W: Welcome to the Selmore Public Library. To join the library, you need a membership card. Take your passport or ID card, as well as show your home address, to the information desk. After a period of two years, all readers are required to go to the desk with a paper that has their name and present address on it so the library can keep up-to-date records of where people are living. There’s no need to register again and there is no charge for this. If you can’t find the book you want on the shelves, you can book it in advance. If it’s in another library in the city, we can usually get it for you within a week. If someone else has borrowed it, it can take a few weeks. Either way, we tell you by phone when the book can be picked up. We will hold it for you for five days. Books can be borrowed for fourteen days. Children’s books also have a two-week borrowing period. So do the CDs but DVDs, both children’s and adults’, can only be borrowed for up to seven days. Dictionaries can be borrowed but normally only for one day. The library opening hours have been changed slightly. Instead of opening late on Wednesday evenings until 8:00 p.m., we will be closing at 6, but we will close at 7 instead of 5:30 on Saturdays and we are going to open on Sunday mornings from next month — 9 to 1. Notices are posted in the library about these.

第二部分　阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)
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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
1. Macao Tower AJ Hackett Bungee Jump
The Macao Tower, 338 meters tall, is the world's 10th highest tower, with a variety of activities, such as gambling, eating and entertainment. One of the famous activities is the bungee jump. The AJ Hackett Macao Tower Bungee Jump is 233 meters high, making it a Guinness World Record as the highest commercial bungee jump in the world. Raise your arms and off you go! If you are not daring enough to jump that height, you can try the skywalk on the 57th floor - it's still remarkable. Grab this chance and tick off this item on your bucket list.
2. Grab a traditional Portuguese dinner
Macao was colonized by Portugal before 1999. As a result, Portuguese culture is deeply into many corners of Macao. Many Portuguese settled and opened Portuguese restaurants in the special administrative region, but the flavor is more adaptable to Chinese people.
3. Visit a museum
Macao, as a tiny little city with only an area of 30.5 square kilometers, has 23 eye-catching museums. Due to its unique history, both Eastern and Western historical sites can be found. Many of them are preserved for cultural heritage, tourist spots or museums, such as the Grand Prix Museum, Maritime Museum and Wine Museum.
4. Selfie(自拍) at the Ruins of St. Paul
The Ruins of St. Paul is the signature landmark of Macao. The ruins consist of the St. Paul's College and the Church of St. Paul, built in 1583. However, after three fires in 1595, 1601 and 1835, the church was seriously damaged. Surprisingly, after the rebuilding and fires, the huge front part and the front stairway remain unburned.
21．Which of the following is NOT true about Macao Tower according to the passage？
A．There are many activities in Macao Tower.
B．The bungee jump there holds a record in the world.

D．Seeing is believing.

【答案】

22．B
23．C
【分析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要列出了去澳门塔AJ Hackett蹦极、吃一顿传统的葡萄牙晚餐、参观博物馆、在圣保罗废墟自拍这四件在澳门值得做的事情。
21．细节理解题。根据第一段的If you are not daring enough to jump that height, you can try the skywalk on the 57th floor - it's still remarkable.（如果你没有足够的勇气跳那么高，你可以尝试一下57层的空中步道）可知，此处并未提及空中步道的高度，且233米是AJ Hackett澳门塔蹦极的高度，由此可知，关于澳门塔D项是不正确的，故选D。
22．推理判断题。根据第四段的However, after three fires in 1595, 1601 and 1835, the church was seriously damaged.（然而，在1595年、1601年和1835年的三场火灾之后，这座教堂遭到了严重的破坏。）可知，圣保罗废墟经历了几次火灾，故选B。
23．主旨大意题。通读全文以及文章的四个小标题可知，文章主要列出了去澳门塔AJ Hackett蹦极、吃一顿传统的葡萄牙晚餐、参观博物馆、在圣保罗废墟自拍这四件在澳门值得做的事情，故由此可知，C项（澳门不能错过的东西）可以概括本文的标题，故选C。
B
Zebra crossings (斑马线) — the alternating dark and light stripes on the road surface — are meant to remind drivers that pedestrians may be trying to get across. Unfortunately, they are not very effective. A 1998 study done by the Department of Traffic Planning and Engineering at Sweden’s Lund University showed that three out of four drivers kept the same speed or even speeded up as they were approaching a crossing. Even worse? Only 5% stopped even when they saw someone trying to get across.
Now a mother-daughter team in Ahmedabad, India has come up with a clever way to get drivers to pay more attention — a 3D zebra crossing with an optical illusion (视错觉). Artists Saumya Pandya Thakkar and Shakuntala Pandya were asked to paint the crosswalks by IL&FS, an Indian company that manages the highways in Ahmedabad. The corporation was looking for a creative solution to help the city’s residents to cross the busy accident-prone (易出事故的) roads safely. Thakkar and Pandya, who had previously seen images of 3D zebra crossings that gave drivers the illusion of logs of wood on the streets in Taizhou， China, decided to test if a similar way would work in India.
Sure enough, in the six months when the 3D crosswalks have been painted across four of the city’s most dangerous highways, there have been no accidents reported! The artists say that while it may appear that the zebra crossing could cause the drivers to brake suddenly and endanger the vehicles behind, such is not the case. Because of the way the human eye works, the illusion is only visible from a distance. As they get closer, the painting looks just like any other ordinary zebra crossing. The creators hope that their smart design will become increasingly common throughout India and perhaps even the world. So let’s look forward to it.
24．What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A．Most drivers will slow down at zebra crossings.
B．Common zebra crossings don’t function well.
C．Drivers have to stop when approaching zebra crossings.
D．About 95% of the drivers choose to speed up when approaching zebra crossings.
25．Why do drivers seeing the 3D zebra crossings slow down according to Para. 2?
A．Because the drivers consider the safety of pedestrians.
B．Because the drivers mistake them for logs of wood on the streets.
C．Because the drivers are afraid of being fined for breaking the traffic rules.
D．Because the drivers don’t want to brake suddenly and endanger the vehicles behind.
26．The last paragraph is mainly about ________.
A．the theory of the 3D zebra crossings
B．the popularity of the 3D zebra crossings
C．the shortcoming of the 3D zebra crossings
D．the positive effect of the 3D zebra crossings
27．What is the author’s attitude towards the 3D zebra crossings?
A．Cautious. B．Doubtful.
C．Approving. D．Disapproving.

【答案】
24．B
25．B
26．D
27．C
【分析】
本文是一篇说明文，介绍了研究表明，很少有司机在穿过斑马线的时候减速，有的甚至还会加速，给行人带来极大的危险。为了阻止这种情况发生，在印度，一些艺术家决定在马路上画上3D斑马线。
24．推理判断题。根据第一段第二句“Unfortunately, they are not very effective”可知，普通的斑马线并不能很好地起作用。故B项正确。
25．细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Thakkar and Pandya, who had previously seen images of 3D zebra crossings that gave drivers the illusion of logs of wood on the streets in Taizhou， China, decided to test if a similar way would work in India.”可知，司机看到3D斑马线而减速是因为他们把斑马线误认为街上的木头。故B项正确。
26．段落大意题。通读最后一段，特别是根据“Sure enough, in the six months when the 3D crosswalks have been painted across four of the city’s most dangerous highways, there have been no accidents reported!”可知，本段介绍了3D斑马线的作用，目前为止，它的效果不错，且没有事故发生，由此可知本段主要介绍了3D斑马线的积极效果。故D项正确。
27．观点态度题。根据最后一段最后一句“So let’s look forward to it”可知，作者期待会有更多3D斑马线出现在街上，因此可推知作者对3D斑马线持支持的态度，故C项正确。
C

My daughter Kelly is a cautious person. She needs to warm up to situations, and is hesitant to try new things. When with close friends, she becomes a leader who laughs loudly and chants," Girls rule, boys drool." But when that comfort zone is not around her, she is shy and nervous.
This has been challenging for me at times. "Shy"is not a word that I think has ever been used to describe me. But this has been a year of firsts for my girl that has filled her with a new sense of confidence. This year she moved to lap lane in swimming where she was preparing for a swim team. This year she learned to ride a bike without training wheels. And this year she completed her first kids' triathlon(三项全能).
On Saturday, with a thunderstorm coming soon and my son's birthday party later in the day, we all went out in the dark of the morning for Kelly to participate in her first triathlon. We practiced transitions from swim to bike to run with her, we got all the equipment she'd need, and we kept talking about the race. But as we waited the two hours for the older kids to finish before her turn, she held my leg a little harder and told me she loved me a few too many times. She was nervous but trying to keep it together.
And then it was her turn. From the second she jumped into the water, my heart soared. My daughter transformed into the most confident human being I had ever seen.She dominated(主宰)that swim, crushed that bike ride and ran to the finish with the biggest smile on her face.
I can honestly say that I never felt so proud of someone in my entire life. It wasn't because she did a sport or anything like that. It was because she was afraid of something and conquered(克服) that fear with confidence and a fire I hadn't seen before.
All day I would find myself just looking over at her and smiling. She might be wearing the finalist medal but I felt like I won that day. I won the chance to see my girl shine.
Shine on, sweet baby.
32．Kelly is nervous when .
A．situations are new to her B．boys are around her

33．We can know from Paragraph 3 .

C．Kelly was eager for her turn in the race
D．Kelly prepared for her brother's birthday party
34．Seeing Kelly's performance in the race, the author felt .
A．excited and proud B．anxious and uneasy
C．curious and concerned D．worried and hesitant
35．The author "felt like I won that day" because Kelly .

本文讲述了 “我”的女儿Ke11y是个僵热型的人，和陌生人在一起她会很紧张很害羞，看到女儿赢得奖牌是作为父母最大的荣耀。
32．
细节理解题。根据文章中第一段所描述的“She needs to warm up to situations，is hesitant to try new things(她需要适应环境，不愿意尝试新事物)”以及“But when that comfort zone is not around her，she is shy and nervous. (但当舒适区不在她身边时，她就会害羞和紧张。)”可知Kelly是一个慢热型的人，如果有新的情况，必然需要一段较长的时间适应，故选A。
33．
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“We practiced transitions from swim to bike to run with her，we got all the equipment she’d need，and we kept talking about the race(我们和她一起练习游泳,骑自行车和跑步，我们给她准备了所有她需要的装备，我们还不停地谈论比赛)”可知道作者全家都是在给Kelly加油的，故本题选B。
34．
推理判断题。根据文章第四段的内容，尤其是“she jumped into the water，my heart soared(她跳进水里，我的心腾飞了)，”可推断作者当时的心情是又激动又自豪的，故选A。
35．
推理判断题。根据文章第五段中的“It was because she was afraid of something and conquered that fear with confidence and a fire I hadn’t seen before(那是因为她害怕某种东西，她用自信和我以前从未见过的激情战胜了恐惧)”可知她已经克服了她的恐惧了，结合第六段中的 “I felt like I won that day”可推断，作者因为Kelly克服恐惧，作者感觉就像是自己赢了一样。故选D。

Are you sometimes stressed? Singing is a simple and effective way to reduce stress. It is beneficial mainly in the following three aspects.
Physical Benefits
36． This is especially recommended for the elders and those who have some form of disability in their voice. However, it is important to find a capable instructor to employ good singing techniques so as not to further damage vocal cords (声带) or lungs.
Singing also helps to improve your posture (姿势). Most people think that singing begins and ends with their mouth. 37． Singing practice will get you used to the proper body position of standing and help you form the good habit of standing straight.
Emotional Benefits
Singing helps in reducing your depression and lowering your stress level. When you sing, your body releases chemicals that make you feel happy, easing the tension and helping you to relax. 38．
Social Benefits
The social benefits of singing are huge. 39． So people who suffer from stage fright are advised to sing in front of family and friends before a live performance.
Singing is also very good for improving your communication skills. It is said that singing to babies helps to prepare their brains for language and may lessen the risk of language problems later in life. 40． The time spent in group singing, whether in a choir or at karaoke, creates a deep and lasting bond of friendship.
A．Try to regain your memory by singing.
B．First, it can help build up your confidence greatly.
C．When you sing, you can give your lungs a workout.
D．Singing helps you to strengthen your immune system.

Eleven years ago, it seemed as if the world came to an end. My husband of 19 years, the father of my two sons, was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Over the 41 of seven months, Bill went from 42 easily at tennis to needing my help to go to the bathroom.
It was the best seven months of my life. Maybe I don't actually 43 that. But it was certainly the time when I felt most 44 . During those seven months, I came to 45 that whatever else I did in my life, nothing would 46 more than taking care of my husband. I discovered that the minor complaint of an annoying coworker, or a flat tire pales in 47 with the beauty of sincere laughter, the 48 of a bakery. There were moments of 49 laughter, and tenderness in every day. I found I could train myself to see beauty 50 bother.
In the days after Bill's diagnosis and brain surgery, being his caregiver also meant being fully 51 as much as possible. During his last weekend, when we had dinner together a relative visited. I 52 that she'd changed her appearance, and not in a good way. It was the kind of 53 I'd usually keep to 54 . Just then, Bill voiced 55 what I’d been thinking, in that truthful way he had, and I found myself 56 out loud. I thought I could live with this man forever, but he 57 in four days.
Eleven years later, I haven't made much achievements. 58 every day, I try to be the person I became during those seven months. I try to be a little less judgmental, a little more generous, a little more 59 for the small moments in life.
I am a better person for having been Bill's caregiver. It was his last, best 60 to me.

41．考查名词词义辨析。routine 常规；course过程，课程；event事件；basis基础。在七个月的过程中，Bill经历了从轻松地在网球中获胜到需要我的帮助才能去洗手间的过程over the course of“在……过程中”是固定搭配。B选项正确。
42．考查动词。win赢；hit击中；strike罢工，撞，碰；beat打败。该句叙述的是作者丈夫患癌之后的转变。from…指的是作者丈夫身体很好的状况。to…指的是作者丈夫生病之后的状况。因此该句应指丈夫原本身体强壮，可以轻松地在网球比赛中“获胜”。D选项正确。

57．考查动词短语辨析。die away逐渐消失；get away离开，脱身；go away离开，外出；pass away去世。根据but转折可以推知，作者原以为自己可以永远地和丈夫生活在一起，但是他四天之后去世了。D选项正确。
58．考查连词。and和；but但是；or或者；while尽管。前句提到，11年之后，我没有取得很大的成就。后句提到：每天，我努力地成为那七个月我成为的那个人。很明显，前后之间是转折关系，故B选项正确。
59．考查形容词。thoughtful考虑周全的，深思熟虑的；powerful力量强大的；careful认真的； grateful感激的。该句叙述的是作者良好的心态，因此应该指：我努力地做到不那么爱下判断了，我更慷慨了，更感激生活中的小时刻了。D选项正确。

【分析】
本文为一篇记叙文。文章记叙了我到首都国际机场接国际学生遇到的文化差异。
61．考查现在分词作状语。句意：昨天，我和另一名学生代表我校学生会，到首都国际机场去接今年来北京大学学习的国际学生。分析句子可知，我和另一名学生与代表为逻辑上的主动关系，represent在句中作定语，用现在分词形式。故填representing。
62．考查不定式。句意：昨天，我和另一名学生代表我校学生会，到首都国际机场去接今年来北京大学学习的国际学生。分析句子可知，我们去机场的目的是接国际学生，不定式to do可表目的。故填to meet。
63．考查定语从句。句意：昨天，我和另一名学生代表我校学生会，到首都国际机场去接今年来北京大学学习的国际学生。分析句子可知，此句为非限制性定语从句，先行词为students，指人，且在定语从句中作主语，that不能引导非限制性定语从句。故填who。
64．考查不定冠词。句意：等了半个小时，我看到几个年轻人走进候机区，好奇地四处张望。分析句子，名词hour以元音音素开头，需要用不定冠词an修饰。故填an。
65．考查副词。句意：等了半个小时，我看到几个年轻人走进候机区，好奇地四处张望。分析句子可知，修饰动词短语look around, 用curious的副词形式curiously。故填curiously。
66．考查连词。句意：在我遇见他们并介绍他们互相认识之后，我非常惊讶。结合后文他们不同文化的不同打招呼方式，我应该是在遇见他们并介绍他们互相认识之后，感到非常惊讶。故填After。
67．考查形容词性物主代词。句意：Tony走近Julia，摸摸她的肩膀，吻了吻她的脸颊！分析句子可知，Tony摸的应该是Julia的肩膀，在句中用女性的第三人称单数的形容词性物主代词her。故填her。
68．考查介词。句意：Tony走近Julia，摸摸她的肩膀，吻了吻她的脸颊！on the cheek表示亲在了她的脸颊上。故填on。
69．考查连词。句意：她往后退了一步，显得很惊讶，举起手来，好像在防卫。分析句子可知，她很惊讶与举起手来是并列的动作，and作为连词,表示并列。故填and。
70．考查名词。句意：我猜可能有个大误会。结合前文可知，文化差异让双方都很尴尬，这里面可能有一个大的误会，且所填空前有不定冠词a修饰，所填空处需填名词。故填misunderstanding。

For example, some students play mobile phones and sleep in class, wasting quantities of precious time. What’s worse, some students enjoy chat with others. Not only does it affect our own study, but also it will do harm for others.
As far as I am concern, the main reason is that they don’t realize the important of study. To solve this problem, they have to understand making full use of class was the best way to improve the efficiency of study. After all, time and tide waits for no man.
【答案】
【分析】
这是一篇议论文。一些同学在课上不认真学习，文章分析了一些上课时不好的现象，并分析这么做的坏处及原因。最后，作者还提出了自己的建议。
【详解】
第一处：考查冠词。句意：课堂是一个学生们应该努力学习来实现梦想的地方。place是可数名词，该处指“一个地方”，故应在is和place之间加上a。
第二处：考查动词用法。句意：一些同学没有正确地利用课堂，这使得情况越来越糟糕。表示“使得某人做某事”，应用make sb./sth. do结构，这是make的固定用法。故去掉to.
第三处：考查连词。学生们在课堂上玩手机或者睡觉。play mobile phones和sleep in class之间是选择关系，应用连词or。and表示并列关系。故and改为or。
第四处：考查动词用法。enjoy后面接doing作宾语，故将chat改为chatting。
第五处：考查代词。该句指课上聊天会影响一些同学自己的学习。代指“some students”，应用“他们”，该处应指“他们自己的学习”。故our改为their。
第六处：考查介词。表示“危害……”，应用do harm to sth.，这是固定短语。故for改为to.
第七处：考查固定短语。表示“就……而言”，应用as far as sb. be concerned，是固定短语。故concern改为concerned。
第八处：考查名词。句意：他们没有意识到学习的重要性。作动词realize的宾语应用名词，故应将形容词important改为名词importance。
第九处：考查时态。此处表示现在的情况，根据上下文可知，该句应用一般现在时态。故was改为is。
第十处：考查主谓一致。主语是time and tide，是两个名词，根据主谓一致原则，谓语动词应把waits改为wait。

【答案】Dear Peter,
I’m writing to tell you something about e­hongbao, which is becoming popular in China.
E­hongbao is actually a kind of lucky money from and to relatives and friends during festivals or on special occasions. For many young people, grabbing e­hongbao on their mobile phones is a fairly common and exciting activity. Unlike the tradition of elders giving lucky money to children, over half of the people sending e­hongbao are in their 20s. It’s just for fun or giving best wishes, while the sum of money matters little. In a word, e­hongbao is bringing new color to the old tradition.
Nevertheless, I’m concerned about the safety of online payment. So rules and regulations need to be improved regarding the e­hongbao system to guarantee its operation.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
