A
Olympic National Park, with its temperate rainforests and breath-taking views, exerts a natural pull on many Pacific Northwestemers. But Seattle writer Rosette Royale found it repellent. To Royale, the park seemed like a damp, dirty and unpleasant place. “I couldn’t figure out why anyone would want to carry a 50-pound pack into the wilderness and camp there for days,” he said. “It didn’t make sense.”
Then he met Bryant Carlin, a vendor (小贩) for Real Change, the Seattle weekly sold on the street by vendors who are homeless or low-wage earners. He was also a skilled outdoorsman and a nature photographer who would take weeks-long photographic journeys to the park. The two men connected in the fall of 2011 when Royale interviewed Carlin for a feature story in Real Change about Carlin’s photography.
That first time they met—and for years afterward—Carlin invited Royale to go camping with him. Each time, Royale said “Thanks, but no thanks.” Until one day, in the spring of 2015, Royale surprised himself by saying yes. “Little did I know,” said Royale, “that saying ‘yes’ would change the course of my life.”
Royale and Carlin went on five separate journeys to the Olympic wilderness. They camped in spring, summer, fall and winter. For Royale, the trips were exhausting and terrifying. But the trips were also inspiring, and helped Royale—a black, strange man—to develop a relationship with the outdoors that he had never experienced before.
For Carlin, the trips were an opportunity to throw off the label of “homeless”. In Olympic National Park, sleeping outside just means you’re a camper. But there was one aspect of Carlin’s life in the city that he couldn’t escape: alcohol abuse. While he never brought beer on their camping journeys, the effects of years of drinking weren’t so easy to leave behind.
1. What does the underlined word “repellent” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Appealing. B. Puzzling.
C. Rewarding. D. Disgusting.
2. According to Royale, what made his life course changed?
A. His first meeting with Carlin. B. His rejection of Carlin’s invitation.
C. His camping trips with Carlin. D. His reading of Carlin’s feature story.
3. What did the trips with Royale mean to Carlin?
A. They improved his photography skills.
B. They helped him feel a sense of belonging.
C. They deepened his relationship with nature.
D. They enabled him to get rid of alcohol addiction.
【答案】1. D 2. C 3. B

Recently, as the British doctor Robert Winston took a train from London to Manchester, he found himself having to listen to a loud conversation of a fellow passenger woman. Boiling with anger, Winston took her picture and sent it to his more than 40,000 followers on the Tweet. By the time the train reached the station in Manchester, some journalists were waiting for the woman. And when they showed her the doctor's messages, she used just one word to describe Winston's actions: rude.
Winston's tale is a good example of increasing rudeness, fueled by social media in our age. Studies show that rudeness spreads quickly and virally, almost like the common cold. Just witnessing rudeness makes it far more likely that we, in turn, will be rude later on. Once infected, we are more aggressive, less creative and worse at our jobs. The only way out is to make a conscious decision to do so. We must have the courage to call it out, face to face. We must say, "Just stop." For Winston, that would have meant approaching the woman, telling her that her conversation was frustrating other passengers and politely asking her to speak more quietly or make the call at another time.
The anger we feel at the rude behavior of a stranger can drive us to do out-of-place things. Research discovered that the acts of revenge (报复) people had taken ranged from the ridiculous to the disturbing. Winston did shine a spotlight on the woman's behavior—but in a way that shamed her.
When we see rudeness occur in public places, we must step up and say something. And we can do it with grace, by handling it without a bit of aggression and without being rude ourselves. Because once rude people can see their actions through the eyes of others, they are far more likely to end the rudeness themselves. As this wave of rudeness rises, civilization needs civility (举止文明).
4. Robert Winston’s reaction to the woman’ behavior at the train can be described as ________.
A. a way of returning good for evil B. an answer to the call of the journalists
C. a good example of stopping rudeness D. an act of answering rudeness with rudeness
5. Being infected with rudeness can possibly lead to ________.
A. wiser decisions B. more frustrated passengers
C. poorer work performance D. more face-to-face communication
6. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. What to say to a rude person. B. Civilization Calls for Civility.
C. How to Fix Rudeness Spread Online D. Rude Behavior Makes a Rude Man
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A
【分析】
这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章主要讲了当我们看到在公共场所发生粗鲁行为时,我们该说些什么。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段Boiling with anger, Winston took her picture and sent it to his more than 40,000 followers on the Tweet.(温斯顿怒火中烧,拍下了她的照片,并发送给他在推特上的4万多名粉丝。)和And when they showed her the doctor's messages, she used just one word to describe Winston's actions: rude.(当他们给她看医生的留言时,她只用一个词来形容温斯顿的行为:粗鲁。)推断出,罗伯特·温斯顿对这名女子在火车上的行为的反应,可以说是以粗鲁回应粗鲁。故选D。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段Once infected, we are more aggressive, less creative and worse at our jobs.(一旦被感染,我们会变得更有攻击性,创造力更差,工作表现也更差。)可知,被无礼行为感染可能会导致工作表现不佳。故选C。
【6题详解】
主旨大意题。最后一段When we see rudeness occur in public places, we must step up and say something. And we can do it with grace, by handling it without a bit of aggression and without being rude ourselves.(当我们看到在公共场所发生粗鲁行为时,我们必须站出来说点什么。我们可以优雅地处理它,不带一点攻击性,也不粗鲁地对待自己。)是全文的主题句,结合全文内容,可知这篇文章主要讲了当我们看到在公共场所发生粗鲁行为时,我们该说些什么。A选项“对粗鲁的人说什么”是最合适的题目,故选A。
【点睛】细节理解题大多是根据文章中的具体信息如事实、例证、原因、过程、论述等进行提问的。抓住文段中的事实和细节是做好该题型的关键,也是做好其它类型问题的基础。该题型几乎都可以在文章中直接找到与答案
有关的信息,或是其变体。在一篇短文里大部分篇幅都属于这类围绕主体展开的细节。做这类题一般采用寻读法,即先读题,然后带着问题快速阅读短文,找出与问题和选项有关的词语或句子,再对相关部分进行分析对比,找出答案。正确选项虽然一般不是原文照搬,但是一般是原文的改写,意思不变。如换一个同义词,把否定改为肯定,把肯定改为否定等。如第2小题,根据第二段Once infected, we are more aggressive, less creative and worse at our jobs.(一旦被感染,我们会变得更有攻击性,创造力更差,工作表现也更差。)由此可知,被无礼行为感染可能会导致工作表现不佳。故选C。
C
California has been facing droughts for many years, with certain areas even having to pump freshwater hundreds of miles to their distribution system. The problem is growing as the population of the state continues to expand. New research has found deep water reserves under the state which could help solve their drought crisis. Previous drilling of wells could only reach depths of 1,000 feet, but due to new pumping practices, water deeper than this can now be extracted (抽取). The team at Stanford investigated the aquifers (地下蓄水层) below this depth and found that reserves may be three times what was previously thought.
It is profitable to drill to depths more than 1,000 feet for oil and gas, but only recently in California has it become profitable to pump water from this depth. The aquifers range from 1,000 to 3,000 feet below the ground, which means that pumping will be expensive and there are other concerns. The biggest concern is the gradual setting down of the land surface. As the water is pumped out, the vacant space left is pressed by the weight of the earth above.
Even though pumping from these depths is expensive, it is still cheaper than desalinating (脱盐) the ocean water in the largely coastal state. Some desalination plants exist where possible, but they are costly to run and can need constant repairs. Wells are much more reliable sources of freshwater, and California is hoping that these deep wells may be the answer to their severe water shortage.
One problem with these sources is that the deep water also has a higher level of salt than shallower aquifers. This means that some water may even need to be desalinated after extraction, thus increasing the cost. Research from the study of groundwater has just been published. New estimates of the water reserves now go up to 2,700 billion cubic meters of freshwater.
7. According to the text, what causes the water crisis in California?
A Previous drilling of wells. B. The messy distribution system.
C. Constant droughts in the area. D. The adoption of new pumping practices.
8. The research teams think it ________ to extract water from deeper aquifers.
A. expensive but practical B. reliable and profitable
C. cost-free but demanding D. cheap and environment-friendly
9. What is mentioned as a consequence of extracting water from deep underground?
A. The damage to aquifers. B. The sinking of land surface.
C. The decrease in operation costs. D. The negative effects on the climate.
10. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To encourage people to save water.
B. To promote the seawater desalination.
C. To introduce a new way of extracting freshwater.
D. To draw people’s attention to the droughts in California.
【答案】7. C 8. A 9. B 10. C
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了新的研究发现,加州的深层水储备可能有助于解决它们的干旱危机,作者介绍了一种提取淡水的新方法。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段California has been facing droughts for many years, with certain areas even having to pump freshwater hundreds of miles to their distribution system.(加州多年来一直面临干旱,某些地区甚至不得不向数百英里外的分配系统输送淡水)可知,该地区持续的干旱导致了加州的水危机。故选C。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段Even though pumping from these depths is expensive, it is still cheaper than desalinating (脱盐) the ocean water in the largely coastal state. Some desalination plants exist where possible, but they are costly to run and can need constant repairs. Wells are much more reliable sources of freshwater, and California is hoping that these deep wells may be the answer to their severe water shortage.(尽管从这样的深度抽水很昂贵,但它仍然比在这个以沿海为主的州淡化海水便宜。一些海水淡化厂在可能的地方存在,但它们的运营成本很高,需要经常维修。水井是更可靠的淡水来源,加州希望这些深井能解决严重的水资源短缺问题)推断出,研究小组认为从深层含水层中提取水是昂贵但实用的。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段The biggest concern is the gradual setting down of the land surface.
(最大的问题是地面的逐渐下沉)可知,从地下深处取水的结果是地表下沉。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段Previous drilling of wells could only reach depths of 1,000 feet, but due to new pumping practices, water deeper than this can now be extracted (抽取). The team at Stanford investigated the aquifers (地下蓄水层) below this depth and found that reserves may be three times what was previously thought.(以前的钻井只能达到1000英尺的深度,但由于新的抽水方法,现在可以提取比这更深的水。斯坦福大学的研究小组调查了低于这个深度的含水层,发现储量可能是之前设想的三倍)可推知,作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍一种提取淡水的新方法。故选C。

这是一篇议论文。文章介绍了微信给人们带来方便的同时,也存在着一些弊端。
【36题详解】
考查形容词。句意:随着现代技术的发展,人们可以很容易地与家人和朋友保持联系,不管他们相距多远。系动词stay后,用形容词connected“有联系的”,stay connected with“与……保持联系”。故填connected。
【37题详解】
考查副词。句意:微信是中国最常用的交流方式之一。修饰形容词used,用副词。
故填frequently。
【38题详解】
考查时态及主谓一致。句意:据报道,到目前为止,微信的用户数量已经超过11亿。so far做时间状语时,应使用现在完成时,the number of做主语时,谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式。故填has reached。
【39题详解】
考查介词。句意:一旦加入微信,人们可以发现越来越多的人开始添加他们作为朋友。根据句意,此处使用介词as表示“作为”。故填as。
【40题详解】
考查名词单复数。句意:他们在交流时不需要考虑时区。“时区”是复数意义,前面没有冠词,应用名词复数形式。故填zones。
【41题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:人们可以很方便地通过微信立即更新他们正在做的事情。____41____ they are doing by WeChat是一个宾语从句,引导词在从句中做doing宾语,表“正在做的事情”,应使用what引导。故填what。
【42题详解】
考查语态。句意:然而,沉迷于微信将会剥夺人们原本应该花在更重要事情上的时间。“时间”和“花费”之间是被动关系,用被动语态,由空前should可知,此处be动词使用原形。故填be spent。
【43题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:而许多所谓朋友根本不是真正的朋友,他们只是想在朋友圈里放广告或卖东西。固定短语:want to do sth. “想要做某事”。故填to put。
【44题详解】
考查反身代词。句意:此外,在微信上的人更有可能自己与他人比较,这将使他们当发现一些人似乎更成功,感觉难过。文中表示“人们自己与他人比较”,用反身代词。故填themselves。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意:此外,在微信上的人更有可能自己与他人比较,这将使他们当发现一些人似乎更成功,感觉难过。be
后,用形容词作表语,根据语境此处可以使用形容词原级或比较级。故填(more) successful。

【答案】Dear Steve,
I’m delighted to learn that you’ve been admitted into the Confucius Institute. Congratulations! Here, I’d like to share how to get prepared for the coming study there.
First, you need to enlarge your Chinese vocabulary, thus potentially helping you better fit into the class. Also, some knowledge of Confucius will surely help you catch a glimpse of his thoughts and ideas, which are deeply rooted in the Chinese culture but quite different from what you hold.
I hope you’ll harvest a lot in the Confucius Institute and hopefully be a man with a global vision. May everything go well with you!
Yours,
Li Hua

第二节:概要写作(满分25分)
47.阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Is the traditional family dinner a thing of the past? In today’s households where both parents go to work and kids have busy schedules with school, an array of afternoon activities and much homework, finding time for a gathering at the table seems impossible. Yet, studies have shown time and again that eating together has multiple benefits for family members, especially children.
According to a number of reports issued by the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University, children who eat at least five times a week with their family are at lower risk of developing poor eating habits, weight problems or alcohol dependencies, and tend to perform better academically than their peers who frequently eat alone or away from home.
Eating together as a family is not just about food and nutrition. “Food has become so easily and cheaply available that we no longer appreciate its significance,” says Professor Robin Fox, who teaches anthropology at Rutgers University in New Jersey. "We have to rediscover its importance and its value." Sharing a meal with loved ones should be considered a special event, which can almost take on the form of a ceremony, as it was practiced by our ancestors, for whom finding food was a constant struggle.
Besides appreciation for the value of food, there are also many social elements that come into play when families share meals, says Miriam Weinstein, author of The Surprising Power of Family Meals. The dinner table can be the perfect environment where kids learn how to conduct conversations, observe good manners, serve others, listen, solve conflicts and compromise.
Of course, there is no guarantee that the simple act of eating at home surrounded by family will save children from developing unhealthy lifestyles or making regrettable choices down the road. It may not make them more virtuous (品行端正的) or socially more responsible. But it can form a basis for a lot of things that point them in the right direction.
