America’s latest superhero Austin Perine, who calls himself President Austin, is now taking the country by storm. But he is not a typical superhero. Two things set him apart: He doesn’t fight human enemies, but hunger and homelessness. Also, he’s only four years old.
Our superhero’s origin story started from the day when TJ Perine, his father, took Austin to the Firehouse Ministries, a local shelter that provides housing, food and other services for the homeless. As they drove by the building, they saw a group of 25 homeless men standing on the street corner. That day, Austin used his allowance (零用钱) to buy each man a sandwich and handed the food out himself with his slogan, “Don’t forget to show love!”
After he returned, words of Austin’s kindness spread through social media. Austin and TJ could feed 25 to 50 people at a time before, and now, thanks to community support, they can feed 800 to 2,000 people.
But Austin isn’t merely filling stomachs. He has been improving the lives of the homeless people he meets. On that first trip to Firehouse Ministries, TJ and Austin talked to a poor man named Raymont. The respect Austin showed for him touched 41-year-old Raymont, who regained his confidence in life and finally found a job with the help of TJ. All that was made possible because a little boy took the time to care.
Austin’s passion has become his family’s calling. After raising money through a GoFundMe page, Audrey, TJ’s mother established the nonprofit Show Love Foundation, dedicated to fighting homelessness. She now serves as president, and TJ oversees public relations for the foundation full time. They offer medical and mental health care as preventive steps against homelessness.
As for President Austin, he continues to give out food, smiles, and his inspirational message of love. “It makes me feel like I’m saving the day,” he said proudly.
4. Why bas Austin become well-known to the entire country?
A. He has super power to fill the stomachs of the homeless.
B. He fights hunger and homelessness at such a young age.
C. He has removed the poverty of the local community.
D. He has chosen an impressive and unique name.
5. What does the underlined word “dedicated” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Exposed. B. Opposed.
C. Devoted. D. Surprised
6. Why does the author introduce the example of Raymont in Paragraph 4?
A. To show Austin’s positive influence.
B. To persuade people to live together with their parents.
C. To prove the personal ability of Austin’s father.
D. To describe the difficult situation of poor people.
7. What is the author’s attitude towards what Austin does?
A. Sympathetic. B. Humorous.
C. Approving. D. Considerate.
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. C
【解析】
本文是一篇记叙文，4岁的美国男孩Austin成为了美国的国家英雄，这是因为他努力帮助无家可归的人，并鼓励他们积极面对生活。他的善意给那些无家可归者带来了积极的影响。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Two things set him apart: He doesn’t fight human enemies, but hunger and homelessness. Also, he’s only four years old.”可知Austin的年龄以及他给无家可归者分发食物的善意行为这两个原因让他出名了。故选B.
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第五段中的“After raising money through a GoFundMe page, Audrey, TJ’s mother established the nonprofit Show Love Foundation”可知受到Austin的影响Audrey 也创立了一个公益组织Show Love Foundation，努力帮助无家可归者。故该词意为“devoted”努力的，故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“But Austin isn’t merely filling stomachs. He has been improving the lives of the homeless people he meets.”可知Austin不仅帮助无家可归者填饱肚子，还努力改善他们的生活。接下来列举Raymontde的例子正是为了说明他的善意对无家可归者的积极影响，故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“America’s latest superhero Austin Perine, who calls himself President Austin, is now taking the country by storm.”可知Austin 现在已经成为了美国的英雄，他努力为无家可归者提供食物并鼓励他们积极面对生活。他的善意给那些无家可归者带来了积极的影响。由此推断作者对Austin的行为持支持并满意的态度，故选C。
C
Today, we are constantly bombarded (轰炸) with media reports about research on the right diet to follow to help us maintain a healthy lifestyle or lose weight-but it’s hard to know which one to pick and, once chosen, it’s harder still to stick to it. And now there’s another choice to get our teeth into.
A flexitarian (弹性素食者) diet involves eating plant-based foods and only occasionally eating meat and fish. This eating style allows you to supplement some ingredients that you wouldn’t get in a stricter vegan (素食主义者) diet-another trend growing in popularity. And like veganism, flexitarianism isn’t about eating carefully to help you lose a few pounds-it’s something people choose to help the planet. And a study into the global food system and how it affects the climate, has found that eating mainly plant-based foods is one of three key steps towards a sustainable (可持续的) future for all by 2050.
This research found that food waste will need to be halved and farming practices will also have to improve to achieve this. But without a single solution, a combined approach is needed. Dr Marco Springmann from the University of Oxford was one of the lead authors of the report. He told the BBC “We really found that a combination of measures would be needed to stay within environmental limits and those include changes towards healthier more plant-based diets.”
But whereas vegans think it’s wrong for animals to be killed for food, flexitarians believe eating meat once in a while is acceptable. And Dr Springmann agrees-as long as we “treat it as a luxury, it’s probably OK but you shouldn’t have more than one serving of red meat, which includes beef and pork, per week.” And here’s another fact to digest: If we moved to this type of diet, the study found that greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture would be cut by more than half.
8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To lead to the topic. B. To entertain the readers.
C. To ask for information. D. To present an idea.
9. What do we know about a flexitarian diet?
A. Flexitarianism aims to help you lose weight.
B. It involves eating no meat.
C. It benefits the environment.
D. It is the most popular eating style.
10. What does Dr. Marco Springmann agree with?
A. It’s wrong to kill animals for food.
B. Improving farming practices makes no sense.
C. A plant-based diet has nothing to do with climate change.
D. Combined measures are needed for environmental protection.
11. What can be the suitable title for the text?
A. Methods of keeping fit
B. Choose a flexitarian diet
C. Measures to protect the environment
D. Keep a strict vegan diet
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。介绍了一种可以帮助我们保持健康的生活方式或者减肥的饮食方式：弹性素食饮食，它包括吃植物性食物，偶尔吃肉和鱼。作者指出这种饮食方式将有益于保护环境。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段可知，如今我们不断地被各种各样的媒体报道所轰炸，这些报道都是关于研究正确的饮食来帮助我们保持健康的生活方式或者减肥的，但是我们很难知道选择哪一种（正确饮食），一旦做出选择，坚持下去也会更难。但是现在我们有另一个选择。段落先是引出话题，接着由最后一句引出下文，故第一段的目的是引出主题。故选A项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“A flexitarian (弹性素食者) diet involves eating plant-based foods and only occasionally eating meat and fish. ”可知弹性素食者的饮食包括吃植物性食物，偶尔吃肉和鱼。根据第二段中的“it’s something people choose to help the planet. And a study into the global food system a... a sustainable future for all by 2050.”可知一项针对全球粮食系统和它如何影响气候的研究发现，到2050年，主要食用植物性食物是实现所有人（都有）可持续未来的三个关键步骤之一。结合这两点推断弹性饮食者的饮食能有益于环境。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“We really found that a combination of measures would be needed to stay within environmental limits and those include changes towards healthier more plant-based diets”可知.Dr Marco Springmann认为要保持在环境限制之内，需要结合一系列措施，其中包括朝着更健康、更以植物为基础的饮食方式转变。故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，本文主要说明了弹性素食者饮食的优点，它有益于环境，可以减少温室气体的排放，而A项和C项概念扩大，D项概念缩小。因此最好的标题是“选择弹性素食者饮食“，故选B项。
D
A Colourful Puzzle

People often wear clothing with colours that express something about themselves. A happy person might choose to wear a bright yellow shirt. A swimmer might wear a sea-blue dress.
Animals appear in different colours too, but they don’t get to pick what they wear every morning. Scientists have known for a long time about some of the ways animal colouring can be beneficial. They know that some animals’ colours attract mates or show who is boss. Other animals’ colours blend (融合) in with their environment; thus the animals cannot be seen by their enemies. Still, scientists do not fully understand why blue jays are blue or why rainforest frogs are golden. Now many scientists are working hard to figure out the puzzles of animal colours.
Part of the answer can be found in an animal’s habitat, the place where it lives. It turns out that many animals-especially birds, fish, and reptiles-can see more colours than humans can. These creatures notice colours that stand out in their habitat. For example, forests are mostly green, brown, and yellow. For an animal to be seen by others of its species, it would have to be a different colour than its background. That explains why you can find birds of many shades of blue living in forests.
Another piece of the puzzle lies in what an animal eats. Birds often eat things that have chemicals in them called “carotenoids” (类胡萝卜素). These chemicals are what make tomatoes red and bell peppers bright orange or yellow. When birds eat these foods, the carotenoids affect the colour of their feathers. For example, a cardinal’s bright red feathers will become lighter or darer depending on how many berries it has found to eat.
Some animals do not have any colour at all-but they are not just white; they are transparent (透明的)! Transparent animals live mostly in the ocean. This amazing wonder of nature came about because the animals needed a way to escape their enemies. They are often slow, defenseless creatures that would have no way of fighting back if larger animals wanted to eat them. Because there are few places to hid in the ocean, these creatures have to hide in plain sight. A good example of this kind of transparent creature is the jellyfish. A jellyfish’s body is almost all water, so it is very hard to see it floating in the ocean.
Animals come in all kinds of colours. Their colours are caused by many different factors, and most animals will remain the same colour for their whole lives. Think how lucky we are to get to change our feathers every day!
12. What is the main idea of this text?
A. Animals appear in many different colours.
B. Animals are unable to choose their colours.
C. Animal’ colours are caused by different factors.
D. Animals need colours to blend into their surroundings.
13. According to the text, what is the reason that some animals are transparent?
A. It marks the places they live in.
B. It shows the leader of the group.
C. It helps them to escape enemies.
D. It allows their mates to see them.
14. It can be inferred that why football players wear uniforms during a game is ________.
A. to identify group members B. to show their personalities
C. to distinguish the group leader D. to blend in with the environment
15. How is the text mainly organized?
A. By comparisons. B. Through classification and explanations.
C. In order of events. D. In order of importance.
【答案】12. C 13. C 14. A 15. B
【解析】
本文是一篇科普类说明文。介绍了鸟类呈现不同颜色的几个因素。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段以人穿不同颜色的衣服引出第二段中“鸟儿的皮毛颜色各异“这个话题，结合第二段中的最后一句和每段的首句可知，该文分析了鸟儿们呈现不同颜色的原因；栖息地，食物，天敌等。最后一段是总结，再次强调“Animals come in all kinds of colours. Their colours are caused by many different factors”，很多因素引起了鸟儿不同的颜色。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“they are transparent (透明的)! Transparent animals live mostly in the ocean. This amazing wonder of nature came about because the animals needed a way to escape their enemies.”可知，有些动物是透明的，透明动物主要生活在海洋中。这个神奇的自然奇观的出现是因为动物们需要一种方式来逃避他们的敌人。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“People often wear clothing with colours that express something about themselves.”在衣着方面，人们经常穿能反映出他们自身的颜色。根据常识可知，某个足球队的运动员穿的服装是统一的，这有助于他们在赛场上识别自己的队友。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。第一段以人穿不同颜色的衣服引出第二段中“鸟儿的皮毛颜色各异“这个话题，后面几段分析了鸟儿们呈现不同颜色的原因；栖息地，食物，天敌等,每个原因在相应的段落都有详细的解释，所以作者主要是通过说明和解释的方式来写这篇文章。故选B。

本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述跟室友相处应该注意的几件事，因为大学时期拥有室友和与室友相处是大部分人都会经历的一件事，不管愿意还是不愿意，我们都应该抱有一个良好的态度去对待大学的寝室生活，与室友友好相处。
【16题详解】
根据下文“However, it can also be a great part of your college experience”可知然而，这也可能成为你大学体验中一个很好的部分。根据However可以判断这题要与后句为转折关系，F项（拥有室友无疑是一个挑战。）切题。故选F项。

根据下文“It’s not fair to expect him or her to pick up on them right away, and communicating what you need is one of the best ways to get rid of problems before they become problems.”可知指望室友马上就接受你的生活习惯是不公平的，沟通则是消除问题的最好方式，C项（让你的室友从一开始就知道你的喜好）与此相呼应，且与段落小标题Be clear from the beginning一致，故选C项。
【18题详解】
根据第五段中的“Don’t borrow, use or take anything without getting permission first.”This may seem simple, but it’s probably one of the biggest reasons why roommates experience conflicts.”可知室友之间的冲突很重要的原因之一就是不经允许就是借用或者拿别人的东西，通过这段作者是想要告诉读者要尊重室友，不要不经允许用别人的东西。A项（尊重你室友的东西）能够总结全段。故选A项。
【19题详解】
根据前文“You should expect to learn and grow and change during your time at school. ”可知你应该期待你在学校期间能够学习，成长和改变，而根据后文 “As the term progresses, realize things will change for both of you.” 可知当学期进行时，要意识到你们两个都会改变，结合上下文可以得知不仅是你想改变，而且你的室友也想，故选G项（如果一切顺利，你的室友也会如此）。
【20题详解】
根据下文“No matter what your relationship is at the end of the year, you take comfort in knowing you act like an adult and you treat your roommates with respect, which is also what you want.”可知不管年末你们的关系如何，当你知道你表现得像个成年人并且你尊重你的室友时，你会感到很舒服，这也是你想要的。承接下文，B项（用你希望别人对待你的方式对待你的室友）切题，故选B项。

【41题详解】
考查定语从句。 此处Chinatown是先行词，在后面的非限制性定语从句中作地点状语，故填where。
【42题详解】
考查动词时态。 在That was the first time that...句型中，前面是was，所以从句中用过去完成时态，故填had noticed。
【43题详解】
考查代词。 此处用it指代前面的the food。故填it。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。 energy以元音开头，“很多年前中国有一个能源危机”，故填an。
【45题详解】
考查名词。 根据句意可知，此处缺主语，所以应该用名词形式，故填loss。
【46题详解】
考查形容词。 形容词修饰名词，valuable是形容词有价值的，故填valuable。
【47题详解】
考查介词。 句意：把肉和蔬菜切成小块。根据句意可知填into。
【48题详解】
考查形容词。 根据后面的more，可知此处用比较级，故填faster。
【49题详解】
考查非谓语动词。 此处是非谓语动词作后置定语，准备和是准备是被动关系，用过去分词，故填prepared。
【50题详解】
考查强调句。 It is/was… who/that结构是强调句型，强调了味道flavor，故填that。
【知识归纳】
1.It is the first(second---)time that 主语+现在完成时态+其他。意思是：第几次做某事了。如果把is改成was，则后面用过去完成时态。It’s the third time that I have come to the Summer Palace.这是我第三次来到颐和园。
2.It’s (high) time that 主语+一般过去时态+其他。现在是该做某事的时间了。It’s high time that we had lunch.现在是我们该吃午饭的时间了。
3. It is/has been+一段时间+since 主语+一般过去时态+---。自从---有多长时间了。在这个句型中since引导时间状语从句，从句用一般过去时态，分两种情况：（1）如果从句的动词是终止性动词leave/come/---，则表示“从动作开始到现在多长时间了。”It is three years since he began to smoke.他已经吸烟三年了。（2）如果从句的动词是持续性动词stay/smoke/live---，则表示“从动作结束到现在多长时间了”。 It is three years since he smoked.他戒烟三年了。
【知识拓展】
强调句型
1.强调句型的用法
在英语中，我们常用It is/was… who/that结构来突出强调句子的某一成分(一般是句子中主语，宾语或状语)。在这个句型中，it没有词汇意义，只是引出被强调的成分。如果被强调的成分是表示人的词，用who或that来连接都可以。如果是其它成分，则一律用that来连接。It is my mother who/that cooks every day.是我的妈妈每天做饭；It was yesterday that Tom passed in the maths exam.是昨天汤姆通过了数学考试。
2.被强调成分是主语，who/that之后的谓语动词应该在人称和数上与原句中的主语保持一致。It is I who am right.It is he who is wrong. It is the students who are lovely.
3.被强调部分既包括人又包括物，用that不用who。lt was the things and people that they remembered that they were talking about.
4.区分定语从句和强调句型某些定语从句和强调句型形式差不多，容易混淆。如果去掉it is/was ...that句子仍然通顺成立，则为强调句型，不成立不通顺，则为定语从句。It was three years ago that he went to American for a further study去掉It was that句子为Three years ago he went to America for a further study.句子通顺，意思完整，那么，这就是一个强调句型。

【解析】
【分析】
本文是一封祝贺信。祝贺对方获得了中国象棋网络挑战赛的第一名，告诉对方自己是多么的高兴，并希望和对方一起下棋共同取得进步。
【详解】1.考查不定式做目的状语。句意：我写这封信是要向你表示衷心的祝贺。 I am writing to offer…是固定句型，其中不定式做目的状语故在writing后加to。
2. 考查形容词。句意：作为你朋友，我只想让你知道我对你的成功有多高兴。这里高兴作表语，应该用形容词，所以将gladly改成glad。
3. 考查名词的单复数。句意：在过去的几年里，你对中国象棋表现出了极大的兴趣。根据前面的few。这里表达的是“几年”，所以要用year的复数形式，故将year 改成years。
4. 考查时态。句意：在过去的几年里，你对中国象棋表现出了极大的兴趣。in the last+时间段，表示“在过去的多长时间里”，和现在完成时态连用。故将had改成have。
5. 考查人称代词。句意：你每天都坚持练习它。这里的代词指代chess，chess为单数，所以要用it指代。故将them改成it。
6. 考查固定句型。句意：你不仅读过很多关于中国象棋策略的书，而且还参加过各种中国象棋比赛。not only…, but also…为固定句型，故将and改成but。
7. 考查介词。句意：你不仅读过很多关于中国象棋策略的书，而且还参加过各种中国象棋比赛，compete in意为“参加”，是固定搭配，故将on改成in。
8.考查动名词。句意：终于，你在网络竞赛中获胜了!succeed in doing sth成功地做某事。故将win改成winning。
9. 考查固定搭配。句意：我昨晚如此高兴以至于我无法入睡。so…that意为“如此…以致于”，so与very的意义重复了，故将very去掉。
10. 考查定语从句。分析可知which we’ll enjoy ourselves是定语从句，先行词 the community club为地点名词，在非限制性定语从句中作地点状语，所以用where 引导。故将which改成where。
【点睛】在确定定语从句的引导词时，其中一条依据就要是根据引导词在定语从句中的语法功能进行选择。

比如 I will never forget the days when I stayed in Peking University.引导词 when 在从句中作时间状语。
在本文最后一句话中，分析可知which we’ll enjoy ourselves是定语从句，which是否正确就要判断一下引导词在从句中所做的成分。先行词 the community club为地点名词，在非限制性定语从句中作地点状语，所以用which引导这个定语从句是错误的，应该用where 引导。
