Metropolitan Museum of Art The vast collection of antique artworks contained within this museum founded in 1870 is one of the world’s largest and most important,with more than two million objects from around the globe. The 1st-floor ancient Egyptian collection is above comparison,so do not miss the Temple of Dendur built around 10 BC and moved straight from the banks of the Nile in 1978.

B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇应用文。主要介绍了四个著名博物馆的修建时间、各自的藏品以及给参观者提供音频服务等内容。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Guggenheim Museum中的信息“The museum has since opened other notable branches in Bilbao, Venice and, in the future, Abu Dhabi.（该博物馆在Bilbao、Venice开设了著名的分馆，此后，还将在Abu Dhabi.开设分馆。）”可知， Guggenheim Museum准备在Abu Dhabi开分馆。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据该馆提到的“The 1st-floor ancient Egyptian collection is above comparison, so do not miss the Temple of Dendur built around 10 BC and moved straight from the banks of the Nile in 1978.（第一层的古埃及藏品是无与伦比的，所以不要错过建于公元前10年左右，1978年从尼罗河岸边直接搬来的丹杜尔神庙。）”信息可知，一楼的古埃及藏品无与伦比，该馆中的the Temple of Dendur是1978年从尼罗河直接搬移到这里的，所以该馆有庙宇作为收藏品，这是它的特殊之处。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Audio(音频)guides are free,available on a device from the museum in several languages.（音频指南是免费的，可以在博物馆的设备上用多种语言下载。）”；第四段“Pick up the free audio-guide or download the Guggenheim app for more information.（拿起免费的音频指南或下载Guggenheim 应用程序了解更多信息。）”；第六段“Audio-guides are free.（音频指南都是免费的。）”；最后一段“Self-guided audio tours(adult/child$7/5)are available in 10 languages.（自助音频旅游(成人/儿童$7/5)有10种语言。）”可知四个博物馆均提到audio guides，即音频服务（有的博物馆要收费，有的是免费的），所以这四个博物馆的共同之处是都为游客提供了音频服务。故选B。 B The bell rang. Jada sighed, slowly moved from the lockers where she had been leaning, and headed down the hall to her chemistry class. Honors Chemistry! Jada couldn’t believe that her mom was making her take the class because Jada’s counselor had said that she had real talent in science. Jada had to admit that she liked science and that last year’s class was a breeze, but come on Honors Chemistry? She wouldn’t know anyone in the class, and they probably wouldn’t know anyone like her. The good thing about being late is that it shortened the period a bit. The bad thing is that it made her seem like she was making a grand entrance. To make matters worse, the only two seats left in class were at the lab table at the very front of the room. Jada held her breath and walked in. Everyone’s eyes were on her. She just knew it. They were staring at her coal black hair (freshly dyed) , her black lipstick, her black fingernail polish, and her thrift-store black leather jacket. All she saw were polo shirts and khaki pants. This can’t get any worse, Jada thought. But at least she didn’t get shouted at by the teacher. He was too busy talking to a new kid. A HUGE new kid, maybe 6'4". He had to weigh at least 250 pounds. A football player, probably. She hated football players. They thought they were so great. That group of jocks that hung out by the cafeteria always made fun of her. The new kid made his way over to her table with his head down. He had to squeeze into the seat, and his legs wouldn’t fit under the lab table. He shot Jada a glance and turned red. Mr. Martin, the teacher, began class with this announcement: Okay, everyone. I know most of you know each other from last year’s Honors Physical Science class. Jada sighed loudly. “But just take a minute and introduce yourself to the person sitting at your table. You’ll be partners. You’ll be working closely together all year.” Jada rolled her eyes and stared straight ahead. Then she heard a surprisingly soft voice from next to her. “Hi. I’m Robert. I’m new here.” 4. What can be learned about Jada from the first two paragraphs? A. She thought this year’s chemistry class would be a breeze. B. She wasn’t willing to take the Honors Chemistry class. C. She was angry that her mother made her go to school D. She found she didn’t like science as she thought. 5. The writer described Jada’s appearance in paragraph 4 in order to ______. A. reveal how different she was from her classmates B. explain why she was late for school that morning. C. give readers a general impression of science students. D. imply that she felt sorry for making a grand entrance 6. In paragraph 5, the phrase “that group of jocks” refers to ______. A. the new kid B. Jada’s classmates C. Jada’s teacher D. football players 7. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true of the new kid? A. He was rude. B. He liked sports. C. He was shy. D. He looked sad. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文为记叙文。文章主要讲述了Jada第一次上荣誉化学课迟到的经历。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“The bell rang. Jada sighed, slowly moved from the lockers where she had been leaning, and headed down the hall to her chemistry class. Honors Chemistry! Jada couldn’t believe that her mom was making her take the class because Jada’s counselor had said that she had real talent in science. (铃响了。Jada叹了口气，慢慢地从她一直靠着的储物柜旁走出来，沿着大厅去上化学课。荣誉化学！Jada不敢相信她妈妈让她上课，因为Jada的辅导员说她有真正的科学天赋)”和第二段“Jada had to admit that she liked science and that last year’s class was a breeze, but come on Honors Chemistry? She wouldn’t know anyone in the class, and they probably wouldn’t know anyone like her. (Jada不得不承认她喜欢科学，去年的课程轻而易举，但是，荣誉化学？她不会认识班上的任何人，他们可能也不会认识像她这样的人)”可知，Jada确实喜欢化学课，但她不想去上荣誉化学课，因为她不认识班上的同学。故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段第二三句“The bad thing is that it made her seem like she was making a grand entrance. (糟糕的是，这让她看起来像是在做一个宏大的入场。更糟糕的是，课堂上只剩下两个座位在房间前面的实验室桌子上)”和第四段“Jada held her breath and walked in. Everyones eyes were on her. She just knew it. They were staring at her coal black hair (freshly dyed) , her black lipstick, her black fingernail polish, and her thrift-store black leather jacket. All she saw were polo shirts and khaki pants. (Jada屏住呼吸，走了进来。每个人都盯着她。她只是知道这一点。他们盯着她的煤黑头发（新鲜染色）、黑色口红、黑色指甲油和她旧货店的黑色皮夹克。她看到的只是马球衫和卡其色裤子)”可知，因为迟到的关系，她受到了所有同学的瞩目，而她也只能屏住呼吸一直向前走到前排的空位坐下，第四段的外貌描写凸显了这一过程Jada的紧张和因为迟到受到关注的抱歉。故选D项。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上文“She hated football players. They thought they were so great.”（她讨厌足球运动员。他们觉得自己很了不起）以及该词组所在的句子“That group of jocks that hung out by the cafeteria always made fun of her.”（在自助餐厅附近闲逛的That group of jocks总是取笑她）”可知，that group of jocks指代前文的“football players”。故选D项。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“The new kid made his way over to her table with his head down. He had to squeeze into the seat,and his legs wouldn’t fit under the lab table. He shot Jada a glance and turned red.(新来的孩子低着头走到她的桌子前。他不得不挤进座位上，他的腿放不进实验室的桌子下面。他瞥了Jada一眼，脸红了)”可知，新来的孩子很害羞。故选C项。 C Chinese Paper Cutting or Jianzhi is the first type of paper-cutting design, since paper was invented in the Eastern Han Dynasty in China. It’s a wonderful art of Chinese handcrafts. The art form later spread to other parts of the world. After hundreds of years’ development, now they have become a very popular means of decoration. The paper-cuts are also used to decorate doors and windows, and therefore they are sometimes referred to as “chuang hua”, meaning Window Flower. Paper-cuts are chiefly used as decorations. However, today, Chinese paper-cuts are also used for religious and ceremonial purposes, and they’re buried with the dead and burned at funerals. Chinese people believe the red paper-cuts on the door can bring good luck and happiness to the whole family. The paper-cuts are more often seen during traditional Chinese festivals, particularly in Chinese New Year, the Spring Festival. They are also given as gifts to friends or other family members. Paper-cuttings aren’t produced by machine, but by hand. There are two methods of manufacture: one uses scissors, the other uses knives. The advantage of knife-cuttings is that considerably more paper cuttings can be made in one operation than with scissor cuttings. It’s easy to learn about cutting a piece of paper but difficult to master it with perfection. One must hold the knife in an upright fashion and press evenly (均匀地) on the paper with some strength. Flexibility is required but any hesitation will damage the whole image. People find hope and comfort in expressing wishes with paper-cuttings. For instance: for a wedding ceremony, red paper- cuttings are a traditional decoration on the tea set, the dressing table glass, and on other furniture. A big red paper character "XI" (happiness) is a traditional must on the newly-wed’s (新婚夫妇) door. 8. What can we learn from the second paragraph? A. Paper-cuts are mainly used as presents. B. Women are better at paper cutting than men. C. Paper-cutting varies from area to area. D. paper-cuts are used in various ceremonies and funerals. 9. Why the paper cuts can be seen during the traditional Chinese festivals? A. Because people believe the red paper-cuts can bring good luck and happiness. B. Because people believe they are made by hand. C. Because people believe they are the gifts given by friends. D. Because people believe they are easy to learn. 10. How does the author develop the last paragraph? A. By analyzing cause B. By making comparisons. C. By using examples D. By describing processes 11. Which of the following statement is NOT TRUE? A. Paper-cuts can be made by knives and scissors. B. Paper-cuts are only used as decorations. C. Hesitation is terrible when paper-cuts made. D. More paper-cuttings can be made in one operation when someone uses a knife. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国剪纸的用途和制作难易程度。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“However, today, Chinese paper-cuts are also used for religious and ceremonial purposes, and they’re buried with the dead and burned at funerals.（然而，今天，中国剪纸也用于宗教和仪式的目的，它们与死者一起下葬，在葬礼上焚烧。）”可知，剪纸用于各种仪式和葬礼。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Chinese people believe the red paper-cuts on the door can bring good luck and happiness to the whole family.（中国人相信门上的红色剪纸能给全家人带来好运和幸福。）”可知，在中国的传统节日里可以看到剪纸是因为人们相信红色的剪纸能带来好运和幸福。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“For instance:（例如:）”可知，作者是通过举例子展开最后一段。故选C。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Paper-cuts are chiefly used as decorations. However, today, Chinese paper-cuts are also used for religious and ceremonial purposes, and they’re buried with the dead and burned at funerals.（剪纸主要用作装饰。然而，今天，中国剪纸也用于宗教和仪式的目的，它们与死者一起下葬，在葬礼上焚烧。）”可知，剪纸并不只用作装饰，还有其他用途。故选B。 D When you need a job very much, you may end up taking one for which you are over qualified. Although you were initially grateful just to have the work, you now feel bored and depressed. Is there any way to change that? Start by changing your opinion, says Caitlin Kelly, the author of Malled, a book based on her experience as a sales clerk after losing her job in journalism. “Don’t focus on what you’re not getting but what you are getting,” she says. “Be patient and work attentively with a wide range of people. It doesn’t matter what the job is –there are always things you can learn and skills you can develop.” Hilary Pearl, the founder of a coaching firm, says, “Tell yourself the current situation isn’t the end of your career. Don’t overdramatize（过分夸大）the negative aspects but try to view the situation more philosophically: life has a series of stages, and this is one of them. Don’t forget to study even in the worst stage.” Consider that because you’re overqualified, you may be able to learn or do things on the job that might not have been possible. Of course, you may seek tasks and responsibilities that force you to learn something new or to work harder. “You may be operating on autopilot（习惯性地）right now, but chances are that people above you are stressed,” Sarah Hathorn says. “ Take things off your boss’s plate and let him know which projects or tasks you want to learn more about.” Always express your request positively, saying that you love new challenges, rather than complaining that you’re bored and underused, says Ethun, the president of the Park Avenue Group. In your down time, educate yourself about the company and its industry. “Read corporate information, analyst reports and related news articles,” she says. “If your boss accepts your suggestions, it will make you a more valuable employee.” 12. According to Caitlin Kelly, ______. A. one should be willing to do some small things B. being a salesman is not as important as being a journalist C. performing your regular duties well is important D. doing a simple job well will bring you a sense of success 13. What Hilary Pearl intends to express is that ______. A. work is just a stage of our whole life B. the present job doesn’t matter to us in a long run C. one should be satisfied with his present situation D. one should look forward instead of complaining about the present situation 14. The underlined words “take things off your boss’s plate” mean______. A. draw your boss’s attention B. share your boss’s burdens C. give your boss useful advice D. ask your boss for a better position 15. What is the common view about careers of the people mentioned in this passage? A. One should start his career from doing a simple job. B. One should improve himself and help others as well. C. One should keep learning new things to improve himself. D. One should pay much attention to the relationship with the boss. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是说明文。文章介绍了当工作时感到无聊和沮丧，有什么办法可以改变吗?，不同专家给出的一些不同建议。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Don’t focus on what you’re not getting but what you are getting,” she says.Be patient and work attentively with a wide range of people. It doesn’t matter what the job is –there are always things you can learn and skills you can develop”（她说：“不要把注意力放在你没有得到的东西上，而是放在你正在得到的东西上。”要有耐心，并且要专心地与各种各样的人一起工作。工作是什么并不重要，总是有你可以学习的东西和你可以发展的技能）”说明把自己的本质工作做好才是最重要的，故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Tell yourself the current situation isn’t the end of your career. Don’t overdramatize（过分夸大）the negative aspects but try to view the situation more philosophically: life has a series of stages, and this is one of them.（告诉你自己，现在的情况不是你职业生涯的终结。不要过分夸大消极的方面，而要试着从哲学的角度来看待这种情况：人生有一系列的阶段，这就是其中之一。）点明了希拉里•珀尔认为一个人应该向前看，而不是抱怨现状。故选D项。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。通过文中画线句后文“let him know which projects or tasks you want to learn more about.（让他知道哪些项目或任务你想要多了解一些。）” 可知画线部分的意思是你能与老板分担忧愁，故选B项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“It doesn’t matter what the job is –there are always things you can learn and skills you can develop.”作是什么并不重要，总是有你可以学习的东西和你可以发展的技能。根据第三段末句“Don’t forget to study even in the worst stage.( 即使在最糟糕的阶段也不要忘记学习。)”和最后一段“In your down time, educate yourself about the company and its industry.(在你休息时，了解一下公司和它的行业。)”可知关于本文中人们提到的职业，他们的共同观点是一个人应该不断学习新的东西来提高自己。故选C项。 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 To advance your career， think of yourself as a business You may be a scientist.

(同样，你的雇主会给你钱，以换取你完成产品或服务的工作)”可知，空处应该和该句子表达同一个意思，也就是说企业会提供产品和服务来换取金钱。E项“企业提供产品和服务以换取金钱”符合语境。E项中的“in exchange for money”和下文中的“give you money in exchange for the work”相呼应。故选E。 【17题详解】 根据主旨句“Think big.(雄心勃勃)”以及下文“However, be hold when you’re dreaming about what products and services you can offer.(然而，当你梦想着你能提供什么样的产品和服务时，请保持冷静)”可知， 空处承上启下，表明既要雄心勃勃的去想自己的未来，也要保持冷静，从自己的实际出发。C项“你得这么想自己”符合语境。和前文是顺接关系，和下文形成转折关系。故选C。 【18题详解】 根据下文“Identify something that you’re particularly good at.(找出你特别擅长的东西) ”以及“Career doors will open for you if you can prove you’re better at something than the average job applicant.(如果你能证明自己比一般求职者更擅长某件事，职业之门就会为你打开)”可知，本段主要讲述我们需要找出自己擅长的一点，这样就能凸显出自己的长处，也就是空处需要表明自己需要有擅长的技能。B项“专注于一项你可以‘推销’的技能”符合语境，可以概括本段。故选B。 【19题详解】 根据下文“You can review job advertisements to see what skills are required for the jobs you want. You can also conduct informational interviews with professionals in jobs that sound exciting to you.(你可以查看招聘广告，看看你想要的工作需要哪些技能。你还可以对那些听起来让你兴奋的工作中的专业人士进行信息面试)”可知，空后列举了两种了解“顾客”的方式，所以空处应该表明有几种了解“顾客”的方式。G项“有几种方法可以了解‘客户’的需求”符合语境。G项中的“understand the needs of your “customers””和前文“understand what potential “customers” consider valuable”相呼应。故选G。 【20题详解】 根据主旨句“Be patient during periods of change.(在变化时期保持耐心)”以及“Similarly, it’ll take time to learn a new skill or try to break into a different profession. Don’t expect you’ll be immediately productive and successful. (同样，学习一项新技能或尝试进入一个不同的职业也需要时间。不要指望你会马上变得富有成效和成功)”可知，本段主要讲述在转变时期要保持耐心，因为成功是需要时间的。由此推知，空处进一步表明我们需要给自己时间和空前去调整自己。F项“给自己空间，让自己朝着自己渴望的方向调整和成长”符合语境。故选F。 三、完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 George Edwin Mueller was born in 1918.

Jada sighed, slowly moved from the lockers where she had been leaning, and headed down the hall to her chemistry class. Honors Chemistry! Jada couldn’t believe that her mom was making her take the class because Jada’s counselor had said that she had real talent in science. Jada had to admit that she liked science and that last year’s class was a breeze, but come on Honors Chemistry? She wouldn’t know anyone in the class, and they probably wouldn’t know anyone like her. The good thing about being late is that it shortened the period a bit. The bad thing is that it made her seem like she was making a grand entrance. To make matters worse, the only two seats left in class were at the lab table at the very front of the room. Jada held her breath and walked in. Everyone’s eyes were on her. She just knew it. They were staring at her coal black hair (freshly dyed) , her black lipstick, her black fingernail polish, and her thrift-store black leather jacket. All she saw were polo shirts and khaki pants. This can’t get any worse, Jada thought. But at least she didn’t get shouted at by the teacher. He was too busy talking to a new kid. A HUGE new kid, maybe 6'4". He had to weigh at least 250 pounds. A football player, probably. She hated football players. They thought they were so great. That group of jocks that hung out by the cafeteria always made fun of her. The new kid made his way over to her table with his head down. He had to squeeze into the seat, and his legs wouldn’t fit under the lab table. He shot Jada a glance and turned red. Mr. Martin, the teacher, began class with this announcement: Okay, everyone. I know most of you know each other from last year’s Honors Physical Science class. Jada sighed loudly. “But just take a minute and introduce yourself to the person sitting at your table. You’ll be partners. You’ll be working closely together all year.” Jada rolled her eyes and stared straight ahead. Then she heard a surprisingly soft voice from next to her. “Hi. I’m Robert. I’m new here.” 4. What can be learned about Jada from the first two paragraphs? A. She thought this year’s chemistry class would be a breeze. B. She wasn’t willing to take the Honors Chemistry class. C. She was angry that her mother made her go to school D. She found she didn’t like science as she thought. 5. The writer described Jada’s appearance in paragraph 4 in order to ______. A. reveal how different she was from her classmates B. explain why she was late for school that morning. C. give readers a general impression of science students. D. imply that she felt sorry for making a grand entrance 6. In paragraph 5, the phrase “that group of jocks” refers to ______. A. the new kid B. Jada’s classmates C.

C Chinese Paper Cutting or Jianzhi is the first type of paper-cutting design, since paper was invented in the Eastern Han Dynasty in China. It’s a wonderful art of Chinese handcrafts. The art form later spread to other parts of the world. After hundreds of years’ development, now they have become a very popular means of decoration. The paper-cuts are also used to decorate doors and windows, and therefore they are sometimes referred to as “chuang hua”, meaning Window Flower. Paper-cuts are chiefly used as decorations. However, today, Chinese paper-cuts are also used for religious and ceremonial purposes, and they’re buried with the dead and burned at funerals. Chinese people believe the red paper-cuts on the door can bring good luck and happiness to the whole family. The paper-cuts are more often seen during traditional Chinese festivals, particularly in Chinese New Year, the Spring Festival. They are also given as gifts to friends or other family members. Paper-cuttings aren’t produced by machine, but by hand. There are two methods of manufacture: one uses scissors, the other uses knives. The advantage of knife-cuttings is that considerably more paper cuttings can be made in one operation than with scissor cuttings. It’s easy to learn about cutting a piece of paper but difficult to master it with perfection. One must hold the knife in an upright fashion and press evenly (均匀地) on the paper with some strength. Flexibility is required but any hesitation will damage the whole image. People find hope and comfort in expressing wishes with paper-cuttings. For instance: for a wedding ceremony, red paper- cuttings are a traditional decoration on the tea set, the dressing table glass, and on other furniture. A big red paper character "XI" (happiness) is a traditional must on the newly-wed’s (新婚夫妇) door. 8. What can we learn from the second paragraph? A. Paper-cuts are mainly used as presents. B. Women are better at paper cutting than men. C. Paper-cutting varies from area to area. D. paper-cuts are used in various ceremonies and funerals. 9. Why the paper cuts can be seen during the traditional Chinese festivals? A. Because people believe the red paper-cuts can bring good luck and happiness. B. Because people believe they are made by hand. C. Because people believe they are the gifts given by friends. D. Because people believe they are easy to learn. 10. How does the author develop the last paragraph? A. By analyzing cause B. By making comparisons. C. By using examples D. By describing processes 11. Which of the following statement is NOT TRUE? A. Paper-cuts can be made by knives and scissors. B. Paper-cuts are only used as decorations. C. Hesitation is terrible when paper-cuts made. D. More paper-cuttings can be made in one operation when someone uses a knife. D When you need a job very much, you may end up taking one for which you are over qualified. Although you were initially grateful just to have the work, you now feel bored and depressed. Is there any way to change that? Start by changing your opinion, says Caitlin Kelly, the author of Malled, a book based on her experience as a sales clerk after losing her job in journalism. “Don’t focus on what you’re not getting but what you are getting,” she says. “Be patient and work attentively with a wide range of people. It doesn’t matter what the job is –there are always things you can learn and skills you can develop.” Hilary Pearl, the founder of a coaching firm, says, “Tell yourself the current situation isn’t the end of your career. Don’t overdramatize（过分夸大）the negative aspects but try to view the situation more philosophically: life has a series of stages, and this is one of them. Don’t forget to study even in the worst stage.” Consider that because you’re overqualified, you may be able to learn or do things on the job that might not have been possible. Of course, you may seek tasks and responsibilities that force you to learn something new or to work harder. “You may be operating on autopilot（习惯性地）right now, but chances are that people above you are stressed,” Sarah Hathorn says. “ Take things off your boss’s plate and let him know which projects or tasks you want to learn more about.” Always express your request positively, saying that you love new challenges, rather than complaining that you’re bored and underused, says Ethun, the president of the Park Avenue Group.
