参考范文:
Dear fellow students,
Our school has started a program of garbage
classification.Different kinds of garbage are required to
be sorted out and placed in different dustbins.Paper can
be recycled,while leftovers can be collected as food for
pigs or processed as fertilizer for plants.Above all,such
harmful things as plastics and used batteries should not
be mixed with other wastes.
The program is of great benefit.We will be able to
save resources by making use of recyclable garbage and
harmful things will not pollute our environment after
special treatment.
Let's work together for a better campus!

参考范文:
Paragraph 1:
After reading the diary,the son began to think
back to the days when he used to sit together with his
father,his eyes filled with tears.His father would
patiently answer the same question all 23 times without
feeling irritated while his father asked him the same
question just 4 times!The son thought to himself:If I
attain old age,how will my son look at me?Will he
think of me as a burden?Will he shout at me because of
my poor sight,poor hearing or poor understanding?
Paragraph 2:
Feeling ashamed,the son got down on his knees
before his father.He made an apology to his father,
begging his father to forgive him for his bad behavior.
He said aloud,"I promise to make you happy forever,
Dad.It is you who have cared for me ever since I was a
little child,showing your selfless affection for me.You
worked hard to make money so that I could afford to go
to university.I will serve you in the best way.

第一节
A
【语篇解读】这是一篇应用文。本文是一篇诗歌大赛
的征稿启事。文章就参赛作品的内容、奖项、参赛规则
等做了介绍。
l.A细节理解题。根据Prizes部分中第一段中的
"Trip to Washington,D.C.for each of three
winner's,a parent and one other person of the
winner's choice'”可知,每位获奖者都可以带一名家长
和另一名由获奖者选择的人员。因此,每位获奖者可
以带两个人。故选A。
2.C细节理解题。根据Prizes部分中第三段“50
Honorable Mentions:Judges will choose up to 50
honorable mention winners,who will each receive a
T-shirt in memory of Earhart's final flight”可知,每位
优秀奖获奖者都将获得一件纪念埃尔哈特最后一次
飞行的T恤。故选C。
3.B细节理解题。根据最后一部分中的“Follow all
rules carefully to prevent disqualification.Write a
poem using100 words or fewer”可知,所写的诗字数
不能超过100字。否则,将会被取消资格。故结合选
项,B选项(写一首120字的诗)是会被取消资格的。
故选B。
B
【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文,主要论述了文化冲击
发生的原因和结果,以及表现形式等。
4.C细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Newcomers may
be anxious because they don't speak the language.
Neither do they know the customs nor understand the
people's behavior in daily life.(由于语言不通、不了解
当地的风俗、不理解当地人日常生活中的行为习惯,
新来者会感到焦虑、担心)”可知,C项符合语境。
5.B推理判断题。根据第二段最后两句“The
foreigners may be unsure as to when to shake hands,
when to start conversations,or how to approach a
stranger.The idea of culture shock helps explain the
feelings of puzzlement and confusion.(外地人可能不
确定什么时候握手,什么时候开始交谈,或者如何接近陌
生人,文化冲击有助于解释这种困惑与窘迫的感觉)”可
以推断,由于文化冲击,人们常常会感到困惑。
6.A
细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“Newcomers
may be anxious because they don't speak the
language.”并结合常识可知,在一个新的国家,人们遇
到的最大问题就是语言不通。
T.B推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Newcomers feel
at times that they do not belong to the culture and feel
deserted by the native members of the culture.When
this happens,visitors may want to reject everything
about the new environment and may glorify and sing
their own praises of the positive aspects of their own
culture.(新来者有时觉得自己不属于当地的文化,觉
得自己被抛弃了。当这些发生时,他们会拒绝一切有
关新环境的东西,并称赞他们自己的文化中积极的方
面)”可以推断出,由于对新文化一无所知,新来的一
些移民常常会拒绝新国家中的一切。
【语篇解读】这是一篇新闻报道。短文报道了在英国,
由于年轻人负担不起离家的费用,而老年人又面临着被
孤立的风险,越来越多的家庭选择住在一起,出现了多
世同堂的现象。
8.B细节理解题。根据第三段“but Rita Whitehead
has her own kitchen,bathroom,bedroom and living
room on the ground floor.”可知,但Rita在一楼有自
己的厨房、浴室、卧室和客厅。由此可知,Rit在布里
斯托尔的维多利亚式住宅中使用一楼。故选B项。
9.A推理判断题。根据第五段“And what does Nick
think?"From my standpoint,it all seems to work
very well.Would I recommend it?Yes,I think I
would.”可知,尼克是怎么想的?“从我的角度来看,
一切都很顺利。我推荐它吗?是的,我想我会推荐在
一起居住的。”由此判断出,尼克对和岳母合住房子的
态度是积极的。故选A项。
l0.C细节理解题。根据第六段“Official reports
suggest that the number of households with three
generations living together had risen from 325,000
in2002to419,000in2013.”官方报告显示,三代同
堂的家庭数量从2002年的32.5万户增加到2013年
的4l.9万户。根据第七段“It is said that about
20%of 25-34-year-olds live with their parents,
compared with 16%in 1991.The total number of all
multigenerational households in Britain is thought to
be about1.8 nillion.”可知,据说,25一34岁的年轻
人中有20%和父母住在一起,而1991年这一比例为
16%。据估计,英国多代同堂的家庭总数约为180
万。由此可知,作者关于多世同堂家庭的论述基于
发布的统计数据。故选C项。
11.D主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据第一段“With
the young unable to afford to leave home and the old
at risk of isolation(孤独),more families are
choosing to live together.”可知,由于年轻人负担不
起离家的费用,而老年人又面临着被孤立的风险,越
来越多的家庭选择住在一起。所以短文主要是关于
英国生活方式的一种上升趋势。故选D项。
D
【语篇解读】文章主要讲述了如何吹出更大的泡泡。
12.D写作意图题。文章主要讲述了如何吹出更大的
泡泡,根据第一段中的“Do just as follows”可知这篇
文章的目的是指导人们如何操作。故选D。
l3.B细节理解题。根据第四段最后三句“The
glycerin or corn syrup mixes with the soap to make
it thicker.The thicker skin of the bubbles keeps the
water from evaporating as quickly,so they last
longer.It also makes them stronger,so you can
blow bigger bubbles.”可知,甘油或玉米糖浆可使泡
泡变得更大。故选B。
l4.A细节理解题。根据第五段第一句“Dip a bubble
wand or straw into the mixture,slowly pull it out,
wait a few seconds,and then blow.”可知,泡沫棒或
吸管可用来吹泡泡。故选A。
15.D推理判断题。根据文章第四段尤其是最后三句
可知,甘油或玉米糖浆与肥皂液混合可使泡沫表面
变厚,而泡沫表面越厚,泡泡就越大。故选D。
第二节
【语篇解读】本文为说明文,就如何做到自我接纳给出
了几点建议。人无完人,只有学会接纳自己,才能看到
自己的优点,才能以更好的状态面对生活。
16.B推理判断题。通过逻辑关系解题。设空处前文
提到自我接纳有时似乎很困难,而设空处后“a
handful of ways that will set you in the right
direction”表明自我接纳并非无处下手。B项“Where
do you start?”正好承上启下,引出下文的建议。
17.F主旨大意题。考查考生对段落主题句的概括能
力。通过词汇解题。根据下文的段落结构可判定设
空处为段落主题句。根据段落一致性原则,在下文
定位关键词“people who make you feel not-good
enough”、“your life is better than theirs'”,据此可推
断出本段与“比较”有关。故F项“Stop comparing
yourself with others..”正确。
18.D推理判断题。通过逻辑关系解题。本段的主题
是“人都会犯错”。设空处前提到我们对自己的错误
或失败感到羞愧,其后提到犯错是很正常的事,是对
D项“you are only human”的具体解释,即我们只是
普通人,是人都会犯错,所以不需要感到羞愧。
19.C推理判断题。通过逻辑关系解题。设空处前提
到的“You have a job,earned your degree,and you
ot out of bed today.”都是生活中看似微不足道的小
事,但这些小事也是我们的成就。C项“Nothing is
too small to celebrate.(再小的事都值得庆祝。)”顺
承前文提到的小成就。
20.A推理判断题。考查考生对上下文顺承关系的理
解能力。通过逻辑关系解题。本段主题句提到你已
列出了你的长处和不足之处。根据设空处后的
"Turn to a page in your journal to your list of
strengths and achievements.See how awesome you
are?”提醒我们看看自己的长处和优,点,发现自己的
优秀。这正是针对A项“Feeling upset again?”给出
的解决办法。
第三部分语言运用
第一节
【语篇解读】本文语篇类型是记叙文,主题语境是生
活。文章讲述了父母与孩子之间在不同阶段所扮演的
角色不同。
21.C根据空前naughty可知,儿子是淘气的,sat on符
合语境。当儿子坐到冰激凌上,“我”向祖父寻求支
持与帮助。
22.B参考上题解析。
23.C根据下文关于照顾孩子的描述可知,“我”觉得和
两个小男孩一起生活是很大的挑战。
24.D根据第二段第一句中的angry以及第三段中
their problems are bigger可知,此处祖父是说小孩子
都是小问题。
25.B“我”当时听了祖父的话有点生气,因为养育两个
男孩并不是小困难。
26.B根据空后内容可知,不过“我”还是知道怎样应对
它们。
27.D那个时候,“我”每天都在做这些,所以应对这些
问题似乎成了“我”的工作。而且“我”基本上可以处
理困扰他们的大部分事情。
28.C根据下文内容可知,正如祖父所说的那样,他们
的问题随着年龄的增长也比20年前大了。
29.D根据空后的how to be a mom可知,这个阶段
“我”需要学习的便是如何做一个不去帮助他们的
妈妈。
30.A根据空前Vorried about可知,最近因为担心大
儿子,所以“我”一直给他重复一些注意事项。
3l.A根据最后一段的helpful可知,此空指“我”已经
帮不上忙了。
32.A但是看到他可以很好地处理自己的生活,“我”也
感到很高兴。
33.B参考上题解析。
34.C根据空后内容可知,我们的角色互换后,如今是
儿子安抚“我”,然后在自己的后视镜中冲“我”微笑。
与第二段中“我”对儿子的做法形成对比。
35.D参考上题解析。
第二节
【语篇解读】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章主要介

城,担任其国际形象大使,我获得了中国的永久居留
权。分析可知,所填空应是句中的目的状语,t0do不

第四部分写作
第一节
参考范文:
Responsible or civilized tourism behaviors are of
great importance for everyone.Cultural relics and
natural scenery belong to everyone,including the
generations to come,so we should protect them.And
good tourism behaviors can have a good effect on others
to follow.
First,when we enjoy ourselves in tour sites,don't
throw rubbish everywhere-you can take a small bag
with you,and then throw them in the dustbin.Second,
don't draw or write anything on the walls or anywhere
else,for it will be very annoying and it is hard to remove
later.Besides,be friendly to the workers and other
visitors,and give a hand if help is needed.
Let's join in and work together to make a
difference!
第二节
参考范文:

home.I explained the possible reason why he needed to
stay a day longer in the hospital.He opened up and even
put a smile on his face.I felt excited,asking,"Is there
anything else I can do for you?""No,I believe you have
done a great deal.I feel much better than before you
came in.I can't thank you enough.
Paragraph 2:
I felt I had made a small difference.I was proud
of my role as a nurse and thought it a wise decision to go
back to nursing.I kept in touch with the old man though
he had already been released from the hospital.We

a remarkable recovery.Despite the pressure of the job,I
never regret my decision to pursue my passion.

Culture shock occurs when people have been suddenly thrown into a new culture.
Newcomers may be anxious because they don't speak the language.Neither do they know
the customs nor understand the people's behavior in daily life.
Quite often the visitor finds that“yes”may not always mean“yes”,that friendliness
does not necessarily mean friendship,or that statements that appear to be serious are really
intended as jokes.The foreigners may be unsure as to when to shake hands,when to start
conversations,or how to approach a stranger.The idea of culture shock helps explain the
feelings of puzzlement and confusion.
Language problems do not account for all the setback that people feel.When one has
lost everything that was once familiar,such as understanding a transportation system,
knowing how to register for university classes,or knowing how to make friends,difficulties
in coping with the new society may arise.
When an individual enters a strange culture,he or she feels like a fish out of water.
Newcomers feel at times that they do not belong to the culture and feel deserted by the
native members of the culture.When this happens,visitors may want to reject everything
about the new environment and may glorify and sing their own praises of the positive
aspects of their own culture.On the other side,more visitors may sneeze at their native
country by rejecting its value and instead choosing to approve of the value of the new
country.This may occur as an attempt to accept the new culture in order to be taken in by the
people in it.
4.What do people feel when they are abruptly in a new culture?
A.Excited.
B.Delighted.
C.Upset.
D.Hopeless.
5.We can infer from the second paragraph that
A.it's impossible to get used to a new culture
B.people feel confused due to culture shock
C.foreigners often don't mean what native people say
D.most foreigners are usually quite humorous
6.The biggest barrier people often meet with in a new country is
A.the language
B.the transportation
C.the environment
D.the puzzlement
2-2
7.A few immigrants say no to everything of the new country because
A.they miss their native culture seriously
B.they know nothing about the culture
C.they can't enter the mainstream society
D.they really regret having immigrated
C
With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation(),
more families are choosing to live together.
The doorway to peace and quiet,for Nick Bright at least,leads straight to his mother-
in-law,she lives on the ground floor,while he lives upstairs with his wife and their two
daughters.
Four years ago they all moved into a three-storey Victorian house in Bristol-one of a
growing number of multigenerational families in the UK living together under the same
roof.They share a front door and a washing machine,but Rita Whitehead has her own
kitchen,bathroom,bedroom and living room on the ground floor.
"We floated the idea to my mum of sharing at a house,"says Kathryn Whitehead.
Rita cuts in:"We spoke more with Nick because I think it's a big thing for Nick to live
with his mother-in-law.
And what does Nick think?"From my standpoint,it all seems to work very well.
Would I recommend it?Yes,I think I would."
It's hard to tell exactly how many people agree with him,but research indicates that
the numbers have been rising for some time.Official reports suggest that the number of
households with three generations living together had risen from 325,000 in 2002 to
419,000in2013.
Other varieties of multigenerational family are more common.Some people live with
their elderly parents;many more adult children are returning to the family home,if they
ever left.It is said that about 20%of 25-34-year-olds live with their parents,compared
with 16%in 1991.The total number of all multigenerational households in Britain is
thought to be about 1.8 million.
Stories like that are more common in parts of the world where multigenerational living
is more firmly rooted.In India,particularly outside cities,young women are expected to
move in with their husband's family when they get married.
8.Who mainly uses the ground floor in the Victorian house in Bristol?
A.Nick.
B.Rita.
C.Kathryn.
D.The daughters.
2-3
9.What is Nick's attitude towards sharing the house with his mother-in-law?
A.Positive.
B.Carefree.
C.Tolerant.
D.Unwilling
10.What is the author's statement about multigenerational family based on?
A.Family traditions.
B.Financial reports.
C.Published statistics.
D.Public opinions.
11.What is the text mainly about?
A.Lifestyles in different countries.
B.Conflicts between generations.
C.A housing problem in Britain.
D.A rising trend of living in the UK.

Blowing bubbles is fun!The best thing about bubbles is that it's easy to make your
own bubble solution ()You can make as much as you want and blow as many bubbles
as you'd like.If you add a“secret”ingredient(配料),you'll get bigger and stronger
bubbles!Do just as follows:
Measure 6 cups of water into one container,then pour 1 cup of dish soap into the
water and slowly stir it until the soap is mixed in.Try not to let bubbles form while you
stir.
Measure1 tablespoon of glycerin(甘油)orl/4 cup of corn syrup(玉米搪浆)and add
it to the container.Stir the solution until it is mixed together.
You can use the solution right away,but to make even better bubbles,put the lid on
the container and let your super bubble solution sit overnight.The soap mixture on the
outside of a bubble is actually made of three very thin layers:soap,water,and another
layer of soap.A bubble pops when the water that is trapped between the layers of soap
evaporates().The glycerin or corn syrup mixes with the soap to make it thicker.The
thicker skin of the bubbles keeps the water from evaporating as quickly,so they last
longer.It also makes them stronger,so you can blow bigger bubbles.
Dip a bubble wand or straw into the mixture,slowly pull it out,wait a few seconds,
and then blow.If you don't have a ready-made "bubble wand",you can make your own by
cutting off the end of the bulb of a plastic pipet.Dip the cut end in solution and blow
through the narrow end.You can also make a loop out of thin wire or pipe cleaner.Just
twist a round end on your wire to blow the bubbles through.You can even make it heart-
shaped,square or use other shapes if you're clever enough to bend it well.
12.For what purpose is the text written?
A.To argue.
B.To advertise.
C.To entertain.
D.To instruct.
13.What does the secret in making bigger and stronger bubbles lie in?
A.The soap.
B.The corn syrup.C.The water.
D.The straw.
2-4
14.What can you use a bubble wand to do?
A.Blow bubbles.
B.Mix the solution.
C.Measure soap.
D.Shape wires.
15.What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A.More soap,more bubbles.
B.Less water,better bubbles
C.Stronger skin,more bubbles.
D.Thicker layers,bigger bubbles.

too far out of reach.16 Here's a handful of ways that will set you in the right direction.
O 17 Do not follow the people who make you feel not-good-enough.Why do you
follow them?Are you hoping that eventually you will feel empowered because your life is
better than theirs?Know that your life is your own;you are the only you in this world.
OForgive yourself for mistakes that you have made.We are often ashamed of our
shortcomings,our mistakes and our failures.18 You will make mistakes,time and time
again.Rather than getting caught up in how you could have done better,why not offer
yourself a compassionate(有同情心)response?“That didn't go as planned.But,I tried my
best.”
ORecognize all of your strengths.Write them down in a journal.Begin to train your
brain to look at strength before weakness.List all of your accomplishments and
achievements.You have a job,earned your degree,and you got out of bed today.19
ONow that you've listed your strengths,list your imperfections.Turn the page in your
journal.Put into words why you feel unworthy,why you don't feel good enough.Now,read
these words back to yourself.20 Turn to a page in your journal to your list of
strengths and achievements.See how awesome you are?
A.Feeling upset again?
B.Where do you start?
C.Nothing is too small to celebrate.
D.Remember,you are only human.
E.Set an intention for self-acceptance.
F.Stop comparing yourself with others.
G.When does the comparison game start?

My two kids and I were at Dunkin'Donuts,meeting my grandfather for a cup of
coffee.My boys were 2 and 4 then.When the naughty little kid 21 his ice cream in the
middle of the store,I turned to my grandfather for 22.I was surprised to find him
laughing.When I tried to talk to him about how 23 life with two young boys is,his
reply was short,“Little kids,24 problems.”
At the time,I felt a little angry.The 25 of raising my two boys didn't feel little.I
sometimes felt overwhelmed(不知所措的)by their problems and needs.Still,I knew how
to 26 them.I could calm my elder son down with his favourite CD and smiled at him in
the rear-view mirror(后视镜).Back then,“fixing their problems'”seemed like my27
I did it every day.And,in general,I could fix most things that annoy them.
Those boys are 24 and 22 now.And,28 my grandfather said,their problems are
bigger than they were 20 years ago.And one thing I'm 29 at this stage of parenting is
how to be a mom who doesn't help them.Worried about my elder son recently,I repeated
my 30 to him,but he told me to stop-told me that I wasn't being 31 and that I
needed to let him be.
Honestly,I miss the days when I felt so helpful.But I also feel 32 that I've raised
an adult healthy enough to 33 his own life.And so,in a 34 reversal(),it is
my son who now calms me down,35 me and then smiles at me from his rear-view
mirror.

"Are you crazy?You finally retired!Why would you want to work in the hospital
again?"My friends couldn't understand why,after forty years of nursing and four of
retirement,I would return to nursing.Actually,I didn't understand either.Tired of the
pressure of the job,I had eagerly and joyfully retired with no plans to practice nursing
again.
Then one day a friend who was also a retired nurse told me how much she loved being
a part of the Volunteer Registered Nurse program."You help nurses care for patients at the
bedside,"she said,"and the best part is that you do so at your own speed."
She directed me to the program at our local hospital,and after completing lots of
paperwork and a few classes,I was excited about getting back to the bedside.On my first
day,after basic training,I stepped onto the surgical (floor to be welcomed with
smiles and hellos from the staff.I checked with the charge nurse to see who needed my help
the most or if there was a particular patient requiring some extra care.
She smiled,"I am so glad to see you.I can't believe you are here to help me."Taking a
deep breath,she added,"Mr.Jones needs a bath and some extra attention.He is so
disappointed he's not going home today."
I proceeded()to the patient's room to see a sad man staring out of the window.
I gave him my biggest smile."Hi,I'm Mary,a volunteer RN and I'm here to take
special care of you this morning."
I asked if he would like to take a shower and he shook his head.
“Taking a shower and putting on clean pajamas(睡衣)may make you feel better,.”I
encouraged.
Paragraph 1:
He agreed and walked to the shower.
Paragraph 2:
I felt I had made a small difference.
