Isaac Newton: The Last Sorcerer Micheal White
From the author of Stephen Hawking: A Life in Science, comes this colorful description of the life of the world’s first modern scientist. Interesting yet based on fact, Michael White’s learned yet readable new book offers a true picture of Newton completely different from what people commonly know about him. Newton is shown as a gifted scientist with very human weaknesses who stood at the point in history where magic ended and science began.

Fermat’s Last Theorem Simon Singh
In 1963 a schoolboy called Andrew Wiles reading in his school library came across the world’s greatest mathematical problem: Fermat’s Last Theorem ( 定 理 ). First put forward by the French mathematician Pierre de Fermat in the seventeenth century,
the theorem had baffled and beaten the finest mathematical minds, including a French woman scientist who made a major advance in working out the problem, and who had to dress like a man in order to be able to study at the Ecole Polytechnique. Through unbelievable determination Andrew Wiles finally worked out the problem in 1995. An unusual story of human effort over three centuries, Fermat’s Last Theorem will delight specialists and general readers alike.

【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Isaac Newton: The Last Sorcerer Micheal White部分中Newton is shown as a gifted scientist with very human weaknesses who stood at the point in history where magic ended and science began.(牛顿被证明是一位有天赋的科学家,他站在历史上魔术结束而科学开始的那个点上,有着人类特有的弱点。)可知在Michael White的书中,牛顿被描述为一个伟大但不完美的人。故C项正确。

When a group of children politely stop a conversation with you, saying, “We have to go to work now.” you’re left feeling surprised and certainly uneasy. After all, this is the 21st century and the idea of children working is just unthinkable. This is, until you are told that they are all pupils of stage schools, and that the “work” they go off to is to go on the stage in a theatre.
Stage schools often act as agencies to supply children for stage and television work. More worthy of the name “stage school” are those few places where children attend full time, with a training for the theatre and a general education.
A visit to such schools will leave you in no doubt that the children enjoy themselves. After all, what lively children wouldn’t settle for spending only half the day doing ordinary school work, and acting, singing or dancing their way through the other half of the day?
Then of course there are times for the children to make a name and make a little money in some big shows. Some stage schools give their children too much professional work at such a young age. But the law is very tight on the amount they can do. Those under 13 are limited to 40 days in the year; those over 13 to 80 days.
The schools themselves admit that not all children will be successful in the profession for which they are being trained. So what happens to those who don’t
make it? While all the leading schools say they place great importance on children getting good study results, the facts seem to suggest this is not always the case.
4. People would stop feeling uneasy when realizing that the children they’re talking to .
A. attend a stage school B. are going to the theatre
C. have got some work to do D. love singing and dancing
5. In the writer’s opinion, a good stage school should .
A. produce star performers
B. help pupils improve their study skills
C. train pupils in language and performing arts
D. provide a general education and stage training
6. “Professional work” as used in the text means .
A. ordinary school work B. money-making performances
C. stage training at school D. acting, singing or dancing after class
7. Which of the following best describes how the writer feels about stage schools?
A. He thinks highly of what they have to offer.
B. He favors an early start in the training of performing arts.
C. He feels uncomfortable about children putting on night shows.
D. He doubts the standard of ordinary education they have reached.
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. D
【解析】

这是一篇说明文。主要说明了舞台学校经常充当为孩子们提供舞台和电视工作的机构,虽然所有的顶尖舞台学校都说他们非常重视孩子们取得好的学习成绩,但事实似乎表明情况并非总是如此。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。从第一段中最后一句This is, until you are told that they are all pupils of stage schools, and that the “work” they go off to is to go on the stage in a theatre.
(这是,直到你被告知,他们都是舞台学校的学生,他们的“工作”是去剧院的舞台。)可知,这些孩子们说的“工作”实际上是在剧院舞台上演出,而不是实际上的外出工作,因而他们也就不必为孩子们担心了。答案为A。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。从第二段Stage schools often act as agencies to supply children for stage and television work. More worthy of the name “stage school” are those few places where children attend full time, with a training for the theatre and a general education.(舞台学校经常充当为孩子们提供舞台和电视工作的机构。更配得上“舞台学校”这个名字的是那些孩子们可以全日制学习的地方,他们可以接受戏剧培训和普通教育。)可知,作者认为一个好的舞台学校应该提供普通教育和舞台训练。答案为D。
【6题详解】
词义猜测题。根据上下文,上文第三段说孩子们半天进行普通学校学习,第四段又说剩余的半天他们“…make a name and make a little money in some big shows.”这是学校提供给他们的“professional work”,第五段开始又说“The schools themselves admit that not all children will be successful in the profession for which they are being trained.”从which引导的定语从句中,我们可知这种professional work应该是stage training。答案为C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。从文章最后一句While all the leading schools say they place great importance on children getting good study results, the facts seem to suggest this is not always the case.(虽然所有的顶尖学校都说他们非常重视孩子们取得好的学习成绩,但事实似乎表明情况并非总是如此。)可知,作者对孩子们学校里可以受到正常的教育感到怀疑。答案为D。
【点睛】文章主题和中心思想的阐述往往需要大量细节信息的支持,这些细节对于理解全文内容至关重要,同时也是归纳和概括文章中心思想的基础。命题人往往会要求考生根据不同的要求阅读文章,以获得某些特定的信息,或准确地寻求所需的细节,并对细节进行直接或间接辨认和理解。有一种文章细节理解题是一一对应型。答案与题目在表达形式和意义上直接吻合,一一对应,一目了然。属于浅层次的阅读试题,分数比例较少。解答此类试题时,不必通篇细看原文,而应采取“带着问题找答案”的方法,先从问题中抓住关键性词语(题眼),然后以此为线索,运用略读及查读的技巧快速在文章中寻找与此问题相关的:段落、语句,仔细品味,对照比较,确定答案。如第一小题,从第一段中最后一句This is, until you are told that they are all pupils of stage schools, and that the “work” they go
off to is to go on the stage in a theatre.(这是,直到你被告知,他们都是舞台学校的学生,他们的“工作”是去剧院的舞台。)可知,这些孩子们说的“工作”实际上是在剧院舞台上演出,而不是实际上的外出工作,因而他们也就不必为孩子们担心了。答案为A。

Science has a lot of uses. It can uncover laws of nature, cure diseases, make bombs, and help bridges to stand up. Indeed science is so good at what it does that there’s always a temptation(诱惑) to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful. David Brooks, author of The Social Animal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character,and Achievement, appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed to resist the temptation.
Brooks gained fame for several books. His latest book The Social Animal, however, is more ambitious and serious than his earlier books. It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics. The book focuses on big questions: What has science revealed about human nature? What are the sources of character? And why are some people happy and successful while others aren’t?
To answer these questions, Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines(学科). Considering this, you might expect the book to be a dry recitation of facts. But Brooks has structured his book in an unorthodox(非常规的), and perhaps unfortunate, way. Instead of introducing scientific theories, he tells a story, within which he tries to make his points, perhaps in order to keep the reader’s attention.So as Harold and Erica, the hero and heroine in his story, live through childhood, we hear about the science of child development and as they begin to date we hear about the theory of sexual attraction. Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters.
On the whole,Brooks’ story is acceptable if uninspired. As one would expect, his writing is mostly clear and, to be fair, some chapters stand out above the rest. I enjoyed, for instance, the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own. While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters, the more
serious problems with The Social Animal lie elsewhere. These problems partly involve Brooks’ attempt to translate his tale into science.
8. The author mentions the functions of science at the beginning of the passage to__________.
A. illustrate where science can be applied
B. demonstrate the value of Brooks’ new book
C. remind the reader of the importance of science
D. explain why many writers use science in their works
9. According to the author, which of the following could be a strength of the book?
A. Its strong basis.
B. Its convincing points.
C. Its clear writing.
D. Its memorable characters.
10. What is the author’s general attitude towards the book?
A. Contradictory.
B. Supportive.
C. Cautious.
D. Critical.
11. What is the author likely to write about after the last paragraph?
A. Problems with the book.
B. Brooks’s life experience.
C. Death of the characters.
D. Brooks’s translation skills.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】

【名师点睛】
推理判断题的常见考查形式及解题方法:
推理判断题属于主观题,是层次较高的题目。它包括判断和推理题。这两类题常常相互依存,推理是为了作出正确的判断,正确的判断又依赖于合乎逻辑的推理。此类题要求在理解表面文字的基础上,作出判断和推论,从而得到文章的隐含的意思和深层的意思,也就是通过文章中的文字信息,上下逻辑关系及事物的发展变化等已知的信息,推断出作者没有直接表达的态度和观点。
一、常见的推理判断题的考法:
1)推测作者写作目的或意图。
2)推测文章的观点或结论。文章第23小题最后一段中的链接词“while”之前是这本书的优势,其后作者指出了其不足。因此作者对这部书持批判的态度。故选D项。
3)推断文章出处。
4)是非判断题。
5)逻辑排序题。
二、推理判断题的解题方法 :
推理判断题不仅要求考生读懂文章中的每个句子的意思还要推理它们之间的关系,结合自己的生活常识和经验,再通过逻辑推理和判断,理解文章的言外之意,从而揭示文章的深层涵义。任何一篇文章都有其特定的写作目的,读者应当知道如何去做或按照某种方式传递思考问题。推理判断题的答案不可能在文章中直接找到,因此推理时我们务必要忠于原文,在文章中寻找并确定可推论的依据,即:已知部分-推论的前提,从中推测出未知部分-推理的结论,切忌妄加评论,把自己的观点当成作者的观点。第22小题根据最后一段中“…, his writing is mostly clear and , to be fair, some chapters stand out above the rest. I enjoyed,… ”可知作者认为写作思路清晰是这本书的一大优势。故选C项。24小题文章最后一段中连接词“while”后面部分开始谈论这本书存在的问题。因此作者紧接着应该还是在写这本的不足。故选A项。

(2013·山东卷)Sparrow is a fast-food chain with 200 restaurants.Some years ago,the group to which Sparrow belonged was taken over by another company.Although Sparrow showed no sign of declining,the chain was generally in an unhealthy state.With more and more fast-food concepts reaching the market,the Sparrow menu had to struggle for attention.And to make matters worse,its new owner had no plans to give it the funds it required.
Sparrow failed to grow for another two years until a new CEO,Carl Pearson,decided to build up its market share.He did a survey,which showed that consumers who already used Sparrow restaurants were extremely positive about the chain,while customers of other fast-food chains were unwilling to turn away fromthem.Sparrow had to develop a new promotional campaign.
Pearson faced a battle over the future of the Sparrow brand.The chain's owner now favored rebranding Sparrow as Marcy's restaurants.Pearson resisted,arguing for an advertising campaign designed to convince customers that visits to Sparrow restaurants were fun.Such an attempt to establish a positive relationship between a company and the general public was unusual for that time.Pearson strongly believed that numbers were the key to success,rather than customers' spending power.Finally,the owner accepted his idea.
The campaign itself changed the traditional advertising style of the fast-food industry.The TV ads of Sparrow focused on entertainment and featured original songs
performed by a variety of stars.Instead of showing the superiority of a specific product,the intention was to put Sparrow in the hearts of potential customers.
Pearson also made other decisions which he believed would contribute to the new Sparrow image.For example,he offered to lower the rent of any restaurants which achieved a certain increase in their turnover(营业额).
These efforts paid off,and Sparrow soon became one of the most successful fast-food chains in the regions where it operated.
12. Which was one of the problems Sparrow faced before Pearson became CEO?
A. The number of its customers was declining.
B. Its customers found the food unhealthy.
C. It was in need of financial support.
D. Most of its restaurants were closed.
13. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Customers of Sparrow restaurants.
B. Sparrow restaurants.
C. Customers of other fast-food chains.
D. Other fast-food chains.
14. For what purpose did Pearson start the advertising campaign?
A. To build a good relationship with the public.
B. To stress the unusual tradition of Sparrow.
C. To learn about customers' spending power.
D. To meet the challenge from Marcy's restaurants.
15. What was Pearson's achievement as a CEO?
A. He managed to pay off Sparrow's debts.
B. He made Sparrow much more competitive.
C. He helped Sparrow take over a company.
D. He improved the welfare of Sparrow employees.
【答案】12. 13. 14. 15.
【解析】
试题分析:本文讲述了快餐店Sparrow 从经营出现危机到新的CEO Carl
Pearson通过积极努力最终走向成功的故事。
【12题详解】
C 推理判断题。根据第一段的“Although Sparrow showed no sign of declining”可知A项表述不正确;根据第一段的“With more and more fast-food concepts reaching the market”可知D项表述不符合文意;B项表述文中没有提及;根据第一段的最后一句“And to make matters worse, its new owner had no plans to give it the funds it required.”可知C项表述符合文意,故选C。
【13题详解】
D 细节理解题。根据第二段的第二句“He did a survey, which showed that consumers who already used Sparrow restaurants were extremely positive about the chain,”可知Sparrow快餐店的老顾客对该快餐连锁非常支持;其后的用while引导的句子表示对比,“然而,其他连锁快餐的顾客也不想离开它们”,故此处的them指代其他的连锁快餐。故选D。
【14题详解】
A 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Pearson resisted, arguing for an advertising campaign designed to convince customers that visits to Sparrow restaurants were fun. Such an attempt to establish a positive relationship between a company and the general public was unusual for that time.”可知Pearson利用广告和公众建立良好的关系。A项表述符合文意,故选A。
15题详解】
B 细节理解题。根据最后一段可知,他们的努力得到了回报,Sparrow快餐成为它所到之处的最成功的快餐连锁。B项表述“他让Sparrow更有竞争力”符合文意,A、C、D三项表述均与文意不符,故选B。

【20题详解】
考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。由该段中but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us可知,尽管我们有来自家人及朋友的大量信息,但归根结底还是要依靠我们自己来作出正确的选择。A项概括全段内容,故选A。
【点睛】关于七选五的做题步骤:
1、通读全文,对文章进行快速浏览,寻找主题句,抓住文章结构及文章的写作内容。在阅读过程中,要注意文章的开始与结束段落,尤其是文章的首段及末段末句,因为“开门见山”与“结尾总结”的写作方式为常见的写作方式,首段的末句一般是是全文的主题所在,说明本文将探讨哪些内容,并简要指出文章的写作思路,有时甚至会以提纲的形式进行呈现。首段的末句对于快速掌握文章的主题有重要意义。
2
、详读段落,在短时间内,找出每段写作内容的关键词。明确各段的主题句或主旨大意。文章正文部分通常分为若干小段落。各段落会根据整体文章写作主题展开,对文章主体进行的不同方面的描述。找出各个小段落中的关键词,明确其描述内容,为整体试题的解决做好铺垫。阅读各个空的前后句,标记关键词,关键词包括句中的核心名词或名词词组(如带有形容词的名词词组)、专有名词、时间数字、代词、连词等。重点阅读各个问题附近的句子,圈定线索词,然后从选项中寻找相关的特征词,以确定答案。做题时可以采用代入排除法。如果一题做不出或拿不准,可先放过,继续往下读,先做容易的能做出的题,直到读完整篇文章。
3、定位选项,明确各备选选项的含义,抓住其关键词语,根据文章整体结构与具体内容,将选项填入文中,填写时尤为注意各选项中出现的句子衔接手段及句中的衔接标志词。在定位选项时,要特别注意空格上下段的写作内容,以及空格上段尾句和下段首句的结构和意义。将所选项放入空白处,看看是否与上下文构成语义及逻辑上的直接关系,是否符合该处语境。能否承接前后的写作线索。使文章无论内容还是衔接上都能做到通顺。
4、通读复检,将所选答案代入文中,再次通读全文,重点考查逻辑关系和关联结构。
在完成选项定位后,应通读全文,检查文章内容是否完整,语义是否连贯合理、各段落内容是否紧扣主题,语篇结构是否通顺连贯、具有一致性、合乎逻辑,写作思路是否清晰明了,格式以及用语是否恰当贴切,从而判断选择的答案是否正确。同时,我们还应注意对相近选项的对比分析,个别干扰项由于与某个正确选项的内容相近具有很强的干扰性,这时就需要我们认真分析,排除干扰,从而得出正确选项。
5、确定排除,研究多余选项,确定排除理由,最终确定答案。
第四节完形填空(每小题1.5分,共30分)
The sandwich man
Michael rises every morning at 4:00, in good and bad weather, and walks into his sandwich shop. By 5:50, he’s making the rounds of the shelters on Centre Streets. He ___21___ out 200 sandwiches to the homeless, before beginning his workday.

【解析】
这是一篇议论文。文章讲了在中国,超重儿童越来越多。不运动、吃垃圾食品和喝碳酸饮料带来了世界上超重青少年的增长。为了应对中国肥胖儿童的增长,国务院今年发布了指导方针。
【41题详解】
考查时态。根据时间状语in 2025,可判断出是发生在将来的事情,用一般将来时,所以填will reach。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。___2___ surpasses (超过) the population of Spain是一个定语从句,关系词在从句中作主语,指物,所以填that/which。
【43题详解】
考查时态和语态。“他们”和“报道”之间是被动关系,用被动语态,表示发生在过去的事情,用一般过去时,所以填were reported。
【44题详解】
考查介词。文中表示“包括9100万肥胖儿童”,用介词,所以填including。
【45题详解】
考查名词。作句子主语,用名词,文中表示“有效的措施”是复数意义,所以填measures。
【46题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:不运动、吃垃圾食品和喝碳酸饮料带来了世界上超重青少年的增长。contribute to带来了,该短语是固定短语,所以填to。
【47题详解】
考查名词。句意:不运动、吃垃圾食品和喝碳酸饮料带来了世界上超重青少年的增长。文中表示“超重青少年”,该空需要用名词,所以填youth。
【48题详解】
考查不定式。句意:为了应对中国肥胖儿童的增长,国务院今年发布了指导方针。作目的状语,用不定式结构,所以填To respond。
【49题详解】
考查宾语从句的虚拟语气。that the local government in China ___9___ (strength) the training of medical staff around children's health and promote knowledge of ___10___ (balance) eating and drinking habits among their parents.是一个宾语从句,动词urge后的宾语从句,从句中用“should + 动词原形”,should可以被省略的虚拟语气,所以填(should) strengthen。
【50题详解】
考查形容词。该空修饰名词eating,用形容词,所以填balanced。
第六节短文改错(每个1分,共10分)
51.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。

In the summer holiday following my eighteen birthday, I took driving lessons. I still remember how hard first day was. Before getting into the car, I thought I had learned the instructor’s orders, so once I started the car, my mind goes blank. I forgot what he had said to me altogether. The instructor kept repeating the word, “Speed up!” “Slow down!” “Turning left!” I was so much nervous that I could hardly tell which direction was left. A few minutes late, the instructor asked me to stop the car. It was a relief and I came to a suddenly stop just in the middle on the road.
【答案】
【解析】
【详解】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在暑假期间考驾照第一天发生的故事。
1. 考查数词。在我十八岁生日后的那个暑假。eighteen意思为“十八,十八个”,表示数量,eighteenth表示“第十八个的”,故将eighteen改为eighteenth。
2. 考查冠词。我依然记得第一天是多么艰难。句中特指开始学驾照的第一天,所以在first前加上the。也可以加上my,my first day表示“我(学驾照)的第一天”。故在first前加the或my。
3. 考查连词。根据句意可知作者本以为自己已经掌握了教练的话,结果一发动车,脑中一片空白。所以前后文为转折关系。故将so改为but。
4. 考查时态。根据前文中的started可知时态为一般过去时,故将goes改为went。
5. 考查单复数。教练一直喊“加速”,“减速”,“左转”。 word的意思主要是“单词,消息”,words 可以表示为word的复数,表示某人说的话。这里指教练说的那些话,故将word改为words。
6. 考查非谓语动词。分析语境可知教练的话“加速”,“减速”,“左转”都是祈使句,根据前文“Speed up!” “Slow down!”也可以看得出来。祈使句应该用动词原形,故将Turning改为Turn。
7. 考查固定句型。我如此紧张以至于无法分辨哪个方向是左。固定句型sothat表示“如此以至于.”,much为多余成分。故将much去掉。
8. 考查副词。做形容词的时候,later是late的比较级,如:Their deadline is quite late. Ours is even later.(他们的截止日期很迟.我们的更迟.)做副词的时候,late是迟的意思,later是稍后、随后的意思。句意:几分钟之后。故将late改为later。
9. 考查形容词。我紧急刹车。suddenly是副词,表示“意外地,忽然地”。
sudden为形容词,表示“突然的;迅速的”。a sudden stop表示“急刹车”。故将suddenly改为sudden。
10. 考查介词。分析语境可知作者表示“在路中间急刹车”,on the road表示“在路上”, the middle of the road表示“路的中央”,强调的是“the middle”。故将on改为of。
第七节书面表达(共25分)

【答案】Dear Sir/Madam,
I am a Chinese high school student who will graduate in June next year. Admiring your reputation as a top 10 UK university, I am writing to apply to get further education in your university.
As a student of liberal arts, I’d like to major in English literature. On one hand, I’m fascinated by reading books of English literature due to its long history and a long list of world-famous writers. On the other hand, I’m sure that I can learn it well because English is my favorite subject during my senior school years, which will be helpful for my further studying college. Being an active, hardworking, optimistic and tolerant person, I not only have excellent academic performance but also have participated in a variety of activities, from which I have improved my leadership and communication skills as well as the ability to do team work.
I understand overseas study can be challenging and demanding. Nevertheless, I am convinced that I will strive hard to fulfill my literary dream if given the chance. Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. I would appreciate it if you could
reply to me at your earliest convenience.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
