For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose theone that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)While I was in hospital, a friend recommended a popular online series of daily meditations(n.冥想,打坐;沉思), a “can’t afford to miss” in his mind. Mostly, the morning ones wereimpossible to do as the hospital routine starts at half past five, so I mostly listened the eveningones, which were very helpful. Once, however, I managed the morning one, which talked aboutthe importance of doing something or creating something which will survive us.The works of great poets and writers come to mind, but how many of us will write the nextDavid Copperfield, or Ode to Autumn Sporting triumphs also occur: the breaking of the fourminute mile for instance. But again, how many of us are great athletes So what can we do Shakespeare writes, “The evil men do lives after them; the good is oft interred (often buried)with their bones.” For once, however, I think Shakespeare is wrong. I think the good we do canlive after we have gone. Sir Terry Pratchett writes, “A man is not truly dead while his name is stillspoken,” and I think that is more true. Perhaps we cannot expect our name to be remembered forhundreds or thousands of years, but to be remembered with kindness and even thankfulness afterwe’ve gone is surely something to strive for.I had two grannies when I was growing up. One was my mother’s mother; the other was ourcousin’s grandmother on their father’s side. Our own grandmother died young, so this lovely ladyadopted us as her honorary grandchildren.Granny was the most lovely and loving lady you could imagine. There were always cakes inthe tin and a warm welcome whenever we visited, there were small presents at Christmas and onour birthdays, and we loved her dearly. It was only when I attended her funeral that I realized howfar her love extended: the church was packed, and tale after tale was told of her kindness. Hername was — and possibly still is — spoken long after her death.I wish I could say the same of my other grandmother, but I can’t. My mother talks about her,but I don’t; there is no point in talking about unkindness.When I announced my retirement, a couple of months ago, I was stunned to receive so manyemails and letters of thanks. My patients really appreciate all that I have done for them. That willlast after I’m gone and spread down through generations.56. Which of the following statements will the author probably agree with about the onlinemeditation A. The evening meditation are more important than the morning ones.B. The online meditation receive more attention in the evening.C. The morning meditation are difficult to use in daily life.D. The online meditation are worthy of the name. be worthy of 值得,配得上57. The author quoted Sir Terry Pratchett’s words in order to __________.A. support Shakespeare’s statement on the afterlife afterlife n.来世,死后的生活B. argue that greatness is the only way to be rememberedC. emphasize the importance of kindness to ordinary peopleD. criticize the idea that only evil deeds are remembered58. Which of the following statements it TRUE according to the passage A. The author’s granny on mother’s side was a kind person.B. Shakespeare believed the goodness fades far sooner than the evil.C. A man’s contribution is highly dependent on their achievements.D. People were happy to know the retirement of the author.59. We can most probably find this passage in a __________.A. magazine featuring famous athletesB. blog post by a doctor who recently retiredC. book about the importance of creating a legendD. medical journal discussing the benefits of meditation(B)Each one of us shares this planet with seven billion other individuals. And we all needtransportation. The majority of cars, motorcycles, boats and planes cause pollution. They are alsonoisy. This is a serious problem in many cities. So inventors are coming up with innovative ideasto try to reduce the pollution and noise.By LandIn many cities around the world, motorcycles are becoming increasingly popular. Currently,Vietnam has around 33 million motorcycles. China has almost 120 million. The convenience ofthese motorcycles comes at a cost. Air pollution is a growing problem. In large cities, people oftencomplain it is difficult to breathe. They also complain about the noise.To solve these problems, a U.S. company designed an environmentally friendly motorcycle.11It uses electricity as fuel. You can drive it for 40 miles (64 kilometers) before recharging thebattery.It is also quiet and fast-60 miles (96 kilometers) per hour. This makes it a good choice forgetting around a city.By WaterThe Italian city of Venice is a city with only a few roads. There are no cars in the city center.Instead of cars, water taxis and buses carry people along the city’s canals. The engines of theseboats are simple and cheap. However, they cause pollution, particularly to the water. This causesdamage to the city’s buildings.English mechanics Dick Strawbridge and Jem Stans designed a solar-powered water taxi. Thesolar panels charge three electric batteries. These, in turn, provide power to the engine. The watertaxi can carry six passengers. It can run for a day. In the future, solar taxis could be an alternativeto Venice’s current taxis.By AirDesigning an environmentally friendly airplane is a real challenge. Planes use an enormousamount of jet fuel. This means they cause significant air pollution, and they are very noisy. Somemajor airplane manufacturers have started to address the problems. They are using cleaner fuels,for example. However, Swiss engineers have gone one step further. They developed a solarairplane — the Solar Impulse. Solar panels cover its wings. These panels provide power to fourelectric motors and batteries. The batteries allow the plane to fly at night. This plane holds theworld record for the longest solar-powered flight — 985 miles (1541 kilometers) from Arizona toTexas in the United States.60. What do the three innovative ideas proposed have in common A. They aim to solve traffic problems in big cities.B. They use cleaner energy and cause less pollution.C. They aim to change traditional way of transporting goods.D. They are good will of developed countries to help developing countries.61. Which of the following statements is TRUE A. China owns the largest number of motorcycles.B. There are no cars in the center of Venice city.C. Solar-powered water taxi can run for a day with one battery at work.D. The newly designed motorcycle can drive 60 miles after being charged.62. According to the passage, the distinguished merit of Solar Impulse is ________.A. lighter wingsB. less noiseC. powerful batteriesD. longest solar panelsSection CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Conflict in LiteratureA. So how do you best create conflict B. From there, we can break down(分解) conflict into seven different examples.C. By understanding what stands between characters and their goals, what can we do next D. An internal conflict tends to be one in which the main character struggles with himself, such asa decision he needs to make or a weakness he has to overcome.E. When a conflict is resolved and the reader discovers which force or character succeeds, itcreates a sense of closure.F. It is a necessary element of any story, driving the story forward and forcing the reader to stay upall night reading in hopes of some sort of closure.What makes a book or movie exciting What makes you want to keep reading to find outwhat happens or stay until the end of the movie Conflict. Yes, conflict. ____63____ Most storiesare written to have characters, a setting and a plot, but what sets apart a truly great story from theone that might not finish reading is conflict.Basically, we can define conflict as a struggle between opposing forces — two characters, acharacter and nature, or even an internal struggle — conflict provides a level of worry into a storythat engages the reader and makes him or her invested in finding out what happens. ____64____First, you need to understand the different types of conflict, which can essentially be brokendown into two categories: internal and external conflict. ____65____ An external conflict is one inwhich the character faces a challenge with an external force, like another character, an act ofnature, or even society.____66____ Most stories focus on one particular conflict, but it’s also possible that a storycan contain more than one.IV.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose theone that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)【导语】本文是夹叙夹议文。讲述了作者认为当一个人的名字还在被人念叨时,他并没有真正死去,而只要我们多做善事,会死后继续传承下去,代代相传。While I was in hospital, a friend recommended a popular online series of daily meditations(n.冥想,打坐;沉思), a “can’t afford to miss” in his mind. Mostly, the morning ones wereimpossible to do as the hospital routine starts at half past five, so I mostly listened the eveningones, which were very helpful. Once, however, I managed the morning one, which talked aboutthe importance of doing something or creating something which will survive us.The works of great poets and writers come to mind, but how many of us will write the nextDavid Copperfield, or Ode to Autumn Sporting triumphs also occur: the breaking of the fourminute mile for instance. But again, how many of us are great athletes So what can we do Shakespeare writes, “The evil men do lives after them; the good is oft interred (often buried)with their bones.” For once, however, I think Shakespeare is wrong. I think the good we do canlive after we have gone. Sir Terry Pratchett writes, “A man is not truly dead while his name is stillspoken,” and I think that is more true. Perhaps we cannot expect our name to be remembered forhundreds or thousands of years, but to be remembered with kindness and even thankfulness afterwe’ve gone is surely something to strive for.I had two grannies when I was growing up. One was my mother’s mother; the other was ourcousin’s grandmother on their father’s side. Our own grandmother died young, so this lovely ladyadopted us as her honorary grandchildren.Granny was the most lovely and loving lady you could imagine. There were always cakes inthe tin and a warm welcome whenever we visited, there were small presents at Christmas and onour birthdays, and we loved her dearly. It was only when I attended her funeral that I realized howfar her love extended: the church was packed, and tale after tale was told of her kindness. Hername was — and possibly still is — spoken long after her death.I wish I could say the same of my other grandmother, but I can’t. My mother talks about her,but I don’t; there is no point in talking about unkindness.When I announced my retirement, a couple of months ago, I was stunned to receive so manyemails and letters of thanks. My patients really appreciate all that I have done for them. That willlast after I’m gone and spread down through generations.56. Which of the following statements will the author probably agree with about the onlinemeditation A. The evening meditation are more important than the morning ones.B. The online meditation receive more attention in the evening.C. The morning meditation are difficult to use in daily life.D. The online meditation are worthy of the name. be worthy of 值得,配得上【56 题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“While I was in hospital, a friend recommended a popular online seriesof daily meditations, a “can’t afford to miss” in his mind. Mostly, the morning ones wereimpossible to do as the hospital routine starts at half past five, so I mostly listened the eveningones, which were very helpful.(在我住院期间,一位朋友向我推荐了一个网上流行的每日冥想系列,在他看来,这是一个“不能错过的”。大多数情况下,早上的是不可能做的,因为医院的日常工作在五点半开始,所以我主要听晚上的,这很有帮助)”可知,作者认为在线冥想是名副其实的。故选 D 项。57.

I thinkthe good we do can live after we have gone. Sir Terry Pratchett writes, “A man is not truly dead10while his name is still spoken,” and I think that is more true.(莎士比亚写道:“恶人死后永生; 好人往往和他们的尸骨一起被埋葬。”然而,这一次,我认为莎士比亚错了。我认为我们所做的好事可以在我们死后继续存在。特里·普拉切特爵士写道:“当一个人的名字还在被人念叨时,他并没有真正死去。”我认为这句话更贴切)”可知,作者引用特里·普拉切特爵士的话是为了批评那种认为只有邪恶的行为才会被记住的观点。故选 D 项。58. Which of the following statements it TRUE according to the passage A. The author’s granny on mother’s side was a kind person.B. Shakespeare believed the goodness fades far sooner than the evil.C. A man’s contribution is highly dependent on their achievements.D. People were happy to know the retirement of the author.【58 题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“Shakespeare writes, “The evil men do lives after them; the good is oftinterred (often buried) with their bones.”(莎士比亚写道:“恶人死后永生; 好人往往和他们的尸骨一起被埋葬。”)”可知,莎士比亚相信善比恶消逝得更快。故选 B 项。59. We can most probably find this passage in a __________.A. magazine featuring famous athletesB. blog post by a doctor who recently retiredC. book about the importance of creating a legendD. medical journal discussing the benefits of meditation【59 题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段“Once, however, I managed the morning one, which talked about theimportance of doing something or creating something which will survive us.(然而,有一次,我读到了早晨的那篇,它讲的是做一些事情或创造一些东西的重要性,这些事情将使我们生存下去)”最后一段“When I announced my retirement, a couple of months ago, I was stunned toreceive so many emails and letters of thanks. My patients really appreciate all that I have done forthem.(几个月前,当我宣布退休时,我震惊地收到了如此多的电子邮件和感谢信。我的病人真的很感激我为他们所做的一切)”以及纵观全文,可知,这是一位退休医生的人生感悟,所以可能是一个最近退休的医生写的博客。故选 B 项。(B)【导语】本文是应用文。介绍了几款新的减少污染和噪音的交通工具。Each one of us shares this planet with seven billion other individuals. And we all needtransportation. The majority of cars, motorcycles, boats and planes cause pollution. They are alsonoisy. This is a serious problem in many cities. So inventors are coming up with innovative ideasto try to reduce the pollution and noise.By LandIn many cities around the world, motorcycles are becoming increasingly popular. Currently,Vietnam has around 33 million motorcycles. China has almost 120 million. The convenience ofthese motorcycles comes at a cost. Air pollution is a growing problem. In large cities, people oftencomplain it is difficult to breathe. They also complain about the noise.To solve these problems, a U.S. company designed an environmentally friendly motorcycle.11It uses electricity as fuel. You can drive it for 40 miles (64 kilometers) before recharging thebattery.It is also quiet and fast-60 miles (96 kilometers) per hour. This makes it a good choice forgetting around a city.By WaterThe Italian city of Venice is a city with only a few roads. There are no cars in the city center.Instead of cars, water taxis and buses carry people along the city’s canals. The engines of theseboats are simple and cheap. However, they cause pollution, particularly to the water. This causesdamage to the city’s buildings.English mechanics Dick Strawbridge and Jem Stans designed a solar-powered water taxi. Thesolar panels charge three electric batteries. These, in turn, provide power to the engine. The watertaxi can carry six passengers. It can run for a day. In the future, solar taxis could be an alternativeto Venice’s current taxis.By AirDesigning an environmentally friendly airplane is a real challenge. Planes use an enormousamount of jet fuel. This means they cause significant air pollution, and they are very noisy. Somemajor airplane manufacturers have started to address the problems. They are using cleaner fuels,for example. However, Swiss engineers have gone one step further. They developed a solarairplane — the Solar Impulse. Solar panels cover its wings. These panels provide power to fourelectric motors and batteries. The batteries allow the plane to fly at night. This plane holds theworld record for the longest solar-powered flight — 985 miles (1541 kilometers) from Arizona toTexas in the United States.60. What do the three innovative ideas proposed have in common A. They aim to solve traffic problems in big cities.B. They use cleaner energy and cause less pollution.C. They aim to change traditional way of transporting goods.D. They are good will of developed countries to help developing countries.【60 题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“And we all need transportation. The majority of cars, motorcycles,boats and planes cause pollution. They are also noisy. This is a serious problem in many cities. Soinventors are coming up with innovative ideas to try to reduce the pollution and noise.(我们都需要交通工具。大多数汽车、摩托车、船和飞机造成污染。它们也很吵。这在许多城市都是一个严重的问题。因此,发明家们想出了创新的想法,试图减少污染和噪音)”,By Land 下第二段的“It uses electricity as fuel. (它使用电力作为燃料)”,By Water 下第二段的“The solarpanels charge three electric batteries. These, in turn, provide power to the engine.(太阳能电池板为三个电池充电。这些反过来又为发动机提供动力)”和 By Air 下的“Some major airplanemanufacturers have started to address the problems. They are using cleaner fuels, for example. (一些主要的飞机制造商已经开始着手解决这些问题。例如,他们正在使用更清洁的燃料)”可知,提出的三个创新想法,它们使用更清洁的能源,造成更少的污染。故选 B 项。61. Which of the following statements is TRUE A. China owns the largest number of motorcycles.B. There are no cars in the center of Venice city.C. Solar-powered water taxi can run for a day with one battery at work.D. The newly designed motorcycle can drive 60 miles after being charged.【61 题详解】细节理解题。根据小标题 By Water 下第一段的“The Italian city of Venice is a city with only afew roads. There are no cars in the city center.(意大利城市威尼斯是一个只有几条道路的城市。市中心没有汽车)”可知,威尼斯市中心没有汽车,B 项正确。故选 B 项。62. According to the passage, the distinguished merit of Solar Impulse is ________.A. lighter wingsB. less noiseC. powerful batteriesD. longest solar panels【62 题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“They developed a solar airplane — the Solar Impulse. Solar panelscover its wings. These panels provide power to four electric motors and batteries. The batteriesallow the plane to fly at night. This plane holds the world record for the longest solar-poweredflight—985 miles (1541 kilometers) from Arizona to Texas in the United States.(他们开发了一架太阳能飞机——“阳光动力号”。太阳能电池板覆盖着它的翅膀。这些面板为四个电动机和电池提供电力。电池使飞机能在夜间飞行。这架飞机保持着最长太阳能飞行的世界纪录——从美国亚利桑那州到德克萨斯州,飞行了 985 英里(1541 公里))”可推知,阳光动力号的电池使飞机能在夜间飞行一整夜,所以它有强大的电池。故选 C 项。Section CDirections: Read the following passage.
