Eugene O’Neill, who was born in 1888, in New York, was a leading American drama writer and the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1936. His father was a successful touring actor. Because of that, Eugene spent his early childhood in hotels, on trains, and backstage. Although later in his life he grew to hate his father for not giving him security in his early years and a loving and comfortable family, he had the theater in his blood.
As a student, O’Neill went to boarding schools but spent the summers in a moderate house his family owned. He left Princeton University in 1907, only about one year after he entered it, to start what he later called his real education in “life experience”. At the age of 24, he was hired as a reporter and poetry column writer for the Net London Telegraph, where he worked for only a few months.
O’Neill didn’t cut a figure in playwriting until the summer of 1916, when he was in a peaceful village of Provincetown. Massachusetts, where some young writers and artists had founded an experimental theater. Before that, he had written awkward melodramas (情节剧) that were hardly accepted by the mainstream of American theater. While O’Neill was only one of those whose plays were produced by the theater, he led the group to success because of his contribution within the next few years. Between 1916 and 1920, the theater produced all of O’Neill’s one-act sea plays. By the time his first full-length play, Beyond the Horizon, was produced on Broadway on February 2,1920, at the Morosco Theater, the young playwright already had a small reputation.
Theater critics spoke highly of Beyond the Horizon for its tragic realism. The play brought O’Neill more public attention, as well as his first Pulitzer Prize, apart from which he won another three for Anna Christie, Strange Interlude, and Long Day’s Journey Into Night. Over the next two decades. O’Neill continued to gain reputation nationally and globally. He became the most widely translated and produced dramatist after Shakespeare and Bernard Shaw.
24. What might inspire O’Neill’s passion for theater?
A. His father’s career. B. The support of his family.
C. Hotel rooms he had lived in D. Stories he had heard on trains.
25. Why did O’Neill drop out of Princeton University?
A. He didn’t want to study in a boarding school.
B. He wanted to receive real education from life.
C. He got a job from the Nee London Telegraph.
D. He was unsatisfied with the quality of university education.
26. What does the underlined phrase “cut a figure” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Show interest. B. Hold a degree.
C. Attract attention. D. Receive an award.
27. What can we learn about O’Neill’s Beyond the Horizon?
A. It enhanced his reputation in the field of theater.
B. It drew theater critics’ attention to tragic realism.
C. It inspired him to compose another three dramas.
D. It made him the most widely translated and produced dramatist.
C
An Ontario teen is making waves by turning old fishing gear into new treasures. Since last year, Natalie, 15, has been taking lost or thrown — away fishing nets and rope and transforming them into bracelets, rope art, mats, baskets and necklaces.
Last year, Natalie was working on an assignment for her science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) class. As part of the assignment, she learned about “ghost nets”, which are fishing nets that have been left or lost in the ocean by people who fish.
“They have huge effects on our environment. They can kill coral reefs and many animals,” said Natalie. “46 percent of the Pacific garbage is ghost gear.” The Great Pacific Garbage is a huge collection of trash floating in the Pacific Ocean between Hawaii and California.
Natalie told her mom she wanted to do something to help. She got in touch with a handful of charities, including the Sea Protection Society and Coastal Action.
After getting some shipments of ghost nets and rope from those organizations, Natalie, with the help of her family, started turning the discarded gear into new artworks. “We've made bracelets, rope art, mats, baskets, and we've made necklaces, which also use beach glass in them,” she said. Natalie then started selling the artworks online, the crafty buying and selling website.
She donated all her profits-minus a small sum of change to cover supplies — to the charities that donated fishing supplies to her. She's also been donating all the income from her non-profit business, called Nautical Waters, to charity. Natalie said she hoped to continue her passion for ocean life, with plans to study marine biology in university.
28. How did Natalie help with ghost nets?
A. By turning them into artworks. B. By asking support from her mother.
C. By collecting money from charities. D. By selling ghost nets at a good price.
29. What made Natalie decide to do something with ghost nets?
A. To collect supplies for the artworks.
B. To prepare for her study in university.
C. To protect coral reefs and marine animals.
D. To complete an assignment for her STEM class.
30. What docs the underlined word “discarded” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A. Polluted. B. Rare. C. Waste. D. Discovered.
31. What is the best title for the text.
A. Ghost Nets Ready for Sale B. Charities Make a Big Difference
C. Natalie's Passion for Ocean Treasures D. Teen Turns Old Fishing Nets into Artworks
D
The ISS orbits Earth at an average of 250 miles from the surface of Earth and completes 15.5 circles per day, once every 92 minutes. In other words, the astronauts see the sunrise and sunset 16 times every day!
The station is inhabited by astronauts conducting research in various fields, while also using it as an observatory to explore Earth and outer space. It is also intended to be a transportation center for spacecraft that are bound for the Moon, Mars and other interplanetary voyages.
The crew is not only responsible for the scientific experimentation and research being conducted onboard, but also the upkeep and maintenance of the vessel, a vessel that is continuously in motion and exposed to the worst possible elements. Such conditions are significant area of study for researchers.
The most common effect of space is the initial contact — getting used to such an alien environment. Astronauts are often seen to display anxiety or depression as they adjust to the novelty of space, according to post-psychiatric screenings of astronauts. Other causes of stress are the high pressure of work while being under frequent public observation, being away from home and family, and missing important events.
Sleep is another major factor that affects the mood and efficiency of the astronauts. Due to the irregularity in life and the constant rotation (转动) of sunrise and sunset, the circadian rhythm (生理节律) of the astronauts goes completely haywire, resulting in poor quality of sleep. The shuttle itself is noisy, with essential equipment always in operation to sustain the vessel. Half of all the astronauts onboard rely on sleeping pills to get some rest and manage to get an average 2 hours less sleep than when they’re back on Earth. Sleep is so critical for functionality that 50% of all medicines taken by astronauts in orbit is to help them sleep better. Low-Earth Orbit living is a restless endeavor, indeed.
32. Which of the following is most likely to affect the astronauts’ mood?
A. Scientific experiments onboard. B. Observation of outer space.
C. Interplanetary voyages. D. Exposure to extreme conditions.
33. Which of the following can best explain the underlined phrase in the last paragraph?
A. Return to normal. B. Become out of control.
C. Go unnoticed. D. Remain unchanged.
34. How can we describe the astronauts’ life in the ISS?
A. Highly-pressured. B. Trouble-free.
C. Safe and sound. D. Quiet and beautiful.
35. What is mainly discussed in the passage?
A. The functions of the ISS. B. The missions of the astronauts.
C. The mental challenges of living in the ISS. D. The splendid view of the space.

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。
When school was over, the day was fading and it started to drizzle(毛毛雨). I stood at the school gate, with a loaded backpack on my shoulders. It was Friday again: a weekend of joy with unlimited sleeping hours and dinner courses specially made to my taste, a weekend at home. I waved goodbye to my friends as they jumped into their fathers’ warm and comfortable cars. Curiously, this gave rise to a disturbing feeling in me. It was not exactly what they called jealousy, but something like dismay(沮丧). I knew all I could expect was an old bike Mom would ride along on, with the badly-oiled chain creaking(嘎吱作响) against the wheel to announce her arrival.
Every Friday when Mom came to pick me up for the weekend, it was a moment full of great expectation and great unease. I always felt my face burning as we rode our way in and out of the numerous cars and saw my friends’ faces sticking out of the car windows. It was like stepping into a ballroom with beautifully dressed ladies and finding yourself in a smelly T-shirt.
To tell you the truth, Mom is quite a headache once in a while. She just looks a homely middle-aged housewife. Being a practitioner of DIY, she knits most of my sweaters, chiefly in old styles. Whenever caught by some curious classmates asking what brand my sweaters are, I’d force a smile and reply in a half joking manner: homemade.
I couldn’t remember when I started to find her such an embarrassment. As a little boy, I relied on her so much. She had been working at home, cooking in the kitchen, knitting by the lamp or riding across town to buy me a book I badly needed. It had always been much fun riding with mom. But just now there seemed to be something standing between us, something that made her so strange to me and me to her.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Today she showed up in a raincoat.

Mom tried to cover me with the back of the raincoat again as a storm set in.

34. 推理判断题。根据第三段“The crew is not only responsible for the scientific experimentation and research being conducted onboard, but also the upkeep and maintenance of the vessel (成员们不仅要负责在飞机上进行的科学实验和研究，还要负责飞机的维护和保养)”及第四段中“The most common effect of space is the initial contact — getting used to such an alien environment.(太空最常见的影响是最初的接触——习惯这样一个陌生的环境)”和“Other causes of stress are the high pressure of work while being under frequent public observation, being away from home and family, and missing important events.(其他造成压力的原因还包括工作压力大、经常被公众关注、远离家乡和家人、错过重要活动等)”可知，国际空间站的宇航员要适应一个全新环境，还要做各种实验和研究，压力是很大的。故选A。
35. 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是最后两段内容可知，本文主要讲述在国际空间站生活对宇航员精神上的挑战，故选C。
【答案】36-40 FBECG
【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要就乘坐飞机旅行说明了一些建议。
36. 根据后文“Package gifts in gift bags or gift boxes so you don’t have to re-wrap any presents later on. If you’re planning on giving someone a snow globe, just make sure that it contains less than 3.4 ounces of liquid.（用礼品袋或礼品盒包装礼物，这样以后就不用重新包装礼物了。如果你打算送别人一个雪花玻璃球，只要确保它的容量小于3.4盎司的液体。）”可知，本段主要是关于礼物包装的说明，且后文提到了重新包装。故F选项“如果你的礼物引起警报，你需要拆除任何礼物包装”符合语境，故选F。
37. 根据本段内容“While US airports are actually busier in the summer months than during the holiday season, it still pays to arrive an hour or two early. As a general rule, it is recommended arriving two hours early for a domestic(国内的) flight and three hours early for an international flight.（虽然美国机场在夏季的几个月实际上比假期更繁忙，但提前一两个小时到达还是值得的。一般来说，国内航班建议提前两小时到达，国际航班建议提前三小时到达。）”可知，后文提到了国内航班建议提前两小时到达，国际航班建议提前三小时到达，即本段的主旨是提前到达机场。故B选项“提前到达机场”符合语境，故选B。
38. 根据上文“Yes, it is completely permitted to travel with the fruitcake, pies and chocolates you take away from holiday dinner. But the 3.4 ounce liquid limit for carry-ons applies here, too.（是的，带着你从节日晚餐中带走的水果蛋糕、馅饼和巧克力旅行是完全允许的。但随身携带3.4盎司液体的限制也适用于这里。）”可知，上文提到可以带着节日晚餐的食物旅行，故E选项“饼干、蛋糕、火鸡等食物可以通过安检”符合语境，故选E。
39. 根据后文“The airport won’t permit those in either checked bags or carry-ons. For a full list of prohibited items, visit the website.（机场不允许携带这些东西在托运行李或随身行李里。有关禁用物品的完整清单，请访问网站。）”可知，本句主要是在具体说明禁用物品。故C选项“把你的火柴和刀子留在家里”符合语境，故选C。
40. 根据上文“Consider packing your bags and dressing in ways that will make going through security faster. Wear sports clothes that don’t require a belt.（考虑打包行李和穿着可以让你更快地通过安检。穿不需要腰带的运动服。）”以及后文“And pre-pack any liquid in a clear, small-sized plastic bag.（把所有液体预先装在一个透明的小塑料袋里。）”可知，本句与前后文并列，都是在说明如何打包行李物品。故G选项“让大的电子产品触手可及，这样你就能很容易地拆卸和更换它们”符合语境，故选G。

【答案】
Today she showed up in a raincoat. Seeing her standing in the heavy rain with all the body wet, I finally could not control myself and shouted at her, “Why do you look so flustered? I don’t need you to take me home. I feel ashamed to have a mother like you!” Suddenly, Mom was shocked and silent. Maybe, she had never thought that I would have that feeling of her appearance and our home condition. She said nothing and just covered the raincoat on me. I pushed it away wildly.
Mom tried to cover me with the back of the raincoat again as a storm set in. With a smile, she said, “Dear son, I’m trying my best to earn our living, and I’m sure that if we work harder, we will get whatever we want in the future.” Hearing her words, I felt embarrassed. I thought of the time when she knitted in the deep night and cooked for me in the early morning. Yes, she had always been doing whatever she could to make me live well. But I was still unsatisfied. I had known that if I wanted to get what others had, I should spare no efforts to study hard and get it by myself.

Eugene O’Neill, who was born in 1888, in New York, was a leading American drama writer and the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1936. His father was a successful touring actor. Because of that, Eugene spent his early childhood in hotels, on trains, and backstage. Although later in his life he grew to hate his father for not giving him security in his early years and a loving and comfortable family, he had the theater in his blood.
As a student, O’Neill went to boarding schools but spent the summers in a moderate house his family owned. He left Princeton University in 1907, only about one year after he entered it, to start what he later called his real education in “life experience”. At the age of 24, he was hired as a reporter and poetry column writer for the Net London Telegraph, where he worked for only a few months.
O’Neill didn’t cut a figure in playwriting until the summer of 1916, when he was in a peaceful village of Provincetown. Massachusetts, where some young writers and artists had founded an experimental theater. Before that, he had written awkward melodramas (情节剧) that were hardly accepted by the mainstream of American theater. While O’Neill was only one of those whose plays were produced by the theater, he led the group to success because of his contribution within the next few years. Between 1916 and 1920, the theater produced all of O’Neill’s one-act sea plays. By the time his first full-length play, Beyond the Horizon, was produced on Broadway on February 2,1920, at the Morosco Theater, the young playwright already had a small reputation.
Theater critics spoke highly of Beyond the Horizon for its tragic realism. The play brought O’Neill more public attention, as well as his first Pulitzer Prize, apart from which he won another three for Anna Christie, Strange Interlude, and Long Day’s Journey Into Night. Over the next two decades. O’Neill continued to gain reputation nationally and globally. He became the most widely translated and produced dramatist after Shakespeare and Bernard Shaw.
24. What might inspire O’Neill’s passion for theater?
A. His father’s career. B. The support of his family.
C. Hotel rooms he had lived in D. Stories he had heard on trains.
25. Why did O’Neill drop out of Princeton University?
A. He didn’t want to study in a boarding school.
B. He wanted to receive real education from life.
C. He got a job from the Nee London Telegraph.
D. He was unsatisfied with the quality of university education.
26. What does the underlined phrase “cut a figure” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Show interest. B. Hold a degree.
C. Attract attention. D. Receive an award.
27. What can we learn about O’Neill’s Beyond the Horizon?
A. It enhanced his reputation in the field of theater.
B. It drew theater critics’ attention to tragic realism.
C. It inspired him to compose another three dramas.
D. It made him the most widely translated and produced dramatist.

An Ontario teen is making waves by turning old fishing gear into new treasures. Since last year, Natalie, 15, has been taking lost or thrown — away fishing nets and rope and transforming them into bracelets, rope art, mats, baskets and necklaces.
Last year, Natalie was working on an assignment for her science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) class. As part of the assignment, she learned about “ghost nets”, which are fishing nets that have been left or lost in the ocean by people who fish.
“They have huge effects on our environment. They can kill coral reefs and many animals,” said Natalie. “46 percent of the Pacific garbage is ghost gear.” The Great Pacific Garbage is a huge collection of trash floating in the Pacific Ocean between Hawaii and California.
Natalie told her mom she wanted to do something to help. She got in touch with a handful of charities, including the Sea Protection Society and Coastal Action.
After getting some shipments of ghost nets and rope from those organizations, Natalie, with the help of her family, started turning the discarded gear into new artworks. “We've made bracelets, rope art, mats, baskets, and we've made necklaces, which also use beach glass in them,” she said. Natalie then started selling the artworks online, the crafty buying and selling website.
She donated all her profits-minus a small sum of change to cover supplies — to the charities that donated fishing supplies to her. She's also been donating all the income from her non-profit business, called Nautical Waters, to charity. Natalie said she hoped to continue her passion for ocean life, with plans to study marine biology in university.
28. How did Natalie help with ghost nets?
A. By turning them into artworks. B. By asking support from her mother.
C. By collecting money from charities. D. By selling ghost nets at a good price.
29. What made Natalie decide to do something with ghost nets?
A. To collect supplies for the artworks.
B. To prepare for her study in university.
C. To protect coral reefs and marine animals.
D. To complete an assignment for her STEM class.
30. What docs the underlined word “discarded” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A. Polluted. B. Rare. C. Waste. D. Discovered.
31. What is the best title for the text.
A. Ghost Nets Ready for Sale B. Charities Make a Big Difference
C. Natalie's Passion for Ocean Treasures D. Teen Turns Old Fishing Nets into Artworks

The ISS orbits Earth at an average of 250 miles from the surface of Earth and completes 15.5 circles per day, once every 92 minutes. In other words, the astronauts see the sunrise and sunset 16 times every day!
The station is inhabited by astronauts conducting research in various fields, while also using it as an observatory to explore Earth and outer space. It is also intended to be a transportation center for spacecraft that are bound for the Moon, Mars and other interplanetary voyages.
The crew is not only responsible for the scientific experimentation and research being conducted onboard, but also the upkeep and maintenance of the vessel, a vessel that is continuously in motion and exposed to the worst possible elements. Such conditions are significant area of study for researchers.
The most common effect of space is the initial contact — getting used to such an alien environment. Astronauts are often seen to display anxiety or depression as they adjust to the novelty of space, according to post-psychiatric screenings of astronauts. Other causes of stress are the high pressure of work while being under frequent public observation, being away from home and family, and missing important events.
Sleep is another major factor that affects the mood and efficiency of the astronauts. Due to the irregularity in life and the constant rotation (转动) of sunrise and sunset, the circadian rhythm (生理节律) of the astronauts goes completely haywire, resulting in poor quality of sleep. The shuttle itself is noisy, with essential equipment always in operation to sustain the vessel. Half of all the astronauts onboard rely on sleeping pills to get some rest and manage to get an average 2 hours less sleep than when they’re back on Earth.

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。
When school was over, the day was fading and it started to drizzle(毛毛雨). I stood at the school gate, with a loaded backpack on my shoulders. It was Friday again: a weekend of joy with unlimited sleeping hours and dinner courses specially made to my taste, a weekend at home. I waved goodbye to my friends as they jumped into their fathers’ warm and comfortable cars. Curiously, this gave rise to a disturbing feeling in me. It was not exactly what they called jealousy, but something like dismay(沮丧). I knew all I could expect was an old bike Mom would ride along on, with the badly-oiled chain creaking(嘎吱作响) against the wheel to announce her arrival.
Every Friday when Mom came to pick me up for the weekend, it was a moment full of great expectation and great unease. I always felt my face burning as we rode our way in and out of the numerous cars and saw my friends’ faces sticking out of the car windows. It was like stepping into a ballroom with beautifully dressed ladies and finding yourself in a smelly T-shirt.
To tell you the truth, Mom is quite a headache once in a while. She just looks a homely middle-aged housewife. Being a practitioner of DIY, she knits most of my sweaters, chiefly in old styles. Whenever caught by some curious classmates asking what brand my sweaters are, I’d force a smile and reply in a half joking manner: homemade.
I couldn’t remember when I started to find her such an embarrassment. As a little boy, I relied on her so much. She had been working at home, cooking in the kitchen, knitting by the lamp or riding across town to buy me a book I badly needed. It had always been much fun riding with mom. But just now there seemed to be something standing between us, something that made her so strange to me and me to her.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Today she showed up in a raincoat.

Mom tried to cover me with the back of the raincoat again as a storm set in.

【答案】
Today she showed up in a raincoat. Seeing her standing in the heavy rain with all the body wet, I finally could not control myself and shouted at her, “Why do you look so flustered? I don’t need you to take me home. I feel ashamed to have a mother like you!” Suddenly, Mom was shocked and silent. Maybe, she had never thought that I would have that feeling of her appearance and our home condition. She said nothing and just covered the raincoat on me. I pushed it away wildly.
Mom tried to cover me with the back of the raincoat again as a storm set in. With a smile, she said, “Dear son, I’m trying my best to earn our living, and I’m sure that if we work harder, we will get whatever we want in the future.” Hearing her words, I felt embarrassed. I thought of the time when she knitted in the deep night and cooked for me in the early morning. Yes, she had always been doing whatever she could to make me live well. But I was still unsatisfied. I had known that if I wanted to get what others had, I should spare no efforts to study hard and get it by myself.
