A smaller number of people are killed after they touch the power lines outside their homes. Electric shocks can cause a person's heart or breath to stop and are potentially fatal. It is essential for people to learn basic techniques to deal with such emergencies. What to do? ● If you are the first person to reach someone who has an electric shock, don't touch him or her! ● If the victim is still holding the appliance that gives him or her the shock (e.g. a hair dryer), unplug it or turn off the power at its source. Under no circumstances can you try to move the appliance with your hands! ● If you can't turn off the power, use a piece of wood, like a broom handle or a chair, to separate the victim from the appliance or the power source. You may even be able to do this with a folded newspaper. ● The victim must remain lying down. If he or she is unconscious, the victim should be placed on his or her side. But he or she should not be moved if there is a possibility of neck or spine injuries unless it is absolutely necessary. ● It is essential to maintain the victim's body heat, so make sure you cover him or her with a blanket before you do anything else. If the victim is not breathing, apply mouth-to-mouth resuscitation (人工呼吸). Keep the victim's head low until professional help arrives. ● If the electric shock has been caused by an external power line, the dangers to the victim and to anybody providing first aid are much greater. 21. What kind of passage is it? A. An advertisement. B. A horror story. C. A news report. D. First aid emergency advice. 22. The underlined sentence implies that ________. A. you should move the appliance B. you should pick up the appliance and turn off the electricity C. it is very dangerous to touch the appliance with your hands D. it is unnecessary to unplug the appliance with your hands 23. When a person has got an electric shock, you should ________. A. separate the victim from the appliance and let him sit up B. keep the victim warm and help him or her breathe again C. move the victim onto his or her side if he or she has got neck injuries D. keep the victim's head high until professional help arrives 【答案】21. D 22. C 23. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇应用文。本文讲述的是对人们来说，学习基本的急救技术是必不可少的。文章主要介绍了一些关于电击的急救知识。 【21题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“It is essential for people to learn basic first aid techniques to deal with such emergencies.(对于人们来说，学习基本的急救技术来处理这类紧急情况是很重要的)”结合文章主要介绍了一些关于电击的急救知识。可知，文章是一篇急救建议。故选D。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据画线词上文“If the victim is still holding the appliance that gives him or her the shock (e.g. a hair dryer), unplug it or turn off the power at its source.(●如果受害者仍然拿着让他或她电击的器具（例如吹风机），拔掉插头或关闭电源)”以及常识，被电击的人先要拔掉电源，不能用手去挪动设备，防止触电。可推知画线句子表明用手触摸该设备是非常危险的。故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“It is essential to maintain the victim's body heat, so make sure you cover him or her with a blanket before you do anything else. If the victim is not breathing, apply mouth-to-mouth resuscitation (人工呼吸). Keep the victim's head low until professional help arrives.(保持受害者的体温是很重要的，所以在你做任何其他事情之前，要确保用毯子盖住他或她。如果病人没有呼吸，进行口对口人工呼吸。在专业救援到来之前，保持受害者低着头)”可知，当一个人受到电击时，你应该让受害者保持温暖，并帮助他或她再次呼吸。故选B。 B It was a hot summer day, and I became thirsty. The sun was right above our heads, and my thirst became unbearable. My mouth was completely dry. We could see a village at the bottom of the mountain — four hours away, according to the smuggler. After a few minutes, however, we got to a small lake. The water was yellow and covered with algae, but the smuggler drank it and brought me a cup of water to drink. As I looked into the cup, I was reminded of the solution that we prepared in biology class in order to grow bacteria. This was the main source of water for the village. Who knows what microorganisms were swimming in that lake. “I wouldn’t drink it if I were you,” my aunt said. But I closed my eyes and drank the whole cup at once. I would worry about the consequences later. We reached the village just before sunset. After eating dinner and resting for several hours, we started to travel again. The night journey was magnificent. The sky was clear, the moon was full, and millions of stars seemed to be twinkling at the night travelers. We could hear the bells of another car a van coming from the opposite direction, getting louder and louder as it got close. The ding-a-ling of that caravan added a rhythm to the lonely desert. Now we were on the land of the Freedom Fighters. We knew if they recognized the smuggler, they would kill all of us as spies. The Freedom Fighters and the Millitia are enemies to each other, and the Freedom Fighters did not trust anyone who was traveling with an agent. At dawn we reached a small teahouse, where we had some tea and bread. We walked on, and soon a signpost got my attention. As I got closer, I was able to read the words: Welcome to Pakistan I started to cry, walking backwards to get one last glimpse of my beloved country. 24. The author hesitated to drink the water, because ________ A. it was prepared for biology class B. It was bitter to drink C. only the villagers could drink it D. It might make the author sick 25. From Paragraph 3, we can learn that ________ A. the travelers were singing to the rhythm of the bells B. the other car a van rang the bells louder and louder C. the author was in fairly high spirits while traveling D. the ding-a-ling was an alarm warning danger to them 26. The author walked backwards because ________ A. he hated to leave his motherland B. he didn’t want to go to Pakistan C. he was too tired to walk forwards D. He returned to where he was born 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了“我们”背井离乡，在去别国的旅途中遇到的各种困难以及担忧。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“As I looked into the cup, I was reminded of the solution that we prepared in biology class in order to grow bacteria. This was the main source of water for the village. Who knows what microorganisms were swimming in that lake.(当我看着杯子时，我想起了我们在生物课上准备的用来培养细菌的溶液。这是这个村庄的主要水源。谁知道湖里有什么微生物在游动)”可知，作者犹豫着要不要喝这杯水，因为它可能使作者生病。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“We reached the village just before sunset. After eating dinner and resting for several hours, we started to travel again. The night journey was magnificent. The sky was clear, the moon was full, and millions of stars seemed to be twinkling at the night travelers. We could hear the bells of another car a van coming from the opposite direction, getting louder and louder as it got close. The ding-a-ling of that caravan added a rhythm to the lonely desert.(我们在日落前到达了那个村庄。吃过晚饭，休息了几个小时后，我们又开始了旅行。夜间的旅行很壮观。天空晴朗，月亮是圆的，无数的星星似乎在向夜行者闪烁。我们可以听到另一辆车的铃声——一辆厢式货车从相反的方向驶来，越近铃声就越响。那辆大篷车的丁当声给荒凉的沙漠增添了一种节奏)”可知，作者旅行时情绪高涨。故选C。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“As I got closer, I was able to read the words: Welcome to Pakistan. I started to cry, walking backwards to get one last glimpse of my beloved country.(当我走近时，我看到上面写着：欢迎来到巴基斯坦。我哭了起来，倒着走，想最后看一眼我深爱的国家)”可知，作者深爱祖国，不愿离开祖国，所以才会走回去看祖国最后一眼。故选A。 C We’ve all been there: in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, surrounded by people who are, like us, deeply focused on their smartphones or, worse, struggling with the uncomfortable silence. What’s the problem? It’s possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence. It’s more likely that none of us start a conversation because it’s awkward and challenging, or we think it’s annoying and unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. Experts say it’s an invaluable social practice that results in big benefits. Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy, but we can’t forget that deep relationships wouldn’t even exist if it weren’t for casual conversation. Small talk is the grease(润滑剂) for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast. ＂Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk,＂ he explains. ＂The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them.＂ In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology at UBC, invited people on their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to seek out an interaction(互动) with its waiter; the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience. ＂It’s not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband,＂ says Dunn. ＂But interactions with peripheral(边缘的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also.＂ Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of belonging, a bond with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk. ＂Small talk is the basis of good manners,＂ he says. 27. What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph? A. Addiction to smartphones. B. Inappropriate behaviours in public places. C. Absence of communication between strangers. D. Impatience with slow service. 28. What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci? A. Showing good manners. B. Relating to other people. C. Focusing on a topic. D. Making business deals. 29. What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk? A. It improves family relationships. B. It raises people’s confidence. C. It matters as much as a formal talk. D. It makes people feel good. 30. What is the best title for the text? A. Conversation Counts B. Ways of Making Small Talk C. Benefits of Small Talk D. Uncomfortable Silence 【答案】27. C 28. B 29. D 30. C 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇议论文。在当今社会，人们在公共场合或沉迷于智能手机，或与不舒服的沉默抗争，陌生人之间缺乏沟通。但人与人之间是需要适当的交谈闲聊的，闲聊是人际关系社会交往必不可少的部分，而且也有很多好处。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。题干问的是：第一段描述了什么现象。在公共场合（比如在电梯里，在银行排队，或在飞机上）人们深深地专注于他们的智能手机，或者更糟糕的是，与不舒服的沉默抗争。有此可知，陌生人之间缺乏沟通。A项意为：沉迷于智能手机。B项意为：在公共场所不适当的行为。C项意为：陌生人之间缺乏沟通。D项意为：对缓慢的服务不耐烦。故选C项。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。题干问得是对于Carducci来说，成功闲聊中重要的是什么。根据第三段最后一句“The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them”（成功闲聊的关键是学习如何与他们交流，而不仅仅是与他们沟通。）由此推断C符合题意。A项意为：表现出良好的礼貌。B项意为：与他人有关的。C项意为：专注于一个话题。D项意为：做商业交易。故选B项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。题干问的是：咖啡店的研究对闲聊有什么建议。根据第四段的调查结果可知，那些与服务员聊天的人，有显著的积极情绪和更好的咖啡店体验。由此可知，D项符合题意。A项意为：闲聊改善了家庭关系。B项意为：闲聊提高了人们的信心。C项意为：闲聊和正式谈话一样重要。D项意为：闲聊让人感觉很好。故选D项。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。整篇文章刚开始介绍了社会的现象（公共场合人们沉迷于智能手机，陌生人之间缺乏沟通交流），接着分析了这一问题的原因，接下来有专家对闲聊进行了研究，最后得出结论，闲聊都有什么样的好处。A项意为：谈话很重要。B项意为：闲聊的方法。C项意为：闲聊的好处。D项意为：不舒服的沉默。故选C项。 【点睛】我们在做阅读理解时，尽量找出每段的主讲内容（可能是一句话或是一个短语），这样有利于整篇文章的把握，有利于做文章大意题。如35题，很显然本文讲的不是重要性也不是方法更不是沉默，所以ABD都可以轻松排除。 D A quiet space is often considered essential for achieving the concentration that leads to academic success. But research shows that some students may benefit from breaking the silence with certain kinds of music while they study. Music has a powerful influence on both the body and the brain, in ways that can help students navigate the physical and emotional barriers that come with academic challenges. One US study compared students who took a test to soft music with those who took the test under silent conditions. The study found that students taking a test to music not only completed more questions within a set time but also answered more questions correctly. Music has been further linked to improvements in memory and recall. Experts have found that when music stimulates mood and motivation, students are able to learn more and to better demonstrate their knowledge. A bit of mood music affects more than just memory and recall when students hit the books. Music can also relieve stress associated with school. Scientists have learned that music engages the autonomic nervous system, which not only controls the unconscious functions of the body but also influences emotions. So it’s no surprise that researchers from the Group Health Research Institute concluded that certain kinds of background music can be just as effective at reducing stress as a massage. Furthermore, while the brain feels better with music, the body may as well. Research shows that certain types of music can make physical pain feel less intense. What’s more, calming music with a steady, meditative rhythm can help people sleep longer and more deeply. However, some educators express concern that listening to music while trying to concentrate may do more harm than good. Loud music may have a negative influence on a student’s mood or act as a distraction. Actually, the best approach may depend on the students themselves. Listening to music during study time may not mean a guaranteed A for all students, but those who find it helpful should be allowed to plug in their headphones. 31. What does the underlined word “navigate” in the first paragraph probably mean? A. Recognize. B. Overcome. C. Assess. D. Create. 32. What can we learn from this passage? A. Music helps students get rid of physical pain. B. Loud music has the same calming effect as a massage. C. Listening to music makes it easier for students to multitask. D. Music helps students better remember relevant information. 33. The author writes Paragraph 3 mainly to ______. A. present the effects of music on mind and body B. compare the functions of different types of music C. confirm the impacts of music on memory and recall D. give examples of the influences of music on emotions 34. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage? A. The Power of Silence B. Music to a Patient C. The Score to Better Scores D. Road to Academic Success 【答案】31. B 32. D 33. A 34. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍研究表明某些音乐对学生学习有益，能帮助克服障碍、提升成绩等，也提及相关争议。 【31题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中的“Music has a powerful influence on both the body and the brain, in ways that can help students navigate the physical and emotional barriers that come with academic challenges. (音乐对身体和大脑都有强大的影响，它可以帮助学生……学术挑战带来的身体和情感障碍。)”可知，音乐可以帮助学生克服障碍，由此可知，“navigate”在这里表示“克服”的意思，与“Overcome”含义相近。故选B项。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Music has been further linked to improvements in memory and recall. Experts have found that when music stimulates mood and motivation, students are able to learn more and to better demonstrate their knowledge. (音乐还与记忆力和回忆力的提高有关。专家发现，当音乐激发情绪和动力时，学生能够学到更多东西，并更好地展示自己的知识。)”可知，音乐有助于学生更好地记住相关信息。故选D项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“A bit of mood music affects more than just memory and recall when students hit the books. Music can also relieve stress associated with school. (当学习时，一点情绪音乐不仅是影响记忆和回忆。音乐还可以缓解与学校有关的压力。)”以及“Research shows that certain types of music can make physical pain feel less intense. What’s more, calming music with a steady, meditative rhythm can help people sleep longer and more deeply. (研究表明，某些类型的音乐可以减轻身体疼痛的强度。此外，具有稳定、冥想式节奏的舒缓音乐能够帮助人们睡得更久、更沉。)”可知，第三段主要是为了列举音乐对身心的影响。故选A项。 【34题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“Music has a powerful influence on both the body and the brain, in ways that can help students navigate the physical and emotional barriers that come with academic challenges. (音乐对身体和大脑都有强大的影响，可以帮助学生克服学业挑战带来的身体和情感障碍。)”可知，文章主要讲述了音乐对学生学习的积极影响，如提升记忆力、缓解压力等，有助于学生取得更好的成绩。“The Score to Better Scores”既体现了音乐（score也有乐谱之意），又与成绩（score）相关，能很好地概括全文主旨，所以适合作为本文的最佳标题。故选C项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。 Some individuals are born with a gift for public speaking.___35___Do you want to be a good public speaker?

Too often when you stand up to give a speech, you focus on the “public”at the expense of the “speaking. ” ___36___ Focus on the speaking. Talk directly to your audience, be yourself and make a connection. Even the most successful public speaker will make mistakes. Yet, the only one who cares about any mistake is the one who is speaking. People’s attention wanders constantly. In fact,most people only absorb about 20 percent of a speaker’s message. So, don’t stop speaking when you make a mistake unless it’s a truly serious one.___37___ Your goal is not to be a perfect public speaker.___38___And like everything else in life, that takes practice. Remember, even world champion athletes practice their skills on a consistent basis. ___39___It’s rare to hear someone say, “I wish that speaker had spoken longer. “On the other hand, you probably can’t count the times that you’ve thought, “I’m glad that talk is over. It seemed to go on forever! “So surprise your audience. Always make your presentation just a bit shorter than anticipated. It’s better to leave your listeners wishing for more than shifting restlessly in their seats waiting for your speech finally to end. A. Do the opposite. B. You want to be an effective public speaker. C. You don’ t need to apologize for a minor slip. D. When it comes to public speaking, less is usually more. E. The objective of most speeches is to benefit the audience F. Take the fear out of public speaking by focusing on your listeners G. However, the majority of people are effective speakers because they train to be. 【答案】35. G 36. A 37. C 38. B 39. D 【解析】 【分析】本文是说明文。文章介绍了成为好的演讲者需要掌握的一些原则。 【35题详解】 本文主题是介绍成为好的演讲者要掌握的一些原则。上句提到有些人生来就有演讲的天赋。G项:然而，大多数人之所以能成为有影响的演讲者，是因为他们受过训练。与上句转折，引出本文主题--演讲者要训练。故选G。 【36题详解】 下句Focus on the speaking.是本段主题，建议演讲者把注意力集中在演讲上。上句提到一种常见现象，当站起来发表演讲时，演讲者往往会把注意力放在”公众”上，而不是”演讲”上。这是错误的做法，A项Do the opposite.承上启下，说明了上句做法的错误，引出了下句正确的做法。故选A。 【37题详解】 本段提到即使成功的演讲者也会犯错误，观众不会太在意你的错误。上句建议当出错时不要停止演讲，除非是非常严重的错误。C项:你不需要为一个小失误道歉。与上句承接，是对待演讲出错的方法。故选C。 【38题详解】 本段是说明练习的重要性。上句提到你的目标不是成为一个完美的演说家，下句应该说明目标是什么。B. You want to be an effective public speaker.与上句衔接，是我们演讲的真正目的。故选B。 【39题详解】 下文提到观众并不是认为演讲越长越好，根据 Always make your presentation just a bit shorter than anticipated.可知，作者建议让演讲比预期的短一点，给观众更多的期待胜过让他们坐立不安地等待演讲结束。D项:公开演讲时，通常少就是多。说明了演讲时，多和少的辩证关系。故选D。 第三部分：书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节 阅读表达（共4小题，每小题3分；共12分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 In the years of my growing up, Dad was strict with me. He made sure I made my bed and did my homework. He would call in advance to make sure there was no alcohol at the party. I got so angry with him for laying down the law. I would scream, “I hate you!” Dad would yell back, “Good! I don’t care!” Deep down I knew he did. One time at a party, I drank too much alcohol and got so sick. I said, “Call my dad.” Next thing, Dad was carrying me to the car. I woke up the next morning, thinking I would definitely be criticized. As expected, I got scolded, but I now understand why I need discipline. Dad was 29 when he got his big roles in films. I had an early start at the age of nine with a role in a 1990s TV series, but it wasn’t until I finished film studies that I pursued my career as an actress. Like those early days for Dad, I faced lots of rejections. Working in such a competitive industry, I’ve sometimes thought, “I can’t do this any more.” Once, after a trip to Hollywood, I returned to Australia so depressed and spent months in my bedroom painting, listening to Eckhart Tolle’s music and trying to find myself again. Dad sat me down and said, “Alice, I know it’s hard, but it’s all about persistence.” Now I get to work with Dad a lot, which I love. We are both passionate about acting, which comes from us being so interested in people. If it weren’t for Dad, I wouldn’t be where I am today. He’s my biggest fan, and when you have that in your life you can go a long way. 40. What rules did Alice’s father set for her when she was growing up?（no more than 15 words） ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 41. What did Alice’s father do when she felt depressed?（no more than 5 words） ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 42. According to the last paragraph, what do Alice and her father have in common?（no more than 10 words） ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 43. What do you think of Alice’s father? Please explain.（about 30 words） ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】40. She should make her bed, do her homework and drink no alcohol. Or: Making her bed, doing her homework and drinking no alcohol. 41. He encouraged/comforted/inspired her. 42. They are both passionate about acting and interested in people. 43. He is a good/devoted/caring/loving father because he was strict with his daughter and encouraged her when she was in trouble. Or: He is always supportive/a source of strength. Whenever she is in trouble, he is there for her. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了一个严父、慈父对女儿教育培养以及对女儿的影响。 【40题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“He made sure I made my bed and did my homework. He would call in advance to make sure there was no alcohol at the party. I got so angry with him for laying down the law. (他确保我整理床铺和做作业。他会提前打电话确认聚会上没有酒。我很生他的气，因为他立下了规矩。)”可知，爱丽斯的父亲给他制定了铺床，做作业和不许喝酒的规章制度。故答案为She should make her bed, do her homework and drink no alcohol. Or: Making her bed, doing her homework and drinking no alcohol. 【41题详解】 考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的“Once, after a trip to Hollywood, I returned to Australia so depressed and spent months in my bedroom painting, listening to Eckhart Tolle’s music and trying to find myself again. Dad sat me down and said, “Alice, I know it’s hard, but it’s all about persistence.”(有一次，在去了好莱坞之后，我沮丧地回到澳大利亚，在我的卧室里呆了几个月，画画，听埃克哈特·托尔的音乐，试图重新找回自己。爸爸让我坐下，对我说：“爱丽丝，我知道这很难，但这都需要坚持。”)”可知，在爱丽斯感到精神不振的时候，父亲鼓励或者安慰或者激励了她。故答案为He encouraged/comforted/inspired her. 【42题详解】 考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“We are both passionate about acting, which comes from us being so interested in people. (我们俩都对表演充满热情，这源于我们对人（的内心世界）有着浓厚的兴趣。)”可知，爱丽斯和她的父亲的共同点就是对演艺事业充满了激情，对人们感兴趣。故答案为They are both passionate about acting and interested in people. 【43题详解】 考查推理判断。根据文章的内容和第一段中的“In the years of my growing up, Dad was strict with me. He made sure I made my bed and did my homework. He would call in advance to make sure there was no alcohol at the party.(在我成长的那些年里，爸爸对我要求很严格。他确保我整理好床铺、做好作业。他还会提前打电话确认聚会上没有酒。)”和第二段中的“As expected, I got scolded, but I now understand why I need discipline. (和像预期的那样，我被骂了，但我现在明白为什么我需要纪律。)”可知，爱丽斯的父亲对女儿严格要求是一个严父，结合倒数第二段中的“Once, after a trip to Hollywood, I returned to Australia so depressed and spent months in my bedroom painting, listening to Eckhart Tolle’s music and trying to find myself again. Dad sat me down and said, “Alice, I know it’s hard, but it’s all about persistence.” (有一次，在好莱坞旅行回来后，我回到澳大利亚，心情十分沮丧，一连几个月都待在卧室里画画、听埃克哈特·托利的音乐，努力想重新找回自我。爸爸让我坐下，对我说：“爱丽丝，我知道这很难，但关键在于坚持。”)”可知，每当她有困难时，爱丽斯的父亲都会在她身边，关爱和鼓励女儿，所以判断出爱丽斯的父亲是一个好父亲，是女儿力量的源泉。故答案为He is a good/devoted/caring/loving father because he was strict with his daughter and encouraged her when she was in trouble. Or: He is always supportive/a source of strength. Whenever she is in trouble, he is there for her. 第二节（20分） 44. 假设你是红星中学高一学生李华，你校英文校报正在举办主题为The Admirable的征文活动，请你按照下列内容要点投稿： 1.该人物的身份：请从袁隆平、屠呦呦、马丁·路德金三人中任选一人； 2.该人物的主要事迹和品质。 提示词：杂交水稻 Hybrid Rice 注意：词数：100词左右。 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: The Admirable The person I admire is Yuan Longping.

A smaller number of people are killed after they touch the power lines outside their homes. Electric shocks can cause a person's heart or breath to stop and are potentially fatal. It is essential for people to learn basic techniques to deal with such emergencies. What to do? ● If you are the first person to reach someone who has an electric shock, don't touch him or her! ● If the victim is still holding the appliance that gives him or her the shock (e.g. a hair dryer), unplug it or turn off the power at its source. Under no circumstances can you try to move the appliance with your hands! ● If you can't turn off the power, use a piece of wood, like a broom handle or a chair, to separate the victim from the appliance or the power source. You may even be able to do this with a folded newspaper. ● The victim must remain lying down. If he or she is unconscious, the victim should be placed on his or her side. But he or she should not be moved if there is a possibility of neck or spine injuries unless it is absolutely necessary. ● It is essential to maintain the victim's body heat, so make sure you cover him or her with a blanket before you do anything else. If the victim is not breathing, apply mouth-to-mouth resuscitation (人工呼吸). Keep the victim's head low until professional help arrives. ● If the electric shock has been caused by an external power line, the dangers to the victim and to anybody providing first aid are much greater. 21. What kind of passage is it? A. An advertisement. B. A horror story. C. A news report. D. First aid emergency advice. 22. The underlined sentence implies that ________. A. you should move the appliance B. you should pick up the appliance and turn off the electricity C. it is very dangerous to touch the appliance with your hands D. it is unnecessary to unplug the appliance with your hands 23. When a person has got an electric shock, you should ________. A. separate the victim from the appliance and let him sit up B. keep the victim warm and help him or her breathe again C. move the victim onto his or her side if he or she has got neck injuries D. keep the victim's head high until professional help arrives B It was a hot summer day, and I became thirsty. The sun was right above our heads, and my thirst became unbearable. My mouth was completely dry. We could see a village at the bottom of the mountain — four hours away, according to the smuggler. After a few minutes, however, we got to a small lake. The water was yellow and covered with algae, but the smuggler drank it and brought me a cup of water to drink. As I looked into the cup, I was reminded of the solution that we prepared in biology class in order to grow bacteria. This was the main source of water for the village. Who knows what microorganisms were swimming in that lake. “I wouldn’t drink it if I were you,” my aunt said. But I closed my eyes and drank the whole cup at once. I would worry about the consequences later. We reached the village just before sunset. After eating dinner and resting for several hours, we started to travel again. The night journey was magnificent. The sky was clear, the moon was full, and millions of stars seemed to be twinkling at the night travelers. We could hear the bells of another car a van coming from the opposite direction, getting louder and louder as it got close. The ding-a-ling of that caravan added a rhythm to the lonely desert. Now we were on the land of the Freedom Fighters. We knew if they recognized the smuggler, they would kill all of us as spies. The Freedom Fighters and the Millitia are enemies to each other, and the Freedom Fighters did not trust anyone who was traveling with an agent. At dawn we reached a small teahouse, where we had some tea and bread. We walked on, and soon a signpost got my attention. As I got closer, I was able to read the words: Welcome to Pakistan I started to cry, walking backwards to get one last glimpse of my beloved country. 24. The author hesitated to drink the water, because ________ A. it was prepared for biology class B. It was bitter to drink C. only the villagers could drink it D. It might make the author sick 25. From Paragraph 3, we can learn that ________ A. the travelers were singing to the rhythm of the bells B. the other car a van rang the bells louder and louder C. the author was in fairly high spirits while traveling D. the ding-a-ling was an alarm warning danger to them 26 The author walked backwards because ________ A. he hated to leave his motherland B. he didn’t want to go to Pakistan C. he was too tired to walk forwards D. He returned to where he was born C We’ve all been there: in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, surrounded by people who are, like us, deeply focused on their smartphones or, worse, struggling with the uncomfortable silence. What’s the problem? It’s possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence. It’s more likely that none of us start a conversation because it’s awkward and challenging, or we think it’s annoying and unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. Experts say it’s an invaluable social practice that results in big benefits. Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy, but we can’t forget that deep relationships wouldn’t even exist if it weren’t for casual conversation. Small talk is the grease(润滑剂) for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast. ＂Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk,＂ he explains. ＂The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them.＂ In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology at UBC, invited people on their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to seek out an interaction(互动) with its waiter; the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience. ＂It’s not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband,＂ says Dunn. ＂But interactions with peripheral(边缘的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also.＂ Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of belonging, a bond with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk. ＂Small talk is the basis of good manners,＂ he says. 27. What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph? A. Addiction to smartphones. B. Inappropriate behaviours in public places. C. Absence of communication between strangers. D. Impatience with slow service. 28. What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci? A. Showing good manners. B. Relating to other people. C. Focusing on a topic. D. Making business deals. 29. What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk? A. It improves family relationships. B. It raises people’s confidence. C. It matters as much as a formal talk. D. It makes people feel good. 30. What is the best title for the text? A. Conversation Counts B. Ways of Making Small Talk C. Benefits of Small Talk D. Uncomfortable Silence D A quiet space is often considered essential for achieving the concentration that leads to academic success. But research shows that some students may benefit from breaking the silence with certain kinds of music while they study. Music has a powerful influence on both the body and the brain, in ways that can help students navigate the physical and emotional barriers that come with academic challenges. One US study compared students who took a test to soft music with those who took the test under silent conditions. The study found that students taking a test to music not only completed more questions within a set time but also answered more questions correctly. Music has been further linked to improvements in memory and recall. Experts have found that when music stimulates mood and motivation, students are able to learn more and to better demonstrate their knowledge. A bit of mood music affects more than just memory and recall when students hit the books. Music can also relieve stress associated with school. Scientists have learned that music engages the autonomic nervous system, which not only controls the unconscious functions of the body but also influences emotions. So it’s no surprise that researchers from the Group Health Research Institute concluded that certain kinds of background music can be just as effective at reducing stress as a massage. Furthermore, while the brain feels better with music, the body may as well. Research shows that certain types of music can make physical pain feel less intense. What’s more, calming music with a steady, meditative rhythm can help people sleep longer and more deeply. However, some educators express concern that listening to music while trying to concentrate may do more harm than good. Loud music may have a negative influence on a student’s mood or act as a distraction. Actually, the best approach may depend on the students themselves. Listening to music during study time may not mean a guaranteed A for all students, but those who find it helpful should be allowed to plug in their headphones. 31. What does the underlined word “navigate” in the first paragraph probably mean? A. Recognize. B. Overcome. C. Assess. D. Create. 32. What can we learn from this passage? A. Music helps students get rid of physical pain. B. Loud music has the same calming effect as a massage. C. Listening to music makes it easier for students to multitask. D. Music helps students better remember relevant information. 33 The author writes Paragraph 3 mainly to ______. A. present the effects of music on mind and body B. compare the functions of different types of music C. confirm the impacts of music on memory and recall D. give examples of the influences of music on emotions 34. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage? A. The Power of Silence B. Music to a Patient C. The Score to Better Scores D. Road to Academic Success 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。 Some individuals are born with a gift for public speaking.___35___Do you want to be a good public speaker?
