从 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
1. Fifteen competitors started the race last year, only three of managed to finish.
A. which B. whom C. who D. that
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意：去年有15名选手开始比赛，其中只有3人完成了比赛。这是个定语从句，先行词competitors是人，空格处用“介词+whom/which”引导的非限制性定语从句，因此空格处用whom，故选B。
2. It was just about midnight we parked under the streetlight in front of the empty house.
A. when B. that C. which D. while
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意：快半夜时，我们把车停在空房子前面的路灯下。分析句子可知，it指代时间，空处引导定语从句，先行词about midnight，从句中作时间状语，用关系副词when引导定语从句，故选A。
3. The Olympic flame, in a beautifully lantern, was being protected by Chinese guards.
A. decorating B. being decorated C. decorated D. having been decorated
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：奥运圣火被装在一个装饰华丽的灯笼里面，由中国卫兵保护着。分析句子可知，空处作修饰lantern的定语，副词beautifully修饰该定语，decorate“装饰”和lantern逻辑上是被动关系，因此应用decorate的过去分词形式decorated。故选C。
4. A series of measures to help promote economic development lately.
A. are adopted B. has adopted C. will adopt D. have been adopted
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查动词时态语态。句意：最近采取了一系列促进经济发展的措施。由时间状语lately“最近”可知，用现在完成时，主语measures与adopt是被动关系，用被动语态，且主语是复数，故选D。

5. what happened, he never lost the will to live.
A. In spite of B. Even though C. With regard to D. As if
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查固定短语辨析。句意：不管发生了什么事，他从未失去活下去的意志。A. In spite of不管；B. Even though虽然；C. With regard to关于；D. As if好像。由“what happened, he never lost the will to live”可知，句子表示“不管发生了什么事，他从未失去活下去的意志”，空格处意为“不管”。故选A。
6. The simple wooden home has changed remarkably little as if in the 1950s.
A being stuck B. having stuck C. to be stuck D. stuck
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查状语从句省略句和非谓语动词。句意：这个简单木屋变化很少，就像凝固在20世界50年代一样。此处是as if引导状语从句省略句，从句主语the simple wooden home和从句谓语动词stick是被动关系，谓语动词stick用be done形式，事情已发生，过去时态，原句为：the simple wooden home was stuck in the 1950s，状语从句中，当从句主语和主句主语一致（或者从句主语为it）且从句谓语中包含be动词，可省略从句主语和be动词，用过去分词stuck，故选D。
7. Make sure your cell-phone number is on the pet dog’s collar he gets lost.
A. because B. in case C. since D. so that
【答案】B
【解析】

8. Food supplies in the flood-stricken area _______. We must act immediately before there’s none left.
A. have run out B. have been run out C. are running out D. are being run out
【答案】C
【解析】
【分析】




【详解】考查动词时态及语态。句意：在洪灾区供应的食物快用完了，在用完之前我们必须立刻采取措施。are running out表示将要用完，run out不能用被动形式。故排除B、D；选项A表示已经用完，不符合语意，故选C。
【点睛】本题难度适中。动词时态及语态是高中阶段的重难点之一，高中要求掌握的时态需要考生牢记它们的用法，但是时态必须要结合一定的语境才能做出正确的判断。这里考生容易误选D。即学即练: —Bob has gone to California.——Oh, can you tell me when he ?A. has left B. left C. is leaving D. would leave解析：B。句意：—Bob已经去了加利福尼亚。——噢，你能告诉我他什么时候离开的？”Bob has gone to California，去的动作已经发生过，说明他离开的动作发生在过去，因此使用一般过去时。选B。
9. The billboard ________ by the wind has been moved off the road.
A. being blown down B. blown down C. blowing down D. that blew down
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：被风吹倒的广告牌已经从路上移开了。分析句子结构，空处应用非谓语动词。逻辑主语The billboard和blow down之间是动宾关系，且这里表示已经发生的动作，应用过去分词，作后置定语。故选B。
10. The city temperatures have returned from record low to normal, ________ the citizens to enjoy the outdoors again.
A. allowing B. being allowed
C. having allowed D. having been allowed
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：这个城市的温度已经从历史最低温度回归正常，使得人们又重新开始享受户外活动。分析句子可知，句子谓语动词是have returned，allow用非谓语动词形式作状语，根据句意，表示自然而然的结果，用现在分词作结果状语，故选A。

11. Currently, about 35,000 works ________ in over 300 rooms in the Louvre, and it would take a lifetime to see everything.
A. were displaying B. are displaying
C. were being displayed D. are being displayed
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和语态。目前，大约有35000件作品陈列在卢浮宫的300多个展室里，要看完所有的展品恐怕要花一辈子的时间。根据上文“Currently(目前)”可知，应该用现在进行时；display与主语works之间为被动关系，所以用现在进行时的被动。故选D。
12. The party will be held in the garden, weather 　　 　　.
A. permitting B. to permit
C. permitted D. permit
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查独立主格结构。句意：如果天气允许，聚会将会在花园里举行。当分词做状语的时候，如果分词的逻辑主语与句子主语没有关系，就在分词的前面直接加上逻辑主语，形成独立主格结构，该结构在作用上就相当于一个状语从句。本句中两部分之间没有连词，且weather与permit构成主动关系，所以使用独立主格结构weather permitting的形式，相当于条件状语从句。故选A项。
13. Hot _______the night air was, we slept deeply because we were so tired after the long journey.
A. although B. as C. while D. however
【答案】B
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查状语从句。句意：尽管夜晚的空气很热，我们还是睡得很沉，因为经过长途旅行我们太累了。hot是做从句的表语，提前说明让步状语从句倒装，即as引导的让步状语从句中，要将从句中的表语，状语，或动词原形提到as之前，故选B。
【点睛】
14. It is requested that no one ________ told of the finial decision before everything settles down.
A. be B. will be C. was D. would be
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查虚拟语气。句意：要求在一切安定下来之前不要告诉任何人最后的决定。request意为“请求”，当其后接宾语为从句（宾语从句）时，从句谓语常用“(should) + 动词原形”的结构。should可省略。故选A项。
15. It’s no use ________ without taking action.
A. complain B. complaining C. being complained D. to be complained
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查固定句型。句意：抱怨而不采取行动是没用的。It’s no use doing sth.做某事没用的，it是形式主语，doing sth.是真正的主语，故选B。

As a young girl growing up in France, Sarah Toumi dreamed of becoming a leader who could make the world a better place. Her passion to help others was awakened when, from the age of nine, she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. There she organized homework clubs and activities for children.
Toumi witnessed first-hand the destructive effect of desertification (沙漠化). ”Within 10 years rich farmers became worse off, and in 10 years from now they will be poor. I wanted to stop the Sahara Desert in its tracks.“ A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 per cent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification.
Toumi recognized that farming practices needed to change. She is confident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers are able to adapt by planting sustainable crops, using new technologies for water treatment and focusing on natural products and fertilisers (肥料) rather than chemicals.
In 2012, Toumi continued her dream to fight the desert. She moved to Tunisia, and setup a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action. ”I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water.“
By September 2016, more than 130,000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 per cent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. She expects to plant 1 million trees by 2028. In the next couple of years, Toumi hopes to extend the programme to Algeria and Morocco.
19. How did Toumi’s holiday trips to Tunisia influence her?
A. They fired her enthusiasm for helping others.
B. They helped her better understand her father.
C. They made her decide to leave the country.
D. They destroyed her dream of being a teacher.
20. What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia’s farmland?
A. Cold weather. B. Soil pollution.
C. Low rainfall. D. Forest damage.
21. Why did Toumi set up Acacias for All in Tunisia?
A. To create job opportunities for young people.
B. To facilitate the protection of their farmland.
C. To persuade the farmers not to use fertilizers.
D. To help the children obtain a basic education.
22. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Saving Water in Africa
B. Fighting Poverty in North Africa
C. Holding back the Sahara
D. Planting Trees in Tunisia
【答案】19. A 20. C 21. B 22. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了主人公图米在假期陪伴父亲回突尼斯东部的出生地后，激发了她要帮助当地人的热情，由此创立了Acacias for All项目，种植金合欢树，保护当地农田免遭撒哈拉沙漠吞噬，实践其可持续农业的理念。
【19题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Her passion to help others was awakened when, from the age of nine, she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. (从9岁起，她就开始在假期陪伴她来自于突尼斯的父亲去突尼斯东部的出生地，这激发了她帮助他人的热情。)”可知，图米去突尼斯度假的经历唤醒了她帮助他人的热情。故选A项。
【20题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification. (平均降雨量的减少和干旱严重程度的增加导致突尼斯大约75%的农业土地受到沙漠化的威胁。)”可知，降雨量少是突尼斯农田沙漠化的主要原因。故选C项。
【21题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段第二句“She moved to Tunisia, and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action. (她搬到突尼斯，并建立了一个名为Acacias for All的项目，将她的可持续农业理念付诸行动。)”以及最后一段中“By September 2016, more than 130, 000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 percent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. (截至2016年9月，在20个试点农场种植了13万多棵金合欢树，农民记录其成活率达到60%。图米估计，为了保护突尼斯的农田，大约需要300万棵金金合欢。)”可知，她创立Acacias for All项目的目的是保护当地的农田。故选B项。
【22题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其最后一段中“By September 2016, more than 130, 000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 per cent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. (截至2016年9月，在20个试点农场种植了13万多棵金合欢树，农民记录其成活率达到60%。图米估计，为了保护突尼斯的农田，大约需要300万棵金合槐。)”可知，文章讲述的是主人公图米在9岁时，在一次陪伴爸爸回突尼斯家乡时激发了她要帮助当地人的热情，由此创立了Acacias for All项目，种植金合欢树，改善保护当地农田，坚持与沙漠化作斗争，实践其可持续农业的理念。C选项“Holding back the Sahara (阻挡撒哈拉沙漠)”符合文章标题。故选C。
C

For years, David James, who studies insects at Washington State University, had wanted to examine the migration (迁徙)patterns of West Coast monarch butterflies (黑脉金斑蝶). The route the butterflies travel has been hardly known because the populations are too small to follow. For every 200 monarchs tagged (打标签)by a researcher, only one is usually recovered at the end of its trip, James says, and finding even 200 in the wild to tag is unlikely. Knowing the route is vital to conservation efforts, but James had no way to figure it out- until he got a phone call from Washington State Penitentiary in Walla Walla.
The prison was looking for new activities to improve the mental health of those serving long-term sentences. So James began working with prisoners to raise monarchs through the whole process of their transformation. The adult insects were then tagged and released from the prison. Over five years, nearly 10, 000 monarchs flew from the facility. Elsewhere in Washington, Oregon and Idaho, researchers released another few thousand.
The tags included email addresses, and soon after the first butterflies took off, James started receiving messages from people who had spotted them. The butterflies, the reports confirmed, wintered in coastal California. Twelve of them landed at Lighthouse Field State Beach in Santa Cruz. Several more headed to Bolinas and Morro Bay.
The work helps researchers identify ideal places to plant milkweed and other vegetation that are important to the life cycle of West Coast monarch butterflies. It also brought out the gentler side of some of the prisoners. “They were very worried that they were going to harm the butterflies, ”James says. Watching the monarch change their form also touched the men. “This butterfly changed, ” James recalls prisoners telling him, “and maybe we can too. ”
23. What was hard for David to do in his study?
A. Gain financial support. B. Hire qualified workers.
C. Build a new laboratory. D. Find enough monarchs.
24. Why are the butterflies tagged before being released?
A. To guarantee their safety.
B. To enable them to fly longer distances.
C. To track their travel routes.
D. To distinguish them from other species.
25. What makes the prisoners feel that they can change?
A. The patience the butterflies showed.
B. The hardship the butterflies underwent.
C. The transformation of the butterflies.
D. The devotion of James to the butterflies.
26. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The impact of the research.
B. The findings of James’ study.
C. The release of the prisoners.
D. The life cycle of the butterflies.
【答案】23. D 24. C 25. C 26. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了David James想要研究黑脉金斑蝶的迁徙，但是很难找到足够可以跟踪的蝴蝶，华盛顿州立监狱的囚犯帮助饲养蝴蝶，然后打上包括邮箱地址的标签放飞， James收到了来自发现蝴蝶的人们的信息，从而让研究工作顺利进行，这项工作帮助研究人员确定了理想的种植马利筋和其他植被的地方，这些植被对西海岸黑脉金斑蝶蝶的生命周期很重要，也激发了一些囚犯温和的一面。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“The route the butterflies travel has been hardly known because the populations are too small to follow. For every 200 monarchs tagged (打标签)by a researcher, only one is usually recovered at the end of its trip, James says, and finding even 200 in the wild to tag is unlikely.( 蝴蝶的飞行路线几乎不为人知，因为它们的数量太少，无法跟随。詹姆斯说，每200只被研究人员标记的帝王蝴蝶，通常只有一只在旅行结束时被找到，而在野外找到200只帝王蝶也不太可能。)”可知，对于戴维来说，研究中最困难的是找到足够的黑脉金斑蝶。故选D。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The tags included email addresses, and soon after the first butterflies took off, James started receiving messages from people who had spotted them. The butterflies, the reports confirmed, wintered in coastal California. Twelve of them landed at Lighthouse Field State Beach in Santa Cruz. Several more headed to Bolinas and Morro Bay. ( 这些标签包括电子邮件地址，在第一批蝴蝶起飞后不久，詹姆斯开始收到发现它们的人发来的信息。报道证实，这些蝴蝶在加州沿海过冬。其中12只降落在圣克鲁斯的Lighthouse Field State Beach。更多的前往Bolinas和Morro Bay。)”可推断，在释放之前给这些蝴蝶打上标签是为了跟踪它们的旅行路线。故选C。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的“It also brought out the gentler side of some of the prisoners. ‘They were very worried that they were going to harm the butterflies,’James says. Watching the monarch change their form also touched the men.‘This butterfly changed,’James recalls prisoners telling him, ‘and maybe we can too.’(它也带来了一些囚犯的温和的一面。“他们非常担心他们会伤害蝴蝶,”詹姆斯说。看着黑脉金斑蝶改变他们的形式也感动了这些男人。“这只蝴蝶改变了,”詹姆斯回忆说,囚犯告诉他,“也许我们也可以。”)”可知，蝴蝶的改变感动了这些囚犯，他们觉得蝴蝶可以变形，他们也可以改变，因此可知是蝴蝶的改变让囚犯感觉自己也可以改变。故选C。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段的“The work helps researchers identify ideal places to plant milkweed and other vegetation that are important to the life cycle of West Coast monarch butterflies. It also brought out the gentler side of some of the prisoners.( 这项工作帮助研究人员确定理想了的种植马利筋和其他植被的地方，这些植被对西海岸黑脉金斑蝶蝶的生命周期很重要。它也激发了一些囚犯温和的一面。)”可推断，本段主要讲述这项研究工作的影响。故选A。

D
A butterfly-shaped island in the central Aegean hopes to become Greece’s first carbon-free tourist destination.Under a deal with the government, Volkswagen, a carmaker, has donated several new electric vehicles for use by Astypalea’s public services; it will sell others at cost price to its 1,200 year-round residents. In return, the government has offered more financial assistance for islanders to buy electric cars and will build a solar and wind-fuelled power plant to replace polluting generators.
Unlike other nearby islands, Astypalea is not connected to Greece’s electricity providers. With only 3,000 rooms for visitors in small hotels or flats, tourism is still low-key. Many residents make a living the old-fashioned way: raising goats, keeping bees and fishing. The island was selected for Volkswagen’s experiment after Nikos Komineas,the go-ahead mayor, contacted the transport ministry for help in finding an electric bus to try out on its rough roads.
Most islanders sound keen on the project. Mr Komineas expects the number of private cars on Astypalea to fall by a third over the next five years. Its residents, he says, will get around on electric minibuses, which will be free,linked to a mobile-phone app and available round the clock.
Some observers smell greenwashing in the project. A bid for a solar park that would generate half the island’s electricity within three years will not get under way before the tourist season ends. A single wind-fuelled engine will be set up only in 2026, assuming the licensing process goes smoothly. That is not normally the case in the Aegean, where islanders worry that tourists will go elsewhere if the view is spoiled by an engine 200 meters high. And even then, the solar and wind-fulled power unit is planned to cover only about 80% of summer demand. But it is a start.
27. Why has Volkswagen signed the deal with the government?
A. To control car prices. B. To help generate electricity.
C. To promote public transport. D. To build a zero-carbon island.
28. What makes Astypalea different from other nearby islands?
A. It has an aggressive leader. B. It is out of the national electricity network.
C. It is a crowded tourist destination. D. It has various goats, bees and fishes.
29. The underlined word “green washing” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.
A. an island with few tourists B. a process with little support
C. an engine with no polluting fuel D. a strategy with no meaningful changes
30. What does the author think of the project?
A. It’s pioneering. B. It’s practical.
C. It’s destructive. D. It’s costly.
【答案】27. D 28. B 29. D 30. A
