第二部分　阅读理解(共两节，满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项
A
What Is Your Pet Trying to Tell You
Animals want our attention, and sometimes they’re quite obviously about asking for it. Unusual behaviors are often our pets’ way of telling us to stop what we’re doing and play with them. It’s why Fido constantly chases his tail and why Kitty keeps rolling around. A desperately bored pet may have “bad” behaviors to get a reaction-even a negative one!
Feed me.
Sure, your dog loves you, but that’s not why he’s licking(舔)your face. A puppy learns to lick his mother’s mouth to get a little leftover food, so Spot isn’t kissing you in our sense of the word; he just wants a snack.
I’m stressed.
Cat owners also misinterpret their furry friends’ kisses. While a cat might lick you to show love, sometimes she’ll do it to ease herself. One way to tell if her licking is stress-related is to see if it goes on for an extended period of time. Birds also overclean when they feel anxious. Some will even drag out their own feathers.
My tail tells all.
Dogs wag(摇)their tails to the right when they see something or someone they want to approach, and to the left when they see something they want to avoid. When frightened, dogs curl their tails in, while cats wrap theirs around themselves. And if a cat’s tail looks like a question mark, she’s eager to play.
21. What does a dog show if it kisses its owner
A. Hunger. B. Love. C. Fear. D. Sadness.
22. How many kinds of pets are mentioned in the text
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
23. What will happen if birds get anxious
A. They will drag others’ feathers.
B. They will approach someone they like.
C. They will clean their feathers more than necessary.
D. They will stare at their owners for a longer time.
B
Most of us travel with our parents as children and teenagers. For some of us, during the travel, our parents are our inspiration. These trips are normally full of rental cars, beaches, and hamburgers. My family would go to Galiano island every summer, and we did a week in Mexico in 1995, and then we did two different trips to Anaheim to experience the magic of Disney, Universal, and Knott’s Berry Farm.
But all of these are childhood experiences and memories. I didn’t really truly travel with my parents until I was an adult when I got the chance to travel with mom and dad.
I was in New Zealand for a study abroad, and invited my parents to come down for a 2-week road trip around the North Island and then 10 days in Fiji. Why not They said, as if this was something they were invited to do every day. I didn’t really plan anything, but my mom had done some reading and I knew some highlights after living in New Zealand for 5 months.
I had booked a hotel for their first night in Auckland. The only other preparation I had done was to book a rental car. My parents immediately reached an agreement that I should be the driver for the whole two weeks. The main reason for this, understandably, was that neither of them had ever been in a country where you drive on the left hand side of the road and on the right hand side of the car. This led to me driving my parents around the entire North Island of New Zealand for 2 weeks! But still, everybody had jobs. Dad had the maps, and mom had the guidebook, and I just took them where they told me to go.
Sometimes, I was asked who I was traveling with. When I said “my parents”, the response was, “Ohhh, older people.” Actually, I have some tips on travelling with parents happily.
24. Which can replace the underlined word “inspiration” in Para. 1
A. Cooks. B. Guides. C. Drivers. D. Translators.
25. Why did the parents let the writer drive the car in New Zealand
A. They were not used to the driving rules.
B. They were afraid of the mountain roads.
C. They were too old to drive for a long time.
D. They were not familiar with the brand of the car.
26. What is the best title of the text
A. Drive on the Way. B. Travel with Parents.
C. Enjoy New Zealand. D. Recall the Childhood.
27. What will the writer share next
A. The argument with parents. B. The memory in Fiji as a child.
C. The scenery during the road trip. D. The advice on outing with parents.
C
Thanks to this new hands-free suitcase, carrying around heavy luggage may soon become a thing of the past. Designed by an Israeli company NUA Robotics, this “smart” suitcase will follow you everywhere you go.
The carry-on suitcase, currently a prototype (雏形), connects to a smart phone app via Bluetooth. It has a built-in camera sensor that can “see” you and follow you around on flat surfaces like airport floors. It comes with an anti-theft alarm to prevent someone carrying it away when you’re not looking and it has a backup battery that you can use to charge all your devices.
“It can follow and carry things for people around while communicating with their smart phone, and avoiding obstacles,” explained Alex Libman, founder of NUA Robotics. “We’re combining sensor network, computer vision, and robotics. So if you download our app, press the follow-me button, the luggage recognizes the specific user and knows to follow and communicate.”
NUA is still testing the device and trying to improve features like speed and customization (定制), but they hope to make the suitcase available to customers in a year’s time. If it proves successful, they want to use the Bluetooth pairing technology to automate lots of other devices, like shopping carts at the supermarket. These devices are especially meant to be useful to the physically disabled and elderly. “Any object can be smart and robotic,” Libman said, “We want to bring robots into everyday life.”
The Israeli tech company made it clear that the finished product will look just like a regular suitcase. They’re planning to partner with a carry-on luggage maker, since the device that makes it “smart” weighs just 2.5 pounds and can be fitted on old-fashion luggage.
With NUA’s smart suitcase carrying round heavy luggage isn’t a burden. But how their invention will handle tough obstacles like stairs It will be interesting to wait.
28. Why can this carry-on suitcase follow you
A. Because there is a camera sensor inside.
B. Because there exists an anti-theft alarm.
C. Because it can recognize your smell.
D. Because a battery plays a key part.
29. According to the passage, the “smart” suitcase _______.
A. can go everywhere
B. is on sale now
C. can make our hands free during traveling
D. was designed by Alex Libman
30. What can we learn about NUA
A. It is an Israeli tech company producing mobile phones.
B. It has improved the features of the device.
C. It will make the suitcase available to customers in a month.
D. It wants to bring more smart and robotic devices into everyday life.
31. Where does the article probably come from
A. A text-book. B. A website.
C. A biography. D. A poster.
D
Going cashless or not
After saving up your allowance, you finally have enough money to buy that toy, game, or piece of clothing you’ve been dreaming of. You go to the store and find the item. But when you get the register to pay, you see a sign: “Hello! We’ve gone cashless.”
Situations like this may become common if more stores and restaurants stop accepting cash as payment. Instead, customers must pay with a credit or debit card, or by smartphone app. Many business owners believe that getting rid of cash has helped them streamline(使效率更高) the way their business runs. Staff members don’t have to worry about having enough money in the register to make change or about delivering bills and coins to the bank.
But a growing number of people think that cashless stores are unfair. According to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, more than 8 million households in the United States don’t have bank accounts. Also, many people, including kids, don’t meet the requirements for a credit card. “A cash-less economy is not an inclusive(范围广泛的) economy,” Tazra Mitchell told National Public Radio. She’s a policy director at the DC Fiscal Policy Institute. In her opinion, cashless stores are “essentially discriminating (歧视) against people”. Plus, people who do have debit and credit cards might prefer paying with cash. “Cash is still very popular with consumers,” Nick Bourke said. He’s a director at the Pew Charitable Trusts’ consumer finance project. “It’s used by almost eight in ten adults in the US every month. That’s more than any other payment type.”
Lawmakers in several places have taken steps to ban cashless stores. A handful of major cities, including New York City and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have already passed laws to address the issue. In San Francisco, California, a law banning cashless stores was passed in May. It says most stores in the city must allow customers to pay with cash. Derek Remski helped write the San Francisco law. He works for the city. “It’s really about fairness,” Remski said. “It’s about understanding that not everyone has equal access to things.”
32. What’s the major function of paragraph 1
A. To describe a memorable experience.
B. To generalize the whole passage.
C. To test reader’s reaction to the situation.
D. To introduce the theme of the whole text.
33. What’s the attitude of business owners to going cashless
A. Neutral. B. Indifferent C. Supportive. D. Opposed.
34. What’s paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The requirements for kids to open a bank account.
B. The reasons why people think cashless stores are unfair.
C. The relationship between cashless stores and households.
D. A research done by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
35. What’s the aim of the law passed in May
A To ban illegal trade. B. To ban cashless stores.
C. To protect cashless stores. D. To ensure business owner’s rights.

Science can help you improve your study methods. For more than 100 years, psychologists have done research on which study habits work best. Here are 4 tips to improve your study habits.
Space out your studying
Nate Kornell, a psychologist at Williams College, thinks it’s a good idea to study the day before a big test. ___36___ . Instead, space out those study sessions. Kornell compares our memory to water in a cup. Try to refill the cup while it’s still full, and you can’t add much more water. Allow time between study sessions, and some of the material may drip out of your memory. But then you’ll be able to relearn it and learn more in your next study session.
Practice, practice, practice!
Musicians practice their instruments. Athletes practice sports skills. ___37___ “If you want to be able to remember information, the best thing you can do is practice,” says Katherine Rawson.
Test yourself
Scientist Nebel suggests. “ ___38___ Put questions on one side and the answers on the other side of the card and try to quiz yourself the way the teacher asks questions.” she adds. “It will be of great help.”
___39___
It’s hard to remember a string of facts and figures if you don’t push further. Ask why things are a certain way. How did they come about Why do they matter Psychologists call this elaboration. It’s taking class material and asking a lot of how and why questions about it. This helps you combine new information with other things you know. And it creates a bigger network in your brain of things that relate to one another. ___40___ .
A. Dig deeper
B. Try your best
C. Of course, nothing can replace studying with your mother
D. The same should go for learning
E. That larger network makes it easier to learn more and deeper
F. Create a pack of cards every time you learn new information
G. But research shows it’s a bad idea to force all your studying into that day

M: Well, we visited the old castle on Saturday. I love history and the kids enjoyed exploring all the different rooms. And we visited the museum on Sunday. It’s so interesting. You can see what the town looked like in the past.
W: What did you do on Saturday evening
M: I wanted to go to a football match, but there were no tickets. So we went to see a movie instead. The kids liked it, but I didn’t. It was boring, to be honest.
W: What did you do for food
M: Helen likes trying new food different from Italian food. So we planned to go to a Thai restaurant. Helen enjoyed it, but the kids didn’t like the food, so we walked to a Chinese restaurant, further along the street.

【原文】M: Hi, I’m Chris from Florida. Last year, I moved to London, where I’m working for an American company. It’s been a big change, and there have been lots of things to get used to. For example, in the U.S. we drive on the right, while here in Britain I’ve had to get used to driving on the left. What else Well, the weather in Florida is usually great, so I’m used to lots of sunshine, and I used to sunbathe a lot. In London it rains so much. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to it, and I always remember to take my umbrella with me. Food in England is different, too. In America, I used to eat a lot of Mexican food. Here in England, people love Indian food, so I’m getting used to the different tastes. At the company where I work, it’s quite different. I used to work from 9 a.m. till 11 p.m. I hated working so late. Here in England, I start at 8:30 a.m., but finish at 5 p.m. On Friday evening English people like to go to the club with friends, but in America I used to go to the gym. I love sports. Is there anything else Some of the words are different. The subway is called the “underground” in London, and British people call the fall “autumn”.
第二部分　阅读理解(共两节，满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项
A
What Is Your Pet Trying to Tell You
Animals want our attention, and sometimes they’re quite obviously about asking for it. Unusual behaviors are often our pets’ way of telling us to stop what we’re doing and play with them. It’s why Fido constantly chases his tail and why Kitty keeps rolling around. A desperately bored pet may have “bad” behaviors to get a reaction-even a negative one!
Feed me.
Sure, your dog loves you, but that’s not why he’s licking(舔)your face. A puppy learns to lick his mother’s mouth to get a little leftover food, so Spot isn’t kissing you in our sense of the word; he just wants a snack.
I’m stressed.
Cat owners also misinterpret their furry friends’ kisses. While a cat might lick you to show love sometimes she’ll do it to ease herself. One way to tell if her licking is stress-related is to see if it goes on for an extended period of time. Birds also overclean when they feel anxious. Some will even drag out their own feathers.
My tail tells all.
Dogs wag(摇)their tails to the right when they see something or someone they want to approach, and to the left when they see something they want to avoid. When frightened, dogs curl their tails in, while cats wrap theirs around themselves. And if a cat’s tail looks like a question mark, she’s eager to play.
21. What does a dog show if it kisses its owner
A. Hunger. B. Love. C. Fear. D. Sadness.
22. How many kinds of pets are mentioned in the text
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
23. What will happen if birds get anxious
A. They will drag others’ feathers.
B. They will approach someone they like.
C. They will clean their feathers more than necessary.
D. They will stare at their owners for a longer time.
【答案】21. A 22. B 23. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了三种宠物表达某些想法时的一些行为表现。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“A puppy learns to lick his mother’s mouth to get a little leftover food, so Spot isn’t kissing you in our sense of the word; he just wants a snack.(小狗学会舔妈妈的嘴来吃剩下的食物，所以斑点不是我们所说的“亲吻”；他只是想吃点零食。)”可知，小狗亲吻它的主人是想要表达饥饿的意思。故选A。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段提到的dog，第三段提到的cat和birds可知，可知，文中共提到三种宠物。故选B。
【23题详解】

B
Most of us travel with our parents as children and teenagers. For some of us, during the travel, our parents are our inspiration. These trips are normally full of rental cars, beaches, and hamburgers. My family would go to Galiano island every summer, and we did a week in Mexico in 1995, and then we did two different trips to Anaheim to experience the magic of Disney, Universal, and Knott’s Berry Farm.
But all of these are childhood experiences and memories. I didn’t really truly travel with my parents until I was an adult when I got the chance to travel with mom and dad.
I was in New Zealand for a study abroad, and invited my parents to come down for a 2-week road trip around the North Island and then 10 days in Fiji. Why not They said, as if this was something they were invited to do every day. I didn’t really plan anything, but my mom had done some reading and I knew some highlights after living in New Zealand for 5 months.
I had booked a hotel for their first night in Auckland. The only other preparation I had done was to book a rental car. My parents immediately reached an agreement that I should be the driver, for the whole two weeks. The main reason for this, understandably, was that neither of them had ever been in a country where you drive on the left hand side of the road and on the right hand side of the car. This led to me driving my parents around the entire North Island of New Zealand for 2 weeks! But still, everybody had jobs. Dad had the maps, and mom had the guidebook, and I just took them where they told me to go.
Sometimes, I was asked who I was traveling with. When I said “my parents”, the response was, “Ohhh, older people.” Actually, I have some tips on travelling with parents happily.
24. Which can replace the underlined word “inspiration” in Para. 1
A. Cooks. B. Guides. C. Drivers. D. Translators.
25. Why did the parents let the writer drive the car in New Zealand
A They were not used to the driving rules.
B. They were afraid of the mountain roads.
C. They were too old to drive for a long time.
D. They were not familiar with the brand of the car.
26. What is the best title of the text
A. Drive on the Way. B. Travel with Parents.
C. Enjoy New Zealand. D. Recall the Childhood.
27. What will the writer share next
A. The argument with parents. B. The memory in Fiji as a child.
C. The scenery during the road trip. D. The advice on outing with parents.
【答案】24. B 25. A 26. B 27. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章叙述了曾经年少由父母带着出门旅游的我，长大后，开始带父母出去旅游的故事。
【24题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段划线词inspiration的下文“These trips are normally full of rental cars, beaches. and hamburgers.”可知，父母带孩子出门旅行时，父母负责租车，选定游玩的沙滩和解决吃饭的问题。由此可见，父母就是旅行的总指挥，是向导，B项意为“向导”，符合题意。故选B。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The main reason for this, understandably, was that neither of them had ever been in a country where you drive on the left hand side of the road and on the right hand side of the car”（这一点的主要原因是，他们两人都不习惯驾驶座位在汽车右侧，并且汽车上路靠左行驶的交通规则，这一点是可以理解的）可知，父母二人都不习惯驾驶座位在汽车右侧，并且汽车上路靠左行驶的交通规则。故选A。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，作者小时候跟着父母旅游，父母负责安排。长大后，作者陪父母去新西兰旅游，一路上订宾馆，当司机，长途开车，虽累但幸福。所以最佳题目应紧扣“旅行”和“父母”两个关键词，B项意为“和父母旅行”，符合题意。选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一句“Actually, I have some tips on travelling with parents happily.”（事实上，我有一些和父母一起快乐旅行的小贴士。）可知，作者接下来，要和大家分享和父母快乐出游的建议。故选D。
C
Thanks to this new hands-free suitcase, carrying around heavy luggage may soon become a thing of the past. Designed by an Israeli company NUA Robotics, this “smart” suitcase will follow you everywhere you go.
The carry-on suitcase, currently a prototype (雏形), connects to a smart phone app via Bluetooth. It has a built-in camera sensor that can “see” you and follow you around on flat surfaces like airport floors. It comes with an anti-theft alarm to prevent someone carrying it away when you’re not looking and it has a backup battery that you can use to charge all your devices.
“It can follow and carry things for people around while communicating with their smart phone, and avoiding obstacles,” explained Alex Libman, founder of NUA Robotics. “We’re combining sensor network, computer vision, and robotics. So if you download our app, press the follow-me button, the luggage recognizes the specific user and knows to follow and communicate.”
NUA is still testing the device and trying to improve features like speed and customization (定制), but they hope to make the suitcase available to customers in a year’s time. If it proves successful, they want to use the Bluetooth pairing technology to automate lots of other devices, like shopping carts at the supermarket. These devices are especially meant to be useful to the physically disabled and elderly. “Any object can be smart and robotic,” Libman said, “We want to bring robots into everyday life.”
The Israeli tech company made it clear that the finished product will look just like a regular suitcase. They’re planning to partner with a carry-on luggage maker since the device that makes it “smart” weighs just 2.5 pounds and can be fitted on old-fashion luggage.
With NUA’s smart suitcase, carrying round heavy luggage isn’t a burden. But how their invention will handle tough obstacles like stairs It will be interesting to wait.
28. Why can this carry-on suitcase follow you
A. Because there is a camera sensor inside.
B. Because there exists an anti-theft alarm.
C. Because it can recognize your smell.
D. Because a battery plays a key part.
29. According to the passage, the “smart” suitcase _______.
A. can go everywhere
B. is on sale now
C. can make our hands free during traveling
D. was designed by Alex Libman
30. What can we learn about NUA
A. It is an Israeli tech company producing mobile phones.
B. It has improved the features of the device.
C. It will make the suitcase available to customers in a month.
D. It wants to bring more smart and robotic devices into everyday life.
31. Where does the article probably come from
A. A text-book. B. A website.
C. A biography. D. A poster.
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. D 31. B

【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中“ “Any object can be smart and robotic,” Libman said, “We want to bring robots into everyday life.”(“任何物体都可以是智能和机器人的，”利布曼说，“我们希望把机器人带入日常生活。”)”可知，利布曼作为NUA机器人公司的创始人，其公司旨在希望把更多的智能和机器人设备带入日常生活。故选D。

Going cashless or not
After saving up your allowance, you finally have enough money to buy that toy, game, or piece of clothing you’ve been dreaming of. You go to the store and find the item. But when you get the register to pay, you see a sign: “Hello! We’ve gone cashless.”
Situations like this may become common if more stores and restaurants stop accepting cash as payment. Instead, customers must pay with a credit or debit card, or by smartphone app. Many business owners believe that getting rid of cash has helped them streamline(使效率更高) the way their business runs. Staff members don’t have to worry about having enough money in the register to make change or about delivering bills and coins to the bank.
But a growing number of people think that cashless stores are unfair. According to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, more than 8 million households in the United States don’t have bank accounts. Also, many people, including kids, don’t meet the requirements for a credit card. “A cash-less economy is not an inclusive(范围广泛的) economy,” Tazra Mitchell told National Public Radio. She’s a policy director at the DC Fiscal Policy Institute. In her opinion, cashless stores are “essentially discriminating (歧视) against people”. Plus, people who do have debit and credit cards might prefer paying with cash. “Cash is still very popular with consumers,” Nick Bourke said. He’s a director at the Pew Charitable Trusts’ consumer finance project. “It’s used by almost eight in ten adults in the US every month. That’s more than any other payment type.”
Lawmakers in several places have taken steps to ban cashless stores. A handful of major cities, including New York City and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have already passed laws to address the issue. In San Francisco, California, a law banning cashless stores was passed in May. It says most stores in the city must allow customers to pay with cash. Derek Remski helped write the San Francisco law. He works for the city. “It’s really about fairness,” Remski said. “It’s about understanding that not everyone has equal access to things.”
32. What’s the major function of paragraph 1
A. To describe a memorable experience.
B. To generalize the whole passage.
C. To test reader’s reaction to the situation.
D. To introduce the theme of the whole text.
33. What’s the attitude of business owners to going cashless
A. Neutral. B. Indifferent C. Supportive. D. Opposed.
34. What’s paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The requirements for kids to open a bank account.
B. The reasons why people think cashless stores are unfair.
C. The relationship between cashless stores and households.
D. A research done by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
35. What’s the aim of the law passed in May
A. To ban illegal trade. B. To ban cashless stores.
C. To protect cashless stores. D. To ensure business owner’s rights.
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. B 35. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章就是否使用现金支付这个话题展开讨论。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。由第一段“But when you get the register to pay, you see a sign: ‘Hello! We’ve gone cashless. ’”（但是当你让收银机付款时，你会看到一个标志：“你好！我们已经不用现金了。”）可知，第一段呼应了标题“Going cashless or not”（无现金与否），所以第1段的主要功能是介绍全文的主题，故选D项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。由第二段“Many business owners believe that getting rid of cash has helped them streamline(使效率更高) the way their business runs. Staff members don’t have to worry about having enough money in the register to make change or about delivering bills and coins to the bank.”（许多企业主认为，摆脱现金有助于他们简化他们的业务运行方式。工作人员不用担心收银机里有足够的钱来找零钱，也不用担心把钞票和硬币送到银行。）可知，许多企业主认为不用现金更方便，所以企业主对无现金的态度是支持的，A项“Neutral”（中立的），B项“Indifferent”（不关心的），C项“Supportive”（支持的），D项“Opposed ”（反对的），故选C项。
【34题详解】
主旨大意题。由第三段“But a growing number of people think that cashless stores are unfair.”（但是越来越多人认为无现金商店是不公平的。）可知，很多人认为无现金商店是不公平的，是第三段的主题句，整段内容都是围绕这个主题句展开，所以第3段主要是谈论人们认为无现金商店不公平的原因。故B选项。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。由最后一段“In San Francisco, California, a law banning cashless stores was passed in May.”（在加利福尼亚州的旧金山，一项禁止无现金商店的法律在五月份通过。）可知，五月份通过的法律的目的是为了禁止无现金商店，故选B项。

Science can help you improve your study methods. For more than 100 years, psychologists have done research on which study habits work best. Here are 4 tips to improve your study habits.
Space out your studying
Nate Kornell, a psychologist at Williams College, thinks it’s a good idea to study the day before a big test. ___36___ . Instead, space out those study sessions. Kornell compares our memory to water in a cup. Try to refill the cup while it’s still full, and you can’t add much more water. Allow time between study sessions, and some of the material may drip out of your memory. But then you’ll be able to relearn it and learn more in your next study session.
Practice, practice, practice!
Musicians practice their instruments. Athletes practice sports skills. ___37___ “If you want to be able to remember information, the best thing you can do is practice,” says Katherine Rawson.
Test yourself
Scientist Nebel suggests. “ ___38___ Put questions on one side and the answers on the other side of the card and try to quiz yourself the way the teacher asks questions.” she adds. “It will be of great help.”
___39___
It’s hard to remember a string of facts and figures if you don’t push further. Ask why things are a certain way. How did they come about Why do they matter Psychologists call this elaboration. It’s taking class material and asking a lot of how and why questions about it. This helps you combine new information with other things you know. And it creates a bigger network in your brain of things that relate to one another. ___40___ .
A. Dig deeper
B. Try your best
C. Of course, nothing can replace studying with your mother
D. The same should go for learning
E. That larger network makes it easier to learn more and deeper
F. Create a pack of cards every time you learn new information
G. But research shows it’s a bad idea to force all your studying into that day

【38题详解】
根据下文“Put questions on one side and the answers on the other side of the card and try to quiz yourself the way the teacher asks questions.”she adds. “It will be of great help.””（把问题放在卡片的一边，把答案放在卡片的另一边，试着像老师问问题那样自问自答。”她补充道。“这会有很大的帮助。”）讲述了在卡片的两边分别写上问题和答案对于学习是很有帮助意义的。所以空处应说明可以利用卡片学习新知识。选项F“每次你学到新信息的时候都要制作一副卡片。”符合题意，故选F。
【39题详解】
根据下文“It’s hard to remember a string of facts and figures if you don’t push further. ”（如果你不进一步努力，就很难记住一连串的事实和数字。）可知，要记住一连串的事实和数字，就需要你进一步努力，选项A“深入挖掘。”选项中deeper与further形成对应，切题，故选A。
【40题详解】
根据前一句“And it creates a bigger network in your brain of things that relate to one another.”（它在你的大脑中创造了一个更大的，相互关联的事物网络。）可知，空处应讲述更大的网络的作用。E项“那个更大的网络使学习更多更深入变得更容易。”选项中“That larger network ”的指代前一句中的“ a bigger network”，切题，故选E。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明。主要介绍的是尽管竹子没有被广泛使用在建筑中，但竹子作为建筑材料方面有很多的优点。
【56题详解】
考查副词。句意：竹子被称为“穷人的材料”，即使在中国，它也不被广泛接受为现代建筑材料。分析句子结构可知，此处为副词作状语修饰动词accepted，wide的副词为widely意为“广泛地”符合句意。故填widely。
【57题详解】
考查谓语动词。句意：但竹子建造的房子几乎是最轻的，在抗震方面比“现代”材料要好得多。分析句子结构可知，此处为定语从句的谓语动词，根据主句中的谓语动词makes以及全文的语境，此处客观描述竹子作为建筑材料的特征，所以使用一般现在时，be动词无被动，主语which指代的先行词bamboo为名词单数。故填is。
【58题详解】
考查被动语态。句意：与在地震中几秒钟就可能被摧毁的“豆腐渣”建筑不同，竹子建筑更安全。分析句子结构可知，此空位于情态动词之后应为动词原形，destroy与句子主语that指代的先行词buildings之间为被动关系。故填be destroyed。
【59题详解】
考查形容词。句意：与在地震中几秒钟就可能被摧毁的“豆腐渣”建筑不同，竹子建筑更安全。分析句子结构可知，此处为形容词定语修饰名词building空前有副词much修饰，所以使用形容词比较级。故填safer。
【60题详解】
考查冠词。句意：INBAR指出，如果不采取适当行动，没有安全和健康住所的人数将随着人口增长而增加。分析句子结构可知，此处为固定短语the number of意为“……的数量”符合句意。故填the。”
【61题详解】
考查名词。句意：研究表明，竹子的强度非常好，和木头一样结实。分析句子结构可知，此处为名词作宾语，strong的名词为strength意为“强度”为不可数名词。故填strength。
【62题详解】
考查介词。句意：此外，由于竹子的轻质和良好的弹性，竹制建筑在抵抗地震方面非常出色。分析句子结构可知，此处为固定短语because of连后面的名词短语构成句子的原因状语。故填of。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：中国古人喜欢住在竹屋里。分析句子结构可知，此处为非谓语动词作定语，根据be made of意为“由……制成”可知，make与所修饰词houses之间为被动关系，所以使用过去分词形式。故填made。
【64题详解】
考查代词。句意：在云南省，一些当地人仍然住在竹屋里，这样可以挡风遮雨。分析句子结构可知，此处为protect的宾语，所以使用代词的宾格形式。故填them。
【65题详解】
考查定语从家。句意：在竹子资源丰富的浙江省，当地官员一直鼓励建筑师使用竹子设计建筑。分析句子结构可知，此处为连词引导的非限制性定语从句，从句中不缺主语和宾语，所以使用关系副词，先行词Zhejiang Province表地点。故填where。

Emma had two exams that day — physics and history. She really hated physics. It was her worst subject. Alice looked at her, and then looked away quickly. Emma thought Alice looked pleased, because she didn’t have a problem with physics, she didn’t have a problem with anything...Miss Perfect!
“I thought we were friends, but she hasn’t spoken to me for two weeks now. she promised to help me go over for the physics exam too, but then she’s forgotten all my calls and texts. And when I rang her house, her mum just told me she was busy.” Emma thought angrily. At that moment, Mr. Read asked all the students into the exam room.
Emma couldn’t answer some physics questions. Suddenly she saw Alice sitting two rows in front of her. Emma couldn’t believe it! Alice was holding her phone on her knee under the table and reading from it. Is that how Alice always got such good grades She felt really angry at Alice, and thought about telling the teacher, but...“Stop writing,” said Mr. Read and started to collect the exam papers. Oh no, Emma hadn’t answered two of the questions. She was going to fail again!
Emma wanted to talk to Alice at lunchtime, but she couldn’t find her anywhere. Emma went to the library to prepare for the history exam, which was her favorite. But she couldn’t concentrate. “Unfair! Alice was getting good grades by cheating all that time.” She thought about telling a teacher, but everyone would hate her if she did that. Just then, Mr. Read walked past her table. “Mr. Read...”
Emma was sitting behind Alice again in the history exam that afternoon. Mr. Read wanted her to look at Alice and agreed if she saw that Alice was cheating in the exam.

She was working on the last question when she saw that Alice had her phone under the table. Emma nodded to Mr. Read. Mr. Read went to Alice quietly and picked up Alice’s phone. All was clear, and Mr. Read asked her to leave the classroom. Alice walked out crying. Everyone was staring at her and Emma felt really relaxed.
Emma was walking towards the school gate when she saw Alice waiting for her there. “Emma, please wait.” Alice said, “I’m sorry I haven’t answered any of your calls, but my dad’s been ill for two weeks and had a heart operation today. During exams I was reading texts from my mum to see how it was going. I have explained to Mr. Read and he asked me to take the exam again. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you what was happening.” Emma couldn’t help crying, either. “You should have told me this earlier. Let me know if you have difficulties. We are true friends.”
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Alice和Emma是好朋友，Alice是大家眼中的完美小姐，因为她成绩好，没有任何问题，但是Emma的物理成绩却很糟糕。在一次考试中，Emma坐在Alice后面，她发现Alice在看手机，Emma认为她在作弊。她很纠结，不知道该不该告诉老师，这时，Read老师找到Emma，让她监视Alice，看看她是否在作弊，Emma答应了。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“当她看到Alice把手机放在桌子下面时，她正在准备最后一个问题。”可知，第一段可描写考试中Alice看手机，Emma发现后，向Read老师点头，示意Alice正在作弊，于是老师发现Alice正在看手机，要她离开教室。
②由第二段首句内容“Emma正向学校大门走去，这时她看见Alice在那里等她。”可知，第二段可描写Alice告诉Emma自己没有接她电话的原因，以及自己在考试时看手机的原因，二人消除误会。
