People in Britain were much slower in finding out what tea was like, mainly because tea was very expensive. It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity. Some of them were not sure how to use it. They thought it was a vegetable and tried cooking the leaves. Then they served them mixed with butter and salt. They soon discovered their mistake but many people used to spread the used tea leaves on bread and give them to their children assandwiches.Tea remained scarce and very expensive in England until the ships of the East India Company began to bring it direct from China early in the seventeenth century. During the next few years so much tea came into the country that the price fell and many people could afford to buy it.At the same time people on the Continent were becoming more and more fond of tea. Until then tea had been drunk without milk in it, but one day a famous French lady named Madame de Sevigne decided to see what tea tasted like when milk was added. She found it so pleasant that she would never again drink it without milk. Because she was such a great lady her friends thought they must copy everything she did, so they also drank their tea with milk in it. Slowly this habit spread until it reached England and today only very few British people drink tea without milk.At first, tea was usually drunk after dinner in the evening. No one ever thought of drinking tea in the afternoon until a duchess（公爵夫人）found that a cup of tea and a piece of cake at three or four o clock stopped her getting “a sinking feeling” as she called it. She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so, tea-time was born.21．Which of the following is true of the introduction of tea into Britain? ________A．British people were the first people in Europe who drank tea.B．It was not until the 17th century that British people had tea.C．British people got expensive tea from India.D．Tea reached Britain from Holland.22．What does this passage most probably talk about? ________A．It talks about how British people got the habit of drinking teaB．It talks about how tea became a popular drink in BritainC．It talks about the history of tea drinking in BritainD．It talks about how tea-time was born23．People in Europe began to drink tea with milk because ________A．tea with milk stopped people getting a sinking feelingB．people followed the way a French lady drank teaC．tea with milk was then a fashionable curiosityD．tea with milk tasted much more pleasant24．We may infer from the passage that the habit of drinking tea in Britain was mostly due to the influence of ________A．the upper social classB．the ancient ChineseC．a famous French ladyD．people in HollandBAn Israeli law banning too skinny models went into effect with the start of 2013.The law, approved last March in Israel, requires models to prove they have maintained a Body Mass Index（BMI）of at least 18.5 for three months before a fashion show. That means a woman who is 68 inches tall can weigh no less than 119 pounds.“This law is another step in the war against eating disorders,” said physician Adatto. “Underweight models,” he explained, “can no longer serve as role models for innocent young people who copy their false image of b eing skinny.”But some critics in this country say it is misguided, focusing on weight instead of health. They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry. “I think it’s an approach that isn’t going to work.” said eating disorder expert Susan Ice, who worked with an organization which creates a healthy working environment for models.But Adatto told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after meeting an ambitious model who looked like she needed to be hospitalized. He said. “I realized that only legislation（立法）can change the situation. There was no time to waste; so many girls were dieting to death.”However, the efforts to regulate models, weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in significant changes in part because of difficulties in determining reliable methods of measuring weight and health.Still, folks including Ice say there, no denying that images from Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young women to deal with. “Certainly I don’t believe the modeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders, but it makes it harder,” she says. “It’s a difficult recovery environment, worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal.”25．One benefit the new Israeli law may bring is ________.A．to change the working conditions of modelsB．to prevent models from suffering from eating disordersC．to provide guidance for women worshiping thinnessD．to lower the chance of skinny models’ death26．In the opinion of the critics, the law won’t su cceed because ________.A．it misleads young women to form a bad eating habit.B．the fashion industry is much too influential.C．it doesn’t create a healthy working environment for models.D．it doesn’t provide a proper approach that can work well.27．What caused Adatto to think that a law was needed to change the situation? ________A．Being interviewed by a reporter.B．Establishing his fashion model agent.C．Meeting an ambitious but too skinny model.D．Seeing a model die from eating disorders.28．According to the passage, the new Israeli law banning skinny models is ________.A．practicalB．reasonableC．acceptableD．argumentativeCSTAY INFORMED WITH CITIZENS’ BANK!Are you a busy person who likes to stay on top of your finances? Then why do you waste your time constantly checking your bank account? Citizens’ Bank now offers a new service for you.With our new Automated Alert Service, Citizens’ Bank account holders can have important account information sent directly to their cell phone or email address. The type of information you’ll receive is up to you:•Be informed when your account balance drops below a certain level.•Receive notification（通知）when a specific check clears.•Find out instantly whenever a withdrawal is made.With Automated Alerts, staying on top of your banking will be a lot easier. For more information, contact us at aas@citizensbank. net or drop by your nearest branch.From: Robert Renfield robertyaho@nemo. comTo: Citizens’ Bank aas@citizensbank. netSubject: An Inquiry of the Alert ServiceGood afternoon,I am writing to request more information on your new Automated Alert Service, as advertised on your Website. I have had both personal and commercial accounts with Citizens’ Bank for many years. Often, I find it necessary to move money between accounts. Because of this, it is vital that I keep a close eye on the cash flow of all of my accounts, to assure that their balances stay above the required minimums. Therefore, I have been searching for an economical means of keeping better track of my finances. I was considering purchasing software for this purpose, but I think that your new service might be a convenient alternative.My first question concerns the timeliness of the notifications. When you say “instantly,” does that relate only to banking hours? For example, if my wife were to use our debit card（借记卡）on a Sunday afternoon to make a transfer（转账）at an ATM, would I be informed via email instantly or on Monday morning? My second question is in regard to the information available in this service. Is it possible to be aware of any information in my monthly bank statement, such as interest on my savings account? Finally, I would like to know the cost of this service.Please send me this information as soon as possible. If necessary, you can contact me in the evenings at 225-782-0902.R. Renfield29．What is Citizens’ Bank advertising? ________A．A kind of checking account.B．A way to bank over the phone.C．A free hotline for new customers.D．A service for account holders.30．What is Mr. Renfield’s relation to Citizens’ Bank? ________A．He has had accounts with it for many years.B．He is a member of its board of directors.C．He recently opened a new account with it.D．He used its Automated Alert Service.31．Which of the following will be most important for Mr. Renfield? ________A．Receiving information directly on his cell phone.B．Knowing when his balances drop to a certain level.C．Being informed when a specific check clears.D．Having his monthly bank statement sent to him.DFor many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrel on unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn’t matter what the topic is—politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg—the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something—and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.32．Why does the author compare the parent teen war to a border conflict? ________A．Both can continue for generations.B．Both are about where to draw the line.C．Neither has any clear winner.D．Neither can be put to an end.33．What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean? ________A．The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.B．The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict.C．The teens accuse their parents of misleading them.D．The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.34．Parents and teens want to be right because they want to ________.A．give orders to the otherB．know more than the otherC．gain respect from the otherD．get the other to behave properly35．What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows? ________A．Causes for the parent-teen conflictsB．Examples of the parent-teen warC．Solutions for the parent-teen problemsD．Future of the parent-teen relationship第二节（共5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.How do you enter a room full of strangers? Do you walk right in full of confidence? Or do you try to slip in without being noticed? 36 In life, we admire those who do their tasks confidently. We prefer people who appear to know what they are doing. But where does that confidence begin?Developing self-confidence starts very e arly.

It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity. 来自荷兰的茶在商店买不到甚至有些人也买不起茶, 只是因为它是一个时尚好奇事物. 到最后一段At first, tea was usually drunk after dinner in the evening. 刚开始, 人们只在晚饭后喝茶, She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so, tea-time was born. 她邀请她的朋友吃这种饭, 因此, 下午茶就诞生了. 由此可知, 主要讲的是茶是如何在英国成为一种流行的饮品的. 故选B．【名师点睛】考点:考查健康类阅读关于细节理解题用细节定位法:细节理解题属直接解答性问题, 是阅读理解题中最简单的一种, 多数属中低难度的送分题. 但由于高考所占的比例很大, 应特别引起注意. 事实和细节题的命题特点是:把某词语、某个句子或某具体事实用不同于原文的另一方式或句型表达, 即同义改写. 解答这类题的窍门是:A)注意掌握英语的多种表达法;B)正确分析词语在句中的作用;C)熟练运用英语的句型转换;D)读懂题干所提出的问题, 并准确地找到文中涉及该问题的句子.考点：广告类文章阅读考点:考查信息匹配，考查社会现象类阅点评:在答题中, 应首先略读一下短文, 了解一下短文的大致意思, 然后把几个选项含义理解透, 尤其注意意思相近, 表达有交叉的选项之间的区别. 然后再细读短文, 把答案填入合适位置. 答题时可以把含义相近的几个选项轮流填入同一处位置, 反复阅读, 反复体会, 找出最佳选项, 对于实在没有把握的小题可以留待最后完成. 完成短文后, 再认真通读一遍全文, 看看上下语意是否通顺, 是否符合逻辑关系.【答案】21．C 22．A 23．D 24．B 25．C 26．A 27．A 28．B 29．A 30.

He also bought photographs from others who were returning from the field.His efforts culminated(达到顶点)in an1862display of photographsmade after the Battle of Antietam. The bloodshed(人员伤亡)shockedthe visitors to the exhibit,most of whom had never seena field of battle.Brady did not stop war with his work,but he did raise the awarenessof the costs of war among common citizens.After the Civil War,people lost interest in his record of the war.

And that early anxiety about dealing with numbers can put a child at a significant disadvantage,not only in school but in negotiating life and a career.Fortunately,a study of third-graders,published in the Journal of Neuroscience,suggestsan intervention(干预)that can help.One-on-onetutoring doesmore than teachkids.It can help reduce the fear of math anxiety.“The m ost exciting aspectof our findings is that cognitive(认知的)tutoring not onlysaysVinod Menon.improves performance,but is also anxiety-reducing,”Menon and his colleaguesknew from their earlier researchusing MRI scans(核磁扫描) of the brain that math anxiety activates much the same network of cells that some other common fears activate----fear of snakesor spiders or heights,for example.And they knew that a behavioral treatment known asexposuretherapy helps somepeople solve the anxiety of thoseother phobias.Could the samething behappeningwith math tutoring?To find out,the scientists invited46third-graders who answeredquestions about math worries and were also testedon simple addition problems while having their brains scanned via functional MRI.Basedon their answers,scansand scoresin eachof the tests,the children were divided into two groups:one consideredto have higher levels of math anxiety and one with lower levels.Afterward,both groups received eight weeks of one-on-one tutoring in basicarithmetic,a few sessionsa week.Both groups did better in math at the end of the tutoring,Menon says.But most importantly,he says,the kids who had beenanxious about math were20percentless anxious at the end of the eight weeks----afinding their brain scansconfirmed.The tutoring was highly personalized----if a child got stuck on a particular concept,thetutor would work with the student to“get b eyond the bottleneck in a non-negative, encouragingway”．Menon hopesto next study whether computerized tutoring can produce similar benefits and whether the reduction in math anxiety continues to exist asthe children advanceto more complex problem-solving skills.28.According to the text,early math anxiety may affect children’ｓ______.A.intelligence qualityB.ability to harmonize life and workC.life skillsD.careerchoicesin Paragraph3mean?29.What doesthe underlined word“phobias”A.Scans.B.Tutors.C.Fears.D.Symptoms.30.Why did scientiststestthose46third-graders?A.To check the function of MRI scans.B.To help them get higher gradesin math.C.To find out what addition problemsthey have.D.To prove whether one-on-onetutoring canreducemath anxiety.31.What doesthe author want to tell usin the last paragraph?puterscan help reducemath anxiety.B.Menon will makea further study aboutthe reduction in math anxiety.C.One-on-onetutoring is useful for solving difficult problems.D.Scientistshave applied one-on-onetutoring to social research.DFor the pastfew months,artificial intelligence(AI)hasbeena much talked about topic in the worlds of both pop culture and st November saw the release of Oscar-nominated(奥斯卡奖提名的)and winning movie,“The I mitation Game”，a bout the father of the modern computer,Alan st month,another Hollywood film abouthit theaters.clever robots,“Chappie”，Is artificial intelligence a good fortune or a bad luck for humans?In their book The Second Machine Age:Work,Progress,and Prosperity in a Time of Brilliant Technologies, authors Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee,both of whom come from MIT,US,could barely hide their excitement toward the rise of machines.According to the authors,we’re entering an age of accelerateddevelopment of artificial and robotic technology.“Digitalmachines have escapedtheir narrow confines limits and started to show broad abilities in pattern recognition,complex communication,and otherrecently seengreat progressin areasthat used to be only human,”w rite the authors.“We’venatural languageprocessing,machinelearning,computer vision,and many other areas.”Already AI can help blind people seeand deaf people hear.And wheelchairs have been invented that can be controlled by thoughts.We’ll w itness more innovations and wonders madepossible by AI,according to the authors.However,not all are equally enthusiastic about AI.A February report from the GlobalChallenges Foundation listed AI,along with extreme climate change,nuclear war andMany scientists share the ecological catastrophe,as“risks t hat threaten human civilization”．sameconcern.StephenHawking told the BBC last December that:“It w ould take off on its own,and re-design itself at an ever increasing rate,while humans,who are limited by slow biological evolution,couldn’ｔcompete,and would be replaced.”worry agreedwith that of Teslaand SpaceXbossElon Musk,who said in last Hawking’ｓOctober at an MIT conference that“we s hould be very careful about artificial intelligence.

My terrible attempts at farming have given me hilarious stories to tell!Talking to volunteers from different countries and backgrounds has also helped me learn more about the world.I feel thankful to have had so much fun with many nice people thanks to volunteering. 24．Why did the author want to volunteer?A．He wanted to go abroad.B．He felt ashamed of himself.C．He wanted to be a farmer.D．He wanted to taste new life and make friends. 25．The underlined word“hilarious”in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to“”.A.funnyB.negativeC.awfulD.sad26．What volunteering work did the author do?A.Helping in a charity shop.B.Conducting a choir in a sports event.C.Helping in an Italian farm.D.Taking care of sheep.27．How does the author feel according to the last paragraph?A.Curious.B.Anxious.C.Grateful.D.Cautious.CTraditional Chinese medici ne(TCM)is gaining global popularity.According to a government white paper,TCM has been introduced in183countries and regions around the world.Westerners’understanding of TCM,however,may be limited to acupuncture(针灸), cupping(拔罐)and massage(按摩).For instance,the purple,injury-like marks left on U.S. swimmer Michael Phelps’back from cupping for the purpose of relaxing his muscles and reducing pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in2016.As a matter of fact,Chinese herbs play a more important role in getting rid of diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment. It is therefore disappointing to know that while103World Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture,not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine.TCM falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to the slow development of Chinese herbs.Herbs are made into pills,powder and soup,and the kind of herbs used,their quality and quantity,and the processing of the ingredients jointly determine the effectiveness of the pared with Western medicine,which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods,TCM lacks standardization,with the chemical composition and functions of its medicines being unclear and their effects being unstable.Fortunately, standardization has improved in recent decades,with an increasing number of factories producing patented TCM drugs.Another factor that has prevented the development of TCM prescription(处方)drugs is the lack of creativity.While Western medicine-making companies come up with new products every year,TCM drug producers tend to make medicines according to prescriptions handed down from the past.Chinese chemist Tu Youyou’s winning the2015Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her research into malaria(疟疾)treatment may drive creativity to some extent in China’s TCM industry.However,the current state of affairs cannot be changed within a short time.28．Why does the author mention the example of Michael Phelps?A.Because Phelps has an international fame for his interest in TCM.B.Because cupping is a kind of important TCM treatment.C.Because currently westerners have a preference for TCMD.Because westerners have rather limited knowledge about TCM.29．Why don’t some member countries of WHO recognize Chinese herbal medicine?A.Because Chinese herbs can’t cure diseases as well as western medicineB.Because they only approve of the practice of acupunctureC.Because Chinese medicine tastes so bad.D.Because medicine made out of Chinese herbs develops pretty slowly 30．Compared with Western medicine,what is the weak point of TCM in Paragraph4?A.The methods of processing herbs.B.The effectiveness of prescription.ck of proper standardization.D.Its unstable functions.31．The lack of creativity in TCM refers to the fact that_______.A.medicine-making companies lack creativityB.prescriptions are passed down from generation to generationC.Western companies are more experiencedD.medicine-making companies lack driving force and experienced specialistsDEl Nifio(厄尔尼诺),a Spanish term for“the Christ child”,was named by South American fisherman who noticed that the global weather pattern,which happens every two to seven years,reduced the amount of fishes caught around Christmas.El Nifio sees warm water, collected over several years in the western Pacific,flow back eastwards when winds that normally blow westwards weaken,or sometimes the other way round.The weather effects both good and bad,are felt in many places.Rich countries gain more from powerful Nifio,on balance,than they lose.A study found that a strong Nifio in1997 helped American’s economy grow by15billion,partly because of better agricultural harvest, farmers in the Midwest gained from extra rain.The total rise in agricultural incomes in rich countries is greater than the fall in poor ones.But in Indonesia extremely dry forests are in flames.A multi-year drought(干旱)in south-east Brazil is becoming worse.Though heavy rains brought about by El Nino may relieve the drought in California,they are likely to cause surface flooding and other disasters.The most recent powerful Nino,in1997-98,killed around21,000people and caused damage worth$36billion around the globe.But such Ninos come with months of warning, and so much is known about how they happen that governments can prepare.According to the Overseas Development Institute(ODI),however,just12%of disaster-relief funding in the past two decades has gone on reducing risks in advance,rather than recovery and rebuilding afterwards.This is despite evidence that a dollar spent on risk-reduction saves at least two on reconstruction.Simple improvements to infrastructure(基础设施)can reduce the spread of disease. Better sewers(下水道)make it less likely that heavy rain is followed by an outbreak of the disease of bad stomach.Stronger bridges mean villages are less likely to be left without food and medicine after floods.According to a paper in2011by Mr.Hsiang and co-authors,civil conflict is related to El Nino’s harmful effects—and the poorer the country,the stronger the link.Though the relationship may not be causal,helping divided communities to prepare for disasters would at least reduce the risk that those disasters are followed by killing andwounding people.Since the poorest are least likely to make up for their losses from disasters linked to El Nino,reducing their losses needs to be the priority(优先权).32．What can we learn about El Nino in Paragraph1?A.It is named after a South American fisherman.B.It takes place annually all over the world.C.It forces fishermen to stop catching fish around Christmas.D.It sees the changes of water flow direction in the ocean.33．What may El Nino bring about to the countries affected?[来源:学.科.网Z.X.X.K]A.Agricultural harvests in rich countries fall.B.Droughts become more harmful than floods.C.Rich countries’gains are greater than their losses.D.Poor countries suffer less from droughts economically.34．The data provided by ODI in Paragraph4suggest that_________.A.more investment should go to risk reduction.ernments of poor countries need more aid.C.victims of El Nino deserve more compensation(赔偿).D.recovery and reconstruction should come first.35．What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A.To introduce El Nino and its origin.B.To explain the consequences of El Nino.C.To show ways of fighting against El Nino.D.To urge people to prepare for El Nino.第二部分：七选五（共5小题；每小题2份，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。
