A 【解析】 【原文】W: With the rapid growth in China’s cities, some architecture companies are trying to help the environment keep up. Some are even trying to find more ways to bring the urban population into contact with nature. MAD Architects is one of those companies that are trying to take “green” designs to a new level. The company believes in the importance of making buildings that can produce their own power and food. They believe the buildings should also recycle all of their waste. The new designs make people living and working in these buildings think about being outside. They feel like they’re reconnecting with the natural world, instead of being far apart from it. The company believes this way of thinking is very important for the future of urban living. One of MAD’s newest projects is called the Urban Forest, designed for the city of Chongqing. There will be offices, open spaces, balconies with trees, and many plants throughout. The project is inspired by the mountainous Chinese landscape and the traditional villages built on the hillsides. It will be an urban engineering wonder! Architects who are interested in working on the Urban Forest should apply at the MAD offices in Beijing, New York or Rome.  第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。 A Henry Raeburn (1756-1823) The Exhibition This exhibition of some sixty masterpieces celebrating the life and work of Scotland’s best loved painter, Sir Henry Raeburn, comes to London.

Y. — Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood — traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-room schoolhouse. The girls had gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for them to move to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with string was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and Dorothy Woodruff’s granddaughter. Why did they go then? Well, they wanted to do something useful. Soon, however, they realized what they had undertaken. They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning. Some mornings, Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the schoolhouse to find the children weeping from the cold. In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice. In Wickenden’s book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, which of course influenced the girls’ decision to go to Elkhead. A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed (牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy’s return to Auburn. Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism (坚忍) of the people move her to some beautiful writing. Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse, looking down from a hill top:“ When the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow all around them. Then a full moon rose. The snow was marked only by small animals: foxes, coyotes, mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter. 24. Why did Dorothy and Rosamond go to the Rocky Mountains? A. To teach in a school. B. To study American history. C. To write a book. D. To do sightseeing. 25. What can we learn about the girls from paragraph 3? A. They enjoyed much respect. B. They had a room with a bathtub. C. They lived with the local kids. D. They suffered great challenges. 26. Which part of Wickenden’s writing is hair-raising? A. The extreme climate of Auburn. B. The living conditions in Elkhead. C. The railroad building in the Rockies. D. The natural beauty of the West. 27. What is the text? A. A news report. B. A book review. C. A children’s story. D. A diary entry. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. C 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，是一则书评，主要讲述了Dorothy Wickenden的一部书，记录了两位来自富裕家庭的年轻女孩——Dorothy Woodruff和Rosamond Underwood——在1916年前往落基山脉的一个定居点，在一间只有一个教室的学校教书的故事。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In 1916, two girls of wealthy families, best friends from Auburn, N. Y.—Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood—traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-room schoolhouse.(1916年，来自纽约州奥本的两个富有家庭的女孩——Dorothy Woodruff和Rosamond Underwood——来到落基山脉的一个定居点，在一间只有一个房间的校舍里教书。)”可知，她们去落基山脉是为了去教书，故选A。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning.(他们搬到了当地的哈里森家，和他们一样，几乎没有隐私，很少洗澡，早上醒来时被子上盖着一层雪。)”可知，两人生活条件恶劣。故选D。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed (牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms.(一个令人毛骨悚然的部分涉及到铁路的建设，这需要在落基山脉上钻孔，经常是在眩目的暴风雪中。)”可知，Wickenden作品的令人毛骨悚然的部分是落基山脉的铁路建筑。故选C。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是倒数第二段“In Wickenden’s book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, which of course influenced the girls’ decision to go to Elkhead. A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed (牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy’s return to Auburn.(在Wickenden的书中，她扩展了西方的历史和女权主义，这当然影响了女孩们去Elkhead的决定。一个令人毛骨悚然的部分涉及到铁路的建设，这需要在落基山脉上钻孔，经常是在眩目的暴风雪中。这本书以Rosamond和Dorothy回到奥本结束。)”可知，本文讲述了Dorothy Wickenden的一部书，记录了两位来自富裕家庭的年轻女孩——Dorothy Woodruff和Rosamond Underwood——在1916年前往落基山脉的一个定居点，在一间只有一个教室的学校教书的故事，因此是一篇书评，故选B。 C Palaces are known for their beauty and splendor, but they offer little protection against attacks. It is easy to defend a fortress (堡垒), but fortresses are not designed with the comfort of a king or queen in mind. When it comes to structures that are both fancy and well-defended, the classic European castle is the best example of design. Across the ages, castles changed, developed, and eventually fell out of use, but they still command the fascination of our culture. Castles were originally built in England by Norman invaders. In 1066, as William the Conqueror advanced through England, he defended key positions to secure the land he had taken. The castles he built allowed the Norman lords to draw back to safety when threatened by English rebellion (叛乱). Castles also served as bases of operation for offensive attacks. Soldiers were gathered, organized around, and deployed (部署) from castles. In this way castles served both offensive and defensive roles in military operations. Not limited to military (军事的) purposes, castles also served as offices from which the lord would administer control over his kingdom. That is to say, the lord of the land would hold court in his castle. Those that were socially beneath the lord would come to report the affairs of the lands that they governed and pay tribute to the lord. They would address conflicts, handle business, feast, and enjoy festivities, In this way castles served as important social centers in medieval England. Castles also served as symbols of power. Built on important and noticeable sites overlooking the surrounding areas, castles always appeared in the background of many peasants and served as a daily reminder of the lords strength. Now, castles no longer serve their original purposes. However, the remaining castles receive millions of visitors each year from those who wish to experience the glory of a time long passed. 28. The author introduces the topic of the text by ______. A. making an assumption B. giving an example C. making comparison D. giving a definition 29. Why did William the Conqueror build castles? A. He wanted to celebrate his victory. B. He wanted to remind people of his influence. C. He wanted to live peacefully with the English. D. He wanted to use them to his military advantage. 30. Which of the following is a way the lord would adopt to show his power? A. Dealing with conflicts in his castle. B. Building his castle in an obvious place. C. Carrying out social activities in his castle. D. Ordering peasants to live near his castle. 31. What attracts people to visit castles today? A. The history. B. The architecture. C. The beauty. D. The surroundings 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了欧洲城堡的发展、作用及如今的状况。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Palaces are known for their beauty and splendor, but they offer little protection against attacks. It is easy to defend a fortress (堡垒), but fortresses are not designed with the comfort of a king or queen in mind. When it comes to structures that are both fancy and well-defended, the classic European castle is the best example of design. (宫殿以其美丽和辉煌而闻名，但它们对抵御攻击几乎没有作用。防御堡垒很容易，但堡垒的设计并没有考虑到国王或王后的舒适。说到既华丽又防御性强的建筑，经典的欧洲城堡就是最好的设计范例。)”可知，作者通过比较宫殿和堡垒的特点来引入文章主题——欧洲城堡。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“In 1066, as William the Conqueror advanced through England, he defended key positions to secure the land he had taken. The castles he built allowed the Norman lords to draw back to safety when threatened by English rebellion (叛乱). Castles also served as bases of operation for offensive attacks. (1066年，征服者威廉在英格兰推进时，他保卫了关键要地以巩固他所占领的土地。他建造的城堡使诺曼贵族在受到英格兰叛乱威胁时能够撤退到安全地带。城堡也是进攻性攻击的行动基地。)”可知，建造城堡是为了利用它们来发挥军事优势。故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Castles also served as symbols of power. Built on important and noticeable sites overlooking the surrounding areas, castles always appeared in the background of many peasants and served as a daily reminder of the lords strength. (城堡也是权力的象征。城堡建在重要且显眼的地方，俯瞰着周围地区，总是出现在许多农民的背景中，并作为领主力量的日常提醒。)”可知，领主会选择在一个显眼的地方建造他的城堡来展示他的权力。故选B。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“However, the remaining castles receive millions of visitors each year from those who wish to experience the glory of a time long passed. (然而，剩下的城堡每年都吸引着数以百万计的游客，他们希望体验早已逝去的辉煌时代。)”可知，是城堡的历史吸引了人们今天来参观。故选A。 D Online games are very popular among people. They make a large amount of money and have a large user base, including lots of teenagers. But now, new rules on online games have been introduced, which are aimed at fighting against addiction (成瘾) among underage players. Adult players need to spend most of their time paying attention to work and family, and cannot play games as often as they want. However, underage players have more spare time, but less responsibility and self-control. Children without a clear purpose in life, where there is less family education and school management, might easily become addicted to all kinds of online games and online novels. The most direct impact of an addiction to online games among underage players is on their psychological (心理) health. According to psychologists, people seriously addicted to games can become anxious, bad tempered, and avoid responsibility. However, Chinese parents are more worried that their children will lack interest in studying if they become addicted to online games, as academic success is important for students. Additionally, when their children become addicted to such games, most parents do not know how to deal with the situation. To carry out the new rules to the best effect, more specific issues need to be solved, such as managing foreign online games, ensuring that facial recognition technologies used by games companies have the wanted effect or making sure online game providers can only offer one-hour services to underage players on Saturdays and Sundays. While there are always loopholes (漏洞) in new rules, authorities should act quickly to close them. There is no doubt that online games have harmful effects on young people. It is not acceptable for a large number of teenagers or those even younger, to become addicted to these games. 32. What’s the purpose of the new rules on online games? A. To raise awareness of Internet safety. B. To bring in new computer programs. C. To reduce the grown-up user base. D. To prevent the teenagers’ addiction. 33. Why are underage players addicted to online games more easily? A. They can learn more knowledge on the Internet. B. They have more free time and less self-control. C. They have purposes in life but lack higher education. D. They maintain a sense of curiosity about the Internet. 34. What problem has to be solved to ensure the effect of the new rules? A. How to reduce parents’ anxiety about kids’ study. B. How to find loopholes in the popular online games. C. How to control the service time of online game providers. D. How to invent a facial recognition game for young players. 35. What is the author’s attitude to the new rules ? A. Confused. B. Negative. C. Supportive. D. Uninterested. 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. C 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了一项针对网络游戏的新规定已经出台，旨在打击未成年玩家的沉迷。未成年人由于业余时间多，但又缺乏自制力而容易沉迷于网络游戏，这危害了未成年人的身心健康。新的规定在执行起来可能存在一些需要处理的漏洞，但是，防止未成年人沉迷于网络游戏刻不容缓。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段内容“But now, new rules on online games have been introduced, which are aimed at fighting against addiction among underage players.(但现在，新的网络游戏规则已经出台，旨在打击未成年玩家的网瘾)”可知，新的网络游戏规则的出台是为了打击未成年玩家的网瘾，由此推知，其目的应是为了防止未成年对网络游戏上瘾。故选D项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“However, underage players have more spare time, but less responsibility and self-control.(然而，未成年玩家有更多的业余时间，但责任心和自控力却更少)”可知，未成年玩家业余时间多，责任心和自控力却不足，这是他们容易沉迷于网络的原因。故选B项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段内容“To carry out the new rules to the best effect, more specific issues need to be solved, such as managing foreign online games, ensuring that facial recognition technologies used by games companies have the wanted effect or making sure online game providers can only offer one-hour services to underage players on Saturdays and Sundays.(为了使新规则发挥最佳效果，需要解决更具体的问题，例如管理外国在线游戏，确保游戏公司使用的面部识别技术具有预期效果，或者确保在线游戏提供商在周六和周日只能为未成年玩家提供一小时的服务)”可知，保证在线游戏提供商在周六和周日只能为未成年玩家提供一小时的服务是确保新规则的效果而必须解决的问题之一。故选C项。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段末尾句内容“While there are always loopholes in new rules, authorities should act quickly to close them.(尽管新规则总是有漏洞，但有关部门应该迅速采取行动来填补这些漏洞)”可知，在作者看来，这项新规虽然有漏洞，但是还是可以采取措施弥补的。由此可推知，对于这项新规，作者是支持的。故选C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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How similar are language and music?

Y. — Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood — traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-room schoolhouse. The girls had gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for them to move to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with string was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and Dorothy Woodruff’s granddaughter. Why did they go then? Well, they wanted to do something useful. Soon, however, they realized what they had undertaken. They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning. Some mornings, Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the schoolhouse to find the children weeping from the cold. In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice. In Wickenden’s book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, which of course influenced the girls’ decision to go to Elkhead. A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which entailed (牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy’s return to Auburn. Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism (坚忍) of the people move her to some beautiful writing. Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse, looking down from a hill top:“ When the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow all around them. Then a full moon rose. The snow was marked only by small animals: foxes, coyotes, mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter. 24. Why did Dorothy and Rosamond go to the Rocky Mountains? A. To teach in a school. B. To study American history. C. To write a book. D. To do sightseeing. 25. What can we learn about the girls from paragraph 3? A. They enjoyed much respect. B. They had a room with a bathtub. C. They lived with the local kids. D. They suffered great challenges. 26. Which part of Wickenden’s writing is hair-raising? A The extreme climate of Auburn. B. The living conditions in Elkhead. C. The railroad building in the Rockies. D. The natural beauty of the West. 27 What is the text? A. A news report. B. A book review. C. A children’s story. D. A diary entry. C Palaces are known for their beauty and splendor, but they offer little protection against attacks. It is easy to defend a fortress (堡垒), but fortresses are not designed with the comfort of a king or queen in mind. When it comes to structures that are both fancy and well-defended, the classic European castle is the best example of design. Across the ages, castles changed, developed, and eventually fell out of use, but they still command the fascination of our culture. Castles were originally built in England by Norman invaders. In 1066, as William the Conqueror advanced through England, he defended key positions to secure the land he had taken. The castles he built allowed the Norman lords to draw back to safety when threatened by English rebellion (叛乱). Castles also served as bases of operation for offensive attacks. Soldiers were gathered, organized around, and deployed (部署) from castles. In this way castles served both offensive and defensive roles in military operations. Not limited to military (军事的) purposes, castles also served as offices from which the lord would administer control over his kingdom. That is to say, the lord of the land would hold court in his castle. Those that were socially beneath the lord would come to report the affairs of the lands that they governed and pay tribute to the lord. They would address conflicts, handle business, feast, and enjoy festivities, In this way castles served as important social centers in medieval England. Castles also served as symbols of power. Built on important and noticeable sites overlooking the surrounding areas, castles always appeared in the background of many peasants and served as a daily reminder of the lords strength. Now, castles no longer serve their original purposes. However, the remaining castles receive millions of visitors each year from those who wish to experience the glory of a time long passed. 28. The author introduces the topic of the text by ______. A. making an assumption B. giving an example C. making comparison D. giving a definition 29. Why did William the Conqueror build castles? A. He wanted to celebrate his victory. B. He wanted to remind people of his influence. C. He wanted to live peacefully with the English. D. He wanted to use them to his military advantage. 30. Which of the following is a way the lord would adopt to show his power? A. Dealing with conflicts in his castle. B. Building his castle in an obvious place. C. Carrying out social activities in his castle. D. Ordering peasants to live near his castle. 31. What attracts people to visit castles today? A. The history. B. The architecture. C. The beauty. D. The surroundings D Online games are very popular among people. They make a large amount of money and have a large user base, including lots of teenagers. But now, new rules on online games have been introduced, which are aimed at fighting against addiction (成瘾) among underage players. Adult players need to spend most of their time paying attention to work and family, and cannot play games as often as they want. However, underage players have more spare time, but less responsibility and self-control. Children without a clear purpose in life, where there is less family education and school management, might easily become addicted to all kinds of online games and online novels. The most direct impact of an addiction to online games among underage players is on their psychological (心理) health. According to psychologists, people seriously addicted to games can become anxious, bad tempered, and avoid responsibility. However, Chinese parents are more worried that their children will lack interest in studying if they become addicted to online games, as academic success is important for students. Additionally, when their children become addicted to such games, most parents do not know how to deal with the situation. To carry out the new rules to the best effect, more specific issues need to be solved, such as managing foreign online games, ensuring that facial recognition technologies used by games companies have the wanted effect or making sure online game providers can only offer one-hour services to underage players on Saturdays and Sundays. While there are always loopholes (漏洞) in new rules, authorities should act quickly to close them. There is no doubt that online games have harmful effects on young people. It is not acceptable for a large number of teenagers or those even younger, to become addicted to these games. 32. What’s the purpose of the new rules on online games? A. To raise awareness of Internet safety. B. To bring in new computer programs. C. To reduce the grown-up user base. D. To prevent the teenagers’ addiction. 33. Why are underage players addicted to online games more easily? A. They can learn more knowledge on the Internet. B. They have more free time and less self-control. C. They have purposes in life but lack higher education. D. They maintain a sense of curiosity about the Internet. 34. What problem has to be solved to ensure the effect of the new rules? A. How to reduce parents’ anxiety about kids’ study. B. How to find loopholes in the popular online games. C. How to control the service time of online game providers. D. How to invent a facial recognition game for young players. 35. What is the author’s attitude to the new rules ? A. Confused. B. Negative. C. Supportive. D. Uninterested. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How similar are language and music? Language is part of our daily lives, no matter where we live in the world.
