John, a very thin boy, loved football with all his heart when he was very young. Practice after practice, he eagerly gave everything he had. But being half the size of the other boys, he could only sit on the bench and hardly ever played in games. Even though the son was always on the bench, his father was always standing with cheers and encouraging him.
When John went to college, he decided to try out for the football team as a “walk­on”. Everyone was sure he could never make_the_cut,_but he did. The coach thought he could provide the other members with the spirit they needed.
The news that he had survived the selection excited him so much that he rushed to the nearest phone and called his father. His father shared his excitement and was sent season tickets for all the college games.
It was the end of the last football season. One day John received a telegram and asked one week off. Nobody knew what happened except the coach. The coach said, “Don't plan to come back to the game on Saturday.”
Saturday arrived, and the game was not going well. When the team was ten points behind, John came back. “Coach, please let me play. I've just got to play today，” said John. The coach pretended not to hear him. But John persisted, and finally feeling sorry for the kid, the coach gave in.
Before long, everyone could not believe their eyes. John was doing everything to fight. The opponent could not stop him. He ran, he passed and blocked like a star. And at last his team won the game.
After the game, John looked at the coach, with tears in his eyes, and said，“Well, you knew my dad died, but did you know that my dad was blind？” John swallowed hard and forced a smile, “Dad came to all my games, but today was the first time he could see me play, and I wanted to show him that I could do it.”
24．Why did John hardly have any chance to play in games?
A．Because he had no time to practice.
B．Because he was too young to play games.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a technology that lets machines do things that require “thinking”. It is a hard term to define (下定义) because AI isn't actually one thing. Rather, it's a group of technologies that help machines acquire, understand and use information to perform tasks. The range of technologies is one of the reasons people use so many different terms when mentioning AI.
Recent developments of AI have received a lot of media attention. Although some have welcomed the technology because of things that AI makes possible, the attention has also produced a lot of fear and caution. In particular, many are concerned about the effects AI could have on people's jobs.
Unfortunately, the media excitement is often a distraction (令人分心的事物) that causes people to miss an important point. Since AI isn't just one thing, we aren't waiting for it to be invented. Rather, the technology is experiencing a long development process. AI isn't coming. It's already here. We aren't living in a world controlled by computers­yet. But we are living in a world that relies more and more on AI for better efficiency.
Newspapers, design companies and film studios are all making use of the technology. Often the technology is used to do the heavy lifting of repetitive tasks so that professionals can work more productively. Admittedly, the tasks AI does are often the things done by low or entry­level employees. But that hasn't necessarily spelled the end for human workers.
In recent years, for example, AI­driven translation has dramatically increased the amount of material a human translator can process each day. But the easy availability of translation has also led to an increased need for translators. As a result, the industry and its human translators often struggle to keep up with demand.
There is no doubt that AI is changing how we live and work in very complex ways. That makes AI an important trend to watch, but not to panic about yet.
28．What can we learn about AI?
A．Various names can be used to refer to it.
B．Media are concerned about its efficiency.
C．Machines can't do anything without AI.
D．Media mostly hold a negative view on it.
29．How does the author feel about the media excitement?
A．Approving. B．Ambiguous.
C．Uncaring D．Misleading.
30．Why does the author mention AI­driven translation?
A．To prove that AI will replace humans in the end.
B．To stress that AI is far better than human translation.
C．To claim that AI pushes human to be better than before.
D．To state that AI has developed dramatically in recent years.
31．What is the most reasonable structure for the passage?


I＝introduction　P＝point　Sp＝subpoint　C＝conclusion
D
Golden eagle talons (爪) may have been of symbolic value to Neanderthals (尼安德特人) who lived 130 000 years ago, according to a new study.
Researchers found that the prehistoric humans were hunting eagles for their talons and feathers rather than for their meat, like they did other birds, such as crows.
Eagle bones and talons have been found across dozens of sites in central and western Europe occupied by both Neanderthals and humans. Researchers looked at how frequently eagle bones were found in prehistoric human sites to see if they were more common among Neanderthal societies. The team not only found golden eagle remains at 26 sites, but that they had cut marks along the wing bones suggesting that the feathers were carefully calculated. Three eagle talons with small matching cuts were found in a Neanderthal site, suggesting they were threaded on a necklace.
The findings suggest that the bones were used to decorate necklaces, making it more believable that Neanderthals led much more advanced lives than originally thought. Before the Neanderthals disappeared, they co­existed with humans who came from Europe around forty thousand years ago. It was assumed that Neanderthals finally disappeared because humans were smarter but according to the new research by The Gibraltar National Museum, this wasn't the case.
To see if this was just because golden eagles were more common at the time, researchers compared the marked bones with those unmarked ones found in caves. The team said that golden eagle talons stood out as being “more likely” to show marks from human involvement, indicating that they were preferred.
“If you're doing things with feathers and claws, it's going beyond purely functional and there's something symbolic there，” said Clive Finlayson at The Gibraltar National Museum. “Everywhere there are historic examples of people using eagles, they were treated as a symbolic species，” David Frayer of the University of Kansas told the New Scientist. “Neanderthals weren't treating eagles as meat, like they did crows but they were choosing them for talons and feathers. I think that's a strong piece of evidence that Neanderthals had the same kinds of feelings about eagles as more recent people.”
32．Why did Neanderthals hunt golden eagles?
A．To eat their meat.
B．To show their religious belief.
C．To cut marks to record things.
D．To make decorations on their necklace.
33．What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A．The Neanderthals. B．The research team.
C．The remains. D．The golden eagles.
34．What can we know about Neanderthals from the text?
A．Neanderthals' civilization developed higher than people once assumed.
B．Neanderthals didn't eat crows because of their symbolic value.
C．Neanderthals' sites were occupied by humans from Europe.
D．Neanderthals preferred golden eagle's meat.
35．What's the main idea of the text?
A．Golden eagles accelerated the extinction of Neanderthals.
B．Neanderthals used golden eagles talons for decoration.
C．Golden eagles had a symbolic meaning to Neanderthals.
D．Neanderthals made a difference in human development.
参考答案：
A
【语篇解读】　这是一篇应用文。文章分别介绍了四个博物馆的具体情况。
21．答案与解析：B　细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句Most of the exhibit items are open to the public for free, only charging for major temporary (临时的) exhibitions.(大部分展品都是免费向公众开放的，只对大型临时展览会收费。)可知，英国伦敦Tate Modern美术馆之所以吸引人，部分原因在于它的大部分展览都是免费的。故选B。
22．答案与解析：C　细节理解题。根据第二段第一句It is the world's largest and most visited art museum and a historical landmark of Paris.(它是世界上最大、参观人数最多的艺术博物馆，也是巴黎的历史性地标。)可知The Louvre是世界上参观人数最多的艺术博物馆。故选C。
23．答案与解析：C　细节理解题。根据第三段中的Covering a time span from the Yuanmou Man of 1.7 million years ago to the Qing Dynasty (1644—1911), the museum houses around 1.05 million items — many cannot be found in museums elsewhere.[从170万年前的元谋人到清朝(1644—1911)，中国国家博物馆收藏了约105万件文物——许多在其他地方的博物馆都找不到的。]可知National Museum of China 展出元谋人的独特物品。故选C。
B

【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文，主要叙述了尽管约翰只是一名板凳球员，但父亲一直在鼓励着他。上大学之后，约翰积极努力争取成了一名临时球员，这让每个人都很吃惊。足球赛季末，他收到了家里的电报，父亲去世了。但是比赛当天约翰返回了球场，最终他帮助球队力挽狂澜，获得了胜利，同时向去世的父亲证明自己能行。
24．答案与解析：D　细节理解题。由第一段中的But being half the size of the other boys, he could only sit on the bench and hardly ever played in games.可知，由于他的体形几乎是其他男孩的一半大小，所以他只能成为板凳球员，很少参加比赛，所以约翰几乎没有机会参加比赛的原因是他的身体条件不好。故D选项正确。
25．答案与解析：B　词义猜测题。由第二段中的“When John went to college, he decided to try out for the football team as a‘walk­on’”．可知，当约翰上大学时，他决定参加足球队的选拔赛，成为一名临时球员。所以判断出第二段中带下划线的短语“make the cut”可替换为be allowed to join the team。故B选项正确。
26．答案与解析：C　推理判断题。由最后一段中的“Well, you knew my dad died, but did you know that my dad was blind？”．..“Dad came to all my games, but today was the first time he could see me play...”可知，约翰的父亲去世了，他的父亲是个盲人，生前参加了他所有的比赛，今天是他第一次“看到”约翰上场踢足球赛，他想让父亲知道他能行。故C选项正确。
27．答案与解析：D　主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文讲述了尽管约翰受到身体条件的限制，只是一名板凳球员，但是父亲一直在鼓励着他，上大学之后，他努力争取成了一名临时球员。足球赛季末，家里的电报告诉他父亲去世了。但是比赛当天约翰求教练能给予他上场的机会，教练最终同意了。他帮助球队力挽狂澜，获得了胜利，同时向死去的父亲证明自己能行，所以这个故事告诉我们“有志者，事竟成”的道理，同时也是短文的主旨大意。故D选项正确。
C
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人工智能对人们生活产生的影响及其可能会带来的变化。
28．答案与解析：A　细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句中的“people use so many different terms when mentioning AI”可知，AI有很多种名字。故选A。
29．答案与解析：D　推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Unfortunately, the media excitement is often a distraction (令人分心的事物) that causes people to miss an important point.”可知，作者认为媒体的观点有误导作用。故选D。
30．答案与解析：C　推理判断题。通读倒数第二段内容可知，人工智能翻译使人们对人工翻译的要求有所提升，因此人工翻译会更努力地满足人们的新需求。由此可推知，作者列举人工智能翻译的例子是为了说明人工智能会推动人类进步。故选C。
31．答案与解析：D　篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段引出了文章主题，第二、三段陈述了媒体对于AI的看法，因此这两段应为并列关系，第四、五段讲述媒体对AI误解的澄清，应视为第三段的延伸，第六段得出结论，总结全文。故D项为本文的结构。故选D。
D
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了尼安德特人使用金鹰的爪子和羽毛来装饰项链，他们过着比人们想象的更为先进的生活。

33．答案与解析：A　词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“cut marks along the wing bones”及语境可知，是尼安德特人在金鹰的翅膀上刻上了记号。由此可推知，they指代的是尼安德特人。故选A。
34．答案与解析：A　细节理解题。根据第四段第一句中的“Neanderthals led much more advanced lives than originally thought”可知，尼安德特人过着比人们想象的更为先进的生活。故选A。

57．答案与解析：a　考查冠词。a symbol of success意为“一个成功的象征”，空处表示泛指。
58．答案与解析：have turned　考查时态。由语境可知，此处表示有些百万富翁已经放弃了他们的百万财富，故用现在完成时。
59．答案与解析：who/that　考查定语从句的关系词。分析句子结构可知，4.________ had everything while many people had nothing为定语从句，修饰前面的a person，空处指人，且在从句中作主语，故填who/that。
60．答案与解析：charities　考查名词的数。在这里charity意为“慈善机构”，是可数名词，应该用复数形式。
61．答案与解析：with　考查介词。空处表示“带有”，故填with。
62．答案与解析：simply　考查副词。空处修饰动词live，故填副词。
63．答案与解析：asked　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处所在的句子为When引导的时间状语从句的省略，而ask与he之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，故填asked。
64．答案与解析：happier　由空前的much可知，此处应填happy的比较级形式，表示比以前“更开心”。
65．答案与解析：but　考查连词。由语境可知，此处考查“not...but...”结构，表示“不是……，而是……”，故填but。

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。
Eric was working in a selling business. He had been on the road visiting people for more than a month without going home. He couldn't wait to get back to see his wife and children. It was coming up on Mother's Day, so he usually tried to make it “back home”， but this year he was just too busy and too tired. When he was driving in a small town, he saw a flower shop. He said to himself, “I know what I will do. I'll send my mother some roses.”
He stopped and went into the flower shop and saw a boy talking to a girl in it. “How many roses can I get for six dollars, Miss？” the boy asked. The girl was trying to explain that roses were expensive. Maybe the boy would be happy with something else.
“No, I have to have roses，” he said. “My mom was badly sick last year and I didn't get to spend much time with her. I want to get something special. It has to be red roses, because they are her favorite.” He was stubborn.
The girl in the shop looked up at Eric and was just shaking her head. Something inside of Eric was touched by the boy's voice. He wanted to get those roses so badly. Eric had been blessed (幸运的) in his business, so he looked at the girl and whispered to her that he would pay for the boy's roses.
The girl looked at the boy and said, “OK, I will give you a dozen red roses for your dollars.” The boy almost jumped into the air. He took the flowers and ran out of the store. It was worth more than thirty­five dollars just to see that kind of excitement.
Eric ordered his own flowers and asked the girl to have them delivered to his mother. After that, with a relief he drove away. Not long after his driving, he saw the boy walking to a graveyard (墓地)．

参考范文：
Eric stopped his car and followed the boy. The boy went up to a small grave stone, and knelt down. He carefully put the flowers before it and began to sob. “Dear Mom, I love you. But how I regret that I didn't say it when you were with me. I knew you loved roses, but why didn't I send the flowers to you when I could still see you and talk with you? Now, you have gone to another world. How I regret that I didn't tell you I love you so much！”
Eric went into his car in tears. His mother's home wasn't far from here, but he hadn't seen her for a long time. He didn't have a talk with her for a long time and never said how much he loved her. He turned the car and drove towards the direction to the flower shop quickly. He asked the girl to give back the flowers because he wanted to send them personally to his mom.
