Plan your dream vacation to one of these excellent destinations.
St. Lucia
Abundant rainforests and splendid mountains are all reasons to visit this Caribbean island. St. Lucia offers the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. To take in the breathtaking scenery, plan to hike the Piton Mountains or dive in the waters of Anse Chastanet.
Banff. Alberta
This Canadian destination will bring out the explorer in anyone who visits. From hiking and whitewater rafting to skiing and snowboarding, Banff offers travelers an abundance of year-round outdoor activities. The Lake Louise Ski Resort is one of the largest in North America and the striking photo opportunities of the Canadian Rockies from Moraine Lake can’t be underestimated (低估).
Machu Picchu
According to travelers, a visit to this Peruvian UNESCO World Heritage (遗产) site is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Located in the Andes Mountains, it is the most familiar icon (象征物) of Inca civilization. Spend a few days accustoming yourself to the altitude in the neighboring city of Cusco, where you can experience a mix of Incan and Spanish cultures.
Great Barrier Reef
It’s easy to see why the Great Barrier Reef is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World – it stretches nearly 1,500 miles along the eastern coastline of Australia and features about 3,000 reefs, 900 islands and more than 1,500 species of fish. Travelers can see these amazing natural structures from the air or underwater. However, large amounts of coral bleaching (褪色) caused by rising ocean temperatures put this place’s continued existence at risk, so plan your visit soon to see this awesome sight up close.
1. What can you enjoy both in St. Lucia and Banff?
A. Hiking. B. Skiing.
C. Diving. D. Snowboarding.
2. Where may a historian choose to go?
A. St. Lucia. B. Banff. Alberta.
C. Machu Picchu. D. Great Barrier Reef
3. What do we know about the Great Barrier Reef?
A. It’s on the western coast of Australia.
B. It’s famous for coral reefs rather than fish.

B
When my sister Mertie told me she had put out tomato plants last summer, I was quite impressed.
Since she was a garden-beginner, Mertie researched exactly how far apart to space her tomato plants; what kind of fertilizer to use; how to keep away the bugs, etc. Once they were planted, she took care of them daily, anxiously awaiting the juicy tomatoes to appear. But, day after day, her plants were tomato-less while all of her neighbors who had also put out tomato plants were already enjoying the fruit of their labor.
Frustrated, Mertie gave in and went to the market to search fresh tomatoes. While paying, Mertie told the farmer her troubles. The farmer paused to think for a moment and then asked, “Well, what kind of tomatoes did you plant?”
“I think they were called Big Boy,” Mertie remembered.
“Well there’s your problem,” the farmer explained. “Big Boy and Better Boy tomatoes have a 95-day growing period whereas regular tomato plants produce fruit in as few as 70 days…you just have to wait a little longer for the Big Boys.”
With that new knowledge, Mertie went home with excitement, knowing they would be worth the wait.
Thinking about my sister’s gardening experience, I had to smile. She just didn’t know that Big Boy tomatoes took longer--neither did I--but once she discovered that information, she was no longer discouraged and upset about the lack of tomatoes on her plants. Instead, she was encouraged and excited to see them a few weeks later.
It makes me wonder how many of us have “Big Boy” dreams in our hearts, yet we just don’t realize that they are of the “Big Boy” variety so we are discouraged and worn out with the waiting process. Instead of waiting with excitement, we give up on our dreams and figure we must have done something wrong to stop them from coming to pass. Frustrated, we see other people’s dreams coming true, and we wonder why ours haven’t yet been achieved.
4. What is not mentioned in the passage when growing tomato plants?
A. Using suitable fertilizer. B. Keeping them well apart.
C. Watering them regularly. D. Controlling pests on them.
5. Why did Mertie’s tomato plants fail to produce at the expected time?
A. Because they were destroyed by her neighbors.
B. Because she grew the wrong kind of tomatoes.
C. Because she didn’t manage the garden well.
D. Because they required more time to produce.
6. What does the author compare tomatoes to in the text?
A. Goals. B. Experiences.
C. Time. D. Imagination.
7. What does the text intend to show us?
A. It’s better late than never.
B. A bad beginning makes a bad ending.
C. Success sometimes needs a little patience.
D. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. C
【解析】
本文是一篇故事。通过妹妹种西红柿的故事告诉我们要实现梦想,有时需要耐心等待。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段Mertie researched exactly how far apart to space her tomato plants; what kind of fertilizer to use; how to keep away the bugs, etc.可知Mertie给她种的西红柿分苗、施肥和控制害虫。没有提到浇水,故选C.
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据农民对Mertie 说的Big Boy and Better Boy tomatoes have a 95-day growing period whereas regular tomato plants produce fruit in as few as 70 days…you just have to wait a little longer for the Big Boys.可知Mertie 种植的西红柿品种Big Boy比一般西红柿生长需要的时间长,所以还需要一段时间才能成熟。故选D.
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中It makes me wonder how many of us have “Big Boy” dreams in our hearts, ……Instead of waiting with excitement, we give up on our dreams and……we see other people’s dreams coming true, ……可知我们内心有许多梦想,但没有意识到梦想的变化,在等待过程中我们可能遇到挫折后放弃梦想。作者在文中把西红柿比作了梦想和目标,故选A.
【7题详解】
推理判断题。妹妹精心种西红柿,但别人的西红柿成熟时自己的不行,当想放弃时才知道西红柿品种不一样,成熟时间不一样。作者通过这件事告诉我们要实现梦想,有时需要耐心等待。故选C.
C
One of the biggest problems when we are talking is the awkward silence. Encountering this situation is so uncomfortable that you would avoid meeting new people in the first place. In the past, I struggled with this and I even thought it had to do with my DNA or something… But later I learned that once you know how to keep those words flowing, you can meet and talk to anyone you like, which helps create great possibilities for friendship, fun and shared activities that you would otherwise have missed out on.
After studying this in depth, I had different opinions and found that one of these common behaviors is the habit of filtering (过滤)--holding back from saying something until you’ve “checked” to make sure that what you’re about to say is cool, impressive and interesting. Another problem is not learning to get in the mood for conversation. If you don’t know how to change from subjects, then it can take a lot of time to warm up.
It is the reflex (习惯性思维) that allows you to say whatever goes on in your mind. It’s fun to realize that you’re allowed to say whatever is on your mind. As long as you don’t say anything that could land you in jail (监狱).
All of the “Oh! That’s interesting…” “Hmm, I’ve never heard of that” “Hmm, cool!” expressions are reactionary (保守的) bits of conversation that prove to the other person that you’re really listening. This works 99% of the time. So, if you show some interest, they’ll hang around and want to talk to you even more.
Everyone knows that stories juice-up conversations, but most people only talk about stories of their own lives. When someone mentions something related to any of them, just tell the story, even if it’s not from your life. The more interesting, stranger or more frightening they are, the harder they are to forget.
8. If people can deal with the awkward silence, they can .
A. train their working skill B. improve their life quality
C. enrich their social life D. establish their working relationship
9. When talking with others, we should .
A. feel nervous B. think twice
C. be free to express D. avoid breaking in
10. According to the passage, what do the speakers care much about?
A. The attractive topics of conversation.
B. The atmosphere of the conversation.
C. The listener’s experiences and tastes.
D. The listener’s curiosity and concern.
11. What does the underlined part “juice-up conversations” mean?
A. making conversations more boring B. making conversations livelier
C. making conversations smoother D. making conversations more relaxing
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇说明文,为了避免谈话时陷入沉默,我们要表达内心所想,谈论听者感兴趣的话题和生动有趣的故事。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段But later I learned that once you know how to keep those words flowing, you can meet and talk to anyone you like, which helps create great possibilities for friendship, fun and shared activities可知如果在谈话时能打破尴尬的沉默,知道说什么,怎么说,就能为友谊,乐趣和共享活动创造巨大的可能性,就能丰富社交生活。故选C.
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段It is the reflex (习惯性思维) that allows you to say whatever goes on in your mind. It’s fun to realize that you’re allowed to say whatever is on your mind.可知习惯性思维让我们表达我们内心所想,意识到你可以说出你心里想说的话,是很有趣的。所以在和别人交流时我们应该自由表达。故选C.
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段All of the “Oh! That’s interesting…” “Hmm, I’ve never heard of that” “Hmm, cool!” expressions are reactionary (保守的) bits of conversation that prove to the other person that you’re really listening.和if you show some interest, they’ll hang around and want to talk to you even more.听者的赞美之词和他们有兴趣想了解更多的好奇心和关注,是说者最关心的。故选D.
【11题详解】
猜测词义题。根据本段最后The more interesting, stranger or more frightening they are, the harder they are to forget.可知故事越有趣或越惊险,就越吸引人,听者就越难忘记,这说明了故事在谈话中的重要性。划线词语所在的句子指每个人都知道故事会让对话变得生动有趣,“juice-up conversations”指让对话变得生动有趣,与B项同义。故选B.
【点睛】本文的推理判断题主要是推测文章的观点或结论。小题1要求推断如果人们在谈话时能打破尴尬沉默的结果。根据第一段But later I learned that once you know how to keep those words flowing, you can meet and talk to anyone you like, which helps create great possibilities for friendship, fun and shared activities可知如果在谈话时能打破尴尬的沉默,知道说什么,怎么说,就能为友谊,乐趣和共享活动创造巨大的可能性,就能丰富社交生活。小题2要求推断与人交流时应该怎样做。根据第三段It is the reflex (习惯性思维) that allows you to say whatever goes on in your mind. It’s fun to realize that you’re allowed to say whatever is on your mind.可知习惯性思维让我们表达我们内心所想,所以在和别人交流时我们应该自由表达。小题3要求推断谈话时说者最关心的是什么。根据第四段All of the “Oh! That’s interesting…” “Hmm, I’ve never heard of that” “Hmm, cool!” expressions are reactionary (保守的) bits of conversation that prove to the other person that you’re really listening.和if you show some interest, they’ll hang around and want to talk to you even more.听者的赞美之词和他们有兴趣想了解更多的好奇心和关注,是说者最关心的。
D
Forcing waiters and waitresses to survive on tips from customers rather than normal wages is a pointless, crude, and unique American custom that, in the past several years, a handful of progressive restaurant owners have attempted to do away with. Danny Meyer, CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group, is about to join their ranks and has announced that he plans to gradually stop tipping at the company’s 13 restaurants.
What, exactly, is wrong with tipping? As Brian Palmer has explained, more or less it’s everything. To start, leaving a waiter’s pay in the hands of customers has a feeling of classism (阶级歧视).And in theory, handing restaurant customers the power to tip is at least supposed to motivate better service. This fails in practice because humans turn out to be pretty arbitrary (随意的) about their tipping behavior. Research has shown that the amount diners tip has very little to do with their level of satisfaction. All of this doesn’t encourage waiters and waitresses to do anything but turn over as many tables as possible.
Tipping is also very unfair to kitchen staff. The law allows restaurants to divide tips between front-of-the-house workers like waiters, hosts, hostesses, and bartenders (调酒师), but not cooks. This creates a system in which the people serving the food in a restaurant can earn more than the people preparing it.
One of the most fascinating parts of Meyer’s move is that, unlike some restaurant owners who have taken an anti-tipping stand, he won’t simply add a standard extra charge to diners’ bills. Rather, Union Square Hospitality Group means to raise menu prices enough to fully cover the cost of a meal. If Meyer manages to move away from tipping at all without hurting his profits, it would almost certainly set the stage for others to follow suit.
12. What’s Danny Meyer’s attitude towards stopping tipping?
A. Negative. B. Supportive.
C. Objective. D. Doubtful.
13. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?
A. Tipping may disturb the restaurants’ management.
B. Tipping will guarantee diners high quality service.
C. Tipping can arouse the staff’s enthusiasm for work.
D. Tipping will bring customers a sense of satisfaction.
14. What can we know about Union Square Hospitality group?
A. Brian Palmer is in charge of it now.
B. Its cooks earn much more than its servers.
C. Restaurant tipping has been totally banned there.
D. Diners will be charged more for the dishes there.
15. What is the topic of the passage?
A. Restaurants’ getting rid of tipping.
B. Difficulties that restaurants are faced with.
C. The popularity of no-tipping restaurants.
D. Tips on running restaurants successfully.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. A
【解析】
文章报道了Union Square Hospitality Group 的首席执行官Danny Meyer宣布计划逐步停止在该公司13家餐厅给小费,并介绍了给小费的不良影响及Danny Meyer这一举动的意义。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段Danny Meyer, CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group, is about to join their ranks and has announced that he plans to gradually stop tipping at the company’s 13 restaurants.可知Danny Meyer宣布他计划逐步停止在该公司13家餐厅给小费,这表明他对停止给小费是支持的,故选B.
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段leaving a waiter’s pay in the hands of customers has a feeling of classism (阶级歧视).This fails in practice because humans turn out to be pretty arbitrary (随意的) about their tipping behavior.和All of this doesn’t encourage waiters and waitresses to do anything but turn over as many tables as possible.可知给服务员小费有一个阶级歧视的感觉,由于人类的随意性并不能达到预期效果,起不到鼓励服务员的作用。这些都会扰乱饭店的管理,故选A.
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段Rather, Union Square Hospitality Group means to raise menu prices enough to fully cover the cost of a meal.可知Union Square Hospitality Group打算提高菜单价格,这样顾客就会为饭菜多支付钱,故选D.
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段Danny Meyer, …… has announced that he plans to gradually stop tipping at the company’s 13 restaurants.点明了本文主要内容,下文介绍了给小费的不良影响及Danny Meyer这一举动的意义。本文是围绕禁止给小费这一事件写的,Restaurants’ getting rid of tipping适合作为标题,故选A.

During gatherings in villages, women used the characters to write poems or song lyrics to express their emotions ____44____ were hidden from men. The words were full ____45____ encouragement and positive energy, and showed an uncommon open-mindedness among women at that time.
Ji Xianlin once said that Nushu is a feminist(女权主义者)symbol. “It’s ____46____ unique writing system created by ____47____(talent)women who were deprived(剥夺)of the right to education,” he wrote in an article. “It has significance in various ____48____(field)and represents Chinese people’s strong spirit.”

【答案】41. called
42. was taught
43. to attend
44. that/which
45. of 46. a
47. talented
48. fields 49. widely
50. disappearing
【解析】
这是一篇议论文。本文主要讲了女书的由来。女书是女性创作的来表达自己的情感,它是由才女创造的独特的写作体系,是女权主义的象征,代表了中国的精神。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。逻辑主语these slim words 与动词call之间是动宾关系,所以该空需用过去分词,故填called。
【42题详解】
考查被动语态。这里指的是女书被年长的女性教给女孩们,所以该句需用别的语态,故填was taught。
【43题详解】
考查不定式。allow sb to do sth允许某人做某事,其被动结构为sb be allowed to do sth被允许做某事,所以该空需用不定式,故填to attend。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。该句中的先行词为their emotions,在句中作主语,所以需用关系代词that或者which,故填that/which。
【45题详解】
考查介词。be full of充满,为固定搭配,这里指的是这些话充满了鼓励和正能量。故填of。
【46题详解】
考查冠词。这里指的是一个独特的创作体系,表示泛指,所以需用冠词a,故填a。
【47题详解】
考查形容词。这里指的是有才能的女性,所以该空需用形容词来修饰名词women,talented为形容词,意为有才能的。故填talented。
【48题详解】
考查名词复数。由various可知,该空需用复数形式,故填fields。
【49题详解】
考查副词。这里指的是今天在日常生活中不被广泛使用,这里需用副词修饰动词use,故填widely。
【50题详解】
考查动名词。From为介词,其后需接名词,代词,动名词,disappear为动词,所以该空需用动名词,故填disappearing。
第四部分 写作(共两节,满分35分)
第一节 短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
51.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词。
删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。
修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。

2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。
Is it necessary to practice handwriting? Some students consider handwriting least important than before. They preferred the keyboard to the pen now, for the former is fast, convenient and clear. They think it is waste of time practicing handwriting. However, others think Chinese handwriting is an important part of our traditional culture.
Though computers are very convenient, but handwriting still plays an important role in the modern world. Beside, beautiful handwriting makes a good impression in others. It shows your attitude to do things. Chinese character are very beautiful and rich in culture. As for me, when reading a neat written article, you will feel pleased and relaxed.
【答案】1. least -- less
2. Preferred—prefer
3. 在waste前加a
4. 删除but
5. Beside -- Besides
6. in -- on
7. do--doing 或删除do
8. character—characters
9. neat--neatly
10. you – I
【解析】
【分析】
文章讲述了学生们练习汉字书写的重要性。
【详解】1.考查副词比较级。根据句中than before可知含有比较的意思,形容词用比较级,不用最高级。important的形容词是less important,故least – less.
2.考查动词时态。此处表示客观事实,与全文时态一致用一般现在时。故preferred—prefer.
3.考查冠词。表示“一种时间的浪费”是a waste of time,“一种”用冠词a,故在waste前加a.
4.考查连词。在英语中表示“虽然…但是…”的连词不能同时使用,开头使用了Though,故删除but.
5.考查副词。句意:虽然电脑很方便,但书写在现代世界中仍然扮演着重要的角色。此外,漂亮的书法给别人留下了很好的印象。beside “在……旁边”,表示“此外”是besides.故Beside – Besides.
6.考查介词。“给某人留下好印象”是make a good impression on sb.介词用on,故in – on.
7.考查动词形式。句意:这表明你对(做)事情的态度。attitude to sth.或attitude to doing sth.其中to是介词,后用动词-ing形式。故do--doing 或删除do.
8.考查名词。此处指汉字是非常美丽的且富含文化,泛指“汉字”且与谓语are一致,主语用复数。故Character- -characters.
9.考查副词。此处修饰动词形式written用副词,指整洁书写的文章,故neat—neatly.
10.考查代词。与句中As for me一致,此处指对我来说,当阅读一篇整洁的文章时,就会感到高兴和放松。指“我”,故you – I.

Plan your dream vacation to one of these excellent destinations.
St. Lucia
Abundant rainforests and splendid mountains are all reasons to visit this Caribbean island. St. Lucia offers the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. To take in the breathtaking scenery, plan to hike the Piton Mountains or dive in the waters of Anse Chastanet.
Banff. Alberta
This Canadian destination will bring out the explorer in anyone who visits. From hiking and whitewater rafting to skiing and snowboarding, Banff offers travelers an abundance of year-round outdoor activities. The Lake Louise Ski Resort is one of the largest in North America and the striking photo opportunities of the Canadian Rockies from Moraine Lake can’t be underestimated (低估).
Machu Picchu
According to travelers, a visit to this Peruvian UNESCO World Heritage (遗产) site is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Located in the Andes Mountains, it is the most familiar icon (象征物) of Inca civilization. Spend a few days accustoming yourself to the altitude in the neighboring city of Cusco, where you can experience a mix of Incan and Spanish cultures.
Great Barrier Reef
It’s easy to see why the Great Barrier Reef is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World – it stretches nearly 1,500 miles along the eastern coastline of Australia and features about 3,000 reefs, 900 islands and more than 1,500 species of fish. Travelers can see these amazing natural structures from the air or underwater. However, large amounts of coral bleaching (褪色) caused by rising ocean temperatures put this place’s continued existence at risk, so plan your visit soon to see this awesome sight up close.
1. What can you enjoy both in St. Lucia and Banff?
A. Hiking. B. Skiing.
C. Diving. D. Snowboarding.
2. Where may a historian choose to go?

B
When my sister Mertie told me she had put out tomato plants last summer, I was quite impressed.
Since she was a garden-beginner, Mertie researched exactly how far apart to space her tomato plants; what kind of fertilizer to use; how to keep away the bugs, etc. Once they were planted, she took care of them daily, anxiously awaiting the juicy tomatoes to appear. But, day after day, her plants were tomato-less while all of her neighbors who had also put out tomato plants were already enjoying the fruit of their labor.
Frustrated, Mertie gave in and went to the market to search fresh tomatoes. While paying, Mertie told the farmer her troubles. The farmer paused to think for a moment and then asked, “Well, what kind of tomatoes did you plant?”
“I think they were called Big Boy,” Mertie remembered.
“Well there’s your problem,” the farmer explained. “Big Boy and Better Boy tomatoes have a 95-day growing period whereas regular tomato plants produce fruit in as few as 70 days…you just have to wait a little longer for the Big Boys.”
With that new knowledge, Mertie went home with excitement, knowing they would be worth the wait.
Thinking about my sister’s gardening experience, I had to smile. She just didn’t know that Big Boy tomatoes took longer--neither did I--but once she discovered that information, she was no longer discouraged and upset about the lack of tomatoes on her plants. Instead, she was encouraged and excited to see them a few weeks later.
It makes me wonder how many of us have “Big Boy” dreams in our hearts, yet we just don’t realize that they are of the “Big Boy” variety so we are discouraged and worn out with the waiting process. Instead of waiting with excitement, we give up on our dreams and figure we must have done something wrong to stop them from coming to pass. Frustrated, we see other people’s dreams coming true, and we wonder why ours haven’t yet been achieved.
4. What is not mentioned in the passage when growing tomato plants?
A. Using suitable fertilizer. B. Keeping them well apart.
C. Watering them regularly. D. Controlling pests on them.
5. Why did Mertie’s tomato plants fail to produce at the expected time?
A. Because they were destroyed by her neighbors.
B. Because she grew the wrong kind of tomatoes.
C. Because she didn’t manage the garden well.
D. Because they required more time to produce.
6. What does the author compare tomatoes to in the text?
A. Goals. B. Experiences.
C. Time. D. Imagination.
7. What does the text intend to show us?
A. It’s better late than never.
B. A bad beginning makes a bad ending.
C. Success sometimes needs a little patience.
D. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. C
【解析】
本文是一篇故事。通过妹妹种西红柿的故事告诉我们要实现梦想,有时需要耐心等待。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段Mertie researched exactly how far apart to space her tomato plants; what kind of fertilizer to use; how to keep away the bugs, etc.可知Mertie给她种的西红柿分苗、施肥和控制害虫。没有提到浇水,故选C.
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据农民对Mertie 说的Big Boy and Better Boy tomatoes have a 95-day growing period whereas regular tomato plants produce fruit in as few as 70 days…you just have to wait a little longer for the Big Boys.可知Mertie 种植的西红柿品种Big Boy比一般西红柿生长需要的时间长,所以还需要一段时间才能成熟。故选D.
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中It makes me wonder how many of us have “Big Boy” dreams in our hearts, ……Instead of waiting with excitement, we give up on our dreams and……we see other people’s dreams coming true, ……可知我们内心有许多梦想,但没有意识到梦想的变化,在等待过程中我们可能遇到挫折后放弃梦想。作者在文中把西红柿比作了梦想和目标,故选A.
【7题详解】
推理判断题。妹妹精心种西红柿,但别人的西红柿成熟时自己的不行,当想放弃时才知道西红柿品种不一样,成熟时间不一样。作者通过这件事告诉我们要实现梦想,有时需要耐心等待。故选C.
C
One of the biggest problems when we are talking is the awkward silence. Encountering this situation is so uncomfortable that you would avoid meeting new people in the first place. In the past, I struggled with this and I even thought it had to do with my DNA or something… But later I learned that once you know how to keep those words flowing, you can meet and talk to anyone you like, which helps create great possibilities for friendship, fun and shared activities that you would otherwise have missed out on.
After studying this in depth, I had different opinions and found that one of these common behaviors is the habit of filtering (过滤)--holding back from saying something until you’ve “checked” to make sure that what you’re about to say is cool, impressive and interesting. Another problem is not learning to get in the mood for conversation. If you don’t know how to change from subjects, then it can take a lot of time to warm up.
It is the reflex (习惯性思维) that allows you to say whatever goes on in your mind. It’s fun to realize that you’re allowed to say whatever is on your mind. As long as you don’t say anything that could land you in jail (监狱).
All of the “Oh! That’s interesting…” “Hmm, I’ve never heard of that” “Hmm, cool!” expressions are reactionary (保守的) bits of conversation that prove to the other person that you’re really listening. This works 99% of the time. So, if you show some interest, they’ll hang around and want to talk to you even more.
Everyone knows that stories juice-up conversations, but most people only talk about stories of their own lives. When someone mentions something related to any of them, just tell the story, even if it’s not from your life. The more interesting, stranger or more frightening they are, the harder they are to forget.
8. If people can deal with the awkward silence, they can .

D
Forcing waiters and waitresses to survive on tips from customers rather than normal wages is a pointless, crude, and unique American custom that, in the past several years, a handful of progressive restaurant owners have attempted to do away with. Danny Meyer, CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group, is about to join their ranks and has announced that he plans to gradually stop tipping at the company’s 13 restaurants.
What, exactly, is wrong with tipping? As Brian Palmer has explained, more or less it’s everything. To start, leaving a waiter’s pay in the hands of customers has a feeling of classism (阶级歧视).And in theory, handing restaurant customers the power to tip is at least supposed to motivate better service. This fails in practice because humans turn out to be pretty arbitrary (随意的) about their tipping behavior. Research has shown that the amount diners tip has very little to do with their level of satisfaction. All of this doesn’t encourage waiters and waitresses to do anything but turn over as many tables as possible.
Tipping is also very unfair to kitchen staff. The law allows restaurants to divide tips between front-of-the-house workers like waiters, hosts, hostesses, and bartenders (调酒师), but not cooks. This creates a system in which the people serving the food in a restaurant can earn more than the people preparing it.
One of the most fascinating parts of Meyer’s move is that, unlike some restaurant owners who have taken an anti-tipping stand, he won’t simply add a standard extra charge to diners’ bills. Rather, Union Square Hospitality Group means to raise menu prices enough to fully cover the cost of a meal. If Meyer manages to move away from tipping at all without hurting his profits, it would almost certainly set the stage for others to follow suit.
12. What’s Danny Meyer’s attitude towards stopping tipping?
A. Negative. B. Supportive.
C. Objective. D. Doubtful.
13. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?
A. Tipping may disturb the restaurants’ management.
B. Tipping will guarantee diners high quality service.
C. Tipping can arouse the staff’s enthusiasm for work.
D. Tipping will bring customers a sense of satisfaction.
14. What can we know about Union Square Hospitality group?
A. Brian Palmer is in charge of it now.
B. Its cooks earn much more than its servers.
C. Restaurant tipping has been totally banned there.
D. Diners will be charged more for the dishes there.
15. What is the topic of the passage?
A. Restaurants’ getting rid of tipping.
B. Difficulties that restaurants are faced with.
C. The popularity of no-tipping restaurants.
D. Tips on running restaurants successfully.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. A
【解析】
文章报道了Union Square Hospitality Group 的首席执行官Danny Meyer宣布计划逐步停止在该公司13家餐厅给小费,并介绍了给小费的不良影响及Danny Meyer这一举动的意义。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段Danny Meyer, CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group, is about to join their ranks and has announced that he plans to gradually stop tipping at the company’s 13 restaurants.可知Danny Meyer宣布他计划逐步停止在该公司13家餐厅给小费,这表明他对停止给小费是支持的,故选B.
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段leaving a waiter’s pay in the hands of customers has a feeling of classism (阶级歧视).This fails in practice because humans turn out to be pretty arbitrary (随意的) about their tipping behavior.和All of this doesn’t encourage waiters and waitresses to do anything but turn over as many tables as possible.可知给服务员小费有一个阶级歧视的感觉,由于人类的随意性并不能达到预期效果,起不到鼓励服务员的作用。这些都会扰乱饭店的管理,故选A.
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段Rather, Union Square Hospitality Group means to raise menu prices enough to fully cover the cost of a meal.可知Union Square Hospitality Group打算提高菜单价格,这样顾客就会为饭菜多支付钱,故选D.
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段Danny Meyer, …… has announced that he plans to gradually stop tipping at the company’s 13 restaurants.点明了本文主要内容,下文介绍了给小费的不良影响及Danny Meyer这一举动的意义。本文是围绕禁止给小费这一事件写的,Restaurants’ getting rid of tipping适合作为标题,故选A.

Ji Xianlin once said that Nushu is a feminist(女权主义者)symbol. “It’s ____46____ unique writing system created by ____47____(talent)women who were deprived(剥夺)of the right to education,” he wrote in an article. “It has significance in various ____48____(field)and represents Chinese people’s strong spirit.”

45. of 46. a

这是一篇议论文。本文主要讲了女书的由来。女书是女性创作的来表达自己的情感,它是由才女创造的独特的写作体系,是女权主义的象征,代表了中国的精神。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。逻辑主语these slim words 与动词call之间是动宾关系,所以该空需用过去分词,故填called。
【42题详解】
考查被动语态。这里指的是女书被年长的女性教给女孩们,所以该句需用别的语态,故填was taught。
【43题详解】
考查不定式。allow sb to do sth允许某人做某事,其被动结构为sb be allowed to do sth被允许做某事,所以该空需用不定式,故填to attend。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。该句中的先行词为their emotions,在句中作主语,所以需用关系代词that或者which,故填that/which。
【45题详解】
考查介词。be full of充满,为固定搭配,这里指的是这些话充满了鼓励和正能量。故填of。
【46题详解】
考查冠词。这里指的是一个独特的创作体系,表示泛指,所以需用冠词a,故填a。
【47题详解】
考查形容词。这里指的是有才能的女性,所以该空需用形容词来修饰名词women,talented为形容词,意为有才能的。故填talented。
【48题详解】
考查名词复数。由various可知,该空需用复数形式,故填fields。
【49题详解】
考查副词。这里指的是今天在日常生活中不被广泛使用,这里需用副词修饰动词use,故填widely。
【50题详解】
考查动名词。From为介词,其后需接名词,代词,动名词,disappear为动词,所以该空需用动名词,故填disappearing。

4. 删除but
5. Beside -- Besides
6. in -- on

10. you – I
【解析】
【分析】
文章讲述了学生们练习汉字书写的重要性。
【详解】1.考查副词比较级。根据句中than before可知含有比较的意思,形容词用比较级,不用最高级。important的形容词是less important,故least – less.
2.考查动词时态。此处表示客观事实,与全文时态一致用一般现在时。故preferred—prefer.
3.考查冠词。表示“一种时间的浪费”是a waste of time,“一种”用冠词a,故在waste前加a.
4.考查连词。在英语中表示“虽然…但是…”的连词不能同时使用,开头使用了Though,故删除but.
5.考查副词。句意:虽然电脑很方便,但书写在现代世界中仍然扮演着重要的角色。此外,漂亮的书法给别人留下了很好的印象。beside “在……旁边”,表示“此外”是besides.故Beside – Besides.
6.考查介词。“给某人留下好印象”是make a good impression on sb.介词用on,故in – on.
7.考查动词形式。句意:这表明你对(做)事情的态度。attitude to sth.或attitude to doing sth.其中to是介词,后用动词-ing形式。故do--doing 或删除do.
8.考查名词。此处指汉字是非常美丽的且富含文化,泛指“汉字”且与谓语are一致,主语用复数。故Character- -characters.
9.考查副词。此处修饰动词形式written用副词,指整洁书写的文章,故neat—neatly.
10.考查代词。与句中As for me一致,此处指对我来说,当阅读一篇整洁的文章时,就会感到高兴和放松。指“我”,故you – I.
