The Price of a Dream
I grew up poor.We had little money, but plenty of love and attention.I understood that no matter how poor a person was, they could still afford a dream.My dream was athletics.
By the time I was sixteen, I was good at baseball and football.My high－school coach was Ollie Jarvis.He not only believed in me, but taught me the difference between having a dream and showing conviction(信念).
One summer a friend recommended me for a summer job.This meant a chance for money in my pocket — cash for dates with girls, certainly, money for a new bike and new clothes, and the start of savings for a house for my mother.
Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn't be playing. I was afraid of this, but my mother said：“If you make your bed, you have to lie in it.”
When I told Coach Jarvis, he was as mad as I expected him to be.“Your playing days are limited.You can't afford to waste them, ” he said.
I stood before him with my head hanging, trying to think of the words that would explain to him why I dream of buying my mom a house.
“How much are you going to make at this job, son？” he demanded.
“Three point twenty－five an hour，” I replied.
“Well, ” he asked, “is $3.25 an hour the price of a dream？”
That question exposed the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal.I devoted myself to sports that summer, and within the year I was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play rookie－league ball, and offered a $20, 000 contract.I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for $1.7 million, and bought my mother my dream house.
24 Why was the writer grateful to Coach Jarvis?
A. Because Coach Jarvis made him set a goal.
B. Because Coach Jarvis supplied him with new clothes.
C. Because Coach Jarvis gave him financial support.
D. Because Coach Jarvis helped him show conviction.
25. What did the writer want to do when he was offered a job?
A. Balance summer baseball and the work schedule.
B. Refuse the job offer for summer baseball.
C. Give up summer baseball for the job.
D. Ask his coach Jarvis for advice.
26. Which of the following can replace “If you make your bed, you have to lie in it.”？
A. You must eat the bitter fruit of your own making.
B. Believe in yourself, but above all be patient.
C. You must rely on yourself first then others.
D. A good beginning makes a good ending.
27. What did the writer do at the end of the story?
A. He failed to buy his mother a house. B. He succeeded as a sportsman.
C. He became a successful businessman. D. He made some money in the summer job.
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是记叙文。作者是一个很有棒球天赋的人，但家境很差，为了挣钱他计划放弃暑期训练,后来在教练的要求下坚持训练，成为了成功的棒球运动员。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“He not only believed in me, but taught me the difference between having a dream and showing conviction(信念)．”(他不仅仅相信我，还教会我梦想与信念之间的区别)可知，作者感激Jarvis教练帮助他树立信念。故选D项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的“Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn't be playing.( 然后我意识到我将不得不放弃夏季棒球来处理工作日程，这意味着我将不得不告诉Jarvis教练我将不会参加训练了。)”可知当作者得到一份工作时,他想放弃夏季棒球训练而去做那份工作。故选C项。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段第一句“Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn't be playing.( 后来我意识到我将不得不放弃夏季棒球,来处理工作日程,这意味着我将不得不告诉Jarvis教练我将不会参加训练了)再根据划线句前的“I was afraid of this”(我又害怕这样)可推断,划线句意“如果你铺了床,你就得躺在上面”,表示要勇敢面对自己导致的结果。也就是说作者的妈妈对于作者放弃棒球去工作这个事情，告诫作者：自己造成的结果要自己来承受。故选A项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后两句“I devoted myself to sports that summer, and within the year I was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play rookie－league ball, and offered a $20, 000 contract. I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for $1.7 million, and bought my mother my dream house.（那年夏天,我全身心地投入到体育运动中,不到一年,我就被匹兹堡海盗队选中参加新秀联赛,并获得了一份2万美元的合同。1984年,我以170万美元的价格与丹佛野马队签约,为母亲买下了我梦寐以求的房子。）”可知,作者在运动方面取得了成功，给妈妈买了梦想中的房子。 故选B项。
C
In Shakespeare’s HAMLET, Polonius asks the prince, “What are you reading, my Lord?” Hamlet replies, “Words, words, words.” Either, as is likely, Hamlet wasn’t interested in what he was reading, or, less likely, he didn’t understand the words he was reading. In this case, Polonius should have lent Hamlet a good dictionary.
Dictionaries are essential tools for people who like to read. There are so many words in English that even the most educated person will sometimes meet an unfamiliar word and have to look it up. Languages keep changing, too, with new words constantly being added and new meanings being applied to old words. For example, the 12th edition of Xinhua Dictionary, the most popular dictionary in China, has added new words such as “chu xin” “fen si” “er wei ma” etc. As for new meanings, “girl” once meant “a small child of either sex”. And “naughty” didn’t mean you were “enjoying playing tricks”; it meant you were poor.
A printed dictionary can’t keep pace with all the changes which is why most dictionaries have websites and apps to help you keep up-to-date. However, I still prefer printed dictionaries because they give you more definitions and more examples of how a word is used. Even a simple word, such as “set”, has 430 meanings (the most of English words) but an online dictionary would only offer two or three. A printed dictionary also gives you the opportunity to discover new words as you run your finger down the page looking for the word you want.
There is no “official” English dictionary, but the Oxford English Dictionary is considered to be the best. For English language learners, however, I would recommend the Collins COBUILD Dictionary for Advanced Learners. Hamlet, by the way, was Danish and a college student. He would have appreciated the Collins Dictionary to help himself with his words, words, words. This dictionary has over 40,000 words and gives you full-sentence definitions with good examples of how words are used.
28. What’s the function of paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic.
B. To let the readers know more about HAMLET.
C. To arouse readers’ interest in Shakespeare.
D. To explain when it’s necessary to use a dictionary.
29. Why does the author mention “girl” in paragraph 2?
A. To show how powerful Xinhua Dictionary is.
B. To support the idea: languages keep changing.
C. To prove new words are being added to dictionaries.
D. To imply “girl” also means “boy” in some cases.
30. What’s the author’s attitude to printed dictionaries?
A. Favorable. B. Ambiguous. C. Negative. D. Critical.
31. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the last paragraph?
A. To introduce the history of dictionaries.
B. To call on learners to use dictionaries.
C. To recommend Collins Dictionary.
D. To explain why Hamlet likes Collins.
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了词典的重要作用以及作者偏爱纸质词典的原因。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文尤其是第一段最后一句“In this case, Polonius should have lent Hamlet a good dictionary.( 在这种情况下，普罗尼尔斯应该借给哈姆雷特一本好词典。)”可知，作者在第一段通过引用《哈姆雷特》中的一段对话引出了文章的主题——“dictionary”。故选A。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段第三句“Languages keep changing, too, with new words constantly being added and new meanings being applied to old words. (语言也在不断变化，新词不断被添加，旧词被赋予新的含义。)”可知，随着新词不断出现，旧词的新义不断增加，语言也一直在变化。由此可推知，作者提及“girl”这个旧词的新义是为了支撑“语言在不断变化”这个论点。故选B。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。通读第三段尤其是第二句中的“However, I still prefer printed dictionaries(然而，我还是更喜欢纸质词典)”可知，作者更喜欢使用纸质词典。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。通读最后一段尤其是第二句“For English language learners, however, I would recommend the Collins COBUILD Dictionary for Advanced Learners. (然而，对于英语学习者，我推荐柯林斯高阶英语词典。)”可知，作者写最后一段的目的是向读者推荐柯林斯高阶英语词典。故选C。
D
Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.
Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated (展示) a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts.
In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.
“Our brain has billions of nerve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles,” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices.”
The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp (头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.
Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.”
He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.
32. BCI is a technology that can ________.
A. help to update computer systems B. link the human brain with computers
C. help the disabled to recover D. control a person’s thoughts
33. Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?
A. scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair. B. computer→cap→scalp→wheelchair.
C. scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair. D. cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair.
34. The team will test with real patients to ________ .
A. make profits from them B. prove the technology useful to them
C. make them live longer D. learn about their physical condition
35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. Switzerland, the BCI Research Center
B. New Findings About How the Human Brain Works
C. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled
D. Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【分析】本篇为科技报道，介绍在瑞士洛桑的研究人员正在从事的一项课题，将人脑与计算机连接起来，为那些行动受限的残疾人提供帮助，从而让他们能够与外界交流，也能让他们控制这一装置。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。从文章第一段中的“Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.(自20世纪70年代以来，科学家们一直在寻找将大脑与计算机连接起来的方法。脑机接口(BCI)技术可以帮助残疾人向机器发送命令)”可知，BCI是一种可以将人的大脑和计算机连接在一起的技术。 故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。作者在文章第五段中描述了这种技术条件下信号传输的原理，由其中的“This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp (头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair.(这个头罩从头皮接收信号，并将其发送到计算机。计算机对信号进行解读并指挥电动轮椅)”可知，信号先由头皮发出，然后由专门设计的这个帽子接收信号，再把这个信号传给电脑，电脑再对此进行翻译，最后把指令发给电动轮椅。故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。从文章最后一段中的“One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from.(一种是在真实的病人身上进行测试，以证明这是一项他们可以从中受益的技术)”可知，用真正的病人进行实验的目的是要证明这项技术会让病人受益。 故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.(脑机接口(BCI)技术可以帮助残疾人向机器发送命令)”结合全文内容，可知本篇文章介绍了瑞士科技工作者从事的一项旨在帮助残疾人用思维来操作轮椅的技术研究，目的就让他们利用这项技术能与外界交流，因此只有C项“BCI对残疾人意味着更多的自由”符合要求，最适合作文章标题。故选C

根据上文“Keep some work with you at all times. Take advantage of your downtime by keeping work with you at all times.(时刻保持一些工作在你身边。充分利用你的休息时间，让工作时刻与你在一起)”以及后文“If you’re a student, think about investing in some audio-books or recording your lectures. While waiting in line or walking to class, you can listen to material for your courses.(如果你是一名学生，可以考虑买一些有声读物或把你的课录下来。在排队或步行去上课时，你可以听课程材料)”可知，本句与后文都是在就如何利用休息时间工作进行举例说明。故G选项“如果你在公交车上有几分钟的时间，利用这几分钟时间阅读一些学校或工作需要的东西”符合语境，故选G。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Do not multitask. Many people assume multitasking is a great way to get more done each day and manage time wisely. However, focusing on multiple tasks at once actually makes you less productive. Things will take longer to do, as you’re not giving anything your full attention.(不要一心多用。许多人认为多任务处理是每天完成更多工作、明智地管理时间好方法。然而，同时专注于多项任务实际上会降低你的效率。事情会花更长的时间去做，因为你没有给予你全部的注意力)”可知，此处总结上文让我们不要一心多用，即一次只专注于一项任务。故C选项“一次只专注于一项任务”符合语境，呼应主旨句。故选C。

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是青少年如何改善和父母之间的关系。
【56题详解】
考查名词。句意：激烈的争论和冷漠的沉默在青少年和他们的父母之间是很常见的。“Heated”是形容词，修饰名词，“argue”的名词是argument，由后面的“silences”可知，空格处用复数，故填arguments。
【57题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：当一切变得太过分时，你的父母往往是你愤怒的第一个目标。通篇时态是一般现在时，主语it是单数，因此空格处用第三人称单数gets，故填gets。
【58题详解】
考查形容词。句意：平衡你正在发展的心理需求也是一件令人头疼的事。根据语境可知，句子表示“平衡你正在发展的心理需求也是一件令人头疼的事”，空格处意为“正在发展的”，用形容词developing，修饰名词needs，故填developing。
【59题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：你的父母希望你表现得像个成年人，但仍然把你当作一个孩子时，这可能很困难。it is difficult to do sth.是固定短语，意为“做某事是困难的”，其中it是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式，因此空格处用不定式，故填to act。
【60题详解】
考查it作形式主语。句意：虽然有时候一家人似乎不可能和睦相处，但你可以采取行动来改善这种情况。it is impossible to do sth.是固定短语，意为“做某事是不可能的”，其中it是形式主语，不定式是真正的主语，因此空格处用it，故填it。
【61题详解】
考查状语从句。句意：如果/当你不同意父母的意见时，花点时间冷静下来，试着从他们的角度去理解情况。根据语境可知，句子表示“如果/当你不同意父母的意见时，花点时间冷静下来，试着从他们的角度去理解情况”，空格处用“如果或当……的时候”，用if/when，位于句首，首字母大写，故填If或When。
【62题详解】
考查介词。句意：如果/当你不同意父母的意见时，花点时间冷静下来，试着从他们的角度去理解情况。from one's point of view是固定短语，意为“从某人的观点来看”，因此空格处是介词from，故填from。
【63题详解】
考查连词。句意：在你想清楚之后，平静地解释你的行为和感受，仔细倾听，并解决他们的担忧。根据句意可知，“explain your actions and feelings calmly, listen carefully”和“address their concerns”是一系列并列的动作，因此空格处用表并列的连词and，故填and。
【64题详解】
考查形容词。句意：青少年和父母之间的暴风雨期不会持续太久。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词“period”，storm的形容词是stormy，意为“狂风暴雨的”，故填stormy。
【65题详解】
考查时态。句意：每件事最终都会变好，你青少年时期的变化和挑战将为你成年做好准备。and前后时态一致，由前面的“will turn out”是一般将来时可知，空格处的时态是一般将来时，即will prepare，故填will prepare。

第二节（满分25分）
67. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写两段，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Once, when I was a teenager, my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus. Finally, there was only one family between us and the ticket counter.
This family made a big impression on me. There were eight children, all probably under the age of twelve. You could tell they didn’t have a lot of money.
Their clothes were not expensive, but they were clean. The children were well-behaved, all of them standing in line, two-by-two behind their parents, holding hands. They were excitedly talking about the clowns, elephants, and other acts they would see that night with their brothers or sisters in a low voice.
One could sense they had never been to the circus before. It promised to be highlight of their young lives. The father and mother were at the head of the pack, standing proud as could be. The mother was holding her husband’s hand, looking up at him as if to say, “You are my knight in shining armor.”
He was smiling and responding in pride, looking back at her as if to say, “You got that right.” The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted. He proudly responded, “Please let me buy eight children’s tickets and two adult tickets so I can take my family to the circus.”
The ticket lady gave the price. The man’s wife let go of his hand, her head dropped, and his lips began to shake. The father leaned a little closer and asked, “How much did you say?”
The ticket lady again gave the price. The man didn’t have enough money.
How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight children that he didn’t have enough money to take them to the circus?
Actually we were not wealthy in any sense. So I understand how the kids would feel. I felt sorry for them.
注意：
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；
Paragraph 1
Seeing what was going on, my dad put his hand in his pocket, pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2
That day my father and I went back to our car and drove home without any tickets. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1
Seeing what was going on, my dad put his hand in his pocket, pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground. Then he picked it up and tapped the man on the shoulder and said, “Excuse me, sir. This fell out of your pocket.” The man turned around and saw the money. He knew what was going on. He looked straight into my dad’s eyes, took my dad’s hand in both of his, squeezed tightly onto the $20 bill, and with his lips shaking and a tear running down his cheek, he replied, “ Thank you, thank you, sir. This really means a lot to me and my family.”
Paragraph 2
That day my father and I went back to our car and drove home without any tickets. We didn’t go to the circus that night. When I asked Dad why he did so, Dad said, “My child, it was a desperate, heartbreaking and embarrassing situation for a father. Surely he wasn’t begging for a handout, but he reminded me of my father, when I was young.” He paused for a while, as if wandering in his memory. “We should appreciate what we have obtained from life and seize every opportunity to help others. We didn’t go to the circus tonight, but we didn’t go without.”
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇读后续写作文。
【详解】通过阅读所给文章可知，文章主要讲述了作者十几岁的时候，有一次和父亲排队买马戏团的票。最后，排在他们前面的只有一个有八个孩子的家庭了。人们可以感觉到他们以前从来没有去过马戏团。这将是他们年轻生活中的亮点。父亲和母亲非常自豪地站在那里。后来女售票员报出了价格，他们却没有足够的钱。他怎么能转身告诉他的八个孩子他没有足够的钱带他们去看马戏呢？而作者他们也一点也不富裕，所以能理解孩子们的感受，为他们感到难过。
续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：看到发生了什么，爸爸把手伸进口袋，掏出一张20美元的钞票，把它扔在地上。所以后文应该是讲述作者的父亲用一个巧妙的方式帮助了这家人，后文主要描述那个父亲拿到钱后的反应，他非常感谢作者的父亲；第二段开头是：那天，我和爸爸回到车里，没有买任何票就开车回家了。本段应该写父亲告诉作者自己这么做的原因，作者也从中意识到我们应该珍惜我们从生活中获得的一切，抓住每一个机会去帮助别人。
最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。
【点睛】本文描写详略得当，使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如：pick up, tap on, fall out of, mean a lot等高级词汇；When I asked Dad why he did so, Dad said, “My child, it was a desperate, heartbreaking and embarrassing situation for a father. Surely he wasn’t begging for a handout, but he reminded me of my father, when I was young.” 运用了时间状语从句；We should appreciate what we have obtained from life and seize every opportunity to help others.运用了宾语从句；等高级句式。

The Price of a Dream
I grew up poor.We had little money, but plenty of love and attention.I understood that no matter how poor a person was, they could still afford a dream.My dream was athletics.
By the time I was sixteen, I was good at baseball and football.My high－school coach was Ollie Jarvis.He not only believed in me, but taught me the difference between having a dream and showing conviction(信念).
One summer a friend recommended me for a summer job.This meant a chance for money in my pocket — cash for dates with girls, certainly, money for a new bike and new clothes, and the start of savings for a house for my mother.
Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn't be playing. I was afraid of this, but my mother said：“If you make your bed, you have to lie in it.”
When I told Coach Jarvis, he was as mad as I expected him to be.“Your playing days are limited.You can't afford to waste them, ” he said.
I stood before him with my head hanging, trying to think of the words that would explain to him why I dream of buying my mom a house.
“How much are you going to make at this job, son？” he demanded.
“Three point twenty－five an hour，” I replied.
“Well, ” he asked, “is $3.25 an hour the price of a dream？”
That question exposed the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal.I devoted myself to sports that summer, and within the year I was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play rookie－league ball, and offered a $20, 000 contract.I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for $1.7 million, and bought my mother my dream house.
24 Why was the writer grateful to Coach Jarvis?
A. Because Coach Jarvis made him set a goal.
B. Because Coach Jarvis supplied him with new clothes.
C. Because Coach Jarvis gave him financial support.
D. Because Coach Jarvis helped him show conviction.
25. What did the writer want to do when he was offered a job?
A. Balance summer baseball and the work schedule.
B. Refuse the job offer for summer baseball.
C. Give up summer baseball for the job.
D. Ask his coach Jarvis for advice.
26. Which of the following can replace “If you make your bed, you have to lie in it.”？
A. You must eat the bitter fruit of your own making.
B. Believe in yourself, but above all be patient.
C. You must rely on yourself first then others.
D. A good beginning makes a good ending.
27. What did the writer do at the end of the story?
A. He failed to buy his mother a house. B. He succeeded as a sportsman.
C. He became a successful businessman. D. He made some money in the summer job.
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是记叙文。作者是一个很有棒球天赋的人，但家境很差，为了挣钱他计划放弃暑期训练,后来在教练的要求下坚持训练，成为了成功的棒球运动员。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“He not only believed in me, but taught me the difference between having a dream and showing conviction(信念)．”(他不仅仅相信我，还教会我梦想与信念之间的区别)可知，作者感激Jarvis教练帮助他树立信念。故选D项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的“Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn't be playing.( 然后我意识到我将不得不放弃夏季棒球来处理工作日程，这意味着我将不得不告诉Jarvis教练我将不会参加训练了。)”可知当作者得到一份工作时,他想放弃夏季棒球训练而去做那份工作。故选C项。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段第一句“Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn't be playing.( 后来我意识到我将不得不放弃夏季棒球,来处理工作日程,这意味着我将不得不告诉Jarvis教练我将不会参加训练了)再根据划线句前的“I was afraid of this”(我又害怕这样)可推断,划线句意“如果你铺了床,你就得躺在上面”,表示要勇敢面对自己导致的结果。也就是说作者的妈妈对于作者放弃棒球去工作这个事情，告诫作者：自己造成的结果要自己来承受。故选A项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后两句“I devoted myself to sports that summer, and within the year I was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play rookie－league ball, and offered a $20, 000 contract. I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for $1.7 million, and bought my mother my dream house.（那年夏天,我全身心地投入到体育运动中,不到一年,我就被匹兹堡海盗队选中参加新秀联赛,并获得了一份2万美元的合同。1984年,我以170万美元的价格与丹佛野马队签约,为母亲买下了我梦寐以求的房子。）”可知,作者在运动方面取得了成功，给妈妈买了梦想中的房子。 故选B项。
C
In Shakespeare’s HAMLET, Polonius asks the prince, “What are you reading, my Lord?” Hamlet replies, “Words, words, words.” Either, as is likely, Hamlet wasn’t interested in what he was reading, or, less likely, he didn’t understand the words he was reading. In this case, Polonius should have lent Hamlet a good dictionary.
Dictionaries are essential tools for people who like to read. There are so many words in English that even the most educated person will sometimes meet an unfamiliar word and have to look it up. Languages keep changing, too, with new words constantly being added and new meanings being applied to old words. For example, the 12th edition of Xinhua Dictionary, the most popular dictionary in China, has added new words such as “chu xin” “fen si” “er wei ma” etc. As for new meanings, “girl” once meant “a small child of either sex”. And “naughty” didn’t mean you were “enjoying playing tricks”; it meant you were poor.
A printed dictionary can’t keep pace with all the changes which is why most dictionaries have websites and apps to help you keep up-to-date. However, I still prefer printed dictionaries because they give you more definitions and more examples of how a word is used. Even a simple word, such as “set”, has 430 meanings (the most of English words) but an online dictionary would only offer two or three. A printed dictionary also gives you the opportunity to discover new words as you run your finger down the page looking for the word you want.
There is no “official” English dictionary, but the Oxford English Dictionary is considered to be the best. For English language learners, however, I would recommend the Collins COBUILD Dictionary for Advanced Learners. Hamlet, by the way, was Danish and a college student. He would have appreciated the Collins Dictionary to help himself with his words, words, words. This dictionary has over 40,000 words and gives you full-sentence definitions with good examples of how words are used.
28. What’s the function of paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic.
B. To let the readers know more about HAMLET.
C. To arouse readers’ interest in Shakespeare.
D. To explain when it’s necessary to use a dictionary.
29. Why does the author mention “girl” in paragraph 2?
A. To show how powerful Xinhua Dictionary is.
B. To support the idea: languages keep changing.
C. To prove new words are being added to dictionaries.
D. To imply “girl” also means “boy” in some cases.
30. What’s the author’s attitude to printed dictionaries?
A. Favorable. B. Ambiguous. C. Negative. D. Critical.
31. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the last paragraph?
A. To introduce the history of dictionaries.
B. To call on learners to use dictionaries.
C. To recommend Collins Dictionary.
D. To explain why Hamlet likes Collins.
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了词典的重要作用以及作者偏爱纸质词典的原因。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文尤其是第一段最后一句“In this case, Polonius should have lent Hamlet a good dictionary.( 在这种情况下，普罗尼尔斯应该借给哈姆雷特一本好词典。)”可知，作者在第一段通过引用《哈姆雷特》中的一段对话引出了文章的主题——“dictionary”。故选A。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段第三句“Languages keep changing, too, with new words constantly being added and new meanings being applied to old words. (语言也在不断变化，新词不断被添加，旧词被赋予新的含义。)”可知，随着新词不断出现，旧词的新义不断增加，语言也一直在变化。由此可推知，作者提及“girl”这个旧词的新义是为了支撑“语言在不断变化”这个论点。故选B。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。通读第三段尤其是第二句中的“However, I still prefer printed dictionaries(然而，我还是更喜欢纸质词典)”可知，作者更喜欢使用纸质词典。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。通读最后一段尤其是第二句“For English language learners, however, I would recommend the Collins COBUILD Dictionary for Advanced Learners. (然而，对于英语学习者，我推荐柯林斯高阶英语词典。)”可知，作者写最后一段的目的是向读者推荐柯林斯高阶英语词典。故选C。

Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.
Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated (展示) a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts.
In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.
“Our brain has billions of nerve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles,” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices.”
The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp (头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.
Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.”
He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.
32. BCI is a technology that can ________.
A. help to update computer systems B. link the human brain with computers
C. help the disabled to recover D. control a person’s thoughts
33. Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?
A. scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair. B. computer→cap→scalp→wheelchair.
C. scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair. D. cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair.
34. The team will test with real patients to ________ .
A. make profits from them B. prove the technology useful to them
C. make them live longer D. learn about their physical condition
35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. Switzerland, the BCI Research Center
B. New Findings About How the Human Brain Works
C. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled
D. Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【分析】本篇为科技报道，介绍在瑞士洛桑的研究人员正在从事的一项课题，将人脑与计算机连接起来，为那些行动受限的残疾人提供帮助，从而让他们能够与外界交流，也能让他们控制这一装置。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。从文章第一段中的“Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.(自20世纪70年代以来，科学家们一直在寻找将大脑与计算机连接起来的方法。脑机接口(BCI)技术可以帮助残疾人向机器发送命令)”可知，BCI是一种可以将人的大脑和计算机连接在一起的技术。 故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。作者在文章第五段中描述了这种技术条件下信号传输的原理，由其中的“This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp (头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair.(这个头罩从头皮接收信号，并将其发送到计算机。计算机对信号进行解读并指挥电动轮椅)”可知，信号先由头皮发出，然后由专门设计的这个帽子接收信号，再把这个信号传给电脑，电脑再对此进行翻译，最后把指令发给电动轮椅。故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。从文章最后一段中的“One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from.(一种是在真实的病人身上进行测试，以证明这是一项他们可以从中受益的技术)”可知，用真正的病人进行实验的目的是要证明这项技术会让病人受益。 故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.(脑机接口(BCI)技术可以帮助残疾人向机器发送命令)”结合全文内容，可知本篇文章介绍了瑞士科技工作者从事的一项旨在帮助残疾人用思维来操作轮椅的技术研究，目的就让他们利用这项技术能与外界交流，因此只有C项“BCI对残疾人意味着更多的自由”符合要求，最适合作文章标题。故选C

【38题详解】
根据上文“List your tasks in terms of importance.(按重要性列出你的任务)”以及后文“To-do lists are a great tool, but organize them a little rather than just writing down everything that needs to get done.

While waiting in line or walking to class, you can listen to material for your courses.(如果你是一名学生，可以考虑买一些有声读物或把你的课录下来。在排队或步行去上课时，你可以听课程材料)”可知，本句与后文都是在就如何利用休息时间工作进行举例说明。故G选项“如果你在公交车上有几分钟的时间，利用这几分钟时间阅读一些学校或工作需要的东西”符合语境，故选G。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Do not multitask. Many people assume multitasking is a great way to get more done each day and manage time wisely. However, focusing on multiple tasks at once actually makes you less productive. Things will take longer to do, as you’re not giving anything your full attention.(不要一心多用。许多人认为多任务处理是每天完成更多工作、明智地管理时间好方法。然而，同时专注于多项任务实际上会降低你的效率。事情会花更长的时间去做，因为你没有给予你全部的注意力)”可知，此处总结上文让我们不要一心多用，即一次只专注于一项任务。故C选项“一次只专注于一项任务”符合语境，呼应主旨句。故选C。

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是青少年如何改善和父母之间的关系。
【56题详解】
考查名词。句意：激烈的争论和冷漠的沉默在青少年和他们的父母之间是很常见的。“Heated”是形容词，修饰名词，“argue”的名词是argument，由后面的“silences”可知，空格处用复数，故填arguments。
【57题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：当一切变得太过分时，你的父母往往是你愤怒的第一个目标。通篇时态是一般现在时，主语it是单数，因此空格处用第三人称单数gets，故填gets。
【58题详解】
考查形容词。句意：平衡你正在发展的心理需求也是一件令人头疼的事。根据语境可知，句子表示“平衡你正在发展的心理需求也是一件令人头疼的事”，空格处意为“正在发展的”，用形容词developing，修饰名词needs，故填developing。
【59题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：你的父母希望你表现得像个成年人，但仍然把你当作一个孩子时，这可能很困难。it is difficult to do sth.是固定短语，意为“做某事是困难的”，其中it是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式，因此空格处用不定式，故填to act。
【60题详解】
考查it作形式主语。句意：虽然有时候一家人似乎不可能和睦相处，但你可以采取行动来改善这种情况。it is impossible to do sth.是固定短语，意为“做某事是不可能的”，其中it是形式主语，不定式是真正的主语，因此空格处用it，故填it。
【61题详解】
考查状语从句。句意：如果/当你不同意父母的意见时，花点时间冷静下来，试着从他们的角度去理解情况。根据语境可知，句子表示“如果/当你不同意父母的意见时，花点时间冷静下来，试着从他们的角度去理解情况”，空格处用“如果或当……的时候”，用if/when，位于句首，首字母大写，故填If或When。
【62题详解】
考查介词。句意：如果/当你不同意父母的意见时，花点时间冷静下来，试着从他们的角度去理解情况。from one's point of view是固定短语，意为“从某人的观点来看”，因此空格处是介词from，故填from。
【63题详解】
考查连词。句意：在你想清楚之后，平静地解释你的行为和感受，仔细倾听，并解决他们的担忧。根据句意可知，“explain your actions and feelings calmly, listen carefully”和“address their concerns”是一系列并列的动作，因此空格处用表并列的连词and，故填and。
【64题详解】
考查形容词。句意：青少年和父母之间的暴风雨期不会持续太久。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词“period”，storm的形容词是stormy，意为“狂风暴雨的”，故填stormy。
【65题详解】
考查时态。句意：每件事最终都会变好，你青少年时期的变化和挑战将为你成年做好准备。and前后时态一致，由前面的“will turn out”是一般将来时可知，空格处的时态是一般将来时，即will prepare，故填will prepare。

第二节（满分25分）
67. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写两段，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Once, when I was a teenager, my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus. Finally, there was only one family between us and the ticket counter.
This family made a big impression on me. There were eight children, all probably under the age of twelve. You could tell they didn’t have a lot of money.
Their clothes were not expensive, but they were clean. The children were well-behaved, all of them standing in line, two-by-two behind their parents, holding hands. They were excitedly talking about the clowns, elephants, and other acts they would see that night with their brothers or sisters in a low voice.
One could sense they had never been to the circus before. It promised to be highlight of their young lives. The father and mother were at the head of the pack, standing proud as could be. The mother was holding her husband’s hand, looking up at him as if to say, “You are my knight in shining armor.”
He was smiling and responding in pride, looking back at her as if to say, “You got that right.” The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted. He proudly responded, “Please let me buy eight children’s tickets and two adult tickets so I can take my family to the circus.”
The ticket lady gave the price. The man’s wife let go of his hand, her head dropped, and his lips began to shake. The father leaned a little closer and asked, “How much did you say?”
The ticket lady again gave the price. The man didn’t have enough money.
How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight children that he didn’t have enough money to take them to the circus?
Actually we were not wealthy in any sense. So I understand how the kids would feel. I felt sorry for them.
注意：
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；
Paragraph 1
Seeing what was going on, my dad put his hand in his pocket, pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2
That day my father and I went back to our car and drove home without any tickets. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1
Seeing what was going on, my dad put his hand in his pocket, pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground. Then he picked it up and tapped the man on the shoulder and said, “Excuse me, sir. This fell out of your pocket.” The man turned around and saw the money. He knew what was going on. He looked straight into my dad’s eyes, took my dad’s hand in both of his, squeezed tightly onto the $20 bill, and with his lips shaking and a tear running down his cheek, he replied, “ Thank you, thank you, sir. This really means a lot to me and my family.”
Paragraph 2
That day my father and I went back to our car and drove home without any tickets. We didn’t go to the circus that night. When I asked Dad why he did so, Dad said, “My child, it was a desperate, heartbreaking and embarrassing situation for a father. Surely he wasn’t begging for a handout, but he reminded me of my father, when I was young.” He paused for a while, as if wandering in his memory. “We should appreciate what we have obtained from life and seize every opportunity to help others. We didn’t go to the circus tonight, but we didn’t go without.”
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇读后续写作文。
【详解】通过阅读所给文章可知，文章主要讲述了作者十几岁的时候，有一次和父亲排队买马戏团的票。最后，排在他们前面的只有一个有八个孩子的家庭了。人们可以感觉到他们以前从来没有去过马戏团。这将是他们年轻生活中的亮点。父亲和母亲非常自豪地站在那里。后来女售票员报出了价格，他们却没有足够的钱。他怎么能转身告诉他的八个孩子他没有足够的钱带他们去看马戏呢？而作者他们也一点也不富裕，所以能理解孩子们的感受，为他们感到难过。
续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：看到发生了什么，爸爸把手伸进口袋，掏出一张20美元的钞票，把它扔在地上。所以后文应该是讲述作者的父亲用一个巧妙的方式帮助了这家人，后文主要描述那个父亲拿到钱后的反应，他非常感谢作者的父亲；第二段开头是：那天，我和爸爸回到车里，没有买任何票就开车回家了。本段应该写父亲告诉作者自己这么做的原因，作者也从中意识到我们应该珍惜我们从生活中获得的一切，抓住每一个机会去帮助别人。
最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。
【点睛】本文描写详略得当，使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如：pick up, tap on, fall out of, mean a lot等高级词汇；When I asked Dad why he did so, Dad said, “My child, it was a desperate, heartbreaking and embarrassing situation for a father. Surely he wasn’t begging for a handout, but he reminded me of my father, when I was young.” 运用了时间状语从句；We should appreciate what we have obtained from life and seize every opportunity to help others.运用了宾语从句；等高级句式。
