3、 and dad.【答案】1. where 2. had earned 3. behind / after【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文，主要讲述自己为父母买圣诞节礼物的事。【1题详解】考查定语从句。句意：我从学校离开，沿着两旁有树的老路来到Cole的杂货店所在的那条街。根据句子结构，这里是定语从句，修饰先行词street，先行词在定语从句中作地点状语，故填where。【2题详解】考查时态。句意：我口袋里是我夏天前赚的一些硬币和纸币。根据上下文，圣诞节即将来临，我在本文开头所做的一些事都是用的一般现在时，这里讲夏天前攒的钱，是过去的过去，要用过去完成时。故填had earned。【3题详解】考
4、查副词。句意：当门在我后面关上时，（外面）车的噪音消失了。根据上下文，作者到商店去，打开门进去后，门在后面关上了。故填behind / after。【点睛】解语法填空，主要是结合上下文意思，或者句子结构，来确定所填的内容。比如第一题，根据上下文的意思，以及句子结构确定这里是定语从句，然后找到先行词street，先行词在定语从句中作地点状语，故填where。B阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个适当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。According to a recent study, dolphins have displayed certa

11、通过网络全球共享的数字影像。分析句子结构，同时结合上下文，这里的integrate是谓语动词，需要用一般现在时，故填integrates。【9题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：虽然数字敦煌还有很长的路要走，但是它对文化遗产的保护有着重要的意义。分析句子结构得知，这里是作way的定语，而且表示动作尚未发生，所以要用动词不定式，而且，have a long way to go意为有很长的路要走，符合题意，故填to go。【10题详解】考查形容词。句意：虽然数字敦煌还有很长的路要走，但是它对文化遗产的保护有着重要的意义。这里是作遗产的定语，修饰名词需要用形容词，故填cultural。第二节 完形填空（共

48、ly. That means he cant spend any time outside and hell get burn blisters (水疱) on his face even when he is driven to the hospital. Besides, there are a lot of things he cant do. He has trouble walking and only began talking one year ago. Brody cant eat or drink and has to wear a backpack 24/7 that co
49、ntains a pump that feeds him. “I cant even count the number of surgeries hes had since he was born,” Brodys mother said. “Hes spent probably half his life at the hospital.”When Make-A-Wish Connecticut, an organization that creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses, heard abou
50、t Brodys request to play outside, they immediately jumped into action. “Its the most simple, most sweet wish, just to play outside but it seems to be the most difficult to realize.” said Debbie Artinian, the manager of Make-A-Wish Connecticut.Artinian and her team determined that a temperature-contr
51、olled tent outside Brodys home where he could play and not be in the sun would be the best option. But they had to find a tent that could stand weather conditions like wind and snow and had the right material to block all UV rays. Luckily, Artinian found a company based in the United Kingdom that co
52、uld design and make the tent. Make-A-Wish Connecticut learnt that Brody loves the beach, even though he is not able to go into water because of his backpack. So they filled the tent with water toys and a kids pool filled with balls to make Brody feel as much as possible like hes out at the beach.Bro
53、dy got his first look at the tent earlier this summer. “When he walked out of the door and I saw his face, it was just everything,” said Artinian. “Now when Brody says Can I go out and play?, his mom can say, “Yes.” “Brody is now enjoying spending nearly all his time outside” in the tent.Its hard to

57、xperience may result in success.【答案】34. A 35. D 36. C 37. B【解析】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲了不能晒太阳的Brody，在Make-A-Wish Connecticut组织的帮助下，实现了到室外去玩的梦想。【34题详解】推理判断题。由第二段的一、二两句话可知，Brody是27周就产下的早产儿，因此他很容易过热，也很容易灼伤。那意味着他任何时候都不能在室外，而且，甚至当他被开车送往医院时，他都会脸上起水泡。由此可见，由于早产，这个小孩不能被暴露于阳光之下。故选A项。【35题详解】推理判断题。由第三段的“Its the most simple
58、, most sweet wish, just to play outside but it seems to be the most difficult to realize.”可知，Make-A-Wish Connecticut认为他的到室外玩这一梦想很简单，也很甜美的，然而（对于Brody）而言又是最难实现的。结合本段第一句话，我们知道这个组织主要是帮助生病严重的孩子实现梦想，所以他们会认为帮助实现这个孩子的梦想是值得的，但是有时富有挑战的，不是那么容易的，故选D项。【36题详解】推理判断题。由第四段“Make-A-Wish Connecticut learnt that Brody l
59、oves the beach, even though he is not able to go into water because of his backpack. So they filled the tent with water toys and a kids pool filled with balls to make Brody feel as much as possible like hes out at the beach.”可知，他们得知Brody喜欢沙滩，虽然他去不了，但他们还是贴心地为Brody营造了沙滩场景，让他身临其境。由此可以判断Artinian以及她的团队成员
60、真的很善解人意。故选C项。【37题详解】主旨大意题。结合全文，尤其是最后一段，可知，虽然很难让Brody的生活完全正常，但是Artinian 和她的团队尽他们所能，让Brody的生活正常。由此我们可以判断，在他们的帮助下，Brody的生活有了很大的变化。故选B项。CSurrounded by the sea off the coast in Mid-Norway, lies an island called Myken. This small island has about ten permanent residents, and for more than 50 years has bee
61、n supplied with electricity via a 32-kilometer undersea cable (电缆). A break that appeared in the cable last autumn resulted in two months without power, so the island community started looking into a better way of sourcing their electricity.“Myken is far out at sea, so as far as possible it should b
62、e taking care of things itself,” says Kyrre Sundseth, who is a hydrogen (氢) researcher in Norway and also the project manager for Mykens energy project. “This is why we want Myken to become entirely self-sufficient in energy. It is also important to take the environment into consideration,” he says.
63、Much points to the idea that the solution may lie in a Hydrogen plant, specifically tailored for small islands. The “raw materials” for hydrogen production come from nature itself in the form of the sun and wind. Researchers have calculated that energy costs will be lower by using hydrogen productio
64、n than the undersea cable option. And it is possible to store energy in the form of hydrogen for longer periods. This means that supplies will not have to rely on a lot of expensive batteries or external energy sources, even during periods when the sun isnt shining, or the wind isnt blowing.The Myke
65、n project has attracted several technology companies. They are currently working on a pilot project. The pilot involves experiments on the feasibility (可行性) of the hydrogen system in which electricity is generated from solar and wind sources. The electricity can be used immediately, but during perio
66、ds when all the energy generated is not required, the spare energy can be used to split seawater into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen can be stored in a tank, and used later to generate electricity. The pilot will help researchers know more about how effectively the system will work in the hydroge
67、n plant. Since the island has a distillery (酿酒厂), where the distillation (蒸馏) process relies on energy, a hydrogen plant on Myken offers an even greater environmental benefit. Spare heat from the hydrogen system can also be used for the heating part in the distillation process.“In Norway alone there
68、 are about 300 island inhabited all year round by small populations,” says Kyrre Sundseth. “All of these islands may be candidates for using this technology. In global terms were talking about 10,000 similar islands.”38. Why is a hydrogen plant suitable for Myken?A. It is perfect in size for small i
69、slands.B. It can send electricity to faraway places.C. It will restore local natural environment.D. It provides green and sustainable energy.39. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 4?A. The study on the energy storage.B. The test on the hydrogen system.C. The experiment on the raw materials.D.
70、The research on the innovation of the pilot.40. According to the passage, a hydrogen plant will _.A. produce purified seawaterB. prove more technically reliableC. contribute in more than one wayD. benefit from the distillation process41. What does Kyrre Sundseth think of the project?A. Promising.B.
71、Systematic.C. Irreplaceable.D. Time saving.【答案】38. D 39. B 40. C 41. A【解析】这是一篇说明文，主要讲了Myken利用自身地理条件，建立了氢气发电站，实现了自给自足的环保发电。【38题详解】推理判断题。由第三段的第二句话可知，氢气产生的“原材料”来自于大自然的太阳和风，结合第二段的第一句话，Myken在大海深处，须得自己照顾好自己。可见Myken地理位置的特殊性，接电缆发电耗资大，而且没有完全的保障，氢气发电站环保又耗资小，故选D项。【39题详解】主旨大意题。结合第四段的一、二两句可知，Myken的方案吸引了好几家科技公司，他
72、们目前在进行试行计划。也就是说，方案现在处于实验性阶段。故选B项。【40题详解】推理判断题。由第四段“”可知，在实验性阶段，研究者对氢气发电站的可行性进行了实验，发现氢气发电站除了发电可以有其他用处，由此可见，氢气发电站在许多方面都做出了贡献。故选C项。【41题详解】推理判断题。由最后一段可知，Kyrre Sundseth说，单单挪威就有大约300个岛长年只有少部分居住，这些岛也许适合使用这一技术的。从全球来看，大约有10000左右类似的岛。他的字里行间都表达了这一技术（建立氢气发电站）有很大的市场，即他认为这一方案有前途，有前景。故选A项。DOn January 15, 2009, the
73、crew of US Airways Flight 1549 experienced a never-in-a-lifetime event. Less than two minutes after takeoff, some birds found their way into the airplanes two engines and brought them to a sudden stop.

Lack of practice always causes us to judge problems in wrong ways. Doing the thinking ahead of time also helps you fire off the solution when its show time. This is
78、why you are advised to find the closest exit before the flight. And sometimes we arent prepared with all the knowledge we need. Lets say were on a hike and a bear shows up. What shall we do? Better to read suggestions on how to respond before heading into the wild.Performing in a crisis is becoming
79、more important for all of us for two reasons. Back in the good old days, the reliability of most anything we used or did was far less than it is today. Now think about what happens to our preparedness as the likelihood of something had happening reduces. Unless we practice what hardly ever happens,
80、our ability to respond when it does happen tends to slip away. Reliability can kill you. Also, the systems we use today are more complex. There are seldom moving parts in plain view that allow us to see when things are about to go wrong. Consequently, terrible situations can “come out of nowhere”. I

C【解析】本文是议论文，主要通过分析现在风险的普遍性，进而提醒人们应该提升对危机的预警意识。【42题详解】推理判断题。由第二段倒数第二句话“At the moment we need to be keenly aware of our surroundings, but our attention
86、goes to the scariest thing on the scene, leaving us unaware of the other sights, sounds, and even smells around us.”可知，当时，我们应该要意识到周边的环境，但我们往往关注的是现场最怕人的东西，使得我们看不到其他的东西，听不到什么声音，甚至闻不到什么味道。可见遇到危机时，我们关注的是最吓人的东西。所以，当面对持枪抢劫时，大部分人关注的是最怕人的那个东西枪。故选D项。【43题详解】词义猜测题。由第二段以及第三段的第一句话“These normal human reactions ca
87、n be reversed.”可知，在紧急情况下人们会害怕，恐慌，这些都是正常反应。这些正常反应可以反转，可以改变。结合下文，下文举例说明消防员通过学习可以降低自己的血压和心跳速度，让自己冷静。所以这里reverse跟change的意思接近，故选B项。【44题详解】推理判断题。由第四段“Unless we practice what hardly ever happens, our ability to respond when it does happen tends to slip away. Reliability can kill you. Also, the systems we u
88、se today are more complex. There are seldom moving parts in plain view that allow us to see when things are about to go wrong.”可知，如果我们不模拟一些不怎么发生的事情，当事情确实发生时，我们的应变能力逐渐下滑。这种依赖性足以致命。而且，我们现在使用的体系更加复杂，在事情即将发生之前，很少看出什么异象。结合上文，这里主要是说跟过去相比，我们更有更多的东西可以依赖，比如技术等，但太多的依赖对我们来说不是好事，反而会让我们失去警觉。所以说技术是双刃剑，好的方面是给我们带来便
89、利，不好的是降低我们的警觉度，进而降低我们解决问题的能力。故选C项。【45题详解】推理判断题。结合全文尤其是最后一段可知，随着科技融入到生活得方方面面，以及曾经的那些大的风险变成无数的小风险，风险可能会成为正常事件。我们应该学会冷静，认清问题，按照我们事先准备好的计划去执行。这是本文的中心段，由此可知，本文是主要呼吁要提前做好准备，要有预警意识。故选C项。第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。I work at a community library.

It allows people to meet and exchange ideas.Libraries are so much more than books and information. Yes, there are public computers, Internet acc
94、ess, movies, music, programs and a thousand other things. _49_ They are places where people feel safe and welcomed.

95、ds a quiet place to work or study.Some of the best memories of my childhood involve going to the local library and in speaking with many others in the neighborhood, they too have those same memories.

98、ould be further from the truth.这个（观点）离谱得很。作者不同意上面的观点，继而表明自己的观点：事实上，就是因为网络，公共图书馆才比以往更被需要。故选F项。【47题详解】根据上文We hear so much about “false news”.我们听到那么多“错误的新闻”，再根据下文Librarians are there to help.图书管理员可以帮助我们。可知，我们在网络上会获得很多信息，但是我们不知道这些信息是否准确，但是我们可以到公共图书馆去，那里的信息来源很可信。故选A项。【48题详解】根据下文It helps connect people wi
99、th the resources they need to find a job, continue their education, and learn new skills.它帮助人们连接找工作，继续教育以及学习新技能所需要的资源。可知，这一段是表明公共图书馆对人们生活的积极影响，即帮助改善人们的生活，而且放在首句，起中心句的作用。故选B项。【49题详解】根据本段第一句话（中心句）可知，本段的大意是公共图书馆不仅仅只是书本和信息。结合上文Yes, there are public computers, Internet access, movies, music, programs and
100、 a thousand other things.确实，那儿有公用电脑，网络联网，电影，音乐，节目以及其他好多东西，结合下文They are places where people feel safe and welcomed.他们也是让人们感到安全，感到受欢迎的地方。上文讲的是有形的方面，下文将无形的方面，中间缺少一个过渡，表明公共图书馆不仅仅是有形的，他们的意义和关联性不仅仅如此。故选D项。【50题详解】根据上文Some of the best memories of my childhood involve going to the local library and in speaki
101、ng with many others in the neighborhood, they too have those same memories. They are presently making those same memories with their children and their grandchildren.我童年时期的一些最好的回忆涉及的是去公共图书馆，并且跟附近的许多人闲谈，那些人也有（跟我一样的）回忆。他们现在也在跟他们的后代创造类似的回忆。可知，公共图书馆连接了人与人之间的关系。故选E项。第三部分：书面表达（共两节，35分）第一节 （15分）51.你的英国好友Ji
