【11题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在那里，我和一个叫保罗的男孩成为了朋友，他是NBA的超级球迷。分析句子，句中made为谓语动词，设空处使用非谓语与动词，此处boy与name之间是被动关系，故使用过去分词作后置定语。故填named。
【12题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：保罗最喜欢的球员是夏洛特黄蜂队的泰隆·博格斯。分析句子，设空处引导的是非限制性定语从句，引导词在从句中作主语，指代前文的人，用who。故填who。
【13题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：博格斯只有1.6米高，这使他成为NBA历史上最矮的球员。分析句子，设空处引导的是非限制性定语从句，引导词在从句中作主语，指代前文“格斯只有1.6米高”的事实，用which。故填which。

19. greater
20. activities
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。中国农村网民站全部网民数量的百分之三十，互联网对于脱贫起了非常大的作用。
【17题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：截至6月，中国农村地区约有2.85亿网民，占全国网民总数的30%以上。分析句子成分可知，谓语动词是had，故空处需要填非谓语的形式；逻辑主语285 million Internet users living in rural areas和account是主谓关系，故需要用现在分词做主语。故填accounting。
【18题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：在过去的几个月里，农村互联网用户的数量增长了3000多万。时间状语in the last few months是现在完成时的标志词，由此可知，空处需要用现在完成时have/has done；The number of表示“……的数量”作主语时，谓语动词用单数。故填has grown。
【19题详解】
考查形容词的比较级。句意：如今，互联网在国家扶贫工作中扮演着比以往更重要的角色。空后有比较级标志词than，故空处需要填提示词great的比较级形式greater形容role。故填greater。
【20题详解】
考查名词。句意：今年上半年，中国有超过1000万场直播营销活动，吸引了超过500亿次观看。提示词activity为可数名词，因前有10 million“一千万”修饰，故需要用复数形式。故填activities。

One day, Lisa Holman told her family she would be out that night visiting her friend, only about half an hour’s drive from her house. So it was not alarming as the night grew on and she did not arrive home. As 11 pm passed, her family began to worry. They called her but did not get any answer. They then reached out to Lisa’s best friend, who said Lisa had left to drive home at 9 that night.
The family thought about calling the police that evening but the police typically don’t define a person missing unless there is no contact for 24 hours. The next morning there was still no sign of Lisa. All the family could do was sit home and wait. Lisa’s son decided to drive along Lisa’s route and carefully look for her. He found Lisa’s car had crashed into a tree. What’s worse, there was no sign of Lisa at all.
The family called the police. The police began their search. But due to the heavy rain, the search team was called back. The family was very disappointed but still hopeful and continued the search. 700 feet from Lisa’s car, they finally found Lisa under a rock.
After a few days in hospital, Lisa recovered. She explained that she passed out after her car slid off the road in the rain. After she came to herself, Lisa managed to climb out of the car. While walking to find help, Lisa was exhausted and unable to figure out the direction. So she couldn’t walk on and climbed under a rock as it started raining again. Scared as she was, she turned to her faith in hopes of living to see her son again.
24. When should Lisa arrive home after visiting her friend?
A. About 9 pm. B. About9:30pm. C. About 11pm. D. The next morning.
25. Why did the family give up calling the police that night?
A. Lisa stayed with her best friend.
B. The rocks had blocked all the roads up.
C. The police usually refused to come at night.
D. They had been out of touch with Lisa for less than a day.
26. Why was Lisa unable to go home by herself?
A. She was lost. B. She was injured.
C. She was locked in her car. D. She was caught by heavy rain.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章记叙的是Lisa到朋友家拜访，回程路上车在雨中滑出路面后，她晕了过去，最后她的家人和警方经过不懈努力找到了她。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“One day, Lisa Holman told her family she would be out that night visiting her friend, only about half an hour drive from her house.(有一天，Lisa Holman告诉家人，她当晚要出去拜访朋友，她家离朋友家只有大约半小时的车程。)”可知Lisa家与朋友家车程约半小时；结合第一段最后一句“They then reached out to Lisa’s friend, who said Lisa had left to drive home at 9 that night.(然后他们联系了Lisa的朋友，她说Lisa那天晚上9点开车回家了。)”可知Lisa晚上9点离开朋友家，所以她本应该在九点半到家。故选B项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The family thought about calling the police that evening but the police typically don't define a person missing unless there is no contact for 24 hours.(当晚他们想报警，但警方通常不会认定一个人失踪，除非24小时内没有联系。)”由此可知24小时内没有联系，警方不会认定失踪处理，所以他们放弃了报警是因为Lisa失踪还不足一天。故选D项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“She explained that she passed out after her car slid off the road in the rain. After she came to herself, Lisa managed to climb out of the car. While walking to find help, Lisa was exhausted and unable to figure out the direction.(她解释说，她的车在雨中滑出路面后，她晕了过去。Lisa苏醒过来后，设法从车里爬了出来。走着去找人救命的时候，Lisa已经筋疲力尽，连方向都不知道了。)”可知Lisa无法自己回家是因为她迷路了。故选A项。
C
No animals have experienced a greater appearance change in the past few decades than the nonavian(非鸟类的)dinosaurs. We used to think they had nothing but boring gray and brown scales but they are now believed to have had feathers in bright colors and patterns. So what colors were the dinosaurs? And how do we know?
One scientist we have to thank for the answers to both questions is Jakob Vinther. Ever since the first fossilized(成为化石的)dinosaur feathers were reported in 1996, scientists had noticed round tiny structures within them—structures that many had assumed were fossilized bacteria.
But as a doctoral student studying a completely different animal, Vinther realized that these structures might be something more. “I was looking at fossilized ink in a squid-like(像乌贼的)animal. It was remarkably well preserved,”Vinther said. “You can take ink from a squid you bought down at the fish market, put it under a microscope, and see perfect little round balls. And then when you take fossilized ink, it looks exactly the same.” Those balls are melanosomes(黑素体)that color hair, skin, feathers and eyes of animals. These round structures turned out to be the same ones being mistaken for bacteria in dinosaur feathers.
Scientists had largely believed that melanosomes couldn’t survive the fossilization process, but discoveries have shown not only that they survive but that they can tell us the actual colors of extinct animals. That’s because they come not only in “perfect little round balls” but also in many different shapes, each of which produces a different color.
“If you look at a person with black hair or a bird with black feathers, those melanosomes are sausage-shaped,” Vinther said. “If you have orange-brown hair, they’ re shaped like little meatballs. So basically, you just look for sausages and meatballs, and then you can actually put colors on extinct animals.” Once you know the shape of the melanosomes in a fossil, you can learn all sorts of things about the animal.
27. What is the new discovery about nonavian dinosaurs?
A. They had gray and brown scales. B. They had colorful patterned feathers.
C. They had interesting behavior patterns D. They had various patterns on their scales.
28. The round tiny structures within fossils once were mistaken for________.
A. Fossilized bacteria B. Dinosaurs’ scales C. Fossilized ink D. Melanosomes
29. How did Jakob Vinther make his discovery?
A. By working with fishermen.
B. By studying previous research.
C. By coloring a squid-like animal.
D. By comparing a squid’s ink and fossilized ink.
30. Why are sausages and meatballs mentioned in the last paragraph?
A To explain the shape of fossilized bacteria.
B. To show how melanosomes form in animals.
C. To explain what decides the colors of animals.
D. To show how melanosomes survive the fossilization process.
【答案】27. B 28. A 29. D 30. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要讲述了黑素体的相关内容。科学家们基本认为黑素体没办法在石化过程中存活下来，但是进一步研究表明，它不仅可以存活，而且能告诉我们灭绝物种的真实颜色。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一自然段“We used to think they had nothing but boring gray and brown scales but they are now believed to have had feathers in bright colors and patterns.”（我们过去认为它们只有单调的灰色和棕色鳞片，但现在人们认为它们的羽毛有明亮的颜色和图案。）可知，最新的发现是非鸟类恐龙有着颜色鲜艳，图案丰富的羽毛。故选B项。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二自然段最后一句中“scientists had noticed round tiny structures within them—structures that many had assumed were fossilized bacteria.”（科学家们已经注意到它们内部的微小结构——许多人认为这些结构是细菌化石。）可知，曾经他们误以为这些结构是细菌化石。故选A项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三自然段中“You can take ink from a squid you bought down at the fish market, put it under a microscope, and see perfect little round balls. And then when you take fossilized ink, it looks exactly the same.”（你可以从你在鱼市买的乌贼上取墨水，放在显微镜下，看到完美的小圆球。当你用化石墨水时，它看起来完全一样。）可知，Vinther的发现是通过对比乌贼的墨水和化石墨水完成的。故选D项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一自然段“So basically, you just look for sausages and meatballs, and then you can actually put colors on extinct animals.”（所以基本上，你只需要找到香肠和肉丸，然后你就可以给灭绝动物涂上颜色。）可知作者认为只要找到“香肠”和“肉丸”，就能知道灭绝动物的真实颜色，而这两个例子正是不同形状的黑素体，也正是不同形状的黑素体决定着不同的颜色，所以作者提到两者的原因是为了解释是什么决定着动物的颜色。故选C项。
D
Lately, I’ve been thinking about my school life in the 1990s, when in class we were encouraged to express ourselves through creative writing, public speaking or perhaps taking part in some form of drama. And as we shared our creativity we were improving our communication skills. The emphasis here was how best to convey our thoughts as clearly as possible. Yet it seemed that all spoken word exercises were being taught only from the speaker’s point of view, with little or no time spent teaching the art of listening.
And that was a missed opportunity because young children are remarkable listeners. They take in words, ideas and speech patterns, quite often without our awareness. Yet somewhere along the way, we teach them to stop listening. Perhaps they would benefit from lessons in selective silence, concentration, while focusing on knowing how to process all incoming information. Sadly, to the best of my knowledge, no such programs are offered.
We seem to spend less time actually listening to one another. One reason might be the fact that we have become a much more visual society as a result of exposure to television, the Internet and all manner of hand-held wireless devices. We tend to be more self-absorbed and primarily focused on hearing ourselves talk rather than listening to others.
I attended a small family gathering a few years ago and almost everyone, except my 86-year-old aunt, was constantly texting or checking email on their iPhone. It made me wonder why we had bothered to get together in the first place as we were paying so little attention to one another. We could just as easily have had an online get-together.
Listening is indeed a rare and special talent, and one that takes a lot of practice. But once you have gotten comfortable with the technique, you might find your next face-to-face talk a whole lot more meaningful. Simply listening for nuances(细微差别)in conversation will provide so much more context and substance for the words you are hearing. Remember, in order to be interesting, you must first be interested. And in conversation, you are supposed to be listening, not waiting to talk.
31. What is the author’s attitude toward the class in the 1990s?
A. Objective. B. Tolerant. C. Favorable. D. Prejudiced.
32. What might be a reason that makes us bad listeners according to the author?
A. We have less time to communicate.
B. We have a sense of self-importance.
C. The rapid development of technology.
D. The lack of care and understanding for others.
33. What can we learn about the author’s family gathering a few years ago?
A. His aunt wasn’t good at listening.
B. His aunt didn’t like attending family gatherings.
C. His family members were engaged in hot discussions.
D. His family members showed little interest in one another.
34. What is the purpose of the last paragraph?
A. To lead a discussion. B. To give a suggestion.
C. To provide a warning. D. To make a comparison.
【答案】31. A 32. C 33. D 34. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了技术的发展导致我们花在真正倾听对方的时间似乎变少了这一问题，解释了其后背的原因以及倾听他人的建议。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Lately, I’ve been thinking about my school life in the 1990s, when in class we were encouraged to express ourselves through creative writing, public speaking or perhaps taking part in some form of drama. And as we shared our creativity we were improving our communication skills. The emphasis here was how best to convey our thoughts as clearly as possible. Yet it seemed that all spoken word exercises were being taught only from the speaker’s point of view, with little or no time spent teaching the art of listening.(最近，我一直在回想我在20世纪90年代的学校生活，当时我们在课堂上被鼓励通过创造性写作、公开演讲或参加某种形式的戏剧来表达自己。当我们分享我们的创造力时，我们提高了我们的沟通技巧。这里的重点是如何尽可能清楚地表达我们的想法。然而，似乎所有的口语练习都只是从说话者的角度进行教学，很少或根本没有花时间教授倾听的艺术。)”可推知，第一段提到了英语课的好处以及缺点，即作者对20世纪90年代英语课的态度是客观的。故选A。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“There is no question that we are a nation of bad listeners. One reason might be the fact that we have become a much more visual society as result of exposure to television, the Internet and all manner of hand-held wireless devices.(毫无疑问，我们的国家都是糟糕的听众。其中一个原因可能是，由于电视、互联网和各种手持无线设备的使用，我们的社会变得更加视觉化)”可知，作者认为，是技术的快速发展让我们成为糟糕的倾听者。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“I attended a small family gathering a few years ago and almost everyone except my 86-year-old aunt was constantly texting or checking email on their iPhone. It made me wonder why we had bothered get together in the first place as we were paying so little attention to one another.(几年前，我参加了一个小型家庭聚会，除了我86岁的姑姑，几乎所有人都在不停地用iPhone发短信或查看电子邮件。这让我很好奇，我们当初为什么要在一起，因为我们对彼此的关注如此之少)”可知，在几年前的家庭聚会中，作者的家人对彼此都不感兴趣。故选D。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Remember, in order to be interesting, you must first be interested. And in conversation, you are supposed to be listening, not waiting to talk.( 记住，要想做个有趣的人，你首先得有兴趣。在谈话中，你应该倾听，而不是等着说话。)”可推知，最后一段的目的针对于如何做一个有趣的人最后一段给出了建议。故最后一段的目的是给建议。故选B。

Do you know what a resolution is? ____35____ Most of the time, we make promises to other people—“Mom, I promise I’m going to tidy my room when I get back from school”.
However, promises you make to yourself are resolutions, and the most common kind is New Year’s resolutions. The start of the year is often a time for making resolutions. When we make resolutions at the beginning of the year, we hope that we are going to improve our lives. ____36____ This helps them to remember their resolutions. Others tell their family and friends about their wishes and plans.
There are different kinds of resolutions. Some are about physical health. For example, some people promise themselves they are going to start an exercise program or eat less fast food. ____37____ These are about making yourself a better person. Some people might say they are going to take up a hobby like painting or taking photos, or learn to play the guitar. Some resolutions have to do with better planning, like making a weekly plan for schoolwork. ____38____
Although there are differences, most resolutions have one thing in common. People hardly ever keep them! There are good reasons for this. Sometimes the resolutions may be too difficult to keep. Sometimes people just forget about them. For this reason, some people say the best resolution is to have no resolutions! ____39____
A. It’s a kind of promise.
B. How about you—will you make any next year?
C. Many resolutions have to do with self-improvement.
D. For example, a student may have to find more time to study.
E. Do you know how to stick to your resolution as long as possible?
F. A New Year’s resolution is the goal that is set at the start of a new year.

第三部分书面表达(共两节，32分)
第一节：阅读表达(共4小题;第1、2题各2分，第3题3分，第4题5分，共12分)
阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题。
When I was in Grade 4, I got my first diary as a present from my mother. It made me feel very important because it was a precious gift to me in the year when a printed diary was rare. During the first week of my life as a diary owner, I kept looking at it. My heart filling with pride. In the second week, I suddenly felt nervous. I had not written a single word in the diary. And now each page seemed to be looking at me in sorrow for the way it was being gored (弄褶皱), so I decided to keep an account of how I spent the day at school.
I kept my promise to the diary that every day after coming back from school, I would take out the diary, open the page dated for that day and write about what happened. But a strange thing happened — each page looked dull, instead of looking as if it came straight out of a famous writer’s book.
I recently read a 4000-year-old account of a young boy’s day in school. It surrounded almost the same thing as mine! I was shocked. This boy was from Summer (苏美尔). The Sumerians, as they were called, invented a lot of things. They constructed the first cities. They stuck to an idea that children must go to a place like school for education.
What was the account of the boy’s day in school like? Well almost like mine but 4,000 years ago! I read it in a book called The Mammoth Book of How it Happened, by Jon E. Lewis. In a fascinating manner, he has put the important and usual things together into one collection, eye-witness accounts of moments in history, also eventful and ordinary.
The book told me that for schoolchildren anywhere in the world and probably at any time in history, school has always meant the same. Perhaps writing diaries too.
40. What did the author do with his first diary during the first week?
________________
41. Who is Jon E. Lewis?

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者四年级得到了一本日记本，每天都会记日记，但是渐渐觉得枯燥乏味。直到作者读到了一本4000年前的书，讲述了一个小男孩在学校的一天。这本书告诉作者，对于世界上任何地方的学生，可能在历史上任何时候，学校的意义都是相同的，写日记也是如此。
【40题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“During the first week of my life as a diary owner, I kept looking at it. My heart filling with pride. In the second week, I suddenly felt nervous. I had not written a single word in the diary.(在我作为日记本主人的第一个星期里，我一直看着它。我的内心充满了自豪。第二周，我突然感到紧张。我在日记里一个字也没写)”可知，在第一个星期里，作者一直自豪地看着日记本，但是没有写任何东西。故答案为The author looked at the diary proudly, but did not write anything.

考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中“I read it in a book called The Mammoth Book of How it Happened, by Jon E. Lewis.(我在一本叫The Mammoth Book of How it Happened的书中读到这个故事，作者是Jon E. Lewis)”可知，Jon E. Lewis是The Mammoth Book of How it Happened一书的作者。故答案为He is the author of The Mammoth Book of How It Happened.
【42题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第三段中“I recently read a 4000-year-old account of a young boy’s day in school. It surrounded almost the same thing as mine! I was shocked.(我最近读了一本4000年前的书，讲述一个小男孩在学校的一天。它周围的东西几乎和我的一样！我很震惊)”可知，当作者读到一本4000年前的小男孩一天的日记时感到震惊，而不是感到无聊，因为日记里的事情几乎和他的一样。故答案为The author felt dull when he read a 4000-year-old account of a young boy’s day, because the diary surrounded almost the same thing as his. Because the author was shocked.
【43题详解】
考查开放性题目。言之有理，积极向上，注意词数限制。题干：你觉得写日记怎么样？可回答：我认为写日记是一个好习惯。它能让我想起那些过去的记忆。故答案为I think that writing dairies is a good habit. Because it can remind me of those old memories.
