There was the famous London Bridge and St. Paul’s Cathedral, and palaces and markets and long streets full of shops. Then, too, there were the daily crowds where could be seen people from all over the world. Knights, scholars and the highwayman (拦路强盗）or thieves, who had been infamous for their clever robberies, passed by each other. Here, also, were noblemen dressed in gold, from Italy and Spain and France; slaves from Spanish America, sea captains and ministers, soldiers and servants—all held by chances or interests within the gray walls which circled London, and whose gates gave welcome to as strange a crowd as could be found in the world. Into this curious crowd came Shakespeare, quick to see and eager to learn. And before long all these strange sights were as familiar to him as the faces of his own town’s residents. Each one told its story to him so plainly that, as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods, so now he learned men and men’s interests that make up the great world. And he learned these lessons so well that when he came to write his plays, he made such use of them as no writer ever made before or since; for it is the use of this knowledge of the world, combined with his own genius, that makes Shakespeare the greatest dramatist that has ever lived. 4. What was London like in Shakespeare’s eyes when he first went there? A. Dirty and small. B. Strange and interesting. C. Infamous and terrible. D. Familiar and modern. 5. Which of the following best describes Shakespeare? A. Shakespeare got inspiration to write from his hometown, London. B. Shakespeare was eager to make friends with the noblemen in London. C. Shakespeare was good at observing and learning from the daily life. D. Shakespeare became the greatest dramatist owing to his own genius. 6. What does the word “one” in paragraph 5 refer to? A. Crowd. B. Resident. C. Face. D. Sight. 7. The passage probably comes from______. A. a poster B. a textbook C. an advertisement D. an announcement 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【分析】 本文是一篇名人轶事。文章讲述了文学大师莎士比亚年轻时去到伦敦第一天时遇到 有趣的 事情。 【4 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的 a very interesting place 和第五段中的 all these strange sights 可 知，在 Shakespeare 的眼中，伦敦是一个有趣而陌生的城市。故选 B。 【5 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段可知，Shakespeare 来到伦敦不久之后，通过观察和学习了解了伦 敦，并适应了那里的生活，由此可推断出，Shakespeare 擅长观察日常生活并从中学习。故 选 C。 【6 题详解】 词义猜测题。画线词后的 as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods 意思为“正 如他以前所学到的田野和树林的秘密那样”，根据这句话可知，one 指的是“像田野和树林一 样的景象”。故选 D。 【7 题详解】 推理判断题。本文主要讲述了莎士比亚到伦敦的经历，所以这篇文章最有可能出现在一本教 材中。故选 B。 【点睛】本文是人物故事类阅读理解。做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做 题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案。推理 判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定 要做到有理有据。例如小题 2 考查如何描述莎士比亚，A、B、D 三项与文章的事实不相符 合，C 选择项是由文章中事实推断出答案。 C Standing desks have become common across Silicon Valley, offering health benefits to those willing to work on their feet. However, due to their high price, they have failed to catch on until now. Recently, Ikea has brought out Bekant convertible（可变换的） standing desk that can become a normal desk at the touch of a button. The $500 adjustable desk can transform from a standard desk 的 to a standing one, and Ikea hopes it could make the standing desk mainstream. Experts say that changing from a seated to a standing desk can improve productivity. Similar desks have become a common sight at tech firms such as Google, where some employees have even installed treadmill (跑步机) and bicycle desks. The desk is not the first “convertible” on the market. As early as 2013, Stir Kinect brought out an adjustable desk. The $3,890 Stir Kinect desk has a motor to raise and lower itself, changing it into a standing desk or a traditional desk. The desk can even be programmed to move up and down slightly, making it appear to take a gentle breath to remind the user to change their positions. To move between sitting and standing positions, owners simply double tap on the screen. The desk can learn the user’s preferences over time and suggest the best seating position. The Stir Kinect desk was created by a team of ex-Apple and Disney engineers. It has a built-in touch screen to control and track movement, and can tell users exactly how many calories they burn by standing during their working day. It also has devices containing power points and USB ports for charging phones, to keep cables hidden. “ Ikea’s height-adjustable desk is great for opening up the lower end of the market, ’’ said JP Labrosse, founder and CEO of Stir. 8. What is the text mainly about? A. Ikea has brought out an adjustable standing desk. B. Silicon Valley offered health benefits to officials. C. Google formed their tech firms to design bicycle desks. D. The Stir Kinect desk will become mainstream in the market. 9. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text? A. Before Bekant desk, similar adjustable desks have been widely used. B. The seated desks will take the place of the standing desks in the future. C. Compared to the Stir Kinect desk, the Bekant desk is much cheaper. D. The adjustable desks were designed by the Apple and Disney Company. 10. The Stir Kinect desk______. A. can breathe in and breathe out by pressing the button once B. can charge phones by using a device containing power point C. can tell you how many calories you need for a walk D. can advise you to do more exercise at a proper time 11. What can we infer from the last sentence given by JP Labrosse? A. Ikea’s adjustable desk will be popular with average people. B. Ikea will have to sell furniture at a lower price in the future. C. This height adjustable table can only be found in Ikea. D. It is not necessary for Ikea to open up the market at all. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. A 【解析】 试题分析：本文是一篇新闻报道。站立式办公桌在美国硅谷已经比较常见，宜家近日推出了 一款名为 BEKANT 的可调节的站立式办公桌，这种桌子对愿意站立式工作的人健康有益。 【8 题详解】 A 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段看出：站立式办公桌在美国硅谷已经比较常见，对愿意站立 式工作的人健康有益。宜家近日推出了一款名为 BEKANT 的可调节的站立式办公桌，使用者 只需按一下按钮便可将其从普通高度调节至站立式高度。宜家希望这款办公桌占领市场，成 为主流，故选 A。 【9 题详解】 C 推理判断题。根据文章第一段知道 Bekant convertible standing desk 售价为$500；而第三段 中是 Stir Kinect desk 售价为$3,890，故选 C。 【10 题详解】 B 细节理解题。第四段中最后一句“It also has devices containing power points and USB ports for charging phones, to keep cables hidden.”意思是为 Stir Kinect 还设置了充电接口以及 USB 接口， 可用于手机充电，故选 B。 【11 题详解】 A 细节理解题。这一句的意思是“宜家的可调节办公桌有助于打开低端市场，”所以选 A，即“宜 家的可调节办公桌在普通民众中将会受欢迎”A。 考点：新闻类短文阅读 D When John was growing up, other kids felt sorry for him. His parents always had him weeding the garden，carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers. But when John reached adulthood, he was better off than his childhood playmates. He had more job satisfaction, a better marriage and was healthier. Most of all, he was happier.Far happier. These are the findings of a 40­year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston. The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not. “Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence (能 力) and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society，”said George Vaillant, the psychologist (心理学家) who made the discovery. “And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them.” Vaillant's study followed these males in great detail. Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31 and 47. Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the men's mental­health scores with their boyhood ­activity scores. Points were awarded for part­time jobs, housework, effort in school，and ability to deal with problems. The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp．Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people，five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed. The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out. Working—at any age—is important.Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competence—the underpinnings (基础) of emotional health. They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this.Yet work isn't everything. As Tolstoy once said，“One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one's work.” 12. What do we know about John? A. He enjoyed his career and marriage. B. He had few childhood playmates. C. He received little love from his family. D. He was envied by others in his childhood. 13. Vaillant's words in Paragraph 2 serve as ________． A. a description of personal values and social values B. an analysis of how work was related to competence C. an example for parents' expectations of their children D. an explanation why some boys grew into happy men 14. Vaillant's team obtained their findings by ________． A. recording the boys' effort in school B. evaluating the men's mental health C. comparing different sets of scores D. measuring the men's problem solving ability 15. What does the underlined word “sharp” probably mean in Paragraph 4? A. Quick to react. B. Having a thin edge. C. Clear and definite. D. Sudden and rapid. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. C 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了研究表明，那些小时候工作过的人比那些没有工作过的人生 活得更快乐、更有成效。 【12 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段 He had more job satisfaction, a better marriage and was healthier.（他的 工作满意度更高，婚姻更美满，身体也更健康。）由此可知，约翰享受他的事业和婚姻，故 选 A。 【13 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段 “Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence (能力) and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society ， ”said George Vaillant, the psychologist (心理学家) who made the discovery.“And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them.”（发现这一现象的心理学家 Vaillant 说:“在家庭或社区工作的男 孩获得了能力，并开始觉得自己是社会中有价值的成员。”“因为他们对自己感觉良好，别 人也对他们感觉良好。”）由此可以推断出，Vaillant 在第二段的话解释了为什么一些男孩成 长为快乐的人，故选 D。 【14 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段 Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the men's menta l­health scores with their boyhood ­activity scores.可知 Vaillant 的研究小组通过比较不同的分数得到了 他们的发现，故选 C。 【15 题详解】 词义猜测题。根据下文 Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people，five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed.（那些在童年时期参加过最多活动的人，与各种各样 的人保持亲密关系的可能性是其他人的两倍，获得高薪的可能性是其他人的五倍，失业的不 可能性是其他人的 16 倍。）由此可知，The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp．的意思是男性在孩童时期的行为和成年后 的表现之间的联系是惊人的明确。“sharp”的意思明确，故选 C。 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。 Training for a marathon (马拉松) requires careful preparation and steady, gradual increases in the length of the runs. ___16___, buy the best-fitting running shoes you can find.

Time spent for preparation raises the quality of training G. Now you are ready to figure out a goal of improving distance and time 【答案】16. C 17. E 18. A 19. D 20. G 【解析】 试题分析：本文主要介绍了进行马拉松训练的具体做法。首先要为训练做好准备：准备好跑 鞋以及训练前的热身动作。第一周：训练跑步时间的逐天增加；第二周：训练跑步距离的逐 天增加；两周后，开始计时跑，制订逐步提高跑步时间和距离的计划。 【此处有视频，请去附件查看】 【16 题详解】 C 考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。该空后面提供的语境“…buy the best­fitting, best­built running shoes you can find.”说明这是为了跑马拉松进行的准备工作，这件事应该是在进行马 拉松训练之前做的事情，与“before you begin your training”有关。故选 C。 【17 题详解】 E 考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据该空前面提供的语境“When you have found shoes that seem right, walk in them for a few days to double­check the fit.”可知 E 选项中 they 指的是前面提到的 shoes，属于指代一致性，另外 feel good 与 the fit 有关。穿着合适的鞋再 进行跑步训练与 E 中的“you can begin running in them”一致。故选 E. 【18 题详解】 A 考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据该空前提供的语境“During the first week, do not think about distance, but run five minutes longer each day.”可知这里提到了一周七天的时间， 再根据空格后的“it is wise to take a day off to rest”可知剩余的就是六天的时间，与 A 项意思 一致。故选 A. 【19 题详解】 D 考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。该空前面提供的语境“But during the next week, set a goal of at least a mile and a half per run.”与 D 项的“每天增加半英里”意义相符。故选 D. 【20 题详解】 G 考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。前两句提到了逐日增加跑步的长度，两周后开始计 时，与 G 中的“improving distance and time”有关，故选 G. 考点：考查信息匹配。 第三部分 英语知识运用 （共两节，满分 45） 第一节 完形填空（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四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出可以 填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 No one is born a winner.

And the time is about from 9:00 to 11:00 pm on Sunday. Aiming to develop the aware of protecting the environment, the volunteer will do something valuable to the environment, such as picking up the rubbish, watering trees and flowers. Besides, please remember which you need to mind the grass and be careful about yourself. Please keep me informed it if you are willing to accept my invitation. Best wishes. Yours, Li Hua 【答案】第二句 a 前面加上 in；hold 改成 held 第三句 going 改成 go 第四句 are 改成 is 第五句 An 改成 The；closely 改成 close 第七句 aware 改成 awareness；volunteer 改成 volunteers 第八句 which 改成 that 第九句 删除 it 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇邀请信。李华邀请 Michael 参加英语俱乐部举办的志愿者活动，这里介绍了志愿者 活动的一些信息，包括时间，地点，目的等。 【详解】第一处：考查动词短语。participate in 加入，为固定搭配，所以需在 a 前加 in。 第二处：考查非谓语动词。hold 与 activity 之间是动宾关系，所以这里需用过去分词作定语， 故将 hold 改为 held。 第三处：考查固定句型。why not 后需接动词原形，为固定句型，所以需将 going 改为 go。 第四处：考查主谓一致。该句是副词 here 放句首引导的倒装句，主语为 some information， 不可数名词，所以这里的 be 动词需用单数形式。 第五处：考查定冠词。上文提到了这个活动是 a voluntary activity，再次提到用定冠词 the 表 示特指，故将 an 改为 the。 第六处：考查形容词。be 动词后需用形容词，且 be close to 意为“靠近”，为常用搭配，所 以需将 closely 改为 close。 第七处：考查名词。由 the 和 of 可知，这里需用名词，aware 为形容词，需用其名词 awareness，故将 aware 改为 awareness。 第八处：考查名词复数。这里的志愿者不止一个，所以需用名词复数，故将 volunteer 改为 volunteers。 第九处：考查宾语从句。因 which 后是一个完整的句子，而 which 引导的宾语从句在句中是 要作成分的，所以这里需用连词 that 引导宾语从句，故将 which 改为 that。 第十处：考查过去分词。“keep+宾语+宾补”指的是让某人处于某种状态，这里的用法是 keep sb +过去分词，因为 me 与 inform 之间是动宾关系，别人通知我，所以需用过去分词，故将 it 去掉。 【点睛】注意区分 that 和 which 引导的宾语从句的区别。that 在宾语从句中只起连接词的作 用，不充当任何成分，而 which 在宾语从句中必须要充当成分。在这段短文改错中出现了几 处都是考查的固定搭配，固定句型，例如，第一处的 participate in，第三处的 why not+动词 原形，第六处 be close to。这要求学生在平时多积累，熟练掌握固定搭配。除此之外，在做 改错题时还要注意时态，人称，连词的使用，这些错误往往是学生容易忽视的地方。 第二节 书面表达（满分 25 分） 52.假期中你外出旅游时发现许多不文明行为，如随地吐痰、乱涂乱画、乱丢垃圾等，请你 给 Beautiful China 编辑部写一封信，呼吁人们提高素质、文明出行。 内容要点：1. 你所看到的不文明行为及危害； 2. 为建设美丽中国，提出你的倡议（至少两点）； 3. 开头和结尾己 你写好，不计入总词数； 4. 不得出现真实姓名。 注意：1.词数 100〜120； 参考词汇：吐痰 spit；刻画 scratch；不文明行为 immoral behaviors Dear editor, I am writing to tell you about what I saw while traveling during this winter vacation. ___________________________________________________________________ _______________ ___________________________________________________________________ _______________ 为 ___________________________________________________________________ _______________ ___________________________________________________________________ _______________ ___________________________________________________________________ _______________ ___________________________________________________________________ _______________ __________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear editor, I am writing to tell you about what I saw while traveling during this winter vacation. I was surprised to see so many immoral behaviors in public places. Some people spit at wherever they went; some scratched their names on the street walls or other scenic spots, which did great damage to them. In my opinion, it’s high time we should take action to help improve the situation. First, certain laws should be passed to ensure people won’t damage the environment. Second, our media should also take responsibility to guide people to protect the environment. Last but not least, we travelers should learn to be more responsible for what we did. Only by working together can we make our country become more and more beautiful! Best wishes!
