第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)
第一节(共10个小题;每小题2.5分,满分25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
Little black taxis, often run-down and falling apart from decades of use, have for a long time been a main feature of Cairo’s chaotic urban landscape. But their days may be numbered, thanks to a new taxi replacement programme aimed at knocking out older, potentially unsafe vehicles.
The government-sponsored action, launched earlier this year, allows drivers of taxis 20 years or older, mostly Fiats and Peugeots, to trade their cars for shiny new all-white ones at generous rates of financing. Drivers can choose between five different locally manufactured car models.
According to officials, more than 11,000 brand new taxis, sporting trademark checked stripes on the sides, have already hit the streets of the capital, and they’ve been welcomed enthusiastically by passengers. Many people say that not only are the new taxis more comfortable, but they also make the streets of Cairo far more presentable. Furthermore, taxi fares have only increased by a small amount.
The poor condition of most black and white taxis is almost legendary. Passengers often have to deal with windows and doors that do not open and close, and heavy, thick petrol gases. Air conditioning is unheard of. The new all-white taxis, meanwhile, are cleaner, more fuel-efficient and provide air conditioning on request. Furthermore, all the new taxis come equipped with functioning fare meters, which avoids arguments and sometimes fights with passengers!
The government hopes to replace all of the capital’s 40,000 elderly black cabs soon, but not everyone in Cairo will be happy to see them go. Hotel manager Ibrahim Al-Toukhy says that the old black cabs were weak and run-down, and maybe even a little dangerous, but they were part of the city, and part of Cairo’s character.
1. Which of the followings can replace the underlined word “chaotic” in paragraph 1?
A. disorderly B. fantastic C. busy D. silent
2. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the new taxis?
A. They are much more presentable.
B. Their passengers have to pay dramatically more.
C. They are much more energy-saving.
D. Only few of them provide air conditioning.
3. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The road traffic condition of Cairo
B. A taxi renewal programme launched in Cairo
C. The problems with old black Cairo taxis.
D. Various views on the new taxi replacement in Cairo
【答案】1. A 2. C 3. B
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。旧出租车已成为开罗的城市特色,但因其车况残破不堪。本文主要介绍了开罗政府实行的新出租车更换旧出租车的工程。
【1题详解】
词义猜测题。根据上文可知,黑色的旧出租车经常出故障,已经成为开罗地区的chaotic特点的具体体现,和下文的But their days may be numbered, thanks to a new taxi replacement programme aimed at knocking out older, potentially unsafe vehicles.可知,而新的出租车将排除这种旧出租车带来的潜在的不安全因素。结合四个选项,由此可猜测chaotic为“混乱不堪的”。故选A。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段they also make the streets of Cairo far more presentable可知,新出租车使得streets变得presentable而不是出租车本身presentable,故排除A;由taxi fares have only increased by a small amount可知,新出租车的车费只有少量上涨,故排除B;由第四段The new all-white taxis provide air conditioning on request可知,只要乘客要求,司机都会提供冷气,故排除D;由The new all-white taxis, meanwhile, are cleaner, more fuel-efficient可知,新出租车更省燃料。故选C。
【3题详解】
主旨大意题。本文开篇第一段已将整体大意表明:虽然旧出租车已成为开罗的城市特色,但因其车况残破不堪,开罗政府已实行新出租车更换旧出租车的工程。再结合四个选项可知,本文主要内容为“开罗启动了出租车更新计划”。故选B。
B
THREE years ago Jenny Salgado, a Dominican shop assistant, moved to Highland town, a neighborhood of Baltimore. When she arrived the shop she works in, it was one of only a few Spanish businesses. Now there are many more. “It’s good now if you speak Spanish,” she smiles.
Baltimore has been losing people for 60 years. To address this, its mayor, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, wants to make it the most immigrant-friendly city in the world. Its libraries provide Spanish-language exercise classes. To help those with no papers, the city is introducing micro-loans (小额贷款) which require no credit checks; city police would no longer routinely check the immigration status of citizens or enforce any federal immigration law unless required to. The then governor, Martin O'Malley made it possible for illegal immigrants to get driving licenses.
Such welcoming policies are spreading. Such cities as Cleveland, Dayton and Philadelphia all eagerly try to please immigrants. Rick Snyder, the governor of Michigan, has asked the federal government to offer 50,000 visas to people who agree to live in Detroit. His administration has made it easier for skilled migrants to get professional licenses.
When a city’s population falls, both tax receipts and services fall. Half-deserted neighborhoods breed (滋生) crime, driving yet more people to leave. No city has escaped this death circle without attracting new residents, says Steve Tobocman of Global Detroit.
Several studies suggest that when immigrants arrive, crime goes down, schools improve and shops open up. In Detroit, immigrants living near the tiny separate city of Hamtramck have formed local watches to guard against thieves. Their neighborhoods are not just safer; they are also among the only places where it is as easy to buy fresh vegetables as drugs and alcohol.
But attracting new immigrants to the cities which most need them is hard, argues Audrey Singer of the Brookings Institution. They care about the same things as everyone else: safe streets, good schools and jobs. Cities which have lost population for decades struggle with all of these.
4. What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Account for. B. Deal with. C. Get rid of. D. Take away from.
5. What may happen when a half-deserted city makes efforts to attract new residents?
A. Credit card checks will be stricter. B. Immigrants’ identity will be protected.
C. The public services will get worse. D. The crime rate will decline.
6. Which of the following statements may Audrey Singer agree with?
A. Attracting immigrants to such cities as Detroit is demanding.
B. Immigrants have higher expectations of a city than its locals.
C. There is no need to encourage such immigrant-friendly policies.
D. Attracting immigrants helps prevent a city from losing population.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。巴尔的摩60年来人口越来越少。文章主要介绍了该市为了解决这个问题,采取的一系列措施,希望使该市成为世界上对移民最友好的城市。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。根据上文的“Baltimore has been losing people for 60 years”及下文提出的诸多解决措施可知,画线词所在部分在句中作目的状语,表示为了应付这种情况,故画线词意为“对付,处理”,与deal with 的意思相近。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第5段的Several studies suggest that when immigrants arrive, crime goes down可知,当一个城市的移民大量涌入时,犯罪人员就会减少。故选D。
6题详解】
细节理解题。由最后一段的But attracting new immigrants to the cities which most need them is hard, argues Audrey Singer of the Brookings Institution.可知,将大量移民吸引到底特律这样的城市是很困难的。故选A。
【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一,可以大致分为①定义猜词,可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用refer to,be called或that’s to say,such as等。②逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义,例如,similarly,the same as,but,however,while,on the other hand, since ,because等,所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。③语法猜词,可以根据构词法,再结合上下文进行猜词。④语境猜词,猜测词义离不开上下文的语境,通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析,同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。⑤指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容,做题时要注意指代词的位置,以便于判断,然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词,核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致,最后比较所找部分与选项,确定意思最接近的选项。本文中的第1小题是词义猜测题,该小题属于语境猜词,根据上文巴尔的摩一直在失去人口,以及下文提到采取的措施可知,此处是指市长要解决这一问题。结合所给选项,可准确的猜测出该词是“解决(deal with)”的意思。
C
Babies made from three people approved in UK
Babies made from two women and one man have been approved by the UK's fertility regulator. The historic and controversial move is to prevent children being born with deadly genetic diseases.
Doctors in Newcastle - who developed the advanced form of In Vitro Fertilization or IVF (人工授精) - are expected to be the first to offer the procedure and have already appealed for donor eggs. The first such child could be born, at the earliest, by the end of 2017.
Some families have lost multiple children to incurable mitochondrial (线粒体的) diseases, which can leave people with insufficient energy to keep their heart beating.
The diseases are passed down from only the mother so a technique using a donor egg as well as the mother's egg and father's sperm has been developed.
The resulting child has a tiny amount of their DNA from the donor, but the procedure is legal and reviews say it is ethical (伦理的) and scientifically ready.
"It is a decision of historic importance," said Sally Cheshire, chairwoman of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA)."I'm sure patients will be really pleased by what we've decided today."
But some scientists have questioned the ethics of the technique, saying it could open the door to genetically-modified(转基因) 'designer' babies.
The HFEA must approve every clinic and every patient before the procedure can take place. Three-person babies have been allowed only in cases where the risk of a child developing mitochondrial disease is very high.
Prof Mary Herbert, from the Newcastle Fertility Centre, said: "It is enormously pleasing that our many years of research in this area can finally be applied to help families affected by these devastating diseases.
"Now that that we are moving forward towards clinical treatments, we will also need donors to donate eggs for use in treatment to prevent affected women transmitting disease to their children."
Prof Sir Doug Turnbull, the director of the Wellcome Centre for Mitochondrial Research at Newcastle University, said: "We are delighted by today's decision. We will also provide long-term follow up of any children born."
NHS England has agreed to fund the treatment costs of the first trial of three-person IVF for those women who meet the HFEA criteria, as long as they agree to long-term follow up of their children after they are born.
7. Why is it historically important to approve babies made from three people?
A. It helps couples who lose the ability to give birth to a baby.
B. It stops deadly genetic diseases passing down to newly-born babies.
C. It marks a foundation stone to change babies’s appearances before birth.
D. It turns out to be an advanced form of In Vitro Fertilization.
8. Which of the followings is TRUE about mitochondrial diseases?
A. They prevent people’s heart from functioning normally.
B. They pass down on to babies from their parents.
C. Some children infected can be cured with proper treatment.
D. Babies can be infected with them through a donor’s egg.
9. How can a clinic or a patient be approved of applying the three-person baby technique?
A. Only when the clinic gets scientifically ready.
B. Only when the patient gets financially prepared.
C. Only when the baby to be born needs it to survive
D. Only when the technique is ethnically accepted.
10. What is the author’s attitude towards the approval of babies made from three people?
A. Supportive B. Indifferent C. Objective D. Worried
【答案】7. B 8. A 9. C 10. C
【解析】
这是一篇应用文。文章报道了英国通过法案允许“三个人生孩子”。这一历史性且有争议的举措是为了防止儿童出生时携带致命的基因疾病。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段的The historic and controversial move is to prevent children being born with deadly genetic diseases.可知,这一历史性的举措能防止新生儿遗传一些致命性的基因疾病。因此,英国政府批准这一举措的重要性正在于此。故选B。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段…which can leave people with insufficient energy to keep their heart beating可知,线粒体疾病会使患者没有足够的力气维持心脏的跳动。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。由第八段Three-person babies have been allowed only in cases where the risk of a child developing mitochondrial disease is very high.可知,这项人工授精的技术只能在新生儿患该线粒体疾病的概率非常大的情况下才能施行。因此,只有当新生儿急需这项技术才能幸存下来的情况下才能同意临床机构和病人使用。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。本文为新闻报道题材,作者仅仅引用了多位该领域的专家的言论,其中既有支持这一决定的观点,也有质疑这一决定是否会默认转基因克隆人技术的发展的疑问(第7段),而作者本身的观点并未在文中具体表露,因此,作者仍站在客观的角度看待这个问题。故选C。
第二节(共5个小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
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。
A new urban sport, parkour, is hitting the streets. It has evolved from obstacle course training into a fitness option for young people. In parkour, the outside world is the gym! ____11____ The goal of parkour is a direct route from one place to another. You meet an obstacle, you overcome it.
Mark Toorock, who teaches the techniques of parkour at his fitness gym, says that parkour is a method to train the body and mind using obstacles as the medium. He says that this new sport is demanding and takes years to master. _____12_____
But Toorock, who used to be a martial arts expert, says that everyone can benefit from learning the basic skills involved in parkour like running, jumping and crawling (爬行). These are the things that humans used to have to do all the time. ____13____ The original idea of parkour was to return to running and jumping as basic elements in moving from one place to another.
Georges Hebert, a French navy officer, was so impressed by the effortless athleticism of African tribes that he devised a training method based on running, climbing, jumping, balancing and throwing. The word parkour comes from parcours de combatant, the French term for a military obstacle course. ____14____
Dr Kenneth Kao explains that the sport of parkour is not extreme – it is the environment which is extreme and dangerous. Being outside jumping off railings and flipping over park benches can be quite frightening, so parkour courses in gyms concentrate on practicing all the individual moves to make everything easier. ____15____ However, that is not real parkour because it’s indoors with a fixed obstacle. The goal for everyone is to go outdoors.
A. Gyms provide thick floor matting (垫子) for rolling and rubberized boxes for jumping over.
B. The bridges, buildings and railings (栏杆) of each and every city are the equipment.
C. Every action in parkour is natural, so everyone must have the ability to move in this way.
D. Parkour was introduced into china in recent years and has gained popularity.
E. But today, due to modern transport, these basic skills are no longer used on a regular basis.
F. The French word for people who participate in the sport is traceurs or traceuses.
G. Beginners should realize that they won’t be jumping over buildings any time soon!
【答案】11. B 12. G
13. E 14. F
15. A
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种流行的运动—跑酷(障碍训练)。
【11题详解】
根据前文提及的the outside world is the gym,因此,下文中……are the equipment与之呼应。外面的世界是健身房,而桥梁、建筑物、栏杆则是健身房当中的器械。故选B。
【12题详解】
前文提及this new sport is demanding and takes years to master,因此,下文中Beginners should realize that they won’t be jumping over buildings any time soon与之对应。跑酷要求很高,很难掌握,所以新手应该明白不可能朝夕之间就能轻易翻越障碍。两句话连接紧凑,合乎逻辑。故选G。
【13题详解】
前文提及人类自古以来就会奔跑、跳跃、爬行,因此后文中的but today, ……these basic skills are no longer used on a regular basis与之构成转折关系。一句写古时候,一句转折写现如今,合乎逻辑。故选E。
【14题详解】
本段的主要内容是跑酷运动的起源以及“跑酷”这一名称的法语词源。因此,F选项中the French word for people who……正是围绕这一中心内容展开的细节信息。故选F。
【15题详解】
由后文this is not real parkour because it’s indoors with a fixed obstacle可知,此处的it’s indoors与A选项中Gyms对应,a fixed obstacle与rubberized boxes for jumping over对应。故选A。

47.阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
I encountered God the summer I was five. My father had finally grown too sick to get out of bed, so the heat and nervous tension in the air inside the house made it impossible to breathe. I would escape by squeezing under the front porch. All manner of creatures lived there, but I mostly ignored them, with one exception — a little frog who, every time I crawled (爬行) under the porch, stared at me with great, golden eyes.
In late June, the frog finally hopped (跳跃) toward my arm and stared at me, demanding eye contact. Once he had my attention, he opened his wide mouth and said, “Hello, Sophie.”
I should have been shocked, but for some reason, I wasn’t. Perhaps at five years old, I was more receptive to something against the laws of nature. At any rate, I was not shocked that a frog could speak. I had a more pressing question.
"How do you know my name?”
The frog blinked slowly. “I know everything. I am God.”
I spoke, "You can’t be God. You’re too small.”
He extended a long, webbed finger and was pointing to the edge of the porch’s shadow — to the spot where my mother had tried to grow flowers there for years. She had stopped trying when my father’s condition worsened.
"Look there,” commanded the frog, and I stared as a beautiful white flower blossomed as if stretching its limbs after a long sleep. In my five years, I had never seen anything so splendid.
God and I became good friends that summer. I spent every day under the porch, talking to him.
Sometimes I asked God questions. Sometimes he answered. Once, I asked him where Heaven was.
"Heaven,” he said, “is where I live.”
In August, my father’s illness had progressed to the point that I was sent to my aunt’s house in Virginia. I told God I would be back soon, and then waited in Virginia for my father to get better.
注意:
1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2. 应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语;
3. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;

Six months later, I came back home for my father’s funeral.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Suddenly, an idea crossed my mind that my father might travel to Heaven.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
Six months later, I came back home for my father’s funeral. Death is very confusing for a child. I didn’t understand what it meant to die; all I knew was that my father had been lying in his bed and receiving medical treatment for his illness when I left, and now when I came back, he was nowhere to be found. He must be hiding somewhere, I was sure; people couldn’t just disappear, especially without saying good-bye. Though my mother told me he had “passed on”, I thought she meant he’d traveled to another town.
Paragraph 2:
Suddenly, an idea crossed my mind that my father might travel to Heaven. I knew exactly how to find my father. I ran to the front porch. However, I had grown during those six months in Virginia, and I could no longer squeeze into the porch’s shadows. I sat in front of the porch all afternoon, calling for someone to answer me. No voice came. No father returned from the dead. No frog jumped out of its hiding spot. I was too big to talk to God, so I started to cry.

这是一篇记叙文,要求对故事进行续写。
【详解】根据提示信息和要求,本文的写作可以根据以下步骤展开:1.精读文章,确定文章线索,本文是以时间为线索这有利于“顺藤摸瓜”。2.仔细审题,明确续写要求,如字数限制(150)、使用几处(5)下划线关键词语、续写段落的首句提示(开头语已为你写好)等,做到“心中有数”。3.回扣原文,想象续写内容。快速回读短文,揣摩文章的思路,结合段首的提示语和划线词语提示,确定续写段落的内容。本文续写的两个段落首句已给出,就减少了难度,考生可以根据首句内容续写(1.六个月后,我参加父亲的葬礼;2. 突然,一个想法掠过我的脑海,我的父亲可能去天堂。)结合提示语和文中划线的关键词写出文章,注意句子结构的多样性,语言的丰富性,上下文的衔接。
【点睛】本文紧扣原文中心,以原文的结局为起点,写出的故事情节展开了合理的推想。文章使用了几个高分句型。1. I didn’t understand what it meant to die此句为what引导的宾语从句。2. Though my mother told me he had “passed on”, I thought she meant he’d traveled to another town. 本句含有though引导的让步状语从句和thought后是that引导的宾语从句,且此处省略了that。3. I knew exactly how to find my father. 此句为how引导的宾语从句,且使用了“疑问词+to do”这一结构。

A
Little black taxis, often run-down and falling apart from decades of use, have for a long time been a main feature of Cairo’s chaotic urban landscape. But their days may be numbered, thanks to a new taxi replacement programme aimed at knocking out older, potentially unsafe vehicles.
The government-sponsored action, launched earlier this year, allows drivers of taxis 20 years or older, mostly Fiats and Peugeots, to trade their cars for shiny new all-white ones at generous rates of financing. Drivers can choose between five different locally manufactured car models.
According to officials, more than 11,000 brand new taxis, sporting trademark checked stripes on the sides, have already hit the streets of the capital, and they’ve been welcomed enthusiastically by passengers. Many people say that not only are the new taxis more comfortable, but they also make the streets of Cairo far more presentable. Furthermore, taxi fares have only increased by a small amount.
The poor condition of most black and white taxis is almost legendary. Passengers often have to deal with windows and doors that do not open and close, and heavy, thick petrol gases. Air conditioning is unheard of. The new all-white taxis, meanwhile, are cleaner, more fuel-efficient and provide air conditioning on request. Furthermore, all the new taxis come equipped with functioning fare meters, which avoids arguments and sometimes fights with passengers!
The government hopes to replace all of the capital’s 40,000 elderly black cabs soon, but not everyone in Cairo will be happy to see them go. Hotel manager Ibrahim Al-Toukhy says that the old black cabs were weak and run-down, and maybe even a little dangerous, but they were part of the city, and part of Cairo’s character.
1. Which of the followings can replace the underlined word “chaotic” in paragraph 1?
A. disorderly B. fantastic C. busy D. silent
2. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the new taxis?
A. They are much more presentable.
B. Their passengers have to pay dramatically more.
C. They are much more energy-saving.
D. Only few of them provide air conditioning.
3. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The road traffic condition of Cairo
B. A taxi renewal programme launched in Cairo
C. The problems with old black Cairo taxis.
D. Various views on the new taxi replacement in Cairo
【答案】1. A 2. C 3. B
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。旧出租车已成为开罗的城市特色,但因其车况残破不堪。本文主要介绍了开罗政府实行的新出租车更换旧出租车的工程。
【1题详解】
词义猜测题。根据上文可知,黑色的旧出租车经常出故障,已经成为开罗地区的chaotic特点的具体体现,和下文的But their days may be numbered, thanks to a new taxi replacement programme aimed at knocking out older, potentially unsafe vehicles.可知,而新的出租车将排除这种旧出租车带来的潜在的不安全因素。结合四个选项,由此可猜测chaotic为“混乱不堪的”。故选A。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段they also make the streets of Cairo far more presentable可知,新出租车使得streets变得presentable而不是出租车本身presentable,故排除A;由taxi fares have only increased by a small amount可知,新出租车的车费只有少量上涨,故排除B;由第四段The new all-white taxis provide air conditioning on request可知,只要乘客要求,司机都会提供冷气,故排除D;由The new all-white taxis, meanwhile, are cleaner, more fuel-efficient可知,新出租车更省燃料。故选C。
【3题详解】
主旨大意题。本文开篇第一段已将整体大意表明:虽然旧出租车已成为开罗的城市特色,但因其车况残破不堪,开罗政府已实行新出租车更换旧出租车的工程。再结合四个选项可知,本文主要内容为“开罗启动了出租车更新计划”。故选B。

THREE years ago Jenny Salgado, a Dominican shop assistant, moved to Highland town, a neighborhood of Baltimore. When she arrived the shop she works in, it was one of only a few Spanish businesses. Now there are many more. “It’s good now if you speak Spanish,” she smiles.
Baltimore has been losing people for 60 years. To address this, its mayor, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, wants to make it the most immigrant-friendly city in the world. Its libraries provide Spanish-language exercise classes. To help those with no papers, the city is introducing micro-loans (小额贷款) which require no credit checks; city police would no longer routinely check the immigration status of citizens or enforce any federal immigration law unless required to. The then governor, Martin O'Malley made it possible for illegal immigrants to get driving licenses.
Such welcoming policies are spreading. Such cities as Cleveland, Dayton and Philadelphia all eagerly try to please immigrants. Rick Snyder, the governor of Michigan, has asked the federal government to offer 50,000 visas to people who agree to live in Detroit. His administration has made it easier for skilled migrants to get professional licenses.
When a city’s population falls, both tax receipts and services fall. Half-deserted neighborhoods breed (滋生) crime, driving yet more people to leave. No city has escaped this death circle without attracting new residents, says Steve Tobocman of Global Detroit.
Several studies suggest that when immigrants arrive, crime goes down, schools improve and shops open up. In Detroit, immigrants living near the tiny separate city of Hamtramck have formed local watches to guard against thieves. Their neighborhoods are not just safer; they are also among the only places where it is as easy to buy fresh vegetables as drugs and alcohol.
But attracting new immigrants to the cities which most need them is hard, argues Audrey Singer of the Brookings Institution. They care about the same things as everyone else: safe streets, good schools and jobs. Cities which have lost population for decades struggle with all of these.
4. What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Account for. B. Deal with. C. Get rid of. D. Take away from.
5. What may happen when a half-deserted city makes efforts to attract new residents?
A. Credit card checks will be stricter. B. Immigrants’ identity will be protected.
C. The public services will get worse. D. The crime rate will decline.
6. Which of the following statements may Audrey Singer agree with?
A. Attracting immigrants to such cities as Detroit is demanding.
B. Immigrants have higher expectations of a city than its locals.
C. There is no need to encourage such immigrant-friendly policies.
D. Attracting immigrants helps prevent a city from losing population.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。巴尔的摩60年来人口越来越少。文章主要介绍了该市为了解决这个问题,采取的一系列措施,希望使该市成为世界上对移民最友好的城市。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。根据上文的“Baltimore has been losing people for 60 years”及下文提出的诸多解决措施可知,画线词所在部分在句中作目的状语,表示为了应付这种情况,故画线词意为“对付,处理”,与deal with 的意思相近。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第5段的Several studies suggest that when immigrants arrive, crime goes down可知,当一个城市的移民大量涌入时,犯罪人员就会减少。故选D。
6题详解】
细节理解题。由最后一段的But attracting new immigrants to the cities which most need them is hard, argues Audrey Singer of the Brookings Institution.可知,将大量移民吸引到底特律这样的城市是很困难的。故选A。
【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一,可以大致分为①定义猜词,可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用refer to,be called或that’s to say,such as等。②逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义,例如,similarly,the same as,but,however,while,on the other hand, since ,because等,所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。③语法猜词,可以根据构词法,再结合上下文进行猜词。④语境猜词,猜测词义离不开上下文的语境,通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析,同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。⑤指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容,做题时要注意指代词的位置,以便于判断,然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词,核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致,最后比较所找部分与选项,确定意思最接近的选项。本文中的第1小题是词义猜测题,该小题属于语境猜词,根据上文巴尔的摩一直在失去人口,以及下文提到采取的措施可知,此处是指市长要解决这一问题。结合所给选项,可准确的猜测出该词是“解决(deal with)”的意思。

Babies made from three people approved in UK
Babies made from two women and one man have been approved by the UK's fertility regulator. The historic and controversial move is to prevent children being born with deadly genetic diseases.
Doctors in Newcastle - who developed the advanced form of In Vitro Fertilization or IVF (人工授精) - are expected to be the first to offer the procedure and have already appealed for donor eggs. The first such child could be born, at the earliest, by the end of 2017.
Some families have lost multiple children to incurable mitochondrial (线粒体的) diseases, which can leave people with insufficient energy to keep their heart beating.
The diseases are passed down from only the mother so a technique using a donor egg as well as the mother's egg and father's sperm has been developed.
The resulting child has a tiny amount of their DNA from the donor, but the procedure is legal and reviews say it is ethical (伦理的) and scientifically ready.
"It is a decision of historic importance," said Sally Cheshire, chairwoman of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA)."I'm sure patients will be really pleased by what we've decided today."
But some scientists have questioned the ethics of the technique, saying it could open the door to genetically-modified(转基因) 'designer' babies.
The HFEA must approve every clinic and every patient before the procedure can take place. Three-person babies have been allowed only in cases where the risk of a child developing mitochondrial disease is very high.
Prof Mary Herbert, from the Newcastle Fertility Centre, said: "It is enormously pleasing that our many years of research in this area can finally be applied to help families affected by these devastating diseases.
"Now that that we are moving forward towards clinical treatments, we will also need donors to donate eggs for use in treatment to prevent affected women transmitting disease to their children."
Prof Sir Doug Turnbull, the director of the Wellcome Centre for Mitochondrial Research at Newcastle University, said: "We are delighted by today's decision. We will also provide long-term follow up of any children born."
NHS England has agreed to fund the treatment costs of the first trial of three-person IVF for those women who meet the HFEA criteria, as long as they agree to long-term follow up of their children after they are born.
7. Why is it historically important to approve babies made from three people?
A. It helps couples who lose the ability to give birth to a baby.
B. It stops deadly genetic diseases passing down to newly-born babies.
C. It marks a foundation stone to change babies’s appearances before birth.
D. It turns out to be an advanced form of In Vitro Fertilization.
8. Which of the followings is TRUE about mitochondrial diseases?
A. They prevent people’s heart from functioning normally.
B. They pass down on to babies from their parents.
C. Some children infected can be cured with proper treatment.
D. Babies can be infected with them through a donor’s egg.
9. How can a clinic or a patient be approved of applying the three-person baby technique?
A. Only when the clinic gets scientifically ready.
B. Only when the patient gets financially prepared.
C. Only when the baby to be born needs it to survive
D. Only when the technique is ethnically accepted.
10. What is the author’s attitude towards the approval of babies made from three people?
A. Supportive B. Indifferent C. Objective D. Worried
【答案】7. B 8. A 9. C 10. C
【解析】
这是一篇应用文。文章报道了英国通过法案允许“三个人生孩子”。这一历史性且有争议的举措是为了防止儿童出生时携带致命的基因疾病。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段的The historic and controversial move is to prevent children being born with deadly genetic diseases.可知,这一历史性的举措能防止新生儿遗传一些致命性的基因疾病。因此,英国政府批准这一举措的重要性正在于此。故选B。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段…which can leave people with insufficient energy to keep their heart beating可知,线粒体疾病会使患者没有足够的力气维持心脏的跳动。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。由第八段Three-person babies have been allowed only in cases where the risk of a child developing mitochondrial disease is very high.可知,这项人工授精的技术只能在新生儿患该线粒体疾病的概率非常大的情况下才能施行。因此,只有当新生儿急需这项技术才能幸存下来的情况下才能同意临床机构和病人使用。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。本文为新闻报道题材,作者仅仅引用了多位该领域的专家的言论,其中既有支持这一决定的观点,也有质疑这一决定是否会默认转基因克隆人技术的发展的疑问(第7段),而作者本身的观点并未在文中具体表露,因此,作者仍站在客观的角度看待这个问题。故选C。
第二节(共5个小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
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。
A new urban sport, parkour, is hitting the streets. It has evolved from obstacle course training into a fitness option for young people. In parkour, the outside world is the gym! ____11____ The goal of parkour is a direct route from one place to another. You meet an obstacle, you overcome it.
Mark Toorock, who teaches the techniques of parkour at his fitness gym, says that parkour is a method to train the body and mind using obstacles as the medium. He says that this new sport is demanding and takes years to master. _____12_____
But Toorock, who used to be a martial arts expert, says that everyone can benefit from learning the basic skills involved in parkour like running, jumping and crawling (爬行). These are the things that humans used to have to do all the time. ____13____ The original idea of parkour was to return to running and jumping as basic elements in moving from one place to another.
Georges Hebert, a French navy officer, was so impressed by the effortless athleticism of African tribes that he devised a training method based on running, climbing, jumping, balancing and throwing. The word parkour comes from parcours de combatant, the French term for a military obstacle course. ____14____
Dr Kenneth Kao explains that the sport of parkour is not extreme – it is the environment which is extreme and dangerous. Being outside jumping off railings and flipping over park benches can be quite frightening, so parkour courses in gyms concentrate on practicing all the individual moves to make everything easier. ____15____ However, that is not real parkour because it’s indoors with a fixed obstacle. The goal for everyone is to go outdoors.
A. Gyms provide thick floor matting (垫子) for rolling and rubberized boxes for jumping over.
B. The bridges, buildings and railings (栏杆) of each and every city are the equipment.
C. Every action in parkour is natural, so everyone must have the ability to move in this way.
D. Parkour was introduced into china in recent years and has gained popularity.
E. But today, due to modern transport, these basic skills are no longer used on a regular basis.
F. The French word for people who participate in the sport is traceurs or traceuses.
G. Beginners should realize that they won’t be jumping over buildings any time soon!

这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种流行的运动—跑酷(障碍训练)。
【11题详解】
根据前文提及的the outside world is the gym,因此,下文中……are the equipment与之呼应。外面的世界是健身房,而桥梁、建筑物、栏杆则是健身房当中的器械。故选B。
【12题详解】
前文提及this new sport is demanding and takes years to master,因此,下文中Beginners should realize that they won’t be jumping over buildings any time soon与之对应。跑酷要求很高,很难掌握,所以新手应该明白不可能朝夕之间就能轻易翻越障碍。两句话连接紧凑,合乎逻辑。故选G。
【13题详解】
前文提及人类自古以来就会奔跑、跳跃、爬行,因此后文中的but today, ……these basic skills are no longer used on a regular basis与之构成转折关系。一句写古时候,一句转折写现如今,合乎逻辑。故选E。
【14题详解】
本段的主要内容是跑酷运动的起源以及“跑酷”这一名称的法语词源。因此,F选项中the French word for people who……正是围绕这一中心内容展开的细节信息。故选F。
【15题详解】
由后文this is not real parkour because it’s indoors with a fixed obstacle可知,此处的it’s indoors与A选项中Gyms对应,a fixed obstacle与rubberized boxes for jumping over对应。故选A。

How is everything going?
Recently, Hong Kong University, a prestigious university, is launching its student enrollment promotion in our school. I’ve learnt that applicants need to pass an English interview held by Hong Kong University which involves a Leaderless Group Discussion.

第二节:读后续写(满分25分)
47.阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
I encountered God the summer I was five. My father had finally grown too sick to get out of bed, so the heat and nervous tension in the air inside the house made it impossible to breathe. I would escape by squeezing under the front porch. All manner of creatures lived there, but I mostly ignored them, with one exception — a little frog who, every time I crawled (爬行) under the porch, stared at me with great, golden eyes.
In late June, the frog finally hopped (跳跃) toward my arm and stared at me, demanding eye contact. Once he had my attention, he opened his wide mouth and said, “Hello, Sophie.”
I should have been shocked, but for some reason, I wasn’t. Perhaps at five years old, I was more receptive to something against the laws of nature. At any rate, I was not shocked that a frog could speak. I had a more pressing question.
"How do you know my name?”
The frog blinked slowly. “I know everything. I am God.”
I spoke, "You can’t be God. You’re too small.”
He extended a long, webbed finger and was pointing to the edge of the porch’s shadow — to the spot where my mother had tried to grow flowers there for years. She had stopped trying when my father’s condition worsened.
"Look there,” commanded the frog, and I stared as a beautiful white flower blossomed as if stretching its limbs after a long sleep. In my five years, I had never seen anything so splendid.
God and I became good friends that summer. I spent every day under the porch, talking to him.
Sometimes I asked God questions. Sometimes he answered. Once, I asked him where Heaven was.
"Heaven,” he said, “is where I live.”
In August, my father’s illness had progressed to the point that I was sent to my aunt’s house in Virginia. I told God I would be back soon, and then waited in Virginia for my father to get better.
注意:
1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2. 应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语;
3. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;
4. 续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。
Paragraph 1:
Six months later, I came back home for my father’s funeral.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Suddenly, an idea crossed my mind that my father might travel to Heaven.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
Six months later, I came back home for my father’s funeral. Death is very confusing for a child. I didn’t understand what it meant to die; all I knew was that my father had been lying in his bed and receiving medical treatment for his illness when I left, and now when I came back, he was nowhere to be found. He must be hiding somewhere, I was sure; people couldn’t just disappear, especially without saying good-bye. Though my mother told me he had “passed on”, I thought she meant he’d traveled to another town.
Paragraph 2:
Suddenly, an idea crossed my mind that my father might travel to Heaven. I knew exactly how to find my father. I ran to the front porch. However, I had grown during those six months in Virginia, and I could no longer squeeze into the porch’s shadows. I sat in front of the porch all afternoon, calling for someone to answer me. No voice came. No father returned from the dead. No frog jumped out of its hiding spot. I was too big to talk to God, so I started to cry.
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文,要求对故事进行续写。
【详解】根据提示信息和要求,本文的写作可以根据以下步骤展开:1.精读文章,确定文章线索,本文是以时间为线索这有利于“顺藤摸瓜”。2.仔细审题,明确续写要求,如字数限制(150)、使用几处(5)下划线关键词语、续写段落的首句提示(开头语已为你写好)等,做到“心中有数”。3.回扣原文,想象续写内容。快速回读短文,揣摩文章的思路,结合段首的提示语和划线词语提示,确定续写段落的内容。本文续写的两个段落首句已给出,就减少了难度,考生可以根据首句内容续写(1.六个月后,我参加父亲的葬礼;2. 突然,一个想法掠过我的脑海,我的父亲可能去天堂。)结合提示语和文中划线的关键词写出文章,注意句子结构的多样性,语言的丰富性,上下文的衔接。
【点睛】本文紧扣原文中心,以原文的结局为起点,写出的故事情节展开了合理的推想。文章使用了几个高分句型。1. I didn’t understand what it meant to die此句为what引导的宾语从句。2. Though my mother told me he had “passed on”, I thought she meant he’d traveled to another town. 本句含有though引导的让步状语从句和thought后是that引导的宾语从句,且此处省略了that。3. I knew exactly how to find my father. 此句为how引导的宾语从句,且使用了“疑问词+to do”这一结构。
