Below are some statements about the strike.
23、 Mr. Mike Smith:It wasnt an easy decision,but we have been asking for a reasonable wage for years. Now at last people are beginning to listen to us. Were only asking for a 25 percent increase in our wages. Its a pity so many people have to be inconvenienced by our strike,but please dont blame us. Bl
24、ame the government for refusing our claim. Mr. Tom Brown:Its totally unreasonable to demand so much money when we are trying desperately to stop the prices going up. If wages go up,so do prices. If we give in to them,all the other unions would want more,with the inevitable result that the crisis (危机
25、) would become uncontrollable. We offer them a 10 percent increase. And thats already too much. My stand on the strike is to persuade the Union to see the reason. Mr. Bob Davis:Everybody will be hurt by this strike,including the electricity workers themselves. The economy will be destroyed and many
26、people will lose their jobs. Already people are saying that the big unions have too much power and shouldnt be allowed to strike. Of course the electricity workers want to get more money. Dont we all?Miss Stater:Lets face it. Its neither here nor there. The electricity workers are in a strong positi
27、on. Perhaps we cant do anything about it. What I say is:let them have their 250 dollars so they can return to work. I mean,the government wastes the taxpayers money all the time on unimportant things. How can anyone say 250 dollars is “too much”?Pop singers get more. Nurses get less. Its just one of
28、 those things. 【解题导语】本文介绍了四个人针对电力工人罢工陈述了不同的观点。21Who is most likely to be an employee in electricity industry?AMr. Mike Smith. BMr. Tom Brown. CMr. Bob Davis. DMiss Stater. 解析:选A细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句“Its a pity. . . refusing our claim. ”可知,Mike Smith先生认为,他们的罢工是因为政府拒绝他们的要求。据此可知,Mike Smith先生很可能是电力工人,故A项正确。22
29、The underlined word in Paragraph 3 most probably means _. Aavoidable BinspiringCautomatic Dsensitive解析:选C词义猜测题。根据该句中的“If we give in to them,all the other unions would want more” 可知,Tom Brown先生认为,如果他们对工人让步,则其他的工会将会提出更多的要求;结合该句中的“with the inevitable result that the crisis(危机) would become uncontrollab
30、le”可知,这必然会导致危机变得不可控制。据此可以判断,画线词意为“必然发生的”与C项含义相近,故C项正确。23We can learn from the text that _. Athe electricity workers wont achieve their goalBthe government wont meet the workers demandCthe strike caused little trouble for the societyDthe workers got little support from the society解析:选D推理判断题。通读第三至四段可知
31、,Tom Brown先生认为工资上涨势必导致物价上涨,故他们的工资上涨10%就已经很多了;Bob Davis先生认为,所有人在此次罢工中都会受到伤害,包括电力工人自己,而且工会权力太大,不应当批准罢工。据此可以判断,电力工人的要求几乎没有得到社会的支持,故D项正确。BWhen he looked at me,it was clear my father wasnt sure who I was. And as I looked back at him,I wasnt sure who he was,either. My father had just gone through heart su
32、rgery and 6 days in intensive care. Hed returned to the hospital where hed worked for 40 years. It was the hospital where all his children had been born. The doctors said that he may have a long period of confusion after the surgery. And because hes eightysix,it may be many months before he returns
33、to normal. Its also possible he may never be “normal” again. I sat there in this hospital room,spoonfeeding the man Ive seen as powerful and capable all my life. It felt like the full circle of life had come around us. It felt good to support him,yet part of me wanted to tell him to be “normal” agai
34、n. I wasnt sure if I was ready to accept the full meaning of it:that my father may never be that powerful and capable person again. Pain and suffering have visited my family,as they will visit all families. And while we hesitate to face pain and suffering,they have great lessons to teach us. Pain an
35、d suffering are well outside of the boundaries of our everyday life. When they come,they break these boundaries and turn our world upside down. We become a family with all of the others who have known the pain and suffering. And we have another chance to consider whats truly important in our lives.
36、This crisis will pass,and well all be changed by it. The healing hands of time will do their work. Im thankful that Ive told my father everything Ive wanted to say to him. And Im thankful to have my family to lean on during this difficult time. Well all be challenged by this to show more support,car
37、e,and love. This is as it should be. Sometimes,it takes a crisis to remind us of why were all here. 【解题导语】本文是一篇家庭生活类记叙文。在作者眼里,父亲一向都是强壮能干的,但是现在父亲年事已高,住院动了心脏手术后已经不认识作者了。作者感慨痛苦与苦难会让人变得更坚强,痛苦终将过去,家人是我们的依靠。24What do we know about the writers father from the passage?AHe will recover from his illness soon.
38、 BHe has been lying in bed for 40 years. CHe used to be a powerful and capable man.

This island has been home to many birds and seals. You may think this island is a paradise. In fact, th
43、e island is not famous for the seals or birds. However, the real stars are the great white sharks that leap out of the water to catch the seals they are hunting. You may think that there is no way for a 15foot long, 3,000pound shark to hurl its body out of the water and catch a seal in midair. Actua
44、lly, these sharks are called “Air Jaws”Over the years, the seals have gotten smarter. Now, they go out in groups of seven and eight to feed. They swim down on the sea floor, which gives them extra camouflage (掩饰). When they have to swim near the water surface, they swim in a zigzag (之字形的) pattern. B
45、ut with all these tricks, they can still be outwitted (以智取胜) by the sharks. Usually, the sharks will take one seal away from its group and force it to swim on the surface, where it is easy to hunt. Sometimes, the seal is lucky and gets away, but most of them die in the process of trying to survive.
46、Every year, tourists go to see these amazing animals leap out of the water, sometimes flinging (抛) their whole bodies into the air when they want to catch the seals. Some people even want to go into shark cages to see the action from below! This is the reason why this island attracts thousands of to

51、al Island闻名世界的原因。DIrelands Achill Island has always been a popular European tourist destination. However,since April in 2017,the small island of just 2,700 residents(居民) has gained worldwide fame thanks to the magical return of a beach that was washed away over three decades ago. The chain of events
52、 began in 1984 when residents of Dooagh,one of the settlements on the island,awoke to a surprising sight:their beautiful sandy beach had been washed away by strong Atlantic storms. There were only rocks and rock pools left. For about 34 years,only small amounts of sand returned to the once unspoiled
53、 shores. The areas tourism industry slowly declined,and the handful of beachside hotels,pubs,and restaurants gradually closed as well. Then around Easter in 2017,something magical happenedan unusual tenday tide blanketed the barren 300meter long rock beach with hundreds of tons of soft golden sand.
54、Scientists suspect that the sand had been gathering offshore for months and was transported to the beach by the high winds and powerful waves. The locals are delighted to have their beach back,especially as it is attracting thousands of visitors wishing to witness the power of nature,with their own
55、eyes. However,Sean Molloy,manager at Achill Tourism,cautions against going into the cold waters just yet,saying,“Because of the sand coming in,we dont know how safe the beach is now because currents (水流) could be changed and itll take a little bit of time. ” He instead recommends visitors enjoy the
56、soft sand and leave the swimming to the dolphins that frequent the area. Interestingly,this is not the first time Dooagh Beach has pulled a disappearing and reappearing act. It disappeared in the 1890s,for over 30 years,before returning in 1927However,the locals are optimistic that this time around,
57、the beautiful sand is here to stay. 【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了爱尔兰Achill岛消失的海滩时隔三十多年再次出现的事件。32What has brought Achill Island worldwide attention recently?AAn unusual storm.

BRestaurants developed slowly. CStorms attacked frequently. DRock pools disappeared completely. 解析:
59、选A细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The areas tourism industry slowly declined. . . gradually closed as well. ”可知,随着海滩的消失,在过去三十多年里Dooagh地区的旅游业逐渐衰落。34What does the underlined word“barren” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?ANoisy. BSoft. CBare. DGolden. 解析:选C词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“tenday tide blanketed the barren 300meter long rock
60、 beach with hundreds of tons of soft golden sand”可知,由于潮水的力量,300米长的岩石海滩被松软的金沙覆盖了。画线词修饰岩石海滩,结合文章内容可知,海滩消失之后,三十多年来岩石海滩表面什么都没有,所以画线词与bare同义,意为“空的,荒芜的”。35What should tourists avoid according to Sean Molloy?ASpoiling the shores. BGetting into the rock pools. CPlaying with dolphins. DSwimming near the beac
61、h. 解析:选D推理判断题。根据第四段中的“He instead recommends. . . frequent the area. ”可知,Sean Molloy建议游客享受松软的沙子,把游泳让给海豚,即他建议游客不要在海滩附近游泳。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Do People Need Small Talk to Be Happy?Psychologists (心理学家) have long said that connecting with others is an important p
