B
Raised in a motherless home, my father was extremely tight-fisted（吝啬的）towards us children. His attitude didn't soften as I grew into adulthood and went to college. I had to ride the bus whenever I came home. Though the bus stopped about two miles from home, Dad never met me, even in severe weather. If I grumbled, he'd say in his loudest father-voice, "That's what your legs are for！"
The walk didn't bother me as much as the fear of walking alone along the highway and country roads. I also felt less valued because my father didn't seem concerned about my safety. But that feeling disappeared one spring evening.
It had been a particularly difficult week at college after long hours in labs. I longed for home. When the bus reached the stop, I stepped off the bus and dragged my suitcase to begin the long journey home.
A row of hedges（树篱）edged the driveway that climbed the hill to our house. Once I had turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey, I always had a sense of relief to see the hedge because it meant that I was almost home. On that particular evening, the hedge had just come into view when I saw something gray moving along the top of the hedge, moving toward the house. Upon closer observation, I realized it was the top of my father's head. Then I knew, each time I'd come home, he had stood behind the hedge, watching, until he knew I had arrived safely. I held back my tears. He did care, after all.
On later visits, that spot of gray became my watchtower. I could hardly wait until I was close enough to watch for its secret movement above the greenery. Upon arriving home, I would find my father sitting innocently in his chair. "So! My son, it's you!" he'd say, his face lengthening into pretended surprise.
I replied, "Yes, Dad, it's me. I’m home."
4. What does the underlined word "grumbled" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Accepted happily. B. Spoke unhappily.
C. Agreed willingly. D. Explained clearly.
5. What made the author feel upset?
A. The tiredness after long hours in labs.
B. The difficulty walking on the mountain road.
C. The feeling of being less valued.
D. The fear of riding the bus home.
6. Why did the author's father watch behind the hedge？
A. Because he wanted to help his son build up courage.
B. Because he was concerned about his son's safety.
C. Because he didn't want to meet his son in the doorway.
D. Because he wanted to give his son a surprise.
7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text？
A. Terrible Journey Home B. My College Life
C. My Father's Secret D. Riding Bus Alone
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。作者的父亲对他很严格，以至于作者觉得父亲不爱自己。作者开始时误解了父亲，一次偶然的机会使作者理解了父亲，作者感受到了深深的父爱。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。由第一段“ Though the bus stopped about two miles from home, Dad never met me, even in severe weather. If I grumbled, he'd say in his loudest father-voice, "That's what your legs are for！”可知，尽管巴士在离家两英里的地方会停下来，但爸爸从未接过我，即使是在恶劣的天气里。如果我发牢骚，他会用他最响亮的声音说，“这就是你的腿的作用！”所以通过上下文的语境可以推断出grumble意为“不高兴地说话”。故B选项正确。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段的“ I also felt less valued because my father didn't seem concerned about my safety.”可知，我也觉得自己没那么受重视，因为我父亲似乎并不关心我的安全。所以不受重视使作者感到沮丧。故C选项正确。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。由第四段的"Then I knew, each time I'd come home, he had stood behind the hedge, watching, until he knew I had arrived safely"可知，然后我知道，每次我回家，他都站在树篱后面，看着，直到他知道我已经安全到达。所以父亲每次都在树篱后注视着作者是因为父亲担心作者的安全。故B选项正确。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文的内容可知，作者的父亲对他很严格，以至于作者觉得父亲不爱自己，作者开始时误解了父亲，一次偶然的机会使作者理解了父亲，感受到了深深的父爱。父亲的爱是伟大，父亲表面上冷峻，实际上默默地关注着作者。所以短文的最佳为“父亲的秘密。”故C选项正确。
C
What is a star? We are all pretty familiar with stars. We see them on most clear nights as tiny shining light spots of light in the sky. Stars are the topic of countless poems, stories, and children’s songs. But, exactly, what is a star?
A star is a ball of gas, which gives out light. The gas is mostly made up of H₂ and He, held together by its own gravity. Nuclear fusion(核聚变)reactions in its center part support the star against gravity and produce photons(光子)and heat, as well as small amounts of heavier elements. The Sun is the closest star to Earth.
According to present theory, stars are born as a huge ball within huge gas clouds that fall in suddenly themselves. The cloud’s material heats up as it falls inward under the force of its own gravity. When the gas reaches about 10 million K(18 million℉), H₂ nucleus(原子核)begin to fuse into He nucleus, and the star is born. Energy from nuclear fusion radiates outward from the center of the rapid-growing star, and gradually prevents the gas cloud from falling in.
A star’s color relies on its temperature: hotter stars give out bluer light and cooler stars give out redder light. Temperature is also related to weight. Red dwarf stars have as little as 0.075 solar and the surface temperature is less than 4,000 K. The heaviest star known at present is R136a1, a Wolf-Rayet star 265 of times the Sun—its surface temperature keeps at a red-hot 50,000 K.
The heaviest and hottest stars exhaust their energy within a few million years, while tiny and cool red dwarf stars can keep on burning for many billions of years.
8. What can we learn about stars from the first paragraph?
A. They are children’s favorites.
B. They are small shining light clouds.
C. They are popular with writers.
D. They are seldom described in stories.
9. What does the author mainly intend to tell us in paragraph 3?
A. Why stars give out light.
B. What starts are made up of.
C. How stars come into being.
D. Where stars finally go.
10. What makes stars’ color different from each other?
A. The kind of gas included in them.
B. Their surface shapes.
C. The distance between them.
D. Their temperatures.
11. What’s the best title for the text?
A. What Is a Star?
B. How Does a Star Affect Earth?
C. Why Is a Star Important?
D. Where Does a Star Come from?
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了我们都很熟悉星星的产生，颜色以及温度。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。文章第一段讲到“Stars are the topic of countless poems, stories, and children’s songs. (星星是无数诗歌、故事和儿歌的主题。)”可知从第一段中我们可以了解到星星深受作家欢迎，故选C。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第三段讲到“According to present theory, stars are born as a huge ball within huge gas clouds that fall in suddenly themselves. The cloud’s material heats up as it falls inward under the force of its own gravity. When the gas reaches about 10 million K(18 million℉), H₂ nucleus(原子核)begin to fuse into He nucleus, and the star is born.(根据目前的理论，恒星诞生时是巨大的气体云中的一个巨大的球，这些气体云自身突然落下。云的物质在自身引力的作用下向内下降时温度升高。当气体达到约1000万K(1800万℉)时，H₂核开始融合成He核，恒星诞生。)”可知作者在第三段中主要想告诉我们星星是如何产生的，故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。文章第四段讲到“A star’s color relies on its temperature: hotter stars give out bluer light and cooler stars give out redder light. (恒星的颜色取决于它的温度：较热的恒星发出蓝光，较冷的恒星发出红光。)”可知是使星星的颜色彼此不同的原因是他们的温度，故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了我们都很熟悉星星的产生，颜色以及温度。尤其文章第一段讲到“But, exactly, what is a star? (但是，确切地说，星星是什么？)”可知文章的最佳标题是：什么是星星，故选A。
D
At Bamfield, a coastal community in British Columbia, Canada, 84-year-old Louis Druchl is guiding The Kelp Express along the shore. For 51 years, the boat has taken him to Kelp Bay. There, ropes of seaweed are growing beneath the water’s surface. Seaweed is Druehl’s life. He has studied it, farmed it, cooked it, and written a book about it. Over the years, Druehl has seen interest in seaweed rise and fall. But as climate change affects the planet, the world is turning to seaweed as a possible way to solve that. “People have discovered seaweed,” he said. “They’ve discovered us.”
People think of forests as the best protection against climate change. But some researchers say seaweed is a better way. Unlike trees, seaweed doesn’t need fertilizers or fresh water. It grows faster than trees do and doesn’t require any land. It helps balance ocean ecosystems. And it absorbs carbon from the environment.
Seaweed could also become a key global food source. Many worry about the environmental influence of eating meat. Could seaweed farms provide enough protein for the world? Carlos Duarte, a professor of marine ecology, thinks so. “When you look at how we are going to feed the world population by 2050, in a way that doesn’t harm the environment, there is only one pathway,” he says. “Seaweed farming.” In the past ten years or so, global seaweed production has doubled. In British Columbia, there’s a long line of seaweed farmers waiting to learn from Louis Druehl.
Seaweed might fight climate change. But it isn’t without its risks. If it isn’t harvested, it can rot(腐烂)and put carbon back into the air or water. Growing too much of it could also affect the amount of light that reaches species living deeper in the water. That would be dangerous for underwater ecosystems. Halley Froehlich is an assistant professor at the University of California. She says “seaweed can be a part of the solution to climate change, but it’s not a perfect solution on its own”.
12. How does Louis Druehl feel about his lifestyle?
A. He would rather work as a writer. B. He loves what he does for a living.
C. He finds planting seaweed very tiring. D. He thinks life at sea keeps him healthy.
13. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The problems forests can solve. B. How seaweed is different from trees.
C. Why seaweed can fight climate change. D. The places that are fit for seaweed farming.
14. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. Seaweed doesn’t need much care. B. Seaweed doesn’t have enough protein.
C. British Columbia’s population is increasing. D. Interest in seaweed as a food source is growing.
15. Why does the author mention Halley Froehlich’s words?
A. To prove climate change is the result of human activities.
B. To suggest new types of seaweed are being developed.
C. To show seaweed farming needs proper management.
D. To question the role of seaweed in climate change.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了海藻可以对抗气候变化，同时也可能成为关键的全球食物来源，但其中也存在风险。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Seaweed is Druehl’s life. He has studied it, farmed it, cooked it, and written a book about it. Over the years, Druehl has seen interest in seaweed rise and fall. But as climate change affects the planet, the world is turning to seaweed as a possible way to solve that.(海藻是德鲁尔的生命。他研究它，种植它，烹饪它，并写了一本关于它的书。多年来，德鲁尔看到了对海藻的兴趣的上升和下降。但随着气候变化对地球的影响，世界正在转向海藻作为解决这一问题的可能方法)”可知，路易·德鲁尔热爱他赖以为生的工作。故选B。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“People think of forests as the best protection against climate change. But some researchers say seaweed is a better way. Unlike trees, seaweed doesn’t need fertilizers or fresh water. It grows faster than trees do and doesn’t require any land. It helps balance ocean ecosystems. And it absorbs carbon from the environment.(人们认为森林是抵御气候变化的最佳保护措施。但一些研究人员表示，海藻是一种更好的方法。与树木不同，海藻不需要化肥或淡水。它比树木长得快，而且不需要任何土地。它有助于平衡海洋生态系统。它从环境中吸收碳)”可知，第二段主要讲的是为什么海藻可以对抗气候变化。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Seaweed could also become a key global food source.(海藻也可能成为关键的全球食物来源)”以及“In the past ten years or so, global seaweed production has doubled. In British Columbia, there’s a long line of seaweed farmers waiting to learn from Louis Druehl.(在过去十年左右的时间里，全球海藻产量翻了一番。在不列颠哥伦比亚省，有一大群海藻养殖户等着向路易斯·德鲁尔学习)”可知，对海藻作为食物来源的兴趣正在增长。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Growing too much of it could also affect the amount of light that reaches species living deeper in the water. That would be dangerous for underwater ecosystems. Halley Froehlich is an assistant professor at the University of California. She says seaweed “can be a part of the solution to climate change, but it’s not a perfect solution on its own”.(过多的生长也会影响到达生活在深海的物种的光量。这对水下生态系统来说是危险的。Halley Froehlich是加州大学的一名助理教授。她说，“海藻可以成为气候变化解决方案的一部分，但它本身并不是一个完美的解决方案”)”可知，作者提到Halley Froehlich的话是为了说明海藻养殖需要适当的管理。故选C。

37. Known 38. when
39. an 40. eventually
41. from 42. choosing
43. impressive
44. to select
45. curiosity
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，讲述的是每年都有许多著名的奖项颁发给有创造力的人，其中一个奖项是颁发给儿童小说的最佳新作，该奖项被称为纽伯里奖。
【36题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：每年，我们喜欢的书的有创造力的作者都会被授予许多杰出的奖项。由every year可知，句子要使用一般现在时，主语prizes承受award的动作，因此award还要使用被动语态。故填are awarded。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：该奖项被称为纽伯瑞奖，它始于1921年，当时Frederic Melcher建议美国图书馆协会设立年度最佳新儿童读物奖。空格处动词know在句子中做非谓语，和逻辑主语the award是被动关系，应使用过去分词形式，位于句首首字母大写。故填Known。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意同上题。空格处引导定语从句，先行词是1921，在从句中作时间状语，因此使用when引导定语从句。故填when。
【39题详解】
考查冠词。句意同第二题。此处表示泛指应使用不定冠词，annual是元音音素开头，用不定冠词an, 故填an。
【40题详解】
考查词形转换。句意：大家都同意了，他们最终决定以18世纪英国出版商John Newbery的名字命名该奖项，他为促进儿童文学做出了巨大的努力。副词作状语修饰动词decided, 故填eventually。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意：获奖图书是由每年都在变化的委员会选出的，而选出获奖者的过程则需要一整年的时间。range from...to...是固定表达，意为“从……到……变化”。故填from。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：获奖图书是由每年都在变化的委员会选出的，而选出获奖者的过程则需要一整年的时间。此处需要填入动名词作介词of的宾语，应使用动名词形式。故填choosing。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意：有时，委员会将指定荣誉图书，这些图书可能没有获得奖项，但仍然被认为是给人留下深刻印象的。分析句子可知be后用形容词作表语。故填impressive。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：你可能会选择一个你喜欢的。读一本书会让你充满热情和创造力。分析句子可知此处需要不定式构成be likely to do为固定表达，意为“可能做某事”。故填to select。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意同上题。分析句子可知，此处与and后的creativity词性一致，用做介词with的宾语，应用名词形式，curiosity “好奇心”是不可数名词。故填curiosity。

Zaib grew up in a single-parent family. Her mother worked in an office as a receptionist but she admitted her only daughter to one of the best schools of the city.
Two days ago, Zaib refused to take her lunch.
“Zaib, Honey! Is everything alright? Why you didn’t take your lunch? Didn’t you feel any hunger? ” Rohana, her mother asked.
“I didn’t like it. A friend of mine was having dairy chocolate. I want these”, Zaib said in an offended mood.
“No problem. We will get these next week, I promise”, she tried to convince her.
“No, I need them today.” she said in an angry manner and rushed towards the room.
Rohana wasn’t having her salary for two months because her company had fallen into crises. Now, she was a bit tense about her daughter’s demand and wondered what to do.
Next day, Zaib didn’t eat anything and rushed to school. The girl with dairy chocolate was none other than her cousin, Saddaf. For the whole day, she was upset, thinking about her mother. She thought her mother didn’t love her deep, and that was why she didn’t meet her demand. When school bell rang, she decided to go to Saddaf’s house.
In Saddaf’s room, they did their homework, and then played. Her aunt Mrs. Saba prepared meal for both of them. “Aunt Saba is much better than Mummy”, she thought. Mrs. Saba told her that her mother had to work till late at night, so she could stay with them that night. She gladly accepted this offer.
Next day, she thought aunt Saba would pack some dairy chocolate in her lunch box, but Mrs. Saba just asked her to take breakfast. Neither did she ask her to bring her lunch box nor did she fill her box with chocolates. Her home was nearby, so she asked aunt Saba to drop her at her home where she might meet her mummy and bring her lunch. Saba aunt ordered her driver to do so. She was astonished to see her mother’s red eyes, and pale face due to heavy work till late at night.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】She met her mother in a rude mood. She asked her mother whether mummy had prepared lunch for her in an annoyed manner. Her mother replied that her lunch box was in the kitchen. Then she went to kitchen to take her lunch box, returned to aunt’s car. Staring at the box on her way to school, she felt very disappointed and upset, because she thought her lunch must be ordinary as usual. She admired her cousin very much and wanted to live in aunt’s house, where she could eat her favourite chocolate.
During lunch time, she opened the box unwillingly. When she opened her lunch box, she saw a heart-shaped chocolate surprisingly. She blushed to admit it, but she bitterly regreted her mood and attitude to her mummy. At that time, she realized even though her mother was suffering economic hardship and her family was short of money, her mother tried her best to offer all the best things to her. She said sorry to her mummy in her mind.
【解析】
【导语】本文以巧克力为线索展开，讲述了成长在单亲家庭的Zaib看到表妹有巧克力吃，所以想要带巧克力的午餐，而妈妈因为两个月没发工资而暂时不能买给她，所以Zaib很生气，去姑姑家住。但姑姑并没给Zaib准备午餐和巧克力，所以Zaib回到家取午餐，发现母亲为她准备了带巧克力的午餐，意识到母亲的爱与辛苦，并为自己感到羞愧。
【详解】1.段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“她见到母亲时很没礼貌。”可知，第一段可描写Zaib回家取午餐盒，及自己对表妹的羡慕。

Raised in a motherless home, my father was extremely tight-fisted（吝啬的）towards us children. His attitude didn't soften as I grew into adulthood and went to college. I had to ride the bus whenever I came home. Though the bus stopped about two miles from home, Dad never met me, even in severe weather. If I grumbled, he'd say in his loudest father-voice, "That's what your legs are for！"
The walk didn't bother me as much as the fear of walking alone along the highway and country roads. I also felt less valued because my father didn't seem concerned about my safety. But that feeling disappeared one spring evening.
It had been a particularly difficult week at college after long hours in labs. I longed for home. When the bus reached the stop, I stepped off the bus and dragged my suitcase to begin the long journey home.
A row of hedges（树篱）edged the driveway that climbed the hill to our house. Once I had turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey, I always had a sense of relief to see the hedge because it meant that I was almost home. On that particular evening, the hedge had just come into view when I saw something gray moving along the top of the hedge, moving toward the house. Upon closer observation, I realized it was the top of my father's head. Then I knew, each time I'd come home, he had stood behind the hedge, watching, until he knew I had arrived safely. I held back my tears. He did care, after all.
On later visits, that spot of gray became my watchtower. I could hardly wait until I was close enough to watch for its secret movement above the greenery. Upon arriving home, I would find my father sitting innocently in his chair. "So! My son, it's you!" he'd say, his face lengthening into pretended surprise.
I replied, "Yes, Dad, it's me. I’m home."
4. What does the underlined word "grumbled" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Accepted happily. B. Spoke unhappily.
C. Agreed willingly. D. Explained clearly.
5. What made the author feel upset?
A. The tiredness after long hours in labs.
B. The difficulty walking on the mountain road.
C. The feeling of being less valued.
D. The fear of riding the bus home.
6. Why did the author's father watch behind the hedge？
A. Because he wanted to help his son build up courage.
B. Because he was concerned about his son's safety.
C. Because he didn't want to meet his son in the doorway.
D. Because he wanted to give his son a surprise.
7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text？
A. Terrible Journey Home B. My College Life
C. My Father's Secret D. Riding Bus Alone
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。作者的父亲对他很严格，以至于作者觉得父亲不爱自己。作者开始时误解了父亲，一次偶然的机会使作者理解了父亲，作者感受到了深深的父爱。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。由第一段“ Though the bus stopped about two miles from home, Dad never met me, even in severe weather. If I grumbled, he'd say in his loudest father-voice, "That's what your legs are for！”可知，尽管巴士在离家两英里的地方会停下来，但爸爸从未接过我，即使是在恶劣的天气里。如果我发牢骚，他会用他最响亮的声音说，“这就是你的腿的作用！”所以通过上下文的语境可以推断出grumble意为“不高兴地说话”。故B选项正确。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段的“ I also felt less valued because my father didn't seem concerned about my safety.”可知，我也觉得自己没那么受重视，因为我父亲似乎并不关心我的安全。所以不受重视使作者感到沮丧。故C选项正确。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。由第四段的"Then I knew, each time I'd come home, he had stood behind the hedge, watching, until he knew I had arrived safely"可知，然后我知道，每次我回家，他都站在树篱后面，看着，直到他知道我已经安全到达。所以父亲每次都在树篱后注视着作者是因为父亲担心作者的安全。故B选项正确。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文的内容可知，作者的父亲对他很严格，以至于作者觉得父亲不爱自己，作者开始时误解了父亲，一次偶然的机会使作者理解了父亲，感受到了深深的父爱。父亲的爱是伟大，父亲表面上冷峻，实际上默默地关注着作者。所以短文的最佳为“父亲的秘密。”故C选项正确。
C
What is a star? We are all pretty familiar with stars. We see them on most clear nights as tiny shining light spots of light in the sky. Stars are the topic of countless poems, stories, and children’s songs. But, exactly, what is a star?
A star is a ball of gas, which gives out light. The gas is mostly made up of H₂ and He, held together by its own gravity. Nuclear fusion(核聚变)reactions in its center part support the star against gravity and produce photons(光子)and heat, as well as small amounts of heavier elements. The Sun is the closest star to Earth.
According to present theory, stars are born as a huge ball within huge gas clouds that fall in suddenly themselves. The cloud’s material heats up as it falls inward under the force of its own gravity. When the gas reaches about 10 million K(18 million℉), H₂ nucleus(原子核)begin to fuse into He nucleus, and the star is born. Energy from nuclear fusion radiates outward from the center of the rapid-growing star, and gradually prevents the gas cloud from falling in.
A star’s color relies on its temperature: hotter stars give out bluer light and cooler stars give out redder light. Temperature is also related to weight. Red dwarf stars have as little as 0.075 solar and the surface temperature is less than 4,000 K. The heaviest star known at present is R136a1, a Wolf-Rayet star 265 of times the Sun—its surface temperature keeps at a red-hot 50,000 K.
The heaviest and hottest stars exhaust their energy within a few million years, while tiny and cool red dwarf stars can keep on burning for many billions of years.

At Bamfield, a coastal community in British Columbia, Canada, 84-year-old Louis Druchl is guiding The Kelp Express along the shore. For 51 years, the boat has taken him to Kelp Bay. There, ropes of seaweed are growing beneath the water’s surface. Seaweed is Druehl’s life. He has studied it, farmed it, cooked it, and written a book about it. Over the years, Druehl has seen interest in seaweed rise and fall. But as climate change affects the planet, the world is turning to seaweed as a possible way to solve that. “People have discovered seaweed,” he said. “They’ve discovered us.”
People think of forests as the best protection against climate change. But some researchers say seaweed is a better way. Unlike trees, seaweed doesn’t need fertilizers or fresh water. It grows faster than trees do and doesn’t require any land. It helps balance ocean ecosystems. And it absorbs carbon from the environment.
Seaweed could also become a key global food source. Many worry about the environmental influence of eating meat. Could seaweed farms provide enough protein for the world? Carlos Duarte, a professor of marine ecology, thinks so. “When you look at how we are going to feed the world population by 2050, in a way that doesn’t harm the environment, there is only one pathway,” he says. “Seaweed farming.” In the past ten years or so, global seaweed production has doubled. In British Columbia, there’s a long line of seaweed farmers waiting to learn from Louis Druehl.
Seaweed might fight climate change. But it isn’t without its risks. If it isn’t harvested, it can rot(腐烂)and put carbon back into the air or water. Growing too much of it could also affect the amount of light that reaches species living deeper in the water. That would be dangerous for underwater ecosystems. Halley Froehlich is an assistant professor at the University of California. She says “seaweed can be a part of the solution to climate change, but it’s not a perfect solution on its own”.
12. How does Louis Druehl feel about his lifestyle?
A. He would rather work as a writer. B. He loves what he does for a living.
C. He finds planting seaweed very tiring. D. He thinks life at sea keeps him healthy.
13. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The problems forests can solve. B. How seaweed is different from trees.
C. Why seaweed can fight climate change. D. The places that are fit for seaweed farming.
14. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. Seaweed doesn’t need much care. B. Seaweed doesn’t have enough protein.
C. British Columbia’s population is increasing. D. Interest in seaweed as a food source is growing.
15. Why does the author mention Halley Froehlich’s words?
A. To prove climate change is the result of human activities.
B. To suggest new types of seaweed are being developed.
C. To show seaweed farming needs proper management.
D. To question the role of seaweed in climate change.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了海藻可以对抗气候变化，同时也可能成为关键的全球食物来源，但其中也存在风险。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Seaweed is Druehl’s life. He has studied it, farmed it, cooked it, and written a book about it. Over the years, Druehl has seen interest in seaweed rise and fall. But as climate change affects the planet, the world is turning to seaweed as a possible way to solve that.(海藻是德鲁尔的生命。他研究它，种植它，烹饪它，并写了一本关于它的书。多年来，德鲁尔看到了对海藻的兴趣的上升和下降。但随着气候变化对地球的影响，世界正在转向海藻作为解决这一问题的可能方法)”可知，路易·德鲁尔热爱他赖以为生的工作。故选B。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“People think of forests as the best protection against climate change. But some researchers say seaweed is a better way. Unlike trees, seaweed doesn’t need fertilizers or fresh water. It grows faster than trees do and doesn’t require any land. It helps balance ocean ecosystems. And it absorbs carbon from the environment.(人们认为森林是抵御气候变化的最佳保护措施。但一些研究人员表示，海藻是一种更好的方法。与树木不同，海藻不需要化肥或淡水。它比树木长得快，而且不需要任何土地。它有助于平衡海洋生态系统。它从环境中吸收碳)”可知，第二段主要讲的是为什么海藻可以对抗气候变化。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Seaweed could also become a key global food source.(海藻也可能成为关键的全球食物来源)”以及“In the past ten years or so, global seaweed production has doubled. In British Columbia, there’s a long line of seaweed farmers waiting to learn from Louis Druehl.(在过去十年左右的时间里，全球海藻产量翻了一番。在不列颠哥伦比亚省，有一大群海藻养殖户等着向路易斯·德鲁尔学习)”可知，对海藻作为食物来源的兴趣正在增长。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Growing too much of it could also affect the amount of light that reaches species living deeper in the water. That would be dangerous for underwater ecosystems. Halley Froehlich is an assistant professor at the University of California. She says seaweed “can be a part of the solution to climate change, but it’s not a perfect solution on its own”.(过多的生长也会影响到达生活在深海的物种的光量。这对水下生态系统来说是危险的。Halley Froehlich是加州大学的一名助理教授。她说，“海藻可以成为气候变化解决方案的一部分，但它本身并不是一个完美的解决方案”)”可知，作者提到Halley Froehlich的话是为了说明海藻养殖需要适当的管理。故选C。

考查非谓语动词。句意：获奖图书是由每年都在变化的委员会选出的，而选出获奖者的过程则需要一整年的时间。此处需要填入动名词作介词of的宾语，应使用动名词形式。故填choosing。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意：有时，委员会将指定荣誉图书，这些图书可能没有获得奖项，但仍然被认为是给人留下深刻印象的。分析句子可知be后用形容词作表语。故填impressive。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：你可能会选择一个你喜欢的。读一本书会让你充满热情和创造力。分析句子可知此处需要不定式构成be likely to do为固定表达，意为“可能做某事”。故填to select。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意同上题。分析句子可知，此处与and后的creativity词性一致，用做介词with的宾语，应用名词形式，curiosity “好奇心”是不可数名词。故填curiosity。

Two days ago, Zaib refused to take her lunch.
“Zaib, Honey! Is everything alright? Why you didn’t take your lunch? Didn’t you feel any hunger? ” Rohana, her mother asked.
“I didn’t like it. A friend of mine was having dairy chocolate. I want these”, Zaib said in an offended mood.
“No problem. We will get these next week, I promise”, she tried to convince her.
“No, I need them today.” she said in an angry manner and rushed towards the room.
Rohana wasn’t having her salary for two months because her company had fallen into crises. Now, she was a bit tense about her daughter’s demand and wondered what to do.
Next day, Zaib didn’t eat anything and rushed to school. The girl with dairy chocolate was none other than her cousin, Saddaf. For the whole day, she was upset, thinking about her mother. She thought her mother didn’t love her deep, and that was why she didn’t meet her demand. When school bell rang, she decided to go to Saddaf’s house.
In Saddaf’s room, they did their homework, and then played. Her aunt Mrs. Saba prepared meal for both of them. “Aunt Saba is much better than Mummy”, she thought. Mrs. Saba told her that her mother had to work till late at night, so she could stay with them that night. She gladly accepted this offer.
Next day, she thought aunt Saba would pack some dairy chocolate in her lunch box, but Mrs. Saba just asked her to take breakfast. Neither did she ask her to bring her lunch box nor did she fill her box with chocolates. Her home was nearby, so she asked aunt Saba to drop her at her home where she might meet her mummy and bring her lunch. Saba aunt ordered her driver to do so. She was astonished to see her mother’s red eyes, and pale face due to heavy work till late at night.

【答案】She met her mother in a rude mood. She asked her mother whether mummy had prepared lunch for her in an annoyed manner. Her mother replied that her lunch box was in the kitchen. Then she went to kitchen to take her lunch box, returned to aunt’s car. Staring at the box on her way to school, she felt very disappointed and upset, because she thought her lunch must be ordinary as usual. She admired her cousin very much and wanted to live in aunt’s house, where she could eat her favourite chocolate.
During lunch time, she opened the box unwillingly. When she opened her lunch box, she saw a heart-shaped chocolate surprisingly. She blushed to admit it, but she bitterly regreted her mood and attitude to her mummy. At that time, she realized even though her mother was suffering economic hardship and her family was short of money, her mother tried her best to offer all the best things to her. She said sorry to her mummy in her mind.
【解析】
【导语】本文以巧克力为线索展开，讲述了成长在单亲家庭的Zaib看到表妹有巧克力吃，所以想要带巧克力的午餐，而妈妈因为两个月没发工资而暂时不能买给她，所以Zaib很生气，去姑姑家住。但姑姑并没给Zaib准备午餐和巧克力，所以Zaib回到家取午餐，发现母亲为她准备了带巧克力的午餐，意识到母亲的爱与辛苦，并为自己感到羞愧。
【详解】1.段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“她见到母亲时很没礼貌。”可知，第一段可描写Zaib回家取午餐盒，及自己对表妹的羡慕。
