B
　　Humans are usually optimistic and confident.In psychological circles this is a proven phenomenon known as the “better than average effect （BTAE）”.Academic research has demonstrated that people consistently think they are better than the average person when it comes to driving， teaching， athletic ability， leadership skills and social skills.People rate themselves as more honest， persistent and original than average.
A new set of studies has now demonstrated that BTAE also applies to people’s perception （认知） of their being environmental friendly.The research， conducted at the University of Gothenburg， reveals that out of 4，000 survey participants from Sweden， the United States， England and India， the majority were convinced that they acted more environmentally friendly than the average person — a mathematical impossibility.
The researchers tested this using two methods， known as direct and indirect.For the former （used in Sweden） people were simply asked whether they thought they were more or less environmentally friendly than others in their country.The indirect approach （used for the other countries） involved asking participants about specific behaviours， such as buying green products， turning off taps when brushing teeth and taking a reusable bag to the shops.
Both methods demonstrated the effect in action.The percentage of people rating their own pro-environmental engagement as above average was 75.3 percent in the total sample of Indians， English and Americans （85.7 percent in the Indian sample， 72 percent in the English sample， and 63.7 percent in the US sample）.When it came to specific behaviours， the effect was found to hold for nine out of ten pro-environmental behaviours tested.
The risk of BTAE is that if everyone already thinks they are doing so well， it could mean that people are less willing to step up their game in the future.The research did not show a strong risk of this， but environmental psychology researcher Magnus Bergquist points out that even a small effect in this regard could have a large impact across whole societies.
4.What does BTAE mainly reflect about people？（　　）
A.A blind faith in oneself.
B.A pessimistic attitude in life.
C.An assumption of the future.
D.A high expectation on others.
5.What do we learn about the new research？（　　）
A.It proved BTAE.
B.It discovered BTAE.
C.It was conducted in five countries.
D.It spread environmental knowledge.
6.BTAE can be found most obviously in 　　　　.（　　）
A.Swedes　　　　　　B.Indians
C.Americans D.English
7.What is the problem with BTAE？（　　）
A.People will laugh at others.
B.People will forget their goals.
C.People won’t perform as usual.
D.People won’t make further efforts.
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
How to Read a Poem
There’s really only one reason why poetry has gotten a reputation for being so “difficult”：It demands your full attention.8.（　　）
Follow your ears.It’s okay to ask “What does it mean？” when you are reading a poem.But it’s even better to ask “How does it sound？” 9.（　　） Even if you can’t understand a single thing about a poem’s “subject” or “theme”， you can always say something about the sound of the words.
10.（　　） OK， we’re not saying you have to shout it from the rooftops.If you’re embarrassed and want to lock yourself in the attic （阁楼） and read the poem in the quietest whisper， go ahead.But reading aloud is really an effective way to understand a poem， because reading even part of it aloud can totally change your perspective on how it works.
Read in different places.Just like music， the experience of poetry changes depending on your mood and the environment.Read in as many different places as possible： at the beach， on a mountain， in the subway.11.（　　）
Think like a poet.Here’s a fun exercise.Go through the poem one line at a time， covering up the next line with your hand so you can’t see it.Put yourself in the poet’s shoes：12.（　　） If you start to think like this， you’ll be able to appreciate all the different choices that go into making a poem.
A.Be patient.
B.Read it aloud.
C.If all else fails， treat it like a song.
D.If I had to write a line to come after this line， what would I put？
E.So if you don’t get it， set the poem aside and come back to it later.
F.Sometimes all it takes is a change of scenery for a poem to really come alive.
G.Here is a short list of tips that will make poems reading more enjoyable.

语篇解读：本文是一篇关于诗歌邀请赛的征文启事。文章包括三部分：诗歌的主题要求（勇气、决心和毅力）、奖项设置和比赛规则。
1.A　细节理解题。根据Prizes部分第一段中的Trip to Washington， D.C.for each of three winners， a parent and one other person of the winner’s choice.可知，每位获奖者都可以带一名家长和另一名由获奖者选择的人员。因此，每位获奖者可以带两个人。
2.C　细节理解题。根据Prizes部分第三段内容可知，每位优秀奖获奖者都将获得一件纪念埃尔哈特最后一次飞行的T恤。
3.B　细节理解题。根据Rules部分中的Follow all rules carefully to prevent disqualification.以及第一条中的Write a poem using 100 words or fewer.可知，所写的诗词数不能超过100，否则，将会被取消资格。因此B项（写一首120词的诗）是会被取消资格的。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。很多人都认为自己比其他人做得更加环保，事实真的如此吗？
4.A　推理判断题。根据第一段可知，BTAE指人们的一种普遍倾向：认为自己在各方面比其他人做得更好。显然，这是一种盲目的自信。
5.A　细节理解题。根据第二、三段可知，这项研究通过两种方法证明BTAE理论也适用于人们的自我环保认知。
6.B　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段可知，在参与调查的四个国家中，85.7%的印度人认为自己比其他人更加环保，这说明BTAE理论在他们身上表现得最为明显。
7.D　推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，BTAE带来的一个风险是人们认为自己已经做得足够好，因此不会进一步努力。
Ⅱ.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何朗读一首诗歌提供了几个技巧。
8.G　根据下文各段首句可知，本文提供了几个朗读诗歌的技巧。故G项（这里有一个简短的技巧列表，将使诗歌朗读更愉快）总启下文，符合语境。
9.C　根据空后一句可知，即使你对一首诗的“题目”或“主题”一窍不通，你也总能对单词的发音说出一些东西。故C项（如果其他方法都失败了，把它当作一首歌来对待）符合语境。
10.B　根据下文But reading aloud is really an effective way ...your perspective on how it works.可知，但是大声朗读确实是理解一首诗的有效方法，因为大声朗读其中的一部分可以完全改变你对一首诗的看法。故B项（大声朗读诗歌）符合语境。
11.F　根据空前一句可知，在尽可能多的地方读诗：在海滩上、在山上、在地铁里。所以在这么多不同的地方读诗，就是为了说明环境对读诗所产生的积极影响。故F项（有时候，一首诗要栩栩如生，只需要变换一下环境）符合语境。
12.D　根据空前两句可知，把这首诗一行一行地读一遍，用手把下一行盖住，这样你就看不见了。把你自己放在诗人的立场上。故D项（如果我必须写一行来接这行，我会写什么？）符合语境。
Ⅲ.
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了跟随丈夫移居到美国堪萨斯州的作者感受到美国人的善意和真诚的故事。
13.C　根据上文I am Russian， but I live in Kansas now.可知，作者是被丈夫带到堪萨斯州的。
14.A　根据上文I work in a store可知，作者讲的是她同事的微笑。
15.D　根据上文pronounce my name so sweetly可知，同事们把作者的名字念得那么好听，作者感到亲切，觉得像是妈妈在叫她的名字。
16.D　上文讲同事们真诚的微笑和亲切的称呼让作者觉得像是妈妈在叫她的名字。根据However可知，下文要表达相反的意思：在作者的家乡，人们认为社交微笑是不真诚的。
17.B　根据下文to go and see my mom back in Russia可知，作者的丈夫建议作者回俄罗斯看她的妈妈。
18.A　根据上文My manager even gave me a month off和下文So what’s happening with your trip to Russia？可知，经理给作者批了一个月的探亲旅行假。
19.B　根据下文my suitcase可知，作者收拾行李，为探亲旅行做准备。
20.C　根据下文as I couldn’t go back可知，因为无法回俄罗斯见妈妈，所以作者心情不好。
21.D　根据下文that I wouldn’t be able to see my mom this year可知，作者不能回俄罗斯见妈妈，所以旅程取消了。
22.A　根据下文Well， you can come and see my mom！可知，Donna是面带微笑提出邀请的。
23.B　此处表示作者被同事的邀请感动得不知所措。at a loss for words为固定搭配，意为“不知说什么好”。
24.B　根据上文可知，Donna主动邀请作者去家里做客，而作者不确定自己遇到同样的情况时是否也会提出同样的邀请。
25.C　上文讲作者不确定自己遇到同样的情况时是否也会提出同样的邀请，结合句中转折连词but和上文同事的做法可知，她确定她的同事、朋友会那样做。
26.D　根据上文Because of the pandemic， we shouldn’t hug friends， but we can hug someone’s heart.可知，同事的做法让作者内心感受到温暖的拥抱。
27.D　根据上文Donna邀请作者去家里做客和we shouldn’t hug friends， but we can hug someone’s heart可知，同事的做法让作者感到温暖，也相信他们的微笑是真诚的。
Ⅳ.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。寓言是用比喻性的故事来寄托意味深长的道理，给人以启示的文学体裁，字数不多，但言简意赅。
28.expressing　动词mean后面通常接动词-ing形式作宾语，故填expressing。
29.through　寓言通常是“通过”虚构的故事来说明一个道理，故填through。
30.a　这里需要一个不定冠词来构成a form of literature这一短语，故填a。
31.stories　根据语境可知，这里提到的故事不止一个，故填其复数形式stories。
32.used　根据语境可知，这里说庄子首次使用“寓言”一词，应该用一般过去时，故填used。
33.to be read　这里显然是说寓言“被读”，另外need是情态动词，故填to be read。
34.which　本句是对上文庄子那句话的进一步解释，故填关系代词which来指代这句话，引导一个非限制性定语从句。
35.hidden　这里是说作者的观点和寓意被隐藏在故事中，故填表示被动的过去分词hidden。
36.traditional　由于后面的form是一个名词，故填形容词traditional来修饰它。
37.is　本句主语为story，且说明一个客观事实，故填is。
6 / 6Section Ⅴ　LESSON 3　20，000 LEAGUES① UNDER THE SEA
　　
　　[1]The crash was so violent② that I have no clear recollection③ of falling from the boat.Might I hope to be saved？ The darkness was intense④.I saw a black mass disappearing in the east.It was the boat！ I was lost.
　　“Help， help！” I shouted， [2]swimming towards the boat in desperation⑤.I was sinking⑥！ I couldn’t breathe！ “Help！” My mouth filled with water； I struggled against being drawn⑦ deeper， deeper down.[3]Suddenly I felt myself quickly drawn up to the surface of the sea；and I heard these words：“If master would be so good as to hold onto my shoulder， master would swim with much greater ease⑧.” I grabbed⑨ my faithful Conseil’s arm with one hand.
　　[1]句中so ...that ...引导结果状语从句，意为“如此……以至于……”。
　　[2]句中swimming towards the boat in desperation 为动词-ing短语作状语。
　　[3]本句为“feel＋宾语＋宾语补足语”结构，drawn up to the surface of the sea为动词-ed 短语作宾语补足语。
　　“Is it you？” said I.
　　“Myself，” answered Conseil.
　　“That crash threw you as well as me into the sea？”
　　“No； but， being in my master’s service⑩， I followed him.”
　　Conseil was cool and calm.Nevertheless ， our situation was no less terrible. Near one o’clock in the morning， I suddenly felt terribly tired.Conseil had to keep me up ， and our preservation depended on him alone. “Leave me！ Leave me！” I said to him.
　　“Never！” replied he. “I would drown first.”
　　“Help！ Help！” cried Conseil. It seemed to me as if a cry answered him. There was no mistake！ A human voice responded to ours！ Then， I know not why， the thought of the strange， terrible animal came into my head for the first time！ But that voice！ I had almost no strength left； my fingers could hardly move； my mouth， opening and closing， filled with salt water. I became colder and colder. I raised my head for the last time， then I sank.
　　At this moment a hard body struck me. I held onto it； then I felt that I was being drawn up， that I was brought to the surface of the water， that my chest collapsed — my eyes closed， unconscious . I soon woke up， and half opened my eyes. I saw a face which I immediately recognised.“Ned！” I cried.
　　“The same， sir！” replied the Canadian.
　　“Were you thrown into the sea when the boat crashed？”
　　“Yes， Professor， but more fortunate than you， I was able to find safety almost immediately upon this island in the sea.Or， more correctly speaking ， on this large whale . [4]Only I soon found out why my weapon had not entered its skin， but bounced off.”
　　“Why， Ned， why？”
　　“Because that creature is made of steel .”I moved myself quickly to the top of the being ， and kicked it. It was evidently a hard， solid body.[5]The black back that supported me was smooth， polished ， nothing like an animal.The blow produced a sound of metal； and， [6]incredible though it may be， it seemed as if it was made of metal plates.This monster was a human construction . We were lying upon the back of a sort of underwater boat. I searched all over the outside for an opening， a hole， but found nothing. At last this long night passed.Daybreak appeared.Suddenly a noise came from inside the boat. One iron plate was moved， a man appeared， uttered an odd cry， and disappeared immediately. Some moments after， eight strong men， [7]their faces covered， appeared noiselessly， and drew us down into their incredible machine.
　　[4]句中why 引导宾语从句。
　　[5]句中that supported me为定语从句，修饰先行词The black back。
　　[6]句中incredible though it may be 为倒装结构，as if it was made of metal plates为表语从句。
　　[7]their faces covered为独立主格结构。

【参考译文】
　　撞击实在是太猛烈了，我不清楚自己是怎么从船上摔下来的。我会被救起吗？夜色沉黑，我仿佛看到一大块黑东西在东方渐渐消失了。那是我们的船！我被丢下了。
　　“救命啊，救命啊！”我大喊着，绝望地朝船游去。我要沉下去了！我透不过气了！“救命啊！”海水灌进嘴里，我挣扎着不被淹没。突然，我感到自己被迅速拉出水面；我听见有人说：“如果主人能抓牢我的肩膀，主人会游得轻松很多。”我用一只手抓住忠仆康塞尔的胳膊。
　　“是你吗？”我问。
　　“正是我。”康塞尔回答。
　　“你也是因为刚才的撞击掉下来的？”
　　“不是。为了服侍先生，我就跟着下来了。”
　　康赛尔很冷静。不过，我们的处境仍旧很糟糕。将近凌晨一点，我突然感到极度疲惫。康塞尔不得不托着我，保全我们两个人生命的重担全落在他一人身上。“放开我吧！别管我了！”我对他说。
　　“不行！要沉下去也是我先沉。”他答道。
　　“救命啊！救命啊！”康塞尔喊道。我似乎隐约听到有人回应。没错！是有个人在回应我们！然后，不知道为什么我第一次想到那个奇怪的、可怕的动物！可是那是人声不假！我的力气已经消耗殆尽，手指变得僵硬；我的嘴一张一合，灌满了又咸又苦的海水，我越来越冷。我最后一次抬起头来，之后便沉了下去。
　　就在这时，一个坚硬的东西撞了我一下。我紧紧地抓住了它；接着，我觉得有人往上拉我，把我拉出了水面，我的胸部不胀了——眼睛紧闭，失去了知觉。我很快就苏醒过来，半睁开眼睛，看到一张面孔立马就认了出来。“奈德！”我喊道。
　　“正是我，先生！”加拿大人答道。
　　“你也是撞击时坠入海里的吗？”
　　“是的，教授，但情形比您好一些，我落水后不久就脱险了，遇到了海里的这个小岛。或者更准确地说，是在这条大鲸鱼身上。不过，我很快就明白了，为什么武器刺不穿它的皮肤，而是被弹开。”
　　“为什么呢，奈德，究竟是为什么呢？”
　　“因为这个生物是钢铁做的。”我迅速地爬到了它的上面，踢了一脚。显然， 这是一个坚硬、结实的物体。在我脚下的黑色的背脊精光溜滑，一点也不像动物。撞击时，这东西发出金属的声音；虽然听起来不可思议，但它似乎是用金属板制成的。这个怪物是人造的。我们正躺在一只潜水船的背上。我四处查找，试图找到开口、气孔，但什么也没有。终于，漫漫长夜过去了，天亮了。突然船内传来一阵响声，一块钢板被掀了起来，出来一个人。 这人怪叫一声，立刻又消失不见了。过了一会儿，八个壮汉蒙着脸，一声不响地出现了，把我们拖进了他们那不可思议的机器里。

　　“No； but， being in my master’s service⑩， I followed him.”
　　Conseil was cool and calm.Nevertheless ， our situation was no less
terrible. Near one o’clock in the morning， I suddenly felt terribly
tired.Conseil had to keep me up ， and our preservation depended on
him alone. “Leave me！ Leave me！” I said to him.
　　“Never！” replied he. “I would drown first.”
　　“Is it you？” said I.
　　“Myself，” answered Conseil.
　　“That crash threw you as well as me into the sea？”
　　“Help！ Help！” cried Conseil. It seemed to me as if a cry
answered him. There was no mistake！ A human voice responded to
ours！ Then， I know not why， the thought of the strange， terrible
animal came into my head for the first time！ But that voice！ I had
almost no strength left； my fingers could hardly move； my mouth，
opening and closing， filled with salt water. I became colder and colder. I
raised my head for the last time， then I sank.
　　At this moment a hard body struck me. I held onto it； then I felt
that I was being drawn up， that I was brought to the surface of the
water， that my chest collapsed — my eyes closed， unconscious . I
soon woke up， and half opened my eyes. I saw a face which I
immediately recognised.“Ned！” I cried.
　　“The same， sir！” replied the Canadian.
　　“Were you thrown into the sea when the boat crashed？”
　　“Yes， Professor， but more fortunate than you， I was able to find
safety almost immediately upon this island in the sea.Or， more correctly
speaking ， on this large whale . [4]Only I soon found out why my
weapon had not entered its skin， but bounced off.”
　　“Why， Ned， why？”
　　“Because that creature is made of steel .”I moved myself quickly

body.[5]The black back that supported me was smooth， polished ，
nothing like an animal.The blow produced a sound of metal； and，
[6]incredible though it may be， it seemed as if it was made of metal
plates.This monster was a human construction . We were lying upon the
back of a sort of underwater boat. I searched all over the outside for an
opening， a hole， but found nothing. At last this long night
passed.Daybreak appeared.Suddenly a noise came from inside the boat.

【参考译文】
撞击实在是太猛烈了，我不清楚自己是怎么从船上摔下来的。我会
被救起吗？夜色沉黑，我仿佛看到一大块黑东西在东方渐渐消失了。
那是我们的船！我被丢下了。
　　“救命啊，救命啊！”我大喊着，绝望地朝船游去。我要沉下去
了！我透不过气了！“救命啊！”海水灌进嘴里，我挣扎着不被淹
没。突然，我感到自己被迅速拉出水面；我听见有人说：“如果主人
能抓牢我的肩膀，主人会游得轻松很多。”我用一只手抓住忠仆康塞
尔的胳膊。
　　“是你吗？”我问。
　　“正是我。”康塞尔回答。
　　“你也是因为刚才的撞击掉下来的？”
　　“不是。为了服侍先生，我就跟着下来了。”
　　康赛尔很冷静。不过，我们的处境仍旧很糟糕。将近凌晨一点，
我突然感到极度疲惫。康塞尔不得不托着我，保全我们两个人生命的
重担全落在他一人身上。“放开我吧！别管我了！”我对他说。
　　“不行！要沉下去也是我先沉。”他答道。
　　“救命啊！救命啊！”康塞尔喊道。我似乎隐约听到有人回应。
没错！是有个人在回应我们！然后，不知道为什么我第一次想到那个
奇怪的、可怕的动物！可是那是人声不假！我的力气已经消耗殆尽，
手指变得僵硬；我的嘴一张一合，灌满了又咸又苦的海水，我越来越
冷。我最后一次抬起头来，之后便沉了下去。
　　就在这时，一个坚硬的东西撞了我一下。我紧紧地抓住了它；接
着，我觉得有人往上拉我，把我拉出了水面，我的胸部不胀了——眼
睛紧闭，失去了知觉。我很快就苏醒过来，半睁开眼睛，看到一张面
孔立马就认了出来。“奈德！”我喊道。
　　“正是我，先生！”加拿大人答道。
　　“你也是撞击时坠入海里的吗？”
　　“是的，教授，但情形比您好一些，我落水后不久就脱险了，遇
到了海里的这个小岛。或者更准确地说，是在这条大鲸鱼身上。不
过，我很快就明白了，为什么武器刺不穿它的皮肤，而是被弹开。”
　　“为什么呢，奈德，究竟是为什么呢？”
　　“因为这个生物是钢铁做的。”我迅速地爬到了它的上面，踢了
一脚。显然， 这是一个坚硬、结实的物体。在我脚下的黑色的背脊精
光溜滑，一点也不像动物。撞击时，这东西发出金属的声音；虽然听
起来不可思议，但它似乎是用金属板制成的。这个怪物是人造的。我
们正躺在一只潜水船的背上。我四处查找，试图找到开口、气孔，但
什么也没有。终于，漫漫长夜过去了，天亮了。突然船内传来一阵响
声，一块钢板被掀了起来，出来一个人。 这人怪叫一声，立刻又消失
不见了。过了一会儿，八个壮汉蒙着脸，一声不响地出现了，把我们
拖进了他们那不可思议的机器里。

则。
1. How many people can each grand prize winner take on the free trip？
（　　）
A. Two. B. Three.
C. Four. D. Six.
解析： 　细节理解题。根据Prizes部分第一段中的Trip to
Washington， D. C. for each of three winners， a parent and one other
person of the winner’s choice.可知，每位获奖者都可以带一名家长
和另一名由获奖者选择的人员。因此，每位获奖者可以带两个人。
2. What will each of the honorable mention winners get？ （　　）
A. A plane ticket.
B. A book by Corinne Szabo.
C. A special T-shirt.
D. A photo of Amelia Earhart.

3. Which of the following will result in disqualification？（　　）
A. Typing your poem out.
B. Writing a poem of 120 words.
C. Using both sides of the paper.
D. Mailing your entry on 30 October.
解析： 　细节理解题。根据Rules部分中的Follow all rules
carefully to prevent disqualification.以及第一条中的Write a poem
using 100 words or fewer.可知，所写的诗词数不能超过100，否
则，将会被取消资格。因此B项（写一首120词的诗）是会被取消
资格的。
B
　　Humans are usually optimistic and confident.In psychological circles
this is a proven phenomenon known as the “better than average effect
（BTAE）”.Academic research has demonstrated that people
consistently think they are better than the average person when it comes to
driving， teaching， athletic ability， leadership skills and social
skills.People rate themselves as more honest， persistent and original than
average.
A new set of studies has now demonstrated that BTAE also applies to
people’s perception （认知） of their being environmental friendly.The
research， conducted at the University of Gothenburg， reveals that out of
4，000 survey participants from Sweden， the United States， England
and India， the majority were convinced that they acted more
environmentally friendly than the average person — a mathematical
impossibility.
The researchers tested this using two methods， known as direct and
indirect.For the former （used in Sweden） people were simply asked
whether they thought they were more or less environmentally friendly than
others in their country.The indirect approach （used for the other
countries） involved asking participants about specific behaviours， such
as buying green products， turning off taps when brushing teeth and taking
a reusable bag to the shops.
Both methods demonstrated the effect in action.The percentage of
people rating their own pro-environmental engagement as above average
was 75.3 percent in the total sample of Indians， English and Americans
（85.7 percent in the Indian sample， 72 percent in the English sample，
and 63.7 percent in the US sample）.When it came to specific
behaviours， the effect was found to hold for nine out of ten pro-
environmental behaviours tested.
The risk of BTAE is that if everyone already thinks they are doing so
well， it could mean that people are less willing to step up their game in
the future.The research did not show a strong risk of this， but
environmental psychology researcher Magnus Bergquist points out that
even a small effect in this regard could have a large impact across whole
societies.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。很多人都认为自己比其他人做得更
加环保，事实真的如此吗？
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。很多人都认为自己比其他人做得更
加环保，事实真的如此吗？
4. What does BTAE mainly reflect about people？（　　）
A. A blind faith in oneself.
B. A pessimistic attitude in life.
C. An assumption of the future.
D. A high expectation on others.
解析： 　推理判断题。根据第一段可知，BTAE指人们的一种普
遍倾向：认为自己在各方面比其他人做得更好。显然，这是一种盲
目的自信。
5. What do we learn about the new research？（　　）
A. It proved BTAE.
B. It discovered BTAE.
C. It was conducted in five countries.
D. It spread environmental knowledge.
解析： 　细节理解题。根据第二、三段可知，这项研究通过两种
方法证明BTAE理论也适用于人们的自我环保认知。
6. BTAE can be found most obviously in 　　　　.（　　）
A. Swedes B. Indians
C. Americans D. English
解析： 　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段可知，在参与调查的四个
国家中，85.7%的印度人认为自己比其他人更加环保，这说明
BTAE理论在他们身上表现得最为明显。
7. What is the problem with BTAE？（　　）
A. People will laugh at others.
B. People will forget their goals.
C. People won’t perform as usual.
D. People won’t make further efforts.
解析： 　推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，BTAE带来的一个风
险是人们认为自己已经做得足够好，因此不会进一步努力。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
How to Read a Poem
There’s really only one reason why poetry has gotten a reputation
for being so “difficult”：It demands your full attention.8.（　　）
Follow your ears.It’s okay to ask “What does it mean？” when
you are reading a poem.But it’s even better to ask “How does it
sound？” 9.（　　） Even if you can’t understand a single thing about
a poem’s “subject” or “theme”， you can always say something
about the sound of the words.
10. （　　） OK， we’re not saying you have to shout it from the
rooftops.If you’re embarrassed and want to lock yourself in the attic
（阁楼） and read the poem in the quietest whisper， go ahead.But
reading aloud is really an effective way to understand a poem，
because reading even part of it aloud can totally change your
perspective on how it works.
Read in different places.Just like music， the experience of
poetry changes depending on your mood and the environment.Read in
as many different places as possible： at the beach， on a mountain，
in the subway.11.（　　）
Think like a poet.Here’s a fun exercise.Go through the poem one
line at a time， covering up the next line with your hand so you can’t see
it.Put yourself in the poet’s shoes：12.（　　） If you start to think
like this， you’ll be able to appreciate all the different choices that go
into making a poem.
A. Be patient.
B. Read it aloud.
C. If all else fails， treat it like a song.
D. If I had to write a line to come after this line， what would I put？
E. So if you don’t get it， set the poem aside and come back to it later.
F. Sometimes all it takes is a change of scenery for a poem to really come
alive.
G. Here is a short list of tips that will make poems reading more
enjoyable.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何朗读一首诗歌提供了几
个技巧。
8. G　根据下文各段首句可知，本文提供了几个朗读诗歌的技巧。故
G项（这里有一个简短的技巧列表，将使诗歌朗读更愉快）总启下
文，符合语境。
9. C　根据空后一句可知，即使你对一首诗的“题目”或“主题”一
窍不通，你也总能对单词的发音说出一些东西。故C项（如果其他方
法都失败了，把它当作一首歌来对待）符合语境。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何朗读一首诗歌提供了几
个技巧。
10. B　根据下文But reading aloud is really an effective way ...your
perspective on how it works.可知，但是大声朗读确实是理解一首诗的
有效方法，因为大声朗读其中的一部分可以完全改变你对一首诗的看
法。故B项（大声朗读诗歌）符合语境。
11. F　根据空前一句可知，在尽可能多的地方读诗：在海滩上、在山
上、在地铁里。所以在这么多不同的地方读诗，就是为了说明环境对
读诗所产生的积极影响。故F项（有时候，一首诗要栩栩如生，只需
要变换一下环境）符合语境。
12. D　根据空前两句可知，把这首诗一行一行地读一遍，用手把下
一行盖住，这样你就看不见了。把你自己放在诗人的立场上。故D项
（如果我必须写一行来接这行，我会写什么？）符合语境。

Ⅳ.语法填空
　　In Chinese， the word “yuyan” （fable） is composed of two
words：“Yu” means 28. 　　　　　 （express） something in a
disguised （隐藏的） manner， while “Yan” means words or
languages. Therefore “yuyan” means explaining a certain principle
29. 　　　　　　 invented stories or natural objects.
In the daily life， the fable， 30. 　　　　　　 time-honored form
of literature， often exists in long and large articles in the form of small
31. 　　　　　 （story） to help explain the particular principle， or
persuade individuals of the principle so that readers can understand the
profound meanings of articles.
　　Chuang Tze， a great philosopher in the Warring States Period of
China， first 32. 　　　　　　 （use） the word “yuyan” in his
articles. He wrote，“Most of the fables need 33.

深长的道理，给人以启示的文学体裁，字数不多，但言简意赅。
28. expressing　动词mean后面通常接动词-ing形式作宾语，故填
expressing。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。寓言是用比喻性的故事来寄托意味
深长的道理，给人以启示的文学体裁，字数不多，但言简意赅。
29. through　寓言通常是“通过”虚构的故事来说明一个道理，故填
through。
30. a　这里需要一个不定冠词来构成a form of literature这一短语，故
填a。
31. stories　根据语境可知，这里提到的故事不止一个，故填其复数
形式stories。
32. used　根据语境可知，这里说庄子首次使用“寓言”一词，应该
用一般过去时，故填used。
33. to be read　这里显然是说寓言“被读”，另外need是情态动词，
故填to be read。
34. which　本句是对上文庄子那句话的进一步解释，故填关系代词
which来指代这句话，引导一个非限制性定语从句。
35. hidden　这里是说作者的观点和寓意被隐藏在故事中，故填表示
被动的过去分词hidden。

修饰它。
37. is　本句主语为story，且说明一个客观事实，故填is。
