Paragraph 1:
What the old man said struck David. He suddenly realized that wealth wouldn't really mean much if one was already so old. What the old man really wanted was what he still enjoyed-his youth. It was the most valuable thing he had. He realized that he was still young and everything was possible for him. David looked at the old man again and this time he no longer admired him. He knew he still had chance to become rich. But the old man could never become young again.
Paragraph 2:
9
David stopped complaining about his life. Instead, he decided to make a change. Later he found work again. This time he worked hard and tried his best to learn new things in his free time. He even went to attend a course at a night school. Two years later, he found better work. And some years later, he started his own business. Finally, he became rich. But he knew that wealth wasn't the most important in his life. He wanted to live life to its fullest.

9
4.细节理解题。根据第一段的the Daily Mirror and the Daily Express usually impress newspapermen even more because they both sell about four million copies every day.可知,《每日镜报》和《每日快报》通常给新闻记者留下更深刻的印象,因为它们每天的销量都在400万份左右,所以,它因为比其它著名报纸有更大的销售量而给记者留下深刻印象,故选A。

The 3D digital model even included hundreds of sponges (海绵动物) that have gathered on the ship’s surface since it sank.(几十年前在加利福尼亚海岸沉没的一艘船最近进行了详细的重建。3D数字模型甚至包括了自沉船以来聚集在船体表面的数百海绵动物。)是全文的主题句,结合全文内容,可知这篇文章主要讲了三维模型重建沉船。故选C。
13.细节理解题。根据第三段Named American Heritage, the supply ship sank in Santa Monica Bay on May 4, 1995, and for decades its exact location was unknown. Researchers with the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) spotted a strange shape in that area in 2008. But it wasn’t until May 2018 that MBARI scientists identified its exact location and mapped the site in detail, showing what appeared to be a shipwreck (失事船只).(1995年5月4日,这艘名为“美国遗产”的补给船在圣莫尼卡湾沉没,数十年来,它的确切位置一直不为人知。2008年,蒙特里湾水族馆研究所的研究人员在该地区发现了一个奇怪的形状。但直到2018年5月,MBARI的科学家们才确定了它的确切位置,并详细地绘制了地图,显示出它似乎是一艘沉船)和第四段They sent remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and took photos of the damaged ship. Though it was covered with deep-sea sponges and other animals, the scientists were able to spot letters spelling out its name, confirming that the shipwreck was American Heritage.(他们派出了ROVs,并拍摄了受损船只的照片。尽管上面覆盖着深海海绵和其他动物,科学家们还是能够辨认出拼出它名字的字母,从而确认这艘沉船是“美国遗产”。)由此可知,事件发生的正确顺序是:一艘船在圣莫尼卡湾沉没→在这个地区发现了一些奇怪的东西→科学家们试图确定失事船只的位置→ROVs被派到水下拍照→这艘船的身份得到确认。故选B。
14.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段As one of the MBARI scientists who found American Heritage, chief ROV pilot Knute Brekke had worked on the ship before. And he was on duty with the diving company American Pacific Marine — the owner of American Heritage — the night the ship began taking in water and eventually sank.(作为发现美国遗产的MBARI科学家之一,ROV的首席飞行员Knute Brekke曾在这艘船上工作过。在船开始进水并最终沉没的那个晚上,他正在美国太平洋海洋公司工作,该公司是“美国遗产”的所有者。)由此推断出,Knute Brekke很熟悉那艘沉船。故选A。
15.推理判断题。根据最后一段Kim Fulton-Bennett说的话The model is not complete, as floating ropes and poor visibility kept the pilots from getting too close to the wreck. But the 3D reconstruction is detailed enough to show that American Heritage is now home to thousands of sponges. Shipwrecks often turn into the shelter for diverse communities of ocean
9
life.(该模型并不完整,因为漂浮的绳索和较差的能见度使飞行员无法太接近失事船只。但3D重建的细节足以表明,“美国遗产”现在是成千上万海绵动物的家园。沉船往往会成为各种海洋生物群落的避难所。)由此推断出,Kim Fulton-Bennett对3D模型的态度是客观的。故选D。
二.七选五
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了许多科学家认为吃糖会上瘾,并引发疾病。为此,人们应该减少摄入糖分,一些学校开始用水果代替甜点,或者步行道让学生们加强锻炼。
16.根据下文In this way, it is in fact an addictive drug, one that doctors suggest we all cut downon.可知,这里强调以这种方式,糖会使我们门上瘾,医生也建议我们要减少食用。因此横线处应该是说明糖为什么会使人上瘾。故B项(Then the good feeling goes away, leaving us wanting more)然后这种感觉消失,我们需要更多糖分。引出下文,符合语境。故正确答案为B。

18.根据上文“Early humans often had very little food, so our bodies learned to be very efficient in storing sugar as fat. In this way, we had energy stored for when there was no food.”可知,早期人类通常很少有食物,所以我们的身体学会了非常有效地将糖储存为脂肪。这样,我们就可以在没有食物的时候储存能量。这是在说明糖分的好处,紧接着Bu today转折,意味着横线处是强调糖分摄入过分的害处。故D(So the very thing that once saved us, may now be killing us.)曾经救过我们的东西现在可能正在致我们于死地,承上启下,符合语境。故选D。
19.根据上文“It’s obvious that we need to eat less sugar.”和下文 “From breakfast cereals to after-dinner desserts, our foods are increasingly filled with it”可知,我们需要减少糖的食用,但是事实上从早餐到晚餐我们的食物中含有大量的糖。也就是说橫线处是对我们不得不吃糖这一事实的说明。故F项(The trouble is, in today's world, it's extremely difficult to avoid),问题是,在当今世界,这是极难避免的,承上启下,符合语境。故选F。
20.根据上文“But there are those who are fighting back against sugar”可知,有些人已经开始与糖分做斗争,故下文应列举具体斗争的方法。故G项(Many schools are replacing sugary desserts with healthier options like fruit.)许多学校正在选用更健康的食物例如水果代替含糖甜点,承上启下,符合题意。故选G。

【分析】
这是一篇读后续写作文。通过阅读所给文章可知,文章主要讲叙了大卫失业后看见了一位富人,和这位富裕的老人交谈后,大卫决定做出改变。他学习新东西,慢慢地开始了自己的事业,然后变得富有了的故事。
【详解】
续写部分分为两段,第一段开头是:老人的话打动了大卫。后文应当描写他意识到自己还年轻,一切对他来说都是可能的。而老人,再也不能年轻了。第二段开头是:大卫不再抱怨他的生活。后文应当描写大卫决定做出改变。他学习新东西,慢慢地开始了自己的事业,然后变得富有了。但他知道财富不是他生命中最重要的,他想过上充实的生活。注意使用划线的提示词语。
【点睛】
本文描写详略得当,使用了固定短语和高级句子。固定短语如:no longer ,make a change, tried his best to learn ,attend a course ,live life to its fullest。高级句子:What the
9
old man really wanted was what he still enjoyed-his youth. 该句使用了what引导的主语从句和表语从句;It was the most valuable thing he had.该句使用了that引导的定语从句,其中的that已经省略。
