It’s exciting to choose the destination, activities, and the company. But do these trips always go as planned? Let’s hear from Sophie, Fred, and Chris about their experiences. Last summer, after exams, I invited my friend Paula to Greece. We flew to Athens and headed straight to Milos. Exhausted but eager, we went straight to the beach. You won’t believe what happened! We lay down, closed our eyes, and woke up two hours later — completely sunburned! We were boiling and thirsty. Lesson learned: never fall asleep in the sun without sunscreen! —Sophie, 16 My first holiday was a weekend in London with my friends Jim and Simon. We took a taxi to the bus station, but when we arrived, I realized I’d lost my wallet — probably left it on the bus. Luckily, Jim and Simon lent me the money, so we continued on. Despite the rough start, we stayed at Jim’s house and had an incredible weekend sightseeing and exploring. —Fred, 17 My first trip was a camping adventure with my friend Tom. We went to a campsite in the forest near our town. Not wanting my parents to drive us, we took a bus and walked the rest of the way. Unfortunately, as soon as we arrived, it began to rain, and before we could set up the tent, all our gear (装备) was soaked. Although I managed to pitch the tent quickly, thanks to my previous experience, everything inside was wet, Thankfully, the sun came out the next day, allowing us to dry off our belongings, and from that point on, we had a fantastic time camping in the forest. —Chris, 15 1. What happened to Sophie and her friend after they woke up on the beach? A. They met a friend. B. They got sunburnt. C. They lost their way. D. They went for a swim. 2 What was the weather like when Chris and his friend got to the campsite? A. It was rainy and wet. B. It was windy and dry. C. It was sunny but cold. D. It was cloudy but warm. 3. What do Sophie, Fred, and Chris have in common about their first holidays? A. They all traveled on a weekend. B. They all forgot important things. C. They all met unexpected problems. D. They all traveled with family members. 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章分别介绍了三位青少年首次独自旅行的经历和教训。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“We lay down, closed our eyes, and woke up two hours later—completely sunburned!(我们躺下，闭上眼睛，两个小时后醒来——完全被晒伤了)”可知，Sophie和她的朋友醒来后，发现她们被晒伤了。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Unfortunately, as soon as we arrived, it began to rain, and before we could set up the tent, all our gear was soaked.(不幸的是，我们刚到就下雨了，还没来得及搭起帐篷，所有的装备都湿透了)”可知，Chris和他的朋友到营地时，天下着雨，所有的装备都被淋湿了。因此可知，当时天气是又雨又湿。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“We lay down, closed our eyes, and woke up two hours later—completely sunburned!(我们躺下，闭上眼睛，两个小时后醒来——完全被晒伤了)”,第三段中“We took a taxi to the bus station, but when we arrived, I realized I’d lost my wallet — probably left it on the bus.(我们乘出租车去了公交车站，但当我们到达时，我意识到我丢了钱包——可能把它落在公交车上了)”以及最后一段中“Unfortunately, as soon as we arrived, it began to rain, and before we could set up the tent, all our gear was soaked.(不幸的是，我们刚到就下雨了，还没来得及搭起帐篷，所有的装备都湿透了)”可以看出，Sophie、Fred和Chris在第一次度假时都遇到了意料之外的问题。故选C。 B I cannot remember a point in my life when I desired anything other than becoming a teacher. At the beginning of my senior year in high school, I began applying to the University of Connecticut. But what I didn’t realize was how expensive my dream was. I came from a middle-class family, and it seemed as though we’d always struggled to make ends meet. I wasn’t the smartest person in my class, not even close; but my heart was in the right place, and I was determined. I applied for every scholarship I could get my hands on. What did I have to lose? And then my guidance counselor told me about the financial aid system. I applied, but I didn’t think I would qualify for that either. After the holidays, my friends started receiving their acceptance letters from colleges, and I eagerly anticipated mine. Finally, a letter arrived from the University of Connecticut. Feelings of fear and joy overwhelmed me when I opened the envelope with trembling hands. I had done it! I cried for a while, feeling both extremely excited and afraid. I had been working a full-time job, but that was barely enough to pay for tuition, and it was impossible for my parents to finance my education. Months went by before a letter from the financial aid office arrived. I opened it eagerly, but it was only a letter requesting more information to process my application. This happened over and over, and my hopes kept getting shot down. Finally, a bulky envelope arrived, the one that would determine whether I could attend college. Not only was financial aid going to help me out with my expenses, but also I won two of the scholarships I had applied for! I had actually made my dream come true. I am now a junior at the University of Connecticut, pursuing a degree in English. 4. What was the author’s main trouble in realizing her dream? A. She lacked determination. B. Her family was short of money. C. She didn’t know which university to apply to. D. Her parents disapproved of her attending university. 5. How did the author get money for her tuition fees? A. By taking up part-time jobs. B. By receiving her parents’ support. C. By turning to her guidance counselor for help. D. By applying for scholarships and financial aid . 6. Why did the financial aid office send the author the first letter? A. To test her determination. B. To inform her of their refusal. C To ask for supplemental information. D. To check the process of her application. 7. What does the author want to convey by sharing her story? A. Never say never. B. More haste, less speed. C. Aiming higher, achieving more. D. Pride hurts, modesty benefits. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述作者的家庭很贫困，原本无法支付学费，但作者没有轻易言败，积极争取奖学金，努力赚取学费，最终成功入学，作者通过自己的经历想要告诉读者一个道理：永不言败。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“I had been working a full-time job, but that was barely enough to pay for tuition, and it was impossible for my parents to finance my education.”（我有一份全职工作，但那仅仅够付学费，我的父母不可能负担我的教育费用。）可知，在实现梦想的过程中遇到的主要困难是她家缺钱，故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Not only was financial aid going to help me out with my expenses, but also I won two of the scholarships I had applied for! I had actually made my dream come true.”（经济援助不仅帮我解决了开支问题，而且我还获得了我申请的两项奖学金!我真的实现了我的梦想。）可知，通过申请奖学金和经济援助作者得到了学费，故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Months went by before a letter from the financial aid office arrived. I opened it eagerly, but it was only a letter requesting more information to process my application.”（几个月过去了，财务援助办公室的信才寄来。我急切地打开它，但这只是一封要求提供更多信息来处理我的申请的信。）可知，经济援助办公室给作者寄了第一封信要求补充信息，故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文讲述作者的家庭很贫困，原本无法支付学费，但作者没有轻易言败，积极争取奖学金，努力赚取学费，最终成功入学，作者通过自己的经历想要告诉读者一个道理：永不言败，故选A。 C In his new book, The Animals Among Us, John Bradshaw destroys a few myths (错误认识) about the pets that increasingly crowd our homes. Some assumptions he questions are whether animals can feel embarrassment or guilt, and whether their minds are able to plan. In an interview, he said, “Alexandra Horowitz, the author of Our Dogs, Ourselves in New York, showed that the guilty look is actually a sign of the dog’s great ability to read human body language. Dogs put the guilty look on almost before the owner knows it’s time to get angry about something the dog has done. They almost seem to react as fast as our minds can. As soon as you look at the dog, the dog is already looking guilty.” “You make the assumption that the dog was looking guilty before you looked at it. But the science shows that the dog doesn’t start looking guilty until the moment it sees the owner’s body language. “So, what kind of abilities do you need to feel guilt? In our human terms, guilt is quite complex. You have to compare something you did in the past with some internal norms (内在的标准), which you have learned over the course of a long period of time. There’s no evidence that the dog’s mind can do that. “I am not saying that dogs are stupid. Their minds are very good at doing what they do. They can react more quickly to human body language than humans can. But we assume their emotions are the same as ours, and that’s the mistake. “As for planning, there has also been a lot of research but not so much into dogs. The problem is making comparisons between animals. Although humans and dogs share some similarities, the cerebral cortex (大脑皮层), the bit we do most of our thinking with, is reduced in dogs. They rely a lot more on smell. They do have an ability to plan if they’ve been faced with a particular situation before. But they can’t imagine themselves into a situation they’ve never been in.” 8. On which question are Alexandra’s and John’s opinions divided? A. Whether dogs have guilty looks. B. Whether dogs use body language. C. Whether dogs can feel guilty like man. D. Whether dogs can feel their owners’ anger. 9. Which of the following would John Bradshaw agree with? A. Dogs are as clever as man. B. Dogs are easy to understand. C. Dogs have the same emotions as man. D. Dogs can read human body language fast. 10. What is John Bradshaw’s opinion about dogs’ planning ability? A. It’s limited. B. It’s common in dogs. C. It’s beyond our expectations. D. It’s controlled by the cerebral cortex. 11. What’s the purpose of the text? A. To advertise John Bradshaw’s book. B. To stress the role of body language. C. To show dogs’ communication skills. D. To correct misunderstandings about dogs. 【答案】8 C 9. D 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要是围绕人们关于狗的两个误解展开的，并借John Bradshaw之口解释了真实的情况分别是什么。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Some assumptions he questions are whether animals can feel embarrassment or guilt, and whether their minds are able to plan.(他质疑的一些假设是动物是否会感到尴尬或内疚，以及它们的大脑是否能够计划)”和“Dogs put the guilty look on almost before the owner knows it’s time to get angry about something the dog has done.(狗狗们几乎在主人知道是时候对狗狗所做的事情生气之前就露出了内疚的表情)”以及第四段中的“There’s no evidence that the dog’s mind can do that.(没有证据表明狗的大脑能做到这一点)”可知，两人真正的分歧在于John认为狗不会像人一样感到内疚。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“They can react more quickly to human body language than humans can.(它们对人类肢体语言的反应比人类更快)”可知，John认为狗可以迅速解读人类的肢体语言。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“They do have an ability to plan if they’ve been faced with a particular situation before. But they can’t imagine themselves into a situation they’ve never been in.(如果他们以前面对过特定的情况，他们确实有计划的能力。但他们无法想象自己会陷入一个从未经历过的境地)”可知，狗的计划能力是非常有限的，仅限于它们见过的情况。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“In his new book, The Animals Among Us, John Bradshaw destroys a few myths (错误认识) about the pets that increasingly crowd our homes.(在他的新书《我们身边的动物》中，约翰·布拉德肖打破了一些关于宠物的神话，这些宠物越来越多地挤在我们的家里)”和下文具体内容可知，本文主要是围绕人们关于狗的两个误解展开的，并借John Bradshaw之口解释了真实的情况分别是什么。即文章的目的是纠正对狗的误解。故选D。 D Kabita Lohar lives in Pipriya village, a community located at the banks of the Mahakali River in Nepal. She is usually seen walking along the riverbank, carrying a blue box which contains equipment and chemicals to test the quality of water in the river. As Kabita carefully collects water samples (样本) from the river into her test-tube and observe the color of the water, she says, “Our rivers are getting polluted; we need to raise awareness and encourage the community to save our rivers.” Kabita is one of the many citizen scientists trained by Oxfam. Around five years ago, Oxfam started working with the communities living in the riverbanks of the Mahakali River through a project called Transboundary Rivers of South Asia (TROSA). The project aims to give the riverside communities more access to and control over water resources. “We use this data to encourage effective measures and raise awareness about water pollution among the community members and local government,” says Kabita. People used to believe that the water in at the Mahakali River contains something that is good for health, so it was a common practice to drink water directly from the river. But with the data on water pollution provided by citizen scientists like Kabita, they could raise awareness of the importance of not drinking water directly from the river. Kabita says, “A few months ago, we spoke with our mayor (市长) about introducing measures to prevent the inflow of waste made by families and hotels into the river. Our mayor has stated that he will meet our demands. But we don’t just want promises; we want action, and we will keep following up until the promise becomes a reality.” 12. Why does Kabita walk along the bank? A. To clean the riverbanks. B. To collect experimental data. C. To enjoy nature for relaxation. D. To collect water from family use. 13. How did Kabita make the villagers drink clean water? A. By showing them the truth. B. By finding clean water for them. C. By encouraging effective measures. D. By stopping pouring waste into the river. 14. Which of the following can best describe Kabita? A. Energetic. B. Confident. C. Organized. D. Determined. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. Water pollution is serious in Nepal. B. Science is helpful in reducing pollution. C. A citizen scientist fights water pollution. D. A youth makes a difference to her village. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述公民科学家Kabita Lohar利用水污染数据，提高社区成员和地方政府对水污染的认识的故事。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“She is usually seen walking along the riverbank, carrying a blue box which contains equipment and chemicals to test the quality of water in the river. As Kabita carefully collects water samples (样本) from the river into her test-tube and observe the color of the water (人们经常看到她走在河岸上，手里拿着一个蓝色的盒子，里面装着检测河水质量的设备和化学药品。Kabita一边小心翼翼地从河中采集水样，放入试管中观察水的颜色)”和第二段中“We use this data to encourage effective measures and raise awareness about water pollution among the community members and local government (我们利用这些数据鼓励采取有效措施，提高社区成员和地方政府对水污染的认识)”可知，Kabita在河边走是为了采集水样，收集实验数据。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“But with the data on water pollution provided by citizen scientists like Kabita, they could raise awareness of the importance of not drinking water directly from the river. (但是有了像Kabita这样的公民科学家提供的水污染数据，他们可以提高人们对不直接从河里喝水的重要性的认识)”可知，Kabita通过向村民展示水污染数据来使他们喝干净的水。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，尤其是最后一段中“Our mayor has stated that he will meet our demands. But we don’t just want promises; we want action, and we will keep following up until the promise becomes a reality. (我们的市长说他会满足我们的要求。但我们不只是想要承诺；我们需要行动，我们将继续跟进，直到承诺成为现实)”可知，Kabita坚持检测水样，坚决要求解决水污染问题，很有决心。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是第一段中“Our rivers are getting polluted; we need to raise awareness and encourage the community to save our rivers. (我们的河流正在受到污染；我们需要提高意识，鼓励社区拯救我们的河流)”可知，文章主要讲述公民科学家Kabita Lohar利用水污染数据，提高社区成员和地方政府对水污染的认识的故事，C项“一位公民科学家与水污染作斗争”能够总结文章大意。故选C。 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。 A social phobia (恐惧症) in an anxiety disorder with strong fear in social situations. ____16____ when other people are around.

In most cases you are afraid of things that have not happened or are not happening. ____19____. Be yourself. To some degree, social phobia is caused by the belief that we have to be perfect as others expect. ____20____.

If we try to relate to the outside of our usual circle, we will feel more comfortable little by little. In this way, when a social event arrives that we want to attend or take part in, we will be better able to be comfortable in it.”（如果我们总是出于恐惧而逃避社交场合，我们就很难克服它们。如果我们试着与我们平常圈子之外的人建立联系，我们会逐渐感到更舒服。这样，当我们想要参加或参与的社交活动到来时，我们就能更好地适应它。）可知，讲的是多接触一些社交场合。结合选项A项Look for social situations（寻找社交场合）意思一致，为总结该段内容。故选A项。 【19题详解】 根据该段标题“Imagination can play tricks on us in social situations.”（在社交场合，想象力会捉弄我们。）以及上文“In most cases you are afraid of things that have not happened or are not happening.”（在大多数情况下，你害怕那些没有发生或没有发生的事情。）可知，该段主要讲的是想象力会捉弄我们，我们可能会担心那些没有发生过或没有发生的事情。结合选项F项We have to be worried about what we think others may be thinking of us.（我们不得不担心我们认为别人会怎么看我们。）和上文内容相关，都是讲的担心别人的看法，也是对上文内容的语意递进，上下文语意连贯。故选F项。 【20题详解】 根据该段标题“Be yourself”（做你自己。）以及下文“So we do not have to focus so much on what others may think of us, but on feeling comfortable with ourselves without having to be perfect.”（所以我们不需要太关注别人对我们的看法，而是要对自己感到舒适，而不必变得完美。）可知，讲的是做自己就好，不需要太关注别人对我们的看法。故可推断空格处内容与此相关，结合选项We have to learn to accept and trust ourselves.（我们必须学会接受和信任自己。）符合此推断，与该段主旨一致，都是讲的接受自己，做自己的相关内容。上下文语意连贯。故选D项。 第三部分 英语知识运用 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给四个选项（A、B、C和 D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项， 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 It’s 27 years since my last conversation with my mother, who didn’t finish school like many of her contemporary girls.

My dad found her at work. She was wandering and starving. He took one look at her, and said, “Seems like you could use a good home.” He opened up the door to his truck and she jumped in. Her tail wagged (摇动) all the way. I was still at school when dad arrived home with the puppy. Mom and dad fed her and gave her a bath. This would be my first pet. I had always wanted a dog. My parents told me when I was old enough and responsible, I could have one. Well, I guess they figured the time was right. When I walked back home, a white and black puppy with a red bow stuck to her head greeted me with many many puppy kisses. A wild joy took hold of me and a very special friendship was born that day. Now she needed a name. My older brother laughed at her and said her tail didn’t wag back and forth like others, but went in a circle. He moved his finger around his ear, and said, “She’s squirrely”. Thus my puppy got her name, Squirrely. 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。 Squirrely was a smart dog and brought me much joy. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, arthritis (关节炎) hit my best friend when she was 12. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version： Squirrely was a smart dog and brought me much joy.

When I gave her a bath, she would stare at me and kiss my hands gently, as if to say:“Thank you, my friend!”Also, I fed her and taught her to play hide and seek. With time passing by, we spent our days learning and growing together. However, arthritis (关节炎) hit my best friend when she was 12. She seemed so painful and could barely walk. I carried her to see the vet in a hurry, but was told there was no special treatment for the disease caused by old age. Seeing her suffering so much, I felt heart-broken. All I could do was to accompany her all the time. Three weeks later, she left me quietly. I buried her in the yard, where we had a lot of fun. I knew my good friend would be with me always. 【解析】 【导语】本文以故事的时间顺序展开，讲述了作者从小喜欢小狗，在长大以后，父亲给作者带来了一只小狗，二者初次见面就亲密无间，作者还给小狗起了名字为“Squirrel”，一份特殊的友谊就此产生。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Squirrel是一只聪明的狗，给我带来了很多快乐。”可知，第一段可描写小狗给作者带来的快乐是什么。 ②由第二段首句内容“然而，关节炎在我最好的朋友12岁时袭击了她。”可知，第二段可描写作者在小狗生病后是如何照顾她的以及小狗最后的结局是什么。 2.续写线索：小狗迎接作者——作者照顾小狗——二者一起成长——小狗生病去世——作者的感受 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.问候：greet sb./say hello to sb./send regards to sb. ②.凝视：stare at/gaze at/fix one’s eyes on ③.陪伴：accompany sb./keep sb. company 情绪类 ①.伤心：heart-broken/sad/gloomy/sorrowful ②.柔和：gentle/warm/calm and kind 【点睛】[高分句型1].

It’s exciting to choose the destination, activities, and the company. But do these trips always go as planned? Let’s hear from Sophie, Fred, and Chris about their experiences. Last summer, after exams, I invited my friend Paula to Greece. We flew to Athens and headed straight to Milos. Exhausted but eager, we went straight to the beach. You won’t believe what happened! We lay down, closed our eyes, and woke up two hours later — completely sunburned! We were boiling and thirsty. Lesson learned: never fall asleep in the sun without sunscreen! —Sophie, 16 My first holiday was a weekend in London with my friends Jim and Simon. We took a taxi to the bus station, but when we arrived, I realized I’d lost my wallet — probably left it on the bus. Luckily, Jim and Simon lent me the money, so we continued on. Despite the rough start, we stayed at Jim’s house and had an incredible weekend sightseeing and exploring. —Fred, 17 My first trip was a camping adventure with my friend Tom. We went to a campsite in the forest near our town. Not wanting my parents to drive us, we took a bus and walked the rest of the way. Unfortunately, as soon as we arrived, it began to rain, and before we could set up the tent, all our gear (装备) was soaked. Although I managed to pitch the tent quickly, thanks to my previous experience, everything inside was wet, Thankfully, the sun came out the next day, allowing us to dry off our belongings, and from that point on, we had a fantastic time camping in the forest. —Chris, 15 1. What happened to Sophie and her friend after they woke up on the beach? A. They met a friend. B. They got sunburnt. C. They lost their way. D. They went for a swim. 2. What was the weather like when Chris and his friend got to the campsite? A. It was rainy and wet. B. It was windy and dry. C. It was sunny but cold. D. It was cloudy but warm. 3. What do Sophie, Fred, and Chris have in common about their first holidays? A. They all traveled on a weekend. B. They all forgot important things. C. They all met unexpected problems. D. They all traveled with family members. B I cannot remember a point in my life when I desired anything other than becoming a teacher. At the beginning of my senior year in high school, I began applying to the University of Connecticut. But what I didn’t realize was how expensive my dream was. I came from a middle-class family, and it seemed as though we’d always struggled to make ends meet. I wasn’t the smartest person in my class, not even close; but my heart was in the right place, and I was determined. I applied for every scholarship I could get my hands on. What did I have to lose? And then my guidance counselor told me about the financial aid system. I applied, but I didn’t think I would qualify for that either. After the holidays, my friends started receiving their acceptance letters from colleges, and I eagerly anticipated mine. Finally, a letter arrived from the University of Connecticut. Feelings of fear and joy overwhelmed me when I opened the envelope with trembling hands. I had done it! I cried for a while, feeling both extremely excited and afraid. I had been working a full-time job, but that was barely enough to pay for tuition, and it was impossible for my parents to finance my education. Months went by before a letter from the financial aid office arrived. I opened it eagerly, but it was only a letter requesting more information to process my application. This happened over and over, and my hopes kept getting shot down. Finally, a bulky envelope arrived, the one that would determine whether I could attend college. Not only was financial aid going to help me out with my expenses, but also I won two of the scholarships I had applied for! I had actually made my dream come true. I am now a junior at the University of Connecticut, pursuing a degree in English. 4. What was the author’s main trouble in realizing her dream? A. She lacked determination. B. Her family was short of money. C. She didn’t know which university to apply to. D. Her parents disapproved of her attending university. 5. How did the author get money for her tuition fees? A. By taking up part-time jobs. B. By receiving her parents’ support. C. By turning to her guidance counselor for help. D. By applying for scholarships and financial aid . 6. Why did the financial aid office send the author the first letter? A. To test her determination. B. To inform her of their refusal. C. To ask for supplemental information. D. To check the process of her application. 7. What does the author want to convey by sharing her story? A. Never say never. B. More haste, less speed. C. Aiming higher, achieving more. D. Pride hurts, modesty benefits. C In his new book, The Animals Among Us, John Bradshaw destroys a few myths (错误认识) about the pets that increasingly crowd our homes. Some assumptions he questions are whether animals can feel embarrassment or guilt, and whether their minds are able to plan. In an interview, he said, “Alexandra Horowitz, the author of Our Dogs, Ourselves in New York, showed that the guilty look is actually a sign of the dog’s great ability to read human body language. Dogs put the guilty look on almost before the owner knows it’s time to get angry about something the dog has done. They almost seem to react as fast as our minds can. As soon as you look at the dog, the dog is already looking guilty.” “You make the assumption that the dog was looking guilty before you looked at it. But the science shows that the dog doesn’t start looking guilty until the moment it sees the owner’s body language. “So, what kind of abilities do you need to feel guilt? In our human terms, guilt is quite complex. You have to compare something you did in the past with some internal norms (内在的标准), which you have learned over the course of a long period of time. There’s no evidence that the dog’s mind can do that. “I am not saying that dogs are stupid. Their minds are very good at doing what they do. They can react more quickly to human body language than humans can. But we assume their emotions are the same as ours, and that’s the mistake. “As for planning there has also been a lot of research but not so much into dogs. The problem is making comparisons between animals. Although humans and dogs share some similarities, the cerebral cortex (大脑皮层), the bit we do most of our thinking with, is reduced in dogs. They rely a lot more on smell. They do have an ability to plan if they’ve been faced with a particular situation before. But they can’t imagine themselves into a situation they’ve never been in.” 8.

She is usually seen walking along the riverbank, carrying a blue box which contains equipment and chemicals to test the quality of water in the river. As Kabita carefully collects water samples (样本) from the river into her test-tube and observe the color of the water, she says, “Our rivers are getting polluted; we need to raise awareness and encourage the community to save our rivers.” Kabita is one of the many citizen scientists trained by Oxfam. Around five years ago, Oxfam started working with the communities living in the riverbanks of the Mahakali River through a project called Transboundary Rivers of South Asia (TROSA). The project aims to give the riverside communities more access to and control over water resources. “We use this data to encourage effective measures and raise awareness about water pollution among the community members and local government,” says Kabita. People used to believe that the water in at the Mahakali River contains something that is good for health, so it was a common practice to drink water directly from the river. But with the data on water pollution provided by citizen scientists like Kabita, they could raise awareness of the importance of not drinking water directly from the river. Kabita says, “A few months ago, we spoke with our mayor (市长) about introducing measures to prevent the inflow of waste made by families and hotels into the river. Our mayor has stated that he will meet our demands. But we don’t just want promises; we want action, and we will keep following up until the promise becomes a reality.” 12. Why does Kabita walk along the bank? A. To clean the riverbanks. B. To collect experimental data. C. To enjoy nature for relaxation. D. To collect water from family use. 13. How did Kabita make the villagers drink clean water? A. By showing them the truth. B. By finding clean water for them. C. By encouraging effective measures. D. By stopping pouring waste into the river. 14. Which of the following can best describe Kabita? A. Energetic. B. Confident. C. Organized. D. Determined. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. Water pollution is serious in Nepal. B. Science is helpful in reducing pollution. C. A citizen scientist fights water pollution. D. A youth makes a difference to her village. 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。 A social phobia (恐惧症) in an anxiety disorder with strong fear in social situations. ____16____ when other people are around.

My dad found her at work. She was wandering and starving. He took one look at her, and said, “Seems like you could use a good home.” He opened up the door to his truck and she jumped in. Her tail wagged (摇动) all the way. I was still at school when dad arrived home with the puppy. Mom and dad fed her and gave her a bath. This would be my first pet. I had always wanted a dog. My parents told me when I was old enough and responsible, I could have one. Well, I guess they figured the time was right. When I walked back home, a white and black puppy with a red bow stuck to her head greeted me with many many puppy kisses. A wild joy took hold of me and a very special friendship was born that day. Now she needed a name. My older brother laughed at her and said her tail didn’t wag back and forth like others, but went in a circle. He moved his finger around his ear, and said, “She’s squirrely”. Thus my puppy got her name, Squirrely. 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。 Squirrely was a smart dog and brought me much joy. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, arthritis (关节炎) hit my best friend when she was 12. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
