主题语境:人与社会 对社会有突出贡献的人物

Would you BET on the future of this man?He is 53 years old.Most of his adult life has been a losing struggle against debt and misfortune.A war injury has made his left hand stop functioning,and he has often been in prison.Driven by heaven-knows-what motives,he determines to write a book.

The book turns out to be one that has appealed to the world for more than 350 years.That former prisoner was Cervantes,and the book was DonQuixote(《堂吉诃 德》).And the story poses an interesting question:Why do some people discover new vitality and creativity to the end of their days,while others go to seed long before?

We’ve all known people who run out of steam before they reach life’s halfway mark.I’m not talking about those who fail to get to the top.We can’t all get there.I’ m talking about people who have stopped learning on growing because they have adopted the fixed attitudes and opinions that all too often come with passing years.

Most of us,in fact,progressively narrow the variety of our lives.We succeed in our field of specialization and then become trapped in it.Nothing surprises us.We lose our sense of wonder.But,if we are willing to learn,the opportunities are everywhere.

The things we learn in maturity seldom involve information and skills.We learn to bear with the things we can’t change.We learn to avoid self-pity.We learn that however much we try to please,some people are never going to love us—an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.

With high motivation and enthusiasm,we can keep on learning.Then we will know how important it is to have meaning in our life.However,we can achieve meaning only if we have made a commitment to something larger than our own little egos(自 我),whether to loved ones,to fellow humans,to work,or to some moral concept.

Many of us equate(视……等同于)“commitment” with such “caring” occupations as teaching and nursing.But doing any ordinary job as well as one can is in itself an admirable commitment.People who work toward such excellence—whether they are driving a truck,or running a store—make the world better just by being the kind of people they are.They’ve learned life’s most valuable lesson.

5.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A.End one’s struggle for liberty. B.Waste one’s energy taking risks. C.Miss the opportunity to succeed.

D.Lose the interest to continue learning. 答案 D

解析推理判断题。根据第三段中的“I’

mtalkingaboutpeoplewhohavestoppedlearningongrowingbecausetheyhaveadoptedthefixe dattitudesandopinionsthatalltoooftencomewithpassingyears.”可知,作者谈论的不是那

些没有到达巅峰的人,而是谈论那些不再学习成长的人,故选 D项。 6.What could be inferred from Paragraph 4?

A.Those who dare to try often get themselves trapped. B.Those who tend to think back can hardly go ahead.

C.Opportunities favour those with a curious mind. D.Opportunities await those with a cautious mind. 答案 C

Many people believe Henry Ford invented the automobile (汽车).But Henry Ford did not start to build his first car until 16.That was eleven years after two Germans developed the world’s first automobile.Many people believe Henry Ford invented the production line that moved a car’s parts to the worker,instead of making the worker move to the parts.That is not true,either.Many factory owners used methods of this kind before Ford.What Henry Ford did was to use other people’s ideas and make them better.And he made the whole factory a moving production line. In the early days of the automobile,almost every car maker raced his cars.It was the best way of gaining public notice.Henry Ford decided to build a racing car.Ford’s most famous race was his first one.It was also the last race in which he drove the car himself.

The race was in 1901,at a field near Detroit.All of the most famous cars had entered,but only two were left:the Winton’s and Ford’s.The Winton was famous for its speed.Most people thought the race was over before it began.

The Winton took an early lead.But halfway through the race,it began to lose power.Ford started to gain.And near the end of the race,he took the lead.Ford won the race and defeated the Winton.His name appeared in newspapers and he became well-known all over the United States.Within weeks of the race,Henry Ford formed a new automobile company.In 1903,a doctor in Detroit bought the first car from the company.That sale was the beginning of Henry Ford’s dream.Ford said,“I will build a motor car for the great mass of people.It will be large enough for the family,but small enough for one person to operate and care for.It will be built of the best materials.It will be built by the best men to be employed.And it will be built with the simplest plans that modern engineering can produce.It will be so low in price that no man making good money will be unable to own one.”

The Model T was a car of that kind.It only cost $850.It was a simple machine that drivers could depend on.Doctors bought the Model T.So did farmers.Even criminals.They considered it the fastest and surest form of

transportation.Americans loved the Model T.They wrote stories and songs about it.Thousands of Model T’s were built in the first few years.

FourSecretstoSteveJobs’Success

How is it that a college dropout,who was once kicked out of his own company,became one of the world’s foremost innovators?

Carmine Gallo lists the four ways Jobs managed to succeed in the face of discouraging circumstances. 1

Do what you love,no matter what it happens to be.

This is what Jobs told Stanford University graduates in a speech in 2005.Gallo says the famous talk show host Rachael Ray agrees with this advice.Rachael Ray does what she loves. 2 She did that because she loved cooking.

Say no to 1,000 things.

Simplifying his business was the key to Jobs’ success,Gallo says.In 1997,when Jobs returned to Apple,Apple was close to bankruptcy(破产).He took 300 products and condensed them to 10 within a two-year period.

3 In his latter years,he decided he would wear the same dress every day so that he didn’t have to think about it.

Kick-start(启动)your brain by doing something new.

Doing new things helped Jobs,in the words of Apple’s own slogan,“Think differently.”

The inspiration for the Apple Store came from the Four Seasons Hotel.That’s why when you walk into an Apple Store,you will not find a cashier. 4 Walk to the back of the store and there’s a bar.It doesn’t serve alcohol,but it collects advice.

5

“For Jobs,it wasn’t just about selling 29 million iPads this summer but entertaining the customers at the same time,” Gallo says.“Whether you run a multi-billion dollar tech company or a pizza restaurant,innovation means creating a new experience for your customers,” Jobs says.

A.Do what you are curious about. B.Create fresh experiences.

C.Instead,you’ll find a doorkeeper.

D.Carmine Gallo says that you can do the same.

E.She was giving cooking lessons at Macy’s for free. F.Simplicity also extends to Jobs’ personal life.

G.Jobs explained that iPad was not just a phone but a lifestyle. 答案与解析

【语篇解读】本文属于说明文,介绍 CarmineGallo列举了乔布斯面对困境,却依然成功 的四个秘诀。

1.D 上一句“CarmineGallo列举了乔布斯面对困境,却依然成功的四个秘诀”。D选项,“你 也可以从这四方面做到”切题,该选项中的“thesame”与上文“fourways”对应。

2.E 本段的小标题就是建议人们做自己喜欢的事情,RachaelRay喜欢做饭,因此她免费教 人们做饭。

3.F 根据后一句“在乔布斯后来的日子,为了不必考虑穿什么,他每天只穿同一款式的衣服” 可以得出本段的大概意思,乔布斯生活得简单。

4.C 上一句“这就是为什么当你走进苹果商店时,你遇见的不是收银员”,C项“相反,你会 遇见迎宾员”与上一句形成对比关系,说明苹果商店的不一样,故选 C项。

5.B 本段主要阐述乔布斯的观点,无论是经营一家数十亿美元的科技公司,还是经营一家比

萨店,都应该创新,给顾客提供新的体验。

【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了一位 90岁的英国女士仍然坚持工作,被 评为“年度女性”的事迹。

1.being 考查非谓语动词。for是介词,后接动词时要用动词-ing 形式。

2.which 考查定语从句。先行词是 thepetshop,关系词在非性定语从句中做宾语,所以 填 which。

3.finally 考查副词。分析句子成分可知,所填的词在句中做状语,所以用副词形式。

4.declared 考查时态。根据下文的“shehadnoplans”可知,此处讲述的是过去发生的事情, 所以用一般过去时。

5.to retire 考查非谓语动词。分析句子成分可知,plans后接动词不定式做定语。

6.have made 考查时态。根据句中的时间状语“overtheyears”可知,句子应用现在完成时。 7.but 考查连词。分析句子结构可知,此处是“not...but...”结构,意为“不是……而 是……”。

8.saying 考查非谓语动词。call和 say有逻辑上的主谓关系,所以用动词-ing 形式来解释 call的内容。

9.a 考查冠词。joke是单数可数名词,此处是泛指,所以填 a。

10.wonderful 考查形容词。所填的词在句中做表语,所以用形容词形式。 Ⅵ.概要写作

主题语境:人与自我 做人与做事

There is a story about a man who lost his legs and left arm in an accident.After the accident,only a finger and thumb on his right hand remained.

He was a brilliant,creative,and educated man.He had gained a lot of experience while travelling around the world,so he became very depressed after his accident.He was afraid that he would spend the rest of his life suffering and would no longer be able to spend his life in a meaningful way.Then,he realised that he still had partial function of his right hand and could still write even though it was very difficult.An idea occurred to him.“Why not write to other people who need encouragement?” He wrote to the prison ministry about sending letters to the prisoners.The prison minister replied,“Writing to the prisoners is acceptable,but your letters will not be answered.”

Filled with excitement,the man knew he could write his letters.He began sending one-way messages of God’s love,hope,strength,and encouragement.He wrote twice a week,testing his strength and ability to the limit.He poured his heart and soul into his words and shared his experience,sense of humour,optimism,and faith.

It was difficult to write those letters,especially without hope of a reply.One day he received a letter from the prison ministry.It was a short note from the officer who monitored and checked the prison mail.

The letter said,“Please write on the best paper you can afford.Your letters are passed from cell to cell until they literally fall to pieces!” No matter what circumstances life may present,we all have unique

experiences,abilities,and God-given talents.We can discover ways to reach others who desperately need messages of encouragement and strength.

解析细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“Theprisonministerreplied,

‘Writingtotheprisonersisacceptable,butyourletterswillnotbeanswered.’”可知,监 狱长告诉故事主人公,写信可以,但是不会收到回信。这句话使用了一般将来时,很肯定地表 明事实不会收到回信。可知,犯人不可以回信。

2.In order to live in a meaningful way,the man began to . A.receive the school education

B.meet the people who are depressed

C.write to other people who need encouragement D.help other people with lost arms and legs 答案 C

‘Whynotwritetootherpeoplewhoneedencouragement?’”以及第四段中的 “Hebegansendingone-waymessagesofGod’slove,hope,strength,andencouragement.”可

知,故事主人公想出了给需要鼓励的人写信的主意,并且在与监狱长确认后,他开始写信。也

就是说为了生活得更有意义,故事主人公开始给需要鼓励的人写信。

3.From the officer’s short note we are told that . A.the man would be offered free paper to write letters on

B.his letters were very popular among the prisoners C.the prisoners eagerly wanted to write back to the man D.some of the prisoners were not satisfied with his letters 答案 B 解析推理判断题。由第六段中的

“Yourlettersarepassedfromcelltocelluntiltheyliterallyfalltopieces!”可知,故事主

人公的信被从一个囚室传到另一个囚室,直到碎成纸屑。可以推出故事主人公的信在犯人之 间很受欢迎。

4.What can be the best title for the passage? A.Special Letters of Encouragement B.Popularity of Special Letters C.Stories about a Humorous Person D.Life in the Prison 答案 A 解析主旨大意题。这是一篇记叙文,文章中心体现在最后一段:无论我们身处什么环境,我们 总有自己的长处,并能找到方法去帮助那些需要鼓励和力量的人。A选项中的

“SpecialLetters”体现了故事主人公的处境,“Encouragement”体现了故事主人公内心的 力量。

(2020山东卷)

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。 The Meredith family lived in a small community.As the economy was in decline,some people in the town had lost their jobs.Many of their families were struggling to make ends meet.People were trying to help each other meet the challenges.

Mrs.Meredith was a most kind and thoughtful woman.She spent a great deal of time visiting the poor.She knew they had problems,and they needed all kinds of help.When she had time,she would bring food and medicine to them.

One morning she told her children about a family she had visited the day before.There was a man sick in bed,his wife,who took care of him and could not go out to work,and their little boy.The little boy—his name was Bernard—had interested her very much.

“I wish you could see him,”she said to her own children,John,Harry,and Clara.“He is such a help to his mother.He wants very much to earn some money,but I don’t see what he can do.”

After their mother left the room,the children sat thinking about Bernard.“I wish we could help him to earn money,”said Clara.“His family is suffering so much.”

“So do I,”said Harry.“We really should do something to assist them.” For some moments,John said nothing,but,suddenly,he sprang to his feet and cried,“I have a great idea!I have a solution that we can all help accomplish(完成).”

The other children also jumped up all attention.When John had an idea,it was sure to be a good one.“I tell you what we can do,”said John.“You know that big box of corn Uncle John sent us?Well,we can make popcorn(爆米花),and put it into paper bags,and Bernard can take it around to the houses and sell it.”

注意:

1.续写词数应为 150左右; 2.请按如下格式作答。

When Mrs. Meredith heard of John’s idea,she thought it was a good one,too.

With everything ready,Bernard started out on his new business.

children were busy popping the corn,while their mother went out to buy the paper bags.When she came back,she brought Bernard with her.Bernard was very glad to join in the work and said,“So good an idea! I’ll try right now.”They worked together until all the corn they prepared was all popped,the paper bags filled and arranged in the basket.

Witheverythingready,Bernardstartedoutonhisnewbusiness.Much sooner than

expected,he returned with an empty basket.He had never earned so much money before in his life.For many weeks,the Meredith family continued to offer popcorn to Bernard.People began to watch for the “little popcorn boy”,and every week he had at least fifty cents,a significant income for him and his family,to take home.All of this was thanks to the good idea that John came up with.

W:Hello everyone.I’m very glad to be here to talk to you.People need to feel secure and comfortable so they can be creative.Well-designed workplaces often create environments that make employees better thinkers.So today,I’ll talk about how to design workplaces that inspire creativity.I hope you can find it useful.First,the colour of the office walls.Decorate your office with green.Other bright colours such as light blue and yellow can also increase creativity.Calmer colours help us concentrate.Green also reminds us of nature,which may help us to relax.Avoid red when you are choosing a colour.While it can give us a feeling of energy,it also affects our ability to analyse information.Then,let’s turn to lighting.Lighting is also important.Too dark,workers can feel sleepy.While,if it is too bright,it can make them feel

anxious.The best kind of lighting is natural light.It makes us happier and more productive.When it comes to artificial lighting,warm colours are the best.But if we need to concentrate,a bluer light is better.Space is another important matter.A company might want to develop a variety of spaces in an office so staff can find privacy if needed,but also work in open areas for creative thinking. 18.Which colour is unsuitable for office walls? A.Green. B.Red. C.Yellow. 答案 B

19.What effect does natural light have on office workers? A.It is good for their eyes. B.It helps them concentrate. C.It makes them feel cheerful. 答案 C

20.Who are most likely to be interested in the talk? A.Managers. B.Painters. C.Teachers. 答案 A

Emma Watson entered our lives as the perfect Hermione Granger in 2001,and nowadays,we’re just as much in love with this charming,intelligent British girl,as ever.You may or may not be a Potter head,but a lot of people are charmed by Emma Watson’s perfection.

Despite being a star performer at the young age of 11,she’s never gone the Hollywood-spoiled-child route.In fact,she made all attempts to stay as normal as possible.She said,“Ignoring fame was my rebellion,in a funny way.I was insistent on being normal and doing normal things.It probably wasn’t advisable to go to college in America and room with a complete stranger.And it probably wasn’t wise to share a bathroom with eight other people in a dormitory.Looking back,I think that was crazy.”

She added,“I was very well-educated.My dad paid for me to go to a very good school,so I worked hard every single day at that school to make him proud of me.And I did,and I still do.”

If we had to imagine what Hermione Granger would have grown up to be like,we would say she’d be the Emma Watson of the Potter universe because there really is

no way to separate the two.In the last few years,Emma has added more feathers to her cap than we imagined being humanly possible,which include actor,scholar,model and UN Women Goodwill Ambassador.In her role as a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador,she’d supported powerful causes to the best of her ability and brought them all the attention they deserve.

Emma Watson gave us the most accurate description of our favourite girl from the Potter universe.“Young girls are told you have to be a delicate princess.Hermione taught them that you can be a warrior.”

【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文,文章主要介绍了《哈利·波特》系列电影中女主角赫 敏·格兰杰的饰演者艾玛·沃特森的故事。

24.After Emma Watson became an actress,she . A.followed the Hollywood child route B.had a preference for a normal life C.became rebellious in a funny way D.went to a good college instead 答案 B

解析细节理解题。根据第二段中“Infact,shemadeallattemptstostayasnormalaspossible” 可知,在艾玛·沃特森成名之后,她坚持过普通的生活,所以选 B项。

25.What does the author mean by saying “Emma has added more feathers to her cap” in Para.4?

A.Emma has earned more titles. B.Emma wears a cap with feathers. C.Emma is expert at designing caps.

D.Emma has been more absorbed in her job. 答案 A

解析句意理解题。根据第四段中

“whichincludeactor,scholar,modelandUNWomenGoodwillAmbassador”可知,她获得了很多 头衔,故选 A项。

26.What can be the best title for the text? A.Emma Watson:You Can Be the Best Actress B.Emma Watson:You Can Be a Warrior C.The Way to Be a Delicate Princess D.The Way to Be a Good Performer 答案 B

解析主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要讲述了艾玛·沃特森虽然已经功成名就,但仍然坚 持过普通的生活。再结合最后一段中的“Hermionetaughtthemthatyoucanbeawarrior”可知,B 项可作为本文的标题。

27.What’s the author’s attitude to Emma Watson? A.Critical. B.Objective. C.Cautious. D.Appreciative. 答案 D

解析推理判断题。通读全文可知,作者在文中多处表达了对艾玛·沃特森的欣赏,故选 D项。 C

Violette Childe,67,is a dining companion who helps serve patients lunches.The role was introduced ten years ago by a dietitian concerning that some patients were not eating their meals.

“Many of our patients are elderly and can be confused by the noisy,busy environment of the hospital and so won’t focus on eating,” explains Yvonne Donglas-Morris,head of volunteering,who oversees the activities of all 528 of the trusty volunteers.“Staff are busy with the clinical side of things,so the dining companions were introduced.They will assist the patients and encourage them to eat.”

Violette,a retired library manager,has been helping out for six years.“It makes me feel a bit more complete,” she says simply.“Helping with the meals frees up the nurses to get on with other things.I believe in being a part of the community and this hospital is part of my community.”

Another key role is played by the discharge volunteers,who offer support to the elderly,especially those aged 70 and over—leaving hospital to return to an empty home.The team has a budget of £10 per person and will pop to the shops and buy milk,bread and a meal to tide them over for the first few hours.They then call the patients regularly,for as long as they need,to check how they are getting on and if they need extra support.

The volunteers in Kingston work from a dedicated office—a small room in one of the buildings on the hospital grounds,where a Christmas tree decorated with baubles (小饰物) bearing the faces of volunteers sits in the corner.“All the volunteers come and gather here;it gets very busy at times,” smiles Nicola

Hutin,67,a discharge support volunteer.A mother of two,and grandmother of four,she was a membership coordinator (协调员) for a trade association until she retired,and has since volunteered at the hospital one morning a week for 18 months. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过讲述志愿者的工作,告诉我们“人多力量 大”。

28.What can we learn about dining companions? A.Their working conditions are noisy. B.They are great assistants for doctors. C.They often make patients more nervous.

D.The occupation existed more than ten years ago. 答案 A

解析细节理解题。根据第二段中

“Manyofourpatientsareelderlyandcanbeconfusedbythenoisy,busyenvironmentofthehos pitalandsowon’tfocusoneating”可知,他们的工作环境很嘈杂。 29.What does Violette think of her work? A.She finds it tiring and boring.

B.She finds it easy to complete her work.

C.She believes it gives her a sense of belonging.

D.She believes helping patients with meals is to free up the community. 答案 C

解析推理判断题。根据第三段中“Itmakesmefeelabitmorecomplete”和

“Ibelieveinbeingapartofthecommunityandthishospitalispartofmycommunity.”可知,她 相信自己成为社区的一分子,也就是她觉得她的工作会给她一种归属感。 30.What does a discharge volunteer do for the patients? A.Raise money for the elderly. B.Pay a visit to them at home. C.Buy daily necessities for them.

D.Ring to check their health condition. 答案 D

解析细节理解题。根据第四段中

“Theythencallthepatientsregularly,foraslongastheyneed,tocheckhowtheyaregetting onandiftheyneedextrasupport.”可知,志愿者给病人打电话来检查他们的健康状况。 31.Which of the following can best describe the theme of the text? A.It is never too old to learn. B.Many hands make light work. C.Health is better than wealth.

D.God helps those who help themselves. 答案 B

解析主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章讲述了志愿者的工作。结合最后一段中的

“Allthevolunteerscomeandgatherhere;itgetsverybusyattimes”可知,本文告诉我们的是 “人多力量大”,所以选 B项。

Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm were two young men from Germany who loved a good story.As university students,they became interested in folktales—traditional stories that people memorized and told again and again.They began to collect traditional

folktales from storytellers all over Germany.Many were similar to stories told in France,Italy,Japan,and other countries.Between 1812 and 1814,the brothers

published two books in German.These included stories like “Hansel and Gretel” and “Little Red Riding Hood”.

Despite the fact that Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm are often associated withSnowWhite and Rapunzel,the brothers didn’t actually write any of those stories.In fact,the stories existed long before the two men were born in Germany in the mid-1780s.The fairy tales,in fact,were part of a rich oral tradition—passed down from generation to generation,often by women seeking to pass the time during household chores.In 1812,Jacob and Wilhelm published the stories as part of a collection titled NurseryandHouseholdTales,or what is now known as Grimm’ sFairyTales.

The Grimm brothers’ tales were about traditional life and beliefs.For

example,forests are common in Germany,and this image often appears in the Grimms’ stories.In the past,many people believed forests were dangerous places.In the Grimms’

stories,a forest is the home of evil witches,talking animals,and other magical beings.

Although most people today think of these stories as fairy tales for children,the brothers first wrote them for adults.Many of their early tales were dark and a little scary.Later,the brothers changed the text of some of the original stories.They “softened” many of the tales and added drawings.This made them more appropriate(合 适的) for children.Like the early tales,though,each story still has a moral:work hard,be good,and listen to your parents.

Actually,university-trained philologists (语言学者) and librarians,Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm published more than fairy tales.They wrote books about mythology,and published scholarly works on linguistics and medieval studies.

(2020山东卷)

Some individuals are born with a gift for public speaking. 36 Do you want to be a good public speaker?Here are some principles you must master.

People want to listen to someone who is interesting,relaxed and comfortable.Too often,when you stand up to give a speech,you focus on the “public” at the expense of the “speaking.” 37 Focus on the speaking.Talk directly to your audience,be yourself and make a connection.

Even the most successful public speaker will make mistakes.Yet,the only one who cares about any mistake is the one who is speaking.People’s attention wanders constantly.In fact,most people only absorb about 20 percent of a speaker’s message.So,don’t stop speaking when you make a mistake unless it’s a truly serious one. 38

Your goal is not to be a perfect public speaker. 39 And like everything else in life,that takes practice.Remember,even world champion athletes practice their skills on a consistent basis.

40 It’s rare to hear someone say,“I wish that speaker had spoken longer.”On the other hand,you probably can’t count the times that you’ve thought,“I’m glad that talk is over.It seemed to go on forever!” So surprise your audience.Always make your presentation just a bit shorter than anticipated.It’s better to leave your listeners wishing for more than shifting restlessly in their seats waiting for your speech finally to end.

A.Do the opposite.

B.You want to be an effective public speaker. C.You don’t need to apologize for a minor slip.

D.When it comes to public speaking,less is usually more. E.The objective of most speeches is to benefit the audience.

F.Take the fear out of public speaking by focusing on your listeners.

G.However,the majority of people are effective speakers because they train to be. 答案与解析

【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述成为有影响力的演说家的几种技巧。 36.G 此句为过渡句,承上启下,根据上文提到有些人天生就有在公众面前讲话的能力,联系 下文的“你想成为一名出色的演讲者吗?”两句前后存在明显的转折关系。故选 G项。

37.A 此句为过渡句,承上启下,根据上文提到“你站起来演讲时,聚焦于听众,而不是如何表 达”以及后一句“要聚焦于自己的表达。”由此可判断,横线处为明确表态,与前面所述相反。 故选 A项。

38.C 此句为总结句。本段提到,即使最成功的演说家都会犯错,人们的注意力会不断转移。 大多数人只能理解演说者 20%的信息。所以即使出了错也不要停下来,“你没有必要为犯小 错而道歉”。aminorslip与前面 amistake同义。故选 C项。

39.B 此句为过渡句。前面提到你的目标不是成为一名完美的演说家,后面一句讲“同生活 中的其他事情一样,那需要大量的训练。”由此可知,“你想要成为一名有影响力的演说家” 为最佳答案。故选 B项。

40.D 此处考查主题句。根据后面的内容可知,人们很少希望演讲的内容冗长,尤其是

“Alwaysmakeyourpresentationjustabitshorterthananticipated.”一句是很好的概括。 故选 D项。

【语篇导读】这是一篇记叙文。主要记叙了一位画家画画栩栩如生,有一天他将画送给 宰相时,这位睿智的老人告诉他去漓江旅行——也许他可以从世界上最伟大的艺术家那里学 到一些东西。画家最后发现这位世界上最伟大的艺术家就是大自然母亲。

56.whose 考查定语从句引导词。此处为性定语从句修饰先行词 artist,且定语从句中 缺少定语,故用 whose引导。

57.finest 考查最高级。结合空前出现的 allgreatartists可知,这里表示“呈现出他们最 好的作品”,故用形容词的最高级。

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给的段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Though it is one of the faded memories of my life today,there are times when I remember his face clearly,especially his eyes.As he had yellow spots on his eyes we called him Spotty.He would have been a stray (流浪) dog,until he came to me.

I was seven years old.My dad had just got a new job in Nasik.We had moved into a rented house.It was raining very heavily on the day we moved.

It was a cold dark night.We had our meal and went to sleep.Somehow at midnight I heard some strange sounds outside the main door.I gathered courage and looked out through the window and I was really amused with what I saw outside.

There was a small puppy lying on an old doormat which my mother had put outside the door.It was wet and trembling.At first it was difficult to see the little one.It was the yellow spots on its eyes that made me realise its presence.

It was trying to get under the doormat to avoid the cold air outside and it had managed to get in as I could see only its head outside the doormat.Was it sick or injured?

I felt pity for the poor soul.I went in and came out with an old towel.I went near the innocent one and held it in my hand and wiped the puppy till he had become dry.I took him into my room and made a bed for him with a woolen blanket and a small pillow.He seemed very healthy and comfortable in his new bed as he went to sleep immediately.

The next morning,everyone in the family came to know about the unusual guest.“Shall we keep him with us?” I questioned my mom.

Like any other parents would,my parents first totally refused my idea but my sister and I convinced them to keep Spotty.

Slowly Spotty got on with everyone and became one of the family members. 注意:1.续写词数应为 150左右; 2.请按如下格式作答。

One day,Spotty returned from his daily walk with a broken leg.

Almost a year later,one midnight we heard Spotty barking breathlessly.

参考范文

Oneday,Spottyreturnedfromhisdailywalkwithabrokenleg.He came to my room and sat

near me.It was then that I saw his hind leg was injured and was bleeding.I called out my mother and she quickly tied a bandage around his leg and gave him food to eat.I was very upset.But the next day,Spotty was up to his usual pranks though he limped a bit.After this incident my relation with Spotty became more intense.I really admired him a lot for his courage.

Almostayearlater,onemidnightweheardSpottybarkingbreathlessly.We came out and saw that he was barking continuously heading somewhere.After some time Spotty became quiet.I patted him on his back and came inside.The next day morning,my heart skipped a beat when I didn’t see Spotty.I searched for him in each and every corner but he was nowhere.And this time he had gone and would never come back.I cried and waited for him.We waited for one long week.But there were no signs of him.Then one day my dad got transferred to Mumbai.We shifted back to Mumbai.What would have happened to Spotty?Would he have died?These were the only questions in my mind,but they all remained unanswered forever.

Ever felt confused by the sign language used by disabled people?Here is the “helping hand” you need.Four Ukrainian students have created a pair of gloves that helps people with hearing and speech problems communicate with others.The gloves are equipped with sensors that recognise sign language and translate it into a text on a smartphone.Then the smartphone changes the text to spoken words.

GoogleGlasses Google Glasses are like a computer built into the frame of a pair of glasses.With its 1.3-centimetre display,the glasses allow you to surf the Internet and make calls without even lifting a finger.The glasses also have a camera and GPS mapping system.Users can take and share photos,check maps and surf the Internet just by looking up,down,left and right.

IndoorClouds

It’s not virtual.That’s a real world.Dutch artist Smilde managed to create a small but perfect white cloud in the middle of a room using a fog machine.But it required careful planning—the temperature,humidity(湿度)and lighting all had to be just right.Once everything was ready,the cloud formed in the air with the machine.But it only lasted for a short while.

Wingsuits

The suit fulfills your dreams of flying like a bird.Well,not exactly flying,but gliding(滑翔)through the air.It increases the surface area of the human body,which makes it easier for people to float in the air.Fliers wearing wingsuits can glide one kilometre in about 30 seconds.

A new Magic Bench designed by Disney Research lets you interact (互动) with lovely animated (动画的) character—and no special glasses or earphones are required.Instead,the complete environment—the seat,the sitter and the cartoon characters—is mirrored on a screen opposite the bench making it possible for others to watch the scene unfold.

How does the illusion work?A camera and sensor catch images and gather depth information about physical objects—the bench and the person.And then a computer translates them into the 3D animations.Meanwhile sensors of touch built into the bench deliver shaking that is happening at the same time and speed to animated actions on the screen,creating the illusion that the animated figures are occupying real-world space next to the user.

“Our goal for this project was:hear characters coming,see them enter the space,and feel them sit next to you,” said Moshe Mahler,principal digital artist at Disney Research.Unlike the traditional mobile technology,one of whose

limitations is that only a single user can see its illusion,the Magic Bench allows groups of people to gather in a single environment and collectively participate in an augmented-reality (扩充实境) experience,all at the same time.

In a video show,a small cartoon donkey runs into view and kicks the bench,causing sharp sound and making the seated person jump in surprise.Another test shows two people on the bench,reacting as they “feel” an animated rabbit skip up beside them and jump up and down.When a user passes his hand over the rabbit,a shadow moves across its head,as though it were occupying the same physical space as the person next to it.

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。迪斯尼公司设计出了一种新的“魔法椅”。坐上这种椅 子不需要使用特殊眼镜或耳机,在观看影视作品时,画面可以与人互动。 5.WhatdoestheMagicBenchneedtoworkproperly? A.Specialglasses. B.Earphones. C.Amirror. D.Ascreen. 答案 D

解析细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句可知 theMagicBench需要一块屏幕才能正常发挥作用, 故选 D项。

6.What does the underlined word “illusion” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A.The shaking that is happening. B.The 3D animations on the screen. C.The figures about physical objects. D.The interaction with animated figures. 答案 D

解析词义猜测题。根据下文

“Acameraandsensorcatchimagesandgatherdepthinformation...areoccupyingreal-world spacenexttotheuser.”可知摄像机和传感器捕捉图像,收集关于椅子及人的深度信息。然后 由电脑把它们转换成 3D动画。与此同时,内置在椅子里的触摸传感器可以将震动同时同速传 送到屏幕上,从而产生动画人物占据用户旁边真实空间的错觉。故可知画线单词意思为“与 动画人物的互动;错觉”。故选 D项。

7.How’s the Magic Bench different from the traditional technology? A.Its fantasy can be seen only by a single user. B.It is designed to create more animated characters.

C.It allows many people to experience the fantasy together. D.Its user and the animated character occupy the same space. 答案 C 解析细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知传统的移动技术有局限性,其中之一就是只有一 个用户可以看到这种互动,MagicBench允许一群人聚集在一个环境中,并在同一时间内集体 参与互动体验。即 MagicBench与传统技术的不同在于它能让许多人一起互动体验。故选 C 项。

8.Which is the best title of the text? A.Magic Bench Puts You in the Picture B.Audience Become Cartoon Characters

C.Entertainment Industry Enters a New Stage D.Disney’s Cartoon Figures Come into Reality 答案 A

解析主旨大意题。根据文章第一句

“AnewMagicBenchdesignedbyDisneyResearchletsyouinteractwithlovelyanimatedcharac ter”可知,迪斯尼公司设计的“魔法椅”使人们在观看影视作品时,可以与画面互动。故选 A

项。

If you could travel in time,where would you go?Perhaps you would watch an original performance of a Shakespeare’s play in Elizabethan England?What about hanging out with Laozi in the Spring and Autumn Period?Or maybe you’d voyage far ahead of the present day to see what the future holds.

The possibility of time travel is indeed appealing.Stories exploring the subject have been around for hundreds of years.Perhaps the best known example is science fiction novel TheTimeMachine,which was written by H.G.Wells and published in 15 for the first time.It was adapted into at least two feature films of the same name,as well as two television versions,and a large number of comic book adaptations.It is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposefully and selectively.The term “time machine”,coined by Wells,is now universally used to refer to a vehicle transporting people into the far future.

But could time travel actually be possible?Some scientists say yes,in theory.They propose using cracks in time and space called “wormholes”,which could be used as shortcuts to other periods.Einstein’s theory of relativity allows time travel in extreme circumstances.And British physicist Stephen Hawking said you could

travel into the future with a really fast spaceship—going at nearly the speed of light.Though building such a spaceship would of course be no simple task.

Even if you could travel into the past,there is something called the

“grandfather paradox”.It asks what would happen if a time traveller were to go back in time and have his own grandfather killed for some reason,and therefore prevent himself from being born.If the time traveller wasn’t born,how would he travel back in time?

And would you really like to visit the future?In H.G.Wells’ book,the main character travels into distant time where he arrives at a beach and is attacked by giant crabs.He then voyages 30 million years into the future where the only living thing is a black object with tentacles(触角).If that’s what’s in store,maybe we are better just living in the present day after all.

【语篇解读】时光穿梭可能实现吗?有些科学家认为理论上是可能的。

斯蒂芬·霍金说你可以用快速的宇宙飞船到未来旅行。由此可知,两个人的理论证明了时间 旅行的可能性,所以选 D项。

3.In Paragraph 4,“grandfather paradox” probably refers to the idea that .

A.the traveller is prevented from meeting his grandfather B.the traveller goes back in time to seek for his grandfather

C.the grandfather’s death makes the traveller’s birth impossible D.The reunion of the traveller and his grandfather brings happiness 答案 C 解析推理判断题。根据第四段提到的

It is early in the morning and I’ve hardly caught any shut-eye.My breakfast of eggs,bread and strong coffee will keep me awake and alert before lunch.After lunch,I will face an afternoon of yawning in the office.Sometimes I feel uneasy about this situation but I am sure that I am not alone,for it is not too much to say that we all seem to be yawning more often.Are we turning into a generation of insomniacs (患失眠症的人)?How is modern life influencing our sleep patterns? We can start by blaming the light bulb and other forms of man-made light.Experts say that on average people go to bed and wake up two hours later than the previous generation.Then,there are the computers.Research led by Professor Charles Czeisler of Harvard Medical School has shown that people who read electronic books before going to bed take longer time to fall asleep.They have lower levels of melatonin,a chemical which controls our body clock.And they’re less active in the

morning.Professor Czeisler said,“In the past 50 years,there has been a decrease in average sleep length and quality.Since more people are choosing electronic devices for reading,communication and entertainment,especially teenagers who already experience serious sleep loss,research on the long-term influence of these devices on health and safety is urgently needed.”

So the first thing to do if you want to have a restful night is leave computers out of the bedroom.The earlier you get your fingers off the keyboard,the sooner you

tend to fall asleep.Avoid alcohol,as it might reduce our cycles of the “rapid eye movement” sleep,when our brains process the information we have received during the day.It prevents our brain activity from going well.And do not eat nuts or cheese in the evening.

After that,if you still cannot sleep,start counting sheep.Maybe that is the best way to avoid another afternoon of yawning in the office.

参考范文

Modern people suffer from sleeplessness and consequently get into a state of tiredness easily.(要点 1) This phenomenon results from the negative effects of artificial light and computers.(要点 2) So in order to solve the problem,people are advised to reject computers,resist alcohol as well as refuse nuts or cheese before bedtime.(要点 3)Even counting sheep may help solve the problem in some way.(要点 4)

主题语境:人与社会 科学与技术 Researchers at the University of Chicago have trained an artificial intelligence system to write fake(虚假的)reviews on Yelp,a website showing customers reviews on shopping or something else,and it’s pretty hard to tell them apart from a human review.

Their study,which will be presented at the ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security in October,aimed to stress how easily these systems can write reviews like humans and how damaging they can become if they’re not monitored properly.

Since many small businesses rely on online reviews to help grow and keep their reputation,a future where someone—like a rival or angry customer—could crazily fill their page with negative reviews written by a machine is pretty worrying. And,according to the research team,the threat goes far beyond a bunch of fake reviews on Yelp.“In general the threat is bigger,” Ben Y.Zhao,one of the authors of the study,said.“I think the threat towards society is large and it really misleads users and shakes our belief in what is real and what is not.I think that’s going to be even unimaginable.”

To test how believable these reviews came across,the researchers invited 40 volunteers and had AI generate five fake reviews for 40 actual restaurants.The volunteers were asked how useful they thought the reviews were and whether or not they thought they were fake.The AI reviews ranked as “effectively

indistinguishable” from real reviews,according to the study.Further,the fake reviews were given a 3.15 “usefulness” rating,compared to a 3.28 rating for human reviews.

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。芝加哥大学的研究人员已经培训出了一种人工智能(AI) 系统,在 Yelp网站上编写虚假评论,足以乱真。其目的是强调这些系统可以很容易地写出像 人类写的一样的评论,如果它们没有被恰当地运用,它们会变得具有破坏性,而威胁远远不止 如此。

B.Itcantelltherealreviewsfromthefakeones. C.Itcanwritehuman-likereviews. D.Itcaneasilydamagethebusinesses. 答案 C

解析细节理解题。根据文章第一段可知,芝加哥大学的研究人员培训了一种人工智能系统,让 它在 Yelp网站上撰写虚假评论,很难把它们与人类的评论区分开。由此可知,这种新的人工 智能系统可以撰写出像人类写的一样的评论。

2.What does the underlined word “rival” mean in the passage? A.A person who respects you deeply. B.A person who competes with you.

C.A person who loves to give fake reviews.

D.A person who can control you from a distance. 答案 B 解析词义猜测题。根据文章第三段可知,由于许多小企业依赖在线评论来帮助成长和保持声 誉,未来有人可能会疯狂地用机器写的负面评论填满它们的页面,这是相当令人担忧的。由此 可知画线单词所在部分 likearivalorangrycustomer是 someone的同位语,对其进行解释说 明。根据上下文语境以及生活常识可以判断出,企业面对的是顾客和竞争对手两类人。因此 rival可以理解为竞争对手。

3.What can we infer from Ben Y.Zhao’s remarks?

A.Artificial intelligence can put the society in danger. B.The artificial intelligence is only used by the researchers. C.Ben Y.Zhao is optimistic about the further development of artificial intelligence.

D.The artificial intelligence will help people shake. 答案 A 解析推理判断题。根据文章第四段中

“‘Ingeneralthethreatisbigger,’”BenY.Zhao,oneoftheauthorsofthestudy,said. ‘Ithinkthethreattowardssocietyislargeanditreallymisleadsusersandshakesourbelie finwhatisrealandwhatisnot.Ithinkthat’sgoingtobeevenunimaginable.’”可知,他认为 AI智能能够误导用户明辨是非的能力,会对社会带来不可想象的威胁。 4.What is the best title for the passage? A.Suggestions on Giving Reviews

B.How to Tell the Fake Reviews

C.Development of AI in Review on Yelp D.AI is Coming to Steal Your Reviews 答案 D

解析主旨大意题。通读全文可知,芝加哥大学的研究人员已经培训出了一种人工智能(AI)系 统,在 Yelp网站上编写虚假评论,足以乱真,其目的是强调这种系统可以很容易地写出像人 类写的一样的评论,如果它们没有被恰当地运用,它们会变得具有破坏性,而威胁远远不止如 此。D选项“AIisComingtoStealYourReviews.”体现了这一中心思想。 Ⅴ.应用文写作

LifeBackonEarth

It is 7 am in the morning and the alarm reminds me once again to prepare for the school.It is a beautiful day with clear sky and lots of bright sunshine.But I

don’t have time to soak into this because my school vehicle will come sharp at 8 and in case I miss,my parent will give me a beating.So better run.

My school bus just took off and drove past the residential towers.It takes only 5 minutes to reach the school where each of us will have designated routines to follow and any deviation will be caught on CCTV and reported back to my parents online on their desk.After all,it is the year 2300.

Oh yes!We are the 4th generation people living on Europa in a habitable space which has been created specifically for us by man in the 22nd century.The earth became dangerous for living due to increasing pollution which our forefathers created and hence mankind had to look for other places for a living.All over the world,a handful of people were selected and my great grandparents traveled all the way to this place to continue a life.

It is 12 pm and lunchtime.Today we were served some delicious cream and

chocolates.These are made on planet Mars these days and brought here directly.I am feeling a little sleepy but my robotic teacher won’t give me a break and also our results will be out today.I am feeling a little tensed.

Oh my God!I have come first in my class,feeling over the moon(Or,over the Europa).And,you won’t believe me-I have got a chance to visit the earth along with others on a day trip.I am so excited about the trip and my parents are equally so.I am carrying my latest camera to catch every moment of the journey.

Finally we are on the earth after the 4 hours’ journey and we are in our organo-synthetic suit to protect against the harmful environment where once mankind took their first breath.

注意:

1.续写词数应为 150左右; 2.请按如下格式作答。

There are still some colonies of humans spreading across the globe mostly in the triangular land mass (historians say it Africa)and I am very eager to see them closely.

arrival,we found ourselves deep in hazy atmosphere,which,as my robot guide tells me,is the result of air pollution.We were almost out of breath,so we had to look for some places where we could breathe.How could mankind survive here? I

wondered.Luckily,we escaped and landed near a school,where some crazy kids are running around a ball on an open ground,shouting “Goal,Goal,Goal” all the time.My robot guide told me that it was called “football”.The most popular game on the

earth? I thought of my game of“Alien Invasion” which is more exciting.Then we continued our trip...

Itisgettingdarkerandwehadtogoback.While back,I still thought about the air pollution,the dirty water,the bare land on the earth.I can’t understand why mankind didn’t care about their home.Though I carried my camara,I took few pictures.The journey to the earth made me sad for those who live in that place.

What would you do if you could see into the future?And more importantly,what would you do if you weren’t happy with what you saw?These are the questions explored in Disney’s movie,Tomorrowland.

Tomorrowland tells the story of a wide-eyed dreamer named Casey as she follows

her curiosity down a path of adventure and danger.When a strange sign shows an alternate(交替的) reality,Casey begins a magical journey into another world.As she struggles to make sense of this new world,Casey meets a scientist named

Frank.Together they carry out a task to uncover the mysteries of a land that exists between time and space:Tomorrowland.

According to Britt Robertson,the entire movie has been filled with secrecy.In fact,she had to audition(试镜) many times for the part of Casey before she was even allowed to read the script(剧本).Robertson says that being a part of Tomorrowland has given her a more positive outlook on the future.“I always think about going green and trying to help the world with things I can do,” she told TFK.“I think the greatest things we can do to help are simple things.The small stuff counts.”

Robertson auditioned for it for a very long time before she even read the script.Once she read the script,she just loved how full the story was.She was satisfied with it.She felt happy,like she had just been on an adventurous ride.She was also sad,joyful,and hopeful.She felt a mix of emotions after reading the script and it really got her thinking and it made her want to be a more positive person.She was very happy when she found out she got the role.It felt like all her hard work paid off.

【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了迪士尼影片《明日世界》,影片中的大眼睛姑娘给观众留 下了深刻的印象,她就是凯西的扮演者布丽特妮·罗伯森。

Attitudes toward new technologies often fall along generational lines.That is,generally,younger people tend to outnumber older people on the front end of a technological shift.

It is not always the case,though.When you look at attitudes toward driverless cars,there doesn’t seem to be a clear generational divide.The public overall is split on whether they’d like to use a driverless car.In a study last year,of all people surveyed,48 percent said they wanted to ride in one,while 50 percent did not.

The fact that attitudes toward self-driving cars appear to be so steady across generations suggests how varying the shift to driverless cars could be.Not everyone wants a driverless car now—and no one can get one yet—but among those who are open to them,every age group is similarly involved.

Actually,this isn’t surprising.Whereas older generations are sometimes

reluctant to adopt new technologies,driverless cars promise real value to these age groups in particular.Older adults,especially those with limited moving or difficulty driving on their own,are one of the classic use-cases for driverless cars.

This is especially interesting when you consider that younger people are generally more interested in travel-related technologies than older ones.

When it comes to driverless cars,differences in attitude are easily noticeable based on factors not related to age.College graduates,for example,are particularly interested in driverless cars compared with those who have less education.59 percent of college graduates said they would like to use a driverless car compared with 38 percent of those with a high-school diploma or less.

Where a person lives matters,too.More people who live in cities and suburbs said they wanted to try driverless cars than those who lived in rural areas.

While there’s reason to believe that interest in self-driving cars is going up across the board,a person’s age will have little to do with how self-driving cars can become mainstream.Once driverless cars are actually available for sale,the early adopters will be the people who can afford to buy them.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项新科技——无人驾驶汽车。这项科技 受到各个年龄段的人的欢迎。

Studies have shown most people fail to realise how much time they spend on their smartphones each day.

Frank and Amelia’s family were put to a test,using a free app called

“Moment-screen Time Tracker”.The Vascellaros—Frank,Amelia,14-year-old twins Frankie and Joe,and 17-year-old Sam—all said they did not really know they were spending so much time on their phones each day.

“Honestly,I don’t feel like I’m on my phone a lot,” Amelia Vascellaro said.Amelia was on her phone far less often than Frank,according to the app.While Amelia spent about an hour per day on the phone,Frank spent close to four hours on his phone—which came as a shock to him.The children’s times varied but they often spent more than a couple of hours on the phone as well.

Minneapolis-based Dr Kirsten Lind Seal sees phone usage come up a lot among families.Lind Seal said many family members’ phone use has become problematic. “If we hear more than once,‘Do you have to be on your phone right now?Can you please put your phone down?Did you hear what I said?’ it may be a sign that it is negatively influencing our family relationships and our daily lives,” she said. Lind Seal said actually paying attention to how much time one spends on the phone is a good first step in deciding when to put it down.

She asks parents to encourage more face-to-face communication for teens and young adults as they continue developing their social and emotional skills.“What we find is that we are really losing out on empathy—the ability to understand other people’s feelings and problems——when we spend a lot of time on our smartphones to communicate with other people,”she said. 【语篇解读】本文是议论文。通过使用一款应用软件跟踪发现,很多人没有意识到自己 每天花费很多时间使用手机。文章建议人们放下手机,应该进行更多的面对面的交流。 32.How did the families tested by the app feel about the test results? A.Satisfied. B.Doubtful. C.Uninterested. D.Astonished. 答案 D

解析推理判断题。根据第二段中

“allsaidtheydidnotreallyknowtheywerespendingsomuchtimeontheirphoneseachday.”可

知,Vascellaro一家对这个测试结果感到惊讶,他们没有想到自己每天花费那么多的时间使 用手机。

33.Why did Lind Seal mention the three questions in Para 5? A.To encourage people to live a simple life. B.To explain the signs of problematic phone use. C.To show the importance of close relationships. D.To ask people if they use phones too much. 答案 B

解析推理判断题。由第四段中“LindSealsaidmanyfamilymembers’

phoneusehasbecomeproblematic.”可知,LindSeal提出这三个问题是为了说明我们过多使 用手机。

34.What did Lind Seal want to convey in the last paragraph? A.We should make more face-to-face communication.

B.We can understand each other better using smartphones. C.Our ability of empathy is strengthened by smartphones. D.Smartphone usage improves the teens’ emotional skills. 答案 A

解析细节理解题。根据最后一段中

“Sheasksparentstoencouragemoreface-to-facecommunicationforteensandyoungadultsa stheycontinuedevelopingtheirsocialandemotionalskills.”和引述的话可知,我们应该多 进行面对面的交流。

35.Where is this text most likely from? A.A diary. B.A guidebook. C.A novel. D.A magazine. 答案 D 解析推理判断题。通读全文,本文从一项研究入手,讲述人们对手机的依赖,最后建议人们应 该进行更多的面对面的交流,故此篇文章最有可能来自杂志。

第二节(共 5小题;每小题 2.5分,满分 12.5分)

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。

Futurologists are making a lot of predictions about our future life. 36 By 2050,some futurologists foresee that some “talking” buildings will appear in our life.

By the middle of the century,it’s believed that buildings will be able to “talk” to people through various sensors when the heating needs to be turned on. 37 Instead,a lot of networks will appear,which can be compared to a human nervous system.In the next 30 years,buildings will be made from concrete plastics and shape-changing materials.All of them can heal themselves at that time. 38 there will be a need for new kinds of elevators,through which vehicles could even travel into the buildings.German engineers have already started working on such technology called Multi. By mid-century,scientists believe that buildings will be miles tall.Some of them may be very large and they can function as small cities.By comparison,at present,the world’s tallest building,the Burj Khalifa in Dubai,measures 829.8 metres high. 39

their windows will be replaced by virtual screens.In this way,people can choose any view as they like.

At height extremes,a London Spaceport is also likely to come into being by 2050 as the space industry develops very quickly.There is a huge cost advantage going to space from as high a base as possible. 40

A.As cities are being very crowded,

B.As a result,there will be no switches.

C.As the future building can rise through the clouds,

D.As architects are racing to develop the world’s tallest buildings,

E.They are predicting how we will travel,work and live in the next 30 years. F.Therefore,a spaceport is very likely to be over 10km,using carbon-based materials. G.What is more likely,though,is that planes will become smarter and may even become autonomous. 答案与解析

【语篇解读】未来学家们正在对我们的未来生活做很多预测,他们预测未来 30年我们将 如何旅行、工作和生活。

36.E 根据上文提到的“未来学家们正在对我们的未来生活做很多预测”可知,E项“他们 预测未来 30年我们将如何旅行、工作和生活”可承接上文。 37.B 根据上文的“willbeableto‘talk’

topeople...whentheheatingneedstobeturnedon”可知,B项是上文的结果。

38.D 根据下文的“therewillbeaneedfornewkindsofelevators...”可知,D项可作为过渡, 引出下文。

39.C 根据下文的“theirwindows”可知,上文应该提到高楼,所以选 C项。D项虽提到 “theworld’stallestbuildings”,但是和下文无法衔接。

40.F 本段提到“aLondonSpaceport”,F项和上文构成因果关系,而且 spaceport为同词复 现。

Afterwards I went to a cafe to do some paper work and had a sandwich 46 heading off to one of my friends’ party.I noticed there was an elderly lady who was looking for a(n) 47 table.Since there were no empty tables,I pushed my papers aside and 48 to her.She understood,and then came to sit across from me.That then led me to get to listen to her 49 World War Two survivor’s life story( She is 84 years old !).It was such a gift to share lunch with her! 50 I had to leave after a

while,but it was so lovely to have lunch with a 51 and feel connected to her.As she said,“The only things that 52 in life are health,family and 53 ”.

As I was to a friend’s party,I couldn’t help but reflect on the beauty of the day in all of the interactions I had,and then I was just shocked by this full rainbow that I could see right next to my car...like the universe saying “Yeah,you got it!” I will smile to myself for the rest of my life.So much 55 in each day.

(use) to fix the wings and body of aeroplanes.

Professor Wass and his team found inspiration in the processes of the human body.As Professor Wass explains,“If you cut 61. (you) finger,there are

mechanisms (结构) that repair that damage.Can we put the self-healing (自愈) functions that we have in an airplane wing?If you do that,you’re not going to repair a huge hole in the airplane wing.What we should be able 62. (repair) are the tiny cracks that lead 63. the problems later on.”

I’m glad that you’re interested in what is happening in China.

Yours, Li Hua

参考范文

Dear Steven,

I’m glad that you’re interested in what is happening in China.I’m writing to tell you something about the rubbish classification in my community.

Rubbish classification not only reduces unnecessary environmental

pollution,but also promotes the construction of an environmentally friendly community.But things in my community are not optimistic.Many people throw waste without classifying them properly,which results in great pollution and adds to the burden of workers.I think the government should make the importance of waste classification known to the public and make laws to ban littering,while for individual,we should strengthen our awareness of environmental protection.

第二节(满分 25分)

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给的段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。 One weekend in July,Jane and her husband,Tom,had driven three hours to camp overnight by a lake in the forest.Unfortunately,on the way an unpleasant subject came up and they started to quarrel.By the time they reached the lake,Jane was so angry that she said to Tom,“I’m going to find a better spot for us to camp” and walked away.

With no path to follow,Jane just walked on for quite a long time.After she had climbed to a high place,she turned around,hoping to see the lake.To her surprise,she saw nothing but forest and,far beyond,a snowcapped mountain top.She suddenly realised that she was lost.

“Tom!”she cried.“Help!”

No reply.If only she had not left her mobile phone in that bag with Tom.Jane kept moving,but the farther she walked,the more confused she became.As night was beginning to fall,Jane was so tired that she had to stop for the night.Lying awake in the dark,Jane wanted very much to be with Tom and her family.She wanted to hold him and tell him how much she loved him.

Jane rose at the break of day,hungry and thirsty.She could hear water trickling (滴落) somewhere at a distance.Quickly she followed the sound to a stream.To her great joy,she also saw some berry bushes.She drank and ate a few berries.Never in her life had she tasted anything better.Feeling stronger now,Jane began to walk along the stream and hoped it would lead her to the lake. As she picked her way carefully along the stream,Jane heard a helicopter.Is that for me?Unfortunately,the trees made it impossible for people to see her from above.A few minutes later,another helicopter flew overhead.Jane took off her yellow

blouse,thinking that she should go to an open area and flag them if they came back again.

注意:

1.续写词数应为 150左右; 2.请按如下格式作答。

But no more helicopters came and it was getting dark again.

It was daybreak when Jane woke up.

参考范文

Butnomorehelicopterscameanditwasgettingdarkagain.Jane had to stay alone in the

forest for another cold night.At that moment,she felt a little sad,but she wasn’ t so frightened.She reminded herself constantly,“Tom must have called for those helicopters.Maybe he was in one of them and will return soon!I have to guide him tomorrow.”She fell asleep and dreamed of seeing Tom.

ItwasdaybreakwhenJanewokeup. She ate some berries and then walked along the stream,hoping to find a suitable place to guide the helicopter.She walked and walked,exhausted but full of hope.Suddenly,she spotted a huge flat rock.She managed to climb onto it and waited with patience.The helicopter appeared again.The nearer it got,the more she waved the yellow blouse.To her great joy,the helicopter didn’t miss Jane this time and it landed near the big rock slowly.Tom jumped off the helicopter and rushed towards Jane.They hugged each other tightly and burst into

tears.

主题语境:人与社会 科学与技术 Every year,millions of people head to London’s Trafalgar Square to see Nelson’s Column,and the four lion statues that “guard” it.And last month,during the London Design Festival,a bright red lion sculpture was added to the collection.

But this was more than just a statue:It had a large open mouth,with an LED screen inside it.At the same time,passers-by could type in random words on a screen close to the lion,which were used to produce an AI-created poem.The most interesting part of the poems lies in theirrandomness,as the words that people choose to enter include many things,such as the time,the weather and their mood.In the daytime,the finished poem appeared on the LED screen,but at night,it was projected (投射) onto the lion’s body and the famous Nelson’s Column,in a lovely light display.

Es Devlin,the sculpture’s creator,was inspired by the history behind the four historic lion statues.Edwin Landseer,the designer of the lions,wanted them to look much more animated,but Queen Vietoria refused his plan.This made Devlin wonder,“What if we could give a lion a poetic voice?” According to Devlin,although England has seen many poems about national identity in recent years,these works have been lacking imagination.“I wanted to make a piece that was poetic and collective,”he told BBC News.

After standing for almost 180 years,the purpose of Trafalgar Square has changed over the years.But thanks to the high-tech lion and its poetry,the square is standing the test of time.

A.They are creative. B.They are not popular. C.They are not imaginative.

D.They are poetic and collective. 答案 C

Choose when you want to go.Disney recommends going during the spring and fall.The best times to go to Walt Disney World are: Mid-November through mid-December (except the week of Thanksgiving).The weather is usually cool but pleasant,the Christmas decorations are up,special events are running,and the attendance is usually moderate.Expect crowds on

Saturdays,especially at the Magic Kingdom. 2 ,but this doesn’t necessarily translate into huge crowds during early December.

Second week of January through mid-February.It’s cool at this time of year. 3 .However,some rides will be closed at this time of year.The first week of January can be busy due to extended holiday vacations and the Walt Disney World Marathon.Avoid any holiday weekends.

5 .It will be extremely hot,and this is peak hurricane season.Plan on taking afternoons off and visiting water parks.Crowds are low.Off-site hotels usually have their rock-bottom deals during this period,and Disney has offered “free dining” packages in this time frame each year since 2005.

B.So many tourists go there to enjoy themselves C.The weather is warm in May

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。短文主要介绍了故宫博物院在世界上成为游客接待数量 最多的博物馆以及故宫博物院在吸引游客方面所做的努力。

1.known 考查形容词短语。句意:故宫博物院被称为紫禁城,12月 13日迎来了第 1700万名 游客,成为世界上接待游客最多的博物馆。beknownas“作为……而出名”,本句为形容词短 语作后置定语。故填 known。

2.its 考查代词。its为形容词性物主代词,后接名词 visitor作宾语。故填 its。

3.reached 考查一般过去时。句意:自 2009年达到 1000万人次的里程碑以来,游客数量持 续增长。分析句子可知,since引导时间状语从句,主句用现在完成时,从句用一般过去时。 故填 reached。

4.an 考查冠词。句意:游客数量比去年增加了 6.25%。本句中 increase为可数名词,且 increase首字母发音为元音音素,所以用不定冠词 an来修饰。故填 an。

5.toprotect 考查动词不定式。句意:尽管故宫博物院了每天的游客数量来保护古建筑, 但今年淡季时游客的数量稳步增长。动词不定式 toprotect作目的状语。故填 toprotect。 6.steadily 考查副词。steadily为副词修饰动词 hasgrown。故填 steadily。

7.ranging 考查现在分词。句意:在过去的十年里,故宫博物院已经生产了 10000多件文化 物品,从笔记本到口红。items与 range在逻辑上是主动关系,所以用现在分词 ranging。 8.which 考查定语从句。句意:故宫博物院官方微博账号拥有 600多万粉丝,通过定期张贴 精美照片,不断展现故宫四季的魅力,在与年轻人的互动和故宫博物院的推广中发挥着重要

作用。分析句子可知,TheofficialWeiboaccountofthePalaceMuseum为先行词,在后面的非 性定语从句中作主语,所以关系代词用 which。故填 which。

9.photos 考查名词复数。photo为可数名词,这里指多张照片,所以用 photo的复数 photos。故填 photos。

阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇 60词左右的内容概要。

Have you heard of an old saying “The grass looks greener on the other side of the fence”?It means other places often look better,more interesting than the place where you live.“Let’s go to KFC for dinner and then watch some Japanese cartoons!” We all know it:More and more Chinese kids love American and Japanese food and movies.Some people worry that young Chinese are beginning to feel that way.They see young Chinese ignoring(忽视)Chinese culture and,instead,buying Japanese cartoon books,watching Republic of Korea’s soap operas and even celebrating Western holidays.

Foreign books and soap operas are good,but Chinese writers and actors are just as good.As for holidays,Christmas is nice,but it can never have the meaning for Chinese that the Spring Festival has,and the West has nothing to compare with the Mid-Autumn Festival.China has lots of cool things in its

culture:calligraphy,Beijing Opera,quick meals on the streets,and even Jay Chou!And let’s not forget the part of Chinese culture I like best:its friendliness.Not all countries are as warm as China. It’s good to enjoy other cultures and learn from them,but they can never replace your own culture.It’s good to look on the other side of the fence,but make sure you take a good long look.You will find that the grass isn’t always greener. Although some people become worried about that,I don’t think they should.Will we get more powerful without learning from other countries?Will Chinese people live more happily without American fast food?Besides,it’s fun to learn about different cultures.Chinese kids can learn about other cultures and have fun,but they also need to learn more about their own culture.Be proud of Chinese culture and of being Chinese!

参考范文

Many young Chinese prefer foreign items,considering them to be better.(要点 1)Nevertheless,Chinese culture is equally good,colourful and even more

meaningful,such as its festivals,calligraphy and friendliness.(要点 2)Foreign cultures,which are not always good,can never replace your own culture.(要点 3)In a word,Chinese kids just need to learn more and take pride in Chinese culture while enjoying other cultures.(要点 4)

主题语境:人与自我 生活与学习

Children used to be able to play freely,exploring and interacting with the natural world with little or no supervision(监督) by adults.They were free to invent games of their own.Nowadays,however,we control the lives of our children much more,giving them fewer chances for free play.Many children in England used to spend hours playing on their bikes,having all sorts of adventures,but this is now

considered too dangerous.Some working families can’t care for their children after school,so the children have to stay indoors or attend supervised after-school activities.

The result is that some children have little time for play any more and when they do it’s often spent in front of the television or computer.In the

past,children in Brazil played a game which involves spinning (旋转) a large seed with a hole in it to create a scream-like noise.They rarely play this game nowadays. Studies show that outdoor environments help all people by reducing stress and creating a general feeling of well-being.When children play in the open air,they are more likely to have positive feelings about each other.

Outdoor environments are also important for children’s development of independence.When playing outside,children can gradually increase the distance from adults.Adults are then more willing to trust their children,an important element in confidence-building which improves the relationship between child and parents. Outdoors,children have more chances to use all their senses.They have greater freedom not only to run and shout,but also to interact with the

environment.Activities which may not be allowed indoors are perfectly acceptable outdoors;children are free to play messy games out in the open air that just wouldn’t be permitted in the home.

Children experience the natural environment differently from adults.Adults typically see nature as background to what they are doing,while for children it is a hands-on experience.The expensive toys and indoor educational games cannot substitute for the experience of direct interaction with nature.They cannot replace the sensation where a child’s attention is suddenly caught by the sunlight through leaves or the gentle noise of water flowing by. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍现在的孩子几乎没有机会进行户外活动 以及户外活动对孩子的好处。

A.itwascommonforchildrentoinventgamesinthepast B.TVsandcomputersaremorepopularthanoutdoorgames C.Brazilianchildrenusedtoplayoutdoorgames D.childrenseldomplayoutdoorsnowadays 答案 D

解析推理判断题。根据第二段中的

“Inthepast,childreninBrazilplayedagamewhichinvolvesspinningalargeseedwithahole inittocreateascream-likenoise.Theyrarelyplaythisgamenowadays.”可知,过去巴西儿童 玩一个游戏,这个游戏里,旋转一个大的里面有孔的种子来制造像噪音一样的尖锐的声音,但 是如今他们几乎不玩了。故可知,作者举例是为了说明如今的孩子很少进行户外活动,故选 D 项。

2.How do adults react when their children become more independent? A.They don’t control the lives of their children anymore. B.They have more confidence in their children. C.They want their children to stay indoors. D.They experience less stress. 答案 B

“Adultsarethenmorewillingtotrusttheirchildren,animportantelementinconfidence-b uildingwhichimprovestherelationshipbetweenchildandparents.”可知,成年人会更愿意 信任孩子,这是树立信心的重要因素之一,而这种信心会改善父母与子女之间关系。故可知, 当孩子更的时候,父母往往会对孩子更有信心,故选 B项。

3.Which of the following can replace the underlined part “substitute for” in the last paragraph?

A.Take the place of. B.Be based on. C.Be used as. D.Get through. 答案 A 解析词义猜测题。根据最后一段中的“Theycannotreplacethesensationwhereachild’ sattentionissuddenlycaughtbythesunlightthroughleavesorthegentlenoiseofwaterflow ingby.”可推知,昂贵的玩具和室内教育性游戏无法替代这种经历。substitutefor与 taketheplaceof都为“替代”的意思,故选 A项。

4.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text? A.To introduce some outdoor games. B.To present a study on outdoor play.

On his way home he saw a person lying on the snow.He placed his baskets on the ground and was going to help the person to get up.At that time he found it was a dead man and there was much blood on his body.He was so afraid that he ran away quickly,without taking the baskets with him.

The next afternoon the farmer was sent to the police station.Having shown the baskets,an officer asked,“Are these yours?”“Yes,sir.” The farmer answered timidly(胆怯地).“Have you killed the man?”“No,no,sir.” The farmer said in a hurry.“When did you see the dead man?”“At about seven last evening.”“Did you see who killed the man?”“No,sir.” The officer brought out a knife and asked,“Have you seen it yet?”“No,sir.” The officer became angry and told the policeman to beat him up and sent him into prison.The officer wanted to trap the farmer into the confession(供认),but the farmer didn’t admit he was the murderer.

Fifty years ago I had a young family of three boys.My husband Johnny and I left them with a friend while we made a rare trip to the cinema in Liverpool.

It was dark and pouring with rain but with the headlights shining on the road,we saw something ahead of us.Johnny pulled to a stop and I jumped out,ran to the grass edge and grabbed a small,wet,and frightened creature.I wrapped it safely in my woollen hat and insisted that my husband turn back and head for home.We thought it was a baby rabbit because it had long ears and was grayish-brown in colour.Once home,we filled a box with torn-up newspaper and a warm towel.We named our new animal Bobsy as we had no idea of its sex.

Sadly though,on the third day with us,it caught its back foot in a door and we quickly realised it was broken.We rushed to the vet(兽医),who said,“It’s only a rabbit.I’ll put it to sleep.” Our response was a very determined,“No way!”We found anther vet and told that she was a baby hare.We were told we should continue to keep her in her box for a week and her foot would heal.

After her recovery,Bobsy learnt to use the kitty litter tray.She would comb her long ears with her front paws.The local paper heard about this and came to our house to take her photo and write a story about her.We had her for seven wonderful years before we moved to New Zealand and we will never forget her.

The city-state of Dubai that is home to the world’s tallest building is fast improving its reputation as the city of the future.On May 22,Dubai officials added to their list of futuristic accomplishments with the introduction of the world’ s first robot police officer.

Nicknamed Robocop after the 1987 action movie,the 1.7-metre tall humanoid (类人 的) robot was introduced at the 4th annual Gulf Information Security Expo and Conference.First introduced in 2011 as REEM by Barcelona-based PAL Robotics,the robot was built to entertain guests at conferences and serve as an information booth

at public places.However,the forward-thinking officials of the Dubai police force saw another potential application and partnered with the Spanish company to build a version that would help improve public safety.

Locals and visitors can get help from Lieutenant Robocop which is currently on duty at the Dubai Mall,using the touchscreen on its chest.Armed with technology from Google and IBM’s supercomputer Watson,the “policeman” can provide visitors with directions and other information regarding the mall in one of six

languages,including Arabic and English and also accept payment for any fines,like parking tickets.It can also detect criminals with an 80 percent accuracy from 100-feet away and send the information real-time to command centre through its camera eyes.While Robocop cannot physically protect people in trouble,an SOS button on its touchscreen can connect them to a human member of the Dubai police force

instantly.When not assisting people or seeking out lawbreakers,Robocop brings smiles to people’s faces by posing for selfies or showering them with compliments.

Once the robot officer has been thoroughly tested,the Smart Services Department at Dubai Police plans to “hire” more Robocops to patrol (巡逻) other public areas and also act as receptionists at police stations.

Can I talk about salary at work?In a word:yes.As the HR company Insperity put it in a recent blog post:Can your employees discuss their salaries or wages with their co-workers?Yes.Even if you have a company policy against it?Yes.

The freedom to discuss your salary at work is a protected right under the labour law.The National Labour Relations Act of 1935 protects your right to discuss the conditions of your employment,including issues related to safety and pay,even when you’re not protected by a union.

Talking about salary with colleagues can be uncomfortable,since there’s such atabooabout discussing money matters,but it’s an important step towards achieving equal pay for equal work.One barrier,however,stems from how we think of our own financial worth.Too many people I talk to wrongly consider their salary a reflection of their worthiness,a statement about their skills,experience,or value.At the end of the day,if we can all separate our self-worth from our salaries a bit more,it’ll become easier to talk frankly with our colleagues.

Asking about money outright can be tough,so one trick I’ve picked up along the way is to ask for your colleagues to confirm or deny.For instance,you might volunteer your salary first and ask “Does that sound right to you?” by way of comparison.Or,let’s say you’re interviewing for a promotion to become a

manager.You might ask a fellow manager about the kind of salary you should expect by saying,“I’m seeing salaries for this kind of position ranging from $65,000 to $70,000—does that seem accurate to you?” This way,even if your colleague isn’ t comfortable sharing their salary outright,they can help you identify if your expectations are on point or way off.

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。

I wouldn’t be the person I am today if I never travelled.Travelling has given me tons of great lessons that I’ll never forget. Appreciating another culture Learning about another culture at school is one thing,but actually experiencing it is another.You can visit art museums,watch landmarks,or just stop at a café. 36 Before you know it,you’ll pick up on local customs or fall in love with unfamiliar foods.

The pleasure of unplugging from social media

Social media takes up a lot of our time and it’s really distracting and even damaging.So for me,when I travel I love the fact that I’m often cut off from any Internet.I stop caring about what others are doing and instead focus on having fun. 37

Exploring your capability(能力)

38 It brings the best out of you.As a shy person,I feel a sense of pride when I make friends with complete strangers or talk in broken foreign languages.Travelling has truly changed me in the best way.Now,whatever happens,I’m capable of meeting the challenge!

Patience I have never taken a vacation where nothing goes wrong.I ever lost my luggage,got hopelessly confused with directions,and waited 5 hours on a train that broke down mid journey. 39 Unexpected things can happen at any moment.The accidents encountered during travel teach you to be more patient with your everyday problems.

The world isn’t as scary as you think If you watch the news as much as I do,it’s easy to start thinking that the entire world is a scary,dangerous place. 40 But in general,the average country is just as safe as the one you live in now.Why let your fear prevent you? A.Travelling is a transforming experience. B.Life doesn’t always go according to plans.

C.Travelling,however,makes us all stop and enjoy the moment.

D.The world is a giant place,and we each just make up a tiny part of it.

E.I find a life behind a screen can never compare with a life being lived fully. F.It’s important when travelling to keep your wisdom and take special precautions. G.Travelling exposes you to people and lifestyles quite different from those back at home. 答案与解析

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给的段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。 I always prided myself on being a wise shopper and having a good nose for bargains.So when I came across a sporting goods store with a sign “Going Out of Business Sale” I marched into the crowded store.Up and down the aisles(通道),I wandered,humming to myself and enjoying the energy and excitement of a sale.

All of a sudden,there,at the back of the store sat a canoe(轻舟) exactly like my husband’s dream Supremo Numero-Uno,whose picture had been stuck on the bathroom mirror for years.My heart beat wildly.I pushed my way through the crowds,and nearly fell into the canoe looking for the price tag.There it was,with the manufacturer’s suggested price at $6,750 plus tax crossed out and a handwritten TO CLEAR $750 AS IS.Must be a mistake.$6,000 off?Salesman.I had to talk to a salesman.I spotted a young fellow with a “Hi.I’m Mathew”.“Mathew.Tell me about this El Supremo canoe.What’s wrong with it?Why is it only $750?”

“Oh.There’s nothing wrong with it.It’s brand new.We’re closing the store.It’ s on clearance like everything else.I’ll go check.” A few minutes later he came back and said,“I’m sorry,ma’am.Someone made a mistake on the sale tag.It should be $4,750 for the whole package.”

I felt tears well up in my eyes.“Oh,well,”I said sadly.“Of course,it was too good to be true.This is exactly like my husband’s dreamboat.I guess I started to dream myself when I saw that price tag.He’s going to be 62 years old Friday.Had to retire early for his health.It’s been hard on just the pension but the stubborn old fool has been saving $10 every week for years to buy one just like this.I promise I won’t buy anything,but it’s just an old man’s silly dream,you know.Always said he wanted to fish in a canoe after he retired,” my voice lowered and I turned and walked away.

注意:

1.续写词数应为 150左右; 2.请按如下格式作答。

I was already at the mall door when Mathew caught up with me.“Do you have $750 plus $25 for delivery,ma’am?”

Can the way you stand or sit affect your success?

This is often discussed in business—“the importance of body language”,noted the US news website BusinessInsider.“It actually has an impact on not just the way others look at us,but also how we actually perform.”

That’s perhaps why Harvard Business School professor Amy Cuddy shot to instant fame (一举成名) after giving a TED talk on the subject in 2012.According to TheNewYorkTimes,Cuddy’s speech is among the most viewed TED talks of all time.

Cuddy and her team study body language,particularly what they call

“high-power” and “low-power” poses.Their research showed that standing or sitting in a certain way,even for just two minutes,changes one’s body chemistry and self-perception.

“I wanted to equip people with tools that would help them feel stronger,less fearful,and better able to bring their full,spirited selves to stressful situations like speaking in class,” Cuddy told CNN.

“High-power” refers to the act of taking a posture of confidence,even when you don’t feel very confident.Typical high-power poses are about opening up.You stretch (伸展) and expand your body to take up as much space as possible.For example,bosses are doing high-power poses when they lean (倚靠) back in their chairs,put their hands behind their heads,and kick their feet up onto their

desks.Meanwhile,people take low-power positions when they’re feeling helpless or defeated.They close up,wrapping their arms around themselves and tucking their limbs in (缩起四肢).

“This isn’t about what your body language is communicating to others,it’s about what your body language is communicating to you.Your body language is changing your mind,which changes your behaviour,which changes your outcomes,”said Cuddy. The best-known high-power pose is nicknamed the “Wonder Woman” pose.You just stand tall with your chest out and your hands on your hips (臀部).Why not give it a shot (尝试),and see whether you feel more confident than before? 【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述身体语言对个人事业成功的影响和展示个人自 信的重要性。

1.Why did Professor Amy Cuddy want people to know her study on body language?

A.To help people to become more confident. B.To make people fitter and stronger.

C.To teach people how to make a better speech.

D.To help distinguish between people of different social classes. 答案 A

解析细节理解题。根据第五段中的

“Iwantedtoequippeoplewithtoolsthatwouldhelpthemfeelstronger,lessfearful,andbet terabletobringtheirfull,spiritedselvestostressfulsituationslikespeakinginclass ”可以得出答案。

2.Which of the following is probably a high-power pose according to the article? A.Folding your arms.

B.Looking down while in the presence of others.

C.Sitting with your arm spread out around the chair next to you.

D.Resting your chin on your hands as if wondering about something. 答案 C

解析推理判断题。根据第六段中的

“Typicalhigh-powerposesareaboutopeningup.Youstretchandexpandyourbodytotakeupas muchspaceaspossible.”以及后面举的例子可知,high-powerposes一般是那些往外伸展的 动作,所以 C项为正确答案。

3.What’s the main purpose of this article?

A.To explain what has made Amy Cuddy’s TED talk so popular. B.To give practical tips on how to communicate with others. C.To help the reader to tell the difference between a high-power pose and a low-power one.

D.To explain why Amy Cuddy considers body language important. 答案 D

解析主旨大意题。该文主要是解释 AmyCuddy的关于身体语言重要性的研究。

主题语境:人与社会 人际沟通

A simple gesture can be formed into a child’s memory so quickly that it will cause the child to give a false answer to a question accompanied by that gesture.A new finding suggests that parents,social workers,psychologists and lawyers should be careful with their hands as well as their words.

Gestures can be as informative as speech,but hand gestures are so common that we rarely notice we’re using them.

While memories of both adults and children are easy to react to suggestion,those of children are known to be particularly influenced,said lead researcher Sara Broaders of Northwestern University.Kids are used to looking to adults to tell events for them and can be misled even if not intentionally(故意地).

Previous research,for example,has shown that detail-loaded questions often cause false answers;when asked,say “Did you drink juice at the picnic?” the child is likely to say “yes” even if no juice had been available.It is not that the child is consciously lying,but rather the detail is quickly formed into his or her memory.

To avoid this problem,social workers have long been advised to ask children only open-ended questions,such as “What did you have at the picnic?” But an open-ended question paired with a gesture,briefly meaning a juice box,is treated like a detailed question.That is,children become likely to answer falsely.

And it isn’t just a few kids:77% of children gave at least one piece of false information when a detail was suggested by an ordinary gesture.Gestures may also become more popular when talking with non-fluent language users,such as little kids,Broaders said as hand movements can impart meaning of unfamiliar words and phrases.“It certainly seems reasonable that adults would gesture more with children.”

In general,Broaders advises parents and other adults to “try to be aware of your hands when questioning a child about an event.Otherwise,you might be getting answers that don’t reflect what actually happened.”

【语篇解读】手势语在一定程度上会增加相互间的理解。然而,它也有消极作用,即误导 对方,尤其是会误导孩子,本文就介绍了这一研究结果。

4.What do we know about gestures according to the text? A.They have not any function at all. B.They are rarely used by people.

C.They have a certain effect on children. D.They are often used by social workers. 答案 C

解析细节理解题。文章第一段就指出手势语对孩子有影响,而全文都在说这一观点,故选C项。 5.Why are kids easy to be misled by gestures according to Sara Broaders? A.These gestures are very attractive. B.Their memories are affected easily. C.Children are easy to tell lies. D.These gestures are used frequently. 答案 B

解析细节理解题。根据第一段首句“Asimplegesturecanbeformedintoachild’

smemorysoquicklythatitwillcausethechildtogiveafalseanswertoaquestionaccompanied bythatgesture.”和第三段可知,主要原因是孩子的记忆很容易受到外界的影响,故选 B项。 6.What does the underlined word “impart” in Paragraph 6 mean? A.Separate. B.Tell apart. C.Confuse. D.Pass on. 答案 D 解析词义猜测题。由语境可知,大人对孩子使用更多的手势语是有原因的,手势语能够传达那 些不熟悉的单词和短语的含义,故选 D项。

7.What would be the best title for the text? A.Gestures—a Useful Way of Education B.Gestures Can Mislead Children

C.Gestures Mean Adults’ Directions D.Gestures Affect Children Too Much 答案 B 解析标题归纳题。短文主要介绍了一项研究结果:手势语会对孩子产生误导作用。D项表达 内容太宽泛,故选 B项。

主题语境:人与自我 做人与做事 (2020山东卷)

Jennifer Mauer has needed more willpower than the typical college student to pursue her goal of earning a nursing degree.That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and became the first in her large family to earn a bachelor’s degree.

Mauer,of Edgar,Wisconsin,grew up on a farm in a family of 10 children.Her dad worked at a job away from the farm,and her mother ran the farm with the kids.After high school,Jennifer attended a local technical college,working to pay her tuition(学费),because there was no extra money set aside for a college education.After graduation,she worked to help her sisters and brothers pay for their schooling.

Jennifer now is married and has three children of her own.She decided to go back to college to advance her career and to be able to better support her family while doing something she loves:nursing.She chose the UW-Eau Claire program at Ministry Saint Joseph’s Hospital in Marshfield because she was able to pursue her four-year degree close to home.She could drive to class and be home in the evening to help with her kids.Jennifer received great support from her family as she worked to earn her degree:Her husband worked two jobs to cover the bills,and her 68-year-old mother helped take care of the children at times.

Through it all,she remained in good academic standing and graduated with honors.Jennifer sacrificed(牺牲) to achieve her goal,giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study.“Some nights my heart was breaking to have to pick between my kids and studying for exams or papers,”she says.However,her children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn her degree.Jennifer is a first-generation graduate and an inspiration to her family—and that’s pretty powerful. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一个从小在农场长大的女孩高中毕业后一 边工作一边读完技校,还供家中弟妹完成学业;她成家后又重返校园攻读学位,不仅为自己的 孩子树立了榜样,也成为家族的骄傲。

We understand this lesson best when we receive gifts of love from

children.Whether 9. is a cheap pipe or a diamond necklace,the proper response is 10. (appreciate).We love the idea within the gift rather than the thing. 答案与解析

【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位学生长途跋涉给老师带来了沙漠里的 清泉,虽然泉水由于装在皮水壶里时间太长而变得味道苦涩,但是它承载的爱和善良却让老 师深受感动。

1.travelling 考查非谓语动词。句意:一个年轻人在穿越沙漠的时候,遇到一潭清水。此处 为 while引导的时间状语从句的省略,完整的从句应为

“Whilehewastravellingthroughadesert”,省略时应该将主语和 be动词同时省略,即省略 hewas,故填 travelling。

2.who/that 考查定语从句。句意:他把他的皮容器装满水,这样他可以带些回去给做过他老 师的老人。这里是定语从句,先行词是 anelder(一位老人),在定语从句中作主语,故填 who/that。

3.for 考查固定短语。thanksbforsth意为“就某物向某人表示感谢”,故填 for。

4.left 考查时态。句意:这个学生走后,老师让另外一个学生品尝从沙漠带回的水。因为这 个学生离开是过去的事情,所以谓语动词应使用一般过去时,故填 left。

5.saying 考查非谓语动词。句意:他把水吐出来,说它太难喝了。本句中的动词 say与句子 主语 he构成主动关系,所以使用现在分词的形式作伴随状语,表示动作与 spit同时发生,故 填 saying。 6.to like 考查固定短语。句意:为什么你假装喜欢它呢?pretendtodosth是固定短语,意为 “假装做某事”,故填 tolike。

7.simply 考查副词。句意:水只不过是装着善意和爱的容器。此处需填入副词在句中作状 语,意为“只不过”,simple的副词是 simply,故填 simply。

8.sweeter 考查形容词比较级。句意:没什么能比它更甜了。语境中暗含比较意味,因此使 用形容词的比较级形式。否定词和比较级连用表示最高级的含义,该句可转化为 Thewaterissweeterthananythingelse,故填 sweeter。

9.it 考查代词。句意:无论这种礼物是一个廉价的烟斗还是一条贵重的钻石项链。此处需 填入代词作主语,指代上文提到的礼物,再根据表语 acheappipeoradiamondnecklace是单数, 可知使用 it代替礼物,故填 it。

10.appreciation 考查名词。句意:无论这种礼物是一个廉价的烟斗还是一条贵重的钻石项 链,对之作出的适当的反应就是欣赏。此处需要填入名词作表语,appreciate(欣赏)是动词, 它的名词是 appreciation,故填 appreciation。 Ⅵ.概要写作

阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇 60词左右的内容概要。 For many years there’s been a debate about rewarding our children.Does it work? Some people think parents should establish a standard with kids and give them something for meeting this standard as a reward.Punishment is given out in much the same way,but it’s used when certain standards of performance or behaviour have not been met.Kids will often become more dutiful when threatened with punishment,and work harder when promised a valuable reward.The problem is what happens when parents aren’t around.

To develop responsible,self-disciplined (自律的) kids,parents need to promote certain ideas.One of these ideas is that everyone pitches in and helps in the family,even if someone is not crazy about helping.Another idea is that there can be enjoyment in doing any task.When a task is for a worthy cause (our family can enjoy the house more because I helped clean it),and when parents are cheerful about their kids’ chores,this message can have a big impact.

This is how parents help kids develop a sense of responsibility.When children develop this responsibility,they’ll be more disciplined,and they’ll control their emotions better.When parents give rewards to kids,they reduce the sense of

responsibility.They also create children who may temporarily perform to a certain standard,but who aren’t likely to continue the performance without the carrot hanging in front of them.

“Rewards and punishments can change behaviour for a while,but they cannot change the person who engages in the behaviour,at least in the way we want,” said Alfie Kohn,author of PunishedbyRewards.“Good values have to be grown from the inside out.” Parents can help give their children a sense of shared responsibility and discipline which can last a lifetime.The real rewards that children receive will be their readiness for the complex and demanding world that waits for them—a world that rewards those who have learned the secrets of discipline and responsibility.

参考范文

Rewards and punishments cannot make kids behave in the desired way.(要点 1)Instead,parents should promote the idea of responsibility among their

children.(要点 2)They should try to make their kids see that certain kinds of behaviour damage the family while other kinds of behaviour make family life

satisfying and enjoyable.(要点 3)Only in this way can good values be grown,values that will help kids become responsible adults.(要点 4)

There is one language that is used in every country in the world.The people who use it are young and old,short and tall,thin and fat.It is everybody’s second language.It is easy to understand,although you can’t hear it.It is sign language.

When you wave to a friend who is across the street,you are using sign

language.When you smile at someone,you are saying,“I want to be friendly”,but you are not using speech.You are using sign language.When you raise your hand in class,you are saying,“Please ask me.I think I know the correct answer.”

Babies who can’t talk can point at things.They are using sign language.A policeman who wants to stop traffic holds up his hands.He is using sign language.

Many years ago,a French priest,Charles Michel de Epee,became interested in education for deaf people.He invented a finger alphabet (字母表).It is still in use.People can make the sign for letters and spell words with their hands,and deaf people can read and understand them.Soon there were schools for the deaf in many countries.The only university for the deaf is Gallaudet College in Washington,D.C.

Today,in the United States,there are special TV news programs for deaf

people.The newsreader tells the news in sign language.At the same time,the words appear on the TV screen.

The actors in the Theatre of Deaf don’t spell every word.Sometimes they use hand signs.When they put two hands together,it means sandwich.They can make a roof with them when they want to show a house.One finger in front of an actor’s mouth can mean quiet.You can talk to people who are behind windows that are closed.And when you go swimming with your friends,you can have conversations under water.

How many hand signs do you use every day?

Dear Jason,

Ⅵ.读后续写 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给的段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Last summer when my family was road tripping to Montana we arrived in Great Falls late one night.The kids had fallen asleep in the car,so my husband went and checked in while I stayed with the kids.When he returned with the room keys,we woke up our children and took them out of the car,through the hotel,up the elevators and into our guest room.We kept the room dark,leaving only the entry light on,and quickly put the kids into bed hoping they’d drift back to sleep.

My husband went to put our water in the mini-fridge only to notice some

beers.“That’s strange,”he said and I agreed,but having discovered left-behind drinks in hotel fridges in the past I didn’t think much about it.I figured the housekeepers had forgotten to check it.In the meantime,my husband ran to the store and I went into the bathroom to get ready for bed.As I washed my face,I looked down to see cardboard beer containers in the trash.I felt my heart begin to pound.We were in someone else’s room!

Now feeling panic,I checked the closet.Nothing.I then went to the dresser drawers.Nothing.My eyes scanned the door room’s floor and there it was:A black bag that looked like one of ours.But it wasn’t!

I immediately called the front desk and the waitress in charge responded with an“Oh,my God!This is not good!”

By now the kids were wide awake,jumping on the beds as I was trying to put all of our things back into our oversized suitcase.Just while we were packing our things,I heard someone was unlocking the door,which made my heart beat wildly. 注意:

1.续写词数应为 150左右;

The door opened and in came a young man.

I didn’t know how to deal with the matter but luckily the waitress arrived out of breath.

When I was five or six years old,I remember watching TV and seeing other children suffer in other parts of the world.I would say to myself,“When I grow up,when I can get rich,I will save kids all over the world.” At 17,I started my career here in America,and by the age of 18,I started my first charity organisation.I went on to team up with other organisations in the following years,and met,helped,and even lost some of the most beautiful souls,from

six-year-old Jasmina Anema who passed away in 2010 from leukemia (白血病),whose story inspired thousands of people to volunteer as donors,to my grandmother,who lost her battle with cancer in 2012,which is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation(CLF).We’re all human.And we all just want a chance: a chance at life,a chance in education,a chance at a future,really.And at CLF,our mission is to impact as many lives as possible,but it starts with just one.

People make it seem too hard to do charity work.The truth is,you don’t have to be rich to help others.You don’t need to be famous.You don’t even have to be college-educated.But it starts with your neighbour,the person right next to you,the person sitting next to you in class,the kid down the block in your neighbourhood.You just do whatever you can to help in any way that you can.And today,I want to challenge each of you to make a commitment to help one person,one organisation,one situation that touches your heart.My grandmother always used to say,“If you’ve got a dollar,there’s plenty to share.” 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。慈善无关,无关名誉,无关教育背景;从帮助身边 的人做起,成就自己的事业。

Meeting people from another culture can be difficult.From the beginning,people may send the wrong signal.Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.

Different cultures emphasize the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree.For example,business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust.Even with people at work,it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “small talk”,usually over a cup of tea,before they do any job.In many European countries—like the UK or France—people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafés rather than at the office. Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures.I once made a speech in Thailand.I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively

discussion;instead,there was an uncomfortable silence.The people present just stared at me and smiled.After getting to know their ways better,I realised that they thought I was talking too much.In my own culture,we express meaning mainly through words,but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.

Even within Northern Europe,cultural differences can cause serious problems.Certainly,English and German cultures share similar

values;however,Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly.We think that they are rude.In fact,this is just because the culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.

People from different parts of the world have different values,and sometimes these values are quite against each other.However,if we can understand them better,a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.

【语篇解读】本文为说明文。作者主要介绍在不同的文化背景下,人们具有不同的价值 观,如何才能做到更好地理解彼此。

D

The hit movieNottingHill begins with a famous scene.Hugh Grant knocks into Julia Roberts and spills orange juice all over her.After it happened,Grant repeatedly says,“I’m so sorry.I’m so sorry.”

His actions in this scene are very British.If Roberts’ character were from Britain,then she would probably apologise repeatedly as well—even if it were not her fault.But this doesn’t happen in the movie,as Roberts is from the US.

A report in TheTelegraph once said that three quarters of British people apologise when they ran into someone in the street—regardless of whether they are responsible or not.In fact,the British use “sorry” in many situations.For

example,if they mishear someone,they say “Sorry?” The person they are talking to will also apologise by replying,“No,I am sorry!” This can go on for up to five minutes as they compete for who is the most sorry.

Why are the British so sorry?Mark Tyrrell,a psychology writer in the UK,thinks that their apologetic tendencies are rooted in the British class system.“We say sorry because historically the new middle class in Britain had to apologise for not being the working class,but also for not really being the upper class.” Another theory is that they apologise to avoid conflicts.For example,if they bump into someone,he might get angry.To avoid this,they instantly say “Sorry!”

True manners are about being considerate,and today’s constant use of

apologising shows that we are perhaps not as thoughtful as we once were.The word “sorry” has lost some of its meaning.Do you see my point?Sorry,it might just be a British thing. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了英国人的道歉文化及其原因:一是因为历 史上英国的新中产阶级;二是为了避免冲突。

32.Why does the author mention a scene in the movie NottingHill at the beginning? A.To give an example of British modesty.

B.To introduce different ways of saying sorry.

C.To show what kind of men are considered gentlemen in the UK. D.To draw our attention to when and how British people say sorry. 答案 D 解析推理判断题。根据第一段的描述可知,文章开头以电影为例,描述了英国人道歉的场景, 引出文章的主题——英国的道歉文化。

33.Which of the following statements might Mark Tyrrell agree with? A.People should not apologise if they are not responsible. B.Americans care less about manners than British people do.

C.That British people apologise so much is linked to the class system. D.British people care too much about which social class they are from. 答案 C

解析细节理解题。根据第四段中的

“MarkTyrrell...thinksthattheirapologetictendenciesarerootedintheBritishclasssy stem.”可知,MarkTyrrell认为英国人的道歉根源于其阶级制度。由此可推断,C项正确。 34.What can be inferred from the passage?

A.It’s unnecessary for British people to be so polite.

B.The overuse of apologising shows Britons are truly sincere.

C.People should give up the traditional use of the word “sorry”.

D.Using “sorry” more doesn’t necessarily mean people are more polite. 答案 D

解析推理判断题。根据第四段的内容以及最后一段中的“today’

sconstantuseofapologisingshowsthatweareperhapsnotasthoughtfulasweoncewere.”可知, 英国人道歉或是与他们的阶级制度有关,或是为了避免冲突,今天的多次道歉也并不意味着 人们更有礼貌。

35.What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage? A.To explore the best way of saying sorry.

B.To explain why the British overuse the word “sorry”. C.To show how saying sorry has changed over time.

D.To suggest many British people lack traditional manners. 答案 B

解析推理判断题。根据全文内容可知,本文由电影场景引入主题,介绍了英国的道歉文化,并 介绍了英国人道歉的原因及今天道歉的意义,主要目的是介绍英国人过量道歉的原因。 第二节(共 5小题;每小题 2.5分,满分 12.5分)

Howtostartaconversationwith someoneyoudon’tknow IntroduceYourself

It’s not necessary to be clever when you introduce yourself.Simply focus on being genuine and sincere.When you approach the other person to start the

conversation,give him a warm smile and clearly state your name. 36 Remember to speak at a regular pace,taking care not to speak too quickly or slowly,so that the other person will have no difficulty understanding you.

BegintheConversation 37 A comment about the weather or a current event may be most appropriate.Avoid beginning the conversation with anything too personal,as this may make the other person feel uncomfortable to continue the conversation.After you make your opening comments,give the person enough time to respond.Show a sincere interest in the thoughts he expresses about the subject.

ContinuetheConversation

If you are building a rapport,feel free to move on to a bit more personal topics to continue the conversation. 38 Open-ended questions—those that can’t be answered by a simple “yes” or “no”—help to keep a conversation going.

39

When you have run out of things to say or need to move on to do something else,prepare your exit strategy.You may say that you need to use the bathroom or catch up with someone else.Let the other person know how much you enjoyed talking to her. 40

A.End the Conversation.

B.Bring up a general topic to begin the conversation. C.This will help keep the conversation flowing freely. D.If appropriate,make plans to talk again at a later date.

E.Your conversational partner will feel valued and appreciated. F.Explain who you are and why you want to have the conversation.

G.You may want to ask about his favourite hobby,his career,his classes or upcoming events. 答案与解析

【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了和陌生人交谈的技巧。如:介绍自己;开始交谈;继续交谈 和结束交谈等。

36.F 本部分的小标题为“介绍自己”。根据前面的“说清楚你的名字”可知,F项“解释 你是谁,为什么想交谈”符合语境。

37.B 本部分的小标题是“开始交谈”。和陌生人交谈需要有合适的话题,B项“提出一个 一般话题来开始交谈”与上文语意相符。

38.G 根据上文的“私人的话题”可知,G项中的“也许你想问一下他的爱好、职业、课程 和即将到来的事件”可承接上文。

39.A 根据前面的“开始交谈;继续交谈”可知,此处应为“结束谈话”,所以选 A项。 40.D 本部分主要介绍如何结束交谈。D项“如果合适的话,计划稍后再谈”符合语意。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分 30分) 第一节(共 15小题;每小题 1分,满分 15分)

第二节(满分 25分) 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给的段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。 I always wondered how people would react if I tried to approach a total stranger for help in a busy place like a street corner or in a bustling mall.I personally have always hurried past a stranger who tried to catch my attention in a busy place or when I am rushing around.

Yesterday I had a taste of being stuck in such a desperate situation where my only hope of help would have to come from a total stranger.

I was in a busy shopping mall buying a large piece of luggage.After the purchase in one of the large,fancy,expensive shops,I picked up my phone from my pocket to call my driver waiting in the parking lot and my phone was dead.

I then requested the shop assistant who had just sold me the luggage,which was not cheap at all,if she could ring the number of my driver for me.She replied,still all smiles,“I’m sorry sir,but it is the shop policy that we cannot use mobile phones while working in the shop.”

As I was wondering what kind of policy that was,I saw a nice-looking teenage boy coming toward me.Remembering my wife’s interesting theory that beautiful people are more likely to give you a hand when you’re in trouble,I thought I might have a chance.But before I could say a word,he walked past me.It turned out he simply didn’t see me.

I waited a bit longer in the mall but it seemed nobody bothered to look at me.Disappointed and tired,I got out of the shop onto the busy street in front.I stood there with people rushing by,looking at their faces to see if there was a sign of kindness on their face.I began wondering how many times I had reacted to strangers like the shop girl and the teenager.

注意:

1.续写词数应为 150左右; 2.请按如下格式作答。

At that point I saw a young mother with her two kids.

Finally,a man wearing a cheap T-shirt and dirty jeans seemed to notice me.

参考范文

AtthatpointIsawayoungmotherwithhertwokids.I thought that a beautiful woman

with charming blue eyes must be willing to help me.So,with great expectation,I trotted briskly towards her with an appropriate smile on my face,and requested courteously if she could be kind enough to make a phone call for me.However,what I saw was a woman’s face disfigured by frowns and what I heard was a sound of dismay and suspicion under her breath.Without a word,she pulled her kids to escape from me,as if scared by a murderer.I stood there,motionless,with a blank face and a sinking heart.

Finally,amanwearingacheapT-shirtanddirtyjeansseemedtonoticeme.I squeezed a smile though it failed to mask my weariness,and requested him the same

thing.Unexpectedly,he took out his mobile phone for me without hesitation or any probing questions.Dancing in his eyes was the real kindness that I had been

struggling to seek for so long.From that day on,I began helping other strangers in distress,just like the poor-looking but kind man,with the aim of passing kindness and melting the ice in many people’s hearts.
