For the past three decades, Richard Sears, 71, has been focusing on one thing: Chinese culture.
His interest in Chinese language goes back to 1972, when he was a university student. “I had checked across Canada and the US. And I was on my way to Africa,” he says. “I wanted to see the world. But then 1 realized only 7 percent of the world speaks English as a mother tongue. So I wanted to know what it was like to speak another language.” Richard bought a one-way ticket to China to learn Chinese. At that time Richard supported himself by teaching English.
Two years later, he returned to the US to finish his study. He became a researcher after graduation and later worked as a software engineer in Silicon Valley. In 1981 he lost his job. He even had to work on a night job as a guard for several years so that he could study Chinese at night and get some rest during the day. “I didn’t earn much, but at least I had time to read Chinese books.” he says. At 40, he was already pretty fluent in Chinese.
In 1994 Richard suffered a heart attack. “I did not know if I would live another hour.” he says. “When I finally recovered, I had to think about my life, I had to plan as if I was going to die maybe in a year. So I decided to better know about Chinese with more efforts.”
Last September, Richard set up his studio in Nanjing as part of the local authority’s plan to promote cultural services. The studio focuses on telling stories of Chinese culture and character origins. They have made more than 60 such videos in both English and Chinese.
“We also want to make videos with a high educational value both for Chinese and foreign learners of Chinese characters. There will be a large number of videos, showing the origins of modern and traditional Chinese characters.” Richard says.
4. When did Richard Sears start to learn Chinese?
A. In 1971. B. In 1972. C. In 1981. D. In 1994.
5. How did Richard Sears earn a living while learning Chinese in China?
A. By teaching English. B. By developing software.
C. By his friends’ support. D. By working as a guard.
6. What can we say about Richard Sears’ studio?
A. It has posted less than 60 videos in English.
B. It aims to promote Chinese culture.
C. It’s mainly loved by Chinese speakers.
D. It was established by the local government.
7. Which of the following best describes Richard Sears?

C. Helpful. D. Determined.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. B 7. D

People have used pigeons to carry messages to one another for hundreds of years. In fact, pigeons were a common way to send messages right up through Would War II.
In 1815, English troops were fighting Napoleon’s forces in France, and the English were believed to be losing. A financial panic swept over London. Government bonds(债券)were offered at low prices. Few people noticed that Nathan Rothschild, an English banker, was snapping up these bonds when everyone else was trying to sell them. A few days later, London learned the truth: the Duke of Wellington had defeated Napoleon at the battle of Waterloo. The value of the bonds soared(暴涨), and Rothschild became wealthy…all because his pigeons had brought him news of the victory before anyone else knew of it.
Carrier pigeons were used by countries in both World War I and World War II. Not only were the birds often the fastest, most reliable way to send messages, they could also be used to reach soldiers far behind enemy lines, where radios and field telephone lines were useless. Since they could easily be released from airplanes or ships, every branch of the armed services used the birds.
Carrying messages could be a dangerous job. Some pigeons performed with such bravery that they became famous and were even awarded medals. The most famous pigeon of all may have been Cher Ami. Stationed in France during World War I, he carried twelve important messages for American forces. On his last mission, though wounded, he carried a message that saved the lives of 194 American soldiers. For his amazing service, he was awarded the French “Croix de Guerre.”
Today, modern communication methods can carry information from one place to another hundreds of times faster than a pigeon could do it. However, few people would argue with the fact that carrier pigeons — especially those that served in the military — have earned their place in history.
8. Nathan Rothschild made his fortune by ________.
A. relying on messages sent to him by carrier pigeons
B. predicting successfully the result of the battle
C. his experience and a good knowledge of bonds
D. his ability to tell right from wrong
9. What does “snapping up” mean in the second paragraph?
A. Giving away.
B. Destroying.
C. Throwing out.
D Buying.
10. The author provides dates and numbers throughout this text in order to ________.
A. avoid mixing up the readers’ minds when reading for information
B. prove that carrier pigeons are more important in modern times than in the past
C. show the influence of carrier pigeons at important points in history
D. explain the causes and effects of world events
11. What is the author’s attitude towards carrier pigeons?
A. Doubtful. B. Negative.
C. Positive. D. Unconcerned.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲了几百年来,人们用鸽子互相传递信息。在一战和二战期间,鸽子传递信息被广泛使用。携带信息可能是一项危险的工作,一些鸽子因为表现的勇敢还获得了奖牌。现在的通讯方法虽然可以很快的传递信息,比鸽子的速度快数百倍。然而,很少有人会反驳信鸽在历史上赢得的一席之地。
8题详解】
细节理解题 根据第二段最后一句话“The value of the bonds soared(暴涨), and Rothschild became wealthy…all because his pigeons had brought him news of the victory before anyone else knew of it.”(债券的价值飙升,罗斯柴尔德变得富有……这一切都是因为他的鸽子在别人知道之前给他带来了胜利的消息。)可知Nathan Rothschild是依靠信鸽寄给他消息发财的,故选A。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。 根据第二段“A financial panic swept over London. Government bonds(债券)were offered at low prices. Few people noticed that Nathan Rothschild, an English banker, was snapping up these bonds when everyone else was trying to sell them.” 金融恐慌席卷了伦敦。政府债券以低价发售。很少有人注意到英国银行家内森•罗斯柴尔德在其他人都试图出售这些债券的时候snapping up这些债券。)可知,Nathan Rothschild发财的原因是别人卖债券的时候,他买入债券,战后,债券的价格暴涨,所以此处“snapping up”有“买”的意思,故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。 作者文中提及World War I and World War II和194 American soldiers等是为了说明信鸽在一战和二战期间所起的重要作用,即展示信鸽在重要历史时刻的影响,故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题 。从最后一段“Today, modern communication methods can carry information from one place to another hundreds of times faster than a pigeon could do it. However, few people would argue with the fact that carrier pigeons — especially those that served in the military — have earned their place in history.”(今天,现代通信方法可以把信息从一个地方传到另一个地方,比鸽子传播的速度快数百倍。然而,很少有人会质疑信鸽——尤其是那些在军队服役的信鸽——在历史上赢得了一席之地)可知,现代的信息技术虽然可以很快地传递信息,比信鸽快数百倍,但是仍不能动摇信鸽在历史上取得的一席之地,所以作者对信鸽的地位是肯定的,故选C。
D
A scientist locked himself in a small air-tight plastic tent with 200 plants to see if they could change CO2 into oxygen (氧气) fast enough to keep him alive.
Kurtis Baute locked himself in a 3m by 3m tent in his brother’s backyard in British Columbia, Canada. He hoped to find out if by surrounding himself with plants, the CO2 he breathed out could be changed into oxygen to allow him to survive in the locked tent for at least three days. Unfortunately, he had to give up the experiment after only 15 hours, as CO2 levels reached a dangerous point where he risked suffering brain damage.
“I could probably survive in the tent for three days,” Baute wrote on his website. “But my goal is not to just ‘not die’. My goal is to end this project without developing brain damage or just generally causing lasting harm to my body. But as it turns out, that’s exactly what he risked as the 200 plants he took with him into the tent couldn’t meet his needs. Clearly, a cloudy sky prevented them from receiving all the sunlight they needed to perform photosynthesis (光合作用), so they couldn’t recycle CO2 fast enough.
“Plants are great at taking in CO2 and they love it. Since it wasn’t a bright and sunny day, they weren’t getting the light they needed, which meant CO2 just kept rising. I had to give up the experiment as that continued.” the young experimenter said.
15 hours into the experiment, Baute reached the set danger point and then ended this experiment. Still, he called the experiment a “huge success” as his main goal was actually the terrible effects of climate change and CO2 emissions. “The conclusion about my experiment is that if CO2 is too high, I’ll escape, which is just everyday experiences for many people on this planet. Everyone deserves clean air, but not everyone has it,” he wrote.
12. Why did Kurtis Baute stay in the tent for only 15 hours?
A. The tent is too small for him to stay too long.
B. The environment in the tent is dangerous for him.
C. CO2 in the tent couldn’t be changed into oxygen.
D. He couldn’t survive in the locked tent any longer.
13. What made it hard for the 200 plants to satisfy Kurtis Baute’s needs?
A. His health condition. B. His wrong decision.
C. Too much CO2. D. The cloudy weather.
14. What does Kurtis think of the result of the experiment?
A. Disappointing. B. Surprising.
C. Satisfying. D. Interesting.
15. What may be the best title for the text?
A. A test to show the importance of clean air
B. Surviving in the tent
C. The set danger point
D. Making people know the use of plants
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。一位科学家把自己锁在一个装有200株植物的密闭塑料小帐篷里,想看看这些植物是否能将二氧化碳快速转化为氧气,以维持他的生命。以此来证明干净的空气是多么的重要。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。第二段最后一句“Unfortunately, he had to give up the experiment after only 15 hours, as CO2 levels reached a dangerous point where he risked suffering brain damage.”可知仅仅15个小时后,他就不得不放弃实验是因为二氧化碳浓度达到了一个危险的水平,他可能会遭受脑损伤。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Clearly, a cloudy sky prevented them from receiving all the sunlight they needed to perform photosynthesis (光合作用), so they couldn’t recycle CO2 fast enough.” 这200盆植物难以满足Kurtis Baute的需求的原因是,多云的天空使它们无法获得进行光合作用所需的全部阳光,因此它们无法足够快地回收二氧化碳。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。最后一段第二句“Still, he called the experiment a “huge success””可知Kurtis仍然称这个实验是一个“巨大的成功”可知他对实验结果是“满意的”,故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“A scientist locked himself in a small air-tight plastic tent with 200 plants to see if they could change CO2 into oxygen (氧气) fast enough to keep him alive. ” 一位科学家把自己锁在一个装有200株植物的密闭塑料小帐篷里,想看看这些植物是否能将二氧化碳快速转化为氧气,以维持他的生命。以及最后一段“Everyone deserves clean air, but not everyone has it,” he wrote.”可知文章的主要目的是为了通过实验来说明干净空气的重要性。

【分析】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是中国扇子的发展过程。
【41题详解】
考查名词的复数。句意:中国扇子自古以来就具有艺术和独特的民族风格。time 表示(历史上或一生中的特殊) 时期时是可数名词,前面无冠词,因此空格处用复数,故填times。

【43题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:中国一直被认为是“扇子王国”。be regarded as…为固定短语,意为“被认为……”,故填as。
【44题详解】
考查一般过去时。句意:扇子最早出现在中国,大约在3000年前的商周时期。由时间状语about 3,000 years ago可知,句子时态用一般过去时,因此空格处用过去式appeared。故填appeared。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意:但在早期,扇子被用作礼仪的象征,被称为“荣誉之扇”。the fan in the early period was used as the symbol of etiquette和it was called“the fan of honor”为并列关系,因此空格处用并列连词and,故填and。
【46题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:制作扇子的材料主要是丝绸。句中谓语为were,空格处用非谓语形式,The materials和use之间为被动关系,因此空格处用过去分词表被动,在句中作后置定语,故填used。
【47题详解】
考查定语从句引导词。句意:拿着丝扇的人总是显得温柔。空格处引导定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词person指人,因此空格处用引导词who,故填who。
【48题详解】
考查副词。句意:折扇在宋朝以后逐渐流行起来。空格处用副词修饰动词became,gradual的副词为gradually,意为“逐渐”,故填gradually。

考查名词。句意:随后,在扇子的封面上写诗和画图的流行程度也在上升。the后需跟名词,popular的名词为popularity,意为“流行程度”,是不可数名词,故填popularity。
【50题详解】
考查一般过去时的被动语态。句意:后来,这项技能被引进欧洲,并在全世界流行起来。技能是被引进,由后面的became可知,句子时态为一般过去时,因此空格处用一般过去时的被动语态,即was/were done,主语this skill是单数,因此空格处为was introduced,故填was introduced。

My classmates were all active in class. To my joy, I understood everything the teacher said. But I was able to ask question in English. I was deeply encouraged.. I think if we practise like this, to learn spoken English well will be easily for us.

第五处:with→in
第六处:understand→understood

第八处:But→And
第九处:question→questions
第十处:easily→easy

第三处:考查形容词。句意:我们发现他的讲座生动有趣。此处与前面的lively并列用形容词作宾补,故interestingly改为interesting。
第四处:考查a lot与a lot of的区别。句意:我从他那里学到了很多。a lot of作定语修饰名词,此处用a lot修饰动词learned,作状语,故去掉of。
第五处:考查介词。句意:那个老师用简单的英语和我们畅谈。使用某种语言,用介词in,故with改为in。
第六处:考查时态。句意:他语速很慢,所以我们听得很清楚。陈述的是过去的事情,用一般过去时,故understand改为understood。
第七处:考查宾语从句。句意:有时他会再说一遍我们没有听懂的。此处为宾语从句,从句中的understand缺少宾语,指“……的东西”,故that改为what。
第八处:考查连词。句意:令我高兴的是,我听懂了老师说的全部。我还能用英语提问。根据句意,前后是并列而非转折关系,故But改为And。
第九处:考查名词的数。句意同上,ask questions提问,泛指多个问题,故question改为questions。
第十处:考查形容词。句意:我想如果我们这样练习,学好英语口语对我们来说将很容易。此处用形容词作表语,故easily改为easy。

Let’s Protect the Environment Together!
Dear boys and girls,
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Let’s Protect the Environment Together!
Dear boys and girls,
I’m very honored to express my opinion on environment protection.
The first thing I want to stress is that the environment is becoming worse and worse with the development of modern industry. Therefore, it’s high time that some immediate measures should be taken to protect our home—the Earth, or we would have nowhere to live. Moreover, we as high school students can protect our environment by living a different life.
First of all do turn off lights and other switches when not using them to save electricity. Additionally, if we go out, we should walk, ride or take public transport instead of driving private cars. Last but not the least, reusing paper and bottles in our daily life is also highly recommended.
Let’s start with small things now to make our environment better and better! Only in this way can we live in a more beautiful world!
Thanks for listening!
