Long, long afterwards, in an oak, I found the arrow, still unbroke; And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend. Poem B: I love three things in this world, The sun, the moon and you. The sun for the day, the moon for the night, and you forever. For the world you are somebody, But for somebody you are the world. I dropped a tear in the ocean And the day you find it is the day I will stop loving you! People laugh and people cry, Some say hi while some bye, Some give up and some always try, Others may forget you but never will I. Poem C (excerpt): Two roads diverged (岔开) in a yellow wood And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should even come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence; Two roads diverged in a wood, and I — I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. Poem D: I don’t know what your dream is I don’t care how disappointing it might have been, As you’ve been working toward that dream. Some of you already know that is hard. It’s not easy. In the process of working on your dreams, You’re going to face a lot of disappointment, a lot of failure, a lot of pain. For those of you who have never experienced hardships, Don’t give up on your dream. There are right times on the way to have come. But they have not come to be seen, they have come to be past. 21. What does “a tear in the ocean” in Poem B imply? A. I feel sad for your love. B. You mean everything to me. C. I won’t stop loving you all my life. D. My love for you is as wide as the ocean. 22. Which poem is a suitable choice to encourage a frustrated friend? A. Poem A. B. Poem B. C. Poem C. D. Poem D. 23. Which of the following themes is absent from the four poems? A. Friendship. B. Freedom. C. Choices. D. Perseverance. B By my mid-20s, I’d finished my master in psychology, and I was working in Dublin as a health researcher. It was mostly data and statistics work staring at a screen. I was earning more than most of my friends, living the city life, going out at weekends. I had a good pension (养老金) and annual leave but it caused a lot of anxiety and worry.I was really unhappy. I wanted to get back to feeling passionate about something so I started thinking about the things I used to love. As a child, I’d always been involved in the outdoors, and I used to love hiking but all that had stopped after secondary school. I decided to volunteer with a local youth group and within a month, I’d gone camping with them. I absolutely loved it. It was like switching on a lightbulb. This was what I’d been missing. I started taking courses in mountain skills and wilderness first aid, and by August I was working my usual job in the week, and I was a climbing club leader at weekends. I loved connecting with nature, connecting with other people. Through all this, I learnt about the whole field of nature-based therapies (疗法). It was the perfect fit to combine my psychology background with my passion for the outdoors. I began taking courses in wild therapy, forest bathing and ecopsychology. I left my government job and in July 2020 I launched my business Nature Therapy Ireland, which is booming now. I’d thought I’d always live in a city but last year, I moved to Tipperary to live at the foot of a mountain, surrounded by nature. If I’m feeling stressed, I can step outside in my bare feet and stand on the grass to ground myself. In Dublin, the front door felt like a barrier—I had to have my keys, my phone, my jacket before I could even go out and find a green space. My life now is leading nature connection hikes and forest bathing walks. My salary has halved for the moment but I’ve adjusted. I’ve never looked back. 24. What did the writer think of her job in Dublin? A. Stressful. B. Valueless. C. Insecure. D. Demanding. 25. What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 2? A. She enjoyed her voluntary work. B. She realized what she really loved. C. Recalling the past made her happy. D. A bright future was in store for her. 26. What drove the writer to launch her business Nature Therapy Ireland? A. Her adventurous experience. B. Her leadership and background. C. Her connection with other people. D. Her major and passion for nature. 27. Why did the writer compare her life in Dublin with that in Tipperary? A. To highlight how boring city life was. B. To call on people to get back to nature. C. To show her satisfaction with her change. D. To indicate how successful her business was. C Chinese society, basically agricultural, has always laid great stress on understanding the pattern of nature and living in harmony with it. The world of nature was seen as the visible expression of the workings of a higher power through the interaction of the Chinese philosophy of yin and yang. As Chinese art developed, its purpose turned to the expression of human understanding of these forces, in the form of painting of landscapes, bamboo, birds, and flowers. Particularly in early times, art also had social and moral functions. The earliest wall paintings referred to in ancient texts often described merciful emperors, officials, and their evil opposites as examples and warnings to the living. Human relationships have always been of great importance in China, and a common theme of figure painting is that of gentlemen enjoying staying together or of the depressing partings and infrequent reunions. Among the typical themes of traditional Chinese art, there is no place for war, violence or death. No theme would be accepted in traditional Chinese art that was not inspiring, noble, or refreshing to the spirit. In the broadest sense, therefore, all traditional Chinese art is symbolic, for everything that is painted reflects some aspect of what the painter is aware of. Bamboo suggests the spirit of the person, which can be bent by circumstance but never broken. The dragon is the wholly kind-hearted symbol of the emperor; the crane (鹤) symbolizes long life; and paired mandarin ducks symbolize wedded loyalty. Popular among the many symbols drawn from the plant world are the orchid (兰花), a symbol of purity; the plum blossom (梅花), which comes out even in the snow and stands for uncontrollable purity, in either a revolutionary political or a spiritual sense; and the pine tree, which may represent either survival in a fierce political environment or the unconquerable spirit of old age. 28. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. The art. B. The painting. C. The theme. D. The relationship. 29. Which of the following best describes the typical themes of traditional Chinese art? A. Violent and alarming. B. Material and instructive. C. True-to-life and educative. D. Positive and inspiring. 30. How does the author introduce traditional Chinese art in the last paragraph? A. By giving examples. B. By making comparisons. C. By analyzing causes. D. By following time order. 31. Which is the best title for the passage? A. The Role of Traditional Chinese Art B. Agriculture and Traditional Chinese Art C. Significance and Value of Traditional Chinese Art D Characteristic Themes and Symbols of Traditional Chinese Art D Nothing is more American than blue jeans. The blue denim pants(牛仔裤) were invented in 1871 and were initially made for miners and cowboys but became a popular fashion among youth in the 1950s and 1960s. Denim soon became accepted by most people, making jean pants, jackets, skirts, and more a big part of western culture. Now, Wrangler which has been making jeans since 1947, is greening the industry by dyeing denim with indigo—the deep blue color used for jeans-foam(泡沫), instead of the traditional way of using vats of Indigo liquid dye. While indigo is a natural compound and has been used to dye cloth for centuries, most of the indigo dyes used today are manmade, and dyeing thread for the production of blue jeans is very wasteful. The thread has to be pulled through multiple dye boxes filled with around 2,000 liters of liquid dye and water, and the process has to be repeated several times for the dye to hold according to Fast Company. The new eco-friendly foam dyeing method was developed at Texas Tech and uses over 99 percent less water than the traditional method. In 2017, Wrangler, the Walmart Foundation, and Lee, another blue jeans brand• invested in new technology to make the industry more sustainable. In the new “Indigo good” methods the process saves more than just water; it is expected to use 60 percent less energy and produces 60 percent less waste. “While we have been able to reduce 3 billion liters of water in product finishing during the past 10 years, we know that more needs to be done across the entire supply chain.” Wrangler president Tom Waldron told Fashion Network. “Foam technology reduces water consumption and pollution further upstream.” 32. Whom were blue jeans first aimed at? A. Miners. B. Youth. C. The old. D. The majority. 33. What may be the difference between indigo used now and centuries ago? A. Source of raw materials. B. Amount of usages. C. Pollution levels. D. Process of dyeing. 34. What's the advantage of the new foam dyeing method? A. Saving time. B. Reducing water's waste. C. Attracting employees. D. Causing no pollution. 35 What can we know according to Tom Waldron? A. He requires cooperation with suppliers. B. He is satisfied with the entire supply chain. C. He appeals to further reducing pollution. D. His company is bringing in more profits. 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。 It is natural for us to start drawing a conclusion in most situations before we fully understand what is going on.

The car had come to an unexpected stop, and like a teenager she did the only thing she could think of-get out and walk. It was cold and late, and home was far away. This could be a long night. If only someone would stop and offer her a ride. She prayed for help and dragged herself forward. The lights of a truck shone from behind as it approached. “Maybe he will stop,” she hoped. The brake lights flashed on as it stopped. Next instant, the cab door opened. A wordless invitation was extended and she understood. Without hesitation the girl climbed up into the cab and closed the door. Slowly the truck pulled back onto the road and disappeared into the night, never to be seen again. I woke up in a cold sweat, alarmed. Was that a dream or was it a vision? It was unbelievably real, and the girl was my daughter! I jumped from my bed and ran to her room. Her bed was empty. I stood in horror trying to think why she had not come home. As the mental fog began to lift, I remembered she was visiting her friend that evening. Perhaps she stayed there for the night. It was 1:30 a.m., but I raced to the phone and dialed a number. “Hello?” The voice was heavy with sleep. “Hey. Sorry to wake you. Becki didn’t come home tonight and I was wondering if she stayed at your place.” “No, she left here a few hours ago. She should have been home at least by midnight!” The voice on the other end began to reflect my own panic. Over the next forty-five minutes I alternated between lying in pray and pacing the floor in anxiety. At 2:15 a.m. lights appeared as a car turned up on our long driveway. I could tell immediately that it was not my daughter’s car. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 My face pressed against the window and.

I have been trying to speak to the hotel owner for a couple of days now with no success. I have to say this is truly disappointing for a five star hotel, especially with the amount of money we spent during our stay with you. My family and I stayed at the hotel sand delier from may twenty fifth to twenty seventh, and the whole experience was just absolutely awful. None of your weighers could speak russian, even though I have an email from you assuring us that there would be a minimum of two russian speaking staff on every shift. You had noisy kids, activities and competitions by the pool. Non storm. He made IT really difficult to relax when expressing our concerns to the manager, mister Lewis. That only was he unable to provide us with the space where we could relax and read our books. But he also told us that smoking was not allowed in the hotel, although again, we checked this before our stay and you told us that smoking outdoors was permitted. Please get back to me as soon as possible, or I will take these matters to my legal team. Hello, my name is soka love.

I breathed a song into the air, It fell to earth I knew not where; For who has the sight so keen and strong, That can follow the flight of a song? Long, long afterwards, in an oak, I found the arrow, still unbroke; And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend. Poem B: I love three things in this world, The sun, the moon and you. The sun for the day, the moon for the night, and you forever. For the world you are somebody, But for somebody you are the world. I dropped a tear in the ocean And the day you find it is the day I will stop loving you! People laugh and people cry, Some say hi while some bye, Some give up and some always try, Others may forget you but never will I. Poem C (excerpt): Two roads diverged (岔开) in a yellow wood And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should even come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence; Two roads diverged in a wood, and I — I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. Poem D: I don’t know what your dream is. I don’t care how disappointing it might have been, As you’ve been working toward that dream. Some of you already know that is hard. It’s not easy. In the process of working on your dreams, You’re going to face a lot of disappointment, a lot of failure, a lot of pain. For those of you who have never experienced hardships, Don’t give up on your dream. There are right times on the way to have come. But they have not come to be seen, they have come to be past. 21. What does “a tear in the ocean” in Poem B imply? A. I feel sad for your love. B. You mean everything to me. C. I won’t stop loving you all my life. D. My love for you is as wide as the ocean. 22. Which poem is a suitable choice to encourage a frustrated friend? A. Poem A. B. Poem B. C. Poem C. D. Poem D. 23. Which of the following themes is absent from the four poems? A. Friendship. B. Freedom. C. Choices. D. Perseverance. 【答案】21. C 22. D 23. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是四首诗歌。四首诗分别涉及友谊、爱情、选择及鼓励坚持梦想等不同主题的情感与感悟。 【21题详解】 推理判断题。根据Poem B部分中“And the day you find it is the day I will stop loving you!(当你找到那滴眼泪的那一天就是我不再爱你的那一天！)”以及“Others may forget you but never will I. (别人可能会忘记你，但我永远不会。)”可知，Poem B中的“大海中的一滴泪”意思是我会爱你一辈子。故选C。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据Poem D部分中“Don’t give up on your dream. There are right times on the way to have come. (不要放弃你的梦想。在到来的路上总会有合适的时机。)”可知，这首诗适合用来鼓励失意的朋友。故选D。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Poem A部分中“And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend. (这首歌，从头到尾，我再次在朋友的心中找到。)”；Poem B部分中“And the day you find it is the day I will stop loving you! (当你找到那滴眼泪的那一天就是我不再爱你的那一天！)”；Poem C (excerpt)部分中“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I — I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. (树林里分出两条路，而我——我选择了人迹罕至的那条，这让一切都不同了。)”以及Poem D部分中“Don’t give up on your dream. (不要放弃你的梦想。)”可知，诗歌A的主题是友谊，诗歌B的主题是深沉且永恒的爱意，诗歌C的主题是选择，诗歌D的主题是坚持，四首诗均未涉及“自由”这一主题。故选B。 B By my mid-20s, I’d finished my master in psychology, and I was working in Dublin as a health researcher. It was mostly data and statistics work staring at a screen. I was earning more than most of my friends, living the city life, going out at weekends. I had a good pension (养老金) and annual leave but it caused a lot of anxiety and worry.I was really unhappy. I wanted to get back to feeling passionate about something so I started thinking about the things I used to love. As a child, I’d always been involved in the outdoors, and I used to love hiking but all that had stopped after secondary school. I decided to volunteer with a local youth group and within a month, I’d gone camping with them. I absolutely loved it. It was like switching on a lightbulb. This was what I’d been missing. I started taking courses in mountain skills and wilderness first aid, and by August I was working my usual job in the week, and I was a climbing club leader at weekends. I loved connecting with nature, connecting with other people. Through all this, I learnt about the whole field of nature-based therapies (疗法). It was the perfect fit to combine my psychology background with my passion for the outdoors. I began taking courses in wild therapy, forest bathing and ecopsychology. I left my government job and in July 2020 I launched my business Nature Therapy Ireland, which is booming now. I’d thought I’d always live in a city but last year, I moved to Tipperary to live at the foot of a mountain, surrounded by nature. If I’m feeling stressed, I can step outside in my bare feet and stand on the grass to ground myself. In Dublin, the front door felt like a barrier—I had to have my keys, my phone, my jacket before I could even go out and find a green space. My life now is leading nature connection hikes and forest bathing walks. My salary has halved for the moment but I’ve adjusted. I’ve never looked back. 24. What did the writer think of her job in Dublin? A. Stressful. B. Valueless. C. Insecure. D. Demanding. 25. What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 2? A. She enjoyed her voluntary work. B. She realized what she really loved. C. Recalling the past made her happy. D. A bright future was in store for her. 26. What drove the writer to launch her business Nature Therapy Ireland? A. Her adventurous experience. B. Her leadership and background. C. Her connection with other people. D. Her major and passion for nature. 27. Why did the writer compare her life in Dublin with that in Tipperary? A. To highlight how boring city life was. B. To call on people to get back to nature. C. To show her satisfaction with her change. D. To indicate how successful her business was. 【答案】24. A 25. B 26. D 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者介绍了辞去政府工作，选择做自己喜欢做的事情，并且作者将自己的心理学专业与对户外的热情创办了Nature Therapy Ireland，虽然薪水减半，但是感觉很放松。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I had a good pension (养老金) and annual leave but it caused a lot of anxiety and worry. I was really unhappy.(我有一个很好的养老金和年假，但它引起了很多焦虑和担忧。我真的很不开心)”可知，作者虽然工作待遇不错，但是感到焦虑和担心，觉得不开心。由此推知，作者觉得Dublin的工作压力很大。故选A项。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段划线句子前的“I decided to volunteer with a local youth group and within a month, I’d gone camping with them. I absolutely loved it.(我决定在当地的一个青年团体做志愿者，不到一个月，我就和他们一起去露营了。我非常喜欢它)”可知，作者很喜欢与年轻人户外活动，划线句子的下文“This was what I’d been missing.(这就是我一直错过的)”可知，这是作者错过的，也就是指的上文中作者喜欢的户外活动，this指代的内容是划线句子。由此可知，划线句子的意思为“他意识到自己真正喜欢的是什么”。故选B项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“It was the perfect fit to combine my psychology background with my passion for the outdoors. I began taking courses in wild therapy, forest bathing and ecopsychology.(将我的心理学背景与我对户外活动的热情相结合是完美的选择。我开始参加野外疗法、森林浴和生态心理学课程)”可知，作者将他的心理学专业和自己对户外运动的热爱结合起来，并创办了Nature Therapy Ireland。故选D项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“In Dublin, the front door felt like a barrier — I had to have my keys, my phone, my jacket before I could even go out and find a green space. My life now is leading nature connection hikes and forest bathing walks. My salary has halved for the moment but I’ve adjusted. I’ve never looked back.(在都柏林，前门感觉就像一道屏障——我必须拿到钥匙、手机和夹克，然后才能出去找绿地。我现在的生活是领导自然联系远足和森林浴散步。我的薪水暂时减半，但我已经调整了。我从未回头)”可知，作者觉得在Dublin自己的前门就是挡住自己与大自然接触的障碍，而在Tipperary，作者完全与大自然融合，而且永远不会回头，结合作者自己对大自然的热爱。由此推知，作者对现在生活很满意。故选C项。 C Chinese society, basically agricultural, has always laid great stress on understanding the pattern of nature and living in harmony with it. The world of nature was seen as the visible expression of the workings of a higher power through the interaction of the Chinese philosophy of yin and yang. As Chinese art developed, its purpose turned to the expression of human understanding of these forces, in the form of painting of landscapes, bamboo, birds, and flowers. Particularly in early times, art also had social and moral functions. The earliest wall paintings referred to in ancient texts often described merciful emperors, officials, and their evil opposites as examples and warnings to the living. Human relationships have always been of great importance in China, and a common theme of figure painting is that of gentlemen enjoying staying together or of the depressing partings and infrequent reunions. Among the typical themes of traditional Chinese art, there is no place for war, violence or death. No theme would be accepted in traditional Chinese art that was not inspiring, noble, or refreshing to the spirit. In the broadest sense, therefore, all traditional Chinese art is symbolic, for everything that is painted reflects some aspect of what the painter is aware of. Bamboo suggests the spirit of the person, which can be bent by circumstance but never broken. The dragon is the wholly kind-hearted symbol of the emperor; the crane (鹤) symbolizes long life; and paired mandarin ducks symbolize wedded loyalty. Popular among the many symbols drawn from the plant world are the orchid (兰花), a symbol of purity; the plum blossom (梅花), which comes out even in the snow and stands for uncontrollable purity, in either a revolutionary political or a spiritual sense; and the pine tree, which may represent either survival in a fierce political environment or the unconquerable spirit of old age. 28. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. The art. B. The painting. C. The theme. D. The relationship. 29. Which of the following best describes the typical themes of traditional Chinese art? A. Violent and alarming. B. Material and instructive. C. True-to-life and educative. D. Positive and inspiring. 30. How does the author introduce traditional Chinese art in the last paragraph? A. By giving examples. B. By making comparisons. C. By analyzing causes. D. By following time order. 31. Which is the best title for the passage? A. The Role of Traditional Chinese Art B. Agriculture and Traditional Chinese Art C. Significance and Value of Traditional Chinese Art D. Characteristic Themes and Symbols of Traditional Chinese Art 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国传统艺术所表达的特色主题和象征意义。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前半句“Human relationships have always been of great importance in China, and a common theme of figure painting(人际关系在中国一直是非常重要的，人物画的一个共同主题)”可知，人物画的一个共同主题是士大夫喜欢呆在一起，或者是令人沮丧的离别和难得的团聚。代词that指代前文中的“theme(主题)”。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“No theme would be accepted in traditional Chinese art that was not inspiring, noble, or refreshing to the spirit. (在中国传统艺术中，没有一种主题不令人振奋，不高贵，不令人精神振奋。)”可知，积极和鼓舞人心是中国传统艺术的典型主题。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Bamboo suggests the spirit of the person, which can be bent by circumstance but never broken. The dragon is the wholly kind-hearted symbol of the emperor; the crane (鹤) symbolizes long life; and paired mandarin ducks symbolize wedded loyalty. Popular among the many symbols drawn from the plant world are the orchid (兰花), a symbol of purity; the plum blossom (梅花), which comes out even in the snow and stands for uncontrollable purity, in either a revolutionary political or a spiritual sense; and the pine tree, which may represent either survival in a fierce political environment or the unconquerable spirit of old age. (竹子象征着人的精神，可以被环境所弯曲，但绝不能折断。龙是完全善良的皇帝的象征；鹤象征长寿；配对的鸳鸯象征着婚姻的忠诚。从植物世界中提取的许多符号中流行的是兰花，象征纯洁；梅花，即使在雪地里也开放，无论是在革命的政治意义上还是在精神意义上，都代表着不可控制的纯洁；还有松树，它可能代表着在激烈的政治环境中生存，也可能代表着老年时不可征服的精神。)”可推断，最后一段作者通过举例来介绍中国传统艺术的。故A。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“In the broadest sense, therefore, all traditional Chinese art is symbolic, for everything that is painted reflects some aspect of what the painter is aware of.(因此，从最广泛的意义上说，所有的中国传统艺术都是象征性的，因为所画的一切都反映了画家所知的某些方面。)”及全文可知，文章主要介绍了中国传统艺术所表达的特色主题和象征意义。所以“Characteristic Themes and Symbols of Traditional Chinese Art(中国传统艺术的特色主题和象征)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。 D Nothing is more American than blue jeans. The blue denim pants(牛仔裤) were invented in 1871 and were initially made for miners and cowboys but became a popular fashion among youth in the 1950s and 1960s. Denim soon became accepted by most people, making jean pants, jackets, skirts, and more a big part of western culture. Now, Wrangler which has been making jeans since 1947, is greening the industry by dyeing denim with indigo—the deep blue color used for jeans-foam(泡沫), instead of the traditional way of using vats of Indigo liquid dye. While indigo is a natural compound and has been used to dye cloth for centuries, most of the indigo dyes used today are manmade, and dyeing thread for the production of blue jeans is very wasteful. The thread has to be pulled through multiple dye boxes filled with around 2,000 liters of liquid dye and water, and the process has to be repeated several times for the dye to hold according to Fast Company. The new eco-friendly foam dyeing method was developed at Texas Tech and uses over 99 percent less water than the traditional method. In 2017, Wrangler, the Walmart Foundation, and Lee, another blue jeans brand• invested in new technology to make the industry more sustainable. In the new “Indigo good” methods the process saves more than just water; it is expected to use 60 percent less energy and produces 60 percent less waste. “While we have been able to reduce 3 billion liters of water in product finishing during the past 10 years, we know that more needs to be done across the entire supply chain.” Wrangler president Tom Waldron told Fashion Network. “Foam technology reduces water consumption and pollution further upstream.” 32. Whom were blue jeans first aimed at? A. Miners. B. Youth. C. The old. D. The majority. 33. What may be the difference between indigo used now and centuries ago? A. Source of raw materials. B. Amount of usages. C. Pollution levels. D. Process of dyeing. 34. What's the advantage of the new foam dyeing method? A. Saving time. B. Reducing water's waste. C. Attracting employees. D. Causing no pollution. 35. What can we know according to Tom Waldron? A. He requires cooperation with suppliers. B. He is satisfied with the entire supply chain. C. He appeals to further reducing pollution. D. His company is bringing in more profits. 【答案】32. A 33. A 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章一种新型泡沫染色法，这种方法主要是给牛仔服染色，能减少污染和水资源的浪费。 32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句提到“The blue denim pants(牛仔裤) were invented in 1871 and were initially made for miners and cowboys”（蓝色牛仔裤发明于1871年，最初是为矿工和牛仔制作的。）可知，蓝色牛仔裤发明于1871年，最初是为“矿工”和牛仔制作的，故选A。 33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段首句提到“While indigo is a natural compound and has been used to dye cloth for centuries, most of the indigo dyes used today are manmade.”（虽然靛蓝是一种天然化合物，几个世纪以来一直用于染布，但今天使用的大多数靛蓝染料是人造的）可知，早期用的靛蓝是天然染料，但现在使用的靛蓝染料大多是人造的，即“染料的来源”发生了变化，故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段首句提到“The new eco-friendly foam dyeing method was developed at Texas Tech and uses over 99 percent less water than the traditional method.”（这种新的环保泡沫染色方法是由德州理工大学开发的，比传统方法用水量少99%以上。）可知，新的染色方法的好处是“减少水的浪费”。故选B。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段首句提到“While we have been able to reduce 3 billion liters of water in product finishing during the past 10 years, we know that more needs to be done across the entire supply chain.”（虽然我们在过去10年里，已经减少了30亿公升的水用于产品加工，但我们知道在整个供应链中还有更多的工作要做），及最后一段段尾提到“Foam technology reduces water consumption and pollution further upstream.”（泡沫技术减少了上游的用水量和污染。）可推断，作者呼吁进一步减少污染。故选C。 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。 It is natural for us to start drawing a conclusion in most situations before we fully understand what is going on.

E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章分析了人们习惯在未充分了解情况下就草率评判他人的现象及其后果，并提供了三个简单的建议来帮助避免这种尴尬，即花时间倾听、努力理解和发现他人优点。 【36题详解】 上文“It is natural for us to start drawing a conclusion in most situations before we fully understand what is going on. We tend to judge people critically. (在大多数情况下，我们尚未完全了解情况就开始下结论，这是很自然的。我们倾向于对他人进行苛刻的评判。)”描述了人们草率评判的自然倾向。D选项“And then we discover that we are wrong in our judgments. (然后我们发现自己的判断是错误的。)”顺承上文，指出了这种评判倾向可能导致的结果——判断失误，从而引出下文“如何避免这种尴尬局面”。该句是连接问题与解决方案之间的关键过渡。故选D项。 【37题详解】 下文“The best gift you can offer someone is a few minutes of your time before offering your opinion about someone. You might be surprised by just how much you really don’t know about that person until his stories are told. (在你对某人发表意见之前，你能给他的最好礼物是花几分钟时间倾听。直到听了他的故事，你可能会惊讶地发现你对他其实多么不了解。)”的核心在于强调在评判前“花时间”和“听故事”的重要性。A选项“Take time to listen. (花时间去倾听。)”准确地概括了下文的核心建议，且“Take time to”与下文“a few minutes of your time”相呼应。该句作为段首，起到了小标题的作用。故选A项。 【38题详解】 上文“Don’t take things too personal. (不要把每件事都太个人化。)”给出了避免草率评判的一个心态建议。G选项“Keep an open mind and try to make sense of whatever you see or hear. (保持开放的心态，并试着理解你所看到或听到的一切。)”承接上文，进一步给出了更具体的行动指导：以开放的心态去努力理解事物。这与上文“不要太个人化”的精神一致，并引出了下文“Get to know why people act the way they do (去了解人们为何在特定情境下那样行事)”的具体目标。G选项是心态与行动之间的桥梁。故选G项。 【39题详解】 下文“The first thing we usually notice about someone is their bad qualities. Sometimes we will let these bad qualities cloud our sight so that we may mistakenly judge them. Try to look at things from a different perspective. Regardless of how terrible someone is, there is always something good inside him. (我们通常首先注意到一个人的缺点。有时我们会让这些缺点蒙蔽我们的双眼，以至于可能错误地评判他们。试着从不同的角度看问题。无论一个人有多糟糕，他的内心总有一些好的东西。)”阐述了人们容易聚焦缺点，但建议换个视角、努力发现每个人内在的优点。B选项“Try to see the good in people. (努力看到他人的优点。)”完美地概括了下文的核心观点，可以作为本段的小标题。故选B项。 【40题详解】 前文介绍了三个避免草率评判的方法(倾听、理解、发现优点)。下文“Besides, you’ll see the world in a different light and people will trust you and respect you for being someone who has an honest opinion. (此外，你将以不同的眼光看待世界，人们会因为你是一个有公正见解的人而信任你、尊重你。)”描述了遵循这些建议所带来的额外好处。E选项“By following the steps above, you can avoid being too judgmental. (通过遵循以上步骤，你可以避免过于武断地评判他人。)”承接上文，总结应用前文建议的直接效果——避免武断评判。该句总结了三个建议的共同目的，并自然引出了下文的积极影响。故选E项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I’m running half way across Canada — some 3,550 kilometers.

The car had come to an unexpected stop, and like a teenager she did the only thing she could think of-get out and walk. It was cold and late, and home was far away. This could be a long night. If only someone would stop and offer her a ride. She prayed for help and dragged herself forward. The lights of a truck shone from behind as it approached. “Maybe he will stop,” she hoped. The brake lights flashed on as it stopped. Next instant, the cab door opened. A wordless invitation was extended and she understood. Without hesitation the girl climbed up into the cab and closed the door. Slowly the truck pulled back onto the road and disappeared into the night, never to be seen again. I woke up in a cold sweat, alarmed. Was that a dream or was it a vision? It was unbelievably real, and the girl was my daughter! I jumped from my bed and ran to her room. Her bed was empty. I stood in horror trying to think why she had not come home. As the mental fog began to lift, I remembered she was visiting her friend that evening. Perhaps she stayed there for the night. It was 1:30 a.m., but I raced to the phone and dialed a number. “Hello?” The voice was heavy with sleep. “Hey. Sorry to wake you. Becki didn’t come home tonight and I was wondering if she stayed at your place.” “No, she left here a few hours ago. She should have been home at least by midnight!” The voice on the other end began to reflect my own panic. Over the next forty-five minutes I alternated between lying in pray and pacing the floor in anxiety. At 2:15 a.m. lights appeared as a car turned up on our long driveway. I could tell immediately that it was not my daughter’s car. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 My face pressed against the window and.

The car pulled in front of the house, and out of it emerged my precious daughter, making her way up the steps. Tears stinging my eyes, I threw open the door, pulled her inside and hugged her tightly. The dream was just too real and I could hardly believe I was now having my daughter in my hug. I wondered if it was because my prayer was answered. Then through my blurred vision I saw a lady stepping out of the car. “Mom, she gave me a ride home,” Becki said. “My car broke down on the highway and without her help, I would never have made it home in my high heels,” she continued, exposing her blistered ankles. My heart shuddered at the thought of how painfully Becki staggered along the dark highway. She must be an angel for Becki! I approached the lady and invited her inside. Now, I was definitely grateful to her for extending a helping hand. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者梦到女儿深夜独自在公路上艰难行走，惊醒后发现女儿未归，焦急寻找时女儿被陌生女士送回，得知女儿因车抛锚受助的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我把脸贴在窗户上，紧张得几乎喘不过气来。”以及第二段首句内容““妈妈，是这位阿姨载我回来的。”Becki说道。”可知，第一段可描写作者的女儿从一辆陌生的车里出来了。 ②由第二段首句内容““妈妈，是这位阿姨载我回来的。”Becki说道。”可知，第二段可描写Becki讲述了自己的车抛锚，并得到这位阿姨帮助的故事。 2.续写线索：作者把脸贴在窗户上，非常紧张——然后，作者看到自己的女儿从车里走了出来——作者赶紧冲了出去，抱住了女儿——这时，一位女士也从车里走了出来——女儿告知作者自己是坐这位女士的车回来的——原来，Becki的车抛锚了，幸好得到了这位女士的帮忙才回到了家——作者非常感激对方，邀请对方到家中休息 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①拥抱：hug/ embrace ②继续：continue/ go on ③走近：approach/ come close to 情绪类 ①痛苦地：painfully/sorely ②感激的：grateful/ thankful 【点睛】【高分句型1】The dream was just too real and I could hardly believe I was now having my daughter in my hug.（运用了省略that的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】My heart shuddered at the thought of how painfully Becki staggered along the dark highway.（运用了how引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
