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,并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。
A
I am an active playgoer and play-reader,and perhaps my best reason for editing this book is a hope of sharing my enthusiasm for the theater with others.To do this I have searched through dozens of plays to find the ones that I think best show the power and purpose of the short play.
Each play has a theme or central idea which the playwright(剧作家) hopes to get across through dialogue and action.A few characters are used to create a single impression growing out of the theme.It is not my intention to point out the central theme of each of the plays in this collection,for that would,indeed,ruin the pleasure of reading,discussing,and thinking about the plays and the effectiveness of the playwright.However,a variety of types is represented here.These include comedy,satire,poignant drama,historical and regional drama.To show the versatility(多面性) of the short play,I have included a guidance play,a radio play and a television play.
Among the writers of the plays in this collection,Paul Green,Susan Glaspell,Maxwell Anderson,Thornton Wilder,William Saroyan,and Tennessee Williams have all received Pulitzer Prizes for their contributions to the theater.More information about the playwrights will be found at the end of this book.
To get the most out of reading these plays,try to picture the play on stage,with you,the reader,in the audience.The houselights dim(变暗).The curtains are about to open,and in a few minutes the action and dialogue will tell you the story.
21.What do we know about the author from the first paragraph?
A.He has written dozens of plays.
B.He has a deep love for the theater.
C.He is a professional stage actor.
D.He likes reading short plays to others.
22.What does the author avoid doing in his work?
A.Stating the plays? central ideas.
B.Selecting works by famous playwrights.
C.Including various types of plays.
D.Offering information on the playwrights.

23.What does the author suggest readers do while reading the plays?
A.Control their feelings.
B.Apply their acting skills.
C.Use their imagination.
D.Keep their audience in mind.
24.What is this text?
A.A short story.
B.An introduction to a book.
C.A play review.
D.An advertisement for a theater.
B
The traffic signals along Factoria Boulevard in Bellevue,Washington,generally don?t flash the same length of green twice in a row,especially at rush hour.At 9:30 am,the full red/yellow/green signal cycle might be 140 seconds.By 9:33 am,a burst of additional traffic might push it to 145 seconds.Less traffic at 9:37 am could push it down to 135.Just like the traffic itself,the timing of the signals changes.
That is by design.Bellevue,a fast-growing city just east of Seattle,uses a system that is gaining popularity around the US:intersection(十字路口) signals that can adjust in real time to traffic conditions.These lights,known as adaptive signals,have led to significant declines in both the trouble and cost of travels between work and home.
“Adaptive signals can make sure that the traffic demand that is there is being addressed,”says Alex Stevanovic,a researcher at Florida Atlantic University.
For all of Bellevue?s success,adaptive signals are not a cure-all for jammed roadways.Kevin Balke,a research engineer at the Texas A&M University Transportation Institute,says that while smart lights can be particularly beneficial for some cities,others are so jammed that only a sharp reduction in the number of cars on the road will make a meaningful difference.“It?s not going to fix everything,but adaptive signals have some benefits for smaller cities,”he says.
In Bellevue,the switch to adaptive signals has been a lesson in the value of welcoming new approaches.In the past,there was often an automatic reaction to increased traffic:just widen the roads,says Mark Poch,the Bellevue Transportation Department?s traffic engineering manager.Now he hopes that other cities will consider making their streets run smarter instead of just making them bigger.
25.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Increased length of green lights.
B.Shortened traffic signal cycle.
C.Flexible timing of traffic signals.
D.Smooth traffic flow on the road.
26.What does Kevin Balke say about adaptive signals?
A.They work better on broad roads.
B.They should be used in other cities.
C.They have greatly reduced traffic on the road.
D.They are less helpful in cities seriously jammed.
27.What can we learn from Bellevue?s success?
A.It is rewarding to try new things.
B.The old methods still work today.
C.It pays to put theory into practice.
D.The simplest way is the best way.
C
Challenging work that requires lots of analytical thinking,planning and other managerial skills might help your brain stay sharp as you age,a study published Wednesday in the journal Neurology suggests.
Researchers from the University of Leipzig in Germany gathered more than 1,000 retired workers who were over age 75 and assessed the volunteers? memory and thinking skills through a battery of tests.Then,for eight years,the scientists asked the same group to come back to the lab every 18 months to take the same sorts of tests.
Those who had held mentally stimulating(刺激),demanding jobs before retirement tended to do the best on the tests.And they tended to lose cognitive(认知) function at a much slower rate than those with the least mentally challenging jobs.The results held true even after the scientists accounted for the participants? overall health status.
“This works just like physical exercise,”says Francisca Then,who led the study.“After a long run,you may feel like you?re in pain,you may feel tired.But it makes you fit.After a long day at work—sure,you will feel tired,but it can help your brain stay healthy.”
It?s not just corporate jobs,or even paid work that can help keep your brain fit,Then points out.A waiter?s job,for example,that requires multitasking,teamwork and decision-making could be just as stimulating as any high-level office work.And “running a family household requires high-level planning and coordinating(协调),”she says.“You have to organize the activities of the children and take care of the bills and groceries.”
Of course,our brains can decline as we grow older for lots of reasons—including other environmental influences or genetic factors.Still,continuing to challenge yourself mentally and keeping your mind busy can only help.
28.Why did the scientists ask the volunteers to take the tests?
A.To assess their health status.
B.To evaluate their work habits.
C.To analyze their personality.
D.To measure their mental ability.
29.How does Francisca Then explain her findings in paragraph 4?
A.By using an expert?s words.
B.By making a comparison.
C.By referring to another study.
D.By introducing a concept.
30.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.Retired Workers Can Pick Up New Skills
B.Old People Should Take Challenging Jobs
C.Your Tough Job Might Help Keep You Sharp
D.Cognitive Function May Decline As You Age

I experienced years of loneliness as a child.　31　 His friends teased him about babysitting his sister and his interests were far different from mine.With no other kids of my age in the neighborhood,I had to spend hours by myself. 
A bright spot for me turned out to be reading.My love of the written word began early as my mother read to me every evening.　32　 I started reading books on my own before age 5 and my mother took me to the public library once a week to borrow several books.I quickly graduated from typical children?s books to ones with fewer pictures and longer chapters.Reading opened new worlds to me.　33

　35　 My parents made it a point for their two kids to spend time outside,no matter the weather or season.My brother,of course,raced off to be with his friends,while I had plenty to do myself.There was making leaf houses in autumn,ice skating in winter,and so much more.They?re all memories I treasure today.

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
One fall,my wife Elli and I had a single goal:to photograph polar bears.We were staying at a research camp outside “the polar bear capital of the world”—the town of Churchill in Manitoba,Canada.
Taking pictures of polar bears is amazing but also dangerous.Polar bears—like all wild animals—should be photographed from a safe distance.When I?m face to face with a polar bear,I like it to be through a camera with a telephoto lens.But sometimes,that is easier said than done.This was one of those times.
As Elli and I cooked dinner,a young male polar bear who was playing in a nearby lake sniffed,and smelled our garlic bread.
The hungry bear followed his nose to our camp,which was surrounded by a high wire fence.He pulled and bit the wire.He stood on his back legs and pushed at the wooden fence posts.
Terrified,Elli and I tried all the bear defense actions we knew.We yelled at the bear,hit pots hard,and fired blank shotgun shells into the air.Sometimes loud noises like these will scare bears off.Not this polar bear though—he just kept trying to tear down the fence with his massive paws(爪子).
I radioed the camp manager for help.He told me a helicopter was on its way,but it would be 30 minutes before it arrived.Making the best of this close encounter(相遇),I took some pictures of the bear.
Elli and I feared the fence wouldn?t last through 30 more minutes of the bear?s punishment.The camp manager suggested I use pepper spray.The spray burns the bears? eyes,but doesn?t hurt them.So I approached our uninvited guest slowly and,through the fence,sprayed him in the face.With an angry roar(吼叫),the bear ran to the lake to wash his eyes.
注意:
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2.至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语;
3.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;
4.续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。

(Text 4)

(Text 5)

M:What?s up?

W:Are you leaving for the railway station now,Jack? It?s so early.
M:Just avoiding the rush hour traffic.I don?t want to be late.
W:So you have to wait for about two hours? I don?t think there?s scenery to look at.
M:Don?t worry! I?ll take a book with me.
W:It?s too noisy to read in the railway station.I would usually look around the shops while waiting for the train.
M:But I?ve already got all the gifts for my parents and sisters.I don?t need to buy anything.If I really can?t focus on the book,I may phone up some friends I haven?t talked to in a while.
W:That?s a nice idea.Betty told me last time that she often spent the waiting time writing a to-do list so that she?d not miss anything in the days to come.

W:Bye!

W:That?s wonderful,but are you going to quit college?
M:That?s exactly the problem.One side of me says,“Oh,go ahead! You can go back to college anytime.What job could you get after college that would pay you $15 an hour? That?s $30,000 a year!”
W:And then?
M:And then,the other side says,“Hold it,not so fast! For all those years you were in the army,you planned to go to college so that you would have many job possibilities to choose from.You?ve planned your whole life around going to college.And now...”
W:I can see it.It?s true that with your experience in the army,you could do excellent work repairing cars if you accept the job.But you are doing very well now.Just think of the future.You will get better jobs.
(Text 9)
W:Hey,John.Can I talk to you for a minute?
M:Sure,what?s up?
W:I wanted to let you know about a book club I joined a few months ago.I know you do a lot of reading,so I thought you might want to come with me next month.
M:Oh,that sounds like fun.When does the group meet?
W:Usually the last Saturday of the month at 7:30 in the evening.Is that too late for you?
M:No,I think that?s okay.What do you talk about in the group?
W:Well,every month we choose a new book.And then during the next meeting,we discuss it.
M:What books have you read?
W:Quite a lot.Recently we have read The Beautiful Mind and The Great Gatsby.Now we are reading The Kite Runner.
M:The Kite Runner? I?ve heard that?s a good book.What?s it about?
W:It?s about a boy who grows up in Afghanistan during the 1980s.
M:That sounds interesting.I?d love to come.
W:Great! The next meeting will be held in two weeks,so you still have time to read the book.
(Text 10)
W:Today,let?s begin with note-taking techniques.Note-taking is an important skill not only for taking classes,but also for doing your job in the future.I?d like to draw your attention to certain points about taking notes.First,remember that note-taking should be 75% listening and only 25% writing,so don?t try to write down every single word the teacher says.Ignore what is unimportant and write in phrases,not complete sentences.Second,leave spaces and lines between main ideas.You may want to add some information later.I find that some of you are very good at making use of color,mapping web,and symbols such as arrows,circles and boxes.I highly recommend these tools to all of you,because the use of them makes the outline more easily readable and interesting than the blocks of text.It also makes sure that important words stand out.Here are some examples.

31.G　此句为过渡句。根据空后一句“His friends teased him about babysitting his sister and his interests were far different from mine.”可知,设空句应提及“His”的身份,即G项中的“My older brother”。故选G。
32.D　此句为段中承上启下过渡句。根据空前一句提到“我对书写字的爱始于母亲每天晚上给我读故事的时候”和下文提到“我很快就从典型的儿童读物变成了插图少、章节多的书”可知此处应指“我喜欢书中的彩色照片”与上句构成递进与下文形成对比。结合选项可知D项最符合语境。故选D。
33.A　此句为段尾句。根据前一句提到阅读为“我”打开了新世界可知,接下来应描述作者的感受。结合选项可知A项“我不再孤独”与空前一句形成了因果关系,符合语境。故选A。
34.F　此句为过渡句。根据前一句“当我的母亲看到我的创作时,她说我的设计很有创意”及下文“make things”和选项F“making things”属于同词复现。故选F。
35.E　此句为段首句。根据后一句“无论天气或季节,我的父母都要让他们的两个孩子花时间在户外”可知关键词“outside”,结合选项可知E项“outdoors”属于同词复现。故选E。
第三部分　语言运用
第一节
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者一直在山坡放羊。一天作者开着拖拉机带着他的狗去田地的路上发现了一只走散的小羊。于是,作者下车去照看小羊,把自己的狗留在了车上。后来作者帮助小羊找到了妈妈。令作者意想不到的是,自己的狗开着拖拉机冲到了高速路上。作者赶紧沿途追赶,害怕狗造成严重的后果。幸运的是,狗没有受伤,也没有给其他人造成伤害。
36.B　下文说小羊和它的妈妈走散了,所以作者是无意中“发现”了一只迷路的小羊。drop落下;spot发现;carry搬;return返回。故选B。
37.D　根据下文 “Lamb and mother”可知小羊是和它的妈妈走散了。kid小孩;friend朋友;owner主人;mother妈妈。故选D。
38.C　上文说小羊和它的妈妈走散了,所以可以推测出作者跳下拖拉机去照看它。ask about询问;play with同……一起玩;tend to照看;run into撞上。故选C。
39.C　下文说作者转过身去看拖拉机,因为小羊和它的妈妈重聚了。free使自由;switch转变;reunite重聚;examine检查。故选C。
40.A　上文说作者看见拖拉机突然离开了自己,下文提到作者跳下车时已经拉上了手刹,所以这让作者感到“出乎意料”。unexpected出乎意料的;dangerous危险的;embarrassing使人尴尬的;difficult困难的。故选A。
41.D　根据“while Don stayed in his seat”可知“我”跳下车,照顾小羊的时候,Don还坐在他的座位上。很显然,是Don以某种方式使车子动了起来。fortunately幸运地;generally通常;immediately立即;obviously显然。故选D。
42.B　根据“...I turned back to the tractor only to see it move suddenly away from me.”可知“我”转过身去看拖拉机,却看见它突然离开了“我”,所以这里指的是Don开走了“我”的车。lamb小羊;vehicle车辆;seat座位;fence栅栏。故选B。
43.A　从下文作者拼命地追可知,作者“看见”了拖拉机朝高速公路开去。see看见;stop停止;remember记得;drive驾驶。故选A。
44.B　根据上文提到“...near where a motorway cuts through my land.”可知此处指“高速公路”。crowd人群;motorway高速公路;field旷野;hill小山。故选B。
45.B　根据“I ran desperately”和“It crashed through a wooden fence and disappeared.”可知作者没有追上拖拉机。take off 起飞;catch up追上;hold back阻止;get out出去。故选B。
46.D　此处指Don平静地看着“我”,这是“我”最后看到的事情。real真实的;best最好的;basic基本的;last最后的。故选D。
47.C　根据“and looked over”可知“我”抵达了栅栏。fix固定;notice注意;reach抵达;close关。故选C。
48.A　根据“the crash barrier in the central reservation”可知拖拉机是靠在路中间预留地带的防撞栏上。rest倚靠;run跑;park停车;turn转动。故选A。
49.D　根据“fast-flowing traffic”可知这条高速公路非常繁忙。steep陡峭的;long长的;rough粗糙的;busy繁忙的。故选D。
50.B　下文提到作者的狗冲回作者身边,所以作者一定是“接近”了拖拉机。abandon抛弃;approach接近; recognize意识到;repair修理。故选B。
51.C　根据空前“he jumped out onto the road”和空后“dashed back to me”可知作者的狗没有受伤。unclean不洁的;uncertain 不确定的;unhurt没有受伤的;unhappy不快乐的。故选C。
52.A　下文提到高速公路的运行又恢复了正常,可知是警察到达后处理的结果。arrive到达;reply回答;survive幸存;wait等待。故选A。
53.C　作者的狗驾驶着拖拉机上了车水马龙的高速路,结果却没有人受伤,所以作者不相信自己有这么好的“运气”。ability能力;dream梦想;luck运气;idea想法。故选C。
54.D　根据生活常识可知,动物开车上了高速路,结果是令人非常可怕的。common普通的;confusing混乱的;desirable令人向往的;awful可怕的。故选D。
55.A　根据下文“I didn?t want him thinking I was angry with him.”可知作者不想让Don认为自己生他的气,所以作者给他提供了一顿特别的晚餐。meal餐;饭食;test测验;job工作;lesson教训。故选A。
第二节
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了农业的发展史。
56.in　考查介词。根据空前“the world they lived”可知此处指“生活在”,live为不及物动词,后需跟介词in再跟地点名词。故填in。
57.what　考查宾语从句的连接词。由空前on可知宾语从句缺少连接词;由空后could be hunted可知此处缺少主语,因此需用what。故填what。
58.than　考查比较级的标志词。由空前more food可知此处缺少比较级标志词than。故填than。
59.was needed　考查动词一般过去时的被动语态。由所给词汇need和主语more food可知二者之间存在被动关系,因此需用被动语态;根据上一句were born可知此处动词的时态为一般过去时且food为不可数名词,因此需填was needed。故填was needed。
60.to change　考查非谓语动词。分析句子成分可知此处缺少目的状语,因此需用不定式。故填to change。
61.had discovered　考查动词的过去完成时。由时间状语“By about 6,000 BC(到大约在公元前6 000年为止)”可知此处谓语动词需用过去完成时。故填had discovered。
62.seasons　考查可数名词复数。结合所给词汇season可知该词为可数名词,因此需用复数形式。故填seasons。
63.making　考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,make use of和逻辑主语they之间存在主动关系,而且本句话真正的谓语为learned,不缺谓语,因此需用现在分词形式作状语。故填making。
【技巧点拨】提示词是动词时,一般考查时态和语态、主谓一致和非谓语动词三种形式。有时也有动词转换为名词类的考题。作答时要遵循以下步骤:①确定是否是谓语动词。若是非谓语动词要确定是用动词-ing形式、动词-ed形式,还是动词不定式。②确定主被动关系。③确定句子的时态。④注意主语和谓语动词的一致性。
64.the　考查定冠词。with the rise of 意为“随着……的崛起”,为固定词组。故填the。
65.meant　考查动词的一般过去时。分析句子,主句部分无其他动词,且由that引导的宾语从句谓语动词worked可知此处谓语动词需用一般过去时。故填meant。
