【原文】W: Hi, I’d like to tell you an interesting experience. It happened two years ago. A man named Charles Fagin from a Hollywood film studio came to me and said my house looked perfect for a film he was working on. He asked me if I’d be interested in renting it out for a few weeks.
The money he offered was attractive, but there was one more thing. They’d dig up my lovely garden. I was a little hesitant. But finally I agreed.
Fagin told me they’d paint some rooms, but he promised they’d repaint them after the shoot, and they’d fix anything they damaged. Preparation on the house began a month before the film shoot. The crew painted the living room grey. They brought in a larger sofa and dug holes in the ceiling for the lights.
For the film shoot which took place over four days, I agreed to be out of my house,
- 27 -
staying with my relatives. Fortunately for me, the shoot went well. The scenic painters’ attempt at repainting my living room before they left were so poor that I ended up painting it again myself.

A
I was thrilled to go on an adventure with my master Rev.Young, a tall man with kind eyes.Mr. Muir was going too. But he said, “Such a helpless creature will only be in the way.” I was disappointed when I heard what he said, and yet I still wanted to follow him.
One stormy morning Mr. Muir set out alone to study nature. He ordered me to stay behind. But I could not let him go alone, so I followed him into the wild weather. We crossed Taylor Glacier and endless sheet of ice, which was cut by cracks. I was unafraid and sailed over these bottomless holes. Mr. Muir was delighted that he was not crossing them alone.
As dusk fell, we reached an enormous crack that was impossible to jump across. In between the two sides was a U-shaped bridge of ice, so thin that one wrong step would mean dropping to your death. Daylight was disappearing, and gusty winds blew snow into my eyes. I turned to return to camp the way we came. However, Mr. Muir decided to cross the crack. He sat down and rode the narrow U-strip as if it were a horse. Once safe on the other side, he called out to me. But I had never been so terrified before. “I am not good at climbing steep slopes.” I was scared and thought.
Then I looked at Mr. Muir, already across on the safe side. Slowly, I began to cross it. I could feel his eyes on me the entire way. Before I knew it, I made the happiest landing of my life. I ran round and round and jumped up and hugged him. From that day on, we spent every moment together.
21. Why didn’t Mr. Muir want to take me with him at the beginning?
A. He suggested that I need some rest.
- 27 -
B. He possessed great self-confidence.
C. He considered me as a burden to him.
D. He thought I was too weak to make a trip.
22. How did Mr. Muir manage to cross the crack?
A. By climbing steep slopes.
B. By sliding over the U-strip.
C. By leaping across the crack.
D. By riding the narrow ice bridge.
23. Which of the following words best describes their trip?
A. Horrible. B. Risky. C. Well-planned. D. Pleasant.
【答案】21. C 22. D 23. B
【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了作者跟随Muir先生所进行的一次惊险的野外探险。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中But he said, “Such a helpless creature will only be in the way.”可知Muir认为带着作者这样一个无能的人只会碍事。由此可知,一开始Muir先生不想带作者一起去,是因为他认为作者是他的负担。故选C。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中He sat down and rode the narrow U-strip as if it were a horse.可知他坐下骑在这个窄的U型带上仿佛它是一匹马。由此可知,Muir先生试图通过骑在这个狭窄的雪桥上来设法跨过这道裂缝。故选D。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中In between the two sides was a U-shaped bridge of ice, so thin that one wrong step would mean dropping to your death.可知在桥的两边有一座U形的冰桥,非常薄,走错一步就会摔死。由此可推知,他们的旅行惊心动魄,稍有不小心可能就会丧命,故B选项risky“有风险的”最能描述他们的旅行。故选B。
B
Life for almost anyone is increasingly influenced by screens. Not only are screens themselves cheap to make, but they also make things cheaper. Any place that can fit
- 27 -
a screen in can cut costs. And any activity that can happen on a screen becomes cheaper. The physical experience of learning, living and dying is becoming smooth glass. All of this has led to a curious new reality: Human contact is becoming a luxury good (奢侈品).
“What we are seeing now is the luxury of human engagement,” Milton Pedraza, the chief of the Luxury Institute, said. Expected spending on experiences such as enjoyable travel and dining is outpacing spending on goods, according to his company’s research, and he sees it as a direct response to the rapid increase of screens.
Screens exposure starts young. And children who spent more than two hours a day looking at a screen got lower scores on thinking and language tests, according to early results of a landmark study supported by the National Institutes of Health. The study focuses on brain development of more than 11,000 children. Most disturbingly, the study is finding that the brains of children who spend much time on screens are different. For some kids, their cerebral cortex (大脑皮层) would become thinner before expected time. In adults, one study found an association between screen time and depression.
There is also the reality that in our culture of increasing separation, in which so many of the traditional gathering places and social structures have disappeared, screens are filling a vital gap.
For normal people, running away from the screen becomes impossible. It’s not a luxury, and it’s easy to get. It is normal for more people to need the network constantly. In addition, it has become an important part of social interaction.
24. What can we infer from Paragraph 1?
A. Screens make everything in life cheaper.
B. People’s life is totally controlled by screens.
C. It is difficult for people to contact each other.
D. Face-to-face communication is decreasing nowadays.
25. According to the text, which of the following WON’T be caused by long screen time?
- 27 -
A. More social interaction. B. Depressive state of mind. C. Different brain structures. D. Poorer academic performance.
26. What is the author’s attitude towards the popularization of screen?
A. Favorable. B. Skeptical. C. Concerned. D. Opposed .
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. C
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了人与人之间的接触越来越少,人们对屏幕的需求逐渐增长。文章主要说明了长时间看屏幕会给人体造成的不良影响,以及作者认为屏幕正在填补一个重要的空白。对于普通人来说,逃离屏幕是不可能的。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中All of this has led to a curious new reality: Human contact is becoming a luxury good.可知所有这一切导致了一个奇怪的新现实:人际交往正在成为一种奢侈品。由此可推知,现在面对面的交流越来越少了。故选D。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中And children who spent more than two hours a day looking at a screen got lower scores on thinking and language tests, according to early results of a landmark study supported by the National Institutes of Health.可知美国国立卫生研究院(National Institutes of Health)支持的一项里程碑式研究的早期结果显示,每天看屏幕超过两小时的儿童在思维和语言测试中的得分较低。由此可知,长时间看屏幕会造成儿童成绩更差;以及第三段中Most disturbingly, the study is finding that the brains of children who spend much time on screens are different.可知最令人不安的是,研究发现长时间看屏幕的儿童的大脑是不同的。由此可知长时间看屏幕会造成不同的大脑结构;以及最后一句In adults, one study found an association between screen time and depression.可知在成年人中,一项研究发现了屏幕时间和抑郁之间的联系。由此可知长时间看屏幕会造成精神抑郁状态。只有A选项“更多的社会互动”文章没有提到,不属于长时间看屏幕而造成结果。故选A。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段For normal people, running away from the screen becomes impossible. It’s not a luxury, and it’s easy to get. It is normal for more people to need the network constantly. In addition, it has become an important part of social
- 27 -
interaction.可知对于普通人来说,逃离屏幕是不可能的。这不是奢侈品,而且很容易得到。更多的人经常需要网络是正常的。此外,它已经成为社会交往的重要组成部分。结合文章主要说明了人与人之间的接触越来越少,人们对屏幕的需求逐渐增长。文章主要说明了长时间看屏幕会给人体造成的不良影响,以及作者认为屏幕正在填补一个重要的空白。对于普通人来说,逃离屏幕是不可能的。由此可推知,作者对屏幕的普及问题持关心态度。故选C。
C
I always wanted to be extraordinary at something. Not just as in,”Great job, Jimbo!” No, I wanted to be best-in-class, awe-inspiring, tiptop; a world-famous genius,like Michael Phelps or Mark Zuckerberg.
Unfortunately, my version of reality did not quite line up with this delusional vision. I was a good swimmer, but I peaked at the collegiate State Championships level. My academic record was pretty solid, but I never would have made it into one of those ivy-league schools.
Though I rose to above-average status in a couple of areas, the disappointing truth was that I would never amount to anything more than a mid-sized fish in a small pond. God apparently had other plans.
What drove me crazy, though, was the superstar talent thrown in my face at every turn. Some folks just seemed to get an unfair intensive dose(剂量)of it. Why couldn’t I be like Bernie William, the famed New Yorkees player who also happens to be a world-class jazz guitar virtuoso(艺术大师)?
Some say greatness is simply a function of putting in the practice time. Around ten thousand hours, to be precise, according to author Malcolm Gladwell. I don’t question the theory of devoting extraordinary efforts to developing one’s expertise, but it seems that raw talent is equally important. You either have it or you don’t.
I’ve heard that as people approach middle age, their life satisfaction increases because they begin to accept the gap between the expectations for themselves and the reality. After a few decades of frustration without the desired results, we eventually come to terms with how our lives turned out, even if it falls far short of our idealized youthful expectation.
Hope bends, it seems.
- 27 -
27. What does the word “delusional” in Para2 most probably mean?
A. Imaginary B. Realistic C. Abstract D. Practical
28. In the passage, the writer thinks of himself as .
A. a world-famous genius B. a mid-sized fish in a small pond
C. a world-class virtuoso D. a student in an ivy-league school
29. According to the writer, what makes “greatness”?
A. Extraordinary efforts B. Ten thousand hours of practice C. Raw talent D. Talent and time
30. Which of the following might be the best title ?
A. Hope Bends B. Frustrating Decades
C. Practice Works D. Youthful Expectation
【答案】27. A 28. B 29. D 30. A
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过自身经验出发,自己年少时想成为最优秀的人,但是实际与期望有偏差,成功需要有天赋以及付出时间。到最后在经历了几十年的挫折却没有得到想要的结果之后,我们最终会接受我们的生活是怎样的,即使它远远达不到我们理想的年轻的期望。
【27题详解】
词义猜测题。根据上文Unfortunately, my version of reality did not quite line up with this可知不幸的是,作者对现实的看法与这种妄想不太一致。此处的妄想是指第一段中作者希望自己是个十分优秀的人,故此处delusional与reality意思相反,可知划线单词意思为“想象的”。故选A。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中Though I rose to above-average status in a couple of areas, the disappointing truth was that I would never amount to anything more than a mid-sized fish in a small pond. 可知虽然我在几个方面都达到了中等以上的水平,但令人失望的事实是,我只不过是小池塘里的一条中等大小的鱼。由此可知,在这篇文章中,作者认为自己是小池塘里的中等大小的鱼。故选B。
- 27 -
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中Some say greatness is simply a function of putting in the practice time.(有人说,伟大仅仅是投入练习时间的结果)以及后文I don’t question the theory of devoting extraordinary efforts to developing one’s expertise, but it seems that raw talent is equally important.(我并不怀疑为发展自己的专业技能而付出非凡努力的理论,但似乎天赋也同样重要)由此可知,作者认为,是天赋和时间造就了“伟大”。故选D。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段Hope bends, it seems.可知看上去希望屈服了。再结合本文作者通过自身经验出发,自己年少时想成为最优秀的人,但是实际与期望有偏差,成功需要有天赋以及付出时间。到最后在经历了几十年的挫折却没有得到想要的结果之后,我们最终会接受我们的生活是怎样的,即使它远远达不到我们理想的年轻的期望。故A选项“希望屈服了”符合文章标题。故选A。
【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一,可以大致分为
① 定义猜词,可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用refer to, be called或that's to say, such as等。
② 逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义,例如,similarly, the same as, but, however, while, on the other hand, since ,because等,所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。
③ 语法猜词,可以根据构词法,再结合上下文进行猜词。
④ 语境猜词,猜测词义离不开上下文的语境,通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析,同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。
⑤ 指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容,做题时要注意指代词的位置,以便于判断,然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词,核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致,最后比较所找部分与选项,确定意思最接近的选项。
如第一小题,根据上文Unfortunately, my version of reality did not quite line up with this可知不幸的是,作者对现实的看法与这种妄想不太一致。此处的妄想是指第一段中作者希望自己是个十分优秀的人,故此处delusional与reality意思相反,可知划线单词意思为“想象的”。故选A。

One of the biggest reasons friends lie is simply to avoid hurting your feelings. Some people don’t understand the difference between being gently honest with a friend and being so straightforward that they leave a verbal wound. They choose to avoid these two extremes in the form of a lie.
They feel embarrassed.

Avoid an argument with you.
Perhaps your friends know that if they tell you the truth, you’ll get angry with them. Make sure that if a friend tells you something unpleasant, you don’t overact._____34_____ If you do end up arguing, do it in a respectable way.
Exclude you.
Lying isn’t always a sign that friends are trying to protect you, however. ___35___ When you find out with certainty that your friend is lying to you, try and face it. If you feel your friend is lying because he or she doesn’t want to be around you, that’s your wake-up to move on.
A. Protect your feelings.
B. They want to be your closer friends.
C. But a friend who lies isn’t always trying to hurt you.
D. Consider what’s being said and why your friend is telling you this.

talk.
【答案】31. C 32. A 33. G 34. D 35. F
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章分析了朋友对你说谎的四种原因并给出了对应的处理办法。
【31题详解】
根据后文Why does this happen?可知为什么会这样?结合后文分析了朋友对你撒谎的原因是为了避免伤害你的感情,可知说谎的朋友并不总是试图伤害你。故C选项“但是一个说谎的朋友并不总是试图伤害你”符合上下文语境,故选C。
【32题详解】
根据本段第一句One of the biggest reasons friends lie is simply to avoid hurting your feelings.可知朋友说谎的最大原因之一就是为了避免伤害你的感情。由此可知,本段说明了朋友撒谎是为了保护你的感受。故A选项“保护你的感受”符合上下文语境,故选A。
【33题详解】
根据上文Avoid trying to badger your friends into telling you what’s wrong.可知不要纠缠你的朋友,让他们告诉你出了什么事。由此可知,朋友对你撒谎是因为自己正在经历艰难的时期,因此最好的做法是不要纠缠你的朋友,而是在他们准备好跟你谈心的时候,清楚地告诉他们你在他们身边陪伴他们。故G选项“相反,当他们准备好谈话时,你要清楚地表明你在他们身边”符合上下文语境,故选G。
【34题详解】
结合上文Perhaps your friends know that if they tell you the truth, you’ll get angry with them. Make sure that if a friend tells you something unpleasant, you don’t overact.可知也许你的朋友知道如果他们告诉你真相,你会生他们的气。确保如果朋友告诉你一些不愉快的事情,你不要反应过度。由此可知,当朋友对你撒谎可能是为了避免和你发生争执,你会生气,所以在朋友告诉你真相的时候,你应该冷静想想他们说了什么,以及为什么要跟你说这些。故D选项“想想他们说了什么,为什么你的朋友要告诉你这些”符合上下文语境,故选D。
【35题详解】
根据上文Lying isn’t always a sign that friends are trying to protect you, however.(然而,撒谎并不总是朋友试图保护你的信号)以及最后一句If you feel your friend is lying because he or she doesn’t want to be around you, that’s your wake-up to
- 27 -
move on.(如果你觉得你的朋友在说谎,因为他或她不想和你在一起,那是你继续前进的警钟)可知,有时候朋友们对你撒谎仅仅是因为他们不想跟你在一起,不想让你加入他们的计划。故F选项“有时候他们撒谎是因为他们不想让你加入他们的计划”符合上下文语境,故选F。

第 II 卷
第二节:语法填空(10 个小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分 15 分)
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容或括号内单词的正确形式。
It is widely accepted that optimistic attitudes promote health as well as happiness. The secret of a long life is ____56____ (universe) desired and has long been sought. Today we can reveal it: always look on the bright side. A huge research project___57___(lead) by scientists at the Boston University School of Medicine concludes that optimists live___58___ (long).
Lewina Lee, lead author of the study, said, “A lot of evidence___59___(suggest) that exceptional longevity( 长 寿 ) is widely accompanied by a longer span of good health and living___60___ disability. Therefore our findings raise an exciting possibility___61___ we may be able to promote health and happiness by___62___(develop) positive attitudes such as optimism.”
However, the study doesn’t suggest that we should aim for great pleasure. Sadness is___63___ important part of the human condition. Any normal person sometimes experience disappointment, ambitions and the___64___(lose) of loved ones. But for many people, these matters of human existence ___65___ (transform) into an abnormal state of despair. There is a vital place in public health for providing mental treatment in helping to correct these cognitive errors. It is not weakness to be defeated by setbacks. It is merely a mistake.
- 27 -
【答案】56. universally
57. led 58. longer
59. suggests
60. without
61. that 62. developing
63. an 64. loss
65. are transformed
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。人们普遍认为,乐观的态度既能促进健康,又能促进幸福。然而有实验证明乐观确实能够促进健康和幸福,从而带来长寿。
【56题详解】
考查副词。is desired(被渴望)是系表结构,这里应该填写universal的副词形式universally修饰desired,表示“普遍地”。故填universally。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知lead在句子做非谓语动词,且与逻辑主语research project构成被动关系,故用过去分词。故填led。
【58题详解】
考查比较级。上文中出现了sought(痛苦)所以这里的研究的结果应该是和痛苦的人比较起来,乐观的人活得更久,用比较级的形式。故填longer。
【59题详解】
考查动词时态。evidence作“证据”之意时为不可数名词,故谓语动词应使用第三人称单数形式。故填suggests。
【60题详解】
考查介词。and作为并列连接词,前后通常表示并列和顺承关系,所以此处应该填入与good health(良好健康)意思相近的without disability(无残疾)。故填without。
【61题详解】
考查连接词。句意:因此,我们的发现提出了一种令人兴奋的可能性,即我们可以通过培养乐观等积极态度来促进健康和幸福。本句为同位语从句修饰possibility,且从句中不缺少成分,故用that引导。故填that。
- 27 -
【62题详解】
考查非谓语动词。根据短语by doing sth表示“通过做……”。故填developing。
【63题详解】
考查冠词。part为可数名词,根据上文is可知应用单数形式,且important为元音音素开头的单词。故填an。
【64题详解】
考查名词。根据短语the loss of sth./sb.“失去……(的感受)”。故填loss。
【65题详解】
考查动词时态语态。本句中主语与谓语动词构成被动关系,且主语matters为复数,谓语动词用复数形式。故填are transformed。
【点睛】当分词做状语的时候,如果构成分词的动词与句子的主语构成主动关系,就使用现在分词做状语;当二者构成被动关系,使用过去分词做状语。如果分词的动作发生在谓语动词之前,就使用分词的完成式。如果分词与句子的主语没有关系,可以使用状语从句或者独立主格结构。
如第二小题,分析句子结构可知lead在句子做非谓语动词,且与逻辑主语research project构成被动关系,故用过去分词。故填led。

第二节:概要写作(满分 25 分)
67.阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇 60 词左右内容概要。
Perhaps you’ve heard the old saying “curiosity killed the cat.” It’s a phrase that's often used to warn people - especially children - not to ask too many questions.
- 27 -
Yet it’s widely agreed that curiosity actually makes learning more effective. In fact, research has shown that curiosity is just as important as intelligence in determining how well students do in school.
Curiosity can also lead us to make unexpected discoveries, bring excitement into our lives, and open up new possibilities. In science, basic curiosity-driven research can have unexpected important benefits. For example,one day in 1831, Michael Faraday was playing around with a coil and a magnet when he suddenly saw how he could produce an electrical current. At first, it wasn't clear what use this would have, but it actually made electricity available for use in technology, and so changed the world.
However, curiosity is currently under the biggest threat, coming from technology. On one level, this is because technology has become so advanced that many of us are unable to think too deeply about how exactly things work any more. While it may be possible for a curious teenager to take a toaster apart and get some sense of how it works, how much do you understand about what happens when you type a website address into a browser? Where does your grasp of technology end and the magic begin for you?
In addition to this, there’s the fact that we all now connect so deeply with technology, particularly with our phones. The more we stare at our screens, the less we talk to other people directly. All too often we accept the images of people that social media provides us with. Then we feel we know enough about a person not to need to engage further with them.
That means we end up inside our own little bubbles, no longer coming across new ideas. Perhaps the real key to developing curiosity in the 21st century, then, is to rely less on the tech tools of our age.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Curiosity, as is revealed in research, is vital to students’ good academic performance. It also activates many scientific discoveries of unexpected benefits.However, up-to-date technology is now killing curiosity, by hindering our
- 27 -
capability to further explore how things go on. Additionally, intimate exposure to technology, phones in particular, will mislead us into accepting people’s virtual images online rather than have a deep insight into them. Therefore, to encourage curiosity, don’t depend on technology excessively.
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇概要写作。
【详解】写作步骤
1)细读原文。首先要仔细阅读短文,掌握文章主旨。文章说明了研究表明,好奇心对学生的良好学习成绩至关重要。它也激发了许多意想不到的好处的科学发现。然而,最新的技术正在扼杀好奇心,阻碍我们进一步探索事物发展的能力。此外,亲密接触技术,特别是手机,将误导我们接受人们的网上虚拟图像,而不是深入了解他们。因此,要激发好奇心,不要过度依赖技术。
2)弄清结构,归纳段意。概要写作是写全文概要,不是写某一部分的概要,或者就某些问题写出要点。因此一定要弄清文章结构,归纳文章各段大意。
3)列出原文要点。分析原文的内容和结构,将内容分项扼要表述并注意在结构上的顺序。在此基础上选出与文章主题密切相关的部分。
4)在写作时要特别注意下面几点:
(1)概要应包括原文中的主要事实,略去不必要的细节。
(2)安排好篇幅的比例,概要应同原文保持协调,即用较多的文字写重要内容,用较少的文字写次要内容。
(3)注意要点之间的衔接,要用适当的关联词语贯通全文,切忌只简单地写出一些互不相干的句子,但也不要每两句之间都加关联词语,以免显得生硬。
(4)不排斥用原文的某些词句,但不要照搬原文的句子,如果不能完全用自己的话语表达,至少对原文句子做一些同义词替换,如果结构上也能有一些转换会更好。
(5)计算词数,看是否符合规定的词数要求。
