Dear Mom and Dad, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to you for your many years of selfless love and support. I want to let you know how much I love you and how much I appreciate all that you have given me. You support me not only materially but also spiritually. You have always encouraged me no matter how hard the endeavor. When I succeed, both of you are more excited than me, and you never stop motivating me to do better. When I fail, you always encourage me not to give up. Your encouragement is the best incentive for me to move on. Your selfless contribution made it possible for me to pass the college entrance examination with a high score. I cherish the familial affection you have shown me. I will study hard to be a useful person and won’t disappoint you. Love, Jenny

试题解析

【话题分类】科技

【文章大意】无线电子设备如iPad 正在越来越多地被应用到医院的诊疗当中，甚至医学院的课程当中，研究显示这些设备的应用有助于改善医生的工作环境，患者也容易了解自己的病情。

【答案解析】

26. G) growing。此空为名词popularity 的限定词，应是一个带有形容词性质的词汇，备选项A，G，L，N中只有G 项growing 符合题意。本句意为：电子医疗记录普及率越来越高。

27. A) dependent。此空为hospital-based doctors 的表语，且后面与介词on 搭配，在备选项A，L，N 中只有A 项dependent 符合题意。短语be dependent on sth. 意为：依赖。此处意思是医院里的医生一天到晚

依赖电脑。

28. C) fast。此句有一个插入语which keep doctors from besides，其主语为desktops，谓语为give away，用了现在进行时。故此空是修饰谓语的，应为副词。备选项C 和K 中，C 项fast 符合题意。此句意思是让医生离开病床的台式机在很快让位于无线设备。

29. F) give。此空为动词原形和had to 搭配。备选项F 项give 符合题意。此句意思是随着日常事务的增加，有些事还必须得办。

30. H) launch。此空为a pilot project 的谓语，且前面和helped 动词搭配，应为动词原形。只有备选项H 项launch 符合题意。launch a pilot project 意为：开展实验项目。

31. N) successful。此空为The experiment 的表语，且为so…that…句型的一部分，B，D，E，L，N 中只有N 项successful 符合题意，意思是实验如此成功，以至于……。

32. I) policy。此空为名词，作adopted 的宾语。在备选项I，J，M，O 当中，和adopted 搭配且符合题意的为选项I 项policy，意为：采取相同的策略/ 做法。

33. B) designed。此空为lab coats 的后置定语，其后为pockets。因此，lab coats designed with pockets 符合题意，此句中designed 为过去分词表示被动。

34. O) treatments。此空需要一个和tests 并列的名词，作got 的宾语。只有备选项O 项treatments 符合题意。tests and treatments 意为：检查和治疗。

35. E) gained。此空为patients 的谓语，后面和a better understanding 搭配，且时态应为过去时。因此备选项E 项gained 在语法和意义上与其搭配，意为：有更好的理解。Section B

【话题分类】文学与艺术

【文章大意】本文介绍了《十大黄金法则——论希腊哲学的古老智慧对美好生活的影响》这本书所传达的古希腊智慧对幸福生活的正面影响，如：审视自己的生活，不要担心自己无法控制的事情，追求真正的快乐，帮助他人等。

【考核技能】综合能力

36. According to an ancient Greek philosopher, it is impossible for us to understand every aspect of our life.

【正确答案】D

【答案解析】题干大意为：根据古希腊哲学家，我们不可能理解生活的每一面。原文D 段提到：There is a larger plan in life. You are not really going to be able to understand all of the dimensions of this plan（生活有个更大的规划，?你不可能真正了解这个规划的所有方面），题干是对该句的同义转换，故本题匹配D段。

37. Ancient Philosophers saw life in a different light from people of today.

【正确答案】B

【答案解析】题干大意为：古代哲学家看待生活跟现代人不同。根据原文B 段最后一句：The nice thing about ancient philosophy as offered by the Greeks is that they tended to see life clear and whole, in a way that we tend not to see life today（好事是，希腊人的古代哲学总是以清晰、完整的思路看待生活，而我们当代人并不这么看生活）。题干与本句意思相符，故本题对应B 段。

38. Not all your business partners are your soul mates.

【正确答案】F

【答案解析】题干大意为：并非所有的生意伙伴都是你的精神伴侣。根据原文F 段的描述：Just because I have a business relationship with an individual and I can profit from that relationship, it does not necessarily mean that this person is my friend（仅仅因为我跟某人有生意上的关系，并能从这段关系中受益，并不一定意味着这个人就是我的朋友），即并非所有的生意伙伴都能发展为真正的友谊，所以本题选 F 段。

39. We can live a peaceful life despite the various challenges of the modern world.

【正确答案】A

【答案解析】题干大意为：尽管现代社会充斥着各种挑战，我们仍然可以过上和平的生活。原文开篇A

段就对此提出问题：Is it possible to enjoy a peaceful life in a world that is increasingly challenged by threats and uncertainties from wars, terrorism, economic crises and a widespread outbreak of infectious diseases（有可能在这样一个世界过上和平的生活吗？这个世界日益受到各种威胁和不确定性的挑战：战争、恐怖主义、经济危机和传染病的蔓延性的爆发）。作者的回答是肯定的：The answer is yes。所以本题选 A 段。

40. The doer of a good deed can feel spiritually rewarded even when they gain no concrete benefits.

【正确答案】L

【答案解析】根据题干中的关键信息：The doer of a good deed 和concrete benefits 可将答案定位至原文L 段：Even if there is no concrete benefit paid in response to your good deed, at the very least, the doer of the good deed has the opportunity to enjoy a kind of spiritually enlightened moment（尽管对你的善行没有具体的回报，但至少，行善之人有机会享受到一种精神受到启发的时刻），所以L 段符合本题。

41. How to achieve mental calmness and contentment is well worth our consideration today.

【正确答案】H

【答案解析】根据题干中的关键信息：mental，calmness，contentment 和consider 可将答案定位至原文H 段：This is something that is very much well worth considering here in the modern era（这是很值得现代人考虑的事情）。接着作者认为我们没有花足够的时间去专注获得一种安宁，一种心灵和精神的满足感。所以本题与H 段相匹配。

42. Michael Soupios suggests that we should stop and think carefully about our priorities in life. 【正确答案】C

【答案解析】根据题干中的关键信息：Michael Soupios，stop，think 和priorities 等词，可将答案定位到原文C 段最后一句：stop and reflect about things like our priorities, our values, and our relationships（停下来并反思下我们的当务之急、价值观和关系等此类事情），题干的think carefully 对应原文的reflect，故本题选 C 段。

43. Ancient philosophers strongly advise that we do good.

【正确答案】K

【答案解析】根据题干关键词do good 可将答案定位到副标题为Do good to others 的段落。本题题干大意是：古代哲学家强烈建议我们行善事。在此部分的K 段第一句提到：ancient wisdom urges us to do good（古老智慧竭力主张我们行善事），很显然，本题与K 段相匹配。

44. The wise teachings of ancient Greek thinkers are timeless, and are applicable to contemporary life.

【正确答案】B

【答案解析】本题题干大意为：古希腊哲学家的智慧教义是无限的，并同样适用于当代的生活。由题干关键词timeless 可将答案定位到原文 B 段的第一句：The wisdom of the ancient Greek philosophers is timeless（古希腊哲学家的智慧是无限的），第二句：it is as relevant today as when it was first written many centuries ago（它在今天和在数世纪以前第一次写出时一样的中肯），所以本题匹配B 段。

45. Do harm to others and you do harm to yourself.

【正确答案】J

【答案解析】本题题干大意为：伤人伤己。根据原文L 段：when you hurt another human being, you hurt yourself（当你伤害他人时，你也伤害了自己）。题干的do harm to 与原文的hurt 同义，所以本题与J 段匹配。

Section C

Passage One

【话题分类】科技

【话题分类】价值观念

【文章大意】本文针对无人驾驶汽车进行了讨论，调查证明对无人驾驶汽车态度的不同跟年龄关系不大，学历、地域等因素会对其产生影响。

46.【正确答案】D

【答案解析】根据原文第一段首句：Attitudes toward new technologies often fall along generational lines（对待新科技的态度往往沿着年龄线而分），即不同的年龄群体对待新科技的反应不同，所以本题D 项正确。

47. 【正确答案】A

【考核技能】态度信息

【答案解析】原文第二段提到：When you look at attitudes toward driverless cars, there doesn’t seem to be a clear generational divide（对待无人驾驶汽车的态度，似乎并没有很明显的年龄划分），这与A 项表达完全相符，所以本题选A。

48. 【正确答案】B

【考核技能】缘由结果

【答案解析】本题问为什么无人驾驶汽车受到老年人的欢迎，原文第四段对此给出了解释：Older adults, especially those with limited mobility or difficulty driving on their own, are one of the classic use cases for driverless cars（尤其对那些行动受限或者自己开车困难的老年人而言，他们会是无人驾驶汽车的经典用户），B 项符合原文的解释，故选B。

49. 【正确答案】A

【考核技能】缘由结果

【答案解析】本题问什么原因最可能影响对待无人驾驶汽车的态度；原文第六段和第七段概述了影响无人驾驶汽车的态度：第六段提到了教育程度；而第七段提到的是：Where a person lives matters, too（一个人住哪里也会有影响）。选项中A 项符合其中一个因素，所以本题选A。

50. 【正确答案】C

【考核技能】主要人物

【答案解析】根据答案顺序原则，可将答案优先定位至尾段，根据最后一句：Once driverless cars are actually available for sale, the early adopters will be the people who can afford to buy them（一旦无人驾驶汽车真的上市，那么早期的购买者会是那些有支付能力的人），故本题C 选项The wealthy（富人）正确。

Passage Two

【话题分类】健康

【文章大意】本篇文章主要讲述了工业革命前后人们饮食习惯的不同，工业化之前的饮食习惯是全部家庭成员一起吃。随着工业化的出现，不仅食品数量、品种变得越来越丰富，也更加有营养。

51.【正确答案】C

【考核技能】主旨大意

【答案解析】由题干中的关键词pre-industrial Europe 可将答案定位至第一段。根据Ken Albala 对这一段时期生活的描述（you’d want to wake up early, start working with the sunrise, have a break to have the largest meal, and then you’d go back to work. Later, at 5 or 6, you’d have a smaller supper）可推知，人们根据自然规律调整饮食作息，故选C。

52.【正确答案】B

【考核技能】观点意见

【答案解析】由题干的关键词Professor Carole Counihan，?以及所描述的时期?pre-industrial Europe。由此可将答案定位在文章第二段。Carole Counihan 说：Meals are the foundation of the family（饭是家庭的基石）。B 项是对原文的转述。

53.【正确答案】D

【答案解析】第三段提到：Since industrialization, maintaining such a slow cultural metabolism has been much harder（自从工业化以来，保持这样一种慢的“文化代谢”非常困难），下面进一步补充：with the long midday meal shrinking to whatever could be stuffed into a lunch bucket or bought at a food stand（午餐的用餐习惯变成了吃盒饭或到食品摊上买着吃），由此可知cultural metabolism 指的是生活节奏，故选D。

54.【正确答案】B

【考核技能】观点意见

【答案解析】第三段提到：Modern techniques for producing and shipping food led to greater variety and quantity, including a tremendous increase in the amount of animal protein and dairy products available, making us more vigorous than our ancestors（由现代技术生产和运输的食物，品种多样，数量增加，动物蛋白和乳制品丰富，使得我们与祖先相比，更有活力），由此可知现代科技提供了品种多样、数量充足、有营养的食物，人们的饮食发生了变化，B 项是对原文的概括。

55.【正确答案】A

【考核技能】观点意见

【答案解析】根据题干的关键词Italians of the old day 可将答案锁定在最后一段，文中提到：but it was also a joy to prepare and eat，由此可知人们喜欢做饭的过程也喜欢吃饭，故推知答案为A。

I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salescler k fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed. Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise.

Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back.

2015年高考全国卷2英语试题 第Ⅰ卷 第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分） A My color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed. Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set. When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my first, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the sit is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble. 21. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?
