E. O. Wilson, “the Darwin of the 21st century”, is considered the world’s leading expert on ants and a pioneer of the theory of biodiversity.
Wilson was born in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1929. When he was young, he was crazy about the natural world and spent his childhood exploring woods and observing insects. When he was in high school, he narrowed his focus down to the study of insects. After earning his master’s degree in biology in the University of Alabama, he went to Harvard University to work for a PhD in 1951. After graduation, he remained there for his career as a teacher.
Wilson authored many books and was awarded quite a few prizes, such as the Crafoord Prize and the Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction. Wilson has a strong gift for storytelling and narrative. His books are easy to understand and can attract readers, even those who don’t care much for scientific topics. In his writings, Wilson further enlarged his study from biology to other subjects, such as sociobiology, geography and even art.
The friendship between the scientist Finch and Wilson is also worth mentioning. “On his 88th birthday he wanted to collect ants in the delta so we wandered through an Alabama woodland,” Finch recalled, “We also went to other areas like two boys getting into the woods.” After retiring from teaching in 1996, Wilson founded the E. O. Wilson Biodiversity Foundation to promote worldwide understanding of the importance of biodiversity. “He’s still writing,” said Finch. “He always tells me,” This is my last book. “But he actually told me that six books ago.”

【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The friendship between the scientist Finch and Wilson is also worth mentioning. “On his 88th birthday he wanted to collect ants in the delta so we wandered through an Alabama woodland,” Finch recalled, “We also went to other areas like two boys getting into the woods.” After retiring from teaching in 1996, Wilson founded the E. O. Wilson Biodiversity Foundation to promote worldwide understanding of the importance of biodiversity. “He’s still writing,” said Finch. “He always tells me,” This is my last book. “But he actually told me that six books ago.”(科学家芬奇和威尔逊之间的友谊也值得一提。“在他88岁生日那天,他想在三角洲收集蚂蚁,所以我们在阿拉巴马州的一片林地里闲逛,”芬奇回忆说,“我们还去了其他地方,就像两个男孩走进了树林。”1996年从教学中退休后,威尔逊成立了E. O. Wilson生物多样性基金会,以促进全世界对生物多样性重要性的认识。“他还在写。”芬奇说。他总是对我说:“这是我的最后一本书。”“但他实际上在六本书前就告诉过我了。”)”可推知,威尔逊一直在努力工作,努力学习。故选D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“E. O. Wilson, “the Darwin of the 21st century”, is considered the world’ s leading expert on ants and a pioneer of the theory of biodiversity.( E. O.

I was sitting at my desk when another graduate student in my lab approached me. “Can you help?” he asked. His experiment wasn’t working and he desperately needed help. I was then a fifth year PhD student, and I took pride in being the senior member of the lab, whom everyone looked up to. But that also meant I was the one everyone turned to for help - which ate away hours, days, and sometimes weeks that I could have spent on my own research.
There were many reasons I had a hard time saying no to such pleas(恳求). I was new to the United States for graduate school. I found it difficult to make new friends and discover activities I enjoyed. So 1 spent a huge chunk of my time in the lab, with my lab-mates serving as my primary source of social connection. I feared that if I brushed them off, I’d lose their favor.
But the extra responsibilities came at a cost. I had to work extra hours to catch up with my own work, and I often made sacrifices to my personal life.
It wasn’t until my wife gave birth to our first child that I realized how thin I had stretched myself - and how misguided my priorities were. While she lay in a hospital bed in the early stages of labor, I sat nearby hunched(伏首前倾的)over my laptop finishing up a work report Hours later, after hearing my daughter’s first cry and watching her tiny fingers grab tightly onto mine, it dawned on me: I should have been fully present during my daughter’s birth. I was clearly spending too much time working if my job had intruded(侵入)into one of life’s most precious moments.
From then on 1 decided to spend more time with my family by paring down my work tasks and carefully considering each request for help. I still enjoyed collaborating with others, but I prioritized mutually beneficial tasks or those my manager asked me to take on, rather than accepting everything that came my way.
I noticed many benefits: no longer working overtime, more family time, and improved work performance. I was also pleased to discover that “Sorry, I’d love to help but I have a deadline coming up” is an acceptable response to a request for assistance.
It’s hard to say “no” to those you work with. But I’ve learned that sometimes that’s the best course of action to avoid an excessive workload and lead a freer and happier life.
8. Why did the author find it difficult to refuse the requests of his lab-mates?
A. He was afraid to be left out by them. B. He wanted to earn their respect.
C. He was the senior member of the lab. D. He had once received help from them.
9. What did the author realize after his daughter’s birth?
A. He was guilty for his absence when she was born.
B. His wife had sacrificed a lot for the family.
C. He should have balanced work and life better.
D. He should work harder due to the increased responsibilities.
10. Which of the following is closes in meaning to the underlined phrase “paring down” in paragraph 5?
A. Putting aside. B. Cutting down. C. Getting familiar with. D. Keeping track of.
11. What is the text mainly about?
A. Enjoying family life. B. Giving priority to family.
C. Giving and taking. D. Learning to say “no”.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. D
【解析】

If you were to rate the most walkable cities in the world, what would you look for? Would it be how shaded the sidewalks are? How many benches there are along the way to your destination? Or maybe how close you are to shops or local attractions?
Well, the researchers at the Institute for Transportation and Development Policy (ITDP), located in New York. US, wanted to know which of the world’s cities were the best for pedestrians (行人). So, they did just that.
To determine which cities were the most walkable, they rated cities based on factors such as how close citizens were to car-free areas like public parks, how close citizens lived in relation to schools and hospitals, and how short their journeys were overall.
According to the study, they found that the most walkable cities in the world are London, Paris, Bogota and Hong Kong. Overall, London was at the top of the list, outranking (超过) nearly 1, 000 cities around the world on these key factors.
“In order to provide safety and inviting walking conditions for all city residents, it is essential to shift the balance of space in our cities away from cars, providing more travel options for people,” CEO of ITDP Heather Thompson told the magazine Cities Today. She continued, “We have so much to gain-from cleaner air to better health to stronger local economies and deeper bonds within communities, and we all need that now more than ever. ”
Unfortunately, it seems that very few cities make pedestrians a priority, though.
“Our city streets across the planet are already full of cars. If you really want to see the worst for walkability, it is the really sprawling (杂乱无序伸展的) cities of the US, ” commented Taylor Reich, a research associate at ITDP and the primary author of the guide to making cities more walkable.
So, what can cities do to make their streets friendlier for pedestrians?
“There’s no one secret sauce; there’s no one thing you can do to make a city walkable, ” Reich said. “It’s many decisions that are made at all levels from individual streets all the way up to the city design.”
12. What’s the purpose of the study?
A. To call on cities to make streets more walkable.
B. To find out the most walkable cities around the world.
C. To investigate pedestrians’ satisfaction with city life.
D. To explore factors impacting the walkability of cities.
13. On what basis do researchers measure a city’s walkability?
A. The amount of green space on sidewalks.
B. Traffic and road conditions for pedestrians.
C. The number of public services for pedestrians.
D. Accessibility of certain destinations to pedestrians.
14. What does Heather Thompson suggest to improve walking conditions?
A. Increasing travel choices. B. Developing local economies.
C. Limiting the number of cars. D. Connecting local communities.
15. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Cars are major contributors to reduced walkability.
B. US cities are designed to give priority to pedestrians.
C. It is everyone’s responsibility to make a city walkable.
D. Both small and large scale measures are required to improve walkability.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. D
【解析】

【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段的“In order to provide safety and inviting walking conditions for all city residents, it is essential to shift the balance of space in our cities away from cars, providing more travel options for people(为了为所有城市居民提供安全和吸引人的步行条件,至关重要的是改变我们城市空间的平衡,远离汽车,为人们提供更多的旅行选择)”可知,希瑟·汤普森建议增加旅游的选择来改善步行条件。故选A。

【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议。主要讲述了毕业之后,作者决定要开始锻炼,起初是在健身房的跑步机上行走,后来在朋友强烈的建议下,开始尝试了美式壁球和打网球,并且练习得非常成功。作者由此学到了宝贵的一课:作者可以做他任何想做的事情。只要付诸努力,结果会随之而来。
【21题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意:在朋友的陪伴下,我开始了在跑步机上行走的习惯。A. began开始;B. changed改变;C. quit放弃;D. delayed延迟。根据前文内容“I decided to take the gym seriously”,我决定要在健身房锻炼,之后“开始”在跑步机上行走,此处考查动作顺序。故答案为A。
【22题详解】
考查形容词词义辨析。句意:我对我们在健身房的日常活动很满意。然而,我的朋友却感到厌烦了。A. disappointed失望的;B. familiar熟悉的;C. satisfied满意的;D. careful小心的。提示词however表明前后句意呈转折关系,后文“My friend, however, became bored”作者朋友感觉无聊,所以前文作者情绪是“满意的”,构成转折。故答案为C。
【23题详解】
考查动词短语辨析。句意:一天,他建议我们从事一项户外运动。A. show off炫耀;B. take up开始,从事;C. keep off不接近;D. set out出发。根据空前提示“suggested”可知这只是建议,还没有开始,结合空后的宾语“an outdoor sport”,take up符合题意,表示“开始,参加”一项户外运动。故答案为B。
【24题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意:我是个动作不协调的人,所以我拒绝了他的建议。A. refused拒绝;B. supported支持;C. highlighted强调;D. understood理解。根据空前提示词“uncoordinated”,A选项符合题意,前后构成因果关系。故答案为A。

【26题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意:当我击球时,我让它向各个方向飞去,除了我想要的方向。A. imagined想象;B. intended打算,想要;C. agreed同意;D. found发现。根据空前提示词except,B选项符合题意,“想要”的方向和前文的实际击球的方向形成对比。故答案为B。
【27题详解】
考查形容词词义辨析。句意:尽管如此,不知为什么,我还是努力学习,并在不断练习后变得熟练起来。A. considerate考虑周到的;B. cautious谨慎的;C. mature成熟的;D. skillful熟练的。根据并列连词and和空后内容“after constantly practicing”,选项D符合题意,努力练习,经过持续练习后变“熟练”。故答案为D。
【28题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意:“我们在跑步机上没有得到足够的锻炼。为什么不打网球来锻炼身体呢?”我的朋友建议道。A. exercise锻炼;B. entertainment娱乐;C. movement移动;D. experience经历,经验。根据空后内容“to build up our body”可知,朋友想要打网球来锻炼身体,所以认为在跑步机上并不能得到充分的“锻炼”,所以A选项符合题意。故答案为A。
【29题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意:“网球?我不会打网球!这需要真正的技巧!”A. occupies占用;B. preserves保存;C. improves提升;D. involves涉及,包含。空格的主语that指代前文的“play tennis”,打网球“涉及”到真正的技巧。故答案为D。
【30题详解】

【32题详解】
考查副词词义辨析。句意:我终于学会了如何正确地打网球!A. occasionally偶尔;B. formally正式地;C. eventually终于;D. frequently频繁地。由前文可知,作者起初抗拒朋友打网球的新建议,但几周之后还是开始进行这一运动,并且某天打出了完美的球,所以“最终”作者学会了如何正确打网球,前后形成时间顺序。故答案为C。

Li Hua
【答案】Dear Tom,
Due to my slow progress in English learning, I feel upset. So I’m writing to seek advice on how to improve it.
I find it hard to remember English words so my vocabulary is limited. Besides, English grammar is so difficult that I cannot make out sentence structures. Therefore, many sentences are difficult for me to understand. I have been working hard to improve the situation, for example, reciting more words and expressions, seeing English movies, etc. However, it makes little difference. I am more confused. How can I improve my English? What should I do?
I would be grateful if you could give me some detailed suggestions. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

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。
Brodie and his father lived in a caravan (宿营拖车) ever since his mother died and they lost their house. Now they worked for Miss Martha in the garden.
Brodie’s father had been a famous violin player. Brodie loved to watch how his father made the bow dance and glide (滑动) across the strings. When he turned 12, his father taught him how to play the instrument properly. Brodie was a fast learner and soon he could play the violin almost as well as his dad.
One day, Miss Samson, Brodie’s teacher, asked if anyone could play the violin. A talent scout (星探) was coming to school. He was looking for someone to play in the musical Mr Spy.
Hollie Larson’s hand went up fast. “I can play the violin,” she said. “I play in competitions.” Brodie kept quiet, but his friend Cam said, “Brodie has a violin and he can play it too.”
Brodie slid down in his seat. There was no way he would be good enough to play for an audience. He wasn’t going to make a fool of himself. Hollie Larson was good at everything.
“Bring your instruments tomorrow for a trial run,” the teacher said. “And oh, if you are selected, the pay is good!”
Brodie’s father let him take the violin. “But do take good care of it, Brodie,” he said.
Hollie Larson offered to play first. She was good, really good. Brodie suddenly felt embarrassed. There was no way he could play after her. But Miss Samson’s voice was demanding. “Brodie,” she said. “Your turn!”
Brodie felt his face get hot as he pulled out the violin. But the minute the bow touched the strings, Brodie was transported to a different world. He was back in Martha’s garden listening to his father. The room, was silent as Brodie walked back to his seat. And then came the applause, everyone clapping, except Hollie Larson.
Since the talent scout would come the next morning, Brodie decided to put the violin case on a high shelf in the classroom that night. It was the safest place, he thought. But, he was wrong!
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。
Paragraph 1:
The next morning when he arrived, he found the case had fallen.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Suddenly, Hollie Larson walked toward him, holding out her violin—“Use mine,” she said.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
The next morning when he arrived, he found the case had fallen. Brodie could hardly believe his eyes. The neck of the violin was broken. That was when the talent scout came into the room. “Your teacher tells me there is real talent here,” he said, looking around. “I’m looking forward to hearing you.” Again, it was Hollie Larson who played first. Brodie listened but seemed to hear nothing. He saw that the talent scout smiled and whispered something to Miss Samson. When it was Brodie’s turn, Brodie lowered his head and explained his situation, overwhelmed by a wave of sadness.
Suddenly, Hollie Larson walked toward him, holding out her violin—“Use mine,” she said. Brodie was stunned. Hollie really longed to win, but now she was offering him a chance. He had thought it was she who damaged his violin! He shook his head, but she insisted. “If you can’t play, that’s not a real win.” Casting a grateful glance at her, Brodie took over the violin. While playing, he felt his inner world coming back to peace. The talent scout was on his feet, smiling and clapping. So Brodie won the selection and was to play the violin in Mr Spy. Hollie didn’t win, but she and Brodie became true friends.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Brodie和父亲过着贫穷的生活,但在父亲的影响下,他成为一名优秀的小提琴手。一天,一名星探要选拔一名会拉小提琴的学生,Hollie Larson和Brodie都会拉小提琴,所以他们必须争夺在音乐剧《间谍先生》中演奏的机会,Brodie在前一天演奏得很成功,他专门把小提琴放在高高的架子上,期待着第二天的选拔。但就在第二天,意外发生了。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“第二天早上他到的时候,发现小提琴盒掉了。”可知,第一段可描写在Brodie的小提琴摔坏了以及Brodie在表演之前的崩溃情绪。
②由第二段首句内容“突然,Hollie Larson 向他走来,拿出她的小提琴——‘用我的,’她说。”可知,本段应该写Hollie Larson把自己的小提琴借给了Brodie,后来Brodie被选中并最终和Hollie Larson成为了朋友。
2.续写线索:Brodie的小提琴摔坏——星探到来比赛即将开始——Brodie情绪崩溃不知所措——Hollie Larson借琴给Brodie——Brodie对此感激,开始弹奏——Brodie被选中——Brodie和Hollie Larson成为朋友
