I asked. ("那么，你认为她愿意和我一起骑我的摩托车去兜风吗?"我问。)”和第三段“This ride is the best Christmas present I could ever receive.(这次骑行是我能收到的最好的圣诞礼物。)”可知，这次骑行是作者送给艾米的礼物。故选D。 【26题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“I told her about some of the other things I do (ski, travel the world by myself, etc.). As her father was taking her off my bike, she turned to him and said, "Oh Daddy, I'm going to be OK. Mr. Bryant does all kinds of things, and I will too."(我告诉她我做的其他一些事情(滑雪、独自环游世界等)。当她的父亲把她从我的自行车上抱下来时，她转向他说：“哦，爸爸，我会没事的。科比先生会做各种各样的事情，我也会。”)”可推断，作者的经历鼓舞了Amy。故选C。 【27题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段“Last week I was riding my special motorbike and then stopped at a convenience store.(上周，我骑着我的特制摩托车，停在一家便利店前。)”和Amy从作者的经历中受到鼓舞，Amy是一个残疾人可推测，作者也是一个残疾人。故选B。 【答案】28.D 29.C 30.B 31.C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了日本的科学家们正致力于教机器人Erica对人类讲的某些笑话作出适当的反应。他们认为，这项工作能改善人工智能与人类之间的交流。 【28题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中“She owns a human-like voice and can move her eyes when people are talking to her.(她拥有像人一样的声音，当人们和她说话时，她可以转动她的眼睛。)” 可知，当人们和Erica说话时，她会转动眼睛。故选D项。 【29题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“Scientists hope to be able to make her laugh like we do — with chuckles at little jokes, and big laughs at funnier ones!(科学家们希望能让她像我们一样笑——对小笑话咯咯笑，对更有趣的笑话大笑！)”可知，科学家们期望Erica能够对于某些笑话适当地笑。故选C项。 【30题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线单词句中“Although Erica can't actually ...what you're saying, she can use the information from the data to know what things to laugh at, if you make a joke!(虽然Erica不能真正……你在说什么,但如果你开玩笑的话,她可以利用数据中的信息知道什么东西值得笑!")可知,转折词"Although"暗示前后语义对比——"虽然她不能真正____你说的话,但能通过数据判断该笑什么"。由此可知,划线单词comprehend为"理解"的意思,和B选项understand"理解"意思一致。故选B项。 【31题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中"However, it is not an easy problem at all, and it may well take more than 10 to 20 years before we can finally have a casual chat with a robot like we would with a friend.(然而,这并不是一个简单的问题,很可能需要10到20年的时间,我们才能最终像和朋友一样与机器人随意聊天。)"可推知,在我们能与机器人自由交谈之前还有很长的路要走。故选C项。 【答案】32.A 33.C 34.B 35.D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。介绍了人类前往火星旅行面临的辐射风险问题,以及科学家针对该问题的研究结论,包括旅行时长、出发时机对安全的影响。 【32题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段"Sending human travelers to Mars would require scientists and engineers to overcome a range of technological and safety problems. One of them is the great risk caused by radiation from the sun and distant stars.(将人类送往火星需要科学家和工程师克服一系列技术和安全问题,其中之一就是来自太阳和遥远恒星的辐射带来的巨大风险)"可知,第一段的作用是提出火星旅行的难题之一。故选A。 【33题详解】词句猜测题。根据第一段"One of them is the great risk caused by radiation from the sun and distant stars.(其中之一就是来自太阳和遥远恒星的辐射带来的巨大风险)"、第二段"Answering two key questions would go a long way toward overcoming that difficulty (回答两个关键问题将大大有助于克服这一困难)"及"And, could the very timing (时机) of a trip to Mars help shield astronauts and the spacecraft from the radiation?(此外,火星旅行的时机是否能帮助宇航员和航天器____辐射影响)"可知,辐射是巨大的风险因素,也是需要克服的困难,由此可推知shield意为"保护",与Protect意义相近。故选C。 【34题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段"That is, humans should be able to safely travel to and from Mars, provided that the spacecraft has enough protection and the round trip is shorter than about four years (那就是说,只要航天器有足够的保护,并且往返时间短于四年,人类应该能够安全地往返火星)"可知,考虑到宇航员和航天器的安全,火星往返旅行的时长应少于4年。故选B。 【35题详解】主旨大意题。根据第二段"Answering two key questions would go a long way toward overcoming that difficulty: Would particle (粒子) radiation cause too great a threat to human life throughout a round trip to the red planet? And, could the very timing (时机) of a trip to Mars help shield astronauts and the spacecraft from the radiation?(回答两个关键问题将大大有助于克服这一困难:粒子辐射是否会在往返火星的过程中对人类生命构成严重的威胁?此外,火星旅行的时机是否能帮助宇航员和航天器____辐射影响)"和第三段的"humans should be able to safely travel to and from Mars, provided that the spacecraft has enough protection and the round trip is shorter than about four years (只要航天器有足够的保护,并且往返时间短于四年,人类应该能够安全地往返火星)"以及通读全文可知,本文主要讲的是人类前往火星将会受到太空中的粒子辐射的影响,科学家认为合适的启程时间和合理的旅行周期将能确保宇航员的安全,"人类飞往火星会是安全的吗"最适合作为文章标题。故选D。 【答案】36.D 37.F 38.C 39.E 40.A 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些让旅行更愉快的方法。 【36题详解】根据上文"Travel should be enjoyable.

Here are some ways to make our travel more enjoyable!(要使你的旅行成功,还有很多事情要做。这里有一些方法让我们的旅行更愉快!)"可知,上文提到旅行应该是愉快的,后文则提出了让旅行愉快的方法,可知本句与上文构成转折,指出旅行不愉快的情况。D选项"然而,你的旅行往往是非常有压力的"符合语境,故选D。 【37题详解】根据上文"Book well. The places you book will surely determine the kind of trip you'll end up with. Don't all these amazing hotels look the same? How about looking for a home where you get far more space using that money? Camping trips are also a good way of spending you vacations.(预定好。你预订的地方肯定会决定你的旅行方式。这些漂亮的酒店不是看起来都一样吗?不如用这笔钱找个更宽敞的房子?露营旅行也是度假的旅行方式。 的好方法)”可知，本段关于让旅行愉快的方法是预定好住宿，F选项“所以决定住在哪里是让你的旅行更愉快的一个好方法”符合语境，故选F。 【38题详解】根据上文 “Find fun in your air travel. we know that sometimes air travel can be annoying.

From watching people to enjoying wonderful advertisements, you can gain great pleasure at the airport if you travel with the right state of mind.(你得多留心。从看人到欣赏精彩的广告，如果你带着正确的心态旅行，你可以在机场获得巨大的乐趣)” 可知，上文提到机场是个有趣的地方，本句承接上文说明原因：有很多东西可以探索。C选项“有很多东西可以探索”符合语境，故选C。 【39题详解】根据后文 “You absorb the culture and engage with the locals as well. Most of the time, you wouldn't just walk with the tour guides who make you go through some places that just aren't to your liking. Be your own guide and make simple travel plans that can make your travel more interesting!(你可以吸收当地的文化，也可以和当地人交流。大多数时候，你不会只是跟着导游走，导游会让你去一些你不喜欢的地方。做你自己的导游，制定简单的旅行计划，让你的旅行更有趣！)” 可知，本句主要是在建议一种旅行方式，可以让你吸收当地的文化，也可以和当地人交流，E选项“徒步旅行是探索一个新地方的最好方法之一”符合语境，故选E。 【40题详解】根据后文 “There's little fun in travelling if you don't feel well. If you wish to make your travel more enjoyable, take good care of your health before you mean to travel. See a doctor and get yourself checked if it is necessary. Get all the medicines you'd possibly need.( 如果你不舒服，旅行就没有什么乐趣了。如果你想让你的旅行更愉快，在旅行前请注意自己的健康。如果有必要，去看医生，自己检查一下。带上你可能需要的所有药物)” 可知，后文提到了在旅行中带上药物和去看医生的情况，可见本句是在说明旅行中要保持健康。A选项“保持健康”符合语境，故选A。 完形填空【答案】41.C 42.B 43.A 44.A 45.C 46.B 47.D 48.B 49.A 50.C 51.A 52.B 53.C 54.D 55.D 【导语】文章讲述了在密歇根海滩的一个宁静午后，小女孩意外溺水、呼吸停止，普通母亲Mariza Mojica临危不惧、果断施救，在专业救援到达前为女孩赢得了生机，用行动证明了普通人在生死关头也能带来巨大改变。 【41题详解】考查动词。句意：忽然，一位母亲冲出水面，怀中抱着已经停止呼吸的两岁女儿。A. looked 看见；B. walked 步行；C. rushed 冲；D. dropped 掉落。根据前文 “Out of nowhere” 及后文 “carrying her two-year-old daughter who had stopped breathing” 可知，孩子状况危急，母亲是“冲”出水面的，rushed 最符合语境。 【42题详解】考查形容词。句意：这使周围所有人都感到害怕。A. cheerful 高兴的；B. fearful 害怕的；C. doubtful 怀疑的；D. disappointed 失望的。根据前文 “who had stopped breathing” 可知，孩子停止呼吸是紧急可怕的情形，因此周围的人“感到害怕”。 【43题详解】考查形容词。句意：然而，看到这位无助的母亲，她迅速走上前去帮助这位女士。A. helpless 无助的；B. careless 粗心的；C. homeless 无家可归的；D. selfless 无私的。根据第一段 “a mother ____ out of the water, carrying her two-year-old daughter” 可知，孩子停止呼吸，母亲此刻惊无无助。 【44题详解】考查动词。句意：然而，看到这位无助的母亲，她迅速走上前去帮助这位女士。A. help 帮助；B. recognize 认出；C. protect 保护；D. follow 跟随。根据后文 “Mojica took the child into her arms and immediately ____ CPR (心肺复苏).” Mojica抱过孩子进行急救可知，她是在“帮助”这位母亲，step in to help 指上前帮忙。 【45题详解】考查动词。句意：知道每一秒都至关重要，Mojica把孩子抱进怀里，立刻实施心肺复苏。A. remained 保持；B. waited 等待；C. counted 重要、要紧；D. continued 继续。根据第一段 “child who had stopped breathing” 可知，时间紧迫、分秒必争，every second counted 意为“每一秒都很重要”，count 作不及物动词表示“重要”。 【46题详解】考查动词。句意：知道每一秒都至关重要，Mojica把孩子抱进怀里，立刻实施心肺复苏。A. learned 学习；B. performed 实施、执行；C. received 收到；D. discovered 发现。根据后文 “She first tried mouth-to-mouth rescue breaths, but the child showed no ____.

As I was getting my wheelchair off the back, a man watched me from his car and I noticed a wheelchair in his back seat. We spoke for a moment and I asked him about the wheelchair. He answered that it was for his daughter. “Well, do you think she would like to go for a ride on my motorbike with me?” I asked. He seemed shocked that a total stranger would ask him this. He thought about it for a second and said, “OK, as long as I can follow you.” He introduced me to Amy and he sat her on my back seat. Her father followed me for a few miles and she talked non-stop about what she wanted for Christmas. As we came back to the convenience store, she said, “This ride is the best Christmas present I could ever receive. I have been in a wheelchair my whole life and didn’t know I could do this.” I told her about some of the other things I do (ski, travel the world by myself, etc.). As her father was taking her off my bike, she turned to him and said, “Oh Daddy, I’m going to be OK. Mr. Bryant does all kinds of things, and I will too.” Her father turned away as a tear of joy rolled down his cheek. He hugged me and said, “I was sitting here praying(祈祷) for a gift for Amy that would encourage her. She often felt that her life was dull compared to other children. God answered my prayer just now. Now I pray that God will bless you for your gift to Amy today.” I believed what he said. Being kind and thoughtful to others, we can be an answer to prayer. 24.

D. he was worried about his daughter’s mood. 25. What was the author’s gift to Amy according to passage? A. The motorbike. B. The wheelchair. C. The blessing. D. The ride. 26.

What can we infer from the passage? A. The author usually drove too fast. B. The author was a man with disability. C. The author worked in a convenience store. D. The author often offered strangers a ride on his motorbike. C Scientists in Japan are working on teaching a robot to laugh at jokes! Erica is a robot which looks like a real person. She owns a human-like voice and can move her eyes when people are talking to her. The robot is being programmed to laugh in the right way, at the right time. If she can do this, the talk between the robot and humans will be much more interesting and interactive. Scientists hope to be able to make her laugh like we do — with chuckles at little jokes, and big laughs at funnier ones! The scientists asked 80 people to speak to Erica and counted all the different laughs they did. They now use the data (数据) from this research to train Erica to laugh. Although Erica can't actually comprehend what you're saying, she can use the information from the data to know what things to laugh at, if you make a joke! The research team thinks with this work on Erica, they can improve AI for communication with humans. However, it is not an easy problem at all, and it may well take more than 10 to 20 years before we can finally have a casual chat with a robot like we would with a friend. 28. What do we know about Erica? A. She can speak different languages. B. She has a voice different from that of a real person. C. She often helps people solve their problems. D. She can move her eyes while people talk to her. 29. What do scientists expect Erica to do? A. Tell funnier jokes to listeners. B. Laugh at funny people in time. C. Laugh properly at certain jokes. D. Make jokes while communicating with humans. 30. The underlined word"comprehend" in Paragraph 4 probably means "____". A. organize B. understand C include D. prepare 31. What can we learn from the passage? A. Erica will help make people feel more relaxed. B. more robots like Erica will be produced in the future. C. there's a long way to go before we can talk with robots freely. D. Erica makes no difference to the communication between humans and AI. D Sending human travelers to Mars would require scientists and engineers to overcome a range of technological and safety problems. One of them is the great risk caused by radiation from the sun and distant stars. Answering two key questions would go a long way toward overcoming that difficulty: Would particle (粒子) radiation cause too great a threat to human life throughout a round trip to the red planet? And, could the very timing (时机) of a trip to Mars help shield astronauts and the spacecraft from the radiation? In a new article published in Space Weather, an international team of space scientists, including researchers from the University of California at Los Angeles, answers those two questions with a "no" and a "yes". That is, humans should be able to safely travel to and from Mars, provided that the spacecraft has enough protection and the round trip is shorter than about four years. And the timing of a trip to Mars would indeed make a difference: The scientists determined that the best time for a flight to leave Earth would be when the solar activity is at its top, because during this period, the most dangerous and energetic particles from distant galaxies (星系) are made to change direction by the enhanced solar activity. However, a journey longer than four years would expose astronauts to a dangerously high amount of radiation during the round trip — even if they went when it was relatively safer than at other times according to the researchers. And a trip of that length would be imaginable. The average flight to Mars takes about nine months, so depending on the timing of a launch and available fuel, it seems believable that a human mission could reach the planet and return to Earth in less than two years, according to Yuri Shprits, a co-author of the paper. 32. What's the function of the first paragraph? A. To present one of the difficulties with the trip to Mars. B. To show a possible way to travel to Mars. C. To introduce scientists' effort to travel to Mars. D. To list human's achievements in space. 33. What does the underlined word "shield" in paragraph 2 mean? A. Escape. B. Approach. C. Protect. D. Separate. 34. How long can a round trip to Mars last considering the safety of astronauts and the spacecraft? A. About 9 years. B. Less than 4 years. C. Only 5 years. D. More than 6 years. 35. What can be the best title for the text? A. Humans Will Travel to Mars in Two years. B. Particle Radiation Changes for the Solar Activity. C. The Timing of a Trip to Mars Is Planned. D.
