She was born in Worcester, Massachusetts in 1911. Her dad died when she was just a baby and her mom never recovered from the loss; she went to live with her grandparents in Nova Scotia, Canada when she was five. Eventually Bishop attended Vassar College, where she began to write poetry.‎ At Vassar she discovered Marianne Moore’s poetry and met “Ms. Moore” and began their life-long friendship. She later met poet Robert Lowell. She wrote tons and tons of letters to both of them, which is good for us because we would otherwise know very little of her personal life. Bishop’s poetry is sometimes considered objective and cold because it shows almost nothing about the poet or her life.‎ Bishop published her first book of poetry in 1946 and wrote until her death in 1979. She would spend years working on a single poem. Her poems are not the result of hasty scribbling (匆忙乱写)‎ ‎ on paper while eating breakfast. Over a lifetime of writing, she only published about 275 pages of poetry, and about 40 of those are translations. She would look through drafts of poems again and again and improve them until they were as close to perfect as she could get them.‎ Reading Elizabeth Bishop is like being transported to the very place, the very moment she’s writing about. She leads us to a microscope so we can see every smallest part of the scene. It seems she’s always asking us to notice more, and more until the poem is so clear in our minds that it’s almost painful — like a light that’s too bright. It might take your eyes a while to get used to it, but once they do, you’ll like what you see.‎ ‎5．What do we know about Bishop’s early life?‎ A. She started to write poems at five.‎ B. She was always encouraged by her parents.‎ C. She spent her childhood mainly in Worcester.‎ D. She was mainly brought up by her grandparents.‎ ‎6．What can we say about Bishop’s poetic creation?‎ A. She liked to write in the morning.‎ B. She could write poems at high speed.‎ C. She tried her best to achieve perfection.‎ D. She published hundreds of books of poetry.‎ ‎7． Which can be used to describe the style of Bishop’s poems? ‎ A. Exact. B. Informal. ‎ C. Humorous. D. Enthusiastic.‎ C At school, I was in the top set for maths. My teachers recommended that I study economics and statistics as my Alevel subjects, but I had my mind set on a life fulfilled by the arts.‎ In fact, I was a victim of a gender stereotype made stronger since birth, that men do science and maths and women do arts or languages. Computer science, technology and physics just did not figure in my teenage world view. Nobody popular in my school chose to study those subjects.‎ Reality struck hard when I began attending job interviews and interviewers would say, “It's great that you speak foreign languages, but what else do you do？” Nobody asked my friends who had studied science or technology this kind of questions.‎ A survey recently showed that three of the bestpaid jobs for women are in the technology sector. It's a sector that really can change the world. We must show girls that technology has an effect on every industry out there, from fashion to architecture to journalism. Anybody can learn to code and these days it's as important as reading and writing. I've realized that at university I'd achieved the wrong kind of literacy. Not being able to code limits your impact on the world far ‎ more than some ignorance of great literature.‎ Now I have a fiveyearold daughter. I don't want her to blindly follow gender roles the way I did. I want her to know the fact that a science or technical degree will not limit her creativity but expand it and broaden her horizons far more than my arts background could. I'm exposing her to Minecraft and apps, which help improve analytical thinking and problemsolving skills. I'm hoping that my daughter will discover and accept her potential in science and want to change the world.‎ ‎8．What does the underlined phrase “gender stereotype” in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A. Personal learning style. B. Sex characteristic.‎ C. Conventional(传统的) sex concept. D. Profession difference.‎ ‎9．According to the author, which may be the benefit of learning science?‎ A. Increasing job possibility. B. Winning popularity.‎ C. Improving language competence. D. Enriching imagination.‎ ‎10．How did the author feel for her major choice?‎ A. Satisfied.　　　　　　 B. Active.‎ C. Discouraged. D. Regretful.‎ ‎11．What may be the best title for the text?‎ A. Art or Science, Either Is OK B. Good Subjects, Good Future C. Girls, Choose More Wisely D. Catch Chances, Change the World D Most of the 20th century has been a development on the Industrial Revolution taken to an extreme: people now own more products than ever before; there are enough nuclear weapons to destroy the earth several times over; there is hardly any forest left and pollution has got to the point where we buy water. Within a few years I predict you will be able to buy air. (There once was a time when you didn't need to buy food or shelter either.)‎ Important developments in the last century are the breaking down of the class structures left over from the Industrial Revolution stage, bringing with it the empowerment of the “common man”: the working day is set by law to only 8 hours a day; everyone has the vote; the media has less obvious government control; people have landed on the moon, sent spacecrafts to Mars and so on. Families have also shrunk drastically (剧烈地); the nuclear family came about, and especially in the last half of the 20th century, oneparent families are becoming more common. This shrinking in the size of the family shows the increased independence of people—once upon a time people had to live in large groups to survive.‎ As humans have “become the gods”, they have realized their individuality and independence and taken their control of the world to an extreme. In many countries the land is almost completely used in the production of food and as living space and they live in small cities which are entirely human constructed, made from materials which are also entirely human constructed (concrete ‎ bricks) with hardly any remains of nature. Weeds are poisoned because they are messy; even parks have trees grown in tidy lines; grass is mowed to keep it short and so on. I think the massive drug “problem” troubling people is a result of too much of this influence, humans needing to escape the stark world they have created by entering fantasy worlds.‎ Over the last 100 years, the 20th century consciousness has spread throughout the world; most of Asia has been thoroughly “Westernized”, and most of the Third World is being overrun by Western ways of doing things and living.‎ ‎12．What's the author most concerned about?‎ A. The influence of pollution.‎ B. Strong effects of development.‎ C. Changed positions of humans as gods.‎ D. The process of the Industrial Revolution.‎ ‎13．What is the author's attitude towards the changes of the 20th century?‎ A. Objective.　　　　　　　 B. Tolerant.‎ C. Vague. D. Negative.‎ ‎14．What does the underlined word “stark” in Paragraph 3 mean?‎ A. Unfair. B. Illegal.‎ C. Dull. D. Violent.‎ ‎15．What can be inferred from the passage?‎ A. Men's individuality is over controlled.‎ B. People have damaged nature too much.‎ C. Men's independence is partially limited.‎ D. People show concern for nuclear families.‎ 第二部分 完形填空（每小题1.5分，满分30分） ‎ 阅读下面的短文，掌握其大意，从各题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。‎ My fiance (未婚夫) and I were excited about shopping for our first home.

D　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Her dad died when she was just a baby...live with her grandparents in Nova Scotia,Canada when she was five.”可知,毕肖普主要是由祖父母带大的。‎ ‎6. C　细节理解题。根据第三段的内容可知,毕肖普创作诗歌的时候精益求精,力求完美。本段中的“until they were as close to perfect as she could get them”是最关键的线索。‎ ‎7. A　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“She leads us to a microscope so we can see every smallest part of the scene.”和“It seems she’s always...that’s too bright.”可知,毕肖普的诗歌讲究精准到位。‎ C ‎8. 选C　词义猜测题。根据第二段，尤其是该段第一句“In fact, I was a victim of...women do arts or languages.”可知， 事实上，“我”自出生以来就是传统性别观念的受害者， 人们始终认为男性适合科学和数学，而女性适合艺术或语言。据此可以判断，画线部分意指“传统性别观念”，故C项正确。‎ ‎9. 选A　推理判断题。根据第三段可知， 尽管“我”会外语， 但是用人单位还是想要科学技术类人才；结合第四段第一句“A survey recently showed that three of the bestpaid jobs for women are in the technology sector.”可知， 最近的调查显示， 三份收入最高的女性的工作是在科技行业。据此可以判断， 作者认为学习科技能增加就业机会， 故A项正确。‎ ‎10. 选D　推理判断题。根据第三、四段可知， 尽管“我”会外语， 但是用人单位还是想要科学技术类人才，最近的调查显示三份收入最高的女性的工作是在科技行业； 结合第二段中的“victim” 和第五段中的“blindly” 可以判断，“我”对自己的专业选择很后悔。D项意为“后悔的”， 符合文意。‎ ‎11. 选C　标题归纳题。通读全文可知， 上学时“我”的最佳学科是数学，‎ ‎ 老师建议“我”学习经济学和统计学，但是由于受传统性别观念认为男性适合科学和数学，而女性则适合艺术或语言的影响，最终“我”选择了学习文科。在求职过程中，“我”屡屡碰壁。如今，作为一个五岁女孩的母亲，“我”希望她不受传统性别观念的影响，勇敢地选择学习科学技术，改变世界。据此可以判断，C项最适合作本文的标题。B项“好的科目，好的未来”表述太宽泛。‎ D ‎12. 选B　推理判断题。由第一段可以得出答案，即现代社会的快速发展带来了很多强烈的影响。这正是作者所担心的问题。因此B项符合题意。‎ ‎13. 选D　观点态度题。结合全文尤其是第一段第一句和第三段第一句中的“to an extreme”可知，作者对20世纪的发展所导致的结果是持否定态度的。‎ ‎14. 选C　词义猜测题。unfair意思是“不公平的”；illegal意思是“违法的”；dull意思是“枯燥无味的，无趣的”；violent意思是“暴力的”。根据前面几句话中对现实世界的描述可知，C项符合语境，即由于现代社会的快速发展，世界变得很枯燥，完全脱离了自然的影子。‎ ‎15. 选B　推理判断题。根据全文内容，尤其是倒数第二段可知B项正确。即随着现代社会的发展，人类对自然环境造成了严重的破坏。其他几项与原文内容不符。‎ 完形填空 ‎16． B 【解析】作者在开头第一句提到：“我和我的未婚夫为能购买我们的第一个新的家庭住房而感到兴奋”，但在“But”后面话锋一转，说到“……在我们的出价范围内的房子没有一个能够令人觉得满意”，结合上下文合理的逻辑推断设空处的语义只能是：“我们的资金有限”，应选B“limited”，而A、C、D选项均不符合句意。‎ ‎17． A 【解析】设空所在句的主语是“One agent(一个房产销售代理商)”，从本段下文“she kept urging us to have a look”和后面的叙述可知，这位房产代理商仅是向作者和她的未婚夫特别“推荐”一处房子，而非“装修”、“售出”或“出租”该处房子，A选项“recommended”与上下文语境相符，为正确答案。‎ ‎18． C 【解析】设空处前半句话说：“尽管她对房子的描述听起来很棒……”，但后半句又提到：“……我们还是拒绝了”，可推知这所房子的价格依然“超出了”我们出价的范围，所以这里正确答案应选C“beyond(超越)”。‎ ‎19． A 【解析】设空所在句的意思是：“她一直敦促我们至少该去看一看那所房子”。A选项“at least(至少；最起码)”，表示让步转折，与上文的“But”相呼应，符合上下文语境，为正确答案。‎ ‎20． C 【解析】设空所在句的意思是：“我们终于去看了那所房子，并在第一眼就爱上了它。”英语中“love at first sight”为固定词组，是“一见钟情”的意思，符合上下文语境，故选项C为正确答案。‎ ‎21． B 【解析】作者在文章第三段提到非常喜爱这所房子——“我们的家就应该是这个样子，小巧而迷人，俯瞰一个安静的湖。”作者在设空所在句中描述道：“我们一边穿过房间，一边和业主，一对和善的老夫妇聊着天，同时感受到了家庭里婚姻的温暖和 ‎ ______。”显然空白处所填的词应与连词and前的warmth意义相近。选项B“happiness(幸福)”填在这里最能与其形成并列呼应，为正确答案。‎ ‎22． D 【解析】设空所在句的意思是：“但是每一天，我们都会坐在湖边，看着那座房子，梦想着住在那里会是一种什么样的感觉”。根据句子语法结构，设空处缺一个能引导介词of后。面的宾语从句的连接词，同时本身又在从句中担任介词like的宾语，连接代词what符合要求，为正确答案。‎ ‎23． B 【解析】根据后半句“far below the asking price”可推断出作者是在这里提出了一个买房的报价，英语中“make an offer”是“出价”的意思，符合上下文语境；文章下一段中间部分的“We made our final offer…”一句，使用了几乎相同的词语表达，也为此题提供很好的后位提示，故B为最佳答案。‎ ‎24． D 【解析】由于设空前一句提到作者提出的报价“远低于要价”，不难想象这一行为很容易被房主视为荒唐可笑，但作者使用“Surprisingly(令人惊讶地)”一词暗示一种出乎，预料的结果——“房主却并没有 _____ 我们”，四个选项中能最符合逻辑地填在空白处的只能是“laugh at(嘲笑；讥笑)”，而其他几个选项均与上下文语义相差甚远，故D为正确答案。‎ ‎25． A 【解析】上一空提到房主并未讥笑他们，设空所在句意为：“他们重新提出要价”，这是与前面完全相反的行为，四个选项中，只有A选项“instead(反之)”符合上下文逻辑关系，故为正确答案。‎ ‎26． C 【解析】设空所在句的意思是“这一价格虽然超过我们能承受的范围，但已远远低于原来的要价了。”本句中的连词“but”表达对比转折，设空处所填词应为前半旬对应部分的more的反义词，只有C选项“less”能与上文形成强烈的语义对照．，为正确答案。‎ ‎27． B 【解析】根据下文“另一个买家已经提供了一个更高的出价”，可知设空所在句的意思是“我们得到了一个令人失望的消息……”。B选项“disappointing”与上下文语义相符，为正确答案。‎ ‎28． D 【解析】根据下文“‘Sold!’said the owner．”可知设空所在句的意思是：“我们仍然决定直接跟房主本人接洽”。故D选项为正确答案。‎ ‎29． B 【解析】设空所在句的意思是：“我们的最后报价，还是比其他买家的出价低几千美元”。、四个选项中，只有B选项“still”可以表示“仍然”，与上下文语义相符，为正确答案。‎ ‎30． D 【解析】设空所在句的句意为：“我们。知道这个事实，但是我们不得不试一试。”四个选项中，只有D项“but”可以表示转折，最符合逻辑。‎ ‎31． D 【解析】设空前一句的意思是房主同意出售给我们。后面句子说：“其实我们每一次坐在湖边观赏这所房子他都看到了”。这明显是房主对自己决定将房子出售给我们的解释，四个选项中，“explained”最符合上下文，故选项D填在此处最为合适。‎ ‎32． C 【解析】设空句的意思是：“他(the owner)知道我们有多么爱这个地方，相信我们会珍视多年来他们为这所房子所投入的一切”。根据上下文，只有C选项“appreciate”可以表示“欣赏、感激、珍惜”，故C为正确答案。‎ ‎33． A ‎ 【解析】设空所在句的意思是：“他非常清楚把房子卖给我们会有一定经济上的损失，但他认为这是值得的，因为我们是他们想要让住在那里的人。”上文提到作者出价比其他买家的出价低几千美元，这意味着房主将房子卖给作者必然要承受“损失”，四个选项中只有A“loss”可以表示“损失；亏损”，故A选项为正确答案。‎ ‎34． B 【解析】设空所在句的意思是：“他告诉我们可以把买房中的‘差价’视作他们送给我们的‘结婚礼物’。”上文提到房主即使低价也宁愿把房子卖给这对年轻人，因为看出他们是真心喜欢这所房子的人，他们的这种善意虽然是以结婚礼品馈赠的形式转达，但实际体现在与最高出价不同的房价差异中，，所以这里应该选B项“difference(in the price)”，其他三个选项：A“increase(增加)”；C“interest(利息)”；D“average(平均值)”，均与上下文语义不相符。‎ ‎35． A 【解析】设空所在句的意思是：“这就是我们找到我们新家的经历。这段经历也告诉了我们，对于心存善意的人来说，他们永远不会是陌生人，只是我们还没有见过的朋友。”这是作者在经历这一事件后的感悟——虽然他们此前与房主并不相识，但对同一事物的喜爱使他们遇到了一起，相互赏识，并以馈赠结婚礼品的形式成为了真正的朋友。这一切都是建立在“友善待人”的基础上实现的，A选项与上下文语义相符，为正确答案。‎ 单词拼写 ‎36. application 37.

Knowing that you are wondering what preparations should be made for this journey, I'd like to offer you some advice.‎ To begin with, I suggest that you should learn some basic Chinese, especially words and expressions for daily communication, which will help you avoid some unnecessary misunderstandings when travelling. What's more, it will be wonderful if you can check on the transportation in advance. China is such a large country that there are various means of transport, for which you'd better decide on your route and choose the suitable one.
