When you step off the elevator on the fourth floor of Kentucky Children’s Hospital (KCH), you’re greeted by a magical unicorn (独角兽) in a combination of greens, blues, and purples.
It is an art piece created by the staff of KCH and UK Arts in Health Care. This unicorn roughly five feet tall and six feet wide, is made up of nothing but thousands of vial (药水瓶) caps, oral injector caps, and tubes to create an image of a unicorn, silently greeting and comforting every patient and visitor.
The idea for this unicorn was inspired by Tilda Shalof, a nurse in Canada who spent nearly 30 years collecting abandoned medical plastic to create a colorful creature. KCH nurses approached the Child Life staff about creating something analogous for their hospital. The staff agreed, and collection of plastic began.
Soon the collection numbered in the thousands, but the question remained — what would this become? After many meetings and discussions, KCH staff settled on the idea of a unicorn. After all, unicorns become the source where all dreamy thoughts can blossom. Meeting a unicorn and making friends with it could be so appealing to children. More than stories about the healing (治愈) power, for children, a unicorn might even have the magic power to change anything.
Lexington artist Christine Kuhn joined the team to provide guidance on the design and construction process, but the work was done entirely by KCH staff who volunteered their time. “As the unicorn started to take shape, it became even clearer that many hands were present in the artwork,” said Joey Burke, a nurse ethicist. “Several music therapists asked if they could add a guitar pick and a member of the maintenance crew added a wire nut. In the end, medical waste became fantastic as the unicorn took shape.”
When completed, this grand creature needed a name, so a contest was held among KCH staff and patients. The name with the most votes was Unity “MoonPie” McSparkles.
4. What is special about the art piece displayed in KCH?
A. It is small in size and easy to carry.
B. It involves many variations in color.
C. It is composed entirely of hospital plastic waste.
D. It is a joint effort of the Child Life staff and patients.
5. What does the underlined word “analogous” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A. Similar. B. Necessary. C. Meaningful. D. Challenging.
6. Why did KCH staff decide to make a unicorn?
A. It inspires children’s innovation.
B. It symbolizes hope, healing, and magic.
C. It appears in many KCH members’ dreams.
D. It helps strike up friendships among patients.
7. What do Joey Burke’s words in Paragraph 5 imply?
A. Some members opposed reusing medical waste.
B. The design of the unicorn was a bit complicated.
C. The staff were enthusiastic about the unicorn work.
D. The collection of medical waste was time-consuming.
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了肯塔基儿童医院的护士Tilda Shalo收集废弃的医用塑料，在医院四楼电梯处设计了一只神奇的独角兽，默默地问候和安慰每一位患者和来访者。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“This unicorn roughly five feet tall and six feet wide, is made up of nothing but thousands of vial (药水瓶) caps, oral injector caps, and tubes to create an image of a unicorn, silently greeting and comforting every patient and visitor.(这只独角兽大约5英尺高，6英尺宽，由数千个瓶盖、口腔注射器盖和管子组成，塑造了独角兽的形象，默默地问候和安慰每一位患者和来访者)”可知，这只独角兽的独特之处是完全由医院的塑料垃圾组成，故选C项。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段上文“The idea for this unicorn was inspired by Tilda Shalof, a nurse in Canada who spent nearly 30 years collecting abandoned medical plastic to create a colorful creature. KCH nurses approached the Child Life staff about creating something(这只独角兽的想法受到了加拿大护士Tilda Shalof的启发，她花了近30年的时间收集废弃的医用塑料，创造了一个五颜六色的生物。KCH的护士们与儿童生命组织的工作人员接洽，希望为他们的医院创造……)”可知，加拿大护士Tilda Shalof之前创造过一个五颜六色的生物，可推理出现在她要为医院创造一个差不多的东西，划线词的含义应为“类似的”含义，故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“After all, unicorns become the source where all dreamy thoughts can blossom. Meeting a unicorn and making friends with it could be so appealing to children. More than stories about the healing (治愈) power, for children, a unicorn might even have the magic power to change anything.(毕竟，独角兽成为了所有梦幻思想绽放的源泉。遇到独角兽并与它交朋友对孩子们来说可能很有吸引力。对于孩子们来说，独角兽甚至可能拥有改变任何事情的魔力，而不仅仅是关于治愈力量的故事)”可推理出，独角兽象征着希望、治愈和神奇，故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“As the unicorn started to take shape, it became even clearer that many hands were present in the artwork,” said Joey Burke, a nurse ethicist. “Several music therapists asked if they could add a guitar pick and a member of the maintenance crew added a wire nut. In the end, medical waste became fantastic as the unicorn took shape.(“随着独角兽开始成形，愈加清晰的是艺术品制作过程出现了许多帮手。几位音乐治疗师问他们是否可以加一个吉他拨片，一名维修人员加了一个金属丝螺母。最后，随着独角兽的形成，医疗废物变成了棒极了的艺术品”)”可知，各行各业的人都参与了制作过程，可推理出工作人员对独角兽的工作充满热情，故选C项。

Jinli Street in Chengdu, Sichuan Province has recently been chosen as one of the world’s most beautiful streets by CNN Travel. Altogether 21 are chosen, including Convent Avenue in New York City, the U. S., Flask Walk in London, England, and the Philosopher’s Walk in Kyoto, Japan.
Jinli Street is located to the east of the Wuhou Temple, the most famous Three Kingdoms Period relic museum in China. It’s recorded that as early as the Qin Dynasty,Jinli Street was the most famous place for baldachin—a rich cloth. And it was one of the busiest commercial areas during the Shu Kingdom, when it was known as the “First Street of the Shu Kingdom”. In order to bring back its prosperity of former days, it was rebuilt and was opened to the public in October of 2004. Since then, visitors from home and abroad have come here to relax, admire the traditional-style buildings, and taste local snacks.
The street winds through Chengdu for a length of 350 meters. By mixing the culture of the Three Kingdoms Period with local customs of Sichuan, the buildings on both sides including teahouses, stores and hotels, which look pleasingly historic, are modeled on the architectural style of a traditional old town in western Sichuan Province from the Qing Dynasty.
Walking down the street, you will find many old-world stores. All of these stores have their own style but also have one thing in common:no matter how busy the place is, the stores are peaceful and relaxing. Most of the special local products can be found here.
Outside the stores, the stands are busier but equally attractive. You can find local artists putting on funny shows. Some traditional artworks made by skilled workmen are sold here. From these artworks, you will get a taste of the true life of local people and find something about China’s past in the modern city.
8. Why was Jinli Street rebuilt?
A. To create a political center.
B. To gain its popularity again.
C. To help visitors relax and eat snacks.
D. To make it the world’s most beautiful street.
9. How were the buildings along the street designed?
A. By combining different cultures.
B. By imitating the style of modern town.
C. By presenting the history of the street.
D By following Qin Dynasty’s architecture.
10. Which of the following can best describe the old-world stores?
A. Plain. B. Modern. C. Unique. D. Restful.
11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A Jinli Street—A place to recall history
B. Jinli Street—First Street of the Shu Kingdom
C. Jinli Street—Rebuilt and opened to the public
D. Jinli Street—One of the world’s most beautiful streets
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. D

【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“By mixing the culture of the Three Kingdoms Period with local customs of Sichuan, the buildings on both sides including teahouses, stores and hotels, which look pleasingly historic, are modeled on the architectural style of a traditional old town in western Sichuan Province from the Qing Dynasty.(通过将三国时期的文化与四川的风土人情相结合，两侧的建筑，包括茶馆、商店和酒店，看起来历史悠久，模仿了清代四川省西部一个传统古镇的建筑风格)”可知，沿街建筑的设计组合了不同的文化，故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“All of these stores have their own style but also have one thing in common: no matter how busy the place is, the stores are peaceful and relaxing.(所有这些商店都有自己的风格，但也有一个共同点：无论多么繁忙，商店都是宁静和放松的)”可知，这些商店共同特点是平静、放松，故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Jinli Street in Chengdu, Sichuan Province has recently been chosen as one of the world’s most beautiful streets by CNN Travel.( 四川省成都市的锦里街最近被美国有线电视新闻网旅游频道评选为世界上最美丽的街道之一)”、第二段“In order to bring back its prosperity of former days, it was rebuilt and was opened to the public in October of 2004.( 为了恢复昔日的繁荣，它进行了重建，并于2004年10月向公众开放)”以及最后一段“From these artworks, you will get a taste of the true life of local people and find something about China’s past in the modern city(从这些艺术品中，你将体验当地人的真实生活，并在现代城市中找到一些关于中国过去的东西)”可知文章在开头提出了锦里街被选为世界上最美丽的街道之一，后面段落对这一话题进行了详细解解释说明，因此本文的最佳标题为“锦里街— 世界上最漂亮的大街之一”，故选D项。

Curiosity affects everything from our relationships to our education, but it’s not easy to study it. With the help of Wikipedia though, researchers have now done just that, exploring two main types of curiosity.
The resulting study was able to divide the individuals into two previously identified types, as far as curiosity goes: the ‘busybody’ who explores a lot of diverse information, and the ‘hunter’ who stays on a more focused track when it comes to gaining knowledge.
“Wikipedia allowed both introverts (内向) and extroverts to have equal opportunity in curious practice, a limitation in other studies of curiosity, while the ad-free search engine allowed individuals to truly be captains of their own curiosity ships,” says biophysicist Daņielle Bassett, from the University of Pennsylvania.
By recording pages as nodes (节点) and analysing how closely they were related, Bassett and her colleagues were able to find both busybodies and hunters in their pool of volunteers — those who tended to jump all around Wikipedia and those who were more likely to stay on closely related pages.
However, the participants didn’t always stick to one type of behaviour or the other, and to find out why the researchers used a wellbeing questionnaire given to the participants before the study began, covering topics like seeking out social interaction and tolerating stress. Based on the surveys, a need to fill specific knowledge gaps seemed to drive hunter-style behaviour, while a desire to seek out brand new information was an indicator of a busybody-style of Wikipedia browsing (浏览) — taking larger leaps (跳跃) between nodes or pages. “We assume that a switch from hunter to busybody style might arise due to sensation seeking, or the tendency to pursue novel and exciting Information,” says Bassett.
These findings can be useful in a number of ways, including in informing approaches to teaching. Curiosity is also linked to emotional wellbeing: people who are more curious tend to be more satisfied with life and less anxious. By making sure information is available in ways that are accessible, we can encourage curiosity and promote contentment at the same time.
12. Why did the researchers use Wikipedia to do their study?
A. It could arouse a higher level of curiosity.
B. It charged no fees for browsing information.
C. It enabled introverts to switch to extroverts.
D. It caused no disturbance to study participants.
13. What did the researchers find out about busybodies?
A. They took smaller leaps between pages.
B. They tended to browse loosely connected information.
C. They were anxious to narrow specific knowledge gaps.
D. They were more likely to stick to their type of behavior.
14. What may drive hunters to become busybodies?
A. The desire to seek novelty.
B. A reduction in sensation seeking.
C. A wish to know like-minded individuals.
D. The need to dive deeply into a certain topic.
15. What’s the consequence of promoting people’s curiosity?
A. Well-rounded individuals.
B. Increased feelings of contentment.
C. Greater ability to figure out problems.
D. More chances to become top teachers.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章揭示了在维基百科的帮助下研究者所做的关于两种主要的好奇心类型的研究，并得出结论：培养好奇心有助于人们焦虑的减轻和生活满足感的增加。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段““Wikipedia allowed both introverts (内向) and extroverts to have equal opportunity in curious practice, a limitation in other studies of curiosity, while the ad-tree search engine allowed individuals to truly be captains of their own curiosity ships,” says biophysicist Daņielle Bassett, from the University of Pennsylvania.(“维基百科允许内向者和外向者在好奇心实践中有平等的机会，这是其他好奇心研究的局限，而无广告搜索引擎允许个人真正成为自己好奇心船的船长，”宾夕法尼亚大学的生物物理学家Daņielle Bassett说)”可知，他们使用维基百科进行这项研究的一个原因是，维基百科上没有广告，参与研究的人员可以做自己好奇心的主人来进行网页浏览。由此推知，维基百科不会对参与研究的人员好奇心形成干扰。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“the ‘busybody’ who explores a lot of diverse information(探索大量不同信息的“好事的人”)”及第五段“while a desire to seek out brand new information was an indicator of a busybody-style of Wikipedia browsing (浏览) — taking larger leaps (跳跃) between nodes or pages.(而寻求全新信息的愿望是维基百科浏览的好事的人的一个标志——在节点或页面之间发生了更大的跳跃)”可知，好事的人喜欢跳转到不同的页面去探索大量信息。由此可知，他们倾向于浏览松散连接的信息。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段““We assume that a switch from hunter to busybody style might arise due to sensation seeking, or the tendency to pursue novel and exciting Information,” says Bassett.(“我们认为，从猎人风格到好事风格的转变可能是由于寻求感觉，或者追求新颖和令人兴奋的信息的倾向，”巴塞特说)”可知，对于寻求新奇的渴望可能促使猎人风格到好事者风格的转变。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Curiosity is also linked to emotional wellbeing: people who are more curious tend to be more satisfied with life and less anxious.(好奇心也与情绪健康有关：好奇心更强的人往往对生活更满意，焦虑更少)”可知，好奇心越强越会使人获得更多满足感。由此推知，激发人们的好奇心会增强人们的满足感。故选B项。

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了古籍修复工作者宋璟的工作。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：除了欣赏这些历史卷中隐藏的智慧，她还关注它们是如何装订和呈现的。hide(隐藏)作后置定语修饰名词the wisdom，是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语the wisdom之间是被动关系，应用过去分词表被动。故填hidden。
【37题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意：除了欣赏这些历史卷中隐藏的智慧，她还关注它们是如何装订和呈现的。空格后是宾语从句，结合句意，表示“如何……”，用连接副词how引导该宾语从句，how在从句中作方式状语。故填how。
38题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：“这更像是我工作的一种习惯，”34岁的宋说。毕业后不久，她就爱上了北京中国国家图书馆古籍修复部的工作。动词短语fall in love with“爱上……”是定语从句中谓语，与主语who(指代先行词Song)之间是主动关系，结合时间状语“soon after her graduation”可知，讲述过去的事情应用一般过去时态。故填fell。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：这需要研究和挖掘她以前从未见过的独特装订方法，同时评估将这些纸珍品展现出来的大师的技能。分析句子可知，提示词与studying和digging是并列关系，用动名词形式作宾语。故填evaluating。
【40题详解】
考查名词。句意：您可以从纸张的质地和颜色的一致性程度来判断这种技术。介词of后用名词作宾语。故填consistency。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意：中国国家图书馆收藏了大约300万本古书，在中国，古书被定义为1911年之前的手稿、书籍和文件，1911年是中国最后一位皇帝退出历史的一年。be home to...是固定搭配，意为“是……的所在地”。故填to。
【42题详解】
考查动词时态语态和主谓一致。句意：中国国家图书馆收藏了大约300万本古书，在中国，古书被定义为1911年之前的手稿、书籍和文件，1911年是中国最后一位皇帝退出历史的一年。define(给……下定义)是定语从句中谓语动词，与主语which(指代先行词ancient books)之间是被动关系，结合句意，陈述一般性事实，用一般现在时态，又因主语是复数名词，谓语动词也用复数形式。故填are defined。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意：中国国家图书馆收藏了大约300万本古书，在中国，古书被定义为1911年之前的手稿、书籍和文件，1911年是中国最后一位皇帝退出历史的一年。句中指“中国最后一位皇帝退出历史的那一年”，特指，用定冠词the限定。故填the。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意：在图书馆一楼的这个工作室外面，寒来暑往，但对宋和她的修复人员来说，时间是相对的。他们的工作不是用“年”来计，而是用“一生”来计。根据下文可知，她们的时间概念与普通人不一样，上下文之间有转折关系，用连词but连接两个分句。故填but。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意：一天又一天，10多名专家全神贯注地处理和修复这些旧书。提示词修饰形容词absorbed，用副词fully作状语，意为“完全地”。故填fully。

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。
Lost But Not Forgotten
Dad said this could happen. I never believed him. But he was right. So here I am, right in the middle of it. All alone. No one to help me but myself. Two questions come to mind as I sit under this tree, freezing in the snow. How did I get here, and why me?
The first answer is pretty simple. I got lost. Actually it’s more complicated than that. I didn’t pay attention to the boundary signs. I thought the snow looked pretty good. So I told my friend Benito that I’d meet him at the bottom of the hill in twenty minutes. How was I to know a blizzard (暴风雪) was coming? How was I to know that my tracks would disappear?
As for the second question, the answer is obvious. Why me? Because I’m always doing stupid things. Opening my mouth when I should keep it shut. Breaking things I shouldn’t be touching. And in this case, wandering off where I had no business going.
If Dad were here, I know exactly what he’d be saying. I told you this would happen, Deke. Now what are you going to do about it?
The snow just won’t stop falling. It’s getting harder to see, and I’m tired of walking. I’m tired of yelling. No one will hear me. So now I’m sitting under a tree, watching the snow pile up on my clothes. I can barely see my snowboard. It’s a gray shadow in a curtain of white.
What would it be like, I wonder, freezing to death? Don’t just sit there. Build a cave. That’s what Dad would say. But he died in a hospital bed, so he can’t say anything to me anymore. Build a cave. “With what?” I say. “I don’t have a tool. My hands are freezing. There must be something you can use. I look around. All I see are snow-covered trees. Come on, Deke. Use your head. “Like I’m going to dig a cave with my head? I don’t think so.” Then it hits me. The snowboards. I get up. Look for the side of a hill. “I know. I know”.
注意：
1.续写的词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I start to dig.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Now it’s too dark to see, but I think the cave is finished.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
I start to dig. The snowboard works OK. My gloves are wet. After a while my hands feel like wooden blocks. It’s time to take a rest. I’m kind of sleepy. Don’t stop. Keep digging the cave. You need shelter from the wind. My eyes open. There’s hardly any light. A wind has come up. It’s rolling up snow in my face.“OK, I’ll keep digging. But only for a while.”Keep digging until you’re done. That’s what Dad would have said. Clean your room. Finish your math. Don’t stop until you’re done.
Now it’s too dark to see, but I think the cave is finished. With wind blowing outside, I curl up into a ball and gradually close my eyes. Wake up. You forgot to make a hole for air. My eyes open. I stretch out, my boots punching through snow. A cold burst of air rushes in. I breathe deeply, then sleep again. Deke. Get up. You’ll miss the bus. I hear the bus. It’s coming. There is a familiar sound of snowmobiles. My eyes open and I explode out of the cave. The sun is shining. I see some persons wearing orange jackets. I’m saved. Thank you Dad!

When you step off the elevator on the fourth floor of Kentucky Children’s Hospital (KCH), you’re greeted by a magical unicorn (独角兽) in a combination of greens, blues, and purples.
It is an art piece created by the staff of KCH and UK Arts in Health Care. This unicorn roughly five feet tall and six feet wide, is made up of nothing but thousands of vial (药水瓶) caps, oral injector caps, and tubes to create an image of a unicorn, silently greeting and comforting every patient and visitor.
The idea for this unicorn was inspired by Tilda Shalof, a nurse in Canada who spent nearly 30 years collecting abandoned medical plastic to create a colorful creature. KCH nurses approached the Child Life staff about creating something analogous for their hospital. The staff agreed, and collection of plastic began.
Soon the collection numbered in the thousands, but the question remained — what would this become? After many meetings and discussions, KCH staff settled on the idea of a unicorn. After all, unicorns become the source where all dreamy thoughts can blossom. Meeting a unicorn and making friends with it could be so appealing to children. More than stories about the healing (治愈) power, for children, a unicorn might even have the magic power to change anything.
Lexington artist Christine Kuhn joined the team to provide guidance on the design and construction process, but the work was done entirely by KCH staff who volunteered their time. “As the unicorn started to take shape, it became even clearer that many hands were present in the artwork,” said Joey Burke, a nurse ethicist. “Several music therapists asked if they could add a guitar pick and a member of the maintenance crew added a wire nut. In the end, medical waste became fantastic as the unicorn took shape.”
When completed, this grand creature needed a name, so a contest was held among KCH staff and patients. The name with the most votes was Unity “MoonPie” McSparkles.
4. What is special about the art piece displayed in KCH?
A. It is small in size and easy to carry.
B. It involves many variations in color.
C. It is composed entirely of hospital plastic waste.
D. It is a joint effort of the Child Life staff and patients.
5. What does the underlined word “analogous” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A. Similar. B. Necessary. C. Meaningful. D. Challenging.
6. Why did KCH staff decide to make a unicorn?
A. It inspires children’s innovation.
B. It symbolizes hope, healing, and magic.
C. It appears in many KCH members’ dreams.
D. It helps strike up friendships among patients.
7. What do Joey Burke’s words in Paragraph 5 imply?
A. Some members opposed reusing medical waste.
B. The design of the unicorn was a bit complicated.
C. The staff were enthusiastic about the unicorn work.
D. The collection of medical waste was time-consuming.
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了肯塔基儿童医院的护士Tilda Shalo收集废弃的医用塑料，在医院四楼电梯处设计了一只神奇的独角兽，默默地问候和安慰每一位患者和来访者。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“This unicorn roughly five feet tall and six feet wide, is made up of nothing but thousands of vial (药水瓶) caps, oral injector caps, and tubes to create an image of a unicorn, silently greeting and comforting every patient and visitor.(这只独角兽大约5英尺高，6英尺宽，由数千个瓶盖、口腔注射器盖和管子组成，塑造了独角兽的形象，默默地问候和安慰每一位患者和来访者)”可知，这只独角兽的独特之处是完全由医院的塑料垃圾组成，故选C项。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段上文“The idea for this unicorn was inspired by Tilda Shalof, a nurse in Canada who spent nearly 30 years collecting abandoned medical plastic to create a colorful creature. KCH nurses approached the Child Life staff about creating something(这只独角兽的想法受到了加拿大护士Tilda Shalof的启发，她花了近30年的时间收集废弃的医用塑料，创造了一个五颜六色的生物。KCH的护士们与儿童生命组织的工作人员接洽，希望为他们的医院创造……)”可知，加拿大护士Tilda Shalof之前创造过一个五颜六色的生物，可推理出现在她要为医院创造一个差不多的东西，划线词的含义应为“类似的”含义，故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“After all, unicorns become the source where all dreamy thoughts can blossom. Meeting a unicorn and making friends with it could be so appealing to children. More than stories about the healing (治愈) power, for children, a unicorn might even have the magic power to change anything.(毕竟，独角兽成为了所有梦幻思想绽放的源泉。遇到独角兽并与它交朋友对孩子们来说可能很有吸引力。对于孩子们来说，独角兽甚至可能拥有改变任何事情的魔力，而不仅仅是关于治愈力量的故事)”可推理出，独角兽象征着希望、治愈和神奇，故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“As the unicorn started to take shape, it became even clearer that many hands were present in the artwork,” said Joey Burke, a nurse ethicist. “Several music therapists asked if they could add a guitar pick and a member of the maintenance crew added a wire nut. In the end, medical waste became fantastic as the unicorn took shape.(“随着独角兽开始成形，愈加清晰的是艺术品制作过程出现了许多帮手。几位音乐治疗师问他们是否可以加一个吉他拨片，一名维修人员加了一个金属丝螺母。最后，随着独角兽的形成，医疗废物变成了棒极了的艺术品”)”可知，各行各业的人都参与了制作过程，可推理出工作人员对独角兽的工作充满热情，故选C项。

Jinli Street in Chengdu, Sichuan Province has recently been chosen as one of the world’s most beautiful streets by CNN Travel. Altogether 21 are chosen, including Convent Avenue in New York City, the U. S., Flask Walk in London, England, and the Philosopher’s Walk in Kyoto, Japan.
Jinli Street is located to the east of the Wuhou Temple, the most famous Three Kingdoms Period relic museum in China. It’s recorded that as early as the Qin Dynasty,Jinli Street was the most famous place for baldachin—a rich cloth. And it was one of the busiest commercial areas during the Shu Kingdom, when it was known as the “First Street of the Shu Kingdom”. In order to bring back its prosperity of former days, it was rebuilt and was opened to the public in October of 2004. Since then, visitors from home and abroad have come here to relax, admire the traditional-style buildings, and taste local snacks.
The street winds through Chengdu for a length of 350 meters. By mixing the culture of the Three Kingdoms Period with local customs of Sichuan, the buildings on both sides including teahouses, stores and hotels, which look pleasingly historic, are modeled on the architectural style of a traditional old town in western Sichuan Province from the Qing Dynasty.
Walking down the street, you will find many old-world stores. All of these stores have their own style but also have one thing in common:no matter how busy the place is, the stores are peaceful and relaxing. Most of the special local products can be found here.
Outside the stores, the stands are busier but equally attractive. You can find local artists putting on funny shows. Some traditional artworks made by skilled workmen are sold here. From these artworks, you will get a taste of the true life of local people and find something about China’s past in the modern city.
8. Why was Jinli Street rebuilt?
A. To create a political center.
B. To gain its popularity again.
C. To help visitors relax and eat snacks.
D. To make it the world’s most beautiful street.
9. How were the buildings along the street designed?
A. By combining different cultures.
B. By imitating the style of modern town.
C. By presenting the history of the street.
D By following Qin Dynasty’s architecture.
10. Which of the following can best describe the old-world stores?
A. Plain. B. Modern. C. Unique. D. Restful.
11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A Jinli Street—A place to recall history
B. Jinli Street—First Street of the Shu Kingdom
C. Jinli Street—Rebuilt and opened to the public
D. Jinli Street—One of the world’s most beautiful streets

【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“All of these stores have their own style but also have one thing in common: no matter how busy the place is, the stores are peaceful and relaxing.(所有这些商店都有自己的风格，但也有一个共同点：无论多么繁忙，商店都是宁静和放松的)”可知，这些商店共同特点是平静、放松，故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Jinli Street in Chengdu, Sichuan Province has recently been chosen as one of the world’s most beautiful streets by CNN Travel.( 四川省成都市的锦里街最近被美国有线电视新闻网旅游频道评选为世界上最美丽的街道之一)”、第二段“In order to bring back its prosperity of former days, it was rebuilt and was opened to the public in October of 2004.( 为了恢复昔日的繁荣，它进行了重建，并于2004年10月向公众开放)”以及最后一段“From these artworks, you will get a taste of the true life of local people and find something about China’s past in the modern city(从这些艺术品中，你将体验当地人的真实生活，并在现代城市中找到一些关于中国过去的东西)”可知文章在开头提出了锦里街被选为世界上最美丽的街道之一，后面段落对这一话题进行了详细解解释说明，因此本文的最佳标题为“锦里街— 世界上最漂亮的大街之一”，故选D项。

Curiosity affects everything from our relationships to our education, but it’s not easy to study it. With the help of Wikipedia though, researchers have now done just that, exploring two main types of curiosity.
The resulting study was able to divide the individuals into two previously identified types, as far as curiosity goes: the ‘busybody’ who explores a lot of diverse information, and the ‘hunter’ who stays on a more focused track when it comes to gaining knowledge.
“Wikipedia allowed both introverts (内向) and extroverts to have equal opportunity in curious practice, a limitation in other studies of curiosity, while the ad-free search engine allowed individuals to truly be captains of their own curiosity ships,” says biophysicist Daņielle Bassett, from the University of Pennsylvania.
By recording pages as nodes (节点) and analysing how closely they were related, Bassett and her colleagues were able to find both busybodies and hunters in their pool of volunteers — those who tended to jump all around Wikipedia and those who were more likely to stay on closely related pages.
However, the participants didn’t always stick to one type of behaviour or the other, and to find out why the researchers used a wellbeing questionnaire given to the participants before the study began, covering topics like seeking out social interaction and tolerating stress. Based on the surveys, a need to fill specific knowledge gaps seemed to drive hunter-style behaviour, while a desire to seek out brand new information was an indicator of a busybody-style of Wikipedia browsing (浏览) — taking larger leaps (跳跃) between nodes or pages. “We assume that a switch from hunter to busybody style might arise due to sensation seeking, or the tendency to pursue novel and exciting Information,” says Bassett.
These findings can be useful in a number of ways, including in informing approaches to teaching. Curiosity is also linked to emotional wellbeing: people who are more curious tend to be more satisfied with life and less anxious. By making sure information is available in ways that are accessible, we can encourage curiosity and promote contentment at the same time.
12. Why did the researchers use Wikipedia to do their study?
A. It could arouse a higher level of curiosity.
B. It charged no fees for browsing information.
C. It enabled introverts to switch to extroverts.
D. It caused no disturbance to study participants.
13. What did the researchers find out about busybodies?
A. They took smaller leaps between pages.
B. They tended to browse loosely connected information.
C. They were anxious to narrow specific knowledge gaps.
D. They were more likely to stick to their type of behavior.
14. What may drive hunters to become busybodies?
A. The desire to seek novelty.
B. A reduction in sensation seeking.
C. A wish to know like-minded individuals.
D. The need to dive deeply into a certain topic.
15. What’s the consequence of promoting people’s curiosity?
A. Well-rounded individuals.
B. Increased feelings of contentment.
C. Greater ability to figure out problems.
D. More chances to become top teachers.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章揭示了在维基百科的帮助下研究者所做的关于两种主要的好奇心类型的研究，并得出结论：培养好奇心有助于人们焦虑的减轻和生活满足感的增加。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段““Wikipedia allowed both introverts (内向) and extroverts to have equal opportunity in curious practice, a limitation in other studies of curiosity, while the ad-tree search engine allowed individuals to truly be captains of their own curiosity ships,” says biophysicist Daņielle Bassett, from the University of Pennsylvania.(“维基百科允许内向者和外向者在好奇心实践中有平等的机会，这是其他好奇心研究的局限，而无广告搜索引擎允许个人真正成为自己好奇心船的船长，”宾夕法尼亚大学的生物物理学家Daņielle Bassett说)”可知，他们使用维基百科进行这项研究的一个原因是，维基百科上没有广告，参与研究的人员可以做自己好奇心的主人来进行网页浏览。由此推知，维基百科不会对参与研究的人员好奇心形成干扰。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“the ‘busybody’ who explores a lot of diverse information(探索大量不同信息的“好事的人”)”及第五段“while a desire to seek out brand new information was an indicator of a busybody-style of Wikipedia browsing (浏览) — taking larger leaps (跳跃) between nodes or pages.(而寻求全新信息的愿望是维基百科浏览的好事的人的一个标志——在节点或页面之间发生了更大的跳跃)”可知，好事的人喜欢跳转到不同的页面去探索大量信息。由此可知，他们倾向于浏览松散连接的信息。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段““We assume that a switch from hunter to busybody style might arise due to sensation seeking, or the tendency to pursue novel and exciting Information,” says Bassett.(“我们认为，从猎人风格到好事风格的转变可能是由于寻求感觉，或者追求新颖和令人兴奋的信息的倾向，”巴塞特说)”可知，对于寻求新奇的渴望可能促使猎人风格到好事者风格的转变。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Curiosity is also linked to emotional wellbeing: people who are more curious tend to be more satisfied with life and less anxious.(好奇心也与情绪健康有关：好奇心更强的人往往对生活更满意，焦虑更少)”可知，好奇心越强越会使人获得更多满足感。由此推知，激发人们的好奇心会增强人们的满足感。故选B项。

考查宾语从句。句意：除了欣赏这些历史卷中隐藏的智慧，她还关注它们是如何装订和呈现的。空格后是宾语从句，结合句意，表示“如何……”，用连接副词how引导该宾语从句，how在从句中作方式状语。故填how。
38题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：“这更像是我工作的一种习惯，”34岁的宋说。毕业后不久，她就爱上了北京中国国家图书馆古籍修复部的工作。动词短语fall in love with“爱上……”是定语从句中谓语，与主语who(指代先行词Song)之间是主动关系，结合时间状语“soon after her graduation”可知，讲述过去的事情应用一般过去时态。故填fell。

【42题详解】
考查动词时态语态和主谓一致。句意：中国国家图书馆收藏了大约300万本古书，在中国，古书被定义为1911年之前的手稿、书籍和文件，1911年是中国最后一位皇帝退出历史的一年。define(给……下定义)是定语从句中谓语动词，与主语which(指代先行词ancient books)之间是被动关系，结合句意，陈述一般性事实，用一般现在时态，又因主语是复数名词，谓语动词也用复数形式。故填are defined。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意：中国国家图书馆收藏了大约300万本古书，在中国，古书被定义为1911年之前的手稿、书籍和文件，1911年是中国最后一位皇帝退出历史的一年。句中指“中国最后一位皇帝退出历史的那一年”，特指，用定冠词the限定。故填the。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意：在图书馆一楼的这个工作室外面，寒来暑往，但对宋和她的修复人员来说，时间是相对的。他们的工作不是用“年”来计，而是用“一生”来计。根据下文可知，她们的时间概念与普通人不一样，上下文之间有转折关系，用连词but连接两个分句。故填but。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意：一天又一天，10多名专家全神贯注地处理和修复这些旧书。提示词修饰形容词absorbed，用副词fully作状语，意为“完全地”。故填fully。

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。
Lost But Not Forgotten
Dad said this could happen. I never believed him. But he was right. So here I am, right in the middle of it. All alone. No one to help me but myself. Two questions come to mind as I sit under this tree, freezing in the snow. How did I get here, and why me?
The first answer is pretty simple. I got lost. Actually it’s more complicated than that. I didn’t pay attention to the boundary signs. I thought the snow looked pretty good. So I told my friend Benito that I’d meet him at the bottom of the hill in twenty minutes. How was I to know a blizzard (暴风雪) was coming? How was I to know that my tracks would disappear?
As for the second question, the answer is obvious. Why me? Because I’m always doing stupid things. Opening my mouth when I should keep it shut. Breaking things I shouldn’t be touching. And in this case, wandering off where I had no business going.
If Dad were here, I know exactly what he’d be saying. I told you this would happen, Deke. Now what are you going to do about it?
The snow just won’t stop falling. It’s getting harder to see, and I’m tired of walking. I’m tired of yelling. No one will hear me. So now I’m sitting under a tree, watching the snow pile up on my clothes. I can barely see my snowboard. It’s a gray shadow in a curtain of white.
What would it be like, I wonder, freezing to death? Don’t just sit there. Build a cave. That’s what Dad would say. But he died in a hospital bed, so he can’t say anything to me anymore. Build a cave. “With what?” I say. “I don’t have a tool. My hands are freezing. There must be something you can use. I look around. All I see are snow-covered trees. Come on, Deke. Use your head. “Like I’m going to dig a cave with my head? I don’t think so.” Then it hits me. The snowboards. I get up. Look for the side of a hill. “I know. I know”.
注意：
1.续写的词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I start to dig.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Now it’s too dark to see, but I think the cave is finished.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
I start to dig. The snowboard works OK. My gloves are wet. After a while my hands feel like wooden blocks. It’s time to take a rest. I’m kind of sleepy. Don’t stop. Keep digging the cave. You need shelter from the wind. My eyes open. There’s hardly any light. A wind has come up. It’s rolling up snow in my face.“OK, I’ll keep digging. But only for a while.”Keep digging until you’re done. That’s what Dad would have said. Clean your room. Finish your math. Don’t stop until you’re done.
Now it’s too dark to see, but I think the cave is finished. With wind blowing outside, I curl up into a ball and gradually close my eyes. Wake up. You forgot to make a hole for air. My eyes open. I stretch out, my boots punching through snow. A cold burst of air rushes in. I breathe deeply, then sleep again. Deke. Get up. You’ll miss the bus. I hear the bus. It’s coming. There is a familiar sound of snowmobiles. My eyes open and I explode out of the cave. The sun is shining. I see some persons wearing orange jackets. I’m saved. Thank you Dad!

①由第一段首句内容“我开始挖。”可知，第一段可描写作者开始用滑雪板挖洞和他的心理活动。
②由第二段首句内容“现在太黑了，看不见，但我想洞穴已经完工了。”可知，第二段可描写作者地雪洞里熬过了一夜并获救。
