Teens love to socialize, and these websites give them a chance to do that while playing games. Of course, teens also need to be safe online.
Instagram
Instagram allows teens to upload photos of their daily life and share them with friends. They say that a picture is worth a thousand words, and that must be true because Instagram has around 300 million users who are active each month. The platform is all about photos with short words. When it comes to Instagram’s users, 53 percent of them are aged 18 — 29, but a big percentage of those may be even younger and simply list their age as 18 in order to use the platform.
Habbo Hotel
Habbo Hotel is a place for teens to chat. Each teen receives a personal room to decorate with virtual objects. They can also dress their avatar (网络头像) in virtual clothes or create games to play with friends. The room might have music, be set up like a classroom, or have other features so different avatars can visit one another.
Teen Chat
Teen Chat is a place for teens to communicate with one another through forums (论坛) according to their interests. For example, there are chat rooms for those who love cartoons and for those who’ve just started college. There are also chat rooms for things like music, games, and sports.
Fanlala
Fanlala is a social network that gives teens who love famous people, music and TV shows a place to communicate. Through it, a user can get the latest star-related news on their favourite shows, as well as take quizzes and polls to test their knowledge.
21. What makes Instagram different from other sites listed in the text?
A. Most of its users are in their 20s.
B. It has the largest number of users.

My dad, Greg Newman, had wanted to be a race car driver, but things didn’t work out for him. So I guess having a son who could become a race car driver was the next best thing. Don’t get me wrong—Dad didn’t push me into racing. In fact, when I was about 10 years old, my dad was afraid that driving a car wasn’t my dream. So he took the racing away from me. I wasn’t very happy with that decision. It wasn’t long before Dad realised that racing was what I loved.
At four, Dad bought me my first Quarter Midget (袖珍赛车) and that’s really where it started for us. Back then, Dad was my coach. He would stick out (伸出) his foot in the path of the race car, and then tell me to exactly hit his foot. By doing this again and again, Dad believed that I would be faster and sharper on the race track.
Dad worked really long hours at his car repair business to make money so that I could race each weekend. I can remember that every night before he turned off the lights in the garage (车库), Dad would tell me,” Don’t forget to kiss your race car good night.” He was trying to teach me that if I show respect (尊重), it’s returned. He wanted me to show thankfulness and respect for my race car and for all the hard work that we and many others had put into the dream.
My dad, my mum and my sister gave up a lot of things to help me race. For us, there was no better moment than winning the 50th running of the Daytona 500 in 2018. That evening in February 2018, I knew I had gotten a good push. I could hear the excitement. My father couldn’t speak a word, and when he got to Victory Lane, he nearly knocked me over and gave me such a big hug.
24. What did Greg Newman do when his son was 10 years old?
A. He became a race car driver. B. He started a car repair shop.
C. He bought a Quarter Midget. D. He stopped his son to race.
25. Why did Greg Newman let his son hit his foot?
A. To help his son to be braver. B. To improve his son’s racing skills.
C. To have fun with his son. D. To make his son more careful.
26. What’s the purpose of kissing the race car good night?
A. To show respect and thankfulness.
B. To better prepare for the race.
C. To treat the race car as family member.
D. To develop a closer relationship with the race car.
27. What can we know about the author in the 50th running of the Daytona 500?
A. He fell down in the game. B. He won the race.
C. His father knocked him over. D. His mum gave him a hug.
C
Whether your garden is below a city window or in a big backyard, getting kids involved (参与) in taking care of plants can be a powerful teaching tool for subjects like science, maths, and reading. But the art of growing things can also develop important life skills in children.
Being patient is something many children find difficult, but also helps a kid stay calm in stressful situations. Life is a mixture of immediate and delayed (延误的) satisfaction, so children benefit from learning both. Good things come at the end of a growing season — like yummy fruit or pretty flowers — but kids have to wait for them. For longer-growth plants, kids can create a garden journal to document the progress of their young plants with words, drawings, or photos.
Additionally, working in a garden helps children experience various sounds, smells, and sights. The various sense experiences — the feel and smell of dirt, the sound and sight of water — help them focus on the moment and bring calm to them. At that moment, “they realise they have the power to control their big feelings and thoughts,” says child therapist (治疗师) Jennifer Couture. More importantly, parents should encourage kids to zone out while they’re doing a task again and again such as watering or digging. This can allow their minds to go freely, helping them find a moment of peace.
When kids realise that a garden is full of living things that need their help to survive, they can develop a sense of caring and thoughtfulness. Sometimes, a garden can also grow kindness, responsibility, and other values in kids.
28. How can kids learn to be patient from gardening?
A. By enjoying pretty things. B. By reading a garden journal.
C. By waiting for good things for long. D. By dealing with difficulties.
29. What can calm kids while they are gardening?
A. Various sense experiences. B. Good self-control ability.
C. Beautiful natural environment. D. Friendly family members.
30. What does the phrase “zone out” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Imagine. B. Talk. C. Relax. D. Play.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Process of Kids’ Gardening
B. Ways to Grow Kids’ Learning Skills
C. Kids’ Awareness of Protecting Nature
D. Gardening for Kids: More Than What You Know
D
Humans can race to get out of a hurricane’s path. Some animals can sense a hurricane coming and leave quickly, but there are animals that can’t simply get out of the way. Here are the various effects of hurricanes on animals.
Birds may be able to sense air pressure and other changes in the environment, which encourages them to get out of harm’s way. Some birds will even speed up their migration (迁徙) leaving earlier than usual if a serious hurricane is coming. However, strong winds can push birds hundreds of miles away from their home. Young or weak birds can become separated from the rest of their group and often have difficulty making it home.
Fish can also be influenced. After Hurricane Andrew in 1992, about 184 million fish died in south Louisiana’s Atchafalaya Basin alone. Strong winds blew leaves off trees, blowing them into wetlands. The rotting organic material (腐烂的有机物质) leads to extremely low levels of oxygen (氧气) in the water, killing the fish. Some fish will often find safe areas during hurricanes, but they’re not always safe. Dolphins have sometimes been blown to shore during big hurricanes.
There are many other dangers that come with hurricane-related water. Sharp rise of saltwater onshore can harm wildlife and plants that live in the freshwater and can’t bear the salt content. Heavy rain can also affect the balance of fresh and salt water in some areas, harming the creatures that live in them.
Many animals lose their usual food supply when a hurricane arrives, as strong winds and rains destroy trees of fruits, nuts and berries. During Hurricane Andrew, about one-quarter of Louisiana’s public oyster seed (牡蛎种苗) grounds were destroyed. Because the oysters were an important food for some birds on Louisiana’s barrier Islands, the birds suffered great death as a direct result of the hurricane.
32. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. Birds are used to a changing climate.
B. Birds’ homes are destroyed by hurricanes.
C. Birds can sense the coming of a hurricane.
D. Birds migrate at certain times of every year.
33. What causes fish to die after Hurricane Andrew in 1992?
A. Heavy rain. B. Low oxygen in water.
C. Air pollution. D. The loss of homes.
34. Which word can best describe the hurricane-related water?
A. Harmful. B. Deep. C. Fresh. D. Clean.
35. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Animals in the ocean. B. The importance of fresh water.
C. The living environment of birds. D. Hurricanes’ influence on animals.

第二节(满分25分)
67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
At the age of eighteen, I grew to be a rebellious (叛逆的) person. Usually, my mother asked me to behave in a way that she thought acceptable. However, I often turned a deaf ear to her words.
“This room has become one for pigs!” she angrily said. “Clean it up, or you can’t go out with your friends!” But it looked okay to me. There were only a few clothes and something else on the floor. And it would only take five minutes to pick them up. Why did she have to be always anxious and angry?
Our relationship became worse when Mum began to criticize (批评) me for not listening to her. And I started to think she was too strict and didn’t love me.
A few months before I left for college, one accident made me realize how wrong I was.
“Dear, I don’t want you to drive the car today; it’s going to rain and you might lose control of the car,” she told me early on a spring Saturday morning. My heart sank. I had planned this trip to the shopping centre all week. “She’s naturally anxious again,” I thought.
In my mind, the idea that Mum was unreasonably anxious excused my next action. I secretly walked out of the house and slipped into the car. I slowly drove away from our house. When I lost sight of the house, I drove quickly away from my unreasonably worried Mum. “I’m free!” I thought.
Of course, the chances of having a car accident increase rapidly when you don’t have your mum’s permission (允许) to drive the car in the first place. I didn’t see the dark blue car coming as I turned in front of it in the mall parking lot. Luckily, the dark blue car suffered little damage (损伤) and I only had minor injuries.
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。
Seconds later, the driver of the dark blue car angrily walked towards me.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Instead of checking the damage to the car, Mum carefully examined my body.

【原文】 For 35 years, the rich and famous came to Tony’s shop to get their hair styled. His customers didn’t know Tony’s secret but they noticed he hardly answered the phone. That was because if he did, he might need to write something down. And that was a problem because Tony was unable to read. Tony grew up in a poor area. At school, he was in the worst class. He tried to hide his reading problem as well as he could. At 16, he took a job at a hair shop. He went to school in the evenings to learn how to cut hair and he won prizes for his skill later. Then he was offered a job at a high class shop and there he met his wife Heather. She became one of the few people who knew Tony’s secret. She helped him when reading was required. Aged 25, Tony successfully opened the shop where he would stay for 35 years, but he still had the reading problem. At restaurants, he couldn’t read the menu. Tony’s wife died after 50 years of marriage. Without her help, Tony decided to try again to learn. He joined a group where volunteers taught adults. Tony now reads newspapers like Daily Mirror and Daily Mail, because The Times is too difficult.

Teens love to socialize, and these websites give them a chance to do that while playing games. Of course, teens also need to be safe online.
Instagram
Instagram allows teens to upload photos of their daily life and share them with friends. They say that a picture is worth a thousand words, and that must be true because Instagram has around 300 million users who are active each month. The platform is all about photos with short words. When it comes to Instagram’s users, 53 percent of them are aged 18 — 29, but a big percentage of those may be even younger and simply list their age as 18 in order to use the platform.
Habbo Hotel
Habbo Hotel is a place for teens to chat. Each teen receives a personal room to decorate with virtual objects. They can also dress their avatar (网络头像) in virtual clothes or create games to play with friends. The room might have music, be set up like a classroom, or have other features so different avatars can visit one another.
Teen Chat
Teen Chat is a place for teens to communicate with one another through forums (论坛) according to their interests. For example, there are chat rooms for those who love cartoons and for those who’ve just started college. There are also chat rooms for things like music, games, and sports.
Fanlala
Fanlala is a social network that gives teens who love famous people, music and TV shows a place to communicate. Through it, a user can get the latest star-related news on their favourite shows, as well as take quizzes and polls to test their knowledge.

My dad, Greg Newman, had wanted to be a race car driver, but things didn’t work out for him. So I guess having a son who could become a race car driver was the next best thing. Don’t get me wrong—Dad didn’t push me into racing. In fact, when I was about 10 years old, my dad was afraid that driving a car wasn’t my dream. So he took the racing away from me. I wasn’t very happy with that decision. It wasn’t long before Dad realised that racing was what I loved.
At four, Dad bought me my first Quarter Midget (袖珍赛车) and that’s really where it started for us. Back then, Dad was my coach. He would stick out (伸出) his foot in the path of the race car, and then tell me to exactly hit his foot. By doing this again and again, Dad believed that I would be faster and sharper on the race track.
Dad worked really long hours at his car repair business to make money so that I could race each weekend. I can remember that every night before he turned off the lights in the garage (车库), Dad would tell me,” Don’t forget to kiss your race car good night.” He was trying to teach me that if I show respect (尊重), it’s returned. He wanted me to show thankfulness and respect for my race car and for all the hard work that we and many others had put into the dream.
My dad, my mum and my sister gave up a lot of things to help me race. For us, there was no better moment than winning the 50th running of the Daytona 500 in 2018. That evening in February 2018, I knew I had gotten a good push. I could hear the excitement. My father couldn’t speak a word, and when he got to Victory Lane, he nearly knocked me over and gave me such a big hug.
24. What did Greg Newman do when his son was 10 years old?
A. He became a race car driver. B. He started a car repair shop.
C. He bought a Quarter Midget. D. He stopped his son to race.
25. Why did Greg Newman let his son hit his foot?
A. To help his son to be braver. B. To improve his son’s racing skills.
C. To have fun with his son. D. To make his son more careful.
26. What’s the purpose of kissing the race car good night?
A. To show respect and thankfulness.
B. To better prepare for the race.
C. To treat the race car as family member.
D. To develop a closer relationship with the race car.
27. What can we know about the author in the 50th running of the Daytona 500?
A. He fell down in the game. B. He won the race.
C. His father knocked him over. D. His mum gave him a hug.
【答案】24. D 25. B 26. A 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了父子俩共同努力实现赛车梦的故事。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“In fact, when I was about 10 years old, my dad was afraid that driving a car wasn’t my dream. So he took the racing away from me. I wasn’t very happy with that decision. It wasn’t long before Dad realised that racing was what I loved. (事实上,当我大约10岁的时候,我爸爸担心开车不是我的梦想。所以他把赛车从我身边夺走了。我对那个决定不太满意。没过多久爸爸就意识到我喜欢赛车)”可知,因为爸爸担心儿子不喜欢赛车,所以在他儿子10岁时阻止儿子赛车。故选D项。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Back then, Dad was my coach. He would stick out (伸出) his foot in the path of the race car, and then tell me to exactly hit his foot. By doing this again and again, Dad believed that I would be faster and sharper on the race track. (那时候,爸爸是我的教练。他会在赛车的路径上伸出他的脚,然后告诉我准确地击中他的脚。通过一次又一次地重复这个动作,爸爸认为我在赛道上会更快、更敏捷)”可知,爸爸通过让儿子撞他的脚是为了训练儿子,这样做的目的就是要训练和提高儿子的赛车技术,让儿子在赛道上更快、更敏捷。故选B项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“I can remember that every night before he turned off the lights in the garage (车库), Dad would tell me,” Don’t forget to kiss your race car good night.” He was trying to teach me that if I show respect (尊重), it’s returned. He wanted me to show thankfulness and respect for my race car and for all the hard work that we and many others had put into the dream. (我记得每天晚上在他关掉车库的灯之前,爸爸都会告诉我:“别忘了亲吻你的赛车说晚安。”他想教我,如果我表现出尊重,赛车也会尊重我,给予我回报。他希望我对我的赛车以及我们和其他许多人为实现梦想所付出的努力表示感谢和尊重)”可知,通过亲吻赛车道晚安爸爸是想教给作者要心怀感激,希望作者对赛车和为实现这个梦想所有人付出的所有努力表达感谢与敬意。故选A项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“For us, there was no better moment than winning the 50th running of the Daytona 500 in 2018. That evening in February 2018, I knew I had gotten a good push. I could hear the excitement. My father couldn’t speak a word, and when he got to Victory Lane, he nearly knocked me over and gave me such a big hug. (对我们来说,没有比在2018年赢得2018年第50届Daytona 500比赛更美好的时刻了。2018年2月的那个晚上,我知道我得到了很好的助推。我能听到兴奋的声音。我父亲一句话也说不出来,当他来到Victory Lane时,他差点把我撞倒,给了我一个大大的拥抱。)”可知,作者最后赢得了这次车赛,因此,他的父亲非常兴奋,以至于说不出话来。故选B项。
C
Whether your garden is below a city window or in a big backyard, getting kids involved (参与) in taking care of plants can be a powerful teaching tool for subjects like science, maths, and reading. But the art of growing things can also develop important life skills in children.
Being patient is something many children find difficult, but also helps a kid stay calm in stressful situations. Life is a mixture of immediate and delayed (延误的) satisfaction, so children benefit from learning both. Good things come at the end of a growing season — like yummy fruit or pretty flowers — but kids have to wait for them. For longer-growth plants, kids can create a garden journal to document the progress of their young plants with words, drawings, or photos.
Additionally, working in a garden helps children experience various sounds, smells, and sights. The various sense experiences — the feel and smell of dirt, the sound and sight of water — help them focus on the moment and bring calm to them. At that moment, “they realise they have the power to control their big feelings and thoughts,” says child therapist (治疗师) Jennifer Couture. More importantly, parents should encourage kids to zone out while they’re doing a task again and again such as watering or digging. This can allow their minds to go freely, helping them find a moment of peace.
When kids realise that a garden is full of living things that need their help to survive, they can develop a sense of caring and thoughtfulness. Sometimes, a garden can also grow kindness, responsibility, and other values in kids.
28. How can kids learn to be patient from gardening?
A. By enjoying pretty things. B. By reading a garden journal.
C. By waiting for good things for long. D. By dealing with difficulties.
29. What can calm kids while they are gardening?
A. Various sense experiences. B. Good self-control ability.
C. Beautiful natural environment. D. Friendly family members.
30. What does the phrase “zone out” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Imagine. B. Talk. C. Relax. D. Play.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Process of Kids’ Gardening
B. Ways to Grow Kids’ Learning Skills
C. Kids’ Awareness of Protecting Nature
D. Gardening for Kids: More Than What You Know
【答案】28. C 29. A 30. C 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了让孩子参与园艺活动不仅可以作为学习科学、数学和阅读等科目的有力教学工具,还能培养孩子的重要生活技能。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Good things come at the end of a growing season — like yummy fruit or pretty flowers — but kids have to wait for them. (美好的事物往往在一个生长季节结束时才会到来——比如美味的果实或漂亮的花朵——但孩子们必须耐心等待)”可知,好东西(如美味的水果或漂亮的花朵)是在生长季节结束时得到的,但孩子们必须等待它们。这说明孩子们通过园艺学会耐心的方式是长久地等待好东西的到来。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Additionally, working in a garden helps children experience various sounds, smells, and sights. The various sense experiences — the feel and smell of dirt, the sound and sight of water — help them focus on the moment and bring calm to them. (此外,在花园里劳动能让孩子们体验到各种声音、气味和景象。各种感官体验——泥土的触感和气味,水的声音和景象——帮助他们专注于当下,使他们平静下来)”可知,在花园里工作能让孩子们体验各种声音、气味和景象,这些各种感官体验有助于他们专注于当下,并给他们带来平静。故选A。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“More importantly, parents should encourage kids to zone out while they’re doing a task again and again such as watering or digging. This can allow their minds to go freely, helping them find a moment of peace(更重要的是,父母应该鼓励孩子们在反复做同一项任务(比如浇水或挖土)时zone out。这能让他们的思维自由驰骋,从而找到内心的宁静时刻)”可知,只有放松的状态下才能够让思维自由驰骋,因此推断父母应该鼓励孩子们在反复做浇水或挖土等任务时放松自己,这可以让他们的思想自由放松,帮助他们找到片刻的宁静。由此可推测“zone out”的意思应是“放松”,与Relax意思一致。故选C。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Whether your garden is below a city window or in a big backyard, getting kids involved (参与) in taking care of plants can be a powerful teaching tool for subjects like science, maths, and reading. But the art of growing things can also develop important life skills in children. (无论你的花园是在城市窗户下还是在大后院里,让孩子们参与照料植物都可以成为教授科学、数学和阅读等学科的有力工具。但种植作物的艺术也能培养孩子们重要的生活技能)”、第三段中的“Additionally, working in a garden helps children experience various sounds, smells, and sights. The various sense experiences — the feel and smell of dirt, the sound and sight of water —help them focus on the moment and bring calm to them(此外,在花园里劳动能让孩子们体验到各种声音、气味和景象。各种感官体验——泥土的触感和气味,水的声音和景象——帮助他们专注于当下,使他们平静下来)”以及最后一段“When kids realize that a garden is full of living things that need their help to survive, they can develop a sense of caring and thoughtfulness. Sometimes, a garden can also grow kindness, responsibility, and other values in kids(当孩子们意识到花园里充满了需要他们帮助才能生存的生物时,他们就能培养出关爱和体贴的品质。有时候,一个花园还能在孩子们心中种下善良、责任感以及其他价值观的种子)”可知,本文主要讲述了园艺活动对儿童的多方面益处,包括学习科目、培养生活技能以及性格等。因此D项“园艺对于儿童:比你所知道的更多”能够概括文章主旨,适合作为本文最佳标题。故选D。
D
Humans can race to get out of a hurricane’s path. Some animals can sense a hurricane coming and leave quickly, but there are animals that can’t simply get out of the way. Here are the various effects of hurricanes on animals.
Birds may be able to sense air pressure and other changes in the environment, which encourages them to get out of harm’s way. Some birds will even speed up their migration (迁徙) leaving earlier than usual if a serious hurricane is coming. However, strong winds can push birds hundreds of miles away from their home. Young or weak birds can become separated from the rest of their group and often have difficulty making it home.
Fish can also be influenced. After Hurricane Andrew in 1992, about 184 million fish died in south Louisiana’s Atchafalaya Basin alone. Strong winds blew leaves off trees, blowing them into wetlands. The rotting organic material (腐烂的有机物质) leads to extremely low levels of oxygen (氧气) in the water, killing the fish. Some fish will often find safe areas during hurricanes, but they’re not always safe. Dolphins have sometimes been blown to shore during big hurricanes.
There are many other dangers that come with hurricane-related water. Sharp rise of saltwater onshore can harm wildlife and plants that live in the freshwater and can’t bear the salt content. Heavy rain can also affect the balance of fresh and salt water in some areas, harming the creatures that live in them.
Many animals lose their usual food supply when a hurricane arrives, as strong winds and rains destroy trees of fruits, nuts and berries. During Hurricane Andrew, about one-quarter of Louisiana’s public oyster seed (牡蛎种苗) grounds were destroyed. Because the oysters were an important food for some birds on Louisiana’s barrier Islands, the birds suffered great death as a direct result of the hurricane.
32. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. Birds are used to a changing climate.
B. Birds’ homes are destroyed by hurricanes.
C. Birds can sense the coming of a hurricane.
D. Birds migrate at certain times of every year.
33. What causes fish to die after Hurricane Andrew in 1992?
A. Heavy rain. B. Low oxygen in water.
C. Air pollution. D. The loss of homes.
34. Which word can best describe the hurricane-related water?
A. Harmful. B. Deep. C. Fresh. D. Clean.
35. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Animals in the ocean. B. The importance of fresh water.
C. The living environment of birds. D. Hurricanes’ influence on animals.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了飓风对动物产生的各种影响。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Birds may be able to sense air pressure and other changes in the environment, which encourages them to get out of harm’s way. Some birds will even speed up their migration (迁徙) leaving earlier than usual if a serious hurricane is coming. (鸟类或许能够感知气压以及环境中的其他变化,这会促使它们远离危险。如果强飓风即将来袭,一些鸟类甚至会加快迁徙进程,比往常更早启程。)”可知,鸟类能感知飓风的来临。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“After Hurricane Andrew in 1992, about 184 million fish died in south Louisiana’s Atchafalaya Basin alone. Strong winds blew leaves off trees, blowing them into wetlands. The rotting organic material (腐烂的有机物质) leads to extremely low levels of oxygen (氧气) in the water, killing the fish.(1992年安德鲁飓风过后,仅在路易斯安那州南部的阿查法拉亚盆地就有约1.84亿条鱼死亡。强风把树叶从树上吹落,吹进湿地。腐烂的有机物质导致水中氧气含量极低,导致鱼死亡。)”可知,1992年安德鲁飓风过后,水中氧气含量低导致鱼死亡。故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“There are many other dangers that come with hurricane-related water. Sharp rise of saltwater onshore can harm wildlife and plants that live in the freshwater and can’t bear the salt content. Heavy rain can also affect the balance of fresh and salt water in some areas, harming the creatures that live in them.(与飓风有关的水还带来许多其它危险。陆地上盐水的急剧上升会伤害生活在淡水中的野生动物和植物,它们无法承受盐分。暴雨还会影响一些地区淡水和盐水的平衡,伤害生活在其中的生物。)”可知,与飓风有关的水是有害的。故选A。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段中“Here are the various effects of hurricanes on animals.(以下是飓风对动物的各种影响。)”可知,本文主要介绍了飓风对动物产生的各种影响。故选D。

上文“Whether you are a fashionista or someone who only needs basic clothing, a wardrobe filled with your personal daily uniform is a wise choice.(无论你是时尚达人还是只需要基本服装的人,一个装满你个人日常制服的衣柜都是一个明智的选择)”引出了“个人日常制服”这一话题。下文分别从“节省时间”“节省金钱”“使购物更容易”“创造空间”四个方面介绍了个人日常制服的好处,空处应该是一个承上启下的句子,引出下文对个人日常制服可以简化生活的几个原因的介绍。选项F“让我们来看看为什么个人日常制服可以简化你的生活的一些原因”符合语境。故选F。

本段小标题是“Save money.(节省金钱)”,所以本段内容应该与节省金钱有关。下文“Just like clutter attracts clutter, I also found that clothes attracted more clothes.(就像杂乱吸引杂乱一样,我也发现衣服会吸引更多的衣服)”说明衣服多了会吸引人买更多的衣服,从而浪费金钱。选项E“当我有一个更大、更乱的衣柜时,很容易买越来越多的衣服”符合语境。故选E。

【40题详解】
上文“My personal daily uniform doesn’t include a number of items I wear around seasonally, but it does take up less space.(我的个人日常制服不包括我季节性穿的一些物品,但它确实占用了更少的空间)”说明个人日常制服占用的空间更少。下文“It’s easy to see what I have, there’s space for my clothes to hang and be folded.(我很容易看到我有什么,我的衣服有地方挂和叠)”进一步说明个人日常制服让衣柜更整洁。选项D“这意味着我可以把所有东西都保持整洁有序”符合语境。故选D。

65. to experience
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道,文章主要报道了由于中国免签政策的实施以及周末度假的吸引力,越来越多的韩国青年趁着周末来到中国旅行。
【56题详解】
考查冠词。句意:得益于中国新推出的免签政策以及周末度假的吸引力,越来越多的韩国年轻人选择到中国度周末。a number of意为“许多……,大量的……”,an increasing number of意为“越来越多的……”。故填an。
【57题详解】
考查形容词。句意:那么,是什么让上海对韩国年轻人如此有吸引力呢?这里是“make+宾语+宾语补足语”的结构,此处需要用形容词作宾语补足语,attractive意为“吸引人的”。故填attractive。
【58题详解】
考查副词。句意:从首尔到上海的航班通常只需两个小时,往返票价通常不到2000元人民币,这使得该城市成为周末短途度假的理想目的地。这里需要用副词修饰动词take。normally意为“通常”。故填normally。
【59题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意参考上题。and连接的并列句已有谓语动词take和are,且空处和前面部分没有连词连接,所以空处用非谓语动词。旅行时间短和票价便宜使得该城市成为周末短途度假的理想目的地,这里表示自然而然的结果,用现在分词形式作结果状语。故填making。
【60题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:虹泉路,又称韩国街,自2013年以来一直备受青睐,部分原因在于《继承者们》和《来自星星的你》等热门韩国电视剧的影响。(be) known as意为“被称作……”,know与其逻辑主语Hongquan Road之间是被动关系,用过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰Hongquan Road。故填known。
【61题详解】
考查名词复数。句意参考上题。TV show意为“电视剧”,根据空后的列举“like Heirs and My Love from The Star”可知这里应填复数形式。故填shows。
【62题详解】
考查介词。句意:该区域遍布烧烤餐厅和商店,提供各种韩国产品。be packed with 意为“挤满……,有大量的……”,为固定搭配。故填with。
【63题详解】
考查定语从句。句意参考上题。空处引导非限制性定语从句,指代先行词BBQ restaurants and shops,且在从句中作主语,应用which。故填which。
【64题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:近年来,韩国年轻人对中国菜肴的兴趣日益浓厚,这推动了韩国旅游业的发展。根据“Over the past years”可知,这里应使用现在完成时,表示过去发生的事情对现在的影响,且主语为interest,助动词用has。故填has shaped。
【65题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:诸如“重庆火锅之旅”和“大连饺子之旅”等美食旅游套餐如今备受青睐,满足了韩国美食爱好者体验中国丰富烹饪传统的愿望。want to do sth.意为“想要做某事”,不定式作宾语。故填to experience。

After reading your message at the “Soul Station”, where you expressed your confusion about high school, I’d like to share with you the importance of setting learning goals.

第二节(满分25分)
67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
At the age of eighteen, I grew to be a rebellious (叛逆的) person. Usually, my mother asked me to behave in a way that she thought acceptable. However, I often turned a deaf ear to her words.
“This room has become one for pigs!” she angrily said. “Clean it up, or you can’t go out with your friends!” But it looked okay to me. There were only a few clothes and something else on the floor. And it would only take five minutes to pick them up. Why did she have to be always anxious and angry?
Our relationship became worse when Mum began to criticize (批评) me for not listening to her. And I started to think she was too strict and didn’t love me.
A few months before I left for college, one accident made me realize how wrong I was.
“Dear, I don’t want you to drive the car today; it’s going to rain and you might lose control of the car,” she told me early on a spring Saturday morning. My heart sank. I had planned this trip to the shopping centre all week. “She’s naturally anxious again,” I thought.
In my mind, the idea that Mum was unreasonably anxious excused my next action. I secretly walked out of the house and slipped into the car. I slowly drove away from our house. When I lost sight of the house, I drove quickly away from my unreasonably worried Mum. “I’m free!” I thought.
Of course, the chances of having a car accident increase rapidly when you don’t have your mum’s permission (允许) to drive the car in the first place. I didn’t see the dark blue car coming as I turned in front of it in the mall parking lot. Luckily, the dark blue car suffered little damage (损伤) and I only had minor injuries.
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。
Seconds later, the driver of the dark blue car angrily walked towards me.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Instead of checking the damage to the car, Mum carefully examined my body.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Seconds later, the driver of the dark blue car angrily walked towards me. I got out of the car and stood in front of it, frightened and regretful. My heart raced, and guilt overwhelmed me as I realised the consequences of my decision. At that moment, I wished I had listened to my mum’s advice. “You should have been more careful while driving! You’re lucky no one got hurt. But my car is in bad shape...” the driver shouted. As I stood there, facing the consequences of my choice, my mum arrived.
Instead of checking the damage to the car, Mum carefully examined my body. It was at that moment that I understood the depth of a mother’s love. Our eyes met, and in hers, I saw a mix of worry, relief and unconditional love. “I’m very sorry. We take full responsibility for this accident. We can get your car fixed,” my mum apologized sincerely. The accident marked a turning point in our relationship. From that day on, I began to appreciate my mother’s guidance and care in a new light.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者十八岁时十分叛逆,对母亲的管教充耳不闻,认为母亲过于严厉、不理解自己。在上大学前的一个周六,作者不顾母亲担心雨天危险的劝阻,偷偷开车外出,结果在停车场发生了车祸。所幸事故并不严重。
【详解】1.段落续写
①由第一段句首内容“几秒后,深蓝色轿车的司机怒气冲冲地朝我走来。”可知,第一段可以描写作者下车后害怕又后悔的心情,意识到自己不听劝告的后果,内心充满愧疚。
②由第二段句首内容“妈妈没有先查看车辆的损坏,而是仔细地检查我的身体。”可知,第二段可以描写母亲赶到后充满担忧与关爱,主动承担责任,让作者深受触动,从此改变对母亲的态度,懂得感恩与珍惜。
2.续写线索:司机走来——司机的指责——害怕后悔——母亲赶来——理解母爱—— 关系转变懂得感恩
3.词汇激活
