答案 1—5 ACBCA 6—10 CBCBC
11—15 ABACB 16—20 CBABA
第二部分 阅读
第一节
A
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇应用文。文章主要对鸟类图书进行了推荐。
21.C 细节理解题。本题问“价格第二高的图书是由谁完成的插图?”。根据全文图书定价可知,Around the World in 80 Birds(22美元)是价格第二高的图书,根据Around the World in 80 Birds部分中的“beautiful illustrations from Ryuto Miyake”可知,该图书插图是由Ryuto Miyake完成的,故C项正确。
22.C 细节理解题。根据A World on the Wing部分中的“at the forefront of research into bird migration...a bird migration crisis has become a conservation success story”可知,如果读者关注迁徙鸟类生存问题的话,可以阅读A World on the Wing,故C项正确。
23.A 细节理解题。根据Galapagos Crusoes:A Year Alone with the Birds部分中的“This is their clever and amusing account”可知,该书最大的特点就是其充满智慧而又有趣的描述,故A项“它幽默的描写”正确。A项用“humorous description”同义转换了原文中的“amusing account”。
B
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。作者童年时期对一款名为746 Norfolk & Western的玩具火车十分痴迷,但是爷爷没那么多钱给自己买。成年之后,作者对玩具火车的热情已退,但是见到746玩具火车后作者再次疯狂,作者将其带回家,儿时的一切仿佛又回来了。
24.D 推理判断题。根据前三段中对746玩具火车的描述“...seemed to have cast a spell on me...the amazing 746”可知,在作者的眼中,746玩具火车完美无缺,美的无可比拟,故D项正确。beyond compare“无与伦比”。
25.D 观点态度题。本题问“当作者收到Lionel塑料火车时,他的感觉如何?”。根据第三段中的“SIX INCHES shorter than the 746 and had no headlight,no smoker or no sound”可知,作者对这个玩具不甚满意,再结合该段最后的“that was the best that my grandfather could give me”可知,作者对这个玩具仍心存感激。由此可以推断,作者对这个玩具有一点不满意,故D项正确。visibly relieved“明显松了一口气”;terribly shameful“非常丢人”。
26.C 细节理解题。根据题干中的“the author in his 30s”可快速锁定第四段。根据第四段中的“My interest in toy trains,I firmly believed,had faded...The 746 was never called to mind”可以看出,作者对玩具火车的兴趣减退,也从不去想746玩具火车,故C项正确。
·93·27.B 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,本文讲到了作者对童年时期喜欢的746玩具火车的回忆以及成年之后买到这种玩具的感受。746玩具火车是贯穿全文的线索;根据第三段中的“that was the best that my grandfather could give me at that time”和最后一段中的“as if I could see the soft light in my grandfather's eyes and hear his cheerful laughter”可以看出,玩具火车不仅展现了作者对火车的热爱,还展现了作者与祖父之间的感情联系。因此,B项“The 746:Childhood Memories of Love”最适合作本文的标题。
C
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文。一项新的研究宣称动物机器人可以给儿童提供和真实宠物至少一样有效的治疗效果。作者对此发表了自己的看法。
28.A 文章类型题。根据第一段中的“According to a new study,animal robots may be just as effective ...I can tell you that this is quite a bold claim”和最后一段中的“Maybe one day we'll all have our own personal robot pets ...But until then,I'll stick with my trusty furry friends”可知,本文是作者针对一项新的研究结果发表的个人意见,故A项正确。
29.D 推理判断题。结合上下文可知,“this”指的是上文中提到的新的研究发现,即动物机器人可以给儿童提供和真实宠物至少一样有效的治疗效果。结合第二段中的“can a robot give you that ...I think not”可知,作者认为动物机器人无法提供真实宠物带给你的那种体验。由此可以推断,作者之所以称研究结果为“a bold claim”是因为作者认为现阶段动物机器人还无法取代真实宠物,故D项正确。bold“冒失的,鲁莽的”。
30.B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“they actually spent more time interacting with the robot ...some robot dances or robot jokes maybe,to hold the kids' attention for that long”可以看出,研究结果表明孩子们实际上和动物机器人互动时间更长,作者认为机器人是通过做一些令人印象深刻的把戏、一些机器人舞蹈或机器人笑话来保持儿童更长时间的注意力,故B项正确。
31.A 推理判断题。根据最后一段的首句“So ...I am open to the idea of introducing animal robots into therapy programs”可知,本题的解析信息应定位到文章的倒数第二段。作者认为考虑治疗犬的健康很重要,去医院对它们来说可能会充满压力且令它们疲惫,人们应该探索所有的选择,让治疗经历对动物和病人都尽可能积极和愉快。再结合最后一段的“Maybe one day we'll all have our own personal robot pets that can provide us with just as much love and companionship as the real thing”可推断,作者之所以对在治疗中使用机器人持开放态度,是因为作者认为机器人可以分担一些治疗宠物的工作,故A项正确。
D
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。科技的发展离不开预言!正是预言促使一个又一个新的发明诞生,从而改变了人类生活。
32.D 推理判断题。根据第一段“Here, you always need to think about the future, or else you won't have the chance to be in the digital age.”和第二段最后一句“All these inventions were just a prediction by their inventors, but they later, went on to become a part of our lives. Similar predictions can be made for the future.”可知,作者认为我们应继续预测未来。
33.B 细节理解题。根据第三段“For example, how about having humanlike robots that understand our instructions by simply speaking to them? We can talk with these robots regularly and simply instruct them to perform a particular task.”可知,所谓的类人机器人能理解人类的语言。
34.A 推理判断题。根据第四段“So what about having a waste recycling machine that produces notebooks? Yes, I'm not talking about the regular recycling machines that give us raw materials we need to put to effective use. If we build recycling machines that produce a particular product out of the waste, it'll do much help to the environment as well.”可知,作者认为垃圾回收机是可以实现的。
35.C 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Here, you always need to think about the future, or else you won't have the chance to be in the digital age.”和最后一段“This list can go on and on. Our imagination has no limits and so does technology. Who knows? Maybe one of these ideas may become a reality in the near future!”可知,作者认为预言可以促进发明,并且相信预言有一天能被实现。由此可判断全文旨在说明预言对发明的影响。
第二节
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。每个人都想拥有健康的生活方式,练习瑜伽就是最好的选择之一。这篇文章具体阐述了练瑜伽对我们身心的几点好处。
36.D 空前讲“瑜伽因有助于改善平衡和灵活性,以及有助于让人获得平静和放松而享有当之无愧的声誉”,这是介绍瑜伽的好处;空后说“这里有更多关于练瑜伽是如何成为一种完整的身心锻炼的消息”,所以空处也应是关于瑜伽的好处。故选D。
37.E 空前讲“做瑜伽确实能降低皮质醇水平。”空后讲“它还可以增加你对高脂肪、高糖食物和饮料的欲望,同时减少你的肌肉量”。故空处应是关于皮质醇水平高给我们带来的危害,因为空后的It要指代前边的名词,并且also也是一种语意上的递进,所以E项符合语境。
38.B 本空考查概括小标题,下面整段都在描写练瑜伽的人往往会注意到自己吃的食物量,自己吃了什么类型的食物,以及吃这些食物的影响。所以B项“合适的运动,合理的饮食”最能概况本段段意。
39.G 本段小标题是“让减肥持续下去”。空后讲“这可以通过提高对悲伤的容忍度、正念和自我同情来实现”。代词This就应指代前面提到的减肥,所以G项“最近的研究表明,瑜伽可能有助于改善长期减肥效果”,既承接小标题又引出下文,符合语境。
40.C 空前讲“无论你的体重、年龄、身体状况或背景如何,现在有很多适合你的瑜伽风格”。C项“每个人、每个身体都可以从某种风格中受益”承接上文,符合语境。
·94·第三部分 语言运用
第一节
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者是一个很害羞的学生,总是坐在教室后排生怕被老师叫到,在跳水的时候也总是躲在队伍末尾。一天,老师宣布期末成绩根据屈身跳水来打分。看着同学们身轻如燕地完成动作,作者也克服恐惧,完成了自己的第一次跳水。作者觉得以后无论遇到什么,都要敢于尝试。
41.C 根据上文中的“The schools in Massachusetts were thought the best in the country”可知,马萨诸塞州的学校被认为是最好的。因此“an Olympic size swimming pool”便是最好的证明(proof),故选C。
42.A 根据下文中的“sat in the back...so I would not have to practice the dives”可知,作者是一个害羞的(shy)孩子。autonomous“自治的”;consistent“一致的”;dull“无聊的”。
43.B 根据上文中的“I was quite __42__ in regular classes and sat in the back”可知,作者很害羞,因此平时上课坐在后排是为了避免被老师要求(called upon)朗读。call in“叫来;打电话来(工作单位等)”;pull up“慢慢停下”;pull apart“拆散”。
44.D 此处考查词汇复现。根据下文中的“I trembled as the line to the diving board”可知,作者总是在跳板前排起的队伍(line)末尾排着,从而可以不必非得练习跳水。
45.D 根据常识和空后的“we would be graded for our final on the most difficult dive”可知,此处表示老师宣布(announced)了最难的跳水将计入期末考试的成绩。
46.B 根据上文可知,作者是一个害羞的学生。结合下文中的“As I watched,each student seemed to perform the dive”可知,排队的每个学生都在练习,因此,随着队伍越来越短(shortened),也就是快轮到作者的时候,作者开始颤抖了。
47.A 根据下文中的“They just jumped...like an arrow for entry into the water”可知,每个同学似乎不费力气(effortlessly)就完成了最难的动作。
48.C 根据常识可知,同学们增加一个跳跃是为了提升高度(height),以便完成屈身跳水。
49.D 根据常识和空后的比喻“like an arrow for entry into the water”可知,同学们在跳水之前都将身体伸直了(straightened)。stick“粘住”。
50.B 此处呼应上文中的“I trembled as the line to the diving board __46__”,由此可见,作者当时应该处于一种震惊(shock)害怕的状态。
51.C 根据下文中的“I barely finished as I had __53__ in my mind”可以推断,轮到作者的时候,作者发现这个跳跃是能够完成的(doable),并顺利完成了。
52.A 根据上文中作者紧张的状态可以推断,作者在完成跳水的时候,心在怦怦直跳(pounding)。
53.A 根据上文中的“all of a sudden I saw these four steps as __51__”可以推断,作者在跳水前对跳水的四个步骤做了设想(pictured)。
54.C 根据下文中的“It was awesome to think that I just learned my first dive”可知,尽管作者得分不高,但作者能够成功完成自己的第一次跳水,这足以让作者感到开心(pleased)。
55.D 此处考查逻辑关系。根据前后句的句意可知,前后句都是作者在完成跳水后的感想。此处表示“令人惊叹的是,我刚刚学会了我的第一次跳水;与此同时,我相信无论将来遇到什么,我都会先尝试一下”。
第二节
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中医是中国医疗体系的重要组成部分,并在全球范围内获得了越来越多的认可。
56.has been 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。 根据for centuries可知,此处应用现在完成时;主语为practice,助动词应用第三人称单数。
57.an 考查冠词。 component意为“组成部分”,为可数名词,此处表示泛指,essential的发音以元音音素开头,应用不定冠词an。
58.recognition 考查名词。 此处应用名词作has gained的宾语。
59.which 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,在从句中作主语,修饰整个句子,应用关系代词which。
60.on/upon 考查介词。 place emphasis on/upon意为“重视”,为固定搭配。
61.doubtful 考查形容词。“be doubtful about...”意为“对……持怀疑态度”,为固定搭配。
62.has been accepted 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。此处描述的动作发生在过去,但对现在产生结果或影响,应用现在完成时;动词accept和主语构成被动关系;主语为practice,助动词应用第三人称单数。
63.used 考查非谓语动词。在when引导的时间状语从句中,主语和主句主语相同时,从句可以省略主语和系动词,动词use和主语构成被动关系,应用过去分词形式。
64.offering 考查非谓语动词。在with的复合结构中,动词offer和逻辑主语experts构成主动关系,应用现在分词形式。
65.to grow 考查非谓语动词。 be definite to do sth意为“肯定做某事”,为固定搭配。

To enrich students' knowledge of modern science and technology,our school held a variety of exhibitions and lectures, such as “Tiangong Class”,which were both informative and inspiring.There were many handson activities as well,among which the most popular ones were water rockets and 3D printing.
The annual festival proved hugely rewarding,broadening our horizons and promoting our creativity.

【参考范文】
In case of emergency,I took a life buoy(救生圈) and hurried to the pond.I sighed with relief when I saw her sitting by the pond with Captain Flint pacing around her. Seeing me,Sophie said,“Mommy, I'm making a ship for my Captain Flint.”Several small branches were carefully arranged, and some leaves tied them together.“But it still doesn't look like a real ship,” Sophie murmured frustratedly. I raised the life buoy, adding,“We can make it the body of the ship and the branches the board of it.”Her eyes got relit with joy and we worked together to make a perfect ship.
Captain Flint's ship would start its first sail. We put Captain Flint gently on the board, and used a long branch to control its direction. It seemed quite excited about its first sail,flapping its wings joyfully.“Go,Captain Flint!”Sophie cheered.“Mommy,you know,that's Duty NO.3 to accompany my baby to finish its first adventure.”She looked at me with a dazzling smile.I was happy that she understood and shouldered what is called responsibility.I gave her a bear hug,whispering,“You are my pride,honey.”

Back in 1958,I was crazy about the 746 Norfolk & Western. The smooth bulletnosed engine with its orange and yellow lines and shiny streamlined black tender(煤水车) seemed to have cast a spell on me.
Together the engine and tender measured a little shy of 2 feet—enormous by the toy train standards of the day.Even better,the 746 had a working headlight and smoker,and its tender sang high.
Unfortunately,the amazing 746 also had an amazing price—$50,equal to about $450 today.That was far more than my grandfather could afford.Instead, I had to be content with his little Lionel plastic,which was SIX INCHES shorter than the 746 and had no headlight, no smoker or no sound ! But that was the best that my grandfather could give me at that time.
Years passed,and I was in my 30s.Complicated sound systems and computer controls dominated toy trains.I never gave a look.My interest in toy trains,I firmly believed,had faded,so did my admiration for the 746,since my grandfather was not with me.The 746 was never called to mind.On an ordinary day,however,I happened to see the 746 outside the window of a train show.Just one look,I could not look away.Childhood memories that I tried to hide in the depths of my heart raced through my mind,happy or sad.
That day I took the 746 home and placed it in the centre of the room,and let my childhood dream sing its way around me.Smoke rose out from the engine and the soft song sounded from its tender.It seemed as if I could see the soft light in my grandfather's eyes and hear his cheerful laughter.
24.Which best describes the 746 in the author's eyes?
A.It was taller than the author. B.Its price rose from $50 to $450.
C.It was the largest train in 1958. D.Its beauty was beyond compare.
25.How did the author feel when receiving his little Lionel plastic?
A.Visibly relieved. B.Really excited.
C.Terribly shameful. D.Slightly unsatisfied.
26.What happened to the author in his 30s?
A.He left his grandfather alone. B.He didn't favor the 746 at all.
C.He didn't attempt to recall the past. D.He admired advanced toy trains.
27.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A.Toy Trains:Childhood in History
B.The 746:Childhood Memories of Love
C.Toy Trains:Memories of a Generation
D.The 746:A Perfect Gift from My Grandfather
C
Well,well,well.It looks like robots are now coming for our beloved furry friends.According to a new study,animal robots may be just as effective,if not better,at providing therapeutic (治疗的) benefits for children as real pets.As someone who has both interacted with real dogs and robots,I can tell you that this is quite a bold claim.
Sure,robots may have some benefits over real dogs.They can work for longer hours and won't cause allergies (过敏) or pass on diseases.But can a robot give you that wetnosed,tailwagging,slobberfilled experiences that a real dog can?I think not.
Now,I'm not saying that robots don't have their place in therapy.In fact,I can see how an animal robot could be helpful in certain situations where a real dog might not be possible.But let's not go replacing all the good boys and girls with robots just yet.
As for the study,it's interesting to see that while the kids said they loved reallife dogs better,they actually spent more time interacting with the robot.I can only imagine that it was doing some pretty impressive tricks,some robot dances or robot jokes maybe,to hold the kids' attention for that long.
In all seriousness,though,I do think it's important to consider the welfare of therapy dogs.Visiting hospitals can be stressful and tiring for them,and we should be exploring all options to make therapy experiences as positive and enjoyable as possible for both the animals and the patients.
So,while I may not be ready to trade in my furry friends for robots just yet,I am open to the idea of introducing animal robots into therapy programs.Who knows?Maybe one day we'll all have our own personal robot pets that can provide us with just as much love and companionship as the real thing.But until then,I'll stick with my trusty furry friends.
28.What is the text?
A.A response to a recent study. B.A summary of a scientific study.
C.A news report of a new invention. D.A review on a medical experiment.
29.What does the writer mean by saying “this is quite a bold claim” in paragraph 1?
A.The new study is quite a breakthrough.
B.His personal experience supports the study.
C.Robots have no therapeutic benefits to children.
D.Robots cannot replace real pets at the present stage.
30.Which of the following is a finding of the new study?
A.The kids preferred robot pets to real dogs.
B.Robots kept the kids' interest for a longer time.
C.The kids' concentration was effectively improved.
D.Robots had more tricks to impress kids than real dogs.
31.Why is the author open to the idea of using robots in therapy?
A.They can share some of therapy pets' work.
B.They can guarantee the welfare of therapy pets.
C.They provide us with just as much love as real pets.
D.They are better at releasing patients' stress and tiredness.
D
We've heard people say that we shouldn't worry too much about the future. But this saying doesn't hold true in the technological world. Here, you always need to think about the future, or else you won't have the chance to be in the digital age. There are so many new inventions that come up daily, which help in making our lives better and easier.
The iPod we use daily was once a farfetched thought of Mr. Jobs, which has become a reality today. Similarly, when television was launched, we thought nothing could beat this invention. Then came cable television, and now it's the age of digital television. Similarly, until a few years ago, 3D was limited to movies, but today, we have 3D blueprints, 3D graphics, and 3D television sets as well. All these inventions were just a prediction by their inventors, but they later, went on to become a part of our lives. Similar predictions can be made for the future.
For example, how about having humanlike robots that understand our instructions by simply speaking to them? We can talk with these robots regularly and simply instruct them to perform a particular task. If you want tea, you can simply require your robot to make it for you. These robots can be useful in industrial fields as well. For example, you can simply ask the robot to switch on the manufacturing line.
If waste keeps increasing, the future will see many problems related to pollution.So what about having a waste recycling machine that produces notebooks? Yes, I'm not talking about the regular recycling machines that give us raw materials we need to put to effective use. If we build recycling machines that produce a particular product out of the waste, it'll do much help to the environment as well.
This list can go on and on. Our imagination has no limits and so does technology. Who knows? Maybe one of these ideas may become a reality in the near future!
32.What should we do according to the author?
A.Take the future less seriously. B.Use 3D technology more widely.
C.Base new inventions on experience. D.Keep making predictions for the future.
33.What can so called humanlike robots do according to the text?
A.They can talk to themselves. B.They can understand human words.
C.They can offer the users instructions. D.They can invent something for humans.
34.What does the author think of the waste recycling machine?
A.It is achievable. B.It is profitable. C.It is affordable. D.It is impractical.
35.What is the text mainly about?
A.The far future of technology. B.Ways of making predictions.
C.Effects of predictions on inventions. D.The significance of human imagination.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
From the moment my husband brought home a box of six chickens from Tractor Supply Company,our nineyearold,Sophie,didn't let them out of her sight.She named them Trixie,Beauty,Sweet Pea,Speedie,Captain Flint, and Adrian (we were reading Treasure Island and watching Rocky at the time).
Sophie made a promise that she would take good care of them and took at least one chicken everywhere we let her.We were content with this; after all,it was a good way to make her dutiful and responsible.So when we wouldn't let them sleep in her bed,she was very upset.She,actually,argued about this issue again and again,claiming that it was Duty NO.1 to accompany her baby chickens to sleep.Later,we made a compromise that we would allow one inside at a time if Sophie immediately cleaned up the room after the visit.
On a special festival,she dressed as a chicken and convinced us it was the turn of Trixie and Sweet Pea to come with her to get candies from the neighbors—that was Duty NO.2 to accompany her babies to have fun.The reactions from neighbors were quite amusing.“Wait, are these real chickens you're holding?”“Of course!They're my babies,and I am the mother,” Sophie answered excitedly.Trixie and Sweet Pea cooed(咕咕地叫) the whole time,seeming to make response.
One hot day,I buried myself in piles of work when Sophie rushed into the room, asking “Mommy, can I take Captain Flint to the pond?”To be frank,I didn't quite catch what she said but still nodded,even without taking my eyes off the screen.She jumped to cheer.“Captain Flint, let's head for the pond now!”“Coo,coo.”Then they rushed out of the room.
Several minutes later,I suddenly realized that Sophie just went to the pond with a chicken! Could Sophie swim? No!!!Could the chicken swim? No!!! Could anything unexpected happen?
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
In case of emergency,I took a life buoy(救生圈) and hurried to the pond.________________________________________________________________________
