I am not good at fine dining. Even after a couple of formal meals in college, I still didn’t know how to balance a pile of peas on the back of my fork, which is obviously the European style.
Honestly, I think I am much more used to the simple language of chopsticks. Simple, however, by no means straightforward. To me, the humble (微不足道的) art of chopsticks carries more than any silver knives or forks ever could.
My grandfather’s language of love is teaching. I still remember how my grandfather teaches me to use chopsticks the proper way.”Only your first two fingers should be moving,” he tells me, “and your two chopsticks must never cross.” He can use chopsticks skillfully. He shows me chopstick tricks and we play games with chopsticks, like trying to take a pea from the other’s chopsticks grip. With a pair of chopsticks and his powerful hand, there is no need for any other cutlery when even noodles can be cut clean with a pair of chopsticks.
My grandmother’s language of love is food. In her hand, wooden chopsticks are no longer just cutlery, but a tool to show her concern.“Come, eat more,” she always says while using chopsticks to pick up food for me. When my grandfather comes home from a long day’s work, despite all the nagging that she gives to him, my grandmother always happily places the best part of their food onto his plate with chopsticks, and takes the rest for herself. There is no need for any words, when the love can be expressed with a pair of chopsticks.
Using chopsticks takes practice, patience and tenacity. After more than fifty years of marriage, my grandparents are still studying it and practicing it, with every meal and every mouthful. Mastering the loving language of chopsticks takes even more work, perhaps nobody can ever really be an expert-but isn’t that the beauty of it? Though our chopsticks may cross from time and we might drop the food on the table, we can always pick it up and try again.
4. What does the author think of chopsticks according to the first two paragraphs?
A. They are no different from forks.
B. They cannot be used for fine dining.
C. They are straightforward.
D. They are easier to use than knives and forks.
5. The underlined word “tenacity” in paragraph 5 probably means“_______”.
A. Courage B. faith C. perseverance D. optimism
6. What could be the best structure of the passage?
A. B.
C. D.
7. What does the author mainly want to tell us?
A. The usage of chopsticks. B. The development of chopsticks.
C. The meaning carried by chopsticks. D. The art of chopsticks.
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章通过作者祖父和祖母的故事来讲述筷子的含义。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Even after a couple of formal meals in college, I still didn’t know how to balance a pile of peas on the back of my fork, which is obviously the European style.(即使在大学里正式吃过几顿饭，我仍然不知道如何平衡叉子后面的一堆豌豆，这显然是欧洲人的风格)”和第二段的“Honestly, I think I am much more used to the simple language of chopsticks.(老实说，我觉得我更习惯简单的筷子语言)”推知，作者认为比起刀叉来，筷子更容易使用。故选D。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段的“Using chopsticks takes practice, patience (使用筷子需要练习、耐心)”和下文“After more than fifty years of marriage, my grandparents are still studying it and practicing it, with every meal and every mouthful.(结婚五十多年了，爷爷奶奶还在研究、练习，每一顿饭，每一口饭)”可知，作者的爷爷奶奶研究、练习使用筷子50多年了。由此可知，使用筷子需要练习、耐心和毅力。因此划线词tenacity意为“毅力”，与perseverance同义。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知，第一二段引出话题——筷子承载着很多，第三段讲述祖父教作者使用筷子，第四段讲述祖母用筷子表达对家人关心，最后一段对全文进行总结。因此文章的结构是：一二段引出话题——三段分述——四段分述——五段总结。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段的“To me, the humble (微不足道的) art of chopsticks carries more than any silver knives or forks ever could.(对我来说，筷子这一朴素的艺术比任何银刀叉都能承载更多的东西)”并结合第三段讲述祖父教作者使用筷子，第四段讲述祖母用筷子表达对家人关心可知，作者通过这篇文章告诉我们筷子的含义。故选C。
C
Engineers have launched a huge garbage collection device to gather plastic material floating in the Pacific Ocean between California and Hawaii.
The plastic makes up what is called the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. It is the world’s largest spread of garbage, at twice the size of the state of Texas.
The organization Ocean Cleanup created the collection device, whose founder is Boyan Slat, a 24-year-old inventor from the Netherlands.
Slat was just 16 years old when he was moved to clean up the oceans. Last Saturday, a ship pulling the pipe-shaped floating barrier left San Francisco for the Garbage Patch. The barrier, called the floater, is 600 meters across. Attached to it is a screening skirt that hangs three meters down in the water.
The screen is designed to collect the plastic as it moves through the water. Sea animals can safely swim under the barrier.
The cleanup system also comes with lights powered by the sun, cameras, and other special devices. So the system can communicate its position at all times. That way a support ship can find it every few months to remove the plastic it has collected.
“The free-floating barriers are made to survive extreme weather conditions and damage from continue use. They will stay in the water for twenty years and in that time collect 90 percent of the garbage in the patch,” Slat added.
George Leonard is the chief scientist. He expressed concern about the cleaning project. He said even if plastic garbage can be taken out of the oceans more continues to enter the water each year. He also raised concern that animals might be captured by the net hung below the surface.
But, Boyan Slat said he did not think that would happen. The system will act as a “big boat that stands still in the water”, with nothing for sea creatures to get caught in.
8. Why was a screen attached to the ship?
A. To gather plastic. B. To catch see animals.
C. To protect the floater. D. To give the floater power.
9. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The support ship. B. The floating barrier.
C. The plastic to be recycled. D. The position of special devices.
10. What is not the advantage of the cleanup system?
A. It’s easy to locate. B. It is not affected by bad weather.
C. It can last and work for a long time. D. It’s popular with people.
11. What is the best title for the passage?
A. A young inventor from Netherlands. B. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
C. Approaches to removing garbage in oceans. D. A huge garbage collection device.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。讲述的是工程师们推出了一个巨大的垃圾收集装置，以收集漂浮在加利福尼亚和夏威夷之间的太平洋上的塑料材料，但是也有人提出这一装置仍然存在着一定的问题。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The screen is designed to collect the plastic as it moves through the water.(屏幕设计用于在塑料在水中移动时收集塑料)”可知，在船上配置屏幕是为了收集垃圾。故选A项。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。代词“it”一般指代说的是上文中的内容，根据第四段中的“The barrier, called the floater, is 600 meters across.(屏障被称为漂浮物，宽600米)”可知，此处代词指代的是“the barrier”。故选B项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段中的“So the system can communicate its position at all times.(因此，系统可以随时传达其位置)”可知，A项是这套清洁系统的优点；根据第七段中的“The free-floating barriers are made to survive extreme weather conditions and damage from continue use. They will stay in the water for twenty years and in that time collect 90 percent of the garbage in the patch.(自由漂浮的护栏是为了在极端天气条件下生存，并避免继续使用造成的损坏。它们将在水中停留二十年，并在这段时间内收集这片区域90% 的垃圾)”可知，B项和C项也是这套系统的优点。根据倒数第二段中的“He expressed concern about the cleaning project.(他对清洁项目表示担忧)”以及“He also raised concern that animals might be captured by the net hung below the surface.(他还担心动物可能会被挂在水面下的网捕获) ”可知，D项不是这套系统的优势。故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据首段中的“Engineers have launched a huge garbage collection device to gather plastic material floating in the Pacific Ocean between California and Hawaii.(工程师们推出了一个巨大的垃圾收集装置，以收集漂浮在加利福尼亚和夏威夷之间的太平洋上的塑料)”可知，本文介绍的是一套垃圾收集装置。D项“一个巨大的垃圾收集装置”可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选D项。
D
Imagine this: You’re at a movie theater food stand loading up on snacks. You have a choice of a small, medium or large soda. The small is $3.50 and the large is $5.50. It’s a tough decision: The small size may not last you through the whole movie, but $5.50 for some sugary drink seems ridiculous. But there’s a third option, a medium soda for $5.25. The medium might be just right for you, but the large only cost a quarter more. If you’re like the majority of people, you end up buying the large.
If you’re wondering who would purchase the medium soda, the answer is almost no one. Actually, there’s a good chance that the marketing department purposely priced the medium soda as a decoy(诱饵), making you more likely to buy the soda rather than the small.
I have written about this unique human nature previously with my friend Dan Ariely, who, after noticing pricing for subscription(订阅) to The Economist, studied this phenomenon extensively. The digital subscription was $59, the print subscription was $125, and the print plus digital subscription was also $125. No one in their right mind would buy the print subscription when you could get digital as well for the same price, so why was it even an option? Ariely ran an experiment and found that when only the two“real”choices were offered, more people chose the less-expensive digital subscription. However, the bad option increased people’s likelihood of selecting the expensive print plus digital option.
Brain scientists call this effect“asymmetric dominance” and it means that people are attracted to the option that is closest to an obviously inferior(较差的) option. Marketing professors call it the decoy effect, which is certainly easier to remember. It works because of the way our brain assign value when making choices. Value is rarely absolute; rather, we decide an object’s value relative to other choices. If more options are introduced, the value equation(方程) changes.
12. What’s the function of the example in paragraph 1?
A. To offer background information. B. To explain an economical phenomenon.
C. To arouse the readers’ interest in the topic. D. To illustrate a rule when buying drinks.
13. What do we learn from Dan Ariely’s experiment?
A. The Economist’s print edition turns out to sell the best.
B. More readers choose the digital over the print edition.
C. Lower-priced goods attract more customers.
D. The Economist’s promotional strategy works.
14. From which website would you most probably find this text?
A. https://www.lifestyle.com/health B. https://www. science.com/local
C. https://www.consumers.com/money D. https://www.education.com/science
15. How do we assess the value of a product according to the passage?
A. by considering its usefulness. B. Comparing it with other choices.
C. By examining its value equation. D. By taking its low quality into account.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文阐述的是一种诱饵效应：当我们在做出选择时，受大脑分配价值方式的影响，在有更多选择的时候，我们会被最接近劣势的选项所吸引。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章首段中的“Picture this: You’re at a movie theater food stand loading up on snacks. You have a choice of a small, medium or large soda. The small is $3.50 and the large is $5.50.(想象一下：你在电影院的食品摊上装满零食。你可以选择小杯，中杯或大杯苏打水。小的是 3.50 美元，大是 5.50 美元。)”；最后一句“If you’re like most people, you end up buying the large.(如果你像大部分人的话，你最终会买大杯。)”以及下文对诱饵效应的介绍可知，通过具体的事例，将读者引入文章讲述的话题，所以首段的作用就是引起读者的兴趣。故选C项。
13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“Ariely ran an experiment and found that when only the two “real” choices were offered, more people chose the less-expensive digital subscription. However, the bad option increased people’s likelihood of selecting the expensive print plus digital option.(Ariely进行了一项实验，发现当只提供两种“真实”选择时，更多的人选择更便宜的数字订阅。然而，糟糕的选择增加了人们选择昂贵的印刷加数字选项的可能性。)”可知，实验结果表明，这种促销的方式应该是见效的。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章首段的具体实例讲述的是消费者在面对消费选择时的最终选择结果，以及Dan Ariely所做的实验内容和最后一段中的“Marketing professors call it the decoy effect, which is certainly easier to remember.(营销学教授称之为诱饵效应，这当然更容易记住。)”可知，文章所涉及的信息都与消费者的消费选择和市场营销策略有关系，由此可推断，文章很有可能出现在与消费者相关的网站。故选C项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“However, the bad option increased people’s likelihood of selecting the expensive print plus digital option.(然而，糟糕的选择增加了人们选择昂贵的印刷加数字选项的可能性。)”和最后一段中的“Value is rarely absolute; rather, we decide an object’s value relative to other choices. If more options are introduced, the value equation(方程) changes.(价值很少是绝对的；相反，我们决定一个对象相对于其他选择的值。如果引入更多选项，则值方程会发生变化。)”可知，我们在购买一件商品时，总会经过对比，选择自己认为最好的选项。故选B项。
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。
You realize your typically noisy and energetic kid has stopped bouncing around, hasn’t moved from the couch for more than an hour and isn’t hungry. When you go check on them, you discover they’re burning up. Uh-oh, a fever. ___16___ But as Dr. Natasha Collia reminds us, “fever is not necessarily a bad thing. Fever is simply your body’s way of alerting you it’s fighting an infection.” Here is Collia’s advice on how to manage rising temperatures in your household.
___17___?
Touching your child’s skin is not a reliable way to check for fever. To confirm a fever, you’ll need to take your child’s temperature. Any temperature of 38℃(100.4°F) or higher is a fever.
How can I keep my child comfortable when they’re running a fever?
You can help keep your child cool by removing thick clothes, applying a lukewarm cloth, or giving them lukewarm baths. Place a fan in where they are sleeping or resting. ___18___
You can also manage your child’s fever with an over-the -counter(OTC) medicine, like acetaminophen or ibuprofen medication(退热药). The key thing to understand about acetaminophen or ibuprofen is that while they can make your child more comfortable, they don’t treat the underlying cause of the fever.
How long should I keep my child on OTC fever meds?
Something for parents to keep in mind is that a fever actually helps with the progress of the illness. The fever helps the body fight an infectious process by lowering the amount of virus. ___19___, you shouldn’t keep the fever from rising.
___20___ When a child is on a fever-reducing medication24/7, it’s hard for us to understand the fever curve. As a physician, I won’t know if going down or if the medicine is making it go down.
A. How do I take my child’s temperature
B. Additionally, ensure that your child drink enough water
C. How do I know if my child has a fever
D. Although your child may be uncomfortable
E. When your child’s temperature reaches 38.6℃
F. Fever-reducing medicine should not be given to your child continuously for long periods of time
G. This is more likely to occur as the cold and flu season approaches
【答案】16. G 17. C 18. B 19. D 20. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了在家中如何应对孩子发烧的情况。
【16题详解】
上文“When you go check on them, you discover they’re burning up. Uh-oh, a fever. (当你去检查他们时，你发现他们正在发热。啊哦，发烧了)”说明检查后发现孩子们发烧了，G项中This指代“发烧”这种情况，G项“随着寒冷和流感季节的临近，这种情况更有可能发生”承接上文，符合题意。故选G。
【17题详解】
下文“To confirm a fever, you’ll need to take your child’s temperature. Any temperature of 38℃(100.4°F) or higher is a fever.(要确认发烧，您需要测量孩子的体温。任何38℃（100.4°F）或更高的温度都是发烧)”说明需要用测量孩子体温的这种方式来确认发烧，C项“我怎么知道我的孩子是否发烧”提出问题，引出下文，符合题意。故选C。
【18题详解】
上文“You can help keep your child cool by removing thick clothes, applying a lukewarm cloth, or giving them lukewarm baths. (你可以通过脱掉厚衣服，敷上温热的布，或给孩子洗温水澡来帮助孩子保持凉爽)”说明了让孩子感觉舒服的方式，B项“此外，确保您的孩子喝足够的水”承接上文，继续介绍让孩子感觉舒服的方式，符合题意。故选B。
【19题详解】
上文“The fever helps the body fight an infectious process by lowering the amount of virus.(发烧通过降低病毒的数量帮助身体对抗传染过程)”说明发烧对人的身体是有益处的，以及下文“you shouldn’t keep the fever from rising.(你不应该阻止温度上升)”说明你不应该阻止体温上升，D项“尽管你的孩子可能不舒服”与下文构成转折关系，符合题意。故选D。
【20题详解】
下文“When a child is on a fever-reducing medication 24/7, it’s hard for us to understand the fever curve.(当孩子全天候服用退烧药物时，我们很难理解体温变化曲线)”说明全天候服用退烧药不利于我们掌握孩子的体温变化，F项“不要长时间连续给孩子服用退烧药”引出下文，符合题意。故选F。

【36题详解】
考查不定冠词。句意：在发展不同兴趣的同时，杨在练习“独竹漂”（duzhupiao）的过程中长大，这是一项很久以前起源于贵州赤水河地区的技能。分析可知，“___1___skill”为之前名词“duzhupiao, or ‘bamboo-drifting’”的同位语，独竹漂是一种技艺，“skill”为可数名词，此处填不定冠词作为限定词。故填a。
【37题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：然而，她没想到这会成为她毕生追求的梦想。分析可知，“__2__ (pursue)”为之前“a lifelong dream”的后置定语，用动词不定式表达。故填to pursue。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语。句意：杨大约4岁的时候，她的奶奶先帮她学游泳，希望杨能通过体育运动保持健康。分析可知，“__3__ (hope) Yang would stay healthy through the physical activity”为目的状语，动词“hope”与主语“her grandmother”之间为主动关系，用现在分词形式。故填hoping。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意：10岁时，她多次在竹筏上失去平衡，掉进河里。分析可知，副词作状语修饰动作“lost her balance”。“repeat”，动词，意为“重复”，其副词形式为“repeatedly(反复地，再三地)”。故填repeatedly。
【40题详解】
考查名词。句意：作为一个游泳好手，她并不害怕，反而觉得很有趣。分析可知，“a”为不定冠词，“good”为形容词作定语，所填应是名词。“swim”，动词，意为“游泳”，其名词形式为“swimmer(游泳者)”。故填swimmer。
【41题详解】
考查不定代词。句意：作为一个游泳好手，她并不害怕，反而觉得很有趣。分析可知，“find”后缺少宾语，结合语境可知，宾语应是指前文“When Yang turned 10, ____4____ (repeat) lost her balance on the bamboo rafts and fell in the river.(10岁时，她多次在竹筏上失去平衡，掉进河里。)”这件事，“it”作不定代词时，可指代前文提及的某事，符合语境。故填it。
【42题详解】
考查结果状语从句。句意：“……我太兴奋了，以至于我不想停下来，”杨回忆道。分析可知，“so…that…”，“如此……以至于……”。故填that。
【43题详解】
考查非限制性定语从句引导词。句意：这段视频显示了年轻女子的控制能力和平衡能力，令观众大为惊讶。分析可知，“___8___ showed the young woman’s control and balance”为之前名词“The video”的非限制性定语从句，先行词在从句中作主语，用关系代词which。故填which。
【44题详解】
考查时态。句意：这段视频显示了年轻女子的控制能力和平衡能力，令观众大为惊讶。分析可知，所填动词为谓语动词，结合前文“One day, she posted her first short video on social media.(有一天，她在社交媒体上发布了自己的第一个短视频。)”语境可知，应是一般过去时，动词用过去式。故填amazed。

47. 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。
That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theater. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.
As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away any possible robbers (抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.
About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.
Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.
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。
Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the sidewalk next to me.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got to bed.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the sidewalk next to me. I heard a man call my name from the truck. It was surprising! When the voice called me from the inside of the truck, I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and a small red-haired man jumped out. He had an amused look in his eyes, “Is this what you are looking for?” he asked, holding up my wallet. I really couldn’t believe my eyes at the moment. Yes, sir! It was my wallet. Joy welled up inside me when the man handed my wallet to me.
It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got to bed. But I couldn’t fall asleep right away. While I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, I had got my wallet back. I also got something valuable—I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述的是作者在一天的工作之后，感到对这个城市，对生活的对工作都失去了兴趣的时候，因为得到了别人的帮助，又重新燃起了对这个城市生活的喜爱之情。

B
I am not good at fine dining. Even after a couple of formal meals in college, I still didn’t know how to balance a pile of peas on the back of my fork, which is obviously the European style.
Honestly, I think I am much more used to the simple language of chopsticks. Simple, however, by no means straightforward. To me, the humble (微不足道的) art of chopsticks carries more than any silver knives or forks ever could.
My grandfather’s language of love is teaching. I still remember how my grandfather teaches me to use chopsticks the proper way.”Only your first two fingers should be moving,” he tells me, “and your two chopsticks must never cross.” He can use chopsticks skillfully. He shows me chopstick tricks and we play games with chopsticks, like trying to take a pea from the other’s chopsticks grip. With a pair of chopsticks and his powerful hand, there is no need for any other cutlery when even noodles can be cut clean with a pair of chopsticks.
My grandmother’s language of love is food. In her hand, wooden chopsticks are no longer just cutlery, but a tool to show her concern.“Come, eat more,” she always says while using chopsticks to pick up food for me. When my grandfather comes home from a long day’s work, despite all the nagging that she gives to him, my grandmother always happily places the best part of their food onto his plate with chopsticks, and takes the rest for herself. There is no need for any words, when the love can be expressed with a pair of chopsticks.
Using chopsticks takes practice, patience and tenacity. After more than fifty years of marriage, my grandparents are still studying it and practicing it, with every meal and every mouthful. Mastering the loving language of chopsticks takes even more work, perhaps nobody can ever really be an expert-but isn’t that the beauty of it? Though our chopsticks may cross from time and we might drop the food on the table, we can always pick it up and try again.
4. What does the author think of chopsticks according to the first two paragraphs?
A. They are no different from forks.
B. They cannot be used for fine dining.
C. They are straightforward.
D. They are easier to use than knives and forks.
5. The underlined word “tenacity” in paragraph 5 probably means“_______”.
A. Courage B. faith C. perseverance D. optimism
6. What could be the best structure of the passage?
A. B.
C. D.
7. What does the author mainly want to tell us?
A. The usage of chopsticks. B. The development of chopsticks.
C. The meaning carried by chopsticks. D. The art of chopsticks.
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章通过作者祖父和祖母的故事来讲述筷子的含义。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Even after a couple of formal meals in college, I still didn’t know how to balance a pile of peas on the back of my fork, which is obviously the European style.(即使在大学里正式吃过几顿饭，我仍然不知道如何平衡叉子后面的一堆豌豆，这显然是欧洲人的风格)”和第二段的“Honestly, I think I am much more used to the simple language of chopsticks.(老实说，我觉得我更习惯简单的筷子语言)”推知，作者认为比起刀叉来，筷子更容易使用。故选D。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段的“Using chopsticks takes practice, patience (使用筷子需要练习、耐心)”和下文“After more than fifty years of marriage, my grandparents are still studying it and practicing it, with every meal and every mouthful.(结婚五十多年了，爷爷奶奶还在研究、练习，每一顿饭，每一口饭)”可知，作者的爷爷奶奶研究、练习使用筷子50多年了。由此可知，使用筷子需要练习、耐心和毅力。因此划线词tenacity意为“毅力”，与perseverance同义。故选C。

Engineers have launched a huge garbage collection device to gather plastic material floating in the Pacific Ocean between California and Hawaii.
The plastic makes up what is called the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. It is the world’s largest spread of garbage, at twice the size of the state of Texas.
The organization Ocean Cleanup created the collection device, whose founder is Boyan Slat, a 24-year-old inventor from the Netherlands.
Slat was just 16 years old when he was moved to clean up the oceans. Last Saturday, a ship pulling the pipe-shaped floating barrier left San Francisco for the Garbage Patch. The barrier, called the floater, is 600 meters across. Attached to it is a screening skirt that hangs three meters down in the water.
The screen is designed to collect the plastic as it moves through the water. Sea animals can safely swim under the barrier.
The cleanup system also comes with lights powered by the sun, cameras, and other special devices. So the system can communicate its position at all times. That way a support ship can find it every few months to remove the plastic it has collected.
“The free-floating barriers are made to survive extreme weather conditions and damage from continue use. They will stay in the water for twenty years and in that time collect 90 percent of the garbage in the patch,” Slat added.
George Leonard is the chief scientist. He expressed concern about the cleaning project. He said even if plastic garbage can be taken out of the oceans more continues to enter the water each year. He also raised concern that animals might be captured by the net hung below the surface.
But, Boyan Slat said he did not think that would happen. The system will act as a “big boat that stands still in the water”, with nothing for sea creatures to get caught in.
8. Why was a screen attached to the ship?
A. To gather plastic. B. To catch see animals.
C. To protect the floater. D. To give the floater power.
9. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The support ship. B. The floating barrier.
C. The plastic to be recycled. D. The position of special devices.
10. What is not the advantage of the cleanup system?
A. It’s easy to locate. B. It is not affected by bad weather.
C. It can last and work for a long time. D. It’s popular with people.
11. What is the best title for the passage?
A. A young inventor from Netherlands. B. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
C. Approaches to removing garbage in oceans. D. A huge garbage collection device.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. D

【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段中的“So the system can communicate its position at all times.(因此，系统可以随时传达其位置)”可知，A项是这套清洁系统的优点；根据第七段中的“The free-floating barriers are made to survive extreme weather conditions and damage from continue use. They will stay in the water for twenty years and in that time collect 90 percent of the garbage in the patch.(自由漂浮的护栏是为了在极端天气条件下生存，并避免继续使用造成的损坏。它们将在水中停留二十年，并在这段时间内收集这片区域90% 的垃圾)”可知，B项和C项也是这套系统的优点。根据倒数第二段中的“He expressed concern about the cleaning project.(他对清洁项目表示担忧)”以及“He also raised concern that animals might be captured by the net hung below the surface.(他还担心动物可能会被挂在水面下的网捕获) ”可知，D项不是这套系统的优势。故选D项。

Imagine this: You’re at a movie theater food stand loading up on snacks. You have a choice of a small, medium or large soda. The small is $3.50 and the large is $5.50. It’s a tough decision: The small size may not last you through the whole movie, but $5.50 for some sugary drink seems ridiculous. But there’s a third option, a medium soda for $5.25. The medium might be just right for you, but the large only cost a quarter more. If you’re like the majority of people, you end up buying the large.
If you’re wondering who would purchase the medium soda, the answer is almost no one. Actually, there’s a good chance that the marketing department purposely priced the medium soda as a decoy(诱饵), making you more likely to buy the soda rather than the small.
I have written about this unique human nature previously with my friend Dan Ariely, who, after noticing pricing for subscription(订阅) to The Economist, studied this phenomenon extensively. The digital subscription was $59, the print subscription was $125, and the print plus digital subscription was also $125. No one in their right mind would buy the print subscription when you could get digital as well for the same price, so why was it even an option? Ariely ran an experiment and found that when only the two“real”choices were offered, more people chose the less-expensive digital subscription. However, the bad option increased people’s likelihood of selecting the expensive print plus digital option.
Brain scientists call this effect“asymmetric dominance” and it means that people are attracted to the option that is closest to an obviously inferior(较差的) option. Marketing professors call it the decoy effect, which is certainly easier to remember. It works because of the way our brain assign value when making choices. Value is rarely absolute; rather, we decide an object’s value relative to other choices. If more options are introduced, the value equation(方程) changes.
12. What’s the function of the example in paragraph 1?
A. To offer background information. B. To explain an economical phenomenon.
C. To arouse the readers’ interest in the topic. D. To illustrate a rule when buying drinks.
13. What do we learn from Dan Ariely’s experiment?
A. The Economist’s print edition turns out to sell the best.
B. More readers choose the digital over the print edition.
C. Lower-priced goods attract more customers.
D. The Economist’s promotional strategy works.
14. From which website would you most probably find this text?
A. https://www.lifestyle.com/health B. https://www. science.com/local
C. https://www.consumers.com/money D. https://www.education.com/science
15. How do we assess the value of a product according to the passage?
A. by considering its usefulness. B. Comparing it with other choices.
C. By examining its value equation. D. By taking its low quality into account.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文阐述的是一种诱饵效应：当我们在做出选择时，受大脑分配价值方式的影响，在有更多选择的时候，我们会被最接近劣势的选项所吸引。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章首段中的“Picture this: You’re at a movie theater food stand loading up on snacks. You have a choice of a small, medium or large soda. The small is $3.50 and the large is $5.50.(想象一下：你在电影院的食品摊上装满零食。你可以选择小杯，中杯或大杯苏打水。小的是 3.50 美元，大是 5.50 美元。)”；最后一句“If you’re like most people, you end up buying the large.(如果你像大部分人的话，你最终会买大杯。)”以及下文对诱饵效应的介绍可知，通过具体的事例，将读者引入文章讲述的话题，所以首段的作用就是引起读者的兴趣。故选C项。
13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“Ariely ran an experiment and found that when only the two “real” choices were offered, more people chose the less-expensive digital subscription. However, the bad option increased people’s likelihood of selecting the expensive print plus digital option.(Ariely进行了一项实验，发现当只提供两种“真实”选择时，更多的人选择更便宜的数字订阅。然而，糟糕的选择增加了人们选择昂贵的印刷加数字选项的可能性。)”可知，实验结果表明，这种促销的方式应该是见效的。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章首段的具体实例讲述的是消费者在面对消费选择时的最终选择结果，以及Dan Ariely所做的实验内容和最后一段中的“Marketing professors call it the decoy effect, which is certainly easier to remember.(营销学教授称之为诱饵效应，这当然更容易记住。)”可知，文章所涉及的信息都与消费者的消费选择和市场营销策略有关系，由此可推断，文章很有可能出现在与消费者相关的网站。故选C项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“However, the bad option increased people’s likelihood of selecting the expensive print plus digital option.(然而，糟糕的选择增加了人们选择昂贵的印刷加数字选项的可能性。)”和最后一段中的“Value is rarely absolute; rather, we decide an object’s value relative to other choices. If more options are introduced, the value equation(方程) changes.(价值很少是绝对的；相反，我们决定一个对象相对于其他选择的值。如果引入更多选项，则值方程会发生变化。)”可知，我们在购买一件商品时，总会经过对比，选择自己认为最好的选项。故选B项。

You realize your typically noisy and energetic kid has stopped bouncing around, hasn’t moved from the couch for more than an hour and isn’t hungry. When you go check on them, you discover they’re burning up. Uh-oh, a fever. ___16___ But as Dr. Natasha Collia reminds us, “fever is not necessarily a bad thing. Fever is simply your body’s way of alerting you it’s fighting an infection.” Here is Collia’s advice on how to manage rising temperatures in your household.
___17___?
Touching your child’s skin is not a reliable way to check for fever. To confirm a fever, you’ll need to take your child’s temperature. Any temperature of 38℃(100.4°F) or higher is a fever.
How can I keep my child comfortable when they’re running a fever?
You can help keep your child cool by removing thick clothes, applying a lukewarm cloth, or giving them lukewarm baths. Place a fan in where they are sleeping or resting. ___18___
You can also manage your child’s fever with an over-the -counter(OTC) medicine, like acetaminophen or ibuprofen medication(退热药). The key thing to understand about acetaminophen or ibuprofen is that while they can make your child more comfortable, they don’t treat the underlying cause of the fever.
How long should I keep my child on OTC fever meds?
Something for parents to keep in mind is that a fever actually helps with the progress of the illness. The fever helps the body fight an infectious process by lowering the amount of virus. ___19___, you shouldn’t keep the fever from rising.
___20___ When a child is on a fever-reducing medication24/7, it’s hard for us to understand the fever curve. As a physician, I won’t know if going down or if the medicine is making it go down.
A. How do I take my child’s temperature
B. Additionally, ensure that your child drink enough water
C. How do I know if my child has a fever
D. Although your child may be uncomfortable
E. When your child’s temperature reaches 38.6℃

第二节（满分25分）
47. 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。
That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theater. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.
As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away any possible robbers (抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.
About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.
Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.
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。
Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the sidewalk next to me.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got to bed.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the sidewalk next to me. I heard a man call my name from the truck. It was surprising! When the voice called me from the inside of the truck, I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and a small red-haired man jumped out. He had an amused look in his eyes, “Is this what you are looking for?” he asked, holding up my wallet. I really couldn’t believe my eyes at the moment. Yes, sir! It was my wallet. Joy welled up inside me when the man handed my wallet to me.
It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got to bed. But I couldn’t fall asleep right away. While I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, I had got my wallet back. I also got something valuable—I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述的是作者在一天的工作之后，感到对这个城市，对生活的对工作都失去了兴趣的时候，因为得到了别人的帮助，又重新燃起了对这个城市生活的喜爱之情。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“就在我要放弃的时候，我听到旁边的人行道上停了一辆垃圾车。”可知，下文可描写垃圾车上的人把钱包还给作者。
②由第二段首句内容“我上床睡觉时已经快凌晨3点了”可知，下文可描写作者睡意全无，回想发生的事情，以及感悟。
2.续写线索：即将放弃时出现垃圾车——有人叫作者的名字——还钱包——高兴——回家已经半夜——回想及感悟
3.词类激活
