Instagram（图片分享社交应用程序）is about to take its biggest step toward removing likes
from its platform. After months of testing an option to hide likes in select international markets, Instagram,
which is owned by Facebook（FB）, has already been testing hiding likes in seven other countries,
including Canada, Ireland and Australia. For years, likes have been central to how celebrities, brands,
politicians and everyday users experience Instagram and Facebook. It's a way of measuring popularity and
success. But in recent months, Instagram has been rethinking how likes contribute to making its platform more toxic. Now it's considering a change.
The total number of likes on posts — which appear as hearts on the app ——will disappear from
Instagram's main feed, profile pages and permalink（永久链接）pages. The owner of the account can still
see their own likes, but their followers won't know the count.
CNN Business previously spoke with users in countries with the test. The majority felt this move
would improve well-being on the app. Instagram is the most detrimental（不利的，有害的）social
networking app for young people's mental health, such as negatively impacting body image, according to
one study.
But other users and psychologists said hiding likes won't fix everything. The test doesn't address some
of the key ways that activity on Instagram can impact the well-being of users, including bullying, feeling
left out and thinking other people's lives are better than their own.
Renee Engeln, a psychology professor at Northwestern University, voiced his opinion that the biggest
impact of Instagram is the content and the exposure to this constant stream of perfected images is what
seems to hurt psychologically. Plus, users can still see their own likes ——and feel badly if their posts don't
perform well.
24．How do users experience Instagram in this passage?
A．By giving likes. B．By hiding likes.
C．By selecting platforms. D．By showing off talents.
25．The underlined word “toxic” in Paragraph 1 most probably means “ ”.
A．profitable B．poisonous
C．popular D．positive
26．What can we infer from the passage?
A．Instagram has affected youngsters' mental health.
B．The account owners won't know the count o£ likes.C．Instagram tested hiding likes in seven countries first.
D．The majority think Instagram has been a well-being app.
27．What could be the best title of the passage?
A．Instagram Misuses Likes
B．More People Are Against Likes
C．Likes Cause Mental Problems
D．Likes will Be Hidden on Instagram
He really did look like a tourist, with a camera around his neck and a bottle of sunscreen cream
sticking out of his bag. The fat man sat on the terrace （平台），sipping lemonade and pretending to look at
a tourism brochure. His sunglasses masked his eyes, but I knew he wasn't looking at the brochure: he hadn't
turned a page for the last ten minutes. As I brought him his dishes, he coughed up a "thank you" and looked
at me briefly. I tried not to stare at the tiny scar across his left eyebrow.
I walked back inside with my empty tray, shaking my head. He looked familiar, but I couldn't quite
place him. Then it hit me. The car accident. The mysterious stranger who helped me out of my crashed car,
just before it exploded. I rushed back to his table. He was gone.
I moved his saucer and found his tip, along with a card：I am deeply grateful to you. The night
o£ your car accident, I was on my way to rob a jewelry store. Saving your life brought things back in a
right way. I now live an honest life, thanks to you. God bless you! Mr. D．
I shivered（震颤）.The night of my car accident, I was heading for an interview in an illegal dance
club. Seeing human kindness through his heroic gesture turned my life around and brought faith back into
my life. I unfolded the tip he left. Among the singles was a grand （—千块）with a pen mark underlining
“In God We Trust.”I said a silent prayer for him and got back to work, smiling.
28．Why did the fat man look like a tourist?A．Because he used money not the same as the locals.
B．Because he carried what tourists usually have on.
C．Because he doesn't look like a native citizen.
D．Because he ordered strange food and drinks.
29．How did the writer knew the man didn't read the brochure?
A．He was drinking all the time.
B．He sat still with his sunglasses.
C．The page remained unturned.
D．He was staring at the writer.
30．What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．They kept in touch with each other since then.
B．The writer had been searching for the man.
C．The man became a rich man years later.
D．The writer didn't go to that interview.
31．What is their attitude towards each other?
A．Sympathetic. B．Grateful.
C．Worried. D．Trusty.
Living with your parents has its benefits at least when it comes to raising your kids― their
grandkids. Two new studies add to the evidence that grandmothers can enhance the survival of
grandchildren. That is, unless grandma's too old or lives too far away.
Humans are unusual in that the females live long past the age at which they stop having babies. Patrick Bergeron, professor of biology at Bishop's University in Quebec, said that most of the organisms will
reproduce up to their very last moment. This increase is often explained by the so-called "grandmother
effect". He thinks there could still be a benefit for women who stop having babies to increase their genetic
footprint by helping their daughters to raise larger families.
To explore the "grandmother effect" hypothesis （假设），Bergeron and his colleagues examined
nearly 200 years' worth of French-Canadian population records from the 17th and 18th centuries. "At the
time, life was tough. In some years, a third o£ the kids were not even making it to one year of age.” But the
researchers found that having a grandmother still alive was a definite plus."Families with grandmothers
alive were larger by about two and the survival of these grandchildren to age 15 was much improved."
This beneficial effect was only seen when the matriarchs （女家长）lived nearby. That role is tougher
for them to fulfills as they get older in poor health, which brings us to the second study. The researchers
found that the benefits associated with having a grandmother on hand depended on her age. Once manna hit
75, the grandchild survival benefit disappeared. This was almost certainly due to some form of indirect
resource competition, though, rather than wickedness （邪恶）on the part of co- resident grandmothers.
So a healthy grandma helps make for a healthy grandchild. If ',over the river and through the woods to
grandmother's house" isn't too long a trip.
32．What's the second paragraph mainly about?
A．Differences between animals and human beings.
B．Disadvantages of living with grandmas
C．Grandmothers' influence on the kids.
D．What's called“grandmother effect”.
33．How does the writer describe about the French-Canadian population more than three hundred years ago?
A．By voicing opinions. B．By providing facts.
C．By giving examples. D．By telling stories.
34．What can we infer from the second study?A．Society should be concerned about the old women.
B．Grandmothers over 75 years old are unwilling to help.
C．Some grandmothers may occupy kids' relative recourses.
D．Some grandmothers are getting wicked after they are old.
35．Which of the following can be the most helpful grandmother according to the passage?
A．A healthy one living nearby. ,
B．A healthy one living abroad.
C．An old one living in a nursing home.
D．A knowledgeable one living together.
三、七选五
Whether they’re for a teenager or not, all great stories have certain elements: they have
interesting characters we enjoy reading about; they show these characters in a world we can recognize and
understand.
36． The main character faces a problem, usually quite a serious one. The thing that most draws us to
reading the story is the way the character deals with the problem—whether the character gets the better of
it, or it gets the better of the character.
Characters in a book for young adults are generally young adults themselves. 37． On the one hand,
they’re not children anymore. They’re growing up and want to stretch their wings. On the other hand,
they’re not yet adults. They can’t do certain things, as they’re not yet able to do them or because the world
tells them that they can’t.To make things even more complicated, almost all young adults feel at some point that the whole
growing－up process is happening too quickly. 38．
This year, TEENS has selected seven of the ten books, nominated (提名) for the US 2017 National
Book Awards in the categories of Young People’s Literature.
Some stories are specifically written for teenagers or young adults, meaning that their authors are very
sensitive to the “in－between” nature of teenage life. They’re about problems that appear for young people
because of tensions between them and their parents and teachers, their siblings (兄弟姐妹)，or wider society.
Often, these problems are presented very seriously by writers. 39．
At the same time, fiction isn’t supposed to be just about the challenges people face in life, but also
about how people overcome those problems. 40． They discover something about themselves that they
never knew before, and which enables them to succeed. And the solution that they find opens the future up
to them, setting them on the path to adulthood.
A．They want to hold back a little and remain a child a little longer.
B．But that’s what young adults want in fiction; to be taken seriously.
C．When closing a good book, we feel we’ve learned something about ourselves.
D．These are stories that someone of any age could pick up and enjoy.
E.And they are in a challenging period of life.
F.But most importantly, great stories have a central drama.
G.To some degree, challenges bring out the best in characters.
四、语法填空
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1 个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。The Mid-Autumn Festival is also called the Moon Festival or the Moon cake Festival. It has a long
history 41． (date) back to the Tang Dynasty (618-907). It 42． (traditional) falls on the 15th day of the
43．(eight) month of the lunar calendar. Since ancient times, customs of the Mid-Autumn Festival
44． (include) appreciating the moon, eating moon cakes 45． drinking wine. The full moon on
Mid-Autumn night symbolizes family reunion 46． Chinese culture because the moon is round and the
47． (bright) of the year on this day. With the full moon hanging above in 48． sky, people 49． are far
away from their 50．(hometown) might miss families while looking at the beautiful moonlight.

通用户体验 Instagram 和 Facebook 的核心。由此可知，体验 Instagram 是通过点赞的形式，故选 A，
25．猜测词义题。根据划线词的上文“For years, likes have been central to how celebrities, brands,
politicians and everyday users experience Instagram and Facebook. It's a way of measuring popularity and success.”多年来，点赞一直是名人、品牌、政客和日常用户体验 Instagram 和 Facebook 的核心重点。
点赞是衡量受欢迎程度和成功的一种方法。接着用转折连词 but 引出下文 “But in recent months,
Instagram has been rethinking how likes contribute to making its platform more toxic. ”可知，最近几个月，
Instagram 一直在反思“点赞”是如何让自己的平台变得更“toxic”。But 表示与前文相反的意思。可知，
前文叙述“点赞”是一种有用方法，那“toxic”是与之相反的，不好的。再结合“Instagram is about to take
its biggest step toward removing likes from its platform..” Instagram 即将迈出最大的一步，从它的平台
上去除点赞。可推断出，去除点赞可能是因为它的不好的一面。分析选项 A. profitable 有利可图的；
B. poisonous 有毒的；C. popular 受欢迎的；D. positive 积极的。可知 A、C 和 D 都是好的一面，只有
B 项是不好的。由此推断出“toxic”是有毒的。
26．推理判断题。根据第三段“The majority felt this move would improve well-being on the app. Instagram
is the most detrimental（不利的，有害的）social networking app for young people's mental health, such as
negatively impacting body image, according to one study.” 大多数认为此举将提高 app 的健康。一项
研究显示，Instagram 是对年轻人心理健康最有害的社交网络应用，比如对身体形象产生负面影响。
由此可推断出 Instagram 影响了青少年的心理健康。故选 A。
27．主旨大意题。本文第一段叙述了 Instagram 即将迈出最大的一步，从它的平台上移除“点赞”。几
个月来 Instagram 一直在尝试在一些国际市场隐藏“点赞”功能。因为“点赞”平台变得更“有毒”的。接
着下文具体分析了“点赞”造成的不好的影响，从而正要隐藏“点赞”。文章分析“点赞”带来的不好的影
响，所以要在 Instagram 隐藏“点赞”功能。因此 D 项是最最佳题目。故选 D。

在阅读中我们经常会考查猜测词义题。事实上，阅读材料中的每个词与它前后的词语或句子甚至段
落都有联系。运用逻辑推理猜测词义是使用最广考查最多也最易失分的猜词方式，这要求考生具备
整合分散、复杂信息的能力，充分利用上下文（各种已知信息）并结合具体的语境推测、判断某些
词或短语的词义。例如第 2 小题词意猜测题。根据划线词的上文“For years, likes have been central to how
celebrities, brands, politicians and everyday users experience Instagram and Facebook. It's a way of
measuring popularity and success.”多年来，点赞一直是名人、品牌、政客和日常用户体验 Instagram
和 Facebook 的核心重点。点赞是衡量受欢迎程度和成功的一种方法。接着用转折连词 but 引出下文

结合“Instagram is about to take its biggest step toward removing likes from its platform..” Instagram 即将
迈出最大的一步，从它的平台上去除点赞。可推断出，去除点赞可能是因为它的不好的一面。分析
选项 A. profitable 有利可图的；B. poisonous 有毒的；C. popular 受欢迎的；D. positive 积极的。可知
A、C 和 D 都是好的一面，只有 B 项是不好的。由此推断出“toxic”是有毒的。

本文为议论文。文章论述了什么是“祖母效应”，以及“祖母效应”对子孙辈的好处。
32．主旨大意题。分析第二段的内容可知，本段主要叙述了人类的不同寻常之处在于，雌性的寿命
远远超过了停止生育的年龄。大多数生物会一直繁殖到生命的最后一刻。Patrick Bergeron，魁北克
Bishop 大学的生物学教授说。生育后寿命的延长通常可以用“祖母效应”来解释。他认为，对于那些
停止生育的女性仍然可以通过帮助女儿组建更大的家庭来增加她们的基因足迹。由此可知，本段主
要对于什么是“祖母效应”进行了解释和说明。故本题选 D。
33．推理判断题。第三段 Bergeron and his colleagues examined nearly 200 years' worth of
French-Canadian population records from the 17th and 18th centuries. "At the time, life was tough. In some
years, a third of the kids were not even making it to one year of age.” But the researchers found that having
a grandmother still alive was a definite plus. "Families with grandmothers alive were larger by about two
and the survival of these grandchildren to age 15 was much improved." Brgeron 和他的同事研究了 17 和
18 世纪(三百多年前)近 200 年的法裔加拿大人口记录。当时的生活很艰难。那些年里三分之一的孩
子甚至活不到一岁。但研究人员发现，有一位仍然健在的祖母无疑是一个优势。“有祖母的家庭可能
要多活两岁左右，这些孙辈活到 15 岁的几率大大提高”由此可知，本段以三百年前的法裔加拿大人
的事实（具体的数据）为依据说明有祖母的好处。故选 B 。
34．推理判断题。根据第四段... The researchers found that the benefits associated with having a
grandmother on hand depended on her age. Once manna hit 75, the grandchild survival benefit disappeared.
This was almost certainly due to some form of indirect resource competition, ... 研究人员发现，有祖母在
身边的好处取决于她的年龄，一旦祖母到了 75 岁，孙辈的生存福利就消失了。 这几乎可以肯定是
由于某种形式的间接资源竞争。由此可推断出，当祖母老了，有些祖母可能会占用孩子相关的资源。
分析选项可知 C 项符合题意，故选 C。
35．推理判断题。根据最后一段 So a healthy grandma helps make for a healthy grandchild. If ',over the
river and through the woods to grandmother's house" isn't too long a trip.”所以一个健康的奶奶有助于一
个健康的孙子。如果“过河穿过树林到外婆家”不是一次很长的旅行。文事的“过河穿过树林到外婆家”意味着离外婆家不远。由以上的内容可推断出，一个健康的且住在附近不远的祖母对于一个健康的
孙子来说很有帮助。故选 A。

这是一篇说明文。作者主要分析了优秀小说的特点，着重分析了写给年轻人的小说。
36．空格位于段首。第一段讲了好的故事都共有的两个因素，空后主要讲了小说中的主人公通常都

这段主要谈的是小说的情节。选项 F（最重要的是，好的故事都有一个中心戏剧）与这段中描述的
情节相吻合，故选 F。
37．空格位于段中。根据后面的“On the one hand, they’re not children anymore. They’re growing up and
want to stretch their wings. On the other hand，they’re not yet adults. They can’t do certain things, as
they’re not yet able to do them or because the world tells them that they can’t（一方面，他们不再是孩子
了。他们想长大，展翅飞翔。另一方面，他们还不是成人。有些事情他们不能做，因为他们还做不
到或者因为周边的世界告诉他们不可以这样做）”可以看出，这个时候的年轻人有着非常矛盾的心理
感受。选项 E（他们处在一个很有挑战性的人生阶段）与这段内容吻合。并且选项 E 中的 They 与上
句中的 young adults 形成指代关系，与下句中的 they 也相呼应。故选 E。
38．空格位于段尾。空格前一句句意为：让事情更复杂的是，几乎所有的年轻人都会在某个阶段感
觉整个成长过程发生得太快了，所以他们希望时光能倒回一点，让他们再当一段时间的小孩子。选项 A（他们希望时光能倒回一点，让他们再当一段时间的小孩子）符合上下文逻辑关系。故选 A。
39．空格位于段尾。空格前一句句意为：作者通常会很认真地呈现这些问题，而 B 项（但是这正是
年轻人在小说中想要看到的---被认真对待）能很好地承接上文，并且选项 B 中的 seriously 与上句中
的 seriously 完美呼应。故选 B。
40．空格位于段中。空格上一句句意为：同时，小说不只是要写人们生活中遇到的挑战，还要写人
们如何克服这些问题。选项 G（在某种程度上，挑战能激发人物最优秀的品质）与上文能很好衔接，
选项 G 中的 challenges 与上句中的 challenges 完美呼应，其中的 bring out 与下文中的 discover 也是很
好的呼应。故选 G。

七选五题目主要考查学生综合的英语逻辑思维能力。一篇好的短文，不仅在内容上要前后一致，而
且还要语篇结构清晰，上下文逻辑意义严谨。内容的前后一致体现在段内及语篇内话题的自然过渡。
语篇结构主要体现为：文章是总分结构，还是按时间或空间顺序发展的，还是辩证三段论的编排的。
逻辑意义的严谨最主要的可以通过代词、连词和副词等形式来体现。例如本题中第一个空格位于段
首，通过篇章结构可以确定这是本段落主旨句。然后根据第二段主要描写故事情节可选出正确答案。
第二题、第四题、第五题都可以依据上下句间的关键词呼应解题。第三题主要依据上下句逻辑关系
解题。每题具体解题步骤见详情。这些原则做题时比内容一致性更容易发现，准确度也更高，因为
它们体现的是语言间的逻辑关系。

52．Last weekend, I fixed up a wooden flower shelf for my family when Dad was away on business, which
was really a rewarding experience.
On Sunday afternoon, I was reading my favorite book when the doorbell rang. It was a package
delivered to Mum. After thanking the courier, I helped Mum carry it in. Mum suggested leaving the work
to Dad. But I decided to do it myself. Immediately, I opened the package. Inside, there were some wooden
boards, iron parts, and an instruction manual. Having read the manual carefully, I got down to work. With a
screwdriver, I fixed the frame first, and then put the boards on it piece by piece. After two hours of hard
work, a lovely flower shelf appeared in front of my eyes. Mum and I were both pleased and we started
putting potted plants onto it.
When Dad came back, hearing it was I who had assembled the flower shelf, he, with a broad smile,
gave me a thumbs-up. At that moment, my feeling of content and pride was beyond description.
Though I am a busy student, I still can do something for my family.【解析】
这是一篇看图写作，一共四幅图。一般说来，看图写话中的汉语提示往往给定了有关的时间、地点、
人物等相关的信息，有的还规定了文章所采用的体裁，如使用书信、留言、日记等。因此，在审题
时我们一定要注意所给的汉语提示。
第一步，认真阅读汉语提示和图片，把握中心。
本文根据汉语提示可知，是写一篇英文周记，记录你在上周末爸爸出差期间，为家里拼搭花架的经
历。这是文章要表达的中心。
第二步，初步构思，考虑用词、短语、句型和时态。
讲述上周末自己做的事，确定时态是过去时、第一人称。之后构思一个基本的框架，并考虑使用恰
当的词语、短语和句型，以充分地表达文章的内容。
第三步，连词成句，然后再连句成文。
运用适当的单词或短语正确表达各图的意思。然后再将各图的单个句子串连起来。串连时，要注意
使用适当的连接词语或过渡性语句，不至于让读者觉得文章中出现跳跃现象，更使上下文更为紧凑、
自然。
第四部，反复审核，修改错误。
一篇文章写好后，应进行检查，看短文中是否有错，如拼写、用词、时态、语态及表达方面的错误。
第五部，宜详则详，该略则略。
对于一些细节方面的内容，如果是文章必不可少的，在写作过程中是不可将其忽略的。如果是可有
可无的细节，则可视具体情况进行增删。据此，我们在读图时一定要注意阅读各图中的一些细节内
容，看其是否影响文章的内容。
【亮点说明】
本文是一篇看图作文。文章内容符合图画所表达的含义，语句精炼，文中使用高级句子。I fixed
up a wooden flower shelf for my family when Dad was away on business, which was really a rewarding
experience.句中运用 when 引导的时间状语从句和 which 引导的非限制性定语从句；I was reading my favorite book when the doorbell rang.固定句式 be doing...when...；Having read the manual carefully, I got
