【总评】2013年的英语试题题量略有增加，但客观题难度略有下降。试题更加贴近学生的生活，整体给人温暖清
新的感觉。如第一篇完型填空描述一名学生从落后到进步的过程；第二篇完型填空讲身体与情绪的关系。作文则是
要求学生写一封信，体现父母和子女的沟通。
试题也有很鲜明的时代特征，引导学生关注家事国事天下事。比如作文中的亲情和对环保的关注，而第二个作
文中书信又结合当今中国的环保现状和建设生态文明的目标。
几篇阅读题题材新颖，趣味性强，既有说明文，也有分析英国人为什么喜欢谈论天气的文化类文章，各种题型
搭配均匀，但压轴题最后一篇阅读的难度比往年略小。
总的来说，今年听力比较简单，语速适度，选材较广，仍以实际生活场景为背景。听力试题给出的信息也比较
明确，大部分考生都能听懂作答，得分相对容易。
不过，今年英语完型填空的单词数略有增加。往年文章的词数在300词左右，但今年两篇完形填空总共有380
个单词，这就对考生阅读速度提出了更高的要求。

A
The morning had been a disaster. My tooth was aching. And I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt:
“The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view?” I shook my
head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the
pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at
about lunchtime, I got lucky.
“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in.”
I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist
would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn’t he as busy as the others?
In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried.
The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.
第13页 | 共25页When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, “Don’t worry. The dentist is very good.”
“How long do I have to wait for him?” I asked impatiently.
“Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork,” the assistant said.
“The artwork?” I was puzzled.
The chair went back. Suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it: on the ceiling. How
considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words. 本解析为学科网名

The oldest known transport wheel was discovered in 2002 in Slovenia. It is over 5,100 years old. Evidence suggests
that wheels for transport didn’t become popular for a while, though. This could be because animals did a perfectly good job
of carrying farming tools and humans around.
But it could also be because of a difficult situation. While wheels need to roll on smooth surfaces, roads with smooth
surfaces weren’t going to be constructed until there was plenty of demand for them. Eventually, road surfaces did become
smoother, but this difficult situation appeared again a few centuries later. There had been no important changes in wheel
and vehicle design before the arrival of modem road design.
In the mid-1700s, a Frenchman came up with a new design of road—a base layer (层) of large stones covered with a
thin layer of smaller stones. A Scotsman improved on this design in the 1820s and a strong, lasting road surface became a
reality. At around the same lime, metal hubs (the central part of a wheel) came into being, followed by the pneumatic
tyre(充气轮胎) in 1846. Alloy wheels were invented in 1967, sixty years after the appearance of tarmacked roads (柏油路).
As wheel design took off, vehicles got faster and faster. 本解析为学科网名师解析团队原创，授权学科网独家使用，如

Not all bodies of water are so evidently alive as the Atlantic Ocean, an S-shaped body of water covering 33 million
square miles. The Atlantic has, in a sense, replaced the Mediterranean as the inland sea of Western civilization. Unlike real
inland seas, which seem strangely still, the Atlantic is rich in oceanic liveliness. It is perhaps not surprising that its vitality
has been much written about by ancient poets.
“Storm at Sea”, a short poem written around 700, is generally regarded as one of mankind’s earliest artistic
representations of the Atlantic.
When the wind is from the west
All the waves that cannot rest
To the east must thunder on
Where the bright tree of the sun
第19页 | 共25页Is rooted in the ocean’s breast.
As the poem suggests, the Atlantic is never dead and dull. It is an ocean that moves, impressively and endlessly. It
makes all kinds of noise—it is forever thundering, boiling, crashing, and whistling.
It is easy to imagine the Atlantic trying to draw breath—perhaps not so noticeably out in mid-ocean, but where it meets
land, its waters bathing up and down a sandy beach. It mimics(模仿) nearly perfectly the steady breathing of a living
creature. It is filled with symbiotic existences, too: unimaginable quantities of creatures, little and large alike, mix within its
depths in a kind of oceanic harmony, giving to the waters a feeling of heartbeat, a kind of sub-ocean vitality. And it has a
psychology. It has personalities: sometimes peaceful and pleasant, on rare occasions rough and wild; always it is strong and
striking.
68. Unlike real inland seas, the Atlantic Ocean is______.
A. always energetic解析为重庆名师何为原创，授权学科网独家使用，如有盗用，依法追责！
B. lacking in liveliness
C. shaped like a square
D. favored by ancient poets
69. What is the purpose of using the poem “Storm at Sea” in the passage?
A. To describe the movement of the waves.
B. To show the strength of the storm.
C. To represent the power of the ocean.
D. To prove the vastness of the sea.

It is widely known that any English conversation begins with The Weather. Such a fixation with the weather finds
expression in Dr. Johnson’s famous comment that “When two English meet, their first talk is of weather.” Though
Johnson’s observation is as accurate now as it was over two hundred years ago, most commentators fail to come up with a
convincing explanation for this English weather-speak.
Bill Bryson, for example, concludes that, as the English weather is not at all exciting, the obsession with it can hardly
be understood. He argues that “To an outsider, the most striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very
much of it.” Simply, the reason is that the unusual and unpredictable weather is almost unknown in the British Isles.
Jeremy Paxman, however, disagrees with Bryson, arguing that the English weather is by nature attractive. Bryson is
wrong, he says, because the English preference for the weather has nothing to do with the natural phenomena. “The interest
is less in the phenomena themselves, but in uncertainty.” According to him, the weather in England is very changeable and
uncertain and it attracts the English as well as the outsider.
Bryson and Paxman stand for common misconceptions about the weather-speak among the English. Both
commentators, somehow, are missing the point. The English weather conversation is not really about the weather at all.
第21页 | 共25页English weather-speak is a system of signs, which is developed to help the speakers overcome the natural reserve and
actually talk to each other. Everyone knows conversations starting with weather-speak are not requests for weather data.
Rather, they are routine greetings, conversation starters or the blank “fillers”. In other words, English weather-speak is a
means of social bonding.
72. The author mentions Dr. Johnson’s comment to show that______.
A. most commentators agree with Dr. Johnson
B. Dr. Johnson is famous for his weather observation
C. the comment was accurate two hundred years ago
D. English conversations usually start with the weather
73. What does the underlined word “obsession” most probably refer to?
A. A social trend. 本解析为学科网名师解析团队原创，授权学科网独家使用，如有盗用，依法追责！B. An
emotional state.
C. A historical concept.
D. An unknown phenomenon.
74. According to the passage, Jeremy Paxman believes that______.
A. Bill Bryson has little knowledge of the weather
B. there is nothing special about the English weather
C. the English weather attracts people to the British Isles
D. English people talk about the weather for its uncertainty
75. What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?
A. To explain what English weather-speak is about.
B. To analyse misconceptions about the English weather.
C. To find fault with both Bill Bryson and Jeremy Paxman.
D. To convince people that the English weather is changeable.
