9、. Dedieu has just returned from Liberia, where MSF is working to help reopen the hospitals. Her job is to make sure that clean parts of the hospitals are kept separate from areas that are polluted. She says the situation there is a complete disaster. Even during the war, I havent seen a health syste
10、m close so fast. The hospitals are empty because the health staff just arent there, she says. Dedieu was in Liberia during that countrys civil war in 2003. MSF was founded in 1971 by a group of doctors and journalists. I remember being criticized in the 1980s as a medical cowboy, says Rony Brauman,
11、who headed MSF from 1982 to 1994. We were blamed for riding in, distributing our pills and creating unreasonable expectations. But Brauman says thats the nature of health care. We raise expectations; we create new diseases by treating old diseases, he says. Thats how it works in general. It was a ki
12、nd of fight. MSF won that fight, says Brauman. MSF doctor Cameron Bopp says hes worked with other humanitarian organizations but always missed the level of devotion and motivation hes found at MSF. The main thing thats different about MSF from the point of view of someone like me who goes out and wo
13、rks in the field is that when theres an emergency, other organizations say, Whoa, this is an emergency. Were gonna be there as soon as we get funding. And MSF has the funding, he says.

After a
17、ll, theyve likely spent the last several decades devoting their time and energy to otherstheir boss, coworkers, clients and kids. Now, they think, its time to finally focus on themselves, and thats true to an extent. But their post-work life still needs structure and purposes. Without these two key
18、pillars(支柱), life can get boring and lonely very quickly. One very good way to fill the blank is to give time and energy to others through volunteering. Sure, they wont walk away with a paycheck, but the simple act of volunteering their time for a cause comes with numerous other very vital benefits.
19、 For retirees Ross and Carol Chenot, volunteering has made their golden years incredibly fulfilling. Ross volunteers for GleanSLO, an organization affiliated (隶属) with the local food bank. Because we live in a rich agricultural area, GleanSLOs volunteers go into the fields or orchards to pick the le
20、ftover produce and donate it to the food bank, Ross explains. Literally tons and tons of food get donated that way. Carol put together a series of neighborhood learning sessionscalled Neighborly Uthrough which people can learn a new skill or develop a new hobby. The sessions range in topics, includi
21、ng computers, crafts, cooking, volunteerism, travel, entertainment and self-improvement. So far, Carol says shes conducted 75 classes and has had more than 650 people register.

24、 to spend the golden retirement years.D.A value of generosity passed down to the next generations.D Transportation and communication networks bring people together. Yet sometimes people themselves bring forth barriers to transportation and communication. In some countries, laws stop people from movi
25、ng freely from place to place. Over the centuries, many groups of people have been denied the freedom to travel because of their race, religion, or nationality. In the MiddleAges, for example, Jews were often forbidden to move about freely within certain cities. South Africas government used to requ
26、ire black Africans to carry passes when they travelled within the country. Some governments required all civilians to carry identification papers and to report to government officials whenever they moved. Countries set up customs posts at their borders. Foreign travellers must go through a customs i
27、nspection before they are allowed to travel in the country. Usually travellers have to carry special papers such as passports and visas (签证). Some countries even limit the number of visitors to their country each year. Others allow tourists to visit only certain areas of the country, or they may req
28、uire that travellers be with an official guide at all times during their stay. Many of those barriers to travel also act as barriers to communication. When two governments have divisions on important matters, they usually do not want their civilians to exchange news or ideas freely. Countries often
29、try to keep military or industrial information secret. Today, people have the ability to travel, to communicate, and to transport goods more quickly and easily than ever before. Natural barriers that were difficult or dangerous to cross a hundred years ago can now be crossed easily. The barriers tha
30、t people themselves make are not so easy to overcome. But in spite of all the different kinds of barriers, people continue to enjoy travel and the exchange of goods and ideas.1.The examples in Paragraph 2 are used to tell the readers that _.A.people have been allowed to travel freely within the coun
31、tryB.people have not been permitted to travel freely for various reasonsC.travellers have to carry special papers such as passports and visasD.customs posts are necessary at the borders of the countries2.Some governments limit the freedom of communication because _.A.they intend to keep their nation

It looked like he was carrying all of his books. I thought to myself: Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday?
55、He must really be a nerd (书呆子). As I was walking, I saw a bunch of kids running toward him. They ran at him, knocking all his books out of his arms and tripping him up so he landed in the dirt. His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him. He looked up and I saw
56、the terrible sadness in his eyes. So, I jogged to him and as he crawled around looking for his glasses, I saw a tear in his eye. As I handed him his glasses, he said, Thanks! There was a big smile on his face. It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude. We talked all the way home, and I c

62、节理解题。解题关键在于认真审题,抓住题干中的关键信息with gift pack from China。由Annual Subscription with Gift Pack下的信息可知,带有礼包的年度订阅费用为:Europe 60 Rest of World 70,故答案为D项。 B.答案：1-4.ADDB解析：1.推理判断题。第一段主要呈现了无国界医生组织的一个分发中心为埃博拉病毒感染国家配发物资的场景,其目的是展示该组织的一项功能,而不是为了展示埃博拉病毒的严重,因此B项不正确。C项“探究无国界医生组织的一个分发中心”与D项“鼓励向受埃博拉病毒影响的国家捐赠”与文意不符。故选A项。2.细
63、节理解题。根据第二段中的Her job is to make sure that clean parts of the hospitals are kept separate from areas that are polluted.可知,Kathy Dedieu的工作是确保医院的清洁区和污染区是分开的,即预防医院被污染。由第二段中的Dedieu has just returned from Liberia可以判断,Dedieu目前不在利比里亚,因此A项错误;由第二段的最后一句话可知,2003年利比里亚国内战争爆发时,Dedieu在利比里亚,并没有提到她在当兵,因此C项错误;由第三段第一句话可
64、以看出,无国界医生组织并不是由Dedieu建立的,因此B项错误。故选D项。3.推理判断题。根据第三段中的being criticized in the 1980s和were blamed可知,无国界医生组织成立之初是不被人们接受的。hopeful充满希望的;curious好奇的;uncaring冷漠的;disapproving不赞同的。故选D项。4.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的when theres an emergency. do whats really needed可知,Cameron Bopp认为无国界医生组织不同于其他人道主义组织最主要的一点是它有许多可靠的捐赠者。该组织的赞助不是来
65、自政府,而是来自捐赠者,因此D项错误;A、C两项从Cameron Bopp所说的话中看不出,与文意不符。故选B项。 C.答案：1-4.BADA解析：1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的But their post-work life still needs structure and purposes. Without these two key pillars(支柱), life can get boring and lonely very quickly.可知,退休后的生活需要周密安排和目标,故选B项。2.细节理解题。根据第二段的第一句One very good way to fill the
66、blank is to give time and energy to others through volunteering.可知,退休人员可通过志愿者工作来打发空闲时间。B项“照看孩子”,C项“散步”以及D项“努力工作”都不符合文意。故选A项。3.推理判断题。根据第三段的第一句For retirees Ross and Carol Chenot, volunteering has made their golden years incredibly fulfilling.和第三段中对Ross所做的志愿者工作的描述及最后一段对Carol所做的志愿者工作的描述可推知,志愿者工作使Ross和Ca
67、rol对她们的退休生活感到满意。故选D项。4.主旨大意题。根据全文内容可知,退休人员退休后,生活很快就会变得无聊和孤独;志愿者工作不但可以给他人带来帮助,而且能使退休后的生活变得充实且有意义。B项“生活很快就会变得无聊和孤独”、C项“在哪里度过黄金退休时光”以及D项“慷慨的价值代代相传”三个选项都不是文章主要谈论的话题。故选A项。 D.答案：1-4.BACA解析：1.细节理解题。文章第二段第一句为第二段的主题句,然后举例说明由于种族、宗教、国籍等多种原因,有些人的行动自由受到限制。故选B项。2.细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句可知,有些政府限制信息交流自由是为了保守军事与工业机密。故选A项。
68、B项“他们认为这样的自由会导致战争”,文中没有提到关于战争的信息;C项“他们经常在重要的事情上产生分歧”,根据When two governments have divisions on important matters, they usually do not want their civilians to exchange news or ideas freely.可知,当两个政府产生分歧时,他们通常不想让老百姓自由交流信息和观点,但不是限制信息交流自由的原因;D项“他们想显示他们对沟通的管辖权”在文中没有提到,故排除B、C、D这三项。3.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的Natural ba
69、rriers that were difficult or dangerous to cross a hundred years ago can now be crossed easily. The barriers that people themselves make are not so easy to overcome.可推断,一百年前很难或很危险去跨越的自然障碍在今天却变得很容易跨越,人为的障碍很难被克服,故选C项。A项“人们并不关心消除国家之间的障碍”与D项“障碍应该被视为理所当然,因为它们总是存在”在文中未提到;B项“人们无法消除自己造成的障碍”说法太绝对,故排除A、B、D三项。
70、4.主旨大意题。通读全文,文章主要围绕人为障碍阻碍人际交流这一话题展开,故选A项。B.交流的功能;C.交通的限制;D.人类社会的进步。第二节答案：CADGE解析：本文是一篇说明文。很多老年人需要志愿者服务,本文介绍了为老年人提供志愿者服务的渠道。 根据下文表转折的连词But可知,本空应与下文some elderly individuals may need the help of people who volunteer their time to boost their spirits and aid them with basic tasks构成转折关系,C选项描述的是不需要志愿者服务的老
71、年人,与下文构成转折关系,符合语境。本空位于段首,是该段的主题句,且由三、四、五段的段首主题句可知此空应选祈使句。第二段中的local authorities在A选项中出现,故选A。D选项中的These指代的是上文中的assisted living and nursing facilities,而且D项中的places与facilities相呼应,故选D。误解分析:本空易误选F项,虽然F选项也有代词These, F选项中的help with the elderly in your community and beyond“帮助在你的社区以内或以外的老人”与本段主题句Work at a loca
72、l senior living community.“在当地的老人生活社区工作”不符,故F项错误。根据上文中的you apply to volunteer in their community可知,提供志愿者服务需要提出申请才行,目的正是G选项中所描述的ensure the safety of the elderly“确保老年人的安全”。本段主题句Donate money to an elderly cause.中的关键词Donate money在E选项中出现,且E选项中的this指代设空处前一句中的help the elderly“帮助老人”这件事。第二部分 语言知识运用第一节答案：1-5.
73、CCACD; 6-10.BDADA; 11-15.DACBB解析：1.eat吃;watch看;play玩;write写。根据下文可知Bryan正在玩,结合句意可知此处选项C符合语境。2.句意:Bryan没有回答,还是盯着闪烁的电视屏幕。move移动;leave离开;keep保持;close关闭。结合句意可知此处考查短语keep ones eyes on,意为“注视,盯着”。故选C。3.句意:很快,Bryan的手开始疼痛。hand手;head头;eye眼睛;neck脖子。根据下文He was having trouble moving his fingers.以及Bryan looked dow
74、n at his hands. They felt stiff now可知他难以移动自己的手指,而且现在手都僵硬了。由此可知他的手开始疼痛。故选A。4.设空处前表示Bryan尽力展开手掌,设空处后表示好像他的手指只想要卷曲回握住控制器。or或者;so因此;but但是;until直到为止。根据上下文意可知,此处表转折,故选项C符合语境。5.turn转身;walk散步,行走;look看;settle使处于舒适的位置。此处表示“Bryan舒适地靠着沙发背坐下”,故选D。6.句意:他感觉有点渴,但是停下游戏站起来对他来说太困难了。sell卖;pause停顿;start开始;run跑。根据句意可知此处指
75、停下游戏去喝水。选项B符合语境。7.句意:随后,Bryan想到了妈妈说过的话。where哪里;which哪一个;how如何;what什么。分析句子可知此处为what引导的宾语从句,what在从句中指代妈妈说的话。故选D。8.分析句子可知此处考查短语concentrate on,意为“集中注意力于”。故选A。9.shouldnt不应该;mustnt禁止;wouldnt不会;couldnt不能。此处表示他什么也不能感觉到。故选D。10.句意:Bryan感到担忧。worried担忧的;disappointed失望的;excited激动的;angry生气的。根据下文两个问题Could he reall
76、y be turning into a video game controller?

77、D符合语境。12.ruin毁坏;open打开;relax放松;read阅读。根据上文Bryan ran to the kitchen to tell his mom what had happened.可知Bryan把自己刚才的遭遇告诉了妈妈,很明显电子游戏给他造成了巨大的伤害,因此此处选项A符合语境。13.though可是,然而;too也;instead反而,代替;still仍然。此处表示“相反我想我应该停止玩电子游戏出去休息下”,故选项C符合语境。14.句意:那天Bryan得到了一个教训。desire渴望;lesson教训;belief信念;challenge挑战。根据上下文可知那天的经历
78、对Bryan来说是个教训。故选B。15.suspect嫌疑犯;slave奴隶;master主人;loser失败者。结合上文可知Bryan打游戏时间太长以致无法控制自己,几乎就要成为游戏的奴隶。根据语境可知此处选B。第二节答案：be found; benefits ; with ; and ; dangerous; making ; a ; which ; relatively ; to support 解析：本文是一篇说明文。一些科学家认为在不久的将来地球上的空间就不够人类生存了,所以为了生存我们必须开发其他的地方,考虑搬往其他星球。 考查动词的语态。句意:因此我们应该找到一些其他的地方来居住
79、。设空处的谓语动词与主语some other places之间是被动关系,应该用被动语态。考查名词复数。根据设空处前的many more可知,此处应该用名词的复数形式。考查介词。Whats wrong with sb./sth.?某人/某事(物)怎么了?考查连词。句意:去月球的旅程需要花费四到八天,去火星的旅程需要花费六到八个月。前后两个分句在意思上是并列关系,应该用and连接。考查词性转换。设空处应该用形容词作表语,与time-consuming并列。考查现在分词。设空处是非谓语动词作状语,表示自然而然的结果,应该用现在分词形式。考查冠词。句意:然而,一个环绕地球运转的太空站只有几个小时的路
80、程,这使得旅行更便宜,通讯也相对容易。此处表示泛指,且space以辅音音素开头,故填不定冠词a。考查定语从句。句意同上题。which在此处引导非限制性定语从句,指代前面整个主句,且在从句中作主语。考查副词。设空处修饰后面的形容词easy,应用副词形式。relatively意为“相对地”。考查不定式。此处应用不定式作目的状语。第三部分 写作第一节答案：Dear teachers and students, Today is an exciting day. Id like to express my feelings on studying abroad. I think the rapid g
81、rowth in numbers of undergraduates studying abroad is due to the numerous advantages of overseas study. The top reason is getting a chance to broaden your horizons while experiencing a high standard of education and first-rate facilities. Second, studying overseas might also provide you with a bette
82、r chance of finding a preferable career. On the other hand, drawbacks such as high expenses and leaving their families affect some students when they make decisions.
