3.The shocking news made me realize ________ terrible problems we would face.
A. what B. how
C. that D. why
【答案】B
【解析】
句意：这一惊人的消息让我意识到我们会面临多么可怕的问题。本题考查感叹句作宾语从句。感叹句中what所修饰的中心词是名词，how所修饰的中心词是形容词或副词。此题中空格处后面部分的中心词是名词problems，所以选A项。
4.The crazy fans ________ patiently for two hours, and they would wait till the movie star arrived.
A. were waiting B. had been waiting
C. had waited D. would wait
【答案】B
【解析】
考查时态，由后面的and they would wait till the movie star arrived.可知是过去时态，由时间状语two hours，可知是进行时态，所以用过去完成进行时态，所以选B
5.________ the program, they have to stay there for another two weeks.
A. Not completing B. Not completed
C. Not having completed D. Having not completed

考点：考查现在分词的完成式做状语，
点评：分词做状语的时候，如果动词与名词构成主动关系，就使用现在分词的形式；如果二者构成被动关系就使用过去分词的形式。如果从句的动作先于主句的动作，要用现在分词的完成式
6.Let Harry play with your toys as well, Clare — you must learn to ________.
A. support B. care
C. spare D. share
【答案】D
【解析】
试题分析：考查动词辨析。A支持；B 关心； C 抽出时间；D 分享；共享；根据句意：让亨利也跟你玩玩具，你必须学会分享。故D正确。
考点：考查动词辨析。
7.Why do you want a new job ______ you’ve got such a good one already?

C. which D. when
【答案】D
【解析】
考查连词。That因为；where在哪儿；which哪一个；when既然，当……时。句意：既然你已经有如此好的一份工作，为什么还想要一份新工作？故选D。
8.The living room is clean and tidy, with a dining table already ________ for a meal to be cooked.
A. laid B. laying
C. to lay D. being laid
【答案】A
【解析】
with + 宾语 + 动词-ing 形式（即现在分词）表示动词 -ing 形式表示动作正在发生；with + 宾语 + 动词不定式表示一个动作过程或即将发生的动作；with + 宾语 + 过去分词表达被动含义。句意：客厅干净而整洁，餐桌已经为要做的饭准备好了。选A。
考点：考查非谓语动词。
9.It was in that small house ________ was built with stones by his father ________ he spent his childhood.
A. that; where B. which; that
C. which; which D. that; which
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句和强调句型。第一空是定语从句，先行词是the small house，which指代先行词在句中做主语；第二空的that与it was构成强调句型，对中间的in the house which was built with stones进行强调。强调句型的基本结构为：it is/was+被强调成分+that/who+其它成分；强调句型的最大特点是把it is/was…that/who…去掉，句子仍然成立。句意：就是他父亲又石头建成的小房子里他度过了他的童年。故B选项正确。
【点睛】在考试中，经常要把强调句型和定语从句融合在一起考查。强调句型的基本结构为：it is/was+被强调成分+that/who+其它成分；强调句型的最大特点是把it is/was…that/who…去掉，句子仍然成立。
强调句与定语从句的比较：
1.强调句中的It没有实际意义，It be与that可同时被省略;而定语从句中的It是主语，It be与that不可同时省略；
2.强调句型中be的时态须跟后面句子的时态相一致；而定语从句中主句谓语动词be的时态须由主句的时间确定；
3.强调句型句子中的that不能省略，并且即使前面的名词是事物时，也不能将that换成which；而定语从句中的that作宾语时可被省略，并且当先行词是事物时可用which代替；
4.当it be后面的时间、地点名词做主语、宾语或表语时，引导词可用that / which；而作其他成分时，引导词须用when / which。
定语从句是由关系代词和关系副词引导的从句，其作用是作定语修饰主句的某个成分，定语从句分为限定性和非限定性从句两种。
10.School children must be taught how to deal with dangerous ________.
A. states B. conditions
C. situations D. positions
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查名词辨析。A. states状态；B. conditions条件；C. situations情况；D. positions位置。句意：必须教育学龄儿童如何应对危险的情况。故C选项正确。
11.－ Mike, our team will play against the Rockets this weekend. I am sure we will win.
－ ________!
A. Congratulations B. Cheers
C. Best wishes D. Good luck
【答案】D
【解析】
考查交际用语。Congratulations 意为祝贺你 cheers意为干杯 best wishes 意为致以最美好的祝愿 good luck 祝你好运。
句意为----麦克，我们队将会在这个周末和火箭队比赛，我确信我们会赢的。
----祝你们好运。
12.At the meeting they discussed three different ________ to the study of mathematics.
A. approaches B. means
C. methods D. ways
【答案】A
【解析】
试题分析：考查近义词辨析：这几个词都有“方式，方法”，但用法不同：A. approaches后面搭配to （doing sth），to是介词，B. means 和C. methods都是接of doing sth D. ways后面接of doing或to do sth，从横线后面的to the study of English grammar.可知to是介词，句意：在会议上他们讨论了三个学英语语法的不同方法。应该选A。
考点：考查近义词辨析
点评：词汇辨析是试卷中必然出现的题型，所以平时一定要把词汇放在句中进行记忆。在复习词汇的时候，要依据语言的横向组合和纵向聚合，按照点-线-面顺序，构建知识网络环境，对知识内容进行巩固、深化和提升，这样才能提高复习知识点的效率。这样，再做单项填空题时，就会觉得游刃有余。对于英语中的词汇用法，平时要多归纳总结，词汇用法的特殊语法规则更要特别记忆。最好把词汇放在句子中，连同句子一起记忆，这样能够加强记忆。
13.That’s an unpleasant thing to say about your father after ________ he’s done for you.
A. something B. anything
C. all D. that
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查代词及定语从句。句意：在你父亲为你做了所有一切之后再说你父亲(的坏话)是件令人不愉快的事。句中all作介词after的宾语，又作后面定语从句的先行词，all后面的关系代词that在短语从句中做宾语，可以省略。故C选项正确。
14.－ What does the sign over there read?
－ “No person ________ smoke or carry a lighted cigarette, cigar or pipe in this area.”
A. will B. shall
C. may D. must
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查情态动词。—那边那个标志上说什么？—在这一区域，不准吸烟或携带点燃的雪茄、香烟或烟斗。A. will表意愿；B. shall用于第二、三人称，表示命令、警告、威胁、许可等；C. may表可能； D. must必须。故B选项正确。
15.They were abroad during the months when we were carrying out the investigation, or they __________to our help.
A. would have come B. could come
C. have come D. had come
【答案】A
【解析】
试题分析：本句考查的是一个含蓄的虚拟条件句，句中的or相当于if they had not gone abroad.因为前面句中使用的是were，说明这个虚拟语气是与过去事实相反，所以主句中使用的是“情态动词+have done”的形式。句意：当我们在做调查的那几个月里，他们一直在国外，否则的话他们早就来帮助我们了。故A正确。

B
From childhood, Moira loved to write. Throughout school she enjoyed writing, but pursuing it professionally was never a possibility. Her father was a doctor, her mother a nurse. “Medicine was a fairly safe choice,” Moira says, “and writing was a career where it wasn’t a certainty that you’d have high income.”
She became a doctor but still wanted to write something. However, being a doctor was so demanding that she didn’t take up writing until her thirties. She produced a novel—a fictionalized version of her travel in China after university. She got excellent reviews. Moira sent it off to as many agents as she could find, and found one who wanted to represent her. Suddenly, it seemed she was on her way as an author.
“I had one lengthy phone call with the agent where we went through all possible areas that she thought needed polishing. I worked on those and sent it back to her but didn’t hear anything.” It wasn’t long before Moira found another agent who was interested if she was willing to rewrite it from the first person to the third person. She did the hard work and sent it off again. “I got back a really brief letter: ‘Thank you, I’m no longer interested.’ It was really disappointing.”
A decade went by, and Moira found herself eager to write again, this time purely for her own enjoyment. She set herself the challenge of creating a thriller and chose Western Australia as her setting.
As she was writing just for herself, something surprising began to happen. “The characters took on a life of their own; they started doing things I hadn’t thought about. It just flew.” One day, an agent called from Australia. Three weeks later, Moira had a publication deal. Her novel, Cicada, was published in March.
“Even if it hadn’t been published I still gained so much from the process,” says Moira.
41. What do we know about Moira?
A. She was a writer. B. She was a doctor.
C. She was an agent. D. She was a nurse.
42. What does the author imply about her first novel?
A. It was produced after she graduated from university.
B. It was published by one of the agents.
C. It was modified according to the agents’ requirements.
D. It was made into a thriller with Western Australia as the setting.
43. What made Moira write again ten years later?
A. The money. B. The setting.
C. The challenge. D. The pleasure.
44. What does the underlined word “flew” in paragraph 5 refer to?
A. Succeeded. B. Survived.
C. Broke. D. Failed.
45. What would be the best title of the passage?
A. An Adventure in China B. How to Be a Writer
C. Moira’s First Novel D. A Passion for Writing
【答案】41. B 42. C 43. D 44. A 45. D
【解析】

推理判断题。根据全文对Moria的描述可知，她从小就热爱写作，一直都没有放弃写作的梦想，她创作了以西澳大利亚州为背景的惊险小说，最终获得了成功。由此可知，D项“对写作的热情”适合做本文最佳标题。故D选项正确。
【点睛】依据逻辑推理猜测词义：运用逻辑推理猜测词义是使用最广考查最多也最易失分的猜词方式。要求考生具备整合分散、复杂信息的能力，充分利用上下文中相关的词汇并结合具体的语境，从形式和内容上把握语言之间的内在联系，理顺语言之间的逻辑关系，进而达到猜词的目的。在第4小题中，考生可以根据该划线词所在的上下文语境来推测其指代对象。根据上文Moria的小说一直没有被认可，下文One day, an agent called from Australia. Three weeks later, Moira had a publication deal. Her novel, Cicada, was published in March.可知，她的这部小说被出版了，这说明她的这部小说成功了。故A选项正确。

British writer John Donne once said: “No man is an island; every book is a world.” As an enthusiastic reader, I can’t agree with the latter part of the sentence more. Every summer, I endeavor to find some peaceful places where I can attack some classics without being disturbed. Thomas Hardy wants to live far from the madding crowd. I am no friend to chaos, either.
I read George Orwell’s 1984 in a New England beachside cottage with no locks on the doors, no telephones or televisions in the rooms. 1984 is a good book that needs deep reflection. Attempting Sound and Fury lying on the bed of a poorly-occupied motel, however, was less fruitful: I made it through one and a quarter volumes, but then my eyelids were so heavy that I couldn’t keep them open.
But this summer I find myself at a loss. I’m not quite interested in J.D.Salinger, say, or Frankenstein. There’s always War and Peace which I’ve covered some distance several times, only to get bogged down in the “War” part, set it aside for a while, and realize that I have to start over from the beginning again, having forgotten everyone’s name and social rank. How appealing to simply fall back on a favorite—once more into The Call of the Wild or Alice in the Wonderland, which feels almost like cheating, too exciting and too much fun to properly belong to serious literature.
And then there’s John Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath. This title does not amaze but confuse. We’re never short of sour grapes, but we’ve never heard of angry grapes. Anyway grapes are my favorite fruit of summer. These stone fruits can always make me feel cheerful and peaceful all at once.
46. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?
A. The author has a cottage in New England.
B. 1984 is a book that needs careful thought.
C. Both of the reading attempts were not fruitful.
D. Sound and Fury was set in a poorly-occupied motel.
47. What does the underlined phrase “get bogged down” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Get confused. B. Be carried away.
C. Be interpreted. D. Make no progress.
48. Why does the author say reading his favorite books feels like cheating?
A. He finishes them quickly. B. He should read something serious.
C. He barely understands them. D. He gets amazed by their titles.
49. What can we know about the author from this passage?
A. Thomas Hardy is his friend. B. He shows talent for literature.
C. He is quite forgetful. D. He is a literary-minded man.
50. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To share his reading experience.
B. To encourage readers to read books.
C. To introduce good books to readers.
D. To condemn the chaotic world we live in.

【48题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的How appealing to simply fall back on a favorite—once more into The Call of the Wild or Alice in the Wonderland, which feels almost like cheating, too exciting and too much fun to properly belong to serious literature.可知，作者认为阅读自己最喜欢的书，感觉就像作弊，太刺激太有趣了，不属于严肃文学。由此推知，作者认为自己应该读些严肃的文学作品。故B选项正确。

It is one of the oldest magic tricks in the book—a magician locks a woman in a box, with her head and feet sticking out from either end, and saws (锯) it in half. But when she finally jumps out of the box, the woman is unharmed.
This trick was introduced nearly a century ago. It has been around for some time, but it never goes wrong. Why is it so successful? The answer is simple: the human mind is easily fooled.
Our brain processes the world around us based on information that sensory organs, including the eyes, pick up. For instance, when we see a cow or a horse standing behind a tree, we automatically “fill in” the part of the animal’s body that is hidden from our sight. “So the brain is taking this kind of very sparse (匮乏的) information about the world and it’s generating this rich world by filling in information,” Stephen Macknik, a scientist at the Barrow Neurological Institute in Arizona, US, told Science magazine.
But since our brains are filling in the gaps, sometimes they get it wrong. They tend to be driven by our previous experiences and we expect things to go as they have in the past even if sometimes they do not.
This tendency explains magicians’ success in fooling people with well-known coin tricks. For example, when you see a magician throw a coin up and down in one hand and then fake a coin thrown to the other hand, you would naturally believe that the coin is in the other hand.
Apart from the information gaps, magicians also use the “blind spots” theory when doing their shows.
The most well-known experiment demonstrating this theory is called the “invisible gorilla (大猩猩)”, in which volunteers watch a video of two basketball teams. They are asked to count how many times the teams wearing white shirts pass the ball. In the meantime, a person dressed as a gorilla walks onto the court. But shockingly, half of the viewers don’t notice the gorilla, even when they appear to be looking directly at it.
Magicians employ this tactic (招数), what they call “misdirection”, in almost every one of their acts. They direct our attention somewhere else using comedy and music, which can make us miss stuff during the performance.
51. The magic trick is mentioned in the first paragraph to ________.
A. introduce the steps of the magic trick
B. prove magic tricks seldom go wrong
C. reveal how magic tricks are designed
D. get us to wonder how magicians trick the mind
52. We can conclude from the passage that the human mind is easily fooled because our brain ________.
A. may have difficulty remembering what we just saw
B. fills in information about the magic world
C. is influenced by our previous experiences
D. processes far more information than our sensory organs pick up
53. What does the underlined word “invisible” in paragraph 7 refer to?
A. Unnoticed. B. Unimportant.
C. Unpleasant. D. Unprepared.
54. During the “invisible gorilla” experiment, people watching the video ignore the “gorilla” because ________.
A. they don’t look directly at it
B. they are not interested in it
C. they are too focused on counting
D. they consider it to be a distraction
55. Why do magicians usually use comedy and music when they play magic tricks?
A. To get viewers to stay focused on the show.
B. To make the show more fun and exciting.
C. To draw viewers’ attention away from a secret action.
D. To create information gaps between magicians and viewers.
【答案】51. D 52. C 53. A 54. C 55. C
【解析】
本文为说明文。文章介绍了魔术表演的原理及技巧。
【51题详解】
推理判断题。第一段中提到最古老的魔术之一——魔术师把一个女人锁在一个盒子里，把她的头和脚从两端伸出来，锯成两半；但当她最终跳出盒子时，她并没有受伤。目的是为了引起读者的兴趣，让人们思考魔术师是怎么做到的。故D选项正确。
【52题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的They tend to be driven by our previous experiences and we expect things to go as they have in the past even if sometimes they do not.（它们往往是由我们以前的经验所驱动的，我们期望事情会像过去一样，即使有时不会）及第五段中列举的魔术师的硬币戏法可推知，人类的大脑很容易被愚弄，因为我们的大脑受我们之前经历的影响。故C选项正确。
【53题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第七段中的But shockingly, half of the viewers don’t notice the gorilla, even when they appear to be looking directly at it.可知，一半的观众并没有注意到打扮成大猩猩的人，即使他们看起来是在直视大猩猩。由此可知，invisible意为“没被注意到的”。故A选项正确。
【54题详解】
推理判断题。根据第七段中的They are asked to count how many times the teams wearing white shirts pass the ball.可知，这些观众被要求数穿白衬衫的队伍传球的次数，应该是太专注于计数而没有注意到“大猩猩”。故C选项正确。
【55题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的They direct our attention somewhere else using comedy and music, which can make us miss stuff during the performance.可知，魔术师们用喜剧和音乐把我们的注意力从一个秘密动作上转移到其他地方。故C选项正确。
第Ⅱ卷
第三部分：写作
第一节：阅读表达 (共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分10分)
阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
My dad is a kind, gentle man, and a man of few words. Throughout my life, he offered advice rarely. But the words were always appropriate to the situation I was facing.
As a teen when I struggled with making sense of the world around me, he said, “All things are relative.” He taught me the right view of the world. When I was offered the opportunity to be a manager of an organization as an undergraduate student, I asked him for advice because he was a senior manager of a large company. His advice was simple, “Only when you become the manager can you have a vision for how you can make the organization better; management isn’t about power and it’s about leadership.” I learned what I needed was not only to be responsible for my team but also to have leading ability. When I was feeling down, he explained, “Think that you make the wrong choices in life, sometimes.”
My dad is 86 now, living on his own and enjoying life while struggling with the challenges that aging brings. He keeps a positive attitude despite long pain and the losses that come in life. Although we live quite far away from each other, we talk daily on the phone, and he shares the joys of my young family. As I tell him how we’re heading off cycling or on a trip or out to play tennis, now his typical response is, “Do it while you can.” This is very important. We can’t be sure of the future. My father’s advice is like the ancient dictum（格言）of “ carpe diem”— seize the day and enjoy it to the fullest.
My dad rarely “lectured me”. He trusted me, and helped me when I needed help. His patience and wisdom have been true gifts in my life. As I doubt my ability and my motivation, I recall his most recent gift of wisdom, “Do it while you can”. It’s enough to “just get me started”.
56. Why did the author’s dad tell him “All things are relative.”? (No more than 10 words)
57. What qualities should a manager have according to the author? (No more than 5 words)
58. What is the purpose of the author’s father talking with him on the phone every day? (No more than 10 words)
59. How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? (No more than 10 words)
60. How do you feel about the ancient dictum of “carpe diem”? (No more than 20 words)
【答案】56. To teach the author the right view of the world.
57. Both responsibility and leading ability.
58. Learning (To learn) more about the pleasure of the author’s family.
59. His father’s words make him take action.
60. Open.(Answers may vary)
(One possible version: ) I totally agree with it, because I think one should seize the day to enjoy his life without regret.
【解析】
本文为记叙文。作者介绍了自己的父亲及父亲对自己的教导和启发。
【56题详解】
根据第二段中的As a teen when I struggled with making sense of the world around me, he said, “All things are relative.” He taught me the right view of the world.可知，作者的父亲说“所有的事情都是相对的。”是为了教给作者正确的世界观。考虑词数限制，故答To teach the author the right view of the world.
【57题详解】
根据第二段中的I learned what I needed was not only to be responsible for my team but also to have leading ability.可知，作者明白了作为经理他需要的不仅仅是对团队负责，还要有领导能力。考虑词数限制，故答Both responsibility and leading ability.
【58题详解】
根据第三段中的Although we live quite far away from each other, we talk daily on the phone, and he shares the joys of my young family. 可知，作者的父亲每天和他通电话的目的实际上是想分享年轻家庭的快乐。考虑词数限制，故答Learning (To learn) more about the pleasure of the author’s family.
【59题详解】
根据最后一段中的As I doubt my ability and my motivation, I recall his most recent gift of wisdom, “Do it while you can”. It’s enough to “just get me started”可知，当作者怀疑自己的能力和动机时，他会想起父亲最近赐予他的智慧——“趁你能做的时候去做”。这足以让我“开始”了。由此可知，划线句意为，父亲的话让自己行动起来。考虑词数限制，故答His father’s words make him take action.
【60题详解】
此题答案不统一，答题时要有立场、要有依据，同时注意字数限制。例如：I totally agree with it, because I think one should seize the day to enjoy his life without regret.（我完全同意，因为我认为一个人应该抓住这一天，享受他的生活没有遗憾）

________________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
【答案】As a senior high student, I strongly recommend that we should shorten the school time to 8 hours a day.
This will benefit us a lot. Firstly, shortening school time will certainly mean enough sleep to students, which in turn will make the students more energetic during the day. Besides, whether we will get good marks is decided not by how much time we spend at school, but by how efficient we are. Most importantly, with more free time, we can do something interesting and useful as we like, such as outdoor activities and community services.
In a word, I support the idea of shortening school time to 8 hours a day and I’m pretty sure that we’ll develop better.
【解析】
【分析】
本篇书面表达属于应用文，要求写一份辩论稿。
【详解】第1步：根据提示可知，本篇为一份辩论稿；你校英语社团要组织一次英语辩论赛，就“是否应该缩短中学生在校时间为8小时”的论题进行辩论，请你作为正方代表，写一份辩论稿，内容要点如下：（1）保证充足睡眠；（2）提高学习效率；（3）增加自主时间。人称使用第一人称，时态应为一般现在时和一般将来时。

3.The shocking news made me realize ________ terrible problems we would face.
A. what B. how
C. that D. why
【答案】B
【解析】
句意：这一惊人的消息让我意识到我们会面临多么可怕的问题。本题考查感叹句作宾语从句。感叹句中what所修饰的中心词是名词，how所修饰的中心词是形容词或副词。此题中空格处后面部分的中心词是名词problems，所以选A项。
4.The crazy fans ________ patiently for two hours, and they would wait till the movie star arrived.
A. were waiting B. had been waiting
C. had waited D. would wait
【答案】B
【解析】
考查时态，由后面的and they would wait till the movie star arrived.可知是过去时态，由时间状语two hours，可知是进行时态，所以用过去完成进行时态，所以选B
5.________ the program, they have to stay there for another two weeks.
A. Not completing B. Not completed
C. Not having completed D. Having not completed

考点：考查现在分词的完成式做状语，
点评：分词做状语的时候，如果动词与名词构成主动关系，就使用现在分词的形式；如果二者构成被动关系就使用过去分词的形式。如果从句的动作先于主句的动作，要用现在分词的完成式
6.Let Harry play with your toys as well, Clare — you must learn to ________.
A. support B. care
C. spare D. share
【答案】D
【解析】
试题分析：考查动词辨析。A支持；B 关心； C 抽出时间；D 分享；共享；根据句意：让亨利也跟你玩玩具，你必须学会分享。故D正确。

8.The living room is clean and tidy, with a dining table already ________ for a meal to be cooked.
A. laid B. laying
C. to lay D. being laid
【答案】A
【解析】
with + 宾语 + 动词-ing 形式（即现在分词）表示动词 -ing 形式表示动作正在发生；with + 宾语 + 动词不定式表示一个动作过程或即将发生的动作；with + 宾语 + 过去分词表达被动含义。句意：客厅干净而整洁，餐桌已经为要做的饭准备好了。选A。
考点：考查非谓语动词。
9.It was in that small house ________ was built with stones by his father ________ he spent his childhood.
A. that; where B. which; that
C. which; which D. that; which
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句和强调句型。第一空是定语从句，先行词是the small house，which指代先行词在句中做主语；第二空的that与it was构成强调句型，对中间的in the house which was built with stones进行强调。强调句型的基本结构为：it is/was+被强调成分+that/who+其它成分；强调句型的最大特点是把it is/was…that/who…去掉，句子仍然成立。句意：就是他父亲又石头建成的小房子里他度过了他的童年。故B选项正确。
【点睛】在考试中，经常要把强调句型和定语从句融合在一起考查。强调句型的基本结构为：it is/was+被强调成分+that/who+其它成分；强调句型的最大特点是把it is/was…that/who…去掉，句子仍然成立。
强调句与定语从句的比较：
1.强调句中的It没有实际意义，It be与that可同时被省略;而定语从句中的It是主语，It be与that不可同时省略；
2.强调句型中be的时态须跟后面句子的时态相一致；而定语从句中主句谓语动词be的时态须由主句的时间确定；
3.强调句型句子中的that不能省略，并且即使前面的名词是事物时，也不能将that换成which；而定语从句中的that作宾语时可被省略，并且当先行词是事物时可用which代替；
4.当it be后面的时间、地点名词做主语、宾语或表语时，引导词可用that / which；而作其他成分时，引导词须用when / which。
定语从句是由关系代词和关系副词引导的从句，其作用是作定语修饰主句的某个成分，定语从句分为限定性和非限定性从句两种。
10.School children must be taught how to deal with dangerous ________.
A. states B. conditions
C. situations D. positions
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查名词辨析。A. states状态；B. conditions条件；C. situations情况；D. positions位置。句意：必须教育学龄儿童如何应对危险的情况。故C选项正确。
11.－ Mike, our team will play against the Rockets this weekend. I am sure we will win.
－ ________!
A. Congratulations B. Cheers
C. Best wishes D. Good luck
【答案】D
【解析】
考查交际用语。Congratulations 意为祝贺你 cheers意为干杯 best wishes 意为致以最美好的祝愿 good luck 祝你好运。
句意为----麦克，我们队将会在这个周末和火箭队比赛，我确信我们会赢的。
----祝你们好运。
12.At the meeting they discussed three different ________ to the study of mathematics.
A. approaches B. means
C. methods D. ways
【答案】A
【解析】
试题分析：考查近义词辨析：这几个词都有“方式，方法”，但用法不同：A. approaches后面搭配to （doing sth），to是介词，B. means 和C. methods都是接of doing sth D. ways后面接of doing或to do sth，从横线后面的to the study of English grammar.可知to是介词，句意：在会议上他们讨论了三个学英语语法的不同方法。应该选A。
考点：考查近义词辨析
点评：词汇辨析是试卷中必然出现的题型，所以平时一定要把词汇放在句中进行记忆。在复习词汇的时候，要依据语言的横向组合和纵向聚合，按照点-线-面顺序，构建知识网络环境，对知识内容进行巩固、深化和提升，这样才能提高复习知识点的效率。这样，再做单项填空题时，就会觉得游刃有余。对于英语中的词汇用法，平时要多归纳总结，词汇用法的特殊语法规则更要特别记忆。最好把词汇放在句子中，连同句子一起记忆，这样能够加强记忆。
13.That’s an unpleasant thing to say about your father after ________ he’s done for you.
A. something B. anything
C. all D. that
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查代词及定语从句。句意：在你父亲为你做了所有一切之后再说你父亲(的坏话)是件令人不愉快的事。句中all作介词after的宾语，又作后面定语从句的先行词，all后面的关系代词that在短语从句中做宾语，可以省略。故C选项正确。
14.－ What does the sign over there read?
－ “No person ________ smoke or carry a lighted cigarette, cigar or pipe in this area.”
A. will B. shall
C. may D. must
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查情态动词。—那边那个标志上说什么？—在这一区域，不准吸烟或携带点燃的雪茄、香烟或烟斗。A. will表意愿；B. shall用于第二、三人称，表示命令、警告、威胁、许可等；C. may表可能； D. must必须。故B选项正确。
15.They were abroad during the months when we were carrying out the investigation, or they __________to our help.
A. would have come B. could come
C. have come D. had come
【答案】A
【解析】
试题分析：本句考查的是一个含蓄的虚拟条件句，句中的or相当于if they had not gone abroad.因为前面句中使用的是were，说明这个虚拟语气是与过去事实相反，所以主句中使用的是“情态动词+have done”的形式。句意：当我们在做调查的那几个月里，他们一直在国外，否则的话他们早就来帮助我们了。故A正确。

From childhood, Moira loved to write. Throughout school she enjoyed writing, but pursuing it professionally was never a possibility. Her father was a doctor, her mother a nurse. “Medicine was a fairly safe choice,” Moira says, “and writing was a career where it wasn’t a certainty that you’d have high income.”
She became a doctor but still wanted to write something. However, being a doctor was so demanding that she didn’t take up writing until her thirties. She produced a novel—a fictionalized version of her travel in China after university. She got excellent reviews. Moira sent it off to as many agents as she could find, and found one who wanted to represent her. Suddenly, it seemed she was on her way as an author.
“I had one lengthy phone call with the agent where we went through all possible areas that she thought needed polishing. I worked on those and sent it back to her but didn’t hear anything.” It wasn’t long before Moira found another agent who was interested if she was willing to rewrite it from the first person to the third person. She did the hard work and sent it off again. “I got back a really brief letter: ‘Thank you, I’m no longer interested.’ It was really disappointing.”
A decade went by, and Moira found herself eager to write again, this time purely for her own enjoyment. She set herself the challenge of creating a thriller and chose Western Australia as her setting.
As she was writing just for herself, something surprising began to happen. “The characters took on a life of their own; they started doing things I hadn’t thought about. It just flew.” One day, an agent called from Australia. Three weeks later, Moira had a publication deal. Her novel, Cicada, was published in March.
“Even if it hadn’t been published I still gained so much from the process,” says Moira.
41. What do we know about Moira?
A. She was a writer. B. She was a doctor.
C. She was an agent. D. She was a nurse.
42. What does the author imply about her first novel?
A. It was produced after she graduated from university.
B. It was published by one of the agents.
C. It was modified according to the agents’ requirements.
D. It was made into a thriller with Western Australia as the setting.

44. What does the underlined word “flew” in paragraph 5 refer to?

British writer John Donne once said: “No man is an island; every book is a world.” As an enthusiastic reader, I can’t agree with the latter part of the sentence more. Every summer, I endeavor to find some peaceful places where I can attack some classics without being disturbed. Thomas Hardy wants to live far from the madding crowd. I am no friend to chaos, either.
I read George Orwell’s 1984 in a New England beachside cottage with no locks on the doors, no telephones or televisions in the rooms. 1984 is a good book that needs deep reflection. Attempting Sound and Fury lying on the bed of a poorly-occupied motel, however, was less fruitful: I made it through one and a quarter volumes, but then my eyelids were so heavy that I couldn’t keep them open.
But this summer I find myself at a loss. I’m not quite interested in J.D.Salinger, say, or Frankenstein. There’s always War and Peace which I’ve covered some distance several times, only to get bogged down in the “War” part, set it aside for a while, and realize that I have to start over from the beginning again, having forgotten everyone’s name and social rank. How appealing to simply fall back on a favorite—once more into The Call of the Wild or Alice in the Wonderland, which feels almost like cheating, too exciting and too much fun to properly belong to serious literature.
And then there’s John Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath. This title does not amaze but confuse. We’re never short of sour grapes, but we’ve never heard of angry grapes. Anyway grapes are my favorite fruit of summer. These stone fruits can always make me feel cheerful and peaceful all at once.
46. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?
A. The author has a cottage in New England.
B. 1984 is a book that needs careful thought.
C. Both of the reading attempts were not fruitful.
D. Sound and Fury was set in a poorly-occupied motel.
47. What does the underlined phrase “get bogged down” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Get confused. B. Be carried away.
C. Be interpreted. D. Make no progress.
48. Why does the author say reading his favorite books feels like cheating?
A. He finishes them quickly. B. He should read something serious.
C. He barely understands them. D. He gets amazed by their titles.
49. What can we know about the author from this passage?
A. Thomas Hardy is his friend. B. He shows talent for literature.
C. He is quite forgetful. D. He is a literary-minded man.
50. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To share his reading experience.
B. To encourage readers to read books.
C. To introduce good books to readers.
D. To condemn the chaotic world we live in.

It is one of the oldest magic tricks in the book—a magician locks a woman in a box, with her head and feet sticking out from either end, and saws (锯) it in half. But when she finally jumps out of the box, the woman is unharmed.
This trick was introduced nearly a century ago. It has been around for some time, but it never goes wrong. Why is it so successful? The answer is simple: the human mind is easily fooled.
Our brain processes the world around us based on information that sensory organs, including the eyes, pick up. For instance, when we see a cow or a horse standing behind a tree, we automatically “fill in” the part of the animal’s body that is hidden from our sight. “So the brain is taking this kind of very sparse (匮乏的) information about the world and it’s generating this rich world by filling in information,” Stephen Macknik, a scientist at the Barrow Neurological Institute in Arizona, US, told Science magazine.
But since our brains are filling in the gaps, sometimes they get it wrong. They tend to be driven by our previous experiences and we expect things to go as they have in the past even if sometimes they do not.
This tendency explains magicians’ success in fooling people with well-known coin tricks. For example, when you see a magician throw a coin up and down in one hand and then fake a coin thrown to the other hand, you would naturally believe that the coin is in the other hand.
Apart from the information gaps, magicians also use the “blind spots” theory when doing their shows.
The most well-known experiment demonstrating this theory is called the “invisible gorilla (大猩猩)”, in which volunteers watch a video of two basketball teams. They are asked to count how many times the teams wearing white shirts pass the ball. In the meantime, a person dressed as a gorilla walks onto the court. But shockingly, half of the viewers don’t notice the gorilla, even when they appear to be looking directly at it.
Magicians employ this tactic (招数), what they call “misdirection”, in almost every one of their acts. They direct our attention somewhere else using comedy and music, which can make us miss stuff during the performance.
51. The magic trick is mentioned in the first paragraph to ________.
A. introduce the steps of the magic trick
B. prove magic tricks seldom go wrong
C. reveal how magic tricks are designed
D. get us to wonder how magicians trick the mind
52. We can conclude from the passage that the human mind is easily fooled because our brain ________.
A. may have difficulty remembering what we just saw
B. fills in information about the magic world
C. is influenced by our previous experiences
D. processes far more information than our sensory organs pick up
53. What does the underlined word “invisible” in paragraph 7 refer to?
A. Unnoticed. B. Unimportant.
C. Unpleasant. D. Unprepared.
54. During the “invisible gorilla” experiment, people watching the video ignore the “gorilla” because ________.
A. they don’t look directly at it
B. they are not interested in it
C. they are too focused on counting
D. they consider it to be a distraction
55. Why do magicians usually use comedy and music when they play magic tricks?
A. To get viewers to stay focused on the show.
B. To make the show more fun and exciting.
C. To draw viewers’ attention away from a secret action.
D. To create information gaps between magicians and viewers.
【答案】51. D 52. C 53. A 54. C 55. C

【52题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的They tend to be driven by our previous experiences and we expect things to go as they have in the past even if sometimes they do not.（它们往往是由我们以前的经验所驱动的，我们期望事情会像过去一样，即使有时不会）及第五段中列举的魔术师的硬币戏法可推知，人类的大脑很容易被愚弄，因为我们的大脑受我们之前经历的影响。故C选项正确。
【53题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第七段中的But shockingly, half of the viewers don’t notice the gorilla, even when they appear to be looking directly at it.可知，一半的观众并没有注意到打扮成大猩猩的人，即使他们看起来是在直视大猩猩。由此可知，invisible意为“没被注意到的”。故A选项正确。
【54题详解】
推理判断题。根据第七段中的They are asked to count how many times the teams wearing white shirts pass the ball.可知，这些观众被要求数穿白衬衫的队伍传球的次数，应该是太专注于计数而没有注意到“大猩猩”。故C选项正确。

第三部分：写作
第一节：阅读表达 (共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分10分)
阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
My dad is a kind, gentle man, and a man of few words. Throughout my life, he offered advice rarely. But the words were always appropriate to the situation I was facing.
As a teen when I struggled with making sense of the world around me, he said, “All things are relative.” He taught me the right view of the world. When I was offered the opportunity to be a manager of an organization as an undergraduate student, I asked him for advice because he was a senior manager of a large company. His advice was simple, “Only when you become the manager can you have a vision for how you can make the organization better; management isn’t about power and it’s about leadership.” I learned what I needed was not only to be responsible for my team but also to have leading ability. When I was feeling down, he explained, “Think that you make the wrong choices in life, sometimes.”
My dad is 86 now, living on his own and enjoying life while struggling with the challenges that aging brings. He keeps a positive attitude despite long pain and the losses that come in life. Although we live quite far away from each other, we talk daily on the phone, and he shares the joys of my young family. As I tell him how we’re heading off cycling or on a trip or out to play tennis, now his typical response is, “Do it while you can.” This is very important. We can’t be sure of the future. My father’s advice is like the ancient dictum（格言）of “ carpe diem”— seize the day and enjoy it to the fullest.
My dad rarely “lectured me”. He trusted me, and helped me when I needed help. His patience and wisdom have been true gifts in my life. As I doubt my ability and my motivation, I recall his most recent gift of wisdom, “Do it while you can”. It’s enough to “just get me started”.
56. Why did the author’s dad tell him “All things are relative.”? (No more than 10 words)
57. What qualities should a manager have according to the author? (No more than 5 words)
58. What is the purpose of the author’s father talking with him on the phone every day? (No more than 10 words)
59. How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? (No more than 10 words)
60. How do you feel about the ancient dictum of “carpe diem”? (No more than 20 words)
【答案】56. To teach the author the right view of the world.
57. Both responsibility and leading ability.
58. Learning (To learn) more about the pleasure of the author’s family.
59. His father’s words make him take action.
60. Open.(Answers may vary)
(One possible version: ) I totally agree with it, because I think one should seize the day to enjoy his life without regret.

_______________________________________________________________________
【答案】As a senior high student, I strongly recommend that we should shorten the school time to 8 hours a day.
This will benefit us a lot. Firstly, shortening school time will certainly mean enough sleep to students, which in turn will make the students more energetic during the day. Besides, whether we will get good marks is decided not by how much time we spend at school, but by how efficient we are. Most importantly, with more free time, we can do something interesting and useful as we like, such as outdoor activities and community services.
In a word, I support the idea of shortening school time to 8 hours a day and I’m pretty sure that we’ll develop better.
