Imagine someone who has spent the majority of their life sitting with a sign on the side of the road and that very person giving someone their last 20 dollars.
That’s exactly what Marine Corps veteran ( 退伍军人) Johnny Bobbitt, 34, did in
October in Philadelphia.
Bobbitt served in the U.S. Marine Corps and worked as a paramedic (医务辅助人
员) in Vance County, N. C. before he became homeless. Nobody knew how he got to
where he was because he was discreet about that.
One night in October, Bobbitt was sitting roadside with a sign in
Philadelphia as usual, when Kate McClure of Florence Township, N. J. was driving
home down Interstate 95 and ran out of gas. Scared and nervous, she got out of
the car to head to the nearest gas station. As McClure was heading to the nearest
gas station, she ran into Bobbitt and he told her to get back in the vehicle and
lock the door. Minutes later, he appeared with a red gas can. He’d used his last
$20 to buy her gas.
After that unexpected meeting, McClure and her boyfriend, Mark D’Amico, who
both live in New Jersey, visited Bobbitt several times to deliver gift cards,
cash, snacks and toiletries. They then decided to create a fund raising page so
he wouldn’t have to spend the holidays sleeping on the street.
McClure started the GoFundMe page on November 10. With the page, the couple
hoped to raise $10,000, enough money for his rent, a reliable vehicle and up to
six months’ expenses. Bobbitt’s story ran in a local paper. By November 15，more
than 10,000 local people had made donations through the GoFundMe page and more
than $300,000 had been raised.
On Thanksgiving, Bobbitt was resting in a hotel, his feet up on the bed,
drawing up a grand plan for his new life, thanks to several thousand dollars
raised to repay him for a good deed.
4. What does the underlined word “discreet” in paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A. Doubtful. B. Cautious.
C. Guilty. D. Optimistic.
5. McClure met Bobbitt when she .
A. couldn’t find a gas station B. got to the way home

A. Bobbitt’s story obtained wide attention
B. Bobbitt became world-famous overnight
C. the GoFundMe page collected over $400,000 for Bobbitt
D. the GoFundMe page was started to help people like Bobbitt
7. What is the best title for the text?

C. A Homeless Veteran’s Kindness Paid Off
D. A Small Kindness Made a Big Difference

CEmpathy ( 同理心)is one of those strange qualities—something almost everyone
wants, but few know how to truly give or receive it. In a world where
self-satisfaction is emphasized, it is in short supply but high demand. This is
all the more reason to teach the next generation what it means to have empathy
for those around them.
What Is Empathy?— Many people confuse sympathy and empathy, but they are two
distinct values. Empathy is not just the ability to understand someone's feelings;
criminals often take advantage of people by appearing to understand their
feelings and subsequently gaining their trust. Empathy is more than that. Not
only is it the ability to recognize how someone feels, but it also values and
respects the feelings of another person. It means treating others with kindness,
dignity, and understanding.
Kids Need To See Adults Show Empathy—While some children are gifted with
naturally kind hearts, in most cases kids need to see empathy modeled by the
adults around them. It begins with the way parents relate to their children.
Parents who show an interest in the things that matter to their kids and respond
to emotions in a positive and caring way are teaching the skill of empathy.
Meet Emotional Needs—When children have their emotional needs met, two
things happen. They learn how to meet the emotional needs of others and they are
anchored in what they are receiving, meaning that they are secure enough to give
to others when the need arises but first they need to receive. An empty jug
cannot fill a cup.
It's a good idea to talk to kids about emotions and how other people
experience them. Give their emotions names (for example, jealousy, anger, and
love) and teach them that these are normal. Talk to them about how to handle
emotions in a positive way and point out situations where other people are
experiencing emotions. Teach them about respecting the emotions of others and
show them how to act in a situation where a response is required.
8. Why is it that the next generation are taught to have empathy?
A. Because people tend to center themselves. B. Because everyone lacks empathy.
C. Because empathy is a strange quality. D. Because it's better to give than to receive.
9. Which situation can empathy be used in?
A. When a mathematician is calculating the area of a farmland.
B. When a teacher is comforting a student about his failure in exams.
C. When a criminal is cheating a victim.
D. When a dancer is dancing to music.
10. What does the underlined sentence "An empty jug cannot fill a cup" mean?
A. An empty jug is too small to hold a cup.
B. It's a must to talk to kids about emotions.
C. Adults should set an example to kids.
D. Kids give empathy with their emotional needs met first.
11. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. How to train kids to have empathy.
B. How to distinguish sympathy and empathy.
C. How to help kids finish empathy-related tasks.
D. Whether kids can be trained to be more empathetic.

理由教导下一代，对周围的人抱有同理心意味着什么。同时说明了同理心的含义，以及如何培
养孩子的同理心。
8. 细节理解题。根据第一段中 In a world where self-satisfaction is emphasized, it is
in short supply but high demand. This is all the more reason to teach the next
generation what it means to have empathy for those around them.（在一个强调自我满
足的世界里，它供不应求。因此，我们更有理由教导下一代，对周围的人抱有同理心意味着什

9. 推理判断题。根据第三段中 While some children are gifted with naturally kind
hearts, in most cases kids need to see empathy modeled by the adults around them.
（虽然有些孩子天生就有一颗善良的心，但在大多数情况下，孩子们需要看到他们周围成年人
的同情心）可知，B 选项“当老师安慰学生考试不及格时”符合同理心使用的情况。故选 B。
10. 词义猜测题。结合上文 Meet Emotional Needs—When children have their emotional needs met, two things happen. They learn how to meet the emotional needs of
others and they are anchored in what they are receiving, meaning that they are
secure enough to give to others when the need arises but first they need to
receive.（满足情感需求——当孩子们的情感需求得到满足时，会发生两件事。他们学习如何
满足他人的情感需求，他们被锚定在他们所接受的东西上，这意味着当需求出现时，他们有足
够的安全感去给予他人，但首先他们需要接受）可知，要想孩子们有同理心，必须首先满足他
们自己的情感需求。故 D 选项符合划线句子的含义。故选 D。

America is well known for being a melting pot of different ethnic groups and
cultures, but nowhere is this diversity more pronounced than in Queens, New York.
Here, second-generation Puerto Ricans live alongside third-generation Greeks
and first-generation Koreans, all united by a common feeling of pride in their
American identity. However, they are also proud and curious about their ancestral
roots. National Geographic’s Genographic Project, also known as the Human Family
Tree, set out to trace the origins by examining their genetic makeup using a
simple DNA test. What interested them more was something that intrigues us all:
the history of our recent ancestry. One recurring theme among immigrants seems to
be the hard work and sacrifices that went into building a new life, and how their
descendants now feel a duty to honor that effort by working hard too. Here is one
Queens resident’s story.
Richard, 38
My great-grandfather Tomas came to America from Poland when he was fifteen.
His mother had died, and his father remarried. Tomas didn’t like his stepmother,
so he ran away to Belgium, where he boarded a ship to America—without a ticket.
Arriving in America with nothing, he got a job on the railroads in California.
Then one day he saw an announcement in a newspaper that was read by immigrants.
It was from his brother in New York who was also seeking his fortune in America and was looking for him. Tomas got in touch and they had an emotional reunion in
New York, where Tomas subsequently settled. This is the story that my grandmother
has passed down to us, to my parents, and all my aunts and uncles. She is an
amazing woman and I suppose: the one who holds us all together. She’s actually
quite forgetful now, but she never forgets family details. What that has meant is
that all of us have a strong family bond and a strong sense of belonging to a
group that has struggled and fought together to steered here.
12. What is special about Queens?
A. Conflicting ethnic minorities live here.
B. Many foreigners like to travel to this place.
C. The pronunciation varies from person to person.
D. Many different people and cultures are gathering here.
13. What does the “one recurring theme” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. A sad experience. B. A common subject.
C. An unknown topic. D. An unusual quality.
14. Which of the following can best describe Tomas?
A. Brave and independent. B. Tough and honest.
C. Talented and persistent. D. Kind and hard-working.
15. What can we know about the immigrants from the text?
A. They are ashamed of their roots.
B. They feel attached to their family.
C. They can’t fit in with the new surroundings.
D. They are less interested in recent generations.

【语篇解读】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。美国是一个种族和文化的大熔炉，尽管移民在美
国生活了几代，但他们仍对自己的祖辈感到骄傲和好奇。祖辈的努力和牺牲让他们有强烈的家
庭归属感，也激励着他们更加努力。
12. 细节理解题。根据文章第一段的 America is well known for being a melting pot of
different ethnic groups and cultures, but nowhere is this diversity more
pronounced than in Queens, New York.可知，美国是不同种族和文化的大熔炉，但这种多样性在纽约的皇后区最为明显，即：皇后区汇集了不同种族的人和文化。D. Many different
people and cultures are gathering here.（不同的人和文化在这汇集）符合以上说法，故
选 D 项。
13. 词义猜测题。根据划线部分所在句子 One recurring theme among immigrants seems to
be the hard work and sacrifices that went into building a new life, and how their
descendants now feel a duty to honor that effort by working hard too.（移民中……
似乎是为了建立新生活他们所付出的努力和牺牲，以及他们的后代应该感到有责任通过努力工
作来纪念他们的努力。）联系上下文，可知这是很多移民谈到的话题，故推测划线部分的意思
是“一个共同的主题” 。B. A common subject.（一个共同的主题）符合以上说法，故选 B
项。
14. 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的 so he ran away to Belgium, where he boarded a
ship to America—without a ticket. Arriving in America with nothing, he got a job
on the railroads in California.可知 Tomas 没有买票一个人坐上了到美国的轮船，到了美
国后身无分文在火车站找了一份工作，这些体现了 Tomas 的勇敢和独立。A. Brave and
independent.（勇敢和独立）符合以上说法，故选 A 项。
15. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的 What interested them more was something that
intrigues us all: the history of our recent ancestry.和最后一段的 She’s actually
quite forgetful now, but she never forgets family details. What that has meant is
that all of us have a strong family bond and a strong sense of belonging to a
group that has struggled and fought together to steered here.可知美国移民对他们祖
辈的历史更感兴趣；Richard 的祖母忘不了家庭细节意味着他们有强烈的家庭纽带和归属感，
即这些移民看重家庭以及对家庭的依恋。B. They feel attached to their family.（他们对
家庭的依恋）符合以上说法，故选 B 项。

What does Wi-Fi stand for?
Long gone are the days of dial-up and waiting for your turn to use the
computer. It’s easier than ever to connect to the Internet in the digital world
today. 16.
Wi-Fi is a wireless network that uses radio frequency signals to connect to the Internet or send messages between devices without wires. Everything from your
phone and laptop to tablets and printers can use Wi-Fi, thanks to these waves. 17.
Two years later, a group of companies formed the Wireless Ethernet Compatibility
Alliance (WECA, now the Wi-Fi Alliance), a global non-profit organization created
to promote the new Wi-Fi standard.
None of that history explains what Wi-Fi stands for, because the phrase
doesn’t stand for anything. Wi-Fi is a trademarked term describing the device or
technology based on the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
wireless communication standard 802.11, according to the Wi-Fi Alliance.18. So
the Wi-Fi Alliance hired the marketing company Interbrand to come up with a
shorter name: Wi-Fi, according to one of the founding Alliance members.
19. The rumor that it stands for “Wireless Fidelity (无线保证)” is thanks
to the Alliance. Some members didn’t understand the branding or marketing for
Wi-Fi. They felt consumers would want an explanation for the name. So the
Alliance agreed to include a tagline: The Standard for Wireless Fidelity. That’s
why so many people assume Wi-Fi stands for wireless fidelity, but the tagline
came after the name.20. Don’t add to the confusion and stop miss-associating
these phrases by learning the real meaning behind these acronyms (缩略词).
A. That’s a mouthful.
B. This is mostly thanks to Wi-Fi.
C. The name caused a misconception about Wi-Fi.
D. There is some debate surrounding the question what Wi-Fi stands for.
E. In 1997, a committee of industry leaders approved a common Wi-Fi standard.
F. Several years ago, a common standard of Wi-Fi was set up by several companies.
G. Plus, the Alliance removed the tag, although the confusion it brought still
lives on today.

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了 Wi-Fi 的历史，Wi-Fi 这个名字的由来以及就
这个名字背后所代表的含义引发的一些争议。
16. 根据上文 Long gone are the days of dial-up and waiting for your turn to use the computer. It’s easier than ever to connect to the Internet in the digital
world today.（拨号和等待轮到你使用电脑的日子已经一去不复返了。在当今的数字世界，连
接互联网比以往任何时候都容易。）以及下文 Wi-Fi is a wireless network that uses radio
frequency signals to connect to the Internet or send messages between devices
without wires.（Wi-Fi 是一种无线网络，它利用无线频率信号连接到互联网或在无线设备之
间发送信息。）可知是在说明 Wi-Fi 带给人们的便利，连接互联网比以前更容易应归功于
Wi-Fi。故 B 选项“这主要归功于 Wi-Fi。”符合上下文语境，故选 B。
17. 根据下文 Two years later, a group of companies formed the Wireless Ethernet
Compatibility Alliance (WECA, now the Wi-Fi Alliance), a global non-profit
organization created to promote the new Wi-Fi standard.（两年后，一些公司成立了无
线以太网兼容联盟(WECA，即现在的 Wi-Fi 联盟)，这是一个全球性的非盈利组织，旨在推广新
的 Wi-Fi 标准。）可知本句为说明推出了新的通用的 Wi-Fi 标准。故 E 选项“1997 年，一个行
业领袖委员会批准了一个通用的 Wi-Fi 标准。”符合上下文语境，故选 E。
18. 根据下文 So the Wi-Fi Alliance hired the marketing company Interbrand to come
up with a shorter name: Wi-Fi, according to one of the founding Alliance members.
（因此，Wi-Fi 联盟聘请了营销公司 Interbrand，根据该联盟的一名创始成员的说法，他们想
出了一个更简短的名字:Wi-Fi。）可知因为上文提出的名字过于拗口，因此 Wi-Fi 联盟想出了
一个更简短的名字。故 A 选项“真拗口。”符合上下文语境。故选 A。
19. 根据下文 The rumor that it stands for “Wireless Fidelity” is thanks to the
Alliance. Some members didn’t understand the branding or marketing for Wi-Fi.
They felt consumers would want an explanation for the name.（它代表“无线保真”的
谣言是由于联盟。一些会员不了解 Wi-Fi 的品牌和营销。他们认为消费者会希望对这个名字有
一个解释。）可推知对于 Wi-Fi 代表什么有一些不一致的意见，存在一些争议。故 D 选项“关
于 Wi-Fi 代表什么有一些争论。”符合上下文语境。故选 D。
20. 根据下文 Don’t add to the confusion and stop miss-associating these phrases by
learning the real meaning behind these acronyms.（不要混淆，不要通过学习这些缩略词
背后的真正含义来把这些短语联系起来。）可推知为了避免造成混乱，联盟去掉了 tagline 这
个标签，但是混乱今天仍然存在。故 G 选项“此外，该联盟去掉了这个标签，尽管它带来的混
乱今天仍然存在。”符合上下文语境。故选 G。

第二节（共 10 小题；每小题 l5 分，满分 15 分）
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。Scientists say crocodiles have outlived dinosaurs 41. some 65 million years.
One reason why they are such good 42. (survive) is that they can go for a very
long time without eating. And they are expert hunters,43. (use) their strong jaws
to bite their prey(猎物) and then swallow it whole. When they lose a tooth they
grow one right back. A crocodile can go through 8,000 44. (tooth) in one
lifetime!
What does the expression “crocodile tears” mean? Simply put, “crocodile
tears” are fake sadness. You pretend 45. (cry) and feel bad for something when
in fact you could not care 46. (little). A great word to describe it is insincere.
The phrase “crocodile tears” comes from an old myth that crocodiles would shed
tears while eating their prey. A religious worker wrote that 47. a crocodile
found a man by the water, it would kill him if it could. Then the crocodile would
cry tears on the man, but then finally swallow 48. (he). Another myth suggests49.
crocodile is very clever indeed. Crocodiles, the story goes, would cry tears as a
false show of guilt or sadness to trick their prey. The prey would come closer
and then become dinner.
Scientists explain that crocodiles DO create tears, but they do not cry. The
tears help to clean their eyes. Crying is purely emotional and it 50. (reserve)
for us humans.
【答案】
41. by42. survivors43. using44. teeth45. to cry
46. less47. if/when/once48. him49. the50. is reserved
【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要解释了短语“鳄鱼的眼泪”的含义，它表示虚假
的悲伤。科学家解释说，鳄鱼的确会流泪，但它们不会哭。眼泪有助于清洁他们的眼睛。哭纯
粹是感情用事，是人类的天性。
41. 考查固定短语。句意：科学家说，鳄鱼比恐龙寿命长约 6500 万年。固定短语 outlive
by“比……寿命长”，故填 by。
42. 考查名词的数。句意：它们是如此优秀的幸存者的一个原因是它们可以长时间不吃东西。
根据上文 good 为形容词修饰名词可知应填名词 survivor“幸存者”，且主语 they are 可知应
填复数形式，故填 survivors。
43. 考查非谓语动词。句意：它们是专业的捕猎者，用它们强有力的下颚来咬它们的猎物，然后把它整个吞下去。本句中 use 做非谓语动词，与逻辑主语 they 构成主动关系用现在分词，
故填 using。
44. 考查名词的数。句意：一条鳄鱼一生能咬掉 8000 颗牙!tooth 为可数名词，由 8000 修饰
应用复数形式，故填 teeth。
45. 考查固定短语。句意：你假装哭泣，为某事感到难过，而实际上你根本不在乎。固定短语
pretend to do sth.“假装做某事”，故填 to cry。
46. 考查形容词比较级。句意：你假装哭泣，为某事感到难过，而实际上你根本不在乎。根据
上文 you could not 可知为“否定词+形容词比较级”表示最高级结构，故填 less。
47. 考查连词。句意：如果/当/一旦一条鳄鱼在水边发现了一个人，它会杀死他。本句可理解
为条件状语从句，表示“如果”，可填 if；也可理解为时间状语从句，表示“当……时候”或
“一旦”，可填 when 或 once，故填 if/when/once。
48. 考查代词。句意：然后鳄鱼会对着他哭，最后把他吞下去。做动词 swallow 的宾语应用人
称代词的宾格形式，故填 him。
49. 考查冠词。句意：另一个传说表明鳄鱼确实很聪明。此处表示特指“鳄鱼”这个物种，应
用定冠词，故填 the。
50. 考查动词时态语态。句意：哭纯粹是感情用事，是人类的天性。本句中 it 指代上文
crying，且与谓语动词构成被动关系，且描述客观事实用一般现在时，主语为 it，故填 is
reserved。

【语篇解读】这是一则广告。学校舞蹈俱乐部准备招聘会员，并说明其招聘要求和方式。
【详解】
1. 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知，该句用 and 连接连个不定式结构，第二个不定式省略
to，故将 involving 改为 involve。
2.考查名词的数。activity（活动）是可数名词，根据前文的 diverse（各种各样的）判断应
用复数形式，故将 activity 改为 activities。
3. 考查形容词。此处考查短语 be interested in 对……感兴趣，故将 interesting 改为
interested。
4.考查连接词。分析句子可知 is 后为表语从句，从句缺少宾语，且指物，故应用连接代词
what，故将 that 改为 what。
5.考查固定句型。此处考查固定句型 there is no doubt that…毫无疑问……，故将 It 改为
There。
6.考查冠词。句意：毫无疑问热情对于舞蹈来说是一个必须的东西。此处考查 a must 一件必
须的事/必不可少的东西，且 must 是辅音音素开头，故在 is 后加 a。
7.考查连词。句意：如果你能够组织活动或者有舞蹈方面的经历，那你更有可能被录取。结合句意可知，此处译为“如果……”才符合语境，故将 unless 改为 if。
8. 考查时态。根据前文的 are 判断为一般现在时，or 连接的两个谓语动词时态保持一致，
故将 had 改为 have。
9. 考查副词。此处应用副词修饰后面的句子，故将 Additional 改为 Additionally。
10. 考查介词。此处考查短语 join sb 加入某人/和某人一起，故删除 join 后的 in。

Dear Peter,
I’m honored to tell you that a football team from a UK middle school will
come to our school. We’re expecting you to enjoy their wonderful performance
with us.
The team, consisting of 15 members in total, is scheduled to arrive at 3
o’clock next Monday afternoon. A brief welcome ceremony will be held, followed
by a match between this visiting team and our school football team on the
playground. The match will begin at 3:30 pm. After the match, both teams will
gather at the Lecture Hall, where these British friends are ready to talk about
their school life and answer questions from us students.
Looking forward to your presence.
Yours,
