For a long time, we have thought fish are forgetful and they will never remember past experiences. However, a new scientific study shows that this old idea is completely wrong. According to a new study published in the famous science journal Nature, fish are much smarter than we imagine. Some kinds of fish have special DNA in their bodies. Surprisingly, this special genetic (遗传的) structure helps them form clearer and longer-lasting memories than human beings. More amazingly, their precious memories can be passed down to their young through genes. This amazing ability plays an important role in fish’s survival in nature. It helps fish stay away from dangers and live longer. Here is a clear example. If parent fish once suffered from hunger in a special water environment, their baby fish will naturally remember this dangerous situation after birth. The young fish will make full preparations ahead of time to avoid hunger and keep safe. In fact, fish can remember dangerous places, food sources (来源) and useful skills for months. Next time when your friends talk about fish’s seven-second memory, you can share this interesting science fact with them. It is really surprising that such small sea creatures have such powerful memories. 5. For a long time, what do people think of fish? A. They are smart. B. They are special. C. They are forgetful. D. They are interesting. 6. What does the underlined word “precious” mean in Paragraph 2? A. valuable B. terrible C. dangerous D. countable 7. What will happen when parent fish suffers from hunger in one place? A. They will tell their baby fish to remember this place. B. The parent fish will remember this dangerous place. C. Their baby fish will avoid hunger in this place after birth. D. Their baby fish will naturally forget this dangerous place. 8. According to the text, fish can remember ________ for months. A. a kind of food B. a good friend C. useful tools D. unsafe places 【答案】5. C 6. A 7. C 8. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要纠正“鱼的记忆只有7秒”的错误说法，介绍科学研究发现鱼类拥有长久记忆，记忆还可通过基因遗传给后代，帮助鱼类生存。 【5题详解】 根据文章第一段“For a long time, we think fish are forgetful and they will never remember past experiences.”可知，长久以来人们认为鱼很健忘。 【6题详解】 根据文章第二段“this special genetic structure helps them form clearer and longer-lasting memories than human beings. More amazingly, their precious memories can be passed down to their young through genes.”可知，这种记忆很珍贵、很有价值，precious和valuable含义相近。 【7题详解】 根据文章第三段“If parent fish once suffered from hunger in a special water environment, their baby fish will naturally remember this dangerous situation after birth. The young fish will make full preparations ahead of time to avoid hunger and keep safe.”可知，幼鱼出生后会避开此处以免挨饿。 【8题详解】 根据文章第四段“In fact, fish can remember dangerous places, food sources (来源) and useful skills for months.”可知，鱼可以记住危险的地方长达数月。 C Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses. Tea drinking started in China and India over 4,000 years ago, around 2700 BC. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with sleep, stress, or losing weight. However, most people in tea-drinking countries see tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in countries such as China is a part of the culture. In China, tea is always present when people meet. Whether in someone’s home or a business, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. This is a time when tea and other dishes are served in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends or co-workers. Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1,000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel more energetic. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the workday. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends. However, many people at the coffee shop drink coffee while working on their computers. Is tea or coffee more common in your country? Between the two, which do you like to drink more? 9. From the text, we know that tea drinking has lasted for ________. A. over 1,000 years B. over 2,700 years C. more than 4,000 years D. more than 5,000 years 10. What do most people mainly drink coffee for? A. Getting energized. B. Keeping healthy. C. Relaxing themselves. D. Visiting coffee shops. 11. One thing tea and coffee have in common is that they act as ________. A. a drink for losing weight B. a present for meeting people C. a tool for welcoming some foreign visitors D. a bridge for communication between people 12. What’s the best title (标题) for the text? A. A way of relaxing B. The most popular drink C. History of two different drinks D. Different cultures of tea and coffee 【答案】9. C 10. A 11. D 12. D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了茶和咖啡的历史起源、制作原料、饮用目的以及在各国文化中的不同用途。 【9题详解】 根据文章第二段第一句“Tea drinking started in China and India over 4,000 years ago, …”可知，饮茶历史始于4000多年前。 【10题详解】 根据文章第三段第三、四、五句“Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel more energetic. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going.”可知，大多数人喝咖啡是为了获得能量。 【11题详解】 根据第二段提到茶在人们见面时提供，是欢迎的方式，也是与朋友放松的方式；第三段提到有些人去咖啡店是为了“meet and talk with friends”。由此可见，两者的共同点是都能促进人与人之间的交流与沟通。 【12题详解】 通读全文可知，文章对比了茶和咖啡的历史起源、制作原料、饮用目的以及在各国文化中的不同用途。选项D“茶和咖啡的不同文化”最能概括全文主旨。 D Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for inviting me to speak to you about Blue Sky Rescue today. Let me begin with my own story. Back in 2008, I was hiking in the mountains with some friends when one of them fell and got a bad head injury. We had to find help quickly, so we called an emergency (紧急情况) number. It was already dark, and we couldn’t even see where we were. After some time, we heard dogs barking and the voices of the Blue Sky Rescue team. I nearly started crying. We were so thankful that they found us! I’ve never forgotten that day. Since then, I’ve wanted to help others too. I signed up with Blue Sky Rescue in 2009, and I’ve been a volunteer ever since. We’ve been to schools and other communities to teach children and adults how to stay safe and prepare for the worst. We’ve provided medical aid and searched for missing people after natural disasters. Working as a volunteer has taught me many practical life-saving skills. It has also helped me understand the power of teamwork because it’s the key to successful rescues. Most of all, being a volunteer has taught me the value of every life. The work is difficult. It’s voluntary, so we aren’t paid. We often go without food or sleep. But our primary goal has always been to save as many people as we can. I’m just an ordinary person, but I’ll rush into danger. To the people we’ve saved and their loved ones, I know we’re their heroes. And that makes everything we do worth it. We want to do even more, but we can’t do it all alone. Will you join us as a volunteer? Together we can make a difference! 13. Why did the writer tell his own story in the second paragraph? A. To introduce himself. B. To become a volunteer. C. To tell the reason why he joined Blue Sky Rescue. D. To remind people of calling an emergency number. 14. What does the underlined word “It” refer to in Paragraph 4? A. Working as a volunteer. B. Hiking in the mountains. C. Teaching practical life-saving skills. D. Searching for missing people. 15. From the text, we can infer (推断) that ________. A. the writer is paid for his work B. the writer wants to be a hero C. some voluntary work is dangerous D. voluntary work is the key to success 16. How does the writer feel as a volunteer? A. Bored. B. Proud. C. Lonely. D. Successful. 【答案】13. C 14. A 15. C 16. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇演讲稿，作者分享了自己曾受蓝天救援队救助的经历，并讲述了自己成为志愿者后参与救援工作的收获和感悟，最后呼吁听众加入蓝天救援队。 【13题详解】 根据第二段讲述作者被救援的经历，以及第三段开头“I’ve never forgotten that day. Since then, I’ve wanted to help others too. I signed up with Blue Sky Rescue in 2009”可知，作者讲述这个故事是为了说明他加入救援队的原因。 【14题详解】 根据第四段第一句“Working as a volunteer has taught me many practical life-saving skills.”以及紧接着的句子“It has also helped me understand the power of teamwork”可知，代词“It”指代的是前文提到的“Working as a volunteer”。 【15题详解】 根据第五段中“I’m just an ordinary person, but I’ll rush into danger.”可知，志愿救援工作有时是危险的。 【16题详解】 根据第五段中“To the people we’ve saved and their loved ones, I know we’re their heroes. And that makes everything we do worth it.”可知，作者虽然工作辛苦，但认为很有意义，内心感到很自豪。 第二节 阅读短文，从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余选项。 Most kids in Britain have pet bears. This animal is both furry (毛茸茸的) and friendly. But it cannot move or make any noise. ____17____ Most teddies are in the shape of a small bear. They are usually brown and stuffed (填充) with cotton. Kids love them very much. Paddington Bear is one of the most famous teddy bears in the world. Yet there are many types. Do you know Winnie the Pooh?

It’s a popular present for lovers, usually on Valentine’s Day. In the UK it is popular for a newborn baby to get a teddy bear as their first gift. The day I was born, my grandmother handed me a teddy bear. She made it herself. That makes him the same age as me! I took him everywhere I went, holding his arm at nighttime and falling asleep with him. And I still have that bear with me today. ____20____ A. That’s because it is a teddy bear. B. I like Winnie the Pooh very much. C. It is the best gift I have ever gotten. D. Cute, soft teddy bears were born in the 20th century. E. There are even teddy bear museums around the world. 【答案】17. A 18. D 19. E 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍泰迪熊玩具，包括它的特点、起源、流行情况以及作者和泰迪熊的个人故事。 【17题详解】 上文说“但是它不能动，也不能发出任何声音”，后文开始介绍泰迪熊外形和材质，选项A“That’s because it is a teddy bear.”可以解释前文这只“宠物熊”无法动弹发声的原因，起到承上启下作用。 【18题详解】 下文说它们并非只有一个诞生地，此处是介绍泰迪熊诞生背景，选项D“Cute, soft teddy bears were born in the 20th century.”符合本段讲述泰迪熊起源的语境，和后文转折句衔接顺畅。 【19题详解】 上文“它们出现在歌曲、故事和电影里”，体现泰迪熊影响力很大，选项E“There are even teddy bear museums around the world.”进一步补充说明泰迪熊的流行程度，上下文语义连贯。 【20题详解】 前文讲述作者从小抱着奶奶亲手做的泰迪熊睡觉，一直保存至今的经历，选项C“It is the best gift I have ever gotten.”是对这只特别泰迪熊的总结评价，贴合本段个人回忆的语境。 二、完形填空（共10小题，每小题1分；满分10分） Harry and Annie lived a mile from town, but they walked there to school every day. It was a pleasant walk around the small ____21____ on their way to school. In winter, when the ice was thick and firm (坚固的), they went across the river. But their mother did not like them to ____22____ this unless someone was with them. “Don’t go across the river today, children,” she said, as she kissed them goodbye one ____23____. “It is beginning to thaw (解冻).” “All right, mother,” said Harry, not very happy, for he was very ____24____ in running and sliding on the ice.

Most people don’t want ____31____ (buy) art. They think of art as something that cannot be used. Many people enjoy looking ____32____ pieces of art, but there are not many people who would like to pay a lot of money for art. Maybe this is why some people are ____33____ (surprise) when a piece of art sells for a lot of money. Why are some art pieces so expensive? Who decides how much art is worth anyway? Works by famous artists, such as Monet or Picasso, are worth a lot of money. ____34____ the value may go up or down based on if a work is real and how common it is. For artists who may be new or not so well-known, the value of their art may go up or down based on an art ____35____ (expert) opinion of it. However, sometimes the value of art does not follow rules. For example, Jackson Pollock is best known for his paintings. His paintings look like paint ____36____ (throw) on a wall. Still, his paintings sell for millions. Another artist’s photograph of a simple, brown potato sold for ____37____ (much) than a million dollars. These are examples of when the value given to a piece of art may confuse (使困惑) some people. In the end, the value of a piece of art ____38____ (depend) on each person. What may be worthless to ____39____ (first) person may be very valuable to another. In the end, the buyer decides _____40_____ worth of a piece of art. The value of a piece of art just becomes the price someone pays for it. 【答案】31. to buy 32. at 33. surprised 34. But 35. expert’s 36. thrown 37. more 38. depends 39. the first 40. the 【解析】 【导语】本文探讨艺术品价格高低的原因，指出名画价值会受艺术家知名度、专家评价影响，而艺术品最终的价值因人而异，由购买者决定。 【31题详解】 句意：大多数人不想购买它们。固定搭配want to do sth.，不定式作宾语，buy的不定式形式to buy。 【32题详解】 句意：许多人喜欢欣赏艺术品，但没有多少人愿意花大价钱购买艺术品。固定搭配look at，意为“欣赏、观看”，故填at。 【33题详解】 句意：也许这就是为什么当一件艺术品卖出高价时，有些人会感到惊讶。be动词后接形容词作表语，形容人的感受用surprised。 【34题详解】 句意：但一件作品的价值会根据它的真伪和普及程度上下浮动。前文说名家画作价值高，本句转折说明价格会波动，句首转折连词But，首字母大写。 【35题详解】 句意：对于那些初出茅庐或是名气不大的艺术家而言，他们作品的价值会随着艺术专家对其作品的评价而起伏。expert“专家”，前面有不定冠词an，此处用单数形式，所以此处用名词所有格expert’s，表示“专家的”，修饰名词opinion。 【36题详解】 句意：他的画作看起来就像颜料被泼在了墙上。paint和throw是被动关系，throw过去分词thrown，作定语。 【37题详解】 句意：另一位艺术家拍摄的普通棕色土豆照片售价超一百万美元。后面than提示用比较级，much的比较级more。 【38题详解】 句意：说到底，一件艺术品的价值取决于每个人。主语the value为单数，全文一般现在时，depend三单形式depends。 【39题详解】 句意：对第一个人来说毫无价值的东西，对另一个人可能价值连城。序数词修饰person，序数词前加定冠词the，故填the first。 【40题详解】 句意：最终，购买者决定一件艺术品的价值。固定搭配the worth of…，worth为名词，前面用定冠词the限定，填the。 四、阅读与表达（共4小题，61-63小题，每小题2分，64小题4分；满分10分） 阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题。 Once upon a time, there was a family with 18 children living in a village. Two of the children, both boys, loved painting very much, but the family was so poor that it was impossible to send both of them to study at art school at the same time. After many discussions, the two boys finally worked out a plan. They would toss (抛) a coin. The loser would go down into the mines (煤矿) and, with his money, pay for his brother’s college tuition (学费). Then, when the brother who won the toss finished his studies, he would pay for the other brother to study at the college. One of the brothers, Albrecht Durer, won the toss and his brother Jack went down into the mines. Durer worked with all his heart and his paintings were much better than those of most of his teachers. He was beginning to make a lot of money for his paintings. Durer returned. When he told Jack he could go to art college, Jack said softly: “The four years in the mines have done too much to my hands. It is too late. Now I can’t even hold a glass.” To show his great love and respect for his brother, Durer drew his brother’s hands with palms (手掌) together and thin fingers towards the sky. He called his drawing The Praying Hands, which became very famous years later. The next time you see a copy of that touching work, take a second look. Let it be your reminder: No one can ever succeed alone! 41. How many children were there in the family? ____________________________________________________________________ 42. Why was it impossible to send both boys to art school together? ____________________________________________________________________ 43. How long did Jack work in the mines when Durer returned? ____________________________________________________________________ 44. What do you think of the story? Talk about your ideas. Write 30 words or more. ____________________________________________________________________ 【答案】41. 18. 42. Because the family was so poor. 43. For four years. 44. I think the story is very moving. It shows the great love between brothers. Jack sacrificed his dream for Durer. It tells us that no one can succeed alone.

B Many people believe a common saying: fish can only keep memories for seven seconds. For a long time, we have thought fish are forgetful and they will never remember past experiences. However, a new scientific study shows that this old idea is completely wrong. According to a new study published in the famous science journal Nature, fish are much smarter than we imagine. Some kinds of fish have special DNA in their bodies. Surprisingly, this special genetic (遗传的) structure helps them form clearer and longer-lasting memories than human beings. More amazingly, their precious memories can be passed down to their young through genes. This amazing ability plays an important role in fish’s survival in nature. It helps fish stay away from dangers and live longer. Here is a clear example. If parent fish once suffered from hunger in a special water environment, their baby fish will naturally remember this dangerous situation after birth. The young fish will make full preparations ahead of time to avoid hunger and keep safe. In fact, fish can remember dangerous places, food sources (来源) and useful skills for months. Next time when your friends talk about fish’s seven-second memory, you can share this interesting science fact with them. It is really surprising that such small sea creatures have such powerful memories. 5. For a long time, what do people think of fish? A. They are smart. B. They are special. C. They are forgetful. D. They are interesting. 6. What does the underlined word “precious” mean in Paragraph 2? A. valuable B. terrible C. dangerous D. countable 7. What will happen when parent fish suffers from hunger in one place? A. They will tell their baby fish to remember this place. B. The parent fish will remember this dangerous place. C. Their baby fish will avoid hunger in this place after birth. D. Their baby fish will naturally forget this dangerous place. 8. According to the text, fish can remember ________ for months. A. a kind of food B. a good friend C. useful tools D. unsafe places C Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world. However, people usually like one more than the other. These drinks also have very different uses. Tea drinking started in China and India over 4,000 years ago, around 2700 BC. Tea is made from leaves. These days, some people drink tea for health, using it to help with sleep, stress, or losing weight. However, most people in tea-drinking countries see tea as more than just a healthy drink. In fact, tea drinking in countries such as China is a part of the culture. In China, tea is always present when people meet. Whether in someone’s home or a business, tea is always offered as a way of welcoming. In the UK, homes and offices usually have tea time. This is a time when tea and other dishes are served in the afternoon. It is a way of relaxing with friends or co-workers. Coffee came much later than tea, just over 1,000 years ago. Coffee is made from beans. Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel more energetic. Most people do not drink coffee to relax. Instead, they drink coffee to get going. Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up. Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the workday. Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends. However, many people at the coffee shop drink coffee while working on their computers. Is tea or coffee more common in your country? Between the two, which do you like to drink more? 9. From the text, we know that tea drinking has lasted for ________. A. over 1,000 years B. over 2,700 years C. more than 4,000 years D. more than 5,000 years 10. What do most people mainly drink coffee for? A. Getting energized. B. Keeping healthy. C. Relaxing themselves. D. Visiting coffee shops. 11. One thing tea and coffee have in common is that they act as ________. A. a drink for losing weight B. a present for meeting people C. a tool for welcoming some foreign visitors D. a bridge for communication between people 12. What’s the best title (标题) for the text? A. A way of relaxing B. The most popular drink C. History of two different drinks D. Different cultures of tea and coffee D Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for inviting me to speak to you about Blue Sky Rescue today. Let me begin with my own story. Back in 2008, I was hiking in the mountains with some friends when one of them fell and got a bad head injury. We had to find help quickly, so we called an emergency (紧急情况) number. It was already dark, and we couldn’t even see where we were. After some time, we heard dogs barking and the voices of the Blue Sky Rescue team. I nearly started crying. We were so thankful that they found us! I’ve never forgotten that day. Since then, I’ve wanted to help others too. I signed up with Blue Sky Rescue in 2009, and I’ve been a volunteer ever since. We’ve been to schools and other communities to teach children and adults how to stay safe and prepare for the worst. We’ve provided medical aid and searched for missing people after natural disasters. Working as a volunteer has taught me many practical life-saving skills. It has also helped me understand the power of teamwork because it’s the key to successful rescues. Most of all, being a volunteer has taught me the value of every life. The work is difficult. It’s voluntary, so we aren’t paid. We often go without food or sleep. But our primary goal has always been to save as many people as we can. I’m just an ordinary person, but I’ll rush into danger. To the people we’ve saved and their loved ones, I know we’re their heroes. And that makes everything we do worth it. We want to do even more, but we can’t do it all alone. Will you join us as a volunteer? Together we can make a difference! 13. Why did the writer tell his own story in the second paragraph? A. To introduce himself. B. To become a volunteer. C. To tell the reason why he joined Blue Sky Rescue. D. To remind people of calling an emergency number. 14. What does the underlined word “It” refer to in Paragraph 4? A. Working as a volunteer. B. Hiking in the mountains. C. Teaching practical life-saving skills. D. Searching for missing people. 15. From the text, we can infer (推断) that ________. A. the writer is paid for his work B. the writer wants to be a hero C. some voluntary work is dangerous D. voluntary work is the key to success 16. How does the writer feel as a volunteer? A. Bored. B. Proud. C. Lonely. D. Successful. 第二节 阅读短文，从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余选项。 Most kids in Britain have pet bears. This animal is both furry (毛茸茸的) and friendly.

Two of the children, both boys, loved painting very much, but the family was so poor that it was impossible to send both of them to study at art school at the same time. After many discussions, the two boys finally worked out a plan. They would toss (抛) a coin. The loser would go down into the mines (煤矿) and, with his money, pay for his brother’s college tuition (学费). Then, when the brother who won the toss finished his studies, he would pay for the other brother to study at the college. One of the brothers, Albrecht Durer, won the toss and his brother Jack went down into the mines. Durer worked with all his heart and his paintings were much better than those of most of his teachers. He was beginning to make a lot of money for his paintings. Durer returned. When he told Jack he could go to art college, Jack said softly: “The four years in the mines have done too much to my hands. It is too late. Now I can’t even hold a glass.” To show his great love and respect for his brother, Durer drew his brother’s hands with palms (手掌) together and thin fingers towards the sky. He called his drawing The Praying Hands, which became very famous years later. The next time you see a copy of that touching work, take a second look. Let it be your reminder: No one can ever succeed alone! 41. How many children were there in the family? ____________________________________________________________________ 42.
