To develop one's taste in English, the most effective way is to read English books extensively. Yet one may be at a loss to choose the appropriate books, especially as a beginner. As a native Spanish, I would like to share some of my experience.
My first English novel was Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, recommended by many English teachers and professors as an ideal book for English learners. But my experience was somewhat disastrous. I had great difficulty in understanding the novel, let alone enjoying it. It's not the vocabulary that troubled me, but rather the way Austen constructs sentences, and her way of thinking, which seemed too remote to me at that time. My fading enthusiasm was much recovered after reading Hemingway's novel A Farewell to Arms. No long and complicated sentences. And I particularly liked his brief and straightforward (简洁的) style. So my first suggestion is, as a beginner, you'd better choose contemporary novels instead of classical ones. However, if you restrict yourself to novels you will miss a lot of treasures. English essays can at once inform you, entertain you, and improve your taste in English. The best example is Bertrand Russell's work. Its language is plain, yet you cannot help feeling the elegance and the peculiar sense of humor. His simple language enables his philosophy within the reach of ordinary people. Here comes my second suggestion — essays are indispensable.
Never follow others' recommendations and opinions blindly, however famous or influential (有很大影响的) the person might be. We should be open to various ideas, but always think and determine for ourselves. As a saying goes, one man's meat is another man's poison. With that in mind, we are bound to find out our favorite writers through reading and develop our fine taste in English.
1．What made the first English novel that the author read hard to understand? A．Complicated conversations.
B．Sentences and Austen's thinking pattern.
C．The old-fashioned vocabulary.
D．Not knowing the social background.
2．Which can best replace the underlined word "indispensable"?
A．Necessary B．Challenging C．Relevant D．Inspirational 3．What advice does the author give in the last paragraph?
A．Choose books that challenge us most.
B．Read books that are instructive.
C．Don't be affected by others' choices.
D．Compare books before buying.
4．What is the author's purpose of writing the passage?
A．Give comments on literature works.
B．Tell beginners how to choose English books.
C．Encourage people to read more English books.
D．Recommend first class books to English learners.

1．B

本文是一篇说明文。

文章主要就如何选择适合自己的英文读物，作者给出了自己的建议。

1．
细节理解题。

根据第二段中的“It's not the vocabulary that troubled me，but…which seemed too remote to me at that time. ”(困扰我的不是她的词汇，而是奥斯汀的造句方式，以及她的思维方式，在当时我觉得这些都太遥远了。

)可知，作者的第一本英文读物《傲慢与偏见》的句子结构和作者简·奥斯汀的思维方式使作者很难读懂这本书。

故选B。

2．
词义猜测题。

根据第三段“English essays can at once inform you, entertain you, and improve your taste in English. The best example is Bertrand Russell's work. …His simple language enables his philosophy with in the reach of ordinary people. ”（英语短文可以立即给你信息，娱乐你，提高你的英语品位。

最好的例子就是伯特兰·罗素的作品。

它的语言平淡无奇，但你却不禁感受到它的优雅和独特的幽默感。

他简单的语言使他的哲学通俗易懂。

）可知，画线词前面的部分主要讲的是阅读英语文章的好处，由此可知此处指的应是文章也是必不可少的。

故画线词的意思应是“必不可少的，必需的”，与A项necessary的意思相近。

故选A。

3．
细节理解题。

根据最后一段“Never follow others' recom mendations and opinions blindly, however famous or influential (有很大影响的) the person might be. …As a saying goes, one man's meat is another man's poison.”（不要盲目地听从别人的建议和意见，不管这个人有多有名，有多有影响力。

我们应该接受各种意见，但总是要自己思考和决定。

俗话说，一个人的佳肴可能是另一个人的毒药。

）可知，作者在最后一段建议我们要自己做决定，不要盲目听从别人的建议，因为萝卜青菜各有所爱，即不要受别人选择的影响。

故选C。

4．
推理判断题。

根据第一段“To develop one's taste in English, the most effective way is to read English books extensively. ”（要培养一个人的英语品味，最有效的方法是广泛阅读英语书籍。

）以及As a native Spanish, I would like to share some of my experience.”（作为一个土生土长的西班牙人，我想分享一些我的经验。

）本文作者主要就如何选择适合自己的英文读物来读，给出了自己的建议。

故选B。

【点睛】
推理判断题的推断对象主要包括隐含意思、目标读者、观点态度、文章出处、写作意图等。

以推断隐含意义的题目居多。

推断隐含意义，即要求根据文章的某个句子、段落或全文所提供的事实进行逻辑推理，推断出作者没有提到、没有明说或者可能发生的事实。

题
干中常含infer（推断），suggest（暗示），imply（暗示），indicate（暗示），conclude （推断，得出结论）等词语。

解此类题，首先找到相关信息，然后细读、理解相关信息的字面意义，最后结合语境和常识，在字面意义的基础上进行符合逻辑的推断，从而理解作者的言外之意。

根据第一段“To develop one's taste in English, the most effective way is to read English books extensively. …As a native Spanish, I would like to share some of my experience.” 要培养一个人的英语品味，最有效的方法是广泛阅读英语书籍。

然而，一个人在选择合适的书时可能会不知所措，尤其是对于初学者来说。

作为一个土生土长的西班牙人，我想分享一些我的经验。

本文作者主要就如何选择适合自己的英文读物来读，给出了自己的建议。

故选B。

Have you ever considered all the English expressions that include words about clothes? Let’s have a look.
People wear pants to cover the lower part of their bodies. We sometimes say that people who are nervous have ants in their pants. Sometimes, people may get caught with their pants down. They are found doing something they should not be doing. And, in every family, one person takes control. Sometimes a wife tells her husband what to do. Then we say she wears the pants in the family.
Pants usually have pockets to hold things. Money that is likely to be spent quickly can burn a hole in your pocket. Sometimes you need a belt to hold up your pants. If you have less money than usual, you may have to tighten your belt.
I always praise people who can save their money and not spend too much. I really take my hat off to them. Yet, when it comes to my own money, I spend it at the drop of a hat, which means I instantly spend it.
Boots are a heavy or strong kind of shoes. People who are too big for their boots think they are more important than they really are. I dislike such people.
My father is an important person. He runs a big company. He wears a suit and tie, and a shirt with sleeves that cover his arms. Some people who do not know him well think he is too serious and never shows his feelings openly. But I know that my father wears his heart on his sleeve. 1．What is this passage mainly about?
A．What pants mean in English. B．Some special English expressions. C．Some funny English expressions. D．Some expressions related to clothes. 2．Which of the following expressions can show someone is nervous?
A．Get caught with one’s pants down.B．Have ants in one’s pants.
C．Wear the pants in the family. D．Burn a hole in one’s pocket. 3．Someone who spends his money at the drop of a hat most probably________．A．doesn’t save money B．earns much money

【答案】
1．D
2．C
3．A
【详解】
这是一篇说明文。

文章介绍了几种和衣服有关的习语表达。

【分析】
1. 主旨大意题。

根据文章第一段“Have you ever considered all the English expressions that include words about clothes? Let’s have a look.(你有没有考虑过所有和衣服有关的英语表达？让我们看一看)”以及下文对主这样的介短语的介绍可知，本文主要是介绍了一些与衣服有关的英语习语。

故选D。

2. 细节理解题。

根据文章第二段的“We sometimes say tha t people who are nervous have ants in their pants.”可知，我们有时会说紧张的人有蚂蚁在裤子里，故Have ants in one’s pants.表示某人是紧张的。

故选B。

3. 推理判断题。

根据第四段中“Yet, when it comes to my own money, I spend it at the drop of a hat, which means I instantly spend it.(然而，当涉及到我自己的钱时，我会立即花光，也就是说我马上就把它花光了)”可知， Someone who spends his money at the drop of a hat表示把钱立刻花掉，即不节约，故选A。

A young sperm whale discovered dead off the coast of Spain died from eating a lot of rubbish. About 64 pounds of rubbish， including plastic bags， ropes and fishing nets， was found inside the sperm whale＇s dead body.
The 32-foot-long whale was discovered near the small holiday place of Cabo de Palos in the southeast Murcia area in February. Officials at the EI Valle Wildlife Reserve Center found that it had died because it was unable to remove the rubbish from its body.
The animal＇s sad death has prompted Murcia＇s government alongside the European Environmental Association and the European Fund Regional Development， to start some actions against ocean waste.
Consuelo Rosauro， the government＇s director for the natural environment， said，＂The plastics in seas and oceans are one of the biggest dangers to the protection of wildlife in the world. ＂＂Many animals get caught in the rubbish or eat a lot of plastics， which end up causing their death， she added. ＂The problem is common in the Murcia area， and we must solve it by taking clean-up actions and，above all， increasing awareness of local people. About 19 billion pounds of plastic waste ends up in the world＇s oceans each year. Researchers say that the amount of plastic waste will be twice as much as it is now by 2025 if quick action is not taken.
The sperm whales are the largest of the toothed whales and the largest predators（食肉动物）They will move seasonally for feeding and giving birth. They are fond of living together， and even 300 sperm whales live in a group. The females work together to protect and look after their
young. Females give birth every four to twenty years and care for the young ones for more than ten years. A grown sperm whale has few natural enemies But it does not mean they are totally safe. At least they face the problem of rubbish now.
1．Why did that sperm whale die？
A．Because it could not find food. B．Because it was already too old. C．Because it had eaten too much rubbish. D．Because it could not leave the rubbish around it.
2．What can we learn from Consuelo Rosauro＇s words？
A．The protection of wildlife is very hard.
B．The locals＇awareness of protecting wildlife should be raised.
C．Local people have thrown much rubbish in seas
D．There are many actions dealing with rubbish in seas.
3．The passage mainly shows that____.
A．Sperm whales can die easily. B．People really care about wildlife.
C．A lot of wildlife is in danger now. D．Pollution in seas and oceans harms wildlife.

In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends.

I look for certain qualities of character，especially understanding, honesty and reliability(可靠)．
Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person’s place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener. At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.

There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.

I traveled to London, England in the spring of 2016. Actually, I traveled with CAPA International Education on a study program. At that time, I did a full three-month program but I traveled on weekends and during breaks.
I used to live in a small town outside New York. The idea of big cities has always excited me and I wanted to take advantage of that once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It was a great opportunity for me to see how independent I could be in another country, because I hope to travel a lot more in the future.
I lived in a flat in Ealing Broadway with several other students from different American schools. The biggest surprise I found there was the culture shock I experienced. I had expected traveling to London to be an easy transition (转变) for me because I thought their culture was close to that of America. But you know the language and the people were greatly different from what I had expected. They had different accents. In fact, they were noisy and more free-thinking than most Americans I knew.
However, I tried to take part in their giant Chinese New Year celebration in Trafalgar Square. I went to several Jewish society holiday celebrations and actively participated in any cultural activities I knew at that time. It was great to be able to truly put myself in their culture. These are experiences I couldn't get anywhere else.
I would suggest people hoping to follow in my footsteps not let anything hold them back from exploring the foreign cultures presented to them. Yes, you are there for school, but your number one priority (优先) is yourself. So make sure you go home with no regrets. Do not miss anything! 1．What was the author's main purpose in going to London?
A．To go sightseeing.
B．To visit some relatives.
C．To join in a study program.
D．To experience the life in a big city.
2．What did the author think of the opportunity of traveling to London?
A．It would change his life.
B．It would test his independence.
C．It would make his dream come true.
D．It would help improve his communication ability.
3．What was beyond the author's expectation after arriving in London?
A．Culture differences. B．Unfriendly students.
C．His living conditions. D．Some strange accents.
4．In the last paragraph, the author mainly advises people studying abroad to ________. A．explore more interesting places for traveling
B．try to receive more international education
C．combine study with exploring foreign cultures
D．look for more ways to deal with the culture shock
【答案】
1．C
2．B
3．A
4．C

As years went by, I realized that one of the biggest problems of these adults was worry. A large majority of students were businessmen, executives, salesmen, engineers, accountants：a cross section of all the trades and professions—and most of them had problems! There were women in the classes—businesswomen and housewives. They, too, had problems! Clearly, what I needed was a textbook on how to conquer worry—so again I tried to find one.
I went to New York’s great public library at Fifth Avenue and Forty­second Street and discovered, to my astonishment, that this library had only twenty--two books listed under the title WORRY. I also noticed, to my amusement, that it had one hundred and eighty--nine books listed under WORMS. Almost nine times as many books about worms as about worry! Surprising, isn’t it? Since worry is one of the biggest problems facing mankind, you would think, wo uldn’t you, that every high school and college would give a course on “How to Stop Worrying”?
Yet, is there even one course on that subject in any college in the land? I have never heard of it. No wonder David Seabury said in his book How to Worry Successfully：“We grow up with as little preparation for the pressures of experience as a bookworm asked to do a ballet (芭蕾舞).”
The result? More than half of our hospital beds are occupied by people with nervous and emotional troubles.
I looked over those twenty--two books on worry, reposing(靠) on the shelves of the New York Public Library. In addition, I purchased all the books on worry I could find；yet I couldn’t discover even one that I could use as a textbook in my course for adults. So I decided to write one by myself.
