MyFirstMarathon
A month before my first marathon,one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks,leaving me only two weeks to train.Yet,I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in the school.In my first P.E.class,the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball.I didn’t do either well.He later informed me that I was “not athletic”.
The idea that I was “not athletic” stuck with me for years.When I started running in my 30s,I realised running was a battle against myself,not about competition or whether or not I was athletic.It was all about the battle against my own body and mind.A test of wills!
The night before my marathon,I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line.I woke up sweating and nervous,but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line,my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied.So I stopped to readjust.Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3,I passed a sign:“GO FOR IT,RUNNERS!”
By mile 17,I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly.Despite the pain,I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
By mile 21,I was starving!
As I approached mile 23,I could see my wife waving a sign.She is my biggest fan.She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 am or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish.But I finished!And I got a medal.In fact,I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself,move forward,free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签),I can now call myself a “marathon winner”.

主题语境:人与自然 语篇类型:议论文
(2020山东泰安高二上学期期末)
There’s a lot we know about eggs:they are great for breakfast and you can cook them in different ways.One topic of debate,however,is why brown chicken eggs usually cost more than white ones.According to Sharman Hickman,the director of Community Outreach and Education for Hickman’s Family Farms,genetics (基因学) not nutrition determines the eggshell colour and thus the egg’s price.
The chicken breed (品种) and their genetics decide whether or not hens have pigment (色素) genes,which coat the egg and result in a coloured shell during the egg-laying process.Although all eggs start out white in colour,shell colour can range from white to brown and even blue in some rare breeds,Hickman adds.Breeds such as the Leghorn chicken lays white eggs,while the Orpington lays brown eggs and the Ameraucana produces blue eggs.
Hickman notes that the Leghorn breed is the most efficient egg-laying hen,making it a popular choice for farmers.Hens that produce coloured eggshells,however,tend to be larger and require more feed and energy to create that painted layer.Since those breeds cost more to feed,their eggs are more expensive.
Although eggs sometimes look different and are priced differently,it’s impossible to know their nutritional make-up from the shell colour alone,according to Malina Linkas Malkani,media spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.“Choosing between brown and white eggs is a matter of personal preference,” she says.“But it’s important for people to know that the colour of the eggshell has nothing to do with the egg’s nutrient content or shell thickness.”
What does affect the nutrient content is the specific diet the hen is on,according to Malkani.For example,hens fed with a diet with omega-3s and vitamin D produce eggs that are higher in those specific nutrients.No matter what your preference is,don’t judge an egg by its shell colour.
【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了母鸡的品种使蛋壳的颜色不同。影响鸡蛋营养成分的是母鸡的特定饮食,而不是蛋壳的颜色。
28.Which of the following is one of the arguments about eggs?
A.Which eggs are difficult to break.
B.How eggs can be cooked healthily.
C.Why coloured eggs are more expensive.
D.What the best time to eat eggs should be.
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据第一段中“Onetopicofdebate,however,iswhybrownchickeneggsusuallycostmorethanwhiteones.”可知,“为什么有颜色的鸡蛋更贵”是关于鸡蛋的争论之一。故选C项。
29.What makes the eggshell colour different?
A.The hen’s breed.
B.The size of the hen.
C.The colour of the eggs inside.
D.The length of the laying process.
答案A
解析细节理解题。根据第二段中“Thechickenbreedandtheirgeneticsdecidewhetherornothenshavepigmentgenes,whichcoattheeggandresultinacolouredshellduringtheegg-layingprocess.”可知,母鸡的品种使蛋壳的颜色不同。故选A项。
30.Why do farmers love the Leghorn breed more?
A.They lay brown eggs.
B.Their eggs are larger.
C.Their eggs sell better.
D.They are productive.
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据第三段中“HickmannotesthattheLeghornbreedisthemostefficientegg-layinghen,makingitapopularchoiceforfarmers.”可知,农民更喜欢来亨鸡是因为它们高产。故选D项。
31.What can we learn from Malkani’s words in the last paragraph?
A.It takes efforts to test eggs’ nutrition.
B.It’s meaningless to study an egg’s colour.
C.Personal preference matters a lot in choice-making.
D.An egg’s nutrition is closely related to the hen’s feed.
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Whatdoesaffectthenutrientcontentisthespecificdietthehenison,accordingtoMalkani.Forexample,hensfedwithadietwithomega-3sandvitaminDproduceeggsthatarehigherinthosespecificnutrients.”可知,鸡蛋的营养与母鸡的饲料密切相关。故选D项。

(2020湖南浏阳高二上学期期末)
Smoking in your own home in Thailand may now be considered a crime,if the smoke is considered harmful to other people in the house.
The new law,Family Protection and Development Promotion Act,aiming at controlling smoking at home which might be hazardous for others’ health living under the same roof,was initiated by the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security and was announced in the Royal Gazette on May 22,2019.It came into force on August 20.
According to the centre for research and knowledge management for tobacco control,at the Faculty of Medical Science of Mahidol University,there are about 4.9 million households where one or more family members smoke.An average of 10.3 million people have unwittingly(不知不觉地) become passive smokers because they’ve been breathing smoke at home.Scientific studies show that passive smokers are at greater risk of being affected by cancer.Of 75 child patients from houses where smoking is practiced,76% of them were found to have nicotine traces in their urine(尿液),with 43% of them having nicotine content exceeding(超过) permissible levels.
Smoking at home also “may lead to physical or emotional violence” because of aggressiveness when there is a lack of smoking,and might as well ruin relationships between smokers and non-smoker family members.
According to the new law,anyone who thinks they are affected by domestic smoking can report to government departments concerned so that officials will be sent to investigate and take legal action against the smokers.Once convicted(证明有罪的),the court may order a person to receive treatment to quit smoking in an attempt to protect the person’s family.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。作者通过相关研究数据表明,在家中吸烟会危及家人的身体健康,甚至还可能破坏吸烟者和不吸烟的家庭成员之间的关系。根据新的法律,在泰国,在自己家里吸烟现在可能被视为犯罪。
32.What does the underlined word “hazardous” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Risky. B.Beneficial.
C.Influential. D.Dangerous.
答案D
解析词义猜测题。根据第二段的“Thenewlaw,...aimingatcontrollingsmokingathomewhichmightbehazardousforothers’healthlivingunderthesameroof,wasinitiatedbytheMinistryofSocialDevelopmentandHumanSecurity”和常识可知,吸烟有害人们身体健康。hazardous意为“危险的”,相当于dangerous,故选D项。
33.How does the author organise Paragraph 3?
A.By listing figures.
B.By giving examples.
C.By comparing the differences.
D.By explaining the reasons.
答案A
解析推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知,作者列出了Mahidol大学医学院的烟草控制研究和知识管理中心的相关数据,说明了490万家庭中有一个或多个家庭成员吸烟,平均有1030万人不知不觉地成为被动吸烟者。并通过数据说明被动吸烟者患癌症的风险更大,由此可推知,作者通过列举数字的方法组织第三段内容。故选A项。
34.We can learn from the passage that .
A.smoking anywhere in Thailand is considered a crime
B.passive smokers are more likely to have lung cancer
C.76% of the children in Thailand have nicotine traces in their urine
D.smoking at home may hurt other family members both physically and emotionally
答案D
解析推理判断题。从倒数第二段的“Smokingathomealso‘mayleadtophysicaloremotionalviolence’...mightaswellruinrelationshipsbetweensmokersandnon-smokerfamilymembers.”可知,在家里吸烟可能会伤害到其他家庭成员的身体和情感。故选D项。
35.According to the new law, .
A.anybody must report to the officials once they are affected
B.officials will take legal action against all the people concerned
C.smoking in one’s own home in Thailand may now be considered a crime
D.the court may order a smoker to stop smoking to protect all non-smokers
答案C
解析推理判断题。根据第一段的内容(在泰国,如果你在自己家里吸烟被认为对家里其他人有害,那么在家里吸烟就可能被视为犯罪。)可知,根据新的法律,在泰国,在自己家里吸烟现在可能被视为犯罪。故选C项。

Tourism can be both good and bad.Yes,it brings in money for the local economy and creates lots of jobs for locals,but it may also bring some problems.
36 Tourists have used paint,rocks,or even keys to write on the Luxor Temple in Egypt,the Colosseum in Rome,Stonehenge in the UK,memorial stones at the bottom of Qomolangma,and many,many other places.Thousands of tourists sites are being destroyed by tourists who “love them to death”. 37 If you want to leave a mark on the world,do it by changing someone’s life with kindness and love.Pass kindness along to future generations,not destruction.
Another big problem in some places has been tourists disturbing the local people and life. 38 For example,Chiang Mai University in Thailand and Yonsei University in South Korea have great numbers of tourists visiting their campuses and walking through their libraries and other public areas,taking pictures of students and disturbing their studies.I have three words for tourists like this:please be considerate. 39
The number of problems from tourists is endless:walking in large groups without considering others who need to walk by,crossing roads without observing local traffic laws,and many more.The only way to solve the issue of the terrible tourist is to make sure that you are not one! 40 Remember,whenever you step outside your country’s borders,you are representing your country to the rest of the world.
A.Just think from other aspects.
B.When in Rome,do as the Romans do.
C.Have fun in a way that does not disturb others.
D.Be the best,kindest,most polite tourist possible.
E.I have three words for people like this:please stop it.
F.One growing problem is tourists who want to prove that they have visited someplace.
G.Some tourists wander around and take pictures of local people without asking for their permission.
答案与解析
【语篇解读】这是一篇议论文。本文叙述中国人旅游过程中经常出现的一些问题,并针对这些问题提倡大家要文明出游。
36.F 第一段最后提到游客也可能带来一些问题。第二段第一句有必要承上启下讲出第一个问题,空格后具体提到了游客们在景点写字。因此F项(一个日益严重的问题是游客们想证明他们去过某个地方)符合上下文语境,并且此句也和第三段第一句话中的“Anotherbigproblem”遥相呼应。故选F项。
37.E 前文提到因为乱写乱画致使很多景点被破坏,所以此处是告诫人们“不要这样做”,紧接着提出具体的建议。因此E选项(我对这样的人要说三个字:请停止)符合上下文语意。这句也和第三段的“Ihavethreewords...”相呼应。故选E项。
38.G 前文提到在一些地方,另一个大问题是游客扰乱了当地人们的生活。此处应具体解释游客如何扰乱了当地人们的生活。根据后面Forexample介绍了发生在两所大学的具体事例,G选项(一些游客在未经允许的情况下四处游荡,给当地人拍照)符合上下文语意。故选G项。
39.C 此处是对前面的“beconsiderate(要做到体贴他人)”作具体的解释说明,因此C选项(以不打扰他人的方式享受乐趣)符合前文语意。故选C项。
40.D 前句强调确保自己不做“theterribletourist(糟糕的游客)”,紧接着应该说明如何做一名合格的游客,并且与后面一句构成因果关系:因为出国旅游代表的是自己国家的形象,所以D项(要尽可能成为最好、最友善、最有礼貌的游客)符合上下文语意。故选D项。
第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分)

It was actually extremely 51 .If any one of a number of factors had been different,I would have died.If I had been the last to exit,even if the pilot had been aware I was 52 underneath the plane,he alone would still have had to 53 at some point.
Blue Skies,Black Death is the skydivers’ mantra(咒语).There’s the freedom and 54 of the open sky.But in order to 55 this joy,you must accept that there is usually only one outcome if something goes wrong.

主题语境:人与自我 语篇类型:说明文
You may like reading novels for fun.But you need to get 56 (organise) if you are reading a novel for school.Here 57 (be) some tips.
First,pay attention to characters.What do they do in the novel?What do they want?Everything— 58 is about a character can help us to understand him,from his 59 (appear) to the kind of food he eats.
Besides,the order of the story and the plot are 60 (equal) important.Make sure that as you read,you make 61 quick note of what happens in each chapter.This will help you bring the things you have noticed about the character,setting,language and so on together.It’s also an enormous help for you to retell the story after you have read it.
Next,themes.They are ideas that a novel explores. 62 is a must to get the hang of the theme if you want to fully appreciate the novel.Perhaps love is a major theme,or justice,or 63 (survive).
Furthermore,novels are made up 64 language.Writers use language in a special way 65 (make) their novels work.They may use metaphors(比喻),invent symbols,or show different characters’ personalities through their speech styles.
答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文作者就阅读小说提出了一些建议,在读小说的过程中要注意人物形象、故事顺序、情节、主题和语言。
56.organised 考查过去分词。句意:如果你读小说你需要有条理。此处是“get+过去分词”结构表示状态,故填organised。
57.are 考查主谓一致。句意:这里有一些建议。tips是复数形式,故填复数形式are。
58.that 考查定语从句。句意:关于主人公的一切都能帮助我们理解他。因为先行词是不定代词Everything,引导词只能用that,故填that。
59.appearance 考查名词。句意:关于主人公的一切都能帮助我们理解他,从他的外貌到他吃的食物。根据his可知此处要用appear的名词形式,故填appearance。
60.equally 考查副词。句意:此外,故事的顺序和情节也是同等重要的。此处修饰形容词important要用副词形式,故填equally。
61.a 考查冠词。句意:确保你读的时候,把每章中发生的事快速做笔记。此处note是可数名词,makeaquicknote指快速做笔记。故填a。
62.It 考查it的用法。此处it作形式主语,真正的主语是不定式togetthehangofthetheme。句意:如果你想充分欣赏小说,掌握小说的主题是非常必要的。故填it。
63.survival 考查名词。句意:或许爱、正义或生存是小说永恒的主题。此处和前面的majortheme,justice并列,要用survive的名词形式,故填survival。
64.of 考查固定短语。bemadeupof“由……组成”,句意:此外,小说由语言构成。
65.tomake 考查不定式。句意:作者以特殊的方式运用语言使自己的作品起作用。此处是不定式表目的,故填tomake。

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开关语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Mail lay scattered across the kitchen table.I couldn’t put off sorting through it any longer.I checked the envelopes,putting aside the ones addressed to my husband.
It had been over three years since Bob had died.To friends and family it looked like I had moved past the worst of my sorrow.I took care of my house,socialised and kept up with community.On the outside everything appeared to be normal.But inside I was anything but I worried I would never get better,never be myself again.They say sorrow has no set time limit,but I was so tired of feeling empty and hopeless.My sorrow was sharp and fresh as ever.It was like a wall of pressure in my chest,pressing my heart.
I picked up a piece of Bob’s mail and held it out to tear in half,but stopped myself from cutting up the envelope.The letter was from an organisation that funded a Haitian orphanage called My Father’s House.Its founder,Carol Hawthorne,had given a presentation at our church.Bob and I had donated,and Bob ended up on the mailing list to receive the newsletter (通讯) with updates on the children.
I hadn’t read one since Bob died.But just three months before,in January,the country had been hit by a terrible earthquake.In my depressed state,it hadn’t even occurred to me to wonder whether the orphanage had survived.I opened the newsletter and was surprised to find out that My Father’s House was still standing.Of course now it was more crowded than ever.At the bottom of the page was an announcement about an upcoming trip to visit the orphanage in person.“I should go.” The thought wouldn’t leave me.I contacted Carol Hawthorne.“What would I do if I go?”I asked.“Build houses?”
“The Haitian people there are eager to work and they know what they’re doing,”said Carol.“What they need are raw materials,and we provide them.We also visit with the children.We go to clinics and schools,pass out supplies.You’ll be very busy,I promise!”I reserved a seat but didn’t mention it to any of my friends.Just a few weeks later,I was at the airport with seven strangers,waiting to board a plane to Haiti.Even after takeoff I wasn’t really sure of what I was doing.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。

InHaitiweweremetbyPastorRonaldLefranc,thedirectorofMyFather’sHouse.A crowd of children—52 in all—rushed up to greet us.I couldn’t understand the words of the song they sang in Creole,but with the smiles on their faces I didn’t need to.Each child planted a big kiss on my cheek.
CarolandPastorRonaldledusintothemainbuilding.Pastor Ronald told us that there was a collection of tents.Many of these children came to the orphanage after the earthquake.They still didn’t feel safe sleeping under a roof.But there was no sign of fear in the playroom inside.I played dolls and other games.Children I’d just met presented me with pictures they’d drawn and letters written in Creole.In the evening the children gathered in the dining room.They took turns reading aloud and then they all joined in the song.The words were strange,but the tune sounded familiar.They’d lost so much,yet were so joyful.

MyFirstMarathon
A month before my first marathon,one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks,leaving me only two weeks to train.Yet,I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in the school.In my first P.E.class,the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball.I didn’t do either well.He later informed me that I was “not athletic”.
The idea that I was “not athletic” stuck with me for years.When I started running in my 30s,I realised running was a battle against myself,not about competition or whether or not I was athletic.It was all about the battle against my own body and mind.A test of wills!
The night before my marathon,I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line.I woke up sweating and nervous,but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line,my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied.So I stopped to readjust.Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3,I passed a sign:“GO FOR IT,RUNNERS!”
By mile 17,I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly.Despite the pain,I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
By mile 21,I was starving!
As I approached mile 23,I could see my wife waving a sign.She is my biggest fan.She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 am or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish.But I finished!And I got a medal.In fact,I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself,move forward,free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签),I can now call myself a “marathon winner”.

主题语境:人与自然 语篇类型:议论文
(2020山东泰安高二上学期期末)
There’s a lot we know about eggs:they are great for breakfast and you can cook them in different ways.One topic of debate,however,is why brown chicken eggs usually cost more than white ones.According to Sharman Hickman,the director of Community Outreach and Education for Hickman’s Family Farms,genetics (基因学) not nutrition determines the eggshell colour and thus the egg’s price.
The chicken breed (品种) and their genetics decide whether or not hens have pigment (色素) genes,which coat the egg and result in a coloured shell during the egg-laying process.Although all eggs start out white in colour,shell colour can range from white to brown and even blue in some rare breeds,Hickman adds.Breeds such as the Leghorn chicken lays white eggs,while the Orpington lays brown eggs and the Ameraucana produces blue eggs.
Hickman notes that the Leghorn breed is the most efficient egg-laying hen,making it a popular choice for farmers.Hens that produce coloured eggshells,however,tend to be larger and require more feed and energy to create that painted layer.Since those breeds cost more to feed,their eggs are more expensive.
Although eggs sometimes look different and are priced differently,it’s impossible to know their nutritional make-up from the shell colour alone,according to Malina Linkas Malkani,media spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.“Choosing between brown and white eggs is a matter of personal preference,” she says.“But it’s important for people to know that the colour of the eggshell has nothing to do with the egg’s nutrient content or shell thickness.”
What does affect the nutrient content is the specific diet the hen is on,according to Malkani.For example,hens fed with a diet with omega-3s and vitamin D produce eggs that are higher in those specific nutrients.No matter what your preference is,don’t judge an egg by its shell colour.
【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了母鸡的品种使蛋壳的颜色不同。影响鸡蛋营养成分的是母鸡的特定饮食,而不是蛋壳的颜色。
28.Which of the following is one of the arguments about eggs?
A.Which eggs are difficult to break.

(2020湖南浏阳高二上学期期末)
Smoking in your own home in Thailand may now be considered a crime,if the smoke is considered harmful to other people in the house.
The new law,Family Protection and Development Promotion Act,aiming at controlling smoking at home which might be hazardous for others’ health living under the same roof,was initiated by the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security and was announced in the Royal Gazette on May 22,2019.It came into force on August 20.
According to the centre for research and knowledge management for tobacco control,at the Faculty of Medical Science of Mahidol University,there are about 4.9 million households where one or more family members smoke.An average of 10.3 million people have unwittingly(不知不觉地) become passive smokers because they’ve been breathing smoke at home.Scientific studies show that passive smokers are at greater risk of being affected by cancer.Of 75 child patients from houses where smoking is practiced,76% of them were found to have nicotine traces in their urine(尿液),with 43% of them having nicotine content exceeding(超过) permissible levels.
Smoking at home also “may lead to physical or emotional violence” because of aggressiveness when there is a lack of smoking,and might as well ruin relationships between smokers and non-smoker family members.
According to the new law,anyone who thinks they are affected by domestic smoking can report to government departments concerned so that officials will be sent to investigate and take legal action against the smokers.Once convicted(证明有罪的),the court may order a person to receive treatment to quit smoking in an attempt to protect the person’s family.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。作者通过相关研究数据表明,在家中吸烟会危及家人的身体健康,甚至还可能破坏吸烟者和不吸烟的家庭成员之间的关系。根据新的法律,在泰国,在自己家里吸烟现在可能被视为犯罪。
32.What does the underlined word “hazardous” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

解析词义猜测题。根据第二段的“Thenewlaw,...aimingatcontrollingsmokingathomewhichmightbehazardousforothers’healthlivingunderthesameroof,wasinitiatedbytheMinistryofSocialDevelopmentandHumanSecurity”和常识可知,吸烟有害人们身体健康。hazardous意为“危险的”,相当于dangerous,故选D项。
33.How does the author organise Paragraph 3?
A.By listing figures.
B.By giving examples.
C.By comparing the differences.
D.By explaining the reasons.
答案A
解析推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知,作者列出了Mahidol大学医学院的烟草控制研究和知识管理中心的相关数据,说明了490万家庭中有一个或多个家庭成员吸烟,平均有1030万人不知不觉地成为被动吸烟者。并通过数据说明被动吸烟者患癌症的风险更大,由此可推知,作者通过列举数字的方法组织第三段内容。故选A项。
34.We can learn from the passage that .
A.smoking anywhere in Thailand is considered a crime
B.passive smokers are more likely to have lung cancer
C.76% of the children in Thailand have nicotine traces in their urine
D.smoking at home may hurt other family members both physically and emotionally

B.officials will take legal action against all the people concerned
C.smoking in one’s own home in Thailand may now be considered a crime

主题语境:人与社会 语篇类型:说明文
Tourism can be both good and bad.Yes,it brings in money for the local economy and creates lots of jobs for locals,but it may also bring some problems.
36 Tourists have used paint,rocks,or even keys to write on the Luxor Temple in Egypt,the Colosseum in Rome,Stonehenge in the UK,memorial stones at the bottom of Qomolangma,and many,many other places.Thousands of tourists sites are being destroyed by tourists who “love them to death”. 37 If you want to leave a mark on the world,do it by changing someone’s life with kindness and love.Pass kindness along to future generations,not destruction.
Another big problem in some places has been tourists disturbing the local people and life. 38 For example,Chiang Mai University in Thailand and Yonsei University in South Korea have great numbers of tourists visiting their campuses and walking through their libraries and other public areas,taking pictures of students and disturbing their studies.I have three words for tourists like this:please be considerate. 39
The number of problems from tourists is endless:walking in large groups without considering others who need to walk by,crossing roads without observing local traffic laws,and many more.The only way to solve the issue of the terrible tourist is to make sure that you are not one! 40 Remember,whenever you step outside your country’s borders,you are representing your country to the rest of the world.
A.Just think from other aspects.
B.When in Rome,do as the Romans do.
C.Have fun in a way that does not disturb others.
D.Be the best,kindest,most polite tourist possible.
E.I have three words for people like this:please stop it.
F.One growing problem is tourists who want to prove that they have visited someplace.
G.Some tourists wander around and take pictures of local people without asking for their permission.
答案与解析
【语篇解读】这是一篇议论文。本文叙述中国人旅游过程中经常出现的一些问题,并针对这些问题提倡大家要文明出游。
36.F 第一段最后提到游客也可能带来一些问题。第二段第一句有必要承上启下讲出第一个问题,空格后具体提到了游客们在景点写字。因此F项(一个日益严重的问题是游客们想证明他们去过某个地方)符合上下文语境,并且此句也和第三段第一句话中的“Anotherbigproblem”遥相呼应。故选F项。
37.E 前文提到因为乱写乱画致使很多景点被破坏,所以此处是告诫人们“不要这样做”,紧接着提出具体的建议。因此E选项(我对这样的人要说三个字:请停止)符合上下文语意。这句也和第三段的“Ihavethreewords...”相呼应。故选E项。
38.G 前文提到在一些地方,另一个大问题是游客扰乱了当地人们的生活。此处应具体解释游客如何扰乱了当地人们的生活。根据后面Forexample介绍了发生在两所大学的具体事例,G选项(一些游客在未经允许的情况下四处游荡,给当地人拍照)符合上下文语意。故选G项。
39.C 此处是对前面的“beconsiderate(要做到体贴他人)”作具体的解释说明,因此C选项(以不打扰他人的方式享受乐趣)符合前文语意。故选C项。
40.D 前句强调确保自己不做“theterribletourist(糟糕的游客)”,紧接着应该说明如何做一名合格的游客,并且与后面一句构成因果关系:因为出国旅游代表的是自己国家的形象,所以D项(要尽可能成为最好、最友善、最有礼貌的游客)符合上下文语意。故选D项。

First,pay attention to characters.What do they do in the novel?What do they want?Everything— 58 is about a character can help us to understand him,from his 59 (appear) to the kind of food he eats.
Besides,the order of the story and the plot are 60 (equal) important.Make sure that as you read,you make 61 quick note of what happens in each chapter.This will help you bring the things you have noticed about the character,setting,language and so on together.It’s also an enormous help for you to retell the story after you have read it.
Next,themes.They are ideas that a novel explores. 62 is a must to get the hang of the theme if you want to fully appreciate the novel.Perhaps love is a major theme,or justice,or 63 (survive).
Furthermore,novels are made up 64 language.Writers use language in a special way 65 (make) their novels work.They may use metaphors(比喻),invent symbols,or show different characters’ personalities through their speech styles.
答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文作者就阅读小说提出了一些建议,在读小说的过程中要注意人物形象、故事顺序、情节、主题和语言。
56.organised 考查过去分词。句意:如果你读小说你需要有条理。此处是“get+过去分词”结构表示状态,故填organised。
57.are 考查主谓一致。句意:这里有一些建议。tips是复数形式,故填复数形式are。
58.that 考查定语从句。句意:关于主人公的一切都能帮助我们理解他。因为先行词是不定代词Everything,引导词只能用that,故填that。
59.appearance 考查名词。句意:关于主人公的一切都能帮助我们理解他,从他的外貌到他吃的食物。根据his可知此处要用appear的名词形式,故填appearance。
60.equally 考查副词。句意:此外,故事的顺序和情节也是同等重要的。此处修饰形容词important要用副词形式,故填equally。
61.a 考查冠词。句意:确保你读的时候,把每章中发生的事快速做笔记。此处note是可数名词,makeaquicknote指快速做笔记。故填a。
62.It 考查it的用法。此处it作形式主语,真正的主语是不定式togetthehangofthetheme。句意:如果你想充分欣赏小说,掌握小说的主题是非常必要的。故填it。
63.survival 考查名词。句意:或许爱、正义或生存是小说永恒的主题。此处和前面的majortheme,justice并列,要用survive的名词形式,故填survival。
64.of 考查固定短语。bemadeupof“由……组成”,句意:此外,小说由语言构成。
65.tomake 考查不定式。句意:作者以特殊的方式运用语言使自己的作品起作用。此处是不定式表目的,故填tomake。

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开关语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Mail lay scattered across the kitchen table.I couldn’t put off sorting through it any longer.I checked the envelopes,putting aside the ones addressed to my husband.
It had been over three years since Bob had died.To friends and family it looked like I had moved past the worst of my sorrow.I took care of my house,socialised and kept up with community.On the outside everything appeared to be normal.But inside I was anything but I worried I would never get better,never be myself again.They say sorrow has no set time limit,but I was so tired of feeling empty and hopeless.My sorrow was sharp and fresh as ever.It was like a wall of pressure in my chest,pressing my heart.
I picked up a piece of Bob’s mail and held it out to tear in half,but stopped myself from cutting up the envelope.The letter was from an organisation that funded a Haitian orphanage called My Father’s House.Its founder,Carol Hawthorne,had given a presentation at our church.Bob and I had donated,and Bob ended up on the mailing list to receive the newsletter (通讯) with updates on the children.
I hadn’t read one since Bob died.But just three months before,in January,the country had been hit by a terrible earthquake.In my depressed state,it hadn’t even occurred to me to wonder whether the orphanage had survived.I opened the newsletter and was surprised to find out that My Father’s House was still standing.Of course now it was more crowded than ever.At the bottom of the page was an announcement about an upcoming trip to visit the orphanage in person.“I should go.” The thought wouldn’t leave me.I contacted Carol Hawthorne.“What would I do if I go?”I asked.“Build houses?”
“The Haitian people there are eager to work and they know what they’re doing,”said Carol.“What they need are raw materials,and we provide them.We also visit with the children.We go to clinics and schools,pass out supplies.You’ll be very busy,I promise!”I reserved a seat but didn’t mention it to any of my friends.Just a few weeks later,I was at the airport with seven strangers,waiting to board a plane to Haiti.Even after takeoff I wasn’t really sure of what I was doing.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。

InHaitiweweremetbyPastorRonaldLefranc,thedirectorofMyFather’sHouse.A crowd of children—52 in all—rushed up to greet us.I couldn’t understand the words of the song they sang in Creole,but with the smiles on their faces I didn’t need to.Each child planted a big kiss on my cheek.
CarolandPastorRonaldledusintothemainbuilding.Pastor Ronald told us that there was a collection of tents.Many of these children came to the orphanage after the earthquake.They still didn’t feel safe sleeping under a roof.But there was no sign of fear in the playroom inside.I played dolls and other games.Children I’d just met presented me with pictures they’d drawn and letters written in Creole.In the evening the children gathered in the dining room.They took turns reading aloud and then they all joined in the song.The words were strange,but the tune sounded familiar.They’d lost so much,yet were so joyful.
