一、高中英语任务型阅读

1．阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

Every person has a history of pain and tragedy that includes regret from the situation. At times, it's often hard to explain that pain to someone else. The challenge with a tragedy is the lack of support from someone.

This has often been my challenge when I try to explain what occurred to me. When I was younger, I was a victim of a tragic accident that changed my life both academically and emotionally. At sixteen months old, due to the neglect of my babysitter I fell off the bed. The injury was so severe that I was rushed to the emergency room and the doctors explained to my mom that I suffered from a blood clot (血块) located on the left side of the brain.

I was later diagnosed with what is known as a traumatic brain injury (外伤性脑损伤)．This accident affects my long term memory and testing ability. I often struggle with understanding information related to school and feel frustrated that I will not pass my tests. The pressure of school is so much, since I must always work harder than most students.

I become easily disappointed that I study a lot but often flunk or re-take tests. It is hard to imagine, because in my mind I feel prepared for the work; however, the test results do not connect with the information in my brain. Although I always don't pass my tests, I feel like this injury encourages me to work and shows me that I can be confident when it comes to the future. For example, I have been able to maintain my grades, been employed for over a year at a local restaurant, and obtained my driver's license. I look forward to attending college, getting married, raising a family, and being a success. I will continue to live my life to the fullest and prove that an injury does not limit my life journey.

2．任务型阅读

Observational Learning: To See Is to Know

A group of psychologists, led by Albert Bandura, developed social learning theory, which emphasizes the fact that much learning occurs in a social context. This kind of learning, which results simply from observing and imitating the behavior of others, is called observational learning. Observational learning helps people acquire proper behavior in their families and cultures. By watching others, we learn how to greet people, eat, laugh and tell jokes. Do you still remember your first few days in senior grade one? By watching others, you learned how people talked to each other, what clothes were "fashionable," and how to interact with instructors.

With modeling, you observe others' behaviors, and then none, some, or all of these behaviors may be learned and repeated, or modified. In one of Bandura's classic studies, children were divided into three groups: One group watched an adult beating up a Bobo doll, one group watched an adult ignoring the Bobo doll, and the third didn't see an adult at all. After being mildly frustrated by being placed in a room with toys, but not being allowed to play with some of them, all of the children were then placed in another room with a variety of toys, including a Bobo doll. Children in the first group tended to imitate what they had seen, mistreating the doll (and inventing new ways to abuse it).

Researchers have discovered that several characteristics of models can make learning through observation more effective. Not surprisingly, the more you pay attention to the model, the more you learn. You are more likely to pay attention if the model is an expert, is good looking, has high status, or is socially powerful. Second, by watching others, we learn about what behaviors are

appropriate for people like ourselves, so models who are seen as similar are more readily imitated. All students need to see successful, capable models who look and sound like them.

Then, as teachers, how can you apply observational learning? Here are a few guidelines. Above all, model the behaviors and attitudes you desire your students to learn. For example, show enthusiasm for the subject you teach. Be willing to demonstrate both the mental and the physical tasks you expect the students to perform. Second, use peers, especially class leaders, as models. For example, in group work, pair students who do well with those who are having difficulties. Third, you may seek the help of class leaders in modeling behaviors. Examples include letting high-status students lead an activity when you need class cooperation or when students are likely to be reluctant at first.

impacts；aggressive / violent / rude；likely；similar；teaching / education / instruction；desired / expected / target；Seeking

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍什么是观察学习，观察学习的应用，怎么将观察学习用于教学。

3．阅读下列短文，按照要求用英文回答问题。

After we all came to the conclusion that our family could responsibly care for dog; my husband and I started our search at a local animal shelter.

We discovered a medium-sized male dog named Duke. This dog was a approximately only two years old and seemed to have the sweetest character. He looked at us through intelligent eyes and already knew how to fetch a ball. My husband and I immediately adopted him Duke quickly fit into our family's lifestyle. And he quickly learned the tricks like "sit", and "come".

But there was one skill that Duke could not seem to grasp---that of a watchdog. My husband was trying to teach him to remind us by giving a single warning bark when someone came into the yard. Duke would listen carefully to my husband's commands, but would cock （竖起）his head to one side in confusion and disappointment as if to tell his master that he just didn't understand what my husband was asking him to do. My husband would give his "watch" command. Duke would stand up---muscles tightened in readiness, but would not have a clue as to what he was in readiness for.

One morning we heard the garbage collectors come up the driveway to get our garbage.

My husband went to the open bedroom window so Duke could hear and see the men through the screen.

"Watch" my husband commanded. Duke rose in readiness, looked at my husband as sudden comprehension dawned on him, gave a quick tail wave, and leaped through the window screen

jumping happily out to greet the garbage men.

Seeing that, I couldn't help laughing. My laughter did nothing for my husbands mood when he found what was happening and he just went away to repair the screen with no expression on his face.

（5）开放性试题。如何对待宠物？我认为人们应该爱他们的宠物，和他们一起玩，而不是虐待他们。

或者:我认为人们应该爱他们的宠物，把他们当作家庭成员。故答案为I think people should love their pets and have fun with them, instead of abusing them.Or: I think people should love their pets and treat them as the family members.

4．任务型阅读

The environmental group Heal the Bay organized a beach clean-up. And I was one of the volunteers. We went to Venice Beach to clean up the trash.

At first glance, the beach didn't look dirty at all. But then I saw a Styrofoam(泡沫)cup half buried in the sand on the beach. I pulled hard and finally got it out. As we moved farther, we found pieces of Styrofoam spread all over the sand. The Heal the Bay representative had told us that these little pieces of Styrofoam and other small pieces of plastic are what actually harm sea life most. Sea animals eat the plastic. After eating it, they think they are full. As a result, they can die of starvation as they are cheated by their feeling and don't think they need to eat any food. We kept on picking up the trash. Then I saw someone with a full Heal the Bay trash bag and I went to see what was inside. When I opened the trash bag, I found everything from a pair of old jeans and a brown belt to headphones and some plastic bags. It made me very angry with the people who left their things behind without thinking what effects they might have on the ocean. It is really important to protect the ocean. The ocean covers 70 percent of the Earth's surface. A clean ocean not only helps animals in the ocean survive but also helps us survive.

By noon, the sun was shining and the temperature was rising. The volunteers that had spread out across Venice Beach were coming back to throw the trash they had collected into the truck. I could not believe how much trash there was. All together we collected more than 135 bags of trash. I do hope that next time people go to the beach, they will stop littering.

（1）Why did the environmental group go to Venice Beach? (No more than 6 words)

（2）What does the underlined word "starvation" in Paragraph 2 mean in English?(1 word) （3）How did the author feel seeing the trash in that volunteer's trash bag according to Paragraph 3?(No more than 8 words)

（4）How much trash did the volunteer collect all together that day? (No more than 8 words) （5）What do you think of throwing plastic trash on the beach? And why? (No more than 25 words)

【答案】（1）To clean up the trash.

（2）Hunger

（3）He/She felt very angry.

（4）They collected more than 135bags of trash.

（5）It is a very bad habit, because trash thrown on the beach may end up in the sea, resulting in the death of many sea creatures.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。环保组织Heal the Bay组织了一次海滩清洁活动,作

者是志愿者之一。他们去了威尼斯海滩清理垃圾。在清理垃圾的过程中作者感触良多。（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“We went to Venice Beach to clean up the trash. ”可知环我们去了威尼斯海滩清理垃圾。所以答案为To clean up the trash。

5．阅读下列短文，按照要求用英文回答问题。

I was in the country, Vietnam, from 1970 to 1971. I was a nineteen-year-old soldier. Six months after my arrival, I stepped on a land mine and lost my right foot. Although it was a painful experience, I also felt great relief and happiness. I knew it meant my plane ticket home. So I had mixed feelings after the accident.

Back in the US, I was fitted with an artificial leg and I threw away my uniform and my Purple Heart. They had no value to me. They reminded me of what I wasn't proud of and I had one constant reminder: one artificial leg.

Twenty-six years later, I participated in a bicycle race in Vietnam, which was designed for Americans and veterans (老兵) and civilians of Vietnam. In the race I formed a connection with Tran, a veteran of the former North Vietnam. Like me, Tran had also lost his leg due to a mine. But unlike me, he had also lost some family members in the Americans' bombing. He said he used to be filled with hate for Americans.

One day, I heard that he had slipped in the race by accident, and that his leg was hurting him. I offered him some medicine to ease his pain. He gave me a "thumbs up". He smiled his big smile. And that was enough. We had a special connection. Although language was an obstacle to our communication, it didn't hinder us from conveying our friendship. In the race, we found that we could relax and enjoy each other's company, even without words.

During the race, I found his prosthesis (假肢) was not good, so I considered arranging a new prosthesis for him after returning home. And I invited him to visit my country. Joyfully, he agreed. When I returned home, I talked with my friend Jim, who owned the company where my prosthesis was made. I told him about Tran and why he should have a new prosthesis. Jim agreed. Later, Tran travelled to my country. We got Tran a new prosthetic leg. I was happy to give something to him—and in a way, to his country. At my daughters' school, he talked about forgiveness. Despite their country's loss, he found the place in his heart to forgive.

He is my friend, and I am happy that now our friendship will continue for the rest of our life.（1）Why did the author have mixed feelings after the accident? (no more than 10 words) （2）What does the underlined word in Paragraph 4 mean? (only 1 word)

（3）What did the author's friend, Jim, agree to do? (no more than 10 words)

（4）What was the change of Tran's feelings to Americans? (no more than 10 words)

（5）Why does the author say he and Tran will be friends for the rest of their life? Please give reasons in your own words. (no more than 20 words)

【答案】（1）Because although he was injured, he could returned home.

（2）Prevent.

（3）To make a new prosthesis for Tran for free.

（4）He turned hate to forgiveness.

（5）Open.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者去越南参加自行车比赛时，遇到了和他遭遇相似的越南老兵，他们心意相通，成为了朋友。作者回国后邀请Tran来美国并送给他新的假肢，他很感动，告诉作者他原谅了美国对他的伤害，作者觉得他们的友谊可以永远保持下去。

（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Although it was a painful experience, I also felt great relief and happiness. I knew it meant my plane ticket home. So I had mixed feelings after the accident.”可知，作者虽然腿受了伤，但这意味着他可以回家，所以他的心情即痛苦又开心。故本题答案为：Because although he was injured, he could return home.

（2）考查词义猜测。根据第四段中的“Although language was an obstacle to our communication, it didn't hinder us from conveying our friendship.”可知，尽管语言是他们交流的障碍，但这并不……他们传达友情。前后句为转折关系，故推测划线词的意思是“阻止”。故本题答案为：Prevent。

（3）考查细节理解。根据第五段中的“so I considered arranging a new prosthesis for him after returning home…When I returned home, I talked with my friend Jim, who owned the company where my prosthesis was made. I told him about Tran and why he should have a new prosthesis.”可知，作者回到美国后把想送给Tran新假肢的事情给朋友Jim说了，Jim对此想法表示赞同。故本题答案为：To make a new prosthesis for Tran for free.

（4）考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“He said he used to be filled with ha te for Americans.和倒数第二段的At my daughters' school, he talked about forgiveness.”可知，Tran对美国的态度由恨变为原谅。故本题答案为：He turned hate to forgiveness.

（5）考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“We had a special connection. Although language was

an obstacle to our communication, it didn't hinder us from conveying our friendship. In the race, we found that we could relax and enjoy each other's company, even without words.”；以及倒数第二段中的“I was happy to give something to him—and in a way, to his country. At my daughters' school, he talked about forgiveness. Despite their country's loss, he found the place in his heart to forgive.”可推测，作者认为他们之间的友谊可以继续延续下去是因为他们虽然语言不同却能正真理解对方，而且Tran也放下了对美国的仇恨。故本题答案可以围绕这方面展开。

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，要求考生准确掌握细节信息。并根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，从而写出正确答案。

6．Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.

Life is not easy when you are looking for something worthwhile and ready to learn from the best experiences. ________ Here are some life lessons which people will learn the hard way in majority of cases.

________However people usually get discouraged when it takes more time than they thought it would. At this time, people refer only to people who have already achieved what they want to do. Look at any successful person and you'll notice one thing common in all of them: they took time to learn and mastered their skill like no one else. There is no elevator to success and you have to take the stairs.

Be brave to take the road less traveled. In our whole life, we always want to follow the same path that everyone suggests, do the same thing everyone does, take the same career path everyone takes, wear the same clothes everyone wears, and hang out with the same people we work with. Why? Because we are scared to fail. But when you get bored of life, you realize that you are not meant to do what everyone does and that your destiny is different from anyone else's out there in the world. ________

You don't have to live your life in a way society wants you to. ________Parents sometimes force their children to select a career they don't want because other children have selected that career. Worst of all, people follow them without even asking. There is no harm in believing in old beliefs but when you pursue them before your interest, sooner or later you'll realize that you should first do what you think is right.

A. It takes continuous time and effort to be successful in any area.

B. The general rule goes that the harder you try, the greater results you get.

C. Many old beliefs are being performed these days and are followed blindly.

D. It always takes tests and then fails us to learn anything worthwhile.

E. However, in most circumstances your effort and attempt go well alongside with your desired achievement.

F. But the price we pay to realize this is high because it takes a great amount of courage to follow your own path.

【答案】 D；A；F；C

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了几个人生教训。

（1）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“ Life is not easy when you are looking for something worthwhile and ready to learn from the best experiences.”当你想追寻值得做的事情并准备学习最好的经验时，生活并不总是容易的，此处解释不容易的原因，D. It always takes tests and then fails us to learn anything worthwhile.“它总是考验我们，让我们通过失败来学习有价值的东西”，符合语境。故选D。

（2）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空后“However，people usually get discouraged when it takes more time than they thought it would.“然而，当人们花的时间比他们预想的长时，他们就会感到沮丧，此处讲的还是关于时间的话题，并与下文形成转折，A. It takes continuous time and effort to be successful in any area.”在任何领域取得成功都需要持续的时间和努力“，符合语境。故选A。

（3）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前”But when you get bored of life, you realize that you are not meant to do what everyone does and that your destiny is different from anyone else's out there in the world. “但当你对生活感到厌倦时，你就会意识到你并不是要做每个人都做的事，你的命运和世界上其他人的命运是不同的，此处承接这一话题，F项中的your own path与前面的"your destiny is different from anyone else's"相呼应，故F. But the price we pay to realize this is high because it takes a great amount of courage to follow your own path.”但我们为实现这一点所付出的代价是巨大的，因为走自己的路需要极大的勇气“符合语境。故选F。

（4）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空后”Parents sometimes force their children to select a career they don't want because other children have selected that career.“父母有时会强迫孩子选择自己不喜欢的专业就因为别的孩子选择了那个专业，这是对盲目跟风的举例说明，C. Many old beliefs are being performed these days and are followed blindly.许多旧习最近又开始风行，人们盲目地跟风”符合语境。故选C。

【点评】本题要求在理解细节信息的基础上，着重考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

7．阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

Seven years ago, my wife told our 6-year-old daughter about our wedding weekend. My wife had moved back home to spend the weekend with her family.

As I was tucking our daughter in (把女儿的被子掖好) later that night, she asked if she could "come home like mommy did" when she got married one day. (Hopefully, one day far off into the future...) I told her our house would always be open to her. She gave me a big hug and a kiss on the cheek. She was extremely happy.

After a few seconds, I could see her mind churning (思绪翻腾)—the happiness dissipated. She pushed her finger into my belly and told me in low spirits, "Your belly is too big and you are too fat. I don't know if you are going to make it."

I was shocked. It was true that my health had fallen into a huge decline in the previous five years as I was building Contegix. I had not thought of it as destroying a future with my family. A 6-year-old girl saw what I missed.

I decided to run a mile the next morning. I couldn't make it 1/4 mile. I didn't give up and went

out the next morning.

Seven years later, I have lost 60 pounds and regularly run ultra marathons. I attempted my first 100 miles last August, but I missed the terminal point at mile 87 after running on a torn hamstring (腿筋撕裂) for the previous 79 miles.

Yet, the most important distance I will ever go will be walking her down the aisle (结婚) one day. I would not make it if it hadn't been for the honesty and innocence of a 6-year-old.

（1）Why was the author's daughter happy? (no more than 15 words)

（2）What does the underlined word "dissipated" in Paragraph 3 mean? (one word)

（3）What happened to the author as he was building Contegix? (no more than 10 words) （4）What does the author regularly do seven years later? (no more than 5 words)

（5）What do you think of the author? Please explain. (no more than 25 words)

【答案】（1）Because she was told the house would be always open to her.

Or: Because the author told her their house would be always open to her.

（2）disappeared. /vanished.

（3）His health declined. /His health fell into a huge decline.

（4）He regularly runs ultra marathons.

Or: Running ultra marathons.

（5）He's a good father because he didn't want to disappoint his daughter and began to take care of his health (take exercise regularly) for his family.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者与女儿7年前的一段对话，是女儿所说的话让作者更加关注自己的健康并给了作者减肥的决心和动力，与此同时作者也不想让女儿失望。七年之后作者减掉了60磅，并参加了超级马拉松，由于腿筋撕裂，作者没有完成比赛，但作者很满足，作者认为最重要的距离是在女儿结婚时，陪女儿走过红地毯的距离。（1）考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“I told her our house would always be open to her. She gave me a big hug and a kiss on the cheek. She was extremely happy.”可知，作者的女儿快乐是因为作者告诉她他们家的门永远向她敞开。故填Because she was told the house would be always open to her. Or: Because the author told her their house would be always open to her.（2）考查词义猜测。根据第三段中的“She pushed her finger into my belly and told me in low spirits.”可知，女儿情绪变得低落，所以"dissipated"意思是Disappeared./Vanished (消失) 的意思，女儿的快乐了。故填disappeared./vanished.

（3）考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“It was true that my health had fallen into a huge decline in the previous five years as I was building Contegix.”可知，作者在建造Contegix时，作者的健康状况急剧下降。故填His health declined./His health fell into a huge decline.

（4）考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的“Seven years later, I have lost 60 pounds and regularly run ultra marathons.”可知，七年后，作者减掉了60磅，并定期参加超级马拉松比赛。故填He regularly runs ultra marathons.Or: Running ultra marathons.

（5）考查推理判断。短文叙述了作者与女儿的7年前的一段对话，是女儿所说的话让作

者更加关注自己的健康并给了作者减肥的决心和动力，与此同时作者不想让女儿失望。七年之后作者减掉了60磅，并参加了超级马拉松，由于腿筋撕裂，作者没有完成比赛，但作者很满足，作者认为最重要的距离是在女儿结婚时，陪女儿走过红地毯的距离。短文中充满了父亲对女儿的爱，对家庭的爱。所以作者是一个好父亲，因为他不想让女儿失望，所以他通过锻炼的方式使自己更健康，是为了女儿，也是为了这个家。故填He's a good father because he didn't want to disappoint his daughter and began to take care of his health ( take exercise regularly ) for his family.

There are different hues (色调) for blues, for instance. ________ Here we have presented a guide that will let you gain a deep insight about the colors.

Blue

________ For kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms it is an ideal choice. Of course it is also associated with sadness that means it may not strike note for each and everyone. It is a popular choice among people. Blue comes from the cold side of the color wheel, so it can make the room feel cold, unless and until it is south filling space. If you are attracted to blue color, think of going for purple, or mix red and purple.

Like blue, green is also a calm shade. ________ It is the shade that reflects nature and renewal. Green produces a positive energy without the feeling of overstimulation.

A. Colors can light up the mood of the room.

B. You can use it for a living room or a bedroom.

C. They won't create similar effect and atmosphere generally.

D. Traditionally, blue is just related to calmness and comfort.

E. It is better that you select colors that are very warm like blue.

F. Dark blue will really make you feel the wall appear near to you.

G. But before diving into any decision, here's what you need to know.

色”的相关知识，故选G。

（3）根据标题可知，本段主要讲述“蓝色”带给人的感受，故根据标题Blue可定位到D选项：传统上，蓝色只与平静和舒适有关。故选D。

（4）根据上文“Dark blue is best for a living room. Probably it is best reserved for high ceiling space.”可知本段主要讲“Dark blue”故可定位到F选项：深蓝色会让你觉得墙离你很近。故选F。

（5）根据后文“Green produces a positive energy without the feeling of overstimulation.”可知绿色产生一种积极的能量，没有过度刺激的感觉。故绿色适合客厅和卧室，故选B。

【点评】阅读理解七选五解题步骤

1）分析选项，串联主题：了解文章的主题、大意，会让解题的方向更明确。 2）研究空格前后，对比选项，选择答案。3）复读短文，核对答案：为了保证答案的正确性，一定要把答案代入原文，进行核对检查。

9．请注意阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。每个空格只填1个单词。 Most people have some regret that they just can't seem to get rid of. But holding on to regret about the past that can't be changed can have a bad impact on the possibility of a happy future. Regret is a waste of time, emotion and energy. To make sure that your life is a successful one, you need to take action to live in a way that you have no regret holding you back.

Some people make very big decisions with very little consideration at all, and as a result they often regret their decisions. Before choosing a college major, getting married or accepting a job, you must think about all conditions carefully and make a conscious decision rather than a careless one. Big decisions aren't the only ones that require forethought, though. Before you become angry and say something you will regret later, think about what you're going to say.

Some of things will be easy to do and some will be hard, but keep your eyes on the prize of living a successful life without regret, and you'll find that achieving your goals might be easier than you think. But don't just daydream about those goals—make an actual list, written down in black and white, and refer to it now and then to see what you have left to do.

When you're feeling happy and full of energy, taking care of yourself isn't a problem. But in those days when you feel like crawling beneath the bed and never coming out again, you still must take care of yourself. You can do what you want and don't get angry with yourself about your shortcomings. On the contrary, you just admit them and try to change them and move on. Improving your mental health is just as important as taking care of yourself physically.

Keep those who are important to you very close and be sure to let them know how important they are to you. Family, friends, co-workers and people who are as close as your families are your lifelines that you can depend on whenever you need them to help you remember what's important in life. You should make sure of repairing your relationships with your friends if

something bad happens.

Last but not least, learn to give yourself some relaxation and not to waste your time regretting things you cannot change. Treat those things properly and move on. Life is hard, but it is precious. Don't waste time regretting the past, or your future will get here before you know it.

10．Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.

Life on a Ship

We three children were very excited when we walked up the gangway (舷梯) of the British flagship China Star and saw officers, crew and staff rushing around. A Chinese housekeeper led the way and helped Uncle Jean and Aunt Reine with our luggage. Victor, Claudine and I lagged behind. The housekeeper was tall and thin and towered over everyone. ________ As we followed him down a narrow corridor towards our cabins, Victor whispered to me, "One thing about having no hair at all on your head, you always look neat!"

Though I was still feeling nervous and tongue-tied because it had only been three days since Aunt Reine took me out of St. Joseph's, I laughed out loud. That was the effect Victor had on people. ________ "Boys to the right and girls to the left," said Uncle Jean. Our two cabins were directly opposite each other. Inside, everything was neat, bare and clean. While Aunt Reine, Claudine and I were unpacking, there was a knock on the door.

Victor stood there, wearing a bright-red and orange life-jacket. "Why are you wearing that?" Claudine protested. "Our ship hasn't even sailed yet!" "In case the China Star starts going down. Then you'll really be sorry you're not wearing one yourself. Here! Let me show you something!" ________ Our cabin was below deck. Outside we could see nothing but deep dark water.

Claudine became alarmed. "Mama, how often does a ship sink?" she asked. Before Aunt Reine had time to reply, Victor quipped with a straight face, "Only once!" Aunt Reine and I could not help laughing in spite of ourselves. But then Victor did something my brothers would never have done. He took off his life-jacket, slipped it on his sister and showed her how to adjust the straps. ________ At night, our housekeeper brought in a tiny roll-out bed because there were three of us.

A. Once Victor hid in a lifeboat for half an hour while we searched everywhere.

B. His head was completely hairless, and he was obviously unsteady.

C. He and Claudine made me feel at ease as soon as I met them.

D. There were only two narrow twin beds in our cabin, each covered with dark blue sheets.

E. He parted the curtain and looked out of the round window of the ship.

F. He jumped out as we passed below him, scaring and delighting us at the same time.

【答案】 B；C；E；D

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，叙述了作者和另外两个小伙伴登上名为"China Star"的船之后的所见所闻以及个人感受。

（1）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“ The housekeeper was tall and thin and towered over everyone.”是对管家外表的介绍：又高又瘦；以及空后"One thing about having no hair at all on your head"可知，管家（the housekeeper）没有头发。故该句承接前文，依然要介绍管家的外貌，还要提到没头发这一点，故选B。

（2）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“ Though I was still feeling nervous and tongue-tied because it had only been three days since Aunt Reine took me out of St. Joseph's, I laughed out loud. That was the effect Victor had on people.”尽管作者仍然感到有点紧张，但是听了Victor说的话之后，也情不自禁地哈哈大笑。这就是Victor对他人的影响力。该空承接前文，仍然要提到作者的同伴带给他的感受， C. He and Claudine made me feel at ease as soon as I met them.“我一见到Victor和Claudine，他们就使我感到很舒服。”符合语境，古训啊C。

（3）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前Victor要让Claudine和作者看点东西。下句提到他们看到外面深而暗的水。那么该空就应该叙述Victor为了让他的同伴看到外面而做的举动，E. He parted the curtain and looked out of the round window of the ship.“他打开窗帘，向窗外看去。”承接上文，符合语境，故选E。

（4）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空后“ At night, our housekeeper brought in a tiny roll-out bed because there were three of us.”因为我们有三个人，所以管家拿来一张床。那么，前句应该提到床的问题，D. There were only two narrow twin beds in our cabin, each covered with dark blue sheets.“我们的小屋里只有两张窄的双人床，每一张都覆盖着深蓝色的床单。”承接下文，符合语境，故选D。

【点评】本题要求在理解细节信息的基础上，着重考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

11．Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.

College graduation eventually means taking much of your attention in your first job search. This process can be challenging, especially for those students who had thought very carefully about

their chosen major and their potential career path—or those who majored in a field not directly connected to a specific career he eventually got. If you are in one of these groups, fear not! ________

Some majors are tied directly to specific career fields. For example, if you wish to become a teacher, you will likely have needed to complete an education program and eventually sit for a licensing exam. The same applies to majors in nursing. If you did not complete an acceptable nursing program, you won't be able to take the nursing licensing exam. ________

Other majors, however, are closely related to career paths but don't necessarily require a degree in the area. For example, students who majored in finance, math, or statistics may also have the necessary skills to be hired as an accountant.

Hopefully, as a college student, you were able to do more than just attend classes and read your course books. Your non-academic experiences can be very influential on your future career as well. Did you work during college, volunteer, or participate in a club or organization?

________ If you volunteered with a non-profit organization such as a homeless or domestic violence shelter, seek out positions in social services related to case management or victim advocacy. You may qualify for a position regardless of your major.

Although it often seems like your college major alone determines your career fate, this just isn't the case. ________ If you don't know what career options to consider based on your major, talk to your faculty or academic advisor. You may be surprised at what opportunities await!

A. If so, and if you enjoyed these activities, seek out related careers.

B. In these cases, successfully completing a specific major is crucial to landing a job in the matching field.

C. Graduating from a university with an excellent major and practical ability will surely make you more competitive.

D. It may influence it, but there are other factors that influence your career options as well.

E. The more you learn about workforce market, the better you'll know the importance of a desired major.

F. Although your major and coursework are relevant to landing a job, they are not the only deciding factors.

【答案】 F；B；A；D

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇以论文，大学生毕业后找工作很具有挑战性。尤其是那些对所选专业及其可能选择的职业非常在意的学生，或者那些所学专业与他最终获得的具体职业没有直接联系的学生。尽管你所学的专业和课程与所找的工作有关，但并不是唯一的决定因素，决定你的职业不只是你大学所学的专业，还有其他因素也会影响你的职业选择。（1）考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。根据空前“ This process can be challenging, especially for those students who had thought very carefully about their chosen major and their potential career path—or those who majored in a field not directly connected to a specific career he eventually got.

to landing a job, they are not the only deciding factors.“尽管你的专业和课程与找工作有关，但它们并不是唯一的决定因素”符合题意，故选F。

In these cases, successfully completing a specific major is crucial to landing a job in the matching field.“在这些情况下，成功完成某个专业对于在匹配领域找到工作至关重要”与此段的意义也是一致的。可知B项符合题意，故选B。

（3）考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。前面两段内容"然而，其他专业与选择的职业密切相关，但不一定需要该领域的学位。你的非学术经历也会对你未来的职业生涯产生很大影响，如志愿者活动等。如果喜欢这些活动的话，可寻找与之相关的职业。" A. If so, and if you enjoyed these activities, seek out related careers.“如果是这样，如果你喜欢这些活动，寻找与之相关的职业”符合题意，故选A。

（4）考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。根据空前“ Although it often seems like your college major alone determines your career fate, this just isn't the case.”"虽然看起来你的大学专业似乎决定你的职业命运，但事实并非如此。"根据转折连词although可知，与你的专业无关的其他因素也会影响你的职业选择的。 D. It may influence it, but there are other factors that influence your career options as well.“它可能会影响你的职业选择，但也有其他因素会影响你的职业选择”符合题意，故选D。

13．任务型阅读

Nobody likes to think they are “that guy” at work.________. So, what are some of the rudest things that people do at work — and why shouldn't you do them?

Behaving in an unacceptable way

The most common form of this is eating smelly foods at lunchtime. Other things alike include body smell and its opposite, the wearing of strong perfume, messy desks, or bad breath.________.

Checking email on your phone when you're talking to other people

A recent survey shows that 49 percent of people said their bosses checked their phones while

talking with them.________. If you've ever wondered why your team members are unmotivated, this may be why. In fact, when you're talking to someone at work, you should reject any non-important calls.

________

Do you like the sound of your own voice? Great. Perhaps it's time you learned to like the sound of other people's voices too. If you interrupt others when they speak, they'll dislike you and discount whatever you're saying. And if you routinely take up three quarters of the meeting with your monologues（独角戏）, people will turn off and, quite rightly, start checking email on their phones. However, if you listen to what others say and show interest by asking intelligent questions, they'll love you and be likely to give you their support when you speak.

Showing off how much you earn

________. If you show off your income to someone and then discover you get less than them, you'll look like a fool. If you earn more, they'll feel tired of you. So keep them guessing and hide your earning power in quiet ways — like always paying for the team coffees.

A. Talking all the time

B. Being a good listener

C. Team-working can never be ignored

D. All these things will become part of your personal brand

E. It's better to be modest when you talk about your incomes
