Some of the summer’s highlights include pianist Inon Barnatan, who plays Rameau, Ravel, Stravinsky and Rachmaninoff. Rockport’s season ends with the superb Borromeo String Quartet (四重奏), with guest pianist David Deveau and guest violist Barry Shiffman, in music by Bach, Mozart and Brahms-a concert that may very well distract you from the view. New Hampshire Music Festival Various locations July 9-Aug 1 If you’re spending any time in New Hampshire this summer, keep your eye out for these appealing concerts from small chamber groups and small and large orchestras popping up all around the Granite State, promoting community engagement with classical and modern music. This festival includes both lovable standards and fresh, more recent pieces on its programs. For example, the program titled “Midsummer Serenade” presents pieces for string orchestra as Grieg’s “Holberg” Suite, Lars-Erik Larsson’s Concertino for Trombone and Strings and Dvorak’s String Serenade. Newport Classical Music Festival Different locations July 5-21 For one of New England’s outstanding concert series, the venues are some of the great Newport mansions. Many of the concerts are already sold out, so here are a few for which tickets are still available at the time of this writing (but probably not for long). The wonderful Tony Award-winning Broadway star Laura Benanti has two concerts. Vıolinist Anne Akiko Meyers and pianist Max Levinson make up a superb duo (一重奏) for a program ranging from Corelli and Beethoven to Philip Glass and Morten Lauridsen. 1. When can the visitors enjoy all the three Music Festivals? A. From the 9th day to the last day of the 6th month. B. From the 1st day to the 5th day of the 8th month. C. From the 10th day to the 20th day of the 7th month. D. From the 17th day of the 6th month to 1st, Aug. 2. What’s special about New Hampshire Music Festival? A. It features famous musicians. B. It is a festival touring the world. C. It can be viewed both online and offline. D. It shows a mix of classical and modern styles. 3. Where probably can we read this article? A. A research report. B. A science fiction. C. A music textbook. D. A travel brochure. B Rathee discovered YouTube in 2014, a time when cheap smartphones and cellular (蜂窝) data led to a boom in Internet access in India. Inspired by videos he watched online, Rathee, now 28, started a travel vlog. But he soon noticed a problem. “People in India weren’t trained on how to use the Internet and blindly trusted whatever they saw on YouTube or WhatsApp,” he says. So Rathee, who grew up in a small northern Indian town in the state of Haryana and later studied mechanical engineering in Germany, became what he calls a “YouTube educator”, making videos in Hindi that fact-check topics that are trending on Indian social media. “My aim is to present things as simply as possible and break down complex issues in simple words,” he says. Rathee’s work is incredibly popular. He has accumulated nearly 13 million subscribers (订阅者), making his YouTube channel one of the most-viewed in the country. It has also led to conflicts. When a film called The Kerala Story began making waves in May, Rathee made a 23-minute video in which he argued that the film promoted a false theory. Though Rathee used the government’s data and international sources to support his claim, his fact-checking led to consequences, including threats sent to his family. Despite the risks, Rathee remains calm. He makes videos for one reason. “I hope they teach people tolerance, coexistence, and accepting each other’s opinions, values that I myself really value,” he says. “I’m surprised doing such a simple thing can bring so much attention,” he adds, “maybe because no one dares to do that.” 4. What problem did Rathee notice with Indians? A. They were addicted to online videos. B. They had limited access to the Internet. C. They blindly subscribed to travel vlogs. D. They easily fell for misleading information. 5. Why did Rathee make his video about the film? A. To attract attention and followers. B. To emphasize his previous argument. C. To analyze the government’s data. D. To prevent the spread of a false theory. 6 What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Criticizing traditional values. B. Getting rid of rigid rules. C. Making fact-checking videos. D. Challenging the authority. 7. Which word could best describe Rathee’s work? A. Enlightening. B. Entertaining. C. Comprehensive. D. Complicated. C Initial conversations can have a huge impact on how relationships develop over time. People are often stuck in the impressions they think they might have made the minute they finish speaking with someone for the first time: “Did they like me or were they just being polite?” “Were they deep in thought or deeply bored?” To find out whether these worries are necessary, we have conducted nearly 10 years of research. In our studies, participants in the UK talked with someone they had never met before. Afterward, they were asked how much they liked their conversation partner and how much they believed that their conversation partner liked them. This allowed us to compare how much people believed they were liked to how much they were actually liked. Time and time again, we found that people left their conversations with negative feelings about the impression they made. That is, people underestimate (低估) how much their conversation partners like them and enjoy their company — a false belief we call the “liking gap”. This bias (成见) may seem like something that would occur only in initial interactions, but its effects extend far beyond a first impression. Surprisingly, the liking gap can constantly affect a variety of relationships, including interactions with coworkers, long after the initial conversations have taken place. Having a larger liking gap is associated with being less willing to ask workmates for help, less willing to provide workmates with open and honest feedback, and less willing to work on another project together. There are numerous strategies to minimize your biased feelings. One place to start is shifting your focus of attention. Try to direct your attention to your conversation partner, be genuinely curious about them, ask them more questions, and really listen to their answers. The more you zero in on the other person, and the less you’re focused on yourself, the better your conversation will be and the less your mind will turn to all the things you think you didn’t do well. 8. Why did the author carry out nearly 10 years of research? A. To check out a potential bias. B. To explore communication strategies. C. To build harmonious relationships. D. To interpret the role of first impressions. 9. What is one effect of people’s liking gap? A. Increasing conflicts with workmates. B. Underestimation of their capabilities. C. Low willingness to interact with others. D. Fewer opportunities for new projects. 10. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. To give warnings. B. To propose solutions. C. To restate opinions. D. To draw a conclusion. 11 Which might be the best title for the text? A. First Impressions Rely on Initial Conversations B. Liking Gap May Determine Work Performance C. People Probably Like You More Than You Think D. How People Like You Matters Less Than You Assume D In this digital age, information is increasingly digitized through the wide use of technology. Newspapers, magazines and even textbooks are becoming or expected to be digital soon. However, despite the sharp increase of such technology in daily life. Print media is far from becoming unnecessary. I don’t think that reading in print is a dying mode. Firstly, print offers a super reading experience. The feeling of holding a book in our hands, feeling its weight and turning over its pages, helps us to be immersed (沉浸) in and engaged fully with the material. The act of turning over pages also helps to direct ourselves in the concepts and structure of the text. In contrast, reading through a number of pages on a device is unsatisfying, and we can lose track of how much we have read. In addition, the artificial glow of digital screens tires one’s eyes out, and can even affect one’s sleep. Moreover, physical copies express greater aesthetic (审美的) beauty than digital ones. The designs that beautify book covers and spines make the ideas complete and add beauty to our homes as well. The wrinkles that have accumulated over time leave us with an emotional attachment to the books themselves. Furthermore, the presentation of content in print also allows for greater appreciation of imagery. In contrast to the restrictions of digital screens, the tangible (可触摸的) nature of print allows for clear imagery that is impactful in its presence. Advocates of digital print support the convenience of the medium. Indeed, e-readers provide a convenient solution to storage and transportation. However, this carries its own weaknesses as well. For one, the use of digital media requires the investment in a smart device. For another, taking notes on the printed text is easier. In conclusion, despite the convenience afforded by digital media, physical print still remains a popular mode of reading today. The “less is more” nature of print media remains its strongest selling point today. 12. Why is print reading considered more immersive than digital reading? A. Print allows readers to read faster and more efficiently. B. Print helps readers track their reading and stay engaged. C. Print offers readers greater accessibility and convenience. D. Print protects readers’ eyes and improves their sleep quality. 13. Where does the greater aesthetic beauty of physical copies come from? A. Ease of transportation. B. Vivid images. C. Emotional connection. D. Abundant ideas. 14. What’s the main purpose of the text? A. To introduce two types of reading modes. B. To inform people of a new trend in reading. C. To argue why print reading will not disappear. D To persuade people to embrace digital reading. 15. How does the author state the opinion? A. By listing examples. B. By explaining a concept. C. By giving a definition. D. By making a comparison. 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The way we watch television has changed, as many of us no longer follow the old model of television. In the past, a new episode (集) of a show was released once a week. ___16___ People, therefore, have created a new term:binge-watching (狂欢式刷剧). It is used to describe the behavior of watching many episodes of a whole series in a row. ___17___ In fact, a 2018 Morning Consult poll (民意调查) found that 60 percent of American adults who watched shows binge-watched. The percentage even increased among younger audiences. ___18___ Of course, every new cultural behavior has its accompanying health consequences. What is binge-watching doing to our health? ___19___ They sent an 18-question survey to 926 adults who owned a television and at least one other device with a screen. They found that heavy screen time users averaged 17.5 hours of screen-use every day. They also reported that this group’s health condition was worse than light users. Interestingly, researchers also discovered a connection between binge-watching and greater stress. The result is surprising. ___20___ It might have been believed that people are turning to binge-watching to deal with anxiety and stress. However, that’s not the case. It could be the case that people will suffer from greater stress if watching more shows continuously. A. Every new cultural behavior has its own causes. B. Nowadays binge-watching is a common behavior. C. Now, many companies release a whole series at once. D. People are more stressed out if they’re binge-watching. E. Researchers at Arizona State University wanted to figure this out. F. 73 percent of 18-to-29-year-olds binge-watched at least once a week. G. Researchers identified binge-watchers by asking how long they watched television. 第三部分 语言应用 (共两节,满分30分) 第一节 完形填空 (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 came across an image of a distance runner with a caption (说明文字) that told readers to keep going at all costs.

Two weeks later, the last school ____24____ an even better scholarship with full fees. And what did 17-year-old me do? I was still ____25____ to Southern Utah University due to the ____26____ $100 commitment fee. It seems obvious to me now that ____27____ schools, even if it meant admitting I’d “wasted” $100, was a better ____28____ decision. I’m not the only ____29____. People will wear clothes they don’t like because they have paid money for them and stay in unhealthy ____30____ because they’ve been together for so long. That you’ve sunk time, effort, or money into something doesn’t mean you should ____31____ more. Our society loves to emphasize ____32____ to keep trying. But only you know the right path for you.

She was half German shepherd, half collie. I was filled with excitement because it had been my dream to have a lovely and smart puppy to keep me company. As her pink tongue tickled my face with wet licks, it was love at first hug. My family named the puppy Dusty. Although I wanted to lay sole claim to her affections, in a family of seven kids, no one laid permanent claim to the family pet. Dusty was our dog, not my dog. But we soon realized that Dusty was doing her best to give all of us great patience and lots of unconditional love. My baby sister often used Dusty’s warm fur as a nap-time pillow, falling asleep soundly on the cosy rug (毛毯). Like a protective mother, Dusty waited patiently, not moving, until my sister woke. She would gently lick my sister’s rosy cheeks, making her giggle. Dusty doubled as a school crossing guard, too. From Monday to Friday she’d walk us kids two blocks to St. Patrick’s Parochial, looking both ways to check for traffic before allowing us to cross the street. We’d wave goodbye as we entered the door, knowing Dusty would be waiting at the school door until the end of the school day. Of all the contributions Dusty made to our family, one incident stands out far and above all others. Late one night, Dusty rushed to my parents’ bedroom. She barked and barked. When she got no response, Dusty raced upstairs to my bedroom and my brothers’ bedroom and barked again and again. When she failed to fully wake us, she flew back down the steps and returned to my parents’ room. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150个左右;2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Finally, she got Mom’s attention. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The house across the street, where my best friend Maria and her family lived, was on fire. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $ 马鞍山市第二中学2023级高二年级2月练习 英语试题 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.

He makes videos for one reason. “I hope they teach people tolerance, coexistence, and accepting each other’s opinions, values that I myself really value,” he says. “I’m surprised doing such a simple thing can bring so much attention,” he adds, “maybe because no one dares to do that.” 4. What problem did Rathee notice with Indians? A. They were addicted to online videos. B. They had limited access to the Internet. C. They blindly subscribed to travel vlogs. D. They easily fell for misleading information. 5. Why did Rathee make his video about the film? A. To attract attention and followers. B. To emphasize his previous argument. C. To analyze the government’s data. D. To prevent the spread of a false theory. 6. What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refer to? A Criticizing traditional values. B. Getting rid of rigid rules. C. Making fact-checking videos. D. Challenging the authority. 7. Which word could best describe Rathee’s work? A. Enlightening. B. Entertaining. C. Comprehensive. D. Complicated. 【答案】4. D 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过制作事实核查视频来纠正网络谣言,传播宽容、共存等价值观,并因此面临的挑战和取得的巨大影响力。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“People in India weren’t trained on how to use the Internet and blindly trusted whatever they saw on YouTube or WhatsApp,” he says.(他说:“印度人没有接受过如何使用互联网的训练,盲目地相信他们在YouTube或WhatsApp上看到的任何东西。”)”可知,拉希注意到的问题是印度人缺乏网络信息甄别能力,容易轻信误导性信息。选项D“他们轻易相信误导性信息”是此问题的直接概括。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“When a film called The Kerala Story began making waves in May, Rathee made a 23-minute video in which he argued that the film promoted a false theory.(当一部名为《喀拉拉邦故事》的电影在五月引起轰动时,拉希制作了一段23分钟的视频,他在视频中认为这部电影宣传了一种错误理论)”可知,拉希制作这段视频的直接目的,就是为了指出并阻止该电影所宣传的错误理论的传播。故选D。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。划线词“that”位于文章最后一段末尾,根据上文语境““I’m surprised doing such a simple thing can bring so much attention,” he adds, “maybe because no one dares to do that.”(他补充道:“我很惊讶做这样一件简单的事情能引来如此多的关注,也许是因为没有人敢做那件事。”)”,“such a simple thing”指代的就是他作为“YouTube教育者”所从事的核心工作,即前文提到的制作事实核查视频、传播理性价值观。因此“that”指代的就是“制作事实核查视频”这件事本身。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通览全文,拉希的工作——制作事实核查视频,用简单语言拆解复杂问题,教育人们独立思考,传播宽容和理性价值观——的核心在于启发民智、对抗网络虚假信息。其工作具有启发性、教育性。根据文章第一段他自称“YouTube educator(YouTube教育者)”以及第三段他的目标“I hope they teach people tolerance, coexistence, and accepting each other’s opinions, values that I myself really value(我希望它们(视频)能教会人们宽容、共存和接纳彼此的观点,这些是我自己非常珍视的价值观)”可推知其工作本质上是启迪性的。故选A。 C Initial conversations can have a huge impact on how relationships develop over time. People are often stuck in the impressions they think they might have made the minute they finish speaking with someone for the first time: “Did they like me or were they just being polite?” “Were they deep in thought or deeply bored?” To find out whether these worries are necessary, we have conducted nearly 10 years of research. In our studies, participants in the UK talked with someone they had never met before. Afterward, they were asked how much they liked their conversation partner and how much they believed that their conversation partner liked them. This allowed us to compare how much people believed they were liked to how much they were actually liked. Time and time again, we found that people left their conversations with negative feelings about the impression they made. That is, people underestimate (低估) how much their conversation partners like them and enjoy their company — a false belief we call the “liking gap”. This bias (成见) may seem like something that would occur only in initial interactions, but its effects extend far beyond a first impression. Surprisingly, the liking gap can constantly affect a variety of relationships, including interactions with coworkers, long after the initial conversations have taken place. Having a larger liking gap is associated with being less willing to ask workmates for help, less willing to provide workmates with open and honest feedback, and less willing to work on another project together. There are numerous strategies to minimize your biased feelings. One place to start is shifting your focus of attention. Try to direct your attention to your conversation partner, be genuinely curious about them, ask them more questions, and really listen to their answers. The more you zero in on the other person, and the less you’re focused on yourself, the better your conversation will be and the less your mind will turn to all the things you think you didn’t do well. 8. Why did the author carry out nearly 10 years of research? A. To check out a potential bias. B. To explore communication strategies. C. To build harmonious relationships. D. To interpret the role of first impressions. 9. What is one effect of people’s liking gap? A. Increasing conflicts with workmates. B. Underestimation of their capabilities. C. Low willingness to interact with others. D. Fewer opportunities for new projects. 10. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. To give warnings. B. To propose solutions. C. To restate opinions. D. To draw a conclusion. 11. Which might be the best title for the text? A. First Impressions Rely on Initial Conversations B. Liking Gap May Determine Work Performance C. People Probably Like You More Than You Think D. How People Like You Matters Less Than You Assume 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了研究发现人们普遍低估他人对自己的好感,这种偏差会降低人际互动意愿,但可通过多关注对方而非自身,认真倾听来改善。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“People are often stuck in the impressions they think they might have made the minute they finish speaking with someone for the first time: “Did they like me or were they just being polite?” “Were they deep in thought or deeply bored?” (人们常常会陷入自己第一次和别人说话时留下的印象中:“他们是喜欢我还是只是出于礼貌?”“他们是在沉思还是很无聊?”)”和第二段中“To find out whether these worries are necessary, we have conducted nearly 10 years of research. (为了验证这些担忧是否必要,我们进行了近十年的研究。)”可知,作者进行了近十年的研究,是为了验证一种潜在的认知偏差,即人们是否错误地低估了别人对自己的好感。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Having a larger liking gap is associated with being less willing to ask workmates for help, less willing to provide workmates with open and honest feedback, and less willing to work on another project together. (喜欢差距越大,就越不愿意向同事寻求帮助,越不愿意向同事提供公开和诚实的反馈,越不愿意一起完成另一个项目。)”可知,喜欢差距的一个影响是降低人们与他人互动的意愿。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“There are numerous strategies to minimize your biased feelings. One place to start is shifting your focus of attention. Try to direct your attention to your conversation partner, be genuinely curious about them, ask them more questions, and really listen to their answers. (有许多策略可以减少你带有偏见的情绪。可以从转移你的注意力开始。试着把你的注意力转移到你的谈话对象身上,真诚地对他们感到好奇,问他们更多的问题,并认真倾听他们的回答。)”可推知,作者在最后一段的目的是提出解决方案。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第三段的研究结论“Time and time again, we found that people left their conversations with negative feelings about the impression they made. That is, people underestimate (低估) how much their conversation partners like them and enjoy their company — a false belief we call the “liking gap”. (我们一次又一次地发现,人们在结束谈话时对自己留下的印象感到消极。也就是说,人们低估了他们的谈话对象有多喜欢他们,有多喜欢他们的陪伴——这种错误的信念我们称之为“喜欢差距”。)”可知,文章主要介绍研究发现人们普遍低估他人对自己的好感,这种偏差会降低人际互动意愿,并给出解决方法:多关注对方而非自身,认真倾听。因此,C项“人们可能比你想的更喜欢你”最契合文章主旨,适合作为文章标题。故选C项。 D In this digital age, information is increasingly digitized through the wide use of technology. Newspapers, magazines and even textbooks are becoming or expected to be digital soon. However, despite the sharp increase of such technology in daily life. Print media is far from becoming unnecessary. I don’t think that reading in print is a dying mode. Firstly, print offers a super reading experience. The feeling of holding a book in our hands, feeling its weight and turning over its pages, helps us to be immersed (沉浸) in and engaged fully with the material. The act of turning over pages also helps to direct ourselves in the concepts and structure of the text. In contrast, reading through a number of pages on a device is unsatisfying, and we can lose track of how much we have read. In addition, the artificial glow of digital screens tires one’s eyes out, and can even affect one’s sleep. Moreover, physical copies express greater aesthetic (审美的) beauty than digital ones. The designs that beautify book covers and spines make the ideas complete and add beauty to our homes as well. The wrinkles that have accumulated over time leave us with an emotional attachment to the books themselves. Furthermore, the presentation of content in print also allows for greater appreciation of imagery. In contrast to the restrictions of digital screens, the tangible (可触摸的) nature of print allows for clear imagery that is impactful in its presence. Advocates of digital print support the convenience of the medium. Indeed, e-readers provide a convenient solution to storage and transportation. However, this carries its own weaknesses as well. For one, the use of digital media requires the investment in a smart device. For another, taking notes on the printed text is easier. In conclusion, despite the convenience afforded by digital media, physical print still remains a popular mode of reading today. The “less is more” nature of print media remains its strongest selling point today. 12. Why is print reading considered more immersive than digital reading? A. Print allows readers to read faster and more efficiently. B. Print helps readers track their reading and stay engaged. C. Print offers readers greater accessibility and convenience. D. Print protects readers’ eyes and improves their sleep quality. 13. Where does the greater aesthetic beauty of physical copies come from? A. Ease of transportation. B. Vivid images. C. Emotional connection. D. Abundant ideas. 14. What’s the main purpose of the text? A. To introduce two types of reading modes. B. To inform people of a new trend in reading. C. To argue why print reading will not disappear. D. To persuade people to embrace digital reading. 15. How does the author state the opinion? A. By listing examples. B. By explaining a concept. C. By giving a definition. D. By making a comparison. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了尽管数字化趋势日益明显,但印刷媒体并未消亡,它能提供沉浸式的阅读体验、更高的美学价值以及更便捷的笔记记录功能,在日常生活中依然广受欢迎。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The feeling of holding a book in our hands, feeling its weight and turning over its pages, helps us to be immersed (沉浸) in and engaged fully with the material. The act of turning over pages also helps to direct ourselves in the concepts and structure of the text.(握着一本书在手中,感受它的重量,翻动书页,能让我们全身心地沉浸在阅读内容中。翻页的动作还能帮助我们理清文本中的概念和结构)”可知,纸质阅读被认为比电子阅读更具沉浸感是因为纸质阅读有助于读者追踪阅读进度并保持专注。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The designs that beautify book covers and spines make the ideas complete and add beauty to our homes as well. The wrinkles that have accumulated over time leave us with an emotional attachment to the books themselves. Furthermore, the presentation of content in print also allows for greater appreciation of imagery.(美化书封和书脊的设计使书籍的内容更加完整,也为我们的家增添了美感。随着时间的推移积累的褶皱让我们对书籍本身产生了情感上的依恋。此外,印刷形式的内容呈现方式还能让读者更好地欣赏到图像之美)”可知,纸质书籍之所以具有更优美的审美价值其原因是情感上的联结。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章大意以及第一段“In this digital age, information is increasingly digitized through the wide use of technology. Newspapers, magazines and even textbooks are becoming or expected to be digital soon. However, despite the sharp increase of such technology in daily life. print media is far from becoming unnecessary. I don’t think that reading in print is a dying mode.(在这个数字化时代,信息正通过广泛使用技术而日益实现数字化。报纸、杂志甚至教科书都正在成为数字化产品,或者很快就会成为数字化产品。然而,尽管这种技术在日常生活中有了显著的增长,但印刷媒体远未变得不再必要。我认为纸质阅读并非一种即将消亡的模式)”可知,文章开篇就提出核心观点 —— 尽管数字化发展迅速,纸质阅读绝非过时的方式,接着从阅读体验、审美价值、对比电子阅读的优缺点三个方面论证,最后总结纸质阅读如今依然受欢迎。由此可推知,这篇文章的主要目的是论证印刷阅读不会消失的原因。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知,作者在论证过程中,多次将纸质阅读和电子阅读进行对比,比如第二段对比两者的沉浸感和阅读进度追踪,第三段对比审美价值,第四段对比便利性和缺点。由此可知,作者是通过进行对比来表达其观点。故选D项。 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The way we watch television has changed, as many of us no longer follow the old model of television.

Many important figures started making p______ (预测) about Beethoven’s extraordinary future. (根据中英文提示单词拼写) 【答案】predictions##redictions 【解析】 【详解】考查名词。句意:许多重要人物开始对贝多芬非凡的未来作出预测。设空处作宾语,根据首字母和中文可知,表示“预测”用名词prediction;make predictions about是固定短语,意为“对……作出预测”,此处表示复数意义,故用名词复数形式。故填predictions。 37.

(根据首字母单词拼写) 【答案】accusing 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:他的报纸出版有关政治和社会问题的文章,指责政府官员的不诚实。分析句子结构可知,空格处应填非谓语动词,结合句意以及首字母可知,空格处与逻辑主语“articles about politics and social issues”之间的关系为主动,所以应填accusing。故填accusing。 38. When Boya learnt about Zhong Ziqi’s death, he was o________ (受到极大影响) with sorrow. (根据中英文提示单词拼写) 【答案】overcome##vercome##overwhelmed##verwhelmed 【解析】 【详解】考查动词。句意:当伯牙得知钟子期去世的消息时,他陷入了巨大的悲痛之中。根据中英文提示可知,空处应填动词overcome或overwhelm“受到极大影响,被(情绪等)压倒”,与主语he之间为被动关系,应用过去分词形式,与空前was构成一般过去时的被动语态。故填overcome/overwhelmed。 39. News reports on the same events contain different or even c______ (相互矛盾的) information. (根据中英文提示单词拼写) 【答案】contradictory##ontradictory 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词。句意:关于同一事件的新闻报道包含不同甚至相互矛盾的信息。根据首字母c及汉语提示可知,此处使用形容词contradictory,修饰名词information,作前置定语。故填contradictory。 40.

She was half German shepherd, half collie. I was filled with excitement because it had been my dream to have a lovely and smart puppy to keep me company. As her pink tongue tickled my face with wet licks, it was love at first hug. My family named the puppy Dusty. Although I wanted to lay sole claim to her affections, in a family of seven kids, no one laid permanent claim to the family pet. Dusty was our dog, not my dog. But we soon realized that Dusty was doing her best to give all of us great patience and lots of unconditional love. My baby sister often used Dusty’s warm fur as a nap-time pillow, falling asleep soundly on the cosy rug (毛毯). Like a protective mother, Dusty waited patiently, not moving, until my sister woke. She would gently lick my sister’s rosy cheeks, making her giggle. Dusty doubled as a school crossing guard, too. From Monday to Friday she’d walk us kids two blocks to St. Patrick’s Parochial, looking both ways to check for traffic before allowing us to cross the street. We’d wave goodbye as we entered the door, knowing Dusty would be waiting at the school door until the end of the school day. Of all the contributions Dusty made to our family, one incident stands out far and above all others. Late one night, Dusty rushed to my parents’ bedroom. She barked and barked. When she got no response, Dusty raced upstairs to my bedroom and my brothers’ bedroom and barked again and again. When she failed to fully wake us, she flew back down the steps and returned to my parents’ room. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150个左右;2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Finally, she got Mom’s attention. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The house across the street, where my best friend Maria and her family lived, was on fire. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Finally, she got Mom’s attention. “What are you doing, Dusty?” Mom snapped, still halfway in dreamland. But Dusty persisted. Finally my mother gave in. “Okay, what is it?” Dusty whined and rushed out of Mom’s room. Thinking the dog needed to be let out to relieve herself, my mother followed Dusty to the front door. When Mom opened the door to let her out, Dusty tore across the street, not stopping to do as my mother had assumed she would. Then she discovered something unusual — the bright flames and thick smoke. The house across the street, where my best friend Maria and her family lived, was on fire. My mother alerted the fire department immediately. Soon, the firefighters in their trucks roared up the street, put out the blaze, and saved my best friend’s family from harm and their house from total ruin. Later, my mother refused to take credit. “It was Dusty,” she told us. “She saved them, not me.” I put my arms around my dog’s neck and kissed her. “Thank you for saving Maria. You’re the bravest dog I’ve ever known.” Dusty wagged her tail and licked my face. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者小时候教父教母送给他一只名为达斯汀的小狗,达斯汀温柔守护家人、护送孩子们上学,某天深夜不停吠叫试图唤醒家人的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写: ①由第一段首句内容“最后,她引起了妈妈的注意。”可知,第一段可描写妈妈被吵醒后起初不耐烦,达斯汀坚持引导妈妈到前门,妈妈开门后发现达斯汀冲向街对面,随即看到异常的火焰和浓烟。 ②由第二段首句内容“街对面,我最好的朋友玛丽亚和她家人住的房子着火了。”可知,第二段可描写妈妈立即报警,消防员赶来灭火救人,妈妈称是达斯汀救了人,作者拥抱感谢达斯汀,达斯汀开心回应。 2. 续写线索:引起妈妈注意——引导妈妈前门——发现街对面火情——报警求救——消防员灭火救人——归功达斯汀——作者感谢达斯汀 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①冲出去:rush out of/ dash out of ②发现:discover/spot/find ③扑灭:put out/extinguish 情绪类 ①不耐烦:snap/get impatient ②感激:thank/show gratitude 【点睛】[高分句型1] Thinking the dog needed to be let out to relieve herself, my mother followed Dusty to the front door.(运用了现在分词短语作原因状语) [高分句型2] When Mom opened the door to let her out, Dusty tore across the street, not stopping to do as my mother had assumed she would.(运用了when引导的时间状语从句和现在分词短语作伴随状语) 第1页/共1页 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $
