C 第二部分　阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)‎ 第一节　(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30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 Pride and Prejudice for the Modern Woman Let us imagine how Pride and Prejudice，Jane Austen's most famous work, might be updated, 200 years on. ‎ Austen's popularity is rooted in her intelligence. But today she would certainly have had a very different life, as would her characters. Here's my own suggestion...‎ It is a truth finally and universally acknowledged that a single woman with brains deserves to have equal opportunities to men, however disadvantaged she may feel by sexism. ‎ ‎“My dear husband，”said his hopeful wife one day，“have you heard that the local store, standing empty for so long，is taken over by a bright young businesswoman？”‎ Her dull and indifferent(漠不关心的) husband replied that he had not. ‎ ‎“But it is, it is，” she replied excitedly. ‎ Mr. DullHusband made no reply. ‎ ‎“Don't you want to know her plans？” she cried with some impatience. ‎ 21‎ ‎“Well，clearly you think it matters to your silly little head...so I'd better listen. ”‎ ‎“Well, my dear, the rumour(传言) is that she has already set up a string of successful businesses in northern England, though how a woman can know anything about that is beyond me. She will move in herself next month. ”‎ ‎“What is her name？”‎ ‎“Bingley. ”‎ ‎“Is she married or single？”‎ ‎“What a question! And none of your business. But her coming will be a fine thing for our five boys. ”‎ ‎“How so? How can it possibly affect them？”‎ ‎“My dear love: those lazy boys need something to wake them up. There are bound to be jobs going. ”‎ ‎“Is that her point in settling here? Surely as a woman she has simply taken a fancy to the place. ”‎ ‎“Nonsense, my love, how little you've noticed the world has changed. She's got a firstrate degree and some sort of business qualification, I'm told. She surely needs one of our boys! Perhaps you might give her a call. ”‎ ‎“Me? No. Perhaps you can take an interest. You still have your looks, after all. She may even offer you a job. ”‎ ‎“Oh, that's not likely. These new chances belong to the younger generation. But now you mention it, I think I'll go along all the same. ”‎ And Mrs. Bennet went along. That was 10 years ago. She is now managing director of a FTSElisted company. ‎ ‎...It would remain the case, of course, that Mrs. Bennet would be one of very few women on the company board, that her salary would be lower than her male colleagues, her bonus of a more “female” dimension and her lifespan (年限)among the city's business leaders shorter than theirs. Still, she'd no doubt have enjoyed Davos—and might even have hobnobbed (攀谈) with influential figures. ‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文为一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过《傲慢与偏见》这部著作，引出性别歧视依然存在这一社会话题。‎ ‎21．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?‎ A．Austen was born 200 years ago. ‎ B．Austen rewrote Pride and Prejudice. ‎ 21‎ C．Austen's success lies in her wisdom. ‎ D．Austen's updated work gains popularity. ‎ 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第二段第一句可知，《傲慢与偏见》的作者简·奥斯汀的成功源于她的智慧，故答案选C。‎ ‎22．The underlined part in the passage suggests that Mrs. Bennet ________. ‎ A．had mixed feelings of admiration and surprise about Bingley　‎ B．felt kind of worried and doubtful about Bingley C．was extremely anxious to meet Bingley D．had a great curiosity about Bingley 解析：选A　推理判断题。该句字面意思为“一个女人怎么能知道关于生意的事，这超出了我的理解。”由此推断，她对Bingley(当地一家商店的年轻女老板)的成就感到既羡慕又惊讶。‎ ‎23．In the eyes of Mrs. Bennet，Bingley surely needed one of their boys to ________. ‎ A．get married to B．work for her C．help her move in D．take over her store 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据倒数第五段中的“She surely needs one of our boys！”可知，在Bennet夫人的眼中，她认为Bingley肯定需要雇用他们家的一个男孩子来为其工作。‎ ‎24．What does the writer intend to tell us?‎ A．Women with brains can also be as successful as men. ‎ B．Women have to pay a high price for success. ‎ C．A judgment must be made free from prejudice. ‎ D．Sex discrimination still exists nowadays. ‎ 解析：选D　观点态度题。根据文章最后一段可知，当然，这种事依然存在，Bennet夫人是公司领导层中屈指可数的女性之一，她的薪水和奖金比男性同事少，作为城市商业领袖的年限也会比男同事短。可推断出，作者打算告诉读者，性别歧视在今天依然存在。‎ B Scientists in London are working to develop a wheelchair that can be moved simply by looking in the direction in which the user wishes to travel. ‎ Most paralyzed (瘫痪的) people can still move their eyes because they are directly connected to the brain. Some existing technologies already allow severely disabled people to stare at arrows (箭头) on a computer and direct the movement of a wheelchair. But there are problems with that system, including a delay between the movement of the eyes and the wheelchair. ‎ 21‎ ‎“Current tracking software often uses a screenbased system where you have a screen open and you look at locations on the screen. The problem with that is that it diverts (转移) the user's attention from the outside world and therefore there's more risk of not noticing other things like stones in the way，”said Kirubin Pillay, a PhD student at Imperial College London. ‎ A team led by Aldo Faisal at Imperial College London has developed a software that allows users to move the chair just by looking in the direction they want to take. ‎ ‎“Our eyes are not only a window into our soul. They're also a window to our intentions. So if we want to go somewhere, we will look there in a specific manner. We can build a computer system that can decode (解码) our eye movements，and so we observe eye movements with an eye tracker, and the computer interprets these commands and drives the wheelchair accordingly，”said Fasial. ‎ Two cameras trained on the eyes observe their movements and can determine whether a patient is merely looking around or wants to move in a certain direction. ‎ Visual information detected by cameras is analyzed by algorithms(计算程序)and then translated into instructions for movement that's almost instantaneous(瞬间的)．‎ The camerabased system costs only about $85 because most of the work is done by the algorithms. No expensive hardware is needed. The London team hopes to make the system commercially available within three years. ‎ ‎【解题导语】　伦敦的科学家们正在研发一种轮椅，通过安装的镜头来观察眼睛的运动，使用者只需要用眼睛看向想要去的方向，轮椅便会自动前进。‎ ‎25．One of the current tracking software's problems is________. ‎ A．there is a mistake in it B．there is a delay between the movement of the eyes and the wheelchair C．it costs much and few people can afford it D．it can't follow the user's wish exactly 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“But there are problems with that system, including a delay between the movement of the eyes and the wheelchair. ”可知B项正确。‎ ‎26．The new wheelchair being developed will ________. ‎ A．use a screenbased system to let the user move B．avoid the risks of being blocked in the way 21‎ C．move directly in the direction the user wants to go D．determine the user's moving direction 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的“...move the chair just by looking in the direction they want to take. ”可知C项正确。‎ ‎27．What can we infer from the text?‎ A．The price of the new wheelchair will not be very high. ‎ B．The new wheelchair can move very fast. ‎ C．People can buy the new wheelchair in the market now. ‎ D．The new wheelchair is mostly conducted by hardware. ‎ 解析：选A　推理判断题。根据最后一段可知A项正确。‎ ‎28．The author of the text aims to ________. ‎ A．stress the importance of a new wheelchair B．make the new wheelchair widely used C．explain the process of developing a wheelchair D．introduce a system developed by scientists 解析：选D　写作意图题。由文章内容可知，作者是在讲述科学家们发明的一种新系统，故D项正确。‎ C The voice in your head is a lie. What you hear when you open your mouth is distinctly less beautiful than what everyone around you hears. ‎ Your voice emanates from the lower portion of your throat, as expelled air from the lungs passes across your vocal chords (声韧带)，which vibrate (振动) to produce sound. This sound is then made louder by your voice box, changed into words by your tongue and lips, and spread through the surrounding atmosphere until it enters your listener's ear canal to stimulate their eardrums (鼓膜) and structures within the inner ear—which then convert the analog waveform (模拟波形) to electrical impulses that the brain can understand. ‎ However，the inner ear doesn't just pick up sound from external sources. Vibrations coming from within your body can activate these auditory (听觉的) structures as well. And when you speak，the rapid fluttering of your vocal chords actually causes your entire braincase to vibrate. “When you speak，the vocal folds in your throat vibrate, which causes your skin, skull and oral cavities to also vibrate, and we perceive this as sound，” Ben Hornsby, a professor of audiology at Vanderbilt University, said. ‎ 21‎ But sound doesn't travel through bone nearly as easily as it does through air. This effect is heightened by the fact that you really can't hear your own voice directly, because your ears are positioned behind your mouth, and the sounds coming out of your mouth must first bounce off objects and back into your ears. This, too, causes the waveform to lose energy as well as frequency and pitch, resulting in you hearing a distorted, lower tone than what people hear directly from out of your mouth. ‎ ‎“You hear your voice in stereo，” Michael Kelly said，“while other people just hear it in mono (单声道)．” That's why you may think you sound like James Earl Jones in your head, but end up sounding like Steve Urkel on tape. ‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文主要说明了为什么你的声音和你听到的不一样。‎ ‎29．What is the main idea of the text?‎ A．Why your voice sounds different inside your head. ‎ B．The difference between the sound you hear and others hear. ‎ C．How people produce a voice before they can hear it. ‎ D．How your voice spreads in the air and in your head. ‎ 解析：选A　主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章讲的是人们的声音和他们自己听到的不一样，所以选A。‎ ‎30．What is the meaning of the phrase “emanates from” in the second paragraph?‎ A．Comes from. B．Benefits from. ‎ C．Differs from. D．Suffers from. ‎ 解析：选A　词义猜测题。根据文章第二段内容可知，声音是从喉咙下部发出的，所以选A。‎ ‎31．According to Ben Hornsby, how is sound formed?‎ A．It is formed by the sound produced only by the throat. ‎ B．It is the result of the whole braincase vibrating. ‎ C．It is from the quick movement of your vocal chords. ‎ D．It is received by the inner ear from the outside world. ‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“And when you speak, the rapid fluttering of your vocal...entire braincase to vibrate. ”可知，Ben Hornsby所说的话是对这句话的进一步解释说明，所以选B。‎ ‎32．Why cannot you hear your voice right away?‎ A．The waveform has lost energy, frequency and pitch. ‎ B．The sound travels through bone less easily than it does through air. ‎ C．The sound bounces off before entering your ears. ‎ 21‎ D．Your eardrum is affected by the feedback of the waveform. ‎ 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的“This effect is heightened...can't hear your own voice directly，because your ears are...”可知，你自己发出的声音经过传导物体的传播之后能量减弱，频率和音高都发生了变化，所以选C。‎ D I found the imagination of becoming a grandmother somewhat discouraging. I was younger than I thought a grandmother should be when I got the news that I was going to become one myself. I admitted，it was not a role that I was emotionally ready to accept. I had been a young mother, and had certainly hoped my daughter would not face that same challenge. I remarried when she was a teenager, and then had two more children. On getting the news that she was expecting, I remembered thinking “What do I know about being a grandmother? —I haven't even finished raising my own kids yet！” I didn't like to be unprepared，so I read a few books about grandparenting. That gave me a little help, but I was still uncertain. I thought about other grandmothers I knew, and got a few ideas I liked and a few more that I didn't. But I couldn't quite figure out what kind of grandmother I wanted to be. Then I thought about my own grandmother, Granny, as she's known by most people, and I knew I had the answer. ‎ I didn't realize it until that moment, but my own grandmother was the example for the kind of grandmother I wanted to be. I am fortunate that I got to spend a lot of time with my grandparents when I was a little kid. Here's what I learned from my Granny. ‎ Grandmothers always have a cookie jar. For my entire life, Granny always had a cookie jar full of cookies. When I was a little tiny girl, just at eye level with the counter, Granny would get the cookie jar down for me. When I was a little older I learned how to pull the chair over so I could reach. As I got taller, if I really stretched, I could reach the cookie jar with my finger tips and move it close enough to get it down off the counter to find out what kind of treat was inside. Always the first thing I did when I went to Granny's house was to check the cookie jar, and there were always cookies in it. Many years later, I'll drive my own children to Granny's house and the first thing is to get us all a cookie. ‎ So grandmothers must have a cookie jar，and on my granddaughter's first Christmas，my daughter bought me my own cookie jar. She said when they came to see me, her daughter would find the treat the way she did and I did. ‎ 21‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文通过“我”生活中的经历，让“我”感受到了亲人的温暖。‎ ‎33．The writer thought it was a little discouraging to be a grandmother because ________. ‎ A．she was not old enough to be one B．she was not emotionally ready to be one C．she thought her daughter was too young to be a mother D．grandmother should be older than she was 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“I admitted，it was not a role that I was emotionally ready to accept. ”可知，作者不情愿成为外祖母。‎ ‎34．The underlined phrase “that same challenge” in the first paragraph refers to “________”．‎ A．taking care of a grandchild B．taking care of a baby C．being a young grandmother D．being a young mother 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I had been a young mother, and had certainly hoped my daughter would not face that same challenge. ”可知，作者曾经是一个年轻的妈妈，希望她的女儿不要面对相同的挑战，因此这个挑战就是当一个年轻的妈妈。‎ ‎35．What kind of grandmother did the writer want to be?‎ A．One who has a jar filled with many kinds of cookies for children and herself. ‎ B．One who grows up with her grandmother's cookie jar with all kinds of cookies. ‎ C．One who is like her own grandmother with a cookie jar to treat her grandchildren. ‎ D．One who always makes different kinds of cookies to treat her grandchildren. ‎ 解析：选C　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“...my own grandmother was the example for the kind of grandmother I wanted to be. ”和第三段第二句“For my entire life, Granny always had a cookie jar full of cookies. ”可知，作者想要成为像外婆一样的人，有放饼干的罐子给孩子们饼干吃。C项正确。‎ 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。‎ 21‎ How Can I Fight Laziness?‎ Lazy people will never amount to anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind. ‎ ‎ 36 Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation once they arrive home. Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest，you can fight laziness throughout the day. ‎ Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task. Others take a more proactive approach, viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone. 37 ‎ Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations(诱惑) that surround them. A television in the living room may provide entertainment, but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness. 38 Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy, such as a good dinner or a film. ‎ Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home. Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately. 39 Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal. Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task. It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people. ‎ ‎ 40 Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle，thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits. ‎ A．To fight family laziness, set an example. ‎ B．Knowing how to fight laziness is important. ‎ C．One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep. ‎ D．Finally，taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness. ‎ E．With strong determination, you will be able to achieve your goal. ‎ F．Laziness sets in when you no longer feel in charge of your own life. ‎ G．Create a reward system for yourself, just as parents do for a child. ‎ ‎【解题导语】　懒惰的人不可能做成什么事情，但是思维的一些变化可以让你消灭懒惰。‎ ‎36．解析：选C　根据下文的“Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. ”可知，对抗懒惰的一个方法就是有足够的睡眠。答案是C。‎ 21‎ ‎37．解析：选E　根据上文的“Others take a more proactive approach，viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone. ”可知，有了强大的决心，你就可以实现你的目标。‎ ‎38．解析：选G　根据下文的“Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy, such as a good dinner or a film. ”可知，为自己设定一套奖励体系，就像父母为孩子做的那样。‎ ‎39．解析：选A　根据下文的“Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal...the home may eventually follow your example”可知，为了消除家庭的懒惰，可以树立一个榜样。答案是A。‎ ‎40．解析：选D　根据下文“Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle”可知，最后定期锻炼可以帮你消灭懒惰。答案是D。‎ 第三部分　语言知识运用(共两节，满分45分)‎ 第一节　(共20小题；每小题1. 5分，满分30分)‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ It was over 20 years ago. I was holding my baby son in my arms 41 my other two children played under a big 42 in the front yard of an old house. The house was also a local food bank and I was 43 my children while my 44 went in. I had been unemployed for a long time and we were out of food. I tried to laugh as my children 45 each other around the tree, but my heart was too heavy. 46 hung around me like a cloud. All I could feel was fear. 47 my wife came out holding a large bag of 48 and we smiled at each other. Thanks to the 49 of others our children would not go 50 that night. ‎ Then, yesterday, I found myself outside the doors of 51 food bank, and I had some extra money in my wallet and a longing to 52 this gift with others. I went to the local 53 store and bought what I could with what I had. Then I carried in the bags of food to help restock the food bank's sparse (稀疏的)shelves. The people there 54 me several times, but I felt a little 55 as I accepted their gratitude. I was after all, only completing a circle of kindness that had begun over twenty years ago. ‎ This world is full of circles of love. Every smile we share，thing we 56 ， and act of kindness we do flows out from us to touch others. Then it 57 on, going from heart to heart and soul to soul until it circles the world and 58 to us again.
