B
This all started a few months ago, when I had a dull pain in the back of my mouth, around
where one of my wisdom teeth was supposed to be coming in. I thought it was a pain that I could
live with for a while.
However, during the next few weeks, the pain became more intense, spreading to my teeth,
gums and jaw. I was told I had seven wisdom teeth.
Yes, you read that correctly, seven — three more than a normal person. My first reaction when I heard was to laugh. It’s just my luck. My mouth wanted to do more work than it had to.
Focusing on the positive, one of the great things about having extra teeth is watching people’s
reactions when they find out. So far, I haven’t grown tired of repeating myself.
The extra teeth are also a good excuse for me being tongue-tied. I can now blame it on my
overcrowded mouth rather than my slow brain.
Of course, with wisdom teeth come the intellect jokes. My parents say my intelligence comes
from my extra teeth and not my hard work. My friends agree that once the teeth are pulled, my brain
will be that of a 5-year-old.
I’ve also thought about how I might profit from this. If only I still believed in the tooth fairy, I
could make a lot of cash. Maybe I could sell my extras to someone in need. Advertisement: Seven
teeth for sale, unused, in almost perfect condition.
Don’t be fooled by my jokes. I am worried about having surgery. I’m also going to be sad to
see the Lucky Seven go. I’ve developed quite an attachment to them over the past two days. Once
they’re removed, I’ll just be normal again, and who wants that?
24．When the author found that she had three more wisdom teeth than a normal person, she
________.
A．found it quite funny B．dealt with the pain calmly
C．was confused and anxious D．kept it secret from others
25．The intellect jokes from the author’s family and friends were intended to ________.
A．persuade the author not to remove her wisdom teeth
B．advise the author to work hard to improve her intelligence
C．make fun of the author in a light-hearted way
D．let the author know why she is often tongue-tied
26．When the author brought up the idea of tooth fairy, she ________.
A．thought she could rely on it to make a living
B．had already made up her mind to make money
C．believed that her wisdom teeth were in perfect condition
D．was deeply aware that the idea couldn’t become reality
27．What’s the article mainly about?
A．People’s different reactions to the author’s wisdom teeth.
B．How the author has gotten on with her extra wisdom teeth.
C．The author’s ideas for making use of her wisdom teeth.
D．How the author has decided to remove her wisdom teeth.C
For the first time, the World Health Organization has included Traditional Chinese Medicine
(TCM) in its globally influential medical compendium(手册), according to an international science
journal.
An article published by Nature on Wednesday said that TCM will be included in the latest
version of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD)set to be released next year. Starting
from the 1800s, the ICD has been improved and published in a series of editions,reflecting the
advances in health and medical science over time. It serves as the foundation for the identification of
global health trends, and the international standard for diseases and health conditions.
The latest ICD is based largely on the work of the International Classification of Traditional
Medicine (ICTM) project's experts from around the world. These experts had been working on
traditional medicine research and practices for years.
China has been promoting the modernization of TCM and pushing for TCM to gain
acceptance worldwide. Tu Youyou, a Chinese expert focusing on the scientific study of drugs and
medicines, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2015 for her research in TCM. Her
discovery has saved millions of lives in developing countries in South Asia, Africa and South
America. TCM is sure to grow in popularity globally.
Though the application of traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture(针灸) and other traditional
medical practices has been on the rise, there's still a shortage of global classification and
terminology(术语) tools for traditional medicine, according to officials of the WHO.
“The decision is to promote the safe and effective use of traditional medicine by regulating,
researching and combining traditional medicine products, practitioners and practice into health
systems, where appropriate," the WHO was quoted as saying by Nature.
28. What can we learn about the ICD from Paragraph 2?
A. It has included TCM this year. B. It has a history of over 300 years.
C. It is published in various languages. D. It provides standards for diseases worldwide.
29. Why does the author mention Tu Youyou in Paragraph 4?
A. To imply the worldwide popularity of TCM.
B. To prove TCM's gaining worldwide acceptance
C. To introduce a breakthrough in the medical field.
D. To show Chinese people deserve the Nobel Prize for their contribution.
30. Which aspect of TCM has shown an upward trend worldwide?
A. The classification of TCM. B. The standard of TCM terms.
C. The official promotion of TCM. D. The use of traditional Chinese medicine
31. Which column of website is the text most probably taken from?
A. Lifestyle. B. Opinion C. Health. D. TechD
Smile, you’re on body cam
As camera technology gets smaller and cheaper, it isn’t hard to imagine a future where we’re all
filming everything all the time, in every direction.
Would that be a good thing? There are some obvious potential upsides. If people know they are
on camera, especially when at work or using public services, they are surely less likely to misbehave.
Another upside is that it would be harder to get away with crimes or to escape from blame for
accidents.
Body-cam data could also create a legal minefield（ 雷区 ）. Arguments over the truth and
interpretation of police footage( 影 像 ) have already surfaced. Eventually, events not caught on
camera could be treated as if they didn’t happen. Alternatively, footage could be faked or doctored
(伪造) to avoid blame or do wrong to others.
Of course, some people think that if you are not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to fear.
But most people have done something embarrassing, or even illegal, that they regret and would
prefer hadn’t been caught on film. People already remove their social media feeds or avoid doing
anything wrong in public — for fear of damaging their reputation.
The always-on-camera world could even threaten some of the qualities that make us human.
We are natural persons who enjoy talking about other people’s private lives and while those might
not be desirable behaviours, they oil the wheels of our social interactions. Once people assume they
are being filmed, they are likely to keep silent.
The argument in relation to body-cam ownership is a bit like that for guns: once you go past a
critical threshold(临界值), almost everyone will feel they need one as an insurance policy. We are
nowhere near that point yet- but we should think hard about whether we really want to say lights,
body cam, action.
32．What does the underlined word “upsides” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．advantages. B．rules. C．shortcomings. D．dangers.
33．Why do people argue about police footage?
A．Police footage can show the truth. B．Events caught on footage are treated
unfairly.
C．Police footage could be changed on purpose. D．Footage should not be filmed by police.
34．What does the author believe?
A．People behave well with cameras on.
B．People’s private lives should be respected.
C．Talking about others’ private lives promotes social interactions.
D．People keep silent before cameras when talking about themselves.
35．What is suggested in the last paragraph?
A ． We don’t need a critical threshold. B ． We should be cautious in adopting
body-cam.
C ． We need body-cam as an insurance policy. D ． We haven’t decided whether to take
action. 第二节 (共 5 小题; 每小题 2 分, 满分 10 分)

项。
When everything goes wrong, always look at what you have, instead of what you have
lost. Because it’s not what the world takes away from you that counts; it’s what you do with what
you have left. 36
Pain is part of growing.
Sometimes life closes doors because it’s time to move forward. 37 When times are tough,
remind yourself that no pain comes without a purpose. Remember that there are two kinds of pain:
pain that hurts and pain that changes you. When you roll with life, instead of resisting it, both kinds
help you grow.
38
Every time you get hurt, you heal. After darkness there is always light – you are reminded of
this every morning, but still you often forget, and instead choose to believe that the night will last
forever. It won’t. Nothing lasts forever.
Complaining changes nothing.
39 It’s always better to attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing
and succeed. It’s not over if you’ve lost; it’s over when you do nothing but complain about it. If you
believe in something, keep trying. Don’t let the shadows of the past darken the doorstep of your
future.
The best thing you can do is to keep going.
Don’t be afraid to get back up----to try again, to love again, to live again, and to dream again.
Don’t let a hard lesson harden your heart. Life’s best lessons are often learned at the worst times and
from the worst mistakes. There will be times when it seems like everything that could possibly go
wrong is going wrong. 40
A. Everything in life is temporary.
B. And even if you fall short, keep going.
C. Your scars are symbols of your strength.
D. Those who complain the most, accomplish the least.
E.Here are a few tips to inspire you when you need it most.
F.That’s a good thing because we often won’t move unless life forces us to .
G.When you feel like quitting, remember that sometimes things can be right eventually.

intelligence. Professor Salovery, who ever 67 (invent) the term EQ, gives the following 68
(describe): At work, it is IQ 69 gets you promoted. 70 (support) by his academic research,
Professor Salovery shows that when someone’s future success is predicted, their character, as

第二节 概要写作（满分 25 分）
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇 60 词左右的内容概要。
Have you heard an old saying “The grass looks greener on the other side of the fence”? It
means other places often look better, more interesting than the place where you live. “Let’s go to
KFC for dinner and then watch some Japanese cartoons!” We all know it: more and more Chinese
kids love American and Japanese food and movies. Some people worry that young Chinese are
beginning to feel that way. They see young Chinese ignoring（忽视）Chinese culture and, instead,
buying Japanese cartoon books, watching Korean soap operas and even celebrating western
holidays.
Foreign books and soap operas are good, but Chinese writers and actors are just as good. As for
holidays, Christmas is nice, but it can never have the meaning for Chinese that Spring Festival has,
and the West has nothing to compare with the Mid-Autumn Festival. China has lots of cool things in
its culture: calligraphy, Beijing Opera, quick meals on the streets, and even Jay Chou! And let’s not
forget the part of Chinese culture I like best: its friendliness. Not all countries are as warm as China.
It’s good to enjoy other cultures and learn from them, but they can never replace your own
culture. It’s good to look on the other side of the fence, but make sure you take a good long look.
You will find that the grass isn’t always greener.
Although some people become worried about that, I don’t think they should. Will we get more
powerful without learning from other countries? Will Chinese people live more happily without
American fast food? Besides, it’s fun to learn about different cultures. Chinese kids can learn about
other cultures and have fun, but they also need to learn more about their own culture. Be proud of
Chinese culture and of being Chinese!

W: A travel website conducted a survey on hotel complaints and found some unusual things. The
site Skyscanner. Net surveyed 400 hotel staff in 39 countries. It asked about the strangest things
guests had asked for or complained about. Staff said that most of the unusual complaints were about
food. Other requests were about rooms. Not every hotel room is to everybody’s taste, but the
complaints in the Skyscanner survey were so strange that they make you wonder how the hotel staff
answered. It would be impossible for any hotel to make some of these complaining guests happy.
The complaints about food were very strange. One guest asked for 16 cucumbers a day. Another
requested only the right leg of a chicken. The staff wondered if the left leg didn’t taste as nice as the
right leg. One guest asked for something not normally on the menu — crocodile soup. Other
complaints were totally crazy. A man at a luxury hotel in London complained that his room did not
have a sea view. The nearest beach to London is about 75 kilometers away. Other guests wanted the toilet filled with mineral water, a bath full of honey and a discount because his girlfriend snored（打
呼噜）.

是语言伤害不了我。至少她试着去相信。A. meant 意味着；B. tried 试着去做；C. avoided 避
免；D. hoped 希望。由下文中她的朋友听到别人的讽刺还是会难受，可知她不是已经相信了这
句话，她是试着让自己相信这句话。故选 B。
2．考查副词。句意：她小时候很胖，她常常被嘲笑。A. once 曾经；B. never 从不；C. always
总是；D. seldom 很少。由常识可知，肥胖是会常常遭到人嘲笑的。故选 C。

Many young Chinese prefer foreign items, considering them to be better.（要点1）Nevertheless,

本篇属于概要性写作。概要写作，简而言之就是对所读过的文章简要概括，写出文章的中心
大意，也可称之为摘要。这一题型主要考查学生对文章主旨大意的概括和准确获取关键词的
能力，同时考查学生用简洁的语言概括文章重要信息的能力以及对文章整体结构的把握能力。
建议写作步骤如下：
1. 细读原文。首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握文章主旨和结构，明确各段的大意。
2. 列出原文要点。分析原文的内容和结构，将内容分项扼要表述并注意在结构上的顺序。在
此基础上选出与文章主题密切相关的部分。并把这些要点用适当的连接词进行连接，使上下
句之间具有连贯性。
3. 列出关键词汇。关键词对于整篇文章的理解与转化成自己的语言都很关键，如果不能准确
领会其用意，语篇理解的效果就会大打折扣。概要写作的基础是理解语篇，而读懂语篇的基
础是词汇，尤其是对关键词汇的掌握与运用。在此基础上，综合运用语法与句法结构，按照
行文逻辑组织语言，形成概要。
其次，要注意以下一些要点：
1. 概要应包括原文中的主要事实，略去不必要的细节。
2. 安排好篇幅的比例，概要应同原文保持协调，即用较多的文字写重要内容，用较少的文字
写次要内容。
3. 注意要点之间的衔接，要用适当的关联词语贯通全文，切忌只简单地写出一些互不相干的
句子，但也不要每两句之间都加关联词语，以免显得生硬。
4. 不排斥用原文的某些词句，但不要照搬原文的句子，如果不能完全用自己的话语表达，至
少要对原文句子做一些同义词替换，若结构上也能有一些转换，则会更好。
5. 注意计算词数，看是否符合规定的词数要求。注意检查是否有拼写错误，标点符号是否规
范，书写是否整洁，这些情况都是评分的考虑范围。
【亮点说明】文中使用了非常好的短语和句子为文章增色不少，比如 such as，In a word，take
pride in；还运用句型 Many young Chinese prefer foreign items, considering them to be better.和 In
a word, Chinese kids just need to learn more and take pride in Chinese culture while enjoying other
cultures.这两句话运用了现在分词作状语，Foreign cultures, which are not always good, can never
replace your own culture.这句话运用了非限定性定语从句等。并注意了句子的衔接，运用了连
词如 Nevertheless，In a word，and，while 等等。
