B
Most Americans see their pets as family members, surveys show. Those with dogs are more likely to call themselves pet “parents” than pet “owners”. There are more of these parents than ever. In big cities such as San Francisco and Seattle,(owned) dogs outnumber children.
The ways in which companies are profiting from the trend are also becoming various. Kinds of dog food and various pet mattresses (垫子) are always in hot sale. And it is not surprising that, for pets, Americans spent more than $400 million only on Halloween costumes this year. Overall, annual spending on pet food and products in America has risen by around 40% over the past ten years.
Now a pack of startups have sensed a fresh opportunity.
Much as Airbnb has offered travelers another choice instead of staying in a hotel, two firms, Recover and DogVacay, want to give pet owners an alternative to kennels (养狗场) when away from home. The cost is around $30 a night, with the majority of that going to the sitter, who takes care of the dog, and around a fifth to the company﹣much less than you would spend to check your dog into a kennel.
The other big sellingpoint is that pets will receive better treatment. There are ways, apparently, to vet (审查) dog hosts to the real pet lovers: only around 15% of those who apply to serve as sitters are passed. Besides offering more attention and room, Rover has launched a feature that helps customers to see how far their dog has been walked via the GPS in the host’s phone. Like Airbnb, both DogVacay and Recover insure stays against accidents.
Another advantage of the model is that consumers often use dog-sitting services many times a year, and they tend to be loyal. That has helped DogVacay and Recover attract a lot of money﹣around $140 million between them.
But firms that connect pets with hosts will face great competition as they try to go global. Companies offering homestays for dog rapidly appear in many different countries, including Australia, Brazil and Britain. And unlike Airbnb, which pulls in customers thanks to its presence in lots of markets that people want to travel to, the network effect for services like DogVacay is local.
Despite having predicted the trend early, such firms may never achieve the same scale as an Airbnb.But then no one ever said it was easy to be top dog.
14. What do Rover and Dog Vacay do?
A. They are firms selling pet food and products.
B. They are agents helping startups with opportunities.
C. They are new companies providing pet-sitting service.
D. They are hotels offering rooms to pet owners.
15. What does the number 15% suggest in the 5th paragraph?
A. Pets are most likely to receive better treatment.
B. There are fewer real pet lovers than expected.
C. Fewer people are willing to serve as pet sitters.
D. The requirement of pet sitters are not fair.
16. What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph?
A. Rover and Dog Vacay are learning from Airbnb.
B. Rover and Dog Vacay are facing competition.
C. Rover and Dog Vacay should pick out the best dogs.
D. Rover and Dog Vacay are looking forward to having top dogs.
【答案】14. C 15. A 16. B
【解析】
本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述宠物主人越来越重视宠物,因此很多新公司抓住新的机遇,开发照顾宠物的市场。
14. 细节理解题。文中“Much as Airbnb has offered travelers another choice instead of staying in a hotel, two firms, Recover and DogVacay, want to give pet owners an alternative to kennels (养狗场) when away from home.”就像Airbnb为游客提供了另一种选择,而不是住在酒店,两家公司Recover and DogVacay,希望当主人不在家时,给宠物主人提供一个替代养狗场的选择。 Recover and DogVacay是新的公司,主要是替代养狗场来照顾宠物的,故选C。
15. 推理判断题。文中“The other big selling point is that pets will receive better treatment. There are ways, apparently, to vet (审查) dog hosts to the real pet lovers: only around 15% of those who apply to serve as sitters are passed.” 另一个大卖点是宠物会得到更好的待遇。显然,有一些方法可以使狗主人对真正的宠物爱好者进行审查:只有大约15%的申请成为保姆的人通过了。由此可知,狗主人对照顾宠物的保姆要求很严格,因此可推断宠物最大可能得到更好的待遇, 故选A。
16. 句意猜测题。文中 “Despite having predicted the trend early, such firms may never achieve the same scale as an Airbnb. But then no one ever said it was easy to be top dog.” 尽管这些公司很早就预测了这一趋势,但它们的规模可能永远比不上Airbnb。但那时没人说当老大很容易。再结合第七段,主要说明虽然这些公司预测到照顾宠物狗的市场潜力很大,但也是面临各种各样的竞争,因此推断划线部分意思是Rover and DogVacay正面临竞争,故选B。
C
Doctors say you had better use it before you lose it. The more you sit each day, the more chance you have of getting sick.
Richard Rosenkranz of Kansas State University was among the researchers. He said people who sat for long periods were at great risk of diseases when compared with those who sat less. He said that was especially true for some chronic (慢性的) diseases.
Richard Rosenkranz studied the relationship between sitting and chronic diseases in middle-aged Australian men. He worked with researchers from the University of Western Sydney. They examined the health records of more than 63,000 men from New South Wales. The men were between the ages of 45 and 65. The men reported about what diseases they had, or did not have. And they kept record of the amount of time each day that they sat.
The study also showed that exercising every morning for 30minutes did not reduce the health risk if you spend the next eight hours sitting at the desk. Mr. Rosenkranz said it was important to
make sure you exercise. But he said it was also important to find ways not to sit so much during the day.
Many jobs today require sitting and working at the desk all day. James Levine works at the Mayo Clinic in the United Sates. He suggests working while standing at high table some of the time instead of sitting at a desk. Dr. Levine also suggests standing while using the telephone or eating. Or he advises walking with the people you work with for an on-foot meeting. And he notes that if you spend more time on your feet, you may have muscle activity that helps burn fats and sugars in your body.
17. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph implies that ________.
A. doctors should treat all the patients well
B. doctors should make use of every method
C. one should value his health before he loses it
D. one should depend on himself to keep healthy
18. How did Richard Rosenkranz make the study?
A. By examining some records and reports.
B. By making some laboratory experiments.
C. By talking with the doctors and patients.
D. By watching the men’s daily performance.
19. According to Dr. Levine, in order to avoid the harm of long-time sitting, one should ________.
A. exercise more often
B. change his job
C. stay away from the desk
D. stand or walk more
20. Where does this text probably come from?
A. A fashion magazine B. A health magazine
C. A biology textbook D. A life guide
【答案】17. C 18. A 19. D 20. B
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。主要说明久坐影响人的健康,建议经常坐着工作的人尽可能多的站立或行走。
17. 推理判断题。 “Doctors say you had better use it before you lose it.” 医生说你最好在失去它之前使用它。而本文主要讲述的是久坐影响健康,因此中心思想同健康有关,因此推断it指的是健康,所以这句话暗示人们在失去健康之前要珍惜健康,故选C。
18. 细节理解题。 文中“They examined the health records of more than 63,000 men from New South Wales. The men were between the ages of 45 and 65. The men reported about what diseases they had, or did not have.”他们检查了来自新南威尔士州的63,000多名男子的健康记录。这些人年龄在45岁到65岁之间。这些人报告了他们有或没有患过什么疾病。由此可知Richard Rosenkranz是通过检查一些记录和报告来进行研究的,故选A。
19. 细节理解题。文中“He suggests working while standing at high table some of the time instead of sitting at a desk. Dr. Levine also suggests standing while using the telephone or eating. Or he advises walking with the people you work with for an on-foot meeting.” 他建议,有时站在高桌旁工作,而不是坐在桌子前。Dr. Levine还建议在使用电话或吃饭时站立。或者他建议和你一起工作的人一起徒步开会。因此可知,他建议更多的站立或行走,故选D。
20. 推理判断题。本文主要讲述的是久坐影响健康,因此中心思想同健康有关,由此可推断此篇文章可能来自健康杂志,故选B。
D
When I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, ”Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish.” I remember being even more upset then because, “I’m not a fish!” I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?
As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids(眼皮) and
the sun hurts their eyes…The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.
When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need to think like salespeople.” But it didn’t completely make sense. My dad never once said, “If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.
21. Why was the author upset in fishing trips when he was nine?
A. He could not catch a fish
B. His father was not patient with him
C. His father did not teach him fishing
D. He could not influence a fish as his father did
22. What did the author’s father really mean?
A. To read about fish
B. To learn fishing by oneself
C. To understand what fish think
D. To study fishing in many ways
23. According to the author, fish are most likely to be found .
A. in deep water on sunny days
B. in deep water on cloudy days
C. in shallow water under sunlight
D. in shallow water under waterside trees
24. After entering the business world,the author found .
A. it easy to think like a customer
B. his father’s fishing advice inspiring
C. his first boss’s sales ideas reasonable
D. it difficult to sell services to poor people
25. This passage most likely comes from .
A. a fishing guide
B. a popular sales book
C. a novel on childhood
D. a millionaire’s biography
【答案】21. A 22. C 23. D 24. B 25. B
【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。本文叙述了作者通过以父亲教授他钓鱼时,要像鱼一样思考,学会钓鱼的道理,告诉大家从事商业销售时要像消费者一样去思考。
21. 细节理解题。根据第一段的But that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset. 可知,但这不是很有趣的是,他可以抓很多鱼,而我什么也抓不到。我通常很沮丧。所以作者感到沮丧,是因为他一条鱼也抓不到。故选A。
22. 推理判断题。根据第二段The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.可以,我越了解鱼,我越能有效的找到并抓住鱼。由此判断出父亲的意思是了解鱼的想法。故选C。
23. 推理判断题。根据第二段I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids(眼皮) and the sun hurts their eyes. 我了解到鱼是一种冷血动物,因此对水温非常敏感。这就是为什么鱼类喜欢浅水而不喜欢深水,因为前者比较温暖。此外,水在阳光直射下通常比在阴凉处更暖和。然而,鱼却没有眼皮,太阳会伤害它们的眼睛。由此判断出,根据作者的说法,鱼最有可能出现在浅水区的水边树下。故选D。
24. 推理判断题。根据最后一段I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers可知,我逐渐了解我们需要像消费者一样去思考,这与父亲的“You need to think like a fish”相似,由此判断出,作者进入商界后,作者发现他父亲的钓鱼建议很有启发性。故选B。
25. 推理判断题。根据It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters“这不是一份轻松的工作,我将在下面几章里向你们展示如何去做”,故推断这篇短文很可能来自一本畅销书。故选B。

【解析】
本篇是一篇记叙文。主要讲述情人节的起源和庆祝方式。
51. 考查固定短语。句意:它的起源和历史有几个不同的版本,其中一个可以追溯到2月15日庆祝的古罗马节日Lupercalia。date back to为固定短语,意为“追溯到,始于”,故填to。
52. 考查过去分词。句意:它的起源和历史有几个不同的版本,其中一个可以追溯到2月15日庆祝的古罗马节日Lupercalia。分析句子成分可知,空中用来修饰节日作定语,和节日之间是被动关系,因此用过去分词作定语,故填celebrated。
53. 考查代词。句意:在这一天,年轻的单身妇女会把她们的名字放在一个巨大的容器里,城里的年轻单身汉就会从里抽取一个名字。分析句子可知,空中用来修饰名词作定语,应该用they的形容词性物主代词,故填their。
54. 考查定语从句引导词。句意:这个年轻的男人和那个名字被选中的女人将在接下来的几年里成为伴侣。分析句子可知,______ name was picked为非限制性定语从句,空中指代前面的the woman,在从句中做定语,故填whose。
55. 考查形容词。句意:这个年轻的男人和那个名字被选中的女人将在接下来的几年里成为伴侣。分析句子可知,空中修饰名词作定语,应用follow的形容词形式,故填following。

57. 考查时态和语态。句意:人们认为二月是浪漫的完美月份。分析句子可知,空中缺少谓语动词,描述事实,故用一般现在时,和主语之间是被动关系,故用被动语态,故填is believed。
58. 考查词性转换。句意:情人节最初在欧洲庆祝,但近年来在中国也庆祝,特别是在年轻人中。分析句子可知,空中修饰介词短语做状语,应用especial的副词形式,故填especially。
59. 考查时态和语态。句意:这是为了纪念传说中的牛郎与织女被银河分开一年后被允许在一起的那一天。分析句子可知,空中为谓语动词,叙述一般事实,用一般现在时,和主语之间为被动关系,用被动语态,故填are allowed。
60. 考查感叹句和冠词。句意:多么有趣的故事啊!本句为感叹句,对可数名词单数story进行感叹,要用冠词修饰,并且interesting以元音音素开头,故填an。
【点睛】语法填空中的非谓语动词解题步骤,首先分析句子结构,明确空格处应是谓语还是非谓语。 然后按照非谓语动词在句中所充当的成分和特点,并结合语境来确定正确形式。解题技巧:1. 提示词为动词,句子中已经有谓语且没有连词时应填非谓语动词。 2. 根据非谓语动词在句中所作的成分,判断非谓语动词逻辑主语与所给动词的主、被动关系。3. 判断非谓语动词与主句谓语动词之间的先后关系,来确定正确形式。小题2已有主句there be 句型,celebrated为非谓语,和它的逻辑主语Lupercalia是被动关系,并且发生在谓语动词之前,故填过去分词celebrated。

【答案】Dear John,
I'm sorry to hear that you’re addicted to WeChat. I really understand how you feel and I'd like to offer you some useful advice that is beneficial to you.
Addiction in WeChat can make us lose interest in learning and lack self-control. Besides, mobile phone radiation can affect our health.
Firstly, I suggest that you should start some other hobbies, such as reading, or drawing, which will take your mind off WeChat. Secondly, you'd better make more friends, who can help you when you can't resist the temptation of WeChat. Thirdly, it's better for you to do some sports instead of using WeChat a lot because sports can not only keep you healthy but also enrich your life.
I hope these suggestions can help you get rid of your addiction as soon as possible.
Best wishes!
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
