For some years,my mother worked for a charity as President and Secretary.Selling raffle tickets(兑奖券) was her main means of bringing in the charity’s muchneeded funds.We girls would accompany her,selling tickets with great success.My father made and donated beautiful wooden toys,jewellery boxes and other lovely items as prizes.
Now my sister was always coming up with “good ideas”,most of which didn’t work out to plan.But that didn’t deter her.She had many just waiting to be tested.When she was eight and I was just five,we had a wonderful idea for a business adventure.We decided we would sell raffle tickets for charity,and that charity was us!
So one afternoon,we told our mother we were going to play in the park with our cousins as we did most days after school.But instead,we walked around the streets armed with a raffle book,a pen and a large cloth bag to carry the money.
We’d accompanied our mother many times when she sold tickets,so people were familiar with us when we appeared at their doors.Despite the blank looks they received when asking about the prizes on offer,they were very generous.Although there were no actual prizes,our mother’s previous track record enabled us to sell nearly the whole book of raffle tickets.
Like a little pair of lottery(彩票) winners,we walked home and proudly showed off our takings.But our enjoyment of this sudden wealth was shortlived,and our plans for spending it quickly failed.Our angry mother took us back to every ticket buyer,making us apologise and give the money back.Thankfully,our sweet neighbours didn’t make a big deal of our “clever” misbehavior and thus my mother’s
fundraising career could continue safely.We were taught a good lesson by our mother that day.Also I remember my sister’s entrepreneurial(企业家的) spirit dried up a bit after that.

这是一篇记叙文。文章主要描述了作者和妹妹自以为的“小聪明式”售卖慈善奖券的方式受到了母亲的责备,并得到了教训:要以诚信待人。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段末句:My father made and donated beautiful wooden toys,jewellery boxes and other lovely items as prizes.(我父亲制作并捐赠了漂亮的木制玩具、首饰盒和其他可爱的物品作为奖品。)可知,作者的父亲准备奖品。故选A项。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在句子由but连接,表转折,之前的句子:Now my sister was always coming up with “good ideas”,most of which didn’t work out to plan.(现在我妹妹总是能想出“好主意”,但大多数都没有按计划实现。)以及后一句:She had many just waiting to be tested.(她有很多只是等待测试。)可知,作者的妹妹并没有受到计划失败的打击。因此划线单词deter可以理解为discourage(使气馁),故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段:We’d accompanied our mother many times when she sold tickets,so people were familiar with us when we appeared at their doors.Despite the blank looks they received when asking about the prizes on offer,they were very generous.Although there were no actual prizes,our mother’s previous track record enabled us to sell nearly the whole book of raffle tickets.(妈妈卖票的时候,我们陪了她很多次,所以当我们出现在门口时,大家都很熟悉我们。尽管在询问奖品时他们得到的只是茫然的表情,但他们非常慷慨。虽然没有真正的奖品,但我们母亲之前的记录使我们几乎卖出了整本书的奖券。)可知,作者母亲的信用帮助他们卖出了整本书的奖券。选项D They took advantage of people’s trust in their mother.(他们利用人们对他们母亲的信任。)属于合理推断。故选D项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章末段:Thankfully,our sweet neighbours didn’t make a big deal of our “clever” misbehavior and thus my mother’s fundraising career could continue safely. We were taught a good lesson by our mother that day.( 值得庆幸的是,我们可爱的邻居并没有把我们的“聪明”行为当回事,因此我母亲的筹款事业可以安全地继续下去。那天妈妈给了我们一个很好的教训。)可知,作者的母亲给与了他们的“小聪明”教训。他们小聪明就是上文提及的“Despite the blank looks they received when asking about the prizes on offer,they were very generous.Although there were no actual prizes…(尽管在询问奖品时他们得到的只是茫然的表情,但他们非常慷慨。虽然没有真正的奖品……)。因此可知,作者和妹妹得到的教训是要有诚信。故选A项。
C
Insects could disappear within a century at current rate of decline, says Global Review.
The world’ s insects are moving quickly down the path to dying out, indicating a disastrous collapse(崩溃)of nature’ s ecosystems is likely to happen, according to the first global scientific review. More than 40% of insect species are declining and a third are endangered, the analysis found. The rate of extinction(灭绝)is eight times faster than that of mammals, birds and reptiles.
“It should be of huge concern to all of us, for insects are at the heart of every food web—they pollinate(授粉) the large majority of plant species, keep the soil healthy, recycle nutrients, control pests, and much more. Love them or hate them, we humans cannot survive without insects,” said Prof Dave Goulson at the University of Sussex in the UK.
The analysis, published in the journal Biological Conservation, says intensive agriculture is the main driver of the declines, particularly the heavy use of pesticides(杀虫剂). Urbanisation and climate change are also significant factors.
One of the biggest impacts of insect loss is on the many birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish that eat insects. A small number of adaptable species are increasing in number, but not nearly enough to outweigh the big losses.
Matt Shardlow, at the conservation charity Buglife, said, “It is alarming to see this collation(整理) of evidence that shows the state of the world’ s insect populations. It is increasingly obvious that the planet’ s ecology is breaking and there is a need for an intense and global effort to stop and reverse(反转)these terrible trends.”
8. What did Prof Dave stress in his speech?
A. Insects are vital to food webs.
B. Not all people love insects.
C. Scientists are concerned about insect loss.
D. Humans need certain conditions for survival.
9. Which of the following is most influenced by insect loss?
A. Animals that feed on insects. B. Adaptable animal species.
C. Pests that are used to pesticides. D. Crops produced by intensive agriculture.
10. How did Matt Shardlow sound when talking about the state of insect loss?
A. Relaxed. B. Uncaring.
C. Humorous. D. Worried.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. The extinction rate of insects gets slowed down.
B. The failure of nature’ s ecosystems can be avoided.
C Sharp drops in insect numbers endanger ecosystems.
D. Insect extinction harms the diversity of animal species.
【答案】8. A 9. A 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要描述了昆虫数量的下降对于生态系统的影响。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段内容:“It should be of huge concern to all of us, for insects are at the heart of every food web—they pollinate(授粉) the large majority of plant species, keep the soil healthy, recycle nutrients, control pests, and much more. Love them or hate them, we humans cannot survive without insects,” said Prof Dave Goulson at the University of Sussex in the UK.(“这应该引起我们所有人的极大关注,因为昆虫是每一个食物网的核心——它们为绝大多数植物物种授粉,保持土壤健康,循环利用营养,控制害虫,等等。英国苏塞克斯大学的戴夫·古尔森教授说:“不管你喜欢还是讨厌昆虫,没有昆虫我们人类无法生存。”)可知,昆虫对于食物链来说是很重要的。故选A项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第五段第1句:One of the biggest impacts of insect loss is on the many birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish that eat insects.(昆虫消失的最大影响之一是许多以昆虫为食的鸟类、爬行动物、两栖动物和鱼类。)可知,受昆虫消失影响最大的是以昆虫为食的动物。故选A项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章末段内容:Matt Shardlow, at the conservation charity Buglife, said, “It is alarming to see this collation of evidence that shows the state of the world’ s insect populations. It is increasingly obvious that the planet’ s ecology is breaking and there is a need for an intense and global effort to stop and reverse these terrible trends.”(环保慈善机构Buglife的马特·夏德洛说:“这些证据显示了世界昆虫种群的现状,这是令人震惊的。越来越明显的是,地球的生态正在破坏,需要全球共同努力来阻止和扭转这些可怕的趋势。”)可知,Matt Shardlow 对于昆虫消失这一事件表示担忧。故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。文章体裁为说明文。结构为分分结构。其中第一段和第二段主要围绕昆虫物种较快的下降速度进行描述。第三段分析了昆虫物种在食物链中的重要性。第四段分析了消失的原因,第五段分析了其消失造成的影响,第六段讲述了担忧。总结各段主旨可知,文章主要描述了昆虫消失对于生态系统的影响。选项C. Sharp drops in insect numbers endanger ecosystems.贴合主旨。故选C项。
【点睛】阅读理解之—态度推理判断
识别态度有以下方法:找文中带有感情色彩的名词、动词、形容词、副词;根据作者举的例子判断等。比如文章第3小题:
3. How did Matt Shardlow sound when talking about the state of insect loss?
A. Relaxed. B. Uncaring.
C. Humorous. D. Worried
在涉及本题的文段中:Matt Shardlow, at the conservation charity Buglife, said, “It is alarming to see this collation of evidence that shows the state of the world’ s insect populations. It is increasingly obvious that the planet’ s ecology is breaking and there is a need for an intense and global effort to stop and reverse these terrible trends.”可知,alarming,intense,terrible 等贬义词反复出现,可见Matt Shardlow 对此事的担忧。因此D项:Worried 为其对这件事的态度。

If you follow any people who like traveling on Instagram,you’ve probably noticed they’ve posted amazing photos from Portugal in the last few years,especially during peak summer months.Mario Fernandes,a cocreator and the editor of GoLisbon said he had seen increased interest in traveling to Portugal in the past five years,particularly in the last two or three.Cindy Goldberger,a travel adviser for Hiatus,an agency in Brooklyn,New York,said that she noticed an increase in Portugal trips about three years ago and that she gets more requests to plan people’s visits there every year.According to Reuters,the number of foreign tourists visiting Portugal hit a record for 2017,and in the same year the country won the world’s leading destination at the World Travel Awards.
Fernandes suggested it’s because Portugal is safe and more affordable than many other Western European countries.The country’s frequent sunshine is also attractive to many visitors.The Algarve,the southernmost area of Portugal,is home to “some of Europe’s most beautiful beaches”,according to Fernandes.Goldberger noted that many airlines have offered better routes to the country in recent years.She’s also a fan of the new hotels that have opened,including farms that have become hotels.
Eric Hrubant,the president of Cire Travel,noted that there is another reason.“It’s a small country,yet you have cities with rich history,culture and food,as well as a lot of beach and golfing options,” he said.“In five to ten days,you can have a vacation or honeymoon that caters to(满足) all of your senses and desires.”
Hrubant pointed out that celebrities(名人) like Madonna and newlyweds Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander have moved to Portugal,which has put the country on more people’s radar(受到更多人的关注).
So you don’t know where to go for a vacation this summer?Now you can make a better decision

这是一篇应用文。文章主要讲述了葡萄牙近几年吸引了越来越多的游客,并分析了其吸引游客的原因,以鼓励更多的人去往葡萄牙。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第1句:If you follow any people who like traveling on Instagram,you’ve probably noticed they’ve posted amazing photos from Portugal in the last few years,especially during peak summer months(如果你关注任何一个喜欢在Instagram上旅行的人,你可能会注意到他们在过去几年里发布了来自葡萄牙的令人惊叹的照片,尤其是在夏天的高峰月份)可知,本段主要描述了去葡萄牙旅行的人数有所增加。同时引用了.Mario Fernandes,a cocreator and the editor of GoLisbon(马里奥·费尔南德斯(Mario Fernandes)是《哥利斯本》的联合创始人和编辑),Cindy Goldberger,a travel adviser(辛迪·戈德伯格(Cindy Goldberger)是一名旅行顾问)的评论以及Reuters(路透社)的报道作为例证。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容:Goldberger noted that many airlines have offered better routes to the country in recent years(戈德伯格指出,许多航空公司近年来提供了更好的飞往该国的航线。)可知,交通便利是大家选择葡萄牙的原因。故选D项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段内容:Hrubant pointed out that celebrities like Madonna and newlyweds Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander have moved to Portugal,which has put the country on more people’s radar(Hrubant指出,像麦当娜、新婚夫妇迈克尔·法斯宾德和艾丽西亚·维坎德这样的名人已经搬到了葡萄牙,这使得这个国家受到了更多人的关注)。 可知,麦当娜等名人搬到葡萄牙居住给葡萄牙带来了名人效应。故选B项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章末段内容:So you don’t know where to go for a vacation this summer?Now you can make a better decision.(所以你不知道今年夏天去哪里度假?现在你可以做一个更好的决定了。)可知,作者写这篇文章的目的应是推荐葡萄牙作为度假地点给读者。故选A项。
【点睛】阅读理解技巧之写作目的巧知道
写作目的往往在于首段和末段。因此在做题时,需要仔细阅读,体会作者的写作目的。比如文章第4小题:
4. What’s the author’s main purpose in writing the text?
A. To encourage people to visit Portugal. B. To recommend some Portuguese trips.
C. To tell some basic facts about Portugal. D. To explain why Portugal has become famous.
通过题干可知,本题询问作者写作目的。在做此道题目时,文章已经阅读完毕,体裁已经知晓为应用文。文章在首段只是提出了话题中心—葡萄牙旅游吸引了更多游客。因此判断末段为目的段:So you don’t know where to go for a vacation this summer?Now you can make a better decision.。通过分析可知,作者在末段提出了葡萄牙作为旅游地点之一的建议,不难看出,此为写作目的。因此A项:To encourage people to visit Portugal.为正确答案。

【40题详解】
考查名词辨析。A.history历史 ;B.motto箴言; C.patterns模式; D.教训。句中的I have learned from you是一个定语从句,空处就是它所修饰的先行词,从句中的谓语动词learned缺少宾语,空处就是它的宾语,这样就是learnfrom you,从四个选项中找一个词填到这个省略号中作宾语,lessons是最合适的,意思是“我从你那里学习到的生活上的一些经验教训”。故选D。

【解析】
本文为记叙文。希利尔湖是位于中岛边缘的一个咸水湖,是西澳大利亚南海岸的一个大岛。它是粉红色的,因为一种植物使盐产生一种红色。湖面和海洋之间有一长条陆地。这个湖以探险家威廉希利尔的名字命名的。2002,该湖被认为是湿地,2012年成为了保护区。
【41题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意:它的颜色是粉红色的,因为一种植物使盐变成红色。due to为固定搭配,意为“由于,因为”。故填 to。
【42题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意:它是粉红色的,因为一种植物使盐变成红色。“cause sth. to do …”为固定搭配,意为“导致/使某事发生”。因此填to produce。
【43题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:有一长条陆地把湖和海洋分开了。分析句子可知,本句是一个定语从句。其中先行词为land,在定语从句中作主语,指物,可以用that,也可以用which,故填that/which。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意:当时马修·弗林德斯徒步走上了岛上最高的山脉。分析句子可知,根据前面的one of the islands highest+名词复数。因此此处要填 mountains。
【45题详解】
考查语境及名词。句意:他是一位探险家。分析句子可知,本空前有an,可知要用名词。根据句意可知,要填explorer。
【46题详解】
考查副词。句意:采矿最终被停止了。分析句子可知,本空在句中作状语,修饰动词stopped,因此要填eventually。
【47题详解】
考查形容词。句意:采矿工作最终还是停止了,因为盐有毒,不适合食用或用于其他产品。本空在句中作系动词was的表语,根据语境可知填poisonous。
【48题详解】
考查冠词。句意:2002年,该湖被认定为(一块)湿地。分析句子可知,本空在句中表示量词“一”,因此填a。
【49题详解】
考查过去分词作定语。句意:2012年,它成为一个保护区。分析句子可知,本空在句中作定语,修饰名词area。名词area与动词protect二者是被动关系。即被保护的,要用过去分析词,故填protected。
【50题详解】
考查谓语动词。句意:在它周围建了一条步行道供游客使用。根据前面 的时间状2012,可知用一般过去时。而主语A walking trail 与谓语动词build是被动关系。所以要用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was built。
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。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。

注意:1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;
2. 只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。
Dear Laura,
Thanks for letting us to stay at your seaside house. Now, you might have heard from your neighbors about which happened on Saturday evening. When I was out a walk, my younger son, Tom, played football before your house. He made so many noise that the neighbors got quite angrily. Even worse, Tom broke one of the window of Mr. Wilson’s house. Tom and I apologized to all the neighbors for the unhappy happenings, but promised to have the broken window repair soon. Tom said that we would not do such silly things any more. I am glad that your neighbors had forgiven us. They are really nice people.
Yours,
Betty
【答案】1.to stay去掉to
2.about后的which →what
3.out for a walk
4.many →much
5.angrily →angry
6.window →windows
7.but →and
8.repair →repaired
9.we →he
10.had →have
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。作者和家人住在朋友家海边的房子时,作者的小儿子汤姆在朋友家门前踢足球时打破了威尔逊先生家的一扇窗户。汤姆和作者为这件不幸的事向所有的邻居道了歉。
【详解】1.考查介词。let sb. do sth.为固定用法,意为“让某人做某事”,后跟动词原形,故去掉to。
2.考查连接词。此处是一个宾语从句,从句缺少主语,指事,故应用what引导宾语从句。
3.考查介词。短语be out for a walk意为“出去散步”,for表示目的。故out后添加for。
4.考查形容词。noise为不可数名词,因为需要用much修饰,故many改为much。
5.考查形容词。get为系动词,后跟形容词作表语,故angrily改为angry。
6.考查名词的数。短语one of后跟名词复数,表示“……其中之一”,故window改为windows。
7.考查连词。句意:汤姆和我为这件不幸的事向所有的邻居道歉,并且我们答应尽快把打破的窗户修好。前后文为并列关系,故but改为and。
8.考查非谓语动词。句中的have意为“使得”,其后的宾补与宾语之间是动宾关系,应该用过去分词repaired。
9.考查人称代词。根据语境可知是Tom打破了窗户,故此处表示的是汤姆他不会再做这样的傻事。故we改为he。
10.考查动词时态。主句谓语动词为一般现在时,所以从句应该用完成时。故had改为have。
第三节 书面表达(满分25分)

With the support of family,friends,a coach,and her teammates,Jessica is able to run again.But that’s not enough for her now.She doesn’t just want to cross finish lines herself—she wants to take Rosa with her.( 杰西卡与罗莎发展了密切的关系,一个患有癌症,能够看穿杰西卡内心的女孩。在家人、朋友、教练和队友的支持下,杰西卡能够再次奔跑。但这还不够。她不只是想自己冲过终点线,她还想带上罗莎。)可知,这本书提及到了A项Friendship(友谊);C项 Bravery(勇敢); D项Determination(决心),并未提及B项Modesty(谦逊)。故选B项。

For some years,my mother worked for a charity as President and Secretary.Selling raffle tickets(兑奖券) was her main means of bringing in the charity’s muchneeded funds.We girls would accompany her,selling tickets with great success.My father made and donated beautiful wooden toys,jewellery boxes and other lovely items as prizes.
Now my sister was always coming up with “good ideas”,most of which didn’t work out to plan.But that didn’t deter her.She had many just waiting to be tested.When she was eight and I was just five,we had a wonderful idea for a business adventure.We decided we would sell raffle tickets for charity,and that charity was us!
So one afternoon,we told our mother we were going to play in the park with our cousins as we did most days after school.But instead,we walked around the streets armed with a raffle book,a pen and a large cloth bag to carry the money.
We’d accompanied our mother many times when she sold tickets,so people were familiar with us when we appeared at their doors.Despite the blank looks they received when asking about the prizes on offer,they were very generous.Although there were no actual prizes,our mother’s previous track record enabled us to sell nearly the whole book of raffle tickets.
Like a little pair of lottery(彩票) winners,we walked home and proudly showed off our takings.But our enjoyment of this sudden wealth was shortlived,and our plans for spending it quickly failed.Our angry mother took us back to every ticket buyer,making us apologise and give the money back.Thankfully,our sweet neighbours didn’t make a big deal of our “clever” misbehavior and thus my mother’s
fundraising career could continue safely.We were taught a good lesson by our mother that day.Also I remember my sister’s entrepreneurial(企业家的) spirit dried up a bit after that.
4. What did the author’s father do?
A. He got prizes ready. B. He sold handmade items.
C. He was in charge of a charity. D. He helped design raffle tickets.
5. What does the underlined word “deter” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Embarrass. B. Shock.
C. Discourage. D. Mislead.
6. What can be learned about the author and her sister while selling raffle tickets?
A. They ran into their mother.
B. They met some generous strangers.
C. They got lost while walking around the streets.
D. They took advantage of people’s trust in their mother.
7. What lesson did the author and her sister learn?
A. Honesty is the best policy. B. What’s done can’t be undone.
C. Misfortune never comes alone. D. Good advice is beyond all price.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. A
【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要描述了作者和妹妹自以为的“小聪明式”售卖慈善奖券的方式受到了母亲的责备,并得到了教训:要以诚信待人。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段末句:My father made and donated beautiful wooden toys,jewellery boxes and other lovely items as prizes.(我父亲制作并捐赠了漂亮的木制玩具、首饰盒和其他可爱的物品作为奖品。)可知,作者的父亲准备奖品。故选A项。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在句子由but连接,表转折,之前的句子:Now my sister was always coming up with “good ideas”,most of which didn’t work out to plan.(现在我妹妹总是能想出“好主意”,但大多数都没有按计划实现。)以及后一句:She had many just waiting to be tested.(她有很多只是等待测试。)可知,作者的妹妹并没有受到计划失败的打击。因此划线单词deter可以理解为discourage(使气馁),故选C项。

Insects could disappear within a century at current rate of decline, says Global Review.
The world’ s insects are moving quickly down the path to dying out, indicating a disastrous collapse(崩溃)of nature’ s ecosystems is likely to happen, according to the first global scientific review. More than 40% of insect species are declining and a third are endangered, the analysis found. The rate of extinction(灭绝)is eight times faster than that of mammals, birds and reptiles.
“It should be of huge concern to all of us, for insects are at the heart of every food web—they pollinate(授粉) the large majority of plant species, keep the soil healthy, recycle nutrients, control pests, and much more. Love them or hate them, we humans cannot survive without insects,” said Prof Dave Goulson at the University of Sussex in the UK.
The analysis, published in the journal Biological Conservation, says intensive agriculture is the main driver of the declines, particularly the heavy use of pesticides(杀虫剂). Urbanisation and climate change are also significant factors.
One of the biggest impacts of insect loss is on the many birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish that eat insects. A small number of adaptable species are increasing in number, but not nearly enough to outweigh the big losses.
Matt Shardlow, at the conservation charity Buglife, said, “It is alarming to see this collation(整理) of evidence that shows the state of the world’ s insect populations. It is increasingly obvious that the planet’ s ecology is breaking and there is a need for an intense and global effort to stop and reverse(反转)these terrible trends.”
8. What did Prof Dave stress in his speech?
A. Insects are vital to food webs.
B. Not all people love insects.
C. Scientists are concerned about insect loss.
D. Humans need certain conditions for survival.
9. Which of the following is most influenced by insect loss?
A. Animals that feed on insects. B. Adaptable animal species.
C. Pests that are used to pesticides. D. Crops produced by intensive agriculture.
10. How did Matt Shardlow sound when talking about the state of insect loss?
A. Relaxed. B. Uncaring.
C. Humorous. D. Worried.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. The extinction rate of insects gets slowed down.
B. The failure of nature’ s ecosystems can be avoided.
C Sharp drops in insect numbers endanger ecosystems.
D. Insect extinction harms the diversity of animal species.
【答案】8. A 9. A 10. D 11. C

推理判断题。根据文章第三段内容:“It should be of huge concern to all of us, for insects are at the heart of every food web—they pollinate(授粉) the large majority of plant species, keep the soil healthy, recycle nutrients, control pests, and much more. Love them or hate them, we humans cannot survive without insects,” said Prof Dave Goulson at the University of Sussex in the UK.(“这应该引起我们所有人的极大关注,因为昆虫是每一个食物网的核心——它们为绝大多数植物物种授粉,保持土壤健康,循环利用营养,控制害虫,等等。英国苏塞克斯大学的戴夫·古尔森教授说:“不管你喜欢还是讨厌昆虫,没有昆虫我们人类无法生存。”)可知,昆虫对于食物链来说是很重要的。故选A项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第五段第1句:One of the biggest impacts of insect loss is on the many birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish that eat insects.(昆虫消失的最大影响之一是许多以昆虫为食的鸟类、爬行动物、两栖动物和鱼类。)可知,受昆虫消失影响最大的是以昆虫为食的动物。故选A项。

【11题详解】
主旨大意题。文章体裁为说明文。结构为分分结构。其中第一段和第二段主要围绕昆虫物种较快的下降速度进行描述。第三段分析了昆虫物种在食物链中的重要性。第四段分析了消失的原因,第五段分析了其消失造成的影响,第六段讲述了担忧。总结各段主旨可知,文章主要描述了昆虫消失对于生态系统的影响。选项C. Sharp drops in insect numbers endanger ecosystems.贴合主旨。故选C项。
【点睛】阅读理解之—态度推理判断
识别态度有以下方法:找文中带有感情色彩的名词、动词、形容词、副词;根据作者举的例子判断等。比如文章第3小题:
3. How did Matt Shardlow sound when talking about the state of insect loss?
A. Relaxed. B. Uncaring.
C. Humorous. D. Worried
在涉及本题的文段中:Matt Shardlow, at the conservation charity Buglife, said, “It is alarming to see this collation of evidence that shows the state of the world’ s insect populations. It is increasingly obvious that the planet’ s ecology is breaking and there is a need for an intense and global effort to stop and reverse these terrible trends.”可知,alarming,intense,terrible 等贬义词反复出现,可见Matt Shardlow 对此事的担忧。因此D项:Worried 为其对这件事的态度。

If you follow any people who like traveling on Instagram,you’ve probably noticed they’ve posted amazing photos from Portugal in the last few years,especially during peak summer months.Mario Fernandes,a cocreator and the editor of GoLisbon said he had seen increased interest in traveling to Portugal in the past five years,particularly in the last two or three.Cindy Goldberger,a travel adviser for Hiatus,an agency in Brooklyn,New York,said that she noticed an increase in Portugal trips about three years ago and that she gets more requests to plan people’s visits there every year.According to Reuters,the number of foreign tourists visiting Portugal hit a record for 2017,and in the same year the country won the world’s leading destination at the World Travel Awards.

Eric Hrubant,the president of Cire Travel,noted that there is another reason.“It’s a small country,yet you have cities with rich history,culture and food,as well as a lot of beach and golfing options,” he said.“In five to ten days,you can have a vacation or honeymoon that caters to(满足) all of your senses and desires.”
Hrubant pointed out that celebrities(名人) like Madonna and newlyweds Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander have moved to Portugal,which has put the country on more people’s radar(受到更多人的关注).

4. What’s the author’s main purpose in writing the text?
A. To encourage people to visit Portugal. B. To recommend some Portuguese trips.
C. To tell some basic facts about Portugal. D. To explain why Portugal has become famous.
通过题干可知,本题询问作者写作目的。在做此道题目时,文章已经阅读完毕,体裁已经知晓为应用文。文章在首段只是提出了话题中心—葡萄牙旅游吸引了更多游客。因此判断末段为目的段:So you don’t know where to go for a vacation this summer?Now you can make a better decision.。通过分析可知,作者在末段提出了葡萄牙作为旅游地点之一的建议,不难看出,此为写作目的。因此A项:To encourage people to visit Portugal.为正确答案。

考查过去分词作定语。句意:2012年,它成为一个保护区。分析句子可知,本空在句中作定语,修饰名词area。名词area与动词protect二者是被动关系。即被保护的,要用过去分析词,故填protected。
【50题详解】
考查谓语动词。句意:在它周围建了一条步行道供游客使用。根据前面 的时间状2012,可知用一般过去时。而主语A walking trail 与谓语动词build是被动关系。所以要用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was built。

Dear Laura,
Thanks for letting us to stay at your seaside house. Now, you might have heard from your neighbors about which happened on Saturday evening. When I was out a walk, my younger son, Tom, played football before your house. He made so many noise that the neighbors got quite angrily. Even worse, Tom broke one of the window of Mr. Wilson’s house. Tom and I apologized to all the neighbors for the unhappy happenings, but promised to have the broken window repair soon. Tom said that we would not do such silly things any more. I am glad that your neighbors had forgiven us. They are really nice people.
Yours,
Betty
【答案】1.to stay去掉to
2.about后的which →what
3.out for a walk
4.many →much
5.angrily →angry
6.window →windows
7.but →and
8.repair →repaired
9.we →he
10.had →have
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。作者和家人住在朋友家海边的房子时,作者的小儿子汤姆在朋友家门前踢足球时打破了威尔逊先生家的一扇窗户。汤姆和作者为这件不幸的事向所有的邻居道了歉。
【详解】1.考查介词。let sb. do sth.为固定用法,意为“让某人做某事”,后跟动词原形,故去掉to。
2.考查连接词。此处是一个宾语从句,从句缺少主语,指事,故应用what引导宾语从句。
3.考查介词。短语be out for a walk意为“出去散步”,for表示目的。故out后添加for。
4.考查形容词。noise为不可数名词,因为需要用much修饰,故many改为much。
5.考查形容词。get为系动词,后跟形容词作表语,故angrily改为angry。
6.考查名词的数。短语one of后跟名词复数,表示“……其中之一”,故window改为windows。
7.考查连词。句意:汤姆和我为这件不幸的事向所有的邻居道歉,并且我们答应尽快把打破的窗户修好。前后文为并列关系,故but改为and。
8.考查非谓语动词。句中的have意为“使得”,其后的宾补与宾语之间是动宾关系,应该用过去分词repaired。
9.考查人称代词。根据语境可知是Tom打破了窗户,故此处表示的是汤姆他不会再做这样的傻事。故we改为he。
10.考查动词时态。主句谓语动词为一般现在时,所以从句应该用完成时。故had改为have。
