B
I work at a company where there are lots of employees. I can’t say that I know them all by name, but I know my fair share of them. I think that almost all of them know me. It is all based on one simple principle: I believe that every single person deserves to be acknowledged, even though it is only a smile or a nod of the head.
When I was about ten years old, I was walking down the street with my mother. She stopped to speak to Mr. Lee. I was busy throwing stones at the stop sign. I knew I could see Mr. Lee any old time around the neighborhood, so I didn’t pay any attention to him. After we passed Mr. Lee, my mother stopped me and said something that has stuck with me from that day until now. She said, “You let that be the last time you ever walk by somebody and not open up your mouth to speak, because even a dog can wave its tail when it passes you on the street.” That phrase sounds simple, but it’s been a guidepost for me and the foundation of who I am.
At work I always used to say hello to the founder of the company and ask him how our business was doing. But I also spoke to the people who cleaned the buildings and asked how their children were doing. I’ve become vice president, but that hasn’t changed the way I approach people. I still follow my mother’s advice. I speak to everyone I see, no matter where I am. You will realize how powerful it is just to open your mouth and say, “Hello.” I’ve learned that speaking to people creates a pathway into their world, and it lets them come into mine, too.
4. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “acknowledged” in Paragraph 1?
A. Accepted. B. Thanked.
C. Greeted. D. Respected.
5. Why did the author ignore Mr. Lee?
A. The author often met him. B. The author was too busy.
C. The author didn’t like him. D. The author didn’t know him.
6. What did the author learn from his mother?
A. Everyone should be treated fairly. B. Speak to everyone you see.
C. Polite behavior is important in your life. D. Friends may disappear from your life any time.
7. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To show respect for his mother. B. To share how to succeed in work.
C. To show how to approach others. D. To share an important principle.
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. D
【解析】
这是一篇夹叙夹议文。记叙了作者十岁时因为不和经常遇到的李先生打招呼，而被母亲教育要跟遇到的每一个人打招呼，礼貌待人，这也成为了作者的一条人生准则。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。根据后文even though it is only a smile or a nod of the head可知，作者相信每个人都值得被打招呼，即使只是一个微笑或点头。由此可知，划线单词“acknowledged”意思为“打招呼”。A. accepted接受；B. thanked感谢；C. greeted打招呼；D. respected尊重。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中I knew I could see Mr. Lee any old time around the neighborhood, so I didn’t pay any attention to him.可知，我知道在这附近我随时都能见到李先生，所以我没有注意他。由此可知，作者无视李先生是因为作者经常遇到他。故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中She said, “You let that be the last time you ever walk by somebody and not open up your mouth to speak, because even a dog can wave its tail when it passes you on the street.” That phrase sounds simple, but it’s been a guidepost for me and the foundation of who I am.可知，她说：“这是你最后一次从别人身边走过却不开口说话，因为即使是狗在街上经过你身边时也会摇尾巴。”这句话听起来很简单，但它一直是我的路标和我是谁的基础。由此可知，作者从他的母亲那里学到了见到谁就跟谁说话。故选B。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中It is all based on one simple principle: I believe that every single person deserves to be acknowledged, even though it is only a smile or a nod of the head.可知，这一切都基于一个简单的原则:我相信每个人都值得被打招呼，即使只是一个微笑或点头。结合文章记叙了作者十岁时因为不和经常遇到的李先生打招呼，而被母亲教育要跟遇到的每一个人打招呼，礼貌待人，这也成为了作者的一条人生准则。由此可推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是分享一个重要的原则。故选D。
C
Young children are significantly more likely than adults to have their opinions influenced by robots, according to a new research. The study, conducted at the University of Plymouth, compared how adults and children respond to an identical task when in the presence of both their peers（同龄人）and robots.
It showed that while adults regularly have their opinions influenced by peers, something also showed in previous studies, they are largely able to resist being persuaded by robots. However, children aged between seven and nine were more likely to give the same responses as the robots, even if they were obviously incorrect.
The study asks people to look at a screen showing four lines and say which two match in length. When alone, people almost never make a mistake but when doing the experiment with others, they tend to follow what others are saying.
When children were alone in the room in this research, they scored 87% on the test, but when the robots join in their score drops to 75%. And of the wrong answers, 74% matched those of the robot.
The research was led by former Plymouth researcher Anna Vollmer and Professor in Robotics Tony Belpaeme, from the University of Plymouth and Ghent University.
Professor Belpaeme said: “People often follow the opinions of others and we’ve known for a long time that it is hard to resist taking over views and opinions of people around us. But as robots will soon be found in the home and the workplace, we were wondering if people would follow robots. What our results show is that adults do not follow what the robots are saying. But when we did the experiment with children, they did. It shows children can perhaps have more of an affinity（亲和力）with robots than adults, which does give the question: what if robots were to suggest, for example, what products to buy or what to think?”
8. What did the adults do when staying with robots？
A. They totally accept the robots’ suggestions.
B. They generally refused the robots’ effects.
C. They tried to persuade robots to resist them.
D. They usually compared robots with their children.
9. Why did some children made more mistakes in the experiment?
A. Because children were not as clever as adults.
B. Because robots in the presence made such mistakes.
C. Because robots reflected better than human beings.
D. Because children wanted to affect the robots on purpose.
10. What is Professor Belpaeme’s attitude towards the result of the experiment?
A. He is optimistic about the result. B. He doubts the result of the research.
C. He doesn’t care about the result. D. He is so worried about the future.
11. What should be followed after the last paragraph?
A. What will we do to teach our children?
B. What will adults do to avoid the problem?
C. What will people do to solve such problems?
D. Why are children influenced by such robots?
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要谈论了根据最新的研究表明，机器人或将影响孩子独立思考能力，这需要引起大家的思考和警惕。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第2段“It showed that while adults regularly have their opinions influenced by peers, something also showed in previous studies, they are largely able to resist being persuaded by robots.”可知，成年人虽然容易被同龄人所影响，但是很大程度上能够抵制机器人的影响和干扰。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第3段“And of the wrong answers, 74% matched those of the robot. 在错误的答案中，74%的答案与机器人的答案是一致的。”可知因为机器人的错误答案导致了儿童判断的错误。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第6段“What our results show is that adults do not follow what the robots are saying. But when we did the experiment with children, they did. It shows children can perhaps have more of an affinity（亲和力）with robots than adults, which does give the question: what if robots were to suggest, for example, what products to buy or what to think?”可知，研究结果表明：成年人不会迎合机器人的说法，但是孩子们会被机器人的思维引导。而且孩子们比成年人更喜欢机器人，因此Belpaeme教授很担心孩子们的未来。故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“which does give the question: what if robots were to suggest, for example, what products to buy or what to think?”可知Belpaeme教授提出一个比较担忧的问题，所以接下来应该续写人们如何来解决这个问题。故选C项。
【点睛】推理判断题是指在理解原文字面意思的基础上，通过对语篇逻辑关系的分析和细节的暗示，做出一定的判断和推理，从而得到文章的深层意义和隐含意义的过程。如第3小题，询问Belpaeme教授对实验结果的态度？根据文章第6段“What our results show is that adults do not follow what the robots are saying. But when we did the experiment with children, they did. It shows children can perhaps have more of an affinity（亲和力）with robots than adults, which does give the question: what if robots were to suggest, for example, what products to buy or what to think?”可知研究结果表明：成年人不会迎合机器人的说法，但是孩子们会被机器人的思维引导。而且孩子们比成年人更喜欢机器人，因此Belpaeme教授很担心孩子们的未来。故选D项。
D
Seattle on Sunday became the first major US city to ban drinking straws(吸管), an environmentally friendly move that leaders hope will spark a nationwide conversation about small, everyday changes that people can make to protect the planet.
A decade ago, the city adopted a law requiring that all one-time-use food-service items be compostable(可分解的) or recyclable. But straws were exempted from that law because there were not many good alternatives. So the straws stayed, along with the environmental problems they cause.
Most plastic straws aren’t heavy enough to make it through industrial recycling sorters, and can ruin an otherwise good load of recycling. Or they end up getting blown out of trash cans and car windows and eventually wind up in the oceans, where they can hurt wildlife.
Strawless Ocean estimates that 71 percent of seabirds and 30 percent of turtles have some kind of plastic in their stomachs. The organization says plastic can increase the death rate of marine life by 50 percent.
Now customers at grocery stores, restaurants, food trucks, even institutional cafeterias have to find another way to get liquid into their mouths. Compostable paper straws are allowed under the ban. People who have a medical need to use a straw are not included. 
Failure to obey may result in a US$250 fine, although city leaders said that the purpose of the law is more about raising awareness. In September, 150 businesses participated in Strawless in Seattle, an attempt to reduce the use of plastic straws. In that month alone, Strawless Ocean estimates, 2.3 million plastic straws were removed from the city.
“When you get your iced drink, you’re going to get a straw. When you get your wine, you’re probably going to get a straw,” said Dune Ives, executive director of the Lonely Whale Foundation, which led the campaign. “Imagine a world where we could stop consuming 500 million straws a day, just in America!” the campaign says. “Imagine a world that is less dependent on plastic. That’s change we can start today!”
12. What does the underlined word “exempted” mean in the second paragraph？
A. To make something out of the list. B. To make something better than before.
C. To include something in a special list. D. To forgive someone who makes mistakes.
13. What the problem may the drinking straws cause according to the passage?
A. They may make the trash cans dirty. B. They may destroy American recycling system.
C. They may cause much ocean wildlife in danger. D. They may cause many companies get fined.
14. What is the attitude of the public towards the ban?
A. Many people are in favor of it. B. Many people pay no attention to it.
C. Some people are strongly against it. D. Only the government workers agree with it.
15. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Seattle becomes first major US city to ban straws.
B. Seattle successfully bans people from using straws.
C. Seattle has been working hard to protect the environment.
D. Imagine a world that is less dependent on plastic.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. A 15. A
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了上周日，西雅图成为美国首个禁止使用吸管的大城市。美国领导人希望这一环保举措能引发一场全国性的讨论，让人们从日常生活中的点滴做起，保护我们的地球。文章还说明了塑料吸管对环境的影响，以及公众对此的态度。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据后文because there were not many good alternatives. So the straws stayed, along with the environmental problems they cause.可知但是，由于没有太多好的替代品，吸管被排除在这项法律之外。因此，这些吸管留下了，连同它们造成的环境问题。由此可知，划线单词“exempted”意思为“排除”。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中Or they end up getting blown out of trash cans and car windows and eventually wind up in the oceans, where they can hurt wildlife.可知或者它们会被吹出垃圾桶和车窗，最终进入海洋，在那里它们会伤害到野生动物。由此可知，吸管可能会导致许多海洋野生动物处于危险之中。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中In September, 150 businesses participated in Strawless in Seattle, an attempt to reduce the use of plastic straws. In that month alone, Strawless Ocean estimates, 2.3 million plastic straws were removed from the city.可知9月，150家企业参加了西雅图的“无吸管”活动，该活动旨在减少塑料吸管的使用。据“无吸管海洋”组织估计，仅在那个月，就有230万根塑料吸管被从该市运走。由此可推知，公众对这一禁令做出了积极的响应，是赞成这项禁令的。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中Seattle on Sunday became the first major US city to ban drinking straws(吸管), an environmentally friendly move that leaders hope will spark a nationwide conversation about small, everyday changes that people can make to protect the planet.可知上周日，西雅图成为美国首个禁止使用吸管的大城市。美国领导人希望这一环保举措能引发一场全国性的讨论，让人们从日常生活中的点滴做起，保护我们的地球。结合文章主要说明了上周日，西雅图成为美国首个禁止使用吸管的大城市。美国领导人希望这一环保举措能引发一场全国性的讨论，让人们从日常生活中的点滴做起，保护我们的地球。文章还说明了塑料吸管对环境的影响，以及公众对此的态度。由此可知，A选项“西雅图成为美国第一个禁止使用吸管的大城市”最符合文章标题，故选A。

A. Get social

50. to produce
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。本文讲了信阳毛尖的名字由来和它的历史发展和种植条件等。
【41题详解】
考查定冠词。在序数词前加定冠词，the first表示“第一”。
【42题详解】
考查which引导非限制性定语从句。the tea为先行词，后面的句子为非限制性定语从句，先行词在从句中做主语，指物，故用which，不能用that，因that不能引导非限制性定语从句。
【43题详解】
考查现在分词短语作定语。date back to追溯到。句中动词date与所修饰的中心词history之间为主动关系，用现在分词形式。
【44题详解】
考查被动语态。此句主语为不可数名词tea，与动词discover是被动关系，且发生时间为过去，故用was discovered。
【45题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意：在上个世纪，信阳毛尖被认为是十大最好的（best）茶叶之一。“one of the +形容词最高级+复数名词”表示“最……之一的……”。
【46题详解】
考查介词。这里用with表示“具有，带有”，with a mild climate and good conditions短语作后置定语，修饰a place。。
【47题详解】
考查副词用法。此处用副词clearly修饰谓语is divided。句意：信阳毛尖被种植在高地上，那里四季分明。
【48题详解】
考查with复合结构中名词作宾语。with large temperature difference between day and night昼夜温差巨大。这里空格处是做with的宾语，所以要用名词形式。
【49题详解】
考查名词的单复数。此处advantage指“好处，优点”，由these修饰，应用复数形式，故advantages。
【50题详解】
考查不定式作目的状语。句意：这些地理优势使得土壤健康富饶，同时茶树可以高效地吸收化学元素生产出高质量的绿茶。这里是表示目的，故用不定式。
第四部分：写作(共两节，满分35分)
第一节短文改错(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
51.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号(Λ)，并在其下面写出该加的词。
删除：把多余的词用斜线(＼)划掉。
修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；
2. 只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。
Last summer, to my delighted, I got a chance to go to the United Kingdom. I was eager to see what England was like. Although my parents objected to my decision at first, but finally they were persuaded. It was the first time that I have travelled abroad alone. Felt excited, I boarded the plane. Suddenly, however, I found my luggages gone and felt helplessly. It was on that moment that an airhostess came to my assistance. After helping me find it back, she suggested that I attached a label to my suitcase on my next journey. I was thankful to the kind lady for his help! What unforgettable trip!
【答案】1. delighted→delight
2. 删除but
3. have→had
4. Felt→Feeling
5. luggages→luggage
6. helplessly→helpless
7. was后的on改为at
8. attached→attach
9. his→her
10. 在unforgettable前加an
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者乘飞机独自去英国旅行时，把行李弄丢了。就在作者绝望之时，一位空姐及时出现帮助作者找回了行李并建议作者下次贴好标签，作者很感激这位空姐。
【详解】1. 考查固定搭配。句意：去年夏天，令我开心的是，我获得了一个去英国的机会。“令某人开心的是”固定表达为to one’s delight，所以在形容词性物主代词my的后面应该用名词形式的delight。故将delighted改为delight。
2. 考查并列词。在英文句子中，although和but不能同时出现；因为句首已经有although，故but多余，应去掉。
3. 考查时态。此处考查了过去完成时态的固定句型，it was the first time that+过去完成时；过去完成时的结构为had done。故将have改为had。
4. 考查非谓语动词。在句子“Felt excited, I boarded the plane.”中，谓语动词为boarded，句中无连词，所以这是一个简单句，可推断felt为非谓语动词；felt与逻辑主语I之间为主动关系，表示主动要用现在分词形式。故将Felt改为Feeling。
5. 考查不可数名词。luggage为不可数名词，没有复数形式。故将luggages改为luggage。
6. 考查形容词作表语。felt为感官动词，后面接形容词作表语。故将hopelessly改为hopeless。
7. 考查固定搭配。句意：就在那时，一位空姐来帮我了。“在那时”的固定表达为at that moment, 故将on改为at。
8. 考查虚拟语气。suggested在此处意为“建议”，后跟宾语从句时，从句要用虚拟语气，结构为（should）+动词原形，should可以省略。故将attached改为attach。
9. 考查人称代词。句意：我很感激这位善良女士的帮助。根据前文的“an airhostess”及she和“the kind lady”可知，作者要感激的对象是一位女士。故将his改为her。
10. 考查冠词。句意：这是一次令人难忘的旅行。trip是可数名词，前面要有限定词，结合句意可知此处表达“一次”的意思，故要用不定冠词；unforgettable为元音发音的单词，应该选择不定冠词an。故要在unforgettable和trip之间加an。
【点睛】在“It was the first time that I have travelled abroad alone.”很多考生看不出错误之处，原因在于跟现在完成时的句型混淆了。现在完成时有一个类似的句型：It is the first time that +现在完成时；而过去完成时的句型为It was the first time that +过去完成时。从句用现在完成时还是过去完成时，主要看主句的时态，要与主句时态保持一致。
