Sometimes while sitting doing nothing, our minds recall events from the past that make us all tingly inside. I had one of those moments yesterday. I believe this was triggered(引起)by the oldie The Impossible Dream that was playing on the radio yesterday afternoon!
In 1971, returning from our regular Friday night pregame meeting, I had no sooner walked in the door of our three-room apartment hack than the phone rang. It was the township police. They inquired if I was the football coach. I answered yes and asked if there was a problem. He said our football team had climbed the fence of the township football field and were sitting somewhere around the 50-yard line quietly. It was really not a problem. However, he thought I would like to know. I called my assistants, and made our way to the field.
We met the police at the locked gate. The field was dark and silent. Then, suddenly, we heard voices singing—together and on key—the team theme song, The Impossible Dream. Silently, we listened and became overwhelmed(压倒)with emotion. Even the policemen had tears rolling down their cheeks. When the team had finished, they walked slowly to the now-opened gate of the field and were shocked to see us waiting there. Of course, our first words were, "What is going on?"
Mike Bernert, the team captain, replied, "Well, coach, you told us to visualize our performance in our mind just before the night of the game. So we came and visualized the upcoming game while sitting on the 50-yard line. Afterward, we would sing The Impossible Dream.”
The coaches and I were overwhelmed. And of course, the team, which was undefeated at this point, never lost a game that season.
4. What does the underlined word “tingly” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Frightened. B. Excited.
C. Worried. D. Puzzled.
5. Why did the police call?
A. The team did something unusual.
B. The team had conflicts with fans.
C. The team locked themselves in the football field.
D. The team damaged the fences of the playground.
6. How did the team feel when they saw the author and the policeman?
A. Happy. B. Sad.
C. Ashamed. D. Surprised.
7. What is the purpose for the team to sing the song?
A. To enjoy themselves. B. To inspire themselves.
C. To celebrate their success. D. To rest themselves.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. B

If you've ever wondered what the process of becoming an astronaut is like, Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex (KSCVC) now has an experience that puts visitors in the shoes of a space explorer in training. The center's Astronaut Training Experience (ATE), features four simulations (模拟). They all require teamwork and good communication.
Dee Maynard, manager of education programs at KSCVC, said the experience was designed to keep visitors involved the whole time. ''When we were designing this, one of our concerns was that we wanted to be having an experience and not waiting around, '' Maynard said. ''Also, astronaut training is very much a team effort. ''
Although astronauts go through thousands of hours of training before taking off for space, this training does include some parts that are similar to those of real NASA training.
One simulation helps visitors learn what it takes to launch NASA's Space Launch System rocket. Six people step into the role of launch control and communicate with six others on the Orion capsule.
Visitors take turns reading and passing instructions and sets of data from both sides. In mission control (地面指挥中心), they can step into roles including flight director and spacecraft systems officer. Inside the capsule, people try their hand at such jobs as flight engineer and
commander.
Across the room, there are chairs that are similar to the kind of zero gravity chair. With the press of a switch, the chairs fly across a special floor, giving astronauts-in-training an experience that somewhat simulates the zero gravity environment of space. This part of the experience also offers visitors a chance to learn about the management about sleeping, using the toilet and working in space.
Two simulations help participants experience what life on Mars might look like.
12. What are the qualities most required for the astronaut training at KSCVC?
①Working together. ②Reading skills.
③Data analyzing. ④Communication skills.
A. ①③ B. ①④ C. ②③ D. ②④
13. How might people feel when they take part in ATE?
A. Busy. B. Bored. C. Worried. D. Comfortable.
14. We can conclude in the paragraph that follows ________.
A. the readers will get to know more about roles in space.
B. the zero gravity environment of space will be described.
C. the author might introduce NASA's Space Launch System.
D. the ''land and drive on Mars'' simulators might be talked about.
15. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Explore the Future of Space
B. Realize Your Dream at KSCVC
C. Experience Life as an Astronaut
D. Make Yourself a Great Astronaut
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C

【17题详解】
根据后文“You should take a notebook with you and take notes about your impressions of the
movie. Afterwards you can write a rough draft of your review including the names of the director, actors and any other related information about the film.(你应该带个笔记本,记下你对这部电影的印象。然后你可以写一份评论的草稿,包括导演的名字,演员的名字和任何有关这部电影的信息。)” 可知,该段主要讲述写影评之前的准备,而这些准备应是在观看电影时进行的信息搜集。选项B“You must search for the information about the film.(你必须搜索有关这部电影的资料。)”合理概括了该段主要内容,可与后文构成总分的逻辑关系,符合语境搭配。故选B项。
【18题详解】
根据前文“However, in the second paragraph, your aim is to write a short plot summary.”可知,该段要讲述的是如何写一个简单的总结,由此可推知设空句应进一步解释该总结涉及的内容。选项F“It should include details that give the audience an introduction to the film.”提到它应该包括给观众介绍电影的细节,符合对“a short plot summary”的进一步解释,其中句中的主语“It”与前文的“a short plot summary”相呼应。故选F项。

4.去掉progress前的a
5.successful→successfully
6.activity→activities
7.pay→paid
8.so→and
9.a→the
10.Win→Winning
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。作者介绍了自己最好的朋友Alice。
【详解】1.考查形容词。句意:Alice,我最好的朋友,在她的功课上投入了很多精力。energy是不可数名词,应使用much修饰,故将many改为much。
2.考查it的用法。句意:她如此喜欢音乐,所以她把在业余时间欣赏音乐作为一个规定。分析句子结构可知,不定式to enjoy songs in her spare time是真正宾语,应在make后加it作形式宾语,故在makes后加it。
3.考查虚拟语气。句意:要是没有她的帮助,我就不会取得这样的进步。分析句子结构可知,此处是省略if的虚拟语气,根据主句谓语部分“couldn’t have made”可知,此处是与过去事实相反,虚拟条件句中应使用过去完成时,故将Have改为Had。
4.考查零冠词。progress是不可数名词,其前不能加不定冠词a,故去掉progress前的a。
5.考查副词。句意:作为一名志愿者,她成功地组织了一些志愿活动。此处修饰动词organized ,应使用副词形式,故将successful改为successfully。
6.考查名词复数。activity是可数名词,根据some可知,此处应使用复数形式,故将activity改为activities。
7.考查时态。句意:我们上个月去拜访了一家疗养院,我还在学校附近捡垃圾。根据时间状语“last month”可知,句子应使用一般过去时,故将pay改为paid。
8.考查连词。分析句子可知,两个分句之间是并列关系,应使用连词and连接,故将so改为and。
9.考查定冠词。句意:我们做的事情受到疗养院的全体人员的热烈欢迎。此处特指上文提到的疗养院,应使用定冠词the,故将a改为the。
10.考查非谓语动词。句意:Alice为我们学校赢得荣誉,同学们都佩服她。句中已有谓语动词is admired,所以动词win应使用非谓语形式,且win和逻辑主语Alice之间是主谓关系,应用现在分词作状语,故将Win改为Winning。

Dear fellow students, let's take action right now!
【答案】Dear fellow students,
The earth is faced with serious pollution and energy shortage. It is time for us to lead a low-carbon lifestyle in order to protect the earth. I think everyone should take an active part.

Second, when shopping, we should bring our own shopping bags instead of buying plastic bags, which cause white pollution. And it’ s important for us to save electricity whenever possible.
