A．am B．was C．were D．will be 【答案】C 【难度】0.65 【知识点】与现在事实相反的假设 【详解】句意：如果我是你，我会参加志愿者活动。 考查虚拟语气。根据“If I...you, I would take part in the volunteer activity.”可知，此处为虚拟条件句，且是与现在事实相反的假设，此时if从句的谓语动词需用过去式，且be动词一律用were，无论主语人称，故此处需用虚拟语气were。故选C。 2．Yangzhou is best known ________ the Chinese-style gardens. They are all ________ the Chinese style. A．for; in B．as; in C．in; in D．by; of 【答案】A 【难度】0.65 【知识点】介词辨析、for、in、be known for、动词短语、介词短语 【详解】句意：扬州以中式园林最为闻名。它们都是中式风格的。   考查介词辨析。for因为；in在……里面；as作为；by通过；of……的。根据“the Chinese-style gardens”可知扬州以中式园林著名，be best known for“以……最为著名”；in ... style“以……风格”，是固定搭配，“中式风格”in the Chinese style。故选A。 3．She speaks English ________ than any other student in her class.

However, he doesn’t care about all the small forts and only thinks that winning in a war 19 the big ones.” The king asked, “That’s a good thing. What is the problem with that?” She patiently replied. “Just like you lost your food, the king’s impatience to beat the enemies quickly 20 the loss of men in his army. But if you eat less hot food at the side fist and then at the center, you would not have burnt your fingers. 21 , the king should take up the small forts and strengthen his position first.

He was asked how he made decisions and responded, “It’s important to make good decisions. But I spend much less time and energy worrying about making the right decision and much more time and energy ensuring that any decision I make turns out right.” In fact, before we make any decisions, particularly those difficult ones, we’re anxious to focus on identifying the “best” option because of the risk of being “wrong”. But a side effect of that mindset (观念模式) is that we pay too much attention to the moment of choice and lose sight of everything that follows. It’s what happens next that finally determines whether a given decision was “right”. Another aspect of this mindset is that our focus on making the “right” decision can easily lead to paralysis (麻痹), because the options we’re choosing among are so difficult to rank in the first place. How can we definitively determine in advance what career path will be “the best”, or what job offer we should accept? Obviously, we can’t. Focusing on the effort after our decision not only helps us succeed, but also reminds us that we play a role in every outcome. Our control should be in our day-to-day activities rather than in our one-time decision. 23．Which of the following about Scott McNealy is TRUE? A．He doesn’t think making good decisions is very important for him. B．He tries his best to make his decision turn out right in the end. C．He never cares about whether his decision is good or not. D．He only focuses on the process rather than the outcome. 24．Most people feel anxious when making an important decision because they ______. A．worry about the undesired result it may bring about B．can’t find a good coach to give them advice C．have no idea of what to expect D．don’t know what to do next 25．What is the text mainly about? A．Believe in yourself and choose what you want. B．Stop worrying about making the right decision. C．Making the right decision is very important. D．Never help others make the right decision. 【答案】23．B 24．A 25．B 【难度】0.65 【知识点】哲理感悟、议论文 【导语】本文主要介绍了很多人很难做出重大决定，因为他们总是担忧没有出现自己想要的结果，文章告诉我们应关注我们付出的努力。 23．细节理解题。根据“But I spend much less time and energy worrying about making the right decision and much more time and energy ensuring that any decision I make turns out right.”可知他花在担心做出正确决定上的时间和精力要少得多，花在确保他做出的任何决定都是正确的上的时间要多得多，可见他尽力使自己的决定最终成为正确的。故选B。 24．推理判断题。根据“In fact, before we make any decisions, particularly those difficult ones, we’re anxious to focus on identifying the ‘best’ option because of the risk of being ‘wrong’”可知事实上，在我们做出任何决定，特别是那些困难的决定之前，我们都急于集中精力确定“最佳”选择，因为有“错误”的风险，也就是说他们担心它可能带来的不希望的结果。故选A。 25．主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了很多人很难做出重大决定，因为他们总是担忧没有出现自己想要的结果，文章告诉我们应关注我们付出的努力，所以文章是让我们别再担心做出正确的决定了。故选B。 B The Lantern Festival is a traditional festival in China when people light lanterns, set off fireworks (放烟花), eat yuanxiao and enjoy family time. But do you know how this festival started? In the Han Dynasty, there was a man named Dongfang Shuo who worked for the Emperor Wu of Han. One day, Dongfang met a crying maid (哭泣的宫女) named Yuanxiao in the emperor’s garden. He asked her what happened. And the maid said she was sad because she couldn’t see her family. Dongfang promised to help Yuanxiao. He left the garden and went to the street. He started telling people that a big fire would happen on the 15th day of the first lunar month. It was the order of the Jade Emperor. Word spread quickly and people in the city were scared. The Emperor Wu of Han heard of it and asked Dongfang for advice. Dongfang advised him to let Yuanxiao make glutinous rice (糯米) balls for the God of Fire to make him happy. He also advised everyone in the city to put up red lanterns and set off fireworks to create an illusion (错觉) that the city was on fire. Seeing this, the Jade Emperor would not set fire. On the special day, the city was full of people and lanterns. Yuanxiao’s parents were able to meet up with their daughter in the crowd. The city was safe, and the Emperor Wu of Han was happy. He ordered that every year on this day, people should make glutinous rice balls and hang lanterns. From then on, the 15th day of the first lunar month has been called the Lantern Festival or Yuanxiao Jie. Since Yuanxiao cooked the best glutinous rice balls, people call the food yuanxiao or tangyuan. 26．Why did Yuanxiao cry in the emperor’s garden? A．She missed her family. B．She felt hungry and tired. C．She did something wrong. D．She was punished by her master. 27．Which of the following shows the correct order of the events? a. Yuanxiao met up with her parents. b. Dongfang spread the news about the big fire. c. The emperor ordered Yuanxiao to make glutinous rice balls. A．a→b→c B．c→a→b C．b→a→c D．b→c→a 28．Which of the following can best describe Dongfang? A．Honest and clever. B．Clever and helpful. C．Patient and honest. D．Kind and hard-working. 29．What’s the best title for the passage? A．A big fire on a special day B．A delicious food called yuanxiao C．A story behind the Lantern Festival. D．A good person called Dongfang. 【答案】26．A 27．D 28．B 29．C 【难度】0.65 【知识点】传统节日、记叙文 【导语】本文讲述了元宵节的起源传说。 26．细节理解题。根据“And the maid said she was sad because she couldn’t see her family.”可知，宫女元宵因为见不到家人而伤心。故选A。 27．细节理解题。根据“He started telling people that a big fire would happen on the 15th day of the first lunar month.”可知，东方朔散布大火消息；根据“Dongfang advised him to let Yuanxiao make glutinous rice (糯米) balls for the God of Fire to make him happy.”可知，皇帝下令让元宵做糯米丸子；根据“Yuanxiao’s parents were able to meet up with their daughter in the crowd.”可知，元宵与父母团聚。故选D。 28．推理判断题。根据“Dongfang promised to help Yuanxiao.”；“He started telling people that a big fire would happen on the 15th day of the first lunar month.”以及“Dongfang advised him to let Yuanxiao make glutinous rice (糯米) balls for the God of Fire to make him happy.”可知，东方朔设计散布谣言，并想出计策来帮助哭泣的元宵，最终让她与家人团聚，可推知东方朔聪明又乐于助人。故选B。 29．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，文章整体讲述元宵节的起源传说，选项C为最佳标题。故选C。 C What do you think causes the northern lights? Many years ago, people who saw waves of colour dance across the sky at night were afraid. Some people made up stories to explain what today is known as the northern lights, or aurora borealis (北极光). The sun gives off particles (粒子) filled with energy. Large groups of these particles travel together. They are called solar wind. They travel through space at hundreds of miles per second. Even at that speed, it still takes several days to reach Earth. When the solar wind gets close to Earth, it moves toward the North Pole and the South Pole. These particles enter the atmosphere (大气层) near the poles. They run into gases in the atmosphere. The energy that is made in that crash creates lights. When lots of these crashes happen, northern lights can be seen from Earth. Northern lights are harmless, but they can be frightening if you don’t know what they are. As far as scientists can tell, the northern lights do not make any sounds that people can hear. However, if you live where the northern lights appear, you might notice problems with your radio or cell phone when the lights are strong, because the activity messes with the signals (信号) in the atmosphere. The northern lights are amazing, especially the first time you see them. Even at the highest latitudes (纬度), the lowest part of the lights is about 60 miles above Earth.

He was asked how he made decisions and responded, “It’s important to make good decisions. But I spend much less time and energy worrying about making the right decision and much more time and energy ensuring that any decision I make turns out right.” In fact, before we make any decisions, particularly those difficult ones, we’re anxious to focus on identifying the “best” option because of the risk of being “wrong”. But a side effect of that mindset (观念模式) is that we pay too much attention to the moment of choice and lose sight of everything that follows. It’s what happens next that finally determines whether a given decision was “right”. Another aspect of this mindset is that our focus on making the “right” decision can easily lead to paralysis (麻痹), because the options we’re choosing among are so difficult to rank in the first place. How can we definitively determine in advance what career path will be “the best”, or what job offer we should accept? Obviously, we can’t. Focusing on the effort after our decision not only helps us succeed, but also reminds us that we play a role in every outcome. Our control should be in our day-to-day activities rather than in our one-time decision. 23．Which of the following about Scott McNealy is TRUE? A．He doesn’t think making good decisions is very important for him. B．He tries his best to make his decision turn out right in the end. C．He never cares about whether his decision is good or not. D．He only focuses on the process rather than the outcome. 24．Most people feel anxious when making an important decision because they ______. A．worry about the undesired result it may bring about B．can’t find a good coach to give them advice C．have no idea of what to expect D．don’t know what to do next 25．What is the text mainly about? A．Believe in yourself and choose what you want. B．Stop worrying about making the right decision. C．Making the right decision is very important. D．Never help others make the right decision. B The Lantern Festival is a traditional festival in China when people light lanterns, set off fireworks (放烟花), eat yuanxiao and enjoy family time. But do you know how this festival started? In the Han Dynasty, there was a man named Dongfang Shuo who worked for the Emperor Wu of Han. One day, Dongfang met a crying maid (哭泣的宫女) named Yuanxiao in the emperor’s garden. He asked her what happened. And the maid said she was sad because she couldn’t see her family. Dongfang promised to help Yuanxiao. He left the garden and went to the street. He started telling people that a big fire would happen on the 15th day of the first lunar month. It was the order of the Jade Emperor. Word spread quickly and people in the city were scared. The Emperor Wu of Han heard of it and asked Dongfang for advice. Dongfang advised him to let Yuanxiao make glutinous rice (糯米) balls for the God of Fire to make him happy. He also advised everyone in the city to put up red lanterns and set off fireworks to create an illusion (错觉) that the city was on fire. Seeing this, the Jade Emperor would not set fire. On the special day, the city was full of people and lanterns. Yuanxiao’s parents were able to meet up with their daughter in the crowd. The city was safe, and the Emperor Wu of Han was happy. He ordered that every year on this day, people should make glutinous rice balls and hang lanterns. From then on, the 15th day of the first lunar month has been called the Lantern Festival or Yuanxiao Jie. Since Yuanxiao cooked the best glutinous rice balls, people call the food yuanxiao or tangyuan. 26．Why did Yuanxiao cry in the emperor’s garden? A．She missed her family. B．She felt hungry and tired. C．She did something wrong. D．She was punished by her master. 27．Which of the following shows the correct order of the events? a. Yuanxiao met up with her parents. b. Dongfang spread the news about the big fire. c. The emperor ordered Yuanxiao to make glutinous rice balls. A．a→b→c B．c→a→b C．b→a→c D．b→c→a 28．Which of the following can best describe Dongfang?

Many years ago, people who saw waves of colour dance across the sky at night were afraid. Some people made up stories to explain what today is known as the northern lights, or aurora borealis (北极光). The sun gives off particles (粒子) filled with energy. Large groups of these particles travel together. They are called solar wind. They travel through space at hundreds of miles per second. Even at that speed, it still takes several days to reach Earth. When the solar wind gets close to Earth, it moves toward the North Pole and the South Pole. These particles enter the atmosphere (大气层) near the poles. They run into gases in the atmosphere. The energy that is made in that crash creates lights. When lots of these crashes happen, northern lights can be seen from Earth. Northern lights are harmless, but they can be frightening if you don’t know what they are. As far as scientists can tell, the northern lights do not make any sounds that people can hear. However, if you live where the northern lights appear, you might notice problems with your radio or cell phone when the lights are strong, because the activity messes with the signals (信号) in the atmosphere. The northern lights are amazing, especially the first time you see them. Even at the highest latitudes (纬度), the lowest part of the lights is about 60 miles above Earth. They can reach up to 600 miles into the atmosphere. Imagine what a light show you would see if you were an astronaut looking down on the northern lights from space. 30．Where is this passage most likely from? A．A travel guide. B．A story book. C．A news report. D．A science magazine. 31．How are the northern lights formed? A．Solar wind hits air gases. B．Sun sends out energy particles. C．Particles travel fast in space. D．Particles move to Earth’s poles. 32．What problem may the northern lights bring? A．They may use up energy high above Earth. B．They may cause trouble for cell phone signals. C．They may harm the people living near the poles. D．They may stop astronauts from seeing Earth clearly. 33．How does the writer organize the information in the passage? A．By comparing past and present views. B．By describing problems and solutions. C．By telling stories from different cultures. D．By explaining causes and effects step by step. D The Chinese pingfeng (folding screen) is an ancient invention and traditional Chinese furniture. Its earliest common use dates from the Han Dynasty. The term “pingfeng” means protection from wind, showing its purpose at the very beginning. As time passes, it has been made into different sizes with colourful paintings. Dragous often appear on screens. It’s a symbol of light, growth and life-giving water. It also stands for nobility (尊贵) and power. The peacock (孔雀), a beautiful bird, can be seen on screens. too. It’s a symbol of everlasting (永恒的) life. Beautiful flowers, which mean wealth and good luck, are also chosen as a popular design of the pingfeng. All the designs carry people’s beautiful wishes. Behind the pingfeng lies an interesting story. In the past, the unmarried daughter of a rich family was not supposed to see or be seen by men except her father, brothers or very close male cousins. When an admirer paid a visit, however, she might take a secret look at him from a screen behind which she would be completely hidden. Her father would discuss poems with the young man and ask him to create one. If the daughter and her father were pleased with the young man’s poem and his looks, she might agree to accept him as her husband. Today the pingfeng is back in fashion for its beauty and its practical use as furniture. Acting as a moving wall or divider, it can be the perfect match for modern sofas and walls, which adds style to them. 34．The peacock on pingfeng stands for ________.

He was asked how he made decisions and responded, “It’s important to make good decisions. But I spend much less time and energy worrying about making the right decision and much more time and energy ensuring that any decision I make turns out right.” In fact, before we make any decisions, particularly those difficult ones, we’re anxious to focus on identifying the “best” option because of the risk of being “wrong”. But a side effect of that mindset (观念模式) is that we pay too much attention to the moment of choice and lose sight of everything that follows. It’s what happens next that finally determines whether a given decision was “right”. Another aspect of this mindset is that our focus on making the “right” decision can easily lead to paralysis (麻痹), because the options we’re choosing among are so difficult to rank in the first place. How can we definitively determine in advance what career path will be “the best”, or what job offer we should accept? Obviously, we can’t. Focusing on the effort after our decision not only helps us succeed, but also reminds us that we play a role in every outcome. Our control should be in our day-to-day activities rather than in our one-time decision. 23．Which of the following about Scott McNealy is TRUE? A．He doesn’t think making good decisions is very important for him. B．He tries his best to make his decision turn out right in the end. C．He never cares about whether his decision is good or not. D．He only focuses on the process rather than the outcome. 24．Most people feel anxious when making an important decision because they ______. A．worry about the undesired result it may bring about B．can’t find a good coach to give them advice C．have no idea of what to expect D．don’t know what to do next 25．What is the text mainly about? A．Believe in yourself and choose what you want. B．Stop worrying about making the right decision. C．Making the right decision is very important. D．Never help others make the right decision. B The Lantern Festival is a traditional festival in China when people light lanterns, set off fireworks (放烟花), eat yuanxiao and enjoy family time. But do you know how this festival started? In the Han Dynasty, there was a man named Dongfang Shuo who worked for the Emperor Wu of Han. One day, Dongfang met a crying maid (哭泣的宫女) named Yuanxiao in the emperor’s garden. He asked her what happened. And the maid said she was sad because she couldn’t see her family. Dongfang promised to help Yuanxiao. He left the garden and went to the street. He started telling people that a big fire would happen on the 15th day of the first lunar month. It was the order of the Jade Emperor. Word spread quickly and people in the city were scared. The Emperor Wu of Han heard of it and asked Dongfang for advice. Dongfang advised him to let Yuanxiao make glutinous rice (糯米) balls for the God of Fire to make him happy. He also advised everyone in the city to put up red lanterns and set off fireworks to create an illusion (错觉) that the city was on fire. Seeing this, the Jade Emperor would not set fire. On the special day, the city was full of people and lanterns. Yuanxiao’s parents were able to meet up with their daughter in the crowd. The city was safe, and the Emperor Wu of Han was happy. He ordered that every year on this day, people should make glutinous rice balls and hang lanterns. From then on, the 15th day of the first lunar month has been called the Lantern Festival or Yuanxiao Jie. Since Yuanxiao cooked the best glutinous rice balls, people call the food yuanxiao or tangyuan. 26．Why did Yuanxiao cry in the emperor’s garden? A．She missed her family. B．She felt hungry and tired. C．She did something wrong. D．She was punished by her master. 27．Which of the following shows the correct order of the events? a. Yuanxiao met up with her parents. b. Dongfang spread the news about the big fire. c. The emperor ordered Yuanxiao to make glutinous rice balls. A．a→b→c B．c→a→b C．b→a→c D．b→c→a 28．Which of the following can best describe Dongfang? A．Honest and clever. B．Clever and helpful. C．Patient and honest. D．Kind and hard-working. 29．What’s the best title for the passage? A．A big fire on a special day B．A delicious food called yuanxiao C．A story behind the Lantern Festival. D．A good person called Dongfang. C What do you think causes the northern lights? Many years ago, people who saw waves of colour dance across the sky at night were afraid. Some people made up stories to explain what today is known as the northern lights, or aurora borealis (北极光). The sun gives off particles (粒子) filled with energy. Large groups of these particles travel together. They are called solar wind. They travel through space at hundreds of miles per second. Even at that speed, it still takes several days to reach Earth. When the solar wind gets close to Earth, it moves toward the North Pole and the South Pole. These particles enter the atmosphere (大气层) near the poles. They run into gases in the atmosphere. The energy that is made in that crash creates lights. When lots of these crashes happen, northern lights can be seen from Earth. Northern lights are harmless, but they can be frightening if you don’t know what they are. As far as scientists can tell, the northern lights do not make any sounds that people can hear. However, if you live where the northern lights appear, you might notice problems with your radio or cell phone when the lights are strong, because the activity messes with the signals (信号) in the atmosphere. The northern lights are amazing, especially the first time you see them. Even at the highest latitudes (纬度), the lowest part of the lights is about 60 miles above Earth. They can reach up to 600 miles into the atmosphere. Imagine what a light show you would see if you were an astronaut looking down on the northern lights from space. 30．Where is this passage most likely from? A．A travel guide. B．A story book. C．A news report. D．A science magazine. 31．How are the northern lights formed? A．Solar wind hits air gases. B．Sun sends out energy particles. C．Particles travel fast in space. D．Particles move to Earth’s poles. 32．What problem may the northern lights bring? A．They may use up energy high above Earth. B．They may cause trouble for cell phone signals. C．They may harm the people living near the poles. D．They may stop astronauts from seeing Earth clearly. 33．How does the writer organize the information in the passage? A．By comparing past and present views. B．By describing problems and solutions. C．By telling stories from different cultures. D．By explaining causes and effects step by step. D The Chinese pingfeng (folding screen) is an ancient invention and traditional Chinese furniture. Its earliest common use dates from the Han Dynasty. The term “pingfeng” means protection from wind, showing its purpose at the very beginning. As time passes, it has been made into different sizes with colourful paintings. Dragous often appear on screens. It’s a symbol of light, growth and life-giving water. It also stands for nobility (尊贵) and power. The peacock (孔雀), a beautiful bird, can be seen on screens. too. It’s a symbol of everlasting (永恒的) life. Beautiful flowers, which mean wealth and good luck, are also chosen as a popular design of the pingfeng. All the designs carry people’s beautiful wishes. Behind the pingfeng lies an interesting story. In the past, the unmarried daughter of a rich family was not supposed to see or be seen by men except her father, brothers or very close male cousins. When an admirer paid a visit, however, she might take a secret look at him from a screen behind which she would be completely hidden. Her father would discuss poems with the young man and ask him to create one. If the daughter and her father were pleased with the young man’s poem and his looks, she might agree to accept him as her husband. Today the pingfeng is back in fashion for its beauty and its practical use as furniture. Acting as a moving wall or divider, it can be the perfect match for modern sofas and walls, which adds style to them. 34．The peacock on pingfeng stands for ________. A．light and growth B．wealth and good luck C．everlasting life D．power 35．How does the third paragraph introduce pingfeng? A．By telling a story. B．By listing numbers. C．By giving an example. D．By asking a question. 36．What can we know about pingfeng? A．It was first used in Qing Dynasty. B．Its main purpose is to protect people from the rain. C．It can be made into different sizes with colourful paintings. D．It becomes popular and is used as furniture only because of its beauty. 四、还原信息(共4小题；每小题1.5分，满分6分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出四个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Do you like to listen to music when exercising?
