Cedar Creek Treehouse
Cedar Creek Treehouse is very high. About 15m above ground, it is wrapped around the trunk of an enormous 200-year-old red cedar tree. The treehouse is the brainchild of Bill Compher, who has created this special building at the border between Mount Rainier National Park and the Gifford Pinchot National Forest in Washington.
Access is along a 25m-long suspension bridge, then up a five-story stairway whose fourth floor is a glass observation area, where you can swing in a hammock (吊床) and enjoy the mountain views. On the fifth floor, the treehouse is divided into two levels: from the entrance there’s a surprisingly spacious living room, kitchen, bathroom and sunroom, while upstairs there are two double beds and skylights so you can take in the night sky.
But if this isn’t enough of a bird’s-eye-view, you can climb up a separate 30m stairway, walk across another suspension bridge to a glass observatory and admire the 360-degree views of the forest. But this is not for everyone. “Climbing an 85-foot staircase, walking a 45-foot-long suspension bridge to a treehouse observatory 100 feet in the sky... that takes a special kind of person.” wrote Compher on his website.
Need to know: Kids under 7 are not allowed inside the treehouse. Rates are $250 for two people per night, and $25 for each additional guest.
1. What can a guest do on the fifth floor?
A. Cook some food. B. Rest in a hammock.
C. Stay in a glass observatory. D. Walk on a suspension bridge.
2. How much is it for a couple with their 9-year-old twins to stay overnight at Cedar Creek?
A. $275. B. $300. C. $500. D. $550.
3. This passage is probably a(n) ________.
A. advertisement B. guidebook C. instruction D. diary
【答案】1. A 2. B 3. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了雪松溪树屋，包括其地理位置、由来、风景等。

In 1972, my mother announced that we’d spend that summer in Europe. In Rome, we stayed at a fancy hotel with rooms overlooking the Grand Canal. On many mornings, our breakfast arrived on rolling tables. Mum insisted I tip the waiters and make the dinner reservations. “How?” I asked. “Read guidebooks, and ask local people,” she instructed.
One day, we took a train to Paris. After pulling into Gare de Lyon, I waited in the taxi while my mother helped a lady get her next train to Nimes. “Why did you have to do that?” I complained. “When you become a traveler, you help those who need you in the same way you hope others will help you,” she said.
In Paris, I finally got to test a theory I’d formed as a 9-year-old while reading a book about the lives of the French. The author’s vivid descriptions of their meals led me to conclude that France was a country where everything was delicious. Very quickly, this turned out to be true. The croque monsieur I had when we lunched in a café was the most amazing sandwich I’d ever had. Four days later, we reached England. My mother suggested having breakfast in a café. When we sat down at the table over fresh bread rolls and hot chocolates, I couldn’t eat. Somehow, I promised myself that I’d have to find my way back to Paris.
In 1986, I moved to France, where I’ve lived ever since, mostly writing about food. My late mother eventually took pride in my career. “I guess it was that trip to Europe,” she’d say with a knowing smile.
4. What can be inferred about the author’s mum from Paragraph 1?
A. She was very particular over hotels.
B. She felt confused about the rules of tipping.
C. She put the author in charge on many occasions.
D. She was eager to make friends with local people.
5. What lesson did the author learn from Mom in Paris?
A. Travel well when you still can. B. Chance favors the prepared mind.
C. Treat others the way you want to be treated. D. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
6. What belief did the author hold about France before his visit to the country?
A. There were many great authors.
B. All the food there would taste great.
C. The lives of the French centered on eating.
D. Sandwiches stood out among all French food.
7. How did the trip to Europe impact the author?
A. It directed him to his future career.
B. It helped him make friends with locals.
C. It improved the mother-son relationship.
D. It changed his attitude towards travelling.
【答案】4. C 5. C 6. B 7. A

Sitting around doing nothing used to seem like one of the safest activities possible. Then a few years ago scientists discovered that sitting all day causes many metabolic(新陈代谢的) changes that together increase your odds of meeting an early end. Even regular workouts didn’t prevent the ill effects of having your bottom in a chair all workday. Suddenly, sitting became public health enemy number one.
New research offers a hopeful answer to this question, finding that tiny bursts of intense activity are enough to protect your body from the worst effects of your couch potato lifestyle. The study, which was conducted by researchers at the University of Texas at Austin closely observed eight young, healthy volunteers as they sat around. On the first day of the experiment they simply sat for six hours. On the second day they got up from their lazing each hour and engaged in five rounds of four seconds of intense exercise on a specialized exercise bike.
Twenty seconds of total exercise an hour sounds like nothing but the data showed it made a big difference to the subjects’ bodies. The next day they burned more fat and showed lower levels of triglycerides(甘油三酸酯) in their blood. In short, they didn’t exhibit the usual ill effects of having sat all day.
And while the research used a special type of bike developed by sports scientists, the researchers feel similar results are obtainable with everyday home exercise equipment. However, you may have to work for a few more seconds to reach the same level of intensity, depending on what type of exercise you choose.
The research still offers an actionable takeaway for business owners and others who are concerned about how much sitting they’ve been doing all day long. “When you find yourself sitting for most of the day, try to rise frequently and move, preferably intensely, as often during the day as possible and for as many seconds as you can manage,” explains wellness writer Gretchen Reynolds in The New York Times.
8. What was the focus of the discovery made a few years ago?
A. The causes of early death. B. The safest modern-day activities.
C. The benefits of regular workouts. D. The harmful effects of inactivity.
9. How did the researchers study the volunteers?
A. By observing their usual lifestyle.
B. By testing the triglycerides in their diets.
C. By comparing their physical conditions over two days.
D By asking them to ride a specially-designed bike for two days.
10. What do the research results suggest?
A. The health benefits of biking have long been ignored.
B. Interrupting sitting with short intense exercise is helpful.
C. Everyday home exercise equipment is worth investing in.
D. Getting the heart pumping to its maximum quickly is bad.
11. What’s the author’s intention of quoting the remarks of Reynolds?
A. To express a concern. B. To provide a comment.
C. To offer an example. D. To make a suggestion.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍用短时间的高强度运动来中断久坐，能减少久坐对健康的危害。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Then a few years ago scientists discovered that sitting all day causes many metabolic(新陈代谢的) changes that together increase your odds of meeting an early end. Even regular workouts didn’t prevent the ill effects of having your bottom in a chair all workday.(几年前，科学家们发现，整天坐着会导致许多代谢变化，这些变化加在一起会增加你早死的几率。即使是有规律的锻炼也不能防止整天坐在椅子上的不良影响)”可知，几年前的那个研究发现是久坐所导致的严重后果。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The study, which was conducted by researchers at the University of Texas at Austin closely observed eight young, healthy volunteers as they sat around. On the first day of the experiment they simply sat for six hours. On the second day they got up from their lazing each hour and engaged in five rounds of four seconds of intense exercise on a specialized exercise bike.(这项研究是由德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的研究人员进行的，他们在8名年轻健康的志愿者坐着的时候仔细观察他们。在实验的第一天，他们只是坐了六个小时。第二天，他们从慵懒中起床，在一辆专门的健身自行车上进行五轮每4秒的高强度锻炼)”可知，研究人员主要是观察对比两天中志愿者的身体状况。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Twenty seconds of total exercise an hour sounds like nothing, but the data showed it made a big difference to the subjects’ bodies. The next day they burned more fat and showed lower levels of triglycerides(甘油三酸酯) in their blood. In short, they didn’t exhibit the usual ill effects of having sat all day.(每小时20秒的运动听起来没什么，但数据显示，这对受试者的身体产生了很大的影响。第二天，他们燃烧了更多的脂肪，血液中的甘油三酯水平也降低了。简而言之，他们没有表现出整天坐着的不良反应)”可知，该研究结果表明用短时间的高强度运动来中断久坐是有帮助的。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“The research still offers an actionable takeaway for business owners and others who are concerned about how much sitting they’ve been doing all day long.(这项研究仍然为企业主和其他关心自己一天坐了多长时间的人提供了一个可行的建议)”可知，这项研究给久坐的人提出了建议，其中名词takeaway暗指可以借鉴的方法。下面引用Reynolds的话“When you find yourself sitting for most of the day, try to rise frequently and move, preferably intensely, as often during the day as possible and for as many seconds as you can manage(当你发现自己一天中大部分时间都在坐着的时候，试着经常站起来活动活动，最好是剧烈活动，白天尽可能多，每次活动的时间越长越好)”是举例具体的建议。故选D项。
D
In the world of online shopping, many online purchases are based on careful consideration of star ratings and product reviews left by complete strangers. But should you trust customer reviews when deciding what to purchase? And do these mysterious reviewers have your best interests in mind? Here’s what you need to know.
Consumers today are skeptical, says Zach Pardes at review platform Trustpilot. “We live in a time when trust is completely under attack,” Pardes says. “So people are reading reviews and consuming them more than ever before, but I think there is a healthy skepticism at times of what they’re reading. Fake(假的) reviews do exist. Fake reviews include, but aren’t limited to, robot-generated reviews and reviews that are influenced by the seller.”
Of course, not all user reviews you read online are fake. High-quality reviews are a valuable tool when making a variety of purchases. Pardes says Trustpilot features a team in place to detect and remove fake reviews. Perhaps one of the best-known review websites is Yelp. Yelp takes measures to ensure “high-quality content,” says Kathleen Liu, a company spokesperson. That includes allowing Yelp’s community of business owners and users to flag content that may go against the site’s terms of service.
Since user reviews do provide helpful information, review as a whole shouldn’t be repudiated. But how can you tell the difference between what’s real and what’s not? It’s close to impossible for the everyday consumer. But if you conduct your investigation carefully, you can make an informed purchase.
Check more than one review source. Pardes advises consumers to read reviews on multiple platforms. “If you’re about to book a $10,000 vacation, you’d never rely only on the photos and the reviews posted by that hotel’s marketing team,” he says. “You are going to want to use a third-party independent resource.” Read more than a handful of reviews. Pardes says there is “safety in numbers.” Question perfection. Pardes says consumers shouldn’t trust reviews that show only five stars. “Nobody’s perfect so you can’t possibly have a perfect five-star review in every single category of your business.” he says.
12. What does Pardes imply about consumers in Paragraph2?
A. They are often influenced by sellers.
B. They must have long lost trust in sellers.
C. They often fail to recognize fake reviews.
D. They should be cautious of product reviews now.
13. What do Yelp and Trustpilot have in common?
A. Both aim to offer real user reviews.
B. Both produce robot-generated reviews.
C. Both hire professionals to rate companies.
D. Both serve mainly like-minded business owners.
14. What does the underlined word “repudiated” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Overestimated. B. Dismissed. C. Hidden. D. Blamed.
15. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. How to get the most out of online reviews. B. The significance of informed purchases.
C. Where to look for reliable reviews. D. The truth behind five-star ratings.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了在网上购物的世界里，许多网上购物都是基于对完全陌生的人留下的星级评价和产品评论的仔细考虑。但是当你决定买什么的时候，你应该相信顾客的评价吗？这些神秘的评论者是否考虑到你的最大利益？文章给出了建议和解释。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Consumers today are skeptical, says Zach Pardes at review platform Trustpilot. “We live in a time when trust is completely under attack,” Pardes says. “So people are reading reviews and consuming them more than ever before, but I think there is a healthy skepticism at times of what they’re reading. Fake(假的) reviews do exist. Fake reviews include, but aren’t limited to, robot-generated reviews and reviews that are influenced by the seller. ””（评论平台Trustpilot的扎克•帕迪斯(Zach Pardes)表示，如今的消费者对此持怀疑态度。“我们生活在一个信任完全受到攻击的时代，”Pardes说。“所以人们比以往任何时候都更多地阅读和消费评论，但我认为有时他们对所读的东西有一种健康的怀疑态度。虚假评论确实存在。虚假评论包括但不限于机器人生成的评论和受卖家影响的评论。”）可推知，在第二段中，Pardes暗示了消费者现在应该对产品评论保持谨慎的态度。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“High-quality reviews are a valuable tool when making a variety of purchases. Pardes says Trustpilot features a team in place to detect and remove fake reviews. Perhaps one of the best-known review websites is Yelp. Yelp takes measures to ensure “high-quality content,” says Kathleen Liu, a company spokesperson.”（高质量的评论是一个有价值的工具。Pardes说Trustpilot有一个团队来检测和删除虚假评论。也许最著名的评论网站之一是Yelp。Yelp公司发言人Kathleen Liu表示，该公司采取措施确保“高质量的内容”。）可知，Yelp和Trustpilot的共同之处是两者都旨在提供真实的用户评论。故选A项。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词句子中“Since user reviews do provide helpful information,”（因为用户评论确实提供了有用的信息）可推知，此处为因为用户评论确实提供了有用的信息，所以评论作为一个整体不应该被否定。故可猜测划线单词repudiated为“拒绝，否定”的意思，结合选项B项Dismissed“驳回，不理会”意思相近。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Check more than one review source. Pardes advises consumers to read reviews on multiple platforms. “If you’re about to book a $10,000 vacation, you’d never rely only on the photos and the reviews posted by that hotel’s marketing team,” he says. “You are going to want to use a third-party independent resource.” Read more than a handful of reviews. Pardes says there is “safety in numbers.” Question perfection. Pardes says consumers shouldn’t trust reviews that show only five stars. “Nobody’s perfect so you can’t possibly have a perfect five-star review in every single category of your business.” he says”（检查多个评审源。Pardes建议消费者阅读多个平台上的评论。他说:“如果你打算花1万美元预订一次度假，你绝对不会只依赖酒店营销团队发布的照片和评论。”“你会想要使用第三方独立资源。”多读一些评论。帕德斯说，“人多安全”。完美的问题。Pardes说，消费者不应该相信只有5颗星的评论。“没有人是完美的，所以你不可能在你的业务的每一个类别中都获得完美的五星级评价。他说。）可知，最后一段主要讲的是如何最大限度地利用在线评论。故选A项。

But in many ways that’s how I see teaching—like a garden.(但在很多方面，这就是我对教学的看法——就像一座花园)符合语境，教孩子们种植物，而作者认为教学就像种植物一样。下文是把孩子比作种子，用心照顾，看护他们成长。故选F项。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个在中国很多人都不熟悉的节日——寒食节。
【36题详解】
考查名词。句意：中国传统节日是中国文化的重要组成部分，我们有责任保护和维护它们。根据空前的形容词性物主代词可知，空处为名词形式作表语，此处表示一个责任，为单数。故填responsibility。
【37题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意：寒食节有2600多年的历史，是中国唯一一个以食物命名的传统节日，也被称为寒食节，因为人们在这一天只允许吃冷的食物。固定搭配：be named after，意为“以……命名”。故填after。
【38题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：寒食通常在阳历4月3日左右，比清明节早一到两天。这里为本句谓语动词，根据上下文可知，本句为一般现在时；主语为Hanshi，单数，所以谓语用第三人称单数形式。故填falls。
【39题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：在中国大部分地区，由于人们储存的易燃物质和春雷，在干燥的早春很容易发生火灾。空处指的是“易燃物质”，用复数形式。故填substances。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：从扑灭旧火到燃烧木头获得新火之间的间隔从3天、5天或7天不等。非谓语动词担当目的状语，用动词的不定式形式。故填to obtain。
【41题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：在间隔日，禁止在家庭中生火。这里本句谓语动词，根据时间状语“during the gap days”可知，本句为一般过去时；主语为fires，复数，和动词prohibit之间为被动关系，所以用被动语态。故填were prohibited。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意：因此，人们会吃他们之前准备好的东西，即冷食，或者中国的寒食。修饰动词prepared用副词形式，故填previously。
【43题详解】
考查表语从句。句意：寒食节就是这样逐渐形成的。这里为表语从句的连接词，表语从句中缺少方式状语，用how。故填how。
【44题详解】
考查代词。句意：由于寒食节比清明节早一到两天，它们逐渐结合在一起。代指上文出现的“the Hanshi Festival”和“the Qingming Festival”，为两个节日，担当主语，用they。故填they。
【45题详解】
考查时态。句意：宋代以后，冷食不再是这一天的必需品，清明逐渐取代了寒食的民间活动，成为冷食的主要节日。这里为本句谓语动词，根据上文可知，本句为一般过去时。故填took。

47. 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。
Mrs. Li found that parenting her three children was challenging, nothing was ever clean and there’s not enough time for her in the day to do everything.
She spent her days rushing from task to task, cleaning and making sure her children had all they needed. She constantly organized their living room, which was suddenly full of toys. Cooking and cleaning after meals and snacks seemed to take half of her day. She hardly ever sat; something always needed to be done.
One day she was back home. She had a deadline for a huge project at work, and she was really feeling the pressure. When she’d picked up her children from school that afternoon, she’d popped into the grocery store to buy a rotisserie chicken (烤鸡肉) for dinner. She figured that would buy her an extra hour to work on her project since she wouldn’t have to cook that night.
Then, it was 6:00 p.m., and she was typing away, making good progress. Her kids were downstairs watching TV. Her 7-year-old son, Nathan, came into the room and said, “Mom, I’m getting hungry. Can you warm up the chicken now?”
“In a little bit,” she answered without looking up from the computer. “I’m trying to work.”
Ten minutes later, her older son, Jordan, came in to tell her that he too was hungry, and she needed to warm up the chicken. “I’ll do it as soon as I’m at a stopping point,” she said.
Fifteen minutes after that, her fifteen-year-old daughter, Julia, came in trying to make the same request but when she saw her mother was still busy working, she quietly backed out and closed the door behind her. She decided to help her mother.

【答案】One possible version:
In the kitchen, Julia looked at her brothers. “Mum is busy working now. Let’s make the dinner together to help Mum, Ok?” The two boys nodded hard. Julia asked Jordan to heat the chicken. Jordan took out the chicken from the refrigerator, put it in a plate, then put the chicken into the micro-wave oven to heat it. Julia made some toasts and Nathan helped set the table. Ten minutes later, the chicken and toasts were ready and were laid on the table. The good smell made the kids’ mouths water but they decided to bring the dinner to Mum first. They three walked into the room quietly, with Jordan holding the food in his hands.
Mrs Li looked up and found the kids were holding a plate filled with food. After a short silence, she came to understand what they did. She was very happy and moved, asking “You made this, didn’t you?” “Yes!” The three kids shouted excitedly in chorus. “Mum, you work so hard. It is our duty to share the housework,” Julia said. Nathan also promised to put away the toys in the room from then on. Looking at the three kids, Mrs Li felt relieved that the kids had grown up. She hugged them tightly, saying that she had never eaten a more delicious dinner than this. In an instant, the room was filled with the smell of chicken and the warmth of love.
