She’d watch me coming down her street, and by the time I’d biked up to her doorstep, there’d be a cold drink waiting. I’d sit and drink while she talked. Mrs. Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband, “Mr. Stanley and I went shopping this morning.” she’d say. The first time she said that, soda(汽水) went up my nose. I told my father how Mrs. Stanley talked as if Mr. Stanley were still alive. Dad said she was probably lonely, and that I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile, and maybe she’d work it out of her system. So that’s what I did, and it turned out Dad was right. After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery(墓地). I finally quit delivering newspapers and didn’t see Mrs. Stanley for several years. Then we crossed paths at a church fund-raiser(募捐活动). She was spooning mashed potatoes and looking happy. Four years before, she’d had to offer her paperboy a drink to have someone to talk with. Now she had friends. Her husband was gone, but life went on. I live in the city now, and my paperboy is a lady named Edna with three kids. She asks me how I’m doing. When I don’t say “fine”, she sticks around to hear my problems. She’s lived in the city most of her life, but she knows about community. Community isn’t so much a place as it is a state of mind. You find it whenever people ask how you’re doing because they care, and not because they’re getting paid to do so. Sometimes it’s good to just smile, nod your head and listen. 4. Why did soda go up the author’s nose one time? A. He was talking fast. B. He was shocked. C. He was in a hurry. D. He was absent-minded. 5. Why did the author sit and listen to Mrs. Stanley according to Paragraph 3? A. He enjoyed the drink. B. He wanted to be helpful. C. He took the chance to rest. D. He tried to please his dad. 6. Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “work it out of her system”? A. recover from her sadness B. move out of the neighborhood C. turn to her old friends D. speak out about her past 7. What does the author think people in a community should do? A. Open up to others. B. Depend on each other. C. Pay for other’s help D. Care about one another. C The iPhone has become a usability nightmare (噩梦). A new one comes with 38 preinstalled (预装好) apps, of which you can delete 27. Once you’ve downloaded your favorite apps, you’re now sitting at 46 or more. Like many companies, Apple has decided that there’s no need to build an easy-to-use product when it can use AI. If you want to find something in their garbage dump (垃圾堆) of apps and choices, you must use Spotlight, Apple’s Al-powered search engine that can find almost everything there. This “creation” of AI is not the creation of something new but simply companies selling you back basic usability after decades of messy design choices. And these tech companies are charging us more to fix their mistakes and labeling an AI as a solution. Alexa and Siri have become replacements for intentional computing. They give orders into voice interfaces (接口) easily but sacrifice “what we can do” to “what Amazon or Apple allows us to do”. We have been trained to keep apps and files, while tech companies have failed to provide any easy way to organize them. They have decided that disorganized mess is fine as long as they can provide an automated search product to sift (筛选) through the mess, something more tech, even if tech created the problem in the first place. AI-based user interfaces (界面) rob the user of choice and enable tech companies to control their decision-making. When one searches for something in Siri or Alexa, Apple and Amazon control the results. Google already provides vastly different search results based on your location, and has redesigned search itself multiple times to trick users into clicking links that benefit Google in some way. Depressingly, our future is becoming one where we must choose between asking an artificial intelligence for help, or fighting through an ever-increasing amount of poorly designed menus in the hope we might be able to help ourselves. We, as consumers, should demand more from the companies that have turned our digital lives into trillion-dollar enterprises. 8. Why does the author mention Apple’s problem? A. As the main topic. B. As the model. C. As an example. D. As a sharp comparison. 9. What can we know about Alexa and Siri? A. They are both Apple’s search products. B. They help consumers make their own choices. C. They have bettered the user experience greatly. D. They work to the benefits of tech companies behind. 10. What’s the author’s attitude towards the tech companies’ AI-solution? A. Neutral. B. Disapproving. C. Supportive. D. Unconcerned. 11. The author writes this article to ask readers to_________. A. abandon using AI B. abandon using products from tech companies C. recognize the nature of AI-based solution D. recognize the nature of poorly designed apps D Nearly 10 million people worldwide live with Parkinson’s disease. While Parkinson’s is incurable, some of its worst symptoms can be relieved and controlled using medications. A major problem of getting effective treatment at the right time is identifying the disease soon enough, before patients experience the symptoms brought on by irreversible (不可逆转的) neuron loss. But scientists might have just the thing to change the situation. And it involves a nose. In a study published in the journal ACS Omega, researchers from Zhejiang University created an “e-nose”, a portable device that can detect body smells specific to Parkinson’s patients. It may come as a surprise to learn Parkinson’s patients have their own smells. But after a retired nurse in Scotland made headlines in 2015 for a heightened sense of smell that led to her own husband’s Parkinson’s diagnosis (诊断), scientists have been trying hard to create a device that could smell the disease before physical symptoms start to show. Over the years, scientists have found people with Parkinson’s tend to produce more sebum than the average person. This sebum mixes with other overproduced substances to produce certain, unique smells. To track down these smells, the Zhejiang University researchers swabbed (用拭子擦拭) the upper backs of 31 Parkinson’s patients and 32 healthy volunteers. Using machine-learning software, they were able to identify three smell compounds that healthy volunteers lacked. The researchers then tested the e-nose on sebum taken from 12 Parkinson’s patients and 12 healthy people. The device was found to be about 71 percent accurate in distinguishing healthy sebum from Parkinson’s sebum. These are encouraging findings, but before the e-nose is ready for clinical use, the team needs to test it on many more people to improve the accuracy of the models. They will also need to test whether factors like race affect the e-nose’s performance in any way. But for now, as the number of people living with Parkinson’s in the U.S. is expected to rise to 1.2 million by 2030, a nose might be the best option to detect this disease. 12. What makes it difficult for Parkinson’s patients to get effective treatment? A. It’s not a curable disease medically. B. Its early signs are not easy to notice. C. It involves irreversible neuron loss. D. Its medications are in short supply. 13. What did the Scottish nurse find? A. Her husband had a heightened sense of smell. B. Her husband’s body gave off a strange smell. C. A smell could relieve her husband’s Parkinson’s symptoms. D. A smell caused her husband to suffer from a disease. 14. What will the researchers do concerning their invention? A. Refer to more academic articles. B. Create more lab models. C. Conduct a broader test. D. Expand its market outside the U. S. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. People living with Parkinson’s are on the rise. B. This e-nose can smell Parkinson’s. C. Parkinson’s patients produce more sebum. D. Researchers have found treatment for Parkinson’s. 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。 Lots of people find it hard to get up in the morning and put the blame on the alarm clock.

In groups, we were to create a newspaper around the culture we were studying. On a piece of paper, we wrote the names of three friends we wanted in our group. After collecting all the requests, Mrs. Bartlett informed us that she would take into consideration the names we chose and would let us know the results the next day. I had no doubt I would get the group of my choice. There were only a handful of sociably decent people in the class, and Missy was one of them. I knew we had chosen each other. The next day, I anxiously awaited the class. After the bell rang, Missy and I stopped talking as Mrs. Bartlett called for our attention. She started to call out names. When she reached group three, Missy’s name was called. So I’m in group three, I thought. The second, third and fourth members of the group were called. My name was not included. There had to be some mistake! Then I heard it. The last group: “Mauro, Juliette, Rachel, Karina.” I could feel the tears well in my eyes. How could I face being in that group the boy who barely spoke English, the one girl who was always covered by skirts that went down to her ankles, and the other girl who wore weird clothes. Oh, how badly I wanted to be with my friends. After class, I fought back tears as I walked up to Mrs. Bartlett’s office. She looked at me and knew what I was there for. I was determined to convince her I should be in the “good” group. “Why. . . ?” I started. 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。 Mrs.Bartlett sat me down and began to talk. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I bravely walked to the last group. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 内江市第一中学高2027届高一(下)英语半期考试 第一部分 听力(共20小题;每小题1.5分, 满分30分) 第一节 (共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题。从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

B. Depend on each other. C. Pay for other’s help D. Care about one another. 【答案】4. B 5. B 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述的是作者曾经是一个报童，他听从父亲的建议，关心一位丧偶的顾客Mrs. Stanley，每次去Mrs. Stanley家送报都会停留一会儿倾听她的故事。而作者多年后又被自家的报童关心着。由此作者感悟到社区邻里之间应多互相关心。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中Mrs. Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband, “Mr. Stanley and I went shopping this morning,” she’d say. The first time she said that, soda (汽水) went up my nose.可推测，作者第一次听到Mrs. Stanley一直谈死去的丈夫时，汽水喝呛了，可以推断出作者当时极为震惊的。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中Dad said she was probably lonely, and that I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile可知，爸爸说她很孤独，作者应该倾听她说话，并点头微笑，因此推断作者倾听Mrs. Stanley说话是为了消除她的孤独，对她有帮助。故选B。 【6题详解】 短语猜测题。根据第三段最后一句After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery(墓地).可知，Mrs. Stanley看来已从失去丈夫的悲痛中走了出来，说明画线部分描述的是：她可能“消除自己的悲伤情绪，从悲伤中走出来了”。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段You find it whenever people ask how you’re doing because they care,以及作者的经历，作者想要表明的观点是社区邻里间应该互相关心。故选D。 C The iPhone has become a usability nightmare (噩梦). A new one comes with 38 preinstalled (预装好) apps, of which you can delete 27. Once you’ve downloaded your favorite apps, you’re now sitting at 46 or more. Like many companies, Apple has decided that there’s no need to build an easy-to-use product when it can use AI. If you want to find something in their garbage dump (垃圾堆) of apps and choices, you must use Spotlight, Apple’s Al-powered search engine that can find almost everything there. This “creation” of AI is not the creation of something new but simply companies selling you back basic usability after decades of messy design choices. And these tech companies are charging us more to fix their mistakes and labeling an AI as a solution. Alexa and Siri have become replacements for intentional computing. They give orders into voice interfaces (接口) easily but sacrifice “what we can do” to “what Amazon or Apple allows us to do”. We have been trained to keep apps and files, while tech companies have failed to provide any easy way to organize them. They have decided that disorganized mess is fine as long as they can provide an automated search product to sift (筛选) through the mess, something more tech, even if tech created the problem in the first place. AI-based user interfaces (界面) rob the user of choice and enable tech companies to control their decision-making. When one searches for something in Siri or Alexa, Apple and Amazon control the results. Google already provides vastly different search results based on your location, and has redesigned search itself multiple times to trick users into clicking links that benefit Google in some way. Depressingly, our future is becoming one where we must choose between asking an artificial intelligence for help, or fighting through an ever-increasing amount of poorly designed menus in the hope we might be able to help ourselves. We, as consumers, should demand more from the companies that have turned our digital lives into trillion-dollar enterprises. 8. Why does the author mention Apple’s problem? A. As the main topic. B. As the model. C. As an example. D. As a sharp comparison. 9. What can we know about Alexa and Siri? A. They are both Apple’s search products. B. They help consumers make their own choices. C. They have bettered the user experience greatly. D. They work to the benefits of tech companies behind. 10. What’s the author’s attitude towards the tech companies’ AI-solution? A. Neutral. B. Disapproving. C. Supportive. D. Unconcerned. 11. The author writes this article to ask readers to_________. A. abandon using AI B. abandon using products from tech companies C. recognize the nature of AI-based solution D. recognize the nature of poorly designed apps 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要论述了人工智能产品存在问题，呼吁消费者认清其本质。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The iPhone has become a usability nightmare (噩梦). A new one comes with 38 preinstalled (预装好) apps, of which you can delete 27. Once you’ve downloaded your favorite apps, you’re now sitting at 46 or more.(iPhone已经成为可用性的噩梦。新款 iPhone预装了38个应用程序，你可以删除其中27个。一旦你下载了你最喜欢的应用程序，你现在就有46个或更多)”以及后文对苹果公司使用人工智能来解决问题的描述可知，作者提到苹果公司的问题是作为一个例子来引出下文对人工智能解决方案的讨论。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“They give orders into voice interfaces (接口) easily but sacrifice “what we can do” to “what Amazon or Apple allows us to do”.(它们可以轻松地向语音接口下达指令，但却牺牲了 “我们能够做的事情”，只能做亚马逊或苹果允许我们做的事)”以及第五段“Google already provides vastly different search results based on your location, and has redesigned search itself multiple times to trick users into clicking links that benefit Google in some way.(谷歌已经会根据你的位置提供截然不同的搜索结果，并且已经多次重新设计搜索功能，以诱使用户点击那些在某些方面对谷歌有利的链接)”可知，Alexa和Siri让用户只能做亚马逊或苹果允许做的事，由此可推知，它们是为背后的科技公司谋利的。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“This ‘creation’ of AI is not the creation of something new but simply companies selling you back basic usability after decades of messy design choices. And these tech companies are charging us more to fix their mistakes and labeling an AI as a solution.(人工智能的这种“创造”并不是创造新事物，而只是公司在经过几十年的混乱设计选择后，将基本可用性卖回给你。而这些科技公司却向我们收取更多的费用来纠正他们的错误，并将人工智能贴上解决方案的标签)”以及后文对科技公司人工智能解决方案的批评可知，作者认为科技公司的人工智能解决方案是在为自己谋利，且存在诸多问题，所以作者对科技公司的人工智能解决方案持不赞成的态度。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Depressingly, our future is becoming one where we must choose between asking an artificial intelligence for help, or fighting through an ever-increasing amount of poorly designed menus in the hope we might be able to help ourselves. We, as consumers, should demand more from the companies that have turned our digital lives into trillion-dollar enterprises.(令人沮丧的是，我们的未来正变成一个我们必须选择是向人工智能寻求帮助，还是在越来越多的设计糟糕的菜单中挣扎，希望我们能够帮助自己。作为消费者，我们应该向那些将我们的数字生活变成价值数万亿美元的企业的公司提出更多要求)”可知，作者写这篇文章是为了要求读者认识到基于人工智能的解决方案的本质。故选C。 D Nearly 10 million people worldwide live with Parkinson’s disease. While Parkinson’s is incurable, some of its worst symptoms can be relieved and controlled using medications. A major problem of getting effective treatment at the right time is identifying the disease soon enough, before patients experience the symptoms brought on by irreversible (不可逆转的) neuron loss. But scientists might have just the thing to change the situation. And it involves a nose. In a study published in the journal ACS Omega, researchers from Zhejiang University created an “e-nose”, a portable device that can detect body smells specific to Parkinson’s patients. It may come as a surprise to learn Parkinson’s patients have their own smells. But after a retired nurse in Scotland made headlines in 2015 for a heightened sense of smell that led to her own husband’s Parkinson’s diagnosis (诊断), scientists have been trying hard to create a device that could smell the disease before physical symptoms start to show. Over the years, scientists have found people with Parkinson’s tend to produce more sebum than the average person. This sebum mixes with other overproduced substances to produce certain, unique smells. To track down these smells, the Zhejiang University researchers swabbed (用拭子擦拭) the upper backs of 31 Parkinson’s patients and 32 healthy volunteers. Using machine-learning software, they were able to identify three smell compounds that healthy volunteers lacked. The researchers then tested the e-nose on sebum taken from 12 Parkinson’s patients and 12 healthy people. The device was found to be about 71 percent accurate in distinguishing healthy sebum from Parkinson’s sebum. These are encouraging findings, but before the e-nose is ready for clinical use, the team needs to test it on many more people to improve the accuracy of the models. They will also need to test whether factors like race affect the e-nose’s performance in any way. But for now, as the number of people living with Parkinson’s in the U.S. is expected to rise to 1.2 million by 2030, a nose might be the best option to detect this disease. 12. What makes it difficult for Parkinson’s patients to get effective treatment? A. It’s not a curable disease medically. B. Its early signs are not easy to notice. C. It involves irreversible neuron loss. D. Its medications are in short supply. 13. What did the Scottish nurse find? A. Her husband had a heightened sense of smell. B. Her husband’s body gave off a strange smell. C. A smell could relieve her husband’s Parkinson’s symptoms. D. A smell caused her husband to suffer from a disease. 14. What will the researchers do concerning their invention? A. Refer to more academic articles. B. Create more lab models. C. Conduct a broader test. D. Expand its market outside the U. S. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. People living with Parkinson’s are on the rise. B. This e-nose can smell Parkinson’s. C. Parkinson’s patients produce more sebum. D. Researchers have found treatment for Parkinson’s. 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了电子鼻可检测帕金森病的气味。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段中“A major problem of getting effective treatment at the right time is identifying the disease soon enough, before patients experience the symptoms brought on by irreversible (不可逆转的) neuron loss. (在适当的时候获得有效治疗的一个主要问题是尽早确诊疾病，在患者出现不可逆转的神经元损失所带来的症状之前。)”可知，帕金森病的早期症状不容易被注意到，这使得患者很难得到有效治疗。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段中“But after a retired nurse in Scotland made headlines in 2015 for a heightened sense of smell that led to her own husband’s Parkinson’s diagnosis (诊断), scientists have been trying hard to create a device that could smell the disease before physical symptoms start to show. (但在2015年，苏格兰一位退休护士因其敏锐的嗅觉帮助诊断出丈夫患有帕金森病而登上新闻头条之后，科学家们就一直在努力研发一种设备，能够在身体症状出现之前“嗅”出这种疾病。)”可知，这位苏格兰护士发现她丈夫身上散发出一种奇怪的气味。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。由文章最后一段中“These are encouraging findings, but before the e-nose is ready for clinical use, the team needs to test it on many more people to improve the accuracy of the models. (这些发现是令人鼓舞的，但在电子鼻准备好用于临床之前，研究小组需要在更多的人身上进行测试，以提高模型的准确性。)”可知，研究人员将对他们的发明进行更广泛的测试。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中“In a study published in the journal ACS Omega, researchers from Zhejiang University created an “e-nose”, a portable device that can detect body smells specific to Parkinson’s patients. (在ACS Omega杂志上发表的一项研究中，浙江大学的研究人员发明了一种“电子鼻”，这是一种便携式设备，可以检测到帕金森病患者特有的体味。)”可知，本文主要介绍了一种能够检测到帕金森病患者特有体味的电子鼻。因此，B项“This e-nose can smell Parkinson’s. (这个电子鼻能闻出帕金森病)”适合作本文标题。故选B。 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。 Lots of people find it hard to get up in the morning and put the blame on the alarm clock.

Do you want to get up in time to have breakfast with your family, get in some exercise or just be better prepared for your day? Once you are clear about your reason, tell your family or roommates about the change you want to make.(为了做出改变，你需要决定为什么它是重要的。你想准时起床和家人一起吃早餐，做些运动或者只是为你的一天做更好的准备吗？一旦你清楚了你的理由，告诉你的家人或室友你想要做的改变。)”可知，本段主要讲要找到自己的动机，B项“Find the right motivation.(找到正确的动机。)”符合，能概括本段内容，故选B。 【18题详解】 下文“That’s a quarter-hour more you could be sleeping if you bought a coffee maker with a timer.(如果你买一个带定时器的咖啡机，你可以多睡一刻钟。)”指出，作者建议买一个带定时器的咖啡机，这样就能节约15分钟喝咖啡的时间，让你多睡15分钟，由此可知，空处应该引起下文，指出你在咖啡馆排队会浪费15分钟时间，所以作者建议买一个带定时器的咖啡机，G项“Reconsider the 15 minutes you spend in line at the cafe to get coffee.(重新考虑一下你在咖啡馆排队买咖啡的15分钟。)”符合，其中“the 15 minutes”呼应下文的“a quarter-hour”，故选G。 【19题详解】 根据本段中心句“Keep your sleep/wake schedule on weekends.(周末保持你的睡眠/起床时间表)”可知，本段主要建议人们在周末也要坚持自己的作息时间，上文“But compensating (弥补) on the weekends actually feeds into your sleepiness the following week, a recent study found(但最近的一项研究发现，周末的补偿实际上会让你在接下来的一周更加困倦。)”指出如果周末没有保持自己的作息时间，而是多睡觉，这实际上让自己下周更困倦，由此可知，此处强调我们应该要保持自己的作息时间，F项“Stick to your set bedtime and wake-up time, no matter the day it is.(不管是哪一天，都要坚持你设定的睡觉时间和起床时间。)”符合，对上文做出总结，故选F。 【20题详解】 上文“After you’ve tried a new method for a week, take a look at your record.(在你尝试了一个星期的新方法之后，看看你的记录。)”指出我们在尝试新方法后，要自己做好记录同时进行评估，下文“If not, take another look at other methods you could try.(如果没有，再看看其他你可以尝试的方法。)”指出尝试的新方法如果不起作用，要改变方法，由此可推知，空处应该与下文对应，指出如果方法奏效，要继续使用，E项“If the steps you take are working, keep it up.(如果你采取的措施奏效了，那就坚持下去。)”符合，故选E。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When receiving the school’s only Excellent Teaching Award of the year, I just couldn’t keep my feelings under control.

Though##Although##While 41. increasingly 42. themselves 43. a 44. to interpret 45. representatives 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了中国诗歌的历史、特点以及翻译的重要性，并提到了著名的中国诗人。 【36题详解】 考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：现存最早的中国诗歌集《诗经》可以追溯到公元前11世纪，但中国诗歌的历史可能比这还要长。date back to意为“追溯到”，没有被动语态，此处描述客观事实，应用一般现在时，主语为The earliest existing collection of Chinese poetry，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填dates。 【37题详解】 考查语态。句意：中国诗歌经过数千年的发展和变化，就像一片美丽而深邃的海洋，可以供讲汉语的人或一些外国爱好者去探索。that引导定语从句，先行词为a beautiful and deep ocean，在从句中作主语，和谓语动词explore之间为被动关系，应用被动语态，空前有情态动词can，所以空处需要be done，构成含有情态动词的被动语态。故填be explored。 【38题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：古代诗歌写于1000多年前，更简单，写的是人们欣赏的关于爱情、浪漫和自然等普通事物。此处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词为The ancient poetry，指物，关系词在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which引导该从句。故填which。 【39题详解】 考查介词。句意：古代诗歌写于1000多年前，更简单，写的是人们欣赏的关于爱情、浪漫和自然等普通事物。根据空后“love, romance and nature”可知，此处表示举例，用介词like“像，例如”。故填like。 【40题详解】 考查让步状语从句。句意：尽管在宋代以后的几个朝代里写了很多诗，但人们认为诗人们变得越来越学术化和抽象化，以至于现代中国人无法欣赏这种风格和意义。结合句意可知，前后为让步关系，应用although或though或者while“尽管”引导让步状语从句，句首单词首字母大写。故填Though/Although//While。 【41题详解】 考查副词。句意：尽管在宋代以后的几个朝代里写了很多诗，但人们认为诗人们变得越来越学术化和抽象化，以至于现代中国人无法欣赏这种风格和意义。此处修饰形容词academic and abstract，应用副词increasingly“越来越多地”，作状语。故填increasingly。 【42题详解】 考查反身代词。句意：原因之一是汉字本身的性质。此处用反身代词 themselves作Chinese characteristics的同位语，起强调作用。故填themselves。 【43题详解】 考查冠词。句意：通常这些词有很多含义，这使得汉译英成为阅读和理解中国诗歌的关键部分。part为可数名词，此处表泛指，表示“一个关键部分”，应用不定冠词，且key的发音以辅音音素开头，应用a。故填a。 【44题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：所以好的翻译对我们理解中国诗歌至关重要。此处为固定句型：It be essential for sb. to do sth.意为“做某事对某人来说是至关重要的”，it为形式主语，不定式为真正的主语。故填to interpret。 【45题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：如果要列举中国最伟大的诗人，唐代的杜甫和李白，他们是古代诗人的代表，往往名列前茅。representative为名词“代表”，主语是Du Fu and Li Bai，是两个人，用名词复数形式。故填representatives。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 请你写一篇短文向校英文报“Sports and Health”栏目投稿，向同学们推荐一项适合强身健体的运动，激发同学们的运动热情，内容包括： 1. 介绍这项运动：2. 说明推荐理由；3. 温馨提示。 注意：1. 写作词数应为80左右；2. 可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear Sir/Madam, Regular exercise is part of a healthy life. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours Li Hua 【答案】Dear Sir/Madam, Regular exercise is part of a healthy life.

In groups, we were to create a newspaper around the culture we were studying. On a piece of paper, we wrote the names of three friends we wanted in our group. After collecting all the requests, Mrs. Bartlett informed us that she would take into consideration the names we chose and would let us know the results the next day. I had no doubt I would get the group of my choice. There were only a handful of sociably decent people in the class, and Missy was one of them. I knew we had chosen each other. The next day, I anxiously awaited the class. After the bell rang, Missy and I stopped talking as Mrs. Bartlett called for our attention. She started to call out names. When she reached group three, Missy’s name was called. So I’m in group three, I thought. The second, third and fourth members of the group were called. My name was not included. There had to be some mistake! Then I heard it. The last group: “Mauro, Juliette, Rachel, Karina.” I could feel the tears well in my eyes. How could I face being in that group the boy who barely spoke English, the one girl who was always covered by skirts that went down to her ankles, and the other girl who wore weird clothes. Oh, how badly I wanted to be with my friends. After class, I fought back tears as I walked up to Mrs. Bartlett’s office. She looked at me and knew what I was there for. I was determined to convince her I should be in the “good” group. “Why. . . ?” I started. 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。 Mrs.Bartlett sat me down and began to talk. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I bravely walked to the last group. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Mr. Bartlett sat me down and began to talk. She gently placed a hand on my shoulder. “I know what you want,” she said, “but your group needs you. I need you to help them get a passing grade on this assignment. Only you can help them.” Stunned, I didn’t say a single word. “Will you help them?” she asked. Hesitating for moment, I replied “Yes! Let me have a go!” I couldn’t believe it came out of my mouth, but it did. I had committed. I thought that I was given a chance to see my classmates in a new light. I bravely walked to the last group. I sat down and we started to create a newspaper. Different newspaper columns were assigned according to our interests.Then we did research. Through the week, I didn’t show any dissatisfaction before other three classmates. Instead, we became good friends. I felt myself enjoying the company of them. Through our cooperation, a newspaper was successfully made. 【解析】 【导语】本文以故事发展的顺序为线索展开，讲述了老师在课堂上宣布一个新项目，学生们需要分组创建围绕他们正在学习的文化主题的报纸，而主人公希望和自己的朋友Missy一起组队。然而，在老师宣布分组结果时，主人公却没有被分到和自己想要的朋友一起的小组，而是被分到了另一个小组，为此主人公感到失望和沮丧并去找老师讨论这个分组决定的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Mrs.Bartlett 让我坐下，开始说话。”可知，第一段可描写“Mrs.Bartlett 了解我的想法并鼓励我帮助组员，我最终同意了”的相关细节。 ②由第二段首句内容“我勇敢地走到最后一组。”可知，第二段可描写“我和组员合作研究制作报纸并很愉快地取得了成功”的相关细节。 2.续写线索：老师鼓励我——我犹豫后同意——和组员合作——成为朋友——愉快完成任务 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①帮助：help/assist ②回答：reply/answer/respond ③表现：show/display 情绪类 ①不满：dissatisfaction/complaint ②惊讶的：stunned/astonished/astounded 【点睛】【高分句型1】I thought that I was given a chance to see my classmates in a new light.(使用了that引导的宾语从句) 【高分句型2】I felt myself enjoying the company of them.
