【答案】
21.do 22.less 23.hadspent 24.nowthat 25.how
26.in 27.Tobe/Being 28.emptied 29.tosee 30.where
【解析】
2l.do[解析]考直倒装句。rarely 否定词位于句首，句子需要用倒装语序。此外句子中的时间状语为 everyday
可判定句子谓语时态为一般现在时。句意为我很少需要每天准备家庭晚餐。因此答案为助动词 do。
22.less[解析]考查形容词比较级。根据第一段第一句话“Thadexpectedtohavemorefreetimeaftermysons,
EvanandAlex,eachleftforcollege,andIdo.””在我儿子埃文和亚历克斯各自离开去上大学之后，我本来希
望能有更多的空闲时间而我确实是。可知作者想要更多自由时间。这里暗示有较少的衣物要洗。因此需要
用一般级比较，而且 little 前面有程度词alot 修饰。因此答案为 less。
23.hadspent[解析]考查过去完成时。根据此句中的谓语动词 wondered，可知宾语从句从用过去完成时，表
示过去的过去。此句句意为当孩子们还是婴儿的时候，我想知道在他们出生之前我是怎么度过这些小时的。
因此正确答案为 hadspent。
24.Nowhat[解析]考查状语从句。此句需要一个连接词将前后两个句子连控起来，因为这个句子之间是逗号，
所有缺少连词。根据句意:既然我能够让那些时间倒回，我就可以专注于自己的需求。因此正确答案为 Now
that。25.how[解析]考查宾语从句。seen 后面的句子主谓宾结构完整，根据句意知应为如何在没有我的情
况下苗壮成长。因此正确答案为 Nowthat。上海最大个人家教平台---【嘉惠家教】
帮上海数万家庭匹配满意老师， 对接 V:jiajiao6767 （嘉惠老师）
26.in[解析]考查介词短语搭配。takepriden 以......为自豪。此句句意为我自己的身份不依赖于他们自己而
感到自豪。thefact 作介词 in 的宾语同时引导位语从句，因此正确答案为 in。
27.Tobe/Being[解析]考查非谓语动词作主语。此句有谓语动词 defines，但句子中缺少主语，而动词放在
句首，需要用其 ing 形式或用 todo 的非谓语形作主语。句意为作为一个不同类型的母亲现在定义了我。
因此正确答案为Tobe/Being。
28.emptied[解析]考查过去分词。此句中有谓语动词 are，因此这里的 emptied是非谓语动词修饰 thespaces。
因此正确答案为 emptied。
29.to see[解析]考查动词不定式。此句中有谓语动词 have，这里的 see 是非语动闻作后置定语修饰 he
chance，句意为我现在有机会把他们看作整个世界，
但也没有人会将会喜欢这样。因此正确答案为 tosee。
30.where[解析]考查主语从句。where 引导的句子主谓宾齐全，少了地点状语用 where 作不及物动词 live
的地点状语，where 相当于 inwhich。因此正确答案为 where。

Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note

Palaces are known for their beauty and splendor, but they offer little
protection against attacks. It is easy to defend a fortress, but fortresses are

European castle is the pinnacle of design.Across the ages castles changed, developed, and eventually fell out of
use,buttheystillcommandthe___32___ofourculture.

foroffensiveattacks.Troopsweresummonedto,organizedaround,anddeployedfromcastles.Inthiswaycastles
servedboth___36___anddefensiverolesinmilitaryoperations.
Not limited to military purposes, castles also served as offices from which the lord would administer control
over his fiefdom. That is to say, the lord of the land would hold court in his castle. Those that were socially
beneaththelordwouldcometoreporttheaffairsofthelandsthatthey___37___andpaytributetothelord.They
would ___38___ disputes, handle business, feast, and enjoy festivities. In this way castles served as important
social centers in medieval England. Castles also served as symbols of power. Built on prominent sites ___39___
the surrounding areas, castles constantly loomed in the background of many peasants' lives and served as a daily
___40___ofthelord'sstrength.
【答案】31-40:DBFKH ECAGI
【解析】
31.D[解析]根据句意:当涉及到建筑既雄伟又坚固的建筑，经典的欧洲城堡是设计的顶峰。imposing 壮观的;
令人印象深刻的，作表语修饰定语从句中的主语，构成主系表结构。
32.B[解析]根据句意:他们仍然指挥着我们文化的魅力可知，应为 fascination魅力;吸引力。
33.F[解析]根据句子结构可知，应填副词修饰 built。句意:城堡最初是诺曼入侵者于 1066 年在英国建造的。
34.K[解析]as 引导的非限制性定语从句中缺少谓语动词。sweepthrough 横扫。
35.H[解析]介词后加名词。根据句意他们受到了英国叛乱的威胁。 rebellion 造反，叛乱。
36.E[解析]and 链接两个形容词修饰 roles。offensive 攻击的，冒犯的。
37.C[解析]and 连接两个并列的动词，所以要用一般过去时。根据句意是他们管理的土地。
38.A[解析]动词并列表示一系列连贯的动作，前后时态一致。addressdisputes地址纠纷。
39.G[解析]考查伴随状语，主句句子完整，前为对主句句子的补充说明，不应该构成句子，所以用 v-inge
40.1[解析]周定搭配，reminderof提醒。

tenhourshaulingintheday’scatch.Whentheywearilyreturntodockandcounttheirtake,onehasthreetimesas

onmerit—inthiscase,successfulfishing.Inacademicjargon,it’scalled“merit-baseddistributivejustice.”
The alternative — onealternative — is to divide the spoils equally.After all, both fishermen spentten hours
under the hot sun working, and brought back fish that will feed the community. And both need the money, so
perhapsthisisfairer,moreequitable?
The weight of evidence supports merit pay as the fairer approach. Humans are markedly averse to giving
workers more than they deserve, and indeed many will settle for less in order to compensate work equitably.
What’s more, this attitude appears very early in childhood: Children as young as three believe that hard work
merits more reward. By the time they enter school, children are like little adults in their commitment to
distributivejustice.
But is this impulse universal? Perhaps not, says psychological scientist Marie Schäfer of the Max Planck
Institute forEvolutionaryAnthropologyinGermany.AccordingtoSchäfer,nobodyhaseverlookedathowyoung
children from different cultures think about merit when sharing rewards. There is reason to suspect that
meritocracy may bemore ofaWesternconceptandvalue,so sheandseveralcolleaguesdecidedto putthis tothe

Only the game was rigged by the scientists in advance: In some cases, the two children would catch exactly the
same number of fish, while in other cases, one child would catch three times as many fish. In another condition,

The idea was totesthow much the childrenvalued merit. So eachchild was given a number ofsweets equal

shares of the catch. That is, if they had landed the same number of fish, they would choose to reward each one
equally, but if one fared much better at fishing, rewards would also be disproportionate. In the case where they

We Have a Painter to Thank for Yellowstone
Before artist Thomas Moran set foot inthepark, itwas seen as ahellish place. After, itwas
marketed as a wonderland.
Before Thomas Moran arrived, Yellowstone in the popular imagination was a harsh, wild place pocked
with hellish geysers.After the painter’s work was finished,Yellowstone was established as a national park and
marketedas awonderland.
In 1871 Moran and photographer William Henry Jackson had joined the first U.S. government survey of
the region. For two weeks Moran filled a sketchbook with the landscape’s most stunning sights. The survey
results, Jackson’s photos, and Moran’s watercolors—the first color renderings of the area—were presented to
Congress that fall. “The photographs were proof that what the artist was showing really existed,” says Eleanor
Harvey, senior curatorattheSmithsonianAmericanArtMuseum.
In March 1872 lawmakers officially made Yellowstone a national park, the world’s first. By April, Moran
had transformed some of his sketches into a 7-by-12-foot painting. The gold-splattered valley and billowing
Lower Falls of “The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone” captivated the public. “It is too grand and wonderful
for words,” declared the Ladies’ Repository that August, “and none can ever judge of its wonders from any
engravingor photographinmereblackandwhite.”上海最大个人家教平台---【嘉惠家教】

Though Moran later painted Lake Superior, the Grand Canyon, and the Rockies, his reputation was so
intertwinedwithYellowstonethathetooktosigninghispaintings “TYM,”forThomas “Yellowstone”Moran.

【答案】 56.C 57.B 58.B 59.A
56.C[解析]考查细节理解。根据文章第二，三段可知，Moran 和 Jackson 提出的改造建议对黄石公园被改
造为国家公园有着重要的意义，故选 C。

popular imagination was a harsh, wild place pocked with hellish geysers. After the painter's work was finished,
Yellowstonewasestablishedasanationalparkandmarketedasawonderland.”在托马斯·莫兰到来之前，人们想
象中的黄石公园是一个布满地狱般间歇泉的荒凉地方。但画家的作品完成后，黄石公园被定为国家公园，
并作为一个仙境出售。Pocked 意为“havingholesorhollowmarksonthesurface”(表面)有洞的，有坑的，作

58.B[解析]考查细节理解。根据文章中“ItistoograndandwonderfulforwordsdeclaredtheLadies’Repository
thatAugust,“andnonecaneverjudgeofitswondersfromanyengravingorphotographinmereblackandwhite.”
可知，大家对托马斯·莫兰关于黄石公园的画作印象是宏伟美妙，故选 B。
59.A[解析]考查逻辑推理。根据文章整体分析，以及“BeforeartistThomasMoransetfootin thepark,itwas
seenasahellishplace.After,itwasmarketedasawonderland.”该句话的总体概括和暗示，可知本文主要讲述
了托马斯·莫兰对黄石公园的巨大影响意义，故选 A。

theUS.
A study on crash factors in intersection-related accidents from the US National Highway Traffic Safety
Association showsthatturningleftisoneoftheleading"criticalpre-crash events"(aneventthatmadeacollision
inevitable), occurring in 22.2 percent of crashes, as opposed to 1.2 percent for right turns. About 61 percent of
crashes that occur while turning or crossing an intersection involve left turns, as opposed to just 3.1 percent
involvingrightturns.
Left turns are also three times more likely to kill pedestrians than right ones, according to data collected by
NewYorkCity'stransportationplanners.
"A left-hand turn is also less fuel efficient," said Jack Levis, UPS Senior Director of Process Management,
"becauseyourcar'sidlinglonger,whichisalsonotgoodforyourvehicle."
UPS does not ban left turns outright, says Levis: "We will make left hand turns, but not ones that are
unnecessary. We don't need to go in circles all day long by making only right hand turns. We have tools analyze

Why datais thenew coal
“Is data the new oil?” asked proponents of big data back in 2012 in Forbes magazine. By 2016, and the rise
of big data’s turbo-powered cousin deep learning, we had become more certain: “Data is the new oil,” stated
Fortune.
Amazon’s Neil Lawrence has aslightly differentanalogy: Data, he says, is coal. Not coaltoday, though, but
coal in the early days of the 18th century, when Thomas Newcomen invented the steam engine. A Devonian
ironmonger,Newcomenbuilthisdevicetopumpwateroutofthesouthwest’sprolifictinmines.
The problem, as Lawrence told the Re-Work conference on Deep Learning in London, was that the pump

like London’s Magic Pony and SwiftKey are coming up with revolutionary new ways to train machines to do
impressive feats of cognition, from reconstructing facial data from grainy images to learning the writing style of

Andyet,likeNewcomen,theirinnovationsaresomuchmoreusefultothepeoplewhoactuallyhavecopious

Microsoft – and Lawrence himself gets hired by Amazon from the University of Sheffield, where he was based

ToLaughIsHuman
Most of us don’t know why we laugh at some jokes and not at others. Scientists know that we are able to
laugh at birth. Babies begin to laugh at three to four months of age, well before they produce their first words.
Whatscientistsareinterestediniswhywelaugh.
Scientists believe humans laugh with others primarily because it makes us feel connected with one another,
which in turn gives us a sense of trust and comfort. To scientists, laughter is an unconscious reaction;

Studies have proven that when people see or hear something funny, they are 20 times more likely to laugh when
they are with others than when they are alone. Wanting to be accepted by others is part of human nature. And
mirroring other people’s laughter is a way to signal to others that you feel the way they do, which makes us feel

参考答案：
Scientists think humans are born with the ability to laugh, but why do we laugh? We laugh to feel
closer to one another. Laughter helps us to be recognized so we laugh more in groups than when alone.
Laughter also evolved from a more basic need to survive as it promoted cooperation, enabling humans to
survivebetter. (59w)
(be bornwith= be inborn/ accepted=recognized= identified/ be bornout of=evolve from =come from =originate

Laughter is unconscious, infectious and basic. It brings us a trustworthy, comfortable and honest
feeling, thus better maintaining friendships. Chances are that we laugh more with others around,
contributing to prompting recognition and feeling more connected with one another. Scientists assure that

while being a waiter in a restaurant involves serving the right dishes to the right table, doing some cleaning and
communicating with the diners. A robot can accomplish three or four librarians’ work of sorting and labeling
books at the same time, whereas it is pale before a man in communicating and tackling the unexpected
(unpredictable)occasions.
In terms of working efficiency, a robot may be more efficient in doing the programmed, mechanical and
repetitive kind of work. Therefore, it is more advisable for the robot to undertake the duties of a librarian
grouping countless books repeatedly, thus considerably improving the efficiency of a human librarian.
However,whenitcomestotheworkofawaiter,whoneedn’tworksoheavilyandfastasalibrarianbutdoneed

评析：文章开头的动词使用可谓准确而丰富，均为考纲中的基本词汇，却给人耳目一新的感觉，完全没有
生搬硬套“模板”的痕迹，这是本文的“与众不同”之一。也是诸君在日常词汇积累中要借鉴的地方---单
词跟着例句走，活学活用。
其实中间段落完全可以构成另一篇佳作的核心部分。但由于本文入题篇幅较长，其他部分也都相应拉长，
但这两段举例和说理“长而不腻”，调理清晰，没有重复“赘肉”。诸君在这里既要学到内容上的“与众
不同”，也要时刻自省，自己的作品在结构上是不是合理。
结尾是文章的又一亮点，作者指出：“人工智能和机器人的存在，是为了解放生产力，让人类能够有时间
精力去探索新的知识。”主题的升华是本篇范文的另一“与众不同”。
从头到尾，一气呵成，词汇使用没有深奥难懂，但看得出作者是在认真、自信地发表自己的意见，融入了
