28、最佳选项。AFor Stevens Point locals in the US, the city is flooded with delicious fried fish. Here are four top choices for the community to have a try.Hilltop Pub&GrillHilltop Pub&Grill first opened in the 1980s and took the Stevens Point community by storm with its delicious food and unique decoration
29、style. Its fried fish are beloved due to the use of “high-quality North Atlantic fish, with a light beer batter (面糊)”.The Final Score Bar&GrillThe Final Score Bar&Grill aimed to become a local hot spot in 2001 when Jim Billings, the owner, took charge of the business. Billings feels that their five
30、batter choices set them apart from their neighboring bars. Besides, various wines are available.Point After Pub&GrillPoint After Pub&Grill started serving delicious food and cold beers in a welcoming environment in 2009. But its history runs much longer. “Before it was Point After Pub&Grill, it had
31、been Northside Bar for 30 plus years,” explained Molski, the owner. Molski feels that the pubs four special batter choices and other fish specials are what help make it an area landmark.Two Harps PubThis Irish pub opened its doors to the public in 2017 and has been drawing fans and locals ever since
32、. “I had done my career for a long time and was kind of bored with it,” said Nick Moore, the owner. “And this opportunity fell into my lap, so I went with it.

35、【解析】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了美国Stevens Point几家特色烤鱼吧。【21题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Its fried fish are beloved due to the use of high-quality North Atlantic cod, with a light beer batter (面糊).(它的炸鱼很受欢迎,因为它使用了“高质量的北大西洋鳕鱼和淡啤酒面糊”)”可知,这种特殊的食物使Hilltop Pub&Grill深受顾客的欢迎。故选B。【22题详解】细节理解题。根据The Final Score Bar&Grill部分的“Billings
36、 feels that their five batter flavors set them apart from their neighboring bars.(Billings觉得他们的五种面糊口味使他们与邻近的酒吧与众不同)”和Point After Pub&Grill部分的“Molski feels that the pubs four special batter choices and other fish specials are what help make it an area landmark.(莫尔斯基认为,酒吧的四个特殊的面糊选择和其他鱼类特色使它成为一个地区地标)”可
37、知,这两家烤鱼吧有独特的面糊,这让它们与众不同。故选C。【23题详解】推理判断题。通读全文,根据Two Harps Pub部分的“This Irish pub opened its doors to the public in 2017 and has been drawing fans and locals ever since.(这家爱尔兰酒吧于2017年向公众开放,自那以后一直吸引着粉丝和当地人)”可知,Two Harps Pub于2017年开始营业,是四家烤鱼吧中最新的。故选A。BI remember doing the household chores to help my moth
38、er when I was nine. I hated changing the vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器) bag and picking up things the machine did not suck up. Twenty years later, in 1978, with this lifelong dislike of the way the machine worked, I decided to make a bagless one.Easier said than done, of course. I didnt realize that I would
39、 spend the next five years perfecting my design, a process that resulted in 5,127 different prototypes (样机). By the time I made my 15th prototype, my third child was born. By 2,627, my wife and I were really counting our pennies. By 3,727, my wife was giving art lessons for some extra cash, and we w
40、ere getting further and further into debt. These were tough times, but each failure brought me closer to solving the problem.In the early 1980s, I started trying to get licensing agreements for my technology. The reality was very different, however. The major vacuum makers had built a business model
41、 based on the profits from bags and filters (滤网). No one would license my idea, not because it was a bad one, but because it was bad for business. But soon after, the companies that I had talked with started making machines like mine. I had to fight legal battles on both sides of the Atlantic to pro
42、tect the patents on my vacuum cleaner. I was still in financial difficulties until 1993, when my bank manager personally persuaded Lloyds Bank to lend me $1 million. Then I was able to go into production. Within two years, the Dyson vacuum cleaner became a best-seller in Britain.Today, I still embra
43、ce risk and the potential for failure as part of the process. Nothing beats the excitement of invention,24. What drove the author to make a bagless vacuum cleaner?A. His willingness to help mom.B. His curiosity about machines.C. His trouble in doing family chores.D. His discontent with existing clea
44、ners.25. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us?A. The help from the authors wife.B. The financial problems of the family.C. The tough process of the new invention.D. The procedures of making a bagless cleaner.26. Why did the companies refuse to license the authors technology?A. They thought they migh
45、t suffer loss.B. They considered it not good enough.C. They faced legal problems themselves.D. They had begun making such machines.27. What lesson may the author learn from the experience?A. Think twice before acting.B. Failure is the mother of success.C. Actions speak louder than words.D. A good be
46、ginning makes a good ending.【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. B【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要通过讲述作者发明无袋吸尘器的经历,揭示了“失败为成功之母”的道理。【24题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第一段末尾句内容“I hated changing the vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器) bag and picking up things the machine did not suck up. Twenty years later, in 1978, with this lifelong dislike of the way
47、the machine worked, I decided to make a bagless one.( 我讨厌换真空吸尘器的袋子,讨厌把吸尘器吸不进去的东西捡起来。二十年后,也就是1978年,我对这台机器的工作方式一直很反感,于是决定做一台无袋的。)”可知,对于真空吸尘器的反感导致了作者研制一种无袋吸尘器。故选D项。【25题详解】主旨大意题。通读文章第二段内容,可知其段落结构为总分总结构,首句内容“Easier said than done, of course.( 当然,说起来容易做起来难。)”和末尾句内容“These were tough times, but each failure
48、 brought me closer to solving the problem.( 这是艰难的时刻,但每一次失败都让我离解决问题更近了一步。)”点明本段主旨要义,即:作者发明无袋吸尘器过程中遇到的一些困难。选项C. The tough process of the new invention.(这项新发明的艰难过程。)贴合主旨。故选C项。【26题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第三段内容“The major vacuum makers had built a business model based on the profits from bags and filters. No one wou
49、ld license my idea, not because it was a bad one, but because it was bad for business.( 主要的吸尘器制造商建立了一种基于包装袋和过滤器利润的商业模式。没有人会批准我的想法,不是因为它不好,而是因为它不利于生意。)”可知,没人会认可作者的想法是因为真空吸尘器的包装袋和过滤器能够给商家带来盈利,而作者发明的无袋吸尘器会使商家失去原有的能够带来盈利的部分,因此商家担心其不能带来盈利反而可能会导致损失。故选A项。【27题详解】推理判断题。作者在文章末尾点明主旨,揭示道理:Today, I still embrace
50、 risk and the potential for failure as part of the process. Nothing beats the excitement of invention.( 今天,我仍然接受风险和失败的可能性作为过程的一部分。没有什么能比得上发明带来的兴奋。)可知,作者的“无袋吸尘器”发明经历使他明白了风险和失败在发明过程中是可能存在的。选项B. Failure is the mother of success.( 失败是成功之母。)正确陈述了作者的领悟。故选B项。【点睛】阅读理解之段落主旨大意首尾呼应原则:主题句在段落的开头和结尾两个位置上先后出现,形成前呼
51、后应的格局。这两个主题句叙说的是同一个内容,但用词不尽相同,这样不但强调了主题思想,而且显得灵活多变。这两个句子并非简单重复,后一个主题句或对该主题作最后的评述,或对要点作一概括,或使之引申留给读者去思考。比如文章的第2小题:2. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us? A. The help from the authors wife. B. The financial problems of the family. C. The tough process of the new invention. D. The procedures of making
52、 a bagless cleaner.通过阅读文章第二段可知,该段的主题句在段落的开头和结尾两个位置上先后出现,形成前呼后应的格局。因此结合首末两个主题句:“Easier said than done, of course.( 当然,说起来容易做起来难。)”和“These were tough times, but each failure brought me closer to solving the problem.( 这是艰难的时刻,但每一次失败都让我离解决问题更近了一步。)”分析可知,选项C. The tough process of the new invention.符合主旨要义
53、。因此答案为C项。CPigeons (鸽子) may be considered mice of the sky, but some scientists have found greater value in these urban birds: the blueprint for a new generation of flying machines.Birds can transform the shape of their wings by fanning out their feathers or moving them closer together. Those adjustme
54、nts allow birds to cut through the sky more flexibly than rigid drones (无人机). Now, using new insights into exactly how pigeons joints control the spread of their wing feathers, researchers have built a robotic pigeon. This research paves the way for creating more light aircraft, says Dario Floreano,
55、 a roboticist in Switzerland not involved in the work.“Whats really cool about this robot is that you can make adjustments in a robotic wing that you could never do when studying flight in a bird”, says David Lentink, an engineer and biologist at Stanford University. A controllable robotic pigeon so
56、lves that problem. In flight tests, Lentinks team observed that bending only the fingers of one wing eased the robot into a banked turn-offering the first evidence that birds may sometimes use just their fingers to direct in flight. In a second study, Lentinks group used their robotic wing design to
57、 confirm another insight into bird flight: how gaps are prevented from forming between feathers on extended wings.This is the best set of robotic wings yet for testing how birds adjust their flight feathers to move through the air, says Tyson Hedrick, a biomechanist. But “theres plenty of room for i
58、mprovement.” For instance, a future flying robot could include a shoulder joint to investigate how waving a birds wings up and down influences flight, he says.28. What is the newly-found worth of pigeons?A. They help study other species.B. They protect other urban birds.C. They provide proof of mice
59、s harm.D. They inspire a new aircraft.29. What is Dario Floreanos attitude to the research?A. Negative.B. Positive.C. Neutral.D. Critical.30. What do the underlined words “that problem” in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Pigeons in flight can hardly be observed.B. People cant make adjustments in birds wings
60、.C. It is difficult for pigeons to make a banked turn.D. Pigeons fail to control the spread of their wing feathers.31. Where does the text probably come from?A. A travel journal.B. A travel brochure.C. A science fiction.D. A science magazine.【答案】28. D 29. B 30. B 31. D【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了利用对鸽子的关节
61、如何控制翅膀羽毛伸展的新见解,研究人员已经建造了一个机器鸽子,这是一套用于测试鸟类如何调整飞行羽毛在空中移动的机械翅膀,能够有效帮助科学家研发出新一代的飞行器。【28题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第一段内容“Pigeons may be considered mice of the sky, but some scientists have found greater value in these urban birds: the blueprint for a new generation of flying machines.”可知一些科学家发现鸽子的价值在于它们是新一代飞行机器的蓝图。故选
62、D项。【29题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第二段末尾句内容“This research paves the way for creating more light aircraft, says Dario Floreano, a roboticist in Switzerland not involved in the work.” 可知,在Dario Floreano来看,这项研究为制造更多的轻型飞机铺平了道路,因此可推知他对这项研究的态度是支持的。故选B项。【30题详解】词义猜测题。根据划线短语“that problem”可知,that为指示代词,指代前文提及的内容。因此that probl
63、em 应是指代前文:“Whats really cool about this robot is that you can make adjustments in a robotic wing that you could never do when studying flight in a bird”, says David Lentink, an engineer and biologist at Stanford University.( 斯坦福大学的工程师和生物学家David Lentink说:“这个机器人的最酷之处在于,你可以调整机器人的翅膀,而这在研究鸟类飞行时是无法做到的。”)提
64、到的人类无法做到的问题:人类无法像机器人一样在研究鸟类飞行时调整鸟的翅膀。故选B项。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据文章的核心主题为“a robotic pigeon”,因此可知,文章应是科普类文章,应是刊登在科普杂志上。故选D项。【点睛】人物性格、态度及观点判断题:高考阅读测试中有些是考查考生对作者的主导思想、被描写人物语气、言谈话语中流露的情绪、性格倾向和作者或文中人物态度、观点等方面的理解题。做这一类题时一定要注意:由表及里的准确把握字里行间的意思,切勿用自己的主观想法或观点代替作者的思想观点;特别注意那些描写环境气氛的语言,以及表达感情、态度观点的词语。要特别注意作者在文章中的措词,尤其
65、是表达感情色彩的形容词;能结合自己平时积累的有关英语国家的文化传统、风俗习惯等背景知识来识别评价。比如文章的第2小题:2. What is Dario Floreanos attitude to the research? A. Negative. B. Positive. C. Neutral. D. Critical.根据题干可知,应是态度推理判断题。结合原文“This research paves the way for creating more light aircraft, says Dario Floreano, a roboticist in Switzerland not i
66、nvolved in the work.”可以看出一些表达态度观点的短语:paves the way(为作准备;为铺平道路),应是积极的态度。因此答案为B项。DIs there a link between social media and depression?

70、 years as part of a drug and alcohol prevention program. Part of what the investigators measured was the teens amount of screen time, including time spent on social media, as well as their levels of depression symptoms. One of their main findings was that higher amounts of social media use were asso

76、某个很酷的地方旅行,吃着精致的食物,或者刚从床上卷起来的完美发型看起来很可爱。)”可知,浏览社交网站看到朋友的令人羡慕的内容,会使自己感到心理不平衡而心情糟糕。故选A项。33题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第三段内容:In July, a big study came out in the journal JAMA titled “Association of Screen Time and Depression in Adolescence.” This big headline seems to confirm what a lot of people have been saying-scr
77、een time is horrible for young people.( 今年7月,美国医学会杂志(JAMA)发表了一项名为屏幕时间与青春期抑郁的关系的大型研究。“这个大标题似乎证实了很多人一直在说的屏幕时间对年轻人来说是可怕的。)可知该文章证实了屏幕时间对年轻人来说是可怕的,从而支持了本段论点:People are increasingly suspect that therere the potential problems of social media.( 人们越来越怀疑社交媒体的潜在问题。),因此可知提及该文章是为了证明支持论点。故选C项。【34题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第四
78、段内容“One of their main findings was that higher amounts of social media use were associated with higher levels of depression. ( 他们的主要发现之一是,使用社交媒体的次数越多,抑郁症的程度越高。)”可知,使用社交媒体的频率与抑郁症程度有关,因此选项B.

107、面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。Did you grow up in one culture, your parents came from another, and you are now living in a _61_ (total) different country? If so, then you are a third-culture kid.The term “third-culture kid” _62_ (use) in the 1960s for the first time by Dr. Ruth. She first came across
108、this phenomenon while _63_ (research) North American children living in India. In general, third-culture kids benefit _64_ their intercultural experience and they often reach excellent academic results.Yet many _65_ (difficulty) may arise from this phenomenon. Third-culture kids may not be able to a
109、dapt _66_ (they) completely to their new surroundings. Also, they often find it hard _67_ (develop) new friendship. Additionally, for a third-culture kid, it is often _68_ (easy) to move to a new country than to return to his homeland. For example, after living in Australia for many years, Louis fin
110、ally returned to the country _69_ she was born. She didnt know anything about current TV shows _70_ fashion trends. And she didnt share the same values as other teens of her age.【答案】61. totally 62. was used 63. researching 64. from 65. difficulties 66. themselves 67. to develop 68. easier 69. where
111、70. or【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了“第三文化孩子”这一概念,以及这种跨文化经历给孩子带来的优势和弊端。【61题详解】考查副词。句意:你是不是在一种文化中长大,你的父母来自另一种文化,而你现在生活在一个完全不同的国家?空格后different意为“不同的”,形容词词性,前面应用副词修饰,total意为“完全的”,形容词词性,对应的副词形式为totally,意为“完全,全部地”。故填totally。62题详解】考查时态和语态。句意:“第三文化孩子”这个术语在20世纪60年代首次被Dr. Ruth使用。根据句中in the 1960s可知,句子描述的是过去发生的事,应用一般过去时,句中t
112、hird-culture kid和use之间为被动关系,故应用一般过去时的被动语态,句子主语The term “third-culture kid”为单个术语,与was连用,use的过去分词为used。故填was used。【63题详解】考查省略句。句意:她在研究居住在印度的北美儿童时第一次遇到这种现象。空格处为while引导的时间状语从句,从句主语和主句主语一致,且从句谓语中包含be动词,故省略从句中的主语和be动词,还原之后的句子为“while she was researching North American children living in India”, research意为“
113、研究”,句子主语she与research之间为逻辑上的主动关系,故应用research的现在分词researching。故填researching。【64题详解】考查固定短语。句意:一般来说,第三文化的孩子从他们的跨文化经验中受益,他们通常会取得优异的学习成绩。句中涉及固定短语“benefit from”,意为“从中获益”,句中指“从跨文化经验中受益”,符合句意。故填from。【65题详解】考查名词。句意:然而,这一现象可能带来许多困难。句中many意为“许多的”,形容词词性,后接可数名词复数形式,difficulty意为“困难”,为可数名词,复数形式为difficulties。故填diffi
114、culties。【66题详解】考查固定短语。句意:第三文化的孩子可能无法完全适应他们的新环境。句中涉及固定短语“adapt oneself to”,意为“使自己适应或习惯于”,they的反身代词为themselves。故填themselves。【67题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:而且,他们经常发现很难建立新的友谊。句中涉及固定句型“find it hard to do sth.”,意为“发现做某事很难”,句中it为形式宾语,真正的宾语是后面的不定式结构,develop意为“发展”,动词词性,不定式符号to后接动词原形。故填to develop。【68题详解】考查形容词比较级。句意:此外,对于第
115、三文化的孩子来说,移居到一个新的国家比回到自己的祖国容易得多。根据句意和句中关键词than可知,句中把“移居到一个新的国家”和“回到自己的祖国”进行对比,应用比较级,easy意为“容易的”,形容词词性,比较级为easier。故填easier。【69题详解】考查定语从句。句意:例如,在澳大利亚生活多年后,Louis终于回到了她出生的国家。根据句意和句子结构可知,句子为定语从句,先行词为country,在从句中作地点状语,故应用关系副词where引导从句。故填where。【70题详解】考查连词。句意:她对当前的电视节目和时尚潮流一无所知。根据句中didnt可知,句子为否定句,句中TV shows和
116、fashion trends为并列关系,即对当前的电视节目“和”时尚潮流一无所知,否定句中应用连词or连接并列成分。故填or。第四部分 写作(共两节,满分35分)第一节 短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)71. 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的下列作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(),并在其下面写出该加的词。删除:把多余的词作斜线()划掉。修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意:1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词:2. 只允许修改10处,多者(从第l1
117、处起)不计分。I often went for a morning walk because the nature is at her best in the morning. The best place I like to go is the park where is not far away my house. In the morning, I can breathe the fresh air, hear the birds singing, but enjoy the beautiful sunshine. For the whole day, I will feel happi
118、er and more relaxing. My morning walk protect me from illnesses and improves my healthy. In my opinion, the morning walk is too healthy that I cant love them more.【答案】【解析】本文为记叙文。作者喜欢早上在附近的公园散步。因为散步时可以呼吸新鲜空气,听鸟儿歌唱,享受美丽的阳光。散步不仅让作者一整天快乐放松,还让身体更健康。1. 考查时态。句意:我经常早上散步,因为在早上大自然是最好的。根据句子中的时间状语“often”可知,本句要用
119、一般现在时,故把went改为go。2. 考查固定用法。nature意为“大自然,性质,天性,基本特点”,作为“大自然”讲时不加the;而如果是the nature,则意为“本质,基本特点”。本句中的nature意为“自然界”,故把the删除。3. 考查定语从句关系词。分析句子The best place I like to go is the park where is not far away from my house.可知,本句有一个定语从句,先行词是the park,在定语从句中做主语而不是做状语。因此where改为that /which。句意:我最喜欢去的地方是离我家不远的公园。4.
120、 考查固定用法。far from和 far away from为固定搭配,意为“远离,离远”。因此away改为from或者away后加 from。5. 考查连词。分析句子可知,“呼吸新鲜空气,听到鸟儿歌唱,和享受美丽的阳光”,这三个动词是并列关系,而非转折关系。故but改为and。6. 考查形容词。句意:一整天,我感到更快乐,更放松。relaxing意为“令人轻松的,放松的”,一般修饰物,而relaxed 意为“(人)轻松的,自在的”,一般修饰人。本句中主语“我”,是人,要用relaxed修饰。故relaxing 改为relaxed。7. 考查主谓一致。分析句子My morning walk
121、protect me from illnesses and improves my health可知,本句中的My morning walk是主语,是单数,所以谓语动词protect 要用单数形式,故把protect改为protects。8. 考查名词。本句中的形容词healthy作动词improves的宾语,被 my修饰,所以要用名词形式health作宾语。因此healthy改为health。9.考查固定搭配。sothat.为固定搭配,意为“如此.以致于.”。句意:在我看来,早上散步是如此健康,我非常喜欢它。因此把too改为so。10. 考查代词。句意:早上散步是太健康了以至于我很喜欢它(散
122、步)。这里代词代指walking,是不可数名词,因此把 them改为it。第二节 书面表达(满分25分)72. 假设你是李华。在刚结束的中学生英语演讲比赛中获得了第一名。准备比赛期间, 你得到了外教James的指导和帮助。请你根据以下要点提示给外教James写一封邮件。内容 包括:1. 获奖的消息2. 外教的帮助3. 感恩的心情 注意:1. 词数 80 左右;2. 可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。_【答案】Dear James,Im eagerly writing to inform you of my success in the English speech contest.Its inde
