10、the world that each of these great philosophers came from shaped their ideas, and how these ideas in turn, shaped their societies.Neither philosopher lived in times of peace, though there were more wars in Greece than in China. The Chinese states were very large and feudal, while the Greek citystate
11、s were small and urban. The urban environment in which Socrates lived allowed him to be more radical(激进的) than Confucius. Unlike Confucius, Socrates was not asked by rulers how to govern effectively. Thus, Socrates was able to be more idealistic, focusing on issues like freedom, and knowledge for it
12、s own sake. Confucius, on the other hand, advised those in government service, and many of his students went out to government service.Confucius suggested the Golden Rule as a principle for the conduct of life:“Do not do to others what you would not want others to do to you.” He assumed that all men
13、 were equal at birth, though some had more potential than others, and that it was knowledge that set men apart. Socrates focused on the individual, and thought that the greatest purpose of man was to seek wisdom. Like Confucius, he believed that the superior class should rule the inferior(下层的) class
14、es.For Socrates, the family was of no importance, and the community of little concern. For Confucius, however, the family was the centre of the society, with family relations considered much more important than political relations.Both men are respected much more today than they were in their lifeti
15、mes.()4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?ASocrates and Confucius had much in common.BConfucius had much influence on Socrates ideas.CThe societies were influenced by the philosophers ideas.DThere were cultural exchanges between China and Greece.()5.Socrates shared with
16、 Confucius the idea that .Aall men were equal when they were bornBthe lower classes should be ruled by the upper classCthe purpose of man was to seek freedom and wisdomDPeople should not ask others to do what they did not want to()6.What made some people different from others according to Confucius?
17、AFamily.BPotential.CKnowledge.DCommunity.()7.How does the passage organize?AIn the patter of time and events.BIn the patter of comparison and contrast.CIn the patter of cause and effect.DIn the patter of definition and classification.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,文章主要讲述了孔子和苏格拉底两位哲学家的思想、对社会的影响及观点的异同。4C细节理解题。根据文章第一段
18、最后一句“and how these ideas in turn,shaped their societies.”可知C项正确;A项在第一段没有提及;B项和D项与第一段中“during their lifetimes there was no contact between China and Greece”的表述不符。5B细节理解题。根据第三段中“Like Confucius, he believed that the superior class should rule the inferior (下层的)classes.”可知,两位哲学家都认为上层阶级应该统治下层阶级。6C细节理解题。根
19、据文章第三段中的“and that it was knowledge that set men apart.”可知,使人与人之间有差别的原因就是知识。故选C项。7B篇章结构题。本文主要是以比较和对照来阐述两位伟大哲学家孔子与苏格拉底的哲学思想对社会的影响以及思想观点的相似与不同的。故选B项。CThe idea of turning recycled plastic bottles into clothing is not new. During the last five years, a large number of clothing companies, businesses and e
20、nvironmental organizations have started turning plastics into fabric to deal with plastic pollution. But theres a problem with this method. Research now shows that microfibers could be the biggest source of plastic in the sea.Dr. Mark Browne in Santa Barbara, California, has been studying plastic po
21、llution and microfibers for 10 years now. He explains that every time synthetic(合成的)clothes go into a washing machine, a large number of plastic fibers fall off. Most washing machines cant collect these microfibers. So every time the water gets out of a washing machine, microfibers are entering the
22、sewers and finally end up in the sea.In 2011, Browne wrote a paper stating that a single piece of synthetic clothing can produce more than 1, 900 fibers per wash. Browne collected samples from seawater and freshwater sites around the world, and used a special way to examine each sample.He discovered
23、 that every single water sample contained microfibers.This is bad news for a number of reasons. Plastic can cause harm to sea life when eaten. Studies have also shown that plastic can absorb other pollutants.Based on this evidence, it may seem surprising that companies and organizations have chosen
24、to turn plastic waste into clothing as an environmental “solution.” Even though the science has been around for a while, Browne explains that hes had a difficult time getting companies to listen. When he asked wellknown clothing companies to support Benign by Design his research project that seeks t
25、o get clothes that have a bad effect on humans and the environment out of the market, Browne didnt get a satisfying answer. Only one womens clothing company, Eileen Fisher, offered Browne funding.()8.What has happened during the past five years?AFabric has become much stronger.BPlastic pollution has
26、 been less serious.CMany plastic bottles have been reused.DMicrofibers have been greatly improved.()9.What does Browne think of washing synthetic clothes?AIt is adding microfibers to the clothes.BIt is worsening environmental problems.CIt is making synthetic clothes last longer.DIt is doing great da

28、Never Easy to Solve Pollution ProblemsCRecycled Plastic Clothing:Solution or Pollution?DAre Human Beings Moving Forward or Backward?【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。在过去的五年里,大量的服装公司、企业和环保组织已经开始将塑料变成织物来处理塑料污染。研究表明,微纤维可能是海洋中塑料的最大来源。8C推理判断题。由第一段内容可知,许多服装公司、企业和环保组织开始将塑料转变成织物来处理塑料污染。由此可推断出,在过去的五年里许多塑料瓶已被重新利用。9B推理判断题。由第二段内容
29、可知,每次合成纤维衣服进入洗衣机,都会有大量塑料纤维脱落。大多数洗衣机无法收集这些微纤维。因此,每当水从洗衣机中流出时,微纤维就会进入下水道,最终流入大海。所以通过Browne的解释可以判断出,布朗认为洗合成纤维衣服正在使环境恶化。故选B项。10D推理判断题。由最后一段“When he asked wellknown clothing companies to support Benign by DesignBrowne didnt get a satisfying answer.”可知,当他要求知名服装公司来支持他的研究项目时,Browne并没有得到令人满意的答复,由此判断出Browne要使
30、服装公司支持他的研究项目是很困难的,故布朗的Benign by Design正面临一些困难。故选D项。11C标题归纳题。通读全文可知,文章围绕“回收塑料服装:是解决方案还是污染”而展开论述。故选C项。DStudies have shown most people fail to realize how much time they spend on their smart phones each day.Frank and Amelias family were put to a test,using a free app called “Momentscreen Time Tracker”T
31、he VascellarosFrank,Amelia,14yearold twins Frankie and Joe,and 17yearold Samall said they did not really know they were spending so much time on their phones each day.“Honestly,I dont feel like Im on my phone a lot,” Amelia Vascellaro said.Amelia was on her phone far less often than Frank,according
32、to the app.While Amelia spent about an hour per day on the phone,Frank spent close to four hours on his phone which came as a shock to him.The childrens times varied but they often spent more than a couple of hours on the phone as well.Minneapolisbased Dr Kirsten Lind Seal sees phone usage come up a

35、l skills.“What we find is that we are really losing out on empathythe ability to understand other peoples feelings and problemswhen we spend a lot of time on our smart phones to communicate with other people,” she said.()12.How did the families tested by the app feel about the test results?ASatisfie

38、y.BA guidebook.CA novel.DA magazine.【语篇解读】本文是议论文。通过使用一款应用软件跟踪发现,很多人没有意识到自己每天花费很多时间使用手机,建议人们放下手机,应该更多地进行面对面的交流。12D推理判断题。由第二段和第三段可知,Vascellaros一家对这个测试结果感到惊讶,他们没有想到自己每天花费那么多的时间使用手机。13B推理判断题。由第四段中的末句“Lind Seal said many family members phone use has become problematic.”可知,Lind Seal提出这三个问题是为了说明“当我们被问到这三个问
39、题时,说明我们使用手机过多。”14A细节理解题。根据最后一段首句“She asks parents to encourage more facetoface communication for teens and young adults as they continue developing their social and emotional skills.”和引述的话可知,我们应该多进行面对面的交流。15D题材来源题。通读全文,本文从一项研究入手,讲述人们对手机的依赖,最后建议人们应该更多地进行面对面的交流,故此篇文章最有可能来自杂志。第二节(共5小题;每题2.5分,满分12.5分)Tr

46、.【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。旅行是一种很有趣也很有意义的人生经历。本文给没有足够的钱去旅行的学生如何准备旅行提出了一些具体的建议。16C从文章“总分总”的写作结构可以看出,这句话引出下文的建议。浏览选项,选项C中“Here are some” 是比较经典的引出下文的句型。且其中的“some useful suggestions”与下文各项建议呼应。故选C项。17G小标题是“Save”,选项G中的“Cut expenses to fatten your wallet”与其呼应。由于小标题与所在段落内容应保持一致。故选G项。18F小标题是“Plan ahead”,选项F中的“Giving you
47、rself several months to get ready(给你自己几个月的时间去准备)”与其呼应。由于小标题与所在段落内容应保持一致。故选F项。19D根据小标题“Travel in groups”可确定,选项D“Find someone who is interested in visiting the same places(找到也想去你所想去的地方旅行的人)”与其呼应,语境内容一致。故选D项。20B首先根据其他几个小标题可以推断,此处小标题应该是一个简短的祈使句,所以把答案可锁定在A、B项上。再根据选项B中的necessary与空格后的“The most important th

55、iver.”可知,丈夫的工作就是驾驶卡车,又根据后面的“off the truck”可知,这里描述的是“不工作的时候”,即在家(home)。23C根据下文“Since then he has had 4 heart attacks”可知,本句描述的是第一次(first)发病的时候。24B根据下文“he would not cut off walk again without a walking stick.”可知,这是医生对丈夫的嘱咐。25B根据下文“he did learn how to talk again and walk without a stick and cut off the
56、supply of oxygen.”可知。故选B项。26A根据下文“overcome any obstacle(障碍) that came his way”可知,丈夫非常的坚定(determined)。27D根据下文“knowing she could not make a trip to any 28 that wasnt close”可知,丈夫的妈妈不能去远的地方,所以丈夫尽力地把车开到离他母亲家更近的(closer)地方。28B根据上文“as he was having his 4th attack”可知,丈夫知道母亲无法带他到较远的医院(hospital)去给他看病。29A根据上文的“
57、 so he could make it home 27 ”可知,丈夫在患有中风的情况下,驱车3000英里成功(make it)到家。30Drecognize“识别,认可”;declare“宣布”;explain“解释”;learn“得知,学习”。句意:他从47岁起就患有糖尿病,深知虽然不能像以前那样在卡车上工作,但他开始教别人如何开卡车。31D根据前面的“he started to teach others.”可以推断,丈夫自己开不了卡车了,是教别人如何(how)驾驶。32C下文“ he kept having epileptic(癫痫) seizures”与上文“he would neve
58、r walk or talk again, or use his right side”构成因果关系。33C根据上文“he kept having seizures epileptic(癫痫)”可知,这次患病对身体的危害(damage)更大。34D根据下文“he did learn how to talk again and walk without a stick and cut off the supply of oxygen”可知,丈夫的情况与医生的判断截然相反,故证明医生是错误的(wrong)。35B句意:即使他残疾了,不能再开车或工作,他仍然非常坚定。正是因为他所经历的这些苦难挫折,
59、(所以)他是我(心中)的英雄。结合全文内容可知,丈夫非常坚强,即使多次生病,但始终与病魔抗争,很自然丈夫是“我”心中的英雄。第二节(共10小题;每题1.5分,满分15分)Just now, I entered the website “Topic for Today”. I feel 36.

63、g to begin studying another language.【语篇解读】本文属于记叙文,讲述作者在进入网站Topic for Today看到的关于中学生使用手机的利弊的报告。36interested考查形容词。“feel/be interested in”意为“对感兴趣”,为固定搭配。interested是形容词,通常修饰人或者与人有关的事物。37with考查介词。with表示伴随状态,指“他们带着手机来上学”。38it考查代词。分析句子结构可知,本句中it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的不定式 “to get in touch with others with the cellp
64、hone”。39which考查关系代词。分析句子结构可知, “also makes them feel safe especially in time of trouble”为非限制性定语从句,从句缺少主语,故用which指代主句内容。40various考查形容词。修饰名词functions用形容词various。41a考查冠词。本句后面的must是可数名词,指“必备的事物”,这里表示“手机是一个必备品”,故用不定冠词a。42making考查现在分词。making在句中作结果状语,指意料之中的结果,与其逻辑主语构成主动关系。43messages考查名词复数。message为可数名词,这里表示发
65、送“不同信息”,故用复数形式。44be wasted考查语态。句意:另外,会浪费大量的时间和金钱。分析句子可知,本句缺少谓语,waste与主语为动宾关系,故用被动语态,故be wasted。45freely考查副词。修饰动词use用副词freely。第三部分写作(40分)第一节(满分15分)假定你是李华,你在BBC英语论坛上看到一个叫Tom的英国学生发的帖子。Tom计划来中国旅游,想了解中国的历史文化并参观旅游景点,为此发帖寻求建议。请根据下列要点,用英文给Tom写一封回信。内容包括:1介绍自己;2你的建议;注意:1.词数80左右,开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数;2可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯

69、Rowe. I was lucky enough to teach fourth grade together with him.Mr.Rowe had endless patience and understanding and I learned so much from watching him. He could perform miracles, like the one he performed with Steven, one of the unhappiest kids I had ever seen. Steven couldnt stand school. He didnt
70、 like being picked last for kickball. He didnt like the kids who raised their hands and knew the answers, and most importantly, he didnt like himself.The first day he walked into Mr.Rowes classroom, he ignored the other students, looking angry and annoyed, and slid into his chair, knocking a couple
71、of textbooks onto the floor.Mr.Rowe walked over to him and touched Stevens shoulder, but Steven pulled away. Nevertheless, Mr.Rowe welcomed him:“Hi, Steven. Im happy you are in my class. We are gonna have a great year.” Steven looked around the room as if Mr. Rowe were mistaken. No teacher in his ri
72、ght mind would want Steven to be part of his class.So, while Mr.Rowe seemed cheerful and relaxed that day of school, it seemed that Steven was angry and confused.That day after classes, Mr.Rowe chose Steven to pitch(投球) the kickball at recess. “Hey, Steven,” Mr.Rowe commented, “You are good at pitch
73、ing. Let me show you my secret trick.” Mr.Rowe taught Steven one of the tricks that not a single kid could perform. Steven learned fast and did quite well! Everyone cheered for him!After the kickball, Steven sat as close to Mr.Rowe in classes as he could. When a question was asked, Steven lit up; wh
74、en he knew the answer, he raised his hand; when he answered the question, his voice shook. However, he got the answer right! He said, with Mr.Rowe, his days of the fourth grade promised wonderful.That is not to say that every day went smoothly, but it was obvious that Steven grew to love Mr.Rowe mor
75、e and more with each passing day.注意:1续写词数应为150左右;2请按如下格式在相应的位置作答。Time passed quickly that year, and before we all knew it, it was the last day of school. One possible version: Time passed quickly that year, and before we all knew it, it was the last day of school. Our school had a very special tradi
76、tion on the last day. All the teachers filled the sidewalk, waving goodbye to the kids as the bus pilled out with their horns honking. But on that particular day, Steven walked slowly to the bus, his head down, tears in his eyes. He boarded the bus reluctantly, hesitated, and then ran back off the b
77、us to hug Mr. Rowe. “I dont want to leave you.” He sobbed. Touched and tearful, Mr. Rowe comforted him, “I will miss you, too.”Many years later, Mr.Rowe and I were surprised when a handsome young man walked into our classroom, dressed in army uniform. One possible version:Many years later, Mr. Rowe
78、and I were surprised when a handsome young man walked into our classroom, dressed in army uniform. The young man stood tall and proud. It was Steven! Mr. Rowe and I couldnt believe our eyes. He hugged Mr. Rowe tightly! “I have come back to school today just to say thanks to you!” It is my hope that every teacher is blessed with such a wonderful experience of a former student coming back to say, simply to say a very simple “Thank you”
