A
Elena Yi dreamed of pursuing piano performance in college, never minding that her fingers could barely reach the length of an octave (八度音阶). Unable to fully play many works by Romantic-era composers including Beethoven and Brahms, she tried anyway— and in her determination to spend hours practicing a Chopin concerto, wound up injuring herself.
The efforts of Professor Carol Leone from the Southern Methodist University (SMU) are changing all that: twenty years ago, the school became the first major university in the U.S. to introduce smaller keyboards into its music program, leveling the playing field for Yi and other piano majors.
Yi, 21, tried one of the smaller keyboards, “I remember being really excited, because my hands could actually reach and play all the right notes,” she said.
For decades, few questioned the size of the traditional piano. For those with small hand spans (掌距), it’s difficult to properly play many works of Beethoven and Brahms. Those who attempt to play them either get used to skipping notes or risk injury with repeated play. Leone is familiar with such challenges. Born into a family of musicians, she favored classical music and pursued piano despite her small hand span, and earned a degree as a doctor in musical arts.
The idea of smaller keyboards first met resistance from some traditionalists. Leone also said that when she raised the issue with one Viennese professor, he told her there were already too many pianists anyway.
Though such resistance is fading, there are some very traditional people who think of piano as a competitive thing. Leone said, “This is art, not sport. It’s about making as much beautiful art as possible, and we should give everybody the opportunity to do that.”
1. Why did Elena Yi find it hard to play a Chopin concerto so well?
A. Her fingers got injured.
B. It was time-consuming.
C. Her hand spans were small.
D. The traditional piano was out of tune.
2. What is paragraph 4 intended to do?
A. Summarize the previous paragraphs.
B. Add some background information.
C. Introduce a new topic for discussion.
D. Provide some advice for pianists.
3. What is the Viennese professor’s attitude towards smaller keyboards?
A. Disapproving. B. Objective. C. Unclear. D. Positive.
【答案】1. C 2. B 3. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了为了给钢琴专业的学生提供公平的竞争环境，一位教授引入了更小的钢琴琴键，文章介绍了不同的人对此的不同看法和态度。
1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Elena Yi dreamed of pursuing piano performance in college, never minding that her fingers could barely reach the length of an octave.”（伊莲娜梦想着在大学里演奏钢琴，尽管她的手指只能勉强达到八度音阶的长度。）以及“she tried anyway—and in her determination to spend hours practicing a Chopin concerto, wound up injuring herself.”（她无论如何都尝试了——她决心花几个小时练习肖邦的协奏曲，结果却受伤了）可知，Elena Yi觉得很难把肖邦协奏曲演奏好是因为她的手跨度小。故选C。
【2题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“For decades, few questioned the size of the traditional piano. For those with small hand spans, it’s difficult to properly play many works of Beethoven and Brahms. Those who attempt to play them either get used to skipping notes or risk injury with repeated play. Leone is familiar with such challenges. Born into a family of musicians, she favored classical music and pursued piano despite her small hand span, and earned a degree as a doctor in musical arts.”（几十年来，很少有人质疑传统钢琴的尺寸。对于那些手跨度较小的人来说，很难正确演奏贝多芬和勃拉姆斯的许多作品。那些试图演奏它们的人要么习惯于跳过音符，要么冒着反复演奏而受伤的风险。塞拉利昂熟悉这些挑战。她出生于一个音乐世家，喜欢古典音乐，尽管手的跨度很小，但她还是喜欢钢琴，并获得了音乐艺术博士学位。）可知，第四段的目的是添加一些关于（手跨度小，难以完成曲目）背景信息。故选B。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The idea of smaller keyboards first met resistance from some traditionalists. Leone also said that when she raised the issue with one Viennese professor, he told her there were already too many pianists anyway.”（小键盘的想法首先遭到了一些传统主义者的抵制。里昂还说，当她向一位维也纳教授提出这个问题时，他告诉她，无论如何，这里的钢琴家已经太多了。）可知，反正钢琴家已经太多了，暗指如果你弹不了，多得是人能弹。以及最后一段中“Though such resistance is fading, there are some very traditional people who think of piano as a competitive thing.”（虽然这种抗拒正在消退，但仍有一些非常传统的人认为钢琴是一种竞争的东西。）可推知，这位维也纳教授不支持小琴键。故选A。
B
Litterati is an app that people can use to upload information about litter they collect outside, such as its appearance, material, location, and brand. Shared online, this information contributes to building a global database of “litter maps”, which can influence policy and packaging design.
“Society’s failure to solve the litter problem is not from a lack of trying. There have been public service announcements, and coastal cleanups. But I believe two components are missing from the discussion — community and data,” said Jeff Kirschner, the developer of Litterati app.
Uploading pictures to an app shows users that they are not the only ones picking up litter from public places and that others are invested in cleaning the planet, too. And the data accumulates rapidly, telling a story that helps people understand who picked up what, where, and when. In this way, people are encouraged to do more.
In San Francisco, the Litterati app was able to identify and map more than 5,000 pieces of litter in order to determine how much was caused by cigarettes specifically. Using this information, the city successfully challenged a lawsuit by tobacco companies and doubled an existing cigarette sales tax, bringing in US $4 million annual revenue (税收).
By joining forces with others using the same platform, individuals are able to take their anti-litter activism to another level. The power of combined data leads to more Extended Producer Responsibility, which is precisely what we want and advocate here — producers are forced to be responsible for dealing with their own products once consumers no longer find them useful and are incentivized to create more environmentally friendly packaging or better policies as a result of that new responsibility.
Litterati takes a refreshingly non-judgmental approach. It shows a positive we-can-do-it attitude. Just as Jeff Kirschner said, “Our goal isn’t to shame. It’s to provide transparency to the problem. We provide access to data and share insights with cities, citizens and businesses, guiding us all to identify the root cause of the problem, and make informed decisions of how to clean the planet.”
4. Why are tobacco companies mentioned?
A. To show the influence of Litterati.
B. To describe the details ofthe map.
C. To warn people ofthe harm of cigarettes.
D. To prove the large consumption oftobacco.
5. What does the underlined word “incentivized” in paragraph 5 most probably mean?
A. allowed. B. appointed. C. inspired. D. believed.
6. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Litter Maps: Make litter-picking a Fun Way
B. Litterati App: Guide People Where to Collect Litter
C. Litterati: Transparent Data for a Cleaner World
D. Litterati Campaign: Everyone Counts in Litter Picking
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一款应用程序 Literati，人们可以通过这款应用程序上传自己在户外收集的垃圾的信息，建立一个全球“垃圾地图”，当知道別人也在努力解决垃圾问题时，人们也会受到鼓励从而积投身其中。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Shared online, this information contributes to building a global database of “litter maps”, which can influence policy and packaging design. (这些信息在网上共享，有助于建立一个全球“垃圾地图”数据库，可以影响政策和包装设计)”和第四段“In San Francisco, the Litterati app was able to identify and map more than 5,000 pieces of litter in order to determine how much was caused by cigarettes specifically. Using this information the city successfully challenged a lawsuit by tobacco companies and doubled an existing cigarette sales tax, bringing in US $4 million annual revenue.(在旧金山，Litterati应用程序能够识别并绘制出5000多块垃圾，从而确定有多少垃圾是由香烟引起的。利用这一信息，该市成功地挑战了烟草公司的诉讼，将现有的香烟销售税提高了一倍，每年带来400万美元的收入)”可知，作者提到烟草公司是为了证明Litterati在帮助解决垃圾问题方面起到了作用。故选A。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第五段画线词前面内容“The power of combined data leads to more Extended Producer Responsibility, which is precisely what we want and advocate here—producers are forced to be responsible for dealing with their own products once consumers no longer find them useful(结合数据的力量导致了更广泛的生产者责任，这正是我们想要和提倡的——生产者被迫负责处理自己的产品，一旦消费者不再觉得它们有用)”可知，结合数据会让生产者意识到自己的责任，从而激励制定更好的政策或研发更环保的包装材料。所以incentivized为“激励”之意。故选C。
【6题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章主题段第一段“Litterati is an app that people can use to upload information about litter they collect outside, such as its appearance, material, location, and brand. Shared online, this information contributes to building a global database of “litter maps”, which can influence policy and packaging design.(Litterati是一个应用程序，人们可以用它上传他们在外面收集的垃圾的信息，比如它的外观、材料、位置和品牌。这些信息在网上共享，有助于建立全球垃圾地图数据库，从而影响政策和包装设计)”以及最后一段“It’s to provide transparency to the problem. We provide access to data and share insights with cities, citizens and businesses, guiding us all to identify the root cause of the problem, and make informed decisions of how to clean the planet.(这是为了给问题提供透明度。我们的目标是为问题提供透明度。我们提供数据访问，并与城市、公民和企业分享见解，指导我们所有人找出问题的根源，并就如何清洁地球作出明智的决定)”可知，人们通过 Literati可以上传垃圾的地点、分类等信息，因此让垃圾问题更加透明化，C项“Litterati：清洁世界的透明数据”符合文意。故选C。
C
“While animals can’t pick out precise numbers, they can understand that more is more. Interestingly, we know now that numerical（数值的）competence is present on almost every branch of the animal tree of life,” says Andreas Nieder, a neurobiologist from the University of Tuebingen. “Different groups of animals obviously developed this trait（特点）independently from others and that strongly indicates that it has to be of adaptive value.”
Honeybees, for instance, can remember the number of landmarks they pass when searching for food in order to find their way back to the hive. The last common ancestor between honeybees and primates lived about 600 million years ago. But still, they evolved numerical competence that, in many respects, is comparable to vertebrate（脊椎动物的）numerical competence. Also, for example, male frogs sing “advertisement” calls to attract females. The females, listening for the complexity of their calls, choose the male that sings the most calls.
Wolves are more likely to hunt successfully if they have the right number of wolves in their pack for the size of their prey（猎物）: With prey like deer, only around six to eight wolves are needed, while hunting wild ox requires a pack of nine to thirteen. Their prey also uses this concept to protect themselves from predators — deer tend to live in large herds to reduce the chance of any individual becoming prey. So obviously they are assessing the number of individuals in their groups for their everyday life situations.
Despite these many examples of numerical competence in animals, this subject has not gotten many first-hand studies. “Many of these behavioral findings in the wild have usually been collected as by-products or accidental findings of other research questions,” says Nieder. He argues that more research needs to be done to fully understand the numerical competence.
7. The phenomenon of animals having their own numerical competence shows that .
A. all groups of animals are related in some ways
B. numerical competence must have a survival benefit
C. the intelligence of animals varies with different environments
D. animals’ numerical competence is determined by their adaptability
8. What role does numerical competence play in wolves’ hunting?
A. It helps them form hunting groups.
B. It gives them more options to hunt.
C. It makes them discover more prey.
D. It offers them new skills to hunt.
9. How does the author mainly develop this text?
A. By listing figures. B. By asking questions.
C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons.
10. From which is the text probably taken?
A. A biology textbook. B. A health magazine.
C. A travel brochure. D. A research paper.
【答案】7. B 8. A 9. C 10. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。本文讲述最近一项研究，动物不仅具有理解数字的能力，而且这一能力还对它们的日常生活有着巨大的影响。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“Different groups of animals obviously developed this trait（特点）independently from others and that strongly indicates that it has to be of adaptive value.”以及第二段列举的例子可知，不同的动物群体明显地独立于其他动物发展出这种特殊的数字能力，这强烈地表明它必须具有适应性价值。由此可推知，动物具有的数字能力是为了生存需要。故选B。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“Wolves are more likely to hunt successfully if they have the right number of wolves in their pack for the size of their prey（猎物）: With prey like deer, only around six to eight wolves are needed, while hunting wild ox requires a pack of nine to thirteen.”可知，如果狼群中狼群的数量与猎物的大小相符，狼更有可能成功捕食:像鹿这样的猎物，只需要大约6到8只狼，而捕猎野牛则需要9到13只狼群。由此可知，数字能力在狼的狩猎中能帮助它们形成狩猎群体。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段Honeybees, for instance…; Also, for example, male frogs sing “advertisement” calls to attract females. ;第三段Wolves are more…和deer tend to live in large herds…可知，文章中作者是通过列举honeybees, frogs, wolves, deer这些例子来说明的。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。阅读文章，并根据最后一段Despite these many examples of numerical competence in animals, this subject has not gotten many first-hand studies. 可知，本文讲述最近一项研究，动物不仅具有理解数字的能力，而且这一能力还对它们的日常生活有着巨大的影响，所以本文应该选自一篇研究论文。故选D。
第二节（共 5 个小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。
For most people, life has become a burden on their shoulders, and its weight is growing heavier and heavier, until one day they can’t carry it anymore. So how can we design a life that is less complex and more meaningful? With minimalism (极简主义). ____11____ The following ways will assist you in your journey to living a simper yet fuller life.
____12____ Most people’s living space is filled with things that are never used and don’t contribute to their well-being. Separate the ones you do need from the ones you don’t, and throw the latter right into the dustin — or better, give them away to people who might actually benefit from them.
Appreciate all the amazing things you already have. We constantly compare ourselves to others who seem happier, more beautiful and more important than us. We try our best to imitate those we envy. ____13____ We need to stop comparing and accept ourselves for who we are, with all our imperfections. Take a moment to appreciate what you have.
Do one thing at a time. Minimalist living actually means making the most out of each and every moment. We’re usually carrying out different tasks at the same time. So whatever we are doing, our mind is partly wondering somewhere else. ____14____
Develop mindfulness. ____15____ Thus you need to develop mindfulness. Mindfulness means fully attending to what’s happening in the present. There are many ways one can do so. Perhaps the most common way is to sit for about 30 minutes somewhere comfortably with your upper back straight and pay full attention to your breath as it’s coming in and out through your nose. In this way, you won’t be distracted by your thoughts.
A. It is about enjoying life more with less.
B. Stop consuming products you don’t need.
C. Yet no matter how much we try, we always fail.
D. Get rid of things that don’t serve your happiness.
E. minimalist living requires a calm and undisturbed mind.
F. Stop multitasking and concentrate on a single thing at a time.
G. Unfortunately, our minds are filled with worries in our busy lives.
【答案】11. A 12. D 13. C 14. F 15. E
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。介绍了一些帮助人们过上简单而充实的生活的方法。
【11题详解】
上文“So how can we design a life that is less complex and more meaningful? With minimalism.(那么，我们怎样才能设计一个不那么复杂而又更有意义的生活呢？极简主义。)”说明我们要用极简主义设计一个不复杂而又更有意义的生活，选项A“这是关于用更少的资源享受更多的生活。”承接上文，解释了极简主义，耗费资源更少而更有意义。语义通顺合理。故选A项。
【12题详解】
下文“Most people’s living space is filled with things that are never used and don’t contribute to their well-being. Separate the ones you do need from the ones you don’t, and throw the latter right into the dustbin — or better, give them away to people who might actually benefit from them.(大多数人的生活空间都充满了从未用过的东西，对他们的健康没有好处。把你真正需要的和不需要的分开，把后者扔到垃圾箱里——或者更好，把它们送给那些可能真正从中受益的人。)”建议应该把生活空间中从未用过的东西扔掉或者送人，选项D“摆脱那些与你快乐无关的事情。”概括本段主题，把生活空间中那些无关的东西摆脱掉。语义通顺合理。故选D项。
【13题详解】
上文“We constantly compare ourselves to others who seem happier, more beautiful and more important than us. We try our best to imitate those we envy. (我们总是把自己和那些看起来比自己更快乐、更美丽、更重要的人进行比较。我们尽力模仿我们所羡慕的人。)”说明人们总是互相攀比并模仿自己羡慕的人，选项C“然而无论我们如何努力，我们总是失败。”承接上文，转折语义，说明这样做并不成功，引出下文“We need to stop comparing and accept ourselves for who we are, with all our imperfections. (我们需要停止比较，接受我们自己，接受我们所有的不完美。)”建议停止攀比，接受自己。语义通顺合理。故选C项。
【14题详解】
上文段首“Do one thing at a time. (一次只做一件事。)”概括了本段主题，一次做好一件事，选项F“停止一心多用，一次只专注一件事。”呼应段首，建议要一次专注于一件事。选项中concentrate on a single thing at a time和上文段首Do one thing at a time语义一致。故选F项。
【15题详解】
下文“Thus you need to develop mindfulness. Mindfulness means fully attending to what’s happening in the present. (因此你需要培养正念。正念意味着完全关注当下正在发生的事情。)”建议要培养正念，关注当下，选项E“极简主义生活需要一个平静和不受干扰的头脑。”和下文之间存在因果关系，因为生活需要平静不受干扰，所以要培养正念，关注当下。故选E项。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了中国第一位在空间站工作的女宇航员——王亚平，她曾经在2013年时就被选为神舟10号航天任务的机组人员，这次她和另外两位宇航员将在空间站内进行为期六个月的长时间太空飞行。
【36题详解】
考查介词。句意：10月16日上午，神舟十三号任务机组人员进入天宫空间站，开始了为期六个月的太空之旅，这是中国最长的太空飞行。根据空后的 October 16 morning可知，在10月16日上午，神舟十三号任务机组人员进入天宫空间站，在具体的某月某日的早上要用介词on。故填on。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：10月16日上午，神舟十三号任务机组人员进入天宫空间站，开始了为期六个月的太空之旅，这是中国最长的太空飞行。分析句子结构可知，“_______marks the beginning of their six-month journey inside the station in the country’s longest spaceflight”为非限定性定语从句，修饰前面的整句话，所以关系词指代前面的句子，在定语从句中做主语，用关系代词which。故填which。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：王亚萍成为中国第一位在中国空间站工作的女宇航员。分析句子结构可知，句中已经有谓语动词become，空处需要有非谓语做定语，当所修饰的名词前有the first等序数词修饰时，要用动词不定式做定语。故填to work。
【39题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：2013年4月，王亚平被选为神舟十号航天任务的机组成员，在天宫一号空间实验室上为6000多万名在校学生和教师进行了中国第一次在轨电视科学演讲。分析句子结构可知，空处需要谓语动词，主语Wang Yaping和select之间为被动关系，时态为一般过去时，所以空处要用一般过去时态的被动语态，主语第三人称，谓语单数形式。故填was selected。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：2013年4月，王亚平被选为神舟十号航天任务的机组成员，在天宫一号空间实验室为6000多万名在校学生和教师进行了中国第一次在轨电视科学演讲。分析句子结构，句中已经有谓语动词select，所以空处需要非谓语动词做状语，deliver和主句主语Wang Yaping之间存在主动关系，所以要用现在分词形式。故填delivering。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意：句意：2013年4月，王亚平被选为神舟十号航天任务的机组成员，在天宫一号空间实验室为6000多万名在校学生和教师进行了中国第一次在轨电视科学演讲。an audience of为固定短语，后面一般加数字，表示有多少名观众。故填an。
【42题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：2013年4月，王亚平被选为神舟十号航天任务的机组成员，在天宫一号空间实验室为6000多万名在校学生和教师进行了中国第一次在轨电视科学演讲。根据空前的more than 60 million可知，空处要用可数名词的复数形式。故填children。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意：临行前，王亚萍和她五岁的女儿互相分派任务。根据空前的her可知，空处要用名词作介词before的宾语，depart为动词 “离开”，其名词形式为departure。故填departure。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意：我希望她能照顾好自己，照顾好奶奶和爷爷，努力学习。空处要修饰动词短语look after，所以要用副词well。故填well。
【45题详解】
考查状语从句。句意：“她希望我为她和她的同学挑选星星，并让我挑选很多星星，以便她能与她的同学分享。”王亚平说。根据句意可知，她让我挑选很多的星星以便和她的同学分享，so that “以便”，引导目的状语从句。故填that。

47. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
I was an impatient mother and frustration always kept me from enjoying life, until some strange insects came to my family.
It was Friday. We were having friends over for dinner, but Mike had to stay late at work. I was now on my own to get everything ready for the night. I could feel my frustration increasing as I drove to pick up Haydn and Michael from school. I rushed them into the car and told them that we were making a few stops before heading home, and that they needed to help me tidy the house. Both of them started complaining immediately. I turned and gave them fair warning that I was not in the mood to listen. For the next hour, I dragged the boys from one place to the next…
Just as we finished our last task, the boys reminded me that we needed to stop at the pet store to pick up crickets (蟋蟀) for their lizards(蜥蜴). Fifteen minutes later, I pulled into the driveway with only forty-five minutes left to unpack the car, clean the house, and set the table before my guests arrived. How would I make it?
I started barking orders at the boys, but they were focused on pouring the crickets from the plastic bag into the top of their little cricket container. I just let off steam and yelled at them to hurry up.
I didn’t really know how it happened, but the next time I looked up, one hundred crickets were jumping all over my kitchen…
My frustration exploded. I could feel myself about to start yelling in a way I rarely do. I watched my two sweet boys try anxiously to chase the crickets, screaming with laughter. Strangely, I felt something different.
In that split second, I realized I had two choices. Could I continue feeling annoyed and angry, or could I let go and enjoy this silly moment?

Paragraph 1
I jumped off the chair and started chasing crickets with my boys.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2
Our guests arrived and we had a wonderful dinner party.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph l:
I jumped off the chair and started chasing crickets with my boys. They were everywhere. Every time we tried to put a cricket into the container, another one would jump out. We yelled with excitement, laughing uncontrollably. The clock was still ticking, but we didn’t care. Fifteen minutes later, we got all of the little guys into their box. Once we were done, my boys enthusiastically helped me get ready for the dinner. It became a game to see if we could make it in time. We were all in such a fabulous mood.
Paragraph2:
Our guests arrived and we had a wonderful dinner party. The boys helped me tell them all about our “strange insects problem”. All of us broke into laughter again. For weeks after, looking back on that day always made me crack a smile. That moment is a constant reminder to me that I should never let frustration keep me from enjoying life. Things would go wrong. Keep cool, and take a few deep breaths. Don’t let anger dominate you. Try to think of something that brings you joy. You’ll find something if you try.
