However，about 80% of high school students don't get enough sleep because of their schoolwork or some bad habits.
27% of people throughout the world have sleep problems. Now there are over 80 kinds of sleep disorders，and most people know little about their danger. So, for our good life and work，it's necessary for us to realize the importance of sleep and try to have a good sleep.
第二部分:阅读理解(共两节，满分35分)
第一节(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
It may not come as a surprise but the world as a whole is getting richer. Some people have more disposable(可自由支配的)income to spend on luxuries such as holidays, cars, TVs and smart phones. Recent data has shown that the number of people living in extreme poverty has halved in recent decades. So should we celebrate the fact that more of us now have a better standard of living?
Maybe not. While the gap between the rich and the poor in some countries is narrowing, there is still a lot of inequality in other places-some people have a lot of money and opportunities and others don't. A recent report by Oxfam and Credit Suisse revealed how divided many of us are when it comes to wealth. A lot of the money in the world is in the hands of very few people. In fact, 48% of global wealth is owned by the richest l% of the population.
But some countries are attempting to reduce this inequality and make the poor, less poor. According to David Bryer from Oxfam, Brazil has been taking "some really sensible measures--measures around having more progressive tax, around investing in a higher minimum wage and investing in central public services." Having a higher minimum wage can help people eat better and seek a better education. And more people with more money buy more things-and factories can produce more. In turn, a factory which produces more will need more workers. So, more jobs are created.
Other wealthy individuals are doing their bit to help reduce inequality. Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, earned a lot of money from his company but when he retired, he and his wife Melinda, created a foundation to help the poor. He thinks that rich people should, of course, pay their taxes but he also advises that they should all "look at taking their wealth and being philanthropic (乐善好施的 ) , both in their own country and to help the global poorest."
Bill Gates feels that giving money to help poor people is "fulfilling". But if other super-rich people don't want to experience this fulfillment then, according to Oxfam, very soon the wealthiest l% will soon own more money than the rest of the world's population. Do you think that is fair?
21. The first two paragraphs mainly tell us _________.
A. the poverty and inequality in a richer world
B. some sensible measures to make the 'poor less poor
C. the increase of global wealth in recent decades
D. the narrowing gap between the rich and the poor
22. What is the government in Brazil doing to the minimum wage?
A. Limiting it. B. Increasing it.
C. Making it lower. D. Setting it free.
23. What do Bill and Melinda Gates think very rich people should do with some of their money?
A. Spend it on their luxuries. B. Give it to help the poor.
C. Invest it in their business. D. Hand it over to their children.
【答案】21. A 22. B 23. B
【解析】

Too much work and too much wine go together like biscuits and cheese, a new international study finds.
Employees who work more than 48 hours a week are 11% more likely to over consume wine than those who work a standard week, Finnish researchers say.
The study looked at more than 300,000 people in Australia, Europe and North America. No differences were seen between men and women, says the study.
Risky wine consumption is considered as more than 14 drinks a week for women and more than 21 drinks a week for men. About 20% of Australians drink at travels that put them at the risk of life time harm from injury or disease.
Drinking wine can affect the liver(肝脏)or cause brain damage, heart disease, high blood pressure and increases the risk of many cancers.
Study author Marianna Virtanen said while wine might help reduce the stress of working long periods of time, risky consumption could lead to difficulties in the workplace, such as poor performance.
The European Union Working Time Directive makes sure that workers in EU countries have the right to work no more than 48 hours a week, including overtime.
"But many people, for example well-educated managers and professionals, work much longer hours to achieve faster promotions, income increases, and more control over work and employment, ” said Prof. Virtanen of the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health.
In Australia, it's recommended that healthy men and women drink no more than two standard drinks a day.
24. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the harm of drinking wine?
A. It can do damage to the brain.
B. It may bring about high blood pressure.
C. It may contribute to working overtime.
D. It can add to the risk of many cancers.
25. From the passage, we can infer that .
A. the study was carried out all over the world
B. Australians drink more wine than Europeans
C. workers in EU countries have to work 48 hours a week
D. many people work longer hours for certain purposes
26. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Long work hours and alcohol abuse are linked.
B. Working long period of time will do harm to our health.
C. To keep healthy men and women should not drink wine.
D. Many workers drink more wine than they should.
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇议论文。调查发现那些一天工作超过8个小时的人更容易过量饮酒。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。A. It can do damage to the brain. 它会对大脑造成损害。B. It may bring about high blood pressure它可能会导致高血压。C. It may contribute to working overtime. 这可能会导致加班。D. It can add to the risk of many cancers. 它会增加许多癌症的风险。根据Drinking wine can affect the liver(肝脏)or cause brain damage, heart disease, high blood pressure and increases the risk of many cancers. 喝酒会影响肝脏或造成脑损伤、心脏病、高血压,增加许多癌症的风险。所以选项ABD是正确的。故选C。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段But many people, for example well-educated managers and professionals, work much longer hours to achieve faster promotions, income increases, and more control over work and employment但是，许多人，例如受过良好教育的经理和专业人士，为了更快地升职、增加收入、更好地做好工作和就业，工作时间要长得多。可推知，不同的人为了某些目的工作更长的时间。故选D。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据Employees who work more than 48 hours a week are 11% more likely to over consume wine than those who work a standard week, Finnish researchers say. 芬兰研究人员称，每周工作超过48小时的员工比每周正常工作的员工多喝11%的葡萄酒。故选A。
【点睛】本文是调查报告类的文章，一般来说，此类文章的主题句放在开头，开门见山说明了哪些人做了什么调查研究，直接点明调查结果，下文是对这一结果的详细解释。因此，概括此类文章的主旨大意即看文章开头。
C
In my ninth-grade World History class, Mrs. Bartlett announced a new project. In groups, we were to create a newspaper around the culture we were studying. On a piece of paper, we wrote the names of three friends we wanted in our group. After collecting all the requests, Mrs. Bartlett informed us that she would take into consideration the names we chose and would let us know the results the next day. I had no doubt that I would get the group of my choice.
The next day, after the bell rang, Mrs. Bartlett called for our attention. She started to call out names. When she reached Group Three, Missy, my best friend's name, was called. The second, third and fourth members of the group were called. My name was not included. There must be some mistakes! Then I heard it. "The last group: Mauro, Juliette, Rachel, Karina."
I could feel the tears well in my eyes. How could I face being in that group-the boy who barely spoke English, the one girl who was always covered by long skirts, and the other girl who wore strange clothes. Oh, how badly I wanted to be with my friends. I fought back tears as I walked up to Mrs. Bartlett. I was determined to convince her I should be in the "good" group. "Why?" I started. She gently placed a hand on my shoulder. "I know what you want, Karina:' she said, "but your group needs you. I need you to help them get a passing grade on this assignment. Only you can help them."
I was shocked.1 was amazed. She had seen something in me I hadn't seen. "Will you help them?" she asked .I stood straighter. "Yes," I replied. I couldn't believe it came out of my mouth, but it did. I bravely walked to my group and sat down.
Halfway through the week, I felt myself enjoying the company of these three misfits(行为怪异的人).I grew sincerely interested in learning something about them. Mauro was struggling with the English language and his lack of friends. Juliette was also alone, because people didn't understand that she was only allowed to wear long skirts or dresses because of her religion. Rachel wanted to be a fashion designer. They weren't misfits, just people that no one cared enough about to try to understand except Mrs. Bartlett.
I did learn something that week.1 was given a chance to see other people in a new light. Mrs. Bartlett gave us an A on that assignment. We should have handed it right back, for she was the one who truly deserved it.
27. Which name is most probably included on the writer's piece of paper?
A. Missy B. Mauro. C. Rachel. D. Juliette.
28. What did the writer think of Mrs Bartlett's arrangement at first?
A. Favorable B. Puzzling. C. Amazing D. Unacceptable
29. It can be learned from the passage that_______.
A. Mrs. Bartlett was not aware of what the writer wanted
B. the writer was mistakenly put into Group Four
C. it turned out that the writer enjoyed being in the group
D. the three misfits liked the way they were treated
30. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A Group of Misfits. B. An A for Mrs. Bartlett.
C. A Challenging Assignment. D. A Wise Choice.
【答案】27. A 28. D 29. C 30. B

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。选项中有两项是多余选项。
A high school student has a science test on Monday but spends most of the weekend playing video games and does not start studying until late Sunday night. This kind of avoiding or delaying of work that needs to be done is called procrastination(拖沓). It has been said that up to 95% of people procrastinate at least sometimes, and about 20% of them do it too much. ___31___
The first factor is how pleasant or unpleasant people find a task. Research shows that people put off tasks they find unpleasant. Someone who loves bicycles might not delay fixing a tire, while someone who does not may put it off.
___32___ For example, those who have low expectations of success are more likely to delay starting a job. On the other hand, those who believe they can perform well take on challenging tasks rather than avoid them.
___33___ Studying hard in high school might not give high school students any immediate rewards; what they learn might not seem useful to the present. Sometimes. it is hard to see the benefit of making an effort when the reward is too far away. ___34___
Lastly, another factor is whether or not people can use self-control. Those who have less self-control can easily be drawn away from their work. Interestingly, age is said to be associated with self-control. ___35___
If procrastination is a problem for you, the first step to reducing it is identifying the reasons behind it. It is only by understanding the roots of your problem that you can choose the appropriate method for yourself.
A. Besides, there is a link between procrastination and how long people must wait before they see the reward for an effort.
B. Research shows that the older people become, the less likely they are to delay doing their work until the last minute.
C. In addition, the amount of confidence they have in their ability to do a task is also related to procrastination.
D. As it is common to most people, how to avoid procrastination has become a major concern.
E. What's more, it has been argued that too much confidence can also lead to procrastination.
F. Although researchers do not agree on all the reasons behind procrastination, there is general agreement about some factors that can explain it.
G. This can explain why many people do not start saving money for their old age when they are young.
【答案】31. F 32. C
33. A 34. G
35. B
【解析】
本文是议论文，短文从四个方面来分析了有拖沓症的原因。一是愉快或不愉快的人们对这项任务的感觉怎样。二是人们的自信程度也与拖延症有关。三是拖延症和人们必须等待多久才能看到努力的回报是有联系的。四是人们自己是否有自控能力。
【31题详解】
承上启下句。根据The first factor is how pleasant or unpleasant people find a task. Research shows that people put off tasks they find unpleasant. 第一个因素是愉快或不愉快的人们对这项任务的感觉怎样。研究表明，人们会推迟他们觉得不愉快的任务。所以上句应该提到拖沓的原因。选项F Although researchers do not agree on all the reasons behind procrastination, there is general agreement about some factors that can explain it.尽管研究人员对拖延症的所有原因并没有达成一致意见，但在一些能够解释拖延症的因素上却达成了普遍共识。故选F。
【32题详解】
主旨句。根据第一段叙述的是第一个拖沓的原因，第二段叙述的是第二个拖沓的原因。根据those who have low expectations of success are more likely to delay starting a job. On the other hand, those who believe they can perform well take on challenging tasks rather than avoid them. 那些对成功期望较低的人更有可能推迟开始工作。另一方面，那些相信自己能出色完成任务的人会接受具有挑战性的任务，而不是逃避它们。这里叙述了两种情况，选项C In addition, the amount of confidence they have in their ability to do a task is also related to procrastination此外，他们对自己完成任务的能力的自信程度也与拖延症有关。故选C。
【33题详解】
主旨句。根据Studying hard in high school might not give high school students any immediate rewards; 在高中努力学习可能不会给高中生任何即时的奖励。这里提到关键词rewards；与选项A Besides, there is a link between procrastination and how long people must wait before they see the reward for an effort. 此外，拖延症和人们必须等待多久才能看到努力的回报是有联系的。这里也到了关键词rewards，故选A。
【34题详解】
承上句。根据it is hard to see the benefit of making an effort when the reward is too far away. 当回报太遥远时，很难看到努力的好处。因此引出选项G：This can explain why many people do not start saving money for their old age when they are young. 这可以解释为什么很多人年轻时不开始存钱养老。前后句式因果关系。故选G。
【35题详解】

The "cello chair"
I have always loved the rich sound of the cello(大提琴). ___56___, as a young journalist in New York in the late 1970s, I never imagined that I could play one
One day, I___57___(mistake) knocked on the wrong door in an office building. An elderly man opened the door, and behind him were a dark cello and a___58___(wood) chair with the design of a lyre (里拉琴) on it.
For a moment, I forgot___59___I was looking for. I asked, "Do you play the cello?"
“Yes," he said. "Do you want to become one of my students?"
“Yes," I responded, almost ___60___thinking.
When I had my first lesson a few days later, I told the teacher, Heinrich Joachim, that I___61___(answer) yes on impulse(冲动)."I'm not sure whether I can be a musician, "I said. Mr. J assured me that with practice and ___62___ (devote) to the instrument, I could become___63___. I told him that I'd once had a beautiful voice, but finally I lost it. "The cello," Mr. J promised, "will give you back your voice." I bought a cello and began to go for weekly lessons. "Don't just listen to the sound. Feel it!" said Mr. J I made steady progress. I studied with him for seven years, until I got ___64___(marry).
Mr. J died in 2002. Soon afterwards, I received a special___65___from his son, Andrew - Mr. J's “cello chair".
【答案】56. However
57. mistakenly
58. wooden 59. what
60. without
61. had answered
62. devotion
63. one 64. married
65. gift
【解析】
本文是记叙文，叙述了作者是一名纽约的年轻记者时，因为敲错门结果结识了自己的老师Heinrich Joachim，在老师帮助下作者学习拉大提琴，后来老师去世后，把自己的“大提琴椅”作为一份礼物的送给了作者。
【56题详解】
考查副词。句意:但是，上世纪70年代末，作为纽约的一名年轻记者，我从未想过自己能拉大提琴。空格前的一句叙述的是：我一直很喜欢大提琴那浑厚的声音。前后是转折关系，空格后有逗号，所以用however但是。故填However。
【57题详解】
考查副词。句意: 有一天，我在办公楼里敲错了门。所给的词mistake名词，错误；动词，弄错。这里不能用动词，因为空格后用的是动词形式。空格后是动词，所以应该用副词修饰动词，是故填mistakenly。
【58题详解】
考查形容词。句意: 一位老人打开门，身后是一把黑色的大提琴和一把木椅，上面有一把里拉琴的图案。空格后是名词，这里用形容词修饰名词，表明是木制的椅子。故填wooden。
【59题详解】
考查宾语从句的连接词。句意:一时，我忘了我在找什么。这里空格前后都是句子，所以空格处缺少连接词，空格后的句子缺少动词forget的宾语，所以应该用what作宾语。故填what。
【60题详解】
考查介词。句意:是的，我几乎不假思索地回答。空格后是动名词的形式，所以用介词。根据上文For a moment, I forgot___4___I was looking for.可知，作者看到大提琴的时候，就忘了在找什么，所以当对方问，你想拉大提琴吗？你想成为我的学生们吗？所以作者就不假思索地回答了。without没有。故填without。
【61题详解】
考查过去完成时。句意: 几天后，当我上第一节课时，我告诉老师Heinrich Joachim我是一时冲动答应了。这里told发生在过去，答应老师做他的学生发生在told之前，也就是说发生在过去的过去。所以应该用过去完成时。故填had answered。
【62题详解】
考查名词。句意: Heinrich Joachim 向我保证，通过练习和对乐器的热爱，我可以成为一名音乐家。and连接的单词前后是并列关系，and前是名词，所以空格处也用名词，devote是动词，其名词是devotion，故填devotion。
【63题详解】
考查代词。句意: Heinrich Joachim 向我保证，通过练习和对乐器的热爱，我可以成为一名音乐家。根据上文I'm not sure whether I can be a musician可知，空格处代替前文的出现的名词a musician，故填one。
【64题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意: 我和他一起学习了七年，直到我结婚。短语get married结婚，强调的是动作。故填married。
【65题详解】
考查名词。句意: Joachim先生于2002年去世。不久之后，我收到了他儿子安德鲁送给我的一份特别的礼物—先生的“大提琴椅”。空前是冠词+形容词，所以空格处必须用名词的单数形式，根据Mr. J's “cello chair".可知，这是老师送给的礼物。故填gift。

66.为积极推进校园文化建设，学校向学生征集“金点子”。假如你是李华，请给学校校园文化建设负责人王老师写一封信，提一个“金点子”井简述理由。
注意:
1.词数80左右，开头已为你写好；

Dear Mr. Wang,
Hearing that our school is asking for students' ideas in order to promote the campus cultural construction,
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yours sincerely
Li Hua
【答案】Dear Mr. Wang,
Hearing that our school is asking for students’ ideas in order to promote the campus cultural construction, I am going to put forward one of mine.
From my perspective, we should put up celebrities' photos with their introduction and quotes on some of our school walls. The merits of this practice are evident. Firstly, it can create a cultural atmosphere, making the campus more attractive. Secondly, these photos can hopefully serve as spiritual motivation for us students and thus stimulate us to study harder or even make a commitment to contributing in different fields.
I would appreciate it if you could adopt my proposal.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇应用文。是给王老师的一封信。
【详解】为积极推进校园文化建设，学校向学生征集“金点子”。信中李华叙述自己的金点子是什么。紧接着叙述这个点子的重要意义，为了条理清楚可以用Firstly, Secondly…来叙述。要句子的时态及主谓一致的语法，所写的句子应该符合英语的表达习惯。
【点睛】短文用了一些短语：如：put forward；put up；make a commitment；in order to等。
用了一些高级句式：Firstly, it can create a cultural atmosphere, making the campus more attractive.用了making…分词做结果状语；I would appreciate it if you could adopt my proposal.用了if引导的从句。

67.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。
Arthur, a young painter, went to France to surround himself with beauty and inspiration. He lived on the cheap, painted every day, visited museums, traveled to picturesque places, bravely spoke to everyone he met, and showed his work to anyone who would look at it. One afternoon, he struck up a conversation at a cafe with a group of charming young people, who turned out to be some fancy nobles.They took a liking to Arthur and invited him to a party that weekend in a castle in the Loire Valley. They said this was going to be the party of the year. It would be attended by the rich and famous and by several crowned heads of Europe. Best of all, it was a masquerade ball(化妆舞会)."Dress up, " they said, "and join us!"
Excited, Arthur worked all week on a costume(服装)that he was certain would be highly impressive. He held back on neither the details nor the imagination of this creation. Then he rented a car and drove three hours to the castle. He changed into his costume in the car and went up the castle steps. Arthur entered the ballroom, proud.
Upon arrival, he immediately realized his mistake.
This was indeed a costume party but this was a themed costume party. The theme was “a medieval court". All around him, the wealthy and beautiful were dressed in fancy clothes, wearing sparkling jewels. Arthur, on the other hand, was dressed as a Lobster (龙虾), wearing a red coat, red tights, red ballet slippers, and giant red claws, Also, his face was painted red. And he was the only American in the room, too
注意:

Paragraph l:
He stood at the top of the steps for one long, frightful moment._________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
As he moved into the crowd, a silence fell. __________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】He stood at the top of the steps for one long frightful moment. Running away in shame seemed like the easiest response. But he didn't run. Somehow, he found his determination. He'd come this far, after all. He'd worked really hard to make this costume, and he was proud of it. He took a deep breath and walked onto the dance floor.
As he moved into the crowd, a silence fell. The dancing stopped. The other guests gathered around Arthur. Finally someone asked him what on earth he was. He bowed deeply and announced, "I am the court lobster." Everybody laughed out of joy They loved him. They loved his sweetness, his weirdness(怪诞), his giant red claws, and his skinny legs in his bright tights. He made the party. He danced with many fancy nobles in fancy clothes and had great fun.
【解析】
【分析】
Arthur在咖啡馆遇到了一些贵族，他们邀请他参加化妆舞会，于是他穿着盛装到达舞会现场后发现，他弄错了，这次的化妆舞会有一个主题“一个中世纪的法院”，很显然他穿的衣服不符合舞会的主题。
【详解】首先理解所给的原文人物之间的关系及故事发生的地点。Arthur在咖啡馆遇到了一些贵族，他们邀请他参加化妆舞会，于是他穿着盛装到达舞会现场后发现，他弄错了，这次的化妆舞会有一个主题“一个中世纪的法院”，很显然他穿的衣服不符合舞会的主题。续写在这种情况下，他来不及在去换衣服，他如何应对这种场面，要求进行合理的推理写出合乎逻辑的下文。
【点睛】1.通读全文，读懂原文
通读全文首先要解决好五个W和一个H的问题，即理清人物who、地点where、时间when、事件what、原因why及怎样发展how。
2.构思情节，谋篇布局
按照原文中事件发生的逻辑性，构思好情节发展，这个发展须符合情节内在的逻辑。因为这不是写科幻小说，不是写神话，因此应该符合现实发生的真实性。所以这个环节的主要任务是谋篇布局。依照符合故事情节发展的内在逻辑推进下去。所写的第一段和第二段要衔接紧密，相互关联，不能独立存在。
3.理清逻辑，优化语言
这一部分侧重点为语言逻辑，词句结构都必须符合故事中情景。写作不必追求高大上的词汇，相反，朴实自然、地道、贴切的词语便是好的词语。续写要抓住续这一核心，按照情节的发展进行延续，写作手法上必须以叙为主，描写上以动作描写为重心，情节的发展合乎逻辑地推进。

第二部分:阅读理解(共两节，满分35分)
第一节(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
It may not come as a surprise but the world as a whole is getting richer. Some people have more disposable(可自由支配的)income to spend on luxuries such as holidays, cars, TVs and smart phones. Recent data has shown that the number of people living in extreme poverty has halved in recent decades. So should we celebrate the fact that more of us now have a better standard of living?
Maybe not. While the gap between the rich and the poor in some countries is narrowing, there is still a lot of inequality in other places-some people have a lot of money and opportunities and others don't. A recent report by Oxfam and Credit Suisse revealed how divided many of us are when it comes to wealth. A lot of the money in the world is in the hands of very few people. In fact, 48% of global wealth is owned by the richest l% of the population.
But some countries are attempting to reduce this inequality and make the poor, less poor. According to David Bryer from Oxfam, Brazil has been taking "some really sensible measures--measures around having more progressive tax, around investing in a higher minimum wage and investing in central public services." Having a higher minimum wage can help people eat better and seek a better education. And more people with more money buy more things-and factories can produce more. In turn, a factory which produces more will need more workers. So, more jobs are created.
Other wealthy individuals are doing their bit to help reduce inequality. Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, earned a lot of money from his company but when he retired, he and his wife Melinda, created a foundation to help the poor. He thinks that rich people should, of course, pay their taxes but he also advises that they should all "look at taking their wealth and being philanthropic (乐善好施的 ) , both in their own country and to help the global poorest."
Bill Gates feels that giving money to help poor people is "fulfilling". But if other super-rich people don't want to experience this fulfillment then, according to Oxfam, very soon the wealthiest l% will soon own more money than the rest of the world's population. Do you think that is fair?
21. The first two paragraphs mainly tell us _________.
A. the poverty and inequality in a richer world
B. some sensible measures to make the 'poor less poor
C. the increase of global wealth in recent decades
D. the narrowing gap between the rich and the poor
22. What is the government in Brazil doing to the minimum wage?
A. Limiting it. B. Increasing it.
C. Making it lower. D. Setting it free.
23. What do Bill and Melinda Gates think very rich people should do with some of their money?
A. Spend it on their luxuries. B. Give it to help the poor.
C. Invest it in their business. D. Hand it over to their children.
【答案】21. A 22. B 23. B
【解析】

Too much work and too much wine go together like biscuits and cheese, a new international study finds.
Employees who work more than 48 hours a week are 11% more likely to over consume wine than those who work a standard week, Finnish researchers say.
The study looked at more than 300,000 people in Australia, Europe and North America. No differences were seen between men and women, says the study.
Risky wine consumption is considered as more than 14 drinks a week for women and more than 21 drinks a week for men. About 20% of Australians drink at travels that put them at the risk of life time harm from injury or disease.
Drinking wine can affect the liver(肝脏)or cause brain damage, heart disease, high blood pressure and increases the risk of many cancers.
Study author Marianna Virtanen said while wine might help reduce the stress of working long periods of time, risky consumption could lead to difficulties in the workplace, such as poor performance.
The European Union Working Time Directive makes sure that workers in EU countries have the right to work no more than 48 hours a week, including overtime.
"But many people, for example well-educated managers and professionals, work much longer hours to achieve faster promotions, income increases, and more control over work and employment, ” said Prof. Virtanen of the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health.
In Australia, it's recommended that healthy men and women drink no more than two standard drinks a day.
24. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the harm of drinking wine?
A. It can do damage to the brain.
B. It may bring about high blood pressure.
C. It may contribute to working overtime.
D. It can add to the risk of many cancers.
25. From the passage, we can infer that .
A. the study was carried out all over the world
B. Australians drink more wine than Europeans
C. workers in EU countries have to work 48 hours a week
D. many people work longer hours for certain purposes
26. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Long work hours and alcohol abuse are linked.
B. Working long period of time will do harm to our health.
C. To keep healthy men and women should not drink wine.
D. Many workers drink more wine than they should.
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇议论文。调查发现那些一天工作超过8个小时的人更容易过量饮酒。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。A. It can do damage to the brain. 它会对大脑造成损害。B. It may bring about high blood pressure它可能会导致高血压。C. It may contribute to working overtime. 这可能会导致加班。D. It can add to the risk of many cancers. 它会增加许多癌症的风险。根据Drinking wine can affect the liver(肝脏)or cause brain damage, heart disease, high blood pressure and increases the risk of many cancers. 喝酒会影响肝脏或造成脑损伤、心脏病、高血压,增加许多癌症的风险。所以选项ABD是正确的。故选C。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段But many people, for example well-educated managers and professionals, work much longer hours to achieve faster promotions, income increases, and more control over work and employment但是，许多人，例如受过良好教育的经理和专业人士，为了更快地升职、增加收入、更好地做好工作和就业，工作时间要长得多。可推知，不同的人为了某些目的工作更长的时间。故选D。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据Employees who work more than 48 hours a week are 11% more likely to over consume wine than those who work a standard week, Finnish researchers say. 芬兰研究人员称，每周工作超过48小时的员工比每周正常工作的员工多喝11%的葡萄酒。故选A。
【点睛】本文是调查报告类的文章，一般来说，此类文章的主题句放在开头，开门见山说明了哪些人做了什么调查研究，直接点明调查结果，下文是对这一结果的详细解释。因此，概括此类文章的主旨大意即看文章开头。

In my ninth-grade World History class, Mrs. Bartlett announced a new project. In groups, we were to create a newspaper around the culture we were studying. On a piece of paper, we wrote the names of three friends we wanted in our group. After collecting all the requests, Mrs. Bartlett informed us that she would take into consideration the names we chose and would let us know the results the next day. I had no doubt that I would get the group of my choice.
The next day, after the bell rang, Mrs. Bartlett called for our attention. She started to call out names. When she reached Group Three, Missy, my best friend's name, was called. The second, third and fourth members of the group were called. My name was not included. There must be some mistakes! Then I heard it. "The last group: Mauro, Juliette, Rachel, Karina."
I could feel the tears well in my eyes. How could I face being in that group-the boy who barely spoke English, the one girl who was always covered by long skirts, and the other girl who wore strange clothes. Oh, how badly I wanted to be with my friends. I fought back tears as I walked up to Mrs. Bartlett. I was determined to convince her I should be in the "good" group. "Why?" I started. She gently placed a hand on my shoulder. "I know what you want, Karina:' she said, "but your group needs you. I need you to help them get a passing grade on this assignment. Only you can help them."
I was shocked.1 was amazed. She had seen something in me I hadn't seen. "Will you help them?" she asked .I stood straighter. "Yes," I replied. I couldn't believe it came out of my mouth, but it did. I bravely walked to my group and sat down.
Halfway through the week, I felt myself enjoying the company of these three misfits(行为怪异的人).I grew sincerely interested in learning something about them. Mauro was struggling with the English language and his lack of friends. Juliette was also alone, because people didn't understand that she was only allowed to wear long skirts or dresses because of her religion. Rachel wanted to be a fashion designer. They weren't misfits, just people that no one cared enough about to try to understand except Mrs. Bartlett.
I did learn something that week.1 was given a chance to see other people in a new light. Mrs. Bartlett gave us an A on that assignment. We should have handed it right back, for she was the one who truly deserved it.
27. Which name is most probably included on the writer's piece of paper?
A. Missy B. Mauro. C. Rachel. D. Juliette.
28. What did the writer think of Mrs Bartlett's arrangement at first?
A. Favorable B. Puzzling. C. Amazing D. Unacceptable
29. It can be learned from the passage that_______.
A. Mrs. Bartlett was not aware of what the writer wanted
B. the writer was mistakenly put into Group Four
C. it turned out that the writer enjoyed being in the group
D. the three misfits liked the way they were treated
30. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A high school student has a science test on Monday but spends most of the weekend playing video games and does not start studying until late Sunday night. This kind of avoiding or delaying of work that needs to be done is called procrastination(拖沓). It has been said that up to 95% of people procrastinate at least sometimes, and about 20% of them do it too much. ___31___
The first factor is how pleasant or unpleasant people find a task. Research shows that people put off tasks they find unpleasant. Someone who loves bicycles might not delay fixing a tire, while someone who does not may put it off.
___32___ For example, those who have low expectations of success are more likely to delay starting a job. On the other hand, those who believe they can perform well take on challenging tasks rather than avoid them.
___33___ Studying hard in high school might not give high school students any immediate rewards; what they learn might not seem useful to the present. Sometimes. it is hard to see the benefit of making an effort when the reward is too far away. ___34___
Lastly, another factor is whether or not people can use self-control. Those who have less self-control can easily be drawn away from their work. Interestingly, age is said to be associated with self-control. ___35___
If procrastination is a problem for you, the first step to reducing it is identifying the reasons behind it. It is only by understanding the roots of your problem that you can choose the appropriate method for yourself.
A. Besides, there is a link between procrastination and how long people must wait before they see the reward for an effort.
B. Research shows that the older people become, the less likely they are to delay doing their work until the last minute.
C. In addition, the amount of confidence they have in their ability to do a task is also related to procrastination.
D. As it is common to most people, how to avoid procrastination has become a major concern.
E. What's more, it has been argued that too much confidence can also lead to procrastination.
F. Although researchers do not agree on all the reasons behind procrastination, there is general agreement about some factors that can explain it.

本文是议论文，短文从四个方面来分析了有拖沓症的原因。一是愉快或不愉快的人们对这项任务的感觉怎样。二是人们的自信程度也与拖延症有关。三是拖延症和人们必须等待多久才能看到努力的回报是有联系的。四是人们自己是否有自控能力。
【31题详解】
承上启下句。根据The first factor is how pleasant or unpleasant people find a task. Research shows that people put off tasks they find unpleasant. 第一个因素是愉快或不愉快的人们对这项任务的感觉怎样。研究表明，人们会推迟他们觉得不愉快的任务。所以上句应该提到拖沓的原因。选项F Although researchers do not agree on all the reasons behind procrastination, there is general agreement about some factors that can explain it.尽管研究人员对拖延症的所有原因并没有达成一致意见，但在一些能够解释拖延症的因素上却达成了普遍共识。故选F。
【32题详解】
主旨句。根据第一段叙述的是第一个拖沓的原因，第二段叙述的是第二个拖沓的原因。根据those who have low expectations of success are more likely to delay starting a job. On the other hand, those who believe they can perform well take on challenging tasks rather than avoid them. 那些对成功期望较低的人更有可能推迟开始工作。另一方面，那些相信自己能出色完成任务的人会接受具有挑战性的任务，而不是逃避它们。这里叙述了两种情况，选项C In addition, the amount of confidence they have in their ability to do a task is also related to procrastination此外，他们对自己完成任务的能力的自信程度也与拖延症有关。故选C。
【33题详解】
主旨句。根据Studying hard in high school might not give high school students any immediate rewards; 在高中努力学习可能不会给高中生任何即时的奖励。这里提到关键词rewards；与选项A Besides, there is a link between procrastination and how long people must wait before they see the reward for an effort. 此外，拖延症和人们必须等待多久才能看到努力的回报是有联系的。这里也到了关键词rewards，故选A。
【34题详解】
承上句。根据it is hard to see the benefit of making an effort when the reward is too far away. 当回报太遥远时，很难看到努力的好处。因此引出选项G：This can explain why many people do not start saving money for their old age when they are young. 这可以解释为什么很多人年轻时不开始存钱养老。前后句式因果关系。故选G。
【35题详解】
承上句。根据Interestingly, age is said to be associated with self-control. 有趣的是，据说年龄与自我控制有关。后面叙述年龄与自控的关系。选项B. Research shows that the older people become, the less likely they are to delay doing their work until the last minute. 研究表明，年纪越大的人越不可能把工作拖到最后时刻。前后句是解释说明的关系。故选B。

【解析】
本文是记叙文，叙述了作者是一名纽约的年轻记者时，因为敲错门结果结识了自己的老师Heinrich Joachim，在老师帮助下作者学习拉大提琴，后来老师去世后，把自己的“大提琴椅”作为一份礼物的送给了作者。
【56题详解】
考查副词。句意:但是，上世纪70年代末，作为纽约的一名年轻记者，我从未想过自己能拉大提琴。空格前的一句叙述的是：我一直很喜欢大提琴那浑厚的声音。前后是转折关系，空格后有逗号，所以用however但是。故填However。
【57题详解】
考查副词。句意: 有一天，我在办公楼里敲错了门。所给的词mistake名词，错误；动词，弄错。这里不能用动词，因为空格后用的是动词形式。空格后是动词，所以应该用副词修饰动词，是故填mistakenly。
【58题详解】
考查形容词。句意: 一位老人打开门，身后是一把黑色的大提琴和一把木椅，上面有一把里拉琴的图案。空格后是名词，这里用形容词修饰名词，表明是木制的椅子。故填wooden。
【59题详解】
考查宾语从句的连接词。句意:一时，我忘了我在找什么。这里空格前后都是句子，所以空格处缺少连接词，空格后的句子缺少动词forget的宾语，所以应该用what作宾语。故填what。
【60题详解】
考查介词。句意:是的，我几乎不假思索地回答。空格后是动名词的形式，所以用介词。根据上文For a moment, I forgot___4___I was looking for.可知，作者看到大提琴的时候，就忘了在找什么，所以当对方问，你想拉大提琴吗？你想成为我的学生们吗？所以作者就不假思索地回答了。without没有。故填without。
【61题详解】
考查过去完成时。句意: 几天后，当我上第一节课时，我告诉老师Heinrich Joachim我是一时冲动答应了。这里told发生在过去，答应老师做他的学生发生在told之前，也就是说发生在过去的过去。所以应该用过去完成时。故填had answered。
【62题详解】
考查名词。句意: Heinrich Joachim 向我保证，通过练习和对乐器的热爱，我可以成为一名音乐家。and连接的单词前后是并列关系，and前是名词，所以空格处也用名词，devote是动词，其名词是devotion，故填devotion。
【63题详解】
考查代词。句意: Heinrich Joachim 向我保证，通过练习和对乐器的热爱，我可以成为一名音乐家。根据上文I'm not sure whether I can be a musician可知，空格处代替前文的出现的名词a musician，故填one。
【64题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意: 我和他一起学习了七年，直到我结婚。短语get married结婚，强调的是动作。故填married。
【65题详解】
考查名词。句意: Joachim先生于2002年去世。不久之后，我收到了他儿子安德鲁送给我的一份特别的礼物—先生的“大提琴椅”。空前是冠词+形容词，所以空格处必须用名词的单数形式，根据Mr. J's “cello chair".可知，这是老师送给的礼物。故填gift。

Dear Mr. Wang,
Hearing that our school is asking for students' ideas in order to promote the campus cultural construction,
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yours sincerely
Li Hua
【答案】Dear Mr. Wang,
Hearing that our school is asking for students’ ideas in order to promote the campus cultural construction, I am going to put forward one of mine.
From my perspective, we should put up celebrities' photos with their introduction and quotes on some of our school walls. The merits of this practice are evident. Firstly, it can create a cultural atmosphere, making the campus more attractive. Secondly, these photos can hopefully serve as spiritual motivation for us students and thus stimulate us to study harder or even make a commitment to contributing in different fields.
I would appreciate it if you could adopt my proposal.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇应用文。是给王老师的一封信。
【详解】为积极推进校园文化建设，学校向学生征集“金点子”。信中李华叙述自己的金点子是什么。紧接着叙述这个点子的重要意义，为了条理清楚可以用Firstly, Secondly…来叙述。要句子的时态及主谓一致的语法，所写的句子应该符合英语的表达习惯。
【点睛】短文用了一些短语：如：put forward；put up；make a commitment；in order to等。
用了一些高级句式：Firstly, it can create a cultural atmosphere, making the campus more attractive.用了making…分词做结果状语；I would appreciate it if you could adopt my proposal.用了if引导的从句。

He lived on the cheap, painted every day, visited museums, traveled to picturesque places, bravely spoke to everyone he met, and showed his work to anyone who would look at it. One afternoon, he struck up a conversation at a cafe with a group of charming young people, who turned out to be some fancy nobles.They took a liking to Arthur and invited him to a party that weekend in a castle in the Loire Valley. They said this was going to be the party of the year. It would be attended by the rich and famous and by several crowned heads of Europe. Best of all, it was a masquerade ball(化妆舞会)."Dress up, " they said, "and join us!"
Excited, Arthur worked all week on a costume(服装)that he was certain would be highly impressive. He held back on neither the details nor the imagination of this creation. Then he rented a car and drove three hours to the castle. He changed into his costume in the car and went up the castle steps. Arthur entered the ballroom, proud.
Upon arrival, he immediately realized his mistake.
This was indeed a costume party but this was a themed costume party. The theme was “a medieval court". All around him, the wealthy and beautiful were dressed in fancy clothes, wearing sparkling jewels. Arthur, on the other hand, was dressed as a Lobster (龙虾), wearing a red coat, red tights, red ballet slippers, and giant red claws, Also, his face was painted red. And he was the only American in the room, too

Paragraph l:
He stood at the top of the steps for one long, frightful moment._________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
As he moved into the crowd, a silence fell. __________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】He stood at the top of the steps for one long frightful moment. Running away in shame seemed like the easiest response. But he didn't run. Somehow, he found his determination. He'd come this far, after all. He'd worked really hard to make this costume, and he was proud of it. He took a deep breath and walked onto the dance floor.
As he moved into the crowd, a silence fell. The dancing stopped. The other guests gathered around Arthur. Finally someone asked him what on earth he was. He bowed deeply and announced, "I am the court lobster." Everybody laughed out of joy They loved him. They loved his sweetness, his weirdness(怪诞), his giant red claws, and his skinny legs in his bright tights. He made the party. He danced with many fancy nobles in fancy clothes and had great fun.
【解析】
【分析】
Arthur在咖啡馆遇到了一些贵族，他们邀请他参加化妆舞会，于是他穿着盛装到达舞会现场后发现，他弄错了，这次的化妆舞会有一个主题“一个中世纪的法院”，很显然他穿的衣服不符合舞会的主题。
【详解】首先理解所给的原文人物之间的关系及故事发生的地点。Arthur在咖啡馆遇到了一些贵族，他们邀请他参加化妆舞会，于是他穿着盛装到达舞会现场后发现，他弄错了，这次的化妆舞会有一个主题“一个中世纪的法院”，很显然他穿的衣服不符合舞会的主题。续写在这种情况下，他来不及在去换衣服，他如何应对这种场面，要求进行合理的推理写出合乎逻辑的下文。
【点睛】1.通读全文，读懂原文
通读全文首先要解决好五个W和一个H的问题，即理清人物who、地点where、时间when、事件what、原因why及怎样发展how。
2.构思情节，谋篇布局
按照原文中事件发生的逻辑性，构思好情节发展，这个发展须符合情节内在的逻辑。因为这不是写科幻小说，不是写神话，因此应该符合现实发生的真实性。所以这个环节的主要任务是谋篇布局。依照符合故事情节发展的内在逻辑推进下去。所写的第一段和第二段要衔接紧密，相互关联，不能独立存在。
3.理清逻辑，优化语言
这一部分侧重点为语言逻辑，词句结构都必须符合故事中情景。写作不必追求高大上的词汇，相反，朴实自然、地道、贴切的词语便是好的词语。续写要抓住续这一核心，按照情节的发展进行延续，写作手法上必须以叙为主，描写上以动作描写为重心，情节的发展合乎逻辑地推进。
