D 【解析】 【分析】本文为应用文。省政府及其合作伙伴提供了许多项目来帮助学生暑期在找到工作，本文介绍了其中一些项目。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Summer Company部分中的Summer Company provides students with hands-on business training and awards of up to $3,000 to start and run their own summer businesses.可知，Summer Company为学生提供实践性的商业培训和高达3000美元的奖励，以启动和经营他们自己的暑期业务。“start and run their own summer businesses”即“为开办新的业务”，这对应B项中的“runn new businesses”，二者是词义之间的转述关系。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Stewardship Youth Ranger Program部分中Who is eligible: Students aged 16 or 17 at time of hire, but not turning 18 before December 31 this year.可知，符合条件的学生是16岁或17岁的学生，但在今年12月31日之前未满18岁。由此得出，这个项目要求年龄在16-17岁之间。故选D。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Summer Employment Opportunities部分中最后一句Some positions require students to be 15 to 24 or up to 29 for persons with a disability.可知，Summer Employment Opportunities有些职位是给残疾人的。故选D。 B Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness(荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000. Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold. They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warming. An avalanche(雪崩) once closed the path, killing 63 people. For many who made it to Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives. But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come. Today, people still come and go — to see where the Canadian gold rush happened. Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City — its present population is 762. 4. What attracted the early settlers to New York City? A. Its business culture. B. Its small population. C. Its geographical position. D. Its favourable climate. 5. What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson? A. Two-thirds of them stayed there. B. One out of five people got rich. C. Almost everyone gave up. D. Half of them died. 6. What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson? A. They found the city too crowded. B. They wanted to try their luck elsewhere. C. They were unable to stand the winter. D. They were short of food. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. The rise and fall of a city. B. The gold rush in Canada. C. Journeys into the wilderness. D. Tourism in Dawson. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Dawson这座城市的发展原因、过程与现状。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River.可知，人们选择在河边或港口设城是因为交通方便，便于做生意。而纽约就是在哈德森河口附近的一个大港口，故纽约吸引早期移民的原因是它的地理位置，故C正确。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.可知，在最初挖黄金的两万人中有4000人变富有，所以是五分之一的人变富了，故B正确。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come.可知，人们离开Dawson的主要原因是听说在Alaska发现了黄金，也就是他们要去别的地方寻找发财的机会。故B正确。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。第一段简要介绍城市发展原因，引出Dawson这一城市的兴起，第二段介绍了该城市兴起的原因，第三段介绍人们选择离开该城市的原因及现在的状况，所以全文围绕Dawson这个城市的发展起伏。故A正确。 【点睛】主旨大意题的解题技巧：一篇文章都是围绕着一个中心思想或一个话题展开的，因此，有的文章中最明显的特点之一是有一个反复出现的中心词，即高频词，也叫做主题词。抓住了它，便容易抓住文章的中心。通读全文可知，文章主要围绕Dawson的发展展开，Dawson反复出现，再根据每一段的段首句可以总结出，文章第一段通过城市发展的原因引出Dawson，第二段介绍Dawson发展的原因，第三段介绍人们选择离开该城市的原因及现在的状况，从而总结出文章的主旨大意。 C Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them. Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over. At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages. Often spoken by many people while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 Languages: the Americas about 1,000, Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6，000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that. Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150). Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival. 8. What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times? A. They developed very fast. B. They were large in number. C. They had similar patters. D. They were closely connected 9. Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2？ A. Complex. B. Advanced. C. Powerful. D. Modern. 10. How many languages are spoken by less than 6, 000 people at present? A. About 6,800 . B. About 3,400 C. About 2,400 D. About 1,200. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. New languages will be created. B. Peoples lifestyles are reflected in languages. C. Human development results in fewer languages. D. Geography determines language evolution. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了随着社会的发展人类语言越来越少及其原因。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit (联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other... when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.可知，当世界以依靠狩猎为生的人组成的时候，小而联系紧密的群落形成了他们彼此之间独立的讲话模式……当世界上的人口数量不到一千万时，语言种类达到了12,000种。由此推知，当时的语言种类很多。故选B。 【9题详解】 猜测词义题。根据文章第二段中的dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.可知，英语、西班牙语和汉语正在快速替代其他语言。由此推知dominant languages意为“强有力的语言”。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的At present, the world has about 6,800 languages.和The median number (中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world’s languages are spoken by fewer people than that. 可知，目前世界上大约有6800种语言，但是讲的人数少于6000人的占一半即3400。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨要义题。根据文章第一段中的主题句Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going.可知，语言的产生和消失进行了几千年，但最近语言产生的少，消失的太多。故选C。 点睛：长难句解读 In recent centuries, trade, industrialisation, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over. 分析：dominant前的and连接两个并列句，all和前面的名词短语trade, industrialisation, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications是同位语。 句意：在最近的几个世纪，贸易、工业化、民族国家的发展和全球义务教育的普及，尤其是过去几十年来，全球化和更好的交流，这些都导致许多语言消失。而且像英语、西班牙语和汉语等主流语言正日益占据主导地位。 D Trapped in a sea of cars on an endless highway, have you ever daydreamed about your car taking off and flying over the road? Imagine if you could just turn a switch and free yourself from the traffic jams! Actually, just a decade and a half after the Wright Brothers took off in their airplane in 1903, other people began chasing the dream of a flying car. The pioneers never managed to develop a reliable flying car, and some even died testing their inventions. However, they proved that a car could be built to fly, and inspired a new group of roadable aircraft enthusiasts. With advances in lightweight material, computer modeling and computer-controlled aircraft, things are changing. After a century of unfulfilled promises, flying cars are just around the corner. Moller’s latest design, the Skycar M400, is designed to take off and land vertically (垂直地) in small spaces. It can reach speeds of 400 mph, and has a range of 900 miles. The fuel mileage will be similar to that of a medium-sized car, getting 20 miles to the gallon. The initial cost of a Skycar will be about $1 million, but once it begins to be mass produced that price could come down to as low as $60,000. The four-seat Skycar is powered by eight engines on the side of the vehicle. If one fails, the other engines can sustain flight. To make the Skycar safe and available to the general public, it is completely controlled by computers using Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites. In case of an accident, the vehicle will release a parachute and airbags to reduce the impact of the crash. The mass availability of flying cars could be very exciting or very scary, depending on how you look at it. If proper safeguards are put in place, they could be the answer to our ever-worsening traffic jams. Flying cars allow us to live hundreds of miles farther from work but make it to the office within a few minutes. 12. Why did the pioneers failed to make a reliable flying car in the past? A. The government wasn’t in favour of the invention. B. They didn’t have modern technology. C. There was no financial aid coming to them. D. Difficulties drove them to give up their dreams. 13. Which aspect of the Skycar M400 does the fourth paragraph focus on? A. Its power. B. Its safety. C. Its size. D. Its usage. 14. According to the author, what role is the flying car most likely to play? A. To reduce traffic accidents. B. To get people amused. C. To avoid traffic jams. D. To promote driving skills. 15. Which of the following can be used as the title of the passage? A. The Future of Cars B. Flying to Work in Your Car C. The Way to Avoid Traffic Jams D. Moller’s Great Invention 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍飞行汽车的性能、装备、各项指标以及其实用性。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“With advances in lightweight material, computer modeling and computer-controlled aircraft, things are changing.(随着轻量化材料、计算机建模和计算机控制飞机的进步，情况正在发生变化)”可推知，先行者们没有制造出实用的飞行汽车是因为没有现代技术。故选B。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“The four-seat Skycar is powered by eight engines on the side of the vehicle. If one fails, the other engines can sustain flight. To make the Skycar safe and available to the general public, it is completely controlled by computers using Global Positioning System(GPS) satellites. In case of an accident, the vehicle will release a parachute and airbags to reduce the impact of the crash.(四座的Skycar由车辆侧面的八个发动机提供动力。如果一个引擎坏了，其他引擎可以维持飞行。为了保证Skycar的安全，公众可以使用它，它完全由使用全球定位系统（GPS）卫星的计算机控制。如果发生事故，车辆将释放降落伞和安全气囊，以减少碰撞的影响)”可知，第四段关注的是Skycar M400的安全方面。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“If proper safeguards are put in place, they could be the answer to our ever-worsening traffic jams.(如果适当的安全措施到位，它们可能是我们日益恶化的交通堵塞的答案)”可知，飞行汽车最有可能发挥的作用是解决交通堵塞的问题。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍飞行汽车的性能、装备、各项指标以及其实用性；结合最后一段“Flying cars allow us to live hundreds of miles farther from work but make it to the office within a few minutes.(飞行汽车使我们可以住在离工作地点数百英里远的地方，但几分钟内就能到达办公室)”可知，B选项“开车去上班”最符合文章标题。故选B。 第二节 (共5 小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，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。 Gratitude (感恩)makes everything more special.

People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness(荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000. Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold. They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warming. An avalanche(雪崩) once closed the path, killing 63 people. For many who made it to Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives. But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come. Today, people still come and go — to see where the Canadian gold rush happened. Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City — its present population is 762. 4. What attracted the early settlers to New York City? A. Its business culture. B. Its small population. C. Its geographical position. D. Its favourable climate. 5. What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson? A. Two-thirds of them stayed there. B. One out of five people got rich. C. Almost everyone gave up. D. Half of them died. 6. What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson? A. They found the city too crowded. B. They wanted to try their luck elsewhere. C. They were unable to stand the winter. D. They were short of food. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. The rise and fall of a city. B. The gold rush in Canada. C. Journeys into the wilderness. D. Tourism in Dawson. C Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them. Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over. At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages. Often spoken by many people while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 Languages: the Americas about 1,000, Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6，000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that. Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150). Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival. 8. What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times? A. They developed very fast. B. They were large in number. C. They had similar patters. D. They were closely connected 9. Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2？ A. Complex. B. Advanced. C. Powerful. D. Modern. 10. How many languages are spoken by less than 6 000 people at present? A. About 6,800 . B. About 3,400 C. About 2,400 D. About 1,200. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. New languages will be created. B. Peoples lifestyles are reflected in languages. C. Human development results in fewer languages. D. Geography determines language evolution. D Trapped in a sea of cars on an endless highway, have you ever daydreamed about your car taking off and flying over the road? Imagine if you could just turn a switch and free yourself from the traffic jams! Actually, just a decade and a half after the Wright Brothers took off in their airplane in 1903, other people began chasing the dream of a flying car. The pioneers never managed to develop a reliable flying car, and some even died testing their inventions. However, they proved that a car could be built to fly, and inspired a new group of roadable aircraft enthusiasts. With advances in lightweight material, computer modeling and computer-controlled aircraft, things are changing. After a century of unfulfilled promises, flying cars are just around the corner. Moller’s latest design, the Skycar M400, is designed to take off and land vertically (垂直地) in small spaces. It can reach speeds of 400 mph, and has a range of 900 miles. The fuel mileage will be similar to that of a medium-sized car, getting 20 miles to the gallon. The initial cost of a Skycar will be about $1 million, but once it begins to be mass produced that price could come down to as low as $60,000. The four-seat Skycar is powered by eight engines on the side of the vehicle. If one fails, the other engines can sustain flight. To make the Skycar safe and available to the general public, it is completely controlled by computers using Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites. In case of an accident, the vehicle will release a parachute and airbags to reduce the impact of the crash. The mass availability of flying cars could be very exciting or very scary, depending on how you look at it. If proper safeguards are put in place, they could be the answer to our ever-worsening traffic jams. Flying cars allow us to live hundreds of miles farther from work but make it to the office within a few minutes. 12. Why did the pioneers failed to make a reliable flying car in the past? A. The government wasn’t in favour of the invention. B. They didn’t have modern technology. C. There was no financial aid coming to them. D. Difficulties drove them to give up their dreams. 13. Which aspect of the Skycar M400 does the fourth paragraph focus on? A. Its power. B. Its safety. C. Its size. D. Its usage. 14. According to the author, what role is the flying car most likely to play? A. To reduce traffic accidents. B. To get people amused. C. To avoid traffic jams. D. To promote driving skills. 15. Which of the following can be used as the title of the passage? A. The Future of Cars B. Flying to Work in Your Car C. The Way to Avoid Traffic Jams D.
