河南省焦作市县级重点中学2021-2022学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题
一、阅读选择
Look at the map of Spain and point at the center. You've located the country's capital and one of Europe's most beautiful cities: Madrid. This popular destination is considered a city of contrasts with its abundant historic sites, resting in the shadows of modern skyscrapers.
History
This city of over 3 million people is proud of Western Europe's largest royal palace, and some consider it to be Madrid's most beautiful building.
Inside the Royal Palace 2,800 rooms are decorated in glory with museum-quality furniture and artworks. Tourists can tour 50 of these large and splendid rooms.
Art
The Internationally respected Prado Museum is the largest and most impressive art gallery in Spain. Opened in 1819, it is filled with works of art that feature the world's most comprehensive collection of Spanish paintings.
Shopping
Madrid has some of Europe's best shopping, and potential buyers love to look through the stores looking for bargains. But for 500 years, shoppers have gathered to an extremely large outdoor flea market known as the Rastro where they find everything from antiques to CDs.
Entertainment
No trip to Madrid is complete without seeing a performance of Spain's famous art form, flamenco. Every day, flamenco performers sing, dance or play the guitar in small cafes and grand theaters alike.
Food
Madrid has a wide variety of restaurants, but because the Spanish typically eat late at about 9 or 10 p.m., it's difficult to find good dinner food earlier. If you get hungry before then, the best solution is to try a tapas bar where light snacks are served. Be sure to try the jamon, a kind of dry-cured ham: Spain is famous for it.
1．What do we know about the Royal Palace in Madrid?
A．It has 50 rooms for visit.
B．It can hold 2, 800 people.
C．It's been visited by 3 million people.
D．It is thought to be the largest in Europe.
2．What kind of market is “the Rastro”？
A．For discount.
B．For artworks.
C．To sell various goods.
D．To sell antiques and CDs.
3．What is a must when travelling in Madrid?
A．Having dinner earlier.
B．Enjoying flamenco.
C．Visiting Prado Museum.
D．Drinking in a tapas bar.
【答案】
1．A
2．C
3．B
【分析】
本文是一则广告，介绍了西班牙首都马德里的旅游特色，包括马德里的历史、艺术、购物、娱乐以及美术等信息。
1．细节理解题。根据第二部分最后一句Tourists can tour 50 of these large and splendid rooms可知马德里的the Royal Palace可以提供50个房间给游客参观。故A项正确。
2．推理判断题。根据第四部分最后一句But for 500 years, shoppers have gathered to an extremely large outdoor flea market known as the Rastro where they find everything from antiques to CDs.可知在the Rastro，游客们可以购买很多东西，从古董到CD等，由此判断出he Rastro应该是出售货物的商店。故C项正确。
3．细节理解题。根据文章第五部分第一句No trip to Madrid is complete without seeing a performance of Spain's famous art form, flamenco.可知当我们去马德里旅行的时候，如果不去观看flamenco，那么这次旅行就是不完整的。也就是说flamenco是马德里旅行必须要参观的。故B项正确。
Robert Spring, a 19th century forger (伪造者), was so good at his profession that he was able to make his living for 15 years by selling false signatures of famous Americans. Spring was born in England in 1838 and arrived in Philadelphia in 1858 to open a bookstore. At first he prospered(繁荣)by selling his small but genuine collection of early US autographs (亲笔签名). Discovering his ability at copying handwriting he began imitating the signatures of George Washington and Benjimin Franklin and writing them on the title pages of old books. To lessen the chance of detection (被发现), He sent his forgeries to England and Canada for sale. Forgers have a hard time selling products. A forger cannot approach a respectable buyer but must deal with people who don’t have much knowledge in the field. Forgers have many ways of making their works look real. For example, they buy old books and use the aged paper of the title page, and they can treat paper and ink with chemicals.
In Spring’s time, right after the Civil War, Britain was still fond of the southern states, so Spring invented a respectable young lady known as Miss Fanny Jackson, the only daughter of General “Stonewall” Jackson. For several years Miss Fanny’s financial problems forced her to sell a great number of letters and manuscripts (手稿) belonging to her famous father. Spring had to work very hard to satisfy the demand. However, all this activity did not prevent Spring from dying in poverty, leaving sharp-eyed experts the difficult task of separating his forgeries from the originals.
4．Robert Spring spent 15 years ________.
A．running a bookstore in Philadelphia B．as owners of old books
C．selling real signatures of famous Americans D．as a forger
5．Why did Spring sell his false autographs in England and Canada?
A．There was less chance that his forgeries would be discovered there.
B．The prices were much higher in England and Canada.
C．There was a greater demand there than in America.
D．Britan was Spring’s birthplace.
6．After the Civil War there was a great demand in Britain for ________
A．Civil War battle plans B．southern manuscripts and letters
C．the signatures of George Washington and Ben Franklin D．southern money
7．Which of the following about Miss Fanny Jackson is TRUE?
A．She was Robert Spring’s customer.
B．She was an imaginary person created by Spring.
C．She was a little-known girl who sold her father’s papers to make money.
D．She was the only daughter of General Stonewall Jackson.
【答案】
4．D
5．A
6．B
7．B
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了做了15年伪造者的Robert Spring的个人经历。文章介绍了他做伪造者的过程以及进行伪造的方式等。为了伪造手稿和信件出售给英国人，Spring甚至虚构了一个名为Fanny Jackson小姐的人，然而，所有这些活动都没有阻止Spring在贫困中死去，只留给了专家们一项艰巨的任务，那就是把他的赝品和真品区分开来。
4．
细节理解题。根据第一段中Robert Spring, a 19th century forger (伪造者), was so good at his profession that he was able to make his living for 15 years by selling false signatures of famous Americans.可知19世纪的伪造者Robert Spring非常擅长自己的行业，15年来他都靠出售美国名人的假签名为生。由此可知，Robert Spring当了15年的伪造者。故选D。
5．
细节理解题。根据第一段中To lessen the chance of detection (被发现), He sent his forgeries to England and Canada for sale.可知为了减少被发现的机会，他把赝品送到英国和加拿大出售。由此可知，Spring在英国和加拿大出售他的假签名，因为这样他的赝品被发现的可能性更小了。故选A。
6．
推理判断题。根据第二段中In Spring’s time, right after the Civil War, Britain was still fond of the southern states, so Spring invented a respectable young lady known as Miss Fanny Jackson, the only daughter of General “Stonewall” Jackson. For several years Miss Fanny’s financial problems forced her to sell a great number of letters and manuscripts (手稿) belonging to her famous father. Spring had to work very hard to satisfy the demand.可知内战刚结束的春天，英国人仍然喜欢南方各州，于是Spring就创造了一位受人尊敬的年轻女士，名叫Fanny Jackson小姐，她是“Stonewall”Jackson将军的独女。几年来，Fanny小姐的经济困难迫使她卖掉了大量属于她著名父亲的信件和手稿。Spring不得不非常努力地工作以满足需求。由此可推知，内战结束后，英国对南方的手稿和信件有很大的需求。故选B。

Living abroad to study can certainly be an interesting experience but is that alone a good enough reason for spending years far away from home? To make the experience truly worthwhile, there has to be a goal behind the decision to study abroad. This may be a wish to perfect language skills in a foreign language environment, or a clever move in your career development. You must also consider the costs, not just of living and studying abroad, but of applying. Most universities now charge application fees for international students.
If after considering these points you are sure that you want to apply to study abroad, your next step is to choose the right programme of studies. Research your choices and select carefully. You must do your homework well. Most universities have information online but you can also email and ask them to send you more details. You can find a lot of information on school ranking from education websites. But read carefully. Different universities emphasize different strengths. Don’t just think about the university’s reputation; look for the most suitable for your goals.
Next, you must deal with a large pile of paperwork. This involves filling in application forms, preparing your school records, and getting reference letters. Reading the instructions and requirements of the universities carefully is of great importance. Sadly, many fine applicants get kicked out in the first round, simply because they don’t follow the application procedure properly.
Money is another important consideration. Some scholarships are provided by governments, others by schools and colleges. This information, again, can be found on the Internet. If you find a scholarship that is suitable for you, follow the application procedure carefully; the earlier you apply, the better your chance of getting it.
8．Why does the author think studying abroad is truly worthwhile according to paragraph1?
A．It is a chance to develop your career. B．It is an interesting experience.
C．It is fun to travel around the world. D．All your friends are doing so.
9．What can a school ranking list tell us?
A．The names of all the professors.
B．How good the school is compared to others.
C．How much the courses cost.
D．Where the school is located.
10．What are the three basic steps when you apply?
A．Buy an airplane ticket, read the instructions and requirements, and study.
B．Write a reference letter, do paperwork, and study.
C．Prepare reference letters, prepare school records, and fill in the application form.
D．Prepare school records, do paperwork, and work hard.
11．What does the underlined phrase “get kicked out in the first round” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A．lose money in the first round B．get accepted in the next round
C．fail to get to the next round D．get kicked by a professor
【答案】
8．A

词义猜测题做题技巧。
关于词义猜测题做题技巧。词义猜测题是阅读理解中常见的一种题型，主要有对生词的词义猜测，熟词新义以及代词的猜测。其关键是根据上下文的逻辑关系，利用已掌握的信息，有必要的时候，借助生活或者文化常识，确定单词的词义。
比如小题4，根据第三段many fine applicants get kicked out in the first round，simply because they don't follow the application procedure properly（可悲的是，许多优秀的申请者被踢出第一轮，只是因为他们不遵循申请程序）可知，第一轮被踢出，意味着没办法进入下一轮，故选C。
For decades, China had wanted a Nobel Prize in science. Tu Youyou, a researcher who helped to develop a malaria（疟疾）medicine, finally won the country that honor.
In fact, Tu is not the only scientist in China who is catching the world’s attention. In 2016, the Nature journal published a list of the top 10 science stars in China. Gao Caixia and Cui Weicheng are two of them.
Gao Caixia has been devoted to genetic engineering for her whole career. She is known for using CRISPR-Cas9, the revolutionary gene-editing technique that is sweeping through biology labs around the world – in crops.
At first, Gao was unwilling to take up gene editing using CRISPR-Cas9 because her lab at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology in Beijing had already created mutations（变异）in 82 genes using an older type of technology. But after thinking carefully about it, she decided to give it a try.
After a year of hard work, her lab finally succeeded. Gao worked on genetic engineering in wheat, a crop that is famous for being difficult to work with. Now she is considered one of the best in the world at engineering wheat.
Cui Weicheng is the developer of China’s record-setting Jiaolong submersibl（e 潜水器）. He is now a professor at Westlake University. In 2012, Cui rode inside China’s Jiaolong submersible and reached a depth of more than 7,000 meters in the Pacific.
Thanks to Jiaolong and the 57-year-old developer, China is now one of only a few nations that can explore the deep sea. Jiaolong can travel deeper than any other manned research submersible currently in use, which shows China’s increasing ambition and leadership in deep-sea research.
12．Why is Tu Youyou mentioned at the beginning of the passage?
A．To show one of China’s long-held dreams.
B．To stress the importance of the Nobel Prize.
C．To praise Tu Youyou for her contributions.
D．To introduce more top Chinese scientists.
13．Why did Gao Caixia work on wheat?
A．Because she failed in her attempt to study other crops.
B．Because she was expert at wheat engineering.
C．Because wheat is hard to be genetically engineered.
D．Because wheat is the most widely planted crop in China.
14．What is Cui Weicheng’s biggest contribution to China?
A．He teaches about sea at a university.
B．He developed Jiaolong submersible.
C．He is devoted to genetic engineering.
D．He reached the bottom of the ocean.
15．What is the best title for the passage?
A．China’s Science Stars B．China’s Nobel Prize Dream
C．Gao Caixia－China’s Crop Engineer D．Cui Weicheng－China’s Deep Diver
【答案】
12．D
13．C

细节理解题。由文章的第二段 ”In fact, Tu is not the only scientist in China who is catching the world’s attention. In 2016, the Nature journal published a list of the top 10 science stars in China. Gao Caixia and Cui Weicheng are two of them.”可知后文主要讲的是中国科学家高彩霞和崔伟的主要贡献。故D项：介绍更多中国顶尖科学家，为正确答案。A项：展示中国长期以来的一个梦想；B项：强调诺贝尔奖的重要性；C项：表扬屠呦呦的贡献；均不合题意。故答案为D项。
13．
推理判断题。本题题干意为：为什么高彩霞致力于小麦的研究?由文章第三段“At first, Gao was unwilling to take up gene editing using CRISPR-Cas9 because her lab at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology in Beijing had already created mutations（变异）in 82 genes using an older type of technology. But after thinking carefully about it, she decided to give it a try.”可知起初,高不愿意采用基因编辑使用CRISPR-Cas9因为她所在实验室--中国科学院的研究所的遗传学和发育生物学已经在在82个基因中使用一个旧的技术创建突变(变异)。但仔细考虑之后，她决定试一试。故C项：因为小麦很难被基因改造，为正确选项。A项：因为她在研究其他作物的尝试中失败了。B项：因为她是小麦工程方面的专家。D项：因为小麦是中国种植最广泛的作物。均不合题意。故答案为C。
14．
细节理解题。本题题干为：崔伟成对中国最大的贡献是什么?根据文章根据第六段Cui Weicheng is the developer of China’s record-setting Jiaolong submersible（潜水器）以及最后一段崔伟成的发明对中国的影响来看，B项：他研制了蛟龙潜水器为正确答案，A项：他在一所大学教海洋。C项：格瓦拉致力于基因工程。D项：他到达了海底。均不合题意。故答案为B。
15．
考查主旨大意。本题题干意为：文章最好的标题是什么？本文讲述了中国高彩霞和崔伟两位科学家及其成就。故A项：中国的科学明星为正确答案； B项：中国的诺贝尔奖梦（主题扩大）；C项：高彩霞——中国的农作物工程师 （以偏概全）；D项：崔伟成——中国的深水潜水员（以偏概全）。故答案为A。

A 90-year-old has been awarded “Woman Of The Year” for 41．(be) Britain’s oldest full-time employee—still working 40 hours a week. Now Irene Astbury works from 9am to 5pm daily at the pet shop in Macclesfield, 42． she opened with her late husband Les. Her years of hard work have 43．(final) been acknowledged after a customer nominated(提名) her to be Cheshire’s Woman Of The Year.
Picking up her “Lifetime Achievement” award, proud Irene 44．(declare) she had no plans 45．(retire) from her 36-year-old business. Irene said, “I don’t see any reason to give up work. I love coming here and seeing my family and all the friends I 46．(make) over the years. I work not because I have to, 47． because I want to.”
Granddaughter Gayle Parks, 31—who works alongside her in the family business—said it remained unknown as to who nominated Irene for the award. She said, “We don’t have any idea who put grandma forward. When we got a call 48．(say) she was short-listed, we thought it was 49． joke. But then we got an official letter and we were blown away. We are so proud of her. It’s 50．(wonder).”
【答案】
41．being
42．which
43．finally
44．declared
45．to retire
46．have made
47．but
48．saying
49．a
50．wonderful
【分析】
本文为一篇记叙文。文章讲述了九十高龄的Irene作为英国最年长的全职员工，依然在宠物店做着朝九晚五的工作，没有退休的打算，她由此被评为“年度女士”。
41．考查非谓语动词。根据其前介词for可知，此处用动名词形式作宾语，故填being。
42．考查非限制性定语从句。分析句子结构可知，先行词为the pet shop，在非限制性定语从句中作opened一词的宾语，故用which。
43．考查副词用法。根据空格所处位置可知，此处应用副词形式作状语，修饰谓语动词have been acknowledged，意为“最终得到认可”，故填finally。
44．考查时态。根据上下文可知，该句主语为Irene，此处为谓语成分，根据后文had以及said可知，用一般过去时态，故填declared。
45．考查不定式作定语。此处用to do sth作后置定语，用来修饰前面的名词plan，表示“……的计划”，故填to retire。
46．考查动词时态。根据该定语从句中的时间状语“over the years”可知，此处用现在完成时态，句意：我喜欢到这里来看看我的家人和我这些年来交到的朋友们。故填have made。
47．考查并列连词。根据句意逻辑可知，此处为转折关系，句意：我工作不是因为我不得不做，而是因为我想做。此处用but与前文not呼应，构成“不是……而是……”之意，故填but。
48．考查非谓语动词。前面已经有谓语动词call，故此处用非谓语动词形式，根据say与其逻辑主语call是主动关系，故填saying。
49．考查冠词用法。句意：我们还以为这是一个玩笑。此处joke为泛指，故填a。
50．考查形容词作表语。根据句子结构可知，在系动词is之后用形容词形式作表语，故填wonderful。
五、短文改错

I'm worried that you've been addicted to share pictures in WeChat circle recently. You even share all sort of photos in your daily life. Of course, WeChat makes better to understand each other and makes our life more colorful, which is very convenient for us to communicate with. However, there exist some potential trouble if we overshare. One serious problem is leaking privacy, that may cause a lot of trouble. Besides, oversharing can make others uncomfortably, for they think you are showing off.
Thus, neither should we post our personal information, or should we blindly add strangers to a list of friends. It's much wise to set aside some time to accompany parents or do something more meaningful, such as reading books or taking exercise.
【答案】1.share→sharing
2.sort → sorts
3.在makes和better之间加上it
4.去掉communicate后面的with
5.exist→exists
6.that→which
7.uncomfortably→uncomfortable
8.or →nor
9.a→the
10.wise→wiser
【分析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了微信朋友圈过度分享可能存在的问题，以及对此提出的建议。
【详解】
第一处：考查非谓语动词。句意：我担心你最近沉迷于微信圈子里的分享图片。be addicted to doing sth.固定短语，“沉迷于做某事”，故share改为sharing。
第二处：考查名词。句意：你甚至在日常生活中分享各种照片。all sorts of各种各样的。故sort改为sorts。
第三处：考查代词。句意：当然，微信让我们更好的互相理解，让我们的生活更加丰富多彩，这对于我们交流是非常方便的。make后跟it作形式宾语指代后文不定式真正宾语，故在makes和better之间加上it。
第四处：考查及物动词。句意：当然，微信让我们更好的互相理解，让我们的生活更加丰富多彩，这对于我们交流是非常方便的。此处communicate后没有宾语，故不需要介词，因此去掉communicate后面的with。
第五处：考查主谓一致。句意：然而，如果我们过度分享，就会出现一些潜在的问题。本句主语为trouble单数名词，故谓语动词需要用单数形式，且为一般现在时，故exist改为exists。
第六处：考查定语从句。句意：一个严重的问题是泄露隐私，这可能会造成经济损失。本句为非限定性定语从句修饰上文整个句子，且从句中缺少主语，故用which，因此that改为which。
第七处：考查形容词。句意：此外，过度分享会让别人不舒服，因为他们认为你在炫耀。短语make sb.+形容词表示“使某人怎么样”，应用形容词作宾语补足语。故uncomfortably改为uncomfortable。
第八处：考查固定短语。句意：因此，我们既不应该发布我们的个人信息，也不应该盲目地将陌生人添加到朋友列表中。neither…nor…固定短语，“既不……也不……”，故or改为nor。
第九处：考查冠词。句意：因此，我们既不应该发布我们的个人信息，也不应该盲目地将陌生人添加到朋友列表中。此处特指自己的“朋友列表”故应用定冠词，故a改为the。
第十处：考查形容词比较级。句意：留出一些时间陪伴父母或做一些更有意义的事情是更明智的，比如读书或锻炼。根据句意以及上文much修饰形容词比较级wiser，表示“更明智”，故wise改为wiser。

一、阅读选择
Look at the map of Spain and point at the center. You've located the country's capital and one of Europe's most beautiful cities: Madrid. This popular destination is considered a city of contrasts with its abundant historic sites, resting in the shadows of modern skyscrapers.
History
This city of over 3 million people is proud of Western Europe's largest royal palace, and some consider it to be Madrid's most beautiful building.
Inside the Royal Palace 2,800 rooms are decorated in glory with museum-quality furniture and artworks. Tourists can tour 50 of these large and splendid rooms.
Art
The Internationally respected Prado Museum is the largest and most impressive art gallery in Spain. Opened in 1819, it is filled with works of art that feature the world's most comprehensive collection of Spanish paintings.
Shopping
Madrid has some of Europe's best shopping, and potential buyers love to look through the stores looking for bargains. But for 500 years, shoppers have gathered to an extremely large outdoor flea market known as the Rastro where they find everything from antiques to CDs.
Entertainment
No trip to Madrid is complete without seeing a performance of Spain's famous art form, flamenco. Every day, flamenco performers sing, dance or play the guitar in small cafes and grand theaters alike.
Food
Madrid has a wide variety of restaurants, but because the Spanish typically eat late at about 9 or 10 p.m., it's difficult to find good dinner food earlier. If you get hungry before then, the best solution is to try a tapas bar where light snacks are served. Be sure to try the jamon, a kind of dry-cured ham: Spain is famous for it.
1．What do we know about the Royal Palace in Madrid?
A．It has 50 rooms for visit.
B．It can hold 2, 800 people.
C．It's been visited by 3 million people.
D．It is thought to be the largest in Europe.
2．What kind of market is “the Rastro”？
A．For discount.
B．For artworks.
C．To sell various goods.
D．To sell antiques and CDs.
3．What is a must when travelling in Madrid?
A．Having dinner earlier.
B．Enjoying flamenco.
C．Visiting Prado Museum.
D．Drinking in a tapas bar.
【答案】
1．A
2．C
3．B
【分析】
本文是一则广告，介绍了西班牙首都马德里的旅游特色，包括马德里的历史、艺术、购物、娱乐以及美术等信息。
1．细节理解题。根据第二部分最后一句Tourists can tour 50 of these large and splendid rooms可知马德里的the Royal Palace可以提供50个房间给游客参观。故A项正确。
2．推理判断题。根据第四部分最后一句But for 500 years, shoppers have gathered to an extremely large outdoor flea market known as the Rastro where they find everything from antiques to CDs.可知在the Rastro，游客们可以购买很多东西，从古董到CD等，由此判断出he Rastro应该是出售货物的商店。故C项正确。
3．细节理解题。根据文章第五部分第一句No trip to Madrid is complete without seeing a performance of Spain's famous art form, flamenco.可知当我们去马德里旅行的时候，如果不去观看flamenco，那么这次旅行就是不完整的。也就是说flamenco是马德里旅行必须要参观的。故B项正确。
Robert Spring, a 19th century forger (伪造者), was so good at his profession that he was able to make his living for 15 years by selling false signatures of famous Americans. Spring was born in England in 1838 and arrived in Philadelphia in 1858 to open a bookstore. At first he prospered(繁荣)by selling his small but genuine collection of early US autographs (亲笔签名). Discovering his ability at copying handwriting he began imitating the signatures of George Washington and Benjimin Franklin and writing them on the title pages of old books. To lessen the chance of detection (被发现), He sent his forgeries to England and Canada for sale. Forgers have a hard time selling products. A forger cannot approach a respectable buyer but must deal with people who don’t have much knowledge in the field. Forgers have many ways of making their works look real. For example, they buy old books and use the aged paper of the title page, and they can treat paper and ink with chemicals.
In Spring’s time, right after the Civil War, Britain was still fond of the southern states, so Spring invented a respectable young lady known as Miss Fanny Jackson, the only daughter of General “Stonewall” Jackson. For several years Miss Fanny’s financial problems forced her to sell a great number of letters and manuscripts (手稿) belonging to her famous father. Spring had to work very hard to satisfy the demand. However, all this activity did not prevent Spring from dying in poverty, leaving sharp-eyed experts the difficult task of separating his forgeries from the originals.
4．Robert Spring spent 15 years ________.
A．running a bookstore in Philadelphia B．as owners of old books
C．selling real signatures of famous Americans D．as a forger
5．Why did Spring sell his false autographs in England and Canada?
A．There was less chance that his forgeries would be discovered there.
B．The prices were much higher in England and Canada.
C．There was a greater demand there than in America.
D．Britan was Spring’s birthplace.
6．After the Civil War there was a great demand in Britain for ________
A．Civil War battle plans B．southern manuscripts and letters
C．the signatures of George Washington and Ben Franklin D．southern money
7．Which of the following about Miss Fanny Jackson is TRUE?
A．She was Robert Spring’s customer.
B．She was an imaginary person created by Spring.
C．She was a little-known girl who sold her father’s papers to make money.
D．She was the only daughter of General Stonewall Jackson.
【答案】
4．D
5．A
6．B
7．B
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了做了15年伪造者的Robert Spring的个人经历。文章介绍了他做伪造者的过程以及进行伪造的方式等。为了伪造手稿和信件出售给英国人，Spring甚至虚构了一个名为Fanny Jackson小姐的人，然而，所有这些活动都没有阻止Spring在贫困中死去，只留给了专家们一项艰巨的任务，那就是把他的赝品和真品区分开来。
4．
细节理解题。根据第一段中Robert Spring, a 19th century forger (伪造者), was so good at his profession that he was able to make his living for 15 years by selling false signatures of famous Americans.可知19世纪的伪造者Robert Spring非常擅长自己的行业，15年来他都靠出售美国名人的假签名为生。由此可知，Robert Spring当了15年的伪造者。故选D。
5．
细节理解题。根据第一段中To lessen the chance of detection (被发现), He sent his forgeries to England and Canada for sale.可知为了减少被发现的机会，他把赝品送到英国和加拿大出售。由此可知，Spring在英国和加拿大出售他的假签名，因为这样他的赝品被发现的可能性更小了。故选A。
6．
推理判断题。根据第二段中In Spring’s time, right after the Civil War, Britain was still fond of the southern states, so Spring invented a respectable young lady known as Miss Fanny Jackson, the only daughter of General “Stonewall” Jackson. For several years Miss Fanny’s financial problems forced her to sell a great number of letters and manuscripts (手稿) belonging to her famous father. Spring had to work very hard to satisfy the demand.可知内战刚结束的春天，英国人仍然喜欢南方各州，于是Spring就创造了一位受人尊敬的年轻女士，名叫Fanny Jackson小姐，她是“Stonewall”Jackson将军的独女。几年来，Fanny小姐的经济困难迫使她卖掉了大量属于她著名父亲的信件和手稿。Spring不得不非常努力地工作以满足需求。由此可推知，内战结束后，英国对南方的手稿和信件有很大的需求。故选B。
7．

Living abroad to study can certainly be an interesting experience but is that alone a good enough reason for spending years far away from home? To make the experience truly worthwhile, there has to be a goal behind the decision to study abroad. This may be a wish to perfect language skills in a foreign language environment, or a clever move in your career development. You must also consider the costs, not just of living and studying abroad, but of applying. Most universities now charge application fees for international students.
If after considering these points you are sure that you want to apply to study abroad, your next step is to choose the right programme of studies. Research your choices and select carefully. You must do your homework well. Most universities have information online but you can also email and ask them to send you more details. You can find a lot of information on school ranking from education websites. But read carefully. Different universities emphasize different strengths. Don’t just think about the university’s reputation; look for the most suitable for your goals.
Next, you must deal with a large pile of paperwork. This involves filling in application forms, preparing your school records, and getting reference letters. Reading the instructions and requirements of the universities carefully is of great importance. Sadly, many fine applicants get kicked out in the first round, simply because they don’t follow the application procedure properly.
Money is another important consideration. Some scholarships are provided by governments, others by schools and colleges. This information, again, can be found on the Internet. If you find a scholarship that is suitable for you, follow the application procedure carefully; the earlier you apply, the better your chance of getting it.
8．Why does the author think studying abroad is truly worthwhile according to paragraph1?
A．It is a chance to develop your career. B．It is an interesting experience.
C．It is fun to travel around the world. D．All your friends are doing so.
9．What can a school ranking list tell us?
A．The names of all the professors.
B．How good the school is compared to others.
C．How much the courses cost.
D．Where the school is located.
10．What are the three basic steps when you apply?
A．Buy an airplane ticket, read the instructions and requirements, and study.
B．Write a reference letter, do paperwork, and study.
C．Prepare reference letters, prepare school records, and fill in the application form.
D．Prepare school records, do paperwork, and work hard.
11．What does the underlined phrase “get kicked out in the first round” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A．lose money in the first round B．get accepted in the next round
C．fail to get to the next round D．get kicked by a professor
【答案】
8．A

For decades, China had wanted a Nobel Prize in science. Tu Youyou, a researcher who helped to develop a malaria（疟疾）medicine, finally won the country that honor.
In fact, Tu is not the only scientist in China who is catching the world’s attention. In 2016, the Nature journal published a list of the top 10 science stars in China. Gao Caixia and Cui Weicheng are two of them.
Gao Caixia has been devoted to genetic engineering for her whole career. She is known for using CRISPR-Cas9, the revolutionary gene-editing technique that is sweeping through biology labs around the world – in crops.
At first, Gao was unwilling to take up gene editing using CRISPR-Cas9 because her lab at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology in Beijing had already created mutations（变异）in 82 genes using an older type of technology. But after thinking carefully about it, she decided to give it a try.
After a year of hard work, her lab finally succeeded. Gao worked on genetic engineering in wheat, a crop that is famous for being difficult to work with. Now she is considered one of the best in the world at engineering wheat.
Cui Weicheng is the developer of China’s record-setting Jiaolong submersibl（e 潜水器）. He is now a professor at Westlake University. In 2012, Cui rode inside China’s Jiaolong submersible and reached a depth of more than 7,000 meters in the Pacific.
Thanks to Jiaolong and the 57-year-old developer, China is now one of only a few nations that can explore the deep sea. Jiaolong can travel deeper than any other manned research submersible currently in use, which shows China’s increasing ambition and leadership in deep-sea research.
12．Why is Tu Youyou mentioned at the beginning of the passage?
A．To show one of China’s long-held dreams.
B．To stress the importance of the Nobel Prize.
C．To praise Tu Youyou for her contributions.
D．To introduce more top Chinese scientists.
13．Why did Gao Caixia work on wheat?
A．Because she failed in her attempt to study other crops.
B．Because she was expert at wheat engineering.
C．Because wheat is hard to be genetically engineered.
D．Because wheat is the most widely planted crop in China.
14．What is Cui Weicheng’s biggest contribution to China?
A．He teaches about sea at a university.
B．He developed Jiaolong submersible.
C．He is devoted to genetic engineering.
D．He reached the bottom of the ocean.
15．What is the best title for the passage?
A．China’s Science Stars B．China’s Nobel Prize Dream
C．Gao Caixia－China’s Crop Engineer D．Cui Weicheng－China’s Deep Diver
【答案】
12．D

细节理解题。由文章的第二段 ”In fact, Tu is not the only scientist in China who is catching the world’s attention. In 2016, the Nature journal published a list of the top 10 science stars in China. Gao Caixia and Cui Weicheng are two of them.”可知后文主要讲的是中国科学家高彩霞和崔伟的主要贡献。故D项：介绍更多中国顶尖科学家，为正确答案。A项：展示中国长期以来的一个梦想；B项：强调诺贝尔奖的重要性；C项：表扬屠呦呦的贡献；均不合题意。故答案为D项。
13．
推理判断题。本题题干意为：为什么高彩霞致力于小麦的研究?由文章第三段“At first, Gao was unwilling to take up gene editing using CRISPR-Cas9 because her lab at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology in Beijing had already created mutations（变异）in 82 genes using an older type of technology. But after thinking carefully about it, she decided to give it a try.”可知起初,高不愿意采用基因编辑使用CRISPR-Cas9因为她所在实验室--中国科学院的研究所的遗传学和发育生物学已经在在82个基因中使用一个旧的技术创建突变(变异)。但仔细考虑之后，她决定试一试。故C项：因为小麦很难被基因改造，为正确选项。A项：因为她在研究其他作物的尝试中失败了。B项：因为她是小麦工程方面的专家。D项：因为小麦是中国种植最广泛的作物。均不合题意。故答案为C。
14．
细节理解题。本题题干为：崔伟成对中国最大的贡献是什么?根据文章根据第六段Cui Weicheng is the developer of China’s record-setting Jiaolong submersible（潜水器）以及最后一段崔伟成的发明对中国的影响来看，B项：他研制了蛟龙潜水器为正确答案，A项：他在一所大学教海洋。C项：格瓦拉致力于基因工程。D项：他到达了海底。均不合题意。故答案为B。
15．
考查主旨大意。本题题干意为：文章最好的标题是什么？本文讲述了中国高彩霞和崔伟两位科学家及其成就。故A项：中国的科学明星为正确答案； B项：中国的诺贝尔奖梦（主题扩大）；C项：高彩霞——中国的农作物工程师 （以偏概全）；D项：崔伟成——中国的深水潜水员（以偏概全）。故答案为A。

Now Irene Astbury works from 9am to 5pm daily at the pet shop in Macclesfield, 42． she opened with her late husband Les. Her years of hard work have 43．(final) been acknowledged after a customer nominated(提名) her to be Cheshire’s Woman Of The Year.
Picking up her “Lifetime Achievement” award, proud Irene 44．(declare) she had no plans 45．(retire) from her 36-year-old business. Irene said, “I don’t see any reason to give up work. I love coming here and seeing my family and all the friends I 46．(make) over the years. I work not because I have to, 47． because I want to.”
Granddaughter Gayle Parks, 31—who works alongside her in the family business—said it remained unknown as to who nominated Irene for the award. She said, “We don’t have any idea who put grandma forward. When we got a call 48．(say) she was short-listed, we thought it was 49． joke. But then we got an official letter and we were blown away. We are so proud of her. It’s 50．(wonder).”
【答案】
41．being
42．which
43．finally
44．declared
45．to retire
46．have made
47．but
48．saying
49．a
50．wonderful
【分析】
本文为一篇记叙文。文章讲述了九十高龄的Irene作为英国最年长的全职员工，依然在宠物店做着朝九晚五的工作，没有退休的打算，她由此被评为“年度女士”。
41．考查非谓语动词。根据其前介词for可知，此处用动名词形式作宾语，故填being。
42．考查非限制性定语从句。分析句子结构可知，先行词为the pet shop，在非限制性定语从句中作opened一词的宾语，故用which。
43．考查副词用法。根据空格所处位置可知，此处应用副词形式作状语，修饰谓语动词have been acknowledged，意为“最终得到认可”，故填finally。
44．考查时态。根据上下文可知，该句主语为Irene，此处为谓语成分，根据后文had以及said可知，用一般过去时态，故填declared。
45．考查不定式作定语。此处用to do sth作后置定语，用来修饰前面的名词plan，表示“……的计划”，故填to retire。
46．考查动词时态。根据该定语从句中的时间状语“over the years”可知，此处用现在完成时态，句意：我喜欢到这里来看看我的家人和我这些年来交到的朋友们。故填have made。
47．考查并列连词。根据句意逻辑可知，此处为转折关系，句意：我工作不是因为我不得不做，而是因为我想做。此处用but与前文not呼应，构成“不是……而是……”之意，故填but。
48．考查非谓语动词。前面已经有谓语动词call，故此处用非谓语动词形式，根据say与其逻辑主语call是主动关系，故填saying。
49．考查冠词用法。句意：我们还以为这是一个玩笑。此处joke为泛指，故填a。
50．考查形容词作表语。根据句子结构可知，在系动词is之后用形容词形式作表语，故填wonderful。

I'm worried that you've been addicted to share pictures in WeChat circle recently. You even share all sort of photos in your daily life. Of course, WeChat makes better to understand each other and makes our life more colorful, which is very convenient for us to communicate with. However, there exist some potential trouble if we overshare. One serious problem is leaking privacy, that may cause a lot of trouble. Besides, oversharing can make others uncomfortably, for they think you are showing off.
Thus, neither should we post our personal information, or should we blindly add strangers to a list of friends. It's much wise to set aside some time to accompany parents or do something more meaningful, such as reading books or taking exercise.
【答案】1.share→sharing
2.sort → sorts
3.在makes和better之间加上it
4.去掉communicate后面的with
5.exist→exists
6.that→which
7.uncomfortably→uncomfortable
8.or →nor
9.a→the
10.wise→wiser
【分析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了微信朋友圈过度分享可能存在的问题，以及对此提出的建议。
【详解】
第一处：考查非谓语动词。句意：我担心你最近沉迷于微信圈子里的分享图片。be addicted to doing sth.固定短语，“沉迷于做某事”，故share改为sharing。
第二处：考查名词。句意：你甚至在日常生活中分享各种照片。all sorts of各种各样的。故sort改为sorts。
第三处：考查代词。句意：当然，微信让我们更好的互相理解，让我们的生活更加丰富多彩，这对于我们交流是非常方便的。make后跟it作形式宾语指代后文不定式真正宾语，故在makes和better之间加上it。
第四处：考查及物动词。句意：当然，微信让我们更好的互相理解，让我们的生活更加丰富多彩，这对于我们交流是非常方便的。此处communicate后没有宾语，故不需要介词，因此去掉communicate后面的with。
第五处：考查主谓一致。句意：然而，如果我们过度分享，就会出现一些潜在的问题。本句主语为trouble单数名词，故谓语动词需要用单数形式，且为一般现在时，故exist改为exists。
第六处：考查定语从句。句意：一个严重的问题是泄露隐私，这可能会造成经济损失。本句为非限定性定语从句修饰上文整个句子，且从句中缺少主语，故用which，因此that改为which。
第七处：考查形容词。句意：此外，过度分享会让别人不舒服，因为他们认为你在炫耀。短语make sb.+形容词表示“使某人怎么样”，应用形容词作宾语补足语。故uncomfortably改为uncomfortable。
第八处：考查固定短语。句意：因此，我们既不应该发布我们的个人信息，也不应该盲目地将陌生人添加到朋友列表中。neither…nor…固定短语，“既不……也不……”，故or改为nor。
第九处：考查冠词。句意：因此，我们既不应该发布我们的个人信息，也不应该盲目地将陌生人添加到朋友列表中。此处特指自己的“朋友列表”故应用定冠词，故a改为the。
第十处：考查形容词比较级。句意：留出一些时间陪伴父母或做一些更有意义的事情是更明智的，比如读书或锻炼。根据句意以及上文much修饰形容词比较级wiser，表示“更明智”，故wise改为wiser。
