Dear Mr. Smith,
I’d like to bring to your attention the events of the past few weeks concerning a washing machine that I bought on September 14th from your store.
The machine was delivered and installed(安装)several days later, but since then it has failed to work. A label on the back of the machine listed a phone number to call in case of problems. I called and spoke to a technician, who gave me step-by-step instructions on how to turn on the machine. But the whole process was a waste of time. The machine still wouldn’t work. Several days later, another technician actually came to my home to try to figure out what was wrong. I hoped it could run well by the time he left, but he could not get the machine to work, either. He told me I had two options: either to have the machine repaired or replace it with a new one. Since this machine was brand new and had never worked, I felt I deserved a new one.
I called your store and was told that the normal procedure was to write a letter to the department manager to explain the problem. I did this several weeks ago, but my letter appears to have been ignored.
Mr. Smith, by the time you get this letter, an out-of-order washing machine will have been sitting in my house for nearly six weeks. This whole thing has been a pain for me and the machine needs to be replaced immediately. If it is not, my lawyer will be getting in touch with you. Please consider this a final warning.
Sincerely,
Joseph Wilson
1. What was the problem with the washing machine?
A. It wouldn’t start
B. It wasn’t delivered on time.
C. It was installed incorrectly.
D. It had a complex instruction book.
2. How did the second worker deal with the author’s problem?
A. By having the machine replaced.
B. By informing the department manager of the problem.
C. By instructing her how to use the machine over the phone.
D. By checking out the machine on site and offering some advice.
3. Why did the author write the letter?
A. To ask for technical instructions.
B. To get a new washing machine.
C. To explain the case to her lawyer.
D. To complain about the technicians.
【答案】1. A 2. D 3. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇信件。文章主要讲述了Joseph Wilson写信投诉自己购买了新洗衣机，而洗衣机却无法运作，经过几周的处理，问题并没有得到解决。

By the time she turned 18, Liz had attended twelve schools in as many years. She had lived in shelters and in parks but never in a permanent residence for more than a few months. She had been laughed at by students at a dozen schools who considered her “different”.
Homeless since early childhood, Liz struggled all her life to hide her circumstances from teachers and fellow students. However, academics proved to be a way for her to find confidence in herself again. For instance, at the age of 9, she placed in the 99th percentile on a state exam, and her teacher Oprah told her she was “gifted”. From that moment forward, Liz decided to do whatever it took to keep herself in that category. “I was so proud of being smart and I never wanted people to say, ‘You got the easy way out because you’re homeless, ‘” she said“ I never saw it as an excuse. ”
By the second year of high school, she realized that she could not succeed in getting the education she dreamed of without getting help to go beyond what her current school could offer. She talked to teachers who helped her apply for summer community college classes and scholarships. And in 11th grade, when she enrolled at Jefferson High School, she decided to complete the rest of her school career there—a decision that meant taking a bus each morning at 4 a. m. and not getting home until 11 p.m.
Her perseverance and hard work paid off, however. When she poured the story of her life into her Harvard University college application, she was accepted.
Once Liz felt ready to tell her story, it won her notice not only from college admissions boards but also from the news media. Now as a successful student at Harvard, Liz continues to use the lessons of her extraordinary life to help and inspire other students.
4. What made Liz different in the eyes of her classmates according to paragraph 1?
A Her talent. B. Her hard work.
C. Her homelessness. D. Her school performance.
5. How did Liz rebuild her confidence?
A. By settling in a permanent home. B. By getting help from her teachers.
C. By socializing with other students. D. By finding her passion for studying.
6. What can we learn about Liz?
A. She quit school to support her family.
B. She was criticized by Oprah on her show.
C. She shares her stories to encourage others.
D. She has been declined by Jefferson High School.
7. Which of the following best describes Liz?
A. Humorous. B. Strict. C. Reliable. D. Determined.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了自幼无家可归的Liz辗转多所学校，饱受同学的嘲笑和轻视，最终在个人的努力和老师的帮助下成功考入哈佛大学的故事。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“She had lived in shelters and in parks but never in a permanent residence for more than a few months. She had been laughed at by students at a dozen schools who considered her "different".(她住在收容所和公园里，但从来没有在一个固定住所住过几个月。她曾被十几所学校的学生嘲笑，因为他们认为她“与众不同”。)”可知，她的无家可归使莉兹在同学眼中与众不同。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“However, academics proved to be a way for her to find confidence in herself again. (学习成绩证明是她重新找回自信的一种方式）”可知，莉兹通过找到对学习的热情来重拾信心。故选D。

【7题详解】

For instance, at the age of 9, she placed in the 99th percentile on a state exam, and her teacher Oprah told her she was "gifted".

(然而，学习证明是她重新找回自信的一种方式。例如，9岁时，她在一次国家考试中名列第99位，她的老师奥普拉说她“很有天赋”。从那一刻起，莉兹决定不惜一切代价让自己成为这一类人。)”和文章第三段“And in 11th grade, when she enrolled at Jefferson High School, she decided to complete the rest of her school career there—a decision that meant taking a bus each morning at 4 a.m. and not getting home until 11 p.m.(11年级时，当她进入杰斐逊高中(Jefferson High School)就读时，她决定在那里完成她余下的学校生涯——这个决定意味着每天早上4点坐公交车，直到晚上11点才回家。)”以及文章第四段“Her perseverance and hard work paid off, however. (然而，她的毅力和努力得到了回报。)”可知，Liz是有决心的。故选D。
C
It’s just past 7 a. m. on a February morning in Maya Bay, several weeks after authorities reopened what is one of Thailand’s most popular tourist attractions to the world for the first time since June 2018 following a massive restoration program.
In the hours to follow, a slow but steady flow of tourists becomes in great numbers as dozens of tourists make their way to the white-sand beach, phones at the ready as they take photos. Swimming is not allowed, though visitors can take a few steps in. It’s disappointing, but a huge improvement over what visitors once experienced here.
Maya Bay is located in a Thailand’s national park. The destination was made famous by the 2000 film The Beach, starring Leonardo DiCaprio. As the film’s popularity grew, so did tourists’ desire to visit the location where much of it was shot —Maya Bay.
“Around 40 years ago, Maya Bay was already a tourism destination, but mainly for Thai tourists because you didn’t have speedboats at that time,” says Thon, a marine biologist and professor who requested authorities to close the bay four years ago. Over the years, the number of tourists rose from less than 1, 000 to as many as 7, 000 or 8, 000 visitors a day at its peak. On average, around 5, 000 people entered the bay each day.
In 2018, the Thai government closed the bay and began to restore the damaged ecosystem. Since then, Thon and a team of fellow marine experts and volunteers have replanted over 30, 000 pieces of coral, much of it grown off the coast of a nearby island. Meanwhile, the wildlife also returned and has been growing. “Only three months after we closed the bay, the blacktip sharks came back and gave birth… so there are a lot of things happening in Maya Bay.”
8. What do the first two paragraphs mainly tell us about Maya Bay?
A. Its reopening. B. Its rebuilding.
C. Its business hours. D. Its reduced tourists.
9. What led to the growing popularity of Maya Bay?
A. A film shot there.
B. The easier access than before.
C. The better tourism equipment.
D. Peopled growing desire to travel.
10. What do the numbers in paragraph 4 try to show?
A. The profit from tourism.
B. The sharp increase in tourists.
C. The long history of Maya Bay.
D. The reason for the film’s popularity.
11. What can we infer about the protection efforts for Maya Bay?
A. It was a little late.
B. It has been effective.
C. It remains to be seen whether it’s useful.
D. It has no support from the government.
【答案】8. A 9. A 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了2月的一个早晨，刚过7点，玛雅湾(Maya Bay)，就在几周前，当局在进行了大规模的修复计划后，自2018年6月以来首次向世界开放了泰国最受欢迎的旅游景点之一。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“It’s just past 7 a. m. on a February morning in Maya Bay, several weeks after authorities reopened what is one of Thailand’s most popular tourist attractions to the world for the first time since June 2018 following a massive restoration program.(2月的一个早晨，刚过7点，玛雅湾(Maya Bay)，就在几周前，当局在进行了大规模的修复计划后，自2018年6月以来首次向世界开放了泰国最受欢迎的旅游景点之一。)”和文章第二段“In the hours to follow, a slow but steady flow of tourists becomes in great numbers as dozens of tourists make their way to the white-sand beach, phones at the ready as they take photos.(在接下来的几个小时里，随着数十名游客前往白色沙滩，准备好手机拍照，缓慢但稳定的游客流变得非常多。)”可知，文章前两段主要讲述了玛雅湾的重新开放。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The destination was made famous by the 2000 film The Beach, starring Leonardo DiCaprio.(2000年，莱昂纳多·迪卡普里奥主演的电影《海滩》让这个地方名声大噪。)”可知，在那里拍摄的一部电影使玛雅湾越来越受欢迎。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Over the years, the number of tourists rose from less than 1, 000 to as many as 7, 000 or 8, 000 visitors a day at its peak. On average, around 5, 000 people entered the bay each day.(多年来，游客人数从不到1000人增加到最高峰时每天多达7000或8000人。平均每天约有5000人进入海湾。)”可推知，第四段的数字展示了游客的急剧增加。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Since then, Thon and a team of fellow marine experts and volunteers have replanted over 30, 000 pieces of coral, much of it grown off the coast of a nearby island. Meanwhile, the wildlife also returned and has been growing. “Only three months after we closed the bay, the blacktip sharks came back and gave birth… so there are a lot of things happening in Maya Bay.”(从那时起，Thon和一个由海洋专家和志愿者组成的团队重新种植了3万多块珊瑚，其中大部分生长在附近一个岛屿的海岸附近。与此同时，野生动物也回来了，并且一直在增长。“就在我们关闭海湾三个月后，黑鳍鲨又回来产仔了……所以玛雅湾发生了很多事情。”)”可推知，对玛雅湾的保护所作出的努力是有效的。故选B。
D
Many famous singers have long sung about the power of a smile — how it picks you up, changes your mind and generally makes you feel better. But is it all smoke and mirrors, or is there a scientific support for this?
Research from the University of South Australia proves that the act of smiling can make your mind be more positive, simply by moving your facial muscles. The study, published in Experimental Psychology, looked at the influence of a smile on perception (感知) of facial and body expressions. In the study, a smile was created by volunteers holding a pen between their teeth, forcing their facial muscles to make the movement of a smile. The research found that facial muscular activity changes the recognition of not only facial expressions but also body expressions, with both producing more positive feelings.
Lead researcher Dr. Fernando Marmolejo-Ramos says the findings are important for spiritual health. “When your muscles say you’re happy, you’re more likely to see the world around you in a positive way,” he says. “In our research we found that when you forcefully practiced smiling, the part of the brain controlling feelings became active, which encouraged a more positive state. If we can make the brain view stimuli (刺激) as ‘happy’, then we can possibly use this way to help improve spiritual health.”
The study was done in the same way as an old smile experiment by examining how people understood a group of facial expressions using the pen-in-teeth method; however, it also used special videos(from sad walking videos to happy walking videos)as the stimuli. Dr. Marmolejo-Ramos says there is a strong connection between action and perception. “The ‘fake (假装) it until you make it’ method could be more useful than we expect,” he says.
12. What is the function of the first paragraph?
A. To tell us the benefits of a smile.
B. To show us some famous singers.
C. To introduce the topic of the text.
D. To inform us of a finding of a study.
13. What were the volunteers asked to do in the study?
A. Laugh aloud from the heart.
B. Just perform the act of smiling.
C. Respond to different feelings.
D. Think of happy things in the past.
14. What does Dr. Marmolejo-Ramos mean by saying the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
A. We should practice smiling a lot.
B. Practicing smiling is quite normal.
C. Pretending to smile actually works.
D. Forced smiles work better than real ones.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. How to feel positive
B. How to force a smile
C. Forced smiles can hide unhappy feelings
D. Forced smiles can produce positive feelings
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. D

【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Many famous singers have long sung about the power of a smile—how it picks you up, changes your mind and generally makes you feel better. But is it all smoke and mirrors, or is there a scientific support for this?(许多著名的歌手一直在歌唱微笑的力量——它如何让你振作起来，改变你的想法，通常让你感觉更好。但这一切都是障眼法，还是有科学依据呢？)”和文章第二段“Research from the University of South Australia proves that the act of smiling can make your mind be more positive, simply by moving your facial muscles.(南澳大利亚大学的研究证明，微笑的行为可以使你的思想更积极，只需通过移动你的面部肌肉。)”可推知，第一段的作用是为了介绍文章的主题。故选C。

【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章倒数第二段““In our research we found that when you forcefully practiced smiling, the part of the brain controlling feelings became active, which encouraged a more positive state.
