Text 10 Today，I’ll talk about a great artist，Leonardo da Vinci.He was born in 1452 in the town of Vinci，near Florence，Italy.At 15，Leonardo went to work with a famous artist.At the age of 20，he was already a master painter.Although da Vinci was a great painter，he never gave up his interest in other subjects.For example，he drew a flying machine 400 years before the airplane was invented.In all，da Vinci designed more than 1,000 inventions.As a matter of fact，da Vinci started many projects that he never finished.He was always more interested in planning projects than doing them.He often quickly lost interest in one project and couldn’t wait to start another.So he completed very few paintings.Da Vinci took four years to paint the Mona Lisa.Unfortunately，the man who ordered the painting didn’t like it and refused to pay him.However，ten years later，da Vinci sold it to the King of France.The King hung it in the Louvre Palace in Paris.Today the Mona Lisa still hangs in the Louvre，which is now a museum. 第二部分　阅读(共两节，满分 50 分) 第一节　(共15 小题；每小题2.5分，满分 37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Beautiful Guatemala is a land rich in diversity and cultural heritage.Whether you hope to summit a volcano，hike through the jungle or explore ancient ruins，Guatemala will not disappoint. Tikal National Park Tikal National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most famous places in Guatemala.Tikal covers an estimated 46 miles(around 74 km) and is one of the most extraordinary archaeological sites in Central America.It is here，centuries ago，that the ancient Mayan civilisation boomed. Chichicastenango “Chichi”，as it’s known by the local K’iche population，hosts the largest market in Central America.The town comes alive on Thursdays and Sundays when vendors(小贩) come from surrounding areas to display their goods.The market bursts with varied colors and a lively atmosphere，stocking everything from vividly-colored cloth to traditional carved wooden masks. Guatemala City Brightly graffitied(涂鸦) walls line the busy streets in Guatemala City where you’ll find trendy stores，relaxing bars，and diverse art galleries.Make sure to check out La Esquina，an indoor food market with some of the best food stalls in the city.The Museo Popol Vuh is a leading museum in the world of Mayan art.Here you will be able to spend a couple of hours appreciating the incredible and comprehensive collection of Mayan as well as colonial art. Volcano Acatenango Volcano Acatenango towers almost 4,000 metres above the surrounding landscape just outside Antigua.The hike to the summit of this volcano is one of the toughest，yet most popular，in Guatemala.Not only will you get to appreciate the breathtaking views，but you will also have a bird’s-eye view of the nearby(and extremely active) Volcano Fuego. 语篇解读　这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了拥有丰富文化遗产的拉丁美洲国家危地马拉的一些著名景点。 21．What’s the best choice for someone interested in Mayan history? A．Tikal National Park. B．Chichicastenango. C．Guatemala City. D．Volcano Acatenango. 答案　A 解析　推理判断题。根据Tikal National Park部分中“It is here，centuries ago，that the ancient Mayan civilisation boomed.”可知，古玛雅文明在此繁荣，因此如果游客对玛雅历史感兴趣，可以去蒂卡尔国家公园。故选A。 22．What do we know about Guatemala City?

D．Museo Popol Vuh is a great food market. 答案　B 解析　推理判断题。根据Guatemala City部分中“Here you will be able to spend a couple of hours appreciating the incredible and comprehensive collection of Mayan as well as colonial art.”可知，这里有很多艺术作品，因此对热爱艺术的人来说，这是旅游的绝佳目的地。故选B。 23．What is special about Volcano Acatenango? A．A bird view of Guatemala City. B．The highest tower in Guatemala. C．The hike to the volcano summit. D．It is an extremely active volcano. 答案　C 解析　推理判断题。根据Volcano Acatenango部分中“The hike to the summit of this volcano is one of the toughest，yet most popular，in Guatemala.”可知，攀登该火山顶峰是最艰难，也是最受欢迎的徒步旅行，因此可推测这也是该火山特殊的地方。故选C。 B Charlie Chaplin，a British comedian，producer，writer，director and composer，is widely regarded as the greatest comic artist of the screen and one of the most important figures in the film history. Chaplin was named after his father，a British entertainer.He spent his early childhood with his mother，the singer Hannah Hill.After she and his father separated，Charlie took the place of his mentally unstable mother to appear on the stage.However，he and his mother soon separated from each other because the sick Hill was sent to a hospital.Then，Charlie was sent to a series of boarding schools. Using his mother’s show-business contacts，Charlie became a professional entertainer in 1897 when he joined the Eight Lancashire Lads，a dancing act.His following stage characters include a small role in William Gillette Sherlock Holmes (1899)．While touring America with the Karno company in 1913，Chaplin was signed to appear in Mack Sennett’s Keystone comedy films.Though Making a Living(1914) was not the failure that historians have claimed，Chaplin’s first screen character did not show him to best advantage.To come up with a more workable screen image，Chaplin created an outfit(全套设备) consisting of a too-small coat，too-large pants and a walking stick.As a finishing touch，he put on a mustache(胡子)．It was in his second Keystone film，Kid Auto Races at Venice(1914)，that Chaplin’s classic screen character，“the Little Tramp(流浪汉)”，was born. In truth，Chaplin did not always portray(描绘) a tramp; in many of his films his character was employed as a waiter，store clerk，stagehand，fireman，and the like.But the Tramp’s attraction was universal：audiences loved his cheekiness(厚脸皮)，unexpected bravery and especially his recovery in the face of difficulties which moved the audience most.Some historians have traced the Tramp’s origins to Chaplin’s Dickensian childhood，while others have suggested that the character had its roots in the motto(座右铭) of Chaplin’s teacher，Fred Karno：“Keep it eager，gentlemen，keep it eager.” Whatever the case，within months after his movie was on，Chaplin was the screen’s biggest star. 语篇解读　这是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了卓别林的生平，包括卓别林的家庭背景和经典角色等。与此同时强调了卓别林在电影史上的主要成就和重要地位。 24．Which word best describes Chaplin’s early life?

B．His performances in another country. C．His mother’s serious health problem. D．His father’s disapproval of their meeting. 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段的“However，he and his mother soon separated from each other because the sick Hill was sent to a hospital.”可知，他母亲严重的健康问题使卓别林与母亲分开。故选C。 26．What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about Chaplin? A．His early works. B．His main characters. C．The reason for his success. D．His relationship with others. 答案　B 解析　段落大意题。根据第三段第二、四和最后一句可知，第三段中关于卓别林的描述更多的是围绕他的经典角色展开的，即第三段主要讲述的是他扮演过的主要角色。故选B。 27．Which aspect of the Tramp moved the audience most? A．His action with a walking stick. B．His unique and serious appearance. C．His special learning experience.

Currently，CRISPR is used to change the genetic material in specific cells.By changing the structure of immune cells，it helps recognize and fight cancer.The same technology is now used in a special machine called Sherlock，which，of course，is named after the famous investigator Sherlock Holmes.They do not，however，use Sherlock to change fish cells.Instead，the ocean researchers catch the fish，collect a small amount of mucus(黏液) and then test the cells to find the genetic makeup of the fish.It can be done in about 30 minutes.In the past，the researchers would have to wait weeks or months to get test results. The researchers have found that the technology is extremely helpful when looking at different species of Chinook salmon，because they look nearly the same.However，some of them are endangered，and the scientists need to keep track of them. In the past，the scientists would catch the Chinook salmon and measure them to tell them apart.“It’s not very accurate，” said Andrea Schreier，an associate professor at the University of California in Davis.Now she is working on the salmon.Schreier said when they catch the fish，the Sherlock machine can quickly tell them if they have one of the special salmon.It’s important because it allows the scientists to do things that will help the endangered salmon live longer.For example，they can catch them in lakes far away from the coast and take them by truck to the San Francisco Bay.In the past，the fish might have tried to make it to the Bay by swimming in rivers.However，due to climate change，the river water is sometimes too warm for the fish to make the trip safely. Schreier said she feels good about the project because she likes being able to assist with conservation.“I really want to work to maintain our ecosystems and our native populations as much as possible，given all of the pressures that we humans place on them through our different activities.” 语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种叫作Sherlock的机器及其所使用的CRISPR技术。科研人员通过该技术能够更快更准确地辨别生物的种类。 28．Which of the following best describes the technology? A．Immature. B．Efficient. C．Inaccurate. D．Economical. 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“It can be done in about 30 minutes.In the past，the researchers would have to wait weeks or months to get test results.”可知，这项技术大约30分钟就可以完成检测工作，比以往数周或数月才能得到测试结果要有效率。故选B。 29．What do the new technology and the traditional way have in common? A．They originally aimed at detecting cancer. B．They test the fish mucus to tell them apart. C．They are carried out by researchers in the lab. D．They help researchers tell different salmons apart. 答案　D 解析　推理判断题。根据文章第四段中“In the past，the scientists would catch the Chinook salmon and measure them to tell them apart.”以及“Schreier said when they catch the fish，the Sherlock machine can quickly tell them if they have one of the special salmon.”可知，新旧方法都可以帮助研究人员区分不同种类的鲑鱼。故选D。 30．What can be inferred about the Chinook salmons? A．They will soon die out. B．They are of the same size. C．They are used to cool water. D．They are now well protected. 答案　C 解析　推理判断题。根据文章第四段中“However，due to climate change，the river water is sometimes too warm for the fish to make the trip safely.”可知，气候变暖导致河水变热，使得这种鱼的迁徙变得危险，由此可推知，这种鱼适宜在较凉爽的水域中生存。故选C。 31．What do we know about Andrea Schreier from the text? A．She is rather devoted to the conservation. B．She can now spend less time on her work. C．She thinks her work needs improvement. D．She thinks humans are greatly pressured. 答案　A 解析　细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中Andrea Schreier的话“I really want to work to maintain our ecosystems and our native populations as much as possible”可知，Andrea Schreier想要尽力维持生态系统和地方种群的稳定，即她对自然保护工作十分投入。故选A。 D You may have been told to “look on the good side” or to “see the cup as half full”．It is likely that the people making these comments are positive thinkers.Researchers are finding more and more evidence that optimism and positive thinking have many benefits. When faced with stressful situations，positive thinkers are more effective than pessimists(悲观主义者)．Rather than dwelling on their frustrations or things that they cannot change，they will design a plan of action and ask others for help and advice. In recent years，researchers have found that your mind can have a powerful impact on your body.Immunity(免疫力) is one area where your thoughts and attitudes can have a particularly powerful influence.In one study，researchers found that motivation in brain areas associated with negative emotions led to a weakened immune response to a flu vaccine.Researchers Segerstrom and Sephton found that people who were optimistic about a specific and important part of their lives，such as how well they were doing in school，showed a stronger immune response than those who had a more negative view of the situation. Positive thinking can not only affect your ability to cope with stress and your immunity，but also affect your overall happiness，including reducing the risk of death due to cardiovascular problems，less depression and an increased lifespan. Although researchers don’t entirely understand why positive thinking is beneficial to health，some people believe that positive people may lead to healthier lifestyles.By coping better with stress and avoiding unhealthy behaviors，they are able to improve their health and happiness. It may not be surprising to learn that positive thinking can play an important role in the ability to adapt.When dealing with a challenge，optimists usually think about what they can do to solve the problem.Instead of giving up hope，they make use of their resources and are willing to ask others for help. 语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章指出越来越多的研究发现，保持积极乐观的心态对身体健康大有裨益。 32．What does the underlined part “dwelling on” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Calling on. B．Living on. C．Deciding on. D．Focusing on. 答案　D 解析　词义猜测题。根据第二段画线词所在句“相对于dwelling on遇到的挫折或是那些自己无法改变的事情，他们会制订行动计划并向他人寻求帮助和建议”可知，乐观的人不会专注于挫折和无法改变的事情，即画线词dwelling on与focusing on同义，表示“老是想着，专注于”。故选D项。 33．What do researchers find about a positive mind? A．It is a complex system. B．It is key to people’s emotions. C．It can make immunity strengthened. D．It leads to a weaker immune response. 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知，积极的思想可以增强人的免疫力。故选C项。 34．Why can positive people lead a healthier life? A．They seldom have stress. B．They have a balanced diet. C．They deal with stress better. D．They can solve problems on their own. 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据第五段中“positive people may lead to healthier lifestyles”及最后一句可知，积极乐观的人能更好地应对压力，从而生活得更健康。故选C项。 35．What is a suitable title for the text? A．Strengths of Positive Thinking B．Positive and Negative Thinking C．Ways to Form Positive Thinking D．Stress and Positive Thinking 答案　A 解析　标题归纳题。通读全文，尤其是第一段末句可知，研究发现，保持积极乐观的心态对人大有裨益，故A选项贴合主题，适合作文章标题。故选A项。 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。 Your joke never works？Or，being humorous is just too hard for you? Some even think that being funny is something people are born with，not to be learned. 36 Tell funny stories.Sometimes，the funniest thing you can do is to tell a funny story. 37 However，your audience will likely find that something that actually happened will be a little more humorous.Think of a few true funny things and tell those stories when it is proper. Make the end funny.When you try to surprise your friends with a funny story or joke，put the surprise at the end. 38 You might say “And do you know what was in my car when I opened the door，Rebecca? A cat！” This will be funnier than saying “And，Rebecca，a cat was in my car when I opened the door！” 39 Check out comedy clubs in your area and study the comedians.What kinds of jokes or stories worked with the audience and what didn’t? Notice what things made you laugh the most and tell similar stories and jokes in your personal life.You can also watch comedy shows online if you can’t find a local club. Keep a journal to record funny things.Not only will this help you remember funny stories to tell later，it will also train you to look for comedic moments in your own life. 40 Every time you notice and write down something humorous，you’ll be getting more practice! A．Go to a local comedy club. B．Use your body language to be funny. C．Sharing jokes is great at some point，too. D．It might be difficult for you to make others laugh aloud. E．Over time，this will help you have a better sense of humor. F．However，the truth is that you can learn to be a funnier person. G．This will make sure they don’t laugh until you’re finished with your sentence. 36．答案　F 解析　根据前文“Some even think that being funny is something people are born with，not to be learned.”可知，很多人认为幽默是与生俱来的，不是靠后天努力得来的。下文则介绍了如何变得更幽默，由此可知，设空处应该与前文构成转折关系，提出幽默是可以学习和培养的。故选F。 37．答案　C 解析　根据前文“Tell funny stories.Sometimes，the funniest thing you can do is to tell a funny story.”可知，讲有趣的故事有助于变得幽默，设空处应该与前文构成并列，指出其他讲有趣的东西也有助于变得幽默。故选C。 38．答案　G 解析　根据前文“When you try to surprise your friends with a funny story or joke，put the surprise at the end.”可知，此处建议当你想用一个有趣的故事或笑话给你的朋友一个惊喜时，把惊喜放在最后，设空处应该解释这样做的原因。G选项中This指代前文的内容即把惊喜放在最后，这样做可以确保他们在你说完之前不会笑。故选G。 39．答案　A 解析　根据后文“Check out comedy clubs in your area and study the comedians.”可知，通过加入喜剧俱乐部或者研究喜剧演员都可以增强自己的幽默感。A选项“Go to a local comedy club.”能够概括本段大意，符合语境。故选A。 40．答案　E 解析　根据前文“Keep a journal to record funny things.Not only will this help you remember funny stories to tell later，it will also train you to look for comedic moments in your own life.”可知，用日记记录有趣的事有不少好处，空处应指出这种习惯带来的其他好处——提升幽默感。E选项中的this指代前文的“Keep a journal to record funny things”。故选E。 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。 My daughter had talent for acting.When Alex was accepted into New York University’s musical theater program，I 41 what dress I’d wear to her Broadway debut(初次登台)．But now she decided to be an exercise instructor.It was 42 for me. “I thought 43 at gyms was just to help you pay the bills，wasn’t it？” I asked when Alex 44 her full-time job at a gym. “Acting was my childhood dream，” she explained.“I loved 45 ，but my adult self wants to help people be 46 .” Even after Alex earned her personal training certification，I still couldn’t accept her 47 .When an infectious disease shut New York’s gyms and Alex returned jobless，my suggestion of working on her acting website was 48 .Instead，she launched online kettle-bell classes and rounded up clients using Instagram.Her 49 took off，and our house became her virtual studio.
