C. and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, because it was rush hour, 1,100 people went through the station, most of them on their way to work. Three minutes went by, and a middle-aged man noticed there was a musician playing. A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him. They stopped for a few seconds, and then hurried up to meet their schedule. The one who paid the most attention was a 3-year-old boy. His mother followed him along, hurriedly, but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally, the mother pushed hard, and the child continued to walk, turning his head all the time. This was repeated by several other children. All the parents, without exception, forced them to move on. In the 45 minutes the musician played, only 6 people stopped and stayed for a while. About 20 gave him money, but continued to walk at their normal pace. He collected $32 when he finished playing and silence took over, no one noticed it. No one applauded (鼓掌), nor was there any recognition. No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the most gifted musicians in the world. He had just played one of the most beautiful pieces ever written, on a violin worth 3.5 million dollars. Two days before his playing in the subway, Joshua Bell sold out at a theater in Boston where the seats averaged $100. This is a real story. Joshua Bell’s playing in the subway station was organized by the Washington Post as part of a social experiment.

C John Charlie Veron—widely known as the “Father of Coral Reef (珊瑚礁) ” — is a celebrated expert who has personally discovered nearly a quarter of the world’s coral species and has spent the past 45 years studying Australia’s Great Barrier Reef. But now the 73-year-old is raising the alarm about its future. The Great Barrier Reef, one of the natural wonders, is 2,300 kilometers long and is the only living organism that can be seen from space. It is considered a world treasure site due to its biodiversity (生物多样性) with 30 species of whales, dolphins and sharks. Within the reef itself, there are also a number of tiny organisms and fishes. However, its health is threatened. After the recent mass bleaching (白化) events, Veron dived in many areas of the Great Barrier Reef to see the damage by himself. “I was seeing and feeling it and it was absolutely shocking,” he says. Veron says the mass bleaching events in the past few years and the possibility of losing one of nature’s greatest treasures are a wake-up call for the world in the wider battle against climate change, which, together with the rising sea temperature, is considered the greatest threat to the reef. Fortunately, earlier this year, the Australian government announced nearly 400million dollars in new funding towards scientific projects designed to help the reef. There has been criticism in Australia about the slow process of the funding. “It won’t be wasted, though,” Veron says. “Scientists will be able to create a sort of seed bank to protect the species until the climate is good enough to rebuild the reef. What the scientists hope to do is help nature along a bit after the big carbon dioxide increase is over and it starts to come down.” 8 Why is the Great Barrier Reef considered a world treasure site? A. It is a natural wonder. B. It can be seen from space. C. It has a rich variety of species. D. It is 2,300 kilometers long. 9. Which does Veron think is one of the biggest threats to the reef? A. Human activities. B. Climate change. C. Bleaching events. D. Tiny organisms and fishes. 10. What’s Veron’s attitude to the future of the reef according to the last paragraph? A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Uncertain. D. Uncaring. 11. What does the text mainly tell us? A. The health of the reef in the world is worrying. B. Climate change is threatening biodiversity. C. The reasons for the reef bleaching are clear. D. The Great Barrier Reef is in danger of extinction. D Any foreigner who has tried to learn Chinese can tell how hard it is to master the tones required to speak and understand. And anyone who has tried to learn to play the violin or other instruments can report similar challenges. Now researchers have found that people with musical training have an easier time learning Chinese. Writing in the online edition of Nature Neuroscience, researchers from Northwestern University say that both skills draw on the same parts of the brain that help people discover changes in pitch(音高). One of the study's authors, Nina Kraus, said the findings suggested that studying music ''actually tunes our sensory system''. This means that schools that want children to do well in languages should hesitate before cutting music programs, Dr. Kraus said. She said music training might also help children with language problems. Mandarin(普通话)speakers have been shown to have a more complex encoding(编码) of pitch patterns in their brains than English speakers do. This is because in Mandarin and other Asian languages, pitch plays a central role. A single-syllable word can have several meanings depending on how it is intoned. For this study, the researchers looked at 20 non-Chinese speaking volunteers, half with no musical background and half who have studied an instrument for at least six years. As they were shown a movie, the volunteers also heard an audio tape of the Mandarin word ''mi'' in three of its meanings: squint, bewilder and rice. The researchers recorded activities in their brain stems to see how well they were processing the sounds. Those with a music background showed much more brain activities in response to the Chinese sounds. The lead author of the study, Patrick C. M. Wong, said it might work both ways. It appears that native speakers of tonal languages may do better at learning instruments. 12. When learning Chinese, a foreigner will find _____. A. it difficult to learn music at the same time B. it not difficult to learn music at the same time C. it hard to master the tones required to speak and understand D. it easy to use the brain to help him discover changes in pitch 13. Why does Chinese learning have something to do with music training? A. Because there is the same difficulty in learning Chinese and music. B. Because skills to learn the two make use of the same parts of the brain. C. Because music training might help people with language study. D. Because people who do well in Chinese study do well in music. 14. The underlined word ''intoned'' in the fourth paragraph can be replaced by the word ''_____''. A. created B. spelled C. seemed D. pronounced 15. What would be the best title of this passage? A Mandarin Speakers Are Smarter than English Speakers B. Skilled Ear for Music May Help Language Study C. Pitch Plays a Central Role in Chinese Learning D. Schools Need to Develop Music Programs 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。 The Comfort of Cooking Most people like eating delicious foods since they believe those foods can make them relax and help get rid of (摆脱) the tiredness of daily lives. ____16____ Cooking can provide you with many benefits.

Her school was putting on its annual play, and she had been offered a principal role. The school hall had been abuzz for weeks with rehearsals (彩排), prop preparations, and the students practicing their lines. Sarah had spent countless hours rehearsing, wanting to get every word and movement absolutely right. However, her expectation was a growing sadness. Sarah’s dad, Mr. Thompson, worked as an engineer in a big city, and his job often kept him away from home for a long time, which meant he frequently missed out on most of the special moments in Sarah’s life. This play seemed to be another addition to that growing list. He had a vital business meeting on the same day, and Sarah, although understanding, couldn’t help feeling disappointed. Her classmates talked excitedly about their families coming to watch, increasing her sense of loss. It was bright and sunny on the day of the play. The school’s hall was noisy with students. Students in costumes rushed about, teachers gave last-minute instructions, and the air was thick with anticipation. Sarah peeped (偷看) out from behind the curtains and saw the hall filling up with eager parents, siblings, and friends. Every seat was taken, except one — her dad’s. The play started on time with Sarah and her classmates’ performance being the first. The actors delivered their lines with passion and the audience responded with laughter and applause at all the right moments. Sarah played her part with a mix of excitement and longing, wishing her dad could see her shine. Halfway through, the host called for a surprise guest to enter. He described him as a ‌“mysterious stranger” whose brief appearance would provide a turning point in the plot. As the lights dimmed (暗淡) slightly and suspenseful music played, a tall figure stepped onto the stage. Sarah’s heart jumped faster. 注意：1. 正确使用七大基本简单句型回答问题； 2. 每个问题的答案词数不得低于10词。 47.

But now the 73-year-old is raising the alarm about its future. The Great Barrier Reef, one of the natural wonders, is 2,300 kilometers long and is the only living organism that can be seen from space. It is considered a world treasure site due to its biodiversity (生物多样性) with 30 species of whales, dolphins and sharks. Within the reef itself, there are also a number of tiny organisms and fishes. However, its health is threatened. After the recent mass bleaching (白化) events, Veron dived in many areas of the Great Barrier Reef to see the damage by himself. “I was seeing and feeling it and it was absolutely shocking,” he says. Veron says the mass bleaching events in the past few years and the possibility of losing one of nature’s greatest treasures are a wake-up call for the world in the wider battle against climate change, which, together with the rising sea temperature, is considered the greatest threat to the reef. Fortunately, earlier this year, the Australian government announced nearly 400million dollars in new funding towards scientific projects designed to help the reef. There has been criticism in Australia about the slow process of the funding. “It won’t be wasted, though,” Veron says. “Scientists will be able to create a sort of seed bank to protect the species until the climate is good enough to rebuild the reef. What the scientists hope to do is help nature along a bit after the big carbon dioxide increase is over and it starts to come down.” 8. Why is the Great Barrier Reef considered a world treasure site? A. It is a natural wonder. B. It can be seen from space. C. It has a rich variety of species. D. It is 2,300 kilometers long. 9. Which does Veron think is one of the biggest threats to the reef? A. Human activities. B. Climate change. C. Bleaching events. D. Tiny organisms and fishes. 10. What’s Veron’s attitude to the future of the reef according to the last paragraph? A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Uncertain. D. Uncaring. 11. What does the text mainly tell us? A. The health of the reef in the world is worrying. B. Climate change is threatening biodiversity. C. The reasons for the reef bleaching are clear. D. The Great Barrier Reef is in danger of extinction. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。“珊瑚礁之父”Veron警示，大堡礁因气候变化等受威胁，澳大利亚投巨资保护，他对其未来持积极态度。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It is considered a world treasure site due to its biodiversity (生物多样性) with 30 species of whales, dolphins and sharks. Within the reef itself, there are also a number of tiny organisms and fishes.(由于其生物多样性，它被视为世界瑰宝，有30种鲸鱼、海豚和鲨鱼。在珊瑚礁内部，还有许多微小的生物和鱼类。)”可知，大堡礁被视为世界瑰宝是因为其物种丰富多样。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Veron says the mass bleaching events in the past few years and the possibility of losing one of nature’s greatest treasures are a wake-up call for the world in the wider battle against climate change, which, together with the rising sea temperature, is considered the greatest threat to the reef.(Veron说，过去几年的大规模白化事件以及失去大自然最伟大宝藏之一的可能性，为世界在应对气候变化的更广泛斗争中敲响了警钟，气候变化与海水温度上升一起被认为是对珊瑚礁的最大威胁。)”可知，Veron认为气候变化是珊瑚礁最大的威胁之一。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘It won’t be wasted, though,’ Veron says. ‘Scientists will be able to create a sort of seed bank to protect the species until the climate is good enough to rebuild the reef. What the scientists hope to do is help nature along a bit after the big carbon dioxide increase is over and it starts to come down.’(‘不过，它不会被浪费，’Veron说。‘科学家们将能够创建一种种子库来保护该物种，直到气候足够好，可以重建珊瑚礁。科学家们希望在二氧化碳大幅增加结束并开始下降后，能帮助大自然继续前进。’)”可知，Veron对珊瑚礁的未来持积极态度。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第三段“Veron says the mass bleaching events in the past few years and the possibility of losing one of nature’s greatest treasures are a wake-up call for the world in the wider battle against climate change, which, together with the rising sea temperature, is considered the greatest threat to the reef.(Veron说，过去几年的大规模白化事件以及失去大自然最伟大宝藏之一的可能性，为世界在应对气候变化的更广泛斗争中敲响了警钟，气候变化与海水温度上升一起被认为是对珊瑚礁的最大威胁。)”可知，文章主要讲述了“珊瑚礁之父”John Charlie Veron警示大堡礁因气候变化等面临威胁，以及澳大利亚政府的相关应对措施，核心是讲述大堡礁正处于灭绝的危险中。故选D项。 D Any foreigner who has tried to learn Chinese can tell how hard it is to master the tones required to speak and understand. And anyone who has tried to learn to play the violin or other instruments can report similar challenges. Now researchers have found that people with musical training have an easier time learning Chinese. Writing in the online edition of Nature Neuroscience, researchers from Northwestern University say that both skills draw on the same parts of the brain that help people discover changes in pitch(音高). One of the study's authors, Nina Kraus, said the findings suggested that studying music ''actually tunes our sensory system''. This means that schools that want children to do well in languages should hesitate before cutting music programs, Dr. Kraus said. She said music training might also help children with language problems. Mandarin(普通话)speakers have been shown to have a more complex encoding(编码) of pitch patterns in their brains than English speakers do. This is because in Mandarin and other Asian languages, pitch plays a central role. A single-syllable word can have several meanings depending on how it is intoned. For this study, the researchers looked at 20 non-Chinese speaking volunteers, half with no musical background and half who have studied an instrument for at least six years. As they were shown a movie, the volunteers also heard an audio tape of the Mandarin word ''mi'' in three of its meanings: squint, bewilder and rice. The researchers recorded activities in their brain stems to see how well they were processing the sounds. Those with a music background showed much more brain activities in response to the Chinese sounds. The lead author of the study, Patrick C. M. Wong, said it might work both ways. It appears that native speakers of tonal languages may do better at learning instruments. 12. When learning Chinese, a foreigner will find _____. A. it difficult to learn music at the same time B. it not difficult to learn music at the same time C. it hard to master the tones required to speak and understand D. it easy to use the brain to help him discover changes in pitch 13. Why does Chinese learning have something to do with music training? A. Because there is the same difficulty in learning Chinese and music. B. Because skills to learn the two make use of the same parts of the brain. C. Because music training might help people with language study. D. Because people who do well in Chinese study do well in music. 14. The underlined word ''intoned'' in the fourth paragraph can be replaced by the word ''_____''. A. created B. spelled C seemed D. pronounced 15. What would be the best title of this passage? A. Mandarin Speakers Are Smarter than English Speakers B. Skilled Ear for Music May Help Language Study C. Pitch Plays a Central Role in Chinese Learning D. Schools Need to Develop Music Programs 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。任何一个学过汉语的外国人都知道掌握说话和理解所需要的声调有多难。目前有研究人员发现，受过音乐训练的人学习语言更容易。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。由第一段的Any foreigner who has tried to learn Chinese can tell how hard it is to master the tones required to speak and understand.可知，任何一个学过汉语的外国人都知道掌握说话和理解所需要的声调有多难。C. it hard to master the tones required to speak and understand(很难掌握说话和理解时所需要的声调)符合以上说法，故选C项。 13题详解】 细节理解题。由第二段的researchers from Northwestern University say that both skills draw on the same parts of the brain that help people discover changes in pitch(来自西北大学的研究人员说，学习汉语和音乐训练用到的是都是大脑相同的部位，这些部位有助于帮助人们发现音调中的变化。)可知，中文学习与音乐训练有关是因为学习两种技能需要用到大脑相同的部位。B. Because skills to learn the two make use of the same parts of the brain.(学习这两种节能都要用到大脑的相同部分)符合以上说法，故选B项。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。由第四段This is because in Mandarin and other Asian languages, pitch plays a central role. A single­syllable word can have several meanings depending on how it is intoned. 可知，在普通话和其他亚洲语言中，音调起着中心作用。一个单音节词，根据它如何toned，可以有几种意思。根据上下文语境，尤其是pitch可猜测划线部分的意思是“发音”。D. pronounced(发音)符合以上猜测，故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其是第二段的Now researchers have found that people with musical training have an easier time learning Chinese.(现在研究人员发现受过音乐训练的人在学习汉语方面会更加容易)和researchers from Northwestern University say that both skills draw on the same parts of the brain that help people discover changes in pitch(来自西北大学的研究人员说，学习汉语和音乐训练用到的是都是大脑相同的部位，这些部位有助于帮助人们发现音调中的变化。)可知，本文主要讲述研究表明，经过音乐训练的人，在学汉语方面会更加容易。音乐训练和汉语学习均用到了大脑相同的部位。该部位可以帮助人们更好地发现语调的变化，有助于人们学习语言。B. Skilled Ear for Music May Help Language Study(熟练的音乐听觉有助于语言学习)可以作为本文标题，故选B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。 The Comfort of Cooking Most people like eating delicious foods since they believe those foods can make them relax and help get rid of (摆脱) the tiredness of daily lives. ____16____ Cooking can provide you with many benefits.

Her school was putting on its annual play, and she had been offered a principal role. The school hall had been abuzz for weeks with rehearsals (彩排), prop preparations, and the students practicing their lines. Sarah had spent countless hours rehearsing, wanting to get every word and movement absolutely right. However, her expectation was a growing sadness. Sarah’s dad, Mr. Thompson, worked as an engineer in a big city, and his job often kept him away from home for a long time, which meant he frequently missed out on most of the special moments in Sarah’s life. This play seemed to be another addition to that growing list. He had a vital business meeting on the same day, and Sarah, although understanding, couldn’t help feeling disappointed. Her classmates talked excitedly about their families coming to watch, increasing her sense of loss. It was bright and sunny on the day of the play. The school’s hall was noisy with students. Students in costumes rushed about, teachers gave last-minute instructions, and the air was thick with anticipation. Sarah peeped (偷看) out from behind the curtains and saw the hall filling up with eager parents, siblings, and friends. Every seat was taken, except one — her dad’s. The play started on time with Sarah and her classmates’ performance being the first. The actors delivered their lines with passion and the audience responded with laughter and applause at all the right moments. Sarah played her part with a mix of excitement and longing, wishing her dad could see her shine. Halfway through, the host called for a surprise guest to enter. He described him as a ‌“mysterious stranger” whose brief appearance would provide a turning point in the plot. As the lights dimmed (暗淡) slightly and suspenseful music played, a tall figure stepped onto the stage. Sarah’s heart jumped faster. 注意：1. 正确使用七大基本简单句型回答问题； 2. 每个问题的答案词数不得低于10词。 47.

The story happened on the day of the school’s annual play in Sarah’s school. 48. The main characters in the story were Sarah, Sarah’s classmates, Sarah’s dad, the host of the play. 49. At first, she felt a growing sadness and then although understanding, she couldn’t help feeling disappointed. Finally, she still felt a sense of loss. 50. The ‌“mysterious stranger” on the stage was Sarah’s dad most possibly. He played his part/role perfectly in the play and gave his daughter a big surprise. 51. Sarah, with tears in her eyes, rushed to hug her dad, expressed her thanks and whispered that you made it. And then the dad replied he wouldn’t miss the play, his eyes shining with pride. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Sarah在学校年度戏剧中担任主角，但因父亲工作原因可能无法观看而感到失落，最终父亲惊喜现身舞台的故事。 【47题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段中“In the town of Willowbrook, young Sarah was in a state of great excitement. Her school was putting on its annual play, and she had been offered a principal role. (在Willowbrook镇，年轻的Sarah非常兴奋。她所在的学校正在上演年度戏剧，她得到了一个主角的角色。)”以及第三段中“It was bright and sunny on the day of the play. (演出那天阳光明媚。)”可知，故事发生在Willowbrook镇Sarah的学校，时间是学校年度戏剧上演的那天。故答案为：The story happened on the day of the school’s annual play in Sarah’s school. 【48题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章内容可知，故事围绕Sarah在学校年度戏剧中的经历展开，主要涉及Sarah、她的同学、她的父亲以及戏剧的主持人等角色。故答案为：The main characters in the story were Sarah, Sarah’s classmates, Sarah’s dad, the host of the play. 【49题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段中“However, her expectation was a growing sadness. (然而，她的期待却变成了越来越深的悲伤。)”以及“Sarah, although understanding, couldn’t help feeling disappointed. Her classmates talked excitedly about their families coming to watch, increasing her sense of loss. (Sarah虽然理解，但还是忍不住感到失望。她的同学们兴奋地谈论着他们的家人会来看演出，这增加了她的失落感。)”可知，当Sarah猜测父亲可能不会看演出时，她起初感到越来越悲伤，然后虽然理解但忍不住失望，最后感到一种失落感。故答案为：At first, she felt a growing sadness and then although understanding, she couldn’t help feeling disappointed. Finally, she still felt a sense of loss. 【50题详解】 考查推理判断。根据第二段中“He had a vital business meeting on the same day(他当天有一个重要的商务会议)”以及第五段中“Halfway through, the host called for a surprise guest to enter. He described him as a ‌“mysterious stranger” whose brief appearance would provide a turning point in the plot. (演到一半时，主持人邀请一位惊喜嘉宾上台。他将其描述为一个“神秘的陌生人”，他的短暂出现将为剧情提供一个转折点。)”可推测，舞台上的“神秘陌生人”很可能是Sarah的父亲，他在戏剧中扮演了一个角色，给了女儿一个大惊喜。故答案为：The ‌“mysterious stranger” on the stage was Sarah’s dad most possibly. He played his part/role perfectly in the play and gave his daughter a big surprise. 【51题详解】 考查推理判断。根据上题分析可知，父亲在戏剧中扮演了一个角色，给了女儿一个大惊喜，由此可推测，演出结束后，Sarah可能会眼含泪水，冲向父亲，表达感谢，并轻声说你来了。父亲则回答说他不会错过这场演出，眼中闪烁着自豪的光芒。故答案为：Sarah, with tears in her eyes, rushed to hug her dad, expressed her thanks and whispered that you made it. And then the dad replied he wouldn’t miss the play, his eyes shining with pride. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
