35、RED”下“The Jitterbug Flip is one of the most affordable cell phones on the market.”J(itterbug Flip是市场上最便宜的手机之一。)可知手机的买点是价格便宜,是大家可以负担的起的。故答案为B。【22题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The easy-to-use Jitterbug Flip has big buttons and an exclusive 5Star Urgent Response button on the keypad.”(易于使用Jitterbug Flip有大按钮和一个独家的5
36、星紧急响应按钮在键盘上。)可知具有一个独家的5星紧急响应按钮是本款手机的一个特色。故答案为A。【23题详解】细节理解题。根据文章“to order or learn more, call 1-855-521-7856 or visit BThree passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These pass
37、ions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasyecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of my life for a few hours for this j
38、oy. I have sought it, next, because it relieves lonelinessthat terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. I have sought it, finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguri
39、ng vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is whatat lastI have found.With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have wished to know why the stars shine.
40、And I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean (毕达哥拉斯) power by which number holds sway above the flux. A little of this, but not much, I have achieved.Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain re
41、verberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery (嘲弄) of what human life should be. I long to alleviate (减少) the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.This h
42、as been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.24. Which would be the best title of the essay?A. The suffering of life.B. The truth about love.C. The forces driving me.D. The power of knowledge.25. What does the author compare his lifes pa

44、ith?A. He regrets that he could not free himself of pity.B. Human love is ultimately disappointing.C. Heaven is merely a poetic invention.D. A loving person naturally wants to relieve the suffering of others.【答案】24. C 25. B 26. D 27. D【解析】本文是散文,主要介绍了三种简单却极其强烈的情感主宰着罗素的生活:对爱的渴望、对知识的追求、对人类痛苦的难以承受的怜悯之心。
45、【24题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段“These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.”这三种激情像狂风一样,把我吹得东飘西荡,在痛苦的深海上恣意妄为,迫使我濒临绝望的边缘。文章一开始提到了我追求的三种激情,后文说这三种激情迫使着我,它们是驱使我的力量,所以最佳标题是C项“驱使我的力量”,ABD只提到了激情的一方面,比较片面。故选C项
46、。【25题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“These passions, like great winds,”这些激情,像狂风一样。可知作者把激情比作狂风,故选B项。【26题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“first, because it brings ecstasynext, because it relieves lonelinessfinally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poet
47、s have imagined. ” 首先,因为它能让你欣喜若狂,其次,它能减轻你的孤独。最后,是因为在爱情的结合中,我看到圣徒和诗人们所想象的天空景象的神秘缩影。第二段提到了三个原因,分别对应ABC选项,D选项没有提及,故选D项。【27题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“But always pity brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people
48、a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery (嘲弄) of what human life should be. I long to alleviate (减少) the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.”但同情心总把我带回尘世。痛苦的呼号的回声在我心中回荡,饥饿的儿童,被压迫者折磨的受害者,被儿女视为可厌负担的无助的老人,以及充满孤寂、贫穷和痛苦的整个世界,都是对人类应有生活的嘲讽。我渴望减轻这些不幸
49、,但是我无能为力,而且我自己也深受其害。由此判断出作者同意一个有爱心的人自然想要减轻别人的痛苦。故选D项。CFor many years, school children in the US have been taken on “field trips” to cultural institutions such as museums of art. Educators arrange them in the belief that schools exist not only to teach economically useful skills, but also to produce
50、civilized young people who appreciate the art and culture. While there are parents who will take their children to cultural places in their free time, there are plenty of other children who will never have this kind of opportunity unless schools offer it. So you could say that taking school students
51、 on field trips is a means of giving everyone equal access to their cultural heritage.However, the attitude towards field trips in recent years is changing, with the number of tours organized for school groups falling significantly in museums all around the country. The most obvious reason is the is
52、sue of finance. Because there are increasing demands on their funds, after all, computers and sports facilities arent cheap, schools are forced to make a difficult choice about how to spend the limited money they have. Faced with this dilemma, field trips are an obvious thing to cut since they are s
53、een by many as a luxury.Additionally, the nature of these field days is also changing. Schools increasingly use trips to amusement parks or sporting events as a treat for students rather than an opportunity for cultural learning. This shift could have a basis in generational differences between teac
54、hers reasons for organizing days out of school. A recent survey conducted among 500 Arkansas teachers showed that older teachers were significantly more likely to take the primary purpose of a field trip as a learning experience than younger teachers, who view it as fun.Some evidence shows the trend
55、 of fewer trips may have a negative effect on childrens development. A research led by Jay Greene at Arkansas University found that students who received a tour of an art museum greatly improved their knowledge of and the ability to think critically about art. They also display stronger historical i
56、nterest and were more likely to visit cultural places in the future. The researchers warn that if schools cut field trips or switch to less educational destinations, valuable opportunities to broaden and enrich childrens learning experiences are lost.28. What is the initial purpose of field trips to
57、 cultural institutions?A. To teach students useful skills in economics.B. To make every student exposed to art and culture.C. To educate students to preserve cultural heritage.D. To encourage parents to take their children there.29. Which factor most probably leads to the trend of fewer field trips?
58、A. The drop in school funds.B. Students demand for fun.C. The dilemma of school finance.D. Teachers generational differences.30. What does the underlined phrase “This shift” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The switch from old generations to young generations.B. The switch from sporting events to cultural
59、 experiences.C. The change from an opportunity to learn to a treat to entertain.D. The change from educational destinations to luxurious attractions.31. What can be inferred about field trips from the research by Jay Greene?A. Students are rewarded with more cultural awareness.B. Amusement parks enr
60、ich childrens learning experiences.C. Cutting field trips is critical to the future of the museum.D. Field trips guarantee better future academic performance.【答案】28. B 29. C 30. C 31. A【解析】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了美国的学生都被带到艺术博物馆等文化机构进行“实地考察”给学生带来的好处及其这些活动减少的原因。【28题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“Educators arrange them in the
61、 belief that schools exist not only to teach economically useful skills, but also to produce civilized young people who appreciate the art and culture.” 可知,教育工作者之所以安排这些课程,是因为他们相信,学校的存在不仅是为了教授经济上有用的技能,而且也是为了培养能欣赏艺术和文化的文明年轻人。所以到文化机构实地考察的最初目的是让每个学生都能接触到艺术和文化。故选B项。【29题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“The most obvious
62、reason is the issue of finance. ”可知,学校组织的考察团数量大幅降低的最主要原因是学校财务的困境。故选C项。【30题详解】词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“Additionally, the nature of these field days is also changing. Schools increasingly use trips to amusement parks or sporting events as a treat for students rather than an opportunity for cultural learning. ”可知
63、,此外,这些实地考察日的性质也在改变。学校越来越多地把游乐园或体育赛事作为对学生的款待,而不是文化学习的机会。由此可知,This shift指的是从一个学习的机会变成一个款待学生的机会。故选C项。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段第二句、第三句“A research led by Jay Greene at Arkansas University found that students who received a tour of an art museum greatly improved their knowledge of and the ability to think criti
64、cally about art. They also display stronger historical interest and were more likely to visit cultural places in the future. ”可知,阿肯色大学的杰伊格林领导的一项研究发现,参观艺术博物馆的学生极大地提高了他们对艺术的知识和批判性思考的能力。他们还表现出更强烈的历史兴趣,未来更有可能参观文化场所。由此可推知,学生们得到的回报是更多的文化意识。故选A项。DPut five, eight, twelve or more people together in a room, a

66、ely challenging.Shared-interest is the lifeblood of teams, and only the most successful companies know how to foster it. But how?“Project Aristotle”, an experiment led by Abeer Dubey, a manager in Googles People Analytics division was conducted in 2012 to discover how to build the “perfect team.” Af
67、ter years of analyzing data and interviews from more than 180 teams across the company, Google found that the individual personalities in a team are not so relevant.“We had lots of data, but there was nothing showing that a mix of specific personality types or skills or backgrounds made any differen
68、ce. The who part of the equation didnt seem to matter,” Dubey said in an interview with The New York Times. Instead, the researchers found that there were five key characteristics of enhanced teams:Psychological safety: Everyone feels safe in taking risks, and that they wont be embarrassed or punish

These expectations must be challenging yet attainable.Meaning: Everyone has a sense of purpose in their work, for example, supporting family.Impact: Ever
70、yone sees that the result of their work actually contributes to the organizations overall goals.While Googles findings may be true to some extent, a large number of scientific studies have caused researchers outside of Googles lab to shockingly disagree. Thomas Chamorro-Premuzic, a professor of busi
71、ness psychology at Columbia University and author of the book “Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders?” and psychologist Dave Winsborough are among them. They both claim that personality, in particular, heavily affects the role of an individual within a team and is indeed a significant factor
72、 in what makes a team successful.Researchers found that the poorest-performing teams were 100 percent “pragmatic” (讲求实效的 ) and had 0 percent relationship-building traits. “Too often, organizations focus merely on the functional role and hope that good team performance somehow follows,” Chamorro-Prem
73、uzic and Winsborough co-wrote in a Harvard Business Review article. “This is why even the most expensive professional sports teams often fail to perform according to the individual talents of each player: There is no psychological synergy (协作). A more effective approach focuses as much on peoples pe
74、rsonalities as on their skills.”32. Why does the author mention the example of “dining out”?A. To emphasize the challenges of creating a common interest.B. To cater for the different tastes of people from all walks of life.C. To stress the importance of different individuals in teams.D. To get more
75、different people involved in building a team.33. What might be the least deciding factor of a perfect team according to Googles lab?A. Dependability.B. A sense of purpose.C. Psychological safety.D. Individual personalities.34. According to the last paragraph, why do the most expensive professional s
76、ports teams fail to perform?A. Because they care more about the result.B. Because they are not talented enough.C. Because they lack relationship building.D. Because they are vague about their roles.35. How is the passage mainly developed?A. By making basic assumptions.B. By giving a lot of detailed
77、examples.C. By analyzing causes and effects.D. By presenting contradictory findings.【答案】32. A 33. D 34. C 35. B【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章用很多具体实例说明了寻找到队员的共性,是团队成功的关键。【32题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段中“The larger the group, the more difficult it becomes. Its a lot like dining out with a bunch of friends. Where to go? Italian? V
78、egetarian? Steakhouse? Each person has their own appetite, which can make creating a “shared-interest” extremely challenging.”可知,队伍中人数越多,就越难找到共性。就像是朋友出去聚餐,众口难调,人越多越难确定大家都喜欢的食物。由此推知,此处举聚餐的例子来强调在团队中创造共同利益的挑战性,故选A。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“Google found that the individual personalities in a team are not so r
79、elevant.”可知,Google发现团队中的个人性格并不是那么重要,结合选项,故选D。【34题详解】细节理解题。根据第六段中“Researchers found that the poorest-performing teams were 100 percent “pragmatic” (讲求实效的 ) and had 0 percent relationship-building traits.”(研究发现表现最糟的团队,只讲求实效,一点都不关注人际关系的创建。)和“This is why even the most expensive professional sports teams
80、 often fail to perform according to the individual talents of each player: There is no psychological synergy (协作). ”(这就是为什么甚至最昂贵的专业团队常常失败的原因:没有心理协同)可知,最昂贵的专业团队失败是因为,组织者忽略了队员心理上的协作,不关注人际关系的建设。故选C。【35题详解】推理判断题。分析全文可知,作者列举了大量的实例来对文章主题进行说明,如第一段的多人共同就餐的例子,第三段中的“Project Aristotle亚里士多德项目”,和最后一段的只讲求实效不注重人际关
81、系建设的团队失败的例子。故选B。第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分, 满分 12.5 分)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。What makes you cry?

But it seems to be an automatic reaction when we get sad or upset. _37_ However, the feeling is the same your cheeks puff up, your eyes tighten and before you know it, tears are streaming down your face. Some of us may weep a little while
83、 others might cry like a baby.A study in the UK in 2017 found that women admitted they cry 72 times a year. This was, on average, more than men.

And, as therapist Joanna Cross put it, “crying is often a build-up of frustration and undealt-with situations and its
85、 a bit of a final straw moment.” She describes how someone might start weeping when theyre just asked to make a cup of tea. Actually, their stress has accumulated to the breaking point.But crying in the office or elsewhere can be an effective stress reliever. It can actually make you feel better._40
86、_Crying your eyes out shows others how you feel, so perhaps its a crying shame that more of us, particularly men, dont cry more often.A. Then how do we cope with it?B. This can be where emotions run high.C. People reach their breaking point in different ways.D. We all have the power to cry, but is t
87、hat a good thing?E. Maybe it dissolves or clears the negative feelings youve had.F. What brings about this reaction differs from person to person.G.

88、解】上文提到“Being moved by a sad movie, waving a loved one off, or getting emotional after splitting up with your partner can all cause tears to roll down our face”(被电影感动,和爱人分离,与搭档分道扬镳都会导致眼泪流下脸庞),本空承上启下,引出文章主题,所以根据下文内容,“crying in the office or elsewhere can be an effective stress reliever. ”(在办公室或其他地方哭可能
89、是一种有效的减压方式),可知本文主要讲哭是所有人的反应,并且哭对人们有好处,所以本空目的在于引出此话题。故选D。【37题详解】根据上句“ it seems to be an automatic reaction when we get sad or upset”(哭是我们伤心难过时的自动反应),所以本空承接上句,F项句意“造成人们伤心难过的原因是各不相同的”,符合语境。故选F。【38题详解】根据上句“women admitted they cry 72 times a year. This was, on average, more than men. Adam Rutherford, lea
90、d researcher, says that the result has been pretty much consistent with previous research.”(女性承认,她们一年哭72次,这平均来说比男人要多。调查者说这个结果和以前的研究结果是一致的),本空承上启下,下句“Are they just more embarrassed about showing their true feelings?”(他们对于表达自己真实的情感会更尴尬吗),所以本空应该是讲男人哭的次数少的原因。故选G。【39题详解】上句提到“One place where we experience
91、 emotional and tearful outbursts is in the workplace”(我们经历情绪爆发的地点之一是在工作地),本空承接上文,应该接着讲工作地对人们情绪的影响,所以B项句意“工作地是情绪上涨之地”符合句意。故B项符合语境。故选B。【40题详解】根据上句“ It can actually make you feel better.”(哭会让你感觉更好),本空承上启下,应该接着讲哭对于人们的好处,所以E项句意“哭能融化或清除你的消极情感”符合句意。故选E。【点睛】第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分 30 分)第一节(共 15 小题;每小题 1 分,满分 15 分)
