W: Well, it’s been great to meet you too. I hope you keep coming to my shop.
M: Of course.

【答案】17. A 18. C 19. B 20. C
【解析】
【原文】It sounds like a joke, but I first got the idea to invent self-driving vehicles while watching science fiction
movies. At the time, electric cars barely existed, but I already knew that they were the future. Before I decided to
invent the world-changing technologies, I was still finishing my degree in business in my home country. Having
this business background from university did help me quite a bit, but I still needed to learn so much about
engineering after graduation. I spent every day of the following four years to learn about cars and robotics. After
moving and setting up a business in the US, my team created our first self-driving vehicle. But our product wasn’t
available to the public until four years later. Since then, our vehicles have become the best-selling electric cars on
the planet, and we never stopped improving. Partly due to dislike for socializing, I now spend about 100 hours a
week researching new creative solutions to problems. Of course, I will still sell the inventions that I create, but I
will also release the technology to the public. I want a world where all businesses have access to the same
technology, and thus, all people can benefit from human innovation. I’ll never quit expanding my inventions.
Before I die, I’ll give my company to my business partners and my profits from the products to foundations that
help the world.

Amazing landscapes of China’s Xinjiang
Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is located in the central part of the Eurasian Continent, on the northwest
border of China. It covers about one-sixth of China’s total territory. Xinjiang was a key link on the Silk Road and a
hub for east-west cultural exchanges in ancient times.
Attractions in Xinjiang
Karakul Lake
The Karakul is a lake in Akto County along the highway, located 196 km from Kashgar City. Karakul is a very
unusual plateau(高原) lake. In fact, it is the highest lake of the Pamir Plateau, at an altitude of 3,600 m. The view is
stunning, thanks to the surrounding, snow-covered mountains and beautiful reflections in the crystal-clear water.
Tianchi Lake
Tianchi Lake, also known as Heavenly Lake, is located on the northern side of the Bogeda Peak in the
Tianshan mountains. It is 120 km from Urumqi City and only a 90-minute drive, and the center of the Tianchi
scenic area of startling contrasts – an alpine drift lake at an altitude of 1,980 m (6,496 ft) with glistening glaciers on
the mountain peaks nearby when the sun is shining.
Kanas Lake
Kanas Lake is in the Kanas Geopark and is mainly made up of Crouching Dragon Bay, Moon Bay, Immortal
Bay and the interesting mystery of the legendary big red monster fish! The water, surrounded by snow-covered
mountains, decorates the world like a diamond.
Delicious food in Xinjiang
Xinjiang boasts a rich and unique food culture. Breakfast here includes melons, jam and milk tea while lunch
is often served with flour-based delicacies featuring beef and mutton. Dinner usually entails Nang, tea or noodles.
Various products of Xinjiang
Xinjiang specialties include lavender, cotton, tomato, mutton, beef, jujube, and various fruits.
In addition, Xinjiang has the richest mineral resources in China, with 138 different types. Those resources
discovered in other parts of our country accounts for less than a quarter. Nephrite is one of China’s top five famous
jades and most of it is found in Hetian, Xinjiang.
21. Which is the best choice for those near Urumqi City who prefer a challenge of plateau?
A. Kanas Lake B. Karakul Lake C. Heavenly Lake D. the Pamir Plateau

“Where’s Papa going with the ax?” said Fern to her mother as they were setting the table for breakfast.
“Out to the hog house,” replied Mrs. Arable. “Some pigs were born last night.” “I don’t see why he needs an
ax,” continued Fern, who was only eight.
“Well,” said her mother, “one of the pigs is a runt. It’s very small and weak, and it will never amount to
anything. So your father has decided to do away with it.” “Do away with it?” shrieked Fern. “You mean kill it? Just
because it’s smaller than the others?” Mrs. Arable put a pitcher of cream on the table. “Don’t yell, Fern!” she said.
“Your father is right. The pig would probably die anyway.” Fern pushed a chair out of the way and ran outdoors.
The grass was wet and the earth smelled of spring time. Fern’s sneakers were sopping by the time she caught up
with her father.
“Please don’t kill it!” she sobbed. “It’s unfair.”
Mr. Arable stopped walking. “Fern,” he said gently, “you will have to learn to control yourself.” “Control
myself?” yelled Fern. “This is a matter of life and death, and you talk about controlling myself.” Tears ran down
her cheeks and she took hold of the ax and tried to pull it out of her father’s hand.
“Fern,” said Mr. Arable, “I know more about raising a litter of pigs than you do. A weakling makes trouble.
Now run along!” “But it’s unfair,” cried Fern. “The pig couldn’t help being born small, could it? If I had been very
small at birth, would you have killed me?” Mr. Arable smiled. “Certainly not,” he said, looking down at his
daughter with love. “But this is different. A little girl is one thing, a little runty pig is another.” “I see no
difference,” replied Fern, still hanging on to the ax. “This is the most terrible case of injustice I ever heard of.” A
queer look came over John Arable’s face. He seemed almost ready to cry himself.
“All right,” he said.” You go back to the house and I will bring the runt when I come in. I’ll let you start it on a
bottle, like a baby. Then you’ll see what trouble a pig can be.” When Mr. Arable returned to the house half an hour
later, he carried a carton under his arm. Fern was upstairs changing her sneakers. The kitchen table was set for
breakfast, and the room smelled of coffee, bacon, damp plaster, and wood smoke from the stove.
“Put it on her chair!” said Mrs. Arable. Mr. Arable set the carton down at Fern’s place. Then he walked to the
sink and washed his hands and dried them on the roller towel.
Fern came slowly down the stairs. Her eyes were red from crying.
As she approached her chair, the carton wobbled, and there was a scratching noise. Fern looked at her father.
Then she lifted the lid of the carton. There, inside, looking up at her, was the newborn pig. It was a white one. The
morning light shone through its ears, turning them pink.
“He’s yours,” said Mr. Arable. “Saved from an untimely death.
“And may the good Lord forgive me for this foolishness.” Fern couldn’t take her eyes off the tiny pig. “Oh,”
she whispered. “Oh, look at him! He’s absolutely perfect.” She closed the carton carefully. First she kissed her
father, then she kissed her mother. Then she opened the lid again, lifted the pig out, and held it against her cheek.
24. When Fern said “I don’t see why he needs an ax”, she was really ______.
A. anxious about what happened at hog house
B. curious about the pigs born last night
C. making little of father’s behavior
D. preventing father killing the weak pig
25. Why did Mr. Arable tell his daughter to learn to control herself?
A. Because Fern felt unfair about her life.
B. Because Fern was dissatisfied with the ax.
C. Because he was blamed for what he have done.
D. Because he was stopped by his daughter.
26. What made Mr. Arable seem almost ready to cry himself?
A. The most terrible case of injustice.
B. Fern’s persistence of saving the runty pig.
C. The unusual experience of the runty pig.
D. A queer expression coming over his face.
27. What’s the main point the writer is trying to make in the last paragraph?
A. The little girl was content with her father’s decision.
B. Fern was longing to raise the small and weak pig.
C. Lord would forgive Mr. Arable for his foolishness.
D. Mr. Arable felt disappointed about the result.
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. A

【分析】这是一篇记叙文。Arable 要将一只生来就很弱小的猪杀掉，但最终被女儿的所作所为而感动，答
应她不杀小猪。
【24 题详解】
句意猜测题。根据第二段““Out to the hog house,” replied Mrs. Arable. “Some pigs were born last night.” “I
don’t see why he needs an ax,” continued Fern, who was only eight.(“到猪圈去，”阿拉贝尔太太回答。“昨晚
生了几头猪。“我不明白他为什么需要一把斧子，”只有八岁的 Fern 续说)”可知，当 Fern 说“我不明白
他为什么需要一把斧子”时，她真地不理解父亲的行为。故选 C。
【25 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段““Please don’t kill it!” she sobbed. “It’s unfair.”(“请不要杀它！”她抽泣着。“这
是不公平的。”)”可知，因为女儿抽泣着阻止 Arable 杀小猪，所以 Arable 告诉女儿要学会控制自己。故选
D。
【26 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段中的““I see no difference,” replied Fern, still hanging on to the ax. “This is the most
terrible case of injustice I ever heard of.”(“我看不出有什么不同，”Fern 回答着，仍旧抓着斧头不放。“这是
我听到过的最不公正的事情！”)”可知，Fern 坚持要救那头瘦猪，这让 Arable 自己也快要哭出来了。故选
B。
【27 题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的“First she kissed her father, then she kissed her mother. Then she opened the lid
again, lifted the pig out, and held it against her cheek. (她先吻了父亲，然后吻了母亲。然后她又打开盖子，把
小猪举起来，贴在自己的脸颊上)”可知，最后一段主要是讲小女孩对她父亲的决定感到满意。故选 A。
C
Imagine wearing high-tech body armour that makes you super strong and tireless. Such technology, more
specifically called an exoskeleton, sounds like the preserve of the Iron Man series of superhero movies.
Yet the equipment is increasingly being worn in real life around the world. And one
manufacturer---California’s SuitX---expects it to go mainstream. “There is no doubt in my mind that these devices
will eventually be sold at hardware stores,” says SuitX’s founder Homayoon Kazerooni. In simple explanation, an
exoskeleton is an external device that supports, covers and protects its user, giving greater levels of strength and
endurance. Sometimes also referred to as “wearable robots”, they can be battery-powered and computer-operated,
incorporating motors and hydraulics. Or they can be more simple, passive designs that use springs and dampeners.
“Integrating machines with humans opens up a new realm of opportunity,” says Adrian Spragg, an expert on
the technology at management consultancy Accenture. “Many of the early applications have been focused on
military and medical applications, but in the last several years there’s been an explosion of use in a range of cases.”
This expansion, which has come together with rapid advances in the technology, has seen exoskeletons increasingly
used by manufacturing workers. Versions for consumers are also now being developed to help people more easily
do everything from DIY, to walking, climbing stairs, and other daily activities.
One report says sales are now due to rocket as a result. Global exoskeleton revenues are expected to rise from
$392m in 2020 to $6.8bn in 2030, according to a study by ABI Research. SuitX’s “suits” are now being tested by
car manufacturers General Motors and Fiat. Prof Kazerooni, who is also the director of the University of
California’s Berkeley Robotics and Human Engineering Laboratory, says that the primary benefit of the firm’s
exoskeletons is to prevent muscle fatigue. “We’ve shown that muscle activity in the back, shoulder and knees drops
by 50%,” he says. “If muscle activities drop, that means the risk of muscle injury is less. This means that factory or
plant managers get more productivity, their insurance costs are lower, and there are less workdays lost to injury.
There’s less cost and more productivity.”
General Motors is also looking at a battery-powered exoskeleton glove developed by Bioservo. This glove,
called the Iron Hand, has sensors and motors in each finger, which automatically respond to the level of force that
the wearer applies to his or her hand when lifting or gripping something. The glove therefore takes up some of the
strain. BioServo says it can increase the wearer’s hand strength by 20% for extended periods.
28. According to Homayoon Kazerooni, the equipment will go mainstream because _______.
A. the device can give extra strength and endurance
B. the machine will eventually be sold at hardware stores
C. the equipment is increasingly being worn in real life
D. the exoskeleton is an external device that is supportive
29. Which of the following is closest in meaning to “Integrating” in Para. 3?
A. Presenting B. Linking C. Supplying D. Combining
30. What’s Prof Kazerooni’s feeling towards “exoskeleton”?
A. Sympathetic B. Promising C. Concerned D. Astonished
31. Which of the following best summarizes the passage?
A. Wearable robots may help the disabled in the future.
B. The new device will cost less and produce more.
C. The battery-powered exoskeleton will change our life.
D. The Iron Man has really come into our life.
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. B 31. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。世界各地越来越多的人在现实生活中佩戴外骨骼设备，文章对这种设备的功能、
优点、现状和前景进行了介绍。
【28 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第四句“In simple explanation, an exoskeleton is an external device that supports, covers
and protects its user, giving greater levels of strength and endurance.”（简单地说，外骨骼是一种支持、覆盖和保
护使用者的外部设备，赋予使用者更大的力量和耐力。）可知，据 Homayoon Kazerooni 称，这种设备将成为
主流，因为它可以提供额外的力量和耐力。故选 A。
【29 题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段最后一句“Versions for consumers are also now being developed to help people more
easily do everything from DIY, to walking, climbing stairs, and other daily activities.”（针对消费者的版本也正在
开发中，以帮助人们更容易做任何事情，从 DIY，步行，爬楼梯，和其他日常活动。）可知，此处是指将机
器和人结合在一起，所以“Integrating”意为“使结合”。故选 D。
【30 题详解】
观点态度题。根据第四段最后三句“If muscle activities drop, that means the risk of muscle injury is less. This
means that factory or plant managers get more productivity, their insurance costs are lower, and there are less
workdays lost to injury. There’s less cost and more productivity.”（如果肌肉活动减少，那就意味着肌肉受伤的
风险降低了。这意味着工厂或工厂经理的生产率更高，他们的保险成本更低，工伤损失的工作日也更少。
成本更低，生产率更高。）可知，Prof Kazerooni 认为外骨骼很有前景。故选 B。
【31 题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Imagine wearing high-tech body armour that makes you super strong and tireless. Such
technology, more specifically called an exoskeleton, sounds like the preserve of the Iron Man series of superhero
movies.”（想象一下，穿上高科技防弹衣，你会变得超级强壮，不知疲倦。这种技术更具体地称为外骨骼，
听起来像是超级英雄电影《钢铁侠》系列的专利。）和第二段第一句“Yet the equipment is increasingly being
worn in real life around the world.”（然而，世界各地越来越多的人在现实生活中佩戴这种设备。）可知，文章
主要是讲钢铁侠——外骨骼技术——真的走进了我们的生活。故选 D。
D
Elon Musk and his electric car company Tesla have a large following in China－the world’s largest vehicle
market－much to the envy of rivals.
However, a number of potential customers are deciding against placing orders and some owners are refusing
to drive their Teslas to protest the way a customer who complained about an alleged brake failure was treated at the
Shanghai auto show.
On April 19, the opening day of the show, which is held every two years, a woman got on top of a Tesla Model
3 car and shouted that the brakes did not work. She was quickly dragged away by security guards, who attempted to
hide her from visitors with open umbrellas. Footage of the incident taken by onlookers generated more than 150
million views on Sina Weibo within hours.
The protester, who was detained by police for disturbing public order, owns a Tesla Model 3 in Henan
province, and her father was involved in a traffic accident in February while driving the car. The woman claimed
that the crash was caused by a technical problem with the car, but Tesla insisted the accident was due to excessive
speed.
Soon after the protest, Grace Tao, a Tesla vice-president, told reporters: “There is no possibility Tesla will
compromise ... I think she (the protester) is quite professional ... She has contributed to most of the negative news
about Tesla recently.” Faced with mounting pressure, the company softened its stance, issuing a series of late-night
statements. On April 20, it put out an apology and said it was carrying out a “self-inspection”. Next day, it said it
was “working with regulators for investigation”.
On Thursday, Tesla disclosed data about the vehicle that crashed, generated before the accident. The data have
not been independently verified. Events took another turn three days later, when the woman protester, surnamed
Zhang, was released from detention.
In a news analysis, Reuters said Tesla defies industry convention, as it is based on a corporate culture that
rarely admits mistakes. The company has long been accused by customers of responding in an irresponsible manner
to complaints about incidents such as battery fires, unexpected acceleration and failure to provide software updates.
Only two months ago, Tesla promised to “strictly abide by Chinese laws and regulations and always respect
consumer rights “after the State Administration for Market Regulation urged it to heed consumer complaints”.
32. The woman got on top of a Tesla Model 3 car on April 19 to______.
A. protest the way a customer complaining about the brake failure
B. go against placing orders and refuse to drive her Tesla later
C. claim that her father was involved in a traffic accident with his Tesla
D. inform the public that the crash was caused by a technical problem
33. Security guards attempted to hide her from visitors with open umbrellas, because______.
A. she disturbed the public order
B. she shouted to make herself heard

What can we add to make it better?
Why do we think this way? Researchers ____57____(publish) a paper about the human tendency to make
changes through addition in the last journal Nature.
The research team designed a Lego experiment in which ____58____small plastic figure stands under a roof
supported by a single pillar(柱子) in one corner. How would you change the structure ___59___(place) a brick
on the roof without causing the roof to collapse on the plastic figure? Each additional Lego block would cost 10

roof ____62____(direct) to the base.
“Addictive ideas come to mind quickly and easily, ____63____ subtractive (减法的) ideas require more
cognitive (认知的) effort,” co-author of the paper Benjamin Converse told Science Daily. “Because people are

additive solutions without considering subtraction at all.”
【答案】56. that
57. published
58. a 59. to place
60. by 61. simpler
62. directly
63. but 64. ideas
65. accepting
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。研究发现，人类倾向于通过添加来做出改变。
【56 题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：无论我们是在写作、烹饪还是建筑，我们脑海中出现的第一件事是：我们可以添加
什么来使它更好？定语从句中缺少主语，且先行词 thing 被序数词 the first 修饰，所以应用关系代词 that。故
填 that。
【57 题详解】
考查一般过去时。句意：研究人员在上一期《自然》杂志上发表了一篇关于人类倾向于通过添加来做出改
变的论文。根据“in the last journal Nature”可知，此处应用一般过去时。故填 published。
【58 题详解】
考查不定冠词。句意：该研究团队设计了一个乐高实验，在实验中，一个小塑料雕像站在屋角由一根柱子
支撑的屋顶下。此处第一次提到 plastic figure，所以应是泛指，用不定冠词，且 small 的发音以辅音音素开
头，故填 a。
【59 题详解】
考查不定式。句意：你将如何改变结构，在屋顶上放置一块砖，而不会导致屋顶在塑料雕像上倒塌？改变
结构是为了在屋顶上放置一块砖而不会导致屋顶在塑料雕像上倒塌。所以应用不定式作目的状语。故填 to
place。
【60 题详解】
考查介词。句意：研究小组发现，大多数参与者选择通过添加块体来稳定屋顶，以防止屋顶坍塌。此处是
指通过添加块体来稳定屋顶，应用介词 by 表示“通过”。故填 by。
【61 题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意：但事实上，有一个更简单的方法。此处与前面的“添加块体来稳定屋顶”作比较，
是指有一个更简单的方法，应用形容词比较级。故填 simpler。
【62 题详解】
考查副词。句意：去掉原有的柱子，将屋顶直接固定在底座上。修饰动词 fix 应用副词。故填 directly。
【63 题详解】
考查连词。句意：加法的想法很快就会出现，但减法的想法需要更多的认知努力。“Addictive ideas come to
mind quickly and easily”和“subtractive (减法的) ideas require more cognitive (认知的) effort”构成转折关系，且
空格后没有逗号，所以应用转折连词 but。故填 but。
【64 题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：因为人们的行动总是很快，并且按照第一个想到的想法工作，他们最终接受了加法
的解决方案，而根本没有考虑减法。根据定语从句“that come to mind”中的 come 可知，关系词 that 代指的是
名词复数。故填 ideas。
【65 题详解】
考查固定搭配和动名词。句意：因为人们的行动总是很快，并且按照第一个想到的想法工作，他们最终接
受了加法的解决方案，而根本没有考虑减法。end up doing 意为“以……而告终”，为固定搭配，用动名词作
宾语。故填 accepting。

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Ten minutes to go and I could lock the shop’s door behind me. There were still a few customers who couldn’t
decide what to buy. One lady tested all the lipsticks on the shelf. Her friend was busy with the sunglasses. They
must be tourists with lots of time on their hands. I had a fake smile glued on my face as I waited behind the counter
for them to make up their minds. They walked out without buying anything. Then it was ten minutes past 5:00.
They wasted my time.
Sometimes I wondered if this was really what life was about. Working from 8:00am to 5:00pm, I caught just a
glimpse of the sunrise on my way to work every morning. I wished I could stand on that hill and wait for the sun to
rise. It felt like life was slipping through my fingers and that I never enjoyed the little things in life that would make
me happy.
Going home after a day’s work wasn’t much relief. At home, a family was waiting for my attention. While
preparing dinner, I put the laundry in the washing machine and took care of the pets. After dinner, it was time to
wash the dishes while the rest of the family relaxed with their own activities. I wished I could do that, too.
My body was tired. My soul was tired. I couldn’t go on like this. It was my own fault that I didn’t make time
for myself. I had spoiled my family over the years by doing everything by myself. No time for a walk with the dog,
no time to just sit on my own and stare at nothing. Why should I be like this? I needed serious time for myself, time
to recharge my batteries and do things that would make me a better person.
A family meeting was the first step. During the meeting, I explained why I was bad-tempered and asked them
what they thought would solve the problem. Everyone got a turn to come up with ideas for how they could help me
achieve my goal to have at least one hour per day to do what I liked.
注意：
1、续写词数应为 150 左右；
2、请按如下格式在相应的位置作答。
The family was open to practical solutions.

____________________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________
A month has passed since the new rules in the house began, and the plan is working perfectly.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________
【答案】The family was open to practical solutions. “What about having everyone be responsible for cleaning their
own room?” I suggested. “And what about taking turns to cook, do laundry and clean up after dinner?” Their
reaction was quite positive. I created a chart with the days of the week and the chores and with the name of the
responsible family member each day. I was already to see that I would get an hour for myself every day after work.
A month has passed since the new rules in the house began, and the plan is working perfectly. It has given us
more time to spend together, chatting and laughing. I no longer feel like I’m caught in the rat race. For a month now,
I’ve been able to walk seven kilometers up the hill with my dog and watch the sunset after work. Now, I don’t mind
if customers are lingering in the shop when it’s time to lock the door. My smile is no longer fake. It follows that
asking for help is the bravest move we can make.
