第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将选项涂黑。
A
For the business traveler who’s all about efficiency: check out these hotels that will get you in and out with a minimum trouble.
When you’re pressed for time on a business trip, nothing can annoy you more than a slow hotel check-in process. On your next trip, try these hotels that offer a speedier check-in process.
◆ Marriott Detroit Airport
Another option for business travelers in a hurry: Marriott is rolling out its mobile check-in app to 325 hotels this year, including the Marriott Detroit Airport hotel. (I’ve tested the app itself but not for a real visit quite yet.) here is the basic idea: you download the iPhone or Android app. The night before, you can “check-in” virtually. When you arrive, you get an alert that the room is ready and your key, which is already tied to your reservation, is waiting for you at the desk.
◆Hyatt Regency Minneapolis
I happened to stay at this hotel recently and liked how fast the kiosk check-in works. The kiosk asks you to insert your credit card, similar to an airport terminal. The whole process took about 3 minutes. When I left, I was equally impressed with the fast check-out: An agent meets you in the lobby with, an iPad and asks for an email to use for a receipt. The big advantage: you never have to wait in line.
◆Radisson LaCrosse
The Radisson is trying to make the kiosk process even faster. At a few select hotels like the Radisson Lacrosse in Wisconsin，you use a mobile app to register and then receive a barcode by email or text. When you get to the kiosk, you can scan the barcode to get your key without any other steps required. It’s super fast. You can find this new check-in system at the Radisson hotels in Salt Lake City, Seattle, and Phoenix as well.
1. Which two hotels offer a mobile app for customers to check in?
A. Marriott Detroit Airport and Yotel New York .
B. Marriott Detroit Airport and Radisson LaCrosse.
C. Marriott Detroit Airport and Hyatt Regency Minneapolis.
D. Hyatt Regency Minneapolis and Radisson LaCrosse.
2. Which hotel will send you a receipt by email?
A. Yotel New York.B. Marriott Detroit Airport.
C. Radisson LaCrosse.D. Hyatt Regency Minneapolis.
3. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Checking out the hotels will make you in trouble
B. Three hotels that will make your life easier
C. Try these hotels that offer you comfort
D. Hotels for the travelers
【答案】1. B 2. D 3. B
【解析】
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据2. Marriott Detroit Airport中提到的“…Marriott is rolling out its mobile check-in app to 325 hotels this year,…”和4. Radisson: LaCrosse部分的句子“…at a few select hotels like the Radisson Lacrosse in Wisconsin, you use a mobile app to register…”可知，这两个宾馆都可以使用移动应用程序注册入住。故选B。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据3. Hyatt Regency Minneapolis中的 “An agent meets you in the lobby with an ipad and asks for an email to use for a receipt.”可知，这个宾馆通过电子邮件发送收据给你。故选D。

【名师点睛】在阅读中可以使用定位法与跳读法解决直接理解题。定位法即根据题干和选项所提供的信息直接从原文中找到相应的句子(即定位)，然后进行比较和分析(尤其要注意一些同义转换)，从而找出正确答案。跳读法即根据题干和选项所提供的信息跳读原文，并找到相关的句子(有时可能是几个句子)或段落，然后进行分析和推理等，从而找出正确答案。以小题1为例，我们根据题干中“two hotels offer a mobile app for customers to check in”可知询问哪两个宾馆为顾客提供手机软件注册入住，直接定位在2. Marriott Detroit Airport中提到的“…Marriott is rolling out its mobile check-in app to 325 hotels this year,…”和4. Radisson: LaCrosse部分的句子“…at a few select hotels like the Radisson Lacrosse in Wisconsin, you use a mobile app to register…”，因此可知这两个宾馆都可以使用移动应用程序注册入住。故选B。

When my father married my mother in 1943, he gave my mother a 1937 crown coin and told her to keep it in the back of her purse and not to spend it. This would mean that she always felt that she was protected and would always have money if she really needed it.
When I was married in 1970, my husband, who had heard this story, obtained a 1937 crown coin for me and I have always kept it in my wallet, and I have always had enough for my needs.
A friend recently fell on hard times, partly through external (外部的）circumstances and partly through poor planning. Friends and I have loaned her money, paid her bills, given her food, and even tried to teach her budget techniques, but none of them has been a solution. She has just slipped deeper and deeper into financial trouble and depression.
Last week she looked pale and unwell, very depressed and hopeless, very sad for a friend to see and I then thought about how the crown coin, a physical reminder of another's care and love had protected me, so I went to the bank for a $ 100 dollar-bill.
I told my friend the story and asked her to keep the $ 100 in the back of her wallet. It turned out that she didn't have a wallet, so she put the money in a little pencil case where she kept her coins. She immediately felt better—“I feel rich, and thank you for being a good friend,” she said, and we were both a bit teary.
I went home and remembered a little wallet I had that I’d never used, and thought, “I’ll give that to my friend. ” I opened it, and inside, found $ 100.
4. What did the 1937 crown coin from the author’s father mean to her mother?
A. His concern for her.B. His pity and protection for her.
C. His care and love for her.D. His pride and respect for her.
5. Where did the author’s friend keep the $ 100 dollar-bill?
A. In the back of her wallet.B. In a little pencil case.
C. In the pocket of her raincoat.D. In the layer of her suitcase.
6. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The author became rich all of a sudden.
B. The author's friend would receive a wallet as a gift.
C. The author's friend was not touched by her story.
D. The author felt uncomfortable when receiving the bill.
7. What can be the best title for the text?
A. A crown coinB. The help to a friend
C. A hard lifeD. A gift from my father
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了父母结婚时，父亲送给母亲一枚1937年的王冠硬币，让母亲时刻感到他的关心和爱，作者结婚时，丈夫也送她一枚王冠硬币，然后作者又运用这枚王冠硬币的影响（代表了另一个人的关心和爱）送给一个经济困难的朋友一张百元纸币放在钱包里保护她。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“This would mean that she always felt that she was protected and would always have money if she really needed it.”可知，结婚时父亲送给母亲一枚1937年王冠硬币意味着母亲总会觉得父亲在保护自己，并且需要钱时，她总会有钱，也就说这枚硬币代表了父亲对母亲的关心和爱，故C项正确。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“so she put the money in a little pencil case where she kept her coins”可知，作者的朋友把那张100美元纸币放在了小文具盒里，故B项正确。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“I went home and remembered a little wallet I had that I’d never used, and thought, “I’ll give that to my friend.”可知，作者将会把那个自己从未用过的小钱包送给朋友，故B项正确。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。文章一句就提到了父母结婚时，父亲送给母亲一枚1937年的王冠硬币，让母亲时刻感到他的关心和爱，文章由此而展开，作者结婚时，丈夫也送她一枚王冠硬币，然后作者又运用这枚王冠硬币的影响（代表了另一个人的关心和爱）送给一个经济困难的朋友一张百元纸币放在钱包里保护她，全文都是围绕“王冠硬币”而展开，故A项正确。
【点睛】文章标题题的难度在于需要高度的概括性，因此抓住关键词是关键，例如本篇第4题，文章一句就提到了父母结婚时，父亲送给母亲一枚1937年的王冠硬币，让母亲时刻感到他的关心和爱，文章由此而展开，结婚后的作者的钱包里也放有一枚王冠硬币，然后作者又运用这枚王冠硬币的影响（代表了另一个人的关心和爱）送给一个经济困难的朋友一张百元纸币放在钱包里保护她，“王冠硬币”贯穿全文始终，故A项（一枚王冠硬币）最能概括出文章内容。

C
When athletes at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics collect their medals, they'll not only be wearing something that celebrates their sporting performance, but something that symbolizes lastingness. For both the 2020 Olympics and Paralympics, organizers aim to make all of the gold, silver, and bronze medals out of used electronics. This strong message about how to make use of e-waste has gotten a lot of Japan involved.
Starting in April 2017, the Japanese Olympic Committee began collecting old laptops, digital cameras, smartphones, and other abandoned electronics. The initiative(倡议）has achieved great success. Already, the quantity needed for bronze medals has been met, and they're in the homestretch for silver and gold medals, meaning the collection process can pack up at the end of March.
When looking just at the number of cell phones collected, the amount of waste is shocking. In a period of about 18 months, a little over 5 million smartphones were collected thanks to cooperation with NTT DOCOMO. Japan's largest mobile phone operator allowed the public to turn in phones at their shops, which counted a lot in the project’s success.
After being taken apart and sorted, the small electronics underwent a smelting process to extract(提炼）all the gold, silver，and bronze elements. Thanks to this initiative, the worldwide struggle with e-waste will have a global platform. According to a study published by the United Nations University—44.7 million metric tons of e-waste were made in 2016. Only 20% of that was actually recycled. Unfortunately, this figure is set to rise significantly in the coming years, moving to 52.2 million metric tons by 2021. So while the Tokyo Olympics initiative might be just a drop in the bucket, it’s a good start in showing what the public can do if they're made more aware of the issue.
8. What can be learnt about Tokyo Olympics initiative from the passage?
A. E-waste in the world is increasing significantly.
B. It is easy to get elements needed from the used electronics.
C. Only producers of electronics participated in the project.
D. NTT DOCOMO contributed to the success of the project.
9. Which can best replace the underlined word “homestretch” in Paragraph 2?
A. starting periodB. collection effort
C. final stageD. hard search
10. What influence does the Tokyo Olympics initiative have?
A. It offers an effective method to solve the problem of e-waste.
B. It shows the power of advanced technology in daily life.
C. It saves the expense spent in making all the medals.
D. It encourages the public’s involvement in dealing with e-waste.
11. What is the writer’s attitude to the Tokyo Olympics initiative?
A. PositiveB. Negative
C. AmbiguousD. Indifferent
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
本文是一篇应用文，介绍了日本将回收利用废弃的电子产品中的金属，用于制作2020年奥运会奖牌。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“ In a period of about 18 months, a little over 5 million smartphones were collected thanks to cooperation with NTT DOCOMO. ”在大约18个月的时间里，由于与NTT Docomo的合作，收集了500多万部智能手机，故选D。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“ Already, the quantity needed for bronze medals has been met, and they're in the homestretch for silver and gold medals, meaning the collection process can pack up at the end of March. ”铜牌所需要的数量已经达到了，并且到了最后关头，也就是说，收集过程可以在3月底完成。 in the homestretch 固定短语，“最后关头”，故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“ So while the Tokyo Olympics initiative might be just a drop in the bucket, it's a good start in showing what the public can do if they're made more aware of the issue. ”所以尽管东京奥运会的提议只是杯水车薪，这是一个很好的开始，展示了如果公众对这个问题有了更多的认识，他们能做些什么。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据全文的描述，可知作者对于东京奥运倡议是持积极的态度，故选A。

D
You have probably heard of the Mozart effect. It's the idea that if children or even babies listen to music composed by Mozart, they will become more intelligent. A quick Internet search reveals plenty of products to assist you in the task. Whatever your age is there are CDs and books to help you taste the power of Mozart's music, but when it comes to scientific evidence that it can make you more clever, the picture is more mixed.
The phrase “the Mozart effect” was made up in 1991, but it was a study described two years later in the journal Nature that sparked real media and public interest about the idea that listening to classical music somehow improves the brain. It is one of those ideas that sound reasonable. Mozart was undoubtedly a genius himself; his music is complex and there is a hope that if we listen to enough of it, we'll become more intelligent.
The_idea_took_off,_with thousands of parents playing Mozart to their children, and in 1998 Zell Miller, the Governor of the state of Georgia in the US, even asked for money to be set aside in the state budget so that every newborn baby could be sent a CD of classical music. It was not just babies and children who were exposed to Mozart's music on purpose, even an Italian farmer proudly explained that the cows were played Mozart three times a day to help them produce better milk.
I'll leave the debate on the impact on milk yield to farmers, but what about the evidence that listening to Mozart makes people more intelligent? More research was carried out but an analysis of sixteen different studies confirmed that listening to music does lead to a temporary improvement in the ability to handle shapes mentally, but the benefits are short－lived and it doesn't make us more intelligent.
12. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?
A. Mozart composed many musical pieces for children.
B. Children listening to Mozart will be more intelligent.
C. There are few products on the Internet about Mozart's music.
D. There is little scientific evidence to support the Mozart effect.
13. Why did many people believe in the idea of the Mozart effect?
A. Because a study described it in the journal Nature.
B. Because Mozart himself was a genius.
C. Because Mozart's music is enjoyable.
D. Because Mozart's music makes people relaxed.
14. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 suggests that ________.
A. people were strongly against the idea
B. the idea was accepted by many people
C. Mozart played an important part in people's life
D. the US government helped promote the idea
15. What is the author's attitude towards the Mozart effect?
A. Favorable.B. Objective.
C. Doubtful.D. Positive.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. C
【解析】
本文属于新闻类文章。文章介绍很多人相信听莫扎特的音乐会让人更聪明,但是研究表明这种影响这是短暂的,并不能让人更加聪明。
【12题详解】
D
细节理解题。第一段的句子“..but when it comes to scientific evidence that it can make you more clever, the picture is more mixed” 但当涉及到科学证据表明它能使你更聪明时，情况就更加复杂了。分析句子可知没有什么科学证据来支持莫扎特效应的影响。故选D。
13题详解】
B
细节理解题。从文章第二段的句子“Mozart was undoubtedly a genius himself; his music is complex and there is a hope that if we listen to enough of it, we'll become more intelligent.” 莫扎特无疑是一个天才，他的音乐是复杂的，有一个希望就是如果我们听的足够多了，我们会变得更聪明。分析句子可知很多人相信莫扎特效应，因为莫扎特自己就是个天才，故选B.
【14题详解】
B
推理判断题。从第三段句子“The idea took off, with thousands of parents playing Mozart to their children…”很多父母给孩子听莫扎特的音乐，可知这句话表明这种想法被许多人接受，故选B项。
【15题详解】
C
【解题剖析】此题属于推理判断题中的-----根据用词风格，推断情感态度。-答案需要从文章的More research was carried out but an analysis of sixteen different studies confirmed that listening to music does lead to a temporary improvement in the ability to handle shapes mentally, but the benefits are short－lived and it doesn't make us more intelligent进行推断。
【答案定位】根据第四段的a temporary improvement in the ability to handle shapes mentally, but the benefits are short－lived and it doesn't make us more intelligent听音乐在处理问题的能力提高方面只是暂时的改善，伸出是好处是很短的，而且并没有让我们更聪明。.可知作者对莫扎特效应的影响持怀疑态度，
【推理关系】题干What is the author's attitude towards the Mozart effect? ☞ 文章内容 a temporary improvement in the ability to handle shapes mentally, but the benefits are short－lived and it doesn't make us more intelligent
【答案】temporary improvement in the ability to handle shapes mentally, but the benefits are short－lived and it doesn't make us more intelligent ☞C选项. Doubtful ☞关键词 temporary improvement，it doesn't make us more intelligent和Doubtful。
【名师点睛】推理判断主要的解题策略
根据用词风格，推断情感态度。一篇好的文章，其用词风格常常直接流露或蕴含作者的内心世界和情感态度。所以阅读时要善于捕捉表达或暗示情感态度的词句或短语，捕捉那些烘托气氛，渲染情感的词句，进而很好地洞察作者的思想倾向，是支持、反对抑或中立？对于选项而言，要分清选项中的褒义词、中性词和贬义词，以此对照全文。如：1）表示褒义的词语：positive赞成的，supporting支持的，praising赞扬的，optimistic乐观的，admiring羡慕的，enthusiastic热情的等；2）表示中性的词语：uninterested无兴趣的，不感兴趣的； neutral中立的；impersonal不带个人感情的；subjective主观的；objective客观的；temporary暂时的等；3）表示贬义的词语：disgusted感到恶心的，厌恶的；critical批评的；negative 否定的，反对的；suspicious怀疑的；tolerant容忍的，忍让的；worried 担忧的等。

Rich and Famous
Twenty years ago the most common ambition of American children was to be a teacher， followed by working in banking and finance， and then medicine． But today's situation is quite different．___16___ Instead they most commonly say they want to be a sports star, a pop star， or an actor-in other words，they hope to become a celebrity ．
According to experts， young people desire these jobs largely because of the wealth and the fame．___17___ Let's take athletes and singers as an example. Their careers are short-lived． Many athletes' best time only lasts a few years and singers can have a very limited career． The field that was once the focus of their lives becomes something they have little or no involvement in． As a result， they'll have a feeling of worthlessness and a lack of control．___18___ The truth is quite simple： they have been so far removed from it for so long．
In spite of these disadvantages， there is greater ambition than ever among young people to achieve that status． They are not satisfied just making a living-they want to be rich and famous． Globally， more and more TV shows provide talent competitions where winners can achieve their goals in just a few weeks or months．___19___ They unrealistically believe that this lifestyle is easily obtained and leads to great satisfaction．
While many people argue that there is nothing wrong with having such ambitions， others feel that this trend will finally lead to dissatisfaction as more and more people are unable to reach their goals．___20___That means they ignore the simple fact that great effort is needed before success． As a result， many people won't realize their childhood dreams， which could have a negative effect on their happiness．
A． The younger generation don't favor these professions any more．
B． In many ways this has been brought about by the celebrity culture．
C． Unfortunately， they do not always have a positive effect on people's life．
D． Besides， it can be difficult for them to adapt back to a normal everyday life．
E． People no longer have a sense of satisfaction once their goals have been achieved．
F． This quick way of gaining wealth and fame creates a celebrity culture among people．
G． The reason is that they don't realize it takes talent and hard work to be rich and famous．
