“When I was young, I had so much energy and I loved building things. If I had an idea, I had to build it right now using what I could find around me,” says Danish artist Thomas Dambo. When Dambo was seven years old, he bought a mountain of cushions (垫子) from a nearby market to build a game room in his parents’ house. As a teenager, he built a “crazy” castle in his backyard.
Years later, 42-year-old Dambo is proudly showing his latest work: a giant (巨人) called Little Lui. Five meters tall, Little Lui is one of the six giants placed in the corners of Peel Region of Western Australia, which will be on show for at least a year. This work makes Dambo’s giants up to 99 around the world. His gentle giants have found homes in many different countries, as far as the United States, Belgium, China, Denmark, South Korea and now in Australia.
“For me, giants represent (代表) the voice of nature,” Dambo says. This deep respect for nature is the focus of Dambo’s building works. Dambo’s giants are made almost from local recycled wood: their faces from second-hand furniture and their hair from tree branches and leaves. Taking about 750 hours to complete, each giant is built out in nature.
“I hope by visiting the giants people will think of rubbish as a resource. I think it’s really important that next generations are connected to nature,” Dambo says. “That’s why I tried to build the giants to attract young people. I want people to be inspired and to realize they don’t need a lot to create something big and beautiful.”
4. Which of the following can best describe young Dambo?
A. Creative. B. Homesick. C. Powerful. D. Frightened.
5. What can we know about Little Lui?
A. It is kept underground. B. It’s Dambo’s first giant.
C. It will be shown to the public. D. It will be sent to Denmark.
6. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The comments on the giants. B. The appearance of the giants.
C. The basic theme of the giants. D. The expensive materials of the giants.
7. What does Dambo plan to do with his giants?
A. Inspire more people to take adventures.
B. Encourage the young to approach nature.
C. Help people spend less time playing games.
D. Call on the young to save natural resources.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。艺术家Thomas Dambo从小就喜欢搭建,现在通过利用可回收的木材等搭建巨人造型,吸引年轻人接近自然,创造美好事物。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“When Dambo was seven years old, he bought a mountain of cushions (垫子) from a nearby market to build a game room in his parents’ house. As a teenager, he built a ‘crazy’ castle in his backyard. (当Dambo七岁的时候,他从附近的市场买了一大堆垫子,在他父母的房子里建了一个游戏室。十几岁的时候,他在后院建了一座‘疯狂’的城堡)”可推知,Dambo小时候是很有创造力的。故选A项。

【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I think it’s really important that next generations are connected to nature.(我认为让下一代与自然保持联系非常重要)”和“That’s why I tried to build the giants to attract young people.(这就是为什么我试图建造巨人来吸引年轻人)”可知,Dambo利用他的巨人造型鼓励年轻人接近大自然。故选B项。

Do you love seeing beautiful lanterns outside? The best time to do this is during the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar (阴历) month. This year it is on Feb22, marking the end of Spring Festival celebrations.
Lanterns are a big part of the festival. One story says that the bright lanterns show respect for gods. Another says that people light lanterns to celebrate the declining (消退的) darkness of winter.
Watching lanterns is a great event. You see lanterns in any sizes and shapes you can imagine, from animals to plants and flowers. To make this activity more fun, people paste (粘贴) riddles (谜语) on the lanterns. “Ten plus ten, still is ten, ten minus ten, again is ten.” Guess what? It is a pair of gloves.
In some places, people like releasing sky lanterns, which are called Kongming lanterns. A sky lantern is a small hot air balloon made of paper, with an opening at the bottom, where there is a small fire source. When the bright lights fly high in the sky, people bless family members and make wishes. Releasing river lights is also a way to bless for each other. Usually, the lights are in the shape of a lotus (荷花).
In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals. Therefore, looking at lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other. A line from Xin Qiji, a poet during the Song Dynasty, shows this: “Anxiously, I searched for her in thousands, hundreds of ways. Suddenly I turned, and there she was in the declining light.”
8. When do people celebrate the Lantern Festival?
A. On the 22nd day of the first lunar month.
B. On the 15th day of the first solar month.
C. On the 22nd day of February every year.
D. On the 15th day of the first lunar month.
9. Which of the following statements about the Lantern Festival is TRUE?
A. People paste riddles to show off their knowledge.
B. Young girls were not allowed to go out on the day.
C. People light lanterns to drive animals away.
D. People make wishes when releasing lights.
10. How do you feel about the line from Xin Qiji?
A. Sad. B. Scared. C. Romantic. D. Anxious.
11. What would be the best title for the text?
A. The Origin of the Lantern Festival
B. River Lights on the Lantern Festival
C. Celebrations of the Lantern Festival
D. A day to Guess Lantern Riddles
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. C 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了元宵节的庆祝形式。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The best time to do this is during the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar (阴历) month.”(这样做的最好的时间是在阴历正月十五的元宵节)可知,人们在阴历正月十五庆祝元宵节。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“When the bright lights fly high in the sky, people bless family members and make wishes.”(当明亮的灯光在天空中高高飘扬时,人们祝福家人并许愿)可知,人们放灯时会许愿。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. A line from Xin Qiji, a poet during the Song Dynasty, shows this: “Anxiously, I searched for her in thousands, hundreds of ways. Suddenly I turned, and there she was in the declining light.””(在古代,元宵节也是一个浪漫的节日。宋朝诗人辛弃疾的一句诗就说明了这一点:“众里寻他千百度,蓦然回首,那人却在,灯火阑珊处”)可知,辛弃疾的词是很浪漫的。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Watching lanterns is a great event.”(赏灯是一个大的事件),第四段“In some places, people like releasing sky lanterns.”(在一些地方,人们喜欢放天灯),以及第五段“In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals.”(在古代,元宵节也是一个浪漫的节日。在那个时候,除了某些节日,年轻女孩是不允许经常外出的)可知,文章主要介绍了元宵节的庆祝形式。故选C项。

After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, stand-alone (独立的) rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-meter room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains (窗帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate (定位) a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room ahead of schedule and then need to scan a QR code (二维码) for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally nascent. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
12. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one?
A. Holding one person at a time. B. Standing in the living zone.
C. Offering open spaces. D. Having some advanced equipment.
13. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room?
A Let down curtains for privacy.
B. Pay 100 yuan first.
C. Use a smartphone to book a room ahead of time.
D. Have a shower before exercise.
14. What does the underlined word “nascent” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Simple. B. Popular. C. Satisfying. D. New.
15. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text?
A. To advertise a technology company. B. To introduce shared gym rooms.
C. To support the shared gym rooms. D. To point out the weaknesses of shared gym rooms.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。随着共享经济在中国的发展,共享健身房在北京的街道上出现了,文章主要介绍了共享健身房的出现及运作方法。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段内容“Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, stand-alone (独立的) rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities. (与为许多成员同时共享提供大型开放空间的普通健身房不同,新建的共享健身房是供一个人使用的小型独立房间,通常建在生活社区附近。)”可知,普通健身房为许多成员同时共享提供大型开放空间,共享健身房是供一个人使用的小型独立房间,由此可知,共享健身房与普通健身房的区别是一次容纳一个人。故选A项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段关键句“Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate (定位) a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room ahead of schedule and then need to scan a QR code (二维码) for use. (与使用共享单车类似,用户可以通过智能手机应用程序定位共享健身房,提前预订房间,然后需要扫描二维码才能使用。)”可知,用户需要通过智能手机应用程序定位共享健身房,提前预订房间,然后需要扫描二维码才能使用,由此可知,人们需要使用智能手机提前预订房间才能使用共享健身房。故选C项。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线单词下文“Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings. (去年12月,VRUN公司在办公楼和公寓楼设立了共享跑步机。)”可知,去年12月,VRUN公司在办公楼和公寓楼设立了共享跑步机,由此可知,共享健身体验的想法并不是完全新的,“New”意为“新的”,能够表达画线单词在句中的意思。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,结合第一段内容“After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing. (在自行车和雨伞在中国各地可共享后,一些公司开始关注健身市场,因此共享健身房在北京的街道上出现了。)”可知,随着共享经济在中国的发展,共享健身房在北京的街道上出现了,文章主要介绍了共享健身房的出现及运作方法,由此可知,作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍共享健身房。故选B项。

Why is Chinese a Good Language to Learn
If there’s one language in the world that’s worth learning, it’s the Chinese language. You must be wondering why. ____16____
Gain the job opportunities. With the steady development for decades, China has become the second largest economic power in the world while keeping closely connected with the west. ____17____ It helps a lot if you’re looking to work in a career that involves dealing with Chinese buyers or suppliers.
Know about the history and culture. ____18____ In fact, China has had a significant say in the history of the world. It’s agreed that four great inventions — namely paper-making, printing, gunpowder and the compass — made their way from China to Europe via the famous Silk Road. To really understand the contribution of this part of the world and have a deep insight into the history of Asia, speaking the language can be beneficial.
____19____ Chinese literature, both ancient and modern, comes from an entirely different cultural background than literature written in the West. To really appreciate it, however, you have to read it in the original language. Many works of Chinese literature haven’t been translated into English, so you have no choice but to enjoy them as they stand. If you want to understand modern China, learning the Chinese language is vital.
Enjoy the food. In Britain, we’re familiar with Chinese food — or at least, a Westernized version of it. By learning the Chinese language, you’ll start to understand exactly what all of those words on the menu mean. In time, you might feel more comfortable ordering something that’s a little bit less familiar. ____20____
A. Translate the literature.
B. Appreciate the literature.
C Here come a few good reasons to learn the language.
D. Therefore, the ability to speak Chinese language is pretty valuable.

G. Chinese culture has had a great influence on the world for thousands of years.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了煎饼这种中国街头小吃的制作过程、历史渊源及其受欢迎程度。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:观看制作煎饼的过程是一次有趣的体验。空处需用动名词作主语,句首首字母需大写。故填Watching。
【37题详解】
考查副词。句意:这几乎和真正吃一个煎饼一样好。空处需用副词作状语修饰动名词eating,actual的副词为actually“实际上,真正地”。故填actually。
【38题详解】
考查连词。句意:如果/当你不想要其中的一些,就说出来!根据空后“just say so! ”和空前“Then the pancake will be topped with different fillings. ”可知,空处需用if引导条件状语从句,也可用用when引导时间状语从句,句首首字母需大写。故填If/When。
【39题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:选择馅料的自由很容易满足不同顾客的口味。different后需接可数名词复数,customer意为“顾客”,其复数形式为customers。故填customers。

【42题详解】

考查动词不定式。句意:有一次,他的士兵们丢了炊具后,他命令厨师做一些面糊,把它铺在火上的盾牌上。order sb. to do sth.“命令某人做某事”,固定搭配,所以空处需用动词不定式作宾语补足语。故填to make。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:士兵们后来发现这种食物很美味,这让他们精力充沛。空处需用形容词作宾语补足语,taste的形容词为tasty“美味的”。故填tasty。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:今天,这种小吃在世界许多地方继续流行。its是形容词性物主代词,后需接名词,popular的名词为popularity“流行,受欢迎”。故填popularity。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming. “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was not something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.
注意:
1.续写的词数应为80左右;

_________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn't notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.” Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn't always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者和Kate是室友,作者不是一个爱整洁的人,而Kate却非常有条理,喜欢整洁。这天,Kate发现作者的鞋子在自己床底下,冲作者发火,之后Kate接到了一个电话,得知她的奶奶病得很重,非常伤心,在被子里哭泣。作者见状同情起了Kate,主动打扫卫生,Kate也原谅了作者,他们在剩下的日子里也能好好相处了。
【详解】1.段落续写:
由首句内容“慢慢地,我收好了铅笔,收回了书,整理了我的床,擦了袜子,扫了地板,甚至她那边的地板。”可知,后文可描写Kate看到作者打扫房间时的反应,以及这件事带给他们的影响。
2.续写线索:作者主动打扫卫生——Kate感谢作者——作者和Kate成为好室友——得出感悟

“When I was young, I had so much energy and I loved building things. If I had an idea, I had to build it right now using what I could find around me,” says Danish artist Thomas Dambo. When Dambo was seven years old, he bought a mountain of cushions (垫子) from a nearby market to build a game room in his parents’ house. As a teenager, he built a “crazy” castle in his backyard.
Years later, 42-year-old Dambo is proudly showing his latest work: a giant (巨人) called Little Lui. Five meters tall, Little Lui is one of the six giants placed in the corners of Peel Region of Western Australia, which will be on show for at least a year. This work makes Dambo’s giants up to 99 around the world. His gentle giants have found homes in many different countries, as far as the United States, Belgium, China, Denmark, South Korea and now in Australia.
“For me, giants represent (代表) the voice of nature,” Dambo says. This deep respect for nature is the focus of Dambo’s building works. Dambo’s giants are made almost from local recycled wood: their faces from second-hand furniture and their hair from tree branches and leaves. Taking about 750 hours to complete, each giant is built out in nature.
“I hope by visiting the giants, people will think of rubbish as a resource. I think it’s really important that next generations are connected to nature,” Dambo says. “That’s why I tried to build the giants to attract young people. I want people to be inspired and to realize they don’t need a lot to create something big and beautiful.”
4. Which of the following can best describe young Dambo?
A. Creative. B. Homesick. C. Powerful. D. Frightened.
5. What can we know about Little Lui?
A. It is kept underground. B. It’s Dambo’s first giant.
C. It will be shown to the public. D. It will be sent to Denmark.
6. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The comments on the giants. B. The appearance of the giants.
C. The basic theme of the giants. D. The expensive materials of the giants.
7. What does Dambo plan to do with his giants?
A. Inspire more people to take adventures.
B. Encourage the young to approach nature.
C. Help people spend less time playing games.
D. Call on the young to save natural resources.

Do you love seeing beautiful lanterns outside? The best time to do this is during the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar (阴历) month. This year it is on Feb22, marking the end of Spring Festival celebrations.
Lanterns are a big part of the festival. One story says that the bright lanterns show respect for gods. Another says that people light lanterns to celebrate the declining (消退的) darkness of winter.
Watching lanterns is a great event. You see lanterns in any sizes and shapes you can imagine, from animals to plants and flowers. To make this activity more fun, people paste (粘贴) riddles (谜语) on the lanterns. “Ten plus ten, still is ten, ten minus ten, again is ten.” Guess what? It is a pair of gloves.
In some places, people like releasing sky lanterns, which are called Kongming lanterns. A sky lantern is a small hot air balloon made of paper, with an opening at the bottom, where there is a small fire source. When the bright lights fly high in the sky, people bless family members and make wishes. Releasing river lights is also a way to bless for each other. Usually, the lights are in the shape of a lotus (荷花).
In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals. Therefore, looking at lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other. A line from Xin Qiji, a poet during the Song Dynasty, shows this: “Anxiously, I searched for her in thousands, hundreds of ways. Suddenly I turned, and there she was in the declining light.”
8. When do people celebrate the Lantern Festival?
A. On the 22nd day of the first lunar month.
B. On the 15th day of the first solar month.
C. On the 22nd day of February every year.
D. On the 15th day of the first lunar month.
9. Which of the following statements about the Lantern Festival is TRUE?
A. People paste riddles to show off their knowledge.
B. Young girls were not allowed to go out on the day.
C. People light lanterns to drive animals away.
D. People make wishes when releasing lights.
10 How do you feel about the line from Xin Qiji?
A. Sad. B. Scared. C. Romantic. D. Anxious.
11. What would be the best title for the text?
A. The Origin of the Lantern Festival
B. River Lights on the Lantern Festival
C. Celebrations of the Lantern Festival
D. A day to Guess Lantern Riddles

After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, stand-alone (独立的) rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-meter room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains (窗帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower.
Similar to using a shared bike users can locate (定位) a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room ahead of schedule and then need to scan a QR code (二维码) for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally nascent. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
12. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one?
A. Holding one person at a time. B. Standing in the living zone.
C. Offering open spaces. D. Having some advanced equipment.
13. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room?
A. Let down curtains for privacy.

Why is Chinese a Good Language to Learn
If there’s one language in the world that’s worth learning, it’s the Chinese language. You must be wondering why. ____16____
Gain the job opportunities. With the steady development for decades, China has become the second largest economic power in the world while keeping closely connected with the west. ____17____ It helps a lot if you’re looking to work in a career that involves dealing with Chinese buyers or suppliers.
Know about the history and culture. ____18____ In fact, China has had a significant say in the history of the world.

If you want to understand modern China, learning the Chinese language is vital.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming. “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was not something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.

1.续写的词数应为80左右;
2.按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor,even on her side.
