A
Kot:I hate long journeys. Last winter I went to Mexico City with my family. When we arrived at the airport in London, our flight was delayed because of a terrible storm. Luckily, I had my tablet with me, so I downloaded an ebook. We were waiting there for five hours but I was reading an exciting story, so the time went quickly.
Jess: Last July, I went to a language school in the UK. I made some new friends and when I wasn’t studying, we spent time together. One weekend we went to a music festival for teenagers. It was raining all day, but we had a lot of fun. Most people were wearing boots, but I didn’t pack any, so my new sandals got really wet and muddy. The music was brilliant, and I kept my dirty sandals as a souvenir!
Alliso:Last summer I went on a school trip to Edinburgh. On the first day we went sightseeing-my favorite place was Edinburgh Castle. However, I was walking all day in uncomfortable shoes, so by late afternoon my feet were hurting. That evening I decided to stay in the hotel to rest. What were my friends doing while I was in the hotel? A tour guide took them on an exciting night tour of the city-by bus!
1. Which tip can be suitable for Kot’s travel experience?
A. Don’t download too many apps.
B. Make sure to check for landmarks.
C. For outdoors events, go prepared for weather.
D. It’s OK to take a good book with you when you travel.

B
STAY HUNGER
STAY FOOLISH
I’m honored to be with you today for your commencement. I want to tell you three stories from my life.
The first story is about connecting the dots. When I was at Reed College, it offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. I decided to take a calligraphy class. At that time none of what I learned about calligraphy seemed to have even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. Of course it was impossible to connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.
My second story is about love and loss. I was lucky — I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in my parents’ garage when I was twenty. And then at thirty, I got fired. But something slowly began to dawn on me — I still love what I did. And so I decided to start over. During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, and I returned to Apple. I’m convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. So, if you haven’t found what you love, keep looking. Don’t settle.
My third story is about death. When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: “ If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right.” About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor’s code for “prepare to die”. Later it turned out to be curable with surgery. I had the surgery and, thankfully, I am fine now. This was the closest I’ve been to facing death. Having lived through it, I can now say this to you: Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.
When I was young, there was an amazing publication called the Whole Earth Catalog. On the back cover of the final issue were the words: “Stay hungry. Stay foolish.” It was their farewell message as they signed off. And I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin new, I wish that for you. Stay hungry. Stay foolish.
Thank you all very much.

【解析】
【分析】本文为一篇夹叙夹议。是一篇毕业典礼上的演讲辞,Steve Jobs通过讲述他人生中的三个故事的,来激励年轻人努力追求梦想。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“When I was at Reed College, it offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. I decided to take a calligraphy class(当我在Reed大学时,学校提供了全国最好的书法课程,于是我决定去上这个书法课)”可知,Steve Jobs在大学时,曾上过书法课,故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“And then at thirty, I got fired. During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT(30岁那年,我被解雇了。在接下来的5年里,我创办了NeXT公司)”可知,他被苹果公司解雇的五年内,他创办了NeXT公司,故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer(大约一年前,我被诊断出癌症)”可知,Steve Jobs在演讲的一年前,被诊断出癌症,故选B。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。结合文章第二段“So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future(所以你必须相信,现在的点点滴滴都会以某种方式联系到你的未来)”、第三段“So, if you haven’t found what you love, keep looking(因此,如果你还没找到你喜欢做的事,那么请继续找下去)”以及第四段“I can now say this to you: Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life(我现在可以告诉你:你的时间是有限的,因此不要把时间浪费在别人的生活里)”可知,Steve Jobs借用自己人生中的三个故事来激励他们不要浪费时间,要一直追寻梦想并努力实现梦想,所以文章最后他给学生们的寄语“Stay hungry. Stay foolish.”也表达了同样的意思,继续奋斗,继续追梦! 故选D。
C
What are you doing this weekend? Perhaps you're spending time with family, hanging out with friends, or maybe you're going to play a sport. All around the world, people chill out at the end of the working week and take part in leisure activities. In many countries, the weekend consists of Saturday and Sunday, while in others Friday and Saturday are the days of rest. In Afghanistan, Thursday and Friday form the weekend, while in one country, Brunei, Friday and Sunday are the days off.
Have you ever stopped to wonder, though, exactly where it originated? And how is the concept going to change? The modern weekend took shape during the Industrial Revolution. In the early 19 century, in areas such as the north of England, people began to leave the countryside to work in towns and cities. There, new factories were springing up. Their working lives were once ruled by nature, with the amount of work depending on the changing seasons. Now, their employers demanded a different rhythm-a six-day week of up to 12 hours a day, followed by one day of rest.
Campaigns for workers' rights appeared. By the end of the century they had managed to reduce the working week to five and a half days. This meant that working people could take an interest in hobbies such as photography, which was very new at the time. In the US in the 1920s, the industrialist Henry Ford helped to create the weekend. He gave all his workers Saturday and Sunday off work. His factories manufactured cars, and he wanted to allow his employees time to purchase and enjoy the cars they were producing.
These days, in many countries, working a 40-hour week is normal. Many people have a nine-to-five job, but even that is rapidly changing. Technology enables more people to work from home and plan their own use of time. This means that an official period away from work is becoming less important. Perhaps in the future we will work fewer hours altogether. If we become more productive, we should be able to afford the same lifestyle by working fewer hours. It has been estimated, for example, that a worker in the US can achieve a 1950s standard of living by working just 1l hours a week. Some people have recommended a 21-hour working week to help with unemployment, climate change and inequality. However, a change like that may mean more leisure time but it will probably limit people's ability to earn money to enjoy it.
8. What does the underlined word “originated” in the second paragraph mean?
A. Relaxed. B. Started. C. Appeared suddenly. D. Stopped.
9. What happened as a result of campaigns on behalf of workers?
A. People became more inventive.
B. People worked fewer hours per day.
C. People worked fewer hours overall.
D. People found employment in leisure industries.
10. The writer says an American businessman gave his workers time off so that ________
A. he could produce more cars.
B. they could spend money on cars.
C. he didn’t have to pay them to drive.
D. they would enjoy working with him.
11. Why does the writer suggest the weekend may be less important now?
A. Because we start work later than we used to
B. Because nobody works over 40 hours a week.
C. Because technology empowers individuals to arrange their own time.
D. Because people are out control of their working week.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了周末的开始、发展及现状。
【8题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第二段“The modern weekend took shape during the Industrial Revolution.(现代周末形成于工业革命时期)”可知此句回答划线处的问题。B项:start(开始)合乎题意。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“By the end of the century they had managed to reduce the working week to five and a half days. This meant that working people could take an interest in hobbies such as photography, which was very new at the time.(到本世纪末,他们已设法把每周工作时间减少到五天半。这意味着工作的人可以有兴趣爱好,如摄影,这在当时是非常新的。)”可知由于工人的运动,人们总的工作时间减少了。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“His factories manufactured cars, and he wanted to allow his employees time to purchase and enjoy the cars they were producing.(他的工厂生产汽车,他想让他的员工有时间购买和享受他们生产的汽车)”可知一位美国商人给他的工人放假,以便他们能把钱花在汽车上。故选B。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Technology enables more people to work from home and plan their own use of time. This means that an official period away from work is becoming less important.(科技使更多的人能够在家工作,规划自己的时间使用。这意味着正式的休假时间变得不那么重要了。)”可知作者认为周末现在可能不那么重要了,因为科技使个人能够安排自己的时间。故选C。
D
________
“Practice makes perfect” is a very popular expression. However, can we take this saying literally? Many scientific studies have sought to either prove or disprove this idea. So does enough practice literally lead to perfection, or at least to a level of expertise?
One popular theory is that if a person practises for at least 10,000 hours, they will reach “perfection”—or, in other words, become an expert in their field. This theory was made famous by Malcolm Gladwell in his 2008 best-selling book, Outliers: The Story of Success. He claimed 10,000 hours of practice to be “the magic number of greatness”. He gave the examples of the music group The Beatles and Microsoft co-creator Bill Gates. Although they all seemed to have lots of natural talent, they also clearly put in over 10,000 hours of practice before they became successful.
However, Gladwell’s book has been said by many to be too simplistic and generalising. Gladwell’s work was largely based on research done by Anders Ericsson, who argued that Gladwell misinterpreted his research. Firstly, Ericsson stated that 10,000 hours was an average figure. Some people, for example, needed far fewer than 10,000 hours, and others many more. More importantly, Ericsson said that just practising a lot was not enough; the type and quality of practice was also essential. He went on to explain the importance of “deliberate practice”, which is when a person practises a specific part of a skill in depth rather than practising a skill as a whole. Deliberate practice is said to be much more effective, albeit more tiring.
Despite the theories mentioned above, many other studies argue that practice alone is far from enough. In fact, a more recent study from Princeton University stated that practice only accounted for up to 26% of reaching an expert level. So what are the other factors that contribute to people becoming experts ?
Many people say that natural talent has a large influence on becoming an expert. Another natural factor is physical superiority, which is especially evident in sports. For instance, many baseball players in America have amazing vision that allows them to see the ball much sooner than others do. So no matter how much a “normal” person practises, it is very hard for them to be as good as someone who has natural talent or physical superiority and who also practises.
And how about other factors that go into creating an expert? Many say IQ, personality, attitude, and starting age are decisive factors, too. It is also important to note that becoming an expert doesn't equal instant success. Success also relies on social factors, environmental factors, and even just being in the right place at the right time!
In conclusion, practice may not make perfect, but deliberate practice has been shown to lead to significant improvement. Based on Ericsson's research, here are some tips on how to practise effectively: be motivated; make specific and realistic goals; work outside your comfort zone; be consistent and persistent; ask for others’ opinions; and, of course, get plenty of rest! For those wanting to become an expert in something, remember that being motivated is key—enjoy what you do and follow your passions.
12. What examples did Gladwell use for his claim?
A. Many scientific studies.
B. His own learning experience.
C. Many baseball players in America.
D. A music group and the Microsoft co-creator.
13. Why did Ericsson disagree with Gladwell?
A. Because he did a scientific studies.
B. Because he found deliberate practice less effective.
C. Because he agreed with the influence of the natural talent.
D. Because he thought the type and quality of practice was also essential.
14. What did a recent study from Princeton University show?
A. Practice only accounted for a small share in reaching an expert level.
B. Attitude and starting age are decisive factors to become an expert.
C. Twenty-six percent of the tested subjects can gain success.
D. It is very hard for a “normal” person to be a natural talent.
15. What can be the suitable title for this text?
A. A new scientific discovery
B. Does practice really make prefect?
C. Advantages and disadvantages of making practice
D. The more you practice, the more success you will receive.
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章论证了练习可能无法至完美,但刻意练习已经被证明能带来明显的提高。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“He gave the examples of the music group The Beatles and Microsoft co-creator Bill Gates. Although they all seemed to have lots of natural talent, they also clearly put in over 10,000 hours of practice before they became successful.”(他举了披头士乐队和微软联合创始人比尔·盖茨的例子。尽管他们似乎都很有天赋,但他们显然也在成功之前花了1万多小时的练习)可知,Gladwell以乐队和微软联合创始人为例子论证他的1万小时理论。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Ericsson said that just practising a lot was not enough; the type and quality of practice was also essential.”(Ericsson表示,仅仅大量练习是不够的;练习的类型和质量也至关重要。)可知,Gladwell认为练习的时长重要,但Ericssion认为练习的类型和质量也很重要。故选D项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“In fact, a more recent study from Princeton University stated that practice only accounted for up to 26% of reaching an expert level.”(事实上,普林斯顿大学最近的一项研究表明,练习只占达到专家水平因素的26%。)可知,一个人能否在某个方面达到专家水平,练习只占很小的一部分。故选A项。
15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,根据第一段的“So does enough practice literally lead to perfection, or at least to a level of expertise?”(足够的练习真的能达到完美吗?或者至少能达到专长的水平)和最后一段“In conclusion, practice may not make perfect, but deliberate practice has been shown to lead to significant improvement.”(练习可能无法至完美,但刻意练习已经被证明能带来明显的提高。)可知,文章在探讨练习是否能至完美。所以短文的最佳标题为“熟真的能生巧”。故选B项。

A Day in the Clouds
The air is thin and we have to rest several times on the short hike from camp. To our left, snow-covered mountains disappear into clouds that seem almost close enough to touch. On the plain in front of us, we can just make out a herd of graceful animals.____16____
Tibetan antelopes live on the plains of Tibet Xinjiang and Qinghai. Watching them move slowly across the green gross, I'm struck by their beauty.____17____ They are being hunted, illegally, for their valuable fur.
My guide is Zhaxi, a villager from Changtang. He works at the Changtang National Nature Reserve.____18____ To Zhaxi, the land is sacred and protecting the wildlife is a way of life. “We’re not trying to save the animals,” he says. “Actually, we’re trying to save ourselves.”
The 1980s and 1990s were bad times for the Tibetan antelope.____19____ Hunters were shooting antelopes to make profits. Their habitats were becoming smaller as new roads and railways were built.
In order to save this species from extinction, the Chinese government placed it under national protection. Zhaxi and other volunteers watched over the antelopes day and night to keep them safe from attacks. Bridges and gates were added to let the antelopes move easily and keep them safe from cars and trains.
____20____The antelope population has recovered and in June 20l5, and the Tibetan antelope was removed from the endangered species list. The government however, does not intend to stop the protection programmes, since the threats to the Tibetan antelope have not yet disappeared.
In the evening, I drink a cup of tea and watch the stars. I think about the antelopes and what Zhaxi told me. Much is being done to protect wildlife, but if we really want to save the planet we must change our way of life. Only when we learn to exist in harmony with nature can we stop being a threat to wildlife and to our planet.
A. The measures were effective.
B. I'm also reminded of the danger they are in.
C. The Tibetan antelopes live high above sea level.
D. The population dropped by more than 50 percent.
E. This is why we're here一to observe Tibetan antelopes.
F. We should not buy goods made from endangered animals.
G. The reserve is a shelter for the animals and plants of northwestern Tibet.
【答案】16. E 17. B 18. G 19. D 20. A
【解析】

【解析】
【分析】本文为一篇记叙文。在被选为学校最佳运动员后,陈希在仪式上进行了一次演讲,描述自己是如何进行体育运动的。
【41题详解】

【42题详解】

【43题详解】
考查名词。句意:我喜欢周末在电视上看这些赛事。根据空格前these可知,应用复数名词events作宾语。故填events。
【44题详解】
考查介词。句意:早上,我经常在跑道上慢跑大约半个小时。in the morning为固定短语,意为“在清晨”,介词in表示“在……期间”,另外,句首单词首字母大写。故填In。
【45题详解】

【49题详解】
考查名词。句意:如果你想变得健康,我的建议是尝试不同的运动和活动,看看你最喜欢哪一个。根据空格前形容词性物主代词可知,应使用名词advice作主语,抽象名词不可数。故填advice。
【50题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意同上。由句意可知,尝试不同的运动和活动是想要知道“自己最喜欢哪一种”,分析句子可知,see后为宾语从句,结合句意,用连词which引导该宾语从句,且在从句中宾语。故填which。

eChina’s first manned spaceship lifts off on 15 October, 2003. The spaceship, calling Shenzhou V, was carrying China’s first astronaut, Yang Liwei. During the 21-hour space flight, the Shenzhou V circled earth 14 times. While the spaceship was circling the earth, Yang Liwei performed the number of scientific tasks and had a chance to speak to his family. He also flew the flags of China and the United Nations, that symbolized China’s wish to explore and use space peacefully. On 16 October, the Shenzhou V landed safe in inner Mongolia. Million of people all over the world watched the landing on TV. When Yang Liwei climbed out of the spaceship, he smiled but waved to the crowds waiting for him. Although he were happy to be home, he said, “but I thought 21 hours was such a short stay in space.”

2.calling→called
3.在earth前加the
4.the→a
5.that→which
6.safe→safely
7.million→millions

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了“神舟五号”宇宙飞船及中国第一位宇航员杨利伟。
【详解】1.考查谓语动词。句意:2003年10月15日,中国第一艘载人飞船发射升空。根据时间状语on 15 October, 2003,可知句子的时态为一般过去时,谓语动词应用过去式。故将lifts改为lifted。
2.考查非谓语动词。句意:这艘名为“神舟五号”的宇宙飞船搭载着中国第一位宇航员杨利伟。在句中作非谓语,和句子的主语the spaceship之间是逻辑的被动关系,应用动词的过去分词的形式。故将calling改为called。
3.考查冠词。句意:在21小时的太空飞行中,神舟五号环绕地球14圈。在世界上独一无二的事物前应加定冠词the。故在earth前加the。
4考查冠词。句意:当宇宙飞船环绕地球飞行时,杨利伟执行了多项科学任务,并有机会与家人通话。固定短语a number of许多。故将the改为a。
5.考查定语从句的引导词。句意:他还悬挂了象征中国和平探索和利用太空的中国和联合国国旗。引导非限制性定语从句且在句中作指物的主语,先行词为the flags。故将that改为which。
6.考查副词。句意:10月16日,神舟五号在内蒙古安全着陆。修饰动词land应用副词的形式。故将safe改为safely。
7.考查名词。句意:全世界数以百万计的人在电视上观看了降落。当杨利伟爬出宇宙飞船时,他微笑着向等待他的人群挥手。millions of数以百万计的。故将million改为millions。
8.考查连词。句意:全世界数以百万计的人在电视上观看了降落。当杨利伟爬出宇宙飞船时,他微笑着向等待他的人群挥手。结合句意,前后句为递进关系,应用and。故将but改为and。
9.考查谓语。句意:他说,虽然他很高兴回家,但我觉得在太空中呆21个小时太短了。叙述过去发生的事,应用一般过去时;主语为he,结合主谓一致,应用was。故将were改为was。
10.考查连词。句意见上题解析。分析句子的结构可知,此句为although引导的让步状语从句,应该去掉but。故将but去掉。
