THEN WE CAME TO THE END
Joshua Ferris
The first novel by American author Joshua Ferris was so different, because it is written in the second on; the group of odd office colleagues talk and act as a collective. It must have been hard to maintain, but Ferris does a great job. It is really a good novel set in boring office environments.
THE GRAPES OF WRATH
John Steinbeck
Obviously a classic and still popular, the themes of this novel are timeless and echo just us strongly today. Set during the Great Depression, the story follows a family of “Okies” — poor migrant farmers from Oklahoma — as they head west seeking work.
PROPERTY
Lionel Shriver
Short stories from one of our best contemporary writers. Exploring the theme of possessions and ownership from many angles, this is certainly one for Marie Kondo fans. I have long been interested in what it is about things that can hook some people. The drive to possess items that serve no obvious purpose is most appealing to me. Fine, if an item is something given to you by someone special. But if you take a look around you, some things are probably simply useless and unmemorable. Shriver’s book explores it better.
THE LOVE THAT I HAVE
James Maloney
This absorbing story is about Margot Baumann, who takes a job in a mail-room in what, as later becomes clear, is a concentration camp. The amazing thing is the perspective it gives of German life during World War Ⅱ. Of course not all Germans, probably the large majority, had any real idea of what was going on. Within Margot’s immediate circle you see the reactions among the German population to the rise and fall of their beloved — or hated-Fuhrer (元首). And nation.
1. For whom is this text mainly intended?
A. Novelists. B. Book addicts.
C. Editors. D. Story tellers.
2. Who may be liked by Marie Kondo fans?
A. Joshua Ferris. B. John Steinbeck.
C. Lionel Shriver. D. James Maloney
3. What is special about THE LOVE THAT I HAVE?
A. It follows a family of “Okies”.
B. It is set in boring office environments.
C. It tells stories about a contemporary writer.
D. It explores the rise and fall of a nation in the world.

One spring morning, I was hiking on southeastern Alaska’s Island when I froze. 20 paces away was a huge Alaskan Wolf — caught in a trap. It was a mother wolf. Somewhere there were hungry pups (幼崽) waiting for her.
From her appearance, I guessed that she had been trapped only a few days. That meant her pups were probably still alive. So I decided to search for her pups. Fortunately, I spotted her pups. I began imitating the high-pitched call of a mother wolf calling her young. A few moments later, four tiny pups appeared. One by one, I placed them in a bag and headed back down the slope.
When the mother wolf spotted me, she let out a high-pitched. I released the pups, and they raced to her. I could see that the trap’s steel jaws had imprisoned only two toes. They were swollen, but she wouldn’t lose the paw — if I could free her.
“OK,” I said. “Just a minute and you will be free.” I applied pressure, the trap opened, and the wolf pulled free. Reaching the far side, I looked back. The mother and her pups were sitting where I had left them, watching me. I waved. At the same time, the mother wolf sent a long howl into the air.
Four years later, I returned after serving in the Army. Standing on the edge of
a hill, I gave out a wolf call. An echo came and a wolf call followed. Then I saw a dark shape moving in my direction. “Hello, old girl,” I called gently. The wolf moved closer, her tail wagging slightly. Moments later, the wolf left. But the memory she left with me will always be there, a reminder that there are things in nature that exist outside the laws and understanding of man.
4. How did the author feel when he first came across the wolf?
A. Frightened. B. Satisfied.
C. Excited. D. Disappointed.
5. What is the main idea of the second paragraph?
A. The author rescued the mother wolf.

D. The wolf couldn’t recognize the author four years later.
7. What can be the best title for the text?
A. A Hike Trapped a Wolf.
B. We Should Protect the Wolf.
C. The Story Between a Man And a Wolf.
D. How Can One Help Endangered Animals.
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【分析】
本文为记叙文。讲述了作者在徒步旅行时解救了一只被困的母狼并帮助她找到了狼崽,多年后又见到母狼的故事。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。由第一段第一句“One spring morning, I was hiking on southeastern
Alaska’s Island when I froze. 20 paces away was a huge Alaskan Wolf — caught in a trap.” 一个春天的早晨,我在阿拉斯加东南部的岛上徒步旅行看见一只被困于陷阱中的狼时吓呆了。由此可知作者看到狼被吓得浑身冰冷,故选A。
【5题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全段可知文章第二段主要叙述作者在旅行时见到被困的狼时感觉狼崽可能还活着,于是想帮助她找到幼崽,最后找到狼崽并把它们带到母狼的身边。分析选项可知,选B。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。由最后一段第一句话“Four years later, I returned after serving in the Army”可知他曾在军中服役,即他曾经是一名士兵。分析选项可知选A。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了作者解救了一只被困的母狼,并帮助它找到幼崽。也就是狼和人的故事。分析选项可知选C。
【点睛】确定最佳标题的方法。在阅读文章时,要注意文章中反复出现的或强调的信息,寻找与文章大多数内容相关的信息。找出覆盖全文的核心词汇,看选项内容是否切中文章的中心论题。也就是要看选项内容与作者的写作目的是否一致。如第4小题,文章的内容就是作者(human)如何帮助狼(wolf)妈妈及小幼崽的故事,这与选项C中的The Story Between a Man And a Wolf相照应。
寻找文章的主题句。文章主要论题的关键是找到文章的主题句。主题句通常在文章的首段,也可能在文章的末段,在文章的某一段落,或分散在文章的各个段落中。如果每个段落都有主题句,那么把各段落的主题句的中心集中起来,即为全文的主题句。文章主要讲述了作者解救了一只被困的母狼,帮助它找到幼崽,多年之后再见它们与其成为朋友,也就是狼和人的故事。分析选项可知选C。
C
If a shopper clicks “buy” for a product that costs $1,000 or more, it’s twice as likely to be a man than a woman. That’s one of the results revealed in a new NPR/ Marist poll about online shopping.
The poll found that 27 percent of online shoppers —regardless of gender — have bought big-ticket items ($1,000 or more). It’s the evolution of digital commerce
from the Webs early days in the 1990s, when people worried about giving out their credit card information and whether products would even arrive. Today, many shoppers are willing to make even their most cherished and expensive purchases online, such as musical instruments, a diamond engagement ring……
Speed and convenience are two factors why many men eagerly make major purchases online, said Americus Reed Il, a marketing professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School. “What the research has shown is that men go to the store quickly, gather as much information as they can quickly and just buy it online, particularly because it’s just faster, Reed said. Other factors may also explain the discrepancy between men and women. On average, men have higher incomes. They also tend to be early adopters when it comes to technology, according to Sucharita Kodali, an e-commerce analyst with the research firm Forrester.
Bateman said that, early on, men lagged behind women in making fashion purchases online, but that’s changing. And the retailer’s analysis shows that click and buy is their customers’ method of choice. “We know that 65 percent of their fashion shopping is done online,” Bateman said. “That’s a phenomenal figure because that really defines them as being more digital creatures than physical in the shopping sense.”
8. What can we infer from the second paragraph?
A. The most expensive purchases occur online.
B. Online shopping was not popular in the 1990s.
C. Today the majority of the people tend to buy online.
D. Most online shoppers have bought big-ticket items.
9. What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?
A. Why men tend to purchase online.
B. What kinds of purchases will be done by men.
C. Important causes for advanced shopping online.
D. Factors for women to buy expensive items online.
10. What does the underlined word discrepancy in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Similarity. B. Responsibility.
C. Distinction. D. Sense.
11. What’s Batemans attitude towards online shopping?
A. Doubtful. B. Objective.
C. Satisfied. D. Disappointed.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【分析】
本文为说明文。美国国家公共广播电台(NPR)和马里斯特网站(Marist)就网上购物进行的一项最新调查,一件价值1000美元或以上的产品,那么男性在网上购买有可能是女性的两倍。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“the Web’s early days in the 1990s, when people worried about giving out their credit card information and whether products would even arrive…”可知,当时人们对网购有种种顾虑可推知,当时的网购不是那么流行。分析选项可知,选B。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“Speed and convenience are two factors why many men eagerly make major purchases online…”和“…Other factors may also explain…”及“…men have higher incomes. They also tend to be early adopters when it comes to technology”可知本段主要讲述造成男士更有可能网上购物的原因。故选A。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。由文章第一段“网上购物调查的结果显示对于一件价值1000美元或以上的产品,那么男性在网上购买有可能是女性的两倍”和该词出处的句子下文“men have higher incomes. They also tend to be early adopters when it comes to technology” (男人的收入更高。在技术使用方面,他们更倾向于先采用技术。综合可知该句说男女的不同(distinction)。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。文章中列举了许多数字来说明在网上购物的性别差异 ,结合最后一段“We know that 65 percent of their fashion shopping is done online,” 和 “That’s a phenomenal figure because that really defines them as being more digital creatures than physical in the shopping sense”可知其态度较为客观,故选B。
【点睛】在阅读中我们经常会考查猜测词义题。事实上,阅读材料中的每个词与它前后的词语或句子甚至段落都有联系。运用逻辑推理猜测词义是使用最广考查最多也最易失分的猜词方式,这要求考生具备整合分散、复杂信息的能力,充分利用上下文(各种已知信息)并结合具体的语境推测、判断某些词或短语的词义。例如第3小题词意猜测题。由文章第一段“网上购物调查的结果显示对于一件价值1000美元或以上的产品,那么男性在网上购买有可能是女性的两倍”和该词出处的句子下文“men have higher incomes. They also tend to be early adopters when it comes to technology” (男人的收入更高。在技术使用方面,他们更倾向于先采用技术。综合可知该句说男女的不同(distinction)。故选C。
D
After years of studying the Baka people of Cameroon, Fernando Ramirez Rozzi was surprised to find a sudden drop in fertility (生育) among young women in 2011. He tried to remember what had happened in the community that could have caused the change. The biggest news was a bar opened in late 2010 in the village, selling a cheap, dangerous mix of methanol (甲醇) and ethanol (乙醇).
But was alcohol to blame for the decline in births? To answer that question, Ramirez Rozzi, a human paleontologist, compared the number of births before and after the bar opened. Ramirez Rozzi found the fertility rate dropped significantly after 2011 — from an average of 8. 8 babies per woman to 5. 6. And the rate decreased even more in younger women.
Alcohol — especially the dangerous mix sold at the new bar — has been shown to contribute to many serious health conditions, including infertility in women. Indeed, government authorities in Cameroon have banned the production of the kind because it causes major disorders of the nervous system, cancers, and death. That the drop in fertility was especially high among young women also pointed to alcohol, because they hung out at the bar more than older women, listening to loud music and getting drunk.
Ramirez Rozzi looked into other major changes, such as higher rates of disease. He found nothing. So he concludes that alcohol is to blame. Other researchers say Ramirez Rozzi’s argument is convincing. “The case for alcohol abundance causing a drop in fertility is persuasive, says Nicholas Blurton-Jones, professor emeritus
at the University of California, Los Angeles. Blurton-Jones was not involved with the new work, but he has studied another group of hunter-gatherers who also struggle with alcohol.
The drop in fertility could threaten the Baka people’s chances of survival over time Ramire Rozzi says. When he shared his data with the Baka women in a meeting last year, they told him they were very concerned about that.
12. Why was the drop in fertility especially high among young women?
A. They were too tired. B. They didn’t want to have babies.
C. They drank too much alcohol. D. They were so busy with their work.
13. What can we learn from the text?
A. Another group of people also have the same problem.
B. Ramirez Rozzi did the research with other researchers.
C. The Baka women didn’t care about what Ramirez Rozzi told them.
D. Ramirez Rozzi found other factors contributing to the reduction in fertility.
14. What does Nicholas Blurton-Jones think of Ramirez Rozzi’s finding?
A. Ridiculous. B. Unforgettable.
C. Incorrect. D. Believable
15. What is the main idea of the text?
A. Bad effects of alcohol abuse.
B. A bar was popular in a village
C. Alcohol leads to drop in fertility.
D. Young women like to drink alcohol.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【分析】
本文为说明文。本文Ramirez Rozzi通过多年对喀麦隆巴卡人的研究发现酒精大大影响人的生育率。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段最后一句话 “That the drop in fertility was especially high among
young women also pointed to alcohol, because they hung out at the bar more than older women, listening to loud music and getting drunk”.可知,年轻女性的生育率下降特别高,这也说明了在年轻女性中有喝酒的情况,因为她们比年长的女性更多地在酒吧里闲逛,听大声的音乐,喝得酩酊大醉。由此可知,C项符合题意,故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。由第四段“but he has studied another group of hunter-gatherers who also struggle with alcohol.”可知,还有一组人也有同样的问题。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。由第四段“Other researchers say Ramirez Rozzi’s argument is convincing. “The case for alcohol abundance causing a drop in fertility is persuasive,” says Nicholas Blurton-Jones, professor emeritus at the University of California, Los Angeles.” 可知,其他研究人员说,拉米雷斯·罗兹的论点令人信服。教授Nicholas Blurton-Jones也说:“酒精过多导致生育率下降的理由很有说服力。由此可推断出Nicholas Blurton-Jones 对 Ramirez Rozzi的发现是认可的,故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。本文的在第二段“But was alcohol to blame for the decline in births?”提出论点,在第四段“Alcohol — especially the dangerous mix sold at the new bar — has been shown to contribute to many serious health conditions, including infertility in women. Other researchers say Ramirez Rozzi’s argument is convincing.”以及 “The case for alcohol abundance causing a drop in fertility is persuasive,” says Nicholas Blurton-Jones 由此可知,本文主要讲述酒精影响人的生育率。故选C。
【点睛】推理判断试题属于高层次阅读理解题。这种题型包括判断题和推理题。这两类题常常相互依存,推理是为了得出正确的判断,正确的判断又依赖于合乎逻辑的推理。第3小题属于推理判断题。由第四段“Other researchers say Ramirez Rozzi’s argument is convincing. “The case for alcohol abundance causing a drop in fertility is persuasive,” says Nicholas Blurton-Jones, professor emeritus at the University of California, Los Angeles.” 可知,其他研究人员说,拉米雷斯•罗兹的论点令人信服。教授Nicholas Blurton-Jones也说:“酒精过多导致生育率下降的理由很有说服力。由此可推断出Nicholas Blurton-Jones 对 Ramirez Rozzi的发现是认可的,故D正确。
推理题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上,作出一定判断和推论,从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理题所涉及的内容可能是文中某一句话,也可是某几句话,但做题的指导思想都是以文字信息为依据,既不能做出在原文中找不到文字根据的推理,也不能根据表面文字信息做多步推理。也就是说,要做到判断有据, 推论有理, 忠实原文。切忌用自己的观点代替作者的本意,切忌片面思考,得出片面结论。

【解析】
本文为记叙文。本文主要讲述了作者外出用餐为一对老年夫妻结账事。
【41题详解】
考查从句引导词。句意:我在一家连锁的家庭餐馆里,那里的食物很便宜好吃,而且经常有特价菜。分析句子可知,本句为非限定性定语从句,其中先行词为a family restaurant,在定语从句中作主语,要用which。故用which。
【42题详解】
考查名词单复数。句意:餐馆里,那里的食物价格很低。好吃各种食物有不同价格,要用复数,故用prices。
【43题详解】
考查词性转换。句意:在我旁边的一排有一对可能有80多岁的夫妇。分析句子可知,本空在句中修饰动词,要用副词形式probably,故用probably 。
【44题详解】
考查人称代词。句意:他们坐在与我相邻的一排。分析句子可知,本句比较对象为餐桌,又后面无名词,应该用名词性物主代词,故用mine。
【45题详解】
考查时态及主谓一致。句意:我脑海中浮现的故事是,他们将用社保支票享受今晚的外出进餐。本文叙述的是过去的故事,为一般过去时态。The story为单数主语,故用was。
【46题详解】
考查时态。句意:当我吃完饭后,我去收银台去付款。本文为一般过去时态,故用finished。
【47题详解】
考查不定式。句意:当我吃完饭后,我去收银台去付款。本处要用不定式表示目的,故用to pay。
【48题详解】
考查非谓语。句意:因为我不想让他们觉得好像他们必须把它传下去,猜测他们已经很难把它传递下去。分析句子可知,本空在句中作伴随状语,gues的逻辑主语是“I”,二者是主动关关,因此用动词的ing形式,故用guessing。
【49题详解】
考查词性转换。句意:我感谢上帝保佑我能和这对温柔的夫妇分享一些东西。此处为系表结构,此处要用形容词,要用形容词“ blessed”。故用blessed。
【50题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:我感谢上帝保佑我能和这对温柔的夫妇分享一些东西。share sth. with sb.为固定搭配,意为“与某人分享某物”,故用with。

Dear Mr. Black,

Their performances will be score according to their pronunciations, tones or emotions of the characters in the films. Hope you will be available then and I believe we would learn more if you was there.
Looking forward to your reply at your earliest convenient.
Yours,
Jim
【答案】1.去掉chairman前的the
2. 在attend前添加to
3. great改为greatly
4. judge改为judges
5. lasted改为last
6. giving改为given
7. score改为scored
8. or改为and
9. was改为were
10. convenient改为convenience
【解析】
【分析】
本文为邀请信,邀请老师参加竞赛做评委。
【详解】1.考查冠词。句意:我是吉姆,学生会主席。英语中表示“独一无二的职务、头衔”时,不用冠词。故去掉the。
2.考查不定式。句意:我写信邀请你参加下星期五在我们学校演讲厅举行的英语配音比赛。句中的“invite sb. to do”为固定搭配,意为“邀请去做…”。故在attend前添加to。
3.考查副词。句意:如果你能成为我们的裁判,我们将不胜荣幸。句中的形容词honored需用副词来修饰,要用greatly。故把great改为greatly。
4.考查名词单复数。句意:如果你能成为我们的一名裁判,我们将不胜荣幸。one of后加可数名词复数,要用judges。因此judge改为judges。
5.考查动词时态。句意:比赛将于下午2:40开始,持续约2小时。本句为将来时态,在will之后用动词原形,要用last。故把lasted改为last。
6.考查非谓语。句意:所有的竞争者都将为一些流行的英语电影的给定部分配音。本题在句中做定语,与被修饰词之间是被动关系,要用given。故把giving改为given。
7.考查语态。句意:他们的表演将根据影片中人物的发音、声调或情绪来评分。句子的主语performances与动词score二者为被动关系,因此此处用被动语态,故把score改为scored。
8.考查连词。句意:他们的表演将根据影片中人物的发音、声调或情绪来评分。分析句子可知,前后为并列关系而非选择关系。要用and。故or改为and。
9.考查主谓一致。句意:我相信如果你在那里,我们会学到更多。本句的主语为you,虚拟语气用were。故把was改为were。
10.考查固定短语。句意:期待你在方便时给以答复。句中的“at one’s convenience”为固定搭配,意为“在方便的时候”。故把convenient改为convenience。

I’m Li Hua, an exchange student from Class One, Grade Three. To my great regret, I lost a blue handbag, which contains the keys to my bedroom and my bike, my ID card, pens as well as some cash in a small black wallet in the school library yesterday. These things are of great significance to me, because some of them can’t be obtained here in England. I would be extremely grateful if anyone who finds it will return it to me as soon as possible!

【解析】
【分析】
本文为应用文。你作为交换生在英国 Cambridge学习,在图书馆意外丢失书包,写一份寻物启事,以找回自己的书包。要点包括书包丢失地点与时间以及书包颜色与装的东西。
【详解】本文为提纲作文。本文主要分为三个部分。第一部分主要叙述写启事的原因,即在图书馆意外丢失书包。第二部分叙述丢失书包的具体情况,如时间地点以及书包颜色与装的东西。最后一部分提供联系的方式,如电话,并表示感谢。
【点睛】本文要点完整,结构合理,语言简洁明了。文中运用一些较高级的词汇如to one’s great regret; as well as ; of great significance ; be extremely grateful; return sth to sb; as soon as possible。文中的句式相对灵活,如非限制性定语从句I lost a blue handbag, which contains the keys to my bedroom and my bike,和限制性定语从句anyone who finds it will return it to me as soon as possible!;原因状语从句 These things are of great significance to me, because some of them can’t be obtained here in
England.和I would be extremely grateful if anyone who finds it will return it to me as soon as possible;以及祈使句Come to my classroom or give me a call。整个文章一气呵成,是一篇不错的文章。
