A
The English language has a lt f wrds which can be used in many different ways and in many different expressins.
One such example is the wrd matter.In fact，matter can mean just abut anything.It culd be ne f the mst useful wrds in the English language.
Let’s get t the heart f the matter—a matter f principle(原则).
If smene says that yu we(欠) him $50，but yu dn’t，a friend might say，“Well，yu culd pay him the $50.It’s nt that much mney.Then yu wn’t have t hear him say it anymre.” But if yu d nt we him the mney，d nt pay him the mney.It’s a matter f principle.
There is anther way t use the wrd matter.But be careful with yur chice f wrds.
If yu ask smene，“What’s the matter？”，it shws yu are wrried abut the ther persn.But saying，“What’s the matter with yu？” has a cmpletely different meaning.And it usually sunds rude (粗鲁的).In fact，when yu say，“What’s the matter with yu？”，yu are suggesting that the persn did smething wrng r stupid.
Anther expressin that culd sund rude is t say，“It desn’t matter t me.” Here，it depends n the cntext，and hw yu say it.
Let’s say yu tell smene that a friend just gt a big raise at wrk.That persn answers with，“It desn’t matter t me.” Here，it means he r she des nt care.And it sunds rude.
But saying，“Oh，yu pick where we eat dinner.It desn’t matter t me.” des nt sund rude.In this situatin，“it desn’t matter” shws yu are easy-ging(随和的).
N matter hw yu lk at it and what yu say，matter is a very useful wrd.And it’s nly a matter f time befre yu will becme an expert n the use f matter.

The ther day a big, ugly, black bat fund its way t the bathrm f my huse and hung, upside dwn, ver the tilet bwl. As “the man f the huse”， I was asked t rid the huse f the awful creature. I grabbed a pillw and held the brm. I quickly pened the bathrm dr and threw the pillw at the bat. It didn't mve. Then that ld feeling started t cme ver me. It was the same feeling I experienced when I was sent dwn the stairs in the middle f the night t see what made a nise. The feeling can be summed up in ne wrd—trapped.
All men, I think, smetimes have had that feeling f being trapped in sme male rles. It may be smething as simple as having t carve the chicken befre it is served, r having t pretend that yu knw smething abut car engines when the car wn't start. Hwever, wmen nwadays seem t have the freedm t be themselves. They can repair cars r be firefighters. Yet men appear t be mre afraid t d smething different. It's as if being a man is nt what yu are, but what yu d and the way yu d it.
As I came twards the fierce and frightening bat, I wndered what wuld happen if I had simply tld my wife that I wuldn't d it—that she culd get it ut r else call smene in the mrning. But I culdn't d that! I am the man! I slwly pened the windw and clsed the tilet bwl cver. I then, carefully, lifted the brm ver my head and swept the bat ut the windw. Just like that, it was gne.
My wife was s pleased and in the mrning, my sn thught I was a her. They asked me hw I had gt rid f the bat. I started t tell them—but then stpped. A man desn't talk f such things.

T develp ne’s taste in English，the mst effective way is t read English bks extensively.Yet ne may be at a lss t chse the apprpriate bks，especially as a beginner.As a native Spanish，I wuld like t share sme f my experience.
My first English nvel was Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice，recmmended by many English teachers and prfessrs as an ideal bk fr English learners.But my experience was smewhat disastrus.I had great difficulty in understanding the nvel，let alne enjying it.It’s nt the vcabulary that trubled me，but rather the way Austen cnstructs sentences，and her way f thinking，which seemed t remte t me at that time.My fading enthusiasm was much recvered after reading Hemingway’s nvel A Farewell t Arms.N lng and cmplicated sentences.And I particularly liked his brief and straightfrward(简洁的) style.S my first suggestin is，as a beginner，yu’d better chse cntemprary nvels instead f classical nes.
Hwever，if yu restrict yurself t nvels yu will miss a lt f treasures.English essays can at nce infrm yu，entertain yu，and imprve yur taste in English.The best example is Bertrand Russell’s wrk.Its language is plain，yet yu cannt help feeling the elegance and the peculiar sense f humr.His simple language enables his philsphy within the reach f rdinary peple.Here cmes my secnd suggestin—essays are indispensable.
Never fllw thers’ recmmendatins and pinins blindly，hwever famus r influential(有很大影响的) the persn might be.We shuld be pen t varius ideas，but always think and determine fr urselves.As a saying ges，ne man’s meat is anther man’s pisn.With that in mind，we are bund t find ut ur favrite writers thrugh reading and develp ur fine taste in English.
28.What made the first English nvel that the authr read hard t understand?
A.Cmplicated cnversatins.
B.Sentences and Austen’s thinking pattern.
C.The ld-fashined vcabulary.
D.Nt knwing the scial backgrund.
29.Which can best replace the underlined wrd “indispensable”？
A.Necessary. B.Challenging.
C.Relevant. D.Inspiratinal.
30.What advice des the authr give in the last paragraph?
A.Chse bks that challenge us mst.
B.Read bks that are instructive.
C.Dn’t be affected by thers’ chices.
D.Cmpare bks befre buying.
31.What is the authr’s purpse f writing the passage?
A.Give cmments n literature wrks.
B.Tell beginners hw t chse English bks.

Mre than a billin peple arund the wrld have smartphnes, almst all f which cme with sme kind f navigatin (导航) app such as Apple Maps r Amap. This raises the age­ld questin we meet with any technlgy: What abilities is ur brain lsing t these apps? But als, imprtantly: What abilities are we gaining?
Talking with peple wh are gd at finding their way arund r gd at using paper maps, I ften hear a lt f annyance with digital maps. Nrth/suth directin gets messed up, and yu can see nly a small sectin at a time. I can really understand that it may be quite disturbing fr the already skilled t be limited t a small phne screen.
But cnsider what digital navigatin aids have meant fr smene like me. Althugh being a frequent traveler, I'm s terrible at finding my way that I still use Apple Maps almst every day in the small twn where I have lived fr many years.
In many develped natins, street names and huse numbers can be meaningful, and instructins such as “g nrth fr three blcks and—then west” make sense t thse familiar with these rules. In Istanbul, hwever, where I grew up, nne f thse hld true. Fr ne thing, the lcals seldm use street names. Besides, the city is full f winding and ancient alleys that crss with newer avenues at many angles. In such places, yu'd better turn t the lcals. In the American cuntryside, hwever, there is ften nbdy utside t ask. In fact, alng came Apple Maps, like a fairy grandmther whispering directins in my ear. Since then, I travel with a lt mre cnfidence, and my wrld has pened up.
Which brings me back t my riginal questin: While we ften lse sme skills after depending n new technlgy, this new equipment may als allw us t gain new abilities. Maybe when technlgy clses a dr, we shuld als lk fr the drs it pens.
32．Why d peple skilled at reading paper maps feel upset?

【参考答案】

21.答案 B 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“But if yu d nt we him the mney，d nt pay him the mney.It’s a matter f principle.”可推测，作者认为钱的数目不重要，重要的是原则问题。因此他觉得在对的事情上要坚持自己的立场，不要轻易做出让步或改变。
22.答案 C 词义猜测题。根据倒数第二、三段举例说明，It desn’t matter t me在不同的语境意思不同，该表达取决于上下文语境，故选situatin。
23.答案 A 写作手法题。根据文中用不同的例子来讲解matter的用法可知，作者主要是通过举例来展开全文的。
B

语篇解读：本文主要讲的是因为家里进了一只蝙蝠，身为男人的作者被要求站出来解决这个问题，在这个过程中，作者开始思考男性的角色和身为男人的无奈。
24．答案与解析：D 考查理解目的的能力。文章第一段主要讲的是因为家里进了一只蝙蝠，身为男人的作者被要求站出来解决这个问题，就像是半夜里被派去下楼查看是什么发出声音，这些事情让作者觉得他是被困在“男人”这个角色中了。由此可推知，作者提到“the ld feeling”是为了强调被困住的情况，故D项正确。
25．答案与解析：B 考查推断的能力。根据第二段中的“Hwever, wmen nwadays seem t have the freedm t be themselves”以及“Yet men appear t be... the way yu d it”可知，现在女性似乎有做自己的自由，但是男性似乎更害怕做一些不同的事，就好像做男人不是做你自己，而是你所做的事情和你做事的方式。由此可推知，作者提到“wmen's freedm”，是为了与男性的境况形成对比，即男人不得不达到社会对他们的期待，故B项正确。
26．答案与解析：C 考查推断的能力。根据最后一句“一个男人是不会说这样的事情的”并结合上文作者对男性角色和社会对男性的期待的思考可推知，此处暗示了作者会按照社会对男性的期待去做事情，故C项正确。
27．答案与解析：B 考查推断的能力。本文主要讲的是因为家里进了一只蝙蝠，身为男人的作者被要求站出来解决这个问题，在这个过程中，作者开始思考男性的角色和受困于男性角色的不得已之处。在本篇文章中作者始终以轻松、幽默的语气来描述他的心理活动，故B项正确。
C
语篇解读：培养英语兴趣最有效的方法是广泛阅读英文读物，但是在选择合适的读物上，人们尤其是初学者，可能会不知所措。本文作者主要就如何选择适合自己的英文读物来读给出了自己的建议。
28.答案 B 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It’s nt the vcabulary that trubled me， seemed t remte t me at that time.”可知，作者的第一本英文读物《傲慢与偏见》的句子结构和作者简·奥斯汀的思维方式使作者很难读懂这本书。故选B。
29.答案 A 词义猜测题。根据第三段可知，画线词前面的部分主要讲的是阅读英语文章的好处，由此可知此处指的应是文章也是必不可少的。故画线词的意思应是“必不可少的，必需的”，与A项necessary的意思相近。
30.答案 C 细节理解题。根据最后一段可知，作者在最后一段建议我们要自己做决定，不要盲目听从别人的建议，因为萝卜青菜各有所爱，即不要受别人选择的影响。故选C。
31.答案 B 写作意图题。本文作者主要就如何选择适合自己的英文读物来读，给出了自己的建议。故B项最能表明作者写作本文的目的。
D
语篇类型：议论文 主题语境：人与社会——导航——导航应用
语篇解读：随着智能手机的发展，导航应用发展迅速，那么导航应用到底是让我们变得更好还是更糟糕呢？作者提出了自己的观点。
32．答案与解析：B 考查细节理解。根据文章第二段的“Nrth/suth directin gets messed up, and yu can see nly a small sectin at a time”可以得出，由于电子地图中的南北方向让人觉得混乱，而且一次只能看一小块，这让擅长使用纸质地图的人很烦恼，故选B。
33．答案与解析：A 考查细节理解。根据文章第四段可知，作者从小生活在伊斯坦布尔。街道很少有名字，蜿蜒曲折且古老的巷子与新建的大道纵横交叉，形成各种角度。在这样的地方，最好向当地人求助。故选A。
34．答案与解析：C 考查观点态度。第三段中的“But cnsider what digital navigatin aids have meant fr smene like me”以及倒数第二段中的“In fact, alng came Apple Maps, like a fairy grandmther whispering directins in my ear. Since then, I travel with a lt mre cnfidence, and my wrld has pened up”等信息都表明作者对导航应用持支持的态度。
35．答案与解析：D 考查标题判断。第一段作者提到“This raises the age­ld questin we meet with any technlgy: What abilities is ur brain lsing t these apps? But als, imprtantly: What abilities are we gaining”，第二段作者简单介绍导航应用给一些人带来的烦恼。接下来作者笔锋一转，重点着重于导航应用的积极一面，并在最后一段得出结论“While we ften lse sme skills after depending n new technlgy, this new equipment may als allw us t gain new abilities. Maybe when technlgy clses a dr, we shuld als lk fr the drs it pens”，即本文主要是对导航应用是否会让我们的大脑丧失某些能力的探讨。故答案选D。

语篇解读：本文主要介绍了锻炼的步骤和方法，包括锻炼前热身、加入力量训练等。

58．答案与解析：D 结合语境可知，学习唱歌就像是学习走路一样。学习唱歌就像是发现了一些之前存在，但是我们没有意识到的超能力一样。give ut“分发，用完”；admit t“承认，许可进入”。

60．答案与解析：B 结合语境可知，唱歌不仅仅教会了我唱一些高音和低音。
语法填空：
语篇解读：我们每个人都有各种各样的梦想，但与此同时，也会有各种各样的借口和“我不能”。正是这些借口和“我不能”慢慢摧毁了我们的梦想。要相信梦想，要为之付出行动。
61.why考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，从句“ the dream is unachievable”中不缺少任何成分，且空前的词为名词reasns，可断定从句为定语从句。此处关系副词why引导定语从句，在从句中作原因状语。
62.excuses考查名词单复数。根据空格前的different，可知此处应用excuse的复数形式。
63.brken考查非谓语动词。根据句子结构可知，dreams与break之间存在逻辑上的被动关系，故用break的过去分词形式brken。
64.grew考查时态。根据and前的谓语动词were nurtured，可知此处为grw的过去式形式，即grew。
65.t put考查非谓语动词。根据搭配allw sb t d sth，可知此处应用不定式。
66.acting考查非谓语动词。因为while引导的从句中缺少主语，且根据前面dreaming可知，此处应用v.-ing的形式。
67.a考查冠词。jurney在文中首次出现，表示泛指，故用不定冠词a修饰。
68.easily考查词形变化。此处需要副词修饰realized。
69.them考查代词。根据空格前的realize可知，此处应用they的宾格形式them。
70.in 考查介词。in frnt f意为“在……前面；当着……的面”
