Summer heat can be dangerous, and heat leads to tragedy far too often. According to kidsandcars, org, an average of 37 young children per year die of car heat in the US, when they are accidentally left in a hot vehicle.
For Bishop Curry, a fifth grader from Mckinney, Texas, one such incident hit close to home. A six-month-old baby from his neighborhood died after hours in a hot car. After hearing about her death, Curry decided that something needed to be done. Young Curry, who turned 11 this year, has always had a knack for inventing things, and he drew up a sketch(草图) of a device he
called “Oasis.”
The device would attach to carseats and watch the temperature inside the car. If it reached a certain temperature in the car, and the device sensed a child in the carseat, it would begin to circulate cool air. Curry also designs the device using GPS and Wi-Fi technology, which would alarm the child’s parents and, if there was no response from them, the police.
Curry’s father believes that the invention has potential. “The cool thing about Bishop’s thinking is none of this technology is new,” he said. “We feel like the way he’s thinking and combining all these technologies will get to production faster.” His father even introduced the device to Toyota, where he works as an engineer. The company was so impressed that they sent Curry and his father to a car safety conference in Michigan.
In January, Curry’s father launched a campaign for the invention. They hope to raise money to finalize the patent, build models, and find a manufacturer. Their goal was $20,000, but so many people believed in Oasis’ potential that they have raised more than twice that--over $46,000.
Curry’s father remembers the first time he saw his son’s sketch. “I was so proud of him for thinking of a solution,” he said. “We always just complain about things and rarely offer solutions.”
4.What inspired Curry to invent Oasis?
A. His narrow escape from death after being locked in a car
B. His knowledge of many children’s death because of car heat
C. The death of his neighbor’s baby after being left in a hot car
D. The injury of 37 children in his school in a car accident
5.What would Oasis do if it was hot in a car with a child?
A. It would inform the parents or even the police
B. It would pump out the hot air in the car
C. It would sound the alarm attached to the car
D. It would get the window open to save the child
6.What does Curry’s father think is cool about Curry’s invention?
A. It used some of the most advanced technology
B. It simply combined technologies that existed
C. It could accelerate production of new technology
D. It is the most advanced among similar products
7.Why did Curry’s father start a campaign to raise money?
A. To conduct experiments to test the invention
B. To get other children devoted to inventions
C. To support a charity of medical aid for children
D. To get the patent and bring it to production
【答案】In January, Curry’s father launched a campaign for the invention. They hope to raise money to finalize the patent, build models, and find a manufacturer.☞D选项To get the patent and bring it to production
【解析】夏天的炎热可能是危险的,而炎热会导致悲剧的发生。在美国,每年平均有37名儿童死于汽车热。

5.细节理解题。根据Curry also designs the device using GPS and Wi-Fi technology, which would alarm the child’s parents and, if there was no response from them, the police.得知 Young Curry发明的“绿洲”设备可以通知孩子家人和警方。故选A。
6.细节理解题。根据Curry’s father believes that the invention has potential. “The cool thing about Bishop’s thinking is none of this technology is new,” he said. “We feel like the way he’s thinking and combining all these technologies will get to production faster.”得知父亲认为Young Curry的发明很酷,因为用到的科技都是现成的。故选B。
7.推理判断题。根据They hope to raise money to finalize the patent, build models, and find a manufacturer.得知Young Curry的父亲为他的发明筹钱用于获取专利,找到生产商进行生产。故选D。

The arm bones of women who lived 7-000 years ago show a surprising level of strength-even higher than today's professional athletes. That's according to a first-ever study comparing prehistoric(史前的)bones to those of living people. The finding suggests a revision of history — the everyday lives of prehistoric women were filled with hard labor, rather than just sitting at home doing lighter tasks while the men struggled and fought for life.
“Before the study, there are no clear records describing how our ancient ancestors lived. It can be easy to forget that bone is a living tissue, one that responds to the difficulties we put our bodies through,” said lead author Alison Macintosh. “Physical force and muscle activity both put pressure on the bone. The bone reacts by changing in shape, thickness and other aspects over time. ”
Previous studies only compared female bones to contemporary male bones, the researchers said — and that's a problem, because the response of male bones to stress and change is much bigger than that of women. For instance, as humans moved from a hunter-gatherer lifestyle constantly on the move to a more settled agrarian (农耕的)one, changes can be observed in the structure of the shinbone (胫骨) 一 and these changes were much more evident in men.
However, a comparison of the bones of prehistoric women to the bonos of living female athletes can help us work out a more accurate picture of what those prehistoric women were doing. “By analyzing the bones of living people and comparing them to the ancient hones, we can start to explain the kinds of labor our ancestors were performing,” Macintosh said. What they found was that women's leg strength hasn’t changed a great deal, but their arms used to be very powerful. Prehistoric women, the researchers found, had arm strength 11〜16 percent stronger than those of modern rowers, and 30 percent stronger than those of non-athletes.
8.What does the study tell about prehistoric women?
A. They were stronger than men.
B. They had lighter bones than men.
C. They did tough tasks as the men.
D. They spent most time staying at home.
9.What problem did previous studies on prehistoric bones have?
A. They lacked enough comparison.
B. They only studied men's bones.
C. They focused little on bones.
D. They ignored the lifestyles.
10.What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Bones’ structure.
B. Bones' thickness.
C. Bones’ response to stress.
D. Bones’ stress from hard labor.
11.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. It’s still hard to explain our ancestors' lifestyle.
B. Prehistoric women went through much suffering.
C. Women's arms have become much stronger over time.
D. Prehistoric women are stronger than contemporary females.
【答案】stronger than ☞D选项Prehistoric women are stronger than contemporary females
【解析】根据一项针对7000年前生活的女性骨骼研究显示,这些史前女性的手臂力量大于如今的女性。
8.细节理解题。根据The finding suggests a revision of history- the everyday lives of prehistoric women were filled with hard labor, rather than just sitting at home doing lighter tasks while the men struggled and fought for life.得知研究发现史前女性所从事的体力劳动和男性一样艰苦。故选C。
9.推理判断题。根据Previous studies only compared female bones to contemporary male bones, the researchers said-and that's a problem,得知问题是:此前的研究只是将女性骨骼和男性骨骼对比,但这种方法很可能低估了女性的工作强度,可以推断出缺乏比较。故选A。
10.词义猜测题。根据because the response of male bones to stress and change is much bigger than that of women.得知男性骨骼相对于女性骨骼来说对压力作出的反应更明显,
前后在对比the response of bones to stress。故选C。
11.推理判断题。根据Prehistoric women, the researchers found, had arm strength 11-16 percent stronger than those of modern rowers, and 30 percent stronger than those of non-athletes.
得知研究发现史前女性比现代女性更强壮。故选D。

A small insect is gettinga lot of attention in the United States. The rusty patched bumblebee (大黄蜂) is the first of its species to be declared endangered in the lower 48 states—meaning every state except Alaska and Hawaii. The rusty patched bumblebee is named for a rust-colored line on its back.
The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced this month it was adding the bee to its endangered species list. The insects are "on the brink of extinction, " according to the service. It said the bees were once found in 28 states. But there now are only small populations remaining in 13 states. The government agency will make a plan to help the dying bees recover. The agency said that such a plan might help other insects,like butterflies.
U.S. officials think land owners can take small steps to help the rusty patched bumblebee. They say land owners can be friendlier towards bees by using native plants in their gardens. The insects directly fertilize many kinds of fruit and vegetable crops. And they fertilize grain crops used to feed cattle and milk cows. It costs billions of dollars to duplicate the job the bees do for free. Land owners are also being urged to cut back on their use of pesticide products. The
officials also suggest that gardeners leave their plants alone at the end of the summer instead of cutting them. That way, the bees will have a place to live over the winter.
The Fish and Wildlife Service says the rusty patched bumblebee was added to the endangered species list partly because of habitat loss. Other reasons were disease, pesticides and climate change. Officials are worried that other bees will suffer, too. Another species of bees in Hawaii is also endangered.
12.How many states declared the rusty patched bumblebee endangered?
A. 13. B. 28. C. 48. D. 50.
13.Which one is harmful to the rusty patched bumblebee?
A. Planting native plants. B. Reducing the use of pesticide products.
C. Leaving plants alone. D. Cutting out plants regularly.
14.What can we know about the rusty patched bumblebee according to the text?
A. All the states declared it as endangered species.
B. It is named for a rust-colored line on its belly.
C. It is beneficial to land owners.
D. It is endangered mainly because of habitat loss.
15.What's the best title for the passage?
A. Bumblebee added to U. S. endangered species list
B. Why is bumblebee on the brink of extinction
C. Take steps to help bumblebee
D. The benefits of protecting bumblebee

13.推理判断题。根据第三段中The officials also suggest that gardeners leave their plants

做七选五时,“尤其代词不可放”是说:在填空处的前后语境中出现的一些代词不可忽视。有这样一道题:”They can be rich resources to improve your knowledge.”我接着就问学生“该选项中凭空多出一个代词they,这说明什么问题?”学生回答:“代词是起替代作用的,一定是前文出现的事物被they替代了,找到被替代的名词就可以了。”结果往文中一找,前面的语境是“Volunteering brings together all kinds of people.”。这下同学们就明白了,原来they替代的就是前文的all kinds of people短语。这样的现象在七选五中是很多见了,能帮助大家解决不少难题。比如本题第4小题,根据下句They can help you keep good health and remain fit.它们可以帮助你保持健康。可知与之相配的是D. Physical hobbies like sports and gardening can be very rewarding.(体育和园艺等体育爱好是非常有益的。)此处下文的they就是指hobbies like sports and gardening

六、语法填空
People have all turned to sad music to make themselves feel better at some point in their lives, 61.why does the music with double or even triple sadness help drag people out of low spirits?
A new study throws light on what's going on inside people's brains when they match their music to their feelings, and it looks as if sad music can be enjoyable, rather than62.(simple) depressing. Music of this sort can arouse positive memories in people's life , thus 63.(lift)their mood.
Psychologist Adrian North from Curtin University in Australia says there64.(existence) two groups of possible explanations for why people enjoy listening to sad music like this---one
from social psychology, and the other from cognitive neuroscience(神经学).
65.terms of social psychology, one idea about this is that people will feel 66.(good) about themselves if they focus on someone who's doing even worse. Everything's going to be okay, because this person is having 67.even worse day than they are.
Another idea from social psychology is that people like to listen to the very music68.shows their present life circumstances, because this kind of music makes them feel they are understood. With their emotions69.(share), they definitely get a certain amount of comfort.
So, the70.(conclude) again—sad music does cheer people up, and it works far better than happy music, in most cases.
【答案】
61.but
62.simply
63.lifting
64.exist
65.In
66.better
67.a
68.that
69.shared
70.conclusion
【解析】
61.考查并列连词。句意:为了让自己在人生的某个阶段感觉更好人们都转向悲伤的音乐,但为什么有两倍甚至三倍悲伤的音乐能帮助人们摆脱低情绪呢?前后表示一种转折关系,故答案为but。
62.考查副词。句意:看起来悲伤的音乐可以是令人愉快的,而不是简单地压抑。此处是副词修饰动词,故答案为simply。
63.考查现在分词。句意:这种音乐可以唤起人们生活中的积极记忆,从而提升他们的情绪。此处是现在分词做自然的结果状语。故答案为lifting。
64.考查动词。句意:有两组可能的解释为什么人们喜欢听这样的悲伤音乐。此处相当于there be 句型,two groups of possible explanations是句子主语,句子缺少谓语动词,故答案为exist。
65.考查固定词组。句意:就社会心理学而言,---。in terms of就---而言,故答案为In。
66.考查比较级。句意:就社会心理学而言,一个想法是,如果人们把注意力集中在一个更糟糕的人身上,他们会自我感觉更好。根据even worse可知句子用比较级,故答案为better。
67.考查冠词。句意:一切都会好起来的,因为这个人有一个比他们还要糟糕的日子。结合句意可知答案为a。
68.考查定语从句。句意:社会心理学的另一个观点是,人们喜欢听那些显示他们现在生活环境的音乐,因为这种音乐让他们觉得自己被理解了。此处music是先行词,后面的定语从句缺少主语和引导词,且先行词由the very修饰,故答案为that。
69.考查过去分词。句意:随着他们的情绪的分享,他们肯定会得到一定程度的安慰。此处是with的独立主格结构,with +宾语+过去分词,emotions和share之间是被动关系,故答案为shared。
70.考查名词。句意:所以,结论是,悲伤的音乐确实能让人振奋,而且它比快乐的音乐更有效,在大多数情况下。冠词用在名词前面,故答案为conclusion。

删除:把多余的词用斜线()划掉。
增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在该词下面写出该加的词。
修改:在错的词下划一横线,在该词下面写出修改后的词。

Today I was going home by bike where a little dog ran to me. I stopped in time avoid hitting the dog. Luckily, it was not injuring, but lay on the ground. I came nearer and touched its side gently. It jumped to its foot quickly and stared at me in a friendly way. Seeing nothing seriously, I was about to leave, but the dog stops me by biting my trousers. So I wanted to adopt to the dog but it was unfair for its master. Just then, the woman came, saying that the dog was his and that I could take it away. Thus I got a lovely pet and I was very grateful for this kind woman.
【答案】第一句 where改成 when
第二句 avoid前面加上 to
第三句 injuring改成 injured
第四句 foot改成feet
第五句 seriously改成 serious;stops改成stopped
第六句 to the dog 删掉to;the woman 改成a woman;his改成 hers
第七句 for改成 to
【解析】
【详解】
1.考查固定句式。句意:今天我骑自行车回家,这时一只小狗跑向我。was/were doing sth.---when---,正在做某事,这时候,故把第一句 where改成 when。
2.考查动词不定式。句意:我及时赶到,以免撞到狗。stop to do sth.停下来开始做某事。此处动词不定式做目的状语,故第二句 avoid前面加上 to。
3.考查形容词。句意:很幸运,它并没有受伤,但是躺在地上。be injured受伤的,故把第三句 injuring改成 injured。
4.考查名词复数。句意:它迅速地跳起来,用一种友好的方式盯着我。此处应该用名词复数,故把foot改成feet。
5.考查形容词。句意:我没看到什么严重的事,正要离开,但那条狗咬了我的裤子,阻止了我。形容词修饰不定代词,故把第五句 seriously改成 serious。
6.考查时态。句意:我没看到什么严重的事,正要离开,但那条狗咬了我的裤子,阻止了我。结合句意可知句子用一般过去时态,故把stops改成stopped。
7.考查动词。句意:所以我想收养这只狗,但这对它的主人来说是不公平的。此处adopt“抱养”是及物动词,后面直接跟宾语,故第六句 to the dog 删掉to。
8.考查冠词。句意:就在这时,一个女人来了,说那只狗是她的,我可以把它带走。此处表示泛指“一个女人”,故把the woman 改成a woman。
9.考查名词性物主代词。句意:就在这时,一个女人来了,说那只狗是她的,我可以把它带走。根据woman可知把his改成 hers。
10.考查固定词组。be grateful to sb.对某人感激,故把第七句 for改成 to。
