第Ⅰ卷
第二部分： 阅读理解 （共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
In the state of Maryland, a girl was born into slavery (奴隶制) in 1820. Her parents named her Araminta Harriet Ross. She was to become Harriet Tubman. She was one of about one million Africans in slavery in the United States.
From the age of five, Harriet Tubman's owners made her work very hard. First, she cared for the child of the farm owner. Then, she did hard work on large farms.
Although she could not read or write, Tubman learned from her parents to do what was right. Through her whole life, Tubman put herself in danger to help other people.
One such act changed her life when she was 13 years old. Because she helped another slave, her owner threw a piece of metal at her and it hit her on the head. She was badly hurt. For the rest of her life, Tubman's head wound caused problems for her.
When she was about 25 years old, Harriet married a free black man named John Tubman. But she was still a slave. Her life was so difficult that she decided to escape (逃走). She travelled for 145 kilometres, and finally crossed into the North. Tubman became a free woman.
But Tubman could not leave her family enslaved in the South. So she travelled back to help them escape as well. Then, she made many trips and guided about 300 slaves to freedom. Tubman also fought bravely in the American Civil War and in 1865 slavery was not allowed in the US.
Harriet Tubman died in 1913. Her memory brings hope to many people — especially to those who fight for justice (正义). She encouraged people to never give up.
“If you want a taste of freedom, keep going.”
21. What do we know about Harriet Tubman?
A. She was born a slave.
B. She was born in Africa.
C. She was taken to the US by a slave trader.
D. She was sold to a farm owner when she was born.
22. When she was 13 years old, Tubman _____.
A. planned to run away
B. helped a slave escape
C. fought bravely against her owner
D. was seriously wounded in her head
23. We can infer from the text that Tubman was _____.
A. honest and friendly B. strong and helpful
C. lucky and careful D. clever and polite
24. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Africans' Fight for Freedom
B. Harriet Tubman: From Slave to Hero
C. The History of Slavery in the United States
D. The American Civil War: The North Against the South
B
One of the most unusual flowering plants in the world, the Snowdonia hawkweed (斯诺登水兰), grows only in Snowdonia National Park in northern Wales. The area is rocky and mountainous, and the air is cool and wet. The Snowdonia hawkweed prefers this area. In fact, it grows nowhere else in the world. It is even picky about where it grows in the park.
The Snowdonia hawkweed is about two inches tall with bright yellow flowers. It may not be the most beautiful plant in the world, but it is a favorite snack of sheep.
In 1953, the Snowdonia hawkweed disappeared. People feared that the plant was gone forever. They believed that the sheep there had eaten the last few plants. So, the people who ran the park took the sheep away from the area, hoping that the hawkweed might return. In 2002, almost 50 years after it was thought to be extinct, a group of plant scientists found the yellow flowers in the park — exactly where it had last been seen, and where it had been searched for without success. The hawkweed had returned!
To try to prevent the plant from disappearing again, scientists collected seeds (种子) from the plant. Since 2002, the unusual plant has continued to appear in the park.
25. The Snowdonia hawkweed _____.
A. is the most beautiful plant in the world
B. grows everywhere in northern Wales
C. produces the most unusual flowers
D. is an extremely unusual plant
26. What happened to the Snowdonia hawkweed in 1953 _____.
A. worried a lot of people
B. proved nature is powerful
C. made the park less attractive
D. caused a rise in the number of sheep
27. The underlined word “extinct” in Paragraph 3 probably means _____.
A. growing B. disappearing
C. unusual D. dangerous
C
A new law in Arizona requires high school students to pass the United States' citizenship (公民身份) test. There're 100 questions on US history and government in the test.
The Joe Foss Institute helped create the law. They want to pass a law in each of the 50 states to require high school students to pass the test.
A 2010 national test showed only about 25 percent of students in their final year of high school had a good understanding of American government. Thirty-six percent did not have even a basic understanding.
“That's a shame, and it's not only a shame,” said John Hale, the Associate Director of the Center for Civic (公民的) Education in California. Mr. Hale thinks it is dangerous when citizens do not know or care about how their government works. He says students do not only need to learn facts about government. They should also learn how to take part in their communities. “Requiring high school students to take the test might be a way to improve students' civic behavior,” he says.
But some wonder if a test young people take in high school will make adults more active in their communities.
Sam Stone writes reports for the Joe Foss Institute. He says research shows that civic education does result in more involved (参与的) adults. He noted a 2012 survey that found the more young people studied civics in high school, the more likely they were to get actively involved in their communities.
In another state, Virginia, many people are against the test. Meg Gruber is the President of the Virginia Education Association. She says students already take classes in civics and US history. And, she says, schools should not have to pay more for the test.
Sam Stone agrees. He says his organization is paying for an online testing website. Schools can use the website to give the test for free.
28. The US citizenship test _____.
A. is a required test all over America
B. was created by the Joe Foss Institute
C. helps students understand American government
D. has been included in American law for five years
29. What may John Hale agree with?
A. How the US government works should not be open to the public.
B. It's a shame that the US government is unpopular with students.
C. Community activities outweigh facts about the US government.
D. The US citizenship test will be good for students and society.
30. The result of the 2012 survey _____.
A. was different from Sam Stone's findings
B. showed civics helped students become more active citizens
C. led more young people to study civics
D. showed students were as interested as adults in their government
31. What did Meg Gruber think of the citizenship test?
A. Unimportant. B. Unpleasant.
C. Acceptable. D. Fair.
D

第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
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。
Long, long ago people couldn't write and they had no books. But they had stories. People learned the stories by heart and taught new ones to one another. Sometimes it was hard to remember them all. 36
The ancient Egyptians wrote their stories on something made from papyrus (纸莎草) plants. People in other places learned to use papyrus from the Egyptians. 37 So parchment (羊皮纸), made from goatskin, later took its place.
In ancient China books looked a little different. People there used ink to write on bamboo or silk. And then they invented paper. Made of trees, paper was easier and cheaper to make than papyrus or parchment. 38 Papermaking later spread to the West, but there was a big problem with these early books. Every single one had to be copied and written by hand.
39 They carved (雕刻) a page of words into a piece of wood or stone. They could then print the page by spreading ink on the wood or stone and putting it against paper. But it wasn't until a German printer invented movable, metal letters that books became fast and easy to make. The letters could be used to print copy after copy, and the letters put together again and again to print different pages of words.
40 Once a luxury (奢侈品) only the rich could buy, they soon became a treasure everyone could enjoy.
A. But papyrus grew mainly in Egypt.
B. It took years to finish making just one book.
C. Finally books could be printed by the thousands.
D. Things grew a little easier when writing was invented.
E. Its surface was smoother and better for writing on too.
F. Books in the West didn't change for a long time after that.
G. The Chinese were the first to think of a way to speed things up a little.

部分解析
阅读理解：
A篇 (社会)
本文是记叙文。文章主要介绍了美国杰出的黑人废奴主义运动家哈莉特·塔布曼。
21. A。细节理解题。根据第一段中的a girl was born into slavery可知，Harriet Tubman出生于奴隶家庭，也就意味着她一出生就是奴隶。
22. D。细节理解题。根据第四段中的when she was 13 years old和her owner threw a piece of metal at her and it hit her on the head. She was badly hurt可知，Tubman在13岁的时候，头部受到重创。
23. B。推理判断题。根据文中对Tubman事迹的描述可知，作为奴隶的她受到非人的折磨，但她却凭借自己顽强的意志成功摆脱奴隶的身份，并且多次帮助其他奴隶获取自由。由此可知，B项准确概括了Tubman的品质特点。
24. B。标题归纳题。Harriet Tubman出身奴隶，但她渴望自由，最终逃到美国北方，获取新生。不仅如此，她还帮助无数黑奴奔向自由，成为了一名英雄。故B项作标题贴切。
B篇 (自然)
本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了一种罕见的植物——斯诺登水兰。
25. D。细节理解题。根据第一段中的One of the most unusual flowering plants in the world，it grows nowhere else in the world以及It is even picky about where it grows in the park不难看出，斯诺登水兰对生长环境很挑剔，只在斯诺登国家公园的某个地方生长，是一种异常罕见的植物。
26. A。推理判断题。根据第三段中的People feared that the plant was gone forever和the people who ran the park took the sheep away from the area, hoping that the hawkweed might return可知，当斯诺登水兰在1953年凭空消失后，人们对此很担心。
27. B。词义猜测题。根据第三段中的the Snowdonia hawkweed disappeared. People feared that the plant was gone forever可知，人们曾一度以为斯诺登水兰灭绝了。故划线词意为“消失了的，灭绝的”。
C篇 (学校生活)
本文是议论文。文章讨论了美国高中生是否需要参加美国公民测试。
28. C。细节理解题。根据第一段中的There're 100 questions on US history and government in the test以及下文的介绍可知，美国的公民测试旨在帮助学生更好地了解美国政府。
29. D。推理判断题。根据第四段中John Hale说的Requiring high school students to take the test might be a way to improve students' civic behavior可知，John Hale认为美国公民测试有助于提高学生的公民行为，那么自然而然也会使整个社会受益。
30. B。推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中的a 2012 survey ... the more young people studied civics in high school, the more likely they were to get actively involved in their communities可知，公民课有助于学生成为更积极、更活跃的公民。
31. B。推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的Meg Gruber ... schools should not have to pay more for the test可知，Meg Gruber认为学校已经有公民课和历史课，再额外增加这项公民测试会增加学校的财政负担。因此，她对这项公民测试感到不满。
D篇 (节假日活动)
本文是应用文。文章是一则购物广告。
32. A。细节理解题。根据第一段中的our unique and unforgettable gift suggestions are a big part of why people love us可知，这个网站受到人们喜爱的主要原因是其独特的礼物点子。
33. C。细节理解题。根据Christmas Gifts for Parents部分的Finding them the perfect Christmas gift will be easy this year, with all our top picks in one place可知，今年网站将一些受欢迎的送给父母的圣诞礼物都放到了一起便于人们选择。
34. A。细节理解题。根据Holiday Gift Baskets小标题的名称以及该部分的介绍可知，在这个礼品区有很多礼品篮；根据The Secret Santa Exchange部分的there's always the gift basket可知，这个礼品区也有礼品篮。由此可知A项正确。
35. B。推理判断题。根据Ideas for Teens部分的Teens can be a challenge和even though they're a special group that are hard to deal with可知，给青少年选择合适的礼物最为困难。而其他三个部分的Finding them the perfect Christmas gift will be easy，you can easily find everything以及are sure to please everyone in the office措辞都表示这三个部分的礼品选择很简单。
七选五：
话题：历史
本文是说明文。文章介绍了书的印刷史。
36. D。根据该空前的it was hard to remember them all和下一段首句中的The ancient Egyptians wrote their stories可知，在有了文字以后，事情变得容易些了。
37. A。根据该空前的People in other places learned to use papyrus from the Egyptians和该空后的So parchment, made from goatskin, later took its place可知，由于纸莎草这种植物只在埃及生长，因此别的地方的人用羊皮纸代替纸莎草纸。
38. E。该空前的Made of trees, paper was easier and cheaper to make than papyrus or parchment是用树皮做的纸张的优点，因此E项符合语境。E项中的smoother and better和文中的easier and cheaper to make相呼应。
39. G。上一段末句谈到每本书都需要用手抄写，该空后谈到可以对书本进行单页复制。这个比较说明有人想到加快复制书本的过程，故G项符合语境。
40. C。根据上一段末句中的the letters put together again and again to print different pages of words可知，由于德国人发明了可移动的金属字模，因此现在可以大批量地复制书本。
完形填空：
话题：个人情感
本文是记叙文。在成长过程中我们或许会害怕尝试新事物，或许会害怕失败，然而，这些都是成长的必经阶段。在此过程中，我们需要以积极向上的态度来面对这一切。

46. A。作者一开始担心自己会想家，担心会被别人笑话，因此听到别人说想家时，她开始“放心（relax）”了。
47. C。根据上文中的I'll look stupid at winter sports可知，由于作者不擅长冬季体育运动，因此她“小心翼翼地（carefully）”滑雪。
48. B。根据该空前的I still hit a piece of ice可知，作者撞到一块冰上，“摔倒了（fell down）”。
49. A。根据上一句Behind me, somebody started laughing可知，有人在作者身后发出笑声，因此作者“朝身后看去（looked back）”，想知道究竟是谁在笑。
50. D。根据该空后的I saw a girl in the same awkward position I was in可知，作者原本以为有人在笑她，然而令她“诧异（surprise）”的是，有一个女孩也摔倒了。
51. C。I thought I'd be bad at this与I'm worse than I expected之间为转折关系，故填but。
52. B。女孩所说的话让作者也“突然（Suddenly）”笑了起来。

67. completed。考查动词-ed形式作定语的用法。complete与pages之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，且complete表示的动作已经完成，故填completed。
68. the。考查定冠词。World Wide Web表示宇宙间独一无二的事物，故其前用定冠词the。
69. that。考查关系词。设空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词thing，且thing前有last修饰，故填that。
70. frequently。考查副词。设空处修饰动词change，故填副词frequently。
Module 6 The Internet and Telecommunications单元测试题
第Ⅰ卷
第二部分： 阅读理解 （共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
In the state of Maryland, a girl was born into slavery (奴隶制) in 1820. Her parents named her Araminta Harriet Ross. She was to become Harriet Tubman. She was one of about one million Africans in slavery in the United States.
From the age of five, Harriet Tubman's owners made her work very hard. First, she cared for the child of the farm owner. Then, she did hard work on large farms.
Although she could not read or write, Tubman learned from her parents to do what was right. Through her whole life, Tubman put herself in danger to help other people.
One such act changed her life when she was 13 years old. Because she helped another slave, her owner threw a piece of metal at her and it hit her on the head. She was badly hurt. For the rest of her life, Tubman's head wound caused problems for her.
When she was about 25 years old, Harriet married a free black man named John Tubman. But she was still a slave. Her life was so difficult that she decided to escape (逃走). She travelled for 145 kilometres, and finally crossed into the North. Tubman became a free woman.
But Tubman could not leave her family enslaved in the South. So she travelled back to help them escape as well. Then, she made many trips and guided about 300 slaves to freedom. Tubman also fought bravely in the American Civil War and in 1865 slavery was not allowed in the US.
Harriet Tubman died in 1913. Her memory brings hope to many people — especially to those who fight for justice (正义). She encouraged people to never give up.
“If you want a taste of freedom, keep going.”

One of the most unusual flowering plants in the world, the Snowdonia hawkweed (斯诺登水兰), grows only in Snowdonia National Park in northern Wales. The area is rocky and mountainous, and the air is cool and wet. The Snowdonia hawkweed prefers this area. In fact, it grows nowhere else in the world. It is even picky about where it grows in the park.
The Snowdonia hawkweed is about two inches tall with bright yellow flowers. It may not be the most beautiful plant in the world, but it is a favorite snack of sheep.
In 1953, the Snowdonia hawkweed disappeared. People feared that the plant was gone forever. They believed that the sheep there had eaten the last few plants. So, the people who ran the park took the sheep away from the area, hoping that the hawkweed might return. In 2002, almost 50 years after it was thought to be extinct, a group of plant scientists found the yellow flowers in the park — exactly where it had last been seen, and where it had been searched for without success. The hawkweed had returned!
To try to prevent the plant from disappearing again, scientists collected seeds (种子) from the plant. Since 2002, the unusual plant has continued to appear in the park.
25. The Snowdonia hawkweed _____.
A. is the most beautiful plant in the world
B. grows everywhere in northern Wales
C. produces the most unusual flowers
D. is an extremely unusual plant
26. What happened to the Snowdonia hawkweed in 1953 _____.
A. worried a lot of people
B. proved nature is powerful
C. made the park less attractive
D. caused a rise in the number of sheep
27. The underlined word “extinct” in Paragraph 3 probably means _____.

A new law in Arizona requires high school students to pass the United States' citizenship (公民身份) test. There're 100 questions on US history and government in the test.
The Joe Foss Institute helped create the law. They want to pass a law in each of the 50 states to require high school students to pass the test.
A 2010 national test showed only about 25 percent of students in their final year of high school had a good understanding of American government. Thirty-six percent did not have even a basic understanding.
“That's a shame, and it's not only a shame,” said John Hale, the Associate Director of the Center for Civic (公民的) Education in California. Mr. Hale thinks it is dangerous when citizens do not know or care about how their government works. He says students do not only need to learn facts about government. They should also learn how to take part in their communities. “Requiring high school students to take the test might be a way to improve students' civic behavior,” he says.
But some wonder if a test young people take in high school will make adults more active in their communities.
Sam Stone writes reports for the Joe Foss Institute. He says research shows that civic education does result in more involved (参与的) adults. He noted a 2012 survey that found the more young people studied civics in high school, the more likely they were to get actively involved in their communities.
In another state, Virginia, many people are against the test. Meg Gruber is the President of the Virginia Education Association. She says students already take classes in civics and US history. And, she says, schools should not have to pay more for the test.
Sam Stone agrees. He says his organization is paying for an online testing website. Schools can use the website to give the test for free.
28. The US citizenship test _____.
A. is a required test all over America
B. was created by the Joe Foss Institute
C. helps students understand American government
D. has been included in American law for five years
29. What may John Hale agree with?
A. How the US government works should not be open to the public.
B. It's a shame that the US government is unpopular with students.
C. Community activities outweigh facts about the US government.
D. The US citizenship test will be good for students and society.
30. The result of the 2012 survey _____.
A. was different from Sam Stone's findings
B. showed civics helped students become more active citizens
C. led more young people to study civics
D. showed students were as interested as adults in their government
31. What did Meg Gruber think of the citizenship test?
A. Unimportant. B. Unpleasant.
C. Acceptable. D. Fair.
D

Long, long ago people couldn't write and they had no books. But they had stories. People learned the stories by heart and taught new ones to one another. Sometimes it was hard to remember them all. 36
The ancient Egyptians wrote their stories on something made from papyrus (纸莎草) plants. People in other places learned to use papyrus from the Egyptians. 37 So parchment (羊皮纸), made from goatskin, later took its place.
In ancient China books looked a little different. People there used ink to write on bamboo or silk. And then they invented paper. Made of trees, paper was easier and cheaper to make than papyrus or parchment. 38 Papermaking later spread to the West, but there was a big problem with these early books. Every single one had to be copied and written by hand.
39 They carved (雕刻) a page of words into a piece of wood or stone. They could then print the page by spreading ink on the wood or stone and putting it against paper. But it wasn't until a German printer invented movable, metal letters that books became fast and easy to make. The letters could be used to print copy after copy, and the letters put together again and again to print different pages of words.
40 Once a luxury (奢侈品) only the rich could buy, they soon became a treasure everyone could enjoy.
A. But papyrus grew mainly in Egypt.
B. It took years to finish making just one book.
C. Finally books could be printed by the thousands.
D. Things grew a little easier when writing was invented.
E. Its surface was smoother and better for writing on too.
F. Books in the West didn't change for a long time after that.
G. The Chinese were the first to think of a way to speed things up a little.

部分解析
阅读理解：
A篇 (社会)
本文是记叙文。文章主要介绍了美国杰出的黑人废奴主义运动家哈莉特·塔布曼。
21. A。细节理解题。根据第一段中的a girl was born into slavery可知，Harriet Tubman出生于奴隶家庭，也就意味着她一出生就是奴隶。
22. D。细节理解题。根据第四段中的when she was 13 years old和her owner threw a piece of metal at her and it hit her on the head. She was badly hurt可知，Tubman在13岁的时候，头部受到重创。
23. B。推理判断题。根据文中对Tubman事迹的描述可知，作为奴隶的她受到非人的折磨，但她却凭借自己顽强的意志成功摆脱奴隶的身份，并且多次帮助其他奴隶获取自由。由此可知，B项准确概括了Tubman的品质特点。
24. B。标题归纳题。Harriet Tubman出身奴隶，但她渴望自由，最终逃到美国北方，获取新生。不仅如此，她还帮助无数黑奴奔向自由，成为了一名英雄。故B项作标题贴切。
B篇 (自然)
本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了一种罕见的植物——斯诺登水兰。
25. D。细节理解题。根据第一段中的One of the most unusual flowering plants in the world，it grows nowhere else in the world以及It is even picky about where it grows in the park不难看出，斯诺登水兰对生长环境很挑剔，只在斯诺登国家公园的某个地方生长，是一种异常罕见的植物。
26. A。推理判断题。根据第三段中的People feared that the plant was gone forever和the people who ran the park took the sheep away from the area, hoping that the hawkweed might return可知，当斯诺登水兰在1953年凭空消失后，人们对此很担心。
27. B。词义猜测题。根据第三段中的the Snowdonia hawkweed disappeared. People feared that the plant was gone forever可知，人们曾一度以为斯诺登水兰灭绝了。故划线词意为“消失了的，灭绝的”。
C篇 (学校生活)
本文是议论文。文章讨论了美国高中生是否需要参加美国公民测试。
28. C。细节理解题。根据第一段中的There're 100 questions on US history and government in the test以及下文的介绍可知，美国的公民测试旨在帮助学生更好地了解美国政府。
29. D。推理判断题。根据第四段中John Hale说的Requiring high school students to take the test might be a way to improve students' civic behavior可知，John Hale认为美国公民测试有助于提高学生的公民行为，那么自然而然也会使整个社会受益。
30. B。推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中的a 2012 survey ... the more young people studied civics in high school, the more likely they were to get actively involved in their communities可知，公民课有助于学生成为更积极、更活跃的公民。
31. B。推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的Meg Gruber ... schools should not have to pay more for the test可知，Meg Gruber认为学校已经有公民课和历史课，再额外增加这项公民测试会增加学校的财政负担。因此，她对这项公民测试感到不满。
D篇 (节假日活动)
本文是应用文。文章是一则购物广告。
32. A。细节理解题。根据第一段中的our unique and unforgettable gift suggestions are a big part of why people love us可知，这个网站受到人们喜爱的主要原因是其独特的礼物点子。
33. C。细节理解题。根据Christmas Gifts for Parents部分的Finding them the perfect Christmas gift will be easy this year, with all our top picks in one place可知，今年网站将一些受欢迎的送给父母的圣诞礼物都放到了一起便于人们选择。
34. A。细节理解题。根据Holiday Gift Baskets小标题的名称以及该部分的介绍可知，在这个礼品区有很多礼品篮；根据The Secret Santa Exchange部分的there's always the gift basket可知，这个礼品区也有礼品篮。由此可知A项正确。
35. B。推理判断题。根据Ideas for Teens部分的Teens can be a challenge和even though they're a special group that are hard to deal with可知，给青少年选择合适的礼物最为困难。而其他三个部分的Finding them the perfect Christmas gift will be easy，you can easily find everything以及are sure to please everyone in the office措辞都表示这三个部分的礼品选择很简单。
七选五：
话题：历史
本文是说明文。文章介绍了书的印刷史。
36. D。根据该空前的it was hard to remember them all和下一段首句中的The ancient Egyptians wrote their stories可知，在有了文字以后，事情变得容易些了。
37. A。根据该空前的People in other places learned to use papyrus from the Egyptians和该空后的So parchment, made from goatskin, later took its place可知，由于纸莎草这种植物只在埃及生长，因此别的地方的人用羊皮纸代替纸莎草纸。
38. E。该空前的Made of trees, paper was easier and cheaper to make than papyrus or parchment是用树皮做的纸张的优点，因此E项符合语境。E项中的smoother and better和文中的easier and cheaper to make相呼应。
39. G。上一段末句谈到每本书都需要用手抄写，该空后谈到可以对书本进行单页复制。这个比较说明有人想到加快复制书本的过程，故G项符合语境。
40. C。根据上一段末句中的the letters put together again and again to print different pages of words可知，由于德国人发明了可移动的金属字模，因此现在可以大批量地复制书本。
完形填空：
