第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分35分) 第一节(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 C1[2017·浙江11月考]

A

When I was in fourth grade, I worked part-time as a paper boy. Mrs Stanley was one of my

customers. She'd watch me coming down her street, and by the time I'd biked up to her doorstep, there'd be a cold drink waiting. I'd sit and drink while she talked.

Mrs Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband, “Mr Stanley and I went shopping this morning，” she'd say. The first time she said that, soda(汽水) went up my nose.

I told my father how Mrs Stanley talked as if Mr Stanley were still alive. Dad said she was probably lonely, and that I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile, and maybe she'd work__it__out__of__her__system. So that's what I did, and it turned out Dad was right. After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery(墓地)．

I finally quit delivering newspapers and didn't see Mrs Stanley for several years. Then we crossed paths at a church fund-raiser(募捐活动). She was spooning mashed potatoes and looking

happy. Four years before, she'd had to offer her paper boy a drink to have someone to talk with. Now she had friends. Her husband was gone, but life went on.

I live in the city now, and my paper boy is a lady named Edna with three kids. She asks me how I'm doing. When I don't say “fine”， she sticks around to hear my problems. She's lived in the city most of her life, but she knows about community. Community isn't so much a place as it is a state of mind. You find it whenever people ask how you're doing because they care, and not because they're getting paid to do so. Sometimes it's good to just smile, nod your head and listen.

21．Why did soda go up the author's nose one time? A．He was talking fast. B．He was shocked. C．He was in a hurry.

D．He was absent­minded.

22．Why did the author sit and listen to Mrs Stanley according to Paragraph 3? A．He enjoyed the drink. B．He wanted to be helpful. C．He took the chance to rest. D．He tried to please his dad.

23．Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “work it out of her system”？

A．recover from her sadness

B．move out of the neighbourhood C．turn to her old friends D．speak out about her past

24．What does the author think people in a community should do? A．Open up to others. B．Depend on each other. C．Pay for others' help. D．Care about one another.

【要点综述】 本文是一篇记叙文，作者在小学四年级的时候，曾经给斯坦利太太做过报童，那时斯坦利太太刚经历了丧夫之痛，喋喋不休地向作者倾诉。在父亲的嘱咐下，作者认真倾听，力所能及地帮助斯坦利太太，最终斯坦利太太走出了阴影。作者长大后经常与自己的送报人诉说生活中的问题。作者认为，社区是个需要互相关爱的地方。

21．B 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Mrs Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband, ‘Mr Stanley and I went shopping this morning.’”及第三段中“I told my father how Mrs Stanley talked as if Mr Stanley were still alive.”可推知，斯坦利先生已经去世了， 而斯坦利太太却对“我”说早上她和斯坦利先生出去购物，一个四年级的小孩子第一次听到后感到很震惊，所以选B项。

22．B 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Dad said she was…I ought to sit and listen and nod…So that's what I did…she seemed content…”等细节可知，“我”遵照父亲的嘱咐，静静地坐着倾听，希望能够帮助到她。

23．A 词义猜测题。根据第三段中“After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery(墓地)．”可知，斯坦利太太刚开始无法接受丈夫去世的事实，常常向作者“喋喋不休地倾诉”。但慢慢地，时间抚平了创伤，她也从丧夫之痛中恢复了过来。

24．D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Community isn't so much a place as it is a state of mind. You find it whenever people ask how you're doing because they care… ”可推知，在社区中，人与人之间需要互相关爱，互相砥砺，有时候哪怕仅仅是微笑，点头或倾听，都能够给别人

以关心，故选D项。

C8[2017·浙江11月考]

B

It's surprising how much simple movements of the body can affect the way we think. Using expansive gestures with open arms makes us feel more powerful, crossing your arms makes you more determined and lying down can bring more insights(领悟)．

So if moving the body can have these effects, what about the clothes we wear? We're all well aware of how dressing up in different ways can make us feel more attractive, sporty or professional, depending on the clothes we wear, but can the clothes actually change cognitive(认知的) performance or is it just a feeling?

Adam and Galinsky tested the effect of simply wearing a white lab coat on people's powers of attention. The idea is that white coats are associated with scientists, who are in turn thought to have close attention to detail.

What they found was that people wearing white coats performed better than those who weren't. Indeed, they made only half as many errors as those wearing their own clothes on the Stroop Test(one way of measuring attention). The researchers call the effect “enclothed cognition”， suggesting that all manner of different clothes probably affect our cognition in many different ways.

This opens the way for all sorts of clothes­based experiments. Is the writer who wears a fedora more creative? Is the psychologist wearing little round glasses and smoking a cigar more insightful? Does a chef's hat make the resultant food taste better?

From now on I will only be editing articles for PsyBlog while wearing a white coat to help keep the typing error count low. Hopefully you will be doing your part by reading PsyBlog in a cap and gown(学位服)．

25．What is the main idea of the text?

A．Body movements change the way people think. B．How people dress has an influence on their feelings.

C．What people wear can affect their cognitive performance. D．People doing different jobs should wear different clothes.

26．Adam and Galinsky's experiment tested the effect of clothes on their wearers'________． A．insights B．movements C．attention D．appearance

27．How does the author sound in the last paragraph? A．Academic. B．Humorous. C．Formal. D．Hopeful.

【要点综述】 该文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了“具衣认知理论”，该理论认为人们的衣着会影响到人们的认知表现。

25．C 主旨大意题。根据文章第二段最后一句中“… but can the clothes actually change cognitive(认知的) performance or is it just a feeling？”并结合下文可知，本文主要谈论的是人们的穿着能够影响到人们的认知表现，故C项能概括全文。

26．C 细节理解题。根据第三段“Adam and Galinsky tested the effect of simply wearing a white lab coat on people's powers of attention.”可知，该实验主要测试被试者的注意力，由此选C项。

27．B 推理判断题。根据第四段和第五段的结论，穿着对人们的认知表现有影响，穿白色衣服的测试者在注意力测试中犯的错误更少。又根据最后一段“…I will only be editing articles for PsyBlog while wearing a white coat…”可知作者用幽默风趣的语言来说明具衣效应对人们认知表现的影响，故选B项。

C7[2017·浙江11月考]

C

There are energy savings to be made from all recyclable materials, sometimes huge savings. Recycling plastics and aluminum, for instance, uses only 5% to 10% as much energy as producing new plastic or smelting(提炼)aluminum.

Long before most of us even noticed what we now call “the environment”， Buckminster Fuller said, “Pollution is nothing but the resources(资源)we are not harvesting. We allow them to be left around because we've been ignorant of their value.” To take one example, let's compare the throwaway economy(经济)with a recycling economy as we feed a cat for life.

Say your cat weighs 5kg and eats one can of food each day. Each empty can of its food weighs 40g. In a throwaway economy, you would throw away 5，475 cans over the cat's 15-year lifetime.

That's 219kg of steel—more than a fifth of a ton and more than 40 times the cat's weight.

In a recycling economy, we would make one set of 100 cans to start with, then replace them over and over again with recycled cans. Since almost 3% of the metal is lost during reprocessing, we'd have to make an extra 10 cans each year. But in all, only 150 cans will be used up over the cat's lifetime—and we'll still have 100 left over for the next cat.

Instead of using up 219kg of steel, we've used only 6kg. And because the process of recycling steel is less polluting than making new steel, we've also achieved the following significant savings: in energy use—47% to 74%; in air pollution—85%; in water pollution—35%; in water use—40%.

28．What does Buckminster Fuller say about pollution? A．It is becoming more serious. B．It destroys the environment. C．It benefits the economy.

D．It is the resources yet to be used.

29．How many cans will be used up in a cat's 15-year lifetime in a recycling economy?

A．50. B．100. C．150. D．250. 30．What is the author's purpose in writing the text? A．To promote the idea of recycling. B．To introduce an environmentalist. C．To discuss the causes of pollution. D．To defend the throwaway economy.

【要点综述】 本文主要通过循环利用罐头盒一例，来阐述该如何利用回收材料以达到节能的目的。

28．D 细节理解题。根据第二段中“…Buckminster Fuller said, ‘Pollution is nothing but the resources(资源)we are not harvesting. We allow them to be left around because we've been ignorant of their value.’”可知，Buckminster Fuller认为所谓的污染就是指那些还未得到充分利用的资源，我们忽视了它们的价值，由此选D项。

29．C 细节理解题。根据第四段中“But in all, only 150 cans will be used up over the cat's lifetime…”可知，在猫的一生中需要用掉150个罐头盒。

30．A 写作意图题。根据第一段中 “There are energy savings to be made from all recyclable materials, sometimes huge savings.” 和第二段中“To take one example, let's compare the throwaway economy(经济)with a recycling economy as we feed a cat for life.”可知，作者在文章开头就提出了观点，认为循环回收经济能够大幅度地节能。而后又具体通过猫罐头来进一步例证。由此，我们推断作者写本文的目的在于倡导“循环回收”的理念，故选A项。

第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)

L2[2017·浙江11月考]

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。选项中有两项为多余选项。

How to remember what you read

Reading is important. But the next step is making sure that you remember what you've read! __31__ 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.

● __32__

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. __33__ How willing are you to make the connections happen?

● Read it; hear it; be it!

Read the lines. Then, speak them out loud. And, put some character into the words. When he was writing his novels, Charles Dickens would act out the parts of the characters. He'd make faces in the mirror, and change his voice for each character. __34__ ● How often do you read?

If you read frequently, you'll likely have an easier time with remembering what you're reading (and what you've read). __35__ As you make reading a regular part of your life, you'll make more connections, stay more focused and understand the text better. You'll learn to enjoy literature—as you remember what you read!

A．Are you confused? B．Practice makes perfect. C．What's your motivation?

D．Memory is sometimes a tricky thing.

E．Marking helps you remember what you read.

F．But other books require a bit more work on your part. G．You can do the same thing when you are reading the text!

【要点综述】 本文主要介绍了如何记住自己阅读过的知识和信息。

31．D 根据上一句“But the next step is making sure that you remember what you've read！”和下一句“You may have just read the text, but the ideas, concepts and images(形象) may fly right out of your head.”可知，记忆并不是很容易的事情，你原本以为记住的东西，但最终可能只记住了一点而已。故D项“记忆有时候具有迷惑性。”符合上下句的衔接，所以选用D选项。

32．A 由“If the plot, characters, or word usage is confusing for you, you likely won't be able to remember what you read.”等信息可知，该段主要讲述碰到一些“令人疑惑的”信息时该如何记忆，故选用A选项能概括该段大意。

33．F 由空格前提到的信息可知，关联性是阅读中的重要一环，有些书能够让你的知识马上关联起来，而还有些书可能需要你努力去理解、感悟知识的关联性，此处空格处表示

转折，因此选用F选项能与上一句的信息承接。

34．G 由“Read the lines. Then, speak them out loud…Charles Dickens would act out the parts of the characters.”等信息可知，有时在阅读的时候可以手舞足蹈，融入到内容之中，同时又以狄更斯为例来说明我们也可以这样去做，所以选用G选项。

35．B 根据空格前的句子“If you read frequently, you'll likely have an easier time with remembering what you're reading (and what you've read)．”及空格后的句子“As you make reading a regular part of your life…”可知，人们需要定期阅读，因为这能够让记忆变得更加轻松，正所谓“熟能生巧”，所以选用B选项。

63．reading 考查非谓语动词。此处逻辑主语是you，与read构成主动关系，故填现在分词reading。

．their 考查代词。此处根据语意可知，后面的use是名词，故需要形容词性物主代词，填their。

65．learned/learnt 考查非谓语动词。根据语意知，此处是过去分词作后置定语修饰words。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 应用文写作(满分15分)

A vacation with my mother

I had an interesting childhood. It was filled with surprises and amusements, all because of my mother—loving, sweet, yet absent-minded and forgetful. One strange family trip we took when I was eleven tells a lot about her.

My two sets of grandparents lived in Colorado and North Dakota, and my parents decided to spend a few weeks driving to those states and seeing all the sights along the way. As the first day of our trip approached, David,__my eight-year-old brother, and I unwillingly said good-bye to all of

our friends. Who knew if we'd ever see them again? Finally, the moment of our departure arrived, and we loaded suitcases, books, games, camping equipment, and a tent into the car and bravely drove off. We bravely drove off again two hours later after we'd returned home to get the purse and

traveller's checks Mum had forgotten. David and I were always a little nervous when using gas station bathrooms if Mum was driving while Dad slept：“You stand outside the door and play lookout(放哨) while I go, and I'll stand outside the door and play lookout while you go.” I had terrible pictures in my mind: “Honey, where are the kids？” “What？！ Oh, Gosh…I thought they were being awfully quiet.”

On the fourth or fifth night, we had trouble finding a hotel with a vacancy. After driving in vain for some time, Mum suddenly got a great idea: Why didn't we find a house with a likely-looking backyard and ask if we could set up tent there? David and I became nervous. To our great relief, Dad turned down the idea. Mum never could understand our objections(反对). If a strange family showed up on her front doorstep, Mum would have been delighted.

________________________________________________________________________ 【思路点拨】

1. 核心内容解读：

本文主要讲了一个健忘的妈妈的事。

第一段：“我”的童年很有趣，大部分是因为“我”的母亲。 她很友爱、有趣，同时也很迷糊、健忘(absent-minded and forgetful)。

第二段：“我们”准备出游(trip)，然而“我”和“我”的弟弟David都不愿意出发，因为下一次再见到“我们”的朋友们就不知道什么时候了。然而这一天还是到了。“我们”带上了帐篷、野营设备，出发了。但过了两小时后“我们”不得不再次出发，因为妈妈忘记带上钱包等东西。

第三段：途中“我”和弟弟去加油站上厕所是令“我们”胆战心惊的事——妈妈开车，

爸爸在睡觉。弟弟去厕所“我”就得在门口放哨，“我”去厕所弟弟要放哨。“我们”知道妈妈可能会在“我们”没有上车的情况下把车开走。

第四段：“我们”出游的第四和第五个晚上，“我们”找不到有空房的酒店，妈妈提议“我们”到某个人的院子里搭帐篷。“我”和弟弟都很紧张，还好爸爸否决了这个提议。然而妈妈并不明白为什么“我们”会反对，若有其他人敲响“我们”家的门，妈妈一定会非常乐意的。她认为所有人都和她一样友善。终于“我们”找到了一个有空房的酒店。

这次续写可以着重从叙事、心理感受、场景等方面入手。根据所给关键词建立情节与内容支架，根据“协同效应”原理，注意语言协同与内容协同。

叙事： forgetful, nice

心理变化：annoyed, nervous, relieved, happy 场景：messy, normal, great Possible version 1:

The next day we remembered the brand­new tent we had brought with us. Mum insisted that we should make full use of it since we had brought it. David and I looked at Dad,__hoping he could stop her crazy idea. To our great disappointment, he agreed. We spent a whole afternoon seeking a nice__camping place and set up our tent before the night fell. It was the first time that I had thought Mum could be wise as I was admiring our stunning tent. “Oh, I forgot the pillows！” Mum said. What a misconception. Despite the ache of my neck, we had some great nights.

We drove through several states and saw lots of great sights along the way. The bright blue sky, the limitless green grass, the group of sheep, the setting sun and the countless stars in the curtain of nights kept me spellbound. Not only did we see the picturesque scenery, we also managed to consider Mum's scandals as a kind of fun. I really love my Mum.

To our relief, we arrived at grandparents' place and went back to our home with all of four people. It was so fortunate to see my friends again.

Possible version 2:

The next day we remembered the brand­new tent we had brought with us. We decided to camp along the river throughout the town. The views there were surpassingly beautiful—the warm sunshine, the fresh air, the clean water. We sat on the grass, hooked by the splendid nature. However, when Dad was about to put up our tent, it suddenly hit him that Mum again, had left it completely, as well as the camping equipment in the hotel. Speechlessly, Dad had to go back to fetch them to continue our camping.

We drove through several states and saw lots of great sights along the way. Every time we got to a new place, Mum would cheer up like a child. Calling out David and I, she got off the car, laughed and danced around. She held our hands in her hands, leading us around the big city, the

small town and the nice nature. When we came back to the hotel after the tiring but excellent visit, she would hug us and kiss us on our faces. How sweet she was! Absent-minded and forgetful as she was, she never forgot to express her love to us.

Possible version 3: The next day we remembered the brand­new tent we had brought with us. We were happy to see it still packed, and hoped it would be packed forever. However, things came to its turning point. Mum lost Dad in the gas station when we were sleeping. What was worse, as the dark approached, we met the same trouble again. Brave as Mum was, she decided to camp near the road waiting for Dad. The wind cried wildly like a monster. Tears took control of us. Mum embraced us tightly singing a smooth song, which really released us. We didn't met Dad in the last few days, but we felt comfortable staying with Mum.

We drove through several states and saw lots of great sights along the way. The tent became a closer friend then. Every time we camped, Mum would read a book or sing a soft song. The warmth of her arm never faded away in my memory. Though she was forgetful,__laughter accompanied us along the way. We finally met poor Dad in our destination. This trip made me realize that love may have many ways, but it can always warm people in the dark.

Hello, everyone. I'm very happy to be invited to this programme today. I'd like to share with you my impression of Paris. Actually, there are some interesting things to see in every corner of Paris, the old buildings, neighbourhoods and the historical monuments. The weather's been great too, cool and dry. Some aspects of life here are different from those in the United States. The most obvious thing is that there is much more activity in the streets than in the typical US cities. People get together in the open markets, cafés, parks and squares. Then, of course there is the food. Food seems to be more important here. It's beautifully shown in windows and markets. Everything is fresher and better tasting than at home. I've gained five pounds since I arrived. There are a few things that bother me, though.I'm still having a hard time with the language. People speak very fast and it's hard to get them to repeat things. People in general are less warmer here and it's hard to make friends. I guess that can be true in any big city in a new country. But the French do seem to be less friendly than the people back home.
