四、阅读理解(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
A
The pH Scale
A solution is a liquid (液体) in which something is dissolved (溶解). Think about the difference between salt water and tap water. The salt water looks clear, but it still tastes salty because the salt is still there. Because solutions are made with water, which is made of hydrogen and oxygen, the hydrogen in the water can make a solution into an acid or a base.
In chemistry, the pH scale is used to tell how acidic or alkaline (basic) a solution is. Acids and bases are two types of chemicals. Acids can taste sour, such as lemon juice while bases are slippery (滑的) like soap.
Pure water has a pH of 7. A pH lower than 7 is more acidic. A pH greater than 7 is more alkaline or basic. When acids and bases react together, they usually make water. For example, stomach acid that breaks down food has a pH of 1, meaning it is a very strong acid. Antacids are used to calm heartburn and react (起化学反应) with stomach acid. The pH of antacids is around 10, which means antacids are basic.
26. What decides whether a solution is an acid or a base?
A. Tap. B. Hydrogen. C. Oxygen. D. Salt.
27. Which of the following about the pH scale is TRUE?
A. A solution with a higher pH is more acidic.
B. Soap is a base because it is slippery.
C. Baking soda is more basic because it has a pH of 9.
D. Eating more lemons is good for heartburn.
28. What’s the text most probably from?
A. A newspaper. B. A tour guide. C. A diary. D. A science magazine.
B
“Love”is one of the most basic and universal feelings in the world. It appears in different ways—such as a parent’s unconditional care, a friend’s heartfelt support, and a lover’s burning passion. It is also an unchanging theme in works of art from ancient times to the present, both in the East and the West.
Here are the lyrics of the song Make You Feel My Love, by Bob Dylan, a rock and folk music artist, who was awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize for Literature (文学) on October 13, 2016.
When the rain is blowing in your face,
and the whole world is on your case,
I could offer you a warm embrace,
to make you feel my love.
When the evening shadows and the stars appear,
and there is no one there to dry your tears,
I could hold you for a million years,
to make you feel my love.
I know you haven’t made your mind up yet,
but I would never do you wrong.
I’ve known it from the moment that we met,
no doubt in my mind where you belong.
I’d go hungry;I’d go black and blue,
I’d go crawling down the avenue.
No, there’s nothing that I wouldn’t do,
to make you feel my love.
The storms are raging on the rolling sea,
and on the highway of regret.
Though, winds of change are blowing wild and free,
you ain’t seen nothing like me yet.
I could make you happy,
make your dreams come true.
Nothing that I wouldn’t do.
Go to the ends of the Earth for you,
to make you feel my love
29. What can you learn from the passage?
A. Love is the only theme of art in the world.
B. The love between parents and children is a burning passion.
C. Bob Dylan has won the Nobel Prize for Literature once.
D. Bob Dylan is a famous writer instead of a rock and folk music artist.
30. What may the underlined phrase“on your case”mean in the song?
A. Waiting for your reply patiently.
B. Making you feel troubled or worried.
C. Standing by your side to support you.
D. Asking you for help in different ways.
31. In the song, Bob Dylan mainly used ____ to express how he was willing to do anything for his lover.
A. descriptions of feelings
B. examples of specific actions
C. repetitions of classic English sayings
D. comparisons of different life experiences
C
Nature and culture are often seen as opposite ideas. What belongs to nature cannot be the result of human activities and, on the other hand, cultural development is achieved against nature. However, this is not the only opinion on the relationship between nature and culture. Studies in the development of humans suggest that culture, whether taken as an effort against nature or a natural effort, is part of the development of the human species (物种).
Several modern writers saw the process of education as a struggle (斗争) against human nature. We are born with wild natures, such as eating and behaving in a disorganized way or acting selfishly. Education uses culture as a way to get us out of our wildest natures; it is thanks to culture that the human species could learn to adapt (适应), progress and raise itself above and beyond other species.
Over the past century and a half, however, studies in the history of human development have shown that the formation of culture is part of the biological adaptation. Consider, for example, hunting. It seems to be an adaptation, which allowed humans to move into new and different areas, opening up the opportunity to change living habits. At the same time, the development of weapons (武器) is related to that adaptation-from rocks and stones to a set of hunting tools, and from hunting tools to rules relating to the proper use of weapons. Hunting also seems to be responsible for a whole set of bodily abilities, such as balancing on one foot. Just think of how this very simple thing is closely related to dance, a key expression of human culture. It is then clear that biological development and cultural development are closely tied.
The transmission of culture seems to be directly related to what's in our blood. Just as snails carry their shell, so do we bring along our culture. However, culture is also passed on among people of the same times or among people belonging to different populations. We can learn how to make jiaozi even if we were born from Russian parents in Paris just as we can learn how to speak English even if none of our family or friends speaks that language.
32. Why are nature and culture often seen as opposite ideas?
A. Because human activities make nature instead of culture.
B. Because it seems cultural development is achieved against nature.
C. Because people think the development of humans is friendly to nature.
D. Because human species always take a natural effort to develop.
33. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. Culture belongs to human nature.
B. Nature teaches humans how to adapt.
C. Humans are supposed to be well organized.
D. Education pushes the human species to progress.
34. Why does the writer talk about hunting in Paragraph 3?
A. To suggest some possible ways of changing living habits.
B. To stress the importance of tools in humans' struggle for life.
C. To show how culture develops as humans adapt to the environment.
D. To explain why there is a need to call for the proper use of weapons.
35. What does the word “transmission” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. System. B. Spread. C. Start. D. Spirit.
D

A study shows whenever the unemployment rate increases by 1%, the death rate increases correspondingly (相应地) by 2%. All these come down to one point Work is helpful to health.

【导语】本文介绍街头艺术在全球的流行、起源于1960年代纽约、艺术家Swoon的故事,以及互联网对街头艺术的影响。
【16题详解】
句意:它正在全世界迅速传播。
根据上下文“街头艺术是一种很流行的艺术形式,你可以在世界各地的建筑和街道标识上看到它”,可知街头艺术正在全球迅速传播,应选spreading“传播”。watching“观看”、making“制作”、searching“搜索”均不能表示街头艺术在全球的发展状态。
【17题详解】
句意:年轻人会用特殊的喷漆罐,在城市各处的墙壁和汽车上喷涂文字和其他图像。
around the city是固定搭配,意为“在城市各处/周围”,符合街头艺术分布广泛的特点。behind“在……后面”、by“在……旁边”、under“在……下面”均无法表达遍布城市的含义。
【18题详解】
句意:她剪出人物纸像并把它们贴在墙上。
cut out意为“剪出、裁剪”,与“paper images(纸质图像)”搭配,符合Swoon创作方式的描述。puts out“熄灭/出版”、turns out“结果是”、works out“计算出”均不符合剪纸创作的语境。
【19题详解】

【20题详解】
句意:纽约的人们喜欢Swoon强烈而有趣的风格。
前文介绍了Swoon独特的创作方式,这里指她的艺术风格受到人们喜爱,应选style。story“故事”、problem“问题”、program“节目”均与欣赏艺术作品无关。
【21题详解】
句意:他们中的一些人选择街头艺术是因为它更贴近人们。
街头艺术出现在公共空间,与传统画廊艺术相比,更贴近大众生活,应选closer。safer“更安全”、lower“更低”、better“更好”均无法体现街头艺术与大众的关系。
【22题详解】
句意:纽约的萨克斯第五大道百货公司最近将一位街头艺术家的设计用在了橱窗和购物袋上。
前文提到广告公司使用街头艺术,这里用recently“最近”说明这一现象的实例,符合语境。hardly“几乎不”、seldom“很少”为否定副词,与语境矛盾;almost“几乎”不符合时态表达。
【23题详解】
句意:在当今世界,互联网对街头艺术有很大影响。
have a big influence on 是固定搭配,意为“对……很大影响”,后文也提到了互联网如何改变街头艺术的传播方式。success“成功”、difference“不同”、present“礼物”均无法与on搭配表达此含义。
【24题详解】
句意:然而,许多人说在网上看图片永远不如亲眼看到那么好。
前文说互联网让艺术家能向全世界展示作品,这里说现场观看的效果更好,前后是转折关系,应选however。moreover“此外”表递进,otherwise“否则”、therefore“因此”表因果,均不符合逻辑。
【25题详解】
句意:街头艺术与大城市的活力和生活共存。
前文提到街头艺术给人深刻的印象和活力,这里用energy“活力、能量”呼应前文,也符合城市街头艺术的特质。nature“自然”、heat“热量”、calm“平静”均无法体现街头艺术与城市的关系。
四、阅读理解(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
A
The pH Scale
A solution is a liquid (液体) in which something is dissolved (溶解). Think about the difference between salt water and tap water. The salt water looks clear, but it still tastes salty because the salt is still there. Because solutions are made with water, which is made of hydrogen and oxygen, the hydrogen in the water can make a solution into an acid or a base.
In chemistry, the pH scale is used to tell how acidic or alkaline (basic) a solution is. Acids and bases are two types of chemicals. Acids can taste sour, such as lemon juice while bases are slippery (滑的) like soap.
Pure water has a pH of 7. A pH lower than 7 is more acidic. A pH greater than 7 is more alkaline or basic. When acids and bases react together, they usually make water. For example, stomach acid that breaks down food has a pH of 1, meaning it is a very strong acid. Antacids are used to calm heartburn and react (起化学反应) with stomach acid. The pH of antacids is around 10, which means antacids are basic.
26. What decides whether a solution is an acid or a base?
A. Tap. B. Hydrogen. C. Oxygen. D. Salt.
27. Which of the following about the pH scale is TRUE?
A. A solution with a higher pH is more acidic.
B. Soap is a base because it is slippery.
C. Baking soda is more basic because it has a pH of 9.
D. Eating more lemons is good for heartburn.
28. What’s the text most probably from?
A. A newspaper. B. A tour guide. C. A diary. D. A science magazine.
【答案】26. B 27. B 28. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了溶液的酸碱性与pH值的相关知识,解释了pH值如何衡量溶液的酸碱度,并举例说明生活中的酸和碱。
【26题详解】
第一段指出“Because solutions are made with water, which is made of hydrogen and oxygen, the hydrogen in the water can make a solution into an acid or a base.”水中的氢(hydrogen)决定溶液是酸还是碱。
【27题详解】
第二段指出“Acids can taste sour, such as lemon juice while bases are slippery (滑的) like soap.”可知肥皂滑腻的特性符合碱的特征。
【28题详解】
全文为化学科普知识,介绍pH值、酸和碱的科学概念,应是出自一本科学杂志。
B
“Love”is one of the most basic and universal feelings in the world. It appears in different ways—such as a parent’s unconditional care, a friend’s heartfelt support, and a lover’s burning passion. It is also an unchanging theme in works of art from ancient times to the present, both in the East and the West.
Here are the lyrics of the song Make You Feel My Love, by Bob Dylan, a rock and folk music artist, who was awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize for Literature (文学) on October 13, 2016.
When the rain is blowing in your face,
and the whole world is on your case,
I could offer you a warm embrace,
to make you feel my love.
When the evening shadows and the stars appear,
and there is no one there to dry your tears,
I could hold you for a million years,
to make you feel my love.
I know you haven’t made your mind up yet,
but I would never do you wrong.
I’ve known it from the moment that we met,
no doubt in my mind where you belong.
I’d go hungry;I’d go black and blue,
I’d go crawling down the avenue.
No, there’s nothing that I wouldn’t do,
to make you feel my love.
The storms are raging on the rolling sea,
and on the highway of regret.
Though, winds of change are blowing wild and free,
you ain’t seen nothing like me yet.
I could make you happy,
make your dreams come true.
Nothing that I wouldn’t do.
Go to the ends of the Earth for you,
to make you feel my love
29. What can you learn from the passage?
A. Love is the only theme of art in the world.
B. The love between parents and children is a burning passion.
C. Bob Dylan has won the Nobel Prize for Literature once.
D. Bob Dylan is a famous writer instead of a rock and folk music artist.
30. What may the underlined phrase“on your case”mean in the song?
A. Waiting for your reply patiently.
B. Making you feel troubled or worried.
C. Standing by your side to support you.
D. Asking you for help in different ways.
31. In the song, Bob Dylan mainly used ____ to express how he was willing to do anything for his lover.
A. descriptions of feelings
B. examples of specific actions
C. repetitions of classic English sayings
D. comparisons of different life experiences
【答案】29. C 30. B 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了 “爱” 的普遍性和艺术永恒性,并节选鲍勃・迪伦的歌曲歌词,用具体行动表达对爱人的深情。
【29题详解】
本文介绍了“爱”的普遍性和艺术永恒性,并节选鲍勃・迪伦的歌曲歌词,用具体行动表达对爱人的深情。
【30题详解】
歌词中前两句 “When the rain is blowing in your face, and the whole world is on your case”,结合语境,雨水打在脸上,通常是困境的象征,后文紧接着提到“我可以给你一个温暖的拥抱,让你感受到我的爱”,由此可推断,“on your case”应是表达“让你感到困扰或担忧”的意思。A 项“耐心等待你的回复”、C 项“站在你身边支持你”、D项“以不同方式向你求助”,均与语境不符。
【31题详解】
歌词中提到“I could offer you a warm embrace”“I could hold you for a million years”“I’d go hungry; I’d go black and blue, I’d go crawling down the avenue”“Go to the ends of the Earth for you”等,都是具体的行动例子,通过这些具体行动,表达了愿意为爱人做任何事的决心。A项 “自然场景描写” 是衬托情感,并非主要表达方式;C项 “经典英语谚语重复”、D项 “不同生活经历对比”,文中均未体现。
C
Nature and culture are often seen as opposite ideas. What belongs to nature cannot be the result of human activities and, on the other hand, cultural development is achieved against nature. However, this is not the only opinion on the relationship between nature and culture. Studies in the development of humans suggest that culture, whether taken as an effort against nature or a natural effort, is part of the development of the human species (物种).
Several modern writers saw the process of education as a struggle (斗争) against human nature. We are born with wild natures, such as eating and behaving in a disorganized way or acting selfishly. Education uses culture as a way to get us out of our wildest natures; it is thanks to culture that the human species could learn to adapt (适应), progress and raise itself above and beyond other species.
Over the past century and a half, however, studies in the history of human development have shown that the formation of culture is part of the biological adaptation. Consider, for example, hunting. It seems to be an adaptation, which allowed humans to move into new and different areas, opening up the opportunity to change living habits. At the same time, the development of weapons (武器) is related to that adaptation-from rocks and stones to a set of hunting tools, and from hunting tools to rules relating to the proper use of weapons. Hunting also seems to be responsible for a whole set of bodily abilities, such as balancing on one foot. Just think of how this very simple thing is closely related to dance, a key expression of human culture. It is then clear that biological development and cultural development are closely tied.
The transmission of culture seems to be directly related to what's in our blood. Just as snails carry their shell, so do we bring along our culture. However, culture is also passed on among people of the same times or among people belonging to different populations. We can learn how to make jiaozi even if we were born from Russian parents in Paris just as we can learn how to speak English even if none of our family or friends speaks that language.
32. Why are nature and culture often seen as opposite ideas?
A. Because human activities make nature instead of culture.
B. Because it seems cultural development is achieved against nature.
C. Because people think the development of humans is friendly to nature.
D. Because human species always take a natural effort to develop.
33. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. Culture belongs to human nature.
B. Nature teaches humans how to adapt.
C. Humans are supposed to be well organized.
D. Education pushes the human species to progress.
34. Why does the writer talk about hunting in Paragraph 3?
A. To suggest some possible ways of changing living habits.
B. To stress the importance of tools in humans' struggle for life.
C. To show how culture develops as humans adapt to the environment.
D. To explain why there is a need to call for the proper use of weapons.
35. What does the word “transmission” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. System. B. Spread. C. Start. D. Spirit.
【答案】32. B 33. D 34. C 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文围绕自然与文化的关系展开,反驳了二者对立的传统观点,并提出了二者紧密关联、相辅相成的理念。
【32题详解】
文章首先提出自然和文化是相互对立的观点,接着说出形成这一观点的原因“cultural development is achieved against nature”,以此来对上面的问题进行解释说明。
【33题详解】
第二段的核心句“Education uses culture as a way to get us out of our wildest natures…”,选项D中“Education pushes the human species to progress.”则精准概括了段落主旨“教育借助文化以改造人性、推动人类进步”,这是对段落内容的高度凝练。
【34题详解】
第三段开头指出“the formation of culture is part of the biological adaptation.”文化的形成是生物适应的一部分,接着后文通过举例,进一步对其进行论证,与选项C中的内容完全符合。
【35题详解】
后文直接用“However, culture is also passed on among … ”的内容,以及一些具体实例,解释了文化可以再不同人群中进行传播,其中“transmission”和“passed on”相互对应,所以其也应具有“文化传递、传播”的含义。
D
Holmes rubbed his hands together excitedly. His eyes shone and he leant forward in his chair.
“Tell us your story,” he said.
Miss Morstan began her story and we listened.
“My father,” she began, “was a captain in the army. When I was very young, he was sent to India. My mother was dead and I had no other relatives in England. So, while my father was away, I was sent to school.”
“When I was seventeen, I received a letter from my father. He said that he was leaving India and coming back to England. He gave me the address of a hotel in London. He asked me to meet him there.”
“I was very happy and excited about seeing my dear father again. I went to London and arrived at the hotel. I asked for Captain Morstan, my father. But I was told by the hotel manager that my father was not there. He had gone out the night before and not returned.”
“I waited all day and all night, but my father didn’t come back to the hotel. Finally, I went to the police. They advertised for Captain Morstan in all the newspapers, but without success. I never saw my dear father again.”
…
“Four years after my father disappeared,” continued Miss Morstan, “I saw an advertisement in the newspaper. The date was 4th May, 1882. To my surprise, the advertisement asked for the address of Miss Mary Morstan. I said that if I advertised my address, I would receive some very good news.”
“What did you do?” asked Holmes.
“I advertised my address in the same newspaper. The next day, I received a small cardboard box. Inside the box was a lovely pearl (珍珠). And I have received another five pearls since that day. They arrive every year on the same day. Look.”
She opened a flat box and showed us six beautiful pearls.
“____” asked Holmes.
“Nothing at all, ” replied Miss Morstan. Then she continued, “But the strangest thing of all happened this morning. That is why I came to see you. This morning, I received a letter. Please read it.”
“Thank you,” said Holmes. He took the letter and studied it carefully.
36. When did Miss Morstan come to see Holmes?
A. In 1878. B. In 1882. C. In 1886. D. In 1887.
37. Why did Miss Morstan come to see Holmes?

B. Because she had got some lovely pearls.
C. Because her father had just disappeared.
D. Because she had received a strange letter.
38. How did Miss Morstan feel after she got the letter that morning?

39. Which question is the most suitable in the blank in the passage?
A. Was there any letter with the pearls?
B. Did you meet anyone after that?
C. Did anyone know about this?
D. Were these pearls your father’s?
40. What is the correct order of the following sentences?
a. Miss Morstan saw an advertisement.
b. Miss Morstan came to see Holmes.
c. Miss Morstan received a letter from her father.
d. Miss Morstan received some pearls.

A. c-e-a-d-b B. d-c-e-a-b C. b-c-a-e-d D. e-b-c-a-d
【答案】36. D 37. D 38. B 39. A 40. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,节选自侦探小说片段,主要讲述了莫斯坦小姐向福尔摩斯讲述父亲失踪、每年收到珍珠以及收到神秘信件的离奇经历,寻求福尔摩斯的帮助。
【36题详解】
父亲失踪于莫斯坦小姐17岁时,1882年是失踪四年后,她从1882年开始每年收到1颗珍珠,到她来找福尔摩斯时一共收到了6颗珍珠,说明又过了5年(1882+5 =1887),她在1887年收到神秘信并来找福尔摩斯。
【37题详解】
原文倒数第二段提到“But the strangest thing of all happened this morning. That is why I came to see you. This morning, received a letter.”,说明她是因为收到了一封奇怪的信才来求助。
【38题详解】
文中倒数第二段用“the strangest thing of all happened this morning”描述信件事件,“strangest”对应“surprised”(惊讶的)。
【39题详解】
福尔摩斯的问题得到“Nothing at all”的回答,结合上下文,她只收到了珍珠没有附带信件,之后才收到第一封神秘信,故福尔摩斯的问题是“Was there any letter with the pearls?”。
【40题详解】
按原文时间顺序排列,对应事件为:收到父亲的信→父亲失踪→看到寻人广告→收到珍珠→收到神秘信并来找福尔摩斯,顺序为c-e-a-d-b。

【46题详解】
句意:它形成于18世纪末,并在19世纪中期发展成熟。 form意为“形成”,是动词,主语It与动词form之间是被动关系,需用被动语态。时间状语“in the late 18th century”表示过去,因此,句子用一般过去时的被动语态,其结构是“was/were+动词的过去分词”,主语是It,be动词用was,formed的过去分词是formed。
【47题详解】
句意:原因是它展现了丰富的中国文化,包括精彩的故事、绘画和服饰。include意为“包含”,是动词,原句已有谓语动词,此处应用介词including,补充说明“中国文化”包含的具体内容。
【48题详解】
句意:他们中的每一个都有自己的服饰和脸谱。 they意为“他们”,是人称代词主格,介词of后需用人称代词的宾格形式,they的宾格为them。Each of them意为“他们中的每一个”,作主语时谓语动词用单数。
【49题详解】
句意:例如,年轻的男性角色被称为小生。know意为“知道”,是动词,和主语之间是被动关系,句子是被动语态,其结构是“be+动词的过去分词”,know的过去分词是known。be known as是固定短语,意为“被称为;被认为是;以……著称”。
【50题详解】
句意:京剧通过演唱和不同的动作来讲述故事。sing唱,是动词,介词“by后接动名词形式”,表示“通过某种方式”。sing的动名词形式是singing。
