(2006年，Diane Luby Lane创立了Get Lit-Words Ignite项目，以便通过诗歌与年轻人接触)”可知，该项目的目的是通过诗歌与青少年建立联系。故选D项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“Mann Deshi Foundation supports more than 300,000 women and also arranges for their loans and savings through the Mann Deshi Mahila Bank, a micro-enterprise development bank. (Mann Deshi基金会为30多万名妇女提供支持，并通过微型企业发展银行Mann Deshi Mahila银行为她们安排贷款和储蓄)”可知，Mann Deshi 基金会关注女性的发展。故选C项。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段一二句“Maggie Doyne’s foundation, BlinkNow, helps poor children receive education and a roof above their heads in Surkhet, Nepal. Doyne built the Kopila Valley School in Surkhet in 2010 with all her personal savings and the help of the local community. (Maggie Doyne的基金会BlinkNow帮助尼泊尔Surkhet的贫困儿童接受教育，并为他们提供栖身之所。Doyne于2010年在Surkhet用她所有的个人积蓄和当地社区的帮助建造了名为Kopila Valley的学校)”可知，Maggie Doyne为贫困儿童建立了学校。故选A项。 B篇 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要论述的是完美与成为完美并不都是完美的事情，完美是一把双刃剑。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Being perfect is something many of us want and try to achieve. It makes us feel we’re correct and that our hard work has paid off.(完美是我们很多人想要并努力实现的。它让我们觉得我们是正确的，我们的努力得到了回报。)”可知，完美会让我们感觉我们是对的，感觉我们的付出得到了回报，由此可知，完美会让我们有一种满足的感觉。故选A项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“But it’s also the perfect killer. For example, the movie “Black Swan” showcased how perfection can kill us. Working and training and stress hurt our body, mind, and so much more that we can’t do it any more.(但它也是完美的杀手。例如，电影《黑天鹅》展示了完美是如何杀死我们的。工作、训练和压力会伤害我们的身体、心灵，甚至更多，以至于我们不能再这样做了。)”可知，完美也是一个杀手，作者利用电影《黑天鹅》的例子向我们展示追求完美是如何杀死我们的，由此可以推断，作者提及电影《黑天鹅》是为了警示我们完美的危害。故选D项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“The main character of “Black Swan” didn’t know when to stop, whereas the main character of “High Strung” did, or at least didn’t focus so much on the comparison, and instead focused on the competition and the ones she cared about.(《黑天鹅》的主角不知道什么时候该停下来，而《高串》的主角知道，或者至少不太关注比较，而是关注竞争和她关心的人。)”以及最后一段中的“The only way to keep the sword from cutting us is if we know when to stop.”可知，在追求完美的时候，我们应该知道什么时候应该停下来，如果知道什么停下来，我们就可以阻止这把剑伤害自己，由此可知，作者建议我们在追求完美的时候要适时地停下来。故选B项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据首段中的“However, as much as perfection and being perfect is not all a perfect thing.(然而，完美和成为完美并不都是完美的事情。)”，第三段中的“Perfection is a double-edged sword.(完美是一把双刃剑。)”以及第四段中的“But perfection can also have the opposite effect.(但完美也会产生相反的效果。)”和尾段中的“Perfection is something we can’t live without and can’t live with. The only way to keep the sword from cutting us is if we know when to stop. (我们不能没有完美，也不能拥有完美。唯一不让这把剑伤害我们的方法就是知道何时停止。)”可知，作者在论述的过程中，既表达了我们不能不追求完美，但也警示人们，完美是一把双刃剑，我们需要适时停止追求完美的步伐才能防止这把剑伤害自己，由此可推断，作者对完美的态度是客观的。故选C项。 C篇 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. C 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了一个研究发现：与意见不同的人交流的最好的方法并非是书面交流，而是当面交流。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Schroeder’s team found that the participants who watched or listened to the communicator were less dismissive (抵触的) of their claims than when they read that communicator’s same argument.(Schroeder的研究小组发现，观看或聆听沟通者讲话的参与者对沟通者的观点不像阅读沟通者同样的观点时那么不屑一顾)”可知，口头沟通效果更好。故选D。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The idea for her study came from a newspaper article about a politician.(她的研究灵感来自报纸上一篇关于一位政治家的文章)”可知，第三段提到政治家就是为了解释为什么Schroeder开展这项研究，故选C。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词后文“but when he heard it spoken, the politician actually sounded reasonable.(但当他听到这句话时，这位政治家实际上听起来很有道理)”可知，这位政治家看起来好像很白痴，但当他听到这些句子时，政治家说得很有道理，由此可知画线词词义为“愚蠢的”，故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Twitter’s limited text allowance and social media users’ short attention make arguing your point an uphill battle.(推特有限的文字限制和社交媒体注意力的短暂，使得争论你的观点成为一场艰苦的战斗)”可知，社交媒体的局限性使你很难解释你的观点，故选B。 D篇 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. D 35. B 本文为说明文。这篇文章主要讲了城市农业的历史以及它的种植方式和意义。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。由第二段According to Ms. Sullivan, “Urban agriculture has existed since cities have, across the world.”可知Ms. Sullivan认为城市农业和城市有着同样长的历史，选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。由第三段City residents use these foods as supplements to food produced by rural agriculture.可知对于传统农业来说，城市农业是一个补充，选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。由倒数第二段For example, Brooklyn Grange is a farming operation that has two rooftop vegetable farms in New York City.可知Brooklyn Grange充分利用屋顶的空间来种植蔬菜，选D。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。A. The History of Rural Agriculture —— 错误。文章重点并不是农村农业，而是城市农业。B. Urban Farming: Growing Food in the City —— 正确。这个选项全面概括了文章主题：城市里也能种植食物，文章既讲了历史，也讲了纽约的案例。C. Brooklyn Grange: The World’s Largest Farm —— 错误。Brooklyn Grange 只是文中一个例子，不是全文核心。 D. Why Cities Cannot Grow Enough Food —— 错误。虽然文章提到城市空间有限，但主旨是强调城市农业的积极意义，而不是批评其不足。 第二节 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。 【答案】36．C 37．F 38．G 39．B 40．D 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要解释了动物迁移这一行为相关的问题。 36．根据空前“Animal migration is one of nature's great wonders, but how do animals know when it is time to set off on their journey, or where they need to go? Once they've worked out their destination, how do they know how to get there?(动物迁徙是大自然的奇迹，但动物们如何知道什么时候开始它们的行程，或者他们需要去哪里？一旦他们确定了目的地的，它们怎么知道如何到达那里？)”可知，空前提出了一些列与动物迁徙相关的问题，故C项“科学家被这些问题困扰了很多年。”符合，C项中的“these questions”指代空前提出的这几个问题，故选C项。 37．根据空后“Animals like gazelles, wildebeests and zebras migrate in huge herds during dry seasons to look for fresh grass to eat and water to drink.(像瞪羚、角马和斑马等动物在旱季成群结队地迁徙，寻找新鲜的草吃和水喝。)”可知，空后提到了瞪羚、角马和斑马等动物在旱季成群结队地迁徙，寻找新鲜的草吃和水喝，故它们迁徙的目的是为了寻找食物和水源，故F项“动物迁徙的其中一个重要的原因在于寻找食物。”符合，故选F项。 38．根据空后“They're either searching for a mate, looking for somewhere to lay their eggs or finding the best place to raise their young. For example, humpback whales travel to warmer waters each winter to raise their calves.(它们要么是在寻找配偶，也要么在寻找产卵的地方，要么寻找养育幼崽的最佳地点。)”可知，空后提出它们迁徙是为了寻找配偶，或者寻找产卵的地方，或者寻找养育幼崽的最佳地点，故G项“对于一些动物，是繁殖的需求让它们踏上了旅程。”符合，繁殖的需求让一些动物踏上了旅程，它们要么是在寻找配偶，也要么在寻找产卵的地方，要么寻找养育幼崽的最佳地点，故选G项。 39．根据空后“but how do they know when it is time to head off?(但是它们怎么知道什么时候该出发呢？)”可知，空后提出了另外一个问题，什么时候出发，且前文一直在解释动物迁徙的原因，故B项“动物有它们迁徙的理由。”符合，承上启下，总结前文分析的原因，并引出后文迁徙的时间，故选B项。 40．根据空前“Some use the stars and the sun to help them navigate while others rely on landmarks like rivers and mountains to show them where they are.(一些利用星星或太阳来帮助它们导航，而另一些则依靠和河流和山脉等地标来显示它们的位置。)”和空后“Wildebeests are thought to follow the smell of rain.(人们认为牛羚则是靠着闻雨水的味道。)”可知，空前和空后都提出了一些动物如何知道自己该去哪里的方法，故D项“动物也有可能通过嗅觉来到达目的地。”符合，空前提出一些动物通过地标和星星、太阳来帮助自己导航，而空后则具体举例牛羚是靠着闻雨水的味道，故D项引出后文，通过嗅觉来导航，故选D项。 第二部分 语言运用 （共三节, 满分 60 分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分 15 分） 完形填空 41．C 42．B 43．D 44．A 45．B 46．C 47．B 48．D 49．D 50．A 51．A 52．C 53．A 54．B 55．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在大学期间的一次重要发现和经历：学习美国手语（ASL）如何改变了作者的大学生活。 41．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我自己经历了这个搜索过程，发现了一些改变我大学经历的东西：我发现了ASL——美国手语。A. collecting收集；B. planning计划；C. searching搜索；D. rushing猛冲。根据下文“found something(发现了一些东西)”可知，空白处应填表示“搜索”含义的表达，故选C项。 42．考查名词词义辨析。句意：同上。A. progress进步；B. experience经历；C. major专业；D. opinion意见。根据下文“at college(在大学里)”可知，上文说的是上大学的经历，故选B项。 43．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：在我所有的互动中，口语已经足够了。A. official官方的；B. surprising令人吃惊的；C. foreign外国的；D. spoken口语的。根据下文“in all my interactions (在我所有的互动中)”可知，作者学习手语之前，在所有的互动中使用的是口语，故选D项。 44．考查名词词义辨析。句意：这个故事始于我上大学的第一周。A. story故事；B. meeting会议；C. trip旅途；D. task任务。根据下文“my first week at college(我上大学的第一周)”可知，作者说的是自己上大学时候的故事，故选A项。 45．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我观看了ASL俱乐部表演他们翻译的一首歌。A. recorded记录；B. performed表演；C. recited背诵；D. discussed讨论。根据下文“their translation of a song(他们翻译一首歌)”可知，此处指表演他们翻译的一首歌，故选B项。 46．考查名词词义辨析。句意：手势和不用说话就能交流的想法都吸引着我。A. amount金额；B. dream梦想；C. idea想法；D. reason原因。根据下文“communicating without speaking(不说话就交流)”可知，这是一种想法，故选C项。 47．考查动词词义辨析。句意：同上。A. disturbed干扰；B. attracted吸引；C. embarrassed使局促不安；D. supported支持。根据下文“I decided to drop in on one of ASL club’s meetings(我决定去参加ASL俱乐部的一次会议)”可知，作者被吸引了，故选B项。 48．考查动词词义辨析。句意：这种新鲜感让我想要更多。A. showing表现；B. acting表演；C. saying说；D. wanting想。根据下文“more(更多)”以及“I decided to drop in on one of ASL club’s meetings(我决定去参加ASL俱乐部的一次会议)”可知，此处上下文说的是这种新鲜感让作者想要更多，故选D项。 49．考查动词词义辨析。句意：在那之后，我觉得有必要进一步探索，于是决定去参加ASL俱乐部的一次会议。A. explain解释；B. express表达；C. exercise锻炼；D. explore探索。根据下文“I decided to drop in on one of ASL club’s meetings(我决定去参加ASL俱乐部的一次会议)”可知，作者要探索更多，故选D项。 50．考查动词词义辨析。句意：那天我才学会如何用手语表示字母表。A. sign打手语；B. count数；C. print打印；D. write写。根据上文“I decided to drop in on one of ASL club’s meetings(我决定去参加ASL俱乐部的一次会议)”以及下文“the alphabet(字母表)”可知，此处上下文说的是用手语表示字母表，故选A项。 51．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：然而，我并没有因为自己的缓慢进步而气馁，而是感到兴奋。A. slow缓慢的；B. steady稳步的；C. normal正常的；D. obvious明显的。根据上文“I only learned how to sign the alphabet that day(那天我才学会如何用手语表示字母表)”可知，作者进步缓慢，故选A项。 52．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：这位教授是聋子，禁止讲话。A. welcomed受欢迎的；B. repeated反复的；C. prohibited禁止的；D. ignored被忽视的。根据上文“The professor was deaf(这位教授是聋子)”以及下文“I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant(我很快意识到这种沉默并不令人不快)”可知，此处上下文说的是说话被禁止，故选C项。 53．考查副词词义辨析。句意：相反，如果有任何谈话，我们会学到更少的东西。A.

B Being perfect is something many of us want and try to achieve. It makes us feel we’re correct and that our hard work has paid off. However, as much as perfection and being perfect is not all a perfect thing. Perfection is all about being without mistakes and criticism. Wanting or trying to be perfect can make it hard to admit a mistake. Nevertheless, it is important to admit mistakes and work to fix them. Not being able to take criticism and fix mistakes is being proud, not perfection. Perfection is a double-edged sword. In our lives, we want perfection. Perfection holds us responsible; it’s the mistakes and imperfection that keeps pushing us harder and further at what we do. It’s the perfect motivator. But it’s also the perfect killer. For example, the movie “Black Swan” showcased how perfection can kill us. Working and training and stress hurt our body, mind, and so much more that we can’t do it any more. But perfection can also have the opposite effect. The movie “High Strung” showed that perfection doesn’t exist, but practicing and pushing ourselves can bring us great rewards. In “Black Swan,” the main character tried to be perfect but he also compared himself to someone else who he thought was better than him. This added more pressure and self-doubt, which can cause unhealthy ways of achieving perfection. The main character of “Black Swan” didn’t know when to stop, whereas the main character of “High Strung” did, or at least didn’t focus so much on the comparison, and instead focused on the competition and the ones she cared about. Perfection is something we can’t live without and can’t live with. The only way to keep the sword from cutting us is if we know when to stop. Some days are going to be good days and others will be bad. We have to take whatever day it is — perfect or imperfect — and hope that’s enough. 24.What is the common belief about perfection according to Paragraph 1? A. Being perfect makes us feel fulfilled. B. Being perfect is what all of us long for. C. Being perfect is not good at all. D. Being perfect is out of reach. 25. Why does the author mention the character in “Black Swan”? A. To tell us “Black Swan ” is worth seeing. B. To advise us to stop trying hard. C. To show the benefits of perfection. D. To warn us of the harm of perfection. 26. What does the author advise us to do while trying to be perfect? A. Try not to make mistakes. B. Stop before going too far. C. Push ourselves harder. D. Prove our ability to others. 27. What is the attitude of the author to perfection? A. Indifferent. B. Supportive. C. Objective. D. Disapproving. C We’ve all been there: those times you need to argue your point of view to someone who you know disagrees with you. You immediately go to your keyboard and start to type out that 280-character tweet, the Facebook reply, or a paragraphs-long email. Surely the reason, logic, and strong power of your written words will convince whoever it is who disagrees with you to see your point of view. But new research suggests a different idea. That research was conducted by Juliana Schroeder, assistant professor of University of California, Berkeley, and her colleagues. In Schroeder’s study of almost 300 people, participants were asked to watch, listen, and read arguments about subjects they agreed or disagreed with. They were asked to judge the character of the communicator and the quality of the argument. Schroeder’s team found that the participants who watched or listened to the communicator were less dismissive (抵触的) of their claims than when they read that communicator’s same argument. The idea for her study came from a newspaper article about a politician. One of us read a speech that was printed in a newspaper from a politician with whom he strongly disagreed. The next week, he heard the exact same speech playing on a radio station. He was shocked by how different his reaction was toward the politician when he read the speech compared to when he heard it. When he read the statement, the politician seemed idiotic, but when he heard it spoken, the politician actually sounded reasonable. So in the workplace, speaking to someone in person often involves nothing more than walking a few doors down to their office. And that’s exactly what you should do if you need to convince that boss or colleague of why your blueprint for the company or project is the right one. Only as a last way should you try to communicate with someone who you disagree with over social media. Twitter’s limited text allowance and social media users’ short attention make arguing your point an uphill battle. 28. What’s the result of the research? A. Written words are more logical and reasonable. B. People prefer to communicate with key board. C. The participants prefer reading an argument. D. Communication works better orally. 29. Why is the politician mentioned in paragraph 3? A. To introduce the topic for discussion. B. To summarize the previous paragraphs. C. To explain why Schroeder conducted the research. D. To introduce the politician’s speech. 30. What does the underlined word “idiotic” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Logical B. Practical. C. Silly. D. Frightened. 31. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs? A. To persuade your boss, you need to walk to his office and leave a message. B. It’s difficult to fully explain your points due to social media’s limitation. C. Arguing over social media is more convenient than speaking in person. D. Communicating with others over social media is encouraged. D Many people wrongly think that cities don’t have farms and fruits and vegetables are only grown in the country. Believe it or not, there are more urban farms popping up in cities all over the world. Alexandra Sullivan, a food systems researcher in New York, studies urban agriculture. Urban agriculture is another name for farming and gardening in a city environment. Ms. Sullivan studies everything from tiny gardens in empty lots between buildings to bigger fields that have been planted and grown. According to Ms. Sullivan, “Urban agriculture has existed since cities have, across the world.” The number of humans living in urban areas, or cities, is increasing. The amount of people who wanted to garden in urban areas is also rising. Ms. Sullivan says, “In small gardens, on rooftops and indoors, city residents grow fruits, vegetables, grains, and herbs, and raise animals to produce milk, eggs, honey, and meat. City residents use these foods as supplements补充 to food produced by rural agriculture.” Even though some people who live in urban areas grow crops, urban residents still need to rely on food grown in rural areas. This is because a city doesn’t have enough space to grow enough food for everyone living in it. In New York City, urban farmers have come up with many different ways to grow their own produce, even though there isn’t a lot of room. For example, Brooklyn Grange is a farming operation that has two rooftop vegetable farms in New York City. All together, the farms are made up of 2.5 acres of rooftop space. This makes Brooklyn Grange one of the largest rooftop farming operations in the world. Brooklyn Grange grows all kinds of things. The farming company sells its vegetables to local residents and restaurants. And because the farms are on rooftops, they are specially adapted to their urban location. They use available space that is not needed for anything else. As more urban farmers find ways to grow food in cities, urban residents will be better able to get fresher materials for their meals. 32.Which of the following is Ms. Sullivan’s opinion about urban agriculture? A.Urban agriculture has developed recently. B.Urban agriculture takes too much city space. C.Urban agriculture has a history as long as cities. D.Urban agriculture can take the place of rural agriculture. 33.For traditional agriculture, urban agriculture is a(n) ________. A.model B.addition C.competitor D.replacement 34.What can we learn about Brooklyn Grange in New York City from the text? A.It has large farming areas. B.It can only grow single products. C.It produces enough food for citizens. D.It makes use of rooftop space to grow vegetables. 35.What is the best title of this passage? A. The History of Rural Agriculture B. Urban Farming: Growing Food in the City C. Brooklyn Grange: The World’s Largest Farm D. Why Cities Cannot Grow Enough Food 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。 As the seasons are starting to change around the world, the animal kingdom is on the move. Animal migration is one of nature's great wonders, but how do animals know when it is time to set off on their journey, or where they need to go? Once they've worked out their destination, how do they know how to get there? 36 . Migration is a behavioral pattern where animals travel from one habitat to another in search of something. It happens seasonally, and usually involves a return journey. These journeys can be by land, sea or air. 37 . Animals like gazelles, wildebeests and zebras migrate in huge herds during dry seasons to look for fresh grass to eat and water to drink. Animals also migrate because of the weather. Around 50 bird species leave the UK each winter to avoid the cold. 38 . They're either searching for a mate, looking for somewhere to lay their eggs or finding the best place to raise their young. For example, humpback whales travel to warmer waters each winter to raise their calves. 39 , but how do they know when it is time to head off? For those who migrate to look for something to eat, scientists think shortages of food could be a sign that it's time to begin their journey. Others might be able to recognize when winter is coming because they can see that the days are getting shorter. So how do they know where to go? Some use the stars and the sun to help them navigate while others rely on landmarks like rivers and mountains to show them where they are. 40 . Wildebeests are thought to follow the smell of rain. A．Below are some ways they get there B．Animals have their reasons for migrating C．Scientists have been puzzled by these questions for many years D．It's also possible for animals to sniff their way to their destination E．Some birds travel to the UK to escape extreme cold further north F．One of the main reasons behind animal migration is the search for food G．For some animals, it's the need to reproduce that sends them on their journey 第二部分 语言运用 （共三节, 满分 60 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 While high school does not generally encourage students to explore new aspects of life, college sets the stage for that exploration.
