3、money to help the plight of underprivileged people. She has_4_ (effect) used her stardom to highlight world problems.【答案】1. to follow 2. off 3. filming 4. effectively【解析】本段文章是说明文， 介绍了电影明星Angelina的有关情况。【1题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：她热爱电影，并开始上表演课，追逐她成为电影明星的梦想。根据句意，此处用不定式作状语, 表示目的，意思为“为了”。故填to follow。【2题详解】考查固定短语。句
4、意：她的电影生涯在1997年开始腾飞，几年后她就赢得了奥斯卡奖。短语 take off意思为“（飞机）起飞， 脱下，（事业等）突飞猛进，开始腾飞”。故填off。【3题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意： 她在柬埔寨拍摄时参与了人道主义工作。分析句子结构， 此处是状语从句的省略形式；句子主语she和film之间为逻辑上的主动关系，因此用现在分词形式。故填filming。【4题详解】考查副词。句意：她有效地利用她的明星身份来突出世界问题。修饰谓语动词used，应用副词。故填effectively。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

7、博客的风暴，越来越多的中国年轻人利用视频博客分享他们的每一天。【5题详解】考查时态。句意：在过去的一年里，视频博客在中国掀起了一场风暴，越来越多的中国年轻人受到启发，拿起相机，在微博或微信时刻上讲述他们一天中的细节。时间状语over the past year意思为“在过去的一年里”，常和现在完成时连用；take是不规则变化动词，过去分词为taken。故填has taken。【6题详解】考查时态和语态。句意：据一位年轻中国音乐家欧阳娜娜说，视频博客的另一个关键方面是内容基于日常生活。短语be based on “以为基础”；全文叙述的是现在的情况，是一般现在时，因此用一般现在时的被动语态。故填
8、is based。【7题详解】考查固定短语。句意：虽然视频博客很普通，但每天有多达1500万粉丝分享她的惊喜。短语on a daily basis 意思为“每天”。故填on。【点睛】与现在完成时连用的时间状语现在完成时表示“已经完成动作”，常与下面的时间状语连用。1.表示不确定的过去时间的时间状语 这类时间状语有：just，already，yet，lately，recently 等。 Have you read this story book yet？ 你还没有看完这本书吗？A ban on the importation of drugs had been issued recently.
9、最近颁布了一条关于禁止运输毒品的禁令。2.表示频度的时间状语 这类时间状语有：ever，never，often，always，several times等 They have been to that village several times.他们去过那个村子几次。3.表示一段时间的时间状语 这类时间状语有：these few days， for +一段时间，since（自从）等，so far（到目前为止），up to now（到目前为止）， over/ in /during the past/last + 时间段（在过去的几年/月/十年里），in recent years(近年来)等。 I
10、 have taught here since 1985. 我从1985年以来就在这里教书。 So far we have known each other for eight years。到目前为止我们认识有8年了。如本题第1小题，时间状语over the past year意思为“在过去的一年里”，常与现在完成时连用，因此应填has taken。C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。Although it might not always feel like it, life is ridiculo

Because/As/Since 9. something 10. either【解析】本段文章是议论文，论述了因为生命是短暂的，所以要创造要一些有价值的东西。【8题详解】考查从属连词。句意：因为它太短暂了
13、，在你有限的时间里，我建议你创造一些有价值的东西。根据句意，前面一句表示原因“因为生命太短暂”，后一句表示结果。因此用Because/As/Since引导原因状语从句。故填Because/As/Since。【9题详解】考查代词。句意：如果你敢的话，（创造）一些令人惊奇的东西。分析句意，根据前一句的“I recommend creating something worthwhile”，此处是省略句，完整句子为“（I recommend creating ）something amazing”。故填something。【10题详解】考查并列结构。句意：每一天、每一周、每一个月、每一年，你都有机会要
14、么去一点一点地改进它，要么坐视它被侵蚀。分析句子结构，此处是并列结构eitheror，意思为“要么要么， 或者或者”。故填either。第二节 完形填空（共 20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，共 30 分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项， 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。完型填空（共20小题；阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从3655各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上涂黑。When I was about five years old, I used to watch a bird in the skies of south

51、worryC. To bring him disappointmentD. To get him into trouble【答案】35. C 36. B 37. A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇电子邮件。邮件讲的是主人公报名了一个英国的暑期假日学校，但是去了之后发现环境很差，与介绍人描述的丝毫不符，为了向其表达不满，写了这封邮件。【35题详解】细节理解题。邮件第一句I am writing to tell you my deep disappointment for my experience at Lingua Nova English summer school in the first tw
52、o weeks of July.阐述写信是为了表达自己对Lingua Nova英语暑期学校的经历深感失望。与C 选项的叙述相符。【36题详解】细节理解题。本题定位到文章的第三段Finally, on our one trip into the city center our guide readily admitted that she was not from Edinburgh, and had in fact never visited the city before.（最后，在我们去市中心的一次旅行中，我们的“导游”爽快地承认她不是来自爱丁堡，事实上以前从未去过这个城市。）从下文可知，
53、作者在城市里no map and told to “checking things out”可知，导游不合格，与第二个选项描述相符。故选B。【37题详解】推理判断题。由文章最后一段可知，作者想向Mallory 要回住宿费用，并且全文都在说作者在英国的情况与之前介绍不符，所以是想让介绍人感到愧疚。故选A。【名师点睛】本文小题1、2都属于细节理解题。这一题型可以通过正选法与排除法解题。正选法即根据所读材料内容从正面选择最佳答案。如果在有些情况下从正面选择答案有困难，考生则可以考虑选用排除法，即排除四个选项中的三个错误选项，那么剩下的选项即为正确答案。排除法是解答阅读理解题的常用方法，对于那些不合情
54、理或荒谬的选项、与短文内容相反的选项、与短文内容不相关的选项、虽在短文中出现但答非所问的选项，以及不是问题的主要因素的选项等，都可以采用排除法。考生可以遵循如下“三级思考”的方法排除干扰项：(1) 如果干扰项明显与文章相矛盾，即为“误”，可以直接排除。(2) 如果干扰项与文章内容不矛盾，但在原文中没有依据，这种脱离原文的“虚”的选项也可以排除。(3)有些干扰项似乎很有道理，文中也能找到相关的依据，但它并不能完全满足题目的要求，未能以文章的主题、作者的思维模式为出发点，未能充分体现严谨性和最大的合理性，这种虽没错但不是最佳答案的“偏”选项也可以排除。只要考生经过“是否矛盾? (误否) 是否有依据
55、? (虚否?) 是否以偏概全 (偏否?)”的逐级思考过程来分析和甄别每一个选项，那么解题的正确率就会得以提高。正确的答案应该是与原文意义一致的选项，或是经过“三级思考”仍不能排除的选项。COn March 28th, The New York Times will begin charging all but the most infrequent users to read articles online.In a letter to readers, Arthur Sulzberger, Jr., the publisher of the paper, laid out the detai
56、ls of the paywall, which he said will go into effect immediately in Canada and on March 28th for the rest of the world. He called the move “an important step that we hope you will see as an investment in The New York Times, one that will strengthen our ability to provide high-quality journalism to r
57、eaders around the world and on any platform.”Sulzberger said that readers will be able to read 20 articles per month at no charge. Once they click on the 21st piece, however, theyll be presented with three payment options: $15 for four weeks of online and mobile application access, $20 for access to
58、 the site and the iPad application, or $35 for access to everything. People who already receive the printed paper through home delivery will enjoy free and unlimited access to The New York Times on all platforms.These details largely agree with earlier reports on how the paywall would work. The New
59、York Times had made it clear that it did not want to imitate the total paywalls put into effect by papers such as The Times of London and Newsday, which block access to all contents unless the reader pays.The paper also signaled that it wants to stay relevant in the social media world. According to
60、Sulzbergers announcement, people who come to The New York Times site from Facebook, Twitter or from blogs will be able to read those articles even if they have gone over their monthly limit.However, Sulzberger said that a limit will be placed on “some search engines”, meaning that after readers have
61、 accessed a certain number of articles from search engines, any further articles they access from there will be added to their monthly count. It was reported that the only search engine that will be affected this way is Google, where there will be a five-article limit. This marks a clear attempt by
62、The New York Times to close what could be a giant loophole ( 漏 洞 ), since so much online traffic is directed through Google. But it also presents a risk for the paper for the same reason.Sulzberger seems well aware of the risk. “The challenge now is to put a price on our work without walling ourselv

64、ork Times charge their online readers?A. It is the only way to offer better service to its readers.B. It wants to stay relevant in the social media world.C. It has too many readers coming from the other sites.D. It is seeking new financial sources for its development.40. Which group of people cannot

66、rk Times more competition with the other media.B. It may lead to a giant loophole online for The New York Times.C. It may result in huge drops in papers online readership.D. It may block the readers from the other websites.【答案】38. C 39. D 40. C 41. C【解析】本文是新闻报道。文章报道了纽约时报将开始对在线阅读文章收费，介绍了收费的原因、收费的标准以及
67、付费门槛将给纽约时报带来的挑战。【38题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段中“On March 28th, the New York Times will begin charging all but the most infrequent users to read articles online”可知，这篇文章是告诉大家一则消息：纽约时报将开始对所有在线阅读文章的用户收费，只有最不经常阅读的用户除外。故选C项。【39题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中“He called the move an important step that we hope you will see as an inves
68、tment in the Times, one that will strengthen our ability to provide high-quality journalism to readers around the world and on any platform(他称这一举措是“一个重要的措施，我们希望你能将其视为对纽约时报的投资，这将加强我们为世界各地的读者在任何平台上提供高质量新闻的能力)”可知，纽约时报向网上用户收费是为其更好的发展寻求资金来源。故选D项。【40题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“It was reported that the only search
69、engine that will be affected this way is Google, where there will be a five-article limit（据报道，唯一会受到这种影响的搜索引擎是谷歌，（在谷歌引擎）将有五篇文章的限制）”可知，使用谷歌搜索引擎的人将被限制阅读纽约时报文章的数量。故选C项。【41题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“Sulzberger seems well aware of the risk. adding that The New York Times must continue to engage with the widest p
70、ossible audience （Sulzberger似乎很清楚这种风险。他还说，纽约时报必须继续与尽可能多地读者接触）”可以推断，Sulzberger认为付费门槛给纽约时报带来的挑战是可能会导致网上的用户数量下降，因此强调要与尽可能多地读者接触。故选C项。DEvery time the results of the international PISA test are released, the United States gets another opportunity to whip itself for students unsatisfying performance.PISA

The students are given very little homework. The nations scores and ranking have slid over the past decade, but it still consistently outshi

Singapores curriculum is highly scripted and pretty much the same across the nation something that the Obama administration hoped to achieve through its Common Core curriculum. Teachers con

South Korean families depend heavily on private tutoring to help their children perform well on high-stakes tests. Students in these two countries also outperform American students on the PISA test.But if Finland,
76、Singapore and South Korea are all doing better than America, that suggests there may be a factor at play other than how students are taught. And indeed there is something that all three of these nations, and every other country that outranks America on the PISA test, have in common: lower rates of c

But when it comes to measuring the effects of income inequality, PISA offers a powerful lesson for the United States: If they want a better educated population, they cannot ignore their culpability in allowing so many children to grow up in poverty.42.

B【解析】本文是议论文。美国在PISA的测试中排名不高。斯坦福大学研究人员得出结论：美国的平均表现相对较低，部分原因是社会阶层分布最底层的考生多。PISA为美国提供了一个教训：如果他们想要一个受过更好教育的人口，他们就不能忽视在贫困中成长的儿童。【42题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中“PISA is the Program for International Student Assessment It allows critics on both sides of the school-reform debate to
87、 peer at the results of other nations, compare them to the U.S. outcomes and find examples that appear to confirm their own beliefs about why our 15-year-olds are not at the best in science, math and reading（PISA是国际学生评估方案，它允许批评者对其他国家的结果进行评价，将它们与美国的结果进行比较，并找到一些例子来证实他们自己的观念“为什么我们的15岁孩子在科学、数学和阅读方面不是最好的
88、”）”可以推断，PISA反映了孩子在科学、数学和阅读方面的能力。故选B项。【43题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段中“South Korean families depend heavily on private tutoring to help their children perform well on high-stakes tests（韩国家庭严重依赖私人辅导，以帮助他们的孩子在高风险考试中表现良好）”可以推断，对于韩国学生来说，在学校通过老师学习是远远不够的。故选D项。【44题详解】词句猜测题。第六段中提到“U.S. average performance appears to be r
89、elatively low partly because we have so many more test takers from the bottom of the social class distribution（美国的平均表现似乎相对较低，部分原因是很多考生来自于社会阶层的最底层）”。划线词it所在的句意为“除非他们愿意面对这个问题并采取大胆的措施，否则美国的排名将永远是有限的”。因此可以推测，it指代the problem，而the problem指上一句中的“poverty equates to lower academic performance（贫困就等同于学习表现差）”，也
90、指上文中的“we have so many more test takers from the bottom of the social class distribution”。故选B项。【45题详解】推理判断题。美国在PISA的测试中排名不高。根据文章第六段“U.S. average performance appears to be relatively low partly because we have so many more test takers from the bottom of the social class distribution（美国的平均表现相对较低，部分原因是社

Instead of just finding a soft area of grass to go number two, they make a whol
93、e ritual out of it, spinning in a circle before finally squatting. Luckily, the ultimate pet owners question may finally have been answered.A few theories have circulated about why dogs might circle before pooping, and most are similar to the reasons they spin before lying down. Trampling around in
94、a circle would flatten the grass around, which would keep tall blades from trapping their waste and hitting their butt while they poop._46_But Czech researcher Hynek Burda didnt quite buy into those theories._47_ And if they were scanning their environment, keeping still to listen and sniff would be
95、 more effective than giving the area a quick once-over. Instead, Burda suggested that dogs spin to get a feel for the Earths magnetic pull.The Earth has a magnetic field around it protecting it from radiation from space, and some animals seem to use it to get a sense of where its North and South pol
96、es are._48_ In 2013, Burda published a study in the journal Frontiers in Zoology suggesting dogs have a strong internal compass, too. He and his team spent two years watching 70 dogs poop and pee and recording which way they faced and how strong the magnetic field was.As it turns out, when the magne
97、tic field was calm, dogs preferred to poop facing either north or south._49_ The pattern couldnt explain why dogs like facing the Earths poles, but the researchers think it might help them remember where they marked their territory. “Doing so, and calibrating his magnetic compass, is probably easier
98、 for him when being aligned with the magnetic field,” Burda told the Washington Post. _50_So before you roll your eyes when your dog takes ages to do his business, remember that pet might just be getting scientific about his potty spot.A. For instance, its how birds know which way to migrate.B. When

101、便前转圈是在感受地球的磁场。当磁场平静时，狗喜欢向北或向南大便。当磁场不那么稳定时，他们就会面对任何方向大便。而这可能会帮助狗记住在哪里标记了自己的领地。【46题详解】该段首句提到“A few theories have circulated”，该段是关于狗大便前为什么转圈流传的几个解释。其中一个解释是“most are similar to the reasons they spin before lying down”；选项G意思为：另一种解释可能是，它们在完全占据大便的领地之前看看有没有蛇和捕食者。选项G是顺承上文的话题。故选G项。【47题详解】选项D意思为：狗是从狼进化而来的，狼不需要
102、太担心高大的草。设空处后的内容是解释为什么狗不需要转圈，因为狗可以通过听或者嗅的方式。故选D项。【48题详解】设空处前一句提到“一些动物似乎用磁场来了解南北极在哪里”。选项A意思为：例如，这就是鸟类知道向什么方向迁徙的方法。选项A是对前一句内容的进一步举例说明。故选A项。【49题详解】选项B意思为：当磁场不那么稳定时，他们就会面向任何方向。根据选项A中“When the magnetic field was less stable”和前一句中“when the magnetic field was calm”可知，这两句是并列句，都是关于同一个话题。故选B项。【50题详解】设空处上文提到“bu
103、t the researchers think it might help them remember where they marked their territory（但研究人员认为，这可能有助于它们记住在哪儿标记了自己领地）”；选项F意思为：如果他们能记住他们面对的方向，他们可能会更容易找到那个地点。选项F是顺承上文的话题。故选F项。第三部分：书面表达（共两节，35 分） 第一节 (15 分)51.假如你是高三学生李华，你们班外教要求每一位同学开学第一节课用英语向班级同学们汇报各自的寒假生活。请根据以下提示内容写一篇发言稿，内容主要包括：1. 简要介绍你的寒假生活；2. 你和家人如何过春
