A. approaching B. approached C. to approach D. approach 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查with的复合结构。句意：随着考试的临近，复习课堂笔记是个好主意。 exams 与动词approach是主动关系，结合句意的需要，表示考试“正在靠近”，因此使用现在分词作宾语补足语，构成“with+宾语+现在分词”的结构。 故选A项。 12.

Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素) three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if that weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance. After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources. Jason Swencki’s son, Kody, was diagnosed with type diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children's forums(论坛) together most evenings. “Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over,” says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. “They know what he's going through, so he doesn’t feel alone.” Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages. These days, Thomas’s main focus is his charity（慈善机构）, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can’t afford a diabetic’s huge expenses. Fight-it.org has raised about $23,000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean. Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables. “Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure,” says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar’s original members. "But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now." 41. Which of the following is true of Christopher Thomas? A. He needs to go to the doctor every day. B. He studies the leading cause of diabetes C. He has a positive attitude to this disease. D. He encourages diabetics by writing articles. 42. Diabeitcrockstar.com was created for _________. A. diabetics to communicate B. volunteers to find jobs C. children to amuse themselves D. rock stars to share resources. 43. According to the text, Kody ______. A. feel lonely because of his illness B. benefits from diabeticrockstar.com C. helps create the online kid’s forums D. writes children’s stories online 44. What can we learn about Fight It? A. It helps the diabetics in financial difficulties. B. It organizes parties for volunteer once a year. C. It offers less expensive medicine to diabetics. D. It owns a well-known medical website. 45. The last paragraph suggests that Thomas ______. A. works full-time in a diabetes charity B. employs 22 people for his website C. helps diabetics in his own way D. ties to find a cure for diabetes 【答案】41. C 42. A 43. B 44. A 45.

He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.(沮丧了一个月后，托马斯决定最好想办法反击。他离开了密歇根州的坎顿，去了纽约，找到了一份当餐馆的工作，给自己起了个绰号“糖尿病摇滚明星”，并创建了diabticrockstar.com，这是一个为糖尿病患者和他们的亲人提供的免费在线社区，在这里有超过1100人分享个人故事、信息和资源。)”可知，Christopher Thomas对于自己的疾病采取了积极的态度。故选C。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources. (这是一个为糖尿病患者和他们的亲人提供的免费在线社区，在这里有超过1100人分享个人故事、信息和资源。)”可知，diabeitcrockstar.com 是一个供糖尿病患者交流的网站。故选A。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Father and son visit the online children’s forums(论坛) together most evenings. “Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over,” says Swencki, one of the site’s volunteers. “They know what he’s going through, so he doesn’t feel alone.” (大多数晚上，父子俩都会一起访问在线儿童论坛。“科迪非常兴奋，给来自世界各地的孩子们写信，”该网站的一名志愿者斯文基说。“他们知道他正在经历什么，所以他不会感到孤独。”)”可推断，Kody受益于diabeitcrockstar.com这个网站。故选B。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段“These days, Thomas’s main focus is his charity, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can’t afford a diabetic’s huge expenses. Fight-it.org has raised about $23,000—in products and in cash. (这些天，托马斯主要关注的是他的慈善机构“Fight It”，该机构为无法负担糖尿病患者巨额费用的人提供药品和用品，目前已有225人。Fight-it.org已经筹集了大约23,000美元的产品和现金。)”可知，慈善机构Fight it 在经济上帮助其他糖尿病患者。故选A。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables.(尽管有22名志愿者，Thomas经常每周为他的事业奉献50个小时，同时仍在做他的全职服务员工作。)”和“But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now.(但Christopher是我认识的唯一一个说人们现在需要帮助的人。)”可推断，Thomas在用自己的方式帮助糖尿病人。故选C。 C Unlike humans, most insects don’t have brain systems to help them keep a sense of direction. “But they do have a system that allows them to tell what’s bright and what’s dark, and lets them know about the sky so that they can fly smoothly,” Yash Sondhi, a scientist says. If they mess that up, they start falling. Some theories have suggested that insects fly to light because they are blinded by artificial （人工的）light. Sondhi’s team put this question to the test. First, they hung a downward-facing light bulb（电灯泡）and in another test, they turned the light upward. In the first case, insects flew in an endless circle around the bulb. But when the light was pointed up, the insects often stopped flying and fell to the ground. What if the light is spread over a wide area? The researchers spread a large white sheet（床单）across the treetops and shone light on it. Surprisingly, the insects flew straight through the sheet, flying in the way they would during the day. The team then placed the sheet on the ground and shone light on it, and found all the insects flying over it turned upside down and fell to the ground. One of the most important things in flying is identifying the upward direction. Flying insects seem to depend on light to do this, keeping the brighter areas overhead and darker settings below them. “It’s not that insects are just attracted to light. It’s that they are balancing light and dark. But then you get an artificial environment that turns it over,” says Simon Sponberg, a physicist. The use of artificial light has risen quickly over the years, which may keep insects in a tiring circle or send them falling to their death. Along with influencing flying, too much light of this type can affect insects’ ability to find partners, search for food, and protect themselves against other animals. Losing dark sky areas is a serious problem. Unluckily, the situation is worsened by climate change and land loss. What’s comforting is that humans are changing the game through both personal and collective practices. Rebuilding dark sky areas including parks and communities will be beneficial to animals, plants and humans alike. 46. What mainly allows insects to fly safely? A. The ability to judge brightness. B. The cooperation within a group. C. The good control over their wings. D. The skill of seeing well in the dark 47. What can we infer from the light tests on insects? A. Insects can easily lose direction near the ground. B. The direction of light matters to insects’ flying. C. Insects fly much better in wide and bright areas D. The color of light helps insects tell the direction. 48. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “identifying” in Paragraph 4? A. Forgetting. B. Changing. C. Recognizing. D. Sharing. 49. What does the author try to stress by mentioning Simon’s words? A. Light benefits insects’ sense of balance. B. Insects are getting used to artificial light. C. Light pollution puts insects’ living at risk. D. Insects are poor at balancing flying and rest 50. What will the following paragraph probably talk about? A. The need to save wildlife. B. Ways to cut energy waste. C. The dangers of climate change. D. Efforts to protect the night sky. 【答案】46. A 47. B 48. C 49. C 50. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了昆虫如何利用光线进行飞行导航，以及人工光对昆虫飞行和生活的影响。文章通过科学实验和专家的观点来支持其论述，旨在向读者普及关于昆虫飞行导航和光污染对昆虫影响的知识。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“But they do have a system that allows them to tell what’s bright and what’s dark, and lets them know about the sky so that they can fly smoothly,’ Yash Sondhi, a scientist says. (但是，它们确实有一个系统，可以让它们判断什么是亮的，什么是暗的，并让它们了解天空，以便它们可以顺利飞行，”科学家亚什·桑迪说)”可知，昆虫能够安全飞行的主要原因是它们判断亮度的能力。故选A。 【47题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段中的“First, they hung a downward-facing light bulb（电灯泡）and in another test, they turned the light upward. In the first case, insects flew in an endless circle around the bulb. But when the light was pointed up, the insects often stopped flying and fell to the ground.(首先，他们挂了一个朝下的灯泡，在另一个测试中，他们把灯转向上方。在第一种情况下，昆虫在灯泡周围无休止地盘旋。但当灯光亮起时，昆虫经常停止飞行，掉到地上。)”描述可知，昆虫在向下照射的光线中飞行时会绕圈，而在向上照射的光线中或光线照射在地面上时，昆虫会停止飞行或倒挂着摔到地上。这些实验结果表明，光的方向对昆虫的飞行很重要。故选B。 【48题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第四段中的“One of the most important things in flying is identifying the upward direction.(飞行中最重要的事情之一是____向上的方向。)”以及后文“Flying insects seem to depend on light to do this, keeping the brighter areas overhead and darker settings below them.(飞行的昆虫似乎依赖光线来做这件事，保持头顶是亮区，下面是暗区。)”可知，昆虫依赖光线来识别上下方向，因此“identifying”在这里的意思是“识别”。选项C“Recognizing”与此意思相符。故选C。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段中Simon Sponberg的话“‘It’s not that insects are just attracted to light. It’s that they are balancing light and dark. But then you get an artificial environment that turns it over,’(“昆虫并不是仅仅被光线吸引。它们是在平衡光线和黑暗。但然后你得到了一个会颠倒这一切的人工环境。”)”以及后文“The use of artificial light has risen quickly over the years, which may keep insects in a tiring circle or send them falling to their death.Along with influencing flying, too much light of this type can affect insects’ ability to find partners, search for food, and protect themselves against other animals.(这些年来，人工光的使用迅速增加，这可能使昆虫陷入疲惫的循环，或使它们坠落致死。除了影响飞行，这种类型的光线过多也会影响昆虫寻找伴侣、寻找食物和保护自己免受其他动物伤害的能力。)”可知，作者提到Simon的话是为了强调光污染对昆虫的生存构成了威胁。故选C。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Rebuilding dark sky areas including parks and communities will be beneficial to animals, plants and humans alike.(重建包括公园和社区在内的黑暗天空区域将对动物、植物和人类都有益。)”可知，文章接下来很可能会讨论保护夜晚天空的努力。故选D。 第四部分：书面表达 (共两节，满分35分)  第一节  阅读表达 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)  阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Dr. Witt is the medical director for the newborn intensive care unit (重症监护室) at Sutter Santa Rosa Regional Hospital. It was 2 a. m. on October 9th,2017, and Dr. Scott Witt was at home with his family when he received a call from the hospital telling him that they were going to evacuate (疏散) the patients because a deadly wildfire was spreading. Witt sent his wife and four children to safety at a nearby church but decided to head for the hospital since he needed to make sure his patents were safe. “The only way I could get there was to get on my motorcycle,” said Witt because the parts of the roads were impassable to big vehicles.“I had to skirt around (绕开) where the fire had spread to,” he said. “The intensive care unit already smelled with a lot of smoke when I arrived and I wanted to move everybody to a parking lot without any fire in it,” Witt said. With the hospital staff’s help, Witt managed to evacuate all eight preemie babies (早产儿) into an ambulance that rushed them to a nearby hospital. Even though Witt had done more than enough, he decided to follow the ambulance to make sure the babies made it to the hospital. “At one point, there was some live wire on the freeway,” Witt said. After seeing the babies to safety, Witt went back to check on his home, which had been burned to the ground. But Witt is grateful that his family was unharmed. “We didn’t have any injuries; we were just happy to be together.” Now, Witt is being hailed as a hero for his bravery, but he insists he just did what be felt was right. “I feel like these babies are like my own babies,” Witt said.“I just wanted to make sure I was there to help them,” he said. 51. Why were patients evacuated from Sutter Santa Rosa Regional Hospital?(no more than 10 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 52. How did D₁. Witt reach the hospital during the wildfire?(no more than 10 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 53. What happened to Dr. Witt’s home during the wildfire?(no more than 10 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 54. What does the underlined word in the last paragraph mean?(1 word) _____________________________________________________________________ 55. What do you think of Dr. Witt? Please explain.(no more than 20 words) _____________________________________________________________________ 【答案】51. Because a deadly wildfire was spreading in the area. 52. He rode his motorcycle to the hospital / He went to the hospital by motorcycle. 53. It was burned to the ground. 54. Praised. 55. Dr. Witt is brave and responsible. He saved the lives of eight babies. I think he is a hero. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了医生Scott Witt在2017年10月9日凌晨接到医院电话后，面对致命野火的威胁，他决定前往医院确保他的病人安全，并成功地将八名早产儿转移到附近医院的英勇行为。 【51题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段中“It was 2 a. m. on October 9th,2017, and Dr. Scott Witt was at home with his family when he received a call from the hospital telling him that they were going to evacuate (疏散) the patients because a deadly wildfire was spreading.(2017年10月9日凌晨2点，斯科特·威特(Scott Witt)医生和家人在家里，接到医院打来的电话，说他们要疏散病人，因为一场致命的野火正在蔓延。)”可知，要疏散病人是因为一场致命的野火正在该地区蔓延。故答案为Because a deadly wildfire was spreading in the area。 【52题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段中““The only way I could get there was to get on my motorcycle,” said Witt because the parts of the roads were impassable to big vehicles.(威特说：“我能去那里的唯一办法就是骑摩托车。”因为有些路段无法让大型车辆通行。)”可知，威特医生是骑摩托车去的医院。故答案为He rode his motorcycle to the hospital / He went to the hospital by motorcycle。 【53题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第五段中“After seeing the babies to safety, Witt went back to check on his home, which had been burned to the ground.(在把孩子们送到安全地带后，威特回到被烧毁的家中查看情况。)”可知，威特医生的家在野火中被烧成了灰烬。故答案为It was burned to the ground。 【54题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据划线词下文“...as a hero for his bravery(因为他的勇敢而作为英雄……)”可知，威特因为其勇敢而被作为英雄颂扬，划线词意为“称赞，颂扬”，与prasie同义。故答案为Praised。 【55题详解】 开放性问题。根据文章内容可知，医生斯科特·威特在2017年10月9日凌晨接到医院电话后，面对致命野火的威胁，他毅然决定前往医院确保他的病人安全，并成功地将八名早产儿转移到附近医院。由此可知，威特医生勇敢且有责任感觉。他拯救了八个婴儿的生命。我认为他是一个英雄。故答案为Dr. Witt is brave and responsible. He saved the lives of eight babies. I think he is a hero。 第二节  书面表达： (满分25分)  56. 假定你是校英语报记者，上周六你校组织英语俱乐部成员去市博物馆观看了中国绘画艺术展。请你就此活动为校英语报，用英语写一篇新闻报道，内容包括： 1.活动的时间和地点； 2.展览的内容； 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。 A visit to City Museum ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Last Saturday, our school’s English club went to the City Museum.

B Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素) three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if that weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance. After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources. Jason Swencki’s son, Kody, was diagnosed with type diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children's forums(论坛) together most evenings. “Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over,” says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. “They know what he's going through, so he doesn’t feel alone.” Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages. These days, Thomas’s main focus is his charity（慈善机构）, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can’t afford a diabetic’s huge expenses. Fight-it.org has raised about $23,000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean. Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables. “Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure,” says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar’s original members. "But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now." 41. Which of the following is true of Christopher Thomas? A. He needs to go to the doctor every day. B. He studies the leading cause of diabetes C. He has a positive attitude to this disease. D. He encourages diabetics by writing articles. 42. Diabeitcrockstar.com was created for _________. A. diabetics to communicate B. volunteers to find jobs C. children to amuse themselves D. rock stars to share resources. 43. According to the text, Kody ______. A. feel lonely because of his illness B. benefits from diabeticrockstar.com C. helps create the online kid’s forums D. writes children’s stories online 44. What can we learn about Fight It? A. It helps the diabetics in financial difficulties. B. It organizes parties for volunteer once a year. C. It offers less expensive medicine to diabetics. D. It owns a well-known medical website. 45. The last paragraph suggests that Thomas ______. A. works full-time in a diabetes charity B. employs 22 people for his website C. helps diabetics in his own way D. ties to find a cure for diabetes C Unlike humans, most insects don’t have brain systems to help them keep a sense of direction. “But they do have a system that allows them to tell what’s bright and what’s dark, and lets them know about the sky so that they can fly smoothly,” Yash Sondhi, a scientist says. If they mess that up, they start falling. Some theories have suggested that insects fly to light because they are blinded by artificial （人工的）light. Sondhi’s team put this question to the test. First, they hung a downward-facing light bulb（电灯泡）and in another test, they turned the light upward. In the first case, insects flew in an endless circle around the bulb. But when the light was pointed up, the insects often stopped flying and fell to the ground. What if the light is spread over a wide area? The researchers spread a large white sheet（床单）across the treetops and shone light on it. Surprisingly, the insects flew straight through the sheet, flying in the way they would during the day. The team then placed the sheet on the ground and shone light on it, and found all the insects flying over it turned upside down and fell to the ground. One of the most important things in flying is identifying the upward direction. Flying insects seem to depend on light to do this, keeping the brighter areas overhead and darker settings below them. “It’s not that insects are just attracted to light. It’s that they are balancing light and dark. But then you get an artificial environment that turns it over,” says Simon Sponberg, a physicist. The use of artificial light has risen quickly over the years, which may keep insects in a tiring circle or send them falling to their death. Along with influencing flying, too much light of this type can affect insects’ ability to find partners, search for food, and protect themselves against other animals.

It was 2 a. m. on October 9th,2017, and Dr. Scott Witt was at home with his family when he received a call from the hospital telling him that they were going to evacuate (疏散) the patients because a deadly wildfire was spreading. Witt sent his wife and four children to safety at a nearby church but decided to head for the hospital since he needed to make sure his patents were safe. “The only way I could get there was to get on my motorcycle,” said Witt because the parts of the roads were impassable to big vehicles.“I had to skirt around (绕开) where the fire had spread to,” he said. “The intensive care unit already smelled with a lot of smoke when I arrived and I wanted to move everybody to a parking lot without any fire in it,” Witt said. With the hospital staff’s help, Witt managed to evacuate all eight preemie babies (早产儿) into an ambulance that rushed them to a nearby hospital. Even though Witt had done more than enough, he decided to follow the ambulance to make sure the babies made it to the hospital. “At one point, there was some live wire on the freeway,” Witt said. After seeing the babies to safety, Witt went back to check on his home, which had been burned to the ground. But Witt is grateful that his family was unharmed. “We didn’t have any injuries; we were just happy to be together.” Now, Witt is being hailed as a hero for his bravery, but he insists he just did what be felt was right. “I feel like these babies are like my own babies,” Witt said.“I just wanted to make sure I was there to help them,” he said. 51.
