Whenthe world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系)groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of eachother. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just fiveto ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and theirlanguages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade,industrialisation,the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, allhave caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish andChinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages ishugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;and Asia and the Pacific perhaps3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world’s languages are spoken byfewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left.Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon(eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150), Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu inAustralia(one, with a question-mark):none of these seems to have much chance of survival.28.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patterns.D.They were closely connected.29.Which of the following best explains“ dominant” underlined in paragraph 2?plex.B.Advanced.C.Powerful.D.Modern.30.How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?A.About 6,800.B.About 3,400.C.About 2,400.D.About 1,200.31.What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.People ’s lifestyle s are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.Geography determines language evolution.D(2018 课标全国Ⅰ ,D)We may think we ’re a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight ofsomething shiny and new, but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices( 装置 ) well after they go out of style. That ’s bad news for the environment —and our wallets — as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things.To figure out how much power these devices are using, Callie Babbitt and her colleaguesat the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for eachproduct throughout its life — from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device. This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s. Devices were grouped by generation. Desktop computers, basic mobile phones, and box-set TVs defined1992. Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997. And MP3 players, smartphones, and LCD TVsentered homes in 2002, before tablets and e-readers showed up in 2007.As we accumulated more devices, however, we didn ’t throw out our old ones. “The living-room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids ’ room, and s uddenly one day, you havea TV in every room of the house, ”said one researcher. The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007. We’re not just keeping these old devices — we continue to use them. According to the analysis of Babbitt ’s team, old desktop monitors andbox TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption andcontribution to greenhouse gas emissions( 排放 ) more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007window.So what’s the soluti on( 解决方案 )?The team’s data only went up to 2007, but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics thatserve more than one function, such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing. They foundthat more on-demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%.32.What does the author think of new devices?A.They are environment-friendly.B.They are no better than the old.C.They cost more to use at home.D.They go out of style quickly.33.Why did Babbitt’s team conduct the research?A.To reduce the cost of minerals.B.To test the life cycle of a product.C.To update consumers on new technology.D.To find out electricity consumption of the devices.34.Which of the following uses the least energy?A.The box-set TV.B.The tablet.C.The LCD TV.D.The desktop computer.35.What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices?A.Stop using them.B.Take them apart.C.Upgrade them.D.Recycle them.第二节 ( 共 5 小题 ; 每小题 2 分 , 满分 10 分 )(2017 课标全国Ⅲ )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。

The realization that my daughters were playing in Nancy's house, just one-half block away, paralyzed（麻痹）my legs, making me unable to move when I neared the end of our driveway. Dense, black smoke was rising from behind the Sycamore Maple trees on the other side of the street and was enveloping three houses, making them barely visible. Nancy's house was one of them.I tried to call out for my daughters hoping to see them run safely to my arms, but my voice was also stuck --- stuck in my throat with no intention of coming out. There I stood, helpless, paralyzed and silenced by fear, unable to protect the two little girls I loved more than even I had realized.Although trapped in a body that couldn't move or speak, I could still hear. I could hear other mothers anxiously calling their children. I could hear a frightening silence that covered the neighborhood instead of the usual happy voices of children. And, finally, I could hear the alarm of the fire engine. As the alarm announced, "We're on our way," it instantly dissolved the crazy glue that had held my feet to the cement and it unlocked the soundproof box that had silenced my voice. I was free to make sure my daughters were safe.As I continued down the driveway, two little girls, my two little girls, ran toward me from across the street. They had come home to tell me about the fire in the garage next to Nancy's house. Not only did my feet andvoice work now, but my eyes were also in good working order and had no trouble producing tears.24. Why was the author stuck to her driveway?A. She was too tired to move her legs.B. Thick black smoke blocked her view.C. The cement on the driveway was still wet.D. The fear for her daughters' safety struck her.25. What made the author able to move and speak again?A. Shouting from other anxious mothers.B. Strange silence in the neighborhood.C. The alarm of the coming fire engine.D. The courage to protect her daughters.26. What does the author suggest at the end of the story?A. She burst into tears of relief and happiness.B. She was really thankful to see her girls saved.C. She was too excited to believe what she saw.D. She overcame her fear and fully recovered,27. What is the best title for the text?A. Love in FireB. The Power of FearC. A Narrow EscapeD. The Price of FearCMOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) are free, but without tutoring, and are open to anyone, anywhere in the world. The courses are flexible – normally three to five hours of study a week – done at any time, short (5 to 10 weeks) and video-rich. They are also heavily dependent on crowd sourcing: you can discuss a course with fellow students through online forums(论坛), discussion boards and peer review. Students don't have to finish the courses, pass assessments or do assignments, but, if they do, they get a certificate of participation.The Open University launched Future Learn, the UK's answer to US platforms such as Coursera, EdX and Udacity, which have been offering MOOCs from top US universities for the past two years. The response has been incredible, with more than three million people registering worldwide. Meanwhile, in 2012, Edinburgh University became the first non-US institution to join Coursera's partnership, including 13 universities. “We already run 50 online master's degrees, so this was a logical expansion,” says Professor Jeff Haywood, Edinburgh's vice-president. “It's an investment in teaching methods research. How am I going to teach introductory philosophy to 100,000 people? That's what I call educational R&D.” He adds “If you look ahead 10 years, you'd expect all students graduating to have taken some online courses, so you've got to research that. Our MOOCs are no more in competition with our degrees than a lifelong learning course because they don't carry credits.”Cooperation is key, Haywood stresses. It is far better to offer 20-30 courses in your own areas of expertise (专门技能) and let other institutions do likewise. Professor Mike Sharples, Future Learn's academic lead, goes further: “We've tied the elements available before into a package of courses offered by leading universities worldwide on a new software platform, with a new way of promoting it and also a new social-learning teaching method. You won't just receive an exam, but be able to discuss and mark each other's assignments.”Bath University, one of more than 20 universities working with Future Learn, launches its first course, Inside Cancer, next January, and regards MOOCs as a way of breaking down age barriers. "There's no reason why someone doing GCSEs should not look at our MOOCs and get quite a way through them, or someone at PhD level and beyond," says Professor Bernie Morley, expert for learning and teaching.28. MOOCs have these features EXCEPT that_______.A. MOOCs are free of charge for anyoneB. MOOCs can be adjusted according to people’s learning paceC. MOOCs provide teachers’ instructions if you have some difficultyD. MOOCs have a platform for learners to share their learning experience29. The response to Future Learn has been thought to be unbelievable because ______.A. all the courses on the platform are available to anyone in the worldB. Edinburgh University became the first non-US institution to join itC. the number of people registering in the platform is beyond expectationD. students can get a certification of participation without passing assessments30. What can be inferred from Professor Bernie Morley in the last paragraph?A. People with various learning levels will probably show interest in MOOCs.B. People at PhD level have already known everything about MOOCs.C. Inside Cancer will be the most popular course for someone doing GCSEs.D. MOOCs are not so competitive as lifelong learning courses due to credits.31. The passage mainly deals with _____.A. the various opinions on Future LearnB. the advantages of online teaching methodsC. the popularity of no-credit coursesD. the emergence of a new learning platformD“Heaven is where the police are English, the cooks are French, the mechanics are German, the lovers are Italian and everything is organized by the Swiss. Hell (地狱) is where the police are German, the cooks are English, the mechanics are French, the lovers are Swiss, and everything is organized by the Italians.”Obviously the national stereotypes (模式化的思想) in this old joke are generalizations (普遍化), but such stereotypes are often said to “exist for a reason”. Is there actually a sliver (裂片) of truth in them? Not likely, an international research team now says.“National and cultural stereotypes do play an important role in how people see themselv es and others, and being aware that these are not dependable is a useful thing,” said study author Robert McCrae of the National Institute on Aging. “These are in fact unfounded stereotypes. They don’t come from looking around you,” McCrae said.If nation al stereotypes aren’t rooted in real experiences, then where do they come from? One possibility is that they reflect national values, which may become known from historical events. For example, many historians have argued that the spirit of American individualism (个人主义) has its origins in the experiences of the pioneers on the Old West.Social scientists such as psychologist Richard Robins have given several other possible explanations for stereotypes and why they may be incorrect. Robins notes that some stereotypes may have been correct at one point in history and then remained unchanged while the culture changed.We may be “hard-wired”, to some degree, to keep incorrect stereotypes, since we are less likely to notice and remember information that is different from our stereotypes. Generally, according to Robins, when we meet people who are different from our stereotypes, we see them as unique individuals rather than typical national or cultural groups.32. The stereotype about Italians is ______.A. romantic but disorganizedB.friendly and good-temperedC. dreamy and impracticalD. strict but thoughtful33. According to social scientists, National stereotypes are not always correct because______.A. they are formed by individual historiansB. what was true in the past may not be true at the presentC. generalizations are made through personal experienceD. people tend to have false idea about other cultures34. According to the research team led by McCrae, national stereotypes are ______.A. interestingB. harmfulC. humorousD. unreliable35. The underlined word “hard-wired” in the last paragraph probably means______.A. forgetfulB. anxiousC. fixedD. helpless第二节：信息匹配（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。

So I try again and tug at the heartstrings.I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids aren’t even on...At this point the unwilling parent speaks up“Alright.Yes I’ll do it.”I’m secretly relieved because I know there’s real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many.The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule sends out emails and collects money for end-of-season gifts.Somewhere along the way the same parent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team.The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season.Handing out sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal.Still most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of relief when the season comes to a close.That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming back for more Connecting to the community as you freely give your time money skills or services provides a real joy.Volunteering just feels so good.In that sense I’m pretty sure volunteering is more of a selfish act than I’d freely like to admit.However if others benefit in the process and I get some reward too does it really matter where my motivation lies24.What can we infer about the parent from her reply in paragraph1A.She knows little about the club.B.She isn’t good at sports.C.She just doesn’t want to volunteer.D.She’s unable to meet her schedule.25.What does the underlined phrase“tug at the heartstrings”in paragraph2meanA.Encourage teamwork.B.Appeal to feelings.C.Promote good deeds.D.Provide advice.26.What can we learn about the parent from paragraph3A.She gets interested in lacrosse.B.She is proud of her kids.C.She’ll work for another season.D.She becomes a good helper.27.Why does the author like doing volunteer workA.It gives her a sense of duty.B.It makes her very happy.C.It enables her to work hard.D.It brings her material rewards.CMarian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beach’s Bar Louie counter by herself quietly reading her e-book as she waits for her salad.What is she reading None of your business Lunch is Bechtel’s“me”time.And like more Americans she’s not alone.A new report found46percent of meals are eaten alone in America.More than half53percent have breakfast alone and nearly half46percent have lunch by themselves.Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore74percent according to statistics from the report.“I prefer to go out and be out.Alone but together you know”Bechtel said looking up from her book.Bechtel who works in downtown West Palm Beach has lunch with coworkers sometimes but like many of us too often works through lunch at her desk.A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized.“Today I just wanted some time to myself”she said.Just two seats over Andrew Mazoleny a local videographer is finishing his lunch at the bar.He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he’s on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction.“I reflect on how my day’s gone and think about the rest of the week”he said.“It’s a chance for self-reflection.You return to work recharged and with a plan.”That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone.There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one but those days are over.Now we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table.“It doesn’t feel as alone as it may have before all the advances in technology”said Laurie Demeritt whose company provided the statistics for the report.28.What are the statistics in paragraph2aboutA.Food variety.B.Eating habits.C.Table manners.D.Restaurant service.29.Why does Bechtel prefer to go out for lunchA.To meet with her coworkers.B.To catch up with her work.C.To have some time on her own.D.To collect data for her report.30.What do we know about MazolenyA.He makes videos for the bar.B.He’s fond of the food at the bar.C.He interviews customers at the bar.D.He’s familiar with the barkeeper.31.What is the text mainly aboutA.The trend of having meals alone.B.The importance of self-reflection.C.The stress from working overtime.D.The advantage of wireless technology.DBacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts.The microorganisms from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week.How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids.But not just any kids.It is depending on NASA HUNCH high school classrooms like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport New York.HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers.For the past two years Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity and they think they’re close to a solution.“We don’t give the students any breaks.They have to do it just like NASA engineers”says Florence Gold a project manager.“There are no tests”Gordon says.“There is no graded homework.There almost are no grades other than‘Are you working towards your goal’Basically it’s ‘I’ve got to produce this product and then at the end of the year present it to NASA.’Engineers come and really do an in-person review and...it’s not a very nice thing at times.It’s a hard business review of your product.”Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact on college admissions and practical life skills.“These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back.I don’t teach.”And that annoying bacteria Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem readying a workable solution to test in space.32.What do we know about the bacteria in the International Space StationA.They are hard to get rid of.B.They lead to air pollution.C.They appear in different forms.D.They damage the instruments.33.What is the purpose of the HUNCH programA.To strengthen teacher-student relationships.B.To sharpen students’communication skills.C.To allow students to experience zero gravity.D.To link space technology with school education.34.What do the NASA engineers do for the students in the programA.Check their product.B.Guide project designs.C.Adjust work schedules.D.Grade their homework.35.What is the best title for the textA.NASA The Home of AstronautsB.Space The Final Homework FrontierC.Nature An Outdoor ClassroomD.HUNCH A College Admission Reform5210Imagine a child standing on a diving board four feet high and asking himself the question“Should I jump”This is what motivation or the lack of it can do. Motivation and goal setting are the two sides of same coin.36Like the child on the diving board you will stay undecided.37More than that how should you stay motivated to achieve the goal First you need to evaluate yourself your values your strengths your weaknesses your achievements your desires etc.Only then should you set your goals.You also need to judge the quality and depth of your motivation.This is quite important because it is directly related to your commitment.There are times when your heart is not in your work.38So slow down and think what you really want to do at that moment.Clarity of thoughts can help you move forward.Another way of setting realistic goals is to analyze your short and long term objectives keeping in mind your beliefs values and strengths.Remember that goals are flexible.39They also need to be measurable.You must keep these points in mind while setting your goals.Your personal circumstances are equally important.For example you may want to be a pilot but can’t become one because your eyesight is not good enough.40 You should reassess your goals and motivate yourself to set a fresh goal.You will surely need to overcome some difficulties some planned but most unplanned.You cannot overcome them without ample motivation.Make sure that you plan for these difficulties at the time of setting your goals.A.This can affect your work.B.So how should you motivate yourselfC.However this should not discourage you.D.So why should we try to set specific goalsE.They can change according to circumstances.F.Motivation is what you need most to do a good job.G.Without motivation you can neither set a goal nor reach it.第三部分语言知识运用(共两节,满分45分)20 1.530A B C DIt’s about250miles from the hills of west-central Iowa to Ehlers home in Minnesota.During the

The microorganisms（微生物）from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem? It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It depending on NASA HUNCH high school class, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport, New York.HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution（解决方案）. “We don’t give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers,” says FlorenceGold, a project manager.“There are no tests,” Gordon says. “There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than 'Are you working towards your goal?' Basically, it’s 'I’ve got to produce this product and then, at the end of year, present it to NASA.' Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and…it’s not a very nice thing at time. It’s a hard business review of your product.”Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact（影响）on college admissions and practical life skills. “These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back.I don’t teach.” And that annoying bacteria? Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.32.What do we know about the bacteria in the International Space Station?A.
