A

提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。
I was four, playing outside in the humid Kentucky air. I saw my grandfather’s truck and thought,

ever seen!” Sometimes I think adults don’t stop to see things ___4___ a child’s eyes. He could have
blamed me. Instead, he lifted my little soul.
【答案】1. spied
2. looking 3. prettiest
4. through
【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者小时候和爷爷的故事。
【1 题详解】
考查时态。句意：然后我看到了一些油漆。全文时态都是一般过去时态，动词应使用一般过
去式。故填 spied。
【2 题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：完成我的杰作后我就来到屋顶，这时爷爷走过来，看着他的卡车，
十分惊讶。分析句子结构可知，look at his truck 作 Granddad 的定语，look 与 Granddad 之间是
主动关系，应使用现在分词形式。故填 looking。
【3 题详解】
考查形容词比较等级。句意：Angela，那是我见过的最漂亮的卡车。“the +形容词最高级+可
数名词+that I’ve seen/heard/known”意为“我见过的/听过的/知道的最……的……”,是形容词
最高级的常见用法。故填 prettiest。【4 题详解】
考查介词。句意：有时，我觉得成年人应该通过孩子的目光去看待事物。结合句意，后面的
短语“a child’s eyes”是用来说明“see things”的方式，即“通过孩子的双眼看待事物”。故填
through。
B
阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写 1 个适当的单词，在给出
提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。
How do you fight a coral-killing starfish? With a starfish-killing robot, of course. In Australia,
researchers ___5___(test) a robot that kills starfish. Specifically, the robot targets a large starfish
___6___(call) the crown-of-thorns(长棘海星). The animal gets its name from its sharp, poisonous
spines(刺). The robot uses cameras to search the seafloor for the starfish. Then it swims close to the
animal and uses an extendable arm to inject it with poison. Soon, it is hoped ___7___ scientists can put
the robot to work to protect the Great Barrier Reef. Then the starfish won’t seem so tough anymore.
【答案】5. are testing
6. called 7. that
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了澳大利亚人用机器人对付海星，以保护当地的珊瑚礁。
【5 题详解】
考查时态。句意：在澳大利亚，人们正试验用一种机器人来消灭海星。这是一篇介绍性的文
章，测试机器人的行动是当下正在进行的，应使用现在进行时态。故填 are testing。
【6 题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：特别的是，机器人的目标是一种名为长棘海星的大型海星。分析句
子结构可知，call the crown-of-thorns 是 starfish 的定语，starfsh 与 call 之间是被动关系，应使
用过去分词形式。故填 called。
【7 题详解】
考查主语从句。句意：科学家有望不久之后将这种机器人用于保护大堡礁的工作中。分析句
子可知，it 是形式主语，真正的主语是从句“scientists can put the robot to work to protect the Great
Barrier Reef.”，句意完整，成分齐全，that 引导主语从句，无词义，不做成分，“it+be 动词+
分词+that+从句”是常见句型。故填 that。
C阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写 1 个适当的单词，在给出
提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。
Zoo Awareness Day is a day ___8___ people question the place and value of zoos in the
twenty-first century. It is organized by the Captive Animals’ Protection Society, which says zoos are
mainly for tourism rather than protecting animals. Even though many zoos promote ___9___(they) as
places of education, conservation and research, they are really just a tourist attraction. Zoo Awareness
Day is to make people aware that animals in zoos suffer from physical and psychological problems
because they are in cages. The protection of ___10___(nature) habitats is the only way to prevent
further species decline.
【答案】8. when
9. themselves
10. natural
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了“Zoo Awareness Day”，提醒人们保护动物。
【8 题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：动物园宣传日是处于二十一世纪的人们可以质问动物园地位和价值的
日子。分析句子可知，a day 是先行词，后句结构完整，不缺主语宾语，结合先行词的属性，
考虑表时间的关系副词。故填 when。
【9 题详解】
考查代词。即使很多动物园都标榜自身为集教育、保护和研究于一体的地方，但实际上它们
只是旅游景点而已。分析句子可知，这里的 they 作 promote 的宾语，就是指动物园自己，应
使用反身代词。故填 themselves。
【10 题详解】
考查形容词。句意：对自然栖息地的保护是避免物种进一步减少唯一的方法。这里的 nature
用来修饰名词 habitats，应使用形容词。故填 natural。

BJohn Harrison has an enviable job in most people’s opinion. He’s the official taster for Dreyer’s
Grand Ice Cream, one of the best-selling ice-cream brands in the U.S.A. On an average day, Harrison
has to sample sixty ice creams at the Dreyer’s headquarters. When he isn’t doing that, he travels all
over the country, buying Dreyer’s ice cream in supermarkets so that he can carry out spot checks for
appearance and flavor. But, no matter how wonderful this job may sound, it is actually quite tough. It’s
difficult work, requiring discipline, selflessness, and thorough preparation.
Before tasting a sample, Harrison uses his eyes first. If the ice cream doesn’t look attractive, he
skips it. Then, he uses a gold spoon instead of one made of wood, plastic, or other metals. This is
because regular spoons leave an aftertaste that can dull the taste buds(味蕾). In addition, the
temperature of the ice cream may also influence the taster’s taste buds.
When Harrison samples ice cream, he first takes only a small bite of the ice cream, swishes it
around in his mouth to introduce it to each of his taste buds, lightly licks his lips, and then gently
breathes in so as to bring the smell up through the back of his mouth to his nose. With each step, he
carefully sizes up whether the ice cream conveys the ideal balance between dairy sweetness and the
flavor of the added ingredients. And last of all, no matter what the ice cream tastes like, he spits(吐) it
out, since a full stomach makes for a dull palate(迟钝的味觉).
For Harrison, keeping a sharp palate means no onions, garlic, or cayenne pepper. He also doesn’t
have any coffee or tea, since these block the taste buds. But to him, this is just a small price to pay for
what he calls “the world’s best job” .
Harrison’s family has been in the ice-cream business for four generations, and Harrison himself
has spent almost his whole life in it as well. Yet, he has never lost his love of the cold, creamy
sweetness. He orders ice cream in restaurants for dessert, even when he’s not at work. On these
occasions, he swallows the ice cream, taking in about a liter a week. Though he has gained some
weight over the years he’s been with Dreyer’s, he couldn’t care less. “Who would trust a skinny
ice-cream taster?” he jokes.
34. What is forbidden in Harrison’s job?
A. Doing shopping. B. Eating the ice cream.
C. Using gold spoons. D. Skipping the ice scream.
35. What can we learn about Harrison?
A. He learned his work skills from his family.B. His job affects his appetite for the ice cream.
C. He is willing to give up something for his job.
D. He has to gain some weight to meet the need of work.
36. What does Harrison think of his job?
A. Creative. B. Ordinary.
C. High-paying. D. Proud.
37. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To describe Harrison’s job and how he does it.
B. To analyze the reasons why Harrison chose his job.
C. To make suggestions on how to apply for popular careers.
D. To introduce the advantages of working for a best-selling brand.
【答案】34. B 35. C 36. D 37. A
【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了 John Harrison 的令人羡慕的工作——冰淇淋试味，这一职业其
实并不像人们想象的那么美好，背后也需要不少付出。
【34 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“And last of all, no matter what the ice cream tastes like, he
spits(吐) it out, since a full stomach makes for a dull palate(迟钝的味觉).”可知，试味结束后
Harrison 是不能吃掉冰淇淋的，必须要吐掉以避免饱腹感对味觉的影响。故选 B 项。
【35 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“But to him, this is just a small price to pay for what he calls
“the world’s best job” .”可知，尽管为了保持味觉敏锐日常生活中需要忌口，但 Harrison 仍然
觉得这份工作无与伦比，作出一些牺牲也可以接受。故选 C 项。
【36 题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的 But to him, this is just a small price to pay for what
he calls “the world’s best job” .并结合最后两段来看，Harrison 喜爱自己的工作也将
毕生精力投入其中，对于这份工作他是引以为傲的。故选 D 项。
【37 题详解】
推理判断题。文章围绕着 Harrison 冰淇淋试味这项工作展开，详细描述了工作内容，旨在让读者对这一职业有所了解。故选 A 项。
【点睛】写作意图考题的主要形式分为考查整篇文章的写作目的和考查某处细节的写作意图。
不同的文章写作目的也不尽相同，通常可以分为这么三种：1.常见于故事类的文章：讲述一段
有趣或不同寻常的经历。2.常见于广告类的文章：推销一种产品或服务；吸引游客/读者/观众
等。3.常见于科普类、新闻报道类、文化类或社会类的文章：向读者普及一些信息；报道某人
某事；简单介绍某人某事。这类题目主观性较强的阅读理解需要考生具备对事物进行归纳分
类的能力，在获取信息事实后，才能将已知细节加以分析，从而得出合理的判断。本文属于
第三种类型，主要内容就是冰淇淋试味员 Harrison 和他的工作内容，其意图就是向读者介绍
冰淇淋试味员这份职业和工作内容，提问写作意图的第四小题中，A 选项是最贴合的，从而确
定答案。
C
In 2012, James Cameron, creator of Avatar and Titanic, became the first person to reach the
Challenger Deep. When he arrived at the deepest spot on Earth at 7 miles below sea level, he spent
hours mapping the region and taking photos and samples.
“As human beings, we’re drawn to absolutes—the deepest, the highest, the coldest, the farthest,”
he says. “And as a storyteller and curious monkey, I just wanted to see what was there.” The answer is
obvious—plastic and more. “Our so-called civilization is using the ocean as its toilet,” Cameron says.
“Unless this changes, ocean ecosystems are going to continue their rapid collapse.”
Despite decades of environmental studies, the impact of plastic and other forms of pollution on
oceans are not entirely understood. Initial studies appear to indicate that ingesting(摄取) them—either
directly or indirectly—could cause disease. Plastics can also release poisonous substances into the
water, which could potentially impact animal populations.
But plastic is just one of the problems facing oceans that have yet to be fully understood. “Plastic
waste in the ocean is horrifying but is only the most obvious of our many deadly waste streams, which
include carbon that’s heating the atmosphere and making the ocean acidic, and the run-off nutrients
from all the world’s agriculture, which is causing anoxic(缺氧的) dead zones the size of countries,”
Cameron says.
Oceans, like the rest of the world, are impacted by the burning of fossil fuels and the release of
greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide—about 30 percent of which is absorbed by the sea. This
absorption causes ocean acidification, where the pH level is altered to become more acidic. As a result, it’s harder for some creatures to form shells and skeletons and countless species at the base of the food
web can struggle to survive, which, scientists say, has the potential to cause huge disruptions to entire
ecosystems. Indeed, ocean acidification is thought to have played an important role in Earth’s
worst-ever mass extinction event 252 million years ago.
The effect of climate change on the world’s oceans will likely worsen in coming decades. Last
June, scientists announced carbon dioxide levels had reached the highest levels since human records
began. The last time carbon dioxide levels were this high was during the Pliocene era, between 3 and 5
million years ago, when global temperatures were about 4 degrees Celsius warmer than they are today.
Current climate models suggest that if greenhouse gas emissions continue on their current trend, we
may be on course to see 4 degrees of warming by 2100.
As a result, understanding the role oceans have on global systems is becoming more and more
important.
38. What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?
A. The author’s feelings to the ocean. B. Cameron’s movies and remarks.
C. The author’s discoveries under the sea. D. Cameron’s observation and concern.
39. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Several countries are suffering from anoxic dead zones.
B. More concern should have been given to the pollution on oceans.
C. Plastic is supposed to be the most serious environmental problem.
D. Ocean acidification removes the nutrients from agricultural products.
40. What does the underlined word “disruptions” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Decreases. B. Destruction.
C. Diseases. D. Discrimination.
41. Why does the author mention the mass extinction event 252 million years ago?
A. To call on people to protect sea animals.
B. To compare current situations with the past.
C. To explain how serious the ocean problem is.
D. To prove pollution to be the cause of acidification.
【答案】38. D 39. B 40. B 41. C
【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章由詹姆斯·卡梅隆的一次潜航经历引入，从气候变化、环境污染等不
同方面描述了海洋生态系统正在遭受的巨大破坏，告诫人们提高对海洋环境的重视。

As we prepare learners with the skills needed for the 21st century, there is a greater desire to
further integrate technology into our classrooms. Whether it’s a K-12 or college classroom, it’s rare to
find an environment that does not integrate technology in some form or another. In some cases, online
learning has replaced the physical classroom altogether. As educators, we owe it to ourselves and our
students to use these benefits. However, while technology offers significant advantages, simply
integrating it as an alternative source of delivery or as another means for students to demonstrate their
comprehension is not an effective practice.
We must remind ourselves that any form of learning technology should also be guided. These resources are just instruments and require high-quality guided practice from instructors. These
instruments, combined with guidance, can afford good instruction, practice and motivation. While
technology can positively impact learning outcomes, it may be even more effective for some students
if it’s instructor-led and integrated into a well-designed curriculum(课程).
Technology is rapidly changing the educational environment and challenging students to adapt
accordingly. It can frustrate students of different generations struggling to learn how to use a learning
platform in addition to picking up the actual subject. Some may wonder, “Why should I waste time
learning how to create a podcast(播客) when I could simply write the paper?”
It’s a reasonable question. We must not assume students who were raised using technology are
always comfortable learning with these tools. A study found that because of tools some students may
not have experience using, they may need more direction on how to apply these tools. Students may
struggle if an instructor neglects to teach the conceptual basis of the tools. Technology may mean little
without appropriate objectives and goals for its use, structures for its application, and trained
deliverers.
Educators are also tasked with providing students the skills they need to flourish in a highly
competitive and technologically-based workplace. Many of the skills obtained through online classes
are valuable professional skills. Students taught how to use multiple learning technologies effectively
have a competitive advantage over those who are simply using technology as a method of delivery in
the online classroom. Regardless of the subjects we teach, integrating technology gives our students
the opportunity to not only learn the content, but also to develop skills useful beyond our classrooms.
Technology, when integrated and balanced appropriately with the curriculum and with student needs,
can make us more effective as educators.
42. What is important to the learning technology?
A. Instruction and revision. B. Comprehension and application.
C. Guidance and arrangements. D. Diversity and flexibility.
43. According to the passage, what should an educator do?
A. Arrange online assignment for students.
B. Help students master online technology.
C. Prepare students with rules in the workplace.
D. Notify students of the value of the learning tool.44. What’s the author’s attitude toward learning technology?
A. Critical. B. Unconcerned.
C. Wait-and-see. D. Approving.
45. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Does Technology Boost Educational Effectiveness?
B. Is the Learning Technology a Tool or an Opportunity?
C. Can Technology Put an End to Traditional Classrooms?
D. Does the Learning Skill Outweigh the Learning Content?
【答案】42. C 43. B 44. D 45. A

第二节(共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，共 10 分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有
两项为多余选项。
The Internet is the largest library in the history of the world and a great resource for anyone
seeking information. ___46___ In recent years, plagiarism from online sources has become a serious
problem, especially among students.
Original written work and information are protected by copyright laws. Therefore, when you use
information you find while doing research, you should always give credit to the person that produced
it. To plagiarize is to use ideas that are not your own without giving credit to the original source, or to
claim that someone else’s ideas are your own. This is a dishonest practice.
Internet-related plagiarism has become such a problem. ___47___ There are thousands of
resources for students who wish only to copy or cheat. However, the Internet also makes it easier for
educators to check for plagiarism. Often a simple Internet search for a quote will be enough to expose
copying. ___48___ Because copying and pasting(粘贴) is so easy, it is becoming more and more
common for well-meaning students to mix up source material with their original ideas. While
unintended plagiarism usually happens innocently, it is still a mistake.
___49___ Usually, the first step of researching is to gather information. You’d better keep a
computer document named “References” where you can keep useful information you search on the
Internet. Copy and paste the material directly from the document. When you print out parts of the
article from the document, print the first page of the article. ___50___ These will help you remember
the source of the information. Then print pages that have the information you need. After you finish
your assignment, in the same way that you review your work for clarity and mistakes, you need to
check that you have matched the quoted information with the correct source. Following these tips, you
will avoid mixing up source material with your ideas.
A. It lists details like the name of writer and publication.
B. But doing research on the Internet is not without its risks.
C. This is because it is so easy to find and copy information online.
D. Some educators are more concerned about unintended plagiarism.E. In addition to dishonesty, plagiarism is a lost opportunity for students.
F. To avoid unintended plagiarizing, managing your sources becomes important.
G. If you use ideas from other writers without quoting from the original work, you’re plagiarizing.

【答案】Dear Jim
I’m so glad that you’re interested in Chinese poetry! The poem you read was written by Li Bai,
one of the greatest poets of the Tang Dynasty. It describes a scene when the poet saw off his friend at
Yellow Crane Tower for his journey to Yangzhou. It was the third month by lunar calendar, when all
the flowers were in full bloom in spring. What a vivid picture of the beautiful spring scenery! This is
the power of Chinese poetry.
I believe you will have a further understanding after you read more Chinese poems.
It is spring right now. Just as described in the poem there are so many places in China that deserve
a visit. For example, the city of Wuhan, where Yellow Crane Tower is located, is exactly a place suitable for a spring tour. As the capital city of Hubei Province in central China, Wuhan is in its most
beautiful season now. Blooming flowers and the countless historical sites are indeed a feast to the eye!
I hope we can tour the city together in the near future!
Yours,
Li Hua
