【6题详解】
句意:陆游深深地爱着他的祖国。
上文提到“Lu You loved his homeland”,此处需要一个副词来修饰“loved”,表达爱的程度。deeply“深深地”符合语境,表示他对祖国有深厚的感情。suddenly“突然地”、comfortably“舒适地”、lively“活泼地”均不符合语境。

上文提到南宋受到金朝的威胁,此处描述陆游作为官员的态度,他主张与金朝作战。fight“作战”符合语境。catch“抓住”、trust“信任”、pay“支付”均与抗金无关。
【8题详解】
句意:他们一直告诉皇帝陆游每天闲逛,什么也不做。
上文提到其他官员想要放弃抗金,并诬陷陆游,此处描述他们对陆游的诬陷内容,即他什么也不做。did nothing“什么也不做”符合语境。everything“每件事”、something“某事”、anything“任何事”均不符合诬陷的语境。

【12题详解】
句意:在山脚下走了一圈后,他发现自己来到了一大片农田前。
下文提到“lies another village”,结合诗句“山重水复疑无路”,可以推断此处描述的是山脚下的情景。hill“山”符合语境。lake“湖”、river“河”、park“公园”均与诗句描述不符。

When I met Liebchen at the local animal shelter, I fell in love with him at first sight. He is an outgoing and energetic orange cat. After I brought him home, Liebchen started meowing at the door. He was trying to tell me that he wanted to go outside and explore.
Liebchen went on his first hike when he was just ten weeks old. Now he goes on adventures everywhere with me. When we go out, I usually make him wear goggles. This helps protect him from sunburn and snow blindness (雪盲症). On cold winter days, I also put a jacket on him if he needs it.
I do a lot of things with Liebchen. Of all these things, he likes hiking the most. He loves exploring forests, too. There he often jumps on and off rocks and fallen trees. And he enjoys smelling new places. He becomes very excited whenever he finds a new plant, insect or other animals. Liebchen also loves to ski. He usually rides on my shoulders and sticks his face into the wind.
My cat brings a smile to the face of everyone he meets. He is good at making friends with people and even dogs. If you meet Liebchen, he will quickly snuggle up to you.
Don’t be afraid; hear him out as he meows about his adventurous day!
19. Why does the writer make Liebchen wear goggles when going out?
A. To help him run faster on snowy days.
B. To stop him from losing his way in forests.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了作者和自己的猫Liebchen之间的故事,包括Liebchen的喜好、活动以及它友好勇敢的性格等。
【19题详解】
第二段提到:“This helps protect him from sunburn and snow blindness (雪盲症).”,这直接说明作者让Liebchen出门戴护目镜是为了保护它免受晒伤和雪盲症的伤害。
【20题详解】
第三段描述了Liebchen的喜好:“Of all these things, he likes hiking the most. He loves exploring forests, too.”以及第四段它善于交朋友:“He is good at making friends with people and even dogs.”结合前文对它外出探索的描述,可以知道它是一只勇敢且友好、热爱户外的猫。
【21题详解】
文章主要围绕作者和猫Liebchen一起进行的各种冒险活动展开,如徒步旅行、滑雪等,所以作者写这篇文章的目的是分享他和猫Liebchen的冒险生活。
C
Younger, Faster Learners
Are children smarter than adults? The answer is “yes” when it comes to learning new things. A new study shows that kids learn new knowledge and skills faster than adults.
The study was carried out by scientists from the U. S. A. and Germany. In the study, some kids and adults learned the same lessons of new information and skills. The children were 8 to 11 years old. And the adults were 18 to 35 years old. The scientists looked at their GABA (γ-氨基丁酸) levels before, during and after these lessons. GABA is a chemical that our brains produce. It helps us remember newly learned information.
According to the study, the GABA levels in the children’s brains increased quickly during the lessons. This increase lasted for several minutes after the lessons were over. In the adults, however, there was no change in their GABA levels during or after the lessons.
The scientists then tested the effects of their learning. The results found that the children did learn more efficiently (有效率地) . They learned more items in the same amount of time than the adults.
This study encourages people to give children more chances to learn new skills. It could also be used to help adults learn faster. “We might develop a new technology, for example, to increase the amount of GABA in the adult brain,” said one of the scientists.
22. What is GABA according to the passage?
A. A new technology to help adults learn faster.
B. A kind of lesson for kids and adults to learn new skills.
C. A study carried out by American and German scientists.
D. A chemical that the brain produces to help remember new information.
23. What did the scientists test in the study?
A. The size of the brain. B. The speed of learning.
C. The levels of GABA. D. The amount of information.
24. What does the new study in the article show?
A. Children learn new things faster than adults. B. Children have better memories than adults.
C. Children produce more GABA than adults. D. Children remember everything they learn.
25. If scientists successfully raise the GABA levels in an adult’s brain, what will most probably happen?
A. The adult will learn more slowly than children.
B. The adult’s brain will stop producing other chemicals.
C. The adult’s GABA levels will stay the same after class.
D. The adult may be able to learn new things more efficiently.
【答案】22. D 23. C 24. A 25. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了一项研究表明孩子学习新知识新技能比成年人更快,并阐述了研究过程、结果以及该研究带来的启示。
【22题详解】
根据文章第2段“GABA is a chemical that our brains produce. It helps us remember newly learned information.”可知GABA是我们大脑产生的一种化学物质,它帮助我们记住新学到的信息。故选D。
【23题详解】
根据文章第2段“The scientists looked at their GABA (γ-氨基丁酸) levels before, during and after these lessons.”可知科学家在课程前后及过程中观察了他们GABA的水平,所以科学家在研究中测试了GABA的水平。故选C。
【24题详解】
根据文章第1段“A new study shows that kids learn new knowledge and skills faster than adults.”可知文章中的新研究表明孩子们学习新事物比成年人更快。故选A。
【25题详解】
根据文章最后一段“We might develop a new technology, for example, to increase the amount of GABA in the adult brain”以及“It could also be used to help adults learn faster.”可知如果能提高成年人大脑中GABA的量,可能会帮助成年人更快地学习,即成年人可能能够更有效地学习新事物。故选D。

六、句型 (共15小题,每小题1分,满分15分)
A) 根据所给单词、短语及标点符号提示连词成句,使句子的意思完整、正确。
Example
gets up He early in the morning
He gets up early in the morning.
41. as, was, rising, the sun, I, woke up
__________________________________________.
【答案】I woke up as the sun was rising
【解析】
【详解】根据所给单词及标点符号(句号)可知,本句为陈述句,表示“太阳升起时我醒了”。I作主语,woke up为动词短语作谓语,as作时间状语连接词,表示“当……的时候”,the sun为从句主语,was rising为从句谓语,时态为过去进行时。

__________________________________________.
【答案】Thousands of tourists from home and abroad come to Luoyang to admire peonies
【解析】
【详解】根据所给标点可知应用陈述句的形式。分析所给单词,“Thousands of”是数量词短语,表示“成千上万的”,修饰名词“tourists”(游客),作句子的主语;“from home and abroad”是介词短语,表示“来自国内外”,作后置定语修饰“tourists”;“come to”是动词短语,表示“来到”,作句子的谓语;“Luoyang”是名词,表示“洛阳”,作“come to”的宾语;“to admire peonies”是动词不定式短语,表示“来欣赏牡丹”,作目的状语,说明游客来到洛阳的目的。
43. a, are, visit, ancient buildings, worth, well, The, and, mountains, fantastic
__________________________________________
【答案】The mountains are fantastic and ancient buildings are well worth a visit.
【解析】
【详解】根据题目所给单词,其中The mountains是主语,意为“山脉”;are是系动词,意为“是”;fantastic是表语,意为“极好的”;and是并列连词,意为“和”;ancient buildings是并列主语,意为“古建筑”;are well worth是系表结构,意为“很值得”;a visit是宾语,意为“参观”。本句描述的是客观事实,故时态用一般现在时。故填The mountains are fantastic and ancient buildings are well worth a visit.

__________________________________________.
【答案】A trip to New York would not be complete without a walk through Central Park.

七、阅读填空 (共14小题;71-76题每小题1分,77题2分;78-84题每小题1分,满分15分)

阅读短文,根据所读内容,在文章后的空格里填入最恰当的内容。
注意:1-6题每个空格只填1个单词,7题词数不限。
Sustainable travel is an idea that many experts (专家) within the travel industry agree on. To continue enjoying this wonderful world, both travelers and the travel industry must learn to be more sustainable in actions. A report reads: “At this important moment in climate history, if there is no action, by 2040 many of the world’s favorite places will be forced to appear only online.”
What is sustainable travel? It is about traveling in a way that reduces bad influences on the climate and environment, as well as the communities and people we visit. For many years, the attention around sustainable travel was based on reducing environmental pollution. While it is still important, there is now an even more pressing issue. With the growth of personal market, that means local communities aren’t benefiting (受益) much from tourism as they should, change is needed more than ever.
To deal with the problem, we need to rethink how we see travel. Instead of just focusing on our own experiences, we should think about the needs of our hosts alongside our hopes for a fun-filled holiday. All it takes is a little thoughtful planning.
One of the most effective ways you can make a difference when traveling is to reduce your carbon footprint (碳足迹) . Wherever you choose to go, your transport will likely cause the majority of your CO2 emissions. By simple math, that means taking shorter trips and in a way that uses less fuel (燃料) will make a big difference. And by doing so, you can visit more places and benefit more communities and people.
And traveling out of peak season can be a more enriching experience. You’ll avoid the crowds at popular sights and find lower prices for hotels, restaurants and activities. For local people who work in tourism and are seasonal workers, the money they make outside of busy periods is much valued and needed.
Another useful way to be more sustainable is to stay in community-owned accommodation rather than chain hotels. It means the money you spend goes directly to local people who are serving you and need it most.
Sustainable travel
Why is it important?
If travelers and the travel industry continue ____56____ little about the environment, we may one day lose the opportunity to enjoy the world’s beauty in person.
What is it?
It is about reducing harm to the environment and bringing more benefits to ____57____ and people.
What can we do?
* Small ____58____ in travel plans can help make tourism more sustainable.
* Travel ____59____ distances and choose low-carbon transportation to reduce CO2 emissions.
*Avoid traveling during the busy season to get more fun and ____60____ less.
*Traveling out of peak season also helps seasonal workers support themselves better.
*Staying in community-owned accommodation makes sure your money ____61____ local people directly.
What else can you do to travel in a more sustainable way?
_______________________62_______________________
【答案】56. caring
57. communities
58. changes##change
59. shorter
60. spend##pay
61. reaches
62. Choose greener transport./Avoid using plastic bags./Refuse to watch animal shows./Reduce waste... (答案不唯一)
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了可持续旅行的重要性,解释了什么是可持续旅行,并从多个方面给出了让旅行更具可持续性的具体做法。
【56题详解】
第一段中“To continue enjoying this wonderful world, both travelers and the travel industry must learn to be more sustainable in actions.”以及“if there is no action, by 2040 many of the world’s favorite places will be forced to appear only online.”,表明如果旅行者和旅游业在环境方面继续不采取行动(少关心环境),可能有一天会失去亲自欣赏世界美景的机会。题干中“continue”后接动词-ing 形式,“care little about”都表示“在……方面几乎不关心”,所以第一空应填“caring”。
【57题详解】
第二段“It is about traveling in a way that reduces bad influences on the climate and environment, as well as the communities and people we visit.”明确说明了可持续旅行是对环境和我们访问的社区及人们减少伤害,所以第二空应填“communities”。
【58题详解】
第三段“To deal with the problem, we need to rethink how we see travel. All it takes is a little thoughtful planning.”以及第四段“One of the most effective ways you can make a difference when traveling is to reduce your carbon footprint (碳足迹) .”等内容表明旅行计划中的一些小改变就能让旅游业更具可持续性,“Small”后接名词复数,“change”的复数形式“changes”或不可数名词形式符合语境,所以第三空应填“changes/change”。
【59题详解】
第四段“By simple math, that means taking shorter trips and in a way that uses less fuel (燃料) will make a big difference.”指出更短的旅行和使用更少燃料的方式能减少二氧化碳排放,所以第四空应填“shorter”。
【60题详解】
第五段“You’ll avoid the crowds at popular sights and find lower prices for hotels, restaurants and activities.”说明在淡季旅行能避开人群,还能在酒店、餐厅和活动方面找到更低的价格,也就是花费更少,“and”连接两个并列的动词原形,“spend/pay”符合语境,所以第五空应填“spend/pay”。
【61题详解】
第六段“It means the money you spend goes directly to local people who are serving you and need it most.”表明住在社区所有的住宿处能确保钱直接流向当地人,“make sure”后接宾语从句,从句主语“your money”是第三人称单数,一般现在时中动词用第三人称单数形式,“reach”的第三人称单数形式“reaches”符合语境,所以第六空应填“reaches”。
【62题详解】
题目问还有什么能让旅行更具可持续性,答案不唯一,只要是合理可行的可持续旅行做法即可,如“Choose greener transport./Avoid using plastic bags./Refuse to watch animal shows./Reduce waste... ”(选择绿色出行、避免使用塑料袋、拒绝观看动物表演、减少浪费)等。
根据短文及首字母提示,填写所缺单词。注意:每个空格只填1个单词。

“Hello, Tom! You’ve got to work today, hey?” Tom turned around suddenly. “Why, it’s you, Ben! I didn’t notice.” “Are you going to swim? I am! But you have to work—how u____67____!” Tom said, “Work? I like this work. Does a boy get a chance to paint a fence every day?” That gave the thing a new turn. Ben ate his apple, watching Tom. Tom painted carefully, like an a____68____. Ben soon said, “Tom, let me paint a little!” Tom refused at first, but finally agreed.
Ben worked happily, while Tom sat in the shade, eating Ben’s apple. Before long, every boy in the village came to laugh, b____69____ stayed to paint the fence. Tom had tricked them all. By the afternoon, the fence was whitewashed three times, and Tom had got many toys and treasures.

When I met Liebchen at the local animal shelter, I fell in love with him at first sight. He is an outgoing and energetic orange cat. After I brought him home, Liebchen started meowing at the door. He was trying to tell me that he wanted to go outside and explore.
Liebchen went on his first hike when he was just ten weeks old. Now he goes on adventures everywhere with me. When we go out, I usually make him wear goggles. This helps protect him from sunburn and snow blindness (雪盲症). On cold winter days, I also put a jacket on him if he needs it.
I do a lot of things with Liebchen. Of all these things, he likes hiking the most. He loves exploring forests, too. There he often jumps on and off rocks and fallen trees. And he enjoys smelling new places. He becomes very excited whenever he finds a new plant, insect or other animals. Liebchen also loves to ski. He usually rides on my shoulders and sticks his face into the wind.
My cat brings a smile to the face of everyone he meets. He is good at making friends with people and even dogs. If you meet Liebchen, he will quickly snuggle up to you.
Don’t be afraid; hear him out as he meows about his adventurous day!
19. Why does the writer make Liebchen wear goggles when going out?

Younger, Faster Learners
Are children smarter than adults? The answer is “yes” when it comes to learning new things. A new study shows that kids learn new knowledge and skills faster than adults.
The study was carried out by scientists from the U. S. A. and Germany. In the study, some kids and adults learned the same lessons of new information and skills. The children were 8 to 11 years old. And the adults were 18 to 35 years old. The scientists looked at their GABA (γ-氨基丁酸) levels before, during and after these lessons. GABA is a chemical that our brains produce. It helps us remember newly learned information.
According to the study, the GABA levels in the children’s brains increased quickly during the lessons. This increase lasted for several minutes after the lessons were over. In the adults, however, there was no change in their GABA levels during or after the lessons.
The scientists then tested the effects of their learning. The results found that the children did learn more efficiently (有效率地) . They learned more items in the same amount of time than the adults.
This study encourages people to give children more chances to learn new skills. It could also be used to help adults learn faster. “We might develop a new technology, for example, to increase the amount of GABA in the adult brain,” said one of the scientists.
22. What is GABA according to the passage?
A. A new technology to help adults learn faster.
B. A kind of lesson for kids and adults to learn new skills.
C. A study carried out by American and German scientists.
D. A chemical that the brain produces to help remember new information.
23. What did the scientists test in the study?

Sustainable travel is an idea that many experts (专家) within the travel industry agree on. To continue enjoying this wonderful world, both travelers and the travel industry must learn to be more sustainable in actions. A report reads: “At this important moment in climate history, if there is no action, by 2040 many of the world’s favorite places will be forced to appear only online.”
What is sustainable travel? It is about traveling in a way that reduces bad influences on the climate and environment, as well as the communities and people we visit. For many years, the attention around sustainable travel was based on reducing environmental pollution. While it is still important, there is now an even more pressing issue. With the growth of personal market, that means local communities aren’t benefiting (受益) much from tourism as they should, change is needed more than ever.
To deal with the problem, we need to rethink how we see travel. Instead of just focusing on our own experiences, we should think about the needs of our hosts alongside our hopes for a fun-filled holiday. All it takes is a little thoughtful planning.
One of the most effective ways you can make a difference when traveling is to reduce your carbon footprint (碳足迹) . Wherever you choose to go, your transport will likely cause the majority of your CO2 emissions. By simple math, that means taking shorter trips and in a way that uses less fuel (燃料) will make a big difference. And by doing so, you can visit more places and benefit more communities and people.
And traveling out of peak season can be a more enriching experience. You’ll avoid the crowds at popular sights and find lower prices for hotels, restaurants and activities. For local people who work in tourism and are seasonal workers, the money they make outside of busy periods is much valued and needed.
Another useful way to be more sustainable is to stay in community-owned accommodation rather than chain hotels. It means the money you spend goes directly to local people who are serving you and need it most.

If travelers and the travel industry continue ____56____ little about the environment, we may one day lose the opportunity to enjoy the world’s beauty in person.

What can we do?
