When I was 12 years old, I already knew that my teen years were going to be the worst years of my life. I was a total outsider, bullied(欺凌) at school. I felt completely alone in my small town.
But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose.

Yoga is an ancient physical and spiritual practice originating in India. The word “yoga” comes from Sanskrit(梵文) and means to join or to unite, symbolizing the union of body and mind. Today it is practiced in various forms around the world and continues to grow in popularity. Recognizing its universal appeal, the United Nations declared 21 June as the International Day of Yoga in 2014 to raise awareness worldwide of the many benefits of practicing yoga.
Yoga is an invaluable gift from an ancient tradition. It’s not just about exercise but a way to discover the sense of oneness with yourself nature and the world. There is no written record of who invented yoga. Yoga practitioners(从业者) passed down the principles to their students. The earliest written record of yoga is generally believed to have been written by Patanjali, an Indian master who lived somewhere between 2,000 and 2,500 years ago.
Various yoga types give you multiple choices. Hatha yoga is the most widely practiced type and is excellent for beginners. It is gentle with slow and smooth movements. Kundalini yoga combines a singing session besides body and mental control. Bikram yoga is practiced in a heated room. It is to loosen muscles and to sweat to clean the body and remove symptoms of disease and pain. Ashtanga yoga is taught as a difficult workout where you move quickly from one gesture to another to build strength and patience.
In recent years, the World Health Organization has urged countries to help their citizens reduce physical inactivity, which is among the top ten leading causes of death worldwide, and a key risk factor for non-communicable diseases, such as cancer and diabetes. Yoga is a proper exercise. It is known for its ability to ease stress and anxiety. It may also help reduce several risk factors for heart diseases and promote a better sleep.
28. Why did the United Nations set the International Day of Yoga?
A. To promote the research into Sanskrit.
B. To help people know more about India.
C. To popularize Yoga practice worldwide.
D. To give a declaration on cultural diversity.
29. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The principles of yoga. B. The history of yoga.
C. The benefits of yoga. D. An Indian yoga master.
30. What will you choose if you’re looking for a challenging exercise?
A. Hatha yoga. B. Kundalini yoga.
C. Bikram yoga. D. Ashtanga yoga.
31. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

C. Little or no exercise puts people’s health at risk.
D. Yoga can be a cure for many kinds of diseases.

Next time you raise an eyebrow at the views of your friend, brother, sister or colleague, remember they could be helping to make you smarter. New research shows that intelligence is not fixed but can be improved throughout adulthood by family members, bright mates and intellectually challenging careers. The study challenges the commonly held belief that intelligence is fixed by the age of about 18.
Scientific consensus(共识) suggests intelligence is controlled by genes, with environmental factors such as schooling and nutrition playing a part up to this age. After this point, IQ scores become steady. But James Flynn, professor at the University of Otago in New Zealand, argues that people can “upgrade” their intelligence throughout their lives. He believes intellectual stimulation(刺激) from other people is important as “the brain seems to be rather like a muscle—the more you use it, the stronger it gets”. However, the opposite is also true—so people who share a home or workplace with the intellectually challenged risk seeing their IQ levels nosedive as a result.
Professor Flynn analyzed US intelligence tests from the last 65 years and created new IQ “age tables”. He found a bright ten-year-old with brothers and sisters of average intelligence will suffer a five to ten point IQ disadvantage compared to a similar child with equally bright brothers and sisters. However, children with a low IQ could gain six to eight points by having brighter brothers and sisters and special educational treatment to help pull them up.
Professor Flynn concluded that although genetics and early life experiences determine about 80% of intelligence, the remaining 20% is linked to lifestyle. This means people can raise their IQ, or allow it to fall, by ten points or more. He suggests the best way to improve IQ levels is to
socialize with bright friends, and find an intellectually challenging job.
32. What do people commonly believe?
A. People’s IQ levels fall as they get older and older.
B. It’s wise for people to share family members’ views.
C. The intelligence changes no more during adulthood.
D. Doing challenging deeds is good for one’s intelligence.
33. The underlined word “nosedive” in Paragraph 2 most probably means .
A. vary B. fall C. change D. develop
34. Which of the following can help improve one’s intelligence according to Professor Flynn?
A. Staying with smart people. B. Making many friends.
C. Doing exercise every day. D. Learning from parents.
35. The purpose of the text is to .
A. persuade B. advertise C. entertain D. inform

Most of us have recently experienced quarantine(隔离) to minimize the risk of meeting somebody who may be carrying the virus. It is certain 61 being under quarantine is no fun. However, with our access to food, 62 (deliver) services and the entertainment 63 (offer) by the internet, we’re actually very lucky. Let’s take a quick look at the history of quarantines.
The idea of quarantining sick people dates 64 ancient times. Yet the word “quarantine” first came into use in the 14th century Europe during the Black Death. People were dropping like flies from the mysterious disease, and as the death toll climbed into the millions — eventually killing 65 (approximate) half of the European population, cities began to take 66 (measure) to protect their citizens. The port city of Venice, Italy, was an important trading center with ships 67 (come) from all corners of the Earth every day. If a ship 68 (suspect) to be harboring the plague(瘟疫), it was sent to 69 offshore quarantine and ordered to wait there for 40 days when those abroad either recovered, or 70 (likely), died. The waiting period gave rise to the term quarantinario, from the Italian word for 40.

25.推理判断题。由第二段“But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my
problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness in the face of so much anger made me feel like my life had a greater purpose.”可知,但是在我14岁的时候开始做志愿者工作,我把自己的问题变成了帮助别人的热情。面对如此多的愤怒,我有机会表达善意,这让我觉得我的生活有一个更大的目标。因此推断参加志愿活动给“我”提供了表达友善的机会,让“我”感觉到生活有更大的意义。因此答案为B。

29.主旨大意题。根据第二段内容可知,瑜伽是来自古老传统的宝贵礼物。这不仅是运动,还是发现自己与自然和世界的一体感的一种方式。谁发明的瑜伽并没有书面记录。瑜伽从业者将原理传给了学生。人们普遍认为,最早的瑜伽的书面记录是由居住在2000至2500年前的印度大师Patanjali撰写的。即第二段讲的是瑜伽的历史。故选B。
30.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Ashtanga yoga is taught as a difficult workout where you
move quickly from one gesture to another to build strength and patience.”可知,阿斯汤加瑜伽被认为是一项艰苦的锻炼,让你从一种姿势快速移至另一种姿势,以增强力量和培养耐性。因此如果你正在寻找具有挑战性的锻炼,你可以选择阿斯汤加瑜伽。故选D。

D
【答案】32-35 CBAD
【解析】研究表明,智商不是固定的,在成年之后,你的家人、聪明的同事、对智力有挑战性的职业都会使你的智商提高。

33.词义猜测题。由第二段内容可知,James Flynn认为,大脑就像肌肉一样,你用的越多,它就变得越强。来自别人的智商方面的刺激对智商的提高至关重要。由此可以推知,和智力有缺陷的人相处会降低你的智力。故画线单词意思意为“下降”,故选B。
34.推理判断题。根据最后一段“This means people can raise their IQ, or allow it to fall, by ten points or more. He suggests the best way to improve IQ levels is to socialize with bright friends, and find an intellectually challenging job.”可知,Professor Flynn认为,聪明的家人、聪明的同事、对智力有挑战性的职业都会使你的智商提高。要多与聪明人在一起。故选A。

41.考查副词。A. still:仍然;B. little:几乎不;C. already:已经;D. indeed:的确。根据but可知,前后有转折含义:养老院的老人似乎需要帮助,但当时“我”几乎不知道(帮助老人)这件事也将帮到“我”自己。故选B。

44.考查动词。A. continued:继续;B. expected:期盼;C. agreed:同意;D. started:开始。在“我”(给她们的指甲)上新颜色的时候,一位老妇人开始向“我”讲述自己的隐痛。上下文没有提示作者主动要求听取老人的故事,因此不存在“同意”。故选D。

46.考查固定短语。A. at least:至少;B. more or less:或多或少;C. in relief:欣慰;D. in vain:徒劳。根据下文“with some of her past pains taken off her mind”可知,倾诉过之后,老人卸下了一些过去的痛苦,因此推知,她如释重负地笑了。故选C。
47.考查动词。A. inspired:鼓舞;B. reminded:提醒;C. moved:移动;D. puzzled:困惑。“我”实实在在地帮助了别人,这个事实让“我”受到了鼓舞。故选A。

49.考查名词。A. chance:机会;B. impression:印象;C. difference:不同;D. decision:决定。“我”意识到自己简单的行为,比如仅仅是倾听,都能对他人的生活产生影响。make a difference意为“起作用,有影响”。故选C。

53.考查名词性从句。A. when:当……时候;B. why:为什么;C. what:什么;D. that:只起连接作用,没有含义。根据下文“her daughter must have graduated decades ago”(她的女儿一定已经在几十年前就毕业了)推知,这位上了年纪的老妇人把发生过的事当作将要发生的事,给“我”讲她13岁的女儿将要在今年从中学毕业。故选D。
54.考查动词。A. convincing:信服;B. knowing:知道;C. indicating:表明;D. persuading:说服。根据上文“I didn’t know what to do but nod and listen”可知,“我”不知道该做些什么,只能一边点头,一边听着,因为“我”知道她的女儿一定已经在几十年前就毕业了。故选B。

第二节 语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
61. that 62. delivery 63. offered 64. from 65. approximately
66. measures 67. coming 68. was suspected 69. an 70. more likely
【解析】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了隔离感染病毒的人的想法是如何产生的,它源于14世纪欧洲的黑死病,为保护人们的生命,城市采取了隔离措施。
61.考查主语从句的连接词。句意:可以肯定的是,隔离是没有乐趣的。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导主语从句,it是形式主语,从句中语意和成分都是完整的,应使用that引导主语从句。故填that。
62.考查名词。句意:但是,幸运的是,我们可以通过互联网订购食物,还可以享受互联网提供的送货服务和娱乐服务。deliver的名词作定语修饰services,意为“送货服务”,它是不可数名词,不需要变复数。故填delivery。
63.考查过去分词。offer在句子中不是谓语动词,entertainment承受offer的动作,因此offer使用过去分词。此处为“with+名词+过去分词”的结构。故填offered。
64.考查固定短语。句意:隔离病人的想法可以追溯到远古时代。date from是固定短语,意为“追溯到”。故填from。
65.考查副词。句意:人们在这种神秘疾病中像苍蝇一样死去,死亡人数攀升至数百万,最终造成约一半欧洲人口丧生,城市开始采取措施保护其公民。approximate的副词在句子中作状语修饰killing。故填approximately。
66.考查名词的数。take measures是固定短语,意为“采取措施”,measure(措施)是可数名词。故填measures。
67.考查非谓语动词。句意:意大利的港口城市威尼斯是重要的贸易中心,每天都有来自地球各个角落的船只。此处为“with+名词+现在分词”的结构,ships发出come的动作,因此come应该使用现在分词的形式。故填coming。
68.考查时态和语态。句意:如果怀疑有船感染了瘟疫,则将其送到离岸隔离区,并下令在那里等待40天,以等待其康复或死亡。本句描述的是过去的事情,从句的谓语动词使用一般过去时,主语a ship为单数意义,动词使用单数形式并且主语承受suspect的动作,因此suspect还要使用被动语态。故填was suspected。
69.考查冠词。此处表示泛指意义,“一个离岸隔离区”,offshore是以元音音素开头的单词,应使用不定冠词an。故填an。
70.考查副词的比较级。either和or连接的词语recovered和died具有相反的意义,感染瘟疫的人是很可能死去的,此处使用比较级表示死亡的可能性之大。故填more likely。

第一节 短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
1.第一句,while改为when
2.第一句,a改为the
3.第二句,fill改为filled
4.第二句,another改为other
5.第四句,is改为are
6.第五句,在patiently后加to

【解析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要叙述了作者带弟弟去邮局,看到墙上通缉犯的照片之后和作者之间发生的啼笑皆非的对话。
1.考查状语从句连词。根据“when+非延续动词/延续动词,while+延续动词”这个规则可知此处应将while改为when,因为took him to the post office(带他去邮局)是非延续动作。故将while改为when。
2.考查冠词。根据固定短语for the first time(第一次)可知,此处应用定冠词。故将a改为the。
3.考查时态。本文讲述过去的事情,所以应该用一般过去时。故将fill改为filled。
4.考查不定代词。句意:当我填写回执单的时候,我弟弟四处张望看着排队的其他人。another后面只能用可数名词单数形式。根据句意此处应该是表达“其他人”。故将another改为other。
5.考查主谓一致。分析句子成分可知,本句的主语是the people,该词是复数名词,故谓语动词应该和它的数保持一致,因为是直接引用弟弟的话,时态为一般现在时。故将is改为are。
6.考查固定短语。根据短语explain to sb sth可知应在him前加to。故在him前加to。
7.考查定语从句。句意:我耐心地给他解释说他们是坏人,警察正在搜索他们。search for即搜索,搜查。分析此句可知是定语从句,先行词是bad people,them多余。根据句意可知此处意思是搜查而非找出。故删除them。
8.考查并列连词。根据句意可知,句中的两个动词“looked up at me”和“asked”是顺承关系,而非转折关系。故将but改为and。
9.考查状语从句的省略。分析句子结构可知此处是状语从句省略,完整的句子为:Then why didn’t they keep them when they were taking their pictures。在状语从句中如果主从句主语一致,且从句由be动词时,可以省略从句中的主语和be,句子剩余的其他部分不变。故将take改为taking。
10.考查副词。分析句子结构可知complete是修饰介词短语“without words”,修饰介词要用副词形式。故将complete改为completely。

参考范文
Dear George,
I hope you’re doing well. Receiving your letter is such a refreshment since I’m fully engaged in preparing for the exam.
As for my major, I will choose Medicine, which, I know, is a long-term commitment and a
decision that shouldn’t be taken lightly. But being able to cure people or even save people’s lives is so rewarding. Though doctors are faced with much stress, my passion about healthcare and helping people tells me that I cannot go wrong with studying and working in Medicine and Health. Besides, doctors are highly respected in China and in great demand too, especially highly qualified professionals.
Sincerely hope my dream will come true soon. Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua
