You have a teenager in your home.But you needn’t feel helpless.In fact，you’re just five days away from your teenager asking，“What can I do to help？”Internationally recognized family expert Dr.Kevin Leman will help you get real results—really fast.‎ Boy Robot Seventeenyearold Isaak discovers the truth about his origin：a governmentmade human.But a deadly military force is trying to kill him.He and the other robots can only find protection from the Underground—a secret network of robots and humans working together to ensure a coexistent future.Isaak must decide whether to hold on to his humanity and face possible death or to embrace his true nature in order to survive.‎ If you are interested in any of the books，click here for further information：‎ https：//www.amazon.com/.‎ 语篇解读　本文属于应用文中的广告类短文，主要介绍了2018年亚马逊网站上四本畅销书的主要内容。‎ ‎21．Which book is a science fiction?‎ A．The Car.‎ B．The Running Dream.‎ C．Have a New Teenager by Friday.‎ D．Boy Robot.‎ 答案　D 解析　推理判断题。根据文章最后一部分前三句可知，本书主要讲述的是机器人Isaak和人类共同努力为有一个同时共存的未来而斗争的故事。属于科幻小说。故D项正确。‎ ‎22．Which of the following isn’t conveyed in The Running Dream?‎ A．Friendship. B．Modesty.‎ C．Bravery. D．Determination.‎ 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据文章第二部分第二段中的“As she struggles to cope with her prosthesis(义肢) and many other difficulties，Jessica develops a close relationship with Rosa，a girl who has a cancer and sees right into Jessica’s heart.”可知Jessica失去了一条腿，但她并没有丧失对生活的信心，而是勇敢地面对挫折，努力克服困难；并且和Rosa成了好朋友。体现出了友谊、勇敢和决心，此部分并没有涉及谦虚。故B项正确。‎ ‎23．Who is the book Have a New Teenager by Friday intended for?‎ A．Experts. B．Teenagers.‎ C．Parents. D．Teachers.‎ 答案　C 解析　读者对象题。根据文章第三部分中的“You have a teenager in your home.But you needn’t feel helpless.In fact，you’re just five days away from your teenager asking，‘What can I do to help？’”可推知，You指家里有孩子的父母，所以Have a New Teenager by Friday是写给父母的。故C项正确。‎ B The summer I turned 16，my father gave me his car—a gift wasted on me at that age.The important thing was that Hannah and I could drive around.‎ Hannah was my best friend，a year younger but much taller，almost five foot ten.“Hannah’s a knockout，”my mother always said.And that summer she signed with a modeling agency.She was already doing runway work.‎ A month after my birthday，Hannah and I went to the movies.On the way home，we stopped at the McDonald’s drivethrough，putting the fries on the seat between us to share.“Let’s ride around a while，”I said.It was a clear night，full moon slung(悬挂) low over the desert.Taking a turning too fast，I plowed(撞) through a neighbor’s wall and drove into a fullgrown tree.‎ We were taken in separate ambulances.I’d cracked(使裂开) my cheek bone；Hannah’s forehead had split wide open.End of her modeling career.What would I say to her?‎ When her mother，Sharon，came into my hospital room，I started to cry.She sat beside me and took my hand.“I rearended(追尾) my best friend when I was your age，”she said.“I totalled(彻底毁坏) her car and mine.”‎ ‎“I’m so sorry，”I said.‎ ‎“You’re both alive，”she said.“The rest is window dressing.I forgive you.Hannah will too.”‎ Sharon’s forgiveness allowed Hannah and me to stay friends throughout high school and college，to be at each other’s weddings... The scar is so faded that no one else would notice，but in the sunlight I can still see it just below her hairline—for me，a mark of grace(优雅)．‎ 语篇解读　本文是记叙文。16岁的“我”驾车带朋友兜风时发生意外，致使她受伤并失去了做模特的机会。但是，朋友和她的妈妈却没有因此而怨恨“我”，相反，她们原谅了“我”的过失。‎ ‎24．Why did the author think her father’s present was a waste?‎ A．It wasn’t necessary for her.‎ B．She had already owned a car.‎ C．Her family was very poor then.‎ D．She didn’t have a driving license.‎ 答案　A 解析　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“The summer I turned 16，my father gave me his car—a gift wasted on me at that age.”可以推知，“我”认为自己当时年纪小，不需要汽车，所以父亲把车作为礼物送给“我”是一种浪费。‎ ‎25．What does the underlined word “knockout” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ A．Honest person. B．Famous person.‎ C．Friendly person. D．Attractive person.‎ 答案　D 解析　词义猜测题。联系画线词前面的“Hannah was...much taller，almost five foot ten.”和画线词后面的“she signed with a modeling agency”可知，Hannah是一个很有魅力的女孩子。knockout意为“引人注目的人或物”。‎ ‎26．What did the author and her friend do after leaving the movies?‎ A．They went for a drive.‎ B．They enjoyed beautiful scenery.‎ C．They made a visit to a neighbor.‎ D．They worked at the McDonald’s.‎ 答案　A 解析　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Let’s ride around a while”和发生的车祸可知，看完电影后，“我”开车带Hannah去兜风。‎ ‎27．What is the best title for the text?‎ A．A Valuable Gift from My Father B．The Meaning of Friendship C．An Unforgettable Journey D．The Gift of Forgiveness 答案　D 解析　标题归纳题。本文通过一起事故讲述了朋友的“原谅”给自己带来的影响，故D项作标题既符合文章主旨又起到了升华主题的作用。‎ C Peter Skyllberg，a Swedish man，was trapped in his car for two months，with temperatures reaching －30 ℃，with no food or water，and yet he survived.The best explanation was that his vehicle created an “igloo (snow house) effect” and protected him from the extremely low temperatures and that his body would hibernate(冬眠) during this time.‎ Can humans get into a lowenergy consumption state like a bear by reserving energy，and reducing body temperature? Chinese scientists are looking for the key to regulating body temperature.‎ Scientists have found the hypothalamus(下丘脑)，an area in the central lower part of the brain，is responsible for regulating body temperature.Wang Hong，a brain scientist at the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences，led her team to mark the neurons(神经元) responsible for regulating body temperature in mice by means of a cuttingedge genetic biology technique.In the experiments，they injected (注射) drug into mice to make the body temperatures of the mice drop from 37 ℃ to 27 ℃ in two hours.The team found the change in body temperature caused no harm to the health of the mice.“We don’t know if we can develop a drug that can control human body temperature.We still need a lot of study，” Wang said.‎ Chinese scientists are not alone in such research.Bodycooling techniques are being used in pioneering hospitals around the world.Dutch doctors are now using low temperatures for patients who have suffered brain injuries in accidents.According to doctors working in Florence，it may even help to save the brains of babies who are born suffering from severe epileptic fits(癫痫病发作)．‎ 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文，介绍了科学家发现体温的变化不会对白鼠的健康造成损害，而且目前降体温疗法已经应用于医学上治疗脑损伤。‎ ‎28．Why does the author mention Peter Skyllberg?‎ A．To tell an amazing story.‎ B．To introduce the topic.‎ C．To teach survival skills.‎ D．To explain “igloo effect”．‎ 答案　B 解析　推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“The best explanation was that his vehicle created an ‘igloo (snow house) effect’ and protected him from the extremely low temperatures and that his ‎ body would hibernate(冬眠) during this time.”可知，Peter Skyllberg被困在车里两个月，在低温、没有食物和水的情况下奇迹存活的原因是他的车创造了一种雪屋效应并保护他免受极低的温度，文章提到这个例子就是为了引出科学家发现体温的变化不会对健康造成损害以及降体温疗法应用于医学上这一话题，故B项正确。‎ ‎29．What did Wang Hong’s team find in the experiment?‎ A．Genetic biology technique helped a lot.‎ B．A drug could control human body temperature.‎ C．The mice’s health wasn’t damaged by the change of body temperature.‎ D．Hypothalamus was responsible for regulating body temperature.‎ 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据第三段倒数第二句“The team found the change in body temperature caused no harm to the health of the mice.”可知，王宏的研究小组发现体温的变化不会对白鼠的健康造成损害，故C项正确。‎ ‎30．How can bodycooling techniques help people?‎ A．Brain injuries may be treated properly.‎ B．People trapped in snow can survive.‎ C．Patients with epileptic fits will be cured.‎ D．Medical accidents can be avoided.‎ 答案　A 解析　细节理解题。根据最后一段第三句“Dutch doctors are now using low temperatures for patients who have suffered brain injuries in accidents.”可知，荷兰的科学家正在用降体温疗法治疗在事故中遭受脑损伤的患者，由此可知，降体温技术可以使脑损伤得到适当的治疗，故A项正确。‎ ‎31．The text is probably taken from .‎ A．a biology textbook B．a science fiction C．a survival brochure D．a medical magazine 答案　D 解析　文章出处题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了科学家发现体温的变化不会对白鼠的健康造成损害，而且目前降体温疗法已经应用于医学上治疗脑损伤，属于医学范畴，最有可能出自医学杂志，故D项正确。‎ D A freshly baked roll is as delightful as a soft，light cloud on a summer’s day.What gives bread much of its appealing texture is gluten，a group of proteins found in wheat.But in people with celiac disease(乳糜泻)，gluten damages the small intestine(肠)．Many others may have milder gluten intolerance and avoid foods that contain it.‎ Most glutenfree bread is made from alternative flours such as rice or potato，so it tastes and feels different from wheat bread.Now，however，researchers say that they have found a way to genetically engineer wheat that contains far less of the most troublesome type of gluten—but still has other proteins that give bread its characteristic taste and springiness.‎ Genetically modified crops are the subject of fierce debate around the world.The biggest concern involves the practice of inserting DNA from one species into another，says Francisco Barro，a plant biotechnologist.To avoid this genetic crossover，Barro and his colleagues used the geneediting technique CRISPR/Cas9 to cut selected genes from a wheat genome(基因组)．‎ Their study zeroed in on alphagliadins (α－胶质蛋白)，gluten proteins believed to be wheat’s major troublemakers in the immune system.The researchers designed bits of genetic material that directed the scissorlike Cas9 protein to cut out 35 of the 45 alphagliadin genes.When the modified wheat was tested in a Petri dish，it produced an 85 percent weaker immune response，the team reported online last September in Plant Biotechnology Journal.‎ Wendy Harwood，a crop geneticist at the John Innes Center in England，who was not part of the study，notes that the engineered wheat has a long way to go before it can be turned into anything marketable.“I don’t think it’s the end of the story，” she says.“This is just a really important step in maybe producing something that is going to be incredibly useful.” To develop a completely safe strain of wheat for celiac patients，the researchers may need to target more of the gluten genes.Barro says his team is working on that.‎ 语篇解读　本文属于科普文，主要介绍小麦中面筋对患有乳糜泻的人有副作用，因此可以利用基因技术来改良小麦中的DNA，减少面筋的含量，但是距离投入市场还有很长的路要走。‎ ‎32．What’s the text mainly about?‎ A．Making glutenfree bread.‎ B．Advantages of glutenfree wheat.‎ C．Debate about genetically modified crops.‎ D．Developing genetically engineered wheat.‎ 答案　D 解析　主旨大意题。根据文章可知，本文主要阐述小麦中面筋对患有乳糜泻的人有副作用，因此可以利用基因技术来改良小麦中的DNA，减少面筋的含量，故选D。‎ ‎33．Why is bread mentioned in Paragraph 1?‎ A．To advertise a new study.‎ B．To raise the topic to be written about.‎ C．To provide some advice for the readers.‎ D．To popularize some information about medicine.‎ 答案　B 解析　推理判断题。根据第一段可知，本段提及面包是为了引出面筋的作用，因而属于引出话题，故选B。‎ ‎34．What concerns people most according to Paragraph 3?‎ A．Genetic crossover.‎ B．Geneediting technique.‎ C．The practice of using DNA.‎ D．The subject of fierce debate.‎ 答案　A 解析　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The biggest concern involves the practice of inserting DNA from one species into another，says Francisco Barro，a plant biotechnologist.”可知，最大的担忧就是把DNA从一种物种植入到另外一种，故选A。‎ ‎35．What’s Wendy Harwood’s attitude towards engineered wheat?‎ A．A little alarmed. B．Mildly surprised.‎ C．Somewhat opposed. D．Cautiously optimistic.‎ 答案　D 解析　观点态度题。根据最后一段首句“Wendy Harwood，a crop geneticist at the John Innes Center in England，who was not part of the study，notes that the engineered wheat has a long way to go before it can be turned into anything marketable.”可知，该基因学家认为基因改良的小麦要投入市场还有很长的路要走，故可知她对此是谨慎又乐观的态度，故选D。‎ 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。‎ Penguins are flightless birds that spend half their time on land and half in the water.‎ ‎ 36 They have dark and white feathers，and their wings have evolved into flippers(脚蹼)．Most penguins feed on fish，squid and other forms of sea life caught while swimming.‎ ‎ 37 They are mostly found in groups that include thousands of penguins.Penguins each have their own unique mating call，and they use that to locate their mate and chicks in such a large group.‎ Although almost all penguin species are native to the Southern Hemisphere，they are not found only in cold Antarctica. 38 Several species are even found in the temperate zone，and one species，the Galátpagos penguin，lives near the equator(赤道)．‎ Unfortunately，many penguin species worldwide are facing threats.The biggest is climate change and global warming.As the earth warms up，the sheets of ice have melted，and the algae(藻类) that grow under the ice decrease.The algae are eaten by tiny creatures called zooplankton.When there is a drop in zooplankton，it affects the fish that depend on it. 39 ‎ Another major threat is from oil spills.If coated with oil，penguins cannot float or swim in water.Also，if oil is swallowed，penguins will die from poison. 40 ‎ A．These birds are very social.‎ B．In fact，only a few of them live so far south.‎ C．Penguins are highly adapted for life in the water.‎ D．The biggest threat for penguins comes from humans.‎ E．They have a tendency to live in a community together.‎ F．As a result，penguins have less fish to eat and thus starve.‎ G．Others include overfishing，illegal egg harvesting，and natural enemies.‎
