12．（10分）When 16﹣year﹣old Grayden Brunet joined the Sackets Harbor，New York，volunteer fire department in 2017，he was the youngest on the team in 20 years.He was so thrilled to be following in his dad's footsteps that he persuaded two classmates，Niklas Brazie and Dalton Hardison，to sign up too.
A few years later，the older firefighters quit over COVID﹣19 concerns.Suddenly，the three teens were not only helping the Sackets Harbor volunteer fire department，they were the Sackets Harbor volunteer fire department.They were the ones responding to heart attacks，car accidents，and suicides.They were the ones speeding COVID﹣19 patients to hospitals.

The job is demanding.One night last fall，the crew responded to two ambulance calls and a fire.They got home at 5：30 a.m.，just two hours before school started."It's definitely hard coming back from the calls and having to take an algebra test，"Grayden told NCPR.But they don't mind the exhausting work.And the looks on the faces of 911 callers when they meet their rescuers?Priceless，says Grayden Brunet.

13．（10分）The entire country struggled with the unprecedented heat of the July 2022 heatwave，but for the disabled，the heat hit even harder.The climate crisis is a threat to everyone's health，but according to a report in 2021，people with disabilities are more vulnerable to the extreme weather events and natural disasters that result from the climate crisis.
Professor Kristie Ebi of the Centre for Health and the Global at the University of Washington，described the topic of heatwaves and disabled people as being an important issue."Groups at higher risk during periods of high temperature include people with chronic（慢性的） medical conditions，people who take certain medications that can reduce the ability of the body to sweat，and the disabled"，notes Ebi，going on to describe the different threats that heatwaves pose for different types of disabilities.Ebi notes the difficulty people with mobility issues or blindness may have with accessing services，such as cooling shelters.Ebi also comments on the importance of making messageing on the dangers of high temperatures accessible to those with learning disabilities or to deaf people."Some studies suggest higher rates of suicide and other mental health issues during heatwaves，requiring targeted help for those with mental disabilities，"she added.
Ailsa Speak，a disability and lifestyle blogger，experiences uncontrollable movements in the heat due to her cerebral palsy（脑瘫）."As you can imagine，when my involuntary movements increase，I get even hotter.It's just a painful circle really."
In the absence of a concrete set of plans for people with disabilities during the climate crisis and extreme weather events，people with disabilities continue to be at increased risk of heat﹣related disease.
To prevent future death and destruction，the Climate Change Committee（CCC），an independent organization tackling climate change，advocates for adaptation planning，as the temperature is set to rise further due to the climate crisis and global warming.The CCC's2022 report on the health risks of overheating offers adaptation options to the government to ensum that buildings are fit for future climate change.Nevertheless，the publication does not offer specific advice about people with disabilities and overheating，which thus remains to be discussed promptly and thoroughly.

（1）The underlined word " vulnerable " in Paragraph 1 possibly means .
A.defensive
B.delicate
C.experienced
D.adaptable
（2）Which of the following would Professor Ebi most probably agree with?
A.Heatwaves make people with chronic diseases suffer most.
B.The mentally disabled have no access to cooling shelters.
C.Some disabled people are ill﹣informed about the risks of heatwaves.
D.Mobility disability contributes to higher risk of suicide in the heatwaves.
（3）Why does the author mention Ailsa Speak?
A.To share a disabled blogger's painful life.
B.To show what a terrible disease cerebral palsy is.
C.To illustrate the trouble the disabled have in the heat.
D.To prove the never﹣before﹣seen highs in temperature.
（4）The author's purpose of writing this passage is to .
A.stress the urgent need to care for the disabled in the heat
B.suggest methods of helping the disabled in heatwaves
C.tell readers how severe the July 2022 heatwave was
D.introduce adaptation alternatives for future buildings
14．（10分）The clumsy and big guy in my pocket—heavy and old﹣fashioned flip（翻盖） phone，let me salute you.
I can't remember how long we've been together.Seven years or more?Even back then，you were out of date.The salesman in the phone store spoke warmly of your indestructibility，as if that were your prime virtue.He said I could throw you against a wall if I wanted，and you'd just bounce off.But I would never do that.
Why can't I quit you?First，the obvious thing：You are not connected to the Internet.So for me，you are a little brick of privacy.And by privacy I don't mean my identity card number or family information or whatever—I mean the fragile sphere of imagination in which I exist when I'm not wandering online.I mean what's left of my non﹣digital self.When I close your two halves，that's it.
Second，you've become rather talismanic（护身符般的），socially.It's like hanging around with an unsocial friend：I enjoy watching people react to you.When I hold you，wave you around，I get sighs of pity and confusion，especially from the young."Look at you，man，"somebody said to me the other day when I took you out to exchange numbers."Look at you."
We're out of the dream，you and me.When I have two spare minutes，I don't pull you out and stare at you，attracted，moving my fingertips across your surface.I stand around like a spare part，hands in my pockets.I feel the breeze on my face.I hear the hum of the city and the hum of my brain.Do I have the energy to send a text?I frown when I text.Sometimes I sweat.I smash your noisy little buttons；it sounds like I'm operating a telegraph.Three clicks to get to aC—tack﹣tack﹣tack and two more for an E.A decent sentence can take me 10 minutes.Anybody who gets a text from me knows I mean it.
What will I do when you go?Your name is Kyocera，king of kings.You are a black monument in the desert of Time.

（1）What do we know about the old phone in terms of privacy?
A.It can allow the author room for imagination.
B.It may let out the identity information of the author.
C.It features a very reliable network security system.
D.It keeps others from knowing the author's family.
（2）How does the author feel when he goes out with his"unsocial friend"?
A.He feels pity for the young people.
B.He feels sad for being the special one.
C.He feels pleased to see others' response.
D.He feels confused about people's behavior.
（3）When his friends receive a message from the author，they .
A.should take the message very seriously
B.must regard the message as a telegraph
C.will blame the author for his being slow
D.may misunderstand the text's meaning
（4）Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.The Friend Keeping Me Connected.
B.A Deep Respect for My Flip Phone.
C.A Digital World in the Desert of Time.
D.The Importance of a Powerful Phone.
第二节（共1小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
15．（12.5分）Many Brits firmly believe that no task，from studying to data entry to putting up a shelf，can be accomplished without a good cup of tea.（1） Tea is the response to various situations：waking up，breaking up，meeting a friend，feeling uncomfortable，or feeling happy.How you take your tea indicates your social class and personality.
（2） At first，it was popular among the nobles and then the British East India Company began to import much more tea from the Far East，where it had been grown and drink for thousands of years.（3） Tea is one of the few experiences in Britain that cuts across social class divides，race，ethnicity，and income levels.It also gives socially awkward Brits something to do with their hands.
Tea is traditionally brewed in a pot and poured out into individual cups.Most people，however，could not afford fine bone china.The cups they did have would often crack under the heat of the boiling tea.Milk was therefore added first to the cups to lessen the heat of the hot tea and keep the cups complete.（4） In modern times，the " milk first " issue is a hot topic.Friendships have been lost over whether it's correct to add milk to your cup before the tea or after.
Kate Fox，the author of Watching the English，notes that milk in tea also gives off social clues to Britain's all﹣important social class system.According to Fox，the strongest black tea is drunk by the working class，who have to reduce the bitter taste with plenty of milk and sugar to make " builder 's tea."（5） Tea communicates a lot，from social standing to emotional state，which is useful for the British，who tend to be suspicious of emotional displays.Best just to have a nice cup of tea instead.

A.Many people apparently grew to like the taste.
B.The price fell，and suddenly every Briton had a tea habit.
C.Tea has been an important part of British civilization for nearly 300 years.
D.That's almost 36 billion cups per year，divided among British men，women，and children.
E.Therefore，taking sugar in your tea is regarded by many as a lower﹣class indicator.
F.Some even measure the length of a task by how many cups of tea are required to finish it.
G.Scientists note that cold milk poured into hot tea heats unevenly and can give tea an awful top.
第三部分 语言运用（共两节；满分15分）第一节（共1小题；每小题15分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
16．（15分）I still remember the first time I told my then﹣six﹣year﹣old son，Lev，that a clam（蚌）makes calls with its " shell phone ".The laugh of（1） when he first got the joke was a moment I won't ever forget.When I told it a second time in front of his friends Henry and Amir，I could see how（2） he was that I had made his friends laugh.
By Lev's ninth birthday party，things had begun to change.After the seventh or eighth time I asked him " What do you call someone with no body and no（3） ?" he simply（4） his eyes."I get it，Dad..."
"...Nobody knows!"
"Stop it，Dad!"
I'm pretty sure I heard him say"Sorry about my dad"to his friends as they all ran（5） to play on their phones together.
I used to be the life of every party.When I was only an uncle，all the kids loved my jokes.Sure，there were other dads with theirs，but I felt as if（6） ever stole my honour.My wife long ago turned a blind eye to me，but she knew that my never﹣ ending（7） for laughter from kids，no matter how（8） ，was in my blood.
I tell you all this because after a lot of soul﹣searching，I've come to realize that I'll never be able to（9） my past success.I need our relationship to grow.I need to be able to talk to my children about topics（10） how a witch's car goes " broom，broom."
Thus，I'm offering my entire（11） of jokes for sale on the open market.I'm（12） with them all and it feels like the right time to sell my legacy（遗产） to some（13） new dad.As with all great works of art，my jokes are（14） .But I can tell you that the first time you get your kid to laugh at the line"I don't trust lifts because they always（15） you down，" you' ll feel it's worth any price.

19．（25分）When I was in fifth grade，you could have told me，"Colin，it's not cool to wear the same pair of sweatpants every day，"but I was comfortable.You could have told me，"Colin，it's not cool to go to the school dance and do the Macarena（赛前舞）."I would not have stopped.You could have even told me，"Colin，it's not cool to be an active member of your local church's clown road show."
Then I went to sixth grade，and all of a sudden，there were only two options.I could somehow be cool，or I could somehow be invisible.I was doing pretty well at option two until the third period on the first day，when our teacher Mrs.Smith had﹣us fill out a questionnaire with"get to know you"questions.I assumed that she would be reading them privately.So I felt safe to share from the perspective of the sweatpants﹣wearing，Macarena﹣dancing，Christian﹣ clowning little snowflake that I was.
The teacher collected the sheets，mixed them up，and redistributed them to the class.We'd read the student's name and our three favorite answers.My sheet ended up in the hands of a kid who was one of the coolest and meanest.His"favorite answers"of mine were the three worst ones to be read out loud.The first question was"What's your favorite movie?"The other kids wrote Scream and Universal Soldier.He read my answer，Beauty and the Beast.A laugh erupted from the room，and my cheeks burned.The next question he read was"Where would you like to travel?"The others had said"Australia"，"Japan."I wrote"wherever a book takes me."The laughter this time had an explosive quality to it.
The final question was"What do you like to do on the weekends?"The other kids wrote"hang out with friends"and"go to the mall."I wrote"perform with Clowns for Christ."Those who weren't laughing at me were sort of staring at me in disgust.I felt about an inch tall.I fixed my eyes on the floor and tried to figure out if I could somehow disappear.

注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

But then something amazing happened.____________
I looked at my teacher with gratitude._______________

【解答】（1）推理判断题。根据As we are a food manufacturing facility，there is no glass or pets（with the exception of service animals） allowed inside.（因为我们是食品制造工厂，所以不允许玻璃或宠物（服务动物除外）进入。）可知服务性的动物可以进入，导盲犬属于服务性的动物，因此如有必要，游客可以带上导盲犬。故选D。

12．（10分）When 16﹣year﹣old Grayden Brunet joined the Sackets Harbor，New York，volunteer fire department in 2017，he was the youngest on the team in 20 years.He was so thrilled to be following in his dad's footsteps that he persuaded two classmates，Niklas Brazie and Dalton Hardison，to sign up too.
A few years later，the older firefighters quit over COVID﹣19 concerns.Suddenly，the three teens were not only helping the Sackets Harbor volunteer fire department，they were the Sackets Harbor volunteer fire department.They were the ones responding to heart attacks，car accidents，and suicides.They were the ones speeding COVID﹣19 patients to hospitals.
"We went from not even having our licenses to saving people's lives，"Dalton told.
Columbia Broadcasting System（CBS）.
As far as the teens were concerned，they couldn't quit.If they did，Grayden told North County Public Radio（NCPR），"The community would lose the ambulance."
The trio（三人组） worked hard alone for a year until help arrived in the form of five more teens，all motivated to serve their neighbors in the town of 1，300."When they call 911，they're expecting someone to help them，"says Sophia DeVito，who was 16 when she joined.
The job is demanding.One night last fall，the crew responded to two ambulance calls and a fire.They got home at 5：30 a.m.，just two hours before school started."It's definitely hard coming back from the calls and having to take an algebra test，"Grayden told NCPR.But they don't mind the exhausting work.And the looks on the faces of 911 callers when they meet their rescuers?Priceless，says Grayden Brunet.

【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了三个青少年在加入了消防队之后为社区所做的贡献，以及他们所承担的辛苦。
【解答】（1）推理判断题。根据第一段When 16﹣year﹣old Grayden Brunet joined the Sackets Harbor，New York，volunteer fire department in 2017，he was the youngest on the team in 20 years.He was so thrilled to be following in his dad's footsteps that he persuaded two classmates，Niklas Brazie and Dalton Hardison，to sign up too.（2017年，16岁的格雷登•布鲁特（Grayden Brunet）加入纽约萨克斯港（Sackets Harbor，New York）志愿消防队，成为该队20年来最年轻的队员。他很高兴能追随父亲的脚步，于是他说服了两位同学，尼古拉斯•布拉西和道尔顿•哈迪逊，也加入了。）可知根据第一段，我们可以知道格雷登不是家里第一个消防员。故选A。
（2）细节理解题。根据第二段A few years later，the older firefighters quit over COVID﹣19 concerns.（几年后，年长的消防员因担心新冠肺炎而辞职。）可知年长的消防员离职是因为病毒使他们感到恐慌和不安全。故选D。
（3）推理判断题。根据第五段 As far as the teens were concerned，they couldn't quit.（就青少年而言，他们不能放弃。）可知这些十几岁的青少年是意志坚定的。故选C。
（4）推理判断题。根据最后一段They got home at 5：30 a.m.，just two hours before school started."It's definitely hard coming back from the calls and having to take an algebra test，"Grayden told NCPR.But they don't mind the exhausting work.And the looks on the faces of 911 callers when they meet their rescuers?Priceless，says Grayden Brunet.（他们早上5：30到家，就在开学前两个小时。格雷登告诉NCPR："从电话中回来，还要参加代数测试，肯定很难。"。但他们不介意努力地工作。还有911呼叫者遇到救援人员时的表情?格雷登•布鲁特说，这是无价的。）可知最后一段的主要意思是船员们发现他们的工作既富有挑战性，又有回报。故选C。

13．（10分）The entire country struggled with the unprecedented heat of the July 2022 heatwave，but for the disabled，the heat hit even harder.The climate crisis is a threat to everyone's health，but according to a report in 2021，people with disabilities are more vulnerable to the extreme weather events and natural disasters that result from the climate crisis.
Professor Kristie Ebi of the Centre for Health and the Global at the University of Washington，described the topic of heatwaves and disabled people as being an important issue."Groups at higher risk during periods of high temperature include people with chronic（慢性的） medical conditions，people who take certain medications that can reduce the ability of the body to sweat，and the disabled"，notes Ebi，going on to describe the different threats that heatwaves pose for different types of disabilities.Ebi notes the difficulty people with mobility issues or blindness may have with accessing services，such as cooling shelters.Ebi also comments on the importance of making messageing on the dangers of high temperatures accessible to those with learning disabilities or to deaf people."Some studies suggest higher rates of suicide and other mental health issues during heatwaves，requiring targeted help for those with mental disabilities，"she added.
Ailsa Speak，a disability and lifestyle blogger，experiences uncontrollable movements in the heat due to her cerebral palsy（脑瘫）."As you can imagine，when my involuntary movements increase，I get even hotter.It's just a painful circle really."
In the absence of a concrete set of plans for people with disabilities during the climate crisis and extreme weather events，people with disabilities continue to be at increased risk of heat﹣related disease.
To prevent future death and destruction，the Climate Change Committee（CCC），an independent organization tackling climate change，advocates for adaptation planning，as the temperature is set to rise further due to the climate crisis and global warming.The CCC's2022 report on the health risks of overheating offers adaptation options to the government to ensum that buildings are fit for future climate change.Nevertheless，the publication does not offer specific advice about people with disabilities and overheating，which thus remains to be discussed promptly and thoroughly.

（1）The underlined word " vulnerable " in Paragraph 1 possibly means B .
A.defensive
B.delicate
C.experienced
D.adaptable
（2）Which of the following would Professor Ebi most probably agree with? C
A.Heatwaves make people with chronic diseases suffer most.
B.The mentally disabled have no access to cooling shelters.
C.Some disabled people are ill﹣informed about the risks of heatwaves.
D.Mobility disability contributes to higher risk of suicide in the heatwaves.
（3）Why does the author mention Ailsa Speak? C
A.To share a disabled blogger's painful life.
B.To show what a terrible disease cerebral palsy is.
C.To illustrate the trouble the disabled have in the heat.
D.To prove the never﹣before﹣seen highs in temperature.
（4）The author's purpose of writing this passage is to A .
A.stress the urgent need to care for the disabled in the heat
B.suggest methods of helping the disabled in heatwaves
C.tell readers how severe the July 2022 heatwave was
D.introduce adaptation alternatives for future buildings
【分析】本文主要讲述了气候危机导致的极端天气事件和自然灾害威胁着残疾人，我们需要在炎热的天气里照顾残疾人。
【解答】（1）词义猜测题。根据划线词所在的句子The climate crisis is a threat to everyone's health，but according to a report in 2021，people with disabilities are more vulnerable to the extreme weather events and natural disasters that result from the climate crisis.（气候危机对每个人的健康都构成威胁，但根据2021年的一份报告，残疾人更容易受到气候危机造成的极端天气事件和自然灾害的影响。）可知划线词的意思是"脆弱的"。A.defensive防御性的；B.delicate脆弱的；C.experienced有经验的；D.adaptable适应性强的。故选B。
（2）推理判断题。根据第二段"Some studies suggest higher rates of suicide and other mental health issues during heatwaves，requiring targeted help for those with mental disabilities，"she added.（她补充道："一些研究表明，在热浪中自杀和其他心理健康问题的发生率更高，需要对精神残疾者进行有针对性的帮助。"）可知Ebi教授最可能同意：一些残疾人对热浪的风险知之甚少。故选C。
（3）推理判断题。根据倒数第三段Ailsa Speak，a disability and lifestyle blogger，experiences uncontrollable movements in the heat due to her cerebral palsy（脑瘫）."As you can imagine，when my involuntary movements increase，I get even hotter.It's just a painful circle really."（残疾和生活方式博客作家艾尔莎•斯佩克（Ailsa Speak）因脑瘫在炎热中经历了无法控制的运动。"你可以想象，当我的非自愿运动增加时，我会变得更热。这真的是一个痛苦的循环。"）可知作者提到艾尔莎讲话是为了说明残疾人面临的困境。故选C。
（4）目的意图题。阅读全文以及根据第一段The entire country struggled with the unprecedented heat of the July 2022 heatwave，but for the disabled，the heat hit even harder.The climate crisis is a threat to everyone's health，but according to a report in 2021，people with disabilities are more vulnerable to the extreme weather events and natural disasters that result from the climate crisis.（整个国家都在与2022年7月前所未有的酷暑作斗争，但对于残疾人来说，酷暑更为严重。气候危机威胁着每个人的健康，但根据2021的一份报告，残疾人更容易受到气候危机导致的极端天气事件和自然灾害的影响。）可知本文主要讲述了气候危机导致的极端天气事件和自然灾害威胁着残疾人，所以目的是强调迫切需要在炎热的天气里照顾残疾人。故选A。

14．（10分）The clumsy and big guy in my pocket—heavy and old﹣fashioned flip（翻盖） phone，let me salute you.
I can't remember how long we've been together.Seven years or more?Even back then，you were out of date.The salesman in the phone store spoke warmly of your indestructibility，as if that were your prime virtue.He said I could throw you against a wall if I wanted，and you'd just bounce off.But I would never do that.
Why can't I quit you?First，the obvious thing：You are not connected to the Internet.So for me，you are a little brick of privacy.And by privacy I don't mean my identity card number or family information or whatever—I mean the fragile sphere of imagination in which I exist when I'm not wandering online.I mean what's left of my non﹣digital self.When I close your two halves，that's it.
Second，you've become rather talismanic（护身符般的），socially.It's like hanging around with an unsocial friend：I enjoy watching people react to you.When I hold you，wave you around，I get sighs of pity and confusion，especially from the young."Look at you，man，"somebody said to me the other day when I took you out to exchange numbers."Look at you."
We're out of the dream，you and me.When I have two spare minutes，I don't pull you out and stare at you，attracted，moving my fingertips across your surface.I stand around like a spare part，hands in my pockets.I feel the breeze on my face.I hear the hum of the city and the hum of my brain.Do I have the energy to send a text?I frown when I text.Sometimes I sweat.I smash your noisy little buttons；it sounds like I'm operating a telegraph.Three clicks to get to aC—tack﹣tack﹣tack and two more for an E.A decent sentence can take me 10 minutes.Anybody who gets a text from me knows I mean it.
What will I do when you go?Your name is Kyocera，king of kings.You are a black monument in the desert of Time.

（1）What do we know about the old phone in terms of privacy? A
A.It can allow the author room for imagination.
B.It may let out the identity information of the author.
C.It features a very reliable network security system.
D.It keeps others from knowing the author's family.
（2）How does the author feel when he goes out with his"unsocial friend"? C
A.He feels pity for the young people.
B.He feels sad for being the special one.
C.He feels pleased to see others' response.
D.He feels confused about people's behavior.
（3）When his friends receive a message from the author，they A .
A.should take the message very seriously
B.must regard the message as a telegraph
C.will blame the author for his being slow
D.may misunderstand the text's meaning
（4）Which of the following can be the best title for the text? B
A.The Friend Keeping Me Connected.
B.A Deep Respect for My Flip Phone.
C.A Digital World in the Desert of Time.
D.The Importance of a Powerful Phone.
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。作者写这篇文章致敬他的那个笨重又老式的翻盖手机，因为他觉得使用这款手机有很多好处。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据第三段中And by privacy I don't mean my identity card number or family information or whatever—I mean the fragile sphere of imagination in which I exist when I'm not wandering online.（我所说的隐私并不是指我的身份证号码、家庭信息或其他信息﹣﹣我指的是当我不在网上闲逛时，我所有的脆弱的想象空间。）可知，从隐私的角度看，旧手机可以给作者提供想象的空间。故选A。
（2）细节理解题。根据第四段中Second，you've become rather talismanic，socially.It's like hanging around with an unsocial friend：I enjoy watching people react to you.（第二，你在社交上变得相当有魅力。这就像和一个不合群的朋友在一起：我喜欢看别人对你的反应。）可知，当作者和他的"不合群的朋友"外出时，他很高兴看到别人的反应。故选C。
（3）推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后一句Anybody who gets a text from me knows I mean it.（任何收到我短信的人都知道我是认真的。）可以判断，当作者的朋友收到作者的消息时，他们应该认真对待这个信息，故选A。
（4）标题概括题。阅读全文可知，第一句The clumsy and big guy in my pocket—heavy and old﹣fashioned flip phone，let me salute you.（我口袋里那个笨重又大的家伙﹣﹣笨重又老式的翻盖手机，我向你致敬。）为本文主题句，所以B项A Deep Respect for My Flip Phone.（对我的翻盖手机深表敬意）可作为文章标题，故选B。

第二节（共1小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
15．（12.5分）Many Brits firmly believe that no task，from studying to data entry to putting up a shelf，can be accomplished without a good cup of tea.（1） F Tea is the response to various situations：waking up，breaking up，meeting a friend，feeling uncomfortable，or feeling happy.How you take your tea indicates your social class and personality.
（2） C At first，it was popular among the nobles and then the British East India Company began to import much more tea from the Far East，where it had been grown and drink for thousands of years.（3） B Tea is one of the few experiences in Britain that cuts across social class divides，race，ethnicity，and income levels.It also gives socially awkward Brits something to do with their hands.
Tea is traditionally brewed in a pot and poured out into individual cups.Most people，however，could not afford fine bone china.The cups they did have would often crack under the heat of the boiling tea.Milk was therefore added first to the cups to lessen the heat of the hot tea and keep the cups complete.（4） A In modern times，the " milk first " issue is a hot topic.Friendships have been lost over whether it's correct to add milk to your cup before the tea or after.
Kate Fox，the author of Watching the English，notes that milk in tea also gives off social clues to Britain's all﹣important social class system.According to Fox，the strongest black tea is drunk by the working class，who have to reduce the bitter taste with plenty of milk and sugar to make " builder 's tea."（5） E Tea communicates a lot，from social standing to emotional state，which is useful for the British，who tend to be suspicious of emotional displays.Best just to have a nice cup of tea instead.

A.Many people apparently grew to like the taste.
B.The price fell，and suddenly every Briton had a tea habit.
C.Tea has been an important part of British civilization for nearly 300 years.
D.That's almost 36 billion cups per year，divided among British men，women，and children.
E.Therefore，taking sugar in your tea is regarded by many as a lower﹣class indicator.
F.Some even measure the length of a task by how many cups of tea are required to finish it.
G.Scientists note that cold milk poured into hot tea heats unevenly and can give tea an awful top.
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了茶的历史以及发展。
【解答】（1）推理判断题。根据上一句Many Brits firmly believe that no task，from studying to data entry to putting up a shelf，can be accomplished without a good cup of tea.（许多英国人坚信，没有一杯好茶，从学习到数据录入再到搭建架子，任何任务都无法完成。）可知此处说的是没有茶，许多任务是无法完成的。所以F.Some even measure the length of a task by how many cups of tea are required to finish it.（有些人甚至用完成一项任务需要多少杯茶来衡量它的长度。）符合语境。故选F。（2）细节理解题。根据下一句At first，it was popular among the nobles and then the British East India Company began to import much more tea from the Far East，where it had been grown and drink for thousands of years.（起初，它在贵族中很受欢迎，然后英国东印度公司开始从远东进口更多茶叶，远东茶叶在那里种植和饮用了数千年。）可知此处说的是一开始，茶英国贵族中流行。所以C.Tea has been an important part of British civilization for nearly 300 years.（近300年来，茶一直是英国文明的重要组成部分。）符合语境。故选C。（3）推理判断题。根据下一句Tea is one of the few experiences in Britain that cuts across social class divides，race，ethnicity，and income levels.（茶是英国为数不多的跨越社会阶层、种族、民族和收入水平的体验之一。）可知此处说的是英国的各个阶层开始对茶有了了解。所以B.The price fell，and suddenly every Briton had a tea habit.（价格下跌，突然间每个英国人都有喝茶的习惯。）符合语境。故选B。（4）推理判断题。根据一句Friendships have been lost over whether it's correct to add milk to your cup before the tea or after.（在现代，"牛奶第一"问题是一个热门话题。在喝茶前或喝茶后往杯子里加牛奶是否正确，这已经失去了友谊。）可知此处说的是为了保持杯子的完整，开始在茶里加牛奶。所以A.Many people apparently grew to like the taste.（许多人显然渐渐喜欢上了这种味道。）符合语境。故选A。（5）推理判断题。根据上一句According to Fox，the strongest black tea is drunk by the working class，who have to reduce the bitter taste with plenty of milk and sugar to make " builder 's tea."（据福克斯称，最浓烈的红茶是工人阶级喝的，他们必须用大量牛奶和糖来减少苦味，才能制成"建筑茶"。）可知此处说的是为了减少苦味，开始在茶里加糖。所以E.Therefore，taking sugar in your tea is regarded by many as a lower﹣class indicator.（因此，茶中含糖被许多人视为低级指标。）符合语境。故选E。
【点评】七选五阅读是完成性阅读，和完形填空很类似，不同的是一个选词，一个选句子。解题时，要注意上下文语境，充分考虑信息词（选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词），选出最符合语境的句子。
第三部分 语言运用（共两节；满分15分）第一节（共1小题；每小题15分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

"...Nobody knows!"
"Stop it，Dad!"
I'm pretty sure I heard him say"Sorry about my dad"to his friends as they all ran（5） C to play on their phones together.
I used to be the life of every party.When I was only an uncle，all the kids loved my jokes.Sure，there were other dads with theirs，but I felt as if（6） B ever stole my honour.My wife long ago turned a blind eye to me，but she knew that my never﹣ ending（7） A for laughter from kids，no matter how（8） C ，was in my blood.
I tell you all this because after a lot of soul﹣searching，I've come to realize that I'll never be able to（9） B my past success.I need our relationship to grow.I need to be able to talk to my children about topics（10） A how a witch's car goes " broom，broom."
Thus，I'm offering my entire（11） D of jokes for sale on the open market.I'm（12） A with them all and it feels like the right time to sell my legacy（遗产） to some（13） C new dad.As with all great works of art，my jokes are（14） D .But I can tell you that the first time you get your kid to laugh at the line"I don't trust lifts because they always（15） C you down，" you' ll feel it's worth any price.

解题步骤：
1.通读全文，理解大意。重视首句信息，跳过空格，浏览全文，从整体上感知全文，理解文章大意，这是解题的基础。
2.瞻前顾后，避难就易。在理解文章大意的情况下，结合各选项的意义和用法，遵循先易后难的原则，先解决那些自己有把握的问题。对少数难题，暂时跳过，或许在上文中难以判断的题在下文中就有暗示或者明显的提示，或许一个在前面不能解答的题在填出了另一空后会令你豁然开朗。
3.复读全文，解决残敌。借助已经补全的空格，对全文有了更清楚的理解，可以集中解决所遗留的少数疑难问题。
4.再次复读，弥补疏漏，全部做好后，务必要结合自己选择的答案重新阅读短文内容，确保全文文意连贯。

【分析】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了位于亚利桑那州北部的大峡谷国家公园。
【解答】（1）考查可数名词的复数。句意：位于亚利桑那州北部的大峡谷国家公园是世界上最壮观的侵蚀例子之一。前面有one of，所以用名词复数，故填examples。
（2）考查现在分词。句意：河长约277英里，宽达18英里，深1英里，是一个真正的自然奇观。measure和主语之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词作状语，放在句首，所以开头字母要大写，故填Measuring。
（3）考查冠词。句意：河长约277英里，宽达18英里，深1英里，是一个真正的自然奇观。泛指一个，所以用不定冠词，故填a。
（4）考查动词时态。句意：在过去的几个世纪里，来自世界各地的人们纷纷前往大峡谷，欣赏它红色和橙色的壮丽景色。根据时间状语over the past few centuries，可知用现在完成时态，也可以表示"一直是"，所以用现在完成进行时，故填have traveled/have been traveling。
（5）考查副词。句意：大峡谷由国家公园管理局管理，并被联合国教科文组织正式选为世界遗产，每年约600万游客给它留下了深刻的印象。修饰动词，所以用副词，故填officially。
（6）考查过去分词。句意：大峡谷由国家公园管理局管理，并被联合国教科文组织正式选为世界遗产，每年约600万游客给它留下了深刻的印象。leave的宾语和impress之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词作宾补，故填impressed。
（7）考查非限制性定语从句。句意：大峡谷南缘，大峡谷村和久经沙场的光明天使步道就坐落于此，对许多观光客和徒步旅行者都有极大的吸引力。先行词为地点名词，在非限制性定语从句中作地点状语，故填where。
（8）考查介词。句意：大峡谷南缘，大峡谷村和久经沙场的光明天使步道就坐落于此，对许多观光客和徒步旅行者都有极大的吸引力。表示"对于"，后跟名词，所以用介词for，故填for。
（9）考查祈使句。句意：想要远离人群，可以去北缘。本句为祈使句，所以用动词原形开头，故填head。
（10）考查动名词。句意：想要欣赏难忘的峡谷美景，可以考虑报名参加直升机之旅。consider doing sth."考虑做某事"，为固定搭配，故填signing。
【点评】做本题的关键是在理解短文的基础上，灵活运用所学的基础知识。本类型的题目常考到的知识点有：固定的短语，词类的转换，名词的复数形式，副词以及祈使句的用法等。因此，这就需要在平时的学习中，牢固掌握各语言点及一些语法知识。

19．（25分）When I was in fifth grade，you could have told me，"Colin，it's not cool to wear the same pair of sweatpants every day，"but I was comfortable.You could have told me，"Colin，it's not cool to go to the school dance and do the Macarena（赛前舞）."I would not have stopped.You could have even told me，"Colin，it's not cool to be an active member of your local church's clown road show."
Then I went to sixth grade，and all of a sudden，there were only two options.I could somehow be cool，or I could somehow be invisible.I was doing pretty well at option two until the third period on the first day，when our teacher Mrs.Smith had﹣us fill out a questionnaire with"get to know you"questions.I assumed that she would be reading them privately.So I felt safe to share from the perspective of the sweatpants﹣wearing，Macarena﹣dancing，Christian﹣ clowning little snowflake that I was.
The teacher collected the sheets，mixed them up，and redistributed them to the class.We'd read the student's name and our three favorite answers.My sheet ended up in the hands of a kid who was one of the coolest and meanest.His"favorite answers"of mine were the three worst ones to be read out loud.The first question was"What's your favorite movie?"The other kids wrote Scream and Universal Soldier.He read my answer，Beauty and the Beast.A laugh erupted from the room，and my cheeks burned.The next question he read was"Where would you like to travel?"The others had said"Australia"，"Japan."I wrote"wherever a book takes me."The laughter this time had an explosive quality to it.
The final question was"What do you like to do on the weekends?"The other kids wrote"hang out with friends"and"go to the mall."I wrote"perform with Clowns for Christ."Those who weren't laughing at me were sort of staring at me in disgust.I felt about an inch tall.I fixed my eyes on the floor and tried to figure out if I could somehow disappear.

I looked at my teacher with gratitude._______________
【分析】本文为记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者在史密斯太太的课堂上回答问题，遭到同学们的嘲笑。
高分句型一：So ashamed were the boys that they all hung their heads，with the color flooding their cheeks.
译文：男孩们都很羞愧，都低着头，脸颊泛着红晕。
分析：这句话使用了so+形容词+倒装句，还有with复合结构。
高分句型二：With time slipping away，vague as Mrs.Smith's appearance becomes in my mind，her words are still ringing in my cars，always motivating me to voice my own ideas.
译文：随着时间的流逝，随着史密斯夫人的模糊不清在我脑海中浮现，她的话仍在我的车里回荡，总是激励我说出自己的想法。
分析：这句话使用了with复合结构，as引导让步状语从句的倒装句，motivating me to voice my own ideas是现在分词短语作状语。
【解答】But then，something amazing happened.A soft but determined voice from the back of the room said，"guys，cut it out."A spark of surprise flashed across everyone's face and the entire room went silent.Following the voice，the class saw our teacher，Mrs.Smith，with her arms folded，frowning like a thunderstorm.Disappointment written all over her face，she broke the silence and continued，"What is the point of making fun of each other?"So ashamed were the boys that they all hung their heads，with the color flooding their cheeks. 【高分句型一】A mixture of warmth and relief washed over me.（史密斯太太责备同学们不应该嘲笑作者）
I looked at my teacher with gratitude.Meanwhile，she cast an encouraging smile at me and softened her tone，"let's give Colin a big round of applause and thank him for sharing with his unique answers."Deeply touched and feeling a lump in my throat，I bowed to her and the whole class.At that very moment，it stuck me that we actually had three options.Instead of being either cool or invisible，we could choose to speak up for ourselves and make our distinctive opinions heard.With time slipping away，vague as Mrs.Smith's appearance becomes in my mind，her words are still ringing in my cars，always motivating me to voice my own ideas.【高分句型二】（史密斯老师鼓励作者说出自己的观点）
【点评】解题方法点拨
（1）品读原文。确定文章线索
每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路，通过精读文章，找到该篇文章的写作线索。如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜（结尾）"。
（2）仔细审题，明确续写要求
一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此类短文续写的具体要求，如词数限制使用几处标有下划线的关键词语。续写段落的首句提示，这样考生可以做到"心中有数"。
（3）回扣原文，揣摩续写思路
根据文章后面的要求，再次快速阅读短文，抓住文章的思路结合段首的提示语最终确定续写段落的思路。同时结合文章画线词语提示，确定续写段落的内容。
（4）拟写草稿，修改错词病句
在确定了思路和内容之后。最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中画线的关键词拟写草稿。拟写时，注意句子结构的多样性，语言的丰富性，并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用，使上下文连贯。
