Located in the northeast of Italy, Venice is well-known for its cultural treasures, romantic atmosphere and unusual living-on-water experience. The city spreads out over 118 islands, which are linked by more than 400 bridges, in the Venetian Lagoon.
Venice’s historical center consists of six regions. San Polo in the middle and San Marco in the south, the busiest main regions, are linked by the Rialto Bridge. The famous stone arch bridge crosses Venice’s main waterway — the Grand Canal. When night falls, many tourists enjoy dinner at the outside tables by the Grand Canal while watching colorfully lit boats going by.
Near the end of the S-shaped Grand Canal lies St. Mark’s Basilica, a must-see. Inside, beautiful mosaics tell stories of Bible figures. Nearby are the Doges Palace and the Bridge of Sighs. These were made famous by Lord Byron, “I stood in Venice on the Bridge of Sighs, a palace and prison on each hand.” Legend has it that if a couple passes under the bridge, their love will last forever.
In the square outside the Basilica, lovers of literature can sit at Caffe Florian, regarded as the oldest coffee house in Europe. Charles Dickens, Henry James as well as Lord Byron enjoyed the wonderful drink here.
Art lovers should buy a museum pass and visit some of the city’s unusual museums. They can view works by Venetian masters like Giovanni, Titian and Tintoretto.
On five small islands in the Venetian Lagoon, Murano has been home to glass-makers since 1291. Tourists can visit factories, studios and the Glass Museum. Glass artists produce everything from simple souvenir pieces to beautiful works of modern art. Only glassworks made using traditional methods on Murano can be called Murano Glass. The nearby island of Burano is famous for lace making and colorful houses. Looking at the colorful houses and kaleidoscopic streets makes people feel as if they were walking in the fairy tale.
The City of Water promises beauty of all kinds, and it definitely lives up to its promise.
8. Why does the author mention Lord Byron’s words
A To introduce the famous British poet.
B. To explain why the two places are famous.

10. What is Murano well-known for

Counterfeit (假的) medicines are a widespread problem in developing countries. Like other counterfeits, they look like real products. But counterfeit drugs may contain too little or none of the active ingredients of the real thing.
People do not get the medicine they need. And in some cases, counterfeits cause death. Twenty children in Bangladesh died last year after being given acetaminophen (对乙酰氨基酚). The medications contained ingredients that looked, smelled and tasted like the real thing. The medicine was produced by a local drug company that used a dangerous substitute to save money.
The problem of counterfeit medicines is especially serious in Africa, Asia and Latin America. The WHO estimates that up to thirty percent of medicines on sale in many of those countries are counterfeit. The problem is less widespread among industrialized countries. The WHO says counterfeits make up less than one percent of the illegal drug market in countries like the United States, Canada, Japan and New Zealand.
But the agency also says as much as fifty percent of the medicine sold on the Internet is counterfeit.
Much is being done to fight counterfeit drugs. Several companies are developing ways to make counterfeits easier to identify. And there are existing methods, like a machine that can quickly identify chemicals in pills to confirm if the pills are real. Other ideas include things like special tracking codes for drug packages. People could send a text message with the code and get a message back, which proves that what they bought is listed in a database. Some drug makers and other companies put three-dimensional images called holograms (全息图) on their products as a security device.
12. Last year twenty children in Bangladesh died because of _________.
A. unreal drugs
B. online medicines
C. acetaminophen
D. unclean water
13. We can draw a conclusion from the passage that___________ .
A. it is very cheap and convenient to buy medicines online
B. we had better not buy medicines online
C. more and more people will buy products online
D. medicine companies don’t pay much attention to counterfeit drugs
14. What is the main idea of the last paragraph
A. It reveals (揭露) the reasons why counterfeit drugs are widespread.
B. Special tracking codes for drug packages are used to identify counterfeits.
C. It shows the danger of counterfeit drugs.
D. Some measures are being taken to fight counterfeit drugs.
15. Which of the following country may have serious problems of counterfeit medicines
A. Canada. B. India.
C. New Zealand. D. Japan.

Smith almost messed up a “big time”. He was driving his car and coming back from the dentist with his 5-year-old Justus when they saw a homeless man in the street. Smith said on Facebook that he wanted to give the man some money, but didn’t have any cash. His son Justus noticed the man as well. And then it happened.
Unexpectedly, Justus insisted that his father give the man the 30 cents he had in his pocket. Smith said, “It’s almost as if he heard my thoughts and responded out loud.”
“I was more than happy he wanted to do this with joy, but honestly I was hesitant. I didn’t want to give this man who clearly needed all the help he could get, just 30 cents. My own pride and thoughts of the homeless individual’s unknown reaction to receiving just 30 cents was standing in the way,” said Smith. “I quickly realized that I was the only problem in this situation and that the traffic light would turn green at any second.”
Smith recalled that he almost told his son to wait to give until they at least had one dollar. He almost told his son that what he had wasn’t enough. He almost showed him that what he saw as a good thing wasn’t good enough to make a difference in someone’s life. He almost taught Justus that pride was more important than helping another human.
However, the father told himself to get over the strange thought. He remembered that was what he has been teaching Justus. And now that Justus wanted to give everything he had to offer at that moment, he shouldn’t let his selfishness ruin a great memory and a good teaching moment. Smith said, “Leading by example is what I have been teaching him, so now let him give what he can to this man.”
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
So the father quickly denied (否定)that foolish idea.

【4题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句“Pat O’Burke was a poor Irishman with a large family, and one morning, waking up very early from cold and hunger”（帕特·奥伯克是一个贫穷的爱尔兰人，有一个大家庭。一天早上，他很早就从寒冷和饥饿中醒来）和最后一段“I just came out to see if I could get a breakfast for my appetite.”The whole crowed burst into laughter at Pat’s ready wit(机智), and with a smile Lord Northwood walked on, leaving Pat to try his luck with the rabbits.”（我只是出来看看能不能吃到一顿满足我胃口的早餐。”看到帕特的机智，人群中爆发出一阵笑声。诺斯伍德勋爵笑着走开了，留下帕特去碰碰运气）可知Pat O’Burke非常机智，他只是想找一些吃的东西。故C项正确。

Located in the northeast of Italy, Venice is well-known for its cultural treasures, romantic atmosphere and unusual living-on-water experience. The city spreads out over 118 islands, which are linked by more than 400 bridges, in the Venetian Lagoon.
Venice’s historical center consists of six regions. San Polo in the middle and San Marco in the south, the busiest main regions, are linked by the Rialto Bridge. The famous stone arch bridge crosses Venice’s main waterway — the Grand Canal. When night falls, many tourists enjoy dinner at the outside tables by the Grand Canal while watching colorfully lit boats going by.
Near the end of the S-shaped Grand Canal lies St. Mark’s Basilica, a must-see. Inside, beautiful mosaics tell stories of Bible figures. Nearby are the Doges Palace and the Bridge of Sighs. These were made famous by Lord Byron, “I stood in Venice on the Bridge of Sighs, a palace and prison on each hand.” Legend has it that if a couple passes under the bridge, their love will last forever.
In the square outside the Basilica lovers of literature can sit at Caffe Florian, regarded as the oldest coffee house in Europe. Charles Dickens, Henry James as well as Lord Byron enjoyed the wonderful drink here.
Art lovers should buy a museum pass and visit some of the city’s unusual museums. They can view works by Venetian masters like Giovanni, Titian and Tintoretto.
On five small islands in the Venetian Lagoon, Murano has been home to glass-makers since 1291. Tourists can visit factories, studios and the Glass Museum. Glass artists produce everything from simple souvenir pieces to beautiful works of modern art. Only glassworks made using traditional methods on Murano can be called Murano Glass. The nearby island of Burano is famous for lace making and colorful houses. Looking at the colorful houses and kaleidoscopic streets makes people feel as if they were walking in the fairy tale.
The City of Water promises beauty of all kinds, and it definitely lives up to its promise.
8. Why does the author mention Lord Byron’s words
A. To introduce the famous British poet.
B. To explain why the two places are famous.
C. To show why St. Mark’s Basilica is a must-see.

Counterfeit (假的) medicines are a widespread problem in developing countries. Like other counterfeits, they look like real products. But counterfeit drugs may contain too little or none of the active ingredients of the real thing.
People do not get the medicine they need. And in some cases, counterfeits cause death. Twenty children in Bangladesh died last year after being given acetaminophen (对乙酰氨基酚). The medications contained ingredients that looked, smelled and tasted like the real thing. The medicine was produced by a local drug company that used a dangerous substitute to save money.
The problem of counterfeit medicines is especially serious in Africa, Asia and Latin America. The WHO estimates that up to thirty percent of medicines on sale in many of those countries are counterfeit. The problem is less widespread among industrialized countries. The WHO says counterfeits make up less than one percent of the illegal drug market in countries like the United States, Canada, Japan and New Zealand.
But the agency also says as much as fifty percent of the medicine sold on the Internet is counterfeit.
Much is being done to fight counterfeit drugs. Several companies are developing ways to make counterfeits easier to identify. And there are existing methods, like a machine that can quickly identify chemicals in pills to confirm if the pills are real. Other ideas include things like special tracking codes for drug packages. People could send a text message with the code and get a message back, which proves that what they bought is listed in a database. Some drug makers and other companies put three-dimensional images called holograms (全息图) on their products as a security device.
12. Last year twenty children in Bangladesh died because of _________.
A. unreal drugs
B. online medicines
C. acetaminophen
D. unclean water
13. We can draw a conclusion from the passage that___________ .
A. it is very cheap and convenient to buy medicines online
B. we had better not buy medicines online
C. more and more people will buy products online
D. medicine companies don’t pay much attention to counterfeit drugs
14. What is the main idea of the last paragraph
A. It reveals (揭露) the reasons why counterfeit drugs are widespread.
B. Special tracking codes for drug packages are used to identify counterfeits.
C It shows the danger of counterfeit drugs.
D. Some measures are being taken to fight counterfeit drugs.
15. Which of the following country may have serious problems of counterfeit medicines
A. Canada. B. India.
C New Zealand. D. Japan.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. B
【解析】

【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Twenty children in Bangladesh died last year after being given acetaminophen (对乙酰氨基酚). The medications contained ingredients that looked, smelled and tasted like the real thing. (去年，孟加拉国有20名儿童在服用对乙酰氨基酚后死亡。这些药物的成分在外观、气味和味道上都与真品相似)”可知，孟加拉国死亡的20个小孩是由于服用了假药才死亡的。故选A项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“But the agency also says as much as fifty percent of the medicine sold on the Internet is counterfeit. (但该机构还表示，互联网上销售的药品中有多达50%是假药)”可知，网上所买的药有一半都是假的。由此推知，我们最好不要再网上买药。故选B项。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的“Much is being done to fight counterfeit drugs. (在打击假药方面正在做很多工作)”可知，为了和假药做斗争，很多事情正在被做，从第二句开始列举了多个具体事例，所以本段主要介绍人们和假药斗争所采取的措施。故选D项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The WHO says counterfeits make up less than one percent of the illegal drug market in countries like the United States, Canada, Japan and New Zealand. (世界卫生组织表示，在美国、加拿大、日本和新西兰等国，假药占非法药物市场的比例不到1%)”可知，在美国、加拿大、日本和新西兰假药非常少，所以选项里的印度可能是这四个国家里假药比较多的国家。故选B项。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Smith almost messed up a “big time”. He was driving his car and coming back from the dentist with his 5-year-old Justus when they saw a homeless man in the street. Smith said on Facebook that he wanted to give the man some money, but didn’t have any cash. His son Justus noticed the man as well. And then it happened.
Unexpectedly, Justus insisted that his father give the man the 30 cents he had in his pocket. Smith said, “It’s almost as if he heard my thoughts and responded out loud.”
“I was more than happy he wanted to do this with joy, but honestly I was hesitant. I didn’t want to give this man who clearly needed all the help he could get, just 30 cents. My own pride and thoughts of the homeless individual’s unknown reaction to receiving just 30 cents was standing in the way,” said Smith. “I quickly realized that I was the only problem in this situation and that the traffic light would turn green at any second.”
Smith recalled that he almost told his son to wait to give until they at least had one dollar. He almost told his son that what he had wasn’t enough. He almost showed him that what he saw as a good thing wasn’t good enough to make a difference in someone’s life. He almost taught Justus that pride was more important than helping another human.
However, the father told himself to get over the strange thought. He remembered that was what he has been teaching Justus. And now that Justus wanted to give everything he had to offer at that moment, he shouldn’t let his selfishness ruin a great memory and a good teaching moment. Smith said, “Leading by example is what I have been teaching him, so now let him give what he can to this man.”

【答案】参考范文：
So the father quickly denied (否定)that foolish idea. He drove the car closer to the man and then rolled down the window. He told the man he didn’t have any cash, but his son back there wanted to give him everything he had. After hearing what Smith said, the smile on that man’s face lit up the street. The man said to Justus, “Thank you so much!” Justus smiled back. The only thing that matched the brightness of the man’s smile was the bigger smile on the boy’s face!
Then a chain reaction of kindness started. Behind them, other people, who witnessed the warm scene, rolled down their windows to donate, too. The little boy, Justus, without even realizing it, reminded his father and other adults of kindness by his action. Actually, kindness is always about the heart. It doesn’t matter how much you have or how little. Giving love and kindness will often help others. The help is always more than we think.
