What is Strengths Finder
Do you have the opportunity to do best every day?
Chances are you don’t. All too often, our natural talents go undeveloped. We devote more time to fixing our disadvantages than to developing our advantages.
In 1998, the Father of Strengths Psychology, Donald O. Clifton, Ph. D. (1924～2003), along with Tom Rath and a team of scientists at The Gallup Organization, created the online Strenghths Finder assessment (评估).
To help people develop their talents, in 2001, Gallup introduced the first online assessment, Strengths Finder, which led to a global conversation and helped millions to discover their top five talents. In 2004, the assessment’s name was formally changed to Clifton Strengths Finder in honor of its designer.
In 2007, Rath and Gallup scientists released (发行) a new edition (版本) of the assessment called Strengths Finder 2.0. Rooted (扎根) in more than 40 years of research, this assessment has continued to help millions discover and develop their natural talents.
In its latest national bestseller, Strengths Finder 2,0, Gallup releases the new and improves its popular assessment and much more. While you can read this book, you’ll use it as a reference for decades.
With hundreds of ways to apply your strengths, the new book and website will change the way you look at yourself—and the world around you—forever.
Available in Strengths Finder 2.0
*A popular price: $ 20
*A special price: Save 20% for students
You can know about its information on www.gallup.com/press/176429/strengthsfinder.aspx.
1. When was the first strengths Finder online assessment introduced?
A. In 1998. B. In 2001.

2. How much should a student pay for the two books strengths Finder 2.0?

What are martial (武术的)arts and swordsmen like? To most Chinese, the answer to this question can be found in the works of the late novelist Jin Yong. Jin, whose real name was Zha Liangyong, died on Tuesday evening in Hong Kong, aged 94. The news soon spread all over Chinese mainland, where he inspired a generation, guiding them into the world of Wuxia, namely, swordsmen.
In his books, readers can learn about Chinese calligraphy(书法), painting,music,medicine and wine. He was the most successful writer in popularizing traditional Chinese culture. Chinese people had a deeply-rooted admiration for noble qualities and love for the country. So he won many people’s heart. Many people are fond of watching films and TV dramas adapted from his books, which influenced many peopled personality and value.
Jin’s influence knew no national boundary. No matter in New York, Singapore or Vancouver, where there are Chinese, there are his readers. His death marks the end of an era for martial art novels. We can hardly expect to see other writers with such influence and artistic achievement as him.
In terms of writing technique, Jin borrowed from Western plays. Some of his plots were just like ancient Greek tragedy. For instance, in his Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils (《天龙八部》), the hero was like a tragic figure in Greek mythology. Writers in the West created new worlds like the one in the Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter. If there is an imagined world in China, that is the world with martial arts and swordsmen Jin wrote for us.
4. How does Jin influence his readers?
A. By making films and TV dramas.
B. By making his readers read his books.
C. By making his readers love for country.
D. By making traditional Chinese culture popular.
5. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. Jin knew no national boundary.
B. Other writers can get achievement as him.
C. An era of martial art novels was ended as he died.
D. People live in foreign countries are his readers.
6. By which did Jin make his writing technique better?
A. Chinese novels. B. Western plays.
C. Greek tragedy. D. Greek mythology.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Basic Introduction of Jin's Life
B. Jin's Writing Technique of His Books
C. Jin's Making Martial Arts and Swordsmen Better
D. The World of Jin's Martial Arts and Swordsmen
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. D

主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了金庸先生作品中的武侠世界对中国人的影响、金庸先生在武侠作品领域中的重要性以及他的作品的写作渊源。也就是介绍了金庸的武侠小说世界。故选D。
【点睛】主旨大意题是篇章阅读一个主要的考察方式，标题题（best title）是其一个典型的考点，也是高考阅读中每年的必考题。主旨大意题解题技巧是不要被文章细节所干扰。一般有两种方式解题：一是看首尾段，根据首尾段内容总结主题思想；二是看每段段首句，根据所有段首句总结主题思想。例如本文中的第四题，就是标题类的主旨大意题，通读全文可知，选项A总结的文章第一二三段的内容，选项B对应的是文章最后一段的内容，选项C只是片面介绍了金庸先生对武侠小说的贡献，选项D则全面总结了本文的内容。所以本题选D。同学们遇到主旨大意题，可以用总结方法解题辅以排除法。
C
Closeness and independence are both important in our life. Though all humans need both of them, women tend to focus on the first and men on the second. It is as if their lifeblood ran in different directions.
These differences can give women and men differing views of the same situation, as they did in the case of couple I will call Tracy and Brian. When Brian’s old high school friend called him at work and announced he’d be in town on business the following month, Brian invited him to stay for the weekend. That evening he informed Tracy that they were going to have a houseguest, and that he and his friend would go out together the first night to chat like old times. Tracy was upset. She was going to be away on business the week before, and the Friday night when Brian would be out with his friend would be her first night home. But what upset her the most was that Brian had made these plans on his own and informed her of them, rather than discussing them with her before extending the invitation.
Tracy would never make plans, for a weekend or an evening, without first checking with Brian. She can’t understand why he doesn’t show her the same courtesy and consideration that she shows him. But when she protests, Brian says, “I can’t say to my friend, ‘I have to ask my wife for permission’!”
To Brian, checking with his wife means seeking permission, which implies that he is not independent, not free to act on his own. To Tracy, checking with her husband makes her feel good to know and show that she is involved with someone, that her life is bound up with someone else’s.
Tracy and Brian both felt upset by this incident because it cut to the core of their primary concerns. Tracy was hurt because she sensed a failure of closeness in their relationship: He didn’t care about her as much as she cared about him. And he was hurt because he felt she was trying to control him and limit his freedom.
8. What is the primary purpose of the author in writing this passage?
A. To educate the reader on how to maintain good family relationships.
B. To tell the reader how to make close connections with other people.
C. To suggest the best way of coping with family conflicts.
D. To explain the difference in communication styles between men and women.
9. Tracy was upset because ________.
A. she didn’t know Brian’s friend
B. she was too busy to meet Brian’s friend
C. Brian didn’t care about her and hurt her deeply
D. Brian didn’t consult her before inviting his friends home
10. What would Tracy most probably do if she plans to buy something expensive?
A. She would discuss with Brian.
B. She would simply decide on her own.
C. She would ask her friends for advice.
D. She would buy Brian something expensive first.
11. According to the passage, compared with men, women tend to ________.
A. be more emotional
B. be easier to get hurt
C. emphasize more on sharing
D. emphasize more on independence
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. A 11. C
【解析】

【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“Tracy would never make plans, for a weekend or an evening, without first checking with Brian.”可知Tracy在买价格贵的物品的时候会和Brian商量。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。文章的第一段就指出：女性更倾向于亲近，男性更倾向于独立。由此可以推断出女性更愿意与人分享，从而使关系更亲近。A,B选项文中未提及，D选项情况刚相反，应该是男性更倾向于独立。故选C。

Video producer and musician Justin Scholar enjoyed his fantastic moment weeks ago when he spotted his latest work playing on a huge electronic screen at New York’s Times Square.
“It’s sort of the American dream to see your name up inlights,’’ says the 25-year-old New Jersey native. “I’d never really cared about my name being that big, but going to New York and seeing the big screens, you always wonder if your work is going to make it up there.
The video that helps Scholar fulfill his “ American dream" was shot and produced in China, where Scholar is living and working as a media company owner. Scholar took his first Chinese class in high school seven years ago and made his first trip to Shanghai in 2015 through a study-abroad program when he was a student in New York University. The film and TV major changed his focus from technical art to traditional arts during his study in Shanghai, spending most of the time learning ink-and-wash painting, calligraphy and the guzheng,a traditional Chinese musical instrument. He also fell in love with the city, where he ate a lot of authentic xiaolongbao, or steamed meat buns, and felt safe walking on the streets at 3 am.
Shanghai impresses Scholar as an efficient, modern city calling for greater business prosperity with foreign participation, so he returned two years later, when his career at home was already booming after making commercials for big names such as Coca-Cola and Jaguar.
Thanks to a combination of luck and talent, he achieved the goal soon with a Chinese friend as his business partner, and the company has already produced some 15 videos for pop icons, fashionistas, and art museums in merely six months. The video that plays at Times Square, a tourism promotionalfilm for southwest China’s Chongqing city, is the company’s first project contracted(签合同) by a local government in China.
12. What did Scholar study in Shanghai?
A. TV media. B. Technical art.
C. Traditional arts. D. The Chinese language.
13. What is the author s purpose in writing Paragraph 3 and 4?
A. To change to a new topic for writing.
B. To make a conclusion of the first 2 paragraphs.
C. To dive deeper into the previous topic.
D. To add the background information of the video.
14. What do we know about Scholars video?
A It was shot at Times Square.
B. It showed attractions of Chongqing.
C. It was shot in the year 2015.
D. it showed his college life in Shanghai.
15. What’s the main idea of the text?
A. China opens up new routes to international tourists.
B. Shanghai attracts an increasing number of foreigners.
C. American dream unexpectedly comes true with the great video.
D. Young American brings Chinese tourist video to Times Square.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. D
【解析】

推理判断题。文章三、四两段主要讲述了Justin Scholar 在上海留学回国后又返回上海的经历，为第五段所讲述的视频的创作由来添加背景信息。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。由最后一段最后一句中的“The video that plays at Times Square, a tourism promotional film for southwest China’s Chongqing dty”可知，这段视频内容是为中国西南城市重庆拍摄的旅游宣传片。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了美国人Justin Scholar拍摄了重庆旅游宣传视频，并将其在纽约时代广场上播放的故事。选项D中Young American与主人公呼应，其中的brings Chinese tourist video to Times Square与主人公成功的作品呼应。故选D。
【点睛】推理判断中的目的意图题是阅读理解中比较难的题目。每篇文章的结构都是很紧凑的，其中的每一段都应是为其主旨服务的。本文是一篇说明文，从首段可知，本文目的是介绍Justin Scholar的作品，所以其中每一段都是为这个目的服务的。故选D。同学们作目的意图时，要记住时刻呼应文章主题。

We're now bad in need of several American popular magazine that can reflect modern American life. So, could you please help buy some or send them to us? We will cover all the relevant to costs. Also, we would appreciate if you could see to it that the contests of the magazines were suitable for Chinese middle school students.
Thanks a lot! Please replying at your earliest convenience!
Yours,
Li Hua
【答案】1. 第一句中the→a
2. 第二句中understand→understanding
3. 第二句中organized→organizing
4. 第三句中bad→badly
5. 第三句中magazine→magazines
6. 第四句中or→and
7. 第五句中to去掉
8. 第六句中appreciate后加it
9. 第六句中were→are
10. 第八句中replying→reply
【解析】
【分析】
这是一封请求信。李华写信向Charlie求助，李华的学校要举行美国文化节，请Charlie帮她购买一些相关的英语杂志。
【详解】1. 考査冠词。句意：我写信请你帮个忙。favor“帮助，恩惠”是可数名词，此处favor和不定冠词连用表泛指。 ask sb. a favor“请某人帮个忙”是固定用法。故将the改为a。
2. 考査动名词。句意：为帮助我们学生更好地了解美国文化，学生会正在组织一场美国文化节。a better应修饰名词性质的词汇，所以understand应改为其动名词形式。故将understand改为understanding。
3. 考査现在进行时的主动语态。句意同上。此处表示“学生会正在组织一个美国文化节”，主语the Student Union是动作的发出者，因此应该用现在进行时的主动语态。故将organized改为organizing。
4. 考査副词。句意：我们现在急需基本能反映现代美国生活的流行杂志。in need of意为“需要”，修饰其应用副词形式，故将bad改为badly。
5. 考査名词的数。句意同上。根据语境和前面的several可知，此处应该用magazine的复数形式。故将magazine改为magazines。
6. 考査并列连词。句意：你能帮我买一些寄过来吗？买杂志和寄杂志是先后动作，应选用表示顺承关系的连词。故将or改为and。
7. 考査介词。句意：我们会报销所有相关的费用。此处relevant修饰costs，表示“相关费用”，而不是be relevant to结构。故将relevant后的to去掉。
8. 考査代词。句意：我们会非常感谢的，如果你能确定杂志的内容适合中国的中学生阅读。appreciate作“感激”讲时，是一个及物动词，其后必须接宾语，如果宾语是从句，则需要用it作形式宾语，这里用it代指后面的整个if 从句。故在appreciate后面加it。
9. 考查一般现在时。句意同上。此处陈述一般情况，故要用一般现在时。故将were改为are。
10. 考査祈使句。句意：期待你尽快回复。此处是一个祈使句，应该用动词原形。故将replying改为reply。
第二节 书面表达（25分）
52.假设你是高三学生李华，想向心仪的大学投一份申请书。申请到该校攻读本科。请你给该校写一封申请书，推荐自己被录取。

What is Strengths Finder
Do you have the opportunity to do best every day?
Chances are you don’t. All too often, our natural talents go undeveloped. We devote more time to fixing our disadvantages than to developing our advantages.
In 1998, the Father of Strengths Psychology, Donald O. Clifton, Ph. D. (1924～2003), along with Tom Rath and a team of scientists at The Gallup Organization, created the online Strenghths Finder assessment (评估).
To help people develop their talents, in 2001, Gallup introduced the first online assessment, Strengths Finder, which led to a global conversation and helped millions to discover their top five talents. In 2004, the assessment’s name was formally changed to Clifton Strengths Finder in honor of its designer.
In 2007, Rath and Gallup scientists released (发行) a new edition (版本) of the assessment called Strengths Finder 2.0. Rooted (扎根) in more than 40 years of research, this assessment has continued to help millions discover and develop their natural talents.
In its latest national bestseller, Strengths Finder 2,0, Gallup releases the new and improves its popular assessment and much more. While you can read this book, you’ll use it as a reference for decades.
With hundreds of ways to apply your strengths, the new book and website will change the way you look at yourself—and the world around you—forever.
Available in Strengths Finder 2.0
*A popular price: $ 20
*A special price: Save 20% for students
You can know about its information on www.gallup.com/press/176429/strengthsfinder.aspx.
1. When was the first strengths Finder online assessment introduced?
A. In 1998. B. In 2001.
C. In 2004. D. In 2007.
2. How much should a student pay for the two books strengths Finder 2.0?
A. 16 dollars. B. 20 dollars.
C. 32 dollars. D. 40 dollars.
3. Why did Gallup introduce strengths Finder?

What are martial (武术的)arts and swordsmen like? To most Chinese, the answer to this question can be found in the works of the late novelist Jin Yong. Jin, whose real name was Zha Liangyong, died on Tuesday evening in Hong Kong, aged 94. The news soon spread all over Chinese mainland, where he inspired a generation, guiding them into the world of Wuxia, namely, swordsmen.
In his books, readers can learn about Chinese calligraphy(书法), painting,music,medicine and wine. He was the most successful writer in popularizing traditional Chinese culture. Chinese people had a deeply-rooted admiration for noble qualities and love for the country. So he won many people’s heart. Many people are fond of watching films and TV dramas adapted from his books, which influenced many peopled personality and value.
Jin’s influence knew no national boundary. No matter in New York, Singapore or Vancouver, where there are Chinese, there are his readers. His death marks the end of an era for martial art novels. We can hardly expect to see other writers with such influence and artistic achievement as him.
In terms of writing technique, Jin borrowed from Western plays. Some of his plots were just like ancient Greek tragedy. For instance, in his Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils (《天龙八部》), the hero was like a tragic figure in Greek mythology. Writers in the West created new worlds like the one in the Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter. If there is an imagined world in China, that is the world with martial arts and swordsmen Jin wrote for us.
4. How does Jin influence his readers?
A. By making films and TV dramas.
B. By making his readers read his books.
C. By making his readers love for country.
D. By making traditional Chinese culture popular.
5. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. Jin knew no national boundary.
B. Other writers can get achievement as him.
C. An era of martial art novels was ended as he died.
D. People live in foreign countries are his readers.
6. By which did Jin make his writing technique better?
A. Chinese novels. B. Western plays.
C. Greek tragedy. D. Greek mythology.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Basic Introduction of Jin's Life
B. Jin's Writing Technique of His Books
C. Jin's Making Martial Arts and Swordsmen Better
D. The World of Jin's Martial Arts and Swordsmen
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【分析】

【点睛】主旨大意题是篇章阅读一个主要的考察方式，标题题（best title）是其一个典型的考点，也是高考阅读中每年的必考题。主旨大意题解题技巧是不要被文章细节所干扰。一般有两种方式解题：一是看首尾段，根据首尾段内容总结主题思想；二是看每段段首句，根据所有段首句总结主题思想。例如本文中的第四题，就是标题类的主旨大意题，通读全文可知，选项A总结的文章第一二三段的内容，选项B对应的是文章最后一段的内容，选项C只是片面介绍了金庸先生对武侠小说的贡献，选项D则全面总结了本文的内容。所以本题选D。同学们遇到主旨大意题，可以用总结方法解题辅以排除法。
C
Closeness and independence are both important in our life. Though all humans need both of them, women tend to focus on the first and men on the second. It is as if their lifeblood ran in different directions.
These differences can give women and men differing views of the same situation, as they did in the case of couple I will call Tracy and Brian. When Brian’s old high school friend called him at work and announced he’d be in town on business the following month, Brian invited him to stay for the weekend. That evening he informed Tracy that they were going to have a houseguest, and that he and his friend would go out together the first night to chat like old times. Tracy was upset. She was going to be away on business the week before, and the Friday night when Brian would be out with his friend would be her first night home. But what upset her the most was that Brian had made these plans on his own and informed her of them, rather than discussing them with her before extending the invitation.
Tracy would never make plans, for a weekend or an evening, without first checking with Brian. She can’t understand why he doesn’t show her the same courtesy and consideration that she shows him. But when she protests, Brian says, “I can’t say to my friend, ‘I have to ask my wife for permission’!”
To Brian, checking with his wife means seeking permission, which implies that he is not independent, not free to act on his own. To Tracy, checking with her husband makes her feel good to know and show that she is involved with someone, that her life is bound up with someone else’s.
Tracy and Brian both felt upset by this incident because it cut to the core of their primary concerns. Tracy was hurt because she sensed a failure of closeness in their relationship: He didn’t care about her as much as she cared about him. And he was hurt because he felt she was trying to control him and limit his freedom.
8. What is the primary purpose of the author in writing this passage?
A. To educate the reader on how to maintain good family relationships.
B. To tell the reader how to make close connections with other people.
C. To suggest the best way of coping with family conflicts.
D. To explain the difference in communication styles between men and women.
9. Tracy was upset because ________.
A. she didn’t know Brian’s friend
B. she was too busy to meet Brian’s friend
C. Brian didn’t care about her and hurt her deeply
D. Brian didn’t consult her before inviting his friends home
10. What would Tracy most probably do if she plans to buy something expensive?
A. She would discuss with Brian.
B. She would simply decide on her own.
C. She would ask her friends for advice.
D. She would buy Brian something expensive first.
11. According to the passage, compared with men, women tend to ________.
A. be more emotional
B. be easier to get hurt
C. emphasize more on sharing
D. emphasize more on independence
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. A 11. C
【解析】

Video producer and musician Justin Scholar enjoyed his fantastic moment weeks ago when he spotted his latest work playing on a huge electronic screen at New York’s Times Square.
“It’s sort of the American dream to see your name up inlights,’’ says the 25-year-old New Jersey native. “I’d never really cared about my name being that big, but going to New York and seeing the big screens, you always wonder if your work is going to make it up there.
The video that helps Scholar fulfill his “ American dream" was shot and produced in China, where Scholar is living and working as a media company owner. Scholar took his first Chinese class in high school seven years ago and made his first trip to Shanghai in 2015 through a study-abroad program when he was a student in New York University. The film and TV major changed his focus from technical art to traditional arts during his study in Shanghai, spending most of the time learning ink-and-wash painting, calligraphy and the guzheng,a traditional Chinese musical instrument. He also fell in love with the city, where he ate a lot of authentic xiaolongbao, or steamed meat buns, and felt safe walking on the streets at 3 am.
Shanghai impresses Scholar as an efficient, modern city calling for greater business prosperity with foreign participation, so he returned two years later, when his career at home was already booming after making commercials for big names such as Coca-Cola and Jaguar.
Thanks to a combination of luck and talent, he achieved the goal soon with a Chinese friend as his business partner, and the company has already produced some 15 videos for pop icons, fashionistas, and art museums in merely six months. The video that plays at Times Square, a tourism promotionalfilm for southwest China’s Chongqing city, is the company’s first project contracted(签合同) by a local government in China.
12. What did Scholar study in Shanghai?
A. TV media. B. Technical art.
C. Traditional arts. D. The Chinese language.
13. What is the author s purpose in writing Paragraph 3 and 4?
A. To change to a new topic for writing.
B. To make a conclusion of the first 2 paragraphs.
C. To dive deeper into the previous topic.
D. To add the background information of the video.
14. What do we know about Scholars video?
A It was shot at Times Square.
B. It showed attractions of Chongqing.
C. It was shot in the year 2015.
D. it showed his college life in Shanghai.
15. What’s the main idea of the text?
A. China opens up new routes to international tourists.
B. Shanghai attracts an increasing number of foreigners.
C. American dream unexpectedly comes true with the great video.
D. Young American brings Chinese tourist video to Times Square.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. D

Also, we would appreciate if you could see to it that the contests of the magazines were suitable for Chinese middle school students.
Thanks a lot! Please replying at your earliest convenience!

【答案】1. 第一句中the→a
2. 第二句中understand→understanding
3. 第二句中organized→organizing
4. 第三句中bad→badly
5. 第三句中magazine→magazines
6. 第四句中or→and
7. 第五句中to去掉
8. 第六句中appreciate后加it
9. 第六句中were→are
10. 第八句中replying→reply
【解析】
【分析】
这是一封请求信。李华写信向Charlie求助，李华的学校要举行美国文化节，请Charlie帮她购买一些相关的英语杂志。
【详解】1. 考査冠词。句意：我写信请你帮个忙。favor“帮助，恩惠”是可数名词，此处favor和不定冠词连用表泛指。 ask sb. a favor“请某人帮个忙”是固定用法。故将the改为a。
2. 考査动名词。句意：为帮助我们学生更好地了解美国文化，学生会正在组织一场美国文化节。a better应修饰名词性质的词汇，所以understand应改为其动名词形式。故将understand改为understanding。
3. 考査现在进行时的主动语态。句意同上。此处表示“学生会正在组织一个美国文化节”，主语the Student Union是动作的发出者，因此应该用现在进行时的主动语态。故将organized改为organizing。
4. 考査副词。句意：我们现在急需基本能反映现代美国生活的流行杂志。in need of意为“需要”，修饰其应用副词形式，故将bad改为badly。
5. 考査名词的数。句意同上。根据语境和前面的several可知，此处应该用magazine的复数形式。故将magazine改为magazines。
6. 考査并列连词。句意：你能帮我买一些寄过来吗？买杂志和寄杂志是先后动作，应选用表示顺承关系的连词。故将or改为and。
7. 考査介词。句意：我们会报销所有相关的费用。此处relevant修饰costs，表示“相关费用”，而不是be relevant to结构。故将relevant后的to去掉。
8. 考査代词。句意：我们会非常感谢的，如果你能确定杂志的内容适合中国的中学生阅读。appreciate作“感激”讲时，是一个及物动词，其后必须接宾语，如果宾语是从句，则需要用it作形式宾语，这里用it代指后面的整个if 从句。故在appreciate后面加it。
9. 考查一般现在时。句意同上。此处陈述一般情况，故要用一般现在时。故将were改为are。
10. 考査祈使句。句意：期待你尽快回复。此处是一个祈使句，应该用动词原形。故将replying改为reply。
第二节 书面表达（25分）
