A
Instagram is containing so many photos of food---now a pop-up diner in London is taking advantage of this new trend by letting people settle the bill for their meals simply by uploading photos of their dishes to social networks.
I always thought people's taking pictures of their food was kind of silly, but at this new pop-up restaurant in the UK, I'd probably do it too. “The Picture House” is the world's first pay-by-photo restaurant—you order, click a photo of the food, share on Instagram and eat for free!
The restaurant belongs to frozen food giant (巨人）Birds Eye, who came up with the idea to cash in on people’s addiction with photographing food and sharing the pictures online. They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals. So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range.
The pop-up diner was open in Soho, London for three days in May, and is now moving to other major UK cities. They serve two-course meals that customers don't have to pay for, if they photo and Instagram it.
The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye’s “Food for Life,” campaign, a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food. “Taking photos of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments—from the everyday to the special,” said marketing director Margaret Jobling.
The reaction to The Picture House has been great so far. And the pay-by-picture concept has proven to be an effective way. Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses. Last year, in a cafe in Germany customers pay by how much time they spend there, not by what they eat.
1. Instagram probably is_______________.
A. a restaurant free of charge B. a campaign of “Food for Life”
C. a new marketing project D. a program used to share photos
2. “The Picture House” encourages sharing photos of its food to_____________.
A. raise the price of frozen food B. attract more customers
C. create a new social media trend D. reward the regular customers
3. Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?
A. No Need to Pay. B. The Pop-up Diner.
C. Pay by Picture. D. Food for Life.
【答案】1. D 2. B 3. C
1. D
推理判断题。本文主要讲的是英国一家餐厅将餐厅经营与时下流行的照片分享软件相结合的事例，可知Instagram可能是一种分享照片的程序。故选D.
2. B
细节理解题。根据第三段So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range.可知，他想拓宽餐厅的业务范围，吸引更多的顾客。故选B。
3. C
标题判断题。英国一家餐厅将餐厅经营与时下流行的照片分享软件相结合的事例，人们只要上传照片就可以获得免单。所以最佳标题是C. Pay by Picture，故选C.
B
Every day born a decade from now will have its genetic code(基因编码)mapped at birth, the head of the world’s leading genome sequencing(基因图谱)company has predicted.
A complete DNA read – out for every newborn will be technically possible and affordable in less than five years, promising a revolution in healthcare, says Jay Flatley, the chief executive of Illumina. Only social and legal problems are likely to delay the age of “genome sequences,” or genetic profiles. By 2019 it will have become routine to map infants’ genes when they are born, Dr Flatly told The Times.
This will open a new approach to medicine, by which conditions such as high blood pressure and heart disease can be predicted and prevented and drugs used more safely and effectively.
A baby’s genome can be discovered at birth by a blood test. By examining a person’s genome, it is possible to identify raised risks of developing diseases such as cancers. Those at high risk can then be screened more regularly, or given drugs or dietary advice to lower their chances of becoming ill.
Personal genomes could also be used to ensure that patients get the medicine that is most likely to work for them and least likely to have side – effects.
The development, however, will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to individuals’ genetic records.
“Bad things can be done with the genome. It could predict something about someone – and you could possibly hand the information to their employer or their insurance company.” said Dr Flatley.
“People have to recognize that this horse is out of the barn, and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.
As the benefits become clearer, however, he believes that most people will want their genomes read and interpreted. The risk is nothing compared with the gain.
4. In the first two paragraphs, the author mainly wants to tell us about__________.
A. the significant progress in medicine
B. the promise of a leading company
C. the information of babies’ genes
D. the research of medical scientists
5. Which of the following is a problem caused by this approach?
A. The delaying in discovering DNA.
B. The risk of developing diseases at birth.
C. The side effects of medicine on patients.
D. The letting out of personal genetic information.
6. What does the underlined sentence “… this horse is out of the barn” mean?
A. Genetic mapping technique has been widely used.
B. people can’t stop genetic mapping technique advancing.
C. People are eager to improve genetic mapping technique.
D. Genetic mapping technique is too horrible to control.
7. What’s Dr Flatley’s attitude towards the technology?
A. Tolerant. B. Conservative. C. Positive. D. Doubtful.
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. B 7. C
【解析】本文介绍了一项医学上的重大进步，即DNA技术在医疗上的应用。
4. A
目的意图题。根据前两段告诉我们在不到五年的时间里，每一个新生儿的完整的DNA解读将在技术上是可行的和担负得起的，这预示着医疗保健领域的一场革命。可知这是在告诉我们一项医学上的重大进步。故选A.
5. D
细节理解题：根据第六段The development, however, will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to individuals’ genetic records.可知，这种方法带来的问题就是它可能会泄露个人的基因信息。故选D.
6. B
猜测词句题：根据倒数第二段划线句所在段and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.所说：因为无论你走到哪里，你都会留下你的基因组。因此完全的基因隐私是不可能的，这是你自己不能控制的。可知猜测出本句的意思是：人不能阻止遗传作图技术的推进。故选B.
7. C
推理判断题。根据最后一段所说：然而，随着利益的明朗化，他相信大多数人都希望他们的基因组能够被阅读和解释。这与收益相比风险又是什么。可以推断出作者对此技术是积极的态度。故选C.
【名师点睛】
猜测词句题要求根据阅读材料所提供的信息，结合中学生应有的常识和经验，正确判断生词词组的含义或熟词在特定语境中表达的具体含义以及一些句子的意思。使用“逻辑关系梳理法”、“递向寻踪法”理清人物及事物之间的逻辑关系是关键所在。例如第3小题词句理解题：词句理解题：根据倒数第二段划线句所在段and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.所说：因为无论你走到哪里，你都会留下你的基因组。因此完全的基因隐私是不可能的，这是你自己不能控制的。可知猜测出本句的意思是：人不能阻止遗传作图技术的推进。故选B.
C
Although Paris is often considered the city of romance, close to a million adults who call it home are single. Many single people say that France’s capital is one of the most difficult places to meet people. The complaints(抱怨) of this lonely group have inspired a new phenomenon known as “supermarket dating.” At Galerie Lafayette Gourmet, singles can shop for more than just the items on their grocery list. They can look for someone who has blue eyes, brown hair, and is 1.8 meters tall, or whatever may be on their romantic shopping list. At this Paris location, single people of all ages can schedule their shopping for Thursday nights between 6:30 and 9:00 p.m. When they walk through the door, they pick up a purple basket to advise that they are looking for love. They try to arrive early because the baskets disappear quickly, and then they have to wait in line for their turn to wander the store aisles(过道) . With purple baskets in hand, shoppers can consider their romantic options while they pick out their groceries. When they are ready to pay, they can go to the checkout line for singles who want to chat. Most of the people who look for love in the supermarket are skeptical of Internet dating. They know that it is easy to embellish(美化) one’s appearance or to lie about one’s age over the Internet. The supermarket, on the other hand, is considered a safe and casual environment in which to meet a potential match. In addition, what one finds in another’s grocery basket can say a thing or two about that person’s character or intentions. Buying pet food can be a man’s way of showing a potential match that he has a sensitive side. Women who fill their baskets with low-fat food show their healthy style of living. These days it’s possible to find much more than food at a grocery store.
8. What do many single people in Pairs complain about?
A. The difficulty in meeting people.
B. The idea of supermarket dating.
C. The items on their grocery list.
D. The inconvenience in shopping.
9. Which of the following can be inferred but is not clearly stated in the second paragraph?
A. The dating supermarket is located in Paris. B. The dating supermarket is open only on Thursday evenings. C. People looking for love must get a basket of a particular color D. The dating supermarket has very good business.
10. How do love shoppers meet one another?
A. They schedule their meeting in advance. B. They go through a special checkout. C. They pick out their groceries with great care. D. They dial the phone numbers on their shopping items.
11. Why do the people prefer the supermarket dating to Internet dating?
A. The supermarket dating is more convenient. B. The supermarket dating is more casual. C. The supermarket dating can be trusted more. D. The supermarket dating is less expensive.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. C

Imagine that you’re looking at your company-issued smartphone and you notice an e-mail from Linkedln: “These companies are looking for candidates like you!” You aren’t necessarily searching for a job, but you’re always open to opportunities, so out of curiosity, you click on the link. A few minutes later your boss appears at your desk. “We’ve noticed that you’re spending more time on Linkedln lately, so I wanted to talk with you about your career and whether you’re happy here,” she says. Uh-oh.
It’s an awkward scene. Attrition (损耗）has always been expensive for companies, but in many industries the cost of losing good workers is rising, owing to tight labor markets. Thus companies are intensifying(增强）their efforts to predict which workers are at high risk of leaving so that managers can try to stop them. Tactics (策略）range from electronic monitor to sophisticated(复杂的）analyses of employees’ social media lives.
Some of this work may be a reason to let employees to quit. In general, people leave their jobs because they don’t like their boss, don’t see opportunities for promotion or growth, or are offered a higher pay; these reasons have held steady for years.
New research conducted by CEB, a Washington-based technology company, looks not just at why workers quit but also at when. “We’ve learned that what really affects people is their sense of how they’re doing compared with other people in their peer group, or with where they thought they would be at a certain point in life, says Brian Kropp, who heads CEB’s HR practice. “We’ve learned to focus on moments that allow people to make these comparisons.”
Technology also provides clues about which star employees might be eyeing the exit. Companies can tell whether employees using work computers or phones are spending time on (or even just opening e-mails from) career websites, and research shows that more firms are paying attention to these things. Large companies have also begun tracking badge swipes(浏览痕迹)---- employees’ use of an ID to enter and exit the building or the parking garage---to identify patterns that suggest a worker may be interviewing for a job.
12. From the first paragraph, we can infer Linkedln is___________.
A. an e-mail B. a job from the Internet
C. a professional social network D. a world-famous company
13. What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?
A. The cost of losing good workers is rising.
B. Companies are stricter with workers than before.
C. Measures have been taken to find the potential workers who want to quit.
D. Finding new jobs has been a trend for most workers.
14. According to the research by CEB, which of the following might be the most probable reason for workers to quit their jobs?
A. They don’t like their bosses. B. Workers are always doing comparisons.
C. Not seeing opportunities for promotion. D. To find a higher-paid job.
15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To make a review on a phenomenon. B. To tell us the leader’s concerns.
C. To show a new trend in the job market. D. To stress the role of new technologies.
【答案】12. C 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】本文中作者主要对人们为什么会离职做出了简要分析和评论。
12. C
推理判断题。根据第一段and you notice an e-mail from Linkedln: “These companies are looking for candidates like you!”（原来是领英网的邮件：“这些公司正在招募着你这样的员工！”），可以推断出Linkedln是职业社交网络。故选C.
13. C
段落大意题。根据第二段内容，尤其是Thus companies are intensifying(增强）their efforts to predict which workers are at high risk of leaving so that managers can try to stop them.可知，本段主要告诉我们公司采取了措施找到潜在的可能离职的员工。故选C.
14. B
细节理解题。根据第四段“We’ve learned that what really affects people is their sense of how they’re doing compared with other people in their peer group, or with where they thought they would be at a certain point in life”,可知，员工离职的最主要原因可能就是他们总是在做比较。故选B.
15. A
目的意图题。本文中作者主要对人们为什么会离职做出了简要分析和评论。所以可知，写作目的是对离职这一现象进行评论。故选A.

The average computer user has between 5 and 15 username/password combinations to log in different kinds of account. Some demand you use a specific number of symbols and digits, while others require you to change your password every 60 days. The feeling of confusion resulting from memorizing these login information has grown so common that it actually has a name: password fatigue(疲劳). Having to remember so many different passwords is annoying, but it can also be dangerous. Because it is virtually impossible to remember a unique password for each of these accounts, many people leave handwritten lists of usernames and passwords on or next to their computers._____16_____While these practices make it easier to remember login information, they also make it easier for thieves to hack into accounts. Single Sign-On (SSO) confirmation and password management software can help solve this problem. With SSO, users only need to remember one password to log in to the main system.___17___SSO software is typically used by large companies, schools, or libraries. ___18___If a user loses or forgets the password required to log in to SSO software, the user will then lose access to all of the applications linked to the SSO account. Users who rely on password management software face the same problems. Although most websites or network systems allow users to recover or change lost passwords by providing email addresses or answering a prompt（提示）, this process can waste time and cause further frustration. What is more, recovering a forgotten password is only a temporary solution.___19___ Some computer scientists have suggested computers rely on biometrics(生物测定学). ___20___The use of biometrics raises questions concerning privacy and can also be expensive to practice. Software engineers and computer security experts are still searching for the cure to password fatigue. Until they find the perfect solution, however, everyone will simply have to rely on the password system currently in place. A. It does not address the larger problem of password fatigue.B. These software programs have been built into many major web browsers C. The problem with password management software makes users feel powerless. D. The SSO software then automatically logs the user in to other accounts within the system.E. However, SSO confirmation and password management software also have drawbacks.F. This is a method of recognizing human users based on unique traits, such as fingerprints, voice, or DNA. G. Others solve this problem by using the same password for every account or using extremely simple passwords.
【答案】16. G 17. D 18. E 19. A 20. F
【解析】
16. 上文线索many people...(很多人的解决办)，下文线索while these practices...(这些做法)，得知横线处也是一种做法，故答案为G。
17. 上文线索With SSO, users only need...(讲解SSO的工作原理)，下文线索SSO software is typically ....libraries(讲解SSO的使用区域，非工作原理)故横线处可能填写进一步的工作原理，对应关键词then，选项定位D。
18. 上文线索，给出SSO为一种解决方案；下文线If a user loses ....all of the applications...给出SSO方案的重大缺陷，所以横线处为转折，故答案为E。
19. 上文线索recovering...is only a temporary solution，关键词temporary暂时的，以及only，下文顺承逻辑关系，表达治标不治本的含义，故答案为A。
20. 上文线索，生物测定学，陌生概念；下文线索生物测定学的使用问题和成本，故横
线处应解释陌生概念“生物测定学”，答案为F。

完型填空题的命题特点及答题方法：
1.侧重基础知识，考查学生语言知识的能力
完型填空以文入手，结合文章的内容考查学生的基础知识，主要是词语搭配、固定句型、近义词辨析、辨析句子结构、掌握语法规则的能力，其中考查实词居多。例如第14小题考查动词。句意：题词的内容是：写给Titus，一个为人性而喝彩的人。A..写字；B.说，内容是；C.说话；D.演说。本题主要就是对近义词的辨析，如果不知道B. say有“内容是”的意思，就容易选错。故选B.
2.上下文对照，考查学生捕捉关键词的能力
解完型填空题时，单独看一句话是找不到正确答案的，需要注意句子间的关系及句子与段落的关系。所谓上下对照，即在上文和下文中找到与正确答案相同的关键词。因此，在做题时要边读边在大脑中储存上下文信息的能力，捕捉关键词。
3.设置语境，考查学生的分析推理能力
旨在考查学生在选项都符合语法及句子结构的情况下能否利用前后语境去推断出正确答案。例如第5小题考查动词。句意：我被这两个人对比如此鲜明震撼到了。A.抓住；B.感动；C.哽咽；D.震撼。故选D.和第6小题考查形容词。句意：我被这两个人对比如此鲜明震撼到了。A.相同的；B.相反的；C.小心的；D.努力的。故选B.两个小题都是通过上下文的语境，推理得出。
4.结合生活，考查学生利用常识题的能力
目的考查学生的生活常识，看看学生是否善于观察生活，积累生活常识，能否利用常识去做恰当的选择。
5.关注连词，考查学生对行文逻辑、句子关联的理解能力
此项用来考查学生在缺少连词的情况想，通过阅读能否理解句子的与句子的关系，是否了解行文逻辑的要求，能否掌握表示因果、转折、并列、条件、让步等的连词的用法。例如第15小题考查连词。句意：要是我们大多数人都那样做了又怎么呢？A.要……会怎么样；B.除非；C.就好像；D.仅仅。故选A.
第II 卷（共60分）
注意：将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。
第一节 （共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。
Pinyin is a useful tool, which _____41_____ (teach)in China to school kids. It is not merely used by westerners like us. It has proved to be a useful tool for Chinese people ____42____ (they)to learn standard pronunciation in their early education.
The first step is to learn how _____43_____ (pronounce) each letter in pinyin correctly and the meaning of the tone markers. Then you have to do______44______ (drill) as many as you can. Turn that into a game. It can be ___45___ (much) fun than you would expect. Start ____46____single syllables and to that a lot and then syllable（音节）pairs. Slowly move on to larger groups. Understand the initial, final and the tones.
But most importantly, what you need is good feedback. You’d better have someone that can correct your mistakes immediately.
Find a native Chinese, _____47_____ pronunciation is quite perfect to correct you. If you take Chinese classes, the teacher will______48______ (probable) have you do exercises every class. Do this very seriously.
If you are self-studying, try to meet native Chinese people and ask them to give you some feedback.
Otherwise, try to be self-critical and listen very carefully. Good______49______ (listen) is more than 50% of ____50____ it takes to pronounce correctly.
【答案】41. is taught
42. themselves
43. to pronounce 44. drills 45. more 46. with 47. whose 48. probably
49. listening 50. what
【解析】本文主要介绍了如何学好汉语拼音。
41. is taught
考查动词。根据句意：汉语拼音是一个有用的工具，它在中国被教给上学的孩子。谓语动词，是被动语态，故填is taught.
42. themselves
考查代词。反身代词themselves作Chinese people（中国人）的同位语，故填themselves.
43. to pronounce
考查不定式。句意：第一步是学习如何正确地发每个字母的音。动词learn后接疑问词+to do作宾语，故填to pronounce.
44. drills
考查名词。可数名词drill（训练），根据句意是要做很多的训练，此处应该用复数，故填drills.
45. more
考查词。句意：它可能有比你想象的更多的乐趣。要用比较级more（更多的），故填more.
46. with
考查词。固定短语：start with（以……开始），故填with.
47. whose
考查关系代词。定语从句先行词是Chinese（中国人），用关系代词whose代替它在从句中作定语修饰从句中的名词pronunciation，故填whose.
48. probably
考查副词。副词probably（可能地）作状语，故填probably.
49. listening
考查动名词。动名词listening作主语，故填listening.
50. what
考查代词。连接代词what引导宾语从句，作介词of的宾语。它在从句中作动词take的宾语，故填what.
【名师点睛】
语法填空是根据首字母提示及短文大意填词的短文阅读。此题型要求结合文章内容填出单词，所填单词往往与文章的内容息息相关，因而解题前必须通读全文，对全文内容有一个整体的了解，从中获取文章的基本结构、体裁、主题及所使用的语态等信息。通读后再复读，边读边填词。
填词时应注意所填词的词性，如果是动词，需根据其在句中的意思确定其正确的时态、语态及非谓语动词形式。例如第1小题考查动词。根据句意：汉语拼音是一个有用的工具，它在中国被教给上学的孩子。谓语动词，要注意是被动语态，故填is taught.
如果是名词应注意其单复数、所有格的变化。例如第4小题考查名词。可数名词drill（训练），根据句意是要做很多的训练，此处应该用复数，故填drills.
如果是代词应注意其主格、宾格、形容词性物主代词、名词性物主代词、反身代词等的变化。
如果是形容词、副词应注意其等级的变化及两者之间的转化。
如果考查某些语法内容及特殊句式，要牢记语法规则，认真分析。例如第10小题考查代词。连接代词what引导宾语从句，作介词of的宾语。它在从句中作动词take的宾语，故填what.
对于有一定难度的空处，先将其放置一边做后面的，最后再从全篇内容上考虑、分析，仔细体会出题者的意图。填完所有单词后，必须将所有填的词带入文中再读一遍，仔细检查自己所填的词是否与文章的情境、内容一致，读起来是否流畅，单词拼写是否正确，单词形式是否恰当等，发现问题应及时纠正。
第二节：短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
51. 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧），并在其下面写出该加的词。
删除：把多余的词用斜线（＼）划掉。
修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意：1.每处错误及其修改均限一词。
2.只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。
I’m Li Hua, a senior three student in our school. Last Monday I received three America students. We had a wonderful time. And I tasted the pleased feeling of friendship.
In the afternoon, after divided into two groups, we began to work for the coming English speech context. Just as I was wondering what to do next, I saw a familiar figure passed by our classroom. It was my English teacher. I wondered that he would say. He said that it was a competition that everyone would like to take part in it. He added that was pretty fluent with English, but I needed to arrange my time good.
In the evening, at about half past ten, we finished working. I don’t know the result, but I’m sure without our help, winning the championship will be the effort.
【答案】短文改错（一题1分，共10分）：
1. America→American
2. pleased→pleasing/pleasant
3. after之后加being
4. passed→passing
5. take part in后面的it去掉
6. that→what
7. with→in
8. good→well
9. our→their/ his
10. the→an
【解析】1. 考查形容词。形容词American（美国的）作定语修饰名词students。故America→American.
2. 考查形容词。形容词pleased（高兴的）；形容词pleasing/pleasant（令人高兴的）修饰名词feeling（情感）。故pleased→pleasing/pleasant.
3. 考查动名词。介词after后接名词或动名词，所以要用动名词的被动语态形式（being done）作宾语，故 after之后加being.
4. 考查动名词。固定结构：see sb. doing sth.（看到某人正在做某事），故passed→passing.
5. 考查代词。定语从句中关系代词that已经作了介词in的宾语，故take part in后面的it去掉.
6. 考查代词。宾语从句中用what作动词say的宾语，而that不作任何成份。故that→what.
7. 考查介词。固定短语：in English（用英语），故with→in.
8. 考查副词。副词well作状语，修饰谓语动词，故 good→well.
9. 考查代词。根据句意：但我相信没有他/他们的帮助，赢得冠军还将需要一份努力的。故our→their/ his.
10. 考查冠词。句意：但我相信没有他/他们的帮助，赢得冠军还将需要一份努力的。此处用an表示“一份”修饰可数名词effort（努力），故 the→an.

A
Instagram is containing so many photos of food---now a pop-up diner in London is taking advantage of this new trend by letting people settle the bill for their meals simply by uploading photos of their dishes to social networks.
I always thought people's taking pictures of their food was kind of silly, but at this new pop-up restaurant in the UK, I'd probably do it too. “The Picture House” is the world's first pay-by-photo restaurant—you order, click a photo of the food, share on Instagram and eat for free!
The restaurant belongs to frozen food giant (巨人）Birds Eye, who came up with the idea to cash in on people’s addiction with photographing food and sharing the pictures online. They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals. So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range.
The pop-up diner was open in Soho, London for three days in May, and is now moving to other major UK cities. They serve two-course meals that customers don't have to pay for, if they photo and Instagram it.
The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye’s “Food for Life,” campaign, a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food. “Taking photos of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments—from the everyday to the special,” said marketing director Margaret Jobling.
The reaction to The Picture House has been great so far. And the pay-by-picture concept has proven to be an effective way. Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses. Last year, in a cafe in Germany customers pay by how much time they spend there, not by what they eat.
1. Instagram probably is_______________.
A. a restaurant free of charge B. a campaign of “Food for Life”
C. a new marketing project D. a program used to share photos
2. “The Picture House” encourages sharing photos of its food to_____________.
A. raise the price of frozen food B. attract more customers
C. create a new social media trend D. reward the regular customers
3. Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?
A. No Need to Pay. B. The Pop-up Diner.
C. Pay by Picture. D. Food for Life.
【答案】1. D 2. B 3. C
1. D
推理判断题。本文主要讲的是英国一家餐厅将餐厅经营与时下流行的照片分享软件相结合的事例，可知Instagram可能是一种分享照片的程序。故选D.
2. B
细节理解题。根据第三段So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range.可知，他想拓宽餐厅的业务范围，吸引更多的顾客。故选B。
3. C
标题判断题。英国一家餐厅将餐厅经营与时下流行的照片分享软件相结合的事例，人们只要上传照片就可以获得免单。所以最佳标题是C. Pay by Picture，故选C.
B
Every day born a decade from now will have its genetic code(基因编码)mapped at birth, the head of the world’s leading genome sequencing(基因图谱)company has predicted.
A complete DNA read – out for every newborn will be technically possible and affordable in less than five years, promising a revolution in healthcare, says Jay Flatley, the chief executive of Illumina. Only social and legal problems are likely to delay the age of “genome sequences,” or genetic profiles. By 2019 it will have become routine to map infants’ genes when they are born, Dr Flatly told The Times.
This will open a new approach to medicine, by which conditions such as high blood pressure and heart disease can be predicted and prevented and drugs used more safely and effectively.
A baby’s genome can be discovered at birth by a blood test. By examining a person’s genome, it is possible to identify raised risks of developing diseases such as cancers. Those at high risk can then be screened more regularly, or given drugs or dietary advice to lower their chances of becoming ill.
Personal genomes could also be used to ensure that patients get the medicine that is most likely to work for them and least likely to have side – effects.
The development, however, will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to individuals’ genetic records.
“Bad things can be done with the genome. It could predict something about someone – and you could possibly hand the information to their employer or their insurance company.” said Dr Flatley.
“People have to recognize that this horse is out of the barn, and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.
As the benefits become clearer, however, he believes that most people will want their genomes read and interpreted. The risk is nothing compared with the gain.
4. In the first two paragraphs, the author mainly wants to tell us about__________.
A. the significant progress in medicine
B. the promise of a leading company
C. the information of babies’ genes
D. the research of medical scientists
5. Which of the following is a problem caused by this approach?
A. The delaying in discovering DNA.
B. The risk of developing diseases at birth.
C. The side effects of medicine on patients.
D. The letting out of personal genetic information.
6. What does the underlined sentence “… this horse is out of the barn” mean?
A. Genetic mapping technique has been widely used.
B. people can’t stop genetic mapping technique advancing.
C. People are eager to improve genetic mapping technique.
D. Genetic mapping technique is too horrible to control.
7. What’s Dr Flatley’s attitude towards the technology?
A. Tolerant. B. Conservative. C. Positive. D. Doubtful.
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. B 7. C
【解析】本文介绍了一项医学上的重大进步，即DNA技术在医疗上的应用。
4. A
目的意图题。根据前两段告诉我们在不到五年的时间里，每一个新生儿的完整的DNA解读将在技术上是可行的和担负得起的，这预示着医疗保健领域的一场革命。可知这是在告诉我们一项医学上的重大进步。故选A.
5. D
细节理解题：根据第六段The development, however, will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to individuals’ genetic records.可知，这种方法带来的问题就是它可能会泄露个人的基因信息。故选D.
6. B
猜测词句题：根据倒数第二段划线句所在段and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.所说：因为无论你走到哪里，你都会留下你的基因组。因此完全的基因隐私是不可能的，这是你自己不能控制的。可知猜测出本句的意思是：人不能阻止遗传作图技术的推进。故选B.
7. C
推理判断题。根据最后一段所说：然而，随着利益的明朗化，他相信大多数人都希望他们的基因组能够被阅读和解释。这与收益相比风险又是什么。可以推断出作者对此技术是积极的态度。故选C.
【名师点睛】
猜测词句题要求根据阅读材料所提供的信息，结合中学生应有的常识和经验，正确判断生词词组的含义或熟词在特定语境中表达的具体含义以及一些句子的意思。使用“逻辑关系梳理法”、“递向寻踪法”理清人物及事物之间的逻辑关系是关键所在。例如第3小题词句理解题：词句理解题：根据倒数第二段划线句所在段and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.所说：因为无论你走到哪里，你都会留下你的基因组。因此完全的基因隐私是不可能的，这是你自己不能控制的。可知猜测出本句的意思是：人不能阻止遗传作图技术的推进。故选B.

Although Paris is often considered the city of romance, close to a million adults who call it home are single. Many single people say that France’s capital is one of the most difficult places to meet people. The complaints(抱怨) of this lonely group have inspired a new phenomenon known as “supermarket dating.” At Galerie Lafayette Gourmet, singles can shop for more than just the items on their grocery list. They can look for someone who has blue eyes, brown hair, and is 1.8 meters tall, or whatever may be on their romantic shopping list. At this Paris location, single people of all ages can schedule their shopping for Thursday nights between 6:30 and 9:00 p.m. When they walk through the door, they pick up a purple basket to advise that they are looking for love. They try to arrive early because the baskets disappear quickly, and then they have to wait in line for their turn to wander the store aisles(过道) . With purple baskets in hand, shoppers can consider their romantic options while they pick out their groceries. When they are ready to pay, they can go to the checkout line for singles who want to chat. Most of the people who look for love in the supermarket are skeptical of Internet dating. They know that it is easy to embellish(美化) one’s appearance or to lie about one’s age over the Internet. The supermarket, on the other hand, is considered a safe and casual environment in which to meet a potential match. In addition, what one finds in another’s grocery basket can say a thing or two about that person’s character or intentions. Buying pet food can be a man’s way of showing a potential match that he has a sensitive side. Women who fill their baskets with low-fat food show their healthy style of living. These days it’s possible to find much more than food at a grocery store.
8. What do many single people in Pairs complain about?
A. The difficulty in meeting people.
B. The idea of supermarket dating.
C. The items on their grocery list.
D. The inconvenience in shopping.
9. Which of the following can be inferred but is not clearly stated in the second paragraph?
A. The dating supermarket is located in Paris. B. The dating supermarket is open only on Thursday evenings. C. People looking for love must get a basket of a particular color D. The dating supermarket has very good business.
10. How do love shoppers meet one another?
A. They schedule their meeting in advance. B. They go through a special checkout. C. They pick out their groceries with great care. D. They dial the phone numbers on their shopping items.
11. Why do the people prefer the supermarket dating to Internet dating?
A. The supermarket dating is more convenient. B. The supermarket dating is more casual. C. The supermarket dating can be trusted more. D. The supermarket dating is less expensive.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. C

Imagine that you’re looking at your company-issued smartphone and you notice an e-mail from Linkedln: “These companies are looking for candidates like you!” You aren’t necessarily searching for a job, but you’re always open to opportunities, so out of curiosity, you click on the link. A few minutes later your boss appears at your desk. “We’ve noticed that you’re spending more time on Linkedln lately, so I wanted to talk with you about your career and whether you’re happy here,” she says. Uh-oh.
It’s an awkward scene. Attrition (损耗）has always been expensive for companies, but in many industries the cost of losing good workers is rising, owing to tight labor markets. Thus companies are intensifying(增强）their efforts to predict which workers are at high risk of leaving so that managers can try to stop them. Tactics (策略）range from electronic monitor to sophisticated(复杂的）analyses of employees’ social media lives.
Some of this work may be a reason to let employees to quit. In general, people leave their jobs because they don’t like their boss, don’t see opportunities for promotion or growth, or are offered a higher pay; these reasons have held steady for years.
New research conducted by CEB, a Washington-based technology company, looks not just at why workers quit but also at when. “We’ve learned that what really affects people is their sense of how they’re doing compared with other people in their peer group, or with where they thought they would be at a certain point in life, says Brian Kropp, who heads CEB’s HR practice. “We’ve learned to focus on moments that allow people to make these comparisons.”
Technology also provides clues about which star employees might be eyeing the exit. Companies can tell whether employees using work computers or phones are spending time on (or even just opening e-mails from) career websites, and research shows that more firms are paying attention to these things. Large companies have also begun tracking badge swipes(浏览痕迹)---- employees’ use of an ID to enter and exit the building or the parking garage---to identify patterns that suggest a worker may be interviewing for a job.

E
The average computer user has between 5 and 15 username/password combinations to log in different kinds of account. Some demand you use a specific number of symbols and digits, while others require you to change your password every 60 days. The feeling of confusion resulting from memorizing these login information has grown so common that it actually has a name: password fatigue(疲劳). Having to remember so many different passwords is annoying, but it can also be dangerous. Because it is virtually impossible to remember a unique password for each of these accounts, many people leave handwritten lists of usernames and passwords on or next to their computers._____16_____While these practices make it easier to remember login information, they also make it easier for thieves to hack into accounts. Single Sign-On (SSO) confirmation and password management software can help solve this problem. With SSO, users only need to remember one password to log in to the main system.___17___SSO software is typically used by large companies, schools, or libraries. ___18___If a user loses or forgets the password required to log in to SSO software, the user will then lose access to all of the applications linked to the SSO account. Users who rely on password management software face the same problems. Although most websites or network systems allow users to recover or change lost passwords by providing email addresses or answering a prompt（提示）, this process can waste time and cause further frustration. What is more, recovering a forgotten password is only a temporary solution.___19___ Some computer scientists have suggested computers rely on biometrics(生物测定学). ___20___The use of biometrics raises questions concerning privacy and can also be expensive to practice. Software engineers and computer security experts are still searching for the cure to password fatigue. Until they find the perfect solution, however, everyone will simply have to rely on the password system currently in place. A. It does not address the larger problem of password fatigue.B. These software programs have been built into many major web browsers C. The problem with password management software makes users feel powerless. D. The SSO software then automatically logs the user in to other accounts within the system.E. However, SSO confirmation and password management software also have drawbacks.F. This is a method of recognizing human users based on unique traits, such as fingerprints, voice, or DNA. G. Others solve this problem by using the same password for every account or using extremely simple passwords.
【答案】16. G 17. D 18. E 19. A 20. F
【解析】
16. 上文线索many people...(很多人的解决办)，下文线索while these practices...(这些做法)，得知横线处也是一种做法，故答案为G。
17. 上文线索With SSO, users only need...(讲解SSO的工作原理)，下文线索SSO software is typically ....libraries(讲解SSO的使用区域，非工作原理)故横线处可能填写进一步的工作原理，对应关键词then，选项定位D。
18. 上文线索，给出SSO为一种解决方案；下文线If a user loses ....all of the applications...给出SSO方案的重大缺陷，所以横线处为转折，故答案为E。
19. 上文线索recovering...is only a temporary solution，关键词temporary暂时的，以及only，下文顺承逻辑关系，表达治标不治本的含义，故答案为A。
20. 上文线索，生物测定学，陌生概念；下文线索生物测定学的使用问题和成本，故横
线处应解释陌生概念“生物测定学”，答案为F。

【名师点睛】
完型填空题的命题特点及答题方法：
1.侧重基础知识，考查学生语言知识的能力
完型填空以文入手，结合文章的内容考查学生的基础知识，主要是词语搭配、固定句型、近义词辨析、辨析句子结构、掌握语法规则的能力，其中考查实词居多。例如第14小题考查动词。句意：题词的内容是：写给Titus，一个为人性而喝彩的人。A..写字；B.说，内容是；C.说话；D.演说。本题主要就是对近义词的辨析，如果不知道B. say有“内容是”的意思，就容易选错。故选B.
2.上下文对照，考查学生捕捉关键词的能力
解完型填空题时，单独看一句话是找不到正确答案的，需要注意句子间的关系及句子与段落的关系。所谓上下对照，即在上文和下文中找到与正确答案相同的关键词。因此，在做题时要边读边在大脑中储存上下文信息的能力，捕捉关键词。
3.设置语境，考查学生的分析推理能力
旨在考查学生在选项都符合语法及句子结构的情况下能否利用前后语境去推断出正确答案。例如第5小题考查动词。句意：我被这两个人对比如此鲜明震撼到了。A.抓住；B.感动；C.哽咽；D.震撼。故选D.和第6小题考查形容词。句意：我被这两个人对比如此鲜明震撼到了。A.相同的；B.相反的；C.小心的；D.努力的。故选B.两个小题都是通过上下文的语境，推理得出。
4.结合生活，考查学生利用常识题的能力
目的考查学生的生活常识，看看学生是否善于观察生活，积累生活常识，能否利用常识去做恰当的选择。
5.关注连词，考查学生对行文逻辑、句子关联的理解能力
此项用来考查学生在缺少连词的情况想，通过阅读能否理解句子的与句子的关系，是否了解行文逻辑的要求，能否掌握表示因果、转折、并列、条件、让步等的连词的用法。例如第15小题考查连词。句意：要是我们大多数人都那样做了又怎么呢？A.要……会怎么样；B.除非；C.就好像；D.仅仅。故选A.
第II 卷（共60分）
注意：将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。
第一节 （共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。
Pinyin is a useful tool, which _____41_____ (teach)in China to school kids. It is not merely used by westerners like us. It has proved to be a useful tool for Chinese people ____42____ (they)to learn standard pronunciation in their early education.
The first step is to learn how _____43_____ (pronounce) each letter in pinyin correctly and the meaning of the tone markers. Then you have to do______44______ (drill) as many as you can. Turn that into a game. It can be ___45___ (much) fun than you would expect. Start ____46____single syllables and to that a lot and then syllable（音节）pairs. Slowly move on to larger groups. Understand the initial, final and the tones.
But most importantly, what you need is good feedback. You’d better have someone that can correct your mistakes immediately.
Find a native Chinese, _____47_____ pronunciation is quite perfect to correct you. If you take Chinese classes, the teacher will______48______ (probable) have you do exercises every class. Do this very seriously.
If you are self-studying, try to meet native Chinese people and ask them to give you some feedback.
Otherwise, try to be self-critical and listen very carefully. Good______49______ (listen) is more than 50% of ____50____ it takes to pronounce correctly.
【答案】41. is taught
42. themselves
43. to pronounce 44. drills 45. more 46. with 47. whose 48. probably
49. listening 50. what
【解析】本文主要介绍了如何学好汉语拼音。
41. is taught
考查动词。根据句意：汉语拼音是一个有用的工具，它在中国被教给上学的孩子。谓语动词，是被动语态，故填is taught.
42. themselves
考查代词。反身代词themselves作Chinese people（中国人）的同位语，故填themselves.
43. to pronounce
考查不定式。句意：第一步是学习如何正确地发每个字母的音。动词learn后接疑问词+to do作宾语，故填to pronounce.
44. drills
考查名词。可数名词drill（训练），根据句意是要做很多的训练，此处应该用复数，故填drills.
45. more
考查词。句意：它可能有比你想象的更多的乐趣。要用比较级more（更多的），故填more.
46. with
考查词。固定短语：start with（以……开始），故填with.
47. whose
考查关系代词。定语从句先行词是Chinese（中国人），用关系代词whose代替它在从句中作定语修饰从句中的名词pronunciation，故填whose.
48. probably
考查副词。副词probably（可能地）作状语，故填probably.
49. listening
考查动名词。动名词listening作主语，故填listening.
50. what
考查代词。连接代词what引导宾语从句，作介词of的宾语。它在从句中作动词take的宾语，故填what.
【名师点睛】
语法填空是根据首字母提示及短文大意填词的短文阅读。此题型要求结合文章内容填出单词，所填单词往往与文章的内容息息相关，因而解题前必须通读全文，对全文内容有一个整体的了解，从中获取文章的基本结构、体裁、主题及所使用的语态等信息。通读后再复读，边读边填词。
填词时应注意所填词的词性，如果是动词，需根据其在句中的意思确定其正确的时态、语态及非谓语动词形式。例如第1小题考查动词。根据句意：汉语拼音是一个有用的工具，它在中国被教给上学的孩子。谓语动词，要注意是被动语态，故填is taught.
如果是名词应注意其单复数、所有格的变化。例如第4小题考查名词。可数名词drill（训练），根据句意是要做很多的训练，此处应该用复数，故填drills.
如果是代词应注意其主格、宾格、形容词性物主代词、名词性物主代词、反身代词等的变化。
如果是形容词、副词应注意其等级的变化及两者之间的转化。
如果考查某些语法内容及特殊句式，要牢记语法规则，认真分析。例如第10小题考查代词。连接代词what引导宾语从句，作介词of的宾语。它在从句中作动词take的宾语，故填what.
对于有一定难度的空处，先将其放置一边做后面的，最后再从全篇内容上考虑、分析，仔细体会出题者的意图。填完所有单词后，必须将所有填的词带入文中再读一遍，仔细检查自己所填的词是否与文章的情境、内容一致，读起来是否流畅，单词拼写是否正确，单词形式是否恰当等，发现问题应及时纠正。
第二节：短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
51. 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧），并在其下面写出该加的词。
删除：把多余的词用斜线（＼）划掉。
修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意：1.每处错误及其修改均限一词。
2.只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。
I’m Li Hua, a senior three student in our school. Last Monday I received three America students. We had a wonderful time. And I tasted the pleased feeling of friendship.
In the afternoon, after divided into two groups, we began to work for the coming English speech context. Just as I was wondering what to do next, I saw a familiar figure passed by our classroom. It was my English teacher. I wondered that he would say. He said that it was a competition that everyone would like to take part in it. He added that was pretty fluent with English, but I needed to arrange my time good.
In the evening, at about half past ten, we finished working. I don’t know the result, but I’m sure without our help, winning the championship will be the effort.
【答案】短文改错（一题1分，共10分）：
1. America→American
2. pleased→pleasing/pleasant
3. after之后加being
4. passed→passing
5. take part in后面的it去掉
6. that→what
7. with→in
8. good→well
9. our→their/ his
10. the→an
【解析】1. 考查形容词。形容词American（美国的）作定语修饰名词students。故America→American.
2. 考查形容词。形容词pleased（高兴的）；形容词pleasing/pleasant（令人高兴的）修饰名词feeling（情感）。故pleased→pleasing/pleasant.
3. 考查动名词。介词after后接名词或动名词，所以要用动名词的被动语态形式（being done）作宾语，故 after之后加being.
4. 考查动名词。固定结构：see sb. doing sth.（看到某人正在做某事），故passed→passing.
5. 考查代词。定语从句中关系代词that已经作了介词in的宾语，故take part in后面的it去掉.
6. 考查代词。宾语从句中用what作动词say的宾语，而that不作任何成份。故that→what.
7. 考查介词。固定短语：in English（用英语），故with→in.
8. 考查副词。副词well作状语，修饰谓语动词，故 good→well.
9. 考查代词。根据句意：但我相信没有他/他们的帮助，赢得冠军还将需要一份努力的。故our→their/ his.
10. 考查冠词。句意：但我相信没有他/他们的帮助，赢得冠军还将需要一份努力的。此处用an表示“一份”修饰可数名词effort（努力），故 the→an.
52. 第二节 书面表达（满分25分）
假定你是李华，你的英国朋友Alice对中国艺术感兴趣，特写信请你向她介绍中国传统艺术。请依据下列要点，给其写封回信。
要点：1.介绍传统艺术――――年画；
2.欢迎Alice来中国体验中国年画的创作。
注意：1. 词数100左右。
2. 可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。
提示词：年画Chinese New Year paintings
Dear Alice,
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yours truly,
Li Hua
【答案】Dear Alice,
How is everything going? I’m so happy to know that you are interested in Chinese traditional arts from your letter. In my opinion, learning Chinese New Year paintings is the best choice. As is known to us all, Chinese people would like to put up pictures to celebrate the Spring Festival. Chinese New Year paintings cover various subjects, like historical stories, harvests, flowers and birds. As you are good at painting, I believe you can learn the art well quickly. By learning it, you can know more about Chinese culture, and improve your drawing skills.
I’m looking forward to seeing you soon in China.
Yours,
Li Hua
写作亮点：本篇条理清楚，要点全面，结构连贯。其句式上的变化既使得文章生动而流畅，也体现了作者驾驭句式的能力。例如：文章运用了定语从句As is known to us all,和动名词短语learning Chinese New Year paintings作主语等。
