Whenever I ask to go to the movies,my mom's first response is always "No!" When I want to go dancing,she adds a firm "No!No!No!" for emphasis.She claims she is only trying to protect me from what she calls "bad elements".
On a sunny day,Mom rejected my request to go to West Indian Day Parade and insisted I accompany her as she worked cleaning a large house.I followed her to a grand dining room,watching her apply
lemon-scented polish to the furniture.I imagined my friends dressing up in fancy costumes,enjoying the celebratory time at the parade.I glared at my mother,hoping she could feel the anger I was directing her way.
But as I watched,my emotions began to change.I noticed how tenderly she rubbed her dusting cloth along a large piano in the corner. "Is this like your piano in Guyana,Mom?" I asked. "Yes.This baby grand piano is exactly like the one my Dad bought me when I was your age." Her sigh was full of longing.
I knew that my mother had been a talented pianist.I vaguely recalled dancing under the piano when she practiced for hours every day.Now she could barely play for our church choir because her fingers were from so many days spent cleaning other people's homes.
"Stop!" Mrs.Smithers,the homeowner,yelled,"That's a very valuable instrument!"
"I am well aware of that." she said slowly,"I play for my church."
"But that's not a church-music piano.We play classical music on that piano."
I watched as my mother's eyes narrowed and her face tightened.I felt the same tightening in my chest. "You don't know anything about us …or pianos!" I screamed.Immediately I worried I had done something wrong,but I also felt the tightening in my chest loosened.
I waited for my mother to blame me,but instead she glanced my way,smiling proudly. "That's all I have time for today.My daughter and I are going to the e on,love."
"But Veronica,you will return next week,right?"
"No!" said my mother,"No!No!No!"
4. The underlined word "gnarled" in paragraph 4 probably means ______ .

C. painful but sensitive
D. bent but flexible

B. She quit her hobby to support the family.

D. She wished her daughter to become a well-respected pianist.
6. How did the writer's attitude toward her mother change on the day?______
A. From critical to ashamed.
B. From fearful to respectful.
C. From pitiful to understanding.
D. From angry to sympathetic.
7. What does the story mainly want to express?______
A. Don't look down upon those inferior to you.
B. Reaching out for those in trouble can be rewarding.
C. Understanding others' experiences helps identify with them.
D. Don't abandon your idea even if one shows strong disagreement.
C
Workers,and possibly all people,can be divided into two groups.Those who like to be involved in everything and can be labeled "FOMOs" because they suffer from a "fear of missing out".Then there are those who would simply want to be left to get on with their own particular work,without distraction—the "JOMOs" (joy of missing out).
If the boss announces a new project,do you immediately volunteer,thinking this will be a great chance to prove your skills?If so,you are a FOMO.Or do you foresee the trouble involved,the likely failure of the project,and the weekend emails from all the FOMOs wanting to spend less time with their families?Then you are a certified JOMO.Another test is technology.FOMOs are early users,picking up the latest devices and sending documents to colleagues through the latest file-sharing programme.JOMOs tend to believe that any technology upgrade will be troublesome in the beginning and wonder why on earth their colleagues can't send the document everyone has been familiar with.
Networking events are the kind of thing that gets FOMOs excited as a chance to exchange ideas and make contacts.When JOMOs hear the word "networking",they reach for their noise-cancelling earphones.For them,being made to attend an industry cocktail party is rather like being forced to attend the wedding of someone they hardly know---a social suffering.Similarly,when it comes to business travel,FOMOs can't wait to experience the delight of overseas conferences and visiting new places.It will all look good on their CV.JOMOs know that such travel involves lots of discomforts like crowded airline seats.The final destination turns out to be nothing more than a common conference centre or hotel that they forget five minutes after they have left.While they recognize that they have to attend some meetings and go on trips to get their work done,JOMOs regard such things as a self-punishment instead of a privilege.Something useful may come out of it,but best not to get their hopes up.
It might seem obvious that employers should look to hire FOMOs,not their opposites.After all,in a company full of JOMOs,sales might suffer and there would be little innovation.But while FOMOs are racing from meeting to networking events,employers need a few JOMOs to be doing actual work.The other reason why depending on FOMOs is dangerous is that they are naturally restless.JOMOs will be loyal,for fear of ending up with a worse employer.But FOMOs may think that working for one company means they are missing out on better conditions at another.That is the point of most networking,after all.
8. Which of the following best describe FOMOs?______
A. Excited about the networking events.
B. Finding it annoyed to use latest devices.
C. Hesitating to get involved in a new project.
D. Showing no interest in building up social relationship.
9. When it comes to business travel,what do JOMOs tend to do?______
A. Enjoy the conferences and the overseas trip
B. Believe it will enrich their working experience
C. Finish their work without too much expectations
D. Complain about something uncomfortable during the trip.
10. According to the author,why is it dangerous to depend on FOMOs?______
A. They don't do any actual work at all.
B. They usually end up with a worse employer.
C. They don't improve sales and have little innovation.
D. They may leave for better job chances in other company.
11. What is author's attitude towards JOMOs?______
A. Indifferent
B. Positive
C. Doubtful
D. Critical
D
Sleeper trains occupy a romantic corner of any traveler's soul.One of Hercule Poirot's most fascinating adventures takes place on the Simplon Orient Express,which used to run from Paris to Istanbul.A famous scene in Alfred Hitchcock's "North by Northwest" features a night train entering a tunnel.James Bond,meanwhile,detects a spy on a sleeper train after noticing him behave suspiciously in the dining car.
In some parts of the world,the nostalgia(怀旧)lives on.The Caledonian Sleeper,complete with smartly dressed waiters,neeps and tatties (白萝卜泥和土豆泥)and a selection of whiskies,is the best way to travel between London and Scotland. Flights across Europe have become so cheap that fewer and fewer travelers bother with sleeper trains.Sensing that the end is approaching.Andrew Martin,a British writer,has written a book about the sleeper.
"Night Trains" is a brief history of the mode,combined with accounts of journeys Mr.Martin has taken on sleeper routes across Europe.The reader joins him on a train Munich,where he eats a tuna sandwich on board.Travelling from Paris to Venice,he thinks he has been robbed of ﹩105.The service to Nice is cancelled,yet such is his love for sleeping aboard that he spends the night on the train as it sits on the platform.
These stories make clear that the golden age of the sleeper train is long past.How different things were in the 19th century,when a passenger on the Orient Express could dine on delicacies and good wines.The only modern-day sleeper train which comes up to the Mr.Martin's exacting standards is the Nordland,
which travels towards northern Norway.
Those who have no experience of the sleeper trains often ask sleeper enthusiasts:"Do you sleep?" After a read of Mr.Martin's book,the answer would seem to be a definite "no":the noise of the train wake him up time and again.Still,it is hard not to be won over by his enthusiasm.Catch the sleeper train,before it's too late.
12. What can we learn from the underlined sentence in paragraph two?______
A. Sleeper trains are the last means of transportation for travelers.
B. Travelers tend to fall asleep toward the end of their trip.
C. Travelers are too exhausted to walk any longer.
D. Sleeper trains are becoming out of fashion.
13. What might readers get after reading the book Night Trains?______
A. They may enjoy the scenery on their journey from London to Scotland.
B. They can have the opportunity to travel on the best train in Europe.
C. They may have a basic understanding of the history of sleeper trains.
D. They may get all the answers to their questions about the sleeper trains.
14. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?______
A. The noise of the train makes it impossible for travelers to sleep well.
B. Readers may be discouraged from riding on sleeper trains.
C. The writer of the passages suggests not spending nights aboard.
D. For enthusiasts,the love for sleepers outweighs the inconvenience caused.
15. What is the author's purpose of writing the passage?______
A. To introduce readers to a new book about sleeper trains.
B. To compare the advantages of sleeper trains in different periods.
C. To inform the readers of the rise and fall of sleeper trains.
D. To recall readers' memory of an old-fashioned means of transportation.

Have you ever complained that there just aren't enough hours in a day?Do you usually find yourself falling short on time in completing assigned tasks?(1) No matter how hard I tried,tasks just kept piling up towards the end every day and it became extremely difficult to stay productive.In spite of trying all kinds of free and paid to-do apps,nothing helped.
That didn't change until I discovered the time management technique called Time Blocking.Since then,I have been able to transform my daily schedule for the better with the help of Time Blocking. (2)
It is a simple time management technique where you schedule your day such that it is divided into time blocks that are dedicated to specific tasks or groups of tasks. (3) Imagine that you have a dozen or so tasks
that you want to finish working on tomorrow.You open your to-do app of choice and neatly list down everything that you plan to do,and then plot some important meetings and reminders in your calendar app.
(4) The more specific you are about the task,the more focused and productive you will be and thus,more productive.
(5) It not only makes your to-do list more manageable,but also it gives you more control over your day and helps you prioritize your tasks.It also improves your focus and helps get rid of procrastination(拖延症),as it allows you to focus on one project at a time.
A.So what is it exactly?
B.Is everyone interested in it?
C.I used to be in the same boat.
D.The benefits of Time Blocking are considerable.
E.Let's further explain the concept in another way.
F.You'll encounter countless questions like these in your life.

38. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

As Christmas decorations appeared in town, our parents called my two younger brothers and me together. At first, I thought someone had died, because I had never seen my parents look so sad. My brothers and I stood waiting for the awful news.
Mom hugged me as she murmured, "Christmas is going to be different this year. We won't be having a tree or presents. We can barely afford food." Dad, resting on the couch, beckoned(招手示意) the boys into his arms. "Things will change when I get back to work."
My family was poorer than dirt. Dad, the only bread-earner in our family, worked in a coal mine. However, soon after returning to work at the end of a long strike, Dad was hurt in a rock fall that broke bones in his foot. Lying on the couch with the swollen foot high on pillows, he didn't talk or smile much. There was little to smile about. No work, no income.
At nine years old, I mothered my younger brothers: Rodney, aged six, and Stevie, three. We shared
a small bedroom. That night, after our parents' announcement, we talked.
Rodney began. "Em, did you see how sad Mommy and Daddy looked? I thought Mommy was gonna cry."
"Me, too. Daddy's foot's...this big" whispered Stevie, holding out his arms.
"Yeah... We're in hard times," I said. "It makes Mommy and Daddy sad."
"But we don't have to be sad," I added, hoping to brighten the mood.
"Since there are still several weeks to go, maybe we can do something to cheer them up," I said with overdone enthusiasm. The boys proposed, "We can take the money from our piggy bank..earn some more...and surprise them with gifts!"
"I can run errands(跑腿) for Aunt Em and neighbors to earn money," I offered.
"Yeah," Rodney added, "I and Stevie can return bottles and save the deposit money...instead of buying candy!" He pushed Stevie gently with his elbow.
"Yeah!" Stevie clutched his hands together.
We had a plan!
Until they nodded off, I coached my little brothers (especially Stevie) in ways to guard our secret. "Don't talk about it during the day."
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

We awoke in the morning, transforming from sad children to the secret agents on an important mission!

故选C。

本文是一篇记叙文。

讲述了作者从对母亲的不理解,到同情母亲赡养家庭而放弃自己的爱好的态度的转变。

一、速读全文,了解大意知主题。

阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。

阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力,考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质。

二、看题干,带着问题读文章。

首先要掌握问题的类型,客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案;而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等,这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。

其次,了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息,然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读,对有关信息进行快速定位。

此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率。

三、逻辑推理,做好深层理解题。

在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义。

要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖
掘和逻辑推理,不能就事论事,以偏概全。

推理题在提问中常用的词有:infer,imply,suggest,indicate等。

四、猜词悟义,扫除阅读拦路虎。

猜词是应用英语的重要能力。

它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文,而且要有较大的泛读量,掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。

我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜",通过构词,语法,定义,同位,对比,因果,常识,上下文等线索确定词义。

8~11.【答案】A、C、D、C
【解析】(1)细节理解题。

根据第一段中Those who like to be involved in everything and can be labeled "FOMOs" because they suffer from a "fear of missing out".(那些喜欢参与所有事情的人可以被贴上"FOMOs"的标签,因为他们患有一种"害怕错过的恐惧"。

)和第三段Networking events are the kind of thing that gets FOMOs excited as a chance to exchange ideas and make contacts.(社交活动是一种让FOMOs感到兴奋的事情,因为这是一个交流思想和建立联系的机会。

)可知,FOMOs喜欢参与各种活动,对社交活动感到兴奋。

故选A。

(2)细节理解题。

根据第三段中Similarly,when it comes to business travel...JOMOs know that such travel involves lots of discomforts like crowded airline seats.The final destination turns out to be nothing more than a common conference centre or hotel that they forget five minutes after they have left.While they recognize that they have to attend some meetings and go on trips to get their work done,JOMOs regard such things as a self-punishment instead of a privilege.Something useful may come out of it,but best not to get their hopes up.(同样,当谈到商务旅行时......JOMOs知道这种旅行会带来很多不适,比如拥挤的座位。

最终的目的地只不过是一个普通的会议中心或酒店,他们离开五分钟后就忘记了。

虽然他们认识到他们必须参加一些会议和旅行来完成他们的工作,但JOMOs认为这是一种自我惩罚,而不是一种特权。

可能会有一些有用的东西,但最好不要让他们抱太大希望。

)可知,JOMOs认为这是一种自我惩罚,由此判断,他们不会享受会议和海外旅行,排除A项;他们认为可能会有一些有用的东西,但最好不要让他们抱太大希望,因此不会相信这会丰富他们的工作经验,排除B项;JOMOs知道这种旅行会带来很多不适,但未涉及是否有抱怨情绪,排除D项;他们认识到他们必须参加一些会议和旅行来完成他们的工作,所以他们会在没有太多期望的情况下完成工作,C项符合文意,故选C。

(3)细节理解题。

根据最后一段中The other reason why depending on FOMOs is dangerous is that they are naturally restless...But FOMOs may think that working for one company means they are missing out on better conditions at another.That is the point of most networking,after all.(依赖FOMOs是危险的另一个原因是他们天生躁动不安......但FOMOs可能认为,为一家公司工作意味着他们错过了另一家公司更好的条件。

毕竟,这是大多数社交活动的目的。

)可知,作者认为依赖FOMO是危险的原因是他们可能会离开,去其他公司寻找更好的工作机会。

故选D。

(4)观点态度题。

根据最后一段中It might seem obvious that employers should look to hire FOMOs,not their opposites.After all,in a company full of JOMOs,sales might suffer and there would be little innovation.But while FOMOs are racing from meeting to networking events,employers need a few JOMOs to be doing actual work.The other reason why depending on FOMOs is dangerous is that they are naturally restless.JOMOs will be loyal,for fear of ending up with a worse employer.(很明显,雇主应该雇佣FOMOs,而不是他们的对立面。

毕竟,在一个全是JOMOs的公司里,销售可能会受到影响,也不会有什么创新。

但是,当FOMOs们忙于参加各种会议和社交活动时,雇主们需要一些JOMOs来做实际工作。

依赖FOMOs是危险的另一个原因是他们天生躁动不安。

JOMOs会很忠诚,因为他害怕最后会遇到一个更糟糕的雇主。
