A
Resorts of every kind have sprung up to cater to the Englishman need to spend a part of the year, however briefly, by the seaside. No town in Britain is more than eighty miles from the sea and there are seaside resorts all round the coast. On a summer Sunday most of the roads that lead to the sea axe congested (拥挤) with cars full of people eager to get a breath of sea air. In the evening when everyone is full of food, ice-cream and lollipops, there is the long slow drive home on roads crowded with returning cars.
Brighton
Brighton is one of the best-known south coast resorts and is very popular for day trip excursions.
It is only fifty miles from London and can be reached by fast train in an hour. At the weekend the pebbled beaches are thronged with people sunbathing or picking their way to the water’s edge for a dip.
Bournemouth
Located a hundred miles from London, the beaches are wide and sandy. White houses line the cliff tops and narrow valleys, densely wooded with pine trees, reach down to the shore. The area near to the town of Torquay on the Devon coast is sometimes called Britains Riviera and the climate is so mild that palm trees grow along the sea front.
Blackpool
On the north-west coast, a popular resort for the people in the industrial north, Blackpool is a gay, noisy town, famous for its amusement facilities and the magical lights. At night people travel from miles around to see the extravaganza of lights decorating the sea front.
Southend
On the east coast at the mouth of the Thames, Southend is, like Brighton, one of the favorite resorts of Londoners. The pier here is the longest in Britain and offers a great variety of differing entertainments.
1. Why do people often have a long slow drive home on roads in summer?
A. Because it is extremely far from the sea.
B. Because too many returning cars often make a traffic jam.
C. Because people are full of food, ice-cream and lollypops.
D. Because people are attracted in the resorts so they leave slowly.
2. Which resort is famous for its entertainments and grand lights?
A. Bournemouth. B. Blackpool.
C. Brighton. D. Southend.
3. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. There are palm trees growing near Bournemouth.

In the evening when everyone is full of food, ice-cream and lollypops, there is the long slow drive home on roads crowded with returning cars”得知夏天因为返程车辆致使路上拥堵。故选B。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Blackpool部分中的“ On the north-west coast, a popular resort for the people in the industrial north, Blackpool is a gay, noisy town, famous for its amusement facilities and the magical lights”得知,Blackpool以其娱乐设施和奇妙壮丽的灯光而著名。故选B 。

Do you have a spare room in your house? What about a driveway for your car? Both of these can help you make money.Many people who are feeling the pinch are taking advantage of what’s been called the “sharing economy”.
Perhaps the best-known example of a company in this field is Airbnb---an American web business which allows you to rent out your spare room to holidaymakers.It says it operates in 34,000 cities and it has over 1,500,000 listings.It seems to have concerned the market!
A British company is doing something with parking spaces.JustPark’s founder, Anthony Eskinazi, says ,“When I had the original idea,Ispotted a driveway close to a sports stadium.It would have been so convenient if I could have just parked in that driveway rather than in commercial car park.” And he has a big clientele(客户):around 20,000 people have advertised their spaces on the site,and he says around half a million drivers use it.There are other sites doing very similar things,like Uber and Lyft---these let drivers share their cars with other passengers.Any driver knows how valuable a place to park is .A church near Kings Cross in central London has apparently made over
£200,000 by renting out space in its yard to travelers!
Because this is a new business world,those rules aren’t there yet and many people are happy to share...as long as it pays!
But the sharing economy has its critics:the competitors of these new companies.People who run things like traditional B&B, commercial car parks and taxi services are afraid of ending up out of pocket.And there is another issue:regulations on these new business are unclear.How will renting out your driveway affect your neighbor?
4. What does the underlined phrase “feeling the pinch” probably mean?
A. Lacking in money B. Full of curiosity
C. Willing to help others D. Unsatisfied with their life
5. Who may be against the sharing economy?
A. A taxi driver who can’t find a a parking place B. A priest in the church near Kings Cross
C. A traveller who needs accomodiation D. A well-known high-end holiday hotel
6. Why are many people pleased to share according to paragraph 4?
A. They can gain huge profits B. They needn’t pay any fee
C. There are few rules to limit them D. The new business has no risks
7. Which of the following words can best describe the booming business?
A. Creative and developed B. Competitive but unpractical
C. Effective and worrying D. Traditional and acceptable
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. C
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一种新的租赁形式,即把家里空闲的地方租赁出去。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。通过Both of these can help you make money(这两种方法都能帮你赚钱。)这句话推出横线处的句子Many people who are feeling the pinch are taking advantage of what's been called the "sharing economy"可知,许多……的人正在利用所谓的“共享经济”,结合语境可知,这里表示缺钱,feeling the pinch指的是那些缺钱的人。故选A。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。由最后一段People who run things like traditional B&B, commercial car parks and taxi services are afraid of ending up out of
pocket.(经营传统的B&B、商业停车场和出租车服务的人担心最后会赔钱。)可推断,A well-known high-end holiday hotel(一家知名的高端度假酒店)可能反对共享经济,故选D。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的Because this is a new business world,those rules aren't there yet and many people are happy to share-as long as it pays!这句话告诉我们这种共享经济由于是新事物而且没有规则约束,受到很多人的欢迎。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。文章介绍里一种出租自己闲置物品的赚钱途径即共享经济,可以带来利益,但在最后一段regulations on these new businesses are unclear对这个新行业的规则还不明确。所以确定答案为Effective but worrying。故选C。
C
This could be the perfect gift for the partner, who embarrasses you on the dance floor. Smart socks, which can teach to dance, may be the answer for anyone with two left feet.
The socks have been developed as a running tool to help runners improve their skills. Thanks to the socks, users can accurately record not only how far and fast they run but also how well. It means the user maximizes their performance, and reduces damage to body and prevents hurt. The hi-tech socks are made of special fibers that watch the movements of your feet. They look, feel and can be washed like normal clothes.
Sensors (传感器) record each movement and send it by an ankle transmitter (脚踝发射器) to a smart phone. Then a “virtual coach” application shows the information and can tell the user what they are doing wrong, and help to improve skill in any task with feet.
The socks should be useful to athletes and weekend joggers. “People think running is so easy and of course everybody can do it but not necessarily safely and well,” Dr. Davide Vigano said. A recent study showed that between 60 and 80 percent of runners got hurt per year. This is pretty much more than any other human activity. Researchers say the technology can also be developed to teach people how to dance, play sports such as golf, or even to help to teach women to walk better in high heels.
Mr. Vigano said, “People could all benefit from the idea. We have had interest from all sorts of sports, like skiing, football, cycling and golf. Anything where you have to use your feet can use it. It could even be put in high heels to help women walk in them safely.”
Socks are just the start, and the technology could be used in gloves, hats and boots. The socks,
anklet and software package, are expected to be sold for around£120, which will go on sale in March.
8. What does the underlined part “anyone with two left feet” refer to?
A. People who are disabled.
B. People who are interested in dancing.
C. People who are not good at dancing.
D. People who invented the socks.
9. What’s special about fibers that the socks are made of?
A. They feel much softer than normal clothes.
B. They can monitor the movement of feet.
C. They are expensive to produce.
D. They act as a smart phone for users.
10. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the socks?
A. They can improve the skill of running.
B. They can help women walk better in high heels.
C. They can teach people to dance well.
D. They can be worn for days without washing.
11. According to Dr. Vigano, ________.
A. everyone can make good use of the smart socks
B. users can run as fast as they like with the socks
C. 60 to 80 percent of runners would like to buy the smart socks
D. no runners will get hurt, thanks to the socks
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍一种即将上市的高科技袜子,它可以帮助人们跳舞、走路、跑步等各种体育活动。
【8题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线部分前的This could be the perfect gift for the partner, who embarrasses you on the dance floor.可知,这可能是送给在舞池里让你尴尬的舞伴的完美礼物。由此可知,划线部分指的是“不擅长跳舞的人”。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的The hi-tech socks are made of special fibers that watch the movements of your feet.可知,这种高科技的袜子是由特殊纤维制成的,可以观察你的脚的运动。由此可知,制成这种袜子的原料纤维能够监控你的脚步移动。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知,这种袜子可以帮助运动员和跑者避免受伤、教人们跳舞以及教穿高跟鞋的女性走路,并没有提到这种袜子可以穿很多天都不用洗。故选D。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的People could all benefit from the idea. We have had interest from all sorts of sports, like skiing, football, cycling and golf. Anything where you have to use your feet can use it.可知,人们都可以从这个想法中受益。我们对各种运动都有兴趣,比如滑雪、足球、自行车和高尔夫球。任何需要用到脚的地方都可以用。由此可知,Vigano博士认为每个人都可以充分利用这款智能袜子。故选A。
D
Apple announced its new iPhones last week, but competitors’ mobile phones can do many of the same things for less money.
The new iPhone 8 and X have wireless charging, edge-to-edge glass screen and double cameras. But all of these features are already available in smart phones from China’s Huawei and Oppo, and Korea’s Samsung. While Apple asks buyers to pay $1,000 for its high-end model, some Asian phone makers can offer similar features for less.
At one time, Chinese manufacturers copied features and designs from others to produce low-cost phones. But they have now added high-end features to their phones and they control nearly half the global mobile phone market.
Media MarktSaturn is Europe’s biggest electronics seller. A spokesperson for the store told Reuters that,“Huawei is seen as a relevant competitor to Apple and Samsung by covering all major price points and placing big investments in marketing and sales. ’’ She also said that the Chinese companies Huawei, ZTE, Lenovo and TCL were among the top-10 best-selling smart phones in its stores.
Chinese manufacturers’ fast growth has been fueled by strong sales in China. But they now export 40 percent of their smart phones. That is almost double the number from just three years ago, according to the Hong Kong investment company CLSA.
Huawei is currently the world’s third largest phone maker behind Samsung and Apple. According to research company Canalys, the Chinese company is getting closer to second-place Apple and might overtake it later this year. Huawei plans to show its top-of-the-line Mate 10 phone on Oct. 16. The phone will have artificial intelligence features such as instant translation and image recognition and will cost less than $1,000.
Other Chinese companies are looking to enter the high-end smart phone market.
12. What is the text mainly about?
A. Smart phone’s manufacturers. B. Apple smart phone’s features.
C. Asian phone makers’ fast growth. D. Competition among Asian phone makers.
13. Which is NOT among the top 3 phone makers in the world?
A. TCL. B. Samsung.
C. Apple. D. Huawei.
14. What do we know from the text?
A. Huewei will have overtaken Apple by later 2017.
B. Chinese makers’ phones with high-end features cost less.
C. The top-10 smart phones are to enter the high-end competition.
D. 40 percent of Asian smart phones are exported now.
15. What is the writer’s attitude towards Asian phone makers?
A. Doubtful. B. Concerned.
C. Optimistic. D. Uncertain.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C

Asian phone makers can offer similar features for less.可知新款iPhone 8 和 X 拥有无线充电、无边框屏幕和双摄像头。但是这些功能已经在中国的华为、OPPO和韩国的三星智能手机上得到应用。当苹果为其高端机型标出1000美元的售价时,一些亚洲手机制造商可以用更少的钱提供类似功能。可以推断出本文主要讲述了亚洲手机制造商之间的竞争。故选D。

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。
Boosting(促进) your Brain Power
Who hasn’t wished that they were just a little smarter? Maybe you’re in school and just want to get a better grade on a test. ___16___ Here are some ways you can go about boosting your brainpower.
Sleep is one of the easiest things to do, yet one of the ones that most of us don’t do. We live in a busy age and often it seems that we don’t have enough time to get everything done. So many of us sacrifice our hours of sleep to accomplish our daily tasks. ___17___
Read a book. Being smarter is not only about thinking but knowledge plays a big part in it, too. Reading helps your brain stay active.___18___ Think of it as exercise for the brain.
Try turning off that television set and going for a walk. A walk will stimulate your body and relax your mind. Just as watching too much TV can hurt your body, it also causes your brain to slow down as well.
___19___ There is a big difference between knowing something and being able to teach it to someone else. There is nothing like trying to break something down into simpler terms for others to help you understand it better than you did before.
Work on a puzzle. It can be anything from the newspaper crossword or the new Sudoku puzzle. Puzzles help you use your brain to figure out the answers.___20___ Your brain needs exercise just like
your body does to be able to function in top form.
So go out there and boost your brainpower, your mind will thank you.
A. The more you read, the more you know, and the smarter you will be.
B. By writing about things you know, it helps you to understand them better.
C. Crossword puzzles also have the added benefit of increasing your vocabulary and knowledge.
D. Maybe you want to show your boss that you are good enough to get a promotion.
E. Giving your body the rest it needs every night can boost your ability to function at your best the next day.
F. Skipping meals can make it harder for you to think and perform at your best.
G. Learn something new and then teach someone else how to do it.
【答案】16. D 17. E 18. A 19. G 20. C
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一些提高脑力的方法:1、好好休息;2、学习一些新的东西,然后教别人如何去做;3、做一个益智游戏。
【16题详解】
上文提示“也许你还在上学,只是想在考试中取得更好的成绩。”承接上文,D项Maybe you want to show your boss that you are good enough to get a promotion.(也许你想让你的老板知道你有足够的能力升职。)切题。副词Maybe将该项与上文紧密连在一起,故选D。
【17题详解】
上文提示“很多人为了完成日常任务而牺牲了睡眠时间。”承接上文,E项 Giving your body the rest it needs every night can boost your ability to function at your best the next day.(让你的身体得到所需的休息可以增强你第二天发挥最佳功能的能力。)切题。故选E。
【18题详解】
上文提示“阅读帮助你的大脑保持活跃。”承接上文,A项The more you read, the more you know, and the smarter you will be.(你读得越多,知道的越多,你就会越聪明。)切题。该项中的the smarter与上文中的helps your brain stay active相吻合。故选A。
【19题详解】
此空位于句首。根据下文提示“知道某件事和能够把它教给别人之间是有很大的区别。”承接下文,G项 Learn something new and then teach someone else how to do it.(
学习新东西,然后教别人怎么做。)切题。故选G。
【20题详解】
上文提示“做一个益智游戏.益智游戏可以帮助你用你的大脑找出答案。”承接上文,C项Crossword puzzles also have the added benefit of increasing your vocabulary and knowledge.(填字游戏也有增加你的词汇和知识的额外好处。)切题。关键词also将该项和上文紧密连在一起,故选C。
【点睛】做七选五时“当心文中also”,also是“也”的意思,这就说明前文一定存在它的一个分支了,本题第5小题,前文交代“Puzzles help you use your brain to figure out the answers.”重点就三个单词“Puzzles help you”,此时在空中填上“Crossword puzzles also have the added benefit of increasing your vocabulary and knowledge.”,(关键词also have the added benefit of)这样一对应就很工整了。当然“also”只是一个代表罢了,可以表示递进的词还有很多:what’ more, besides, in addition等等。
