On a table at his home in Rosetta, a port city in northern Egypt, self-taught artist Ibrahim Bilal displayed a variety of his signature mini sculptures made with pencil tips.
With about 80 works featuring landmarks and famous people in Egypt and beyond, the 30-year old artist said he was inspired four years ago to thoroughly grasp the art form after watching videos of a Chinese artist carving pencil lead into sculptures.
Fond of ancient Egyptian icons (象征物), Bilal dedicated one of his earliest works to the world-famous Rosetta Stone, an ancient Egyptian relic unearthed in his city and kept in the British Museum. “Being the first Egyptian to master this kind of art, I wanted to present the Egyptian cultural relics in a modern way,” Bilal noted.
Bilal uses a microscope for an enlarged view, a set of pen cutters or carving detail knives, and quality pencils mostly made in Germany or China while working. Through his deft (灵巧的) hands，landmarks across the globe, including the Burj Khalifa skyscraper in Dubai, the Eiffel Tower in Paris, and the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy, emerge on the pencil tips. The size of each sculpture is no more than 6 mm unless it’s a tower, and each takes an average of 10 hours to finish. Some may take him more than 40 hours like his dearest King Tut’s mask. These pieces are so delicate and fragile that has to be wrapped in tissues before sliding into a lab tube for temporary storage.
After graduating from law school, Bilal taught himself to be a painter professional enough to give painting classes to junior artists. He started taking part in exhibitions two years ago. “We use magnifying glasses (放大镜) to allow visitors to see the showcased works on display in detail without having to come too close to them.” Bilal said, noting the feedback from visitors has been awesome. “It was a pencil. But once I turned it into a sculpture, it has to be treated as art as well,” he said.
4. What is the author’s purpose in writing the second paragraph?
A. To introduce the origin of the art form.
B. To highlight the short history of the art form.
C. To reveal how to turn pencils into mini sculptures.
D. To show what made Bilal an artist of pencil tips.
5. What was Bilal’s goal after becoming Egypt’s first pencil tip artist?
A. To teach young artists about the art form.
B. To hold exhibitions of pencil tip sculptures.
C. To promote foreign landmarks through the art form.
D. To show the Egyptian icons with a modern technique.
6. What do we know about Bilal from the text?
A. Bilal got the inspiration from an Egyptian professional.
B. All of Bilal’s sculptures are around 6 mm.
C. The King Tut’s mask cost Bilal much longer time than the average.
D. Bilal’s sculpture display famous structures and people within Egypt.
7. What is the attitude of the people towards the exhibitions?
A. Favourable.
B. Objective.
C. Critical.
D. Indifferent.
【答案】4. D 5. D 6. C 7. A

Recently researchers are discovering that learning is easier, quicker and more long-lasting if it involves the body. To some extent, the discovery should come as no surprise. Consider that many of us probably began to understand basic arithmetic (算术)by counting on our fingers before learning to count in our head.
Conventional thinking had it that as we grew, we became more able to think abstractly, which might suggest teachers should help wean children off body gestures to prepare them for the adult world. But in truth, the physical world never really leaves our thinking. For example, when we process verbs such as lick, kick and pick, medical scanners show that the parts of our brain that control the muscles in our face, legs and hands,respectively,light up with activity.
This theory is called embodied cognition(体验认知),and it suggests that what goes on in our minds stems from(起源于)our actions and interactions with the world around us. It means that encouraging children to think and learn in a purely abstract way might actually make lessons harder for them to understand and remember.
Science is beginning to back up the idea that actions really might speak louder than words in the classroom. Spencer Kelly, a psychologist at Colgate University in New York, has found that people spend three times as much time gesturing when the message they get across is particularly important. Kelly has also found evidence that students like a teacher better when that teacher uses arm and hand movements to emphasize points. Meanwhile, Susan Wagner Cook, a psychologist at the University of Iowa in Iowa City, has found that children pick up new concepts more effectively if they are taught to mirror and repeat the gestures their teacher uses, and that lessons involving words and gestures live longer in a student’s memory than lessons using words alone.
8. What is the text mainly about?
A. A study on classroom teaching.
B. The dark side of thinking abstractly.
C. The function of body language.
D. A new finding about learning.
9. What does the underlined phrase“wean children off body gestures” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Let children be aware of body gestures.
B. Make children stop using body gestures.
C. Give children an account of body gestures.
D. Encourage children to use body gestures.
10. According to embodied cognition,
A. our minds can help shape reality
B. it’s not easy to grasp abstract concepts
C. the environment matters for one’s cognition
D. interacting with the world improves one’s memory
11. What can we learn from Spencer Kelly’s study?
A. Body movements can raise a teacher’s popularity.
B. Young students like to mirror their teacher’s gestures.
C. Using body gestures makes students love learning.
D. Body language is more powerful than spoken language.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了与身体有关的学习更容易、更快、更持久。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Recently researchers are discovering that learning is easier, quicker and more long-lasting if it involves the body. (最近，研究人员发现，与身体有关的学习更容易、更快、更持久)”可知，文章主要讲述的是关于学习的新发现。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上句“Conventional thinking had it that as we grew, we became more able to think abstractly (传统思维认为，随着我们的成长，我们变得更有能力进行抽象思考)”以及“to prepare them for the adult world.(让他们为成人世界做准备)”可知，传统思维可能意味着教师应该让孩子停止使用肢体动作，让他们为成人世界做准备。划线处和B项：Make children stop using body gestures.(让孩子停止使用肢体动作)含义相近。故选B。
10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“This theory is called embodied cognition(体验认知), and it suggests that what goes on in our minds stems from(起源于)our actions and interactions with the world around us. (这一理论被称为体验认知，它认为我们的思想源于我们的行为以及与周围世界的互动)”可知，环境对人的认知很重要。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Kelly has also found evidence that students like a teacher better when that teacher uses arm and hand movements to emphasize points. (凯利还发现有证据表明，当老师用手臂和手的动作来强调要点时，学生更喜欢老师)”可知，肢体动作可以提高老师的受欢迎程度。故选A。
D
Mirko Kovac, using collective building methods inspired by natural builders like bees and wasps, has developed a way to improve the flexibility of 3D printing. A typical 3D printer is limited by the range of its nozzle (喷头), and can only make objects smaller than itself. Dr Kovac’s team has removed these restrictions by giving the printer nozzle wings.
Writing in the latest edition of Nature, Dr Kovac describes a system of flying robots that is composed of two types of drones (无人机): builders and scanners. The builders carry the 3D-printing nozzle. The scanners are robots equipped with cameras that are responsible for monitoring the progress of the builders.
The building process alternates between builders and scanners, layer by layer; Printing and adjusting, until a structure is complete. First,a builder hovers(盘旋)over its area of operation and begins to release a jet of the building material as it moves along its flight path. The choice of material is important — it must be lightweight enough for the drones to carry but powerful enough to hold the subsequent layers that will be built on top.
Once the builder robot has sprayed a layer of material, the scanner robot flies over and inspects the progress. The system then computes the next layer that the builder should make, while also correcting for any errors that might have been discovered in what has already been built. These could be errors made by the builder-drones or imperfections in the expansion of the building material.
While these robots have been shown to be capable of manufacturing by passing some tests with flying co-lours, Dr Kovac says their bread and butter will probably be, initially, in repair, fixing building parts in dangerous or otherwise inaccessible places. Nevertheless, thinking more long term, Dr Kovac even sees a potential future for his construction robots, building on the surfaces of the Moon or Mars.
12. What is the key problem of a typical 3D printer?
A. It is too small.
B. It is not flexible enough.
C. It can’t be moved.
D. It doesn’t draw inspiration from nature.
13. What can we infer about Kovac’s printer from paragraph 4?
A. The process of spraying material works out exactly as planned.
B. It is the scanner robots that decide what the next player should be like.
C. Adaptation is necessary in the building process.
D. Expansion of the building material should be prevented.
14. Where may Kovac’s 3D builders be first used?
A. In repairing buildings.
B. In painting high-rise buildings.
C. In testing the security of buildings.
D. In constructing on the Moon or Mars.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Building Robots
B. Flying 3D Builders
C. Occupying Mars
D. Natural Builders
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了Kovac所创造的飞行3D建造器。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Mirko Kovac, using collective building methods inspired by natural builders like bees and wasps, has developed a way to improve the flexibility of 3D printing. (米尔科·科瓦奇(Mirko Kovac)从蜜蜂和黄蜂等天然建筑者那里获得灵感，采用集体建造方法，开发出了一种提高3D打印灵活性的方法)”可知，3D打印机的关键问题是不够灵活。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“These could be errors made by the builder-drones or imperfections in the expansion of the building material.(这些可能是建造无人机的错误，也可能是建筑材料膨胀的缺陷)”可知，在建筑过程中，对于这些问题的出现，调整是必要的。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Dr Kovac says their bread and butter will probably be, initially, in repair, fixing building parts in dangerous or otherwise inaccessible places. (科瓦奇博士说，他们最初的主要工作可能是修理，在危险或无法到达的地方修理建筑部件)”可知，Kovac的3D建造器首次可能用于建筑修复。故选A。
【15题详解】

Statistics prove that we’re not the best at sticking to New Year’s resolutions. ____16____It turns out you can. Here are some strategies to get your body — and your finances — into shape.
●____17____
Umber Eats or Deliver brings food to your door with almost zero effort on your part but plenty of pressure on your pocket. Remove them from your phone and you’re less likely to overeat a two-large-pizzas-and-garlic-bread meal deal for dinner — and think of all that money you’ll save!
● Store up.
By shopping for fresh food and the makings of a healthy meal in your fridge, you’ll save money and excess (过量的) kilograms because chances are you won’t order last-minute takeaways.____18____In this way, you’ll be cleaning up your eating and your spending at the same time.
● Small steps add up.
____19____Getting rid of unhealthy habits like that doughnut with your coffee will help shave off excess weight over time. Apply that thinking to your savings too. You might think that unless you can put away a serious part of your income that it’s not worth it. Not so. Even depositing as little as $10-20 each pay into a savings account will add up over time.
● Block it.
You can plan to limit your access to processed foods by stocking mainly healthy foods, and making those foods the first thing you see when you open the fridge.____20____Putting a block or limit on an account to help restrict spending is similar to putting a lock on the cookie jar.
A. Don’t skip meals.
B. Delete food delivery apps.
C. The same applies to money.
D. Have healthy meals at home instead.
E. Minor day-to-day decisions have a huge impact on weight loss.
F. No weight-loss goal is complete without a workout component.
G. But what if you could target your diet and financial goals with the one resolution?
【答案】16. G 17. B 18. D 19. E 20. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些让你的身体和财务状况保持良好的策略。
【16题详解】
根据后句“It turns out you can (事实证明你可以)”可知，本句是对上句的问题的回答。由此可知，G项：But what if you could target your diet and financial goals with the one resolution?(但如果你能用一个决心来确定你的饮食和财务目标呢？)提出问题，合乎题意。故选G。
【17题详解】
设空处概括本段内容，为本段小标题， 设空处与上下段的首句句式保持一致，即应是祈使句。根据后文“Umber Eats or Deliver brings food to your door with almost zero effort on your part but plenty of pressure on your pocket. Remove them from your phone and you’re less likely to overeat a two-large-pizzas-and-garlic-bread meal deal for dinner (Umber Eats or Deliver将食物送到你的门口，你几乎不用付出任何努力，但你的口袋却有很大的压力。把它们从你的手机上拿掉，你就不太可能在晚餐时吃太多两个大披萨和大蒜面包)”讲述的是外卖app带来的巨大的压力。由此可知， B项：Delete food delivery apps.(删除外卖app)起到概括和解释标题作用。故选B。
【18题详解】
根据上句“By shopping for fresh food and the makings of a healthy meal in your fridge, you’ll save money and excess(过量的)kilograms because chances are you won’t order last-minute takeaways. (通过购买新鲜的食物和冰箱里的健康食物，你将节省金钱和多余的体重，因为你很有可能不会在最后一刻点外卖)”可知，D项：Have healthy meals at home instead.(在家里吃健康的食物)承接上句，给出不点外卖的另一种解决办法，是在家里吃健康的食物。故选D。
【19题详解】
根据后句“Getting rid of unhealthy habits like that doughnut with your coffee will help shave off excess weight over time (改掉不健康的习惯，比如在喝咖啡时吃甜甜圈，久而久之就能减掉多余的体重)”可知，E项：Minor day-to-day decisions have a huge impact on weight loss.(日常的小决定对减肥有巨大的影响)与后句所描述的日常的小决定形成呼应关系。故选E。
【20题详解】
根据上句“You can plan to limit your access to processed foods by stocking mainly healthy foods, and making those foods the first thing you see when you open the fridge. (你可以计划通过储存健康食品来限制你对加工食品的接触，并让这些食品成为你打开冰箱时第一眼看到的东西)”以及后句“Putting a block or limit on an account to help restrict spending is similar to putting a lock on the cookie jar. (对一个账户进行封锁或限制，以帮助限制支出，这类似于给饼干罐上锁)”可知， C项：The same applies to money.(这同样适用于金钱)承上启下，并和下文的建议相呼应。故选C。

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了三星堆遗址挖掘出来的古董的情况。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：三星堆被公认为20世纪重要的古代遗迹之一，有3000年历史，是一件国宝级文物，埋藏着各种玉器、青铜和金器。根据句子结构可知，此处考查非谓语动词，动词recognize与逻辑主语Sanxingdui之间是“动宾关系”，应用过去分词形式作状语。故填Recognized。
【37题详解】
考查名词。句意：几天前，三号坑出土了一个完整的金面具，重约10克，宽37.2厘米，高16.5厘米。介词in之后缺少介词宾语，需填名词。且根据提示，故填weight。
【38题详解】
考查语态和时态。句意：几天前，三号坑出土了一个完整的金面具，重约10克，宽37.2厘米，高16.5厘米。主语 a complete gold mask与动词unearth之间是“被动关系”，根据时间状语从句“a few days ago”，所以用一般过时的被动语态，主语为单数名词，be动词为was。故填was unearthed。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意：金面具与从同一个坑里挖出的青铜头像的尺寸基本相同。此处缺少副词作为状语。故填basically。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意：因此，专家们认为它最初是附着在青铜头部的面部。 attach to为固定搭配，意为“附着”符合句意。故填to。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意：与此同时，一个巨大的青铜面具被从坑中挖掘出来。可数名词big bronze mask前缺少冠词，且此处表示“泛指”，big是辅音音素开头，故填a。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意：这是该遗址迄今为止发现的最大的青铜面具。形容词作为定语修饰名词bronze mask，且此处表示“最大的青铜面具”，应用最高级，故填largest。
【43题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：青铜面具引起了中国网民的好奇心，他们对这个发型的评论让他们想起了生活在三国时期的中国政治家和军事家诸葛亮戴的皇冠形帽子。此处的非限制性定语从句的引导词，在句中作为定语修饰 comments，且代指“中国网民的”，故填whose。
【44题详解】
考查时态。句意：总的说，考古学家在过去几个月里发现了500多件文物，对其历史和艺术价值印象深刻。句中有时间状语over the last few months，应用现在完成时，且主语为可数名词复数the archaeologists，故填have discovered。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意：总的说，考古学家在过去几个月里发现了500多件文物，对其历史和艺术价值印象深刻。此处的historical和artistic是并列成分，故填and。

If there was one thing that Ellen Rafferty hated more than driving, it was driving in the rain. This evening, on her way back from work, Ellen saw a little child standing by the side of the road in the pouring rain. So she hit the brakes sharply, and pulled over by the side of the road next to the child.
It was a little boy, maybe four or five, and he was shaking and hugging himself. As soon as he saw Ellen, his face. brightened. “Hello!” he said,“Are you my mommy?”
“No,”Ellen said in the icy rain. “I’m not! What are you doing here? Where are your parents?”
“Oh,” the boy said disappointingly. “I don’t know where my mom is. She left me on the road when it was raining, and I think she must be looking for me.”
“What’s your name? Where do you live?”
“I’m David. I live at the Doris Farmer Institute for Children.”
“The orphanage(孤儿院)?” asked Ellen. “But that is far!” Just then, there was a terrible flash of lightning and even more rain poured down as thunder rolled across the sky. “Come on,”Ellen said. “I’m taking you home. I’ll call the orphanage to come and fetch you.” Ellen took the boy home.
She didn’t quite know what to do with him, so she turned on a heater and wrapped him with a blanket. Then she called the orphanage and told them that she found one of their children, who named David, on the road. But the woman on the phone said it was too late and they couldn’t come to fetch him.
Sighing,Ellen hung up the phone and looked at the boy. At the same time, her cat Gandalf walked in and rubbed himself against Ellen’s legs. Ellen picked the cat up and kissed his head. “Come on, my baby,” she said softly, “Mommy’s gonna feed you...” When she looked up, she was shocked by the longing in David’s eyes,

【答案】One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
“I wish I was your cat,”he said sadly.Ellen was confused by his words.“I just want the love you give him..”David said softly.Ellen then put her arms around the boy.“Oh,sweetie!”Ellen whispered and tears ran down her face as she rocked David in her arms. For the first time, there are motherhood feelings in her heart. When the woman from the orphanage arrived at Ellen’s house that evening, she found David and Ellen playing cards and eating cheese on the kitchen table. Ellen had thought David’s leaving would be a relief but once he was gone, the house felt strange and empty.
Paragraph 2:
The next day, Ellen got into her car again and drove to the orphanage to ask about David. She was worried he might catch a cold and wondered if he’s alright. When she got there, the staff assured her that David was in perfect health. Since then, Ellen started visiting David nearly every day. Three months later she spoke to the director and asked about the possibility of adopting David. “It’s not an easy process,”the director warned.“But if you love this child, it is worth it!”The director was right. It wasn’t easy at all, but a year later, Ellen took David home. They became real mommy and son at last.
