二、阅读理解
Rollins College's graduate Elizabeth Bonker gave a powerful speech at the school's graduation ceremony using text-to-speech technology." You have a voice. Use it," she advised graduates. It seemed funny that a non-speaking autistic(患孤独症的) person encouraged you to use your voice. However, her moving speech touched not only her fellow classmates but also the worldwide audience with a powerful message of hope.
Throughout her academic career, Elizabeth has studied hard to reach her goals at school and in life. She wrote a book, I Am in Here, which highlights the abilities of people like her with non-speaking autism. She also founded a non-profit organization called Communication 4 ALL.
Elizabeth has a form of autism that resulted in her losing the ability to speak when she was 15months old. After she lost her speech her family helped her learn to communicate by typing. She has become a supporter of assistive communication and typing instructions for those with non-speaking autism. "I have typed this speech with one finger with a communication partner holding a keyboard," shared Elizabeth.
Elizabeth majored in social service with the purpose of helping about 33 million people in the world who have non-speaking autism. She strongly believes that service to others gives meaning to each individual and to those they serve.
Throughout her life, Elizabeth has sought a platform where others would hear and accept her. She ignored negative comments and the low expectations others had for her life. Instead, she walked down her own path and set out to realize her dreams using intellect, talent and determination. She encouraged her fellow classmates to use their education and the power of their own minds to help make their dream a reality.

答案以及解析
一、语法填空
1.答案：eating
解析：“stop doing sth.”是固定短语搭配，意思是“停止做某事”，句中是说为了保持健康要停止吃垃圾食品，所以要用“eat”的动名词形式“eating”。
2.答案：Compared
解析：“compare”与主语“Tina”之间是一种被动关系，表达“与…… 相比”的意思时，常用 “Compared with...”这个结构，在句中作状语，所以要用“compare”的过去分词形式 “Compared”。
3.答案：was destroyed
解析：从语境来看，描述的是过去城市里的情况，“everything”与“destroy”之间存在被动关系，也就是城市里的所有东西是被破坏的，所以要用一般过去时的被动语态，其结构是“was/were + 过去分词”，“everything”作主语时谓语用单数形式，“destroy”的过去分词是 “destroyed”，所以填“was destroyed”。
4.答案： to
解析：考查固定短语。句意:非常值得费扬的是,你克服了这类难题。to one's credit 意为"使值得赞扬,使受尊重"。
5.答案：losing
解析：考查非谓语动词。句意:他总是担心失败,结果失去了很多展现他的才能的机会。分析句子结构并结合句意可知,空处应用非谓语动词作结果状语,表示自然而然的结果,故用动词-ing形式。
6.答案：economic
解析：考查词形转换。句意:尽管这两个国家在经济、政治和文化上存在差异,但两国已决定在处理全球性问题上进行合作。分析句子结构可知,空处与political和 cultural 并列作定语修饰differences,故应用所给词的形容词形式,且空处意为"经济上的",因此填 economic。
7.答案：to offer
解析：考查固定用法。句意:我们每个人都能提供有必要的和有价值的东西,尽管可能我们自己都不知道它是什么。have sth. to do 意为"有……要做",故填 to offer。
8.答案： how
解析：考查连词。句意:我们担心的是他将如何独自摆脱困境。分析句子结构可知,空处引导表语从句,且在从句中作方式状语,故填 how。
9.答案：paying
解析：考查非谓唔动词。句意:我旅行计划的第一个地方是北京,我期待着去那里参观长城。Look forward to…表示"期盼",to为介词,后接名词、代词和动词-ing形式。
10.答案：to
解析：考查介词。句意:这些国家不仅找到了一条不以牺牲古迹为代价的未来发展之路,而且明白了它们可以合作创造美好的未来。path后接介词 to表示"通向……的路"。
11.答案：had packed
解析：考查时态。句意:在我到家之前,父母已经打包好了所有的行李,为旅行做好了准备。根据句意可知,主句谓语动词 pack 表示的动作发生在从句谓语 got home 表示的动作之前,因此应用过去完成时。
12.答案：being recognised
解析：考查非谓语动词。句意:这位电影明星戴着太阳镜， 因此他可以购物时不被认出。根据句意并分析句子结构可知，without是介词,空处应用动词-ing形式，且he与recognise之间为逻辑上的动 宾关系，故用动词-ing形式的被动式。
13.答案：unearth
解析：unearth和Explore是并列谓语,在祈使句中都用动词原形。故填: unearth。
二、阅读理解
14.答案：A
解析：考查细节理解。根据文章第一段中的"However, her moving speech touched not only her fellow classmates but also the worldwide audience with a powerful message of hope"可知,她动人的演讲不仅打动了她的同学,也以充满希望的力量打动了全世界的观众,即她的演讲带给了观众希望。故选A项。
15.答案：C
解析：考查细节理解。根据文章第三段中的"After she lost her speech her family helped her learn to communicate by typing"可知,在她失去说话能力后,她的家人帮助她学习通过打字来交流,即帮她找到了另一种沟通方式。故选C项。
16.答案：D
解析：考查细节理解。根据文章倒数第二段中的" Elizabeth majored in social service with the purpose of helping about 33 million people in the world who have non-speaking autism"可知,Elizabeth主修社会服务专业是想帮助世界上更多像她一样的孤独症患者。故选D项。
17.答案：B
解析：考查推理判断。根据第三段中的"Elizabeth has a form of autism"和文章最后一段中的"Instead, she walked down her own path and set out to realize her dreams using intellect, talent and determination"可知,Elizabeth是一个失去语言能力的孤独症患者,但她用智慧、才华和决心来实现她的梦想,故可推知她的意志力是非常坚定的;再根据第二段中的"She also founded a non-profit organization called Communication 4 ALL",第四段中的"Elizabeth majored in social service with the purpose of helping about 33 million people in the world who have non-speaking autism"以及最后一段中的"She encouraged her fellow classmates to use their education and the power of their own minds to help make their dream a reality"可推知她是一个乐于助人的人。故选B项。
