B Wendi Aarons was writing at her local library when the sound of an angry voice made everyone look up. A customer, angry about a book policy, promised to take her child to another library and stormed off (气冲冲地离开) after yelling at the staff. The entire room was “so upset,” said Ms. Aarons, a humorist. “It was just this awful, uncomfortable silence.” But Ms. Aarons, an expert at balancing humor and discomfort, saw an opening. She stood up and said, “Hey, does anybody have the number for this other library? Because I want to call and give them a heads-up. (预先通知，预先劝告)” Laughter erupted; the mood lifted. Things returned to normal. This is the power of “lightening up.” Humor and levity (轻松愉悦) are related. There are more studies on humor — and other phenomena like laughter, playfulness, amusement and cheerfulness, Willibald Ruch, a positive psychology researcher, said. The core element that exists in these two overlapping (重叠的) experiences is a sense of lightness, as well as an attitude of not taking everything so seriously. Though claiming “laughter is the best medicine” might be a bridge too far (言过其实), a good laugh has possible effects. There are studies associating laughter with positive changes in heart rate, blood pressure and muscle (肌肉) tension. And there are studies that connect laughter, humor and feeling amused to increases in optimism, feeling in control and life satisfaction, as well as reductions in stress and anxiety. The idea of “working on levity” may feel a little forced. But, like building any other habit, practice helps — and there’s proof that purposely creating amusing experiences has the same benefits as spontaneous (自发的) amusement. So Dr. Ruch and his team had participants take an eight-week humor training course in which they completed the following tasks: They watched more funny TV shows, laughed louder or longer than they normally would, identified puns (双关) in media and conversations, and made jokes. Humor trainees reported increases in cheerfulness and reduced seriousness as a result. 41. How does the author lead into the topic? A. By telling a story of Ms. Aarons. B. By mentioning a study led by Dr. Ruch. C. By describing his own experience. D. By raising a question about humor. 42. What was the immediate effect of Wendi Aarons’ words? A. The tension was relieved. B. The angry customer returned. C. The library staff felt surprised. D. The silence became comfortable. 43. What can we learn about levity according to paragraph 3? A. It ignores serious topics. B. It involves laughing sincerely. C. It needs professional training. D. It requires a sense of non-seriousness. 44. What does the author think of “laughter is the best medicine”? A. Exaggerated. (夸张的) B. Popular. C. Unproven. D. Significant. 45. Why did Dr. Ruch have participants take a humor training course? A. To reduce their stress levels. B. To improve their sense of humor. C. To explain why people need humor. D. To test how practiced humor benefits. 第Ⅱ卷 (非选择题) Ⅴ. 阅读表达 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) I grew up in a small, remote village in the eastern part of Zimbabwe. My world was very small and I only knew a few professions and as I started my first grade in primary school, the only profession that I knew was teaching. Therefore, at that time, being a teacher was my ambition. A few years later, a young man from my village became a medical doctor. I admired his lifestyle. I was therefore inspired by his achievements and he became my role model. This is the reason why when I started high school, all I wanted to do was be a medical doctor. I hoped to take mostly science subjects in high school and then proceed to university to study medicine. However, things didn’t go the way I expected. I could not take science subjects because they were not offered at my high school. At first I was very disappointed and depressed. I thought that my dreams had been shattered once again, but a little while later, I realized that this was a blessing: I had been given a chance to explore my options a little further than that. As I completed high school and was preparing to go to college, my greatest attention was focused on accounting. Naturally, the subject becomes my best subject now at college. Now I am an accounting major but I wish to declare finance a major as well. I value the importance of business in society very much. I want to be a financial advisor in the future. To make my dream come true, now I am studying hard to gain more knowledge about finance. While I wish to achieve this, I agree that there is room for me to explore other opportunities, too. Our ambitions always change with new circumstances, new environments and as we get to know how big the world really is. 46. What did the author want to be when he started his first grade in primary school? (no more than 6 words) ___________________________________________________ 47.

(1 word) ___________________________________________________ 49. What is the author doing to achieve his dream of being a financial advisor? (no more than 10 words) ___________________________________________________ 50. What’s your dream as a teenager? And why do you have the dream?

The project is much better than the one ________ carried out by the team. A. rarely B. essentially C. previously D. gently 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：这个项目比该团队之前实施的那个项目要好得多。A.rarely很少；B.essentially本质上；C.previously先前、之前；D.gently轻轻地。根据句中比较关系“比…… 更好”可知，是和之前做过的项目对比，previously表示先前，契合语境。 13. ________ children to respect others is believed to be the responsibility of parents.

Having assigned 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：被分配了这项重要任务后，她提前为此做好了充分的准备。设空处在句中作状语，其逻辑主语为主句主语she。动词assign与逻辑主语she之间是被动关系，因此应用过去分词形式作状语。 15. （2016﹒天津卷）You are waiting at a wrong place. It is at the hotel __________ the coach picks up tourists. A. who B. which C. where D. that 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查强调句。句意：你在一个错误的地方等待。大客车是在旅店接送游客的。使用强调句，结构是：It is/was+强调部分+that+其余部分，如果强调部分是人，也可以用who，这句话强调的是地点状语at the hotel。故选D。 16. ________ chairman of the student union, he tried his best to serve all the students. A. Electing B. Elected C. To elect D. Having elected 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：被选为学生会主席后，他尽最大努力为所有学生服务。设空处为非谓语动词作状语，动词“elect”与逻辑主语“he”之间构成被动关系，且动作已经完成，因此应用过去分词形式作状语。 17. After years of struggle and repeated failures, he ________ achieved his long-held dream. A. eventually B. eagerly C. consistently D. merely 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：经过多年的奋斗和反复的失败，他最终实现了他长久以来的梦想。A. eventually最终；B. eagerly渴望地；C. consistently一贯地；D. merely仅仅。根据“After years of struggle and repeated failures”可知，经过多年的努力和失败，他最终实现了梦想。 18. The reporter ________ a remark on the event has won wide praise. A. making B. made C. to make D. have made 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：对该事件发表评论的那位记者赢得了广泛的赞誉。句子的谓语动词是“has won”，空格处应填入非谓语动词作后置定语修饰主语“The reporter”，动词make与逻辑主语“The reporter”之间是主动关系，故应用现在分词形式making。 19. The manager offered many practical plans, most of ________ were rejected by the board. A. them B. whom C. which D. who 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：经理提供了许多实用的计划，其中大部分被董事会拒绝了。空处为“介词+关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句，先行词为many practical plans，指物，应用关系代词which。 20. ________ online courses are convenient, they cannot replace face-to-face communication between teachers and students. A. While B. When C. As D. Since 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：虽然线上课程很方便，但是它们无法取代师生之间面对面的交流。A. While虽然；B. When当……时；C. As因为；D. Since自从。前后两个分句之间存在让步转折关系，空格处需要填入一个表示“虽然，尽管”的从属连词，while置于句首时，可引导让步状语从句，意为“虽然，尽管”，符合语境。 Ⅲ. 完型填空 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) When I was a child, my family lived in a small house near the woods.

A customer, angry about a book policy, promised to take her child to another library and stormed off (气冲冲地离开) after yelling at the staff. The entire room was “so upset,” said Ms. Aarons, a humorist. “It was just this awful, uncomfortable silence.” But Ms. Aarons, an expert at balancing humor and discomfort, saw an opening. She stood up and said, “Hey, does anybody have the number for this other library? Because I want to call and give them a heads-up. (预先通知，预先劝告)” Laughter erupted; the mood lifted. Things returned to normal. This is the power of “lightening up.” Humor and levity (轻松愉悦) are related. There are more studies on humor — and other phenomena like laughter, playfulness, amusement and cheerfulness, Willibald Ruch, a positive psychology researcher, said. The core element that exists in these two overlapping (重叠的) experiences is a sense of lightness, as well as an attitude of not taking everything so seriously. Though claiming “laughter is the best medicine” might be a bridge too far (言过其实), a good laugh has possible effects. There are studies associating laughter with positive changes in heart rate, blood pressure and muscle (肌肉) tension. And there are studies that connect laughter, humor and feeling amused to increases in optimism, feeling in control and life satisfaction, as well as reductions in stress and anxiety. The idea of “working on levity” may feel a little forced. But, like building any other habit, practice helps — and there’s proof that purposely creating amusing experiences has the same benefits as spontaneous (自发的) amusement. So Dr. Ruch and his team had participants take an eight-week humor training course in which they completed the following tasks: They watched more funny TV shows, laughed louder or longer than they normally would, identified puns (双关) in media and conversations, and made jokes. Humor trainees reported increases in cheerfulness and reduced seriousness as a result. 41. How does the author lead into the topic? A. By telling a story of Ms. Aarons. B. By mentioning a study led by Dr. Ruch. C. By describing his own experience. D. By raising a question about humor. 42. What was the immediate effect of Wendi Aarons’ words? A. The tension was relieved. B. The angry customer returned. C. The library staff felt surprised. D. The silence became comfortable. 43. What can we learn about levity according to paragraph 3? A. It ignores serious topics. B. It involves laughing sincerely. C. It needs professional training. D. It requires a sense of non-seriousness. 44. What does the author think of “laughter is the best medicine”? A. Exaggerated. (夸张的) B. Popular. C. Unproven. D. Significant. 45. Why did Dr. Ruch have participants take a humor training course? A. To reduce their stress levels. B. To improve their sense of humor. C. To explain why people need humor. D. To test how practiced humor benefits. 【答案】41. A 42. A 43. D 44. A 45. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了温迪在图书馆用玩笑缓解尴尬，引出幽默与轻松的力量；相关研究表明其能改善身心状态，刻意练习幽默也可收获同等积极效果。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Wendi Aarons was writing at her local library when the sound of an angry voice made everyone look up. A customer, angry about a book policy, promised to take her child to another library and stormed off (气冲冲地离开) after yelling at the staff. The entire room was “so upset,” said Ms. Aarons, a humorist. “It was just this awful, uncomfortable silence.”(温迪·阿伦斯正在当地图书馆写作，突然一阵怒气冲冲的声音引得所有人抬头望去。一位顾客因不满图书馆的图书借阅规定，怒斥了工作人员一通，随后扬言要带孩子去别家图书馆，便气冲冲地离开了。身为幽默作家的阿伦斯女士说，当时整个图书馆里的人都“十分不安”，“现场陷入了一种糟糕又尴尬的死寂”)”及第二段中“But Ms. Aarons, an expert at balancing humor and discomfort, saw an opening.(但身为善于用幽默化解尴尬的行家，阿伦斯女士察觉到了一个打破僵局的机会)”可知，作者通过讲述阿伦斯女士的故事来引入这个话题。故选A。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Laughter erupted; the mood lifted. Things returned to normal. This is the power of “lightening up.”(一阵欢笑传来，气氛也随之好转。一切又恢复了正常。这就是“放轻松”所带来的力量)”可知，温迪·阿伦斯的话缓解了紧张气氛。故选A。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The core element that exists in these two overlapping (重叠的) experiences is a sense of lightness, as well as an attitude of not taking everything so seriously.(在这两种相互交织的经历中，核心要素就是一种轻松的感觉，以及一种不把一切事情都看得太严肃的态度)”可知，轻松愉悦需要一种不严肃的态度。故选D。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Though claiming “laughter is the best medicine” might be a bridge too far (言过其实), a good laugh has possible effects.(虽然说“笑是最佳良药”这种说法可能有些夸张，但适度的欢笑确实能产生一定的效果)”可知，作者认为“笑是最佳良药”这一说法夸张了。故选A。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The idea of “working on levity” may feel a little forced. But, like building any other habit, practice helps — and there’s proof that purposely creating amusing experiences has the same benefits as spontaneous (自发的) amusement.(“以轻松愉快的方式做事”这一理念或许会让人觉得有些牵强。但就像养成任何其他习惯一样，不断练习会有所帮助——而且有证据表明，有意识地创造有趣的经历与自发的娱乐活动具有相同的益处)”可知，鲁奇博士让参与者参加幽默训练课程是为了验证经过练习的幽默能够带来怎样的益处。故选D。 第Ⅱ卷 (非选择题) Ⅴ. 阅读表达 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) I grew up in a small, remote village in the eastern part of Zimbabwe. My world was very small and I only knew a few professions and as I started my first grade in primary school, the only profession that I knew was teaching. Therefore, at that time, being a teacher was my ambition. A few years later, a young man from my village became a medical doctor. I admired his lifestyle. I was therefore inspired by his achievements and he became my role model. This is the reason why when I started high school, all I wanted to do was be a medical doctor. I hoped to take mostly science subjects in high school and then proceed to university to study medicine. However, things didn’t go the way I expected. I could not take science subjects because they were not offered at my high school. At first I was very disappointed and depressed. I thought that my dreams had been shattered once again, but a little while later, I realized that this was a blessing: I had been given a chance to explore my options a little further than that. As I completed high school and was preparing to go to college, my greatest attention was focused on accounting. Naturally, the subject becomes my best subject now at college. Now I am an accounting major but I wish to declare finance a major as well. I value the importance of business in society very much. I want to be a financial advisor in the future. To make my dream come true, now I am studying hard to gain more knowledge about finance. While I wish to achieve this, I agree that there is room for me to explore other opportunities, too. Our ambitions always change with new circumstances, new environments and as we get to know how big the world really is. 46. What did the author want to be when he started his first grade in primary school? (no more than 6 words) ___________________________________________________ 47. Why did the author want to be a medical doctor later? (no more than 13 words) ___________________________________________________ 48. What does the underlined word “shattered” in Paragraph 3 mean? (1 word) ___________________________________________________ 49. What is the author doing to achieve his dream of being a financial advisor? (no more than 10 words) ___________________________________________________ 50. What’s your dream as a teenager? And why do you have the dream? (no more than 20 words) ___________________________________________________ 【答案】46. He wanted to be a teacher. 47. Because he was inspired by a young man from his village. 48. Broken./Ended./Destroyed. 49. He is studying hard to gain more knowledge about finance. 50. (open) I want to be a teacher, because I think teachers are kind, patient, and wise. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者从小到大梦想的转变过程，从最初的想成为老师，到后来受村里一个年轻医生的影响想成为医生，再到因高中不提供理科课程而探索其他选择，最终确定想成为财务顾问的梦想，并为此努力学习。 【46题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段中“My world was very small and I only knew a few professions and as I started my first grade in primary school, the only profession that I knew was teaching. Therefore, at that time, being a teacher was my ambition.(我的世界很小，我只知道几个职业，当我开始上小学一年级的时候，我唯一知道的职业就是教书。因此，在那个时候，成为一名教师是我的理想)”可知，作者上小学一年级时想成为一名老师。故答案为He wanted to be a teacher. 【47题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段中“A few years later, a young man from my village became a medical doctor. I admired his lifestyle. I was therefore inspired by his achievements and he became my role model. This is the reason why when I started high school, all I wanted to do was be a medical doctor. (几年后，我们村里的一个年轻人成为了一名医生。我欣赏他的生活方式。因此，他的成就激励了我，他成为了我的榜样。这就是为什么当我开始上高中的时候，我想做的就是成为一名医生)”可知，作者后来想成为一名医生是因为他受到村里一个年轻人的启发。故答案为Because he was inspired by a young man from his village. 【48题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据第三段中“I could not take science subjects because they were not offered at my high school. At first I was very disappointed and depressed. I thought that my dreams had been shattered once again, but a little while later, I realized that this was a blessing: I had been given a chance to explore my options a little further than that. (由于我的高中没有开设理科课程，我无法选修理科。起初我感到非常失望和沮丧，以为自己的梦想再次shattered。但没过多久，我意识到这其实是因祸得福——这让我有机会更深入地探索自己的人生选择)”可知，作者的高中不提供理科课程，不能选理科，所以成为医生的梦想破灭了，故划线词shattered意为“破灭”，与broken/ended/destroyed等词意思相近。故答案为Broken./Ended./Destroyed. 【49题详解】 考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中“To make my dream come true, now I am studying hard to gain more knowledge about finance. (为了实现我的梦想，现在我正在努力学习以获得更多关于金融的知识)”可知，作者为了实现成为财务顾问的梦想，正在努力学习以获得更多关于金融的知识。故答案为：He is studying hard to gain more knowledge about finance. 【50题详解】 考查开放题。本题为开放性题目，言之有理即可，答案不唯一。题干为“你青少年时期的梦想是什么？你为什么有这个梦想？”可以回答：我想成为一名教师，因为我觉得教师善良、耐心、睿智。故答案为I want to be a teacher, because I think teachers are kind, patient, and wise. Ⅵ. 书面表达 （共1小题，满分20分） 51. 根据话题（If at first you don’t succeed, try, try on and on. 如果一开始没有成功，那就不断尝试，坚持下去。），写一篇120字左右的作文，要求如下： 1. 解释观点； 2. 说明理由给出例证； 3. 自己的感悟。 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: If at First You Don’t Succeed, Try Again The saying means that failure is not the end, but a signal to keep trying. Success often comes after repeated efforts. The reason is simple: each attempt teaches us something new. Edison failed thousands of times before inventing the light bulb, yet he never gave up. Similarly, many students improve their English only after correcting mistakes again and again. From this, I have learned that persistence matters more than talent. When I face difficulties, I should not quit easily. Instead, I will treat failure as a step toward success and keep moving forward. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达要求考生围绕谚语If at first you don’t succeed, try, try on and on写短文，阐释含义、举例论证并表达个人感悟。 【详解】1. 词汇积累 面对：face → confront 提高：improve → enhance 坚持：persistence → perseverance 重要：matter → count 2. 句式拓展 同义句转换 原句：The saying means that failure is not the end, but a signal to keep trying. 拓展句：What the saying tells us is that failure is not the end, but a signal to keep trying. 【点睛】【高分句型 1】The saying means that failure is not the end, but a signal to keep trying.（运用了that引导的宾语从句以及“not…but…”连接并列结构） 【高分句型 2】When I face difficulties, I should not quit easily.（运用了when引导时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
