Cherry Blossom (樱花) Festival Home to some 350,000 Yoshino cherry trees, Macon is the self-described “cherry blossom capital of the world”. Each March, it’s covered by pink blossoms. The local calendar is packed with events, too, including the unmissable Wiener Dog Race, the Pink Pancake Breakfast, and the Cherry Blossom Parade with floats, marching bands, and more. Skagit Valley Tulip (郁金香) Festival The best part of this month-long April festival is visiting the valley’s tulip farms. You can take in sweeping views of the tulip fields on two wheels through Tulip Country Bike Tours. Get prepared for particularly rainy spring here. La Conner, an hour north of Seattle, offers a charming starting point for tulip spotting. Mackinac Island Lilac (丁香) Festival This no-cars-allowed island in Lake Huron kicks off summer with a 10-day celebration of lilacs in June. There’s a little bit of everything on the calendar, from a bicycle race and a 10-km run to a movie screening at Fort Mackinac. Visitors can also join walking tours to learn more about the island’s gardens and flowers. Many visitors think the best way to take in the blooming lilac bushes is on two wheels. Crested Butte Wildflower Festival Founded in 1986 and now spread over 10 days each July, this festival celebrates the wildflowers blooming in and around Colorado’s Gunnison Valley. Attend guided walks and hikes ranging from beginner to advanced levels. The higher you hike, the more wildflowers you’ll see. Good spots include Washington Gulch, Deer Creek Trail, West Maroon Pass, and Trail 403. 1. What can visitors do during Cherry Blossom Festival? A. Watch an exciting dog race. B. Celebrate for a whole month. C. Take part in a local bicycle tour. D. Enjoy special breakfast for free. 2. What do Skagit Valley Tulip Festival and Mackinac Island Lilac Festival have in common? A. They take place in the same month. B. They share the same starting point. C. Their visitors prefer coming in rainy season. D. Their visitors are encouraged to tour by bike. 3. What do we know about Trail 403? A. It was built in 1986. B. It’s close to West Maroon Pass. C. It’s on high ground. D. It suits the beginner hikers. 【答案】1. A 2. D 3. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国四个不同花卉节。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Cherry Blossom (樱花) Festival部分中“The local calendar is packed with events, too, including the unmissable Wiener Dog Race, the Pink Pancake Breakfast, and the Cherry Blossom Parade with floats, marching bands, and more.(当地的日历上也有很多活动，包括不容错过的维也纳犬赛、粉红煎饼早餐和有花车、军乐队等的樱花游行。)”可知，游客在樱花节可观看赛狗活动。故选A项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Skagit Valley Tulip (郁金香) Festival介绍中的第二句“You can take in sweeping views of the tulip fields on two wheels through Tulip Country Bike Tours.(通过郁金香乡村自行车之旅，您可以乘坐两轮车欣赏郁金香田的全景。)”可知，你可以骑上单车来尽情欣赏郁金香花田的壮丽景色。根据Mackinac Island Lilac (丁香) Festival介绍中的最后一句“Many visitors think the best way to take in the blooming lilac bushes is on two wheels.(许多游客认为，欣赏盛开的丁香丛的最佳方式是骑在两个轮子上。)”可知，欣赏盛开的丁香花丛，最佳方式莫过于骑行游览。由此可知，这两个节日都鼓励游客通过骑行来游览美景。故选D项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据Crested Butte Wildflower Festival部分中“The higher you hike, the more wildflowers you’ll see. Good spots include Washington Gulch, Deer Creek Trail, West Maroon Pass, and Trail 403.(你走得越高，看到的野花就越多。好去处包括华盛顿峡谷、鹿溪步道、西马龙山口和403步道。)”可推知，403步道位于高地。故选C项。 B When Mia DaPonte was young, she learned that her mother had become an Open Water Diver. Mia decided to become a diver, too. But the youngest one that can start training as a diver is 10 years old. Once Mia came of age, she got serious. First, she got her Open Water Diver certificate (合格证书). Mia lives in Rhode Island, where the oceans are cold, and people usually can’t see very far. But she didn’t let that discourage her. It’s a rule that when one is diving, they should always have a companion — a second person working with them when diving. Mia’s mother decided to take all the courses Mia was taking to be her companion. Mia completed 78 dives — far more than the 50 needed to become a Master Scuba Diver. But Mia had to wait for her last two courses — Advanced Open Water Diver and Rescue Diver. That’s because one has to be at least 12 years old to earn these certificates. Over the week before her birthday, Mia did most of the training required for the last two courses and she passed the Advanced Open Water Diver course on her birthday. The next day, when she was officially 12, Mia finished the Rescue Diver course. That was not getting along without difficulties. Mia did three dives in one day, including one deep dive down to 17.5 meters and she had to made her night dive. The hardest part of the course was showing that she could raise an injured grow-up diver to the surface and take the steps needed to help restart their breath. Mia says she feels proud to have become a Master Scuba Diver. But she doesn’t plan to stop there. She’s interested in getting more training as a diver. In the future, she hopes to become a marine (海的) biologist. 4. What made Mia’s mother take the same diving courses? A. Improving her own diving skills. B. Setting a good example for Mia. C. Being Mia’s diving partner as required. D. Watching over Mia’s training process. 5. Why was Mia unable to become a Master Scuba Diver according to paragraph 3? A. She couldn’t see far in the sea. B. She didn’t have a companion. C. She was too young to attend related courses. D. She did’t finish the dives that were needed. 6. What challenged Mia most about the Rescue Diver course? A. Diving deep to 17.5 meters. B. Performing first aid on adults. C. Finishing three dives one day. D. Making night diving by herself. 7. Which of the following can best describe Mia? A. Curious and warm-hearted. B. Determined and open-minded. C. Serious and easy-going. D. Tough and strong-willed. 【答案】4. C 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了米娅・达蓬特从小受母亲影响立志成为潜水员，在达到年龄要求后克服困难完成潜水课程，最终成为潜水大师的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“It’s a rule that when one is diving, they should always have a companion — a second person working with them when diving. Mia’s mother decided to take all the courses Mia was taking to be her companion. (潜水时必须有同伴——这是规则。Mia的母亲决定学习Mia参加的所有课程，以便成为她的同伴。)”可知，Mia的母亲学习相同的潜水课程是为了满足潜水时必须有同伴的要求，成为Mia的潜水伙伴。故选C项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Mia completed 78 dives — far more than the 50 needed to become a Master Scuba Diver. But Mia had to wait for her last two courses — Advanced Open Water Diver and Rescue Diver. That’s because one has to be at least 12 years old to earn these certificates. (米娅完成了78次潜水——远超过成为潜水大师所需的50次。但米娅不得不等待她的最后两门课程：高级开放水域潜水员和救援潜水员课程。这是因为要获得这些证书，必须至少年满12岁。)”可知，Mia无法立即成为Master Scuba Diver的原因是年龄不足，无法参加相关课程。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“The hardest part of the course was showing that she could raise an injured grow-up diver to the surface and take the steps needed to help restart their breath. (课程中最难的部分是证明她能够将一名受伤的成年潜水员救出水面，并采取必要措施帮助其恢复呼吸。)”可知，对Mia来说最大的挑战是对成年人实施急救。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Once Mia came of age, she got serious. (一旦米娅到了法定年龄，她便认真对待此事。)”，第三段“Mia completed 78 dives — far more than the 50 needed to become a Master Scuba Diver. (米娅完成了78次潜水——远超过成为潜水大师所需的50次。”以及最后一段“But she doesn’t plan to stop there. She’s interested in getting more training as a diver. (但她并未打算就此止步，她对接受更多潜水训练抱有兴趣。)”可知，从Mia从小立志潜水、克服寒冷海水和能见度低的困难、超额完成潜水次数、在年龄限制下坚持等待并完成高难度课程等描述，可以看出她是一个意志坚强且坚韧不拔的人。故选D项。 C Britain was once covered with rainforests, known as Celtic rainforests or Atlantic woodland. The temperate (温带的) rainforests only occur in places close to the sea with high rainfall, high humidity (湿度) and low variations in temperature and full of plants and animals. The Celtic rainforests used to spread out all across the wetter areas of the country’s west. But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. By the start of the 20th century, Britain had become the least-wooded country in Europe, with only small parts remaining in western coastal rainforest areas. There’s a new rainforest coming back to Britain right now. A movement is underway across Britain to recover these forgotten ecosystems. And in Devon, the first step towards achieving that has just been completed. With the help of over 100 local volunteers, more than 2,500 native trees have been planted at Devon Wildlife Trust’s Bowden Pillars site, not far from the town of Totnes. It’s hoped that another 4,500 oak, rowan, alder, hazel, birch, willow and holly trees will be planted by the end of this winter and over the coming decades, and that they’ll grow to form a thriving (欣欣向荣的) temperate rainforest. The recovery programme, led by The Wildlife Trusts, is happening across other parts of the country, including Cornwall and Pembrokeshire and has been boosted by a significant £38 million of funding from an insurance company. Claire Inglis, a nature reserve officer at Devon Wildlife Trust, said, “The full grown temperate rainforest will take several decades to become established, but the advantages for nature will be much swifter. The mix of young trees planted among grasslands and hedges (树篱), along with our promise not to use chemicals, will be better for local butterflies and bees, along with local birds such as yellowhammers and barn owls. It will be fascinating to see how it develops.” 8. What was mainly responsible for Britain’s lost Celtic rainforest in the past? A. Low temperature. B. Animal farming. C. Plant variation. D. High humidity. 9. What can we say about the movement across Britain? A. It’s worrying. B. It’s promising. C. It’s unrealistic. D. It’s uncontrollable. 10. What does the underlined word “swifter” in the last paragraph mean? A. Further. B. More unlikely. C. Quicker. D. More costly. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. A Story of Destruction About Britain’s Lost Rainforests B. The Challenges of Reviving Celtic Rainforests in Britain C. A Nationwide Effort to Revive Lost Rainforests in Britain D. The Truth of the Disappearance of Britain’s Celtic Rainforests 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了英国曾经覆盖着被称为凯尔特雨林或大西洋林地的热带雨林，后来因放牧被砍伐，如今英国正开展一项全国性的运动来恢复这些被遗忘的生态系统，并介绍了该运动的进展、资金支持及带来的好处等。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. (但几个世纪以来，这些古老的林地后来被清理并变成了放牧牛羊的草地)”可知，英国凯尔特雨林消失的主要原因是畜牧业的发展。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“A movement is underway across Britain to recover these forgotten ecosystems. (一场恢复这些被遗忘的生态系统的运动正在英国各地展开)”以及后文提到的植树计划和资金支持，可以看出这一运动充满希望。故选B项。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段“The full grown temperate rainforest will take several decades to become established, but the advantages for nature will be much swifter. (成熟的温带雨林需要几十年的时间才能形成，但是对自然的好处会更swifter)”，由but可知，前后形成转折，前面说需要的时间长，后面应表示好处来得快，所以“swifter”意为“更快的”。故选C项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The Celtic rainforests used to spread out all across the wetter areas of the country’s west. But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. (凯尔特雨林曾一度遍布英国西部较为湿润的地区。但在过去的几个世纪里，这些古老的林地逐渐被砍伐清理，转而变成了用于放牧牛羊的牧场)”以及结合全文内容可知，文章开篇提到英国凯尔特雨林的消失，随后重点介绍了当前全国范围内恢复雨林的努力，包括植树计划、资金支持以及预期的生态效益，因此，最佳标题应涵盖“恢复雨林”这一核心内容。故选C项。 D Philadelphia, often referred to as Philly, is a major city located along the Delaware River in Pennsylvania, a state in the northeastern United States. Founded in the 1680s by an Englishman William Penn, who also planned its layout (布局), the city was named Philadelphia — a word Penn understood to mean “city of brotherly love” in Greek. Philadelphia served as the nation’s capital from 1785 to 1790. Earlier, it was the capital of the American colonies (殖民地) during most of the Revolutionary War against Britain. Philadelphia became the central meeting place for the “Founding Fathers” who created the United States government. The buildings where they worked can be seen today in an area called the Old City, or Independence National Historical Park. The main building is Independence Hall. That was where colonial leaders declared independence and later debated the creation of a government. Near the park stands National Liberty (自由) Museum, housing over ninety paintings and sculptures, which represent the idea that liberty is a freedom that is easily broken. Several blocks away lies National Constitution (美国宪法) Center, a privately operated nonprofit museum that opened its doors in Philadelphia on July 4, 2003. The museum was created to increase public recognition of the Constitution, its history and its importance today. Visitors here are presented with the idea that the most important part of American constitutional democracy (立宪民主) is the individual citizen. Philadelphia also offers plenty for visitors who are less concerned about history and more concerned about their stomachs. There are many food choices for foodies, including a typical sandwich — the Philly cheesesteak, usually made of thin pieces of meat covered with cheese, offered with onions and other toppings and served on a long roll. And where can the best Philly cheesestaak be found? That question is the subject of much debate—one way to settle it: try them all and decide for yourself! 12. What did William Penn do with Philadelphia? A. He designed it in person. B. He named it with his language. C. He ruined it and rebuilt it. D. He brought in Greek traditions. 13. What does paragraph 2 focus on about Philadelphia? A. Its historical unrest. B. Its main attractions. C. Its architecture style. D. Its historical place. 14. Why was National Constitution Center founded? A. To increase profits for a private museum. B. To honor the makers of the Constitution. C. To educate visitors about the Constitution. D. To collect opinions from ordinary citizens. 15. What does the author want to do through the debate in the last paragraph? A. Doubt the local food. B. Make an invitation to visitors. C. Introduce a food recipe. D. Remind visitors to watch out for danger. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了费城历史地位、主要景点以及美食特色。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Founded in the 1680s by an Englishman William Penn, who also planned its layout (布局), the city was named Philadelphia—a word Penn understood to mean ‘city of brotherly love’ in Greek. (这座城市由英国人威廉·佩恩于17世纪80年代创建，他还规划了城市的布局，并将其命名为费城 —— 佩恩认为这个词在希腊语中是‘博爱的城市’的意思)”可知，威廉·佩恩亲自设计了费城的布局。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Philadelphia served as the nation’s capital from 1785 to 1790. Earlier, it was the capital of the American colonies (殖民地) during most of the Revolutionary War against Britain. Philadelphia became the central meeting place for the ‘Founding Fathers’ who created the United States government. (费城在1785年至1790年期间曾是美国首都。早些时候，在反对英国的大多数独立战争期间，它是美国殖民地的首都。费城成为创建美国政府的‘开国元勋’的中央集会地)”以及下文对费城历史地位的进一步阐述可知，第二段主要介绍了费城的历史地位。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The museum was created to increase public recognition of the Constitution, its history and its importance today. (该博物馆的创建是为了提高公众对宪法、宪法历史及其当今重要性的认识)”可知，国家宪法中心的成立是为了教育参观者了解宪法。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“And where can the best Philly cheesestaak be found? That question is the subject of much debate—one way to settle it: try them all and decide for yourself! (哪里能找到最好的费城奶酪牛排三明治呢？这个问题一直是人们争论的焦点——解决这个问题的一个方法是：把所有的都尝一遍，然后自己决定！)”可知，作者通过最后一段的辩论想邀请游客来费城品尝美食。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。 How to Value Old coins?

Besides, almost all coin dealers have the skill to identify coins. ____19____ Note that a coin’s value isn’t fixed. The value of coins can and will go up and down since they are driven by recent supply and demand and this changes over time. When lots of people want to buy a certain type of coin, the value may go up. ____20____ A. Get your coins professionally valued. B. But if the interest fades, so does the coin’s value. C.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了评估旧硬币价值的一些方法。 【16题详解】 上文“Look for the year on the coin and examine the main details of the coin. (查看硬币上的年份，检查硬币的主要细节。)”说明了要查看硬币的年份和细节。E选项“Type your description into a search engine to see if any match appears. (把你的描述输入搜索引擎，看看是否有匹配的结果。)”承接上文，说明在查看完硬币信息后，将描述输入搜索引擎进行搜索，且下文“For example, you might search ‘1956 silver coin with a woman in crown facing left’ or ‘old copper coin with a cross and an eagle on it’. (例如，你可以搜索“1956年的银币，上面有一个戴王冠的女人面朝左”或“上面有一个十字架和一只鹰的旧铜币”。)”就是在对如何搜索操作进行举例说明，上下文逻辑连贯。故选E项。 【17题详解】 上文“Do not clean the coin to get a better look.

(但如果兴趣消退，硬币的价值也会下降。)”与上文构成对比，说明需求减少时硬币价值会下降，符合硬币价值波动的逻辑。故选B项。 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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 One afternoon, Terry’s husband Bob was driving and then he pulled over to go into a shop, leaving Terry and their 2-year-old daughter Julie and 1-year-old son Mikey in the backseat of the car.

My sister Ann found him as he stood in the bend of our narrow country road. She got out of the car and approached him as he wagged his tail. Ann took him to our farmhouse, calling me and my husband Tony out to greet her underweight, tired, and messy (凌乱的) passenger. Tony and I were willing and open for a dog in need to keep him overnight. That evening, we settled him into our outdoor dog channel (狗窝) with a blanket, food, and water. Though leaving him outdoors, we had a restless night and walked up several times to the kennel with a flashlight to check on him. We feared he would move around and get lost in the woods nearby or disappear in the river at a short distance. The next day, I drove him to Animal Control to see if anyone had left a notice. But no one did. I decided to give this lovely fellow a home. I named him Marley. After cleaning Marley, we arranged for him to sleep in the kitchen on a dog bed. The dog soon bounced back to life under our attentive care. From then on, he followed us everywhere—through the fields in the morning, into the kitchen at mealtime, and even curled up (蜷缩) by the fireplace in the evenings. His lively nature slowly woke him into our hearts. However, his liveliness also brought about trouble. Marley’s bed was next to a door that was always closed with a latch (门闩) overnight to protect him from moving out. However, when we awoke in the morning one day, we discovered the latched door opened and Marley was nowhere to be found but appeared in our house soon. Tony and I thought we had forgotten to latch it. The next day it happened again. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then on the third day, the mystery was solved. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ One rainy afternoon, Marley escaped again and didn’t come back as usual. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： Then on the third day, the mystery was solved. Tony and I decided to stay up late to observe Marley’s movements. We pretended to go to bed as usual but kept a close watch from the living room. Around midnight, we heard a soft clicking sound. Looking into the kitchen, we saw Marley standing on his hind legs, using his nose and paws to move the latch repeatedly until the door opened. Then he ran to the backyard, tail wagging proudly. Amazed, we realized Marley could open doors, and certainly had opened our hearts. We immediately fixed the latch to the high position to protect the beloved dog from danger. One rainy afternoon, Marley escaped again and didn’t come back as usual. Despite our safety measure, he managed to open the door and disappeared into the storm. Panicked, Tony and I searched the neighborhood, calling his name and checking every possible hiding spot. Hours passed with no sign of him. Just as hope began to fade, a neighbor called, saying a wet, shivering dog had taken shelter under her porch. Rushing over, we found Marley curled up, his face messy but his eyes bright with recognition. Relief washed over us as we carried him home. That night, we strengthened our safety measure again, determined to keep our adventurous Marley safe. 【解析】 【导语】本文以一只被收养的狗Marley为线索展开，讲述了作者和丈夫收养了一只被遗弃的狗Marley，在悉心照料下，Marley逐渐恢复了活力，并融入了作者的家庭。然而，Marley的活泼好动也带来了麻烦，他学会了开门，多次偷偷溜出去。尽管作者和丈夫加强了安全措施，但Marley还是在一个雨天再次逃脱，并失踪了数小时，最终在邻居的帮助下被找回。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第三天，谜团解开了。”可知，第一段可描写作者和丈夫发现Marley会自己开门的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“一个下雨的下午，Marley再次逃脱，没有像往常一样回来。”可知，第二段可描写Marley逃脱后，作者和丈夫焦急寻找，最终在邻居处找到的经过。 2.续写线索：观察Marley——发现会开门——加强安全措施——Marley再次逃脱——焦急寻找——在邻居处找到——加强防范 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①观察：observe/watch closely ②检查：check/examine ③寻找：search/seek 情绪类 ①惊慌的：panicked/frightened ②宽慰的：relief/comfort 【点睛】[高分句型1] Amazed, we realized Marley could open doors, and certainly had opened our hearts.

Cherry Blossom (樱花) Festival Home to some 350,000 Yoshino cherry trees, Macon is the self-described “cherry blossom capital of the world”. Each March, it’s covered by pink blossoms. The local calendar is packed with events, too, including the unmissable Wiener Dog Race, the Pink Pancake Breakfast, and the Cherry Blossom Parade with floats, marching bands, and more. Skagit Valley Tulip (郁金香) Festival The best part of this month-long April festival is visiting the valley’s tulip farms. You can take in sweeping views of the tulip fields on two wheels through Tulip Country Bike Tours. Get prepared for particularly rainy spring here. La Conner, an hour north of Seattle, offers a charming starting point for tulip spotting. Mackinac Island Lilac (丁香) Festival This no-cars-allowed island in Lake Huron kicks off summer with a 10-day celebration of lilacs in June. There’s a little bit of everything on the calendar, from a bicycle race and a 10-km run to a movie screening at Fort Mackinac. Visitors can also join walking tours to learn more about the island’s gardens and flowers. Many visitors think the best way to take in the blooming lilac bushes is on two wheels. Crested Butte Wildflower Festival Founded in 1986 and now spread over 10 days each July, this festival celebrates the wildflowers blooming in and around Colorado’s Gunnison Valley. Attend guided walks and hikes ranging from beginner to advanced levels. The higher you hike, the more wildflowers you’ll see.

B When Mia DaPonte was young, she learned that her mother had become an Open Water Diver. Mia decided to become a diver, too. But the youngest one that can start training as a diver is 10 years old. Once Mia came of age, she got serious. First, she got her Open Water Diver certificate (合格证书). Mia lives in Rhode Island, where the oceans are cold, and people usually can’t see very far. But she didn’t let that discourage her. It’s a rule that when one is diving, they should always have a companion — a second person working with them when diving. Mia’s mother decided to take all the courses Mia was taking to be her companion. Mia completed 78 dives — far more than the 50 needed to become a Master Scuba Diver. But Mia had to wait for her last two courses — Advanced Open Water Diver and Rescue Diver. That’s because one has to be at least 12 years old to earn these certificates. Over the week before her birthday, Mia did most of the training required for the last two courses and she passed the Advanced Open Water Diver course on her birthday. The next day, when she was officially 12, Mia finished the Rescue Diver course. That was not getting along without difficulties. Mia did three dives in one day, including one deep dive down to 17.5 meters and she had to made her night dive. The hardest part of the course was showing that she could raise an injured grow-up diver to the surface and take the steps needed to help restart their breath. Mia says she feels proud to have become a Master Scuba Diver. But she doesn’t plan to stop there. She’s interested in getting more training as a diver. In the future, she hopes to become a marine (海的) biologist. 4. What made Mia’s mother take the same diving courses? A. Improving her own diving skills. B. Setting a good example for Mia. C. Being Mia’s diving partner as required. D. Watching over Mia’s training process. 5. Why was Mia unable to become a Master Scuba Diver according to paragraph 3? A. She couldn’t see far in the sea. B. She didn’t have a companion. C She was too young to attend related courses. D. She did’t finish the dives that were needed. 6. What challenged Mia most about the Rescue Diver course? A. Diving deep to 17.5 meters. B. Performing first aid on adults. C. Finishing three dives one day. D. Making night diving by herself. 7. Which of the following can best describe Mia? A. Curious and warm-hearted. B. Determined and open-minded. C. Serious and easy-going. D. Tough and strong-willed. C Britain was once covered with rainforests, known as Celtic rainforests or Atlantic woodland. The temperate (温带的) rainforests only occur in places close to the sea with high rainfall, high humidity (湿度) and low variations in temperature and full of plants and animals. The Celtic rainforests used to spread out all across the wetter areas of the country’s west. But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. By the start of the 20th century, Britain had become the least-wooded country in Europe, with only small parts remaining in western coastal rainforest areas. There’s a new rainforest coming back to Britain right now. A movement is underway across Britain to recover these forgotten ecosystems. And in Devon, the first step towards achieving that has just been completed. With the help of over 100 local volunteers, more than 2,500 native trees have been planted at Devon Wildlife Trust’s Bowden Pillars site, not far from the town of Totnes. It’s hoped that another 4,500 oak, rowan, alder, hazel, birch, willow and holly trees will be planted by the end of this winter and over the coming decades, and that they’ll grow to form a thriving (欣欣向荣的) temperate rainforest. The recovery programme, led by The Wildlife Trusts, is happening across other parts of the country, including Cornwall and Pembrokeshire and has been boosted by a significant £38 million of funding from an insurance company. Claire Inglis, a nature reserve officer at Devon Wildlife Trust, said, “The full grown temperate rainforest will take several decades to become established, but the advantages for nature will be much swifter. The mix of young trees planted among grasslands and hedges (树篱), along with our promise not to use chemicals, will be better for local butterflies and bees, along with local birds such as yellowhammers and barn owls. It will be fascinating to see how it develops.” 8. What was mainly responsible for Britain’s lost Celtic rainforest in the past? A. Low temperature. B. Animal farming. C. Plant variation. D. High humidity. 9. What can we say about the movement across Britain? A. It’s worrying. B. It’s promising. C. It’s unrealistic. D. It’s uncontrollable. 10. What does the underlined word “swifter” in the last paragraph mean? A. Further. B. More unlikely. C. Quicker. D. More costly. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A A Story of Destruction About Britain’s Lost Rainforests B. The Challenges of Reviving Celtic Rainforests in Britain C. A Nationwide Effort to Revive Lost Rainforests in Britain D. The Truth of the Disappearance of Britain’s Celtic Rainforests D Philadelphia often referred to as Philly, is a major city located along the Delaware River in Pennsylvania, a state in the northeastern United States. Founded in the 1680s by an Englishman William Penn, who also planned its layout (布局), the city was named Philadelphia — a word Penn understood to mean “city of brotherly love” in Greek. Philadelphia served as the nation’s capital from 1785 to 1790. Earlier, it was the capital of the American colonies (殖民地) during most of the Revolutionary War against Britain. Philadelphia became the central meeting place for the “Founding Fathers” who created the United States government. The buildings where they worked can be seen today in an area called the Old City, or Independence National Historical Park. The main building is Independence Hall. That was where colonial leaders declared independence and later debated the creation of a government. Near the park stands National Liberty (自由) Museum, housing over ninety paintings and sculptures, which represent the idea that liberty is a freedom that is easily broken. Several blocks away lies National Constitution (美国宪法) Center, a privately operated nonprofit museum that opened its doors in Philadelphia on July 4, 2003. The museum was created to increase public recognition of the Constitution, its history and its importance today. Visitors here are presented with the idea that the most important part of American constitutional democracy (立宪民主) is the individual citizen. Philadelphia also offers plenty for visitors who are less concerned about history and more concerned about their stomachs. There are many food choices for foodies, including a typical sandwich — the Philly cheesesteak, usually made of thin pieces of meat covered with cheese, offered with onions and other toppings and served on a long roll.

If you come across some old or unusual coins, you might try to figure out how much they’re worth. Here are tips to help you. Use the year and image on the coin to run an online search. Look for the year on the coin and examine the main details of the coin. ____16____ For example, you might search “1956 silver coin with a woman in crown facing left” or “old copper coin with a cross and an eagle on it”. Do not clean the coin to get a better look. ____17____ In fact, a strictly original coin is often worth more than a cleaned version of the same coin. To keep the value of your coin, treat it as a museum piece and properly deal with it only when the coin is likely to further devalue (贬值) because of surface contaminants (致污物). ____18____ Experts in the field can give you the most accurate (准确的), up-to-date values of your coins. They will base their judgement on their expert opinion of the coin condition and marketability. They will take into account what similar coins have been selling for lately. Besides, almost all coin dealers have the skill to identify coins. ____19____ Note that a coin’s value isn’t fixed. The value of coins can and will go up and down since they are driven by recent supply and demand and this changes over time. When lots of people want to buy a certain type of coin, the value may go up. ____20____ A. Get your coins professionally valued. B. But if the interest fades, so does the coin’s value. C. Figure out the highest price in the current market. D Just don’t let them know you want to sell so you get an honest opinion. E. Type your description into a search engine to see if any match appears. F. There is no faster way to ruin the value of a coin than to try removing dirt. G. coins with little sign of use are generally worth more than those that are damaged. 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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 One afternoon, Terry’s husband Bob was driving and then he pulled over to go into a shop, leaving Terry and their 2-year-old daughter Julie and 1-year-old son Mikey in the backseat of the car.

My sister Ann found him as he stood in the bend of our narrow country road. She got out of the car and approached him as he wagged his tail. Ann took him to our farmhouse, calling me and my husband Tony out to greet her underweight, tired, and messy (凌乱的) passenger. Tony and I were willing and open for a dog in need to keep him overnight. That evening, we settled him into our outdoor dog channel (狗窝) with a blanket, food, and water. Though leaving him outdoors, we had a restless night and walked up several times to the kennel with a flashlight to check on him. We feared he would move around and get lost in the woods nearby or disappear in the river at a short distance. The next day, I drove him to Animal Control to see if anyone had left a notice. But no one did. I decided to give this lovely fellow a home. I named him Marley. After cleaning Marley, we arranged for him to sleep in the kitchen on a dog bed. The dog soon bounced back to life under our attentive care. From then on, he followed us everywhere—through the fields in the morning, into the kitchen at mealtime, and even curled up (蜷缩) by the fireplace in the evenings. His lively nature slowly woke him into our hearts. However, his liveliness also brought about trouble. Marley’s bed was next to a door that was always closed with a latch (门闩) overnight to protect him from moving out. However, when we awoke in the morning one day, we discovered the latched door opened and Marley was nowhere to be found but appeared in our house soon. Tony and I thought we had forgotten to latch it. The next day it happened again. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then on the third day, the mystery was solved. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ One rainy afternoon, Marley escaped again and didn’t come back as usual. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
