and grew up in Pittsburgh，Pennsylvania，and Shaker Heights，Ohio，in a family of scientists.Celeste went to Harvard University and earned an MFA from the University of Michigan，where she won the Hopwood Award.‎ Although her novel is not about race，the characters are Asian.The main character is Lydia，a teenage girl，who is the favorite of three children born to a white mother and a ChineseAmerican father.The story is about Lydia's disappearance，and the emotions the family goes through as the mystery unfolds.The whole family deals with sorrow，regret，and exposed secrets as they search for their lost daughter.‎ Though the characters in this story are Asian，Ng says she didn't really want to include Asian characters.She was afraid people would think the story was about real people in her life.Because she grew up in America and doesn't speak Chinese，she was actually surprised that she included Asian characters in the book.‎ The book has taken off，especially on Amazon，where it won the Editor's Pick for No.1 Best Book of the Year in 2014.Ng is still getting used to the attention，saying she is still amazed when people tell her they have read her book.With so many readers，it's safe to say this is a book you should read.But if you're looking for a simple mystery，this book might not be for you.Most readers warn that you should not read this book unless you're prepared to cry.‎ ‎1．The

surprised that she included Asian character in the book.‎ 分析：本句为主从复合句。Because引导原因状语从句，and连接两个并列的原因状语，that引导宾语从句。‎ 译文：因为她在美国长大，不会说中文，所以她惊讶于自己能写出书中的人物包括亚洲人。‎ ‎1．A　考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“The story is about Lydia's disappearance，and the emotions the family goes through as the mystery unfolds”可知，Everything I Never Told You这部小说是关于一个孩子失踪了的家庭，故选A项。‎ ‎2．B　考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“she was actually surprised that she included Asian characters in the book”可知，她惊讶于自己能写出书中的人物包括亚洲人。故选B项。A项文中未提及；C项错在“She was born in Hong Kong”，与文中“Ng was born in America”不符；D项与原文中的“She was afraid people would think the story was about real people in her life”不符。‎ ‎3．B　考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“Most readers warn that you should not read this book unless you're prepared to cry”可知，大多数读者认为这是一部看了会哭的悲剧小说，故选B项。‎ ‎4．D　考查主旨大意。通读全文尤其根据第一段中的“Celeste

二、阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。‎ 7‎ ‎(2017·武汉4月调研)The Chinese Garden of Friendship was built as a beautiful symbol of friendship 61.____________ Sydney in the State of New South Wales and Guangzhou in the province of Guangdong, China (sister cities of sister states), to mark Australia’s bicentenary in 1988.‎ The garden 62.____________ (design) and built by Chinese landscape architects and gardeners 63.____________ (follow) the Taoist principles of “Yin－Yang” and the five opposite elements—earth, fire, water, metal and wood.These principles also stress the 64.____________ (important) of Qi, the central force of life and energy.‎ Yin－Yang 65.____________ (play) such a vital role that just one missing element would disrupt(扰乱) the garden’s harmony and balance.However, when 66.____________ (combine) perfectly, the five elements form a fluid and nurturing environment.Everything you encounter in the garden has been hand－picked and very carefully placed to capture the five elements and the energy of Qi.‎ Unlike western－style gardens, there are no planted flowerbeds 67.____________ neatly－cut lawns.Instead, wild 68.____________ (aspect) of nature are recreated in landscapes 69.____________ feature waterfalls, mountains, lakes and forests.‎ The art of Chinese Garden design began in imperial parks during the Shang Dynasty 3, 000 years ago.Darling Harbour’s Chinese Garden of Friendship is a small－scale version of a 70.____________ (type) private garden from this time.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了象征友谊的中国园林的设计原理和风格，以及园林里的一些特色风景。‎ ‎61．between　解析：考查连词。between...and...意为“在……和……之间”，此处指作为两个城市之间友谊的象征，符合语境。故填between。‎ ‎62．was designed　解析：考查动词的时态和语态。根据语境可知，这座花园是由中国的景观设计师和园艺家设计修建的。主语“The garden”与“design”之间构成被动关系，且此处是陈述过去发生的事情，因此应用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was designed。‎ ‎63．following　解析：考查非谓语动词。此处指景观设计师和园林师遵循道家的阴阳法则。根据语境可知，“architects and gardeners”与动词follow之间构成主动关系，故应用follow的现在分词形式作状语。故填following。‎ ‎64．importance　解析：考查词性转换。句意为：阴阳和五行强调“气”的重要性，它是生命和能量的主要力量。根据词法知识可知，此处应用important的名词形式作动词“stress”的宾语，且用定冠词“the”修饰。故填importance。‎ 7‎ ‎65．plays　解析：考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意为：阴阳起着如此关键的作用，以至于一个要素的缺失都会扰乱花园的和谐与平衡。根据语境可知，该句陈述的是客观事实，因此用一般现在时；主语“YinYang”是抽象名词，因此谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式。故填plays。‎ ‎66．combined　解析：考查非谓语动词。句意为：当五个要素完美结合时，就形成了一个流动的培养环境。此处when引导的是时间状语从句，主句主语“the five elements”与动词combine之间构成被动关系，故用被动语态，其中主语和be动词可省略。故填combined。‎ ‎67．or　解析：考查连词。句意为：与西式风格的花园不同，这个花园里没有种植花圃和修剪整齐的草坪。在否定句中表示“和……”用连词or。故填or。‎ ‎68．aspects　解析：考查名词复数。根据下文中的“are recreated”可知，主语是复数。故填aspects。‎ ‎69．that/which　解析：考查定语从句。根据语境可知，这些风景以瀑布、大山、湖泊和森林为特色。分析句子结构可知，空格处引导定语从句，修饰先行词“landscapes”，在从句中作主语，故用that或which引导。故填that/which。‎ ‎70．typical　解析：考查词性转换。根据空格前的“a”和空格后的“private garden”可知，此处应用形容词作定语，typical意为“典型的”。故填typical。‎ 三、短文改错。‎ 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。‎ 增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧)，并在其下面写出该加的词。‎ 删除：把多余的词用斜线()划掉。‎ 修改：在错的词下画一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ 注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；‎ ‎　　 2.只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。‎ ‎(2017·银川检测)I prefer my English classes to be taught in English only.What we all know, a good learning environment is

have conversations about mental well-being, ” says Dr. Barbara Van Dahlen, a clinic psychologist. Simply asking someone “How are you” may just get “Fine, thank you”, says Van Dahlen. “It’s important to be aware of what could lead to somebody needing help they’re afraid to ask for, ” she adds. The followings are four signs a friend might need help. ‎ ‎　2　 ‎ If you sense something different about the way your friend is acting — maybe he’s not smiling much these days, for instance — trust your feelings and reach out. “Try saying, ‘I see these things. I care about you. Can I be of help? ’”, Van Dahlen says. ‎ He’s unusually unhappy or annoyed. ‎ ‎　3　“It may take more than one time to follow up if you’re talking to someone who is upset, ” Van Dahlen says, “but if a friend responds with anger, that could mean you’re onto something. ” ‎ He’s less put together than usual. ‎ Drinking more and ignoring personal hygiene (卫生) can be signs that someone is in trouble. Don’t consider these behaviors are nothing. 　4　He seems ‎ 7‎ overwhelmed (压倒) by life. ‎ No one is happy all the time, but if your once optimistic friend can’t find anything to be hopeful about, he may be having thoughts of worthlessness, sadness and something negative. “　‎5　‎” says Van Dahlen, “so that more people can get the help they need. ” ‎ A. He’s acting a bit more withdrawn. ‎ B. He doesn’t seem like himself lately. ‎ C. Instead, treat them as a sign to care for your friend. ‎ D. Getting angry quickly and easily can be a sign that something is wrong. ‎ E. It’s a constant effort to bring into the open discussions about mental health. ‎ F. Many people avoid talking about it no matter how close they are to someone. ‎ G. We want people to get comfortable being more open and discussing mental health. ‎ ‎【文章大意】本文是关于健康的说明文。文章介绍了人们心理出现问题时的四个迹象。 ‎ ‎1. 【解析】选F。考查代词指代。根据本空后的 We don’t tend to have conversations about mental well-being 可知, “无论人们跟某人有多亲密, 他们都不会跟对方谈论心理方面的问题”。F项中的it指代本空上一句中的 emotional pain。故选F。‎ ‎2. 【解析】选B。考查意义对等。根据下文中something different about the way your friend is acting可知, “朋友跟平常不一样”是他心理出现问题的迹象之一。故选B。‎ ‎3. 【解析】选D。考查意义对等。根据本段的小标题 He’s unusually unhappy or annoyed可知, “易怒是(心理) 出问题的一个迹象”。故选D。‎ ‎4. 【解析】选C。考查代词指代。根据本空前的 Don’t consider these behaviors are nothing可知, 不要把这些不同寻常的行为不当一回事, “而是要把它们当成你去关爱朋友的迹象”。C项中的them指代上一句中的 behaviors。故选C。‎ ‎5. 【解析】选G。考查逻辑关系。根据本空后的 so that more people can get the help they need 可推测, Van Dahlen“希望人们能更自在地敞开心扉谈论心理健康”, 只有这样, 更多的人才能得到他们需要的帮助。故选G。‎ 五、书面表达 ‎ ‎(2017·长沙四校一模)假如你是校学生会主席李华。圣诞节即将到来，学生会将为你校学生举办一场圣诞晚会。请你根据以下提示，给你校外教Mr.Smith写信邀请他参加。要点如下：‎ ‎1．时间：下周五6：30 pm—8：30 pm; 地点：教学楼305室 7‎ ‎2．晚会过程：(1)Mr.Smith扮演圣诞老人；(2)教大家唱圣诞歌；(3)介绍西方人如何过圣诞节 注意：1.词数100左右；‎ ‎2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；‎ ‎3．开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。‎ Dear Mr.Smith，‎ I’m writing to tell you a good piece of news.________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________‎ Yours truly，‎ Li Hua One possible version：‎ Dear_Mr.Smith，‎ I’m_writing_to_tell_you_a_good_piece_of_news.As you know，Christmas is approaching.In order to help you have a better festival experience, the Students’ Union will organize a Christmas party next Friday.I hope you can attend it.‎ You can dress up as Father Christmas giving away presents, teach us to sing Christmas songs and tell us what the westerners, especially middle school students do during Christmas.These are all typical activities, and I believe we all have a strong interest in them.The party will be held in Room 305, Teaching Building at 6：30 pm.It will last about two hours.I wonder if you’d like to come and enjoy the fun.‎ Looking forward to your coming with great pleasure.‎ Yours_truly，‎ Li_Hua 7‎
