B Once there was a poor lady who lived on a hill near the seashore. Her husband died. She had no children and lived by herself. She was so poor that she had to work hard every day. But one night as she sat at the table, the lady said to herself, “I wish I could be of some use to the world. Why can't I do good to someone else besides myself?” At last, she came up with an idea. She decided that she would keep a lighted lamp at the window for the sailors every night. She found that ships sometimes hit the rocks in the sea, since there was no lighthouse to warn them of the danger at night. Maybe her lamp would warn them when their ships came near the rocks on the coast. The lady felt glad when the thought came into her mind. She found that, if she worked an hour longer each night, she could make enough money to pay for the oil for the lamp. So she worked late and made money to buy the oil and then she placed the lamp at the window each night. In this way she saved many lives. She did this for five years without any reward, or the hope of reward. However, good deeds are often found out. The sailors whose lives had been saved began to send gifts to her from faraway countries. They sent her tea from China, cloth from India, silk from France and grapes from Spain. But the poor lady did not need these gifts to make her happy. She gave many of them to the poor and the sick. She was happy with the thought that she was doing something good. So, as long as she lived, she would light her lamp each night and place it at the window. 41. How might sailors feel when they saw the lamp at the window? A. Nervous. B. Thankful. C. Sorry. D. Proud. 42. How did the lady get the money to pay for the oil? A. She sold tea and grapes to others. B. She raised money from the sailors. C. She got money from the government. D. She worked one more hour each night. 43. What can we know about the lady? A. She knew the sailors. B. She worked on a ship. C. She was kind-hearted. D. She lived alone on the sea. 44. Why was the lady happy? A. Because more and more people knew her. B. Because she became much richer than before. C. Because she received great reward from others. D. Because she helped many people in her own way. 45. What's the best title for the text? A. The Lady's Lamp B. Ships in the Sea C. Gifts from Sailors D. Love for the Poor C When you think of the Arctic, you imagine an icy land of pure white snow. Others imagine it as the last really clean place left on earth. We have polluted the deepest oceans with plastic rubbish. “And now”, CNN says, “It's the Arctic's turn.” German scientists have recently found microplastics in Arctic snow. Microplastics are pieces of plastic smaller than 5 millimeters. Sadly, the scientists found 1800 pieces of microplastics per liter of snow. How is plastic pollution reaching the Arctic? According to scientists, “It's clear that most of the microplastics in the snow come from the air.” They fall off the plastic objects and are moved by the wind, just like dust. They mix with ice in the air and fall to the ground as snow. Finding these plastics in Arctic snow means that we may breathe them in. Are they bad for us? Scientists cannot answer this question for now according to the WHO. We do know that our bodies cannot take in “large” pieces of microplastics. However, if the plastics are small enough, they can find ways into our bodies and stay there for a long time, which can be bad for our health. What's more, earlier studies have shown that microplastics may contribute to lung cancer risk. Microplastics have also been found in rivers and oceans around the world. Earlier research has found that they flow over long distances and into our oceans, hurting ecosystems along the way. They start in our wastewater, then flow into rivers and out to the sea, where they are eaten by sea animals. If people then cat these animals, it means that we're eating the plastic as well. 46. What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A. the Arctic has been polluted by plastic rubbish B. the Arctic is an icy land of pure white snow. C. the Arctic is a beautiful icy land with clean air. D. the Arctic is the last rally clean place left on earth 47. Where do most of the microplatics in the snow come from? A. From water. B. From air. C. From wind. D. From food. 48. What does the underlined expression mean in the fourth paragragh? A. reduce B. donate C. cause D. help 49. Which of the following is NOT true? A. We may breathe microplastics in Arctic. B. Microplastics may contribute to lung cancer risk. C. We don't have to mind microplastics right now. D. Microplastics have hurt ecosystems. 50. How does the writer end this passage? A. By advising us to drink clean water. B. By asking people not to eat sea animals. C. By showing the beauty of Arctic. D. By telling the seriousness of plastic pollution. D Nowadays, it is more common for people to express their thoughts in an e-mail or text. In fact, more and more students use technology for written communication in their lives. Even so, research shows that teaching handwriting skills has its benefits. However, are the benefits worth spending valuable classroom time in teaching handwriting skills when students could be learning more about computer keyboarding? States across the country have good reasons to require students to learn computer keyboarding skills. For one, students are learning technology that will help them communicate faster with more people and in many different forms, such as e-mails, websites, blogs, and so on. Also the better a student’s computer keyboarding skills, the greater the chance that a student has to become a better writer. Computer tools such as the grammar and spell check make correcting quick and easy, although not 100％ accurate(准确的). With these and many other tools，students gain important computer skills. Furthermore, students no longer have to worry about their writing being graded poorly by teachers. All in all, computer keyboarding skills are a step in the right direction. Still, the advantages of computer keyboarding skills may not be enough to leave handwriting instruction in the dust. Marlena Hamilton, professor of neurology at University of Pennsylvania, did an experiment with her co-workers to study what happens in students’ brains when writing. They found that many of the areas of the brain light up. These are the same areas that are used to learn to read. They then wondered if the same would be true when students looked at letters on a keyboard. “What we found, “she states, “is that brains are much less involved when we just look at letters. When we actually use our hands to make things, the brain works much harder.” Schools across the nation are looking at the evidence and deciding what to do. William McIntyre, a reading coach at Sunshine Elementary School in Albany, New York, says, “What we have learned from the research is that learning handwriting benefits students educationally. What we also know is that students need to be taught keyboarding skills. Now, it is up to each school to make a decision. 51. From the first paragraph, we can know that _______. A. students don't want to learn handwriting skills any more. B. students don't like communicating with friends in person. C. students’ communicating by technology is more and more common. D. students spend more time in playing computer games than before. 52. What does the second paragraph mainly want to show? A. The roles of computer tools. B. The advantages of computer keyboarding skills. C. The importance of communication skills. D. The necessity of developing writing skills. 53. What's the author's attitude to students’ learning keyboarding skills? A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Uncaring. D. Supportive. 54. What can the result of Hamilton’s experiment show? A. Keyboarding skills are very useful. B. Handwriting is helpful for students to learn. C. Keyboarding makes our brain more active. D. Handwriting is more difficult than keyboarding. 55. What kind of decision does the author refer to in the last paragraph? A. Whether schools should offer computer classes. B. Whether schools should still teach handwriting. C. Whether students should learn keyboarding skills. D. Whether students should use the grammar and spell check. 第Ⅱ卷 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。 One night, during the first of my eldest son’s three basketball games, we happened to be sitting next to a lady with a young son. The little boy looked slightly younger than my youngest son. At one point in the game, the little guy looked over to my son, and said, “Wanna be my friend?” My husband leaned over to tell me what he heard. I spent the next 20 minutes taking pictures of my oldest son on the court, and my youngest son, with his new buddy, playing games two seats down from where I sat. It was a heartwarming scene and reminded me how easy it can be to make new friends. A few hours earlier, we went to a downtown cafe for an afternoon treat. There were no free tables for four, so we took a table for two, and crowded into the small space, each taking a bite of everyone else’s order. We were loud. We were very likely annoying the college students with open laptops, drinking coffee and working hard to finish midterm papers. One such young lady came over to our table and said, “I have more room at my table. I am happy to trade with you guys so you can spread out.” It was a simple act but it showed a selfless heart. We politely refused her offer, but her kindness stuck with me for hours after it happened. These are just two of everyday kindnesses I often take for granted. Though often neglected by us, these small acts of service, friendliness and human care are what it takes to make the world go round. 56. What was heart - warming according to Paragraph 1?

Her husband died. She had no children and lived by herself. She was so poor that she had to work hard every day. But one night as she sat at the table, the lady said to herself, “I wish I could be of some use to the world. Why can't I do good to someone else besides myself?” At last, she came up with an idea. She decided that she would keep a lighted lamp at the window for the sailors every night. She found that ships sometimes hit the rocks in the sea, since there was no lighthouse to warn them of the danger at night. Maybe her lamp would warn them when their ships came near the rocks on the coast. The lady felt glad when the thought came into her mind. She found that, if she worked an hour longer each night, she could make enough money to pay for the oil for the lamp. So she worked late and made money to buy the oil and then she placed the lamp at the window each night. In this way she saved many lives. She did this for five years without any reward, or the hope of reward. However, good deeds are often found out. The sailors whose lives had been saved began to send gifts to her from faraway countries. They sent her tea from China, cloth from India, silk from France and grapes from Spain. But the poor lady did not need these gifts to make her happy. She gave many of them to the poor and the sick. She was happy with the thought that she was doing something good. So, as long as she lived, she would light her lamp each night and place it at the window. 41. How might sailors feel when they saw the lamp at the window? A. Nervous. B. Thankful. C. Sorry. D. Proud. 42. How did the lady get the money to pay for the oil? A. She sold tea and grapes to others. B. She raised money from the sailors. C. She got money from the government. D. She worked one more hour each night. 43. What can we know about the lady? A. She knew the sailors. B. She worked on a ship. C She was kind-hearted. D. She lived alone on the sea. 44. Why was the lady happy? A. Because more and more people knew her. B. Because she became much richer than before. C. Because she received great reward from others. D. Because she helped many people in her own way. 45. What's the best title for the text? A. The Lady's Lamp B. Ships in the Sea C. Gifts from Sailors D. Love for the Poor 【答案】41. B 42. D 43. C 44. D 45.

Others imagine it as the last really clean place left on earth. We have polluted the deepest oceans with plastic rubbish. “And now”, CNN says, “It's the Arctic's turn.” German scientists have recently found microplastics in Arctic snow. Microplastics are pieces of plastic smaller than 5 millimeters. Sadly, the scientists found 1800 pieces of microplastics per liter of snow. How is plastic pollution reaching the Arctic? According to scientists, “It's clear that most of the microplastics in the snow come from the air.” They fall off the plastic objects and are moved by the wind, just like dust. They mix with ice in the air and fall to the ground as snow. Finding these plastics in Arctic snow means that we may breathe them in. Are they bad for us? Scientists cannot answer this question for now, according to the WHO. We do know that our bodies cannot take in “large” pieces of microplastics. However, if the plastics are small enough, they can find ways into our bodies and stay there for a long time, which can be bad for our health. What's more, earlier studies have shown that microplastics may contribute to lung cancer risk. Microplastics have also been found in rivers and oceans around the world. Earlier research has found that they flow over long distances and into our oceans, hurting ecosystems along the way. They start in our wastewater, then flow into rivers and out to the sea, where they are eaten by sea animals. If people then cat these animals, it means that we're eating the plastic as well. 46. What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A. the Arctic has been polluted by plastic rubbish B. the Arctic is an icy land of pure white snow. C. the Arctic is a beautiful icy land with clean air. D. the Arctic is the last rally clean place left on earth 47. Where do most of the microplatics in the snow come from? A. From water. B. From air. C. From wind. D. From food. 48. What does the underlined expression mean in the fourth paragragh? A. reduce B. donate C. cause D. help 49. Which of the following is NOT true? A. We may breathe microplastics in Arctic. B. Microplastics may contribute to lung cancer risk. C. We don't have to mind microplastics right now. D. Microplastics have hurt ecosystems. 50. How does the writer end this passage? A. By advising us to drink clean water. B. By asking people not to eat sea animals. C. By showing the beauty of Arctic. D. By telling the seriousness of plastic pollution. 【答案】46. A 47. B 48. C 49. C 50. D 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了如今出现了一种污染——微塑料。本文详细介绍了什么是微塑料以及它对人类和环境的危害。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“We have polluted the deepest oceans with plastic rubbish. “And now”, CNN says, “It's the Arctic's turn.”(我们用塑料垃圾污染了最深的海洋,CNN说“现在轮到北极了”)”，可知北极已经被塑料垃圾所污染，故选A。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“It’s clear that most of the microplastics in the snow come from the air(很明显，雪地里的大部分微塑料都来自于空气中)”，可知雪中的微塑料来自于空气中，故选B。 【48题详解】 词义猜测题。上文“However, if the plastics are small enough, they can find ways into our bodies and stay there for a long time, which can be bad for our health.( 然而，如果塑料足够小，它们可以找到方法进入我们的身体，并在那里呆很长一段时间，这可能对我们的健康有害。)”说明微塑料的坏处，“What's more”表示递进，说明划线句也讲述微塑料的坏处，划线词所在句句意为“早期研究已表明微塑料可能________肺癌风险”。结合备选项可知，“风险”应该与增加或减少等词搭配，因此推断此处说明微塑料可能会增加肺癌风险。故选C。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Finding these plastics in Arctic snow means that we may breathe them in(在北极的雪地里发现这些塑料意味着我们可以呼吸到它们)”，可知我们可能会在北极呼吸到微塑料，A选项表述正确；根据第四段的“earlier studies have shown that microplastics may contribute to lung cancer risk(早期的研究表明，微塑料可能会导致肺癌的风险)”，可知微塑料可能会增加肺癌风险，B选项表述正确；根据第五段的“Earlier research has found that they flow over long distances and into our oceans, hurting ecosystems along the way(早些时候的研究发现，它们经过长距离流入我们的海洋，沿途损害了生态系统 )”，可知微塑料也伤害了生态系统，D选项表述正确；根据上述内容可知微塑料已经危及到我们的身体健康、危害到生态系统，我们应该要重视，而不是不在意，C选项表述错误，故选C。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。根据“If people then eat these animals, it means that we’re eating the plastic as well(如果人们吃了这些动物，那就意味着我们也在吃塑料 )”可推断，作者通过强调塑料污染的严重性结束了这篇文章，故选D。 D Nowadays, it is more common for people to express their thoughts in an e-mail or text. In fact, more and more students use technology for written communication in their lives. Even so, research shows that teaching handwriting skills has its benefits. However, are the benefits worth spending valuable classroom time in teaching handwriting skills when students could be learning more about computer keyboarding? States across the country have good reasons to require students to learn computer keyboarding skills. For one, students are learning technology that will help them communicate faster with more people and in many different forms, such as e-mails, websites, blogs, and so on. Also the better a student’s computer keyboarding skills, the greater the chance that a student has to become a better writer. Computer tools such as the grammar and spell check make correcting quick and easy, although not 100％ accurate(准确的). With these and many other tools，students gain important computer skills. Furthermore, students no longer have to worry about their writing being graded poorly by teachers. All in all, computer keyboarding skills are a step in the right direction. Still, the advantages of computer keyboarding skills may not be enough to leave handwriting instruction in the dust. Marlena Hamilton, professor of neurology at University of Pennsylvania, did an experiment with her co-workers to study what happens in students’ brains when writing. They found that many of the areas of the brain light up. These are the same areas that are used to learn to read. They then wondered if the same would be true when students looked at letters on a keyboard. “What we found, “she states, “is that brains are much less involved when we just look at letters. When we actually use our hands to make things, the brain works much harder.” Schools across the nation are looking at the evidence and deciding what to do. William McIntyre, a reading coach at Sunshine Elementary School in Albany, New York, says, “What we have learned from the research is that learning handwriting benefits students educationally. What we also know is that students need to be taught keyboarding skills. Now, it is up to each school to make a decision. 51. From the first paragraph, we can know that _______. A. students don't want to learn handwriting skills any more. B. students don't like communicating with friends in person. C. students’ communicating by technology is more and more common. D. students spend more time in playing computer games than before. 52. What does the second paragraph mainly want to show? A. The roles of computer tools. B. The advantages of computer keyboarding skills. C. The importance of communication skills. D. The necessity of developing writing skills. 53. What's the author's attitude to students’ learning keyboarding skills? A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Uncaring. D. Supportive. 54. What can the result of Hamilton’s experiment show? A. Keyboarding skills are very useful. B. Handwriting is helpful for students to learn. C. Keyboarding makes our brain more active. D. Handwriting is more difficult than keyboarding. 55. What kind of decision does the author refer to in the last paragraph? A. Whether schools should offer computer classes. B. Whether schools should still teach handwriting. C. Whether students should learn keyboarding skills. D. Whether students should use the grammar and spell check. 【答案】51. C 52. B 53. D 54. B 55.

The little boy looked slightly younger than my youngest son. At one point in the game, the little guy looked over to my son, and said, “Wanna be my friend?” My husband leaned over to tell me what he heard. I spent the next 20 minutes taking pictures of my oldest son on the court, and my youngest son, with his new buddy, playing games two seats down from where I sat. It was a heartwarming scene and reminded me how easy it can be to make new friends. A few hours earlier, we went to a downtown cafe for an afternoon treat. There were no free tables for four, so we took a table for two, and crowded into the small space, each taking a bite of everyone else’s order. We were loud. We were very likely annoying the college students with open laptops, drinking coffee and working hard to finish midterm papers. One such young lady came over to our table and said, “I have more room at my table. I am happy to trade with you guys so you can spread out.” It was a simple act but it showed a selfless heart. We politely refused her offer, but her kindness stuck with me for hours after it happened. These are just two of everyday kindnesses I often take for granted. Though often neglected by us, these small acts of service, friendliness and human care are what it takes to make the world go round. 56. What was heart - warming according to Paragraph 1? (no more than 10 words) ________________________________________________________________________________ 57. What did the lady in the cafe offer? (no more than 10 words) ________________________________________________________________________________ 58. What does the underlined word “neglected” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? (1 word) ________________________________________________________________________________ 59. What does the author try to express through the passage? (no more than 10 words) ________________________________________________________________________________ 60. Which of the two stories touches you more? And give your reasons. (no more than 25 Words) ________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. Seeing my youngest son playing games with his new buddy. 57. To trade table with us. 58. Ignored. 59. She shouldn’t have taken everyday kindnesses for granted. 60. The first story touched me most. It tells me how easy it is to make friends and be friendly to others. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者通过两件身边发生的小事感悟到了每日都在发生着的善良的举动，认为这是世界运转所需要的。 【56题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I spent the next 20 minutes taking pictures of my oldest son on the court, and my youngest son, with his new buddy, playing games two seats down from where I sat. It was a heartwarming scene (接下来的20分钟里，我在球场上给大儿子拍照，小儿子和他的新伙伴在离我坐的地方两个座位的地方玩游戏。这是一个温暖人心的场景)”可知，温暖人心的场景是作者看见小儿子和她的新伙伴一起玩耍，故填Seeing my youngest son playing games with his new buddy. 【57题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“One such young lady came over to our table and said, “I have more room at my table. I am happy to trade with you guys so you can spread out.” (一位这样的年轻女士走到我们的桌子前说：“我的桌子上空间多。我很乐意和你们交换，这样你们就可以分散开坐”)”可知年轻女士主动要求交换的是桌子，故填To trade table with us. 【58题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第四段划线词上文“These are just two of everyday kindnesses I often take for granted (这只是我日常认为理所当然的两种善意)”可知作者认为这些善举被我们认为理所当然，从而忽视它们的存在，所以划线词的含义应为“忽视”，故填Ignored. 【59题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“It was a heartwarming scene and reminded me how easy it can be to make new friends. (这是一个温暖人心的场景，提醒我结交新朋友是多么容易)”、第三段“We politely refused her offer, but her kindness stuck with me for hours after it happened.(我们礼貌地拒绝了她的提议，但事情发生后，她的善意一直伴随着我好几个小时)”以及最后一段“These are just two of everyday kindnesses I often take for granted (这只是我日常认为理所当然的两种善意)”可推理出，作者认为自己不应该把这些善意认为理所当然，故填She shouldn’t have taken everyday kindnesses for granted. 【60题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“At one point in the game, the little guy looked over to my son, and said, “Wanna be my friend?” (在比赛的过程中，小家伙看着我儿子说：“想成为我的朋友吗？”)”以及“my youngest son, with his new buddy, playing games two seats down from where I sat. It was a heartwarming scene (我的小儿子和他的新伙伴在离我坐的地方两个座位的地方玩游戏。这是一个温暖人心的场景)”可知，小孩子之间成为朋友很容易，而且在大人忙碌的时候，他们通过对彼此友好度过了美好的时光，因此文章中第一个故事最能打动我，我的感受是：交朋友并对他人友好是很容易的，故填The first story touched me most. It tells me how easy it is to make friends and be friendly to others. 第二节：写作(满分25分) 61. 假如你是李华，你的英国笔友Andrew不久前去美国留学，他给你写信说很不适应那里的生活。请你根据以下提示用英语给他写一封回信，鼓励他勇敢面对。 1. 尊重当地的风俗习惯； 2. 多与美国学生交流； 3. 积极参加户外活动； 4. 注意与人交往时的礼仪。 注意：1.词数100左右，开头和结尾已经给出，不计入总词数; 2.可根据内容要点适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear Andrew, How nice to hear from you again! _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Dear Andrew, How nice to hear from you again!
