I am the girl who rarely says " no"・ A demanding career, chairing a local professional group, helping to found an international professional group, caring for a parent affairs, and caring for two dogshad burned me out. I needed a vacation.
I scheduled a week off from work and searched for beach rentals. At first, the search was in vain. Most houses were expensive, some would not allow dogs, and some were far away from the beach. At last, I found a house for the right price, with a dog-friendly fenced yard, across the street from the beach.
I took off for the rental with my dogs. It was easy to find the house. Inspecting it, the first thing I noticed was the same small carpet in the kitchen as in my own. It felt like a good sign. I let the dogs run and roll in the yard and continued my inspection. The house was very clean, the bed and sofas were all comfortable, and there were plenty of pots, pans and dishes for a week of meals. Setting into this strange place felt like taking a deep breath. We went on walks and runs on the beach. Schools of playful dolphins offshore kept pace with my walks. Fresh air and sunshine inspired creativity with my camera.
I now refer to this place as my recharge rental, and it has become the one calendar entry each year written in stone. Every visit, I meet nice people. A man on the beach told me how to recognize shark teeth in the sand. Another year, during a beach walk, a woman stopped me because she thought she knew me. It turned out we have a friend in common in Atlanta. Enjoying an annual visit to the beach has allowed me to step out of daily life and refill my energy.

A. They could jog together.
B. She met her in Atlanta before.
C. She wanted to show her shark teeth.
D. She recognized her as an acquaintance.
27. What would be the best title for the text?
A. My Quiet Escape B. My Refreshing Shelter
C. My Lovely Neighbor D. My Beach Experience

Scientists at a Nevada earthquake lab tested new bridge designs last Wednesday. The designs have connectors they say are innovative (创新的).The designs were created to better stand violent earthquakes and speed reconstruction efforts after major quake damage.
The engineers in University of Nevada, Reno performed the experiments on a huge “shake table.” They
attempted to simulate (模拟)the violent movements of an earthquake hitting a 100-ton, 70-fbot bridge model. They wanted to see how well it would hold up. Graduate students measured and marked signs of tiny cracks. But no major structural damage was observed in the initial review of the experiments. “The bridge has done better than we expected”, said Saiid Saiidi. He is a professor of civil and environmental engineering, also the project leader. He’s done related research for more than 30 years.
Bridges are already designed not to fall apart in earthquakes. But they are often unsafe for travel after big quakes. He said the tested designs used special types of connectors to link pre-made bridge parts. This included high-performance concrete. The parts have been tested on their own. But they were never tested before combined in a bridge model subjected to realistic earthquake movements, like the 1994 Northridge, California quake. Wednesday’s test inside the University of Nevad’s Earthquake Engineering Laboratory simulated the activities of a quake as large as magnitude 7. 5. The innovative connectors allow for ready-made concrete and other materials to be attached to an existing bridge foundation. This should speed repair and reconstruction.
The University of Nevada’s Earthquake Engineering Laboratory is the largest of its kind in the United States. The latest project is funded by the California Department of Transportation, which is currently developing plans for 10 pilot projects based on the developing bridge connector technology.
28. Why did the scientists work on the new bridge designs?
A. To observe quake damage.
B. To measure structural damage.
C. To simulate violent earthquakes.
D. To accelerate repair and rebuilding of bridges.
29. What is Professor Saiid Saiidi’s attitude towards the experiments?
A. Satisfied. B. Disappointed. C. Indifferent. D. Curious.
30. Which of the following can describe the experiments?
A. They were conducted in a small lab.
B. They caused huge cracks on the model.
C. They combined bridge parts with connectors.
D. They tested the bridges in genuine earthquakes.
31. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To solve a problem. B. To present a research result.
C. To give practical advice. D. To prevent damage from happening.
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. C 31. B
【解析】

According to the Study Abroad Trend Report for 2018, conducted by Chinese education website Eol. cn, the number of Chinese students who study abroad to gain a bachelor’s degree or below is rising, and the current group of Chinese overseas students is younger than those in the past years.
Du Xiying, a Beijing-based study-abroad agent, has first-hand experience working with this younger crop of students. “When I started this job some 10 years ago, almost all cases were filed by college graduates trying to apply for a master's degree in the US, UK, Australia and Canada,” said Du. “Now quite a number of my clients are high school graduates, and my company even transferred some experienced consultants to cover the increasing need of college-bound Chinese students.” However, in the eyes of Du, most of them are not ready to put themselves in a completely different context at such a young age. Although there are no statistics available, according to Du’s observations, college-bound high school graduates from China fall into two groups. There is a group of students from well-off families, with good grades and excellent command of English, and there is another group who did not do very well in their college entrance exams, so they seek to study abroad as a solution to their troubles. “In recent years, with the financial ability of Chinese families growing with the country's development, buying into college is very
common,” said Du.
Complaints come from both destination schools in the US and parents of students. Going abroad at a young age needs a great deal of discipline(自律),and college students don't usually live at home-stays so they are free from management. A considerable quantity of students have ended with being dismissed(开除).
As to the dismissal issue, Du said it’s inevitable due to the large number of students crowding abroach. It’s just not easy to ensure quality. But she does think both students and parents should be responsible for their own investment of both time and money. “The worst case is that a family throws out 1 million yuan for their child to come home with nothing, not even fluent English,”said Du.
32. What change is mentioned in paragraph 1 and paragraph 2?
A. The age of Chinese students studying abroad is getting younger.
B. More Chinese students studying abroad are getting a master’s degree.
C. Excellent students prefer studying abroad to taking college entrance exams.
D. Chinese students’ grades are improving due to professional consultants’ help.
33. Which opinion does Du probably agree with?
A. Most young students are qualified to study abroad.
B. Buying into schools could be a good solution to students’ problems.
C. Destination schools should be responsible for the management of students.
D. Parents and students should be cautious about the decision to study abroad.
34. Why do some students fail in their oversea study?
A. They are not financially supported.
B. They are rejected by destination schools.
C. They can't live up to their parents’ expectations.
D. They can't live and study abroad independently.
35. What does the underlined word “inevitable” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Can’t be avoided. B. Can’t be ignored.
C. Can’t be realized. D. Can’t be predicted.
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. D 35. A
【解析】

【35题详解】
词义猜测题。根据最后一段第一句和第二句As to the dismissal issue,Du said it’s inevitable due to the large number of students crowding abroad.It’s just not easy to ensure quality. (至于解雇问题,杜表示,这是______________,由于大量的学生涌入国外,保证质量是不容易)可知杜说由于学生数量多,难以保证质量,所以被大学开除的问题是“难以避免的”。故选A项。

【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国四川著名的旅游景点——黄龙景区。
【61题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:它位于岷山山脉南部,距首都成都370公里。locate表示“位于,坐落”时使用被动语态:be located in…,描述地理位置使用一般现在时,主语是三单it,be动词需用is。故填is located。
【62题详解】
考查名词。句意:黄龙峡谷是一处特别的景区。不定冠词a后需接可数名词单数,attract名词形式为attraction,故填attraction。
【63题详解】
考查时态。句意:黄龙得名于古代的一条河流,这条河像一条巨大的金龙。根据时间状语in ancient times可知,空处谓语动词需用一般过去时,故填got。
【64题详解】
考查名词复数形式。这里指一串池塘,所以空处名词需用复数,pool的复数形式为pools,故填pools。
【65题详解】
考查定语从句关系代词的用法。句意:在黄龙,这种无色或白色的软矿物经过几千年形成了一种岩石。分析句子结构可知,空处需用关系词引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是the soft mineral,关系词在定语从句中作主语,所以空处需用关系代词which引导非限定性定语从句,故填which。
【66题详解】
考查形容词。这里指矿物质让水呈现出多种颜色,分析句子结构可知,空处需用形容词作定语修饰名词shades ,variety形容词形式为various/varied,故填various/varied。
【67题详解】
考查副词。这里指水的颜色主要是黄色,副词修饰形容词yellow,形容词main的副词形式为mainly,故填mainly。
【68题详解】
考查现在分词作后置定语。分析句子结构可知,本句已有谓语动词,所以空处需用非谓语动词作定语修饰名词dragon,a great yellow dragon和wander是主谓关系,现在分词表主动,所以空处需用现在分词wandering作后置定语,指河流就像一条黄龙漫步山间。故填wandering。
【69题详解】
考查动词不定式。这里指为了保护景区,不鼓励游客下水,encourage sb.to do sth.意为:鼓励某人做某事,不定式作宾语补足语。本句为sb be encouraged to do sth , 动词不定式作主语补足语。故填to go。
【70题详解】
考查固定短语。这里指因为黄龙是很多野生动物家园,所以禁止打猎和徒步。be home to
意为:某地是……的家园,固定短语。故填to。

10.去掉with
【解析】
【分析】
这是一封邮件。作者写信告诉玛丽关于本月29
日学校将举行一场网球比赛的消息,并鼓励玛丽积极参加比赛。
【详解】1.考查同位语从句的引导词。句意:我很高兴告诉你一个好消息,本月29日我们学校将举行一场网球比赛。分析句子可知,此处是一个同位语从句,作a piece of good news 的同位语,a tennis match will be hold in our school成分完整,因此用that引导同位语从句,引导词不可省略。故在news后加that。
2. 考查过去分词。根据will be可知此处要用过去分词形式,构成一般将来时的被动语态。故将hold改为held。
3. 考查时态。整篇文章都使用的是一般现在时,所以这里也用一般现在时,主语是The competition,可知谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式。故将welcomed改为welcomes。
4. 考查冠词。句意:这项比赛欢迎任何对这项运动感兴趣的人参加。此处用the表示特指,特指对网球运动感兴趣。故将a改为the。
5. 考查连词。根据why not participate?可知前后为因果关系,因此用连词so。故将since改为so。
6. 考查副词。根据this is a chance可知此处表示肯定,因此要用表示肯定的副词,修饰后面整个句子。故将Uncertainly改为Certainly。
7. 考查代词。句意:当然,这是一个展示你的才能和结交朋友的机会。根据上文You’re talented in tennis可知此处指的是“你的才能”。故将his改为your。
8.考查基数词。The top ten“前十名”,因此要用基数词。故将tenth改为ten。
9. 考查名词的数。名词success“成功”是不可数名词,没有复数形式。故将successes改为success。
10. 考查动词。动词contact“联系”,是及物动词,后面可直接加宾语,因此介词with多余。故将with去掉。
第二节 书面表达(满分25分)
