八、阅读单选
Back home, almost everyone gets time off at Christmas. This year I asked my Chinese boss how many days I could get off in December. “I am afraid none. We don’t do Christmas,” she answered.
I was very sad at the thought of not seeing my family. However, I took my boss’ words as a challenge. I would make Christmas in China.
First step—Christmas food. In the UK, we always eat mince pies(肉馅饼) during Advent(the December of days before Christmas). They are like little apple pies with spice(香料) and brandy(白兰地酒). According to tradition, the number of mince pies you eat during Advent has to do with the number of months of good luck you will have next year. So I needed to get at least 12 before December 25.
Sadly, I didn’t find key mince pie ingredients in China. I wouldn’t give up. I put five Chinese spices into my own “mincemeat”. Then, I made my little pies in the shape of baozi and jiaozi. Delicious.
Next step—Christmas cards. I was very glad to find many shining cards with Chinglish(中式英文) greetings in my local supermarket. My favourite read : “Let’s merry!” “Merry” is not a verb. The Chinese often hear “Merry Christmas”, so they wrote the sentence. For me, it’s an interesting joke.
I call my Chinese Christmas “Chingmas”. I had a party with “Chingmas pudding” and “baijiu butter”. I even had some Chingmas carols. The song God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen became God Rest You Merry, Tian’anmen.
34．The writer got ________off in December.
A．a week B．ten days C．none D．three days
35．In the UK, the traditional food on the December days before Christmas is ________.
A．mince pies B．apple pies C．spice D．brandy
36．The writer need to get at least 12 mince pies because she ________.
A．loved eating mince pies very much B．wanted to be lucky every month next year
C．wanted to send some mince pies to her family D．wanted to prepare food for a Christmas party
37．The writer ________ when she didn’t find key mince pie ingredients in China.
A．gave up making mince pies, and made some baozi and jiaozi
B．used Chinese spices and made little pies in the shape of baozi and jiaozi
C．gave up on making any Christmas food and bought some delicious Chinese food
D．bought some traditional Christmas food from the supermarket
38．The underlined word “merry”probably means ________.
A．marry B．play C．work D．be happy
39．What is the passage mainly about?
A．The difference between Christmas and Chingmas. B．The reasons why the writer likes Christmas so much.
C．The writer’s experience of having Christmas in China. D．The way people celebrate Christmas in the UK.

Time to “Learn” Math
WHY DO SO MANY STUDENTS hate or fear math?
In my opinion, this has something to do with students’ role in Math classes. Students rarely think they are in the classroom to ____40____ the beauty of math. Instead, they think they are there to perform. From an early age, students realize math is different from other subjects. In many schools, math is more about answering questions than it is about ____41____.
Educators (教育学家) know how to improve the situation. In perfect math-learning environments, students work on difficult but interesting problems. They try a new idea, ____42____ and then try another new idea. They receive positive messages about their unlimited potential.

These students perform at higher levels in math and in life. ____43____, most students today don’t get the chance to see math as a “growth subject”. They have to work on closed questions. There is no room for failure. Many students finally say to themselves, “I’m not a math person”.
Furthermore, math looks more like a speed race than any other subject. Teachers usually take ____44____ from the first student who raises his or her hand. Math tests are timed. No wonder students who think slowly and deeply often hate or fear math.
Schools should encourage teachers to open up math. In this way, math becomes a learning subject, instead of a performance subject. Teachers should ask questions that have many ____45____ instead of closed questions. They should give students the chance to discuss different ideas. They should also encourage students to ask questions that have never been asked.
When teachers set students free, the beauty of math follows. More children will fall in love with this subject.

A Nation of Poetry

There are a____47____ businesspeople, zookeepers and scientists, among others, who share a love for poems. Kari Stefansson is a world-famous biologist. He talked about a poem he wrote a few months after the birth of Dolly the cloned（克隆的）sheep. “I f____48____ a little bit sad,” said Stefansson. “One of my ways to deal with that is to write a small poem.” He went on to recite the poem: “Where do I find, lost in the brightness of a sunny day, / The happiness of an unhappy man; / Fortunate only to be one copy of himself. / Everything else is terrible.”

十一、阅读回答问题(共0分
Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）
Almost every woman likes going shopping. Personally speaking, I enjoy shopping in the U.K., even if it’s just window shopping. The sales service is the key reason why I like shopping in the U.K. much more than shopping in China.
Every brand has its own official website where customers can see products and order directly online, so the products can be sent home directly. As for those who enjoy shopping in real stores, shopping experiences are rather free and open. Different from that in China, most stores do not provide personal shop assistants unless you ask one of the staff about a specific question. It is never necessary to tell them to leave you alone. Although sometimes, store staff help customers to fetch shoes or clothes of a specific size or color, they never exaggerate(夸大)their opinions on it, as their task is to provide service but not to provide comments.
Besides, each brand has a refund policy(退款政策). The policy may be different from one another, but a cooling-off period of 14 to 28 days is provided for customers to think twice about whether they really want the products they bought. Within the cooling-off period, customers can easily get full refund or exchange if they can provide a valid receipt(有效发票)and unused products with all the tags. It encourages customers to buy products more often and increases sales. As for customers, it is also good, for people can have a chance to get back their money which was spent on unwanted clothes.
The U.K. is a modern country with traditions. While it says yes to the fast pace of modern fashion industry, it also provides 80 for its tourists and customer. It fully deserves the title of “Shopping Paradise”.
53．What is the most important reason why the writer likes shopping in the U.K.?
________________________________________________
54．In the writer’s opinion, why are shopping experiences free and open in the U.K.?
________________________________________________
55．What does the underlined word “them” refer to?
It refers to ______________________________.
56．Do store staff usually help customers fetch things or give comments in the U.K.?
________________________________________________
57．How can customers get a full refund or exchange?
________________________________________________
58．What can be filled in the blank in the last paragraph?
It also provides ___________________ for its tourists and customers.

参考答案：
1．C
【详解】句意：下列哪一个画线部分的发音与其他部分不同？
考查语音。physical的发音是[ˈfɪzɪkl]；similar的发音是[ˈsɪmələ(r)]；divide的发音是[dɪˈvaɪd]；figure的发音是[ˈfɪɡə(r)]。由此可知A、B、D选项中画线部分i发音是[ɪ]，而C选项中画线部分i发音是[aɪ]。故选C。
2．A
【详解】句意：看！那边的女士是一位大学老师。
考查冠词。a一个，不定冠词，用在辅音音素前；an一个，不定冠词，用在元音音素前；the表特指；根据所给空后面的European boy可知是泛指，应该用不定冠词，排除C和D，European是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用a，排除B。故选A。
3．D
【详解】句意：汤姆太淘气了，竟把玩具枪对准了他哥哥。
考查介词辨析。to到；on在……上；into到……里面；at朝。根据“aimed his toy gun … his brother.”可知，此处用aim sth at sb表示“把某物瞄准某人”，故选D。
4．D
【详解】句意：当你做一些有趣的事情时，你可能会觉得时间过得很快。
考查复合不定代词。everything一切；anything任何事；nothing没什么事；something某事。根据“You may feel that time goes by very quickly when you do… interesting”可知，做一些有趣的事情才会觉得时间过得很快，肯定句用something，故选D。
5．B
【详解】句意：即使我们班的尖子生也解不出这道题，所以这道题一定很难。
考查情态动词辨析。may可能；must一定；can能够；need需要。根据“Even the top students in our class can’t work out this problem”可知，连尖子生都解不出的题一定很难，故选B。
6．A
【详解】句意：许多游客已经去过扬州很多次了，因为它是一个如此美丽的城市。
考查现在完成时。根据“many times”可知，此处应使用现在完成时，排除BC。have been to强调去过已回；have gone to强调去了未回。此处表示“去过很多次”。故选A。
7．A
【详解】句意：大雾天气使所有的旅客在机场过夜。
A. 呆，停留，是动词原形；B. 是现在分词结构；C. 是不定式结构；D. 是过去分词结构；根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是使某人做某事，make在这里是使役动词，英语中使役动词的用法是make sb do sth，后面要接动词原形，所以这里填A。
8．C
【详解】句意：西蒙对美国文化感兴趣。明年他将在普林斯顿大学学习英语。
考查一般将来时。根据“next year”可知，时态是一般将来时，故选C。

考查连词辨析。because因为；as由于；although尽管；while当……时。“Our monitor is always the first one to come to school”与“he lives far from school”是让步关系，故用although引导让步状语从句，故选C。
10．C
【详解】考查形容词和副词的用法。句意：这个音乐听起来很可怕，你最好把收音机关掉。A. well 副词，好地 ； B. loudly 副词，大声地； C. terrible 形容词，可怕的 D. Gently副词，轻柔的，缓慢的。根据You’d better turn the radio off.你最好把收音机关掉可知，这个音乐不好听，又根据sound是系动词，系动词后接形容词，A/B/D都是副词，只有C是形容词，故选C
点睛：形容词的用法，1.形容词可以修饰名词作定语，例如：a tall boy，2.形容词放在系动词的后面做表语，例如：I feel happy.副词的用法，1.副词修饰动词，例如：run fast;2.副词修饰形容词，例如：very happy 3.副词修饰其他的副词 ，例如：very fast 4.副词还可以修饰整个句子。

考查形容词最高级。one of+the+形容词最高级+复数名词，表示“最……之一”，故选D。
12．D
【详解】句意：——你要多久才能完成这个项目？——两周后，我认为。
考查疑问词组。How far“多远”，对距离提问；How often“多久一次”，对频率提问；How long“多长”，对时间或物体长度提问；How soon“多久以后”，常与将来时连用。答句中的“In two weeks”意为“两周后”，用于将来时。根据答句可知，此处应该用how soon提问。故选D。
13．A
【详解】句意：凯特上学从不迟到，是吗？
考查反意疑问句。根据“Kate’s never late for”可知，此句的时态为一般现在时，be late for“迟到”，前一句有never为否定句，反义疑问句遵循“前肯后否，前否后肯”的规则，所以be动词放在开头，构成is she，故选A。
14．D
【详解】句意：爬山是一件多么让人兴奋的运动。考查感叹句。英语感叹句使用how和what引导，how后面的中心词是形容词或副词，what后面的中心词是名词。具体构成：1. What+a/an+形容词+单数可数名词+(主语+谓语)！ 2. What+形容词+可数名词复数或不可数名词+(主语+谓语)！3.how用来修饰形容词、副词或动词+(主语+谓语)！本句中心词sport为单数可数名词，exciting为元音音素开头发音的单词，可知填what an；故选D。
15．D
【详解】句意：——你愿意我给你拿杯咖啡来吗？——是的，我愿意。
本题考查情景交际。A. Yes, please是的，请；B. It is a pleasure这是很高兴的事；C. It doesn’t matter没关系；D. Yes, I’d like to是的，我愿意。Would you like...?你（们）想要…吗？表示向对方提出客气的、有礼貌的请求、邀请、希望或询问等。它的肯定回答多用Yes, please./Yes, I'd (We'd) like (love) to./Certainly./Yes, thank you.等；否定回答常用No, thanks./No, thank you.等。故选D。
16．D 17．F 18．E 19．A 20．C
【分析】本文通过讲述大象鼻子上的绳子来告诉我们：面对失败，不要放弃，要坚持斗争。当作者在村里看到大象鼻子上系着一根细绳，大象却不会挣脱，他感到惊讶。驯象师告诉他这是因为大象在很小的时候，因为挣脱不了这个绳子，他长大了仍然以为挣脱不了，所以就放弃努力了。这告诉我们，失败是生活中的一部分，应该不要放弃努力。
16．句意：他发现这些巨大的大象只被拴在前腿上的一根小绳子牵着。
根据空后“that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope (绳索) tied to their front leg. 这些巨大的大象只被拴在前腿上的一根小绳子牵着。”可知是发现这样的一个现象，结合所给单词，found符合句意。故选D。
17．句意：很明显，大象在任何时候都可以挣脱绳索，但因为某种原因，它们没有。
根据空前“the elephants could, at any time, break away from their ropes大象在任何时候都可以挣脱绳索”，及后面“they did not它们没有”，可知在这儿for是因为的意思，“因为某种原因”符合语境。故选F。
18．句意：当大象长大了，他们仍然认为他们不能挣脱绳子。
根据空前“at that age, it’s enough to hold them.在那么大时，绳子足以能栓住他们。”可知这儿as意为当……时，结合所给单词，“as they grow up当它们长大时”符合语境。故选E。
19．句意：但因为他们总是呆在原地，他们相信他们做不到（挣脱绳子）。
根据空前“because they always stuck right where they were因为他们总是呆在原地”，可知后面是结果，“they couldn’t它们不能” ，结合所给单词，“他们相信他们不能做到”符合句意。故选A。
20．句意：我们不应该放弃在生活中奋斗。
根据前面“Failing is part of learning. 失败是学习的一部分。”，可知后面是鼓励人们别怕失败，要去奋斗，所以“我们不应该放弃在生活中奋斗。”选用“never”符合语境和句意。故选C。
【点睛】本题为人生感悟类阅读，总体理解起来难度较大，题目涉及到动词，副词和名词，做题时结合原文有针对性的找出前后语句进行分析，结合单词选项选出正确答案。有难度的单词要在理解全文整体内容的基础上作答，要整体把握文章主旨，不要以偏概全，要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理分析得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，盲目作答。

23．argument
【详解】句意：他和老板就男女同工同酬的问题吵了一架。an修饰名词的单数形式，argue是动词，名词是argument“争吵”，have an argument with sb“与某人争吵”，故填argument。
24．powerful
【详解】句意：孙杨是一名强壮的游泳运动员，胳膊和腿都很强壮。这次比赛他一定能赢。此处作定语修饰“swimmer”，用形容词形式。故填powerful。
25．ours
【详解】句意：你们的教室在一楼，我们的在顶楼。此处指“我们的教室”，空格后无名词，用名词性物主代词ours表示“our classroom”，故填ours。
26．favour/favor
【详解】句意：这个箱子太重了，我自己搬不动。你能帮我个忙吗？根据“Could you do me a...?”可知，此处是“do me a favour/favor”短语，意为“帮帮忙”，故填favour/favor。
27．widely
【详解】句意：音乐剧《Cat》至今仍在世界各地广泛演出。此空修饰动词performed，要用副词，wide是形容词，其对应的副词是widely“广泛地”，故填widely。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了诗歌之国——冰岛人们对诗歌的热爱。
46．句意：当他们不在工作岗位时，岛上34万公民中的许多人都会尝试写诗。根据上文“Iceland, it seems, is full of hidden poets.”可知，似乎冰岛上充满了隐藏的诗人，说明人们闲时会尝试写诗。“诗歌”是名词poem，首字母为p，此处应用其复数形式poems。故填(p)oems。

八、阅读单选
Back home, almost everyone gets time off at Christmas. This year I asked my Chinese boss how many days I could get off in December. “I am afraid none. We don’t do Christmas,” she answered.
I was very sad at the thought of not seeing my family. However, I took my boss’ words as a challenge. I would make Christmas in China.
First step—Christmas food. In the UK, we always eat mince pies(肉馅饼) during Advent(the December of days before Christmas). They are like little apple pies with spice(香料) and brandy(白兰地酒). According to tradition, the number of mince pies you eat during Advent has to do with the number of months of good luck you will have next year. So I needed to get at least 12 before December 25.
Sadly, I didn’t find key mince pie ingredients in China. I wouldn’t give up. I put five Chinese spices into my own “mincemeat”. Then, I made my little pies in the shape of baozi and jiaozi. Delicious.
Next step—Christmas cards. I was very glad to find many shining cards with Chinglish(中式英文) greetings in my local supermarket. My favourite read : “Let’s merry!” “Merry” is not a verb. The Chinese often hear “Merry Christmas”, so they wrote the sentence. For me, it’s an interesting joke.
I call my Chinese Christmas “Chingmas”. I had a party with “Chingmas pudding” and “baijiu butter”. I even had some Chingmas carols. The song God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen became God Rest You Merry, Tian’anmen.
34．The writer got ________off in December.
A．a week B．ten days C．none D．three days
35．In the UK, the traditional food on the December days before Christmas is ________.
A．mince pies B．apple pies C．spice D．brandy
36．The writer need to get at least 12 mince pies because she ________.
A．loved eating mince pies very much B．wanted to be lucky every month next year
C．wanted to send some mince pies to her family D．wanted to prepare food for a Christmas party
37．The writer ________ when she didn’t find key mince pie ingredients in China.
A．gave up making mince pies, and made some baozi and jiaozi
B．used Chinese spices and made little pies in the shape of baozi and jiaozi
C．gave up on making any Christmas food and bought some delicious Chinese food
D．bought some traditional Christmas food from the supermarket
38．The underlined word “merry”probably means ________.
A．marry B．play C．work D．be happy
39．What is the passage mainly about?
A．The difference between Christmas and Chingmas. B．The reasons why the writer likes Christmas so much.
C．The writer’s experience of having Christmas in China. D．The way people celebrate Christmas in the UK.

Time to “Learn” Math
WHY DO SO MANY STUDENTS hate or fear math?
In my opinion, this has something to do with students’ role in Math classes. Students rarely think they are in the classroom to ____40____ the beauty of math. Instead, they think they are there to perform. From an early age, students realize math is different from other subjects. In many schools, math is more about answering questions than it is about ____41____.
Educators (教育学家) know how to improve the situation. In perfect math-learning environments, students work on difficult but interesting problems. They try a new idea, ____42____ and then try another new idea. They receive positive messages about their unlimited potential. Students with a “growth” mindset (观念模式) believe their ability is not “fixed”. They know failure is a natural part of learning. These students perform at higher levels in math and in life. ____43____, most students today don’t get the chance to see math as a “growth subject”. They have to work on closed questions. There is no room for failure. Many students finally say to themselves, “I’m not a math person”.
Furthermore, math looks more like a speed race than any other subject. Teachers usually take ____44____ from the first student who raises his or her hand. Math tests are timed. No wonder students who think slowly and deeply often hate or fear math.
Schools should encourage teachers to open up math. In this way, math becomes a learning subject, instead of a performance subject. Teachers should ask questions that have many ____45____ instead of closed questions. They should give students the chance to discuss different ideas. They should also encourage students to ask questions that have never been asked.
When teachers set students free, the beauty of math follows. More children will fall in love with this subject.

There are a____47____ businesspeople, zookeepers and scientists, among others, who share a love for poems. Kari Stefansson is a world-famous biologist.

十一、阅读回答问题(共0分
Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）
Almost every woman likes going shopping. Personally speaking, I enjoy shopping in the U.K., even if it’s just window shopping. The sales service is the key reason why I like shopping in the U.K. much more than shopping in China.
Every brand has its own official website where customers can see products and order directly online, so the products can be sent home directly. As for those who enjoy shopping in real stores, shopping experiences are rather free and open. Different from that in China, most stores do not provide personal shop assistants unless you ask one of the staff about a specific question. It is never necessary to tell them to leave you alone. Although sometimes, store staff help customers to fetch shoes or clothes of a specific size or color, they never exaggerate(夸大)their opinions on it, as their task is to provide service but not to provide comments.
Besides, each brand has a refund policy(退款政策). The policy may be different from one another, but a cooling-off period of 14 to 28 days is provided for customers to think twice about whether they really want the products they bought. Within the cooling-off period, customers can easily get full refund or exchange if they can provide a valid receipt(有效发票)and unused products with all the tags. It encourages customers to buy products more often and increases sales. As for customers, it is also good, for people can have a chance to get back their money which was spent on unwanted clothes.
The U.K. is a modern country with traditions. While it says yes to the fast pace of modern fashion industry, it also provides 80 for its tourists and customer. It fully deserves the title of “Shopping Paradise”.
53．What is the most important reason why the writer likes shopping in the U.K.?
________________________________________________
54．In the writer’s opinion, why are shopping experiences free and open in the U.K.?
________________________________________________
55．What does the underlined word “them” refer to?
It refers to ______________________________.
56．Do store staff usually help customers fetch things or give comments in the U.K.?

57．How can customers get a full refund or exchange?

58．What can be filled in the blank in the last paragraph?
It also provides ___________________ for its tourists and customers.

参考答案：
1．C
【详解】句意：下列哪一个画线部分的发音与其他部分不同？
考查语音。physical的发音是[ˈfɪzɪkl]；similar的发音是[ˈsɪmələ(r)]；divide的发音是[dɪˈvaɪd]；figure的发音是[ˈfɪɡə(r)]。由此可知A、B、D选项中画线部分i发音是[ɪ]，而C选项中画线部分i发音是[aɪ]。故选C。
2．A
【详解】句意：看！那边的女士是一位大学老师。
考查冠词。a一个，不定冠词，用在辅音音素前；an一个，不定冠词，用在元音音素前；the表特指；根据所给空后面的European boy可知是泛指，应该用不定冠词，排除C和D，European是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用a，排除B。故选A。
3．D
【详解】句意：汤姆太淘气了，竟把玩具枪对准了他哥哥。
考查介词辨析。to到；on在……上；into到……里面；at朝。根据“aimed his toy gun … his brother.”可知，此处用aim sth at sb表示“把某物瞄准某人”，故选D。
4．D
【详解】句意：当你做一些有趣的事情时，你可能会觉得时间过得很快。
考查复合不定代词。everything一切；anything任何事；nothing没什么事；something某事。根据“You may feel that time goes by very quickly when you do… interesting”可知，做一些有趣的事情才会觉得时间过得很快，肯定句用something，故选D。
5．B
【详解】句意：即使我们班的尖子生也解不出这道题，所以这道题一定很难。
考查情态动词辨析。may可能；must一定；can能够；need需要。根据“Even the top students in our class can’t work out this problem”可知，连尖子生都解不出的题一定很难，故选B。
6．A
【详解】句意：许多游客已经去过扬州很多次了，因为它是一个如此美丽的城市。
考查现在完成时。根据“many times”可知，此处应使用现在完成时，排除BC。have been to强调去过已回；have gone to强调去了未回。此处表示“去过很多次”。故选A。
7．A
【详解】句意：大雾天气使所有的旅客在机场过夜。
A. 呆，停留，是动词原形；B. 是现在分词结构；C. 是不定式结构；D. 是过去分词结构；根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是使某人做某事，make在这里是使役动词，英语中使役动词的用法是make sb do sth，后面要接动词原形，所以这里填A。
8．C
【详解】句意：西蒙对美国文化感兴趣。明年他将在普林斯顿大学学习英语。
考查一般将来时。根据“next year”可知，时态是一般将来时，故选C。

10．C
【详解】考查形容词和副词的用法。句意：这个音乐听起来很可怕，你最好把收音机关掉。A. well 副词，好地 ； B. loudly 副词，大声地； C. terrible 形容词，可怕的 D. Gently副词，轻柔的，缓慢的。根据You’d better turn the radio off.你最好把收音机关掉可知，这个音乐不好听，又根据sound是系动词，系动词后接形容词，A/B/D都是副词，只有C是形容词，故选C
点睛：形容词的用法，1.形容词可以修饰名词作定语，例如：a tall boy，2.形容词放在系动词的后面做表语，例如：I feel happy.副词的用法，1.副词修饰动词，例如：run fast;2.副词修饰形容词，例如：very happy 3.副词修饰其他的副词 ，例如：very fast 4.副词还可以修饰整个句子。

考查疑问词组。How far“多远”，对距离提问；How often“多久一次”，对频率提问；How long“多长”，对时间或物体长度提问；How soon“多久以后”，常与将来时连用。答句中的“In two weeks”意为“两周后”，用于将来时。根据答句可知，此处应该用how soon提问。故选D。
13．A
【详解】句意：凯特上学从不迟到，是吗？
考查反意疑问句。根据“Kate’s never late for”可知，此句的时态为一般现在时，be late for“迟到”，前一句有never为否定句，反义疑问句遵循“前肯后否，前否后肯”的规则，所以be动词放在开头，构成is she，故选A。
14．D
【详解】句意：爬山是一件多么让人兴奋的运动。考查感叹句。英语感叹句使用how和what引导，how后面的中心词是形容词或副词，what后面的中心词是名词。具体构成：1. What+a/an+形容词+单数可数名词+(主语+谓语)！ 2. What+形容词+可数名词复数或不可数名词+(主语+谓语)！3.how用来修饰形容词、副词或动词+(主语+谓语)！本句中心词sport为单数可数名词，exciting为元音音素开头发音的单词，可知填what an；故选D。
15．D
【详解】句意：——你愿意我给你拿杯咖啡来吗？——是的，我愿意。
本题考查情景交际。A. Yes, please是的，请；B. It is a pleasure这是很高兴的事；C. It doesn’t matter没关系；D. Yes, I’d like to是的，我愿意。Would you like...?你（们）想要…吗？表示向对方提出客气的、有礼貌的请求、邀请、希望或询问等。它的肯定回答多用Yes, please./Yes, I'd (We'd) like (love) to./Certainly./Yes, thank you.等；否定回答常用No, thanks./No, thank you.等。故选D。
16．D 17．F 18．E 19．A 20．C
【分析】本文通过讲述大象鼻子上的绳子来告诉我们：面对失败，不要放弃，要坚持斗争。当作者在村里看到大象鼻子上系着一根细绳，大象却不会挣脱，他感到惊讶。驯象师告诉他这是因为大象在很小的时候，因为挣脱不了这个绳子，他长大了仍然以为挣脱不了，所以就放弃努力了。这告诉我们，失败是生活中的一部分，应该不要放弃努力。
16．句意：他发现这些巨大的大象只被拴在前腿上的一根小绳子牵着。
根据空后“that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope (绳索) tied to their front leg. 这些巨大的大象只被拴在前腿上的一根小绳子牵着。”可知是发现这样的一个现象，结合所给单词，found符合句意。故选D。
17．句意：很明显，大象在任何时候都可以挣脱绳索，但因为某种原因，它们没有。
根据空前“the elephants could, at any time, break away from their ropes大象在任何时候都可以挣脱绳索”，及后面“they did not它们没有”，可知在这儿for是因为的意思，“因为某种原因”符合语境。故选F。
18．句意：当大象长大了，他们仍然认为他们不能挣脱绳子。
根据空前“at that age, it’s enough to hold them.在那么大时，绳子足以能栓住他们。”可知这儿as意为当……时，结合所给单词，“as they grow up当它们长大时”符合语境。故选E。
19．句意：但因为他们总是呆在原地，他们相信他们做不到（挣脱绳子）。
根据空前“because they always stuck right where they were因为他们总是呆在原地”，可知后面是结果，“they couldn’t它们不能” ，结合所给单词，“他们相信他们不能做到”符合句意。故选A。
20．句意：我们不应该放弃在生活中奋斗。
根据前面“Failing is part of learning. 失败是学习的一部分。”，可知后面是鼓励人们别怕失败，要去奋斗，所以“我们不应该放弃在生活中奋斗。”选用“never”符合语境和句意。故选C。
【点睛】本题为人生感悟类阅读，总体理解起来难度较大，题目涉及到动词，副词和名词，做题时结合原文有针对性的找出前后语句进行分析，结合单词选项选出正确答案。有难度的单词要在理解全文整体内容的基础上作答，要整体把握文章主旨，不要以偏概全，要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理分析得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，盲目作答。
21．fortieth
【详解】句意：今年是中国改革开放40周年。此处表示“第四十周年”，用序数词表顺序，故填fortieth。
22．torches
【详解】句意：营员们用营火点燃火把，以便看清一切。根据“The campers lit...from the campfire”可知，此处表示复数含义，使用名词复数形式，故填torches。
23．argument
【详解】句意：他和老板就男女同工同酬的问题吵了一架。an修饰名词的单数形式，argue是动词，名词是argument“争吵”，have an argument with sb“与某人争吵”，故填argument。
24．powerful
【详解】句意：孙杨是一名强壮的游泳运动员，胳膊和腿都很强壮。这次比赛他一定能赢。此处作定语修饰“swimmer”，用形容词形式。故填powerful。
25．ours
【详解】句意：你们的教室在一楼，我们的在顶楼。此处指“我们的教室”，空格后无名词，用名词性物主代词ours表示“our classroom”，故填ours。
26．favour/favor
【详解】句意：这个箱子太重了，我自己搬不动。你能帮我个忙吗？根据“Could you do me a...?”可知，此处是“do me a favour/favor”短语，意为“帮帮忙”，故填favour/favor。
