I also want to use my good English to introduce our great places to the people who speak English. I hope that they can love our country like us. I know, Rome was not built in a day.

Researchers have predictions that show virtual reality will make a great difference to our society. In the same way that the smartphone changed our lives, virtual reality may be set to do the same. Virtual reality changes how we view technology. Until now technology has always been something that we have viewed but never been truly immersed in (沉浸其中). Virtual reality has the power to change that. There will come a time when we sit on a VR chair or step inside a VR room, put on a VR device (设备), and enter a totally different world. The technology is largely available already, so with further advances taking place we could be about to enter entirely different worlds. Today the obvious application of virtual reality is gaming but there are many more applications as well. In business, virtual reality could be used to improve communications. Many companies have to pay a lot for sending their team to different places. As worldwide business continues, it is increasingly important for teams in different areas of the world to work together. Although the video meeting solutions have been a success, they are just not as good as the real thing. Virtual reality can offer an experience as good as the real thing without any of the expense of travel. While the virtual reality technology is still being developed we are not far away from a truly immersive experience. Within the next ten years, a solution will be in place, which will be so believable that people will be unable to tell the difference between it and reality. In time the cost will reduce as well, making it possible to have a VR experience in every home and business. 8. Why is the smartphone mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To show the popularity of virtual reality. B. To praise the development of virtual reality. C. To state people’s anxieties in terms of virtual reality. D. To explain the influence of virtual reality on people’s lives. 9. In which way is virtual reality technology different from the traditional technology? A. It reduces the need for the communication. B. It can provide an immersive experience. C. It is applied to gaming and business. D. It is more convenient to operate. 10. What does the underlined word “expense” mean in the third paragraph? A. Tiredness. B. Schedule. C. Stress. D. Cost. 11. What can we expect of the virtual reality technology? A. It will help reduce technology costs B. It will take people away from reality. C. It will be widely used in people’s lives. D. It will take the place of other technologies. D John Von Neumann was the oldest of 3 children of a banker, and his speed of learning new ideas and of solving problems stood out early. At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he may lead a poor life being a mathematician, and so Von Neumann agreed to study chemistry as well. In 1926, at 23, he received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph.D. in mathematics. From then on, mathematics provided well enough for him, and he never had to turn to chemistry. In 1930, Von Neumann visited Princeton University for a year and then became a professor there. His first book was published in 1932. In 1933, the Institute for Advanced Study was formed, and he became one of the 6 full-time people in the School of Mathematics (Einstein was one of the others). World War II hugely changed Von Neumann’s areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure (纯粹的) mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematics theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several fundamental contributions. After the war, Von Neumann continued his work with computers, and was generally very active in government service. He received many awards, was president of the American Mathematical Society and was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. He died in 1957 of cancer. Von Neumann made several great contributions and any one of them would have been enough to earn him a firm place in history. He will be remembered as one of the greatest minds of the 20th century. Von Neumann really was a legend (传奇) in his own time, and there are a number of stories about him. His driving ability is a part of this legend. He reported one accident this way: “I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path.” 12. According to the text Von Neumann’s father believed that ________. A. a mathematician couldn’t earn a lot of money B. a mathematician needed a good memory C. Von Neumann had the ability to learn two subjects at the same time D. Von Neumann had a gift for solving problems at a high speed 13. Von Neumann published his first book at the age of ________. A. 23 B. 26 C. 29 D. 32 14. How did World War II affect John Von Neumann? A. He realized the importance of engineering. B. He began to research how to put mathematics into practice. C. He left college and served at the government department. D. He lost interest in chemistry. 15. From the last paragraph, we can infer John Von Neumann was _______. A. calm B. brave C. intelligent D. humorous 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 Celebrate Earth Day Are you looking for ways to celebrate Earth Day on April 22?

Researchers have predictions that show virtual reality will make a great difference to our society. In the same way that the smartphone changed our lives, virtual reality may be set to do the same. Virtual reality changes how we view technology. Until now technology has always been something that we have viewed but never been truly immersed in (沉浸其中). Virtual reality has the power to change that. There will come a time when we sit on a VR chair or step inside a VR room, put on a VR device (设备), and enter a totally different world. The technology is largely available already, so with further advances taking place we could be about to enter entirely different worlds. Today the obvious application of virtual reality is gaming but there are many more applications as well. In business, virtual reality could be used to improve communications. Many companies have to pay a lot for sending their team to different places. As worldwide business continues, it is increasingly important for teams in different areas of the world to work together. Although the video meeting solutions have been a success, they are just not as good as the real thing. Virtual reality can offer an experience as good as the real thing without any of the expense of travel. While the virtual reality technology is still being developed we are not far away from a truly immersive experience. Within the next ten years, a solution will be in place, which will be so believable that people will be unable to tell the difference between it and reality. In time the cost will reduce as well, making it possible to have a VR experience in every home and business. 8. Why is the smartphone mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To show the popularity of virtual reality. B. To praise the development of virtual reality. C. To state people’s anxieties in terms of virtual reality. D. To explain the influence of virtual reality on people’s lives. 9. In which way is virtual reality technology different from the traditional technology? A. It reduces the need for the communication. B. It can provide an immersive experience. C. It is applied to gaming and business. D. It is more convenient to operate. 10. What does the underlined word “expense” mean in the third paragraph? A. Tiredness. B. Schedule. C. Stress. D. Cost. 11. What can we expect of the virtual reality technology? A. It will help reduce technology costs B. It will take people away from reality. C. It will be widely used in people’s lives. D. It will take the place of other technologies. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述了虚拟现实技术的现状及其对未来社会可能产生的影响，与过去的技术以及当前的应用进行对比，并展望其未来的发展及应用。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Researchers have predictions that show virtual reality will make a great difference to our society. In the same way that the smartphone changed our lives, virtual reality may be set to do the same. (研究人员预测虚拟现实将对我们社会带来巨大变化。正如智能手机改变了我们的生活，虚拟现实可能将同样做到这一点)”可以推知，此处提到智能手机是为了说明虚拟现实对人类生活的影响。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Until now technology has always been something that we have viewed but never been truly immersed in. Virtual reality has the power to change that. (直到现在，技术一直是我们所看到的东西，但从未真正沉浸其中。虚拟现实有力量改变这一点)”可以推知，虚拟现实技术不同于传统技术的地方在于它可以提供沉浸式体验。故选B。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第三段“Virtual reality can offer an experience as good as the real thing (虚拟现实可以提供与真实事物一样好的体验)”可知，虚拟现实没有任何旅行的费用。所以“expense”结合上下文可知指的是旅行中的开销，所以“expense”是“费用、成本”的意思。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“In time the cost will reduce as well, making it possible to have a VR experience in every home and business. (随着时间的推移，成本也将降低，使每个家庭和企业都可以获得VR体验)可以推知，虚拟现实技术将在未来被广泛应用于人们的生活。故选C。 D John Von Neumann was the oldest of 3 children of a banker, and his speed of learning new ideas and of solving problems stood out early. At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he may lead a poor life being a mathematician, and so Von Neumann agreed to study chemistry as well. In 1926, at 23, he received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph.D. in mathematics. From then on, mathematics provided well enough for him, and he never had to turn to chemistry. In 1930, Von Neumann visited Princeton University for a year and then became a professor there. His first book was published in 1932. In 1933, the Institute for Advanced Study was formed, and he became one of the 6 full-time people in the School of Mathematics (Einstein was one of the others). World War II hugely changed Von Neumann’s areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure (纯粹的) mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematics theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several fundamental contributions. After the war, Von Neumann continued his work with computers, and was generally very active in government service. He received many awards, was president of the American Mathematical Society and was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. He died in 1957 of cancer. Von Neumann made several great contributions and any one of them would have been enough to earn him a firm place in history. He will be remembered as one of the greatest minds of the 20th century. Von Neumann really was a legend (传奇) in his own time, and there are a number of stories about him. His driving ability is a part of this legend. He reported one accident this way: “I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path.” 12. According to the text Von Neumann’s father believed that ________. A. a mathematician couldn’t earn a lot of money B. a mathematician needed a good memory C. Von Neumann had the ability to learn two subjects at the same time D. Von Neumann had a gift for solving problems at a high speed 13. Von Neumann published his first book at the age of ________. A. 23 B. 26 C. 29 D. 32 14. How did World War II affect John Von Neumann? A. He realized the importance of engineering. B. He began to research how to put mathematics into practice. C. He left college and served at the government department. D. He lost interest in chemistry. 15. From the last paragraph, we can infer John Von Neumann was _______. A. calm B. brave C. intelligent D. humorous 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了数学家John von Neumann (约翰·冯·诺依曼)的生平事迹。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he might lead a poor life being a mathematician, so von Neumann agreed to study chemistry as well. (17岁时，他的父亲试图说服他不要成为一名数学家，因为他当数学家可能会过着贫穷的生活，所以冯·诺依曼也同意学习化学)”可知，冯·诺依曼的父亲认为数学家的生活可能会比较清贫，即数学家赚不了很多钱。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“In 1926, at 23, he received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph.D. in mathematics. (1926年，23岁的他获得了化学工程学位和数学博士学位)”和第二段中的“His first book was published in 1932. (他的第一本书于1932年出版)”可知，他29岁时出版了自己的第一本书。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“World WarⅡ hugely changed von Neumann’s areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematical theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several fu (第二次世界大战极大地改变了冯·诺依曼的兴趣领域。直到1940年，他一直是一位伟大的纯粹数学家。在战争期间和战后，他成为将数学理论付诸实践的最好的数学家之一)”可知，二战使约翰·冯·诺依曼把数学理论应用到实践中。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“He reported one accident this way: “I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path.””（他这样报道了一起事故：“我当时正沿着公路行驶。右边的树以每小时60英里的速度有序地从我身边经过。突然其中一棵树挡住了我的去路。”）可知，John Von Neumann很幽默。故选D项。 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 Celebrate Earth Day Are you looking for ways to celebrate Earth Day on April 22?

Braille ____39____ (lose) his eyesight at the age of three as a result _____40_____ an injury. When he was ten, he went to a school for the blind in Paris. In 1821, a soldier visited the school and showed the students a system for passing messages at night during times of battle. His system used paper with small, raised dots ___41___ could be felt with the fingers. Each letter of the alphabet ___42___( represent) by a different pattern which consisted of twelve dots. While the students found the soldier’s idea ____43____(interest), the system was too difficult to be of practical use. However, young Louis Braille took the idea and worked on it. At the age of fifteen, he created a system ---‘Braille’. The blind can ___44___ (easy) recognize Braille with the fingers. Today, ___45___ is the most common system for them to read and write. 【答案】36. written 37. However 38. introducing 39. lost 40. of 41. that##which 42. was represented 43. interesting 44. easily 45. it 【解析】 【分析】本文是记叙文。讲述了Louis Braille发明盲文的原因、过程和盲文的重要作用。 【36题详解】 考查过去分词。句意：通常，当我们谈到阅读时，我们想到的是用眼睛看到纸上用墨水写的字母。句中letters和动词write是被动关系，指字母被写在纸上，用过去分词作定语。故填written。 【37题详解】 考查副词。句意：通常，当我们谈到阅读时，我们想到的是用眼睛看到纸上用墨水写的字母。然而，这并不总是正确的。前后句是转折关系，和下句用逗号隔开，故填However。 【38题详解】 考查现在分词。句意：向盲人介绍阅读的人是Louis Braille。句中已有动词was，此处用非谓语动词。句中The man和动词introduce是主动关系，用现在分词作定语。故填introducing。 【39题详解】 考查动词时态。根据时间状语at the age of three可知是讲述Braille三岁时发生的事，用一般过去时。故填过去式lost。 【40题详解】 考查固定短语。句意：Braille在三岁时由于受伤而失去了视力。“因为，由于”是固定短语as a result of，故填of。 【41题详解】 考查定语从句。句中包含定语从句___6___ could be felt with the fingers，先行词是raised dots指物，在定语从句中做主语，用关系代词that/ which引导定语从句。故填that/ which。 【42题详解】 考查时态语态。句意：字母表中的每个字母都由12个点组成的不同图案表示。根据时间In 1821可知用过去时，又Each letter和动词represent是被动关系，在句中作谓语，故填一般过去时的被动形式was represented。 【43题详解】 考查形容词。此处指学生们发现这个士兵的想法很有趣，用形容词作宾补。修饰指物的名词idea用-ing结尾的形容词，故填interesting。 【44题详解】 考查副词。此处修饰动词recognize用副词，指“容易识别”。故填easily。 【45题详解】 考查代词。句意：现在，对他们来说，读和写是最常见的系统。句中真正的主语是不定式to read and write，用it做形式主语。故填It。 【点睛】分析定语从句关键抓住两点：第一、找准先行词；第二、看先行词在定语从句中所作的成分。先行词往往为名词或代词，如小题6中先行词为raised dots指物，在定语从句中做主语，用关系代词that/ which引导定语从句。 第四部分 写作（满分40分） 第一节 应用文（15分） 46. 你校正在组织英语作文比赛，请你以“A role model to learn from”为题，写一篇短文参赛，内容包括： 1. 介绍你的榜样的品质及其成就； 2. 说明你的榜样对你的影响。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为 80个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 A role model to learn from ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】A role model to learn from A role model for me to learn from is Tu Youyou, a researcher in medicine, who has a positive influence on my growth.

Mr. Brown had asked the class to do presentations. Today was Mary’s turn. However, her hands shook so badly that she couldn’t read her notes. Her voice became softer to the point of silence. Mr. Brown kindly ended Mary’s part of the presentation, even though she did clearly not finished. He also asked Mary to stay after class for a moment. “Mary. I know you’ re shy, but you worked hard on this project. I’d hate to see you give up on yourself.” Then Mr. Brown hesitated, before saying. “If I give you another chance until tomorrow, do you think you can find your courage?” Mary nodded, grateful for the chance. She went as quickly as she could to her next class. She kept her head down and hoped the school day would end soon. When she reached home that afternoon, she could see an inviting light coming from the kitchen windows. Mom was baking. Mom studied Mary’s face as she came into the kitchen. “What’s wrong, baby?” Tears shone in Mary’s brown eyes. She told Mom the whole story. Mom was silent for a moment. her hands still busy with the cake. “Why is it that you can talk to me about everything, but you can’t talk to your class?” Mom asked and then said, “Let me show you something.” Mary followed Mom to her bedroom. There Mom showed her a book filled with newspaper clippings and pictures. In it there was a red ribbon (丝带) that said “First Place” and a picture of herself when she was very young, standing with her parents. “I won it for public speaking. When I started on the speech team I was quiet as a mouse, but I ended the year as the winner. It wasn’t easy at first — I wasn’t sure of myself at all. I worked hard, and mostly I faced my fears. You just need to find your courage.” 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右; 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Hearing Mom’s words.

She imagined the scene where Mom had tried her best to overcome her fears and picked up the courage to deliver a fantastic speech to the audience. Realizing Mary’s anxiety, Mom reassured her and reached out her hand to tie the red ribbon onto Mary’s wrist with a smile. Restored and determined, Mary gritted (咬紧牙关) her teeth to find her courage. She stood in front of a mirror and practiced. “You can do it,” she told herself when drowsiness (昏昏欲睡) fell upon her.

But courage found its way back the moment she caught sight of the red ribbon on her wrist. Comforted and inspired, she took a deep breath, summoned up her courage, and said “Dear fellow students.” Mary cast a glance at Mr. Brown who was standing in the corner and smiling at her. A self-reassuring smile spread across Mary’s face. She knew for sure that she had now found her courage. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了玛丽初次向同学作报告时紧张胆怯，表达失败，老师鼓励再给她一次机会。回家后，妈妈了解了情况，用自己上学时代的成功演讲经历鼓励她。最终玛丽成功完成报告的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“听了妈妈的话，玛丽凝视着那条珍贵的红丝带。”可知，第一段可描妈妈的成功激励着玛丽下定决心，发奋练习。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天，玛丽又走到教室前面做报告。”可知，第二段可描写玛丽找回了勇气，成功做报告。 2.续写线索：自信——下定决心——发奋练习——找回勇气——表达成功——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①克服：overcome/get over ②练习：practice/exercise ③看见：catch sight of/see 情绪类 ①焦虑：anxiety/worry ②受到鼓舞的：inspired/encouraged 【点睛】 [高分句型1] She imagined the scene where Mom had tried her best to overcome her fears and picked up the courage to deliver a fantastic speech to the audience.
