B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Look at the map of Spain and point at the center. You've located the country's capital and one
of Europe's most beautiful cities: Madrid. This popular destination is considered a city of contrasts
with its abundant historic sites, resting in the shadows of modern skyscrapers.
History
This city of over 3 million people is proud of Western Europe's largest royal palace, and some
consider it to be Madrid's most beautiful building.
Inside the Royal Palace 2,800 rooms are decorated in glory with museum-quality furniture
and artworks. Tourists can tour 50 of these large and splendid rooms.
Art
The Internationally respected Prado Museum is the largest and most impressive art gallery in
Spain. Opened in 1819, it is filled with works of art that feature the world's most comprehensive
collection of Spanish paintings.
Shopping
Madrid has some of Europe's best shopping, and potential buyers love to look through the
stores looking for bargains. But for 500 years, shoppers have gathered to an extremely large
outdoor flea market known as the Rastro where they find everything from antiques to CDs.
Entertainment
No trip to Madrid is complete without seeing a performance of Spain's famous art form,
flamenco. Every day, flamenco performers sing, dance or play the guitar in small cafes and grand
theaters alike.
Food
Madrid has a wide variety of restaurants, but because the Spanish typically eat late at about 9
or 10 p.m., it's difficult to find good dinner food earlier. If you get hungry before then, the best
solution is to try a tapas bar where light snacks are served. Be sure to try the jamon, a kind of
dry-cured ham: Spain is famous for it.
1. What do we know about the Royal Palace in Madrid?
A. It has 50 rooms for visit.
B. It can hold 2, 800 people.
C. It's been visited by 3 million people.
D. It is thought to be the largest in Europe.
2. What kind of market is “the Rastro”?
A. For discount.
B. For artworks.
C. To sell various goods.
D. To sell antiques and CDs.
3. What is a must when travelling in Madrid?
A. Having dinner earlier.
B. Enjoying flamenco.
C. Visiting Prado Museum.
D. Drinking in a tapas bar.
【答案】1. A 2. C 3. B
【解析】
本文是一则广告,介绍了西班牙首都马德里的旅游特色,包括马德里的历史、艺术、购物、
娱乐以及美术等信息。
【1 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二部分最后一句 Tourists can tour 50 of these large and splendid rooms 可
知马德里的 the Royal Palace 可以提供 50 个房间给游客参观。故 A 项正确。
【2 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四部分最后一句 But for 500 years, shoppers have gathered to an extremely
large outdoor flea market known as the Rastro where they find everything from antiques to CDs.
可知在 the Rastro,游客们可以购买很多东西,从古董到 CD 等,由此判断出 he Rastro 应该
是出售货物的商店。故 C 项正确。
【3 题详解】
细节 理解题。 根据文 章第五 部分第一 句 No trip to Madrid is complete without seeing a
performance of Spain's famous art form, flamenco.可知当我们去马德里旅行的时候,如果不去
观看 flamenco,那么这次旅行就是不完整的。也就是说 flamenco 是马德里旅行必须要参观
的。故 B 项正确。
B
We’re often reminded of the importance of preserving the planet as we see it for future
generations—and children at St Oswald’s Primary School in Chester certainly agree.
Nine-year-old Isobel Kelleher from the school’s Hummingbirds class thinks adults need to
take note.“Sometimes they can be busy and I don’t think they think they can make a
difference,but if everyone does a little bit it all adds up,”she tells HuffPost UK.“We started
looking at plastic pollution in our oceans and the things like plastic bags and broken down pieces
of plastic that are polluting them.”she says.“Fish can eat the plastic and they can die,or we
might even eat the fish ourselves.”
Mr Timms,Isobel’s teacher,has been spearheading a new project at the school which lets
children loose creatively to raise awareness of the need to be more environmentally friendly.The
entire Hummingbirds class,which is made up of 9 and 10-year-old pupils,has been busy writing
poems and creating online video adverts to warn adults about the serious situation of our oceans
and wildlife.
Mr Timms thinks children have an important role to play in teaching us how to take care of
the things around us.“We sometimes overlook how much we can really learn from children.”he
says.“It has been really hard to believe having parents come in saying that their children have
been asking them to stop using plastic,and to recycle more,and even stopping them using plastic
straws.”
Mr Timms is proud of his Hummingbirds class.“The message that they would like to send
to the world is simple:stopping this isn’t someone else’s job,and it won’t be OK if we just
leave it.”
4. What can we infer about adults according to Isobel Kelleher?
A. They just pretend to be busy.
B. They haven’t done their part well.
C. They can do nothing to stop pollution.
D. They have started to care about oceans.
5. What is the purpose of the school project?
A. To help adults to learn more about their kids.
B. To remind adults to be friendly to environment.
C. To persuade students to stop using plastic bags.
D. To teach students how to write poems creatively.
6. Why does Mr Timms mention“parents”in Paragraph 4?
A. To prove kids are creative in teaching.
B. To attract people to support his work.
C. To have adults care about education.
D. To show the effects of the project.
7. What is the text mainly about?
A. An inspiring school project.
B. An appeal to stop plastic bags.
C. Serious situations of our planet.
D. Adults’ignorance of environment.
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇环保类记叙文,主要介绍了一所小学的老师带头开展了一个项目——让孩子们发
挥创造力来提醒人们增强环保意识。
【4 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“thinks adults need to take note.“Sometimes they can be busy
and I don’t think they think they can make a difference,but if everyone does a little bit it all adds
up”可知,Isobel Kelleher 认为大人们应该注意这一点,“有时候他们会很忙,我不认为他
们认为自己可以有影响,但如果每个人都做一点,一切就好办了”,由此可知,Isobel Kelleher
认为大人们在保护地球方面并没有做好自己的本职工作,故 B 项正确。
【5 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Mr Timms,Isobel’s teacher,has been spearheading a new
project at the school which lets children loose creatively to raise awareness of the need to be more
environmentally friendly.”及第四段中的“Mr Timms thinks children have an important role to
play in teaching us how to take care of the things around us.”可知,这个项目的目的是让孩子们
发挥创造力提醒大人们要注意环保,故 B 项正确。
【6 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Mr Timms thinks children have an important role to play in
teaching us how to take care of the things around us.”可知,Timms 认为孩子在教我们如何爱
护周围的事物上起重要作用,紧接着提到家长说孩子们让他们停止使用塑料袋和吸管、让他
们回收更多就是为了证明这个项目的影响,故 D 项正确。
【7 题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,特别是根据第三段中的“Mr Timms,Isobel’s teacher,has been
spearheading a new project at the school which lets children loose creatively to raise awareness of
the need to be more environmentally friendly.”可知,本文主要介绍了一所小学的老师带头开
展了一个项目——让孩子们发挥创造力来提醒人们增强环保意识,故 A 项(一个鼓舞人心
的学校项目)正确。
【点睛】主旨大意题的难度较大,抓住文章中心句是关键,例如本篇第 4 题,文章开篇就说
我们经常被提醒保护地球的重要性,紧接着又说小学生 Isobel Kelleher 认为大人们在保护地
球方面并没有做好自己的本职工作,由此可知,本文是一篇环保类的文章,在第三段引出文
章中心,根据“Mr Timms,Isobel’s teacher,has been spearheading a new project at the school
which lets children loose creatively to raise awareness of the need to be more environmentally
friendly.”可知,本文主要介绍了一所小学的老师带头开展了一个项目——让孩子们发挥创
造力来提醒人们增强环保意识,故 A 项(一个鼓舞人心的学校项目)最能概括出文章内容。
C
In the middle of the 19th century,a fever dream of riches beyond measure drew countless
explorers west to the mountains of central California.Although the gold rush ended up being a bust
for many who sought a fortune,some of those explorers discovered a natural treasure that would
draw permanent settlers to Yosemite Valley in the following decade.
Vast wilderness,beautiful mountains,countless waterfalls,and abundant wildlife drew Native
Americans to Yosemite roughly 10,000 years ago.The first non-native tourists arrived in the
mid-1850s after reports from gold seekers told of an area of breathtaking beauty that no words
were able to describe.
Fortunately,some of Yosemite’s earliest settlers recognized that Yosemite’s natural beauty
and resources needed to be preserved for future generations.In the midst of the Civil War,
President Abraham Lincoln signed a grant to protect Yosemite permanently,thus making it the
nation’s first land to be dedicated to recreation and setting the stage for what would become the
national park system.
One of Yosemite’s earliest ambassadors was Scottish-American naturalist and writer John
Muir.After living in Yosemite for a few years,he helped define its proposed boundaries.He also
wrote articles that helped lead to its official title as a National Park in 1890.He later co-founded
the Sierra Club in 1892 to advocate for its continued preservation and protection.
Located on the western slope of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in central California,
Yosemite National Park runs across nearly 748,000 acres,almost 95%of which is
wilderness.Around four million visitors come to Yosemite each year to camp,hike its miles of
trails,climb its rock formations,and photograph its impressive sights.Are you ready to visit
Yosemite National Park? Which of Yosemite’s sights would you most like to experience?
8. Which of the following best explains“bust”underlined in Paragraph 1?
A. Memory. B. Symbo1. C. Failure. D.
Challenge.
9. When did the first non-native tourists come to Yosemite?
A. After it was discovered by gold seekers.
B. When the gold rush finally came to a stop.
C. Before native Americans found its beauty.
D. When it became a National Park in 1890.
10. What do we learn about John Muir?
A. He was the first to build the national park.
B. He helped set the boundaries of Yosemite.
C. He wrote to collect money for Yosemite.
D. He gave Yosemite an official name.
11. What do we know about Yosemite National Park?
A. It has been well preserved since the Civil War.
B. It was originally created to protect wild animals.
C. It used to be well-known for its man-made beauty.
D. It was once damaged by some of its earliest settlers.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了美国风景优美之地约塞米蒂的历史以及约塞米蒂国家公园的特
点。
【8 题详解】
词义猜测题。根据.Although 和画线词后的“some of those explorers discovered a natural
treasure”以及历史知识可知,尽管淘金热最终以许多淘金者的失败而告终,但其中一些探
索者发现了一个自然宝藏,由此可知画线词词义为“失败”,故 C 项正确。
【9 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The first non-native tourists arrived in the mid-1850s after
reports from gold seekers told of an area of breathtaking beauty that no words were able to
describe.”可知,第一批非本地游客是在听淘金者说这里有难以用语言描绘的美景后来到约
塞米蒂的,也就是他们在这个地方被淘金者发现之后来到这里的,故 A 项正确。
【10 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“After living in Yosemite for a few years,he helped define its
proposed boundaries.”可知,在约塞米蒂居住多年后,John Muir 帮助确定了约塞米蒂的边界,
故 B 项正确。
【11 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“In the midst of the Civil War,President Abraham Lincoln signed
a grant to protect Yosemite permanently”可知,内战期间,林肯总统就签署了一项条款,永久
保护约塞米蒂,由此可知,自内战期间起,约塞米蒂就得到了很好的保护,故 A 项正确。
【点睛】词义猜测题的难度较大,但一些表示转折、让步或者因果关系的词语会给出一些重
要暗示,例如本篇第 1 题,画线词前的“Although”表明前后是两种相反的结果,再结合画
线词后的“some of those explorers discovered a natural treasure”可知,尽管淘金热最终以许
多淘金者的失败而告终,但其中一些探索者发现了一个自然宝藏,由此可知画线词词义为
“失败”。
D
If you are taking vitamin supplements to reduce your risk of heart disease or cancer, a group
of health experts want you to know that those vitamins may actually increase your risk of cancer.
The US Preventive Services Task Force came to this conclusion after reviewing dozens of
studies.
Nearly half of adults in the US take at least one vitamin or mineral supplement on a regular
basis. These pills are advertised as a way to promote general health. In some cases, manufacturers
promote them as cancer fighters and heart protectors.
Studies in animals and in laboratory dishes suggest that oxidative (氧化性的) stress
contributes to diseases like cancer and heart disease. If so, there is a reason to believe that
antioxidants — including beta-carotene, vitamins A, C, and E — could be useful as preventive
medicines.
But when the Task Force examined the medical evidence on vitamins, it found “inadequate
(不充分的) evidence” to support the claims that vitamin and mineral supplements benefit healthy
adults.
“Cardiovascular (心血管的) disease and cancer have a significant health impact in America,
and we all want to find ways to prevent these diseases,” Dr. Virginia Moyer, who heads the Task
Force, said in a statement. But so far, she added, the medical evidence does not show that taking
vitamins is helpful in this regard.
However, the Task Force did find “adequate evidence” that people with a raised risk for lung
cancer actually increase their risk further by taking beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A.
The Task Force recommendations of taking vitamins regularly apply to healthy adults aged
50 and older who don’t have “special nutritional needs”. The advice does not apply to children,
women who are pregnant or may become pregnant, people with chronic illnesses, or people who
have to take supplements because they can’t get all their essential nutrients from their diet.
12. Studies in animals and in laboratory dishes find out________.
A. ample evidence that taking vitamins are helpful for treating lung cancer
B. cardiovascular disease spreads very fast in America
C. oxidative stress can lead to heart disease and cancer
D. people must take vitamins on a regular basis
13. What can we conclude from Task Force’s findings?
A. Scientists want to control cardiovascular disease.
B. In some regard, taking vitamins is not useful.
C. Manufacturers cannot produce medical-use vitamins.
D. Vitamins must be useful to prevent cancer and heart disease.
14. Who can take vitamins regularly according to the advice of the Task Force?
A. A 60-year-old healthy worker.
B. A 15-year-old boy with short-sightedness.
C. A 34-year-old pregnant lady.
D. A 40-year-old man who never eats vegetables or fruits.
15. What’s the best title for the text?
A. An Inside Look at Vitamins
B. Task Force: Ending to Vitamins
C. Vitamins: To Live or to Kill
D. Taking Vitamins to Prevent Cancer May Fail
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. D
【解析】
本文是一篇科普短文。以前人们人物服用维他命可以减低患心脏病和癌症的危险,但最近的
研究结果现实实际情况与原来观点相反,服用维他命并不能帮助降低患心脏病和癌症的危
险,反而会带来不好影响。
【12 题详解】
细节 理解题 。根据 第四段 第一句 Studies in animals and in laboratory dishes suggest that
oxidative (氧化性的) stress contributes to diseases like cancer and heart disease.(在动物和实验
室培养皿中的研究表明,氧化应激会导致癌症和心脏病等疾病)可知,氧化性压力困难会导
致心脏病和癌症。故 C 项正确。
【13 题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段 If you are taking vitamin supplements to reduce your risk of heart
disease or cancer, a group of health experts want you to know that those vitamins may actually
increase your risk of cancer.(如果你服用维生素补充剂以降低患心脏病或癌症的风险,一组健
康专家想让你知道,这些维生素实际上可能会增加患癌症的风险)可知,在某些方面,服用
维生素是没有用的,反而会带来不好影响。故 B 项正确。
【14 题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段 The Task Force recommendations of taking vitamins regularly apply
to healthy adults aged 50 and older who don’t have “special nutritional needs”. The advice does
not apply to children, women who are pregnant or may become pregnant, people with chronic
illnesses, or people who have to take supplements because they can’t get all their essential
nutrients from their diet. (工作组建议,50 岁以上、没有“特殊营养需求”的健康成年人应定
期服用维生素。这个建议不适用于儿童、怀孕或可能怀孕的妇女、患有慢性疾病的人,或者
那些因为无法从饮食中获得所有必需营养而不得不服用补充剂的人)及选项可知,根据工作
组的建议,一名 60 岁的健康工人可以定期服用维生素。故 A 项正确。
【15 题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段内容可知,以前人们人物服用维他命可以减低患心脏病和癌症
的危险,但最近的研究结果现实实际情况与原来观点相反,服用维他命并不能帮助降低患心
脏病和癌症的危险,反而会带来不好影响。由此可知,D. Taking Vitamins to Prevent Cancer
May Fail(服用维生素预防癌症可能会失败)适合做本文最佳标题。故 D 项正确。
第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 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。

【解析】
本文是说明文。文章讲述了如何提升每天的动力,达到自己的目标,收获人生的希望。
【16 题详解】
根据前文的“positive experiences can greatly improve our daily motivation”可知,积极的经历可
以大大提高我们的日常动力,所以能帮助我们达到目标和变成更好的人。故 C 项正确。
【17 题详解】
根据前文的“Having goals is vital. They are the key motivator that drives you to succeed.”可知,
有目标是至关重要的。它们是推动你成功的关键动力。因此此处用反证法(没有目标的人生
会是什么样子)证明有人生目标很重要,所以 D 项 A life without goals is like a boat without a
compass moving aimlessly.正确。
【18 题详解】
根据后文的“Breaking goal down into small steps will prevent you becoming overwhelmed”可
知,需要把目标分成小部分才能更好地去实现这个目标,所以F项 After setting a goal, you
must take small progressive steps toward achieving it.正确。
【19 题详解】
根据前文的“ you should remember that these hard times are temporary”可知,困难只是暂时的,
美好的日子马上就要来临,所以 B 项 Good times are always just around the corner for you.承接
上文,正确。
【20 题详解】
根据后文的“Your dreams and goals will never be realized unless you acquire a continuous drive”
可知,要想实现人生目标,就需要不停地努力,所以 G 项 If you want to achieve more in life,
you have to do whatever you can do to make it happen.正确。

这些活动面向北京的人群,为了增进他们的剪纸基本知识。分析句子可知,are open to the

第二节(满分 25 分)
47. 阅读下面短文, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。续
写的词数应为 150 左右。
Yoghurt
It was a rough week. The price of oil skyrocketed as the temperature dropped sharply in
Maine. We were looking at a high of eight degrees that week, and I had missed three days of work
so my paycheck was going to be lower than normal. I was stressed, to say the least. I shopped
strategically, looking for every possible way to cut pennies so I could buy groceries and keep the
house warm.
My eight-year-old son didn’t understand when I told him we were struggling that week. He
wanted a special kind of yoghurt, but I didn’t have the extra three dollars to buy it for him. It was
the kind of yoghurt with a cartoon kid riding a skateboard on the front of the box, and a mere two
spoonfuls in each cup. It was the kind of product that wastes a parent’s money and makes me hate
advertising.
I felt guilty as a parent when those big eyes looked at me with confusion, as if to say, “It’s
just yoghurt. What’s the big deal? ” So I found a way. I put something back as single mothers
often do. He got his yoghurt.
On the way driving back from the grocery store, I noticed a homeless man holding a sign by
the side of the road. My heart hurt, and I tried not to look at him. I watched people stay away from
him on the street and walk by without even meeting his eyes. My son didn’t seem to care much,
either. I looked at the man closely then— bare hands grasping a piece of cardboard, snot (鼻
涕)frozen to his face, a worn-out jacket. And there I was struggling because I had to buy oil and
groceries. But I decided to help him. I pulled over to the man and handed him a five-dollar bill.
Seeing this, my son became confused and surprised.
_______________________________________________________________________________

On that day, my son performed an act that most adults wouldn’t have done
_______________________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________
【答案】Seeing this, my son became confused and surprised. “Mum, why are you so generous to
this stranger while so mean to me when I asked for a yoghurt? ” I explained that if we were blind
to the poor man’s situation he would be freezing. He didn’t have a home or food to eat after all.
We could spare five dollars even if we were financially stressed. Finally my son nodded and fixed
his eyes on his yoghurt.
On that day, my son performed an act that most adults wouldn’t have done. He took his
yoghurt and handed it to the man outside his window. Even if it was a matter of a few spoonfuls of
yoghurt, it was all he had, and he gave it to someone who needed it more than he wanted it. He
showed me that I am doing well as a mother. There are always blessings to count if we open our
eyes, and we always have the opportunity to be a blessing to someone else.
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇读后续写。
【详解】通读短文可知,由于物价以及自己工作的原因,本周在经济上对于作者来说是艰难
的一周,作者和儿子在杂货店里购物,为了让儿子能买到他想买的酸奶。作者不得不放回去
一些已经购买的商品。从杂货店开车回来的路上,作者注意到一个无家可归的人在路边举着
一个牌子,尽管作者经济困难,还是给了这个无家可归的人 5 美元,短文续写由此展开。第
一段开头:看到这些,作者的儿子感到困惑和惊讶。所以短文要续写儿子与作者之间的对话,
以此介绍作者为什么要慷慨地给这个无家可归的人 5 美元,而对于儿子买酸奶时却对儿子如
此刻薄。第二段开头:那天,儿子做了一件大多数成年人不会做的事。所以短文要续写,儿
子将自己心爱的酸奶递给窗外的无家可归的人,以及作者的感悟。
【点睛】文章思路清晰,语言规范,段落整齐,语篇连贯,层次清晰。使用了较为高级的句
式: even if 引导的让步状语从句和 who 引导的定语从句 Even if it was a matter of a few
spoonfuls of yoghurt, it was all he had, and he gave it to someone who needed it more than he
wanted it.
高级句式的应用提升了写作的档次,整个短文显示出了作者高水平的英语表达能力。
