Firemen had been fighting the forest fire for nearly three weeks before they could get it under control.A short time before，great trees had covered the countryside for miles around.Now，smoke still rose up from the warm ground over the desolate hills.Winter was coming and the hills threatened the surrounding villages，for heavy rain would not only wash away the soil but would cause serious floods as well.When the fire had at last been put out，the forest authorities ordered several tons of a special type of grass seed which would grow quickly.The seed was sprayed over the ground in huge quantities by planes.The planes had been planting seeds for nearly a month when it began to rain.By then，however，in many places the grass had already taken root.In place of the great trees，green grass had begun to appear in the blackened soil.

A
When in Ireland，do as the Irish do.And when it comes to food and drink，be sure to try these local specialities(地方特色菜)．
(1)Baked Ham
Definitely not a poor man’s dish，the traditional Irish ham was coated with sugar，dressed with cloves(丁香)，then baked until crisp on the outside，tender on the inside.Generally it is served with boiled cabbage and cooked or fried potatoes.It is not everyday food，even for the well-to-do，but bargains can be had at some pub restaurants.
(2)Smoked Salmon
The most popular way to enjoy salmon is smoked，either on bread with egg，or simply on its own with a salad on the side.Farmed salmon can be rather ordinary；the flavor of wild salmon tend to be better.Unfortunately the price of wild salmon tends to be significantly higher as well.
(3)Dublin Coddle
Dubliners often eat this on Saturday nights before they go out.It is a good basic dish made of chopped sausage and bacon cooked with onions and potatoes in beef stock.It is also easy to make in quantity，and can be reheated the next day.
(4)Soup of the Day
Advertised nearly everywhere，it is usually served with bread and butter，and is a very good value for a lunchtime snack.In a typical Irish way the question，“What is the soup of the day？” will，nine times out of ten，be answered with a shrug and the word，“Vegetable.” Pot luck(家常菜) is the order of the day.
21．Which of the following is usually cooked and eaten on weekends?
A．Baked Ham. B．Smoked Salmon.
C．Dublin Coddle. D．Soup of the Day.
答案 C

A．scarcely B．usually
C．fortunately D．unluckily
答案 B
解析 词义猜测题。根据最后一句“Pot luck(家常菜) is the order of the day.”可知，家常菜自然是“经常、频繁”食用的。故选B。

A．Baked Ham is usually eaten by the rich
B．Soup of the Day is the most common dish of the four

Prateek Sharma was born into a family of farmers.After 10 years of being a chief manager of Kotak Mahindra Bank，he did a good job and earned a good pay.But Prateek couldn’t continue the corporation life with ease，as his heart was always in farming.So he worked as a banker on weekdays and on weekends travelled 100 km to get to his 5-acre farm in Dhaba Khurd.
By the end of 2015，Prateek had set up a house on his farm to grow off-season vegetables.Prateek thought he’d quit his job once he was able to earn enough from farming，but this wasn’t an easy decision to make.This was because costs to grow these vegetables were very high，along with the fact that farmers weren’t a part of the value chain and thus couldn’t decide the price of their own vegetables.
Fortunately，Prateek met Vinay Yadav，another educated farmer.They then decided to start their own value chain and sell their vegetables and grains，while skipping the middlemen.The variety of vegetables they grew wasn’t enough，so they decided to form a group of farmers.
Once the plan was ready，the group was registered by the name of Farmer Producer Organization(FPO)．However，the trial failed in the first year as most of the farmers were grain growers and had limited knowledge of growing vegetables.However，the largest reason was the switch from chemical to organic farming.
Luckily，once the soil was used to organic methods，the next round of crops were successful and the FPO had a good amount of produce.So at the end of 2017，Prateek finally quitted his job and devoted all his time to farming.Now he’s successful and recently his team has started two farmer resource centers at Dhaba Khurd and Nathrula Canj.

A．The prices of organic products were low.

27．What mainly resulted in the failure of FPO’s first year trial?
A．Their no experience in growing vegetables.
B．Their poor management on the employees.
C．The soil’s not adapting to organic farming.
D．The wrong ways of doing organic farming.
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句和第五段第一句可知，导致FPO第一年试验失败的主要原因是土壤不适应有机农业。故选C。

Two years ago，I set foot in Tanzania for the first time as a volunteer.And now，I’m writing this at my home in the middle of a village in Tanzania.I never thought that a six-week volunteer program could change my life so greatly，but it did!
My volunteer task was in Moshi.Of course I was nervous when I got my task，but on my first day，I quickly fell in love with my students.They were some of the sweetest and most hard-working kids I had ever met.Each day，I’d have them write in their journals on a new topic.One of my favorite days was when I asked the kids to write about their own life stories.Some of them shared theirs with everyone，and it was great.They had all been through so many difficult times，but no one had ever asked them to tell their stories before.To be able to offer these wonderful kids a safe environment to share such personal stories was amazing.And I couldn’t have created that environment without what I had learned from Cross-Cultural Solutions(CCS)．
I completely fell in love with Tanzania during my time with CCS.I loved it so much that when I left in 2014，I knew that I had to return.So after I left college in 2015，I moved back to Tanzania and have been working at a school for Maasai children for almost one year now.
The experience that I had with CCS changed my career goals and my life greatly.I now plan to go into public health so that I can continue to help people around the world for the rest of my life.

The World Happiness Report，a United Nations agency report，measures(估量) how happy people are，and why.Norway is the happiest place on Earth—beating neighbour Denmark from the number one position.
Denmark，Iceland，Switzerland and Finland round out the top five，while the Central African Republic came last.Western Europe and North America took up most of the places at the top of table，with the US and UK at 14th and 19th.
The World Happiness Report mainly depends on asking a simple question of more than 1,000 people every year in more than 150 countries.“Imagine a ladder(梯子)，with steps numbered from 0 at the bottom to 10 at the top，” the question asks.“The top of the ladder is the best possible life for you and the bottom of the ladder is the worst possible life for you.On which step of the ladder would you say you personally feel you stand at this time？”
The average result is the country’s score—from Norway’s 7.54 to the Central African Republic’s 2.69.But the report also tries to explain why one country is happier than another.It looks at reasons including economic strength(经济实力)，social support，freedom of choice，and generosity.
This year’s report also has a text titled “Restoring(恢复) American Happiness”，which examines why happiness levels in the United States are falling，despite continually-increasing economic improvement.“The United States can and should raise happiness by solving America’s social problems—rising inequality and distrust—rather than focusing mainly on economic growth，” the authors said.
Jeffrey Sachs，the director of the Sustainable Development Solutions Network，which published the report，said President Donald Trump’s policies were likely to make things worse.

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。
Rich and Famous
Twenty years ago the most common ambition of American children was to be a teacher，followed by working in banking and finance，and then medicine.But today’s situation is quite different. 36 Instead they most commonly say they want to be a sports star，a pop star，or an actor—in other words，they hope to become a celebrity.
According to experts，young people desire these jobs largely because of the wealth and the fame. 37 Let’s take athletes and singers as an example.Their careers are short-lived.Many athletes’ best time only lasts a few years and singers can have a very limited career.The field that was once the focus of their lives becomes something they have little or no involvement in.As a result，they’ll have a feeling of worthlessness and a lack of control. 38 The truth is quite simple：they have been so far removed from it for so long.
In spite of these disadvantages，there is greater ambition than ever among young people to achieve that status.They are not satisfied with just making a living—they want to be rich and famous.Globally，more and more TV shows provide talent competitions where winners can achieve their goals in just a few weeks or months. 39 They unrealistically believe that this lifestyle is easily obtained and leads to great satisfaction.
While many people argue that there is nothing wrong with having such ambitions，others feel that this trend will finally lead to dissatisfaction as more and more people are unable to reach their goals. 40 That means they ignore the simple fact that great effort is needed before success.As a result，many people won’t realize their childhood dreams，which could have a negative effect on their happiness.
A．The younger generation don’t favor these professions any more.
B．In many ways this has been brought about by the celebrity culture.
C．Unfortunately，they do not always have a positive effect on people’s life.
D．Besides，it can be difficult for them to adapt back to a normal everyday life.
E．People no longer have a sense of satisfaction once their goals have been achieved.
F．This quick way of gaining wealth and fame creates a celebrity culture among people.
G．The reason is that they don’t realize it takes talent and hard work to be rich and famous.

36．答案 A
解析 上句讲述了20年前美国儿童心目中向往的职业，下句讲述他们现在的梦想。中间表示转折，A项“年轻一代不再喜欢这些职业了”表达了此意，故选A。
37．答案 C
解析 根据专家的说法，年轻人渴望这些工作主要是因为财富和名望。C项“不幸的是，它们并不总是对人们的生活产生积极的影响”是对上句的进一步说明。下文用运动员和歌手的例子说明了这些工作的负面影响，故选C。
38．答案 D
解析 本段分析了现在年轻人向往的工作及这些工作并不总是对人们生活产生积极影响的原因，第一点原因是“Their careers are short-lived.”D项“此外他们很难适应正常的日常生活”是另外一种原因，与上面的原因并列。故选D。
39．答案 F
解析 本段分析了年轻人想拥有财富和名望想法的原因及结果，F项“这种快速获取财富和名声的方式在人们中间创造了一种名人文化”符合本段内容，故选F。
40．答案 G
解析 本段分析了这种愿望的不现实性，及可能会对他们的幸福产生负面影响。G项“原因是他们没有意识到，要想变得富有和出名，需要天赋和勤奋”符合本段内容，故选G。

Some scientists think it might have formed naturally.Others think it might be ancient human remains，because signs of human activities have been found there.However，now no clear evidence can prove which argument about it is true.
Why does it exist under the sea? Most scientists believe it was an earthquake that caused it to sink into the sea.Scientists throughout the world are still trying to find more information about it.
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。
Two men，both seriously ill，shared the same hospital room.One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon.His bed was next to the only window of the room.The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.The men talked for hours on end.They spoke of their wives and families，their homes，their jobs，their experiences in the army，and where they had been on vacation.Every afternoon，when the man in the bed by the window could sit up，he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.The man in the other bed began to live for those one-hour periods when his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activities and colors of the world outside.
The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake.Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats.Young lovers walked arm in arm among flowers of every color.Grand old trees made everything around more attractive，and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.As the man by the window described all these in great detail，the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene.One warm afternoon，the man by the window described a parade passing by.Although the other man couldn’t hear the band，he could see it in his mind’s eye as the gentleman by the window pictured it with descriptive words.
Days and weeks passed.One morning，the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window，who had died peacefully in his sleep.She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.As soon as it seemed appropriate，the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window.The nurse was happy to make the switch，and after making sure he was comfortable，she left him alone.Finally，he would have the joy of seeing it for himself.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
Slowly and painfully，he made his greatest possible efforts to look out of the window beside the bed.
“The man was blind and could not even see the wall.Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you，”the nurse answered.
参考范文
Slowly and painfully，he made his greatest possible efforts to look out of the window beside the bed.When eagerly looking out of the window，he was frozen with his mouth open wide at the sight of the wall.Yes，he could see nothing but a blank wall.He couldn’t believe his eyes，wondering what had happened.Gradually，he calmed down and lost himself in thought.Sitting there alone，he wondered why the former roommate spent time describing the lively scenes during the one-hour periods.After a while，the nurse came in to take his temperature.“Miss，my former roommate pictured wonderful things outside the window to me every time，when he sat up and looked out of the window.But in fact there is only a wall outside.I just can’t understand why he did so，” the man asked.
“The man was blind and could not even see the wall.Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you，” the nurse answered.He was again shocked and suddenly enlightened，feeling deeply moved.Yes，he realized he had actually lived for those periods！He remembered how much he enjoyed the happy moments his roommate brought him，which rid him of the dark clouds in his life.He felt grateful for his roommate’s special encouragement.There is great happiness in making others happy，despite our own situations.Shared grief is half the sorrow，but happiness when shared，is doubled.Never was there another moment when he knew so clearly what he can do to help the people around him.

Firemen had been fighting the forest fire for nearly three weeks before they could get it under control.A short time before，great trees had covered the countryside for miles around.Now，smoke still rose up from the warm ground over the desolate hills.Winter was coming and the hills threatened the surrounding villages，for heavy rain would not only wash away the soil but would cause serious floods as well.When the fire had at last been put out，the forest authorities ordered several tons of a special type of grass seed which would grow quickly.The seed was sprayed over the ground in huge quantities by planes.The planes had been planting seeds for nearly a month when it began to rain.By then，however，in many places the grass had already taken root.In place of the great trees，green grass had begun to appear in the blackened soil.

A
When in Ireland，do as the Irish do.And when it comes to food and drink，be sure to try these local specialities(地方特色菜)．
(1)Baked Ham
Definitely not a poor man’s dish，the traditional Irish ham was coated with sugar，dressed with cloves(丁香)，then baked until crisp on the outside，tender on the inside.Generally it is served with boiled cabbage and cooked or fried potatoes.It is not everyday food，even for the well-to-do，but bargains can be had at some pub restaurants.
(2)Smoked Salmon
The most popular way to enjoy salmon is smoked，either on bread with egg，or simply on its own with a salad on the side.Farmed salmon can be rather ordinary；the flavor of wild salmon tend to be better.Unfortunately the price of wild salmon tends to be significantly higher as well.
(3)Dublin Coddle
Dubliners often eat this on Saturday nights before they go out.It is a good basic dish made of chopped sausage and bacon cooked with onions and potatoes in beef stock.It is also easy to make in quantity，and can be reheated the next day.
(4)Soup of the Day
Advertised nearly everywhere，it is usually served with bread and butter，and is a very good value for a lunchtime snack.In a typical Irish way the question，“What is the soup of the day？” will，nine times out of ten，be answered with a shrug and the word，“Vegetable.” Pot luck(家常菜) is the order of the day.
21．Which of the following is usually cooked and eaten on weekends?
A．Baked Ham. B．Smoked Salmon.
C．Dublin Coddle. D．Soup of the Day.
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据第三道菜部分的首句“Dubliners often eat this on Saturday nights before they go out.”可知答案为C。
22．The underlined phrase in the last paragraph probably means “ ”．
A．scarcely B．usually
C．fortunately D．unluckily
答案 B
解析 词义猜测题。根据最后一句“Pot luck(家常菜) is the order of the day.”可知，家常菜自然是“经常、频繁”食用的。故选B。
23．All of the following are true EXCEPT that .
A．Baked Ham is usually eaten by the rich
B．Soup of the Day is the most common dish of the four
C．the price of wild salmon is much lower than that of farmed salmon
D．Dublin Coddle can be cooked in quantity

B
Prateek Sharma was born into a family of farmers.After 10 years of being a chief manager of Kotak Mahindra Bank，he did a good job and earned a good pay.But Prateek couldn’t continue the corporation life with ease，as his heart was always in farming.So he worked as a banker on weekdays and on weekends travelled 100 km to get to his 5-acre farm in Dhaba Khurd.
By the end of 2015，Prateek had set up a house on his farm to grow off-season vegetables.Prateek thought he’d quit his job once he was able to earn enough from farming，but this wasn’t an easy decision to make.This was because costs to grow these vegetables were very high，along with the fact that farmers weren’t a part of the value chain and thus couldn’t decide the price of their own vegetables.
Fortunately，Prateek met Vinay Yadav，another educated farmer.They then decided to start their own value chain and sell their vegetables and grains，while skipping the middlemen.The variety of vegetables they grew wasn’t enough，so they decided to form a group of farmers.
Once the plan was ready，the group was registered by the name of Farmer Producer Organization(FPO)．However，the trial failed in the first year as most of the farmers were grain growers and had limited knowledge of growing vegetables.However，the largest reason was the switch from chemical to organic farming.
Luckily，once the soil was used to organic methods，the next round of crops were successful and the FPO had a good amount of produce.So at the end of 2017，Prateek finally quitted his job and devoted all his time to farming.Now he’s successful and recently his team has started two farmer resource centers at Dhaba Khurd and Nathrula Canj.
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了普拉泰克如何放弃自己的银行工作，回到农场务农，并最终建立了自己的有机农业营销体系。

A．The prices of organic products were low.
B．The income from farming wasn’t much.
C．He had no money to put into farming.

答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Prateek thought he’d quit his job once he was able to earn enough from farming，but this wasn’t an easy decision to make.”和下文提到农业的收入不稳定可知，因为他在农业方面的收入还不够多，所以他不能决定完全辞职去务农。故选B。
26．What did Prateek and Vinay Yadav set about doing after they met?
A．Building their own marketing system.
B．Raising the prices of their products.
C．Switching from chemical to organic farming.

27．What mainly resulted in the failure of FPO’s first year trial?
A．Their no experience in growing vegetables.
B．Their poor management on the employees.
C．The soil’s not adapting to organic farming.
D．The wrong ways of doing organic farming.
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句和第五段第一句可知，导致FPO第一年试验失败的主要原因是土壤不适应有机农业。故选C。
C
Two years ago，I set foot in Tanzania for the first time as a volunteer.And now，I’m writing this at my home in the middle of a village in Tanzania.I never thought that a six-week volunteer program could change my life so greatly，but it did!
My volunteer task was in Moshi.Of course I was nervous when I got my task，but on my first day，I quickly fell in love with my students.They were some of the sweetest and most hard-working kids I had ever met.Each day，I’d have them write in their journals on a new topic.One of my favorite days was when I asked the kids to write about their own life stories.Some of them shared theirs with everyone，and it was great.They had all been through so many difficult times，but no one had ever asked them to tell their stories before.To be able to offer these wonderful kids a safe environment to share such personal stories was amazing.And I couldn’t have created that environment without what I had learned from Cross-Cultural Solutions(CCS)．
I completely fell in love with Tanzania during my time with CCS.I loved it so much that when I left in 2014，I knew that I had to return.So after I left college in 2015，I moved back to Tanzania and have been working at a school for Maasai children for almost one year now.
The experience that I had with CCS changed my career goals and my life greatly.I now plan to go into public health so that I can continue to help people around the world for the rest of my life.

The World Happiness Report mainly depends on asking a simple question of more than 1,000 people every year in more than 150 countries.“Imagine a ladder(梯子)，with steps numbered from 0 at the bottom to 10 at the top，” the question asks.“The top of the ladder is the best possible life for you and the bottom of the ladder is the worst possible life for you.On which step of the ladder would you say you personally feel you stand at this time？”
The average result is the country’s score—from Norway’s 7.54 to the Central African Republic’s 2.69.But the report also tries to explain why one country is happier than another.It looks at reasons including economic strength(经济实力)，social support，freedom of choice，and generosity.
This year’s report also has a text titled “Restoring(恢复) American Happiness”，which examines why happiness levels in the United States are falling，despite continually-increasing economic improvement.“The United States can and should raise happiness by solving America’s social problems—rising inequality and distrust—rather than focusing mainly on economic growth，” the authors said.
Jeffrey Sachs，the director of the Sustainable Development Solutions Network，which published the report，said President Donald Trump’s policies were likely to make things worse.

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。
Rich and Famous
Twenty years ago the most common ambition of American children was to be a teacher，followed by working in banking and finance，and then medicine.But today’s situation is quite different. 36 Instead they most commonly say they want to be a sports star，a pop star，or an actor—in other words，they hope to become a celebrity.
According to experts，young people desire these jobs largely because of the wealth and the fame. 37 Let’s take athletes and singers as an example.Their careers are short-lived.Many athletes’ best time only lasts a few years and singers can have a very limited career.The field that was once the focus of their lives becomes something they have little or no involvement in.As a result，they’ll have a feeling of worthlessness and a lack of control. 38 The truth is quite simple：they have been so far removed from it for so long.
In spite of these disadvantages，there is greater ambition than ever among young people to achieve that status.They are not satisfied with just making a living—they want to be rich and famous.Globally，more and more TV shows provide talent competitions where winners can achieve their goals in just a few weeks or months. 39 They unrealistically believe that this lifestyle is easily obtained and leads to great satisfaction.
While many people argue that there is nothing wrong with having such ambitions，others feel that this trend will finally lead to dissatisfaction as more and more people are unable to reach their goals. 40 That means they ignore the simple fact that great effort is needed before success.As a result，many people won’t realize their childhood dreams，which could have a negative effect on their happiness.
A．The younger generation don’t favor these professions any more.
B．In many ways this has been brought about by the celebrity culture.
C．Unfortunately，they do not always have a positive effect on people’s life.
D．Besides，it can be difficult for them to adapt back to a normal everyday life.
E．People no longer have a sense of satisfaction once their goals have been achieved.
F．This quick way of gaining wealth and fame creates a celebrity culture among people.
G．The reason is that they don’t realize it takes talent and hard work to be rich and famous.

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。
Two men，both seriously ill，shared the same hospital room.One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon.His bed was next to the only window of the room.The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.The men talked for hours on end.They spoke of their wives and families，their homes，their jobs，their experiences in the army，and where they had been on vacation.Every afternoon，when the man in the bed by the window could sit up，he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.The man in the other bed began to live for those one-hour periods when his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activities and colors of the world outside.
The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake.Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats.Young lovers walked arm in arm among flowers of every color.Grand old trees made everything around more attractive，and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.As the man by the window described all these in great detail，the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene.One warm afternoon，the man by the window described a parade passing by.Although the other man couldn’t hear the band，he could see it in his mind’s eye as the gentleman by the window pictured it with descriptive words.
Days and weeks passed.One morning，the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window，who had died peacefully in his sleep.She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.As soon as it seemed appropriate，the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window.The nurse was happy to make the switch，and after making sure he was comfortable，she left him alone.Finally，he would have the joy of seeing it for himself.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
Slowly and painfully，he made his greatest possible efforts to look out of the window beside the bed.
“The man was blind and could not even see the wall.Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you，”the nurse answered.
参考范文
Slowly and painfully，he made his greatest possible efforts to look out of the window beside the bed.When eagerly looking out of the window，he was frozen with his mouth open wide at the sight of the wall.Yes，he could see nothing but a blank wall.He couldn’t believe his eyes，wondering what had happened.Gradually，he calmed down and lost himself in thought.Sitting there alone，he wondered why the former roommate spent time describing the lively scenes during the one-hour periods.After a while，the nurse came in to take his temperature.“Miss，my former roommate pictured wonderful things outside the window to me every time，when he sat up and looked out of the window.But in fact there is only a wall outside.I just can’t understand why he did so，” the man asked.
“The man was blind and could not even see the wall.Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you，” the nurse answered.He was again shocked and suddenly enlightened，feeling deeply moved.Yes，he realized he had actually lived for those periods！He remembered how much he enjoyed the happy moments his roommate brought him，which rid him of the dark clouds in his life.He felt grateful for his roommate’s special encouragement.There is great happiness in making others happy，despite our own situations.Shared grief is half the sorrow，but happiness when shared，is doubled.Never was there another moment when he knew so clearly what he can do to help the people around him.
