一、英语任务型阅读
1．根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
Every year, during Chongyang Festival, citizens of China show their respect to the elders in their families and communities. It's a special tradition which is rooted in the deep value that Chinese culture places on honouring their elders.
Sadly, many of our aging population are seniors without sons, daughters or grandchildren to visit. While they may have great friends, they no doubt miss the tender and loving relationships unique to families. To fill this void(空虚),many volunteers turned up at nursing homes around the country in order to spend time with the residents(居民). In some cases, they performed humble(谦逊的) gestures(表示) of kindness, such as combing their hair or washing their feet. While the kind acts were appreciated, one embarrassing story out of Anhui Province raised a valuable question. Reportedly, one old gentleman had his feet washed seven times during the day by different volunteers. Is this genuinely(真诚地) caring for the elderly? Many of the residents at the nursing home said that those gestures do not make them feel cared for at all. Their family members or community volunteers may drop by for a few hours of token(象征性) time, but soon they disappear back into their busy lives.
There is nothing we can give that is more valuable or appreciated than our time. While you may feel like there is barely enough time to care for your many responsibilities, might it be possible to spare just a moment as you walk home from school to sit with a senior who lives in your community? Just five minutes is not going to prevent you from getting your homework done, but it may totally change a day of loneliness into a day of joy for one old man or woman. Do you live far from your grandparents? Why not pick up the phone and let them know you're thinking of them? Or maybe you could remind them of the \"good old days\" and mail them a short letter. Imagine their surprise and joy!
We live in a complicated(复杂的) and busy world, but kindness and caring is still a very simple thing.
（1）How many times did one old gentleman have his feet washed during the day? (不超过2个词)
（2）Which gesture can make the elders feel cared for? (不超过8个词)
（3）What may the family members of the residents at the nursing home do? (不超过13个词) 【答案】 （1）7 times.
（2）To sit with them and talk to them.
（3）Their family members may drop by for a few hours of token time.
【解析】【分析】主要讲了中国的重阳节是展示对老人尊敬的日子，但是现在空巢老人仅仅在志愿者的陪伴下，自己的家人因为忙碌很少陪伴他们。
（1）根据Reportedly, one old gentleman had his feet washed seven times during the day by different volunteers.可知一个老人的脚由不同的志愿者洗了7次，故填7 times.。
（2）根据might it be possible to spare just a moment as you walk home from school to sit with
a senior who lives in your community? Why not pick up the phone and let them know you're thinking of them?可知坐下来和他们聊天，故填To sit with them and talk to them.。 （3）根据Their family members or community volunteers may drop by for a few hours of token(象征性) time，可知交通成员可能象征性的拜访几个小时，故填Their family members may drop by for a few hours of token time.。

Friends are important in our life, because no one wants to be lonely. However, some people have problems in making friends and they often feel lonely. ________ According to a new study from Chicago University, the reason is that this kind of people have brains(脑)different from common people. And they often feel unsafe when facing strangers. Does that mean they have no way to become happy again?________
Scientists of this study have thought up ways to help these people deal with their loneliness.
They provided four steps for getting out of loneliness.
________ \"It's not enough for people just to get in touch with others online. That's because most people don't show their true selves there,\" said Dr Cacioppo, one of this study's scientists. Another step is to get an action plan. As \"actions speak louder than words\active to communicate with others. They also need to meet people with the same interests. Also, they should try to expect the best from each activity. ________ Who knows what good things are waiting for us? A.People who feel lonely

5．阅读短文，根据短文内容，在短文后的空格里填入最恰当的单词（每空限填一词）。 On March 31\凉山彝族自治州)led to 31 deaths, including 27 firefighters. And on May 1st, 2016, in Alberta, Canada, a wildfire destroyed an area of nearly 700 square miles. More than 88, 000 people had to leave their homes and thousands of homes were destroyed.
Wildfires are unexpected, unplanned. And the cause of most wildfires is unsure. To bum, wildfires require the right conditions—fuel, oxygen and heat. And global warring is one of the most important reasons. The high temperatures and dry conditions make the fire spread quickly. In many parts of the world, wildfires happen naturally. They are started by lighting(闪电)or some other special weather conditions. In recent years, there have been more wildfires because of dry, hot weather, and changeable weather patterns because of global warning.
However, many fires are started by people. Sometimes, people clear land for farming. Besides, there are smokers who accidentally set fires.
Wildfires can cause a lot of smoke, which will pollute the air. Lots of lives, property(财产)and valuable forests will soon disappear in wildfires. When trees are burnt down, and heavy rain follows, more disasters such as terrible floods will happen.
Wildfires Events ●31 lives lost in the wildfire in Liangshan Yi autonomous prefecture. ●The wildfire in Canada ________ thousands of homes. ________ ●By nature: ⒈Lighting or some other special weather conditions. ⒉Global warming ________ to high temperatures and dry conditions. ●By people: ⒈People clear the land for farting. ⒉Smoke set fires by ________. Influence ●Wildfires can cause a lot of air ________. ●Lives, property and valuable forests disappear. ●More disasters will happen. 【答案】 destroyed/ruined/damaged；Causes/Reasons；leads；accident/chance；pollution/problems
6．完成图表，根据短文内容，完成图表中所缺信息。
In 30 years from now, what will we eat? Will the food still be the same as it is now?
The United Nations says that there will be over 9 billion people in the world by 2050. Our food needs will grow by 70%. What we eat now may not be enough for humans in the future. That is to say, we'll have to turn to something else. But what else can we eat? Here are a few possible choices.
Veggie (Vegetable) meat
A new kind of hamburger is now popular in the US. It looks the same as any other hamburger, and so is the taste. But it's actually a \"beef\" burger made out of plants. The company behind the burger, Impossible Foods, uses peas and potatoes to make the \"beef\". They take coloring, protein (蛋白质) and fats from these plants and mix them together.
Making meat out of plants uses less water and land than raising animals for meat. It also creates fewer green house gases. Some food companies are making chicken, pork and other meat out of plants, too-follow the same steps as making the \"beef\". Insects
Insects take up little space and don't make much waste. They also have more protein than beef, chicken and pork. This makes insects another possible food of the future.
It's common for people in some places to eat whole insects. But most people probably won't want to see the insects they eat. So in the future, people will first turn insects used for food into powder (粉末). Then they can use the powder to make other foods like chips, protein bars, biscuits and so on. Algae
The BBC says algae farming could become the world's biggest farming industry in the future. They point out that algae is cheap and grows very quickly. Also, it's very nutritious (有营养的). It has much more protein and oil than many other plants.
Besides eating algae as a dish on its own, people may also use algae oil and algae butter in the future. Some algae has a strong taste. The UK scientists are trying to use algae to take the place of salt.
①________ ②________ ③________ ④________ ________ ⑤________
【答案】 satisfy / meet the needs；environment and health；meat；sick / terrible；scared / frightened；strong taste
7．根据短文内容，从下列七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
Sleep plays an important role in brain (大脑) development. Children should get enough sleep. ________ A study says that because of being short of sleep, it is much harder for children to do something carefully. And also they become forgetful and easy to make mistakes. Another study shows that the right amount of night—time sleep is just as important for children's development as healthy eating and taking exercise.
________ In general a younger child needs more sleep than an older one. Children at the age of 5-11 will need 10-12 hours of sleep a night while children at the age of more than 11 will need less hours.
In fact, many parents don't know how to help their children get enough sleep. Here is something you can do. For children at the age of 5-11, a 30-40 minutes' routine (常规) before sleep is helpful.________ In the activities, children relax and enjoy themselves a lot, and they will

8．阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题后面的词数要求)。
Much meaning can be carried clearly with our eyes，so it is often said that eyes can speak. Do you have such kind of experience? On a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. And if he finds that he is being looked at, he may feel uncomfortable. It's the same in daily life. If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look yourself up and down, to see if there is something wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry toward the person who is looking at you that way. Eyes do speak, right?
Looking too long at someone may seem to be impolite. But sometimes things are different. If a man looks at a woman for more than 10 seconds, it may mean that he wishes to attract her attention, and to make her understand that he loves her. When two people are in a conversation, the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what he or she is saying. Lovers will enjoy looking at each other or being looked at for a long time, to show something that words cannot express.
Clearly，eye contact(接触)should be done according to the relationship between two people and the place where you stay.
（1）What can your eyes carry clearly according to the passage？(不超过5个词)
（2）Why will the speaker look at the listener from time to time when they are in a conversation？(不超过20个词)
（3）What should you think about when making eye contact？(不超过15个词) 【答案】 （1）Much meaning.
（2）To make sure that the listener does pay attention to what he or she is saying. （3）The relationship between two people and the place where we stay.
【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文叙述了很多意思都能用我们的眼睛清楚地表达出来，所以常说眼睛会说话。眼神是可以交流的。
（1）细节理解题。根据第一段第一行句子Much meaning can be carried clearly with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak. 我们的眼睛能清楚地表达许多意思，所以人们常说眼睛能说话。可知能表达很多意思，故答案为Much meaning。
（2）细节理解题。根据第二段第二行句子When two people are in a conversation， the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what he or she is saying. 当两个人在谈话时，说话者只会不时地看着听者，以确保听者确实注意到他或她在说什么，可知为了确保听者注意他或她所说的话，故答案为To make sure that the listener does pay attention to what he or she is saying.。 （3）细节理解题。根据最后一段句子Clearly, eye contact（接触）should be done according to the relationship between two people and the place where you stay. 很明显，眼神交流应该根据两个人之间的关系和你们所在的位置而定。可知由两个人之间的关系和你们所在的位置而定。故答案为The relationship between two people and the place where you stay.。 【点评】考查任务型阅读，关键在看懂文章，然后根据题目要求作答，注意尽量用文章的语言填写答案。在文章中找不到答案时，要完全理解句子，根据同义词，句型转换的方式找到可以替换文章中的单词，短语或者句子的词。

10．阅读信息，用恰当的单词完成下面的短文，每空一词。
Our feelings influence almost every decision we make. Instead of living a boring life, positive (积极的) feelings can help us a lot. The pity is that sometimes become victims of feelings. In one of my latest books, I compare people's ability to controls (控制) on a media player. Just like the controls can help you enjoy wonderful songs, these methods will be choices for you to manage feelings successfully.
⒈Pause.
Take time to stop and think before you speak or act. Of course, you may feel sorry if you like doing something without thinking-like sending an angry email or posting something bad on social media. If you feel your feelings getting out of control, pause. If possible, go for a short walk. Once you've calmed down, decide how you want to move forward.
⒉Volume control
Have you ever noticed that when speaking with someone, your style or tone is a mirror (镜子) of the person's you are speaking to? If you stay calm or quiet, they'll follow you. Shout or scream, and they'll do just like you. If a discussion starts to become worse, try to change it by softening your tone or lowering your voice.
⒊Record
If you want to learn more about another person's thoughts, recording, one way of careful listening, may help. You don't need to reply at once; you're listening to understand. Through careful listening, you often see things you didn't see before and can even discover misunderstandings you didn't know. Don't judge or offer advice before you know more about others and the topic.
Sometimes, our decisions are affected by our feelings. If you keep positive feelings, you can ________ living a boring life. Some methods can help you ________ in controlling your feelings. First, doing without thinking may make you ________what you've said or done. It's wise of you to pause when your feelings become bad. Second, when speaking with someone, the other person usually offers you a reply in the ________ style or tone. So controlling volume is very important. What's more, recording is one way of careful listening, with the ________ of learning more about another person's thoughts. Follow this way, you can judge or offer suggestions. 【答案】 avoid；succeed；regret；same；help

（3）根据 Of course, you may feel sorry if you like doing something without thinking 可知做事情不三思而后行会感到后悔，regret后悔，遗憾，故答案为：regret。
（4）根据 If you stay calm or quiet, they'll follow you. Shout or scream, and they'll do just like you. 可知你的情绪决定人们怎么样回复你，所以人们用用同样的类型或语调回复你，same同样的，故答案为：same。
（5）根据 If you want to learn more about another person's thoughts, recording, one way of careful listening, may help. with the help of，在……帮助下，固定搭配，故答案为：help。 【点评】此题考查任务型阅读理解。先阅读短文理解短文大意。然后进行审题。看题目中所缺的成分，然后根据短文内容填写适当的词。
