(满分:120分)

第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
The traffic signals along Factoria Boulevard in Bellevue,Washington,generally don't
flash the same length of green twice in a row,especially at rush hour.At 9:30am,the full
如
red/yellow/green signal cycle might be 140 seconds.By 9:33am,a burst of additional traffic
might push it to 145 seconds.Less traffic at 9:37am could push it down to 135.Just like the
金删
traffic itself,the timing of the signals changes.
That is by design.Bellevue,a fast-growing city just east of Seattle,uses a system that
is gaining popularity around the US:intersection(十字路口)signals that can adjust in real
time to traffic conditions.These lights,known as adaptive signals,have led to significant
declines in both the trouble and cost of travels between work and home.
"Adaptive signals can make sure that the traffic demand that is there is being
addressed,"says Alex Stevanovic,a researcher at Florida Atlantic University.
部
For all of Bellevue's success,adaptive signals are not a cure-all for jammed roadways.
都
Kevin Balke,a research engineer at the Texas A&.M University Transportation Institute,
says that while smart lights can be particularly beneficial for some cities,others are so
jammed that only a sharp reduction in the number of cars on the road will make a
meaningful difference."It's not going to fix everything,but adaptive signals have some
benefits for smaller cities,"he says.
帕
In Bellevue,the switch to adaptive signals has been a lesson in the value of welcoming
翻
new approaches.In the past,there was often an automatic reaction to increased traffic:just
widen the roads,says Mark Poch,the Bellevue Transportation Department's traffic
engineering manager.Now he hopes that other cities will consider making their streets run
smarter instead of just making them bigger.
1.What does the underlined word "that"in paragraph 2 refer to?
童
A.Increased length of green lights.
B.Shortened traffic signal cycle.
C.Flexible timing of traffic signals.
D.Smooth traffic flow on the road.
6-1
2.What does Kevin Balke say about adaptive signals?
A.They work better on broad roads.
B.They should be used in other cities.
C.They have greatly reduced traffic on the road.
D.They are less helpful in cities seriously jammed.
3.What can we learn from Bellevue's success?
A.It is rewarding to try new things.
B.The old methods still work today.
C.It pays to put theory into practice.
D.The simplest way is the best way.

The story of Sindhutai Sapkal is the story of rebirth and the love of children who
nobody else wanted.The 68-year-old woman has raised over 1,400 orphans (JL),offering
them not just food and shelter,but also the love of a real family.Her amazing work has
earned her over 750 awards and the nickname "Mother of Orphans".
Sindhutai Sapkal's work was inspired by her own hardships when growing up.Born
into a poor family,she had to abandon her education at age 9,and was married to a 20-
year-old man when she was just 10 years old.Ten years later,when she was expecting a
baby,she was thrown out of the house by her husband,and because everyone,even her
family,turned her away,she had to give birth in a cow house.
To support herself and her neorn daughter,Sapkal had to beg and sing at train
stations for food.It was during these difficult times that she met many other abandoned
youths who were struggling just like she was.She would share her food with them and
provide as much care as she could.Some of them started following her around,and that,
she says,is how her large family started to form without her even realizing.
Over the last 40 years,Sindhutai Sapkal has traveled to countless villages,giving
speeches until her throat was dry,trying to collect donations to provide a better life for her
adopted children.She managed to build four orphanages,where many abandoned children
have grown into respectable members of society.She makes it her duty to keep the kids on
the right path in life and offer them the love and care of a real family.
"I was raised believing that blood relations don't really mean much.For me,my
understanding of a home was based on what I had seen-my mother and her large family,
Sindhutai's daughter,Mamata,says."After completing my degrees,I have been working
with Mai(mother).”
4.What inspired Sindhutai Sapkal to start her work?
A.Over 750 awards given.
B.Her poor education.
C.Many homeless children.
D.Her life experiences.
6-2
5.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.Sindhutai Sapkal's work has a great influence on her daughter.
B.Mamata thinks blood relations don't really mean much in a family.
C.Mamata's based her understanding of a home on adopted children.
D.Sindhutai Sapkal was satisfied with what she got from her life.
6.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Sapkal's social status as Mother of Orphans.
B.Sapkal's contribution to abandoned children.
C.Sapkal's wish to build shelters for children.
D.Sapkal's effort to collect money for the poor.
7.Which of the following can be used to describe Sindhutai Sapkal?

B.Serious.

D.Strict.

It's 2035.You have a job,a family and you're about 40 years old!Welcome to your
future life.
Getting ready for work,you pause in front of the mirror."Turn red,"you say.Your
shirt changes from sky blue to deep red.Tiny preprogrammed electronics(智能电子元件)
are rearranged in your shirt to change its color.Looking into the mirror,you find it hard to
believe you're 40.You look much younger.With amazing advances in medicine,people in
your generation may live to be 150 years old.You're not even middle-aged!
As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal into a bowl,you
hear,"To lose weight,you shouldn't eat that!"from your shoes.They read the tiny
electronic code(电子源t码)on the cereal box to find out the nutrition details..You decide to
listen to your shoes."Kitchen,what can I have for breakfast?"A list of possible foods
appears on the counter as the kitchen checks its food supplies.
"Ready for your trip to space?"you ask your son and daughter.In 2015 only specially
trained astronauts went into space-and very few of them.Today anyone can go to space
for day trips or longer vacations.Your best friend even works in space.Handing your
children three strawberries each,you add,"The doctor says you need these for space
travel.”Thanks to medical advances,.vaccination shots(防疫针)are a thing of the past.
Ordinary foods contain special vaccines.With the strawberries in their mouths,the kids
head for the front door.
It's time for you to go to work.Your car checks your fingerprints and unlocks the
doors."My office.Autopilot,"you command.Your car drives itself down the road and
moves smoothly into traffic on the highway.You sit back and unroll your e-newspaper.The
latest news downloads and fills the viewer.Looking through the pages,you watch the news
as video film rather than read it.

One summer my friend and I decided to go to Italy for a holiday and we decided to
travel there without going through a travel agency.You know,you would be submerged
in crowds of tourists and lose lots of opportunities to get familiar with the country more
closely.We started to think over our trip and managed to come up with a free tour of Italy.
The trip was not very long but it was still very impressive(印象深刻的).We look
forward to going there again!Of course,we spent lots of time arranging()the trip,
but it was well worth it!Of course I was afraid that something would go wrong and I was
especially anxious about my visa,but everything went quite smoothly in the end.
The most difficult part was getting a visa (without an invitation.In the Italian
consulate(领事馆),one must hand in some official papers proving that one has a hotel
booked for oneself in order to get the visa.Then we had to solve the ticket problem.
Airlines often sell cheap tickets and we bought ours far in advance.The next step was to
book a hotel.We finally booked a hotel about 30 km away from the heart of Rome and it
was the perfect choice for our trip.
Every day we took a train that carried us to the heart of Rome.Our big house,which was
surrounded by the forest,was a rare place for the fresh air and absolute silence,beautiful views,
hospitable hosts,comfortable living conditions delighting us to no end.Besides this,we were very
lucky that our mistress was a Russian.She gave us a lot of advice that was of great use.She told us
what transport to choose and where the best places to go.
Don't be afraid to arrange your trip by yourself.It's not difficult!The only thing I'll
say right now is that we really enjoyed traveling by ourselves.We walked with a map and a
guidebook to wherever we wanted and we even met some of our fellow countrymen on the
way just two or three times.So,if you're also planning a "single"trip,don't forget to take a
Russian-Italian phrasebook as people in Italy prefer to speak in their native tongue.
6-4
12.Why does the author want to go to Italy again?
A.Because he had a great time there.
B.Because Italy has a lot of attractions.
C.Because his friend invited him there.
D.Because he didn't stay in Italy long enough
13.What does the author think was the hardest in preparing for his Italian trip?
A.Buying cheap airline tickets to Italy before the traveling.
B.Getting a visa without an invitation from the Italian consulate.
C.Booking a comfortable hotel on his own in Rome.
D.Solving the ticket problem far in advance.
14.In the fourth paragraph the author mainly explains
A.the reason why he chose to live in the center of Rome
B.the reason why the hotel he booked was the right choice
C.what transport they chose to travel in their Italian trip
D.the reason why the mistress gave them some advice
15.From the text we can know the author

多余选项。
Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?
We all grew up hearing people tell us to "go out and get some fresh air.16
According to recent studies,the answer is a big YES,if the air quality in your camping area
is good.
17 If the air you're breathing is clean-which it would be if you're away from the
smog of cities-then the air is filled with life-giving,energizing oxygen.If you exercise out
of doors,your body will learn to breathe more deeply,allowing even more oxygen to get to
your muscles(肌肉)and your brain.
Recently,people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and
healing().18 In these places patients can go to be near nature during their
recovery.It turns out that just looking at green,growing things can reduce stress,lower
blood pressure,and put people into a better mood().Greenery is good for us.Hospital
patients who see tree branches out their window are likely to recover at a faster rate than
patients who see buildings or sky instead.19 It gives us a great feeling of peace.
6-5
20 While the sun's rays can age and harm our skin,they also give us beneficial
Vitamin D.To make sure you get enough Vitamin D-but still protect your skin-put on
sunscreen right as you head outside.It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start
working,and that's plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day's worth of Vitamin D.
A.Fresh air cleans our lungs.
B.So what are you waiting for?
C.Being in nature refreshes us.
D.Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.
E.But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?
F.Just as importantly,we tend to associate fresh air with health care.
G.All across the country,recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens.

续写的词数应为150左右。
One morning,Molly handed me two bags.One regular lunch paper bag,and the one
with staples(订书钉)and paperclips(回形针).
“Why two bags?”“The other one is something else.”“What's in it?"“Just some stuff.
Take it with you.”I stuffed both bags into my briefcase(公文包),kissed the child and
rushed off.
At midday,while hurriedly swallowing down my real lunch,I tore open Molly's bag
and shook out the contents.Two hair ribbons,three small stones,a plastic dinosaur,a
pencil,a tiny seashell,a marble,a used lipstick,a small doll,two chocolate bars and 13
pennies.
I smiled.How charming!Rising to work,I swept the desk clean into the
wastebasket-leftover lunch,Molly's junk and all.There wasn't anything in there I
needed.
That evening Molly came to stand beside me while I was reading the paper."Where's
my bag?”“What bag?”“You know,the one I gave you this morning.”“I left it at the office,
why?""I forgot to put this note in it."She handed over the note."Besides,I want it back."
"Why?""Those are my things in the bag,Daddy,the ones I really like.I thought you might
like to play with them,but now I want them back.You didn't lose the bag,did you,
Daddy?"Tears puddled in her eyes.
“Oh,no,I just forgot to bring it home,.”I lied.“Bring it tomorrow,okay?”As she
hugged my neck with relief,I unfolded the note that had not gotten into the bag:"I love
you,Daddy.”
Oh.And uh-oh.I looked long at the face of my child.She had given me her
treasures-all that a 7-year-old held dear.Love in a paper bag,and I had missed it-not
only missed it,but had thrown it away because"there wasn't anything in there I needed".
It wasn't the first or the last time I felt ashamed wearing the title of father.
Paragraph 1:
It was a long trip back to the office.
Paragraph 2:
Tomy surprise,Molly gave the bag to me once again several days later.

参考范文:
Dear Tom,
How are you?Glad to tell you something about
mobile payment in China.Mobile payment is most
popular in China.It has made people's daily life more
and more convenient.Most of us are used to paying by
scanning QR codes.
By mobile payment,we can pay easily wherever we
go.We can buy breakfast on the street and pay by
scanning with our smart phone.In the subway station,
we can scan with our smart phone to purchase our
ticket.This is a glimpse of most Chinese's life-
allowing us to bid farewell to the wallets and bank
cards.
Mobile payment has greatly changed people's lives
in China.It seems that China is really leading in some
ways and it is also sweeping other nations.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
参考范文:
Paragraph 1:
At that moment,my father pointed to the cage,
"Look at that crab,there!"Staring at the crab,I found
that every time he wanted to escape,he was pulled back
into the cage.However,he didn't give up his fight.
Fortunately,he survived from the struggle eventually.
Shocked and amazed,I suddenly understood why my
father had suggested catching crabs that morning.I
thought the future would be filled with many
possibilities.Everyone would need to find out what he
enjoyed and held on to it.
Paragraph 2:
From that day on,I was determined to make my
dream come true.Besides my devotion to schoolwork,I
spent all my spare time making full preparations for
becoming a writer.Reading,collecting materials and
writing made my life busy but fulfilled,which laid a
good foundation for me.Meanwhile,I contributed to
literary journals.Gradually,some achievements as a
writer increased my confidence.I always think of the
crab whenever faced with difficulties.What my father
said also encouraged me on my way to success.Now I
am grateful for sticking to the thing I truly dreamed of.

D虽然文中都涉及了,但是都不符合题干要求。
14.B细节理解题。根据第四段对旅馆周围环境、交通
情况以及该旅馆的好处的介绍可知,作者在第四段
主要讲对旅馆满意的原因。
15.C推理判断题。根据文章的主要内容,尤其是第一
段说不想在旅游团的拥挤的人群中,也不想错过更
多亲近意大利的机会,以及最后一段的“Don'tbe
afraid to arrange your trip by yourself..”可以推断出
应该选择C。其余选项没有依据。
第二节
【语篇解读】主题:人与自我(生话);话题:健康。本文
是一篇说明文,介绍了呼吸新鲜空气和接近大自然有益
于身心健康。
16.E关联逻辑法解题。空格前一句说我们都是听着
人们说的“出去呼吸点儿新鲜空气”长大的,空格后
一句说答案是肯定的。由此可判断E项“但是新鲜
空气真的像你妈妈总说的那样对你有好处吗?”符合
语境。本设空类型属于细节理解类。
17.A设题位置法解题。根据空格后的内容可知,如果
人们呼吸的空气是干净的,那么空气中就充满了维
持生命的、让人充满活力的氧气。如果在户外锻炼,
人的身体会学会深呼吸,让更多的氧气进入肌肉和
大脑。所以本段主要说的是呼吸新鲜空气的好处,
故A项“新鲜空气清洁我们的肺”符合语境。本设空
类型属于段落主题句类。
l8.G词汇锁定法解题。空格后的these places与G项
中的recovery centers相呼应,因此G项“全国各地
的康复中心已经开始建造康复花园”符合语境。本
设空类型属于细节理解类。
19.C关联逻辑法解题。空格前介绍了接近大自然、看绿
色植物对病人的康复有益,空格后一句说“它给我们一
种非常好的内心平和的感觉”,由此可推断出空格处应
该表达置身于大自然的好处,故选C项“置身于大自然
使我们精神焕发”。本设空类型为细节理解类。
20.D设题位置法解题。空格后一句说,虽然阳光会使
我们的皮肤衰老并受到伤害,但阳光也能带来有益
的维生素D。这应该是呼吸新鲜空气附带的好处,故
D项“呼吸新鲜空气的另一个附带好处是阳光”符合
语境,D项中的sunlight与空格后的the sun's rays
相呼应。本设空类型属于段落主题句类。

第二节
参考范文:
Paragraph 1:
It was a long trip back to the office.I picked up
the wastebasket and poured the contents on my desk.I
was carefully sorting it all out.After removing the dirt
off and spraying the whole thing with breath freshener
to kill the smell of food.I carefully smoothed out the
bag and put the treasures inside.I carried the whole
thing home gingerly,like an injured kitten.That
evening,I returned it to Molly.After dinner,I asked
Molly to tell me about the stuff in the bag,and so she
took it all out a piece at a time and placed the objects in
a row on the dining room table.Everything had a story,
a memory,or was attached to dreams and imaginary
friends.I managed to say"I see"very wisely several
times.And,as a matter of fact,I did see.
Paragraph 2:
To my surprise,Molly gave the bag to me once
again several days later.The same bag and same stuff
inside.I felt forgiven,and trusted and loved.And a
little more comfortable wearing the title of father.Over
several months,the bag with the note in went with me
from time to time.In time Molly turned her attention to
other things.She found other treasures,lost in new
games,and grew up.I was left holding the bag.She
gave it to me one morning and never asked for its
return.And so I have it still.
高一第二学期期末综合冲刺卷·英语(七)
第一部分听力(略)
第二部分阅读
第一节
A
【语篇解读】这是一篇新闻报道。短文报道了上个月
在洛衫矶的联合车站,一块牌子上用别针别满了美元,
上面写着“给予你所能给与的,拿走你所需要的”。这样
的活动吸引了各种各样的人,组织者希望通过这样的活
动来提倡仁慈和同情。
l.C词义猜测题。由第一段“But at Union Station in
Los Angeles last month,a board went up with dollar
bills attached to it with pins and a sign that read,
‘Give What You Can,Take What You Need.,”可知,
但是上个月在洛杉矶的联合车站,一块牌子上用别针
别满了美元,上面写着“给予你所能给与的,拿走你所
需要的。”所以通过下文的语境,判断出第一段中的
“Money with no strings attached”是“无条件提供的
钱”的意思。故C选项正确。
2.B推理判断题。由第二段“‘People of all ages,
races,and socio-economic(社会经济的)backgrounds
gave and took,'said Tyler Bridges of The Toolbox,
which created the project.'We even had a bride in
her wedding dress come up to the board and take a
few dollars.”可知,发起该项活动的泰勒·布里奇斯
