When I was a young musician, he was my biggest fan. I played my violin for him when he visited, and he loved everything, but each time he had one request. “Could you play Amazing Grace?” he asked, full of hope and with a twinkle in his eye, because he knew my answer was always, “I don’t know that one!” We went through this routine at every major holiday, and I always figured I’d have time to learn it for him later.About the time I entered high school and started guitar, Grandpa got cancer. The last time I saw him alive was Thanksgiving weekend in 1985. My mom warned us that Grandpa didn’t look the same anymore and that we should prepare ourselves. For a moment I didn’t recognize him. He looked so small among all the white sheets. We had all gathered in Ohio for the holiday, and I’m sure we all knew we were there to say good-bye. I can see now that Grandpa held on long enough to see us each one more time. I remember how we ate in the dining room and laughed and talked while Grandpa rested in his hospital bed. I wonder if it was sad for him to be alone with our voices and laughter. Knowing Grandpa, he was probably content.The next morning, I found my moment alone with him. I pulled out my guitar, tuned to his appreciative gaze, and finally played for him Amazing Grace. I had worked on it for weeks, knowing it never mattered whether I actually played it well and choosing not to believe as I played that it was my last concert for my biggest fan. The cancer had stolen his smile, but I saw joy in his eyes. He held my hand afterward, and I knew I had done something important.I argued with people all through college about my music major. I was told by strangers that music wouldn’t make me any money and it wasn’t useful like being a doctor. But I know first-hand that with music I was able to give my grandpa something at a point when no one else could.4、At first the author didn’t play Amazing Grace for Grandpa because_______.A. she hadn’t learned it yet B. she found it difficult to playC. she disliked playing it D. her grandfather was just joking5、From the last sentence in Paragraph 2 we can infer that Grandpa______.A. treasured love from family B. was used to living aloneC. was too weak to feel anything D. was optimistic about his health6、When the author finally played Amazing Grace for Grandpa, she ______.A. made him smile joyfullyB. knew she must play it wellC. brought him love and comfortD. believed she could play it many times for him7、Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.

The author is confident that music will make her much money.The World Health Organization warns that millions of people are dying every year from indoor air pollution. The WHO finds that poor cooking, heating and lighting technologies are killing millions of people each year. Indoor air pollution results from the use of dangerous fuels and cook-stoves in the home. To help fight the problem, the WHO announced, new guidelines aimed at reducing household pollutants.WHO officials say nearly three billion people are unable to use clean fuels and technologies for cooking, heating and lighting. And they say more than seven million people die from exposure to indoor or outdoor air pollution each year. Of that number, the WHO says about 4. 3 million people die from household air pollution given off by simple coal cook-stoves. WHO officials say indoor pollution leads to early deaths from stroke(中风), heart and lung disease. The main victims are women and girls in developing countries, where they usually stay at home and do the household work.Carlos Dora is Coordinator in the WHO’s Department of Public Health, Environmental and Social Determinants of Health. He says people should not use unprocessed coal and kerosene (煤油) fuel indoors. He says opening a window or door to let out the harmful air will not improve the situation. It will only pollute the outdoors.Nigel Bruce is a professor of Public Health at the University of Liverpool. He says researchers are developing good cook-stoves and other equipment to burn fuels in a more efficient way.WHO experts note some new, safe and low-cost technologies that could help are already available. In India, you can buy an induction (电磁) stove for about $ 8.00. And in Africa you can buy a solar lamp for less than $ 1. 00. But, this, the agency says, is just a start. It is urging developing countries to use cleaner fuels and increase access to cleaner and more modern cooking and heating items.8、What does “the problem” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Indoor air pollution. B. Cooking habits.C. Poor cook—stove.  D. Use of natural gas.9、Why are women and girls the main victims of the indoor pollution?A. They are very weak in the developing countries.B. They are more sensitive to the indoor pollution.C. They are exposed to the indoor pollution more.D. They are lack of doing more exercise outdoors.10、Which of the following is a good way to avoid indoor air pollution?A. To open a window while cooking.B. To use unprocessed coal indoors.C. To popularize the traditional cook—stoves in the home.D. To promote the cleaner and modern cooking items.11、What is the best title of the text?A. How to prevent pollutionB. How to protect women and girlsC. Indoor pollution kills millions each yearD. The importance of health in developing countries    The idea of biting into a hamburger made from insects may take a little getting used to. But even if the thought of eating insects turns your stomach now, insects could and should form an important part of our diet.    "Insects are a really important missing piece of the food system," says Peter Alexander, a senior researcher in food security at the University of Edinburgh. "They are undoubtedly a superfood—a whole lot of nutrition in a really small package." Because of this, farmed insects could help deal with two of the world's biggest problems at once: food insecurity and the climate change.    Agriculture is the biggest driver of global biodiversity loss and a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions (排放物). Raising animals accounts for 14.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Insect farming uses a small part of the land, energy and water required for traditional farming, and has a significantly lower carbon footprint.    Then there's the fact that insects are 12 to 25 times more efficient at changing their food into protein (蛋白质) than animals. They need six times less feed than cattle, four times less than sheep and two times less than pigs. One of the main reasons is that insects are cold-blooded and therefore waste less energy keeping their body heat.    As well as saving energy, insects can live off food that would otherwise be thrown away, contributing to the recycling industry. Insects can be fed agricultural waste. To complete the recycling chain, their excrement can be used to make crops grow fast and large and improve soil.    "At the end of the day, you might have the healthiest, most nutritional, and most sustainable (可持续的)product, but unless it tastes nice so that people are willing to accept it, it may be a lot more difficult to get that across," says Peter.12、What could be a benefit of farmed insects?A.Reducing traditional farming. B.Helping fight climate change.C.Tasting more delicious. D.Improving global biodiversity.13、Why can insects produce more protein?A.They eat food with high protein. B.They have a special type of blood.C.They digest food better than animals. D.They require less energy to stay warm.14、What does the underlined word "excrement" mean in Paragraph 5?A.Waste. B.Food. C.Meat. D.Nutrition.15、Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A.A Solution to World Food Insecurity B.What to Do to Solve Climate ChangeC.Why We Should Quit Animal Raising D.An Overlooked Protein-Rich Superfood二、七选五16、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。​    “Communication is the most essential and sociable of all human behaviors”, which is absolutely true as for human community.

As an anxious four-year-old, I had asked my mom several times if the Easter Bunny would be able to find us. She promised me there would be eggs. On Easter morning, my mom and I discovered that the Easter Bunny had left eggs on the hotel’s main lawn(草地) for all the kids. As we walked toward the group of adults and kids waiting for instructions, I found all of the kids were much bigger than me in the competition. It wasn’t looking good. The hotel staff member in charge of the hunt explained the rules. My heart began racing as I watched some of the other kids get into a pose to start. When the staff member yelled “GO!”, all kids raced across the lawn, running from tree to tree looking for the plastic Easter eggs filled with candy. I dashed to the closest tree but did not find any eggs. I ran to a nearby sandpit(沙坑) hoping there would be an egg hidden there. But there wasn’t. I looked across the lawn and saw the other kids holding up their plastic eggs and knew my chance of finding even one egg was becoming smaller by the second. Just then my mom pointed out a palm tree across the lawn. “Look! There’s One!”A shiny blue plastic egg was resting against the base of the tree. I looked up at my mom in excitement. However, she was staring in the direction of another mom, whose son was pulling candy out of an egg. The two moms were looking at one another and then at what appeared to be the last Easter egg. I had never seen my very petite(娇小的) mom before that day. She had been born with weak knees, due to an issue with her legs, and when she was in primary school she had worn special shoes to correct a foot problem. 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。As they stood there staring at each other, I started running toward the Easter egg. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________My mom walked back to me with the Easter egg of her victory. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
参考答案1、答案：B2、答案：A3、答案：C4、答案：A5、答案：A6、答案：C7、答案：B8、答案：A9、答案：C10、答案：D11、答案：C12、答案：B解析：细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句中farmed insects could help deal with two of the world's biggest problems at once: food insecurity and the climate change 可知,养殖的昆虫可以帮助解决当今世界面临的两大难题:粮食安全问题和气候变化。故选B项。13、答案：D解析：细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句One of the main reasons is that insects are cold-blooded and therefore waste less energy keeping their body heat.可知,昆虫能够产生更多蛋白质的一个主要原因是,它们是冷血生物,因此保持体温仅需较少的能量。故选D项。14、答案：A解析：词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段内容可知,昆虫可以依靠原本会被扔掉的食物为生,从而对回收产业作出贡献;昆虫还可以用农业废弃物来喂养。由关键词complete the recycling chain可知,该过程应形成一个完整的循环链。用农业废弃物喂养昆虫,昆虫粪便促进农作物生长,正好形成一条完整的循环链。项意为“废料;类便”,与画线词意思相近。故选A项。15、答案：D解析：主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知,昆虫可以作为人类饮食的组成部分,它富含蛋白质且对环境友好,但目前尚未被重视,是一种被忽略的、富含蛋白质的超级食品。由此可知,D项符合语境,适合作为本文的标题;且D项中的Overlooked对应第一段最后一句中的insects could and should form an important part of our diet(昆虫可以并应该成为我们饮食的重要组成部分),表明昆虫目前尚未成为我们饮食的重要组成部分;Superfood对应第二段中的They are undoubtedly a superfood。故选 D项。16、答案：①-⑤ GFEBC解析：本文是说明文。交流是人类日常行为中不可缺少的部分。那么怎么才能顺利交流呢?文章从三个方面介绍了交流的策略。即充分准备,学会倾听,重视目光交流。①设空处前面提到交流的意义。设空处后面提到“Because these certain conversations can make people attracted. (某些对话可以使人备受吸引)”。选项G中提到"Furthermore, good communication is an interesting attraction in our daily life.(此外,良好的沟通在我们的日常生活中是一种有趣的吸引力。)"在此处衔接恰当。所以选G。②设空处前面“We can make certain adequate preparations, especially some relative questions. (我们可以做一些充分的准备,特别是一些相关的问题。)”提到准备好相关的问题有利于良好的交流,后面又提到“We can ask some questions to show our politeness, respect and sincere care. (我们可以问一些表示我们的礼貌,尊重和关心的问题。)”。F项“人们认为被问好的问题是相当舒服的”。所以选F。③设空处前面提到“The most important part of communication is to listen.(沟通最重要的部分是倾听。)" 要我们学会倾听,设空处后面提到要给别人诉说的机会。因此设空处要表达我们的具体做法:认真倾听,换位思考。E项“我们应该关注别人所说,并且站在他们的角度思考。”所以选E。④通读该段内容可知,该段强调目光交流在对话中的作用。B项“眼睛是心灵的窗户”,符合语境。所以选B。⑤该空位于段末, 容易被误认为该段的总结。其实,该段的结构分为两部分:首先强调目光交流在对话中的作用,最后两句又提到不当对视的不必要。But 有导向作用,设空处前面提到不要进行不当对视,设空处当然要讲不当对视的影响。C项“会使他人感到不自在和不开心去继续进行谈话。”所以选C。17、答案：B18、答案：C19、答案：D20、答案：B21、答案：D22、答案：B23、答案：C24、答案：B25、答案：D26、答案：B27、答案：C28、答案：A29、答案：C30、答案：D31、答案：A32、答案：have examined；better；was kept；that/which；arranging；on；acknowledged；They；information；practical33、答案：Dear John,I’m glad to receive your letter asking for my advice on how to learn Chinese well.Here are a few suggestions. First, it helps to watch TV and read books, newspapers and magazines in Chinese whenever possible.Besides, it should be a good idea to learn and sing Chinese songs, because by doing so you’ll learn and remember Chinese words more easily. You can also make more Chinese friends. They will tell you a lot about China and help you learn Chinese.Try and write me in Chinese next time.Best wishesYours,Li Hua34、答案：As they stood there staring at each other, I started running toward the Easter egg. And then my mom rushed past me-running in her Easter dress toward the palm tree and the shiny blue egg. “Go, Mom!” I shouted. The other mom also dashed toward the shiny blue egg. In one last burst of speed, my mother reached the trunk of the tree, bent down, and grabbed the egg. “Wow! I got an egg!” I screamed in excitement, jumping up and down in celebration. My mom walked back to me with the Easter egg of her victory. She handed me the shiny blue egg. I held it up joyfully, like the other kids had done. I felt myself the luckiest guy in the world. I’ve forgotten what kind of candy was inside that plastic egg and what I did with that egg after our vacation ended. But I clearly remember my mom running as fast as she could toward that shiny blue egg. And I’ll always remember the big smile on her face-a reflection of her love.
