45、 lives upstairs with his wife and their two daughters.Four years ago they all moved into a three-storey Victorian house in Bristol - one of a growing number of multigenerational families in the UK living together under the same roof. They share a front door and a washing machine, but Rita Whitehead
46、has her own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room on the ground floor.“We floated the idea to my mum of sharing at a house,” says Kathryn Whitehead. Rita cuts in: “We spoke more with Nick because I think its a big thing for Nick to live with his mother-in-law.”And what does Nick think? “From my
47、 standpoint, it all seems to work very well. Would I recommend it? Yes, I think I would.”Its hard to tell exactly how many people agree with him, but research indicates that the numbers have been rising for some time. Official reports suggest that the number of households with three generations livi
48、ng together had risen from 325,000 in 2001to 419,000 in 2013.Other varieties of multigenerational family are more common.

49、their parents, compared with 16% in 1991.The total number of all multigenerational households in Britain is thought to be about 1.8 million.Stories like that are more common in parts of the world where multigenerational living is more firmly rooted.

D【解析】这是一篇新闻报道。短文报道了在英国,由于年轻人负担不起离家的费用,而老年人又面临着被孤立的风险,越来越多的家庭选择住在一起,出现了多世同堂的现象。【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“ but Rita Whitehead has her own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room on the ground floor.”可知,但Rita在一楼有自己的厨房、浴室、卧室和客厅。由此可知,Ri
53、ta 在布里斯托尔的维多利亚式住宅中使用一楼。故选B项。【25题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段“And what does Nick think? “From my standpoint, it all seems to work very well. Would I recommend it? Yes, I think I would.”可知,尼克是怎么想的?“从我的角度来看,一切都很顺利。我推荐它吗?是的,我想我会推荐在一起居住的。”由此判断出,尼克对和和岳母合住房子的态度是积极的。故选A项。【26题详解】细节理解题。根据第六段“ Official reports suggest that

55、nal households in Britain is thought to be about 1.8 million.”可知,据说,25-34岁的年轻人中有20%和父母住在一起,而1991年这一比例为16%。据估计,英国多代同堂的家庭总数约为180万。由此可知,作者关于多世同堂家庭的论述基于发布的统计数据。故选C项。27题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据第一段“With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation(孤独), more families are choosing to
56、live together.”可知,由于年轻人负担不起离家的费用,而老年人又面临着被孤立的风险,越来越多的家庭选择住在一起。所以短文主要是关于英国生活方式的一种上升趋势。故选D项。CPlease take a few seconds and think of your personal biggest goal. Imagine telling someone you meet today what youre going to do. Imagine their congratulations and their high image of you. Doesnt it feel good
57、to say it out loud? Dont you feel one step closer already? Well, bad news: you should have kept your mouth shut, because that good feeling will make you less likely to do it.Any time you have a goal, there is some work that needs to be done to achieve it. Ideally, you would not be satisfied until yo
58、ud actually done the work. But when you tell someone your goal and he acknowledges(认可) it, psychologists have found its called a “social reality”. The mind is kind of tricked into feeling that its already done. And then, because youve felt that satisfaction, youre less motivated to do the actual har
59、d work necessary. This goes against the traditional wisdom that we should tell our friends our goals, right?In 1982, Peter Gollwitzer, a Professor of Psychology, wrote a whole book about this. And in 2009, he did some new tests that were published. It goes like this: 163 people across four separate
60、testseveryone wrote down their personal goal. Then half of them announced their commitment(许诺) to this goal to the room, and half didnt. Then everyone was given 45 minutes of work that would directly lead them towards their goal, but they were told that they could stop at any time. Now those who kep
61、t their mouths shut worked the entire 45 minutes on average, and when asked afterwards, said they felt they had a long way to go to achieve their goal. But those who had announced it quit after only 33 minutes on average, and when asked afterwards, said that they felt much closer to achieving their
62、goal.28. What do the words “social reality” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Completion of the goal.B. Necessary hard work.C. Peoples acknowledgement.D. A sense of satisfaction.29. What does Peter Gollwitzer try to tell us?A. Writing down the goal is very helpful.B. Achieving personal goal needs more time.C.
63、Keeping the goal secret makes people work harder.D. Making the goal public makes people less satisfied.30. How did Peter Gollwitzer prove his idea about peoples goal?A. By giving figures.B. By giving examples.C. By making a survey.D. By making comparison tests.31. What will probably happen if you te
64、ll your friends your goal?A. You will be more confident.B. You will not gain satisfaction.C. You are less likely to realize it.D. Youll be much more motivated.【答案】28. A 29. C 30. D 31. C【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了将目标告诉别人之后得到的满足感会让你不太可能完成目标,而将目标保密会让你更努力的完成目标。【28题详解】词义推测题。根据后文The mind is kind of tricked into fe
65、eling that its already done.可知,social reality是大脑被欺骗感觉目标已经完成了,也就是说social reality意味着目标的完成。故选A项。【29题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段Now those who kept their mouths shut worked the entire 45 minutes on average可知,Peter Gollwitzer通过做实验发现没有宣布自己的目标的人坚持完成目标的时间更长,这说明他想告诉人们将目标保密会让人们更加努力。故选C项。【30题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知,Peter Gollwit
66、zer做了一个实验,163个实验对象都写下了他们的个人目标,然后他们中的一半宣布了他们对这个目标的承诺,而一半没有。然后比较了两种实验对象的结果。这是一个对照实验。故选D项。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段中Well, bad news: you should have kept your mouth shut, because that good feeling will make you less likely to do it.可知,将目标告诉别人之后得到的满足感会让你不太可能完成目标,因此如果你将自己的目标告诉朋友,你会不太可能实现这个目标。故选C项。DTraveling by s
67、ubway can sometimes be quite an adventure, especially during rush hour. There are the times when you have to avoid cups of coffee that could spill on you. The smells of some passengers food are very strong, too.According to the Beijing subway passenger regulations, which went into effect on May 15th
68、, passengers except babies and the sick are no longer allowed to eat or drink on the subway. Violators (违规者) who do not stop after being asked to will be asked to get off. The violation will also be recorded in the violators credit record.Some support the rule. The reason is that the smell of food a
69、nd drink can annoy other passengers. “The smell of food fills the carriage, causing people discomfort, especially in the hot summer. Besides, eating on the subway produces rubbish. And on the subway, people often spill their drinks,” said Zheng Yiou, 17, a student from Hefei.However, others question
70、 this rule. “Some citizens live so far from their work places that they have limited time to have breakfast before they go to work. Eating while they travel saves them time and decreases the chance that they will be late for work,” He Songlin, a 17-year-old student from Chengdu said. “And some peopl
71、e, like those with low blood sugar levels, get sick if they cant eat when they must.”Other Chinese cities like Nanjing and Chengdu have similar regulations. Some foreign cities also ban eating and drinking on the subway. For example, eating and drinking have long been banned on the subway in Washing

76、较。【32题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“According to the Beijing subway passenger regulations, which went into effect on May 15th, passengers except babies and the sick are no longer allowed to eat or drink on the subway.”可知,根据5月15日生效的北京地铁乘客条例,除婴儿和病人外,乘客不得在地铁上吃东西、喝饮料。由此可知,5月15日,北京开始实施地铁乘客管理条例。故选A项。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第五
77、段最后一句“Singapore fines people who eat or drink on the subway up to 500 Singapore dollars.”可知,新加坡对在地铁上吃喝的人最高罚款500新元。由此可知,在新加坡,违反规定的乘客将被处以重罚。故选A项。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“Chen Yanyan, a professor from Beijing University of Technology, believed we should consider the need of some people to eat or drink on

79、效的北京地铁乘客条例,除婴儿和病人外,乘客不得在地铁上吃东西、喝饮料。下文围绕着这一事件展开了讨论,给出了人们对“地铁上禁止吃喝”的不同看法,由此可知,D选项“地铁上禁止吃喝”符合文章主旨,适合作为标题。故选D项。第三部分 语言知识运用(共三节, 满分55分)第一节(共20小题;每小题1.5分, 满分30分)阅读下面短文, 从短文后各题所给四个选项(A、B、C和D)中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Since I was 13 years old, I wanted to be a photographer.

122、时刻,我们将非常高兴。分析句意可知,此处前后表示并列关系需用连词and,but表示转折关系,不符合题意。故将but改为and。第二节 书面表达(满分25分)82. 假设你是某中学高二学生李华,经历过许多次成功与失败的你一定有很多感谢的话要对关爱你的人说。恰逢感恩节来临之际,请你根据以下要点给他(她)写一封感谢信。要点如下:1. 表达感激之情;2. 回顾对你的帮助;3. 表达祝愿。注意:1. 词数100左右;2. 可以适当增加细节, 以使行文连贯。Dear_,_Yours,Li Hua【答案】Dear Mom and Dad,How is everything going?
