阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
Christmas is coming, and it is time to warm yourself and head out to see some festive lights. There are plenty of choices when it comes to following a light path as part of your Christmas celebrations.
Oxford Street
Oxford Street’s festive lights are a treat for the eyes this year. However you’ll have to pick your hours carefully as the lights—which we returned on at the start of November—are only on for eight hours a day this year, from 3-11 pm, because of the rising energy costs the country is facing. It is expected this will reduce energy usage by up to two thirds compared to previous years, when the lights have been on for 24 hours through November and December.
Kew Garden
One of the most famous light paths of the season, Christmas at Kew offers a full-on festive experience with over 2 km of lights to walk through. Along the way you’ll have the chance to sample festive food and drink, and possibly even say hello to Santa himself.
Regent Street
Regent Street’s lights are on the theme of The Spirit Of Christmas this year, bringing golden angels to the shopping street. The lights, which cover Regent Street and the St James neighbourhoods, were turned on on November 9, and like the Oxford St lights are turned on between 3 and 11 pm.
Covent Garden
A visit to Covent Garden will certainly get you in the festive spirit this year, with the central London destination offering a whole lot of lights—from 11 am until midnight every day until January 3. Visitors can also enjoy daily snow showers as well as festive food treats and heated wine—with over 40 different kinds there.
21．Why are Oxford Street’s festive lights just on for 8 hours a day this year?
A．The public ask to turn off these lights. B．The quality of these lights is not good.
C．The government wants to save energy D．The country expects to differ from previous years.
22．In which place do the lights mainly focus on The Spirit Of Christmas?
A．Oxford Street. B．Kew Gardens. C．Regent Street. D．Covent Garden.
23．What can visitors do when visiting Covent Garden?
A．Take a shower. B．See snow every day.
C．Pick out the favourite lights. D．Enjoy many different kinds of wines.

B
Aron Ralston was a pretty normal guy, but he always had an extremely adventurous desire to travel and see the world. During his childhood, his family moved to Denver, Colorado, a place offering many opportunities to climb mountains, explore, and eventually become the adventurer he’d always wanted to be. Back in 2003, Ralston was climbing in the remote, mountainous area of Southwestern Utah, when the unthinkable happened: Aron got stuck in a crevice (裂缝) in the rocks and pinned by a big stone that weighed over 360 kilograms. The weight of the rock crushed his arm, and he was pinned by it. Aron took photos of his bad situation (which was going to get a lot worse), hoping rescue teams (救援队) would know where he was and came to remove the rock so that he could get out and home safe.
But rescuers never came. Aron waited for them for days till he lost his hope. He knew he had to do something. He was 18 meters above the floor of the valley where he was pinned in, and he had a pocketknife. He made what must have been one of the most difficult decisions of his life: to cut his own arm in order to survive. Aron cut the lower part of his arm off, having to wrench (扭动) his forearm against the big stone to break the bones, and then got himself down to the bottom of the valley, where he would begin to walk and search for help. Luckily, help arrived in the form of a helicopter (直升机) that spotted him, covered in blood. Aron had tied off the wound to keep himself from bleeding to death pretty successfully and would eventually make it out alive.
Ralston went on to become an inspiring speaker and continued to travel and climb mountains—he didn’t let an incident that forced him to cut his own arm off, stop him from doing what he really loved.
24．What can be inferred about Aron’s getting stuck?
A．It was unavoidable. B．It resulted from his being lost.
C．It was unexpected. D．It was caused by a moving stone.
25．Why did Aron take photos of his bad situation?
A．To send them to rescuers for help. B．To keep a record of his adventure.
C．To remind his friends of the danger. D．To tell the doctors about his wound.
26．What did he do to survive when no rescue was expected come?
A．He waited for the rescue to come.
B．He cut the stone using his pocketknife.
C．He moved off the stone using all his might.
D. He cut his lower part of his arm and broke the bones.
27．What helped Aron Ralston survive?
A．His cruelty and anger. B．His effort and bravery.
C．His talent and creativity. D．His calmness and determination.
C
For the British, the home is a private place in which he or she goes to hide away from the troubles of life. It is very seldom that one would be invited to a British person’s home. It is rude to knock on a person’s door if you are not invited. If you are invited, don’t ask to see more than the downstairs that your British host invites you into. Never ask how much the house or any of the items in it cost.
To the American, most of them want their home to be a place where they can entertain (款待) and share their lives with their friends. They may be delighted to give you a full tour of their houses. They may also be pleased when you show your interest and pleasure in their houses.
Both British and American people will engage in quite a bit of chat and a drink or two before the meal is served. After the first mouthful, you should say how delicious the food is and ask something about it. Remember, never eat with your mouth open and make very little noise while eating. It would be nice of you to help your host in any way. Maybe offer to pour some drinks or clear up after the meal.
28．If your British friend invites you to his home, you can _________.
A．see anything you like
B．ask how much his house is
C．only see the downstairs that you’re invited into
D．ask the cost of any the items in it
29．When you show your interest and pleasure in American people’s houses, they may be _______.
A．happy B．angry C．sad D．worried
30．What does the underlined phrase “engage in” mean in Chinese?
A．参与 B．陷入 C．回避 D．限制
31．What’s the main idea of this passage?
A．Different table manners between British and American people.
B．Some manners on visiting British and American people’s home.
C．Different ideas about the home between British and American people.
D．Different ideas about how to get along well with neighbors between British and American people.
D
Should humans explore space? If you ask me, I’ll definitely give a positive answer.
The exploitation (开发) of space has a direct impact on the lives of humans, as well as the state of our world. Satellites moving around the earth enable communication across the world. connecting people of different continents and broadcasting information worldwide. The Global Positioning System (GPS) can identify our location anywhere. Furthermore, weather satellites can forecast harmful weather conditions which allows humans to prepare for deadly natural disasters and save lives.
Space programs can also indirectly help the solution to poverty (贫穷) and world hunger. For example, large plots of land could be used far better if humans applied technologies. The most effective tool is the artificial earth satellite. It can screen areas of land within a very short time, indicating useful measures such as the condition of crops, soil rainfall, and droughts. It can then transmit this information to ground stations on the earth for better use.
In recent years, space-based technologies have become an important factor to reach and expand global health objectives. Information provided by remote technologies can be applied to study the epidemiology (流行病学). This data provided by space technologies can monitor disease patterns, understand the environmental causes that spread it, make predictions about where it can spread in the future, and make plans to fight it efficiently.
Furthermore, access to better education means better life prospects and opportunities for human beings. Rural communities have disadvantaged access to education and satellite communication technologies are trying to bridge this gap. With the advancement of technology, students can now access any information and connect with peers and teachers in different parts of the world via video conferences and the creation of virtual classrooms.
Space exploration is something we can do for future generations. Mankind is using the resources provided on the planet, but these will run out one day. Overpopulation can be an existential threat for all mankind. With the advancement of space technology, it will be wise to use and explore the vast potential of other planets, such as the availability of mining resources on asteroids or other planets.
For the exploration of the universe, perhaps the most advantageous of all is that it will unite us to work together for a common purpose, in spite of our differences.
32．What can space exploitation do according to Paragraph 2?
A．Improve the traffic on the earth. B．Promote travel between countries.
C．Help prevent deadly natural disasters. D．Help humans communicate and exchange information.
33．How can space programs help with poverty and world hunger?
A．By benefiting crop production with artificial earth satellites.
B．By transporting food worldwide more easily.
C．By creating job opportunities for the poor.
D．By protecting available land resources.
34．What does the author think of mining resources on other planets?
A．Time-wasting B．Arguable. C．Necessary. D．Educational
35．What would be the best title for the text?
A．Why Space Exploration Is Important?
B．Why Humankind Should Keep Exploring?
C．Why We Should Improve Space Technology?
D．Why Humans Should Keep Developing Technologies?

Seek out as much natural light as possible. ____37____. Jennifer Martin, president of the board of directors for the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, agrees with it firstly.

Hold on even on weekends. Becoming a morning person is a seven-day-a-week job. Decide what time you’re going to wake up every day. ____39____.

Back in the day when I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with my life, I was studying to become a firefighter. I was a volunteer fire aide in New York, and was studying at Mission College. As a firefighter, you should always think of other people and try to help other people.
One night after going to class, I was walking home and decided to stop off at a fast food restaurant. I lived in an apartment alone near my college so most of the time I used to get a take-out, I got my food and started to head home when a homeless man walked to me. He looked 20 or so. He was very dirty and obviously very hungry. He asked me for some change to buy a little food. As I was pulling some change out, I had an idea.
I decided to see if he wanted to eat a real dinner, so I asked him to follow me back into the restaurant to order food together. For someone who had been on the fringes(边缘) of society it seemed like he was very surprised at my generosity(慷慨). But to me, it was what any ”human being“ should do or at least offer. He was afraid to go into the restaurant because of shame. But I insisted. When he finally followed me and walked into the restaurant, the people behind the counter refused to let him in, but I told them that I was buying him dinner and he had a right to be there. After some arguments, they finally let him in and he sat down at the table. It seemed like he was relieved a bit to be sitting at a table, I asked him to order whatever he wanted. He only ordered a hamburg, so I had to encourage him to order whatever he wanted.
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。
Finally he ordered three hamburgers and we began to talk._________________________________________

He stood up and looked at me, open-mouthed.__________________________________________________

Today I want to talk about my family. Whenever I need help, all my family are always there for me. My mother taught me how to cook and helped me with my homework throughout the school years.

He was always strict with me about tidying my room and washing dishes. Now, as a university student, I could definitely thank him for that useful knowledge. I also want to mention my grandparents.

They always have much patience with me, (20) and they often tell me that I can do anything I want to do, as long as I’m confident of myself. All these things are very precious to me.

【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四个可以观看圣诞节节日彩灯的地方。
21．细节理解题。根据“Oxford Street”部分关键句“However you’ll have to pick your hours carefully as the lights—which we returned on at the start of November—are only on for eight hours a day this year, from 3-11 pm, because of the rising energy costs the country is facing.”（然而，你必须仔细选择你的欣赏时间，由于国家面临能源成本不断上涨，我们在11月初重新开启的灯，今年每天只开8小时，从下午3点到11点。）可知，由于能源成本不断上涨，今年的灯每天只开8小时，由此可知，今年牛津大街的节日灯每天只亮8小时，因为政府想要节约能源。故选C项。
22．细节理解题。根据“Regent Street”部分关键句“Regent Street’s lights are on the theme of The Spirit Of Christmas this year, bringing golden angels to the shopping street.”（摄政街的灯光以今年的圣诞精神为主题，为购物街带来金色天使。）可知，摄政街的灯光以今年的圣诞精神为主题，由此可知，在摄政街，灯光主要集中在圣诞精神上。故选C项。
23．细节理解题。根据“Covent Garden”部分关键句“Visitors can also enjoy daily snow showers as well as festive food treats and heated wine—with over 40 different varieties there.”（游客还可以在那里享受每天的阵雪，以及节日食品和40多种不同品种的热葡萄酒。）可知，游客可以在这里享受到40多种不同品种的热葡萄酒，由此可知，游客参观科文特花园时可以享受多种不同种类的葡萄酒。故选D项。

24．推理判断题。根据第一段“Back in 2003, Ralston was climbing in the remote, mountainous area of Southwestern Utah, when the unthinkable happened: Aron got stuck in a crevice (裂缝) in the rocks and pinned by a big stone that weighed over 360 kilograms. (早在2003年，拉尔斯顿在犹他州西南部偏远的山区攀岩时，不可思议的事情发生了：阿伦被卡在岩石的裂缝中，他被一块重达360公斤的大石头压住了。)”可知，根据unthinkable可推知：Aron Ralston在攀岩过程中遭遇岩石碎裂，并被岩石压住，这次事故属于意外发生，故选C项。
25．推理判断题。根据第一段“Aron took photos of his bad situation (which was going to get a lot worse) , hoping rescue teams (救援队) would know where he was and came to remove the rock so that he could get out and home safe. (阿伦拍下了他糟糕的情况，情况会变得更糟，他等待救援队来移走岩石，这样他就可以安全回家了。)”可推知，阿伦拍下自己的情况，发给了救援队，有助于他们来营救。故选A项。
26．词句猜测题。根据第二段“Aron cut the lower part of his arm off, having to wrench (扭动) his forearm against the big stone to break the bones, and then got himself down to the bottom of the valley, where he would begin to walk and search for help.  Luckily, help arrived in the form of a helicopter(直升机) that spotted him, covered in blood. (阿伦切掉了他手臂的下半部分，他不得不用前臂抵住大石头来折断骨头，然后自己走到山谷的底部，在那里他开始走路并寻找帮助。幸运的是，一架直升机来了发现浑身是血的他。)”可知，阿伦等不来救援，只有选择断臂求生。故选D项。

(阿伦成功地把伤口绑了起来，使自己不至于失血过多而死，最终他活了出来)”可知，出了事故还能冷静拍照求救，为了生存而自断那只被压住的胳膊，还给自己包扎好，并走回到谷底寻求帮助，可推知：阿伦是一个冷静且果断的人，所以他能幸存下来。故选D项。

【导语】本文为一篇说明文。本文阐述了英国人和美国人对待客人的不同的文化和习俗，以及被邀请的人去做客时需要注意的一些礼仪。
28．细节理解题。根据第一段“If you are invited, don’t ask to see more than the downstairs that your British host invites you into. (如果你被邀请了，不要要求看到英国主人邀请你去的楼下以外的地方。)”可知，如果你被英国主人邀请，主人只会邀请你呆在他家的楼下范围，你的活动范围就是他的楼下范围。故选C项。
29．细节理解题。根据第二段“They may be delighted to give you a full tour of their houses. They may also be pleased when you show your interest and pleasure in their houses. (他们可能很乐意带你参观他们的房子。当你对他们的房子表现出兴趣和愉快时，他们也会很高兴。)”可知，当被美国人邀请去他们家，如果你对他们的房子表现出兴趣，他们会非常高兴。故选A项。

31．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“For the British, the home is a private place in which he or she goes to hide away from the troubles of life. It is very seldom that one would be invited to a British person’s home. (对英国人来说，家是一个私人的地方，是他们躲避生活烦恼的地方。很少有人会被邀请到英国人的家里去做客)”以及第二段“To the American, most of them want their home to be a place where they can entertain (款待) and share their lives with their friends. (对美国人来说，他们中的大多数人希望自己的家成为一个可以娱乐和与朋友分享生活的地方)”可知，本文主要阐述了英美人对待客人的不同态度，相对来说，美国人热情好客，英国人认为家应该保持私密性，因此，被邀请去的客人要根据主人的不同，注意相关的拜访礼仪。因此，本文主旨为拜访英美人家的一些礼仪。故选B项。

32．细节理解题。根据第二段“The space exploration has a direct impact on the lives of humans, as well as the state of our world. Satellites moving around the earth enable communication across the world, connecting people of different continents and broadcasting information worldwide.   The Global Positioning System(GPS) can identify our location anywhere. Furthermore, weather satellites can forecast harmful weather conditions, which allows humans to prepare for deadly natural disasters and save lives.”（太空探索直接影响着人类的生活，也影响着我们这个世界的现状。环绕地球运行的卫星使全世界的通信成为可能，将不同大陆的人们联系起来，向全世界广播信息。全球定位系统(GPS)可以在任何地方确定我们的位置。此外，气象卫星可以预测有害的天气状况，这使人类能够为致命的自然灾害做好准备，挽救生命。）可知，根据第二段，太空探索可以帮助人类交流和传播信息。故选D。
33．细节理解题。根据第三段“Space programs can also indirectly lead to the solution to poverty and world hunger. For example, large plots of land could be used far better if humans applied technologies. The most effective tool is the artificial earth satellite. It can screen areas of land within a very short time, indicating useful measures, such as the condition of crops, soil, rainfall, and droughts. It can then transmit this information to ground stations on the earth for better use.”（太空计划还可以间接地解决贫困和世界饥饿问题。例如，如果人类应用技术，大片土地可以得到更好的利用。最有效的工具是人造地球卫星。它可以在很短的时间内筛选土地面积，显示有用的措施，如作物状况、土壤、降雨和干旱。然后，它可以将这些信息传输到地球上的地面站，以便更好地使用。）可知，太空计划利用人造地球卫星造福农作物生产来帮助解决贫困和世界饥饿问题。故选A。
34．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“With the advancement of space technology, it will be wise to use and explore the vast potential of other planets, such as the availability of mining resources on asteroids or other planets.”（随着太空技术的进步，利用和探索其他行星的巨大潜力将是明智的，例如小行星或其他行星上的采矿资源的可用性。）可推知，作者对在其他星球上开采资源这一行为认为是有必要的。故选C。
35．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Should humans explore space? If you ask me, I’ll definitely give a positive answer.(人类应该探索太空吗？如果你问我，我一定会给你肯定的答复)”以及最后一段“For the exploration of the universe, perhaps the most advantageous of all is that it will unite us to work together for a common purpose, regardless of our differences.(对于宇宙的探索来说，也许最有利的是它将把我们团结起来，为了一个共同的目标而努力，不管我们有什么分歧)”结合文章主要讲的是人类是否应该探索太空为此话题而展开的讨论，论述了探索太空的重要性。可知，A选项“为什么太空探索很重要？”最符合文章标题。故选A。

语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了“第三文化孩子”这一概念以及这种跨文化经历给孩子带来的优势和弊端。
56．答案　totally
解析　考查副词。空格后different意为“不同的”，形容词词性，应用副词修饰，故填totally。
57．答案　was used
解析　考查时态、语态和主谓一致。根据句中in the 1960s可知，句子描述的是过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时；句中The term和use之间为被动关系，故应用一般过去时的被动语态。
58．答案　researching
解析　考查省略句。空格处为while引导的时间状语从句的省略，句子主语She与research之间为逻辑上的主动关系，故应用现在分词。
59．答案　from
解析　考查固定短语。benefit from从……中获益。
60．答案　difficulties
解析　考查名词复数。句中many意为“许多的”，后接可数名词复数形式。故填difficulties。
61．答案　themselves
解析　考查代词。adapt oneself to...使自己适应或习惯于……。故填themselves。
62．答案　to develop
解析　考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知，it作形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面的动词不定式。
63．答案　easier
解析　考查形容词比较级。根据句意和句中关键词than可知，句中把“移居到一个新的国家”和“回到自己的祖国”进行对比，应用比较级。
64．答案　where
解析　考查定语从句。根据句意和句子结构可知，此处为定语从句，先行词为country，在从句中作地点状语，故应用关系副词where引导从句。
65．答案　or
解析　考查连词。根据句中didn’t可知，句子为否定句，句中TV shows和fashion trends为并列关系，即对当前的电视节目“和”时尚潮流一无所知，否定句中应用连词or连接并列成分。

Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
