Text 10
A cat that many believed was killed along with its owner in a huge mudslide has been found three years later. A mudslide is a large mass of wet earth that suddenly and quickly moves down the side of a mountain. The natural disaster happened in January 2018 in the American state of California.
The Animal Shelter Assistance Program in Santa Barbara County says someone brought the cat to the organization last month. The animal's name is Patches. A microchip exam confirmed her identity.
Patches had been missing since January 9, 2018. The mudslide killed 23 people, including the cat's owner josie Gower. The destruction of the mudslide was so terrible that the bodies of two victims were never found.
The ASAP shelter says Patches was found less than 400 meters from where her home used to be. She was reunited with Gower's partner, Norm Borgatello, on December 31.
“Though we don't know exactly what she's been doing with her life for the past three years, we can see that both Patches and Norm are thrilled to be reunited,” the shelter said in a Facebook post.

Mark Bertram lost the tips of two fingers at work in 2018 when his hand became trapped in a fan belt. “It’s life-changing but it’s not life-ending,” he says.
After two surgeries and occupational therapy, Bertram decided to ask Eric Catalano, a tattoo(文身) artist, to create fingernail tattoos. The idea made everyone in the studio laugh—until they saw the final result. “The mood changed,” Catalano recalls from his Eternal Ink Tattoo Studio in Hecker, Illinois. “Everything turned from funny to wow.”
Catalano posted a photo of the tattoos, and it eventually was viewed by millions of people around the world. The viral photo pushed Catalano, 40, further into the world of paramedical(医疗辅助的) tattooing. Now people who want to cover their life-altering scars come from as far away as Ireland to visit his shop.
Leslie Pollan, a dog breeder, was bitten on the face by a puppy. She underwent countless surgeries but those gave her no hope. She ultimately traveled six hours for a session with Catalano. He camouflaged Pollan’s lip scar, giving her back confidence.
Though he is now known for his talent with intricate(错综复杂的) fingernail, Catalano uses the techniques he picked up years ago while helping breast cancer survivors. Those tattoos are among the most common paramedical requests. His grandmother had breast cancer, and her battle with the disease is one reason Catalano is so dedicated to helping those with the diagnosis.
Catalano performs up to eight reconstructive tattoos each “Wellness Wednesday”. While he charges $100 per regular tattoo, he doesn’t charge for paramedical tattoos: A GoFundMe page established last year brought in more than S16,000, allowing Catalano to donate his work.
“Financially, it doesn’t make sense,” Catalano says. “But every time I see emotions from my customers, I am 100 percent sure this is something that I can’t stop doing.”
24. How did people in the studio react to Bertram’s idea at first?
A. They took it lightly. B. They found it creative.
C. They were confused. D. They were impressed.
25. What does the underlined word “camouflaged” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Exposed. B. Ignored. C. Hid. D. Removed.
26. What does Catalano say about his work with paramedical tattoos?
A. It is flexible. B. It is demanding. C. It is profitable. D. It is rewarding.
27. Which of the following can best describe Catalano?
A. Humorous and experienced. B. Devoted and generous.
C. Cooperative and grateful. D. Professional and tolerant.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27.B
【分析】本篇是记叙文。主要介绍了文身艺术家Catalano帮助身体遭遇不幸的人，用文身艺术弥补他们的缺陷，帮助他们重拾信心；且他认为免费为别人医疗文身是一件幸事。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The idea made everyone in the studio laugh”可知，同事们并没有严肃对待这个想法。故选A。
【25题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段最后一句“Now people who want to cover their life-altering scars come from as far away as Ireland to visit his shop.”可知，文身的目的是遮盖伤疤，第四段是举例子。故选C。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据末段Catalano所说，顾客满意的心情是他做这件事情最大的回报。故选D。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章主人公认真对待每一次顾客及那么多顾客慕名而来，可知他是一位尽职的艺术家；倒数两段告诉读者对于医疗文身主人公是免费的，他不为利益而做。故选B。
C
The Gata used to look annoyed when they received power bills that routinely topped $200. Last September the couple moved into a 1,500-square-foot home in Premier Gardens, an area of 95 “zero-energy homes” (ZEH) just outside town. Now they're actually eager to see their electricity bills. The grand total over the 10 months they've lived in the three-bedroom house: $75. For the past two months, they haven’t paid a cent.
ZEH communities are the leading edge of technologies that might someday create houses that produce as much energy as they consume. Premier Gardens is one of a half-dozen subdivisions (住宅开发项目) in California where every home cuts power consumption by 50%, mostly by using low power appliances and solar panels.
Aside from the panels on the roof, Premier Gardens looks like a community of traditional homes. But inside, special windows cut power bills by blocking solar heat in summer and keeping indoor warmth winter.
The rest of the energy savings comes from the solar units. They don't just feed the home they serve. If they generate more power than the home is using, the excess flows into the utility's power grid(电网). The residents are billed by “net metering”: they pay for the amount of power that they get from the grid, minus the kilowatts(千瓦) they feed into it. If a home generates more power than it uses, the bill is zero.
That sounds like a bad deal for the power company, but it's not. Solar homes produce the most power on the hot sunny afternoons when everyone rushes home to turn up the air conditioner. "It helps us lower usage at peak power times," says solar expert Mike Keesee. “That lets us avoid building costly plants or buying expensive power at peak usage time.”
What’s not to like? Mostly the costs. The special features can add $25,000 or more to the purchase price of a house. Tax breaks bring the cost down, especially in California, but in many states ZEHs can be extremely expensive. For the consumer, it's a matter of paying now for the hardware to save later on the power bill.
28. Why is the Gata eager to see their electricity bills now?
A. They want to cut down their utility' expenses.
B. They want to know if they are able to pay.
C. They want to see how much they have saved.
D. They want to avoid being overcharged.
29. What is special about the ZEH communities?
A. They are built in harmony with the environment.
B. They have created cutting edge technologies.
C. They are subdivided into half a dozen sections.
D. They aim to be independent in power supply.
30. What does the "net metering" practice mean to the power company?
A. More pressure at peak time B. Reduced operational costs.
C. Increased electricity output. D. Less profits in the short term.
31. The author believes that buying a house in a ZEH community __________.
A. is a worthy investment in the long run B. is but a dream for average consumers
C. gives the owner great tax benefits D. contributes to environmental protection
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. A
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了ZEH社区的特别之处和发展前景。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The Gata used to look annoyed when they received power bills that routinely topped $200.（过去，当Gata夫妇收到通常超过200美元电费账单时，他们看起来很恼火。）”以及后文“The grand total over the 10 months they've lived in the three-bedroom house: $75. For the past two months, they haven’t paid a cent.（他们在这所三居室房子里住了10个月，总共花了75美元。过去两个月，他们一分钱都没付。）”可知，Gata夫妇现在急于看到他们的电费账单想知道他们节省了多少钱。故选C。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“But inside, special windows cut power bills by blocking solar heat in summer and keeping indoor warmth winter.（但在室内，特殊的窗户在夏天阻挡太阳热量，在冬天保持室内温暖，从而节省了电费。）”可推断，ZEH社区特别之处在于他们的目标是在电力供应方面独立。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Tax breaks bring the cost down, especially in California, but in many states ZEHs can be extremely expensive.（税收减免降低了成本，尤其是在加州，但在许多州ZEH可能非常昂贵。）”可知，“电网计量”可使电力公司降低运营成本。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“For the consumer, it's a matter of paying now for the hardware to save later on the power bill.（对于消费者来说，现在花钱买硬件就可以省下以后的电费。）”可推断，作者认为，从长远来看，在ZEH社区买房是一项值得的投资。故选A。
D
If you’ve been painting for a while, you would have heard about some of the age-old “rules” that regularly go the rounds.
Regardless, we tend to love art for what it is and thank goodness— because art would have died out long ago if its success depended on whether the artists followed all the rules in making it. To be fair, a lot of rules are tried-and-true-procedures, ways of doing things that have proved their worth over time. But rules regarding composition (构图), tone and color are all there to be broken if we dare.
Black paint was almost banned by the Impressionists, who preferred to get their darks from mixtures rather than use black in any way. However, John Singer Sargent certainly used black, as did Turner (who is widely regarded as the father of Impressionism), and Renoir is quoted as saying ‘‘I’ve been for 40 years discovering that the queen of all colors is black”.
Even today, many artists will not consider using black paint and this has become one of the “rules”. You’ll often hear that “black is a dead color”— I don’t know who first used that phrase but it is so well-worn that it has become gospel (真理).
Black is still in the palettes (调色板) of many portrait artists and, interestingly, the Swedish artist Anders Zorn famously often used a palette of just black, white, vermilion and yellow ochre, and his paintings are anything but dead! It is well worth the time to look at Zorn’s limited-palette work and marvel at what can be obtained from those four colors.
I tend to use black in my rainy cityscapes. My favorite colors to use with black are some amazing grays that are possible without too much complication. The rebellion is already underway and black paint is being squeezed out of tubes all over the world.
Are you coming over to the dark side?
32. What is the author’s attitude towards breaking rules in art?
A. Positive. B. Carefree. C. Doubtful. D. Unfavorable.
33. Why are the painters mentioned in the third paragraph?
A. To highlight the value of old rules.
B. To provide useful instruction for readers.
C. To illustrate actual significance of black paint.
D. To recommend distinguished artists in impressionism.
34. What is Anders Zorn known for?
A. Having large numbers of favorite palettes.
B. Preferring traditional styles to modern ones.
C. Using simple colors for expressive paintings.
D. Classifying interesting portraits as dead works.
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. The reflection on the trend of art. B. The invitation of the use of black.
C. The guidance on painting cityscapes. D. The consequence of following
【答案】32.A 33.C 34.C 35.B
【分析】本文是一篇议论文。人们似乎总把黑色和死气沉沉联系起来。画家是否该对黑色颜料退避三舍呢？不妨打破陈“规”，把黑色大胆加入调色盘。
【32题详解】
态度判断题。本题考查考生根据文章相关信息洞悉观点态度的能力。根据第二段末句 “But rules regarding composition，tone and color are all there to be broken if we dare．”可知作者支持打破常规。故选A。
【33题详解】
写作意图题。本题考查考生根据文章相关信息理解行文逻辑的能力。根据第三段末句 “However，John Singer Sargent certainly used black，as did Turner（who is widely regarded as the father of Impressionism），and Renoir is quoted as saying‘I’ve been for 40 years discovering that the queen of all colors is black’．”可知作者以三位著名画家钟爱黑色的事例为证，支撑了画家不应墨守成规而拒绝黑色的观点，也体现了黑色颜料在绘画当中的重要性。故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。本题考查考生识别和理解具体信息的能力。根据第五段首句“Black is still in the palettes of many portrait artists and，interestingly，the Swedish artist Anders Zorn famously often used a palette of just black，white，vermilion and yellow ochre，and his paintings are anything but dead!”可知该画家以用色简单而画作绝不乏味而闻名。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。本题考查考生对文章主旨要义的归纳和概括能力。根据全文，可知本文主要是关于作者对于打破规则、运用黑色颜料的讨论和宣扬。故选B。

上文“More than ever before, students all over the world are turning to online learning to further their education.（世界各地的学生比以往任何时候都更多地转向在线学习来进一步学习）”讲到很多人倾向于在线学习。下文“In order to help you as an online learner develop better study skills, keep reading to see some of the best study tips.（为了帮助你作为一个在线学习者，发展更好的学习技巧，请继续阅读一些最好的学习技巧）”讲的是作者在下文会提供一些好的学习技巧和建议。由此可以猜测，设空处需要一个承上启下的过渡句。G项“Despite its huge benefits like added flexibility, this route can be overwhelming for people.（尽管它有很多好处，比如增加了灵活性，但这条路线对人们来说是压倒性的）”中的“Despite its huge benefits”与上文一致，“this route can be overwhelming for people”与下文一致。故选G。
【37题详解】
根据小标题“Practice Good Time Management”可知这一段主要讲时间的管理。设空处应该也是围绕这一中心大意展开的。E项“The better you manage your time, the easier it will be to achieve your goals.（你的时间管理得越好，就越容易实现你的目标）”与上文一致。故选E。
【38题详解】
上文“Of course, distractions are unique to each individual and may also depend on circumstances.（当然，干扰是因人而异的，也可能取决于环境）”说明干扰因人而异，各有不同，此处承接上文，讲的是每个人都有适合自己的消除干扰的方法，D项“Ultimately, you will need to find what exactly works best for you.（最终，你需要找到最适合你的方法）”与上文一致。故选D。
【39题详解】
上文“This is why it is important to build as many relationships as possible not only with your peers but with professors too.（这就是为什么要建立尽可能多的关系，不仅是与你的同学，而且与教授）”说明要建立尽可能多的关系的原因，设空处承接上文所讲，应是对上一句的补充说明。C 项“Engage in as many discussions and group sessions as possible.（尽可能多地参与讨论和小组会议）”是对上一句的补充说明，与上文一致。故选C。
【40题详解】
根据小标题“Create A Dedicated Study Space.（创造一个专门的学习空间）”可知这一段主要讲如何创造一个专门的学习空间。下文“You needn’t recreate a proper university lecture room. Instead set up a study space to which you dedicate (致力） your studies to. Whether it’s in your own home or at the local library, it doesn’t really matter. What is important is that you create a space that is not only quiet but will be effective as well.（你不需要重建一个正规的大学讲堂。相反，你应该为自己设置一个学习空间。无论是在你自己家里还是在当地的图书馆，这都不重要。重要的是，你要创造一个不仅安静而且高效的空间）”，围绕创造一个专门的学习空间。设空处位于段首，应是用于引出下文。A 项“This tip is actually a whole lot simpler than people think.（这条建议实际上比人们想象的要简单得多）”与下文一致，其中simpler对应下文的needn’t 。故选A。

【分析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家对于圣诞老人的新发现，以及人们心目中的圣诞老人是什么样的。
【56题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：英国牛津大学的科学家认为他们发现了一块属于圣诞老人的骨头，他的真名是圣尼古拉斯。分析可知，设空处引导定语从句，关系词代替先行词Santa Claus在从句中充当name的定语，应用关系代词whose。故填whose。
【57题详解】

【58题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意：科学家说这根骨头来自圣尼古拉斯生活的地方。分析可知，设空处引导宾语从句，从句成分完整，但缺少地点状语，应用连接副词where引导。故填where。
【59题详解】
考查副词。句意：一位考古学家说：“这块骨头……表明我们可能在看圣尼古拉斯本人的遗骸。”分析可知，此处应用副词修饰动词could be looking。故填possibly。
【60题详解】
考查名词。句意：一位考古学家说：“这块骨头……表明我们可能在看圣尼古拉斯本人的遗骸。”分析可知，此处应填名词作动词短语look at的宾语，remain“遗体；残骸”符合语境，作此意时常为复数形式。故填remains。
【61题详解】
考查介词。句意：有故事说他偷偷地给穷人送礼物。根据句意可知，此处为固定短语give sth. to sb.“给某人某物”。故填to。
【62题详解】
考查被动语态。句意：他的名字可以缩写为圣诞老人。结合句意和can be可知，此处应填动词的过去分词形式构成被动语态，形容词short对应的动词为shorten，意为“缩短”，其过去分词为shortened。故填shortened。
【63题详解】
考查形容词。句意：圣诞老人通常被视为一个体重过重，快乐，笑容满面，留着白胡子的人。分析可知，设空处应用形容词和上文的over-weight，happy一起作man的定语，smiling“笑容满面的”符合语境。故填smiling。
【64题详解】
考查连词。句意：他穿着一件红色的外套，白色的皮领和袖口，红色的裤子，黑色的皮带和黑色的靴子。分析可知，此处应用并列连词and连接名词词组 a red coat，red trousers，a black leather belt和black boots，一起作为wears的宾语。故填and。
【65题详解】
考查冠词。句意：他住在北极，在那里他有一个玩具制造车间。结合句意“北极”为固定表达the North Pole。故填the。

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,
I’m Li Hua, from Senior 3. My topic today is “Say No to Students’ Smartphone Use”.
Undoubtedly, with smartphone ownership among students increasing sharply, the smartphone have transformed the way we communicate, making it easier to spread information.
But there’s no doubt that they can be a major headache on campus. First, the temptation to check social media or text a classmate during class can be a distraction for students, and a challenge for educators. Second, smartphone use is feeding an addiction and stunting students’ development of face-to-face communication skills. Third, some students spend lots of time on smartphones watching short videos, googling test answers and even cyberbullying.
Its disadvantages outweigh its advantages. Thus, I’m advocating “Say No to Students’ Smartphone Use” by leaving our smartphones at home.

Right before Thanksgiving, I prayed, “Lord please make me a blessing to others as Santa”.
A week later as my husband and I were preparing for this year’s Santa visits with my Mrs. Claus basket, we discovered a letter to Santa from a young mother named Mary, who was ill and was asking if there was a Santa and if miracles did happen that her young children would have a good Christmas because she was told by doctors that it could be her last. In it was her name, phone number and address.
I tried to make contact with Mary, but however many times I tried, I had no luck in getting someone to answer the phone. One week before Christmas, I decided to make a call one more time.
This time a woman answered the phone. I discovered that it was Mary’s mother. She first said that no one lived there by the name of Mary. I had two choices: to thank her and hang up or keep trying. I decided to continue and explained that I was Mrs. Claus and that we had found a letter written to Santa by Mary at this telephone number, expressing the desire to help her kids. She was in shock and told me that Mary had had an operation two weeks before.
The mother started crying as we continued talking. In the end, she said she would ask Mary to call me back and we would talk more. The next day, as promised, I received a phone call from Mary. We talked about her children. She gave me their names, ages, and a little about them. I told her that we wanted to fulfill her wishes and make her dream come true this Christmas to help her family. She cried and I did too as we spoke. Before hanging up, she said that she was happy that her children would have a good Christmas.
In the following days, we were busy making preparations. Much to our delight, everything was ready just before the Christmas Eve. We waited eagerly for the daybreak.
注意：
1、续写词数应为150左右；
2、请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
On Christmas morning, we arrived at Mary’s home.
Paragraph 2:
The time went by quickly and it was time to say goodbye.
【参考范文】
Paragraph 1:
On Christmas morning, we arrived at Mary’s home. It was a dimly lit home, small and shabby, with little furniture in it. “Merry Christmas!” we said in unison as we walked into the home. A young frail-looking mother came up, a look of confusion on her face. Immediately, we introduced ourselves. She held back her urge to cry and managed a smile. Her children, shy around strangers, just hid behind their mother and peeked from time to time. Having received presents from us, they eagerly unwrapped them, initial shyness giving way to utter delight. The whole family thanked us sincerely. Afterwards, we had fun together celebrating Christmas.
Paragraph 2:
The time went by quickly and it was time to say goodbye. The children were now so attached to us that they followed us out of the home. We crouched down, held their hands, and pulled them into our arms. Out of expectations, they planted affectionate kisses on our foreheads. Their mother stood at the door, waving, tears of happiness welling up in her eyes. On the way back home, I touched where the kiss lay and felt a sense of warmth surging through me. I was happy that I helped a mother fulfill her wishes and realized that being Santa for others is what Christmas is all about.

M: Hey Barbara, what a coincidence! Are you here for a coffee too?

M: I was on vacation. Have you ever been to China?
W: Yes, I taught English there for a couple of years. That was about a decade ago.
M: I was there this winter. China is developing so quickly now. What impressed me most is their train system.

M: You read my mind. The train was so fast and clean. Also, it's very convenient to pay with the cell phone in almost every store, big or small.
W: That's so cool. They didn't have that when I was there. I think I will go back at some point.
M: Have you been thinking of doing so?

Text 10
A cat that many believed was killed along with its owner in a huge mudslide has been found three years later. A mudslide is a large mass of wet earth that suddenly and quickly moves down the side of a mountain. The natural disaster happened in January 2018 in the American state of California.
The Animal Shelter Assistance Program in Santa Barbara County says someone brought the cat to the organization last month. The animal's name is Patches. A microchip exam confirmed her identity.
Patches had been missing since January 9, 2018. The mudslide killed 23 people, including the cat's owner josie Gower. The destruction of the mudslide was so terrible that the bodies of two victims were never found.
The ASAP shelter says Patches was found less than 400 meters from where her home used to be. She was reunited with Gower's partner, Norm Borgatello, on December 31.
“Though we don't know exactly what she's been doing with her life for the past three years, we can see that both Patches and Norm are thrilled to be reunited,” the shelter said in a Facebook post.

Mark Bertram lost the tips of two fingers at work in 2018 when his hand became trapped in a fan belt. “It’s life-changing but it’s not life-ending,” he says.
After two surgeries and occupational therapy, Bertram decided to ask Eric Catalano, a tattoo(文身) artist, to create fingernail tattoos. The idea made everyone in the studio laugh—until they saw the final result. “The mood changed,” Catalano recalls from his Eternal Ink Tattoo Studio in Hecker, Illinois. “Everything turned from funny to wow.”
Catalano posted a photo of the tattoos, and it eventually was viewed by millions of people around the world. The viral photo pushed Catalano, 40, further into the world of paramedical(医疗辅助的) tattooing. Now people who want to cover their life-altering scars come from as far away as Ireland to visit his shop.
Leslie Pollan, a dog breeder, was bitten on the face by a puppy. She underwent countless surgeries but those gave her no hope. She ultimately traveled six hours for a session with Catalano. He camouflaged Pollan’s lip scar, giving her back confidence.
Though he is now known for his talent with intricate(错综复杂的) fingernail, Catalano uses the techniques he picked up years ago while helping breast cancer survivors. Those tattoos are among the most common paramedical requests. His grandmother had breast cancer, and her battle with the disease is one reason Catalano is so dedicated to helping those with the diagnosis.
Catalano performs up to eight reconstructive tattoos each “Wellness Wednesday”. While he charges $100 per regular tattoo, he doesn’t charge for paramedical tattoos: A GoFundMe page established last year brought in more than S16,000, allowing Catalano to donate his work.
“Financially, it doesn’t make sense,” Catalano says. “But every time I see emotions from my customers, I am 100 percent sure this is something that I can’t stop doing.”
24. How did people in the studio react to Bertram’s idea at first?
A. They took it lightly. B. They found it creative.
C. They were confused. D. They were impressed.
25. What does the underlined word “camouflaged” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Exposed. B. Ignored. C. Hid. D. Removed.
26. What does Catalano say about his work with paramedical tattoos?
A. It is flexible. B. It is demanding. C. It is profitable. D. It is rewarding.
27. Which of the following can best describe Catalano?
A. Humorous and experienced. B. Devoted and generous.
C. Cooperative and grateful. D. Professional and tolerant.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27.B
【分析】本篇是记叙文。主要介绍了文身艺术家Catalano帮助身体遭遇不幸的人，用文身艺术弥补他们的缺陷，帮助他们重拾信心；且他认为免费为别人医疗文身是一件幸事。
【24题详解】

C
The Gata used to look annoyed when they received power bills that routinely topped $200. Last September the couple moved into a 1,500-square-foot home in Premier Gardens, an area of 95 “zero-energy homes” (ZEH) just outside town. Now they're actually eager to see their electricity bills. The grand total over the 10 months they've lived in the three-bedroom house: $75. For the past two months, they haven’t paid a cent.
ZEH communities are the leading edge of technologies that might someday create houses that produce as much energy as they consume. Premier Gardens is one of a half-dozen subdivisions (住宅开发项目) in California where every home cuts power consumption by 50%, mostly by using low power appliances and solar panels.
Aside from the panels on the roof, Premier Gardens looks like a community of traditional homes. But inside, special windows cut power bills by blocking solar heat in summer and keeping indoor warmth winter.
The rest of the energy savings comes from the solar units. They don't just feed the home they serve. If they generate more power than the home is using, the excess flows into the utility's power grid(电网). The residents are billed by “net metering”: they pay for the amount of power that they get from the grid, minus the kilowatts(千瓦) they feed into it. If a home generates more power than it uses, the bill is zero.
That sounds like a bad deal for the power company, but it's not. Solar homes produce the most power on the hot sunny afternoons when everyone rushes home to turn up the air conditioner. "It helps us lower usage at peak power times," says solar expert Mike Keesee. “That lets us avoid building costly plants or buying expensive power at peak usage time.”
What’s not to like? Mostly the costs. The special features can add $25,000 or more to the purchase price of a house. Tax breaks bring the cost down, especially in California, but in many states ZEHs can be extremely expensive. For the consumer, it's a matter of paying now for the hardware to save later on the power bill.
28. Why is the Gata eager to see their electricity bills now?
A. They want to cut down their utility' expenses.
B. They want to know if they are able to pay.
C. They want to see how much they have saved.
D. They want to avoid being overcharged.
29. What is special about the ZEH communities?
A. They are built in harmony with the environment.
B. They have created cutting edge technologies.
C. They are subdivided into half a dozen sections.
D. They aim to be independent in power supply.
30. What does the "net metering" practice mean to the power company?
A. More pressure at peak time B. Reduced operational costs.
C. Increased electricity output. D. Less profits in the short term.
31. The author believes that buying a house in a ZEH community __________.
A. is a worthy investment in the long run B. is but a dream for average consumers
C. gives the owner great tax benefits D. contributes to environmental protection
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. A
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了ZEH社区的特别之处和发展前景。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The Gata used to look annoyed when they received power bills that routinely topped $200.（过去，当Gata夫妇收到通常超过200美元电费账单时，他们看起来很恼火。）”以及后文“The grand total over the 10 months they've lived in the three-bedroom house: $75. For the past two months, they haven’t paid a cent.（他们在这所三居室房子里住了10个月，总共花了75美元。过去两个月，他们一分钱都没付。）”可知，Gata夫妇现在急于看到他们的电费账单想知道他们节省了多少钱。故选C。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“But inside, special windows cut power bills by blocking solar heat in summer and keeping indoor warmth winter.（但在室内，特殊的窗户在夏天阻挡太阳热量，在冬天保持室内温暖，从而节省了电费。）”可推断，ZEH社区特别之处在于他们的目标是在电力供应方面独立。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Tax breaks bring the cost down, especially in California, but in many states ZEHs can be extremely expensive.（税收减免降低了成本，尤其是在加州，但在许多州ZEH可能非常昂贵。）”可知，“电网计量”可使电力公司降低运营成本。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“For the consumer, it's a matter of paying now for the hardware to save later on the power bill.（对于消费者来说，现在花钱买硬件就可以省下以后的电费。）”可推断，作者认为，从长远来看，在ZEH社区买房是一项值得的投资。故选A。
D
If you’ve been painting for a while, you would have heard about some of the age-old “rules” that regularly go the rounds.
Regardless, we tend to love art for what it is and thank goodness— because art would have died out long ago if its success depended on whether the artists followed all the rules in making it. To be fair, a lot of rules are tried-and-true-procedures, ways of doing things that have proved their worth over time. But rules regarding composition (构图), tone and color are all there to be broken if we dare.
Black paint was almost banned by the Impressionists, who preferred to get their darks from mixtures rather than use black in any way. However, John Singer Sargent certainly used black, as did Turner (who is widely regarded as the father of Impressionism), and Renoir is quoted as saying ‘‘I’ve been for 40 years discovering that the queen of all colors is black”.
Even today, many artists will not consider using black paint and this has become one of the “rules”. You’ll often hear that “black is a dead color”— I don’t know who first used that phrase but it is so well-worn that it has become gospel (真理).
Black is still in the palettes (调色板) of many portrait artists and, interestingly, the Swedish artist Anders Zorn famously often used a palette of just black, white, vermilion and yellow ochre, and his paintings are anything but dead! It is well worth the time to look at Zorn’s limited-palette work and marvel at what can be obtained from those four colors.
I tend to use black in my rainy cityscapes. My favorite colors to use with black are some amazing grays that are possible without too much complication. The rebellion is already underway and black paint is being squeezed out of tubes all over the world.
Are you coming over to the dark side?
32. What is the author’s attitude towards breaking rules in art?
A. Positive. B. Carefree. C. Doubtful. D. Unfavorable.
33. Why are the painters mentioned in the third paragraph?
A. To highlight the value of old rules.
B. To provide useful instruction for readers.
C. To illustrate actual significance of black paint.
D. To recommend distinguished artists in impressionism.
34. What is Anders Zorn known for?
A. Having large numbers of favorite palettes.
B. Preferring traditional styles to modern ones.
C. Using simple colors for expressive paintings.
D. Classifying interesting portraits as dead works.
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. The reflection on the trend of art. B. The invitation of the use of black.
C. The guidance on painting cityscapes. D. The consequence of following
【答案】32.A 33.C 34.C 35.B
【分析】本文是一篇议论文。人们似乎总把黑色和死气沉沉联系起来。画家是否该对黑色颜料退避三舍呢？不妨打破陈“规”，把黑色大胆加入调色盘。
【32题详解】
态度判断题。本题考查考生根据文章相关信息洞悉观点态度的能力。根据第二段末句 “But rules regarding composition，tone and color are all there to be broken if we dare．”可知作者支持打破常规。故选A。
【33题详解】
写作意图题。本题考查考生根据文章相关信息理解行文逻辑的能力。根据第三段末句 “However，John Singer Sargent certainly used black，as did Turner（who is widely regarded as the father of Impressionism），and Renoir is quoted as saying‘I’ve been for 40 years discovering that the queen of all colors is black’．”可知作者以三位著名画家钟爱黑色的事例为证，支撑了画家不应墨守成规而拒绝黑色的观点，也体现了黑色颜料在绘画当中的重要性。故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。本题考查考生识别和理解具体信息的能力。根据第五段首句“Black is still in the palettes of many portrait artists and，interestingly，the Swedish artist Anders Zorn famously often used a palette of just black，white，vermilion and yellow ochre，and his paintings are anything but dead!”可知该画家以用色简单而画作绝不乏味而闻名。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。本题考查考生对文章主旨要义的归纳和概括能力。根据全文，可知本文主要是关于作者对于打破规则、运用黑色颜料的讨论和宣扬。故选B。

【分析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家对于圣诞老人的新发现，以及人们心目中的圣诞老人是什么样的。
【56题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：英国牛津大学的科学家认为他们发现了一块属于圣诞老人的骨头，他的真名是圣尼古拉斯。分析可知，设空处引导定语从句，关系词代替先行词Santa Claus在从句中充当name的定语，应用关系代词whose。故填whose。
【57题详解】
考查时态。句意：他死于公元343。此处为句子谓语动词，结合时间状语in the year 343可知陈述过去的事情，应用一般过去时。故填died。
【58题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意：科学家说这根骨头来自圣尼古拉斯生活的地方。分析可知，设空处引导宾语从句，从句成分完整，但缺少地点状语，应用连接副词where引导。故填where。
【59题详解】
考查副词。句意：一位考古学家说：“这块骨头……表明我们可能在看圣尼古拉斯本人的遗骸。”分析可知，此处应用副词修饰动词could be looking。故填possibly。
【60题详解】
考查名词。句意：一位考古学家说：“这块骨头……表明我们可能在看圣尼古拉斯本人的遗骸。”分析可知，此处应填名词作动词短语look at的宾语，remain“遗体；残骸”符合语境，作此意时常为复数形式。故填remains。
【61题详解】
考查介词。句意：有故事说他偷偷地给穷人送礼物。根据句意可知，此处为固定短语give sth. to sb.“给某人某物”。故填to。
【62题详解】
考查被动语态。句意：他的名字可以缩写为圣诞老人。结合句意和can be可知，此处应填动词的过去分词形式构成被动语态，形容词short对应的动词为shorten，意为“缩短”，其过去分词为shortened。故填shortened。
【63题详解】
考查形容词。句意：圣诞老人通常被视为一个体重过重，快乐，笑容满面，留着白胡子的人。分析可知，设空处应用形容词和上文的over-weight，happy一起作man的定语，smiling“笑容满面的”符合语境。故填smiling。
【64题详解】
考查连词。句意：他穿着一件红色的外套，白色的皮领和袖口，红色的裤子，黑色的皮带和黑色的靴子。分析可知，此处应用并列连词and连接名词词组 a red coat，red trousers，a black leather belt和black boots，一起作为wears的宾语。故填and。
【65题详解】
考查冠词。句意：他住在北极，在那里他有一个玩具制造车间。结合句意“北极”为固定表达the North Pole。故填the。

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,
I’m Li Hua, from Senior 3. My topic today is “Say No to Students’ Smartphone Use”.
Undoubtedly, with smartphone ownership among students increasing sharply, the smartphone have transformed the way we communicate, making it easier to spread information.
But there’s no doubt that they can be a major headache on campus. First, the temptation to check social media or text a classmate during class can be a distraction for students, and a challenge for educators. Second, smartphone use is feeding an addiction and stunting students’ development of face-to-face communication skills. Third, some students spend lots of time on smartphones watching short videos, googling test answers and even cyberbullying.
Its disadvantages outweigh its advantages. Thus, I’m advocating “Say No to Students’ Smartphone Use” by leaving our smartphones at home.

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。
Right before Thanksgiving, I prayed, “Lord please make me a blessing to others as Santa”.
A week later as my husband and I were preparing for this year’s Santa visits with my Mrs. Claus basket, we discovered a letter to Santa from a young mother named Mary, who was ill and was asking if there was a Santa and if miracles did happen that her young children would have a good Christmas because she was told by doctors that it could be her last. In it was her name, phone number and address.
I tried to make contact with Mary, but however many times I tried, I had no luck in getting someone to answer the phone. One week before Christmas, I decided to make a call one more time.
This time a woman answered the phone. I discovered that it was Mary’s mother. She first said that no one lived there by the name of Mary. I had two choices: to thank her and hang up or keep trying. I decided to continue and explained that I was Mrs. Claus and that we had found a letter written to Santa by Mary at this telephone number, expressing the desire to help her kids. She was in shock and told me that Mary had had an operation two weeks before.
The mother started crying as we continued talking. In the end, she said she would ask Mary to call me back and we would talk more. The next day, as promised, I received a phone call from Mary. We talked about her children. She gave me their names, ages, and a little about them. I told her that we wanted to fulfill her wishes and make her dream come true this Christmas to help her family. She cried and I did too as we spoke. Before hanging up, she said that she was happy that her children would have a good Christmas.
In the following days, we were busy making preparations. Much to our delight, everything was ready just before the Christmas Eve. We waited eagerly for the daybreak.

【参考范文】
Paragraph 1:
On Christmas morning, we arrived at Mary’s home. It was a dimly lit home, small and shabby, with little furniture in it. “Merry Christmas!” we said in unison as we walked into the home. A young frail-looking mother came up, a look of confusion on her face. Immediately, we introduced ourselves. She held back her urge to cry and managed a smile. Her children, shy around strangers, just hid behind their mother and peeked from time to time. Having received presents from us, they eagerly unwrapped them, initial shyness giving way to utter delight. The whole family thanked us sincerely. Afterwards, we had fun together celebrating Christmas.
Paragraph 2:
The time went by quickly and it was time to say goodbye. The children were now so attached to us that they followed us out of the home. We crouched down, held their hands, and pulled them into our arms. Out of expectations, they planted affectionate kisses on our foreheads. Their mother stood at the door, waving, tears of happiness welling up in her eyes. On the way back home, I touched where the kiss lay and felt a sense of warmth surging through me. I was happy that I helped a mother fulfill her wishes and realized that being Santa for others is what Christmas is all about.
