【导语】本文讲述了每周二的例行独奏提问，学生们都很害怕被提问到，作者内心中充满了恐惧，但是每次都没有逃掉。在一次被提问独奏时，独奏很成功，得到了老师的满意。
【16题】
句意：当Fogarty老师把目光掠过他们时，他们才敢再次呼吸。
talk谈论；play玩；practice练习；breathe呼吸。根据前文“Mr. Fogarty slowly looked over the rows of boys, each holding his breath and praying (祈祷) it’s not his turn.”可知，当老师把目光看向他们时，他们怕得不敢呼吸，当老师把目光越过他们时他们才敢再次呼吸。这里描述学生们的紧张情况。故选D。
【17题】
句意：这就是我每周二在爵士乐练习中所经历的。
thought about考虑；showed off炫耀；went through经历；looked forward to盼望。根据“every Tuesday during jazz practice.”可知，每周二都要进行爵士练习，因此每周二都要经历这样的时刻，故选C。
【18题】
句意：我在练习的时候感觉很好，直到我们每个人都要在所有人的注视下站起来独自演奏乐器。
until 直到；when 当……时；though 虽然，尽管；because因为。根据“ I was fine during practice...it’s time for each of us to stand and play our instrument alone”可知，练习时感觉良好的情况直到需要单独弹奏时良好的感觉消失，故选A。
【19题】
句意：我总是祈祷Fogarty老师忘记我，但他从来没有。
remember记得；forget忘记；help帮助；guide指导。根据上文“His eyes land on me and my heart jumps.”可知作者害怕被要求独奏，故可以推测希望老师把自己忘掉而不再提问自己。故选B。
【20题】
句意：然而，他每次都把我叫到众人面前来。
Because因为；Instead反而；So所以；Anyway无论如何。前文“I always pray for Mr Fogarty to forget me,”与“he calls me out in front of everyone, every time.”之间是转折关系，故选B。
【21题】
句意：Fogarty老师高声说：“下一个是你。”
alone独自一人的；last最后的；first第一个；next下一个的，接下来的。根据“I prayed that the kid before me would never stop”可知，作者前面还有一个学生，所以作者是下一个演奏者。故选D。
【22题】
句意：他知道每个星期的这个时候我有多害怕，而且在某种程度上，看到我流汗让他很幸灾乐祸。
valued重视； hated讨厌；feared害怕；enjoyed享受。根据下一段“I pray that the kid before me will never stop when he finishes his solo（独奏曲）.”可知，作者希望永远不要轮到自己去独奏，因此对于老师点到他这件事内心是非常恐惧害怕的，故选C。
【23题】
句意：他知道每个星期的这个时候我有多害怕，而且在某种程度上，看到我流汗让他很幸灾乐祸。
sadness悲伤；joy快乐；treasure宝藏；pride骄傲。根据“My partner smiles.”可知，作者的同伴对于其窘境是幸灾乐祸的，故选B。
【24题】
句意：我站起来的时候，我的心跳得很厉害，几乎不能呼吸。
nearly将近；never从不；hardly几乎不；seldom很少。根据“My heart beats so hard”可知，作者非常紧张，因此是几乎不能呼吸，故选C。
【25题】
句意：我尽可能长时间地拿着它们，然后我看着乐谱，希望能遵循那些告诉我该怎么做的音符的安全模式来弹奏。
follow遵循；form形成；practice 练习； show展示。根据上文可知，轮到作者弹奏时他非常紧张，因此希望按照安全模式的音符来弹奏，故选A。
【26题】
句意：突然，乐谱上的音符开始向我扑来，每一个音符都来的如此之快，我都不确定该先弹哪一个。
afraid害怕的；worried担忧的；amazed惊奇的；sure确定的。根据“each coming so fast I was not... which to play first. So I played them all. ”可知，每一个音符都来的如此之快，导致作者不确定先弹哪个，故选D。
【27题】
句意：我脑子里都是音符，这些音符移动的如此快以至于我没有时间考虑接下来弹奏什么。
look up向上看；think about考虑；pick out挑出；look out小心。根据“they’re moving so fast that I didn’t have time to...what to play next.”可知，速度太快以至于作者无暇思考，故选B。
【28题】
句意：我太沉迷于我的独奏了，以至于我都没有注意到我已经演奏了多长时间。
understand理解；mind介意；notice注意到；discover发现。根据“so caught up in my solo that I didn’t... how long I had been playing”可知，作者沉迷于自己的独奏，所以没注意自己弹奏了很长时间，故选C。
【29题】
句意：Fogarty先生给了我一个信号，我突然停下来。
stopped停止；laughed大笑；cried哭；fell摔倒。根据下文“free my hands from the saxophone”可知，作者在老师的暗示下停了下来。故选A。
【30题】
句意：我把手从萨克斯管中解放出来，萨克斯管在我跳舞的手指上仍然是温暖的。
unskilled不熟练的；strong强壮的；helpless无助的；dancing舞动的。在停下来之前作者一直在弹奏，所以是舞动的手指。故选D。

Ancient art doesn’t have to be boring. Technology in the 21st century can help to bring it to life by combining the best of the old and the new. Scientists digitized (数码化) the famous painting Along the River During the Qingming Festival by Chinese artist Zhang Zeduan.
Along the River During the Qingming Festival
The original painting shows life during the Northern Song period and it includes many details of ancient Chinese customs, lifestyles and technology.
_________ Farmers work in the fields, sailors move around their boats and people eat and do business in restaurants. Parts of the background are also animated (做成动画). You can see the wind blowing through the trees and across the water. These animations perfectly combine modern technology and ancient art.
Digital technology allows today’s artists to express their ideas in ways that ancient artists would not believe possible. Techniques such as animation and 3D digital projection (投影) make art come alive.
Dunhuang Cave Paintings

Dunhuang Caves, which are protected as ancient treasures in the Gobi desert in Northwest China, are filled with paintings and sculptures with lasting value. This artwork was created over a period of around 1,000 years.
The good news is for art lovers who cannot travel and for the caves. Scientists have created a 360-degree, 3D digital projection of the caves, which makes the artwork come alive. There is also a function that lets viewers zoom in and enjoy the paintings and sculptures in greater detail.
Digitizing ancient art allows us to explore the ancient practices. It also makes the whole world understand the art while protecting the original artworks for the future.
34. Which sentence may be the best to fill in the “_________”
A. In the digital painting, a lot of these details are animated.
B. In the digital painting, a lot of these scenes are well known.

36. From the passage, we can infer that _________.
A. studying ancient art as much as possible is very necessary

C. protecting the ancient artworks is more important than developing technology
D. more ancient artworks will be protected better with technology in the future
37. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage
A. Enjoying Ancient Art B. Protecting Modern Technology
C. Digitizing Ancient Art D. Understanding Modern Technology
【答案】34. A35. B36. D37. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了数字化技术可以帮助我们探索古代艺术品的奥妙，同时也使它们得到更好的保护。
【34题】
推理判断题。根据“Farmers work in the fields, sailors move around their boats and people eat and do business in restaurants. Parts of the background are also animated (做成动画).”可知，此处是指作品里很多地方都是动画化的，选项A“在数字绘画中，很多细节都是动画。”符合语境，故选A。
【35题】
词义猜测题。根据“There is also a function that lets viewers zoom in and enjoy the paintings and sculptures in greater detail.”可知，让观众放大并更详细地欣赏绘画和雕塑，所以“zoom in”表示“近距离观察物体”，故选B。
【36题】
推理判断题。根据“Digitizing ancient art allows us to explore the ancient practices. It also makes the whole world understand the art while protecting the original artworks for the future.”可推知，未来会有更多珍贵的古代艺术品通过技术得到更好的保护，故选D。

“Hurry up, Kyle,” Dad called. “We need to leave for the swim-team tryouts!”
Kyle sat sadly on his bed. He liked swimming, but he was afraid he wouldn’t be fast enough to impress the coach. And he didn’t want to embarrass himself.
“I changed my mind,” he shouted back. “I’ve decided not to go.”
Now Kyle heard his father’s footsteps on the staircase (楼梯). Dad walked into Kyle’s room. “Why not ” he asked. “I thought you enjoyed swimming.”
“I do, but...”
“... but you’re afraid you won’t make the team, right ”
Kyle looked up. How had Dad guessed
“Listen,” Dad said. “You’re probably afraid, but why not at least have the coach time (计时) you There’s nothing to lose by trying, even if you don’t make the team. And who knows You might even surprise yourself.”
Kyle considered that for a short time. “Okay, I guess I’ll go,” he finally said.
Half an hour later, Kyle was anxiously waiting with everyone else who wanted to try out. He hated the idea of disappointing his father, so when the coach called his name, he forced himself to the edge (边缘) of the swimming pool. The coach blew his whistle (哨子) and Kyle jumped in, swimming through the water as quickly as he could. When he reached the other side of the pool, he held his head up and took the steel part at the pool’s edge, shaking his wet hair out of his eyes. He climbed out of the water and returned to where the coach was standing.
“How did I do ” he asked in a low voice.
The coach looked at his stopwatch and then smiled at Kyle. “You had a wonderful time! In fact, you got one of the fastest times I’ve seen today. You’ll do a fantastic job on the swim team.”
38. What did Kyle worry
A. He couldn’t change his decision. B. He wouldn’t be selected for the team.
C. He couldn’t keep his interest in swim. D. He wouldn’t be the fastest swimmer.
39. What was the purpose of Dad’s words
A. To persuade Kyle to try out. B. To calm Kyle down.
C. To pass on the coach’s message. D. To cheer the coach up.
40. How did Kyle feel when he climbed out of the swimming pool
A. Proud. B. Glad. C. Angry. D. Nervous.
41. Which situation might be similar to Kyle’s experience
A. Adam refused to swim and let his father down.

C. John was worried about a test but got a good grade.
D. Tom tried to solve the problem but without a better result.

【39题】
推理判断题。根据“You’re probably afraid, but why not at least have the coach time (计时) you There’s nothing to lose by trying, even if you don’t make the team. And who knows You might even surprise yourself.”可知，父亲认为即使没有入选球队，尝试也不会有什么损失，甚至可能会让自己大吃一惊。由此可知父亲话目的是劝说Kyle去尝试。故选A。

Governments around the world are pushing for an end to plastic straws (吸管) and bags. More and more businesses are changing to paper products. Using paper is considered to be better than plastic. However, it is harmful to the environment, too.
Firstly, paper bags and straws are made from trees. Trees, as you know, are good for the environment. They can slow down climate change. An increase in the use of paper bags can cause more deforestation (毁林).
Secondly, the production of paper things requires more energy and water. About 10 percent more energy and four times as much water is used to produce a paper bag than a plastic one. You might say that we can use recycled paper to save that energy and water. This seems to be a good idea. However, it takes even more energy and water to go through the recycling process (过程) than to make a newspaper bag. Products made from recycled paper are also often short-lived.
Furthermore, paper products are heavier than plastic ones. That means they require more fuel to transport. Seven trucks are needed to transport two million paper bags, while only one truck is needed to transport the same number of plastic bags. The increased weight also leads to a larger amount of waste once the bags are thrown away.
Paper products are actually a lose-lose for both the environment and businesses. They are more expensive than plastic products. A paper straw costs about 5 to 12 cents, while a plastic one usually costs only about 2 cents.
The most environment-friendly way is to avoid single-use things altogether. Products like glass water bottles and steel straws can be used over and over again. They are much better than either paper products or plastic products. By increasing the use of these items, you can greatly reduce your throwaway waste and truly make our earth a greener place!
42. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph I refer to
A. using plastic straws. B. using plastic bags. C. using paper products. D. using single-use things.
43. What does the writer think of the recycled paper
A. It saves energy and water. B. It seems not to be a good idea.
C. It is better than single-use paper. D. It’s easy to make by recycling process.
44. What is the writer’s main purpose of writing this passage
A. To introduce the disadvantages of paper products.
B. To call on using products in an environment-friendly way.
C. To compare paper products with plastic products.
D. To explain why paper products are bad for the environment.
45. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage
A. B. C. D.
【答案】42. C43. B44. B45. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了出于对保护环境的考虑，纸制品和塑料制品都不要用，尤其是纸制品，最环保的解决方案是完全避免使用一次性产品。
【42题】
词义猜测题。根据“More and more businesses are changing to paper products. Using paper is considered to be better than plastic.”可知越来越多的企业正在转向纸制品，因为使用纸张被认为比塑料更好。因此此处说的是使用纸制品。故选C。
【43题】
推理判断题。根据第三段“However, it takes even more energy and water to go through the recycling process (过程) than to make a newspaper bag. Products made from recycled paper are also often short-lived.”可知回收过程需要更多的能源和水，且由再生纸制成的产品通常也是短命的。由此推知，作者觉得回收纸不是个好主意。故选B。
【44题】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The most environment-friendly way is to avoid single-use things altogether. Products like glass water bottles and steel straws can be used over and over again...make our earth a greener place!”可知最环保的方法是完全避免一次性使用的东西，比如玻璃水瓶和钢吸管等产品可以反复使用。因此本文呼吁以环保的方式使用产品。故选B。
【45题】
篇章结构题。第一段主要讲述了纸制品对环境有害；第二、三、四段分别从纸制品会造成森林滥伐、消耗更多的能源和水、比塑料制品更重和对环境介绍纸制品的危害；第五段强调纸制品对环境和企业来说都是两败俱伤的；最后一段介绍了最环保的解决方案是完全避免一次性物品，最后两段是并列关系。故选A。
四、词汇运用（本大题有15小题,每小题1分,共计15分）

50. The flowers in the garden _________ in two weeks.
【答案】46. interesting
47. has led
48. on49. inventor
50. will come out
【解析】
【46题】
句意：关于太空旅行的新电影听起来很有趣，我这周末将去看这部电影。横线前是系动词sound，所以横线上是形容词，由于后文说这周末要看，所以是有趣，所给词interest是名词，变为形容词interesting“有趣的”。故填interesting。
【47题】
句意：在过去46年里，这个伟大的决定已经给中国带来巨大的进步。根据“The great decision…to great progress”和备选词汇可知是伟大的决定引起了巨大的进步，lead to“带领，导致”；由“in the past 46 years”可知时态是现在完成时态have/has done，主语是三单，助动词用has。故填has led。
【48题】
句意：收音机正开着，它正在播放我最爱的歌曲。根据“and it’s playing my favourite song”可知收音机是开着的，on“开着的”。故填on。
【49题】
句意：爱迪生是一个伟大的发明家，他带给我们很多有用的东西。根据“and he brought us many useful things.”可知爱迪生是个发明家，空格处应用invent的名词inventor“发明家”，这里用单数形式。故填inventor。
【50题】
句意：花园里的花两周后将开放。根据“The flowers in the garden”和备选词汇可知是花会开放，come out“(花)开”；根据“in two weeks”可知原句是一般将来时will do。故填will come out。
根据首字母或所给中文提示写出单词的正确形式，每空限填一词。

五、语法填空（本大题有10小题,每小题1分,共10分）
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的词，或填入括号中所给单词的正确形式。
Confucianism (儒家思想) plays an important role in China. Chinese people ____61____ (follow) it for more than two thousand years.
____62____ (help) people understand how to behave towards others, Confucianism teaches the Five Constants (五常). These are ren, yi, li, zhi and xin. They are general virtues (美德) around ____63____ world. The ____64____ (important) two are ren and li.
Ren is the feeling of care and love we should have for others. Confucius explained ren could best be understood as loving others. He is famous for teaching people “What you do not want done to ____65____ (you), do not do to others”. It is quite similar to what is known in the West as the Golden Rule (treat others as you wish to be treated).
While the ____66____ (mean) of ren is easy to understand, li is a little harder to express. It can be thought of as duty or even respect. Generally, li is the way we should connect with people in our ____67____ (day) life. In Confucian writings, discussions about li include the proper way to drink tea and ____68____ to remember ancestors (祖先). While ren is mostly about our opinions and feelings, li is about how we express our opinions and feelings towards others and towards the world around us.
The most well-known Confucian virtue is xiao. This is the duty children have to their parents. Xiao means loving, respecting, obeying and taking care ____69____ one’s parents in their old age. In Confucianism, xiao is important for a harmonious (和谐的) society: ____70____ we don’t follow it, the whole world would fall into a mess.
【答案】61. have followed
62. To help
63. the64. most important
65. yourself
66. meaning
67. daily68. how
69. of70. If
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了儒家思想，其中包括五常：仁、义、礼、智、信，这五常是世界的普遍美德，其中最重要的是仁和礼。
【61题】
句意：中国人已经沿袭了两千多年。根据“ for more than two thousand years”可知，时态是现在完成时，主语是复数，所以助动词用have，后跟follow的过去分词，故填have followed。
【62题】
句意：为了帮助人们理解如何对待他人，儒家教了五常。教人们五常的目的是为了帮助人们明白如何对待他人，所以空处用动词不定式表目的，故填To help。
【63题】
句意：它们是世界各地的普遍美德。around the world“世界各地”，固定短语，故填the。
【64题】
句意：最重要的两个是仁和礼。此处指五常中最重要的两个，所以用最高级，important的最高级是most important。故填most important。
【65题】
句意：己所不欲，勿施于人。根据所给词可知，主语和宾语是同一人称，所以此处用反身代词，指“对自己”，you的反身代词是yourself，故填yourself。
【66题】
句意：“仁”的意思很容易理解，而“礼”的意思就有点难表达了。根据“ the ... (mean) of”可知，此处考查the meaning of“……的意思”，故填meaning 。
【67题】
句意：一般来说，礼是我们在日常生活中与人联系的方式。空处作定语修饰名词day，所以用day的形容词daily，故填daily。
【68题】
句意：在儒家著作中，关于礼的讨论包括正确的喝茶方式和如何纪念祖先。根据“ the proper way to drink tea and ... to remember ancestors (祖先)”可知，此处指纪念祖先的方式，且空后是不定式，所以此处应是“疑问词+不定式”的结构，how“如何”符合语境，故填how。
【69题】
句意：孝的意思是爱、尊重、服从和照顾父母的晚年。take care of“照顾”，固定短语，故填of。
【70题】
句意：如果我们不遵循它，整个世界就会陷入混乱。分析句子可知，“we don’t follow it”和“ the whole world would fall into a mess.”的肯定条件，所以用if“如果”引导条件状语从句，句首单词首字母要大写。故填If。
六、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分,满分10分）
根据短文内容，从方框内所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。有两项多余。

Ancient art doesn’t have to be boring. Technology in the 21st century can help to bring it to life by combining the best of the old and the new. Scientists digitized (数码化) the famous painting Along the River During the Qingming Festival by Chinese artist Zhang Zeduan.
Along the River During the Qingming Festival
The original painting shows life during the Northern Song period and it includes many details of ancient Chinese customs, lifestyles and technology.
_________ Farmers work in the fields, sailors move around their boats and people eat and do business in restaurants. Parts of the background are also animated (做成动画). You can see the wind blowing through the trees and across the water. These animations perfectly combine modern technology and ancient art.
Digital technology allows today’s artists to express their ideas in ways that ancient artists would not believe possible. Techniques such as animation and 3D digital projection (投影) make art come alive.
Dunhuang Cave Paintings

Dunhuang Caves, which are protected as ancient treasures in the Gobi desert in Northwest China, are filled with paintings and sculptures with lasting value. This artwork was created over a period of around 1,000 years.

Digitizing ancient art allows us to explore the ancient practices. It also makes the whole world understand the art while protecting the original artworks for the future.

“Hurry up, Kyle,” Dad called. “We need to leave for the swim-team tryouts!”
Kyle sat sadly on his bed. He liked swimming, but he was afraid he wouldn’t be fast enough to impress the coach. And he didn’t want to embarrass himself.
“I changed my mind,” he shouted back. “I’ve decided not to go.”
Now Kyle heard his father’s footsteps on the staircase (楼梯). Dad walked into Kyle’s room. “Why not ” he asked. “I thought you enjoyed swimming.”
“I do, but...”
“... but you’re afraid you won’t make the team, right ”
Kyle looked up How had Dad guessed
“Listen,” Dad said. “You’re probably afraid, but why not at least have the coach time (计时) you There’s nothing to lose by trying, even if you don’t make the team. And who knows You might even surprise yourself.”
Kyle considered that for a short time. “Okay, I guess I’ll go,” he finally said.
Half an hour later, Kyle was anxiously waiting with everyone else who wanted to try out. He hated the idea of disappointing his father, so when the coach called his name, he forced himself to the edge (边缘) of the swimming pool. The coach blew his whistle (哨子) and Kyle jumped in, swimming through the water as quickly as he could. When he reached the other side of the pool, he held his head up and took the steel part at the pool’s edge, shaking his wet hair out of his eyes. He climbed out of the water and returned to where the coach was standing.
“How did I do ” he asked in a low voice.
The coach looked at his stopwatch and then smiled at Kyle. “You had a wonderful time! In fact you got one of the fastest times I’ve seen today. You’ll do a fantastic job on the swim team.”
38. What did Kyle worry
A. He couldn’t change his decision. B. He wouldn’t be selected for the team.
C. He couldn’t keep his interest in swim. D. He wouldn’t be the fastest swimmer.
39. What was the purpose of Dad’s words
A. To persuade Kyle to try out. B. To calm Kyle down.
C. To pass on the coach’s message. D. To cheer the coach up.
40. How did Kyle feel when he climbed out of the swimming pool

41. Which situation might be similar to Kyle’s experience
A. Adam refused to swim and let his father down.
B. James was training for the Olympics and succeeded.

Governments around the world are pushing for an end to plastic straws (吸管) and bags. More and more businesses are changing to paper products. Using paper is considered to be better than plastic. However, it is harmful to the environment, too.
Firstly, paper bags and straws are made from trees. Trees, as you know, are good for the environment. They can slow down climate change. An increase in the use of paper bags can cause more deforestation (毁林).
Secondly, the production of paper things requires more energy and water. About 10 percent more energy and four times as much water is used to produce a paper bag than a plastic one. You might say that we can use recycled paper to save that energy and water. This seems to be a good idea. However, it takes even more energy and water to go through the recycling process (过程) than to make a newspaper bag. Products made from recycled paper are also often short-lived.
Furthermore, paper products are heavier than plastic ones. That means they require more fuel to transport. Seven trucks are needed to transport two million paper bags, while only one truck is needed to transport the same number of plastic bags. The increased weight also leads to a larger amount of waste once the bags are thrown away.
Paper products are actually a lose-lose for both the environment and businesses. They are more expensive than plastic products. A paper straw costs about 5 to 12 cents, while a plastic one usually costs only about 2 cents.
The most environment-friendly way is to avoid single-use things altogether. Products like glass water bottles and steel straws can be used over and over again. They are much better than either paper products or plastic products. By increasing the use of these items, you can greatly reduce your throwaway waste and truly make our earth a greener place!
42. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph I refer to
A. using plastic straws. B. using plastic bags. C. using paper products. D. using single-use things.
43. What does the writer think of the recycled paper
A. It saves energy and water. B. It seems not to be a good idea.
C. It is better than single-use paper. D. It’s easy to make by recycling process.
44. What is the writer’s main purpose of writing this passage
A. To introduce the disadvantages of paper products.
B. To call on using products in an environment-friendly way.
C. To compare paper products with plastic products.
D. To explain why paper products are bad for the environment.
45. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage
A. B. C. D.
