A篇:21. C 根据第三个标题Eden Village Camp下的where campers can pick fresh fruit and vegetables
when hunger strikes between meals 可知答案为C。在Eden Village Camp里,你能体验采摘新鲜水果和蔬菜(的乐趣)
22.C 根据夏令营活动提供的时间安排可知,只有Eden Village Camp的 “June 27-Aug. 12” 和 Timber Lake Camp 的 “June 26-Aug. 15” 符合8月10日度假的要求,故答案为C项
23 B 根据Iroquois Springs 下的 “as well as horseback riding, theater and extensive outdoor adventure activities” 可知选B项
24 A 根据Camp Dewolfe 下的 “Sailing…” 和 “six-day session $495”
B 篇 本文讲述了伯父的离世让我意识到了自己尚不清楚父母对他们自己的后事有什么要 求。 25 B 根据文章第一段内容, 我的父母已经快八十了,尽管身体健康,但是我还是担心会收到他们不好的消息。
26 D 根据第二段“The news made my mind go blank”得知叔叔去世的消息,我的脑袋一片空白,因此应该是震惊(shocked)了。
27.C根据第四段“Reese’s memorial service was small with only family and perhaps a dozen of his friends. The funeral was attended by an even smaller number”可知参加葬礼的人并不多。
28. A根据最后一段内容,我不知道父母对于自己的后事有什么要求,想要和他们谈谈,以及“These are going to be difficult conversations, but I know I need to have them”可知正确选项为A C篇
29. D 根据第三段段的第三句 “Many people did not know about the change because of communication problems back then. Some people continued to celebrate New Year’s Day on April 1” 可知,有些人继续按原来的时间庆祝新年,是因为他们不知道时间发生了变化。因此 D 项正确
30 B 根据第四段第一句,“In the United States, April Fools’ Day is just a day of joking and playing tricks on friends.” 可知,美国人过愚人节是为了玩的开心和跟朋友开玩笑。因此, B为正确选项 31 A词义猜测题。根据“A few years ago, on April 1, Starbucks announced it was introducing new coffee cup sizes”可知,星巴克宣布在愚人节推出新的咖啡杯,所以可以推测得出一些公司也加入到了愚人节的活动中来。因此“get it in”的意思是“加入”
32 C通读全文可知,作者写写篇文章是为了节省愚人节的历史以及各国过愚人节的情况,所以C项符合题意。 D篇
33 C 根据第二段的内容可知,宣布宝马,英特尔和移动眼这三家公司的合作时间正巧是美国官员正在调查一起撞车事故的时候,在该事故中,自动驾车技术难辞其咎(could have contributed), 因此选 34 A 根据第三段的“They promised to make the results of the research available to other car makers”可知,他们将让其他的汽车生产厂家使用他们的研究成果,以帮助确定无人驾驶车辆的使用标准。因此推断 A 项正确
35 D 最后一段说到这三家公司合作的早期工作目标:宝马公司计划在今年演示高端自动驾驶技术,2018年在其他汽车上进行更多的测试。因此推断选 D ,将在今年展示自动驾驶的宝马车。
完形填空:
41下文提到她后来闻名世界,这说明她经历这场高烧之后活了下来。因此survive幸存,符合语境 42根据第二段第二句中的into the dark prison cell 可知,这次高烧使得女婴双目失明,再也看不见东西了。故选
43由最后一段可知,她还在上大学时,就在写作方面获得了成功。由此可推知,她成为一位著名的作家(author)
44由于发高烧导致失聪和失明,因此throw into a dark prison cell 更形象地说明她的遭遇---她仿佛被抛入黑暗的牢狱里。
45上文提到“她仿佛被抛入黑暗的牢狱里”,下文接着提到“她不是那种轻易放弃的人”,因此用luckily(幸好)来承接上下文最为合适。
46由下文几句的描述可知,她开始了解世界上的人和物。这表明她开始探索(explore)世界
47上文提到她失去了听觉和视觉,由下文可中的touched,smelled和feeling等词可知,她利用自己的其他的感官(sense)来探索世界
48考察固定短语搭配come across,她所遇到的一切
49由“通过摸他们的脸”可推出,这应该是盲人识别(recognize)事物的一种方式
50由feeling可以排除words和gestures,而eyes包含在faces里面,不能与其并列,因此答案为clothes。 51由下文的different plants和the ground under her feet 可知,她应该在花园(garden)里
52这一段作者主要想表达小女孩的聪明。由下面举例可以看出,这些手势都是小女孩自己发明(invent)的。
53由上句中的signs可知这只是“手势语”,因此她想吃面包时,并不是真正的去切面包、涂黄油,而只是假装(pretend)这个动作。
54 But 一词表示转折,前面主要讲述小女孩的聪明,而下一段讲述她遭受的挫折,说明她也有自己的“局限性”
55由上文的“她发现自己与别人不同”,下半句中的“在房间里又踢又喊”,以及下一句中的anger均可推出那时她很生气(angry)
56上一句提到她又哭又闹,下一句又提到“她的愤怒越来越强烈”,由此可知她所遭受的挫折越来越大,故增长(grew)符合语境
57 由下文提到的她各个方面的成就可知,在老师的帮助下她证明(prove)了自己的杰出 58 上文提到她写的书获得了巨大的成功,因此应该是挣(earn)了足够多的钱买了自己的房子 59 本句意为:她走遍全国各地,做了一场又一场的演讲。tour 游览,走遍,符合语境
60 由空前的also可知,此处讲述的仍旧是她所取得的成就。选项中只有honors(荣誉)可以表达此意。

第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分 40分)
第一节 (共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
On a hot summer day, a soft drink can really take away your thirst.At home, at school, in the park or at the movies—you can find one almost anywhere.
Carbonated(碳酸的)
You can see bubbles in these! Of all soft drinks sold, about 75 percent are carbonated.But be careful,
carbonated soft drinks have lots of sugar and caffeine.Caffeine is not very good for you in the summer, because it takes water out of your body.And the sugar can make you overweight if you drink too much.
Fruit juice
There are different kinds of juice.One kind is made only from fresh fruit.This kind of fruit juice may
not taste sweet enough for some people, but it is nutritious.Another kind of fruit juice tastes good but has lots of sugar in it.Many young people buy this kind because the advertisements are good.It is bad for your teeth and bones to drink lots of this.
Energy drinks
These kinds of drinks have caffeine and things that make people get excited in them.They are
sometimes called “party drinks”.Doctors say that if you drink too much of this kind, you may have a heart attack.
Bottled water
We have lots of different kinds of bottled water, such as mineral water, purified water and distilled(蒸
馏的) water.They are clean and easy to drink.But it is best not to drink very cold water.It may make your stomach feel bad.
Sports drinks
Most of these have funny names like “Scream” and “G-Vital”.They have lots of vitamins and minerals
in them.After you play sports, you may want to drink one of these.
But if you just spend your summer holiday sitting around watching TV, you won’t need them at all!
21.Which of the following is NOT suitable for you to take if you go climbing?
A.Carbonated soft drinks. C.Bottled water.
