To reveal links between the two galleries.‎ D. To give cost-saving tips on visits to Halifax.‎ ‎23.How much will a member pay least to visit the Yarmouth Gallery with his ‎45-yera-old wife and four adolescent children?‎ A.$5 B.$6 C.$15 D.$16‎ B Wildfires were rapidly spreading through northern and southern California as powerful winds swept through the state, burning homes and forcing more than ‎200,000 people to leave their homes. Thousands of structures were destroyed in the massive fires. Firefighters and volunteers worked around the clock, risking their lives to save others, although thick clouds of wildfire smoke hung in the air.‎ But it's not just humans in danger's path. A video of a horse running away from the rescue team to find his family of horses from CBS Los Angeles went viral. The public was touched by the horse's heroic act and shared their thoughts on the Internet.‎ Volunteers were rescuing several horses from the wildfire when one of horses jumped away from the group. They were trying to help the horse, but he refused. They probably had no idea what was wrong with the horse, who just started running away from them. The horse raced back into danger to lead his family to safety, despite rescuers’ best efforts to stop him. He knew he couldn’t leave them behind. As the tension increases, several human strangers jump in to help the animals, even going back to the burning barn where some of the horses remained.‎ You can watch the horse runs back into the smoke-filled area, reconnects with the horses inside the fence, and quickly accompanies them out of the fenced-off area. Though it's not clear from the video, CBS Los Angeles reported that all but one of the horses involved were saved. One female horse had to be euthanized (安乐死) on the scene. As disastrous as the California wildfires have been, this video and countless other rescue stories — human and animal alike — are shining light on all acts of goodness taking place.‎ ‎24.What does the first paragraph focus on? A. What causes the wildfires.‎ B. How serious the wildfires are.‎ C. What rescuers did to put out the wildfires.‎ D. How many people suffered from the wildfires.‎ ‎25.What does the underlined phrase “went viral” mean?‎ A. Turned bad. B Got attacked. C. Became interesting. D Grew popular.‎ ‎26.Which words can best describe the horse?‎ A. Brave and sympathetic. B. Loyal but stubborn.‎ C. Responsible and clever. D. Flexible but aggressive.‎ ‎27.What message does the writer want to convey?‎ A. Fighting disasters needs joint efforts. B. Animals show goodness to each other. C. All good deeds deserve to be praised. D. Animals are always friends of man.‎ C Cities in the American states of California, Washington and Massachusetts are considering bans or limits on the use of natural gas in homes and buildings because local officials and environmentalists point to evidence that gas leaking from pipes and other places hurts the climate more than carbon dioxide. The Environmental Protection Agency says buildings and homes produce about 12 percent of U.S.‎ greenhouse gas emissions( 排 放 ). Greenhouse gases are heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere. The bans, if approved, could affect heating systems in large buildings and even cooking stoves in homes.‎ Until recently, many environmentalists considered natural gas to be a "bridge fuel" to a future of renewable energy. U.S. utilities (公共事业) presently get about 35‎ percent of their electricity from natural gas. However, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) notes that utilities have increased their use of renewable fuels in the past 10 years, from 9 to 17 percent of all power.‎ If natural gas bans in buildings become widespread, they could hurt the business plans of some of the world's biggest energy companies. Companies like Exxon Mobil, Shell and BP are investing billions of dollars to produce and ship more natural gas. Big gas producers argue that gas improves the environment by replacing fuels, such as coal, that pollute more. Natural gas companies oppose bans. They have started an advertising campaign and supported research that says gas is a better cooking fuel and a low-cost energy option.‎ The American Petroleum Institute (API) represents the U.S. oil and gas industry. The API rejects arguments that natural gas is bad for the environment. API spokesman Reid Porter said that the industry is limiting methane emissions（甲烷）with improved technology. He pointed to data from the Environmental Protection Agency showing a decrease in recent years.‎ ‎28.Why do some US cities move to ban natural gas? A. They have found cleaner energy to replace it.‎ B. They consider it can speed up global warming. C. They believe gas leaks pose high risk to safety.‎ D. They think it increases carbon dioxide emissions.‎ ‎29.How does the author support environmentalists’ view in paragraph 2? A. Making classification. B. Conducting experiment.‎ C. Offering figures. D. Analyze effects and causes.‎ ‎30.Why do some big energy companies oppose the ban? A. Their profits will suffer greatly.‎ B. Their technology in new energy is lack.‎ C. Their cost of producing new energy is high.‎ D. Their products will lose competitive advantage.‎ ‎31.What’s the passage mainly about?‎ A. Bans on the use of natural gas in the US. B. Arguments over limiting natural gas use.‎ C Environmentalists’ concern on natural gas.‎ D. The future energy alternatives to natural gas.‎ D Since the earliest days of the United States, Americans began their days by eating whatever was most easily available. These foods often included bread and eggs. Today, ease is still an important factor when it comes to breakfast. However, what people eat has changed over time.‎ ‎"Advertising was practically invented to sell cereal( 谷类 食物 )," says Heather Arndt Anderson, the writer of the book "Breakfast: A History." Arndt Anderson adds, "One of the first ways advertising was successfully or effectively used was to convince mothers that it was okay for their children to eat these instant cereals. It sort of offered working mothers a chance to let kids take care of themselves in the morning." As women entered the workforce to help support their families, cereal was a food kids could make on their own. "That's still sort of the power, really the lasting effect of breakfast as being the first meal that kids do learn how to prepare themselves," Arndt Anderson says.‎ As for orange juice, in 1916, farmers grew more oranges than usual, so advertisers began saying, "Drink an orange." They aimed to persuade people that drinking orange juice was a healthy way to start the day. Two years later, a worldwide flu spread caused people to drink more orange juice as a morning drink for its health benefits.‎ Americans still eat breakfast foods like bread and eggs that their ancestors did.‎ Writer Heather Arndt Anderson notes that people's concerns about healthy food choices have also stayed the same. She says the idea of clean eating and healthy eating has been around for hundreds of years. "The only thing that's changed has been the details with which we express what these things are — what clean eating is, and being healthy." Arndt Anderson adds that leftovers — food left over from the night before — taste good and are a great way to reduce waste.‎ ‎32.Why did cereal become the food of American breakfast? A It cost less. B. It tasted better.‎ C. It was more nutritious. D. It was easier to make.‎ ‎33.What played an important part in orange juice becoming a morning drink? A. Its High production. B. Its Easy availability.‎ C. Its effective marketing. D. Its medicinal application.‎ ‎34.What does Arndt Anderson’s words suggest in the last paragraph? A. Leftovers are suitable for breakfast food.‎ B. Stricter food safety standards should be set. C. Waste is a common phenomenon in America. D. The views about healthy food have changed.‎ ‎35.What’s the best title for the text? A. Changes in American Diets B. The History of American Breakfast C. The Effect of Advertisements on Food D. American Concerns about Health Breakfast 第二节(共 5 小题:每小题 2 分，满分 10 分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有 两项为多余选项。‎ E The continued appeal of online shopping Since the first thing, a CD, was sold online in 1994 for $12.48, growth in online sales has continued "year-on-year". 36 But why?‎ Maybe it's the convenience. Online shopping allows you to find what you need from the comfort of your own home. Then there's the variety. The discerning (有品位 的) shopper is able to select from a wide range of products from all over the world.‎ ‎37 Better yet, with more advanced search techniques available, consumers are now better able to specify exactly what they want, and in some cases, even adjust products to create tailored items.‎ ‎ 38 Our browsing history and previous purchases are run through calculation, which produce advertisements that more closely link consumers to the products companies believe we would like to buy. And since these products are not physically on show in a shop, the company saves money on regular costs like rent and electricity. This allows them offer their products at a more reasonable price.‎ Then there's the reassurance(保证). 39 There is often no shipping cost to buyers. They just print out the returns label, stick it to the packaging the item was sent in and get all your money back.‎ Many people still enjoy the experience of buying in a real shop. The dialogue and customer service received from staff and special events taking place in store can be big pulls. 40 ‎ A. But many physical stores need to close to save money. B. Purchasing in online shops offers a unique experience. C. Online shopping has become huge business nowadays.‎ D. Online companies are getting better at targeted advertising too. E. However, physical shops suffer from a more limited alternative.‎ F. These days, the majority of online sellers offer a safe, convenient returns policy.‎ G. However, online shopping will continue to be a major avenue to shopping for many customers.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分 45 分）‎ 第一节（共 20 小题;每小题 1.5 分，满分 30 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以 填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ Tim Ma's parents, who came to the United States from China in the 1970s, opened a restaurant, but it was a failure.

Then she asked Henry to get a couple bottle of drink and to get the picnic basket readily. Nancy and her husband arrived at towards noon. The two families went to a nearby park through which a small river ran. There were a table and two benches under the trees beside the river. The weather was cloudy and it didn’t rain. Everybody enjoyed the picnic and it was a very relaxed Sunday afternoon.‎ 第二节书面表达 (满分 25 分)‎ 假定你是李华，你的美国笔友 Tim 沉溺于电子游戏。请你给他发一封邮件，简述玩电子游 戏的利与弊。内容包括：‎ ‎1. 放松心情，缓解压力，锻炼思维；‎ ‎2. 浪费时间，影响学习，伤害健康。 注意：1.词数 100 左右；‎ ‎3. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。‎ Dear Tim,‎ Yours,‎ 参考答案+蚌埠二中+杜艳秋+英语 第二部分 阅读理解 A ‎21.D 考查细节理解。‎ 根据最后一段中的“our Yarmouth location”“our location in Halifax, the main complex of the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia”可知，新斯科舍省美术馆的主楼位于哈利法克斯，雅茅斯美术馆是新 斯科舍省美术馆的一个分馆。‎ ‎22.B 考查写作意图。‎ 根据最后一段的内容，尤其是“Save your receipt and receive 50% off admission at the Halifax Gallery. Ask the front desk for more details”可知，在购买雅茅斯分馆门票的七天内，凭借此 门票，可以享受哈利法克斯美术馆门票 5 折的的优惠。所以作者建议参观者要保存好门票收 据，以享受哈利法克斯美术馆门票 5 折的的优惠。由此可推知，作者在最后一段中鼓励游客 去参观哈利法克斯美术馆。‎ ‎23.C 考查细节理解。 根据文章中介绍票价的相关内容可知，这个家庭最佳的购票方式是选择购得一张家庭票 ‎12.50 美元，另一张按 Youth (age 6-17)购买是 2.5 美元，合计为 15 美元。 根据题干中的“four adolescent children”可知，这个家庭有四个处于青春期的孩子，他们应 该属于 Youth (age 6-17)类，所以部分考生想当然的认为这个家庭的购买方式应该是：一张按 Member 购买是免费的，一张按 Adult 购买是 6 美元，另外四张按 Youth (age 6-17)购买是 10 美元，一共是 16 美元，但这并不是这个家庭可选的支付最少的购票方式，故 D 项错误。‎ B ‎24.B 考查段落大意。 根据第一段的内容可知，加利福利亚的野外大火焚毁了房屋，迫使超过 20 万的居民被迫离 开家园，消防员和志愿者在滚滚黑烟中夜以继日地工作，即可知第一段强调了加利福利亚大 火的严重性。‎ ‎25.D 考查词义猜测。‎ 根据下文的“The public was touched by the horse's heroic act and shared their thoughts on the Internet”可知，记录了这匹马事迹的视频得到了广泛传播，公众被这匹马的英勇行为所感 动，并纷纷在网上分享自己的看法，所以画线词组的意思与 D 项最为接近。‎ ‎26.A 考查推理判断。‎ 根据文中第三、四段的描写，尤其是第三段中的“The horse raced back into danger to lead his family to safety, despite rescuers ’ best efforts to stop him. He knew he couldn ’t leave them behind”可知，这匹马不顾自我安危，勇返火场，救助自己的同伴，故可推知这匹马既勇敢 又富有同情心。‎ ‎27.C 考查推理判断。‎ 根据最后一段中的“As disastrous as the California wildfires have been, this video and countless other rescue stories — human and animal alike — are shining light on all acts of goodness taking place”可知，作者认为尽管加州的森林大火造成了灾难性的后果，但这段视频和无数 其他的救援故事——无论是人类还是动物——都让我们看到了正在发生的所有善举，由此可 推知作者是想要告诉大家所有善举都应该得到弘扬。‎ C ‎28.B 考查细节理解。‎ 根据第一段中的“gas leaking from pipes and other places hurts the climate more than carbon dioxide. The Environmental Protection Agency says buildings and homes produce about 12 percent of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. Greenhouse gases are heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere”可知，从管道和其它地方泄露的天然气对气候的伤害比二氧化碳还大，同时美 国环境保护局表示，建筑物和住宅产生了美国大约 12%的温室气体排放，故可知美国一些城 市限制使用天然气，是因为他们认为天然气会加速全球变暖。‎ ‎29.C 考查写作手法。 文章第二段给出了一些环保专家对天然气的一种观点，即天然气是一种“过渡性”能源，它 是取代传统能源而又逐渐被新能源取代的能源，为证明这一观点文中给出了两组数据以说明 这一过程正在进行。‎ ‎30.A 考查细节理解。‎ 根 据 第 四 段 中 的 “ If natural gas bans in buildings become widespread, they could hurt the business plans of some of the world's biggest energy companies. Companies like Exxon Mobil,‎ Shell and BP are investing billions of dollars to produce and ship more natural gas”可知，如果建 筑物内的天然气禁令推广开来，可能会对一些全球最大能源公司的商业计划造成伤害，一些 大的能源公司正投资数十亿美元生产和运输更多天然气，即损害这些公司的利益。‎ ‎31.B 考查主旨大意。 通读全文可以看出，文章主要介绍了就美国的一些城市准备对天然气的使用加以限制或禁止 这一情况而展开的讨论。‎ D ‎32.D 考查推理判断。 根据第一段的内容可知，人们选择早餐食品的一个重要标准，即方便获取，且这一标准至今 未变；再结合第二段中的“As women entered the workforce to help support their families, cereal was a food kids could make on their own ”“That's still sort of the power, really the lasting effect of breakfast as being the first meal that kids do learn how to prepare themselves”可知，当女性 进入职场帮助养家糊口时，麦片粥是孩子们可以自己做的食物，麦片粥真正持久的影响是孩 子们学习到了如何自己为自己准备第一餐，故可推知麦片粥之所以成为美国人早餐的选择是 因为它很容易获取。‎ ‎33.C 考查细节理解。‎ 根据第三段中“advertisers began saying, ‘Drink an orange.’ They aimed to persuade people that drinking orange juice was a healthy way to start the day”可知，广告商为橙汁做的广告让 人们相信喝橙汁是一种健康开始新一天的方式，故高效营销在橙汁成为晨饮中发挥了重要作 用。‎ ‎34.A 考查细节理解。 文章最后一段说明人们对健康食品选择的担忧从没有改变，即人们一直都很关注食品的健康； 再结合最后一段中的“Arndt Anderson also says that leftovers — food left over from the night before — taste good and are a great way to reduce waste”可知，阿恩特·安德森认为剩饭也 是有营养的，并且是减少浪费的有效途径，即阿恩特·安德森认为剩饭也适合当作早餐。‎ ‎35.B 考查标题判断。 通读全文，尤其是第一段的内容可知，本文主要介绍了美国早餐饮食的演变历史，即从早期 的面包和鸡蛋，到后来的麦片粥和橙汁，美国人早餐食品的种类不断增加。故 B 项作本文标 题最佳。‎ E ‎。‎ ‎36.C 考查承上启下句。文章第一段的第一句说明网上购物每年都在增长这一事实，最后一 句提出 But why?这一问题，显然是问“网上购物增长”的原因，那么中间这一句也是用来说 明“增长”这件事。故 C 项“目前网上购物已成为一项巨大的产业”符合语境。‎ ‎37.E 考查细节支撑句。文章第二段介绍了网上购物的好处，其中第二点好处就是为顾客提 供了更多的选择性，E 选项与之相对应，用“对比比较”的方法佐证了网上购物的这一优势。‎ ‎38.D 考查段落主旨句。该空是本段的主题句，通读全段可以看出，本段主要讲网上销售可 以使商品广告更具针对性。‎ ‎39.F 考查细节支撑句。第四段第一句给出了网上购物的又一优点，即提供退货保证。那么 第二句就是进一步加以解释说明，所以 F 项符合语境。‎ ‎40.G 考查细节支撑句。本文的写作目的是介绍网上购物的优点，使用的写作方式之一就是 对比比较。所以最后一段开始介绍了实体店购物的好处，后面理应回归文章的主题，所以 G 符合写作的主题和文体的要求。‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用 ‎41.C 根据下文中的“They wanted financial security for their child.
