10、bolster is more than three times as expensive as in China, it doesnt kill their desires to buy it. One Japanese customer Miki said, “They are just so cute and I bought three bolsters at one time for my family. And every time I see them, my mood just brightens suddenly.”A Japanese netizen Kiro Kara s

My dad will send it when he doesnt agree with someone but he has to say something and behave politely.” Addition to Domestic Social MediaCompared with Japanese impressions of the “funny” emoji, Chinese netizens prefer to use emoji to tease o

Because every time other people send me the emoji, I feel very uncomfortable and consider myself as a fool.”Regarded as the most popular emoji, the “funny” emoji has received much at
13、tention since its release in 2013. In fact, the “funny” emoji is the updated version of its original one; “funny” has a smiley mouth, two eyebrows and a naughty look. All these characteristics present users a sense of satire (讽刺). In Everyday Use AbroadIts not the first time the Chinese emoji takes

There, the lights blink (闪烁) regularly to imitate (模仿) “breathing”. When
24、people walk near it, the work responds by forming light patterns, as if communicating with the visitors.Speaking about the work, Zhou said: “Its like some kind of communication between humans and plastics.”Plastic has a life longer than almost any creature, taking centuries to decompose. Though peop
25、le blame plastics for damage to the environment, they are a big part of our daily lives.“So we want to ask the question: Although the damage continues, whether there is a way for humans to reconcile (调和) with plastics,” said Zhou.Liu said that plastic waste can be used to make clothes and ornaments
26、(装饰品). “Re-use of plastics will be a future trend,” he said.Cable ties are a useful and common material for fastening. Many people will buy a large bundle of them but only use a few pieces.

30、举行的一次艺术展览,展览的所有原材料都来自艺术家们在社区收集的垃圾和塑料废物;这次展览呼吁所有的人重新思考他们浪费的生活方式并做出改变。【4题详解】推理判断题。由第三段“We hope that everyone who visited the show can think about how useless things are produced, why they are tossed out (扔走), and whether useless things are really useless,” said Cao Yujia, the design director of Blackb
31、ow.”(Blackbow的设计总监曹玉佳说:“我们希望每一个参观过这个节目的人都能思考无用的东西是怎么产生的,为什么会被扔掉,以及无用的东西是否真的无用。”。)和最后一段“This exhibition calls for everyone to re-think their wasteful lifestyle full of single-use plastics and make changes,” said Cao.”(曹玉佳说:“这次展览呼吁大家重新思考一下自己的一次性塑料浪费的生活方式,并做出改变。”。),可知Dear Pretty Rubbish的目的是让人们思考无用的东西是怎
32、么产生的以及无用的东西是否真的无用,思考自己的一次性塑料浪费的生活方式,做出改变以减少垃圾和浪费。故选A项。【5题详解】词义猜测题。由第七段中的“Plastic has a life longer than almost any creature, taking centuries to decompose.”(塑料的寿命比任何生物都长,需要几个世纪才能decompose。),可知塑料的寿命很长,会存在很久,所以需要几个世纪(很长时间)才能分解,decompose在此处意为“break down(分解)”。故选B项。【6题详解】推理判断题。由第五段中的“Artists Zhou Yuxuan
33、and Liu Yifan collected nylon cable ties (尼龙扎带), LED lights and beverage bottles from designers workshops to create a work where plastics, in the shape of cells, “grow” in a corner.”(艺术家周宇轩和刘亦凡从设计师的工作室收集了尼龙扎带、LED灯和饮料瓶,创造了一个细胞形状的塑料在角落里“生长”的作品。),倒数第四段“So we want to ask the question: Although the damag
34、e continues, whether there is a way for humans to reconcile (调和) with plastics,” said Zhou.”(“所以我们想问一个问题:尽管破坏还在继续,人类是否有办法与塑料和解,” 周宇轩说。)和倒数第三段“Liu said that plastic waste can be used to make clothes and ornaments (装饰品). “Re-use of plastics will be a future trend,” he said.”(刘亦凡说,塑料废料可以用来做衣服和装饰品。“重复使用
35、塑料将是未来的趋势,”他说。),可知艺术家周宇轩和刘亦凡的作品是由塑料制成的,这体现了人类与塑料的和解,而未来重复使用塑料将是趋势,通过这种重复使用塑料的方式,也能减少污染。故选D项。【7题详解】主旨大意题。由第一段“Garbage often has negative associations with germs (细菌),dirt and useless junk. However, a recent art exhibition proved that “useless” things can have practical significance.”(垃圾通常与细菌、污垢和无用的垃圾
36、有负面联系。然而,最近的一个艺术展览证明了“无用”的东西可以有实际意义。)和第二段“Dear Pretty Rubbish, an art event organized by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWFN) and digital media art company Blackbow, was held in Beijing. It looked at wasteful consumption (消耗) and asked questions about the relationship between our lifestyles and our
37、 garbage.”(由世界自然基金会和数码媒体艺术公司Blackbow联合举办的“亲爱的漂亮垃圾”艺术活动在北京举行。它研究了浪费性消费,并就我们的生活方式和垃圾之间的关系提出了问题。)以及后文对此展览的介绍,可知本文主要讲最近在北京举行的一次艺术展览,展览的都是由垃圾制作的作品,从而呼吁大家减少浪费,循环利用废品,A项“在北京举行的艺术展览”符合文意。故选A项。CHeart disease is one of the major killers in the world today. Many who suffer from it must have heart transplants (
38、移植). However, its difficult to get a suitable heart donation, and even if a patient survives the wait, his or her body often rejects (排斥) the heart.But there is now new hope for sufferers of heart disease. According to a study published in the journal Advanced Science, researchers from Israels Tel A
39、viv University printed a 3D human heart on April 15.“This is the first time anyone anywhere has successfully engineered and printed an entire heart,” professor Tal Dvir told CNN.Unlike the previous 3D-printed heart structure, the new heart is complete with cells, blood vessels (血管), chambers (心室) an
40、d other structures a heart needs to function normally. But scientists still have more to figure out before the 3D-printed heart can be fitted into the body. For one thing, the experimental heart is only the size of a thumb (拇指). And, although it can contract (收缩) like a muscle, it cannot pump out bl
41、ood like a real one. At present, the heart prototype (样品) is like a tiny airplane that has all of the right parts, but cant fly.However, the development is still regarded as a major breakthrough in medicine.In the experiment, the researchers turned human fat tissue (脂肪组织) into human heart tissue wit
42、h stem cell (干细胞) technology. The tissue was then turned into “bio-ink” for a 3D printer to ensure that tissue in the heart came from the patients themselves. So ideally, if it were to be placed in the body of someone in need of a transplant, there would be less risk of organ rejection.“Patients wil
43、l no longer have to wait for transplants or take medications to prevent their rejection,” researchers told USA Today. “Instead, the needed heart will be printed, fully personalized (个性化的) for every patient.”But the scientists think that 3D printing can be used to create other human organs. They fore
44、see a time when the 3D printing of organs will be an everyday medical practice.“Maybe, in 10 years, there will be organ printers in the finest hospitals around the world and these procedures will be conducted routinely,” Dvir said.8. Why is the 3D-printed heart important?A. It will be used on a pati
45、ent.B. It is the first 3D-printed heart.C. It will replace a heart donation.D. It has a complete heart structure.9. What problem do 3D-printed hearts have?A. They cost too much.B. They are too small.C They cant contract.D. They are hard to produce.10. Why would there be less risk of organ rejection
46、with the 3D-printed heart?A. It would be made with stem cell technology.B. It would be made from human fat tissue.C. It would come from a patients body.D. It would be printed according to the patients condition.11. What attitude does Tal Dvir hold toward the future of 3D printing of organs?A. Confid
47、ent.B. Doubtful.C. Worried.D. Confused.【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A【解析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了3D打印心脏的发展、优点以及仍然存在的问题。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Unlike the previous 3D-printed heart structure, the new heart is complete with cells, blood vessels (血管), chambers (心室) and other structures a heart needs to function normally.”可
48、知,与之前的3D打印心脏结构不同,新心脏由细胞、血管、腔室和心脏正常工作所需的其他结构组成,由此可知,新的3D打印心脏有一个完整的心脏结构,故D项正确。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段中的“But scientists still have more to figure out before the 3D-printed heart can be fitted into the body. For one thing, the experimental heart is only the size of a thumb (拇指).”可知,但是,在3D打印的心脏能够植入人体之前,科学家们还有更
49、多的工作要做。首先,实验心脏只有拇指那么大,由此可知,3D打印心脏的一个问题是它们太小了,故B项正确。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据第六段中的“The tissue was then turned into “bio-ink” for a 3D printer to ensure that tissue in the heart came from the patients themselves. So ideally, if it were to be placed in the body of someone in need of a transplant, there would be
50、less risk of organ rejection.”可知,3D打印心脏的组织来自患者自身,所以,理想情况下,如果把它放在需要移植的人的体内,器官排斥的风险就会降低,故C项正确。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Maybe, in 10 years, there will be organ printers in the finest hospitals around the world and these procedures will be conducted routinely,” Dvir said.”可知,德维尔说,也许在10年内,世界上最好的医院将会有器官打印机,这
51、些程序将会成为常规操作,这表明德维尔对3D打印器官的未来是有信心的,故A项正确。DMy love for libraries blossomed when I joined the public library.From the age of 8, I was allowed to walk from my home to the downtown library, housed above the police station.Once the librarian (图书管理员) gave me my first membership card, I could enjoy a range

62、 library.(当我在大学学习英国文学时,我认为是时候建立自己的图书馆了)”可知,作者高中时代就很喜欢与文学相关的东西,大学也学习文学,甚至还想为此建立自己的图书馆。由此推知,作者非常喜欢文学。故选A项。【13题详解】推理判断题。由倒数第三段中的“This position resumed (恢复) my love and appreciation for libraries.(这个职位恢复了我对图书馆的热爱和欣赏)”及“I had a generous budget (预算) for my classes, so I searched for novels that would inte

64、 turning the library into an inclusive (包容的) public space, safe for everyone.(我买了沙发和舒适的椅子,把图书馆变成了一个包容的公共空间,对每个人都安全)”可知,作者成为图书管理员后,恢复了自己对图书馆的热爱和欣赏,为了激发学生对书的热爱,寻找各种学生想读的任何类型的书,买沙发和舒适的椅子,把图书馆变成了一个包容的公共空间,费心费力,可谓是全身心投入其中。故选B项。【14题详解】推理判断题。由最后一段中的“They help us adjust to the world, and their doors must be
65、 kept open to everyone for free!(图书馆帮助我们适应这个世界,图书馆的大门必须向所有人敞开免费!)”可推知,作者认为图书馆帮助人们适应这个世界,说明图书馆可用帮助人们联系世界。故选B项。【15题详解】推理判断题。第一段讲“作者对图书馆的热爱何时开始”,第二到四段讲“作者如何对去图书馆上瘾”,第五段讲“作者喜欢文学”,第六段讲“作者想要建立自己的图书馆,并为此收集书籍”,第七到九段讲“作者成为图书管理员,精心布置图书馆”,最后一段讲“作者认为图书馆是有益的”,全文都在讲作者对阅读和图书馆的热爱。由此推知,作者写这篇文章的主要目的是为了表达自己对阅读和图书馆的热爱,

74、生阶段后,生活会更好、会幸福”和下一句“If not now,when?”(如果不是现在,什么时候?)可知,上文一直在讲人们总期待着生活以后会变好、会幸福,但下文提及“不现在幸福,什么时候幸福”,说明现在才是最幸福的时候,承接上下文,F选项“事实是,没有比现在更幸福的时候了。”切题。故选F项。【18题详解】由上三句“For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to beginreal life. But there was always some obstacle in the way. Then life would beg
75、in.”(很长一段时间以来,我觉得生活即将开始真正的生活。但总有一些障碍。然后生活就开始了。)可知,Alfred D. Souza觉得真正生活还未开始时,障碍出现了,然后生活就开始了,说明障碍就是自己的生活,承接上文,A选项“我终于明白,这些障碍就是我的生活。”切题。故选A项。【19题详解】由第一二段讲的“度过一个人生阶段后,生活会更好、会幸福”,第三段中的“If not now,when?”(如果不是现在,什么时候?)和上一句“This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness.”(这种观点帮助我认识
76、到,没有通往幸福的路。)可知,人们总期待着生活以后会变好、会幸福,但幸福是从现在开始的,并没有通往(未来)幸福的路,现在变得幸福就是通往幸福的路,承接上文,E选项“幸福本身就是路。”切题;该选项中的“Happiness is the way”对应上文中的“way to happiness”。故选E项。【20题详解】此处是全文总结句。由“So,stop waiting until you finish school,until you go back to school,until you have kids,until your kids leave the house,until you r
77、etire,until you get married,until you get a new car or home,until your car or home is paid off, until youre off welfare,.until you die,until youre born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy.”(所以,不要等到你完成学业,回到学校,等你有了孩子,等你的孩子离开家,等你退休,等你结婚,等你有了一辆新车或一个新家,等你的车或房子还清了,直到你失去
78、幸福,直到你死去,直到你再次出生,决定没有比现在更幸福的时候了。)可知,上文作者一直在告诉读者一个道理:现在就是我们最幸福的时候,无需等着以后变得幸福,幸福存在于当下中,在当下的人生旅程中,并不是未来的终点,承接上文,C选项“幸福是一段旅程,不是终点。”切题。故选C项。第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节 完形填空 (共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。The Glover kids in Newburgh, New York, want to make a little extra money

Several persons went to the spot quickly and asked what was the matter. “Why

That lazy fellow refused to work when I offered him pay and hung around even when I ordered him off, and finally made faces and disrespectful gestures at me; so I was going to slap (掴耳光)him and he dropped like that.

114、 and cripple (跛子),perfectly harmless when you know him. We all humor him and let him stay around as long as he pleases, for his eyes are the chief blessings he possesses, and they cant injure anything.” When they lifted Danny, they found a bruise (擦伤)upon his forehead, and tears were slowly creeping
