city,and I have some great friends.Life is looking good!
W:That’s great! I remember you always did love science.M:Yes,I want to become a brain doctor.It’s a lot of schooling,but it’s worth it.What kind of
job will you look for in Hawaii?

Good afternoon.Welcome to this tour of Davidson College.As a senior here,I could tell you
all about my experiences in classrooms and labs.But I think it would be most valuable to talk about
the campus as we walk around outside to get an overall feel of this amazing place.Over to my left is
the library,and besides being the main place where students do research for papers,it’s also where
a lot of students hang out between classes.There are computers and comfortable chairs everywhere,
and on each floor , there are areas that do not require you to be quiet.Perhaps this is why our
students like it so much! Down the road to my right is the student center,where students can buy
coffee,snacks,and official Davidson College clothing.The student center is open until 10:00
p.m.on school nights and until 2:00 a.m.on weekend nights.Carson Gym,which is named after
one of Davidson’s most famous professors,is open 24 hours a day,seven days a week.You can
play almost every sport you can imagine there,and there are health classes like yoga and group
dance every day except Wednesday.The best part about the gym is the cost:students pay a yearly
fee of $50,and they get to use the facilities as much as they want.All right,we’re coming up to the
stadium now...

Fiveyearold Prisilla Perez,a student at Meador Elementary School in Willis,was unhappy
with her recent haircut,which resulted from a severe disease.When students in her class started
calling Prisilla a boy,she felt ashamed,often crying and losing focus in school.
Her teacher,Shannon Grimm,sympathized with her unhappiness.Grimm and Prisilla’s mom
were concerned,but their ideas didn’t work.“We had classroom discussions about how girls have
short hair and boys have long hair , and I showed them photos of movie stars with different
looks,” Grimm said.“However,it wasn’t sinking in.”
Grimm thought about Prisilla throughout winter break,and one morning,she had an idea:cut
off her hair—a scary thought for Grimm,who wore her hair long and took pride in it.“I’ve never
had short hair,and I stressed about it for two weeks before making a decision,” she said.On
Jan.4 , Grimm invited a hairstylist friend to her home.“I told him to keep going , even if I
cried,”she said.
The class loved their teacher’s new haircut,especially Prisilla,who excitedly ran off the
school bus that afternoon yelling,“Mom,Ms Grimm cut her hair!” The teacher also bought
matching bows for herself and the girl,so they could style their hair together.
In February,the teacher recommended Prisilla for the school district’s Student of the Month
Award , but during the Monday ceremony , she received a surprise “hero medal” from the
girl.“Now we have matching awards,” says Grimm.
Prisilla’s mother,Maria,said that Grimm’s thoughtfulness brought her to tears.“I was
shocked.I was crying.I couldn’t believe it—she did something I wouldn’t have the bravery to
do.I will never forget that.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述 Prisilla Perez 因为疾病不得不剪短头发,自此班

(2019·辽宁实验中学模拟)Strangely enough,music is no fun at all for some people.About four percent of the population
is what scientists call “amusic”.People who are amusic are born without the ability to recognize
or reproduce musical notes.Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two
songs.Amusics can only hear the difference between two notes if they are very far apart on the
musical scale.
As a result,songs sound like noise to an amusic.Many amusics compare the sound of music to
pieces of metal hitting each other.Life can be hard for amusics.Their inability to enjoy music set
them apart from others.It can be difficult for other people to identify with their condition.In fact,
most people cannot begin to grasp what it feels like to be amusic.Just going to a restaurant or a
shopping mall can be uncomfortable or even painful.That is why many amusics intentionally stay
away from places where there is music.However , this can result in withdrawal and social
isolation.“I used to hate parties,” says Margaret,a seventyyearold woman who only recently
discovered that she was amusic.
By studying people like Margaret,scientists are finally learning how to identify this unusual
condition.
Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from the brains of people who can
appreciate music.The difference is complex,and it doesn’t involve defective hearing.Amusics can
understand other nonmusical sounds well.They also have no problems understanding ordinary
speech.Scientists compare amusics to people who just can’t see certain colors.
Many amusics are happy when their condition is final diagnosed.For years , Margaret felt
embarrassed about her problem with music.Now she knows that she is not alone.There is a name
for her condition.That makes it easier for her to explain.“When people invite me to a concert,I
just say,‘No,thanks,I am amusic.’,”says Margaret.“I just wish I had learned to say that
when I was seventeen and not seventy.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一群天生不爱音乐的人——乐盲。并分
析了这种现象的原因。
28.Amusics have the following characteristics except that .
A.they are born without the ability to recognize musical notes
B.they hate music and often keep off places where there is music
C.they are set apart from others as they fail to enjoy music
D.they prefer to make metal noise rather than listen to music
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据前两段内容可知,乐盲天生就没有识别音符的能力;他们讨厌音乐
也远离有音乐的地方;也因为无法欣赏音乐与他人隔绝。只有 D 项文章中没有提及,故选D。
29.How do scientists finally identify the unusual condition of amusic?
A.By sorting documents and data.
B.By studying people with amusic.
C.By making a lot of experiments.
D.By drawing on research results of others.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段可知,通过研究像玛格丽特这样乐盲的人,科学家们终于知
道了如何识别这种不寻常的情况。故选 B。
30.What does the underlined word “defective” most probably mean in the passage?
A.Detective. B.Acute.
C.Imperfect. D.Artificial.
答案 C
解析 词义猜测题。根据下文可知,乐盲们可以很好地理解其他非音乐的声音,在听普通的
谈话时也没有问题。故可以推测画线词所在句是说乐盲们的听力没有缺陷,故选 C。
31.In the last paragraph,Margaret expressed her wish that .
A.she were seventeen years old rather than seventy
B.she hadn’t felt embarrassed about her problem
C.her problem with music had been diagnosed earlier
D.there could be a better name for her condition
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen
and not seventy.(我只是希望我在十七岁而不是七十岁的时候就学会了这么说。)”可知,在最
后一段,玛格丽特表达了她的愿望——她的音乐问题早点被诊断出来。故选 C。
D
Why have so many awards ceremonies appeared recently? Shakespeare never won a prize,nor
did Leonardo da Vinci or Adam Smith or Charles Dickens.
It would be possible to say , however , that in the past , scientists and artists could win
“patronage” from rich people—a king or a lord would give the artist or scientist money to have
them paint their palaces or help them develop new ways of making money.With the change in
social systems across the world,this no longer happens.A lot of scientific research is now either
funded by the state or by private companies.Perhaps awards ceremonies are just the most recent
face of this process.
However,there is more to it than that.When a film wins an Oscar,many more people will go
and see it or buy the DVD.When a writer wins the Nobel prize , many more people buy his books.When a group win the MTV awards ,the ceremony is seen by hundreds of thousands of
people across the world.The result? The group sell lots more records.
Most awards ceremonies are now sponsored by big organizations or companies.This means
that it is not only the person who wins the award who benefits but also the sponsors.The MTV
awards,for example,are great for publicising not only music but also MTV itself!
On the surface,it seems to be a “winwin” situation,with everyone being happy,but let me
ask you a question—how far do you think that publicity and marketing are winning here,and how
much genuine recognition of achievement is taking place?
语篇解读 这是一篇议论文。作者认为现在的颁奖典礼过于泛滥,而大多数奖项由组织机
构或公司赞助,受益的表面上看也有获奖人,实际上更多的是赞助商。作者同时对颁奖让
获奖者的成就得到认可这一行为持怀疑态度。
32 . Why are some successful people like Shakespeare mentioned at the very beginning of the
passage?
A.To show great admiration.
B.To provide the background.
C.To prepare for the topic.
D.To answer the question.
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知,作者不赞同泛滥成灾的颁奖典礼,像莎士比亚、
达·芬奇或者亚当·斯密等伟人并没有得过什么奖,但仍然伟大。所以作者提及这些名人是为
提出中心思想铺路。故选 C。
33.Artists and scientists used to receive money from .
A.rich people’s support
B.sales of their works
C.different awards
D.the government
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句中的“...in the past,scientists and artists could win
‘patronage’ from rich people—a king or a lord would give the artist or scientist money to have
them paint their palaces or help them develop new ways of making money.”可知,在过去,科学
家和艺术家通过王公贵族雇请他们想生财之道或作画赢得富人的“赞助”。故选 A。
34.The writer thinks awards actually do a better job in .
A.getting the winners’ great achievements recognizedB.financially supporting a scientist’s or an artist’s work
C.improving the status of the greatest scientists or artists
D.earning more money for the awards ceremony sponsors
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。从倒数第二段第一、二句“Most awards ceremonies are now sponsored by big
organizations or companies.This means that it is not only the person who wins the award who
benefits but also the sponsors.”可知,获利更多的是赞助商们。故选 D。
35.What is the writer’s attitude towards awards ceremonies?
A.Subjective. B.Approving.
C.Doubtful. D.Indifferent.
答案 C
解析 作者态度题。由最后一段的内容可知,表面上是双赢,但实际上赢家是市场。最后一
个问句表明作者对颁奖让获奖者的成就得到认可持怀疑态度。故选 C。

Now let’s discuss something about people’s habits.
36 Some of them are good ones,but some of them may be bad ones.Can you remember any
of the bad habits you used to have when you were very young? 37 Of course,you do not do that
any more,but you can surely remember your mother’s efforts to train you.The good habits you
now have in such matters as personal cleanliness were part of this early training.
We may not suck our thumbs any more,but as we get older we get other bad habits. 38
Anyone who has tried to give up smoking knows this very well! 39 In babyhood,it’s
thumbsucking.In childhood,it’s nailbiting.In our teens,it’s smoking. 40 And if anyone tells
you that he has no bad habits,you can be sure that he must have the worst habit of all.Isn’t that
true?
A.We can’t give them up easily,either.
B.Each period brings its own problems.
C.Generally speaking,a boy likes biting nails.
D.Everyone has his or her own habits.
E.We benefit from our friends’kind help.
F.In middleage,it’s overeating,and so on.
G.Perhaps,as a baby,you used to suck your thumb(拇指).

句是提出每个人都有各自的习惯。故选 D。
37.答案 G
解析 根据前文“Can you remember any of the bad habits you used to have when you were very
young?”可知,下文是列举一种儿时的坏习惯:也许婴儿时期,你喜欢吸手指。故选 G。
38.答案 A
解析 根据下文“Anyone who has tried to give up smoking knows this very well!”可知,本空
是指戒掉坏习惯是困难的。故选 A。
39.答案 B
解析 根据后文“In babyhood,it’s thumbsucking.In childhood,it’s nailbiting.In our teens,
it’s smoking...”列举了不同时期的不同习惯,每个时期都有自己的问题。故选 B。
40.答案 F
解析 根据前文“In babyhood,it’s thumbsucking.In childhood,it’s nailbiting.In our teens,
it’s smoking.”可知,是根据时间顺序列举坏习惯,青少年之后是中年时期。故选 F。

语篇解读 这是一篇哲理感悟类文章。文章通过介绍一位女士用闹钟喊她起床的故事,
感悟道德心也是如此。如果我们听从它的声音,即使是最小的事情,我们也能清晰和强
烈地听到它。
41.答案 to strike
解析 考查固定搭配。so...as to 意为“如此……以至于”,故填 to strike。
42.答案 perfectly
解析 考查副词。用副词修饰动词 did,故填 perfectly。
43.答案 rose
解析 考查动词的时态。本篇文章用一般过去时,此处她的动作也用谓语动词的一般过去时,
故填 rose。
44.答案 However
解析 考查副词。前文提到“felt better all day”,但后文又提到“the lady grew tired of early
rising”,因此此处应表示句子关系的转折,故填 However。
45.答案 was woken解析 考查动词的时态和语态。she 与 wake up 之间是被动关系,文章的时态又是一般过去时,
故填 was woken。
46.答案 it
解析 考查代词。设空处指代前文提到的闹钟的声音,故填代词 it。
47.答案 Finding
解析 考查非谓语动词。非谓语动词短语作状语,与逻辑主语 she 构成主动关系,因此用现
在分词形式,故填 Finding。

填 with。

what。

越……”,故填 sleepy。

wasn’t very nicely.He visited several countries,and was in each of the countries for only three
days.He visited a good many places of interest,but was always in hurry.Though he returned from
Europe,he was very tired.So I suggest that you spent your holiday in a different way.We had better
travel with a friend to one country and to visit only one city at a time.You’ll be able to have a
good time.
Yours sincerely,John

语篇解读 本文是一封信,在信中作者提到了自己的建议:去旅行时,不要一次去很多
地方,要一次去一个国家旅行,或者只去一个城市。这样会玩得很开心,又不觉得很累。
第一处:考查代词。这里是固定句式:It is +形容词或名词+to do...做某事是……。it 是形
式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式。故将 this 改为 it。
第二处:考查名词。many 许多,后跟可数名词的复数形式。故将 place 改为 places。
第三处:考查介词。pay a visit to+某地,意为“去某地参观”,为固定搭配。故将 on 改为
to。
第四处:考查动词的时态。这里叙述的是欧洲很漂亮,所以应该用一般现在时,句子的主语
是第三人称单数,所以用 is。故将 was 改为 is。
第五处:考查形容词。wasn’t 后应该用形容词,very 副词,用来修饰形容词 nice。故将 nicely
改为 nice。
第六处:考查冠词。in a hurry 匆忙,固定搭配。故在 in 后面加 a。
第七处:考查连词。though 尽管。他的累发生在回来后,或者在回来的时候。when/as 当……
时候;after 在……之后。故将 Though 改为 When/As/After。
第八处:考查动词。suggest 当“建议”讲时,后面的宾语从句的谓语动词用“should+动词原
形”,should 可省略。故将 spent 改为 spend。
第九处:考查代词。根据前一句“So I suggest that you spend your holiday in a different way.”向你提建议,所以后句的主语应该是 you。故将 We 改为 You。
第十处: 考查固定搭配。had better+动词原形,这里的 visit 与前面的 travel 是并列的,所以
应删除 to。

Dear David,
I’m delighted to receive your letter in which you asked about our arrangements for the
World Reading Day.
What deserves to be mentioned most is the theme of the Reading day—Reading Chinese
Classics and Inheriting Chinese Culture.Obviously,its aim is to raise our awareness of passing on
traditional Chinese culture.
It’s widely acknowledged that reading benefits us in many ways.Not only can it broaden our
horizons but it also deepens our thoughts.Therefore,a series of activities,such as Reading Salon,
a Secondhand Book Exchange will take place on that day.
How I wish you could join us!
Yours,
Li Hua
