9、evening. When I did some work in my garden, I suddenly felt a blow to the right side of my neck. Totally confused, I reached up and, to my horror, realized that I had been shot with an arrow. I screamed my husbands name. He dropped his work and ran to me. Ed grabbed me by the shoulders to stop me fr
10、om running and told me to lie down on the couch. Then he called 911. I lay there and prayed, wondering if there was any way I could live.The arrow had come from a young man practicing with a bow, used for hunting, in his backyard. Luckily, he was using a practice arrow, which is smooth and rounded:
11、a broadhead arrow would have led to a different ending.As the doctors entered the house and sat down beside me, they were perfectly calm and totally focused. I was rushed to the hospital and shortly took a CT scan to determine the location of the arrow inside. The doctors began telling me how lucky
12、I was. The arrow had gone past the carotid artery (颈动脉). The morning after my two-hour surgery, the surgeon came in. He checked the wound and talked to us about what he had done. Then he told us something that rocked our world again.He said that the CT scan had revealed that I had a brain tumor (肿瘤)
13、. I remember going a bit frozen but thinking, God works in mysterious ways!The surgeon said they were almost certain the tumor wasnt fierce but it was located in a very difficult place. I was terrified, of course, but I felt like it was Gods plan for me to find it.A few days later, I went in for a s
14、econd opinion from another surgeon. He said that it was a difficult surgery but that it had to be done. The tumor was about to cross the midline of my brain, which would have resulted in a massive stroke (中风).The brain surgery was successful, and in less than a week I was back home. All was going we
15、ll for the years to come. Had it not been for that arrow, I would have died from a brain tumor or a stroke! I wasnt lucky, but I was blessed indeed.4How did the woman react directly she realized she was shot by something in the neck?AShe cried out for her husbands help.BShe took it easy and lay down
16、 on the couch.CShe made a prayer that she could live.DShe urged Ed to dial 911 without delay.5What can be learned from the passage?AThe arrow with a narrow head was shot out while a man was hunting.BThe doctors felt it lucky that the arrow had missed the womans carotid artery.CThe womans tumor was f
17、ound when she went in for a second CT scan.DThe tumor in the womans head must have caused a stroke if left untreated.6Why did the woman say she wasnt lucky but blessed indeed?ABecause she was shot hurt by the arrow but she could still pull through.BBecause she was saved both from the arrow shot and
18、from the tumor.CBecause she didnt miss the arrow shot but missed being killed by the tumor.DBecause she could have possibly been killed by the arrow or by the tumor.7What may be the moral behind the story?AIts in Gods hands.BA fall into a pit, a gain in your wit.CA blessing remains in hiding.DAll go
19、od things come to an end.CIf you ask people to name the one person who had the greatest effect on the English language, you will get answers like “Shakespeare,” “Samuel Johnson,” and “Webster,” but none of these men had any effect at all compared to a man who didnt even speak English-William the Con
20、queror.Before 1066, in the land we now call Great Britain lived peoples belonging to two major language groups. In the west central region lived the Welsh, who spoke a Celtic language, and in the north lived the Scots, whose language, though not the same as Welsh, was also Celtic. In the rest of the
21、 country lived the Saxons, actually a mixture of Anglos, Saxons, and other Germanic and Nordic peoples, who spoke what we now call Anglo-Saxon (or Old English), a Germanic language. If this state of affairs had lasted, English today would be close to German.But this state of affairs did not last. In
22、 l066 the Normans led by William defeated the Saxons and began their rule over England. For about a century, French became the official language of Eng-land while Old English became the language of peasants. As a result, English words of Politics and the law come from French rather than German. In s
23、ome cases, modern English even shows a distinction (区别) between upper-class French and lower-class Anglo-Saxon in its words. We even have different words for some foods, meat in particular, depending on whether it is still out in the fields or at home ready to be cooked, which shows the fact that th
24、e Saxon peasants were doing the farming, while the upper-class Normans were doing most of the eating.When Americans visit Europe for the first time, they usually find Germany more foreign than France because the German they see on signs and advertisements seems much more different from English than
25、French does. Few realize that the English language is actually Germanic in its beginning and that the French influences are all the result of one mans ambition.8The two major languages spoken in what is now called Great Britain before l066 were AWelsh and ScottishBNordic and GermanicCCeltic and Old

29、ies diversity and- evolutionary heritage.Amphibians represent an important sign of global change, scientists say, due to their particularly high sensitivity to disturbances in their environment. There are more than 7000 amphibian species on Earth, including frogs. “Amphibians are a globally endanger
30、ed group for which threats from global change are outpacing our ability to safeguard species,” said Walter Jetz, lead author of a paper published online in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution.

The researchers used the data to examine historical diversification patterns of amphibians as well as levels of isolation on the family tree, also called evolut
32、ionary distinctness.Amphibians are the most ancient group of terrestrial vertebrates(陆生脊椎动物) surviving today, with origins reaching back more than 300 million years. The authors found that select members of this group alive today carry more than 100 million years of evolutionary history distinct to
33、only them. The long, separate path of these species may have resulted in the evolution of key functions for varied ecosystems. Thanks to the early origin of the group, such highly distinct species are found in all parts of the world.With many species still insufficiently (不够地) studied in the wild to
34、 appreciate their risk of extinction or potential functions for the ecosystem, the researchers said, knowing their evolutionary distinctness and place on the family tree can provide invaluable insights. A worldwide focus on all species allows us to link threats and evolutionary history across region

This means there is significant potential for conservation action to mitigate the effect h

60、ast I would have a safe place to keep my private things. So I asked my parents for a nightstand with lockable drawers (抽屉).We went to the secondhand furniture store and found an old, dark brown nightstand. It didnt look too cool, but at least it had drawers that I could keep locked. I decided that I

66、的一些列车类型的相关信息。1细节理解题。根据文章“TGV”部分中的“These modern trains run on around 50 high-speed routes and always require a reservation in advance. (这些现代化的列车在大约50条高速线路上运行,总是需要提前预订。)”以及“Inter-cites”部分中的“Reservations are usually required on most Inter-cites services. (大多数城际列车服务通常需要预订)”可推知,TGV高铁和城际列车的共同点是两者通常都需要预订。故
67、选C。2细节理解题。根据文章“TER”部分中的“Low-cost (低成本)”以及“TER stands for Transport Express Regional and there are 20 different regional TER services operating across France. (TER是区域运输快件的缩写,在法国有20种不同的区域运输快件服务。)”可知,TER服务的特别之处在于它以相对较低的成本提供区域服务。故选D。3推理判断题。根据“Sleeper trains”部分中的“Operated by Thello, the popular night tra
68、in route in France starts in Paris and works its way down into Italy. If you want to save money on accommodation during your trip, taking a sleeper train lets you wake up feeling refreshed at your next destination. (由泰洛运营,这条在法国颇受欢迎的夜间列车线路从巴黎出发,进入意大利。如果你想在旅途中节省住宿,那就坐一辆sleeper train,让你在下一个目的地醒来时感觉精神焕发
69、。)”可推知,Sleeper trains适合想去意大利,又想要省钱的人。故选D。4A5B6C7C本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲了作者被一支箭偶然射伤,进医院后意外发现脑部有一个肿瘤,但并不严重,脑部手术很成功最终因祸得福的故事。4细节理解题。根据第一段中“I screamed my husbands name. He dropped his work and ran to me.( 我尖叫着丈夫的名字。他放下手中的工作,向我跑过来。)”可知当这位女士发现自己被箭射中时,就立刻大声向自己的丈夫求助。故选A。5细节理解题。根据第三段“The doctors began telling me how l
70、ucky I was. The arrow had gone past the carotid artery (颈动脉). (医生开始告诉我我是多么幸运。箭经过了颈动脉)”可知,医生觉得很幸运是因为箭从颈动脉旁边经过并没有刺穿颈动脉。故选B。6细节理解题。根据最后一段“Had it not been for that arrow, I would have died from a brain tumor or a stroke!( 如果没有那支箭,我可能会死于脑瘤或中风!)”可知虽然作者被箭射中是不幸的,但因此发现脑肿瘤,避免死于脑瘤或中风的危险。所以作者觉得自己是不幸中的万幸。故选C。7推理
71、判断题。通读全文,可知本文主要讲了作者被一支箭偶然射伤,进医院后意外发现脑部有一个肿瘤,但并不严重,脑部手术很成功最终因祸得福的故事。由此推知,选项C. A blessing remains in hiding.( 祝福在隐藏当中)与本文所传达的“因祸得福”的意思最为接近。故选C。8C9A10C11D本文是一篇议论文。如果让你列举那些对应于做出最大贡献的人,你一定会得到类似莎士比亚,塞缪尔约翰逊这样的答案,但实际上,没有任何人的对英语的影响力能够超过征服者威廉。在1066年以前,我们现在称为英国的土地上存在两种主要语言,一种是凯尔特语,另一种是古英语。而后来由于威廉的雄心,使得古英语成为英国的
72、主要语言,而法语也成为对英语影响颇深的语言。8细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“In the west-central region lived the Welsh, who spoke a Celtic language, and in the north lived the Scots, whose language, though not the same as Welsh, was also Celtic.”在中西地区住着威尔士人,他们说凯尔特语,在南部居住着苏格兰人,他们的语言不同于威尔士人的语言,但也是凯尔特语。由此可知一大主要语言为凯尔特语。根据第二段第三句“In the rest
73、of the country lived the Saxons, actually a mixture of Anglos, Saxons, and other Germanic and Nordic peoples, who spoke what we now call Anglo-Saxon (or Old English), a Germanic language. ”在国家的其余地方居住着撒克逊人,他们是英国人、撒克逊人、德国人、日耳曼人的混合,他们讲的语言是英格兰语(即古英语)。可知另一大分支为古英语。故选C。9推理判断题。根据第三段中“As a result, English wo
74、rds of politics and the law come from French rather than German.”结果导致,英语中关于政治和法律的词来源于法语而不是德语。“We even have different words for some foods, meat in particular, depending on whether it is still out in the fields or at home ready to be cooked, which shows the fact that the Saxon peasants were doing the
75、 farming, while the upper-class Normans were doing most of the eating.”我们甚至在食物尤其是肉食上有不同的词,这取决于它是长在田野里,还是在家煮着吃,事实证明,撒克逊农民在耕作而上层社会的诺曼人在大部分食物上贡献更多。由此可见,有关政治、法律以及家中煮着的食物最可能来源于法国,故选A。10细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“When Americans visit Europe for the first time, they usually find Germany more foreign than France becaus
76、e the German they see on signs and advertisements seems much more different from English than French does”当美国人到欧洲旅游时,他们经常发现德语比法语更像外国语,以为在德国,他们看见的标签和广告语看起来比法语更与英语不同。所以可知,许多法语词汇和英语很像。故选C。11主旨大意题。文章开篇即抛出问题:谁对英语的影响最大,接着给出答案:征服者威廉。可见文章即将讨论的问题就是他对英语的影响。接下来,作者介绍了1066年以前的英国语言由两大派系组成,而之后由于威廉的雄心,才使得古英语成为英国的主要
77、语言,而法语也成为对英语影响颇深的语言。故选D。12D13A14C15B这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了耶鲁大学和乔治华盛顿大学的研究人员进行了一项新的研究,研究人类对两栖动物家族树的威胁,并呼吁重新考虑保护优先次序,以保护物种多样性和进化遗产。文章介绍了两栖动物的重要性,以及人类活动对两栖动物产生的影响,呼吁人们保护两栖动物。12推理判断题。根据第二段中“Jetz and co-corresponding author R. Alexander Pyron of George Washington constructed the first comprehensive family tree
78、for nearly all amphibious species alive today.”可知Jetz和乔治华盛顿的共同通讯作者R. Alexander Pyron为几乎所有现存的两栖物种构建了第一个完整的族谱。由此可推知,对两栖动物族谱的研究过去被忽视了。故选D。13细节理解题。根据第四段中“With many species still insufficiently (不够地) studied in the wild to appreciate their risk of extinction or potential functions for the ecosystem, the
79、researchers said, knowing their evolutionary distinctness and place on the family tree can provide invaluable insights.”可知研究人员说,由于许多物种在野外仍未得到充分研究,无法了解它们的灭绝风险或对生态系统的潜在功能,了解它们在进化上的特殊性和在系谱上的位置可以提供宝贵的见解。由此可知,两栖动物进化的特殊性在生态系统的进化中扮演关键角色。故选A。14词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“the effect human activities have the amphibian tre
80、e of life”以及“We expect this information to be widely helpful for the large community of scientists and conservationists interested in amphibians and to empower national and local conservation efforts.( 我们希望这些信息能对广大对两栖动物感兴趣的科学家和自然资源保护论者起到广泛的帮助作用,并为国家和地方的保护工作提供帮助)”可知划线词所在句意思为:这意味着,采取保护行动以减轻人类活动对两栖动物生命
81、树的影响,是很有可能的。即划线词意思为“减少”。A. recognize识别;B. add添加;C. lessen减少;D. remove去除。故选C。15推理判断题。根据第一段“A new study by researchers at Yale and George Washington University is examining the human threats to the amphibian (两栖动物) family tree and calls for a rethinking of conservation priorities (优先) to preserve spec
82、ies diversity and- evolutionary heritage.”可知耶鲁大学和乔治华盛顿大学的研究人员进行了一项新的研究,研究人类对两栖动物家族树的威胁,并呼吁重新考虑保护优先次序,以保护物种多样性和进化遗产。结合文章还介绍了两栖动物的重要性,以及人类活动对两栖动物产生的影响,呼吁人们保护两栖动物。由此可推知,作者写这篇文章的目的是告诉人们保护两栖动物的重要性。故选B。16G17D18B19C20E本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些庆祝新年的有意义的方式。16根据本段主题句“Write a letter to yourself.(给自己写封信。)”和本段内容可知,本段主要
83、介绍给未来的自己写信。所以选择项G“If you miss the good old days, it can be wonderful to write a letter to your future self.(如果你怀念过去的美好时光,给未来的自己写封信是一件很棒的事情。)”符合上下文语境。选择项中的“write a letter to your future self”与主题句“Write a letter to yourself.”相一致。故选G。17根据本段主题句“Release a floating lantern.(放一个浮灯。)”和前句“In many cultures, i
84、ts considered good luck to release a lantern into the sky.(在许多文化中,向天空放飞灯笼被认为是好运。)”可知,放飞灯笼象征着有好运。所以选择项D“It is a symbol of your problems and worries floating away.(它象征着你的问题和烦恼都烟消云散了。)”符合上下文语境。选择项中的it代指主题句中的“a floating lantern”。故选D。18考查本段主题句。根据后句“Alone time is unbelievably important for processing, ref
85、lecting and connecting with yourself. (独处的时间对于处理、反思和与自己联系是极其重要的。)”及本段内容可知,本段主要介绍如何享受独自一人的时光。所以选择项B“Enjoy your own company.(享受独处的时光。)”符合上下文语境。故选B。19根据前文“Have a solo dance party, order favorite carry-out, do an at-home yoga practice or meditation(冥想) and take a candlelit bubble bath. Give yourself the
86、 gift of quality time, and find enjoyment and ease in the company you keep, even in the empty moments. (开个单人舞会,点一份自己喜欢的外卖,在家做瑜伽或冥想,或者来个烛光泡泡浴。给自己一份优质时光的礼物,在你的陪伴中找到快乐和安逸,即使是在空虚的时刻。)”可知,这里介绍独自一人的时候如何由内而外的填充自己。所以选择项C“Fill yourself from the inside out.(由内而外填满你自己。)”符合上下文语境。故选C。20根据本段主题句“List the things yo
