When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor, Dr. Gibbs. He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. He never invited us to play in his yard, but he was a very kind person. When Dr. Gibbs wasn’t saving lives, he was planting trees. He owned a large field and wanted to make it a forest.
The good doctor had some interesting ideas about planting trees. He never watered his new trees. Once I asked why, he said that watering plants spoiled them, and that if you watered them, each baby tree would grow weaker and weaker, so you had to make things difficult for them and pick out the weaker trees early on. He talked about how watering trees made for shallow (浅的)roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow deep roots in search of water under the earth by themselves. Deep roots were very important. So he never watered his trees. He’d planted an oak and, instead of watering it every morning, he’d beat it with a rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s attention.
Dr. Gibbs died several years after I left home. Every now and then, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I watched him plant about twenty-five years ago. They’re very big and strong now. I planted some trees a few years back and carried water to them for a whole summer. After two years of caring too much, whenever a cold wind blows in, they shake a lot.
Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. Mostly I pray (祈祷) that their lives will be easy. But lately I’ve been thinking that it’s time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to face difficulties. There’s always a cold wind blowing somewhere, so what we need to do is to pray for roots that reach deep into the brave heart, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we could face it strongly and won’t be beaten down.
41. We know from the reading, the doctor ______.
A. didn’t know how to plant trees at all
B. had his own ways of planting trees
C. wasn’t good at his own medical job
D. had nothing to do but plant trees
42. When Dr. Gibbs said “... pick out the weaker trees early on.”, he meant that ______.
A. some weak trees would be easily found out at the beginning
B. he would choose the weak trees to water earlier
C. the weak trees would be sent to his patients later
D. he would not plant weak trees so early anymore
43. The passage tells us that the writer ______.
A. beat all his trees with a rolled-up newspaper
B. often water his trees
C. took too much care of his trees
D. didn’t have a large field
44. The writer wants to change his prayer, hoping that ______.
A. his trees will be stronger than Dr. Gibbs'
B. his trees will not be beaten down
C. his sons will be better at planting trees
D. his sons will be able to face difficulties
45. Which can be the best title of the reading?
A. Watering Trees
B. Growing Roots
C. Doctor and his Neighbor
D. Father and his Children
C
Art researchers have found a hidden painting of a man under one of Pablo Picasso’s masterpieces, The Blue Room. By using infrared (红外线的) imagery they discovered that the hidden man under the painting was a man with his face resting on his hand. Now the question that scientists at The Phillips Collection hope to answer is simple. Who is he?
The finding of the hidden man in The Blue Room leads to new research about the 1901 painting, which was created by Picasso in Paris at the start of his blue period of unhappiness. Researchers discovered that the hidden man was painted in a reworked composition by Picasso. They are sure that it is not a self-portrait. They think it might be the Paris art dealer Ambrose Villard who hosted Picasso’s first show in 1901, but there’s no record or evidence to prove this, so the research continues.
Hidden pictures have been found under other important Picasso paintings, such as La Vie and Woman Ironing. A technical analysis of La Vie at the Cleveland Museum of Art also found that Picasso reworked the painting’s composition. And scientists found a portrait of a man under Picasso’s painting Woman Ironing at the Guggenheim Museum in Manhattan.
Dorothy Kosinski, director of The Phillips Collection, said more new knowledge about Picasso’s paintings can be discovered through high-tech cooperation (合作) among museums. “Our audiences are curious about the high-tech research because it can help them know more about the paintings. It’s giving them a doorway to make them understand Picasso’s paintings more,” she said. “The more we can understand, the greater our appreciation of the paintings will be.”
46. From Paragraph 1, researchers found ________.
A. a man is hiding behind The Blue Room
B. a painting of a man is hidden under The Blue Room
C. The Blue Room is one of Pablo Picasso’s masterpieces
D. a man is taking a rest in The Blue Room of Pablo Picasso
47. What can we know about the hidden man in The Blue Room?
A. He first showed up in 1901.
B. He is Ambrose Villard from Paris.
C. Nobody knows for sure who he is.
D. He was not painted by Pablo Picasso.
48. What’s the similarity among The Blue Room, La Vie and Woman Ironing?
A. They are painted by Dorothy Kosinski.
B. They have a hidden picture under them.
C. They are exhibited at the same museum.
D. They have a hidden self-portrait in them.
49. According to Dorothy Kosinski, we can infer that ________.
A. people learn little about Picasso’s paintings
B. high-tech cooperation among museums is necessary
C. nobody is interested in the hidden man in Picasso’s painting
D. high-tech research attracts more attention than Picasso’s paintings
50. From the last paragraph we can know ________.
A. audiences are curious about the doorway of the museums
B. the research on Picasso’s works can add mystery to him
C. more people will be crazy about researching Picasso’s life
D. the high-tech research can help people know more about Picasso’s paintings
D
It seems like people today are more easily offended than ever before.
If smoking in an elevator or talking in a movie theater were normal in the past, they are considered to be rude today. We used to be obliged to answer whatever questions a family elder directed our way, but now when a prying (爱打听的) relative asks about our test grades or dream university --- information that we’d rather keep to ourselves --- we feel offended, even if they mean well.
The boundary between “politeness” and “rudeness” has changed over the years, especially among young people.
But this change doesn’t just go one way --- things that used to be considered rude may also go across to the other side of the boundary. For example, to stand up for themselves, some youths may try to make statements by using phone cases printed with phrases like “Leave me alone” or “None of your business”. In their eyes, this is more like being independent than being rude.
“These phenomena involve rejecting previously moral order to ignore insults, recognize the good intentions of those who accidentally give offense, and be charitable (体谅的) toward those with whom we disagree,” wrote Time. “They suggest a new morality.”
And this fresh morality is introduced by a new group of people. According to The Economist, young people, or millennials (千禧一代), are “the best-educated generation ever”, which is why they tend to be more conscious about their privacy and personal space. They are also freer than previous generations, more eager to explore the world and refuse to be tied down by elders’ rules.
But there are, of course, people who think that millennials have gone too far to defend their own needs. An earlier Time article called millennials the “Me Me Me Generation”, saying that they are self-involved, less grateful and less tolerant of people.
But Lauren Martin, a lifestyle writer in the US, and a millennial herself, has a theory.
“Our generation is an anomaly (与众不同的事物),” she wrote on Elite Daily. “We refuse to do things their way, so they call us entitled. We refuse to sit in cubicles (办公室隔间), so they call us spoiled. We refuse to follow their plans, so they call us stubborn. What they are slowly realizing, however, is we’re not lazy, stubborn or entitled. We just refuse to accept things as they’re given to us.”
51. What is the article mainly about?
A. Why people today are more easily offended.
B. The definition of “politeness” and “rudeness”.
C. The morality of millennials and some views on it.
D. Key characteristics of the millennial generation.
52. What can we conclude from the first four paragraphs?
A. A prying relative always makes people feel offended.
B. Many young people can’t tell politeness from rudeness.
C. Young people today are more independent than ever.
D. Traditional morality has been rejected by some.
53. According to The Economist, millennials ______.
a. are more curious about the outside world.
b. are less thankful and understanding.
c. are more concerned about their privacy.
d. are more likely to challenge elders’ rules.
e. enjoy more freedom and are self-involved
A. a, b, c B. a, c, d C. b, d, e D. c, d, e
54. What does Lauren Martin think of millennials?
A. They are too stubborn to listen to others.
B. They cannot get along well with others.
C. They have their own ways of viewing things.
D. They should adjust their way to defend their own needs.
55. What does the underlined word “entitled” mean?
A. Arrogant. B. Lazy. C. Conscious. D. Independent.

阅读表达
When I was ten years old, on a family vacation to Las Vegas, I felt very uncomfortable. I was immediately taken to the hospital. It turned out that I had a big stroke(中风). It made me no longer able to talk, read, write and understand what anyone was saying to me. The entire right side of my body had no feeling.
I stayed in the hospital for months. There I met my favorite doctor. Her last visit was the most important visit of all. She sent me a box as a gift. Inside was a little toy figure of a soldier. She said, “He’s a fighter. You should be like him, David. As long as you try to be him, you can triumph over your illness at last.” She moved her arms as she was fighting to help me understand.
The next few years’ fighting was really hard. I went to lots of speech and physical treatments. I did learn to walk again, but my right arm remained unable to feel anything. Slowly, I learned to talk again. I started with one syllable(音节)-then more. It allowed me to go to a special school. But I couldn’t even spell my own name. Everything was about language and letters. Talking was hard. So was reading. I was sad. But I was still intelligent. Eventually, I decided to let life move on and do something for other stroke survivors.
To help them, I founded a nonprofit organization. I wrote a book on stroke recovery, which has become a guide for stroke survivors and their family members. To help people like me, I also keep speaking at national conferences and hospitals about how to better recover from the disease. Recently, I was invited to speak at a stroke conference to doctors and patients and tell my story.
Today, I can walk, run, and drive. But I still can’t use my right arm. However, there are so many things I can do. The fight to recover is hard. I’ll never, ever give up.

When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor, Dr. Gibbs. He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. He never invited us to play in his yard, but he was a very kind person. When Dr. Gibbs wasn’t saving lives, he was planting trees. He owned a large field and wanted to make it a forest.
The good doctor had some interesting ideas about planting trees. He never watered his new trees. Once I asked why, he said that watering plants spoiled them, and that if you watered them, each baby tree would grow weaker and weaker, so you had to make things difficult for them and pick out the weaker trees early on. He talked about how watering trees made for shallow (浅的)roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow deep roots in search of water under the earth by themselves. Deep roots were very important. So he never watered his trees. He’d planted an oak and, instead of watering it every morning, he’d beat it with a rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s attention.
Dr. Gibbs died several years after I left home. Every now and then, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I watched him plant about twenty-five years ago. They’re very big and strong now. I planted some trees a few years back and carried water to them for a whole summer. After two years of caring too much, whenever a cold wind blows in, they shake a lot.
Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. Mostly I pray (祈祷) that their lives will be easy. But lately I’ve been thinking that it’s time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to face difficulties. There’s always a cold wind blowing somewhere, so what we need to do is to pray for roots that reach deep into the brave heart, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we could face it strongly and won’t be beaten down.
41. We know from the reading, the doctor ______.
A. didn’t know how to plant trees at all
B. had his own ways of planting trees
C. wasn’t good at his own medical job
D. had nothing to do but plant trees
42. When Dr. Gibbs said “... pick out the weaker trees early on.”, he meant that ______.
A. some weak trees would be easily found out at the beginning
B. he would choose the weak trees to water earlier
C. the weak trees would be sent to his patients later
D. he would not plant weak trees so early anymore
43. The passage tells us that the writer ______.
A. beat all his trees with a rolled-up newspaper
B. often water his trees
C. took too much care of his trees
D. didn’t have a large field
44. The writer wants to change his prayer, hoping that ______.
A. his trees will be stronger than Dr. Gibbs'
B. his trees will not be beaten down
C. his sons will be better at planting trees
D. his sons will be able to face difficulties
45. Which can be the best title of the reading?
A. Watering Trees
B. Growing Roots
C. Doctor and his Neighbor
D. Father and his Children
【答案】41. B 42. A 43. C 44. D 45. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述作者通过邻居及自己种树的经历,意识到人需要长出深根,才能够坚强地面对风吹雨打,勇敢地面对困难。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The good doctor had some interesting ideas about planting trees. He never watered his new trees. (这位好医生对植树有一些有趣的想法。他从不给新树浇水)”可知,医生对种树有很多想法,有自己种树的方式。故选B。
【42题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“He never watered his new trees. Once I asked why, he said that watering plants spoiled them, and that if you watered them, each baby tree would grow weaker and weaker, so you had to make things difficult for them (他从不给他的新树浇水。有一次我问为什么,他说浇灌植物会破坏它们,如果你给它们浇水,每棵小树都会变得越来越弱。所以你必须做一些让他们困难的事)”及“He talked about how watering trees made for shallow (浅的) roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow deep roots in search of water under the earth by themselves. (他谈到了浇水树如何形成浅根,以及未浇水的树木如何必须长出深根才能自己在地下寻找水)”可知,如果给新树浇水,小树会变虚弱;如果不给树浇水,树为了存活,就必须自己长出深根。故推知如果不给树浇水,树又不会长出深根,那么它就会死亡,就会在一开始被容易地找出来。由此推知,pick out the weaker trees early on表示“一些虚弱的树木在开始时很容易被发现”。故选A。
【43题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“I planted some trees a few years back and carried water to them for a whole summer. After two years of caring too much, whenever a cold wind blows in, they shake a lot. (几年前,我种了一些树,并给它们带来了整个夏天的水。非常关心他们,2年后,每当一阵寒风吹来时,他们就会摇晃很多)”可知,作者种树时,非常照顾树。故选C。
【44题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“But lately I’ve been thinking that it’s time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to face difficulties. There’s always a cold wind blowing somewhere, so what we need to do is to pray for roots that reach deep into the brave heart, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we could face it strongly and won’t be beaten down. (但最近我一直在想,是时候改变我的祷告了。我知道我的孩子将面临困难。总有一阵冷风吹到某个地方,所以我们需要做的是祈祷根部深入勇敢的心灵,所以当雨水落下,风吹来时,我们可以坚强地面对它,不会被打败。)”可知,作者改变了自己的祷告,希望孩子们能够面对困难,坚强地面对困难,故选D。
【45题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Deep roots were very important. (深根是非常重要的)”及最后一段“But lately I’ve been thinking that it’s time to change my prayer. I know my children are going to face difficulties. There’s always a cold wind blowing somewhere, so what we need to do is to pray for roots that reach deep into the brave heart, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we could face it strongly and won’t be beaten down. (但最近我一直在想,是时候改变我的祷告了。我知道我的孩子将面临困难。总有一阵冷风吹到某个地方,所以我们需要做的是祈祷根部深入勇敢的心灵,所以当雨水落下,风吹来时,我们可以坚强地面对它,不会被打败)”可知,作者希望自己的孩子长出深根,能够坚强地面对风吹雨打,勇敢地面对困难。由此推知,文章的最佳标题是Growing Roots(生根)。故选B。
C
Art researchers have found a hidden painting of a man under one of Pablo Picasso’s masterpieces, The Blue Room. By using infrared (红外线的) imagery they discovered that the hidden man under the painting was a man with his face resting on his hand. Now the question that scientists at The Phillips Collection hope to answer is simple. Who is he?
The finding of the hidden man in The Blue Room leads to new research about the 1901 painting, which was created by Picasso in Paris at the start of his blue period of unhappiness. Researchers discovered that the hidden man was painted in a reworked composition by Picasso. They are sure that it is not a self-portrait. They think it might be the Paris art dealer Ambrose Villard who hosted Picasso’s first show in 1901, but there’s no record or evidence to prove this, so the research continues.
Hidden pictures have been found under other important Picasso paintings, such as La Vie and Woman Ironing. A technical analysis of La Vie at the Cleveland Museum of Art also found that Picasso reworked the painting’s composition. And scientists found a portrait of a man under Picasso’s painting Woman Ironing at the Guggenheim Museum in Manhattan.
Dorothy Kosinski, director of The Phillips Collection, said more new knowledge about Picasso’s paintings can be discovered through high-tech cooperation (合作) among museums. “Our audiences are curious about the high-tech research because it can help them know more about the paintings. It’s giving them a doorway to make them understand Picasso’s paintings more,” she said. “The more we can understand, the greater our appreciation of the paintings will be.”

D
It seems like people today are more easily offended than ever before.
If smoking in an elevator or talking in a movie theater were normal in the past, they are considered to be rude today. We used to be obliged to answer whatever questions a family elder directed our way, but now when a prying (爱打听的) relative asks about our test grades or dream university --- information that we’d rather keep to ourselves --- we feel offended, even if they mean well.
The boundary between “politeness” and “rudeness” has changed over the years, especially among young people.
But this change doesn’t just go one way --- things that used to be considered rude may also go across to the other side of the boundary. For example, to stand up for themselves, some youths may try to make statements by using phone cases printed with phrases like “Leave me alone” or “None of your business”. In their eyes, this is more like being independent than being rude.
“These phenomena involve rejecting previously moral order to ignore insults, recognize the good intentions of those who accidentally give offense, and be charitable (体谅的) toward those with whom we disagree,” wrote Time. “They suggest a new morality.”
And this fresh morality is introduced by a new group of people. According to The Economist, young people, or millennials (千禧一代), are “the best-educated generation ever”, which is why they tend to be more conscious about their privacy and personal space. They are also freer than previous generations, more eager to explore the world and refuse to be tied down by elders’ rules.
But there are, of course, people who think that millennials have gone too far to defend their own needs. An earlier Time article called millennials the “Me Me Me Generation”, saying that they are self-involved, less grateful and less tolerant of people.
But Lauren Martin, a lifestyle writer in the US, and a millennial herself, has a theory.
“Our generation is an anomaly (与众不同的事物),” she wrote on Elite Daily. “We refuse to do things their way, so they call us entitled. We refuse to sit in cubicles (办公室隔间), so they call us spoiled. We refuse to follow their plans, so they call us stubborn. What they are slowly realizing, however, is we’re not lazy, stubborn or entitled. We just refuse to accept things as they’re given to us.”
51. What is the article mainly about?
A. Why people today are more easily offended.
B. The definition of “politeness” and “rudeness”.
C. The morality of millennials and some views on it.
D. Key characteristics of the millennial generation.
52. What can we conclude from the first four paragraphs?
A. A prying relative always makes people feel offended.
B. Many young people can’t tell politeness from rudeness.
C. Young people today are more independent than ever.
D. Traditional morality has been rejected by some.
53. According to The Economist, millennials ______.
a. are more curious about the outside world.
b. are less thankful and understanding.
c. are more concerned about their privacy.
d. are more likely to challenge elders’ rules.
e. enjoy more freedom and are self-involved
A. a, b, c B. a, c, d C. b, d, e D. c, d, e
54. What does Lauren Martin think of millennials?
A. They are too stubborn to listen to others.
B. They cannot get along well with others.
C. They have their own ways of viewing things.
D. They should adjust their way to defend their own needs.
55. What does the underlined word “entitled” mean?
A. Arrogant. B. Lazy. C. Conscious. D. Independent.
【答案】51. C 52. D 53. B 54. C 55. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文章讲述的是千禧一代的道德观和关于它的一些观点。
【51题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第六段“this fresh morality is introduced by a new group of people. According to The Economist, young people, or millennials (千禧一代), are “the best-educated generation ever”, which is why they tend to be more conscious about their privacy and personal space. They are also freer than previous generations, more eager to explore the world and refuse to be tied down by elders’ rules. 这种全新的道德是由一群新的人提出的。据《经济学人》报道,年轻人,或者说千禧一代,是“受教育程度最高的一代”,这就是为什么他们更关注自己的隐私和个人空间。他们也比前几代人更自由,更渴望探索世界,拒绝被长辈的规矩束缚。”和第七段“But there are, of course, people who think that millennials have gone too far to defend their own needs. An earlier Time article called millennials the “Me Me Me Generation”,当然,也有一些人认为千禧一代在捍卫自己的需求上做得太过了。早些时候的一篇文章将千禧一代称为“Me Me Me Me Generation”,称他们自我中心、不感恩、不宽容。”并结合全文内容可知,文章讲述的是千禧一代的道德观和关于它的一些观点。故选C。
【52题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“These phenomena involve rejecting previously moral order to ignore insults, recognize the good intentions of those who accidentally give offense, and be charitable (体谅的) toward those with whom we disagree,这些现象包括拒绝先前的道德秩序,忽视侮辱,认识到那些无意冒犯的人的良好意图,对那些我们不同意的人仁慈”可知,从前四段我们可以得出传统道德已经被一些人所摒弃。故选D。
【53题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段中“which is why they tend to be more conscious about their privacy and personal space. They are also freer than previous generations, more eager to explore the world and refuse to be tied down by elders’ rules.这就是为什么他们更关心自己的隐私和个人空间。他们也比前几代人更自由,更渴望探索世界,拒绝受长辈的束缚。”可知,千禧一代更在意自己的隐私和私人空间。他们也比前几代人更自由,更渴望探索世界,拒绝被长辈的规矩束缚。故选B。
【54题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“What they are slowly realizing, however, is we’re not lazy, stubborn or entitled. We just refuse to accept things as they’re given to us.然而,他们慢慢意识到的是,我们并不懒惰、固执或自以为是。我们只是拒绝接受别人给我们的东西。”可知,Lauren Martin认为千禧一代他们有自己看待事物的方式。故选C。
【55题详解】
词义猜测题。根据最后一段中We refuse to do things their way, so they call us entitled. We refuse to sit in cubicles (办公室隔间), so they call us spoiled. We refuse to follow their plans, so they call us stubborn. 我们拒绝按他们的方式做事,所以他们说我们高傲。我们拒绝坐在小隔间里,所以他们说我们被宠坏了。我们拒绝听从他们的计划,所以他们说我们固执。由此推知划线词的意思是“高傲的”,故选A。

阅读表达
When I was ten years old, on a family vacation to Las Vegas, I felt very uncomfortable. I was immediately taken to the hospital. It turned out that I had a big stroke(中风). It made me no longer able to talk, read, write and understand what anyone was saying to me. The entire right side of my body had no feeling.
I stayed in the hospital for months. There I met my favorite doctor. Her last visit was the most important visit of all. She sent me a box as a gift. Inside was a little toy figure of a soldier. She said, “He’s a fighter. You should be like him, David. As long as you try to be him, you can triumph over your illness at last.” She moved her arms as she was fighting to help me understand.
The next few years’ fighting was really hard. I went to lots of speech and physical treatments. I did learn to walk again, but my right arm remained unable to feel anything. Slowly, I learned to talk again. I started with one syllable(音节)-then more. It allowed me to go to a special school. But I couldn’t even spell my own name. Everything was about language and letters. Talking was hard. So was reading. I was sad. But I was still intelligent. Eventually, I decided to let life move on and do something for other stroke survivors.
To help them, I founded a nonprofit organization. I wrote a book on stroke recovery, which has become a guide for stroke survivors and their family members. To help people like me, I also keep speaking at national conferences and hospitals about how to better recover from the disease. Recently, I was invited to speak at a stroke conference to doctors and patients and tell my story.
Today, I can walk, run, and drive. But I still can’t use my right arm. However, there are so many things I can do. The fight to recover is hard. I’ll never, ever give up.

Thank you!
【答案】My fellow students,
Recently, some careless behaviors like wasting food and leaving lights on all day long at school have raised our concern, all of which are bad for the environment. To deal with such problems. I’d like to give the following proposals to promote awareness of green living.
Firstly, always turn off the lights in your classroom upon leaving. Secondly, don’t order more than you need in the school canteen to save every bit of food. After all, the production of food produces a large amount of greenhouse gases. Thirdly, take reusable water bottles along instead of bottled water to reduce plastic waste.
Small acts can make a big difference. So let’s do something to create a beautiful, low carbon campus.
Thank you!
