A
If you’re traveling to South America in summer, you should have Patagonia (at the southern end of South America) high up on your list of things to do. With this list, I show you the best places to visit in Patagonia. The climate down there is pretty rough, especially in the very south - if you plan to do hiking or camping, the best time for a trip is between the end of November and the beginning of March.
1. Bariloche, Argentina
The fact that Bariloche is well connected (airport, direct bus to and from Buenos Aires) makes it the perfect starting point of a round trip through Patagonia. But more than that: the combination of mountains, lakes and green forests results in its beautiful scenery.
2. Futaleufú, Chile
Further down south and a bit harder to access is the small Chilean village Futaleufú which is located at the border to Argentina. The reason which makes it worth it: the Futaleufú River is often referred to as one of the best white water spots for rafting in the world. The landscape along the river is unique and, due to its location, still pretty much untouched.
3. Puerto Rio Tranquilo, Chile
If you want to get there quickly, you should travel through Argentina and cross over to Chile Chico as this place is also very remote. The reason to do so: the marble caves in the General Carrera lake.
4. Torres del Paine, Chile
Personally the national park Torres del Paine is my number 1 attraction in Patagonia - you should take some time and do a multi-day trek to experience as much of it as possible: glaciers, forests, impressive mountain ranges, lagoons and rivers.
1. What is the best time for hiking in Patagonia?
A. October 1—November 1 B. December 25—January 15
C. March 5—April 1 D. November 5—June 7
2. Which of the following about the Futaleufú River is true?
A. It lies in an easily accessible village. B. It is ignored due to rafting sports.
C. It is the best rafting river in the world. D. It still has untouched landscapes.
3. Which place attracts the author most in Patagonia?
A. Bariloche. B. Futaleufú.
C. Puerto Rio Tranquilo. D. Torres del Paine.
【答案】1. B 2. D 3. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。作者向读者介绍去巴塔哥尼亚( Patagonia)最值得一游的一些地方。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第一段“if you plan to do hiking or camping, the best time for a trip is between the end of November and the beginning of March.”(如果你打算徒步旅行或露营,旅行的最佳时间是在11月底到3月初之间。)以及选项可知,B项December 25—January 15(12月25日—1月15日)时间符合。故选B项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第三段“ the Futaleufú River is often referred to as one of the best white water spots for rafting in the world. The landscape along the river is unique and, due to its location, still pretty much untouched.”(Futaleufú河经常被称为世界上漂流的最佳白水景点之一。沿河风景独特,由于其地理位置,至今几乎未开发)可知,由于地理位置,现在Futaleufú还有很多未开发的地方。故选D项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。由文章最后一段“Personally the national park Torres del Paine is my number 1 attraction in Patagonia. ”(就我个人而言,Torres del Paine国家公园是我在Patagonia的第一大景点。)可知,Torres del Paine最吸引作者。故选D项。
B
Do you know the names of the people who live next door? Chances are you live next to someone, but do you actually know them? Sadly, the only time we do seem to hear about people’s neighbors is when things go wrong — hearing people say things like they have the bad neighbors! So, what does go wrong?
When talking about famous feuds (宿仇) with people who live close, you only need to think of the Montagues and Capulets in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. Thankfully, most real-life quarrels don’t go that far. These days, especially in cities, many people live in buildings. Our neighbors are all around us — so what problems can come from that?
The first obvious cause of argument is noise pollution. Loud noise through the walls construction (施工), or people arguing next door can disturb the silence of your living space. Asking someone directly to turn the music down can cause you to feel anxious. However, if you get someone like a building manager to speak to your neighbors, it can make things more awkward because you didn’t speak to your neighbors directly.
And then what about smells? If your neighbors like eating food with pungent (刺激的) smells, and the smells flow through your window, what can you do? There are some other common problems, such as water running through the wall, pets making noise, and Jittering from the window above you. These can bring anger over time.
It’s not easy living next door to someone, especially if they’re noisy. But having a clear and honest conversation might help. Also, try thinking what you are doing could make your neighbors angry. If it’s something that would make you feel bad, maybe think again.
4. Why does the author mention Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet in paragraph 2?
A. To present a fact. B. To provide an example.
C. To explain a topic. D. To make a comparison.
5. What are you advised to do if a neighbor makes too much noise?
A. Turn to the police. B. Talk to the neighbor directly.
C. Quarrel with the neighbor. D. Ask the building manager for help.
6. What can we infer about a neighbor’s pungent food smells?
A. They provide you pleasure. B. They open your imagination.
C. They’re your neighbor’s favorites. D. They make you uncomfortable.
7. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. How to make a neighbor happy. B. How to deal with a noisy neighbor.
C. How to communicate with a neighbor. D. How to get along well with a neighbor.
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要列举了一些邻里之间发生争吵的原因以及建议。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“When talking about famous feuds (宿仇) with people who live close, you only need to think of the Montagues and Capulets in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. Thankfully, most real-life quarrels don’t go that far. These days, especially in cities, many people live in buildings. Our neighbors are all around us — so what problems can come from that?(当谈到与住得很近的人的著名不和时,你只需要想想莎士比亚的《罗密欧与朱丽叶》中的蒙太古和凯普莱特。值得庆幸的是,大多数现实生活中的争吵都不会走到那一步。如今,尤其是在城市里,许多人住在大楼里。我们的邻居都在我们周围——那么这会产生什么问题呢?)”可推知,作者在第二段提到莎士比亚的《罗密欧与朱丽叶》是为了提供一个邻里之间相处不和睦的例子。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“However, if you get someone like a building manager to speak to your neighbors, It can make things more awkward because you didn’t speak to your neighbors directly.(然而,如果你让建筑管理员这样的人和你的邻居说话,这可能会让事情变得更尴尬,因为你没有直接和邻居说话)”可知,如果邻居太吵闹,你应该直接和邻居说。故选B。
6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“And then what about smells? If your neighbors like eating food with pungent (刺激的) smells, and the smells flow through your window, what can you do? There are some other common problems, such as water running through the wall, pets making noise, and Jittering from the window above you. These can bring anger over time.(那么气味呢?如果你的邻居喜欢吃有刺鼻气味的食物,而气味又从你的窗户飘进来,你该怎么办?还有其他一些常见的问题,比如水从墙上流进来,宠物发出噪音,从你上面的窗户发出抖动。随着时间的推移,这些会带来愤怒)”可推知,邻居刺鼻的食物气味让你不舒服。故选D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“It’s not easy living next door to someone, especially if they’re noisy. But having a clear and honest conversation might help. Also, try thinking what you are doing could make your neighbors angry. If it’s something that would make you feel bad, maybe think again.(住在别人隔壁并不容易,尤其是当他们很吵的时候。但进行一次清晰而诚实的对话可能会有所帮助。此外,试着想想你正在做的事情可能会让你的邻居生气。如果这是让你感觉不好的事情,也许再考虑一下)”可知,最后一段主要讲如何与邻居和睦相处。故选D。
C
If you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life, new research may come as a shock. According to a recent scientific study, people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all.
Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1,000 joggers (慢跑者) and non-joggers for 12 years. The death rates from the sample group indicate (表明) that people who jog at a proper pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die. The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5 miles per hour. The research suggests that people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7 mph die at the same rate as non-joggers. The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural (结构上的) changes to the heart and arteries (动脉). Over time, this can cause serious injuries.
Peter Schnohr, a researcher in Copenhagen, said, “If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy (寿命), jogging a few times a week at a proper pace is a good strategy. Anything more is not just unnecessary, and it may be harmful.”
The implications (暗示) of this are that moderate (适度的) forms of exercise such as tai chi, yoga and walking may be better for us than “iron man events, triathlons and long-distance running and cycling. According to Jacob Louis Marott, another researcher involved in the study, “You don’ t actually have to do that much to have a good impact (影响) on your health. And perhaps you shouldn’t actually do too much”.
8. The underlined word “strenuous” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “______”.
A. regular B. hard C. practical D. fluent
9. The author presents some figures in Paragraph 2 to ______.
A. suggest giving up jogging B. show risks of doing sports
C. provide supportive evidence D. introduce the research process
10. According to the scientists, why is too much exercise harmful?
A. It may injure the heart and arteries. B. It can make the body tired out.
C. It will bring much pressure. D. It consumes too much energy.
11. What can be inferred (推断) from the text?
A. No exercise at all is the best choice. B. More exercise means a healthier life.
C. Marathons runners are least likely to die. D. Proper exercise contributes to good health.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,通过丹麦科学家的研究表明,过度剧烈运动与不运动的死亡风险相当,适度且有节奏的运动才更有利于健康。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段中的“If you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life, new research may come as a shock (如果你认为跑马拉松会帮助你过上长寿健康的生活,一项新的研究可能会让你大吃一惊)”可知,人们一般认为马拉松会帮助我们过上健康长寿的生活,但新的研究结果不是这样。那些从事strenuous workout的人和根本不做运动的人死亡可能性一样。由此猜测“strenuous workout”指像跑马拉松一样强度大的运动,因此strenuous意为“剧烈的、高强度的”,与hard(费力的、剧烈的)。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The death rates from the sample group indicate that people who jog at a proper pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die (样本组的死亡率表明,每周以适当速度慢跑两到三次、总时长少于两个半小时的人死亡风险最低)”可知,作者列出“每周两到三次”“少于两个半小时”“每小时5英里”等数据,是为了给研究结论提供有力证据。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural (结构上的) changes to the heart and arteries (动脉). (科学家们认为,这是因为剧烈运动导致心脏和动脉发生结构变化)”可知,过度运动有害是因为它可能损伤心脏和动脉。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy, jogging a few times a week at a proper pace is a good strategy (如果你的目标是降低死亡风险并提高预期寿命,每周以适当速度慢跑几次是个不错的策略)”可知,适度的运动有助于身体健康。故选D项。
D
Nowadays, children spend less time in the fresh air. Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV— they seem to be living in a virtual world. They have lost touch with nature.
But now 400 organizations in the UK, from playgroups to the National Health Service, are encouraging children to have some “wild time”. They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside. Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kid can do. Even if they live in a city, they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.
Children often need a helping hand from mum and dad. They need to be shown what to do and where to go. Andy Simpson from National Health Service says, “We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development, independence and creativity, by giving wild time a go.”
So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now, it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground” is what modern children need. David Bond from Project Wild Thing says, “We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine, freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted.”
This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe, like me, it’s made you think about sticking on your boots, getting outdoors and reliving your childhood. There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!
12. Children are encouraged to do the following activities except________.
A. building dens B. climbing trees
C. playing hide and seek D. watching TV
13. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. Adults value outdoor activities. B. Modern children need wild time.
C. The present world is complicated. D. This generation of kids has no freedom.
14. The last paragraph suggests that________.
A. People at any age can enjoy wild time
B. It is out of date to go outdoors
C. It is too late for adults to enjoy nature
D. People like recalling the past
15. What is the best title of the text?
A. More space for children B. Benefits of wild time
C. Wild time for children D. Adventures of children
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。如今的孩子们大都迷恋于电视或者电脑而在户外的时间越来越少,他们失去了与大自然亲密接触的机会。在本文中作者提出鼓励孩子有“wild time”,去进行一些户外活动,比如捉迷藏、爬树等等。而且提出这些改变都需要父母的帮助。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside. Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kid can do.(他们希望孩子们用至少30分钟看电视或玩电脑游戏的时间来换取在户外玩耍的时间。搭建洞穴、爬树、翻找松果和捉迷藏等活动只是孩子们可以做的一些事情)”可知,作者不鼓励孩子们看电视。故选D项。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段主要内容“So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now, it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground” is what modern children need. David Bond from Project Wild Thing says, ‘We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine, freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted.’(因此,尽管现在的年轻人成长在一个复杂的世界中,但似乎回归基本,体验“大自然的游乐场”是现代孩子所需要的。 来自“野性计划”的大卫·邦德说:‘我们需要在孩子们的日常生活中为户外时间留出更多的空间,让这一代孩子有机会体验我们许多人认为理所当然的事情。’)”可知,该部分主要是说现在的孩子需要户外活动的时间。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的句子“This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe, like me, it’s made you think about sticking on your boots, getting outdoors and reliving your childhood. There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!(这对你,或者我来说可能听起来有点过时,这让你想到穿上靴子,到户外去,重温童年。享受生活没有年龄限制!)”可知,任何年龄的人都可以享受户外时光。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。本文主要是说如今的孩子们大都迷恋于电视或者电脑而在户外的时间越来越少,他们失去了与大自然亲密接触的机会。在本文中作者提出鼓励孩子有“wild time”,去进行一些户外活动,比如捉迷藏、爬树等等。所以,用C项“Wild time for children”作为本文的题目与文章主题相符合。故选C项。

【20题详解】
根据上文“We tend to forget to eat when we’re too anxious, but eating is necessary. Your brain needs sugar to work properly.

考查副词词义辨析。句意:布兰森显然是个英雄,他把恐惧和焦虑抛在一边去拯救生命。A. obviously显然;B. luckily幸运地;C. legally合法地;D. traditionally传统上。根据下文“putting aside his fears and anxiety to save lives”可知,此处指布兰森显然是个英雄。故选A。
【35题详解】

【解析】
【59题详解】
考查固定短语和时态。句意:这位年轻的科学家去年致力于改进这项技术。“apply oneself to”是固定短语,意为“致力于;集中精力于”,其中oneself要根据主语进行变化,本句主语是“The young scientist”,所以用himself。由时间状语“last year”可知,动作发生在过去,应用一般过去时,apply的过去式为applied,故填applied himself to。
【60题详解】
考查固定短语和主谓一致。句意:并非所有学生都适合那种工作。“be suitable for”为固定短语,意思是“适合……”。句子描述的是一般情况,用一般现在时,主语“Not all students”表示复数概念,所以be动词用are,故填are suitable for。

【63题详解】
考查固定短语和非谓语动词。句意:你喜欢电脑游戏并不稀奇。“be attracted to”表示“被……吸引;喜爱”。“It is +形容词+ for sb. to do sth.”是常见的固定句型,其中it作形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式短语,故填to be attracted to。
【64题详解】
考查固定短语和非谓语动词。句意:我知道我得习惯承担更多责任。“be responsible for”为固定短语,意为“对……负责”。“get used to”中to为介词,后接动词时要用动名词形式,故填being responsible for。

英语
说明:1、本卷总分130分,考试时长120 分钟。
2、考生必须用黑色钢笔或签字笔在答题卷指定范围内作答,在本试卷内作答无效。
第一部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分60分)
第一节 (共15小题;每小题3分,满分45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
If you’re traveling to South America in summer, you should have Patagonia (at the southern end of South America) high up on your list of things to do. With this list, I show you the best places to visit in Patagonia. The climate down there is pretty rough, especially in the very south - if you plan to do hiking or camping, the best time for a trip is between the end of November and the beginning of March.
1. Bariloche, Argentina
The fact that Bariloche is well connected (airport, direct bus to and from Buenos Aires) makes it the perfect starting point of a round trip through Patagonia. But more than that: the combination of mountains, lakes and green forests results in its beautiful scenery.
2. Futaleufú, Chile
Further down south and a bit harder to access is the small Chilean village Futaleufú which is located at the border to Argentina. The reason which makes it worth it: the Futaleufú River is often referred to as one of the best white water spots for rafting in the world. The landscape along the river is unique and, due to its location, still pretty much untouched.
3. Puerto Rio Tranquilo, Chile
If you want to get there quickly, you should travel through Argentina and cross over to Chile Chico as this place is also very remote. The reason to do so: the marble caves in the General Carrera lake.
4. Torres del Paine, Chile
Personally the national park Torres del Paine is my number 1 attraction in Patagonia - you should take some time and do a multi-day trek to experience as much of it as possible: glaciers, forests, impressive mountain ranges, lagoons and rivers.
1. What is the best time for hiking in Patagonia?
A. October 1—November 1 B. December 25—January 15
C. March 5—April 1 D. November 5—June 7
2. Which of the following about the Futaleufú River is true?
A. It lies in an easily accessible village. B. It is ignored due to rafting sports.
C. It is the best rafting river in the world. D. It still has untouched landscapes.
3. Which place attracts the author most in Patagonia?
A. Bariloche. B. Futaleufú.
C. Puerto Rio Tranquilo. D. Torres del Paine.
B
Do you know the names of the people who live next door? Chances are you live next to someone, but do you actually know them? Sadly, the only time we do seem to hear about people’s neighbors is when things go wrong — hearing people say things like they have the bad neighbors! So, what does go wrong?
When talking about famous feuds (宿仇) with people who live close, you only need to think of the Montagues and Capulets in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. Thankfully, most real-life quarrels don’t go that far. These days, especially in cities, many people live in buildings. Our neighbors are all around us — so what problems can come from that?
The first obvious cause of argument is noise pollution. Loud noise through the walls construction (施工), or people arguing next door can disturb the silence of your living space. Asking someone directly to turn the music down can cause you to feel anxious. However, if you get someone like a building manager to speak to your neighbors, it can make things more awkward because you didn’t speak to your neighbors directly.
And then what about smells? If your neighbors like eating food with pungent (刺激的) smells, and the smells flow through your window, what can you do? There are some other common problems, such as water running through the wall, pets making noise, and Jittering from the window above you. These can bring anger over time.
It’s not easy living next door to someone, especially if they’re noisy. But having a clear and honest conversation might help. Also, try thinking what you are doing could make your neighbors angry. If it’s something that would make you feel bad, maybe think again.
4. Why does the author mention Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet in paragraph 2?
A. To present a fact. B. To provide an example.
C. To explain a topic. D. To make a comparison.
5. What are you advised to do if a neighbor makes too much noise?
A. Turn to the police. B. Talk to the neighbor directly.
C Quarrel with the neighbor. D. Ask the building manager for help.
6 What can we infer about a neighbor’s pungent food smells?
A. They provide you pleasure. B. They open your imagination.
C. They’re your neighbor’s favorites. D. They make you uncomfortable.
7. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. How to make a neighbor happy. B. How to deal with a noisy neighbor.
C. How to communicate with a neighbor. D. How to get along well with a neighbor.
C
If you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life, new research may come as a shock. According to a recent scientific study, people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all.
Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1,000 joggers (慢跑者) and non-joggers for 12 years. The death rates from the sample group indicate (表明) that people who jog at a proper pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die. The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5 miles per hour. The research suggests that people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7 mph die at the same rate as non-joggers. The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural (结构上的) changes to the heart and arteries (动脉). Over time, this can cause serious injuries.
Peter Schnohr, a researcher in Copenhagen, said, “If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy (寿命), jogging a few times a week at a proper pace is a good strategy. Anything more is not just unnecessary, and it may be harmful.”
The implications (暗示) of this are that moderate (适度的) forms of exercise such as tai chi, yoga and walking may be better for us than “iron man events, triathlons and long-distance running and cycling. According to Jacob Louis Marott, another researcher involved in the study, “You don’ t actually have to do that much to have a good impact (影响) on your health. And perhaps you shouldn’t actually do too much”.
8. The underlined word “strenuous” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “______”.
A. regular B. hard C. practical D. fluent
9. The author presents some figures in Paragraph 2 to ______.
A. suggest giving up jogging B. show risks of doing sports
C. provide supportive evidence D. introduce the research process
10. According to the scientists, why is too much exercise harmful?
A. It may injure the heart and arteries. B. It can make the body tired out.
C. It will bring much pressure. D. It consumes too much energy.
11. What can be inferred (推断) from the text?
A. No exercise at all is the best choice. B. More exercise means a healthier life.
C. Marathons runners are least likely to die. D. Proper exercise contributes to good health.
D
Nowadays, children spend less time in the fresh air. Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV— they seem to be living in a virtual world. They have lost touch with nature.
But now 400 organizations in the UK, from playgroups to the National Health Service, are encouraging children to have some “wild time”. They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside. Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kid can do. Even if they live in a city, they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.
Children often need a helping hand from mum and dad. They need to be shown what to do and where to go. Andy Simpson from National Health Service says, “We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development, independence and creativity, by giving wild time a go.”
So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now, it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground” is what modern children need. David Bond from Project Wild Thing says, “We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine, freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted.”
This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe, like me, it’s made you think about sticking on your boots, getting outdoors and reliving your childhood. There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!
12. Children are encouraged to do the following activities except________.
A. building dens B. climbing trees
C. playing hide and seek D. watching TV
13. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. Adults value outdoor activities. B. Modern children need wild time.
C. The present world is complicated. D. This generation of kids has no freedom.
14. The last paragraph suggests that________.
A. People at any age can enjoy wild time
B. It is out of date to go outdoors
C. It is too late for adults to enjoy nature
D. People like recalling the past
15. What is the best title of the text?
A. More space for children B. Benefits of wild time
C. Wild time for children D. Adventures of children
