Han Tianheng picked up a carving knife at the age of 6 and never put it down. Today, the 79-year-old artist, one of China’s most respected living masters of seal carving(印章雕刻), calligraphy and Chinese painting, still remembers the incident the first time he held a knife in his hand．
“I cut my thumb badly and was horrified by the bloody sight,” he said, adding that his mother applied ashes because she couldn’t afford to take him to a hospital. “The cut left a scar, which is still clear today.”
An eye for an eye and blood for blood, the incident didn’t set him back. Instead, it aroused his passion for the ancient art form. He was determined to pursue a path that would lead to a career in seal carving.
The journey of art exploration was not smooth for the young man in his quest for excellence, and his seal works were harshly criticized by a famous old painter.
Most would have crumbled under the criticism, not Han. It made him even more determined. After six months’ hard work, he visited the painter again．
“This time, he asked me to carve a seal for him. This was positive affirmation.” Han said. “Praise and criticism are what an artist should learn to handle all his life. Praise is candy and criticism is medicine. We can live without candy, but cannot live without medicine when ill.”
Han rose to fame during the early 1960s famous for bird and insect seal art. Han’s seals are an essential ending part on the paintings of a long list of well-established artists．
“A seal for a good painting is like the buttons for an haute couture(高档女子时装). An experienced tailor always knows how to choose buttons that matches the whole style,” Han said.
His seals are full of variety—grand and solemn(庄重的) for Liu Haisu’s paintings, light and vivid for Lu Yanshao’s, graceful and gentle for Xie Zhiliu’s.
“A good seal carver should keep his own style, and at the same time go well with the painting’s style.” he said.
4、What influence did the incident have on Han when he was six?
A.He got injured very seriously. B. It aroused his interest in seal carving.
C. He learned how to use a knife. D. It helped him learn how hard life was.
5、Which best describes Han’s journey of art exploration?
A.Smooth and fruitful. B. Inspiring and lucky.
C. Boring but worthwhile. D. Tough but rewarding.
6、In Han’s opinion, what do an experienced tailor and a good seal carver share?
A.The huge respect they earn.
B.The targeted customers they serve.
C.The flexibility they display at work.
D.The efforts they have to make to succeed.
7、In which section of a newspaper does this text most probably appear?
A.Education. B. People. C. Entertainment. D. Events.
The Government’s sugar tax on soft drinks has brought in half as much money as Ministers first predicted it would generate, the first official data on the policy has shown.
First announced in April, 2016, the tax which applies to soft drinks containing more than 5g of sugar per 100ml, was introduced to help reduce childhood obesity(肥胖). It is believed that today’s children and teenagers are consuming three times the recommended level of sugar, putting them at a higher risk of the disease.
Initially the sugar tax was expected to make £520m a year for the Treasury. However, data of the first six months showed it would make less than half this amount. At present it is expected to generate £240m for the year ending in April 2019, which will go to school sports.
It comes after more than half of soft drinks sold in shops have had their sugar levels cut by manufacturers(制造商) so they can avoid paying the tax. Drinks now contain 45 million fewer kilos of sugar as a result of manufacturers’ efforts to avoid the charge, according to Treasury figures. Since April drinks companies have been forced to pay between 18p and 24p for every litre of sugary drink they produce or import, depending on the sugar content.
However, some high sugar brands, like Classic Coca Cola, have accepted the sugar tax and are refusing to change for fear of upsetting consumers. Fruit juices, milk-based drinks and most alcoholic drinks are free of the tax, as are small companies manufacturing fewer than 1m litres per year.
Today’s figures, according to one government official, show the positive influence the sugar tax is having by raising millions of pounds for sports facilities(设施) and healthier eating in schools. Helping the next generation to have a healthy and active childhood is of great importance, and the industry is playing its part.
8、Why was the sugar tax introduced?
A.To protect children’s health. B.To improve the quality of drinks.
C.To collect money for schools. D.To encourage research in education.
9、How did some drinks companies respond to the sugar tax?
A.They turned to overseas markets.
B.They raised the prices of their products.
C.They cut down on their production.
D.They reduced their products’ sugar content.
10、From which of the following is the sugar tax collected?
A.Classic Coke. B. Milk-based drinks.
C. Fruit juices. D. Most alcoholic drinks.
11、What can be inferred about the adoption of the sugar tax policy?
A.It is a short-sighted decision. B. It is a success story.
C. It benefits manufacturers. D. It upsets customers.
In my everyday life, I am on an ongoing journey to figure out different ways to reduce my carbon footprint on the planet. A carbon footprint is the measure of influence our activities have on the environment, in particular climate change. It is calculated by the amount of greenhouse gas we produce in our daily lives. Fortunately, nowadays it is much easier to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices than, let’s say, 20 years ago. But one question has been on my mind a lot lately: is it better to buy new eco-friendly products or used traditionally produced goods?
After doing some research, I have decided that some things are better new and others are better used. Let me try to explain.
A carbon footprint is made up of two parts, the primary footprint and the secondary footprint. The primary footprint is a measure of our direct emissions(排放) of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the burning of fuels, including household energy consumption and transportation. The secondary footprint is a measure of the indirect CO2 emissions from the whole life cycle of products we use—those related to their production and breakdown.
Based on this understanding, we have a good deal of control and responsibility over our carbon footprint. Things like dishes, clothes and furniture fall into the “secondary footprint” group, so less is more and we can focus on finding used goods to avoid the added production. However, for the car and the other appliances(设备) that we need we can go with new, energy-saving models. I heard somewhere that electronics and appliances give off 90% of their carbon footprint after they leave the factory. So it seems most reasonable to go for the energy-saving models. The main concern here is the amount of energy that goes into the making of new products and whether or not that extra carbon is worth the footprint the product will make once it gets to you.
12、What do we know about the secondary carbon footprint?
A.It is related to our consumption of fuels.
B.It is made when we are buying the products.
C.It is less harmful than the primary carbon footprint.
D.It is counted as ours though not directly made by us.
13、Which of the following helps reduce our carbon footprint according to the author?
A.Using second-hand textbooks. B. Using old and expensive cars.
C. Buying new but cheap clothes. D. Buying new wooden furniture.
14、“The footprint” underlined in the last sentence refers to the CO2 produced in _____.
A.making the product. B. recycling the product.
C. using the product. D. transporting the product.
15、What is the text mainly about?
A.What appliances to buy to save energy.
B.What a carbon footprint means in our life.
C.How to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices.
D.How to identify different carbon footprints.
二、七选五
16、 You’ve seen other people flying kites watching their paper creations float up into the clouds on a windy day. ①_____ Kite flying isn’t hard, and it’s a lot of fun!
The first step is to get a kite and find a large, open area. Then wait for a nice windy day. ②_____ Otherwise, kites can get hung up on either of them. Parks with lots of grass and beaches are both great places to try kite flying.
If you have a friend to help you, have one person hold the kite while the other person holds the spool (线轴) of string. The one with the kite should hold it overhead in both hands and throw it lightly up into the wind. If the wind is strong enough, it will catch the kite and lift it up, pulling the string tight. This works well on windy days, but what if the wind isn’t strong enough to catch your kite? Then you need to let out some string and have your friend run with the kite behind him/her. ③_____
Once the wind catches your kite, start letting out the string, little by little. ④_____ It’s somewhere between fifty and a hundred feet overhead. Spread your legs to keep yourself firmly rooted to the ground, and hold the spool with both hands. If it flies too high, you can reel in(收卷) the string a little.
⑤_____ When the kite is close to the ground, have someone catch it so it doesn’t get torn or broken. Wind up the rest of your string and keep your kite safe until the next time you’re ready to fly it.
A.As you fly your kite, keep an eye on it.
B.To finish flying, reel in the kite slowly.
C.Are you ready to give it a try yourself?
D.Keep going till your kite is at the height you want.
E.With this added burst of speed, the kite should fly.
F.Keep flying your kite until you feel it’s safe in the wind again.
G.Your perfect location shouldn’t have any trees or power lines.

34、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。  
On a winter morning, we piled into our car and headed out to the county kennel (养狗 场), We were going to get a dog. I pressed my nose against the car window and wondered what he would be like. Would he shake hands, roll over and run after little animals in the woods? Each passing fence post drew me nearer to my dream dog.
As our family walked into the kennel, among the chaos and noise, silence caught my eye. He was sitting quietly and confidently in a corner cage. When I approached, he lifted one of his feet between the bars, and I touched it carefully. A handwritten sign at the top of his cage read, “Shepherd (牧羊犬)”. Ten minutes later, he was sitting in the back seat of our car.
“His name is Fritz,” my mother announced that night as we put a dog collar around his neck with our phone number and his name on it. Fritz adjusted quickly to life in his new home. Whenever guests arrived, he would run out to greet them. When we took our afternoon walks, he was a cheerful companion. The highlight of his day was when I came back, racing through the front door after school. He would slide through the entryway and then jump into my arms as if he had just won a great prize.
One Friday afternoon, my father declared that we were going out for the night. Each year we took a journey across the mountains to his hometown of Knoxville, Kentucky, for a day of sightseeing. As we loaded up the car, my father told me that the hotel where we would be staying did not allow dogs in. Therefore, Fritz wasn’t going with us.
As our car pulled away, Fritz watched from the edge of the yard with his tail waving quickly, as if to say, “Why are you leaving me alone?” Anyway, we set out. The next day when we came back home, it was already 6 pm.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;

Night fell, but there was no sign of Fritz.

16、答案：CGEDB
解析：①逻辑关系题。上文"You've seen other people flying kites, watching their paper creations float up into the clouds on a windy day.(你见过别人放风筝,看着他们的纸做的东西在刮风的日子飘上云霄。)"说你看别人放风筝,B项"Are you ready to give it a try yourself? (你准备好自己试一试了吗?)"问你想不想尝试,下文"Kite flying isn't hard and it's a lot of fun!(放风筝并不难,而且很有趣!)"告诉你放风筝并不难,三句话语意连贯,自然引出下文如何放风筝。故选C项。
②细节理解题。下文"Otherwise, kites can get hung up on either of them.(否则,风筝可能会挂在其中一个上面。)"中otherwise相当于一个否定条件句,上文中需出现条件句内容,同时根据指代关系,上文还需出现代词them的指代对象,F项"Your perfect location shouldn't have any trees or power lines.(你的完美位置不应该有任何树木或电线。)"满足以上两个条件,让语意完整,otherwise指"如果有树木或电线",them指代"树木或电线"。故选G项。
③逻辑关系题。根据上文"Then you need to let out some string and have your friend run with the kite behind him or her.(然后你需要放出一些线,让你的朋友带着风筝跑。)"讲需要朋友帮助助跑,风筝才能飞起来,E项"With this added burst of speed, the kite should fly.(随着速度的提高,风筝应该能飞了。)"承上启下,自然过渡。故选E项。
④逻辑关系题。根据指代关系,设空句应出现下文"It's somewhere between fifty and a hundred feet overhead.(它在头顶五十到一百英尺之间。)"中代词It指代对象,D项"Keep going till your kite is at the height you want.(一直放线,直到你的风筝到达你想要的高度。)"出现其指代对象"the height you want",上下文构成逻辑上指代关系。故选D项。
⑤段落大意题。通读全文可知,文章按放风筝这一活动的先后顺序展开,再根据下文"When the kite is close to the ground, have someone catch it so it doesn't get torn or broken.(当风筝接近地面时,让人抓住它,这样它就不会被撕裂或折断。)"可判定,末段主要讲如何结束放风筝,C项"To finish flying, reel in the kite slowly.(放完风筝后,慢慢地把风筝卷起来。)"作为段首句,开始讲如何结束放风筝。故选B项。

32、答案：①as②is celebrated③a④treatment⑤her⑥gradually⑦highlights⑧provides⑨accompanied⑩which
解析：①考查介词。句意:“三月三”是中国广西一个重要的传统节日,被称为“双三”。be known as"被称为;被认为是;以……著称"是固定搭配,as是介词,后常接名词作宾语。故填as。
②考查时态语态。句意:这一天是农历三月初三,广西的壮族、瑶族、侗族等少数民族都会庆祝这一天。and是并列连词,在此连接两个谓语,所以时态要与前一个谓语falls保持一致,即使用一般现在时,且要使用第三人称单数形式,celebrate与主语It是被动关系,所以要使用一般现在时的被动式。故填is celebrated。
③考查不定冠词。句意:人们认为三月节是为了纪念一个壮族歌手刘三姐而设立的。_____ singer of the Zhuang nationality与空前的Liu Sanjie是同位语关系,所以要用不定冠词a来表示“一个”的意思。故填a。
④考查名词。句意:然而,因为她唱的歌讽刺了富有的地主的残酷待遇,揭露了他们压榨人民的罪行,地主们对她恨之入骨。该空前有形容词cruel,所以该空应是名词,treat是动词,要转化为相应的名词。故填treatment。
⑤考查宾格代词。句意:然而,因为她唱的歌讽刺了富有的地主的残酷待遇,揭露了他们压榨人民的罪行,地主们对她恨之入骨。该空所在句是一个主谓宾结构的句子,hated是谓语,该空是宾语,所以要用宾格代词。故填her。
⑥考查副词。句意:然后,逐渐地,歌咏节变成了现在的三月节(双三节)。该空位于句首,是插入语,要使用副词,gradual是形容词要转化为相应的副词。故填gradually。
⑦考查可数名词的复数。句意:“歌咏节"是节日的亮点之一。该空是“one of the+名词”结构中的一部分,意思是“……之一”,介词of后要用可数名词的复数形式。故填highlights。
⑧考查时态。句意:壮族人以爱唱歌而闻名,而这个节日为人们提供了一个展示他们歌唱技能的机会。provide sth for sb意思是“为某人提供某物”,该句主语是the festival,是单数,时态是一般现在时,所以谓语provide要使用第三人称单数形式。故填provides。
⑨考查过去分词。句意:成群的歌手在芦笙(一种传统的芦笙)等乐器的伴奏下表演传统的壮族歌曲。该空所在处在句中是后置定语,动词accompany与逻辑主语traditional Zhuang songs是动宾关系,要用过去分词。故填accompanied。
⑩考查定语从句引导词。句意:一些优秀的歌手通过唱歌找到了他们的真爱,这使得一年一度的歌唱节成为了歌曲比赛和择偶活动。该空所在处是非限定性定语从句,从句缺主语,要用关系代词which来引导,并指代前面提到的事。故填which。

34、答案：
Night fell but there was still no sign of Fritz. We went from neighbor to neighbor, house to house. Each shake of the head drove me to despair. "Please, bring Fritz home safe," I wished lying in bed that night. But a week passed without him. Each afternoon I would rush out of school and run all the way home to ask if there was any news of Fritz. But when I burst through the door and into the house, I would be greeted only by silence and my mother's sad smile.
Two weeks later, a call from a man brought us the great news. The man found the hungry and weak Fritz on the street and later got our phone number from the tag on him. Immediately, my father and I were on the way to fetching Fritz. The moment I climbed out of the car, Fritz ran toward me like a wild pig. He slipped and quickly got up and slipped again before he regained his balance and jumped into my arms. I held him tightly as he licked my face.
