Some may turn up their noses at eating meat that was once more common in pet food than pies． Others may raise an eyebrow or even an objection to being served one half of their country’s coat of arms．Kangaroo may not be to everyone’s taste, but if some of the country’s leading scientists have their way, it could soon be leapfrogging beef as Australia’s favourite meat．People have been eating kangaroo for some 40, 000 years, and in the last 10 years consumption has doubled． It is very healthy meat: free﹣range, free of chemicals, andfed by a natural diet． It is also exceptionally low in fat; a kangaroo meat has less than two percent fat whereas a typical beef steak has between ten and twenty percent． It may not sizzle on a barbeque like a beef T﹣bone does, but it is rich in iron, full of protein, and highin Conjugated Linoleic Acids （CLAs） that can reduce heart disease and obesity． Research conducted by Clare Engelke at the University of Western Australia showed that kangaroo can have up to five times more CLAs than other meat．Kangaroo farmers already harvest three million kangaroos each year and Dr． Kelvin George, a leading wildlife consultant, is keen to see this figure increase．“Kangaroos are soft﹣footed animals that damage plants far less than cloven﹣hoofed cattle, ” he says．“They do not hard en the all﹣important layer of the soil．”Dr． George is not the only expert to identify the environmental benefits of farming kangaroos．A report by economist Professor Ross Garnaut argues that Australia’s farmanimal industry is a greater contributor to climate change than the coal industry． Methane emitted by sheep and cows accounts for about 11percent of Australia’s greenhouse gases． A switch from cattle to kangaroo could change this: kangaroos produce very little amounts of the gas．Many cattle farmers, however, are unimpressed by Garnaut’s report． A quick scan of farming websites reveals counter﹣arguments ranging from a lack of consumer interest in kangaroo meat to the inaccuracy of the methane emission figures． Charlie McElhone from the Natio nal Farmers’ Federation argues that a switch from moo to roo could seriously damage Australia’s meat export industry．Ultimately it will be left to consumers to determine whether kangaroo steaks are on or off the menu． If consumer demand fails to match the supply, this could cost farmers millions of dollars each year． It could be argued, however, that the cost of ignoring kangaroo meat may be far greater．（1）In this text， the writer presents the kangaroo as________．A.a symbol of freedom．B.a marketable product．C.an endangered species．D.an environmental problem．（2）Why is the coal industry mentioned in this text？________A.To give an example of an industry in decline．B.To show the energy needs of large industries．C.To provide a comparison with the farm animal industry．D.To present an alternative viewpoint to that of Garnaut．（3）What is the cattle﹣farming community’s response to Garnaut’s report？________A.Cattle farmers are debating the report’s findings．B.Cattle farmers have shown no interest in the report．C.Cattle farmers are eager to engage Garmaut in discussion．D.Cattle farmers are willing to follow Garmaut’s suggestions．（4）Who will decide the production of kangaroo meat？________A.Consumers．B.Kangaroo farmers．C.Environmental experts．D.University researchers．【答案】BCAA【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文是一篇社会文化类阅读，文章主要介绍了有些人可能会对吃肉嗤之以鼻，这种肉在宠物食品中曾经比馅饼更为常见．另一些人可能会对自己国家一半的军大衣表示不满甚至反对．袋鼠肉可能不是每个人都喜欢，但如果这个国家的一些顶尖科学家有他们的方法，它可能很快就会超越牛肉成为澳大利亚最受欢迎的肉类．【解答】（1）B．细节理解题．根据“People have been eating kangaroo for some 40，000 years，and in the last 10 years consumption has doubled．．”可知在这篇文章中，作者介绍了袋鼠作为可出售的产品．故选B．（2）C．细节理解题．根据“A report by economist Professor Ross Garnaut argues that Australia’s farm animal industry is a greater contributor to cli mate change than the coal industry．”可知本文中提到了煤炭行业是为了提供与农场动物产业的比较．故选C．（3）A．推理判断题．根据“Many cattle farmers， however， are unimpressed by Garnaut’s report． A quick scan of farming websites reveals counter﹣arguments ranging from a lack of consumer interest in kangaroo meat to the inaccuracy of the methane emission figures．”可知养牛的农民们正在讨论该报告的发现．故选A．（4）A．推理判断题．根据“Ultimately it will be left to consumers to determine whether kangaroo steaks are on or off the menu”可知消费者将决定袋鼠肉的生产．故选A．4.

When people have been through a negative（负面的）experience, they tend to usethe word “you” rather than “I” when talking about it, researchers have found． Researchers at the University of Michigan, conducted nine experiments with nearly 2, 500 people to understand the meaning behind the use of the word “you” in the context（上下文）of speaking about and sharing understanding on their own experiences． They found that when people use the word “you” to make meaning from negative experiences, it allows them to normalize the experience and reflect on it from a distance．For example, when people use the phrase “you win some, you lose so me”, it indicatesthat a person has failed in a situation, but by using the word “you”,they’re expressing that the experience they went through could happen to anyone, said Ms Orvell, a researcher in the Department of Psychology．“Or saying that ‘whe n you are angry, you say and do things that you will most likely regret’ might actually explain a personal situation, but the individual（个人）attempts to make it something many people relate to, ” Ms Orvell said．In one of the experiments, the researchers asked participants to write about a personal experience． They had to write something from a negative event． They used the word “you” many times．The research also found that using the word “you” led people to viewthe event as being more distant．“We suspect that it’s the ability to move beyond your own perspectiveto express shared, universal experiences that allows individuals to get broader meanings from personal events, ” Orvell said．（1）Why do people like to use “you” when talking about a nega tive experience？________A.They do not really care about what they are speaking about．B.They would like the others also have the same experience．C.They will think the

experiences？________A.By observing away from a further place．B.By getting the ability to explain the situation．C.By forming a very strange experience．D.By going through what could happen to anyone．（4） What would be the best title for the text？________A.Deal with Negative Situations Positively．B.Why People Say “You” When Sharing Bad News．C.What People Say When Talking about Bad News．D.What People Do

negative experiences， it allows them to normalize the experience and reflect on it from a distance可知人们在谈论负面体验时喜欢使用"你因为他们会认为这种糟糕的经历是正常的；故选C．（2）D..细节理解题．根据文章Or saying that ‘when you are angry， you say and do things that you will most likely regret’ might actually explain a personal situation， but the individual（个人）attempts to make it something many people relate

Finance.C.Entertainment.D.Science and Technology.BI love to read before I go to sleep.It usually makes me feel calm.But a big part of this depends on what I read.I love to read Oor Wullie and The Broons.Very often I’m smiling before I go to sleep.I decide to write about this in a blog because I find that so many of us go to sleep with stress.Before we go to sleep,we may run over the day in our minds,and worry about tomorrow.We also may watch the news on TV,read the news on our smart phones or tablets,or even answer work emails.But the news is rarely proclaiming (宣告) all the things that are happening in the world and work emails make us feel that we’re still at work.All these things may leave us a stressful sleep.Oor Wullie and The Broons are not the only things I ever read at night.I sometimes read novels but,with the odd exception,I mostly avoid anything that is too mentally taxing or stimulating late at night unless it’s something that inspires me or is clearly helpful in my life.And even if I do read something mentally stimulating,when I feel myself getting tired I lay that book down and pick up trusty old Oor Wullie or The Broons for the last 10 or 15 minutes.Doing this makes my mind quiet and helps ensure that I get a peaceful sleep.Reading about Wullie or Maw and Paw Broon is like a comfort blanket for me.I’d suggest you find light-hearted reading as a comfort blanket at bedtime,especially if you find yourself stressed or depressed a lot of the time,or if you find difficulty winding at the end of a day.It is the thing that can gently turn your attention towards lightness and ease.If your material makes you laugh,then you may feel even better.Several studies show that laughter boosts happy chemicals in the brain.It strengthens the immune system,it’s good for the heart,and it is most definitely good for mental health.It even helps us improve our relationships.And if you do happen to pick up a copy of Oor Wullie or The Broons,I hope you find it just as entertaining as I do.24.What can we learn about Oor Wullie and The Broons?A.They make people run over the past days.B.They are the best books to be read before people sleep.C.They are extremely popular with young people.D.They make people feel relaxed and happy.25.What can we know from the text?A.Oor Wullie and The Broons are the author’s favorite books.B.A comfortable blanket makes people go to sleep easily.C.The author sometimes reads something about inspiration.D.Reading something stimulating at night helps get a peaceful sleep.26.What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?A.What material brings us laughter.B.How laughter affects our health.C.What benefits laughter brings to us.D.Why laughter is good for us.27.What’s the main purpose of the text?A.To show the importance of reading before sleeping.B.To prove the importance of a good mood before sleeping.C.To tell us how to make ourselves stay relaxed before sleeping.D.To explain how to choose a book worthy to be read before sleeping.CSometimes people call each other “scared-cat”.But have you ever thought about this expression?When a cat is frightened,its heart starts beating faster,its muscles get tense and there are changes in the chemicals in itsbloodstream.Although the cat doesn’t realize this,its body is getting ready for action.If the danger continues,the animal will do one of two things.It will protect itself,or it will run away as fast as it can.Something like this also happens to people.When we are excited,angry or scared by other feelings,our bodies go through many physical changes.Our hearts beat faster,and our muscles get tense.All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react.We,too,get ready to defend ourselves or run.Human beings,however,have a problem that animals never face.If we give way to our feelings and let them take over,we can get into trouble.Have you ever said something in anger or hit somebody and regretted it later?Have you ever shouted at a teacher,told somebody you were lonely,or said you were in love,and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut?It isn’t always clever to express your feelings freely.Does this mean that it’s smarter to always hide our feelings?No!If you keep feelings of anger or sadness hidden away or bottled up inside,your body stays tense.Physical illness can develop,and you can feel disturbed badly inside.It can actually be bad for your health.It isn’t good to keep pleasant feelings inside either; all feelings need to be expressed.Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside don’t just go away.It’s as if you bought some bananas and put them in a cupboard.You might not be able to see them,but before long you’d smell them.And if you opened the cupboard,chances are that you’d see little fruit flies flying all over them.They are bad.You can try to treat feelings as if they were bananas in the cupboard.You can hide them and you can pretend they don’t exist,but they’ll still be around.And at last you’ll have to deal with them,just like those bananas.28.When people and animals are aroused by fear,.A.they feel very regretful immediatelyB.their muscles get neither tense nor relaxedC.their hearts beat either faster or slowerD.they may get ready to attack or run away29.Why do human beings get into trouble according to the passage?A.They are usually not as alert as animals.B.They sometimes can’t control their feelings.C.They always do something wrong to other people.D.They don’t pay attention to their physical changes.30.What can we infer from the passage?A.Holding in your feelings may lead to unpleasant results.B.Bananas stay fresh longer when they are in a cupboard.C.Feelings will gradually disappear when you hold them in.D.It’s good for your health to keep pleasant feelings inside.31.What is the purpose of this passage?A.To tell us that people’s feelings are like bananas in a cupboard.B.To give us some advice on how to express our feelings.C.To help us deal with feelings in a wise and proper way.D.To prove that it isn’t always wise to express our feelings freely.DSome people are so rude!Who sends an e-mail or a text message that just says “Thank you”?Who leaves a voice mail message rather than texts you?Who asks for a fact easily found on Google?Don’t these people realize that they’re wasting your time?Maybe I’m the rude one for not appreciating life’s little politeness.But many social agreed standards just don’t make sense to people drowning in digital communication.In texts,you don’t have to declare who you are or even say hello.E-mail,too,is slower than a text.Voice mail is a now impolite way of trying to connect.My father learned this lesson after leaving me a dozen voice mail messages,none of which I listenedto.Exasperated,he called my sister to express his dissatisfaction that I never returned his phone calls.“Why are you leaving him voice mail?” my sister asked.“Just text him.”In the age of the smartphone,there is no reason to ask once-acceptable questions about:the weather forecast,a business’s phone number,or directions to a house,a restaurant,which can be easily found on Google Maps.But people still ask these things.And when you answer,they respond with a thank-you e-mail.How to handle these differing standards?Easy.Consider your audience.Some people,especially olderones,appreciate a thank-you message.Others,like me,want no reply.The anthropologist (人类学家) Margaret Mead once said that in traditional societies,the young learnt from the old.But in modern societies,the old can also learn from the young.Here’s hoping that politeness never goes out of fashion but that time-wasting forms of communication do.32.What does the underlined word “Exasperated” mean in the fifth paragraph?A.Worried.B.Surprised.C.Annoyed.D.Tired.33.Why didn’t the writer reply to his father?A.He liked text messages better.B.He enjoyed checking his voice mail.C.He didn’t receive any voice mail messages.D.He didn’t want to talk with his father.34.Which of the following does the writer agree to?A.People needn’t learn from one another in traditional societies.B.Dealing with voice mail should vary with each individual.C.People needn’t turn to Google for help when in trouble.D.Declaring who you are or saying hello in texts is necessary.35.What’s the best title of this passage?A.Nowadays:what should we do with text messages?B.Nowadays:do you like leaving others a voice message?C.Nowadays:what means should we use in communication?D.Nowadays:do you need a thank-you message?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。

AAustralians really know how to have a good time. Any type of hobby that you can think of can be found in Australia. The following are four top Australian pastimes.FishingFishing is probably one of the most popular free-timeactivities in Australia and many people love spending their free time waiting at the end of a rod for a fish to bite on their line. There is free public access to almost all beaches， canals and coasts， which means there are plenty of great places to fish.SurfingAnother popular pastime of the Australians is surfing.Australia has a lot of beautiful surf spots ， especially in Queensland. Queensland has some of the best surf beaches in the country such as Noosa Heads， Stradbroke Island， and Burleigh Heads ， with the Gold Coast being the best known.BoatingWhat else does an Australian do for fun on the weekend ？They might go for a ride on their boat ！Plenty of Australians live on the coast and are boat owners. Boat owners might take their craft out to go fishing ， or they might just want to sail around the waters slowly.BarbecuesAustralians will also typically host barbecues with their friends and family. They really know how to barbecue. The standard of meat that is cooked and the quality of the cooking is second to none. With New Zealand being so close ， the lamb is fresh and absolutely remarkable. But the lamb is not all that is cooked. Any one barbecue in Australia can expect upwards of 7 types of meat， from shrimps （?r） to kangaroos.21. Which of the following surf spots is the most famous in Queensland？A. Noosa Heads.B. the Gold Coast.C. Burleigh Heads.D. Stradbroke Island.22. What can we infer from the last paragraph ？A. Tourists can hire boats to go for a ride.B. Tourists prefer fishing to other pastimes.C. The lamb is imported from New Zealand.D. People in New Zealand have better cooking skills.23. What are most of the four top Australian pastimesrelated to？A. Water.B. Sightseeing.C. Food.D. Deserts.BIt ’s a rainy， cold winter afternoon. The boys are playingin their rooms ， so it’s the perfect time to do some baking ， just enjoying the peaceful moment as I knead（揉） bread dough（生面团） . Suddenly， there is the sound of shouting， tears， a door slam， followed one of them calling ，“ Mom ！ He hurt me！” and footsteps running up the stairs. I sigh. My younger son is standing in front of me in tears. I go to hug him as myelder son comes up too， ready to defend his position. All hopeof some quiet time has disappeared， but I just don ’t feel like playing judge today.“So， who wants to help me bake some bread？” I askbrightly ， ignoring their angry looks at not being able to tell me their tales of bitterness. No takers.“Bread is boring ，”Tristan finally admits. “ Okay， what would you like to make ？”I ask.“Chocolate！”Sawyer yells ，breaking free of my embrace.“Chocolate chip cookies ！”Tristan agrees happily.As I watch Sawyer practice breaking eggs and Tristan reading on his own and patiently instructing his brother on how to measure brown sugar and see their excitement as they use the mixer to grind oats ， I know there ’s nothing else I’d rather be doing.The kitchen is a disaster. There is egg juice on the counter，flour on the floor ， and a mountain of dishes to clean up. But peering through the mess are two happy faces― covered in chocolate， of course， but， smiling ear to ear---and the mess，and their previous fight ， is forgotten.As we close the curtains ， we sit together on the sofa， anddig into the big plate of cookies ， fresh from the oven ， baked with love and more than a dash of silliness.24. Why did the writer sigh ？A. Her two sons fought again.B.She couldn ’t do any baking.C.She had to play with naughty sons.D.Rain ruined a good winter afternoon.25. Why do the writer ’ s two sons look angry ？A. They have to do some houseworkB. They can’ t play referee todayC. They have no chance to complainD. They consider themselves treated unfairly26.While baking chocolate ， the two boys ______.A. asked the writer to go for a restB. got along well with each otherC. did everything as the writer askedD. planned everything carefully in advance27.Which of the following can be the best title for thetext？A. Everything Is a DisasterB. Baking Is TerribleC. Sons Can CookD. Chocolate Cookies End a FightCWhat is the most common cause for people in the UK toask for leave due to illness ？ The answer is not the common cold or flu ， but back pain. Back pain affects one in three British adults， costs the country over 5 billion pounds every year and is very difficult to treat. But now Britain's National HealthService（ NHS ） will be offering a new solution ： acupuncture. The ancient Chinese needle treatment has been around in the UK for many years ， but this is the first time it has been officially approved by the NHS.Traditionally ， doctorsin the UK have advised back pain sufferers to stay active ， do stretching exercises and take painkillers when necessary. In more serious cases some people are given X-ray treatment or injections with medicines.However ， there is evidence that acupuncture may be moreeffective than expensive X-rays or injections ， so patients who have been suffering for over six weeks should be given a choice. As an alternative to acupuncture ， patients will be able to choose either a course of spinal manipulation（脊柱推拿）， or a series of special exercise sessions. In the UK， acupuncture is regarded as an aiding treatment， which means medical procedure hasn’t experienced serious experiments by which scientists prove some treatments work. While many experts have welcomed the policy to make acupuncture available on theNHS ， some are still skeptical about its effectiveness.Research from the US earlier this month found that similaracupuncture using toothpicks（牙签） which do not stick intothe skin could be as good as using real needles. So while some are yet to be convinced ， back pain sufferers will be hopingthat acupuncture helps get them feeling healthy again.28.According to the passage， which is the best way to treat back pain？A. To stay active.B. To be acupunctured.C. To do stretching exercisesD. To take X-ray treatment or injections.29. Why are some people still doubtful about the effectiveness of acupuncture？A. Because they have other choices.B. Because acupuncture is just an aiding treatment.C.Because using toothpicks is as good as using real needles.D. Because acupuncture hasn’ t been tested by scientists strictly.30. What does the author want to prove in the last paragraph？A. Acupuncture can be an effective treatment for back pain.B. Toothpicks is a useful tool for acupuncture.C. Needles are no better than toothpicks.D. Toothpicks will take place of needles in the future.31. What does the passage mainly talk about？A. The magic needles.B. Acupuncture in the UK.C. The ways to treat back pain.D. The reasons for people to ask for leave.DYoung children often “read” picture books. They ’ re attracted by the colorful scenery and the realistic characters that contribute to fascinating plots.Unfortunately ， some children can’t use these resources，even if they do know how to read. Take three-year old Elodie Bateson， for example. Elodie was born with under-developed eyes and has retinal detachments（ ?网膜零落），making her visually impaired.It is because of people like Elodiethat Tom Yeh， head of the Tactile Picture Books Project ， has started printing 3D books ， so they can feel the illustrations in picture books.The first book Tom Yeh printed was Goodnight Moon ， a popular children ’ s book about a rabbit going to sleep and wishing good night to his surroundings. In the 3D version of this book， children can feel each thing that the rabbit says good night to ， whether it is a cow jumping over the moon ， a balloon ， or a dollhouse.Generally ， when children grow older ， they read by using Braille ， a language that was invented by Louis Braille in 1824. It uses different patterns of raised dots representing differentletters. Readers can then feel the dots and mentally translatethe patterns they feel into words. The only problem is that many blind children do not start learning Braille until they are about six years old.Another reason why 3D printed books are such a valuable resource is that children don ’t have to know how to read to understand them. However， without these ， visually impaired kids are losing six developmental years vital to their growth since they can’ t take advantage of picture books.When 3D picture books are printed ， plastic is layered（分层搁置） repeatedly over a single shape： the shape of the illustration. These raised pictures created through layered plastic serve as substitutes for the Braille letters that little children have no knowledge of.32. What does the underlined word“impaired ”in paragraph 2mean？A. Unmatched.B. Disappeared.C. Defeated.D. Damaged.33. What can we know about Braille from Paragraph 5 ？A. The blind at any age can read by using Braille.B. Most people can translate Braille into words.C. Blind kids begin learning Braille at about six years old.D. Braille uses similar patterns of raised dots to stand for different letters.34. We can know that the illustrations in 3D booksare raised ______.A. dotsB. picturesC. lettersD. plastic35. What is the aim of the Tactile Picture Books Project ？A. To teach the blind children Braille.B. To encourage kids to read books.C. To cure visually impaired children.D. To help the blind children read picture books.第二 ? （共 5 小题，每题 2 分，满分10 分）依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项，选项中有两项为剩余选项。

ATo achieve further education, international students must take a standardized test of English. Three popular tests are TOEFL, TOEIC, and IELTS.Here are several introductions for a student applying to a school to learn which test the program requires.The TOEIC tests workplace communicationThe TOEIC test started in the 1970s. The TOEIC is based on English used in the workplace. But the test does not require knowledge of special business words. The questions come from real situations like attending a company meeting.ETS says that 14,000 organizations in 150 countries use the TOEIC.The TOEFL tests English used in the classroomThere are several versions of the TOEFL.Students take the Internet-based TOEFL, or TOEFL IBT, on a computer. Many U.S. universities require the TOEFL IBT for international student admissions. Another TOEFL is the paper-based TOEFL, or TOEFL ITP. It is part of ETS’s institutional testing program. TOEFL ITP is used within institutions for the purpose of placement or to evaluate progress of students. It is not accepted for entrance to universities.For young English learners, there are two new TOEFL tests. The TOEFL Junior T est is for youngpeople between 11 and 15 years old. And the TOEFL Primary T est is for those over the age of eight.IELTS tests academic and general language skillsThe IELTS has two forms. The Listening and Speaking sections are the same for both forms. In the Reading and Writing sections, however, there are two different tests.The Academic IELTS uses topics and materials covered in undergraduate, graduate, or professional programs.The General IELTS uses topics and material from everyday books, newspapers and magazines.1. Which kind of TOEFL is used within institutions for the purpose of placement or to evaluate progress of students?A. TOEFL IBT.B. TOEFL ITP.C. TOEFL Junior Test.D. TOEFL Primary T est.2. According to the passage, which description is Not right?A. The TOEIC test includes questions coming from real situations like attending a company meeting.B. Many U.S. universities require the TOEFL IBT forinternational student admissions.C. The Academic IELTS uses topics and materials covered in undergraduate, graduate, or professional programs.D. The Listening and Writing sections are the same for The Academic IELTS and The General IELTS.3. The writer wrote the article mainly to ___________.A. make an introduction about three popular testsB. place an advertisement for three popular testsC. give a business talk about three popular testsD. give a lesson on three popular testsBNASA on Thursday announced the discovery of Kepler-452b, the most Earth-like planet ever found.Located 1,400 light-years from our planet, NASA called it “Earth 2.0”, because it’s the first planet discovered in the habitable zone of a G star similar to our sun.“We can think of Kepler-452b as an older, bigger cousin to Earth, providing an opportunity to understand and reflect upon Earth’s evolving environment,” said Jon Jenkins, the Kepler data analysis lead at NASA's Ames Research Center.The planet is 5 percent farther away from its star than Earth is to the sun, making for a slightly longer year of 385 days, but gets similar light because its sun is 20 percent brighter than our own.“The sunshine from this star would feel very similar to the sunshine from our star,” Jenkins told reporters.NASA believes the planet has a mass about five times more massive than Earth’s, with a rocky surface below a thicker atmosphere than our own. Gravity would be about twice as strong on Kepler-452b as it is on Earth, NASA said.The planet is located in the Kepler-452 system in the constellation Cygnus (天鹅座). Its sun has the same surface temperature as our own, but has a diameter that is 10 percent larger. While NASA scientists have no idea if Kepler-452b’s at mosphere is conducive to life, they do know that there has been plenty of time for organisms to develop.“It’s awe-inspiring to consider this planet spent 6 billion years in the habitable zone of its star, which is longer the age of the Ea rth,” Jenkins said. “That is considerable time and opportunity for life to arise somewhere on its surface or oceans if all the necessary conditions for life exist on this pla net.”4. The reason why NASA called Kepler-452b “Earth 2.0” is that ___________.A. it is 5 percent farther away from its star than Earth is to the sunB. it has a mass about five times more massive than Earth’sC. it’s the first planet discovered in the h abitable zone of a G star similar to our sunD. it is longer the age of the Earth5. According to the passage, we know that ____________.A. Kepler-452b is located in the constellation CygnusB. Kepler-452b’s atmosphere is conducive to lifeC. gravity would be about twice as strong on Earth as it is on Kepler-452bD. the sunshine from Kepler-452b would feel very different from the sunshine from earth6. The underlined part “habitable zone” in the last paragraph refers to ___________.A. a large area which is different from othersB. a small area which is the same as othersC. a large area which is good enough for people to live inD. a small area which is hard for people to live in7. What type of writing is the text? It’s ____________.A. an exhibition guide.B. an art show review.C. a science fictionD. a news reportCAre you trying to learn a new language in a foreign land? You might be better off if you stopped looking at that picture of your family and friends.New research from Columbia University found that prompting someone who is learning a new language with images and reminders of their own culture could temporarily ruin everything that the brain was trying to build. When native Chinese students were asked to talk with a Caucasian avatar (白种人的虚拟头像) and a Chinese avatar, their English skills were so different. Simply exposing students to a Chinese person affected their ability to speak English. Subjects who talked with the Chinese version felt more comfortable in their speech, but they produced 11% fewer words per minute. They actually became less fluent speakers.To make sure it wasn't just the avatar, researchers also showed people random images of China while the participants told a story. When pictures of their homeland appeared, fluency dropped 16% and volunteers were 85% more likely to use a literal translation, for example, calling pistachios “happy nuts”, because that's literally what the Chinese word for pistachio means.When the students were shown pictures of fish with one swimming ahead of the others, their culture would change how they look at the photo. With Chinese prompts (提示), like photos of the Great Wall or Chinese Dragon, etc. they saw more students thinking that the fish was being chased, while an American prompt, like pictures of Marilyn Monroe or Superman, saw those students believing that it was a leader fish. Why are our cultural symbols Marilyn Monroe and Superman?The bottom line is: when attempting to learn a new culture it is far better to surround yourself withthat culture than create an island of the old one.8. Why does the author use a question in the first paragraph?A. To raise a question.B. To arouse readers’ awareness.C. To introduce the topic.D. T o tell a story.9. The underlined word “pistachios” in the fou rth paragraph refers to ___________.A. picturesB. a kind of foodC. volunteersD. an image10. From the passage we can infer that ___________.A. with Chinese prompts, more students thought that it was a leader fishB. with an American prompt, more students thought that the fish was being chasedC. different images would change with different peopleD. different cultures would affect how students look at the photo11. According to the research, which is a better way for a student ina foreign land to learn a new culture?A. To surround himself with that culture.B. T o create an island of the old one.C. To see random images of China.D. T o talk with a Caucasian avatar.DJust three days after hitting the screen across China, the Chinese animation (动画) film “Monkey King: Hero is Back”aroused enthusiasm among audience and ticket sales have exceeded（超过）100 million yuan ($16.11 million). Web celebrities and many fans even posted top ics about the film on China’s Twitter-like Weibo, atwhich heated discussion are sparked.“Monkey King: Hero is Back” is based on the household legend of the Monkey King, but tells a not-so familiar story. However, it’s still a Chinese s tyle heroic legend and an exciting adventure against evil and darkness in troubled times, according to。

To go on a vacation．CMany people feel stressed out about buying and giving gifts around holidays．But have the holidays become too materialistic and more about the gifts than the feelings behind them?Throughout the world，many cultures mark holidays with gifts and food．Holiday traditions bring people together and allow us to feel a part of family and community．The gifts and food that we share are all about expressing a sense of appreciation and joy．The gifts of a few generations ago were probably more common and homemade．Even the people who could afford expensive presents probably didn’t do as much buying and spending as we do today．But with our culture growing more commercial，sometimes the original meaning behind the tradition gets lost．Not only is the pressure on spending money on the right present，but many people also find that when gifts become the focus of a holiday，it puts too much emphasis on receiving．It’s too easy to have high expectations of what’s in that beautifully wrapped box—and that can set anyone up for disappointment．No wonder we often hear about people having the“holiday blues”—feeling sad or empty．Not all people think the holidays are too materialistic，of course．Most appreciate the traditional aspects of the holidays．And some love shopping and are just fine with a11 the giving and receiving．But if you’re feeling a little empty about the holidays，what can you do? One key to a relaxing and meaningful holiday is finding what works best for you，both in terms of gift giving and other holiday traditions．Putting some thought into what the holidays mean to you and then focusing your energies on those aspects that leave you feeling most satisfied can help you let go of the stuff that may be stressing you out．28．What can we learn about the holiday gifts generations ago?A. They were valueless．B. They were highly valued．C. They were given little attention．D. They were more about expressing feelings．29．What is the result of focusing too much on receiving?A. Receivers are often disappointed．B. Gifts become the focus of holidays．C. Our culture grows more commercial．D. Much more money was spent on gifts．30．According to the text，how can we make holidays more meaningful?A. Avoiding giving and receiving gifts．B. Figuring out your real expectations．C. Doing some shopping in the holidays．D. Putting more thought into the gifts to give．31．What can be the best title for the text?A. The Changes in Giving GiftsB. What Stresses You out on Holidays?C. Are the Holidays Too Materialistic?D. The Development of Holiday TraditionsDAsking a patient to hum(哼唱)piano tunes and play fin instrument while undergoing brain surgery(手术)may sound like a strange request from a doctor．However，that is exactly what a team of brain specialists，led by Pilcher，requested Dan Fabbio to do．In 2015，the then 25-year-old musician was diagnosed with a brain tumor(肿瘤)，which was located in the part of the brain known to be active when people listen to and make music．“Removing a tumor from the brain can have significant consequences depending on its location，”Pilcher says．“Both the tumor and the operation can damage tissue and affect communication between different parts of the brain．”Fabbio，therefore，feared the surgery would cause him to lose his musical ability．To prevent that from happening，Pilcher and his colleague designed many tests，including asking Fabbio to listen to piano tunes and hum back during MRI scans．This enabled the physicians to locate the area that is vital for music and language processing and create a 3-D map of Fabbio’s brain．Despite the great starting point，it was not a perfect way to prevent possible damage to the．The only way was to keep the patient awake and ask him to hum piano tunes during the surgery so that the surgeons could identify the areas to avoid．While the surgery went smoothly，the real test came when Fabbio was asked to play a song on his saxophone．The tunehad been simplified to ensure that it would not require too much strength and cause harm to the stitches(缝线)in the brain．He played it faultlessly，and when he finished，the entire operating room erupted in applause．The researchers say that a year after the groundbreaking surgery，the young musician can once again hear tunes in everything—even his electric toothbrush．32．What can we infer from P ilcher’s words in Paragraph 2?A. Fabbio’s brain was seriously damaged．B. The surgery would be a huge challenge．C. Fabbio’s brain parts failed to communicate．D. The surgery had to be performed immediately．33．What’s the major difficulty in Fabbio’s surg ery?A. To keep his brain active．B. To help him overcome fear．C. To protect his musical ability．D. To enable him to play an instrument．34．What does the underlined word“it”in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Creating a 3-D map of Fabbio’s brain．B. Removing the tumor from Fabbio’s brain．C. Keeping Fabbio awake during the surgery．D. Listening to piano tunes during MRI scans．35．Why was Fabbio requested to hum piano tunes during the surgery?A. To save his strength．B. To check the surgery result．C. To make the stitches work easier．D. To locate the vital area for music．三、七选五Gratitude(感恩)is a social feeling．Many people see it as relationship—strengthening because it requires us to see how we’ve been supported and recognized by other people．First，it’s belief o f goodness．We are convinced that there are good things in the world，gifts and benefits we’ve received．The second part of gratitude is figuring out where that goodness comes from．36．It doesn’t come from anything we necessarily did ourselves．Instead，we acknowledge that other people gave us many gifts to help us achieve the goodness in our lives．37．Of course，there are various important reasons．Here are some of them．Gratitude allows us to celebrate the present．38．We notice the positives more，and that enlarge the pleasures you get from life．Instead of adapting to goodness，we celebrate goodness．Gratitude blocks negative feelings．You cannot feel envious and grateful at the same time．39．If you’re grateful，you can’t hate someone for having something that you don’t．Those are very different ways of connecting to the world，and sure enough，research has suggested that people who have high levels of gratitude have low levels of negative feelings．40．That’s because when you’re grateful，you have the sense that someone else has provided for your happiness．You notice a network of relationships of people think it’s worthwhile to help you get to where you are right now．Realizing someone has seen the value in you transforms the way you see yourself．A．They’re contradictory feelings．B．It strengthens positive feelings．C．Gratitude heightens your sense of self-worth．D．Most of the time，it makes you feel confused．E．Gratitude allows us to participate more in life．F．So why gratitude has such effects on people’s lives?G．We recognize the sources of it as being outside of ourselves．第II卷（非选择题）四、短文改错41．假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

AAllow me to introduce you to Terry, a window salesman from England. If I could take you back about 20 years, you’d know Terry as a complete green hand, who was wet behind the ears in just about everything he attempted. A person couldn’t sell false teeth to his own Granny, let alone he could compete with the other salespeople in the industry. You know, the kind who could sell snow to Eskimos.Terry’s boss decided to send him out on a practical field trip on his first day. So off he went, but he was extremely nervous. With his hands and his knees shaking, he approached the front door and knocked at is. And old woman appeared. After dozens of cups of tea and pieces of biscuits, the woman signed a contract and purchased over $7,000 worth of windows.The woman had already talked with 6 excellent salesmen that week, all of whom offered her cheaper ones! That’s right---Terry’s price was the most expensive and he was also the most inexperienced salesman there ever was.So, what happened then? Here comes the secret. The woman said she liked the young lad more than the others. That’s all there was to it. She didn’t care about the extra expense. Even theother salesmen couldn’t persuade her to pay less than this young lad was asking for.The truth is that the young lad left on the woman the first impression that shone brighter than any of the salesman’s talk. First impressions count, not the sales techniques, not the low prices. The actual “personality” the kid honestly gave was all that was required. If you market your own products and services, consider what impression you are giving to others. If you appeal to them, then you’ve already done half of the work. If this means redesigning your presentation, then so be it. If this means going out of your way to be polite, helpful and giving the best possible shopping experience to your customers, the so be it.1. When Terry was offered the job of salesman, he .A. was good at sales techniquesB. was too young to do itC. was believed in by his bossD. knew little about sales skills2. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 suggests that .A. Terry could n’t trade with EskimosB. Terry loved his Granny moreC. Terry was too honest to do the jobD. Terry was afraid to compete3. What made the young lad succeed in selling the window to the old woman?A. Being honest and childish.B. First impression of good personality.C. High quality and expensive window.D. Strange ways of sales.4. The passage is most likely written to .A. new salesmenB. general readersC. window makersD. new graduatesBIt’s hard to predict the weather in the near future. It’s even more difficult to know what the climate of the coming season is like. Now you know the winter of 2011/12 was not warm but a freezing one/ many people in the Northern Hemisphere died of cold. but a Native American tribe was fortunate enough to survive the terrible winter because of what was foretold by a weatherman.One day in early September o 2011 the chief of the Native American tribe was asked by his tribal elders if the winter was going to be cold or mild. The chief asked his medicine man, but the man also had lost touch with the reading signs from the natural world around the Great Lakes.In truth, neither of them had idea about how to predict the coming winter. However, the chief decided to take a modern approach, and rang the National Weather Service in Gaylord Michigan.“Yes, it is going to be a cold winter,” the weatherman told the chief. Consequently, the chief went back to his tribe and told his tribe people to collect plenty of firewood.A fortnight later the chief called the National Weather Service and asked for an update. “Are you still forecasting a cold winter?” he asked.“Yes, very cold,” the weatherman told him.As a result of this brief conversation the chief went back to the tribe people to collect every bit of wood they could find.A month later the chief called the National Weather Service once more and asked about the coming winter. “Yes,” he was told, “it s going to be one of the coldest winters ever.”The weatherman was right! And the Native American tribe went comfortably through the terrifying winter. The chief was thankful and curious. He rang the weatherman again and asked, “How can you be so sure about it tat it was freezing winter?”The weatherman replied, “Because the Native American tribe of the Great Lakes are collecting wood like crazy.”5. The underlined words in Paragraph2 must be a person who .A. only has the ability to cure illnessB. can foretell what will happen in the futureC. governs he whole American tribesD. is a weatherman for the Great Lakes6. The chief decided to take a modern approach, so he turned to .A. his medicine manB. his tribe peopleC. a telephoneD. a weatherman7. The native tribe survived the terrible winter mainly because of .A. lucky coincidenceB. good leadershipC. scientific predictionD. modern technology8. The chief rang the weatherman several times out of .A. angerB. excitementC. curiosityD. doubtCImagine you are standing on the 70th floor of the Empire State Building, staring at the cityscape. Suddenly a man pushes past you, opens the window and announces his intention to jump. You yell out, “Stop! Don’t do it!” the six-foot-five figure turns to you and menacingly (恐吓地) says, “Try to stop me and I’ll take you with me!”“Umm… No problem, sir. have a good trip. any last words?”“Let me tell you my troubles,” he says, “my wife left me, my kids won’t talk to me, I lost my job and my pet turtle died, so why should I go on living?”Suddenly you have a flash of inspiration. “S ir, close your eyes for a minute and imagine that you are blind. No colors, no sights of children playing, no fields of flowers, no sunset. Now imagine that suddenly there’s a miracle. You open your eyes and your vision is restored! Are you going to jump? Or will you stick around for a week to enjoy the sights?”“I’ll stay for a week.”“But what happened to all the troubles?”“I guess they’re not so bad. I can see!”“Well, your eyesight is worth at least five million dollars. You’re a rich man!”If you really appreciate your eyesight, the other pains are insignificant. But if you take it all for granted, then nothing in life will ever truly give you joy. Actually, there are misconceptions on the road to happiness.misconception1: “Once I know the tools for being happy, then it will work like magic.”Don’t expect the results to come automatically. It is possible to understand how to achieve happiness, yet not put it into practice. In fact, many people actually prefer to be comfortable and unhappy, rather than bear the discomfort of changing their habits. Just as learning any new skill requires effort, you have to be willing to invest serious effort to achieve real happiness.Misconception 2: “if I become content and satisfied with what I have, I’ll lose my motivation to achieve more.”Now ask someone who is depressed, “Let’s go fishing!”“I’m tired. Maybe tomorrow. And anyway, I might rain…”in reality, happy people are energetic and ambitious. There’s never enough time to do everything they want to do.Misconception 3:A beautiful Sunday afternoon, you’re in the park having a picnic with friends. Suddenly one person complains: “who forgot the forks? It’s too hot for volleyball. I want to go home already.”When our mood negatively affects others, we recognize we have duty to be happy and not spoil the fun. But what about when we’re at home with our family? Or when we go into the office on Monday morning? like an open pit in the middle of the road, a sourpuss(牢骚满腹的人) is a public danger. Being happy is part of being considerate to the people around us.9. The story is placed at the beginning of the passage in order to .A. tell a skill of persuasionB. warn the danger of standing on a tall buildingC. emphasize the importance of eyesightD. introduce the theme of the passage10. What can be inferred from the underlined sentences?A. Everything has a price.B. We should value what we have.C. Every dog has its day.D. Eyesight is more important.11. What is right about happy？A. Happy is a gift.B. Happy is limited.C. Happy is contagious (会传染的).D. Happy is no more than a skill.12. The best subtitle of Misconception 3 is .A. If unhappy occurs at home, I needn’t pretend to be happyB. If I can’t make others unhappy, I won’t be happy.C. If someone is happy, then others around them are happy.D. If I want to be depressed, that’s my own prerogative.DBuckingham Palace has a history that dates back over 500 years and has changed hands on numerous occasions, however, much of the building that remains standing today is from the original structure built in the early 1700's.In the beginning Buckingham Palace was originally known as Buckingham House. However, in 1762 George III liked the house so much that he bought it for 28,000 and renamed it "The Queen's House". The reason for this was down to the fact that he bought the house to give to his wife Charlotte. Shortly after he did this, work soon began in order to remodel the house with the help of Sir William Chambers. This trend then continued with the accession of George IV in 1820 when he decided to reconstruct the house but he still used it for the same purpose that his father did.One of the biggest physical changes to the house occurred several years later when the king had a change of mind. It was in 1826 that King George IV set about transforming the house into what it is known today, Buckingham Palace. He did this with the help of an architect known as John Nash.The work that Nash carried out involved doubling the size of the main block through adding a new suite of rooms on the garden side facing the west. He then faced this with mellow Bath stone, which reflected the French neo-classical influence favored by George IV. Many ofthe rooms that Nash added still remain pretty much unchanged today.The palace as it stands today acts as not only the London residence of Her Majesty the Queen but also the administrative headquarters of the Royal Household. It is in fact one of the few working royal palaces that remain in the world today. The state rooms are extensively used by the Queen as well as members of the royal family as a way of receiving and entertaining guests on state, ceremonial and official occasions.13. George IV reconstructed Buckingham House probably to .A. please his own wifeB. satisfy his sonC. sell at a good priceD. honor his old father14. One of the biggest changes to Buckingham Palace took place in .A. 1762B. 1820C. 1826D. 182915. The last paragraph mainly tells usA. how important Buckingham Palace is todayB. what Buckingham Palace is like todayC. some information of royal palaces in the worldD. how Buckingham Palace is used today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。
