一、阅读理解
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
He had more than 160 reports as a reporter on the Metro desk and more than 170
in 19 months as a national journalist based in Kansas City,Mo.But perhaps the most
important piece of writing that A.G.Sulzberger did for The New York Times before
Wednesday—when he was named deputy publisher—was not an article and was not
published in The Times,but was all about The Times.
That work came to be known as the “innovation(创新)report”,which zeroed in
on the importance of a digital future for the newspaper his family has owned since
1896 and said The Times risked losing its leading place if it did not make sweeping
changes.
In a conversation in his office on Wednesday,Mr.Sulzberger said he saw the
innovation report and the thinking that led to his conclusions as“a wakeup call
to the newsroom that we were at risk of missing the moment”.
“It was always easy to see how changes will endanger the traditions of the
place,”he said,“but what became really clear to me was not changing was the more
dangerous course if we cared about the traditions of the place.”
Unlike some of the former deputy publishers in his role,Mr.Sulzberger has been
more experienced in the newsroom than in advertising or consumer marketing.Still,his colleagues described him as a quick study whose modesty masked deep inner
confidence.Besides,in the newsroom or out on an assignment,Mr.Sulzberger did not
show off his connection to The Times' owners.“I recognized the name.”said Vincent
Bova,a video editor who figured in a feature article that Mr.Sulzberger wrote in
2010.“I mean,I knew I was dealing with royalty.There was no reason for me to bring
that up with him,and he didn't.”So Mr.Sulzberger,in some way,has qualified himself
for the position since long time ago.
1.A.G.Sulzberger wrote the“innovation report”mainly to ________.
A.urge revolutions in The Times
B.gain the position of deputy publisher
C.promote changes in New York City
D.show directions to his family future
2.What is the biggest threat to traditional media according to Mr.Sulzberger? 小初高学习+K12

B.Rapid social changes.
C.Their own stubbornness.
D.Decreasing readers.
3.How does the author show us what Mr.Sulzberger is like in the last paragraph?
A.By comparing him with others.
B.By interviewing him in person.
C.By giving examples of his routines.
D.By quoting comments from others.
4.What does the author think of Mr.Sulzberger according to the passage?
A.Casual. B.Objective.
C.Admirable. D.Critical.
【解题导语】本篇文章属于人物介绍类,介绍了著名出版人A.G.Sulzberger 对《纽约时报》的重要贡献,还介绍了他提出的“创新报道”理论以及他人对他的评价。
1.A 考查推理判断。根据第二段“That work came to be known as the ‘innovation(创新)report’ ,which zeroed in on the importance of a digital future...The Times
risked losing its leading place if it did not make sweeping changes”可知,“创新报道”关注报纸数字化未来的重要性,《纽约时报》如果不改革,则将面临危机。据此可以判断,A.G.Sulzberger提及“创新报道”的目的是敦促《纽约时报》进行变革,故A项正确。
2.C 考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“and said The Times risked losing its leading
place if it did not make sweeping changes”和文章中提到的“innovation report”可知,A.G.Sulzberger认为《纽约时报》如果不做出变革,则将面临危机;据此可以判断,A.G.Sulzberger认为传统媒体面临的最大的问题是它们固执己见,不思变革,故C项正确。
3.D 考查写作方法。通读最后一段可知,该段第二句介绍了同事对A.G.Sulzberger的评价,第四句和第五句介绍了视频编辑Vincent Bova对他的评价;据此可以判断,最后一段是通过别人的评价来描述A.G.Sulzberger的,故D项正确。
4.C 考查观点态度。通读全文可知, A.G.Sulzberger提出“创新报道”理论并前瞻性地认识到数字化时代对传统媒体的影响,意识到传统媒体变革的重要意义;据此可以判断,作者对A.G.Sulzberger的态度是钦佩的,故C项正确。
二、单句语法填空
1.(2017·江苏高考)________(determine) where we are in relation to our
surroundings remains an essential skill for our survival. 小初高学习+K12
小初高学习+K12 答案:Determining 分析句子结构可知,应用动名词短语作主语,即本句中Determining where we are in relation to our surroundings作主语,remains是谓语动词。
2.The ________(produce) of coffee beans is a huge, profitable business.
答案:production 由设空前的“the”和后面的“of”可知,应填所给词的名词形式。production “生产;制造”。
3.Nowadays, children have more ________(free); they can do whatever they like.
答案:freedom freedom 名词“自由”,在本句中作宾语。
4.Cats can help rid the home ________mice.
答案:of rid ... of “使摆脱或除去……”。
5.A heavy fire reduced 90 percent of the houses ________ashes.
答案:to reduce ... to ... “使……沦为……”。
6.I bitterly ________(regret) that I had missed the wonderful film.
答案:regretted 所填词由bitterly(副词)修饰,且由从句中had missed可知,此处用动词的一般过去时。
7.It is ________(disturb) to think about so much work to do.
答案:disturbing disturbing “令人不安的”,在句中作表语。
8.The discovery of new evidence led to the thief's ________(catch).
答案:being caught 本句中,lead to后接名词或动名词(短语),且the thief和catch存在被动关系,故填being caught,即动名词的被动结构,作lead to的宾语。
9.I am not ________(satisfy) with the way he cut my hair.
答案:satisfied be satisfied with ... 为固定短语,意为“对……感到满意”。

In the 1760s, Mathurin Roze opened a series of shops that boasted(享有) a special
meat soup called consommé. Although the main attraction was the soup, Roze's chain
shops also set a new standard for dining out, which helped to establish Roze as the
inventor of the modern restaurant.
Today, scholars have generated large amounts of instructive research about
restaurants. Take visual hints that influence what we eat: diners served themselves
about 20 percent more pasta(意大利面食) when their plates matched their food. When
a dark-colored cake was served on a black plate rather than a white one, customers
recognized it as sweeter and more tasty.
Lighting matters, too. When Berlin restaurant customers ate in darkness, they
couldn't tell how much they'd had: those given extra-large shares ate more than

Those who claim bananas are fattening argue that bananas cause the body to make
lots of insulin(胰岛素), and insulin causes fat growth.
How much insulin we produce is related to how fast food becomes sugar in our
bloodstream. How can you know if food makes a lot of sugar quickly? The glycemic
index(血糖指数), or GI rating tells us. Foods with GI scores above 75 are considered
highGI foods, leading to faster sugar development. Bananas have a GI of 62, which
is considered low.
Weight loss can be a struggle for anyone, but it is especially hard for diabetics(糖尿病患者). A study looked at how the starch from unripe bananas affected the weight
of a group of obese diabetics. After four weeks of a diet high in bananas, diabetics
lost significantly more weight than on a control diet. They also saw improvements
