The tough challenge of a six-month, 3,200-kilometer walk across the South Pole, in the long darkness of the Antarctic winter when temperatures can fall to -90℃, proved irresistible to the experienced British explorer Sir Ranulph Fiennes.
Fiennes’s hero, Captain Robert Falcon Scott, wrote “great God, this is an awful place” when he reached the South Pole a century ago, before freezing and starving to death with his team on the return journey.
That journey was made in summer. Nobody before has attempted to cross the pole in winter. In a statement, Fiennes said, “This will be my greatest challenge to date. We will stretch the limits of human endurance.”
However, Fiennes could not explain why anyone should consider such a venture, still less a man aged 68 who has survived cancer, heart surgery and the loss of most of the frozen fingertips on one hand. “It’s what I do,” he said, looking slightly puzzled at the question.
Fiennes, the world’s greatest living explorer, according to the Guinness Book of Records — was the first to cross the Antarctic continent unsupported; the first to cross both polar ice caps; and the first to travel across the globe from pole to pole.
Fiennes admitted his wife, Louise, and their six-year-old daughter were not thrilled. “But I’ve never done anything else; it’s how I earn my living. And you’re much more likely, statistically, to die on the roads than on the polar ice,” he said.
After training in the Swedish Arctic in a relatively balmy -40℃, Fiennes’ team will set sail from London on Dec. 6 on a South African research ship. The ice trek(长途跋涉) will begin on Mar. 21, the spring equinox(春分) that marks the official start of the polar winter, from the Russian base of Novolazareskaya. Fiennes and his five team members must then climb more than 3,000 meters on to the inland plateau, walk for several hundred kilometers using an ice tractor to pull all the supplies and equipment they need, descend another 3,000 meters and finally reach the Ross Sea. If they reach Captain Scott’s old base at McMurdo Sound by the spring equinox six months later, they will still have to wait for months until the sea ice backs off enough for their ship to collect them.
24. Fiennes is going on this expedition because__________.
A. it is something he always does as a career
B. he wishes to inspire his family
C. he wants to travel with his wife and daughter
D. he hopes to improve his health
25. The underlined word in Paragraph 7 probably means “__________.”
A. warm and pleasant B. cold and harsh
C. tough and unbearable D. agreeable and relaxing
26. According to the article, Fiennes’ expedition will__________.
A. begin at an Antarctic base of Sweden
B. involve climbing and going down a high plateau
C. start and finish exactly at the two spring equinoxes
D. finish in a few weeks after the ship arrives
27. Fiennes is attempting to cross the South Pole__________.
A. on the same route as Captain Scott’s
B. by himself during the winter months
C. by ice tractor for most of the trip
D. on foot during the worst trip
C
With more than two million videos on YouTube, cats are one of the most searched things on the Internet. A new exhibition called “How Cats Took Over The Internet” opened at the Museum of the Moving Image in New York. It looked at the history of how cats rose to Internet fame, and why people like them so much.
Almost half of all original YouTube videos are of people’s pets, and around 26 billion views are just for cats, making them the single most popular category. Some cats have become famous and earned millions of pounds after their owners posted their pictures online.
So how did cats become so popular?
Since the Internet became widely used in the 1990s, people have been sharing pictures of their cats via email. In 2005 one of YouTube’s co-founders Steve Chen posted a video of his cat called Pyjamas playing with a rope, making him the first person to upload a cat video to YouTube.
In 2007 Eric Nakagawa and Kari Unebasami started a website sharing funny pictures of cats. The site quickly became popular, and users were able to upload pictures of their cats with writing over the top. It now has over 100 million views a month and has created a whole new form of communication on the Internet.
Why cats? A scientific study has proved that looking at videos of cats can improve people’s mood. Assistant professor Jessica Gall Myrick from Indians University, America, asked 7,000 people how they felt before and after watching videos of cats. The results showed that people felt happier after watching videos of cats, and that they felt less anxious.
The Internet has also been responsible for creating a number of famous cats such as Grumpy Cat, Lil BUB and Maru. They have appeared on lots of TV shows, advertisements and film festivals, and even have their own brands. Lil BUB even has her own charity, and has raised around $130, 000 for pets with special
needs.
28. What’s true about cats according to the text?
A. Their fame is related to the widespread of the Internet and a relative website.
B. Cat videos take up half of all the original YouTube videos.
C. They are the first to be filmed among all the animals throughout the world.
D. They earned millions with their videos in the 1990s.
29. Why did Jessica make the study?
A. To improve people’s mood and reduce people’s anxiety.
B. To ask about people’s present feelings and living conditions.
C. To find the effect of watching cat videos on people’s mood.
D. To help people live their life to the fullest.
30. What’s special about Lil BUB?
A. She has the most videos online. B. She is popular at home and abroad.
C. She has her own brands. D. She has her own charity.
31. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Cats become celebrities B. Cat videos rule the Internet
C. Watching cat videos counts D. Cats’ contributions to the world
D
Seattle on Sunday became the first major US city to ban drinking straws(吸管), an environmentally friendly move that leaders hope will spark a nationwide conversation about small, everyday changes that people can make to protect the planet.
A decade ago, the city adopted a law requiring that all one-time-use food-service items be compostable(可分解的) or recyclable. But straws were exempted from that law because there were not many good alternatives. So the straws stayed, along with the environmental problems they cause.
Most plastic straws aren’t heavy enough to make it through industrial recycling sorters, and can ruin an otherwise good load of recycling. Or they end up getting blown out of trash cans and car windows and eventually wind up in the oceans, where they can hurt wildlife.
Strawless Ocean estimates that 71 percent of seabirds and 30 percent of turtles have some kind of plastic in their stomachs. The organization says plastic can increase the death rate of marine life by 50 percent.
Now customers at grocery stores, restaurants, food trucks, even institutional cafeterias have to find another way to get liquid into their mouths. Compostable paper straws are allowed under the ban. People who have a medical need to use a straw are not included.
Failure to obey may result in a US$250 fine, although city leaders said that the purpose of the law is more about raising awareness. In September, 150 businesses participated in Strawless in Seattle, an attempt to reduce the use of plastic straws. In that month alone, Strawless Ocean estimates, 2.3 million plastic straws were removed from the city.
“When you get your iced drink, you’re going to get a straw. When you get your wine, you’re probably going to get a straw,” said Dune Ives, executive director of the Lonely Whale Foundation, which led the campaign. “Imagine a world where we could stop consuming 500 million straws a day, just in America!” the campaign says. “Imagine a world that is less dependent on plastic. That’s change we can start today!”
32. What does the underlined word “exempted” mean in the second paragraph?
A. To make something out of the list. B. To make something better than before.
C. To include something in a special list. D. To forgive someone who makes mistakes.
33. What the problem may the drinking straws cause according to the passage?
A. They may make the trash cans dirty.
B. They may destroy American recycling system.
C. They may cause much ocean wildlife in danger.
D. They may cause many companies get fined.
34. What is the attitude of the public towards the ban?
A. Many people are in favor of it. B. Many people pay no attention to it.
C. Some people are strongly against it. D. Only the government workers agree with it.
35. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Seattle becomes first major US city to ban straws.
B. Seattle successfully bans people from using straws.
C. Seattle has been working hard to protect the environment.
D. Imagine a world that is less dependent on plastic.

Many healthcare workers know that washing hands is important to prevent the spread of infectious disease. 36. During a study conducted by Nicas and Best at Berkley University, they counted the number of times people touched their face with their hands. 37. Whether we are aware of our actions or not, most of us can agree that we touch our face with our hands frequently enough.
Imagine that you are able to record a full day of your actions. Better yet, reflect on what you did when
you woke up yesterday morning. Let me give you an idea of my previous morning. I was woken by the alarm clock at 6 am. 38. Then I checked my phone for messages, turned on the TV for my morning news, started making my coffee and finally hit the shower. It wasn’t even 5 minutes from the time I awoke and I already touched different objects. The point of this is to be aware that even in our homes we are exposed to germs in places we don’t realize.
Luckily, the human body has amazing defense against harmful germs. 39. Our white blood cells are like soldiers coming to the rescue. Unfortunately, there are a lot of areas on our face that do not have the protection of skin such as the eyes and mouth. There’s a reason to every wise proverb and our parents annoying us to wash our hands before dinner.
40. If you have children, it is even more important to set the example because children are known to learn from adults. Let’s start a good habit of washing hands. As for your friends, don’t be shy about checking to make sure their hands are clean. Asking someone if they have washed their hands is caring. Checking to see if someone has washed their hands will benefit not only that person, but you and your family.
A. Our skin is the first line of defense.
B. Several minutes later, I turned off the alarm clock.
C. It is easy for us to admit that we wash our hands regularly.
D. They are more self-aware that hand washing should be practiced as needed.
E. Most importantly, it is our duty to set the right example for friends and family.
F. They found that the subjects touched their face 15.7 times per hour on average.
G. Do the rest of your family members, especially children, wash their hands regularly?

I’ve seen various stickers before, but none of them have touched me as your sticker has done. “The two small words on the sticker seem simple enough, but they really struck a chord with many complete strangers who 51 to catch sight of the sticker.
Stories like Amie’s really 52 the rest of us. Sometimes a kind word or gesture may lift our 53 and it doesn’t cost a thing except for a little extra thought. Maybe it means offering a friend a hug, praising the children when their children 54 well in school, helping someone out or volunteering at animal shelters or shelters for the homeless.

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
It was a rainy November morning. Overcome with anger I knew if I didn’t leave the house soon I would lose my temper with my husband, Joe. As rain came down in sheets, Joe offered to take me to work. I struggled into my jacket, seized my bag and teaching plans and ignored him.
He insisted and reached for his boots. I looked at the piles of newspapers and the dirty dishes still on the table. “Don’t you have enough to do?I can take care of myself.” I stormed out, not even kissing him good-bye. Joe shouted after me not to take the shortcut.
Joe and I had been eagerly looking forward to our retirement when a heart attack that past spring forced him to leave his job earlier than we had planned. As the medical bills mounted we realized I would have to continue working full-time while Joe stayed home and took over the housework.
The new arrangement was a disaster. Exhausted after a day of full work, all I wanted was hot homecooked meal and a good night’s sleep. However, what greeted me at the table was a microwave package. Sometimes he would serve oatmeal for several nights in a row. One night when I dragged myself to bed, I was terrified to discover Joe had turned our white sheets blue: He told me he had found out how to save on water, soap and electricity. He patted his blue trousers and announced proudly washing everything together was just the secret.
Ten minutes later, ignoring Joe’s warning I turned off the main route. I thought it hadn’t rained enough to flood the road, but as I rounded the corner water rushed across my path. After a few feet, the car got stuck. I opened the door and water poured in. I hurriedly closed the door. I couldn’t risk walking in this. Almost 20 minutes passed. The car began to shake. I got frightened to death when I heard three long honks.

35. 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Seattle on Sunday became the first major US city to ban drinking straws(吸管), an environmentally friendly move that leaders hope will spark a nationwide conversation about small, everyday changes that people can make to protect the planet.”(上周日,西雅图成为美国首个禁止使用吸管的大城市。发起人希望这一环保举措能引发一场全国性的讨论,让人们从日常生活中的点滴做起,保护我们的地球。)文章还说明了塑料吸管对环境的影响,以及公众对此的态度。由此可知,A选项“西雅图成为美国第一个禁止使用吸管的大城市”最符合文章标题,故选A。

【解析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了来自肯尼亚的运动员Eliud Kipchoge首次冲破了马拉松比赛2个小时的大关,但因为规则上的限制,国际田联并没有认可其为新的世界纪录。
56. 考查非谓语动词。句意:Eliud Kipchoge已成为第一位马拉松比赛跑进2小时的运动员,比之前的记录快了20秒。这里“run”作后置定语修饰“athlete”,“run”和“athlete”之间是主动关系且“athlete”被序数词“the first”修饰,要用不定式。故填to run。
57. 考查非谓语动词。句意:Eliud Kipchoge已成为第一位马拉松比赛跑进2小时的运动员,比之前的记录快了20秒。这里“beat the record”作前句的状语,“beat”与主语“Eliud Kipchoge”之间是主动关系,要用现在分词形式。故填beating。
58. 考查介词。句意:这位34岁的肯尼亚人,在10月12日于奥地利维也纳举行的Ineos 1:59挑战中用1小时59分40秒就跑完了26.2英里。在具体的某月某日前,要用介词on。故填on。
59. 考查被动语态。句意:这不会被认定为正式的马拉松世界纪录,因为它没有出现在公开的比赛中。分析句子可知,主语“it”(指代Eliud Kipchoge跑出的成绩)与“recognize”之间应该是被动关系,表示“被承认”,且置于情态动词后be动词要用原形。故填be recognized。
60. 考查名词。句意:这不会被认定为正式的马拉松世界纪录,因为它没有出现在公开的比赛中。这里“compete”与冠词“an”和形容词“open”一起组成宾语,要用名词形式。故填competition。
61. 考查形容词比较级。句意:我期待更多的人能跟随我的脚步。前后句存在句意上的递进关系,Eliud Kipchoge希望的是有越来越多的人能像他一样打破2小时的大关,要用more来表示“更多的”。故填more。
62. 考查时态。句意:这位四届伦敦马拉松冠军得主拥抱了他的妻子Grace,抓着一个肯尼亚国旗。文章主时态为一般过去时,这里“hug”的动作发生在过去,也要用一般过去时。故填hugged。
63. 考查冠词。句意:这位四届伦敦马拉松冠军得主拥抱了他的妻子Grace,抓着一面肯尼亚国旗。这里表示“一面国旗”,泛指,要用不定冠词。故填a。
64. 考查副词。句意:而正式比赛中运动员正常来说只能从桌子上自己拿饮料。这里作状语修饰整个句子,要用副词形式。故填normally。
65. 考查定语从句。句意:这些场外援助是不为国际田联的规则所允许的,这就是为什么他的纪录没有被认定为正式的马拉松世界纪录。分析句子结构可知,这里使用非限制性定语从句,先行词为整个主句的内容,这时要用关系代词which在从句中作主语。故填which。

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
【范文】
Paragraph 1:
Looking over my shoulder, I stared into the flashing lights of a truck. It was Joe!I couldn’t help bursting into tears. Joe shouted to me not to be frightened. Then he threw a thick rope so that I could hang on to it and walk straight toward him. I opened the door, grabbed it and inched out. However, a sudden fall left me in the rushing water. I struggled to my feet, only to find a branch blocking the way right in front of me.
Paragraph 2:
I screamed that I couldn’t make it. Joe, however, remained calm! He urged me to take one step at a time and assured me I could make it. I moved forward slowly and cautiously before I fell into his arms. Sobbing against his chest, I apologized that I shouldn’t have taken the shortcut. Joe patted me saying his primary concern was my safety. Only then did I realize Joe actually understood how to take care of me despite his trouble with the housework.
【解析】这是一篇读后续写作文。
通过阅读所给文章可知,文章主要记叙了作者的丈夫因为心脏病发作,不得不待在家里做家务,而作者要继续全职工作。一天的劳累之后,作者想要的只是一顿热腾腾的饭菜和一夜好眠,却发现丈夫只会做速食食品和燕麦粥,而且家务也做的不好,为此作者对丈夫心生不满。十一月的一个早晨,下着大雨,作者的丈夫Joe叮嘱作者不要抄近路去上班。作者没有听丈夫的话,还是走了近路,结果车被困在了满是积水的道路上。
续写部分分为两段,第一段开头是:我回过头,盯着一辆卡车闪烁的灯光。所以后文应该是讲述作者发现是丈夫来解救自己,以及丈夫解救作者的经过,最后作者被一根树枝拦住了;第二段开头是:我尖叫着说我过去不了。本段应该写作者的丈夫如何鼓励作者克服了困难的,最后作者意识到丈夫其实懂得如何照顾自己,尽管他不太会做家务。
续写时要求使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语增加了写作难度,我们要熟悉所给划线词语,恰当的时候加以运用。最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右;续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。按要求完成写作任务。
本文描写详略得当,使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如:couldn’t help doing sth., hang on to, in front of, urge sb.to do sth.等高级词汇;Then he threw a thick rope so that I could hang on to it and walk straight toward him. 运用了目的状语从句;Only then did I realize Joe actually understood how to take care of me despite his trouble with the housework.运用了倒装句等高级句式。
