AFor students at the Farm School in Hamilton, Virginia, the classroom is outside every day. Jaclyn Jenkins is the founder of the school. “The No. 1 question we get immediately from parents is ‘What happens if it rains?’ And we say, ‘Bring an extra set of clothes!’” Jenkins adds, “We still educate them. Their brains are working when they’re moving. So, our goal is to always be outside.” The Farm School is a preschool, a place for 3- and 4-year-olds to learn and play.Alison Huff has taught at other schools. She says the Farm School gives its students more of a hands-on learning experience. For example, children use pumpkins to learn about colors and counting. They learn about measurement by planting seeds 30 centimeters apart. Huff adds, “We can use everything a regular preschool uses, but out in the garden.” In addition to planting vegetables and fruits, children help prepare food and clean up afterwards. The school teaches the children to cook using the food they hav e grown. “They can see the benefits of what they have in the garden and taste it then instead of going to the grocery store and buying it,” says Huff.The preschoolers also learn words in languages other than English. Huff speaks in both English and Spanish. Her assistant speaks French and Arabic. A 3-year-old in her class speaks four different languages.Farm animals are also an important part of the education program. Jenkins says the children learn about a different animal every month. Two months ago, she says, that animal was a cow. “We do actually have a cow that we bring to the school. They get to see what the cow is like, an learn what cows eat. They use little gloves and pretend to actually milk a cow. They make butter and yogurt.” The children spent another month with a large bird —a turkey.The idea for a school like this started after Jenkins and her husband bought a farm in Hamilton, with a late 18th-century house. They called it “One Day Farm” because years earlier they had hoped that “one day” they would have a farm. “That’s when it started, the spark of a farm school,” said Jenkins.21. What is the biggest difference between the farm school and others?A. There are many plants and animals at this school.B. This school is mainly for students to learn fanning.C. Almost all the activities lake place outside at this school.D. This school is quite popular among parents and children.22. What don’t the children do at this school?A. Raise turkeys and cows.B. Plant vegetables and fruits.C. Prepare food and clean up.D. Recognize colors and count.23. How is Paragraph 4 developed in the text?A. By listing.B. By comparison.C. By logic.D. By example.24. What made Jenkins found this school?A. Parents’ preference for a farm.B. Her desire to own a farm.C. A request from the government.D. Children’s love of playing outside.BFor years now, I’ve been wanting to sell our house, the place where my husband and I raised ou r children. But to me, this house is much more than just a building.In th e front room, there’s a wall that has hundreds of pencil lines, marking the progress of my children’s growth. Every growth stage is marked in grey, with each child’s name and the dat e when they were measured. Most people I know have been featured on a wall like this, or at least had a wall like it in their home.Of all the objects and memories, it is this thing in a home that is the hardest to leave behind. Friends I know have returned home after work only to discover their wall of heights has been freshly painted over. A new paint job wouldn’t normally be greeted by tears, but erasing that evidence of mo therhood hurts more than it should. Our children grow in so many ways, but the wall is the physical evidence of their progress, right there for everyone to see.Over the years, I’v e talked about how much I would hate leaving that wall behind when I moved, even though the last marks were made 10 years ago when my children stopped growing.So one day, while I was at work, my children decided to do something about it. They hired Jacquie Manning, a professional photographer. She came to our house, and over several hours, took photos of the hundreds of drawings and lines, little grey fingerprints and old marks. Somehow, she managed to photograph all those years of memories perfectly. Afterwards, she put all the photos together into one image, changing them into a beautiful history of myfamily.Three weeks later, my children’s wonderful gift m ade its way to me — a life-size photo of the pencil lines and fingerprints that represents an entire lifetime of love and growth.25. Why did die author use her friends* example in Paragraph 3?A. To show the meaning of keeping good memories.B. To share her memory of motherhood with readers.C. To persuade her family to leave the wall as it was.D. To explain why her house badly needed a new paint job.26. What can we infer about the author from the passage?A. She was strongly against selling their house.B. She kept marks for family members every year.C. She was not happy with the gift from her family.D. She put great love and care in raising her children.27. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To give advice on how to make gifts for parents.B. To suggest a special way to record family history.C. To show that memories of love and growth matter.D. To introduce several ways to communicate with children.CAs soon as the Thanksgiving holiday is over, Santa Clauses start appearing everywhere. It takes more than red clothing and a white beard to be a professional Santa In fact many successful Santas attend special classes.The CW Howard Santa School, one of the oldest Santa Claus school in the world, is in Midland, Michigan. It celebrated its 80th anniversary last year. Over 250 Santas gathered at the school to prepare for their seasonal work. Charlie Howard was the Santa Claus in the Macy*s Thanksgiving Day Parade for 17 years. He started the school in 1937.“At that time, there was a gr eat need for good Santas. Santas didn’t portray the character that we want. Santa Claus stands for all good th ings hut some of the gentlemen’s images (形象) weren’t up to the expectation,” said Charlie.The three-day Santa workshop teache s people “Santa sign language”, facts abou t deer and clothing and make-up style. The future Santas also become familiar with the newest wish list toys, gain (获得) interviewexperience for radio and television and even get advice on how to do their business taxes.It’s said that a bout 15,000 students have graduated from the Santa school. They come from all over North America, Europe，Africa and Australia to study. Last year the school welcomed Santas from all 50 states as well as many other countries.The Santas never claim (声称) t o be the one and only “real” Santa. Instead, they describe themselves as “the spirit of Christmas”. At the sc hool’s opening-night activity, they tell visiting children they are the “cousins of Santa”.Robert Davis says they also never promise children anything. Instead, they say they will try their best.After all, as Charlie Howard liked to say, “He is wrong who thinks Santa enters through the chimney (烟囱). Santa enters through the heart.’’28. What can we learn about Santa from the text?A. Professional Santas are more popular nowadays.B. A professional Santa must be trained in a Santa school.C. To be a professional Santa is quite easy for most people.D. It just lakes red clothing and a white heard to be a real Santa.29. The underlined word “portray” in Paragraph 3 probably means“”.A. formB. changeC. drawD. act30. Which of the following is not among the duties of a Santa?A. Promising the children anything they want.B. Getting familiar with the newest wish list toys.C. Gaining interview experience for radio and television.D. Taking part in school activities to meet visiting children.31. What can be inferred from the text?A. The Santas always describe themselves to be real ones.B. The aim of the training is to spread the spirit of Christmas.C. The Santas are trained to enter the house through a chimney.D. People care more about the gifts than the encouragement they get.DScientists are using robots to study the health of waters in and around Venice, Italy. The robots are designed to act like fish, other underwater creatures and plants. The scientists are working with several universities and research centers as part of a group called subCULTron. The European Union gives money to the project as part of its Horizon2020 program whose aim is to take great ideas from the lab to the market and support science and innovation (创新) in Europe. The scientists want to use the artificial intelligence of the robots to help humans understand what is happening under the water of the Venice lagoon (潟湖).SubCULTron, a collective artificial intelligence project, plans to create the biggest shoal (鱼群) of robot fish in the world. The project’s aim is to improve knowledge of the seabed and try to turn human abilities into hi-tech items.Alexandre Campo, a computer scientist, says the scientists have looked at the way animals learn to work in groups to understand how robots can learn to work together. The subCULTron project wants its robots to learn to work together so they can watch out for changes and new problems in the water.One problem the researchers had in the beginning was how the robots would communicate with each other. Wi-Fi and GPS equipment don’t work underwater. Instead，the robots can use sonar (声呐) and an electric field.Another problem was charging batteries. The robots come up to the water’s surface and stay near a boat or a power station to charge without any electrical cables. Besides, how to be water- proof, especially for some key pads of the robots, was really tough. Fortunately, a special mixture has been created to be pinned on the robot, which successfully stands the test of water.The health state of the lagoon is pretty good. There are no industrial polluters, and the city now has a modem sewer (污水管) system. It’s not like before when all the waste flushed directly into the water. T he robots in Venice will continue their work until 2019. The subCULTron project hopes they develop into “an artificial society underneath the water surface” that serves “a human society above the water”.32. What can we learn about the project in Paragraph 1?A. Its researchers arc all from universities.B. The European Union has financially supported it.C. It uses robots to clean the waters in and around Venice.D. It is aimed to support science and innovation worldwide.33. What can we infer according to Alexandre Campo?A. Scientists have got an idea for robots from the animals.B. The robots are working separately to perform their tasks.C. SubCULTron is to turn human abilities into hi-tech items.D. The health state of the lagoon has greatly improved recently.34. The underlined word “they” in the last paragraph probably refers to “”.A. scientistsB. animalsC. robotsD. humans35. What does the author mainly want to tell us in the passage?A. Robots are coining into our cities soon.B. Animals can tell us how to clean the water.C. Waters in Venice have been greatly cleaned.D. Robot fish watch out for the waters in Venice.第二节(共5小題;每小題2分，满分10分）根据短文容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

In order to reduce air pollution and heavy traffic, our city has started to carry out the new license number-plate restrictions since January 1, 2018. I conducted a survey on it recently.
Many people agree that the system, to some extent, has reduced the environment pollution and relieved the pressure of transportation. However, every coin has two sides. Many car owners complain that it is annoying that they are not allowed to drive their own cars, especially when something is urgent.

First thing that passed through my mind was that it must be a misunderstanding, such a look was not meant for me, but later I saw the old lady’s face changing every time she saw me, at least seven times, no more doubt that she was very angry with me.I was confused, shocked, and near anger, my brains were spinning, trying to figure out h ow’s and why’s but somehow managed to not show it on my face. Went home, slept a night over it and decided that I have to find a way to break the ice with this lady.The very next day I bought some nice chocolate praying to see her again and when I caught sight of her, went straight to her and apologized telling her “I am so very sorry if I angered you, I had no such intention, please accept my apologizes”, and handled her the chocolate. Surprised, she told me not to mind her, and apologized too. It was an awkward moment, but we made peace and the grimaces换成embarrassment is/ are replaced by smiles now.I am very grateful for this experience, it shows me I still have plenty of work to do with my mind, I learned how it is not easy to take knowledge of, accept and forgive acts that we may feel as unfair, and it taught me of possibilities about fixing a conflict. Best advice to keep for myself? Do not react, do not be quick to judge, sleep it over, and throw in a pinch of empathy for self as well as others.（304词）24. The underlined phrase “out of the blue” in paragraph 1 probably means __________.A. unexpectedlyB. curiously。

tears,but erasing that evidence of motherhood hurts more than it should.Our children grow in so many ways,but the wall is the physical evidence of their progress,right there for everyone to see.Over the years,I've talked about how much I would hate leaving that wall behind when I moved, even though the last marks were made10years ago when my children stopped growing.So one day,while I was at work,my children decided to do something about it.They hired Jacquie Manning,a professional photographer.She came to our house,and over several hours,took photos of the hundreds of drawings and lines,little grey fingerprints and old marks.Somehow,she managed to photograph all those years of memories perfectly.Afterwards,she put all the photos together into one image,changing them into a beautiful history of my family.Three weeks later,my children's wonderful gift made its way to me—a life-size photo of the pencil lines and fingerprints that represents an entire lifetime of love and growth.（1）（2分）Why did die author use her friends*example in Paragraph3?A．To show the meaning of keeping good memories.B．To share her memory of motherhood with readers.C．To persuade her family to leave the wall as it was.D．To explain why her house badly needed a new paint job.（2）（2分）What can we infer about the author from the passage?A．She was strongly against selling their house.B．She kept marks for family members every year.C．She was not happy with the gift from her family.D．She put great love and care in raising her children.（3）（2分）What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To give advice on how to make gifts for parents.B．To suggest a special way to record family history.C．To show that memories of love and growth matter.D．To introduce several ways to communicate with children.4．（8分）阅读理解As soon as the Thanksgiving holiday is over,Santa Clauses start appearing everywhere.It takes more than red clothing and a white beard to be a professional Santa In fact many successful Santas attend special classes.The CW Howard Santa School,one of the oldest Santa Claus school in the world,is in Midland,Michigan.It celebrated its80th anniversary last year.Over250Santas gathered at the school to prepare for their seasonal work.Charlie Howard was the Santa Claus in the Macy*s Thanksgiving Day Parade for17 years.He started the school in1937.“At that time,there was a great need for good Santas.Santas didn't portray the character that we want.Santa Claus stands for all good things hut some of the gentlemen's images(形象)weren't up to the expectation,”said Charlie.The three-day Santa workshop teaches people“Santa sign language”,facts about deer and clothing and make-up style.The future Santas also become familiar with the newest wish list toys,gain(获得) interview experience for radio and television and even get advice on how to do their business taxes.It's said that about15,000students have graduated from the Santa school.They come from all over North America,Europe，Africa and Australia to st year the school welcomed Santas from all50 states as well as many other countries.The Santas never claim(声称)to be the one and only“real”Santa.Instead,they describe themselves as“the spirit of Christmas”.At the school's opening-night activity,they tell visiting children they are the “cousins of Santa”.Robert Davis says they also never promise children anything.Instead,they say they will try their best.After all,as Charlie Howard liked to say,“He is wrong who thinks Santa enters through the chimney (烟囱).Santa enters through the heart.''（1）（2分）What can we learn about Santa from the text?A．Professional Santas are more popular nowadays.B．A professional Santa must be trained in a Santa school.C．To be a professional Santa is quite easy for most people.D．It just lakes red clothing and a white heard to be a real Santa.（2）（2分）The underlined word“portray”in Paragraph3probably means“”.A．form B．change C．draw D．act（3）（2分）Which of the following is not among the duties of a Santa?A．Promising the children anything they want.B．Getting familiar with the newest wish list toys.C．Gaining interview experience for radio and television.D．Taking part in school activities to meet visiting children.（4）（2分）What can be inferred from the text?A．The Santas always describe themselves to be real ones.B．The aim of the training is to spread the spirit of Christmas.C．The Santas are trained to enter the house through a chimney.D．People care more about the gifts than the encouragement they get.5．（8分）阅读理解Scientists are using robots to study the health of waters in and around Venice,Italy.The robots are designed to act like fish,other underwater creatures and plants.The scientists are working with several universities and research centers as part of a group called subCULTron.The European Union gives money to the project as part of its Horizon2020program whose aim is to take great ideas from the lab to the market and support science and innovation(创新)in Europe.The scientists want to use the artificial intelligence of the robots to help humans understand what is happening under the water of the Venice lagoon(潟湖).SubCULTron,a collective artificial intelligence project,plans to create the biggest shoal(鱼群)of robot fish in the world.The project's aim is to improve knowledge of the seabed and try to turn human abilities into hi-tech items.Alexandre Campo,a computer scientist,says the scientists have looked at the way animals learn to work in groups to understand how robots can learn to work together.The subCULTron project wants its robots to learn to work together so they can watch out for changes and new problems in the water.One problem the researchers had in the beginning was how the robots would communicate with each other.Wi-Fi and GPS equipment don't work underwater.Instead，the robots can use sonar(声呐)and an electric field.Another problem was charging batteries.The robots come up to the water's surface and stay near a boat or a power station to charge without any electrical cables.Besides,how to be water-proof,especially for some key pads of the robots,was really tough.Fortunately,a special mixture has been created to be pinned on the robot,which successfully stands the test of water.The health state of the lagoon is pretty good.There are no industrial polluters,and the city now has a modem sewer(污水管)system.It's not like before when all the waste flushed directly into the water.The robots in Venice will continue their work until2019.The subCULTron project hopes they develop into“an artificial society underneath the water surface”that serves“a human society above the water”.（1）（2分）What can we learn about the project in Paragraph1?A．Its researchers arc all from universities.B．The European Union has financially supported it.C．It uses robots to clean the waters in and around Venice.D．It is aimed to support science and innovation worldwide.（2）（2分）What can we infer according to Alexandre Campo?A．Scientists have got an idea for robots from the animals.B．The robots are working separately to perform their tasks.C．SubCULTron is to turn human abilities into hi-tech items.D．The health state of the lagoon has greatly improved recently.（3）（2分）The underlined word“they”in the last paragraph probably refers to“”. A．scientists B．animals C．robots D．humans（4）（2分）What does the author mainly want to tell us in the passage?A．Robots are coining into our cities soon.B．Animals can tell us how to clean the water.C．Waters in Venice have been greatly cleaned.D．Robot fish watch out for the waters in Venice.三、任务型阅读(共1题；共10分)6．（10分）任务型阅读Grow Your Vocabulary by Learning Root(词根)WordsEnglish is called one of the most difficult languages for non-native speakers.One reason is that English has so many rules and almost as many exceptions of those rules.Sometimes,this leaves learners confused(困惑的).Not all words can be pronounced by their spelling.And,maybe the worst thing of all is that there are many idioms,or expressions in English.That is why there are many funny mistakes resulting from the misuse of idioms.A root word is the most basic form of a word.Root words can help you to break down large, new words into smaller units to discover their meanings.As a result,by learning20or30root words,you can enlarge your English vocabulary to include hundreds of new words.A root can be any part of a word that carries meaning:the beginning,middle or end prefixes(前缀), bases,and suffixes(后缀)are types of roots.The prefix appears at the beginning of a word,the base in the middle and the suffix at the end.One simple method is to first look at a base word and then lookfor familiar prefixes and suffixes that go with that base.For example,the word“construct”is a verb that means“to build”.The prefix“con-”means“together”or“with”.So,“construct”means“to put things together to build or create something”.A.Another reason is related to the English pronunciation.B.You can say we use idioms like they're going out of style.C.The second difficulty lies in the spelling of the English words.D.Having a good knowledge of grammar is also useful for English learners.E.Building vocabulary through root words is quite useful for English learners.F.Learning just one root word can help you understand several words in English.G.However,it's comforting to know learning root words can help English learners.四、短文改错(共1题；共5分)7．（5分）假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

The group’s aim is to ensure that students have food in their stomachs so they can better fix their attention on the study in class.MacFarlane-Barrow, who runs Mary’s Meals on his father’s farm, told CNN that the entire operation started with a conversation he had with a teen living in a poor state. He said, “In 2002, I was in Malawi during a year of terribly short of food, and I met this family—the father had died, and the mother was dying with her six children around her. I began talking to her oldest child, Edward, who was about 14, and asked him, ‘What are your hopes?’ And he said, ‘I’d like to have enough food to eat, and I’d like to go to school one day’ ”And that was it.In its first year, the group fed 200 children in need. Since that time, it has made rapid progress. Last month, Mary’s Meals fed more than I million children every school day. That was 5 million meals every week. “The million is this amazingly important, but we are far from satisfied. Our work’s just beginning. We’v e proven that this works, and now we’v e just thinking about the next child,” said MacFarl ane-Barrow.He and the group recently celebrated the achievement (成就) in Malawi, where the program began. So far, the program has had very good results. In Malawi, schools that carried out the Mary’s Meals program saw a 24 percent increase in the number of new students within the first six months.24. Why did MacFarlane-Barrow found Mary’s Meals?A. He hoped to provide free food for poor families.B. He expected to teach children how to help others.C. He wanted to make children free of hunger in class.D. He wished to become well-known by helping others.25. What made MacFarlane-Barrow have the idea to start Mary’s Meals?A. I he conversation with a poor child.B. The terribly short of food in Malawi.C. The poor living conditions of schools.D. The success of helping a needy kid.26. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A. Schools in Malawi are popular.B. No children suffer from hunger now.C. Mary’s M eals program has been very successful.D. MacFarlane-Barrow is satisfied with the present result.27. What can be the best title for the text?A. Edward’s Dream Came into RealityB. Mary’s Meals Program Shocked the WorldC. Malawi Gets Away from Being Short of FoodD. A Farmer Feeds I Million Kids Every School DayCLast year I realized I hadn’t spo ken to anyone but my family members in days.When I left my job in my late twenties to write a novel, I felt very happy. No more forcing myself awake at the early hours of the morning and worrying what to wear, no more braving the subway during rush hour. I could wake up when I felt like it and enjoy my coffee as I worked on my book.At first it was like being in heaven. But months later I began to feel lonely. It was just me, my work, and the Internet. I spent hours looking through the website instead of writing. I thought I was still connected to everyone around me but in fact I was more lonely than ever. As a result, I became more afraid of being out in the world. I warned to step away from the lonely life I had brought to myself and have a normal schedule again. Iconsidered renting an office but I realized I would still be lonely. What I had in mind something Td had all those years ago—big shared table filled with people I really liked.I phoned a friend who worked at home too and asked if she would be interested in getting an office together. She’d been feeling just as lonely as I had, so she jumped at opportunity. I asked another friend to join us, and together we found a beautiful space in my favorite part of town. Others soon heard about our office and asked if they could join. There are nine of us here now. Each of us has found that we now love the routine (日常规律) of going to work again, and we are happier than before. Now, we tire needed by other people too.In my twenties, it felt like I was going to work every day with my best friends, and for the first time in years, I feel that way again. The loneliness has gone—I finally feel like I belong again.28.

I feel pity because I am actually skilled in the technology field. While I appreciate all the ways that technology has made our lives better, it comes at an environment cost.Electronic waste, also known as “e-waste”, is the term used to describe the rapidly I wing stream of waste from useless electronics. These items include anything from computers, TVs and phones to washing machines and refrigerators. Most of these electronics are often not rubbish, but simply given up for the latest version (版本) on the market.Findings show that we produced 41.8 million tons of e-waste all over the world in 2014. Even more surprisingly, it is believed that less than one-sixth is properly recycled or reused. While the bad influence of e-waste is big and growing, most people probably don’t realize its reach. The lack (缺乏) of proper recycling leads to harmful materials going into the environment. Harmful materials cause all sorts of health problems.Maybe the worst part of this problem is that most e-waste from developed countries is exported (出口) to developing countries, which is picked over by locals who want to mine useful materials from it. The improper recovery methods are often performed by local women and children. Many survive on mining these products, but with poor practices and regulations, it comesat a much higher cost—the health of the planet and its people.32. What does the author possibly do?A. A new reporter.B. A law student.C. A technical engineer.D. An environment professor.33. E-waste refers to electronic products that _________.A. are out of dateB. are actually rubbish.C. fail to be used againD. sell badly on the market.34. According to the text, how does the public see e-waster?A. They try to avoid it.B. They think nothing of it.C. They try to make use of it.D. They make lots of research on it.55. Why do some developing countries bring in e-waste?A. To earn money.B. To study it carefully.C. To get it reused properly.D. To help take it apart.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。
