Famous adventurer Caroline Paul noticed females show less bravery than men and tend to shy away from adventure-seeking outdoor activities even before puberty (青春期).
But how come women seem to be much less gutsy than men? Paul found the answer to be in the way they are raised. Parents more likely warn girls than boys about accidents and demand carefulness. When playing outdoors, they tend to discourage daughters from taking risks and assist them, as if they were too delicate to do it by themselves, while they encourage their sons’ initiative, letting them push their boundaries on their own. Fearful girls in plays as kids become less daring women in real life as adults.
Paul was different. Her mother made it a point to raise fearless daughters, supporting her thirst for physical challenges. Paul became one of San Francisco’s first 15 female firefighters and completed many seemingly impossible missions like walking up the. Golden Gate Bridge and climbing Denali, the worst-weathered mountain of Alaska.
Paul thought sharing her adventures and inspiration with young women would help them get better. The result, The. Gutsy Girl: Escapades for Your Life of Epic Adventure, is a book for girls, in which she outlines the attempts, successes, and failures of her adventures.
Parents are warned that most of Paul’s adventures aren’t the kind they’d want their girls to try and she says so herself, over and over warning: safety first. What, however, parents should hope their girls try is to dream big and forget fear.
“The pressure girls face at puberty to be pretty and liked is enormous,” Paul said in the book, stressing that a familiarity with outdoor adventures works as a solution to that and makes for real-life training. Plus, not all of Paul’s adventures end in success, which is great: daring means daring to fail, too — something females are particularly scared of.
Paul’s book will convince any female that she, too, is bound to have a life of heroic adventure — whether it’s in the woods or in the boardroom.
4. What does the underlined word “gutsy” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Energetic. B. Optimistic. C. Flexible. D. Courageous.
5. What’s the root cause of girls growing into fearful women according to Paul?
A. How they are brought up. B. Their innocent nature.
C. How their parents behave. D. Social discrimination against them.
6. Which of the following suggestions may Paul give to girls?
A. Try to stay slim and pretty. B. Sign up for a jungle exploration.
C. Put risk-taking before security. D. Act perfectly to keep failure at bay.
7. What’s the purpose of the text?
A. To give tips on how to be ambitious.
B. To recommend a book intended for girls.
C. To assess Paul’s strengths and weaknesses.
D. To present a long-standing cultural phenomenon.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. B
【解析】
【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】這是一篇說(shuō)明文。本篇文章主要介紹了Paul的新書,他在書中闡述了女性表現(xiàn)出的勇氣不如男性的原因,并給了女孩們一些建議。
【4題詳解】
詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第一段“Famous adventurer Caroline Paul noticed females show less bravery than men and tend to shy away from adventure-seeking outdoor activities even before puberty (青春期).(著名冒險(xiǎn)家卡羅琳·保羅注意到,女性表現(xiàn)出的勇氣不如男性,甚至在青春期之前就傾向于回避尋求冒險(xiǎn)的戶外活動(dòng))”可知,女性表現(xiàn)出的勇氣不如男性,甚至在青春期之前就傾向于回避尋求冒險(xiǎn)的戶外活動(dòng)。所以劃線單詞所在的句子在問(wèn)“為什么女性似乎沒有男性那么勇敢呢?”由此可知,劃線單詞的意思為“勇敢的”。故選D。
【5題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第二、三句話“Paul found the answer to be in the way they are raised. Parents more likely warn girls than boys about accidents and demand carefulness. (保羅發(fā)現(xiàn)答案在于他們的成長(zhǎng)方式。父母更可能警告女孩而不是男孩注意事故,并要求他們小心)”可知,根據(jù)Paul的觀點(diǎn),女孩們被養(yǎng)大的方式是她們長(zhǎng)大后更容易恐懼的原因。故選A。
【6題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段第二句話“Paul said in the book, stressing that a familiarity with outdoor adventures works as a solution to that and makes for real-life training.(他強(qiáng)調(diào),熟悉戶外冒險(xiǎn)可以解決這個(gè)問(wèn)題,并有助于現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中的訓(xùn)練)”可知,Paul給女孩們的建議是報(bào)名參見叢林探險(xiǎn)。故選B。
【7題詳解】
目的意圖題。本篇文章主要介紹了Paul的書,他在書中闡述了女性表現(xiàn)出的勇氣不如男性的原因,并給了女孩們一些建議。所以本篇文章的目的是介紹一本為了女孩們而寫的書。故選B。
C
On the farm in a red outbuilding behind Luther Jackson Middle School, Mark Smith picked a piece of cabbage off the plant and took a bite.
“Tastes like victory,” he said, satisfied.
Fifteen engineering students at the school, led by Smith, their engineering teacher, have developed and built the farm using aquaponics technology, combining the methods of hydroponics, growing plants with water rather than soil, and aquaculture, the process of growing and raising fish. The fish waste is used as nutrients for the plants, which filter (過(guò)濾)the water to be reused in the fish tank.
“The innovative project was put forward by the students,” Smith says. “Effectively combining technology with education, it serves to provide a unique learning experience, involving students in core STEM subjects like Math, Biology, Chemistry and Engineering. It’s our hope that it can help boost students’ interest and hands-on skills so that more students will be inspired and choose to take up engineering as their career in the future.”
Not only can students study fish, plants and bacteria(細(xì)菌) interacting in a living ecosystem, but they’re also in charge of every aspect of developing and maintaining the farm, from ordering supplies to harvesting the greens. Camryn, 14, put a test tube into the fish tank and dropped some chemicals to test pH levels and some substances in it. She held the tube up to light, inspecting the color.
Behind her, Yusuf worked along a table with other students to harvest the cabbage, stuffing the leaves into bags to distribute later that afternoon to about 70 families. For him, the ability to give back to his community is the best part of the project.
“We should all be proud of ourselves,” Yusuf said. “We’re making stuff that people are going to be eating.”
8. What’s the technology the students apply to the farm?
A. Robotics and artificial intelligence.
B. Mechanized planting and harvesting.
C. Sustaining good bacteria to grow grain.
D. Integrating fish farming and soilless planting.
9. What does Smith wish to do, through the project?
A. Create more potential engineers. B. Promote students’ survival skills.
C. Enhance the reputation of the school. D. Teach students how to test water quality.
10. What makes Yusuf feel best about the project?
A. Praise from his community. B. His mastery of farming techniques.
C The company of his classmates. D. Their contributions to the neighborhood.
11. Which of the following best describes the school project?
A. Demanding. B. Conventiona C. Student-centered. D. Energy-consuming.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章介紹的是工程老師史密斯的帶領(lǐng)15名學(xué)生,利用水培技術(shù)開發(fā)并建造了新型農(nóng)場(chǎng)。
【8題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中“Fifteen engineering students at the school, led by Smith, their engineering teacher, have developed and built the farm using aquaponics technology, combining the methods of hydroponics, growing plants with water rather than soil, and aquaculture, the process of growing and raising fish. (該校15名工程專業(yè)的學(xué)生在他們的工程老師史密斯的帶領(lǐng)下,利用水培技術(shù)開發(fā)并建造了這個(gè)農(nóng)場(chǎng)。水培技術(shù)將水培法(用水而不是土壤種植植物)和水產(chǎn)養(yǎng)殖(種植和飼養(yǎng)魚類的過(guò)程)相結(jié)合。)”可知,學(xué)生們?cè)谵r(nóng)場(chǎng)中使用的是養(yǎng)魚與無(wú)土種植相結(jié)合的方法建造農(nóng)場(chǎng)。故選D。
【9題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中“ It’s our hope that it can help boost students’ interest and hands-on skills so that more students will be inspired and choose to take up engineering as their career in the future.(我們希望它能幫助提高學(xué)生的興趣和動(dòng)手能力,讓更多的學(xué)生受到啟發(fā),并在未來(lái)選擇工程作為他們的職業(yè)。)”可知,史密斯希望通過(guò)這個(gè)項(xiàng)目培養(yǎng)更多有潛力的工程師。故選A。
【10題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中“For him, the ability to give back to his community is the best part of the project.(對(duì)他來(lái)說(shuō),回饋社區(qū)的能力是這個(gè)項(xiàng)目最好的部分。)”可知,讓Yusuf對(duì)這個(gè)項(xiàng)目感覺最好的是這個(gè)項(xiàng)目能夠回饋社區(qū)。故選D。
【11題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中““The innovative project was put forward by the students,” Smith says. (“這個(gè)創(chuàng)新項(xiàng)目是由學(xué)生們提出的,”史密斯說(shuō)。)”以及第五段中“Not only can students study fish, plants and bacteria(細(xì)菌) interacting in a living ecosystem, but they’re also in charge of every aspect of developing and maintaining the farm, from ordering supplies to harvesting the greens. (學(xué)生們不僅可以研究魚類、植物和細(xì)菌在生態(tài)系統(tǒng)中的相互作用,而且還負(fù)責(zé)農(nóng)場(chǎng)發(fā)展和維護(hù)的各個(gè)方面,從訂購(gòu)物資到收獲蔬菜。)”可知,該項(xiàng)目的提出以及活動(dòng)宗旨都是圍繞學(xué)生而展開的,故該活動(dòng)是以學(xué)生為中心的。故選C。
D
A new study in which researchers explore the human capacity for cooperation finds that people rely on each other for help.
The study shows that when people signal a need for assistance, their small requests don’t go unanswered. Across cultures, people follow these small requests far more often than they decline them. On the rare occasions when people do decline, they explain why. These human tendencies suggest that, deep down, people from all cultures have many similar cooperative behaviors.
The new findings help solve a puzzle generated by prior research which has emphasized variation in rules and standards governing cooperation. For example, in Kenya, wealthier Orma villagers are expected to pay for public goods such as road projects. Wealthy Gnau villagers of Papua New Guinea, on the other hand, would reject such an offer because it creates an awkward moral duty to return for their poorer neighbors.
“Cultural differences like this have created a puzzle for understanding cooperation and helping among humans,” said Rossi, a chief researcher. “Are our decisions about sharing and helping shaped by the culture we grew up with? Or are humans generous and giving by nature?”
To answer those questions, the researchers analyzed over 40 hours’ video recordings of everyday life involving 350 people in geographically and culturally diverse sites. The analysis focused on the order in which one person sent a signal for help and another person responded. The situations involved “l(fā)ow-cost” decisions about sharing items for everyday use. Such decisions are more frequent than “high-cost” decisions like contributing to a village road’s construction, the types of decisions considered to be significantly influenced by culture.
People followed small requests seven times more often than they declined. They helped without explanation, but when they declined, 74% of the time they gave a specific reason.
“A cross-cultural preference for following small requests is not predicted by prior research on resource-sharing and cooperation, which instead suggests that culture should cause helping behavior to vary in appreciable ways due to local values and adaptations to the natural, technological, and socio-economic environment,” said Rossi. “These factors could in principle make it easier for people to say ‘no’ to small requests, but this is not what we find.”
12. What is included in “These human tendencies” underlined in paragraph 2?
A. To ask for assistance. B. To aid others on request.
C. To return the previous favor. D. To turn down an offer of help.
13. Why does the author mention “Orma villagers” and “Gnau villagers” in paragraph 3?
A. To indieate humans are born generous. B. To evaluate varied interpersonal bonds.
C. To show cultural differences on helping. D. To reveal the origin of non-cooperation.
14. Based on the study, if someone declines a request for help, he’ll probably say “______”.
A. It’s my pleasure.
B. I’d love to, but it depends.
C. I’m afraid not. Wait till others come.
D. Sorry, but I’m to attend an urgent meeting.
15. What do we know about the prior research mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. It involved no environmental factors.
B. It stressed the value of following requests.
C. It failed to prove the universal willingness to help.
D. It produced an outcome consistent with the new study.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】這是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章介紹了一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn),人們通常愿意提供給他人幫助,但是否提供幫助也受到了不同地區(qū)的文化的影響。
【12題詳解】
詞句猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)畫線短語(yǔ)上句“Across cultures, people follow these small requests far more often than they decline them.”(在不同的文化背景下,人們遵循這些小要求的頻率遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)高于拒絕它們的頻率。)可知,當(dāng)人們接收到其他人的求助時(shí),通常會(huì)提供幫助,這是人類的傾向性行為,由此可知,“These human tendencies”包含了應(yīng)要求幫助他人。故選B項(xiàng)。
【13題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段關(guān)鍵句““Cultural differences like this have created a puzzle for understanding cooperation and helping among humans,” said Rossi, a chief researcher.”(首席研究員羅西說(shuō):“像這樣的文化差異為理解人類之間的合作和幫助制造了一個(gè)難題?!保┛芍皧W爾馬村民”和“格瑙村民”對(duì)待幫助他人有不同的態(tài)度,這是文化差異造成的,由此可知,作者在第三段中提到“奧爾馬村民”和“格瑙村民”是為了展示在幫助方面的文化差異。故選C項(xiàng)。
【14題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段關(guān)鍵句“They helped without explanation, but when they declined, 74% of the time they gave a specific reason.”(他們?cè)跊]有解釋的情況下提供幫助,但當(dāng)他們拒絕時(shí),74%的情況下他們給出了具體的原因。)可知,當(dāng)人們拒絕提供幫助時(shí),74%的情況下會(huì)給出具體的原因,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可知,“對(duì)不起,我要參加一個(gè)緊急會(huì)議。”是拒絕提供幫助的一個(gè)具體原因。故選D項(xiàng)。
【15題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段關(guān)鍵句““A cross-cultural preference for following small requests is not predicted by prior research on resource-sharing and cooperation, which instead suggests that culture should cause helping behavior to vary in appreciable ways due to local values and adaptations to the natural, technological, and socio-economic environment,” said Rossi.”(羅西說(shuō):“先前關(guān)于資源共享和合作的研究并沒有預(yù)測(cè)到跨文化偏好遵循小請(qǐng)求,相反,這表明,由于當(dāng)?shù)氐膬r(jià)值觀和對(duì)自然、技術(shù)和社會(huì)經(jīng)濟(jì)環(huán)境的適應(yīng),文化應(yīng)該導(dǎo)致幫助行為以明顯的方式發(fā)生變化?!保┛芍惹暗难芯繘]有考慮到跨文化對(duì)提供幫助產(chǎn)生的影響,由此可知,先前的研究沒有考慮到環(huán)境因素。故選A項(xiàng)。

Yours ever,
Li Hua
【答案】Dear Jack,
I really appreciate your invitation to travel to France. But I have to decline it for some reasons. First, the long-distance tour costs a lot, which my family can't afford. Besides, travelling abroad takes much time, which will otherwise be used for my studies. So I have some other idea of the summer tour. How about a less costly five-day tour to Beijing? As a cultural center heavy with history, Beijing can allow us not only to experience unique Chinese cultures but to taste distinctive cuisines. We’re sure to enjoy ourselves there!
Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours ever,
Li Hua

47. 閱讀下面材料,根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語(yǔ)續(xù)寫兩段,使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
With new faces everywhere, the time in Grade 1 was really tough for me. Since I was an Indian girl, nobody wanted to talk to me. Every spare minute was spent alone, and no classmates would group with me for projects.
Feeling lonely and sad, I was in desperate need of close friends, with whom I hoped to share my happiness and sorrow. A girl named Fatin, who was cute, clever and talented, appealed to me deeply. However, she seemed to be avoiding me as well. Being only six years old, I didn’tunderstand why people treated me like that, I opened up to my mother about all this, almost crying my eyes out.
Mom smiled, patting me on the shoulder and comforting me until I calmed down. She looked into my eyes and encouraged me, “Honey, don’t worry. They’re just not familiar with you. Try to bring out the best in you. They’ll befriend you as long as they see your excellence.” At that time, I didn’t believe her, but Mom was right.
One day my teacher, Miss Bibiena, announced that there was to be a speech competition. My heart pounded wildly. I really enjoyed participating in speech competitions. Actually, I was quite good at them. The only problem was that the whole school would be watching me and I knew none of my audience.
However, I was determined to do it. I gathered all my courage, marched up to the teacher and said, “Miss Bibiena, I want to join in the speech competition.” She stared at me for such a long time that I started to feel uncomfortable, but then I saw a gentle smile spreading over her face. She handed me an application form.
The next day, I arrived at school early to submit my form to the teacher. Taking the form, Miss Bibiena said encouragingly to me, “For a new student, you have lots of courage. Do your best, Sneha!” Rarely did Miss Bibiena praise anyone. On my way to class, I smiled at her remark, which lifted up my spirits that day.
注意:
1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右;
2.請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
Until the competition day, I practised my speech whenever possible.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
As I went off the stage, I heard someone call my name.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Until the competition day, I practiced my speech whenever possible. I even designed the necessary hand gestures and did repeated practice in front of a mirror. Then came the big day. When my name was called, I went up to the stage confidently and started presenting my speech with full enthusiasm. As I had expected, it was a real hit. The moment my speech ended, I was greeted with a standing ovation from the audience. Finally, I was declared the winner of the first prize and awarded the title of Best Speaker.
As I went off the stage, I heard someone call my name. Turning around, I found Fatin, the girl I admired, waving to me. She approached me and said cheerfully, “Hey, Sneha! You gave us such an amazing speech. Never had I expected you to be so great! Would you like to be friends with me?” “Sure, Fatin.” I happily accepted her friendship invitation without any hesitation. Since then, the two of us have supported and inspired each other through thick and thin. So take up your courage and show your best to the world. Some day you can achieve what you initially dreamt of.

【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文以人物為線索展開,講述了作者是一個(gè)印度女孩,在新的班級(jí)中沒有人和她一起做玩耍,也沒有人愿意與她一起做小組項(xiàng)目。班級(jí)中一個(gè)叫Fatin的女孩卻聰明,可愛招人喜歡。作者將學(xué)校的情況講述給媽媽,媽媽鼓勵(lì)作者要將自己最好的一面展示出來(lái),當(dāng)別人看到自己的優(yōu)秀,就會(huì)愿意成為作者的朋友。在學(xué)校舉辦一次演講比賽的過(guò)程中,作者認(rèn)真準(zhǔn)備并且表現(xiàn)絕佳,完全展示了自己最好的一面,由此受到同學(xué)們的認(rèn)可,尤其是收獲了好女孩Fatin的友誼。
【詳解】1.段落續(xù)寫:
①由第一段首句內(nèi)容“直到比賽那天,我一有機(jī)會(huì)就練習(xí)我的演講?!笨芍?,第一段可描寫作者練習(xí)演講以及參加比賽時(shí)現(xiàn)場(chǎng)的情況。
②由第二段首句內(nèi)容“當(dāng)我走下舞臺(tái)時(shí),我聽到有人叫我的名字?!笨芍?,第二段可描寫作者從舞臺(tái)下來(lái)之后,其他同學(xué)的反應(yīng)尤其是Fatin的反應(yīng)。
2.續(xù)寫線索:準(zhǔn)備比賽——刻苦練習(xí)——上臺(tái)比賽——反響熱烈——Fatin的邀請(qǐng)——獲得友誼——感悟
