I need to help them.”‎ Sally chewed her lips and looked around the room. “I’m going with you.”‎ The two volunteered at the Washington Hospital. After several months, Clara became unsettled. “Sally, this isn’t enough. I need to help the soldiers in the field and on the front lines. I’m leaving in the morning.”‎ Sally’s brows rose into her forehead. “Sally! You can’t. It’s too dangerous.”‎ ‎“The front line soldiers who need help are in greater danger.”‎ Clara got donations where she could and used her own savings to buy supplies. She traveled from battle to battle with three army wagons. She also organized men to give first aid, carry water, and prepare food for the wounded. ‎ After many months of battlefield after battlefield, Clara told her friend Rachel. “I finally received official permission to bring supplies to battlefields. The wounded soldiers are so appreciative of all I do, they’ve named me the “Angel of the Battlefield.”‎ ‎“That’s wonderful,” said Rachel. “You certainly deserve the recognition. You’re one of the bravest women I know.”‎ After the Civil War ended, Clara went to Europe to rest her body and mind. So many years of helping soldiers and their families had worn her down.‎ While visiting Switzerland, Clara learned of the International Red Cross. Its mission to help war victims around the world aroused Clara’s interest and excitement. It also sparked an idea.‎ When she returned home, Clara worked to establish an American Red Cross. She even met with President Hayes to discuss it. Finally, on May 21, 1881, the American Red Cross was formed. A month later, Clara was elected president of the organization.‎ ‎21. Where did Clara first volunteer to help the Union soldiers?‎ A. Switzerland. B. The Patent Office.‎ C. The front lines. D. The Washington Hospital.‎ ‎22. Which of the following words best describes Clara’s character?‎ A. Fearless and devoted. B. Generous and energetic.‎ C. Humorous and brave. D. Considerate and confident.‎ ‎23. What is the text mainly about?‎ A. The suffering brought by the Civil War.‎ B. The development of the American Red Cross. ‎ C. Women’s contributions to the American peace.‎ D. A great woman who introduced Red Cross into USA.‎ B Tiny as they are, bats have the ability to “see” in the dark by using a special skill called echolocation (回声定位法). They make noises and wait for sound waves, or an echo, to bounce back off objects. They can tell the distance of various objects by how quickly the sound waves bounce back off them. If no sound bounces back, they can then fly forward. ‎ This special ability has been copied in the human world for a long time, such as in submarines and planes. But apart from helping vehicles “see” where they are, what if blind people could use echolocation for themselves? American Daniel Kish, who is blind, is known as “Batman”. This isn’t because he walks around in a cape (披风) and a mask, but because he has a bat-like ability to locate where he is through sharp clicks he makes by moving his tongue against the roof of his mouth. Kish is so skilled at echolocating that he can ride a bike and hike on his own.‎ Recently, a research carried out at the University of Durham in England shed some light on t he power of human echolocation. Kish, as well as other volunteers, worked with a group of scientists who studied the way blind people listen to the echoes that they produce from clicks. The team found that people were capable of hearing even very faint echoes, ones far fainter than had been previously thought. ‎ Lore Thaler, lead scientist of the group, said, “We found that in some conditions, they were really faint-about 95 percent softer than the actual clicks, but the echolocators were still able to sense this.”‎ Andrew Kolarik, another expert in echolocation, told BBC News that echolocation “can be very useful at providing information at face or chest height” and could help people “avoid objects like low hanging branches that might not get detected by the cane or a guide dog”.‎ According to BBC News, echolocation is a skill blind people can acquire and develop, just like learning a language. As Kolarik said, “Teaching echolocation skills could provide blind people with the means of exploring new places.”‎ ‎24. What does “this special ability” in Paragraph 2 refer to? ‎ ‎ A. The ability to make noises in the dark.‎ ‎ B. The ability to bounce back off objects.‎ ‎ C. The ability to measure the distance quickly.‎ ‎ D. The ability to use sound waves to echolocate.‎ ‎25. What do we know about Daniel Kish from the text? ‎ ‎ A. He is fond of riding a bike and hiking alone.‎ ‎ B. He is able to hear echoes he produces from clicks.‎ ‎ C. He is called “Batman” because he looks like a bat.‎ D. He conducted the experiment to circulate echolocation.‎ ‎26. What is Kolarik’s attitude towards the future use of echolocation in blind people? ‎ ‎ A. Ambiguous. B. Hopeful. C. Tolerant. D. Doubtful.‎ ‎27. What’s the best title for the text? ‎ ‎ A. Echolocation in Human World B. A Very Special Batman ‎ C. Finding New Way to “See” D. A Breakthrough in echoing C On some level, offices exist to inspire in-person collaboration. But many of the basic technologies that employees now used to work together often encourage them to work virtually ‎ independent of one another.‎ ‎“They wear their headphones—headphones are the new walls—to signal they are involved in high-concentration work and not available for chat,” says Stowe Boyd, a social critic whose research focuses on the future of work. ‎ Such behavior is indicative of a wider workplace trend. As office-communication technologies have become more advanced, more and more employees are avoiding direct interaction with their co-workers. Experts say this is a shift that is likely to continue. Emerging technologies even suggests a future—perhaps decades away, but maybe sooner—in which offices are populated by employees who engage in virtually no work-focused, face-to-face contact whatsoever.‎ It isn’t to say co-workers won’t connect. Even as employees make the transition to “individual” work, they may begin to communicate in new ways that are as engaging as real-life interactions. Virtual reality, for example, could “hold 3-D meetings around a digital meeting table where employees are not physically in" says Martin Ford, an author who studies artificial intelligence and robots, among other things.‎ What’s the upside of a chat-free future, in which colleagues work together in close physical space but never need to talk person-to-person? For one, it may make work experiences more efficient by stopping gossipy distractions that can get in the way of serious affairs. It also may safeguard employees from physical disturbance, a growing workplace concern, says Jamais Cascio, an author and futurist.‎ But there are possible problems. Virtual environments have the potential to reduce social inhibitions (抑制), which could lead to conflicts. It’s also possible that technology will create a more impersonal atmosphere. Without the water cooler-style chat that can make work life more vibrant—research suggests informal office jokes can boost productivity—office relationships could start to resemble the interactions we have with strangers in public spaces.‎ Eventually, some experts believe, with technologies making their way into offices, humans may remove themselves from the workplace altogether, though not in the sense that they will be replaced by robots, as many have predicted. ‎ ‎28. According to Stowe Boyd, what can be widely seen in workplaces?‎ ‎ A. Technologies are used as a barrier against casual chat.‎ B. Direction interactions are resisted but cannot be avoided.‎ ‎ C. In-person collaboration is the best way to promote efficiency.‎ ‎ D. Face-to-face contact is the guarantee of high-concentration work.‎ ‎29. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?‎ ‎ A. Coworkers prefer to keep closely connected.‎ ‎ B. Employees engage in developing far-away relationships.‎ C. Technologies allow for new forms of office-communication. ‎ ‎ D. 3-D meetings have completely replaced real-life interactions. ‎ ‎30. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the passage?‎ A. To forecast a new workplace trend caused by technologies.‎ B. To encourage employees to make better use of technologies.‎ ‎ C. To stress the importance of combining work and technologies. ‎ ‎ D. To introduce the effects of technologies on how employees interact.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ We’ve all heard the phrase, “Work smarter, not harder.” When it comes to studying, there are some very specific ways you can improve your effectiveness without adding loads of extra work. ‎ Create a game plan. Before you begin your study session, create a game plan for exactly how you will study. Consider what you will study, how long you’ll spend on each subject and what study methods you will use. 31 Take at least 10 minutes before your study session to map out your game plan.‎ Outline your notes. Taking the time to boil your notes down to a standard outline can help you grasp the overall concepts you’re studying. You certainly can borrow or copy someone else’s notes, but you must work hard to put everything in your own words. 32 Many times, understanding the big picture is just as important as remembering all the individual facts. Outlining allows you to file individual facts under larger ideas.‎ Maintain balance. Balance can be difficult to maintain in school but it’s crucial for success. 33 Seek to carry out a balanced life. Make sure to maintain a social life and develop hobbies outside of school. Stay in touch with your family and keep them informed of your school progress. It’s certainly a challenge, but living in balance will keep you on the path to success.‎ ‎ 34 If you want to do well in school, you simply have to do it. But there are specific ways to study better. To make the most of your limited time. 35 By following the methods above, you can raise the quality of your studying sessions without necessarily increasing the quantity.‎ A. To keep from spinning your wheels.‎ B. There’s no way to get around studying.‎ C. Write out your notes by hand during class.‎ D. If you don’t, you’ll fail to understand the larger concept.‎ E. This allows you to study the right materials at the right time.‎ F. The last thing you want to do is bury yourself in a mountain of books.‎ G. Don’t spend all your time studying or all your time hanging with friends.‎ 第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ Back on the first day of school, Ms. Ryan told all the children that at the end of the year there would be a class party.

It was almost time to leave. He jumped into the car with his parents and headed off to the Olympic-sized pool for the big swim meet.‎ When his race came up, Mike was confident. He was strong and swift. Mike climbed out the pool, smiling. He had just won first place, making him the fastest boy in his age group.‎ ‎“Congratulations, son,” his father said. His mom gave him a hug, even though he was soaking wet. ‎ A week later, it was time for another swim meet. Like before, Mike decided to enjoy his favorite ice cream flavor. Mike remembered that the last time he had won a race, he also ate mint chocolate chip ice cream first. Maybe he’d win again.‎ He’s taken first place again in his race. Mike was feeling pretty good. As it turned out, Mike decided to have some mint chocolate chip ice cream before every one of the next few swim meets. He began to think of it as his lucky charm. After several months of placing in the top positions of every race he swam, Mike was feeling unbeatable. And he wouldn’t admit it, but all that ice cream was adding a few pounds to his athletic swimmer’s build.‎ It didn’t take long after that for Mike to start coming in second place – and then third – and then last place in his races. The lucky mint chocolate chip ice cream had lost its magic. ‎ On the day of his next swim meet, his mother sat down at the table with him. “Mike, we all love ice cream, but it’s not healthy for your body to eat so much of it. Maybe it’s time to quit the sweet treats for a while, especially before you go swimming.”‎ Mike unwillingly agreed. He went to the swim meet, and didn’t perform well. His father offered to go running with him a few days a week to help him feel better and strengthen his muscles. The extra weight soon disappeared, and Mike found himself breathing easier at swim practices.‎ 注意：‎ ‎1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；‎ ‎2. 至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语；‎ ‎3. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；‎ ‎4. 续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。‎ Paragraph 1:‎ It was the last meet of the season, and Mike wasn’t sure what to expect. _____________ ___________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎___________________________________________________________________________‎ Paragraph 2:‎ Finally came the end of the race. ___________________________________________‎ ‎___________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎___________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎___________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【答案解析】‎ 第一部分：听力（每小题1.5分，共30分）‎ ‎1-5 BCCAB 6-10 BCBAB 11-15 ACACC 16-20 ABCBA　　‎ 第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，35分）‎ 第一节（每小题2.5分，共25分）‎ A篇 21-23 DAD B篇 24-27 DBBC C篇 28-30 ACD ‎ 第二节（每小题2分，共10分）‎ ‎31-35 EDGBA 第三部分：语言运用（共两节，45分）‎ 第一节：完形填空（每小题1.5分，共30分）‎ ‎36-40 BCADB 41-45 ADCAA 46-50 DCBBA 51-55 DCDBC 第二节：语法填空（每小题1.5分，共15分）‎ ‎ 56. an 57. aprons 58. with 59. which 60. was making ‎ ‎61. suddenly 62. beginning 63.

He’d been training hard with his dad, and staying away from the rich desserts he enjoyed so much. He felt healthy again, but he didn’t know if he still had any speed in the pool. As he dove into the water, he kicked his legs and stretched his arms as far as he could. This race was a long one with several laps, so Mike tried to keep his energy level up even as he began feeling tired.‎ Paragraph 2:‎ Finally came the end of the race. Mike’s jaw dropped as he realized he had beaten his own best time, and everyone else’s too. Mike had won his race, and he had also qualified for the national championships.

it’s not such a lucky charm after all!”‎ 解析部分 第二部分 阅读理解 第一节 ‎ A ‎【语篇解读】本文是“人与社会”主题下的一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Clara Barton是一名勇敢的女性，她在内战时帮助受伤的士兵，最后还建立了美国红十字会。‎ ‎21.【答案】D ‎【解析】细节理解题。根据第五段“The two volunteered at the Washington Hospital.”可知Clara一开始在Washington Hospital帮助联邦军队，故选D。‎ ‎22.【答案】A ‎【解析】推理判断题。根据全文内容可知，A项“无畏的和有奉献精神的”符合，而B项的energetic精力充沛的，C项的humorous幽默的，和D项的confident自信的都无从得知，故错误。‎ ‎23.【答案】D ‎【解析】推理判断题。由全文内容可知，本文主要讲了Clara勇敢地帮助受伤的士兵，最后建立了美国红十字会，可推断出作者写本文主要是为了介绍美国红十字会的起源，故选D。‎ B ‎【语篇解读】本文是“人与自我”主题下的一篇说明文。文章讲述了盲人向蝙蝠学习，利用回声定位法来判断路障，从而保证顺利出行的一项新的科学研究。‎ ‎【试题解析】‎ ‎24.【答案】D ‎【解析】词义猜测题。根据文章第一段对蝙蝠回声定位法的阐述，可知蝙蝠的特殊能力（this special ability）是指利用声波的反弹来判断是否可以向前飞行。故选D。‎ ‎25.【答案】B ‎【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段“Kish is so skilled at echolocating that he can ride a bike and hike on his own.”可知，Daniel Kish擅长回声定位法才有能力骑车和徒步，而不是说他喜欢一个人骑车和徒步，故排除A。根据“This isn’t because he walks around in a cape (披风) and a mask, but because he has a bat-like ability to locate where he is through sharp clicks he makes by moving his tongue against the roof of his mouth.”可知，Kish被称为蝙蝠侠是因为他向蝙蝠一样能利用回声定位法，故排除C。Kish是参与实验的志愿者，并非实验的操作人员，故D选项错。正确选项是B。‎ ‎26.【答案】B ‎【解析】观点态度题。根据第五段Kolarik说到回声定位法“can be very useful”and “help people avoid objects like low hanging branches that might not get detected by the cane (盲杖) or a guide dog”可知，他认为在回声定位法能帮助盲人解除某些路障，提高出行的愉快体验，因此对盲人有利，有推广的意义。故选B。‎ ‎27.【答案】C ‎【解析】主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了科学家们发现盲人在出行时可以学习蝙蝠，利用回声定位法来判断可能存在的路障，从而保证出行的顺利。A选项“Echolocation in Human World”范围太大，文章的研究仅限于盲人，不正确。B选项“A Very Special Batman”，文章是一项科学研究，不是围绕一个人物展开，不正确。D选项 “A Breakthrough in echoing”，文章研究的是回声定位法，而不是回声，不正确。C选项“Finding New Way to ‘See’”，紧扣文章内容——盲人利用回声定位法来出行，犹如“神眼相助”，故选C。‎ C ‎【语篇解读】本文是“人与社会”主题下的一篇说明文。办公室引进技术，原本为了促进员工更好地合作，而实际上员工们却用作隔绝闲聊的遮挡物。新技术的引进，改变了办公室成员互动的模式，办公场所将逐渐失去它原本所具有的功能。比如，虚拟现实可以通过3-D 技术使处于不同地点的员工“聚”在一个虚拟的会议室开会。隔绝了办公室闲聊的工作模式有利有弊，但科学家预言，随着人工智能等新科学技术的发展，尽管人类的工作岗位不会为之取代，但办公场所的意义将发生很大的变化，今后人类办公可能不再需要统一的办公场所。‎ ‎28.【答案】A ‎【解析】推理判断题。分析前三段的逻辑关系可知，“Such behavior is indicative of a wider workplace trend.”指的是Stowe Boyd提及的“They wear their headphones—headphones are the new walls—to signal they are involved in high-concentration work and not available for chat”，也就是第一段提到的现象“many of the basic technologies that employees now used to work together often encourage them to work virtually independent of one another”，由此可以推断出A选项正确，员工们用新技术来隔绝闲聊，避免直接交流。‎ ‎29.【答案】C ‎ ‎【解析】推理判断题。第四段主题句是“It isn’t to say co-workers won’t connect.”，然后阐述了办公室员工如何利用科学技术进行全新的交流模式，还以“virtual reality”举例证明。C项符合题意，故选C。‎ ‎30.【答案】D ‎ ‎【解析】推理判断题。文章讲述了新技术的引进，改变了办公室成员互动的模式，办公场所将逐渐失去它原本所具有的功能。因此，文章主要研究新的科学技术对办公室成员互动模式的影响以及由此改变了办公场所的意义。D项符合题意，故选D。‎ 第二节 ‎【语篇解读】文章主要介绍了提高学习效率的一些具体的方法。‎ ‎31.【答案】E ‎ ‎【解析】根据本段的小标题及前后句的信息此处主要指计划的重要性。‎ ‎32.【答案】D ‎【解析】承接上句的建议，这里表示一个假设的情况。‎ ‎33.【答案】G ‎【解析】这一段主要是讲平衡。‎ ‎34.【答案】B ‎ ‎【解析】最后一段是总结全文。‎ ‎35.【答案】A ‎ ‎【解析】与前一句结构并列。‎ 第三部分 语言运用 第一节 ‎【语篇解读】主要讲述母亲和孩子如何在时间很紧的情况下一起为学校party准备纸杯蛋糕的故事。 ‎ ‎36.【答案】B ‎【解析】副词辨析题。季节交替是一个缓慢而确定的过程。‎ ‎37.【答案】C ‎【解析】动词辨析题。根据上下文可知。到了学年结束，开始计划打算party了。‎ ‎38.【答案】A ‎【解析】动词辨析题。食物同学们一起带来，一起分享。‎ ‎39.【答案】D ‎【解析】动词短语辨析题。此处sign up for 意为主动申领某项任务。‎ ‎40.【答案】B ‎【解析】形容词辨析题。从第一段可知，他们是在学年结束的时候举行party, 因此选last。‎ ‎41.【答案】A ‎ ‎【解析】动词辨析题。How time flies意为时间飞逝。‎ ‎42.【答案】D ‎【解析】动词辨析题。从上下文可知我应该是忘了。‎ ‎43.【答案】C ‎【解析】动词辨析题。Be supposed to 表示应该。‎ ‎44.【答案】A ‎【解析】动词辨析题。从下文可知，准备cupcake时间很紧。妈妈皱眉表示担心。‎ ‎45.【答案】A ‎【解析】动词辨析题。没有足够时间烤制。‎ ‎46.【答案】D ‎【解析】动词辨析题。时间不足，所以只能不带cupcake而去参加party。‎ ‎47.【答案】C ‎【解析】动词辨析题。Hold back tears 意为抑制眼泪。‎ ‎48.【答案】B ‎【解析】动词辨析题。从上下文可知，妈妈在安慰他。‎ ‎49.【答案】B ‎ ‎【解析】形容词辨析题。从下文“The icing will melt.”可知warm。‎ ‎50.【答案】A ‎【解析】名词辨析题。I have an idea.意为我想到办法了。‎ ‎51.【答案】D ‎【解析】连词辨析题。此处While用作并列连词。‎ ‎52.【答案】C ‎【解析】动词辨析题。此处意为用匙舀。‎ ‎53.【答案】D ‎【解析】副词辨析题。我们通常是把糖屑撒在冰淇淋上面。‎ ‎54.【答案】B ‎ ‎【解析】动词辨析题。用糖屑点缀 cupcake。‎ ‎55.【答案】C ‎ ‎【解析】动词辨析题。同学们会喜欢自己点缀他们的 cupcake。‎ 第二节 ‎【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，讲述了煎饼赛跑节的由来。‎ ‎56.【答案】an ‎ ‎【解析】考查冠词。根据后面的形容词unusual，该词由元音开头，故填an。‎ ‎57.【答案】aprons ‎ ‎【解析】考查名词复数。根据主语they可知，参赛选手们系着围裙，应该用复数形式，故填aprons。‎ ‎58.【答案】with ‎ ‎【解析】考查介词。根据语义可知，每个妇女拿着一个煎锅，里面放着一个煎饼，考查了with的复合宾语结构。‎ ‎59.【答案】which ‎ ‎【解析】考查定语从句。根据语境“This “pancake racing” tradition is said to have started on Shrove Tuesday, 1445, in Olney, 59 is the day before the Christian season of Lent begins.”可知，此处是定语从句，先行词是Shrove Tuesday，属于分割式定语从句，考生需要仔细分析语意才能正确把握题意，故填which。‎ ‎60.【答案】was making ‎ ‎【解析】考查谓语动词。根据下文，当时她正在做煎饼，为了在大斋节前用光所有的糖和脂肪，所以用过去进行时。‎ ‎61.【答案】suddenly ‎ ‎【解析】考查副词。用副词修饰动词，故填sudden的副词形式suddenly。‎ ‎62.【答案】beginning ‎ ‎【解析】考查词形变换。根据语境可知，教堂的钟声预示着忏悔星期二的开始，故填begin的名词形式beginning。‎ ‎63.【答案】Realizing ‎ ‎【解析】考查非谓语动词。根据语境可知，此处是原因状语“因为意识到要迟到了”，故用非谓语动词的主动式Realizing。‎ ‎64.【答案】raced ‎ ‎【解析】考查谓语动词。根据上下文，意识到要迟到了，她冲了出去。所以用一般过去时。‎ ‎65.【答案】and/so ‎ ‎【解析】考查并列连词。分析句子结构可知，空格前是逗号，空格后引导并列句，两句之间是顺承或者因果关系，故填and或so。‎ 第四部分 写作 第一节 ‎ 【写作思路】该题要求考生根据所给信息写则一封求助信，属于半开放性的作文，考生有一定的发挥空间。考生在解答此题时，首先要注意该文的体裁为书信，语言相对来说较正式。其次，求助的内容要齐全。根据要点可适当增加细节以及过渡性语言，以使行文连贯。‎ ‎ 【范文赏读】见上文 第二节 ‎【范文赏读】见上文 附：听力参考材料 Text 1‎ W: I can’t believe you got second place in the race!

Should I go down this 1st Street and then turn onto Main Street when I see the mall? ‎ M: I usually just pay for a taxi to get to the museum. It’s very cheap.‎ Text 4‎ W: Do you think school will be closed tomorrow? The roads are supposed to be really bad after the snow tonight.‎ M: I hope so.

Did you know that sea levels have risen more in the last century than in the last two thousand years? The fact is our earth is warming at an alarming rate. Here are some helpful tips for you and your family to help protect our environment.‎ REDUCE. Use cloth bags for your groceries instead of plastic. It reduces the amount of waste that ends up in our garbage dumps and oceans. Using less electricity also greatly helps to reduce air pollution.‎ REUSE. When we reuse, we are also reducing pollution, because burning garbage gives off harmful gases into the atmosphere. It is said that about sixty million plastic bottles are thrown away each day in America. So just by switching to a reusable glass water bottle, you are making a difference.‎ RECYCLE. Each family should have a black garbage can and a green can for food waste. In addition, you will have three blue cans for your paper, plastic and metals. More information about recyclable materials will be in the mail or on the website www.lacity.org. If you do not have recycling containers, please call City Services at 213-473-8888. Let’s work together to make our city a safer, healthier, and more beautiful place to live in. ‎
