考查非谓语动词。句意:有一次我发现他和他的朋友们正在在看谁跳得最远!分析句式结构可知,此处用非谓语动词作宾补,又因为see和宾语之间是主动关系且动作正在进行,所以用现在分词作宾补。故填seeing。
【9题详解】
考查连词。句意:但当他感兴趣时,他就变了。作为一名教师,我相信每个人都有擅长的东西,重要的是要找出每个学生的特长。根据上文“Graham was very difficult. (格雷厄姆很难相处。)”和下文he changed可知,此处上下文之间是转折关系,所以用连词but,且位于句首的单词首字母要大写。故填But。

A Hug from a Teenage Boy
Fifteen years spent in the field of education have provided Nancy Marra with many treasured moments. One of the most endearing happened when she was teaching second grade.
That year, she decided to plan something special for the children: a Mother’s Day tea. After all the preparations were made for it, each child took home an invitation. Nancy was surprised and relieved to see that every mother was planning to attend. She even invited her own mother.
Finally, the day arrived. That afternoon, each child lined up at the classroom door expecting the arrival of his or her mom. As it got closer to starting time, Nancy looked around and her eyes quickly found Jimmy. His mother hadn’t shown up and he was looking upset.
Nancy took her mother by the hand and walked over to Jimmy. “Jimmy,” Nancy said, “I have a bit of a problem here and I was wondering if you could help out. Since I’m going to be really busy today, I was wondering if you could keep my mother company.”
Nancy’s mom and Jimmy sat at a table with two other mother-child pairs. Jimmy served Nancy’s mom her treats, presented her with the gift Nancy had made, and pulled out and pushed in her chair, just as they had practiced the day before. Whenever Nancy looked over, her mom and Jimmy were in deep conversation
Ten years later, Nancy was at a high school to take a senior class on a field trip, and there was Jimmy. On the way back, Nancy had the students complete an evaluation form of their trip. She collected and checked the forms one by one.
When she came to Jimmy’s evaluation page, he had written, “Remember our Mother’s Day tea we had in second grade, Mrs. Marra? I do! Thanks for all you did for me, and thank your mother, too.”
As they began unloading at the school, Jimmy made sure he was the last one to go. Nancy told him she really enjoyed what he had written. He looked rather embarrassed, mumbled (咕哝) his own thanks, and then turned to walk away. As the bus driver began pulling the bus away, Jimmy ran back and knocked on the bus door. He jumped back on board and gave Nancy a big hug. “Thanks again, Mrs. Marra. No one even knew my mom didn’t make it that day!”
She ended her workday with a hug from a teenage boy who had probably stopped hugging teachers years ago.
33. Why was Jimmy paired with Nancy’s mother?
A. Nancy was too busy to spend time with her.
B. Jimmy’s mother didn’t come to the event.
C. Nancy wanted Jimmy to get to know her.
D. Jimmy could get along well with her.
34. Where did Jimmy meet Nancy ten years later?
A. Near Jimmy’s high school.
B. At a Mother’s Day tea.
C. In Nancy’s classroom.
D. On a field trip.
35. How did Jimmy feel about what Nancy had done for him?
A. Upset. B. Embarrassed. C. Grateful. D. Satisfied.
36. Which of the following best presents the theme of the passage?
A. No act of kindness is ever wasted.
B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C. A mother’s hug lasts long after she lets go.
D. The best teacher must be the best performer.

You may think your dog likes you more than it does. Dog owners tend to overestimate the bond they have with their pets, which could have implications for preventing dogs from roaming (walking) far from home or attacking other animals.
“As caregivers, we need to develop better bonds with our dogs, not only for our own well-being and the dogs’ well-being, but also for nature,” says Lorena Saavedra-Aracena at the University of Magallanes, Chile.
Previous research has shown that unsterilized (未杀菌的) male dogs and undernourished dogs tend to roam longer distances, but it isn’t always the case. Saavedra-Aracena wondered if the dogs’ attachment to their caregivers also played a role, so she and her colleagues equipped 41 free-roaming pet dogs with GPS collars, tracking their journeys on Navarino Island in southern Chile for about 3 weeks.
Although most of the dogs stayed within a 200-meter radius (半径) of home, Some travelled up to 28 kilometres away. One even swam in a near-freezing canal for an hour while chasing native water birds, says Saavedra-Aracena. The dogs regularly brought home carcasses (动物的尸体) of native birds, and 80 per cent of them harassed other animals, mainly local cattle and sheep.
The researchers asked owners to complete a standard survey about the dog-human bond. Then, to get the “dog’s point of view”, they ran a behaviour test adapted from evaluations of children’s bonds with their parents.Each dog was reunited with its owner in a new place addressed by strangers, left alone in an unfamiliar room and given free access to a second, empty room. The team found that lower scores on the bonding test correlated with greater roaming distances.The owners of these dogs had assessed their pets’ attachment to them as much stronger than the bonding tests suggested, says Saavedra-Aracena. Is it possible that people place too much weight on their dog’s enthusiastic greetings as a sign of bonding, she says. Dogs that roamed the most often showed the most exuberant (energetic and excited) responses to seeing their owners again. They may have simply become accustomed to carrying out an “evolutionary” ritual (仪式) of bond re-establishment that is typical among pack members after long absences, says Saavedra-Aracena.
Relationships with other humans may have weakened the dog-owner bond in far-roaming dogs, she says. Neighbours sometimes give them food, and tourists hiking on the island offer walks and companionship, potentially reinforcing the roaming problem.
Outside opportunities for food, exercise and socialisation could all affect bonding, says Paul McGreevy at the University of New England in Australia. These aspects are critical to dog welfare and represent needs that must be met by its caregiver, both for building attachment and for controlling roaming behaviour. “If any one of those three key resources is lacking, then the dog can be justified in going elsewhere.” he says.
Although it has become less common to see roaming dogs in industrialised nations, they continue to roam freely in most societies, says Saavedra-Aracena. Even when owners restrain their pets, some dogs can escape their ropes.
“Unlike children who loosen bonds with their parents as they grow older, dogs can become more attached to their caregivers throughout their lives,” she says. “So, it’s never too late to work on building that bond, playing with your dog and just spending time with him, getting to know him better, just like you would with a human partner.”
37. From the research done by Saavedra-Aracena and her colleagues, we can learn that .
A. almost all the dogs were mistreated or didn’t have the ability to breed
B. the healthier the dog is, the farther it can escape
C. most of the dogs didn’t travel very far away
D. the researchers follow the wandering dogs in the flesh
38. The underlined word “harassed” probably means .
A. threatened B. generated C. sheltered D. avoided
39. From the passage, it can be inferred that .
A. food, sport and company are the three key factors when forming a bond with your dog
B. dog owners are more likely to consider their relationship with their dogs as close
C. the more energetically a dog responds to you, the closer the relationship you have with it is
D. dogs can become attracted by other people, which can result in them raveling farther than they otherwise would
40. The author writes the passage to .
A. inform us of the potential risks between dogs and their owners
B. remind dog owners to give more attention and time to their pet dogs
C. warn us to restrict the activities of dogs
D. present us with a piece of research that discuses how a relationship is formed between a dog and its owner
【答案】37. C 38. A 39. A 40. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了狗的主人往往会高估他们与宠物之间的联系,这可能会影响到防止狗离家去很远的地方游荡或攻击其他动物。Saavedra-Aracena和他的同事通过研究表明我们需要和我们的狗建立更好的关系,不仅仅是为了我们自己的幸福和狗的幸福,也是为了大自然。食物、运动和陪伴是我们与狗建立联系的三个关键因素。狗会在一生中变得更加依恋照顾它们的人,狗主人应给他们的宠物狗更多的关注和陪伴时间。
【37题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“Although most of the dogs stayed within a 200-meter radius (半径) of home, Some travelled up to 28 kilometres away.(尽管大多数狗停留在200米半径内,但有些狗还是行走了了23公里。)” 可知,大多数的狗都没有走得很远。故选C项。
【38题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段的“Dog owners tend to overestimate the bond they have with their pets, which could have implications for preventing dogs from roaming(walking) far from home or attacking other animals.(狗主人往往会高估他们与宠物之间的联系,这可能会影响到防止狗离家去很远的地方游荡(散步)或攻击其他动物。)”以及第四段的“One even swam in a near-freezing canal for an hour while chasing native water birds, says Saavedra-Aracena. The dogs regularly brought home carcasses (动物的尸体) of native birds, and 80 per cent of them harassed other animals, mainly local cattle and sheep.(Saavedra-Aracena说,其中一只甚至在近乎结冰的运河里游了一个小时,同时追逐当地的水鸟。这些狗会定期把当地鸟类的尸体带回家,其中80%会harassed其他动物,主要是当地的牛羊。)”可知,这些狗会袭击或者追赶其他动物,比如追逐水鸟,对其他动物具有威胁,harassed在此处意为“威胁(threatened)”。故选A项。
【39题详解】
推理判断题。根据第七段第一句“Outside opportunities for food, exercise and socialisation could all affect bonding, says Paul McGreevy at the University of New England in Australia.(澳大利亚新英格兰大学的保罗·麦克格里维说,外界的食物、锻炼和社交机会都可能影响亲密关系。)”以及第三句““If any one of those three key resources is lacking, then the dog can be justified in going elsewhere.” he says.(他说,“如果这三个关键资源中的任何一个缺乏,那么狗就有理由去其他地方。”)”可知,食物、运动和陪伴是与你的狗建立联系的三个关键因素。故选A项。
【40题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““Unlike children who loosen bonds with their parents as they grow older, dogs can become more attached to their caregivers throughout their lives,” she says. “So, it’s never too late to work on building that bond, playing with your dog and just spending time with him, getting to know him better, just like you would with a human partner.”(她说:“不像孩子,随着年龄的增长,会和父母疏远,狗会在一生中变得更加依恋照顾它们的人。所以,努力建立这种联系,和你的狗玩耍,花时间和它在一起,更好地了解它,就像和人类伴侣在一起一样,永远都不会晚。”)”可知,作者的写作意图是提醒狗主人给他们的宠物狗更多的关注和时间。故选B项。
第二节阅读回答问题(每小题3分)
阅读下面的短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
A few years ago, I started to notice big shifts in teens’ behavior. Around 2014, teens started to spend their time much differently from the generations before. These teens and young adults all have one thing in common: Their childhood or adolescence coincided with the rise of the smart phone. For this reason, I call them iGeneration.
What makes iGen different? Growing up with a smartphone has affected nearly every aspect of their lives. They spend so much time on the Internet, texting friends and on social media that they have less leisure time for everything else. Whether it’s going to parties, shopping at the mall, or watching movies, iGen teens are participating in these social activities at a significantly low rate.
Some parents might worry about their teens spending so much time on their phones because it differs from the way they spent their own adolescence. But it is not just different-in many ways, it’s actually worse. Spending less time with friends means less time to develop social skills. A 2016 study found that sixth graders who spent just five days at a camp without using screens ended the time better at reading emotions on others’ faces, suggesting that iGen’s screen-filled lives might cause their social skills to shrink.
In addition, in the annual Monitoring the Future survey, the percentage of iGen teens who read a non required book every day dropped from 60 percent in 1980 to only 16 percent in 2016. Perhaps as a result, average SAT critical reading scores have dropped 14 points since 2010.
iGen shows another break with the previous generations: Depression anxiety, and loneliness have shot upward with happiness declining. The teen suicide rate increased by more than 50 percent, as did the number of teens with clinical-level depression.
Parents used to worry about their teens spending too much time with their friends-they were a distraction, a bad influence, a waste of time. But it might be just what iGen needs now.
41. How are iGen teens different from the generations before?
_________________________________________________________
42. What is another break with the previous generation does iGen show?

43. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.

44. Can you offer some suggestions for iGen teens? (about 40 words)

【答案】41. They spend their adolescence with smartphones.
42. Depression, anxiety, and loneliness have shot upward with happiness declining.
43. Teen’s friends were regarded as a distraction, a bad influence, and a waste of time by most parents, so it’s not suggested that teens spend time with their friends. But it might be just what iGen needs now.

【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要讲述电子产品对新一代青少年的影响。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Their childhood or adolescence coincided with the rise of the smart phone. (他们的童年或青春期与智能手机的兴起不谋而合。)”和第二段“Growing up with a smartphone has affected nearly every aspect of their lives. They spend so much time on the Internet, texting friends and on social media that they have less leisure time for everything else. Whether it’s going to parties, shopping at the mall, or watching movies, iGen teens are participating in these social activities at a significantly low rate.(伴随着智能手机长大几乎影响了他们生活的方方面面。他们花了太多时间在互联网上、给朋友发短信和社交媒体上,所以他们很少有空闲时间做其他事情。无论是参加派对、在商场购物还是看电影,iGen青少年参与这些社交活动的比率都非常低。)”可知,电子一代青少年时期和智能手机关系很紧密。故答案为They spend their adolescence with smartphones.
【42题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“iGen shows another break with the previous generations: Depression, anxiety, and loneliness have shot upward with happiness declining. (iGen展示了与前几代人的另一点决裂:抑郁、焦虑和孤独随着幸福感的下降而激增。)”可知,电子一代展示了与前几代人的另一点决裂:抑郁、焦虑和孤独随着幸福感的下降而激增。故答案为Depression, anxiety, and loneliness have shot upward with happiness declining.
【43题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Parents used to worry about their teens spending too much time with their friends-they were a distraction, a bad influence, a waste of time. But it might be just what iGen needs now. (父母过去常常担心他们的青少年花太多时间和朋友在一起——这会分散注意力,造成不良影响,浪费时间。但这可能正是电子一代现在所需要的。)”可知,母过去常常担心他们的青少年花太多时间和朋友在一起,因为这会分散他们的注意力,造成不良影响,浪费时间,所以在过去,青少年花太多时间和朋友在一起是不被允许的。但这可能正是电子一代现在所需要的。故答案为Teen’s friends were regarded as a distraction, a bad influence, and a waste of time by most parents, so it’s not suggested that
it was
teens spend time with their friends. But it might be just what iGen needs now.
【44题详解】
本题是开放性试题。根据第二段“Growing up with a smartphone has affected nearly every aspect of their lives. They spend so much time on the Internet, texting friends and on social media that they have less leisure time for everything else. Whether it’s going to parties, shopping at the mall, or watching movies, iGen teens are participating in these social activities at a significantly low rate.(伴随着智能手机长大几乎影响了他们生活的方方面面。他们花了太多时间在互联网上、给朋友发短信和社交媒体上,所以他们很少有空闲时间做其他事情。无论是参加派对、在商场购物还是看电影,iGen青少年参与这些社交活动的比率都非常低。)”和第五段“iGen shows another break with the previous generations: Depression, anxiety, and loneliness have shot upward with happiness declining.

(iGen展示了与前几代人的另一点决裂:抑郁、焦虑和孤独随着幸福感的下降而激增。青少年自杀率增加了50%以上,患有临床抑郁症的青少年人数也增加了50%。)”可知,现在的青少年花太多时间在智能手机上而导致很多问题的出现,比如没有时间锻炼身体,不交朋友,变得抑郁、焦虑和孤独,最终导致身体健康出现问题。所以,建议定期进行体育锻炼,缓解压力。保持健康才是我们成功的关键。故答案为It is recommended that physical exercise, an excellent way of relieving pressure, be scheduled regularly. Keeping healthy is key to our success.
