I first visited the UK on a vacation as a curious 15-year-old in 2013. The rich culture of London, the beautiful highlands of Scotland and the sunny beaches of Wales deeply attracted me. I decided then that I wanted to pursue my university education in the UK.
Fast forward to 2016 and I arrived at the University of Bristol. The first couple of weeks were great. But after my first month, I started missing my parents, my little sister, the food and the warm, sunny weather.
There was also another problem. Having always studied an Indian curriculum, which is objective, learning-based and strict, I found it difficult to adjust to several aspects of the British education system. The freedom of choosing which lectures to go to, the highly subjective (主观的) and thought-encouraging discussions at tutorials (辅导课) and a large amount of reading I was expected to do caught me off-guard (措手不及的).
It was not until my first end-of-term exams were over in January 2017 that I could slow down and think carefully about the things that I was doing wrong and the things that I got right. The week after my exams ended, I realised how little time I had spent outside the university libraries and my living place.
So I tried new cafés in Clifton, and going for walks near the famous Clifton Suspension Bridge. I also started watching British TV shows. And I evolved socially too. I finally found the societies (社团) I wanted to join. I also realised the importance of staying in touch with my tutors and not being afraid of needing and asking for help. I made some amazing friends in Bristol. If it had not been for the people around me, my first year would not have been as good as it was.
Overall, my second term ended on a much more relaxed and happier note than the first. I wrote my final exams in May and, before I knew it, I had finished my first year of university.
4. What was the author’s first visit to the UK like?
A. Risky B. Romantic C. Boring D. Impressive
5. What problem did the author face after arriving at the University of Bristol?
A. She found it difficult to read in English.
B. She couldn’t get along well with her classmates.
C. She was unprepared for the new way of studying.
D. She didn’t have much freedom when choosing lectures.
6. Which of the following did the author consider important for her after her first exams?
A. Staying in touch with her tutors and making new friends.
B. Spending time at the library.
C. Chatting online with old friends.
D. Learning English through TV shows.
7. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To show us the importance of education.
B. To compare two different education systems.
C. To introduce the author’s first year as an international student.
D. To encourage more students to study in a UK university.
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. C
【解析】

【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段关键句“I first visited the UK on a vacation as a curious 15-year-old in 2013. The rich culture of London, the beautiful highlands of Scotland and the sunny beaches of Wales deeply attracted me.”（2013年，作为一个好奇的15岁少年，我第一次去英国度假。伦敦丰富的文化、苏格兰美丽的高地和威尔士阳光明媚的海滩深深吸引了我。）可知，作者第一次去英国度假时，伦敦丰富的文化、苏格兰美丽的高地和威尔士阳光明媚的海滩深深吸引了她，让她印象深刻，由此可知，作者第一次访问英国，英国给作者留下了深刻的印象。故选D项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段内容“There was also another problem. Having always studied an Indian curriculum, which is objective, learning-based and strict, I found it difficult to adjust to several aspects of the British education system. The freedom of choosing which lectures to go to, the highly subjective (主观的) and thought-encouraging discussions at tutorials (辅导课) and a large amount of reading I was expected to do caught me off-guard (措手不及的).”（还有一个问题。我一直学习印度的课程，它是客观的、以学习为基础的、严格的，我发现很难适应英国教育体系的几个方面。自由选择去哪门课，在辅导课上进行的高度主观和思想鼓励的讨论，以及我应该要做的大量阅读，这让我措手不及。）可知，印度的学习方法和英国的学习方法不同，印度是客观的、以学习为基础的、严格的教育方法，英国则更加自由，这让作者毫无准备，感到措手不及，由此可知，作者到达布里斯托大学后，她对新的学习方式毫无准备。故选C项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段关键句“I also realised the importance of staying in touch with my tutors and not being afraid of needing and asking for help.

Why do you go to the library? For books, yes—but you like books because they tell stories. You hope to get lost in a story or be transported into someone else’s life. At one type of library you can do just that—even though there’s not a single book.
At a Human Library, instead of books, you can “borrow” people. People with unique life stories volunteer to be the “books.” For a certain amount of time, you can ask them questions and listen to their stories, which are as fascinating as any you can find in a book. (If you attend, be sure to review the habits that make you a good listener.) Many of the stories have to do with some kind of depressing topic. You can speak with a refugee, a soldier suffering from PTSD（创伤后遗症）, a homeless person and a woman living with HIV. The Human Library encourages people
to take time to truly get to know and learn from someone they might otherwise make a snap judgement about. According to its website, the Human Library is “a place where difficult questions are expected, appreciated and answered.”
The Human Library Organization came to be in Copenhagen, Denmark in 2000.Romni Abergel and his colleagues hosted a four—day event during a major Northern European festival. After the success of this event, Abergel founded the Human Library Organization, hoping to raise awareness among youth about depression, which has been growing ever since.
Though there are a few permanent human libraries, most aren’t places at all, but events. Though many do take place at physical libraries, you don’t need a library card—anyone can come and be part of the experience. There have been human library events all over the globe, in universities and in pubs, from Chicago to Tunis to Edinburgh to San Antonio. Check out the organization’s Facebook page to see when the Human Library might be arriving near you.
8. What shall we do before going to the Human Library?
A. Bring a book. B. Get a library card.
C. Make an appointment. D. Go over some listening habits.
9. What does the underlined word “snap” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. True B. Quick.
C. Wrong. D. Obvious.
10. Why did Ronmi Abergel found the Human Library Organization?
A. He expected to answer different questions.
B. He successfully held an event in Northern Europe.
C. He wanted young people to pay attention to depression.
D. He had set up the Human Libraries all over the world.
11. What is the best title of the text?
A. “Borrow” People Instead of Books B. Human Library Organization
C. Human Library Is Near You D. A Library in Denmark
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了人类图书馆，在人类图书馆，借的不是书本，你可以“借”人。这些有着独特生活经历的人自愿成为“书”，在一定的时间内，你可以问他们问题，听他们的故事，这些故事和你在书中所能找到的一样引人入胜。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“ If you attend, make sure to review the habits that make you a good listener.” 如果你要参加，一定要复习使你成为一个好听众的习惯。故选D项。
【9题详解】
猜测词义题。根据第二段中的“The Human Library encourages people to take time to truly get to know and learn from someone they might otherwise make a snap judgement about.”可知， 人类图书馆鼓励人们花时间去真正了解和学习，否则他们可能会对某人做出仓促的判断。take time to为固定短语，表示“慢慢地做某事”。根据otherwise（否则的话），表示前后两句是相反的，因此与“慢慢地做某事（take time ）”的相反的则是快速的。分析选项可知B项（Quick快的）。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Abergel founded the Human Library Organization, hoping to raise awareness among youth about depression, which has been growing ever since.” Abergel成立了人类图书馆组织，希望提高青年对抑郁症在意识，从而不断成长。由此判断出Ronmi Abergel建立图书馆的目的就是想让年轻人注意到抑郁。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了人类图书馆，在人类图书馆，借的不是书本，你可以“借”人。这些有着独特生活经历的人自愿成为“书”，在一定的时间内，你可以问他们问题，听他们的故事，这些故事和你在书中所能找到的一样引人入胜。分析选项可知A项“ 人类图书馆”为短文最佳标题，故选A项。
D
A team of Australian scientists has discovered a curious “chocolate frog”, a tree frog, in the lowland rainforests of New Guinea. Tree frogs are known for their green skin — but due to its brown coloring, researchers named it “chocolate frog”.
“The closest known relative of ‘chocolate frog’ is the Australian green tree frog. The two species look similar except one is usually green, while the new species usually has a lovely chocolate coloring,”said Paul Oliver, the author who described the discovery in a paper in the journal Australian Journal of Zoology.
Australia and New Guinea were linked by land 2. 6 million years ago, which may account for(解释) the reason why they have similar species. But now, New Guinea is covered by rainforest, while northern Australia is mainly savannah(稀树草原). Green tree frogs can be found across northern and eastern Australia and New Guinea. Australian scientists discovered one of the new creatures in 2016, according to the paper, and they think the animal could be widespread across New Guinea.
“The ‘chocolate frog’ lives in very hot and wet areas with lots of crocodiles, which discourages exploration,” co-author Steve Richards said. Although the creatures may look like the magical snacks found in the Harry Potter series, the similarities stop there.
“We later named this new frog species Mira, which means ‘surprised’ or ‘strange’ in Latin, because it was a surprising discovery. It was Australia’s well-known and common tree frogs’ over-looked relative living in the lowland rain-forests of New Guinea,” Oliver said. “Researching into the biotic(生物的) interchange between these two regions is critical to understanding how the rainforest and savannah habitat types have expanded and narrowed over time,” Oliver said. “Our study on divergence(分化) of the new species shows that 5. 3 to 2. 6 million years ago, there was still connectivity between the two species across lowland tropical habitats of northern Australia and New Guinea.”
12. How did the newly found frog get its name at first?
A. By its skin color. B. By its living place.
C. By its small number. D. By its special shape.
13. Why do Australia and New Guinea have similar frogs?
A. They are both rich in food for frogs. B. They both have large grass coverage.
C. They have the same kind of climate. D. They were linked with each other.
14. According to Oliver, studying the biotic interchange is the key to ________.
A. predicting existing habitats for animals
B. knowing about the change in plant cover
C. recognizing different kinds of animals
D. protecting the endangered plants
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. Frog species are widely found in rainforests worldwide.
B. Australian tree frogs change their coloring in New Guinea.
C. The geographical environment affects changes in species.
D. Scientists discovered a new “chocolate frog” in New Guinea.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍科学家在新几内亚发现了一个新物种“巧克力蛙”。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Tree frogs are known for their green skin — but due to its brown coloring, researchers named it ‘chocolate frog’.(树蛙以其绿色的皮肤而闻名，——但由于它是褐色的，研究人员将其命名为‘巧克力蛙’)”可知，新发现的青蛙是由于其颜色而得名。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Australia and New Guinea were linked by land 2. 6 million years ago, which may account for(解释) the reason why they have similar species.(澳大利亚和新几内亚在260万年前因陆地而相连，这可能解释了为什么它们有相似的物种)”可知，澳大利亚和新几内亚在260万年前因陆地而相连，所以它们有相似的物种。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“‘Researching into the biotic(生物的) interchange between these two regions is critical to understanding how the rainforest and savannah habitat types have expanded and narrowed over time,’ Oliver said.(‘研究这两个地区之间的生物交换对于理解雨林和稀树草原栖息地类型是如何随着时间的推移而扩大和缩小的至关重要。’ Oliver说)”可知，Oliver认为研究生物交换是了解植物覆盖度变化的关键。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章内容，结合第一段中“A team of Australian scientists has discovered a curious ‘chocolate frog’, a tree frog, in the lowland rainforests of New Guinea.(一组澳大利亚科学家在新几内亚的低地雨林中发现了一种奇怪的‘巧克力蛙’，一种树蛙)”可知，文章主要介绍科学家在新几内亚发现了一个新物种“巧克力蛙”。故选D。

【44题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：今天，这个经典的儿童角色已经成长为英国文化的组成部分。结合句意和语境可知，空处谓语动词需用现在完成时态：has/have done，表示过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响；主语是单数 character，所以此处助动词需用has。故填has grown。
