‎【高考考纲】‎ 体裁多样，题材广泛。体裁以应用文、说明文、记叙文为主；题材以社会文化、人物故事、应用广告为主。细节理解和推理判断题为主；主旨大意和词义猜测题为辅。‎ ‎【真题感悟】 ‎ 例1、(2018·全国Ⅱ，A)‎ Summer Activities Students should read the list with their parents/carers，and select two activities they would like to do.Forms will be available in school and online for them to indicate their choices and return to school.Before choices are finalised，parents/carers will be asked to sign to confirm their child’s choices.‎ Activity Description Member ‎ of staff Cost Outdoor Adventure ‎(OUT)‎ Take yourself out of your comfort zone for a week，discover new personal qualities，and learn new skills.You will be able to take part in a number of activities from canoeing to wild camping on Dartmoor.Learn rock climbing and work as a team，and enjoy the great outdoor environment.‎ Mr.‎ Clemens ‎￡140‎ WWⅠ Battlefields and Paris ‎(WBP)‎ On Monday we travel to London.After staying overnight in London，we travel on Day 2 to northern France to visit the World War Ⅰ battlefields.On Day 3 we cross into Belgium.Thursday sees us make the short journey to Paris where we will visit Disneyland Paris park，staying until late to see the parade and the fireworks.Our final day，Friday，sees us visit central Paris and tour the main sights.‎ Mrs.‎ Wilson ‎￡425‎ Crafty Foxes Four days of product design centred around textiles.Making lovely objects using recycled and made Mrs.‎ Goode ‎￡30‎ ‎(CRF)‎ ‎ materials.Bags，cushions and decorations...Learn skills and leave with modern and unusual textiles.‎ Potty about Potter ‎(POT)‎ Visit Warner Bros Studio，shop stop to buy picnic，stay overnight in an approved Youth Hostel in Streatley－on－Thames，guided tour of Oxford to see the film locations，picnic lunch outside Oxford’s Christchurch，boating on the River Cherwell through the University Parks，before heading back to Exeter.‎ Miss ‎ Drake ‎￡150‎ 文章大意：本文是一篇应用文。这四则广告分别介绍了四项适合学生的夏季活动安排。‎ ‎（1）　Which activity will you choose if you want to go camping？ __ __ ‎ A．OUT. B．WBP.‎ C．CRF. D．POT.‎ 答案：A ‎（2）What will the students do on Tuesday with Mrs.Wilson？ ____ ‎ A．Travel to London. B．See a parade and fireworks.‎ C．Tour central Paris. D．Visit the WWⅠ battlefields.‎ 答案：D 解析：细节理解题。根据题干中的Mrs.Wilson可以定位到第二则广告。由该广告中的“On Monday we travel to London.After staying overnight in London，we travel on Day 2 to northern France to visit the World WarⅠbattlefields.”可知，星期一参观者到达伦敦，第二天即星期二到法国北部参观第一次世界大战的战场，这与D项内容吻合。 ‎ ‎（4）What is the main purpose of the passage？ __C__ ‎ A．To explain a study method on worms.‎ B．To introduce the diet of a special worm.‎ C．To present a way to break down plastics.‎ D．To propose new means to keep eco－balance.‎ 解析：推理判断题。作者通过本文介绍了一项消除塑料垃圾的研究，显然是为人们提供了一条清除塑料垃圾的新途径。选项C与此意吻合。‎ 例3、(2018·北京，A)‎ My First Marathon(马拉松)‎ A month before my first marathon，one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks，leaving me only two weeks to train.Yet，I was determined to go ahead.‎ I remember back to my 7th year in school.In my first P．E.class，the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball.I didn’t do either well.He later informed me that I was “not athletic”.‎ The idea that I was “not athletic” stuck with me for years.When I started running in my 30s，I realized running was a battle against myself，not about competition or whether or not I was athletic.It was all about the battle against my own body and mind.A test of wills！‎ The night before my marathon，I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line.I woke up sweating and nervous，but ready to prove something to myself.‎ Shortly after crossing the start line，my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied.So I stopped to readjust.Not the start I wanted！‎ At mile 3，I passed a sign： “GO FOR IT，RUNNERS！”‎ By mile 17，I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly.Despite the pain，I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.‎ By mile 21，I was starving！‎ As I approached mile 23，I could see my wife waving a sign.She is my biggest fan.She never minded the alarm clock sounding at ‎4 a．m.or questioned my expenses on running.‎ I was one of the final runners to finish.But I finished！And I got a medal.In fact，I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.‎ Determined to be myself，move forward，free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签)，I can now call myself a “marathon winner”.‎ 文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者不畏艰难，挑战自我，坚持跑完马拉松，实现了一次从自我砥砺到自我认知的人生“长跑”的励志故事。素材的选择旨在向考生传递积极的价值观：只要勇于挑战，拼搏进取，人人皆为胜者。‎ ‎（1）　A month before the marathon，the author __C__ .‎ A．was well trained B．felt scared C．made up his mind to run D．lost hope 解析：细节理解题。由第一段第二句“Yet，I was determined to go ahead.”并结合上句最后的leaving me only two weeks to train可知，虽然作者在马拉松前一个月脚踝受伤需休息两个周，但他决心在仅剩的两周训练时间里继续前行，去参加马拉松长跑。此处的关键信息determined与选项C中的made up his mind相吻合。‎ ‎（2）Why did the author mention the P．E.class in his 7th year？ __C__ ‎ A．To acknowledge the support of his teacher.‎ B．To amuse the readers with a funny story.‎ C．To show he was not talented in sports.‎ D．To share a precious memory.‎ 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段最后两句“I didn’t do either well.He later informed me that I was ’not athletic’.”可知，作者列举小时候第一次上体育课的例子，说明自己跑圈不行，打垒球也不行，所以老师告诉作者他不擅长体育运动。这显然表明了作者在运动方面没有天赋，与选项C的意思匹配。‎ ‎（3）How was the author’s first marathon？ __A__ ‎ A．He made it. B．He quit halfway.‎ C．He got the first prize. D．He walked to the end.‎ 解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“I was one of the final runners to finish.But I finished！”可知，作者跑完了这次马拉松。这与选项A中的made it(做成)意思吻合。‎ ‎（4）What does the story mainly tell us？ __B__ ‎ A．A man owes his success to his family support.‎ B．A winner is one with a great effort of will.‎ C．Failure is the mother of success.‎ D．One is never too old to learn.‎ ‎【名师点睛】‎ 主旨大意题是阅读理解中考生失分最多的题目，因为该类试题不仅考查考生略读文章、领会大意的能力，也对考生的归纳、概括能力提出了较高的要求，文章中没有明显的解题依据，需要考生从文章中提炼、抽取一些关键词、主干句进行加工概括，才能归纳出文章的主旨。此类题目可分为三大类，即标题归纳题、文章大意题和段落大意题。‎ 做题时需要注意：‎ ‎1．明晰两类常见设问方式：‎ ‎(1)标题类常见的标题型题干：①The best title/headline for this passage might be ________ .②What is the best title for the passage？③Which of the following would be suitable as a title for the passage？‎ ‎(2)大意类常见的主题型题干：①This passage chiefly deals with ________ .②What’s the topic of the article？③What’s the main idea of the ...paragraph/the passage？‎ ‎2．判断三种正确选项特征：‎ ‎(1)涵盖性强：覆盖全文或全段的中心思想。‎ ‎(2)确定的范围恰当：既不太大，也不太小。‎ ‎(3)精确性强：不会改变文章语言表意的程度及色彩。‎ ‎3．识别四类干扰选项特点：‎ ‎(1)以偏概全：答案只阐述了局部信息或主旨的一部分。‎ ‎(2)主题过大：归纳概括过于宽泛，超出了文章要讨论的范围。‎ ‎(3)断章取义：以次要的事实、细节替代全文的主要观点。‎ ‎(4)无中生有：与文章内容毫不相关或与文章内容相悖。‎ ‎【方法技巧】文章主旨大意题→寻找主题句，归纳概括 关键词：☆分析文章结构，判断文章体裁　☆识别段落主题句，归纳总结　☆注意转折、疑问、重复等关键信息 文章的主旨是通过段落来表达的，而段落的大意主要由主题句来体现，所以，段落的主题句就是文章主旨的组成部分。因此，识别各段落的主题句并由此归纳出文章的主旨是解题的关键。‎ 不同体裁的文章，其主题句出现的位置不同。议论文往往在第一段提出观点，中间是论据部分，最后一段得出结论，因此主题句往往在首段或者末段；说明文的主题句往往在首段；新闻报道主题句往往在首段的首句；记叙文一般没有明显的主题句，需要根据文中叙述的内容和线索来概括文章大意，如果结尾部分是说理性的句子，那这个句子很有可能就是主题句。‎ 寻找主题句时，要注意以下小技巧：①转折词语后面的部分，有可能是主题句；②段首出现疑问时，回答部分可能是主题句；③作者有意识重复强调的观点，往往是主旨；反复出现的词语，往往是体现主旨的关键词；④表示总结或者结论的句子常包含therefore，in short，conclude，thus等。‎ ‎【变式探究】 (2018·江苏，B)‎ In the 1760s，Mathurin Roze opened a series of shops that boasted (享有) a special meat soup called consommé.Although the main attraction was the soup，Roze’s chain shops also set a new standard for dining out，which helped to establish Roze as the inventor of the modern restaurant.‎ Today，scholars have generated large amounts of instructive research about restaurants.Take visual hints that influence what we eat：diners served themselves about 20 percent more pasta (意大利面食) when their plates matched their food.When a dark－colored cake was served on a black plate rather than a white one，customers recognized it as sweeter and more tasty.‎ Lighting matters，too.When Berlin restaurant customers ate in darkness，they couldn’t tell how much they’d had：those given extra－large shares ate more than everyone else，but were none_the_wiser—they didn’t feel fuller，and they were just as ready for dessert.‎ Time is money，but that principle means different things for different types of restaurants.Unlike fast－food places，fine dining shops prefer customers to stay longer and spend.One way to encourage customers to stay and order that extra round：put on some Mozart (莫扎特).When classical，rather than pop，music was playing，diners spent more.Fast music hurried diners out.Particular scents also have an effect：diners who got the scent of lavender (薰衣草) stayed longer and spent more than those who smelled lemon，or no scent.‎ Meanwhile，things that you might expect to discourage spending—“bad” tables，crowding，high prices—don’t necessarily.Diners at bad tables—next to the kitchen door，say—spent nearly as much as others but soon fled.It can be concluded that restaurant keepers need not “be overly concerned about ’bad’ tables，” given that they’re profitable.As for crowds，a Hong Kong study found that they increased a restaurant’s reputation，suggesting great food at fair prices.And doubling a buffet’s price led customers to say that its pizza was 11 percent tastier.‎ 文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。它主要通过引入现代餐馆的鼻祖马蒂兰·罗兹制订的标准以及学者对于餐馆的研究来介绍现代餐馆在经营中影响食客消费的几个要素：视觉要素(餐具、灯光)、听觉要素(音乐)、嗅觉要素(气味)、其他要素(桌位、拥挤程度和价格)。素材旨在通过现代餐馆的经营理念，让考生了解西方现代餐馆的经营之道。‎ ‎（5）The underlined phrase “none the wiser” in paragraph 3 most probably implies that the customers were __A__ .‎ A．not aware of eating more than usual B．not willing to share food with others C．not conscious of the food quality D．not fond of the food provided 解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“...those given extra－large shares ate more than everyone else，but were none the wiser—they didn’t feel fuller...”可知，那些被给以大份饭菜的食客比其他人吃得多，但他们没觉得更饱，这说明在黑暗的就餐环境下，食客并不清楚自己多吃了多少，所以此处的none the wiser是“不清楚，不知道”之意。故选A项。‎ ‎（6）How could a fine dining shop make more profit？ __A__ ‎ A．Playing classical music. B．Introducing lemon scent.‎ C．Making the light brighter. D．Using plates of larger size.‎ 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“When classical，rather than pop，music was playing，diners spent more.”可知，当演奏古典音乐而不是流行音乐的时候，食客们会花更多的钱。spent more就是对题干中make more profit的语意转化。故选A项。‎ ‎（7）What does the last paragraph talk about？ __D__ ‎ A．Tips to attract more customers.‎ B．Problems restaurants are faced with.‎ C．Ways to improve restaurants’ reputation.‎ D．Common misunderstandings about restaurants.‎ 例4、(2018·全国Ⅱ，B)‎ Many of us love July because it’s the month when nature’s berries and stone fruits are in abundance.These colourful and sweet jewels from British Columbia’s fields are little powerhouses ‎ of nutritional protection.‎ Of the common berries，strawberries are highest in vitamin C，although，because of their seeds，raspberries contain a little more protein(蛋白质)，iron and zinc(not that fruits have much protein).Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants(抗氧化物质).The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants.As for cherries(樱桃)，they are so delicious who cares？However，they are rich in vitamin C．‎ When combined with berries or slices of other fruits，frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick，cooling fruit shakes and low fat “ice cream”.For this purpose，select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter.Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze.If you like，a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown.Frozen bananas will last several weeks，depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer.‎ If you have a_juicer，you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit.Out comes a “soft－serve” creamy dessert，to be eaten right away.This makes a fun activity for a children’s party；they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below.‎ 文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了七月给我们带来的多种浆果和核果，并告诉我们它们富含的营养和可以制成的美食。‎ ‎（1）　What does the author seem to like about cherries？ __C__ ‎ A．They contain protein. B．They are high in vitamin A．‎ C．They have a pleasant taste. D．They are rich in antioxidants.‎ 解析：细节理解题。由第二段中的“As for cherries，they are so delicious who cares？[至于樱桃，它们味道甜美，(至于其他方面)谁会在乎呢？]”可知，C项陈述与之吻合。‎ ‎（2）Why is fresh lemon juice used in freezing bananas？ __B__ ‎ A．To make them smell better. B．To keep their colour.‎ C．To speed up their ripening. D．To improve their nutrition.‎ 解析：细节理解题。根据题干中的fresh lemon juice可以定位到第三段最后部分。由“If you like，a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown.”可知，往香蕉上挤一些新鲜的柠檬汁能保护香蕉在冷冻的时候不变色，故选B项。‎ ‎（3）What is “a juicer” in the last paragraph？ __D__ ‎ A．A dessert. B．A drink.‎ C．A container. D．A machine.‎ 解析：词义猜测题。最后一段中画线词处的语境提到“喂食”(feed in)，“吐出”(out comes)，“放进机器的顶部” (into the top of the machine)，从这些信息词判断画线词指的是一种机器，因此选D。‎ ‎（4）From which is the text probably taken？ __B__ ‎ A．A biology textbook. B．A health magazine.‎ C．A research paper. D．A travel brochure.‎ 解析：推理判断题。本题考查文章的出处。从全文内容看，第一段提到丰收的七月带来的果实，说这些水果好比储存营养的小“动力室”；第二段提到山莓等各种水果含有的维生素等营养成分；第三、四段提到利用这些水果制作各种美食。因此本文应该摘选自健康类的杂志。故选B项。‎ ‎【名师点睛】‎ 词句猜测题主要考查根据阅读材料提供的信息，结合所应有的常识和经验，正确判断生词、词组的合义和熟词在特定语境中表达的具体含义以及某一句子的意思。做题时需要注意：‎ ‎1．明晰三类常见设问方式：‎ ‎(1)词意义：①The underlined word/phrase...probably means/can be replaced by ________ .②Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined world/phrase...？‎ ‎(2)指代类：①What does the underlined word “this/that/it/they...” refer to？②The underlined part “this/that/it/they...” refers to ________ .‎ ‎(3)句意类：①The underlined sentence in the ...paragraph probably means ________ .②What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph...？‎ ‎2．判断三种正确选项特征：‎ ‎(1)合义和其字面意思没有任何的关系。‎ ‎(2)上下文逻辑通顺。‎ ‎(3)与原句意思最接近。‎ ‎3．识别三类干扰选项特点：‎ ‎(1)与所考词汇形似。‎ ‎(2)如果考的是熟词，含有常规词义的往往是错误选项。‎ ‎(3)句子解释中含有过多原句中已有的词和短语的选项一般是错误选项。‎ ‎【方法技巧】‎ ‎1．语境分析猜词义 文章中的任何单词和句子在内容上都不是孤立的，都与其所在的句子、段落及整篇文章有关。因此，应该利用上下文提供的情景和线索，进行符合逻辑的分析，并依此来猜测词义或者句意。‎ ‎(1)同义或定义解释法。上下文中以某种方式对其进行解释，如利用or，that is (to say)，in other words，namely等词语进行解释，或利用破折号、同位语(从句)、定语从句等进行解释。‎ ‎(2)因果推断法。对生词词义的猜测需要结合上下文的因果关系进行。‎ ‎(3)前后对比法。上下文中往往对生词提供一定的对比背景，并且通常以反义或对照的方式出现，以此可推测生词意思。‎ ‎(4)语境理解法。生词词义的推测大多根据语境进行，做题时要根据上下文语境信息进行分析、推理，从而猜测出生词的意义。‎ ‎(5)基本构词法。根据前缀、后缀，合成及词性转换猜测词义。‎ ‎2．就近原则判指代 代词指代判断三法 此类题目要求考生根据语境判断代词(this，that，it，they，them，one，which等)或助动词(do，does，did等)究竟指代什么。具体方法：‎ ‎(1)返回原文，找出指代词(it，they，them，this...)。‎ ‎(2)向上(有时向下)搜索，找最近的名词、代词、短语或句子(就近原则)。‎ ‎(3)将找到的词、词组或句子代入替换该指代词，看其意思、逻辑关系是否通顺，并最终确定最佳答案。‎ ‎3．意义吻合定句意 句意猜测两注意 句意猜测题要求考生通过阅读文章。用合适的语句对其进行解释性的描述。‎ ‎(1)返回原文，找到该句，对原句进行语法和逻辑关系的准确分析。对于需要推理的句意理解，首先要理解句子前后的语境，其次对此句在文章中的意思进行合理的推断，最后再归纳总结。‎ ‎(2)‎ 一般来说，正确选项的意思与原句的意思完全相同，只是用其他的英语词汇和句式来表达相同的意思。‎ ‎【变式探究】Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks.His strange habit makes sense when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter，including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road.What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bag.‎ Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year.So many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing number of cities do not allow them at checkouts(收银台).The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California，including Los Angeles.Eyeing these_headwinds，plastic －bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.‎ Among the bag makers’ arguments：many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags，which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport.And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at，they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today.‎ The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement：reusable shopping bags.The stronger a reusable bag is，the longer its life and the more plastic－bag use it cancels out.However，longer－lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make.One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.‎ Environmentalists don’t dispute(质疑)these points.They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.‎ 文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。主题是“人与自然”，人与自然如何和谐相处？一个小小塑料购物袋的使用就体现了人与自然的相处之道。塑料购物袋产生“白色垃圾”，在美国加利福尼亚州约有90个城市禁止使用塑料购物袋；塑料购物袋制造商想出了对策——用可以重复利用的购物袋，虽然这种购物袋的制作和运输成本高；环保专家认为塑料袋和纸袋都不要用。‎ ‎（5）What has Steven Stein been hired to do？ __D__ ‎ A．Help increase grocery sales. B．Recycle the waste material.‎ C．Stop things falling off trucks. D．Argue for the use of plastic bags.‎ 解析：细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句“...are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.”‎ 可知，塑料购物袋制造商雇用像Stein这样的科学家来说明他们的产品并不像大多数人认为的那样对地球有那么大的坏处，所以D项“据理支持使用塑料袋”正确。 ‎ Here are some best sellers of 2018 at Amazon.‎ The car Fourteen-year-old Terry’s parents never pay him much attention.So when they both disappear after one of their all-too-frequent arguments，Terry isn’t exactly eager for them to come home.On his own，he fixes an abandoned car.Though he doesn’t know much about driving，he gets behind the wheel and heads west，with the intention of visiting an uncle in Oregon.It’s an exciting and sometimes dangerous journey.Along the way，he learns a lot about people，about America——and most importantly，about himself.‎ The Running Dream Jessica thinks her life is over when she loses a leg in a car accident.‎ As she struggles to cope with her prosthesis(义肢)and many other difficulties，Jessica develops a close relationship with Rosa，a girl who has a cancer and sees right into Jessica’s heart.‎ With the support of family，friends，a coach，and her teammates，Jessica is able to run again.But that’s not enough for her now.She doesn’t just want to cross finish lines herself—she wants to take Rosa with her.‎ Have a New Teenager by Friday Do you know this person?‎ His bedroom looks like a garbage dump.‎ She changes clothes three times before breakfast.‎ It seems that he／she never agrees with you.‎ Congratulations! You have a teenager in your home.But you needn’t feel helpless.In fact，you’re just five days away from your teenager asking.“What can I do to help?”Internationally recognized family expert Dr.Kevin Leman will help you get real results—really fast.‎ Boy Robot Seventeen-year-old Isaak discovers the truth about his origin:a government—made human.But a deadly military force is trying to kill him.He and the other Robots can only find protection from the Underground—a secret network of Robots and humans working together to ‎ ensure a coexistent future.Isaak must decide whether to hold on to his humanity and face possible death or to embrace his true nature in order to survive.‎ If you are interested in any of the books，click here for further information:‎ https:／／www.amazon.com/.‎ ‎13．Which book is a science fiction?‎ A．The Car. B．The Running Dream.‎ C．Have a New Teenager by Friday. D．Boy Robot.‎ ‎14．Which of the following isn’t conveyed in The Running Dream?‎ A．Friendship. B．Modesty. C．Bravery. D．Determination.‎ ‎15．Who is the book Have a New Teenager by Friday in tended for?‎ A．Experts. B．Teenagers. C．Parents. D．Teachers.‎ ‎【答案】‎ ‎13．D ‎14．B ‎15．C ‎【解析】本文属于应用文中的广告类短文，主要介绍了2018年Amazon上四本畅销书的主要内容。‎ ‎13．推理判断题。根据文章最后一部分前三句“Seventeen-year-old Isaak discovers the truth about his origin: a government—made human. But a deadly military force is trying to kill him. He and the other Robots can only find protection from the Underground—a secret network of Robots and humans working together to ensure a coexistent future.”可知本书主要讲述的是机器人Isaak和人类共同努力为有一个同时共存的未来而斗争的故事。属于科幻小说，故D项正确。‎ ‎14．细节理解题。根据文章第二部分第二段“As she struggles to cope with her prosthesis(义肢)and many other difficulties，Jessica develops a close relationship with Rosa，a girl who has a cancer and sees right into Jessica’s heart.”可知在事故里Jessica失去了一条腿，但她并没有丧失对生活的信心，而是勇敢地面对挫折，努力克服困难；并且和Rosa成为了好朋友。体现出了友谊、勇敢和决心，此部分并没有涉及到谦虚。故B项正确。‎ ‎15．推理判断题。根据文章第三部分倒数2、3句“You have a teenager in your home. But you needn’t feel helpless. In fact，you’re just five days away from your teenager asking. “What ‎ can I do to help?””句中的You指家里有孩子的父母亲，所以“Have a New Teenager by Friday”此书是写给父母亲的。故C项正确。‎ More than 40 percent of the species that help with pollination (植物传粉) are under threat due to the polluted environment. So some researchers have been searching for ways to protect the bees and other crucial pollinators while some engineers have thought perhaps an army of robotic pollinators could keep humans well-supplied in these foods. A team of researchers has recently designed a small drone capable of pollinating flowers. They tested their device on the large, pink flowers of lilies. And it worked.‎ Exciting as this success was, it is only the first step. The team has yet to figure out how to apply the concept on the massive scale. Could a fleet of robo-pollinators replace the bees?‎ ‎“Although the answer isn’t a straightforward no, it would be a challenging leap to go from this one little drone pollinating one large flower to an army of drones spreading across fields of crops,” says Scott Swinton, an agricultural economist at Michigan State University.‎ ‎“The successful pollination was fascinating,” Scott Swinton says, “but the device itself might damage the flowers. I wonder how you make sure you’re not doing more harm than good to flowers when you have a drone.”‎ ‎“Furthermore,” he points out, “a lily is a particularly easy flower for a drone to pollinate. To make this more broadly applicable for smaller and more complex flower structures, the drones would need to be particularly agile.”‎ Still, Joshua Campbell, an expert at the University of Florida, says “Pollination systems are extremely complex and will always require insects. There is no substitute for bees.”‎ ‎“As for the technology itself, it is a promising new development in existing drone technology,” he added. Yet he still sees some hurdles ahead before drones can be applied on a large scale.‎ ‎16．What makes those scientists invent pollinating drones?‎ A．There are no satisfying pollinators.‎ B．Humans need more food supplies.‎ C．Pollinating species are being endangered.‎ D．Drone technology is well-developed now.‎ ‎17．What problem does Scott think scientists have to solve for the robo-pollinators?‎ A．Making them look like bees. B．Using them in quantity.‎ C．Keeping them flying non-stop. D．Instructing them to tell plants.‎ ‎18．The underlined word “agile” in Para 6 can be replaced by “________”.‎ A．cheap B．catchy C．lovely D．smart ‎19．What’s the best title for the passage?‎ A．Will pollinating drones take over for honeybees?‎ B．What is leading pollinating honeybees to decline?‎ C．Why does pollinating need a money-saving option?‎ D．How did researchers invent pollinating drones?‎ ‎【答案】‎ ‎16．C ‎17．B ‎18．D ‎19．A ‎【解析】本文是一篇科普文章。“传粉物种正濒临灭绝”让这些科学家发明了授粉无人机。那么，“授粉的雄蜂会取代蜜蜂吗?”‎ ‎17．推理判断题。根据第二段中The team has yet to figure out how to apply the concept on the massive scale. Could a fleet of robo-pollinators replace the bees?可知，Scott认为科学家必须为机器人授粉者解决“大量使用它们”。故选B。‎ ‎18．词义猜测题。根据第五段中To make this more broadly applicable for smaller and more complex flower structures, the drones would need to be particularly agile. 为了更广泛地应用于更小、更复杂的花朵结构，无人机需要特别灵活。由此推知划线词的意思是“敏捷的”。故选D。‎ ‎19．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“As for the technology itself, it is a promising new development in existing drone technology,” he added. Yet he still sees some hurdles ahead before drones can be applied on a large scale.由此可知本文的主题是“授粉的雄蜂会取代蜜蜂吗?”故选A。‎ Across Europe, where visitors can outnumber residents in the summer months, the complaints have started. Last week, in Barcelona, an open-top bus was spray-painted across its windscreen with the words “Tourism Kills Neighbourhoods”. The message is clear: such cities are under pressure. In tourists and residents’ battle for shared spaces, local authorities are uncomfortably in the middle. The tourism is one of the largest employers in the world, with one new job created for every 30 new visitors to a destination—but at what cost to locals’ quality of life?‎ More people are travelling than ever before, and lower barriers to entry and falling costs mean they are doing so for shorter periods. The rise of “city breaks”—48-hour bursts of foreign cultures—has increased tourist numbers. “Too many people do the same thing at the exact same time,” says Xavier Font, a professor at the University of Surrey, “For locals, the city no longer belongs to them.”‎ Compounding the problem is Airbnb, which has made tourists more casual in their approach to international travel, but added to residents’ headaches. Those permanent citizens who share their apartment blocks with Airbnb hosts have lost their patience, “No longer do we have to share the streets with tourists, we have to share our own buildings!” To ease the congestion around the main attractions, many cities are taking immediate action. Venice is proposing a new concept of “ detourism”: sustainable travel tips and alternative routes for exploring a different Venice. A greater variety of guidance for future visitors—ideas for what to do in off-peak seasons, for example, —can guide them from overcrowded landmarks. Repeat visitors have a better sense of the culture and it is much easier to integrate their behaviour with residents of the cities.‎ ‎“But the locals should learn to take tourists as a part of urban life. Tourists do not have to be considered passive players, but rather as visitors with rights and duties,” says Font, “Everyone has a part to play in promoting that change.”‎ ‎20．What problem do the local authorities often have in a tourist city?‎ A．The challenge creating more business for local people.‎ B．The conflict taking place among tourists from different countries.‎ C．The dilemma between tourism and living quality of the locals.‎ D．The competitions among the most popular attractions.‎ ‎21．Why do the local residents reject “city break” according to Paragraph Two?‎ A．Too many visitors have damaged the quality of life.‎ B．The locals fail to benefit from the city break economically.‎ C．The local authorities lack adequate operation guidance.‎ D．They are reluctant to share anything with coming tourists.‎ ‎22．What is Airbnb most probably?‎ A．A new travelling map with more street information.‎ B．A solution by Font to improve the local living quality.‎ C．A small town having the same complaints about tourism.‎ D．A website to help travellers find a homestay.‎ ‎23．Under the concept of Detourism, which of the following should be encouraged?‎ A．Developing a city break during on-seasons.‎ B．Shifting visitors from busy attractions.‎ C．Attracting more first-time visitors.‎ D．Taking tourism as a passive part of urban life.‎ ‎【答案】‎ ‎20．C ‎21．A ‎22．D ‎23．B ‎【解析】本文是一篇议论文。在整个欧洲，游客数量在夏季可能超过居民数量，投诉已经开始。在旅游城市，地方当局经常遇到“旅游业与当地人生活质量之间的矛盾。” 应鼓励“将游客从繁忙的景点转移。”‎ ‎20．推理判断题。根据第一段中The message is clear: such cities are under pressure. In tourists and residents’ battle for shared spaces, local authorities are uncomfortably in the middle.‎ 可知，在旅游城市，地方当局经常遇到“旅游业与当地人生活质量之间的矛盾。”故选C。‎ ‎21．推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“For locals, the city no longer belongs to them.”可知，根据第二段，“太多的游客破坏了生活质量。”所以当地居民拒绝“city break”。故选A。‎ ‎22．推理判断题。根据第三段第一句Compounding the problem is Airbnb, which has made tourists more casual in their approach to international travel, but added to residents’ headaches.可知，Airbnb最可能是“一个帮助旅行者找到寄宿家庭的网站。”故选D。‎ The world is a greener place than it was 20 years ago. A study published in the journal “Nature Sustainability” said that recent satellite data reveals a greening pattern that is strikingly prominent in China and India. The study shows that human activity in China and India dominates this greening of the planet, thanks to tree planting and agriculture. The effect comes mostly from ambitious tree-planting programs in China and intensive agriculture in both countries.‎ ‎“China and India account for one-third of the greening, ” said lead author Chi Chen of Boston University. “ That is a surprising finding, considering the vague idea of land degradation (毁坏) in populous countries from overexploitation, ” added Chen.‎ China alone accounts for 25 percent of the global net increase in leaf area with only 6.6 percent of global vegetated area. The greening in China is from forests (42 percent) and croplands (32 percent), but in India, it is mostly from croplands (82 percent) with minor contribution from forests (4.4 percent).‎ China’s outsized contribution to the global greening trend comes in large part from its programs to conserve and expand forests with the goal of preventing land degradation, air pollution, and climate change.‎ ‎“Once people realize there is a problem, they tend to fix it,” said Rama Nemani, research scientist and co-author of the study. “In the 1970s and 80s in India and China, the situation around vegetation loss was not good. In the 1990s, people realized it, and today things have improved. Now we see that humans are contributing.”‎ Land area used to grow crops is comparable in China and India—more than 770, 000 square ‎ miles—and has not changed much since the early 2000s. Yet these regions have greatly increased both their annual total green leaf area and their food production.‎ This was achieved through multiple cropping practices, where a field is replanted to produce another harvest several times a year. Production of grains, vegetables, fruits and more have increased by about 35%～40% since 2000 to feed their large populations.‎ ‎24．What did the study mainly find?‎ A．India and China are leading the global greening effort.‎ B．Intensive agriculture is the cause of global land degradation.‎ C．China and India has got the largest forest coverage in the world.‎ D．Agriculture is more helpful in expanding green areas than tree-planting.‎ ‎25．How is China different from India in contributing to the global greening?‎ A．India reduced cropland to prevent the overexploitation.‎ B．India increased forest by planting around croplands.‎ C．China changed more lands into forest by planting trees.‎ D．China controlled the increase of its population.‎ ‎26．What does Nemani think about humans in China and India in protecting the Earth?‎ A．Ambitious. B．Responsible.‎ C．Passionate . D．Tolerant.‎ ‎27．What does the passage finally suggest humans should make good use of?‎ A．Forest. B．Trees.‎ C．Cropland. D．Food ‎【答案】‎ ‎24．A ‎25．C ‎26．B ‎27．C ‎【解析】本文是一项研究报告。研究报道，印度和中国正在引领全球的绿色行动。文章建议人类应该好好利用耕地。‎ ‎24．推理判断题。根据第一段中The study shows that human activity in China and India ‎ dominates this greening of the planet, thanks to tree planting and agriculture.可知，研究主要发现了“印度和中国正在引领全球的绿色行动。”故选A。 ‎ Student photographer Madeline Morales has had experiences most 15 year-olds have not. At the age of 15, she developed cancer and had to go through chemotherapy(化疗). But today will be a unique kind of experience—something most people will never have. “It makes me feel excited, a little bit nervous,” said Morales, whose photos were on display at a gallery show in Los Angeles. These images reflect her journey while battling cancer.‎ She tried to look at things with a lot of light, a lot of what draws her to positivity and something that means love or happiness. “I think photography has really helped me a lot to stay positive and be motivated to keep fighting this disease.”‎ Morales is one of 23 students sharing their experiences with cancer through photos at this gallery. They are graduates of the PABLOVE foundation’s SHUTTERBUGS advanced photography class. The foundation aims to improve the lives of children living with the disease through its photography program. It also provides money for underfunded cancer research. Incomes from sales of these prints will go toward cancer research programs.‎ The PABLOVE program offers classes in eight cities across the United States. “Being in these classes with other people who understand their experience has been really beneficial, and it has really made them feel a lot more comfortable in what they’ve been through,” said Ashley Blakeney, program manager of PABLOVE SHUTTERBUBS. She said the photography classes give students living with cancer a sense of community at a time when they often feel isolated in their experience.‎ With photography many young students gain an identity that is not controlled by cancer. “There’s more to us than just having cancer. We want people to see what we see even if it’s through the lens(镜头).” says Luckman who was diagnosed with cancer when he was 10 years old. “Photography has given me a small chance to actually assist in the world a bit. I’d love to express my story and allow it to hopefully reach other kids so they can understand how to deal with it hopefully.‎ ‎41．Which of the following is true of Madeline Morals?‎ A．She has suffered from cancer for 15 years.‎ B．She has had a full recovery from cancer.‎ C．She has a positive attitude towards life.‎ D．She uses her photos to record her suffering.‎ ‎42．The PABLOVE Foundation was created specially for ________.‎ A．homeless people B．photography-lovers C．researcher on cancer D．children with cancer ‎43．What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?‎ A．The popularity of the program.‎ B．The great significance of this program.‎ C．The contributions of Ashley.‎ D．The future plan of the program.‎ ‎44．The underlined word “isolated” can be best replaced by ________.‎ A．lonely B．painful C．grateful D．positive ‎45．According to Lukman, how can photography class benefit children with cancer?‎ A．By giving them an identity card.‎ B．By offering a chance to help others.‎ C．By getting their cancer cured.‎ D．By offering a way to make money.‎ ‎【答案】‎ ‎41．C ‎42．D ‎43．B ‎44．A ‎45．B ‎【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章详细介绍了the PABLOVE program给患有癌症的儿童提供学习摄影的机会，以此让他们保持对待生活的积极态度。‎ ‎41．细节理解题。根据第二段She tried to look at things with a lot of light, a lot of what draws her to positivity and something that means love or happiness. “I think photography has really helped me a lot to stay positive and be motivated to keep fighting this disease.可知，‎ Madeline Morals参加了这个项目，她从积极的方面、从意味着爱和幸福的事物上看待一切事物。也就是说摄影帮助她保持积极的生活态度。故C项正确。‎ ‎42．细节理解题。根据第三段第三句The foundation aims to improve the lives of children living with the disease through its photography program.可知，the PABLOVE foundation这一项目的目的是通过这个项目来改善患有癌症的儿童的生活。故D项正确。‎ ‎44．猜测词义题。根据第四段“She said the photography classes give students living with cancer a sense of community at a time when they often feel isolated in their experience.”可知，摄影可以让患癌症的孩子在孤独的时候有一种团队感。句中“isolated”与“a sense of community团队感”表示相反的意思，可知该词意为“孤独的”，故A项正确。‎ ‎45．推理判断题。根据文章最后两句“Photography has given me a small chance to actually assist in the world a bit. I’d love to express my story and allow it to hopefully reach other kids so they can understand how to deal with it hopefully.”可知，Lukman认为摄影给了他帮助这个世界的机会。故B项正确。‎ When you’re choosing a college, a lot of factors probably may be considered: the school’s reputation, the classes offered, and the professors in your major, to name a few. However, considering the increasing competitiveness of universities to attract more and more applicants, many schools now offer extra benefits to be enjoyed by all of their students. Here are some of the coolest:‎ University of Missouri When you think of a campus gym, you probably picture a room equipped with old weights and out-of-date machines. However, at the University of Missouri, you can enjoy one of the best campus fitness centers in the country. It features an “indoor beach” complete with a waterfall and a lazy river, as well as a full-service spa. Even if you don’t normally enjoy working out, Missouri’s fitness center will give you a reason to go to the gym.‎ High Point University If you see yourself quickly tired of dining hall food—something that happens to almost all of us—High Point University in North Carolina has a great option for you: a private steakhouse for students. It’s a first-class restaurant, and, best of all, you don’t have to pay for the meal out of your own pocket. You can use your dining dollars instead.‎ Seton Hall University If you’re stressing out about the extra cost of technology when you start college, Seton Hall has great news for you: all freshmen are given free laptops through the university’s Mobile Computing Program. As a freshman, you’ll receive a laptop already set up with all of the software that you’ll need as a student. Then, after two years, you’ll receive a new and updated laptop designed to carry to through until after you graduate.‎ New York University If you’re a fan of museums, NYU(New York University) is the perfect university for you: not only are you located in the heart of a city featuring some of the best museums in the world, but the university will even provide you with free admission to many of them. You can take advantage of visiting free museums at any time you want—and you’ll never be bored on the weekends.‎ ‎46．What can we learn from Paragraph1?‎ A．It is hard to be admitted to a university.‎ B．A university’s fame is the top consideration.‎ C．The competition to attract applicants is fierce.‎ D．Extra benefits makes no difference to applicants.‎ ‎47．What can we learn about the fitness center in the University of Missouri?‎ A．Its equipment is out of date.‎ B．It is the best one in the world.‎ C．It has a real beach there.‎ D．It can arouse students’ interest in workout.‎ ‎48．Which university offers extra benefit of food?‎ A．University of Missouri.

You can use your dining dollars instead.”可知，High Point University会给学生提供第一流的餐厅，学生还可以用只能在校园里使用的dining dollars来支付用餐费用。这些属于学校提供的额外的吸引学生的地方。故B 项正确。 站上面讲述了几种旅行方式，可以吸引不同的人们进行选择。‎ ‎55．细节理解题。根据文章小标题 Plan ahead 下第一、二句 For a comfortable break， flexibility with times， dates and places helps lower the cost． Find a few hotels you like， ask about their vacant rooms， then wait a few weeks and call again 可知，在找到想预定的房间后，再等几周进行预定会节省不少费用，故选C。‎ ‎56．细节理解题。根据文章小标题 Back to nature 下第四句 If you're a camping beginner， be aware of safety measures and get your questions answered on the Internet 可知，如果你是野营新手的话，需要做好安全措施，警惕可能会遇到的危险，故选B。‎ ‎57．推断判断题。根据文章小标题 Road trip 下第二句中 For just $1 a day， you can hire a fully﹣equipped motorhome 和小标题 Plan ahead 下第一句 For a comfortable break， flexibility with times， dates and places helps lower the cost 以及小标题 Back to nature 下第一句 Wild camping appeals to nature lovers and costs nothing 可知，全文都在介绍如何玩耍，费用更低，故选D。‎ Stop wasting your time thinking of reasons for your failures and shortcomings. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.‎ The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You can be a success if only you make the right choice.‎ You cannot be successful without first developing your self-esteem (自尊). Your level of self-esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-esteem do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their life. They are leaves tossed (摆) by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather.‎ You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for whatever happens in your life. Losers think that everything happens by accident while successful people realize that they are responsible.‎ Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify the cause, we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we consciously choose to accept and believe. Thoughts and beliefs cause everything. Our attitudes and actions are a result of habits ingrained in us over a period of time. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success depends upon our level of confidence. We are responsible for either reinforcing (强化) good habits or kicking bad habits and consciously replacing them with consistently practiced good habits.‎ If you associate with positive-thinking people, you are definitely going to achieve success. On the contrary, the opposite happens. We are responsible for finding, planting, and nurturing (培育) the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks.‎ In short, in all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success.‎ ‎58．People with low self-esteem are compared to leaves because they ________.‎ A．are ready to change their minds B．are easily affected by windy weather C．don’t have the power to face their fate D．can’t exercise control over themselves ‎59．Losers would think that ________.‎ A．success is the result of hard work B．working hard will lead to success C．their failure is only because of bad luck D．they don’t make efforts to succeed ‎60．It can be inferred from Paragraph 5 that ________.‎ A．whether we will succeed depends on our attitudes B．developing confidence is the key to future success C．thoughts and beliefs are the result of creative mind D．setting our expectations is essential before taking action ‎61．The last paragraph serves as ________.‎ A．the proof of the author’s points B．the conclusion of the argument C．an introduction to another topic D．a comparison between two views ‎62．Which is the best title for the passage?‎ A．Success Is a Choice B．The Secrets of Success C．Develop Our Confidence D．How to Achieve Success ‎【答案】‎ ‎58．D ‎59．C ‎60．B ‎61．B ‎62．A ‎【解析】这是一篇议论文。文章论述了成功是我们个人的选择，不是偶然的。我们要为自己的所作所为负责任。成功与否取决于个人。‎ ‎59．推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Losers think that everything happens by accident while successful people realize that they are responsible”可知，失败者认为一切都是偶然的。也就是说，他们认为自己的失败也是偶然的，只是运气不好碰巧失败而已。他们没有意识到实际上自己应该为自己的失败负责任。故C选项正确。‎ ‎60．推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Our success depends upon our level of confidence”可知，我们的成功取决于我们的信心水平。由此可以推断出，要想成功，培养自信心是关键。高度自信才能成功。故B选项正确。‎ ‎61．推理判断题。最后一段提到：总之，在你生活中的所有领域—不管是经济上、身体上、情感上还是精神上，你都要承担责任。一旦你意识到这一点，接受它，并且坚信它，那么你离成功就不远了。根据in short（总之）可知，该段内容是对上文的总结，故B选项正确。‎ ‎62．标题归纳题。前两段强调：播撒成功的种子，促进成功的种子的成长全都是由我们自己决定的。成功是个人的选择，而不是偶然。只有做出了正确的选择，你才可能成功。第三到第五段是对前两段内容的拓展，强调要想成功，我们首先要培养自尊。只有我们为自己的所作所为负责，我们才能掌控自己，才能培养自尊。我们有责任去强化自己的好习惯，改掉坏习惯。此外，我们还要和思想积极的人交往。最后一段是总结，强调我们要对生活中的各个方面负责，这样我们才能踏上成功之路。根据文章的脉络可以看出，作者在文中强调了我们的主观行为和主观选择决定了我们的成功。故A选项适合作标题。B、D选项实际上是一个意思：取得成功的方式。这两个选项覆盖面太广，而本文只强调了取得成功的部分因素。C选项根本就没有提及成功这个话题，与文章主体内容不符。‎ NASA has a new job listing, and it’s no joke. The US space agency is looking for a “joker” to join their planned mission to Mars.‎ A mission to Mars is no laughing matter. On average, the red planet is 140 million miles (225 million kilometers) away from Earth. A trip there would take around eight months in a small spacecraft. And Mars has a communications delay of 20 minutes. This means that astronauts will have to wait 20 minutes for a reply, when an emergency happens.‎ ‎“When you’re living with others in a confined space for a long period of time, such as on a mission to Mars, problems are likely to occur,” Jeffrey Johnson, a scientist at the University of Florida, told the Guardian.‎ This is probably why NASA wants an astronaut with a sense of humor. “These are people that have the ability to pull everyone together,” Johnson said.‎ In stressful situations, perhaps humor is a way to know we aren’t alone. By laughing together, we share our stress. Then we can focus on our jobs instead of just worrying.‎ There are other examples of team “clowns”. One example is the journey to the South Pole led by Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen. It was a difficult journey, full of danger. Adolf Lindstrom, a cook at Amundsen’s team, was a “clown”. He made people laugh through the whole journey. Amundsen later wrote that Lindstrom was the most valuable member of the team.‎ But if you’re hoping that your favorite TV comedian will fly to Mars, that probably won’t happen.‎ ‎“Being funny won’t be enough to land somebody the job,” Johnson said. “They also need to be an excellent scientist and engineer.”‎ Besides, they must be in top physical condition.‎ ‎63．What is NASA’s new job listing?‎ A．A funny engineer. B．A talented clown.‎ C．A good cook. D．A popular comedian.‎ ‎64．What does “a confined space” in Paragraph 3 refer to?‎ A．A crowded space. B．An empty space.‎ C．An open space. D．A small space.‎ ‎65．How does the author think humor can help astronauts?‎ A．It can stop them from feeling worried.‎ B．It can encourage teamwork on a mission.‎ C．It can help them feel less homesick.‎ D．It can help them know themselves better.‎ ‎66．What point does the author want to make with the example of the cook?‎ A．What explorers eat on their journey is very important.‎ B．An amateur can play a more important role than a professional.‎ C．Humorous people can cheer people up in difficult situations.‎ D．A mission to Mars is more difficult than a journey to the South Pole.‎ ‎67．What could be the best title of the passage?‎ A．Keeping the Spirits Up B．A Mission to Mars C．A New Job Listing of NASA D．Humorous Astronauts in NASA ‎【答案】‎ ‎63．B ‎64．D ‎65．B ‎66．C ‎67．C ‎【解析】这是一篇记叙文。美国宇航局有一份新的工作。它正在寻找一个“小丑”来加入前往火星的任务中。文章分析了美国宇航局这么做的原因，还以Adolf Lindstrom为例，突出了幽默感在该项任务中重要性。 站。所以这篇文章应出自一个网站。故C选项正确。‎ ‎74．细节理解题。题干中的“the Smiths”是夫妇，属于成年人，他们的女儿11岁。根据年龄来看，他们应该选择图表中的Family Surf Week，对应时间分别为： May 27th-30th; June2th -6th；June16th-20th; June30th-July 3rd；July 7th-11th；July21st-25th。 选项中只有July 22nd在这些日期范围之内。故D选项切题。‎ ‎75．细节理解题。根据Session 5对应的Adults only可知，只有成年人（18岁及以上）可以参加Session 5；根据Session 8对应的Women’s Camp(18 and over)可知，只有女性成年人（18岁及以上）可以参加Session 8。综上，即可参加Session 5又可参加Session 8的只有女性成年人。结合选项只有D选项中的Mrs Blace和她21岁的女儿都属于女性成年人。故D选项正确。 ‎ China has entered the cinematic space race. Wandering Earth, the country’s first blockbuster science fiction film, is on track to be one of the highest-grossing (总收入) films in China’s history.‎ The film has brought in more than 2bn yuan (£232m) in the six days since its release on February 5. So far, it is the highest-grossing film released over the holiday season, a peak time for the Chinese box office.‎ Wandering Earth is based on the work of Liu Cixin, the author of the Three-Body Problem series and the first Chinese author to win a Hugo award.‎ ‎“Wandering Earth fills the gap in Chinese science fiction movies. It means that China’s science fiction movies have officially set sail,” one fan of the film wrote on the review site Douban.‎ The film is seen by some as the dawn of Chinese sci-fi — a genre that has long been led by Hollywood. Several other Chinese-made sci-fi films are due to debut (首映) this year, including Shanghai Fortress, about an alien invasion, and Pathfinder, which follows a spaceship that has crashed on a deserted planet.‎ Frant Gwo, the director of Wandering Earth, said, “2019 could be remembered as year zero ‎ of Chinese science-fiction blockbusters. It is not just about one successful movie but about multiple films.”‎ Critics of the film have pointed out the plot holes and the one-dimensional female characters — something Wandering Earth shares with its Hollywood peers.‎ In response to plot criticisms about the necessity of ejecting (喷射) Earth from the solar system, Liu said: “Of course we don’t need to escape soon. That’s why it’s a movie instead of a real-life crisis.”‎ ‎93．Wandering Earth has become China’s ________.‎ A．first blockbuster sci-fi film B．highest-grossing film C．only sci-fi film this year D．first sci-fi film to win an award ‎94．What is the fan’s attitude toward the film according to Paragraph 4?‎ A．Doubtful. B．Negative.‎ C．Praiseful. D．Uncaring.‎ ‎95．Which aspect do the critics think is a shortcoming of the film?‎ A．The theory. B．The ending.‎ C．The special effects. D．The plot holes.‎ ‎【答案】‎ ‎93．A ‎94．C ‎95．D ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇议论文。文章主要叙述各界人士对于Wandering Earth这部中国第一部轰动一时的科幻电影的评价和看法。‎ ‎93．细节理解题。第一段第二句“Wandering Earth, the country’s first blockbuster science fiction film”可知Wandering Earth是中国第一部轰动一时的科幻电影，故选A。‎ ‎94．细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“Wandering Earth fills the gap in Chinese science fiction movies. It means that China’s science fiction movies have officially set sail,”可知影迷认为Wandering Earth填补了中国科幻电影的空白。它意味着中国的科幻电影已经正式起航。由此可知影迷对电影的态度是赞扬的，故选C。‎ ‎95．细节理解题。倒数第二段第一句“Critics of the film have pointed out the plot holes”可知评论家们认为这部电影的缺点是情节漏洞，故选D。‎ Barcelona Ciclo Tour, 1 of the 10 best bike tours in the world!‎ Gaudi, the ancient streets of the gothic quarter, the multi-cultural district of El Raval. the beaches and modernism buildings, by bike!‎ The Daily Barcelona Bike Tour The best way to see Barcelona is by bike!

As we enjoyed our coffee, a man called the waiter and placed his order, “Two cups of coffee, one on the wall.” We got interested and observed that he was served with one cup of coffee but he paid for two. As soon as he left, the waiter attached a piece of paper to the wall saying “A Cup of Coffee.” Similar occasions took place twice while we were there. It seemed that this gesture was quite normal at this place. However, it was something unique and confusing for us.‎ After a few days, when we again enjoyed coffee there, a man entered. The way this man was dressed did not match the standard or the atmosphere of this coffee shop. Poverty was evident from his looks. As he seated himself, he looked at the wall and said, “One cup of coffee from the wall.” The waiter served coffee to this man with respect and dignity. The man had his coffee and left without paying. We were amazed to watch all this when the waiter took off a piece of paper from the wall and threw it in the dustbin.‎ Now it was no surprise for us; the matter was very clear. The great respect for the needy shown by people in this town moved us to tears.‎ Coffee is not a necessity. However, the point is that when we take pleasure in any blessing, maybe we also need to think about those people who also appreciate that specific blessing but cannot afford.‎ Note the waiter, who gets the communication going between the affording and the needy with a smile on his face. Think about the man in need: he enters the coffee shop without having to lower his self-dignity; he has a free cup of coffee without asking or knowing about who has given this cup of coffee to him; he only looked at the wall, placed an order for himself, enjoyed his coffee and left. Besides, we need to remember the role played by the wall that reflects the generosity and care of people in this town.‎ ‎100．What made the author interested as well as confused?‎ A．The waiter’s making normal gestures.‎ B．Customers’ buying coffee for the needy.‎ C．The waiter’s attaching coffee orders on the wall.‎ D．Customers’ paying for coffee and having it put on the wall.‎ ‎101．The author thought the man in need was ______.‎ A．not properly dressed B．obviously poor C．not right to leave without paying D．strange to order coffee from the wall ‎102．In the author’s opinion, coffee is _____.‎ A．necessary in our life B．respect shown for the needy C．a blessing to someone who can’t afford D．a blessing everyone should have ‎103．The passage is mainly concerned about ______.‎ A．learning from the waiter B．buying coffee for others C．caring more about the people in need D．analyzing the characters in the coffee shop ‎【答案】‎ ‎100．D ‎101．B ‎102．C ‎103．C ‎【解析】本文为记叙文，文章讲述作者在一个著名的咖啡店看见的一幕，有人在点咖啡的时候，故意多点一杯，服务员会将一张写有“一杯咖啡”字样的纸贴在墙上，后来的穷人就可以要这杯咖啡，而不用花钱。‎ ‎101．细节理解题。根据第二段第三句Poverty was evident from his looks.可知从他的外表来看，贫穷是显而易见的，所以选B。‎ ‎102．推理判断题。根据第四段第二句However, the point is that when we take pleasure in any blessing, maybe we also need to think about those people who also appreciate that specific blessing but cannot afford.可知咖啡或许是人们对那些支付不起的人的一种祝福，故选C。‎ ‎103．主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了作者在一个著名的咖啡店看见的一幕，有人在点咖啡的时候，故意多点一杯，服务员会将一张写有“一杯咖啡”字样的纸贴在墙上，后来的穷人就可以要这杯咖啡，而不用花钱的故事，由此可以看出，本文传达的关心，关爱有需要的人，所以C正确。‎ What will power your house in the future? Nuclear wind or solar power? According to scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT) in the US, it might be artificial leaves.‎ Natural leaves are able to change sunlight and water into energy. It is known as photosynthesis (光合作用). Now researchers have found a way to imitate this process.‎ The artificial leaf developed by Daniel Nocera and his colleagues at MIT can be seen as a special silicon chip with catalysts(催化剂). Similar to natural leaves, it can split water into hydrogen and oxygen when put into a bucket of water. The hydrogen and oxygen gases are then stored in a fuel cell (电池), using those two materials to produce electricity, located either on top ‎ of a house or beside the house.‎ Though the leaf is only about the shape of a poker card, scientists claimed that it is promising to be an inexpensive source of electricity in developing countries. “One can imagine villages in India and Africa not long from now purchasing an affordable basic power system based on this technology” said an American scientist, Nocera.‎ An artificial leaf is not a new idea. The first artificial leaf was invented in 1997 but was too expensive and unstable for practical use. The new leaf, however, is made of cheap materials, easy to use and highly stable. In laboratory studies, Nocera showed that an artificial leaf could operate continuously for at least 45 hours.‎ The wonderful improvements come from Nocera’s recent discovery of several powerful new, inexpensive catalysts. These catalysts make the energy transformation inside the leaf more efficient with water and sunlight. Right now the new leaf is about 10 times more effective at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural one. Besides, the device can run in whatever water is available. This is important for some countries that don’t have access to pure water.‎ Hopefully, each home could have access to the new application in the future.‎ ‎104．The purpose of this article is to ________.‎ A．introduce a new kind of device B．ask people to do the research C．advertise the new product D．show the process of photosynthesis ‎105．Which of the following is NOT the advantages of the new leaf?‎ A．It’s low in cost.‎ B．It’s small in size.‎ C．It has a wonderful fuel cell.‎ D．It’s convenient for people to use.‎ ‎106．What conclusion can be drawn from the text?‎ A．Nocera thought the new leaf is expensive for developing countries.‎ B．Villages in Africa have benefited a lot from the new invention.‎ C．Silicon chip can help the new leaf work more effectively.‎ D．The equipment doesn’t necessarily operate in pure water.‎ ‎107．What’s the writer’s attitude towards the new device?‎ A．Negative.‎ B．Optimistic.‎ C．Doubtful.‎ D．Uncertain.‎ ‎108．According to the text, what will take place in the future?‎ A．Natural leaves will take the place of artificial leaves.‎ B．Scientists will develop more ways to produce energy.‎ C．The new invention could be widely used in the future.‎ D．Developing countries will contribute more to the research.‎ ‎【答案】‎ ‎104．A ‎105．C ‎106．D ‎107．B ‎108．C ‎【解析】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了一项仿造叶子光合作用的发明——人工叶子的工作原理、工作性能和工作条件，这项发明有望为发展中国家提供便宜的能源。 ‎ The regular world presented to us by our five senses—you could call it reality 1.0—is not always the most user-friendly of places. We get lost in unfamiliar cities; we meet people whose language we don’t understand. So why not try the improved version: augmented reality (AR) or reality 2.0? AR technology adds computer-produced images (图像) on the real world via a mobile phone camera or special video glasses.‎ Early forms of AR are already here. With the right downloads, smart phones can deliver information about nearby ATMs and restaurants and other points of interest. But that’s just the beginning. A few years from now the quantity of information available will have increased hugely. You will not only see that there’s a Chinese restaurant on the next block, but you will be able to see the menu and read reviews of it.‎ This is where the next revolution in computing will take place: in the interface (界面 ‎) between the real world and the information brought to us via the Internet. Imagine bubbles floating before your eyes, filled with cool information about anything and everything that you see in front of you.‎ Let’s jump ahead to ten years from now. A person trying to fix their car won’t be reading a book with pictures; they will be wearing a device that projects animated 3-D computer graphics onto the equipment under repair, labelling parts and giving step-by-step guidance.‎ The window onto the AR world can be a smart phone or special video glasses. But in ten years’ time these will have been replaced by contact lenses (隐形眼镜) with tiny LEDs, which present something at a readable distance in front of the eye. So a deaf person wearing these lenses will be able to see what people are saying.‎ The question is, while we are all absorbed in our new augmented reality worlds, how will we be communicating with each other?‎ ‎124．What does the text mainly talk about?‎ A．The next information technology revolution.‎ B．Early forms of augmented reality technology.‎ C．The differences between reality 1.0 and reality 2.0.‎ D．The relationship between people living in reality 2.0.‎ ‎125．What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 2?‎ A．The menu. B．The block.‎ C．The revolution. D．The restaurant.‎ ‎126．What are tiny LEDs used to do?‎ A．Protect people’s eyes. B．Show text and images.‎ C．Warn users of dangers. D．Replace video glasses.‎ ‎127．What’s the author’s attitude towards AR technology?‎ A．Doubtful. B．Disapproving.‎ C．Favourable. D．Ambiguous.‎ ‎【答案】‎ ‎124．A ‎125．D ‎126．B ‎127．C ‎【解析】‎ 本文属于说明文。作者主要介绍了AR技术(增强现实技术)的发展，即将给人们工作、生活带来的巨大变化。AR技术是下一场信息技术革命。‎ ‎125．词义指代题。根据本段前面信息可知，通过网络，你不仅可以查看下一个街区中餐馆的位置，还可以查看该餐馆的菜单和人们对它的评论。因此，it指代的是那个餐馆，故选D。‎ ‎126．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“...with tiny LEDs, which present something at a readable distance in front of the eye.”信息可知，这种装在隐形眼镜上的LEDs是用来在人的眼前可读范围内展示某些东西的设备；本句后面的举例:失聪的人戴上这种隐形眼镜后可以看见人们所讲的是什么东西，故本题选B。‎ ‎127．作者态度题。作者在第一段谈到reality 1.0反应给人们的信息不准确，对用户不友好，比如在陌生城市会迷路；我们会遇到听不懂的语言等。作者提出为什么不试一试reality 1.0的升级版reality 2.0 (AR technology)呢，由此可知，作者对该技术持肯定态度，故选C。‎ ‎128．---John and I will celebrate our fortieth wedding anniversary next month.‎ ‎---Oh, !‎ A．cheer up B．well down C．go ahead D．congratulations ‎【答案】D ‎【解析】考查交际用语。A振作起来；B干得好！C去做吧！D祝贺你！句意：—John和我在下个月要庆祝我们结婚40周年。—祝贺你们。故D正确。‎ ‎129．He will have to ____ of his opponent's criticisms of a wild ambition, ____ driving him to be crazy.‎ A．face the music; one B．cry for the moon; ones C．walk on eggshell; who D．wake a sleeping dog; which ‎【答案】A ‎【解析】face the music勇于面对困难，接受应得的惩罚面对现实；cry for the moon异想天开，痴心妄想； walk on eggshell正处于危险境地，如履薄冰。 D. wake a sleeping dog招惹是非。自找麻烦。分析句子可知，第二个空后driving him to be crazy是非谓语动词作定语，所以不是从句，不能用who，或which，可知，C和D错误。本句的的第二个空与前面的a wild ambition是同位语关系，是单数，所以不能ones，因此只有A项正确。句中的face the music of…为固定用法，意为“勇于面对困难，接受应得的惩罚，面对现实”。故选A项。‎ ‎130．--“The similarities between Mars and Earth are enough to keep ____ hopes of some form of Martian life.”‎ ‎-- “______.
