Harvey Sutton spent nearly seven months hiking with his parents, walking the thousands of kilometers that
make up the complete Appalachian Trail. Harvey, or “little man”, was just 4 years old when he started, and celebrated his 5th birthday on the trail.
The Appalachian Trail, which many people call simply the “AT”, is a 3,530-kilometer hiking trail that runs through the forests of the Appalachian Mountains and passes through 14 states in all. Hiking the Appalachian Tran is tough, and only one out of every four hikers completes all the sections of the trail. The people who hike it must carry everything they need with them, including tents, sleeping bags and other supplies, along with food and water.
Harvey’s parents, Josh and Cassie Sutton, have been hiking with Harvey since he was two years old. They made reasonable arrangements, and especially prepared him for hiking the AT by starting out with lots of shorter walks and hikes. It took Harvey and his family 209 days to complete the entire AT. Every day the family would wake up around 5:30 in the morning. They would have breakfast and pack up their tents and sleeping bags before setting off through the woods. In general, the family hiked about 16 kilometers a day before stopping to set up camp again.
During his days on the AT, Harvey liked to use his imagination. This helped him walk more quickly and have fun while he hiked. He played games with his mom and dad and other hikers, Kart Sakas hiked with the Suttons through seven states. Mr. Sakas said Harvey didn’t seem to get tired. When other hikers were worn out at the end of the day, Harvey was still eager for a game.
Completing the AT taught Harvey and his parents how to work as a team and how to take on challenges together. Harvey has now turned 5 and has started kindergarten. But at some point in the future, he says, “I want to hike the AT again!”
4. What can we learn about hiking on the AT?
A. It takes every hiker 7 months to finish it.
B. Hikers like to celebrate their birthdays on it.
C. Only a quarter of hikers finish the whole trail.
D. Hikers spend lots of money hiking on it.
5. What made the Suttons’ hiking successful?
A. Using their imagination.
B. Being full of energy.
C. Managing time well.
D. Having good preparation.
6. What kind of person is Harvey Sutton?
A. Energetic and team-spirited.
B. Imaginative and funny.
C. Naughty and tough.
D. Considerate and brave.
7. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?
A. The A T—A Challenging Trail
B. Why Do People Like Hiking?
C. Hiking—Suttons’ Hobby
D. The Little Man’s 209 Hiking Days
【4~7题答案】
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。

文章讲述了Harvey Sutton从4岁开始就跟着父母徒步，用了209天穿越艰难的阿巴拉契亚山道的故事。

【4题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第二段“Hiking the Appalachian Tran is tough, and only one out of every four hikers completes all the sections of the trail.(徒步穿越阿巴拉契亚山道非常艰难，每四个登山者中只有一个能完成所有路段)”可知，只有四分之一的徒步旅行者能走完阿巴拉契亚山道全程。

故选C项。

【5题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第三段“Harvey’s parents, Josh and Cassie Sutton, have been hiking with Harvey since he was two years old. They made reasonable arrangements, and especially prepared him for hiking the AT by starting out with lots of shorter walks and hikes.(哈维的父母乔什·萨顿和凯西·萨顿从哈维两岁起就一直和他一起徒步旅行。

他们做了合理的安排，特别为他的徒步旅行做了准备，从许多较短的步行和徒步开始)”可知，萨顿夫妇的徒步旅行成功的原因是有充分的准备。

故选D项。

推理判断题。

根据第四段“Mr. Sakas said Harvey didn’t seem to get tired. When other hikers were worn out at the end of the day, Harvey was still eager for a game.(萨卡斯先生说哈维似乎不觉得累。

当其他徒步旅行者筋疲力尽的时候，哈维仍然渴望一场比赛)”和第五段“Completing the AT taught Harvey and his parents how to work as a team and how to take on challenges together.(完成AT教会了哈维和他的父母如何作为一个团队工作，如何一起面对挑战)”可知，哈维·萨顿是一个精力充沛,富有团队精神的人。

故选A项。

【7题详解】
主旨大意题。

通读全文，文章讲述了Harvey Sutton从4岁开始就跟着父母徒步，用了209天穿越艰难的阿巴拉契亚山道的故事，所以“The Little Man’s 209 Hiking Days(小小男人的209天徒步旅行)”是最佳标题。

故选D项。

C
Around 126, 000 gallons of oil have spilled into the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Orange County. The oil spill covers about 34 square kilometers of ocean.
To find the leak (裂缝、泄漏), many divers explored underwater. They found a break in a 28-kilometer
pipeline (输油管道) that delivers oil off the California coast. Amplify Energy Corp. (AEC) is the oil company that owns the pipeline. It shut down the pipeline on Saturday, but experts say the company should have noticed a change in the pipeline’s pressure much sooner. The leaking pipeline is over 40 years old, even though such pipelines are normally only used for about 25 years.
Locals have said that even though the spill began on Friday night, little action was taken to contain it until Saturday afternoon. Some visitors to nearby beaches report that there is oil everywhere. Martyn Willsher, who leads Amplify, believes the leak has been stopped. “There is no active leak that we’re aware of,” he said.
Now beaches in the area have been closed, and fishing has been banned in a wide area along the coast. People are being asked to stay away from the beaches, since the oil can be poisonous.
Extra efforts are being made to keep the oil away from protected marshy (沼泽的) areas, along the coast, which are home to special wildlife. At least one of these areas, Talbert Marsh, has already been affected. Workers are trying to help animals that may have been hurt in the spill. It’s still not known exactly how many animals have been affected. But there are reports of dead fish and birds washing up on shore, and of dolphins swimming through the oily waters in the areas.
The US Coast Guard is leading efforts to place floating barriers called “booms” on the water to try to keep the spill from spreading.
8. What is the experts’ opinion on the oil spill?
A. It’s been a normal phenomenon.
B. It should have been avoided.
C. It has followed an earthquake.
D. It’s happened in a sailing ship.
9. What do the local people think of what AEC did about the oil spill?
A. Disappointing.
B. Wonderful.
C. Risky.
D. Sincere.
10. What does the author want to convey in the last three paragraphs?
A. No sea foods are allowed to sell in the market.
B. Visitors come over to help the damaged wildlife.
C. Measures have been taken to reduce the effect.
D. The polluted area is being enlarged at present.
11. What kind of article is the text?
A. A story.
B. An announcement.
C. An essay.
D. A news report.
【8~11题答案】
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。

大约126,000加仑的石油泄漏到太平洋延沿岸的奥兰县。

石油泄漏覆盖了大
约34平方公里的海洋。

【8题详解】
推理判断题。

根据文章第二段“It shut down the pipeline on Saturday, but experts say the company should have noticed a change in the pipeline’s pressure much sooner.(该公司于周六关闭了管道，但专家们表示该公司本应该更早注意到管道压力的变化)”可知，专家们认为如果公司及时注意到管道压力的变化，泄露事件就不会发生。

故选B项。

【9题详解】
细节理解题。

根据文章第三段“Locals have said that even though the spill began on Friday night, little action was taken to contain it until Saturday afternoon. Some visitors to nearby beaches report that there is oil everywhere.(当地居民表示，尽管泄漏始于周五晚上，但直到周六下午才采取措施加以控制。

一些到附近海滩的游客说那里到处是石油)”可知，当地居民认为AEC公司在这次石油泄漏事件上处理得不够及时，居民表示失望和不满。

故选A项。

【10题详解】
推理判断题。

根据文章第四段“Now beaches in the area have been closed, and fishing has been banned in a wide area along the coast. People are being asked to stay away from the beaches, since the oil can be poisonous.(现在，该地区的海滩已经关闭，在沿海岸的大片区域禁止捕鱼。

人们被要求远离海滩，因为石油有可能有毒)”及第五段“Extra efforts are being made to keep the oil away from protected marshy (沼泽的) areas, along the coast, which are home to special wildlife.(人们正在进行额外的努力，使石油远离沿海地区受保护的沼泽地地区，这些地区是特殊野生动物的家园)”以及最后一段“The US Coast Guard is leading efforts to place floating barriers called “booms” on the water to try to keep the spill from spreading.(美国海岸警卫队正在努力在水面上放置漂浮的屏障，成为“围油栏”，试图阻止泄漏的蔓延)”可知，作者在最后三段要想表达的是为了减小这次石油泄漏的影响人们已经采取了一定的措施。

故选C项。

【11题详解】
推理判断题。

根据文章第一段“Around 126, 000 gallons of oil have spilled into the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Orange County. The oil spill covers about 34 square kilometers of ocean.(大约126,000加仑的石油泄漏到太平洋延沿岸的奥兰县。

石油泄漏覆盖了大约34平方公里的海洋)”可知，文章主要是在围绕着太平洋沿岸奥兰县的石油泄漏事件展开，所以属于新闻报道文体。

故选D项。

To put displays in front of your eyes to experience a big private screen, TCL’s NXTWEAR G Glasses have some serious science fiction potential. But will they kick—start a new kind of wearable TVs, or be classified into a
forgettable gimmick (噱头)?
Unlike the smart glasses that were once fashionable a few years ago, which were abandoned because they required a willingness to give away privacy, the NXTWEAR G has a screen that you wear as glasses, which can display content from your attached smart phone, tablet or laptop, through a 140—inch (357 cm)TV.
I must admit that when I first heard about them, I didn’t believe in them. But the advantage is huge. With the glasses, you can see most of the world around you, particularly below the glasses. Having the image stay where it is in the glasses means you can get comfortable at whatever special angle you want and have the screen stay in the perfect spot. That would be fantastic for someone who has trouble keeping their head still (like with Parkinson’s or a similar disease), or someone recovering from surgery.
Of course, they’re not perfect. They’re much heavier than they perhaps should be. A 140—inch screen sounds much bigger, heavier and means having to rely on the controls of whatever device you’re using. It’s also not great if you need to wear regular glasses to see. That seems for first—generation glasses, they are very good, but still far from perfection.
Although there is still something imperfect, the longer I spend with the NXTWEAR G, the brighter a future I can see for wearable screens. There is huge potential in wearable screens for a lot of applications, when they’re made lighter, more comfortable, and easier to use.
12. Which can best replace the underlined word “kick-start” in paragraph 1?
A. Give up.
B. Pick.
C. Begin.
D. Take away.
13. How are NXTWEAR G Glasses different from other smart glasses?
A. They are of fashionable design.
B. They have a screen linked with your smart devices.
C. They need to collect more users’ privacy.
D. They are equipped with better cameras.
14. What is the disadvantage of the NXTWEAR G Glasses?
A. They weigh more than the users’ expectation.
B. They shut you off from the rest of the world
C. They keep your head still all the time.
D. They are like the regular glasses you are wearing.
15. What’s the author’s attitude towards the future of the NXTWEAR G Glasses?
A. Concerned.
B. Optimistic.
C. Negative.
D. Doubtful.
【12~15题答案】
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。

文章介绍了TCL推出的一款可佩戴NXTWEAR G眼镜屏幕，讲述了其优点和缺点，以及光明的未来。

【12题详解】
词义猜测题。

前文“To put displays in front of your eyes to experience a big private screen, TCL’s NXTWEAR G Glasses have some serious science fiction potential.(TCL NXTWEAR G眼镜可以将显示屏放在眼前，体验大的私人屏幕，这款眼镜具有一些严肃的科幻潜力。

)”讲述TCL推出了一款新的发明NXTWEAR G眼镜，因此推断划线句“But will they kick—start a new kind of wearable TVs, or be classified into a forgettable gimmick (噱头)?(但他们会kick-start一种新的可穿戴电视，还是被归类为一个容易被遗忘的噱头？)”中的划线词与begin“开始；启动”意思相近。

故选C。

【13题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第二段内容“Unlike the smart glasses that were once fashionable a few years ago, which were abandoned because they required a willingness to give away privacy, the NXTWEAR G has a screen that you wear as glasses, which can display content from your attached smart phone, tablet or laptop, through a 140—inch (357 cm)TV.(不像几年前的时尚的智能眼镜，因为他们需要愿意放弃隐私被放弃了，NXTWEAR G有一个作为眼镜佩戴的屏幕，可以显示来自你附加的智能手机，平板电脑或笔记本电脑的内容，通过一个140英寸（357厘米）电视。

)”可知，与其他智能眼镜不同，NXTWEAR G有一个与你的智能设备相连的屏幕。

故选B。

【14题详解】
细节理解题。

根据倒数第二段的“Of course, they’re not perfect. They’re much heavier than they perhaps should be. A 140—inch screen sounds much bigger, heavier and means having to rely on the controls of whatever device you’re using. (当然，它们并不完美。

它们比也许应该的要重得多。

一个140英寸的屏幕听起来更大、更重，意味着你必须依赖于你正在使用的任何设备的控制。

)”可知，NXTWEAR G眼镜比用户期待的要重得多。

故选A。

【15题详解】
推理判断题。

根据最后一段的“Although there is still something imperfect, the longer I spend with the NXTWEAR G, the brighter a future I can see for wearable screens. There is huge potential in wearable screens for a lot of applications, when they’re made lighter, more comfortable, and easier to use.(尽管仍有一些不完美的东西，但我使用NXTWEAR G的时间越长，我所能看到的可穿戴屏幕的未来就越光明。

可穿戴屏幕在许多应用领域具
有巨大的潜力，因为它们可以变得更轻、更舒适、更容易使用。

)”可知，作者认为NXTWEAR G的未来是光明的，具有巨大的潜力，因此推断作者持有积极乐观的态度。

故选B。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。

文章主要说明了病毒的一些传播特性以及预防病毒的方法。

【16题详解】
根据上文“It’s not easy to classify viruses. They are not dead, because they have genes and evolve.(对病毒进行分类并不容易。

它们没有死，因为它们有基因并进化)”以及后文“So viruses have one task: to find a host and use it to reproduce. They reproduce by controlling the host’s cells, eventually causing them to burst and die, which will cause illness. These following facts can help you get rid of them.(所以病毒只有一个任务：找到一个宿主并利用它进行繁殖。

它们通过控制寄主的细胞进行繁殖，最终导致寄主细胞破裂和死亡，从而导致疾病。

以下这些事实可以帮助你摆脱它们)”可知，本句承接上文继续说明病毒的特性，故E选项“然而，它们也不是活着的，因为它们不能自己生存”符合语境，故选E。

【17题详解】
根据后文“Some viruses can even be spread via people who don’t have symptoms yet. Some super-spreaders may infect hundreds of other people without even realizing it. Take preventive action to prevent spreading viruses even when you don’t feel sick.(一些病毒甚至可以通过没有症状的人传播。

一些超级传播者可能会在没有意识到的情况下感染数百人。

即使你不觉得不舒服，也要采取预防措施防止病毒传播)”可知，本段主要说明了病毒的传播问题，故B选项“你可以在没有症状的情况下被感染”符合语境，故选B。

【18题详解】
根据上文“If you’re very overweight, you need to be extra cautious. Overweight people suffer from the flu virus 42 percent longer than those who aren’t overweight. Because being overweight is linked to many health problems, it may affect your immune system.(如果你超重，你需要格外小心。

超重的人感染流感病毒的时间比正常的人长42%。

因为超重与许多健康问题有关，它可能会影响你的免疫系统)”以及后文“So you have to watch your weight.(所以你要注意你的体重)”可知，本段主要是关于超重与感染病毒的关系，C选项中Extra weight对应上文中overweight。

故C选项“超重也可能使流感疫苗的效果降低”符合语境，故选C。

【19题详解】
根据上文“Soap and water really are the best defense. Washing your hands with soap is practically a good way to prevent viruses.(肥皂和水真的是最好的防御。

用肥皂洗手实际上是预防病毒的一种好方法)”以及后文“Make sure to wash for a minimum of 20 seconds and dry your hands on a clean towel.(确保洗手至少20秒，然后用干净的毛巾擦干手)”可知，上文提到用肥皂洗手来预防病毒，本句承接上文继续说明洗手的作用，故A选项“它还可以使病毒失效”符合语境，故选A。

【20题详解】
根据上文“According to a research published in Molecules, green tea may be an immune booster. It may help you
fight both cold and influenza viruses. Researchers found that drinking green tea regularly could help you recover from a cold quickly.(根据发表在《分子》杂志上的一项研究，绿茶可能是免疫助推器。

它可以帮助你对抗感冒和流感病毒。

研究人员发现，经常喝绿茶可以帮助你迅速从感冒中恢复)”可知，上文提到了经常喝绿茶可以帮助你迅速从感冒中恢复，本句为本段最后一句，应承接上文说明绿茶的作用，故G选项“这甚至可以让你从一开始就不太可能感染病毒”符合语境，故选G。
