When his daughter Morgan was growing up, Gordon Hartman was heartbroken after watching her on the playground. Other children refused to play with her, mostly because her disabilities meant she couldn’t access the places where they were playing. The family tried other places but were never satisfied.
“What we found was there was no place that was an easily-accessible, fully inclusive park,” Gordon said. So he went home and sold his construction business, bought a large piece of land, and went to work building an entire amusement park for disabled children.
All kids need playtime, and Morgan was no different. The park—named Morgan’s Wonderland—finally offered Morgan that opportunity. What the Hartmans discovered is that kids without disabilities enjoy the park just as much, and they interact a lot more with everyone when all are included. In fact, three quarters of the park’s visitors are not disabled. And that makes it all the more fun.
Watching the kids play together without barriers makes you realize that we are all the same, and having fun is for everybody. But it doesn’t end there. One-third of the staff also has special needs. Seeing the way they interact also puts a smile on your face. They take their jobs seriously, and they make sure everybody is having fun. .
“It feels fantastic because we get to see people who are not given the opportunity to experience the types of rides we have, get on a carousel, get on a train easily, and go fishing,” says Gordon. The park has been visited by people with special needs from over 67 countries. “When we opened this, we didn’t know if it was going to work,” says Gordon. “All we wanted to do was bring people together and play.”
Just look at the smiles at Morgan’s Wonderland, and you’ll see how much good it does.

A．Every Kid Deserves to Have Fun B．We Should Respect Each Other
C．A Playground Is Enough for All D．A Father Has Saved His Daughter

Kids have always loved skimming stones across water. And everyone knows the thinner and flatter the stone the better, right?
Not necessarily, according to English scientists who have found a fatter, curvier(弯曲的) rock is key to getting good bounce. Bristol University mathematician Ryan Palmer found that while thin, flat stones still provided the best chance of a maximum number of skips, fatter, curvier stones offered something “that’s completely different, but just as spectacular: huge jumps out of the water.
The scientists had initially been looking into the more serious subject of ice on aircraft, analyzing how ice crystals(晶体) bounced off a layer of liquid formed on a plane’s wings. It turned out this had the “same sort of interactions that you get with you or 1 standing at the comer of a lake trying to skim a stone across it”, said Professor Palmer, the study ‘s lead author.
He said the study found a heavier rock gave a super response that produced an almighty jump. When a stone hit the water, horizontal speed turned into upward speed, so it made sense that a heavy rock would put more force into that action. The curviness was also key, because it allowed a heavier stone to jump up off the water.
For those looking to try their arms at big skips, Prof Palmer said the technique remained the same: your throw should be as parallel(平行的) as possible to the top of the water, before you lean back and let the rock fly. While Prof Palmer said he was no expert stone skimmer, he always had a throw when the opportunity arose. “Especially if it looks more like a potato, I’ll have a go,” he said. But he said a potato-shaped stone was probably a little too heavy and round to get the maximum bounce.
8．What kind of stones do people usually choose when skimming them across water?
A．Fatter and curvier. B．Thinner and flatter. C．Flatter and heavier. D．Rounder and curvier.
9．What is the probable meaning of the underlined word “almighty” in Paragraph 4?
A．Playful. B．Skillful. C．Colorful. D．Powerful.
10．What do we know about skimming stones from Paragraph 5?
A．It is played only by kids. B．It needs a certain technique.
C．It offers all kinds of opportunities. D．It is played the best using potatoes.
11．What is mainly talked about in this text?
A．The key to selecting best skimming stones.
B．The fun skimming stones brings to children.
C．A simple game suitable for kids and grownups.
D．A study on the water layer on a plane’s wings.

Scientists have learned more about the inner workings of the Earth by studying the way waves from earthquakes travel through the planet’s center. The results suggest that the Earth’s inner core may be starting to spin more slowly than the Earth.
The Earth’s core has two parts: the outer core and the inner core. Both of these are made mainly of the metals iron and nickel. The outer core is liquid. But the inner core is a solid ball held in this liquid almost like the yolk(蛋黄) in an egg.
Scientists suspected for a long time that the inner core might be spinning slightly differently from the way the Earth spins.
In the 1990s, two scientists, Paul Richards and Xiaodong Song, studied the inner core by looking at the waves from earthquakes that travel through the center of the Earth. They focused on groups and pairs of waves from earthquakes that naturally repeat. If the inner core was spinning exactly with the Earth, each wave of the pair should have taken the same time to pass through the Earth. Instead, some moved faster than others. This was because they were hitting different parts of the inner core as it spun. Their studies revealed that the inner core was spinning in the same direction as the Earth, but slightly faster.
Now Dr. Song and Yi Yang—another scientist who studies the Earth—say they’ve used the same method to learn that the Earth’s inner core may be starting to spin slower than the Earth. The researchers studied earthquake wave pairs from Alaska, going all the way back to 1964. They noticed that the inner core’s spin also seemed to change speed in the early 1970s. The scientists say that the inner core may have a pattern of speeding up and slowing down every 70 years or so.
Not everyone agrees. Many scientists who study the Earth say more information needed to figure out what is really going on.
12．Why is an egg mentioned in the second paragraph?
A．To explain how the Earth’s core moves.
B．To show the importance of the inner core.
C．To illustrate the composition of the outer core.
D．To help picture the structure of the Earth’s core
13．What did the scientists discover about the inner core in the 1990s?
A．It sent out earthquake waves. B．It changed speed repeatedly.
C．It moved exactly with the Earth. D．It moved a little faster than the Earth. .
14．What does the author say about the study result?
A．It is accurate and reliable. B．It excites the scientists.
C．It needs further confirmation. D．It has caused a heated discussion. .
15．What is the text?
A．A science report. B．A sci-fi story. C．A diary entry. D．A brochure.

六、读后续写
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。
For the most part, Hank, a two-year-old cat, is a homebody- and for good reason. But on November 6th, Bushong, his owner, spotted Hank resting on a branch near the top of a neighbor’s tree.
Bushong believed Hank got frightened by some dogs. The more scared he got, the higher he climbed. “Cats have an amazing ability to climb up trees, but they aren’t that good at climbing down,” said Dan D’Eramo, director of field services for the Humane Rescue Alliance (HRA).
Bushong then asked the HRA to help, but it was no easy task. HRA called the fire department, but it refused to help because of safety concerns. Then Bushong called a construction company to ask about renting scaffolding(脚手架) but was told she would have to book the equipment 48 days in advance. Next she reached out to a local tree company, Casey Trees. But the crew said it wasn’t safe for a person to go up into the tree. Bushong became very sad.
Then neighbors came to help. Ed Baptiste, whose tree Hank had climbed, let Bushong sit in his backyard and called to Hank. Another neighbor donated a can of fish, hoping it might attract the cat to come down. Nearby dog owners took their pets on walks instead of letting them out in their yards to avoid further frightening Hank. Another neighbor suggested Bushong call a local business, which had a tall ladder. Unfortunately, their 42-foot ladder proved too short.
By day five, nothing had worked. That’s w hen another neighbor suggested creating a pulley(滑轮) system by throwing a sandbag attached to the rope to a branch higher than Hank. It will form a pulley system as the sandbag hangs down by gravity. Then raise a basket with some of the owners’ personal items. The cat may be attracted by the familiar scents and climb into the basket.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Bushong decided to have a try.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Carefully, they lowered Hank down.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了戈登为残疾的女儿建造游乐场的故事。
4．细节理解题。根据第一段“When his daughter Morgan was growing up, Gordon Hartman was heartbroken after watching her on the playground. Other children refused to play with her, mostly because her disabilities meant she couldn’t access the places where they were playing. (当他的女儿摩根长大后，戈登·哈特曼在操场上看着她伤心欲绝。其他孩子拒绝和她一起玩，主要是因为她的残疾意味着她无法进入他们玩耍的地方。)”可知，戈登难过是因为女儿无法进入操场和孩子们一起玩耍。故选D。
5．细节理解题。根据第三段“What the Hartmans discovered is that kids without disabilities enjoy the park just as much, and they interact a lot more with everyone when all are included. In fact, three quarters of the park’s visitors are not disabled. And that makes it all the more fun. (哈特曼夫妇发现，没有残疾的孩子同样喜欢公园，当所有人都包括在内时，他们与每个人的互动更多。事实上，该公园四分之三的游客不是残疾人。这就更有趣了。)”可知，每个孩子都能在这个游乐场玩得开心。故选C。
6．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段““When we opened this, we didn’t know if it was going to work,” says Gordon. (“当我们开这个游乐场的时候，我们不知道它是否会起作用，”戈登说。)”可推断，戈登一开始不确定他的游乐场是否会起作用。故选B。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要分析了选择最佳打水漂石子的关键。
8．细节理解题。根据首段中的“Kids have always loved skimming stones across water. And everyone knows the thinner and flatter the stone the better, right?(孩子们总是喜欢把石头划过水面。大家都知道石头越薄越平越好，对吧？)”可知，通常人们选择石子打水漂时，选择又薄又平的石子。故选B项。
9．词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“When a stone hit the water, horizontal speed turned into upward speed, so it made sense that a heavy rock would put more force into that action.(当石头碰到水面时，水平速度会变成向上的速度，因此沉重的石头会为该动作施加更大的作用力是有道理的。)”可知，石头接触水面的时候，沉重的石头会为该动作施加更大的作用力，结合划线单词所在句“He said the study found a heavier rock gave a super response that produced an almighty jump.(他说，研究发现一块较重的石头给出了超级反应，产生了almighty跳。)”可知，研究发现，较重的石子会产生almighty的弹跳的回应，由此可猜测，该单词的意思是与“put more force into that action”意思相近，故该单词的意思为“强有力的”。故选D项。
10．细节理解题。根据第五段中的“For those looking to try their arms at big skips, Prof Palmer said the technique remained the same: your throw should be as parallel(平行的) as possible to the top of the water, before you lean back and let the rock fly.(对于那些想要尝试大跳跃的人来说，帕尔默教授说，技术保持不变：在你向后倾斜并让石头飞起来之前，你的投掷应该尽可能平行到水面。)”可知，Palmer认为，要想尝试大的跳跃的人来说，技能是不变的，也就是说，打水漂撇石子是需要一定技巧的。故选B项。
11．主旨大意题。根据首段中的“Kids have always loved skimming stones across water. And everyone knows the thinner and flatter the stone the better, right? (孩子们总是喜欢把石头划过水面。大家都知道石头越薄越平越好，对吧？”和第二段中的“Not necessarily, according to English scientists who have found a fatter, curvier(弯曲的) rock is key to getting good bounce.(英国科学家发现，厚的、曲线优美的石头是获得良好弹跳效果的关键。)”可知，本文的研究发现，打水漂的石子选择上，不一定选那些又薄又平的，那些厚的弯曲的石子可能是获得良好弹跳的关键，并在下文对此进行分析，由此可知，本文主要是分析的打水漂时挑选石子的关键。故选A项。
12．D 13．D 14．C 15．A

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项研究发现，地球内核的自转速度可能开始比地球慢，但这一发现并非所有人认可，仍需要进一步弄清到底发生了什么。

But the inner core is a solid ball held in this liquid …(地核有两部分：外核和内核。这两种金属主要由铁和镍构成。外核是液态的。但内核是一个被液体包裹的固体球……)”可知，本段主要介绍的是地球内核的构造，与鸡蛋的构造有相似之处，所以，此处提到鸡蛋是以此来说明地球内核构造。故选D项。
13．细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“In the 1990s, two scientists, Paul Richards and Xiaodong Song, studied the inner core by looking at the waves from earthquakes that travel through the center of the Earth.(上世纪90年代，保罗·查兹（Paul Richards）和宋晓东（Xiaodong Song）两位科学家通过观察穿过地球中心的地震波来研究地核。)”和“Their studies revealed that the inner core was spinning in the same direction as the Earth, but slightly faster.(他们的研究表明，内核的旋转方向与地球相同，但速度略快。)”可知，20世纪90年代对地球内核的研究发现，地球内核的旋转方向与地球相同，但速度略快。故选D项。
14．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Not everyone agrees. Many scientists who study the Earth say more information needed to figure out what is really going on.(并非所有人都同意。许多研究地球的科学家表示，需要更多的信息来弄清楚到底发生了什么。)”可知，研究结果并非所有人都认可，仍需要进一步弄清到底发生了什么，由此可知，这项研究需要进一步证实。故选C项。
15．推理判断题。根据首段中的“Scientists have learned more about the inner workings of the Earth by studying the way waves from earthquakes travel through the planet’s center. The results suggest that the Earth’s inner core may be starting to spin more slowly than the Earth.(通过研究地震波穿过地球中心的方式，科学家们对地球的内部运作有了更多的了解。结果表明，地球内核的自转速度可能开始比地球慢。)”可知，本文讲述的是科学研究发现，地球内核可能开始比地球旋转的更慢，下文对此研究进行分析，由此可知，本文是一篇科学研究报告。故选A项。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国的传统节日——腊八节，介绍了腊八节的起源以及腊八节的三大习俗。
36．考查序数词。句意：农历的第十二个月在中国被称为腊月，所以这个农历月的第八天是腊月初八，或腊八。根据下文“la yue chu ba, or laba.”可推测，这是腊月的第八天，因此用序数词。故填eighth。
37．考查固定搭配。句意：这一天也被称为腊八节。考短语：be known as，意为“被称作……”。故填as。
38．考查连词。句意：腊八节的三大习俗是祭祖、吃腊八粥和做腊八蒜。空后的“making Laba garlic.”和空前的“ancestor worship, eating Laba rice porridge”为并列关系。故填and。
39．考查比较级。句意：在年底，劳动人民比平时有更多的空闲时间来准备祭祀祖先。根据下文的“than usual”可知，空处为比较级。故填more。

41．考查非谓语动词。句意：有人说，这种由红豆制成的粥可以驱除孩子们的邪恶。这里为非谓语动词担当后置定语，修饰“the porridge”，和“the porridge”之间为被动关系，用过去分词形式。故填made。
42．考查时态。句意：喝粥的习俗自古就有。这里为本句谓语动词，根据时间状语“since ancient times”可知，本句为现在完成时；主语为“the custom of eating porridge”，单数，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填has been。
43．考查副词。句意：最正宗的粥产于中国北方，尤其是北平，也就是今天的北京。担当句子的状语，用副词形式。故填especially。

Bushong decided to have a try. She filled a small basket with some of Hank’s favourite things. She called it Hank’s party pack. With the help of volunteers from Casey Trees, they used a special equipment and shot a sandbag attached to a rope high into the tree. They got lucky on the first try. The rope caught a branch directly above Hank. Pulling on the other end of the rope, they positioned Hank’s party pack just beneath him. To their great delight, he jumped in.
Carefully, they lowered Hank down. Once Hank reached the ground, Bushong took Hank into her arms, hugging him hard. Afterward, they went inside and ate, and Hank rested in his favourite chair. Hank’s adventure taught Bushong a lesson about neighbors helping neighbors. “I can’t believe so many people went out of their way to help me with this cat,” she said. “It made me feel good that I live in a neighborhood where people would do whatever they could to get him down. It gave me hope.”
