In my childhood, my mother spent her evening hours doing something for someone else. Sometimes she knitted (编织) hats for babies, and at other times, she cooked chicken soup for sick neighbors. Therefore, I wasn’t surprised when one evening my mother announced she had undertaken a new project.
“I am going to telephone seniors,” said my mother. “Every night? But you don’t even know these people.” “It doesn’t matter,” she said. “What’s important is that I listen.” I was sixteen years old and couldn’t understand why my mother was willing to spend her evenings talking to strangers. She had friends and my two older sisters to call if she felt lonely. “They will talk your ear off. Some people didn’t even stop to catch breath,” I said.
My attitude didn’t stop my mother’s enthusiasm for the project. That evening, she settled on the sofa and dialed. For a while, I listened as she asked the woman on the other line about her day and what she had eaten for dinner. When she finished the call, I said, “Why do you care whether she had cookies or rice pudding for dessert?” My mother grasped one of my hands and gave it a slight squeeze. “I’m the only person she talked to today.”
It took me more than thirty years to fully understand the meaning of that statement. Now, as my mother is nearing eighty, I find myself thinking about those nightly calls she used to make. I am often the only person who telephones my mother, and sometimes I’m the only person she speaks to all day. I ask her what she cooked for dinner, but mostly I just listen as she describes a walk she took, or how her dog Lucky stole foods from the refrigerator. I realize that my mother’s calls were life lines that ensured housebound seniors remained connected to the world. Without her, their world would have been empty.
4. What is the mother’s purpose of calling the seniors?
A. To care about their life.
B. To know what they eat for dinner.
C. To make them feel less lonely.
D. To teach them how to make desserts.
5. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. They will talk all the time on the phone.
B. They will blame others’ wrong doings.
C. They will be tired of listening to others.
D. They will make you feel really satisfied.
6. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The author started to telephone seniors as her mother.
B. The author realized the value of her mother’s efforts.
C. The author’s mother preferred to live alone.
D. The author’s mother still remains disconnected to the world.
7. What is the suitable title for the passage?
A. Call parents often, love them always
B. Mother’s evenings
C. A new project
D. Nightly calls lifeline calls
C
Pigs may be more intelligent than people thought, as shown in a study where pigs used a joystick (操纵杆) and played a video game. Researchers used 2-year-old Panepinto micro pigs called Ebony and Ivory, as well as Hamlet and Omelet, 3-month-old Yorkshire pigs. Researchers first taught these pigs how to play with a joystick, teaching them the word, “joystick”. Next, on the words “watch the screen”, they learned how to watch targets (目标) on the screen. Of course, praise was given to the active pigs winning a game.
During the experiment, all pigs performed well. As they became more successful, the level of difficulty increased, just like in human video games! At first, the pigs had to hit a three-walled target which was then reduced to two walls and then one wall.
All pigs did well with the three-walled targets; however, the Panepinto pigs performed better on the more difficult levels. One disadvantage for the Yorkshire pigs was that they simply grew so large that they could no longer fit in their test. After a few months, Omelet and Hamlet were taken away from the experiment.
Dr. Candace Croney, a leading animal behavior scientist in Cambridge, said, “The findings of the study are important because what we do to pigs matters to them. It would be nice for people to realize how special pigs are, and how much more intelligent they may be than we recognized. The researchers said that the pigs’ actions were deliberate (故意的). This led them to believe that pigs were able to, successfully do new tasks.
“It may encourage other researchers to use touch screens and computer technology to study pigs intelligence in the future,” Croney said. The team hopes this type of research will make people pay more attention to this farm animal and show people how they can change the lives of animals.
8. What did the researchers do to the pigs at the beginning?
A. They studied their habits. B. They gave them enough food.
C. They trained them to play a game. D. They gave them special names.
9. What could we find about the pigs in the experiment?
A. They could keep focused for a long time.
B. They tried hard to win the games for praise.
C. They did all the tasks without any difficulty.
D. They got harder tasks as their performance improved.
10. What made Omelet and Hamlet unsuitable for the experiment later?
A. Their intelligence. B. Their body size.
C. Their power. D. Their weight.
11. What is Croney’s attitude towards the results of the study?
A. Positive. B. Doubtful.
C. Uncertain D. Surprised.
D
Studying English for an hour once a week isn’t usually enough to make any real progress. The best way to quickly improve your English is to spend at least a few minutes practicing every day. Get yourself concentrated as much as possible every time you study, and challenge yourself to listen to , read ,and even say things in English that you think might be too difficult for you.
The right attitude can make the difference between failure and success. Stop thinking of yourself as someone who is learning English, and start thinking of yourself as someone who speaks English. It’s a small change, but it will make you feel more confident and help you to use the English you already know more effectively.
This also means you need to start thinking in English. If you want to say the word “apple” in English, for example, right now you probably think of the word in your native language first, and then try to think of the correct word in English. Instead, try imaging a picture of an apple, and then just think the English word “apple”. Real fluency happens when you stop mentally translating conversations.
When most students listen to a native English-speaker they focus on understanding what all the words mean. This is definitely important, but there is a lot more you can learn from listening. Try listening not just to what the words mean, but to how the person says them. Notice which words the person links together in a sentence, or when they say “ya” instead of “you”. Try to remember these details the next time you speak and your English will begin to sound more natural.
12. What can we do if we want to make progress in English learning ?
A. We need to practice English every day.
B. We should study English for an hour once a week.
C. We must be concentrated as much as possible all the time.
D. We should challenge ourselves to speak at a higher level.
13. What can we infer from the text?
A. With more words we can speak English fluently
B. We have to read enough before speaking
C. Confidence comes from the right attitude.
D. Imagination is very important in speaking English.
14. What does it take to speak English like a native speaker?
A. Sharp observation B. Rich imagination
C. Translating ability D. Careful reading
15. What can be the best title of the text?
A. Making Your English Sound Natural B. Tips on Learning English Well
C. Challenging Difficulties in Learning English D. Be Attentive when Learning English

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述的是作者的母亲经常晚上给一些老年人打电话聊天,作者很不理解,但是30年后,作者真正的意识到了母亲这样做的价值和意义。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的““It doesn’t matter,” she said. “What’s important is that I listen.”(“没关系,”她说。“重要的是我倾听。”)”以及第三段中的“My mother grasped one of my hands and gave it a slight squeeze. “I’m the only person she talked to today.”(妈妈抓住我的一只手,轻轻捏了一下。“我是她今天唯一和她说话的人。”)”可知,老年人一天中只有作者的母亲给他打电话,由此可以推断,老年人很孤单,所以母亲作为一个倾听者给老年人打电话就是为了不让老人们减少一些他们的孤独。故选C项。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据空前的“She had friends and my two older sisters to call if she felt lonely.(如果她感到孤独,她有朋友和我的两个姐姐可以打电话。)”可知,作者觉得母亲要是觉得孤单可以找自己认识的人聊天,再根据“Some people didn’t even stop to catch breath(有些人甚至没有停下来喘口气)”可知,作者觉得母亲认识的人中有特别能说的,一打起电话就没完没了,由此可猜测,划线句子的意思是“他们在电话里会一直没完没了地说”。故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It took me more than thirty years to fully understand the meaning of that statement.(我花了三十多年的时间才完全理解这句话的含义。)”以及“I realize that my mother’s calls were life lines that ensured housebound seniors remained connected to the world. Without her, their world would have been empty.(我意识到我母亲的电话是确保居家老年人与世界保持联系的生命线。没有她,他们的世界将是空的。)”可知,作者终于在30年后明白了母亲这样做是让更多的老人与世界关联,不让老人觉得自己的世界太孤单,由此可推断出作者明白了母亲这样做的价值和意义。故选B项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据首段中的“In my childhood, my mother spent her evening hours doing something for someone else.(在我的童年时代,我的母亲在晚上为别人做一些事情。)”和“Therefore, I wasn’t surprised when one evening my mother announced she had undertaken a new project.(因此,有一天晚上,当我母亲宣布她承担了一个新项目时,我并不感到惊讶。)”以及最后一段中的“I realize that my mother’s calls were life lines that ensured housebound seniors remained connected to the world. Without her, their world would have been empty.(我意识到我母亲的电话是确保居家老年人与世界保持联系的生命线。没有她,他们的世界将是空的。)”并结合全文的内容可知,作者的母亲晚上给老年人打电话成了老年人与世界联系的生命线,让他们不会觉得太孤单,综上所述,本文的标题为“夜间通话,生命线通话”符合文章主题。故选D项。
C
Pigs may be more intelligent than people thought, as shown in a study where pigs used a joystick (操纵杆) and played a video game. Researchers used 2-year-old Panepinto micro pigs called Ebony and Ivory, as well as Hamlet and Omelet, 3-month-old Yorkshire pigs. Researchers first taught these pigs how to play with a joystick, teaching them the word, “joystick”. Next, on the words “watch the screen”, they learned how to watch targets (目标) on the screen. Of course, praise was given to the active pigs winning a game.
During the experiment, all pigs performed well. As they became more successful, the level of difficulty increased, just like in human video games! At first, the pigs had to hit a three-walled target which was then reduced to two walls and then one wall.
All pigs did well with the three-walled targets; however, the Panepinto pigs performed better on the more difficult levels. One disadvantage for the Yorkshire pigs was that they simply grew so large that they could no longer fit in their test. After a few months, Omelet and Hamlet were taken away from the experiment.
Dr. Candace Croney, a leading animal behavior scientist in Cambridge, said, “The findings of the study are important because what we do to pigs matters to them. It would be nice for people to realize how special pigs are, and how much more intelligent they may be than we recognized. The researchers said that the pigs’ actions were deliberate (故意的). This led them to believe that pigs were able to, successfully do new tasks.
“It may encourage other researchers to use touch screens and computer technology to study pigs intelligence in the future,” Croney said. The team hopes this type of research will make people pay more attention to this farm animal and show people how they can change the lives of animals.
8. What did the researchers do to the pigs at the beginning?
A. They studied their habits. B. They gave them enough food.
C. They trained them to play a game. D. They gave them special names.
9. What could we find about the pigs in the experiment?
A. They could keep focused for a long time.
B. They tried hard to win the games for praise.
C. They did all the tasks without any difficulty.
D. They got harder tasks as their performance improved.
10. What made Omelet and Hamlet unsuitable for the experiment later?
A. Their intelligence. B. Their body size.
C. Their power. D. Their weight.
11. What is Croney’s attitude towards the results of the study?
A. Positive. B. Doubtful.
C. Uncertain D. Surprised.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述猪经过人们的训练和与人互动后,可以用鼻子玩电动,能够听懂人的指令,从而说明猪有很强的学习潜力,此类的研究是一个巨大的突破,这可能会鼓励人们更加关注这种农场动物,并向人们展示他们如何改变动物的生活。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Researchers first taught these pigs how to play with a joystick, teaching them the word, “joystick”. Next, on the words ‘watch the screen’, they learned how to watch targets (目标) on the screen. Of course, praise was given to the active pigs winning a game.(研究人员首先教这些猪如何玩操纵杆,教它们“操纵杆”这个词。接下来,在‘观看屏幕’这个单词上,他们学会了如何观看屏幕上的目标。当然,在比赛中获胜的积极的猪会得到表扬。)”可知,他们一开始训练猪玩一个游戏。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“As they became more successful, the level of difficulty increased, just like in human video games! (随着他们越来越成功,难度水平也随之提高,就像人类电子游戏一样!)”可知,随着成绩的提高,他们得到了更艰巨的任务。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“One disadvantage for the Yorkshire pigs was that they simply grew so large that they could no longer fit in their test. After a few months, Omelet and Hamlet were taken away from the experiment. (约克郡猪的一个缺点是它们长得太大了,以至于无法再参加测试。几个月后,蛋卷和哈姆雷特被带离了实验。)”可知,Omelet和Hamlet的体型使得它们不适合后来的实验。故选B。
11题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Dr. Candace Croney, a leading animal behavior scientist in Cambridge, said, ‘The findings of the study are important because what we do to pigs matters to them. It would be nice for people to realize how special pigs are, and how much more intelligent they may be than we recognized. ’ (坎迪斯·克罗尼(Candace Croney)博士是剑桥大学著名的动物行为科学家,他说:“这项研究的发现很重要,因为我们对猪做的事情对它们很重要。如果人们能意识到猪有多特别,它们比我们想象的要聪明得多,那就太好了”)”可知,Croney对研究结果的态度是积极的。故选A。

Studying English for an hour once a week isn’t usually enough to make any real progress. The best way to quickly improve your English is to spend at least a few minutes practicing every day. Get yourself concentrated as much as possible every time you study, and challenge yourself to listen to , read ,and even say things in English that you think might be too difficult for you.
The right attitude can make the difference between failure and success. Stop thinking of yourself as someone who is learning English, and start thinking of yourself as someone who speaks English. It’s a small change, but it will make you feel more confident and help you to use the English you already know more effectively.
This also means you need to start thinking in English. If you want to say the word “apple” in English, for example, right now you probably think of the word in your native language first, and then try to think of the correct word in English. Instead, try imaging a picture of an apple, and then just think the English word “apple”. Real fluency happens when you stop mentally translating conversations.
When most students listen to a native English-speaker, they focus on understanding what all the words mean. This is definitely important, but there is a lot more you can learn from listening. Try listening not just to what the words mean, but to how the person says them. Notice which words the person links together in a sentence, or when they say “ya” instead of “you”. Try to remember these details the next time you speak and your English will begin to sound more natural.
12. What can we do if we want to make progress in English learning ?
A. We need to practice English every day.
B. We should study English for an hour once a week.
C. We must be concentrated as much as possible all the time.
D. We should challenge ourselves to speak at a higher level.
13. What can we infer from the text?
A. With more words we can speak English fluently
B. We have to read enough before speaking
C. Confidence comes from the right attitude.
D. Imagination is very important in speaking English.
14. What does it take to speak English like a native speaker?
A. Sharp observation B. Rich imagination
C. Translating ability D. Careful reading
15. What can be the best title of the text?
A. Making Your English Sound Natural B. Tips on Learning English Well
C. Challenging Difficulties in Learning English D. Be Attentive when Learning English
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些学好英语的建议,包括每天练习英语、树立正确的态度、开始用英语思考等。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The best way to quickly improve your English is to spend at least a few minutes practicing every day. .(快速提高英语的最好方法是每天至少花几分钟练习)”可知,如果我们想在英语学习中取得进步,我们需要每天练习英语。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The right attitude can make the difference between failure and success. Stop thinking of yourself as someone who is learning English, and start thinking of yourself as someone who speaks English. It’s a small change, but it will make you feel more confident and help you to use the English you already know more effectively.(正确的态度能决定成败。不要再把自己当成一个正在学习英语的人,开始把自己当成一个说英语的人吧。虽然变化不大,但它会让你更自信,并帮助你更有效地使用已经学到的英语)”可推知,自信来自正确的态度。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Try listening not just to what the words mean, but to how the person says them. Notice which words the person links together in a sentence, or when they say “ya” instead of “you”. Try to remember these details the next time you speak and your English will begin to sound more natural.( 试着不仅去听这些话的意思,还要去听他们是怎么说的。注意这个人在句子里把哪些词连在一起,或者他们说“ya”而不是“you”。下次你开口说话的时候,试着记住这些细节,你的英语就会听起来更自然)”可推知,想要把英语说得像母语一样流利需要敏锐的观察。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了一些学好英语的建议,包括每天练习英语、树立正确的态度、开始用英语思考等。因此,B选项“学好英语的建议”最符合文章标题。故选B。

【20题详解】
上文“Don’t compare yourself with others.(不要拿自己和别人比较)”及下文“Every day you should only try to make yourself better, instead of worrying about how the girl sitting in front of you gets nicer clothes or is getting better grades, etc.(每天你应该只专注于让自己变得更好,而不是担心前面坐着的女孩穿的衣服比你好或者成绩比你好等等)”说明不要拿自己和别人比较,空处承上启下,强调高中生活主要是与自己的竞争,并引出下文具体内容。C选项“高中只是和自己的竞争”总结这一观点并引出下文,符合语境。故选C。

【答案】Dear Terry,
How are you doing? Learning that you are about to pay a visit to a Chinese friend and confused about the Chinese customs, I am writing to put forward some advice.
Firstly, I would like to suggest that you arrive 5 to 10 minutes earlier, which is common in Chinese traditional culture. Secondly, if I were you, I would bring some appropriate gifts with me, such as souvenirs from my own country. Besides, table manners are also what you should pay attention to. For example, you are not supposed to stick your chopsticks into your food. Instead, laying them on your dish is a smart choice.
If you have any other problems, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua
