A
The following 4 famous paintings — from Jan van Eyck's portrait to Pablo Picasso's masterpiece — have stood the test of time.
The Amolfini Portrait
Jan van Eyck’s Amolfini Portrait, an oil painting on wood produced in 1434, in which a man and a woman hold hands with a window behind him and a bed behind her, is undoubtedly one of the masterpieces in the National Gallery, London. This painting is as visually interesting as it is famed. It is also an informative document on fifteenth-century society, through van Eyck's heavy use of symbolism — while husbands went out to engage in business, wives concerned themselves with domestic duties.
The Starry Night
Vincent van Gogh painted The Starry Night, oil on canvas (帆布), a moderately abstract landscape painting of an expressive night sky over a small hillside village, during his 12-month stay at the mental hospital near Saint–Remy-de-Provence, France between 1889 and 1890. When the Museum of Modem Art in New York City purchased the painting from a private collector in 1941, it was not well known, but it has since become one of van Gogh's most famous works.
The Harvesters
The Harvesters is an oil painting on wood completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565. It depicts the harvest time which most commonly occurred within the months of August and September. Nicolaes Jonghelinck, a merchant banker and art collector from Antwerp, commissioned this painting. The painting has been at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City since 1919.
Guernica
Guernica, a large black-and-white oil painting, was painted by the Cubist Spanish painter, Pablo Picasso in 1937. The title 'Guernica' refers to the city that was bombed by Nazi planes during the Spanish Civil War. The painting depicts the horrors of war and as a result, has come to be an anti-war symbol and a reminder of the tragedies of war. Today, the painting is housed at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid.
1. Which of the following paintings was produced earliest?
A. Guernica. B. The Harvesters.
C. The Starry Night. D. The Amolfini Portrait.
2. Who created the painting describing the harvest seasons?
A. Pieter Bruegel the Elder. B. Vincent van Gogh.
C. Jan van Eyck. D. Pablo Picasso.
3. What do we know about the paintingThe Starry Night?
A. It was painted on wood in oils.
B. It described the painter's life in hospital.
C. It wasn't widely recognized before 1941.
D. It was given away to the museum by a collector.
【答案】1. D 2. A 3. C
【解析】

Aaron Weaver was born with only his left eye. It was possible that this would also come with brain damage. There was a million-to-one chance that he would not have brain damage, yet he doesn't. He went through 25 operations and received an artificial eye.
He grew up in a town in North Carolina and attended the local schools. When he was in the 4th grade, he dreamed of becoming an author and he carried that dream with him throughout his life, but he faced many difficulties.
From his first day of pre-school to his last day of high school, he was looked at strangely and called names. Each year it would get worse and worse. People would call him "Cyclops" and would tell him that he was a mistake. Along with this he suffered from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder(强迫症), which made it more difficult for him to do normal daily activates.
In 2016 he graduated from high school. With the support of a loving family and the help of teachers and friends, he began to write a book about one of his favorite things, zombies(僵尸).A year later, Aaron completed his book and one of his former teachers helped him find a publishing company. The teacher gave the book to the company, Covenant Books, and they decided to publish it. In late 2017, The Human Apocalypse was published and is now being sold in most bookshops.

Ask people in the UK what the words “Sunday roast” mean to them, and they’ll probably take you back to their grandmothers’ dining rooms - maybe with a few stories of “the greatest puddings” and “the best ever steak”. But now the traditional Sunday roast seems to have been left back in the old days. According to the Daily Mail, just one in 50 British families sits down to this weekly meal together.
There are many reasons why the roast is becoming less popular. In the busy modern world, where breakfast is a slice of toast eaten on the way to work or school and lunch is a quick sandwich in front of the computer screen, people just don’t seem to have the time or patience to make a roast.
And Sunday was once a day when people could easily go to the kitchen to cook. Nowadays, people are often out shopping or at the cinema until it’s far too late to start thinking about heating the oven (烤箱) up.
However, a recent article from The Telegraph warned against being carried away by our tight schedules: “It would be a shame to let this fine old tradition disappear.”
The Guardian further explained that the eating of the big meal is only the half of it. The Sunday roast also makes for relaxed morning activities in the kitchen, and the table becomes the perfect place to share good food and chat with family and friends. “For busy moms and dads, even if you can manage to turn off your mobile phone and the TV only once a week and turn the Sunday roast into a real family event, children can have fun cooking the food and clearing up together.”
8. Why do people pay less attention to Sunday roast?
A. They have a busy lifestyle.
B. They have no interest in cooking.
C. They don’t think it worthwhile.
D. They are living in the modern society.
9. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. A recent article. B. A traditional kitchen.
C. The fine old tradition. D. The Sunday morning activity.
10. How does the author feel towards Sunday roast’s dying out?
A. Doubtful. B. Positive.
C. Uncertain. D. Sorry.
11. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Sunday-Best Time for Family B. Sunday Roast Dying Out
C. It’s the Perfect Time for Us D. Let’s Sit Down Together
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了忙碌的生活方式导致英国传统的每周一次的家庭“周日烤肉”活动几乎成为过去时的现象。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“In the busy modern world, where breakfast is a slice of toast eaten on the way to work or school and lunch is a quick sandwich in front of the computer screen, people just don’t seem to have the time or patience to make a roast.(在繁忙的现代社会，早餐是在上班或上学的路上吃一片吐司，午餐是在电脑屏幕前快速吃一个三明治，人们似乎只是没有时间或耐心做一个烤肉。)”可知，在这个忙碌的现代世界里，人们似乎没有时间和耐心烤肉了。由此可推知，忙碌的生活方式导致周日烤肉活动正在逐渐消失。故选A。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据最后一段前两句“The Guardian further explained that the eating of the big meal is only the half of it. The Sunday roast also makes for relaxed morning activities in the kitchen, and the table becomes the perfect place to share good food and chat with family and friends.”可知，周日烤肉活动有助于人们在厨房里放松，餐桌成了亲朋好友分享美食以及聊天的好地方。由此可知，吃大餐只是周日烤肉活动的一部分，故it指的是周日烤肉这个老传统。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第三段And Sunday was once a day when people could easily go to the kitchen to cook. Nowadays, people are often out shopping or at the cinema until it’s far too late to start thinking about heating the oven (烤箱) up.然而，英国《电讯报》最近的一篇文章警告说，不要被我们紧张的日程搞得不知所措：“让这一古老的优良传统消失将是一种遗憾。”作者也深有感触，由此判断出对于这项传统的逐渐消失，作者深表遗憾。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段中的“But now the traditional Sunday roast seems to have been left back in the old days. According to the Daily Mail, just one in 50 British families sits down to this weekly meal together.”及全文内容可知，传统的英国每周一次的家庭周日烤肉活动已经成为过去时。现在，只有50分之一的英国家庭仍然保持这个传统。下文具体介绍了导致这种现象的原因。所以B选项“周日烤肉快绝迹了”适合做该文标题。故选B。
D
As aging population gets bigger and dementia(老年痴呆症) more common, more families are struggling with a complex question: How do you support a loved one with dementia, especially when you have a full-time job and several kids?
Reg Urbanowski may have an answer to this pressing issue-robots.
He and his team managed to develop a new type of robots named TP robots. Looking like stand-up vacuum cleaners(真空吸尘器) attached to an iPad, they can be activated remotely via a smartphone and guided remotely by a controller app similar to the way a mouse is used on a desktop computer. All possess audio and visual communication capabilities, allowing the operator to be “in the room” to interact with Mom or Dad.
He believes that caregivers and family members can use a TP robot to “look in” on people with mild dementia. He says, “TP robots provide an effective solution for reducing caregivers’ burden, especially for those who have career or other out-of-home activities.”
Urbanowski and his team have carried out a study that involves providing TP robots for 15 Toronto families. These robots are programmed to provide reminders of necessary daily routine like turning off the gas, taking medicine and having dinner. They will also help ensure patients are getting the exercise they need to maintain their health and well-being.
Erin Crawford, Program Director with the Alzheimer Society of Manitoba, says she has faith that TP robots will prove beneficial, particularly when it comes to reminding people with dementia to do certain things at certain times. “It means that family members that can’t be there, for whatever reason, know that those things are still happening, ”she says.
12. What can we infer about TP robots from Paragraph 3?
A. It’s easy to operate.
B. It can clean the room.
C. It’s convenient to carry.
D. It can be used on a computer.
13. How will TP robots help those with dementia?
A. By having dinner with them.
B By turning off the gas for them.
C. By doing activities with them.
D. By reminding them to take pills.
14. What’s Erin Crawford’s attitude to the future of TP robots?
A. Optimistic.
B. Pessimistic.
C. Carefree.
D. Doubtful.
15. What is the main’ idea of the text?
A. TP robots provide a new cure for dementia.
B. TP robots help to take care of dementia patients.
C. Caregivers of dementia will be replaced by TP robots.
D. Urbanowski and his team are developing a new robot.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Reg Urbanowski和他的团队发明了一种新型机器人，这种机器人可以照顾患有老年痴呆的人，帮助人们解决无法陪在病人身边的问题。同时这些机器人也可以提醒病人做必要的日常工作。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Looking like stand-up vacuum cleaners attached to an iPad, they can be activated remotely via a smartphone and guided remotely by a controller app similar to the way a mouse is used on a desktop computer. All possess audio and visual communication capabilities, allowing the operator to be “in the room” to interact with Mom or Dad. (看起来像是在连接iPad上的立式真空吸尘器，它们可以通过智能手机远程启动，并由一个类似于台式电脑鼠标使用的控制器应用程序来远程引导。所有设备都具有音频和视频通信能力，允许操作者“在房间里”与爸爸妈妈互动)”可知，这个机器人可以通过手机启动，通过软件操作，具有音频和视频通信能力，所以可以推断出机器人很容易操作，与选项A“It’s easy to operate. (它很容易操作)”符合。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“These robots are programmed to provide reminders of necessary daily routine like turning off the gas, taking medicine and having dinner. (这些机器人被编程来提供必要的日常生活提醒，比如关闭煤气，吃药和吃饭)”可知，TP机器人能提醒痴呆症患者吃药，与选项D“By reminding them to take pills.(提醒他们吃药)”符合。故选D。
【14题详解】
观点态度题。根据最后一段“Erin Crawford, Program Director with the Alzheimer Society of Manitoba, says she has faith that TP robots will prove beneficial, particularly when it comes to reminding people with dementia to do certain things at certain times. (马尼托巴州阿尔茨海默症协会的项目主管Erin Crawford说，她相信TP机器人将被证明是有好处的，特别是在提醒痴呆症患者在某些时候做某些事情方面)”可知，Erin Crawford相信TP机器人将被证明是有好处的，可以看出她对TP机器人的未来发展前景是持积极乐观的态度的，与选项A“Optimistic.(乐观的)”符合。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“As aging population gets bigger and dementia(老年痴呆症) more common, more families are struggling with a complex question: How do you support a love done with dementia, especially when you have a full-time job and several kids?(随着老龄化人口的增加和痴呆症的日益普遍，越来越多的家庭正在为一个复杂的问题挣扎：你如何照顾一个患有痴呆症的家人，尤其是当你有一份全职和几个孩子的时候？)”可知，第一段提出问题，根据第二段“Reg Urbanowski may have an answer to this pressing issue—robots. (Reg Urbanowski也许能回答这个紧迫的问题：机器人)”可知，第二段提出机器人能解决这个问题，综合全文可知，文章主要介绍了Reg Urbanowski和他的团队发明了一种新型机器人，这种机器人可以照顾患有老年痴呆的人，帮助人们解决无法陪在病人身边的问题。同时这些机器人也可以提醒病人做必要的日常工作。与选项B“TP robots help to take care of dementia patients.(TP机器人帮助照顾痴呆病人)”符合。故选B。
第二节(共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分)
根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Time and money are life's most valuable resources. One of the great laws of economics is that time equals money. The phrase “time is money“ is usually credited to Benjamin Franklin, who used it in an essay, Advice to a Young Tradesman, 1748.___16___ He encouraged people to treat time like money. However, most people think about time and money in vastly different ways.
___17___ Poor or rich, we all have 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Thus, each of us faces the choice of how to spend our time. In a world of scarcity, choosing one thing means not being able to do something else.
The value of time varies from person to person. Time is relatively scarce for people with higher incomes, partly because their time is more valuable. So, to have lots of time, rich people hire other people to do their household chores. ___18___
Time cannot be stored. One of the reasons we give little thought about how we use our limited resources is that we cannot save time. ___19___ You can’t bottle time and exchange it for an object or event. However, when people are made aware of their mortality they wonder if they did make the most of their lives.
In sum, time is anything but free. As a non-renewable resource, time is quite expensive. ___20___ Do we want to spend these precious moments on social media or spend that time learning something new? Skills and knowledge take time, so the more time you spend on them, the more you improve.
A Time is our scarcest resource.
B. It means time is a valuable resource.
C. However, it cannot be bought at any price.
D. Time moves on whether we choose to spend it or not
E. Actually, time and money are greatly different from each other.
F. However, a non-working person may spend more time on household chores.
G. Knowing that time is limited encourages us to ask how we are using our time.
【答案】16. B 17. A 18. F 19. D 20. G
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要通过介绍时间的一些特性，告诉我们时间的宝贵，因而要把时间花在可以提升自我的事情上。
【16题详解】
根据上文“The phrase “time is money“ is usually credited to Benjamin Franklin, who used it in an essay, Advice to a Young Tradesman, 1748.(“时间就是金钱”这个短语通常被归功于本杰明·富兰克林，他在一篇文章《给一个年轻商人的建议》(1748年)中使用了它)”以及后文“He encouraged people to treat time like money. (他鼓励人们视时间如金钱)”可知，上文提到了“时间就是金钱”这句话的出处，后文则提到了作者想要表达的意识，可知本句承接上文继续说明“时间就是金钱”这句话的含义。故B选项“意思是时间是一种宝贵的资源”符合语境，故选B。
【17题详解】
根据后文“Poor or rich, we all have 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Thus, each of us faces the choice of how to spend our time. In a world of scarcity, choosing one thing means not being able to do something else.(无论贫富，我们都是一天24小时，一周7天。 因此，我们每个人都面临着如何度过时间的选择。在一个资源稀缺的世界里，选择一件事就意味着无法做另一件事)”可知，后文本段强调时间的稀缺，A选项中scarcest对应后文中scarcity。故A选项“时间是我们最稀缺的资源”符合语境，故选A。
【18题详解】
根据上文“The value of time varies from person to person. Time is relatively scarce for people with higher incomes, partly because their time is more valuable. So, to have lots of time, rich people hire other people to do their household chores. (时间的价值因人而异。对于收入较高的人来说，时间相对稀缺，部分原因是他们的时间更有价值。所以，为了有更多的时间，富人会雇人帮他们做家务)”可知，上文提到富人会雇别人来做家务，且本段强调了时间的价值因人而异，可知此处与上一句形成对比关系，F选项中household chores对应上文中household chores。故F选项“然而，一个不工作的人可能花更多的时间在家务上”符合语境，故选F。
【19题详解】
根据上文“Time cannot be stored. One of the reasons we give little thought about how we use our limited resources is that we cannot save time.(时间不能被储存。我们很少考虑如何使用我们有限的资源的原因之一是我们不能节省时间)”以及后文“You can’t bottle time and exchange it for an object or event.(你不能把时间装在瓶子里，用它来交换一个物体或事件)”可知，上文提到时间无法节约，也不能储存和交换，即无论我们选择花还是不花，时间都在流逝。故D选项“无论我们选择花还是不花，时间都在流逝”符合语境，故选D。
【20题详解】
根据上文“As a non-renewable resource, time is quite expensive.(作为一种不可再生资源，时间是非常昂贵的)”以及后文“Do we want to spend these precious moments on social media or spend that time learning something new?(我们是想把这些宝贵的时刻花在社交媒体上，还是花在学习新东西上面？)”可知，本句与后文并列，都是在用设问句对如何使用时间进行提问。故G选项“知道时间是有限的鼓励我们去问问我们是如何利用时间的”符合语境，故选G。

43. with 44. crowded
45. which 46. that
47. the 48. touching
49. simply 50. to notice
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过自身经历阐述我们都被教导要追求更高的目标，然后我们被无尽的梦想埋葬，这让我们没有时间去注意我们周围的小而美丽的东西。
【41题详解】
考查形容词。句意：Shiv kaka，我母亲的一个远房叔叔，来自一个小村庄，要来看我们。分析句子可知，此处需形容词修饰名词作定语。distant作形容词译为“远方的，遥远的”。根据句意，此处应表示“一个远房的叔叔”。故填distant。
【42题详解】
考查时态语态。句意：但令人惊讶的是，我一看到他就被他的单纯所吸引。分析句意，主语“I”和提示词“draw”之间表示被动关系。浏览全文，文章的整体时态为一般过去时。此处需用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was drawn。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意：晚饭时，我非常兴奋地听他讲话。分析题意，此处应表示伴随，with great excitement译为“带着兴奋的心情”。故填with。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意：他乘坐一辆拥挤的火车来见我们，这显然是一次漫长而又累人的旅行。分析题意，此处需形容词修饰名词“train ”。crowded作为形容词时译为“拥挤的”，符合题意。故填crowded。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：他乘坐一辆拥挤的火车来见我们，这显然是一次漫长而又累人的旅行。分析题意，非限制性定语从句部分缺“主语”，关系词用关系代词。先行词指代前文主句的内容,从句中作主语，用关系代词which。故填which。
【46题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意：他告诉我们，他的女儿结婚了，他的两个儿子已经建立了自己的事业。分析题意，并列连词and后的宾语从句不缺成分且句意完整。在并列的宾语从句中，第二个that不可省略。故填that。
【47题详解】
考查冠词。句意：然而，他为自己经济独立的事实感到自豪。分析题意，fact作为名词译为“事实，真相”，为可数名词。因fact后被从句修饰，故此处应表示特指。故填the。
【48题详解】
考查形容词。句意：但最感人的还是他的那句话:“简单地生活，珍惜你所拥有的。”分析题意，the most后接形容词的最高级。根据句意，此处表示作者被他的话感动。修饰物，其形容词常以-ing结尾，touching“令人感动的”。故填touching。
【49题详解】
考查副词。句意：但最感人的还是他的那句话:“简单地生活，珍惜你所拥有的。”分析题意，此处需用副词的形式来修饰动词作状语。故填simply。
【50题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：我们都被教导要追求更高的目标，然后我们被无尽的梦想埋葬，这让我们没有时间去注意我们周围的小而美丽的东西。分析句子可知，which引导的定语从句部分已有动词“leaves”，故此处的notice需用非谓语动词作定语，修饰time用不定式作后置定语。故填to notice。

He picked up the notes, went towards the old lady, and asked if she had lost some money or not. The old lady checked her pocket. and realized it was his money. She praised both of us after learn about the whole process.
【答案】1.在way后加to
2.the→a
3.want→wanted
4.therefore→however
5.embarrassing→embarrassed
6.将been去掉
7.notes→note
8.if→whether
9.his→her
10.learn→learning
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述作者和同学上学途中，发现一位老太太50元钞票掉了，作者和同学将钞票捡起，归还给老太太，得到老太太表扬的故事。
【详解】1.考查介词。句意：上星期五我在我去学校的路上经历了一件令人兴奋的事情。on one’s way to some place“在某人去……的路上”，是固定短语，故在way后加to。
2.考查冠词。句意：我看到一位老太太口袋里的50元钞票掉了下来，我想要提醒她。表示泛指概念，用不定冠词，此处泛指“一张50元的钞票”，50-yuan是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以此处需用不定冠词a。故将the改为a。
3.考查时态。句意同上。由时间状语last Friday可知，叙述过去所发生的事情，用一般过去时，故将want改为wanted。
4.考查副词。句意：但是，老太太似乎不明白我在说什么，这使我很尴尬。根据句意可知，此处表示转折关系，而非因果关系，故将therefore改为however。
5.考查形容词。句意同上。表示人的感受，用以ed结尾的形容词，此处表示“我很尴尬”，故用embarrassed作宾语补足语，故将embarrassing改为embarrassed。
6.考查语态。句意：我的朋友王强看到了刚刚所发生的事情。happen表示“发生”，为不及物动词，无被动式，此处应用主动语态，故将been去掉。
7.考查名词。句意：他拿起那张钞票，走向老太太，问她是否丢了钱。note为可数名词，意为“钞票”，表示单数概念，指那张50元的钞票，用单数形式，故将notes改为note。
8.考查连接词。句意：他拿起那张钞票，走向老太太，问她是否丢了钱。whether表示“是否”与or not连用，if不能用与or not连用，故将if改为whether。
9.考查代词。句意：老太太检查了一下口袋，发现是她的钱。根据句意可知，此处表示“她的”，即老太太的钱。故将his改为her。
10.考查动名词。句意：在了解了整个过程后，她表扬了我们俩。介词after后用动名词，作宾语，故将learn改为learning。

【答案】Dear Jim,
Nice to hear from you! In your letter, you asked me about my life. With the final examination drawing near, I'm trying my best to prepare for it. Exercises and exams have taken up most of my time. I've never been busier and can only find time to listen to music on the way home.
As you can tell, the process is tough and I'm tired, but along the way, I have managed to do what I thought impossible. Although there is still a lot for me to improve on, I do have confidence in myself.
I hope with so much effort, I will get admitted to my dream university. I'm also expecting the coming summer holiday, for I will surely have plenty of time to enjoy myself! What's your plan after high school? Hope to hear from you soon.
Yours,
Li Hua
