Dear Sir/ Madam,
I am writing to ask for information about the courses in your school. I am especially interested in the four-week intensive course (强化课程).
I have been studying English for three years at a language school in Madrid, Spain. I’m good at listening, reading and writing. However, my speaking skills need to be improved.
I have looked at the course introduction on your website but there is no information about the dates and price for the course. Are you offering it next month? I would also like to know where your students are from. Are they from different cultures?
Finally, I hope to know what type of accommodations (住处) is available. My sister plans to visit me for one week while I am there. We would prefer to stay together. Would that be possible? By the way, I don’t plan to spend much money on accommodations.
I would be thankful if you could send me the information to mariagomez@gmail.com or call me at 0956-8893.
Thank you for your time.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
María Gómez

When I was young, I loved and really did well in drawing and art. I won awards, got constant attention, and even saw my face in the newspaper and on television because of my natural ability to draw.
Most people who happen to come across something that they are good at are encouraged to take it and run with it. Of course, my life was no different. From teachers, to principals, to family members, everyone seemed to have a ton of advice to give me in regard to art.
All the while, my true desire was writing. I entered poetry, essay and short-story contests and lost all. It was such a contrast from my artistic competition experience! It was so bad that I had a good friend who told me once, “If you are so good at drawing, why do you even care about writing? Stick to drawing!”
Though well intended, eighteen years later I’m glad I didn’t take his words to heart. Years went by with me still writing and still constantly entering contests. It was not until my first year in college that I finally got honorable mention in a poetry contest. As a writer, I’ve truly grown.
I’m sure there are things in your life that are challenging and yet, rewarding. Endurance, especially when it comes to things you truly love is essential. Take some time to devote some more energy to the thing that didn’t come easy and see what happens.
5. Why did the author get much attention when she was young?
A. She really loved drawing. B. She constantly won awards.
C. She used to watch television. D. She had the ability to read nature.
6. When the author seemed to be good at art, ______.
A. everyone encouraged her to run with it B. her parents knew little about it
C. her teacher told the principal about it D. people wanted to take her advice
7. What do Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The author’s desire to take part in contests. B. The author’s intention to be mentioned.
C. The author’s experience to become a writer. D. The author’s advice to grow up quickly.
8. Which of the following best describes the author?
A. Responsible and calm. B. Talented and determined.
C. Friendly and honest. D. Careful and proud.
【答案】5. B 6. A 7. C 8. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了作者从小因绘画能力突出而备受瞩目,但她真正喜欢的写作却表现平平,但作者坚持写作,最终在诗歌比赛中崭露头角的励志故事。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“When I was young, I loved and really did well in drawing and art. I won awards, got constant attention, and even saw my face in the newspaper and on television because of my natural ability to draw.”(当我小时候,我喜欢并擅长绘画和艺术。由于我天生的绘画能力,我赢得了奖项,得到了持续的关注,甚至在报纸和电视上看到了我的脸。)可知,作者小时候受到大家的关注是因为她绘画能力突出,不断得奖。故选B项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Most people who happen to come across something that they are good at are encouraged to take it and run with it. Of course, my life was no different. From teachers, to principals, to family members, everyone seemed to have a ton of advice to give me in regard to art.”(大多数人碰巧遇到自己擅长的事情时,都会被鼓励去接受它并坚持下去。当然,我的生活也没有什么不同。从老师到校长,再到家庭成员,每个人似乎都有很多关于艺术的建议要给我。)可知,当大家发现作者似乎很擅长艺术时,身边所有的人都鼓励她要坚持下去。故选A项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“All the while, my true desire was writing. I entered poetry, essay and short-story contests and lost all. It was such a contrast from my artistic competition experience! It was so bad that I had a good friend who told me once, “If you are so good at drawing, why do you even care about writing? Stick to drawing!””(一直以来,我真正的愿望是写作。我参加了诗歌、散文和短篇小说比赛,但全都输了。这与我的艺术比赛经历形成了鲜明的对比!这太糟糕了,我的一个好朋友曾经告诉我,“如果你这么擅长画画,你为什么还要关心写作?”坚持画画!”)及第四段“Though well intended, eighteen years later I’m glad I didn’t take his words to heart. Years went by with me still writing and still constantly entering contests. It was not until my first year in college that I finally got honorable mention in a poetry contest. As a writer, I’ve truly grown.”(尽管用意是好的,但18年后,我很高兴自己没有把他的话放在心上。多年过去了,我仍在写作,并不断参加比赛。直到大学一年级,我才在诗歌比赛中获得了优秀奖。作为一名作家,我真的成长了。)可知,这两段主要介绍了作者真正的热爱是写作,虽然一开始参加的所有写作比赛都以失败告终,也受到朋友的质疑,但作者没有放弃,坚持写作,多年后最终在诗歌比赛中崭露头角,开启了作为一名作家的梦想。故这两段主要介绍了作者成为作家的经历。故选C项。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“When I was young, I loved and really did well in drawing and art.”(当我小的时候,我喜欢并擅长绘画和艺术。)及第四段第二三句“Years went by with me still writing and still constantly entering contests. It was not until my first year in college that I finally got honorable mention in a poetry contest.”(多年过去了,我仍在写作,并不断参加比赛。直到大学一年级,我才在诗歌比赛中获得了优秀奖。)及最后一段第二句“Endurance, especially when it comes to things you truly love is essential.”(忍耐,尤其是当涉及到你真正喜欢的事情时,是必不可少的。)可知,作者在绘画方面有天赋,当发现自己真正的热爱是写作时,虽然一开始表现很差,但她不放弃,坚持写作,最终在诗歌比赛中获奖。说明作者是一个有天赋和坚定意志力的人。故选B项。
C
They say everything is bigger in Texas. While that may be true, some of the best things in Texas are quite small. Here is a case in point: tiny Mount Vernon, a town of just under 3,000 people. But if you do come across Mount Vernon, you might just get an intention to stay. That happens a lot around here, and it’s worth noting how remark able that is.
Tom Wilkinson was born in Mount Vernon 87 years ago and moved back after he retired from his career as a college English professor in Dallas. Like many of his neighbours, Wilkinson can track his ancestors back to the pioneers who settled here in the1870s. And like many, he values the simple life you can’t easily find in big cities. “People are still polite. They hold the door open for you,” he says. “We grow strong roots here!”
Preserving and honouring the past has been key to helping Mount Vernon survive. The residents have restored and reopened some of the empty stores, including the old barbershop, built more than 100 years ago. An old general store was turned into a combination space. Wander in on any given day and you might find a book club discussion or a work session for the local genealogy (家谱) group among the tables of people chatting over cups of coffee and plates of food.
Mount Vernon has the kind of big hearts you tend to find in a small town. For instance, when a local policeman was diagnosed with cancer last year, ten-year-old Lola McKellar set up a lemonade stand to raise money for his treatments. In 2015, when a 350-year flood sent water rushing into local homes, an army of volunteers showed up to get a wheelchair-bound neighbour and his wife to higher ground, and then came back to help others.
9. What does the author think of Mount Vernon?
A. Remote. B. Wealthy. C. Boring. D. Attractive.
10. Why did Tom Wilkinson come back to Mount Vernon?
A. He preferred the simple and natural life. B. He could continue his language teaching.
C. He could live together with his ancestors. D. He could meet more neighbours of his age.
11. What can we infer about people’s way of life in Mount Vernon from Paragraph 3?
A. It is in danger of extinction. B. It is quickly changing over time.
C. It is conservative but harmonious. D. It is being disturbed by the outside world.
12. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The history of Mount Vernon. B. The humanity of Mount Vernon.
C. The volunteers of Mount Vernon. D. The reconstruction of Mount Vernon.
【答案】9. D 10. A 11. C 12. B
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了德克萨斯州小镇弗农山虽小,却以其淳朴生活、邻里互助的温情与吸引力,展现了小镇的大情怀。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“But if you do come across Mount Vernon, you might just get an intention to stay. That happens a lot around here, and it’s worth noting how remark able that is.(但如果你真的偶然到访弗农山,你可能就会产生留下的念头。这种情况在这里经常发生,值得注意的是这有多么了不起)”可知,作者认为弗农山是一个极具吸引力的地方。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“And like many, he values the simple life you can’t easily find in big cities.(和许多人一样,他很珍视那种在大城市里不易找到的简单生活)”可知,Tom Wilkinson回到弗农山是因为他更喜欢这种简单自然的生活。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Preserving and honouring the past has been key to helping Mount Vernon survive. The residents have restored and reopened some of the empty stores, including the old barbershop, built more than 100 years ago. An old general store was turned into a combination space. Wander in on any given day and you might find a book club discussion or a work session for the local genealogy (家谱) group among the tables of people chatting over cups of coffee and plates of food.(保护和尊重过去是帮助弗农山存续的关键。居民们已经修复并重新开放了一些空置的商店,包括100多年前建造的旧理发店。一家旧杂货店变成了一个多功能空间。随便某天走进这里,你或许会看到:有人围桌参加读书沙龙、当地家谱研习组开展研讨,还有人边喝咖啡、享用美食边闲谈)”可知,居民修复百年老店、将老杂货店改造成多功能社交空间,以及人们在咖啡桌旁聊天等描述,说明当地人在保留传统的同时和谐共处,生活方式虽保守但充满和谐。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“Mount Vernon has the kind of big hearts you tend to find in a small town.(弗农山拥有的是你在小城镇里常能看到的热心肠)”以及后文邻里互助的具体事例可知,本段主要讲述了弗农山居民的人文温情。

【26题详解】
考查现在完成时和主谓一致。句意:自从它开始以来,许多人都参加了。由Since it was started可知,句子时态用现在完成时,即have/has done,主语people是复数,因此空格处是have taken,故填have taken。
【27题详解】
考查物主代词。句意:他们认为使地球美丽和和平是他们的责任。根据句意可知,空格处为“他们的”,后有名词duty,因此空格处用形容词性物主代词their,故填their。

第三部分 写作技能(共两节,满分30分)
第一节 双向翻译(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
The Chinese language differs from Western languages ___36___in that, instead of an alphabet, it uses characters which stand for ideas, objects or deeds. Chinese words are formed by putting together different characters. In many cases, a single character can also make up a word. The history of the Chinese language can be examined by looking at ___37___ 这些汉字是如何发展的.
Chinese writing began thousands of years ago. According to an ancient story, a man named Cang Jie invented Chinese writing. After seeing the tracks of animals in the snow and observing that the appearance of each one was different, ___38___ he had the idea that he could use different shapes to represent different objects. The first Chinese characters were drawings of physical objects. Some characters have been simplified and others have been made more difficult over time. However, as a whole, the characters have developed from drawings into standard forms. ___39___ 并非所有的汉字都从物体的图画演变而来. ___40___ Sometimes to express ideas, some characters were made by combining two or more characters together.
【答案】36. 在于(因为)它不使用字母而是用汉字表示思想、物体和行为
37. how these characters developed
38. 他想到可以用不同的形状来代表不同的物体
39. Not all characters were developed from drawings of objects
40. 有时候为了表达概念/想法, 某些汉字由两个或多个汉字组合而成
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了汉字的发展史。
【36题详解】
考查句子结构。分析句子结构可知,本句含有in that引导的原因状语从句和which引导的定语从句,先行词是characters。it uses characters which stand for ideas, objects or deeds意思是“用汉字表示思想、物体和行为”;instead of an alphabet意思为“不使用字母”,in that意为“因为,在于”引导原因状语从句。故本句可译为:在于(因为)它不使用字母而是用汉字表示思想、物体和行为。
【37题详解】
考查动词和宾语从句。分析句子结构可知,整个句子作at的宾语。表示“汉字”可用characters,表示“发展”可用develop,表示“如何”应用how,引导宾语从句,且在从句中作方式状语,宾语从句中要用陈述语序,且发生在过去,应该用一般过去时。故整句可以译为how these characters developed。
【38题详解】
考查同位语从句。分析句子结构可知,本句“he had the idea that he could use different shapes to represent different objects.”中that引导同位语从句,在从句中不充当成分,use...to...“用……来做……”,represent different objects“代表不同的事物”。故整句可以译为:他想到可以用不同的形状来代表不同的物体。
【39题详解】
考查被动语态。分析句意可知,“汉字”characters和“发展”是被动关系,应该用被动语态。表示“并非所有汉字”可用短语not all characters,表示“图画”可用短语drawings of objects。故整句可译为:Not all characters were developed from drawings of objects。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词和被动语态。本句中“ to express ideas”动词不定式表示目的,意思是“为了表达概念/想法”;“some characters were made by combining two or more characters together”意思为“某些汉字由两个或多个汉字组合而成”。故整句可译为:有时候为了表达概念/想法,某些汉字由两个或多个汉字组合而成。

【答案】Recently we have done a survey of short-sightedness in our school. It shows that a growing number of students are becoming short-sighted. 48.3% of girls wear glasses while 55.2% of boys wear glasses as well. There are several reasons.
First of all, with the rapid development of science technology, students can get access to mobile phone easily. Some students are even addicted to reading novels with their cellphones. Besides, some students have bad reading habits, which do great harm to their eyes. As a consequence, they cannot see the blackboard clearly in class or are unable to do sports freely with glasses on.
In my opinion, students should spend less time on mobile phones and TV. They had better do eye exercises regularly every day. They are supposed to keep good reading habits and protect their eyes as their most precious life gifts.

Dear Sir/ Madam,
I am writing to ask for information about the courses in your school. I am especially interested in the four-week intensive course (强化课程).
I have been studying English for three years at a language school in Madrid, Spain. I’m good at listening, reading and writing. However, my speaking skills need to be improved.
I have looked at the course introduction on your website but there is no information about the dates and price for the course. Are you offering it next month? I would also like to know where your students are from. Are they from different cultures?
Finally, I hope to know what type of accommodations (住处) is available. My sister plans to visit me for one week while I am there. We would prefer to stay together. Would that be possible? By the way, I don’t plan to spend much money on accommodations.
I would be thankful if you could send me the information to mariagomez@gmail.com or call me at 0956-8893.
Thank you for your time.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,

When I was young, I loved and really did well in drawing and art. I won awards, got constant attention, and even saw my face in the newspaper and on television because of my natural ability to draw.
Most people who happen to come across something that they are good at are encouraged to take it and run with it. Of course, my life was no different. From teachers, to principals, to family members, everyone seemed to have a ton of advice to give me in regard to art.
All the while, my true desire was writing. I entered poetry, essay and short-story contests and lost all. It was such a contrast from my artistic competition experience! It was so bad that I had a good friend who told me once, “If you are so good at drawing, why do you even care about writing? Stick to drawing!”
Though well intended, eighteen years later I’m glad I didn’t take his words to heart. Years went by with me still writing and still constantly entering contests. It was not until my first year in college that I finally got honorable mention in a poetry contest. As a writer, I’ve truly grown.
I’m sure there are things in your life that are challenging and yet, rewarding. Endurance, especially when it comes to things you truly love is essential. Take some time to devote some more energy to the thing that didn’t come easy and see what happens.
5. Why did the author get much attention when she was young?
A. She really loved drawing. B. She constantly won awards.
C. She used to watch television. D. She had the ability to read nature.
6. When the author seemed to be good at art, ______.
A. everyone encouraged her to run with it B. her parents knew little about it
C. her teacher told the principal about it D. people wanted to take her advice
7. What do Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The author’s desire to take part in contests. B. The author’s intention to be mentioned.
C. The author’s experience to become a writer. D. The author’s advice to grow up quickly.
8. Which of the following best describes the author?
A. Responsible and calm. B. Talented and determined.
C. Friendly and honest. D. Careful and proud.
C
They say everything is bigger in Texas. While that may be true, some of the best things in Texas are quite small. Here is a case in point: tiny Mount Vernon, a town of just under 3,000 people. But if you do come across Mount Vernon, you might just get an intention to stay. That happens a lot around here, and it’s worth noting how remark able that is.
Tom Wilkinson was born in Mount Vernon 87 years ago and moved back after he retired from his career as a college English professor in Dallas. Like many of his neighbours, Wilkinson can track his ancestors back to the pioneers who settled here in the1870s. And like many, he values the simple life you can’t easily find in big cities. “People are still polite. They hold the door open for you,” he says. “We grow strong roots here!”
Preserving and honouring the past has been key to helping Mount Vernon survive. The residents have restored and reopened some of the empty stores, including the old barbershop, built more than 100 years ago. An old general store was turned into a combination space. Wander in on any given day and you might find a book club discussion or a work session for the local genealogy (家谱) group among the tables of people chatting over cups of coffee and plates of food.
Mount Vernon has the kind of big hearts you tend to find in a small town. For instance, when a local policeman was diagnosed with cancer last year, ten-year-old Lola McKellar set up a lemonade stand to raise money for his treatments. In 2015, when a 350-year flood sent water rushing into local homes, an army of volunteers showed up to get a wheelchair-bound neighbour and his wife to higher ground, and then came back to help others.
9. What does the author think of Mount Vernon?
A. Remote. B. Wealthy. C. Boring. D. Attractive.
10. Why did Tom Wilkinson come back to Mount Vernon?
A. He preferred the simple and natural life. B. He could continue his language teaching.
C. He could live together with his ancestors. D. He could meet more neighbours of his age.
11. What can we infer about people’s way of life in Mount Vernon from Paragraph 3?
A. It is in danger of extinction. B. It is quickly changing over time.
C. It is conservative but harmonious. D. It is being disturbed by the outside world.
12. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The history of Mount Vernon. B. The humanity of Mount Vernon.
C. The volunteers of Mount Vernon. D. The reconstruction of Mount Vernon.
