During this process, Bowwow is petting the dog,” Matwiyoff says. The girl got the idea after watching ABC’s Shark Tank. She spent four years creating a prototype (雏形) of Bowwow with the help of her mother. After that, she went to an Engineering and Computing Capstone Design program in Chico State. She was allowed to introduce her invention to a group of engineers and teachers in the hope of getting it produced. One of them disapproved of the idea. “My dog would rip (撕) this to pieces,” he said. This lit a fire within Matwiyoff, she spent the next four months doing research and testing Bowwow for dogs of different sizes and ages.

Children are known for wanting answers to many questions. Books and TV shows often depend on curiosity. People keep reading or watching because they want to find out what happens. But curiosity also provides many advantages. Learning is the easiest if you have a real desire (渴望) for knowledge. Curiosity can create that desire when you want an answer to the question. Many greatest discoveries of history were made by curious people. People wondered how things worked and how work could be done more effectively. Thanks to their curiosity, people now know far more about the world. Even if you don’t plan to be an inventor or researcher, curiosity can still help you in the classroom. If you develop the joy of learning, classes will become more fun. Though you’re no longer a student, curiosity will make you knowledgeable and thus a good worker. What do you do if you’re not already curious? Luckily, curiosity is a skill that can be improved. If you act like you’re curious, you’ll quickly start to actually feel curious. Often, as your knowledge of a topic grows, so does your interest in it. As you learn about a topic, find information from as many ways as possible. Read books, listen to lectures and ask questions. Don’t always get information in the same way. Instead, learn to receive the facts that different people know and ask a lot of questions. Remember, ________. Find out what that is, and ask about it. This lets you learn something and makes the other persons happy by sharing their knowledge. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 31. The children like to ask questions because ________. A. they are born with natural curiosity B. they don’t know about the human nature C. they are known for reading and watching D. they don’t want to find the answers by themselves 32.

A. read a lot of books B. listen to lectures C. get information in the same way D. ask different people questions 34. Which of the following can be put in “________” in Paragragh 3?

Have your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? ____36____ But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your friends or favorite stars.

This step will make things like apps and mobile dictionaries to help people learn dialects.” 【答案】56. danger 57. them 58. largest 59. mentions 60. clearly 61. remaining 62. spoken 63. disappear 64. who 65. second 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了中国政府保护方言的项目以及保护方言的重要性。 【56题详解】 句意：当很多中国人说普通话时，一些方言有消失的危险。根据“While many Chinese people speak Putonghua, some local dialects…of disappearing.”可知，普通话和方言是对立的关系，说普通话的人多了，说方言就少了，结合词组in danger of something表示“有……的风险”，此处需要填写danger“风险”。故填danger。 【57题详解】 句意：为了保护它们，中国政府在几年前开展了汉语资源保护项目。根据“the Chinese government started the Chinese Language Resources (资源) Protection Project a few years ago”可知，中国政府的行为是为了保护语言，横线处为指示代词，指代前句中提到的方言。“save”是动词，后面需要宾语，they的宾语为them“他们”。故填them。 【58题详解】 句意：它帮助中国建立了世界上最大的语言资源图书馆。根据后文中“These are achievements that no other country can match.”可知，这个“language resource library”是其他国家无法企及的，所以横线处需要填写形容词的最高级，large的最高级为largest“最大的”。故填largest。 【59题详解】 句意：世界语言教育家哈罗德·帕尔默提到，方言是储存当地文化的关键。根据“Harold Palmer, a world language educator…local cultures. ”可知，此处为间接引用专家的话，又因为主语是第三人称，动词需要用第三人称单数形式，mentions“提到”。故填mentions。 【60题详解】 句意：它们清晰地展示了某一区域的历史和信仰。根据“ They…show the history and beliefs of an area.”可知，需要用副词来修饰动词“show”，clear的副词形式为clearly“清晰地”。故填clearly。 【61题详解】 句意：他们值得保留。根据横线前的“worth”可知，此处需要填写其动词短语“worth doing something”，又因为前面提及要保护方言，所以需要用remain的动名词形式为remaining“保留”。故填remaining。 【62题详解】 句意：在过去的十年多里，吴语在像上海、苏州这样的地区被讲述。根据“the Wu dialect is…like Shanghai and Suzhou.”可知，需要填写动词的被动态，又因为语言是被讲述的，所以需要用speak的过去分词spoken“讲述”。故填spoken。 【63题详解】 句意：如果这样继续下去，方言会消失。根据“Kids aged 6 to 15 can understand and it but can’t speak it well. Teenagers over 15 might speak it a bit, but not very well. ”可知，这样再下去，方言会消失，根据横线前的的“could”可知后面应该填写动词原形，且带有含有消失含义的，需要填写appear的反义词disapper“消失”。故填disappear。 【64题详解】 句意：在350所学校、4500名专家和6000名讲不同方言的人的帮助下，这项工作花了五年时间。根据“6,000 people…dialects.”可知，横线处需要填写的是修饰“people”的定语从句的引导词who“谁”。故填who。 【65题详解】 句意：现在，这个项目正进展到它的第二个阶段。根据“The project first completed the building of the library”可知，第一阶段已经结束，目前开展的是第二阶段，需要填写two的序数词second“第二”。故填second。 第二节 阅读短文，根据语篇内容填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词。并将答案写在答题卡对应的位置上。 Do you know why willow branches (柳枝) are a symbol of saying goodbye?

A. parents B. doctors C. students D. teachers B Have you ever thought how lonely your pet dog will be when you leave home for school or work? Don’t worry! A teenager has created a helpful robot for you. Cassidy Matwiyoff, a student in San Diego, California, created Bowwow. It is a robot and it helps to pet (抚摸) dogs when their owners are not at home. “The robot starts to work by dropping the food. The dog walks over to eat the food. During this process, Bowwow is petting the dog,” Matwiyoff says. The girl got the idea after watching ABC’s Shark Tank. She spent four years creating a prototype (雏形) of Bowwow with the help of her mother. After that, she went to an Engineering and Computing Capstone Design program in Chico State. She was allowed to introduce her invention to a group of engineers and teachers in the hope of getting it produced. One of them disapproved of the idea. “My dog would rip (撕) this to pieces,” he said. This lit a fire within Matwiyoff, she spent the next four months doing research and testing Bowwow for dogs of different sizes and ages. Matwiyoff hopes to catch an investor’s (投资者的) eye soon and bring her invention to the market. “One day, investors will be interested in my product and want to invest in it.” she said. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 26.

What is the theme of the passage? A. Technology. B. Culture. C. Travel. D. Fairy. C Curiosity (好奇心) is part of human nature. Children are known for wanting answers to many questions. Books and TV shows often depend on curiosity. People keep reading or watching because they want to find out what happens. But curiosity also provides many advantages. Learning is the easiest if you have a real desire (渴望) for knowledge. Curiosity can create that desire when you want an answer to the question. Many greatest discoveries of history were made by curious people. People wondered how things worked and how work could be done more effectively. Thanks to their curiosity, people now know far more about the world. Even if you don’t plan to be an inventor or researcher, curiosity can still help you in the classroom. If you develop the joy of learning, classes will become more fun. Though you’re no longer a student, curiosity will make you knowledgeable and thus a good worker. What do you do if you’re not already curious? Luckily, curiosity is a skill that can be improved. If you act like you’re curious, you’ll quickly start to actually feel curious. Often, as your knowledge of a topic grows, so does your interest in it. As you learn about a topic, find information from as many ways as possible. Read books, listen to lectures and ask questions. Don’t always get information in the same way. Instead, learn to receive the facts that different people know and ask a lot of questions. Remember, ________. Find out what that is, and ask about it. This lets you learn something and makes the other persons happy by sharing their knowledge. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 31. The children like to ask questions because ________. A. they are born with natural curiosity B. they don’t know about the human nature C. they are known for reading and watching D. they don’t want to find the answers by themselves 32. Why can curiosity help you in the classroom? A. Because it can make you cleverer than before. B. Because it can help you feel relaxed in the classroom. C. Because it can help you enjoy the result of learning. D. Because it can make the classes more interesting and easier for you. 33. You are not supposed to ________ for more curiosity. A. read a lot of books B. listen to lectures C. get information in the same way D. ask different people questions 34. Which of the following can be put in “________” in Paragragh 3? A. no one has information that you don’t know B. everyone knows something that you don’t C. everyone has knowledge that you already know D there is nothing that everyone knows which you don’t know 35. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Curiosity is an easiest way to learn. B. Curiosity is a skill that can be improved. C. Curiosity can make the other person happy. D. Be curious and try to improve your curiosity. D If you are hungry, what do you do? Have your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? ____36____ But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your friends or favorite stars. So it silently serves your needs and never lets itself grow. When mind loses its freedom to grow, creativity gets a full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think, “What happens next?” “Why can’t I think?” ____37____ Why reading but not watching TV? Because reading is the most useful tool from the childhood We can ask for help from reading. There are a large number of books in this world. They will answer most of your “how to” questions. Once you read a book, your eyes travel over the lines and your mind tries to explain something to you. ____38____ Now this seed is used in your future to develop new ideas. If it is used many times, it can help you connect a lot of things together. The more books you read, the more widely your mind will open up. ____39____ So friends, do give food for your thoughts by reading, reading and more reading. ____40____ Go, find a book, and let me know! 根据材料内容选择最佳答案填入文中空缺处，使文章意思通顺、内容完整，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A.

The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed (种子). 三、完形填空（15小题，每小题1分，共15分） 先通读短文，掌握其大意，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个可以填入相应空白处的最佳答案，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 In our life, nobody wants to lose, but we must accept that losing is a part of life. ____41____, we can’t win all the time.
