People will always remember her smile on her face and her dream to have a shop selling her own products of cross-stitch (十字绣) on line. She is 24 years old without hands. When the host of the program was talking to her, she was always smiling. Her response was so quick and her expression was very good. How could a disabled girl without hands have so much confidence? Everybody was shocked when seeing a lovely and vivid girl standing on this stage showing her dream. When Yang Pei was 9, she was stricken by electricity because of touching an electric wire. Then she lost her hands. Since then she couldn’t go to school. Once she thought she was a fifth wheel for both her family and the society. At home she could do nothing but always needed help and much care. She had ever thought using death to free her family from this big burden. Her mother was very sad when she knew her daughter’s thinking and tried to persuade her daughter to treasure life and live on. With her family’s help, every single problem could be solved. Knowing that. her family would not give her up, she encouraged herself to live on. Once her mother took her to a place in public, then stayed there. A passer-by showed his mercy and gave them 200 yuan. Yang Pei’s self-respect was really hurt. It meant that they were beggars. Yang Pei immediately asked her mother to leave and go home. She didn’t want to live by the way of begging. She was actually unyielding (不屈的). She wanted to get a better life through her own hard work. From then on she began to learn cross-stitch, a Chinese traditional art work: She learned to do needle work, getting thread through the needle with her toes. You can imagine how difficult it is to do needle work with feet. Indeed, she did it. She could do it like a normal person and become very skillful after many times of practicing. When seeing Yang Pei performing her needle work on the spot, the audience were shocked. She used her toes to get the thread through the needle one by one to finish the last part of her work. Many people showed their favor to her: helping her get a store online for free, buying her pictures of cross-stitch, helping her sell her products in the future and so on. Now she has her own products. She can earn money to help her family. She has her own store online to sell her own art works. She achieved her dream. 24. Why do people admire Yang Pei? A. She is a girl of many talents. B. She is always smiling C. She is a lovely and vivid girl. D. She is a disabled girl with much confidence. 25. The underlined phrase “a fifth wheel” in paragraph 3 refers to “________”. A. someone who needs more care B. someone who is unwanted and unneeded C. a person who is lucky and happy D. someone who has to work harder than others to succeed 26.

Man is the artificer (巧匠) of his own happiness. B. Failure is the mother of success. C. Drowning man will catch at a straw. D. Friendship is love with understanding. 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. D 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述无手女孩杨佩身残志坚，凭借毅力学十字绣并实现创业梦想的励志故事。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“She is 24 years old without hands. When the host of the program was talking to her, she was always smiling. Her response was so quick and her expression was very good. How could a disabled girl without hands have so much confidence?(她是一个24岁的无手女孩。当节目主持人和她交谈时，她始终面带微笑。她反应敏捷，神态自若。一个没有双手的残疾女孩怎么会如此自信呢？)”可知，人们敬佩杨佩是因为她虽身有残疾，却拥有远超常人的自信和乐观。故选D项。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“At home she could do nothing but always needed help and much care. She had ever thought using death to free her family from this big burden.(在家里她什么也做不了，总是需要别人的帮助和悉心照顾。她甚至想过用死亡把家人从这个沉重的负担中解脱出来)”可知，杨佩认为自己对家庭和社会毫无用处，是个多余的人。由此推知，“a fifth wheel”的意思是“多余的、不被需要的人”。故选B项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“She didn’t want to live by the way of begging. She was actually unyielding. She wanted to get a better life through her own hard work.(她不想靠乞讨为生。她其实是个不屈服的人。她希望通过自己的努力过上更好的生活)”以及第五段第一句“From then on she began to learn cross-stitch(从那时起，她开始学习十字绣)”可知，杨佩学习十字绣的原因是想靠自己的手艺赚钱，改善生活。故选D项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，杨佩失去双手后，没有向命运低头，也没有选择乞讨度日，而是凭借双脚练习十字绣，最终开了网店售卖自己的作品，实现了经济独立和人生价值。这正印证了“幸福靠自己创造”的道理。故选A项。 C Have you ever found picking out the face of a friend in a group photo is sometimes hard, especially when everyone crowds together? In the same way, it can also be hard to read a passage of text when the letters are too close together. In fact, a new study shows that spacing the letters farther apart can help anyone read faster, and possibly understand more. Dyslexia is a common reading disorder. Crowded text was especially difficult for people with dyslexia to read. So researchers wanted to see if increasing the spacing between letters would help. Steven Stagg, a scientist, studies how people think and learn. His team recruited 59 students between 11 and 15 years old, thirty-two of whom had dyslexia. While the researchers recorded them, each student read two passages out loud. One passage was in its original format. In the other, there was an increase of 2.5 points in the spacing between the litters. The recording allowed the scientists to measure their reading speed and count any mistakes, such as skipped words. People with dyslexia often employ aids to help them read, such as colored overlays (覆盖物). This time they are offered by the researchers. Those colored overlays didn’t help either group of kids. However, kids with dyslexia read the wider-spaced text 13 percent faster than the text with original spacing. These kids also made fewer mistakes. Students without dyslexia read faster, too, although only by 5 percent. This is very good news. It means teachers and publishers can print material with extra spacing between litters. Readers with dyslexia won’t feel singled out by having to use special aids for reading. An organization called Readability Matters is working on these issues. The group is trying to get tech companies to make changes that should make reading easier. Stagg says, “Some methods have shown mixed results, but Letter spacing seems to be the one thing that everyone is finding works.” 28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To make the article interesting. B. To present a common problem. C. To lead to the topic of the article. D. To provide a new solution. 29. What do you know about people with Dyslexia? A. They may understand everything while reading wider-spaced text. B. They may read faster than normal kids while reading wider- spaced text. C. They may free from dyslexia after increasing letter spacing. D. They may feel singled out while using colored layouts for reading. 30. In which column of a newspaper can we probably find this passage? A. Science study. B. Campus life. C. Star stories. D. Business. 31. What is the best title for the text? A. Readers Try to Improve Reading Speed B. You Just Need More Space C. Colored Overlays Are Helpful Aids D. Dyslexia Affects Reading Speed 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了，一项研究表明，增加字母间距有助于帮助患有阅读障碍的人阅读，让无阅读障碍的人阅读速度更快。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。由第一段“Have you ever found picking out the face of a friend in a group photo is sometimes hard, especially when everyone crowds together? In the same way, it can also be hard to read a passage of text when the letters are too close together. In fact, a new study shows that spacing the letters farther apart can help anyone read faster, and possibly understand more. (你有没有发现在合影中辨认朋友的脸有时很难，尤其是当所有人都聚在一起的时候？同样，当字母靠得太近时，也很难阅读一段文字。事实上，一项新的研究表明，将字母间隔得更远可以帮助任何人读得更快，甚至可能理解得更多)”可知，与在合影中辨认朋友的脸有时很难一样，字母靠得太近也让人难以辨认，而研究表明加大字母间隔能帮助人提高阅读速度和理解，正好承接下文，引出第二段中的“Crowded text was especially difficult for people with dyslexia to read. So researchers wanted to see if increasing the spacing between letters would help. (对于诵读困难的人来说，拥挤的文本尤其难以阅读。因此，研究人员想看看增加字母间距是否有帮助)”提出的“增加字母间距是否有助于帮助患有阅读障碍的人阅读”（全文主题）的研究，可得出第一段的目的是引出文章的主题。故选C项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。由第四段中的“People with dyslexia often employ aids to help them read, such as colored overlays (覆盖物). (阅读困难症患者经常使用辅助工具来帮助他们阅读，比如彩色覆盖物)”和倒数二段中的“Readers with dyslexia won’t feel singled out by having to use special aids for reading. (阅读障碍的读者不会因为必须使用特殊的阅读辅助工具而感到孤独)”可知，当阅读障碍患者使用彩色版面阅读时，他们会感到孤独。故选D项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。由第一段中的“In fact, a new study shows that spacing the letters farther apart can help anyone read faster, and possibly understand more. (事实上，一项新的研究表明，将字母间隔得更远可以帮助任何人读得更快，甚至可能理解得更多)”和下文关于“增加字母间距是否有助于帮助患有阅读障碍的人阅读”的研究可知，本文主要是介绍一项科学研究，会在报纸的“科学研究”专栏找到这篇文章。故选A项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。由第一段中的“In fact, a new study shows that spacing the letters farther apart can help anyone read faster, and possibly understand more. (事实上，一项新的研究表明，将字母间隔得更远可以帮助任何人读得更快，甚至可能理解得更多)”，第二段中的“Crowded text was especially difficult for people with dyslexia to read. So researchers wanted to see if increasing the spacing between letters would help. (对于诵读困难的人来说，拥挤的文本尤其难以阅读。因此，研究人员想看看增加字母间距是否有帮助)”和第四段中的“However, kids with dyslexia read the wider-spaced text 13 percent faster than the text with original spacing. These kids also made fewer mistakes. (然而，有阅读障碍的孩子阅读更大间距的文本比阅读原始间距的文本快13%。这些孩子犯的错误也更少)”可知，增加字母间距有助于帮助患有阅读障碍的人阅读，B项“你只需要更多的（字母）空间”符合文意。故选B项。 D Litterati is an app that people can use to upload information about litter they collect outside, such as its appearance, material, location, and brand. Shared online, this information contributes to building a global database of “litter maps”, which can influence policy and packaging design. “Society’s failure to solve the litter problem is not from a lack of trying. There have been public service announcements, and coastal cleanups. But I believe two components are missing from the discussion — community and data,” said Jeff Kirschner, the developer of Litterati app. Uploading pictures to an app shows users that they are not the only ones picking up litter from public places and that others are invested in cleaning the planet, too. And the data accumulates rapidly telling a story that helps people understand who picked up what, where, and when. In this way, people are encouraged to do more. In San Francisco, the Litterati app was able to identify and map more than 5,000 pieces of litter in order to determine how much was caused by cigarettes specifically. Using this information, the city successfully challenged a lawsuit by tobacco companies and doubled an existing cigarette sales tax, bringing in US $4 million annual revenue (税收). By joining forces with others using the same platform, individuals are able to take their anti-litter activism to another level. The power of combined data leads to more Extended Producer Responsibility, which is precisely what we want and advocate here — producers are forced to be responsible for dealing with their own products once consumers no longer find them useful and are incentivized to create more environmentally friendly packaging or better policies as a result of that new responsibility. Litterati takes a refreshingly non-judgmental approach. It shows a positive we-can-do-it attitude. Just as Jeff Kirschner said, “Our goal isn’t to shame. It’s to provide transparency to the problem. We provide access to data and share insights with cities, citizens and businesses, guiding us all to identify the root cause of the problem, and make informed decisions of how to clean the planet.” 32. What makes the society fail to solve the litter problem according to Kirschner? A. People’s poor environmental awareness. B. The absence of government publicity and support. C. The inaction of the community. D. The lack of high technology. 33. Why are tobacco companies mentioned? A. To show the influence of Litterati. B. To describe the details of the map. C. To warn people of the harm of cigarettes. D. To prove the large consumption of tobacco. 34. What can be inferred from the text? A. People can be encouraged to pick up litter only if others are doing so. B. Individuals hardly get involved in picking up litter until the release of Litterati. C. The use of Litterati inspires producers to fulfill further obligations for the society. D. Kirschner developed the app with the aim of appealing to individuals to pick up litter. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Litter Maps: Make Litter-Picking a Fun Way B. Litterati: Transparent Data for a Cleaner World C. Litterati App: Guide People Where to Collect Litter D. Litterati Campaign: Everyone Counts in Litter Picking 【答案】32 C 33. A 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍一个能够提供透明数据，使世界更加清洁的应用程序——Litterati。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段““Society’s failure to solve the litter problem is not from a lack of trying. There have been public service announcements, and coastal cleanups. But I believe two components are missing from the discussion-community and data,” said Jeff Kirschner, the developer of Litterati app.(“社会未能解决垃圾问题并非是因为没有尝试过。确实有过公益宣传，也有过海滩清洁活动。但我认为，在这场讨论中，缺少了两个关键要素——社区参与和相关数据。”Litterati应用程序的开发者杰夫·基尔希纳说道)”可知，因为缺少社区参与和相关数据，所以社会无法解决垃圾问题。故选C。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“In San Francisco, the Litterati app was able to identify and map more than 5,000 pieces of litter in order to determine how much was caused by cigarettes specifically. Using this information, the city successfully challenged a lawsuit by tobacco companies and doubled an existing cigarette sales tax, bringing in US $4 million annual revenue (税收).(在旧金山，Litterati应用程序能够识别和提供5000多件垃圾的信息，以确定有多少是由香烟引起的。利用这些信息，该市成功挑战了烟草公司的诉讼，并将现有的香烟销售税翻了一番，带来了400万美元的年税收)”可知，Litterati能够识别和提供5000多件垃圾的信息，并带来税收。故推知提到烟草公司是为了显示出Litterati的作用和影响，故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“By joining forces with others using the same platform, individuals are able to take their anti-litter activism to another level. The power of combined data leads to more Extended Producer Responsibility, which is precisely what we want and advocate here-producers are forced to be responsible for dealing with their own products once consumers no longer find them useful and are incentivized to create more environmentally friendly packaging or better policies as a result of that new responsibility.(通过与使用相同平台的其他人携手合作，个人能够将他们的反乱扔垃圾行动提升到一个新的高度。整合数据的力量会带来更多的“生产者延伸责任”，而这正是我们所期望和倡导的——生产者必须对消费者不再认为其产品有用时所产生的产品负责，并因此受到激励去创造更环保的包装或制定更好的政策，从而履行这一新的责任)”可知，使用Litterati激励生产者负责处理自己的产品，并激励他们创造更环保的包装或更好的政策，进一步为社会履行义务。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Litterati takes a refreshingly non-judgmental approach. It shows a positive we-can-do-it attitude. Just as Jeff Kirschner said, “Our goal isn’t to shame. It’s to provide transparency to the problem. We provide access to data and share insights with cities, citizens and businesses, guiding us all to identify the root cause of the problem, and make informed decisions of how to clean the planet.”(Litterati 采取了一种令人耳目一新的非评判性态度。它展现出一种积极的“我们能够做到”的态度。正如杰夫·基什纳所说：“我们的目标并非羞辱他人。而是要向大家揭示问题的本质。我们提供数据的访问权限，并与城市、市民和企业分享见解，引导我们所有人找出问题的根源，并就如何保护地球做出明智的决策。”)”可知，文章主要介绍一个能够提供透明数据，使世界更加清洁的应用程序——Litterati。所以文章标题应是Litterati：透明数据，清洁世界，故选B。 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。 Everyone wants to increase his brain power so that he can create new ideas. ____36____ Then what works to make it?

Here are some ways that may be helpful.(那么，怎样做才能实现这一点呢？以下是一些可能会有帮助的方法)”可知，此空需要起到过渡作用，承接前文“产生新想法”的需求，同时引出后文的具体方法。D选项“However, new ideas can’t be born without inspiration.(然而，没有灵感就无法产生新想法)”以转折词衔接前文，点明“灵感”是产生新想法的关键前提，引出下文提升灵感的方法，符合语境。故选D项。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Do something out of the ordinary to get out of your routine and provide inspiration.(做一些打破常规的事，跳出日常惯例，获取灵感)”可知，此空需要对“做非常规的事”这一建议进行举例说明。G选项“For instance, if you live in the city, plan a camping weekend for a change of pace.(例如，如果你住在城市里，可以计划一次周末露营来改变节奏)”中“For instance”明确表示举例，“城市居民计划露营”正是打破日常惯例的具体行为，符合本段主旨。故选G项。 【38题详解】 根据上文“For inspiration, look for motivational speakers by attending lectures or watching TED talks.(为了获取灵感，可以通过参加讲座或观看TED演讲来寻找励志演讲者)”以及下文“Visit www.TED.com/talks to browse a large library of motivational talks by topic.(访问www.TED.com/talks网站，按主题浏览大量励志演讲资源)”可知，此空需要补充“参加线下讲座”的具体方法。F选项“Check the websites for local universities to see the listing of scheduled lectures.(查看当地大学的网站，看看安排的讲座列表)”提供了查找线下讲座的途径，与前文的“attending lectures”相呼应，且和后文的TED网站建议形成并列的信息补充，符合语境。故选F项。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Music can add your brainstorming sessions, or be the inspiration for your ideas.(音乐可以为你的头脑风暴助力，也可以成为你灵感的源泉)”以及下文“For example, if you’re a fan of classic rock, make an effort to listen to jazz or R&B music for a new experience.(例如，如果你是经典摇滚迷，不妨尝试听听爵士乐或节奏蓝调，获得全新体验)”可知，此空需要提出“体验不同类型音乐”的建议，引出后文的举例。E选项“Try to listen to a wide range to vary your musical experience.（尝试广泛聆听以丰富你的音乐体验）”提出了广泛听不同音乐的建议，是后文举例的总起句，符合语境。故选E项。 【40题详解】 根据下文“Exercising can raise your focus for 2 or 3 hours, upping your brainstorming power. It can also boost your mood by raising serotonin (血清素) levels in the brain, and increase your overall productivity. To keep your mind in top shape, get at least thirty minutes of exercise a day (e. g. walking, running, bicycling), preferably before you sit down to work out ideas.(锻炼可以让你的专注力持续提升 2 到 3 个小时，增强头脑风暴的能力。锻炼还能通过提高大脑中的血清素水平来改善情绪，同时提升你的整体工作效率。想要让大脑保持最佳状态，每天至少要进行 30 分钟的锻炼（比如散步、跑步、骑自行车），最好是在坐下来构思创意之前完成)”可知，本段围绕“锻炼对提升脑力的作用”展开，此空应是本段的小标题，概括核心内容。B选项“Work out on a regular basis.（规律锻炼）”精准概括了本段主题。故选B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。 On a bright fall day, Cooper Erickson and Ethan Olds were walking with quick and long steps toward the finish line of a cross-country track.

I’ll admit it. I can be a complainer. After all, there’s so much in my life that annoys me: my school work, my brother’s dirty shoes, the neighbor’s loud music, rainy days, traffic jams… Complaining is what I have developed since childhood. My family doesn’t seem to mind. Mom always tries to excuse my behavior as something that I would outgrow, but I do remember some eye-rolling and long-drawn sighs from friends and families when I would voice my negative opinions. In fact, I can clearly recall the exact moment when I first realized my complaining habit deeply hurt people around. I had a generally pleasant high school life with my usually mild-mannered deskmate Lucy in Senior 2. Sure, there was still plenty to complain about, but she never seemed to mind. Or so I thought. Then, on a hot summer afternoon, we sat in our classroom - no wind, no air conditioning, the sweat messing my hair. Impatiently, I whispered something about the situation under my breath. Probably for the tenth time. Also, I reminded her once again to remove her arms from my table and take her books away, she put up her hand, turned to me and shouted, “Stop! Stop your complaining. It’s driving me crazy.” Her eyes widened. Turning away, she didn’t speak to me for the rest of the day. Perhaps I’d gone too far, I thought. Maybe I really did complain too much. I took a breath and sat down to think about solutions. I could hide myself in the washing room and scream. No. Other students would probably hear me. Turn to teachers or my family? They probably wouldn’t mind as well. Then it hit me. I’d been in the habit of keeping a journal. Journaling kept me sort of honest with myself, and I liked it for that reason. Perhaps, I thought, a complaint journal might be the answer I was seeking. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150 左右； 2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That night, I sat down in front my desk and gave it a try. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I made up my mind to apologize to Lucy the next day. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】That night, I sat down in front of my desk and gave it a try. When I took the pen, the upsetting moment with Lucy flashed across my mind again. I poured my complaint out onto the page, detailing her every single annoying behaviour. However, as I wrote, a sense of guilt crept up on me. It dawned on me that she always put up with my complaints. I began to reflect on myself and mend my own way. It is my complaint that affects the life of people around me. I made up my mind to apologize to Lucy the next day. Immediately I met her, I said sorry to her, told her my regret and determination to change and asked her to remind me when I complained. She accepted my apology and agreed. Open to each other, we would make a fresh start. Writing down the complaint words lifted my weight from my shoulders and left me more time to reflect on myself. Gradually, I found my words changed, and my life changed as well. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章主要讲述了作者本人是一个惯性抱怨者，并且这一习惯是小时候就培养起来的。因为习惯性抱怨高中的时候，与同桌，一个阳光开朗的女孩，产生了矛盾。作意识到自己的问题，决定通过写“抱怨日记”改变这一习惯。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“那天晚上，我坐在书桌前试了试。”可知，第一段可描写作者尝试把抱怨都写在了纸上，同时描写作者得感受和变化。 ②由第二段首句内容“我下定决心第二天向露西道歉。”可知，第二段可描写作者向Lucy道歉的经过，以及决定改掉抱怨的坏习惯和写抱怨日记带来的变化。 2.续写线索：尝试写下抱怨——如释重负——改善关系——敞开心扉——带来的改变 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①拿起：take/pick up ②突然想到：dawn on/occur to 情绪类 ①我感到内疚：a sense of guilt crept up on me/ I really feel bad about it ②道歉：say sorry to/apologize to sb. 【点睛】【高分句型1】I poured my complaint out onto the page, detailing her every single annoying behaviour.（运用了现在分词作状语） 【高分句型2】It is my complaint that affects the life of people around me.（运用了强调句型） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 英语（十二） 选择性必修第一册（二） 考生注意： 1. 本试卷由四个部分组成。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2. 答题前，考生务必将密封线内的项目填写清楚。 3. 请将选择题的答案填在非选择题前面的答题表中。非选择题用黑色墨水签字笔答题 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Which color carpet does the man like best?

CES presents the latest technology offerings from companies across the world. Here is a look at some of the top products presented at the show this year. Transparent televisions LG and Samsung brought televisions that have a transparent (透明的) screen design to CES. The TVs use OLED technology. They’re designed to be hidden in a room when not in use. The companies presenting the TVs haven’t provided pricing information, but experts say the transparent models are likely to cost tens of thousands of dollars. Robot pet sitter Robotics developer Ogmen presented a new machine designed to assist pets. The ORo robot is equipped with a food container to feed animals. It can also play with pets, record health details and take photos and videos of animals’ daily activities. Body power to charge a phone Sports equipment developer LifeSpan introduced an exercise bicycle/desk combination that uses human power to charge phones or other devices. The Ampera bike is designed to be used with a “standing” desk table. LifeSpan says at a speed of 60 rpms, the bike can produce up to 65 watts of electricity per hour. Home-made ice cream in 2 minutes The ColdSnap company introduced a machine that can make single servings of ice cream in about two minutes.

B Yang Pei becomes known all over China since she appeared on the stage of Dream Show. People will always remember her smile on her face and her dream to have a shop selling her own products of cross-stitch (十字绣) on line. She is 24 years old without hands. When the host of the program was talking to her, she was always smiling. Her response was so quick and her expression was very good. How could a disabled girl without hands have so much confidence? Everybody was shocked when seeing a lovely and vivid girl standing on this stage showing her dream. When Yang Pei was 9, she was stricken by electricity because of touching an electric wire. Then she lost her hands. Since then she couldn’t go to school. Once she thought she was a fifth wheel for both her family and the society. At home she could do nothing but always needed help and much care. She had ever thought using death to free her family from this big burden. Her mother was very sad when she knew her daughter’s thinking and tried to persuade her daughter to treasure life and live on. With her family’s help, every single problem could be solved. Knowing that. her family would not give her up, she encouraged herself to live on. Once her mother took her to a place in public, then stayed there. A passer-by showed his mercy and gave them 200 yuan. Yang Pei’s self-respect was really hurt. It meant that they were beggars. Yang Pei immediately asked her mother to leave and go home. She didn’t want to live by the way of begging. She was actually unyielding (不屈的). She wanted to get a better life through her own hard work. From then on she began to learn cross-stitch, a Chinese traditional art work: She learned to do needle work, getting thread through the needle with her toes. You can imagine how difficult it is to do needle work with feet. Indeed, she did it. She could do it like a normal person and become very skillful after many times of practicing. When seeing Yang Pei performing her needle work on the spot, the audience were shocked. She used her toes to get the thread through the needle one by one to finish the last part of her work. Many people showed their favor to her: helping her get a store online for free, buying her pictures of cross-stitch, helping her sell her products in the future and so on. Now she has her own products. She can earn money to help her family. She has her own store online to sell her own art works. She achieved her dream. 24. Why do people admire Yang Pei? A. She is a girl of many talents. B. She is always smiling C. She is a lovely and vivid girl. D. She is a disabled girl with much confidence. 25. The underlined phrase “a fifth wheel” in paragraph 3 refers to “________”. A. someone who needs more care B. someone who is unwanted and unneeded C. a person who is lucky and happy D. someone who has to work harder than others to succeed 26. Why did Yang Pei begin to learn cross-stitch? A. Cross-stitch is a Chinese traditional art work. B. It is easy for her to do needle work with feet. C. She is always fond of cross-stitch since she was young. D. She wanted to get a better life by selling her own products of cross-stitch. 27. What can we learn from Yang Pei’s story? A. Man is the artificer (巧匠) of his own happiness. B. Failure is the mother of success. C. Drowning man will catch at a straw. D. Friendship is love with understanding. C Have you ever found picking out the face of a friend in a group photo is sometimes hard, especially when everyone crowds together? In the same way, it can also be hard to read a passage of text when the letters are too close together. In fact, a new study shows that spacing the letters farther apart can help anyone read faster, and possibly understand more. Dyslexia is a common reading disorder. Crowded text was especially difficult for people with dyslexia to read. So researchers wanted to see if increasing the spacing between letters would help. Steven Stagg, a scientist, studies how people think and learn. His team recruited 59 students between 11 and 15 years old, thirty-two of whom had dyslexia. While the researchers recorded them, each student read two passages out loud. One passage was in its original format. In the other, there was an increase of 2.5 points in the spacing between the litters. The recording allowed the scientists to measure their reading speed and count any mistakes, such as skipped words. People with dyslexia often employ aids to help them read, such as colored overlays (覆盖物). This time they are offered by the researchers. Those colored overlays didn’t help either group of kids. However, kids with dyslexia read the wider-spaced text 13 percent faster than the text with original spacing. These kids also made fewer mistakes. Students without dyslexia read faster, too, although only by 5 percent. This is very good news. It means teachers and publishers can print material with extra spacing between litters. Readers with dyslexia won’t feel singled out by having to use special aids for reading. An organization called Readability Matters is working on these issues. The group is trying to get tech companies to make changes that should make reading easier. Stagg says, “Some methods have shown mixed results, but Letter spacing seems to be the one thing that everyone is finding works.” 28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To make the article interesting. B. To present a common problem. C. To lead to the topic of the article. D. To provide a new solution. 29. What do you know about people with Dyslexia? A. They may understand everything while reading wider-spaced text. B. They may read faster than normal kids while reading wider- spaced text. C. They may free from dyslexia after increasing letter spacing. D. They may feel singled out while using colored layouts for reading. 30. In which column of a newspaper can we probably find this passage? A. Science study. B. Campus life. C. Star stories. D. Business. 31. What is the best title for the text? A. Readers Try to Improve Reading Speed B. You Just Need More Space C. Colored Overlays Are Helpful Aids D. Dyslexia Affects Reading Speed D Litterati is an app that people can use to upload information about litter they collect outside, such as its appearance, material, location, and brand. Shared online, this information contributes to building a global database of “litter maps”, which can influence policy and packaging design. “Society’s failure to solve the litter problem is not from a lack of trying. There have been public service announcements, and coastal cleanups. But I believe two components are missing from the discussion — community and data,” said Jeff Kirschner, the developer of Litterati app. Uploading pictures to an app shows users that they are not the only ones picking up litter from public places and that others are invested in cleaning the planet, too. And the data accumulates rapidly telling a story that helps people understand who picked up what, where, and when. In this way, people are encouraged to do more. In San Francisco, the Litterati app was able to identify and map more than 5,000 pieces of litter in order to determine how much was caused by cigarettes specifically. Using this information, the city successfully challenged a lawsuit by tobacco companies and doubled an existing cigarette sales tax, bringing in US $4 million annual revenue (税收). By joining forces with others using the same platform, individuals are able to take their anti-litter activism to another level. The power of combined data leads to more Extended Producer Responsibility, which is precisely what we want and advocate here — producers are forced to be responsible for dealing with their own products once consumers no longer find them useful and are incentivized to create more environmentally friendly packaging or better policies as a result of that new responsibility. Litterati takes a refreshingly non-judgmental approach. It shows a positive we-can-do-it attitude. Just as Jeff Kirschner said, “Our goal isn’t to shame. It’s to provide transparency to the problem. We provide access to data and share insights with cities, citizens and businesses, guiding us all to identify the root cause of the problem, and make informed decisions of how to clean the planet.” 32. What makes the society fail to solve the litter problem according to Kirschner? A. People’s poor environmental awareness. B. The absence of government publicity and support. C. The inaction of the community. D. The lack of high technology. 33. Why are tobacco companies mentioned? A To show the influence of Litterati. B. To describe the details of the map. C. To warn people of the harm of cigarettes. D. To prove the large consumption of tobacco. 34. What can be inferred from the text? A. People can be encouraged to pick up litter only if others are doing so. B. Individuals hardly get involved in picking up litter until the release of Litterati. C. The use of Litterati inspires producers to fulfill further obligations for the society. D. Kirschner developed the app with the aim of appealing to individuals to pick up litter. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Litter Maps: Make Litter-Picking a Fun Way B. Litterati: Transparent Data for a Cleaner World C. Litterati App: Guide People Where to Collect Litter D Litterati Campaign: Everyone Counts in Litter Picking 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。 Everyone wants to increase his brain power so that he can create new ideas. ____36____ Then what works to make it?

I’ll admit it. I can be a complainer. After all, there’s so much in my life that annoys me: my school work, my brother’s dirty shoes, the neighbor’s loud music, rainy days, traffic jams… Complaining is what I have developed since childhood. My family doesn’t seem to mind. Mom always tries to excuse my behavior as something that I would outgrow, but I do remember some eye-rolling and long-drawn sighs from friends and families when I would voice my negative opinions. In fact, I can clearly recall the exact moment when I first realized my complaining habit deeply hurt people around. I had a generally pleasant high school life with my usually mild-mannered deskmate Lucy in Senior 2. Sure, there was still plenty to complain about, but she never seemed to mind. Or so I thought. Then, on a hot summer afternoon, we sat in our classroom - no wind, no air conditioning, the sweat messing my hair. Impatiently, I whispered something about the situation under my breath. Probably for the tenth time. Also, I reminded her once again to remove her arms from my table and take her books away, she put up her hand, turned to me and shouted, “Stop! Stop your complaining. It’s driving me crazy.” Her eyes widened. Turning away, she didn’t speak to me for the rest of the day. Perhaps I’d gone too far, I thought. Maybe I really did complain too much. I took a breath and sat down to think about solutions. I could hide myself in the washing room and scream. No. Other students would probably hear me. Turn to teachers or my family? They probably wouldn’t mind as well. Then it hit me. I’d been in the habit of keeping a journal. Journaling kept me sort of honest with myself and I liked it for that reason. Perhaps, I thought, a complaint journal might be the answer I was seeking. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150 左右； 2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That night, I sat down in front my desk and gave it a try. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I made up my mind to apologize to Lucy the next day. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试现在开始，第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。This great carpet is exactly what we are looking for. but I like the red one best IT would look Better than the gray one in the bedroom.

Thankfully, things are about to change for the good. Tonight, the skies will be calmer and the temperatures will be warmer. There will be a few showers hanging around next morning, but by the afternoon, most areas will be enjoying bright sunshine with temperatures up to fifteen degrees southeast. The positive weather continues into friday, and by the weekend, coastal areas will be up to eighteen degree sales, twenty degree southeast.
