The scenery in Fiordland is nothing short of extremely beautiful, with steep mountains, wild waterfalls, and abundant rain forests. Being able to come back and forth in its deep bay attracts most of the visitors.‎ The area has some of the world’s greatest walks including the world famous Milford Track, which was described as the finest walk in the world in the early twentieth century.‎ Abel Tasman National Park Abel Tasman may be New Zealand’s smallest national park, but the attractions are huge. Located in one of New Zealand’s sunniest spots, the area also has the best beaches in the country.‎ The popular Abel Tasman Walk is a great way to see this park. It takes 3-5 days to complete. Sea taxis are also available and can drop you off at any number of beaches within the park.‎ Rotorua Accessible from New Zealand’s biggest city, Auckland, Rotorua is famous for its volcanic ‎ activities. Rotorua is also famous for its plentiful lakes which are great for swimming and fishing. The surrounding area contains plenty of native bushes and some famous walks.‎ Rotorua is also the best area in the country to experience and learn about Maori culture.‎ Mt Cook National Park Mt Cook as well as the surrounding area is an alpine(高山的) park within the World Heritage listed in South Westland. The biggest peaks in all of Australasia are here. The park doesn’t contain many trees or plants due to the altitude. Walks range from a twohour walk to difficult tracks suitable for experienced mountaineers only.‎ A helicopter or plane ride gives visitors excellent views of the mountains with the option of landing at the top of Tasman Glacier, a true permanent snowcovered alpine environment.‎ ‎36. The most impressive experience in Fiordland National Park may be________．‎ A. rock climbs B. forest camps C. water jumps D. boat trips ‎37.

D 37. B 38. C ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 本文是一篇广告布告类短文阅读。文章主要介绍了新西兰值得游玩的几个地方。‎ ‎【36题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据Fiordland National Park部分第一段Being able to come back and forth in its deep bay attracts most of the visitors.可知，能够在它的深海湾里来回穿梭会吸引大多数的游客；据此可以判断，在Fiordland 国家公园，令人印象最深刻的经历是乘船旅行。故选D。‎ ‎【37题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据Rotorua部分Rotorua is also the best area in the country to experience and learn about Maori culture.可知，Rotorua 是最好的学习毛利文化的地方，如果你对民间风俗感兴趣，可以去那里，故选B。‎ ‎【38题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据Mt Cook National Park最后一句A helicopter or plane ride gives visitors excellent views of the mountains with the option of landing at the top of Tasman Glacier, a true permanent snowcovered alpine environment.可知，乘坐一架直升机或飞机并选择在 Tasman Glacier 顶部着陆，可以让游客欣赏到山区的美景，Tasman Glacier 是真正的永久积雪覆盖的高山环境。据此可知，如果去 Mt Cook 国家公园，你可以登到 Tasman Glacier 顶部，故选C。‎ ‎【点睛】本文是一篇广告布告类短文阅读。广告类或布告类的文章主要考查学生根据问题迅速从文中定位、提取有效信息的能力。考生需要根据问题中的信息迅速定位到相关的广告板块，并从中寻找有用信息。例如小题1题干中The most impressive experience in Fiordland National Park，考生要迅速定位到文章Fiordland National Park部分，然后寻找到关键词attracts most of the visitors，从而得出答案。‎ B As I was thinking about language learning the other day, the image of baking bread came into my mind. I compared some of the exercises and drills that we put ourselves through in order to learn a language to the various ingredients that go into baking a loaf of fresh bread.‎ Real language learning takes place in human relationships. No one sits down and eats a cup of flour, even if he is hungry and in a hurry. You don’t become bilingual（双语的）by learning lists of vocabulary. You don’t become a speaker of a language by memorizing verb conjugations（动词的词形变化）and agreement rules. You become bilingual by entering a community that uses that other language as its primary means of communication.‎ I am not suggesting that we can make bread without ingredients. Flour is necessary, as are yeast, salt, water and other ingredients. Vocabulary is part of any language and will have to be learned. Grammatical rules exist in every language and cannot be ignored. But merely combining the appropriate ingredients in the recommended proportions does not result in bread. At best, you only end up with a ball of dough（面团）.‎ In order to get bread, you have to apply heat to the dough. And in language learning, that heat comes from the community. Anyone who has learned a second language has experienced that heat. It creeps up your neck when you ask the babysitter, “Have you already been eaten?” when you meant to say, “Have you already eaten?” When you try to say something quite innocent and the whole room bursts into laughter, you are experiencing the heat that turns raw dough into good bread.‎ Remember the old saying, “If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen”? This is where ‎ language learning often breaks down because we find the heat uncomfortable and we stop the baking process. In other words, we can’t stand the heat, so we get out of the kitchen.‎ However, the language learner who stays in the kitchen—in the heat—until the combined ingredients are thoroughly transformed will enjoy the richness of a quality loaf of bread. He said that he did not “get out of the kitchen” at the critical moment when the oven seemed too hot. The dedicated language learner knows that becoming bilingual cannot be achieved without the heat!‎ ‎39. The passage is mainly about _______.‎ A. how we can make baking bread with various ingredients B. how to become bilingual by communicating with others C. what an important role “heat” plays in learning a language D. what a high quality of bread you may achieve in the kitchen ‎40. You can become a speaker of a language by _______.‎ A. bearing millions of words and expressions in your mind B. using the language to communicate with those around you C. knowing verb conjugations and grammatical rules D. saying something innocent to be laughed at by others ‎41. What’s the purpose of illustration of the example — you ask the babysitter, “Have you already been eaten?” when you meant to say, “Have you already eaten?”?‎ A. To prove that you are sure to make some mistakes when you enter a community.‎ B. To show that you should combine the ingredients in the recommended proportions.‎ C. To prove that you may experience “heat” from the community in language learning.‎ D. To indicate that being bilingual calls for your courage, confidence and perseverance.‎ ‎42. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the necessity of baking bread and learning language?‎ A. Wonderful skills. B. Various ingredients.‎ C. Appropriate proportions. D. Uncomfortable heat.‎ ‎【答案】39. C 40. B 41. C 42. A ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇语言学习类短文阅读。文章作者用诙谐幽默的口吻对语言学习与烤面包进行了比较，并强调了“热度”在语言学习中是多么的作用。‎ ‎【39题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一句The dedicated language learner knows that becoming bilingual cannot be achieved without the heat!和全文内容可知，文章作者用诙谐幽默的口吻对语言学习与烤面包进行了比较，并强调了“热度”在语言学习中是多么的作用。故选C。‎ ‎【40题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第二段Real language learning takes place in human relationships.和You become bilingual by entering a community that uses that other language as its primary means of communication.可知，只有通过语言交流才能熟练掌握语言。故选B。‎ ‎【41题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章第三段And in language learning, that heat comes from the community. Anyone who has learned a second language has experienced that heat.可知，作者举例说明的目的是为了证明在语言学习中，其热度来自于社会交流。故选C。‎ ‎【42题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章作者对语言学习与烤面包进行了比较，在文章第三段提及到various ingredients和appropriate proportions的必要性，最后两段强调了uncomfortable heat的必要性。wonderful skills文章作者没有提及到。故选A。‎ C Wilderness ‎“In wilderness(荒野) is the preservation of the world.” This is a famous saying from a writer regarded as one of the fathers of environmentalism. The frequency with which it is borrowed mirrors a heated debate on environmental protection: whether to place wilderness at the heart of what is to be preserved. ‎ As John Sauven of Greenpeace UK points out, there is a strong appeal in images of the wild, the untouched; more than anything else, they speak of the nature that many people value most dearly. The urge to leave the subject of such images untouched is strong, and the danger exploitation(开发) brings to such landscapes(景观) is real. Some of these wildernesses also perform functions that humans need—the rainforests, for example, store carbon in vast quantities. To Mr.Sauven, these ”ecosystem services” far outweigh the gains from exploitation.‎ Lee Lane, a visiting fellow at the Hudson Institute, takes the opposing view. He acknowledges that wildernesses do provide useful services, such as water conservation. But that is not, he argues, a reason to avoid all human presence, or indeed commercial and industrial exploitation. There are ever more people on the Earth, and they reasonably and rightfully want to have better lives, rather than merely struggle for ‎ survival. While the ways of using resources have improved, there is still a growing need for raw materials, and some wildernesses contain them in abundance. If they can be tapped without reducing the services those wildernesses provide, the argument goes, there is no further reason not to do so. Being untouched is not, in itself, a characteristic worth valuing above all others.‎ I look forwards to seeing these views taken further, and to their being challenged by the other participants. One challenge that suggests itself to me is that both cases need to take on the question of spiritual value a little more directly. And there is a practical question as to whether wildernesses can be exploited without harm.‎ This is a topic that calls for not only free expression of feelings, but also the guidance of reason. What position wilderness should enjoy in the preservation of the world obviously deserves much more serious thinking.‎ ‎43. John Sauven holds that_____.‎ A. many people value nature too much B. exploitation of wildernesses is harmful C. wildernesses provide humans with necessities D. the urge to develop the ecosystem services is strong ‎44. What is the main idea of Para. 3?‎ A. The exploitation is necessary for the poor people.‎ B. Wildernesses cannot guarantee better use of raw materials.‎ C. Useful services of wildernesses are not the reason for no exploitation.‎ D. All the characteristics concerning the exploitation should be treated equally.‎ ‎45. What is the author’s attitude towards this debate?‎ A. Objective. B. Disapproving. C. Sceptical. D. Optimistic.‎ ‎46. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?‎ CP: Central Point P: Point Sp: Sub-point(次要点) : Conclusion A. B. C. D. ‎ ‎【答案】43. B 44. C 45. A 46. D ‎【解析】‎ 试题分析：本文客观阐述了不同的人对于怎么利用荒原持有的不同的观点。‎ ‎【43题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第二段these "ecosystem services" far outweigh the gains from exploitation.。得知John Sauven认为“生态系统服务”远比开发的利益重要得多，由此可推断他的观点是开发荒野有害。故选B 。‎ ‎【44题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据本段第二句和第三句是对另外一种观点的概括，意思是荒野的有益服务不能作为不开发的理由，故选C。‎ ‎【45题详解】‎ 作者态度题。据最后两段就可以看出，作者并没有直接表明自己的观点。只是比较客观的进行阐述。选A。‎ ‎【46题详解】‎ 文章结构题。文章第一段提出中心论点；第二、三两段分别阐述了两种不同的观点；第四段是作者自己的观点；最后一点是文章的结论。推出选D。‎ 考点：自然与社会类文章 D No one has a temper naturally so good, that it does not need attention and cultivation, and no one has a temper so bad, but that, by proper culture, it may become pleasant. One of the best disciplined tempers ever seen, was that of a gentleman who was naturally quick, irritable, rash, and violent; but, by taking care of the sick, and especially of mentally deranged(疯狂的) people, he so completely mastered himself that he was never known to be thrown off his guard.‎ There is no misery so constant, so upsetting, and so intolerable to others, as that of having a character which is your master. There are corners at every turn in life, against which we may run, and at which we may break out in impatience, if we choose.‎ Look at Roger Sherman, who rose from a humble occupation to a seat in the first Congress of the United States, and whose judgment was received with great respect by that body of distinguished men. He made himself master of his temper and cultivated it as a great business in life. There are one or two instances which show this part of his character in a light that is beautiful.‎ One day, after having received his highest honors, he was sitting and reading in his sitting room. A student, in a room close by, held a lookingglass in such a position as to pour the reflected rays of the sun directly in Mr. Sherman's face. He moved his chair, and the thing was repeated. A third time the chair was ‎ moved, but the lookingglass still reflected the sun in his eyes. He laid aside his book, went to the window, and many witnesses of the rude behavior expected to see the ungentlemanly student severely punished. He raised the window gently, and then—shut the window blind!‎ I can not help providing another instance of the power he had acquired over himself. He was naturally possessed of strong passions, but over these he at length obtained an extraordinary control. He became habitually calm and selfpossessed. Mr Sherman was one of those men who are not ashamed to maintain the forms of religion in their families. One morning he called them all together as usual to lead them in prayer to God. The “old family Bible” was brought out and laid on the table.‎ Mr Sherman took his seat and placed beside him one of his children, a child of his old age. The rest of the family were seated around the room, several of whom were now grownups. Besides these, some of the tutors of the college were boarders in the family and were present at the time. His aged mother occupied a corner of the room, opposite the place where the distinguished Judge sat.‎ At length, he opened the Bible and began to read. The child who was seated beside him made some little disturbance, upon which Mr Sherman paused and told it to be still. Again he continued but again he had to pause to scold the little offender, whose playful character would scarcely permit it to be still. At this time he gently tapped its ear. The blow, if blow it might be called, caught the attention of his aged mother, who now with some effort rose from the seat and tottered across the room. At length, she reached the chair of Mr Sherman, and in a moment, most unexpectedly to him, she gave him a blow on the ear with all the force she could gather. “There，” said she, “you strike your child, and I will strike mine.”‎ For a moment, the blood was seen mounting to the face of Mr Sherman. But it was only for a moment and all was calm and mild as usual. He paused; he raised his glasses; he cast his eye upon his mother; again it fell upon the book from which he had been reading. Not a word escaped him; but again he calmly pursued the service, and soon sought in prayer an ability to set an example before his household which should be worthy of their imitation. Such a victory was worth more than the proudest one ever achieved on the field of battle.‎ ‎47.

Few people read it for pleasure and modern poets are looked upon as odd creatures from a strange universe. In Western high schools, poetry is seldom taught because it is considered old-fashioned and not relevant to the needs of today’s students.‎ In China, however, poetry is still an important part of the curriculum and, with recent changes announced by the Ministry of Education, the number of poems students will have to memorize and recite is being increased from fourteen to seventy-two. Now, before you gasp in horror, let’s think about the reasons why studying so many poems, especially ancient poems, is important.‎ First of all, poetry is an essential part of traditional Chinese culture. It is a pathway to understanding your history and your society. It is also the key to understanding the thoughts and emotions that are common to everyone but which we may be unable to express—the joy of Li Bai dancing with the moon, for example. Everyone has feelings of joy, love, loneliness, sadness and even anger, and a good poem can put those emotions into words and bring us self-understanding.‎ Poems can also express beauty. In a few short lines, even something commonplace can become beautiful. Here is a poem called “Fog” by Carl Sandberg: The fog comes / on silent haunches (弓腰蹲着) / and then moves on. Yes, fog does move smoothly, silently and mysteriously like a cat, and Sandberg captures that feeling and image, and makes it beautiful.‎ Of course, to really appreciate poetry, it has to be really aloud. After all, a poem is really just a song without music. Most ancient poetry, especially Western poetry, was actually spoken before it was written. Take Homer’s Iliad (伊利亚德), the story of the Trojan War (特洛伊战争), for example. That epic saga (史诗般的故事) of Helen’s kidnapping and the war that followed was apparently told for hundreds of years in palaces, taverns (客栈) and on street corners before Homer wrote it down and was given credit for it.‎ The American poet Robert Frost said, “Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.” And poems are very concise—there is not a wasted word. You are lucky that you now have seventy-two poems to learn!‎ Passage outline Detailed information Awkward situation Poetry is thought to be ___51___ from the life of people and poets beyond the understanding of ordinary people.‎ China’s recent ___52___‎ ‎___53___the number of poems for school students to memorize and recite ‎___54___ behind Poetry is a reflection of Chinese culture.‎ Learning poems help with the ___55___ of history and society.‎ Poems enable people to express thoughts and feelings which would otherwise be ___56___ to express.‎ Poetry conveys the beauty that ___57___ in common things.‎ Poems use as ___58___ words as possible.‎ A tip on ___59___‎ Poetry is to read out.‎ Poems are songs without music;‎ Many ancient poems first appeared in ___60___ form.‎ Conclusion Chinese students should feel lucky to have seventy two poems to learn!‎ ‎【答案】51. far 52. measure 53. Increasing 54. Reasons 55. understanding 56. hard 57. exists/is 58. few 59. appreciation 60. spoken/oral ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇社会文化类阅读，主要介绍在中国，诗歌仍然是课程的重要组成部分。诗歌是学习中国传统文化不可缺少的一部分，它是了解中国历史和社会的一条途径。它也是理解思想和感情的关键，诗歌也可以表达美。当然，要真正享受诗歌，就必须大声朗诵。‎ ‎【51题详解】‎ 归纳题。根据文章第二段Few people read it for pleasure and modern poets are looked upon as odd creatures from a strange universe. In Western high schools, poetry is seldom taught because it is considered old-fashioned and not relevant to the needs of today’s students.可以归纳出，诗歌被认为远离人们的生活。短语far from远离。故填far。‎ ‎【52题详解】‎ 归纳题。根据表格后面的详细信息及文章第三段内容可知，这里为中国最近所采取的措施。故填measure。‎ ‎【53题详解】‎ 词形转化题。根据文章第三段the number of poems students will have to memorize and recite is being increased from fourteen to seventy-two.中的动词increased提示，所填词位于句首且作主语，故用动名词形式，注意首字母大写。故填Increasing。‎ ‎【54题详解】‎ 原词再现题。根据文章第三段Now, before you gasp in horror, let’s think about the reasons why studying so many poems, especially ancient poems, is important.原词reasons，注意首字母大写。故填Reasons。‎ ‎【55题详解】‎ 原词再现题。根据文章第四段It is a path to understanding your history and your society动词understand提示可知，这里用其名词形式。故填understanding。‎ ‎【56题详解】‎ 词义转换题。根据文章第四段It is also the key to understanding the thoughts and emotions that are common to everyone but which we may be unable to express中短语be unable to转换为be hard to。故填hard。‎ ‎【57题详解】‎ 词义转换题。根据文章第五段In a few short lines, even something commonplace can become beautiful.平凡的事物也可以变得很美。分析所填词句子可知，定语从句缺少谓语动词，这里要表达“美存在常见的事物中”。故填exists/is。‎ ‎【58题详解】‎ 词义转换题。根据文章最后一段And poems are very concise—there is not a wasted word.可知，诗歌非常简洁。所以用few words。故填few。‎ ‎【59题详解】‎ 词性转化题。根据文章倒数第二段Of course, to really appreciate poetry, it has to be really aloud.中动词appreciate转化为名词appreciation。故填appreciation。‎ ‎【60题详解】‎ 原词再现题。根据文章倒数第二段Most ancient poetry, especially Western poetry, was actually spoken before it was written.中原词spoken，在所填空中作形容词，修饰名词form ‎，表示“口头形式”，也可以用其近义词oral。故填spoken/oral。‎ ‎【点睛】本题考查任务型阅读，要求考生根据篇章内容和所给题目，进行快速阅读，锁定关键词。考查学生分清条理和查找关键词的能力。这种题目的难度不大，需要根据正确理解文章所说的内容，确定关键句子，找出关键词。有时也需要因为所填内容的限制，将关键词变形，例如小题3，原文给出的是动词appreciate，而题中接在介词on后，需要用名词appreciation，故将appreciate要变成appreciation。‎ 第四部分 ‎ 根据中文提示或首字母完成句子，每空一词，并注意单词的正确形式。‎ ‎61.

Or is it going to come back to worry me? The questions get doubly complex when they involve children. A parent on average will post almost 1，000 photos of a child online before the child turns five, according to a ‎ recent survey. Are parents putting kids at risk by oversharing on social media?‎ Here are the selections of the views.‎ Lauren Apfel(US)‎ The big reason to share is to build a community. I live, for example, thousands of miles from my family. In this atmosphere of modern parenthood, we all struggle to make it through the day, and the Internet has become a source of support. In the early years of mothering twins, one of the things that brought me the most happiness was posting pictures of them on Facebook. Sharing those photos and engaging with an online community was a lifeline.‎ Dracarys(China)‎ I don't post pictures of my kids online because I don't like when friends of mine post photos of me online. It feels way too public and exhibitionist to me. So I treat my kids the way I want to be treated. That is probably what the parents who are comfortable with online photos think, too, when they decide to put the photos out there.‎ ‎【写作内容】‎ ‎1. 用约30个单词写出上文概要。‎ ‎2. 用约120个单词阐述你对家长在社交网络上分享孩子照片的看法，并用2—3个理由或论据支撑你的理由。‎ ‎【写作要求】‎ ‎1. 写作过程中不能直接引用原文语句。‎ ‎2. 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。‎ ‎3. 不必写标题 ‎【评分标准】 内容完整，语言规范，语篇连贯 ‎__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【答案】Possible version 1：‎ While it is common for a parent to post children's photos nowadays, people take different attitudes toward it. Some think it's beneficial while others are anxious about it.‎ In my opinion, posting children's photos online is beneficial for people and makes a child better known. As a result, he is likely to have more chances to be successful in the future. It will also be easier for parents to communicate with other friends, for they have more to share with each other. Besides, it's a way to strengthen an online social circle and connect with people we don't know before.‎ Although there may be some disadvantages that come with posting children's photos, it's not necessary to be too cautious about it. We should have confidence in our society because we won't throw away the apple because of the core. ‎ Possible version 2：‎ While it's common for a parent to post children's photos nowadays, people take different attitudes toward it. Some think it's beneficial while others are anxious about it.‎ In my opinion, it is not always the smartest or safest thing to do so. What parents view as delightful photos may be interpreted differently by others and give a false image of what the child is really like. Besides, there is a growing crime called “digital kidnapping” in which individuals or companies steal children's images and use them in advertisements or other commercial activities. Apart from the obvious dangers of identity theft, it can result in them being reshared and altered by other online users without permission, which may end up damaging their school status or future career prospects. ‎ In short, although sharing children's photos online does have advantages, parents should be cautious about it.‎ ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 本书面表达属于读写任务写作。考生先要概括文章概要，然后对家长在社交网络上分享孩子照片发表看法。‎ ‎【详解】本书面表达属于读写任务写作。动笔前，首先要认真阅读原文，并理解其内容。其次，认真看清题目要求，在稿子上列出提纲。最后，根据要求写出文章。这篇书面表达写作内容：1. 用约30个单词写出上文概要。2. 用约120个单词阐述你对家长在社交网络上分享孩子照片的看法，并用2—3个理由或论据支撑你的理由。写作要求：1. 写作过程中不能直接引用原文语句。2. ‎ 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。3. 不必写标题。写作的时候，要按照要点去表达，不能有遗漏，要注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系。尽量使用自己会的单词、词组和句型，同时也要注意使用一些高级语法和句型，使自己的文章更有文采。‎ ‎【点睛】高分句型：1. In my opinion, posting children's photos online is beneficial for people and makes a child better known.这句话运用了动名词作主语。‎ ‎2.
