When a special occasion arrives, a colorful gift bag or a box often finds its way to a doorstep, an office desk or a mailbox. But once in a while, a present arrives at an unexpected moment as a reminder that someone is thinking about us.
Wanda Anderson of Richland, US, remembers such a gift. The rosebushes were finally in full bloom on that day in spring. Seeing roses always brings to mind Wanda's childhood memories. To this young girl, those flowers were a luxury. "We never had money to buy extra things, so even a tired rose was something to cherish," Wanda said.
Nowadays, to have a backyard filled with many different roses is pure enjoyment. Wanda especially loves the very first blooms. Her husband, Dale, devotedly tends the roses and knows this little fact about his wife. So, on this particular morning, he picked the very first flowers of spring, fresh from the garden. But as Dale came back into the house, he was met by a neighbor who had stopped in for a quick visit. As the woman turned to go, Dale graciously (有风度地) handed the roses to her. And even though their visitor insisted she didn't want to take them, she was repeatedly convinced that the flowers were hers to keep. "I told her I was happy for her to have the roses, but I really wasn't," Wanda said, recalling the emotions she was feeling right then.
Seeing her very precious first blooms go out of the door filled her with regret, and a bit of selfishness. Throughout the rest of the morning, Wanda argued with herself, knowing logically it was "better to give than to receive." Nevertheless, she wished she could have kept the roses for herself.
Later that day, the couple headed to the post office, where Wanda waited outside in the car. Then, without warning, an older woman suddenly appeared at the car's open window, with a bunch of multicolored roses in her arms. "These are for you," she said, giving the flowers to Wanda. "They're my first blooms this spring." Totally surprised and overwhelmed (不知所措的), Wanda thanked the woman and bent for a moment to inhale (吸入) the roses' rich fragrance. When she looked back, the mysterious visitor was gone.
To this day, that "special delivery" changed Wanda. Now, her very first blooms always go to someone else, as a reminder that someone is thinking of them.
4. Why does Wanda love roses so much? ______
A. She thinks that they stand for pure love.
B. She was given them often as a child.
C. Her husband always sends her roses.
D. She couldn't afford them when she was young.
5. How did Wanda feel after the neighbor left? ______
A. Worried. B. Upset.
C. Satisfied. D. Relieved.
6. What changed Wanda's opinion of giving gifts? ______
A. The flowers her husband bought her.
B. The gifts her neighbor gave back to her.
C. The roses she received from a stranger.
D. A mysterious delivery she got from the post office.
7. Why does Wanda always give away her roses to others now? ______
A. To show off her beautiful flowers.
B. To prove that she isn't selfish.
C. To surprise people she loves.
D. To show that she's thinking of them.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. D

Did you know that people who live in different parts of China have different habits and preferences?
For example, people from southern China prefer to eat vegetables, while people from north China like to eat meat. But what causes these differences?
According to a new study published in the journal Cell in October, gene variations (基因变异) might be responsible for these differences, Xinhua reported.
In the study, researchers from Chinese genome-sequencing (基因组测序) firm BGI collected genetic information from 141,431 Chinese women. The women came from 31 provinces and consisted of 36 ethnic minority groups.
The researchers found that there are six gene frequencies that are different among people from both northern and southern China. They found that natural selection has played an important role in the ways that people living in different regions of China have evolved, affecting their food preferences, immunities (免疫性) to illness and physical traits (特点), the New York Times reported.
The researchers reported that a variation of the gene FADS2 is more commonly found in northern people than it is in southern people. It helps people metabolize (新陈代谢) fatty acids (脂肪酸), which suggests a diet that is rich in meat. According to Xinhua, this is due to climate differences. Northern China is at a higher latitude, which means it's cold and dry throughout the whole year. This weather is difficult to grow vegetables in. Therefore, northerners tend to eat more meat.
The study also found differences in the immune systems of both groups. Most people in southern China carry the gene CR1, which protects against malaria (疟疾). This is because malaria was once quite common in southern China. In order to survive, the genes of people in the south evolved to fight against this disease. However, people in the south are also more vulnerable to certain blood-borne illnesses, as they lack the genes to stop them.
Genes can also cause physical differences between northerners and southerners. Most northerners have the ABCC11 gene, which causes dry earwax (耳屎), less body odor and fewer sweat secretions (分泌), The New York Times reported. These physical differences are also more beneficial to living in cold environments. Southerners are less likely to have this gene, as it did not evolve in their population.
8. What's the new study mainly about? ______
A. The genes of Chinese minority groups.
B. Habits of people from different regions of China.
C. Differences in the genes of people from different parts of China.
D. Physical differences between northerners and southerners.
9. A variation of the gene FADS2can help our body ______ .
A. store fat B. digest meat
C. fight disease D. control body temperature
10. The underlined word "vulnerable" in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to ______ .
A. unprotected B. uninterested
C. generous D. responsible
11. Compared with people in south China, most northerners ______ .
a.are immune to malaria
b.catch blood-borne illnesses easily
c.have less body odor
d.sweat less frequently
A. ab B. bc
C. bd D. cd
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D
【解析】
本文是一篇科普类短文阅读。文章主要讲述了基因变异可能是导致中国北方和南方人在饮食、免疫系统和身体上的差异。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段According to a new study published in the journal Cell in October, gene variations (基因变异) might be responsible for these differences,Xinhua reported.可知据新华社报道,10月份发表在《细胞》杂志上的一项新研究表明,基因变异可能是导致这些差异的原因。由此可见,中国不同地区人的基因差异。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段The researchers reported that a variation of the gene FADS2 is more commonly found in northern people than it is in southern people. It helps people metabolize (新陈代谢) fatty acids (脂肪酸),which suggests a diet that is rich in meat.可知研究人员报告说,FADS2基因的变异在北方人中比在南方人中更常见.它帮助人们代谢肉类中富含的脂肪酸。由此可见,基因FADS2的变异可以帮助我们的身体消化肉类。故选B。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段 However, people in the south are also more vulnerable to certain blood-borne illnesses, as they lack the genes to stop them.可知,然而,南方人也更容易受到某些血液传播疾病的影响,因为他们缺乏阻止他们的基因。由此可猜测出,vulnerable易受攻击的,易受伤的。故选A。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段 Most northerners have the ABCC11 gene, which causes dry earwax (耳屎), less body odor and fewer sweat secretions (分泌), The New York Times reported.可知据《纽约时报》报道,大多数北方人都有ABCC11基因,该基因可导致耳垢干燥、体味降低和汗液分泌减少。由此可见,故选D。

One day your pocket might power your smartphone. Soon you may never have to worry about your smartphone running out of juice. Your clothing will simply power it back up for you. That's the word from scientists at China's Chongqing and Jinan Universities in a study just published in the journal ACS Nano.
Researchers have been hard at work during the last few years trying to create wearable energy, or clothes that can charge things. The assumption is simple. People today rely heavily upon devices such as smartphones and tablets. And they're looking for ways to recharge these devices on the go. So if you could design clothing fabric that could make use of solar power -one of the most widely available and inexhaustible renewable energy sources - you'd be able to charge your various devices with ease.
Scientists have had some past success creating energy-harvesting fibers. But there was always one problem when they tried to fashion these threads into self-powered smart clothes: The fibers they designed got damaged during the clothing manufacturing process, namely during the weaving and cutting. The Chongqing and Jinan University scientists say they've solved this problem because the energy-collecting and energy-storing threads they created are highly flexible - each individual thread is easily bendable, and not simply the fabric as a whole.
The team's sample textile can be fully charged to 1.2 volts in 17 seconds by exposure to sunlight - enough voltage that your future smart T-shirt or smart dress might be able to power small electronics. It's durable, too; their research showed there was no descent in the fabric after 60 days. But don't worry that this means the fabric is similar to rough cloth. The scientists note their textile can be fashioned into numerous different patterns, and tailored into any designed shape, without affecting performance.
12. What does the underlined phrase "running out of juice" in Paragraph 1 mean? ______
A. Being lacking in energy. B. Wanting to have some juice.
C. Being picked out of a drink. D. Having some water running out.
13. Why could smart dress charge a phone? ______
A. A solar cell is attached to the dress.
B. The fabric of the textile contains current.
C. The fabric of the textile is easily bendable.
D. The fabric of the textile could collect and store the solar energy.
14. What is the scientists' attitude towards the scientific technology? ______
A. Optimistic. B. Pessimistic.
C. Neutral. D. Doubtful.
15. This passage is written to ______ .
A. persuade readers to buy new clothes
B. inform readers of the ways to use their devices
C. introduce new wearable energy to readers
D. remind readers to wear smart clothes
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. A 15. C

推理判断题。根据文章最后一段The scientists note their textile can be fashioned into numerous different patterns,and tailored into any designed shape,without affecting performance,科学家们制造的纺织品可以制成许多不同的款式,设计和定制任何形状,且不影响性能。该小组的样本纺织品可以通过暴露在阳光下17秒内完全充电到1.2伏特-足够的电压使你未来的智能衣服或智能连衣裙能够为小型电子产品供电。可见科学家对于这种材料的实验已经初见成效,所以未来这种衣服的制造是乐观的。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段One day your pocket might power your smartphone. Soon you may never have to worry about your smartphone running out of juice. Your clothing will simply power it back up for you. That's the word from scientists at China's Chongqing and Jinan Universities in a study just published in the journal ACS Nano.及全文内容可知,本文主要介绍了一种新型的衣服充电的设想和研究,介绍了一种新能源。故选C。
【点睛】阅读理解通常都会出现词义猜测题,要求考生从上下文理解中概括出生词或短语的词义。考生作此类题型时,首先要找到所猜测词所在文章的位置,然后在理解文章大意的基础之上,对此词前后句反复研读,最后根据前后句猜测出词义。例如小题1要求猜测出running out of juice的含义,就是根据前文句子One day your pocket might power your smart phone.你的口袋可能会给你的智能手机充电,后文Your clothing will simply power it back up for you.你的衣服会为你供电。可以猜测出这里说的是不用担心手机没电。从而推测出running out of juice之意。

When a special occasion arrives, a colorful gift bag or a box often finds its way to a doorstep, an office desk or a mailbox. But once in a while, a present arrives at an unexpected moment as a reminder that someone is thinking about us.
Wanda Anderson of Richland, US, remembers such a gift. The rosebushes were finally in full bloom on that day in spring. Seeing roses always brings to mind Wanda's childhood memories. To this young girl, those flowers were a luxury. "We never had money to buy extra things, so even a tired rose was something to cherish," Wanda said.
Nowadays, to have a backyard filled with many different roses is pure enjoyment. Wanda especially loves the very first blooms. Her husband, Dale, devotedly tends the roses and knows this little fact about his wife. So, on this particular morning, he picked the very first flowers of spring, fresh from the garden. But as Dale came back into the house, he was met by a neighbor who had stopped in for a quick visit. As the woman turned to go, Dale graciously (有风度地) handed the roses to her. And even though their visitor insisted she didn't want to take them, she was repeatedly convinced that the flowers were hers to keep. "I told her I was happy for her to have the roses, but I really wasn't," Wanda said, recalling the emotions she was feeling right then.
Seeing her very precious first blooms go out of the door filled her with regret, and a bit of selfishness. Throughout the rest of the morning, Wanda argued with herself, knowing logically it was "better to give than to receive." Nevertheless, she wished she could have kept the roses for herself.
Later that day, the couple headed to the post office, where Wanda waited outside in the car. Then, without warning, an older woman suddenly appeared at the car's open window, with a bunch of multicolored roses in her arms. "These are for you," she said, giving the flowers to Wanda. "They're my first blooms this spring." Totally surprised and overwhelmed (不知所措的), Wanda thanked the woman and bent for a moment to inhale (吸入) the roses' rich fragrance. When she looked back, the mysterious visitor was gone.
To this day, that "special delivery" changed Wanda. Now, her very first blooms always go to someone else, as a reminder that someone is thinking of them.
4. Why does Wanda love roses so much? ______
A. She thinks that they stand for pure love.
B. She was given them often as a child.
C. Her husband always sends her roses.
D. She couldn't afford them when she was young.
5. How did Wanda feel after the neighbor left? ______
A. Worried. B. Upset.
C. Satisfied. D. Relieved.
6. What changed Wanda's opinion of giving gifts? ______
A. The flowers her husband bought her.
B. The gifts her neighbor gave back to her.
C. The roses she received from a stranger.
D. A mysterious delivery she got from the post office.
7. Why does Wanda always give away her roses to others now? ______
A. To show off her beautiful flowers.
B. To prove that she isn't selfish.
C. To surprise people she loves.
D. To show that she's thinking of them.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. D

Did you know that people who live in different parts of China have different habits and preferences?
For example, people from southern China prefer to eat vegetables, while people from north China like to eat meat. But what causes these differences?
According to a new study published in the journal Cell in October, gene variations (基因变异) might be responsible for these differences, Xinhua reported.
In the study, researchers from Chinese genome-sequencing (基因组测序) firm BGI collected genetic information from 141,431 Chinese women. The women came from 31 provinces and consisted of 36 ethnic minority groups.
The researchers found that there are six gene frequencies that are different among people from both northern and southern China. They found that natural selection has played an important role in the ways that people living in different regions of China have evolved, affecting their food preferences, immunities (免疫性) to illness and physical traits (特点), the New York Times reported.
The researchers reported that a variation of the gene FADS2 is more commonly found in northern people than it is in southern people. It helps people metabolize (新陈代谢) fatty acids (脂肪酸), which suggests a diet that is rich in meat. According to Xinhua, this is due to climate differences. Northern China is at a higher latitude, which means it's cold and dry throughout the whole year. This weather is difficult to grow vegetables in. Therefore, northerners tend to eat more meat.
The study also found differences in the immune systems of both groups. Most people in southern China carry the gene CR1, which protects against malaria (疟疾). This is because malaria was once quite common in southern China. In order to survive, the genes of people in the south evolved to fight against this disease. However, people in the south are also more vulnerable to certain blood-borne illnesses, as they lack the genes to stop them.
Genes can also cause physical differences between northerners and southerners. Most northerners have the ABCC11 gene, which causes dry earwax (耳屎), less body odor and fewer sweat secretions (分泌), The New York Times reported. These physical differences are also more beneficial to living in cold environments. Southerners are less likely to have this gene, as it did not evolve in their population.
8. What's the new study mainly about? ______
A. The genes of Chinese minority groups.
B. Habits of people from different regions of China.
C. Differences in the genes of people from different parts of China.
D. Physical differences between northerners and southerners.
9. A variation of the gene FADS2can help our body ______ .
A. store fat B. digest meat
C. fight disease D. control body temperature
10. The underlined word "vulnerable" in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to ______ .
A. unprotected B. uninterested
C. generous D. responsible
11. Compared with people in south China, most northerners ______ .
a.are immune to malaria
b.catch blood-borne illnesses easily
c.have less body odor
d.sweat less frequently
A. ab B. bc
C. bd D. cd
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D
【解析】

【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段According to a new study published in the journal Cell in October, gene variations (基因变异) might be responsible for these differences,Xinhua reported.可知据新华社报道,10月份发表在《细胞》杂志上的一项新研究表明,基因变异可能是导致这些差异的原因。由此可见,中国不同地区人的基因差异。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段The researchers reported that a variation of the gene FADS2 is more commonly found in northern people than it is in southern people. It helps people metabolize (新陈代谢) fatty acids (脂肪酸),which suggests a diet that is rich in meat.可知研究人员报告说,FADS2基因的变异在北方人中比在南方人中更常见.它帮助人们代谢肉类中富含的脂肪酸。由此可见,基因FADS2的变异可以帮助我们的身体消化肉类。故选B。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段 However, people in the south are also more vulnerable to certain blood-borne illnesses, as they lack the genes to stop them.可知,然而,南方人也更容易受到某些血液传播疾病的影响,因为他们缺乏阻止他们的基因。由此可猜测出,vulnerable易受攻击的,易受伤的。故选A。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段 Most northerners have the ABCC11 gene, which causes dry earwax (耳屎), less body odor and fewer sweat secretions (分泌), The New York Times reported.可知据《纽约时报》报道,大多数北方人都有ABCC11基因,该基因可导致耳垢干燥、体味降低和汗液分泌减少。由此可见,故选D。

One day your pocket might power your smartphone. Soon you may never have to worry about your smartphone running out of juice. Your clothing will simply power it back up for you. That's the word from scientists at China's Chongqing and Jinan Universities in a study just published in the journal ACS Nano.
Researchers have been hard at work during the last few years trying to create wearable energy, or clothes that can charge things. The assumption is simple. People today rely heavily upon devices such as smartphones and tablets. And they're looking for ways to recharge these devices on the go. So if you could design clothing fabric that could make use of solar power -one of the most widely available and inexhaustible renewable energy sources - you'd be able to charge your various devices with ease.
Scientists have had some past success creating energy-harvesting fibers. But there was always one problem when they tried to fashion these threads into self-powered smart clothes: The fibers they designed got damaged during the clothing manufacturing process, namely during the weaving and cutting. The Chongqing and Jinan University scientists say they've solved this problem because the energy-collecting and energy-storing threads they created are highly flexible - each individual thread is easily bendable, and not simply the fabric as a whole.
The team's sample textile can be fully charged to 1.2 volts in 17 seconds by exposure to sunlight - enough voltage that your future smart T-shirt or smart dress might be able to power small electronics. It's durable, too; their research showed there was no descent in the fabric after 60 days. But don't worry that this means the fabric is similar to rough cloth. The scientists note their textile can be fashioned into numerous different patterns, and tailored into any designed shape, without affecting performance.
12. What does the underlined phrase "running out of juice" in Paragraph 1 mean? ______
A. Being lacking in energy. B. Wanting to have some juice.
C. Being picked out of a drink. D. Having some water running out.
13. Why could smart dress charge a phone? ______
A. A solar cell is attached to the dress.
B. The fabric of the textile contains current.
C. The fabric of the textile is easily bendable.
D. The fabric of the textile could collect and store the solar energy.
14. What is the scientists' attitude towards the scientific technology? ______
A. Optimistic. B. Pessimistic.
C. Neutral. D. Doubtful.
15. This passage is written to ______ .
A. persuade readers to buy new clothes
B. inform readers of the ways to use their devices
C. introduce new wearable energy to readers
D. remind readers to wear smart clothes
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. A 15. C

【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段One day your pocket might power your smartphone. Soon you may never have to worry about your smartphone running out of juice. Your clothing will simply power it back up for you. That's the word from scientists at China's Chongqing and Jinan Universities in a study just published in the journal ACS Nano.及全文内容可知,本文主要介绍了一种新型的衣服充电的设想和研究,介绍了一种新能源。故选C。
【点睛】阅读理解通常都会出现词义猜测题,要求考生从上下文理解中概括出生词或短语的词义。考生作此类题型时,首先要找到所猜测词所在文章的位置,然后在理解文章大意的基础之上,对此词前后句反复研读,最后根据前后句猜测出词义。例如小题1要求猜测出running out of juice的含义,就是根据前文句子One day your pocket might power your smart phone.你的口袋可能会给你的智能手机充电,后文Your clothing will simply power it back up for you.你的衣服会为你供电。可以猜测出这里说的是不用担心手机没电。从而推测出running out of juice之意。

【42题详解】
考查动词不定式。此处指这个活动还是与其他当地社区一起庆祝中国文化的机会,此处是不定式作chance的定语,故填to celebrate.
【43题详解】
考查动词形式。此处指这个节目以背诵弟子规为特色,与上下文时态一致用一般现在时,主语是the festival是单数,动词也用第三人称单数。故填features.
【44题详解】
考查过去分词。句中a book与动词write是被动关系,指书被写。用过去分词作定语表被动,故填written.
【45题详解】
考查形容词。此处修饰名词necessities用形容词,指基本的需要。故填basic.
【46题详解】
考查动词形式。句中介词for后用动词-ing形式作宾语,故填living.

考查名词。此处指孔子接收来自各行各业的学生,而不考虑他们的社会地位。介词without后加名词作宾语,故填consideration.
【点睛】分析定语从句关键抓住两点:第一、找准先行词;第二、看先行词在定语从句中所作的成分。先行词往往为名词或代词,如小题9中先行词是he指人,在定语从句中做主语,用关系代词that/who引导。故填that/who.

Dear Tommy,
I'm glad to hear that you are very interested for Guoxue(国学). Let me to give you a simple introduction.
Generally speaking, Guoxue refers to the excellent traditional Chinese culture, which include philosophy, literature, history, music, painting and so on. Guoxue has been playing an increasing important part in China, especially for us students. Not only it tell us how to study, but it also teaches us what to live. More and more Guoxue course are given in schools of different levels all over China.
If you want to get the better understanding of Guoxue, you are welcome to China to learn it, feel it and enjoy them. I'm sure you'll benefit from live in two different cultures. I'm looking forward to seeing you soon in China.
Yours,
Wang Kai

4.increasing→increasingly
5.it前面加does
6. what→how
7. course→courses
8. the→a
9. them→it
10. live→living
【解析】
【详解】本文是王凯写给 Tommy的一封信,信中王凯向汤姆介绍了国学的基本情况,以及国学在学生学习生活中的重要作用。
第一处:考查固定搭配。be interested in对……感兴趣。句意:听说你对国学很感兴趣,我很高兴。故将for改为in。
第二处:考查动词不定式。let是使役动词,后面跟省to不定式。句意:让我给你一些简单的介绍。故去掉to。
第三处:考查主谓一致。主语which指代先行词culture,所以用第三人称单数谓语。句意:国学指的是中华民族优秀的传统文化,其中包括哲学、文学、历史、音乐、绘画等。故将include改为includes。
第四处:考查副词。此处要用副词形式作状语修饰形容词important。句意:国学在中国扮演着越来越重要的角色。故将 increasing改为increasingly。
第五处:考查倒装。not only放在句首,用部分倒装,主语前面加does。句意:它不仅告诉我们如何学习,而且教会我们如何生活。故将 it前面加does;
第六处:考查疑问词。表示"它教给我们如何生活",表示方式用how。句意:它不仅告诉我们如何学习,而且教会我们如何生活。故将 what改为how,
第七处:考查名词复数。前面有more and more,所以用复数名词。句意:各级学校都开设了越来越多的国学课程。故将course改为courses。
第八处:考查冠词。understanding是不可数名词,表示"理解;领会 ",但如果前面有修饰词修饰时则要加不定冠词,文中understanding前有better修饰,故前面加不定冠词a。句意:如果你想更好的了解国学。故将 the改为a。
第九处:考查人称代词。指代Guoxue,所以用it。句意:欢迎你来中国学习,感受和享受它。故将them改为it。
第十处:考查动名词。介词from后跟动名词。句意:我相信你会受益于生活在两种不同的文化。故将live改为living。
