A
In the short time Steve and Zach had been inside their tent packing their tools, wind-blown flame had skipped from the top of one tree to another. The long dry summer had turned the forest into a tinderbox.
“Let’s go! We can make it back to the river we crossed today!” Steve kept Brady on the lead and their heads down against the fire-wind. But Brady barked a sharp warning. Ahead of them lay a thick curtain of smoke across the track. They would never make it through that. The dog was pulling at his lead trying to draw them away from the smoke, and yet Steve was uneasy. It seemed to him that they were moving away from the river.
Suddenly, Zach cried. “Zach!” Steve shouted. “Are you OK? Where are you?” Then Brady pulled Steve down a sharp slope (坡). At its base, Zach was rubbing his ankle.
As Steve helped his friend to his feet, Brady lifted his head and snuffed (嗅) the smoke-laden wind. Next moment, the dog bounded away and disappeared. The boys shouted for him, but he didn’t come back. Steve couldn’t blame Brady for panicking. He himself wanted to run even though he didn’t have a clue which way.
Steve and Zach hadn’t gone far when there was a familiar bark, and Brady came bounding, stopped directly in front of Steve and hit him with his head, pushing him back toward the slope they’d just climbed. But Steve didn’t get it. Then Brady grabbed the boy’s jeans and started pulling. The message was clear, but Steve hesitated. Of course he remembered Brady saving his uncle’s life when the dog was much younger. Was he still sharp enough to get them through this?
Nearby, a pine went up in a whoosh of smoke. Brady pulled again, urgently. “OK, big guy,” Steve gritted (咬紧牙关). Brady led them back down the slope and into the trees. Not far from them fire was touching underbrush. Several times the big dog stopped. Often he changed directions. Steve was so tired that he just wanted to rest, but Brady wouldn’t have it. The dog bullied both boys to go on. How long they’d walked Steve had no idea. He was almost numb when he heard it — the wonderful sound of rushing water!
1．What happened to Steve and Zach at first?
A．They got injured. B．They lost their dog.
C．They were trapped. D．They became separated.
2．How did Steve feel after Brady pulled his jeans?
A．Uneasy. B．Impatient. C．Numb. D．Uncertain.
3．The passage basically describes ________.
A．an adventure B．an exploration
C．an escape game D．a training program

When I found an advertisement for a conference by chance, I couldn’t wait to tell my coworkers. It looked like a great day of presentations highly relevant to our research, and I expected they would be eager to attend with me. However, no one was interested.
A year earlier, I left India for the United Kingdom to pursue my research career. At work, I shied away from engaging in discussions or putting forward my opinions. I was afraid my coworkers would realize how weak I really felt. Some mornings just stepping out of my room and going into the lab seemed a tough task.
Socializing didn’t help, as I constantly feared committing social mistakes. I longed for new experiences, but my insecurities prevented me. I started to keep more and more to myself. That began to change after a quiet breakdown in the lab prompted (促使) me to contact the university’s mental health services. The consultant suggested I attend a nearby concert by a famous singer from my home country. I couldn’t miss it. So, there I was in the packed concert hall, surrounded by strangers—all of us clapping and singing the choruses of the familiar songs. It was a beautiful night, and it proved to be a turning point.
My growing self-confidence carried over into my work, where I started to speak up and put forward my opinions. I offered to help coworkers design and trouble shoot experiments. I began to ask questions during departmental meetings. I finally felt like an active member of the group. So, when that conference came around, I felt comfortable registering to attend on my own-and I’m so glad I did. Not only did I meet the speakers, but I also introduced myself to other attendees. The encounters inspired me to critically evaluate my own professional interests.
4．How did the author probably feel at first about his coworkers’ response?
A．Eager. B．Worried. C．Disappointed. D．Uninterested.
5．Why did the author contact the mental health services?
A．He wanted to solve a conflict. B．He struggled to conduct research.
C．He often made big mistakes in socializing. D．He lacked confidence in a new environment.
6．What happened during the concert?
A．The author got the consultant’s help. B．The author sang along with the strange audience.
C．The author met with a previous coworker. D．The author connected a song with his research.
7．What did the author do at last?
A．He went to the conference alone. B．He turned to experts for advice.
C．He took full charge of the lab. D．He changed his professional interests.

Most of us spend a lot of time trying to figure out what makes us. We search the Internet for personality quizzes. We think endlessly over the things we’ve said or done. We pick teams-shy or outgoing—and then make our decisions through the label we’ve chosen. Other people, though-that can be a little more of a puzzle. It’s not likely that you can get much insight (深入了解) from taking a personality quiz on someone else’s behalf. But new research suggests that all that self-reflection you’ve been doing may be helpful here—a team of psychologists found a close link between greater self-awareness and social intelligence. The team leader Bockler said, “To get inside other people’s heads, then it may be best to start with your own.”
Over the course of three months, Bockler and her colleagues collected data from 161 people between the ages of 20 and 50 as they experienced a “thoughtful training” designed to help them focus on their inner lives. The participants who improved most over course of the training were also the ones who showed the most growth in how easily they could infer another person, s mental state, a skill known as the theory of mind.
Bockler believes these results are especially important given our current state of affairs. “Many of the global challenges that we face today—taking in refugees (难民), overcoming between-group conflicts, or leading more sustainable (可持续的) lives—require that we put ourselves in the shoes of others,” she said.
Still, we tend to seek inner consideration as a goal in itself, while underestimating (低估) the ways it can also help us connect more closely to others. Self-awareness isn’t limited to just us—it spreads out into our relationships, too. Taking all those personality quizzes when you’re bored on your computer may not be the most helpful in that regard (就这一点而言), but by trying to become more aware of your own thoughts, you can begin to shape yourself into someone more sympathetic (富有同情心的), more smart and better at understanding the world outside your head.
8．What is implied in the first paragraph?
A．A personality quiz turns out a puzzle.
B．People prefer to do personality quizzes.
C．There are few strategies to understand others.
D．Self-awareness has nothing to do with social intelligence.
9．What is the theory of mind according to the text?
A．A pattern of personal behaviors.
B．A sign of inner personalities.
C．A standard for the mental state.
D．A skill to understand others.
10．What Bockler said proved that the results are  ’.
A．practical to deal with modem social problems
B．the solutions to the current global challenges
C．a basis for a world without any conflicts
D．the requirements for the sustainable lives of refugees
11．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the appreciation of others  ’.
A．isn’t a limit to self-awareness at all
B．goes hand in hand with self-understanding
C．is our way of being connected with others
D．makes us care more about our own thoughts

Known as a “living fossil”, the Chinese sturgeon (中华鲟) is a very precious species. It is believed to have lived alongside the dinosaurs more than 140 million years ago. Although dinosaurs are long since gone, the Chinese sturgeon still exists. However, the species has been listed as “Critically Endangered” on the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s Red List of Threatened Species.
On May 14, Shanghai legislators (立法机构) passed a new law protecting the Chinese sturgeon, emphasizing “regional cooperation”, according to China Daily. “This is the first local legislation in the country to protect one endangered fish,” said Ding Wei, director of the legislative affairs committee of the Shanghai Municipal People’s Congress.
Taken effect on June 6, the regulation urges cooperation in law enforcement (实施), scientific research and rescue of the species between Shanghai and other provinces and regions in the Yangtze River basin, according to People’s Daily.
The need for collaborative efforts is due to the living habitat of the Chinese sturgeon. As an anadromous (溯河产卵的) species, it mainly lives in the Yangtze River and depends on the Vangtze estuary (河口) for migration.
The protection of the Chinese sturgeon is urgent. China began the artificial breeding and release of the fish in 1984. However, very few of the fanned fish have survived in the wild, the number of which is less than 1,000, according to a report by the Shanghai Observer.
Whether this species can be preserved depends on the natural population. “If the natural population is not well protected, the Chinese sturgeon is in danger of extinction.” Li Furong, vice chairperson of the Agricultural and Rural Affairs Committee of Shanghai Municipal People’s Congress, said in the report.
Since Jan 1 of this year, a 10-year fishing ban on key areas of the Yangtze River basin has been issued, covering 332 nature reserves, which includes Shanghai’s Chinese sturgeon nature reserve.
12．What is the new law passed on May 14 in Shanghai about?
A．Protecting the Chinese sturgeon.

B．Forbidding fishing in the area.
C．Increasing the reproduction of the Chinese sturgeon.
D．Listing the Chinese sturgeon as an endangered species.
13．What do we know about the Chinese sturgeon?
A．It mainly lives in the waters of Shanghai.
B．Artificial breeding technology costs too much.
C．Farmed fish multiplies quickly.
D．Saving the species depends on protecting their natural population.
14．What’s the meaning of the underlined word “collaborative” in Paragraph 4?
A．Immediate. B．Joint. C．Urgent. D．Further.
15．What’s the best title of the passage?
A．The Chinese Sturgeon: Living Fossil
B．Artificial Breeding: Future of the Chinese Sturgeon
C．A New Law for the Chinese Sturgeon
D．Call for Conservation of the Environment

I'm crazy about running. Sometimes the pain of running can have a magic influence on a runner. Throughout any given race, you are suffering. Your lungs feel like they're being squeezed  (挤压) by something unseen. But it is in this pain that a great runner is created.
My first cross-country coach told me that every race is run with patience and determination. I've carried this advice with me for hundreds of miles. I especially remember the 5 miles of running in one race, where his words encouraged me a lot.
That day the weather was perfect. I and dozens of runners gathered at the starting line to do some last-minute preparations for the running. Then, we lined up and got ready to start. There was a brief moment before the gun gave a signal of running. In that moment of great stress, I determined to push myself to run as fast as possible, hoping to make my coach proud, who was waiting for me at the finish line. When the sound of "Bang" came up, we were off.
Running between runners, I managed to work my way up in the first 400 meters and passed many racers on my sides. But out of good sportsmanship, we each said a "good job" or "keep up" to every person we passed. Although we were competitors, running was a connection we all shared.
The first mile passed quickly in a feeling of excitement. It was not challenging in the beginning of the running. But I knew it would be harder and harder in the following miles. I made full use of the running skills that my coach had taught me. I checked that I was doing everything right, breathing in through my nose, keeping my hands relaxed and pumping (快速摆动) my arms. However, the shadow of tiredness danced before me. Anyway I tried to push it out of my mind.
With time going by, the competition became fiercer. Every runner tried their best to run in order to gain a good place in the race. Audience along the track shouted and cheered us.
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。
Eventually I reached the final mile.

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了教师如何去激励青少年阅读的几个方法。
16．上文“Require students to spend at least 20 minutes in independent reading every day.(要求学生每天至少花20分钟进行独立阅读)”提到了教师要求学生每天至少花20分钟进行独立阅读，这是一个规律的行为；由下文“teachers show that they consider reading very important. Therefore, they always find time to read even though they are terribly busy.(教师表示他们认为阅读很重要。因此，即使他们非常忙，他们也总能找到时间阅读)”可知教师们每天再忙也会抽出时间阅读，这是教师自己的日常习惯；选项F “By taking part in this regular activity themselves(通过他们亲自参加这种有规律的活动)”承接了上文所述的有规律的行为，提出了教师要亲自参与这种有规律的阅读活动，引出了下文教师对于他们日常实际上存在阅读习惯的阐述，与本段标题“Lead by Example(以身作则)”相吻合；故选F项。
17．由标题“Freedom to Choose(自由选择)”可知本段讲述与自由选择相关的内容；下文“For those who forget their books, provide them with access to novels, magazines or newspapers during required reading time. Consider allowing students to use their personal e-readers.(对于那些忘记书本的人，在规定的阅读时间内为他们提供阅读小说、杂志或报纸的机会。考虑允许学生使用他们的个人电子阅读器)”讲述了为学生的阅读提供便利机会的方式；选项G “Allow students to pick their own literature, as long as it is suitable for school reading(让学生自己挑选文学作品，只要适合学校阅读)”讲述的正是让学生自由选择喜欢的文学作品，只要适合在学习阅读，与本段标题相吻合，同时引出了下文对于具体为方便学生自由选择文学作品而采取的方法的阐述；故选G项。
18．上文“Teachers’ excitement for a particular book may have a huge influence on their students. Give students a taste of what the book is about.(某一特定的书能引起老师的兴奋可能会对他们的学生产生巨大的影响。让学生体验一下这本书的内容)”提到了教师可以让学生体验一下自己所感兴趣的书本的内容；下文“suggest your favorite(推荐你所喜欢的)”提到了推荐自己所喜欢的，推知空处所述内容是在某个特定的时候；选项B“Then when it comes time for them to choose a new book(然后当他们选择一本新书的时候)”讲述的正是在学生选择新书这个特定的时候，与下文相连接，引出下文对于这个特定时候给予推荐的这种方式的阐述，同时承接了上文；故选B项。
19．上文“Make time to visit the school library and require students to borrow at least one book of interest.(抽出时间参观学校图书馆，并要求学生至少借一本感兴趣的书)”提到了要求学生去图书馆借书；下文“By doing so, they can make sure the book fits their interests.(通过这样做，他们可以确保这本书符合他们的兴趣)”也是在讲述借书的相关内容；选项D“Encourage them to spend some time reading the book before borrowing(鼓励他们在借阅之前花一些时间阅读这本书)”承接了上文所述的让学生去图书馆借书的内容，同时与上下文构成逻辑关系，即鼓励他们在借阅之前花一些时间阅读这本书，通过这样做，他们可以确保这本书符合他们的兴趣，然后才去借；故选D项。
20．上文“With varied activities competing for students’ time and attention, it can be difficult to encourage youngsters to read(由于各种活动争夺学生的时间和注意力，因此很难鼓励年轻人阅读)”讲述了由于学生平时要参加各种活动可能没有时间和经历来阅读；下文“Teachers who make independent reading a daily part of the classroom experience and find creative ways to motivate their students may be on the way to writing a success story.(那些将独立阅读作为日常课堂体验的一部分，并找到创造性方法激励学生的教师，可能正走在写成功故事的道路上)”提到了如果教师找到创造性的方法来激励学生去阅读，那这个教师是成功的，其实就在强调阅读对于学生的重要性；选项E “However, there is little doubt that reading can help with students’ studies(然而，毫无疑问，阅读可以帮助学生学习)”与上文构成转折，意在表明虽然由于各种活动让学生没有时间和精力阅读，但是毫无疑问，阅读是可以帮助学生学习的，即阅读对于学生是有用的重要的，与下文内容主旨相符，都在强调阅读对于学生的重要性；故选E项。

这是一篇记叙文。作者描述了自己一次具有挑战性的徒步旅行。
36．考查倒装句型、助动词。句意：我一直很喜欢散步，但我从来没有想过自己会在10天内走完200多公里，成为徒步旅行的粉丝，最后在葡萄牙与当地的一家旅行社合作开发自助徒步路线，这是我生意的一部分。根据句意可知，此处指“过去从来没有想象过”，应用一般过去时，否定词never用于句首，引出半倒装句型，后文为动词原形imagine，故用助动词did。故填did。
37．考查形容词。句意：从一个满足于简单的三个小时步行到一个有经验的多日徒步旅行者的转变，开始于葡萄牙的圣地亚哥之路的短暂体验，以及通过葡萄牙到西班牙的孔波斯特拉大教堂的古老朝圣之路。根据后文名词hiker可知，此处应用其形容词experienced作定语修饰名词。故填experienced。
38．考查形容词。句意：早在2013年，我就在导游的带领下，沿着Ponte de Lima以北的Camino山最美丽、最具挑战性的一段路进行了一天的徒步旅行，所以这是一项艰苦的工作，但从拉布鲁贾山顶俯瞰的景色让我觉得这次攀登是值得的。根据句意和前文and及后文名词可知，此处应用其形容词challenging和前文形容词beautiful并列修饰名词作定语。故填challenging。
39．考查固定句型、结果状语从句。句意：在Camino山上经历了日复一日的挑战之后，我的导游们对抵达Sangtiago de Compostela Cathedral的兴奋之感如此热情，以至于我开始想要尝试一下，尽管我不是宗教信徒。so…that…“如此……以至于……”是固定句型，根据前文so enthusiastic可知，此处应用that引导结果状语从句。故填that。
40．考查介词。句意：在Camino山上经历了日复一日的挑战之后，我的导游们对抵达Sangtiago de Compostela Cathedral的兴奋之感如此热情，以至于我开始想要尝试一下，尽管我不是宗教信徒。后文动名词短语not being religious和前文有转折关系，故用介词despite构成介词短语，符合句意。故填despite。
41．考查非谓语动词。句意：过了几年，我和我的一个朋友从巴塞罗那出发，去追随葡萄牙人的圣地亚哥之路。根据句意可知，此处应用动词不定式作状语，表目的。故填to follow。
42．考查感叹句、宾语从句。句意：除了背部疼痛，我认为我很健康，但没有任何东西能让我在每天步行结束时感到如此筋疲力尽。分析可知，此处引导宾语从句，从句中用副词how修饰形容词exhausted，构成感叹句。故填how。
43．考查时态。句意：我原以为会有很多观光活动，但结果却很少。根据句意和后文ended可知，此处表示“原来以为，原来料想”，动词expect的动作发生在ended之前，故应用过去完成时，表示“过去的过去”。故填had expected。
44．考查代词。句意：我永远不会忘记每天步行结束时的成就感和进步，以及当我们最终到达Santiago de Compostela时的欣慰和自豪。make it“成功”是固定短语，符合句意。故填it。
45．考查定语从句。句意：我们遇到了来自各行各业的人，他们成功地走了几次Camino，我完全可以理解它为什么会上瘾。分析可知，此处引导限制性定语从句，先行词为people，关系代词who或that引导从句，在从句中作主语，指人。故填who/that。

47．Possible version:
Eventually I reached the final mile. It was then that I felt extremely tired and sweat fell down my face. Many runners in the race had fallen behind, but I refused to be one of them. Instead, I chose to pump my legs a little faster and push myself a little harder. As the last half mile was near, the number of people along the track increased. Around the next corner, I could see my coach waving to me in great excitement. I tried to run faster.
Unfortunately, I suddenly fell down. I felt great pain and discouraged. Just at that moment, the audience shouted, "Come on, girl!” "Watch out!” "Keep up!” Meanwhile, a runner behind me came to me and gave me a lift. I was really grateful and encouraged. I stood up and ran for the final 400 meters. When I finally sailed over the finish line, I nearly cried with relief. I won the third place in the race. My coach was proud of me and I felt great too.
