Germans have a word wanderlust which translated into English would be ‘the desire to wander'．Nowadays the chance to travel is endless．Thanks to cheap air tickets，travelling abroad is very easy and sometimes it's even cheaper to fly out of the country than to travel within your own．So，yes，travelling is cheap but there have to be other reasons to travel and you've right，there are plenty!
I have always had this feeling of wanderlust．It started from me wanting to explore my
local woods at the back of my garden as a young girl and as I have grown，so has my sense of adventure．And I found my local woods being replaced with the Brazil wetland，Pantanal，where I went last summer in search of jaguars，snakes and crocodiles．The thing with travelling is it's always different．Even if you went to the same country，to the same town and stayed in the exact same hotel it would be a completely different experience．The people you meet will be different，and they will tell you their own travelling stories：stories of holiday romance，holiday worries and stories that seem so outrageous that you can hardly believe them until something similar happens to you．
Or maybe the difference is you Maybe you have changed since last time you were there？And that's the thing with travelling - it changes you．When you travel you are forced to experience a new culture．Whether it's eating guinea pig，or staying with a family where neither of you speak a common language and you have to communicate through hand actions and smiles，the experience gives me itchy feet to do it all again．And although wanderlust is a German word，the English idiom "to have itchy feet" has a similar idea．Someone who has itchy feet needs to leave or travel．This desire to explore is found not only in language but in us．
18．According to Paragraph 2，what is the most important part of travelling？______ A．You can have different experiences．
B．You can hear many travelling stories．
C．You will experience holiday romance．
D．You are able to take more adventures．
19．The underlined word "outrageous" in Paragraph 2 probably means ______ ．A．interesting B．surprising
C．moving D．disappointing
20．What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refer to？______
A．Staying with a family without common languages．
B．Communicating through hand actions and smiles．
C．Eating guinea pig with a family．
D．Experiencing a different culture．
21．The writer wrote the passage in order to ______ ．
A．give various reasons for travelling
B．encourage people to travel abroad
C．explain the German word "wanderlust"
D．share the writer's travelling experiences
Many teens make risky decisions，such as careless driving or too much drinking．Some of those choices can kill them．Teens may behave in this way because they don't know the possibility of a bad result．Or they may do it because they don't care．In fact，a new study suggests that the second choice is the more likely one．
Wouter van den Bos and Ralph Hertwig are psychologists at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development in Berlin，Germany．They study how people search out information and make decisions according to what they have learned and made an experiment to see if they could solve why teens behave this way．They recruited（招募）105 people，all from 8 to 22 years old．By including different ages，the researchers could test how behavior changes from childhood through to young adulthood．
All played a kind of game．Over and over，they had to choose between taking a guaranteed（确保的）prize of five euros or turning a wheel．The wheel was divided into 10 parts．Some were orange，others blue．If the wheel stopped turning on an orange part，the player won or lost money．This could be between 3 and 32 euros．But if the wheel stopped on a blue part，they got nothing．Each of them played the game 108 times．
① The flve-euro choice was a guaranteed win．It had no risk．However，players who chose to turn the wheel had anywhere from a 10- to 90- percent chance of winning - or losing money．So turning the wheel was a risky choice．
② Teens were more likely to turn the wheel，van den Bos and Hertwig found．The teens didn't care about the lack of information on the risk they were taking．Children and adults，however，avoided those uncertain situations．Instead，they chose the guaranteed reward in the game．
③ "In the teenage years，there is a lot to explore and to learn by exploration，" van den Bos says．Many experiences are new，he says，and teens don't know how they will turn out．"Many of situations are not dangerous and are helpful in becoming an independent adult．So in general，this seems to be good for them，" he says．
④ But，he warns，it's also good to consider whether a behavior may have very harmful results．Where that's the case，he points out，teens should stop to think before they act．The results are exciting，says Valerie Reyna．A psychologist at Cornell University in
Ithaca，N．Y．，she was not involved with the new work．"The most important part of this research is the careful use of lab tasks that separate exploring the unknown from taking risks，" she says．
22．According to the passage，teens prefer to behave in a risky way because ______ ．A．they don't care much about the result
B．they don't know the possible result
C．they try to avoid uncertain situations
D．they care about the guaranteed prize
23．Which of the following is TRUE about the experiment？______
A．It studies how people search out information and make risky decisions．
B．Valerie Reyna was excited because she took part in the experiment．
C．People of different ages were included to see how behavior changes．
D．Teens were able to win money when wheels stopped on orange parts．
24．The researchers think that teens' choices ______ ．
A．are too risky
B．have both good and bad sides
C．do them good
D．have no effect on their life
25．The sentence "Teenagers' risk-taking behavior is meaningful．" should be best placed in ______ ．
A．①B．②
C．③D．④
Once when I was six years old I saw an amazing picture in a book called True Stories from Nature about the forest．It was a picture of a snake in the act of swallowing an animal．In the book it said："Snakes swallow the whole animal without chewing（嚼）it．After that they are not able to move and they sleep through the six months that they need for digestion（消化）．"
I thought deeply then over the adventures of the forest．And after some work with a colored pencil I succeeded in making my first drawing．My Drawing Number One．I showed my work to the grown-ups and asked them whether the drawing frightened them．But they answered："Frighten？Why should anyone be frightened by a hat？"
My drawing was not a picture of a hat．It was a picture of a snake digesting an elephant．But since the grown-ups were not able to understand it，I made another drawing．I drew the inside of the snake so that the grown-ups could see it clearly．They always need to have things explained．That's my Drawing Number Two．
The grown-ups' answer this time was to advise me to lay aside my drawings of snakes whether from the inside or the outside and devote myself instead to geography，history，maths and grammar．That is why at the age of six I gave up what might have been a great painter．I had been discouraged by the failure of my Drawing Number One and my Drawing Number Two．Grown-ups never understand simple things by themselves and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them．
So then I chose another profession（职业）and learned to pilot airplanes．I have flown a little over all parts of the world；and it is true that geography has been very good for me．I can tell China from Arizona easily．If one gets lost in the night，such knowledge is valuable．In my life I have had lots of chances to meet with a great many people．And that hasn't much improved my opinion of them．Whenever I met one of them who seemed to me at all clear-sighted，I tried showing him my Drawing Number One which 1have always kept．I would try to find out if this was a person of true understanding．But whoever it was，he or she would always say：That is a hat．Then I would never talk to that person about snakes or forests or stars．I would bring myself down to his level．I would talk to him about golf and politics and neckties．And the grown-up would be greatly pleased to have met such a wise man．For him I am a normal man．
26．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？______
A．The writer wants to draw a hat in Drawing Number One．
B．The writer sees an elephant eaten by a snake in the forest．
C．Drawing Number Two shows the inside of the big snake．
D．The two drawings of the writer make people very scared．
27．Why do people tell the writer to study same subjects instead of drawing in Paragraph 4？______
A．Because those subjects are more useful and helpful．
B．Because those subjects are only about simple things．
C．Because his drawings are too difficult to understand．
D．Because his drawings are not good for people at all．
28．In Paragraph 6，why does the writer always keep his Drawing Number One？______ A．To show off his good drawing．
B．To know who truly understands life．
C．To make other people pleased．
D．To bring himself down to a low level．
29．The grown-up in the last paragraph thinks the writer is normal because the writer ______ ．A．is good at drawing
B．flies a plane all over the world
C．talks about snakes or forests or stars
D．talks about sport，politics and clothing
30．The passage is most probably taken from ______ ．
A．a travel guide B．a science report
C．a news story D．a story book

参考答案
1．D
【解析】
【详解】
考查动词辨析。

句意：Rose为他对她说的话感到难为情，垂下头来，脸红了。

A使恼怒；B 使舒服；C使惊讶；D使尴尬，根据题意，故选D。

2．A
【详解】
考查将来进行时。

句意：--如果你看到Sally，你能叫她给我打个电话吗？--当然可以，今天晚上我就会见到她，那时我就告诉她。

根据语境中this evening和then可知，时间状语为"
将来的某个时间点"，所以用将来进行时，即will be doing，B项为将来完成时，C项为过去将来时，D项为现在完成时，故选A。

3．B
【解析】
【详解】
考查动词辨析。

句意：我在想是否这个男人是我们的新校长，但是很快我就摒弃了这个想法，因为他太年轻了。

dismiss解散、摒弃、不予考虑；discourage使气馁、使泄气；disturb打扰、妨碍；dislike不喜欢，根据题意，故选B。

4．A
【解析】
【详解】
考查动词短语辨析。

句意：为了应对新的市场挑战，该公司已加紧生产最新型号。

A 加速；
B 弥补；
C 占据；
D 表现出来，根据题意，故选A。

5．B
【解析】
【详解】
考查定语从句。

句意：有人说，属于野人的大脚印被发现。

分析句子可知some people say 是插入语，______some people say belong to the Wild Man．是一个定语从句，先行词是tracks，关系词在定语从句中作主语，指物，所以用which ，故选B。

6．C
考查现在完成进行时。

句意：——那不可能！他们已经四十分钟了还没有人进球。

——太糟糕了，时间快过一半了。

根据for forty minutes 可知他们已经进行了四十分钟了还没进球，再根据下句It's almost half-time可知还要进行下去，所以要用现在完成进行时表示“表示从过去某时开始一直持续到现在的动作，并且还将持续下去”的动作，所以C符合语境，故选C。

7．B
【解析】
【详解】
考查短语辨析。

句意：---你觉得这本书怎么样？——它不仅仅是一本书，它还是一本很好的求职者指南。

other than 除了，不同于…；more than 超过，不仅仅是；rather than 而不是；less than 少于，不到，故选B。

8．D
【解析】
【详解】
考查连词辨析。

句意：在苏州，网上学习很受学生欢迎，因为用这种方法你可以自由选择学习的时间和内容。

根据句意可知，前后句子之间是因果关系，只有D符合选项，A表示当…时候，或者用在句子中间表转折，B表假设，C表让步，都不符合，故选D。

9．A
【解析】
【详解】
考查名词辨析。

句意：威廉王子，英国女王的孙子，说当他考虑参军的时候，他不会期待或者接受特别的对待。

treatment治疗、对待，这里指跟其他士兵不同的对待；achievement成就；statement声明、陈述；requirement要求、需要，根据句意，故选A。

10．D
【解析】
【详解】
考查语言交际。

句意：——我们以前见过吗？你好像是理查德先生。

——是的。

我们在詹姆斯的生日聚会上见过吗？A项意为我也一样，B项意为我确实如此，C项意为我也是，D 项意为是的，我是，根据句意，故选D。

【解析】
【详解】
考查定语从句。

句意：——知道了!工程师一开始就出现了错误。

——哦，一着不慎，满盘皆输。

______the engineer went wrong．是一个定语从句，the first step是先行词，关系词在定语从句中作地点状语，表示“在第一步就出现了错误”，所以用关系副词where，故选B。

【点睛】
这个题目很容易选择C，看见step前面有序数词the first修饰，认为是只用that不用which 的情况。

但是还要看在定语从句中充当的成分，作状语不能选择关系代词，应该是关系副词。

12．A
【解析】
【详解】
考查现在分词。

句意：当早上收集垃圾时，这个清洁工看见一个穿着黑外套的高个子男人正在办公室外等着。

see sb doing是看见某人正在做某事，所以A选项符合题意，故选A。

13．C
【详解】
考查动词短语辨析。

句意：——怎么了？你看起来很高兴。

——我刚在平江路偶然遇到了简，我的一个老同学。

A. came over经过；B. came about发生；C. came across偶然遇见；D. came around苏醒。

根据题意可知，此处指“偶然遇到了简。

”故选C。

14．D
【解析】
【详解】
考查虚拟语气和时态。

句意：马云坚持认为如果一切顺利，就不会有优秀的商人，他们在困难面前照常前进。

insist表示“坚持认为”讲，表示从句内容虽然还不是事实，但非常希望它成为事实，这时宾语从句用“should+动词原形”，should可以被省略的虚拟语气；if条件状语从句中went用过去时，并列句中的谓语也用过去时carried，故选D。

【点睛】
虚拟语气在高考命题中不是重点，但是难点。

考点常集中在含蓄条件句以及主语、宾语从句等特定句型中虚拟语气的使用上，因此考生应熟练掌握含蓄条件句中主从句的时态要求以及一些典型句型中虚拟语气的具体形式。

【解析】
【详解】
考查情景对话。

句意：——当他被邀请参加聚会的时候，他总是惹麻烦或者让人心烦。

——就像认识他的人说的那样，他总是一个令人扫兴的人。

a wet blanket令人扫兴的人或物；the top dog领袖人物；pull our leg同我们开玩笑；green fingers园艺技能，根据句意，
故选C。
