Two of the saddest words in the English language are “if only”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.
My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding(衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.
I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had forgone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you”. When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here. But then I thought about the fact that he’s 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn’t miss an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.
I know there will still be occasions when I have to say if only about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that I, m doing the right thing. tm buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.
4. Why does the writer regard “if only, , as two of the saddest words in the English language?
A. Because people use them when they feel sad.
B. Because they express regret and disappointment in life.
C. Because they remind the writer of some sad experiences.
D. Because they mean sad in the English language.
5. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “foregone” in Paragraph 3?
A. Given up. B. Come across.
C. Got through. D. Held back.
6. The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to .
A. see a doctor B. finish her work
C. join a celebration D. accompany her father
7. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Advice from My Father
B. Avoidance of Saying “If Only”
C. The “Extra Minute” Rule
D. The Importance of Emotional Well-being
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. B
【解析】这篇文章主要讲了作者认为“要是……多好”是英语中最悲伤的两个词,因为它们表达着生活中的后悔和失望,所以要珍惜现在所拥有的一切,尽可能避免做后悔的事情,避免说“要是……多好”。
4. 细节理解题。由because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.可知作者认为“要是……多好”是英语中最悲伤的两个词,因为它们表达着生活中的后悔和失望,选B。
5. 词意猜测题。由We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had forgone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you”.可知我们都知道失去亲人的人当初放弃了一个机会说"我爱你"或"我原谅你"。所以划线词语意思是放弃,故选A。
6. 推理判断题。由But then I thought about the fact that he’s 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn’t miss an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.可知作者决定在复活节前的星期五去办公室,是为了陪伴她的父亲。选D。

Imagine this scene: it’s blowing outside, and you snuggle (蜷伏) up on the sofa under a warm quilt, chatting and recalling with your closest friends.
That content, cosy feeling has a name in Danish —hygge. And, as Denmark recently won the title of “the happiest country in the world”, the concept of hygge is known to more and more people interested in finding ways to understand this concept.
Hygge —originally from a Norwegian word meaning well-being — doesn’t have an exact equivalent (等同物) in English. It’s often translated as coziness, or as blogger Anna West told the BBC, “coziness of the soul”. But, as professor Maren Spark explains, “Hygge was never meant to be translated. It was meant to be felt.”
Basically, hygge involves creating a warm, cosy atmosphere and enjoying it with your loved ones. Danish winters are long and dark and so achieving hygge is particularly relevant during this season. A typical Hygge activity during winter could be enjoying delicious homemade food and light-hearted conversation with friends —preferably in the warm glow of candlelight, or maybe sipping a glass of wine in the hot tub after a day spent skiing.
However, hygge isn’t only limited to the cold winter months —it can also describe that warm, fuzzy feeling you get after a walk through a forest with friends on summer’s day or a family barbecue in the park. Hygge is meant to be shared.
8. The author asks the readers to imagine the scene in the first paragraph to .
A. help the readers to calm down
B. introduce the topic of the passage
C. present the main idea of the passage
D. remind the readers of their past memories
9. What do the underlined words by Maren Spark mean?
A. The translation of the word “hygge” is not good enough.
B. Only Danish speakers know what “hygge” means.
C. “Hygge” is easy to translate but hard to feel.
D. We can get the true meaning of “hygge” by feeling it.
10. Which of the following can be best described as a “hygge” activity?
A. Skiing in the cold winter months.
B. Living through long dark winters.
C. Taking afternoon tea with friends.
D. Walking alone in the forest.
11. The author writes this passage to .
A. explain B. persuade
C. comment D. advertise
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】文章通过举例说明丹麦语hygge的意思,并且表明Hygge只可意会不可言传,需要用心去感受。
8. 写作意图题。Imagine this scene: it’s blowing outside, and you snuggle (蜷伏) up on the sofa under a warm quilt, chatting and recalling with your closest friends.作者描写这样惬意舒服的场景是为了引出文章的话题Hygge,选B。
9. 推理判断题。由doesn’t have an exact equivalent (等同物) in English.可知“Hygge was never meant to be translated. It was meant to be felt.”的意思是Hygge只可意会不可言传,选D。
10. 推理判断题。由Basically, hygge involves creating a warm, cosy atmosphere and enjoying it with your loved ones.可知Hygge意味着舒适和分享,和朋友一起喝下午茶最符合这个意境,选C。
11. 写作意图题。文章通过举例说明丹麦语hygge的意思,并且表明Hygge只可意会不可言传,需要用心去感受。所以作者写这篇文章的目的是为了解释,选A。
D
You’ll probably never go to Mars or sing on the stage with the Rolling Stones. But if virtual reality (VR) ever lives up to its promise, you might be able to do all these things — and many more —
without even leaving your home. Unlike real reality, virtual reality means simulating (模仿) bits of our world. Apart from games and entertainment, it’s long been used for training airline pilots and surgeons and for helping scientists to figure out complex problems such as the structure of protein molecules (分子). Then how does it work?
Close your eyes and think of virtual reality and you probably picture something like this: a man wearing a wrap-around headset and data gloves wired into a powerful workstation or supercomputer. What distinguishes VR from an ordinary computer experience is the nature of the input and output. Where an ordinary computer uses things like a keyboard, mouse, or speech recognition for input, VR uses sensors that detect how your body is moving. And where a PC displays output on a screen, VR uses two screens (one for each eye), surround-sound speakers, and maybe some forms of touch and body feedback as well.
VR has been routinely used by scientists, doctors, dentists, engineers, architects, archaeologists, and the military for about the last 30 years. Difficult and dangerous jobs are hard to train for. How can you safely practice taking a trip to space, making a parachute jump, or carrying out brain surgery? Al these things are obvious candidates for virtual reality applications.
Like any technology, virtual reality has both good and bad points. Critics always raise the risk that people may be addicted to alternative realities to the point of ignoring their real-world lives — but that criticism has been leveled at everything from radio and TV to computer games and the Internet. Like many technologies, VR takes little or nothing away from the real world: you don’t have to use it if you don’t want to.
12. What equipment do we probably need for virtual reality?
A. A keyboard, a headset and a supercomputer.
B. A headset, data gloves and a speech recognition.
C. A headset, data gloves and a supercomputer.
D. A keyboard, a mouse and a speech recognition.
13. Paragraph 3 is mainly about .
A. the principles of virtual reality
B. the applications of virtual reality
C. the history of virtual reality
D. the influences of virtual reality
14. According to the passage, virtual reality means .
A. imagining beautiful things in our mind
B. creating something that doesn’t exist
C. experiencing things that don’t really exist
D. cloning something that has died out
15. What is the writer’s attitude towards VR?
A. Appreciative. B. Cautious.
C. Skeptical. D. Indifferent.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】本文主要介绍了虚拟现实技术的应用以及人们对这种技术的态度。
12. 细节理解题。由a man wearing a wrap-around headset and data gloves wired into a powerful workstation or supercomputer.可知虚拟现实需要一个头戴式受话器、数据手套和超级计算机,选C。
13. 主旨大意题。由段落主题句All these things are obvious candidates for virtual reality applications. 可知这一自然段主要讲了虚拟现实的应用,选B。
14. 细节理解题。由But if virtual reality (VR) ever lives up to its promise, you might be able to do all these things — and many more — without even leaving your home.可知虚拟现实指的是经历一些实际上不存在的东西,选C。
15. 推理判断题。由All these things are obvious candidates for virtual reality applications.和but that criticism has been leveled at everything from radio and TV to computer games and the Internet. Like many technologies, VR takes little or nothing away from the real world: you don’t have to use it if you don’t want to.可知作者对虚拟现实持赞赏态度,选A。

【名师点睛】
1.上下文对照,捕捉关键词。
解完型填空题时,单独看一句话是找不到正确答案的,需要阅读下句或者若干句才能明白。所谓上下对照,即在上文和下文中找到与正确答案相同的关键词。因此,在做题时要边读边在大脑中储存上下文信息的能力,捕捉关键词。
2.结合生活,利用常识解题。
目的考查学生的生活常识,看看学生是否善于观察生活,积累生活常识,能否利用常识去做恰当的选择。
第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
As you know, science plays ___41___ very important role in our education. Do you want to keep up ___42___ the latest research and discoveries in science? There are many good websites ___43___ you can check out the latest in the science world.
One great site is Science News for Kids. This site reports science news ___44___ (cover) a wide range of subjects. The articles are intended for younger readers, but adults will find this site ___45___
(suit) for them as well. Another wonderful site, one that I check out every day,___46___ (call) Science Daily. The site is ___47___ (constant) updated with news, often about exciting ___48___ (finding) that change how we view the world.
These sites post the latest stories and also keep all the past articles they ___49___ (post) earlier. That way you can find articles just about anything that ___50___ (be) related to the science fields you are interested in.
【答案】41. a 42. with
43. where 44. covering
45. suitable
46. is called
47. constantly
48. findings
49. posted 50. is
【解析】这篇文章主要介绍了一些报道最新科学研究发现的网站。
41. 考查固定用法。play a very important role in起着非常重要的作用,是固定用法,所以填a。
42. 考查固定短语。你想赶得上最新的科学研究发现吗?keep up with赶得上,是固定用法,所以填with。
43. 考查定语从句。___3___ you can check out the latest in the science world.是一个定语从句,关系词在从句中作地点状语,所以填关系副词where。
44. 考查非谓语动词。cover与其逻辑主语This site之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词,填covering。
45. 考查固定结构。find + sb. / sth. + adj. 意为“发现某人(物)……”。形容词作find的宾语补足语,所以填suitable。
46. one与call之间是被动关系,用被动语态,且表示主语现在的状态,用一般现在时,综上所述,用一般现在时的被动语态,填is called。
47. 考查副词。修饰动词updated,用副词,所以填constantly。
48. 考查名词单复数。经常是关于一些令人激动的发现。“令人激动的发现”是复数意义,所以填findings。
49. 考查时态。表示发生在过去的事情,用一般过去时,所以填posted。
50. 考查主谓一致。that ___10___ (be) related to the science fields you are interested in.是一个定语从句,修饰先行词anything,先行词anything在从句中作主语,谓语动词用单数,且表示一个客观的事实,用一般现在时,所以填is。
第四部分 写作(共两节,满分35分)
第一节 短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
51. 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。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词。
删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。
修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意:1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;
2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。
A big storm destroyed two villages in South Africa on last Friday, causing 4 death. Over 200 people became homeless as a result of the storm. A farmer said the storm began early in the morning and last one hour. He said, “I was in the kitchen with my wife and children while we heard a loud noise. A few minutes late, our house fell down. I managed to climb out, but much to my shocking, one of my boys were missing. I quickly went back inside and found them safe but frightened.” Soldiers came to rescue those burying under the ruins, and the government provided food, clothes, and shelters for homeless.
【答案】1.去掉last Friday前面的on
2. death变复数
3. last变过去时态lasted
4. while改为when
5. late 改为 later
6. shocking 改为 shock
7. were 改为 was
8. them 改为 him
9. burying 改为 buried
10. homeless 前面加 the
【解析】第一处,去掉on,last Friday前不需要加介词。
第二处,death改为deaths。考查名词的单复数。4人死亡,应用复数。
第三处,last改为lasted。考查并列谓语动词的时态一致,前文began为一般过去时,此处and之后的last也应该用一般过去时,lasted。
第四处,while改为when。在引导时间状语从句时,while之后只能跟延续性动词,而hear一词是短暂性动词,故用when替代。
第五处,late改为later。later用在一段时间之后表示“…之后”,a few minutes later 几分钟之后。而late意为“迟的,晚的”。
第六处,shocking改为shock。属词类用错,此处应用名词形式。shock 名词,震惊。much to my shock使我非常震惊的是…
第七处,were改为was。考查主谓一致。one of my boys主语是one,为单数,因此谓语用was。
第八处,them改为him。代词用错。根据前文one of my boys,此处应为单数,代词宾格用him。
第九处,burying改为buried。those buried under the ruins指那些被埋在废墟里的人。
第十处,for后加the。the homeless指的是那些无家可归的人。
