【解析】
【详解】句意：—杰克在哪里？我找不到他。—看！他在那边。
考查人称代词。me我；you你；him他；her她；根据文中的Jack及He可知，这里指代的是男性，find是
动词，后面要接宾语，宾语用宾格充当，故选C。
【点睛】英语中人称代词分为主格和宾格。主格做主语，宾格做宾语，所以做题要理解句子结构，分析在
句中的成分，本题代词做宾语，所以用宾格。
2.I went to Tian’anmen Square with my friends National Day.
A. in B. on C. at D. from
【答案】B
【解析】

的是“在国庆节”，是指具体的某一天，英语中具体到某一天要用介词on，故选B。
【点睛】时间介词in，at，on的用法要注意区别。口诀为：时间长的要用in，年代、季节和月份；具体某
天要用on，几月几号，星期几；时间点时用at，包括noon和night；上下午晚上很特殊，单独出现要用
in，具体描述要用on。

折就用but，如果是选择关系，就用or。

ed，故选C。
【点睛】动词时态的选择要根据时间标志词来判断，不同的时间标志词代表着不同的时态。本题中in 2016
是过去时的标志词，所以动词用过去时。

【点睛】英语中在条件状语从句和时间状语从句中一般会用到“主将从现”的用法。即主句用将来时，结
构是will+动词原形；从句用一般现在时，结构是动词原形或三单形式；做题要根据从句主语判断用原形还
是三单。

被动语态，而句中的时间是last month，所以要用一般过去时的被动语态，故选D。
【点睛】英语中被动语态的用法要注意。首先确定句子主语和动词之间是被动关系，然后再根据句中的时
间判断用哪个时态的被动结构。

C. why did you like photography D. why you liked photography
【答案】B

句语序排除A/ C选项，再根据句中的makes可知，这里应该用现在时，排除D选项，故选B。
【点睛】英语中宾语从句 的考题做题时要注意。可以分三步走。第一步：确定引导词。根据句意理解来确
定用哪个词引导；第二步，看语序。根据“宾语从句必须用陈述句语序”的原则来排除一部分答案，比如
本题中A/ C答案可直接排除；第三步，看时态。根据“主现从不限，主过从必过”的原则确定从句时态，
但要排除从句表达客观事实或者真理时只用现在时；利用这三点即可确定选项答案。

Misadventure in English
Last week, our forum ( 论 坛 ) asked if you had any funny or strange stories about using
English. Here are some of our favourite posts.
When I first visited New York, I went to a shopping centre. I asked a lady where the shoes
were. She said they were on the first floor. I went upstairs. But I couldn’t find any. I thought
she gave me the wrong information. Then, I realized that the first floor was the ground floor.

I went to a summer school in Manchester. One day, the head master told us that our
English teacher Maggie couldn’t teach that day because she had a frog in her throat. Why did
she eat a frog? Then I learned that it means someone’s throat is dry or blocked. How funny!
Yancy 135
My British penfriend once told me that his grandfather was “wicked (邪恶的)”. But when
I met his grandfather, I liked him a lot. I found it very strange. Why did my friend use a bad
word about such a nice man? Guess what? When speaking informally, “wicked” means “very
nice”.

Dog’s Best Friend
Jarrett Little was road testing his mountain bike outside of Columbus, Georgia, when his riding partner, Chris
Dixon, stopped suddenly. Something nearby moving among the trees had caught her attention. It turned out to be a
sandy-colored five-month-old dog.
“He was really thin, and had a broken leg,” Little told CBS News. The cyclists fed the friendly dog and shared
their water. They also quickly realized that the dog was coming with them, although they had no idea how. They
were more than seven miles from downtown and riding bikes. “We couldn’t leave him,” Little said. “Out there next
to the Oxbow Meadows, he was going to end up as alligator (短吻鳄) food.”
Little, a 31-year-old business owner, had an idea. He carefully picked up his new friend and put the 38-pound
dog’s back legs into the pockets of his cycling shirt. Then he placed the dog’s front legs over his shoulders.
“He was hurt, so he wasn’t trying to fight,” Little says. “He was also happy that we were there, touching him,
and hadn’t taken off on him.”
Their 30-minute ride into town ended at a bike store, where they got more water and food for the dog. “That
was when Andrea Shaw, a company worker, happened by. The dog went straight to her, smelling and “loving on
her,” says Dixon. Shaw was touched and, after learning what had happened, decided to keep the dog.
Shaw called him Columbo after the town where they’d met and planned an operation on his leg. Today,
Columbo is living the high life on a farm with a horse and a six-year-old boy to keep him company. As Dixon
said, “He is really the luckiest dog alive.”
24. Why did Dixon stop suddenly during the road testing?
A. She noticed something moving among the trees.
B. She had cycled seven miles and wanted to rest.
C. She met some other riding partners by chance.
D. She wanted to share some water with Little.
25. What can we learn about the dog?
A. He is unfriendly to people.
B. He is kept happily on a farm.
C. He weighed about 31 pounds.
D. He ended up as alligator food.

An example of VR technology
Have you ever wanted to sing on stage with Taylor Swift, or go to Mars? With the rise of virtual reality (虚拟
现实), you might be able to do these things without even leaving your home. Unlike real reality, virtual reality
means completely imaginary worlds, using high-performance computers and special glasses and gloves.Virtual Reality (VR) has been with us for many years – at least as an idea. Although it’s hard to tell the father
of this amazing technology, history suggests that it could have been the fruit of not one but five key people. First,
Morton Heilig introduced users to 3D films. Then, there’s Jaron Lanier, the first person to use the term “Visual
Reality”. Douglas Engelbart invented the computer mouse. Ivan Sutherland is the inventor of the first HMD and
Myron Krueger, the audio wiz. Thanks to these inventors, the technology has now come of age. Users can virtually
experience things they could only dream of. Virtual reality is changing the way we communicate experiences in the
same way the Internet has changed the way we communicate information. Indeed, VR has become a worldwide
reality, with different types of applications ( 应 用 ) from computer games to medicine, engineering, scientific
research, and so on. For example, medical learners are able to train through VR in order to deal with all kinds of
injuries. Designers can check every corner of their buildings and make preparations. And if you are heading to
Mars, a trip in virtual reality can help you “see” what you will find before you get there.
One recent example was a doctor who practiced an operation on a little baby’s heart. This enabled him to plan
out his surgery ahead of time, and helped to save the baby.
VR will make the world even smaller than it is now. It’s definitely going to bring us closer together. Like any
technology, however, virtual reality has its negative effects. The first big danger is disconnection from the real
world. Apart from this, too much use of VR equipment can create obvious physical and even mental (精神的)
dangers. Loss of one’s sense of direction and position, sea sickness and headaches are among the signs of illness
some experience after using virtual-reality equipment for long periods.
This is an ongoing topic that people are arguing about.
27. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that .
A. VR is the result of a series of inventions and ideas
B. VR is changing the way we communicate information
C. it has taken many years to come up with the idea of VR
D. it is likely to discover what people dream about with VR
28. According to the passage, VR can be used to .
A. connect with real reality well
B. observe other planets in space
C. help doctors practice operations
D. build houses without preparations
29. The writer probably agrees that .A. VR is a door to the real world
B. VR is like a coin with two sides
C. VR is responsible for increasing mental problems
D. it is easier to communicate information through VR
30. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. To keep it or to lose it?
B. How can you imagine?
C. Have you ever wanted?
D. To agree or to disagree?
【答案】27. A 28. C 29. B 30. C
【解析】
本文讲述虚拟现实的意义及其负面影响。
【27题详解】
段意归纳题。根据文中第二段的描述及段首Virtual Reality (VR) has been with us for many years-at least as an
idea. Although it’s hard to tell the father of this amazing technology, history suggests that it could have been the
fruit of not one but five key people.可知，这里主要讲述的是有关虚拟现实的想法和发明，故选A。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据文中One recent example was a doctor who practiced an operation on a little baby’s heart. This
enabled him to plan out his surgery ahead of time, and helped to save the baby.可知，虚拟现实被用于医学方面，
故选C。
【29题详解】
推断题。根据文中 VR will make the world even smaller than it is now. It’s definitely going to bring us closer
together. Like any technology, however, virtual reality has its negative effects.可知，虚拟现实既有好处也有坏处，
具体两面性，故选B。
【30题详解】
最佳标题题。根据文章Have you ever wanted to sing on stage with Taylor Swift, or go to Mars? With the rise of
virtual reality (虚拟现实), you might be able to do these things without even leaving your home. 你想和泰勒·斯威
夫特一起在舞台上唱歌，还是去火星？随着虚拟现实（virtual reality）的兴起，你甚至可以不用离开家就可
以做这些事情。可知主要是讲述人们对虚拟现实的一个态度，是否有想过，故选C。
D
Most of us fear failure. However, without failure, progress would be impossible. In fact, the word successcomes from the Latin succedere, meaning “to come after.” And what does success usually come after? Failure. It
seems that one cannot exist without the other.
Every failure – even the worst ones – helps us learn to do things differently in the future. “Learning from the
past mistakes and making changes helped me to reach the top of Everest successfully,” says mountaineer Pete
Athans, who has now reached the world’s highest peak (山峰) seven times. Failure also reminds us that things
can go wrong – sometimes with terrible results.
Austrian Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner is the first woman to reach the top of all 14 of the world’s 8,000-meter peaks
without extra oxygen (氧气). In 2007, while climbing in Nepal, she was in an avalanche ( 雪 崩 ). She survived, but
two nearby Spanish climbers died. The experience taught Kaltenbrunner that no matter how prepared a person is,
bad things can still happen. But Kaltenbrunner decided she had to learn from her experience and move on.
Accepting failure is not easy for many, though. We are often reluctant to tell people that we are failures
because our good name depends on success. However, things are slowly changing. In the past ten years, some
scientific magazines – mostly in medicine – have published reports of failed experiments. The belief is that the
science community can also learn from “negative” results and that this can finally lead to positive outcomes.
The business world already understands the value of negative results. Eli Lilly and Company has failure
parties to study data about medicine that doesn’t work. In fact, one of the business world’s most famous failures
became one of its biggest successes. In the early 1990s, Apple Corporation created the Apple Newton. It was one of
Apple’s biggest failures. However, Apple’s CEO, Steve Jobs, believed the product had potential (潜力) and he
began to improve it. In time, this led to the creation of the iPhone and the iPad, two of the company’s most
successful products.
The story of the Apple Newton can teach us another important lesson about failure. There is a lot we can learn
by studying mistakes. Perhaps the most important lesson is that failure and success are two sides of the same coin.
One truly cannot exist without the other.
31. The writer writes Paragraph 2 and 3 mainly to .
A. show how bad things can become important lessons
B. tell us that it’s possible for anyone to be successful
C. prove how bad things can happen in any situation
D. teach us what not to do when climbing mountains
32. The underlined word “reluctant” in Paragraph 4 probably means “ ”.
A. unable B. unsure C. unwilling D. uninterested33. What is the passage mainly about?
A. An attitude towards failure.
B. The experience of success.
C. A difficult way to success.
D. The rewards of failure.
【答案】31. A 32. C 33. D
【解析】
文章主要讲述得是失败是成功的必经之路，人们不应该害怕失败，而是要从失败中吸取教训，并且举例说
明失败是成功之母。
【31题详解】
推理题。文章第二，三段主要讲述的是“Every failure-even the worst ones – helps us learn to do things
differently in the future”. 每一次失败——即使是最糟糕的失败——都会帮助我们学会在未来以不同的方式做
事。并且举例登山者Pete Athans的亲身经历，故选A。
【32题详解】
词义猜测题。unable不能；unsure不确定；unwilling不愿意；uninterested不感兴趣；根据后句“because our
good name depends on success”因为我们的好名声取决于成功，可知，人们不愿意告诉别人自己的失败，所
以reluctant指的是“不愿意”，故选C。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。整篇文章主要讲述的是我们很多人都害怕面对失败，但是没有失败，就不可能取得进展。只
有通过一次次的失败，才能从中总结经验教训，才能一点点的成功，也就是失败给我们的回报，故选D。

Chinese Fancy Knots
Chinese Fancy Knot
Chinese fancy knots, also called Chinese knots, refer to the traditional decorative knots in Chinese culture.
They began as a form of traditional art in the Tang and Song Dynasties in China, and became popular in the MingDynasty. Long ago, they found their way to Japan and other Southeast Asian countries, and were well received
there. Now they are taken as one of the most classic symbols (标志) of Chinese culture.
As for the name itself, it is surely meaningful. The Chinese word for “knot”, jie, means “connection”. It is
related to lots of cultural ideas – marriage, brotherhood, reunion, etc. Meanwhile, the pronunciation of the Chinese
word jie is very close to that of ji, “good luck”. As a result, Chinese knots perfectly serve as a way to express
people’s strong wishes for good things like joy, love and good luck.
Besides, the knots, widely existing in the everyday life of the Chinese culture, come in different sizes. Small
ones are connected to jewellery (珠宝), clothes, gift-packages and furniture in order to attract people’s attention,
while large ones are used to decorate a living room or study. Whether large or small, there are over a dozen basic
knot patterns ( 图 案 ), named according to their shapes, usages or origins. For example, Double Coin Knots are
called shuangqian Jie because they are in the shape of two ancient Chinese coins, meaning “good things come in
pairs”. However, almost all the main styles of Chinese fancy knots are made up of two exactly similar parts, and the
patterns on the front and the back sides are also similar in every detail.
In addition, Chinese knots are famous for their bright colours. Each of the Chinese knots is made of a single
string of cotton, silk, gold or silver. But the colours of the strings are rich and have different traditional cultural
meanings. Among the most commonly used base colours, red means good luck and happiness, green means health,
and yellow, which was once known as a emperor’s colour, may means wealth and honour.
In brief, the famous Chinese fancy knots fully reflect (反映) the depth of Chinese culture. These brightly
coloured knots of different patterns, with their endless chains of knots, mean that life on earth will continue forever.
