As a professional athlete, Whitmore was used to suffering, but she never imagined the pain in her leg could be a deadly cancer.‎ What doctors found during surgery shocked them all: Whitmore had Spindle Cell Sarcoma, a soft tissue tumor (肿瘤) that can start in the bone, and the tumor was wrapped around her nerve and touching several vital organs. They couldn’t cut it out fearing to burst the tumor.‎ When she heard the diagnosis for the first time, Whitmore said, “time stood still, I couldn’t breathe. They were talking about the treatment and I started crying as I didn’t want to die.” Finally, the doctors enlisted the help of several specialists to remove the tumor. Whitmore developed sepsis (败血症) from the surgery and endured a two-month recovery. When she began to feel sick again, Whitmore was sure her cancer was back. Instead, doctors gave her unexpected news: She was pregnant-with twins. “That was a whole other freak-out,” Whitmore recalled.‎ She has never met a challenge she couldn’t overcome. Today, Whitmore is a mother of two sons and cancer-free. She is competing again, and has won a gold medal in the Paralympics (残奥会), nine world titles, and has set two world records. She travels as a motivational speaker when she doesn’t spend time with her sons. Whitmore has some words of advice for others with limitations: “Never let anyone tell you what you can and cannot do. Some doctors told me I would never ride anything. And yet I rode my mountain bike 104 miles climbing from 9,000 feet to 14,000 feet. People with two good legs have fallen short of that task! You just can’t give up.”‎ ‎1. How did Whitmore feel when knowing about her cancer?‎ A. Sad and scared. B. Ashamed and regretful.‎ C. Annoyed and frightened. D. Astonished and inspired.‎ ‎2. What does the underlined word “freak-out” in paragraph 3 refer to?‎ A. Something interesting. B. Something demanding.‎ C. Something unusual. D. Something meaningful.‎ ‎3. What’s the purpose of Whitmore’s traveling as a speaker?‎ A. To build up her character.‎ B. To inspire those with limitations.‎ C. To spend more time with her children.‎ D. To earn more money in her spare time.‎ ‎【答案】1. A 2. C 3. B ‎【解析】‎ 本文是记叙文。文章讲述了Jamie Whitmore被认为是美国最成功的运动员之一。她曾患有致命的癌症，但她凭借强大的意志力战胜了病魔，后来Whitmore担任演讲者去激励那些身体有局限性的人不管面对什么样的处境都不能放弃。‎ ‎【1题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第四段中的When she heard the diagnosis for the first time, Whitmore said, “time stood still, I couldn’t breathe. I started crying as I didn’t want to die.”可知，Whitmore第一次听到诊断时说：“时间停滞不前了，我无法呼吸。我不想死，我开始哭泣”。由此可知，在得知自己患癌时，她感到悲伤和恐惧。故选A。‎ ‎【2题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据第四段中的When she began to feel sick again, Whitmore was sure her cancer was back. Instead, doctors gave her unexpected news: She was pregnant-with twins.可知，当Whitmore再次感到不适时，她确定自己的癌症又复发了。而医生给了她一个出乎意料的消息：她怀了双胞胎。即这是Whitmore没有想到的，即可猜测出freak-out指的是“不寻常的事情”。故选C。‎ ‎【3题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的She travels as a motivational speaker when she doesn’t spend time with her sons. Whitmore has some words of advice for others with limitations可知，当她不陪儿子时，她以激励人心的演讲者身份去旅行。Whitmore对有局限性的人提出了一些建议。即Whitmore担任演讲者的目的是激励那些身体有局限性的人。故选B。‎ B When we’re studying a new language, many of us approach it with fear and anxiety. However, we would benefit a lot by changing our focus, according to communication skills trainer Marianna Pascal.‎ Pascal has spent 20 years in Malaysia helping people speak better English. Over time, she has discovered a surprising truth: How well somebody communicates in a new language has very little to do with his language level — but a lot more to do with his attitude.‎ Pascal noticed that a lot of Malaysians went into English conversations with the feeling that they were going to be judged by how many mistakes they were going to make. And they had the idea of what good proper English is supposed to be and how far they would have to go to get there.‎ As a teacher,she’d noticed one specific student named Faisal. Despite not knowing much English,this guy could just sit and listen to anybody very calmly,clearly,and then he could express his thoughts beautifully.‎ Pascal realized when Faisal entered an English conversation, he didn’t feel judged. He entirely focused on the person that he was speaking to and the result he wanted to get. He got no thoughts about his own mistakes.‎ Pascal believes that speaking a language is not like those exams that many of us had to take in school,where a tiny spelling or grammar mistake would result in a big red X from the teacher. In the real world, small mistakes don’t matter — what matters is whether we’re able to make ourselves understood. She concludes, “If you want to speak English like Faisal with that great confidence, here’s the one thing that you can do when you speak: Don’t focus on yourself, focus on the other person and the result you want to achieve.”‎ ‎4. Why was Faisal successful in English conversation according to Pascal?‎ A. His spoken English was quite excellent.‎ B. His attitude to speaking English was right.‎ C. He and his partner were good friends.‎ D. He made few grammatical mistakes.‎ ‎5. What is the Pascal’s attitude to the mistakes English speakers make?‎ A. Tolerant. B. Careful.‎ C. Grateful. D. Worried.‎ ‎6. What should you do if you want to communicate effectively in English?‎ A. Try to express yourself correctly.‎ B. Remember to use a new language.‎ C. Avoid any mistakes while speaking.‎ D. Concentrate on what the other people say.‎ ‎【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D ‎【解析】‎ 本文是说明文。文章讲述了人们在学习新的语言时往往会充满恐惧和焦虑。如果你想用英语进行有效沟通，应该专心于别人说的话，这样可以使我们受益匪浅。‎ ‎【4题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第五段中的He entirely focused on the person that he was speaking to and the result he wanted to get. He got no thoughts about his own mistakes.可知，他完全专注于与他交谈的人以及他想要获得的结果。他不去想自己的错误。因此根据Pascal的说法，Faisal在英语对话中取得成功的原因是他对于说英语的态度是正确的。故选B。‎ ‎【5题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第六段中的Pascal believes that speaking a language is not like those exams that many of us had to take in school, where a tiny spelling or grammar mistake would result in a big red X from the teacher.可知，Pascal认为，说一种语言并不像我们许多人在学校里必须参加的那些考试那样，因为微小的拼写或语法错误会导致老师批注红色的X。由此可知，Pascal对于说英语的人犯的错误持宽容态度。故选A。‎ ‎【6题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的Don’t focus on yourself, focus on the other person and the result you want to achieve.可知，注意力不要集中在自己是否会犯错误之上而是要专心听对方说话和要达到的目标。即如果你想用英语进行有效的沟通，你应该专心于别人说的话。故选D。‎ C Heat stress from extreme heat and humidity (湿度) will annually affect areas that are now home to 1.2 billion people by 2100, assuming current greenhouse gas emissions (排放), according to a Rutgers study.‎ Most climate studies on projected heat stress have focused too much on extreme heat but did not consider the role of humidity, which is another key driver. “When we look at the risks of a warmer planet, we need to pay particular attention to the combined effects of extreme heat and humidity, which are especially dangerous to human health.” said Robert E. Kopp, director of the Rutgers Institute of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences.‎ Rising global temperatures are increasing exposure to heat stress, which harms human health. Heat stress is caused by the body’s inability to cool down properly through sweating. Body temperature can rise rapidly, and high temperatures may damage the brain and other vital organs. What’s more, heat stress can result in heatstroke (中暑), which is the most serious heat-related illness, can kill or cause permanent disability without emergency treatment.‎ Annual exposure to extreme heat and humidity above safety guidelines will be projected to affect areas that are currently home to about 500 million people, if the planet warms by ‎1.5℃‎ and nearly 800 ‎ million at ‎2℃‎. The planet has already warmed by about ‎1.2℃‎ above late 19th century levels.‎ An estimated 1.2 billion people would be affected with ‎3℃‎ of warming, as expected by the end of this century under current global policies. That’s nearly four times the number of people affected today, and nearly 12 times the number who were affected in no industrial age.‎ ‎7. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs?‎ A. Many areas will be flooded by the end of 2100.‎ B. Exposure to polluted air may cause cancer.‎ C. Less attention has been paid to the effect of humidity.‎ D. Heat stress makes it harder to forecast the weather.‎ ‎8. What’s the harm of high body temperature?‎ A. Sweating a lot. B. Damaging organs.‎ C. Causing heart-attack. D. Leading to high blood pressure.‎ ‎9. How many people are affected by heat stress nowadays?‎ A. About 800 million. B. About 500 million.‎ C. About 1.2 billion. D. About 300 million.‎ ‎10. Which of the following is the best title for the text?‎ A. How to prevent heat stress B. Heat stress may affect more people C. The combination of heat and humidity D. The earth may get warmer and warmer ‎【答案】7. C 8. B 9. D 10. B ‎【解析】‎ 本文是说明文。研究表明，如果目前的温室气体排放量保持不变的话，到2100年，极端热量和湿度所产生的中暑将影响到越来越多的人。‎ ‎【7题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第二段中的Most climate studies on projected heat stress have focused too much on extreme heat but did not consider the role of humidity, which is another key driver.可知，大多数有关于中暑的气候研究都将重点放在极端热量上，但没有考虑湿度的作用，它是另一个主要的驱动因素。即湿度的影响被关注的很少。故选C。‎ ‎【8题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第三段中的Body temperature can rise rapidly, and high temperatures may damage the brain and other vital organs.可知，体温会迅速升高，高温可能会损害大脑和其他重要器官。故选B。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的An estimated 1.2 billion people would be affected with ‎3℃‎ of warming, as expected by the end of this century under current global policies. That’s nearly four times the number of people affected today可知，根据当前的全球政策，到本世纪末，估计会有12亿人受到‎3℃‎的升温的影响。这是今天受影响人口的近四倍。12（亿）的四分之一是3亿，即如今有约3亿人受到中暑的影响。故选D。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。通读全文尤其是第一段可知，Rutgers的一项研究表明，按照目前的温室气体排放量计算，到2100年，极端热量和湿度所产生的中暑每年将影响到现在有12亿人口居住的地区。结合选项可知，“中暑可能影响更多人”是符合文章内容的，可以作为标题。故选B。‎ 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。‎ The very idea of selling yourself during a job interview can be slightly afraid or worrying.

I later asked my sister Jeanne how she had known it was me! She said it was my laugh. I wouldn’t say my laugh is unusual, but I guess to a family member it can spread to him or her in some way. It hits their hearts and makes a deep, clear sound that continues for a long time in their minds. I would tell you our story right here.‎ I come from a broken family. After we grew up, I haven’t seen my other three brothers and sisters for many years. And that is where this story begins.‎ My sister Jeanne was only 14 months older than me,but by the time we were teenagers we had lost touch with each other. By age 19, I had moved away from our home in Wisconsin to live on my father’s horse farm in Virginia,where I worked to treat sick or injured animals. I was told that Jeanne got married at 18, and moved to Chicago. And our connection somehow ended since then.‎ About five years flew by. I was 24 and on a trip with my husband to New York City,a place where I had never been before. It was a very,very large city. I was used to riding my horse to the corner store where everyone knew everyone and everything going on in the quiet little town of Driver, Virginia. We went to New York to visit my husband’s cousin. We went to Little Italy, the Statue of Liberty, Chinatown, and several other places of interest. I had never seen so many taxis in one place in all my life.‎ One day, we were crossing a very busy street filled with people. Everyone was in a hurry. I ‎ laughed at something my husband said, and I suddenly heard my name called from somewhere behind me: “Chery!” I stopped in the middle of the road. Tears rolled down quickly at once from my face. I knew without a doubt that it was my sister Jeanne.‎ 注意：‎ ‎1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；‎ ‎2. 应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语；‎ ‎3. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；‎ ‎4. 续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。‎ Paragraph 1:‎ I shouted back before even turning to look. “Jeanne?” ‎ ‎_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ Paragraph 2:‎ Since that time，my sister and I have never been separated. ‎ ‎__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【答案】Paragraph 1:‎ I shouted back before even turning to look. “Jeanne?” It was her,my dear sister. I began pushing people out of my way to get to her. People in the street were looking at us very surprisingly. They started to part, letting us go through. And there we were,standing in the middle of the street,facing each other and smiling. I asked her what she was doing in New York, and she told me everything about herself those years. It was a miracle to see my sister there.‎ Paragraph 2:‎ Since that time,my sister and I have never been separated. My sister moved back to Wisconsin with me. We live not far away from each other,and we often visit our father together and look after him quite well. We visit each other as well and talk with each other almost every day.
