M:Okay.
Text 2
W:Hi, Stephen, guess who I saw at the city library? Andy Clarks—the leading actor in The Good
Lawyer—the famous TV series.
M:What was he doing there? His popularity has slipped since the final season of the show.
Text 3
W:It seems as if everybody is talking about Jason’s retirement.
M:Yes, his office is filled with gifts.I gave him a Tshirt with a baseball pattern on it.
W:That’s nice.I’ll get him something this afternoon.Hope it’s not late.
Text 4
W:Did you go to Cooper’s last night?
M:No, was there anything special?

card.
M:That was interesting.
Text 5
W:Oh, the road is jammed with traffic again.We are going to be late for work.
M:Let’s make a Uturn at the next crossroads and try another way.

W:Do you think Janet could make it?
M:I’m sure she can.Have you tried calling her?

M:Welcome to our program, Miss Johnson.Congratulations on winning the Teacher of the Year
award.
W:Thank you, Peter.I’m more than happy to be here.
M:What inspired you to be a teacher, Miss Johnson?
W:Well, I’ve always loved to learn, but I’ve enjoyed teaching others even more.It’s in the
family.
M:Could you tell us what the best part about your job is?

W:Um...Not sure yet.Right now, I enjoy getting my meals cooked for me every day.
M:Do you pay a contribution to the house?

what are you doing tomorrow?” “Where?” “With whom?” The same questions every
day.
M:Moms are like that.They ask because they care.You’ve got to be patient with them.My
parents ask those questions too, but I may not move out soon.The thought of leaving them fills me

workshop this afternoon on how to motivate employees.Are you interested?
W:Sure.I was promoted to the position of manager a few months ago.And I have to manage a
staff of 12 people.It can be quite a difficult situation sometimes.That’s why I am here today.
M:Same here.I only have seven people reporting to me.Yet, sometimes I feel like pulling my hair
out.I need to find a way to create harmony within my department.
Text 10
W:Welcome to Star Fitness Club.I’m Tina Harrison.Before you start, I’d like to offer you
some tips.We all know that regular exercise is important, but few of us know how to exercise
properly.I’ve seen many people make the same workout mistakes in this place.One mistake
people often make is sticking to the same routine.It is not good for building up your muscles.I’d
like to suggest that you change your routine every other month.What’s more, you can try different
kinds of workouts, such as jogging, biking, or swimming.This can help keep your whole body inshape.Another mistake most people make is to work out intensely almost every day.You need to
give your body a break, and allow time for the muscles to grow.It is not the harder the better.Two
hard workout days every week is enough.If you really hate to skip a day, you can plan easy
exercises on other days.However, experts’ suggestion is that you take one day off completely each
week.

Live with roommates? Have friends and family around you? Chances are that if you’re
looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone around you will be ready to jump on that
bandwagon.
I experienced this when I started switching to a zero waste lifestyle five years ago, as I was
living with my parents, and I continue to experience this with my husband, as he is not completely
zero waste like me.I’ve learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you’ll find
encouraging if you’re doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a notalways-
supportive household.
Zero waste was a radical lifestyle movement a few years back.I remember showing my parents
a video of Bea Johnson, sharing how cool I thought it would be to buy groceries with jars, and have
so little trash! A few days later, I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries, and my dad
commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere.It came off as a bit discouraging.
Yet as the months of reducing waste continued, I did what I could that was within my own
reach.I had my own bedroom, so I worked on removing things I didn’t need.Since I had my own
toiletries (洗漱用品), I was able to start personalising my routine to be more sustainable.I also
offered to cook every so often, so I portioned out a bit of the cupboard for my own zero waste
groceries.Perhaps your household won’t entirely make the switch, but you may have some control
over your own personal spaces to make the changes you desire.
As you make your lifestyle changes, you may find yourself wanting to speak up for yourself if
others comment on what you’re doing, which can turn itself into a whole household debate.If youhave individuals who are not on board, your words probably won’t do much and can often leave
you feeling more discouraged.
So here is my advice:Lead by action.
24.What do the underlined words “jump on that bandwagon” mean in the first paragraph?
A.Share an apartment with you.
B.Join you in what you’re doing.
C.Transform your way of living.
D.Help you to make the decision.
答案 B
解析 词义猜测题。根据画线部分所在句及第二段中的“I continue to experience this with my
husband,as he is not completely zero waste like me”可知,画线词组所在句表示“如果你想
过一种更可持续的生活,可能并不是你周围的每个人都愿意加入这一运动”。故画线词组与
Join you in what you’re doing(加入你正在做的事情)意思接近。故选B。
25.What was the attitude of the author’s father toward buying groceries with jars?
A.He disapproved of it.
B.He was favorable to it.

A machine can now not only beat you at chess, it can also outperform you in debate.Last
week, in a public debate in San Francisco, a software program called Project Debater beat its
human opponents, including Noa Ovadia, Israel’s former national debating champion.
Brilliant though it is, Project Debater has some weaknesses.It takes sentences from its library
of documents and prebuilt arguments and strings them together.This can lead to the kinds of errors
no human would make.Such wrinkles will no doubt be ironed out, yet they also point to a
fundamental problem.As Kristian Hammond, professor of electrical engineering and computer
science at Northwestern University, put it:“There’s never a stage at which the system knows
what it’s talking about.”
What Hammond is referring to is the question of meaning, and meaning is central to what
distinguishes the least intelligent of humans from the most intelligent of machines.A computer
works with symbols.Its program specifies a set of rules to transform one string of symbols into
another.But it does not specify what those symbols mean.Indeed, to a computer, meaning is
irrelevant.Humans, in thinking, talking, reading and writing, also work with symbols.But for
humans, meaning is everything.When we communicate, we communicate meaning.What matters is
not just the outside of a string of symbols, but the inside too, not just how they are arranged but
what they mean.
Meaning emerges through a process of social interaction, not of computation, interaction that
shapes the content of the symbols in our heads.The rules that assign meaning lie not just inside our
heads, but also outside, in society, in social memory, social conventions and social relations.It is
this that distinguishes humans from machines.And that’s why, however astonishing Project
Debater may seem, the tradition that began with Socrates and Confucius will not end with artificial
intelligence.
语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道,主要介绍的是一款名为Project Debater的软件程序在辩论
赛中击败了人类对手。
28.Why does the author mention Noa Ovadia in the first paragraph?
A.To explain the use of a software program.
B.To show the cleverness of Project Debater.
C.To introduce the designer of Project Debater.
D.To emphasize the fairness of the competition.
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。根据第一段第二句可知,Project Debater在一场公开辩论赛中击败了包
括以色列的前全国辩论冠军Noa Ovadia在内的人类对手,由此推知,作者在第一段提到Noa Ovadia的目的是展示Project Debater的聪明。故选B。
29.What does the underlined word “wrinkles” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Arguments. B.Doubts.
C.Errors. D.Differences.
答案 C
解析 词义猜测题。根据第二段前三句可知,Project Debater的一些缺点会使它犯一些人类
不会犯的错误,再结合画线词前的 such可知,wrinkles指的就是前面提到的errors。故选
C。
30.What is Project Debater unable to do according to Hammond?
A.Create rules.
B.Comprehend meaning.
C.Talk fluently.
D.Identify difficult words.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“What Hammond is referring to is the question of
meaning...to a computer, meaning is irrelevant.”可知,根据Hammond的说法,Project Debater
不能理解意义。故选B。
31.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Social interaction is key to understanding symbols.
B.The human brain has potential yet to be developed.
C.Ancient philosophers set good examples for debaters.
D.Artificial intelligence ensures humans a bright future.
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句可知,社会互动是理解符号的关键。故选A。
D
According to the Solar Energy Industry Association, the number of solar panels installed(安
装)has grown rapidly in the past decade, and it has to grow even faster to meet climate goals.But all
of that growth will take up a lot of space, and though more and more people accept the concept of
solar energy, few like large solar panels to be installed near them.
Solar developers want to put up panels as quickly and cheaply as possible, so they haven’t
given much thought to what they put under them.Often, they’ll end up filling the area with small
stones and using chemicals to control weeds.The result is that many communities, especially in
farming regions, see solar farms as destroyers of the soil.
“Solar projects need to be good neighbors,” says Jordan Macknick, the head of the
Innovative Site Preparation and Impact Reductions on the Environment(InSPIRE)project.“They
need to be protectors of the land and contribute to the agricultural economy.” InSPIRE isinvestigating practical approaches to “lowimpact” solar development, which focuses on
establishing and operating solar farms in a way that is kinder to the land.One of the easiest low-
impact solar strategies is providing habitat for pollinators(传粉昆虫).
Habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change have caused dramatic declines in pollinator
populations over the past couple of decades, which has damaged the U . S.agricultural
economy.Over 28 states have passed laws related to pollinator habitat protection and pesticide
use.Conservation organizations put out pollinatorfriendliness guidelines for home gardens,
businesses, schools, cities—and now there are guidelines for solar farms.
Over the past few years, many solar farm developers have transformed the space under their
solar panels into a shelter for various kinds of pollinators, resulting in soil improvement and carbon
reduction.“These pollinatorfriendly solar farms can have a valuable impact on everything that’s
going on in the landscape,” says Macknick.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。新型的太阳能农场有利于保护各种传粉昆虫,从而促进农业
的发展。
32.What do solar developers often ignore?
A.The decline in the demand for solar energy.
B.The negative impact of installing solar panels.
C.The rising labor cost of building solar farms.
D.The most recent advances in solar technology.
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知,太阳能开发者采用不环保的方式处理安装太阳能
板的区域,导致人们把太阳能农场看作是土壤的破坏者,由此可以推断,开发者经常忽略安
装太阳能板的负面影响。故选B项。
33.What does InSPIRE aim to do?
A.Improve the productivity of local farms.
B.Invent new methods for controlling weeds.
C.Make solar projects environmentally friendly.
D.Promote the use of solar energy in rural areas.
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段第三句可知,InSPIRE采用对土地更友好的方式建立和运营
太阳能农场,也就是使太阳能农场更加环保。故选C项。
34.What is the purpose of the laws mentioned in paragraph 4?
A.To conserve pollinators.
B.To restrict solar development.
C.To diversify the economy.D.To ensure the supply of energy.
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据第四段第二句可知,这些法律都是与传粉昆虫栖息地的保护和农药
使用相关,所以这些法律的目的是保护传粉昆虫。故选A项。
35.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.Pollinators:To Leave or to Stay
B.Solar Energy:Hope for the Future
C.InSPIRE:A Leader in Agriculture
D.Solar Farms:A New Development
答案 D
解析 标题归纳题。根据最后一段可知,太阳能农场已经变得更加环保,这将是未来农业发
展的新趋势,再结合全文对太阳能农场的介绍可以判断,本文主题是介绍太阳能农场。故选
D项。

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多
余选项。
With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever, why not book your
next domestic vacation on a train? Compared to other alternatives, it’s comfortable and
relaxing.Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible.
Plan ahead.Most longdistance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out
very quickly. 36 But no matter when you travel, it’s a good idea to make your reservations at
least 90 days in advance.
Use a travel agent.Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him
doublecheck all the details, make suggestions, and then handle the actual reservations.A good one
can sometimes find you discounted tickets. 37 Then you won’t have to walk through several
cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals.
Bring a blanket.When you’re riding on trains, you won’t be provided with a blanket for
free, even if your trip is an overnight one. 38 In the summer in particular, the air conditioning
can make them quite cold.
Arrive early.Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so
missing yours can be a disaster. 39 Note:The times listed on the schedules are departure
times, not arrival times.
Have fun. 40 Read a book, knit, do a crossword puzzle, or simply watch the world unfold
outside the window.To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an
hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between two
mileposts).If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile, you’re going 67.92 mph.
A.Train trips aren’t for impatient types.B.You’ll have views from both sides of the train.
C.The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control.
D.That’s particularly true during busy summer months.
E.You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one.
F.Chances are the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom.
G.He may also book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner.
36.答案 D
解析 根据上下文可知,大多数长途火车的卧铺很容易被订完,所以要提前安排预订,D项
“在繁忙的夏季尤其如此”承上启下,符合语境。故选D项。
37.答案 G

餐车的距离,G项“他可能还会给你预订餐厅旁边的卧铺车厢”承上启下,符合语境。故选
G项。
38.答案 C
解析 根据上下文可知,这里提到了车厢内温度的问题,提醒乘客最好自备毛毯,C项“列
车上的温度通常很难控制”符合语境。故选C项。
39.答案 E
解析 根据上文可知,本段提醒要早点到车站,错过时间是很麻烦的事情,因此 E项“你
可能要等上超过24小时才能赶上下一班”承接上文,符合语境。故选E项。
40.答案 A
解析 根据上文可知,本段讲述如何度过乘车时间,A项中讲到火车旅行不适合没有耐心的
人,与后文要计算速度、用不同的方式打发时间对应,符合语境。故选A项。

Getting to Know the Plants Around Us
参考范文
Getting to Know the Plants Around Us
Last weekend, I participated in a “Getting to Know the Plants Around Us” activity
organised by our Students’ Council.
The activity began with a lecture by a local botanist, who taught us about the different
characteristics and uses of various plant species.We then went on a natural walk to observe and
collect samples of different plants.Throughout the event, I was struck by the incredible variety of
plants that exist in our world and learned about plants that are used for medical purposes, as well as
those that provide food and shelter for animals.I also gained a greater appreciation for the role that
plants play in maintaining the balance of our ecosystem.
Overall, it was a valuable and enriching experience.
第二节 (满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was invited to a cookout on an old friend’s farm in Western Washington.I parked my car
outside the farm and walked past a milking house which had apparently not been used in many
years.A noise at a window caught my attention, so I entered it.It was a hummingbird (蜂鸟),
desperately trying to escape.She was covered in spiderwebs (蛛网) and was barely able to move her
wings.She ceased her struggle the instant I picked her up.
With the bird in my cupped hand, I looked around to see how she had gotten in.The broken
window glass was the likely answer.I stuffed a piece of cloth into the hole and took her outside,
closing the door securely behind me.
When I opened my hand, the bird did not fly away; she sat looking at me with her bright eyes.I
removed the sticky spiderwebs that covered her head and wings.Still, she made no attempt to
fly.Perhaps she had been struggling against the window too long and was too tired? Or too thirsty?
As I carried her up the blackberrylined path toward my car where I kept a water bottle, she
began to move.I stopped, and she soon took wing but did not immediately fly away.
Hovering (悬停), she approached within six inches of my face.For a very long moment, this
tiny creature looked into my eyes, turning her head from side to side.Then she flew quickly out of
sight.
During the cookout, I told my hosts about the hummingbird incident.They promised to fix thewindow.As I was departing, my friends walked me to my car.I was standing by the car when a
hummingbird flew to the center of our group and began hovering.She turned from person to person
until she came to me.She again looked directly into my eyes, then let out a squeaking call and was
gone.For a moment, all were speechless.Then someone said, “She must have come to say
goodbye.”
注意:续写词数应为 150 左右。
A few weeks later, I went to the farm again.
I was just about to leave when the hummingbird appeared.
参考范文
A few weeks later, I went to the farm again.As my car neared it my thoughts drifted back to
the moment when I rescued the hummingbird from the spider’s webs.I rushed back to the
deserted house.It was a great comfort that the original hole in the window was nowhere to be
found.Leaving the house, I couldn’t help wondering how it was getting on now.Had it managed to
find its way back home, or was it still out there somewhere struggling to survive?
I was just about to leave when the hummingbird appeared.A flash of movement caught my
attention.I turned around to see the same hummingbird hovering in the air.It seemed that the bird
was waiting for me, its beady eyes locked on mine as if trying to convey some deep, unspoken
gratitude.I felt a surge of relief and awe at the sight of this sound and grateful creature, and I knew
that I would always cherish the memories we shared as I climbed into my car and drove away.
