow the whole fish. Penguins show changes in their wing ones and a reduction of their flight feathers. Penguins also have reduced air spaces in the bone and the ability to store more oxygen in their muscles for long dives.
28. What does the underlined word “hemisphere” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Deep ocean. B. Earth’s pole.
C. Half globe. D. Large land.
29. Which of the following makes people tend to imagine penguins sharing human’s inner desires?
A. Penguins’ habitats. B. Penguins’ appearances.
C. Penguins’ characters. D. Penguins’ behaviors.
30. What mainly cause penguins to develop?
A. Physical changes from gene transforms. B. Changes of geographical environment.
C. Interactions with human beings. D. Competitions with other animals.
31. What is presented in the last paragraph?
A. How penguins survive by adaptions. B. Why penguins change their body.
C. How penguins are unique. D. What damages penguins’ genes.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章主要讲述了研究者们对企鹅的起源及进化史所做的研究结果。
【28题详解】
词义猜测题。根据下一句“The Galapagos penguin is the only one found north of the equator.”(加拉帕戈斯企鹅是唯一在赤道以北发现的企鹅。)可知,企鹅主要的居住地应该是赤道以南,即南半球;结合划线词所在句“Penguins live mainly in the southern hemisphere.”中的“mainly”和“southern”可知,该句应该表示“企鹅主要生活在南半球”,故“hemisphere”应表示“半球”,即half globe。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Apart from their funny upright posture, they love, they fight, and they steal, making it really easy to imagine them having all the same motivations as people.”(除了滑稽的直立姿势,它们爱,它们打架,它们偷窃,让我们很容易想象它们有和人类一样的动机。)可知,企鹅的这些行为使人们很容易想象它们有着和人类一样的内心欲望,即动机。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The study proposes that changes in world temperatures and in major ocean currents have been important drivers of penguin evolution.”(该研究提出,世界温度和主要洋流的变化是企鹅进化的重要驱动力。)可知,气温、洋流等地理环境的改变,促使企鹅不断地进化、发展。故选B。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Such adaptations include gene transforms that shift the way penguins see the world.”(这种适应包括改变企鹅看待世界的方式的基因转变。)、“Those may no longer be needed as penguins find food in cold, salty water and usually swallow the whole fish.”(这些可能不再需要,因为企鹅在寒冷的咸水中寻找食物,通常会吞下整条鱼)、“Penguins show changes in their wing ones and a reduction of their flight feathers. ”(企鹅的翅膀会发生变化,飞行羽毛也会减少。)和“Penguins also have reduced air spaces in the bone and the ability to store more oxygen in their muscles for long dives.”(企鹅的骨骼中也有更少的空气空间,能够在肌肉中储存更多的氧气,以适应长时间的潜水。)可知,最后一段主要讲述了企鹅是如何通过适应环境的变化而改变自己,从而生存下来的。故选A。
D
To dye (染色) clothes by machines is very common now. But in ancient times, the whole process was completed by hands. This skill is called tie-dye (扎染). It is said that tie-dyed clothes appeared in the Qin Dynasty. During the Tang Dynasty, tie-dyed clothes became very popular and the most beautiful ones were sent to the emperors as gifts.

Later, he went to other countries to learn different ways of tie-dye, such as Japan, India and France. He has been studying tie-dye for 35 years and he wants more people to know it. At present, he teaches tie-dye in schools, communities and companies. More than 100, 000 people have learned from him.
Tie-dye is one of Chinese intangible cultural heritages (非物质文化遗产). It has become very popular among people, even children can do it for fun. Liu Mei is a teacher at a kindergarten. She teaches kids to dye scarves. They tie a white scarf together at first, then they put the scarf into the dye. After they finish, there are some amazing pictures on it.

【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“Later, he went to other countries to learn different ways of tie-dye, such as Japan, India and France.(后来,他又去日本、印度、法国等国家学习不同的扎染方法)”可知,杨成没有到美国去学习扎染。故选D项。
【34题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词前面的部分“They tie a white scarf together at first, then they put the scarf into the dye. After they finish, there are some amazing pictures on it.(他们先把一条白围巾系在一起,然后把围巾染上染料。他们完成后,有一些惊人的图片在上面)”可知,句中的it代指的上文提到的白围巾。故选B项。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“Liu Mei is a teacher at a kindergarten.(刘梅是一所幼儿园的老师)”可知,刘梅在幼儿园工作,A项正确;根据第二段的句子“Yang Cheng, a 52-year-old man, was well-known for his tie-dye skills. He started learning tie-dye in the 1980s.(52岁的杨成以扎染技艺闻名。他从20世纪80年代开始学习扎染)”可知,杨成20世纪80年代开始学习扎染,B项正确;根据第三段的句子“Tie-dye is one of Chinese intangible cultural heritages (非物质文化遗产)(扎染是中国非物质文化遗产之一)”可知,C项正确;根据第一段的句子“During the Tang Dynasty, tie-dyed clothes became very popular and the most beautiful ones were sent to the emperors as gifts.(在唐代,扎染的衣服变得非常流行,最漂亮的衣服被作为礼物送给皇帝)”可知,把扎染的衣服送给皇帝是在唐朝,而不是明朝,所以D项错误。故选D项。

56题详解】

考查时态和主谓一致。句意:但今天我们所知道的是,这个节日最初是为了纪念祖先。句子描述客观事实,时态用一般现在时,what引导的是主语从句,其后谓语动词用单数,因此空格处是is,故填is。

【63题详解】
考查副词。句意:传统上,腊八粥是这个节日最重要的一部分。空格处用副词作状语,修饰整个句子,traditional的副词是traditionally,意为“传统上”,位于句首的单词首字母大写,故填Traditionally。
【64题详解】
考查代词。句意:另一个习俗是泡腊八蒜,这是春节腊八节上最好的调味料。由“soaking Laba garlic”可知,句子表示“另一个习俗是泡腊八蒜”,空格处意为“另一个”,是another,位于句首的单词首字母大写,故填Another。
【65题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:另一个习俗是泡腊八蒜,这是春节腊八节上最好的调味料。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词Laba garlic是物,因此空格处用关系代词which,故填which。

【答案】Dear Fellow Students,
Everyone knows animals are our friends. But many animals are facing the danger of extinction, because the environment that they are living in has been destroyed greatly. What’s worse, human race is killing them just for getting their fur, skin, teeth and meat.
In order to protect our resources of ecology, our government should pass laws and forbid people to hunt the animals in danger. We can work together to plant more trees and call for protecting animals’ habitats. At the same time, it is necessary to have long-term projects to help the endangered animals. Only if we protect animals well can we have a bright future.
Yours,
