　　Animals can express their needs using a lot of ways. For instance, almost all animals have distinct vocals (聲音) that they rely on to either ask for help, scare away any dangerous animals or look for shelter. But cats are special creatures who possess amazing vocalization skills. They are able to have entire conversations with humans using meows and youre able to interpret it. If a pet cat is hungry, it will keep meowing to attract attention and find food. However, when a cat is looking for affection, they tend to produce stretched and soft meows. Meowing starts as soon as a baby cat is brought to life and uses it to get the mothers attention and be fed.

　　Cats have many heightened senses, but their sense of smell is quite impressive. They use their noses to assess their environment and look out for any signs of danger. They will sniff out specific areas before they choose a place to relax. However, another way the cats are able to distinguish between situations is by looking for familiar smells. Your cat will likely smell your face and store the smell in its memory and use it to recognize you in the future. Thats why most pet cats are able to tell immediately if their owners were around any other cats, which they dont usually like.

　　Dogs are known for their impressive fetching habit, but cats take this behavior up a notch. Many cats will find random objects outside and bring them to their owners. This is a very old habit thats been present in all kinds of predators (食肉動物). Cats bring gifts for their owners to show they love you. These adorable little hunters are just doing something that its been in their nature since the beginning of time. So just go along with it!

　　4. What can be learned about cats meowing from the first paragraph?

　　A. Its a survival skill. B. Its taught by mother cats.

　　C. Its hard to interpret. D. Its getting louder with age.

　　5. How does a pet cat assess different situations?

　　A. By listening for sounds. B. By touching familiar objects.

　　C. By checking on smells. D. By communicating with other cats.

　　6. Which best explains the phrase "take. . . up notch" in paragraph 3?

　　A. Perform appropriately. B. Move faster. C. Act strangely. D. Do better.

　　7. What is a suitable title for the text?

　　A. Tips on Finding a Smart Cat B. Understanding Your Cats Behavior

　　C. Have Fun with Your Cat D. How to Keep Your Cat Healthy

　　【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. B

　　【解析】

　　【導語】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了貓通過叫聲、嗅覺和帶回禮物來表達需求、評估環境和展示愛意。

　　【4題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第一段“Animals can express their needs using a lot of ways. For instance, almost all animals have distinct vocals (聲音) that they rely on to either ask for help, scare away any dangerous animals or look for shelter. (動物可以用很多方式來表達他們的需求。例如，幾乎所有的動物都有獨特的聲音，它們依靠這些聲音來尋求幫助，嚇跑危險的動物或尋找庇護。)”和“Meowing starts as soon as a baby cat is brought to life and uses it to get the mother’s attention and be fed. (貓寶寶一出生就開始喵喵叫，喵喵叫是為了引起媽媽的注意和被喂食。)”可知，貓叫聲是一種生存技能。故選A。

　　【5題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第二段“Cats have many heightened senses, but their sense of smell is quite impressive. They use their noses to assess their environment and look out for any signs of danger. (貓有許多敏銳的感官，但它們的嗅覺令人印象深刻。它們用鼻子來評估周圍的環境，尋找任何危險的跡象。)”可知，寵物貓通過檢查氣味來評估不同情況。故選C。

　　【6題詳解】

　　詞句猜測題。根據第三段劃線詞前半句“Dogs are known for their impressive fetching habit, (狗以其令人印象深刻的抓取習慣而聞名)”和后句“Many cats will find random objects outside and bring them to their owners. (許多貓會在外面隨意找到一些東西，并把它們帶給主人。)”可知，狗以取回東西而聞名，但貓可以從外邊找到東西帶回來，因此在這一行為上更上一層樓。短語take ... up a notch是用來形容貓在帶回東西這一行為上做得更好或更出色。故選D。

　　【7題詳解】

　　主旨大意題。根據第一段“Animals can express their needs using a lot of ways.( 動物可以用很多方式來表達他們的需求。)”及全文可知，文章都在介紹和解釋貓的各種行為方式，包括叫聲、嗅覺和帶回禮物的習慣，以及這些行為背后的原因和意義。所以“Understanding Your Cat’s Behavior(了解你的貓的行為)”作為文章標題最為合適。故選B。

　　C

　　The Saint Lukas train doesn’t accept passengers — it accepts only the sick. The Saint Lukas is one of five government-sponsored medical trains that travel to remote towns in central and eastern Russia. Each stop lasts an average of two days, and during that time the doctors and nurses on board provide rural (鄉村) populations with basic medical care, X-ray scans and prescriptions.

　　“People started queuing to make an appointment early in the morning,” says Emile Ducke, a German photographer who traveled with the staff of the Saint Lukas for a two-week trip in November through the vast regions (區域) of Krasnoyarsk and Khakassia.

　　Russia’s public health care service has been in serious need of modernization. The government has struggled to come up with measures to address the problem, particularly in the poorer, rural areas east of the Volga River, including arranging doctor’s appointments by video chat and expanding financial aid programs to motivate doctors to practice medicine in remote parts of the country like Krasnoyarsk.

　　The annual arrival of the Saint Lukas is another attempt to improve the situation. For 10 months every year, the train stops at about eight stations over two weeks, before returning to the regional capital to refuel and restock (補給). Then it starts all over again the next month. Most stations wait about a year between visits.

　　Doctors see up to 150 patients every day. The train’s equipment allows for basic checkups. “I was very impressed by the doctors and their assistants working and living in such little space but still staying focused and very concerned,” says Ducke. “They were the best chance for many rural people to get the treatment they want. ”

　　8. How is the Saint Lukas different from other trains?

　　A. It runs across countries. B. It reserves seats for the seniors.

　　C. It functions as a hospital. D. It travels along a river.

　　9. What can we infer from paragraph 3 about Krasnoyarsk?

　　A. It is heavily populated. B. It offers training for doctors.

　　C. It is a modern city. D. It needs medical aid.

　　10. How long can the Saint Lukas work with one supply?

　　A. About a year. B. About ten months.

　　C. About two months. D. About two weeks.

　　11. What is Ducke’s attitude toward the Saint Lukas’ services?

　　A. Appreciative. B. Doubtful C. Ambiguous. D. Cautious.

　　【答案】8. C 9. D 10. D 11. A

　　【解析】

　　【導語】本文是說明文。文章主要講述政府贊助了五輛名為圣盧卡斯的醫療列車為俄羅斯中部和東部偏遠地區每年提供為期10個月的巡回醫療服務，為鄉村居民提供基本醫療檢查和治療，改善當地醫療條件。

　　【8題詳解】

　　細節理解題，根據文章第一段“The Saint Lukas is one of five government-sponsored medical trains that travel to remote towns in central and eastern Russia. Each stop lasts an average of two days, and during that time the doctors and nurses on board provide rural(鄉村)populations with basic medical care, X-ray scans and prescriptions. (圣盧卡斯號是五列政府資助的醫療列車之一，前往俄羅斯中部和東部的偏遠城鎮。每一站平均停留兩天，在此期間，船上的醫生和護士為農村人口提供基本醫療服務、X光掃描和處方。)”可知，圣盧卡斯號與其他火車的不同之處在于它是政府資助的醫療火車，充當醫院。故選C。

　　【9題詳解】

　　推理判斷題，第三段提到“Russia’s public health care service has been in serious need of modernization. The government has struggled to come up with measures to address the problem, particularly in the poorer, rural areas east of the Volga River, including arranging doctors appointments by video chat and expanding financial aid programs to motivate doctors to practice medicine in remote parts of the country like Krasnoyarsk. (俄羅斯的公共衛生保健服務迫切需要現代化。政府一直在努力提出解決這一問題的措施，特別是在伏爾加河以東較貧窮的農村地區，包括通過視頻聊天安排醫生預約，擴大財政援助計劃，激勵醫生到克拉斯諾亞爾斯克等偏遠地區行醫。) ”可以推斷，Krasnoyarsk需要醫療援助，故選D。

　　【10題詳解】

　　細節理解題，根據第四段“For 10 months every year, the train stops at about eight stations over two weeks, before returning to the regional capital to refuel and restock (補給). ”(每年有10個月，火車兩周內停靠大約八個車站，然后返回地區首府進行補給和重新裝貨。) ”可知，圣盧卡斯號一份補給可以工作大約兩周，故選D。

　　【11題詳解】

　　推斷判斷題。根據最后一段的““I was very impressed by the doctors and their assistants working and living in such little space but still staying focused and very concerned, ” says Ducke. “They were the best chance for many rural people to get the treatment they want. ”(“醫生和他們的助手在這么小的空間里工作和生活，但仍然保持專注和非常關注，這給我留下了深刻的印象，”Ducke說。這是許多農村人獲得他們想要的治療的最好機會。”)”可知，Ducke對Saint Lukas的服務持贊賞的態度，故選A。

　　【點睛】

　　D

　　“I didn’t like the ending,” I said to my favorite college professor. It was my junior year of undergraduate, and I was doing an independent study on Victorian literature. I had just finished reading The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot, and I was heartbroken with the ending. Prof. Gracie, with all his patience, asked me to think about it beyond whether I liked it or not. He suggested I think about the difference between endings that I wanted for the characters and endings that were right for the characters, endings that satisfied the story even if they didn’t have a traditionally positive outcome. Of course, I would have preferred a different ending for Tom and Maggie Tulliver, but the ending they got did make the most sense for them.

　　This was an aha moment for me, and I never thought about endings the same way again. From then on, if I wanted to read an ending guaranteed to be happy, I’d pick up a love romance. If I wanted an ending I couldn’t guess, I’d pick up a mystery (懸疑小說). One where I kind of knew what was going to happen, historical fiction. Choosing what to read became easier.

　　But writing the end — that’s hard. It’s hard for writers because endings carry so much weight with readers. You have to balance creating an ending thats unpredictable, but doesn’t seem to come from nowhere, one that fits what’s right for the characters.

　　That’s why this issue (期) of Writer’s Digest aims to help you figure out how to write the best ending for whatever kind of writing you’re doing. If it’s short stories, Peter Mountford breaks down six techniques you can try to see which one helps you stick the landing. Elizabeth Sims analyzes the final chapters of five great novels to see what key points they include and how you can adapt them for your work.

　　This issue won’t tell you what your ending should be — that’s up to you and the story you’re telling — but it might provide what you need to get there.

　　12. Why did the author go to Prof. Gracie?

　　A. To discuss a novel. B. To submit a book report.

　　C. To argue for a writer. D. To ask for a reading list.

　　13. What did the author realize after seeing Gracie?

　　A. Writing is a matter of personal preferences.

　　B. Readers are often carried away by character.

　　C. Each type of literature has its unique end.

　　D. A story which begins well will end well.

　　14. What is expected of a good ending?

　　A. It satisfies readers’ taste. B. It fits with the story development.

　　C. It is usually positive. D. It is open for imagination.

　　15. Why does the author mention Peter Mountford and Elizabeth Sims?

　　A. To give examples of great novelists. B. To stress the theme of this issue.

　　C. To encourage writing for the magazine. D. To recommend their new books.

　　【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. B

　　【解析】

　　【導語】本文是一篇議論文。文章首先通過作者與教授關于小說結局的討論引發了對結局的思考，接著闡述了不同類型的文學作品結局的特點，最后提出了寫作好的結局的重要性并介紹了《Writer’s Digest》雜志如何幫助作家寫出更好的結尾。

　　【12題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第一段““I didn’t like the ending,” I said to my favorite college professor. It was my junior year of undergraduate, and I was doing an independent study on Victorian literature. I had just finished reading The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot, and I was heartbroken with the ending. Prof. Gracie, with all his patience, asked me to think about it beyond whether I liked it or not.( “我不喜歡這個結局，”我對我最喜歡的大學教授說。那是我大三的時候，我正在做一項關于維多利亞文學的獨立研究。我剛剛讀完喬治·艾略特的《弗洛斯河上的.磨坊》，讀到結尾我很傷心。格雷西教授耐心地讓我考慮一下，不要只看我喜不喜歡)”可知，作者去找格雷西教授是為了討論小說。故選A項。

　　【13題詳解】

　　推理判斷題。根據第二段“This was an aha moment for me, and I never thought about endings the same way again. From then on, if I wanted to read an ending guaranteed to be happy, I’d pick up a love romance. If I wanted an ending I couldn’t guess, I’d pick up a mystery (懸疑小說). One where I kind of knew what was going to happen, historical fiction. Choosing what to read became easier.( 這對我來說是一個頓悟的時刻，我再也沒有想過同樣的結局。從那時起，如果我想讀一個保證幸福的結局，我就會選一部愛情小說。如果我想要一個我猜不到的結局，我會選一本神秘小說。一種是我知道會發生什么，歷史小說。選擇讀什么變得更容易了)”可知，見過格雷西教授后，作者意識到了每種類型的文學都有其獨特的結局。故選C項。

　　14題詳解】

　　推理判斷題。根據第三段“But writing the end—that’s hard. It’s hard for writers because endings carry so much weight with readers. You have to balance creating an ending that’s unpredictable, but doesn’t seem to come from nowhere, one that fits what’s right for the characters.(但是寫出結局——那很難。對作家來說很難，因為結局對讀者來說意義重大。你必須平衡創造一個不可預測的結局，但這個結局又不能顯得憑空而來，要適合角色的設定)”可知，人們對一個好結局的期望是結局又不能顯得憑空而來，要適合角色的設定，也就是符合故事的發展。故選B項。

　　【15題詳解】

　　推理判斷題。根據倒數第二段“That’s why this issue (期) of Writer’s Digest aims to help you figure out how to write the best ending for whatever kind of writing you’re doing. If it’s short stories, Peter Mountford breaks down six techniques you can try to see which one helps you stick the landing. Elizabeth Sims analyzes the final chapters of five great novels to see what key points they include and how you can adapt them for your work.( 這就是為什么這期《Writer’s Digest》旨在幫助你找出如何為你正在寫的任何類型的作品寫出最好的結局。如果是短篇小說，彼得·蒙特福德分解了六種技巧，你可以嘗試看看哪一種能幫助你完美著陸。伊麗莎白·西姆斯分析了五部偉大小說的最后幾章，看看它們包含了哪些關鍵點，以及你如何將它們應用到你的作品中)”可知，作者提到彼得·蒙福德和伊麗莎白·西姆斯是為了強調這期《Writer’s Digest》的主題，即幫助讀者寫出更好的結尾。故選B項。

　　第二節（共5小題; 每小題2分, 滿分10分）

　　根據短文內容, 從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

　　What is moderation (適度)? Basically, it means eating only as much food as your body needs. You should feel satisfied at the end of a meal, but not too full. ____16____ But it doesnt mean saying goodbye to the foods you love.

　　Take your time. Its important to slow down and think about food as something nutritious rather than just something to eat in between meetings. ____17____ It actually takes a few minutes for your brain to tell your body that it has had enough food, so eat slowly and stop eating before you feel full.

　　Eat with others whenever possible. Eating alone, “specially in front of the TV or computer, often leads to mindless overeating. And be careful about the foods you keep at hand. Its more challenging to eat in moderation if you have unhealthy snacks at the ready, like cookies. ____18____

　　Control emotional (情緒的) eating. ____19____ Many of us also turn to food to deal with unpleasant emotions such as sadness, loneliness, or boredom. But by learning healthier ways to manage emotions, you can regain control over the food you eat and your feelings.

　　____20____ A healthy breakfast can start your metabolism (新陳代謝), while eating small, healthy meals keeps your energy up all day. Avoid eating late at night. Try to eat dinner earlier and fast for 14 — 16 hours until breakfast the next morning.

　　【16題詳解】

　　上文“Basically, it means eating only as much food as your body needs, You should feel satisfied at the end of a meal, but not too full. (基本上，它意味著只吃你身體需要的食物，你應該在用餐結束時感到滿足，但不要太飽)”指出，進餐時不要吃太飽，吃東西要適量。下文“But it doesn’t mean saying goodbye to the foods you love. (但這并不意味著要告別你喜歡的食物)”指出，適量進食不是要放棄吃自己喜歡的食物。F項“對我們許多人來說，節制意味著比現在吃的少。”解釋了何為適量進食。承上啟下，符合文意，選項中的“means”與下文一致。故選F項。

　　【17題詳解】

　　根據上文“Take your time. It’s important to slow down and think about food as something nutritious rather than just something to eat in between meetings. (慢慢來。放慢腳步，把食物看作是有營養東西，而不僅僅是會議間隙吃的東西，這一點很重要)”可推知，本段主要建議讀者吃東西要細嚼慢咽，不要過于急躁。C項“不要在上班的路上急忙吃下一頓飯。”承接上文。符合文意。故選C項。

　　【18題詳解】

　　上文“It’s more challenging to eat in moderation if you have unhealthy snacks at the ready, like cookies. (如果你已經準備好了不健康的零食，比如餅干，那么適量食用就更具挑戰性了。)”指出，吃不健康的食物不利于適度飲食，E項“相反，你應該選擇健康的食物。”符合文意，建議讀者選擇健康的食物。選項中的“healthy”與上文中的“unhealthy”相對應。故選E項。

　　【19題詳解】

　　根據本段首句“Control emotional (情緒的) eating. (控制情緒化進食)”以及下文“Many of us also turn to food to deal with unpleasant emotions such as sadness, loneliness, or boredom.(我們中的許多人也會求助于食物來處理不愉快的情緒，如悲傷、孤獨或無聊)”可推知，本段主要建議讀者不要情緒化的進行暴飲暴食，要進行健康飲食。B項“我們吃東西并不總是為了充饑。”指出有些人吃東西并不總是為了充饑，引出下文有些人通過食物發泄情緒，符合語境。故選B項。

　　【20題詳解】

　　設空處位于段首，總結全段，下文“A healthy breakfast can start your metabolism (新陳代謝), while eating small, healthy meals keeps your energy up all day, Avoid eating late at night. Try to eat dinner earlier and fast for 14 — 16 hours until breakfast the next morning. (健康的早餐可以啟動你的新陳代謝，而吃少量健康的食物可以讓你一整天都精力充沛，避免在深夜進食。盡量早點吃晚飯，禁食14 — 16個小時，直到第二天早上吃早餐。)”指出，我們在一天中的每個時間段都要健康飲食。A項“全天合理飲食。”符合語境。故選A項。

　　【解析】

　　【導語】本文是說明文。文章講述了美國國家公園的由來，即四個男人發現了一處非常美的自然風景區，決定好好保護它以供后人欣賞，并為此做出了許多努力。

　　【41題詳解】

　　考查非謂語動詞。句意：盡管各級都有各種規模和類型的公園，但國家公園尤其吸引我們的注意，因為它們體積大，種類繁多。固定搭配：tend to do sth.，表示“傾向于做某事”，不定式作賓語，故填to catch。

　　【42題詳解】

　　考查名詞。句意：它們是美國傳統的瑰寶。treasure表示“寶藏”，為可數名詞，結合前文they are，應用復數形式，故填treasures。

　　【43題詳解】

　　考查賓語從句。句意：1870年9月中旬，在一個涼爽、繁星點點的夜晚，四個男人在火洞河邊的營火前放松，這里現在是懷俄明州的西北部。后文為介詞in的賓語，is前缺主語，指物，主語用what引導賓語從句，作介詞in的賓語，故填what。

　　【44題詳解】

　　考查時態。句意：他們是一個由15人組成的探險隊的一部分，他們花了近五個星期的時間來見證那里的自然美景。本空前They指代上文提及的四個男人，時間為1870年，同時聯系后文had spent的過去完成時可知，本空時態為過去式且為復數形式，故填were。

　　【45題詳解】

　　考查被動語態。句意：對于這樣一個美麗的地方，我們應該做些什么呢？主語what指物，與謂語動詞do是被動關系，情態動詞should后接be done構成被動語態，故填be done。

　　【46題詳解】

　　考查代詞。句意：這個地區擁有獨特的、令人驚嘆的自然美景，必須作為國家公園保護好，為了所有國家的人都能享受。修飾名詞beauty用形容詞性物主代詞its，故填its。

　　【47題詳解】

　　考查介詞。句意同上。介詞for表目的，表示“為了所有國家的人都能享受”。 故填for。

　　【48題詳解】

　　考查名詞。句意：他們都同意了，并發誓要在旅行結束后推廣這個想法。冠詞修飾名詞，本空應填名詞作賓語，complete名詞形式為completion，不可數，故填completion。

　　【49題詳解】

　　考查形容詞最高級。句意：黃石公園是美國最大的國家公園，占地220萬英畝，直到1978年成為國家紀念碑的阿拉斯加南部的弗蘭格爾-圣伊萊亞斯在1980年以1230萬英畝的面積作為國家公園獲得這項榮譽。本空前有the，為形容詞最高級標志詞，結合下文“1978年成為國家紀念碑的阿拉斯加南部的弗蘭格爾-圣伊萊亞斯在1980年以1230萬英畝的面積獲得國家公園的榮譽”可知，用large的最高級largest作定語，故填largest。

　　【50題詳解】

　　考查定語從句。句意同上。本空所在句子為定語從句，先行詞為Wrangell-Saint Elias，從句中作主語，指物，引導非限制性定語從句用which，故填which。

　　Last week, I saw a program about Chongqing hotpot on TV. I was curious but planned a special one-day trip there with a friend of me. Our fast train was packing with passengers. A attendant gave us some travel brochures about Chongqing. When we arrived, we went straight a famous restaurant and ordered dishes, which tasted greatly. The atmosphere here made the meal all the more enjoyed. Hotpot is meant for families and friends to sit together, dip everything they like this in one pot, and shared friendship and love.

　　【答案】1. but→and

　　2. me→mine

　　3. packing→packed

　　4. A→An

　　5. straight后加 to

　　6. greatly → great

　　7. here → there

　　8. enjoyed →enjoyable

　　9.去掉this

　　10. shared→share

　　【解析】

　　【導語】本文是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述作者看了一個關于重慶火鍋節目后和一個朋友去那里一日游的經歷。

　　【詳解】1. 考查連詞。句意：我很好奇，和我的一個朋友計劃了一個特別的一日游。前后句之間為順承關系，所以用并列連詞and。故將but改成and。

　　2. 考查代詞。句意：我很好奇，和我的一個朋友計劃了一個特別的一日游。a friend of mine我的一個朋友。介詞of后接是名詞性物主代詞作賓語。故將me改成mine。

　　3. 考查非謂語動詞。句意：我們的快車上擠滿了乘客。be packed with“擠滿”，pack與train是被動關系。故將packing改成packed。

　　4. 考查冠詞。句意：一位服務員給了我們一些關于重慶的旅游手冊。名詞attendant 發音以元音音素開頭，所以用不定冠詞an。故將A改成An 。

　　5. 考查介詞。句意：當我們到達時，我們直接去了一家著名的餐館，點了一些菜，味道很好。固定短語go straight to“徑直前往”。故在straight后加 to。

　　6. 考查形容詞。句意：當我們到達時，我們直接去了一家著名的餐館，點了一些菜，味道很好。tasted是系動詞，后接形容詞作表語。故將greatly 改成 great 。

　　7. 考查代詞。句意：那里的氣氛使這頓飯更加愉快。描述剛剛到達的餐館，用there指代上文提到的餐館。故將here 改成 there。

　　8. 考查形容詞。句意：那里的氣氛使這頓飯更加愉快。more后接形容詞形式，在句中作賓語補足語。故將enjoyed 改成enjoyable。

　　9. 考查定語從句。句意：火鍋意味著家人和朋友坐在一起，把他們喜歡的東西放在一個鍋里，分享友誼和愛。分析句子結構可知，這里為定語從句。先行詞為everything，在定語從句中作賓語，省略關系代詞that，從句中this多余。故去掉this。

　　10. 考查非謂語動詞。句意：火鍋意味著家人和朋友坐在一起，把他們喜歡的東西放在一個鍋里，分享友誼和愛。不定式to后接動詞原形sit ，dip和share，表示目的。故將shared改成share。

　　【原文】W: Jack, how did you get to school when you were in primary school?

　　M: I lived close to my school, so I walked every day. Why?

　　W: Well, I remember that when we were kids, we often walked, rode a bike or caught the bus to school. Few of us were dropped off at the school gate by our parents.

　　M: I see what you mean, these days you can see traffic jams around schools that drop off at pick-up times, but it’s hard to blame the parents. They have good reasons for driving their kids to school, mostly to do with safety and convenience.

　　W: You have a point there, but it could also mean children are missing out on much needed exercise and other life skills. Some parents are just being over-protective with their children learning nothing, but living in fear of everything. Studies have found that children who spend more time outside tend to be healthier, better adjusted and better at dealing with stress.

　　B

　　“I am not crazy,” says Dr. William Farber, shortly after performing acupuncture (針灸) on a rabbit. “I am ahead of my time.” If he seems a little defensive, it might be because even some of his coworkers occasionally laugh at his unusual methods. But Farber is certain he’ll have the last laugh. He’s one of a small but growing number of American veterinarians (獸醫) now practicing “holistic” medicine-combining traditional Western treatments with acupuncture, chiropractic (按摩療法) and herbal medicine.

　　Farber, a graduate of Colorado State University, started out as a more conventional veterinarian. He became interested in alternative treatments 20 years ago when he suffered from terrible back pain. He tried muscle-relaxing drugs but found little relief. Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets.

　　Leigh Tindale’s dog Charlie had a serious heart condition. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared to put him to sleep, but Farber’s treatments eased her dog’s suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months. And Priscilla Dewing reports that her horse, Nappy, “moves more easily and rides more comfortably” after a chiropractic adjustment.

　　Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time, and if the past is any indication, he may be right: Since 1982, membership in the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association has grown from 30 to over 700. “Sometimes it surprises me that it works so well,” he says. “I will do anything to help an animal. That’s my job.”

　　24. What do some of Farber’s coworkers think of him?

　　A. He’s odd. B. He’s strict. C. He’s brave. D. He’s rude.

　　25. Why did Farber decide to try acupuncture on pets?

　　A. He was trained in it at university. B. He was inspired by another veterinarian.

　　C. He benefited from it as a patient. D. He wanted to save money for pet owners.

　　26. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?

　　A. Steps of a chiropractic treatment. B. The complexity of veterinarians’ work.

　　C. Examples of rare animal diseases. D. The effectiveness of holistic medicine.

　　27. Why does the author mention the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association?

　　A. To prove Farber’s point. B. To emphasize its importance.

　　C. To praise veterinarians. D. To advocate animal protection.

　　【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27. A

　　【解析】

　　【導語】本文是記敘文。文章講述獸醫威廉·法伯(William Farber)博士在從針灸中受益后，將綜合醫療應用于動物，并取得了初步成效。

　　【24題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第一段的“If he seems a little defensive, it might be because even some of his coworkers occasionally laugh at his unusual methods.( 如果他看起來有點自衛，那可能是因為他的一些同事偶爾會嘲笑他不尋常的方法。) ”可知，Farber的同事們有時會嘲笑他不尋常的方法，他們認為他很奇怪。故選A。

　　【25題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第二段的“Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets.(然后，他嘗試了針灸，這是一種古老的中國療法，并驚訝地發現，經過兩三次治療，他的病情有所好轉。對獸醫有效的方法似乎對他的病人也有效。因此，在研究了這些技術幾年后，他開始把它們提供給寵物。)”可知，Farber作為患者從針灸中受益，這促使他決定嘗試在寵物上使用針灸。故選C。

　　【26題詳解】

　　主旨大意題。根據第三段內容“Leigh Tindale’s dog Charlie had a serious heart condition. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared to put him to sleep, but Farber’s treatments eased her dog’s suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months. And Priscilla Dewing reports that her horse, Nappy, “moves more easily and rides more comfortably” after a chiropractic adjustment.(利·廷代爾的狗查理患有嚴重的心臟病。廷代爾說，查理心臟病發作后，她準備讓他進入睡眠狀態，但法伯的治療大大減輕了她的狗的痛苦，她能夠讓它多活五個月。普里西拉·杜因(Priscilla Dewing)報告說，她的馬納皮(Nappy)經過脊椎按摩調整后，“行動更容易，乘車更舒服”。) ”可知，本段主要講述了兩個例子，一個是Farber通過整體醫學方法幫助了患有嚴重心臟病的狗Charlie，另一個是馬Nappy在接受脊椎按摩治療后移動和騎行更為舒適。這些例子都是為了說明整體醫學的有效性。故選D。

　　【27題詳解】

　　推理判斷題。根據最后一段的內容“Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time, and if the past is any indication, he may be right: Since 1982, membership in the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association has grown from 30 to over 700. ( 法伯確信，隨著時間的推移，綜合療法會越來越受歡迎，如果過去有任何跡象的話，他可能是對的:自1982年以來，美國綜合獸醫協會的會員已經從30個增加到700多個。)”可知，法伯認為綜合療法會越來越受歡迎，隨后作者列舉了美國綜合獸醫協會的會員已經從30個增加到700多個的例子，因此推斷美國整體獸醫協會是為證明法伯的觀點。故選A。

　　C

　　Is comprehension the same whether a person reads a text onscreen or on paper? And are listening to and viewing content as effective as reading the written word when covering the same material? The answers to both questions are often “no”. The reasons relate to a variety of factors, including reduced concentration, an entertainment mindset (心態) and a tendency to multitask while consuming digital content.

　　When reading texts of several hundred words or more, learning is generally more successful when it’s on paper than onscreen. A large amount of research confirms this finding. The benefits of print reading particularly shine through when experimenters move from posing simple tasks — like identifying the main idea in a reading passage — to ones that require mental abstraction — such as drawing inferences from a text.

　　The differences between print and digital reading results are partly related to paper’s physical properties. With paper, there is a literal laying on of hands, along with the visual geography of distinct pages. People often link their memory of what they’ve read to how far into the book it was or where it was on the page.

　　But equally important is the mental aspect. Reading researchers have proposed a theory called “shallowing hypothesis (假說)”. According to this theory, people approach digital texts with a mindset suited to social media, which are often not so serious, and devote less mental effort than when they are reading print.

　　Audio (音頻) and video can feel more engaging than text, and so university teachers increasingly turn to these technologies — say, assigning an online talk instead of an article by the same person. However, psychologists have demonstrated that when adults read news stories, they remember more of the content than if they listen to or view identical pieces.

　　Digital texts, audio and video all have educational roles, especially when providing resources not available in print. However, for maximizing learning where mental focus and reflection are called for, educators shouldn’t assume all media are the same, even when they contain identical words.

　　28. What does the underlined phrase “shine through” in paragraph 2 mean?

　　A Seem unlikely to last. B. Seem hard to explain.

　　C. Become ready to use. D. Become easy to notice.

　　29. What does the shallowing hypothesis assume?

　　A. Readers treat digital texts lightly. B. Digital texts are simpler to understand.

　　C. People select digital texts randomly. D. Digital texts are suitable for social media.

　　30. Why are audio and video increasingly used by university teachers?

　　A. They can hold students attention. B. They are more convenient to prepare.

　　C. They help develop advanced skills. D. They are more informative than text.

　　31. What does the author imply in the last paragraph?

　　A. Students should apply multiple learning techniques.

　　B. Teachers should produce their own teaching material.

　　C. Print texts cannot be entirely replaced in education.

　　D. Education outside the classroom cannot be ignored.

　　【答案】28. D 29. A 30. A 31. C

　　【解析】

　　【導語】本文是議論文。主要討論了紙質閱讀與數字閱讀、音頻和視頻學習方式的差異和效果。

　　【28題詳解】

　　詞句猜測題。根據前文“When reading texts of several hundred words or more, learning is generally more successful when it’s on paper than onscreen. A large amount of research confirms this finding.(當閱讀幾百字或更多的文本時，在紙上學習通常比在屏幕上學習更成功。大量的研究證實了這一發現)”可知，在紙上學習更有成效，以及后文“when experimenters move from posing simple tasks — like identifying the main idea in a reading passage — to ones that require mental abstraction — such as drawing inferences from a text.(當實驗人員從提出簡單的任務(如識別閱讀文章的主旨)轉移到需要思維抽象的任務(如從文本中推斷)時)”推知，此處應是表達“當實驗者從簡單的任務轉向需要精神抽象的任務時，紙質閱讀的益處就變得顯而易見”之意，所以shine through應是“顯而易見”之意，和D項意思相近。故選D項。

　　【29題詳解】

　　推理判斷題。根據第四段“But equally important is the mental aspect. Reading researchers have proposed a theory called “shallowing hypothesis (假說)”. According to this theory, people approach digital texts with a mindset suited to social media, which are often not so serious, and devote less mental effort than when they are reading print.(但同樣重要的是精神層面。閱讀研究人員提出了一個名為“shallowing hypothesis”的理論。根據這一理論，人們以適合社交媒體的心態接觸數字文本，這些文本通常不那么嚴肅，與閱讀印刷品時相比，投入的精神努力也更少)”可知，shallowing hypothesis假設讀者在閱讀數字文本時會持有一種輕松的心態，不會像閱讀紙質書籍那樣投入太多的心理努力。故選A項。

　　【30題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第五段“Audio (音頻) and video can feel more engaging than text, and so university teachers increasingly turn to these technologies — say, assigning an online talk instead of an article by the same person.(音頻和視頻可能比文本更具吸引力，因此大學教師越來越多地轉向這些技術，例如分配在線講座而不是同一作者的文章)”可知，音頻和視頻比文本更能吸引學生的注意力，所以大學教師越來越多地使用這些技術。故選A項。

　　【31題詳解】

　　推理判斷題。根據最后一段“Digital texts, audio and video all have educational roles, especially when providing resources not available in print. However, for maximizing learning where mental focus and reflection are called for, educators shouldn’t assume all media are the same, even when they contain identical words.(數字文本、音頻和視頻都具有教育作用，尤其是在提供印刷品中無法獲得的資源時。然而，為了在需要精神集中和反思的情況下最大限度地學習，教育工作者不應假定所有媒體都是相同的，即使它們包含相同的單詞)”可知，盡管數字文本、音頻和視頻在教育中有一定作用，但當需要精神集中和反思以最大化學習時，教育者不應假定所有媒體都是相同的，即使它們包含相同的單詞。這表明作者認為紙質文本在教育中的作用仍然不可替代，因此暗示紙質文本在教育中的重要性。故選C項。

　　D

　　In the race to document the species on Earth before they go extinct, researchers and citizen scientists have collected billions of records. Today, most records of biodiversity are often in the form of photos, videos, and other digital records. Though they are useful for detecting shifts in the number and variety of species in an area, a new Stanford study has found that this type of record is not perfect.

　　“With the rise of technology it is easy for people to make observations of different species with the aid of a mobile application,” said Barnabas Daru, who is lead author of the study and assistant professor of biology in the Stanford School of Humanities and Sciences. “These observations now outnumber the primary data that comes from physical specimens (標本), and since we are increasingly using observational data to investigate how species are responding to global change, I wanted to know: Are they usable?”

　　Using a global dataset of 1.9 billion records of plants, insects, birds, and animals, Daru and his team tested how well these data represent actual global biodiversity patterns.

　　“We were particularly interested in exploring the aspects of sampling that tend to bias (使有偏差) data, like the greater likelihood of a citizen scientist to take a picture of a flowering plant instead of the grass right next to it,” said Daru.

　　Their study revealed that the large number of observation-only records did not lead to better global coverage. Moreover, these data are biased and favor certain regions, time periods, and species. This makes sense because the people who get observational biodiversity data on mobile devices are often citizen scientists recording their encounters with species in areas nearby. These data are also biased toward certain species with attractive or eye-catching features.

　　What can we do with the imperfect datasets of biodiversity?

　　“Quite a lot,” Daru explained. “Biodiversity apps can use our study results to inform users of oversampled areas and lead them to places — and even species — that are not well-sampled. To improve the quality of observational data, biodiversity apps can also encourage users to have an expert confirm the identification of their uploaded image.”

　　32. What do we know about the records of species collected now?

　　A. They are becoming outdated. B. They are mostly in electronic form.

　　C. They are limited in number. D. They are used for public exhibition.

　　33. What does Daru’s study focus on?

　　A. Threatened species. B. Physical specimens.

　　C. Observational data. D. Mobile applications.

　　34. What has led to the biases according to the study?

　　A. Mistakes in data analysis. B. Poor quality of uploaded pictures.

　　C. Improper way of sampling. D. Unreliable data collection devices.

　　35. What is Daru’s suggestion for biodiversity apps?

　　A. Review data from certain areas. B. Hire experts to check the records.

　　C. Confirm the identity of the users. D. Give guidance to citizen scientists.

　　【答案】32. B 33. C 34. C 35. D

　　【解析】

　　【導語】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了斯坦福大學的一項研究發現，數字生物多樣性記錄存在偏見，建議應用程序引導公民科學家獲取更好的數據。

　　【32題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第一段“Today, most records of biodiversity are often in the form of photos, videos, and other digital records. (今天，大多數生物多樣性記錄通常以照片、視頻和其他數字記錄的形式出現。)”可知，現在收集的物種記錄大多是以電子形式存在的。故選B。

　　【33題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第二段“These observations now outnumber the primary data that comes from physical specimens (標本), and since we are increasingly using observational data to investigate how species are responding to global change, I wanted to know: Are they usable? (這些觀察結果現在超過了來自物理標本的原始數據，而且由于我們越來越多地使用觀察數據來研究物種如何應對全球變化，我想知道：它們有用嗎?)”和第四段““We were particularly interested in exploring the aspects of sampling that tend to bias (使有偏差) data, like the greater likelihood of a citizen scientist to take a picture of a flowering plant instead of the grass right next to it,” said Daru. (Daru說“我們特別感興趣的是探索取樣容易產生數據偏差的方面，比如公民科學家更有可能拍攝開花植物的照片，而不是它旁邊的草。”)”可知，Daru的研究聚焦于觀察數據，即人們通過移動應用記錄的物種觀察數據。故選C。

　　【34題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第四段““We were particularly interested in exploring the aspects of sampling that tend to bias (使有偏差) data, like the greater likelihood of a citizen scientist to take a picture of a flowering plant instead of the grass right next to it,” said Daru. (Daru說“我們特別感興趣的是探索取樣容易產生數據偏差的方面，比如公民科學家更有可能拍攝開花植物的照片，而不是它旁邊的草。”)”以及第五段“This makes sense because the people who get observational biodiversity data on mobile devices are often citizen scientists recording their encounters with species in areas nearby.( 這是有道理的，因為在移動設備上獲得觀察生物多樣性數據的人通常是公民科學家，他們記錄了他們在附近地區與物種的接觸。)”可知，導致數據偏差的原因是采樣方式的不當。故選C。

　　【35題詳解】

　　推理判斷題。根據最后一段“Biodiversity apps can use our study results to inform users of oversampled areas and lead them to places — and even species — that are not well-sampled. To improve the quality of observational data, biodiversity apps can also encourage users to have an expert confirm the identification of their uploaded image. (生物多樣性應用程序可以使用我們的`研究結果來告知用戶樣本過多的地區，并將他們引導到樣本不足的地方，甚至是物種。為了提高觀測數據的質量，生物多樣性應用程序還可以鼓勵用戶讓專家確認他們上傳的圖像的身份。)”可知，Daru 建議生物多樣性應用應該給公民科學家提供指導。故選D。

　　I keep two reference books close-by on my desk: dictionary and thesaurus (同義詞詞典). I dont trust my laptops spellchecker. ____37____ Of course, these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and thesauruses, but Im old-fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pages I can leaf through with my fingers. I use the Concise Oxford Dictionary and the Collins Thesaurus.

　　____38____ It should give you a precise definition of each word, thus differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar, but not identical. It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.

　　In addition, I have an old two-volume copy of the Shorter Oxford Dictionary, picked up a few years ago in a bookshop sale for just 99 pence. Of course, with its 2,672 pages, its not exactly short. It contains around 163,000 words, plus word combinations and idiomatic phrases. ____39____ However, if I need to check the origin of a word or to look up examples of its usage, theres nothing better.

　　For well over a hundred years the most influential English dictionary was Samuel Johnsons Dictionary of the English Language published in 1755. "To make dictionaries is dull (乏味) work," wrote Johnson, illustrating one definition of "dull". ____40____ A few minutes spent casting your eye over a page or two can be a rewarding experience.

　　A. I dont often use this dictionary.

　　B. It takes no account of the context.

　　C. But I still dont want to replace them.

　　上文“If you want to be published, it’s vital to submit a perfect, professionally presented manuscript(如果你想發表，提交一份完美的、專業的手稿是至關重要的)”提到了完美的、專業的手稿的重要性，手稿中不能有語法和拼寫錯誤是專業的手稿的要求之一。F選項“That means good grammar and no spelling mistakes.(這意味著語法正確，沒有拼寫錯誤。)”是對手稿要求的進一步解釋說明，符合題意。故選F項。

　　【37題詳解】

　　上文“I don’t trust my laptop’s spellchecker.(我不相信我筆記本電腦的拼寫檢查器。)”提到了作者不相信電腦的拼寫檢查器;下文“Of course, these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and thesauruses, but I’m old-fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pages I can leaf through with my fingers.(當然，現在有很多在線詞典和同義詞庫，但我是一個守舊的人，更喜歡精裝的書和能用手指翻閱的書頁。)”提到了作者更喜歡實體書和能用手指翻閱的書頁，說明電子設備可能不會考慮上下文，所以B選項“It takes no account of the context.(它不考慮上下文。)”解釋了上文的原因，具有承上啟下的作用。故選B項。

　　【38題詳解】

　　下文“It should give you a precise definition of each word, thus differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar, but not identical. It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.(它應該給出每個單詞的精確定義，從而將其與其他含義相似但不相同的單詞區分開來。它通常還會顯示單詞的發音。)”提到了字典的功能，E選項“Of course, a dictionary is not only for spelling.(當然，字典不僅僅是用來拼寫的。)”提到了字典的部分功能，能引起下文內容。故選E項。

　　【39題詳解】

　　下文“However, if I need to check the origin of a word or to look up examples of its usage, there’s nothing better.(然而，如果我需要檢查一個單詞的來源或查找其用法的例子，沒有什么比這更好的了。)”提到了字典的使用情況，A選項“I don’t often use this dictionary.(我不經常用這本字典。)”是對字典使用頻率的說明，與下文構成轉折關系。故選A項。

　　【40題詳解】

　　上文“ “To make dictionaries is dull (乏味) work, ” wrote Johnson, illustrating one definition of ”dull".(約翰遜在解釋“dull”的一個定義時寫道：“編字典是件無聊的工作(乏味)。”)”提到了編寫字典是件乏味的工作，下文“A few minutes spent casting your eye over a page or two can be a rewarding experience.(花幾分鐘的時間瀏覽一兩頁是一種有益的體驗。)”提到瀏覽字典也是一種閱讀的樂趣，D選項“But a dictionary can be a pleasure to read.(但是一本字典讀起來是一種樂趣。)”是作者對字典的評價，與上文的“乏味”形成對比，與上文構成轉折關系。故選D項。

　　【58題詳解】

　　考查非謂語動詞。句意：溫室在溫暖日子里開放，利用液壓系統為內部植物提供陽光和通風。use sth. to do sth.為固定搭配，表示“使用某物去做某事”，所以空處應用動詞不定式形式作賓語補足語。故填to give。

　　【63題詳解】

　　考查介詞。句意：Mark Woodruff補充說：“這是當代設計的最高成就，在絲綢之路的盡頭，中國亞熱帶西南部的植物群從溫帶的歐洲穿過山脈、干旱的土地和高山牧場，這些植物從亞洲的原生棲息地帶到英國，定義了英國園藝的豐富和榮耀。”根據句意可知，空處指的是“作為”，應用介詞as。故填as。

　　【64題詳解】

　　考查定語從句。句意：Mark Woodruff補充說：“這是當代設計的最高成就，在絲綢之路的盡頭，中國亞熱帶西南部的植物群從溫帶的歐洲穿過山脈、干旱的土地和高山牧場，這些植物從亞洲的原生棲息地帶到英國，定義了英國園藝的豐富和榮耀。”空處引導限制性定語從句，修飾先行詞design，先行詞指物，關系詞在定語從句中作主語，用關系代詞which或that引導從句。故填which/that。

　　67. 閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。

　　I met Gunter on a cold, wet and unforgettable evening in September. I had planned to fly to Vienna and take a bus to Prague for a conference. Due to a big storm, my flight had been delayed by an hour and a half. I touched down in Vienna just 30 minutes before the departure of the last bus to Prague. The moment I got off the plane, I ran like crazy through the airport building and jumped into the first taxi on the rank without a second thought.

　　That was when I met Gunter. I told him where I was going, but he said he hadnt heard of the bus station. I thought my pronunciation was the problem, so I explained again more slowly, but he still looked confused. When I was about to give up, Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend. After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century, Gunter put his phone down and started the car.

　　Finally, with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station. Thankfully, there was a long queue (隊列) still waiting to board the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, turned around, and looked at me with a big smile on his face. "We made it," he said.

　　Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet. I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard. He tried it several times, but the card machine just did not play along. A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out.

　　At this moment, Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine. I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the machine, and popped my card in, only to read the message: "Out of order. Sorry."

　　注意：

　　【答案】參考范文

　　Para 1

　　I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news. He looked at me in disbelief, asking me what to do. Flashing him another apologetic smile, I begged him for a delayed payment. “If I miss this last bus to Prague, I’ll be late for the conference which is so important that I can’t afford to miss it!” I explained. “May I have your phone number? I will call you and return the money I owe you. I promise I will keep my word or you keep my watch!” I added, handing him my watch as well as my business card. Gunter accepted my business card but rejected my watch. He wrote down his phone number and gave it to me. “Just keep your promise, Sir.” A feeling of gratitude washed over me as I heard his words. Giving him a firm handshake, I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the bus, and jumped onto it just before its departure.I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news.

　　Para 2

　　Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised. He picked me up at the bus station where he had dropped me off four days before. Beaming a warm smile at him, I gave him a big hug the moment I saw him. We chatted happily on the way to the airport. I told him that thanks to his generosity and timely help, everything had gone smoothly. When he stopped his taxi outside the airport, I paid him for the “double car ride”, back and forth from the airport to the bus station, together with a generous tip that he turned down. I also gave him an attractive souvenir I had bought at Prague, which he accepted with delight. We became good friends and kept in touch with each other regularly. I felt blessed to have such a warm-hearted friend like Gunter.Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised.

　　【解析】

　　【導語】本文以人物為線索展開，講述了作者在一次因風暴延誤的旅途中，匆忙搭乘出租車前往車站趕最后一班去布拉格的公共汽車。司機岡特不熟悉車站位置，通過電話求助后順利抵達。到達時作者卻發現自己沒帶現金，嘗試用葡萄牙銀行卡支付沒有成功，而車站的取款機也故障了。

　　②由第二段首句內容“四天后，當我回到維也納時，我按照承諾給岡特打了電話。”可知，第二段可描寫作者付費給岡特，并向對方表示感激，兩人成為了好朋友。

　　2.續寫線索：作者給出解決辦法——承諾還錢——岡特同意——作者登上公共汽車——履行承諾還錢——兩人成為朋友

　　【解析】

　　【原文】W: Good morning, everyone. This lesson is a part of our leadership series. Let me start by sharing a story of Richard Rochester, one of the most successful businessmen in Britain. Years ago, I was given the task of organizing a conference in the south of England. I chose a five-star hotel owned by Rochester as the venue. Susan, the receptionist, helped me arrange everything perfectly. Once when we were chatting, I asked Susan if she’d ever met Mr. Rochester. She said yes. Shortly after Mr. Rochester bought the hotel, he made an appointment to see the hotel manager. When he arrived, the first person he met was Susan, who was cleaning the carpet. He chatted with Susan for 30 minutes before keeping his appointment with the manager. He spent all day at the hotel talking with each member of the staff, from the top guy to the lady who cleaned the toilets. Six months later, Mr. Rochester paid another visit. Susan had been promoted to receptionist, but he recognized her immediately and addressed her by name. He even remembered that she had a little girl and what her name was. Now, I don’t believe that Richard Rochester has that good memory. He must have written a lot of notes after his first visit and read them over again before that second visit. It’s time-consuming, but it shows the importance he places on human relationships. I think that’s one of the secrets of his success.

　　【1題詳解】

　　細節理解題。通讀全文，根據文章所給出的四種方案中的“Walk Duration (步行時間)”部分比較可知，“Walk 4 — Photographic Walk in Kilbrannish Forest (步行4——基爾布蘭尼什森林攝影步行)”的步行時間是1.5小時，用時最短。故選D項。

　　Do you ever get to the train station and realize you forgot to bring something to read? Yes, we all have our phones, but many of us still like to go old school and read something printed.

　　Well, there’s a kiosk (小亭) for that. In the San Francisco Bay Area, at least.

　　“You enter the fare gates (檢票口) and you’ll see a kiosk that is lit up and it tells you can get a one-minute, a three-minute, or a five-minute story,” says Alicia Trost, the chief communications officer for the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit — known as BART. “You choose which length you want and it gives you a receipt-like short story.”

　　It’s that simple. Riders have printed nearly 20,000 short stories and poems since the program was launched last March. Some are classic short stories, and some are new original works.

　　Trost also wants to introduce local writers to local riders. “We wanted to do something where we do a call to artists in the Bay Area to submit stories for a contest,” Trost says. “And as of right now, we’ve received about 120 submissions. The winning stories would go into our kiosk and then you would be a published artist.”

　　Ridership on transit (交通) systems across the country has been down the past half century, so could short stories save transit?

　　Trost thinks so.

　　“At the end of the day all transit agencies right now are doing everything they can to improve the rider experience. So I absolutely think we will get more riders just because of short stories,” she says.

　　And you’ll never be without something to read.

　　4. Why did BART start the kiosk program?

　　A. To promote the local culture. B. To discourage phone use.

　　C. To meet passengers’ needs. D. To reduce its running costs.

　　5. How are the stories categorized in the kiosk?

　　A. By popularity. B. By length.

　　C. By theme. D. By language.

　　6. What has Trost been doing recently?

　　A. Organizing a story contest. B. Doing a survey of customers.

　　C. Choosing a print publisher. D. Conducting interviews with artists.

　　7. What is Trost’s opinion about BART’s future?

　　A. It will close down. B. Its profits will decline.

　　C. It will expand nationwide. D. Its ridership will increase.

　　【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. D

　　【解析】

　　【導語】本文是一篇新聞報道。主要報道了舊金山灣區捷運系統(BART)推出自動售貨亭提供短篇故事打印服務，旨在滿足乘客閱讀需求，提升出行體驗，Trost認為此舉措能吸引更多乘客，對BART的未來持樂觀態度，預期乘客量將會增長。

　　【4題詳解】

　　推理判斷題。根據第三段““You enter the fare gates (檢票口) and you’ll see a kiosk that is lit up and it tells you can get a one-minute, a three-minute, or a five-minute story,” says Alicia Trost, the chief communications officer for the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit - known as BART. “You choose which length you want and it gives you a receipt-like short story.”(舊金山灣區捷運系統（BART）首席通訊官Alicia Trost表示：“你進入檢票口，會看到一個亮著燈的信息亭，它告訴你可以得到一分鐘、三分鐘或五分鐘的報道。你可以選擇你想要的長度，它會給你一個類似收據的短篇故事。”)”可知，BART啟動信息亭是為了滿足乘客在乘車過程中的閱讀需求，為他們提供不同長度的短篇故事或詩歌來打發時間。故選C項。

　　【5題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第三段“You choose which length you want and it gives you a receipt-like short story.(你可以選擇你想要的長度，它會給你一個類似收據的短篇故事)”可知，信息亭中的故事按長度分類，乘客可以根據自己的需求選擇不同長度的故事。故選B項。

　　【6題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第五段“We wanted to do something where we do a call to artists in the Bay Area to submit stories for a contest,(我們想做一些事情，呼吁灣區的藝術家為比賽提交故事)”以及第六段“The winning stories would go into our kiosk and then you would be a published artist.(獲獎故事會進入我們的書報亭，然后你就會成為一名出版藝術家)”可知，Trost最近在組織一個故事競賽，向灣區的藝術家征集故事，獲勝作品將被放入書報亭供乘客閱讀。故選A項。

　　【7題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據倒數第二段““At the end of the day all transit agencies right now are doing everything they can to improve the rider experience. So I absolutely think we will get more riders just because of short stories,” she says.(她說：“歸根結底，所有的交通機構現在都在盡一切努力改善乘客體驗。所以我絕對認為，我們會因為短篇小說而吸引更多的乘客。”)”可知，Trost認為通過提升乘客體驗，包括提供短篇故事閱讀服務，BART可以吸引更多的乘客，乘客量將會增加。故選D項。

　　C

　　We all know fresh is best when it comes to food. However, most produce at the store went through weeks of travel and covered hundreds of miles before reaching the table. While farmer’s markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm (BMF) shortens it even more.

　　BMF is an indoor garden system. It can be set up for a family. Additionally, it could serve a larger audience such as a hospital, restaurant or school. The innovative design requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens.

　　Specifically, it’s a farm that relies on new technology. By connecting through the Cloud, BMF is remotely monitored. Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants. Rather than watering rows of soil, the system provides just the right amount to each plant. After harvest, users simply replace the plants with a new pre-seeded pod (容器) to get the next growth cycle started.

　　Moreover, having a system in the same building where it’s eaten means zero emissions (排放) from transporting plants from soil to salad. In addition, there’s no need for pesticides and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the surrounding environment.

　　BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives. About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic. “We are passionate about reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment,” said a BMF employee.

　　8. What can be learned about BMF from paragraph 1?

　　A. It guarantees the variety of food. B. It requires day-to-day care.

　　C. It cuts the farm-to-table distance. D. It relies on farmer’s markets.

　　9. What information does the convenient app offer?

　　A. Real-time weather changes. B. Current condition of the plants.

　　C. Chemical pollutants in the soil. D. Availability of pre-seeded pods.

　　10. What can be concluded about BMF employees?

　　A. They have a great passion for sports.

　　B. They are devoted to community service.

　　C. They are fond of sharing daily experiences.

　　D. They have a strong environmental awareness.

　　11. What does the text mainly talk about?

　　A. BMF’s major strengths. B. BMF’s general management.

　　C. BMF’s global influence. D. BMF’s technical standards.

　　【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A

　　【8題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第一段“While farmer’s markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm (BMF) shortens it even more. (雖然農貿市場是減少旅程的可靠選擇，但巴比倫微型農場（BMF）甚至縮短了旅程)”可知，巴比倫微型農場（BMF）進一步縮短了從農場到餐桌的距離。故選C。

　　【9題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據第三段“Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. (此外，還有一個便捷的應用程序，可以實時提供增長數據)”可知，這個便捷的應用程序提供了植物生長的實時數據。故選B。

　　【10題詳解】

　　推理判斷題。根據最后一段“BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives. About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic. “We are passionate about reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment,” said a BMF employee. (BMF員工在日常生活中追求可持續發展。大約一半的人步行或騎自行車上班。在辦公室里，他們通過限制垃圾桶和避免一次性塑料來鼓勵回收和減少浪費。BMF的一名員工表示：“我們熱衷于減少環境中的廢物、碳和化學品。”)”可知，BMF員工具有強烈的環保意識。故選D。

　　【11題詳解】

　　主旨大意題。根據第一段“While farmer’s markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm (BMF) shortens it even more. (雖然農貿市場是減少旅程的可靠選擇，但巴比倫微型農場（BMF）甚至縮短了旅程)”、第三段“By connecting through the Cloud, BMF is remotely monitored. Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants. Rather than watering rows of soil, the system provides just the right amount to each plant. (通過云連接，對BMF進行遠程監控。此外，還有一個方便的應用程序可以實時提供不斷增長的數據。由于該系統是自動化的，因此大大減少了種植植物所需的水量。該系統不是給一排排土壤澆水，而是為每株植物提供合適的水量)”以及最后一段“BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives. About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic. “We are passionate about reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment,” said a BMF employee.

　　Given the astonishing potential of AI to transform our lives, we all need to take action to deal with our AI-powered future, and this is where AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence comes in. This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the forthcoming AI revolution (變革).

　　In the wrong hands, such a book could prove as complicated to process as the computer code (代碼) that powers AI but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades’ professional experience translating the heady into the understandable. She writes from the practical angle of a business person rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, by the close, will make you feel almost as smart as AI.

　　As we soon come to learn from AI by Design, AI is already super-smart and will become more capable, moving from the current generation of “narrow-AI” to Artificial General Intelligence. From there, Campbell says, will come Artificial Dominant Intelligence. This is why Campbell has set out to raise awareness of AI and its future now-several decades before these developments are expected to take place. She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse.

　　Campbell’s point is to wake up those responsible for AI-the technology companies and world leaders-so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it. She explains we are at a “tipping point” in history and must act now to prevent an extinction-level event for humanity. We need to consider how we want our future with AI to pan out. Such structured thinking, followed by global regulation, will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall.

　　AI will affect us all, and if you only read one book on the subject, this is it.

　　12. What does the phrase “In the wrong hands” in paragraph 2 probably mean?

　　A. If read by someone poorly educated. B. If reviewed by someone ill-intentioned.

　　C. If written by someone less competent. D. If translated by someone unacademic.

　　13. What is a feature of AI by Design according to the text?

　　A. It is packed with complex codes. B. It adopts a down-to-earth writing style.

　　C. It provides step-by-step instructions. D. It is intended for AI professionals.

　　14. What does Campbell urge people to do regarding AI development?

　　A. Observe existing regulations on it.

　　B. Reconsider expert opinions about it.

　　C. Make joint efforts to keep it under control.

　　D. Learn from prior experience to slow it down.

　　15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?

　　A. To recommend a book on AI. B. To give a brief account of AI history.

　　C. To clarify the definition of AI. D. To honor an outstanding AI expert.

　　【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. A

　　【解析】

　　【導語】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了Catriona Campbell所著AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence一書。該書作為應對AI革命挑戰的實用指南，以商業視角闡述AI發展現狀與前景，強調控制AI的重要性，呼吁各界協同確保人工智能安全發展，以防潛在危機。

　　【12題詳解】

　　詞句猜測題。根據文章第二段“such a book could prove as complicated to process as the computer code (代碼) that powers AI but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades professional experience translating the heady into the understandable. She writes from the practical angle of a business person rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, by the close, will make you feel almost as smart as AI. (這樣一本書可能會像驅動人工智能的計算機代碼一樣復雜，但值得慶幸的是，坎貝爾有20多年的專業經驗，可以將令人興奮的內容轉化為可理解的內容。她從商業人士的實際角度而不是學者的角度出發，撰寫了一本非常通俗易懂、內容豐富的指南，讀完后會讓你覺得自己幾乎和人工智能一樣聰明)”可知，坎貝爾撰寫的這本書是通俗易懂的，如果別人寫這本書的話可能就不是這樣了，推測劃線短語表示 “如果是由能力較差的人寫的”。故選C項。

　　【14題詳解】

　　細節理解題。根據文章倒數第二段“She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse. (她說，我們必須保持對人工智能的控制，否則就有被邊緣化甚至更糟的風險)”和文章最后一段“We need to consider how we want our future with AI to pan out. Such structured thinking, followed by global regulation, will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall. (我們需要考慮我們希望人工智能的未來如何發展。這種結構化的思維，加上全球監管，將使我們走向偉大，而不是走向衰敗)”可知，坎貝爾敦促人們保持對人工智能的控制，考慮人工智能的未來應如何發展，所以關于人工智能的發展，坎貝爾敦促人們共同努力將其控制住。故選C項。

　　●Choose mindfully. Overvisited destinations are that way for a reason: they’re special. With so many online posts featuring the same places, it’s easy to feel like you’re missing out. Go somewhere only when the landscape, culture or food deeply draws you. ___17___

　　●Get creative. The best way to ease pressure on over-touristed destinations is to go somewhere else. Though overtourism is described as a problem affecting the entire world, it’s actually concentrated to a small number of extremely popular spots. That means you have tons of less-visited options to choose from. ___18___ Why not try a regional alternative or check out a popular destination’s lesser-known sights?

　　●___19___ Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping major holidays or rush hour. You’ll compete with fewer tourists, save money, experience a different side of a popular place, and boost the economy when tourism is traditionally slower.

　　Visiting a place that others call home is a privilege (榮幸). Do your part to preserve what makes a destination special in the first place. ___20___ You may be amazed how much closer you’ll feel to the people there.

　　A. Visit during off-peak times.

　　B. So, should we stop traveling?

　　C. Travel for you and no one else.

　　D. Can overtourism be avoided then?

　　E. You can still find relatively undiscovered places.

　　F. You’ll find yourself virtually alone, or close to it.

　　G. Consider giving back to the communities you’re visiting.

　　【答案】16. B 17. C 18. E 19. A 20. G

　　【導語】本文為一篇說明文，介紹了如何避免“過度旅游”的現象。

　　【16題詳解】

　　前文“Travel promotes understanding, expands our minds, makes us better people, and boosts local economies and communities, but the rapid growth of travel has led to overtourism in certain regions and destinations.(旅游促進理解，擴展我們的思想，使我們成為更好的人，促進當地經濟和社區，但旅游業的快速發展導致了某些地區和目的地的過度旅游)”表明旅游帶來了一些問題，后文“The loss of what travel offers would be unacceptable in today’s world.(在當今世界，失去旅行所能提供的東西將是不可接受的)”表示不能失去旅行，結合后文“Certainly not.(當然不)”可知，空處提問能否停止旅行，D選項“那么，我們應該停止旅行嗎？”符合語境。故選B。

　　【17題詳解】

　　前文“Overvisited destinations are that way for a reason: they’re special. With so many online posts featuring the same places, it’s easy to feel like you’re missing out. Go somewhere only when the landscape, culture or food deeply draws you.(游客過多的目的地是有原因的：它們很特別。網上有這么多關于同一個地方的帖子，很容易讓你覺得你錯過了。只有當風景、文化或食物深深吸引你時，才去某個地方)”表明不要跟風旅游，C選項“為你而不是其他人旅行”表明要關注自己在旅行時的感受，忠實自己的感受，不用管其余的建議，符合語境。故選C。

　　【18題詳解】

　　前文“That means you have tons of less-visited options to choose from.(這意味著你有很多不太受歡迎的選擇)及后文“Why not try a regional alternative or check out a popular destination’s lesser-known sights?( 為什么不嘗試一個地區性的選擇，或者看看一個熱門目的地不太為人所知的景點呢)”提出建議，可以選擇一些冷門的景點，E選項“你仍然可以找到相對未被發現的地方”符合語境。故選E。

　　19題詳解】

　　空處為小標題，根據后文“Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping major holidays or rush hour.(通過跳過重大節假日或高峰時間來最小化影響并最大化體驗)”表示旅游時要注意避開高峰期，選擇合適的時間，A選項“在非高峰時間參觀”概括本段內容。故選A。

　　【20題詳解】

　　前文“Do your part to preserve what makes a destination special in the first place.(盡你的一份力，從一開始就保護一個目的地的特別之處)”表明旅游時應保護旅游景點，后文“You may be amazed how much closer you’ll feel to the people there.(你可能會驚訝地發現你和那里的人感覺如此親近)”表示這樣做的感受，G選項“考慮回饋你所訪問的社區”承上啟下，符合語境。故選G。

　　【36題詳解】

　　考查定語從句。句意：為了紀念被譽為“亞洲莎士比亞”的湯顯祖，中國文化元素為莎士比亞的故鄉——埃文河畔的斯特拉特福增添了國際化的色彩。這里為定語從句的關系詞，先行詞為“Tang Xianzu”，在非限制性定語從句中擔當主語，表示人，用關系代詞who引導。故填who。

　　【41題詳解】

　　考查時態和語態。句意：兩年后，一座六米高的亭子在菲斯花園落成，該花園距離莎士比亞故居僅十分鐘步行路程，其靈感來自《牡丹亭》。這里為本句謂語動詞，根據時間狀語“Two years later”可知，本句時態為一般過去時；主語為“a six-meter-tall pavilion”，單數，和動詞“build”之間為被動關系，所以用被動語態。故填was built。

　　【42題詳解】

　　考查名詞。句意：Edmondson說，這些文化元素提高了斯特拉特福德的國際知名度，并補充說，游客們穿過故居花園時，常常驚訝于這兩位偉大作家之間的聯系。形容詞international后接名詞形式，visibility“知名度”為不可數名詞作賓語。故填visibility。

　　47. 閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。

　　I met Gunter on a cold, wet and unforgettable evening in September. I had planned to fly to Vienna and take a bus to Prague for a conference. Due to a big storm, my flight had been delayed by an hour and a half. I touched down in Vienna just 30 minutes before the departure of the last bus to Prague. The moment I got off the plane, I ran like crazy through the airport building and jumped into the first taxi on the rank without a second thought.

　　That was when I met Gunter. I told him where I was going, but he said he hadnt heard of the bus station. I thought my pronunciation was the problem, so I explained again more slowly, but he still looked confused. When I was about to give up, Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend. After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century, Gunter put his phone down and started the car.

　　Finally, with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station. Thankfully, there was a long queue (隊列) still waiting to board the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, turned around, and looked at me with a big smile on his face. "We made it," he said.

　　Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet. I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard. He tried it several times, but the card machine just did not play along. A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out.

　　At this moment, Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine. I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the machine, and popped my card in, only to read the message: "Out of order. Sorry."

　　注意：

　　Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised.

　　______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

　　【答案】參考范文

　　Para 1

　　I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news. He looked at me in disbelief, asking me what to do. Flashing him another apologetic smile, I begged him for a delayed payment. “If I miss this last bus to Prague, I’ll be late for the conference which is so important that I can’t afford to miss it!” I explained. “May I have your phone number? I will call you and return the money I owe you. I promise I will keep my word or you keep my watch!” I added, handing him my watch as well as my business card. Gunter accepted my business card but rejected my watch. He wrote down his phone number and gave it to me. “Just keep your promise, Sir.” A feeling of gratitude washed over me as I heard his words. Giving him a firm handshake, I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the bus, and jumped onto it just before its departure.

　　Para 2

　　Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised. He picked me up at the bus station where he had dropped me off four days before. Beaming a warm smile at him, I gave him a big hug the moment I saw him. We chatted happily on the way to the airport. I told him that thanks to his generosity and timely help, everything had gone smoothly. When he stopped his taxi outside the airport, I paid him for the “double car ride”, back and forth from the airport to the bus station, together with a generous tip that he turned down. I also gave him an attractive souvenir I had bought at Prague, which he accepted with delight. We became good friends and kept in touch with each other regularly. I felt blessed to have such a warm-hearted friend like Gunter.

　　【解析】

　　【導語】本文以人物為線索展開，講述了作者在一次因風暴延誤的旅途中，匆忙搭乘出租車前往車站趕最后一班去布拉格的公共汽車。司機岡特不熟悉車站位置，通過電話求助后順利抵達。到達時作者卻發現自己沒帶現金，嘗試用葡萄牙銀行卡支付沒有成功，而車站的取款機也故障了。

　　【詳解】1.段落續寫：

　　①由第一段首句內容“我跑回到岡特那里，告訴他這個壞消息。”可知，第一段可描寫作者留下岡特的電話，承諾會還錢給對方，岡特同意，最終作者及時登上了公共汽車。

　　②由第二段首句內容“四天后，當我回到維也納時，我按照承諾給岡特打了電話。”可知，第二段可描寫作者付費給岡特，并向對方表示感激，兩人成為了好朋友。

　　2.續寫線索：作者給出解決辦法——承諾還錢——岡特同意——作者登上公共汽車——履行承諾還錢——兩人成為朋友
