She said she had gone through the similar hardships, and she was still going through. But she believed she was smart enough to solve them. Therefore, it was important for me to know how excellent I could be and just face challenges with confidence! Then Mom asked for taking a look at my homework.       Hearing my mother's words, I became inspired. Mom took the time to explain the questions patiently so I could totally understand them. When we got a question right each time, we would clap our hands as if I had just made an amazing achievement. By celebrating like this, I learned how to take every challenge, no matter how big or small, as a good chance to build up self confidence.

For the past few years, Iˈve had a hard time learning the subject”可知，作者面临的问题是学习拉丁语有困难。故选A。 25. 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“However, one week we had a Latin test and I was not at all prepared for it. Fearing that I would fail the class, my parents told me to go to my classmate for help.”可知，作者去找同学是为了即将到来的考试寻求帮助。故选D。 26. 词义猜测题。根据第三段中画线单词后的“She would help me with Latin, and Iˈd help her with Chemistry.”可知，这种互相辅导的模式对双方都有好处，因此favorable意为“有利的”，与Advantageous意思相近。故选C。 27. 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Once I started tutoring her, I started to think about my Chemistry work differently, not just how to solve the problems but why they worked and how to explain the reasoning behind them.”可知，作者认为辅导能促使辅导者深入思考问题。故选D。 C 28~31. 这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了睡眠和语言之间的联系可以应用于如何学习任何语言，包括我们的母语。多语梦境中，大脑试图将两种语言联系起来，这有助于学习一门新的语言。 28. 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Even adults still learn about one new word every two days in their first language, but if we are going to have a firm grasp of that new word, we need to link it to our existing knowledge. ˈIn order to do that, we need to have some sleep,ˈ says Gareth Gaskell…”可知，要想牢固掌握新词汇，就需要将它与已有的知识连接起来，而这需要借助睡眠，由此可推知，加雷思可能同意的观点是我们可以在睡觉的时候学习单词。故选B。 29. 细节理解题。根据第三段中“At night, one part of our brain—the hippocampus (海马体)—takes whatever new information it got in the day, and passes it on to other parts of the brain to be stored.”可知，海马体的功能是接收和传递信息。故选D。 30. 推理判断题。根据第四段“So having multilingual dreams… could also have an emotional significance (情感意义). Danuta Barker… suggests that multilingual dreams can express fears and desires around learning a foreign language…”可知，努塔·巴克介绍了多语言梦境的情感意义，由此可推知，努塔·巴克研究情感和梦的关系。故选A。 31. 主旨大意题。根据第一段“It is often said that if we dream in a foreign language, itˈs a sign that we are making progress in learning that language. But is it true?”和下文内容可知，全篇文章在介绍多语言梦境和语言学习的联系，研究者对此进行了分析。由此可知，这篇文章的主旨是多语言梦境是如何与语言学习联系在一起的。故选D。 D 32~35. 【文章大意】本文主要介绍了学习英语的两种方法。 32. 细节理解题。根据第二段中的If you notice, a person migrated (移民) to another country and stayed there for a couple of years and then went back to his home non-native speaking country, the person became so familiar in speaking English. This is the most effective way of learning to speak and write a language unfamiliar to you.（如果你注意到，一个人移民到另一个国家，在那里呆了几年，然后回到家乡（非母语国家），这个人对说英语变得如此熟悉。这是学习说和写一门你不熟悉的语言的最有效的方法。）可知，学习第二语言最有效的方法是​向母语人士学习。故选A。 33. 细节理解题。根据第四段中的Today, there are different language centers offering their services for people to learn the language in your own country.可知，​一种既能负担得起又不出国学习外语的方法是在语言培训中心学习外语。故选B。 34. 根据最后一段内容（如今，作为第二语言学习英语是全球趋势之一。由于大多数商业交易都使用英语，所以你也应该使用英语。否则你将无法跟上未来的趋势。）可知，说明了学习第二语言是当今的一个趋势，是人人都应该做的，否则就跟不上时代的潮流了。所以可知这一段主要告诉我们学习第二语言的重要性。故选D。 35.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的Since the English language is used in most of the business transactions you should be on it too.（由于大多数商业交易都使用英语，所以你也应该使用英语。）可以判断出，学习好外语对将来的就业很有好处。故选D。 第2节 七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 36~40. 【文章大意】本文就在美国讲英语时应该注意的文化习俗等重要事情提了一些建议。 36. 本段首句提出话题Talk about location.，然后可用Americans love to talk about location.延续该话题，指出这条建议的原因和重要性，为下文继续介绍谈论有关地点的话题做铺垫。故选D。 37. 根据前文的 Talk about work.判断，用Americans commonly ask "What do you do?"与之呼应，都是在谈论工作。故选E。 38. 本段谈论运动的话题，根据后文的most Americans understand "American Football", not soccer.判断，用However, they love American sports.与前文构成转折关系，目的是为了更明确的说明问题。故选C。 39. 本段话题是谈论称呼，根据Many Americans prefer first names.判断，美国人更愿意用first name称呼人，用Americans will generally say, "Call me Tom." 作为例子，更加清晰的说明此事。故选G。 40. 该处是下文的主题句（标题），根据下文内容，包括Always shake hands. Smoking is out! 等判断，这些都是在公众场合的行为，用Public behavior.做标题最合适。故选A。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分 30分) 第一节：完形填空(共15小题;每小题 1分，满分15分) 41~55. 【文章大意】本文为记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者从开始了解西班牙语到喜欢并学习西班牙语的过程。虽然过程中存在很多困难，但是作者以极大的耐心和毅力坚持练习，最终掌握了西班牙语，并得出学无止境的感悟的故事。 41. 句意：两个男孩站在我面前，他们在用最甜美的语言说着什么，引起了我的注意。A.strongest最强烈的；B.sweetest最甜美的；C.clearest最清楚的；D.sharpest最锋利的。根据后文“which attracted my attention”可知，这种语言让作者产生了兴趣，因此在作者看来这是最甜美的语言。故选B。 42. 句意：此外，他们教了我第一个西班牙语单词“hola", 不久我们就成了朋友。A. Therefore因此；B. However然而；C. Besides此外；D. Instead相反。根据前后两句话可知，两位男生不仅告诉作者这是西班牙语，而且还教会了作者第一个西班牙单词，句子之间存在一种递进关系。故选C. 43. 句意：在这一年的秋天，我选择了西班牙语作为一门外语课程，这贯穿之后的几年高中生涯。A.chose选择；B.regarded看待；C.accepted接受；D.recognized认出，承认。根据下文“Spanish as a foreign language course throughout the next few years in my high school.”可知，此处指选择课程，故选A。 44. 句意：对于一个愿意尝试的人来说，没有什么是不可能的。A.unusual不寻常的；B.unknown不知道的；C.important重要的；D.impossible不可能的。根据空后“who will try”可知，作者想表达勇于尝试的人没有做不到的事。故选D。 45. 句意：我有一个强烈的愿望要学好西班牙语。A.wish希望，愿望；B.imagination想象力；C.curiosity好奇心；D.background学历。根据上文中的as a foreign language course throughout the next few years in my high school.本句中to learn Spanish well. 及下一句的My strong interest and passion（我强烈的兴趣和热情）可知，作者强烈希望学好西班牙语。故选A。 46. 句意：我强烈的兴趣和热情帮助我取得了成功。A.comment评论；B.graduate毕业；C.succeed成功；D.reflect反射。根据下文Though Spanish trills (颤音) were quite   (48)   for me at the very beginning, I insisted on learning it and repeatedly tried to   (49)   where to place my tongue to pronounce perfect trills.（尽管一开始西班牙语里面的颤音对于我来说很难，但是我坚持学习并且重复尝试去弄明白舌头放置位置来达到完美的发音练习。）可知，作者通过不懈的努力克服学习中遇到的困难，最终掌握了西班牙语。故选C。 47. 句意：熟能生巧，学习一门语言也不例外。A.problem问题，困难；B.use使用；C.gap缺口，差距；D.exception例外。根据下文中作者刻苦练习可知，熟能生巧，学习一门语言也不例外。故选D。 48. 句意：尽管一开始西班牙语里面的颤音对于我来说很难，但是我坚持学习并且重复尝试去弄明白舌头放置位置来达到完美的发音练习。A.meaningful有意义的；B.difficult困难的；C.interesting有趣的；D.dangerous危险的。根据后文作者需要不断地去弄清楚舌位可知，颤音是困难的。故选B。 49. 句意同上。A.figure out弄明白；B.focus on专注于，关注；C.check out结账离开；D.act on对……起作用。根据前文，颤音很难，需要把舌头发在正确的位置才能发出来，所以要先搞清楚舌头的位置，才能发出完美的颤，故选A。 50. 句意：掌握好一门外语，没有短期的解决方案。A.attitude态度；B.entrance入口；C.solution解决方案；D.ticket门票。根据后句“so I practiced more（所以我练习得更多）”可知，学习外语需要不断练习，没有短期的解决方案，故选C。 51. 句意：学习、遗忘和记忆的循环在继续。A.result结果；B.cycle循环；C.task任务；D.goal目标。根据遗忘再记忆可知，练习西班牙语就是不断地学习、遗忘、记忆的过程，循环往复，故选B。 52. 句意：同时，我写邮件给我的西班牙朋友作为练习，抓住一切机会同西班牙语老师以及我在线认识的人们聊天来提升我的西班牙口语。A.decide决定；B.keep保持；C.enjoy享受；D.improve提升。作者在生活中尝试不同的方法去练习学习的语言，目的是为了提升口语能力，故选D。 53. 句意：我是一个有耐心的人，我更喜欢长期的计划，以便学好西班牙语。A.doubt怀疑；B.describe描述；C.prefer更喜欢；D.add增加。根据后句“I believe that success only   (54)   with practice（我相信只有不断的练习以及极大的耐心和毅力才会带来成功。）”可知，作者有耐心，更愿意花更长的时间去进步，故选C。 54. 句意：我相信只有不断的练习以及极大的耐心和毅力才会带来成功。句意：A.comes来；B.deals处理；C.competes竞争；D.communicates交流。固定短语come with伴随……发生，with表示伴随，练习、耐心以及毅力伴随成功发生。故选A。 55. 句意：学无止境！A.playing玩；B.reading读；C.speaking说；D.learning学习。纵观全文，作者讲述的是自己学习的故事，所以最后得到的领悟是：学无止境！故选D。 第二节：语篇语法填空(10个小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分) 56. 考查动词的-ing形式。句意：上周，我们的论坛问你有没有关于使用英语的有趣或奇怪的故事。根据空前介词about 可知，本空应用动词-ing形式作介词about的宾语。故填using。 57．考查不定式。句意：我们没有想到会有这么多的帖子。 expect to do sth.意为“期待做某事；料想做某事”，故本空应用不定式作宾语。故填to get。 58．考查介词。句意：这里有一些我们最喜欢的（帖子）提醒我们，我们在教室里学习的英语与外面的世界的英语是相当不同的！ be different from 意为“与……不同”，故本空应用介词 from。故填from。 59．考查动词的-ed形式。句意：第一个帖子告诉我们，有一天一位叫玛吉的英语老师不能上课了，因为她喉咙痛说话困难。本空作定语修饰名词teacher，teacher 和动词 call之间为逻辑上的被动关系，故本空应用动词-ed形式作定语。故填called。 60．考查原因状语从句。句意参考上题。根据句意可知，此处为因果关系，故本空应用because。故填because。 61．考查名词的数。句意：第二个帖子告诉我们，一位女士说鞋子在第二层（the first floor），而实际上鞋子在第一层（ the ground floor）。根据空后 were 可知，本空应用名词复数形式。故填shoes。 62．考查副词。句意参考上题。由句意可知本空作状语，故本空应用副词actually。故填actually。 63．考查代词。句意：她想知道为什么这位女士给她错误的信息。本空在句中作宾语，故应用代词宾格her。故填her。 64．考查冠词。句意：第三个帖子告诉我们，一个人对他善良的祖父使用了一个贬义词。名词word为可数名词，故本空应用冠词a表泛指。故填a。 65．考查时态。句意：但当他拿回论文时，他发现他的老师写的评论是“不错！”。根据句意可知，此处表示“过去的过去”，故本空应用过去完成时。故填had written。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 应用文写作(满分 15 分) 66.【思路点拨】 本书面表达属于应用文邮件，要求考生给初中同学杨林写一封邮件，针对他觉得英语难、上周英语考试不及格这件事，表达理解，给出英语学习建议并加以鼓励。写作时运用多样高级句式，添加合适衔接词，保证文章逻辑连贯，词数控制在120词左右。 【结构布局】 引言：表达理解杨林英语学习受挫的感受 中心：给出两条英语学习建议并适当补充细节 结尾：给予杨林鼓励，相信坚持就会进步 【亮点词汇】 ①frustration n. 沮丧 ②persistently adv. 坚持不懈地 ③competence n. 能力 【高分句型】 ①What counts most in English study is effective learning strategies rather than blind hard work.（what引导主语从句） ②Only when you reflect carefully on your mistakes can you avoid repeating similar errors.（only置于状语从句前，主句部分倒装） 【拓展词汇】 ①authentic adj. 地道的 ②accumulate v. 积累 ③consistently adv. 持续地 【拓展句型】 ①It is recommended that you listen to short English materials every day, which helps build up your language sense.（It is recommended that虚拟语气 + which引导非限制性定语从句） ②There is no doubt that steady efforts will eventually bring satisfying results.（that引导同位语从句） 【范文】 Dear Yang Lin, I fully appreciate your frustration after failing last week’s English exam and finding English tough to learn, a common situation among high school students.

However, one week we had a Latin test and I was not at all prepared for it. Fearing that I would fail the class, my parents told me to go to my classmate for help. I went to her house and sat down with her, ready for her to make fun of me. But what I found was a patient teacher, one who wanted to help me do better and honestly didnˈt care at all about the gap (差距) in our knowledge. After just a period of hard work and studying, my confidence had already increased. I did better in Latin, and my grade improved, but my friend still faced challenges in Chemistry. Now that I knew how far a little help could go, I offered to help her with some of the knowledge points that she didnˈt understand. From that point on, our tutoring sessions (辅导课程) became more favorable to both sides. She would help me with Latin, and Iˈd help her with Chemistry. From this I was also able to realize how good tutoring was for the tutors themselves, a job I used to think was only good for the person learning. Once I started tutoring her, I started to think about my Chemistry work differently, not just how to solve the problems but why they worked and how to explain the reasoning behind them. So next time youˈre struggling in school with a certain subject, instead of reading the textbook over and over, looking online or just worrying, ask your classmates how they understand the material. 24.What problem did the author have? A. She had difficulty in learning Latin. B. She couldnˈt get along with her classmates. C. She wasnˈt interested in learning languages. D. She failed to balance her time for all subjects. 25.Why did the author go to her classmate? A. She wanted to instruct her classmate in Chemistry. B. She wanted to make up with her classmate. C. She wanted to get away from her parents. D. She wanted to get help for a coming test. 26.What does the underlined word "favorable" in paragraph 3 mean? A. Normal. B. Boring. C. Advantageous. D. Difficult. 27.How does the author think tutoring influences the tutors? A. It helps them make more friends. B. It improves their problem-solving skills. C. It offers them chances to explore a new job. D. It encourages them to think deeply about the problems. C It is often said that if we dream in a foreign language, itˈs a sign that we are making progress in learning that language. But is it true? Before we can look at multilingual (多语言的) dreams, first we need to look at sleep. The link between sleep and language can be applied to how we learn any language, including our mother tongue. Even adults still learn about one new word every two days in their first language, but if we are going to have a firm grasp of that new word, we need to link it to our existing knowledge. "In order to do that, we need to have some sleep," says Gareth Gaskell, a psychology professor at the University of York. Itˈs during sleep that the connection of old and new knowledge happens. At night, one part of our brain—the hippocampus (海马体)—takes whatever new information it got in the day, and passes it on to other parts of the brain to be stored. The role that dreams play in this night-time learning process is still being studied, but itˈs entirely possible that during multilingual dreams, the brain is trying to connect two languages, according to Marc Zuist, researcher at the University Hospital of Psychiatry in Switzerland. So having multilingual dreams could mean that our brain is trying to master a new word or phrase, but it could also have an emotional significance (情感意义). Danuta Barker, a professor of psycholinguistics (心理语言学) at the University of Silesia in Poland, suggests that multilingual dreams can express fears and desires around learning a foreign language, including the wish to be a native-like speaker or to be accepted within a certain community. We clearly still have a lot to learn about multilingual dreams, but one thing seems certain: if youˈre trying to learn a new language, you should definitely sleep on it. 28.Which of the following does Gareth agree with? A. Adults are better at learning. B. We can learn words while sleeping. C. Our existing knowledge is from dreams. D. Multilingual dreams have nothing to do with progress. 29.What is the function of the hippocampus? A. Studying the role of dreams. B. Analyzing the learning process. C. Developing new areas of the brain. D. Absorbing and delivering information. 30.What does Danuta Barker study? A. Emotion and dreams. B. Languages and communities. C. Universities and courses. D. Words and expressions. 31.Whatˈs the main idea of the passage? A. Why we learn a foreign language in the dream. B. Learning languages is completely from sleeping. C. Sleeping plays an important part in the development of brains. D. How multilingual dreams are connected to language learning. D     Learning English as the second language for non-native English speakers is not an easy task. It needs to spend a considerable time before you could speak or write the English language. There are only two ways to learn the English language or any other language you prefer.     The first one needs a lot of money because of the requirements needed. If you notice, a person migrated (移民) to another country and stayed there for a couple of years and then went back to his home non-native speaking country, the person became so familiar in speaking English. This is the most effective way of learning to speak and write a language unfamiliar to you.     The learner learns the language because he/she is forced to do so because there is no other language being used. Not to mention that, the learner should adapt to the environment. It is all started from listening. This is the process how language is acquired if you will stay long in a foreign country.     The second one is the traditional way. You go to school or learning center specialized in teaching English as the second language. Obviously, this is cheaper than the first, but it needs a considerable time before you will learn to familiarize the language. Today, there are different language centers offering their services for people to learn the language in your own country. They brought all the materials needed because, compared to the first one, they're affordable and reasonable.     Nowadays, learning English as the second language is one of the global trends. Since the English language is used in most of the business transactions you should be on it too. Otherwise you will not go along with the future trends that will arise. 32.The most effective way of learning a second language is to ______. A. learn from the native speakers B. spend a lot of time C. open your mouth to practice more D. live in the speaking country several days 33.Now an affordable way to learn a foreign language but not to go abroad is to ______. A. go to a foreign language school B. study in a language center C. communicate with more people D. invite a foreigner as a teacher 34.The last paragraph mainly tells us ______. A. the global trends of the present world B. the difficulty of learning a second language C. the most important way of learning a second language D. the importance of learning a second language 35.From the passage we can learn ______. A. learning foreign languages is easy B. there are many ways to learn foreign languages C. family environment is very helpful for learning foreign languages D. learning foreign languages is good for your future career 第二节 七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。     Speaking English is not only about using proper grammar.

I don't understand it!" Although I couldn't see clearly through my teary eyes, I could still feel my mom's face was filled with concern.     "It's okay. I understand it's hard. You know that I struggled with the same issue before, but it can't decide who you are or how smart you are! Now repeat after me!" Mom said in a kind but demanding voice, "I did it!" She waited for me to follow her. When I tried to speak, the only thing that escaped my mouth was a small sob (抽噎). With one strong loving arm around me, my mom used the other hand to dry the tears that I was no longer able to control.     "Can I see your homework, honey?" As instructed, I slowly handed over the paper. After a short while, she excitedly announced, "You got the fifth question right!" Shrugging (耸肩) my shoulders, I replied, "Yeah, but the rest are probably wrong." Mom smiled, "Although you got some answers wrong, it doesn't make the answer you got right any less important!"     I wanted to believe her. It was almost easy to let her positive words affect me in the moments when it was just her and me. However, every time I was sitting next to the kids of my age and watching them complete work that I couldn't understand, the confidence my mom gave me seemed to disappear suddenly. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。     I told that to my mother, feeling upset. ___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________     Hearing my mother's words, I became inspired. ___________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________ 第1页，共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
