correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word ; for the other
blanks,use one -word that best fits each blank.
I used to joke that I spoke French like a three-year-old—until I met a French three-year-old and couldn't hold up
my end of the conversation. This was after a year of intense study, including at least two hours a day with
self-instruction software and weekend classes, followed by two weeks of an immersion program (沉浸式教学)at one
of the top language schools in France.
My failure was in fact quite unremarkable. Despite advertising claims, ___21___ (learn) a foreign language is a
challenging task for any adult. In the end, though, ___22___ turns out that spending a year .‘not learning” French may
have been the ___23___ (good) thing I could have done for my 57-year-old brain.
In the last few years, I was unable to hold a list of four grocery items in my mind. So to reassure ___24___ that
nothing was wrong, I took a cognitive (认知的)assessment just before tackling French. The results were anything
___25___ reassuring: I scored below average for my age group in nearly all of the categories, especially on the
composite memory (综合记忆)test and the visual memory test.
After a year of struggling with the language, I retook the cognitive assessment, and the results shocked me. My
scores had skyrocketed, ___26___ (place) me above average in 7 of 10 categories, and average in the other three.
Studying a language had been like drinking from a mental fountain of youth.
What might explain such an improvement? Researchers at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and
Northwestern University noted that the cognitive tasks ___27___ (involve) in language study—like working memory,
inductive reasoning (归纳推理),sound discrimination (识别) and task switching—map closely to (与……紧密相
关)the areas of the brain that are most associated with declines due to aging.
If my experience is any indication, you might be better off studying a language. Not only is that a far more useful
and enjoyable activity ___28___ an abstract brain game, but as a reward for your efforts, you can treat yourself
___29___ a trip abroad That's ___30___ I plan to spend the next year “not learning” Italian. Ciao!
【答案】21. learning
22. it 23. best
24. myself 25. but
26. placing
27. involved
28. than 29. to
30. why

My six-year-old granddaughter, Caitlynd and I stopped at Tim Horton’s shop for a blueberry cake. As we were
going out of the door,a young teenage boy was coming in.
This young man had no hair on the sides of his head and a set of blue spiked (竖起的)hair on top of it. One of his
nostrils (鼻孔) was pierced,and a ring ran through the hole and a chain went across his face and was attached to a
ring he was wearing in his ear. He held a skateboard under one arm and a basketball under the other.
Caitlynd, who was walking ahead of me, stopped at once when she saw the teenager. I thought he’d scared her
and she'd frozen on the spot.
I was wrong.
My granddaughter backed up against the door and opened it as wide as it would go. Now I was face to face with
the young man. I stepped aside and let him pass. His gracious response was a polite “Thank you very much,”.
On our way to the car,I praised Caitlynd for her manners in holding open the door for the young man. She
didn't seem to be troubled by his appearance but I wanted to make sure. If a grandmother s talk about freedom of
self-expression and allowing people their differences was suitable. I wanted to be ready.
As it turned out, the person who needed the talk was me.
The only thing Caitlynd noticed about the teenager, was the fact that his arms were full. "He would have a hard
time in opening the door. ”
I saw the partially shaved head, the set of spiked hair,the piercings and the chain. She saw a person carrying
something under each arm and heading toward a door.
In the future, I hope to get down on her level and raise my sights.

You are enrolled in a full-time school called “life”. Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn
lessons. You may like the lessons or hate them but you have designed them as part of your curriculum.
Why are you here? What is your purpose? Humans have sought to discover the meaning of life for a very long
time.
Each person has his or her own purpose and distinct path unique and separate from anyone else's. As you travel
your life path, you will be presented with numerous lessons that you will need to learn in order to fulfill that purpose.
The lessons you are presented with arc specific to you; learning these lessons is a key to discovering and fulfilling
the meaning and connection of your own life.
As you travel through your lifetime, you may encounter challenging lessons that others don’t have to face,
while others spend years struggling with challenges that you don’t need to deal with. You may never know why you
are blessed with a wonderful marriage while your friends suffer through bitter arguments and painful divorces, just as
you cannot be sure why you struggle financially while your peers enjoy abundance. The only thing you can count on
for certain is that you specifically need to learn; whether we choose to learn them or not is entirely up to you.
The challenge here, therefore,is to align ( 保持一致)yourself with your own unique path by learning
individual lessons. But, remember,don’t compare your path to the people around you and focus on the difference
between their lessons and yours. You need to remember that you will only be faced with lessons that you are capable
,
,
of learning and are specific to your own growth.
Our sense of fairness is the expectation of equity— the assumption that all things are equal and that justice will
always prevail. Life is not,in fact, fair, and you may indeed have a more difficult lift path than others around you,
deserved or not. Everyone's circumstances are unique, and everyone needs to handle his or her own circumstances
differently. If you want to move toward calm, you will be required to move out the comparing phrase of “it's not fair”.
Focusing on the unfairness of circumstances keeps you comparing yourself with others rather than appreciating your
own special uniqueness. You miss out on learning your individual lessons by distracting yourself with feeling of
bitterness and anger.
63. According to the passage, how can the meaning of your life be realized?
A. Having the same opinions as others. B. Taking the distinct path from others.
C. Learning the lessons presented to you. D. Doing the different things from others.
64. From the passage we can conclude ____.
A. everyone has his own track to follow
B. the same thing usually happens to the peers
C. a painful divorce must lie in financial problems
D. a wealthy man must have a wonderful marriage
65. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. All things are equal and justice will always prevail.
B. You should learn to appreciate your specific uniqueness.
C. One has to fix his mind on the unfairness of circumstances.
D. The teachers have designed the lessons as part of your curriculum in the life school.
66. Life is called a full-time school, because ____.
A. it is full of all lessons to learn B. you have plenty of time to learn lessons
C. you meet with specific lessons every day D. there are so many subjects for you to choose
【答案】63. C 64. A 65. B 66. C

一所学校,在这所学校里,我们每天都会有机会学习具体的课程,在这里找到人生的意义。
【63 题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段"The lessons you are presented with are specific to you; learning these lessons is a
key to discovering and fulfilling the meaning and connection of your own life"可知当你开始你的人生之旅时,你就
要面对很多的课程,而每个人所要面对的课程都是不同于他人的。要想实现你的目标,找到你人生的意
义,你就要学习这些有关人生的课程(learning these lessons)。故选 C。
【64 题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段 Each person has his or her own purpose and distinct path,unique and separate from
anyone else's.(每个人都有他或她自己的目标和独特的道路,独特和独立于任何人的。)可知每个人都会有
他自己独一无二的生活轨迹。故选 A。
【65 题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段 Focusing on the unfairness of circumstances keeps you comparing yourself with
others rather than appreciating your own special uniqueness.(关注环境的不公平会让你拿自己和别人比较,而不
是欣赏自己的独特之处。)可知你应该学会欣赏自己的独特之处,而不是把目光聚集在和别人的比较上。故
选 B。

【点睛】细节理解题解题方法
细节理解题属直接解答性问题,是阅读理解题中最简单 一种,多数属中低难度的题。但高考所占的比例
大,应特别引起注意。事实和细节题的命题特点是:对文章或某一段落中的一些特定细节或文章重要事实
的理解,一般包括直接理解题和语义转化题。直接理解题能在原文直接找到答案,而语义转化题则需要将
题目信息与原文信息加工或整理后才能得出结论。
做细节理解题具体方法与步骤如下:
1.略读材料,大概了解原文,掌握中心或主旨。经常有新技术对将来人们工作和生活不良影响的预测,但事
实证明结果并不是那样,我们有必要否定预测,以减少人们的恐惧。
2.按文章的体裁,作者写作的组织模式及有关的信息词。如 for example, first, second…等预测应该到何处寻
找自己所需要的事实。
3.将精力放在寻找你所需要的细节上。快速通篇跳读,全文扫视,找到细节出处,待找到含细节句子时,放
慢速度,仔细核对比较内容,直至找到答案。
如第四小题,根据文章第一段"Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn lessons.谈到每天你
都有机会去学习功课。以及第三段最后一句“The lessons you are presented with are specific to you”可知,生
活被成为一所全日制学校的原因每一天你都会有自己的具体内容。故选 C。

dogs processed words using the left side of their brains, just as humans do. They use the right side of their brains to
understand tone and pitch. ___68___ Meaningful words said in a neutral way did not have the same effect as the
same words said in an encouraging way.
Attila Andies was the lead researcher on the project. “Dog brains care about both what we say and how we say
it,” he said. ___69___ It’s because dogs have lived with people for a long time. Andies said he thinks other animals

Virginia Bookstore Finds the Secret to Success
A large bookstore in a small U. S. town has succeeded for many years by giving people a chance to buy a lot of
books for a low price.
The large and simple bookstore is in the small eastern town of Mount Crawford,Virginia.
The Green Valley Book Fair is made up of two large storage buildings totaling 2, 300 square meters.
Some customers like Zoe Dellinger have been buying books at the store for many years.
“I have been coming here since I was in my early 20s. The thrill of finding a new book is very serendipitous (机
缘巧合的) here because you can’t come and say Fm buying the new Nicholas Sparks book today.’ That’s not what
this place is about—this place is about finding wonderful treasures. ”
And those treasures are not costly.
“I found a wonderful book that I wanted. It was very expensive at the time—26 dollars was expensive for me to
purchase a new book. I found the book here for five dollars. I was so excited, so that has kept me coming back just to
see what treasures 1 11 find. ”
The Green Valley Book Fair has 500,000 new and old books about politics, religion, science,travel, cooking
and many other subjects.
Michele Branner is the manager of the store.
“My parents actually started this bookstore about 46 years ago. My dad collected old books and then decided
that he wanted to sell some of them. And it went so well that it’s just kind of evolved to what it is today. ”
The bookstore is only open six times a year for three weeks. About 25, 000 people visit during each period. The
store sells about $ 2 million worth of books every year.
“We buy our books at a fraction of retail (零售价的几分之一) and we can sell them for the prices that we do and
keep our overhead low. That’s why we don’t have any fancy buildings or anything like that.”
People have visited the store from many American states and from Kenya, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Russia.
Tom Whitlon is from the eastern city of Bristol, Connecticut.
“We have our whole family with us this time. So we said, ‘Oh you gotta see this book fair, ’ and so we brought
’em all here today. It meets every family’s need that likes to read. ”

这是一篇概要写作。
【详解】写作步骤
1)细读原文。首先要仔细阅读短文,掌握文章主旨。文章说明了弗吉尼亚州的一家书店多年来一直很成功。
顾客通过自己寻找书籍的奇珍异宝来购买书籍。这些书既便宜又种类繁多。绿谷书展每年开六次,但销量
很高。这个店主以低利润卖书。它吸引了许多来自不同地方的人。
2)弄清结构,归纳段意。概要写作是写全文概要,不是写某一部分的概要,或者就某些问题写出要点。
3)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。
4)在写作时要特别注意下面几点:
(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,至少对原文句
子做一些同义词替换,如果结构上也能有一些转换会更好。
(5)计算词数,看是否符合规定的词数要求。
【点睛】范文内容完整,语言规范,语篇连贯,词数适当。作者在范文中使用了较多高级表达方式,如 A
bookstore in Virginia has succeeded for many years.运用了现在完成时;Customers buy books through finding
wonderful treasures of books by themselves.运用了动名词做介词宾语。全文中没有中国式英语的句式,显示了

【答案】Dear manager,
I’m writing to tell you about the MP3 I bought last week from your company on the Internet, which was intended
for my good friend as a birthday gift.
When I opened the delivery, I was surprised to find the wrapping paper broken. What was worse, I find the MP3
doesn’t work, no matter how many measures I have taken.
With reference to my order No. 1314, there is no doubt that the MP3 you delivered really comes from your
company, whose poor quality made me very disappointed, and it is the poor MP3 that made me suffer a great
【
loss from it. Anyway, it cost me 200 yuan, which I saved for nearly half a year. To some extent, the broken MP3
has not only brought me great economic loss but also lessened my trust as a consumer.
As my friend’s birthday is drawing near, I am anxious to know whether a new MP3 can be redelivered as soon as
possible. Please take my case into deep consideration rather than turn a blind eye to my requirement. I would
appreciate it very much if much attention could be paid to my requirement!
Yours truly,
Tom
