第二部分阅读理解

第一节

【语篇导读】本文为应用文。文章主要介绍了充满了古老世界吸引力的欧洲小镇。

Manarola中“You can drive to Manarola,but you’ll have to park just outside the town and then take a shuttle bus or walk.”可知,你可以开车去Manarola,但你必须将车停在小镇外,然后坐往返巴士或步行。

Marsaxlokk中提到的“如今,这个像图画似的城镇是地中海岛上的主要鱼类

供应地。这儿没有现代化的建筑来破坏它的吸引力”。由此可知,这个地方吸引人之处是鱼和古老建筑。

Manarola中的“This attractive fishing town is famous for its unbelievable

wine,and the paintings.”以及Portmagee中的“This postcard-perfect seaside fishing town has a row of brightly coloured buildings along with a rich and colorful history.”可知,两者的共同之处是海边渔村。分析这两处可知Manarola和Portmagee对于喜欢在古老的沿海渔村享受的游客来说是个不错的选择。

“At the Bridge Bar,you’ll find live music many nights of the week along with nice food and a fine glass of beer.”可知,如果游客想品尝美食,就要去Portmagee。

【语篇导读】龙卷风袭来,13岁的Albert从容应对,保护了自己和妹妹。

“At first I thought nothing of it”可知,作者看到乌云密布起初并没有在意。

“I was sure the power was going to go out any second”可知,他拿手电筒的目的是为停电做好准备。

“I had to try to get my sister down the stairs to the basement in a matter of minutes”可知,作者和妹妹快速地进入地下室,躲过了危险。

,爸爸给Albert打电话让他们赶快躲进地下室,由此判断爸爸当时很“担心”。

【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Nick发现火情后及时报警,挽救了邻居一家人性命的感人故事。

“As he looked at his neighbor’s house,he found that it was on fire.”可知,Nick和Penny是邻居。

“Firefighters got the call at about 7:05 am.”可知,火灾发生的时间大约是在早上7点钟。

“‘When we arrived with our fire trucks,there were heavy flames outside on the house,’Jerry said.”可知,Jerry是一名消防队员。

“She said the fire could have been caused by an electrical problem.‘We’ve been having problems with mice,so that we could have had something to do with it,’she added.”可知,Penny认为火灾可能与老鼠有关。

【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。美国的安克雷奇市星期五发生强烈地震,使公共建筑、房屋和道路严重受损,目前正在恢复中。

“The American city Anchorage is recovering from a powerful earthquake Friday that damaged public buildings,homes and roads.”可知,地震造成公共建筑、房屋和道路受损。

“The Glenn Highway was probably the road hit hardest by the earthquake.”和“Groups of workers are trying to rebuild areas where the quake left large holes in the road.”可知,工作人员正在努力修建道路上由于地震造成的洞以及其他受到破坏的地方,从而可以推断出,格伦高速公路交通缓慢是因为此高速公路受损严重。

“Earthquake experts say there is a 4 percent chance of another 7.0 earthquake or greater in the following week. ‘The chance is very small, but it’s not impossible,’”可知,专家保罗·卡鲁索认为随后还有可能发生地震,虽然地震概率很小,但也不是不可能,从而可以推断出,他认为还有可能再发生地震。

,从而推断出文章可能选自报纸。

第二节

【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何激励自己、保持动力、达成目标提出了几点建议。

37.G根据上文提到的“Motivation and goal setting are the two sides of the same coin.”以及下文提到的“Like the child on the diving board...”可知,G项可以承接上文。其中motivation和goal为原词复现。

38.B根据下文提到的“More than that,how should you stay motivated to achieve the goal?”可知,B项“So how should you motivate yourself?”可承接上下文。

39.A根据上文提到的“There are times when your heart is not in your work.”可知,A项“This can affect your work.”是上文的结果。

40.E根据上文提到的“Remember that goals are flexible.”可知,E项“They can change according to circumstances.”是对上文的进一步说明。

41.C上文提到“个人情况同等重要”,并以因视力差不能达成当飞行员的目标为例子,再结合下文的“你应该重新评估你的目标,并激励自己去设定一个新的目标”可知,C项和上文构成转折关系,同时起到引起下文的作用。

第三部分英语知识运用

第一节

【语篇导读】哈罗德是一家语言学校的老师,他和学生们乘坐巴士前往寄宿家庭的途中,巴士司机心脏病突发,车辆失控。在这紧急关头,还未获得驾照的哈罗德迅速做出反应,成功控制了巴士,挽救了学生们的生命,避免了一场严重事故的发生。

,再根据第二段描述的当时的场景可知,司机趴倒在方向盘上,失去了知觉,无法再操控巴士了,因此这位英语老师即后面提到的哈罗德控制了巴士。take control of sth“控制某物”。

,因此他们乘坐巴士去与他们的寄宿家庭见面。meet在句中表示“初次与人结识;见面”。

“A young English teacher saved the lives of 30 students...”以及下文的信息可知,这位英语老师正是哈罗德。

,根据这一情景可知speaking to符合语境。当时他正和学生们在车上交谈。

,因此C项符合句意。

30个学生的性命,因此可判断他成功控制了已失控的巴士。manage to do sth意为“设法做成某事”。

,避免了更糟糕的局面,警察对此行为应当是赞扬的,因此praised 符合语境。

,需要的是快速反应,因此reacted符合语境。

,因此选项B符合语境。

,老师和学生对这位巴士司机评价很好。因此可推断,他经常和这个学校合作。

,作为老师,哈罗德应当是感到高兴的,所以happy符合语境。

,还是遇难了。本题所在的句子的后半句表达了哈罗德的愿望,希望这位司机能活下来就好了。因此survive符合语境。

thanking him...可知学校奖励了哈罗德,四个选项中只有trip符合语境。

also可知,驾校也对哈罗德的英勇行为给予了奖励,因此free符合语境。

第二节

【语篇导读】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了中国的民间舞蹈——秧歌。

57.created考查非谓语动词。create和dance有逻辑上的动宾关系,所以用动词-ed形式做定语。

58.hundreds考查数词。表示不确定的数目,hundred后要加s。hundreds of “几百;数百”。

59.as考查固定搭配。take...as...“把……看作是……”。

60.celebrations考查名词复数。celebration是可数名词,根据前面的some可知,该词要用复数形式。

61.is performed考查语态。perform和music有动宾关系,时态是一般现在时,所以填is performed。

62.colorful考查形容词。修饰名词要用形容词形式。

63.an考查冠词。pace是单数可数名词,表示泛指,exaggerated是以元音音素开头的单词,所以填an。

64.their考查代词。修饰mood和life要用形容词性的物主代词。

65.appreciating考查非谓语动词。crowd和appreciate有逻辑上的主谓关系,所以用动词-ing形式做

伴随状语。

66.but考查连词。根据语意可知,上下文是转折关系,所以填but。

第二节概要写作

Alexis helped Sue into the car,and then applied a piece of cloth to Sue’s injured leg.Suddenly she heard her father shout loudly.He had been knocked to the ground.Alexis took hold of a hammer from the car and ran to where her father lay on his back.She beat the deer’s head and neck,but the blows didn’t scare it away.“I am losing faith,” she said.“A couple more strikes,Alexis,” said her father.“You can do it.”Turning the hammer around,Alexis closed her eyes and beat the deer’s neck with all her strength.When she opened her eyes,the deer was running away.Alexis got into the car and sped toward the nearest hospital.

After Sue was treated,she tearfully thanked her rescuers.“You expect a teenager girl to make a phone call for help,” she said,“not to beat up a deer.” Alexis’ father was also proud of his daughter,for she was so brave.
