Cats have no emotions. At least,that's what my husband once claimed. I argued that my two cats experience emotions. They feel anger, fear, and happiness. He agreed with me, but stuck to his opinion that cats don't feel love. However, my tuxedo cat, Sebastian, would teach him otherwise.
When my next-door neighbour moved in, he had a cat named Juliet. She was an indoor lady, always watching the environment through the window. Then one day when I accompanied my cat to the backyard for his playtime,Sebastian caught sight of Juliet gazing at him behind the window. It soon became obvious that they were attracted by each other. So every day thereafter, whenever I let Sebastian out, he would rush straight to the backyard next-door and they would sit gazing lovingly at each other through the screen, she inside, and he outside. Even my husband watched in amazement, and he would murmur, “But cats can't feel love... can they?”
Five months later, my neighbour had to move because of work. My heart sank. I wondered how Sebastian would react to Juliet's leaving.
For months after Juliet moved away and the new neighbour moved in, I often caught Sebastian sitting by Juliet's window,looking into the apartment in search of his lady. The new neighbour didn't mind having the“Peeping(偷看）Sebastian” after I explained his reason for being there. Sebastian marked the small area outside that window as his territory. Other male cats were allowed in the backyard, but not near Juliet's window, which he guarded until his death.
Even now, when my husband and I walk through the backyard and see that window, he reminds me of the lesson Sebastian taught him... that cats do indeed fall in love.
24. According to the author, ______
A. cats have feelings B. cats have no emotions
C.cats can only feel love D. cats are not able to fall in love
25. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?
A.Juliet was allowed to go out.
B. Sebastian enjoyed the moment with Juliet.
C. The author was the only person to accompany her cat.
D. The author's husband hated the two cats staying together.
26. Why did Sebastian mark the small area outside that window as his territory?
A. Because he couldn't play in the backyard.
B. Because he couldn't get along with other cats.
C. Because there were few places for him to play.
D. Because the area was guarded by him for Juliet.
27. Which of the following changed the husband's opinion on cats?
A. The death of Sebastian. B. The neighbor's sudden departure.
C. The story between the two cats. D. The argument between him and the author.
C
Culture is too complex to define in simple terms. However, there are certain agreed-on fundamentals that can be easily identified. One is that culture is a total pattern of behaviour that is consistent in its components. Another fundamental is that culture is learned behaviour. The third is that culture is behaviour that is shared by a group of people.
To understand the culture of a particular country or region, one could examine its components, among which are material culture, language, and social organization. Material culture includes the' tools and symbols in a society, not including those physical things found in nature, unless they have undergone some change or have been given meaning by people. For example, a mouse running on a street is not part of a culture, but the Mickey Mouse is. The way we consume and what we consume are heavily influenced by material culture.
Language is the most obvious difference between cultures,which reflects the nature and values of that culture. Industrialized societies have a rich vocabulary for commercial and industrial activities, while less industrialized societies may have richer vocabularies for matters important to their societies.
Social organization differs somewhat from society to society. The primary kind of community association is based on blood ties. In many developing countries, the extended family fulfills several social 'and economic roles. It provides mutual protection, psychological support and a kind of economic insurance or social security for its members. The term “brothers” in Zaire includes those whom we call cousins and uncles.
Cultural analysis serves a variety of purposes. Understanding the various dimensions and their inter-relatedness helps promote cross-cultural awareness. It leads on to the promotion of goodwill, social and economic planning and harmony between social groupings or societies.
28. What can be the best title of the text?
A.What is culture? B. What is material culture?
C. Why is culture complex to define? D. Why is cultural analysis necessary?
29.According Paragraph 2, which of the following belongs to material culture?
A.Sound of raindrops. B.Trees growing in the wild.
C. A mouse running on a street. D.A mouse called Mickey Mouse.
30. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.Extended family. B.Primary society.
C. Social organization. D. Community association.
31. What's the author's purpose in writing the last paragraph?
A. To give a definition of cultural analysis.
B.To show the benefits of cultural analysis.
C. To express the wishes to the human society.
D. To discuss the effect of the promotion of culture.
D
A butterfly-shaped island in the central Aegean hopes to become Greece's first carbon-free tourist destination.Under a deal with the government, Volkswagen, a carmaker, has donated several new electric vehicles for use by Astypalea's public services; it will sell others at cost price to its 1,200 year-round residents. In return, the government has offered more financial assistance for islanders to buy electric cars and will build a solar and wind-fuelled power plant to replace polluting generators.
Unlike other nearby islands, Astypalea is not connected to Greece's electricity providers. With only 3,000 rooms for visitors in small hotels or flats, tourism is still low-key. Many residents make a living the old-fashioned way: raising goats, keeping bees and fishing. The island was selected for Volkswagen's experiment after Nikos Komineas,the go-ahead mayor, contacted the transport ministry for help in finding an electric bus to try out on its rough roads.
Most islanders sound keen on the project. Mr Komineas expects the number of private cars on Astypalea to fall by a third over the next five years. Its residents, he says, will get around on electric minibuses, which will be free,linked to a mobile-phone app and available round the clock.
Some observers smell greenwashing in the project. A bid for a solar park that would generate half the island's electricity within three years will not get under way before the tourist season ends. A single wind-fuelled engine will be set up only in 2026, assuming the licensing process goes smoothly. That is not normally the case in the Aegean, where islanders worry that tourists will go elsewhere if the view is spoiled by an engine 200 meters high. And even then, the solar and wind-fulled power unit is planned to cover only about 80% of summer demand. But it is a start.
32. Why has Volkswagen signed the deal with the government?
A. To control car prices. B. To help generate electricity.
C. To promote public transport. D. To build a zero-carbon island.
33. What makes Astypalea different from other nearby islands?
A. It has an aggressive leader. B. It is out of the national electricity network.
C. It is a crowded tourist destination. D. It has various goats, bees and fishes.
34. The underlined word “green washing” in Paragraph 4 probably means
A. an island with few tourists B.a process with little support
C. an engine with no polluting fuel D. a strategy with no meaningful changes
35. What does the author think of the project?
A.It's pioneering. B. It's practical.
C. It's destructive. D. It's costly.

We have stepped into an era of excess information, with each “red spot” shown on the screen and every ring-tone sounded in our ears reminding us of the highlights that can't be missed. This tired world is flooded with the fragmented pieces of news.36 Here are Five ways to stop feeling overwhelmed by the news.
Limit the time spent reading news
___37___ One way to reduce the impact of the non-stop news headline cycle is to use screen-time trackers, available on IOS and Android, to limit the time you spend reading or watching the news on your mobile.

___38___ A 2016 study found that push notifications “exerted a negative influence on cognitive function” through disruption to daily tasks.
___39___
Academic Hans Rosling refers to “Factfulness” as a means of keeping world news in perspective.

Rosling calls it “understanding as a source of mental peace”.
Prioritise trusted news sources
Eric Carlsson, a professor in media and communication studies, says: “There has been a crisis of knowledge and truth owing to fake news, much of which is spread on the unregulated platforms of social media.” _40_____
No news before bed
Research has shown that screen use before bed resets our internal clock and disrupts sleep. So reading the news onscreen before bed can make your mornings even more anxious and tiring.

C.Then how to cope with the anxiety?

The Greatest Scientist in My Heart
第二节（满分25分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The day was Thankful Thursday, our “chosen day” of service. It's a weekly tradition that my two little girls and I began years ago. Thursday has become our day to go out in the world and make a positive contribution, however small it is. On this particular Thursday, we had no idea exactly what we were going to do, but we knew that something would present itself.
Driving along a busy Houston road,I prayed for guidance in our quest to fulfill our weekly Act of Kindness.Around the noon hour, my two little ones wasted no time in letting me know their hunger, chanting, “McDonald's, McDonald's, McDonald's" as we drove along. And I began searching earnestly for the nearest McDonald's. Suddenly I realized that almost every crossroad I passed through was occupied by a beggar. And then it hit me!
If my two little ones were hungry, then all these beggars must be hungry, too. Perfect! Our Act of Kindness had presented itself. We were going to buy lunch for the beggars. After finding a McDonald's and ordering two Happy Meals for my girls, I ordered an additional 15 lunches and we set out to deliver them. It was exciting. We would pull alongside a beggar, make a contribution, and tell him or her that we hoped things got better. Then we'd say, “Oh, by the way... here's lunch.” And then we would head to the next crossroad.
It was the best way to give. There wasn't enough time for us to introduce ourselves or explain what we were going to do, nor was there time for them to say anything back to us. The Act of Kindness was anonymous and empowering for each of us, and we loved what we saw in the rear view mirror: a surprised and delighted person holding up his lunch bag and just looking at us as we drove off. It was wonderful!
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
We had come to the end of our “route” and there was a small woman standing there, asking for change.


She just looked at me with her huge brown eyes and said, “Oh honey, I'm not going to eat this lunch. This is my daughter's favorite.”

B
Cats have no emotions. At least,that's what my husband once claimed. I argued that my two cats experience emotions. They feel anger, fear, and happiness. He agreed with me, but stuck to his opinion that cats don't feel love. However, my tuxedo cat, Sebastian, would teach him otherwise.
When my next-door neighbour moved in, he had a cat named Juliet. She was an indoor lady, always watching the environment through the window. Then one day when I accompanied my cat to the backyard for his playtime,Sebastian caught sight of Juliet gazing at him behind the window. It soon became obvious that they were attracted by each other. So every day thereafter, whenever I let Sebastian out, he would rush straight to the backyard next-door and they would sit gazing lovingly at each other through the screen, she inside, and he outside. Even my husband watched in amazement, and he would murmur, “But cats can't feel love... can they?”
Five months later, my neighbour had to move because of work. My heart sank. I wondered how Sebastian would react to Juliet's leaving.
For months after Juliet moved away and the new neighbour moved in, I often caught Sebastian sitting by Juliet's window,looking into the apartment in search of his lady. The new neighbour didn't mind having the“Peeping(偷看）Sebastian” after I explained his reason for being there. Sebastian marked the small area outside that window as his territory. Other male cats were allowed in the backyard, but not near Juliet's window, which he guarded until his death.
Even now, when my husband and I walk through the backyard and see that window, he reminds me of the lesson Sebastian taught him... that cats do indeed fall in love.
24. According to the author, ______
A. cats have feelings B. cats have no emotions
C.cats can only feel love D. cats are not able to fall in love
25. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?
A.Juliet was allowed to go out.
B. Sebastian enjoyed the moment with Juliet.
C. The author was the only person to accompany her cat.
D. The author's husband hated the two cats staying together.
26. Why did Sebastian mark the small area outside that window as his territory?
A. Because he couldn't play in the backyard.
B. Because he couldn't get along with other cats.
C. Because there were few places for him to play.
D. Because the area was guarded by him for Juliet.
27. Which of the following changed the husband's opinion on cats?
A. The death of Sebastian. B. The neighbor's sudden departure.
C. The story between the two cats. D. The argument between him and the author.
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者的丈夫不相信猫之间有感情，可是自己的猫Sebastian和邻居的猫Juliet之间所展现的爱给作者的丈夫上了一课，让作者的丈夫深刻体会到了猫之间有爱。
【解答】24.细节理解题。根据第一段中的I argued that my two cats experience emotions.They feel anger，fear，and happiness.（我认为我的两只猫有情感体验。他们感到愤怒、恐惧和快乐。）可知，在作者看来，猫是有感情的。故选A。
25.推理判断题。根据第二段中的So every day thereafter，whenever I let Sebastian out，he would rush straight to the backyard next-door and they would sit gazing lovingly at each other through the screen，she inside，and he outside.（因此，从那以后的每一天，每当我让塞巴斯蒂安出去，他就会直接冲到隔壁的后院，他们会坐在那里，透过屏风深情凝视着对方，她在里面，他在外面。）可以推知，Sebastian很享受和Juliet在一起的时光。故选B。
26.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的
Sebastian marked the small area outside that window as his territory.Other male cats were allowed in the backyard，but not near Juliet's window，which he guarded until his death.（Sebastian把窗外的一小块地方标为他的领地。其他公猫被允许进入后院，但不能靠近Juliet的窗户，他一直守护着那扇窗户，直到他死去。）可知，Sebastian之所以把那个窗户外面的小区域标为自己的领地是因为这个区域是他为Juliet守卫的。故选D。
27.推理判断题。根据最后一段Even now，when my husband and I walk through the backyard and see that window，he reminds me of the lesson Sebastian taught him...that cats do indeed fall in love.（即使是现在，当我和丈夫走过后院看到那扇窗户时，他还是会让我想起Sebastian给他上的一课......猫确实会坠入爱河。）可知，是两只猫之间的故事改变了丈夫对猫的看法。故选C。

C
Culture is too complex to define in simple terms. However, there are certain agreed-on fundamentals that can be easily identified. One is that culture is a total pattern of behaviour that is consistent in its components. Another fundamental is that culture is learned behaviour. The third is that culture is behaviour that is shared by a group of people.
To understand the culture of a particular country or region, one could examine its components, among which are material culture, language, and social organization. Material culture includes the' tools and symbols in a society, not including those physical things found in nature, unless they have undergone some change or have been given meaning by people. For example, a mouse running on a street is not part of a culture, but the Mickey Mouse is. The way we consume and what we consume are heavily influenced by material culture.
Language is the most obvious difference between cultures,which reflects the nature and values of that culture. Industrialized societies have a rich vocabulary for commercial and industrial activities, while less industrialized societies may have richer vocabularies for matters important to their societies.
Social organization differs somewhat from society to society. The primary kind of community association is based on blood ties. In many developing countries, the extended family fulfills several social 'and economic roles. It provides mutual protection, psychological support and a kind of economic insurance or social security for its members. The term “brothers” in Zaire includes those whom we call cousins and uncles.
Cultural analysis serves a variety of purposes. Understanding the various dimensions and their inter-relatedness helps promote cross-cultural awareness. It leads on to the promotion of goodwill, social and economic planning and harmony between social groupings or societies.
28. What can be the best title of the text?
A.What is culture? B. What is material culture?
C. Why is culture complex to define? D. Why is cultural analysis necessary?
29.According Paragraph 2, which of the following belongs to material culture?
A.Sound of raindrops. B.Trees growing in the wild.
C. A mouse running on a street. D.A mouse called Mickey Mouse.
30. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A.Extended family. B.Primary society.
C. Social organization. D. Community association.
31. What's the author's purpose in writing the last paragraph?
A. To give a definition of cultural analysis.
B.To show the benefits of cultural analysis.
C. To express the wishes to the human society.
D. To discuss the effect of the promotion of culture.
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，文章介绍了文化分析的多种用途。
【解答】28.主旨大意题。主旨大意题。从文章首段和尾段了解到整篇文章主要在说明文化的基本内容。 。故选A。
29.细节理解题。根据第二段For example，a mouse running on a street is not part of a culture，but the Mickey Mouse is.（例如，在街上奔跑的老鼠不是一种文化的一部分，但米老鼠是。）可知是人们创造出来的才是文化，D项"一只叫米老鼠的老鼠。"符合题意。故选D。
30.代词指代题.根据前一句In many developing countries，the extended family fulfills several social and economic roles.（在许多发展中国家，大家庭扮演着多种社会和经济角色。）可知it指代前文提到的大家庭。故选A。
31.写作意图题。根据最后一段Cultural analysis serves a variety of purposes.（文化分析有多种用途。）可知是说明文化分析的作用。故选B。

D
A butterfly-shaped island in the central Aegean hopes to become Greece's first carbon-free tourist destination.Under a deal with the government, Volkswagen, a carmaker, has donated several new electric vehicles for use by Astypalea's public services; it will sell others at cost price to its 1,200 year-round residents. In return, the government has offered more financial assistance for islanders to buy electric cars and will build a solar and wind-fuelled power plant to replace polluting generators.
Unlike other nearby islands, Astypalea is not connected to Greece's electricity providers. With only 3,000 rooms for visitors in small hotels or flats, tourism is still low-key. Many residents make a living the old-fashioned way: raising goats, keeping bees and fishing. The island was selected for Volkswagen's experiment after Nikos Komineas,the go-ahead mayor, contacted the transport ministry for help in finding an electric bus to try out on its rough roads.
Most islanders sound keen on the project. Mr Komineas expects the number of private cars on Astypalea to fall by a third over the next five years. Its residents, he says, will get around on electric minibuses, which will be free,linked to a mobile-phone app and available round the clock.
Some observers smell greenwashing in the project. A bid for a solar park that would generate half the island's electricity within three years will not get under way before the tourist season ends. A single wind-fuelled engine will be set up only in 2026, assuming the licensing process goes smoothly. That is not normally the case in the Aegean, where islanders worry that tourists will go elsewhere if the view is spoiled by an engine 200 meters high. And even then, the solar and wind-fulled power unit is planned to cover only about 80% of summer demand. But it is a start.
32. Why has Volkswagen signed the deal with the government?
A. To control car prices. B. To help generate electricity.
C. To promote public transport. D. To build a zero-carbon island.
33. What makes Astypalea different from other nearby islands?
A. It has an aggressive leader. B. It is out of the national electricity network.
C. It is a crowded tourist destination. D. It has various goats, bees and fishes.
34. The underlined word “green washing” in Paragraph 4 probably means
A. an island with few tourists B.a process with little support
C. an engine with no polluting fuel D. a strategy with no meaningful changes
35. What does the author think of the project?
A.It's pioneering. B. It's practical.
C. It's destructive. D. It's costly.
【分析】本文主要讲述了一个有关低碳生活的实验。
32.细节理解题。根据第一段A butterfly-shaped island in the central Aegean hopes to become Greece's first carbon-free tourist destination.（爱琴海中部的一个蝴蝶形岛屿希望成为希腊第一个无碳旅游目的地。）可知政府想把这个岛变成无碳岛，所以大众和政府合作。故选D。
33.细节理解题。根据第二段Unlike other nearby islands，Astypalea is not connected to Greece's electricity providers.（与附近的其他岛屿不同，阿斯蒂帕利亚没有与希腊的电力供应商相连。）可知这个岛没有电。故选B。
34.画线词所在句子是该段主题句。该段主要介绍了对这一举措的负面评价，认为这一举 措不可行，甚至还会带来消极影响，只是披着环保外衣而已。故选D。
35.情感态度题。根据最后一句But it is a start.（但它是个开始。）可知作者认为这个项目是具有开创性的。故选A。
【点评】做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案。
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能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
We have stepped into an era of excess information, with each “red spot” shown on the screen and every ring-tone sounded in our ears reminding us of the highlights that can't be missed. This tired world is flooded with the fragmented pieces of news.36 Here are Five ways to stop feeling overwhelmed by the news.
Limit the time spent reading news
___37___ One way to reduce the impact of the non-stop news headline cycle is to use screen-time trackers, available on IOS and Android, to limit the time you spend reading or watching the news on your mobile.
Turn off push notifications
If the urge is too strong to resist, then at least turn off your push notifications from news apps.
___38___ A 2016 study found that push notifications “exerted a negative influence on cognitive function” through disruption to daily tasks.
___39___
Academic Hans Rosling refers to “Factfulness” as a means of keeping world news in perspective. If we focus on the bigger picture, such as the percentage of people living in extreme poverty halving in the past 20 years, it may be easier to remain optimistic. Rosling calls it “understanding as a source of mental peace”.
Prioritise trusted news sources
Eric Carlsson, a professor in media and communication studies, says: “There has been a crisis of knowledge and truth owing to fake news, much of which is spread on the unregulated platforms of social media.” _40_____
No news before bed
Research has shown that screen use before bed resets our internal clock and disrupts sleep. So reading the news onscreen before bed can make your mornings even more anxious and tiring.
A.Read the good news.
B. But is this really our fault?
C.Then how to cope with the anxiety?
D. Make sure you always stick to the fact.
E.“Headline anxiety” is a growing problem.
F.Find your news instead,through reliable publications.
G. This can stop you from being upset with breaking events.
【分析】我们已经步入了一个信息过剩的时代，屏幕上显示的每一个"红点"和耳边响起的每一声铃声都在提醒我们不容错过的亮点。这个疲惫的世界充斥着零碎的新闻。本文介绍了五种方法来避免被新闻淹没。
【解答】36.联系上下文。根据Here are Five ways to stop feeling overwhelmed by the news.（以下是五种方法来避免被新闻淹没。）可知前文是说如何环境新闻带来的焦虑感，C项"那么如何应对焦虑呢？"符合语境。故选C。
37.联系上下文。根据后文One way to reduce the impact of the non-stop news headline cycle（解决新闻头条带来的影响有一种方式）可知新闻头条焦虑是越来越严重的问题，E项""头条焦虑"是一个日益严重的问题。"符合语境。故选E。
38.联系上下文。根据If the urge is too strong to resist，then at least turn off your push notifications from news apps.（如果这种冲动太强烈而无法抗拒，那么至少关闭新闻应用程序的推送通知。）可知后文是说这样做可以缓解新闻带来的沮丧感，G项"这可以防止你对突发事件感到不安。"符合语境。故选G。
39.段落大意题。根据本段内容，学者罗斯林提出了“真确”这一概念，将其理解为正确 看待世界新闻的方式。如果我们放眼更大的格局——比如，在过去的 20 年里，全球 的赤贫人口占比已经减半——那么保持乐观可能会更容易些。他称之为“理解是精神 安宁的源泉。”可知，本段主要讲的是要读正面新闻，所以我们选择 A 选项“Read the good news．（阅读正面新闻。）”能够概括本段段意，故选 A。
40.联系上下文。根据上文There has been a crisis of knowledge and truth owing to fake news，much of which is spread on the unregulated platforms of social media.（假新闻导致了知识和真相的危机，其中大部分是在不受监管的社交媒体平台上传播的。）可知很多新闻来自不可靠的平台，所以我们要要可靠平台阅读新闻，F项"相反，通过可靠的出版物找到你的新闻。"符合语境。故选F。
【点评】七选五阅读是完成性阅读，和完形填空很类似，不同的是一个选词，一个选句子。解题时，要注意上下文语境，充分考虑信息词（选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词），选出最符合语境的句子。

【分析】这是一篇说明文，主要讲述了丹麦希望到2030年所有国内航班都不使用化石燃料。总理梅特•弗雷德里克森在新年讲话中宣布了这一目标。
【解答】56.考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：总理梅特•弗雷德里克森在新年讲话中宣布了这一目标。描述现状，所以用一般现在时态，主语为专有名词，故填is。
57.考查冠词。句意：它以自行车爱好者的天堂和注重生态的食品专家的巨大目的地而闻名，现在它甚至有了一个废物发电工厂和自己的滑雪场。泛指一个，所以用不定冠词，故填a。
58.考查介词。句意：然而，最令人印象深刻的是，该国的目标是到2030年将碳排放量减少70%。表示"减少了"，差额用介词by，故填by。
59.考查连词。句意：总理Mette Frederiksen在演讲中表示，这些改变是必要的，因为"旅行就是生活，因此我们要飞行"。前后是因果关系，所以用because引导原因状语从句，故填because。
60.考查动名词。句意：研究人员已经在为这些飞行寻找替代燃料，氢是最有可能的竞争者。作介词的宾语，所以用动名词，故填finding。
61.考查最高级。句意：研究人员已经在为这些飞行寻找替代燃料，氢是最有可能的竞争者。前面有定冠词，表示"最可能"，所以用形容词最高级，故填most likely。
62.考查副词。句意：幸运地是，这个斯堪的纳维亚国家并不是唯一一个试图让乘飞机成为更环保旅行选择的国家。修饰句子，所以用副词，放在句首，所以开头字母要大写，故填Fortunately。
63.考查动词时态语态。句意：为了实现这一目标，他们将很快对化石燃料飞机的排放征税。根据时间状语soon，可知描述将来的事情，所以用一般将来时态，ban和主语之间是被动关系，所以用被动语态，故填will be taxed。
64.考查动词不定式。句意：与此同时，在法国，原本可以被两个半小时以下的火车旅行取代的航班可能会被禁止。be likely to do sth."可能做某事"，表示"可能被禁止"，所以用不定式的被动形式，故填to be banned。
65.考查可数名词的单数。句意：下一个会是美国或中国这样的大国吗？前面有不定冠词，所以用名词单数，表示"参与者"，故填player。
【点评】做本题的关键是在理解短文的基础上，灵活运用所学的基础知识。本类型的题目常考到的知识点有：固定的短语，词类的转换，名词的复数形式，副词以及祈使句的用法等。因此，这就需要在平时的学习中，牢固掌握各语言点及一些语法知识。

第二节（满分25分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The day was Thankful Thursday, our “chosen day” of service. It's a weekly tradition that my two little girls and I began years ago. Thursday has become our day to go out in the world and make a positive contribution, however small it is. On this particular Thursday, we had no idea exactly what we were going to do, but we knew that something would present itself.
Driving along a busy Houston road,I prayed for guidance in our quest to fulfill our weekly Act of Kindness.Around the noon hour, my two little ones wasted no time in letting me know their hunger, chanting, “McDonald's, McDonald's, McDonald's" as we drove along. And I began searching earnestly for the nearest McDonald's. Suddenly I realized that almost every crossroad I passed through was occupied by a beggar. And then it hit me!
If my two little ones were hungry, then all these beggars must be hungry, too. Perfect! Our Act of Kindness had presented itself. We were going to buy lunch for the beggars. After finding a McDonald's and ordering two Happy Meals for my girls, I ordered an additional 15 lunches and we set out to deliver them. It was exciting. We would pull alongside a beggar, make a contribution, and tell him or her that we hoped things got better. Then we'd say, “Oh, by the way... here's lunch.” And then we would head to the next crossroad.
It was the best way to give. There wasn't enough time for us to introduce ourselves or explain what we were going to do, nor was there time for them to say anything back to us. The Act of Kindness was anonymous and empowering for each of us, and we loved what we saw in the rear view mirror: a surprised and delighted person holding up his lunch bag and just looking at us as we drove off. It was wonderful!

高分句型二：So many times I had questioned whether our Acts of Kindness were too small or insignificant to really make any change.
译文：我曾多次质疑我们的善举是否太小或微不足道，无法真正做出任何改变。

【解答】We had come to the end of our "route" and there was a small woman standing there，asking for change.We handed her our final lunch bag ，and then made a U-turn to head back in the opposite direction for home.Unfortunately，the light stopped us；I was confused　and didn't know quite how to behave."No one has ever done anything like this for me before，" the woman said with gratitude.I replied， "Well，I'm glad that we were the first."Feeling uneasy ，and wanting to move the conversation along，l asked， "So，when do you　 think you'll eat your lunch？"【高分句型一】（作者和女人的对话）
 She just looked at me with her huge brown eyes and said， "Oh honey，I'm not going to eat this lunch.This is my daughter's favorite." I was confused，and she continued， "I have a little girl of my own at home and she just likes McDonald's，but I can never buy it for her because I just don't have the money.You know what….tonight she is going to have McDonald's!"So many times I had questioned whether our Acts of Kindness were too small or insignificant to really make any change. 【高分句型二】Yet in that moment，I recognized the meaning　of Mother Teresa's words，　 "We cannot do great things - only small things with great love."（女人要将食物留给女儿，作者意识到他对他人的影响）
【点评】解题方法点拨
（1）品读原文。确定文章线索
      每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路，通过精读文章，找到该篇文章的写作线索。如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜（结尾）"。
      （2）仔细审题，明确续写要求
      一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此类短文续写的具体要求，如词数限制使用几处标有下划线的关键词语。续写段落的首句提示，这样考生可以做到"心中有数"。
      （3）回扣原文，揣摩续写思路
      根据文章后面的要求，再次快速阅读短文，抓住文章的思路结合段首的提示语最终确定续写段落的思路。同时结合文章画线词语提示，确定续写段落的内容。
      （4）拟写草稿，修改错词病句
      在确定了思路和内容之后。最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中画线的关键词拟写草稿。拟写时，注意句子结构的多样性，语言的丰富性，并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用，使上下文连贯。
