A
The UK is home to some of the best museums in the world, from awe-inspiring natural history collections, to
fun and interactive exhibitions. Here's a round-up of must-visit museums that will keep everyone happy.
Beamish
This living, working museum shows what life was like in North-east England in the 1820s, early 1900s and
1940s. The buildings give a true sense of history. Museum workers are dressed up in period costume, so you'll
really feel like you've stepped back in time. You can even buy bread from the 1900s bakery, have a drink in the
traditional pub or treat yourself in the old-fashioned sweet shop.
National Justice Museum
The National Justice Museum covers the past and present of law and justice in the UK. During your visit,
you'll encounter various historical characters, watch a recreation of a famous court trial, learn about prison reform,
and — if you're brave enough — join one of the chilling ghost tours.
Natural History Museum
This iconic London museum has drawn huge crowds for more than 130 years. Inside the famous red-brick
building, you'll discover hundreds of fascinating exhibits, including dinosaur skeletons and fossils, a mind-blowing
blue whale skeleton, and the Darwin Centre, where you can see hundreds of specimens and hear talks from
scientists-and it's free to get in.
The Mary Rose Museum
You'll find The Mary Rose Museum at the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, where instead of simply learning
the story of Henry VIII's famous ship, which sank in 1545, you'll stand just feet from it. The Mary Rose was raised
from the depths of the Solent in 1982 and has been painstakingly conserved for future generations. The huge
floor-to-ceiling windows and air-locked viewing balcony give you the chance to see a 16th century warship like
never before.

Sally had just jumped in the shower when she heard her mother, Tammy banging on the door. Sally's
12-day-old daughter was choking. She was usually quick to cry. Now she didn't make a sound. "I'd been told to
raise their arms when babies arc choking, so I tried that, but she was hesitating to breathe," She needed to get to the
hospital fast.
The three had barely made it out of their neighborhood when the flashing lights of a police cruiser(巡逻
车)appeared behind them. Deputy Jack figured that the speeding driver was either too distracted to notice him or
just unconcerned. Jack soon found out it was a frightening combination of the two.
Immediately, a panicked Tammy jumped out of the car, exclaiming that her granddaughter had stopped
breathing. Desperate for help, Sally handed the baby to Jack. Ryleigh's heart was barely beating. It was seven
minutes out and the hospital was even further away. That was seven minutes. Ryleigh didn't have, for her lips
already a shade of blue.
The fact that Jack was there was a miracle(奇迹). Good luck for the baby, he had recently completed a CPR
class. "Although I was shocked, my training kicked in." said Jack. The deputy gave Ryleigh to Sally to hold, his
hands busy as he checked for a pulse. Then he began tapping and kneading(揉搓)Ryleigh's chest. Thanks to the
CPR class, he used one linger to clear her airway. That was the magic touch. 20 seconds later, Ryleigh began to fuss.
Then came a whimper. “If she's crying like that, she's breathing." said Jack in his trembling voice. "The whole time
I was thinking, do not let this baby die in front of her mother and grandmother,” he later told Inside Edition. "Just
don't."
4. What caught Deputy Jack's attention at the very beginning?
A. A crying baby.
B. An unusual car.
C. A speeding driver.
D. A frightened mother.
5. Sally handed the baby to Jack because .
A. she knew Jack could save the baby.
B. she needed help desperately.
C. she had to help its mother.
D. the baby was crying.
6. Which step was the most crucial when Jack was saving the choking baby?

D. Checking for its pulse.
7. What is the passage mainly about?
A. A CPR miracle.
B. A lifesaving traffic stop.
C. A lovely and lucky baby.
D. A mother's unforgettable experience.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. B

C
About a billion birds die from flying into buildings each year in North America. Suspicions have been that
birds may regard the open areas behind glass as safe passageways. Or they may mistake the reflected trees for the
real thing.
Researchers would like to reduce collisions, which requires a solid understanding about what makes a bird
more or less likely to die by crashing into a building in the first place.
“There was relatively little known at a broad scale. Previous studies were at one small study site.'' Jared
Elmore, a graduate student in natural resource ecology and management at Oklahoma State University. So he and
his colleagues used a previously created data set of building collisions for birds at 40 sites throughout Mexico,
Canada and the U.S.
The first finding was obvious: bigger buildings with more glass kill more birds. But the details were more
remarkable. "We found that life history predicted collisions. Migrants(候鸟), insect-eaters and woodland-inhabiting
species collided more than their counterparts(同类).”
Most migratory species travel at night, when lights near buildings can distract or disorient(使迷失方向)them.
And Elmore thinks that insect-eating birds might be attracted to buildings because their insect prey(猎物)is
attracted to the lights. He suspects that woodland species get tooled by the reflections of trees and bushes in the
windows. The results are in the journal Conservation Biology.
By understanding which birds are more likely to collide with buildings, researchers can perhaps determine the
best way to adapt buildings, or their lighting, to help prevent such accidents. And by knowing risks, along with
migration timing and behavior, building managers can better predict when birds are at their greatest danger - and
improve lighting strategics accordingly.
Elmore's next project will use radar to help predict bird migrations. " I think that would maybe go a long way
in terms of providing information to people, to the public, to building managers, on when they can get the most
benefit in terms of lights-out policies."
8. What is the possible reason for birds' crashing into buildings?
A. They didn't see the buildings.
B. They took reflections for reality.
C. They assumed the windows to be open.
D. They considered buildings as safe routes.
9. What is Jared Elmore's study different from the previous ones?
A. It created a new data set.
B. It went beyond national borders.
C. It covered a wider range of sites.
D. I’ll studied some specific bird species.
10. What was the most noticeable finding of Jared Elmore's study?
A. Migratory species travel at night.
B. Birds tend to be misled by glasses.
C. Bigger buildings cause more collisions.
D. Birds living habits give rise to collisions.
11. Which of the following can help reduce bird collision?
A. Adjust the lightening system.
B. Attach radars to each building.
C. Adopt strict lights-out policies.
D. Ban using glasses on buildings.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。文章介绍了一项鸟类为什么会撞击建筑物的研究。
【8 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“Suspicions have been that birds may regard the open areas behind glass as safe
passageways. Or they may mistake the reflected trees for the real thing.(有人怀疑鸟类可能会将玻璃后面的开放
区域视为安全通道。或者它们会把反射出来的树叶认为是真的。)”可知,鸟类撞击建筑物的可能的原因是
它们把反映出的东西误认为是真实的。故选 B。
【9 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段““There was relatively little known at a broad scale. Previous studies were at one small
study site.'' Jared Elmore, a graduate student in natural resource ecology and management at Oklahoma State
University. So he and his colleagues used a previously created data set of building collisions for birds at 40 sites
throughout Mexico, Canada and the U.S.(“过去人们对大领域的研究知之甚少。以前的研究都是在一个小的研
究场所进行的。Jared Elmore,俄克拉荷马州立大学自然资源生态与管理专业的研究生,他和同事使用了之
前创建的关于鸟类碰撞建筑的数据集,这些数据分布在墨西哥、加拿大和美国的 40 个地方。)”可知,Jared
Elmore 的研究覆盖了更广泛的地方,不同于以前的研究。故选 C。
【10 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的“But the details were more remarkable. We found that life history predicted collisions.
Migrants(候鸟), insect-eaters and woodland-inhabiting species collided more than their counterparts(同类).( 但是
细节更值得我们注意。我们发现生命的历史可以预测碰撞事故。候鸟、食虫者和栖息在林地的物种之间的
碰撞比它们的同类要多。)”可推断,Jared Elmore 的研究中最明显的发现是鸟类的生活习惯会导致碰撞。故
选 D。
【11 题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“And by knowing risks, along with migration timing and behavior, building
managers can better predict when birds are at their greatest danger - and improve lighting strategics accordingly.(通
过了解风险、迁徙时间和行为,建筑管理者可以更好地预测鸟类的最大危险时刻,并相应地调整照明策略。)”
可推断,调整照明系统可以有助于减少鸟类的碰撞。故选 A。
D
Facebook is to allow users to clean up their profiles by hiding posts and photographs dating from when they
were teenagers or at university in fears it could hinder their future job prospects. It said it had added the feature
because “we know things change in people's lives” and that it wished to make it easier for people to “accurately
reflect” who they were in the present. It said the public would be able to use the “Manage Activity” tool to search
their posts by year or person, and delete or save those posts in bulk.
If users save posts, they will not just be hidden from timelines, as they are with the current "Hide" feature, but
from across Facebook as a whole, regardless of where it was posted or who was tagged in it. Such tools could prove
useful to those looking to clean up their social media presence ahead of job interviews by making it impossible to
find old posts of parties, nights out or fancy dress that could show them in a negative light.
However, the move may cause some concern that Facebook is allowing people to whitewash their history,
making it more difficult for people to search through posts for evidence of damaging comments.
Over the past few years, it has become relatively easy to search through old posts, with the company in 2015
introducing a new indexing tool, by which users could search for terms such as “posts about drunk'' and bring up
lists of someone's historic posts. This has led to revelations over a number of high-profile figures, who have faced
criticism over comments they had made on Facebook in the past.
In November, Conservative election candidate Antony Calvert stepped down from campaigning in Wakefield
after historic Facebook posts emerged from 2010 and 2011 in which he made racist and sexist remarks. Mr. Calvert,
who had once referred to the capital as “Londonistan”, said the entries were more than 10 years old, were not meant
to be taken seriously and did not represent his views.
12. What docs Facebook allow people to do?
A. Hide negative files. B. Whitewash their work.
C. Delete new features. D. Search historic posts.
13. What's the purpose of Facebook's move?
A. To spread a new indexing tool. B. To ensure a bright future.
C. To respect high-profile figures. D. To focus on present conduct.
14. What does the underlined “hinder” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Raise. B. Adjust. C. Destroy. D. Interrupt.
15. What's the author's attitude towards the move of Facebook?
A. Uncertain. B. Understandable. C. Doubtful. D. Objective.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。主要说明了 Facebook 将允许人们隐藏过去的负面文件,以免影响未来的就业
前景。然而,此举可能会引起一些担忧,文章还介绍了保守党选举候选人的例子来说明过去言论对人们的
影响。
【12 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Facebook is to allow users to clean up their profiles by hiding posts and photographs
dating from when they were teenagers or at university in fears it could hinder their future job prospects.( Facebook
将允许用户清理个人资料,隐藏青少年时期和大学时期的帖子和照片,以免影响未来的就业前景)”可知,
Facebook 允许人们隐藏负面文件。故选 A。
【13 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“It said it had added the feature because “we know things change in people's lives”
and that it wished to make it easier for people to “accurately reflect” who they were in the present. (Facebook 表
示,之所以增加这一功能,是因为“我们知道人们生活中的事情在发生变化”,希望能让人们更容易“准
确地反映”当下的自己)”可知,Facebook 此举的目的是专注于现在的行为。故选 D。
【14 题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第一段中“It said it had added the feature because “we know things change in people's lives”
and that it wished to make it easier for people to “accurately reflect” who they were in the present. (Facebook 表
示,之所以增加这一功能,是因为“我们知道人们生活中的事情在发生变化”,希望能让人们更容易“准
确地反映”当下的自己)”;画线词上文“Facebook is to allow users to clean up their profiles by hiding posts
and photographs dating from when they were teenagers or at university in fears it could”以及后文“their future
job prospects”可知,Facebook 此举是因为希望能让人们更容易“准确地反映”当下的自己,因为青少年时
期和大学时期的帖子和照片,可能会破坏他们未来的就业前景,即画线词意思是“破坏”。A. Raise.提高;
B. Adjust.调整;C. Destroy.破坏;D. Interrupt.中断。故选 C。
【15 题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章主要说明了 Facebook 将允许人们隐藏过去的负面文件,以免影响未来的就业前景。
然而,此举可能会引起一些担忧,文章还介绍了保守党选举候选人的例子来说明过去言论对人们的影响。
文中没有提及作者对此的看法,只是引用了客观的事例,可推知,作者对 Facebook 的举动持客观态度。故
选 D。

根据短文内容,从短文后的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。
Food waste in America
Just how much food do Americans waste? Here are some numbers: The United States is the global leader in
food waste, with Americans throwing away nearly 40 million tons of food every year. That is equal to more than
$161 billion. But the truth is that 37 million people across America — including 11 million children, are suffering
from food shortage. ___16___
More than 80 percent of Americans give up perfectly good food simply because they misunderstand expiration
(到期) labels. Labels like "sell by”, "use by”, or "best by” are confusing to people. ___17___ In reality, a majority
of food thrown away is perfectly safe to eat - about 90 percent of tossed food can still be consumed, according to
The Economics Review at New York University.
___18___ And this contributes to a general culture of not valuing it the way other cultures around the globe do.
Americans have never gone through food shortage crisis in its short history, thus a large number of people take food
for granted.
To solve the problem of food waste in the United States, the government sets a goal to cut U.S. food waste by
50 percent by the year 2030. ___19___ In this way, the Americans will have a better understanding on the
importance of reducing food loss and waste from an early age.
___20___ Waste can be avoided by improving product development, storage, shopping/ ordering, marketing,
labeling, and cooking methods. If excess food is unavoidable, recover it to donate to hunger-relief organizations so
that they can feed people in need. Food that cannot be consumed by man can be recycled into other products such
as animal feed and clothing.
A. Why do Americans waste so much of their food?
B. Food in the United States is plentiful and less costly.
C. The plan aims to get help from public and private schools.
D. The government has to play a major role in reducing food waste.
E. It is reported that 8 million people get sick from eating the wrong food.
F. To avoid the potential of getting sick, they'll just send it to the garbage.
G. Still, the best way to cut back on food loss is to not create it in the first place.
【答案】16. A 17. F 18. B 19. C 20. G
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国食物浪费的原因及措施。
【16 题详解】
根据文章标题“Food waste in America(美国的食物浪费)”和第一句“Just how much food do Americans
waste?(美国人到底浪费了多少食物?)”可知,本文讲的是美国的食物浪费,由下文得知,之后几段介绍的
是原因及措施,所以这里为承上启下句。所以选择项 A“Why do Americans waste so much of their food?(为什
么美国人浪费这么多食物?)”符合上下文语境。故选 A。
【17 题详解】
根据前文“More than 80 percent of Americans give up perfectly good food simply because they misunderstand
expiration(到期)labels. Labels like "sell by”, "use by”, or "best by” are confusing to people. (超过 80%的美国
人放弃了完美的食物,仅仅是因为他们误解了过期标签。像“保质期”,“有效期”,或“最好在”这样
的标签让人感到困惑)”可知,人们看不懂保质期的标签,为了避免吃过期食物而丢弃。所以选择项 F“To
avoid the potential of getting sick, they'll just send it to the garbage. (为了避免生病,他们只会把它扔进垃圾
桶)”符合上下文语境。故选 F。
【18 题详解】
根据后文“And this contributes to a general culture of not valuing it the way other cultures around the globe do.
Americans have never gone through food shortage crisis in its short history, thus a large number of people take food
for granted. (这导致了一种普遍的文化,不像世界上其他文化那样重视它。美国人在其短暂的历史中从未经
历过粮食短缺危机,因此很多人认为粮食是理所当然的)”可知,本段主要介绍美国食物浪费的另外一个原
因:美国的食物丰富又低花费。所以选择项 B“Food in the United States is plentiful and less costly. (美国的食
物丰富而且便宜)”符合上下文语境。故选 B。
【19 题详解】
根据前文“To solve the problem of food waste in the United States, the government sets a goal to cut U.S. food
waste by 50 percent by the year 2030. (为了解决美国的食物浪费问题,政府制定了到 2030 年将美国的食物浪
费减少 50%的目标)”和后文“In this way, the Americans will have a better understanding on the importance of
reducing food loss and waste from an early age. (这样,美国人从很小的时候就会对减少食物损失和浪费的重要
性有更好的理解)”可知,该目标应通过学校的帮助来解决美国的食物浪费问题。所以选择项 C“The plan
aims to get help from public and private schools. (该计划旨在获得公立和私立学校的帮助)”符合上下文语境。
故选 C。
【20 题详解】
根据 后文“Waste can be avoided by improving product development, storage, shopping/ ordering, marketing,
labeling, and cooking methods. (可以通过改进产品开发、存储、购物/订购、营销、标签和烹饪方法来避免浪
费)”可知,最后一段说的是另一种措施:即从源头上减少食物浪费。所以选择项 G“Still, the best way to cut
back on food loss is to not create it in the first place. (尽管如此,减少食物损失的最好方法还是从一开始就不要
造成食物损失)”符合上下文语境。故选 G。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之成为一篇完整的短文。
When I hear people showing off of a work as yet undone, and trying to anticipate the credit which belongs
only to actual achievement! Call to mind that scene by the riverside and the wise caution of my uncle. Our uncle
who lived with us was a quiet, good-natured man, much given to hunting and fishing; and it was one of the
pleasures of our young life to accompany him on his trips to Great Hill, Brandy-brow Woods, the Pond, and, best of
all, to the Country Brook. We were quite willing to work hard in the cornfield or the dry grass stack (垛) to finish
the necessary day’s labor in season for an afternoon wander through the woods and along the riverside.
I remember my first fishing outing as if it were but yesterday. I have been happy many times in my life, but
never more intensely so than when I received that first fishing pole from my uncle’s hand, and walked with him
through the woods and grasslands. It was a still, sweet day of early summer; the long afternoon shadows of the
trees lay cool across our path; the leaves seemed greener, the flowers brighter, the birds merrier, than ever before.
My uncle, who knew by long experience where the best spots of fish were, considerately placed me at the
most favorable point. I threw out my line as I had so often seen others, and waited anxiously for a bile, moving the
bait (诱饵) in rapid drags on the surface of the water to copy the leap of a frog. Nothing came of it. “Try again,”
said my uncle. Suddenly he bait sank out of sight. “Now for it,” thought I; “here is a fish at last.” I made a strong
pull, and brought up a mess of weeds. Again and again 1 cast out my line with aching arms, and drew it back empty.
I looked at my uncle appealingly. “Try once more,” he said; “we fishermen must have patience.”
注意:
1.续写词数应为 150 左右:
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly something drew my line, and swept off with it into deep water.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
But my uncle was sure that there were more fish in the river.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Suddenly something drew my line, and swept off with it into deep water. Dragging it up, I saw a
fine fish winding in the sun. “Uncle!” I cried, looking back in uncontrollable excitement, “I've got a fish!” “Not
yet,” said my uncle. As he spoke, there was a splash in the water; I had lost my prize. I caught the arrowy sparkle of
a scared fish shooting into the middle of the stream, then my hook hung empty from the line. I sat down on the
nearest stack desperately, and for a time refused to be comforted.
But my uncle was sure that there were more fish in the river. He adjusted my bait, and, putting the pole again
in my hands, told me to try my luck once more. Taking a deep breath to collect myself, I decided to rise from where
I fell. After what seemed like an hour, I finally harvested with patience. “Well done, my boy!” He patted my
shoulder to praise me. How often since I have been reminded of the fish that I did not catch and the wise caution of
my uncle: NEVER BRAG OF YOUR FISH BEFORE YOU CATCH HIM.
