Some people have a very poor sense of direction.Unluckily，I am one of them.I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl，I never dared to ask strangers the way.And so I used to walk around in circles and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.
Now，I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions，but I often receive helpless or even wrong information.So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions.If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere，I would say，“Sorry，I am a stranger here.”
Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man.He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building.I gave him my usual reply.But just as I walked on only a few steps，I realized that he had asked the way to my office building.However，I had no time to turn back and look for him.I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn't want to keep him waiting.
When I just got to my office，the secretary(秘书) showed in the man who had asked me for directions.Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight!
24．The writer always refuses to give people directions because ________.
A．she's a stranger to the city.
B．she doesn't know the people.
C．she has no time to help others.
D．she's afraid of giving wrong directions.
25．A man stopped the writer on the way to ________.
A．sell her something. B．ask her the time.
C．make friends with her. D．ask for the direction.
26．The Friendship Building is the place where the writer ________.
A．lives. B．studies.
C．works. D．teaches.
27．The words “embarrassed” in the paragraph means “________” in Chinese.
A．尴尬的 B．困惑的

Extracting (提取)CO2 from the air is one of the best ways to address climate change without preventing billions of people from getting the energy they need. But the trick is what to do with it afterwards.
Common approaches include injecting (注射)it deep underground to get rid of it. But if you could use it to make useful stuff, then it would do double duty and make the products zero-carbon since they wouldn't put extra carbon into the atmosphere. For years, focus has been on making zero-carbon petrol or jet fuel from the extracted carbon using non-fossil fuels to generate the energy needed.
Today, XPRIZE revealed the two winners in this year's 20-million-dollar prize for a competition developed to create breakthrough carbon technologies that turn emissions (排放物；排放)into products with a high net value. The winners were CarbonCure of Canada and CarbonBuilt of California. Interestingly, they both demonstrated technologies focused on decarbonizing (脱碳)the concrete industry.
CarbonBuilt developed a technology that reduces the carbon footprint of concrete by more than 50% while reducing raw material costs. During the curing process, CO2 is directly injected into the concrete mixture where it is chemically transformed and permanently stored.
CarbonCure's technology enables the production of concrete with a reduced water and carbon footprint while increasing the material's reliability. The CO2 is transformed into a permanently embedded mineral which can then be combined with new concrete mixes. The technology is able to reduce the material costs and increase profitability for producers.
Concrete is a major contributor to global warming as producing it releases a huge amount of carbon dioxide. Yet it's the most widely used artificial material, second only to water. Renewable energy sources use much concrete per unit energy produced. If they are to increase enough to make a difference in time to help the planet, getting control of the CO2 in concrete production is essential.
28．What does the underlined part “double duty” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．Extracting CO2 and making useful products.
B．Cutting CO2 emission and saving energy.
C．Removing CO2 and creating value.
D．Storing carbon and reducing waste.
29．Which is NOT a shared benefit of the two winners' technologies?
A．They permanently store the CO2.
B．They make concrete more reliable.
C．They reduce the carbon footprint of concrete.
D．They lower the cost of concrete.
30．What is stressed in the last paragraph?
A．To manage concrete emissions.
B．To invest in clean energy sources.
C．To cut the use of concrete.
D．To find an alternative to concrete.
31．What is the text mainly about?
A．A competition on global crisis.
B．Innovative ways of decarbonization.
C．A revolution in the concrete industry.
D．The possibility of turning CO2 into treasure.
Every year more people recognize that it is wrong to kill wildlife for “sport”. Progress in this direction is slow because shooting is not a sport for watching, and only those few who take par realize the cruelty and destruction.
The number of gunners, however, grows rapidly. Children too young to develop proper judgments through independent thought are led a long way away by their gunning parents. They are subjected to advertisements of gun producers who describe shooting as good for their health and gun-carrying as a way of putting redder blood in the veins（血管）. They are persuaded by gunner magazines with stories honoring the chase and the kill. In school they view motion pictures which are supposedly meant to teach them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate（刺激）a desire to own a gun.
Wildlife is disappearing because of shooting and because of the loss of wildland habitat Habitatloss will continue with our increasing population, but can we slow the loss of wildlife caused by shooting? There doesn't seem to be any chance if the serious condition of our birds is not improved. Wildlife belongs to everyone and not to the gunners alone. Although most people do not shoot, they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it. The only answer, then, is to bring the truth about sport shooting to the great majority of people.
Now, it is time to realize that animals have the same right to life as we do and that there is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless and beautiful creatures. The gunners like to describe what they do as character-building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the agony of mortality can make nobody happy. If, as they would have you believe, gun-carrying and killing improve human character, then perhaps we should encourage war.
32．According to the text, most people do not seem to be against hunting because .
A．they have little knowledge of it.
B．it helps to build human character.
C．it is too costly to stop killing wildlife.
D．they want to keep wildlife under control.
33．The underlined word “agony” in the last paragraph probably means .
A．difficulty. B．tress. C．pain. D．sadness.
34．According to the text, the films children watch at school actually .
A．teach them how to deal with guns safely.
B．praise hunting as character building.
C．describe hunting as a physical exercise.
D．encourage them to have guns of their own.
35．By saying “perhaps we should encourage war”, the writer intends to tell us that .
A．Hunting to build human character makes no sense.
B．War in the best way to improve human character.
C．We are on the edge of war against gunners.
D．Protecting wildlife from gunners is extremely difficult.
四、七选五
Craftsmanship requires a great deal of time, patience and effort. 36． Traditionally craftsmen develop their skills through apprenticeship to those masters of the craft who came before them.Although we don't often work that way in this day and age. There are few things that we can do to emulate the process.
Practice everyday design something new, walk through a tutorial work on a personal project. Whatever it takes to getting you working with the tools of your trade each day, the more you do something, the better (and faster) you become at doing it.37．
Learn to accept criticism and react appropriately. People have a hard time taking criticism of their work. You put so much effort into a piece. it can be difficult to hear that what you have done is not good enough.38． criticism isn't personal, you and your critics have the same goal, a quality product.
39．.As I mentioned earlier, this is where all of the difference is made. A true artisan is careful about the details. Take the time to add polish and style to the small things. That can easily go overlooked. Attentiveness to these details raises the quality of our work.
Design for the future. Items that exhibit the quality of craftsmanship are timeless, They are built well,and built to last. 40． There are always new features in the software we use .People develop new tools that give us more possibilities. But despite the ever-changing face of this industry, it is possible to do work that has longevity.
A．Pay attention to the details.
B．Participate in quality discussion.
C．Trends and costumes change rapidly.
D．Building quality reputations is the key to building craftsmanship.
E.However, nothing will help you improve so much as a critic.
F.Practice is the most important part of developing the quality of craftsmanship.
G.So becoming a real artisan requires your continuous development of your craft.

67．阅读下面材料, 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。
For nearly twenty years, my life was about two things: smoking cigarettes—and trying to quit smoking cigarettes.
When I married Cassie ten years ago, I threw my pack of cigarettes and swore I was quitting.
When we bought our first house eight years ago, I celebrated it by pulverizing (粉碎) my pack of cigarettes with my shoe heel.
When my son, Cole, was born five years ago, I threw my cigarettes into a garbage can.
I even began working out—running days a week, rain or shine. I lost forty pounds but I never was able to outrun those cigarettes.
You know cigarettes are deadly—but every cell in your body screams out for that nicotine. Then, one day the willpower I had lacked arrived from most unexpected place: an unclouded corner of my son’s mind.
As Cassie was driving Cole home from kindergarten, they passed a cemetery (墓地), which made the boy ask: “Mom, what’s under tombstones?”
Realizing there was no delicate answer, she frankly said, “Dead people.”
“Is that where Dad’s going to be because he smokes?” Cole asked. “I hope not,” Cassie replied. “Dad shouldn't smoke,” Cole said, his voice rising in anger. He kicked the back of the front seat. “Dad’s stupid for smoking. When I'm twenty, he’ll be dead.”
Cassie was speechless, shocked by Cole’s innocence. Then, just as quickly as he had exploded, Cole calmed down. “I hope he comes back as a ghost and talks to me,” he said peacefully. “Like Obi-Wan Kenobi did to Luke Skywalker in Star Wars.”
注意：1. 续写词数应为 150 左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When I arrived home from work that evening, Cassie recounted the story to me.

Later that evening, I found Cole and said, “Cole, I’m going to quit smoking, but I need your help.”

这是一篇记叙文。这篇短文讲述的是因为作者自己方向感很差，所以当有人向他问路时，他总是拒绝给别人指路。有一次又有一个人向作者问路，作者像往常一样拒绝了他。但是他随后就意识到那个地方正是他工作的地方，可已经来不及了。当作者在办公室里见到那个陌生人时，作者感到非常的尴尬。
【详解】
1.细节理解题。根据短文第一句“Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily, I am one of them.”（有些人的方向感很差，不幸的是，我就是其中之一。）可知，作者的方向感很差，所以他不敢给别人指示方向。选项D与文意一致，故选D。
2.细节理解题。根据短文第四段第一句中“Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building.”（有一次我在上班的路上被一个男人拦住了。他问我能不能告诉他去友谊大厦的路。）可知，一次在回家的路上，一个陌生人向作者询问怎样去友谊大厦，即在向他问路，故选D。
3.细节理解题。根据短文第四段第二句中“I gave him my usual reply．But just as I walked on only a few steps. I realized that he had asked the way to my office building.”（我给了他我一贯的回答。但我刚走了几步。我意识到他在问我办公楼的路。）可知，当一个陌生人向作者问路的时候，作者像往常一样拒绝回答，但是后来他突然想起来，友谊大厦就是作者的办公楼，就是他工作的地方。故选C。
4.词句猜测题。根据倒数第三段中“So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions.If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere, I would say, “Sorry, I am a stranger here.””（所以我尽量避免给别人错误的指引，如果有人问我去哪里的路，我会说： “对不起，我是个陌生人。”）倒数第二段中“He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building.I gave him my usual reply.”（他问我能不能告诉他去友谊大楼的路，我像往常拒绝了。）最后一段中“When I just got to my office，the secretary(秘书) showed in the man who had asked me for directions.”（我刚到办公室，秘书就把向我问路的人带进来了。）可以推知，当作者在办公室看到问自己路的男人时，想到自己给的回答方式，作者是感到尴尬的。所以划线词意为“尴尬的”，故选A。

指代猜测题。根据第二段关键句“Common approaches include injecting it deep underground to get rid of it. But if you could use it to make useful stuff, then it would do double duty and make the products zero-carbon since they wouldn't put extra carbon into the atmosphere. ”（常见的方法包括将其注入地下深处以摆脱它。但是如果你可以用它来制造有用的东西，那么它就会起到双重作用，使产品零碳，因为它们不会向大气中排放额外的碳。）可知，此处的“double duty”指代“get rid of it”及“make useful stuff”，即，去除二氧化碳并创造价值。故选C项。
29．
细节理解题。对比第四、五段并根据文章第五段关键句“CarbonCure's technology enables the production of concrete with a reduced water and carbon footprint while increasing the material's reliability. ”（CarbonCure的技术使混凝土的生产能够减少水和碳足迹，同时提高材料的可靠性。）可知，使混凝土更可靠是CarbonCure所采用的技术带来的益处。故选B项。
30．
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段关键句“Concrete is a major contributor to global warming as producing it releases a huge amount of carbon dioxide. ”（混凝土是全球变暖的主要原因，因为它会释放大量的二氧化碳。）及最后一句“If they are to increase enough to make a difference in time to help the planet, getting control of the CO2 in concrete production is essential.”（如果它们要增加到足以在时间上帮助地球，控制混凝土生产中的二氧化碳是至关重要的。）可知，最后一段强调了管理混凝土的排放。故选A项。
31．
主旨大意题。根据第三段关键句“Today, XPRIZE revealed the two winners in this year's 20-million-dollar prize for a competition developed to create breakthrough carbon technologies that turn emissions into products with a high net value. The winners were CarbonCure of Canada and CarbonBuilt of California. ”（今天，XPRIZE公布了今年2000万美元奖金的两名获奖者，该竞赛旨在创造突破性的碳技术，将排放转化为具有高净值的产品。获奖者是加拿大的CarbonCure公司和加州的CarbonBuilt公司。）及全文内容可知，本文介绍了XPRIZE基金会向来自北美的两个团队发放了现金奖励，这两个团队都通过在水泥产业中运用新颖的脱碳方法，消除并有效利用二氧化碳，生产出更环保、更节约成本、且性能与传统材料相当甚至更好的混凝土。故选B项。

【分析】
这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了，虽然人们认为打猎是错误的，但是持枪的人却在迅速增加；猎杀动物使得野生动物变得越来越少了，事实上动物和我们一样拥有在这个地球居住的权利。
32．
细节理解题。由第三段中的“Although most people do not shoot, they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it.”（虽然大多数人不开枪，但他们似乎原谅为体育而射击，因为他们对这件事知之甚少或一无所知。），可知大多数人原谅为体育而开枪（即把打猎看成运动），所以似乎并不反对狩猎，是因为他们对这件事几乎一无所知。故选A项。
33．
词义猜测题。由最后一段中的“The gunners like to describe what they do as character-building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the agony of mortality can make nobody happy.”（枪手们喜欢描述他们的性格塑造，但我们知道，伤害动物，看着它经历死亡的agony，不会让任何人感到高兴。），结合“to wound an animal”和“watch it go through the agony of mortality”可知，伤害动物，动物要死亡，被伤害的将死的动物肯定很痛苦，agony在此处意为“pain（痛苦）”。故选C项。
34．
细节理解题。由第二段中的“In school they view motion pictures which are supposedly meant to teach them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate（刺激）a desire to own a gun.”（在学校里，他们看的是电影，这些电影据说是为了教他们如何安全地处理武器，但实际上是为了激发他们拥有自己枪支的欲望。），可知孩子们在学校看的电影其实是激发他们拥有自己枪支的欲望，即鼓励他们拥有自己的枪。故选D项。
35．
句意猜测题。由最后一段“Now, it is time to realize that animals have the same right to life as we do and that there is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless and beautiful creatures. The gunners like to describe what they do as character-building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the agony of mortality can make nobody happy. If, as they would have you believe, gun-carrying and killing improve human character, then perhaps we should encourage war.”（现在，是时候意识到动物和我们一样有生命权，拿枪射击无害美丽的生物，没有什么公平或正确的。枪手们喜欢描述他们的性格塑造，但我们知道，伤害动物，看着它经历死亡的痛苦，不会让任何人感到高兴。如果，正如你所相信的那样，携带枪支和杀人可以提高人类的性格，那么也许我们应该鼓励战争。），可知作者认为打猎是不公平或正确的，枪手们认为打猎能塑造人们的性格，但本质上看着动物痛苦地死去，没人会开心，所以作者并不认为打猎能塑造人们的性格，作者说的“也许我们应该鼓励战争”也是反话，就像没人会鼓励战争一样，作者认为打猎对性格塑造也是毫无意义的。故选A项。

这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了做哪些事情可以帮助工匠提高技能。
36．
根据上文“Craftsmanship requires a great deal of time, patience and effort.”可知， 制作工艺需要大量的时间、耐心和努力。说明工匠要不断的提高自己的技能。G选项“所以成为一个真正的工匠需要你不断的提高你的手艺”切题，与上文为因果关系，a great deal of time, patience and effort.呼应continuous development of your craft.选项也引出下文传统上提高技能的方式。故选G项。
37．
根据上文“Whatever it takes to getting you working with the tools of your trade each day, the more you do something, the better (and faster) you become at doing it.”可知，无论你每天如何使用这些工具，你做的越多，你就会做得越好。F选项“实践是提高工艺质量的最重要部分”切题。do something呼应practice，总结上文说明实践的重要作用。故选F项。
38．
上文“People have a hard time taking criticism of their work. You put so much effort into a piece. it can be difficult to hear that what you have done is not good enough”讲述人们很难接受对他们工作的批评。你花了那么多精力在一件事上。很不想听到你所做的不好够的评论。下文“criticism isn't personal, you and your critics have the same goal, a quality product.”讲述批评不是针对你个人的，你和你的批评者有相同的目标，一个高质量的产品。所以选项与上文为转折关系且承接下文来说明批评者对于工匠的帮助。故E选项“然而，没有什么比批评家更能帮你进步了”切题。critic是关键词。故选E项。
39．
根据下文“A true artisan is careful about the details. Take the time to add polish and style to the small things. That can easily go overlooked. Attentiveness to these details raises the quality of our work.”可知，一个真正的工匠对细节很注意。花点时间给这些小东西润色一下并且增加风格。那很容易被忽视。对这些细节的关注提高了我们工作的质量。所以本段主要在说注重细节。故A选项“注重细节”为本段的标题。故选A项。
40．
上文“Items that exhibit the quality of craftsmanship are timeless, They are built well, and built to last.”讲述展示出工艺质量的物品是永恒的，它们建造得很好，建造得持久。下文“There are always new features in the software we use .” 讲述我们使用的软件总是有新的功能。所以选项在说与展示工艺质量的物品相比，很多东西都是在快速变化的。且承接下文。故C选项“潮流和服装变化迅速”正是体现了变化迅速的两个方面。故选C项。

67．Possible Version:
When I arrived home from work that evening, Cassie recounted the story to me. She stared right into my eyes and said：" Cole's come to terms with the fact that you won't be around. And if he can only have you as a ghost, that's what he'll take. "The words were a simple truth. Smoking could only lead to one conclusion, and when they placed me under that tombstone, life would have to go on without me. If I couldn't even fool my own five-year-old kid, why was I continuing to try to fool myself?
Later that evening, I found Cole and said: “Cole, I’m going to quit smoking, but I you’re your help.” The seconds ticked by as he hatched his plan. Finally, he spoke. "Okay. Here’s what we'll do: every morning and every night, I'll tell you not to smoke.”Every time I had an urge to smoke, I fought it off with thoughts of tombstones and Obi-Wan Kenobi and a little boy trying desperately to help his old man out of a jam. So here I am, checking off the days that I've been cigarette-free. I know I have promise to keep and people to love.

Some people have a very poor sense of direction.Unluckily，I am one of them.I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl，I never dared to ask strangers the way.And so I used to walk around in circles and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.
Now，I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions，but I often receive helpless or even wrong information.So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions.If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere，I would say，“Sorry，I am a stranger here.”
Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man.He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building.I gave him my usual reply.But just as I walked on only a few steps，I realized that he had asked the way to my office building.However，I had no time to turn back and look for him.I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn't want to keep him waiting.
When I just got to my office，the secretary(秘书) showed in the man who had asked me for directions.Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight!
24．The writer always refuses to give people directions because ________.
A．she's a stranger to the city.
B．she doesn't know the people.
C．she has no time to help others.
D．she's afraid of giving wrong directions.
25．A man stopped the writer on the way to ________.
A．sell her something. B．ask her the time.
C．make friends with her. D．ask for the direction.
26．The Friendship Building is the place where the writer ________.
A．lives. B．studies.
C．works. D．teaches.
27．The words “embarrassed” in the paragraph means “________” in Chinese.
A．尴尬的 B．困惑的
C．激动的 D．拮据的
Extracting (提取)CO2 from the air is one of the best ways to address climate change without preventing billions of people from getting the energy they need. But the trick is what to do with it afterwards.
Common approaches include injecting (注射)it deep underground to get rid of it. But if you could use it to make useful stuff, then it would do double duty and make the products zero-carbon since they wouldn't put extra carbon into the atmosphere. For years, focus has been on making zero-carbon petrol or jet fuel from the extracted carbon using non-fossil fuels to generate the energy needed.
Today, XPRIZE revealed the two winners in this year's 20-million-dollar prize for a competition developed to create breakthrough carbon technologies that turn emissions (排放物；排放)into products with a high net value. The winners were CarbonCure of Canada and CarbonBuilt of California. Interestingly, they both demonstrated technologies focused on decarbonizing (脱碳)the concrete industry.
CarbonBuilt developed a technology that reduces the carbon footprint of concrete by more than 50% while reducing raw material costs. During the curing process, CO2 is directly injected into the concrete mixture where it is chemically transformed and permanently stored.
CarbonCure's technology enables the production of concrete with a reduced water and carbon footprint while increasing the material's reliability. The CO2 is transformed into a permanently embedded mineral which can then be combined with new concrete mixes. The technology is able to reduce the material costs and increase profitability for producers.
Concrete is a major contributor to global warming as producing it releases a huge amount of carbon dioxide. Yet it's the most widely used artificial material, second only to water. Renewable energy sources use much concrete per unit energy produced. If they are to increase enough to make a difference in time to help the planet, getting control of the CO2 in concrete production is essential.
28．What does the underlined part “double duty” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．Extracting CO2 and making useful products.
B．Cutting CO2 emission and saving energy.
C．Removing CO2 and creating value.
D．Storing carbon and reducing waste.
29．Which is NOT a shared benefit of the two winners' technologies?
A．They permanently store the CO2.
B．They make concrete more reliable.
C．They reduce the carbon footprint of concrete.
D．They lower the cost of concrete.
30．What is stressed in the last paragraph?
A．To manage concrete emissions.
B．To invest in clean energy sources.
C．To cut the use of concrete.
D．To find an alternative to concrete.
31．What is the text mainly about?
A．A competition on global crisis.
B．Innovative ways of decarbonization.
C．A revolution in the concrete industry.
D．The possibility of turning CO2 into treasure.
Every year more people recognize that it is wrong to kill wildlife for “sport”. Progress in this direction is slow because shooting is not a sport for watching, and only those few who take par realize the cruelty and destruction.
The number of gunners, however, grows rapidly. Children too young to develop proper judgments through independent thought are led a long way away by their gunning parents. They are subjected to advertisements of gun producers who describe shooting as good for their health and gun-carrying as a way of putting redder blood in the veins（血管）. They are persuaded by gunner magazines with stories honoring the chase and the kill. In school they view motion pictures which are supposedly meant to teach them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate（刺激）a desire to own a gun.
Wildlife is disappearing because of shooting and because of the loss of wildland habitat Habitatloss will continue with our increasing population, but can we slow the loss of wildlife caused by shooting? There doesn't seem to be any chance if the serious condition of our birds is not improved. Wildlife belongs to everyone and not to the gunners alone. Although most people do not shoot, they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it. The only answer, then, is to bring the truth about sport shooting to the great majority of people.
Now, it is time to realize that animals have the same right to life as we do and that there is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless and beautiful creatures. The gunners like to describe what they do as character-building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the agony of mortality can make nobody happy. If, as they would have you believe, gun-carrying and killing improve human character, then perhaps we should encourage war.
32．According to the text, most people do not seem to be against hunting because .
A．they have little knowledge of it.
B．it helps to build human character.
C．it is too costly to stop killing wildlife.
D．they want to keep wildlife under control.

34．According to the text, the films children watch at school actually .
A．teach them how to deal with guns safely.

A．Hunting to build human character makes no sense.
B．War in the best way to improve human character.
C．We are on the edge of war against gunners.
D．Protecting wildlife from gunners is extremely difficult.

Craftsmanship requires a great deal of time, patience and effort. 36． Traditionally craftsmen develop their skills through apprenticeship to those masters of the craft who came before them.Although we don't often work that way in this day and age. There are few things that we can do to emulate the process.
Practice everyday design something new, walk through a tutorial work on a personal project. Whatever it takes to getting you working with the tools of your trade each day, the more you do something, the better (and faster) you become at doing it.37．
Learn to accept criticism and react appropriately. People have a hard time taking criticism of their work. You put so much effort into a piece. it can be difficult to hear that what you have done is not good enough.38． criticism isn't personal, you and your critics have the same goal, a quality product.
39．.As I mentioned earlier, this is where all of the difference is made. A true artisan is careful about the details. Take the time to add polish and style to the small things. That can easily go overlooked. Attentiveness to these details raises the quality of our work.
Design for the future. Items that exhibit the quality of craftsmanship are timeless, They are built well,and built to last. 40． There are always new features in the software we use .People develop new tools that give us more possibilities. But despite the ever-changing face of this industry, it is possible to do work that has longevity.

67．阅读下面材料, 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。
For nearly twenty years, my life was about two things: smoking cigarettes—and trying to quit smoking cigarettes.
When I married Cassie ten years ago, I threw my pack of cigarettes and swore I was quitting.
When we bought our first house eight years ago, I celebrated it by pulverizing (粉碎) my pack of cigarettes with my shoe heel.
When my son, Cole, was born five years ago, I threw my cigarettes into a garbage can.
I even began working out—running days a week, rain or shine. I lost forty pounds but I never was able to outrun those cigarettes.
You know cigarettes are deadly—but every cell in your body screams out for that nicotine. Then, one day the willpower I had lacked arrived from most unexpected place: an unclouded corner of my son’s mind.
As Cassie was driving Cole home from kindergarten, they passed a cemetery (墓地), which made the boy ask: “Mom, what’s under tombstones?”
Realizing there was no delicate answer, she frankly said, “Dead people.”
“Is that where Dad’s going to be because he smokes?” Cole asked. “I hope not,” Cassie replied. “Dad shouldn't smoke,” Cole said, his voice rising in anger. He kicked the back of the front seat. “Dad’s stupid for smoking. When I'm twenty, he’ll be dead.”
Cassie was speechless, shocked by Cole’s innocence. Then, just as quickly as he had exploded, Cole calmed down. “I hope he comes back as a ghost and talks to me,” he said peacefully. “Like Obi-Wan Kenobi did to Luke Skywalker in Star Wars.”
注意：1. 续写词数应为 150 左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When I arrived home from work that evening, Cassie recounted the story to me.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Later that evening, I found Cole and said, “Cole, I’m going to quit smoking, but I need your help.”

这是一篇记叙文。这篇短文讲述的是因为作者自己方向感很差，所以当有人向他问路时，他总是拒绝给别人指路。有一次又有一个人向作者问路，作者像往常一样拒绝了他。但是他随后就意识到那个地方正是他工作的地方，可已经来不及了。当作者在办公室里见到那个陌生人时，作者感到非常的尴尬。
【详解】
1.细节理解题。根据短文第一句“Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily, I am one of them.”（有些人的方向感很差，不幸的是，我就是其中之一。）可知，作者的方向感很差，所以他不敢给别人指示方向。选项D与文意一致，故选D。

4.词句猜测题。根据倒数第三段中“So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions.If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere, I would say, “Sorry, I am a stranger here.””（所以我尽量避免给别人错误的指引，如果有人问我去哪里的路，我会说： “对不起，我是个陌生人。”）倒数第二段中“He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building.I gave him my usual reply.”（他问我能不能告诉他去友谊大楼的路，我像往常拒绝了。）最后一段中“When I just got to my office，the secretary(秘书) showed in the man who had asked me for directions.”（我刚到办公室，秘书就把向我问路的人带进来了。）可以推知，当作者在办公室看到问自己路的男人时，想到自己给的回答方式，作者是感到尴尬的。所以划线词意为“尴尬的”，故选A。

本文为一篇说明文。从空气中提取二氧化碳是应对气候变化的最好方法之一。加拿大的CarbonCure公司和加州的CarbonBuilt公司都通过在水泥产业中运用新颖的脱碳方法，消除并有效利用二氧化碳，生产出更环保、更节约成本、且性能与传统材料相当甚至更好的混凝土。
28．
指代猜测题。根据第二段关键句“Common approaches include injecting it deep underground to get rid of it. But if you could use it to make useful stuff, then it would do double duty and make the products zero-carbon since they wouldn't put extra carbon into the atmosphere. ”（常见的方法包括将其注入地下深处以摆脱它。但是如果你可以用它来制造有用的东西，那么它就会起到双重作用，使产品零碳，因为它们不会向大气中排放额外的碳。）可知，此处的“double duty”指代“get rid of it”及“make useful stuff”，即，去除二氧化碳并创造价值。故选C项。
29．
细节理解题。对比第四、五段并根据文章第五段关键句“CarbonCure's technology enables the production of concrete with a reduced water and carbon footprint while increasing the material's reliability. ”（CarbonCure的技术使混凝土的生产能够减少水和碳足迹，同时提高材料的可靠性。）可知，使混凝土更可靠是CarbonCure所采用的技术带来的益处。故选B项。
30．
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段关键句“Concrete is a major contributor to global warming as producing it releases a huge amount of carbon dioxide. ”（混凝土是全球变暖的主要原因，因为它会释放大量的二氧化碳。）及最后一句“If they are to increase enough to make a difference in time to help the planet, getting control of the CO2 in concrete production is essential.”（如果它们要增加到足以在时间上帮助地球，控制混凝土生产中的二氧化碳是至关重要的。）可知，最后一段强调了管理混凝土的排放。故选A项。
31．
主旨大意题。根据第三段关键句“Today, XPRIZE revealed the two winners in this year's 20-million-dollar prize for a competition developed to create breakthrough carbon technologies that turn emissions into products with a high net value.

这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了，虽然人们认为打猎是错误的，但是持枪的人却在迅速增加；猎杀动物使得野生动物变得越来越少了，事实上动物和我们一样拥有在这个地球居住的权利。
32．
细节理解题。由第三段中的“Although most people do not shoot, they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it.”（虽然大多数人不开枪，但他们似乎原谅为体育而射击，因为他们对这件事知之甚少或一无所知。），可知大多数人原谅为体育而开枪（即把打猎看成运动），所以似乎并不反对狩猎，是因为他们对这件事几乎一无所知。故选A项。
33．
词义猜测题。由最后一段中的“The gunners like to describe what they do as character-building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the agony of mortality can make nobody happy.”（枪手们喜欢描述他们的性格塑造，但我们知道，伤害动物，看着它经历死亡的agony，不会让任何人感到高兴。），结合“to wound an animal”和“watch it go through the agony of mortality”可知，伤害动物，动物要死亡，被伤害的将死的动物肯定很痛苦，agony在此处意为“pain（痛苦）”。故选C项。
34．
细节理解题。由第二段中的“In school they view motion pictures which are supposedly meant to teach them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate（刺激）a desire to own a gun.”（在学校里，他们看的是电影，这些电影据说是为了教他们如何安全地处理武器，但实际上是为了激发他们拥有自己枪支的欲望。），可知孩子们在学校看的电影其实是激发他们拥有自己枪支的欲望，即鼓励他们拥有自己的枪。故选D项。
35．
句意猜测题。由最后一段“Now, it is time to realize that animals have the same right to life as we do and that there is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless and beautiful creatures. The gunners like to describe what they do as character-building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the agony of mortality can make nobody happy. If, as they would have you believe, gun-carrying and killing improve human character, then perhaps we should encourage war.”（现在，是时候意识到动物和我们一样有生命权，拿枪射击无害美丽的生物，没有什么公平或正确的。枪手们喜欢描述他们的性格塑造，但我们知道，伤害动物，看着它经历死亡的痛苦，不会让任何人感到高兴。如果，正如你所相信的那样，携带枪支和杀人可以提高人类的性格，那么也许我们应该鼓励战争。），可知作者认为打猎是不公平或正确的，枪手们认为打猎能塑造人们的性格，但本质上看着动物痛苦地死去，没人会开心，所以作者并不认为打猎能塑造人们的性格，作者说的“也许我们应该鼓励战争”也是反话，就像没人会鼓励战争一样，作者认为打猎对性格塑造也是毫无意义的。故选A项。

这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了做哪些事情可以帮助工匠提高技能。

39．
根据下文“A true artisan is careful about the details. Take the time to add polish and style to the small things. That can easily go overlooked. Attentiveness to these details raises the quality of our work.”可知，一个真正的工匠对细节很注意。花点时间给这些小东西润色一下并且增加风格。那很容易被忽视。对这些细节的关注提高了我们工作的质量。所以本段主要在说注重细节。故A选项“注重细节”为本段的标题。故选A项。
40．
上文“Items that exhibit the quality of craftsmanship are timeless, They are built well, and built to last.”讲述展示出工艺质量的物品是永恒的，它们建造得很好，建造得持久。下文“There are always new features in the software we use .” 讲述我们使用的软件总是有新的功能。所以选项在说与展示工艺质量的物品相比，很多东西都是在快速变化的。且承接下文。故C选项“潮流和服装变化迅速”正是体现了变化迅速的两个方面。故选C项。

【分析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了北京玻璃器皿的历史。它的历史可以追溯到明朝早期。
56．
考查it用法。句意：据说，当人们熔炼青铜时，他们发现一些废料可以形成美丽的颜色。固定句型：It is said that…“据说”，其中it是形式主语，that从句是真正的主语。故填It。
57．
考查一般过去时。句意：据说，当人们熔炼青铜时，他们发现一些废料可以形成美丽的颜色。that引导的主语从句中，含when引导的时间状语从句，从句是一般过时，则从句也用一般过去时。故填discovered。
58．
考查定语从句。句意：因此，他们开始使用这些材料制作手工艺品，这就是最早的玻璃器皿。此处handicrafts是先行词，指物，在后面的非限制性定语从句中作主语，定语从句由关系代词which引导，that不能引导非限制性定语从句。故填which。
59．
考查名词。句意：明清时期，玻璃工艺品主要用于皇室成员的装饰。介词of后面用名词、代词宾格或动名词作宾语，所给词royal是形容词，其名词是royalty。故填royalty。
60．
考查介词。句意：此外，在清朝，它们还被制成珠子，用于官员的帽子。固定搭配：be made into“被制成……”。故填into。
61．
考查副词。句意：中华人民共和国成立后，中央政府对北京玻璃器皿进行了大量投资。句中invested是动词过去式，由副词修饰，所给词enormous是形容词，其副词是enormously。故填enormously。
62．
考查一般过时的被动语态。句意：老玻璃器皿工人聚集在一起，成立了北京玻璃器皿厂，生产装饰玻璃器皿工艺品。句子主语workers是复数形式，和谓语动词bring之间是被动关系，且指过去的事请，所以句子用一般过去时的被动语态。故填were brought。
63．
考查名词复数。句意：这些手工艺品成为当时的主要出口产品。根据Those可知名词用复数形式。故填products。
64．
考查现在分词作后置定语。句意：然而，由于种种原因，北京玻璃器皿制作工艺逐渐衰落。Beijing glassware和make之间是主动关系，用现在分词作后置定语。故填making。
65．
考查定冠词。句意：经过600多年的发展，北京玻璃器皿的工艺已经传承到了第七代。此处特指“北京玻璃器皿的工艺品”，所以用定冠词the表示特指。故填the。

67．Possible Version:
When I arrived home from work that evening, Cassie recounted the story to me. She stared right into my eyes and said：" Cole's come to terms with the fact that you won't be around. And if he can only have you as a ghost, that's what he'll take. "The words were a simple truth. Smoking could only lead to one conclusion, and when they placed me under that tombstone, life would have to go on without me. If I couldn't even fool my own five-year-old kid, why was I continuing to try to fool myself?
Later that evening, I found Cole and said: “Cole, I’m going to quit smoking, but I you’re your help.” The seconds ticked by as he hatched his plan. Finally, he spoke. "Okay. Here’s what we'll do: every morning and every night, I'll tell you not to smoke.”Every time I had an urge to smoke, I fought it off with thoughts of tombstones and Obi-Wan Kenobi and a little boy trying desperately to help his old man out of a jam. So here I am, checking off the days that I've been cigarette-free. I know I have promise to keep and people to love.
