第一部分:知识运用(共两节,45分)
第一节语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,共15分)
阅读下列短文,根据短文内容填空。
在未给提示词的空白处仅填写 1个适当的单词,在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。
A
At my first class in the Forks High School, Mr. Banner,my English teacher sent me to an empty desk at the back without____1____ (introduce) me to the class. It was harder for my new classmates ____2____(stare) at me in the back, but somehow, they managed. I kept my eyes down on the reading list the teacher had given me. It was ___3___(fair) basic: Bronte,Shakespeare,Chaucer, Faulkner. I’d already read everything. That was comforting… and boring.
【答案】1. introducing
2. to stare
3. fairly
【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。
讲述的是作者在福克斯高中上第一堂课的情景。
【1题详解】
考查动名词。
句意:在福克斯高中的第一堂课,我的英语老师班纳先生让我坐到后面的一张空桌子上,没有向班上同学介绍我。
without在这里是介词,介词后面跟名词或者代词,所以动词要用其动名词形式,故填introducing。
【2题详解】
考查不定式。
句意:坐在后面,增大了我的这班新同学盯着我看的难度,但是
无论如何他们还是做到了。
这里用了it is +adj+for sb to do的句式,it为形式主语,空格处要用不定式做真正的主语,故填to stare。
【3题详解】
考查副词。
句意:这个阅读清单是相当基础的:勃朗特、莎士比亚、乔叟、福克纳。
空格处修饰形容词basic, 要用副词修饰形容词,故填fairly。
B
4.Your teeth may be part of your smile,_______they have a more important job—they are the first step in the process of digestion. You have three _________(kind) of teeth. In the very front of your mouth are eight flat, thin teeth called incisors. They are used for cutting and biting food. Next to these are pointed teeth called canines, _________ also help you tear food. The remaining teeth are molars. These teeth have flat tops for crushing and grinding the food.
【答案】4. but 5. kinds
6. which
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。
介绍了牙齿的三个种类和功能。
【4题详解】
考查连词。
句意:你的牙齿可能是你笑容的一部分,但是他们有一个更重要的工作:它们是消化过程的第一步。
空格处前后为两个完整的句子,所以要填一个连词连接这两个句子,根据句意,前后为转折关系,故填but。
【5题详解】
考查名词单复数。
句意:你有三种牙齿。
kind在这里表“种类”,是可数名词,由three修饰,所以要用其复数形式。
故填 kinds。
【6题详解】
考查非限定性定语从句。
句意:这些牙齿旁边是犬齿,这些犬齿也可以帮助你撕裂食物。
分析句子可知,空格处所在的句子为定语从句,先行词为canines,指
物。
关系词在从句中做主语。
所以要用which引导这个非限定性定语从句,故填which。
【点睛】定语从句分为限制性和非限制性两种。
限制性定语从句不可缺少先行词,去掉它主句意思往往就不明确了,它与主句之间通常不用逗号分开;非限制性定语从句是对先行词的附加说明,去掉它也不会影响主句的意思,它与主句之间通常用逗号分开。
限制性定语从句的先行词往往是某一个词,但非限制性定语从句的先行词可以是一个词,也可以是句子的一部分,甚至是整个主句。
并且that 不可引导非限制性定语从句。
第3小题中,根据上述区别可以看到从句与主句之间用逗号分开,由此判断空格处引导的是非限定性定语从句。
分析可知先行词为canines,指物,关系词在从
句中做主语,只能用which引导这个非限定性定语从句。
C
The Beijing Vanke-Shijinglong Ski Resortis located___5___Yanqing District,a national demonstration area for ecological construction. With Longqing Gorge to its east and Guanting Reservoir to its west, it has fresh air and an ___6___(impress) environment.________7________(build) in 1999, it was the first large ski resort to be built near Beijing.In 2016,a massive renovation project ____8____(start) by Vanke, the Beijing Badaling Tourism General Company, and the original Beijing Shijinglong Ski Resort.
【答案】5. in 6. impressive
7. Built 8. was started
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。
介绍了北京万科—石景龙滑雪场。
【5题详解】
考查固定搭配。
句意:北京万科—石景龙滑雪场位于国家生态建设示范区延庆区。
be located in为固定搭配,意为“位于….”,故填in。
【6题详解】
考查形容词。
句意:东临龙清峡,西至官厅水库,这里空气清新,环境令人印象深刻。
修饰名词environment应该用形容词,故填impressive。
【7题详解】
考查非谓语动词。
句意:建于1999年,它是北京附近第一个大型滑雪场。
分析句子可知本句的谓语是was,built在做中为非谓语,与其逻辑主语it之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,所以要用其过去分词表被动。
故填Built。
【8题详解】
考查语态和时态。
句意:2016年,万科,北京八达岭旅游总公司和原北京石景龙滑雪场启动了一个大规模的翻新工程。
start在句中做谓语。
根据时间2016,要用一般过去时态。
主语a massive renovation project和start之间是被动关系,要用被动语态。
主语a massive renovation project是单数,谓语动词也要用单数。
故填was started。
【点睛】在语法填空题中,如果所给的词为动词,要首先考虑动词是否是句子的谓语动词,如果是,那么请考虑谓语动词的适当形式(注意四类助动词do类、have 类、will类和be类)分别构成不同的时态语态情态语气和主谓一致。
如果不能做谓语动词,再考虑非谓语动词三种形式:to do,doing和done。
如果不是非谓语也不是谓语,那么就要考虑变形了,一般的变形动词向名词变形居多。
第3小题中,句子的谓语是was,built在做中为非谓语。
build与其逻辑主语it之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,所以要用其过去分词表被动。
故填Built。
第4小题中,分析可知start就做谓语,要考虑时态,语态和主谓一致。
根据时间2016,要用一般过去时。
主语a massive renovation project和start之间是被动关系,要用被动语态。
主语a massive renovation project是单数,谓语动词也要用单数。
最终得到答案was started。
第二节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,共30分)
阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Half a Day
I walked alongside my father, holding his right hand. All my clothes were new: the black shoes, the green school uniform, and the red cap. They did not make me happy, however, as this was the day I was to be thrown into school for the first time.
"Why school?" I asked my father. "What have I done?”
"I'm not punishing you," he said, laughing. "School's not a punishment. It's a place that makes useful men out of boys. Don’t you want to be useful like your brothers?"
I was not convinced. I did not believe there was really any good to be had in tearing me away from my home and throwing me into the huge, high-walled building.
When we arrived at the gate we could see the courtyard, vast and full of boys and girls. "Go in by you,” said my father, "and join them. Put a smile on your face and be a good example to others. "
I hesitated and squeezed his hand firmly, but he gently pushed me from him. “Be a man”, he said. "Today you truly begin life. You will find me waiting for you when it's time to leave. "
I took a few steps. Then the faces of the boys and girls came into view. I did not know a single one of them, and none of them knew me. I
felt I was a stranger who had lost his way. But then some boys began to glance at me in curiosity, and one of them came over and asked, "Who brought you?"
"My father,” I whispered.
"My father's dead,” he said simply.
I did not know what to say. The gate was now closed. Some of the children burst into tears. The bell rang. A lady came along and said, "This is your new home. There are mothers and fathers here, too. Everything that is enjoyable and beneficial is here. So dry your tears and face life joyfully. "
Well, it seemed that my misgivings had had no basis. From the first moments I made many friends. I had never imagined school would have this rich variety of experiences.

A. happy
B. embarrassed
C. upset
D. excited

根据第一段中的They did not make me happy, however, as this was the day I was to be thrown into school for the first time.可知穿新衣服并没有让作者开心,因为他要第一次被扔进学校了。
根据第四段I did not believe there was really any good to be had in tearing me away from my home and throwing me into the huge, high-walled building.可知作者不相信将他从家中撕裂并被扔进这座巨大的高墙建筑(也就是学校)中真的有什么好处。

【33题详解】
细节理解题。

”也就是作者的父亲让他面带微笑,故选A项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。
根据最后两段中的的A lady came along and said, "This is your new home. …and face life joyfully. "Well, it seemed that my misgivings had had no basis. From the first moments I made many friends.可知老师过来对作者他们说了一番话,作者听了这番话之后觉得之前自己的顾虑是毫无根据的,打消了顾虑。
他一开始就交到了很多朋友。
这说明老师帮助作者在学校的第一天过得很好,他的同学也和他成为了朋友。
故选A项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。
根据最后一段. From the first moments I made many friends. I had never imagined school would have this rich variety of experiences.可知从一开始我就结交了很多朋友。

Learning, Fast and Deep
Over the past five years researchers in artificial intelligence have become the rock stars of the technology world. A branch of AI known as deep learning, which uses neural(神经的) networks to scan through large volumes of data looking for patterns, has proven so useful that skilled practitioners can command high six-figure salaries to build software for Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google.
The standard route into these jobs has been a PhD in computer science from one of America’s top universities. Earning one takes years and requires a personality suited to academia, which is rare among more normal folk.
That is changing.
Last month fast.ai, a non-profit education organization based in San Francisco, kicked off the third year of its course in deep learning. Since its foundation it has attracted more than 100,000 students around the globe from India to Nigeria. The course and others like it, come with a simple idea: there is no need to spend years obtaining a PhD in order to practise deep learning. Creating software that learns can be taught as a craft, not as a high intellectual pursuit to be undertaken only in an ivory tower. Fast.ai’s course can be completed in just seven weeks.
To make it accessible to anyone who wants to learn how to build AI software is the aim of Jeremy Howard, who founded fast.ai with Rachel
Thomas, a mathematician. He say s school mathematics is sufficient. “No. Greek. Letters,” Mr. Howard intones, pounding the table with his fist for punctuation.
Some experts worry that this will serve only to create a flood of unreliable AI systems which will be useless at best and dangerous at worst. In the earliest days of the Internet, only a select few nerds, namely computerholics with specific skills, could build applications. Not many people used them. Then the invention of the World Wide Web led to an explosion of web pages, both good and bad. But it was only by opening up to all that the Internet gave birth to online shopping, instant global communications and search. If Mr. Howard and others have their way, making the development of AI software easier will bring forth a new crop of fruit of a different kind.

推理判断题。
根据前文To make it accessible to anyone who wants to learn …He says school mathematics is sufficient.可知让深度学习不再神秘是杰里米·霍华德的目标,为此,他和数学家雷切尔·托马斯一起创立了fast.ai,让任何想学习编写AI软件的人都能学习这门技术。
霍华德说有中学数学知识就足够了。
这说明fast.ai的课程很简单,仅需要中学数学知识。
因此霍华德说“No. Greek. Letters(没有,希腊,字母)是想说fast, ai的深度学习课程很简单。
故选A项。
