There are usually no planned activities like games at a housewarming party. The host or hostess of the party will, however, probably give all the guests a tour of their new home. Sometimes, because a housewarming party happens shortly after a person moves into their new home, people may be asked to help unpack boxes. 9.Housewarming parties get their name from the fact that a long time ago people would actually bring firewood to a new home as a gift. 10. Now most homes have central heating and don’t use fires to keep warm.A.This isn’t usual though.B.It is traditional to bring a gift to a housewarming party.C.You can also bring food or drinks to share with the other guests.D.If you’re lucky enough to receive gifts, keep them in a safe place.E.It also gives people a chance to see what the new home looks like.F.The best housewarming parties encourage old friends to get together.G.This was so that the person could keep their home warm for the winter.【答案】6.E  7.B  8.C  9.A  10.G【解析】本文是说明文，介绍了乔迁聚会的目的，礼物的选取，活动安排和名称的由来。6.上句 The party is a chance for friends and family to congratulate the person on the new home.(这个聚会是朋友和家人祝贺新家的机会)。介绍庆祝乔迁之喜的聚会是亲戚朋友祝贺搬新家的人的一次机会，下句 And it is a good time to fill the new space with love and hopefully presents.(现在是时候用爱和希望的礼物来填补新家了)。介绍这也是给新家装满爱和希望礼物的好时机。E项：它也给了人们一次看看新家什么样的机会。与上下句并列，都是庆祝乔迁之喜聚会的目的，故选E。7.下文Some common things people will put on a gift registry include kitchen tools like knives and things like curtains.和like a piece of art or a plant. 列举了参加聚会所带礼物的清单，可以是厨房工具、窗帘、艺术品或绿植。这些都和参加聚会带礼物有关，B项：带礼物去参加乔迁派对是一种传统，概括了本段内容，引出下文，故选B。8.本段介绍了聚会的活动安排，根据后文This is often appreciated since at a housewarming there isn' t a lot of food served.(这一点通常是值得赞赏的，因为在乔迁派对上不会提供很多食物)。指出因为新搬家，所以主人不会准备太丰盛的食物或太多的活动。那么本句是在建议你可以带上自己的食物或饮料与其他客人分享搬家，所以主人不会准备太丰盛的食物或太多的活动。C项：你也可以带上食物或饮料与其他客人分享。故选C。9.本段提到在乔迁聚会上人们会聚餐，主人带领客人参观新家。上句提到，由于乔迁聚会是在搬进新家后不久举行的，人们可能会被要求帮助打开箱子。根据常识可知在乔迁聚会上让客人们帮忙干活是不常见的，A项：但这并不常见。表达了此意，与上文衔接，故选A。10.上句介绍了乔迁聚会名称的由来，根据bring firewood to a new home as a gift.可知人们会带柴火作为礼物，那么本空承接上文说明了带柴火的目的和作用。G项：这样人们就可以在冬天的时候保持家里温暖。符合语境。故选G。3.（2020年7月，浙江卷）I experienced years of loneliness as a child. 11. His friends teased him about babysitting his sister and his interests were far different from mine.

The human body is 60% water and we need to drink lots of water to be healthy. When we are thirsty we just go to the kitchen and fill a glass with clean water.21.For example, farmers, who produce the food we eat, use water to make the plants grow. When we turn on a light or switch on a TV or a computer we use energy and we need water to produce this energy.The truth is that we are lucky enough to have clean water whenever we want，but this is not the case for many people around the world.22.That's around one in 10 people in the world. If we drink dirty water，we can catch diseases from the bacteria and become ill. Every year over 500，000 children die from diarrhea(腹泻)from dirty water. That's around 1，400 children every day！Also，in some countries children walk many kilometres every day to get water.23.Therefore，they don't have time to learn how to read or write and don't get an education.24.On this day every year，countries around the world hold events to educate people about the problems of dirty water and that clean water is something that everyone should have around the world. At one school in the UK，children between the ages of 10 and 15 walk 6km with six litres of water.25.People give them money to do this and all the money helps get clean water to as many people as possible around the world.A.We use water indirectly too.B.Every system in our body depends on water to function.C.It is to inspire people to learn more about water-related problemsD.If children walk many hours a day to get water，they can't go to school.E.Did you know that around 750 million people do not have clean water to drink？F.In 1993 the United Nations decided that March 22nd is the World Day for Water.G.In this way，they know how it feels to walk a long distance carrying heavy bottles. 【答案】21.A  22.E  23.D  24.F  25.G【解析】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了水是我们生活中非常重要的能源，而世界上很多人并不像我们这样幸运能喝到干净的水。世界上大约有7.5亿人没有干净的水喝，每年有50多万儿童死于脏水引起的腹泻。就此联合国决定3月22日为世界水日，并在当天举办活动来教育人们关于脏水的问题，让人们知道清洁的水是全世界每个人都应该拥有的。21.根据下文For example, farmers, who produce the food we eat, use water to make the plants grow. When we turn on a light or switch on a TV or a computer we use energy and we need water to produce this energy.（例如，生产我们吃的食物的农民，使用水使植物生长。当我们打开电灯或电视或电脑的开关时，我们使用能源，我们需要水来产生这种能源）可知下文是在列举人们间接使用水的例子，故A选项“我们也间接地用水。”符合上下文语境，故选A。22.根据下文That's around one in 10 people in the world.（那大约是世界上十分之一的人）可推知本句为说明世界上没有干净水喝的人数。故E选项“你知道大约有7.5亿人没有干净的水喝吗?”符合上下文语境，故选E。23.根据上文Also，in some countries children walk many kilometers every day to get water.（而且，在一些国家，孩子们每天要走很多公里去取水）中walk many kilometers every day to get water可对应到D选项中walk many hours a day to get water，故D选项“如果孩子们每天走很多小时去取水，他们就不能去上学。”符合上下文语境，故选D。24.结合下文On this day every year，countries around the world hold events to educate people about the problems of dirty water and that clean water is something that everyone should have around the world.（每年的这一天，世界各国都会举办各种活动，让人们了解脏水的问题，让他们知道清洁的水是全世界每个人都应该拥有的）是在说明世界水日当天的活动，故可知本句为说明世界水日的设立时间，故F选项“1993年，联合国决定3月22日为世界水日。”符合上下文语境，故选F。25.根据前文At one school in the UK，children between the ages of 10 and 15 walk 6km with six litres of water.（在英国的一所学校，10到15岁的孩子负重6升水来步行6公里）可推知本句承接上文继续说明这一做法的意义是让孩子们了解带着沉重的瓶子走很长的距离是什么感觉。故G选项“通过这种方式，他们知道带着沉重的瓶子走很长的距离是什么感觉。”符合上下文语境，故选G。6.（2020年，全国卷II）Emoji(表情符号) and Workplace Communication In Asia, messaging platforms are growing rapidly, with users in the hundreds of millions, both at work and play.  36  .

If you exercise out of doors, your body will learn to breathe more deeply, allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles(肌肉) and your brain.Recently, people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing(治愈). 28. In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood(情绪).Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likely to recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. 29. It gives us a great feeling of peace.30.While the sun’s rays can age and harm our skin, they also give us beneficial Vitamin D  . To make sure you get enough Vitamin D—but still protect your skin—put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that’s plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day’s worth of Vitamin D  .A.Fresh air cleans our lungs.B.So what are you waiting for?C.Being in nature refreshes us.D.Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.E.But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?F.Just as importantly, we tend to associate air with health care.G.All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens.【答案】26.E  27.A  28.G  29.C  30.D【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了新鲜空气对人体的各种好处。26.根据下一句中的“the answer is a big YES”可知，该空应该是一个一般疑问句，选项中只有E选项是一般疑问句。E项“但是新鲜空气真得像你母亲说的那样对你有好处吗？”承上启下，故选E。空前的people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air”和选项中的“your mother always said”亦是呼应。27.根据下一句中提到的“If the air you’re breathing is clean…the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen”可知，新鲜空气充满赋予人生命的，充满活力的氧气。再根据下文中“…breathe more deeply, allowing more oxygen to get to your muscles and your brain”是对前文的递进，在户外，更多的氧气进入你的肌肉和大脑。根据前面的分析可以推知，该空应该提到新鲜空气的基本作用，根据常识，我们知道吸入的空气首先进入的是肺部，然后才会使我们的肌肉和大脑受益，故该空应选A项“新鲜空气清洁我们的肺部”。28.根据下一句中提到的“these places”可以推知，该空应该提到表示地点的复数名词。选项中只有G选项提到该类名词，故G项“在全国，康复中心已经开始建造‘康复花园’。”these places就是指Healing Gardens。29.前文介绍的是“康复花园”中的绿色植物对于病人康复的好的作用：绿色的正在成长的植物可以减轻压力，降低血压，使人情绪良好；空后提到“它给我们一种平和感”。该空起承上启下的作用，仍然要提到处于“康复花园”这种自然环境中的好处，空后的it也要指代这种情况。故选C项“身处大自然可以使人精神焕发。”30.根据下文中提到的“the sun’s rays…give us beneficial Vitamin D”可知，该段介绍阳光的好处。故该选项应该提到阳光。选项中只有D选项涉及阳光。故选D项“获得新鲜空气的另一个好处是阳光。”8.（2019年，全国卷II） Imagine a child standing on a diving board four feet high and asking himself the question: “Should I jump?” This is what motivation or the lack of it can do. Motivation and goal setting are the two sides of same coin. 31. Like the child on the diving board, you will stay undecided.32. More than that, how should you stay motivated to achieve the goal? First, you need to evaluate yourself, your values, your strengths, your weaknesses, your achievements, your desires, etc. Only then should you set your goals.You also need to judge the quality and depth of your motivation. This is quite important, because it is directly related to your commitment. There are times when your heart is not in your work. 33. So, slow down and think what you really want to do at that moment. Clarity(清晰) of thoughts can help you move forward.Another way of setting realistic goals is to analyze your short and long term objectives, keeping in mind your beliefs, values and strengths. Remember that goals are flexible. 34. They also need to be measurable. You must keep these points in mind while setting your goals.Your personal circumstances are equally important. For example, you may want to be a pilot but can’t become one because your eyesight is not good enough. 35.You should reassess your goals, and motivate yourself to set a fresh goal.You will surely need to overcome some difficulties, some planned, but most unplanned. You cannot overcome them without ample motivation. Make sure that you plan for these difficulties at the time of setting your goals.A.This can affect your work.B.So how should you motivate yourself?C.However, this should not discourage you.D.So why should we try to set specific goals?E.They can change according to circumstances.F.Motivation is what you need most to do a good job.G.Without motivation, you can neither set a goal nor reach it.【答案】31.G  32.B  33.A  34.E  35.C【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了动机和目标的关系以及如何激发动机并设定切实可行的目标。31.上文说“动机和目标设定是同一枚硬币的两面”，下文说“就像孩子在跳水台，你会犹豫不决。”，该空承上启下，G选项“没有动力，你就既不能设定目标，也无法实现它”切题，故选G。32.上一段阐述了动机和设定目标的关系，强调了动机的重要性，本队进一步讲如何激励自己并保持动力来实现目标。B选项“那么你应该如何激励自己呢？”承上启下，故选B。33.上文说“有时候你的心不在工作上”，下文说“所以，减慢速度，想一想那时候，你到底想干什么”。该空承上启下，A选项“这会影响你的工作”切题，故选A。34.上文说“记得，目标是灵活的”。该空承接上文，E选项“它们会根据环境的改变而改变”切题，故选E。35.上文说“你可能想当一名飞行员，但是不能成为一名飞行员，因为你的视力不够好。”下文说“你应该重新评估你的目标，并且设定一个新的目标”。该空承上启下，C选项“然而，这不应该使你气馁。”切题，故选C。9.（2019年，全国卷III）In an online class, developing healthy patterns of communication with professors is very important. 36. While I have only listed two of each, there are obviously many other situations that can arise.

Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals. 41.Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent?42.They focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed. For football and basketball, adding talented players to a team proves a good method, but only up to the point where 70% of the players are top talent; above that level, the team’s performance begins to decline. Interestingly, this trend isn’t evident in baseball, where additional individual talent keeps improving the team’s performance.To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate(协调) their actions. 43.In baseball, the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high, team performance will suffer when there is too much talent, while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball star is, for example, trying to gain a high personal point total, he may take a shot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate, affecting the team’s performance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told, “There is no I in TEAM.” 44.Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tug-of-war(拔河比赛), whenever a person is added, everyone else pulls the rope with less force.45. An A-team may require a balance--not just A players, but a few generous B players as well.A.It’s not a simple matter to determine the nature of talent.B.Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talent.C.The group interaction and its effect drew the researchers’ attention.D.Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship.E.Several recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world.F.Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.G.This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.【答案】41.B  42.E  43.G  44.D  45.F【解析】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章主要讲了建立一支最佳阵容球队比简单地雇佣最优秀的人才要复杂得多。一支一流球队可能需要一种平衡——不仅仅是最好球员，也需要一些有雅量的普通球员。41.上文说“大多数人相信建立一个伟大团队的最好方法就是聚集一群最有天赋的个人”。下文说“公司花费数百万雇佣顶级商业人士。”该空承上启下，也是在举例，B选项“运动队老板花费数百万美元吸引顶尖人才。”切题，故选B。42.下文说“他们专注于足球、篮球和棒球。结果有好有坏。”这些都属于体育方面，该空引出下文，E选项“最近的几项研究调查了体育世界中人才的作用。”切题，故选E。43.上文说“为了解释这一现象，研究人员探索了一场好的表现要求队员们协调他们行动的程度”，下文说明了研究结果，该空承上启下，G选项“这项任务的相互依赖性使棒球区别于足球和篮球。”切题，故选G。44.上文说了“一个球星为了个人得分，而影响团队的表现”，该空承接上文，D选项“球星显然没有遵守运动员精神的基本原则”切题，故选D。45.下文说“一支一流球队可能需要一种平衡——不仅仅是最好球员，也需要一些有雅量的普通球员。”该空引出下文，F选项“建立一支最佳阵容球队比简单地雇佣最优秀的人才要复杂得多。”切题，故选F。11.（2018年11月，浙江卷） Some people are so rude. Who sends an e-mail or a text message that just says “Thank you?” Who leaves a voice mail message rather than texts you? Who asks for a fact easily found on the Internet? 46.Maybe I’m the rude one for not appreciating life’s little courtesies(礼节). But many social norms(规范) just don’t make sense to people drowning in digital communication.Take the thank-you note. Daniel Post Senning, a coauthor of Emily Post’s Etiquette，asked, “At what point does showing appreciation outweigh the cost?”47. Think of how long it takes to listen to one of those messages. In texts, you don’t have to declare who you are or even say hello. E-mail, too, is slower than a text. The worst are those who leave a voice mail and then send an e-mail message to tell you they left a voice mail.This isn’t the first time technology has changed our manners, 48. Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor, suggested that people say, " Ahoy! "Finally, hello won out, and the victory sped up the greeting's use in face-to-face communications.In the age of the smart phone, there is no reason to ask once-acceptable questions about:the weather forecast, a business’s phone number, or directions to a house, a restaurant, or an office, which can be easily found on a digital map. 49. And when you answer, they respond with a thank-you e-mail.How to handle these differing standards? Easy: Consider your audience. Some people,especially older ones, appreciate a thank-you message. 50. In traditional societies, the young learn from the old. But in modern societies, the old can also learn from the young. Here's hoping that politeness never goes out of fashion but that time-wasting forms of communication do.A.Then there is voice mail.B.Others, like me, want no reply.C.But people still ask these things.D.Don’t these people realize that they’re wasting your time?E. Won't new technology bring about changes in our daily life?F. Face-to-face communication makes comprehension much easier.G. When the telephone was invented, people didn't know how to greet a caller.【答案】46.D  47.A  48.G  49.C  50.B【解析】本文是一篇说明文。科技时代新的交流方式冲击了传统礼节，造成了不同人对两者的不同运用。我们要多考虑对方的情况，互相理解，既有礼貌又尽量不浪费别人时间。46.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。本段提到一些人很粗鲁，下面列举了既发语音邮件又发信息浪费时间的具体表现。D项“难道这些人没有意识到他们在浪费你的时间吗?”对上面例子进行了总结，对这些做法提出了疑问。故选D。47.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据段中The worst are those who leave a voice mail and then send an e-mail message to tell you they left a voice mail.可知，作者提到留下语音邮件又发电子邮件通知的情况。A项Then there is voice mail.位于段首，引出voice mail，下文对其进行介绍。故选A。48.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor, suggested that people say, " Ahoy! "Finally, hello won out,可知当时Bell刚发明电话时怎样打招呼的问题，G项：当电话发明时，人们不知道如何和来电者打招呼。与下文连接，故选G。49.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。本段介绍智能手机时代数字地图能够解决许多生活查询问题，你帮助他们解决问题后，他们会回复你感谢邮件。C项But people still ask these things.与上文转折，与下文连接。故选C。50.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。本段介绍不同的人群对礼节有不同的看法，我们要多考虑对方的情况，互相理解。上句Some people, especially older ones, appreciate a thank-you message介绍了老年人的习惯，B项Others, like me, want no reply.与之对比，指出年轻人与老年人不同。故选B。12.（2019年6月，浙江卷）Rock music consists of many different styles. Even though there is a common spirit among all music groups, they make very different music. 51. At that time the Beatles entered the world of music from Liverpool.After they were given an invitation to appear live on BBC, the Beatles quickly became famous in Britain with nationwide tours. By mid-1963, the Beatles had been extremely popular in England. 52. They held large concerts and performed at clubs. They became the hottest thing on the pop music scene in England. They began as a modestly successful musician group and ended the year as show business legends(传说).

Thanks to the Beatles, a lot of opportunities were opened up to new faces on the market. 55.A.They decided on a tour to the United States in 1964.B.Even their hairstyles became major trends at that time.C.Rock music developed in the 1950s and the early 1960s.D.However, their songs changed the lives of generations to come.E.Many rock bands were able to follow in the footsteps of the Beatles.F.They appeared in the films A Hard Day's Night(1964)and Help！(1965).G.They performed their first concert in America at CBS television’s 53rd street studio.【答案】51.C  52.B  53.A  54.G  55.E【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文中讲述了披头士乐队的成功引领了摇滚乐等一系列新的潮流趋势。51.第一段讲述摇滚音乐，根据空后的at that time可知，前句提到了时间，而且与rock music有关，选项中只有C项讲的是摇滚音乐，并且讲述了其发展的时间，故选C。52.空前后都是讲述披头士的出名程度，根据空前extremely popular in England以及后文的they became the hottest thing可知，此处描述了他们的影响，选项B（甚至他们的发型在那时也成为了一种潮流）符合文意，且关键词even是一个提示，故选B。53.根据空后They were not sure how the Americans would react to the new type of music.（他们不确定美国人怎样反应），可知他们首次来美国演出，所以A项（决定首次到美国开巡回演出）符合文意，故选A。54.根据空后The concert was broadcast live and attracted the largest one night audience in the history of television up to that time.可知，前句中应该出现concert，选项G中的关键词their first concert 前后呼应。故选G。55.根据空前（由于披头士，市场上出现了很多新面孔），E项（很多摇滚乐队都是模仿披头士），符合逻辑，披头士乐队为摇滚乐开拓了市场。故选E。13.（2018年，北京卷）Why Do We Get Angry?Anger seems simple when we are feeling it, but the causes of anger are various. Knowing these causes can make us examine our behavior, and correct bad habits. The main reasons we get angry are triggering（触发）events, personality traits（特征）, and our assessment of situations. 56.Triggering events for anger are so many that to describe them all would take hundreds of pages. However, here are some examples: being cut off in traffic, a deadline approaching, experiencing physical pain, and much more. 57. The reason why someone is triggered by something and others are not is often due to one’s personal history and psychological traits.Each person, no matter who they are, has psychological imbalances. People who have personality traits that connect with competitiveness and low upset tolerance are much more likely to get angry. 58. Also, sometimes pre-anger does not have to do with a lasting condition, but rather a temporary state before a triggering event has occurred.59.Sometimes even routine occurrences become sources of pre-anger, or anger itself. Sometimes ignorance and negative (消极的) outlooks on situations can create anger.60.However, anger can easily turn violent, and it is best to know the reasons for anger to appear in order to prevent its presence. With these main reasons in mind, we can evaluate our level of anger throughout the day and prevent cases of outbursts by comprehending the reasons for our feelings.A.Our attitude and viewpoint on situations can create anger within us as well.B.But some types of situations can help us to get rid of the occurrence of anger.C.Anger is rarely looked upon as a beneficial character trait, and is usually advised to reduce it.D.Anger is a particularly strong feeling and maybe people think that they have reasons to feel angry.E.Having these personality traits implies the pre-anger state, where anger is in the background of your mind.F.Understanding these reasons will control our own anger if we are willing to evaluate ourselves with a critical eye.G.Not everyone acts the same in response to events, and that is why what triggers one person may or may not trigger another.【答案】56.F  57.G  58.E  59.A  60.D【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章分析了导致人们生气的三个原因并指出如何防止愤怒爆发。56.考查上下文理解和逻辑推理能力。上一句提到导致人们生气的三个主要原因： triggering（触发）events，personality traits（特征），our assessment of situations，下面的几段具体分析了这三个原因与生气的关系。故该句应该起承上启下的作用，故F选项（如果我们愿意用批判性的目光来评估自己的话，那么了解这些原因将会控制我们的愤怒。）承上启下，故选F。57.考查上下文理解和逻辑推理能力。该空前面两句提到引发愤怒的事件很多，例如：堵车，截止日期临近，身体疼痛等。下一句提到：某件事会激发一个人的怒气，但其他人却不会为此而生气的原因是由于个人的历史和心理特征。该空承上启下，应当提到某件事会使某些人生气，但不会使别人生气这个现象，故G选项（人们对这些事情的反应不一样，这就导致使一个人生气的事情可能会让另一个人生气，也可能不会让另一个人生气。）承上启下，故选G。58.考查上下文理解和逻辑推理能力。上一句提到：每个人都有自己的心里不平衡的地方。那些比较好强，气量比较小的人更容易生气。下一句提到：而且，有时候，pre-anger并不一定是一种持久的状态，而是一种触发事件发生前的暂时状态。该空承上启下，既要提到上一句中的那些性格特征，又要提到下一句中的pre-anger，故Having these personality traits implies the pre-anger state, where anger is in the background of your mind. （拥有这些个性特征意味着愤怒之前的状态，愤怒就在你的大脑背景中。）承上启下，故选E。59.考查上下文理解和逻辑推理能力。下一句提到：有时候，甚至常规性的事件也会变成pre-anger或恼怒的来源。有时候对这些情况的无知和负面观点会产生愤怒。该空位于段首，引出下文，故A选项（我们的对情况的态度和看法也会在我们内心产生愤怒。）是本段的主题句，概括全段内容，故选A。60.考查上下文理解和逻辑推理能力。下一句提到：但是生气很容易转变为暴力，所以最好了解一下愤怒的原因来阻止它的存在。该句和上一句之间是转折关系，结合剩余选项可知，D选项（愤怒是一种特别强烈的感情，或许人们认为他们有理由生气。）和下文构成转折关系，故选D。14.（2018年，全国卷I）Color is fundamental in home design—something you’ll always have in every room.

They’re the little spots of color like throw pillows, mirrors and baskets that most of us use to add visual interest to our rooms. Less tiring than painting your walls and less expensive than buying a colorful sofa, small color choices bring with them the significant benefit of being easily changeable.Medium color choices are generally furniture pieces such as sofas, dinner tables or bookshelves. 64.. They require a bigger commitment than smaller ones, and they have a more powerful effect on the feeling of a space.The large color decisions in your rooms concern the walls, ceilings, and floors. Whether you’re looking at wallpaper or paint, the time, effort and relative expense put into it are significant. 65..A.While all of them are usefulB.Whatever you’re looking forC.If you’re experimenting with a colorD.Small color choices are the ones we’re most familiar withE.It’s not really a good idea to use too many small color piecesF.So it pays to be sure, because you want to get it right the first timeG.Color choices in this range are a step up from the small ones in two major ways【答案】61.B  62.A  63.D  64.G  65.F【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了室内设计中颜色的选择问题。61.36题以逗号结尾，后面另起一个简单句，可以从句子结构排除D,E,F,G项。根据前文的三个问句可知，此处是从中选择一种。故选B（不管你寻找哪一种）。62.前文：在过去的许多年里，有许多技术帮助设计者实现这一要点；下文：它们有点复杂。所以A（然而他们都很有用）承上启下。符合题意。63.本空是一个主题句，总说选择小型颜色是我们很熟悉的方法。后文分说小型颜色选择具体用于哪些。故选D。64.根据前文“中型颜色选择通常是指一些例如沙发，餐桌或者书架等家具的颜色选择”，接着表明这种范围的颜色选择是比小型颜色选择在两种方式上更高一级，故选G。65.根据前文the time, effort and relative expense put into it are significant（你所付诸的时间、精力和相关的费用是巨大的），后文F项（那肯定是值得的，因为你想第一次把它弄好）是上文的结果。故选F。15.（2018年，全国卷II） If you are already making the time to exercise, it is good indeed!

But the next step is making sure that you remember what you've read! 81.you may have just read the text. But the ideas, concepts and images（形象）may fly right out of your head. Here are a few tricks for remembering what you read.● 82.If the plot, characters, or word usage is confusing for you, you likely won't be able to remember what you read. It's a bit like reading a foreign language. If you don't understand what you're reading, how would you remember it? But there are a few things you can do... Use a dictionary; look up the difficult words.● Are you connected?Does a character remind you of a friend? Does the setting make you want to visit the place? Does the book inspire you, and make you want to read more? With some books, you may feel a connection right away. 83.  How willing are you to make the connections happen?● Read it; hear it; be it!Read the lines. Then, speak them out loud.

Campers, in my eyes, were people who enjoyed insect bites, ill-cooked meals, and uncomfortable sleeping bags. They had nothing in common with me. 86.The friends who introduced me to camping thought that it meant to be a pioneer. 87. We slept in a tent, cooked over an open fire, and walked a long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom. This brief visit with Mother Nature cost me two days off from work, recovering from a bad case of sunburn and the doctor’s bill for my son’s food poisoning.I was, nevertheless, talked into going on another fun-filled holiday in the wilderness. 88. Instead, we had a pop-up camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner. My nature-loving friends had remembered to bring all the necessities of life.89. We have done a lot of it since. Recently, we bought a twenty-eight-foot travel trailer complete with a bathroom and a built-in TV set. There is a separate bedroom, a modern kitchen with a refrigerator. The trailer even has matching carpet and curtains.90. It must be true that sooner or later, everyone finds his or her way back to nature. I recommend that you find your way in style.A.This time there was no tent.B.Things are going to be improved.C.The trip they took me on was a rough one.D.I was to learn a lot about camping since then, however.E.I must say that I have certainly come to enjoy camping.F.After the trip, my family became quite interested in camping.G.There was no shade as the trees were no more than 3 feet tall.【答案】86.D  87.C  88.A  89.F  90.E【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己近三年来逐渐改变了对野营的看法，从以前对野营活动嗤之以鼻，经过几次野营后慢慢喜欢上了野营，最后表达野营将逐渐成为人类回归自然的很好方式，建议人们找到属于自己的方式。86.上文 They had nothing in common with me 说明作者原来认为他不会成为野营者.而下文主要描述的是"我"从最开始进行"rough travel"到有了"pop-up camper"再到有了 trailer 的过程，在这过程中作者对野营的爱好逐步增加，对野营的相关知识也在逐步增长，上下文呈转折关系.D项意为"然而在那之后我将会学到关于野营的很多知识"，起到转折作用，引出下文，符合语境.故正确答案为D。87.由下文 We sleep in a tent，cooked over an open fire，and walked a long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom 可知，"我"的野营条件非常艰苦.C项意为"他们带我去的旅途非常艰苦"，引出下文，符合语境.故正确答案为C。88.由下文 Instead，we had a pop-up camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner 可知，空格处是与下文形成转折的内容，而"我"此次旅行用了展开式营房.A项意为"这一次没有帐篷"，与下文形成转折，符合语境.故正确答案为A。89.由第三段第一句 going on another fun-filled holiday 可知，"我"对这次旅行非常满意，而由下文 We have done a lot of it since 可知，"我们"都爱上了野营.F项意为"从这里旅行后，我全家都对野营产生了巨大的兴趣"，承上启下，符合语境.故正确答案为F。90.由下文 sooner or later，everyone finds his or her way back to nature 可知，"我"希望每个人都能找到回归自然，也就是野营的个性化选择.形成这一观点的前提是"我"自己已经爱上了野营.E项意为"我必须承认我已经开始享受野营了"，引出下文，符合语境.故正确答案为E。20.（2017年，全国卷II）Interruptions (打扰) are one of the worst things to deal with while you’re trying to get work done. 91., there are several ways to handle things.

When lab rats are not allowed to sleep, they die within a month. 101.One idea is that sleep helps us strengthen new memories. 102. We  know that, while awake, fresh memories are recorded by reinforcing (加强) connections between brain cells, but the memory processes that take place while we sleep have been unclear.Support is growing for a theory that sleep evolved so that connections between neurons(神经元) in the brain can be weakened overnight, making room for fresh memories to form the next day.  103.Now we have the most direct evidence yet that he is right. 104.The synapses in the mice taken at the end of a period of sleep were 18 per cent smaller than those taken before sleep, showing that the connections between neurons weaken while sleeping.If Tononi’s theory is right, it would explain why, when we miss a night’s, we find it harder the next day to concentrate and learn new information — our brains may have smaller room for new experiences.Their research also suggests how we may build lasting memories over time even though the synapses become thinner. The team discovered that some synapses seem to be protected and stayed the same size. 105. “You keep what matters,” Tononi says.A.We should also try to sleep well the night before.B.It’s as if the brain is preserving its most important memories.C.Similarly, when people go for a few days without sleeping, they get sick.D.The processes take place to stop our brains becoming loaded with memories.E.That’s why students do better in tests if they get a chance to sleep after learning.F.“Sleep is the price we pay for learning,” says Giulio Tononi, who developed the idea.G.Tononi’s team measured the size of these connections, or synapses, in the brains of 12 mice.【答案】101.C  102.E  103.F  104.G  105.B【解析】这是一篇说明文。本文讲述了人和动物为什么需要睡眠的一些理论以及睡眠的重要性。101.根据前一句When lab rats are not allowed to sleep,they die within a month.当实验室的老鼠不允许睡觉时，一个月他们就死了，因此推断C项“同样，人几天不睡觉，也会生病”，人和动物对应起来，死和生病形成对应，故选C。102.前一句提到的睡觉有助于帮助我们加强新的记忆，因此推断学生在学习新知识后如果有机会睡一觉，他们在考试中就会表现得更好，前后逻辑关系很顺畅，因果联系，故选E。103.该空为段尾句，是对该段前面内容的总结，同时，结合第四段第一句话中的代词he可以知道，该空中必然包含一个人名，否则he就失去了所指对象，选项中包含人名的选项有F和G，但只有F选项能与第三段的内容衔接.也就是说，睡眠会帮助清除一部分记忆，为新记忆腾出空间，按照研究人员Tononi的话说，"睡眠是我们为学习付出的代价"。故选F。104.根据下文中提到的关键词synapses in the  mice以及整个句子可知，他肯定做了关于老鼠的实验，G项有关键词synapses，mice，都与他的实验有关，故选G。105.该空为尾段的倒数第二句话，应该与其前后的句子意义连贯.该空前面一句里出现了protect、stay，而该空后面一句出现了keep、matter，正好与选项B里的preserve和important呼应.也就是说，重要的记忆会被保留下来。前后逻辑关系顺畅，故选B。23.How to Do Man-on-the-Street InterviewsThe man-on-the-street interview is an interview in which a reporter hits the streets with a cameraman to interview people on the spot. 106. But with these tips, your first man-on-the-street interview experience can be easy.When your boss or professor sends you out to do man-on-the-street interviews for a story, think about the topic and develop a list of about ten general questions relating to it. For example, if your topic is about environmental problems in America, you might ask, “Why do you think environmental protection is important in America?” 107.Hit the streets with confidence. 108. Say, “Excuse me, I work for XYZ News, and I was wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic.” This is a quick way to get people to warm up to you.Move on to the next person if someone tells you she is not interested. Don’t get discouraged.109. Each interview that you get on the street shouldn’t be longer than ten minutes. As soon as you get the answer you need, move on to the next person.

Banks, companies, and government agencies use secret codes in doing business, especially when information is sent by computer.People have used secret codes for thousands of years. 111.Code breaking never lags (落后) far behind code making. The science of creating and reading coded messages is called cryptography.There are three main types of cryptography. 112.For example, the first letters of “My elephant eats too many eels” spell out the hidden message “Meet me.”113.You might represent each letter with a number, for example. Let’s number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message “Meet me” would read “13 5 5 20 13 5.”A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the message of a real code, you must have a code book. 114.For example, “bridge” might stand for “meet” and “out” might stand for “me.” The message “Bridge out” would actually mean “Meet me.” 115.However, it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long. So codes must be changed frequently.A.It is very hard to break a code without the code book.B.In any language, some letters are used more than others.C.Only people who know the keyword can read the message.D.As long as there have been codes, people have tried to break them.E.You can hide a message by having the first letters of each word spell it out.F.With a code book, you might write down words that would stand for other words.G.Another way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet.【答案】111.D 112.E  113.G  114.F  115.A【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了密码的重要性、密码的设置方式、密码本的作用。111.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。上句讲人们使用密码已经几千年了，下句讲密码破译工作。空白处和密码破译有关，D项内容符合语境，连接上下文。故选D。112.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。后面的例子是来证明人们设置密码时往往会利用一些单词的第一个字母作为密码，E项符合此内容，故选E。113.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据下文的解释内容可知介绍了密码设置的又一种方法，G项符合此意，故选G。114.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据下文的例子及上句中的a code book可以判断该句是介绍密码本的使用，F项符合此意，承上启下。故选F。115.考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。上文介绍密码本的重要作用，A项：没有密码本很难破译，总结上文。故选A。25.（2016年，全国卷II）A garden that’s just right for youHave you ever visited a garden that seemed just right for you, where the atmosphere of the garden appeared to total more than the sum(总和) of its parts? 116.. But it doesn’t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.● 117.Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers, patterns and masses of color. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that require less water and fewer fertilizers (肥料). 118.. However, there are a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from our earliest years.●Recall(回忆) your childhood memoriesOur model of what a garden should be often goes back to childhood. Grandma’s rose garden and Dad’s vegetable garden might be good or bad, but that’s not what’s important. 119. — how being in those gardens made us feel.

Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult. 122. This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.123. Fresh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that you’re standing at the ocean’s edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh.  124. When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you’d better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don’t cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.There are many common methods used to cook fish.  125. First, clean it and season it with your choiceof spices(调料). Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about onepound. (A larger one will take more time.) Then, it’s ready to serve.  A. Do not buy it.B. The easiest is to steam it.C. This is how you can do it.D. It just requires a little knowledge.E. The fish will go bad within hours.F. When buying fish, you should first smell it.G. The fats in fish are thought to help prevent heart disease.【答案】121.G   122.D  123.F  124.A   125.B【解析】文章主要介绍了一些买鱼和烧鱼的常识。带有强烈气味的鱼不新鲜，最简单的方法是蒸鱼。121.G第一句＂Everyone knows that fish is good for health.＂是总写，But表示转折，说明But前面一句是对第一句的解释，G项＂鱼中的脂肪有助于预防心脏病＂符合语境，故选G。122.D 由前一句＂Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult.＂可知，购买，存放和烧鱼并非难事，再根据后面一句可知，文章主要介绍了买鱼和烧鱼的简单知识，D项＂这仅仅需要一点知识＂符合语境，此题容易与C项混淆，C项后面应该直接跟烧鱼的方法，即C项与后一句重复，故选D。123.F 根据＂Fresh fish should smell sweet＂可知，本段讲的是买鱼的时候要闻一下鱼的气味，故选F。124.A 根据前一句＂Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh.＂可知，带有强烈的味道的鱼都不是新鲜的，不应该买这样的鱼，A项与后句联系紧密，故选A。125.B 根据＂Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes＂可知，本段介绍的是蒸鱼的方法，故选B。27.（2016年，北京卷）The Science of Risk-SeekingSometimes we decide that a little unnecessary danger is worth it because when we weigh the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth taking. 126. Some of us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us. Why? Experts say it may have to do with how our brains work?The reason why any of us take any risks al all might have to do with early humans. Risk-takers were better at hunting, fighting, or exploring. 127. As the quality of risk-taking was passed from one generation to the next, humans ended up with a sense of adventure and a tolerance for risk.So why aren’t we all jumping out of airplanes then? Well, even 200,000 years ago, too much risk-taking could get one killed. A few daring survived, though, along with a few stay-in-the-cave types. As a result, humans developed a range of character types that still exists today. So maybe you love car racing, or maybe you hate it. 128.No matter where you are on the risk-seeking range, scientists say that your willingness to take risks increases during your teenage years. 129. To help you do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experiences. New experiences often mean taking some risks, so your brain raises your tolerance for risk as well.130. For the risk-seekers a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active.As experts continue to study the science of risk-seeking, we’ll continue to hit the mountains, the waves or the shallow end of the pool.A.It all depends on your character.B.Those are the risks you should jump to take.C.Being better at those things meant a greater chance of survival.D.Thus, these well-equipped people survived because they were the fittest.E.This is when you start to move away from your family and into the bigger world.F.However, we are not all using the same reference standard to weigh risks and rewards.G.New brain research suggests our brains work differently when we face a nervous situation.【答案】126.F  127.C  128.A  129.E  130.G【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人们喜欢冒险的来源和科学依据，人们都喜欢冒险，因为风险也意味着回报，生活中人们喜欢做一些让别人意外和害怕的事，这和人的大脑有关.126.根据前文because when we weigh the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth tasking.当我们衡量风险和回报时，风险值得去冒。根据后文Some of us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us.有些人喜欢做一些让别人意外和害怕的事。也就是说衡量风险的标准每个人都可能不一样.故F选项 “然而，我们并不是都使用相同的参考标准来衡量风险和回报”与上文为转折关系，且承接下文。故选F。127.根据前文Risk-takers were better at hunting，fighting，or exploring.喜欢冒险的人表现更优秀，这意味着他们有更大的机会生存下去。故C选项“这意味着他们有更大的机会生存下去”承接上文。故选C。128.根据前文So maybe you love car racing，or maybe you hate it.也许你喜欢赛车，也许你不喜欢，这要依据你的性格。故A选项“这要依据你的性格”承接上文。故选A。129.根据前文scientists say that your Willingness to take risks increases during your teenage years.科学家们指出冒险的意愿在年轻时会不断强烈。根据下文To help you do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experiences.为了帮你实现那些，大脑会不断增加你对新的经历的渴望。而这些是在你离开家庭，走进一个更大的世界的时候。故E选项“这些是在你离开家庭，走进一个更大的世界的时候”承接上下文。故选E。130.根据下文For the risk-seekers a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active.不同的人的大脑在处理快乐和恐惧时表现也会不一样。故前面应该是说大脑的不同反应。故G选项“新的大脑研究表明，当我们面对紧张的情况时，我们的大脑会以不同的方式工作” 承接下文。故选G。27.（2016年，四川卷） Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries. 131. In general, they can expect to live six or seven years more than men. One reason for this is biological.One important biological factor that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones between men and women. 132. Between the ages of about 12 and 50, women produce hormones that are involved in fertility(生育能力). These hormones also have a positive effect on the heart and blood flow. In fact, women are less likely to have high blood pressure or to die from heart attacks.133.They help the body defend itself against some kinds of infections. This means that women generally ger sick less often and less seriously than men. The common cold is a good example: women, on average, get fewer colds than men.134.Scientists are still not exactly sure how influence aging, but they believe that they do. Some think that a woman’s body cells have a tendency(向) to age more slowly than a man’s. Others think that a man’s body cells have a tendency to age more quickly.135.A.However, women, on average, live longer.B.The biological factor plays an important part.C.Women are also helped by their female genes.D.The female hormones also protect the body in another way.E.Recent research seems to support both of these possibilities.F.Therefore, women are more healthy than men and can live a better life.G.Hormones are chemicals which are produced by the body to control carious body functions【答案】131.A  132.G  133.D  134.C  135.E【解析】本文讲述了女性比男性寿命长的原因。131.根据空格下一句：一般说，她们比男性多活6到7年。故空格处讲的是女性平均比男性寿命更长。故选A。132.根据空格上句：一个重要的帮助女性活得更长的生理因素是男性和女性之间荷尔蒙的不同。再根据空格下句：在大约12到50岁之间，女性生产参与生育的荷尔蒙。故此空与荷尔蒙有关，故G项“荷尔蒙是身体生产的控制各种身体功能的化学物质。”符合上下文语境。故选G。133.根据下句：它们帮助身体本身抵抗各种感染。故D项“女性荷尔蒙也用另一种方式保护身体。”符合语境。故选D。134.根据下句：科学家仍然没有确切地表明基因怎样影响年龄，但是他们认为基因却是在影响年龄。故C项“女性基因也在帮助女性。”符合语境。故选C。135.根据空格前两句：一些人认为女性身体细胞有比男性老化慢的倾向，另一些人认为男性身体细胞有老化快的倾向。故E项“最近研究似乎支持这两种可能”总结前两句。故选E。28.（2016年10月，浙江卷）How to Have a Successful Teenage LifeEveryone wants to succeed in their life, don’t they?

A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of healthy information. Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to fins relevant information, how to separate fact from opinions, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources. 166.Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out for yourself what a study really reported, and determine whether it was based on good science. Think about the type of study. 167.Watch for misleading language.

The word business also refers to an organization that provides these goods and services. Most businesses seek to make a profit（利润）— that is, they aim to achieve income that is more than the costs of operating the business.171.Commonly called nonprofits, these organizations are primarily nongovernmental service providers.172..Business management is a term used to describe the techniques of planning, direction, and control of the operations of a business.173.One is the establishment(制定) of broad basic policies with respect to production; sales; the purchase of equipment, materials and supplies; and accounting.174.The third relates to the establishment of standards of work in all departments. Direction is concerned primarily with supervision(监管) and guidance by the management in authority.175.A.Control includes the use of records and reports to compare actual work with the set standards for work.B.In this connection there is the difference between top management and operative management.C.Examples of nonprofit businesses include such organizations as social service agencies and many hospitals.D.However, some businesses only seek to earn enough to cover their operating costs.E.The second aspect relates to the application of these policies by departments.F.In the theory of business management, organization has two main aspects.G.Planning in business management has three main aspects.【答案】171.D  172.C  173.G  174.E  175.A【解析】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了商业上的一些情况，商业的运转需要商业的管理，这种管理涉及到商业计划，发展方向和公司的管理调控等三个方面，本文围绕这几个方面进行了介绍。171.根据上下文可知，大多数企业都在寻求利润——也就是说，他们的目标是获得超过企业运营成本的收入。这些组织通常被称为非营利组织，主要是非政府服务提供商。所以选项与前文为转折关系且承接下文。故D选项“然而，一些企业只寻求赚足够的钱来支付他们的运营成本”切题。故选D项。172.根据上文提到非盈利公司，下文列举了几种非盈利组织，故C选项“非营利企业的例子包括社会服务机构和许多医院”切题。故选C项。173.根据第二段的第一句是总述，商业管理是一个术语，用于描述业务运营的计划、指导和控制技术起到总领下文的作用，接下来从三方面进行分述the techniques of planning, direction, and control of the operations of a business，按顺序先说planning。故G选项“企业管理中的计划有三个主要方面”切题。故选G项。174.根据上文经营管理计划有三个方面和前面的One，后面句中的The third可知，这里谈得是第二方面， 故E选项“第二个方面与各部门对这些政策的应用有关”切题。故选E项。175.根据首句商业管理是一个术语，用于描述业务运营的计划、指导和控制技术起到总领下文的作用。可知，本段主要讲述the techniques of planning, direction, and control三个方面，前文讲了两个方面，由此判断接下来是第三个方面。故A选项“控制包括使用记录和报告将实际工作与工作的既定标准进行比较”切题。故选A项。37.（2013年，全国卷II）Public Speaking TrainingGet a coach176.，so get help. Since there are about a billion companies out there all ready to offer you public speaking training and courses, here are some things to look for when deciding the training that’s right for you.Focus on positivesAny training you do to become more effective at public speaking should always focus on the positive aspects of what you already do well. Nothing can hurt confidence more than being told that you aren’t doing well.177., so good public speaking training should develop those instead of telling you what you shouldn’t do.178.If you find a public speaking course that looks as though it’s going to give you lots of dos and don’ts, walk away! Your brain is so full of what you’re going to be talking about.179. . As far as we’re concerned, there are basically no hard and fast rules about public speaking. Your audience can be your friends.You are a special person not a cloneMost importantly, good public speaking training should treat you as a special one, with your own personal habits. 180.. Your training course should help you bring out your personality, not try to turn you into someone you’re not.A.You aren’t like anybody elseB.You already do lots of things wellC.Turn your back on too many rulesD.Practise speaking whenever possibleE.Whatever the presentation, public speaking is toughF.The one thing you don’t want is for them to fall asleepG.So trying to force a whole set of rules into it will just make things worse【答案】176.E  177.B  178.C  179.G  180.A【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了进行公共演讲的训练要点。你可以找到一个教练帮助你进行公众演讲训练，也可以参加公众演讲训练课，并且指出应该找到适合自己的培训机构。176.根据下一句ready to offer you public speaking training and courses（准备为你提供公开演讲训练和课程）可知开头说的是与public speaking（公开演讲）有关的问题，E项：Whatever the presentation，public speaking is tough.无论什么样的演讲，公开演讲都很难。符合文意，故选E。177.本题位于段中，通过上下文得出选项。后一句so good public speaking training should develop those与空格形成因果关系，所以空格中应表达"你已经做得很好了"的含义，B项：You already do lots of things well你已经做了很多事情了。符合文意，故选B。178.本题位于段首，为整段的主旨大意。本段第一句中提到lots of dos and don'ts，walk away!可知如果有的培训将太多的条条框框的话，要对条条框框说不，C项：Turn your back on too many rules背弃太多的规矩。符合文意，故选C。179.从前句Your brain is so full of what you're going to be talking about，可知后一空与前一空形成因果关系，脑子里装满了条条框框只会使情况变得更糟。G项：So trying to force a whole set of rules into it will just make things worse.因此试图将一整套规则强行纳入其中只会使事情变得更糟。符合文意，故选G。180.小标题为You are a special person not a clone（你是一个特别的人而不是一个克隆人）以及treat you as a special one，with your own personal habits（把你当作一个特殊的人，用你自己的习惯）可以得出答案You aren't like anybody else（你是与众不同）。故选A。38.（2013年，北京卷）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中的两项为多余选项。UrbanizationUntil relatively recently, the vast majority of human being lived and died without ever seeing a city. The first city was probably founded no more than 5,500 years ago.181.In fact, nearly everyone lived on farms or in tiny rural (乡村的) villages. It was not until the 20th century that Great Britain became the first urban society in history—a society in which the majority of people live in cities and do not farm for a living.Britain was only the beginning.182.The process of urbanization—the migration (迁徙) of people from the countryside to the city—was the result of modernization, which has rapidly transformed how people live and where they live.In 1900, fewer than 40% of Americans lived in urban areas. Today, over 82% of Americans live in cities. Only about 2% live on farms.183.Large cities were impossible until agriculture became industrialized. Even in advanced agricultural societies, it took about ninetyfive people on farms to feed five people in cities.184.Until modern times, those living in cities were mainly the ruling elite (精英) and the servants, laborers and professionals who served them. Cities survived by taxing farmers and were limited in size by the amount of surplus（过剩）food that the rural population produced and by the ability to move this surplus from farm to city.Over the past two centuries, the Industrial Revolution has broken this balance between the city and the country.185.Today, instead of needing ninetyfive farmers to feed five city people, one American farmer is able to feed more than a hundred nonfarmers.A.That kept cities very small.B.The rest live in small towns.C.The effects of urban living on people should be considered.D.Soon many other industrial nations became urban societies.E.But even 200 years ago, only a few people could live in cities.F.Modernization drew people to the cities and made farmers more productive.G.Modern cities have destroyed social relations and the health of human beings.【答案】181.E  182.D  183.B  184.A  185.F【解析】本文是说明文。文章的主题是城市化。文章讲述了过去城市规模小，农民人口多，到现代化之后，农民人口变少，但农业产量反而增加，更多的人住在城市，体现了社会的变迁。181.根据前一句“The first city was probably founded no more than 5,500 years ago”可知，此处讲的是以前城市的情况，即第一座城市仅仅是5500年才出现的，甚至200年前，也只有很少一部分人生活在城市中。其他几个选项没有关于以前城市的描述。故选择E。182.根据前一句的“Britain was only the beginning”可知，英国只是个开始，关键词beginning，因此后面出现的是soon，句意：英国只是个开始，很快，其他工业国家也变成了城市化社会。故选择D。183. 根据前一句的“Today, over 82% of Americans live in cities. Only about 2% live on farms”可知，目前，超过82%的美国人住在城市，只有2%的人住在农场，在讲完了82%和2%之后，还有剩下的人呢，住在哪里呢？因此可以推断出，下一句讲述的是the rest即，其余的人住在什么地方。因此，选择B，其余的人住在城镇里。故选择B。184.根据前一句的“It took about ninety-five people on farms to feed five people in cities”可知，要有95个人在农场里工作，才能养活5个城市里的人，因此城市里居住的人肯定要少，规模肯定很小，因此选择A项，这种原因导致了城市规模很小。故选择A。185.根据后面的“Today, instead of needing ninety-five farmers to feed five city people, one American farmer is able to feed more than a hundred non-farmers”可知，现在一个美国人在农场里工作，可以养活100多个非农美国人，因此现代化让农民更加多产，让更多的人可以居住在城市里。故选择F。39.（2013年，四川卷）根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项多余选项。（共5小题；--James, can I have some black tea?--Sure,186.--Well, just a little, please.--Two teaspoons?--187.I have gained some weight these days.(Minutes later. )--How nice it is!--188.--Yes, please.

Turn on the TV, and you’re showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting, competing, and generally treating one another with no respect.197.There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples. Humans are socially related by nature.198.Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect. Besides, empathy can be a cure for loneliness, sadness, anxiety, and fear.Empathy is also an indication of a good leader. In fact, Freed says, many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers.199.“Academics are important. But if you don’t have emotional (情感的) intelligence, you won’t be as successful in work or in your love life,” she says.What’s the best way to up your EQ (情商）? For starters, let down your guard and really listen to others.200.To really develop empathy, you’d better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital, join a club or a team that has a diverse membership, have a “sharing circle” with your family, or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.A.Everyone is different, and levels of empathy differ from person to person.B.That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time, the researchers said.C.“One doesn’t develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking,” Freed says.D.Humans learn by example—and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.E.Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else—both what they think and how they feel.F.Good social skills—including empathy—are a kind of “emotional intelligence” that will help you succeed in many areas of life.G.Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human—and having empathy is decisive to those relationships. 【答案】196.B  197.D  198.G  199.F  200.C【解析】本文是议论文。文章指出现在人们的同理心在急剧下降，分析了下降的原因并讲述了同理心的重要性和如何培养同理心。196.考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是：在过去的十年里在大学生中理解他人的能力在急剧下降；空后的意思是：今天人们花更多的时间单独相处而很少参加社团。B项（研究者说，那可能是因为许多人用视频代替了面聊。）与上下文一致，说明了原因。故选B。197.考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是：打开电视机你看到的都是一些人互相竞争，互相争斗，没有互相尊重；所以D项（人们通过这些例子学习——大多数这些例子什么都有就是没有同理心）是对上文的总结。故选D。198.考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是：人类是和自然密切相关的。空后的意思是：研究者发现有同理心的青少年会有更高的自我尊重。G项（和其他人保持关系是成为人的很重要的一部分，拥有同理心对那些关系很重要。）与上下文一致。故选G。199. 考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是：实际上，Freed说许多顶级公司报告说同理心也是他们寻找经理的一个重要的部分。F项（好的社会技能包括同理心，这种情感智力能使你在生活的许多方面都取得很大的成功。）是对上文的说明。故选F。200.考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是：对于初学者来说，放下防护，倾听他人。下文是发展同理心的具体做法，C项（一个人不会因为有很多观点，说了很多话而产生同理心。）与上下文一致。故选C。41.（2011年，北京卷）Public speaking and critical thinkingWhat is critical thinking ? to a certain degree ,it’s a matter of logic （逻辑）—of being able to spot weaknesses in other people ‘s argument and to avoid them in your own ,it also includes related skills such as distinguishing fact from opinion and assessing the soundness of evidence .In the broad sense ,critical thinking is focused ,organized thinking –the ability to see clearly their lationships among ideas. 1 the greatest thinkers ,scientists ,and inventors have often taken information that was readily available and put it together differently to produce new ideas.that,too,is critical thinking.  2  As the class goes on, for example, you will probably spend a good deal of time organizing your speeches. While this may seem like a purely mechanical（机械的）exercise, it is closely connected with critical thinking. If the structure of your speech is loose and confused, chances are that your thinking. If the stucture of your speech is loose and confused, chances are that your thinking is also discovered and confused. If, on the other hand ,the stucture is clear, there is a good chance your thinking is too. Organizing a speech is not a matter of arraging the ideas your already have.    3What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking.   4  As you work on expressing your ideas in clear, accurate language, you will Improve your ability to think clearly and accutately.   5  As you learn to listen critically to speeches in class. You will be better able to assess the ideas of speakers in a variety of situations.If you take full advantage of your speech class, you will be able to develop your skills as critical thinker in many circumstances. This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education since the days of ancient Greece.
