I walked along the sidewalk that borders the west side of Central Park this morning, wondering at its shape: Hexagonal(六边形的) paving stones underneath my feet were bordered by brickwork, with a tidy stone wall running alongside. Just past the wall lay the park itself, where delicate branches of leafless trees reached to the blue sky, and sparrows emerged from trees.
The contrast between the straight-lined, orderly, man-made sidewalk and the complex diversity of nature just beyond its border made me think about the differences between natural creation and man’s creation.
The world holds many examples of circles: the moon, grapes, drops of water and the center of flowers. Triangles(三角形) are readily evident, too. There are kitty cat noses and ears, mountain peaks and river deltas.
But what about the most common shape in the man-made world, the rectangle(矩形)? I searched my brain for natural equals. Though I thought and thought, I came up with only two: teeth and salt crystals. That surprised me. Do we prefer rectangles simply because it’s easier to plan and build with blocks and straight lines? Or does it have something to do with the idea that humans tend to assume life is supposed to be linear? I don’t know.
There are bent lines everywhere. As I look at the beauty of, a tree in winter, with its branches reaching skyward in a seemingly untidy but obviously planned pattern, I can apprehend something of what that means.
Our world isn’t always tidy and predictable in the way that I want it to be. There are twists and turns in my life that I can’t foresee or predict. That doesn’t mean branching off in unexpected directions is bad or wrong. It means that when I find myself in each new place, I need to continue growing and reaching upward.
4. How did the author feel about the sidewalk’s shape?
A. disappointed. B. surprised. C. worried. D. pleased.
5. What is the author’ s attitude to the various shapes mentioned in the text?
A. negative. B. cautious. C. unconcerned. D. objective.
6. Which can explain the underlined word “apprehend” in paragraph 5?
A. create. B. imagine. C. understand. D. arrange.
7. What may the author agree with?
A. People should live in a complex world.
B. Triangles are the most common in nature.
C. Natural creation and man’s creation should be balanced.
D. We should move forward in the face of uncertainties.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了我在公园散步时，通过对于自然形状和人造的形状的的对比引发了关于世界的思考，从而得出结论：尽管生活是无法预测的，而我要做的就是不断成长和向上。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“I walked along the sidewalk that borders the west side of Central Park this morning, wondering at its shape: Hexagonal(六边形的) paving stones underneath my feet were bordered by brickwork, with a tidy stone wall running alongside.”（今天早上我沿着人行横道的边界走在中央公园的西侧，惊讶于它们的形状：我的脚下是六边形的铺路石以砖墙为边界，旁边是一堵整洁的石墙。）可知，我在散步时看见铺路石的形状很惊讶，surprised意为“惊讶的”符合题意。故选B项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The contrast between the straight-lined, orderly, man-made sidewalk and the complex diversity of nature just beyond its border made me think about the differences between natural creation and man’s creation.”（笔直有序的，人造的人行横道与边界外复杂多样的自然之间的对比，让我思考自然创造与人类创造之间的差异。）可知，形状是客观存在于自然界和人造物体中，推断出作者寻找形状差异时思考的态度也是客观的。故选D项。
【6题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第六段“Our world isn’t always tidy and predictable in the way that I want it to be. There are twists and turns in my life that I can’t foresee or predict. That doesn’t mean branching off in unexpected directions is bad or wrong. It means that when I find myself in each new place, I need to continue growing and reaching upward.”（我们的世界并不总是像我希望的那样整洁和可预测。在我的生活中，有我无法预见或预测的波折。这并不意味着向意想不到的方向发展是坏的或错误的，这意味着当我发现自己在一个新的地方，我需要继续成长和向上。）可知，这是我在思考世界时得出的人生的感悟，从而推断出作者理解了世界背后的意义，可推测apprehend意为“理解”，和understand同义。故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“That doesn’t mean branching off in unexpected directions is bad or wrong. It means that when I find myself in each new place, I need to continue growing and reaching upward.”（ 这并不意味着向意想不到的方向发展是坏的或错误的，这意味着当我发现自己在一个新的地方，我需要继续成长和向上。）可知，不管未来的发展方向是对是错，我只关注自我成长和前进，推断出我赞同的观点就是面对未知时，我们应该不断前进。故选D项。
C
I once met a young woman who had dreams of swimming for the U.S Olympic team. She had to get up every morning at 4 a.m. to swim for 3 hours before going to school. She did not party with her friends on Saturday night. She had to study and keep her grades up, just like everyone else.
When I asked her what compelled her with such super-human ambition and sacrifice (牺牲). She simply said, “I do it for myself and the people I love. It’s love that gets me over the hurdles and sacrifices.”
A reason or a purpose is a combination of “wants” and “don’t wants”. When people ask me what my reason for wanting to be rich is, it is a combination of deep emotional “wants” and “don’t wants”.
I will list a few. First the “don’t wants”, for they create the “wants”. I don’t want to work all my life. I don’t want what my parents aspired for, which was job security and a big house. I don’t like being an employee. I hated it that my dad always missed my football games because he was so busy working on his career. I hated it when my dad worked hard all his life and the government took most of what he worked for at his death.
Now the “wants”. I want to be free to travel the world and live in the lifestyle I love. I want to be young when I do this. I want control over my time and my life. I want money to work for me.
Those are my deep-seated, emotional reasons. What are yours? If they are not strong enough, the reality of the road ahead may be greater than your reasons. I have lost money and been set back many times, but it was the deep emotional reasons that kept me standing up and going forward. I wanted to be free by age 40, but it took me until I was 47 with many learning experiences along the way.
I wish I could say it was easy. It wasn’t, but it wasn’t hard either. But without a strong reason or purpose anything in life is hard.
8. The passage is started by __________.
A. giving an example B. explaining the causes
C. pointing out similarities D. describing the differences
9. The underlined word “compelled” in Para. 2 probably means __________.
A. committed B. inspired C. forced D. combined
10. We know from the passage that _________.
A. the “wants” lead to the “don’t wants”
B. the “wants” come from the “don’t wants”
C. the “don’t wants” have little to do with the “wants”
D. the “don’t wants” are more important than the “wants”
11. What can we learn from the underlined sentence in Para. 6?
A. The reality is greater than the deep emotional reasons.
B. With stronger emotional reasons, life must be much easier.
C. With deeper emotional reasons, the road ahead is likely to be harder.
D. In reality, we may meet many more obstacles without deeper emotional reasons.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过讲述一个年轻女子努力实现自己目标的故事，来表达如果没有一个强有力的理由或目标，生活中的任何事情都是困难的。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“I once met a young woman who had dreams of swimming for the U.S Olympic team. She had to get up every morning at 4 a.m. to swim for 3 hours before going to school. She did not party with her friends on Saturday night. She had to study and keep her grades up, just like everyone else.(我曾经遇到过一位年轻女子，她梦想成为美国奥运代表队的一员。她每天早上4点起床，游泳3个小时后才去上学。星期六晚上她没有和朋友聚会。她必须学习，保持好成绩，就像其他人一样)”可知，文章以一个年轻女子的故事开头，所以是举例子开头。故选A项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“She simply said, “I do it for myself and the people I love. It’s love that gets me over the hurdles and sacrifices.”(她只是说，“我这么做是为了我自己和我爱的人。是爱让我克服障碍和牺牲。”)”可知，此处是年轻女子在解释是什么让她一直坚持，所以前面是作者在问她是什么促使她有如此超人的野心和牺牲，所以compelled此处是“促使”之意，与forced意思相近。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“First the “don’t wants”, for they create the “wants”.(首先是“不想要”，因为它们创造了“想要”)”可知，“想要”来自“不想要”。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段中“I have lost money and been set back many times, but it was the deep emotional reasons that kept me standing up and going forward. I wanted to be free by age 40, but it took me until I was 47 with many learning experiences along the way.(我已经失去了钱，多次被挫败，但正是深层次的情感原因让我站起来继续前进。我想在40岁时自由，但我直到47岁才实现，一路上有很多学习经历)”以及第七段“I wish I could say it was easy. It wasn’t, but it wasn’t hard either. But without a strong reason or purpose anything in life is hard.(我希望我能说这很容易。不是，但也不难。但如果没有一个强有力的理由或目标，生活中的任何事情都是困难的)”可知，后文是对划线句子的解释，所以从划线的句子中了解到，在现实中，没有更深层次的情感原因，我们可能会遇到更多的障碍。故选D项。
D
Climate change disproportionately affects the world’s most vulnerable people, particularly poor rural communities that depend on the land for their livelihoods and coastal populations throughout the tropics. We have already seen a chain of tough suffering that results from extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, floods, droughts, wildfires, and more.
For remedies, advocates and politicians have tended to look toward cuts in fossil-fuel use or technologies to capture carbon before it enters the atmosphere—both of which are crucial. But this focus has overshadowed the most powerful and cost-efficient carbon capture technology in the world. Recent research confirms that forests are absolutely essential in reducing climate change, thanks to their ability to absorb and isolate carbon. In fact, natural climate solutions such as conservation and restoration of forests, along with improvements in land management, can help us achieve 37 percent of our climate target of limiting warming to a maximum of two degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels, even though they currently receive only 2.5 percent of public climate financing.
Forests’ power to store carbon dioxide is staggering: one tree can store an average of about 48 pounds in one year. Intact(完整的)forests could take in the CO2 emissions of some entire countries.
For this reason, policymakers and business leaders must create and enforce policies to prevent deforestation, foster, reforestation of degraded land, and promote the sustainable management of standing forests in the fight against climate change. Protecting the world’s forests ensures they can keep performing essential functions such as producing oxygen, filtering water and supporting biodiversity. Not only does the world’s entire population depend on forests to provide clean air, clean water, oxygen and medicines, but 1.6 billion people also rely on them directly for their livelihoods.
Unfortunately, a huge amount of forest continues to be converted into agricultural land to produce a handful of resource-intensive commodities - despite zero-deforestation commitments from companies and governments. So now is the time to increase forest protection and restoration. This action will also address a number of other pressing global issues. For example, in less developed, rural areas - especially in the tropics - community-based forest-management programs can forge pathways out of poverty. In the Peten region of Guatemala, for instance, community-managed forests boasted a near-zero deforestation rate from 2000 through 2013, as compared with 12 percent in nearby protected areas and buffer(缓冲)zones. These communities have built low-impact, sustainable forest-based businesses that have stimulated the economy of the region enough to fund the creation of local schools and health services. Their success is especially noticeable in a location where, outside these community-managed zones, deforestation rates have increased 20-fold.
12. Which of the following statements about natural climate solutions is true according to the passage?
A. They are the only effective strategies available to address the climate change.
B. They pale in comparison with the reduction in fossil-fuel use or technologies.
C They can and should play a more important role in cutting carbon emissions.
D. They manage to limit warming to two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.
13. The word “staggering” (Paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to “_________”.
A. documented B. incredible
C. unsteady D. negligible
14. Which of the following statements is the author most likely to agree with?
A. The policies to prevent deforestation have borne fruit.
B. Developed countries are hit the hardest by climate change.
C. Economic growth contributes a lot to reducing deforestation.
D. Some governments fail to keep their promises to preserve forests.
15. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Keeping forests undamaged can go a long way toward saving the planet.
B. A high-tech climate fix is required to dramatically lessen global warming.
C. Governments should work together with businesses to stop deforestation.
D. Sustainable management of forests is crucial in powering regional development.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲的是气候变化产生了一些极端天气，给世界上最脆弱的人带来很大的痛苦，因此作为补救措施就是要减少碳排放，但这些都不凑效，最近的研究证实，森林在减少气候变化方面是绝对必要的，政府和企业要制定和执行政策，防止毁林，然而他们并没有旅行承诺，导致森林遭到砍伐，作者呼吁现在是加强森林保护和恢复的时候了，这取得了一些成效。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Recent research confirms that forests are absolutely essential in reducing climate change, thanks to their ability to absorb and isolate carbon. In fact, natural climate solutions such as conservation and restoration of forests, along with improvements in land management, can help us achieve 37 percent of our climate target of limiting warming to a maximum of two degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels, even though they currently receive only 2.5percent of public climate financing.(最近的研究证实，由于森林吸收和隔离碳的能力，森林在减少气候变化方面是绝对必要的。事实上，自然气候解决方案，如保护和恢复森林，以及改善土地管理，可以帮助我们实现37%的气侯目标，即将气候变暖限制在比工业化前水平高出2摄氏度的最高水平，尽管它们目前只获得2.5%的公共气侯融资。）”可知自然气侯解决方案可以而且应该在减少碳排放方面发挥更重要的作用，故选C。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“one tree can store an average of about 48 pounds in one year. Intact(完整的)forests could take in the CO2 emissions of some entire countries.（一棵树一年平均能储存48磅。完整的森林可以吸收一些国家的二氧化碳排放量。）”可知森林储存二氧化碳的能力惊人，因此staggering的意思是“难以置信的，惊人的”，结合选项A. documented存档的；B. incredible难以置信的；C. unsteady不稳定的；D. negligible微不足道的，无足轻重的，故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Unfortunately, a huge amount of forest continues to be converted into a agricultural land to produce a handful of resource - intensive commodities - despite zero-deforestation commitments from companies and governments. So now is the time to increase forest protection and restoration.（不幸的是，尽管公司和政府承诺不砍伐森林，但仍有大量的森林继续被转换为农业用地，以生产少数资源密集型商品。因此，现在是加强森林保护和恢复的时候了。）”可推断出作者认为一些政府未能兑现保护森林的承诺，故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中的“Recent research confirms that forests are absolutely essential in reducing climate change, thanks to their ability to absorb and isolate carbon. (最近的研究证实，由于森林吸收和隔离碳的能力，森林在减少气候变化方面是绝对必要的。）”和最后一段的“So now is the time to increase forest protection and restoration.（因此，现在是加强森林保护和恢复的时候了。）以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了森林在减少气候变化方面是绝对必要的，政府和企业要制定和执行政策，防止毁林，保持森林不受破坏可以大大拯救地球。故选A。
第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，共10分)
Procrastination is the act of putting off tasks until the last minute, or past their deadline.
For many students, getting a task that is due in two months is a great thing. They have two months to slowly work on the task, making necessary improvements all along the way. ____16____ Some students plan to get to work on that task, but they never get around to it. Then, the due date rolls around and those students have to work all night to meet the deadline the next morning.
____17____ Many jobs are lost because a worker did not get to the work in time. Deadlines are missed because a business plan wasn’t given enough consideration early on. These things cost businesses large amounts of money in lost productivity.
What is at the root of all of this procrastination? Some might say that it is laziness, but it is really just a problem with mindset (心态). ____18____
It is difficult to stop this terrible habit. ____19____ By doing that, you would be changing the way your mind processes work. As a hypnotherapist (催眠师), I have used hypnosis to stop people from smoking and keep them away from stress. I find that it is an effective solution for procrastination as well.
____20____ They think that it is just like the dull shows on television. That’s not what hypnosis is about, though. Hypnosis is really about changing a person’s basic senses so that their thinking is changed. This sounds like a perfect way to deal with procrastination, doesn’t it?
A. That is how it is supposed to be done.
B. For many people, it has become a habit.
C. It takes a long time to truly change your ways.
D. Procrastination is a problem that usually affects students.
E. Procrastination can be found in the working world as well.
F. If it does, you probably have a problem with procrastination.
G. Many people don’t even consider hypnosis as a treatment option.
【答案】16. A 17. E 18. B 19. C 20. G
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了拖延在工作和生活中会造成的不好的后果；拖延并不是因为懒惰，它是心态的问题。
【16题详解】
根据上一句“They have two months to slowly work on the task, making necessary improvements all along the way.(他们有两个月的时间慢慢完成这项任务，并在整个过程中做出必要的改进）”可知，此处说的是完成任务的方法。所以A项：That is how it is supposed to be done.(这就是我们应该做的)符合语境。故选A。
【17题详解】
根据下一句“Many jobs are lost because a worker did not get to the work in time. Deadlines are missed because a business plan wasn’t given enough consideration early on. These things cost businesses large amounts of money in lost productivity.(由于工人没有及时上班，许多工作岗位都丢了。由于商业计划在早期没有得到足够的考虑，所以错过了截止日期。这些事情会使企业损失大量的资金，导致生产力损失）”可知此处说的是现实工作中拖延造成的不好的后果。所以E项：Procrastination can be found in the working world as well.(拖延也可以在工作世界中找到）符合语境。故选E。
【18题详解】
根据下一句“It is difficult to stop this terrible habit.(很难阻止这种可怕的习惯)”可知此处说的是一种不好的习惯，那么上文应该提到这种不好的习惯。所以B项：For many people, it has become a habit. (对许多人来说，它已经成为一种习惯)符合语境。故选B。
【19题详解】
根据下一句“By doing that, you would be changing the way your mind processes work.(通过这样做，你将改变你的思维过程的工作方式)”可知此处说的是要改变这种习惯。所以C项：It takes a long time to truly change your ways.(真正改变你的方式需要很长时间)符合语境。故选C。
【20题详解】
根据下一句“They think that it is just like the dull shows on television. That's not what hypnosis is about, though.(他们认为这就像电视上枯燥无味的节目。不过，这不是催眠的目的)可知，此处说的是有些人认为催眠不好。所以G项：Many people don't even consider hypnosis as a treatment option.(许多人甚至不认为催眠是一种治疗方法)符合语境。故选G。

第一节 完形填空(共20小题，每小题1.5分，共30分)
I’ve had the good fortune of spending a lot of time working in London over the years. I’m a typical American, ____21____ to making eye contact and smiling when speaking to others. But until I spent time abroad, I was never quite ____22____ of what my facial expressions could convey.
In the UK, I ____23____ not everyone made as much eye contact on the street as I did. And it was ____24____ to hold eye contact during a business meeting. My ____25____ smile could be considered as flirtatious (轻浮的). But my British colleagues ____26____: I was American. This forward attitude was not ____27____, but it was just my culture. ____28____, being expressively cheerful among those who keep ____29____ closer to their vest (背心 ) was accepted in the UK.
______30______, in other countries a cultural misunderstanding of smiling can have serious results. While it’s unlikely that a mistimed smile will ______31______ you a contract (合同),______32______ interactions can make it much more difficult to build effective business relationships.

【45题详解】

I followed my schedule strictly and managed to get rid playing games. After that I became active in studying and turn out to be one of the top students in our school.
【答案】1.for→to
2.played后的with去掉
3.interesting→interest
4.worrying→worried
5.play→playing
6.advices→advice
7.them→it
8.were→was
9.rid后加of
10.turn→turned
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者在老师的帮助下改掉坏习惯，变成好学生的事。
【详解】1. 考查固定搭配。句意：三年前，我沉迷于电脑游戏。表示“沉迷于某事”为固定短语be addicted to。故将for改为to。
2. 考查固定搭配。句意：我周末从早到晚都在玩电脑游戏。表示“玩游戏”为play games，不加介词with。故将played后的with去掉。
3. 考查固定搭配。句意：我对学习失去了兴趣，经常不去上学。lose interest in 为固定搭配，意为“对……失去兴趣”，应用名词作lost的宾语。故将interesting改为interest。
4. 考查形容词。句意：我的父母非常担心我。表示“对……很担心”为固定短语be/get worried about sb.，也可根据此处修饰的主体是“我的父母”，指人，所以用-ed形容词。故将 worrying 改为worried。
5. 考查固定搭配。句意：父母劝说我停止玩游戏，但是我没有放弃坏习惯。quit doing sth.为固定搭配，意为“放弃/停止做某事”，quit后应使用名词或者动名词作宾语。故将play改为 playing。
6. 考查名词。句意：之后我的英语老师给了我一些如何改掉坏习惯的建议。advice为不可数名词，因此不能在词尾加s。故将advices改为advice。
7. 考查代词。句意：我在一张纸上列出了玩电脑游戏的坏处，将它放到床上并尽力记住它们。此处是指将那张纸放到了床上，a piece of paper为单数，因此使用代词it来指代。故将 them改为it。
8. 考查主谓一致。句意：这个清单旁边是我的高效时间表。分析可知，，beside the list作为位置状语位于句首时，句子要用完全倒装，因此主语在谓语动词之后。此句的主语my effective schedule为单数，且时态为一般过去时，因此be动词使用三单形式was。故将were改为was。
9. 考查固定搭配。句意：我严格按照计划表来执行，成功地戒掉了游戏。get rid of为固定搭配，意为“除掉；去掉”。故在rid后加of。
10. 考查时态。句意：在那以后，我在学习上变得积极了，成为了学校的尖子生之一。全文都在回忆过去的故事，时态为一般过去时，因此此处谓语动词turn应使用过去式。故将 turn改为turned。
