Some Top Coast Destinations to Visit
Britain has over 18000 miles of coastline to explore: from white soft sands and vibrant seaside resorts, to wild nature reserves filled with puffins (海鹦), dolphins and various thrills. Wherever you’re heading, here’s where to splash, surf, dive, swim-and perhaps even sunbathe-on Britain’s shores.
Why we love Kent
From ice-cream shops to towns that are on the map for cutting-edge food and art, the ‘Garden of England’ is meant for discovery. Just a short hop from London takes you to Margate-home to the Turner Contemporary gallery and Dreamland theme park. Tuck into delicious oysters and other seafood in Whitstable or try bohemian Ramsgate for a weekend away. Relax among the candy-coloured beach huts of Broadstairs, or bring the past alive in the surrounds of time-honored Dover Castle, Leeds Castle or Canterbury Cathedral.
Why we love the Jurassic Coast
Welcome to dinosaur territory. Over 200 million years old, the Jurassic Coast’s beaches and rocks are strewn with ancient fossils and footprints-yours to discover on walks, bike rides and picnics. But that’s not all. This 95-mile coastline also offers countless ways to explore: from kayaking between the chalk-white towers of Old Harry Rocks and swimming in West Bay’s clear waters, to watching the sunset over the sea from Portland Bill Lighthouse. Wherever you venture, here’s what to look out for, and the best places to stay.
Why we love the Wales Coast Path
This isn’t just a walking trail-it’s the route to adventure, culture, wildlife and more, serving up 870miles of breathtaking sea views, glorious beaches, wildflower-topped cliffs and charming harbour villages. Even a short walk is a starting point to discover the treasures of coastal Wales: from surfing, sailing and swimming, to horse-riding on beaches and cycling through forests.
You don’t have to be a long-distance hiker to enjoy the Wales Coast Path: wildlife lovers, thrill seekers, day trippers — this one’s for you.
1. Which of the following may be the reason why people visit Kent?
A. Its thrilling sea sports. B. Its long hiking path.

When the parcel arrives, the remote-controlled car inside is broken. That could easily result in an unhappy child — but not this time.
The package has come from a British start-up that hopes to equip the nation’s youngsters with an endangered skill: the ability to fix gadgets when they fail. The aim is to encourage 10 to 14-year-olds to try fixing electronic devices and learn how they work, by sending them faulty toys that they have to take apart and repair themselves. The company, Team Repair, has been founded by five engineering graduates from Imperial College London. Having begun as a university project, its ultimate goal is to steer children into careers in science and to nurture (培养) a new generation of engineers and inventors.
“Every month, we’ll send children an electronic gadget with a carefully planned fault,” said Patrick McGuckian, 22, the chief operating officer. “The idea is that they learn key repair skills, and that they also learn the science and technology behind how the components inside it work.”
It is estimated that two million tonnes of electrical and electronic items are thrown away in the UK each year. “Meanwhile, the UK has a Stem [science, technology, engineering and maths] skills shortage costing£1.5 billion a year,” McGuckian said. “We wanted to help solve those two problems.”
The service — currently in a testing phase — will cost £28 a month, with each kit designed to keep a child occupied for several hours. Once a gadget has been mended, you post it back so it can be broken again for somebody else to fix. There is also an app to provide instructions on how to perform the repair, and also mini science lessons. “As a society we’ve been tuned to replace rather than repair,” McGuckian said. “We want to encourage a different mindset in the next generation — and on top of that, we want them to be creative, to be engineers, to be inventors that solve the biggest problems.”
4. Why does the author mention the remote-controlled car in the first paragraph?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To present a fact.
C. To make a comparison. D. To explain a point.
5. What’s the aim of setting up the company Team Repair?
A. To provide children with faulty toys. B. To reduce the use of electronic items.
C. To help children learn Stem skills for free. D. To equip children with the ability to repair.
6. What will children get if they sign up for the service?
A. The gadget after being repaired. B. Face-to-face guidance to mend.
C. Some mini science lessons online. D. A faulty electronic gadget weekly.
7. What is the suitable title for the text?
A. Broken Toys Have a Good Place to Go B. Team Repair for Young People was Set Up
C. The Ability to Fix Gadgets is to be Improved D. Broken Toys Offer Neat Fix for Skills Shortage
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英国一家公司的最新设想，该公司是由伦敦帝国理工学院的五名工程专业毕业生创立的。该公司每个月给孩子们送一个精心设计的电子产品，鼓励他们尝试修理电子设备，并了解它们是如何工作的。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“When the parcel arrives, the remote-controlled car inside is broken. That could easily result in an unhappy child — but not this time.(当包裹到达时，里面的遥控汽车坏了。这很容易导致一个不快乐的孩子——但这次不会。)”以及文章第二段“The package has come from a British start-up that hopes to equip the nation’s youngsters with an endangered skill: the ability to fix gadgets when they fail. The aim is to encourage 10 to 14-year-olds to try fixing electronic devices and learn how they work, by sending them faulty toys that they have to take apart and repair themselves. (这个方案来自于一家英国初创公司，它希望让英国的年轻人掌握一项濒危的技能：在电子产品出故障时修理它们的能力。其目的是鼓励10到14岁的孩子尝试修理电子设备，并了解它们是如何工作的，方法是给他们送一些有缺陷的玩具，让他们自己拆开修理。)”可知，第一段提到坏掉的遥控汽车，是为了引出最后一句“但这次不会”；而“但这次不会”则指的是第二段一家英国公司的方案。由此推断，第一段提到遥控汽车坏了，是为了引出文章的主题。故选A。

C
It isn’t just people who get road rage. Robins, a kind of small brown European bird, in the countryside become more aggressive when they hear the sound of traffic, according to a study.
When a robin arrives uninvited on another bird’s territory they adapt their songs to ward the rival away, and adopt visual displays including swaying from side to side and threateningly baring their red chest feathers, before closing in and even going on the attack. Previous studies had found that robins living in cities were more physically aggressive than their rural cousins. The latest research suggests that noise pollution could play a part.
To explore the connection, scientists from UK and Turkey put a 3D-printed plastic model of a robin on another robin’s place at two locations: an urban park in Istanbul that was close to busy roads, and a quiet wooded area outside the city. The model intruder (闯入者) was also equipped with recordings of robin songs. Then, through a separate speaker nearby, they added traffic noise.
“In normally quiet surroundings, we found that additional traffic noise leads to rural robins becoming more physically aggressive, for instance approaching the model bird more closely,” said Dr Çağlar Akçay, the study’s lead author. But when they played the extra traffic to the urban birds, they did not become any more aggressive-instead they responded by singing less, suggesting they had perhaps learned to “sit out” temporary increases in noise.
Akçay and his team believed that the traffic noise was interfering with robins’ natural communication through song. “The high levels of noise that exist day and night in urban habitats, such as from traffic or construction equipment, may permanently interfere with the efficient transmission of acoustic (声音的) signals and this is likely to be the key reason why urban robins are typically more aggressive than rural birds,” he said.
8. What kind of bird are robins?
A. Mild. B. Competitive. C. Cooperative. D. Graceful.
9. How did the scientists conduct the study?
A. By analyzing previous research data. B. By citing the famous scientists’ words.
C. By comparing robins’ different responses. D. By recording the model intruder’s behavior.
10. When exposed to extra traffic noise, how may urban robins react?
A Sing not as frequently as usual. B. Ward the rival away by singing more.
C. Sway more violently from side to side. D. Approach the model bird more closely.
11. What is Akçay’s attitude to the future of robins?
A. Unclear. B. Indifferent. C. Optimistic. D. Concerned.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究发现生活在城市的知更鸟比它们在农村的表亲更具攻击性，文章介绍了研究开展的过程以及发现。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“When a robin arrives uninvited on another bird’s territory, they adapt their songs to ward the rival away, and adopt visual displays including swaying from side to side and threateningly baring their red chest feathers, before closing in and even going on the attack.(当一只知更鸟不请自来地来到另一只鸟的领地时，它们会调整自己的歌声来赶走对手，并采取视觉表现，包括左右摇摆，威胁地露出红色的胸毛，然后再靠近，甚至发动攻击)”可知，知更鸟是好胜的鸟。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段““In normally quiet surroundings, we found that additional traffic noise leads to rural robins becoming more physically aggressive, for instance approaching the model bird more closely,” said Dr Çağlar Akçay, the study’s lead author. But when they played the extra traffic to the urban birds, they did not become any more aggressive-instead they responded by singing less, suggesting they had perhaps learned to “sit out” temporary increases in noise. (该研究的主要作者Çağlar Akçay博士说：“在通常安静的环境中，我们发现额外的交通噪音会导致农村知更鸟变得更具攻击性，例如更接近模型鸟。但是，当它们给城市里的鸟儿播放额外的交通噪音时，它们并没有变得更有攻击性——相反，它们的反应是更少地鸣叫，这表明它们可能已经学会了“不听”暂时增加的噪音)”可知，科学家们通过比较知更鸟的不同反应进行这项研究。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“But when they played the extra traffic to the urban birds, they did not become any more aggressive-instead they responded by singing less, suggesting they had perhaps learned to “sit out” temporary increases in noise.(但是，当它们给城市里的鸟儿播放额外的交通噪音时，它们并没有变得更有攻击性——相反，它们的反应是更少地鸣叫，这表明它们可能已经学会了“不听”暂时增加的噪音)”可知，当暴露在额外的交通噪音中，城市知更鸟唱歌不像平时那么频繁。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““The high levels of noise that exist day and night in urban habitats, such as from traffic or construction equipment, may permanently interfere with the efficient transmission of acoustic (声音的) signals and this is likely to be the key reason why urban robins are typically more aggressive than rural birds,” he said.(他说：“城市栖息地日夜存在的高水平噪音，比如来自交通或建筑设备的噪音，可能会永久干扰声音信号的有效传输，这可能是城市知更鸟通常比农村鸟类更具攻击性的关键原因。”)”可推知，Akçay对知更鸟的未来感到担忧。故选D。
D
For more than a century, Paul Cézanne (1839-1906) has been celebrated as an artist’s artist. For nearly as long, the banker’s son from Aix-en-Provence has been credited with laying the groundwork for the 20th-century avant-garde (前卫派思想). But the curators (负责人) of the largest Cézanne exhibition since 1997 decided that more could be learned about the great French post-impressionist simply by looking more closely at his paintings.
Of the 80 oil paintings in this show, which will later travel to London’s Tate Modern, eight have been subjected to infrared X-ray and other imaging technologies to determine how he made each mark. The curators’ conclusion: What made Cézanne a pioneer and enduring inspiration is that in every landscape, still life, portrait, and figure painting, he was trying to communicate emotion with every brushstroke, building each image sensation by sensation.
Unlike other artists, Cézanne seems “less concerned about what he is depicting than how he is building a picture,” said Kyle MacMillan in the Chicago Sun Times. In paintings such as Still Life With Apples (1893-94), “standard rules of perspective are overthrown and the objects look like they are about to slide off the table.” But the impact that Cézanne had is obvious in this show, which “goes to great lengths” to highlight which works were collected by fellow artists, said J. S. Marcus in The Wall Street Journal. Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso, and Henri Matisse all owned Cézannes, and Jasper Johns has loaned the show one of Cézanne’s drawings of female bathers, a favorite subject of the earlier artist that is showcased in this exhibition’s final room. The figures in these works “often have an impassive (冷漠的) quality, leading many critics to wonder if he filled his celebrated apples with greater emotion than his human subjects.”
But not that the show tells you how to interpret Cézannes. “It’s up to you to wind your own way. It’s what Cézanne did, after all.”
12. What can we learn about Cézanne?
A. He painted about 80 oil paintings in his lifetime.
B. He was the curator of the largest gallery in France.
C. He was a great French post-impressionist in the 1800s.
D. He was a pioneer in painting with modern technologies.
13. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “overthrown” in paragraph 3?
A. Abandoned. B. Established. C. Obeyed. D. Created.
14. What can be inferred about Cézanne’s works?
A. The figures in his works are full of emotions.
B. His works were loved by many fellow artists.
C. The theme of his early works was related to religion.
D. His works are being exhibited in Tate Modern in London.
15. What is this text mainly about?
A. Works of Cézanne. B. The life story of Cézanne.
C. An exhibition of Cézanne. D. Painting skills of Cézanne.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了19世纪伟大的法国后印象派画家Cézanne（塞尚）及其作品的特色。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“For nearly as long, the banker’s son from Aix-en-Provence has been credited with laying the groundwork for the 20th-century avant-garde (前卫派思想). But the curators (负责人) of the largest Cézanne exhibition since 1997 decided that more could be learned about the great French post-impressionist simply by looking more closely at his paintings.(几乎同样长的时间里，这位来自普罗旺斯艾克斯的银行家之子一直被认为是20世纪前卫艺术的奠基人。但是，自1997年以来规模最大的Cézanne展览的策展人认为，只要更仔细地观察这位伟大的法国后印象派画家的画作，就可以了解更多关于他的东西)”可知，Cézanne是19世纪伟大的法国后印象派画家。故选C。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“Unlike other artists, Cézanne seems “less concerned about what he is depicting than how he is building a picture,” said Kyle MacMillan in the Chicago Sun Times. (《芝加哥太阳报》的Kyle MacMillan说，与其他艺术家不同，Cézanne似乎“不太关心他在描绘什么，而更关心他是如何构建一幅画的”)”；划线词后文“the objects look like they are about to slide off the table(物体看起来就像要从桌子上滑下来一样)”可知，之前透视的标准规则被摒弃了，物体看起来就像要从桌子上滑下来一样。故划线词意思是“摒弃、抛弃”。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso, and Henri Matisse all owned Cézannes, and Jasper Johns has loaned the show one of Cézanne’s drawings of female bathers, a favorite subject of the earlier artist that is showcased in this exhibition’s final room.(Claude Monet、Pablo Picasso和Henri Matisse都拥有Cézanne的作品，Jasper Johns把Cézanne的一幅女性游泳者的画作借给了这次展览，这是这位早期艺术家最喜欢的主题，将在本次展览的最后一个展厅展出)”可推知，Cézanne的作品受到许多同行艺术家的喜爱。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Of the 80 oil paintings in this show, which will later travel to London’s Tate Modern, eight have been subjected to infrared X-ray and other imaging technologies to determine how he made each mark. The curators’ conclusion: What made Cézanne a pioneer and enduring inspiration is that in every landscape, still life, portrait, and figure painting, he was trying to communicate emotion with every brushstroke, building each image sensation by sensation.(这次展览展出的80幅油画将在伦敦泰特现代美术馆展出，其中有8幅油画经过红外x射线和其他成像技术的检测，以确定他是如何做出每一个标记的。策展人的结论是：Cézanne之所以能成为先驱和持久的灵感，是因为在每一幅风景画、静物画、肖像画和人物画中，他都试图用每一笔来传达情感，用每一种感觉来构建每一种图像感觉)”结合文章主要介绍了19世纪伟大的法国后印象派画家Cézanne及其作品的特色，可知，文章主要讲了Cézanne的作品。故选A。

The Healing Power of Water
It has been a rough few years. Many of us are finding ourselves exhausted, burned out, struggling to build balance back into our lives. ____16____ Neuro scientists say that spending time near oceans, lakes, rivers and other blue spaces can provide a range of benefits including reducing anxiety, easing mental fatigue and refreshing us.
Participating in water activities such as swimming or surfing can help us enter a “flow state,” where we become fully immersed in what we’re doing. ____17____ When we become skilled at an activity, our brain changes, making it even easier to enter a state of flow in the future.
Bodies of water also can produce a glorious sense of awe—the emotional response to something vast that expands and challenges how we see the world. ____18____
Water has special properties that may boost nature’s positive impact. ____19____ Its smell can provoke positive memories and associations. When we are near water, there is often less visual and auditory information to process. Our mind can rest. When we’re floating in water, our bodies can rest too, in a way we never can on land.
____20____ It moves rhythmically, producing a play of light, color and sound that is spellbinding. It holds our attention, but not in an overly demanding way. Researchers call this soft fascination. It gives our brains a break from the intense, focused attention that much of daily life requires.
A. Most important: Water is dynamic.
B. We need to recharge and water can help.
C. The sound of water, typically steady and soft, soothes us.
D. We can spend time on the water anywhere, anytime in our mind.
E. This calms the mind, which is often absorbed by worry and anxiety.
F. It’s not just our bodies that need the element of life—it’s our minds too.
G. Such sense of awe can decrease stress and help us put things into perspective.

根据上文提示“Water has special properties that may boost nature’s positive impact.（水具有特殊的性质，可以增强大自然的积极影响。）”可知，下文应该介绍水的性质和影响。承接上文，C项The sound of water, typically steady and soft, soothes us.（水声，典型的稳定和柔和，抚慰我们。）切题，其中typically steady and soft与上文special properties一致，故选C。
【20题详解】
根据下文内容“It moves rhythmically, producing a play of light, color and sound that is spellbinding. It holds our attention, but not in an overly demanding way. Researchers call this soft fascination. It gives our brains a break from the intense, focused attention that much of daily life requires.（它有节奏地移动，产生一场光、色和声的游戏，令人着迷。它吸引了我们的注意力，但不是以一种过分要求的方式。研究人员称之为“软魅力”。它让我们的大脑从日常生活中需要的紧张、集中的注意力中休息一下。）”可知，该段介绍水最重要的特点——流动性。由此可知，A项Most important: Water is dynamic.（最重要的是：水是动态的。）切题。故选A。

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。
The little bird perched itself on the tree branch outside Vanessa’s bedroom window. It trilled (啼啭) an energetic song as the first pale yellow rays of sunshine peeked over the horizon.
“Oh my gosh, what is that noise?” she complained to herself, pulling her bed sheets over her head in an attempt to drown out the chirping. It was no use, and she knew it. The loud tweeting signalled the coming of the day. To confirm it, Vanessa’s mom knocked twice on her door, and then came in with a smile. “Time to get up, Sleepyhead,” she whispered. “The early bird catches the worm, you know.”
“Ugh,” mumbled Vanessa into her pillow. “What does that even mean?”
“It’s just an expression, Honey,” her mom replied. She gave Vanessa a kiss on the cheek and urged her to get out of bed. Vanessa rolled over and slept for a few more minutes.
Vanessa shuffled her way downstairs for breakfast, ate slowly, and missed her bus. When she finally got to school, she had missed attendance and had to get a late pass. She missed the first part of math class, so she didn’t understand the lesson and had to get extra help. Her teacher gave her extra homework to make sure she knew it. This day was no fun.
The next morning, Vanessa was woken up by the same loud, twittering song. Instead of ignoring it, today Vanessa walked over to the window and opened the curtains. Soft light filled the room. “Well, hello there, little fellow,” she said when she saw the pretty bird outside, still chirping happily. It was startled by her voice and flew down to land on the fresh dew of the morning grass. As she watched, the bird cocked its head, plunged its beak into the wet ground, and plucked out a wiggling worm for breakfast.
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:
“Hmm,” thought Vanessa, “maybe I can try being an early bird for once.”

Paragraph 2:
Vanessa couldn’t help humming a merry tone on her way home.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】“Hmm,” thought Vanessa, “maybe I can try being an early bird for once.” Vanessa decided to get up early the next morning. She made her bed, brushed her teeth, and washed her face. She then went downstairs and had breakfast with her mom. “Good morning, sweetie,” her mom said as she kissed her on the forehead. “You’re up early today.” “Yes, I am,” Vanessa replied with a smile. “I have an idea.” “An idea for what? ” asked her mom.“To catch the worm,” Vanessa said with a serious expression. Her mom laughed and hugged her. “Go for it, sweetie. I believe you can do it.”
Vanessa couldn’t help humming a merry tone on her way home. She had done it. She had caught the worm. It may have been a small accomplishment, but it felt good to start the day with a positive attitude. She knew she had to keep it up for the rest of the week, too. After all, it was never too late to be an early bird.
【解析】

②由第二段首句内容“Vanessa在回家的路上忍不住哼了一支欢快的曲子。”可知，第二段可描写Vanessa越想越开心，决定坚持早起。
2.续写线索：Vanessa被小鸟的歌声吵醒，却不愿起床——Vanessa上课迟到了，导致一天都不顺利——次日，Vanessa再次被小鸟的歌声吵醒，但这次，Vanessa决定以后向小鸟学习，也要早起——第二天，Vanessa早起吃早餐、去上学——Vanessa在学校度过愉快的一天，她也明白了早起的好处——Vanessa决定以后都要早起
