Carlton McCoy, one of the wine industry’s newest heavy hitters, earned the Master Sommelier (侍酒师) title -the highest qualification in the wine industry.
Though he is now known in the field, McCoy entered the industry through the kitchen. He was raised by his grandmother in Washington, D.C. and cooking was a significant part of his childhood.As a winner in a cooking competition designed for disadvantaged teenagers,McCoy earned a full scholarship to a college, Culinary Institute of America(CIA). This was a major turning point in his life, as he hadn’t been planning to enter college.
“CIA’s like the military. You have to show up every day clean-shaven, and your knives must be sharp. If the chef can’t slice a sheet of paper with your knife, you have to go home and sharpen your knives,” McCoy says. “I know it’s very odd, but I actually thought it was fun.”
After earning his bachelor’s degree in CIA, McCoy moved to New York, where he found that servers made more money than cooks, so he became a temporary server. But he ended up really enjoying the delight of getting to connect with people over food and wine. “I like talking to people about food,” he says. “It was something I really missed in the past.”
To tell his customers more, he tried to learn about wine, and that was how he came to learn the Court of Master Sommeliers. At 28 years old, he became the second-youngest person in the world to pass the Master Sommelier exam. McCoy is now the CEO of Heitz Cellar.
“I think my existing in a high position hopefully can lead as an example to encourage others to be confident,”he says. “Just like ‘hey look, this is something I could do.’ To me, it’s worth it to take my career as far as I can just to show people that they can also makea difference.”
4. What led McCoy to go to college?
A. His passion for cooking.
B. His fame in the wine industry.
C. His grandma’s encouragement.
D. His scholarship from a competition.
5. Which of the following best describes the McCoy’s experience in CIA?
A. Risky and tiring. B. Meaningful but fruitless.
C. Difficult and unpleasant. D. Stressful but interesting.
6. Why did McCoy initially choose to be a server after earning his bachelor’s degree?
A. He could earn more money as a server.
B. He was able to learn more about wine.
C. He missed his childhood experience.
D. He was fond of interacting with people.
7. What can we learn from McCoy’s words in the last paragraph?
A. Details determine success or failure.
B. All things are difficult before they are easy.
C. Never underestimate your power to change yourself.
D. Knowledge without practice makes but half an artist.
【答案】4. D 5. D 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了卡尔顿·麦考伊如何成为了世界上第二年轻的侍酒师。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“As a winner in a cooking competition designed for disadvantaged teenagers,McCoy earned a full scholarship to a college, Culinary Institute of America(CIA). This was a major turning point in his life, as he hadn’t been planning to enter college.(作为为贫困青少年设计的烹饪比赛的获胜者,McCoy获得了美国烹饪学院(CIA)的全额奖学金。这是他人生中的一个重大转折点,因为他之前并没有打算上大学)”可知,他的比赛奖学金促使麦考伊上大学。故选D项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中““CIA’s like the military. You have to show up every day clean-shaven, and your knives must be sharp. If the chef can’t slice a sheet of paper with your knife, you have to go home and sharpen your knives,” McCoy says. “I know it’s very odd, but I actually thought it was fun.”(“美国烹饪学院就像军队。你每天都要把脸刮干净,你的刀也要锋利。如果厨师不能用你的刀切一张纸,你就得回家磨刀。”“我知道这很奇怪,但我真的觉得很有趣。”)”可知,在美国烹饪学院要求很高,压力很大,但是麦考伊觉得很有趣。故选D项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“After earning his bachelor’s degree in CIA, McCoy moved to New York, where he found that servers made more money than cooks, so he became a temporary server.(在中央情报局获得学士学位后,麦考伊搬到了纽约,在那里他发现服务员比厨师赚得多,所以他成为了一名临时服务员)”可知,麦考伊发现服务员比厨师赚得多,所以选择做一名服务员。故选A项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““I think my existing in a high position hopefully can lead as an example to encourage others to be confident,”he says. “Just like ‘hey look, this is something I could do. ’ To me, it’s worth it to take my career as far as I can just to show people that they can also makea difference.”(他说:“我希望自己身居高位能够成为一个榜样,鼓励其他人变得自信。”“就像‘嘿,看,这是我可以做的事情。’对我来说,为了让人们知道他们也可以有所作为,我的职业生涯可以走得更远,这是值得的。”)”可知,我们可以从McCoy最后一段的话中学到,他通过自己成为榜样,告诉他人永远不要低估你改变自己的能力。故选C项。
C
A handful of healthy soil could contain great numbers of living organisms. However, poisonous pesticides (杀虫剂) are causing harm and destruction to them, according to a recent analysis.
For the analysis, researchers looked through nearly 400 published studies including over 2,800 experiments on how pesticides affect soil organisms. They found that pesticides harmed organisms critical to maintaining healthy soils, but these harms have never been considered in the safety reviews of the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency).Poisonous pesticides are driving factors in the sharp decline of many soil organisms, such as ground beetles. They have been identified as the most significant driver of soil biodiversity loss in the last ten years.
However, that research has always been ignored. The EPA, which is responsible for pesticide supervision(监管)in the country, openly acknowledges that somewhere between 50 and 100 percent of all agriculturally applied pesticides end up on the soil. Yet, to assess pesticides’ harms to soil species, the agency just uses a single test species, the European honeybee, to estimate risk to all soil organisms. It spends its entire life above ground in artificial boxes.
Worse still, as soil health gain popularity globally, pesticide companies have jumped up to green wash and promote their products. Every major company is now advertising its role in improving soil health, such as advocating planting cover crops. As general beliefs, these practices are indeed good for soil health and, if adopted responsibly, are a great step to take. But companies know that these practices are often accompanied by increased pesticide use. Chemicals and pesticides have to be applied more frequently to kill weeds before crops are planted.
The long-term environmental cost can no longer be overlooked. Soils are some of the most complex ecosystems on Earth, containing nearly a quarter of the planet’s biodiversity. Protecting them should be a priority, not an afterthought.
8. What does the underlined word “They” refer to in Paragraph 2?
A. Soil organisms. B. Ground beetles.
C. Artificial boxes. D. Poisonous pesticides.
9. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. The honeybee is a typical species living in nature.
B. The assessment of pesticides’ harms is one-sided.
C. Less than half of applied pesticide go to the soil eventually.
D. The EPA attaches great importance to pesticide inspection.
10. Why do pesticide companies advocate planting cover crops?
A. To obey the EPA’s rules.
B. To increase their product sales.
C. To protect the environment.
D. To shoulder their social responsibility.
11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Soil: essential to agriculture.
B. Pesticides: harmful to soil health.
C. Organisms: significant to harvest.
D. Pollution: destructive to biodiversity.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。少量健康的土壤就可能含有大量的生物体。然而,根据最近的一项分析,有毒的农药正在对它们造成伤害和破坏。
【8题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段“Poisonous pesticides are driving factors in the sharp decline of many soil organisms, such as ground beetles. They have been identified as the most significant driver of soil biodiversity loss in the last ten years.(有毒农药是导致许多土壤生物(如地甲虫)数量急剧下降的原因。它们被认为是过去十年土壤生物多样性丧失的最重要的驱动因素。)”可知,they指代Poisonous pesticides有毒的农药。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“However, that research has always been ignored. The EPA, which is responsible for pesticide supervision(监管)in the country, openly acknowledges that somewhere between 50 and 100 percent of all agriculturally applied pesticides end up on the soil. Yet, to assess pesticides’ harms to soil species, the agency just uses a single test species, the European honeybee, to estimate risk to all soil organisms. (然而,这项研究一直被忽视。负责全国农药监管的美国环境保护署(EPA)公开承认,所有农业上使用的农药中,有50%到100%最终会进入土壤。然而,为了评估农药对土壤物种的危害,该机构只使用单一的测试物种——欧洲蜜蜂,来评估对所有土壤生物的风险。)”可知,对农药危害的评估是片面的。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Worse still, as soil health gain popularity globally, pesticide companies have jumped up to green wash and promote their products.Every major company is now advertising its role in improving soil health, such as advocating planting cover crops. As general beliefs, these practices are indeed good for soil health and, if adopted responsibly, are a great step to take. But companies know that these practices are often accompanied by increased pesticide use. Chemicals and pesticides have to be applied more frequently to kill weeds before crops are planted.(更糟糕的是,随着土壤健康在全球范围内越来越受欢迎,农药公司纷纷投身于绿色清洗和推广他们的产品。每家大公司现在都在宣传自己在改善土壤健康方面的作用,比如提倡种植覆盖作物。)”可知,农药公司提倡种植覆盖作物为了增加他们的产品销售。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“A handful of healthy soil could contain great numbers of living organisms. However, poisonous pesticides (杀虫剂) are causing harm and destruction to them, according to a recent analysis.(少量健康的土壤就可能含有大量的生物体。然而,根据最近的一项分析,有毒的农药正在对它们造成伤害和破坏。)”可知,B“Pesticides: harmful to soil health.(农药:对土壤健康有害)”适合做最佳标题。故选B。
D
As winter approaches, warm-blooded animals choose to handle the cold in a social way: crowding together in bunches. From mice to Himalayan rabbits, individuals in a group will gather together to share the heat from their bodies and avoid the risk of dying from cold.
While humans may not physically crowd together, our ancestors would have been relying on the support of others for food, fuel and shelter, and this would have been especially important when it was cold. Thus, they might be very sensitive to others when the temperature dropped. They were likely to seek out other sources of warmth, if they felt that they could no longer rely on the group for support.
Psychologist Geoffrey was the first to investigate that. He turned to a video game called Cyberball, which attempts to recreate the kind of social rejection that many of us might have experience din the playground. Each participant is seemingly placed in a group of three and asked to play virtual catch with two other people, hidden out of sight. In fact, two of the players are controlled by a computer. In the beginning, these computerized players are designed to throw the ball to the participant, but after a while they begin to avoid the participant as programmed, so that the participant no longer feels involved in the game. Having been excluded by the other players, the participant reports feeling rejected. And the participants have the tendency to look for sources of warmth as comfort.
Like all psychological discoveries,it may be of significance to human’s mental health. It’s said that patients with depression often report feeling cold. A deeper understanding of the psychological mechanism might suggest new treatments for this disorder. More immediately, with fuel bills increasing, the emotional effects of the cold this winter need to be considered. Clearly, practical solutions to the fuel crisis must come first,but we might also look for ways to connect more with those around us like animals crowding together both physically and socially.
12. Why does the author mention “mice” and “rabbits” in Paragraph 1?
A. To make a prediction.
B. To draw a comparison.
C. To explain a regulation.
D. To illustrate a phenomenon.
13. What can we infer about our ancestors?
A. They depended on each other for survival.
B. They tended to live close to one another.
C. They were relatively more sensitive to cold.
D. They had abundant sources of warmth in winter.
14. What are the participants likely to do when they feel rejected?
A. They may buy an ice-cream.
B. They may drink a cup of hot coffee.
C. They may eat some potato chips.
D. They may consume cool orange juice.
15. Which of the following is true about the discovery?
A. It helps solve the fuel crisis.
B. It provides reasons for depression.
C. It contributes to the emotional health.
D. It suggests less connection between people.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。心理学家杰弗里通过一款名为Cyberball的电子游戏对参与者就温度下降人类是否会寻找其他温暖的来源进行调查,发现被其他玩家排除在外后,参与者倾向于寻找温暖的来源作为安慰。像所有心理学的发现一样,它可能对人类的心理健康有重要意义。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“As winter approaches, warm-blooded animals choose to handle the cold in a social way: crowding together in bunches. From mice to Himalayan rabbits, individuals in a group will gather together to share the heat from their bodies and avoid the risk of dying from cold.(随着冬天的临近,温血动物会选择群居的方式来应对寒冷:聚集在一起。从老鼠到喜马拉雅兔子,群体中的个体会聚集在一起,分享身体的热量,避免因寒冷而死亡的风险。)”可知,第一段提到老鼠和兔子目的为了说明一种现象:温血动物会选择群居的方式来应对寒冷。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“While humans may not physically crowd together, our ancestors would have been relying on the support of others for food, fuel and shelter, and this would have been especially important when it was cold. (虽然人类在身体上可能不会挤在一起,但我们的祖先在食物、燃料和住所方面一直依赖他人的支持,这在寒冷的时候尤其重要。)”可知,我们的祖先们依靠彼此生存。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Having been excluded by the other players, the participant reports feeling rejected. And the participants have the tendency to look for sources of warmth as comfort.(被其他玩家排除在外后,参与者报告了被拒绝的感觉。参与者倾向于寻找温暖的来源作为安慰。)”可知,当参与者感到被拒绝时,他们可能会喝一杯热咖啡。故选B。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Like all psychological discoveries,it may be of significance to human’s mental health.(像所有心理学的发现一样,它可能对人类的心理健康有重要意义。)”可知,这一发现有助于情感健康。故选C。
第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Why is it important to think in English? Things will just be easier and faster if you don’t translate so much. ____16____ That’s very unrealistic, particularly if it’s not the only language you speak. But the more you practice, the easier it becomes. So, what can be done to help you think in English?
•____17____
Nowadays, most people look at their phones or computers constantly. If you change the language to English, not only will you possibly learn some new vocabulary, but English will become a bigger part of your daily life. Besides, think about the apps that you use frequently and change the language settings.
•Describe what you see in English in your head.
You can do this when you’re sitting at home, walking in a park, or traveling on a train. If you’re a beginner or you’re feeling lazy or you don’t have much energy, you can just use single words.____18____
•Imagine sentences you might use in a conversation.
It can also be a good idea to write sentences down and practice saying them so that they almost become automatic. ____19____ For example, if you’ve recently reached an English-speaking country and you’ll attend a party, it’s possible that people will ask you questions, like where you’re from or what your plans are.
•Think of what you’ve done at the end of the day in English.
Before you go to bed, you can also write them down. If you think that will take too much time, a nice alterative is just writing down positive things. ____20____ Not only might that put you in a better mood,but you are also likely to finish tasks more efficiently.
A. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect.
B. Try to think in English as much as possible.
C. However, it is better if you can use full sentences.
D. Change the language of your electronic devices and apps.
E. Try to predict the types of conversations that you will have.
F. So, anything that made you happy or that you enjoyed is OK.
G. It doesn’t mean you have to be thinking in English all the time.
【答案】16. G 17. D 18. C 19. E 20. F
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了四种帮助我们学会用英语思考的建议。
【16题详解】
空前“Things will just be easier and faster if you don’t translate so much. (如果你不翻译那么多,事情会变得更简单更快)”讲述在用英语思考时,不要过多翻译,空后“That’s very unrealistic, particularly if it’s not the only language you speak. (这是非常不现实的,特别是如果这不是你唯一会说的语言)”强调该空的做法不现实,所以G选项“It doesn’t mean you have to be thinking in English all the time. (这并不意味着你必须一直用英语思考)”符合题意,承上启下,选项中的“thinking in English all the time”呼应前文的“don’t translate so much”,后文进一步解释一直用英语思考这件事不现实。故选G。
【17题详解】
由后面段落的结构和位置可知,该空是本段的主旨句,且是祈使句结构。根据空后“Nowadays, most people look at their phones or computers constantly. If you change the language to English, not only will you possibly learn some new vocabulary, but English will become a bigger part of your daily life. Besides, think about the apps that you use frequently and change the language settings. (如今,大多数人经常看他们的手机或电脑。如果你把语言换成英语,你不仅可能会学到一些新词汇,而且英语将成为你日常生活中更大的一部分。此外,考虑一下你经常使用的应用程序,并更改语言设置)”强调把平时用的手机或电脑中的语言改成英语,所以D选项“Change the language of your electronic devices and apps. (改变你的电子设备和应用程序的语言)”符合本段主题。故选D。
【18题详解】
空前“If you’re a beginner or you’re feeling lazy or you don’t have much energy, you can just use single words. (如果你是初学者,或者你觉得懒惰,或者你没有太多精力,你可以只用单个单词去表达英文)”强调用单词去表达英语,C选项“However, it is better if you can use full sentences. (然而,如果你能使用完整的句子就更好了)”承接上文,强调用完整的句子去表达英语会更好,和前一句形成对比。故选C。
【19题详解】
本段的主题是“Imagine sentences you might use in a conversation. (想象一下你在对话中可能用到的句子)”,所以本段都在围绕imagine sentences这一主题。E选项“Try to predict the types of conversations that you will have. (试着预测你们将要进行的对话类型)”中的“predict”呼应主题imagine;且承接下文,空后“For example, if you’ve recently reached an English-speaking country and you’ll attend a party, it’s possible that people will ask you questions, like where you’re from or what your plans are. (例如,如果你最近到了一个说英语的国家,你要参加一个聚会,人们可能会问你问题,比如你从哪里来,你的计划是什么)”用具体的例子来解释如何预测对话类型。故选E。
【20题详解】
空前“If you think that will take too much time, a nice alterative is just writing down positive things. (如果你认为这将花费太多时间,一个不错的选择是写下积极的事情)”作者建议如果觉得花费太久,可以写下积极的事情,F选项“So, anything that made you happy or that you enjoyed is OK. (所以,任何让你开心或喜欢的事情都可以)”承接上文,选项中的“happy”和“enjoyed”呼应前文所说的“positive things”。故选F。
第三部分 语言运用 (共两节,满分30分)

Gently, Sandy stroked the baby’s fist. Surprisingly, she grabbed Sandy’s finger. Immediately Sandy felt something ____28____ her heart: this pitiful baby ____29____ to her. “It’s like she’s asking me to fight for her.

47. 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。
Eartha lost her balance and fell heavily onto the floor. “I’ll never be as flexible as you are, Grandma.” she sighed softly.
Eartha’s Grandma had been practising yoga for more than 50 years, who could twist, bend and curl her body with ease. She could even stand on her hands and pull her body into different poses.
“Eartha, your name means ‘patience’.You need patience for yoga,” said her Grandma.
Like many schools in the country,Eartha’ s school held an annual yoga competition. Eartha wanted to make her Grandma proud. But she could hardly stand on one leg.
Grandma returned to the kitchen.Eartha kept practicing hard. She stood straight, her arms at her sides. She moved her hands and knees, arching her back. All of these poses were easy,while the competition was certain to be harder. So she tried more challenging poses, lying on her stomach and pushing up on her hands. Her arms soon got tired and she collapsed to the floor. Eartha wandered into the kitchen.
“Finished already?” asked Grandma.
“It’s hard,” Eartha said. “How did you get to be so strong?”
Grandma smiled. “Patience.”
The next morning, Eartha felt ached and sore all over the body. Her legs hurt so badly from the poses she practiced that she even wanted to quit. However, her grandmother’s words echoed in her mind, and she held the pose for a longer time.
Each day Eartha would practice anew pose, before going over the poses she had practiced the previous few days.With the date of the competition approaching, she started to feel stronger and more flexible. Her arms and legs stopped trembling.
The day of the yoga competition arrived as expected. In the gym, Eartha lay on her back with her knees bent and placed her hands on the floor behind her. Everything went smoothly. Just then,so eager was she to win Grandma’s pride that her poses displayed a mix of impatience, and rigidness. Eartha fell on the mat, which cost her edge over other competitors. A bell rang, ending the first half of the competition.
1.续写词数应为150左右:
2.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Thinking she ruined all because of impatience, Eartha looked at the audience for Grandma.

Calm and confident, Eartha stepped on the stage for the second half of the competition.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Thinking she ruined all because of impatience, Eartha looked at the audience for Grandma. Grandma settled at the front seat, kindly smiling and waving to her. Head hanging, Eartha shuffled to Grandma with heavy footsteps.“I’m proud of you!” Grandma whispered softly. Astonished and unexpected, Eartha stared at Grandma with a bit skeptical expression. Although relieved of frustration temporarily, she was increasingly concerned about the next half. Sensing her worries, Grandma asked if she still remembered the meaning of her name. Eartha nodded, reflecting on her hard practices.
Calm and confident, Eartha stepped on the stage for the second half of the competition. Completely relaxed, Eartha immersed herself in poses, letting go of anything that might distract her. So full of patience and balance was every pose that flexibility was perfectly demonstrated, which made her standout among other competitors. When she finished, the whole gym burst into thunderous applause and grandma beamed at her with unprecedented pride. Smiling back, Eartha ultimately understood the significance of patience and calmness.
