【原文】
Play is the principal business of children, and in recent years more and more research have shown the great importance of play in the development of a human being. From earliest infancy, every child needs an opportunity and the right materials for play, and the main tools of play are toys. Their main function is to suggest, encourage and assist play. Therefore, it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child’s development. Some research in recent years on infant development has shown the standard a child is likely to reach is largely determined in the first three years of his life. So a baby’s ability to profit from the right play materials should not be underestimated. A baby who is encouraged and stimulated, talked to and shown things and played with, has the best chance of growing up successfully. The next stage, from three to five years old, curiosity knows no bounds. Every type of suitable toy should be made available to the child, for trying out, experimenting and learning, for discovering his own particular ability. By the third stage of play development-- from five to seven or eight years the child is at school. But for a few more years play is still the best way of learning, at home or at school. It is easier now to see which type of toys the child most enjoys.
Now listen again, please.
1. What is the main function of toys?
2. Why is it said the first three years of one’s life is important?
3. What does the passage mainly discuss?

B.The difference in performance between the two groups was insignificant.
C.Non-daydreamers were more confused on their tasks than daydreamers.
D.Daydreamers did better than non-daydreamers in task performance.
【答案】14.B 15.A 16.D
【原文】
In 2014, one in sixteen Americans visited the hospital emergency room for home injuries. One of the main causes of these accidents? A wandering mind!??By one estimate, people daydream through nearly half of their waking hours.
Psychologists have recently focused on the tendency to think about something other than the task one is doing. For one experiment, researchers developed an app to analyze the relationship between daydreaming and happiness. They found that the average person’s mind wandered most frequently about 65% of the time during personal activities, such as brushing their teeth and combing their hair. Respondents’ minds tended to wander more when they felt upset rather than happy. They were more likely to wander toward pleasant topics than unpleasant ones.
How do daydreams affect daydreamers? A wandering mind leaves us vulnerable when driving. In one study, researchers interviewed 955 people involved in traffic accidents, the majority of them reported having daydream just before the accident.
Yet other research suggests that daydreaming has benefits. Researchers have found that it gives us a chance to think about our goals and it also seems to increase creativity. In one experiment, 145 undergraduates completed four “unusual uses” tasks, each requiring them to list as many uses as possible for an everyday object. After the first pair of tasks was completed, one group of participants was assigned an undemanding activity intended to cause their minds to wander. When all the participants proceeded to the second pair of tasks, the daydreamers performed 40% better than the others.
Now listen again, please.
1.What does the passage say about people’s mind?
2.For what purpose did the researchers develop the new app?
3.What was the finding of the experiment with 145 undergraduates?
Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.

D.They were quite optimistic about their future.
18.
A.Get ready for ecological changes.
B.Adapt to the new environment.
C.Learn to use new technology.
D.Explore ways to stay young.
19.
A.When all women go out to work.

C.When a world government is set up.
D.When all people become wealthier.
20.
A.Eliminate poverty and injustice.
B.Migrate to other planets.
C.Control the environment.
D.Find inexhaustible resources.
【答案】17.A 18.C 19.D 20.C
【原文】W: Hi, Professor Smith. I hear you’ve written a book titled Visions.
M: Yes. It explains how science will revolutionize in the future.
W: Could I ask you some questions concerning the book?
M: Sure.
W: Are you optimistic about the future?
M: Generally, yeah. If we go back to the year of 1900, most Americans didn’t live beyond the age of 50. Since then, we’ve had improvements in health care and technology.
W: Are we ready for the changes that will come?
M: Changes are already happening. The future is here now. We have DNA, microchips and the Internet. Some people’s reaction is to say, “We are too old; we don’t understand new technology.” My reaction is to say, “We must educate people to use new technology now.”
W: Is world population going to be a big problem?
M: Yes, and no. I think that world population will stop increasing as we all get richer. If you are a part of the middle class, you don’t want or need 12 children.
W: Will there be a world government?
M: Very probably. We will have to manage the world and its resources on a global level because countries alone are too small.
W: Will we have control of everything?
M: I think we’ll learn to control the weather, volcanoes and earthquakes. Illness won’t exist. We’ll grow new livers, kidneys, hearts, and lungs like spare parts of a car. People will live to about 130 or 150. For 2000 years, we have tried to understand our environment. Now we’ll begin to control it.
Questions:
1. What does Professor Smith say about most Americans around the year of 1900?
2. What does Professor Smith advise we do?
3. When will the world population stop growing according to Professor Smith?
4. What does Professor Smith think human beings will be able to do?

【分析】本文是說(shuō)明文,介紹了人們對(duì)電子產(chǎn)品和科技的過(guò)分依賴(lài),并探討了如何修正這種病態(tài)的關(guān)系。
21.考查狀語(yǔ)從句的省略。句意:當(dāng)他們沉迷于電子設(shè)備時(shí),它們遠(yuǎn)離了現(xiàn)實(shí)世界。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,前部分是省略后的狀語(yǔ)從句,空格處應(yīng)填入連詞;根據(jù)“ they are away from physical reality.”可知此處表示“當(dāng)……的時(shí)候”,本劇運(yùn)用了狀語(yǔ)從句的省略,完整形式為:When they are connected electronically,相當(dāng)于省略了they are(主從句主語(yǔ)一致)。故填When。
22.考查時(shí)態(tài)語(yǔ)態(tài)。句意:人們已經(jīng)受到影響,對(duì)科技上了癮。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知設(shè)空處為句中謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞;主語(yǔ)People與謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞influence之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系,且“影響”已經(jīng)發(fā)生造成后果,所以用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)態(tài)的被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài);又因集體名詞People作主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)。故填have been influenced。
23.考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。句意:一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示,“上癮”是人們最常用來(lái)描述他們與iPad和與之類(lèi)似設(shè)備的關(guān)系的詞。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知設(shè)空處為非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞,又因句中有固定搭配be used to do…(被用來(lái)做……),所以應(yīng)用不定式作目的狀語(yǔ)。故填to describe。
24.考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。句意:一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn),相比睡眠、香煙和酒精,人們更難抵制社交媒體的誘惑。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知設(shè)空處為賓語(yǔ)從句中非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞,又因句中有固定搭配have a good/hard/difficult time (in) doing…所以應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在分詞作賓語(yǔ)。故填resisting。
25.考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。句意:我看到人們被困在一種與耗時(shí)的科技相關(guān)的病態(tài)關(guān)系中。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知設(shè)空處為非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞,people與trap之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系,表示“人們被困”,所以應(yīng)該使用過(guò)去分詞作賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)。故填trapped。
26.考查定語(yǔ)從句。句意:我看到人們被困在一種與耗時(shí)的科技相關(guān)的病態(tài)關(guān)系中,在這種關(guān)系中人為技術(shù)服務(wù),而不是技術(shù)為人服務(wù)。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,空格處為非限定性定語(yǔ)從句,修飾先行詞relationship,先行詞relationship是“模糊地點(diǎn)”,在定語(yǔ)從句中作地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ),表示“在這種關(guān)系中”,所以用關(guān)系副詞引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句。故填where。
27.考查介詞。句意:我指的是,因?yàn)闊o(wú)節(jié)制地使用各種消耗時(shí)間和金錢(qián)的設(shè)備而帶來(lái)的個(gè)人自由和獨(dú)立的喪失。分析句意可知,loss of personal freedom and independence和uncontrolled consumption of many kinds of devices之間有因果關(guān)系,且空格后是名詞短語(yǔ),因此用介詞連接,介詞with表示“因?yàn)?,由于”。故填with。
28.考查代詞。句意:我們需要問(wèn)問(wèn)自己,我們是否有機(jī)會(huì)打破關(guān)于技術(shù)使用的錯(cuò)誤信念。根據(jù)下文“if we are to have any chance…”可知,這是我們需要自己?jiǎn)栕约旱膯?wèn)題,應(yīng)用反身代詞。故填ourselves。
29.考查連詞。句意:但是,是時(shí)候發(fā)現(xiàn)今天技術(shù)的過(guò)度使用了。上文“too much of a good thing is wonderful. ”(好東西過(guò)猶不及也奇妙)與下文“it's time to discover today's overused technology.”對(duì)過(guò)度使用技術(shù)的質(zhì)疑之間有轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。故填But。
30.考查賓語(yǔ)從句。句意:為了打破與電子設(shè)備間的這種關(guān)系,人們必須想想,沒(méi)有過(guò)度使用的科技,我們?cè)?jīng)的生活會(huì)是多么美好。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知設(shè)空處謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞consider后的賓語(yǔ)從句,結(jié)合句意可知應(yīng)用how引導(dǎo),表示“曾經(jīng)的生活會(huì)是多么美好”。故填how。

III. Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B.C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context
The constant working engine that drives the majority of human action is, undoubtedly, the fragrant dream of individualism. And while the presence of its scent is??___41___ throughout the world entirely, its value is worshipped (敬奉) to such an extent in a land no other than that of America.
As the framework of its history, America holds individuality as the ever-popular green light, the essence of which becomes the symbol of hope for, well, almost everything. In fact, in America’s current social status, individuality has become something of a birthright, and a??___42___ applied upon the face of the media, where it was ___43___ valued as the American dream. There is no denying the popularity of this idol in American society, and little hope for??___44___ it.
However,??___45___ most pride themselves in their individualistic state, perhaps humans, when stripped (剝) to their core (核心), are everything but.
It is no new discovery that people are the sum of their experiences. The overwhelming majority of human experiences involve other humans, along with the??___46___and relationships between them. It is a??___47___ occurrence when a life is built upon events without this stimulus. Indeed, interaction is the core of experience. Therefore, in order that humans are the sum of their experiences, they must be the sum of the people that they meet, just as well.
As an Americanized teen, I found the discovery that not only my self-entitled individualism was____48____, but that I, as a being, was a product, increasingly unsettling to accept. Questions __49__ me such as “If I am bits and pieces of everyone I have met — my family, my teachers, all of my friends, and even strangers — then what is left that is just me? What part of me is just me? How much of myself is the combining of different parts of different people? Is such a??___50___ between myself and others even possible?”
Such are inquiries that will continue to be thought about, as I have come to accept that they will remain a??___51___. Therefore, with the allowance of these questions, the response must be a _52_ in the definition of “oneself”. The previously mentioned questions no longer concern me, as I have put a stop to the idea that the “real” me is some lost isolated island on top of an ocean of influence.
I realized that my personality cannot depend on a(n) ___53___ between influence and individualism, as such is a line that cannot be distinct. ___54___, I must be a person whose calmness is a beautifully hazy mixture, and a steady question. Thus, it is the commonly unnoticed durable mystery that is the frustration of those who can??___55___ the lie of individualism. Hopefully, they will come into acceptance.

Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Once again DC Comics and Warner Bros. have divided fans and critics over their latest superhero film.
There had been worrying news about Justice League in the months before its release, with a lot of reshoots of scenes, a new director being brought in to finish the film after original director Zack Snyder’s tragic loss of his daughter and, of course, a lot of talk about Ben Affleck’s future in the role of Batman.
Some people are saying that Justice League is another big disappointment, that it could have been incredible and instead fails to really entertain. Others say that Warner Bros. have finally got it right and that the future for the League looks bright.
My opinion lies somewhere in the middle. The film was by no means a disappointment: it was exciting, funny and a lot of fun to watch. There’s something special about watching the heroes from your childhood brought to life on the big screen and maybe that is affecting my opinion.
However, I will say that a lot of work needs to be done if the producer wants to make a great success. Although the film was good, it was obvious which scenes had been reshot and how the characters had been changed. I also have to mention the several scenes in which the special effects were very badly done; these are the kinds of problems that you don’t expect to see in a film with such a big budget.
Another point to add is that it is good to see the producer making Superman slightly a brighter character and adding some jokes to the plot to keep things fun. But the producer must be careful not to make the mistake that another film producer—here, not mentioning the name—is coming very close to doing: turning all of the films into bright and colorful shows and losing a lot of seriously good stories.
In the end, Justice League is not a perfect film but it is definitely not a terrible one. A lot of work is still to be done but I hope that DC does not completely lose its darker side.
56.Before the release of Justice League, many people showed their ______.
A.pity for the director, Zack Snyder B.concern about the film’s quality
C.higher expectation of the new director D.support for the actor, Ben Affleck
57.According to the author, what’s special about Justice League?
A.It advocates social justice. B.It brings lots of fun to the audience.
C.It has some brave heroes. D.It brings back childhood memories.
58.In Paragraph 5 the author mainly wants to express his ______.
A.views on the film’s weakness B.a(chǎn)dvice to the film’s director
C.love for the film D.expectation of the film’s sequels
59.The author mentioned another film producer to ______.
A.stress the importance of fun in a film
B.show Justice League’s lack of a serious plot
C.serve as a warning to the producer of Justice League
D.set an example for the producer of Justice League
【答案】56.B 57.D 58.A 59.C
【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,介紹了作者對(duì)《正義聯(lián)盟》這部電影的看法。
56.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“There had been worrying news about Justice League in the months before its release, with a lot of reshoots of scenes, a new director being brought in to finish the film after original director Zack Snyder’s tragic loss of his daughter”可知,在《正義聯(lián)盟》上映前的幾個(gè)月里,一直有令人擔(dān)憂的消息,原導(dǎo)演扎克·斯奈德因女兒離世而無(wú)法繼續(xù)拍攝,所以一位新導(dǎo)演來(lái)繼續(xù)拍攝,很多場(chǎng)景都進(jìn)行了重新拍攝,由此可知,在上映之前,很多人都很擔(dān)心《正義聯(lián)盟》的質(zhì)量,故B項(xiàng)正確。
57.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中的“There’s something special about watching the heroes from your childhood brought to life on the big screen and maybe that is affecting my opinion.”可知,作者說(shuō)在大銀幕上看到童年時(shí)代的英雄們變得栩栩如生的感覺(jué)很特別,由此可知,作者認(rèn)為《正義聯(lián)盟》的特別之處是它能喚起童年的回憶,故D項(xiàng)正確。
58.主旨大意題。根據(jù)第五段內(nèi)容可知,本段主要介紹了《正義聯(lián)盟》這部電影存在很多不足,比如重拍的場(chǎng)景很明顯、角色的改變也有缺陷以及幾個(gè)場(chǎng)景的特效很糟糕,同時(shí)指出如果制片人想取得巨大成功,還需要做很多工作,由此可知,作者在這一段主要表達(dá)他對(duì)這部電影的不足之處的看法,故A項(xiàng)正確。
59.推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“But the producer must be careful not to make the mistake that another film producer—here, not mentioning the name—is coming very close to doing: turning all of the films into bright and colorful shows and losing a lot of seriously good stories.”可知,但制片人必須小心,不要和另一個(gè)制片人一樣犯這種錯(cuò)誤:把所有的電影都變成亮麗多彩的表演,而失去很多非常好的故事,由此可知作者提到另一個(gè)制片人就是提醒《正義聯(lián)盟》的制片人不要犯同樣的錯(cuò)誤,故C項(xiàng)正確。
(B)

( C )
The surface of Venus(金星)has never seemed very hospitable. Temperatures change around 470°C(900°F), the result of a runway greenhouse effect,and the pressure of its atmosphere, thick with carbon dioxide and sulfuric acid, is some 90 times that of Earth’s. Lead(鉛)would flow like water on Venus, and water cannot have existed in liquid form for perhaps a billion years.
Now NASA’S Magellan spacecraft seems to have found one more horror in the nasty landscape: active volcanoes. Last week the space agency released the first detailed map of Venus and the most dramatic images ever made of its surface. The picture offer the best evidence to date that a planet once assumed dead is actually a lively pot of geological change.
The most amazing image is of Venus’s second tallest mountain, Maat Mons, which rises 8km(5 miles) . Most of the planet’s many peaks, including 9.5-km-(6-mile-) high Maxwell Montes, look bright in the radar pictures Magellan takes from its orbit above the permanent could cover. That means they are strong reflectors of radar waves. But Maat Mons is dark; like the Stealth bomber, it absorbs much of the radar falling on it.
This interesting fact, say project scientists, is a strong hint that the mountains has recently been covered with lava(^§S). Rock that sits on the surface of mountaintops appears to weather quickly in the hot,chemically reactive atmosphere, creating a soil that is rich in iron sulfide(硫 化鐵)? It is this mineral, the scientists believe, that can easily be seen on radar. If Maat Mons doesn’t have any, it has probably been resurfaced, perhaps within the past few years.
Such resurfacing has undoubtedly taken place in Venus lowlands: earlier images of the planet showed vast areas that are remarkably free of craters(火山坑).That would be easy to explain on a Planet like Earth, where cratering from meteor strikes is erased by steady erosion. But while there is some evidence of wind erosion on Venus, the best explanation for the lack of cratering is periodic lava flow. Magellan has found direct evidence of such flows, including domelike upwellings and hardened streamed of rock trailing down the sides of Venusian peaks. There are also signs of other geologic activities, including dramatic faulting and several distinct incidents of mountain building. But the evidence can’t indicate whether they really occurred millions of years ago. The case for active Venusian volcanoes is not yet proved, but Magellan, which is now well into its second complete survey of the planet’s surface, may eventually settle the issue.
63.Which of the following can not be possibly found on Venus now?
A.Carbon dioxide B.Sulfuric acid
C.Liquid water D.Active volcanoes
64.The scientists believe that????shows up easily on radar.
A.geological change B.iron sulfide
C.mountain mineral D.lava flow
65.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The resurfacing has changed the images of the vast areas in Venus lowlands.
B.The wind erosion on Venus is caused by periodic lava flows
C.Streams of rock trailing down the side of Venusian peaks can be seen on Earth
D.Other geologic activities have caused dramatic and unbelievable climate phenomena.
66.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.NASA’S Magallan spacecraft fails to stand the environment of Venus.
B.There is clear and confirmed evidence for the active Venusian volcanoes on Venus.
C.Some evidence of periodic lava flows has been found by NASA astronauts.
D.Magellan will conduct a follow-up complete survey of the Venus,surface.
【答案】63.C 64.B 65.A 66.D
【分析】這是一篇說(shuō)明文。介紹了金星地表的結(jié)構(gòu)以及這種結(jié)構(gòu)產(chǎn)生的原因。
63.推理判斷題題。由第一段“ water cannot have existed in liquid form for perhaps a billion years.”可知,在金星上水不可能以液體的形式存在了十億年。所以判斷出液態(tài)水現(xiàn)在不可能在金星上被發(fā)現(xiàn)。故C選項(xiàng)正確。
64.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第四段“... creating a soil that is rich in iron sulfide(硫化鐵). It is this mineral, the scientists believe, that can easily be seen on radar”可知,坐落在山頂表面的巖石在高溫、化學(xué)反應(yīng)性大氣中迅速風(fēng)化,形成了富含硫化鐵的土壤??茖W(xué)家們相信,正是這種礦物,在雷達(dá)上很容易看到。所以,科學(xué)家認(rèn)為硫化鐵很容易出現(xiàn)在雷達(dá)上。故B選項(xiàng)正確。
65.推理判斷題。由最后一段“Such resurfacing has undoubtedly taken place in Venus lowlands: earlier images of the planet showed vast areas that are remarkably free of craters(火山坑) …h(huán)e best explanation for the lack of cratering is periodic lava flow. ”可知,毫無(wú)疑問(wèn),金星低地已經(jīng)出現(xiàn)了這樣的表面修復(fù):早期的地球圖像顯示,大片地區(qū)沒(méi)有隕石坑?!菦](méi)有隕石坑的最好解釋是周期性的熔巖流。通過(guò)對(duì)表面修復(fù)的原因的解釋?zhuān)梢耘袛喑霰砻嫘迯?fù)改變了金星低地廣大地區(qū)的地貌。故A選項(xiàng)正確。
66.推理判斷題。由最后一段“The case for active Venusian volcanoes is not yet proved, but Magellan, which is now well into its second complete survey of the planet’s surface, may eventually settle the issue.”可知,金星活躍火山的情況還沒(méi)有得到證實(shí),但是 Magellan可能最終解決這個(gè)問(wèn)題,Magellan進(jìn)入了對(duì)金星表面的第二次全面調(diào)查。所以能判斷出,Magellan將對(duì)金星表面進(jìn)行后續(xù)的全面調(diào)查。故D選項(xiàng)正確。
Section C
Directions: Complete the following passage by using the sentences in the box Each sentence can only be used once. Note that there are two sentences more than you need.
Discovering the Lost City
Sixty miles south, in Cusco, Hiram Bingham gazed thoughtfully at the old Incan stone wall. He had come to this place in search of Vilcapampa, the lost city of the Inca. But right here was the most beautiful stonework he had ever seen-huge stones cut so perfectly that not even a razor blade could be slipped between them.
The Inca had no iron tools to carve them, no wheel or animals to move them. The wall had endured time and earthquakes.___67___
It was a mystery.
He walked through the cobbled streets of the old capital, Cusco. The Spanish had come to this city, conquered the Inca, taken their gold, and built churches over their temples. Suddenly, he stopped. Before him was the famous Temple of the Sun. He placed his hands on the sun-warmed stones so beautifully carved, as if they had grown together.
___68___Would it hold gold and riches like the Spanish had found in Cusco? More than ever he was determined to find that city.
The next day Bingham began his search. He would look for ruins-that might be the key. He and his party, accompanied by the military man Sergeant Carrasco, left for the holy valley of the Urubamba River. They came to the sleepy old village in the valley, long ago an important city.
“Are there any ruins nearby?” Bingham asked. “Do you know of the lost city of Vilcapampa?” No one knew of it. Traveling north, the adventurers came upon a remote and wild canyon. In the distance were snowcapped mountains over three miles high.___69___Bingham’s determination to find the lost city grew with each turn of the increasingly wild path.
Far below in the valley, Bingham’s party camped on a sandy beach alongside the thundering rapids of the Urubamba River. Days had gone by. No one knew of any ruins.
___70___
This time, through the interpreter, the farmer said, “Yes. There are very good ruins on top of the mountain called Machu Picchu.” The farmer pointed straight up.
“Can you take us there?” Bingham asked.
...
A.Hidden in the mountains, the lost city would be built of stones like these.
B.What could he be thinking!
C.But now the adventurers aroused the curiosity of a local farmer named Arteaga.
D.How had they built them!
E.Cliffs rose thousands of feet above the roaring rapids of the Urubamba River.
F.Suddenly, the clouds drifted away and there it was.
【答案】67.D 68.A 69.E 70.C
【分析】這是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述了Hiram Bingham探尋失落的印加城市的故事,記敘了一路上的所見(jiàn)所聞所感。
67.根據(jù)上文“The Inca had no iron tools to carve them, no wheel or animals to move them. The wall had endured time and earthquakes.(印加人沒(méi)有鐵制的工具來(lái)雕刻它們,也沒(méi)有輪子或動(dòng)物來(lái)移動(dòng)它們。這堵墻經(jīng)受了時(shí)間和地震的考驗(yàn))”以及下一段“It was a mystery.(這是一個(gè)謎)”可知,上文提到了印加人雕刻的困難,后文則說(shuō)是一個(gè)謎,可推測(cè)本句是在描述他們?nèi)绾谓ㄔ爝@些石墻的。故D選項(xiàng)“他們到底是如何建造它們的!”符合語(yǔ)境,故選D。
68.根據(jù)上一段“He walked through the cobbled streets of the old capital, Cusco. The Spanish had come to this city, conquered the Inca, taken their gold, and built churches over their temples. Suddenly, he stopped. Before him was the famous Temple of the Sun. He placed his hands on the sun-warmed stones so beautifully carved, as if they had grown together.(他走在古首都庫(kù)斯科的鵝卵石街道上。西班牙人來(lái)到這座城市,征服了印加人,掠奪了他們的黃金,在他們的廟宇上建造了教堂。突然,他停了下來(lái)。在他面前的是著名的太陽(yáng)神廟。他把手放在那些被陽(yáng)光曬得暖暖的石頭上,它們雕刻得如此美麗,仿佛它們是生長(zhǎng)在一起的)”以及后文“Would it hold gold and riches like the Spanish had found in Cusco? More than ever he was determined to find that city.(它會(huì)像西班牙人在庫(kù)斯科發(fā)現(xiàn)的那樣藏有黃金和財(cái)富嗎?他比以往任何時(shí)候都更下定決心要找到那座城市)”可知,上文提到了撫摸那些被太陽(yáng)曬得暖暖的石頭,后文則是在內(nèi)心設(shè)想一些關(guān)于石頭的問(wèn)題,可推測(cè)本句是在說(shuō)明這些石頭的情況,A選項(xiàng)中stones like these對(duì)應(yīng)上文中the sun-warmed stones。故A選項(xiàng)“隱藏在山里的失落之城就是用這樣的石頭建造的”符合語(yǔ)境,故選A。
69.根據(jù)上文““Are there any ruins nearby?” Bingham asked. “Do you know of the lost city of Vilcapampa?” No one knew of it. Traveling north, the adventurers came upon a remote and wild canyon. In the distance were snowcapped mountains over three miles high.(“附近有廢墟嗎?” Bingham問(wèn)道。“你知道失落的Vilcapampa城嗎?”沒(méi)有人知道這件事。向北旅行時(shí),探險(xiǎn)者們來(lái)到了一個(gè)遙遠(yuǎn)而荒涼的峽谷。遠(yuǎn)處是三英里多高的雪山)”以及后文“Far below in the valley, Bingham’s party camped on a sandy beach alongside the thundering rapids of the Urubamba River.(在山谷深處,Bingham一行人在Urubamba河激流邊的沙灘上扎營(yíng))”可知,上文提到了探險(xiǎn)者們來(lái)到了峽谷,看到了雪山,且后文提到了Urubamba河,可推測(cè)本句承接上文繼續(xù)說(shuō)明他們的所見(jiàn)所聞,故E選項(xiàng)“懸崖聳立在數(shù)千英尺高的Urubamba河咆哮的急流之上”符合語(yǔ)境,故選E。
70.根據(jù)后文“This time, through the interpreter, the farmer said, “Yes. There are very good ruins on top of the mountain called Machu Picchu.” The farmer pointed straight up.(這一次,農(nóng)夫通過(guò)翻譯說(shuō):“是的。在馬丘比丘山頂有很好的遺址?!鞭r(nóng)夫直接指著上面)”可知,后文提到了一位農(nóng)民在給他們指路,C選項(xiàng)中a local farmer對(duì)應(yīng)后文中the farmer。故C選項(xiàng)“但是現(xiàn)在這些冒險(xiǎn)家引起了當(dāng)?shù)匾粋€(gè)叫阿蒂亞加的農(nóng)民的好奇心”符合語(yǔ)境,故選C。
IV. Summary Writing
71. Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point( s)of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
These days, its not unusual to see middle-aged men collecting Star Wars action figures,office workers wearing Hello Kitty accessories, or celebrities like David Beckham playing with Lego bricks, it's becoming more and more common to see adult taking an interest in toys, comic books and the activities that are traditionally associated with children. This phenomenon has given rise to a new word: kidult.
What lies behind the phenomenon? One is about adults' nostalgia(懷舊)for the carefree days of childhood, and this is especially true with today's fast-paced, stressful lifestyles. Another is about a societal change in recent decades where people are starting families later. As a result, they have more time and money to spend on themselves. Some adults could only window-shop for their dream toys when they were kids, but now they can afford that radio-controlled car or high-priced doll they have always wanted.
Society traditionally disapproves of adults who refuse to put aside childhood interests, viewing the refusal as a sign of social immaturity (不成熟) and irresponsibility. Those who agree with this view sometimes claim that kidults are suffering from the pop-psychology concept known as Peter Pan Syndrome, an anomaly(異常)that people remain emotionally at the level of teenagers.
From the standpoint of kidults, though, this phenomenon is seen as nothing but harmless fun. Kidults insist that having youthful interests keeps them young, happy and creative, and their refusal to conform to society's acccptable tastes shows independent thinking. Besides, they argue that being part of the social trend of delayed adulthood is not purely a personal choice. The real causes include expensive housing, increased educational requirements for employment and poor work opportunities.

【答案】Kidults refer to adults who take up childhood interests. The growing phenomenon can be explained by their desire to recapture childhood pleasures and their ability to afford them because of delayed marriage. Though traditionally considered immature and irresponsible, kidults believe this harmless behavior, which benefits the individuals and shows their independent thinking, is due largely to social factors.
【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章介紹說(shuō),童心未泯的成人指的是那些和童年時(shí)一樣有興趣的成年人。這種日益增長(zhǎng)的現(xiàn)象可以解釋為,他們渴望重獲童年的快樂(lè),而由于推遲結(jié)婚,這使他們有能力負(fù)擔(dān)得起自己想要的玩具。雖然傳統(tǒng)上被認(rèn)為是不成熟和不負(fù)責(zé)任的,但童心未泯的成人認(rèn)為這種無(wú)害的行為,有利于個(gè)人和顯示他們的獨(dú)立思考,這種現(xiàn)象很大程度上是由社會(huì)因素引起的。

Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets
72.我們從來(lái)沒(méi)有像現(xiàn)在這么渴望去學(xué)校上課!(Never)(漢譯英)
【答案】Never before have we been so eager/keen to go to school as we are now.
【詳解】考查時(shí)態(tài)和部分倒裝。根據(jù)所給漢語(yǔ)可知,本句描述的是過(guò)去的動(dòng)作或狀態(tài)對(duì)現(xiàn)在造成的影響,應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)。表示“我們從來(lái)沒(méi)有”應(yīng)用Never before have we been,此處由于否定詞never置于句首,句子發(fā)生部分倒裝;表示“像現(xiàn)在這么渴望去學(xué)校上課”應(yīng)用so eager /keen to go to school as we are now,其中be eager/keen to do為固定短語(yǔ)搭配,表示“渴望做”,so......as......為固定句型,表示同級(jí)比較,表示“像……一樣”。故翻譯為Never before have we been so eager/keen to go to school as we are now.
73.既然只能宅在家里,何不做點(diǎn)自己喜歡做但平時(shí)又沒(méi)時(shí)間做的事情呢?(Why not)(漢譯英)
【答案】Why not do something you love but don’t have time to do since you can only stay at home?
【詳解】考查固定搭配、定語(yǔ)從句和狀語(yǔ)從句。分析句子可知, 本句描述的是一般事實(shí),應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。表示主句“何不做點(diǎn)自己喜歡做但平時(shí)又沒(méi)時(shí)間做的事情呢”應(yīng)用Why not do something you love but don’t have time to do表示,其中why not do為固定搭配,表示“為什么不做”,且you love but don’t have time to do為省略了關(guān)系代詞that的限制性定語(yǔ)從句,that代替先行詞something在從句中充當(dāng)賓語(yǔ),可以省略;表示狀語(yǔ)“既然只能宅在家里”應(yīng)用since you can only stay at home,其中since引導(dǎo)的是讓步狀語(yǔ)從句。故翻譯為Why not do something you love but don’t have time to do since you can only stay at home?
74.在歐洲許多作為理想社交場(chǎng)所的咖啡店不得不關(guān)門(mén)謝客來(lái)應(yīng)對(duì)這場(chǎng)公共衛(wèi)生危機(jī)。(serve)(漢譯英)
【答案】In Europe many coffee houses which serve as ideal places for social interaction have to close their stores to respond to the public health crisis.
【詳解】考查時(shí)態(tài)、定語(yǔ)從句和不定式。分析句子可知,本句描述的是一般事實(shí),應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。表示地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ)“在歐洲”應(yīng)用In Europe;表示“許多作為理想社交場(chǎng)所的咖啡店不得不關(guān)門(mén)謝客”應(yīng)用many coffee houses which serve as ideal places for social interaction have to close their stores,其中關(guān)系代詞which引導(dǎo)的是限制性定語(yǔ)從句,代替先行詞coffee houses在從句中充當(dāng)主語(yǔ),另外serve as為固定搭配,表示“充當(dāng),擔(dān)任”;表示“來(lái)應(yīng)對(duì)這場(chǎng)公共衛(wèi)生危機(jī)”應(yīng)用to respond to the public health crisis,這里是不定式短語(yǔ)用作目的狀語(yǔ)。故翻譯為In Europe many coffee houses which serve as ideal places for social interaction have to close their stores to respond to the public health crisis.
75.事實(shí)證明當(dāng)我們的國(guó)家在面臨困難時(shí),每個(gè)中國(guó)人,不管在國(guó)內(nèi)還是國(guó)外,都愿意為自己的祖國(guó)做出貢獻(xiàn)。(turn out) (漢譯英)
【答案】It turns out that when our country is facing difficulties, every Chinese, both at home and abroad, is willing to contribute to their motherland.
【詳解】考查名詞,動(dòng)詞,連詞,介詞,副詞,代詞,短語(yǔ),固定句型和時(shí)態(tài)。表示“事實(shí)證明”應(yīng)用固定句型It turns out that…,it是形式主語(yǔ),that后面引導(dǎo)真正的主語(yǔ)從句;表示“我們的國(guó)家”應(yīng)用名詞短語(yǔ)our country;表示“面臨”應(yīng)用動(dòng)詞face;表示“困難”應(yīng)用名詞difficulty,用復(fù)數(shù)形式表示泛指;表示“當(dāng)…時(shí)”應(yīng)用when,引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句;表示“每個(gè)中國(guó)人”應(yīng)用名詞短語(yǔ)every Chinese;表示“在國(guó)內(nèi)”應(yīng)用介詞短語(yǔ)at home;表示“國(guó)外”應(yīng)用副詞abroad;表示“不管…還是…”應(yīng)用連詞both …and…;表示“愿意”應(yīng)用動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)be willing to do;表示“自己的祖國(guó)”應(yīng)用名詞短語(yǔ)one’s motherland,這里指代上文提到的人們,所以代詞可以用their;表示“為…做出貢獻(xiàn)”應(yīng)用動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)contribute to。這句話是描述現(xiàn)在的事實(shí),所以謂語(yǔ)用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。表示“在面臨”,說(shuō)明此動(dòng)作正在進(jìn)行,所以用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)。故翻譯為It turns out that when our country is facing difficulties, every Chinese, both at home and abroad, is willing to contribute to their motherland.

But now in high school, I am a member of our Reading Club, where I have found many friends sharing common interest with me.
