第一节 （共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Zachariah Fike has an unusual hobby. He finds old military (军队的) medals for sale in antique stores and on the Internet. But unlike most collectors, Zac tracks down the medals’ rightful owners, and returns them.
His effort to reunite families with lost medals began with a Christmas gift from his mother, a Purple Heart with the name Corrado A.G. Piccoli, found in an antique shop. Zac knows the meaning of a Purple Heart — he earned one himself in a war as a soldier. So when his mother gave him the medal, he knew right away what he had to do.
Through the Internet, Zac tracked down Corrado’s sister Adeline Rockko. But when he finally reached her, the woman flooded him with questions: “Who are you? What antique shop?” However, when she hung up, she regretted the way she had handled the call. So she called Zac back and apologized. Soon she drove to meet Zac in Watertown, N.Y. “At that point, I knew she meant business,” Zac says. “To drive eight hours to come to see me.”
The Piccolis grew up the children of Italian immigrants in Watertown. Corrado, a translator for the Army during WWII, was killed in action in Europe.
Before hearing from Zac, Adeline hadn’t realized the medal was missing. Like many military medals, the one Zac’s mother had found was a family treasure. “This medal was very precious to my parents. Only on special occasions (场合) would they take it out and let us hold it in our hands,” Adeline says.
As a child, Adeline couldn’t understand why the medal was so significant. “But as I grew older,” Adeline says, “and missed my brother more and more, I realized that was the only thing we had left.” Corrado Piccoli’s Purple Heart medal now hangs at the Italian American Civic Association in Watertown.
Zac recently returned another lost medal to a family in Alabama. Since he first reunited Corrado’s medal, Zac says his record is now 5 for 5.
21. Where did Zac get a Purple Heart medal for himself? A. In the army. B. In an antique shop. C. From his mother. D. From Adeline Rockko. 22. What did Zac realize when Adeline drove to meet him? A. She was very impolite. B. She was serious about the medal. C. She suspected his honesty. D. She came from a wealthy family. 23. What made Adeline treasure the Purple Heart? A. Her parents’ advice. B. Her knowledge of antiques. C. Her childhood dream. D. Her memory of her brother. 语篇解读

Money with no strings attached. It’s not something you see every day. But at Union Station in Los Angeles last month, a board went up with dollar bills attached to it with pins and a sign that read, “Give What You Can, Take What You Need.”
People quickly caught on. And while many took dollars, many others pinned their own cash to the board. “People of all ages, races, and socio-economic (社会经济的) backgrounds gave and took,” said Tyler Bridges of The Toolbox, which created the project. “We even had a bride in her wedding dress come up to the board and take a few

dollars. ” Most of the bills on the board were singles, but a few people left fives, tens and even twenties. The video clip (片段) shows one man who had found a $ 20 bill pinning it to the board.
“What I can say for the folks that gave the most, is that they were full of smiles,” Bridges said. “There’s a certain feeling that giving can do for you and that was apparent in those that gave the most.” Most people who took dollars took only a few, but Bridges said a very small number took as much as they could.
While the clip might look like part of a new ad campaign, Bridges said the only goal was to show generosity and sympathy. He added that he hopes people in other cities might try similar projects and post their own videos on the Internet.
“After all, everyone has bad days and good days,” he said. “Some days you need a helping hand and some days you can be the one giving the helping hand.”
24. What does the expression “money with no strings attached” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Money spent without hesitation. B. Money not legally made.
C. Money offered without conditions. D. Money not tied together.
25. What did Bridges want to show by mentioning the bride?
A. Women tended to be more sociable. B. The activity attracted various people. C. Economic problems were getting worse. D. Young couples needed financial assistance. 26. Why did Bridges carry out the project?
A. To do a test on people’s morals. B. To raise money for his company. C. To earn himself a good reputation. D.

California has lost half its big trees since the 1930s, according to a study to be published Tuesday and climate change seems to be a major factor (因素).
The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46,000 square miles of California forests, the new study finds. No area was spared or unaffected, from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles. In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent.
Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick McIntyre, an ecologist who was the lead author of the study. Woodcutters targeted big trees. Housing development pushed into the woods. Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources (资源).
But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010, McIntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was evident even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development.
The loss of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage. The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed, taking into account such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness of soil, and the timing of snowmelt (融雪).
Since the 1930s, McIntyre said, the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air, and earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season.
27. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The seriousness of big-tree loss in California. B. The increasing variety of California big trees. C. The distribution of big trees in California forests. D. The influence of farming on big trees in California.
28. Which of the following is well-intentioned but may be bad for big trees? A. Ecological studies of forests. B. Banning woodcutting. C. Limiting housing development. D. Fire control measures.
4
29. What is a major cause of the water shortage according to McIntyre? A. Inadequate snowmelt. B. A longer dry season. C. A warmer climate. D. Dampness of the air. 30. What can be a suitable title for the text?

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。 Rock music consists of many different styles. Even though there is a common spirit among all music groups, they make very different music. 31 At that time the Beatles entered the world of music from Liverpool.
After they were given an invitation to appear live on BBC, the Beatles quickly became famous in Britain with nationwide tours. By mid-1963, the Beatles had been extremely popular in England. 32 They held large concerts and performed at clubs. They became the hottest thing on the pop music scene in England. They began as a modestly successful musician group and ended the year as show business legends (传说). John Lennon and Paul McCartney were named composers of the year.
33 They were not sure how the Americans would react to the new type of music. Beatlemania hit New York on February 7, 1964. Hundreds of fans jammed the airport to greet them. 34 The concert was broadcast live and attracted the largest one night audience in the history of television up to that time. The Beatles were described as a British invasion (入侵) by local and nationwide newspapers at that time. Their victory in America was still remembered as a major turning point in the history of rock and roll. Thanks to the Beatles, a lot of opportunities were opened up to new faces on the market. 35 A. They decided on a tour to the United States in 1964. B. Even their hairstyles became major trends at that time. C. Rock music developed in the 1950s and the early 1960s.
D. However, their songs changed the lives of generations to come.
E. Many rock bands were able to follow in the footsteps of the Beatles. F. They appeared in the films A Hard Day’s Night (1964) and Help! (1965).

rock music, the Beatles 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了披头士乐队的发展历程。 6
百科知识 1. the Beatles 当年约翰·列侬说他想把beat（节奏）这层含义加到自己的乐队的名字里去，再加上以往乐队名字的一些启发，于是就改了beetles中的e字母，成了今天的beatles，简而言之，披头士是他们英文发音的音译，而甲壳虫是beetles的直译，不是披头士真正的名字，另外叫“披头士”也和四个人后期都留长头发有关，也有叫“披头四”的，都是正确的叫法。 2. Beatlemania （披头士热） 1964年2月7日，英国乐队披头士第一次正式登陆美国（纽约），当飞机降落在肯尼迪机场的时候，还在等待出关的这四个年轻人也许不会想到，候机大厅里已经挤进了3 000多名歌迷，等待一睹他们的风采。超过5 000名歌迷预订了纽约的演出票，但是只有750人最后幸运地进入到了场地中，如果没有那些安全栏，披头士的小伙们也许早就被失去理智的现场歌迷们，尤其是女歌迷们，压死在异乡了。 从此，这场演出的标题 —— Beatlemania被全世界人记住，并且用他们对披头士的热情将这个合成词不断发扬光大。mania是狂躁症的意思，绝对完美地形容了当时全世界对这支乐队的喜爱和疯狂。 3. John Lennon 约翰·列侬，出生于英国利物浦，英国摇滚乐队“披头士”成员， 摇滚音乐家，诗人，社会活动家。 4. CBS 哥伦比亚广播公司，缩写为CBS，英文全称（Columbia Broadcasting System）美国三大全国性商业广播电视网之一。 原文出处 选自bartleby writing，名为How The Beatles Changed Rock Music Essay的文章。 https://www.bartleby.com/writing/document/PKJZVTYZTJ 语言知识 重难点词 重难点 词块 group乐队；live adv在现场直播；nationwide [合成词]全国性的；hot风靡一时的；name v选中，评为；hit v 轰动；jam v （人或车）挤满，挤进；footstep [合成词]足迹 consist of 由……构成；the world of music音乐界；nationwide tour全国巡演；music scene音乐圈；modestly successful小有成就；composer of the year年度最佳作曲者；decide on （仔细考虑后）决定； react to（对……）作出反应，回应；up to直到（那个时刻）；be remembered as sth因某事而成名；turning point转折点；rock and roll 摇滚乐；new face新面孔；follow in sb’s footsteps 仿效某人 They began as a modestly successful musician group and ended the year as show business legends. 句意为：他们开始是一个小有成就的乐队，到年底成为演艺界的神话。 长难句 分析 答案与解析

As you can 40 , the trip is no piece of cake. While restaurants 41 tons of food each year, much of it remains inaccessible because of 42 garbage containers, health regulations, or business policies. Only about one in ten places 43 him food that would otherwise be discarded. For legal 44 , most restaurants have a policy against 45 food waste. “Some people have even 46 their jobs by giving me food,” Dubanchet said.
What’s 47 interesting is the attitude various cities have toward Dubanchet’s cause. Berlin has been the 48 while the most difficult was the Czech town of Pilsen. There, he had to 49 at some 50 different stores or restaurants before finding food. The 50 is all the more serious when you consider the 51 exercise required to bike from France to Poland.
“I have to get food 52 because after all the biking I am tired and I need the 53 ,” Dubanchet explained. “Is my 54 full or empty? That is the most important thing, not what I am eating.”
He aims to 55 his journey by mid-July. With any luck, he’ll turn a few more heads in the process. 36. A. cleverer B. older C. stranger D. simpler 37. A. garbage-eating B. sports-loving

答案与解析
36. C 通读全文可知，巴蒂特斯从巴黎骑行到波兰首都华沙，一路上只吃被丢弃的食物，他这么做的目的是让人们关注食物浪费这一现象，此举很奇特，而想法越奇特就越能引起人们的注意。
37. A 根据下文 surviving … on discarded food可知，巴蒂特斯吃的是被丢弃的食物，因此他吃的都是垃圾。 38. C 根据下文可知，巴蒂特斯整个行程完全只吃被丢弃的食物。
39. B 此空前面的意思为巴蒂特斯从巴黎骑行到波兰首都华沙，历时三个月，全程1900英里，空后面表明此举的目的，即为提高人们对食物浪费现象的认识所采取的方法。
40. B 根据常识，整个旅行绝非易事是可想而知的。a piece of cake 意为“小菜一碟，非常容易的事”。 41. D 上文提到discarded food，因此可知这里是指饭店每年丢弃大量的食物。 42. A 上文的much of it remains inaccessible里的it指代饭店丢弃的食物，这些食物无法得到，原因是垃圾箱被锁等。
43. B 根据上文的much of it remains inaccessible because of … garbage containers, health regulations, or business policies.可知，只有十分之一的地方会给他食物。
44. A 上文提到health regulations, or business policies（卫生条例或者商业政策），因此可知这里指的是法律上的原因。
45. B 根据下文的giving me food可知，此空应该填giving away。
46. D 根据上文可知，大多数饭店有不能把垃圾食物赠与他人的政策，因此，一些人是冒着丢掉工作的风险给巴蒂特斯食物的。
47. C 下文讲述了不同的城市对巴蒂特斯这一事业的态度，这些不同的态度尤其耐人寻味。 48. A 此空后面的while表示对比，因此根据the most difficult可知此空填easiest。
49. C There指代的是前面的the Czech town of Pilsen，在这里要垃圾食物最难，因此可知，他得向大约50家商店或饭店进行索要后才能获得食物。
50. D 巴蒂特斯从巴黎骑行到波兰首都华沙，一路上只吃被丢弃的食物，这是一项艰巨的任务。
9
51. C 根据下文exercise required to bike from France to Poland可知，从法国骑车到波兰是非常费力的体力活动。 52. D 根据下文because after all the biking I am tired and I need the …可知，巴蒂特斯需要尽快获取食物来维持体力。
53. B 前面提到after all the biking I am tired，因此可知巴蒂特斯需要食物补充的能量。 54. A 根据下文That is the most important thing, not what I am eating可知，巴蒂特斯关心的只是肚子饿不饿的问题，至于吃什么不重要。
55. D 结合第二段内容可知，巴蒂特斯力争七月中旬前结束这次旅程。

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。 There are several reasons why school uniforms are a good idea. First of all, uniforms help the school look smart. The students feel that they belong to a particular group. When every pupil in the school wears the uniform, nobody 56 (have) to worry about fashion (时尚). Everybody wears 57 same style of clothes. Uniforms can be useful in unexpected ways. A school in Ireland has introduced an interesting new uniform. On the edge of the jacket, there is a piece of cloth 58 gives off light in the dark. When the children are walking or 59 (cycle) to school on dark mornings, car drivers can 60 (easy) see them.
But can uniforms help improve school standards? The answer 61 this question is not clear. One study in America found that students’ grades 62 (improve) a little after the school introduced uniforms. But some students didn’t want 63 (wear) the uniform. Other American studies showed no 64 (connect) between uniforms and school performance. School uniforms are 65 (tradition) in Britain, but some schools are starting to get rid of them. Some very good schools don’t have a uniform policy. However, uniforms are still popular. Pupils at about 90 percent of British secondary schools wear uniforms. 考点分布：

56. has / will have 在含有时间状语从句的复合句中，当主句和从句的谓语动词均表示将来的动作时，通常从句的谓语动词用一般现在式，主句的谓语动词用将来式。此处用has / will have表示倾向性。 57. the 此处与same构成固定搭配。
58. that / which 根据句子结构可知，空白处缺少引导定语从句的关系代词。先行词是a piece of cloth，为物，关系代词在定语从句中作主语，故用that或者which。
59. cycling 根据语境When children are walking or …可知cycle应与walking在形式上一致。 60. easily 修饰句中的动词see用副词。
61. to answer后接介词to，意为“……的答案”。

62. improved 根据语境One study in America found that … 可知讲述的是过去的事情，故用动词improve的一般过去式。
63. to wear want后面通常接不定式 to do sth。
64. connection / connections 根据Other American studies showed no …可知此处需要名词，此处可用connection的单数或复数形式作宾语。
65. traditional 该句为主系表结构，故用tradition的形容词形式traditional作表语。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 应用文写作（满分15分） 假定你是李华，经常帮助你学习英语的朋友Alex即将返回自已的国家。请给他写一封邮件，内容包括：

第二节 概要写作 （满分25分）
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Parents everywhere praise their kids. Jenn Berman, author of The A to Z Guide to Raising Happy and Confident Kids, says, “We’ve gone to the opposite extreme of a few decades ago when parents tended to be more strict.” By giving kids a lot of praise, parents think they’re building their children’s confidence, when, in fact, it may be just the opposite. Too much praise can backfire and, when given in a way that’s insincere, make kids afraid to try new things or take a risk for fear of not being able to stay on top where their parents’ praise has put them.
Still, don’t go too far in the other direction. Not giving enough praise can be just as damaging as giving too much. Kids will feel like they’re not good enough or that you don’t care and, as a result, may see no point in trying hard for their accomplishments.
So what is the right amount of praise? Experts say that the quality of praise is more important than the quantity. If praise is sincere and focused on the effort not the outcome, you can give it as often as your child does something that deserves a verbal reward. “We should especially recognize our children’s efforts to push themselves and work hard to achieve a goal,” says Donahue, author of Parenting Without Fear: Letting Go of Worry and Focusing on What Really Matters. “One thing to remember is that it’s the process not the end product that matters.”
Your son may not be the best basketball player on his team. But if he’s out there every day and playing hard, you should praise his effort regardless of whether his team wins or loses. Praising the effort and not the outcome can also mean recognizing your child when she has worked hard to clean the yard, cook dinner, or finish a book report. But whatever it is, praise should be given on a case-by-case basis and be proportionate (相称的) to the amount of effort your child has put into it. 出处：

Parents tend to go to extremes when it comes to praising their kids. However, both too much and too little praise can be damaging. When giving praise, parents should be sincere and focus on the process rather than the result. They are supposed to give praise according to how much effort their kids have put into the work they chose to do.
