Volunteering Is Fun
One afternoon I was sitting at home feeling so bored. Instead of feeling sorry for myself, I wanted to meet people and have new experiences so I decided to start volunteering. I searched on my computer and found a website where I could volunteer on a farm in France.
My time working on a farm was a new experience for me. It was basically a free holiday as food and accommodation were provided. However, it was not my typical holiday as I had to look after fifteen horses and sleep at the top of a tower in a castle! I was an awful farmer but it did not matter because I made some great friends. However, you do not need to go abroad to volunteer. I have had plenty of adventures at home as volunteering can become a hobby. For example, I love singing so I had a good laugh waving my arms in an attempt to conduct my local choir. I did slowly improve and it felt great to conduct the choir in a concert. At university, I organized a concert for charity with my friends. It was really fun finding bands and raising money for a cause we believe in.
It is true that you feel good volunteering but there are also other advantages. I once volunteered as a server at a charity sports event where the organizers gave me cupcakes to thank me for my services. I also volunteered in a charity shop so I found loads of nice cheap clothes to update my wardrobe(衣柜).
While this is all fun, my favorite aspect of volunteering is creating and sharing stories. My terrible attempts at farming have given me hilarious stories to tell! Talking to volunteers from different countries and backgrounds has also helped me learn more about the world. I feel thankful to have had so much fun with many nice people thanks to volunteering.
4. Why did the author want to be volunteer?
A. He wanted to taste new life and make friends.
B. He felt ashamed of himself.
C. He wanted to be a farmer.
D. He wanted to go abroad.
5. The underlined word“hilarious”in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to“_____”.
A. sad B. critical C. awful D. funny
6. What volunteering work did the author do?
A. Taking care of sheep. B. Helping in an Italian farm.
C. Helping in a charity shop. D. Conducting a choir in a sports event.
7. How does the author feel according to the last paragraph?
A. Curious. B. Anxious. C. Grateful. D. Cautious
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章,讲述了作者从事志愿工作的一些体验以及志愿活动给作者带来的好处。

【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“I had to look after fifteen horses and sleep at the top of a tower in a castle!”这句可知A选项以偏概全;根据第一段最后一句“where I could volunteer on a farm in France.”可知B选项错误;根据第二段“it felt great to conduct the choir in a concert.”可知C选项错误,根据倒数第二段“I also volunteered in a charity shop so I found loads of nice cheap clothes to update my wardrobe(衣柜).”可知作者曾经在慈善商店帮过忙,故答案为C。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“I feel thankful to have had so much fun with many nice people thanks to volunteering.”可知作者非常感激,因为志愿工作让他有了很多朋友,故答案为C。

The first step in writing any poem is coming up with something to write about. To do that, you have to choose deep or attractive material. Anything can be the topic for great poems have been written about such topics as a gas station or pieces of broken glass on the beach.
It’s easiest to write a good poem about something you know well that you have experienced firsthand, or that you have nearby so that you can observe it carefully. This is what makes the poem deep and interesting, what will be the hidden details or qualities you discover or the things that reminds you of the unique view.
In his book Poetry in the Making, the poet Ted Hughes talks about how to write a poem about an animal. “The key,” he says, “is to concentrate hard enough on the animal, to choose the words that best catch the animal you have in your mind.” You can use this approach with any poems.
In the beginning, you don’t have to worry about the “style” or writing in a “poetic” way that means being filled with rhythm and beauty. In fact, if you start to think about being poetic, it can puzzle you from what you’re actually writing about and hurt your poem. Have you ever tried to have a conversation with someone who was trying to impress you? Then you know how boring this can be. The person is really thinking about himself or herself, not about the conversation. Similarly, if you are worrying about what impression your poem will make, then that takes your attention away from the topic of your poem.
In a word, if the poem is about you or your life, try to take the angle of a careful reporter when you write it down. You should focus on accurately communicating an aspect of your experience instead of focusing on what impression you are making when you do it.
8. What will be an easy topic for writing a good poem?
A. Something beautiful. B. Something you know well.
C. Something interesting. D. Something others have experienced before.
9. What can we infer about Ted Hughes’s opinion on writing a poem?
A. It is necessary to select the words.
B. It is important to choose a good topic.
C. It is necessary to focus on the style of poems.
D. It is difficult to write a poem about animals.
10. In which section of a newspaper can we read the text?
A. Food. B. Technology. C. Advertisement. D. Literature.
11. What’s the best title for the text?
A. A poem is about one’s experience B. How to record your life by poems
C. How to write a poem D. A poem is about life
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章说明了如何写一首好的诗歌的方法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“It’s easiest to write a good poem about something you know well, that you have experienced first-hand, or that you have nearby so that you can observe it carefully.(写一首好诗最简单的方法就是描述你熟悉的,你亲身经历过的,或者你在附近能仔细观察到的事物)”可知,你所熟知的东西是一首好诗容易写的话题。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段中诗人Ted Hughes 所说的话“The key is to concentrate hard enough on the animal, to choose the words that best catch the animal you have in your mind. (关键是要集中注意力在动物身上,选择最能抓住你脑海中动物的词语)” 可知,关于写诗,Ted Hughes认为选择词语是必要的。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段提到的“The first step in writing any poem is coming up with something to write about.(写诗的第一步是想出写什么主题文章是关于如何写一首好的诗歌)”等内容可知,文章是关于如何写一首好诗。诗歌是属于文学的内容,应该是在报纸的文学版面看到这篇文章。故选D。
11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,文章第一段提到“The first step in writing any poem is coming up with something to write about.(写诗的第一步是想出写什么主题)”;第二段提出写一首好诗最简单的方法就是描述你熟悉的,你亲身经历过的,或者你能仔细观察到的事物;第四段提到“In the beginning, you don’t have to worry about the “style” or writing in a “poetic” way(在一开始,你不必担心“风格”或以“诗意”的方式写作)”;第五段提到“You should focus on accurately communicating an aspect of your experience(你应该专注于准确地传达你的经历的一个方面)”。由此可知,文章是关于如何写一首好诗。文章的标题应是“How to write a poem(如何写一首诗)”。故选C。

The biggest challenge faced by travelers, especially those who like to have a backpacking trip is how to ensure a steady supply of clean clothes. Now, thanks to a great invention called Scrubba Wash Pack, that worry may be a thing of the past.
The portable washing machine was invented by Ash Newland in 2010, while he was planning to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. Struck by the limited packing space, he got inspiration from traditional washboards to create a bag that could be used to clean clothes. Then he quitted his career as a lawyer and focused on perfecting the bag’s design. By 2012, the bag was ready for the public. It weighed only 180 grams and required very little storage space, making it perfect for anyone wishing to travel light.
Not surprisingly, the bag which was worth 55 dollars was an instant hit with travelers, university students and even passengers. However, Newland was not satisfied. He still saw a disadvantage with his invention — dirty clothes had to be carried around in a separate bag! The recently introduced Scrubba Wash Pack solves that problem.
In order to make the pack active, dirty clothes are placed inside the bag along with two or three liters of water. The bag is then shut tightly to ensure all air is squeezed out and the colors are massaged for a few minutes. After a quick wash, they are clean and ready to be dried. According to Newland, the pack can clean anything from jeans to smelly socks! What’s even more amazing is that with a capacity to hold 13 liters of water, it can be used to wash more clothes at a time.
The best part is that the 99-dollar pack that will be available for sale later this year, only weighs 300 grams and is completely foldable, making it easy to store when it’s not in use. With the Scrubba Wash Pack, wandering through foreign cities searching for a washing shop, or paying for washing machines may soon be a thing of the past.
12. What led Ash Newland to create the Scrubba Wash Pack?
A. His job requirement. B. A traditional washboard.
C. His interest in invention. D. His personal experience.
13. Why wasn’t Ash Newland satisfied with his former invention?
A. Clothes couldn’t be washed well.
B. The invention was not so convenient.
C. The bag couldn’t contain enough water.
D. The cost of the invention was very high.
14. It can be inferred that the improved Scrubba Wash Pack ________.
A. turns to be much environmentally friendly
B. will replace the traditional washing machines
C. will be widely used by more travelers in the future
D. can encourage more people to travel a long distance
15. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. Introducing a great new invention.
B. Explaining the development of backpack.
C. Listing some common problems for travelers.
D. Comparing two kinds of washing machines.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Ash Newland的个人经历激发他发明了一种帮助旅行者洗衣服的Scrunba WashPack,这种包携带方便,经济实用,旅行者洗衣服不方便的问题即将成为过去。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“The portable washing machine was invented by Ash Newland in 2010, while he was planning to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. Struck by the limited packing space, he got inspiration from traditional washboards to create a bag that could be used to clean clothes. (这种便携式洗衣机是由Ash Newland在2010年发明的,当时他正在计划攀登乞力马扎罗山。由于包装空间有限,他从传统的洗衣板中得到灵感,创造了一个可以用来清洗衣服的袋子)”可知,Ash Newland的个人经历使他有了创造Scrunba Wash Pack的想法。故选D项。
13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“However, Newland was not satisfied. He still saw a disadvantage with his invention — dirty clothes had to be carried around in a separate bag! (然而,Newland并不满意。他仍然看到了他的发明的缺点——脏衣服必须放在一个单独的袋子里随身携带!)”可知,他认为他先前的发明不太方便,故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“With the Scrubba Wash Pack, wandering through foreign cities searching for a washing shop, or paying for washing machines may soon be a thing of the past! (带着Scrubba洗衣袋,在外国城市里闲逛,寻找洗衣店,或者购买洗衣机,可能很快就会成为过去!)”可推知Scrubba Wash Pack将在未来被更多的旅行者广泛使用,故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。文章介绍了Ash Newland发明了一种帮助旅行者洗衣服的Scrunba WashPack,这种洗衣包的改进过程,使用方法,特点等。根据全文内容可知,文章主要是在介绍一种伟大的新发明。故选A项。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文,介绍了明长城的兴衰历史。
【41题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:直到1368年明朝兴起,我们今天所了解中国长城才建成。分析句子成分可知,所设空处作谓语,所给词“build(建造)”与主语 “the Great Wall of China”之间为被动关系,所以应用被动语态,根据时间状语“until the rise of the Ming Dynasty in 1368”可知,应用一般过去时态,综上,故填was built。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意:明长城的长度和复杂程度超过了以前的所有长城。分析句子成分可知,所设空处与其后的“and complexity”并列,在句中作主语,所以应用名词,故填length。
【43题详解】
考查时态。句意:明朝还在一些地方增加了双层和三重城墙,以加强以前建造的建筑,迷惑攻击者。分析句子结构可知,所设空处作谓语,根据上下文语境可知,应用一般过去时态,故填added。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:明朝还在一些地方增加了双层和三重城墙,以加强以前建造的建筑,迷惑攻击者。根据句意可知,此处作目的状语,应用不定式形式,故填to strengthen。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:事实上,在很多地方,墙的顶部足够宽,可以让人在上面开车,达到6.7米。分析句子成分可知,“___5___ (reach) about 6.7 meters”作伴随状语,所给词“reach(达到)”与主语the wall之间为主动关系,所以应用现在分词形式,故填reaching。
【46题详解】
考查连词。句意:尽管这堵墙很长,但从外太空并不像古老的神话所说的能看见它。分析句子结构可知,“ ___6___ the old myth says”为方式状语从句,根据句意,该处可译为“正如,像……一样”,故填as。
【47题详解】
考查比较等级。句意:如果这是真的,那么大型高速公路也可能看见了,有许多比长城大得多呢。分析句子成分,所设空处作表语,应用形容词,再根据其后的比较对象“than the Great Wall”可知,此处应用比较级形式,故填larger。
【48题详解】
考查冠词。句意:在明朝时期,长城的建造是一项持续而成功的努力,直到17世纪,它再也不能打败满族的行动。根据句意可知,“ongoing and successful effort(持续而成功的努力)”为泛指,ongoing发音以元音音素开头,所以应用不定冠词an,故填an。
【49题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:这一更迭导致了明朝的垮台和清朝的崛起,实际上阻止了长城长达2000多年的发展。分析句子成分可知,“___9___ brought down the Ming Dynasty and gave rise to the Qing Dynasty”为非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词“This takeover”,该先行词,指物,在定语从句中作主语,需用关系代词which引导。故填which。
【50题详解】
考查副词。句意:这一更迭导致了明朝的垮台和清朝的崛起,实际上阻止了长城长达2000多年的发展。分析句子成分可知,所设空处作状语,修饰其谓语部分“stopped the Great Wall’s development”,所以应用副词,故填effectively。
第四部分:写作(共两节,满分35分)
第一节 短文改错(共10小题,每小题1分,满分10分)

Some of my classmates and I went hiking on yesterday. Early in the morning, we gathered at our school gate and then head for West Lake, where was 10 kilometers away. On arriving, we first visited some famous places of interests there, which left a deep impression on us. Then we went boating, enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lake. Final, we tasted some local special snacks. Before we knew it, it was time for us go home. Although the hike was very tired, we all had a good time. They not only got relaxed by admiring the beauty of nature and also had our horizons broadened.
【答案】1. 删除on
2. head→headed
3. where→which
4. interests→interest
5. enjoy→enjoying
6. Final→Finally
7. go前面加to
8. tired→tiring
9. They→We
10. and→but
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。叙述了作者与同学去西湖远足的一天。
【详解】1.考查介词。句意:昨天我和一些同学去远足了。yesterday前不加介词,故将on删除。
2.考查时态。句意:一大早,我们聚集在学校门口,然后前往10公里外的西湖。根据前一句中的yesterday及本句中的“we gathered at our school gate”可知,本句时态为一般过去时。故将head改为headed。
3.考查定语从句关系词。句意:一大早,我们聚集在学校门口,然后前往10公里外的西湖。本句中“where was 10 kilometers away”是非限制性定语从句,先行词是West Lake,引导词指代West Lake并在定语从句中作主语,应该用which。故将where改为which。
4.考查名词短语。句意:到达后,我们首先参观了那里的一些名胜古迹,给我们留下了深刻的印象。“名胜古迹”的名词短语为“place of interest”,其复数为“places of interest”,通过改变place的复数形式来表现。故将interests改为interest。
5.考查现在分词。句意:然后我们去划船,欣赏美丽的湖景。动词enjoy和谓语动词went boating之间没有连词,所以用非谓语动词形式。动词enjoy与其逻辑主语we之间构成主动关系,因此用现在分词形式。故将enjoy改为enjoying。
6.考查副词。句意:最后,我们品尝了一些当地特色小吃。副词作状语,修饰后面的整个句子。故将Final改为Finally。
7.考查动词不定式。句意:不知不觉,我们该回家了。“It be time (for sb) to do sth”意为“到(某人)做某事的时间了”。故在go前面加入to。
8.考查形容词。句意:虽然徒步旅行很累,但我们都玩得很开心。tired与tiring都具有形容词词性,但tired前主语应为人,tiring前主语应为物。本句中主语是the hike,属于物,故将tired改为tiring。
9.考查人称代词。句意:我们不仅因欣赏大自然的美而放松,而且还开阔了视野。根据句意可知,主语应是“我们”。故将They改为We。
10.考查连词。句意:我们不仅因欣赏大自然的美而放松,而且还开阔了视野。“not only……but also……”意为“不仅……而且……”。故将and改为but。
