That was the day when it took only six hours to break my body and soul. You think I am a very old man — but I am not. One day, my two brothers and I were coming back from the islands where we often 16 going to get more fish than others. All at once, the sky was 17 with dark clouds and in less than a minute we were in a 18 storm. My younger brother fell into the sea. My elder brother cried out “A big whirlpool (漩涡)!” The moment I heard the word I became 19 . With the wind and waves, we were going in the direction of the whirlpool. We were 20 . Nothing could save us. I felt sick, 21 I was falling from a mountain top in a dream. We went nearer and nearer to the 22 of the whirlpool. It may 23 strange, but at that moment, when we were on the edge of the whirlpool, I felt calmer than when we were moving towards it. I began to think how 24 a thing it was to die in such a way, and how 25 the power of nature is. Suddenly, we went over the edge. I thought my life was over. But moment after moment 26 , and I was still safe. The boat was going round in circles at great speed. I saw clearly that there were other objects (物品) in the whirlpool. After a while, I became 27 about the whirlpool itself. I then made three important 28 . The first, the larger the bodies were, the more rapidly they fell; the second, between two objects of equal extent, round objects fell down more rapidly; and the third, between two objects of the same size, objects 29 like a tube fell down more slowly. So I tied myself to a barrel (木桶) to help me 30 . I tried to make my brother understand, but he was 31 frightened and stayed in the boat. I made the right decision. The boat was 32 into the bottom of the whirlpool. Soon after that, the whirlpool became less 33 . The waves soon carried me to an area where the other fishermen were. 34 , a boat 35 me up. When I told them my story, they did not believe it. Now I have told you, and I cannot expect you to believe me any more than the fishermen did. 16．A．quit B．risked C．devote D．adjust 17．A．folded B．lacked C．transformed D．covered 18．A．explosive B．fictional C．severe D．elegant 19．A．annoyed B．absorbed C．frightened D．embarrassed 20．A．hopeless B．grateful C．rude D．disappointed 21．A．even if B．eventually C．as if D．vividly 22．A．edge B．top C．opposite D．aspect 23．A．appear B．deceive C．prove D．remain 24．A．original B．incredible C．sustainable D．physical 25．A．available B．adjustable C．magnificent D．remote 26．A．worked out B．died out C．stand by D．went by 27．A．cautious B．curious C．conscious D．concerned 28．A．strategies B．presentations C．campaigns D．observations 29．A．shaped B．served C．damaged D．displayed 30．A．sink B．dive C．float D．recover 31．A．fortunately B．extremely C．ideally D．occasionally 32．A．turned B．adopted C．pulled D．released 33．A．frequent B．wild C．epic D．bitter 34．A．In the end B．All too often C．Above all D．In particular 35．A．got B．picked C．turned D．set 第二部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2.5分，满分50分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Viator, a trip advisor company, offers a variety of tourism programs near London.

B The first results of a groundbreaking (开创性的) music project working with deaf children in Dundee will be announced (宣布) next week with the aim of rolling it out across Scotland in the future. In a project developed through his ongoing partnership with the National Youth Choir (合唱团) of Scotland (NYCOS), musician and educator Paul Whittaker has been spending time since February with groups of deaf and hearing-impaired (听力受损的) children at three Dundee primary schools — Claypotts, Craigiebarns and Tayview — as well as with pupils from a handful of other schools in the area. “What we wanted to do was find out whether deaf children can sing, and how well they can pick up pitch (高音),” said Mr Whittaker. “What we’re doing on Monday is presenting some of the work that we have been doing.” What gives the project its strength is that Mr Whittaker has been deaf since birth. “Because I’m deaf myself, I don’t like to put any barriers in the way of deaf children,” he said. “What’s important as well is that the children realise I’m the same as them. I can say: ‘Look at me. I’ve got hearing aids (助听器). I can sign’. It plants the idea in a child that if he can do it, I can do it too.” Given time and funding (资金) problems, the project hasn’t achieved everything it set out to achieve. “But what has been lovely has been seeing how all of the pupils, from being quite shy and quiet at the start of the project, has really grown up. Some of them can sing really well. They pick up things quite easily,” said Mr Whittaker. To date, there has been little research done into the connection between deafness, singing and signing. Now, following a smaller pilot project carried out last year in the Highlands with participation from pupils at Stonehaven Academy, the hope is the project can show the benefits of such an approach. It may then be rolled out more widely across Scotland. 41．What makes the music project special? A．It aims to train world-famous musicians. B．It introduces new approaches to improve hearing. C．It teams up with primary schools across Scotland. D．It focuses on supporting students with hearing problems. 42．What part does Whittaker play in the project? A．He is a health educator. B．He is a peacekeeper. C．He is a role model. D．He is a caregiver. 43．In what way is Whittaker happy about the project? A．It has achieved all of its goals. B．It enjoys plentiful funding support. C．It has received international recognition. D．It sees the students’ impressive learning abilities. 44．What is the expectation for the project in the future? A．To cooperate with the government. B．To make it available in more places of Scotland. C．To seek for more funding for better development. D．To figure out the connection between deafness and singing. 45．What is the text mainly about? A．A pioneering project by a deaf musician. B．A large project for unlocking musical talents. C．A national project to teach music to children. D．A unique project studying the impact of music. C Boomerang (回旋镖) children who return to live with their parents after university can be good for families, leading to closer, more supportive relationships and increased contact between the generations, a study has found. The findings contradict research published earlier this year showing that returning adult children trigger a significant decline in their parents’ quality of life and well-being. The young adults taking part in the study were “more positive than might have been expected” about moving back home — the shame is reduced as so many of their peers are in the same position, and they acknowledged the benefits of parents’ financial and emotional support. Daughters were happier than sons, often slipping back easily into teenage patterns of behaviour, the study found. Parents on the whole were more uncertain, expressing concern about the likely duration of the arrangement and how to manage it. But they acknowledged that things were different for graduates today, who leave university with huge debts and fewer job opportunities. The families featured in the study were middle-class and tended to view the achievement of adult independence for their children as a “family project”. Parents accepted that their children required supports as university students and then as graduates returning home, as they tried to find jobs paying enough to enable them to move out and get on the housing ladder. “However,” the study says, “day-to-day tensions about the prospects of achieving different dimensions of independence, which in a few extreme cases came close to conflict, characterised the experience of a majority of parents and a little over half the graduates.” Areas of disagreement included chores, money and social life. While parents were keen to help, they also wanted different relationships from those they had with their own parents, and continuing to support their adult children allowed them to remain close. 46．What is the finding of the previous research? A．The parents’ quality of life became worse than before. B．Boomerang children made their parents even happier than before. C．Boomerang children never did any housework. D．The parents were looking forward to their children’s return. 47．The underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 2 may be best replaced by ______. A．benefit B．defeat C．cause D．allow 48．What is the attitude of the college graduates towards returning home? A．They are ashamed of turning to their parents for help. B．They are proud to be independent from the family. C．They are doubtful about whether they should return. D．They are glad that they could come back. 49．What can be inferred as the reason for the “boomerang children” phenomenon? A．It is harder for the children to secure a satisfying job. B．The parents are willing to provide support to their children. C．The children want to keep in closer touch with their parents. D．There is more house work needed to be done by the children. 50．What is the side effect of the “boomerang children” phenomenon? A．Both parents and children enjoy a more harmonious relationship. B．Neither parents nor children want to do the chores at home. C．There are occasional quarrels between parents and children. D．Not only parents but also children want to be independent eagerly. D In Colombia, an environmental group is leading a project to save the wild areas in the San Lucas Mountains, with the invaluable assistance of local coffee growers. Since 2016, the areas around San Lucas have been in danger because gold miners and coca planters make more money than coffee farmers. To help out, a group called WebConserva has started a project to establish connections between local coffee farmers and a network of buyers across the nation. This plan is designed to not only enhance the market reach for the farmers’ produce but also to significantly increase their earnings. By doing this, WebConserva is creating a way for farmers to keep growing coffee, which in turn serves as a protective boundary around the forests, ensuring the preservation (保护) of the area’s rich biodiversity (生物多样性). At present, 10 families are part of the project, growing coffee on 400 hectares (公顷) of land. WebConserva hopes that eventually, this number will grow to 200 families. If that happens, they could help save 20,000 hectares of forest that hasn’t been touched by humans. The families have promised not to cut down any trees to make more space for their crops or to hunt the animals that live there. In return, they get paid $300 when they sell 125 kilograms of coffee. Arcadio Barajas is a testament (证明) to the project’s impact. His coffee farm sets up a barrier between cattle farms and forests where wild animals live, thus reducing the possibility of conflict between cattle farmers and wild animals. “Cutting down the forest to plant coca and killing wildlife were against my faith, and now I feel that growing coffee lets me be a good guardian of the land,” he said. Amnobis Romero, once a coca grower and miner, has turned a new leaf. “Many families depended on illegal activities to support their children years ago. Now, we feel it a duty to look after this biodiversity and leave it for future generations,” he said. People who care about nature want to make San Lucas a national park to keep it safe. But it’s taking a long time to make this happen. Carlos Valderrama, the person in charge of WebConserva, believes that their project can create a way of farming that will work well for many years to come. He said, “This project helps to keep the forests, all the different kinds of plants and animals, and the environment healthy, while also making life better for the people who grow coffee.” 51．What does the WebConserva project aim to achieve in the San Lucas Mountains? A．To encourage hunting to support local farmers. B．To increase the mining and coca farming industries. C．To link local coffee growers with buyers nationwide. D．To promote cutting down trees for coffee farming space. 52．What is a requirement for coffee growers to earn money from the WebConserva project? A．Stopping cattle farming near forests. B．Preventing wildlife harm and tree cutting. C．Changing to organic coffee within one year. D．Donating 10% of their land to national parks. 53．How does WebConserva protect wild areas in San Lucas? A．By expanding cattle farms. B．By replacing forests with coffee farms. C．By building physical fences around forests. D．By supporting coffee farming as a protection tool. 54．Why does the author mention Arcadio Barajas and Arnobis Romero? A．To explain the government’s slow action. B．To show coffee farming is more profitable than coca. C．To prove all farmers have abandoned illegal activities. D．To illustrate how the project transformed farmers’ attitudes. 55．What can we conclude from the passage? A．Families protecting wildlife will get very rich. B．WebConserva benefits ecosystems and local people’s life. C．Gold mining and coca farming have been replaced rapidly. D．San Lucas will develop into a national park in the near future. 第二部分:写作(共两节，满分35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。 Luke has always been my closest companion these past five years. As you already know, there have been a lot of forest fires during the summer season. Many forests are badly damaged by fire each year. Not far from our shelter, a forest caught fire during this hot summer. We are on July, a heat wave which has been going on for three days. Luke rushed towards the forest where flames send out a fierce heat. There’s no longer any hope at the moment to wait for Luke to come back to the shelter. In fact, I was waiting for the fire brigade(消防队) to announce me his death in the forest. Suddenly, a fireman burst into my office and informed me that my dog Luke succeeded to save four kittens who were trapped by the flames. According to the fireman, Luke seized the kittens, one by one moving them to a safe place. I immediately accompanied the fireman to the forest to pick up the rescued kittens. Once on the scene of the incident, Luke was not there. Then we heard the sound of a dog came from the forest barking. I recognized the sound of my dog Luke. The firemen followed the tracks of the dog until they found him barking loudly by the side of an injured fireman who was lying on the ground and desperately waiting for rescue. Thanks to Luke, four kittens and a fireman were saved. That day, I was very proud of Luke for his two heroic actions. Luke showed much compassion for both animals like him and for a human being who was trying to put out the fire with his colleagues. Truth to tell, my happiness is great and immeasurable. I paid a visit to the fireman in his house accompanied with my lovely Luke. What a memorable scene when the fireman hugged Luke tightly to his chest! “One thousand thanks, Luke, for saving my life,” the fireman said. This true story of love and compassion shows us that pets are loving, caring and compassionate. We should love and protect them. Don’t belittle them. Little animals can make enormous things for humans. 56．What happened near the author’s shelter this summer? (no more than 10 words) 57．What did the author think when Luke rushed towards the burning forest?

That was the day when it took only six hours to break my body and soul. You think I am a very old man — but I am not. One day, my two brothers and I were coming back from the islands where we often 16 going to get more fish than others. All at once, the sky was 17 with dark clouds and in less than a minute we were in a 18 storm. My younger brother fell into the sea. My elder brother cried out “A big whirlpool (漩涡)!” The moment I heard the word I became 19 . With the wind and waves, we were going in the direction of the whirlpool. We were 20 . Nothing could save us. I felt sick, 21 I was falling from a mountain top in a dream. We went nearer and nearer to the 22 of the whirlpool. It may 23 strange, but at that moment, when we were on the edge of the whirlpool, I felt calmer than when we were moving towards it. I began to think how 24 a thing it was to die in such a way, and how 25 the power of nature is. Suddenly, we went over the edge. I thought my life was over. But moment after moment 26 , and I was still safe. The boat was going round in circles at great speed. I saw clearly that there were other objects (物品) in the whirlpool. After a while, I became 27 about the whirlpool itself. I then made three important 28 . The first, the larger the bodies were, the more rapidly they fell; the second, between two objects of equal extent, round objects fell down more rapidly; and the third, between two objects of the same size, objects 29 like a tube fell down more slowly. So I tied myself to a barrel (木桶) to help me 30 . I tried to make my brother understand, but he was 31 frightened and stayed in the boat. I made the right decision. The boat was 32 into the bottom of the whirlpool. Soon after that, the whirlpool became less 33 . The waves soon carried me to an area where the other fishermen were. 34 , a boat 35 me up. When I told them my story, they did not believe it. Now I have told you, and I cannot expect you to believe me any more than the fishermen did. 16．A．quit B．risked C．devote D．adjust 17．A．folded B．lacked C．transformed D．covered 18．A．explosive B．fictional C．severe D．elegant 19．A．annoyed B．absorbed C．frightened D．embarrassed 20．A．hopeless B．grateful C．rude D．disappointed 21．A．even if B．eventually C．as if D．vividly 22．A．edge B．top C．opposite D．aspect 23．A．appear B．deceive C．prove D．remain 24．A．original B．incredible C．sustainable D．physical 25．A．available B．adjustable C．magnificent D．remote 26．A．worked out B．died out C．stand by D．went by 27．A．cautious B．curious C．conscious D．concerned 28．A．strategies B．presentations C．campaigns D．observations 29．A．shaped B．served C．damaged D．displayed 30．A．sink B．dive C．float D．recover 31．A．fortunately B．extremely C．ideally D．occasionally 32．A．turned B．adopted C．pulled D．released 33．A．frequent B．wild C．epic D．bitter 34．A．In the end B．All too often C．Above all D．In particular 35．A．got B．picked C．turned D．set 【答案】 16．B 17．D 18．C 19．C 20．A 21．C 22．A 23．A 24．B 25．C 26．D 27．B 28．D 29．A 30．C 31．B 32．C 33．B 34．A 35．B 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者去岛上捕鱼时遭受风暴，即将被卷入漩涡，但通过作者对漩涡的观察，成功获救的经历。 16．考查动词词义辨析。句意：有一天，我和两个兄弟从岛上回来，我们经常冒险去那里捕比别人更多的鱼。A. quit退出；B. risked冒……的风险；C. devote奉献；D. adjust调整。根据下文“A big whirlpool (漩涡)!”可知，作者他们遇到了大的漩涡，由此可知，去岛上捕鱼是有危险的，他们冒险去那里捕比别人更多的鱼。故选B项。 17．考查动词词义辨析。句意：突然，天空被乌云覆盖，不到一分钟，我们就陷入了一场猛烈的风暴。A. folded折叠；B. lacked缺乏；C. transformed使转换；D. covered覆盖。根据句中“storm”可知，作者他们遇到了风暴，由此可知，天空被乌云覆盖，风暴来了。故选D项。 18．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：突然，天空被乌云覆盖，不到一分钟，我们就陷入了一场猛烈的风暴。A. explosive爆炸的；B. fictional虚构的；C. severe猛烈的，十分严重的；D. elegant优雅的。根据下文“A big whirlpool (漩涡)!”可知，风暴产生了大漩涡，由此可知，风暴十分严重。故选C项。 19．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我一听到这个词就吓坏了。A. annoyed恼怒的；B. absorbed全神贯注的；C. frightened害怕的；D. embarrassed尴尬的。根据上文“A big whirlpool (漩涡)!”可知，风暴产生了大漩涡，由此可知，听到兄弟说大漩涡，作者感到害怕。故选C项。 20．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我们绝望了。A. hopeless绝望的；B. grateful感激的；C. rude粗鲁的；D. disappointed失望的。根据上文“With the wind and waves, we were going in the direction of the whirlpool.”可知，作者他们即将被漩涡吞没，由此可知，这让他们感到绝望。故选A项。 21．考查副词/从属连词词义辨析。句意：我感到想呕吐，仿佛在梦中从山顶坠落。A. even if即使；B. eventually最终；C. as if仿佛；D. vividly生动地。根据上文“With the wind and waves, we were going in the direction of the whirlpool.”可知，作者他们即将被漩涡吞没，由此可知，船在剧烈晃动，这种感觉仿佛在梦中从山顶坠落。故选C项。 22．考查名词词义辨析。句意：我们越来越接近漩涡的边缘。A. edge边缘；B. top顶端；C. opposite对立面；D. aspect方面。根据上文“With the wind and waves, we were going in the direction of the whirlpool.”可知，随着风浪，作者他们正朝漩涡的方向前进，由此可知，他们越来越接近漩涡的边缘。故选A项。 23．考查动词词义辨析。句意：这可能看起来很奇怪，但在那一刻，当我们在漩涡边缘时，我感觉比我们朝它走去时更平静。A. appear看起来；B. deceive误导；C. prove证明；D. remain保留。根据句中“when we were on the edge of the whirlpool, I felt calmer than when we were moving towards it”可知，当作者他们在漩涡边缘时，本应害怕，但作者感觉更平静了，由此可知，这看起来很奇怪。故选A项。 24．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我开始想，以这样的方式死去是多么难以置信，大自然的力量是多么伟大。A. original起初的；B. incredible难以置信的；C. sustainable可持续的；D. physical身体的。根据上文“With the wind and waves, we were going in the direction of the whirlpool.”可知，作者他们即将被卷入漩涡，濒临死亡，以这样的方式死去是难以置信的。故选B项。 25．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我开始想，以这样的方式死去是多么难以置信，大自然的力量是多么伟大。A. available可获得的；B. adjustable可调节的；C. magnificent伟大的，宏伟的；D. remote遥远的。根据上文“With the wind and waves, we were going in the direction of the whirlpool.”可知，作者他们即将被卷入漩涡，濒临死亡，在自然面前，人类是渺小的，由此可知，作者在感叹大自然的力量是多么伟大。故选C项。 26．考查动词短语辨析。句意：但一刻又一刻过去了，我仍然很安全。A. worked out锻炼；B. died out灭绝；C. stand by袖手旁观；D. went by（时间）逝去。根据句中“moment after moment”可知，随着时间逝去，作者仍然很安全。故选D项。 27．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：过了一会儿，我开始对漩涡本身感到好奇。A. cautious谨慎的；B. curious好奇的；C. conscious有意识的；D. concerned担心的。根据下文“The first, the larger the bodies were, the more rapidly they fell”可知，通过观察，作者发现了漩涡的三个特点，由此可知，他开始对漩涡本身感到好奇，开始观察它。故选B项。 28．考查名词词义辨析。句意：然后，我提出了三个重要观察。A. strategies策略；B. presentations展示；C. campaigns战役；D. observations观察。根据下文“The first, the larger the bodies were, the more rapidly they fell”可知，通过观察，作者发现了漩涡的三个特点，由此可知，他提出了三个重要观察。故选D项。 29．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：首先，身体越大，倒下的速度就越快；第二，在两个大小相等的物体之间，圆形物体下落得更快；第三，在两个相同大小的物体之间，管状物体下落得更慢。A. shaped具有……形状的；B. served提供服务的；C. damaged被损坏的；D. displayed显示的。根据句中“like a tube”可知，句中指具有管子形状的物体。故选A项。 30．考查动词词义辨析。句意：于是，我把自己绑在一个木桶上，帮助自己漂浮。A. sink下沉；B. dive潜水；C. float漂浮；D. recover恢复。根据上文“and the third, between two objects of the same size, objects _____ like a tube fell down more slowly”可知，在两个相同大小的物体之间，管状物体下落得更慢，由此可知，作者把自己绑在一个木桶上，是为了帮助自己漂浮。故选C项。 31．考查副词词义辨析。句意：我试图让我兄弟明白，但他非常害怕，待在船上。A. fortunately幸运地；B. extremely非常；C. ideally理想地；D. occasionally偶尔。根据句中“stayed in the boat”可知，作者兄弟非常害怕，失去反应能力，只是待在船上。故选B项。 32．考查动词词义辨析。句意：船被吸入漩涡底部。A. turned转动；B. adopted收养；C. pulled拉，吸引；D. released释放。根据句中“the bottom of the whirlpool”可知，漩涡是有吸力的，船被吸入漩涡底部。故选C项。 33．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：不久之后，漩涡变得不那么狂暴了。A. frequent频繁的；B. wild狂暴的；C. epic宏大的；D. bitter苦的。根据下文“The waves soon carried me to an area where the other fishermen were.”可知，海浪很快把作者带到了其他渔民所在的地区，由此可知，漩涡变得不那么狂暴了，作者他们随着海浪漂浮。故选B项。 34．考查固定短语辨析。句意：最后，一艘船救起了我。A.

In a project developed through his ongoing partnership with the National Youth Choir (合唱团) of Scotland (NYCOS), musician and educator Paul Whittaker has been spending time since February with groups of deaf and hearing-impaired (听力受损的) children at three Dundee primary schools — Claypotts, Craigiebarns and Tayview — as well as with pupils from a handful of other schools in the area. “What we wanted to do was find out whether deaf children can sing, and how well they can pick up pitch (高音),” said Mr Whittaker. “What we’re doing on Monday is presenting some of the work that we have been doing.” What gives the project its strength is that Mr Whittaker has been deaf since birth. “Because I’m deaf myself, I don’t like to put any barriers in the way of deaf children,” he said. “What’s important as well is that the children realise I’m the same as them. I can say: ‘Look at me. I’ve got hearing aids (助听器). I can sign’. It plants the idea in a child that if he can do it, I can do it too.” Given time and funding (资金) problems, the project hasn’t achieved everything it set out to achieve. “But what has been lovely has been seeing how all of the pupils, from being quite shy and quiet at the start of the project, has really grown up. Some of them can sing really well. They pick up things quite easily,” said Mr Whittaker. To date, there has been little research done into the connection between deafness, singing and signing. Now, following a smaller pilot project carried out last year in the Highlands with participation from pupils at Stonehaven Academy, the hope is the project can show the benefits of such an approach. It may then be rolled out more widely across Scotland. 41．What makes the music project special? A．It aims to train world-famous musicians. B．It introduces new approaches to improve hearing. C．It teams up with primary schools across Scotland. D．It focuses on supporting students with hearing problems. 42．What part does Whittaker play in the project? A．He is a health educator. B．He is a peacekeeper. C．He is a role model. D．He is a caregiver. 43．In what way is Whittaker happy about the project? A．It has achieved all of its goals. B．It enjoys plentiful funding support. C．It has received international recognition. D．It sees the students’ impressive learning abilities. 44．What is the expectation for the project in the future? A．To cooperate with the government. B．To make it available in more places of Scotland. C．To seek for more funding for better development. D．To figure out the connection between deafness and singing. 45．What is the text mainly about? A．A pioneering project by a deaf musician. B．A large project for unlocking musical talents. C．A national project to teach music to children. D．A unique project studying the impact of music. 【答案】41．D 42．C 43．D 44．B 45．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了聋人音乐家Paul Whittaker在邓迪开展的一个帮助听障儿童的音乐开创性项目。 41．细节理解题。根据第二段“In a project developed through his ongoing partnership with the National Youth Choir (合唱团) of Scotland (NYCOS), musician and educator Paul Whittaker has been spending time since February with groups of deaf and hearing-impaired (听力受损的) children at three Dundee primary schools — Claypotts, Craigiebarns and Tayview — as well as with pupils from a handful of other schools in the area.(在与苏格兰国家青年合唱团（NYCOS）持续合作开发的一个项目中，音乐家和教育家Paul Whittaker自2月以来一直在与三所邓迪小学（Claypotts、Craigiebarns和Tayview）的聋哑和听力受损儿童群体以及该地区其他几所学校的学生一起度过时光)”可知，这个音乐项目的特别之处在于它专注于支持听力受损的学生。故选D。 42．推理判断题。根据第四段“What gives the project its strength is that Mr Whittaker has been deaf since birth. “Because I’m deaf myself, I don’t like to put any barriers in the way of deaf children,” he said. “What’s important as well is that the children realise I’m the same as them. I can say: ‘Look at me. I’ve got hearing aids (助听器). I can sign’. It plants the idea in a child that if he can do it, I can do it too.”(这个项目的优势在于Whittaker 先生从出生起就失聪了。他说：“因为我自己也聋了，所以我不喜欢给聋哑儿童设置任何障碍。”。“同样重要的是，孩子们意识到我和他们一样。我可以说：‘看看我。我有助听器。我会手语’。它在孩子身上植入了一种想法，即如果他能做到，我也能做到。”)”可知，Whittaker 先生在这个项目中扮演了榜样的角色。故选C。 43．细节理解题。根据第五段““But what has been lovely has been seeing how all of the pupils, from being quite shy and quiet at the start of the project, has really grown up. Some of them can sing really well. They pick up things quite easily,” said Mr Whittaker. (Whittaker先生说：“但令人高兴的是，看到所有的学生都从项目开始时的害羞和安静，到真正长大了。他们中的一些人唱得很好。他们学东西很快。”)”可知，Whittaker先生对这个项目感到高兴的是他看到了学生们令人印象深刻的学习能力。故选D。 44．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Now, following a smaller pilot project carried out last year in the Highlands with participation from pupils at Stonehaven Academy, the hope is the project can show the benefits of such an approach.

(邓迪一项与聋哑儿童合作的开创性音乐项目的首批成果将于下周公布，旨在未来在苏格兰推广)”、第四段“What gives the project its strength is that Mr Whittaker has been deaf since birth.(这个项目的优势在于Whittaker 先生从出生起就失聪了)”以及文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了聋人音乐家Paul Whittaker在邓迪开展的一个帮助听障儿童的音乐开创性项目。故选A。 C Boomerang (回旋镖) children who return to live with their parents after university can be good for families, leading to closer, more supportive relationships and increased contact between the generations, a study has found. The findings contradict research published earlier this year showing that returning adult children trigger a significant decline in their parents’ quality of life and well-being. The young adults taking part in the study were “more positive than might have been expected” about moving back home — the shame is reduced as so many of their peers are in the same position, and they acknowledged the benefits of parents’ financial and emotional support. Daughters were happier than sons, often slipping back easily into teenage patterns of behaviour, the study found. Parents on the whole were more uncertain, expressing concern about the likely duration of the arrangement and how to manage it. But they acknowledged that things were different for graduates today, who leave university with huge debts and fewer job opportunities. The families featured in the study were middle-class and tended to view the achievement of adult independence for their children as a “family project”. Parents accepted that their children required supports as university students and then as graduates returning home, as they tried to find jobs paying enough to enable them to move out and get on the housing ladder. “However,” the study says, “day-to-day tensions about the prospects of achieving different dimensions of independence, which in a few extreme cases came close to conflict, characterised the experience of a majority of parents and a little over half the graduates.” Areas of disagreement included chores, money and social life. While parents were keen to help, they also wanted different relationships from those they had with their own parents, and continuing to support their adult children allowed them to remain close. 46．What is the finding of the previous research? A．The parents’ quality of life became worse than before. B．Boomerang children made their parents even happier than before. C．Boomerang children never did any housework. D．The parents were looking forward to their children’s return. 47．The underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 2 may be best replaced by ______. A．benefit B．defeat C．cause D．allow 48．What is the attitude of the college graduates towards returning home? A．They are ashamed of turning to their parents for help. B．They are proud to be independent from the family. C．They are doubtful about whether they should return. D．They are glad that they could come back. 49．What can be inferred as the reason for the “boomerang children” phenomenon? A．It is harder for the children to secure a satisfying job. B．The parents are willing to provide support to their children. C．The children want to keep in closer touch with their parents. D．There is more house work needed to be done by the children. 50．What is the side effect of the “boomerang children” phenomenon? A．Both parents and children enjoy a more harmonious relationship. B．Neither parents nor children want to do the chores at home. C．There are occasional quarrels between parents and children. D．Not only parents but also children want to be independent eagerly. 【答案】46．A 47．C 48．D 49．A 50．C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“回巢族”现象。研究指出子女大学毕业后，返家与父母同住可能拉近家庭关系，但此前研究认为这会降低父母生活质量。文章分析了毕业生对返家的积极态度、父母的复杂心态，以及返家现象的原因（高债务、就业难）和日常矛盾（家务、金钱等）。 46．细节理解题。根据第二段“The findings contradict research published earlier this year showing that returning adult children trigger a significant decline in their parents’ quality of life and well-being.(这一发现与今年早些时候发表的一项研究结果不一致，早些的研究显示，返乡的成年子女会导致父母的生活质量和幸福感显著恶化)”可知，以往的研究显示，返乡的成年子女会导致父母的生活质量和幸福感比之前更差。故选A。 47．词句猜测题。根据划线词所在的句子“The findings disagree with the research published earlier this year showing that returning adult children trigger a significant worsening in their parents’ quality of life and wellbeing.(这一发现与今年早些时候发表的一项研究不一致，该研究显示，成年子女回国会trigger父母的生活质量和幸福感显著恶化)”可知，通过新旧研究对比，以往的研究表明，返乡的成年子女会导致父母的生活质量和幸福感显著下降。由此可知，划线词trigger与cause“导致，致使”意义一致。故选C。 48．细节理解题。根据第三段“The young adults taking part in the study were “more positive than might have been expected” about moving back home — the shame is reduced as so many of their peers are in the same position, and they acknowledged the benefits of parents’ financial and emotional support.(参与这项研究的年轻人对于搬回家“比预期的更积极”——他们的羞愧感减少了，因为他们的许多朋友都处于同样的处境，而且他们承认父母在经济和情感上的支持是有好处的)”可知，大学毕业生对回家的态度是积极的，很高兴能够回家，故选D。 49．推理判断题。根据第四段“But they acknowledged that things were different for graduates today, who leave university with huge debts and fewer job opportunities.(但他们承认，如今的毕业生情况有所不同，他们毕业时背负着巨额债务，工作机会也更少)”可推知，孩子们很难找到一份满意的工作是“回巢族”现象的原因。故选A。 50．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段““However,” the study says,  “day-to-day tensions about the prospects of achieving different  dimensions of independence, which in a few extreme cases came close to  conflict, characterised the experience of a majority of parents and a  little over half the graduates.”(“然而，”该研究称，“实现不同层面独立前景的日常紧张关系，在一些极端情况下接近冲突，是大多数父母和略高于一半的毕业生的经历。”)” 及第最后一段“Areas of disagreement included chores, money and social life.(分歧领域包括家务、金钱和社交生活)”可知，在少数极端情况下，这种紧张情绪接近冲突。由此可知，“回巢族”现象的副作用是在少数情况下，紧张情绪会导致父母和孩子之间偶尔发生争吵。故选D。 D In Colombia, an environmental group is leading a project to save the wild areas in the San Lucas Mountains, with the invaluable assistance of local coffee growers. Since 2016, the areas around San Lucas have been in danger because gold miners and coca planters make more money than coffee farmers. To help out, a group called WebConserva has started a project to establish connections between local coffee farmers and a network of buyers across the nation. This plan is designed to not only enhance the market reach for the farmers’ produce but also to significantly increase their earnings. By doing this, WebConserva is creating a way for farmers to keep growing coffee, which in turn serves as a protective boundary around the forests, ensuring the preservation (保护) of the area’s rich biodiversity (生物多样性). At present, 10 families are part of the project, growing coffee on 400 hectares (公顷) of land. WebConserva hopes that eventually, this number will grow to 200 families. If that happens, they could help save 20,000 hectares of forest that hasn’t been touched by humans. The families have promised not to cut down any trees to make more space for their crops or to hunt the animals that live there. In return, they get paid $300 when they sell 125 kilograms of coffee. Arcadio Barajas is a testament (证明) to the project’s impact. His coffee farm sets up a barrier between cattle farms and forests where wild animals live, thus reducing the possibility of conflict between cattle farmers and wild animals. “Cutting down the forest to plant coca and killing wildlife were against my faith, and now I feel that growing coffee lets me be a good guardian of the land,” he said. Amnobis Romero, once a coca grower and miner, has turned a new leaf. “Many families depended on illegal activities to support their children years ago. Now, we feel it a duty to look after this biodiversity and leave it for future generations,” he said. People who care about nature want to make San Lucas a national park to keep it safe. But it’s taking a long time to make this happen. Carlos Valderrama, the person in charge of WebConserva, believes that their project can create a way of farming that will work well for many years to come. He said, “This project helps to keep the forests, all the different kinds of plants and animals, and the environment healthy, while also making life better for the people who grow coffee.” 51．What does the WebConserva project aim to achieve in the San Lucas Mountains? A．To encourage hunting to support local farmers. B．To increase the mining and coca farming industries. C．To link local coffee growers with buyers nationwide. D．To promote cutting down trees for coffee farming space. 52．What is a requirement for coffee growers to earn money from the WebConserva project? A．Stopping cattle farming near forests. B．Preventing wildlife harm and tree cutting. C．Changing to organic coffee within one year. D．Donating 10% of their land to national parks. 53．How does WebConserva protect wild areas in San Lucas? A．By expanding cattle farms. B．By replacing forests with coffee farms. C．By building physical fences around forests. D．By supporting coffee farming as a protection tool. 54．Why does the author mention Arcadio Barajas and Arnobis Romero? A．To explain the government’s slow action. B．To show coffee farming is more profitable than coca. C．To prove all farmers have abandoned illegal activities. D．To illustrate how the project transformed farmers’ attitudes. 55．What can we conclude from the passage? A．Families protecting wildlife will get very rich. B．WebConserva benefits ecosystems and local people’s life. C．Gold mining and coca farming have been replaced rapidly. D．San Lucas will develop into a national park in the near future. 【答案】51．C 52．B 53．D 54．D 55．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。在哥伦比亚，WebConserva组织助咖啡农对接全国买家，既增其收入，又护圣卢卡斯山区野生区域及生物多样性。 51．细节理解题。根据第一段“To help out, a group called WebConserva has started a project to establish connections between local coffee farmers and a network of buyers across the nation.(为了提供帮助，一个名为“WebConserva”的组织启动了一个项目，旨在将当地咖啡种植户与全国的买家网络建立联系)”可知，WebConserva项目在圣卢卡斯山脉旨在将当地的咖啡种植户与全国的买家联系起来。故选C。 52．细节理解题。根据第二段“The families have promised not to cut down any trees to make more space for their crops or to hunt the animals that live there.(这些家庭承诺不会砍伐任何树木来为他们的农作物腾出更多空间，也不会捕杀生活在那里的动物)”可知，咖啡种植者要通过WebConserva项目获得收益，需要避免对野生动物造成伤害以及禁止砍伐树木。故选B。 53．细节理解题。根据第一段“By doing this, WebConserva is creating a way for farmers to keep growing coffee, which in turn serves as a protective boundary around the forests, ensuring the preservation (保护) of the area’s rich biodiversity (生物多样性).(通过这样做，网络保护组织正在为农民创造一种持续种植咖啡的方式，从而形成一道保护屏障，确保该地区丰富的生物多样性得以保护)”可知，WebConserva通过支持咖啡种植作为一项保护手段保护圣卢卡斯地区的野生动植物。故选D。 54．推理判断题。根据倒数第三段““Cutting down the forest to plant coca and killing wildlife were against my faith, and now I feel that growing coffee lets me be a good guardian of the land,” he said.(“砍伐森林来种植古柯并捕杀野生动物违背了我的信仰，而现在我觉得种植咖啡让我能够很好地守护这片土地。”他说。)”以及倒数第二段“Amnobis Romero, once a coca grower and miner, has turned a new leaf. “Many families depended on illegal activities to support their children years ago. Now, we feel it a duty to look after this biodiversity and leave it for future generations,” he said.(阿莫尼比斯·罗梅罗曾是古柯种植者和矿工，如今已改过自新。他说：“多年前，许多家庭依靠非法活动来供养孩子。现在，我们觉得有责任保护这种生物多样性，并将其留给子孙后代。”)”可知，作者提及阿卡迪奥·巴雷哈斯和阿诺比斯·罗梅罗是为了以此来说明该项目如何改变了农民的态度。故选D。 55．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Carlos Valderrama, the person in charge of WebConserva, believes that their project can create a way of farming that will work well for many years to come. He said, “This project helps to keep the forests, all the different kinds of plants and animals, and the environment healthy, while also making life better for the people who grow coffee.”(负责“网络保护”项目的卡洛斯·瓦尔德拉马认为，他们的项目能够开创一种可持续的农业模式，这种模式在未来数年都将行之有效。他说：“这个项目有助于保护森林、各种各样的植物和动物以及环境，同时也能让种植咖啡的人们的生活更加美好)”可知，WebConserva有益于生态系统和当地人民的生活。故选B。 第二部分:写作(共两节，满分35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。 Luke has always been my closest companion these past five years. As you already know, there have been a lot of forest fires during the summer season. Many forests are badly damaged by fire each year. Not far from our shelter, a forest caught fire during this hot summer. We are on July, a heat wave which has been going on for three days. Luke rushed towards the forest where flames send out a fierce heat. There’s no longer any hope at the moment to wait for Luke to come back to the shelter. In fact, I was waiting for the fire brigade(消防队) to announce me his death in the forest. Suddenly, a fireman burst into my office and informed me that my dog Luke succeeded to save four kittens who were trapped by the flames. According to the fireman, Luke seized the kittens, one by one moving them to a safe place. I immediately accompanied the fireman to the forest to pick up the rescued kittens. Once on the scene of the incident, Luke was not there. Then we heard the sound of a dog came from the forest barking. I recognized the sound of my dog Luke. The firemen followed the tracks of the dog until they found him barking loudly by the side of an injured fireman who was lying on the ground and desperately waiting for rescue. Thanks to Luke, four kittens and a fireman were saved. That day, I was very proud of Luke for his two heroic actions. Luke showed much compassion for both animals like him and for a human being who was trying to put out the fire with his colleagues. Truth to tell, my happiness is great and immeasurable. I paid a visit to the fireman in his house accompanied with my lovely Luke. What a memorable scene when the fireman hugged Luke tightly to his chest! “One thousand thanks, Luke, for saving my life,” the fireman said. This true story of love and compassion shows us that pets are loving, caring and compassionate. We should love and protect them. Don’t belittle them. Little animals can make enormous things for humans. 56．What happened near the author’s shelter this summer? (no more than 10 words) 57．What did the author think when Luke rushed towards the burning forest? (no more than 15 words) 58．Why was Luke heard barking loudly in the forest after picking up the rescued kittens?(no more than 15 words) 59．What does the underlined “belittle” mean?(no more than 5 words) 60．How can you describe Luke? Please give your reasons. (no more than 20 words) 【答案】56．A forest caught fire. 57．She thought Luke would have died. /There’s no longer any hope to wait for Luke to come back to the shelter. 58．Because he was trying to ask for help to save an injured fireman. 59．Regard as small or unimportant. /Minimize. /Denigrate. /Disparage. / Look down upon. 60．It is helpful. It can help to save people and little animals. /It is sympathetic. It can help people in danger and ask for help. 【导语】本文为一篇记叙文，记叙了小狗Luke在森林大火中帮助营救的故事。 56．考查细节理解。根据文章第一段“Not far from our shelter, a forest caught fire during this hot summer.(在这个炎热的夏天，离我们的居所不远的地方，一片森林着火了)”可知，在作者居所旁边，发生了森林大火。故填A forest caught fire. 57．考查细节理解。根据文章第二段“There’s no longer any hope at the moment to wait for Luke to come back to the shelter. In fact, I was waiting for the fire brigade(消防队) to announce me his death in the forest.(现在已经没有希望等卢克回到住所了。事实上，我一直在等消防队通知我他在森林里死了)”可知，当Luck冲进着火的森林时，作者认为他已经死了，他没有希望回到住所了。故填She thought Luke would have died. /There’s no longer any hope to wait for Luke to come back to the shelter. 58．考查细节理解。根据文章第三段“The firemen followed the tracks of the dog until they found him barking loudly by the side of an injured fireman who was lying on the ground and desperately waiting for rescue.(消防队员循着狗的踪迹，直到他们发现他在一名受伤的消防员旁边大声吠叫，那名消防员躺在地上，绝望地等待救援)”可知，Luck在救了小猫以后又大叫是因为他试图寻求帮助来救一个受伤的消防员。故填Because he was trying to ask for help to save an injured fireman. 59．考查词义猜测。根据划线词前文“This true story of love and compassion shows us that pets are loving, caring and compassionate. We should love and protect them.(这个关于爱和同情的真实故事告诉我们，宠物是有爱心，体贴的和有同情心的。我们应该爱护和保护他们)”及后文“Little animals can make enormous things for humans.(小动物可以为人类创造巨大的东西)”可推知，小动物是有爱心的，体贴的和有同情心的，且能为人类做许多事，所以我们不应该认为它们是渺小的，无用的，诋毁，贬低，瞧不起它们。划线词意思为：认为它们是渺小的，无用的，诋毁，贬低，瞧不起它们。故填Regard as small or unimportant. /Minimize. /Denigrate. /Disparage. / Look down upon. 60．考查推理判断。根据倒数第三段“Thanks to Luke, four kittens and a fireman were saved. That day, I was very proud of Luke for his two heroic actions. Luke showed much compassion for both animals like him and for a human being who was trying to put out the fire with his colleagues.(多亏了卢克，四只小猫和一名消防员得救了。那天，我为卢克的两个英雄行为感到骄傲。卢克对像他这样的动物和一个试图和他的同事一起灭火的人都表现出了极大的同情)”可知，Luke是有帮助的，它可以帮助拯救人和小动物；它也是有同情心的，可以帮助处于危险中的人并寻求帮助。故填It is helpful. It can help to save people and little animals. /It is sympathetic. It can help people in danger and ask for help. 第二节：书面表达（满分25分） 61．假定你是某国际学校的学生会主席李津，你校将举办以“践行低碳生活，共创美好家园”为主题的环保宣传活动，请你代表学生会给全校学生写一封英文倡议书，内容包括： （1）全球变暖的影响；（2）践行低碳生活的方式；（3）表达期待。 注意：（1）词数不少于100，开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数； （2）可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 参考词汇：践行低碳生活，共创美好家园Practice Low-Carbon Living, Build a Better Home 减少 reduce     参加 participate in Dear fellow students, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Students’ Union 【答案】Dear fellow students, As the president of the Students’ Union, I am writing to call on everyone to join in our environmental campaign “Practice Low-Carbon Living, Build a Better Home.” Global warming has led to severe consequences, including extreme weather, rising sea levels, and loss of biodiversity.
