解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Can you imagine...did know the basics.”可知，当妈妈告诉作者要去美国时，她想到自己的英语不好。所以她担心语言是最大的问题。故选B。 3．答案　D 解析　细节理解题。根据第五段中的“I found out that...uses the IB system.”可知，新加坡的教育体系与美国不同，故选D。 4．答案　A 解析　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“And a piece of advice...roll with it.”可知，对于那些要到世界各地的人，作者有一条忠告：随遇而安总是最好的。因此可以推断作者的态度还是很积极乐观的。故选A。 B 5．答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The British Isles is a geographical term...inaccurately call England.(不列颠群岛是一个地理术语。它不是任何国家的名字。现在它是由两个国家组成的，其中较大的一个我们经常不准确地称为英格兰)”可知，不列颠群岛由两个国家组成。故选B。 6．答案　D 解析　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The full official name is...Britain for that.(正式的全称是大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国，但人们因此称它为不列颠或大不列颠)”可知，英国的正式全称是大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国。故选D。 7．答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据最后一段前两句可知，人们仍然倾向于称英国为英格兰的原因主要有：英格兰是面积最大、人口最多的国家；英格兰在各个方面都是最强大、最具影响力的国家；人们出于习惯通常称英国为英格兰。不包括C项，故选C。 8．答案　D 解析　主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了England和English的区别。故选D。 C 语篇解读　英国普通教育证书高级水平考试相当于中国的高考。可是越来越多的考生考前就无条件地获得了大学录取证书。 9．答案　D 解析　细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“A student has an unconditional offer even before he or she takes the final Year 13 exams.”可知，有些学生可能在13年级最后的考试前就被录取了，故选D。 10．解析　细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Birmingham University...they make Birmingham their top choice.”可知，只要考生证明在校成绩优异且第一志愿填报伯明翰大学，就可以被伯明翰大学录取。 11．答案　A 解析　推理判断题。根据第三段“The Times Higher Education has criticized the practice of giving unconditional offers based on the grounds of fairness...students coming from rich families.”可知，The Times Higher Education 严厉批评大学招生以公正为幌子，以经济为目的，让部分有钱人受益的做法有失教育的公平性，A项“教育系统的公平性正在丧失”，符合题意。 12．答案　B 解析　推理判断题。根据第四段的“For most students，they spend much time...a year with loans.”可知，英国普通教育证书高级水平考试很难，学生得在最佳年龄阶段，顶着压力并且承担昂贵的费用才可能获取该考试的证书，故B项符合题意。 二.七选五 语篇解读　其实没必要把学校看作是监狱，让你觉得无聊、没有自由。这里有一些方法可以让你感到学习更容易、生活更有趣。 1．答案　C 解析　根据前两句可知，作者建议可以参加一些体育活动并列举了其中的几项，所以此处指“你可以选择参加一个”。C项内容承接上文。 2．答案　A 解析　根据后面的“One of the most stressful parts of school can be making sure you have everything you’re supposed to have.”可知，作者建议要对学习需要的物品做到井井有条，有组织。故选A。 3．答案　F 解析　根据前面的“The less you have to worry about these little things，the more you’ll be able to focus and enjoy school.”可知，只有做到把学习需要的物品都准备好，才能更好地集中精力学习。F项“为上课做好准备，一切都会轻松起来”承接上文。 4．答案　E 解析　根据前面的“So even if you’re feeling frustrated or bored in class，you should be nice to your teachers.”可知，因此即使你在课堂上感到沮丧或无聊，你也应该对老师好。故E项“因此他们可能也会对你很友好”符合文意。 5．答案　G 解析　根据前后的句子“Ask for help if you are having trouble with homework...Ask for help...Ask your teacher...”可知，作者建议有问题时要学会寻求帮助，所以G项“如果你在学校苦苦挣扎，不要试图独自承担一切”承上启下。 三.完形填空 语篇解读　本文作者介绍了自己去国外做交换生的经历。作者体会到那些宝贵的经历对自己的成长是非常重要的，因为自己因此增加了智慧以及战胜挑战的信心。 1．答案　B 解析　根据本空后的“in an apartment with no elevators，no dishwashers”可知，“我”住(live)在一个没有电梯、没有洗碗机的公寓里，故B项正确。 2．答案　D 解析　由上文可知，“我”住在一所公寓里，故此处为“我”所住的公寓里没有电梯、没有洗碗机，只有一台供300个家庭(family)共同使用的洗衣机。其他选项均不符合语境。故D项正确。 3．答案　D 解析　根据本空后的“the rainy winter days there seemed endless”可知，此处强调当时条件的恶劣。故句意为：地板砖总是冰冷的(cold)，故D项正确。 4．答案　C 解析　上文提到300个家庭共用一台洗衣机，所以“我”学会(learn)用手洗衣服，故C项正确。 5．答案　B 解析　根据本空后的“water was so costly，I trained myself to...”可知，前后是因果关系，此处是说“因为(since)这里的水费很高”，故B项正确。 6．答案　A 解析　根据文章情境可知，此处是说因为水费很高，所以“我”训练自己在五分钟之内洗(wash)完自己的齐腰长发，故A项正确。 7．答案　A 解析　根据本空前的“At that time there were no cell phones and the Internet didn’t exist.”可知，当时那里没有电话也没有网络，所以六个月以来“我”没有和在美国的家人和朋友取得任何联系(contact)，故A项正确。 8．答案　B 解析　根据本空前的“I had no relatives there”可知，在那里没有亲戚，所以“我”需要(need)面对这样一个事实，故B项正确。 9．答案　B 解析　根据本空后的“to adapt and create a life...”可知，此处是说适应及创造生活的能力(ability)，故B项正确。 10．答案　A 解析　根据文章情境可知，此处是说为“我自己”(myself)创造生活，故A项正确。 11．答案　D 解析　根据本空所在句可知，17岁的年纪对朋友的渴望是强烈的(strong)，故D项正确。 12．答案　A 解析　根据本空后的“in a foreign language”可知，住在国外并且掌握流利的外语需要毅力和决心。fluency意为“流利，流畅”，故A项正确。 13．答案　B 解析　根据文章情境可知，此处是说在这条路上“我”犯了很多错误，故B项正确。 14．答案　D 解析　根据上文内容可知“我”在国外的生活经历了很多不易，此处是说现在“我”已经把那段艰难的(hard)记忆转变成了荣誉勋章，故D项正确。 15．答案　B 解析　根据本空后的“that I can surpass future challenges”可知，此处是说那些宝贵的经历可以给我战胜挑战的信心(confidence)，故B项正确。 四.语法填空 语篇解读　本文说明了网上购物的优势和劣势，并指出我们应该制定出相关的法律来规范网上购物，只有这样我们才能更好地享受网上购物带来的乐趣与方便，也不用担心受骗。 1．答案　who/that 解析　考查定语从句。 has not experienced online shopping是一个定语从句，修饰先行词a person，关系词在从句中作主语，指人，所以填who/that。 2．答案　is welcomed 解析　考查动词的时态和语态。Online shopping与welcome之间是被动关系，用被动语态，表示主语现在的状态，用一般现在时，故用一般现在时的被动语态，所以填is welcomed。 3．答案　Compared 解析　考查非谓语动词。compare与其逻辑主语they之间是被动关系，用过去分词作状语，所以填Compared。 4．答案　disadvantages 解析　考查名词的用法。disadvantage是可数名词，且被some修饰，所以用复数形式，故填disadvantages。 5．答案　reliable 解析　考查词性转换。and连接并列结构，trustworthy是形容词，所以这里也要用形容词，动词rely的形容词形式是reliable，故填reliable。 6．答案　the 解析　考查冠词的用法。此处特指讲价的乐趣，所以填the。 7．答案　It 解析　考查形式主语。后面的that从句是真正的主语，句首需要一个形式主语，所以填It。 8．答案　truly 解析　考查词性转换。此处是副词修饰形容词urgent，所以填truly。 9．答案　convenience 解析　考查词性转换。空格处作enjoy的宾语，用名词，故填convenience。 10．答案　being cheated 解析　考查非谓语动词。主语we与cheat之间是被动关系，表示“不担心被欺骗”，用被动语态，且介词of之后需要使用v.­ing形式，所以填being cheated。

the quiet country life over the noisy city life. The next move was more of a surprise for me.I was having a good time with my friends at school.But all of a sudden，my mom told me that we were going to move to the United States.Can you imagine how I must have felt? My English wasn’t that good，though I did know the basics. The day I arrived in the US was a snowy day.For a girl who grew up in Shanghai and hadn’t seen real thick snow on the ground，it was a big thing.Compared with my school in China，there were a lot more creative thinking questions，which I was better at anyway. Time flew by and it had been almost four years since I moved.Then again，I was told we were going to move to Singapore. As I’m writing this article，I am still new here and have been going to school for about two and a half months.I found out that the education here is quite special.Different from AP system in the US，the Singapore CIS uses the IB system. This switch drowned me in constant stress.I was confused about the new curriculum，and I knew it would take me a long time to adapt.But what I’ve gotten out of my experience over three countries is that no matter where you are studying，you are always learning.And a piece of advice to people who are going to move around the globe：It’s always best to just roll with it. 1．What did the writer think of life in the countryside? A．It wasn’t as interesting as she expected. B．It was no better than city life. C．She wished she had moved to the countryside earlier. D．She loved to live in the countryside. 2．What did the writer worry about most before moving to the US? A．It would be difficult to make new friends. B．Language would be a big problem for her. C．She wouldn’t get used to the weather there. D．She wouldn’t like the schools there. 3．What does she say about her school life in Singapore? A．Creative thinking is more common. B．Students are asked to do many projects together. C．Students have more freedom to choose classes than in the US. D．It is different from the US school system. 4．What is the writer’s attitude towards her worldwide schooling? A．Positive. B．Negative. C．Critical. D．Doubtful. B The words “England” and “English” are perhaps the two most misused words in the English language.The British themselves often say England and English when they really mean Britain and British. What’s the difference，you may ask.To understand the question we have to know something about the history of the country and its people. We all know that Britain is an island country separated from the European continent by the English Channel.Actually there are two main islands.The larger one is called Britain，or Great Britain，and the smaller one is called Ireland，and these two，together with many small islands make up what is called the British Isles. The British Isles is a geographical term.It is not the name of any country.At present it is made up of two countries，the larger of which is the one we very often inaccurately call England.The full official name is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland，but people call it Britain or Great Britain for that.It consists of England，Scotland，Wales and a small part of Ireland—the northeastern part. People still tend to call Britain England not only because England is the largest in area and the most populous but mostly because England is the strongest and also the most influential country in every respect before it absorbed the other three countries(The whole of Ireland was a part of the United Kingdom at one time)．Call it national chauvinism(沙文主义) if you like，but people in England call Britain England out of habit rather than conscious sense of superiority，though it annoys the Welsh and especially the Scots who are proud of their separate national tradition. 5．The British Isles is made up of . A．one country B．two countries C．two and a half countries D．three countries 6．The full official name of Britain is . A．Great Britain B．England C．United Kingdom D．the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland 7．People call Britain England because of all of the following EXCEPT that . A．England is the largest in area and has the largest population B．people in England do so out of habit C．England is the nearest to the European continent D．England is the strongest and also the most influential in every respect 8．What’s the main idea of the passage? A．The formation of the UK. B．The chauvinism of the English. C．The location of the British Isles. D．The difference between “English” and “British”． C With more and more students being given unconditional offers (无条件入学许可) before they take their exams，have universities made A levels useless？A student has an unconditional offer even before he or she takes the final Year 13 exams. Based on a student’s Year 12 grades and his or her predicted results (预测成绩)，a place at university has been given to him or her. An education writer Laura McInerney discovered that earlier this year a survey by the University and College Union found one in ten staff said their university was making unconditional offers based on predicted grades alone.Birmingham University，part of the Russell Group，has built a whole unconditional offer plan，saying that applicants(申请人) with great academic performance in their schooling can get an offer，regardless of their final results，just so long as they make Birmingham their top choice.In 2014，Nottingham University made 176 unconditional offers to applicants with predicted three or more A grades.At least eight students started their degrees without achieving any As.Several achieved Ds or Es in at least one subject. The Times Higher Education has criticized the practice of giving unconditional offers based on the grounds of fairness.It has found that the practice is becoming more popular，year on year whilst the offers are largely given to the same people—students coming from rich families. But for the rest of us，how have A levels affected our preparation levels？For most students，they spend much time in preparing for A levels.With tough deadlines(苛刻的截止时间)，high expectations and the added pressures of having to be responsible，A levels hit us at the perfect age and before we spend ￡15,000 a year with loans. What is your opinion？Are A levels useless？Or are they a relic of our schooling system? 9．What can we know from the first paragraph? A．A levels are of great use to some students. B．A levels are given to the students with high Year 12 grades. C．Students will receive As unconditionally in the A Level examination. D．Some students may get unconditional offers before the final Year 13 exams. 10．Birmingham University promises to give places to students who . A．get As on their final exams B．show their interest in Birmingham University C．get good grades and choose Birmingham as their first choice D．prove their grades are excellent either in schooling or on their final exams 11．Which of the following would TheTimesHigherEducation agree with? A．The fairness of schooling system is being lost. B．The practice of predicting grades is being limited. C．The students receiving Ds are forbidden to go to university. D．The universities giving unconditional offers should be punished. 12．What does Paragraph 4 mainly want to show us? A．Entering a good college is everyone’s goal. B．A levels seem difficult for most students. C．Preparing for A levels seems to need more patience. D．Passing A levels is the only way to enter a top university. 二.七选五 School doesn’t have to be a prison.Whether you find school difficult，boring or just stressful，you can learn to make school easier and bring a lot more fun.Here are some ways to help you. Try a team sport.Some schools offer team sports that allow you to make friends with your fellow students. Soccer，track and field，basketball and football，can all make school have a little more fun. 1 If you don’t want to play sports，consider joining in the games and cheering for your team with your friends. 2 One of the most stressful parts of school can be making sure you have everything you’re supposed to have.Where’s your English homework? Where’s that math assignment? Is your pencil sharp？ The less you have to worry about these little things，the more you’ll be able to focus and enjoy school. 3 Take it easy on your teachers.Teachers are like students：some are great，some are less great. But teachers are in charge of the classroom.So even if you’re feeling frustrated or bored in class，you should be nice to your teachers. 4 Ask for help if you are having trouble with homework. 5 Make it easy.Ask for help at school by joining an after­class study group，if your school has one.Ask your teacher if you can stay 10－15 minutes after school to ask a few questions about your homework，if you’re embarrassed to ask during class.It’s always better to ask. A．Stay organized. B．Manage your homework better. C．So you can choose one of them to take up. D．Try to find kids you can talk to and play with. E. As a result，they will possibly be friendly back to you. F．Be prepared for class and everything will be easier. G．If you’re struggling in school，don’t try to take it all on by yourself. 三.完形填空 When I was 17 years old，I left my comfortable home in a wealthy Midwestern suburb to live as a foreign exchange student in a lower­middle­class neighborhood in a foreign country.I 1 in an apartment with no elevators，no dishwashers and one washer for 300 2 .The tile(瓷砖) floors were always 3 and the rainy winter days there seemed endless.I 4 to wash my clothes by hand in the bathtub and 5 water was so costly，I trained myself to 6 my waist­length hair in less than five minutes.

This switch drowned me in constant stress.I was confused about the new curriculum，and I knew it would take me a long time to adapt.But what I’ve gotten out of my experience over three countries is that no matter where you are studying，you are always learning.And a piece of advice to people who are going to move around the globe：It’s always best to just roll with it. 1．What did the writer think of life in the countryside? A．It wasn’t as interesting as she expected. B．It was no better than city life. C．She wished she had moved to the countryside earlier. D．She loved to live in the countryside. 2．What did the writer worry about most before moving to the US? A．It would be difficult to make new friends. B．Language would be a big problem for her.

D．It is different from the US school system. 4．What is the writer’s attitude towards her worldwide schooling? A．Positive. B．Negative. C．Critical. D．Doubtful. 1．答案　D 解析　细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“I found that I preferred the quiet country life over the noisy city life.”可知，作者更喜欢住在乡村。故选D。 2．答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Can you imagine...did know the basics.”可知，当妈妈告诉作者要去美国时，她想到自己的英语不好。所以她担心语言是最大的问题。故选B。 3．答案　D 解析　细节理解题。根据第五段中的“I found out that...uses the IB system.”可知，新加坡的教育体系与美国不同，故选D。 4．答案　A 解析　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“And a piece of advice...roll with it.”可知，对于那些要到世界各地的人，作者有一条忠告：随遇而安总是最好的。因此可以推断作者的态度还是很积极乐观的。故选A。 B The words “England” and “English” are perhaps the two most misused words in the English language.The British themselves often say England and English when they really mean Britain and British. What’s the difference，you may ask.To understand the question we have to know something about the history of the country and its people. We all know that Britain is an island country separated from the European continent by the English Channel.Actually there are two main islands.The larger one is called Britain，or Great Britain，and the smaller one is called Ireland，and these two，together with many small islands make up what is called the British Isles. The British Isles is a geographical term.It is not the name of any country.At present it is made up of two countries，the larger of which is the one we very often inaccurately call England.The full official name is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland，but people call it Britain or Great Britain for that.It consists of England，Scotland，Wales and a small part of Ireland—the northeastern part. People still tend to call Britain England not only because England is the largest in area and the most populous but mostly because England is the strongest and also the most influential country in every respect before it absorbed the other three countries(The whole of Ireland was a part of the United Kingdom at one time)．Call it national chauvinism(沙文主义) if you like，but people in England call Britain England out of habit rather than conscious sense of superiority，though it annoys the Welsh and especially the Scots who are proud of their separate national tradition. 5．The British Isles is made up of . A．one country B．two countries C．two and a half countries D．three countries 6．The full official name of Britain is . A．Great Britain B．England C．United Kingdom D．the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland 7．People call Britain England because of all of the following EXCEPT that . A．England is the largest in area and has the largest population B．people in England do so out of habit C．England is the nearest to the European continent D．England is the strongest and also the most influential in every respect 8．What’s the main idea of the passage? A．The formation of the UK. B．The chauvinism of the English. C．The location of the British Isles. D．The difference between “English” and “British”． 5．答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The British Isles is a geographical term...inaccurately call England.(不列颠群岛是一个地理术语。它不是任何国家的名字。现在它是由两个国家组成的，其中较大的一个我们经常不准确地称为英格兰)”可知，不列颠群岛由两个国家组成。故选B。 6．答案　D 解析　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The full official name is...Britain for that.(正式的全称是大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国，但人们因此称它为不列颠或大不列颠)”可知，英国的正式全称是大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国。故选D。 7．答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据最后一段前两句可知，人们仍然倾向于称英国为英格兰的原因主要有：英格兰是面积最大、人口最多的国家；英格兰在各个方面都是最强大、最具影响力的国家；人们出于习惯通常称英国为英格兰。不包括C项，故选C。 8．答案　D 解析　主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了England和English的区别。故选D。 C With more and more students being given unconditional offers (无条件入学许可) before they take their exams，have universities made A levels useless？A student has an unconditional offer even before he or she takes the final Year 13 exams. Based on a student’s Year 12 grades and his or her predicted results (预测成绩)，a place at university has been given to him or her. An education writer Laura McInerney discovered that earlier this year a survey by the University and College Union found one in ten staff said their university was making unconditional offers based on predicted grades alone.Birmingham University，part of the Russell Group，has built a whole unconditional offer plan，saying that applicants(申请人) with great academic performance in their schooling can get an offer，regardless of their final results，just so long as they make Birmingham their top choice.In 2014，Nottingham University made 176 unconditional offers to applicants with predicted three or more A grades.At least eight students started their degrees without achieving any As.Several achieved Ds or Es in at least one subject. The Times Higher Education has criticized the practice of giving unconditional offers based on the grounds of fairness.It has found that the practice is becoming more popular，year on year whilst the offers are largely given to the same people—students coming from rich families. But for the rest of us，how have A levels affected our preparation levels？For most students，they spend much time in preparing for A levels.With tough deadlines(苛刻的截止时间)，high expectations and the added pressures of having to be responsible，A levels hit us at the perfect age and before we spend ￡15,000 a year with loans. What is your opinion？Are A levels useless？Or are they a relic of our schooling system? 9．What can we know from the first paragraph? A．A levels are of great use to some students. B．A levels are given to the students with high Year 12 grades. C．Students will receive As unconditionally in the A Level examination. D．Some students may get unconditional offers before the final Year 13 exams. 10．Birmingham University promises to give places to students who . A．get As on their final exams B．show their interest in Birmingham University C．get good grades and choose Birmingham as their first choice D．prove their grades are excellent either in schooling or on their final exams 11．Which of the following would TheTimesHigherEducation agree with? A．The fairness of schooling system is being lost. B．The practice of predicting grades is being limited. C．The students receiving Ds are forbidden to go to university. D．The universities giving unconditional offers should be punished. 12．What does Paragraph 4 mainly want to show us? A．Entering a good college is everyone’s goal. B．A levels seem difficult for most students. C．Preparing for A levels seems to need more patience. D．Passing A levels is the only way to enter a top university. 语篇解读　英国普通教育证书高级水平考试相当于中国的高考。可是越来越多的考生考前就无条件地获得了大学录取证书。 9．答案　D 解析　细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“A student has an unconditional offer even before he or she takes the final Year 13 exams.”可知，有些学生可能在13年级最后的考试前就被录取了，故选D。 10．解析　细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Birmingham University...they make Birmingham their top choice.”可知，只要考生证明在校成绩优异且第一志愿填报伯明翰大学，就可以被伯明翰大学录取。 11．答案　A 解析　推理判断题。根据第三段“The Times Higher Education has criticized the practice of giving unconditional offers based on the grounds of fairness...students coming from rich families.”可知，The Times Higher Education 严厉批评大学招生以公正为幌子，以经济为目的，让部分有钱人受益的做法有失教育的公平性，A项“教育系统的公平性正在丧失”，符合题意。 12．答案　B 解析　推理判断题。根据第四段的“For most students，they spend much time...a year with loans.”可知，英国普通教育证书高级水平考试很难，学生得在最佳年龄阶段，顶着压力并且承担昂贵的费用才可能获取该考试的证书，故B项符合题意。 二.七选五 School doesn’t have to be a prison.Whether you find school difficult，boring or just stressful，you can learn to make school easier and bring a lot more fun.Here are some ways to help you. Try a team sport.Some schools offer team sports that allow you to make friends with your fellow students.
