第二部分　阅读理解(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和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Beautiful Glowing Beaches Around the World
If you need a reminder that nature is awesome, here are some beaches around the world that naturally glow (发光). Time to add these to your travel list!
Gippsland Lakes, Australia
During the day, the Gippsland Lakes are like any other: you can swim, water ski, or sail. But at night, the landscape begins to glow due to bioluminescent algae (生物发光的藻类). In 2006, massive rainstorms caused large amounts of algae to enter into the lakes. It glows whenever the water is disturbed, but it has slowly faded with time, which is welcome news for the lakes’ ecosystem.
The Maldives
This glowing beach in the Maldives is just one of the attractive features of the nation. The sand on this beach glows in the dark because of sea shrimp (海虾). These tiny organisms give out blue light for up to a minute, lighting up your path as you walk across the beach.
Halong Bay, Vietnam
Halong Bay is one of Vietnam’s most popular tourist destinations, but it’s not just because of its famous islands covered in green rainforests. At night, boat tours take people out on the water to see the blue-green light from the algae.
Dongying, China
The dreamlike sea in Dongying gives us a strong desire to travel unlike any other travel destination. The glow-in-the-dark algae is found mostly on the rock formations along the shoreline, which gives them a blue-green glow. Plus, it acts as a natural warning light if you’re swimming at night.
21．What can be inferred about the Gippsland Lakes?
A．They may stop glowing over time.
B．They are lit by algae during the day.
C．They are frequently hit by rainstorms.
D．They tend to be dangerous for swimmers.
22．In what way is the beach in the Maldives different from the others?
A．It isn’t a popular tourist destination. B．It is surrounded by rainforests.
C．Its light source isn’t algae. D．Its glow can last for a long time.
23．Where can you see glowing rocks?
A．At the Gippsland Lakes. B．At Halong Bay.
C．On the beach in the Maldives. D．In Dongying.
【答案】21．A    22．C    23．D
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍世界各地美丽的发光海滩。
21．推理判断题。根据Gippsland Lakes, Australia中的“It glows whenever the water is disturbed, but it has slowly faded with time, which is welcome news for the lakes’ ecosystem. (当湖水受到干扰时，它就会发光，但随着时间的推移，它会慢慢褪色，这对湖泊的生态系统来说是个好消息。) ”可推断随着时间的推移，它们可能会停止发光。故选A。
22．细节理解题。根据The Maldives中的“The sand on this beach glows in the dark because of sea shrimp (海虾). These tiny organisms give out blue light for up to a minute, lighting up your path as you walk across the beach. (由于海虾的存在，海滩上的沙子在黑暗中会发光。这些微小的生物会发出长达一分钟的蓝光，照亮你走过海滩的路。)”可知Maldives的光源是海虾。而其他的海滩都是藻类发出的光，故选C。
23．细节理解题。根据Dongying, China中的“The glow-in-the-dark algae is found mostly on the rock formations along the shoreline, which gives them a blue-green glow. (这种能在黑暗中发光的藻类主要分布在海岸线的岩层上，这使它们发出蓝绿色的光。)”可知你在Dongying能看到发光的岩石，故选D。


B
Children are naturally curious about the world around them. When Chase Hansen was only 4 years old, he encountered homeless people for the first time while shopping with his dad at an outdoor mall in Salt Lake City, Nevada.  It’s no wonder that he had a lot of questions.
“Chase looked at me and said, ‘Dad, who are these people? Why don’t they have a place to stay?’” John Hansen recalled. “After I explained that they had run into hard times and were homeless, I knew that we were looking at an educational opportunity. My son wanted to help them.”
The father and son convinced a local Jamba Juice store to donate more than 100 smoothies(果汁)and the pair gave them out to homeless people in a park.
After that, they came up with an even better idea. “I wanted a way to get to know people better, “Chase said. ”So, my dad and I decided to start taking some of the homeless people we’d met out to lunch.
“A lot of people walk right past homeless people and don’t see the person,” he said. “I know now that they’re people just like us. They want to make a connection and not feel so alone in the world.”
Hundreds of lunches later, they run a self-funded charity called Project Empathy(同情)to help inspire others to meet and to create relationships with the homeless people in their neighborhoods. The organization provides a list of resources that can help homeless people with food, housing and employment.
John said that what started as a way to spend quality time with his son has turned into a passion for both of them. “Chase and I realized that the country needed an army of people to practice empathy, and that by doing something as simple as taking a homeless person to lunch, we could maybe inspire others to do the same, ”he said. “Any time you can help to give someone a voice, it’s empowering.
24．Which of the following can best describe Chase Hansen?
A．Curious and caring. B．Knowledgeable and kind.
C．Successful and talented. D．Generous and ambitious.
25．Why did John and his son take some homeless people out to lunch initially?
A．To help them to find the suitable shelter.
B．To make friends with the homeless people.
C．To do some research and prepare for a project.
D．To have a better understanding of the homeless people.
26．What’s the father and son super team’s goal?
A．To offer jobs to the homeless.
B．To change the social-economic conditions.
C．To donate more smoothies to the homeless.
D．To inspire more people to help the homeless.
27．What’s the best title of the text?
A．The Terrible Situation of Homeless People
B．The Relationship Between Father and Son
C．Father and Son Help Homeless People One Meal at a Time
D．Project Empathy Encourages People to Practice Empathy
【答案】24．A    25．D    26．D    27．C
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了父亲和儿子通过请那些无家可归的人吃一顿饭的方式来帮助无家可归的人。
24．推理判断题。根据第一段中“It’s no wonder that he had a lot of questions.”（难怪他有那么多问题。）以及第二段中“My son wanted to help them.”（我儿子想帮助他们。）可推知，蔡斯·汉森是充满好奇心和爱心的。故选A项。
25．细节理解题。根据第四段“After that, they came up with an even better idea. “I wanted a way to get to know people better, “Chase said. ” So, my dad and I decided to start taking some of the homeless people we’d met out to lunch.”（在那之后，他们想出了一个更好的主意。“我想要一种更好地了解别人的方式，”蔡斯说。所以，我爸爸和我决定开始带一些我们认识的无家可归的人出去吃午饭。）可知，约翰和他的儿子最初带一些无家可归的人出去吃午饭是为了更好地了解无家可归的人。故选D项。
26．细节理解题。根据最后一段中““Chase and I realized that the country needed an army of people to practice empathy, and that by doing something as simple as taking a homeless person to lunch, we could maybe inspire others to do the same, ”he said.”（“蔡斯和我意识到，这个国家需要一大批人来实践同理心，通过做一些简单的事情，比如带一个无家可归的人去吃午餐，我们也许可以激励其他人也这么做，”他说。）可知，父子超级组合的目标是激励更多的人去帮助无家可归的人。故选D项。
27．主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及最后一段中““Chase and I realized that the country needed an army of people to practice empathy, and that by doing something as simple as taking a homeless person to lunch, we could maybe inspire others to do the same, ”he said.”（“蔡斯和我意识到，这个国家需要一大批人来实践同理心，通过做一些简单的事情，比如带一个无家可归的人去吃午餐，我们也许可以激励其他人也这么做，”他说。）可知，文章主要讲述了父亲和儿子通过请那些无家可归的人吃一顿饭的方式来帮助无家可归的人。故可推知文章最好的标题是“父亲和儿子为无家可归的人提供一顿饭”。故选C项。

C
Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.
Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.
At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages. Often spoken by many people while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 Languages: the Americas about 1,000, Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6，000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.
Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150). Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.
28．What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?
A．They developed very fast. B．They were large in number.
C．They had similar patters. D．They were closely connected
29．Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2？
A．Complex. B．Advanced.
C．Powerful. D．Modern.
30．How many languages are spoken by less than 6, 000 people at present?
A．About 6,800 . B．About 3,400
C．About 2,400 D．About 1,200.
31．What is the main idea of the text?
A．New languages will be created.
B．Peoples lifestyles are reflected in languages.
C．Human development results in fewer languages.
D．Geography determines language evolution.
【答案】28．B    29．C    30．B    31．C
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了随着社会的发展人类语言越来越少及其原因。
28．推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit (联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other... when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.可知，当世界以依靠狩猎为生的人组成的时候，小而联系紧密的群落形成了他们彼此之间独立的讲话模式……当世界上的人口数量不到一千万时，语言种类达到了12,000种。由此推知，当时的语言种类很多。故选B。
29．猜测词义题。根据文章第二段中的dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.可知，英语、西班牙语和汉语正在快速替代其他语言。由此推知dominant languages意为“强有力的语言”。故选C。
30．细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的At present, the world has about 6,800 languages.和The median number (中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world’s languages are spoken by fewer people than that. 可知，目前世界上大约有6800种语言，但是讲的人数少于6000人的占一半即3400。故选B。
31．主旨要义题。根据文章第一段中的主题句Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going.可知，语言的产生和消失进行了几千年，但最近语言产生的少，消失的太多。故选C。
点睛：长难句解读
In recent centuries, trade, industrialisation, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.
分析：dominant前的and连接两个并列句，all和前面的名词短语trade, industrialisation, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications是同位语。
句意：在最近的几个世纪，贸易、工业化、民族国家的发展和全球义务教育的普及，尤其是过去几十年来，全球化和更好的交流，这些都导致许多语言消失。而且像英语、西班牙语和汉语等主流语言正日益占据主导地位。

D
Libraries have existed for nearly as long as humans have had written languages. They have been esteemed (受尊敬的) places of learning and comprehensive repositories (储藏室) of human knowledge, history, and ideas. Written materials from all over the civilized world have been collected and preserved in libraries and without them much of what was known to ancient peoples would have been lost in the moden world.
Open societies especially like the free exchange of ideas and information—all ideas, not just those that are socially acceptable at a particular point in time and all opinions, no just mainstream ones.
Our public libraries need to be places that broaden our perspectives and stretch our minds and imaginations. There’s no reason to ban any books from the general public. That’s not to say all books are appropriate for all age groups. But it’s easy enough to limit access of the very young to “adult” literature without preventing mature readers from a full range of materials.
Private libraries may sometimes regard certain topics as too offensive (冒犯的) or objectionable to include in their collection. And elementary school libraries should probably not include books that would be inappropriate for young children on their bookshelves. All libraries have to be selective, due to limited budgets, and space and age are always considered in acquisition (购置) decisions. But this is very different from actually banning specific titles.
And who is to decide what is acceptable and what is not? Should we get rid of all materials that are unconventional, that challenge the present situation, or that make anyone uncomfortable? Should we restrict all materials in public libraries to what is inoffensive to the most sensitive members of society or to what overprotective parents believe will not disturb young children?
Open societies, as they say, are messy. The Harry Potter novels may be the greatest children’s books ever written. Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States may be a publication of nation’s rich history, but sometimes brutal history to some else, especially those ever hurt by the country. Anyway, libraries exist to preserve all human thoughts and recorded experience.
32．Which of the following does the author most probably agree with?
A．All books are suitable for all age groups.
B．It’s a right decision to ban some bad books.
C．Many young readers have become mature ones.
D．Ideas which are not the mainstream should be accepted.
33．What can we learn from the text?
A．The libraries should be child-friendly.
B．Some libraries have their unique needs.
C．Public libraries are better than private ones.
D．Libraries should get rid of conventional materials.
34．What does the underlined word “brutal” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A．Cruel. B．Strange. C．Unfamiliar. D．Important.
35．What does the text mainly talk about?
A．The history of libraries around the world.
B．The classification of books in libraries.
C．Whether some books should be banned in libraries.
D．The differences between public and private libraries.

【答案】32．D    33．B    34．A    35．C
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要讨论了图书馆的资料是否应该限制在对社会上最敏感的人无害的范围内，还是限制在过度保护的父母认为不会打扰幼儿的范围内。
32．推理判断题。根据第二段“Open societies especially like the free exchange of ideas and information—all ideas, not just those that are socially acceptable at a particular point in time and all opinions, no just mainstream ones.(开放的社会尤其喜欢思想和信息的自由交流——所有的思想，而不仅仅是那些在特定时间点被社会接受的思想，和所有的观点，也不仅仅只是主流思想)”可知，作者认为所有的思想和观点都应该存在与开放的社会中，最可能同意的观点是非主流的思想应该被接受。故选D。
33．细节理解题。根据第三段“Our public libraries need to be places that broaden our perspectives and stretch our minds and imaginations. There’s no reason to ban any books from the general public.(我们的公共图书馆需要成为拓宽我们视野、拓展我们思维和想象力的地方。没有理由禁止公众阅读任何书籍)”以及第四段“Private libraries may sometimes regard certain topics as too offensive or objectionable to include in their collection. And elementary school libraries should probably not include books that would be inappropriate for young children on their bookshelves.(私人图书馆有时可能会认为某些主题过于冒犯或令人反感，无法将其纳入馆藏。小学图书馆的书架上可能不应该放不适合幼儿阅读的书籍)”可知，一些特定的图书馆可能有其独特的需求。故选B。
34．词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States may be a publication of nation’s rich history, but sometimes brutal history to some else, especially those ever hurt by the country.(霍华德·津恩的《美国人民的历史》可能是一本关于美国丰富历史的出版物，但有时对其他人来说是brutal历史，尤其是那些曾经受到美国伤害的人)”可知，对曾经受到美国伤害的人来说，《美国人民的历史》一书可能介绍了残酷的历史，推测划线单词表示“残酷的”，与cruel同义。故选A。
35．主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“Should we restrict all materials in public libraries to what is inoffensive to the most sensitive members of society or to what overprotective parents believe will not disturb young children?(我们是否应该将公共图书馆的所有材料限制在对社会最敏感的成员无害的范围内，或者限制在过度保护的父母认为不会打扰幼儿的范围内？)”以及文章内容可知，本文主要讨论了图书馆的资料是否应该限制在对社会上最敏感的人无害的范围内，还是限制在过度保护的父母认为不会打扰幼儿的范围内，即图书馆是否应该禁止某些书籍。故选C。

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。
When you think about art, you might think of it as permanent. After all, that picture you drew in kindergarten might still hang on your refrigerator years later. ___36___ Think about a Broadway performance. When it’s over, it’s over. Sure, it might live on in your memory or on film. But the live show was a special event. It was limited to one time and place.
Can you think of other forms of art that are temporary? ___37___ Have you ever spent hours building a beautiful sandcastle? If you have, you probably were sad when it was time to leave the beach. You knew your work of art would be gone as soon as the tide came in. The sandy beach is a canvas(油画布) that nature erases daily.
Most of the time, art made from sand can’t last long. Still, many people love using sand to create their own unique vision of beauty. ___38___ It is a type of live performance art. Artists who work in sand animation use sand to make a set of images that usually tell a story. They often start with a large amount of sand on a flat surface, such as a table. They then use their hands and fingers to draw in the sand.
___39___ However, the wide variety of beautiful and highly-detailed sand artworks might surprise you. Many of these works of art are temporary. That’s where the animation part comes in.
Sand animation artists create a series of images that move to tell a story. They might also use music and special lighting to complete the effect. Sometimes they take photographs of or video their creation throughout the process. ___40___
A．Not all works of art are permanent, though.
B．Sand animation is beautiful but lasts only at the moment.
C．If you’re a fan of the beach, sandcastles might come to mind.
D．One of the most attractive types of sand art is sand animation.
E．Then, they turn it into a sand animation movie when it’s finished.
F．It might seem like using sand would limit the art you could make.
G．Building a sand castle is a family-friendly activity perfect for large groups.

36．根据上文“When you think about art, you might think of it as permanent. After all, that picture you drew in kindergarten might still hang on your refrigerator years later.(当你想到艺术时，你可能会认为它是永恒的。毕竟，你在幼儿园画的那幅画可能几年后还会挂在冰箱上)”以及后文“Think about a Broadway performance. When it’s over, it’s over. Sure, it might live on in your memory or on film. But the live show was a special event. It was limited to one time and place.( 想想百老汇的演出。结束了，就结束了。当然，它可能活在你的记忆里或电影里。但是现场表演是一个特殊的事件。它被限制在一个时间和地点)”由此可知，后文提到百老汇的演出结束了就是结束了，只能存在于记忆中，说明本句与上文形成转折，说明并不是所有的艺术作品都是永久的。故A选项“不过，并不是所有的艺术作品都是永久的”符合语境，故选A。
37．根据上文“Can you think of other forms of art that are temporary?(你还能想到其他暂时的艺术形式吗?)”以及后文“Have you ever spent hours building a beautiful sandcastle?(你曾经花了几个小时建造一个美丽的沙堡吗？)”由此可知，后文提到了沙堡这种短暂的艺术形式，可推知本句是在说明沙滩上堆沙堡的事情，从而引出后文。后文中sandcastle可对应到C选项中sandcastles。故C选项“如果你喜欢沙滩，你可能会想到沙堡”符合语境，故选C。
38．根据上文“Most of the time, art made from sand can’t last long. Still, many people love using sand to create their own unique vision of beauty.(大多数时候，用沙子做的艺术品不会持续太久。尽管如此，还是有很多人喜欢用沙子来创造自己独特的美景)”以及后文“It is a type of live performance art. Artists who work in sand animation use sand to make a set of images that usually tell a story. They often start with a large amount of sand on a flat surface, such as a table. They then use their hands and fingers to draw in the sand.(它是一种现场表演艺术。从事沙画的艺术家们用沙子制作一组图像，通常讲述一个故事。他们通常从平面上的大量沙子开始，比如桌子。然后他们用手和手指在沙子里画画)”由此可知，本句为过渡句，引出后文沙画这种沙子艺术类型，后文中it对应到D选项中sand animation。故D选项“最吸引人的沙子艺术类型之一是沙画”符合语境，故选D。
39．根据后文“However, the wide variety of beautiful and highly-detailed sand artworks might surprise you.( 然而，各种各样的美丽和高度细致的沙子艺术品可能会让你惊讶)”由此可知，本句与后文形成转折，提出沙子看起来可能会限制艺术创作，实际上沙子艺术品非常多样化。故F选项“看起来用沙子会限制你的艺术创作”符合语境，故选F。
40．根据上文“Sand animation artists create a series of images that move to tell a story. They might also use music and special lighting to complete the effect. Sometimes they take photographs of or video their creation throughout the process.(沙画艺术家创造了一系列的图像，通过移动来讲述一个故事。他们也可能使用音乐和特殊的灯光来完成效果。有时他们会在整个创作过程中拍摄照片或录像)”由此可知，本句为本段最后一句，对上文进行总结，上文提到拍摄沙画的制作过程，故本句应当是说明拍摄完成后，就成了一部沙画电影。故E选项“然后，当它完成的时候，他们把它变成一个沙画电影”符合语境，故选E。

61．考查连词。句意：小学现在非常重视劳动教育，提倡学生进行烹饪、制作手工艺品和装饰房屋等活动。分析句子可知，空格处应填入并列连词。根据句意，此处指“和；以及”，故用and。故填and。

My name is Li Hua, Senior 3 student from Xinhua Middle School. Every day I have to get up on 6:10 in the morning, and go to school before 7 o’clock, when much people are still sleeping. I’m busy with my studies because I have a lot of homeworks to do, which make me feel under great pressure. English is the subject in which I’m interesting. When I feel stressed, I’ll turn to my the best friend Mike for help. We have been best friend since we were very young. Whenever I’m in trouble, he will cheer him up. Now I’m tried my best to prepare for the college entrance examination.
【答案】1. Senior前加上a
2. on→at
3. much→many
4. homeworks→homework
5. make→makes
6. interesting→interested
7. 删除the
8. friend→friends
9. him→me
10. tried→trying
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者的高中生活并介绍了作者最好的朋友迈克。
【详解】1.考查冠词。句意：我的名字叫李华，是来自新华中学的一名高三学生。结合语意，此处表示“一名高三学生”，应用不定冠词表示泛指，Senior是辅音音素开头的单词，前边应用不定冠词a。故在Senior前加上a。
2.考查介词。句意：每天我必须在早上6点10分起床，7点之前上学，那时很多人还在睡觉。6:10是具体的时间点，前边应用介词at。故将on改为at。
3.考查形容词。句意：每天我必须在早上6点10分起床，7点之前上学，那时很多人还在睡觉。people为可数名词，前边应用many修饰，表示“许多人”。故将much改为many。
4.考查名词。句意：我忙于学习，因为我有很多家庭作业要做，这让我感到压力很大。homework表示“家庭作业”，为不可数名词，没有复数形式。故将homeworks改为homework。
5.考查主谓一致。句意：我忙于学习，因为我有很多家庭作业要做，这让我感到压力很大。根据句中have可知，句子使用一般现在时，分析句子结构可知，which引导非限制性定语从句，修饰前边的句子，关系词which指代先行词，即前边的句子，在从句中作主语，所以从句谓语应用第三人称单数形式。故将make改为makes。
6.考查形容词。句意：英语是我感兴趣的科目。结合语意可知，此处表示“我感兴趣的科目”，应用形容词interested，表示“感兴趣的”。故将interesting改为interested。
7.考查固定搭配。句意：当我感到有压力时，我会向我最好的朋友迈克求助。最高级形式best前有形容词性物主代词my，不需要再使用定冠词the。故删除the。
8.考查名词。句意：我们从很小的时候就一直是最好的朋友。根据句中we以及语意可知，此处表示“我们是最好的朋友”，所以名词friend应用复数形式。故将friend改为friends。
9.考查代词。句意：每当我处于困境中，他都会让我振作起来。结合语意可知，此处表示“他使我振作起来”，应用代词的宾格形式me，表示“我”。故将him改为me。
10.考查时态。句意：现在我正在尽力准备高考。根据时间状语now可知，句子使用现在进行时，动词应用ing形式trying，与am构成现在进行时，符合题意。故将tried改为trying
