B．Passionate.‎ C．Pessimistic. D．Inspiring.‎ ‎[解析]　推理判断题。文中提到的四本书，书中描写了遭遇不幸或身有残疾的人意志坚强并且与命运拼搏抗争的故事，都是积极向上鼓舞人心的，故选D。‎ ‎[答案]　D B My cellphone rang while I was working on my computer. I looked at the phone and saw it was my 17yearold son, Tom. I quickly picked it up. “Mom, I got a 71 on the test. I did it.” With those few words, I could feel my heart start to pound.‎ Living in New York‎ ‎State, students cannot graduate from high school unless they pass at least five exams: one in English, one in science, two in history and one in math. For most students, who work hard, attend class, and do their homework, it isn't that hard. But for Tom, who is dyslexic(朗读困难的), it is such a real challenge that some teachers have feared he would never be able to even attempt, never mind achieve.‎ We were honest with him about his trouble, letting him know that there was nothing 9‎ ‎ to be ashamed of. Some people learn differently. If he was willing to work, we would help him find a way to do as much as he could in his academic career. All that was standing in his way was this math test. He had taken it three times and did better each time, but he continued to fail. He was starting to get a bit tired of me saying this was a marathon not a sprint (冲刺). My heart broke each time we would get the failing results.‎ ‎“Mom, thanks. I love you. Thanks for believing I could do this.”‎ For one of the few times in my life, I really had nothing left to say. For that one brief moment I knew, really, really, knew that everything we did to help our son achieve what he wanted was worth it.‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者的儿子Tom患有朗读困难症，所以学习不好，而纽约的高中要求学生通过五门考试才能毕业，作为母亲，作者想尽一切办法使Tom相信他自己可以做到。经过努力Tom终于通过了考试。‎ ‎4．What does the underlined word “pound” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?‎ A．Sink suddenly. B．Beat wildly.‎ C．Ache violently. D．Break totally.‎ ‎[解析]　词义猜测题。根据第一段中的“Mom, I got a 71 on the test. I did it.”并结合下文内容可推断，作者的儿子有朗读困难症，数学考了三次都没及格，这次他考了71分，通过了考试，故作者应该会感到非常激动，心怦怦直跳。故pound应意为“(心脏)剧烈地跳动”，即beat wildly。故答案选B。‎ ‎[答案]　B ‎5．According to the text, Tom was weak in ________.‎ A．English B．science C．history D．math ‎[解析]　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“All that was standing in his way was this math test. He had taken it three times and did better each time, but he continued to fail.”可知，Tom不擅长数学，考了三次都没有及格。故答案选D。‎ ‎[答案]　D ‎6．How did the writer feel when she wrote this text?‎ A．She felt proud and satisfied.‎ B．She felt surprised and bitter.‎ C．She felt grateful and relaxed.‎ D．She felt worried and anxious.‎ ‎[解析]　推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“For that one brief moment I knew,‎ 9‎ ‎ really, really, knew that everything we did to help our son achieve what he wanted was worth it.”可推断，作者对儿子最后通过考试很满意，也为儿子感到骄傲。故答案选A。‎ ‎[答案]　A ‎7．What can be the best title for the text?‎ A．A Mother's Love That Made the Grade B．A Student Who Struggled for a Diploma C．Failure Is the Mother of Success D．Life Is Not a Sprint but a ‎Marathon ‎[解析]　标题归纳题。纵观全文可知，作者的儿子Tom患有朗读困难症，所以学习不好，而纽约的高中要求学生通过五门考试才能毕业，作为母亲，作者想尽一切办法使Tom相信他自己可以做到。经过努力Tom终于考了71分通过了考试。由此可推断，是母亲的爱使Tom获得了成功。A项符合文章主旨，适合做标题。故答案选A。‎ ‎[答案]　A C Recently, I had lunch with a young Chinese student who studies at a college in New York. He is very bright and aspiring and I enjoyed our conversation. Still I felt frustrated and useless afterwards because I was not able to provide him with any good news. Graduating at the end of this year，he asked me how he could find a job in this country and fulfill his career dreams.‎ In recent years，students who found a job here after graduation have had to go through a cruel lottery system to obtain their HIB working visa. And the success rates have been declining year after year because of the ever growing number of applicants. Last year, there were 233,000 applicants, and only 30 percent of them were lucky, less than half of the rate in 2013.‎ And it can only become worse. US President Donald Trump's immigration policies in this country are tightening up and this trend will continue for at least the next few years. In this case, foreign students studying social sciences, a field in which starting salaries are rarely above the required amount, can kiss their visa hopes goodbye.‎ Compared to the older generation of Chinese students，today's young people no longer consider the US as the only option. Many start to think China offers better opportunities in the longer term.‎ This is not to say that Chinese students in the US are not interested in job opportunities here any more. A few years of work experience in the US can give them ‎ 9‎ leverage when they finally land back in their home country. But if the job opportunities are largely reduced by the tightening of immigration policy, I expect there will be a decline. And if that happens, it is the American economy that will suffer from the loss of those educated，hardworking and talented immigrants.‎ 语篇解读：本文为一篇记叙文。作者通过讲述自己和一名在纽约求学的中国大学生的交流过程意识到总统特朗普收紧移民政策使得中国学生在美国择业遇到困难，同时也会使美国经济遭受很大损失。‎ ‎8．The author felt frustrated because ________.‎ A．he was not interested in the talk B．he didn't fulfill his career dreams C．he couldn't provide helpful advice D．he thought the student was useless ‎[解析]　细节理解题。根据第一段第三句可知，作者之所以感到沮丧是因为他不能给那个中国大学生提供有益的建议，故答案为C项。‎ ‎[答案]　C ‎9．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?‎ A．The lottery system for HIB working visa is too tough.‎ B．Chinese students have no choice but to return to China.‎ C．President Trump is tightening up the immigration policies.‎ D．More and more students are applying for the working visa.‎ ‎[解析]　细节理解题。第二段与A项相对应，故排除A项；第三段第一、二句与C项相对应，故排除C项；第二段中的“the ever growing number of applicants”与D项相对应，故排除D项；只有B项(中国学生别无选择只得回中国)在文中未被提及，故为答案。‎ ‎[答案]　B ‎10．What does the word “leverage” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?‎ A．Advantage. B．Language.‎ C．Ability. D．Education.‎ ‎[解析]　词义猜测题。根据第五段第一句(这并不是说在美国的中国学生对这里的工作机会不再感兴趣)可知leverage的意思是“优势”，故答案为A项。‎ ‎[答案]　A ‎11．What is the author's attitude to the tightening of immigration policy?‎ A．Doubtful. B．Supportive.‎ C．Indifferent. D．Worried.‎ ‎[解析]‎ 9‎ ‎　观点态度题。根据最后一段最后一句可推知作者对收紧的移民政策感到担心，故答案为D项。doubtful“怀疑的”；supportive“支持的”；indifferent“漠不关心的”。‎ ‎[答案]　D D ‎(2018·河南南阳期中)Eating spicy foods frequently may be tied to a slightly lower risk of an earlier death，according to a new study. However，more research is needed to confirm the link, experts say.‎ The researchers found that the people in the study who ate spicy foods one or two days a week were 10 percent less likely to die during the study, compared with those who ate spicy foods less than once a week, according to the study published in the journal The BMJ. Moreover, the people in the study who ate spicy foods three or more days a week were 14 percent less likely to die during the study, compared with those who ate spicy foods less than once a week.‎ However，the study was observational，and so it is too early to tell whether there is a certain relationship between eating spicy foods and lower mortality,_said study author Lu Qi，an associate professor at Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, Massachusetts. “We definitely need more data from other populations，” Qi told Live Science. “The researchers don't know why exactly the consumption of spicy foods may be linked to the drop of early death，but previous research on cells and animals has suggested several possible connections，” Qi said.‎ ‎“It is unclear whether the observed associations are the direct result of spicy foods intake, or whether spicy foods are simply a marker for other beneficial but unmeasured dietary components(成分)，” said Nita Forouhi, a nutritional expert. At this point, researchers don't know for sure whether eating spicy foods can have a beneficial effect on human health and mortality, Forouhi wrote. “Future research is needed to make sure whether spicy food consumption has the potential to improve health and reduce mortality directly，or if it is merely a marker of other dietary and lifestyle factors，” she said.‎ 语篇解读：这是一篇科普类说明文。主要讲了新的研究发现经常吃辛辣食品可能有助于降低死亡率。‎ ‎12．Which section of a newspaper is the article probably taken from?‎ A．Advertisement. B．Business.‎ C．Science. D．Education.‎ ‎[解析]　文章出处题。这篇文章主要讲了新的研究发现经常吃辛辣食品可能有助于降低死亡率，所以这篇文章最可能出现在报纸的科学板块。故选C。‎ 9‎ ‎[答案]　C ‎13．What does the underlined word “mortality” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?‎ A．Death rate. B．Living cost.‎ C．Physical suffering. D．Energy requirement.‎ ‎[解析]　词义猜测题。由第二段研究结果可知，经常吃辛辣食品的人比不经常吃的人死亡的可能性要小。也就是说研究的是吃辛辣食品和死亡率的关系。由此可猜测出“mortality”的意思是“死亡率”。故选A。‎ ‎[答案]　A ‎14．What does the passage mainly tell us?‎ A．Link between food and health.‎ B．Association between a certain food and health.‎ C．Connection between habits and health.‎ D．Relation between food and health.‎ ‎[解析]　主旨大意题。这篇文章主要讲了新的研究发现经常吃辛辣食品可能有助于降低死亡率，也就是讲了特定食物和健康之间的关系。故选B。‎ ‎[答案]　B ‎15．What's the writer's attitude towards eating spicy foods frequently?‎ A．Negative. B．Positive.‎ C．Doubtful. D．Objective.‎ ‎[解析]　观点态度题。作者只是客观地描述了研究结果和科学家的观点，并没有表明自己的想法。故选D。‎ ‎[答案]　D Ⅱ.七选五阅读填空 ‎(2018·甘肃兰州一中月考)Many of us deal with the rush every morning in preparation for work or school，but it doesn't have to be this way.With a little time management，these steps can help you cut down on your morning stress.‎ Create an evening preparation routine.‎ ‎__1__ These simple tasks will take you less than 30 minutes to complete each evening and will save you a huge headache every morning.‎ Get a good night's sleep.‎ Make sure you start winding down for bed at a reasonable hour to allow enough time for a healthy night's sleep.__2__ If needed，set a bedtime reminder alarm on your alarm clock.Always keep the temperature in your bedroom comfortably cool.‎ ‎__3__‎ 9‎ An extra 30 minutes in the morning will make a difference.As long as you go to bed on time，waking up 30 minutes earlier should seem natural after just a few days.Use this time to think，shower and eat breakfast.‎ Plan a realistic day.‎ Writing things down means you don't have to worry about forgetting to do them.__4__ Write down anything that cannot be put off to the following day.‎ ‎__5__‎ Getting up to face a new day is far more satisfying when you have something to look forward to.Make sure you manage your time better so that you have time to do something you love on a daily basis.‎ A．Morning stress is very common.‎ B．Schedule something you love daily.‎ C．Never fill your mind with unnecessary worries.‎ D．Make a summary of what you did in the daytime.‎ E．Wake up 30 minutes earlier.‎ F．Iron your clothes，locate your keys，plan a nutritious breakfast，etc.‎ G．Most people require seven to eight hours' sleep each night.‎ 语篇解读：每天早上，我们都匆忙赶去上班或上学，但合理安排时间可以缓解早晨的压力。‎ ‎1．[解析]　根据空后的“These simple tasks will take you less than 30 minutes”可知，这些小事情花费你不到30分钟的时间，那么空处应提到生活中的一些小事，故选F，意思是“熨衣服，找钥匙，计划一份营养早餐等”。‎ ‎[答案]　F ‎2．[解析]　根据此段的标题“Get a good night's sleep”可知，晚上要休息好，那么下文就会探讨每晚睡多长时间是合适的，故选G，意思是“大多数人每晚需要7到8个小时的睡眠”。‎ ‎[答案]　G ‎3．[解析]　根据此段中的“An extra 30 minutes in the morning will make a difference”可知，早上额外的30分钟会产生一定的影响，那么此段谈论的应该是早上要早起，故选E，意思是“早上早起30分钟”。‎ ‎[答案]　E ‎4．[解析]　根据空前的“Writing things down means you don't have to worry about forgetting to do them”可知，写下这些事情意味着你不必担心会忘了做它们，那么文章接下来应该说不要把一些不必要的担心装在大脑中，故选C。‎ 9‎ ‎[答案]　C ‎5．[解析]　根据此段中的“Make sure you manage your time better so that you have time to do something you love on a daily basis”可知，管理好你的时间以便你每天都有时间去做一些自己喜欢的事情，故选B，意思是“每天安排点儿你喜欢做的事”。‎ ‎[答案]　B 9‎
