Autumn on a cider farm smells like apples. The rich, deep and fruity smell of apples will attract you.
“It is really a wonderful time, one of the most beautiful times for the farm,” Matilda Temperley points out as we enjoy the sight of the trees with apples, relax in the cool morning light and bathe in a light mist that appears around the farm.
While the Temperleys have been farming here since the 1960s, cider has been made here for hundreds of years, with the area famous for its apples and the quality of cider it produces.
“We have a total of about 105 different kinds of apples on the farm, but we use 40 main kinds in our cider,” Matilda explains as we head down a path.“Harvesting starts in September with pears and eating apples, and then the main cider apple harvest starts in October and runs through until Christmas.”
As we walk past the trees, the different apples are close to our eyes and so many apples are on the trees. Matilda picks up a small, yellowy-green apple from the ground as we walk, taking a bite before tossing the core into the trees.
We reach a few rows of trees that look different from the others. These trees are thick with small branches and small red apples.“They are called’Stoke Red’. You can always recognize them because they look like big olive trees and grow like weeds,” she explains.
“Living among apple trees and enjoying the smell of cider, what a pleasant life it is!”I say to myself while walking among apple trees with Matilda.

Each year, thousands of people are attracted to the unique “firefall” in Yosemite National Park in California. The amazing “firefall” comes to life only when there is enough water from the melting (融化) snow to keep the waterfall flowing and when the light of the setting sun hits the water at the right angle (角度). This waterfall appearing to be on fire can only been seen for a short time in February on clear sunny days.
This year, the weather isn’t stopping the “firefall” from happening, but it is making the journey to see it more difficult. “What should have been a 10-minute walk turned into a two-hour hike through deep snow,” photographer Ryan Fitzsimons said about his recent trip to see the view. “Our clothes were all wet when we got to a viewing site. But the heavy snow made the sight much more beautiful since the waterfall was much bigger this year.”
Another photographer Andy Heitz was making his first trip to see the “firefall”. He had to wait five hours in the cold for his turn to take a picture. “I got to the site at about 12:10 at noon. The place was already filled with hundreds of people waiting to see and photograph the ‘firefall’. I was so lucky that I shot a really wonderful picture,” he said. “You know, only on a few days in February when the sun sets down at the perfect angle to shine can we see this amazing ‘firefall’.”
The “firefall” should continue to be there from 20 to 24 February. But park officials said that there was no promise that visitors would see it on any given day.
16. When might be the best time to take pictures of the “firefall” in February?
A. Early in the morning. B. At noon.
C. Late in the afternoon. D. At night.
17. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. Heavy rain made the “firefall” hard to be seen.
B. Photographers were not satisfied with the sight.
C. The snowy weather made the view enjoyable.
D. Visitors spent less time getting to the viewing site.
18. Why might the “firefall” disappear between 20 to 24 February this year?
A. There wasn’t any fire. B. It might be too cloudy.
C. The waterfall might not freeze. D. The snow might melt too fast.
19. What is the main purpose of this text?
A. To introduce an attraction. B. To give suggestions for a trip.
C. To advertise a park in the US. D. To explain what is a “firefall”.
20. On which page of a newspaper can we probably read the text?
A. Technology. B. Sports. C. History. D. Geography.

【5题详解】
句意:突然间,男孩成了同情的对象,而不是被嘲笑。

【6题详解】
句意:老师立刻把他带下楼,在晾裤子的时候让他穿上运动短裤。

【8题详解】
句意:相反,她感到很开心、很舒服,因为她尽最大的努力帮助了男孩。

Each year, thousands of people are attracted to the unique “firefall” in Yosemite National Park in California. The amazing “firefall” comes to life only when there is enough water from the melting (融化) snow to keep the waterfall flowing and when the light of the setting sun hits the water at the right angle (角度). This waterfall appearing to be on fire can only been seen for a short time in February on clear sunny days.
This year, the weather isn’t stopping the “firefall” from happening, but it is making the journey to see it more difficult. “What should have been a 10-minute walk turned into a two-hour hike through deep snow,” photographer Ryan Fitzsimons said about his recent trip to see the view. “Our clothes were all wet when we got to a viewing site. But the heavy snow made the sight much more beautiful since the waterfall was much bigger this year.”
Another photographer Andy Heitz was making his first trip to see the “firefall”. He had to wait five hours in the cold for his turn to take a picture. “I got to the site at about 12:10 at noon. The place was already filled with hundreds of people waiting to see and photograph the ‘firefall’. I was so lucky that I shot a really wonderful picture,” he said. “You know, only on a few days in February when the sun sets down at the perfect angle to shine can we see this amazing ‘firefall’.”
The “firefall” should continue to be there from 20 to 24 February. But park officials said that there was no promise that visitors would see it on any given day.
16. When might be the best time to take pictures of the “firefall” in February?
A. Early in the morning. B. At noon.
C. Late in the afternoon. D. At night.
17. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. Heavy rain made the “firefall” hard to be seen.
B. Photographers were not satisfied with the sight.
C. The snowy weather made the view enjoyable.
D. Visitors spent less time getting to the viewing site.
18. Why might the “firefall” disappear between 20 to 24 February this year?
A. There wasn’t any fire. B. It might be too cloudy.
C. The waterfall might not freeze. D. The snow might melt too fast.
19. What is the main purpose of this text?
A. To introduce an attraction. B. To give suggestions for a trip.
C. To advertise a park in the US. D. To explain what is a “firefall”.
20. On which page of a newspaper can we probably read the text?
A. Technology. B. Sports. C. History. D. Geography.
【答案】16. C 17. C 18. B 19. A 20. D

词句猜测题。根据“As hours passed, Dorothy slowly got over her fear. She finally fell asleep on her bed with Toto by her side.”可知,她应是“控制住了”恐惧,因而在床上睡着了。got over应和Controlled意义相近。故选B。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段可知当她站在那里欣赏美丽的景色时,一群穿着奇怪的人走了过来。他们戴着圆帽子,帽子在头顶上方一英尺的地方变成了一个小尖。三个男人穿着蓝色的衣服,一个小女人穿着白色的裙子。他们停了下来,低声商量着,好像不敢再往前走。由此可推断,新地方的人穿着很奇怪,而且看到她不敢再往前走,说明多萝西对这群人来说是不寻常的。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一则寓言,主要讲了父亲用一捆树枝告诉儿子们团结就是力量,分裂就容易被击垮的道理。
【31题详解】
句意:当他苦口婆心规劝,却没能化解他们之间的争吵时,他决定用实例,向他们说明不团结的种种弊端。固定搭配fail to do sth表示“未能做某事”,故填不定式to deal。
【32题详解】
句意:当他苦口婆心规劝,却没能化解他们之间的争吵时,他决定用实例,向他们说明不团结的种种弊端。此处指不团结的坏处,所以用advantage的反义词disadvantage;此处表示多方面的弊端,用复数disadvantages。
【33题详解】
句意:有一天,他叫儿子们给他拿来一捆树枝。固定短语a bundle of表示“一捆”。
【34题详解】
句意:随后,他把这捆木棍依次放到每个儿子手中,吩咐他们把这捆木棍折断。固定搭配break…into pieces表示“把……掰成碎片”。
【35题详解】
句意:他们尽了最大努力,但是做不到。but表转折,所以是“不能够”;be unable to do sth表示“不能够做某事”。
【36题详解】
句意:接着他解开这捆木棍,一根根拿出单独的木棍,再次放到儿子们手中。修饰名词sticks要用形容词;separately是副词,形容词形式是separate,意为“单独的、分开的”。
【37题详解】
句意:于是他们很轻易就把树枝折断了。修饰动词broke,要用副词;easy的副词形式是easily。
【38题详解】
句意:孩子们,如果你们同心协力、互帮互助,你们就会像这捆木棍一样坚固。“you are of one mind and unite to help each other”是“you will be as strong as this bundle of sticks”的假设条件,应用if“如果”引导此条件状语从句。
【39题详解】
句意:但如果你们四分五裂,你们就会像这些树枝一样轻易被折断。if引导条件状语从句,遵循“主将从现”;you和break是被动关系,所以用一般将来时的被动语态结构will be broken。
【40题详解】
句意:你们应该明白团结就是力量。此处需要名词作表语,表示“团结就是力量”;strong是形容词,名词形式是strength“力量”。
