And at age 23, she left for Nairobi, Kenya. There, Jane met famed Dr. Louis Leakey, who offered her a job at the local natural history museum. She worked there for a time before Leakey decided to send her to the Gombe Stream Game Reserve in Tanzania to study wild chimpanzees. He felt her strong interest in animals and nature, and her knowledge as well as high energy made her a great candidate to study the chimpanzees. In December 1958, Jane returned home to England and Leakey began to make arrangements for the expedition (考察), securing the appropriate permissions from the government and raising funds. In May 1960, Jane learned that Leakey had gained funding from the Wilkie Brothers Foundation. Jane arrived by boat at the Gombe Stream Game Reserve on the eastern shore of Lake Tanganyika with her mother. The early weeks at Gombe were challenging. Jane developed a fever that delayed the start of her work. Finally, an older chimpanzee named David Greybeard, began to allow Jane to watch him. As a high ranking male of the chimpanzee community, his acceptance meant other group members also allowed Jane to observe. It was David Greybeard whom Jane first witnessed using tools. Excited, she telegraphed Dr. Leakey about her observation. He wrote back, “Now we must redefine ‘tool,’ and ‘man,’ or accept chimpanzees as humans.” Jane continued to work in the field and, with Leakey’s help, began her doctoral program without an undergraduate degree in 1962. At Cambridge University, she found herself at odds with senior scientists over the methods she used — how she had named the chimpanzees rather than using the more common numbering system, and for suggesting that the chimps have emotions and personalities. She further upset those in power at the university when she wrote her first book, My Friends, the Wild Chimpanzees, aimed at the general public rather than an academic audience. The book was wildly popular, and her academic peers were outraged. Dr. Jane Goodall earned her Ph.D. on February 9, 1966, and continued to work at Gombe for the next twenty years. 4. What can we infer from the passage? A. The journey to Kenya rooted Jane’s deep love for animals. B. Jane was the first to discover chimpanzees use tools. C. Dr. Leakey easily raised funds from the Wilkie Brothers Foundation. D. Jane’s work at the Gombe Stream Game Reserve went along smoothly. 5. What is the academic peers’ attitude towards Jane’s first book? A. Extremely ambiguous. B. Genuinely pleased. C. Truly sensitive. D. Really angry. 6. What does the underlined sentence imply in paragraph 4? A. Senior scientists disagreed with Jane’s method in observing chimpanzees. B. Jane’s method inspired more scientists to make further discoveries. C. Jane’s achievements quickly attracted attention from senior scientists. D. Jane’s study of chimpanzees received no support from scientists. 7. What can we learn from Jane Goodall? A. Challenging senior scientists is a must in gaining fame. B. Cooperation is the only key to making significant discoveries. C. Passion and hard work can make a difference in scientific research. D. The ability to raise funds counts in achieving great success. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. C 【解析】 这是一篇记叙文，叙述了灵长类动物学家 Jane Goodall 的学习和工作经历。她致力于对野生 黑猩猩的研究，并取得了重大的成就。 【4 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“it was David Greybeard whom Jane first witnessed using tools. Jane 是第一次看到 David Greybeard 使用工具的人。”可知，是 Jane 第一个发现了黑猩猩使用工 具，故选 B。 【5 题详解】 推断判断题。根据最后一段的“she further upset those in power at the university when she wrote her first book.当她写她的第一本书时，她让大学里的掌权者更加不安.” 以及“the book was wildly popular, and her academic peers were outraged.这本书大受欢迎，她的学术同行们都被激 怒了”得知学术界的同行们对简的第一本书持愤怒的态度。故选 D。 【6 题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段画线句子破折号后的语句“how she had named the chimpanzees rather than using the more common numbering system, and for suggesting that the chimps have emotions and personalities. 她是如何给黑猩猩命名的，不是使用更常见的编号系统，以及她 如何表明黑猩猩有情感和个性。”解释，了解到她命名黑猩猩的方式并没有采用传统的数字 编号系统，她暗示黑猩猩是有情感和个性的。因此，可以得出 Jane 在自己研究黑猩猩的使 用方法上与其他科学家存在着分歧。由此可知划线句子的意思是“资深科学家不同意简观察 黑猩猩的方法。”故选 A。 【7 题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段第一句“As a child, Jane Goodall had a natural love for the outdoors and animals. And at age 23, she left for Nairobi, Kenya. 孩提时代，Jane Goodall 对户 外和动物有着天生的热爱。在她 23 岁的时候，她去了肯尼亚的内罗毕。”和“her knowledge as well as high energy made her a great candidate to study the chimpanzees.她的知识和充沛的精 力使她成为研究黑猩猩的最佳人选。”以及通过全文内容可知 Jane 非常热爱动物，坚持观 察野生黑猩猩，她的激情和努力帮助了她在科学研究中取得了成就，故选 C。 C The Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University has turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named “DriveLAB” in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are. Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and wellbeing among older people, leading to them becoming more isolated(隔绝) and inactive. Led by Professor Phil Blythe, the Newcastle team are developing invehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life. These include custommade navigation(导航) tools, night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations. Phil Blythe explains: “For many older people, particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important for preserving their independence, giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others.” “But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills. The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.” Dr Amy Guo, the leading researcher on the older driver study, explains, “The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.” “For example, most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly, we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined. We’re looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that.” “We hope that our work will help with technological solutions(解决方案) to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.” 8. What is the purpose of the DriveLAB? A. To explore new means of transport. B. To design new types of cars. C. To find out older driver’s problems. D. To teach people traffic rules. 9. Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe? A. It keeps them independent. B. It helps them save time. C. It builds up their strength. D. It cures their mental illnesses. 10. What do researchers hope to do for older drivers? A. Improve their driving skills. B. Develop driverassist technologies. C. Provide tips on repairing their cars. D. Organize regular physical checkups. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. A new Model Electric Car B. A Solution to Traffic Problem C. Driving Service for elders D. Keeping Older Drivers on the Road 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了老年司机在需要停止开车的年龄之前就不得不停止开车， 所以一些研究人员就开始了解老年司机存在的问题，想要用技术去解决这些问题，比如开发 了控制速度的系统、制定导航工具、夜视系统和智能速度适应。 【8 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段 The Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named “DriveLAB” in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.可知，DriveLAB 为了理解 老年司机所面对的挑战，发现关键点在哪里。即发现老年司机的问题，故选 C。 【9 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中 Phil Blythe explains: “For many older people, particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important for preserving their independence, giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others.”可知，开车对于保持老年司机 的独立性很重要，让他们可以自由地出去走动，而不必依赖别人。故选 A。 【10 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中 The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.及最 后一段 We hope that our work will help with technological solutions(解决方案) to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.可知，研究人员想要用技术解决的老年司机的关键难 题，而且正在研究一种控制速度的系统，即开发驾驶员辅助技术，故选 B。 【11 题详解】 主旨大意题。本文主要讲述一些研究人员想要利用技术解决老年司机驾驶存在的问题，其目 的是帮助老年司机能够一直开车直到应该停止的年龄，故以 Keeping Older Drivers on the Road 符合全文主旨，其他题目都太片面，不足以概括全文。故选 D。 【点睛】主旨大意题解题技巧 Topic/Title 型使用逆推法 （1）要在阅读原文基础上，仔细考虑选项是否与文章主题有密切联系 （2）再看选项对文章的概括性或覆盖面如何 （3）要注意题目是否过大或者过小 （4）要避免下列三种错误概括不够（多表现为部分代整体，导致范围过小）、过度概括（多 表现为扩大范围）、以事实、细节代替抽象概括的大意。 比如第四题主要围绕老年司机为主，故排除了 A 和 B，对象不正确。C. Driving Service for elders. 为老人提供服务，本文也算服务的一种，但是犯了过度概括的错误，范围扩大了， D. Keeping Older Drivers on the Road.这正是本文介绍的内容，研究人员目的也是延长老年司机 的驾驶时间。故选 D。 D FaceApp has taken the world by storm, giving users the chance to see themselves age through its algorithm(算法). 12.7 million people—some three million more than the population of New York City—reportedly downloaded it in a week last month. Although the Russian app has become known for its privacy issues, the more interesting lesson of our FaceApp fling(尽情玩乐)is what it tells us about our society—and our future lives. It turns out we are more interested in aging than we realized. Most younger people are denying old age, doing almost nothing to prepare for it. We rarely have a chance to plan for the future, with increasing time and financial pressures. Those pressures bring sacrifices we may not always want to make: we can no longer afford to spend the time or the money needed to look after our elderly parents. As a family doctor, I can see the loneliness epidemic(流行病) developing. Elderly patients come to see me with no particular illness, no clear medical issue. After a few minutes of the consultation, I understand why: they are not sick, and often they don’t feel sick. They just need someone—anyone—to talk to. Although loneliness has no medical classification, the health effects are real: loneliness and isolation can be as harmful as smoking 15 cigarettes a day, and is more damaging than obesity. But loneliness does not come with nearly enough health warnings. So what next? Since 1980, we are living on average 10 years longer. Meanwhile, people are having fewer children, and they are having them much later in life. The snake of a world class health service is eating its own tail; its care is prolonging people's lives, but as the rate of pensioners(退休人员)to workingage people increases, there are fewer taxpayers to fund that very health service. Into this emptiness have stepped NGOs, charities and volunteers. But in the long term, the only way to truly help the oldest members of our society is to go back to the traditional values of intergenerational cooperation—often under the same roof. Ultimately, we will need to evolve towards a culture where elderly care is treated the same as childcare, where employers recognize the duty of someone with an elderly parent the same way they recognize those of someone with a newborn child. 12. What’s the writer’s intention of mentioning FaceApp in the first two paragraphs? A. To prove its popularity. B. To explain its function. C. To show the progress of technology. D. To introduce the topic of aging and loneliness. 13. What makes elderly people without illness go to see their family doctors? A. Desire to have the consultation. B. Strong feeling of loneliness. C. Unclear medical issues. D. Questions to ask doctors. 14. How can the oldest members be truly helped? A. By being treated as children. B. By going back to the traditional society. C. By providing family care. D. By living with other elderly people under the same roof. 15. What can we learn from the passage? A. The loneliness of elderly people needs more attention. B. FaceApp’s popularity proves it has no security problems. C. Health service lacks fund because of prolonged people’s lives. D. FaceApp is helpful in dealing with elderly people’s loneliness. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。文章以 FaceApp 为切入点，介绍了随着社会的发展，成年人忙于工作和 生活，忽视了对老年人的陪伴，造成了老年人非常孤独的这样一种社会现象。作者建议我们 要更多的关爱陪伴老年人。 【12 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“FaceApp has taken the world by storm, giving users the chance to see themselves age through its algorithm(算法).”(FaceApp 已经席卷全球，让用户有看到自己 变老的机会)以及第三段的“As a family doctor, I can see the loneliness epidemic(流行病) developing.”(作为一名家庭医生，我可以看到孤独这种流行病正在发展)可推测，用 FaceApp 举例是为了引出本文关于衰老和孤独的话题。故选 D 项。 【13 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“After a few minutes of the consultation, I understand why: they are not sick, and often they don’t feel sick. They just need someone—anyone—to talk to.”(几分钟的 咨询后，我明白了原因：他们并没有生病，也没有感觉不舒服。他们只是需要有人聊天，任 何人都可以)可知，老人来找医生不是因为生病，而是想找人说说话。由此可知，他们找医 生是因为他们感觉很孤独。故选 B 项。 【14 题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的“the only way to truly help the oldest members of our society is to go back to the traditional values of intergenerational cooperation—often under the same roof. We will need to evolve towards a culture where elderly care is treated the same as childcare”可知作 者认为真正能帮助家庭老年成员的方式是回归到传统的两代人的交流协作，在同一屋檐下居 住来陪伴他们。将对老年人的护理和对婴幼儿的照顾同等对待，像关爱婴幼儿一样给予他们 关爱。即给老人提供家庭关爱能真正的帮助老年人。故选 C 项。 【15 题详解】 推理判断题。从第四段中的“But loneliness does not come with nearly enough warnings”可 知，然而，孤独并没有引起足够的健康警示。因而推断老人的孤独应该得到更多的关注。故 选 A 项。 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 根据下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有 两项为多余选项。 What will man be like in the future—in 5000 or even 50, 000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time. ___16___ Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is a relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain’s capacity. As time goes on, however , we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change too: the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger. ___17___ In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that man’s eyes will grow stronger. On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. ___18___ At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life. But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. ___19___ Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! ___20___ All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own. A. This may well be true. B. Let us take an obvious example. C. Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. D. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. E. Now how exactly will this great revolution occur? F. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald. G. We’re all set to get much taller and thinner, if we want to survive. 【答案】16. B 17. C 18. D 19. F 20. A 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了未来 5 千年或更久以后人类的样子。 【16 题详解】 本空在段首，紧随第一段最后一句“we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time. ”（我们可以肯定，他将会不同于今天的他，因 为人类一直在慢慢地变化)以及下文“Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today.（人类在五百年前比现在的人要矮。）Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal.（还有，在现代社会，我们经常使用我们的大脑。）”从身高和脑力运用两个举例对比 五百年前人类与现在人类的区别，起上承上启下作用。B 选项“让我们举一个明显的例子”。 故选 B。 【17 题详解】 根据下文“事实上，由于我们经常使用眼睛，眼睛变得越来越弱，我们不得不戴眼镜。”故 C 选项“现在我们的眼睛经常被使用”引起下文。本句的 them 指代上文中的 our eyes。故 选 C。 【18 题详解】 根据前一句 On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. （另一方面，我们 倾向于较少使用我们的胳膊和腿。）可知，选项说明上一句所产生的的结果。less use 对应 选项中的 grow weaker.故 D 选项“他们会变得越来越弱”切题。故选 D。 【19 题详解】 根据上文 But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. （但是头发呢?随着时间的推移，它 可能会从身体上完全消失，因为它不再有任何有用的作用。），头发的作用越来越小而可能消 失，由此可知未来男女都将成秃头。 disappear 对应选项中的 be bald。故选 F。 【20 题详解】 根据前文的举例说明人类的外貌特征的改变，以及上文句子 Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at!（也许所有这一切给人 的印象是，未来的人类不会是一个非常有吸引力的生物!），人类将不再如以前好看。选项对 上文进行总结。故 E 选项“这很有可能成为事实”切题。故选 A。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分 30 分） 第一节（共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的 最佳选项。 Danielle was living in a new city with no local bank of her own.

Sometimes I think this man came into my life for the unique purpose of telling me this story, one about how brave, creative and trusting his brother was, which has delighted and inspired me ever since. For the purpose of this story, let's call the little brother Little Brother. Little Brother, a young painter, went to France to surround himself with beauty and inspiration. He lived on the cheap, painted every day, visited museums, traveled to picturesque places, bravely spoke to everyone he met, and showed his work to anyone who would look at it. One afternoon, he struck up a conversation at a cafe with a group of charming young people who turned out to be some fancy nobles. They took a liking to Little Brother and invited him to a party that weekend in a castle in the Loire Valley. They said this was going to be the party of the year. It would be attended by the rich and famous and by several crowned heads of Europe. Best of all it was a masquerade ball（化妆舞会）where nobody would hesitate in their spending on the costumes. “Dress up,” they said, “and join us!” Excited, Little Brother worked all week on a costume that he was certain would be highly impressive. He held back on neither the details nor the imagination of this creation. Then he rented a car and drove three hours to the castle. He changed into his costume in the car and went up the castle steps. Little Brother entered the ballroom, head held high. Upon arrival, he immediately realized his mistake. This was indeed a costume party—his new friends had not misled him there—but he had missed one detail in translation: This was a themed costume party. The theme was “a medieval （中世纪的）court”. And Little Brother was dressed as a lobster（龙虾）. All around him, the wealthy and beautiful were dressed in fancy clothes, wearing sparkling jewels. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ He took a deep breath and walked onto the dance floor. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ 【 答 案 】 All around him, the wealthy and beautiful were dressed in fancy clothes, wearing sparkling jewels. Little Brother, on the other hand, was wearing a red coat, red tights, red ballet slippers, and giant red claws. Also, his face was painted red. He stood at the top of the steps for one long, frightful moment. Running away in shame seemed like the easiest response. But he didn't run. Somehow, he found his determination. He'd come this far, after all. He'd worked really hard to make this costume, and he was proud of it. He took a deep breath and walked onto the dance floor. As he moved into the crowd, a silence fell.“I am the court lobster," Little Brother bowed deeply and announced. Then: laughter. Not ridicule just joy.They loved him. They loved his sweetness, his weirdness (怪诞)，his giant red claws, and his skinny legs in his bright tights. He made the party. Sometimes its like that. What you absolutely must not do is walk out; otherwise you will miss the party. 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。作者从朋友口中得知 Little Brother 的一次舞会经历。Little Brothe, 一位年轻画家不怕出丑，扮成搞笑龙虾，参加富人的化妆舞会，勇敢地调侃幽默，化尴尬为 快乐的故事。 【详解】本文属于记叙文。全文的结构上分为 5 个自然段。第一段：讲述我在 20 年前从朋 友处听到了一个关于他哥哥是多么勇敢，多么有创造力，多么信任他的故事，这个故事一直 激励着我。第二段介绍 Little Brother,一个年轻的画家，在和一群年轻人攀谈后，发现他们都 是些高贵的贵族。这些贵族邀请他参加那个周末在卢瓦尔河谷的一座城堡里举行的化装舞会 派对。第三段讲述 Little Brother 对于这次受邀很认真的做了准备：他花了一周时间，设计了 一套服装， 然后他租了辆车，开了三个小时到了城堡。 他在车里换上戏服，走上了城堡的 台阶。 第四段讲述在他进入到舞池后，他才意识到自己的错误。第五段描述主 题舞会的内容。朋友之前给他讲述此次舞会时漏掉了一个细节: 这是一个以”中世纪宫廷”为 主题的化妆舞会。续写的第一段的开头讲到：他周围的富人和美女都穿着华丽的衣服，戴着 闪闪发光的珠宝。由上文可知，Little Brother 进入到舞池后，已经知道他的穿着和此次舞会 的主题不符合，据此可知，在接下来的论述中，将会提及 Little Brother 的装扮，这样可以和 周围的富人、美女形成对比，同时描写 Little Brother 对此情景自己的心里感受；续写的第二 段 开 头 提 到 ， 他 深 吸 了 一 口 气 ， 走 上 舞 池 。 所 以 接 下 来 的 情 节 中 要 描 述 Little Brother 如何化解自己的尴尬处境。 【点睛】读后续写作为语言表达能力测试的表现形式，写作中要结合所给出的语篇，以理解 文章的细节为根据，利用已有的文章线索，想象并描述接下来可能提及的内容。所以，在写 作要求上，续写内容要符合语境，同时也要和已有的段落形成自然连接，逻辑要清楚。本文 的续写承接了上文的内容，细致地描述了故事主人公在面临尴尬的处境时，处理危机的机智。 语言得体，句式紧凑，逻辑清晰。文章中的高分句型如下：动名词短语做主语：Running away in shame seemed like the easiest response. 主语从句：What you absolutely must not do is walk out.
