【原文】M: Today’s guest is singer Alisha Ryan, who was the winner of a well-known TV talent show a few years ago. Tell me, Alisha, was becoming a famous singer something you’d always wanted to do?
W: Not really. No. I’d always enjoyed singing, of course, but the idea of becoming a star never occurred to me until I saw Katie Wyatt, who’d been in my class back in my secondary school days, in a talent show. And my brother said I got a better voice than her. I suddenly knew it was something I at least had to try to do.
M: And how did you feel when you first went on live TV, and you had that victory?
W: Well, I didn’t actually sing that well. I was annoyed with myself and I thought my family and friends were a bit disappointed, too. At one point I was convinced I’d lost, so afterwards I was just glad when the scores were announced and it became clear I hadn’t.
M: You did in fact become famous overnight.
W: Yes, I realized that the next morning, when the national press had all the news about me.
M: I imagine they said a lot of nice things.
W: Yes though it was mostly about how I had the right look, how stylish my clothes were and that sort of thing, rather than how I’d actually performed or what they thought of my singing voice.
M: How do you feel about friendships among famous people?
W: I wouldn’t say that exactly. Just remember it’s probably going to end sometime, and when it does you’ll want to go back to those you were close to before you were famous, so don’t lose touch with them.
M: Thank you, Alisha.

Fireflies flash not just for mating (交配), but survival, a new study suggests. Scientists wanted to find out if there’s more to the lightning bug’s signature blinking glow (一闪一闪的亮光) than finding a mate. Some experts had assumed it was a glaring signal to predators (捕食者), like bats, that fireflies taste bad.
To test out whether the glow acted like that, researchers at Boise State University in Idaho put bats and fireflies in front of high-speed cameras. They published their results in Wednesday’s journal Science Advances.
The painstaking experiment required researchers to introduce western bats, which had never seen lightning bugs before, to the insects. Later, they hand-painted firefly bellies black, turning off their night lights but avoiding the holes the insects breathe through. When the bats first saw the unfamiliar lit-up fireflies, they acted excitedly and ate a lot of the bugs, only to get a bad taste in their mouths.“They shake their heads and spit and generally hate their caretakers for giving them such a rude meal,” said study author Jesse Barber, a Boise State biology professor and author of the study. After a few tries, the bats then avoided the glowing fireflies. Despite the popular misconception, bats aren’t blind, a study author noted.
Once the fireflies essentially taught bats that they taste bad, Barber and his colleagues introduced the darkened fireflies. About 40 percent of the painted ones were eaten, while none of the normal fireflies were eaten. Researchers also think the way lightning bugs fly signals what they are. To test that they put fireflies on fishing lines and the bats went after them, despite already knowing that fireflies don’t taste good. The results make sense and are valuable, said Nick Dowdy, a Purdue University researcher in Indiana, who was not involved in the study.
Scientists already knew that fireflies have distinctive flash patterns that tell others who they are and where they are. And some females prefer males that flash at higher rates, according to study co-author Marc Branham of University of Florida. Barber noted that even in their larval (幼虫) stage, the bugs glow and don’t get eaten. So he theorized that when it comes to evolution, fireflies’ glowing trait (特点) may have developed first as protection from predators and later became a mating signal.
So, Barber said, “Bats may have invented fireflies.”
58. The purpose of the researchers’ study is to see________
A. whether fireflies flash to warn their predators away
B. how fireflies react to high-speed cameras
C. how fireflies flash to attract a mate
D. when fireflies make a bright light
59. Why did the researchers put fireflies on fishing lines?
A. To hide their flashes.
B. To make them fly faster.
C. To make them more energetic.
D. To change their flying patterns.
60. What does Barber mean in the last paragraph?
A. Bats have influenced fireflies’ evolution.
B. Bats and fireflies depend on each other.
C. Bats have similar traits to fireflies.
D. Bats tend to avoid larval fireflies.
【答案】58. A 59. D 60. A

这是一篇科普说明文，介绍了科学家通过实验研究，得出结论：萤火虫这类发光的虫子，之所以发光，不仅仅是为了交配，更多的是为了生存：以发光的方式告诉捕食者它们并不是很美味。
【58题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段“Some experts had assumed it was a glaring signal to predators (捕食者), like bats, that fireflies taste bad.”可知，一些专家认为，发光是一种信号，向捕食者，比如蝙蝠，暗示它们并不是很美味。为了验证这一观点，科学家们做了些研究。结合选项，故选A项。
【59题详解】
推理判断题。由第四段“Researchers also think the way lightning bugs fly signals what they are. To test that they put fireflies on fishing lines and the bats went after them,”可知，研究者也认为发光虫子飞行的方式暗示了它们的身份。为了验证这个，他们将萤火虫缚在钓鱼线上，后面跟着蝙蝠。由此可以推断，研究者将萤火虫缚在鱼线上是为了改变它们的飞行方式，迷惑后面的蝙蝠。故选D项。
【60题详解】
词义猜测题。由倒数第二段“Barber noted that even in their larval (幼虫) stage, the bugs glow and don’t get eaten. So he theorized that when it comes to evolution, fireflies’ glowing trait (特点) may have developed first as protection from predators and later became a mating signal.”可知，Barber注意到，即使在幼虫期，这些虫子发光，就不会被吃掉。因此他推测，萤火虫发光的特点首先作为对捕食者的防护，后来才发展成为求偶信号。也就是说捕食者对发光虫子的进化有一定影响。结合上面的理论，他才说“也许是蝙蝠发明了萤火虫。”
故选A项。
C
You have probably read about robots replacing human labor as automation takes root in one industry after another. But a new report suggests humans are not the only ones who might lose their jobs.
In New Zealand, farmers are using drones (无人机) to herd (放牧) and monitor livestock (牲畜), assuming a job that highly intelligent dogs have held for more than a century. The robots have appropriated one of the animal’s effective tools: barking, Radio New Zealand reports. The DJI Mavic Enterprise, a $3,500 drone favored by farmers, has a feature that lets the machine record sounds and play them over a loud speaker, giving the machine the ability to imitate its canine counterparts.
Corey Lambeth, a shepherd on a sheep and beef farm, told RNZ the machines are surprisingly effective. “That’s the one thing I’ve noticed when you’re moving cows and calves: the old cows stand up to the dogs, but with the drones, they’ve never done that.” he said. That means the drones move livestock faster, with less stress, than the dogs do.
Farmers told RNZ the drones come in handy for more than just herding cows and sheep. The robots allow farmers to monitor their land from afar, monitoring water and feed levels and checking on livestock health without disturbing the animals.
Jason Rentoul told RNZ last spring that a two-hour herding job that used to require two people and two teams of dogs could be accomplished in 45 minutes using a single drone.“Being a hilly farm where a lot of stuff is done on foot, the drones really saved a lot of man hours,” he said. “The drone does the higher bits that you can’t see (from the ground). Before using drones, you would (otherwise) have to walk half an hour to go and have a look and then say, “Oh, there are no sheep here.”
Farmers all over the world are using drones. In South Africa, they monitor crop health from above, which boosts harvests, according to CNN. In California, winemakers use drones equipped with sensors to grow healthier grapes, according to MIT Technology Review. Because drones fly closer to the ground, they are able to provide high-resolution images that are less expensive than hiring someone to fly over a field in a manned aircraft, the publication reported.
For now, farmers in New Zealand say, some dogs are already learning to work alongside drones, identifying the machines as more co-worker than enemy. Besides, there is still a need for herding dogs, primarily because they have a longer life span than drones, can work in bad weather and do not require an electrical socket (插座) every few hours to recharge.
61. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 probably refers to“_____”.
A. farmers’ order
B. dogs’ barking
C. the call of sheep
D. the sound of loud speakers
62. What’s the advantage of drones according to the farmers?
A. They can be purchased at a low price.
B. They put less stress on livestock.
C. They can do more than one task efficiently.
D. They help them monitor weather conditions.
63. What does Paragraph 6 mainly talk about?
A. The secret to harvesting healthier grapes.
B. The application of drones in global agriculture.
C. How drones provide less expensive but clearer images.
D. Why manned aircraft are losing appeal for
64. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________.
A. drones function normally in extreme weather
B. farmers are troubled by where to charge drones
C. the herding dogs show no enthusiasm to drones
D. drones cannot replace dogs entirely at the moment
【答案】61. B 62. C 63. B 64. D
【解析】

The outstanding biography — from the same author who brought us Steve Jobs and Einstein —portrays the life of the complicated Renaissance (文艺复兴时期的) artist with details. We come to see da Vinci as not only an inventor of musical instruments and early flying machines, but also a notebook keeper and vegetarian (素食者), who had trouble finishing many of the projects and paintings he started.
Yet what is most thrilling is getting to know da Vinci the scientist. Isaacson explains how loving science and applying the scientific method to observing the world was really what made da Vinci a great artist and, Isaacson argues, a genius.
Da Vinci was fascinated with observing and understanding phenomena in nature, from the proportions of the human body to how the muscles of the lips moved. He wanted to know about everything around him, in minute detail, Isaacson writes. He wondered about questions “most people over the age of ten no longer puzzle about”— for instance, how the tongue of a woodpecker works.
To learn about the world, da Vinci combined his own observations with experimentation. Never formally schooled, “he preferred to induce from experiments rather than deduce from theoretical principles,” Isaacson explains. He recorded his observations, looked for patterns among them, and then tested those patterns through additional observation and experimentation.
When he became fascinated with the idea that he could invent flying machines, three and a half centuries before the Wright brothers flew the first airplane, he observed various birds and filled notebooks with the function and speed at which their wings flapped. That’s why Isaacson calls da Vinci an exemplar of this scientific method.”He goes on:“Galileo, born 112 years after Leonardo, is usually credited with being the first to develop this kind of approach and is often regarded as the father of modern science,” the historian Fritjof Capra wrote. “There can be no doubt that this honor would have been bestowed (赐予) on Leonardo da Vinci had he published his scientific writings during his lifetime, or had his notebooks been widely studied soon after his death.”
Da Vinci’s emphasis on empirical observation also helped him improve his art. First, he was able to use what he learned from looking at nature to paint and draw. His studies of the body, animals, motion, shadow and light, perspective and proportion helped him better understand what he was seeing in front of him, and render it in art more accurately and finely than anyone else of his time. He also used his observations of nature to make connections among phenomena. A recorder (竖笛) was like a larynx (喉管) in the throat. Here’s Isaacson again: What Leonardo probably began as four distinct elements ended up woven together in a way that illustrates a fundamental theme in his art and science: the interconnectedness of nature, the unity of its patterns, and the similarity between the workings of the human body and those of the earth.
Most importantly, his curiosity-driven explorations, and ability to connect art and science, helped him innovate in his work. They helped him think differently, Isaacson argues. Da Vinci made surprisingly diverse series of discoveries, including conceptualizing the helicopter and solar power and advancing knowledge about everything from the reproductive organs to botany. This genius is also what drew Isaacson to Albert Einstein and Steve Jobs as subjects: They’re all innovators who were inspired by and drew connections between art and science.
“Leonardo da Vinci is the ultimate example of the main theme of my previous biographies: how the ability to make connections across disciplines — arts and sciences, humanities and technology — is a key to innovation, imagination, and genius,” Isaacson writes. And this wonderful book is a reminder, in a time of increasingly narrow specialization and focus, that the methods of Renaissance men like da Vinci are as relevant as ever.
65. What is the highlight of da Vinci’s biography?
A. His unfinished paintings.
B. His preference for vegetables.
C. His spirit of exploring science.
D. His opposition to formal education.
66. What made da Vinci’s thinking different from others?
A. He was used to skipping school.
B. He kept his childhood’s sense of curiosity.
C. He was filled with ambition to become an artist and inventor.
D. He developed a fascination with historical novels.
67. Why does Isaacson mention Galileo in the book?
A. To introduce his important findings.
B. To memorize the father of modern science.
C. To show the prejudice faced by da Vinci during his lifetime.
D. To illustrate the significance of da Vinci’s research method.
68. The underlined word “render” in Paragraph 6 can be replaced by“_____”.
A. express B. mix C. confirm D. associate
69. What does Isaacson think of the methods of Renaissance men?
A. They are too complicated to understand.
B. They focus on the workings of the human body.
C. They are more accurate than modern methods.
D. They still apply to contemporary scientific research.
70. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. How a Genius Changed the World
B. The Features of Renaissance Art
C. How Science Shaped His Art
D. The Comparison between Induction and Deduction
【答案】65. C 66. B 67. D 68. A 69. D 70. C

请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
Anxiety is a typical human reaction to stress. But too much anxiety can get in the way of living a healthy, happy life. If you feel caught up in your anxiety, try one or a few of the following exercises anytime and anywhere to find relief.
When you’re feeling anxious, you might notice that your heart rate and breathing get a bit faster. First, you should sit in a quiet and comfortable place. Put one of your hands on your chest and the other on your stomach.
Then take a slow and regular breath in through your nose. Watch and sense your hands as you breathe in. The hand on your chest should remain still while the hand on your stomach will move slightly. Breathe out through your mouth slowly. Repeat this process at least 10 times or until you begin to feel relaxed.
If it doesn’t work, try think of your ideal place that you find very calming, happy, peaceful, and safe. Think about how the place would smell, feel, and sound. Envision yourself in that place, enjoying it comfortably.
Once you have a good picture of your “happy place,” close your eyes and take slow and regular breaths through your nose and out of your mouth. Be aware of your breathing and continue focusing on the place you’ve imagined in your mind until you feel your anxiety lifting.
But it can be hard to think clearly when you feel anxious. Sometimes anxious thinking can make us believe harmful thoughts that are untrue or make us do things that make our anxiety worse. Here’s how to avoid so: ask yourself whether endless worry is a problem for you. If the answer is yes, it’s good to be aware of that. Then try different ways such as singing a silly song, , listening to music, reading a book or the like.
Counting is also a simple way to ease your anxiety. When you feel anxiety washing over you, close your eyes and slowly count to 10. If necessary, repeat and count to 20 or an even higher number. Keep counting until you feel ease.
Sometimes this relief occurs quickly, but other times it might take a while. Stay calm and patient. It’s a great tool to use in a crowded or busy space where you can’t do other anxiety exercises.
Choose an anxiety exercise and try it until you’re feeling relaxed. If one exercise doesn’t work, try a different one. But anxiety exercises may not work for those with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). If you have GAD, consult your doctor for more effective treatment options.

考查动词carry 根据表格，这是本文推荐的最后一个方法。所以当表格中提到，当其他方法不奏效，或者执行起来比较难的时候，可以试试数数。carry out意为执行，而且此处是跟在动词不定式to后，填动词原形，故填carry。
【80题详解】
考查副词less 根据最后一段“Choose an anxiety exercise and try it until you’re feeling relaxed.”可知，选择一种焦虑练习法，试着做，直到你感觉放松了。结合表格，此处的直到你感觉不怎么焦虑跟原文的感觉放松意思相近。less anxious不怎么焦虑。故填less。
【点睛】解任务型阅读既要理解原文，也要理解表格。表格是对原文结构的一种再梳理，填词时要正确定位原文，找到相对应的句子或短语，继而进行短语替换或词汇的改变或句型的转换。比如第一题，我们找到原文里的get in the way与表格里的短语____ with对应，所以我们填interfere with;再比如第三题，表格里要求填控制呼吸可以帮助处理压力的一些______。我们定位到第二段“When you’re feeling anxious, you might notice that your heart rate and breathing get a bit faster.”可知，当你焦虑时，你可能会注意到自己心跳加快，呼吸急促。这些都是焦虑的正常反应。再结合第一段“Anxiety is a typical human reaction to stress.”可知焦虑是人对压力的典型反应。所以，这里填reactions或responses。

Campus security has recently attracted wide public attention.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Possible version 1 (不赞同):
To ensure security, strangers including parents are banned from entering our campus, which has brought about heated discussions among parents. So a survey has been made among the students about whether parents should be included.
According to the survey, 60% of the students think parents should be included because it is a rule everyone should obey. Another 25% subscribe to the view that there is no need for the ban as their beloved parents couldn’t be a danger to anyone. However, the rest think the guards can make a proper decision depending on certain situations.
Personally, I agree with most students. As the saying goes, “Prevention is better than cure.” Proper measures should be taken before it’s too late. As for parents, they have some other ways to keep in touch with their children, like making calls or asking for teachers’ help. All in all, campus security calls for everyone’s concern and cooperation.
Possible version 2 (不赞同):
To ensure security, strangers including parents are banned from entering our campus, which has brought about heated discussions among parents. So a survey has been made among the students about whether parents should be included.
According to the survey, 60% of the students think parents should be included because it is a rule everyone should obey. Another 25% subscribe to the view that there is no need for the ban as their beloved parents couldn’t be a danger to anyone. However, the rest think the guards can make a proper decision depending on certain situations.
I agree parents can enter campus according to the actual situation. For example, if parents come to school at the request of their children who need any help, or at the invitation of the school, the head teacher or the subject teacher to exchange information about their children’s learning, then I think the guard should let the parents into campus after contacting the relevant personnel and registering the parents’ identity information.

【原文】M: Today’s guest is singer Alisha Ryan, who was the winner of a well-known TV talent show a few years ago. Tell me, Alisha, was becoming a famous singer something you’d always wanted to do?
W: Not really. No. I’d always enjoyed singing, of course, but the idea of becoming a star never occurred to me until I saw Katie Wyatt, who’d been in my class back in my secondary school days, in a talent show. And my brother said I got a better voice than her. I suddenly knew it was something I at least had to try to do.
M: And how did you feel when you first went on live TV, and you had that victory?
W: Well, I didn’t actually sing that well. I was annoyed with myself and I thought my family and friends were a bit disappointed, too. At one point I was convinced I’d lost, so afterwards I was just glad when the scores were announced and it became clear I hadn’t.
M: You did in fact become famous overnight.
W: Yes, I realized that the next morning, when the national press had all the news about me.
M: I imagine they said a lot of nice things.
W: Yes though it was mostly about how I had the right look, how stylish my clothes were and that sort of thing, rather than how I’d actually performed or what they thought of my singing voice.
M: How do you feel about friendships among famous people?
W: I wouldn’t say that exactly. Just remember it’s probably going to end sometime, and when it does you’ll want to go back to those you were close to before you were famous, so don’t lose touch with them.
M: Thank you, Alisha.
第二部分:英语知识运用(共两节，满分35分)

【答案】D

【点睛】解时态题，可以结合句中的时间状语，选择相应的时态。至于语态，则根据句意来判断。比如该题有明显的时间状语a decade ago，这是典型的用一般过去时的标志，结合句意，这家公司是被谴责，所以必须要用被动语态，所以选择一般过去时的被动语态。

【点睛】解非谓语动词时，首先要分析句子成分，判断非谓语动词在句中作什么成分，然后根据具体的成分，判断它跟逻辑主语之间的主动或被动关系来确定选项。比如该题，分析句子结构，主句谓语动词为reflect，设空处需填非谓语动词。可知，此处为现在分词做结果状语（表自然而然的结果）。having made表示make这个动作发生在reflect之前，是错误的；to do通常作目的状语或者结果状语（出乎意料的结果），不符合语境，这里适合用现在分词做结果状语。故选A项。

【分析】
【详解】考查虚拟语气。句意：如果她知道你并没有打算伤害她这一事实的话，她就不会勃然大怒。根据题中wouldn't have 和fact后的同位语从句的时态可知，这是对过去时间的虚拟。在if的非真实条件句中，对过去时间的虚拟从句谓语动词要用had done，省略连词if后，句子要用部分倒装，即had提前至从句主语之前。故选B项。

【点睛】解状语从句主要是根据题文，了解从句和主句之间的逻辑关系，是表示时间还是原因或者方式或者其他。比如此题，普契尼死于心脏病与他完成最后一幕之间是什么关系。根据下文，他的学生替他完成了，说明他没有能够完成最后一幕剧。由此我们可以推断，他是在完成最后一幕剧之前去世的，主句和从句之间是时间先后关系，故选B项。

34.A man ought to follow his heart when reading, or _____ he reads as a task will do him little good.
A. that B. how C. why D. what
【答案】D
【解析】

A. that’s his feet of clay B. a little bird told him

Fireflies flash not just for mating (交配), but survival, a new study suggests. Scientists wanted to find out if there’s more to the lightning bug’s signature blinking glow (一闪一闪的亮光) than finding a mate. Some experts had assumed it was a glaring signal to predators (捕食者), like bats, that fireflies taste bad.
To test out whether the glow acted like that, researchers at Boise State University in Idaho put bats and fireflies in front of high-speed cameras. They published their results in Wednesday’s journal Science Advances.
The painstaking experiment required researchers to introduce western bats, which had never seen lightning bugs before, to the insects. Later, they hand-painted firefly bellies black, turning off their night lights but avoiding the holes the insects breathe through. When the bats first saw the unfamiliar lit-up fireflies, they acted excitedly and ate a lot of the bugs, only to get a bad taste in their mouths.“They shake their heads and spit and generally hate their caretakers for giving them such a rude meal,” said study author Jesse Barber, a Boise State biology professor and author of the study. After a few tries, the bats then avoided the glowing fireflies. Despite the popular misconception, bats aren’t blind, a study author noted.
Once the fireflies essentially taught bats that they taste bad, Barber and his colleagues introduced the darkened fireflies. About 40 percent of the painted ones were eaten, while none of the normal fireflies were eaten. Researchers also think the way lightning bugs fly signals what they are. To test that they put fireflies on fishing lines and the bats went after them, despite already knowing that fireflies don’t taste good. The results make sense and are valuable, said Nick Dowdy, a Purdue University researcher in Indiana, who was not involved in the study.
Scientists already knew that fireflies have distinctive flash patterns that tell others who they are and where they are. And some females prefer males that flash at higher rates, according to study co-author Marc Branham of University of Florida. Barber noted that even in their larval (幼虫) stage, the bugs glow and don’t get eaten. So he theorized that when it comes to evolution, fireflies’ glowing trait (特点) may have developed first as protection from predators and later became a mating signal.
So, Barber said, “Bats may have invented fireflies.”
58. The purpose of the researchers’ study is to see________
A. whether fireflies flash to warn their predators away
B. how fireflies react to high-speed cameras
C. how fireflies flash to attract a mate
D. when fireflies make a bright light
59. Why did the researchers put fireflies on fishing lines?
A. To hide their flashes.
B. To make them fly faster.
C. To make them more energetic.
D. To change their flying patterns.
60. What does Barber mean in the last paragraph?
A. Bats have influenced fireflies’ evolution.
B. Bats and fireflies depend on each other.
C. Bats have similar traits to fireflies.
D. Bats tend to avoid larval fireflies.
【答案】58. A 59. D 60. A

这是一篇科普说明文，介绍了科学家通过实验研究，得出结论：萤火虫这类发光的虫子，之所以发光，不仅仅是为了交配，更多的是为了生存：以发光的方式告诉捕食者它们并不是很美味。
【58题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段“Some experts had assumed it was a glaring signal to predators (捕食者), like bats, that fireflies taste bad.”可知，一些专家认为，发光是一种信号，向捕食者，比如蝙蝠，暗示它们并不是很美味。为了验证这一观点，科学家们做了些研究。结合选项，故选A项。
【59题详解】
推理判断题。由第四段“Researchers also think the way lightning bugs fly signals what they are. To test that they put fireflies on fishing lines and the bats went after them,”可知，研究者也认为发光虫子飞行的方式暗示了它们的身份。为了验证这个，他们将萤火虫缚在钓鱼线上，后面跟着蝙蝠。由此可以推断，研究者将萤火虫缚在鱼线上是为了改变它们的飞行方式，迷惑后面的蝙蝠。故选D项。
【60题详解】
词义猜测题。由倒数第二段“Barber noted that even in their larval (幼虫) stage, the bugs glow and don’t get eaten. So he theorized that when it comes to evolution, fireflies’ glowing trait (特点) may have developed first as protection from predators and later became a mating signal.”可知，Barber注意到，即使在幼虫期，这些虫子发光，就不会被吃掉。因此他推测，萤火虫发光的特点首先作为对捕食者的防护，后来才发展成为求偶信号。也就是说捕食者对发光虫子的进化有一定影响。结合上面的理论，他才说“也许是蝙蝠发明了萤火虫。”
故选A项。
C
You have probably read about robots replacing human labor as automation takes root in one industry after another. But a new report suggests humans are not the only ones who might lose their jobs.
In New Zealand, farmers are using drones (无人机) to herd (放牧) and monitor livestock (牲畜), assuming a job that highly intelligent dogs have held for more than a century. The robots have appropriated one of the animal’s effective tools: barking, Radio New Zealand reports. The DJI Mavic Enterprise, a $3,500 drone favored by farmers, has a feature that lets the machine record sounds and play them over a loud speaker, giving the machine the ability to imitate its canine counterparts.
Corey Lambeth, a shepherd on a sheep and beef farm, told RNZ the machines are surprisingly effective. “That’s the one thing I’ve noticed when you’re moving cows and calves: the old cows stand up to the dogs, but with the drones, they’ve never done that.” he said. That means the drones move livestock faster, with less stress, than the dogs do.
Farmers told RNZ the drones come in handy for more than just herding cows and sheep. The robots allow farmers to monitor their land from afar, monitoring water and feed levels and checking on livestock health without disturbing the animals.
Jason Rentoul told RNZ last spring that a two-hour herding job that used to require two people and two teams of dogs could be accomplished in 45 minutes using a single drone.“Being a hilly farm where a lot of stuff is done on foot, the drones really saved a lot of man hours,” he said. “The drone does the higher bits that you can’t see (from the ground). Before using drones, you would (otherwise) have to walk half an hour to go and have a look and then say, “Oh, there are no sheep here.”
Farmers all over the world are using drones. In South Africa, they monitor crop health from above, which boosts harvests, according to CNN. In California, winemakers use drones equipped with sensors to grow healthier grapes, according to MIT Technology Review. Because drones fly closer to the ground, they are able to provide high-resolution images that are less expensive than hiring someone to fly over a field in a manned aircraft, the publication reported.
For now, farmers in New Zealand say, some dogs are already learning to work alongside drones, identifying the machines as more co-worker than enemy. Besides, there is still a need for herding dogs, primarily because they have a longer life span than drones, can work in bad weather and do not require an electrical socket (插座) every few hours to recharge.
61. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 probably refers to“_____”.
A. farmers’ order
B. dogs’ barking
C. the call of sheep
D. the sound of loud speakers
62. What’s the advantage of drones according to the farmers?
A. They can be purchased at a low price.
B. They put less stress on livestock.
C. They can do more than one task efficiently.
D. They help them monitor weather conditions.
63. What does Paragraph 6 mainly talk about?
A. The secret to harvesting healthier grapes.
B. The application of drones in global agriculture.
C. How drones provide less expensive but clearer images.
D. Why manned aircraft are losing appeal for
64. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________.
A. drones function normally in extreme weather
B. farmers are troubled by where to charge drones
C. the herding dogs show no enthusiasm to drones
D. drones cannot replace dogs entirely at the moment
【答案】61. B 62. C 63. B 64. D
【解析】

The outstanding biography — from the same author who brought us Steve Jobs and Einstein —portrays the life of the complicated Renaissance (文艺复兴时期的) artist with details. We come to see da Vinci as not only an inventor of musical instruments and early flying machines, but also a notebook keeper and vegetarian (素食者), who had trouble finishing many of the projects and paintings he started.
Yet what is most thrilling is getting to know da Vinci the scientist. Isaacson explains how loving science and applying the scientific method to observing the world was really what made da Vinci a great artist and, Isaacson argues, a genius.
Da Vinci was fascinated with observing and understanding phenomena in nature, from the proportions of the human body to how the muscles of the lips moved. He wanted to know about everything around him, in minute detail, Isaacson writes. He wondered about questions “most people over the age of ten no longer puzzle about”— for instance, how the tongue of a woodpecker works.
To learn about the world, da Vinci combined his own observations with experimentation. Never formally schooled, “he preferred to induce from experiments rather than deduce from theoretical principles,” Isaacson explains. He recorded his observations, looked for patterns among them, and then tested those patterns through additional observation and experimentation.
When he became fascinated with the idea that he could invent flying machines, three and a half centuries before the Wright brothers flew the first airplane, he observed various birds and filled notebooks with the function and speed at which their wings flapped. That’s why Isaacson calls da Vinci an exemplar of this scientific method.”He goes on:“Galileo, born 112 years after Leonardo, is usually credited with being the first to develop this kind of approach and is often regarded as the father of modern science,” the historian Fritjof Capra wrote. “There can be no doubt that this honor would have been bestowed (赐予) on Leonardo da Vinci had he published his scientific writings during his lifetime, or had his notebooks been widely studied soon after his death.”
Da Vinci’s emphasis on empirical observation also helped him improve his art. First, he was able to use what he learned from looking at nature to paint and draw. His studies of the body, animals, motion, shadow and light, perspective and proportion helped him better understand what he was seeing in front of him, and render it in art more accurately and finely than anyone else of his time. He also used his observations of nature to make connections among phenomena. A recorder (竖笛) was like a larynx (喉管) in the throat. Here’s Isaacson again: What Leonardo probably began as four distinct elements ended up woven together in a way that illustrates a fundamental theme in his art and science: the interconnectedness of nature, the unity of its patterns, and the similarity between the workings of the human body and those of the earth.
Most importantly, his curiosity-driven explorations, and ability to connect art and science, helped him innovate in his work. They helped him think differently, Isaacson argues. Da Vinci made surprisingly diverse series of discoveries, including conceptualizing the helicopter and solar power and advancing knowledge about everything from the reproductive organs to botany. This genius is also what drew Isaacson to Albert Einstein and Steve Jobs as subjects: They’re all innovators who were inspired by and drew connections between art and science.
“Leonardo da Vinci is the ultimate example of the main theme of my previous biographies: how the ability to make connections across disciplines — arts and sciences, humanities and technology — is a key to innovation, imagination, and genius,” Isaacson writes. And this wonderful book is a reminder, in a time of increasingly narrow specialization and focus, that the methods of Renaissance men like da Vinci are as relevant as ever.
65. What is the highlight of da Vinci’s biography?
A. His unfinished paintings.
B. His preference for vegetables.
C. His spirit of exploring science.
D. His opposition to formal education.
66. What made da Vinci’s thinking different from others?
A. He was used to skipping school.
B. He kept his childhood’s sense of curiosity.
C. He was filled with ambition to become an artist and inventor.
D. He developed a fascination with historical novels.
67. Why does Isaacson mention Galileo in the book?
A. To introduce his important findings.
B. To memorize the father of modern science.
C. To show the prejudice faced by da Vinci during his lifetime.
D. To illustrate the significance of da Vinci’s research method.
68. The underlined word “render” in Paragraph 6 can be replaced by“_____”.
A. express B. mix C. confirm D. associate
69. What does Isaacson think of the methods of Renaissance men?
A. They are too complicated to understand.
B. They focus on the workings of the human body.
C. They are more accurate than modern methods.
D. They still apply to contemporary scientific research.
70. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. How a Genius Changed the World
B. The Features of Renaissance Art
C. How Science Shaped His Art
D. The Comparison between Induction and Deduction
【答案】65. C 66. B 67. D 68. A 69. D 70. C

主旨大意题。根据第二段中的Isaacson explains how loving science and applying the scientific method to observing the world was really what made da Vinci a great artist and, Isaacson argues, a genius.（艾萨克森解释道，热爱科学并运用科学方法观察世界，正是达芬奇成为伟大艺术家和天才的真正原因）可知，热爱科学并运用科学方法观察世界，正是达芬奇成为伟大艺术家和天才的真正原因。下文对此进行了详细介绍。由此可知，C项How Science Shaped His Art（科学如何塑造他（达芬奇）的艺术）适合做本文最佳标题。故选C项。

请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
Anxiety is a typical human reaction to stress. But too much anxiety can get in the way of living a healthy, happy life. If you feel caught up in your anxiety, try one or a few of the following exercises anytime and anywhere to find relief.
When you’re feeling anxious, you might notice that your heart rate and breathing get a bit faster. First, you should sit in a quiet and comfortable place. Put one of your hands on your chest and the other on your stomach.
Then take a slow and regular breath in through your nose. Watch and sense your hands as you breathe in. The hand on your chest should remain still while the hand on your stomach will move slightly. Breathe out through your mouth slowly. Repeat this process at least 10 times or until you begin to feel relaxed.
If it doesn’t work, try think of your ideal place that you find very calming, happy, peaceful, and safe. Think about how the place would smell, feel, and sound. Envision yourself in that place, enjoying it comfortably.
Once you have a good picture of your “happy place,” close your eyes and take slow and regular breaths through your nose and out of your mouth. Be aware of your breathing and continue focusing on the place you’ve imagined in your mind until you feel your anxiety lifting.
But it can be hard to think clearly when you feel anxious. Sometimes anxious thinking can make us believe harmful thoughts that are untrue or make us do things that make our anxiety worse. Here’s how to avoid so: ask yourself whether endless worry is a problem for you. If the answer is yes, it’s good to be aware of that. Then try different ways such as singing a silly song, , listening to music, reading a book or the like.
Counting is also a simple way to ease your anxiety. When you feel anxiety washing over you, close your eyes and slowly count to 10. If necessary, repeat and count to 20 or an even higher number. Keep counting until you feel ease.
Sometimes this relief occurs quickly, but other times it might take a while. Stay calm and patient. It’s a great tool to use in a crowded or busy space where you can’t do other anxiety exercises.
Choose an anxiety exercise and try it until you’re feeling relaxed. If one exercise doesn’t work, try a different one. But anxiety exercises may not work for those with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). If you have GAD, consult your doctor for more effective treatment options.

【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了几种缓解焦虑的练习方法，来帮助人们放松。
【71题详解】
考查动词interfere 根据第一段“But too much anxiety can get in the way of living a healthy, happy life.”可知，太多的焦虑可能会阻碍人们过健康而幸福的生活。原文用了get in the way,表格用了固定短语interfere with，与get in the way意思相近，故填interfere。
【72题详解】
考查动词breathing 根据第三段“Then take a slow and regular breath in through your nose.”可知，你可以通过你的鼻子慢慢地、有规律地呼吸。这里是建议人们通过呼吸去缓解焦虑。结合表格，跟在介词by后，要用动名词，故填breathing。
【73题详解】
考查名词responses/reactions 根据第二段“When you’re feeling anxious, you might notice that your heart rate and breathing get a bit faster.”可知，当你焦虑时，你可能会注意到自己心跳加快，呼吸急促。这些都是焦虑的正常反应。再结合第一段“Anxiety is a typical human reaction to stress.”可知焦虑是人对压力的典型反应。结合表格，控制呼吸可以帮助处理一些压力的反应，故填reactions或responses。
【74题详解】
考查动词moving 根据第三段“The hand on your chest should remain still while the hand on your stomach will move slightly.”可知，放在胸部的手不动，而放在胃部的另一只手轻轻移动。结合表格，这里是with 后面的复合宾语，手跟移动之间是主动关系，故填现在分词moving。
【75题详解】
考查名词details 根据第四段“Think about how the place would smell, feel, and sound. Envision yourself in that place, enjoying it comfortably.”可知，想象一下这个地方是什么味道，感觉怎样，听起来怎样。想象自己身在其中，舒适地去享受。所以这里是利用想象来放松，通过想象你所处地方的各种细节，来沉浸其中，达到放松效果。故填details。
【76题详解】
考查动词focused/fixed 根据第五段“Be aware of your breathing and continue focusing on the place you’ve imagined in your mind until you feel your anxiety lifting.”可知，要注意自己的呼吸，关注点在你所想象的这个地方，直到自己感到不怎么焦虑了。结合表格，fix/focus one’s attention on 与原文的focus on刚好意思相近，而且这里是with 后面的复合宾语，attention与focus或者fix之间是被动关系，故填过去分词focused或fixed。
【77题详解】
考查名词cycle 根据第六段“Sometimes anxious thinking can make us believe harmful thoughts that are untrue or make us do things that make our anxiety worse.”，有时焦虑时的思维会让我们相信一些不真实的想法，或者让我们去做一些事情使自己更焦虑。这正如一个恶性循环。a bad cycle是固定短语，意为恶性循环。故填cycle。
【78题详解】
考查动词counting 根据第七段“Counting is also a simple way to ease your anxiety.”可知，数数也是一种简单的缓解焦虑的方法。结合表格，此处是作介词by的宾语，需要用动名词形式，故填counting。
【79题详解】
考查动词carry 根据表格，这是本文推荐的最后一个方法。所以当表格中提到，当其他方法不奏效，或者执行起来比较难的时候，可以试试数数。carry out意为执行，而且此处是跟在动词不定式to后，填动词原形，故填carry。
【80题详解】
考查副词less 根据最后一段“Choose an anxiety exercise and try it until you’re feeling relaxed.”可知，选择一种焦虑练习法，试着做，直到你感觉放松了。结合表格，此处的直到你感觉不怎么焦虑跟原文的感觉放松意思相近。less anxious不怎么焦虑。故填less。
【点睛】解任务型阅读既要理解原文，也要理解表格。表格是对原文结构的一种再梳理，填词时要正确定位原文，找到相对应的句子或短语，继而进行短语替换或词汇的改变或句型的转换。比如第一题，我们找到原文里的get in the way与表格里的短语____ with对应，所以我们填interfere with;再比如第三题，表格里要求填控制呼吸可以帮助处理压力的一些______。我们定位到第二段“When you’re feeling anxious, you might notice that your heart rate and breathing get a bit faster.”可知，当你焦虑时，你可能会注意到自己心跳加快，呼吸急促。这些都是焦虑的正常反应。再结合第一段“Anxiety is a typical human reaction to stress.”可知焦虑是人对压力的典型反应。所以，这里填reactions或responses。

This rule has aroused a strong response from parents. For this reason, our school has recently conducted a public opinion survey among students on whether parents should enter campus. The results of the survey are as follows.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Possible version 1 (不赞同):
To ensure security, strangers including parents are banned from entering our campus, which has brought about heated discussions among parents. So a survey has been made among the students about whether parents should be included.
According to the survey, 60% of the students think parents should be included because it is a rule everyone should obey. Another 25% subscribe to the view that there is no need for the ban as their beloved parents couldn’t be a danger to anyone. However, the rest think the guards can make a proper decision depending on certain situations.
Personally, I agree with most students. As the saying goes, “Prevention is better than cure.” Proper measures should be taken before it’s too late. As for parents, they have some other ways to keep in touch with their children, like making calls or asking for teachers’ help. All in all, campus security calls for everyone’s concern and cooperation.
Possible version 2 (不赞同):
To ensure security, strangers including parents are banned from entering our campus, which has brought about heated discussions among parents. So a survey has been made among the students about whether parents should be included.
According to the survey, 60% of the students think parents should be included because it is a rule everyone should obey. Another 25% subscribe to the view that there is no need for the ban as their beloved parents couldn’t be a danger to anyone. However, the rest think the guards can make a proper decision depending on certain situations.
I agree parents can enter campus according to the actual situation. For example, if parents come to school at the request of their children who need any help, or at the invitation of the school, the head teacher or the subject teacher to exchange information about their children’s learning, then I think the guard should let the parents into campus after contacting the relevant personnel and registering the parents’ identity information.
