【原文】
Welcome to the Selmore Public Library. To join the library, you need a membership card. Take your passport
or ID card, as well as show you home address, to the information desk. After a period of two years, all readers are
required to go to the desk with a paper that has their name and present address on it, so the library can keep
up-to-date records of where people are living. There’s no need to register again and there is no charge for this.
If you can’t find the book you want on the shelf, you can book it in advance. If it’s in another library in the city,
we can usually get it for you within a week. If someone else has borrowed it, it can take a few weeks. Either way,
we tell you by phone when the book can be picked up. We will hold it for you for five days.
Books can be borrowed for fourteen days. Children’s books also have a two-week borrowing period. So do the
CDS. But DVDS, both children’s and adults’, can only be borrowed for up to seven days. Dictionaries can be
borrowed but normally only for one day.
The library opening hours have been changed slightly. Instead of opening late on Wednesday evenings until
8:00 pm, we will be closing at 6:00 pm, but we will close at 7:00 instead of 5:30 on Saturdays and we are going to
open on Sunday mornings from next month from 9:00 to 1:00. Notices are posted in the library about these.

Imagine that you’ve got a robot that looks like a human, talks like a human, and even interacts like a human.
Although you know it’s just a machine, you can relate to it. But would you consider it as a friend?
This is just one of the questions that you may find difficult to answer. Sooner or later artificial intelligence (AI)
will bring many moral challenges. But AI is here to stay and will have a big impact on our future. As Li Fei-Fei,
professor of computer science at Stanford University put it, “If our era is the next industrial revolution, as many
claim, AI is surely one of its major driving forces.”
Merriam-Webster defines AI as “the capability of a machine to copy intelligent human behavior”. But what
makes us want to create “thinking machines”? After all, thinking and consciousness are inimitable things of human
beings – at least at present. They separate us from all other creatures on Earth.
For one thing, humans constantly desire to develop new technology just because they can. The desire to create
AI is the ultimate expression of this: We want to test the limit of human intelligence by building a brand new
intelligence. For another, AI has all sorts of practical benefits to offer us. It would free us from repetitive work and
make our lives easier. Imagine getting to your destination with an AI-guided self-driving car. Imagine having an AI
tutor that could help you with your homework.
However, as AI becomes more important in life the worries will begin. Will AI effectively start to take over us?
Today, with online shopping sites and social networking platforms, AI already influences many of our choices.
Algorithms (算法) determine the content we see on the Internet, and make recommendations about everything from
what we watch on TV to where we travel. Some fear that machines will become better at making decisions than
humans are, and that therefore we will lose our control of AI.
But it’s not all doom and gloom(前景黯淡). Max Tegmark, author of Life 3.0: Being Human in the Age of
Artificial Intelligence, believes that with careful planning, AI can become a powerful tool. “I’m optimistic that we
can create an inspiring future with AI if we win the race between the growing power of AI and the growing wisdom
with which we manage it,” he told Motherboard.
But like it or not, AI is shaping the society and will dramatically change the way we live.
24. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “inimitable” in Paragraph 3?
A. Unique. B. Precise.
C. Common. D. Essential.
25. What does Paragraph 4 mainly focus on?
A. The influence of AI on our future. B. The reasons for man to develop AI.
C. Different voices on developing AI. D. Worries arising from the use of AI.
26. What is the author’s attitude towards AI’s impact on humans?
A. Concerned. B. Doubtful.
C. Objective. D. Subjective.
27. What can be concluded from Max Tegmark’ words?
A. AI won’t pose a threat to human beings.
B. AI will surely bring us a promising future.
C. Humans are wise enough to take control of AI.
D. Humans must keep up with the growing power of AI.
【答案】24. A 25. B 26. C 27. D
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人工智能发展的原因、影响和前景。
【24 题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段“After all, thinking and consciousness are inimitable things of human beings – at least
at present. They separate us from all other creatures on Earth.”(毕竟,至少在目前思维和意识是人类 inimitable。
他们把我们与地球上其他生物分开)可知,思维和意识把我们和地球上所有其他生物分开。根据上下文可以
推断,思维和意识是人类独有的东西,由此可知划线词 inimitable 指的是“独特的”,与 unique 意思接近。
故选 A 项。
【25 题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段的“For one thing, humans constantly desire to develop new technology just because
they can. The desire to create AI is the ultimate expression of this: We want to test the limit of human intelligence
by building a brand new intelligence. For another, AI has all sorts of practical benefits to offer us. It would free us
from repetitive work and make our lives easier. ”( 一方面,人类不断渴望开发新技术,只是因为他们有能力。
创造人工智能的想法在于想通过建立一个全新智能来测试人类智能的极限。另一方面,人工智能为我们提
供了各种各样的实际好处,它能将我们从重复的工作中解放出来,使我们的生活更容易。)可知,第四段分
两个方面讲述人类创造人工智能的原因,即人类渴望开发新技术,以及人工智能为人类提供了实际的好处。
故选 B 项。
【26 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段的主要内容,尤其第一句“However, as AI becomes more important in life the worries
will begin. ”(然而,随着人工智能在生活中变得越来越重要,担忧也随之而来)可知,第五段客观描述了人
类对于发展人工智能的担忧,但第六段开头“But it’s not all doom and gloom.”指出前景并不黯淡。最后一
段“But like it or not, AI is shaping the society and will dramatically change the way we live.”(不管你喜不喜
欢,人工智能正在重新塑造社会,并将极大地改变我们的生活方式。)指出,不管你喜不喜欢,人工智能正
在重新塑造社会,并将极大地改变我们的生活方式。故可以推断,作者对于人工智能给人类带来的影响的
态度是客观的。故选 C 项。
【27 题详解】
推理判断题。根据 Max Tegmark 所表达的“I’m optimistic that we can create an inspiring future with AI if we win
the race between the growing power of AI and the growing wisdom with which we manage it,”(我相信如果我们在
人工智能日益强大的力量和我们管理人工智能的日益增长的智慧两者之间的竞争中获胜,我们可以用人工
智能创造一个鼓舞人心的未来。)可推知,Max Tegmark 认为人类必须跟上人工智能日益增长的步伐。故选
D 项。
C
Scientists say they have discovered an earthquake-like event that can happen during a hurricane or other
powerful ocean storms. They are calling it a “stormquake”. Researchers came up with this name after studying
events connected with or caused by earthquakes on the sea floor during such storms. They found that the shaking
can feel as strong as a magnitude 3.5 earthquake.
Intense energy from hurricanes and other severe storms can create very large waves in the ocean. These waves
then “interact” in some places with solid earth under the sea to cause “intense seismic source activity,” said the
leader researcher Fan, a seismologist and professor at Florida State University. “We can have seismic sources in the
ocean just like earthquakes within the hard outer layer of the Earth,” he added. “The exciting part is seismic sources
caused by hurricanes can last for hours or even days.”
The researchers found evidence of more than 10,000 stormquakes in coastal areas of the United States and
Canada. Stormquakes were found to have happened around continental shelves or sea floors containing flat land
and at lower depths, the research showed. Even with evidence of so many stromquakes happening, it was not
known until recently that such events even existed. This is mainly because scientists studying earthquakes have
generally considered ocean-caused seismic waves as “background noise”.
The research found that major U.S. hurricanes had produced a lot of stormquakes. One example was Hurricane
Bill in 2009 in the Atlantic Ocean, which caused about 300 stormquakes as it moved north, past New Jersey. Other
examples of stormquakes were Hurricane Ike in 2008 and Hurricane Irene in 2011. But the study found no evidence
of stormquakes off the coast of Mexico. Also, no such activity was recorded in areas along the U.S. East Coast,
starting in New Jersey, and continuing all the way down to Georgia. The team noted that even Hurricane Sandy, one
of the most costly storms in U.S. history, did not cause a single stormquake. Fan says this suggests that
stormquakes are strongly influenced by the physical shape of the seafloor’s surface and seafloor conditions.
Fan added that there are still “lots of unknowns” about stormquakes. But he said discovering them “suggests
we are reaching a new level of understanding of seismic waves”. He hopes the discovery will lead to improved
study methods for hurricanes, which in the past have mainly been observed from satellites in the sky. “Now we are
able to understand the phenomenon — or at least track part of its passage — through the solid earth as well,” he
said.
28. What is the distinctive feature of a stormquake?
A. Being seasonal. B. Being destructive.
C. Being long-lasting. D. Being interactive.
29. Why were stormquakes unknown to science previously?
A. Because they were extremely rare on the Earth.
B. Because they were once neglected by scientists.
C. Because they generally happen in deep sea floors.
D. Because they are quite similar to common earthquakes.
30. What message is conveyed in Paragraph 4?
A. All hurricanes don’t bring about stormquakes.
B. Stormquakes happen more along the East Coast.
C. Stronger hurricanes tend to produce stormquakes.
D. The sea floor’s condition changes in stormquakes.
31. What is the significance of the discovery?
A. Offering an alternative angle to research hurricanes.
B. Helping to predict an earthquake more accurately.
C. Suggesting the richness of the seismic wave field.
D. Preventing potential hurricanes and lessening losses.
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. A 31. A
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种类似地震的自然现象——“风暴地震”,介绍了其形成过程、特点
和影响其形成的条件,这一发现有助于改进飓风研究方法。
【28 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The exciting part is seismic sources caused by hurricanes can last for hours or even
days.(令人兴奋的部分是,飓风造成的震源会持续数小时甚至数天)”可知,风暴地震的显著特征是持续时间
长。故选 C。
【29 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Even with evidence of so many stromquakes happening, it was not known until
recently that such events even existed. This is mainly because scientists studying earthquakes have generally
considered ocean-caused seismic waves as ‘background noise’.( 即使有证据表明发生了如此多的大地震,但直
到最近人们才知道这些地震的存在。这主要是因为研究地震的科学家通常认为海洋地震波是‘背景噪
音’)”可知,以前的科学对风暴地震一无所知,是因为他们曾经被科学家忽视过。故选 B。
【30 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“The team noted that even Hurricane Sandy, one of the most costly
storms in U.S. history, did not cause a single stormquake.Fan says this suggests that stormquakes
are strongly influenced by the physical shape of the seafloor’s surface and seafloor
conditions.( 研究小组指出,即使是飓风桑迪,美国历史上最严重的风暴之一,也没有造成风暴地震。Fan
说,这说明风暴地震的形成受海底表面物理形状和海底条件的影响很大)”可推知,并不是所有的飓风都带
来风暴地震。故选 A。
【31 题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“He hopes the discovery will lead to improved study methods for hurricanes,
which in the past have mainly been observed from satellites in the sky.(他希望这一发现将有助于改进研究飓风
的方法,过去主要是通过空中卫星观测飓风)”可知,这个发现的意义是为研究飓风提供了另一个角度。故
选 A。
D
The most intuitive argument against immigration we come across is that immigrants are causing higher
unemployment rate or lower wages for low-skilled workers within the nation, which is probably not true in the US.
Statistics show that in the US, wages and unemployment rate are rarely affected for the reason that immigrants
move more flexibly for jobs than local workers.
Immigration boosts economy by driving up both demand and supply. Official data show that immigrants have
a far more diverse composition than the native-born. They have a higher percentage of doctoral degree owners
while also a higher percentage of worse-educated. The effect is that companies actually adjust to the change in job
market in the long-run and figure out their way to deal with a mix of workers with different skills and levels, which
at the end of the day fits them into different jobs.
For those who have a bachelor or a doctoral degree, they are the driving engines whose innovation largely
boosts the US economy. Immigrants to the United States tend to generate more patentable technologies than natives:
though they constitute only 18 percent of the 25 and older workforce, immigrants obtain 28 percent of high-quality
patents. Immigrants are also more likely to become Nobel winners in physics, chemistry, and physiology or
medicine. These innovations can increase productivity and job supplies in the long run.
For those badly-educated, even though they did cause a negative impact to net financial contribution to the US
government, the impact is rather small compared to those undereducated native people. It is because as immigrants
who come to seek for a change for their life, it is more likely for them to take a job rather than accepting the basic
living standard provided by government subsidy like those desperate native-born Americans who have lost faith in
the so-called “American Dream”. In the long run, it eases the burden of government and brings in more tax income.
In this sense, their stable income also brings about more domestic demand in the US.
All in all, immigrants are actually beneficial for the US economy, largely owing to the values created by those
highly-educated. The expulsions of unauthorized immigrants may bring about negative impact to the economy.
32. Why does the author write this passage?
A. To appeal to more foreigners to immigrate to America.
B. To urge the US to treat unauthorized immigrants equally.
C. To confirm what’s long been believed about immigration.
D. To argue for the positive economic effects of immigration.
33. How are immigrants different from the natives?
A. They contribute less to government finances.
B. They have less access to government subsidy.
C. They’re more confident of the American Dream.
D. They’re more likely to go where jobs are available.
34. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Companies are more willing to employ immigrants.
B. Immigrants are more adaptable than native Americans.
C. Most Americans with a doctor’s degree are immigrants.
D. Immigration creates more job opportunities for America.
35. How is the passage mainly developed?
A. By listing specific statistics. B. By making a detailed analysis.
C. By presenting typical examples. D. By comparing different opinions.
【答案】32. D 33. D 34. D 35. B
【解析】

选 D。
【33 题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“It is because as immigrants who come to seek for a change for their life, it is
more likely for them to take a job rather than accepting the basic living standard provided by government subsidy
like those desperate native-born Americans who have lost faith in the so-called “American Dream”.( 因为作为来
寻求生活改变的移民,他们更有可能去找一份工作,而不是像那些对所谓的‘美国梦’失去信心的绝望的

向于去有工作的地方。故选 D。
【34 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“For those who have a bachelor or a doctoral degree, they are the driving engines
whose innovation largely boosts the US economy.(对于那些拥有学士或博士学位的人来说,他们是驱动引擎,
他们的创新在很大程度上提振了美国经济)”以及“These innovations can increase productivity and job
supplies in the long run.(从长远来看,这些创新可以提高生产率和就业供应)”可知,移民为美国创造了更多
的就业机会。故选 D。
【35 题详解】
推理判断题。文章第二段从移民的构成比土生土长的人更加多样化,且能够最终适应不同的工作,来说明
移民通过增加需求和供给来刺激经济;第三段中“For those who have a bachelor or a doctoral degree, they are
the driving engines whose innovation largely boosts the US economy.(对于那些拥有学士或博士学位的人来说,
他们是驱动引擎,他们的创新在很大程度上提振了美国经济)”论述了受过高等教育的移民,是如何对美国
经济带来有益影响的;第四段中“For those badly-educated, even though they did cause a negative impact to net
financial contribution to the US government, the impact is rather small compared to those undereducated native
people. (对于那些受教育程度低的人来说,尽管他们对美国政府的净财政贡献造成了负面影响,但与那些受
教育程度低的人相比,影响是相当小的)”则论述了教育水平不高的移民,更倾向于工作而不是接受政府补
贴,从而从长远上减轻了政府的负担,带来了更多的税收收入。可推知,文章是通过做详细的分析展开的。
故选 B。
第二节 (共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选
项。
A popular Yale University psychology course now available for free online. I decided to see what it was all
about. ___36___ After taking the course, I’m convinced that anyone who adopts and practices the strategies
provided can truly become happier.
Reconnecting with a friend can boost happiness, but so can a meaningful encounter with a stranger. One of the
most complex things we can engage with is another person’s mind. ___37___In fact, many studies have found that
the more you use social media, the less happy you are. This is because social media—especially picture-heavy
platforms—present things others have that you don’t, making you want more and appreciate less.
___38___However, varying your approach is key. If you perform the same act of kindness over and over, it
may begin to feel like an obligation or a boring task. The reactions you got made you feel better about yourselves.
Kindness brings other happiness benefits, too. Helping others takes the focus away from our own worries and
problems, which can boost happiness. And being generous won’t increase levels of the stress hormone cortisol.
Perhaps surprisingly, kindness improves overall physical health.
Taking exercise causes hormonal changes in the body that make you feel good and help interrupt negative
thoughts. Clinically depressed people who exercised regularly improved just as much as those who took
antidepressants.___39___But anecdotally, most people who exercise will tell you they feel better.
Shortchanging your sleep can make you bad-tempered.___40___A lot of people know that sleep is good but
some are forced to sacrifice sleep because they have other things taking up their time.
A. I was curious to see what the course was recommending.
B. Volunteering to help someone can make you happier than doing self-centered things.
C. Getting enough shut-eye can boost your mood.
D. Ways of our minds trick us into being less happy.
E. After all, I’ve been writing about happiness for years.
F. Online friends don’t count.
G. Getting out of a depression is not exactly the same as happiness.
【答案】36. E 37. F 38. B 39. G 40. C
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要分享了作者在网上学习了耶鲁大学流行的心理学课程后,了解到的一些能让人
变得更快乐的建议。
【36 题详解】
根据上文“A popular Yale University psychology course now available for free online. I decided to see what it
was all about.(耶鲁大学流行的心理学课程现在可以在网上免费学习。我决定去看看到底是怎么回事)”以及
后文“After taking the course, I’m convinced that anyone who adopts and practices the strategies provided can
truly become happier.(在上了这门课之后,我相信任何采纳并实践这些策略的人都能真正变得更快乐)”可推
知,本句承接上文说明作者决定去网上学习心理学课程的原因。故 E 选项“毕竟,多年来我一直在写关于
幸福的文章”符合语境,故选 E。
【37 题详解】
根据上文“Reconnecting with a friend can boost happiness, but so can a meaningful encounter with a stranger.
One of the most complex things we can engage with is another person’s mind.(和朋友重新联系会增加幸福感,和
陌生人有意义的接触也会增加幸福感。我们能接触到的最复杂的事情之一就是另一个人的思想)”以及后文
“In fact, many studies have found that the more you use social media, the less happy you are. This is because
social media—especially picture-heavy platforms—present things others have that you don’t, making you want
more and appreciate less.(事实上,许多研究发现,你使用社交媒体越多,你就越不快乐。这是因为社交媒体
——尤其是图片丰富的平台——展示了别人拥有而你没有的东西,让你想要的更多,感激的更少)”可知,
上文提到要和人接触会增加幸福感,后文则提到了社交媒体对人的负面影响,可推知本句是在说明接触网
友并不算是与人接触。故 F 选项“网友不算”符合语境,故选 F。
【38 题详解】
根据后文“However, varying your approach is key. If you perform the same act of kindness over and over, it may
begin to feel like an obligation or a boring task. The reactions you got made you feel better about yourselves.
Kindness brings other happiness benefits, too. Helping others takes the focus away from our own worries and
problems, which can boost happiness. And being generous won’t increase levels of the stress hormone cortisol.
Perhaps surprisingly, kindness improves overall physical health.(然而,改变你的方法是关键。如果你一遍又一
遍地做同样的善事,你可能开始的时候回觉得这是一种义务或一项无聊的任务。你得到的反应让你对自己
感觉更好。善良还能带来其他的快乐。帮助别人可以把我们的注意力从自己的烦恼和问题上转移开,这可
以增加幸福感。慷慨不会增加压力荷尔蒙皮质醇的水平。也许令人惊讶的是,善良能改善整体的身体健康)”
可知,本段主要说明的是帮助别人能使人快乐,后文中 Helping others 可与 B 选项中 help someone 相对应。
故 B 选项“志愿帮助别人比做以自我为中心的事情更能让你快乐”符合语境,故选 B。
【39 题详解】
根据 上文 “Taking exercise causes hormonal changes in the body that make you feel good and help interrupt
negative thoughts. Clinically depressed people who exercised regularly improved just as much as those who took
antidepressants.(锻炼身体会引起体内荷尔蒙的变化,这会让你感觉良好,并有助于打断消极的想法。定期锻
炼的临床抑郁症患者与服用抗抑郁药的患者的改善效果一样好)”以及后文“But anecdotally, most people
who exercise will tell you they feel better.(但有趣的是,大多数锻炼的人会告诉你他们感觉好多了)”可知,本
段主要说明的是锻炼身体可以让人感觉良好,并且摆脱抑郁,上文中 depressed people 可与 G 选项中
depression 相对应。故 G 选项“摆脱抑郁并不等同于快乐”符合语境,故选 G。
【40 题详解】
根据上文“Shortchanging your sleep can make you bad-tempered.(睡眠不足会让你脾气暴躁)”可知,上文提到
睡眠不足会导致脾气暴躁,那么反过来,充足的睡眠可以改善你的情绪。故 C 选项“充足的睡眠可以改善
你的情绪”符合语境,故选 C。

53. A. problem-solving B. life-changing C. heart-warming D. body-building
54. A. considerate B. generous C. dedicated D. passionate

【答案】41. C 42. D 43. A 44. B 45. B 46. A 47. C 48. B 49. A 50. D 51.
C 52. C 53. B 54. B 55. A

个病人相符。A. fitted 适合,合身;B. equaled 等于,比得上;C. matched 和……相配,相一致;D. resembled
类似,像。根据上文“Mike Mushaw joined the national bone marrow registry”可知,Mushaw 在国家骨髓登
记处报名了,决定捐献骨髓给需要的人。由此可推断出,这里提到的病人应该是与 Mushaw 的骨髓相匹配,
才可以接受捐献,matched 意为“和……相配”,符合语境,fitted 意为“适合,合身”,指形状或尺寸适
合,不符合语境。故选 C 项。
【42 题详解】

去医院或看医生外,她很少出门。A. count 数数,计算总数;B. impact 对……有影响;C. perform 表演;D.
work 起作用。根据下文“Eleanor, sick with a rare immuno deficiency disease”可知,接受 Mushaw 捐赠的女

用”,符合语境。故选 D 项。

考查名词词义辨析。句意:她的母亲 Jessica 告诉 NBC,“选择要么接受移植要么面对死亡。”尽管如此,
仍然没有成功的保证。A. conditions 状况;B. options 选择;C. consequences 结果;D. strategies 策略。根据

whether his donation would…”可知,起初 Mushaw 并不知道自己的骨髓会捐赠给谁,有此可推断出,当他

Taking a gap year before you move into further education is not a new concept, ___56___ now focuses on

___57___ (help) you in later life.
Doing something productive is exactly what students ___58___(encourage)to do because doing more

这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在深造之前休学一年来获得对以后生活有帮助的技能,介绍了在这期间
可以从事的一些有益的活动,以及人们对此的看法。
【56 题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:在你继续深造之前休学一年并不是一个新概念,这一概念如今的重点是充分利用学
术生活中的这段时间。此处为非限制性定语从句修饰先行词 concept,且先行词在从句中作主语,指物,故
应用关系代词 which 引导,that 不能引导非限制性定语从句。故填 which。

后文“in later life”可知表示将来的动作应用一般将来时。故填 will help。
【58 题详解】
考查动词时态语态。句意:做一些有成效的事情正是学生们被鼓励去做的,因为做一些更有目的性的事情,
比如工作经验或慈善工作,可以帮助他们获得在大学竞争中要用到技能。根据上文 is 可知为一般现在时,
且从句中主语与谓语动词构成被动关系,故应用一般现在时的被动语态,主语为 students,谓语动词用复数。
故填 are encouraged。
【59 题详解】
考查省略句。句意:做一些有成效的事情正是学生们被鼓励去做的,因为做一些更有目的性的事情,比如
工作经验或慈善工作,可以帮助他们获得在大学竞争中要用到的技能。when 引导状语从句时,常省略和主
句相同的主语和从句中的 be 动词,结合语境从句为现在进行时,从句完整为 when(students are) competing for
a place at university。故填 competing。
【60 题详解】
考查介词。句意:尽管休空档年有其好处,一些学生担心他们负担不起。结合句意表示“尽管”应用介词
despite,句首单词首字母要大写。故填 Despite。
【61 题详解】
考查冠词。句意:一位名叫汤姆的学生告诉 BBC,对他来说,空档年是一个“陌生的概念”。concept 是可
数名词,此处表泛指应用不定冠词,且 alien 是发音以元音音素开头的单词,应用 an。故填 an。
【62 题详解】
考查形容词。句意:你不需要去很远的地方,你甚至可以通过做有偿工作来赚钱。修饰后文 work,表示“有
偿的”应用形容词 paid,作定语。故填 paid。
【63 题详解】
考查名词。句意:对于那些有资金的人来说,工作、志愿服务和旅行的结合无疑是一个惊人的机会。根据
上文冠词 a 可知应填单数名词 combination,作主语。故填 combination。
【64 题详解】
考查副词。句意:对于那些有资金的人来说,工作、志愿服务和旅行的结合无疑是一个惊人的机会。修饰
句子应用副词 undoubtedly。故填 undoubtedly。
【65 题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:它增加了你的自信和独立性,为你提供了一个学习新手艺的机会,并给你时间来思
考大学是否适合你。此处为宾语从句,从句中不缺少成分,表示“是否”应用 whether。故填 whether。

第二节 读后续写 (满分 25 分)
67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Once there was a ship travelling on the tough sea and on the ship there was a pair of couple. All of a sudden,
the ship met with an accident and the couple had no choice but to run to the life boat without delay. After reaching
there, they realized that there was space only for one person. At that very moment, the husband pushed his wife
behind him and jumped onto the lifeboat himself, leaving his wife standing on the sinking ship, shouting something
desperately to her husband eyes filled with tears.”
The teacher stopped her story-telling and asked her students, “Guys, guess what it was that she shouted.”
Most students answered. “I hate you!”
After listening to all this reply, the teacher glanced through the whole class again and noticed that there was a
boy sitting silently throughout. Then she asked him the same question.
The boy answered, “I believe she would have shouted-Take care of our child.”
Listening to his remarks, the teacher was surprised and asked the boy doubtfully. “Have you heard of this story
before?”
Shaking his head, the boy said softly and sadly, “No, I haven’t. But that’s what my mother said to my father
before she died of a deadly disease.”
Moved and feeling sad, the teacher replied. “Your answer is absolutely right!”
Then she continued, “Let’s take up the story. The ship sank eventually and the husband went home and
brought up their daughter alone. Many years later after the death of the man, their daughter was tidying up all his
belongings when she found his diary. In his diary she found that when her parents were on the ship, her mother had
already been diagnosed (诊断) with advanced illness and at the critical moment, the father rushed to the only
chance of survival.”
注意:
1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
In his diary, the man mentioned he wished to sink to the ocean with his wife but for their daughter he had to
live.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________
The story was finished and the class was silent.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
In his diary, the man mentioned he wished to sink to the ocean with his wife but for their daughter he had to
live. Without him, their baby daughter would become an orphan. After drowning himself in sorrow for a short time,
he uplifted himself and learned how to raise baby. Whenever faced with hardships, he would inspire himself with
his wife’ words—“Take care of our child.” Seeing the little girl grow into a sunny, pretty girl with double love from
both parents, the man knew he made it to keep his promise.
The story was finished and the class was silent. Nobody talked or laughed as usual. Instead, it seemed that
every student was lost in deep thought, tasting the moving life story. The teacher was sure that the students were
reflecting on their replies and that they had understood the moral of the story. Of the Good and Evil in this world,
there are hidden secrets behind them. So we should not really focus on the surface and judge anyone without
understanding them first. Put yourself in others’ shoes and then you can really understand their behavior.

这是一篇读后续写作文。通过阅读所给文章可知,文章主要讲述了老师在课堂上给学生们讲了一个故事:
故事的大致内容是一对夫妇在海上遇到事故,但是救生艇只能容纳一个人,最后,丈夫推着身后的妻子,
自己跳上了救生艇,留下妻子站在正在下沉的船上,绝望地对着丈夫喊着什么。老师让学生猜想妻子说了
什么,大多数学生的回答是“我恨你!”,但是一位学生却回答说妻子让丈夫照顾好孩子。老师继续说故
事,多年以后,他们的女儿在整理遗物时发现了父亲的日记,原来母亲已经被诊断出病情严重,在关键时
刻,父亲冲向了唯一的生存机会。
【详解】续写部分分为两段,第一段开头是:在他的日记中,他提到他希望和妻子一起沉入大海,但为了
他们的女儿,他必须活下去。接下来可以写没有他,他们的宝贝女儿会变成孤儿。在短暂的悲伤之后,他
提升了自己,学会了如何抚养孩子。每当遇到困难时,他都会用妻子的话激励自己——“照顾好我们的孩
子。”看着小女孩成长为一个阳光明媚、漂亮可爱、受到父母双爱的女孩,这个男人知道他这样做是为了
履行自己的诺言。第二段的开头是:故事讲完了,全班安静下来。接下来可以写没有人像往常一样说话或
大笑。相反,每个学生似乎都陷入了沉思,品味着动人的人生故事。老师确信学生们正在反思他们的回答,
并且他们已经理解了这个故事的寓意。这个世界上的善与恶,背后都隐藏着秘密。所以我们不应该只关注
表面,在不了解任何人之前就对他们进行评判。设身处地为别人着想,你就能真正理解他们的行为。
【点睛】续写内容得当,使用了固定短语和高分句型。如:be faced with;take care of;make it;keep one’s
promise;reflect on;focus on;put oneself in others’ shoes 等固定短语。①Seeing the little girl grow into a sunny,
pretty girl with double love from both parents, the man knew he made it to keep his promise.中使用了现在分词
seeing 作 状 语 ; ②The teacher was sure that the students were reflecting on their replies and that they had
understood the moral of the story.中 that 引导的是宾语从句。
