第二部分　阅读(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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Every Saturday, Zhang Xinsheng travels two hours for a movie date with friends, navigating (导航) Beijing's subway system with his white stick and a speaking map that tells directions on his mobile phone.
Zhang lost his sight in his early 20s due to a particular disease.After going blind, he discovered a love for cinema at the “talking film” club, where volunteers give vivid narrations (叙述) to blind audiences.“ After I listened to a film for the first time in 2014, it felt like a new world opened up for me.I felt I could understand the film despite my blindness，” he said.
Dozens of blind moviegoers come to the Saturday screenings organized by Xin Mu Theater, a small group of volunteers who were the first to introduce films to blind audiences in China.They don't adopt modern techniques.A narrator describes face-to-face what is happening on screen, including facial expressions, unspoken signs, the setting and clothing.They receive and send what would otherwise be missed, like a sudden change of scenery from falling leaves to snow that shows the passage of time.
In July the group screened A Street Cat Named Bob—a story of a cat (Bob) that helps a homeless man (James) in London quit drugs and become a best-selling author.Narrator Wang Weili described what was happening on screen, “There is snow falling over London, a city in England.It's a little like Beijing but the buildings aren't that tall.A man is watching James as he sings on a street corner with Bob.” There was absolute silence as he spoke.No one whispered or ate snacks—instead, the audience listened attentively.
Wang started the “talking film” club in 2005 with a small flat-screen TV, a second-hand DVD player and about 20 chairs.His 20-square meter temporary cinema was always packed.
Explaining films to blind audiences is no easy task, especially if the plot has historical or imaginary elements that audiences are yet to experience.
语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了“有声电影”俱乐部中，志愿者向盲人观众叙述电影。
21．What can we know about the “talking film” club？
A．It was founded by some blind people.
B．It explains films to blind listeners on site.
C．It chooses the films about blind people's lives.
D．It encourages blind people to serve as volunteers.
解析：B　细节理解题。根据第二段“After going blind, he discovered a love for cinema at the ‘talking film’ club, where volunteers give vivid narrations(叙述) to blind audiences.”可知，在“有声电影”俱乐部，志愿者会为现场的盲人观众讲述电影。故选B。
22．Why was the film “A Street Cat Named Bob” mentioned in Paragraph 4？
A．To state a rule.
B．To review a film.
C．To give an example.
D．To make a survey.
解析：C　推理判断题。根据本段内容可知，作者提到电影《一只名叫鲍勃的流浪猫》，是在举例子，进一步介绍了“有声电影”俱乐部中志愿者叙述电影的方法。故选C。
23．What does the author think of narrating films to blind audiences？
A．It can be challenging.
B．It is short of fund support.
C．It skips some historical factors.
D．It requires volunteers to be imaginative.
解析：A　推理判断题。根据最后一段“Explaining films to blind audiences is no easy task, especially if the plot has historical or imaginary elements that audiences are yet to experience.”可知，作者认为向盲人观众解释电影不容易，是有挑战性的。故选A。
B
My first week in the United States was a cultural shock.Everything felt new to me, including the style of conversation, the community I lived in and even the type of food people ate.
In our community back home, people eat mutton and chicken.Pork and beef are also common among other communities, but eating beef is taken as an illegal act.Unlike Nepal, eating beef is common in the West where most of the people follow religions other than Hinduism.
Food is just an example.When people move from one part of the world to another, they should adapt themselves to the new culture.For example, going to the bars or getting drunk is not acceptable in my community, but it is common in the US after a certain age.
I was raised in a traditional Hindu family in Nepal.We have a conservative opinion towards the marriage.Arranged marriages are common in which families decide whether the two should get married.Free love marriages are not allowed and are seldom seen.Same-sex marriages are also considered impossible.
To me, culture is a matter of habit.The culture is so deep-rooted in people's minds that most people are against changes.It is always easy for them to do what they have been doing throughout their life.It may be difficult for anyone to adapt to a new culture.
However, with travel being an unavoidable thing for modern people, one always comes across different cultures.In such cases, one should be respectful and adaptive to the culture other people follow.The world is always a better place to live in when we have spaces for people of all cultures.
语篇导读：本文是一篇议论文。作者谈论了美国文化给自己带来的冲击，指出在现在的世界，人们应该尊重和适应他人的文化。

25．Which may be seen most in Nepal？

C
Liverpool, my hometown, is a unique city.It is so unique that in 2004 it became a World Heritage Site.
I recently returned to my home city and my first stop was at a museum on the River Mersey.Blanketed in mist(薄雾), Victorian architecture rose from the banks of the river, responded to the sounds of sea-birds, and appeared unbelievably charming.When I headed toward the centre, I found myself surrounded by buildings that mirror the best palaces of Europe.It is not hard to imagine why, on first seeing the city, most visitors would be overpowered by the beauty of the noble buildings, which are solid signs of Liverpool's history.
As if to stress its cultural role, Liverpool has more museums and galleries(美术馆) than most cities in Britain.At Walker Art Gallery, I was told that it has best collections of Victorian paintings in the world, and is the home of modern art in the north of England.However, culture is more than galleries.Liverpool offers many music events.As Britain's No.1 music city, it has the biggest city music festival in Europe, and its musicians are famous all over the world.Liverpool is also well-known for its football and other sports events.Every year, the Mersey River Festival attracts thousands of visitors, making the city a place of wonder.
As you would expect from such a city, there are restaurants serving food from around the world.When my trip was about to complete, I chose to rest my legs in Liverpool's famous Philharmonic pub(酒馆)．It is a monument to perfection, and a heritage attraction itself.
Being a World Heritage Site, my home city is certainly a place of “outstanding universal value”．It is a treasure house with plenty of secrets for the world to explore.

Specialists(专家) say it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture.“Culture shock” is what these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment.There are three stages of culture shock, say the specialists.In the first stage, the newcomers like their new environment.Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else.In the last stage, the newcomers begin to get used to their surroundings and, as a result, enjoy their life more.
There are some evident factors(因素) in culture shock.The weather may be unpleasant.The customs may be different.The public service systems—the telephones, post office, or transportation—may be difficult to work out.The simplest things seem to be big problems.The language may be difficult.
Who feels culture shock Everyone does in this way or that.But culture shock surprises most people.Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their own country.Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same positions they have back home.They find themselves without any identity.They have to build a new self-image.
Culture shock gives rise to a feeling of helplessness.This feeling may be homesickness.When homesick, people feel like staying inside all the time.They want to protect themselves from the strange environment, and create an escape inside their room for a sense of security(安全)．This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short time, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture.Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience—these are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock.

Rules for proper gift giving
When you are planning to give a gift, it is important to think about the receiver.As the gift is for the other person, it should be suitable for his or her particular personality.Is he or she a family member or a close friend 36.　　 These are valuable things to keep in mind when choosing the right gift for someone.
At a dinner party, it is usually proper to show up with some sort of gratitude(感谢) for the host. 37.　　　　 This type of gift does not have to be expensive.It just needs to be something that can serve as a sign of appreciation.This can be done in the form of flowers or a bottle of wine.
When someone gives you a gift, you generally want to give one in return. 38.　　 There are situations where people give gifts and do not expect anything in return.This occurs when you are celebrating your birthday or graduation.If you receive gifts from your friends, then just a thank-you note will be enough.
When in a situation where you have received something expensive and are expected to give one in return, many people feel pressured to give a gift of greater or equal value to the one that was gifted to them.However, it is important to distance yourself from these assumptions. 39.　　　　
Well, what should you do when you have forgotten to send a gift It happens to all of us.Whether it is a family member's birthday or a friend's graduation ceremony, forgetting to give a gift is awkward.So, it can be difficult to find the right way to make up for forgetfulness.However, before you begin to panic, know that a late gift is better than no gift. 40.　　　　
A．However, this is not always the case.
B．Do you have to give a gift to your friends
C．Gifts should be tied to meaning instead of dollar value.
D．In Eastern cultures, gifts are given before the guest leaves.
E．Does he or she enjoy big gifts or prefer a bunch of flowers
F．So, send your gift with an apologetic note and all should be forgiven.
G．They have invited you over to their home and that should be acknowledged.
语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了几项送礼物的注意事项。
解析：
36．E　根据前后文可知，空格处是又提到了一个要考虑的因素，所以选项E“他/她喜欢大礼物还是喜欢一束花？”切合文意。故选E。
37．G　前文对应选项G中的“They have invited you over to their home”，“with some sort of gratitude(感谢)”对应选项G中的“that should be acknowledged”。所以选项G“他们邀请你去他们家，这应该得到感谢。”切合文意。故选G。
38．A　根据前后文可知，但是有些情况人们并不希望收到回赠，对应选项A，和前文构成转折关系，对应转折词however，所以选项A“然而，情况并非总是如此。”切合文意。故选A。
39．C　根据本段内容可知，此处是指礼物的贵重并不重要，所以选项C“礼物应该与意义而不是金钱价值挂钩。”切合文意。故选C。
40．F　根据前文“So, it can be difficult...know that a late gift is better than no gift.”可知，此处是指如果忘记了送对方礼物也没关系，迟到的礼物总比没有礼物好。所以选项F “所以，送出你的礼物，并附上道歉的纸条，所有的一切都应该被原谅。”切合文意。故选F。

第二节(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Natural resources 56.　　　　 things which exist in nature and can be used by people.Some natural resources are renewable, like trees.When one tree is cut down, we can plant a new tree to replace it.Others, 57.　　　　, are not renewable, like the coal dug out of the ground.Once it is used, it is 58.　　　　(go)．
Although we all know that our natural resources are limited, we often waste them in our daily life.Paper, bottles and cans 59.　　　　(throw) away carelessly；food is wasted just because of its poor taste；clothes are rejected 60.　　　　(simple) due to their old fashion.These valuable natural resources will run out before long 61.　　　　 better use is made of them.
Actually, everyone can make contributions (贡献) to 62.　　　　(protect) our natural resources.For example, 63.　　　　 riding a bicycle or walking instead of driving, we can save lots of petrol.Water is a very important natural resource because we all need it 64.　　　　(stay) alive.We can make wise 65.　　　　(choose) to save water, like reusing the water that has been used to wash vegetables to water flowers.
语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了自然资源不是取之不竭，用之不尽的东西，每个人都应该为保护自然资源做出贡献。
解析：
56．are　考查时态和主谓一致。本句表达的是客观事实，用一般现在时。句子的主语是Natural resources。故填are。
57．however　考查副词。前文说到“Some natural resources are renewable, like trees.”，而本句“Others， 57 , are not renewable, like the coal dug out of the ground.”句子结构完整，和上文构成转折关系，应填表示“然而”的单词。故填however。
58．gone　考查形容词。is是系动词，接形容词作表语，gone“用完的；消失的”符合句意。故填gone。
59．are thrown　考查时态、语态和主谓一致。主语Paper, bottles and cans与谓语动词throw是被动关系，且描述现在的事实用一般现在时，又因主语为复数。故填are thrown。
60．simply　考查副词。修饰“due to”，应用副词形式作状语。故填simply。
61．unless　考查连词。本空前后构成条件关系，结合前后关系和句意，应填连词。故填unless。
62．protecting　考查非谓语动词。固定搭配make contributions to doing sth.“为……做出贡献”，介词to后接动名词作宾语。故填protecting。
63．by　考查介词。by作介词时有“通过、靠”的意思，也有乘交通工具的意思，如：by bus乘公交。故填by。
64．to stay　考查非谓语动词。不定式作目的状语。故填to stay。
65．choices　考查名词复数。wise是形容词，后应接名词，且根据句意，用复数。故填choices。
第四部分　写作(共两节，满分40分)
第一节(满分15分)
假定你是李华，你的美国笔友Tom下个月要来中国参观你所在的城市。现来信询问你所在城市的天气、食物、交通等信息。请你回信告知情况。
注意：1.词数80左右；
2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。
参考范文：
Dear Tom，
How is everything going I'm more than happy to hear that you will come to China next month.Now let me tell you something different you may meet here.
To start with, the weather here is totally different from that in your place.It hardly rains but whenever it does, it rains heavily.So you'd better bring a raincoat with you.Another big challenge is food.To be honest, the Chinese food differs from yours, so you have to try to get accustomed to it and learn how to use chopsticks.As for traffic, you can take a bus or subway to nearly anywhere you want to.More importantly, it's cheap and convenient.
I'm looking forward to meeting you soon.
Yours，
Li Hua
第二节(满分25分)
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。
Soapy is a twenty-four-pound rabbit.People look surprised when they first touch him and remark how soft he is.I've noticed he seems to make everyone who meets him a little softer, too.So when I started to work as a volunteer in the community, I decided to take him with me as a therapy (疗法) animal.
One day，Soapy and I visited a shelter for women who had suffered from violence.The women in the shelter all looked at me in low spirits.No one smiled a greeting.One little girl in particular caught my attention.Never raising her eyes, never reaching out, she wandered in and out of the gathered group.The staff informed me that the little girl, named Alice, had been there for over a month and had not spoken the entire time.Nothing they tried had any effect.I didn't want to imagine what would have happened to rob this little girl of the curiosity and enthusiasm so natural to childhood.
Spreading a blanket on the floor, I sat down and opened Soapy's carrier.As the women circled around me, I told the group that Soapy would come to them if they sat on the blanket.Several women did this, including Alice.In a short time, Soapy emerged from his carrier and slowly jumped from one woman to another.After touching Soapy, these women looked down and smiled softly.Soapy continued his rounds, and the women gradually began to talk about Soapy and I chatted with them as I kept one eye on Alice.She sat rigidly at the edge of the blanket and legs held out straight in front of her.She was staring hard at Soapy.It appeared that Soapy kept making eye contact with her, too.He would jump from person to person, each visit taking him closer to her.I began to wonder if he was stopping to give her time to watch him.I looked at her again.She sat there nervously, just staring.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
Finally Soapy came to a stop when he was about two inches from Alice's legs.
Days later, I revisited the shelter with Soapy: surprised to find Alice even happier than before.
参考范文：
Finally Soapy came to a stop when he was about two inches from Alice's legs.He quietly reached out and laid his chin on her knee.The child slowly leaned toward him.When her face was within inches of his, she carefully reached out and circled him with her arms.Folded around the rabbit, she pillowed her head on his back and whispered to him.I looked up and noticed that the shelter workers had stopped talking.Time seemed suspended.The rigidity of her back relaxed, and her shoulders rounded into a comfortable slope.
Days later, I revisited the shelter with Soapy: surprised to find Alice even happier than before.She wrapped Soapy in a big hug and pressed her face against him.He reached out his head again and laid it on the child's shoulder.As she turned away, I thought I saw the beginnings of a faint smile.The rabbit in his cloud of soft, warm fur had touched something deep in the child—something that had died from too much hard experience.It seems the language of the heart is simple after all.
