M：Well，I’ll drop her off at your place on the way to work around 11：00.But if it snows，I’ll give you a call and see if we can find something else to do.
第二部分 阅读(共两节， 满分50分)
第一节 (共15小题；每小题2.5分， 满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文， 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
More than two thirds of the world’s polar bears will be wiped out by 2050，according to a shocking new study.By then，scientists say，global warming will have melted 42 percent of the Arctic sea ice.By 2100，only a very few of these important creatures will be left.
The report has been produced by the US Geological Survey.The scientists have publicized their findings in the hope of influencing US Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne，who has been asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.
Polar bears depend on floating sea ice as a platform for hunting seals，which are their main food.Without enough ice，polar bears would be forced to go onto the land，where they are poorly skilled hunters，and would be unlikely to adapt to the life on the land in time.Experts say few little bears would survive and the stress could make many females unable to get pregnant.
The team of American and Canadian scientists spent six months studying bears：on the ground，from spotter planes and in the lab，using computer models.Some team members fear the result is even worse for the bears than what their report says.They say the Arctic is warming faster than anywhere in the world and much faster than their computer has been forecasting.Satellite observations have showed that the ice has decreased to an alltime low.
However，not everyone in the scientific community believes that global warming is happening on such an alarming scale.Another investigation has found that polar bears are still being hunted by wealthy “sportsmen” who want their skins and heads.At least ten international companies offer bearhunting trips.
语篇解读 本文通过北极变暖导致北极熊数量急剧减少的例子来呼吁人们关注全球变暖，同时提高对濒危动物的保护意识。
21．What do we know about Dirk Kempthorne according to the passage?
A．He is an animal scientist.
B．He is a protector of animals working for the US government.
C．He has been asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.

22．Why will polar bears die out if there is not enough sea ice?
A．Because polar bears can’t catch enough food without ice.
B．Because polar bears eat ice when they feel thirsty.
C．Because polar bears will be easily found by hunters without ice.
D．Because most female bears are used to giving birth under ice.
答案 A
解析 推理判断题。由第三段第一句“Polar bears depend on floating sea ice as a platform for hunting seals，which are their main food.”可知A项正确。
23．After a sixmonth study，some scientists fear that .
A．there is something wrong with their computers
B．polar bears will disappear even faster than they have ever expected
C．their computer models are not as accurate as they expected

There has been a lot of publicity recently surrounding 5G，the next generation of wireless technology for the world.But what is this technology and how might it change our lives?
5G stands for fifth generation，meaning the next step in the progression of technology to replace the current 4G system.4G was the replacement for 3G，which came after 2G，and so on.Earlier “G” systems were designed to improve mobile communication operations.Each new technology brought major improvements in speed and greatly increased network capacity(容量)．The new 5G system promises more of the same.However，technology experts say there is a major way that 5G is different than the earlier systems.It will move well beyond mobile network technology to affect many more devices and industries than other “G” versions.
Wireless industry groups say 5G will help fuel future “smart cities” by connecting sensor(传感器) networks.5G is also expected to connect selfdriving cars and support new technologies involving virtual reality.Higher 5G speeds could also permit doctors to commonly perform remote medical operations.Factories and businesses could use 5G technology to increase automation and improve the collection of information.
Every coin has two sides.Much of the data could contain private details about individuals，businesses or government organizations.The increased data flow would give Internet attackers a lot more possibilities to steal and misuse data.In addition，the wider use of a 5G wireless network means any breakdown of the system would have more widespread and severe results.Such difficulties could affect public safety as well as world economic activity.
24．What is the significant difference between 5G and the early “G” systems?
A．It will affect more devices and industries.
B．It will change the way people communicate.
C．It will reform the pattern of information system.
D．It will improve Internet speed and network capacity.
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后两句可知，技术专家说，有一个主要的方式，5G不同于早期系统。相比其他“G”版本，它将远远超越移动网络技术，影响更多的设备和行业。故选A。
25．What can we learn about “smart cities” from the passage?
A．Smart cities are cities full of intelligent people.
B．Now many smart cities have been built all over the world.
C．As long as there are wireless networks，you can build smart cities.
D．The development of 5G accelerates the construction of smart cities.
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“Wireless industry groups say 5G will help fuel future ‘smart cities’ by connecting sensor(传感器) networks.”可推断，5G技术的发展加速了智能城市的建设。故选D。
26．Why can 5G allow doctors to perform longrange medical operations?
A．Because of the low cost of 5G.
B．Because of the wide range of 5G.
C．Because of the high speed of 5G.
D．Because of the ability of 5G to collect information.
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“Higher 5G speeds could also permit doctors to commonly perform remote medical operations.”可知，较高的5G速度也可以允许医生进行远程医疗操作普遍化。故选C。
27．What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A．Possible risks of 5G technology.
B．The advantages of 5G technology.
C．The influence of 5G technology on the world.
D．The importance of information security in the 5G era.
答案 A
解析 段落大意题。根据本段中的“Every coin has two sides.”可知，任何事物都有两面性；联系上一段讲述的5G的优势可推断，本段讲述的应为5G可能存在的风险。故选A。
C
Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have.Imagine how the Italian traveler Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese soil，seeing a way of life quite different from what he’d seen before.And how marvelous(了不起的) it must have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia！His brain must have been packed with everything he’d seen and heard，leading to the founding of the Silk Road.
Some people have traveled all over the world，and travel is a way of life for them.They perhaps know what to expect before they travel.That’s why the best travel is the first one.Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the United States.Of course，he has probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on TV，and the White House，and all the other famous sights.But nothing would compare to the thrill of looking out of the cabin window(舷窗) as the plane lands，watching the buildings and streets of the real America come into view.
Although travel is often just for recreation，it’s also educational.We may not know that we are getting an education，but we still are.
We’re learning every day：new words in a new language，new people，and new ways of life.But this learning takes place in the school of the world，not the classroom.One of the lessons we learn is undoubtedly a moral one.As we get to know foreign places，we come to understand that there are many different ways to live，and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best.The British politician Benjamin Disraeli summed this up well when he said，“Travel teaches toleration.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了旅行是最令人兴奋的体验之一。旅行不只是为了娱乐，还有教育意义。
28．The author uses Marco Polo and Zhang Qian as examples to .
A．explain how the Silk Road was founded
B．present travel as an amazing experience
C．show how the way people travel has changed
D．describe important cultural exchanges in history
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have.”可知，作者举马可·波罗和张骞的例子就是为了证明旅行是一种令人兴奋的体验。
29．By saying “the best travel is the first one” in Paragraph 2，the author means that .
A．one’s first trip is usually the most challenging
B．no other trip is better than one’s first trip
C．there is always much to learn on one’s first trip
D．people usually make better preparations for their first trip
答案 B
解析 句意理解题。根据第二段最后两句可知，作者这么说想表达的是第一次旅行是最好的。
30．The underlined word “recreation”in Paragraph 3 probably means “ ”．
A．learning B．knowledge
C．fun D．risk
答案 C
解析 词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“it’s also educational”以及上下文语境可知，此处表示旅行不只是为了娱乐，还有教育意义，故画线词词义为“娱乐”，与fun同义。
31．According to the last two paragraphs，the author believes that .
A．traveling should be included in formal education
B．traveling improves people’s confidence in their lifestyle
C．a foreign journey may raise people’s cultural understanding
D．there is more to learn from adventures than classes
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“We’re learning every day：new words in a new language，new people，and new ways of life.But this learning takes place in the school of the world，not the classroom.”可知，作者认为国外旅行会提高人们对文化的理解。
D
One day in March，seven years ago，during happy hour at a bar in my hometown of Fayetteville，Arkansas，I made a surprising announcement to my friends：I was going to shut down my law practice and attempt to travel around the globe in a year.What’s more，I would do it without taking any flights or making a single advance reservation of any kind.My announcement drew mixed reactions from my friends.Some offered support and encouragement，while others were more doubtful.
Once I had said the words，there was no turning back.It took months to shut down my law practice and get things in order.Once I set off on my adventure in December 2008，I found travelling without using planes was not easy.Trying to circle the globe in 16 months (it took me a bit longer than the initial 12 months I planned) made it even harder.Even so，travelling overland was the most amazing way to truly understand the immensity(浩瀚无际) of our wonderful planet.
I took three consecutive(连续的) overnight buses to travel 3,000 km through Argentina，from Ushuaia to the capital Buenos Aires.I would look out of the windows for hours on end at the completely unspoiled plains，as if humans had never touched it.
It took seven consecutive days and nights on trains to get from Moscow to Beijing，each day spent staring out of the windows for hours as the Siberian plains swept by.Sometimes，I wouldn’t see a village or a human being for 10 hours.Later in my journey，it took 22 days on a cargo freighter(货船) to get from New Zealand through the Panama Canal and back to Philadelphia，to finish my roundtheworld adventure.
It turned out that travelling with no reservations was far less difficult than I had imagined.Pulling into a city on a bus with a backpack，looking in a guidebook for a few suggestions of accommodations(住所)，and then finding an empty room was never much of a problem anywhere.It also kept me flexible(灵活) and open about all my travel plans，which is advice I give everyone who asks—plan far less than you think you should.
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。作者打算将律师工作停工一年去环游世界。沿途中他不坐飞机，也不预先做任何预订，历时16个月完成了他的环球之旅。
32．The author’s trip was special in that .
A．he made it at the expense of giving up his job
B．it hardly cost him anything
C．he did not make advance booking or travel by air
D．it was a global trip
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“...I would do it without taking any flights or making a single advance reservation of any kind.”及第二段中的“...I found travelling without using planes was not easy.”可知，作者这次旅行的特别之处在于旅行中不乘坐飞机也不事先做任何预订。
33．The author most probably returned to the United States in .
A．June 2009 B．December 2009
C．February 2010 D．April 2010
答案 D
解析 数字计算题。根据第二段可知，作者于2008年12月开始他的环球旅行，历时16个月，即可推断其结束旅行的时间大概在2010年4月。
34．The author’s travelling route was .
①Moscow ②Philadelphia ③New Zealand
④Ushuaia ⑤Beijing ⑥Buenos Aires
A．⑤④①⑥③② B．④⑥①⑤③②
C．④⑤①⑥③② D．⑤①⑥④③②
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“I took three consecutive(连续的) overnight buses to travel 3,000 km through Argentina，from Ushuaia to the capital Buenos Aires.”和第四段中的“It took seven consecutive days and nights on trains to get from Moscow to Beijing”以及“Later in my journey，it took 22 days on a cargo freighter(货船) to get from New Zealand through the Panama Canal and back to Philadelphia”可确定其旅行路线应为B项。
35．What did the author think of his aroundtheworld tour?
A．Challenging but pleasant.
B．Dangerous but wonderful.
C．Boring and disappointing.
D．Costly and painful.
答案 A
解析 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“...I found travelling without using planes was not easy.”可知，环球旅行具有挑战性；再根据第三段所描述的沿途中看到的景色可知，这种经历也很美好，令人感到愉快，故选A项。
第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分， 满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文， 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A travel blog produces interest in people for visiting the new places. 36 A blog owner might identify a place, such as travel locations within a small region of a country, or broaden the scope to include countries across the globe.Writing a travel blog requires recording notes and observations, taking pictures and talking to local people while traveling.Here are a few tips for writing a travel blog.
First of all, you must visit various places so that you can teach your visitors about these locations.Visitors of your site want an eyecatching text such that they feel as if they are at the place you’re describing.
37 Protect the reliability of your travel blog by proving all facts.Write down directions as you travel to various locations so that you can provide accurate information to readers.Provide the correct spelling of towns, people, restaurants and streets.Call phone numbers and visit website links before publishing to verify accuracy.
38 As you travel, write down your impressions.After a memorable dining experience, for example, write down the name of the restaurant, the dish you ordered, its ingredients and the details of the decor and music.
You must add people’s interview during the journey. 39 The scent of rare flowers，the beautiful view from a mountain top，the feel of soft towels in a highend hotel，and the sound of a waterfall are examples of descriptions that help people to connect immediately with a place or experience.
Take pictures.To help people see things with their own eyes, take pictures of all locations about which you wish to write.Local cuisines, landmarks, traditional clothing and scenic locations are possible examples. 40
Respond to readers’ comments.Blogs typically allow you to accept or disable comments.Allowing comments is an opportunity to build rapport with readers and answer questions.
A．Keep a travel journal.
B．Record events on videos.
C．Provide correct facts.
D．Ask for submissions from other travelers.
E．Visiting gives mental satisfaction to all people.
F．Use the senses when writing about locations.
G．Take photos, posting the clearest and most bright pictures.
36．答案 E
解析 空格前面“A travel blog produces interest in people for visiting the new places.”中的interest与E选项中的mental satisfaction呼应。
37．答案 C
解析 结合空格后面的“Protect the reliability of your travel blog by proving all facts.”可知，旅行博客要准确可靠，故选C。
38．答案 A
解析 根据空格后面“As you travel, write down your impressions.”中的“write down(记录)”可知，A选项“记录旅行日记”切题。
39．答案 F
解析 结合空格后面的“The scent of rare flowers, the beautiful view from a mountain top, the feel of soft towels...”可知，F项“写地点的时候运用感官”切题。scent，view，feel，sound与F项中的senses呼应。
40．答案 G
解析 根据本段的主题句“Take pictures.”可知选G。

解析 结合前文可知，猫的主人以为它会成为狼的牺牲品，此处指并不是每一只消失的猫都会遭遇不好的处境，meet a bad end意为“有一个不好的结局”，符合语境。
47．A.bite B．live
C．sleep D．jump
答案 D
解析 根据文意及常识可知，这里是说猫跳上火车或卡车并不稀奇。
48．A.actually B．rarely
C．normally D．hopefully
答案 B
解析 根据前文的“It’s very common ...but ...”可知，此处是说一只猫穿越1 200英里后回到主人身边并不常见。rarely罕有，很少。
49．A.clearing B．blocking
C．wandering D．checking
答案 C
解析 根据文意可知，这只猫被发现时正在街上游荡。wander闲逛。
50．A.thrilled B．unlucky
C．missing D．crazy
答案 C
解析 thrilled激动的；unlucky不幸的；missing丢失的；crazy疯狂的。根据前文的reunites和后文的pets可知，这个动物收容所每天都会让很多家庭和其丢失的宠物重聚。
51．A.and B．but
C．because D．though
答案 B
解析 根据后文的“this is the first time...”和前文的“...every day”可推知，此处为转折关系。
52．A.return B．illness
C．disappearance D．movement
答案 A
解析 return返回；illness疾病；disappearance消失；movement运动。根据文意可知，这只猫成功回到主人身边多亏了其体内植入了微芯片。
53．A.technology B．civilization
C．identification D．explanation
答案 C
解析 technology技术；civilization文明；identification身份证明；explanation解释。根据前文的“would not have been possible ...microchipped”可知，此处意为微芯片是最好的身份证明形式。
54．A.download B．record
C．copy D．update
答案 D
解析 download下载；record记录；copy复制；update更新。根据文意可知，仅仅安装芯片还不够，还需要及时更新信息。
55．A.fact B．number
C．name D．change
答案 D
解析 根据文意及后文的“contact information”可知，此处意为如果联系方式发生了变化，需要及时更新信息。

语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了去年暑假，作者和家人一起去游览故宫博物院的经历。
56．答案 largest
解析 考查形容词最高级。句意为：故宫博物院被称为紫禁城，它是现在中国最大的，保存最好的皇帝住所。根据空前the及空后most well可知，此处用形容词最高级。故填largest。
57．答案 reserved
解析 考查非谓语动词。reserve与其逻辑主语The Palace Museum之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词。故填reserved。
58．答案 width
解析 考查名词。in width“宽度上”，是固定短语。故填width。
59．答案 was rebuilt
解析 考查时态和语态。“它”和“重建”之间是被动关系，所以用被动语态；表示发生在过去的事情，用一般过去时，综上所述，用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was rebuilt。
60．答案 with
解析 考查介词。句意为：去年暑假，我和我的家人一起去参观故宫博物院，我非常激动。表示“和……一起”，用介词with。故填with。
61．答案 It
解析 考查it作形式主语。不定式to build the Forbidden City是真正的主语，句首需要一个形式主语。故填It。
62．答案 really
解析 考查副词。修饰形容词surprised应用副词。故填really。
63．答案 that
解析 考查固定句型。句意为：工匠们建造得如此好，以至于今天看起来都不过时。此处是固定句型：so...that“如此……以至于……”。故填that。
64．答案 photos
解析 考查名词复数。被hundreds of修饰，所以用名词复数。故填photos。
65．答案 amazing
解析 考查形容词。amazing“令人惊奇的”常修饰物，amazed“感到惊奇的”常修饰人；这里修饰trip，所以用amazing。故填amazing。

Dear Peter，
I’m writing to suggest a popular holiday destination—beautiful Colorado.
There are rushing rivers and great valleys.The forests there are home to many kinds of trees and animals.Besides，it’s cheap and convenient for us to get there by bus.It takes about 2 hours.
We can camp in national parks in our tents.We can also have a picnic along the river.Best of all, there is something for everybody to do in Colorado.We can fish in streams; we can go hiking; we can wander around the park taking photos or just sit somewhere and paint pictures.
Don’t you think Colorado would be great?
Yours，

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语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was the hottest time of the year in southern California.Steve，a star basketball player at the University of California，with his cousin Zach，had planned a camping trip in the Great National Forest for their summer vacation.
The boys gathered clothes and supplies，and began their great adventure with Brady the dog early in the morning.Upon arrival，Steve pulled over to the side of the road along the bank of the river.“A wonderful place for fishing，” Steve exclaimed in delight.Zach nodded in agreement.
At high noon，the sun was scorching hot.With a good harvest of fish，the boys marched into the forest with Brady following them.After a long walk，they found a clearing that was ideal for a campsite.The camp was set up immediately as Steve knew all the tricks of an experienced wilderness camper.
An afternoon nap was absolutely a special treat in midsummer.However，the boys were waken up by the fierce barks of Brady.Outside，heavy smoke filled the air and windblown flame was skipping from the top of one tree to another.The long dry summer turned the forest into a tinderbox.In a little while，Steve and Zach were inside their tent packing their belongings.
“Let’s go! We can make it back to the river！” They headed down against the firewind in the direction of the river.But Brady barked a sharp warning.Ahead of them lay a thick curtain of smoke across the track.They would never make it through that.Steve was uneasy for it was hard to find a safe way to escape in the heavy smoke.
Brady lifted his head and snuffed(嗅) the smokeladen wind.Next moment，the dog bounded away and disappeared down a sharp slope(坡)．The boys shouted for him，but he didn’t come back.Steve couldn’t blame Brady for panicking.He himself wanted to run even though he didn’t know where to run.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
Steve and Zach hadn’t gone far when there was a familiar bark.
Brady pulled again，in spite of the boy’s disbelief，urgently.
参考范文
Steve and Zach hadn’t gone far when there was a familiar bark.Brady came bounding，stopped directly in front of Steve and hit him with his head，pushing him back toward the slope.But Steve didn’t get it.Then Brady grabbed the boy’s jeans and started pulling.The message was clear，but Steve hesitated.Of course he remembered Brady saving his uncle’s life when the dog was much younger.Was he still sharp enough to get them through this?
Brady pulled again，in spite of the boy’s disbelief，urgently.“OK，big guy，” seeing the fire was touching underbrush nearby，Steve made up his mind.Brady led them back down the slope and into the trees.Several times the big dog stopped.Often he changed directions to find the right way.The boys were so tired but the dog bullied both boys to go on.Steve was almost numb when he heard it—the wonderful sound of rushing water! They made it back to the river.

第二部分 阅读(共两节， 满分50分)
第一节 (共15小题；每小题2.5分， 满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文， 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
More than two thirds of the world’s polar bears will be wiped out by 2050，according to a shocking new study.By then，scientists say，global warming will have melted 42 percent of the Arctic sea ice.By 2100，only a very few of these important creatures will be left.
The report has been produced by the US Geological Survey.The scientists have publicized their findings in the hope of influencing US Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne，who has been asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.
Polar bears depend on floating sea ice as a platform for hunting seals，which are their main food.Without enough ice，polar bears would be forced to go onto the land，where they are poorly skilled hunters，and would be unlikely to adapt to the life on the land in time.Experts say few little bears would survive and the stress could make many females unable to get pregnant.
The team of American and Canadian scientists spent six months studying bears：on the ground，from spotter planes and in the lab，using computer models.Some team members fear the result is even worse for the bears than what their report says.They say the Arctic is warming faster than anywhere in the world and much faster than their computer has been forecasting.Satellite observations have showed that the ice has decreased to an alltime low.
However，not everyone in the scientific community believes that global warming is happening on such an alarming scale.Another investigation has found that polar bears are still being hunted by wealthy “sportsmen” who want their skins and heads.At least ten international companies offer bearhunting trips.
语篇解读 本文通过北极变暖导致北极熊数量急剧减少的例子来呼吁人们关注全球变暖，同时提高对濒危动物的保护意识。
21．What do we know about Dirk Kempthorne according to the passage?
A．He is an animal scientist.
B．He is a protector of animals working for the US government.
C．He has been asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.
D．He has offered to put polar bears on the endangered species list.

22．Why will polar bears die out if there is not enough sea ice?
A．Because polar bears can’t catch enough food without ice.
B．Because polar bears eat ice when they feel thirsty.
C．Because polar bears will be easily found by hunters without ice.
D．Because most female bears are used to giving birth under ice.
答案 A
解析 推理判断题。由第三段第一句“Polar bears depend on floating sea ice as a platform for hunting seals，which are their main food.”可知A项正确。
23．After a sixmonth study，some scientists fear that .
A．there is something wrong with their computers
B．polar bears will disappear even faster than they have ever expected
C．their computer models are not as accurate as they expected
D．global warming will destroy everything in the Arctic

B
There has been a lot of publicity recently surrounding 5G，the next generation of wireless technology for the world.But what is this technology and how might it change our lives?
5G stands for fifth generation，meaning the next step in the progression of technology to replace the current 4G system.4G was the replacement for 3G，which came after 2G，and so on.Earlier “G” systems were designed to improve mobile communication operations.Each new technology brought major improvements in speed and greatly increased network capacity(容量)．The new 5G system promises more of the same.However，technology experts say there is a major way that 5G is different than the earlier systems.It will move well beyond mobile network technology to affect many more devices and industries than other “G” versions.
Wireless industry groups say 5G will help fuel future “smart cities” by connecting sensor(传感器) networks.5G is also expected to connect selfdriving cars and support new technologies involving virtual reality.Higher 5G speeds could also permit doctors to commonly perform remote medical operations.Factories and businesses could use 5G technology to increase automation and improve the collection of information.
Every coin has two sides.Much of the data could contain private details about individuals，businesses or government organizations.The increased data flow would give Internet attackers a lot more possibilities to steal and misuse data.In addition，the wider use of a 5G wireless network means any breakdown of the system would have more widespread and severe results.Such difficulties could affect public safety as well as world economic activity.
24．What is the significant difference between 5G and the early “G” systems?
A．It will affect more devices and industries.
B．It will change the way people communicate.
C．It will reform the pattern of information system.
D．It will improve Internet speed and network capacity.
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后两句可知，技术专家说，有一个主要的方式，5G不同于早期系统。相比其他“G”版本，它将远远超越移动网络技术，影响更多的设备和行业。故选A。
25．What can we learn about “smart cities” from the passage?
A．Smart cities are cities full of intelligent people.
B．Now many smart cities have been built all over the world.
C．As long as there are wireless networks，you can build smart cities.
D．The development of 5G accelerates the construction of smart cities.
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“Wireless industry groups say 5G will help fuel future ‘smart cities’ by connecting sensor(传感器) networks.”可推断，5G技术的发展加速了智能城市的建设。故选D。
26．Why can 5G allow doctors to perform longrange medical operations?
A．Because of the low cost of 5G.
B．Because of the wide range of 5G.
C．Because of the high speed of 5G.
D．Because of the ability of 5G to collect information.
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“Higher 5G speeds could also permit doctors to commonly perform remote medical operations.”可知，较高的5G速度也可以允许医生进行远程医疗操作普遍化。故选C。
27．What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A．Possible risks of 5G technology.
B．The advantages of 5G technology.
C．The influence of 5G technology on the world.
D．The importance of information security in the 5G era.
答案 A
解析 段落大意题。根据本段中的“Every coin has two sides.”可知，任何事物都有两面性；联系上一段讲述的5G的优势可推断，本段讲述的应为5G可能存在的风险。故选A。
C
Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have.Imagine how the Italian traveler Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese soil，seeing a way of life quite different from what he’d seen before.And how marvelous(了不起的) it must have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia！His brain must have been packed with everything he’d seen and heard，leading to the founding of the Silk Road.
Some people have traveled all over the world，and travel is a way of life for them.They perhaps know what to expect before they travel.That’s why the best travel is the first one.Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the United States.Of course，he has probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on TV，and the White House，and all the other famous sights.But nothing would compare to the thrill of looking out of the cabin window(舷窗) as the plane lands，watching the buildings and streets of the real America come into view.
Although travel is often just for recreation，it’s also educational.We may not know that we are getting an education，but we still are.
We’re learning every day：new words in a new language，new people，and new ways of life.But this learning takes place in the school of the world，not the classroom.One of the lessons we learn is undoubtedly a moral one.As we get to know foreign places，we come to understand that there are many different ways to live，and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best.The British politician Benjamin Disraeli summed this up well when he said，“Travel teaches toleration.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了旅行是最令人兴奋的体验之一。旅行不只是为了娱乐，还有教育意义。
28．The author uses Marco Polo and Zhang Qian as examples to .
A．explain how the Silk Road was founded
B．present travel as an amazing experience
C．show how the way people travel has changed
D．describe important cultural exchanges in history
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have.”可知，作者举马可·波罗和张骞的例子就是为了证明旅行是一种令人兴奋的体验。
29．By saying “the best travel is the first one” in Paragraph 2，the author means that .
A．one’s first trip is usually the most challenging
B．no other trip is better than one’s first trip
C．there is always much to learn on one’s first trip
D．people usually make better preparations for their first trip
答案 B
解析 句意理解题。根据第二段最后两句可知，作者这么说想表达的是第一次旅行是最好的。
30．The underlined word “recreation”in Paragraph 3 probably means “ ”．
A．learning B．knowledge
C．fun D．risk
答案 C
解析 词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“it’s also educational”以及上下文语境可知，此处表示旅行不只是为了娱乐，还有教育意义，故画线词词义为“娱乐”，与fun同义。
31．According to the last two paragraphs，the author believes that .
A．traveling should be included in formal education
B．traveling improves people’s confidence in their lifestyle
C．a foreign journey may raise people’s cultural understanding
D．there is more to learn from adventures than classes
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“We’re learning every day：new words in a new language，new people，and new ways of life.But this learning takes place in the school of the world，not the classroom.”可知，作者认为国外旅行会提高人们对文化的理解。
D
One day in March，seven years ago，during happy hour at a bar in my hometown of Fayetteville，Arkansas，I made a surprising announcement to my friends：I was going to shut down my law practice and attempt to travel around the globe in a year.What’s more，I would do it without taking any flights or making a single advance reservation of any kind.My announcement drew mixed reactions from my friends.Some offered support and encouragement，while others were more doubtful.
Once I had said the words，there was no turning back.It took months to shut down my law practice and get things in order.Once I set off on my adventure in December 2008，I found travelling without using planes was not easy.Trying to circle the globe in 16 months (it took me a bit longer than the initial 12 months I planned) made it even harder.Even so，travelling overland was the most amazing way to truly understand the immensity(浩瀚无际) of our wonderful planet.
I took three consecutive(连续的) overnight buses to travel 3,000 km through Argentina，from Ushuaia to the capital Buenos Aires.I would look out of the windows for hours on end at the completely unspoiled plains，as if humans had never touched it.
It took seven consecutive days and nights on trains to get from Moscow to Beijing，each day spent staring out of the windows for hours as the Siberian plains swept by.Sometimes，I wouldn’t see a village or a human being for 10 hours.Later in my journey，it took 22 days on a cargo freighter(货船) to get from New Zealand through the Panama Canal and back to Philadelphia，to finish my roundtheworld adventure.
It turned out that travelling with no reservations was far less difficult than I had imagined.Pulling into a city on a bus with a backpack，looking in a guidebook for a few suggestions of accommodations(住所)，and then finding an empty room was never much of a problem anywhere.It also kept me flexible(灵活) and open about all my travel plans，which is advice I give everyone who asks—plan far less than you think you should.

第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分， 满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文， 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A travel blog produces interest in people for visiting the new places. 36 A blog owner might identify a place, such as travel locations within a small region of a country, or broaden the scope to include countries across the globe.Writing a travel blog requires recording notes and observations, taking pictures and talking to local people while traveling.Here are a few tips for writing a travel blog.
First of all, you must visit various places so that you can teach your visitors about these locations.Visitors of your site want an eyecatching text such that they feel as if they are at the place you’re describing.
37 Protect the reliability of your travel blog by proving all facts.Write down directions as you travel to various locations so that you can provide accurate information to readers.Provide the correct spelling of towns, people, restaurants and streets.Call phone numbers and visit website links before publishing to verify accuracy.
38 As you travel, write down your impressions.After a memorable dining experience, for example, write down the name of the restaurant, the dish you ordered, its ingredients and the details of the decor and music.
You must add people’s interview during the journey. 39 The scent of rare flowers，the beautiful view from a mountain top，the feel of soft towels in a highend hotel，and the sound of a waterfall are examples of descriptions that help people to connect immediately with a place or experience.
Take pictures.To help people see things with their own eyes, take pictures of all locations about which you wish to write.Local cuisines, landmarks, traditional clothing and scenic locations are possible examples. 40
Respond to readers’ comments.Blogs typically allow you to accept or disable comments.Allowing comments is an opportunity to build rapport with readers and answer questions.
A．Keep a travel journal.
B．Record events on videos.
C．Provide correct facts.
D．Ask for submissions from other travelers.
E．Visiting gives mental satisfaction to all people.
F．Use the senses when writing about locations.
G．Take photos, posting the clearest and most bright pictures.
36．答案 E
解析 空格前面“A travel blog produces interest in people for visiting the new places.”中的interest与E选项中的mental satisfaction呼应。
37．答案 C
解析 结合空格后面的“Protect the reliability of your travel blog by proving all facts.”可知，旅行博客要准确可靠，故选C。
38．答案 A
解析 根据空格后面“As you travel, write down your impressions.”中的“write down(记录)”可知，A选项“记录旅行日记”切题。
39．答案 F
解析 结合空格后面的“The scent of rare flowers, the beautiful view from a mountain top, the feel of soft towels...”可知，F项“写地点的时候运用感官”切题。scent，view，feel，sound与F项中的senses呼应。
40．答案 G
解析 根据本段的主题句“Take pictures.”可知选G。

语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了去年暑假，作者和家人一起去游览故宫博物院的经历。
56．答案 largest
解析 考查形容词最高级。句意为：故宫博物院被称为紫禁城，它是现在中国最大的，保存最好的皇帝住所。根据空前the及空后most well可知，此处用形容词最高级。故填largest。
57．答案 reserved
解析 考查非谓语动词。reserve与其逻辑主语The Palace Museum之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词。故填reserved。
58．答案 width
解析 考查名词。in width“宽度上”，是固定短语。故填width。
59．答案 was rebuilt
解析 考查时态和语态。“它”和“重建”之间是被动关系，所以用被动语态；表示发生在过去的事情，用一般过去时，综上所述，用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was rebuilt。
60．答案 with
解析 考查介词。句意为：去年暑假，我和我的家人一起去参观故宫博物院，我非常激动。表示“和……一起”，用介词with。故填with。
61．答案 It
解析 考查it作形式主语。不定式to build the Forbidden City是真正的主语，句首需要一个形式主语。故填It。
62．答案 really
解析 考查副词。修饰形容词surprised应用副词。故填really。
63．答案 that
解析 考查固定句型。句意为：工匠们建造得如此好，以至于今天看起来都不过时。此处是固定句型：so...that“如此……以至于……”。故填that。
64．答案 photos
解析 考查名词复数。被hundreds of修饰，所以用名词复数。故填photos。
65．答案 amazing
解析 考查形容词。amazing“令人惊奇的”常修饰物，amazed“感到惊奇的”常修饰人；这里修饰trip，所以用amazing。故填amazing。

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语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was the hottest time of the year in southern California.Steve，a star basketball player at the University of California，with his cousin Zach，had planned a camping trip in the Great National Forest for their summer vacation.
The boys gathered clothes and supplies，and began their great adventure with Brady the dog early in the morning.Upon arrival，Steve pulled over to the side of the road along the bank of the river.“A wonderful place for fishing，” Steve exclaimed in delight.Zach nodded in agreement.
At high noon，the sun was scorching hot.With a good harvest of fish，the boys marched into the forest with Brady following them.After a long walk，they found a clearing that was ideal for a campsite.The camp was set up immediately as Steve knew all the tricks of an experienced wilderness camper.
An afternoon nap was absolutely a special treat in midsummer.However，the boys were waken up by the fierce barks of Brady.Outside，heavy smoke filled the air and windblown flame was skipping from the top of one tree to another.The long dry summer turned the forest into a tinderbox.In a little while，Steve and Zach were inside their tent packing their belongings.
“Let’s go! We can make it back to the river！” They headed down against the firewind in the direction of the river.But Brady barked a sharp warning.Ahead of them lay a thick curtain of smoke across the track.They would never make it through that.Steve was uneasy for it was hard to find a safe way to escape in the heavy smoke.
Brady lifted his head and snuffed(嗅) the smokeladen wind.Next moment，the dog bounded away and disappeared down a sharp slope(坡)．The boys shouted for him，but he didn’t come back.Steve couldn’t blame Brady for panicking.He himself wanted to run even though he didn’t know where to run.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
Steve and Zach hadn’t gone far when there was a familiar bark.
Brady pulled again，in spite of the boy’s disbelief，urgently.
参考范文
Steve and Zach hadn’t gone far when there was a familiar bark.Brady came bounding，stopped directly in front of Steve and hit him with his head，pushing him back toward the slope.But Steve didn’t get it.Then Brady grabbed the boy’s jeans and started pulling.The message was clear，but Steve hesitated.Of course he remembered Brady saving his uncle’s life when the dog was much younger.Was he still sharp enough to get them through this?
Brady pulled again，in spite of the boy’s disbelief，urgently.“OK，big guy，” seeing the fire was touching underbrush nearby，Steve made up his mind.Brady led them back down the slope and into the trees.Several times the big dog stopped.Often he changed directions to find the right way.The boys were so tired but the dog bullied both boys to go on.Steve was almost numb when he heard it—the wonderful sound of rushing water! They made it back to the river.
