A
Wanted: A Personal Assistant
I’m a very busy woman, looking for an assistant to help me with certain important tasks. This is not your average assistant job. What I’m looking for is someone to take care of some of my more personal business so that I may focus on my true passion: grocery shopping. Please apply if and only if you are willing and able to accomplish the following tasks:
Work I would love to have a nine-to-five job. However, I find sitting in an office all day unbearable. An ideal assistant would secure a high-paying office job and excel in that setting, even going so far as to eagerly accept every invitation to after-work drinks.
Go on family vacations I love my family, especially when I don’t have to spend time with them. Thus, I will require my employee to attend all family vacations in my place. Since I’ll miss out on spending time with my nephews, a good assistant will live-stream (直播) them for me the entire time while discreetly muting the live-stream whenever they start fighting.
Exercise I am determined to get in better shape but find working out strenuous and tiring. The right candidate will exercise for a minimum of an hour every day and allow me to reap the benefits of his or her vigorous activity.
Eat Just kidding—I love eating!
Date I’m looking for love but find dating tedious and intimidating. Ideally, my employee will get a drink with a potential mate so he or she can do the tiresome work of getting to know someone and deciding whether I’ll like him. If the romantic candidate advances past a third date, I’d be willing to step in and proceed with the relationship from there, excluding birthdays, holidays, and other high-pressure situations.
Have a baby I’m eager to have a child, but being pregnant and giving birth seems hard. Likewise, raising a child seems daunting. I’d prefer to spend an hour or two with my child each day while someone else tackles the incredible responsibility of childrearing. Once my child turns 18, I will happily assume all parenting duties, excluding any financial obligations.
21. What is the author truly interested in?
A. Spending vacations. B. Going shopping.
C. Dating someone. D. Raising children.
22. The personal assistant needs to do the following things for the author EXCEPT ________.
A. working out. B. going to work.
C. accompanying families. D. eating delicious food.
23. What do you think is the purpose of the passage?
A. To warn. B. To inform. C. To amuse. D. To advertise.

For most of her life, Suanne Laqueur’s passion for storytelling was shown on the dance floor.
Although Laqueur began writing at a young age, dancing always took center stage. She majored in dance and theater at Alfred University and taught at her mother’s dance studio in Croton-on-Hudson, New York, for years. But when her mother was ready to retire and an opportunity opened for Laqueur to take over the studio, she realized she had no interest in taking on the business side of her art: “Owning a studio is a lot of work—financially, logistically. I love the teaching, the choreographing(编舞), the staging, but I didn’t want to own it.”
Yet Laqueur’s disinterest in running the studio changed when she became a self-published author. In the fall of 2013, she decided to pursue Self-publishing as a way of sharing her first completed novel with friends and family. During the process, she realized that following her true passion—telling stories through writing—made the business of the art worthwhile, and owning that business meant she could direct her writing career however she chose.
Starting with her second self-published novel, she began investing more time in marketing and building her audience. Her investment paid off. Since 2014, Laqueur, now 49, has self-published six novels, which collectively have hundreds of ratings and reviews on Goodreads. Her 2016 novel An Exaltation of Larks stole the show at the 25th Annual Writer’s Digest Self-Published Book Awards, topping more than 2,300 entries to win the grand prize.
“You have to write the most truthful story to you, and I think self-publishing allows that freedom,’ she says. “If you work with traditional publishing, it’s more about what’s marketable, There are trade-offs, which everyone will tell you, but by self-publishing I have control of the book, I have control of the story, and I’m cool with that.”
24. From Paragraph 2,we can learn that Laqueur _______.
A. wanted to own a publishing house
B. didn’t like teaching dancing in fact
C. was a part-time writer when she was young
D. was interested in running her mother’s studio
25. What made Laqueur change her attitude to business?
A. Her mother’s persuasion. B. Self-publishing her novels.
C. The desire to make money, D. Her own passion toward art.
26. Which of the following can best replace the phrase “stole the show” in Paragraph 4?
A. became a failure. B. was shown to people.
C. got all the attention. D. was accidentally stolen.
27. What can be inferred from what Laqueur’s said?
A. She enjoys the way of self-publishing.
B. She will never use traditional publishing.
C. Traditional publishing only focuses on the market.
D. Self-publishing will replace traditional publishing.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. C 27. A
【解析】

【24题详解】

【27题详解】
推理判断题。依据最后一段“I think self-publishing allows that freedombut by self-publishing I have control of the book, I have control of the story, and I’m cool with that.”可知她喜欢自助出版,故选A。
C
When you were at school, the last thing you probably wanted to do was spend your weekends going to work. There was homework to do, sport to play and fun to have. But our parents probably persuaded us to find a job to earn some money and get some life experience. When I was a teenager I had a paper round: delivering newspapers to people's homes. I then progressed to a Saturday job in a supermarket: stacking shelves and working at the checkout.
Today in the UK you are allowed to work from the age of 13, and many children do take up part-time jobs. It's one of those things that are seen almost as a rite of passage(成人仪式).It's a taste of independence and sometimes a useful thing to put on your CV(简历).Teenagers agree that it teaches valuable lessons about working with adults and also about managing their money.
Some research has shown that not taking up a Saturday or holiday job could be deleterious to a person later on. A 2015 study by the UK Commission on Employment and Skills found that not participating in part-time work at school age had been blamed by employer's organizations for young adults being ill-prepared for full-time employment, but despite this, recent statistics have shown that the number of schoolchildren in the UK with a part-time job has fallen by a fifth in the past five years.
So, does this mean that British teenagers are now afraid of hard work? Probably not. Some experts feel that young people feel going out to work will affect their performance at school, and they are under more pressure now to study hard and get good exam results-and a good job in the long term. However, Geoff Barton, general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, told BBC News that "Properly regulated(控制的)part-time work is a good way of helping young people learn skills that they will need in their working lives." In reality, it's all about getting the right balance between doing part-time work and having enough time to study and rest.
28. How did the author feel about doing part-time jobs on weekends when he was a teenager?
A. Unwilling. B. Interested.
C. Delighted. D. Angry.
29. Which of the following may NOT be the benefit of school children's doing part-time jobs?
A. Learning to be independent. B. Gaining some life experience.
C. Being prepared for future jobs. D. Spending what they earn as they like.
30. What does the underlined word "deleterious" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. valuable. B. harmful.
C. necessary. D. beneficial.
31. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?
A. Students should spend all their time on studies.
B. Students should have as many part-time jobs as possible.
C. Doing part-time jobs must affect students' school results.
D. It's important for students to balance part-time jobs and studies.
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. B 31. D
【解析】

Nearly 20 U.S. states have started carrying out former president Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan, which places limits on carbon dioxide emissions from power plants in an effort to reduce the impacts of climate change. The plan has been in legal limbo (边缘) for the past year. Yet scientists have now calculated another outcome of the policy: harm to crop yields (产量) if the plan is cancelled. Along with carbon pollution, coal-fired power plants spew (喷出) pollutants that form what we know as smog. The contribution of smog to increased rates of asthma (哮喘) and premature deaths was already known. The new research estimates the extent to which smog, under air-pollution policies-4n place before the Clean Power Plan, would limit production in 2020 of four major crops: corn, cotton, potatoes and soybeans.
Led by environmental engineer Shannon L. Capps, now at Drexel University, the team also sketched the extent to which those crop production losses would reduce under three nationwide scenarios (方案). One improved the efficiency of individual power plants. Another modeled a policy similar to the Obama plan, setting state CO2 emissions goals for the electricity department. A third established a tax on carbon emissions, under which emissions fell the most. But the greatest drop in smog-forming pollutants—and greatest gains in crop yields—came from policies such as the Clean Power Plan.
Researchers calculated how well each scenario would reduce the potential productivity loss (PPL) of each crop. PPL is a projected value for 2020 and indicates how much crop growth would suffer because of smog. Scenario 2 most closely agrees with results expected from the Clean Power Plan.
32. What’s the main purpose of The Clean Power Plan?
A. To offer clean power, B. To limit CO2 emissions.
C. To slow climate change. D. To increase crop production.
33. The latest research shows that smog may cause .
A. asthma B. early deaths
C. heart disease D. crop production loss
34. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?
A. Scenario 3 was intended to increase taxes.
B. Scenario 2 increased crop yields most.
C. Scenario 1 didn’t have any effect on crop yields.
D. The three scenarios were made at Drexel University.
35. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. U.S. states restart the Obama’s Plan.
B. The Clean Power Plan was called off.
C. Three scenarios benefit crop yields.
D. Smog does harm to people’s health.
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. B 35. A
【解析】

【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段第一句“Nearly 20 U.S. states have started carrying out former president Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan”,以及后文论证该计划对气候和农作物产量的益处,可知A为最佳标题。

本文就几个方面给读者提出了几条建议来建议人们为自己营造假期氛围,享受生活。
【36题详解】
由本段标题和第一句可知,由于摆脱了每天的压力和紧张,假期给我们的感觉很好。研究甚至表明,假期有助于健康和幸福。该句与上一句构成递进关系,故选项F符合语境。
【37题详解】
本段第一句为设问句,“当你在度假的时候睡得像个婴儿一样,但当你在你的日常生活中保持清醒?”因此该空作为答语,如果是这样,你可能需要检查你的睡眠习惯。故选C。
【38题详解】
根据本段的标题和本段其他几句可知散步有很多好处,作者建议人们多运动。又根据下一句提及的“that exercise”,可知与选项G中“walk around… cities”有呼应关系,故选G。
【39题详解】
本句为标题句。根据本段段意可知,为了减少焦虑、抑郁和肥胖,要养成和家人一起坐下来,每天至少吃一顿饭的假日习惯。故“让吃饭成为一种庆祝”符合题意,故选A。
【40题详解】
根据本段标题句:在自己的城市做一名游客。由上下文逻辑可知,本句与上一句构成转折关系,进入正题,选项E中to be a holidaymaker in the place you live与主题呼应,故选E。
【点睛】七选五的解题技巧之一是根据上下文词汇和逻辑呼应关系来锁定线索。即:要关注空白前后的名词、动词、形容词和副词等,然后在选项中查找与它们相对应的近义词、反义词、同义词、同类词等。其次是一些专有名词,比如说数词、代词、时间、年代、地点/名称等。在本文中,第1小题中的“even”与前一句为递进关系,第2小题中的“If so”与前一句设问,第3小题中的“walk around… cities”与下一句的“that exercise”,第5小题中的but与前一句Part of toe thrill of a holiday is the novelty of discovering a new place and doing new things.的转折,另外“to be a holidaymaker in the place you live”与本段标题Be a tourist in your own city,均有呼应关系。

【解析】
本文为记叙文,简要讲述了金庸先生的生平。
【61题详解】
考查定语从句。根据句子结构关系可知,此句为非限制性定语从句,先行词为Louis Cha ,在定语从句中作主语,用who。
【62题详解】
考查限定词用法。表示顺序的序数词前须加定冠词或者限定词,故填its/the。
【63题详解】
考查谓语动词。本文讲述金庸生平,用一般过去时态,故填was。
【64题详解】
考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处___4___ (write) between 1955 and 1972短语结构作后置定语,动词write与his works之间为被动关系,故填written。
【65题详解】
考查名词复数。由其定语100 million可知,此处名词为复数形式,故填copies。
【66题详解】

【67题详解】

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)
71.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词。
删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。
修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意:1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;
2. 只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。
Have you ever had headache during a test? Have you ever been too concerned about something that you even can’t sleep at night? If so, then you know that stress is. Too much stress can result in angry, depression and other related problems, which we need to take them seriously.
However, not all stress was harmful to you. Some kinds of stress can help you getting things done better, like when you are running towards the finishing line or when you are asking to deliver a speech to your class. Stress sometimes can push you to make full preparations for a test.
The best approach of reducing stress is to have a balanced life. If you get enough sleep, eat proper, take more exercise and have enough fun time, you might feel less stressed.
【答案】headache →headaches
too →so
that →what
angry →anger
去掉them
was →is
getting →get
asking →asked
of →to
proper →properly
【解析】
【分析】
本文为说明文。主要讲述什么是压力,压力的类型和如何缓解压力。战胜压力最好的方式就是保持平衡的生活习惯,按时休息,均衡饮食,坚持锻炼等。
【详解】第1处,考查名词复数。“头疼”的英语表述为have a headache/headaches ,此处headache为可数,故将headache改为headaches。
第2处,考查so…that…结构。此处应用so…that引导结果状语从句,故将too改为so。
第3处,考查what引导名词性从句。句意:如果是这样,那么你就知道什么是压力了。分析句子结构可知,宾语从句中缺少表语成分,应用what充当其宾语,意为“什么”,故将that改为what。
第4处,考查名词。此处应用名词形式作宾语,故将angry改为anger。
第5处,考查定语从句的结构。分析句子结构可知,which引导非限制性定语从句,在从句中作take… seriously的宾语,them多余,故去掉them。
第6处,考查时态。纵览全文可知,本文用一般现在时,故将was改为is。
第7处,考查非谓语动词。help sb.(to) do sth. “帮助某人做某事”,为固定说法,此处用不定式作宾语补足语,故将getting改为get。
第8处,考查被动语态。根据句意逻辑可知,当你被要求在班里做演讲的时候,此处ask与主语you为被动关系,故将asking改为asked。
第9处,考查固定短语搭配。the approach to (doing) sth.,“做某事的方法”,to (doing) sth作后置定语,为固定搭配,故将of改为to。
第10处,考查副词用法。此处修饰动词eat,应用副词形式,故将proper改为properly。
【点睛】本文第3处错误考查what引导名词性从句的用法和与that的区别。
关于what和that引导从句是学生常考常错的一个语法点。它们的具体用法及区别为:
一、引导主语、宾语或表语从句时,what在从句中要充当句子成分;而that引导主语、宾语、表语和同位语从句时,不作任何成分,只起语法连接作用。试比较:
1、That George W. Bush won the presidency once again was what many people hadn't expected. 乔治.布什再次赢得总统大选,这是很多人没有预料到的。
2、It is the same old story of not being grateful for what we have until we lose it.事情往往是这样,失去之物,方知珍惜。
二、一定要记住在定语从句中,根本不用what连接词。所以大家在做题中,如果判定是定语从句,就不要再考虑what了。That 在定语从句中,一般可以作从句的主语,宾语和表语。例如:
1、 Do you still remember the chicken farm ____ we visited three months ago?
「分析」填that。该句为定语从句。用that做从句visit的宾语。
2、He is not the naughty boy that he used to be.他不再是从前那个调皮的男孩了。

【答案】Dear teachers and friends,
I feel greatly honored to give a speech here on behalf of all the exchange students
Living and studying here makes us very fulfilled. During our stay, we have a better understanding of the British life, culture, society and so on, which have not only enriched our knowledge but also broadened our horizon. Apart from that, our abilities including listening, speaking and writing English have also got greatly improved. And it is all the English teachers and classmates here that we should owe many thanks to. Without their help, we couldn’t have achieved so much.
True friendship never ends, so I hope we can keep in touch with each other even after we go back home. And I also sincerely hope that some day you can come to China for a visit.
That’s all! Thank you!
【解析】
首先审题,要求作为学生代表在欢送会上发言,写一篇发言稿。任务中给出的提示信息包含如下内容1.表示感谢; 2.学习的收获和感受; 3.表达祝愿。抓住了这亮点,我们就抓住了文章的核心内容,一定要注意发言稿的用语和格式。其次选用正确的人称和时态,考虑用一般现在时,第一人称来写。然后写出单个句子,使用正确的连词,连句成段。具体来说,写这篇文章时,要注意: 1、提示中的内容比较泛泛,需要适当补充; 2、为使文章层次清楚,可分三个自然段写:第一自然段说明自己很荣幸作为学生代表发言;第二自然段对自己的收获和感受进行总结;第三自然段表示友谊并不会随着自己回国而结束。这篇文章对于考生的综合能力要求较高,要求考生有很强的谋篇布局的能力和组织要点的能力。需要注意紧扣文章主题,给出的要点都需要包括,缺一不可。写作时注意准确运用时态,上下文意思连贯,符合逻辑关系,不能出现文章脱节问题。尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式,同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。
【亮点说明】本篇书面表达要点全面,结构紧凑,是一篇较好的范文。这篇短文使用了大量的短语,为文章增色不少,如: on behalf of代表,Apart from除……之外。还使用了定语从句During our stay, we have a better understanding of the British life, culture, society and so on, which have not only enriched our knowledge but also broadened our horizon.和宾语从句And I also sincerely hope that some day you can come to China for a visit.等多种句式结构,增加了文章的可读性。

A
Wanted: A Personal Assistant
I’m a very busy woman, looking for an assistant to help me with certain important tasks. This is not your average assistant job. What I’m looking for is someone to take care of some of my more personal business so that I may focus on my true passion: grocery shopping. Please apply if and only if you are willing and able to accomplish the following tasks:
Work I would love to have a nine-to-five job. However, I find sitting in an office all day unbearable. An ideal assistant would secure a high-paying office job and excel in that setting, even going so far as to eagerly accept every invitation to after-work drinks.
Go on family vacations I love my family, especially when I don’t have to spend time with them. Thus, I will require my employee to attend all family vacations in my place. Since I’ll miss out on spending time with my nephews, a good assistant will live-stream (直播) them for me the entire time while discreetly muting the live-stream whenever they start fighting.
Exercise I am determined to get in better shape but find working out strenuous and tiring. The right candidate will exercise for a minimum of an hour every day and allow me to reap the benefits of his or her vigorous activity.
Eat Just kidding—I love eating!
Date I’m looking for love but find dating tedious and intimidating. Ideally, my employee will get a drink with a potential mate so he or she can do the tiresome work of getting to know someone and deciding whether I’ll like him. If the romantic candidate advances past a third date, I’d be willing to step in and proceed with the relationship from there, excluding birthdays, holidays, and other high-pressure situations.
Have a baby I’m eager to have a child, but being pregnant and giving birth seems hard. Likewise, raising a child seems daunting. I’d prefer to spend an hour or two with my child each day while someone else tackles the incredible responsibility of childrearing. Once my child turns 18, I will happily assume all parenting duties, excluding any financial obligations.
21. What is the author truly interested in?
A. Spending vacations. B. Going shopping.
C. Dating someone. D. Raising children.
22. The personal assistant needs to do the following things for the author EXCEPT ________.
A. working out. B. going to work.
C. accompanying families. D. eating delicious food.
23. What do you think is the purpose of the passage?
A. To warn. B. To inform. C. To amuse. D. To advertise.

For most of her life, Suanne Laqueur’s passion for storytelling was shown on the dance floor.
Although Laqueur began writing at a young age, dancing always took center stage. She majored in dance and theater at Alfred University and taught at her mother’s dance studio in Croton-on-Hudson, New York, for years. But when her mother was ready to retire and an opportunity opened for Laqueur to take over the studio, she realized she had no interest in taking on the business side of her art: “Owning a studio is a lot of work—financially, logistically. I love the teaching, the choreographing(编舞), the staging, but I didn’t want to own it.”
Yet Laqueur’s disinterest in running the studio changed when she became a self-published author. In the fall of 2013, she decided to pursue Self-publishing as a way of sharing her first completed novel with friends and family. During the process, she realized that following her true passion—telling stories through writing—made the business of the art worthwhile, and owning that business meant she could direct her writing career however she chose.
Starting with her second self-published novel, she began investing more time in marketing and building her audience. Her investment paid off. Since 2014, Laqueur, now 49, has self-published six novels, which collectively have hundreds of ratings and reviews on Goodreads. Her 2016 novel An Exaltation of Larks stole the show at the 25th Annual Writer’s Digest Self-Published Book Awards, topping more than 2,300 entries to win the grand prize.
“You have to write the most truthful story to you, and I think self-publishing allows that freedom,’ she says. “If you work with traditional publishing, it’s more about what’s marketable, There are trade-offs, which everyone will tell you, but by self-publishing I have control of the book, I have control of the story, and I’m cool with that.”
24. From Paragraph 2,we can learn that Laqueur _______.
A. wanted to own a publishing house
B. didn’t like teaching dancing in fact
C. was a part-time writer when she was young
D. was interested in running her mother’s studio
25. What made Laqueur change her attitude to business?
A. Her mother’s persuasion. B. Self-publishing her novels.
C. The desire to make money, D. Her own passion toward art.
26. Which of the following can best replace the phrase “stole the show” in Paragraph 4?
A. became a failure. B. was shown to people.
C. got all the attention. D. was accidentally stolen.
27. What can be inferred from what Laqueur’s said?
A. She enjoys the way of self-publishing.
B. She will never use traditional publishing.
C. Traditional publishing only focuses on the market.
D. Self-publishing will replace traditional publishing.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. C 27. A
【解析】

When you were at school, the last thing you probably wanted to do was spend your weekends going to work. There was homework to do, sport to play and fun to have. But our parents probably persuaded us to find a job to earn some money and get some life experience. When I was a teenager I had a paper round: delivering newspapers to people's homes. I then progressed to a Saturday job in a supermarket: stacking shelves and working at the checkout.
Today in the UK you are allowed to work from the age of 13, and many children do take up part-time jobs. It's one of those things that are seen almost as a rite of passage(成人仪式).It's a taste of independence and sometimes a useful thing to put on your CV(简历).Teenagers agree that it teaches valuable lessons about working with adults and also about managing their money.
Some research has shown that not taking up a Saturday or holiday job could be deleterious to a person later on. A 2015 study by the UK Commission on Employment and Skills found that not participating in part-time work at school age had been blamed by employer's organizations for young adults being ill-prepared for full-time employment, but despite this, recent statistics have shown that the number of schoolchildren in the UK with a part-time job has fallen by a fifth in the past five years.
So, does this mean that British teenagers are now afraid of hard work? Probably not. Some experts feel that young people feel going out to work will affect their performance at school, and they are under more pressure now to study hard and get good exam results-and a good job in the long term. However, Geoff Barton, general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, told BBC News that "Properly regulated(控制的)part-time work is a good way of helping young people learn skills that they will need in their working lives." In reality, it's all about getting the right balance between doing part-time work and having enough time to study and rest.
28. How did the author feel about doing part-time jobs on weekends when he was a teenager?
A. Unwilling. B. Interested.
C. Delighted. D. Angry.
29. Which of the following may NOT be the benefit of school children's doing part-time jobs?
A. Learning to be independent. B. Gaining some life experience.
C. Being prepared for future jobs. D. Spending what they earn as they like.
30. What does the underlined word "deleterious" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. valuable. B. harmful.
C. necessary. D. beneficial.
31. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?
A. Students should spend all their time on studies.
B. Students should have as many part-time jobs as possible.
C. Doing part-time jobs must affect students' school results.
D. It's important for students to balance part-time jobs and studies.
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. B 31. D

Nearly 20 U.S. states have started carrying out former president Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan, which places limits on carbon dioxide emissions from power plants in an effort to reduce the impacts of climate change. The plan has been in legal limbo (边缘) for the past year. Yet scientists have now calculated another outcome of the policy: harm to crop yields (产量) if the plan is cancelled. Along with carbon pollution, coal-fired power plants spew (喷出) pollutants that form what we know as smog. The contribution of smog to increased rates of asthma (哮喘) and premature deaths was already known. The new research estimates the extent to which smog, under air-pollution policies-4n place before the Clean Power Plan, would limit production in 2020 of four major crops: corn, cotton, potatoes and soybeans.
Led by environmental engineer Shannon L. Capps, now at Drexel University, the team also sketched the extent to which those crop production losses would reduce under three nationwide scenarios (方案). One improved the efficiency of individual power plants. Another modeled a policy similar to the Obama plan, setting state CO2 emissions goals for the electricity department. A third established a tax on carbon emissions, under which emissions fell the most. But the greatest drop in smog-forming pollutants—and greatest gains in crop yields—came from policies such as the Clean Power Plan.
Researchers calculated how well each scenario would reduce the potential productivity loss (PPL) of each crop. PPL is a projected value for 2020 and indicates how much crop growth would suffer because of smog. Scenario 2 most closely agrees with results expected from the Clean Power Plan.
32. What’s the main purpose of The Clean Power Plan?
A. To offer clean power, B. To limit CO2 emissions.
C. To slow climate change. D. To increase crop production.
33. The latest research shows that smog may cause .
A. asthma B. early deaths
C. heart disease D. crop production loss
34. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?
A. Scenario 3 was intended to increase taxes.
B. Scenario 2 increased crop yields most.
C. Scenario 1 didn’t have any effect on crop yields.
D. The three scenarios were made at Drexel University.
35. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. U.S. states restart the Obama’s Plan.
B. The Clean Power Plan was called off.
C. Three scenarios benefit crop yields.
D. Smog does harm to people’s health.
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. B 35. A

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)
71.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词。
删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。
修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意:1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;
2. 只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。
Have you ever had headache during a test? Have you ever been too concerned about something that you even can’t sleep at night? If so, then you know that stress is. Too much stress can result in angry, depression and other related problems, which we need to take them seriously.
However, not all stress was harmful to you. Some kinds of stress can help you getting things done better, like when you are running towards the finishing line or when you are asking to deliver a speech to your class. Stress sometimes can push you to make full preparations for a test.
The best approach of reducing stress is to have a balanced life. If you get enough sleep, eat proper, take more exercise and have enough fun time, you might feel less stressed.
【答案】headache →headaches
too →so
that →what
angry →anger
去掉them
was →is
getting →get
asking →asked
of →to
proper →properly
【解析】
【分析】
本文为说明文。主要讲述什么是压力,压力的类型和如何缓解压力。战胜压力最好的方式就是保持平衡的生活习惯,按时休息,均衡饮食,坚持锻炼等。
【详解】第1处,考查名词复数。“头疼”的英语表述为have a headache/headaches ,此处headache为可数,故将headache改为headaches。
第2处,考查so…that…结构。此处应用so…that引导结果状语从句,故将too改为so。
第3处,考查what引导名词性从句。句意:如果是这样,那么你就知道什么是压力了。分析句子结构可知,宾语从句中缺少表语成分,应用what充当其宾语,意为“什么”,故将that改为what。
第4处,考查名词。此处应用名词形式作宾语,故将angry改为anger。
第5处,考查定语从句的结构。分析句子结构可知,which引导非限制性定语从句,在从句中作take… seriously的宾语,them多余,故去掉them。
第6处,考查时态。纵览全文可知,本文用一般现在时,故将was改为is。
第7处,考查非谓语动词。help sb.(to) do sth. “帮助某人做某事”,为固定说法,此处用不定式作宾语补足语,故将getting改为get。
第8处,考查被动语态。根据句意逻辑可知,当你被要求在班里做演讲的时候,此处ask与主语you为被动关系,故将asking改为asked。
第9处,考查固定短语搭配。the approach to (doing) sth.,“做某事的方法”,to (doing) sth作后置定语,为固定搭配,故将of改为to。
第10处,考查副词用法。此处修饰动词eat,应用副词形式,故将proper改为properly。
【点睛】本文第3处错误考查what引导名词性从句的用法和与that的区别。
关于what和that引导从句是学生常考常错的一个语法点。它们的具体用法及区别为:
一、引导主语、宾语或表语从句时,what在从句中要充当句子成分;而that引导主语、宾语、表语和同位语从句时,不作任何成分,只起语法连接作用。试比较:
1、That George W. Bush won the presidency once again was what many people hadn't expected. 乔治.布什再次赢得总统大选,这是很多人没有预料到的。
2、It is the same old story of not being grateful for what we have until we lose it.事情往往是这样,失去之物,方知珍惜。
二、一定要记住在定语从句中,根本不用what连接词。所以大家在做题中,如果判定是定语从句,就不要再考虑what了。That 在定语从句中,一般可以作从句的主语,宾语和表语。例如:
1、 Do you still remember the chicken farm ____ we visited three months ago?
「分析」填that。该句为定语从句。用that做从句visit的宾语。
2、He is not the naughty boy that he used to be.他不再是从前那个调皮的男孩了。

【答案】Dear teachers and friends,
I feel greatly honored to give a speech here on behalf of all the exchange students
Living and studying here makes us very fulfilled. During our stay, we have a better understanding of the British life, culture, society and so on, which have not only enriched our knowledge but also broadened our horizon. Apart from that, our abilities including listening, speaking and writing English have also got greatly improved. And it is all the English teachers and classmates here that we should owe many thanks to. Without their help, we couldn’t have achieved so much.
True friendship never ends, so I hope we can keep in touch with each other even after we go back home. And I also sincerely hope that some day you can come to China for a visit.
That’s all! Thank you!
【解析】
首先审题,要求作为学生代表在欢送会上发言,写一篇发言稿。任务中给出的提示信息包含如下内容1.表示感谢; 2.学习的收获和感受; 3.表达祝愿。抓住了这亮点,我们就抓住了文章的核心内容,一定要注意发言稿的用语和格式。其次选用正确的人称和时态,考虑用一般现在时,第一人称来写。然后写出单个句子,使用正确的连词,连句成段。具体来说,写这篇文章时,要注意: 1、提示中的内容比较泛泛,需要适当补充; 2、为使文章层次清楚,可分三个自然段写:第一自然段说明自己很荣幸作为学生代表发言;第二自然段对自己的收获和感受进行总结;第三自然段表示友谊并不会随着自己回国而结束。这篇文章对于考生的综合能力要求较高,要求考生有很强的谋篇布局的能力和组织要点的能力。需要注意紧扣文章主题,给出的要点都需要包括,缺一不可。写作时注意准确运用时态,上下文意思连贯,符合逻辑关系,不能出现文章脱节问题。尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式,同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。
【亮点说明】本篇书面表达要点全面,结构紧凑,是一篇较好的范文。这篇短文使用了大量的短语,为文章增色不少,如: on behalf of代表,Apart from除……之外。还使用了定语从句During our stay, we have a better understanding of the British life, culture, society and so on, which have not only enriched our knowledge but also broadened our horizon.和宾语从句And I also sincerely hope that some day you can come to China for a visit.等多种句式结构,增加了文章的可读性。
