B
I was in the seventh grade, and we had moved to New Jersey in November. By then, everyone already had had their own friends, and no one wanted to talk to a new girl. To make things worse, they put me in “Section L”. I found out later that everyone called Section L “Loserville”. It was sort of an open secret that it was the section for troublemakers and not-so-smart kids. When I found out, I wanted to scream. I had always been a good student and had amazing friends, and now everyone thought I was a loser!
I did text my friends in Illinois almost every night, especially my best friend, Ana. At first my friends wanted to hear all about it. But then some stopped texting back once I said something about how miserable I was. One night when I was texting with Ana, I complained about another friend who had just done that.
Ana’s texts came really fast for the next few minutes and they surprised me. She said that she was tired of hearing about how bad everything was in New Jersey, too. She said she did not want to hurt my feelings but that I needed to stop feeling so sorry for myself all the time, I had to try to make things better.
The next day, I thought a lot about what Ana had said. She was right!
I wish I could say that everything changed overnight after that, but it didn’t. I was still stuck in “Loserville”, and some people were still mean to me, even though I tried to just stay out of their way.
But what did change was me—I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and did something about making friends. I signed up to make sets for the school play. I met a lot of new people there, and suddenly I had friends to say hi to in the halls!
I still miss Illinois sometimes, but life in New Jersey isn’t so hard anymore. Even though I couldn’t change my situation, I could change my attitude—and that made all the difference.
4. “Loserville” is a section for ________.
A. failures B. good students
C. class secrets D. newcomers
5. The writer complained all the time in the new environment because ________.
A. Ana didn’t text back to her B. her friends hurt her feelings
C. she was unfairly treated D. she was a good student
6. What made a difference in changing the situation?
A. She went back to Illinois.
B. She ended friendship with Ana.
C. She fought back with her classmates.
D. She began to make friends with others.
7. The best title for the passage can be ________.
A. Lasting Friendship B. An Incidence at School
C. Say Goodbye to “Loserville” D. Unhappiness in “Loserville”
【4~7题答案】
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文阅读。文章主要讲了作者在上七年级的时候，搬到了新泽西。在那里的学校，作者被放到了代表“失败者”的“Loserville”区，受到了不公平地对待，作者尽自己最大的努力，想要告别 “Loserville”。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。答案定位在第一段It was sort of an open secret that it was the section for troublemakers and not-so-smart kids.（这是一个公开的秘密，这是一个闹事者和不太聪明的孩子的区域。）和I had always been a good student and had amazing friends, and now everyone thought I was a loser!（一直是个好学生，有很棒的朋友，现在每个人都认为我是个失败者!）由此推断出“Loserville”是一个失败者待着的地方，故选A。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。答案定位在第二段But then some stopped texting back once I said something about how miserable I was.（但当我说我有多痛苦时，有些人就不再回我的短信了。）由此可知作者在新环境中一直抱怨，因为她受到不公平的待遇，故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。答案定位在倒数第二段But what did change was me—I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and did something about making friends.（但真正改变我的是我自己——我不再为自己感到难过，而是做了一些关于交朋友的事情。）由此可知她开始和别人交朋友，改变了情况，故选D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。这篇文章主要讲了作者在上七年级的时候，搬到了新泽西。在那里的学校，作者被放到了代表“失败者”的“Loserville”区，受到了不公平地对待，作者尽自己最大的努力，想要告别 “Loserville”。所以这篇文章最好的题目是《和“Loserville”说再见》，故选C。
【点睛】细节理解题的解题思路：
细节理解题就是我们常见的wh-题，它们大多是根据文章中的具体信息如事实、例证、原因、过程、论述等进行提问的。抓住文段中的事实和细节是做好该题型的关键，也是做好其它类型问题的基础。该题型几乎都可以在文章中直接找到与答案有关的信息，或是其变体。在一篇短文里大部分篇幅都属于这类围绕主体展开的细节，做这类题一般采用寻读法，即先读题，然后带着问题快速阅读短文，找出与问题和选项有关的词语或句子，再对相关部分进行分析对比，找出答案。例如小题3，答案定位在倒数第二段But what did change was me—I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and did something about making friends.（但真正改变我的是我自己——我不再为自己感到难过，而是做了一些关于交朋友的事情。）由此可知她开始和别人交朋友，改变了情况，故选D。
C
World’s loneliest marathon
Many of us know about Russia’s Lake Baikal from our textbooks, or by listening to Chinese singer Li Jian’s hit song, Lake Baikal. But over the past decade, the world’s deepest freshwater lake has been in the spotlight for an extreme sport.
Each March since 2005 about 150 people from around the world sign up for the Baikal Ice Marathon. They come to explore the lake’s breathtaking beauty and challenge themselves in unpredictable conditions.
The 26-mile (41.84-kilometers) journey starts on the lake’s eastern shore. In March, the ice is a meter thick and iron-hard. Runners cross this frozen surface, finishing on the western side of the lake.
Known as the “blue eye of Siberia”, Lake Baikal has exceptionally clear waters. This means its ice is almost perfectly transparent. “Seen from above, a runner on the ice looks as if he or she is jogging through space,” The New York Times noted.
The landscape might be beautiful, but it’s also harsh. Strong winds blast across the lake and frostbite can occur within half an hour. Runners say the cold climate is what draws them. They want to test their limits.
“When you are in such an environment, you don’t have cars around you, you don’t have the noise around. I think these extreme races allow you to be alone with nature,” Alicja Barahona, a 64-year-old runner from the US, told ABC News.
The location offers some strange and unique characteristics for this marathon. The finish line is visible from the start, but the endless white offers no progress markers. The race also ends with little fanfare (喧闹). Tourists crowding the ice are mostly addicted to snapping selfies (自拍) and just ignore the runners.
For some runners, the absence of spectators (观众) makes the race more challenging, because it’s lonely. They must fight with themselves. “You are alone on Baikal. It is your race. You are alone with yourself. All you need to do is to defeat yourself,” Veronique Messina, a French runner, told the Telegraph.
8. What can we know about the Baikal Ice Marathon from the article?
A. It takes runners from the northern end to the southern end of the lake.
B. It involves extreme weather and beautiful scenery.
C. It attracts more and more participants each year.
D. It is about 26 kilometers in length.
9. In Paragraph 5, the underlined word “harsh” probably means _______.
A. interesting B. mysterious
C. severe D. safe
10. How does the Baikal Ice Marathon differ from other marathons?
A. Only men are allowed to run in this race.
B. The runners can see the finish line from the start.
C. The runners are often distracted by tourists.
D. There are many progress markers on the ice.
11. What is the most challenging part of the race for Messina?
A. Loneliness. B. The long distance.
C. The cold climate. D. Noisy surroundings.
【8~11题答案】
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了世界上最孤独的马拉松是在贝加尔湖畔。自2005年以来，每年3月，来自世界各地的人报名参加贝加尔湖冰马拉松。他们来这里探索湖泊的美丽，并在不可预知的条件下挑战自己，测试自己的极限。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Each March since 2005, about 150 people from around the world sign up for the Baikal Ice Marathon. They come to explore the lake’s breathtaking beauty and challenge themselves in unpredictable conditions. ” 自2005年以来，每年三月都会有来自世界各地的150人报名参加贝加尔湖冰上马拉松。他们来这里是为了探索湖的美，在不可预知的条件下挑战自己。由此可知冰马拉松涉及极端的天气和美丽的风景，故选B。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“Strong winds blast across the lake and frostbite can occur within half an hour.” 强风吹过湖面，半小时内就会冻伤，由此可推断上文的转折应该是天气也是残酷的，由此可知，harsh同severe同义，意为“残酷的，恶劣的”，故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第七段“The location offers some strange and unique characteristics for this marathon. The finish line is visible from the start, but the endless white offers no progress markers.” 这个地点为这次马拉松比赛提供了一些奇怪而独特的特点。从一开始就可以看到终点线，但无尽的白色没有任何进展标记。由此可知从一开始就看到终点线成为冰马拉松的独特特点，故选B。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“For some runners, the absence of spectators (观众) makes the race more challenging, because it’s lonely.” 对于一些赛跑者来说，缺少观众使得比赛更具挑战性，因为比赛很孤单。因此孤单是比赛最具挑战的那部分。故选A。
【点睛】词义猜测题，要根据词、词组、句子所在的语境上下文来判断其意义。因此熟练掌握一些猜词技巧是做好这类题的关键。
1.根据定义或上下文解释进行猜测。有时短文中出现一个需要猜测其意义的词或短语，下面接着出现其定义或解释，这就是判断该词或短语意义的主要依据。
2.根据同位关系进行猜测。阅读中出现的难词有时后面紧跟一个同位语，对前面的词进行解释，这时可利用同位关系对前面或后面的词义或句意进行猜测。
3.根据构词法(前缀、后缀、复合、派生等)进行猜测。在英语中，有很多词可以在前面加前缀，在后面加后缀，从而构成一个词，乍看起来，这个词可能是新词，但掌握了一定构词知识，就不难猜出它的词义。
4.根据因果关系进行猜测。在一篇阅读文章中，根据原因可以预测结果，根据结果也可以找出原因。
5. 根据上下文的指代关系进行猜测。文章中的代词it, that, he, him 或them可以指上文提到的人或物，其中it和that还可以指一件事。有时代词指代的对象相隔较远，要认真查找;也有时需要对前面提到的内容进行总结，才能得出代词所指代的事。
6.根据同义关系进行猜测。当词或短语之间有并列连词and 或or时，其连接的两项内容在含义上是接近的或递进的，由此确定同等关系中的某个生词所属的义域，由此可推知其大致意思。
7.根据转折或对比关系进行猜测.根据上下句的连接词，如but, however, otherwise等就可以看到前后句在意义上的差别，从而依据某一句的含义，来确定另一句的含义。另外，分号也可以表示转折、对比或不相干的意义。
例如小题2就是通过上下文解释来进行猜测的，故选C。
D
When I moved into my apartment in Toronto, the path forward of my immigrant life wasn’t clear. I was busy figuring out a new language and culture. I didn’t know anyone well in Toronto and wasn’t sure if I wanted to stay. As time passed, I grew roots into the ground while taking pictures of the garden next door.
My studies required me to take exams which I prepared for in the evenings, after work. My mother visited to take care of me. Once she arrived in Toronto, I showed her a few places she could wander to in the neighborhood. One day, on arriving home in the evening, I found her waiting for me.
“You will not believe it,” she said “Your neighbor talked to me today. She called me over to show me her garden, but I did not want to go empty-handed, so I snatched (一把抓起) the garden pictures from the shelves and gave them to her. She wanted to know about us.” I rang them and got an invitation that same evening.
My neighbors were incredibly welcoming. They “adopted” me that evening. Immigrants themselves, Ann and John were curious about me. They told us about their lives and their grandchildren.
Over the years, I felt like I became an extended member of their family. Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, birthdays, I was at Ann and John’s. They helped me embrace my new Canadian identity.
After graduation, I got a chance that meant I needed to move west. I didn’t get back to Toronto much, but when John’s 90th birthday came along, I couldn’t miss it.
Countless family and friends came to their house and its magic garden to celebrate John’s spirit. I stepped away to let myself navigate (穿行) those familiar garden paths, and there, I met Michael. Michael ended up joining me out west, and when we decided to get married, we immediately called Ann and John.
“You are having your wedding here!” they said. We could not refuse that offer. My parents couldn’t make it to our wedding. Age, disease and distance shattered (使破灭) my hopes of having them witness our happiness. But Ann and John, our other families and friends did not let any shadow fall over that day.
Many seasons have now passed. Ann still watches over her garden and perhaps secretly listens for John’s voice, now a memory. Life continues, but I know the garden will grow greener in spring. I cannot wait to wander its pathways again, wandering in Ann’s steps.
12. What do the first three paragraphs mainly talk about?
A. What the author’s new life in Toronto was like.
B. How the author met her neighbors.
C. How the author got along with her neighbors.
D. How the author’s mother interacted with their neighbors.
13. What does the underlined word “adopted” imply in paragraph 4?
A. Ann and John offered the author a place to live.
B. Ann and John made the author feel at home.
C. Ann and John helped the author get a new identity.
D. Ann and John became the author’s legal parents.
14. Why does the author say her neighbors’ garden was a magic garden?
A. It gave her a lot of hope and happiness.
B. It always attracted her to return to visit her neighbors.
C. It was where people gathered to celebrate John’s spirit.
D. It enabled her to meet her neighbors and her husband.
15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this article?
A. To tell how she got used to her life in Toronto.
B. To show the importance of a friendly neighborhood.
C. To introduce how she met her husband and married him.
D. To describe the close bond between her and her neighbors.
【12~15题答案】
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者是如何与邻居相识、相知和成为密友的，并表达了对邻居的思念。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。通读前三段内容，结合第一段关键句“As time passed, I grew roots into the ground while taking pictures of the garden next door.”（随着时间的推移，我一边给隔壁的花园拍照，一边融入新的环境。）和第三段关键句““You will not believe it,” she said “Your neighbor talked to me today. She called me over to show me her garden, but I did not want to go empty-handed, so I snatched (一把抓起) the garden pictures from the shelves and gave them to her. She wanted to know about us.””（“你不会相信的，”她说，“你的邻居今天跟我说话了。她叫我过来给我看她的花园，但我不想空手而去，所以我从架子上抓起花园的照片给了她。她想认识我们。”）可知，前三段讲述了作者是如何与邻居认识的，初来乍到，作者对这里并不熟悉，只是喜欢拍拍邻居家的花园，母亲来此照顾她后，因为花园的照片为她提供了认识邻居的契机，由此可知，前三段主要讲的是作者是如何认识她的邻居的。故选B项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线单词上句“My neighbors were incredibly welcoming.”（我的邻居非常热情。）和第五段关键句“Over the years, I felt like I became an extended member of their family. Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, birthdays, I was at Ann and John’s.”（这些年来，我感觉自己成了他们家庭的一员。圣诞节、复活节、感恩节、生日，我在安和约翰家度过。）可知，邻居很热情，作者经常去邻居家，各种节日和生日宴会都会参与，这让她有种成为了邻居家一份子的感觉，由此可知，画线单词“adopted”指的是安和约翰使作者感受到了家的温暖。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段关键句““You will not believe it,” she said “Your neighbor talked to me today. She called me over to show me her garden, but I did not want to go empty-handed, so I snatched (一把抓起) the garden pictures from the shelves and gave them to her. She wanted to know about us.””（“你不会相信的，”她说，“你的邻居今天跟我说话了。她叫我过来给我看她的花园，但我不想空手而去，所以我从架子上抓起花园的照片给了她。她想认识我们。”）和倒数第三段关键句“I stepped away to let myself navigate (穿行) those familiar garden paths, and there, I met Michael. Michael ended up joining me out west, and when we decided to get married, we immediately called Ann and John.”（我走开了，让自己在那些熟悉的花园小径上穿行，在那里，我遇见了迈克尔。迈克尔最终和我一起去了西部，当我们决定结婚时，我们立即给安和约翰打了电话。）可知，作者将邻居家的花园叫做“magic garden”，这是因为它让作者与邻居相识，结下了不解的缘分，并且自己与丈夫的相遇也是在邻居家的花园，由此可知，作者说她邻居的花园是一个神奇的花园是因为它使她能够遇见邻居和丈夫。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，结合第五段关键句“Over the years, I felt like I became an extended member of their family. Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, birthdays, I was at Ann and John’s.”（这些年来，我感觉自己成了他们家庭的一员。圣诞节、复活节、感恩节、生日，我在安和约翰家度过。）可知，文章主要介绍了作者是如何与邻居相识、相知和成为密友的，由此可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是描述她和邻居之间的亲密关系。故选D项。

【16~20题答案】
【答案】16. D 17. B 18. F 19. E 20. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了自律的人并不都是优秀的人，但是几乎所有杰出的人都是自律的人。文章论述了自律的重要性以及进行自我管理的方法。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Self-disciplined people are not all outstanding people.(自律的人并不都是优秀的人)”以及后文“Some of them read every day. Some of them never run late.(他们中的一些人每天阅读。有些人从不迟到)”可知，后文列举了一些自律的人的良好行为习惯，本句与上文构成转折，指出杰出的人都很自律，D选项中all outstanding people对应后文中them。故D选项“但是几乎所有杰出的人都是自律的人”符合语境，故选D。
【17题详解】
根据上文The real difference between an elite person and an ordinary person is that an elite person can manage his or her time well.(精英和普通人的真正区别在于，精英能很好地管理自己的时间)”可知，上文提到精英能很好地管理自己的时间，本句为本段最后一句，应承接上文说明这一做法的意义：是他们成功的来源。故B选项“那就是他们成功的来源”符合语境，故选B。
【18题详解】
根据上文“One example is staying fit. Never underestimate someone who is in good shape. Anyone who has ever tried to lose weight knows that it’s not easy.(一个例子就是保持健康。永远不要低估身材好的人。任何曾经尝试过减肥的人都知道这并不容易)”以及后文“If someone is in good shape, it shows that he knows the principles of staying fit and is able to stick to a plan that uses these principles.(如果某人身材很好，这表明他知道保持健康的原则，并且能够坚持使用这些原则的计划)”可知，本段主要是关于保持健康和好身材的人是如何做的，上文提到减肥并不容易，故本句也应是与体重相关的论述，F选项中weight与上文中weight相对应。故F选项“要避免体重反弹就更难了”符合语境，故选F。
【19题详解】
根据上文“If someone is in good shape, it means that this person is good at managing themselves and their time.(如果一个人状态很好，这意味着这个人善于管理自己和自己的时间)”以及后文“It also shows that this person is able to keep persevering and can balance long-term goals with short-term goals. So if someone is in good shape, he or she is more than just healthy.(这也表明这个人能够保持毅力，能够平衡长期目标和短期目标。所以，如果一个人是处于很好的状态，他或她不仅仅是健康)”可知，本段主要说明了一个人状态很好，说明这个人善于管理自己和自己的时间，故本句应承接上文对“这个人善于管理自己和自己的时间”这一技能进行评价。故E选项“无论是天生的还是后天习得的，这都是一项伟大的技能”符合语境，故选E。
【20题详解】
根据后文“First of all, set a goal and write down your reasons for wanting to achieve it. Create a list of all the things you need to do to achieve this goal and start to work on them one at a time. With self-discipline, small things in life will no longer trouble you. Only through self-discipline can you truly own your future.(首先，设定一个目标，并写下你想要实现它的原因。为实现这个目标，列出你需要做的所有事情，然后一次做一件。有了自律，生活中的小事情将不再困扰你。只有通过自律，你才能真正拥有自己的未来)”可知，本段的主旨是如何进行自我管理，故A选项“你如何学习自我管理？”符合语境，故选A。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。主要记叙了一位画家画画栩栩如生，有一天他将画送给宰相时，这位睿智的老人告诉他去漓江旅行——也许他可以从世界上最伟大的艺术家那里学到一些东西。画家最后发现这位世界上最伟大的艺术家就是大自然母亲。
【36题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：中国古代有一位画家，他的画几乎栩栩如生。此处为定语从句修饰先行词artist，且先行词在从句中作定语，故应用关系代词whose。故填whose。
【37题详解】
考查最高级。句意：一天，皇帝想让人给他画一幅肖像，于是他把所有伟大的画家都请来，展示他们最好的作品，以便他挑选最好的。结合句意，皇帝想要画家最好的作品，表示“最好的”此处应用形容词最高级finest。故填finest。
【38题详解】
考查动词语态。句意：画家确信他会被选中，但是当他把他的杰作送给皇帝的宰相时，这位老人笑了。本句中主语he与谓语动词choose构成被动关系，且would后跟动词原形。故填be chosen。
【39题详解】
.考查名词。句意：怀着好奇心，艺术家收拾行囊离开了。with为介词，后跟名词curiosity作宾语，表示“好奇心”。故填curiosity。
【40题详解】
考查连接词。句意：当他问河岸上的村民，他在哪里可以找到这位传奇艺术家时，他们笑着指着河的下游。本句为时间状语从句，表示“当……时候”，且从句中动词asked为短暂性动作动词，不能用while引导，故应用when或as引导。句首单词首字母要大写。故填When/As。
【41题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：当他问河岸上的村民，他在哪里可以找到这位传奇艺术家时，他们笑着指着河的下游。根据上文they smiled and可知此处应用一般过去时。故填pointed。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：第二天早上，他租了一条船，出发去找这位著名的画家。结合句意表示“出发去做某事”短语为set out to do sth.，后跟不定式做目的状语。故填to find。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意：当小船缓缓地沿着江面移动时，山在水中的倒影使他说不出话来。此处修饰动词moved应用副词gently作状语，表示“缓缓地”。故填gently。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：当他看到雾气从河上升起，山顶上乌云环绕，他不禁流下了眼泪。分析句子结构可知，the soft clouds 69 (surround) the mountain tops是独立主格结构做状语，surround在句中应用非谓语动词形式，与逻辑主语clouds构成主动关系，故应用现在分词。故填surrounding。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意：这位艺术家最终被世界上最伟大的艺术家——大自然母亲所折服。结合句意表示“在世界上”短语为on earth。故填on。

Mother’s gift
I grew up in a small town where the primary school was a ten-minute walk from my house．When the noon bell rang，I would race breathlessly home．My mother would be standing at the top of the stairs，smiling down at me．
One lunchtime when I was in the third grade will stay with me always．I had been picked to be the princess in the school play，and for weeks my mother had rehearsed my lines so hard with me．But no matter how easily I acted at home，as soon as I stepped onstage，every word disappeared from my head．Finally，my teacher took me aside．She explained that she had written a narrator's part to the play，and asked me to change roles．Her word，kindly expressed，still hurt，especially when I saw my part go to another girl．
I didn't tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day．But she sensed my pain．Instead of suggesting we practise my lines，she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard．
It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine was turning green．Under the huge trees，we could see yellow dandelions（蒲公英）in the grass in bunches，as if a painter had touched our landscape with a bit of gold．I watched my mother casually bend down by one dandelion．"I think I'm going to dig up all these weeds，" she said，pulling it up by its roots．"From now on，we'll have only roses in this garden．"
“But I like dandelions，” I protested．“All flowers are beautiful—even dandelions．”
My mother looked at me seriously．“Yes，every flower gives pleasure in its own way，doesn't it？" she asked thoughtfully．I nodded，pleased that I had won her over．“And that is true of people too，" she added．“Not everyone can be a princess，but there is no shame in that．" Relieved that she had guessed my pain，I started to cry as I told her what had happened．She listened and smiled reassuringly．
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右：
2．请按如下格式作答。
“But you will be a beautiful narrator，” she said，
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After the play，I took home the flower.

【47题答案】
【答案】【参考范文】
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, encouraging and comforting me as always as she did. My beloved mom, wearing a shining smile on her soft face, added. “The narrator’s part is important, too.” Thanks to her encouragement, which calmed me down gradually, I began to accept that the narrator part was of vital significance. Time went so fast that it reached to the performance day. At first I was still nervous, but it was at that very moment that I found a dandelion in my pocket. I knew my mom passed the flower to me, which meant to be in company with me.
After the play, I took home the flower. Mom carefully gazed at the dandelion, gently pressed it into the dictionary and grinned happily as she did. “We were perhaps the only people who would press such a sorry-looking weed.” Though decades have passed, I constantly recall our precious lunchtimes being together, grateful, because smiles on Mother’s face and her kind act foster a man like me now! And all those inspiring words like “Cease to struggle and you cease to live.” have been echoing in my mind as fresh as a daisy.
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者原本被选定为出演话剧中公主的角色，由于表现不佳，被老师调整角色，不得不担任话剧讲解员，在心情郁闷之时，母亲一如既往地用自己的智慧，以花园里玫瑰和蒲公英的存在为载体，宽慰作者的心，帮助作者重拾信心，以及让作者在后来的人生道路上也充满了信心。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“但你会成为一个美丽的讲解员”可知，第一段可描写母亲如何用花园里的玫瑰和蒲公英打比方，缓解我的情绪，并给我勇气，让我重拾信心去参加比赛。
②由第二段首句内容“演出结束后，我把花带回家。”可知，这里的花指的是前文提到的蒲公英，是作者去表演时母亲给他的花。本段还可以继续描写母亲对我人生态度的影响。
2.续写线索：我参加学校话剧表演——要求担任公主的角色——表现不佳——被老师调整为讲解员——心情压抑——母亲用玫瑰和蒲公英的故事开导我——重拾信心登上舞台——演出成功——母亲鼓励的话语依旧回荡。

I was in the seventh grade, and we had moved to New Jersey in November. By then, everyone already had had their own friends, and no one wanted to talk to a new girl. To make things worse, they put me in “Section L”. I found out later that everyone called Section L “Loserville”. It was sort of an open secret that it was the section for troublemakers and not-so-smart kids. When I found out, I wanted to scream. I had always been a good student and had amazing friends, and now everyone thought I was a loser!
I did text my friends in Illinois almost every night, especially my best friend, Ana. At first my friends wanted to hear all about it. But then some stopped texting back once I said something about how miserable I was. One night when I was texting with Ana, I complained about another friend who had just done that.
Ana’s texts came really fast for the next few minutes and they surprised me. She said that she was tired of hearing about how bad everything was in New Jersey, too. She said she did not want to hurt my feelings but that I needed to stop feeling so sorry for myself all the time, I had to try to make things better.
The next day, I thought a lot about what Ana had said. She was right!
I wish I could say that everything changed overnight after that, but it didn’t. I was still stuck in “Loserville”, and some people were still mean to me, even though I tried to just stay out of their way.
But what did change was me—I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and did something about making friends. I signed up to make sets for the school play. I met a lot of new people there, and suddenly I had friends to say hi to in the halls!
I still miss Illinois sometimes, but life in New Jersey isn’t so hard anymore. Even though I couldn’t change my situation, I could change my attitude—and that made all the difference.
4. “Loserville” is a section for ________.
A. failures B. good students
C. class secrets D. newcomers
5. The writer complained all the time in the new environment because ________.
A. Ana didn’t text back to her B. her friends hurt her feelings
C. she was unfairly treated D. she was a good student
6. What made a difference in changing the situation?
A. She went back to Illinois.
B. She ended friendship with Ana.
C. She fought back with her classmates.
D. She began to make friends with others.
7. The best title for the passage can be ________.

【4题详解】
推理判断题。答案定位在第一段It was sort of an open secret that it was the section for troublemakers and not-so-smart kids.（这是一个公开的秘密，这是一个闹事者和不太聪明的孩子的区域。）和I had always been a good student and had amazing friends, and now everyone thought I was a loser!（一直是个好学生，有很棒的朋友，现在每个人都认为我是个失败者!）由此推断出“Loserville”是一个失败者待着的地方，故选A。
【5题详解】

World’s loneliest marathon
Many of us know about Russia’s Lake Baikal from our textbooks, or by listening to Chinese singer Li Jian’s hit song, Lake Baikal. But over the past decade, the world’s deepest freshwater lake has been in the spotlight for an extreme sport.
Each March since 2005 about 150 people from around the world sign up for the Baikal Ice Marathon. They come to explore the lake’s breathtaking beauty and challenge themselves in unpredictable conditions.
The 26-mile (41.84-kilometers) journey starts on the lake’s eastern shore. In March, the ice is a meter thick and iron-hard. Runners cross this frozen surface, finishing on the western side of the lake.
Known as the “blue eye of Siberia”, Lake Baikal has exceptionally clear waters. This means its ice is almost perfectly transparent. “Seen from above, a runner on the ice looks as if he or she is jogging through space,” The New York Times noted.
The landscape might be beautiful, but it’s also harsh. Strong winds blast across the lake and frostbite can occur within half an hour. Runners say the cold climate is what draws them. They want to test their limits.
“When you are in such an environment, you don’t have cars around you, you don’t have the noise around. I think these extreme races allow you to be alone with nature,” Alicja Barahona, a 64-year-old runner from the US, told ABC News.
The location offers some strange and unique characteristics for this marathon. The finish line is visible from the start, but the endless white offers no progress markers. The race also ends with little fanfare (喧闹). Tourists crowding the ice are mostly addicted to snapping selfies (自拍) and just ignore the runners.
For some runners, the absence of spectators (观众) makes the race more challenging, because it’s lonely. They must fight with themselves. “You are alone on Baikal. It is your race. You are alone with yourself. All you need to do is to defeat yourself,” Veronique Messina, a French runner, told the Telegraph.
8. What can we know about the Baikal Ice Marathon from the article?
A. It takes runners from the northern end to the southern end of the lake.
B. It involves extreme weather and beautiful scenery.
C. It attracts more and more participants each year.
D. It is about 26 kilometers in length.
9. In Paragraph 5, the underlined word “harsh” probably means _______.
A. interesting B. mysterious
C. severe D. safe
10. How does the Baikal Ice Marathon differ from other marathons?
A. Only men are allowed to run in this race.
B. The runners can see the finish line from the start.
C. The runners are often distracted by tourists.
D. There are many progress markers on the ice.
11. What is the most challenging part of the race for Messina?
A. Loneliness. B. The long distance.
C. The cold climate. D. Noisy surroundings.
【8~11题答案】
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了世界上最孤独的马拉松是在贝加尔湖畔。自2005年以来，每年3月，来自世界各地的人报名参加贝加尔湖冰马拉松。他们来这里探索湖泊的美丽，并在不可预知的条件下挑战自己，测试自己的极限。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Each March since 2005, about 150 people from around the world sign up for the Baikal Ice Marathon. They come to explore the lake’s breathtaking beauty and challenge themselves in unpredictable conditions. ” 自2005年以来，每年三月都会有来自世界各地的150人报名参加贝加尔湖冰上马拉松。他们来这里是为了探索湖的美，在不可预知的条件下挑战自己。由此可知冰马拉松涉及极端的天气和美丽的风景，故选B。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“Strong winds blast across the lake and frostbite can occur within half an hour.” 强风吹过湖面，半小时内就会冻伤，由此可推断上文的转折应该是天气也是残酷的，由此可知，harsh同severe同义，意为“残酷的，恶劣的”，故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第七段“The location offers some strange and unique characteristics for this marathon. The finish line is visible from the start, but the endless white offers no progress markers.” 这个地点为这次马拉松比赛提供了一些奇怪而独特的特点。从一开始就可以看到终点线，但无尽的白色没有任何进展标记。由此可知从一开始就看到终点线成为冰马拉松的独特特点，故选B。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“For some runners, the absence of spectators (观众) makes the race more challenging, because it’s lonely.” 对于一些赛跑者来说，缺少观众使得比赛更具挑战性，因为比赛很孤单。因此孤单是比赛最具挑战的那部分。故选A。
【点睛】词义猜测题，要根据词、词组、句子所在的语境上下文来判断其意义。因此熟练掌握一些猜词技巧是做好这类题的关键。
1.根据定义或上下文解释进行猜测。有时短文中出现一个需要猜测其意义的词或短语，下面接着出现其定义或解释，这就是判断该词或短语意义的主要依据。
2.根据同位关系进行猜测。阅读中出现的难词有时后面紧跟一个同位语，对前面的词进行解释，这时可利用同位关系对前面或后面的词义或句意进行猜测。
3.根据构词法(前缀、后缀、复合、派生等)进行猜测。在英语中，有很多词可以在前面加前缀，在后面加后缀，从而构成一个词，乍看起来，这个词可能是新词，但掌握了一定构词知识，就不难猜出它的词义。
4.根据因果关系进行猜测。在一篇阅读文章中，根据原因可以预测结果，根据结果也可以找出原因。
5. 根据上下文的指代关系进行猜测。文章中的代词it, that, he, him 或them可以指上文提到的人或物，其中it和that还可以指一件事。有时代词指代的对象相隔较远，要认真查找;也有时需要对前面提到的内容进行总结，才能得出代词所指代的事。
6.根据同义关系进行猜测。当词或短语之间有并列连词and 或or时，其连接的两项内容在含义上是接近的或递进的，由此确定同等关系中的某个生词所属的义域，由此可推知其大致意思。
7.根据转折或对比关系进行猜测.根据上下句的连接词，如but, however, otherwise等就可以看到前后句在意义上的差别，从而依据某一句的含义，来确定另一句的含义。另外，分号也可以表示转折、对比或不相干的意义。
例如小题2就是通过上下文解释来进行猜测的，故选C。
D
When I moved into my apartment in Toronto, the path forward of my immigrant life wasn’t clear. I was busy figuring out a new language and culture. I didn’t know anyone well in Toronto and wasn’t sure if I wanted to stay. As time passed, I grew roots into the ground while taking pictures of the garden next door.
My studies required me to take exams which I prepared for in the evenings, after work. My mother visited to take care of me. Once she arrived in Toronto, I showed her a few places she could wander to in the neighborhood. One day, on arriving home in the evening, I found her waiting for me.
“You will not believe it,” she said “Your neighbor talked to me today. She called me over to show me her garden, but I did not want to go empty-handed, so I snatched (一把抓起) the garden pictures from the shelves and gave them to her. She wanted to know about us.” I rang them and got an invitation that same evening.
My neighbors were incredibly welcoming. They “adopted” me that evening. Immigrants themselves, Ann and John were curious about me. They told us about their lives and their grandchildren.
Over the years, I felt like I became an extended member of their family. Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, birthdays, I was at Ann and John’s. They helped me embrace my new Canadian identity.
After graduation, I got a chance that meant I needed to move west. I didn’t get back to Toronto much, but when John’s 90th birthday came along, I couldn’t miss it.
Countless family and friends came to their house and its magic garden to celebrate John’s spirit. I stepped away to let myself navigate (穿行) those familiar garden paths, and there, I met Michael. Michael ended up joining me out west, and when we decided to get married, we immediately called Ann and John.
“You are having your wedding here!” they said. We could not refuse that offer. My parents couldn’t make it to our wedding. Age, disease and distance shattered (使破灭) my hopes of having them witness our happiness. But Ann and John, our other families and friends did not let any shadow fall over that day.
Many seasons have now passed. Ann still watches over her garden and perhaps secretly listens for John’s voice, now a memory. Life continues, but I know the garden will grow greener in spring. I cannot wait to wander its pathways again, wandering in Ann’s steps.
12. What do the first three paragraphs mainly talk about?
A. What the author’s new life in Toronto was like.
B. How the author met her neighbors.
C. How the author got along with her neighbors.
D. How the author’s mother interacted with their neighbors.
13. What does the underlined word “adopted” imply in paragraph 4?
A. Ann and John offered the author a place to live.
B. Ann and John made the author feel at home.
C. Ann and John helped the author get a new identity.
D. Ann and John became the author’s legal parents.
14. Why does the author say her neighbors’ garden was a magic garden?
A. It gave her a lot of hope and happiness.
B. It always attracted her to return to visit her neighbors.
C. It was where people gathered to celebrate John’s spirit.

15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this article?

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者是如何与邻居相识、相知和成为密友的，并表达了对邻居的思念。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。通读前三段内容，结合第一段关键句“As time passed, I grew roots into the ground while taking pictures of the garden next door.”（随着时间的推移，我一边给隔壁的花园拍照，一边融入新的环境。）和第三段关键句““You will not believe it,” she said “Your neighbor talked to me today. She called me over to show me her garden, but I did not want to go empty-handed, so I snatched (一把抓起) the garden pictures from the shelves and gave them to her. She wanted to know about us.””（“你不会相信的，”她说，“你的邻居今天跟我说话了。她叫我过来给我看她的花园，但我不想空手而去，所以我从架子上抓起花园的照片给了她。她想认识我们。”）可知，前三段讲述了作者是如何与邻居认识的，初来乍到，作者对这里并不熟悉，只是喜欢拍拍邻居家的花园，母亲来此照顾她后，因为花园的照片为她提供了认识邻居的契机，由此可知，前三段主要讲的是作者是如何认识她的邻居的。故选B项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线单词上句“My neighbors were incredibly welcoming.”（我的邻居非常热情。）和第五段关键句“Over the years, I felt like I became an extended member of their family. Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, birthdays, I was at Ann and John’s.”（这些年来，我感觉自己成了他们家庭的一员。圣诞节、复活节、感恩节、生日，我在安和约翰家度过。）可知，邻居很热情，作者经常去邻居家，各种节日和生日宴会都会参与，这让她有种成为了邻居家一份子的感觉，由此可知，画线单词“adopted”指的是安和约翰使作者感受到了家的温暖。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段关键句““You will not believe it,” she said “Your neighbor talked to me today. She called me over to show me her garden, but I did not want to go empty-handed, so I snatched (一把抓起) the garden pictures from the shelves and gave them to her. She wanted to know about us.””（“你不会相信的，”她说，“你的邻居今天跟我说话了。她叫我过来给我看她的花园，但我不想空手而去，所以我从架子上抓起花园的照片给了她。她想认识我们。”）和倒数第三段关键句“I stepped away to let myself navigate (穿行) those familiar garden paths, and there, I met Michael. Michael ended up joining me out west, and when we decided to get married, we immediately called Ann and John.”（我走开了，让自己在那些熟悉的花园小径上穿行，在那里，我遇见了迈克尔。迈克尔最终和我一起去了西部，当我们决定结婚时，我们立即给安和约翰打了电话。）可知，作者将邻居家的花园叫做“magic garden”，这是因为它让作者与邻居相识，结下了不解的缘分，并且自己与丈夫的相遇也是在邻居家的花园，由此可知，作者说她邻居的花园是一个神奇的花园是因为它使她能够遇见邻居和丈夫。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，结合第五段关键句“Over the years, I felt like I became an extended member of their family. Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, birthdays, I was at Ann and John’s.”（这些年来，我感觉自己成了他们家庭的一员。圣诞节、复活节、感恩节、生日，我在安和约翰家度过。）可知，文章主要介绍了作者是如何与邻居相识、相知和成为密友的，由此可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是描述她和邻居之间的亲密关系。故选D项。

【19题详解】
根据上文“If someone is in good shape, it means that this person is good at managing themselves and their time.(如果一个人状态很好，这意味着这个人善于管理自己和自己的时间)”以及后文“It also shows that this person is able to keep persevering and can balance long-term goals with short-term goals.

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。主要记叙了一位画家画画栩栩如生，有一天他将画送给宰相时，这位睿智的老人告诉他去漓江旅行——也许他可以从世界上最伟大的艺术家那里学到一些东西。画家最后发现这位世界上最伟大的艺术家就是大自然母亲。
【36题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：中国古代有一位画家，他的画几乎栩栩如生。此处为定语从句修饰先行词artist，且先行词在从句中作定语，故应用关系代词whose。故填whose。
【37题详解】
考查最高级。句意：一天，皇帝想让人给他画一幅肖像，于是他把所有伟大的画家都请来，展示他们最好的作品，以便他挑选最好的。结合句意，皇帝想要画家最好的作品，表示“最好的”此处应用形容词最高级finest。故填finest。
【38题详解】
考查动词语态。句意：画家确信他会被选中，但是当他把他的杰作送给皇帝的宰相时，这位老人笑了。本句中主语he与谓语动词choose构成被动关系，且would后跟动词原形。故填be chosen。
【39题详解】
.考查名词。句意：怀着好奇心，艺术家收拾行囊离开了。with为介词，后跟名词curiosity作宾语，表示“好奇心”。故填curiosity。
【40题详解】
考查连接词。句意：当他问河岸上的村民，他在哪里可以找到这位传奇艺术家时，他们笑着指着河的下游。本句为时间状语从句，表示“当……时候”，且从句中动词asked为短暂性动作动词，不能用while引导，故应用when或as引导。句首单词首字母要大写。故填When/As。
【41题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：当他问河岸上的村民，他在哪里可以找到这位传奇艺术家时，他们笑着指着河的下游。根据上文they smiled and可知此处应用一般过去时。故填pointed。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：第二天早上，他租了一条船，出发去找这位著名的画家。结合句意表示“出发去做某事”短语为set out to do sth.，后跟不定式做目的状语。故填to find。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意：当小船缓缓地沿着江面移动时，山在水中的倒影使他说不出话来。此处修饰动词moved应用副词gently作状语，表示“缓缓地”。故填gently。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：当他看到雾气从河上升起，山顶上乌云环绕，他不禁流下了眼泪。分析句子结构可知，the soft clouds 69 (surround) the mountain tops是独立主格结构做状语，surround在句中应用非谓语动词形式，与逻辑主语clouds构成主动关系，故应用现在分词。故填surrounding。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意：这位艺术家最终被世界上最伟大的艺术家——大自然母亲所折服。结合句意表示“在世界上”短语为on earth。故填on。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Mother’s gift
I grew up in a small town where the primary school was a ten-minute walk from my house．When the noon bell rang，I would race breathlessly home．My mother would be standing at the top of the stairs，smiling down at me．
One lunchtime when I was in the third grade will stay with me always．I had been picked to be the princess in the school play，and for weeks my mother had rehearsed my lines so hard with me．But no matter how easily I acted at home，as soon as I stepped onstage，every word disappeared from my head．Finally，my teacher took me aside．She explained that she had written a narrator's part to the play，and asked me to change roles．Her word，kindly expressed，still hurt，especially when I saw my part go to another girl．
I didn't tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day．But she sensed my pain．Instead of suggesting we practise my lines，she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard．
It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine was turning green．Under the huge trees，we could see yellow dandelions（蒲公英）in the grass in bunches，as if a painter had touched our landscape with a bit of gold．I watched my mother casually bend down by one dandelion．"I think I'm going to dig up all these weeds，" she said，pulling it up by its roots．"From now on，we'll have only roses in this garden．"
“But I like dandelions，” I protested．“All flowers are beautiful—even dandelions．”
My mother looked at me seriously．“Yes，every flower gives pleasure in its own way，doesn't it？" she asked thoughtfully．I nodded，pleased that I had won her over．“And that is true of people too，" she added．“Not everyone can be a princess，but there is no shame in that．" Relieved that she had guessed my pain，I started to cry as I told her what had happened．She listened and smiled reassuringly．
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右：
2．请按如下格式作答。
“But you will be a beautiful narrator，” she said，
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After the play，I took home the flower.

【47题答案】
【答案】【参考范文】
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, encouraging and comforting me as always as she did. My beloved mom, wearing a shining smile on her soft face, added. “The narrator’s part is important, too.” Thanks to her encouragement, which calmed me down gradually, I began to accept that the narrator part was of vital significance. Time went so fast that it reached to the performance day. At first I was still nervous, but it was at that very moment that I found a dandelion in my pocket. I knew my mom passed the flower to me, which meant to be in company with me.
After the play, I took home the flower. Mom carefully gazed at the dandelion, gently pressed it into the dictionary and grinned happily as she did. “We were perhaps the only people who would press such a sorry-looking weed.” Though decades have passed, I constantly recall our precious lunchtimes being together, grateful, because smiles on Mother’s face and her kind act foster a man like me now! And all those inspiring words like “Cease to struggle and you cease to live.” have been echoing in my mind as fresh as a daisy.
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者原本被选定为出演话剧中公主的角色，由于表现不佳，被老师调整角色，不得不担任话剧讲解员，在心情郁闷之时，母亲一如既往地用自己的智慧，以花园里玫瑰和蒲公英的存在为载体，宽慰作者的心，帮助作者重拾信心，以及让作者在后来的人生道路上也充满了信心。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“但你会成为一个美丽的讲解员”可知，第一段可描写母亲如何用花园里的玫瑰和蒲公英打比方，缓解我的情绪，并给我勇气，让我重拾信心去参加比赛。
②由第二段首句内容“演出结束后，我把花带回家。”可知，这里的花指的是前文提到的蒲公英，是作者去表演时母亲给他的花。本段还可以继续描写母亲对我人生态度的影响。
2.续写线索：我参加学校话剧表演——要求担任公主的角色——表现不佳——被老师调整为讲解员——心情压抑——母亲用玫瑰和蒲公英的故事开导我——重拾信心登上舞台——演出成功——母亲鼓励的话语依旧回荡。
