Cool inventions
Powerful snowmobile
With this turbocharged(涡轮増压的) snowmobile, getting over snow and ice will be snow problem. The snow Crawler snowmobile is designed with two skis under its front end. Below its back end is a pair of tracks, or rubber belts around a set of wheels. Inside it's heated, so jump inside, start up the engine, and listen as the wheels start to turn the tracks. Each track is designed to grip (抓住)slippery surfaces easily, allowing the snow-mobile to move over them without difficulty. Let it snow!
Floating furniture
It's easy to fall asleep in the special bed. This comfortable sleeping place features a plastic, water-filled mattress (气垫)that's designed to adapt to the shape of the person lying on it. Simply kick
off your shoes and climb onto the bed. As you lie there, the mattress will hug your body. Meanwhile, the water in the mattress will gently rock you from side to side. It is a similar feeling to floating on your back in a pool. The mattress even heats up to make you extra comfortable. Now that is a dream bed.
Smart insoles(鞋垫)
This might take shoes in a new direction. The Lechal company has created shoes insoles that "tell" wearers how to get from one place to another. How do they work? Put the insoles into your shoes. The insoles are built to vibrate(振动). They are also connected wirelessly to your smartphone. Pull up the Lechal app on your phone and type your destination. The app uses GPS to map out the quickest path for you to walk. Every time you need to take a left or right the app signals the correct insole to vibrate so you know which direction to turn. That's amazing.

B
Both of Omar's parents were poets. For as long as Omar could remember, his parents spent at least one evening each week at a poetry reading, which usually took place at a small coffee house.
Omar had very fond memories of the coffee house on Sixth Street where the people's personalities were as colorful as the coffee cups. He loved going to early evening poetry readings at Cody's Coffee Shop. He would sit in the audience next to his parents, the smell of coffee floating through the air and the gentle voices of the poets removing his childish worries with the rhythm of their poems.
There was one woman who came to Cody's every week just as his parents did. Her name was Mrs. Aboud. She never read, but she had a bright smile for everyone, and she would clap (手) loudly after each reading.
Eventually, Omar began writing his own poetry. Mrs. Francis, Omar's English teacher, advised him to enter a poetry contest ( 比赛). At first Omar was proud and excited. However, when he read the contest rules, he became concerned. The contest was an oral(口头的) reading. Omar had no doubt that he could write high-quality poetry, but he was a very shy young man. He doubted that he could stand in front of a large group to read his poems calmly.
“It would make me very proud”, his father said, and Omar knew that he had to go through with it somehow.
So on the day of the contest, he selected his favorite poem, put on his best clothes, and appeared at the auditorium (会堂).
When he stepped onto the stage, though, something wonderful happened! There in the audience, right beside his parents, was Mrs. Aboud. Omar could almost smell the coffee at Cody's Coffee Shop. He focused on his parents and Mrs. Aboud and tuned out everyone else. Now it was easy to read his poem in a clear, calm voice. When he finished, everyone in the auditorium applauded.
4. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. Poetry B. A coffee house
C. Omar's parents D. Omar's worries
5. Which word best describes Mrs. Aboud?
A. Clever. B. Patient
C. Creative D. Supportive.
6. Why did Omar feel that he had to enter the contest?
A. He wanted to win a prize.
B. He wanted to face his fears.
C. He wanted to please his teacher.
D. He wanted to surprise his father.
7. The underlined phrase “tuned out” in the last paragraph can be replaced by______.
A. ignored B. attracted
C. forgot D. impressed
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了主人公奥马尔从小接受了诗歌的熏陶,经常被父母带到一家咖啡馆参加朗读会。有一次被老师鼓励参加诗歌朗诵比赛,克服自己的畏惧心理,并且在一位熟人“Mrs. Aboud”的支持下顺利完成了这个比赛。
【4题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段出现的高频词汇“the coffee shop”,可知本段主要介绍了这个作者和父母经常参加诗歌朗读会的咖啡馆。故选B项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段末尾句内容“She never read, but she had a bright smile for everyone, and she would clap loudly after each reading. (她从不读书,但她对每个人都有灿烂的笑容,每次读书后都会大声鼓掌)”可知她在读书会上是一个积极的支持者。选项D:Supportive. (支持的) 描述正确。故选D项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段末尾内容和第五段内容“Omar had no doubt that he could write high-quality poetry, but he was a very shy young man. He doubted that he could stand in front of a large group to read his poems calmly. "It would make me very proud", his father said, and Omar knew that he had to go through with it somehow. (奥马尔毫无疑问可以写出高质量的诗歌,但他是个非常害羞的年轻人。他怀疑自己能否站在一大群人面前平静地读他的诗。“这会让我非常自豪,”他的父亲说,奥马尔知道他必须以某种方式挺过去)”可知,他选择参加诗朗诵比赛的原因是要克服自己对于在众人面前朗诵诗歌的恐惧心理,且父亲再次强调克服恐惧在一大群人面前朗读是令他骄傲的事情。故选B项。
【7题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线短语之前的并列连词and可知,此处为动作的顺承关系。且前文提及“There in the audience, right beside his parents, was Mrs. Aboud. Omar could almost smell the coffee at Cody's Coffee Shop. He focused on his parents and Mrs. Aboud (观众席上,就在他父母的旁边,是阿武德太太。奥马尔几乎能闻到科迪咖啡店里的咖啡味。他把注意力集中在他的父母和阿布德太太身上)”可知,这种情景使他感受到像在咖啡馆里一样的自在,只专注在父母和阿布德太太身上,而忽略了在场其他的人。因此,此处的tuned out 可以理解为“忽略;忽视”含义,与选项A表达含义一致。故选A项。
【点睛】猜测词意题
猜词的活动是阅读中经常遇到的,阅读理解题目中的作为干扰项出现的错误选项,一般多是学生比较熟悉、想当然的词典意义,或者适应学生习惯的汉语思维方式;而正确的含义往往不只是词典上的,而是要通过上下文内容的提示才能确定的。尤其注意连接词及被猜测的词前后的因果,让步,递进,转折,列举及承上启下等各种连接上下文的特殊功能。比如文章第4小题:
4. The underlined phrase “tuned out” in the last paragraph can be replaced by______.
A. ignored B. attracted
C. forgot D. impressed
在原句“He focused on his parents and Mrs. Aboud and tuned out everyone else.“中,可以注意到一个并列连词and的存在,说明前后文为并列顺承关系。结合前文提及他集中精力看着父母和Mrs. Aboud,那么自然会忽略(ignore)周遭的其他人, 由此我们推测出“tuned out”是ignored。故答案为A项。
C
Imagine this scene: it’s blowing outside, and you snuggle (蜷伏) up on the sofa under a warm quilt, chatting and recalling with your closest friends.
That content, cosy feeling has a name in Danish —hygge. And, as Denmark recently won the title of “the happiest country in the world”, the concept of hygge is known to more and more people interested in finding ways to understand this concept.
Hygge —originally from a Norwegian word meaning well-being — doesn’t have an exact equivalent (等同物) in English. It’s often translated as coziness, or as blogger Anna West told the BBC, “coziness of the soul”. But, as professor Maren Spark explains, “Hygge was never meant to be
translated. It was meant to be felt.”
Basically, hygge involves creating a warm, cosy atmosphere and enjoying it with your loved ones. Danish winters are long and dark and so achieving hygge is particularly relevant during this season. A typical Hygge activity during winter could be enjoying delicious homemade food and light-hearted conversation with friends —preferably in the warm glow of candlelight, or maybe sipping a glass of wine in the hot tub after a day spent skiing.
However, hygge isn’t only limited to the cold winter months —it can also describe that warm, fuzzy feeling you get after a walk through a forest with friends on summer’s day or a family barbecue in the park. Hygge is meant to be shared.
8. The author asks the readers to imagine the scene in the first paragraph to_________ .
A. help the readers to calm down
B. introduce the topic of the passage
C. present the main idea of the passage
D. remind the readers of their past memories
9. What do the underlined words by Maren Spark mean?
A. The translation of the word “hygge” is not good enough.
B. Only Danish speakers know what “hygge” means.
C. “Hygge” is easy to translate but hard to feel.
D. We can get the true meaning of “hygge” by feeling it.
10. Which of the following can be best described as a “hygge” activity?
A. Skiing in the cold winter months.
B Living through long dark winters.
C. Taking afternoon tea with friends.
D. Walking alone in the forest.
11. The author writes this passage to_________.
A. explain
B. persuade
C. comment
D. advertise
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章通过举例说明丹麦语hygge的意思,并且表明Hygge只可意会不可言传,需要用心去感受。
【8题详解】
写作意图题。根据文章第一段Imagine this scene: it’s blowing outside, and you snuggle (蜷伏) up on the sofa under a warm quilt, chatting and recalling with your closest friends.作者描写这样惬意舒服的场景是为了引出文章的话题Hygge,选B。
【9题详解】
句意理解题。根据文章第三段doesn’t have an exact equivalent (等同物) in English.可知“Hygge was never meant to be translated. It was meant to be felt.”的意思是Hygge只可意会不可言传,选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段Basically, hygge involves creating a warm, cosy atmosphere and enjoying it with your loved ones.可知Hygge意味着舒适和分享,和朋友一起喝下午茶最符合这个意境,选C。
【11题详解】
写作意图题。文章通过举例说明丹麦语hygge的意思,并且表明Hygge只可意会不可言传,需要用心去感受。所以作者写这篇文章的目的是为了解释,选A。
D
Parents usually teach their children how to cross the street safely, by looking both ways for cars. But do they also teach them to put away their cell phones?
The city of Honolulu, Hawaii wants everyone to learn that lesson. Texting while crossing the street will soon be banned in the city. Beginning on October 24, you could be fined from $15 to $99 if you step onto a Honolulu street while looking at your phone. Honolulu is the first major U. S. city to ban what is called "distracted walking". It recently passed a law in a seven-to-two vote. The law says: "No pedestrian shall cross a street or highway while viewing a mobile electronic device(装置).” In other words, do not look at a screen when you cross the street or you could be fined.
The law's creators hope it will lower the number of people hit and killed by cars in the city. Mayor Kirk Caldwell told Reuters news agency, "We hold the unfortunate distinction of being a major city with more pedestrians being hit in crosswalks, particularly our seniors, than that of almost any other
cities in the country."
The law includes all electronic devices with screens:cell phones, tablets, gaming devices, digital cameras and laptop computers. The law does permit an exception. Pedestrians may use such devices in the street to call emergency services and rescue workers, such as firefighters and police officers.
Pedestrian deaths have been increasing as the use of cell phones rises. The Governors Highway Safety Association, or GHSA, says pedestrian deaths in the United States increased by 25 percent between 2010 and 2015. That trend continued in 2016 with the number of pedestrian deaths rising to almost 6,000, 11% higher than that in 2015. Other U. S. cities may follow Honolulu. The State of Washington was the first to outlaw distracted driving back in 2007. Now, 46 other states as well as D. C, Puerto Rico, Guam and the U. S. Virgin Islands, also have laws against texting while driving.
12. What's the passage mainly about?
A. Honolulu will ban distracted walking.
B. Texting while walking draws public attention
C. More cities in the U. S. will ban texting while driving.
D. The number of people killed by cars in Honolulu is increasing.
13. In what case can people use electric devices in Honolulu streets?
A. Walking with police officers.
B. Making urgent calls.
C. Helping rescue workers.
D. Texting to consult about emergency services.
14. What does the author convey in Paragraph 5?
A. Texting while walking should be banned quickly.
B. Distracted walking caused a severe problem in Honolulu.
C. Cell phones led to more and more pedestrian deaths in the U. S.
D. Pedestrian deaths were caused by texting while walking.
15. Which U. S. state was the first to ban texting while driving?
A. Hawaii B. Washington
C. Puerto Rico D. Guam
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. B
【解析】
这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了由于在过马路过程中使用手机等造成了行人死亡率的增长,夏威夷立法禁止过马路玩手机。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章结构为总分结构,可知第一段为本文的中心主旨段落“Parents usually teach their children how to cross the street safely, by looking both ways for cars. But do they also teach them to put away their cell phones? The city of Honolulu, Hawaii wants everyone to learn that lesson. (父母通常教他们的孩子如何安全地过马路,方法是看两边有没有车。但是他们也教孩子们把手机收起来吗? 夏威夷火奴鲁鲁市希望每个人都能吸取这一教训)”可知,本文主要讲述了一项在Honolulu实施的关于过马路时禁止看手机的规定。选项A : Honolulu will ban distracted walking. (Honolulu将禁止走路时分心) 概括了这一主旨。故选A项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段末句内容“Pedestrians may use such devices in the street to call emergency services and rescue workers, such as firefighters and police officers. (行人可以在街上使用这类设备呼叫紧急服务和救援人员,如消防员和警察)”可知,行人在紧急求救时可以使用这些电子设备。故选B项。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段结构为总分结构,因此第1句点明主旨“Pedestrian deaths have been increasing as the use of cell phones rises. (随着手机使用量的增加,行人死亡人数也在增加)”可知本段主要讲述了由于行人使用手机而导致了死亡率的增高,而后文主要进行了举例论证。故选C项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章末段内容“The State of Washington was the first to outlaw distracted driving back in 2007. (华盛顿州是2007年第一个取缔分心驾驶的州)”可知,华盛顿是第一个对开车时发短信发布禁令的州。故选B项。

第五部分 写作(共两节,满分30分)
第一节:短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
61.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词。

注意:1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;
2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。
One day, little Tony went to a shopping center with his parent. It was very crowded. Tony saw a toy on a shop window. He liked it so very much that he quickly walked into the shop. After looks at the toy for some time, he turned around and found where his parents were missing. Tony was scared and begun to cry. A woman saw him crying and telling him to wait outside a shop. Five minutes later, Tony saw parents. Mom said, “How nice to see you again! Dad and I were terrible worried.” Tony promised her that this would never happen again.
【答案】1. parent → parents
2. on → in
3. 删去 very
4. looks → looking
5. where → that 或去掉 where
6. begun → began
7. telling → told
8. a → the
9. saw 后加 his
10. terrible → terribly
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇记叙文。小托尼与父母去购物中心,看到了一个喜欢的玩具,走丢了,在一位女士的帮助下,小托尼又见到了自己的父母。
【详解】第一处:考查名词单复数。根据下文可知,Tony是和父母一起逛街。故要使用复数形式。故将parent改为parents。
第二处:考查介词。in表示“在……里面”,根据语境可以看出,玩具是在橱窗里放着的,故把on改为in。
第三处:考查句法结构。该句子里有一个句法so…that...,表示“如此……以至于……”,so修饰much,very在这里是多余的,故去掉very。
第四处:考查非谓语动词。这里的look的实际主语是he且两者之间的关系是主动,这里的用looking表示的句子是伴随状语。故把looks改为looking。
第五处:考查连接词辨析。该句子是一个宾语从句,且不缺少任何成分,意思也完整,所以连接词应该使用that或者省略that。故将where改为that或去掉where。
第六处:考查时态用法。begin的过去式是began,过去分词是begun。该句子的时态是过去式,所以使用began。故将begun改为began。
第七处:考查动词时态。这里telling与saw是由连词and连接且表示并列发生的两个动作,其动作的发出者是a woman且时态是发生在过去,故把telling改为told。
第八处:考查冠词辨析。这里用the表示特指的那个商店。故将a改为the。
第九处:考查人称代词。名词前要有修饰语,根据是Tony的父母,所以前面要加his。
第十处:考查形容词与副词辨析。这里用副词terribly修饰形容词worried,故terrible改为
terribly。
【点睛】以第七题为例,原句“A woman saw him crying and telling him to wait outside a shop”,该句首先要判断出crying与telling并不是并列关系,him是saw的宾语,如果是并列关系,him不可能再作telling的宾语,所以判断tell是与saw并列,主语是A woman,根据saw可知道是发生在过去的事情,所以要把telling改为told。
第二节:书面表达(满分20分)
62.假如你是李华,你校英语角准备举办一次文化艺术节(the Festival of Arts and Culture), 主办人Robert针对本次艺术节向学生们征求意见。请你用英语给他写一封信, 谈谈对此次活动的看法及建议。
注意: 词数120左右
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Dear Robert,
I am glad to hear that our English Corner is going to hold the Festival of Arts and Culture. We have been looking forward to it for a long time, as it is a great chance to broaden our views and enrich our school life.
In my opinion, you’d better arrange for all the students’ arts and culture clubs to advertise their own activities through posters. Then the students can choose whatever activity they wish to join in. What’s more, I think it is necessary to prepare a large enough room to hold this festival. The number of participants will be so large that the classroom won’t be able to hold all of them. Last but not least, safety should be taken into consideration in case an emergency occurs.
I hope you will find these suggestions helpful.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
