The show concentrates on the adventures of eight housemates wh
12、o lived in the Jersey Shore. Their adventures took them in different places outside New Jersey, such as Miami Beach and Italy. Maybe the popularity of this show is partly due to the arguments surrounding it. This reality show series has been shown to a lot of countries worldwide.SurvivorThis reality
13、 show follows a competition format where a group of contestants were placed in a faraway location, usually an island. They were given challenges, in addition to looking after themselves.

18、 when he learned that the school district was going to offer a Chinese class, he quickly changed his mind.“I think Chinese would be more beneficial than Latin,” said Cheatham, who is now in his second year of studying the language.He speaks Chinese to order food at Chinese restaurants and reads soci
19、al media posts from his Chinesespeaking friends. While its a difficult language to master, the high school student, who plans to study computer engineering, thinks it will be important for his career. “Chinese is a good language to know, especially with China becoming a growing power,” he said.Many
20、experts agree that proficiency (熟练) in a language spoken by about 1.4 billion people worldwide will give American students an edge in the global economy.“Peoples interest in Chinese is growing fast,” said Marty Abbott, director of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages. “Were seei

She said the US government had designated (指定) Chinese as an “important needs” language and provided professional development programs for tea
22、chers. “Our government wants to increase our language ability for national security and economic competitiveness,” Abbott added.At the same time, the Chinese government is spreading knowledge of the Chinese language and culture through Confucius Institutes set up in many US states. For example, the
23、Confucius Institute at the University of Texas in Dallas has been the home of a Confucius Institute for more than 10 years.

27、effect of Confucius Institutes on promoting Chinese in the US.CIdioms are one of the hardest parts of learning a language. If you translate an idiom word for word, it sometimes makes no sense at all. They are like puzzles and even native speakers can get confused when someone uses a phrase that they
28、ve never heard of. Here are four common English idioms that you can use in a variety of situations.Get your act together. This might be something your teacher says to you if you score badly in an exam or if you misbehave in class. You can also use it to talk about people in general. For example, if
29、your friend is being mean or nasty (讨厌的) for no reason, then you can tell them that they need to get their act together.Pull yourself together. This is a somewhat impolite way of telling someone that they are overreacting and that they need to relax. Only use this if you think the person you are spe
30、aking to is getting upset over something insignificant. If your friend tells you that their close relative has been dead, it is not the time to tell them to pull themselves together.Im feeling under the weather. Yes, its longer and more difficult to say than “Im sick”, but if your English teacher as
31、ks you why you havent done your homework, he or she is more likely to forgive you if you say that you were feeling under the weather. You may not have done your English homework, but it might impress your teacher that you know how to make eloquent (雄辩的) excuses in a foreign language.Break a leg. Thi
32、s is perhaps one of the most confusing yet wellknown English idioms. If someone says this to you, do not take offence or think they are threatening you; they are just wishing you luck. It is most often used for people wishing actors and actresses success before they perform on the stage, but it can
33、be said in other situations, too.All in all, learning a new language can be challenging. However, with enough hard work and interest, you will succeed in no time. Break_a_leg!28Why are idioms usually hard to understand?ABecause they have too many meanings. BBecause they always mean something else.CB
34、ecause they are not used too much. DBecause they sometimes make no sense.29What does a man mean if he says, “Get your act together.”?AYou need to improve your behaviour. BYou need to talk to your teacher honestly.CYou ought to relax and calm down. DYou ought not to be mean or nasty at all.30What wil
35、l you say if you want to express “Calm down!”?AGet your act together. BPull yourself together.CIm feeling under the weather. DBreak a leg.31What does the underlined sentence “Break a leg!” refer to?AWork hard! BKeep it up!CGood luck! DA piece of cake!DHalloween used to be a time for kids. In the pas
36、t, the festival meant houses decorated with jackolanterns, cool costumes (化装服) handmade by mums, and going door to door asking for candy, saying “trick or treat”However, you wouldnt have seen any of these if you were at this years Halloween events in Shibuya, Tokyo, from Oct. 27 to 30. Halloween in
37、Japan has become a big party for adults, who dress up in costumes and hang around having fun taking pictures. In other words, this festival is no longer just a time for kids.As USA Today editor Bruce Horovitz wrote, “Adults have slowly been stealing Halloween from kids.” But “steal” is not quite the
38、 word, since the adults of today all used to be kids themselves. These grownups still manage to keep the tradition of dressing up alive, however, even if theyre too old to knock on strangers doors for candy now.Some companies even encourage their employees to wear costumes to work so they can relax
39、and enjoy their share of the festival fun. “You can wear whatever you want and not be judged,” Denise Delahorne of DDB Worldwide, an advertising company, told Forbes when asked why adults are so into Halloween compared to other holidays. “Theres no pressure (压力) to it. You dont have to travel or dea
40、l with relatives. Theres no holiday pressure to find a date if you are single.”But here comes the interesting part: As the “adult Halloween” industry gets bigger and bigger, movie theatres, drink sellers and haunted houses are starting to aim (瞄准) at adult customers only. Theres even an Halloween tr
41、ade show in the US every year that you cant even enter if youre under 16.That isnt good news for kids, but on the bright side, at least young people can still get free candy. And what could be better than that?32Why are adults so fond of Halloween?AThey would be treated like kids.BThey dont need to
42、care for their relatives.CThey feel happy and relaxed during Halloween.D. They can get free goods from the “adult Halloween” industry.33What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?AWork. BHalloween.CBeing single. DAnother holiday.34What did some companies encourage their workers to do
43、 during Halloween?AWear cool costumes to work. BJoin the Halloween trade show.CKnock on strangers doors for candy.

84、10BBCBA1115ABBBC1620BCCCA第二部分第一节A【语篇解读】本文是一篇应用文,介绍了美国四个非常有名的真人秀节目,它们分别是小小达人秀泽西海岸幸存者和美国之声。21答案与解析:A细节理解题。根据第二段对真人秀节目小小达人秀的介绍可知,小小达人秀节目专门邀请全美国有才艺的小朋友来表演,在表演完之后他们会接受主持人的采访。22答案与解析:C细节理解题。根据第三段对真人秀节目泽西海岸的介绍“Maybe the popularity of this show is partly due to the arguments surrounding it.”可知,围绕这个真人秀节目有很多争
85、议,说明人们对它有不同的看法。23答案与解析:D细节理解题。根据最后两段对真人秀节目幸存者和美国之声的介绍可知,这两个节目的共同之处在于最后都要决出一名优胜者。B【语篇解读】本文为一篇说明文,介绍了许多美国学生开始学习中文,与此同时,美国政府对中文的重视也促使更多的学生学习中文。24答案与解析:B考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“While its a difficult language to master, the high school student, who plans to study computer engineering, thinks it will be important
86、for his career”可知,Thomas Cheatham选择学习中文的原因是他认为中文能够对他以后的职业发展有所帮助。故选B。25答案与解析:A考查词义猜测。根据画线词所在句的意思可知,中文是一门全世界约14亿人说的语言,许多专家认为熟练掌握中文的美国学生会在全球经济中有优势,故选项A符合题意。edge意为“(微弱的)优势”。26答案与解析:C考查推理判断。根据第六段中的“She said the US government had designated (指定) Chinese as an important needs language and provided professi
87、onal development programs for teachers”可推知,美国政府的政策会促进中文在美国的普及,故选C。27答案与解析:A考查主旨大意。纵观全文,文章主要介绍了美国学生学习中文的热情升温的现象,并分析了出现该现象的原因,故选A。C【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了四个英语习语以及它们在何种情况下使用。28答案与解析:B细节理解题。根据题干中的“idioms usually hard to understand”定位到第一段第一、二句。由此可判断出,如果逐词翻译一个习语,它有时毫无意义可言。也就是说,它们通常不是字面意思,而是有言外之意。故正确答案为B。A项“因为它们有太多的
88、意思”,C项“因为它们被用得不多”从文中找不到依据;D项根据第一段中的“it sometimes makes no sense at all”判断好像是对的,但它的前提是“If you translate an idiom word for word”,故做题万不可断章取义。29答案与解析:A推理判断题。根据题干中的“Get your act together”定位到第二段,解题关键信息为“if you score badly in an exam or if you misbehave in class”和“if your friend is being mean or nasty for
89、no reason”。由此可判断出,说这句话的前提是如果你考试考得很差或课堂表现不好,或如果你的朋友毫无理由地卑鄙或讨厌,故A项“你需要改善你的行为”为正确答案。30答案与解析:B细节理解题。根据第三段中的“they are overreacting. need to relax”和“the person.is getting upset over something insignificant”可知,习语Pull yourself together.的意思是“冷静下来,放松点”。故正确答案为B。31答案与解析:C词义猜测题。通读文章可知,本题的解题信息在倒数第二段中的“they are ju
