It’s really hard to say 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查交际用语。句意：——这是一次美妙的旅行。那么，你更喜欢哪个城市，巴黎还是罗马？——这很难说。它们有好的一面，也有坏的一面。A. Couldn’t be better不能再好了；B. Let’s stick to the point让我们紧扣主题吧；C. That’s something真是了不起；D. It’s really hard to say这很难说。由“There were good things and bad things about them”可知，两个城市都有好的一面，也有坏的一面，因此很难说更喜欢哪个，因此空格处意为“这很难说”，故选D。 2. The quality of education in this small school is better than ______ in some larger schools. A. that B. one C. it D. this 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查代词。句意：这所小学校的教育质量要好于一些大学校。句中代词代指不可数名词the quality of education，故用代词that。代词it和one都代指可数名词单数。故选A。代词it, one和that都可指代前面提到的名词。一般说来，it指代同名同物；one与that则指代同名异物，但one为泛指，相当于a／an＋名词，只可代指可数名词；that为特指，相当于the＋名词，可以代指不可数名词。one既可代替事物，也可代替人，that只能代替事物而不能代替人。掌握好这些知识就不难选出答案。 3.

The university estimates that living expenses for international students ________around $8450 a year, which ________a burden for some of them. A. are; is B. are; are C. is; are D. is; is 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查主谓一致。句意：该大学估计，国际学生每年的生活费约为8450美元，这对其中一些人来说是一种负担。分析句子结构，这是一个包含宾语从句和定语从句的复合句，宾语从句在动词estimates后面作主句的宾语，定语从句为关系代词which引导的非限制性定语从句，先行词为前面一整句话表达的内容，两个空白处均需填系动词，宾语从句的主语为复数名词expenses，所以系动词与主语保持一致，使用复数形式；定语从句的主语为句子的主句，根据主谓一致的用法，当单个句子作主语的时候，谓语动词使用单数，因整个句子表达的是一个客观情况，谓语动词使用一般现在时，所以第一个答题空填are；第二个答题空填is，故选A项。 7. Mary was greatly inspired though she made ________improvements in her English writing. A. brilliant B. modest C. substantial D. considerable 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：玛丽虽然在英语写作上只有一点点进步，但她还是深受鼓舞。A. brilliant极聪明的；B. modest适度的，中等的；C. substantial数目大的，可观的；D. considerable相当多的，相当大的。因为句中有“though尽管”表让步，说明她只有很小的进步。故选B项。 8. Bella, who is always cheerful, creates a friendly work atmosphere in her office every day, ________ her colleagues find pleasant and relaxing. A. where B. which C. when D. that 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：贝拉总是很开朗，每天在她的办公室里营造友好的工作氛围，她的同事们觉得这样的氛围轻松愉快。句中先行词为atmosphere，在非限定性定语从句中作动词find的宾语，所以用关系代词which引导。故选B。 【点睛】分析定语从句关键抓住两点：第一、找准先行词；第二、看先行词在定语从句中所作的成分。先行词往往为名词或代词，如本题中先行词为名词atmosphere，再分析先行词atmosphere在定语从句中所作的成分，将先行词atmosphere带到从句中作动词find的宾语，所以用关系代词which引导。 9. Children shouldn’t have access to violent films because they might ________ the things they see. A. indicate B. investigate C. innovate D. imitate 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：孩子们不应该接触暴力电影，因为他们可能会模仿他们所看到的东西。A. indicate指示；B. investigate调查；C. innovate改革；D. imitate模仿。根据“the things they see”及常识可知，孩子会模仿他们看到的行为。故选D。 10. That Peter has spent too much time on novels recently may________ his poor grade in the exam. A. answer for B. stand for C. account for D. apply for 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：Peter最近在小说上花了太多的时间，这可能是他考试成绩差的原因。A. answer for为……负责；B. stand for代表，象征；C. account for说明……的原因；D. apply for申请。根据“Peter has spent too much time on novels”可知，花太多时间看小说是成绩差的原因。故选C。 11. They studied these issues in detail and reached ________ I thought was appropriate conclusions. A. which B. where C. what D. that 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查宾语从句。句意：他们详细研究了这些问题，得出了我认为合适的结论。A. which哪一个；B. where哪里；C. what什么，所……的；D. that引导宾语从句无意义，只起连接作用。分析句子可知，空处引导宾语从句，引导词在从句中作主语，应用连接代词what引导。故选C项。 12. Mr. White, who ________ in Shanghai for seven years, is a manager of a company in Beijing. A. worked B. had worked C. was working D. has worked 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查时态。句意：怀特先生在上海工作了七年，现在是北京一家公司的经理。根据定语从句中时间状语for seven years及空后is a manager of a company in Beijing可知，此处陈述的是过去的事情，应用一般过去时。故选A。 13. The children went home from the grammar school, their lessons______ for the day. A. finishing B. finished C. had finished D. were finished 【答案】B 【解析】 【分析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：孩子们从语法学校回家，今天的作业写完了。根据句子结构判断，前后句没有连词，此处为独立主格结构，完成和逻辑主语课程是被动关系，功课是被完成，因此用过去分词。故选B。 【点睛】 14. You ________allow a golden opportunity to slip through your fingers or you will regret it later. A. may not B. wouldn’t C. needn’t D. mustn’t 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查情态动词辨析。句意：你千万不能让绝好的机会从指缝间溜走，否则你以后会后悔的。A. may not也许不；B. wouldn’t不会；C. needn’t不必；D. mustn’t一定不要。根据“or you will regret it later.”可知，一定不要将机会溜走，否则会后悔的，应用情态动词mustn’t。故选D。 15. —Do you know anything about Zhang Guimei? —________. She has been honored as a role model in China’s poverty alleviation fight. A. You got me there B. By all means C. By no means D. I couldn’t agree more 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查交际用语。句意：——你知道张桂梅吗?——当然。她被誉为中国扶贫斗争的榜样。A. You got me there你把我难倒了；B. By all means当然；C. By no means绝不；D. I couldn’t agree more我完全同意。根据“She has been honored as a role model in China’s poverty alleviation fight.”可知，当然知道张桂梅了。故选B。 第三节：完形填空(共20小题;每小题15分，满分30分) I sat and waited for Kathleen to speak. “Annie, ” she said, “A food bank that serves the elderly is asking for ____16____ .

Step 2: Get prepped (做好准备) Once the interview begins, resist the urge to watch yourself, and make sure you are looking at the camera as much as possible.

Though you may have extensive notes, try to act natural - do not read directly from any prepared statements, and don’t memorize answers to repeat.

It has been heartbreaking for us. What made him extraordinary was not only that he was a rising star. He had only recently collected the highest honors for young researchers at the White House. We truly admired him- as someone put it, "He always has a smile and a kind word for everyone." It is very hard to find someone who is extremely intelligent should be so nice a human being. I decided that we needed him to know our attitude and also how we are all praying for his recovery. I bought him a simple card which read, "Healing thoughts and wishes coming your way." I met all the students he worked closely with and got them to sign on it. Each student signed and also added a message. "We love you so much," "Please come back," "Thank you for being such an inspiring teacher”...These were some of the messages that were written. Most of the students were really glad we were doing this. He is still undergoing treatments and trying his best to stay optimistic and hopeful. I didn't see a sign of self-pity or sadness when I met him last week. Instead, he paid attention to every word of my presentation and asked me several questions related to my work. I was amazed at how much he gave his 100% on that day in spite of being in pain because of chemotherapy (化疗). He did not know if he even had another month to live. "I hope to be back this summer," he said, Needless to say, I saw an expression of joy and hope on his face as he opened the card. He said he was truly touched to see the messages from the students he worked with. There is one thing I learned from last week: It is so important to tell people how much they mean to us and what inspiration they are before it becomes too late. My professor, in spite of being too sick to teach classes, has managed to continue being a great teacher, introducing his last valuable message to us. 41. The professor was admired because ________ . A. he was very intelligent B. he had noble personalities C. he had won many honors D. he was very determined 42. The underlined word "attitude" in Paragraph 3 refers to the students’ ________ . A. anxiety to see him B. optimism about his illness C. admiration for him D. regret about being carelessness 43. When the author visited the professor at hospital, what surprised him was that the professor ________ . A. was still very confident B. was suffering from great pain C. still cared for others D. didn't know he would die soon 44. Of the following statements, the author may agree that ________ A. the professor loves his job very much B. the professor often feels sorry for himself C. the professor will go back to teach this summer D. few students supported the author's decision at first 45. What did the author learn from his visit to the professor last week? A. One should remain optimistic all the time. B. It is never too late to make a right decision. C. It is important to let people know about their importance. D. Teachers should have a positive influence on their students. 【答案】41. B 42. C 43. C 44. A 45. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者通过自己熟识的教授生病，并悟出人生道理——在为时已晚之前，告诉人们他们对我们有多重要以及他们有什么灵感是非常重要的。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句和第四句话“We truly admired him- as someone put it, "He always has a smile and a kind word for everyone." It is very hard to find someone who is extremely intelligent should be so nice a human being.(我们真的钦佩他——正如有人所说，“他总是对每个人有微笑和亲切的话语。”很难找到一个非常聪明的人应该是这么好的人)”可知，这位教授受钦佩的原因是有着高尚的品质。故选B项。 【42题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段第二句以及第三句话“We truly admired him- as someone put it, "He always has a smile and a kind word for everyone." It is very hard to find someone who is extremely intelligent should be so nice a human being.(我们真的很钦佩他——正如有人所说，“他总是对每个人都有微笑和亲切的话语。”很难找到一个非常聪明的人应该是这么好的人)”并结合第三段第一句话“I decided that we needed him to know our attitude and also how we are all praying for his recovery.(我决定我们需要他知道我们的态度，以及我们如何为他的康复祈祷)”可知，我们对教授的态度是对他的钦佩。故选C项。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段前三句话“He is still undergoing treatments, and trying his best to stay optimistic and hopeful. I didn't see a sign of self-pity or sadness when I met him last week. Instead, he paid attention to every word of my presentation and asked me several questions related to my work. I was amazed at how much he gave his 100% on that day in spite of being in pain because of chemotherapy (化疗).(他仍在接受治疗，并且尽最大努力保持乐观和希望。当我上周见到他时，我没有看到自怜或悲伤的迹象。相反，他注意我演讲的每一个字，并问了几个与我的工作有关的问题。我惊讶于他那天付出了100%的代价，尽管因为化疗（化疗）而疼痛)”可知，当作者去医院看望教授时，令作者惊讶的是，虽然教授已经生病，但仍然关心自己。故选C项。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Needless to say, I saw an expression of joy and hope on his face as he opened the card. He said he was truly touched to see the messages from the students he worked with.(毋庸置疑，当他打开卡片时，我看到他脸上露出喜悦和希望的表情。他说，看到他一起工作的学生的信息，他真的很感动)”可知，教授非常热爱他的工作。故选A项。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段前两句话“There is one thing I learned from last week: It is so important to tell people how much they mean to us and what inspiration they are before it becomes too late.(上周，我从中学到了一件事：在为时已晚之前，告诉人们他们对我们有多重要以及他们有什么灵感是非常重要的)”可知，作者通过对教授的拜访学习到的是，让人们知道他们的重要性是重要的。故选A项。 C In the past few decades, great progress has been made in the field of space exploration, which has enabled mankind to have a deeper understanding of the solar system, our place in it and in the universe. “We sent probes(探测仪)to every planet in the solar system. This is by far the best one,” said Clayton, vice president of Blue Origin. “Let’s focus right now on protecting the Earth environment, and then we’ll go from here. Space science and technology should be people-centric and application-centric, and focus on improving human life. We need to have a strong footing on the Earth, learn to solve the day-to-day problems of the society.” “Space technology can help achieve the 17 sustainable development goals to be achieved by 2030 set by the United Nations. Satellite monitoring can really help with agriculture.” said Victoria, CEO of a company working on sustainable development. “Through Global Navigation Satellite System, animals’ movement information recorded on self-recharging devices can be transmitted to the company’s server. Farmers can be alerted in real time if anomalies(反常现象)are detected. We can use it to ensure the traceability of the entire meat chain. As a result, it enables consumers to know that the beef they are eating does not come from protected areas or the cattle don’t contribute to deforestation.” As early as 2007, Michael Griffin, former Administrator of NASA, put forward the concept of the “space economy” in a speech. He is very optimistic about the market prospect of commercial space and said, “According to the latest data, the global space industry could reach $1 trillion in 2040, up from $378 billion currently. I believe more business models and space activities will be created in the future to achieve the economic scale of $1 trillion.” As an entrepreneur(创业者)herself, Victoria thinks the thriving space market will bring countless opportunities for entrepreneurs. She mentioned future settlements on Mars or on the Moon. “If we are going to develop a new society outside the Earth, we will need all types of applications and all types of startups. But coming back to the Earth, there are so many problems that need to be solved, and space technology can really help with that.” 46. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. A probe sent to other planets. B. The planet people are living on now. C. A successful space exploration. D. The solar system people are exploring. 47. In Clayton’s opinion, what should be the first concern about space technology? A. Improving people’s life on Earth. B. Providing more financial support. C. Sending more probes into the universe. D. The development of related technology. 48. How does Victoria support her statement about satellite monitoring in Paragraph 2? A. By making reasoning. B. By illustrating it from different aspects. C. By making comparison. D. By providing accurate figures. 49. What is Victoria’s attitude to the prospect of the space market? A. Optimistic. B. Skeptical. C. Indifferent. D. Wait-and-see. 50. What does the text mainly talk about? A. The necessity of space exploration. B. Breakthroughs in space exploration. C. Controversial issues about space technology. D. The possible application of space technology. 【答案】46. B 47. A 48. B 49. A 50. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人类在过去的几十年里在太空技术领域取得巨大成就，并介绍了空间技术在未来可能实现的应用以及对人类的帮助。 【46题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上一句“We sent probes(探测仪)to every planet in the solar system.(我们向太阳系的每一颗行星发射了探测器。)”以及下一句“Let’s focus right now on protecting the Earth environment, and then we’ll go from here.(让我们现在把重点放在保护地球环境上，然后从地球出发。)”可知，他所指的最好的就是指人类现在所生存的地球。故选B。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后两句“Space science and technology should be people-centric and application-centric, and focus on improving human life. We need to have a strong footing on the Earth, learn to solve the day-to-day problems of the society.(空间科学技术要以人为本、以应用为中心，以改善人类生活为重点。我们需要在地球上站稳脚跟，学会解决社会的日常问题。)”可知，在克莱顿看来，太空技术的首要关注点是改善地球上人们的生活。故选A。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Through Global Navigation Satellite System, animals’ movement information recorded on self-recharging devices can be transmitted to the company’s server. Farmers can be alerted in real time if anomalies(反常现象)are detected. We can use it to ensure the traceability of the entire meat chain. As a result, it enables consumers to know that the beef they are eating does not come from protected areas or the cattle don’t contribute to deforestation.(通过全球导航卫星系统，记录在自动充电设备上的动物运动信息可以传输到该公司的服务器。如果检测到异常情况，可以实时提醒农民。我们可以用它来确保整个肉链的可追溯性。因此，它让消费者知道他们吃的牛肉不是来自保护区，或者牛不会导致森林砍伐。)”可推断，她从几个不同方面说明了卫星监测系统的作用。故选B。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“As an entrepreneur(创业者)herself, Victoria thinks the thriving space market will bring countless opportunities for entrepreneurs. She mentioned future settlements on Mars or on the Moon. “If we are going to develop a new society outside the Earth, we will need all types of applications and all types of startups. But coming back to the Earth, there are so many problems that need to be solved, and space technology can really help with that.”(作为一名企业家，Victoria认为蓬勃发展的太空市场将为企业家们带来无数的机会。她提到了未来在火星或月球上的定居。“如果我们要在地球之外发展一个新社会，我们将需要各种类型的应用程序和各种类型的初创公司。但是回到地球，还有很多问题需要解决，而太空技术真的可以帮助解决这些问题。”)”可推断，Victoria对航天市场的前景是抱有乐观态度的。故选A。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Space science and technology should be people-centric and application-centric, and focus on improving human life.(空间科学技术要以人为本、以应用为中心，以改善人类生活为重点。)”以及文章第一段主要介绍了人类在空间技术上所取得的成就；第二、三、四段介绍了空间技术在未来可能实现的应用，以及这些应用对人类的帮助。所以这篇文章主要介绍空间技术的可能应用。故选D。 D When people have positive feelings for one another then they are able to sit down and talk about what really matters, that is, the true purpose and meaning of life. When envy and jealousy flee, truth has a rich soil to grow and ripen. In order to really talk, people have to be willing to admit their weakness, and open up. But if there is anger, envy, jealousy or feelings of superiority, truth cannot exist because everyone is measuring what they are saying, trying to avoid making themselves vulnerable in any way. Perhaps the biggest truth-killers of all are envy and jealousy. Envy is desiring what someone else has, while jealousy is feeling unhappy that someone has something that you would like. The objects of envy and jealousy can be material possessions such as jewelry and houses, and other intangibles such as popularity and respect. Most of us hold back when we think about being envious or jealous. But do we really understand how these feelings express themselves? It`s not always so obvious—unless we slow down and examine ourselves, we may miss the signs. We think to ourselves: That person who just won that award/contract/position doesn’t deserve it. She thinks her child’s so great but he’s not very good and is really a mediocre guy. Who does he think he is—he doesn’t know anything about that subject. We may not in truth want what the other person has, but we don’t want them to have it either. This is what we call “Dead-end Envy”. It’s the feeling of dissatisfaction that occurs when someone else owns/achieves something and you aren’t happy about it. If you turn envy or “Dead-end Envy” inside out, you get schadenfreude (幸灾乐祸), taking pleasure in someone else`s misfortune. In an earlier study, “neural correlates (神经关联) of envy and schadenfreude were tied together, with the magnitude (量级) of one predicting the strength of the other,” says researcher Matthew D. Lieberman who specializes in respect and how people get along. Can envy ever be positive? In terms of motivating people to push themselves to succeed—yes. But in terms of personal relationships? That’s harder to prove a positive. Once you accept that someone is your superior in one aspect or another, or has been blessed with a unique talent or quality, and they become a role model, envy may turn into something else, respect. 51. The author intends to tell us that when people talk with others, ________. A. envy and jealousy are unavoidable B. people don’t need to be open up C. people should measure what they are saying D. positive feelings help talk deeply. 52. About envy and jealousy, the author thinks that ________. A. there is no difference between them B. most people are willing to accept them C. they have a bad influence on truth D. they are easy to understand and recognize 53. What does the underlined word “mediocre” mean? A. Ordinary. B. Useless. C. Outstanding. D. Unique. 54. What can we conclude from Paragraph 7? A. Envy is the opposite of schadenfreude. B. “Dead-end Envy” can lead to schadenfreude. C. People with envy or jealousy have no sympathy. D. People always want what others have. 55. What is the best title of the passage? A. Envy and Jealousy, the Power of Success B The Harmfulness of Envy and Jealousy C. How to Overcome Envy and Jealousy Successfully D. Envy and Jealousy and Their Effects 【答案】51. D 52. C 53. A 54. B 55. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要讲的是羡慕和嫉妒及它们的影响。 【51题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“In order to really talk, people have to be willing to admit their weakness, and open up.(要想真正交谈，人们必须愿意承认自己的弱点，并敞开心扉。)”可知，作者想告诉我们，当人们与他人交谈时，积极的情绪有助于深入交谈。故选D。 【52题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“But if there is anger, envy, jealousy or feelings of superiority, truth cannot exist because everyone is measuring what they are saying, trying to avoid making themselves vulnerable in any way.(但如果存在愤怒、羡慕、嫉妒或优越感，真理就不可能存在，因为每个人都在衡量他们所说的话，试图避免以任何方式让自己变得脆弱。)”可知，关于羡慕和嫉妒，作者认为它们对真理有不良的影响，故选C。 【53题详解】 词句猜测题。根据倒数第三段的“he’s not very good(他不是很好)”可知，她认为自己的孩子好，别的孩子不好，也就是别的孩子很普通，因此划线词“mediocre”意为“普通的”，和ordinary意思相近，故选A。 【54题详解】 细节理解题。根据第七段的“If you turn envy or “Dead-end Envy” inside out, you get schadenfreude (幸灾乐祸)(如果你把羡慕或“陷入死胡同的嫉妒”从里到外表现出来，你就会幸灾乐祸)”可知，从第7段我们可以得出“陷入死胡同的嫉妒”会导致幸灾乐祸。故选B。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段的“In order to really talk, people have to be willing to admit their weakness, and open up. But if there is anger, envy, jealousy or feelings of superiority, truth cannot exist(但如果存在愤怒、羡慕、嫉妒或优越感，真理就不可能存在)”和第三段的“Perhaps the biggest truth-killers of all are envy and jealousy.(也许最大的真相杀手是羡慕和嫉妒。)”可知，本文主要讲的是羡慕和嫉妒，并列举了它们的影响，因此D选项“Envy and Jealousy and Their Effects(羡慕和嫉妒及它们的影响)”是最好的题目，故选D。 五、阅读表达：(共5 小题，每小题2分，共10分) 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Before entering college, I had heard so many stories about how stressful freshman year could get and that this would potentially be the most difficult experience I would ever have to go through. And yes, for the most part, those stories did live up to the reality. In the first several months, I was urged to improve my social skills and to befriend people. Personally, there was a clear struggle on wanting to adjust and not simply adapt. Adapting required a change in behavior for the sake of fitting in and I didn't want that. Luckily and eventually, I was able to find my own group. It just required extra work and patience. Naturally, there were academic obstacles that arose. The biggest one was my major. I was enrolled as a communication studies major. I chose it because it seemed like a safe haven. But I later discovered that it didn't actually fit my likes. After two quarters, serious thinking and several mini breakdowns, I switched to philosophy. Ever since I was younger, I have known I wanted to work in the field. It has always intrigued me. To be honest, I've never had to read such challenging texts in my life, but I enjoy it. It pushes me beyond my limits in a good way. It introduces me to concepts and theories that I've never heard of. More importantly, it doesn't only make me more logical. It also makes me more empathic (有移情作用的) and understanding of others. I eventually overcame the obstacles. As I recall it now, I'm thankful that the good always outweighed the bad. The good came in the form of new friends, significant learning and deepened self-understanding. As I head off to sophomore year, I plan to bring this good with me. 56. How was the author's freshman year in college?（no more than 5 words） 57. What difficulties did the author encounter in his first year in college?（no more than 10 words） 58. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 mean?（no more than 10 words） 59. What blessings did the author think happen to him during his freshman year?（no more than 15 words） 60. If you didn’t like your major in college, what would you do? Why?（no more than 25 words） 【答案】56. It was stressful and difficult. 57. Making adjustments and academic obstacles. 58. I have always been very interested in philosophy. / Philosophy has always interested/ appealed to me. 59. New friends significant learning and deepened self-understanding. /He made new friends, learned new knowledge and had a better understanding of himself. 60. I would switch to my favorite major. Because I will devote myself to what I really enjoy. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在大一时遇到了一些挑战，并成功克服的故事。 【56题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段“I had heard so many stories about how stressful freshman year could get and that this would potentially be the most difficult experience I would ever have to go through. And yes, for the most part, those stories did live up to the reality.(我听说过很多关于大一时压力有多大的故事，这可能是我不得不经历的最困难的事。确实，故事的大部分都符合现实)”可知，作者的大一是有压力且困难的。故答案为It was stressful and difficult. 【57题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段“Personally, there was a clear struggle on wanting to adjust and not simply adapt. (就我个人而言，在想要调整而不是简单地适应这个问题上，有一场明显的斗争)”和第三段“Naturally, there were academic obstacles that arose.(自然，出现了一些学业障碍)”可知，在大学的头几个月里，作出调整和学业的障碍困扰着作者。故答案为Making adjustments and academic obstacles. 【58题详解】 考查句意猜测。根据划线句子上文“Ever since I was younger, I have known I wanted to work in the field.(尽管那时我还小，我就已经知道我想要在这个领域工作)”和下文“To be honest, I've never had to read such challenging texts in my life, but I enjoy it.(说实话，我从来没有读过如此有挑战性的文章，但是我很享受)”可猜测，划线句子表达的意思是作者对哲学很感兴趣。故填I have always been very interested in philosophy. / Philosophy has always interested/ appealed to me. 【59题详解】 考查细节理解。根据最后一段“The good came in the form of new friends, significant learning and deepened self-understanding. (好的一面来自于新的朋友，重要的学习和加深的自我理解)”可知，作者认为在大学一年级庆幸他结交了新朋友，学习了新知识，对自己有了更好的了解。故答案为New friends, significant learning and deepened self-understanding. /He made new friends, learned new knowledge and had a better understanding of himself. 【60题详解】 开放题。考生陈述自己在大学里遇到不喜欢的专业怎么办，并说明理由。考生言之有理即可。参考答案为I would switch to my favorite major. Because I will devote myself to what I really enjoy. 六、书面表达：(满分25分) 61. 假设你是晨光中学的李津，英国友好校将派教师来你校参加为期一周的交流活动。活动期间，英方教师Chris将做一个有关西方艺术的讲座，现就讲座内容征求你校学生的意见。请根据以下提示给Chris写一封电子邮件： 1.你喜欢的讲座话题，从音乐、美术、舞蹈中任选其一； 2.选择该话题的原因及关于该话题你感兴趣的内容； 3.希望从中有何收获。 注意： 1.词数不少于100； 2.可适当加入细节，使内容充实、行文连贯； 3.开头和结尾已给出、不计入总词数。 Dear Chris, I’m Li Jin, a student at Chenguang High School. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Jin 【答案】Dear Chris, I’m Li Jin, a student at Chenguang High School.

Here are some steps to follow when preparing for the perfect video interview. Step 1: Start with the basics Before your interview, find out what platform or application the school uses for video interviews, and make sure that you know how to operate it. You need to set up a clear and focused interview environment. You also need a strong internet connection. Step 2: Get prepped (做好准备) Once the interview begins, resist the urge to watch yourself, and make sure you are looking at the camera as much as possible. Try to anticipate the questions that they will ask you. Interview questions all boil down to three basic categories: Tell us about yourself. What do you bring to our program/why should we admit you? Do you have any questions about the school? Before the interview, prepare at least two to three minutes on each of these topics. Step 3: Practice Practice your answers with a friend or mentor. Get them to ask you questions and answer them over video.

What made him extraordinary was not only that he was a rising star. He had only recently collected the highest honors for young researchers at the White House. We truly admired him- as someone put it, "He always has a smile and a kind word for everyone." It is very hard to find someone who is extremely intelligent should be so nice a human being. I decided that we needed him to know our attitude and also how we are all praying for his recovery. I bought him a simple card which read, "Healing thoughts and wishes coming your way." I met all the students he worked closely with and got them to sign on it. Each student signed and also added a message. "We love you so much," "Please come back," "Thank you for being such an inspiring teacher”...These were some of the messages that were written. Most of the students were really glad we were doing this. He is still undergoing treatments, and trying his best to stay optimistic and hopeful. I didn't see a sign of self-pity or sadness when I met him last week. Instead, he paid attention to every word of my presentation and asked me several questions related to my work. I was amazed at how much he gave his 100% on that day in spite of being in pain because of chemotherapy (化疗). He did not know if he even had another month to live. "I hope to be back this summer," he said, Needless to say, I saw an expression of joy and hope on his face as he opened the card. He said he was truly touched to see the messages from the students he worked with. There is one thing I learned from last week: It is so important to tell people how much they mean to us and what inspiration they are before it becomes too late. My professor, in spite of being too sick to teach classes, has managed to continue being a great teacher, introducing his last valuable message to us. 41. The professor was admired because ________ .

C In the past few decades, great progress has been made in the field of space exploration, which has enabled mankind to have a deeper understanding of the solar system, our place in it and in the universe. “We sent probes(探测仪)to every planet in the solar system. This is by far the best one,” said Clayton, vice president of Blue Origin. “Let’s focus right now on protecting the Earth environment, and then we’ll go from here. Space science and technology should be people-centric and application-centric, and focus on improving human life. We need to have a strong footing on the Earth, learn to solve the day-to-day problems of the society.” “Space technology can help achieve the 17 sustainable development goals to be achieved by 2030 set by the United Nations. Satellite monitoring can really help with agriculture.” said Victoria, CEO of a company working on sustainable development. “Through Global Navigation Satellite System, animals’ movement information recorded on self-recharging devices can be transmitted to the company’s server. Farmers can be alerted in real time if anomalies(反常现象)are detected. We can use it to ensure the traceability of the entire meat chain. As a result, it enables consumers to know that the beef they are eating does not come from protected areas or the cattle don’t contribute to deforestation.” As early as 2007, Michael Griffin, former Administrator of NASA, put forward the concept of the “space economy” in a speech. He is very optimistic about the market prospect of commercial space and said, “According to the latest data, the global space industry could reach $1 trillion in 2040, up from $378 billion currently. I believe more business models and space activities will be created in the future to achieve the economic scale of $1 trillion.” As an entrepreneur(创业者)herself, Victoria thinks the thriving space market will bring countless opportunities for entrepreneurs. She mentioned future settlements on Mars or on the Moon. “If we are going to develop a new society outside the Earth, we will need all types of applications and all types of startups. But coming back to the Earth, there are so many problems that need to be solved, and space technology can really help with that.” 46. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. A probe sent to other planets. B. The planet people are living on now. C. A successful space exploration. D. The solar system people are exploring. 47. In Clayton’s opinion, what should be the first concern about space technology? A. Improving people’s life on Earth. B. Providing more financial support. C. Sending more probes into the universe. D. The development of related technology. 48. How does Victoria support her statement about satellite monitoring in Paragraph 2? A. By making reasoning. B. By illustrating it from different aspects. C. By making comparison. D. By providing accurate figures. 49. What is Victoria’s attitude to the prospect of the space market? A. Optimistic. B. Skeptical. C. Indifferent. D. Wait-and-see. 50. What does the text mainly talk about? A. The necessity of space exploration. B. Breakthroughs in space exploration. C. Controversial issues about space technology. D. The possible application of space technology. D When people have positive feelings for one another then they are able to sit down and talk about what really matters, that is, the true purpose and meaning of life. When envy and jealousy flee, truth has a rich soil to grow and ripen. In order to really talk, people have to be willing to admit their weakness, and open up. But if there is anger, envy, jealousy or feelings of superiority, truth cannot exist because everyone is measuring what they are saying, trying to avoid making themselves vulnerable in any way. Perhaps the biggest truth-killers of all are envy and jealousy. Envy is desiring what someone else has, while jealousy is feeling unhappy that someone has something that you would like. The objects of envy and jealousy can be material possessions such as jewelry and houses, and other intangibles such as popularity and respect. Most of us hold back when we think about being envious or jealous. But do we really understand how these feelings express themselves? It`s not always so obvious—unless we slow down and examine ourselves, we may miss the signs. We think to ourselves: That person who just won that award/contract/position doesn’t deserve it. She thinks her child’s so great but he’s not very good and is really a mediocre guy. Who does he think he is—he doesn’t know anything about that subject. We may not in truth want what the other person has, but we don’t want them to have it either. This is what we call “Dead-end Envy”. It’s the feeling of dissatisfaction that occurs when someone else owns/achieves something and you aren’t happy about it. If you turn envy or “Dead-end Envy” inside out, you get schadenfreude (幸灾乐祸), taking pleasure in someone else`s misfortune. In an earlier study, “neural correlates (神经关联) of envy and schadenfreude were tied together, with the magnitude (量级) of one predicting the strength of the other,” says researcher Matthew D. Lieberman who specializes in respect and how people get along. Can envy ever be positive? In terms of motivating people to push themselves to succeed—yes. But in terms of personal relationships? That’s harder to prove a positive. Once you accept that someone is your superior in one aspect or another, or has been blessed with a unique talent or quality, and they become a role model, envy may turn into something else, respect. 51. The author intends to tell us that when people talk with others, ________. A. envy and jealousy are unavoidable B. people don’t need to be open up C. people should measure what they are saying D. positive feelings help talk deeply. 52.

Envy and Jealousy and Their Effects 五、阅读表达：(共5 小题，每小题2分，共10分) 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Before entering college, I had heard so many stories about how stressful freshman year could get and that this would potentially be the most difficult experience I would ever have to go through. And yes, for the most part, those stories did live up to the reality. In the first several months, I was urged to improve my social skills and to befriend people. Personally, there was a clear struggle on wanting to adjust and not simply adapt. Adapting required a change in behavior for the sake of fitting in and I didn't want that. Luckily and eventually, I was able to find my own group. It just required extra work and patience. Naturally, there were academic obstacles that arose. The biggest one was my major. I was enrolled as a communication studies major. I chose it because it seemed like a safe haven. But I later discovered that it didn't actually fit my likes. After two quarters, serious thinking and several mini breakdowns, I switched to philosophy. Ever since I was younger, I have known I wanted to work in the field. It has always intrigued me. To be honest, I've never had to read such challenging texts in my life, but I enjoy it. It pushes me beyond my limits in a good way. It introduces me to concepts and theories that I've never heard of. More importantly, it doesn't only make me more logical. It also makes me more empathic (有移情作用的) and understanding of others. I eventually overcame the obstacles. As I recall it now, I'm thankful that the good always outweighed the bad. The good came in the form of new friends, significant learning and deepened self-understanding. As I head off to sophomore year, I plan to bring this good with me. 56.
