No card ever came with it. Calls to the flower shop were not helpful at all. After some time, I stopped trying to find out the sender’s name and was just pleased with the beautiful flower, in soft pink paper. I couldn’t stop imagining who the giver might be. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender. My mother encouraged these daydreams. She’d ask me if I had been especially kind to someone. Perhaps it was one of my classmates. Perhaps it was the old man who I once helped. As a girl, I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy that I had met. A month before my high school graduation (毕业), my father died. I was so sad that I became completely uninterested in my coming graduation dance, and I didn’t care whether I had a new dress or not. My mother, in her own sadness, would not let me miss any of those things. She wanted her children to feel loved. In fact, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia: lovely, strong and perfect. My mother died ten years after I was married. That was the year the gardenia stopped coming. 59. How did the writer feel when she was imagining who sent the flower? A. Sad. B. Happy. C. Worried. D. Proud. 60. Why did the writer lose interest in her graduation dance? A. Her father died. B. She didn’t have a new dress. C. She was too busy to attend it. D. The gardenia stopped coming. 61. Who did the writer get the gardenias from on her birthdays? A. A boy. B. An old man. C. Her mother. D. Her father. 【答案】59. B 60. A 61. C 【解析】 【导语】本文作者回忆了从11岁起每年生日都会收到匿名白色栀子花的经历，描述了收到花时的快乐猜测。文章最后暗示，这些花象征着母亲希望孩子感受到的爱。 【59题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender.”可知，作者在想象送花人是谁时，感到非常快乐。故选B。 【60题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“A month before my high school graduation, my father died. I was so sad that I became completely uninterested in my coming graduation dance...”可知，作者对毕业舞会失去兴趣的直接原因是父亲的去世。故选A。 【61题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“My mother died ten years after I was married. That was the year the gardenia stopped coming.”可知，栀子花随着母亲的去世而停止寄送。结合第三段母亲希望孩子像栀子花一样可爱、坚强、完美的描述，可以推断出栀子花是母亲送的。故选C。 C Handshaking, a kind of silent language, is important in China. It is a way to show politeness when people meet. This is especially common when meeting for the first time. They also shake hands when saying goodbye. Besides, a handshake can say “thank you”. When someone helps you, shaking hands shows your thanks. What’s more, people shake hands to say “congratulations”. When a friend wins a game or does something well, you can shake hands to show your support and joy. Then who should offer his hand first? As for the question, there are some rules you should follow. Generally, the old, the teacher, the woman, the married or the leader should reach out their hands first. If you have to shake hands with a group of people, you should start from the old or the leader. When the host meets a guest, the host should shake hands first to show his welcome; however, when they say goodbye to each other, the guest is the person who should offer his hand first. While shaking hands, you should pay attention to the time and strength (力度). It is not good to shake hands for too long or too short. A 3-to-5-second simple and light handshake is the best. Also, it’s polite to look at the person’s eyes while shaking hands—this makes the handshake warmer and friendlier. By following these simple rules, you can use handshaking to show your respect and build good relationships with others in China. 62. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. How to shake hands politely. B. Which handshake is the best. C. Who should shake hands first. D. When people should shake hands. 63. Who should offer hands first? A. A leader and a staff → The staff. B. A man and a woman → The woman. C. A student and a teacher → The student. D A young person and an old man → The young person. 64. When should the guest offer a handshake first? A. When introducing himself. B. When having dinner together. C. When arriving at the host’s home. D. When saying goodbye to the host. 65. What is the best handshake according to the passage? A. You should do it quickly. B. You should hold it strongly. C. You should look at the eyes. D. You should make it last long. 【答案】62. D 63. B 64. D 65. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了在中国握手作为一种礼貌和社交礼仪的应用场合、先后顺序、时长力度及注意事项。 【62题详解】 主旨大意题。第一段主要讲述了握手在中国是一种无声语言，是人们见面时表示礼貌的方式，在初次见面、告别、表达感谢、祝贺等多种场景下都会握手。所以第一段主要讲的是人们应该在什么时候握手。故选D。 【63题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Generally, the old, the teacher, the woman, the married or the leader should reach out their hands first.”可知，女性和男性握手时，女性应先伸手。故选B。 【64题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“when they say goodbye to each other, the guest is the person who should offer his hand first.”可知，告别时客人应先伸手。故选D。 【65题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“it’s polite to look at the person’s eyes while shaking hands—this makes the handshake warmer and friendlier.”可知，握手时注视对方眼睛是最佳方式。故选C。 D It is so easy to describe people as being talented, just look at the words to praise a piece of music or great artwork, and you will probably see “talented” or “gifted”. However, is being talented a true sign of success? Talent plays a key role in achieving success fast. Those with natural ability in a certain field can often succeed rapidly with less effort. For example, a person with a natural ear for music may find it easier to learn to play an instrument. Take a look at Mozart. He created his first piece of music at the age of 5. And at the age of 7, he went on his first tours to perform his abilities for the world. People often believe that talent is a must for success. But in almost every example of a big achievement, we can find hard work plays an important part. In the sports field, for example, excellent sportsmen such as Quan Hongchan, James and Sun Yingsha are often praised for their natural abilities. But in fact, they spent much of their lives practicing. Besides working hard, talent can become useful only if the person does something to expand it. If your talent is just playing the guitar, that ability can only get you so far because there are many people who can play the instrument. How will you make yourself different from them? You would do so by finding ways to improve your guitar-playing abilities, like learning new finger tricks. Then you will be more successful than others. Nothing is wrong with having natural abilities. However, getting success needs more than talent. The relationships you create with people and habits you develop also play a role. But working hard is the main factor (因素) as to how far you can go. 66. How does the writer start this text? A. By asking a question. B. By telling a story. C. By giving an example. D. By comparing two words. 67. In the writer’s eyes, why did Mozart succeed rapidly? A. He practiced music hard. B. He liked travelling a lot. C. He learned new finger tricks. D. He was really talented in music. 68. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. Talent is a must for success. B. Hard work is important for success. C. Sportsmen all have natural abilities. D. Practicing is unnecessary for sportsmen. 69. What does the underlined word “expand” mean in Paragraph 4? A. Believe. B. Avoid. C. Develop. D. Forget. 70. What is the best title for the text? A. What Brings Success? B. When Does Talent Help? C. How Can We Find Talent? D. Why Is Success Important? 【答案】66. A 67. D 68. B 69. C 70. A 【解析】 【导语】本文探讨了天赋与成功之间的关系，指出天赋虽有助于快速成功，但努力、拓展天赋以及培养人际关系与习惯等因素更为关键。 【66题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第1段最后1句“However, is being talented a true sign of success?”可知，作者是通过提出一个问题来引出全文讨论的。故选A。 【67题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第2段首句“Talent plays a key role in achieving success fast.”及随后以莫扎特为例的叙述可知，在作者看来，莫扎特迅速成功的主要原因是他拥有音乐天赋。故选D。 【68题详解】 主旨大意题。文章第3段先提及人们常认为天赋是必需的，但随即转折，指出“in almost every example of a big achievement, we can find hard work plays an important part”，并以运动员为例论证。因此，本段主旨是强调努力对成功的重要性。故选B。 【69题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第4段“If your talent is just playing the guitar, that ability can only get you so far... You would do so by finding ways to improve your guitar-playing abilities, like learning new finger tricks.”，为了使自己与众不同，需要提升吉他演奏能力，学习新技巧。可推知，“expand”意为“发展、提升”。故选C。 【70题详解】 最佳标题题。全文围绕“成功需要什么”展开，依次讨论了天赋、努力、拓展天赋以及人际关系和习惯等因素，最终强调努力是主要因素。因此，“什么带来成功？”最能概括全文主旨。故选A。 第二节 阅读表达 (共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，简略回答问题。 I used to be the “last-minute girl”. I’d start my homework at midnight. I’d arrive at my soccer practice out of breath and late. Then, on my 14th birthday, my aunt gave me a smart watch with a note: “Dear Emily, Time is your friend. Learn to get along with it. —Aunt Lisa” I stared at the little unbelievable gift. How could a tiny screen fix years of bad habits? The first week, I totally forgot it. I didn’t use it until the Monday of the second week. On that day, I overslept, missed the school bus, and forgot my science project. Feeling upset, I finally decided to do something. I took out the watch and set up a new schedule (日程表) on it. To my surprise, it gave out a low sound and showed: “8:00 AM tomorrow—Science project due. Pack it tonight!” Wow! It got interesting. Slowly, I began to trust it. The watch broke big tasks (任务) into steps: “Math homework: 3 problems now, 3 after dinner.” It celebrated small wins with a happy face. Strangest of all, it could remind me to sleep when I stayed up late. Days passed. My classmates noticed the change. My best friend Lisa was completely shocked when I arrived early for her birthday party. Even my mom, who used to call me “an unorganized time-user” said, “Keep it up.” But the real test was the Speech Competition. Old Emily would have written the speech the night before. New Emily let the watch plan a two-week practice schedule. On the competition day, as I stood backstage (后台), my hands shook. The watch vibrated (震动) softly and a preset message flashed: “Breathe. You’ve prepared 37 hours for this moment.” I smiled, walked onstage, and spoke about my journey with time. When the host announced my first prize, I looked at my watch and its face showed: “Proud of you!” Some say technology makes us lazy. But for me, that little invention was a mirror showing me I could be hardworking and learn to pay attention. 71. Who gave Emily the smart watch? ________________ 72. When did Emily start to use the watch after she got it? ________________ 73. What was the strangest thing the watch could do in Emily’s eyes? ________________ 74. What did Emily let the watch do before the Speech Competition? ________________ 75. If you have the watch, what will you use it to do? (List one thing.) ________________ 【答案】71. Lisa./Aunt Lisa./Her aunt (Aunt Lisa) gave it to her. 72. On the Monday of the second week./The Monday of the second week. 73. It could remind her to sleep when she stayed up late. 74. She let it plan a two-week practice schedule. 75. I will use it to remind me to review my lessons every day so that I won’t have to cram before exams./I hope it can break down my reading goals into small daily tasks./I hope it can remind me to read for 15 minutes each day... 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了主人公艾米丽曾经是个拖延症患者，在14岁生日时收到姑姑丽莎送的智能手表后，逐渐学会利用它管理时间、分解任务，最终克服拖延习惯，并在演讲比赛中取得成功的故事。 【71题详解】 根据文章第2段“on my 14th birthday, my aunt gave me a smart watch with a note: ‘Dear Emily...—Aunt Lisa.’”可知，手表是艾米丽的姑姑丽莎送给她的。故填Lisa./Aunt Lisa./Her aunt (Aunt Lisa) gave it to her. 【72题详解】 根据文章第3段“I didn’t use it until the Monday of the second week.”可知，艾米丽在收到手表后的第二周的星期一才开始使用它。故填On the Monday of the second week./The Monday of the second week. 【73题详解】 根据文章第4段“Strangest of all, it could remind me to sleep when I stayed up late.”可知，在艾米丽看来，手表最奇特的功能是能在她熬夜时提醒她睡觉。故填It could remind her to sleep when she stayed up late. 【74题详解】 根据文章第6段“New Emily let the watch plan a two-week practice schedule.”可知，在演讲比赛前，艾米丽让手表为她规划了一个为期两周的练习计划。故填She let it plan a two-week practice schedule. 【75题详解】 此题为开放性问题。可结合文章中提到的手表功能，提出一个合理的用途。参考答案I will use it to remind me to review my lessons every day so that I won’t have to cram before exams./I hope it can break down my reading goals into small daily tasks./I hope it can remind me to read for 15 minutes each day... 第四部分 情景交际 (满分10分) 补全对话 (共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 根据下面的对话情景，在空白处填入一个适当的句子，使对话的意思连贯、完整。 (James and Ruby are talking on the mobile phone.)

After some time, I stopped trying to find out the sender’s name and was just pleased with the beautiful flower, in soft pink paper. I couldn’t stop imagining who the giver might be. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender. My mother encouraged these daydreams. She’d ask me if I had been especially kind to someone. Perhaps it was one of my classmates. Perhaps it was the old man who I once helped. As a girl, I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy that I had met. A month before my high school graduation (毕业), my father died. I was so sad that I became completely uninterested in my coming graduation dance, and I didn’t care whether I had a new dress or not. My mother, in her own sadness, would not let me miss any of those things. She wanted her children to feel loved. In fact, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia: lovely, strong and perfect. My mother died ten years after I was married. That was the year the gardenia stopped coming. 59. How did the writer feel when she was imagining who sent the flower? A Sad. B. Happy. C. Worried. D. Proud. 60. Why did the writer lose interest in her graduation dance? A. Her father died. B. She didn’t have a new dress. C. She was too busy to attend it. D. The gardenia stopped coming. 61. Who did the writer get the gardenias from on her birthdays? A. A boy. B. An old man. C. Her mother. D. Her father. C Handshaking, a kind of silent language, is important in China. It is a way to show politeness when people meet. This is especially common when meeting for the first time. They also shake hands when saying goodbye. Besides, a handshake can say “thank you”. When someone helps you, shaking hands shows your thanks. What’s more, people shake hands to say “congratulations”. When a friend wins a game or does something well, you can shake hands to show your support and joy. Then who should offer his hand first? As for the question, there are some rules you should follow. Generally, the old, the teacher, the woman, the married or the leader should reach out their hands first. If you have to shake hands with a group of people, you should start from the old or the leader. When the host meets a guest, the host should shake hands first to show his welcome; however, when they say goodbye to each other, the guest is the person who should offer his hand first. While shaking hands, you should pay attention to the time and strength (力度). It is not good to shake hands for too long or too short. A 3-to-5-second simple and light handshake is the best. Also, it’s polite to look at the person’s eyes while shaking hands—this makes the handshake warmer and friendlier. By following these simple rules, you can use handshaking to show your respect and build good relationships with others in China. 62. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. How to shake hands politely. B. Which handshake is the best. C. Who should shake hands first. D. When people should shake hands. 63. Who should offer hands first? A. A leader and a staff → The staff. B. A man and a woman → The woman. C. A student and a teacher → The student. D. A young person and an old man → The young person. 64. When should the guest offer a handshake first? A. When introducing himself. B. When having dinner together. C When arriving at the host’s home. D. When saying goodbye to the host. 65. What is the best handshake according to the passage? A. You should do it quickly. B. You should hold it strongly. C. You should look at the eyes. D. You should make it last long. D It is so easy to describe people as being talented, just look at the words to praise a piece of music or great artwork, and you will probably see “talented” or “gifted”. However, is being talented a true sign of success? Talent plays a key role in achieving success fast. Those with natural ability in a certain field can often succeed rapidly with less effort. For example, a person with a natural ear for music may find it easier to learn to play an instrument. Take a look at Mozart. He created his first piece of music at the age of 5. And at the age of 7, he went on his first tours to perform his abilities for the world. People often believe that talent is a must for success. But in almost every example of a big achievement, we can find hard work plays an important part. In the sports field, for example, excellent sportsmen such as Quan Hongchan, James and Sun Yingsha are often praised for their natural abilities. But in fact, they spent much of their lives practicing. Besides working hard, talent can become useful only if the person does something to expand it. If your talent is just playing the guitar, that ability can only get you so far because there are many people who can play the instrument. How will you make yourself different from them? You would do so by finding ways to improve your guitar-playing abilities, like learning new finger tricks. Then you will be more successful than others. Nothing is wrong with having natural abilities. However, getting success needs more than talent. The relationships you create with people and habits you develop also play a role. But working hard is the main factor (因素) as to how far you can go. 66. How does the writer start this text? A. By asking a question. B. By telling a story. C. By giving an example. D. By comparing two words. 67. In the writer’s eyes, why did Mozart succeed rapidly? A. He practiced music hard. B. He liked travelling a lot. C. He learned new finger tricks. D. He was really talented in music. 68. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. Talent is a must for success. B. Hard work is important for success. C. Sportsmen all have natural abilities. D. Practicing is unnecessary for sportsmen. 69. What does the underlined word “expand” mean in Paragraph 4? A. Believe. B. Avoid. C. Develop. D. Forget. 70. What is the best title for the text? A. What Brings Success? B. When Does Talent Help? C. How Can We Find Talent? D. Why Is Success Important? 第二节 阅读表达 (共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，简略回答问题。 I used to be the “last-minute girl”. I’d start my homework at midnight. I’d arrive at my soccer practice out of breath and late. Then, on my 14th birthday, my aunt gave me a smart watch with a note: “Dear Emily, Time is your friend. Learn to get along with it. —Aunt Lisa” I stared at the little unbelievable gift. How could a tiny screen fix years of bad habits? The first week, I totally forgot it. I didn’t use it until the Monday of the second week. On that day, I overslept, missed the school bus, and forgot my science project. Feeling upset, I finally decided to do something. I took out the watch and set up a new schedule (日程表) on it. To my surprise, it gave out a low sound and showed: “8:00 AM tomorrow—Science project due. Pack it tonight!” Wow! It got interesting. Slowly, I began to trust it. The watch broke big tasks (任务) into steps: “Math homework: 3 problems now, 3 after dinner.” It celebrated small wins with a happy face. Strangest of all, it could remind me to sleep when I stayed up late. Days passed. My classmates noticed the change. My best friend Lisa was completely shocked when I arrived early for her birthday party. Even my mom, who used to call me “an unorganized time-user” said, “Keep it up.” But the real test was the Speech Competition. Old Emily would have written the speech the night before. New Emily let the watch plan a two-week practice schedule. On the competition day, as I stood backstage (后台), my hands shook. The watch vibrated (震动) softly and a preset message flashed: “Breathe. You’ve prepared 37 hours for this moment.” I smiled, walked onstage, and spoke about my journey with time. When the host announced my first prize, I looked at my watch and its face showed: “Proud of you!” Some say technology makes us lazy. But for me, that little invention was a mirror showing me I could be hardworking and learn to pay attention. 71. Who gave Emily the smart watch? ________________ 72. When did Emily start to use the watch after she got it? ________________ 73. What was the strangest thing the watch could do in Emily’s eyes? ________________ 74.
