Few people would have guessed that William loved to write poetry in his spare time. William’s passion (热爱) for this hobby began when, one day in a bookshop, he came across a small book of poems that had mistakenly been put in the law section. Reading it, William admired how the author had expressed so much with just a few carefully selected words and then wondered if he himself could develop a similar talent. From childhood, William had always thrown himself into things. So, he soon read the major works of all the great British poets and became familiar with many of Europe’s most famous poets, too. He had a particular admiration for Shakespeare and the German poet Goethe, but his favourite poet was the Irishman William Butler Yeats — the man that he had been named after, his mother proudly reminded him. So, almost from the day that he was first inspired, William had begun writing poems of his own. He did not know if he had any real talent, but he did know that the words flowed both easily and quickly from his pen. He enjoyed putting words together in a way that suggested different meanings — partly because this was exactly the opposite of what he was required to do as a lawyer. He had no name for the collection of poems that he had written and collected over the years. He simply referred to them all as “The Book”. The name, of course, clearly revealed his subconscious (潜意识的) desire that his poems would one day be published. But he had neither the confidence in his own abilities to approach a publisher, nor the desire to read a bad review if the critics did not like his work. William’s wife would often remind him, in that gentle way of hers, that he was old enough now not to care what others thought of him or to avoid doing something simply because he thought he might fail. 4. Why did William appreciate the poetry in the bookshop? A. He himself had written poetry too. B. He liked how the words were used. C. It reminded him of a forgotten hobby. D. It gave him a break from studying law. 5. Which of the following can best describe William? A. Easy-going. B. Ambitious. C. One who lacks willpower. D. One who goes all out. 6. Why did William call his collection of poems “The Book”? A. He hadn’t yet found a good name for it. B. He was advised to do so by a publisher. C. He secretly wanted them to be published. D. He had already written enough to fill an entire book. 7. What do we know about William’s wife? A. She encouraged him to believe in himself. B. She thought that he did not value her opinion. C. She didn’t think he should try to publish his poems. D. She seemed to be the only one who liked his poetry. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】文章讲述了伦敦知名律师William偶然在书店爱上诗歌，开始大量阅读并坚持写诗，但是缺乏勇气投稿出版，他的妻子温柔地鼓励他勇敢尝试。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Reading it, William admired how the author had expressed so much with just a few carefully selected words and then wondered if he himself could develop a similar talent.(读着这本诗集，William很欣赏作者只用寥寥几个精心挑选的文字就表达出丰富内涵，然后他想知道自己是否也能拥有这样的才能。)”可知，William欣赏这本书里的诗歌是因为他喜欢书中文字的运用方式。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“From childhood, William had always thrown himself into things. So, he soon read the major works of all the great British poets and became familiar with many of Europe’s most famous poets, too.(从小时候起，William做事情总是全身心投入。于是，他很快读完了所有英国伟大诗人的主要作品，也熟悉了许多欧洲最著名的诗人。)”可知，William是一个做事全力以赴的人。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“He simply referred to them all as ‘The Book’. The name, of course, clearly revealed his subconscious (潜意识的) desire that his poems would one day be published.(他干脆把所有诗作叫做‘这本书’。当然，这个名字清楚地暴露了他潜意识里的愿望：自己的诗作有一天能够出版。)”可知，把诗集命名为“The Book”是因为他内心暗暗渴望诗作可以被出版。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“William’s wife would often remind him, in that gentle way of hers, that he was old enough now not to care what others thought of him or to avoid doing something simply because he thought he might fail.(William的妻子常常以她温柔的方式提醒他：他现在这个年纪已经足以不用在意别人对他的看法，也不用仅仅因为害怕可能失败就不去做一件事。)”可知，妻子在鼓励他建立自信、勇敢行动。 C Electronic books have changed the way many people read for pleasure. Now online textbooks are changing the way some students learn and some teachers teach. More than one hundred and seventy-five thousand students attend the public schools in Fairfax County, Virginia, outside Washington. Last year, the school system used digital books in fifteen schools. This school year, middle schools and high schools changed from printed to electronic textbooks in their social studies classes. Luke Rosa is a history teacher at Falls Church High School. His students work on laptop computers at school. He explains the idea to them this way, “I mean, it’s just like a regular textbook, except it’s got it all online.” Peter Noonan, an assistant superintendent (助理监督) of schools, said, “The world’s changing. And the online textbooks can change right along with the events that are happening.” Digital books also cost less than printed textbooks, he said. A student named Melanie Reuter said, “I don’t have to carry a textbook around, so that’s nice.” But another student said, “I don’t like it because the Internet sometimes doesn’t work.” Students also need access to the Internet when they are not at school. About ten percent of students in Fairfax County do not have a computer or online access at home. Public libraries in the county have free Internet. There are also after-school computer labs as well as computer clubhouses supported by the county. Middle school student Slieman Hakim is happy about that. He said, “My family only has one computer; my sister and I both do our homework on it. So I come here to do my homework. It’s good.” Other school systems in the area are also considering online textbooks. 8. One of the disadvantages of digital textbooks is that ______. A. they’re more expensive B. they can’t be used if the computer is offline C. they’re soon out of date D. reading online does harm to students’ eyes 9. Why does Slieman Hakim feel happy? A. He is offered a free computer to do his homework. B. He doesn’t have to do his homework at home. C. He has access to the Internet to study at any place. D. He needn’t share a computer with his sister to do homework. 10. What can we learn from the passage? A. All students like digital textbooks because they are new. B. Digital textbooks are more beautiful than paper textbooks. C. Students can do their homework in the computer clubhouses. D. The lessons online are completely different from those in paper textbooks. 11. The passage aims to ______. A. report the use of electronic textbooks in school B. show how to use electronic textbooks C. encourage more schools to use electronic textbooks D. tell readers electronic textbooks will replace regular textbooks 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了数字教科书在学校的应用情况，以及教师和学生对此的态度。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“I don’t like it because the Internet sometimes doesn’t work.(我不喜欢它，因为互联网有时不起作用)”可知，数字教科书的缺点之一是，当互联网不起作用时，数字教科书不能使用。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“There are also after-school computer labs as well as computer clubhouses supported by the county. Middle school student Slieman Hakim is happy about that. He said, “My family only has one computer; my sister and I both do our homework on it. So I come here to do my homework. It’s good.”(该县还支持课后电脑实验室以及电脑俱乐部。中学生斯利曼·哈基姆对此感到高兴。他说：“我家只有一台电脑；我和妹妹都在电脑上做作业。所以我来这里做作业。这很好。”)”可知，斯利曼·哈基姆不需要和妹妹共用一台电脑做作业，他感到高兴。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“There are also after-school computer labs as well as computer clubhouses supported by the county. Middle school student Slieman Hakim is happy about that. He said, “My family only has one computer; my sister and I both do our homework on it. So I come here to do my homework. It’s good.”(该县还支持课后电脑实验室以及电脑俱乐部。中学生斯利曼·哈基姆对此感到高兴。他说：“我家只有一台电脑；我和妹妹都在电脑上做作业。所以我来这里做作业。这很好。”)”可知，该县支持电脑俱乐部，学生可以在电脑俱乐部写家庭作业。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Now online textbooks are changing the way some students learn and some teachers teach.(现在，网络教科书正在改变一些学生和一些教师的学习方式)”、“Last year, the school system used digital books in fifteen schools. This school year, middle schools and high schools changed from printed to electronic textbooks in their social studies classes.(去年，学校系统在15所学校使用了数字图书。本学年，中学和高中的社会研究课程从印刷版教科书改为电子版教科书)”以及文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了数字教科书在学校的应用情况，以及教师和学生对此的态度，所以本文旨在报告学校使用电子教科书的情况。故选A。 D Whom should you marry? Where should you live? How should you spend your time? For centuries, people have relied on their gut instincts (直觉) to figure out the answers to these life-changing questions. Now, though, there is a better way. We are living through a data explosion, as vast amounts of information about all aspects of human behavior have become more and more accessible. We can use this big data to help determine the best course to chart. There has long been overwhelming—and often surprising—evidence that algorithms (算法) can be much better than people at making difficult decisions. Researchers have collected data on various kinds of choices people make, the information they base those choices on, and how things turn out. They have found, for example, that a simple data-driven algorithm would have been better than judges at deciding whether a defendant should stay in prison or be released; better than doctors at deciding whether a patient should undergo surgery; and better than school principals at deciding which teachers should be promoted. The power of data analysis has been proved in the sports and business worlds, too. As made famous by the book and movie Moneyball, baseball teams found that algorithms were better than scouts (星探) at picking players, and better than managers at picking strategies. In finance, the hedge fund Renaissance Technologies dramatically defeated competitors by seeking out patterns in stock market data and using them to inform its investment strategy. Tech firms in Silicon Valley have found that data from experiments provides better insights into how to design their websites than designers could. These are the early days of the data revolution in decision-making. I am not claiming that we can completely count on algorithms to make our lifestyle choices, though we might get to that point in the future. I am claiming instead that we can all dramatically improve our decision-making by consulting evidence mined from thousands or millions of people who faced dilemmas similar to ours. And we can do that now. 12. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Big data is a double-edged sword. B. Data revolution will change people’s life. C. Big data is helpful in making important decisions. D. Algorithms behaves better than people in many fields. 13. According to paragraph 2, algorithms might NOT defeat people in_________. A. court rulings B. job promotions C. operative estimation D. teaching practices 14. What is the writing purpose of paragraph 3? A. To provide further evidence. B. To show potential applications. C. To encourage the use of big data. D. To explain how to use algorithms. 15. Which of the following will the author most probably agree with? A. Algorithms offer perfect advice now. B. Big data will certainly cause a revolution. C. Big data can make up for our lack of experience. D. Algorithms are bound to be fully trusted in the future. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述随着大数据的普及，我们可以利用大数据来改善我们的决策。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“We are living through a data explosion, as vast amounts of information about all aspects of human behavior have become more and more accessible. We can use this big data to help determine the best course to chart.(我们正生活在一个数据爆炸的时代，关于人类行为各个方面的大量信息变得越来越容易获取。我们可以利用这些大数据来帮助确定绘制地图的最佳路线。)”可知，数据革命将改变人们的生活。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“They have found, for example, that a simple data-driven algorithm would have been better than judges at deciding whether a defendant should stay in prison or be released; better than doctors at deciding whether a patient should undergo surgery; and better than school principals at deciding which teachers should be promoted.(例如，他们发现，一个简单的数据驱动算法在决定被告是应该留在监狱还是释放时，会比法官更好；在决定病人是否应该接受手术方面优于医生；而且比学校校长更擅长决定哪些老师应该升职。)”可知，数据算法只有“教学实践”方面有可能不会打败人类。故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The power of data analysis has been proved in the sports and business worlds, too. As made famous by the book and movie Moneyball, baseball teams found that algorithms were better than scouts(星探) at picking players, and better than managers at picking strategies. In finance, the hedge fund Renaissance Technologies dramatically defeated competitors by seeking out patterns in stock market data and using them to inform its investment strategy. Tech firms in Silicon Valley have found that data from experiments provides better insights into how to design their websites than designers could.(数据分析的力量在体育和商业领域也得到了证明。正如书和电影《点球成金》所述，棒球队发现，算法在挑选球员方面比球探好，在挑选策略方面比经理好。在金融领域，对冲基金文艺复兴科技公司通过从股市数据中寻找规律，并利用这些规律制定投资策略，一举击败了竞争对手。硅谷的科技公司发现，实验数据比设计师更能帮助他们了解如何设计网站。)”可知，算法在体育和商业领域，也可以帮助人们更好地做出决策，此段的写作目的是提供进一步的证据。故选A项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I am claiming instead that we can all dramatically improve our decision-making by consulting evidence mined from thousands or millions of people who faced dilemmas similar to ours. And we can do that now.(相反，我认为我们都可以通过咨询从成千上万与我们面临类似困境的人那里获得的证据来显著改善我们的决策。我们现在就能做到。)”可知，作者应该赞成“大数据可以弥补我们经验的不足。”这一观点。故选C项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面的短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 If you’re hoping to learn how to become a poet, here are some tips that will set you up for success. Learn to write poetry in a writing class. Whether you’re a beginner or someone who’s been writing for years, a writing class is always one of the best ways to learn to write poetry. Writing classes are especially valuable as they are designed and taught by writers who are currently publishing and have experience in the contemporary (当代的) poetry landscape. There may be shelves of books on the craft (技巧) of writing at the bookstore. ___16___ Writing classes also offer the structure and guidance that most beginning writers — and even writers with a few years of experience benefit from. ___17___ Writing is difficult, but seems much less impossible when you’re not doing it alone. Read. To learn writing techniques from published work, it is important to read critically. ___18___ You should ask questions about what a poem is doing and how it is doing it. Reading is an opportunity to expand your grasp of what poetry is and can be. Generate writing. As you learn how to write poetry, writing often goes hand in hand with reading. Generating writing, however, is often easier said than done. ___19___ Writing is a practice, which means the more you do it, the smoother the process will be. ___20___ The writing journey can sometimes feel lonely, and the path to becoming a poet can also feel directionless. In times like these, I find learning about different poets’ life journeys particularly encouraging. It also shows you that there’s no one way to become a poet. A. Look for models. B. Get curious about the field. C. Writing courses also offer a supportive community. D. It can be especially difficult if you’re just starting out. E. This often means slowing down to seriously consider a poem. F. It’s important for you to learn about existing literary traditions and practices. G. However, nothing beats the personalized tips that a working writer can give you. 【答案】16. G 17. C 18. E 19. D 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要给出了如何成为诗人的几点实用建议。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Writing classes are especially valuable as they are designed and taught by writers who are currently publishing and have experience in the contemporary (当代的) poetry landscape. There may be shelves of books on the craft (技巧) of writing at the bookstore.(写作课程尤为宝贵，因为它们由目前正在出版作品、且在当代诗歌领域拥有经验的作家设计和教授。书店里可能满架关于写作技巧的书籍。)”可知，空处应该指出正在出版作品、且在当代诗歌领域拥有经验的作家在写作课上给出的建议比书店的书更为重要。故选项G. However, nothing beats the personalized tips that a working writer can give you.(然而，没有什么比一个职业作家可以为您提供的个性化建议更好的了。)与上句形成转折关系，强调了职业作家在写作课上给出建议的重要性，符合语境。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Writing classes also offer the structure and guidance that most beginning writers — and even writers with a few years of experience benefit from.(写作课程还提供了大多数初学者——甚至是有几年经验的作者都能从中受益的结构与指导。)”和下文“Writing is difficult, but seems much less impossible when you’re not doing it alone.(写作很难，但当你不是独自一人时，似乎就没那么不可能了。)”可知，空处应该在上文的基础上，补充说明写作课程的作用，选项C. Writing courses also offer a supportive community.(写作课程还提供了一个支持性的社区。)说明了这一点，并与下文中的“when you’re not doing it alone”相呼应。 【18题详解】 根据上文“To learn writing techniques from published work, it is important to read critically.(要从已出版的作品中学习写作技巧，批判性地阅读至关重要。)”和下文“You should ask questions about what a poem is doing and how it is doing it.(你应该问一问这首诗在做什么，以及它是如何做到的。)”可知，空处应该解释说明什么是批判性阅读。选项E. This often means slowing down to seriously consider a poem.(这通常意味着放慢速度，去认真思考一首诗。)中的This指代上句中的to read critically，解释了批判性阅读的含义，并引出了下文中的具体做法，语意衔接合理。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Generating writing, however, is often easier said than done.(然而，动笔创作往往是说起来容易做起来难。)”和下文“Writing is a practice, which means the more you do it, the smoother the process will be.(写作是一种练习，这意味着你做得越多，过程就会越顺利。)”可知，空处应该强调开始写作的困难，选项D. It can be especially difficult if you’re just starting out.(如果您刚刚开始，这可能会特别困难。)指出了刚开始做尤为困难，承上启下，符合语境。 【20题详解】 空处为段落主题句，参考其他段落主题可知，应用祈使句。根据下文“In times like these, I find learning about different poets’ life journeys particularly encouraging. It also shows you that there’s no one way to become a poet.(在这样的时刻，我发现了解不同诗人的生命历程特别令人鼓舞。它还向你展示了，成为诗人并没有唯一的方法。)”可知，该段主要建议大家要向不同诗人学习，故选项A. Look for models.(寻找榜样。)符合段落主题。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面的短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Have you seen people who take pictures of food for more than 10 minutes before eating? How about those who beautify their selfies (自拍) so much that they can’t be ___21___? There must be one or more who ___22___ in your social media. No matter ___23___ they choose to share, they share the best but the most unreal. Take my friend Chen as an example. Every time we went to a restaurant, she would not take a ___24___ until all the dishes we ordered were on the table. Then, she would spend five minutes on ___25___ the dishes in a seemingly random but in fact arranged order. Then the most important part: taking pictures. After that, she would choose one of the ___26___ and click in the filter (过滤软件) app. The food eventually looked 10 times more delicious than it really was, but we had no ___27___ to really enjoy it — it all went cold. Actually Chen’s real life is much less elegant. For example, she hates to wash the dishes, so she leaves them in the sink for days. Many people care too much about others’ opinions and try hard to ___28___ others. They find it hard to be ___29___ and to accept themselves, and thus they are afraid to show their real life on social media. What they are trying to prove is ___30___ what they lack in reality. But this will not bring any change to reality, as they still ___31___ the same old pattern of life. If they really want an elegant life, they should put more ___32___ into achieving it ___33___ fabricating (伪造) it. Being more confident, ___34___ themselves and trying their best to be better is much more meaningful than ___35___ their life on social media. 21. A. envied B. admired C. recognized D. defeated 22.

C 【解析】 【导语】文章谈论了一种社会现象：很多人在社交媒体上过度美化自己分享的内容，却不敢展示真实的生活。作者认为与其去伪造精致的假象，不如付出努力去真正拥有美好的生活。 【21题详解】 考查动词。句意：还有那些把自拍美化到认不出来的人呢？A. envied羡慕；B. admired钦佩；C. recognized认出；D. defeated打败。根据上文“beautify their selfies (自拍) so much”可知，修图过度以至于无法被认出来。 【22题详解】 考查动词。句意：在你的社交媒体里一定存在一个或多个这样的人。A. exist存在；B. survive幸存；C. flood淹没；D. spot发现。根据上文“Have you seen people”可知，这类人存在于社交媒体之中。 【23题详解】 考查让步状语从句。句意：无论他们选择分享什么，他们分享的都是最好但最不真实的一面。A. how怎样；B. what什么；C. where哪里；D. whom谁。根据下文“they choose to share”可知，此处缺少分享的事物，应用what作share的宾语。 【24题详解】 考查名词。句意：每次我们去餐馆，在我们点的所有菜上桌之前，她不会吃一口。A. bow鞠躬；B. break休息；C. breath呼吸；D. bite一口。根据下文“until all the dishes we ordered were on the table”可知，此处指不会吃一口。take a bite意为“咬一口，吃一点”。 【25题详解】 考查动词。句意：然后，她会花五分钟把菜品摆放成看似随意实则精心布置的样子。A. cooking烹饪；B. washing清洗；C. setting摆放；D. collecting收集。根据下文“in a seemingly random but in fact arranged order”可知，是摆放菜品。 【26题详解】 考查名词。句意：在那之后，她会挑选其中一张照片，点开滤镜软件。A. dishes菜肴；B. restaurants餐馆；C. pictures照片；D. tables桌子。根据上文“taking pictures”可知，拍完照之后要挑选照片。 【27题详解】 考查名词。句意：食物最后看起来比实际美味十倍，但我们没有机会好好享用它——菜全都凉了。A. chance机会；B. choice选择；C. excuse借口；D. reason理由。根据下文“it all went cold”可知，没有机会去享用饭菜。 【28题详解】 考查动词。句意：很多人过于在意别人的看法，拼命去取悦他人。A. comfort安慰；B. please取悦；C. inspire激励；D. discourage使泄气。根据上文“care too much about others’ opinions”可知，在意别人眼光，想要讨别人欢心。 【29题详解】 考查形容词。句意：他们发现很难自信起来、很难接纳自己，因此害怕在社交媒体上展示真实的生活。A. independent独立的；B. generous慷慨的；C. responsible负责的；D. confident自信的。根据下文“afraid to show their real life”可知，他们不够自信。 【30题详解】 考查副词。句意：他们竭力想要证明的，恰恰就是自己在现实中所缺少的东西。A. rarely很少；B. hardly几乎不；C. exactly恰好，恰恰；D. nearly几乎。根据上文第一段“they share the best but the most unreal”可知，网上展示出来的光鲜，恰好就是现实所缺失的。 【31题详解】 考查动词。句意：但是这并不会给现实带来任何改变，因为他们依然沿袭原来固有的生活模式。A. question质疑；B. dislike不喜欢；C. doubt怀疑；D. follow遵循，沿袭。根据下文“the same old pattern of life”可知，依旧遵循旧的生活模式。 【32题详解】 考查名词。句意：如果他们真的想要优雅的生活，就应该投入更多的努力去实现它，而不是去伪造它。A. effort努力；B. ambitions抱负；C. feelings感情；D. money金钱。根据下文“into achieving it”可知，应付出更多努力，put effort into doing sth.意为“付出努力做某事”。 【33题详解】 考查短语。句意：如果他们真的想要优雅的生活，就应该投入更多的努力去实现它，而不是去伪造它。A. other than除了；B. more than多于；C. rather than而不是；D. less than少于。根据下文“fabricating (伪造) it”可知，前后是取舍关系：要实干，不要造假。 【34题详解】 考查动词。句意：更加自信、接纳自我并且尽力变得更好，远比在社交媒体上美化自己的生活要有意义得多。A. identifying识别；B. accepting接纳；C. persuading劝说；D. amusing使开心。根据上文第三段“to accept themselves”可知，是接纳自己。 【35题详解】 考查动词。句意：更加自信、接纳自我并且尽力变得更好，远比在社交媒体上美化自己的生活要有意义得多。A. simplifying简化；B. ruining毁掉；C. beautifying美化；D. worsening使恶化。根据上文第一段“beautify their selfies (自拍)”可知，此处呼应文章开头过度美化照片和生活的现象。 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Twenty years ago, the idea of sharing our lives so ____36____ (open) with the world was unheard of. However, for young people today it ____37____ (consider) completely normal to share pictures of their lives and interact online every day However, ____38____ concerns people is that too much time on social media may have some negative effects. Researchers measured people's attitudes and feelings before and after visiting social media sites. They found that the more time people spent on social media, the more unhappy they became. There are a number of reasons for this. When ____39____ (surf) the social media, people often see photographs and stories showing beautiful holidays, fun parties and fashionable clothes. People rarely post negative stories or bad pictures, ____40____ can be misleading.

If we can do that, we can protect ____45____ (we) and enjoy our lives. 【答案】36. openly 37. is considered 38. what 39. surfing 40. which 41. worse 42. The 43. popularity 44. to live 45. ourselves 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。主要解释了人们花在社交媒体上的时间越多，就越不快乐的原因以及应对这种情况的方法。 【36题详解】 考查副词。句意：20年前，如此公开地与世界分享我们的生活是闻所未闻的。此空修饰动词share，应用副词，作状语，结合句意“公开地”，故填openly。 【37题详解】 考查时态和语态。句意：然而，对于如今的年轻人来说，每天在网上分享自己生活的照片和互动被认为是完全正常的。分析句子结构，此空是句子谓语，it是形式主语，动词不定式是真正的主语。根据时间状语today以及句意，可知此处描述的是现在的客观情况，应用一般现在时，且“在网上分享照片和互动”是“被认为”正常，所以此空用一般现在时的被动，结合主语it，故填is considered。 【38题详解】 考查名词性从句。句意：然而，人们担心的是太多的时间在社交媒体上可能会有一些负面影响。分析句子结构可知，此空引导主语从句concerns people，从句中缺少主语，且根据句意此空表示“人们担心的事”，没有范围限制，所以用连接代词what引导，故填what。 【39题详解】 考查状语从句省略。句意：当人们浏览社交媒体上的内容时，人们经常看到展现美丽的假期、有趣的派对和时尚的衣服的照片和故事。when引导时间状语从句，根据句意，从句完整表达为：people are surfing the social media，从句主语和主句主语都是people，且从句谓语含有be动词are，可以省略从句的主语和are，也就是when surfing，故填surfing。 【40题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：人们很少发布负面的故事或糟糕的图片，这可能会产生误导。分析句子结构和句意可知，此空引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是前面一整句话，在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which代替，故填which。 【41题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：相比之下，他们可能认为自己的生活更糟糕。此空是形容词作表语，再根据句意，有比较的含义，所以此空用bad的比较级worse，故填worse。 【42题详解】 考查冠词。句意：帖子上的“赞”和评论数量让他们对自己的受欢迎程度感到焦虑。固定搭配the number of“……的数量”，符合句意，故填The。 【43题详解】 考查名词。句意：参见上题。此空是介词about的宾语，前有形容词性物主代词their，此空应用名词popularity，且是不可数名词，故填popularity。 【44题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：我们不必断开与互联网的连接才能过上幸福的生活，但我们应该意识到，我们看到的图片和读到的故事只是大部分生活中的一小部分。分析句子结构可知，空前句子结构完整，所以此处应用所给动词的非谓语动词形式，结合句意，此处表示目的，所以用动词不定式做目的状语，故填to live。 【45题详解】 考查代词。句意：如果我们能做到这一点，我们就能保护自己，享受生活。此空是protect的宾语，且主语和宾语是同一个人称，应用反身代词作宾语，故填ourselves。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 假设你是晨光中学的李华，为配合学校的“社交媒体脱瘾”活动，你校英语社团的微信公众号开展 了以“Social Media Detox（脱瘾）”为题的征文活动。现请你投稿，文章内容应包括： 1.脱瘾活动的目的； 2.你的建议和措施； 3.你的感受。 注意：1.词数100左右； 2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3.文章开头已给出，不计入总词数。 Social Media Detox January 22, 2021 By Li Hua With the development of science and technology, there appear an increasing number of social media apps. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version Social Media Detox January 22, 2021 By Li Hua With the development of science and technology, there appear an increasing number of social media apps.

The doctors talked about the potential side effects of the drugs that might occur over the next two years of treatment. When our parents told our sister she had cancer, her biggest concern was losing her hair. “Will all my hair really fall out? Will people make fun of me?” she asked, her voice filled with worry. “Don’t worry,” I later told her in secret. “When you lose your hair, I’ll shave mine with a razor (剃刀) and we’ll both be bald (秃头的). We’ ll walk down the street proudly with our bald heads held high. We’ll swim, go to parks and play at the beach with our bald heads.” “Promise?” she asked. “Promise,” I replied, thinking it was a small sacrifice (牺牲) as long as it could cheer her and help her recover. The days and weeks of treatment began to affect her little body. As the doctors had warned, she began to lose her hair. At first, I found some on her clothes and towels. A short time later, I found her hair on the backs of the sofas and chairs she’d been on. Before long, there were masses of hair on her pillow every morning as she awoke from her restless sleep. A few days later, she was finally completely bald. Her head was very smooth and soft as I held her. It reminded me of that wonderful time when I held her in my arms and was amazed at how lucky I was to have such a beautiful and healthy baby sister. Her bald head was beautiful, but it also showed the signs of her battle with cancer. One afternoon at home, I thought it was time to shave my head. However, it was then that I began seriously worrying about something. How ugly would I become when I was bald? Would my parents — who always encouraged us to maintain a certain image — scold (责备) me for having my head shaved? Would people, especially my classmates, make fun of me? 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I was looking at myself in the mirror when my sister approached. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “It’s beautiful.

Her big, innocent eyes searched my face, filled with both curiosity and a hint of admiration. “Are you really going to do it?” she asked softly, her voice breaking the silence. I took a deep breath, feeling a mix of fear and determination. “Yes, I am,” I replied, forcing a smile. “She clapped her hands and squealed, “We’ll be twins!” The first few strokes felt strange, but with each pass of the razor, I felt lighter, as if I were shedding not just my hair, but also my fears and insecurities. “It’s beautiful. Please also help shave our heads,” our parents smiled. Their approval warmed my heart, and I could see the love in their eyes as they watched this moment unfold. As we stood in front of the mirror, I realized that our bald heads symbolized more than just a physical change; they represented our unity and strength in facing her battle against cancer. We were not just a family; we were warriors, ready to take on whatever challenges lay ahead, side by side. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者的妹妹在癌症治疗期间，妹妹的头发脱落严重，她开始担心自己会不会掉光头发，会不会被人取笑。为了安慰妹妹，作者以及父母承诺会剃光头发，一起面对困境的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当我妹妹走近时，我正在照镜子。”可知，第一段可描写作者剃头发的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“这是美丽的。也请帮我们剃光头吧，父母笑着说。”可知，第二段可描写作者一家人为了妹妹都剃了头发以及作者的感受。 2.续写线索：作者正在照镜子——妹妹问作者是否真的剃头发——作者剃头发的经过——父母也决定加入进来——最终看到的情形——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①承担：take on/undertake ②意识到：realize/be aware of ③代表：represent/be on behalf of 情绪类 ①害怕：fear/scare ②感觉轻松：feel light/feel relaxed 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B A graduate of London’s best law school, William was regarded by many in his field as one of the best lawyers (律师) in London. Few people would have guessed that William loved to write poetry in his spare time. William’s passion (热爱) for this hobby began when, one day in a bookshop, he came across a small book of poems that had mistakenly been put in the law section. Reading it, William admired how the author had expressed so much with just a few carefully selected words and then wondered if he himself could develop a similar talent. From childhood, William had always thrown himself into things. So, he soon read the major works of all the great British poets and became familiar with many of Europe’s most famous poets, too. He had a particular admiration for Shakespeare and the German poet Goethe, but his favourite poet was the Irishman William Butler Yeats — the man that he had been named after, his mother proudly reminded him. So, almost from the day that he was first inspired, William had begun writing poems of his own. He did not know if he had any real talent, but he did know that the words flowed both easily and quickly from his pen. He enjoyed putting words together in a way that suggested different meanings — partly because this was exactly the opposite of what he was required to do as a lawyer. He had no name for the collection of poems that he had written and collected over the years. He simply referred to them all as “The Book”. The name, of course, clearly revealed his subconscious (潜意识的) desire that his poems would one day be published. But he had neither the confidence in his own abilities to approach a publisher, nor the desire to read a bad review if the critics did not like his work. William’s wife would often remind him, in that gentle way of hers, that he was old enough now not to care what others thought of him or to avoid doing something simply because he thought he might fail. 4. Why did William appreciate the poetry in the bookshop? A. He himself had written poetry too. B. He liked how the words were used. C. It reminded him of a forgotten hobby. D. It gave him a break from studying law. 5. Which of the following can best describe William? A. Easy-going. B. Ambitious. C. One who lacks willpower. D. One who goes all out. 6. Why did William call his collection of poems “The Book”? A. He hadn’t yet found a good name for it. B. He was advised to do so by a publisher. C. He secretly wanted them to be published. D. He had already written enough to fill an entire book. 7. What do we know about William’s wife? A. She encouraged him to believe in himself. B. She thought that he did not value her opinion. C. She didn’t think he should try to publish his poems. D. She seemed to be the only one who liked his poetry. C Electronic books have changed the way many people read for pleasure. Now online textbooks are changing the way some students learn and some teachers teach. More than one hundred and seventy-five thousand students attend the public schools in Fairfax County, Virginia, outside Washington. Last year, the school system used digital books in fifteen schools. This school year, middle schools and high schools changed from printed to electronic textbooks in their social studies classes. Luke Rosa is a history teacher at Falls Church High School. His students work on laptop computers at school. He explains the idea to them this way, “I mean, it’s just like a regular textbook, except it’s got it all online.” Peter Noonan, an assistant superintendent (助理监督) of schools, said, “The world’s changing. And the online textbooks can change right along with the events that are happening.” Digital books also cost less than printed textbooks, he said. A student named Melanie Reuter said, “I don’t have to carry a textbook around, so that’s nice.” But another student said, “I don’t like it because the Internet sometimes doesn’t work.” Students also need access to the Internet when they are not at school. About ten percent of students in Fairfax County do not have a computer or online access at home. Public libraries in the county have free Internet. There are also after-school computer labs as well as computer clubhouses supported by the county. Middle school student Slieman Hakim is happy about that. He said, “My family only has one computer; my sister and I both do our homework on it. So I come here to do my homework. It’s good.” Other school systems in the area are also considering online textbooks. 8. One of the disadvantages of digital textbooks is that ______. A. they’re more expensive B. they can’t be used if the computer is offline C. they’re soon out of date D. reading online does harm to students’ eyes 9. Why does Slieman Hakim feel happy? A. He is offered a free computer to do his homework. B. He doesn’t have to do his homework at home. C. He has access to the Internet to study at any place. D. He needn’t share a computer with his sister to do homework. 10. What can we learn from the passage? A. All students like digital textbooks because they are new. B. Digital textbooks are more beautiful than paper textbooks. C. Students can do their homework in the computer clubhouses. D. The lessons online are completely different from those in paper textbooks. 11. The passage aims to ______. A. report the use of electronic textbooks in school B. show how to use electronic textbooks C. encourage more schools to use electronic textbooks D. tell readers electronic textbooks will replace regular textbooks D Whom should you marry? Where should you live? How should you spend your time? For centuries, people have relied on their gut instincts (直觉) to figure out the answers to these life-changing questions. Now, though, there is a better way. We are living through a data explosion, as vast amounts of information about all aspects of human behavior have become more and more accessible. We can use this big data to help determine the best course to chart. There has long been overwhelming—and often surprising—evidence that algorithms (算法) can be much better than people at making difficult decisions. Researchers have collected data on various kinds of choices people make, the information they base those choices on, and how things turn out. They have found, for example, that a simple data-driven algorithm would have been better than judges at deciding whether a defendant should stay in prison or be released; better than doctors at deciding whether a patient should undergo surgery; and better than school principals at deciding which teachers should be promoted. The power of data analysis has been proved in the sports and business worlds, too. As made famous by the book and movie Moneyball, baseball teams found that algorithms were better than scouts (星探) at picking players, and better than managers at picking strategies. In finance, the hedge fund Renaissance Technologies dramatically defeated competitors by seeking out patterns in stock market data and using them to inform its investment strategy. Tech firms in Silicon Valley have found that data from experiments provides better insights into how to design their websites than designers could. These are the early days of the data revolution in decision-making.

The doctors talked about the potential side effects of the drugs that might occur over the next two years of treatment. When our parents told our sister she had cancer, her biggest concern was losing her hair. “Will all my hair really fall out? Will people make fun of me?” she asked, her voice filled with worry. “Don’t worry,” I later told her in secret. “When you lose your hair, I’ll shave mine with a razor (剃刀) and we’ll both be bald (秃头的). We’ ll walk down the street proudly with our bald heads held high. We’ll swim, go to parks and play at the beach with our bald heads.” “Promise?” she asked. “Promise,” I replied, thinking it was a small sacrifice (牺牲) as long as it could cheer her and help her recover. The days and weeks of treatment began to affect her little body. As the doctors had warned, she began to lose her hair. At first, I found some on her clothes and towels. A short time later, I found her hair on the backs of the sofas and chairs she’d been on. Before long, there were masses of hair on her pillow every morning as she awoke from her restless sleep. A few days later, she was finally completely bald. Her head was very smooth and soft as I held her. It reminded me of that wonderful time when I held her in my arms and was amazed at how lucky I was to have such a beautiful and healthy baby sister. Her bald head was beautiful, but it also showed the signs of her battle with cancer. One afternoon at home, I thought it was time to shave my head. However, it was then that I began seriously worrying about something. How ugly would I become when I was bald? Would my parents — who always encouraged us to maintain a certain image — scold (责备) me for having my head shaved? Would people, especially my classmates, make fun of me? 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I was looking at myself in the mirror when my sister approached. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “It’s beautiful. Please also help shave our heads,” our parents smiled. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
