Two weeks ago, I had an amazing trip to my friend’s house in Serawai. Serawai is the name of a sub-district in Sintang Regency, Indonesia.
At that time, I was warmly welcomed by peaceful green yard. My trip was full of unforgettable moments: great people, delicious food, and new cultures. However, what left a remarkable impression on me was meeting up with my friend’s dad, Fx. Ngawan. He is now working as an education supervisor in Sintang Regency.
At our first encounter, he looked like a typical Dayaknese man with dark skin. As he mentioned that he used to be an English teacher, we discovered we were a match! I am an English teacher myself. More importantly, he is a language enthusiast and a hyperpolyglot(超级多语者). During the talk, we often switched from one language to the other such as Indonesian, English, Javanese to Ahe. He is now fluent in at least 15 languages and most of them are local languages.
When he was assigned to be a teacher and education supervisor, he had to go all the way from Serawai sub-district to Sintang Regency by motorcycle, riding about 170km by motorcycle. The trip could take six hours if the day was bright and sunny. However, it was not uncommon for him to spend three to seven days for the journey if the raining season came. Therefore, he had to stop at some villages if he couldn’t continue the trip and meet up with people with so many different languages along the way. So, whenever he stopped in a particular village, he learned a different language. For him, learning languages helped him to connect with people.
In our last talk, he highlighted the importance of learning languages. He hopes that the younger generation in Indonesiastart realizing that language is the gate to open up so many opportunities. Local languages are on the brink of disappearance because more people are leaving it behind. When people stop speaking the languages, the knowledge and culture from that language will also disappear.
4. Which of the following impressed the author most?
A. Peaceful green yard. B. Delicious food.
C. Great people. D. Fx. Ngawan.
5. How was Ngawan’s motorcycle trip?
A. Difficult. B. Instructive. C. Exciting. D. Interesting.
6. What benefit did Ngawan get in his long trip?
A. He got enough rest. B. He learned some languages.
C. He did much exercise. D. He made many friends.
7. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Learning languages isn’t an easy job.
B. Young people don’t grasp opportunities.
C. Local languages are being more important.
D. Languages and culture are closely related.
4-7 DABD
【解析】
4.细节理解题。文章第二段第三句提到“However, what left a remarkable impression on me was meeting up with my friend’s dad, Fx. Ngawan.”可知，给作者留下深刻印象的是与作者朋友的父亲Ngawan的见面，故选D。
5.推理判断题。文章第四段提到Ngawan骑着摩托车，行驶大约170公里。如果天气晴朗，路上可能要花六个小时，如果雨季来临，他会花3~7天的时间。因为道路泥泞，所以他花了很长的时间在路上，由此可知他的行程艰难。故选A。
6.细节理解题。文章第四段提到“So, whenever he stopped in a particular village, he learned a different language.”，因此可知每当Ngawan在一个特定的村庄停留时，他就会学另一种语言。故选B。
7.推理判断题。文章最后一句提到，当人们不再使用这些语言时，来自该语言的知识和文化也将消失，由此可知语言和文化是密切相关的，故选D。
C
Futurologists are making a lot of predictions about our future life and they are predicting how we will travel, work and live in the next 30 years. By 2048, some futurologists foresee that some “talking” buildings will appear in our life.
By the middle of the century, it's believed that buildings will be able to “talk” to people through various sensors when the heating needs to be turned on. As a result, there will be no switches. Instead, a lot of networks will appear, which can be compared to a human nervous system. In the next 30 years, buildings will be made from concrete plastics and shapechanging materials. All of them can heal themselves at that time. As architects (建筑师) are racing to develop the world's tallest buildings, there will be a need for new kinds of elevators, through which vehicles could even travel into the buildings. German engineers have already started working on such technology called Multi.
By midcentury, scientists believe that buildings will be miles tall. Some of them may be very large and they can function as small cities. By comparison, at present, the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa Tower in Dubai, measures 828 metres high. As the future building can rise through the clouds, their windows will be replaced by virtual screens. In this way, people can choose any view as they like.
At height extremes, a London Spaceport is also likely to come into being by 2048 as the space industry develops very quickly. There is a huge cost advantage going to space from as high a base as possible, so a spaceport is very likely to be over 10 km and even as much as 30 km, using carbonbased materials.
8．How will the heating system be controlled in the future?
A．Through the net. B．Through sensors.
C．Through switches. D．Through mobiles.
9．What might happen to the future buildings in a disaster?
A．They can recover by themselves.
B．They can seek help automatically.
C．They can transport people into space.
D．They can protect people against harm.
10．What's likely to be the advantage of Multi?
A．Seeing the scenes as you please.
B．Allowing vehicles to travel into buildings.
C．Connecting the earth with the space.
D．Making it possible to build high buildings.
11．What does the underlined word “they” (Para.3) most probably refer to?
A．Scientists. B．German engineers.
C．Future buildings. D．Virtual screens.
8~11.BABC
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了未来的建筑是什么样子。
8．答案与解析：B 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“By the middle of the century, it's believed that buildings will be able to ‘talk’ to people through various sensors when the heating needs to be turned on.”可知，未来供热系统通过传感器来控制。
9．答案与解析：A 细节理解题。根据第二段第四、五句“In the next 30 years, buildings will be made from concrete plastics and shapechanging materials. All of them can heal themselves at that time.”可知，未来建筑在灾难中可以自行恢复。
10．答案与解析：B 细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句“As architects are racing to develop the world's tallest buildings, there will be a need for new kinds of elevators, through which vehicles could even travel into the buildings. German engineers have already started working on such technology called Multi.”可知，Multi的优点是能够让车辆在楼房中穿梭。
11．答案与解析：C 词义猜测题。根据“...scientists believe that buildings will be miles tall. Some of them may be very large...”可知，这里的they指的是future buildings。
D
Studies have shown most people fail to realise how much time they spend on their smartphones each day.
Frank and Amelia’s family were put to a test,using a free app called “Moment-screen Time Tracker”.The Vascellaros—Frank,Amelia,14-year-old twins Frankie and Joe,and 17-year-old Sam—all said they did not really know they were spending so much time on their phones each day.
“Honestly,I don’t feel like I’m on my phone a lot,” Amelia Vascellaro said.Amelia was on her phone far less often than Frank,according to the app.While Amelia spent about an hour per day on the phone,Frank spent close to four hours on his phone—which came as a shock to him.The children’s times varied but they often spent more than a couple of hours on the phone as well.
Minneapolis-based Dr Kirsten Lind Seal sees phone usage come up a lot among families.Lind Seal said many family members’ phone use has become problematic.
“If we hear more than once,‘Do you have to be on your phone right now?Can you please put your phone down?Did you hear what I said?’ it may be a sign that it is negatively influencing our family relationships and our daily lives,” she said.
Lind Seal said actually paying attention to how much time one spends on the phone is a good first step in deciding when to put it down.
She asks parents to encourage more face-to-face communication for teens and young adults as they continue developing their social and emotional skills.“What we find is that we are really losing out on empathy—the ability to understand other people’s feelings and problems—when we spend a lot of time on our smartphones to communicate with other people,” she said.
12.How did the families tested by the app feel about the test results?
A.Satisfied. B.Doubtful. C.Uninterested. D.Astonished.
13.Why did Lind Seal mention the three questions in Para.5?
A.To encourage people to live a simple life.
B.To explain the signs of problematic phone use.
C.To show the importance of close relationships.
D.To ask people if they use phones too much.
14.What did Lind Seal want to convey in the last paragraph?
A.We should make more face-to-face communication.
B.We can understand each other better using smartphones.
C.Our ability of empathy is strengthened by smartphones.
D.Smartphone usage improves the teens’ emotional skills.
15.Where is this text most likely from?
A.A diary. B.A guidebook. C.A novel. D.A magazine.
12~15.DBAD
【语篇解读】本文是议论文。通过使用一款应用软件跟踪发现,很多人没有意识到自己每天花费很多时间使用手机。文章建议人们放下手机,应该进行更多的面对面的交流。
12. 答案D 根据第二段中all said they did not really know they were spending so much time on their phones each day.可知,Vascellaro一家对这个测试结果感到惊讶,他们没有想到自己每天花费那么多的时间使用手机。
13. 答案B 由第四段中“LindSealsaidmanyfamilymembers’phoneusehasbecomeproblematic.”可知,LindSeal提出这三个问题是为了说明我们过多使用手机。
14. 答案A根据最后一段中She asks parents to encourage more face-to-face communication for teens and young adults as they continue developing their social and emotional skills. 和引述的话可知,我们应该多进行面对面的交流。
15. 答案D.解析推理判断题。通读全文,本文从一项研究入手,讲述人们对手机的依赖,最后建议人们应该进行更多的面对面的交流,故此篇文章最有可能来自杂志。

Why sensitive kids will make the world a better place
Sensitive children are these special, observant people. They notice when you’re sad, and they ask why. They’re often old souls with big hearts who want to make other people happy. 16 Why?
Because they’re creative. Sensitive kids typically have incredible imaginations. 17 Their creativity shines through in all they do, and ideas just come to them. They show a great appreciation for the arts and they’re inspired by the beauty they find in the world. They notice that tiny little caterpillar(毛虫) crawling on the sidewalk and the puffy (松软洁白的) clouds in the sky.
Because they’re supportive. 18 They believe in people and want to see them do well. They want to make the people they love happy. Sensitive people are often great listeners — they want to know people and understand what they’re thinking and feeling. They want to be there for you when you need them.
19 They can often bring another perspective to the table because they tend to think differently. They’re insightful and reflective — they like to take the time to be alone and spend time with their thoughts. They appreciate calm and quiet moments.
Because they’re strategic. Psychologist Dr. Elaine Aron’s and author of The Highly Sensitive Child says highly sensitive children are. “ 20 ” Our sensitive ones are the leaders.
A. They’re dreamers.
B. Because they’re unique.
C. Because they are emotional.
D. They’re going to do big things in this world.
E. They try to build up those around them, not tear them down.
F. They want to celebrate with them if they’re happy and excited.
G. Quick to grasp subtle changes and generally behave conscientiously.
16-20 DAEBG
【解析】
16.本文介绍了性格敏感的孩子们的一些优点，这些优点必然会有助于他们做出一些与众不同的事情。后文Why引出具体原因，故选D。
17.前文提到这些孩子有着惊人的想象力，这正好和A项中的dreamers表达的是相同的含义。故选A。
18.本段主要介绍的是敏感的孩子会给别人支持，故选E。
19.本段首句中提到敏感的孩子往往会有不同的视角，与他人想法不同，因此说他们与众不同，是独特的。故选B。
20.根据本段首句可知，此处应是介绍敏感的孩子更具有策略性，而G项中的“能够抓住细微变化，认真负责”可以体现出这一点。故选G。

I was taking a nap(小睡) when a loud noise woke me. Outside the window in a parking lot, a car had just 21 into a chain-link fence. The fence bent out in exactly the 22 of the car's back end.
A short man wearing a shirt unbuttoned to 23 his chest got out of the car, with a shaven head. I disliked him 24 . After a few seconds of 25 the damage, the man tried to 26 that.

27. 上文提到围栏被撞了，故此处表示毁坏的围栏。fixed"固定的"；ruined"毁坏的，严重受损的"；stable"牢固的，稳定的"； noticeable"显著的，显而易见的"。
28. 作者看到这位自己不喜欢的男子受挫，不由幸灾乐祸，心中暗喜。下文的"I laughed out loud this time"也是解题提示。 deliberately"故意，蓄意"；silently"无声地，默默地"。此处cheering 是现在分词作伴随状语。

36.根据最后一句的"and how I can make myself more like him"可知，作者意识到男子实际上是他的一个榜样。victim"受害者"； model"模范，典型"。
37.结合上文内容可知，作者认为自己的猜测很肤浅。shallow"肤浅的，浅薄的"；primary"主要的，最重要的，基本的"；unusual"不寻常的"；uncaring"冷漠的，无同情心的"。

41．highly 考查副词。high作副词指具体的高，此处应用指抽象的高的副词highly修饰其后的形容词successful。
42．and 考查连词。分析句子结构可知此处为顺承关系，故应用and连接两个并列的动词短语。
43．awoke 考查动词时态。本段的谓语动词均使用了一般过去时，故此处需要用相对应的一般过去时。
44．impossible 考查词性转化。此处是说你不能那样做，那是不可能的，故此处用impossible。
45．achieving 考查动名词。on one's way to这一固定搭配中的to为介词，其后接动词ing形式作宾语。
46．of 考查介词。此处表示就像美国第28届总统伍德罗·威尔逊所说，“梦想成就伟大”。用介词of表示所属关系。
47．dreamers 考查名词复数。主语men和谓语are均暗示出其表语为名词复数dreamers。
48．others 考查代词。此处为固定结构some…others…“一些人……其他人……”。
49．until/till 考查从属连词。until/till引导时间状语从句。

参考答案:
Dear John,
I am so sorry that I missed our appointment to play tennis last Saturday afternoon.
It must have been very upsetting for you to make every effort to get to the stadium on time, only to find that I failed to arrive. Unfortunately, my sister was involved in a car accident, and everything else simply slipped my mind.
Would you prefer to reschedule next time you are in China, or simply speak on the phone? I look forwards to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,

Two weeks ago, I had an amazing trip to my friend’s house in Serawai. Serawai is the name of a sub-district in Sintang Regency, Indonesia.
At that time, I was warmly welcomed by peaceful green yard. My trip was full of unforgettable moments: great people, delicious food, and new cultures. However, what left a remarkable impression on me was meeting up with my friend’s dad, Fx. Ngawan. He is now working as an education supervisor in Sintang Regency.
At our first encounter, he looked like a typical Dayaknese man with dark skin. As he mentioned that he used to be an English teacher, we discovered we were a match! I am an English teacher myself. More importantly, he is a language enthusiast and a hyperpolyglot(超级多语者). During the talk, we often switched from one language to the other such as Indonesian, English, Javanese to Ahe. He is now fluent in at least 15 languages and most of them are local languages.
When he was assigned to be a teacher and education supervisor, he had to go all the way from Serawai sub-district to Sintang Regency by motorcycle, riding about 170km by motorcycle. The trip could take six hours if the day was bright and sunny. However, it was not uncommon for him to spend three to seven days for the journey if the raining season came. Therefore, he had to stop at some villages if he couldn’t continue the trip and meet up with people with so many different languages along the way. So, whenever he stopped in a particular village, he learned a different language. For him, learning languages helped him to connect with people.
In our last talk, he highlighted the importance of learning languages. He hopes that the younger generation in Indonesiastart realizing that language is the gate to open up so many opportunities. Local languages are on the brink of disappearance because more people are leaving it behind. When people stop speaking the languages, the knowledge and culture from that language will also disappear.
4. Which of the following impressed the author most?
A. Peaceful green yard. B. Delicious food.
C. Great people. D. Fx. Ngawan.
5. How was Ngawan’s motorcycle trip?
A. Difficult. B. Instructive. C. Exciting. D. Interesting.
6. What benefit did Ngawan get in his long trip?
A. He got enough rest. B. He learned some languages.
C. He did much exercise. D. He made many friends.
7. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Learning languages isn’t an easy job.
B. Young people don’t grasp opportunities.
C. Local languages are being more important.
D. Languages and culture are closely related.
4-7 DABD
【解析】
4.细节理解题。文章第二段第三句提到“However, what left a remarkable impression on me was meeting up with my friend’s dad, Fx. Ngawan.”可知，给作者留下深刻印象的是与作者朋友的父亲Ngawan的见面，故选D。
5.推理判断题。文章第四段提到Ngawan骑着摩托车，行驶大约170公里。如果天气晴朗，路上可能要花六个小时，如果雨季来临，他会花3~7天的时间。因为道路泥泞，所以他花了很长的时间在路上，由此可知他的行程艰难。故选A。
6.细节理解题。文章第四段提到“So, whenever he stopped in a particular village, he learned a different language.”，因此可知每当Ngawan在一个特定的村庄停留时，他就会学另一种语言。故选B。

Futurologists are making a lot of predictions about our future life and they are predicting how we will travel, work and live in the next 30 years. By 2048, some futurologists foresee that some “talking” buildings will appear in our life.
By the middle of the century, it's believed that buildings will be able to “talk” to people through various sensors when the heating needs to be turned on. As a result, there will be no switches. Instead, a lot of networks will appear, which can be compared to a human nervous system. In the next 30 years, buildings will be made from concrete plastics and shapechanging materials. All of them can heal themselves at that time. As architects (建筑师) are racing to develop the world's tallest buildings, there will be a need for new kinds of elevators, through which vehicles could even travel into the buildings. German engineers have already started working on such technology called Multi.
By midcentury, scientists believe that buildings will be miles tall. Some of them may be very large and they can function as small cities. By comparison, at present, the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa Tower in Dubai, measures 828 metres high. As the future building can rise through the clouds, their windows will be replaced by virtual screens. In this way, people can choose any view as they like.
At height extremes, a London Spaceport is also likely to come into being by 2048 as the space industry develops very quickly. There is a huge cost advantage going to space from as high a base as possible, so a spaceport is very likely to be over 10 km and even as much as 30 km, using carbonbased materials.
8．How will the heating system be controlled in the future?
A．Through the net. B．Through sensors.
C．Through switches. D．Through mobiles.
9．What might happen to the future buildings in a disaster?
A．They can recover by themselves.
B．They can seek help automatically.
C．They can transport people into space.
D．They can protect people against harm.
10．What's likely to be the advantage of Multi?
A．Seeing the scenes as you please.
B．Allowing vehicles to travel into buildings.
C．Connecting the earth with the space.
D．Making it possible to build high buildings.
11．What does the underlined word “they” (Para.3) most probably refer to?
A．Scientists. B．German engineers.
C．Future buildings. D．Virtual screens.
8~11.BABC
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了未来的建筑是什么样子。
8．答案与解析：B 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“By the middle of the century, it's believed that buildings will be able to ‘talk’ to people through various sensors when the heating needs to be turned on.”可知，未来供热系统通过传感器来控制。
9．答案与解析：A 细节理解题。根据第二段第四、五句“In the next 30 years, buildings will be made from concrete plastics and shapechanging materials. All of them can heal themselves at that time.”可知，未来建筑在灾难中可以自行恢复。
10．答案与解析：B 细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句“As architects are racing to develop the world's tallest buildings, there will be a need for new kinds of elevators, through which vehicles could even travel into the buildings. German engineers have already started working on such technology called Multi.”可知，Multi的优点是能够让车辆在楼房中穿梭。
11．答案与解析：C 词义猜测题。根据“...scientists believe that buildings will be miles tall. Some of them may be very large...”可知，这里的they指的是future buildings。
D
Studies have shown most people fail to realise how much time they spend on their smartphones each day.
Frank and Amelia’s family were put to a test,using a free app called “Moment-screen Time Tracker”.The Vascellaros—Frank,Amelia,14-year-old twins Frankie and Joe,and 17-year-old Sam—all said they did not really know they were spending so much time on their phones each day.
“Honestly,I don’t feel like I’m on my phone a lot,” Amelia Vascellaro said.Amelia was on her phone far less often than Frank,according to the app.While Amelia spent about an hour per day on the phone,Frank spent close to four hours on his phone—which came as a shock to him.The children’s times varied but they often spent more than a couple of hours on the phone as well.
Minneapolis-based Dr Kirsten Lind Seal sees phone usage come up a lot among families.Lind Seal said many family members’ phone use has become problematic.
“If we hear more than once,‘Do you have to be on your phone right now?Can you please put your phone down?Did you hear what I said?’ it may be a sign that it is negatively influencing our family relationships and our daily lives,” she said.
Lind Seal said actually paying attention to how much time one spends on the phone is a good first step in deciding when to put it down.
She asks parents to encourage more face-to-face communication for teens and young adults as they continue developing their social and emotional skills.“What we find is that we are really losing out on empathy—the ability to understand other people’s feelings and problems—when we spend a lot of time on our smartphones to communicate with other people,” she said.
12.How did the families tested by the app feel about the test results?
A.Satisfied. B.Doubtful. C.Uninterested. D.Astonished.
13.Why did Lind Seal mention the three questions in Para.5?
A.To encourage people to live a simple life.
B.To explain the signs of problematic phone use.
C.To show the importance of close relationships.
D.To ask people if they use phones too much.
14.What did Lind Seal want to convey in the last paragraph?
A.We should make more face-to-face communication.
B.We can understand each other better using smartphones.
C.Our ability of empathy is strengthened by smartphones.
D.Smartphone usage improves the teens’ emotional skills.
15.Where is this text most likely from?
A.A diary. B.A guidebook. C.A novel. D.A magazine.
12~15.DBAD
【语篇解读】本文是议论文。通过使用一款应用软件跟踪发现,很多人没有意识到自己每天花费很多时间使用手机。文章建议人们放下手机,应该进行更多的面对面的交流。
12. 答案D 根据第二段中all said they did not really know they were spending so much time on their phones each day.可知,Vascellaro一家对这个测试结果感到惊讶,他们没有想到自己每天花费那么多的时间使用手机。
13. 答案B 由第四段中“LindSealsaidmanyfamilymembers’phoneusehasbecomeproblematic.”可知,LindSeal提出这三个问题是为了说明我们过多使用手机。
14. 答案A根据最后一段中She asks parents to encourage more face-to-face communication for teens and young adults as they continue developing their social and emotional skills. 和引述的话可知,我们应该多进行面对面的交流。
15. 答案D.解析推理判断题。通读全文,本文从一项研究入手,讲述人们对手机的依赖,最后建议人们应该进行更多的面对面的交流,故此篇文章最有可能来自杂志。

Why sensitive kids will make the world a better place
Sensitive children are these special, observant people. They notice when you’re sad, and they ask why. They’re often old souls with big hearts who want to make other people happy. 16 Why?
Because they’re creative. Sensitive kids typically have incredible imaginations. 17 Their creativity shines through in all they do, and ideas just come to them. They show a great appreciation for the arts and they’re inspired by the beauty they find in the world. They notice that tiny little caterpillar(毛虫) crawling on the sidewalk and the puffy (松软洁白的) clouds in the sky.
Because they’re supportive. 18 They believe in people and want to see them do well. They want to make the people they love happy. Sensitive people are often great listeners — they want to know people and understand what they’re thinking and feeling. They want to be there for you when you need them.
19 They can often bring another perspective to the table because they tend to think differently. They’re insightful and reflective — they like to take the time to be alone and spend time with their thoughts. They appreciate calm and quiet moments.
Because they’re strategic. Psychologist Dr. Elaine Aron’s and author of The Highly Sensitive Child says highly sensitive children are. “ 20 ” Our sensitive ones are the leaders.
A. They’re dreamers.
B. Because they’re unique.
C. Because they are emotional.
D. They’re going to do big things in this world.
E. They try to build up those around them, not tear them down.
F. They want to celebrate with them if they’re happy and excited.
G. Quick to grasp subtle changes and generally behave conscientiously.
16-20 DAEBG

18.本段主要介绍的是敏感的孩子会给别人支持，故选E。
19.本段首句中提到敏感的孩子往往会有不同的视角，与他人想法不同，因此说他们与众不同，是独特的。故选B。
20.根据本段首句可知，此处应是介绍敏感的孩子更具有策略性，而G项中的“能够抓住细微变化，认真负责”可以体现出这一点。故选G。
