【解析】
【原文】Old people have worked hard all their life and should be shown appreciation and kindness. This idea of appreciating the elderly stayed in my head and I decided it was time to step up an organization to help them. So, in 2013, two years after I entered Orange High School, I founded an organization called Love for the Elderly.
My interest in writing led me to create the organization, where people from all across the globe send letters filled with kindness and joy. I then send these letters to senior centers, nursing homes, and retirement communities located all across the country. Up to now, I have collected over 1,000 letters, and the response I have received from these places has been truly unforgettable.
This past month, I had the opportunity to receive $100 as the prize I won in a contest. This money has been of great help for my organization. We don’t get much money from the government or other organizations, so this money helped to pay for many costs. Next, I plan to set up a food bank for old people in my city.

As the saying goes, “Without music, life would be a mistake.” Music is very important in our lives and here are four of the greatest musicians in history.
Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 — 1827)
Born in Bonn, Germany, Beethoven never held an official position in Vienna. He supported himself by giving concerts, teaching piano, and the sale of his compositions. The last 30 years of Beethoven’s life were filled with a lot of hard times, the first of which was his deafness. Beethoven’s music greatly influenced the next generation of musicians.
Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 — 1750)
Bach, “the father of modem music”, was born in Eisenach, Germany. His parents died when he was nine years old, and in 1695 he went to live with his brother Johann Christoph, who was an organist (风琴手) in Ohrdruf. He stayed there until 1700. Seven years later, he moved back to Weimar, where he served as court (宫廷) organist for nine years. His music greatly influenced classical music.
Frederic Chopin (1810 — 1849)
Chopin was born in Zelazowa Wola, Poland. He showed a talent for the piano at a very young age. Chopin began composing when he was still a child, but some of his early works have been lost. He gave his first public concert in 1818. Chopin was considered as the leading musician of his time.
Franz Schubert (1797 — 1828)
Schubert was born and died in Vienna. Unlike most of his predecessors (前辈) Schubert was not a great performer. He never had much money but he was very productive. He wrote his first masterpiece when he was only sixteen. However, he died young, before his talents had even been known.
21. Where was Beethoven born?
A. In Vienna. B. In America. C. In Germany. D. In Poland.
22. Who is called “the father of modem music”?
A. Bach. B. Beethoven. C. Schubert. D. Chopin.
23. When did Chopin give his first public concert?
A. In 1707. B. In 1818. C. In 1810. D. In 1828.

Each morning, opening the door to the factory, I was struck by the strong smell of oil and the noises of machines. My college internship at this large plant involved walking through the factory to get to the engineering offices. I tried to get to my office without slipping or getting my high heels stuck in the old wood flooring.
The head of this crowd would shout and blow the whistle so loudly that everyone would hear and laugh. When this type of thing happened, it was just considered “boys will be boys”, so managers did nothing though they were aware of all this. This whole situation was humiliating, and I began to hate going to the offices.
After a while, I realized that the man with the whistle delighted in embarrassing the ladies. Out of necessity, my idea was born. One morning, as I walked through the factory door and made my way around the machines, he began to blow his whistle. I stopped and turned to face him, looking him directly in the eyes. Surprised, he stopped the whistle.
Breathing deeply, I said aloud, “I just wanted to tell you that I wish you wouldn’t do that. It’s very embarrassing. How would you like it if someone did that to you or one of your family members?”
I think I shocked him, and he looked down. “I’m sorry. I won’t do it again. We were just having fun. My name is Tom,” he said.
I met his gaze but smiled this time. “Let’s be friends from now on.”
Sure enough, the next morning, Tom smiled and waved. I smiled and waved back. We continued to have this happy exchange for the rest of my internship.
24. What struck the author when she went to work?
A. The noises of the machines. B. The shouting of the crowd.
C. The chance of being stuck. D. The worry of the internship.
25. What did the managers think about the situation?
A. They tried but couldn’t stop the men. B. They thought it unnecessary to stop it.
C. They felt it helpful for the author’s growth. D. They knew nothing about the situation.
26. Why did the author begin to hate going to the offices?
A. The work wasn’t productive. B. She hated the noisy machines.

On November 18, the world’s first self-driving, electric container (电动集装箱) ship made its first trip to Oslo, Norway.
The ship, called Yara Birkeland, is owned by Yara, a company that makes fertilizer (化肥). The company wanted to develop a ship that wouldn’t pollute the earth and was completely self-driving. The company says that in the future everything, including loading (装载) and unloading the ship, will be done by machines.
The Yara Birkeland can carry 120 large containers like those pulled by trucks. But the ship is fully powered by electricity. The electricity is made by water energy, so there’s no pollution at all.
The Yara Birkeland won’t usually be going to Oslo and will only travel from Yarn’s factory to the port in Brevik.
In the future, as an autonomous ship, the Yara Birkeland is expected to operate without any humans. Yara plans to spend the next two years training and testing the ship.
The Yarn Birkeland will have many challenges. It will be moving in a narrow place. It will have to learn to deal with the changes of the water. The ship will need to pass under two bridges and avoid all the other traffic on the busy water. Finally, it will have to stop at one of the busiest ports in Norway.
The company hopes to solve most of these problems in the next two years. Yarn’s leader, Svein Tore Holsether, thinks that in three to five years, the ship might not even need to have controls that a human could use.
28. What is the advantage of the Yara Birkeland?
A. It runs faster than common ships. B. Fertilizer can be made on it.
C. It can carry the biggest load of products. D. It is environmentally friendly.
29. What does the underlined word “autonomous” in paragraph 5 most probably mean?
A. Self-driving. B. Fast-running. C. Large. D. Powerful.
30. What challenge will the Yara Birkeland meet?
A. It will lose its way. B. It will travel through heavy traffic.
C. It will meet with polluted water. D. It will use up electricity halfway.
31. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. Yara Is Making a Change B. Container Ships Are Popular
C. An Electric Container Ship Sets off D. Electricity Is Widely Used in Ships
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了世界上第一艘首次航行到奥斯陆的自动驾驶的电动集装箱货船的相关情况。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The electricity is made by water energy, so there’s no pollution at all.(电力是由水能产生的，所以完全没有污染。)”可知，这艘船的优点是不会造成环境污染。故选D。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中出现的“The company wanted to develop a ship that wouldn’t pollute the earth and was completely self-driving. (该公司想开发一种不会污染地球并且完全自动驾驶的船。)”以及该词后面内容“Yara Birkeland is expected to operate without any humans.(Yara Birkeland预计将在无人的情况下进行操作)”可知，这艘船是自动驾驶的，画线词意为“自动驾驶”。故选A。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The Yarn Birkeland will have many challenges.(Yarn Birkeland将面临诸多挑战。)”以及“The ship will need to pass under two bridges and avoid all the other traffic on the busy water.(这艘船将需要从两座桥下通过，并避开繁忙水域上的所有其他交通工具。)”可知，这艘船将面临的挑战之一是要在繁忙的水域中行驶。故选B。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。本文开头介绍了世界上第一艘电动集装箱货船下水进行首次航行，然后在下文对这艘船的情况以及即将面临的挑战进行了介绍。C选项“An Electric Container Ship Sets off (一艘电动集装箱船起航)”，符合文章主旨。故选C。

A tornado is a disaster; the death and damage it may leave behind is heartbreaking. And while the arrival of a hurricane is known in advance by days of warning, tornadoes strike suddenly. Those in the path of a tornado may have 15 minutes’ warning, if that. That makes safety measures for tornadoes important for survival.
What can you do to protect your family from something like that?
Before a storm
• If you live in an area where tornadoes often strike, consider building a safe room in your home or make a bedroom or bathroom strong enough.
• Pack an emergency preparedness kit (应急箱) that will meet the needs of you and your family for three days. You should put food and water for three days, batteries, first-aid kit, local maps and toilet paper in an emergency preparedness kit. Other things to consider include sleeping bags or blankets, books, puzzles and games for children.
• Pay special attention to weather. Look for the following danger signs: dark, greenish sky, a large, dark cloud, loud noise.
Safety measures during a storm
• In a public building, go to a shelter area such as a safe room, basement or the lowest building level.
• If you’re in a mobile home, get out quickly and go to the lowest floor of a nearby building or a storm shelter.
• If caught in the open, lie down in a lower area and cover your head with your hands.
Safety measures after a storm
• Pay attention to the danger created by tornado damage such as broken glass and broken electrical wire (电线). These are all dangerous.
• Check for injuries, but don’t try to move someone who is seriously injured unless they are in immediate danger of death or further injury.
32. Why does the author speak of a hurricane?
A. To make the topic more attractive.
B. To introduce more natural disasters.
C. To stress a hurricane also causes damage.
D. To show it is important to prepare for a tornado.
33. What should be put in your emergency preparedness kit?
A. A pencil. B. A world map.
C. A battery. D. A phone card.
34. What should people do when a tornado strikes?
A. Stay still when in the office. B. Leave a mobile house at once.
C. Cover your ears if in the open air. D. Prepare an emergency preparedness kit.
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. Safety measures for tornadoes. B. Some danger signs of tornadoes.
C. The damage caused by tornadoes. D. The importance of a shelter in tornadoes.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人们在龙卷风到来之前、龙卷风发生时以及龙卷风过后要注意的安全问题和急救措施。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“And while the arrival of a hurricane is known in advance by days of warning, tornadoes strike suddenly. Those in the path of a tornado may have 15 minutes’ warning, if that. That makes safety measures for tornadoes important for survival.(虽然飓风的到来可以提前几天得到预警，但龙卷风却会突然袭击。那些在龙卷风路径上的人可能会提前15分钟得到警告。这使得应对龙卷风的安全措施对生存至关重要。)”可知，飓风在到来前会提前几天就有预警，而龙卷风是突然发生的，这使人们对龙卷风提前做好应急准备非常重要，由此推断提到飓风的目的是为了说明龙卷风更难提前为之做好准备。故选D项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据 Before a storm 部分第二条中“You should put food and water for three days, batteries, first-aid kit, local maps and toilet paper in an emergency preparedness kit.(你应该把三天的食物和水、电池、急救箱、当地地图和手纸放在应急准备包里。)”可知，应急箱里面要放入水、食物以及备用电池等。故选C项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据 Safety measures during a storm 部分的第二条“If you’re in a mobile home, get out quickly(如果你在移动房屋里，赶紧出去)”可知，龙卷风发生的时候要立即离开活动的房屋。故选B项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。分析全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了人们在龙卷风到来之前、龙卷风发生时以及龙卷风过后要注意的安全问题和急救措施，所以A选项“龙卷风的安全措施”能概括全文内容。故选A项。

67. 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。
Last weekend, I went to Mark’s new house near a forest for a little get-together. After lunch when I was chatting with him and his wife Cody, he asked me, “Hey, Thora, have you ever been to a secret spot?” Before I could even finish saying no, Cody and Mark were already at the door with their jackets on. And the next moment we were heading out into the forest with a camera, a fishing net and a plastic bucket(桶).
We walked through the forest along a path by a small river. Breathing the fresh air, we three talked and laughed all the way.
“Hey! What are you guys doing ?” someone suddenly shouted from behind. Mark and Cody’s eyes immediately widened, and without a word they started running. I had no choice but to follow them, getting my shoes wet and dirty with mud. We probably ran for about 10 minutes before Mark and Cody slowed down. I stopped to catch my breath and asked, “Who was that?”
Mark replied, “The most annoying neighbor ever. There’s no telling what could happen if he caught up with us. He is always making fun of us. I dislike him.” We kept walking on for a few more minutes. Then a beautiful lake appeared before our eyes. “Wow! Amazing！” I shouted and could hardly hold back my excitement. The lake was large and the water was deep and blue, looking so peaceful with tall trees around it.
注意：
（1）所续写短文的词数应为l50左右；
（2）续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；
Paragraph1:
Looking around, we saw a boat floating by the shore.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
“Help! Help! Help!” I was so frightened and cried for help.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph1:
Looking around, we saw a boat floating by the shore. “How about going boating?”Mark asked. “Good idea.”I agreed. I was excited to find so many fishes in the lake. Before I could say a word, Mark had cast the fishing net into the water. “Look this way. Let me take a photo of you two.” Cody said, taking out the camera. Hearing that, I quickly approached Mark. But all of a sudden I lost my balance and fell into the water.
Paragraph 2:
“Help! Help! Help!” I was so frightened and cried for help. However, none of us could swim. Mark and Cody tried to pull me up from the water but failed. Struggling in the water, I was almost exhausted. Suddenly, I felt myself lifted by someone. It was Mark’s neighbor, who followed us there. Without hesitation, he jumped into the water and saved me.
【解析】
【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读所给文章可知，我去了马克森林附近的新家，并且我和他以及他的妻子去了秘密地点，在途中他们的邻居喊我们，我们为了躲避他便一路奔跑。最后我们走到了一个美丽的湖边，湖面很大，湖水又深又蓝，四周有高大的树木。
【详解】续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：环顾四周，我们看见一艘船在岸边漂浮，所以应该写看到船之后发生的事情，要描述我们打算去打渔，并且我在给他们夫妻拍照的时候掉到了水里。第二段开头是：“救命啊！救命啊！救命啊！“我吓坏了，哭着求救。本段应该写我掉进水里之后的事情，马克夫妻想把我救起来但没成功，最后是我们一直躲避的马克的邻居毫不犹豫跳进水里救了我。
续写时要求注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。按要求完成写作任务。
【点睛】本文描写详略得当，使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如：take a photo of，be excited to do，without hesitation,all of a sudden 等高级词汇；before引导的时间状语从句，Before I could say a word, Mark had cast the fishing net into the water.复合结构等高级句式。
