I went at once to a shop where they sold toys for children. Being charmed with the soun
11、d of a whistle that I had seen by the way, in the hands of another boy, I handed over all my money for one. I then came home, and went whistling all over the house, much pleased with my whistle, but disturbing all the family. My brothers and sisters and cousins, when I told of the bargain I had made
12、, said I had given four times as much as the whistle was worth. They put me in mind of what good things I might have bought with the rest of the money, and laughed at me so much for my folly that I cried with vexation(烦恼). Thinking about the matter gave me more disappointment than the whistle gave m
13、e pleasure.This, however, was afterwards of use to me, for the impression continued on my mind, so that often, when I was tempted to buy something I did not need, I said to myself, “Dont give too much for the whistle,” and I saved my money. As I grew up, came into the world, and observed the actions
14、 of men, I thought I met with many, very many, who “gave too much for the whistle.” When I saw some men too eager for court favor, wasting his time at court gatherings, giving up his rest, his liberty, his virtue, and perhaps his friends, for royal favor, I said to myself-“This man gives too much fo
15、r the whistle.” When I saw another fond of popularity, constantly taking part in political affairs, neglecting his own business, and ruining it by neglect, “He says, indeed,” said I, “too dear for his whistle.”If I knew a miser who gave up every kind of comfortable living, all the pleasure of doing
16、good to others, all the esteem of his fellow citizens and the joys of friendship, for the sake of gathering and keeping wealth- “Poor man,” said I, “ you pay too dear for your whistle.” When I met a man of pleasure, who did not try to improve his mind or his fortune but merely devoted himself to hav
17、ing a good time, perhaps neglecting his health, “ Mistaken man, you are providing pain for yourself, instead of pleasure; you are paying too dear for your whistle.” If I saw someone fond of appearance who has fine clothes, fine houses, fine furniture, fine earrings, all above his fortune, and for wh
18、ich he had run into debt, and ends his career in a prison. “Alas,” said I, “he has paid dear, very dear, for his whistle.” In short the miseries of mankind are largely due to their puffing a false value on things - to giving “too much for their whistle.”4. The authors brothers and sisters and cousin

21、ison.【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章作者通过自己小时候买哨子的经历，告诉我们“得不偿失”的道理，并阐述了自己的观点。【4题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第一段“My brothers and sisters and cousins, when I told of the bargain I had made, said I had given four times as much as the whistle was worth. They put me in mind of what good things I might have bough
22、t with the rest of the money, and laughed at me so much for my folly that I cried with vexation(烦恼).(我的兄弟姐妹和堂兄弟姐妹们，当我告诉他们我所做的交易时，他们说我花了哨子价值的四倍的钱。他们还提醒我，用剩下的钱可以买些什么好东西，还嘲笑我愚蠢，我气得哭了起来。)”可知，作者的兄弟姐妹和堂兄弟姐妹都嘲笑他，因为他的哨子值不了那么多钱。故选C。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段“This, however, was afterwards of use to me, for the impre
23、ssion continued on my mind, so that often, when I was tempted to buy something I did not need, I said to myself, “Dont give too much for the whistle,” and I saved my money. (然而，这个哨子后来对我很有用，因为这个印象一直在我的脑海中挥之不去，所以当我想买一些我不需要的东西时，我就对自己说：“不要为这哨子花太多的钱，”这样我就省下了钱。)”可知，这段经历对作者很有用，因为他变得很有自制力。故选D。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据
24、文章第三段“If I knew a miser who gave up every kind of comfortable living, all the pleasure of doing good to others, all the esteem of his fellow citizens and the joys of friendship, for the sake of gathering and keeping wealth- “Poor man,” said I, “ you pay too dear for your whistle.” When I met a man o
25、f pleasure, who did not try to improve his mind or his fortune but merely devoted himself to having a good time, perhaps neglecting his health, “you are paying too dear for your whistle.”(如果我知道一位吝啬鬼，放弃了各种舒适的生活，对他人行善的乐趣，所有他的同胞的尊重和友谊的欢乐，为了收集和保持财富“可怜的人,”我说,“你为你的哨子付出太贵。” 当我遇到一个寻欢作乐的人，他既不想提高自己的智力，也不想增加自己
26、的财富，而只是一味寻欢作乐，甚至糟蹋了自己的健康，“迷途的人啊，你不是在为自己寻找快乐，而是在为自己寻找痛苦；你为你的哨子付出的代价太高了。”)”可推断，作者认为健康和精神的改善应该放在快乐之上。故选B。CThe name sounds funny but the idea is no joke: its a personal toilet called the pee-pool, Anders Wilhelmson, a Swedish architect, is the inventor of the pee-pool.He became interested in the idea of
27、 sanitation(卫生设施) after taking part in a research project on the social and political development of cities. One of the most common problems he found in developing countries was the lack of toilets. He wanted to do something to help. So working with others, he started the project in 2005, and the ne
28、xt year started a company called Peepoolple.The toilet is a singleuse bag made of environmentally friendly plastics. The inside is treated with urea(尿素), a chemical commonly used as fertilizer. The hotter the weather, the more quickly the waste turns into what is needed by plants. The sanitation pro
29、cess can be as soon as a couple of hours or as long as two to four weeks. You can just bury it in a pot and grow whatever you like.The company expects to start selling the bags in August in Kenya and Bangladesh, but it is just beginning production and sales in Nairobi now. Full production could reac
30、h about half a million bags a day and people may be able to buy the pee-pool in countries Vietnam, Bangladesh, etc.The United Nations says more than two and a half billion people around the world do not have good sanitation. Many have no choice but to use the outdoors, which is not only bad for the
31、environment, but also harmful to peoples health. Each year, poor sanitation leads to three fifths of those people getting an infectious disease which on average causes one out of 1,000 patients to die.Jack Smith, the founder of the World Toilet Organization, says “This is quite an unacceptable situa
32、tion given the fact that we are living in the modern world. And strangely, many of them own televisions, phones but have no toilet.”7. What can be learned about the pee-pool from the passage?A. It can be used over againB. Its sanitation process doesnt last longC. It works better in summer than in wi
33、nterD. It should be buried in a pot after being used8. In which place can people buy the Pee-pool now?A. NairobiB. VietnamC. SwedenD. Bangladesh9. The fifth paragraph is written mainly to tell us that _.A. poor sanitation may cause many problemsB. many people dont care for the environmentC. many peo
34、ple get ill from using the outdoorsD. quite a number of people died from poor sanitation10. The underlined word “This” in the last paragraph probably refers to _.A. the outdoors being damagedB. many places being short of toiletsC. many people having TVs and phonesD. many people getting an infection
35、disease【答案】7. C 8. A 9. A 10. B【解析】【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了环保厕所“the pee-pool”，它解决了发展中国家缺乏厕所的问题，并且可以被利用来种植植物，可谓是一举两得。【7题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第三段内容“The hotter the weather, the more quickly the waste turns into what is needed by plants.(天气越热，废物转化为植物所需物质速度就越快)”可知，气温高时对于这种环保厕所“the pee-pool”是有利的，其转化为植物“养料”的速度较快。因此选项C
36、“It works better in summer than in winter(夏天比冬天好用)”符合基于原文的正确论断。故选C项。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第四段内容“but it is just beginning production and sales in Nairobi now(但现在它才刚刚开始在Nairobi生产和销售)”可知，目前可以在Nairobi买到这种环保厕所。故选A项。【9题详解】主旨大意题。通过阅读文章第五段内容“The United Nations says more than two and a half billion people around t
37、he world do not have good sanitation. Many have no choice but to use the outdoors, which is not only bad for the environment, but also harmful to peoples health. Each year, poor sanitation leads to three fifths of those people getting an infectious disease which on average causes one out of 1,000 pa
38、tients to die.(联合国表示，全球有超过25亿人没有良好的卫生设施。许多人别无选择，只能使用户外，这不仅对环境有害，而且对人们的健康有害。每年，卫生条件差导致五分之三的人感染传染病，平均每1000名病人中就有一人死亡)”可知，该段主要讲述了在没有良好的卫生设施的情况下，选择户外（排便）对于环境和人体都带来了危害。因此选项A“poor sanitation may cause many problems(恶劣的卫生条件可能导致许多问题)”贴合该段主旨要义，为作者想要通过该段表达的信息。故选A项。【10题详解】词义猜测题。结合前后文语境可知，Jack Smith的话应是对前文提到的事实
39、“The United Nations says more than two and a half billion people around the world do not have good sanitation.(联合国表示，全球有超过25亿人没有良好的卫生设施。)”进行评论，因此“This”应是指代前文提到的事实，即，很多地方没有良好的卫生设施。故选B项。DGiven all the heated debates about how Americas children should be taught, it may come as a surprise to learn that
40、students spend less than 15% of their time in school. While theres no doubt that school is important, a series of recent studies remind us that parents are even more so. A study, for example, finds that parental involvement -checking homework, attending school meetings and events, discussing school
41、activities at home -has a more powerful influence on students academic performance than anything about the school the students attend. Another study, reports that the effort put forth by parents has a bigger impact on their childrens educational achievement than the effort devoted by either teachers
42、 or the students themselves. And a third study concludes that schools would have to increase their spending by more than $1,000 per pupil in order to achieve the same results that are gained with parental involvement.So parents matter a lot -a point made clear by decades of research showing that a m
43、ajor part of the academic advantage held by children from wealthy families comes from the “concerted cultivation (协作培养) of children” as compared to the more laissez faire(散养的) style of parenting common in working- -class families. But this research also reveals something else that parents, of all ba
44、ckgrounds, dont need to buy expensive educational toys or digital devices for their kids in order to give them an edge. They dont need to drive their offspring to enrichment classes or test-prep courses. What they need to do with their children is much simpler talk,But not just any talk. Although we
45、ll-known research by psychologists Betty Hart and Todd Risley has shown that professional parents talk more to their children than less- affluent (不富有的)parents-a lot more, resulting in a 30 million “word gap” by the time children reach age three-more recent researches are raising our sense of exactl
46、y what kinds of talks at home contributed to childrens success at school. For example, a study conducted by researchers at the UCLA School of Public Health and published in the journal Pediatrics found that two way adult-child conversations were six times as effective in promoting language developme
47、nt as intervals (间歇)in which the adult did all the talking. Engaging in this mutual back-and-forth gives children a chance to try out language for themselves, and also gives them the sense that their thoughts and opinions matter. As they grow older, this feeling helps middle-and upper-class kids dev
48、elop into confident supporters for their own interests, while working-class students tend to avoid asking for help or arguing their own case with teachers, according to a research presented at American Sociological Association conference earlier this year.The content of parents conversations with ki
49、ds matters, too. Children who hear talk about counting and numbers at home start school with much more extensive mathematical knowledge, which predicts future achievement in the subject. Psychologist Susan Levine, who led the study on number words, has also found that the amount of talk young childr

53、, or even taking children to libraries and museums. When it comes to promoting students success, it seems, its not so much what parents do as what they say.11. The first paragraph mainly tells us that_.A. Teaching methods are vital to students in the USAB. schooling is necessary for American student
54、sC. parents affect their childrens achievement greatlyD. schools have paid more money to get the same results as parental involvement12. From the second paragraph we can know that in the USA_.A. children from rich families may have more academic advantagesB. working-class parents tend to talk to the

Its necessary for children to follow the example of their children.B Children should be active in their educational accomplishment.C. Parents should often communicate with the teachers of the
57、ir children.D. Parents influence stays with children for a long time.【答案】11. C 12. A 13. B 14. D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了父母教育的重要性。并用很多研究结论来证明父母教育比学校教育更重要。【11题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“While theres no doubt that school is important, a series of recent studies remind us that parents are even more so.(毫无疑问，学校很重要，但
58、最近的一系列研究提醒我们，父母更重要。)”及本段内容可知，第一段主要介绍了父母对孩子的成就影响很大。故选C。【12题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段“So parents matter a lot -a point made clear by decades of research showing that a major part of the academic advantage held by children from wealthy families comes from the “concerted cultivation (协作培养) of children” as compar
59、ed to the more laissez faire(散养的) style of parenting common in working- -class families. (因此，父母很重要几十年的研究表明，富裕家庭的孩子在学业上的优势主要来自于“对孩子的协同培养”，而不是工人阶级家庭中普遍存在的更加放任的教育方式。)”可知，来自富裕家庭的孩子可能有更多的学业优势。故选A。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第三段“For example, a study conducted by researchers at the UCLA School of Public Health and pu
60、blished in the journal Pediatrics found that two way adult-child conversations were six times as effective in promoting language development as intervals in which the adult did all the talking. (例如，加州大学洛杉矶分校公共卫生学院的研究人员在儿科学杂志上发表的一项研究发现，成人与儿童之间的双向对话在促进语言发展方面的效果是成人说话的间隔时间的6倍。)”可知，父母和孩子之间最有效的交流方式是双向对话。故
61、选B。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“While the conversations parents have with their children change as kids grow older, the effect of these exchanges on academic achievement remains strong. And again, the way mothers and fathers talk to their middle-school students makes a difference. Research by Nancy Hill, a
62、 professor at Harvard Universitys Graduate School of Education, finds that parents play an important role in what Hill calls academic socialization”-setting expectations and making connections between current behavior and future goals (going to college, getting a good job). (虽然随着孩子长大，父母与孩子之间的对话也会改变，
63、但这些交流对学业成就的影响仍然很大。再说一次，父母与中学生交谈的方式也会产生影响。哈佛大学教育研究生院教授南希希尔的研究发现，父母在希尔所谓的“学术社会化”中扮演着重要角色设定期望，将当前行为与未来目标(上大学、找一份好工作)联系起来。)”可推断，父母对孩子的影响会持续很长一段时间。故选D。第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Some people put their bicycles away once they learn how to drive a car.

71、d out and are not likely to run into each other.可知因为自行车分散开来，不太可能撞到一起。由此可知，后文提到这种比赛不太容易撞到一起，说明相对来说是一种比较安全的比赛。故B选项“计时赛对初学者来说是很安全的比赛”符合语境，故选B。【17题详解】根据上文A few city blocks are closed to traffic. Then all the racers line up in a tight pack and begin racing at the same time.(有几个街区禁止交通。然后所有的选手排成一列，挤成一团，同时开
72、始比赛)以及后文The racer who completes all the laps first is the winner.(第一个完成所有圈的选手就是冠军)由此可知，本句应当承接上文在说明比赛的过程，结合后文提到所有圈，可知选手要在城市绕很多圈。F项中的laps和city blocks与上文中的A few city blocks及下文中all the laps相对应。故F选项“他们跑了很多圈，绕着城市街区转了一圈又一圈”符合语境，故选F。【18题详解】根据后文Racers have to cover anywhere from 35 miles to almost 3,000 mile
73、s. The race course may be a straight stretch of road or a long series of roads across the country.
