Photographer Rebecca Douglas has always been crazy about the night sky. Her love of the stars has taken the UK resident on “star walking” trips to Iceland and into the Arctic. For nature lovers like Douglas star walking turns out to be a good way to enjoy life.
Hiking at night isn’t uncommon. Plenty of people hike after dark to get to campsites or watch sun rise from a mountaintop. Star walking goes a step further by mixing hiking with stargazing. Rather than heading to an observatory or setting up a telescope in your backyard, star walking takes you on a brief journey to look at the stars from different viewpoints.
“An observatory can never take the place of getting out into a rural landscape under a blanket of stars,” says Gary Lintern of Stargazing Nights in Durham, England, who leads guided nighttime hikes. “It’s a magical experience, and I enjoy sharing it, especially at some of my favorite locations, like the High Force Waterfall, England’s largest waterfall, in Teesdale.”
There are plenty of studies that show the health benefits of being in nature. Spending at least two hours a week outdoors, particularly while engaging in activities that involve “effortless attention”, can decrease blood pressure, heart rale, and stress levels. Walking at night has the added benefit of improving sleep, which is important for overall health, says Christina Pierpaoli Parker, a behavioral sleep researcher at the University of Alabama. Parker says that star walking works on two physiological processes that determine sleep quality. “Movement and exercise, such as relaxing stargazing walks outside, may facilitate sleep,” she says.
Lintern advises reading up on the night sky before setting out. Free mobile apps, such as Star Walk 2, can help identify celestial bodies and are easy to use—simply point your phones at the sky to get a map. Websites like Sky & Telescope and NASA’s Space Place cover the basics, have in-depth explanations forconstellations (星座), and offer advice on gear and equipment.
At the end of the day. the best advice is to take it slow and enjoy the journey.
4. Why did Douglas go to lceland?
A. To take photos there. B. To enjoy the night sky there.
C. To experience daily life there. D. To search for an observatory there.
5. What can we know about star walking?
A. It is a combination of hiking and stargazing. B. It is similar to stargazing at an observatory.
C. It only requires a telescope in your backyard. D. It becomes more popular because of Gray Lintern.
6. What does the underlined word “facilitate” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Slow. B. Worsen. C. Prevent. D. Promote.
7. What’s the fifth paragraph mainly about?
A. Some useful mobile apps. B. Famous websites about hiking.
C. Proper suggestions on star walking. D. Basic knowledge of equipment for stargazing.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是星空漫步结合了徒步旅行和观星的活动，对于观星者的身心健康都有好处，并告诉我们要做一名观星者的必要装备。
4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“Photographer Rebecca Douglas has always been crazy about the night sky. Her love of the stars has taken the UK resident on “star walking” trips to Iceland and into the Arctic. For nature lovers like Douglas star walking turns out to be a good way to enjoy life.(摄影师丽贝卡·道格拉斯一直都很迷恋夜空。她对星星的爱让这位英国居民开始了去冰岛和北极的“星空漫步”之旅。对于像道格拉斯这样的自然爱好者来说，星空漫步是享受生活的一种好方式。)”可知，道格拉斯去冰岛是为了欣赏那里的夜空。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“Star walking goes a step further by mixing hiking with stargazing.(星际漫步则更进一步，它将徒步旅行与观星相结合。)”可知，星空漫步是徒步旅行和观星的结合。故选A。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段的“Walking at night has the added benefit of improving sleep, which is important for overall health(夜间散步还有改善睡眠的额外好处，这对整体健康很重要)”以及划线句上文“Parker says that star walking works on two physiological processes that determine sleep quality. (帕克说，星空漫步涉及到决定睡眠质量的两个生理过程。)”可知，Parker认为星空漫步有利于睡眠，因此推断划线词所在的句子表示“运动和锻炼，比如放松地在户外观星散步，可能有助于睡眠”，划线词facilitate的意思是“改善，提升”，和Promote意思相近，故选D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段的“Lintern advises reading up on the night sky before setting out. Free mobile apps, such as Star Walk 2, can help identify celestial bodies and are easy to use—simply point your phones at the sky to get a map.(Lintern建议在出发前仔细了解夜空。免费的手机应用程序，比如Star Walk 2，可以帮助识别天体，而且很容易使用——只要把你的手机指向天空就可以得到一张地图。)”可知，第五段主要讲的是关于进行星空漫步的适当建议。故选C。
C
Katherine Rooks, a Denver-based writer, had sent her son a text message about coming home from school “I could tell from his response that he became upset suddenly in our thread. And when he came home, he came over and said, ‘What did you mean by this?’ “Rooks was confused.” So we looked at the text together and I said, “Well, I meant, see you later, or something. I don ‘t remember exactly what it said.’ And he said, ‘But you ended with a full stop! I thought you were really angry!”Rooks wasn’t angry, and she explained to her son that, well, periods are how you end a sentence.
But in text-messaging—at least for younger adult--periods do more than just end a sentence: they also can set a tone. Gretchen McCulloch, a linguist, said that when it comes to text-messaging, the period has lost its original purpose. But that doesn’t mean the period has lost all the purposes in text-messaging. Now it can be used to indicate seriousness or a sense of finality. “But caution is needed,” said McCulloch, noting that problems can start to arise when you combine a period with a positive emotion, like “sure” or “sounds good”.
A period can accidentally set a tone. A recent study conducted by Binghamton University psychology professor Celia Klin confirmed this. Researchers asked undergraduates to evaluate a text exchange that included an innocent question and the answer “Yes”. Some saw “Yes” with a period and some saw the word without. They found consistently through many experiments that “Yes” with a period resulted in responses that were more negative. So people thought “Yes” with a period was less friendly, less sincere, and so on.“I really don’t like getting text messages that end in periods because it always feels so passive-aggressive,” said Juan Abenante Rincon, 24, a social media manager for Adidas. “Like, are you mad? What’s going on? Like, did I do something wrong?”
Klin said this demonstrates language is constantly changing. “Language evolution has happened; it’ll continue to happen and isn’t it great that we’re so linguistically flexible and creative?”
8. Why does the text begin with Katherine’s conflict with her son?
A. To lead in the use of period in texting. B. To emphasize the great power of words.
C. To show youngsters’ attitudes towards texting. D. To suggest the right use of punctuation marks.
9. Why is Juan Abenante Rincon mentioned in the text?
A. To make assessments on the recent study. B. To confirm the findings of the recent study.
C. To put forward doubts about the recent study. D. To show great opposition for the recent study.
10. What is Celia Klin’s attitude towards the changes in the meanings of full stops?
A. Disapproving. B. Conservative. C. Worried. D. Positive.
11. What can be the suitable title of the passage?
A. Full Stops: Be Original B. Full Stops: Be Cautious
C. Language Evolution: Be Flexible D. Language Evolution: Be Consistent
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是随着语言的发展，标点符号的作用并不仅限于它们原来的用途，当把积极的词汇和严肃的标点符号连用时，会造成消极对抗。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“But in text-messaging—at least for younger adult--periods do more than just end a sentence(但在短信中——至少对年轻人来说——句号不仅仅是一个句子的结尾)”可知，文章的开头是凯瑟琳和她儿子的冲突是为了引出在短信中使用句号这个话题，故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“They found consistently through many experiments that “Yes” with a period resulted in responses that were more negative. So people thought “Yes” with a period was less friendly, less sincere, and so on.(他们通过许多实验一致发现，带句号的“是”会导致更消极的回应。所以人们认为带句号的“是”不那么友好，不那么真诚，等等。)”可知，文章提到Juan Abenante Rincon是为了证实最近的研究发现。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Language evolution has happened; it’ll continue to happen, and isn’t it great that we’re so linguistically flexible and creative?(语言已经发生了进化;这种情况还会继续发生，我们在语言上如此灵活和富有创造力，这不是很棒吗？)”可知，Celia Klin对句号含义的变化持赞成的态度，故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段的“Language evolution has happened; it’ll continue to happen, and isn’t it great that we’re so linguistically flexible and creative?(语言已经发生了进化；这种情况还会继续发生，我们在语言上如此灵活和富有创造力，这不是很棒吗？)”可知，本文主要介绍了语言的发展的灵活性，因此最好的题目是C选项“Language Evolution: Be Flexible(语言进化：要灵活)”，故选C。
D
The Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympics saw many excellent athletes compete on the ice and snow, prompting an enthusiasm for winter sports in China. In fact, the country has had a deep relationship with winter sports since ancient times, with skiing originating in the Altay prefecture of Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region.
In 2005, cave paintings of Altay people hunting on skis with poles were discovered, which archaeologists estimated could be more than 10,000 years old. Since then, Altay has been recognized by many as one of the birthplaces of skiing, according to Xinhua.
As one of the richest collections of ancient rock art in China, there are herds of camels, sheep, wolves and human figures. The painting on the roof of a cave in Dundebulake village of Altay prefecture depicts humans on skis, bending their knees as they travel alongside animals, including deer and moose.
The rock art in Dundebulake is well preserved because the pictographs (象形文字) are well hidden in the cave.
Additionally, Alta’s dry climate has been a useful preserving agent, according to a 2016 research paper published by the Hebei Normal University.
Unique geographical and climatic conditions make skiing an indispensable part of local people’s lives. The climate in Altay is mild and not too windy, so skiers are less affected by weather conditions, allowing them to safely move faster.
Unlike the modern skis we use nowadays, fur skis have been used as a means of transportation for the snowfield inhabitants of Altay for more than 100 centuries, according to rock carvings uncovered in the area.
Making skis has been a traditional skill. The handmade skis have a layer of horse skin. The fur on the horse skin can help decrease friction (摩擦力) when they slide down the hill, while the skis also prevent skiers from falling when they walk up. At the same time, they have a wooden stick in hand to keep balance, according to China Daily.
Fur ski competitions have been held annually by the local government. Many locals would display their maneuvers (高超的移动) at the competitions.
12. Which of the following is evidence that Altay is one of the birthplaces of skiing?
A. Altay people wore skis to hunt animals. B. The modern skis are very similar to fur skis.
C. Local people have used fur skis for a long time. D. Humans on skis were depicted in cave drawings.
13. What have fur skis been used for in Altay since ancient times?
A. Hunting. B. Transportation. C. Competition. D. Entertainment.
14. How does horse skin benefit skiers?
A. It helps them better control directions. B. It makes them slide more comfortably.
C. It helps them slide down smoothly. D. It helps them keep steady while sliding.
15. What does the article mainly talk about?
A. The origins of skiing in Altay. B. The ancient rock art found in Altay.
C. The development of skiing in China. D. The current popularity of skiing in Altay
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲是滑雪起源于阿勒泰，说明了相关的研究发现。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“In 2005, cave paintings of Altay people hunting on skis with poles were discovered, which archaeologists estimated could be more than 10,000 years old. Since then, Altay has been recognized by many as one of the birthplaces of skiing, according to Xinhua.(2005年，人们在洞穴中发现了阿勒泰人用滑雪杖狩猎的壁画，考古学家估计这些壁画可能有1万多年的历史。据新华社报道，从那时起，阿勒泰就被许多人认为是滑雪运动的发源地之一。)”可知，能证明阿勒泰是滑雪的发源地之一的是在洞穴壁画中描绘了滑雪的人类。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段的“Unlike the modern skis we use nowadays, fur skis have been used as a means of transportation for the snowfield inhabitants of Altay for more than 100 centuries, according to rock carvings uncovered in the area.(根据阿尔泰地区出土的岩雕，与我们现在使用的现代滑雪板不同，毛皮滑雪板作为阿尔泰雪地居民的交通工具已经有100多个世纪的历史了。)”可知，自古以来，阿勒泰人用毛皮滑雪板做交通工具。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“The fur on the horse skin can help decrease friction (摩擦力) when they slide down the hill(马皮上的皮毛可以减少他们滑下山时的摩擦力)”可知，马皮对滑雪者的好处是帮助它们顺利地滑下来。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“The Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympics saw many excellent athletes compete on the ice and snow, prompting an enthusiasm for winter sports in China. In fact, the country has had a deep relationship with winter sports since ancient times, with skiing originating in the Altay prefecture of Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region.(在北京冬奥会和残奥会上，众多优秀运动员在冰雪赛场上展开角逐，激发了中国民众对冬季运动的热情。事实上，我国自古以来就与冬季运动有着深厚的渊源，滑雪运动起源于新疆维吾尔自治区的阿勒泰地区。)”可知，本文主要讲述了滑雪起源于阿勒泰。故选A。
第二节：（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处最佳项。选项中有两处为多余选项。
The China State Council issued a document in early August, suggesting employers across the country make flexible working arrangements and give their workers Friday afternoons off during hot summer days in order to boost tourism and consumption.
Online surveys have shown that most correspondents are in favor of the State Council’s proposal for longer weekends, as two and a half days are enough even for one to plan a short journey. People will have more time to be together with their families. ____16____
However, there are doubts as to whether this well-intentioned initiative can be put into practice. ____17____ While the regular two-day weekend is still a dream for a large number of working people in various industries, a two-and-half-day weekend is really a luxury many people can barely afford.
____18____ If staff workers of government departments and public institutions no longer work on Friday afternoons, local residents will have nowhere to go if they have urgent issues to solve through these establishments.
Obviously, the only way out is to implement policies concerning paid annual leave in a realistic manner so that the working people can make arrangements for their days off work. As a result, holidaymakers don’t need to all rush to the same scenic spots during the same period of time, which would be beneficial to the protection and operation of these spots. ____19____ Thus it serves the initial purpose of boosting economic growth through developing tourism.
____20____ The government is supposed to pay more attention to the protection of labor rights and employ all possible means to ensure their holidays as well as the functions of government institutions, instead of just making economically motivated policies.
A. Also, this is an effective way to increase consumer spending.
B. The right of workers to rest and paid annual leave are protected under the law.
C. A larger number of workers, if not all, will benefit from official holiday arrangements.
D. Most people think that they will actually not be able to enjoy the benefits of such a scheme.
E. After rest and relaxation, employees will become more energetic when they come back to work.
F. Another worry is that this measure will finally be exclusively (专有地) enjoyed by a limited number of employees.
G. As long as paid annual leave remains unrealistic in most industrial sectors, the two-and-half-day weekend seems pointless.
【答案】16. E 17. D 18. F 19. A 20. G
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。国务院办公厅鼓励依法优化调整夏季作息安排，为职工周五下午与周末结合外出休闲度假创造有利条件。在稳定全国统一的既有节假日前提下，各单位和企业可根据自身实际情况，将带薪休假与本地传统节日、地方特色活动相结合，安排错峰休假。
【详解】1. 根据空前“People will have more time to be together with their families. ”（人们将有更多的时间和家人在一起）可知，享受更长的周末，员工可以和家人在一起休息，再回到岗位能够更有活力。故E 项“After rest and relaxation, employees will become more energetic when they come back to work.”（经过休息和放松，当员工回到工作岗位时，他们会变得更有活力）符合语境。故选E。
2. 根据空前“However, there are doubts as to whether this well-intentioned initiative can be put into practice.”（然而，有人怀疑这一善意的倡议是否能付诸实践）可知，人们对此项政策能够实施产生疑虑，担心无法受益。故D项“Most people think that they will actually not be able to enjoy the benefits of such a scheme.”（大多数人认为他们实际上无法享受到这样一个计划带来的好处）符合语境，呼应doubts。故选D。
3. 根据空后“ If staff workers of government departments and public institutions no longer work on Friday afternoons, local residents will have nowhere to go if they have urgent issues to solve through these establishments.”（如果政府部门和事业单位的工作人员在周五下午不上班，当地居民如果有紧急问题需要通过这些机构解决，就无处可去了）可知，另外一个担心是政府机关周五下午放假导致紧急公共服务缺失。F项“Another worry is that this measure will finally be exclusively (专有地) enjoyed by a limited number of employees.”（另一个担忧是，这一措施最终将只适用于有限数量的员工）符合语境。故选F。
4. 根据空前“Obviously, the only way out is to implement policies concerning paid annual leave in a realistic manner so that the working people can make arrangements for their days off work. As a result, holidaymakers don’t need to all rush to the same scenic spots during the same period of time, which would be beneficial to the protection and operation of these spots. ”（显然，唯一的出路是切实执行带薪年假政策，让劳动人民可以安排他们的休息日。这样一来，度假者就不需要在同一时间段都赶往同一景点，这将有利于这些景点的保护和运营）可知，建议改进以保障政策实施到位，由此推知，下面要进一步指出这样做的优点。A项“Also, this is an effective way to increase consumer spending.”（此外，这也是增加消费支出的有效方式） 符合语境。故选A。
5. 根据空后“ The government is supposed to pay more attention to the protection of labor rights and employ all possible means to ensure their holidays as well as the functions of government institutions, instead of just making economically motivated policies.”（政府应该更加关注劳工权利的保护，采取一切可能的手段来确保他们的假期以及政府机构的功能，而不是仅仅制定经济驱动的政策）可知，总结使带薪年休实施到位的重要性。除非政府保护否则两天半的周末没有意义。G项“As long as paid annual leave remains unrealistic in most industrial sectors, the two-and-half-day weekend seems pointless.”（只要带薪年假在大多数工业部门仍然不现实，两天半的周末似乎就没有意义）符合语境。故选G。

Not only ____42____ (be) chicken bones superabundant at the site, but there are signs that people were buried with the birds, ____43____ Lebrasseur says makes a domestic relationship clear. Lebrasseur and her team suspect chicken domestication might have been triggered by the ____44____ (appear) of cereal fanning in South-East Asia. “This created a more open, less tree-covered environment, which is actually an environment where red jungle fowl thrive,” she says, “And they could have fed ____45____ the waste from human societies.”
【答案】36. making

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了家养鸡的历史。
【详解】1. 考查非谓语动词。句意：这些鸟似乎不是为了吃肉而饲养的，不清楚是什么驱动了驯化。分析可知，空处及之后的内容在句中为结果状语，所以此处用现在分词。故填making。
2. 考查非谓语动词。句意：今天活着的这些鸡是一种原产于东南亚的野生鸟类——红色丛林鸡的后代，但是确切的驯化时间还不清楚。分析可知，句中已有谓语动词descend，此处为过去分词作后置定语修饰名词a wild bird，意为“被叫做red jungle fowl的野鸟”，故填called。
3. 考查连词。句意同上。空处引导主语从句，从句成分完整，此处指究竟什么时候开始驯养鸡的还不明确，连接副词when“什么时候”，符合题意，故填when。
4. 考查非谓语。句意：一些研究人员估计，第一只家鸡生活在6000多年前，而其他人声称发现鸡骨头在10,000年前的遗址。claim to do sth“声称做某事”，是固定短语，且“发现”发生在“声称”之前，应用不定式的完成式，故填to have found。
5. 考查冠词。句意：法国图卢兹人类生物学和基因组学中心的奥菲利·勒布拉瑟和她的研究小组的一项分析得出结论，最早明确的家鸡证据出现在公元前1650年至公元前1250年之间的泰国中部一个叫 Ban Non Wat 的地方。analysis“研究”为可数名词，结合句中“analysis by Ophelie at the Centre for Anthropobiology and Genomics of Toulouse in France and her team ”可知，此处指法国图卢兹人类生物学和基因组学中心的奥菲利·勒布拉瑟和她的研究小组的一项分析，所以表示泛指，因analysis的首个音素为元音音素，所以用不定冠词an，位于句首，首字母要大写。故填An。
6. 考查形容词最高级。句意同上。定冠词the用在形容词的最高级前面，此处指最早的证据出现在1,650 BC and 1,250 BC之间，故填earliest。
7. 考查主谓一致。句意：现场不仅有大量的鸡骨头，而且有迹象表明人们和这些鸟一起被埋葬，勒布拉塞尔说，这清楚地表明了家庭关系。主语为chicken bones，且陈述客观事实，应用一般现在时；故填are。
8. 考查定语从句。句意同上。分析可知，空处及其后内容为非限制定语从句，空处指代前面整句话，从句缺少主语，所以用关系代词which，故填which。
9. 考查名词。句意：勒布拉瑟和她的团队怀疑，东南亚谷物种植的出现可能引发了鸡的驯化。结合空前定冠词可知，此处要用名词。故填appearance。
10. 考查介词。句意：它们可以以人类社会的垃圾为食。固定短语：feed on以……为食。故填on。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语编写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was a single mother in my 30s who lived down and out with my daughter Peggy in a small apartment, struggling hard to make our needs meet.
One day, I headed to the downtown for an interview. I sat down in the streetcar, and there against the seat was a beautiful silk umbrella with a silver handle decorated with gold scrolls, among which there was a name carved.
On impulse(冲动) I determined to find the owner myself. I got off the streetcar in the heavy rain and thankfully opened the umbrella to protect myself. Then I searched a telephone book for the name, I found it immediately and called it, waiting patiently, and then a lady answered.
"Yes, “she said in surprise, with extreme excitement." It was my umbrella which had been stolen a year ago.”
So appealing was her pleasure that I forgot I was looking for a job and went directly to her small house. She took the umbrella, with teary eyes, explaining with choking voice that the umbrella was given by her parents, now dead, Her happiness at retrieving(找回)this special possession was such that to have accepted her reward would have spoiled something, so I refused her offer and left.
The following months were hard. I can only obtain temporary employment, for a small salary. What was worse, I had just lost my last job before Christmas, with only fifteen dollars left. Unless a miracle happened, I would be homeless in January, foodless and jobless. I had prayed steadily for weeks, and there had been no answer but this coldness and darkness.
The air was full of Christmas merriment, with the bells ringing and children shouting in the bitter dusk of the evening. But there should be no Christmas for me, I knew, no gifts, no remembrance whatsoever.
Thinking of this, I couldn’t control my tears on my way home, but I managed a smile so could greet my little daughter. She opened the door for me and threw herself in my arms, screaming joyously and demanding desirably for her Christmas gift. There I stood, frozen, overwhelmed by misery.

When he had gone, I didn't know what to do. Later, Peggy and I sat on the floor looking at each other. What a surprise! I looked for the name of the sender.
Suddenly, a note attached to one package caught my eyes. I picked up the note, which read "Thanks for returning of the umbrella. Merry Christmas! ""It was sent by the lady. Holding the note tightly, I was on the verge of tears, with a stream of warmth spreading through my body. On that cold Christmas, I forgot I had no money for the rent and only fifteen dollars in my pocket. We just sat in our small apartment unwrapping the gifts one by one in happiness. A sweet peace flooded me like a blessing which made me hopeful again.
