You may “spring to life” after hearing that a distant friend will be visiting you．Or maybe your favorite soccer team finally “sprang to life” in the second half, played well and won the match．Now, besides being a season and a verb the noun “spring” refers to a metal coil （线圈）that is wound tightly． When the coil unwinds, it often jumps． So, we often say a person “has a spring in his step” if he is lively and active． He might even appear to jump, or bounce a little when he walks．There is another way we use “spring” as a description． In the case of a “spring chicken”,“spring” means young． However, “spring chicken” is also an informal, humorous way to refer to someone who isn’t young at all． So, we use this expression in the negative form, as in “no spring chicken”． For example, let’s say y ou know an 85﹣year﹣old man who decides to run a marathon, even though he has never exercised before． You could say, “That’s amazing! After all,he’s no spring chicken．”But be careful when using this expression． It could be a little disrespectful． L et’s say your boss shows you a picture of his wife, and you say, “Wow,she’s no spring chicken．”That response would be disrespectful and a bad career move．（1）What does “spring” mean in the expression “spring to life”？________A.The season after winter．B.Being young and healthy．C.A tightly wound metal coil．D.To occur or appear quickly．（2）What is the passage mainly about？________A.The origin of the word “spring”．B.The meaning of the season “spring”．C.Some expressions with the word “spring”．D.Some characteristics of the season “spring”．（3）How does someone feel when he “has a spring in his step”？________A.Angry．B.Surprised．C.Happy．D.Frightened．（4）What can be inferred from the last paragraph？________A.Being young is a great advantage in career development．B.Women may feel offended when described as “no spring chicken”．ing “spring﹣related” expressions in conversations seems impolite．D.Expressions with the word “spring” are always disrespectful to others．【答案】DCCB【考点】完形综合阅读理解综合【解析】本文属于说明文阅读，作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了“春天”这个词的一些表达方式．【解答】（1）D．细节理解题．根据文章 It is also a verb that means something going on or coming out quickly．When you put “spring” and “life” together，you will get “spring to life”可知春天“在”生命之泉"这句话中的意思是迅速出现或出现；故选D．（2）C．细节理解题．根据文章But the word “spring” is not just a season． It is also a verb that means something going on or coming out quickly可知这篇文章主要讲的是“春天”这个词的一些表达方式；故选C．（3）C．细节理解题．根据文章 So，we often say a person “has a spring in his step” if he is lively and active． He might even appear to jump， or bounce a little when he walks可知当某人“有一个春天在脚下”时，他是快乐的；故选C．（4）B．细节理解题．根据文章But be careful when using this expression． It could be a little disrespectful．Let’s say your boss shows you a picture of his wife， and you say，“Wow，she’s no spring chicken可知当被描述为”没有小鸡"时，女性可能会觉得受到冒犯；故选B．3.

More than 90 years has passed since Hollywood's official film organization first proposed plans to build its own museum． Those plans are finally becoming a reality, with the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures set to open in 2019．The project is underway at the site of a historic Los Angeles department store built in 1939． Museum officials say visitors will be able to "experience the magic of cinema" by learning about all parts of the film﹣making process．Film historian Kerry Brougher has been named directors of the museum． Brougher says the museum will include 12 million photographs and 80, 000 screenplays as well as props （道具）, costumes and other objects from famous films． The Academy Museum will also feature Oscar statuettes （小雕像） donated by actors who won the awards．Brougher says the museum is designed to make visitors feel like they are in amovie, too, with many interactive experiences． "You won't necessarily know what's coming next, " he adds． "You'll be in environments sometimes that make you feel likeyou've gone back to the past and that you're in the area that you're actually exploring．" He adds that visitors may even get the chance to walk down a red carpet and accept their own Academy Award．Currently, Hollywood only has a few possibilities for visitors． They can go along the Walk of Fame and visit movie studios or see the Dolby Theater, where the Oscars are presented． But beyond these, movie fans have limited possibilities．Eric Garcetti, the mayor of Los Angeles says the Academy Museum will provide visitors the chance to experience many different parts of the film industry all in one place． Garcetti notes the museum will also serve the hundreds of thousands of local people working in film ﹣related businesses． He says they, too, will finally be able to visit a place that celebrates their own Hollywood movie industry．（1） When was the idea of building a museum in Hollywood first put forward？________A In the 1920s．B In 1939．C In the 1990s．D In 2019．（2） What can we learn from Brougher's words？________A Photos of visitors will be put on display．B Settings in the museum will feel quite real．C Most visitors will be presented an award．D Actors will donate much money to the museum．（3） What is Eric Garcetti's attitude towards the Academy Museum？________A Supportive．B Critical．C Disapproving．D Cautious．（4） What is the best title for the passage？________A The Film﹣making Process in Hollywood．B The Film﹣making Process of Hollywood．C Hollywood Making Plans of Film Museums．D Hollywood Getting Its Own Film Museum．4. For your next out﹣of﹣this﹣world vacation, you now have the option of literally going out of this world﹣but it'll cost you ＄ 40 million． Then again, can you really put a price tag on having the time of your life? According to a new report from Popular Mechanics, Russia is looking to build a luxury hotel in outer space． There you will wake up to a breathtaking blue planet﹣the earth! The hotel is expected to be stationed on the International Space Station （ISS）．While space tourism itself isn't exactly a novel idea, the notion of building a hotel out there hasn't been raised before． Really, other companies are still focused on the transportation part of ________ ﹣ after all, a trip to space is enough for most folks．According to Popular Mechanics, the hotel will include a luxury orbital suite with bigwindows, personal hygiene （卫生） facilities, exercise equipment, andyes, WiFi． Because if you can't share your experience on social media, did it really even happen?Of course, the reasons behind the hotel aren't just for fun and games． Apparently, space tourism might be able to help the Russians pay for another module to add to the international Space Station． Russian space contractor RKK Energia is currently building the first such module, which will give scientists a laboratory and power supply station from which to conduct tests．If any of this is going to happen, however, Russia is going to have to hurry． With the ISS expected to be out of use in 2028, there's little time to build the hotel and find wealthy tourists to actually buy a trip into outer space．So if you've recently come into a fortune and are interested in investing in what could bethe time of your life, ISS is calling your name．（1） What do we know about the hotel from the first paragraph？________A It is quite affordable．B It will be built in Russia．C It will offer an amazing view．D It costs ＄ 40 million to build．（2） What does the underlined phrase "the puzzle" in Paragraph 2 refer to？________A An orbital suite．B Space tourism．C Space exploration．D A creative idea．（3） What can be inferred from Paragraph 3？________A Hotel guests won't be able to see into space．B Visitors are required to take exercise each day．C Space travel is not possible without the Internet．D Tourists tend to share traveling experiences online．（4） The hotel will be built to provide Russian scientists with________A fun and games．B financial support．C space contractors．D more time in space．第二节：（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，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑．5.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。

AUrban Transportation in CanadaPublic transportation & Transit passesAll cities and most major towns in Canada have a public transportation system with one or more modes of transportation (bus, subway, train, etc.). The bus is the most common form of urban transportation in Canada. To use public transportation, you must purchase a ticket or a transit pass. Transit passes allow you unlimited use of public transportation for a specific period (one month or more). They are usually cheaper than buying many tickets if you plan to use public transportation often.Transportation for people with disabilitiesPublic transportation often has features to assist people with disabilities. In many cities and towns, there are also transportation services available specifically for people with limited mobility, such as specially equipped buses. You can find out about these services in the same way you would learn more about other public transportation options.Etiquette on public transportationWhen taking public transportation such as a bus or train, it is important to understand the unspoken rules of conduct in the shared space. Here are a few things to note:◆Be polite and respectful to others around you. For example, maintain an appropriate noise level when talking or making a phone call.◆If you are carrying a backpack or a large shoulder bag in a crowded public transit vehicle, keep it close to you, preferably at your feet to avoid hitting people with it as you walk by.◆Avoid pushing or touching others in order to make more room for yourself. Sometimes public transit can become very crowded, but it is important to keep calm and give others appropriate personal space.◆Have your proof of payment accessible in case you are asked to show it.21.What is the advantage of using transit passes over buying tickets?A.Safer trips.B. Longer service hours.C.Lower costs.D. More use of transport.22.How does the transportation system help people with disabilities?A.By running special transport services.B.By offering fewer transportation options.C.By limiting their mobility on city buses.D.By providing free rides in towns and cities.第1 页共13 页23.What is considered impolite on public transportation?A.Lowering your speaking voice.B.Placing backpacks at your feet.C.Staying close to other passengers.D.Having your proof of payment at hand.解析：21.C 根据题干中transit passes over buying tickets定位到文章第一段的最后一句“they areusually cheaper than buying many tickets if you plan to use public transportation often.”可知答案应选C。

Five weeks ago I had a total hip replacement surgery （髋关节置换手术）．In Canada, we have great healthcare system． That means we get our new hips for free．My hip had been hurting me for years before I went to the doctor． Of course, it was free． She referred me to a surgeon, but the earliest appointment was in 10 months． Thatis what being free gets you． Ten months later, after some free X﹣rays, the surgeon told me I needed a surgery, which was about an 18﹣month wait, for some senior citizens had been on the operation list． Another 18 months! I dragged myself out of the surgeon's office．Walking through the hospital, I thought about the situation． As the breadwinner of a large family, I couldn't wait that long, so I had to get to the front line． I was fully aware of what a Canadian should be like （Canadians are usually considered gentle and caring）, butthis time I really needed to fight for myself． At that very moment, in the shop window ofthe hospital, I saw a sign which read, "Volunteers Needed．" Suddenly, an idea occurred to me ﹣ I would get the job． Fortunately, they signed me up immediately because the average age of the volunteers at the shop was（1） They were desperate for some young blood．Every Friday morning， I was at the shop． While seeing the hospital staff， I'd casually ask， "What do you do？" Then I'd tell them， "Well， I'm getting my hip replaced ﹣ in 18 months． It's going to be so great when the pain stops．" Soon， all the staff got to know me． Naturally， in my next appointment，the surgeon recognized me． Moments laler， I had a surgery date just weeks away．I hadto say it was actually my volunteering that got me to the front of the line． And I'm not ashamed of it， for I intend to stick with the volunteering． Also， even when I cheated the system， I did it in a way that benefits society．24． What can we infer from the second paragraph？________A She felt rather disappointed．B She couldn't walk because of the pain．C She was too scared to have the surgery．D She didn't believe what the surgeon said．（2） Why did the writer decide to be a volunteer？________A To donate blood to the hospital．B To get her new hip free of charge．C To receive some tiny gifts from others．D To approach the doctor for an early surgery．（3） What did the author think of her cheating？________A It was a shame．B It was a pride．C It was beneficial．D It was a fair deal．（4） Which can be the best title for the text？________A How I Got My New Hip．B The Doctor Who Saved My Life．C How to Be a Volunteer in Hospital．D The Problem of Canada Healthcare System．3. A robot called Bina48 has successfully taken a course in the philosophy of love at Notre Dame de Namur University （NDNU）, in California．According to course instructor William Barry, associate professor at NDNU, Bina48 is the world's first socially advanced robot to complete a college course, a feat he described as "remarkable．" The robot took part in class discussions, gave a presentation with a student partner and participated in a debate with students from another institution．Before becoming a student, Bina48 appeared as a guest speaker in Barry s classes for several years． One day when ________ Barry's class, Bina48 expressed a desire to go college, a desire that Barry and his students enthusiastically supported． Rather than enroll Bina48 in his Robot Ethics: Philosophy of Emerging Technologies course, Barry suggested that Bina48 should take his course Philosophy of Love instead． Love is a concept Bina48 doesn't understand, said Barry． Therefore the challenge would be for Barry and his students to teach Bina48 what love is．"Some interesting things happened in the class, " said Barry． He said that his students thought it would be straightforward to teach Bina48 about love, which, after all, is "fairly simple ﹣ it's a feeling, " said Barry． But the reality was different． Bina48 ended up learning "31 different versions of love, " said Barry, highlighting some of the challenges humans may face when working artificial intelligence in future．Bina48 participated in class discussions via Skype and also took part in a class debate about love and conflict with students from West Point． Bina48's contribution to the debate was filmed and posted on YouTube． It was judged that Bina48 and NDNU classmates were the winners of this debate．In the next decade, Barry hopes Bina48 might become complex enough to teach a class, though he says he foresees robots being used to better the teaching and learning experience, rather than replacing instructors completely．（1） What was Bina48's performance like in class？________A Extraordinary．B Insignificant．C Far﹣reaching．D Unattractive．（2） What does the underlined word "addressing" in paragraph 3 probably mean？________ A Dealing with． B Consulting with． C Giving a speech to． D Sending a letter to．（3） What can we learn from the passage？________A It was interesting for Bina48 to learn about love．B It was quite tough for Bina48 to learn about love．C Artificial intelligence may somehow be superior toman． D Humans can launch a challenge to artificial intelligence．（4） What does Barry think of the future development of Bina48？________A It will surely be able to serve as a teacher．B It will be able to promote learning and teaching．C It will completely take the place of instructors．D It will be smart enough to control human beings．4. Stained glass （彩色玻璃） artists create different designs by making cuts on the glass to "score" it and then breaking off the pattern that they want to use in the finished product． The most difficult cut in stained glass is called an inside cut． Basically, it's a curved （弯曲的） line where you throw away the part inside of the curve． The problem with inside cuts is that the edges of the curve tend to break off when the pieces of scored glass are broken apart．As the artist talked about inside cuts, he said, "The glass will break into pieces if you try to cut too much off at once． The best way to do an inside cut is to slice off smaller curves piece ﹣by﹣piece． In fact, it's not just the best way lo do it, but it's the only way to do it．"How many times do you try to make a big change and cut the entire piece at once? We convince ourselves that we can do this all the time． We'll commit to transforming our diet overnight or we get inspired to launch a business in a weekend or we finally get motivated to work out and push ourselves to the edge of burning out．Why not approach your goals and dreams like a stained glass artist? Starting by slicing a shallow curve and breaking a small piece off, you cut a slightly deeper curve and break that off until you have your full inside cut． By slowly cutting deeper and deeper curves, you prevent the glass from breaking as it change shape．Of course, change isn't easy ﹣ no mailer how you do it． Slow gains are boring, but if we keep making small improvements, then pretty soon we will end up with a beautiful masterpiece on our hands instead of a bunch of broken pieces．（1） Why is an inside cut believed to be most difficult？________A It needs a one﹣and﹣only design．B It calls for nothing but inspiration．C The edges of the curve break easily．D The glass inside the curve is easily broken．（2） What mistakes are easily made according to paragraph 3？________A Being too eager to make improvements．B Being too worried about the final outcome．C Trying to make a complete change all at once．D Developing to focus on progress instead of achievements．（3） What does the author suggest by saying "slicing a shallow cure"？________A Moving forward with a clear aim．B Starting slow and improving little bylittle． C Developing a new habit with great determination，． D Handling something major first and ignore the minor part．（4） What is the author's purpose in writing the text？________A To show his love of stained glass．B To introduce the skill of an inside cut．C To appreciate designs of stained glass artists．D To share his opinions on how to make a change．第二节（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．5.Ways to Host an Eco﹣Friendly CookoutEating in the open air may feel eco﹣friendly， but outdoor dining can result in unnecessary waste if you aren't careful．（1）_______． If you keep that in mind throughout your preparations， you'll be off to a good start．Reduce， Reuse， RecycleSkip the paper invitations and use online services like Email， or Facebook events．（2）_______． This way you'll avoid ending up with five different potato salads that go uneaten． Make it easy for guests to sort garbage by positioning different trashcans in a central location： one for kitchen garbage， one for recyclables， and one for non﹣recyclables．Stop Using PlasticPlastic is a leading cause of litter and isn't easy to recycle． To make sure your cookout eco﹣friendly， consider some other options for making your cookout stand out． Use recycled jars as glasses． They're also far less breakable than regular glasses．（3）_______． If guests know which glass is theirs， they don't need to reach for another one， which cuts down on the cleanup you'll be doing．（4）_______Wherever possible， shop for local produce and goods to serve your guests． This will reduce your carbon footprint and help support your local economy． Buy produce and meats at your local farmers' market． Look for organic， but favor local over organic if youhave to make a choice．Use Renewable Light Sources（5）_______． As the sun goes down， illuminate your party space with LED lighting and solar﹣powered decorations． Invest in some citronella （香茅精油） candles and torches to help drive away insects naturally．A． Support Global EconomyB． Think Globally， Shop LocallyC． Ask guests to bring glasses of their ownD． Keep track of what everyone is bringing ahead of timeE． Save on energy by hosting your party during the daylight hoursF． One of the keys to being is to reduce waste wherever possibleG． Put up some label to the jars so people can write their names on them第三部分语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．6.

Dear Editor，Recently our school has set up a rule that no student∧ allowed to take their mobiles into class， which has aroused a lot of discussions among we students．Many of the students feel strong against the rule， arguing that the mobile had become a necessary part of our life． They also consider that a must for us to get relaxing from our busy studies．When it copies to me， like some other student I hold a different opinion． While a mobile phone can help us get some relief，with it we can be more devoted to our studies，but spare more time to communicate with those around us． Therefore， I believe in this school rule is beneficial to every student．1． allowed前面加is，考查语态，主语和allow之间是被动关系，所以用被动语态．2． we改为us，考查人称代词，作介词的宾语，所以用宾格代词．3． strong改为strongly，考查副词，修饰动词用副词．4． had改为has，考查时态，表示现在已经成为一种必需品，所以用现在完成时态．5． that改为it，考查it的用法，作形式宾语用it，不定式做真正宾语．6． relaxing改为relaxed，考查形容词，relaxing"令人放松的"；relaxed"人放松的"．7． student改为students，考查名词的数，student为可数名词，前面有some other，所以用复数．8．with改为without，考查句意，表示"没有手机，我们可以专心学习"，所以用without．9． but改为and，考查连词，表示并列而不是转折．10．去掉in，考查believe和believe in的区别，believe后面可以跟从句，believe in不可以．9.
