A
This is not a problem in Munich even if it is already the afternoon. The last light of the day can always be enjoyed. Here are four hiking tours for late risers and after-work athletes. Let’s get out into nature quickly.
The Sundown Tour
With a bit of luck, after 5 p. m. you will have the whole view to yourself. Lake Walchensee lies below, opposite is the Herzogstand mountain, with the red sun setting below it. If you are walking down the mountain in the dark, however, you should always have headlamps with you, otherwise it will become too dangerous.
The Quick Tour
Sometimes the god stuff is so much closer than you think, on the Neureuth mountain, for example. The tour from the railway station in Tegermsee up to the mountain is comparably short and therefore suitable for all walkers who just want to stretch their legs after work has finished.
The Railway Tour
The greatest advantage of the Laber for late-in-the-day leisure walkers lies, however, in the mountain railway: its last trip down the mountain doesn’t leave until between 4:30 p.m. and 5 p.m. So you do not need to worry whether you still have enough time for the relaxing return journey.
The Cycling Tour
Who says that people who like to take exercise later on in the day always have to walk? Even many Munich residents forget that, in addition to the river Isar, there is a river in the city which is just as beautiful. If you want to explore the river and the associated Wurmtal valley, rent a bike and follow the shore from Pasing over Grafelfing and Gauting as far as Starnberg.
21. Which tour best suits a tourist who prefers doing light exercise?
A. The Sundown Tour. B. The Quick Tour.
C. The Railway Tour. D. The Cycling Tour.
22. What is needed to take the Cycling Tour?
A. A headlamp. B. A guide. C. A mountain bike. D. A railway ticket.
23 What do the four tours have in common?
A. Providing safety experience. B. Demanding a low budget.
C. Covering rivers and valleys. D. Suiting after-work tourists.
B
At a restaurant, a cockroach(蟑螂) suddenly flew from somewhere and sat on a lady. She started screaming out of fear. With a panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to throw away the cockroach. Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group also got panicky.
The lady finally managed to push the cockroach away but ...it landed on another lady in the group. Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama. The waiter rushed forward to their rescue. In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter. The waiter stood firm, composed himself and observed the behavior of the cockroach on his shirt. When he was confident enough, he grabbed it with his fingers and threw it out of the restaurant.
Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, I picked up a few thoughts and started wondering, was the cockroach responsible for their dramatic behavior? If so, then why was the waiter not disturbed? He handled it near to perfection, without any chaos. It is not the cockroach, but the inability of those people to handle the disturbance caused by the cockroach, that disturbed the ladies.
I realized that, it is not the shouting of my father or my boss or my wife that disturbs me, but it's my inability to handle the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbs me. It's not the traffic jams on the road that disturbs me, but my inability to handle the disturbance caused by the traffic jam that disturbs me. More than the problem, it's my reaction to the problem that creates chaos in my life.
24 What does word “the drama” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Escape from the restaurant . B. Sip her coffee.
C. Get rid of the cockroach. D. Rush to the waiter.
25. Which of the following best describes the waiter?
A. Calm. B. Brave. C. Confident. D. Stubborn.
26. What disturbed the lady according to the author?
A. Being laughed at by her group. B. Her fear of the cockroach.
C. Her incapability to deal with the cockroach. D. Her jumping and screaming.
27. What does the author try to convey in the text?
A. It is never too late to learn.
B. Think twice before you act.
C. Always be ready to help others.
D. Your reaction to the problem determines how you feel.
C
A computer program has been used to predict how people are feeling when they type.
In a study participants were asked to type a particular phrase and the program then estimated if they were happy, sad and so on. Surprisingly it was correct 70 per cent of the time, and the findings could lead to smarter artificial intelligence in the future.
The study published in the journal Behavior and Information Technology was carried out by researchers at the Islamic University of Technology in Bangladesh, reports Live Science.
In the research 25 people ranging from 15 to 40 years old were asked to retype two paragraphs from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland written by Lewis Carroll. They also had to enter their emotional state every 30 minutes while doing their regular activities on the computer. This allowed the program an opportunity to understand how their emotions changed their typing style.
Moods tested were joy, fear, anger, sadness, hate, and shame. The result was that the program could identify(识别) a person' s mood correctly 70 per cent of the time. It was most successful in identifying joyfulness with an 87 per cent success ratio, while sadness was the least successful at 60 per cent. The researchers found that the participants were less likely to input (输入) data when they were in a bad mood, which may explain the inexactness of the second result.
However, the findings could have great importance for artificial intelligence, and it may allow computers to get along with us in a friendlier manner, “If we could build any system that is intelligent enough to communicate with humans that is, it can identify user emotions and change its behavior accordingly then using machines could be more effective and friendly.” the researchers wrote.
28. Who conducted the study?
A. Lewis Carroll. B. Islamic University of Technology.
C. Live Science. D. Behavior and Information Technology.
29. What were people asked to do during the research?
A. Input words and emotional state. B. Change their typing styles.
C. Change their feelings frequently. D. Show their natural feelings.
30. Why is the result about sadness not so correct?
A. People usually hide their unhappy feelings.
B. The program cannot recognize sadness clearly.
C. The program cannot calculate the data correctly.
D. It's more difficult to collect data when people are sad.
31. What's the importance of the research result?
A. It helps people develop smarter machines.
B. It helps people speed up their typing speed.
C. It will inspire similar studies on people's mood.
D. It clearly explains the relationship between mood and typing.
D
We can video chat with astronauts aboard the International Space Station and watch live footage from the frozen heights of Everest. But communicating with a submarine (潜艇) or a diver is not so easy. The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists. The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water. Sonar (声呐) signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of the water rather than reaching the air.
Now, researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. “What we’ve shown is that it’s actually feasible to communicate from underwater to the air,” says Fadel Adib, a professor at MJT’s Media Lab, who led the research. The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface, making vibrations (震动) corresponding to the 1s and 0s of the data. A surface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations. The researchers call the system TARF. It has any number of potential real-world uses, Adib says. It could be used to find downed planes underwater by reading signals from sonar devices in a plane’s black box and it could allow submarines to communicate with the surface.
Right now the technology is low-resolution (低分辨率). The initial study was conducted in the MIT swimming pool at maximum depths of around 11 or 12 feet. The next steps for the researchers are to see if TARF is workable at much greater depths and under varying conditions—high waves, storms, schools of fish. They also want to see if they can make the technology work in the other direction— air to water.
If the technology proves successful in real-world conditions, expect “texting while diving” to be the latest underwater fashion.
32. What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 1?
A. The future of video chat underwater and in air.
B. The difficulty of communication from water to air.
C. The frustrations of developing underwater devices.
D. The current situation of communicating with a submarine.
33. What does the underlined word “feasible” mean?
A. Convenient. B. Changeable.
C. Achievable. D. Alternative.
34. What do we know about TARF?
A. It is widely used to find downed planes.
B. It can work well at great depths underwater.
C. It is an underwater machine that sends signals.
D. It can send, receive and read signals from underwater.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Real-world Uses of Sonar Technology.
B. Full Air-to-water Communication Closer to Reality.
C. TARF Becoming a New Means of Communication.
D. A Breakthrough in the Application of Submarines.

Keep your sentences simple and use plain language. ____39____The more complex your phrasing and vocabulary the more likely your deaf companion is to miss something. Try to avoid using slang or expressions that aren’t widely known.

第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)
第一节 (共15小题;每小题2分，满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
This is not a problem in Munich even if it is already the afternoon. The last light of the day can always be enjoyed. Here are four hiking tours for late risers and after-work athletes. Let’s get out into nature quickly.
The Sundown Tour
With a bit of luck, after 5 p. m. you will have the whole view to yourself. Lake Walchensee lies below, opposite is the Herzogstand mountain, with the red sun setting below it. If you are walking down the mountain in the dark, however, you should always have headlamps with you, otherwise it will become too dangerous.
The Quick Tour
Sometimes the god stuff is so much closer than you think, on the Neureuth mountain, for example. The tour from the railway station in Tegermsee up to the mountain is comparably short and therefore suitable for all walkers who just want to stretch their legs after work has finished.
The Railway Tour
The greatest advantage of the Laber for late-in-the-day leisure walkers lies, however, in the mountain railway: its last trip down the mountain doesn’t leave until between 4:30 p.m. and 5 p.m. So you do not need to worry whether you still have enough time for the relaxing return journey.
The Cycling Tour
Who says that people who like to take exercise later on in the day always have to walk? Even many Munich residents forget that, in addition to the river Isar, there is a river in the city which is just as beautiful. If you want to explore the river and the associated Wurmtal valley, rent a bike and follow the shore from Pasing over Grafelfing and Gauting as far as Starnberg.
21. Which tour best suits a tourist who prefers doing light exercise?
A. The Sundown Tour. B. The Quick Tour.
C. The Railway Tour. D. The Cycling Tour.
22. What is needed to take the Cycling Tour?
A. A headlamp. B. A guide. C. A mountain bike. D. A railway ticket.
23. What do the four tours have in common?
A. Providing safety experience. B. Demanding a low budget.
C. Covering rivers and valleys. D. Suiting after-work tourists.
【答案】21. B 22. C 23. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是应用文。文章为晚起的人和工作后需要活动的人介绍了四条在大自然徒步旅行的线路。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段最后一句“The tour from the railway station in Tegermsee up to the mountain is comparably short and therefore suitable for all walkers who just want to stretch their legs after work has finished.(从泰格姆西火车站到高山的旅程相对较短，因此适合所有在工作结束后伸展腿的步行者)”可知，The Quick Tour相对比较短适合那些下班后只想伸伸腿做些轻微运动的人。故选B。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。由The Cycling Tour部分的最后一句“If you want to explore the river and the associated Wurmtal valley, rent a bike and follow the shore from Pasing over Grafelfing and Gauting as far as Starnberg.(如果你想探索这条河和相关的沃尔姆塔尔山谷，租一辆自行车，沿着海岸从Pasing越过Grafelfing 和Gauting到斯坦恩堡)”可知，The Cycling Tour需要租一辆自行车沿着海边骑行。故选C。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段倒数第二句“Here are four hiking tours for late risers and after-work athletes.(以下是面向习惯晚期的人和下班后的擅长运动的人的四次徒步旅行)”以及下文介绍的四个徒步旅行方案可知，下文四个旅行的共同点是适合下班后的旅行者。故选D。
B
At a restaurant, a cockroach(蟑螂) suddenly flew from somewhere and sat on a lady. She started screaming out of fear. With a panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to throw away the cockroach. Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group also got panicky.
The lady finally managed to push the cockroach away but ...it landed on another lady in the group. Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama. The waiter rushed forward to their rescue. In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter. The waiter stood firm, composed himself and observed the behavior of the cockroach on his shirt. When he was confident enough, he grabbed it with his fingers and threw it out of the restaurant.
Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, I picked up a few thoughts and started wondering, was the cockroach responsible for their dramatic behavior? If so, then why was the waiter not disturbed? He handled it near to perfection, without any chaos. It is not the cockroach, but the inability of those people to handle the disturbance caused by the cockroach, that disturbed the ladies.
I realized that, it is not the shouting of my father or my boss or my wife that disturbs me, but it's my inability to handle the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbs me. It's not the traffic jams on the road that disturbs me, but my inability to handle the disturbance caused by the traffic jam that disturbs me. More than the problem, it's my reaction to the problem that creates chaos in my life.
24. What does word “the drama” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Escape from the restaurant . B. Sip her coffee.
C. Get rid of the cockroach. D. Rush to the waiter.
25. Which of the following best describes the waiter?
A. Calm. B. Brave. C. Confident. D. Stubborn.
26. What disturbed the lady according to the author?
A. Being laughed at by her group. B. Her fear of the cockroach.
C. Her incapability to deal with the cockroach. D. Her jumping and screaming.
27. What does the author try to convey in the text?
A. It is never too late to learn.
B. Think twice before you act.
C. Always be ready to help others.
D. Your reaction to the problem determines how you feel.
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. C 27. D
【解析】

A computer program has been used to predict how people are feeling when they type.
In a study participants were asked to type a particular phrase and the program then estimated if they were happy, sad and so on. Surprisingly it was correct 70 per cent of the time, and the findings could lead to smarter artificial intelligence in the future.
The study published in the journal Behavior and Information Technology was carried out by researchers at the Islamic University of Technology in Bangladesh, reports Live Science.
In the research 25 people ranging from 15 to 40 years old were asked to retype two paragraphs from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland written by Lewis Carroll. They also had to enter their emotional state every 30 minutes while doing their regular activities on the computer. This allowed the program an opportunity to understand how their emotions changed their typing style.
Moods tested were joy, fear, anger, sadness, hate, and shame. The result was that the program could identify(识别) a person' s mood correctly 70 per cent of the time. It was most successful in identifying joyfulness with an 87 per cent success ratio, while sadness was the least successful at 60 per cent. The researchers found that the participants were less likely to input (输入) data when they were in a bad mood, which may explain the inexactness of the second result.
However, the findings could have great importance for artificial intelligence, and it may allow computers to get along with us in a friendlier manner, “If we could build any system that is intelligent enough to communicate with humans that is, it can identify user emotions and change its behavior accordingly then using machines could be more effective and friendly.” the researchers wrote.
28. Who conducted the study?
A. Lewis Carroll. B. Islamic University of Technology.
C. Live Science. D. Behavior and Information Technology.
29. What were people asked to do during the research?
A. Input words and emotional state. B. Change their typing styles.
C. Change their feelings frequently. D. Show their natural feelings.
30. Why is the result about sadness not so correct?
A. People usually hide their unhappy feelings.
B. The program cannot recognize sadness clearly.
C. The program cannot calculate the data correctly.
D. It's more difficult to collect data when people are sad.
31. What's the importance of the research result?
A. It helps people develop smarter machines.
B. It helps people speed up their typing speed.
C. It will inspire similar studies on people's mood.
D. It clearly explains the relationship between mood and typing.
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. D 31. A

细节理解题。根据第三段The study published in the journal Behavior and Information Technology was carried out by researchers at the Islamic University of Technology in Bangladesh, reports Live Science.（据《生活科学》报道，这项研究发表在《行为与信息技术》杂志上，由孟加拉国伊斯兰科技大学的研究人员进行。）由此可知，伊斯兰科技大学主持了这项研究。故选B。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段In the research 25 people ranging from 15 to 40 years old were asked to retype two paragraphs from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland written by Lewis Carroll. They also had to enter their emotional state every 30 minutes while doing their regular activities on the computer.（在这项研究中，25名年龄在15到40岁之间的人被要求重新键入Lewis Carroll写的《爱丽丝梦游仙境》中的两段文字。他们还必须每隔30分钟输入情绪状态，同时在电脑上进行日常活动。）由此可知，在研究过程中，人们被要求输入文字和情绪状态。故选A。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段The researchers found that the participants were less likely to input (输人) data when they were in a bad mood, which may explain the inexactness of the second result.（研究人员发现，当参与者心情不好时，他们不太可能输入数据，这可以解释第二个结果的不准确性。）由此可知，关于悲伤的结果不是那么准确是因为当人们悲伤时，收集数据就比较困难了。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段However, the findings could have great importance for artificial intelligence, and it may allow computers to get along with us in a friendlier manner, “If we could build any system that is intelligent enough to communicate with humans that is, it can identify user emotions and change its behavior accordingly then using machines could be more effective and friendly.” the researchers wrote.（然而,这些发现可能对人工智能有重要意义,它可能允许计算机与我们以更友好的方式相处,“如果我们能建立任何足够聪明的和人类交流的系统,也就是说,它可以识别用户的情绪,并相应地改变其行为，然后可以更有效和友好的使用机器。”研究人员写道。）由此推知，研究结果的重要性在于帮助人们开发更智能的机器。故选A。

We can video chat with astronauts aboard the International Space Station and watch live footage from the frozen heights of Everest. But communicating with a submarine (潜艇) or a diver is not so easy. The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists. The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water. Sonar (声呐) signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of the water rather than reaching the air.
Now, researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. “What we’ve shown is that it’s actually feasible to communicate from underwater to the air,” says Fadel Adib, a professor at MJT’s Media Lab, who led the research. The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface, making vibrations (震动) corresponding to the 1s and 0s of the data. A surface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations. The researchers call the system TARF. It has any number of potential real-world uses, Adib says. It could be used to find downed planes underwater by reading signals from sonar devices in a plane’s black box and it could allow submarines to communicate with the surface.
Right now the technology is low-resolution (低分辨率). The initial study was conducted in the MIT swimming pool at maximum depths of around 11 or 12 feet. The next steps for the researchers are to see if TARF is workable at much greater depths and under varying conditions—high waves, storms, schools of fish. They also want to see if they can make the technology work in the other direction— air to water.
If the technology proves successful in real-world conditions, expect “texting while diving” to be the latest underwater fashion.
32. What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 1?
A. The future of video chat underwater and in air.
B. The difficulty of communication from water to air.
C. The frustrations of developing underwater devices.
D. The current situation of communicating with a submarine.
33. What does the underlined word “feasible” mean?
A. Convenient. B. Changeable.
C. Achievable. D. Alternative.
34. What do we know about TARF?
A. It is widely used to find downed planes.
B. It can work well at great depths underwater.
C. It is an underwater machine that sends signals.
D. It can send, receive and read signals from underwater.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Real-world Uses of Sonar Technology.
B. Full Air-to-water Communication Closer to Reality.
C. TARF Becoming a New Means of Communication.
D. A Breakthrough in the Application of Submarines.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。水下与陆地上的通信在之前是无法实现的，麻省理工学院的研究人员设计了一个系统TARF，使水中与外界的沟通成为可能。文章介绍了这个通信系统，及研究团队未来的研究方向。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第二、三句“But communicating with a submarine (潜艇) or a diver is not so easy.The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists (但与潜艇或潜水员沟通并不是那么容易。长期以来，缺乏在水下和空中设备之间共享数据的实用方法一直是科学家们的一大难题。)”可知，从水里向空中传递信息，进行交流是很困难的，困扰着科学家们，故第一段主要介绍从水中向空气中传递信息的困难。故选B项。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段第一句“Now,researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. (现在，麻省理工学院的研究人员开发了一种有可能彻底改变水下通信的方法)”可知，一种有可能彻底改变水下通信的方法已经被开发，因此海底与外界的沟通实际上可行了，所以feasible的意思是“可行的、办得到的”，与Achievable意思相近。故选C项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface, making vibrations (震动) corresponding to the 1s and 0s of the data. A surface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations. The researchers call the system TARF. (可知，麻省理工学院的研究人员设计了一个系统，该系统使用水下机器向地面发送声纳信号，使震动对应于数据l和0。 然后，表面接收器读取并解码这些微小的振动。研究人员将系统称为TARF。)”可知，TARF系统可以从水下发送信号、接收和读取水下发送来的信号。故选D项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists. The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water. Sonar (声呐) signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of the water rather than reaching the air. (长期以来，缺乏在水下和空中设备之间共享数据的实用方法一直是科学家们的一大难题。这一困难源于无线电信号在空气中运行良好，但在水中却很差。水下传感器使用的声纳信号在水面折射，而不是到达空气。)”，以及第二段第一句“Now，researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. (现在，麻省理工学院的研究人员开发了一种有可能彻底改变水下通信的方法)”可知，本文介绍的是水下与陆地上的通信在以前是无法实现的，但随着科技的进步，这一通讯逐渐能够变为现实。为突出本文介绍的TARF系统的潜在功能，使用C选项更合适，更能吸引读者的阅读兴趣。故选C项。B选项中“Full Air-to-water Communication”空中到水下的全面接连，在文中无法提现，Full一词夸大了介绍的内容。故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10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。
How to Communicate With a Deaf Person
Communicating with a deaf person doesn’t have to be as difficult as it might seem. The trick is to be patient, straightforward, and to remember that deaf people communicate visually. Before you know it, you’ll forget you were ever worried!
Method 1: Staring Your Conversation
_____36_____You can do this by moving into the person’s field of vision and waving from a polite distance, or by tapping the person gently on the shoulder. If it’s a real emergency, you can also turn the lights off and on quickly.
Position yourself carefully. Make sure that the light in the room is shining directly onto your face, and that you’re not standing with your back to a light. ___37___
Find out how the person prefers to communicate Some deaf people are better lip-readers than others. Some deaf people may prefer to write back and forth or to use an interpreter. Man interactions between the deaf and the hearing require a combination of these methods. ___38___
Method 2: Communicating through Lip-reading.
Keep your sentences simple and use plain language. ____39____The more complex your phrasing and vocabulary, the more likely your deaf companion is to miss something. Try to avoid using slang or expressions that aren’t widely known.
When someone else is speaking, don’t turn away from the deaf person in your group. ____40____You don’t have to look at the deaf person while someone else is talking, but try to make sure your face is visible.
A. Get the person’s attention.
B. It’s important not talk too quickly.
C. Or, they’ll miss parts of the conversation.
D. If so, it’ll make them feel left out of the conversation.
E. Stand directly in front of the person, at a normal distance.
F. The best way to know which methods are most effective is to ask.
G. Try not to be too difficult when using your words in the beginning.

【解析】
【分析】本文属于说明文。文章介绍黄山的三种代表性的事物——云海，温泉以及台阶。
【61题详解】
考查主语从句。句意：这次经历的惊人之处在于这世界之外的景色。此处是主语从句，从句缺乏主语，应用what引导，指代“经历的事情”。故填What。
【62题详解】

【64题详解】

【65题详解】
考查形容词。句意：但大自然就是这样——总是让我们惊讶。此处是“leave +宾语+宾语补足语”，补充说明宾语us的感受，应用-ed结尾形容词astonished，表示人的感受“感到震惊的”。故填astonished。
【66题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：你不禁会想，对当时的人们来说，把这些石头都安置好有多难。分析句子可知，“how hard it 61 (be) for the people then to put all those rocks into place”作wonder的宾语，it是从句的形式主语，不定式为真正主语，谓语动词用单数形式，“安置台阶的石头”是过去的事情，应用一般过去时。故填was。
【67题详解】
考查连词。句意：虽然在上山的路上，这是唯一不自然的事情，但它仍然突出了整个冒险，并且提供了一个你可以坐下来休息你疼痛的双腿的地方。分析句子可知，“highlights the whole adventure”与“offers a place”部分为并列关系，都是作it的谓语，应用并列连词and。故填and。
【68题详解】
考查形容词。句意：虽然在上山的路上，这是唯一不自然的事情，但它仍然突出了整个冒险，并且提供了一个你可以坐下来休息你疼痛的双腿的地方。分析句子及语境可知，此处应用形容词aching“疼痛的”，修饰名词legs，意为“疼痛的双腿”。故填aching。
【69题详解】
考查代词。句意：正如歌中所唱，这条漫长而曲折的道路“永远不会消失”，它将永远留在游客的记忆中。对我来说确实如此。根据前一句“it will always stick in the visitor's memory”可知，本句的does替代前一句的stick，本句缺乏宾语，应用名词性物主代词mine，指代my memory。故填mine。
【70题详解】
考查冠词。句意：当你在中国的时候，黄山是一个你一定要去的地方。must作名词时，意为“绝对必要的事物”，为可数名词，此处泛指“一个必须去的地方”，应用不定冠词，must是以辅音音素开头的词，应用a。故填a。

More and more people attach great importance relationships in career success. Being polite is the first and most important step to develop good relationships among friends. Polite word can be easy yet very powerful in your daily life.

【答案】1. importance后加上to
2. word→words
3. feeling→feel
4. willingly→willing
5. what→how
6. being→be
7. others→other
8. 删除第二个more
9. cost→costs
10. so→but
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了礼貌在生活中的重要性。
【详解】1.考查介词。句意：越来越多的人在事业成功中非常重视人际关系。attach great importance to sth.为固定短语，表示“重视某物”，所以要在importance后加上介词to。故在importance后加上to。
2.考查名词。句意：礼貌的话语在你的日常生活中很容易，但却很有影响力。句中word表示“话，言语”，是可数名词，此处应用名词的复数形式表示泛指。故将word改为words。
3.考查非谓语动词。句意：总是说“请”和“谢谢”会让你的朋友感到更舒服，更愿意在必要时提供帮助。make sb. do sth.为固定搭配，表示“让某人做某事”，所以feel应用动词原形形式。故将feeling改为feel。
4.考查形容词。句意：总是说“请”和“谢谢”会让你的朋友感到更舒服，更愿意在必要时提供帮助。feel willing to do sth.为固定短语，表示“感觉愿意做某事”，应用形容词willing，与feel构成系表结构。故将willingly改为willing。
5.考查连词。句意：我们都知道，一个人的成功取决于他如何与人打交道。分析句子结构，介词on后的宾语从句中缺少方式状语，应用how引导从句，修饰动词短语deal with。故将what改为how。
6.考查祈使句。句意：始终感激他人的好意，并通过你所说的话表达你的感激之情。分析句子结构可知，本句为两个祈使句并列，省略主语you，应用动词原形形式置于句首。故将being改为be。
7.考查形容词。句意：始终感激他人的好意，并通过你所说的话表达你的感激之情。结合语意，此处表示“其他人的好意”，应用形容词other，表示“其他的”，other people表示“其他人”，符合题意。故将others改为other。
8.考查副词比较级。句意：你从别人那里获得的支持越多，你就能越快朝着目标前进。faster为副词fast的比较级形式，前边不需要使用more。故删除第二个more。
9.考查主谓一致。句意：记住，礼貌无需任何费用，但它值一百万美元。根据句中it’s以及句意可知，句子描述现在的一般情况，应用一般现在时，动名词短语作句子主语，谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式costs。故将cost改为costs。
10.考查连词。句意：记住，礼貌无需任何费用，但它值一百万美元。结合语意，句子前后表示转折关系，应用连词but，表示“但是”。故将so改为but。

A
This is not a problem in Munich even if it is already the afternoon. The last light of the day can always be enjoyed. Here are four hiking tours for late risers and after-work athletes. Let’s get out into nature quickly.
The Sundown Tour
With a bit of luck, after 5 p. m. you will have the whole view to yourself. Lake Walchensee lies below, opposite is the Herzogstand mountain, with the red sun setting below it. If you are walking down the mountain in the dark, however, you should always have headlamps with you, otherwise it will become too dangerous.
The Quick Tour
Sometimes the god stuff is so much closer than you think, on the Neureuth mountain, for example. The tour from the railway station in Tegermsee up to the mountain is comparably short and therefore suitable for all walkers who just want to stretch their legs after work has finished.
The Railway Tour
The greatest advantage of the Laber for late-in-the-day leisure walkers lies, however, in the mountain railway: its last trip down the mountain doesn’t leave until between 4:30 p.m. and 5 p.m. So you do not need to worry whether you still have enough time for the relaxing return journey.
The Cycling Tour
Who says that people who like to take exercise later on in the day always have to walk? Even many Munich residents forget that, in addition to the river Isar, there is a river in the city which is just as beautiful. If you want to explore the river and the associated Wurmtal valley, rent a bike and follow the shore from Pasing over Grafelfing and Gauting as far as Starnberg.
21. Which tour best suits a tourist who prefers doing light exercise?
A. The Sundown Tour. B. The Quick Tour.
C. The Railway Tour. D. The Cycling Tour.
22. What is needed to take the Cycling Tour?
A. A headlamp. B. A guide. C. A mountain bike. D. A railway ticket.
23 What do the four tours have in common?
A. Providing safety experience. B. Demanding a low budget.
C. Covering rivers and valleys. D. Suiting after-work tourists.
B
At a restaurant, a cockroach(蟑螂) suddenly flew from somewhere and sat on a lady. She started screaming out of fear. With a panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to throw away the cockroach. Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group also got panicky.
The lady finally managed to push the cockroach away but ...it landed on another lady in the group. Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama. The waiter rushed forward to their rescue. In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter. The waiter stood firm, composed himself and observed the behavior of the cockroach on his shirt. When he was confident enough, he grabbed it with his fingers and threw it out of the restaurant.
Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, I picked up a few thoughts and started wondering, was the cockroach responsible for their dramatic behavior? If so, then why was the waiter not disturbed? He handled it near to perfection, without any chaos. It is not the cockroach, but the inability of those people to handle the disturbance caused by the cockroach, that disturbed the ladies.
I realized that, it is not the shouting of my father or my boss or my wife that disturbs me, but it's my inability to handle the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbs me. It's not the traffic jams on the road that disturbs me, but my inability to handle the disturbance caused by the traffic jam that disturbs me. More than the problem, it's my reaction to the problem that creates chaos in my life.
24 What does word “the drama” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Escape from the restaurant . B. Sip her coffee.
C. Get rid of the cockroach. D. Rush to the waiter.
25. Which of the following best describes the waiter?
A. Calm. B. Brave. C. Confident. D. Stubborn.
26. What disturbed the lady according to the author?
A. Being laughed at by her group. B. Her fear of the cockroach.
C. Her incapability to deal with the cockroach. D. Her jumping and screaming.
27. What does the author try to convey in the text?
A. It is never too late to learn.
B. Think twice before you act.
C. Always be ready to help others.
D. Your reaction to the problem determines how you feel.
C
A computer program has been used to predict how people are feeling when they type.
In a study participants were asked to type a particular phrase and the program then estimated if they were happy, sad and so on. Surprisingly it was correct 70 per cent of the time, and the findings could lead to smarter artificial intelligence in the future.
The study published in the journal Behavior and Information Technology was carried out by researchers at the Islamic University of Technology in Bangladesh, reports Live Science.
In the research 25 people ranging from 15 to 40 years old were asked to retype two paragraphs from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland written by Lewis Carroll. They also had to enter their emotional state every 30 minutes while doing their regular activities on the computer. This allowed the program an opportunity to understand how their emotions changed their typing style.
Moods tested were joy, fear, anger, sadness, hate, and shame. The result was that the program could identify(识别) a person' s mood correctly 70 per cent of the time. It was most successful in identifying joyfulness with an 87 per cent success ratio, while sadness was the least successful at 60 per cent. The researchers found that the participants were less likely to input (输入) data when they were in a bad mood, which may explain the inexactness of the second result.
However, the findings could have great importance for artificial intelligence, and it may allow computers to get along with us in a friendlier manner, “If we could build any system that is intelligent enough to communicate with humans that is, it can identify user emotions and change its behavior accordingly then using machines could be more effective and friendly.” the researchers wrote.
28. Who conducted the study?
A. Lewis Carroll. B. Islamic University of Technology.
C. Live Science. D. Behavior and Information Technology.
29. What were people asked to do during the research?
A. Input words and emotional state. B. Change their typing styles.
C. Change their feelings frequently. D. Show their natural feelings.
30. Why is the result about sadness not so correct?
A. People usually hide their unhappy feelings.
B. The program cannot recognize sadness clearly.
C. The program cannot calculate the data correctly.
D. It's more difficult to collect data when people are sad.
31. What's the importance of the research result?
A. It helps people develop smarter machines.
B. It helps people speed up their typing speed.
C. It will inspire similar studies on people's mood.
D. It clearly explains the relationship between mood and typing.
D
We can video chat with astronauts aboard the International Space Station and watch live footage from the frozen heights of Everest. But communicating with a submarine (潜艇) or a diver is not so easy. The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists. The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water. Sonar (声呐) signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of the water rather than reaching the air.
Now, researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. “What we’ve shown is that it’s actually feasible to communicate from underwater to the air,” says Fadel Adib, a professor at MJT’s Media Lab, who led the research. The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface, making vibrations (震动) corresponding to the 1s and 0s of the data. A surface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations. The researchers call the system TARF. It has any number of potential real-world uses, Adib says. It could be used to find downed planes underwater by reading signals from sonar devices in a plane’s black box and it could allow submarines to communicate with the surface.
Right now the technology is low-resolution (低分辨率). The initial study was conducted in the MIT swimming pool at maximum depths of around 11 or 12 feet. The next steps for the researchers are to see if TARF is workable at much greater depths and under varying conditions—high waves, storms, schools of fish. They also want to see if they can make the technology work in the other direction— air to water.
If the technology proves successful in real-world conditions, expect “texting while diving” to be the latest underwater fashion.
32. What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 1?
A. The future of video chat underwater and in air.
B. The difficulty of communication from water to air.
C. The frustrations of developing underwater devices.
D. The current situation of communicating with a submarine.
33. What does the underlined word “feasible” mean?
A. Convenient. B. Changeable.
C. Achievable. D. Alternative.
34. What do we know about TARF?
A. It is widely used to find downed planes.
B. It can work well at great depths underwater.
C. It is an underwater machine that sends signals.
D. It can send, receive and read signals from underwater.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Real-world Uses of Sonar Technology.
B. Full Air-to-water Communication Closer to Reality.
C. TARF Becoming a New Means of Communication.
D. A Breakthrough in the Application of Submarines.

How to Communicate With a Deaf Person
Communicating with a deaf person doesn’t have to be as difficult as it might seem. The trick is to be patient, straightforward, and to remember that deaf people communicate visually. Before you know it, you’ll forget you were ever worried!

Find out how the person prefers to communicate. Some deaf people are better lip-readers than others. Some deaf people may prefer to write back and forth or to use an interpreter. Man interactions between the deaf and the hearing require a combination of these methods. ___38___
Method 2: Communicating through Lip-reading.
Keep your sentences simple and use plain language. ____39____The more complex your phrasing and vocabulary the more likely your deaf companion is to miss something. Try to avoid using slang or expressions that aren’t widely known.
When someone else is speaking, don’t turn away from the deaf person in your group. ____40____You don’t have to look at the deaf person while someone else is talking, but try to make sure your face is visible.
A. Get the person’s attention.
B. It’s important not talk too quickly.
C. Or, they’ll miss parts of the conversation.

A
This is not a problem in Munich even if it is already the afternoon. The last light of the day can always be enjoyed. Here are four hiking tours for late risers and after-work athletes. Let’s get out into nature quickly.
The Sundown Tour
With a bit of luck, after 5 p. m. you will have the whole view to yourself. Lake Walchensee lies below, opposite is the Herzogstand mountain, with the red sun setting below it. If you are walking down the mountain in the dark, however, you should always have headlamps with you, otherwise it will become too dangerous.
The Quick Tour
Sometimes the god stuff is so much closer than you think, on the Neureuth mountain, for example. The tour from the railway station in Tegermsee up to the mountain is comparably short and therefore suitable for all walkers who just want to stretch their legs after work has finished.
The Railway Tour
The greatest advantage of the Laber for late-in-the-day leisure walkers lies, however, in the mountain railway: its last trip down the mountain doesn’t leave until between 4:30 p.m. and 5 p.m. So you do not need to worry whether you still have enough time for the relaxing return journey.
The Cycling Tour
Who says that people who like to take exercise later on in the day always have to walk? Even many Munich residents forget that, in addition to the river Isar, there is a river in the city which is just as beautiful. If you want to explore the river and the associated Wurmtal valley, rent a bike and follow the shore from Pasing over Grafelfing and Gauting as far as Starnberg.
21. Which tour best suits a tourist who prefers doing light exercise?
A. The Sundown Tour. B. The Quick Tour.
C. The Railway Tour. D. The Cycling Tour.
22. What is needed to take the Cycling Tour?
A. A headlamp. B. A guide. C. A mountain bike. D. A railway ticket.
23. What do the four tours have in common?
A. Providing safety experience. B. Demanding a low budget.
C. Covering rivers and valleys. D. Suiting after-work tourists.
【答案】21. B 22. C 23. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是应用文。文章为晚起的人和工作后需要活动的人介绍了四条在大自然徒步旅行的线路。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段最后一句“The tour from the railway station in Tegermsee up to the mountain is comparably short and therefore suitable for all walkers who just want to stretch their legs after work has finished.(从泰格姆西火车站到高山的旅程相对较短，因此适合所有在工作结束后伸展腿的步行者)”可知，The Quick Tour相对比较短适合那些下班后只想伸伸腿做些轻微运动的人。故选B。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。由The Cycling Tour部分的最后一句“If you want to explore the river and the associated Wurmtal valley, rent a bike and follow the shore from Pasing over Grafelfing and Gauting as far as Starnberg.(如果你想探索这条河和相关的沃尔姆塔尔山谷，租一辆自行车，沿着海岸从Pasing越过Grafelfing 和Gauting到斯坦恩堡)”可知，The Cycling Tour需要租一辆自行车沿着海边骑行。故选C。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段倒数第二句“Here are four hiking tours for late risers and after-work athletes.(以下是面向习惯晚期的人和下班后的擅长运动的人的四次徒步旅行)”以及下文介绍的四个徒步旅行方案可知，下文四个旅行的共同点是适合下班后的旅行者。故选D。
B
At a restaurant, a cockroach(蟑螂) suddenly flew from somewhere and sat on a lady. She started screaming out of fear. With a panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to throw away the cockroach. Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group also got panicky.
The lady finally managed to push the cockroach away but ...it landed on another lady in the group. Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama. The waiter rushed forward to their rescue. In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter. The waiter stood firm, composed himself and observed the behavior of the cockroach on his shirt. When he was confident enough, he grabbed it with his fingers and threw it out of the restaurant.
Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, I picked up a few thoughts and started wondering, was the cockroach responsible for their dramatic behavior? If so, then why was the waiter not disturbed? He handled it near to perfection, without any chaos. It is not the cockroach, but the inability of those people to handle the disturbance caused by the cockroach, that disturbed the ladies.
I realized that, it is not the shouting of my father or my boss or my wife that disturbs me, but it's my inability to handle the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbs me. It's not the traffic jams on the road that disturbs me, but my inability to handle the disturbance caused by the traffic jam that disturbs me. More than the problem, it's my reaction to the problem that creates chaos in my life.
24. What does word “the drama” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Escape from the restaurant . B. Sip her coffee.
C. Get rid of the cockroach. D. Rush to the waiter.
25. Which of the following best describes the waiter?
A. Calm. B. Brave. C. Confident. D. Stubborn.
26. What disturbed the lady according to the author?
A. Being laughed at by her group. B. Her fear of the cockroach.
C. Her incapability to deal with the cockroach. D. Her jumping and screaming.
27. What does the author try to convey in the text?
A. It is never too late to learn.
B. Think twice before you act.
C. Always be ready to help others.
D. Your reaction to the problem determines how you feel.
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. C 27. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是记叙文。讲述了一个由蟑螂引发思考的故事。

A computer program has been used to predict how people are feeling when they type.
In a study participants were asked to type a particular phrase and the program then estimated if they were happy, sad and so on. Surprisingly it was correct 70 per cent of the time, and the findings could lead to smarter artificial intelligence in the future.
The study published in the journal Behavior and Information Technology was carried out by researchers at the Islamic University of Technology in Bangladesh, reports Live Science.
In the research 25 people ranging from 15 to 40 years old were asked to retype two paragraphs from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland written by Lewis Carroll. They also had to enter their emotional state every 30 minutes while doing their regular activities on the computer. This allowed the program an opportunity to understand how their emotions changed their typing style.
Moods tested were joy, fear, anger, sadness, hate, and shame. The result was that the program could identify(识别) a person' s mood correctly 70 per cent of the time. It was most successful in identifying joyfulness with an 87 per cent success ratio, while sadness was the least successful at 60 per cent. The researchers found that the participants were less likely to input (输入) data when they were in a bad mood, which may explain the inexactness of the second result.
However, the findings could have great importance for artificial intelligence, and it may allow computers to get along with us in a friendlier manner, “If we could build any system that is intelligent enough to communicate with humans that is, it can identify user emotions and change its behavior accordingly then using machines could be more effective and friendly.” the researchers wrote.
28. Who conducted the study?
A. Lewis Carroll. B. Islamic University of Technology.
C. Live Science. D. Behavior and Information Technology.
29. What were people asked to do during the research?
A. Input words and emotional state. B. Change their typing styles.
C. Change their feelings frequently. D. Show their natural feelings.
30. Why is the result about sadness not so correct?
A. People usually hide their unhappy feelings.
B. The program cannot recognize sadness clearly.
C. The program cannot calculate the data correctly.
D. It's more difficult to collect data when people are sad.
31. What's the importance of the research result?
A. It helps people develop smarter machines.
B. It helps people speed up their typing speed.
C. It will inspire similar studies on people's mood.
D. It clearly explains the relationship between mood and typing.

We can video chat with astronauts aboard the International Space Station and watch live footage from the frozen heights of Everest. But communicating with a submarine (潜艇) or a diver is not so easy. The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists. The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water. Sonar (声呐) signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of the water rather than reaching the air.
Now, researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. “What we’ve shown is that it’s actually feasible to communicate from underwater to the air,” says Fadel Adib, a professor at MJT’s Media Lab, who led the research. The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface, making vibrations (震动) corresponding to the 1s and 0s of the data. A surface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations. The researchers call the system TARF. It has any number of potential real-world uses, Adib says. It could be used to find downed planes underwater by reading signals from sonar devices in a plane’s black box and it could allow submarines to communicate with the surface.
Right now the technology is low-resolution (低分辨率). The initial study was conducted in the MIT swimming pool at maximum depths of around 11 or 12 feet. The next steps for the researchers are to see if TARF is workable at much greater depths and under varying conditions—high waves, storms, schools of fish. They also want to see if they can make the technology work in the other direction— air to water.
If the technology proves successful in real-world conditions, expect “texting while diving” to be the latest underwater fashion.
32. What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 1?
A. The future of video chat underwater and in air.
B. The difficulty of communication from water to air.
C. The frustrations of developing underwater devices.
D. The current situation of communicating with a submarine.
33. What does the underlined word “feasible” mean?
A. Convenient. B. Changeable.
C. Achievable. D. Alternative.
34. What do we know about TARF?
A. It is widely used to find downed planes.
B. It can work well at great depths underwater.
C. It is an underwater machine that sends signals.
D. It can send, receive and read signals from underwater.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Real-world Uses of Sonar Technology.
B. Full Air-to-water Communication Closer to Reality.
C. TARF Becoming a New Means of Communication.
D. A Breakthrough in the Application of Submarines.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。水下与陆地上的通信在之前是无法实现的，麻省理工学院的研究人员设计了一个系统TARF，使水中与外界的沟通成为可能。文章介绍了这个通信系统，及研究团队未来的研究方向。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第二、三句“But communicating with a submarine (潜艇) or a diver is not so easy.The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists (但与潜艇或潜水员沟通并不是那么容易。长期以来，缺乏在水下和空中设备之间共享数据的实用方法一直是科学家们的一大难题。)”可知，从水里向空中传递信息，进行交流是很困难的，困扰着科学家们，故第一段主要介绍从水中向空气中传递信息的困难。故选B项。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段第一句“Now,researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. (现在，麻省理工学院的研究人员开发了一种有可能彻底改变水下通信的方法)”可知，一种有可能彻底改变水下通信的方法已经被开发，因此海底与外界的沟通实际上可行了，所以feasible的意思是“可行的、办得到的”，与Achievable意思相近。故选C项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface, making vibrations (震动) corresponding to the 1s and 0s of the data. A surface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations. The researchers call the system TARF. (可知，麻省理工学院的研究人员设计了一个系统，该系统使用水下机器向地面发送声纳信号，使震动对应于数据l和0。 然后，表面接收器读取并解码这些微小的振动。研究人员将系统称为TARF。)”可知，TARF系统可以从水下发送信号、接收和读取水下发送来的信号。故选D项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists. The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water. Sonar (声呐) signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of the water rather than reaching the air. (长期以来，缺乏在水下和空中设备之间共享数据的实用方法一直是科学家们的一大难题。这一困难源于无线电信号在空气中运行良好，但在水中却很差。水下传感器使用的声纳信号在水面折射，而不是到达空气。)”，以及第二段第一句“Now，researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication. (现在，麻省理工学院的研究人员开发了一种有可能彻底改变水下通信的方法)”可知，本文介绍的是水下与陆地上的通信在以前是无法实现的，但随着科技的进步，这一通讯逐渐能够变为现实。为突出本文介绍的TARF系统的潜在功能，使用C选项更合适，更能吸引读者的阅读兴趣。故选C项。B选项中“Full Air-to-water Communication”空中到水下的全面接连，在文中无法提现，Full一词夸大了介绍的内容。故选C。

【解析】
【分析】本文属于说明文。文章介绍黄山的三种代表性的事物——云海，温泉以及台阶。
【61题详解】
考查主语从句。句意：这次经历的惊人之处在于这世界之外的景色。此处是主语从句，从句缺乏主语，应用what引导，指代“经历的事情”。故填What。
【62题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：当你站在黄山山顶看见波涛汹涌般的云海，你会想到我们人类是多么的渺小。human是we的同位语，we为复数，应用human的复数形式。故填humans。
【63题详解】
考查副词。句意：它无疑会帮助你恢复精神！此处修饰动词help，应用副词undoubtedly“毫无疑问地”。故填undoubtedly。
【64题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意：关于黄山温泉让人惊讶的是，气温越低，温泉越暖和！此处是固定结构“the +比较级，the+比较级”，意为“越……，越……”。故填hotter。
【65题详解】
考查形容词。句意：但大自然就是这样——总是让我们惊讶。此处是“leave +宾语+宾语补足语”，补充说明宾语us的感受，应用-ed结尾形容词astonished，表示人的感受“感到震惊的”。故填astonished。
【66题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：你不禁会想，对当时的人们来说，把这些石头都安置好有多难。分析句子可知，“how hard it 61 (be) for the people then to put all those rocks into place”作wonder的宾语，it是从句的形式主语，不定式为真正主语，谓语动词用单数形式，“安置台阶的石头”是过去的事情，应用一般过去时。故填was。
【67题详解】
考查连词。句意：虽然在上山的路上，这是唯一不自然的事情，但它仍然突出了整个冒险，并且提供了一个你可以坐下来休息你疼痛的双腿的地方。分析句子可知，“highlights the whole adventure”与“offers a place”部分为并列关系，都是作it的谓语，应用并列连词and。故填and。
【68题详解】
考查形容词。句意：虽然在上山的路上，这是唯一不自然的事情，但它仍然突出了整个冒险，并且提供了一个你可以坐下来休息你疼痛的双腿的地方。分析句子及语境可知，此处应用形容词aching“疼痛的”，修饰名词legs，意为“疼痛的双腿”。故填aching。
【69题详解】
考查代词。句意：正如歌中所唱，这条漫长而曲折的道路“永远不会消失”，它将永远留在游客的记忆中。对我来说确实如此。根据前一句“it will always stick in the visitor's memory”可知，本句的does替代前一句的stick，本句缺乏宾语，应用名词性物主代词mine，指代my memory。故填mine。
【70题详解】
考查冠词。句意：当你在中国的时候，黄山是一个你一定要去的地方。must作名词时，意为“绝对必要的事物”，为可数名词，此处泛指“一个必须去的地方”，应用不定冠词，must是以辅音音素开头的词，应用a。故填a。

3. feeling→feel
4. willingly→willing
5. what→how

7. others→other
8. 删除第二个more
9. cost→costs
10. so→but
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了礼貌在生活中的重要性。
【详解】1.考查介词。句意：越来越多的人在事业成功中非常重视人际关系。attach great importance to sth.为固定短语，表示“重视某物”，所以要在importance后加上介词to。故在importance后加上to。
2.考查名词。句意：礼貌的话语在你的日常生活中很容易，但却很有影响力。句中word表示“话，言语”，是可数名词，此处应用名词的复数形式表示泛指。故将word改为words。
3.考查非谓语动词。句意：总是说“请”和“谢谢”会让你的朋友感到更舒服，更愿意在必要时提供帮助。make sb. do sth.为固定搭配，表示“让某人做某事”，所以feel应用动词原形形式。故将feeling改为feel。
4.考查形容词。句意：总是说“请”和“谢谢”会让你的朋友感到更舒服，更愿意在必要时提供帮助。feel willing to do sth.为固定短语，表示“感觉愿意做某事”，应用形容词willing，与feel构成系表结构。故将willingly改为willing。
5.考查连词。句意：我们都知道，一个人的成功取决于他如何与人打交道。分析句子结构，介词on后的宾语从句中缺少方式状语，应用how引导从句，修饰动词短语deal with。故将what改为how。
6.考查祈使句。句意：始终感激他人的好意，并通过你所说的话表达你的感激之情。分析句子结构可知，本句为两个祈使句并列，省略主语you，应用动词原形形式置于句首。故将being改为be。
7.考查形容词。句意：始终感激他人的好意，并通过你所说的话表达你的感激之情。结合语意，此处表示“其他人的好意”，应用形容词other，表示“其他的”，other people表示“其他人”，符合题意。故将others改为other。
8.考查副词比较级。句意：你从别人那里获得的支持越多，你就能越快朝着目标前进。faster为副词fast的比较级形式，前边不需要使用more。故删除第二个more。
9.考查主谓一致。句意：记住，礼貌无需任何费用，但它值一百万美元。根据句中it’s以及句意可知，句子描述现在的一般情况，应用一般现在时，动名词短语作句子主语，谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式costs。故将cost改为costs。
10.考查连词。句意：记住，礼貌无需任何费用，但它值一百万美元。结合语意，句子前后表示转折关系，应用连词but，表示“但是”。故将so改为but。
