Since his early childhood, G. A. Minton has always been a faithful fan of science fiction and horror. Whenever a scary movie was playing at the local theatre, he was there in attendance with his friends, loudly screaming in terror.
In his everyday life, Minton likes playing the game of golf most, having lettered on his high school golf team. In addition to writing, he also enjoys reading, traveling, fishing, swimming, working out, listening to hard rock music, and watching great movies－especially those about horror, science fiction, mystery and comedy.
Strangely enough, it was only after Minton was knocked down by a drunk driver and suffered a closed-head injury that he developed a new found passion for writing. After the car accident, he suffered from both memory loss and problems communicating with others, which frustrated him to no end. He had to go to see his doctor on a regular basis and for weeks he had to take medicine used by patients who are suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. Luckily, his brain slowly began to mend itself.
At the end of the healing process, something was very different. He noticed that he had developed a strong urge to write down a story that had formed in his mind. That’s how his first novel Trisomy XXI was born. He penned（写作）it in only three months. He began with chapter one and wrote in a freestyle manner—almost in a stream of consciousness. The narrative flowed freely from his vivid imagination, creating a thrilling tale of terror that is formed from an ordered sequence of events.
One could think that the damaged neuronshad rearranged themselves into a different pattern, and thus （神经元）improving the creative elements in his brain. Besides, stranger things have happened! He has recently completed his second novel. Currently, his brain is busy at work, seriously processing the text for another -story of the terror-one that will both entertain and horrify its unsuspecting reader! 4. From Paragraph 2, we know that G. A. Minion .
A. likes writing best in high school B. is a man of multiple interests C. wants to become a golf player D. hopes to make a horror movie
5. What happened to Minton after the accident?
A. His memory was improved. B. His brain was damaged permanently. C. His creative ability was inspired. D. He suffered from Alzheimer’s disease. 6. What can we infer about Minton’s first novel from the text? A. It was written in a strict manner. B. It was intended to amuse crazy readers. C. It was based on Minton’s own experience. D. It might not be written but for Minton’s injury.
7. Which of .he following can best describe Minton’s experience? A. Good luck always comes out of misfortune. B. A bad beginning makes a good ending. C. It’s hard sailing when there is no wind. D. More haste, less speed.
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】
本文为记叙文。G. A. Minton从小就一直是科幻小说和恐怖小说的忠实粉丝，生活中的他兴趣广泛。不幸的是被醉酒司机撞倒头部受伤。事故发生后，在大脑慢慢地开始自我修复的过程中，增强了他的创造性，激发了他创作的激情，他开始写作创作。 【4题详解】
【解题剖析】此题属于推理判断题中的根据事实细节，推断合理信息。答案需要从文章的Minton likes playing the game of golf most, …In addition to writing, he also enjoys reading, traveling, fishing, swimming, working out, listening to hard rock music, and watching great movies.进行推断。
【答案定位】第二段的内容Minton likes playing the game of golf most, …In addition to writing, he also enjoys reading, traveling, fishing, swimming, working out, listening to hard rock music, and watching great movies可知G. A. Minton日常生活中喜欢玩高尔夫游戏，写作，阅读，旅游，钓鱼，锻炼等，可知他是一个兴趣广泛的人。 【推理关系】题干From Paragraph 2, we know that G☞文章内容Minton likes playing the game of golf most, …In addition to writing, he also enjoys reading, traveling, fishing, swimming, working out, listening to hard rock music, and watching great movies.
【答案】likes playing the game of golf most, …In addition to writing, he also enjoys reading,...☞B 选项is a man of multiple interests
【点睛】推理判断之根据事实细节，推断合理信息。
根据事实细节，推断合理信息。推理题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上，作出一定判断和推论，从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理题所涉及的内容可能是文中某一句话，也可是某几句话，但做题的指导思想都是以文字信息为依据，既不能做出在原文中找不到文字根据的推理，也不能根据表面文字信息做多步推理。也就是说，要做到判断有据, 推论有理, 忠实原文。切忌用自己的观点代替作者的本意，切忌片面思考，得出片面结论。 【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段Strangely enough, it was only after Minton was knocked down by a drunk driver and suffered a closed-head injury that he developed a new found passion for writing.及第四段内容可知在Minton被醉酒司机撞倒后头部受伤，这个事故后，他才有了新的写作激情。在大脑慢慢的恢复过程中，他才有了强烈的写作欲望，写了他的第一部小说。由此可推断出是在事故后他的创造才能被激发。故选C项 【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段的内容One could think that the damaged neurons（神经元）had rearranged themselves into a different pattern, and thus improving the creative elements in his brain.可知，人们可能认为受损的神经元已经重新排列成一种不同的模式，从而改善了大脑中的创造性元素。由此可推断出，如果他没有受伤的话，就也许没有写作。故选D项。 【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文中的G. A. Minton从小就一直是科幻小说和恐怖小说的忠实粉丝，生活中的
他兴趣广泛。不幸的是被醉酒司机撞倒头部受伤。在康复的过程，激发了他创作的激情，写起了小说。可B. 恶始必有好结局；C. 无风难驶船；D. 欲以这么说他是因祸得福了。分析选项（A．好运总是来自于不幸；速则不达)），可知A项符合题意。
C
The faces of the four U. S. presidents on Mount Rushmore will likely last for centuries. But at a newly opened exhibit in Japan, you can catch them only for about eight months. This year, the annual sand sculpture event at the Sand Museum in Tottori, Japan, is focused on another country. This is the 10th anniversary of the event. Artists came from 19 countries to shape sand into different sculptures that represent events in U. S. history and American landmarks.
Tottori is a remote city in western Japan. In the past, not many tourists traveled to it. To attract more visitors, Tottori officials decided to use a natural resource: sand. They decided to create a sand museum that would house a series of sand sculptures based on different geographic areas of the world. The sand from each year’s exhibition is used again the next year. The project has been a success. About 500,000 people visit the museum during the eight months. Some return year after year to see the new sculptures.
The city is now a popular spot for sand sculpture artists too. Sculptors from around the world come to Tottori each spring, spending a few weeks working on their masterpieces. They use special tools to smooth the sandy surfaces, cut angles and details. They use only sand and water to create the huge sculptures, some of which tower over their creators.
Originally, the artists built their creations outside. But the works lasted less than two months outdoors. So the museum built a permanent structure 10 house the artworks, which extended their life to eight months. Now many more tourists get to see the sculptures. Still, the fact that this art is not permanent is part of the appeal. The temporary sculptures reflect the Japanese value of appreciating the fleeting（稍纵即逝）nature of the world.
Tottori is not the only Japanese town that shows temporary art like this. Sapporo, in northern Japan, hosts a similar exhibit in the winter, using snow instead of sand. Thai will be just about the time that the U. S. sand sculpture exhibition is taken apart, and the sand is saved for next year’s show. 8. Why is sand sculpture event held every year in Tottori? A. To show the wonderful artworks of the city. B. To show the diverse culture of the city. C. To represent the character of the city.
D. To attract more visitors to the city.
9. What do the exhibits in Tottori and Sapporo show? A. The changing seasons offer artists chances to create arts. B. Temporary art is the most welcomed art form in Japan. C. Natural works of art are popular all over the world. D. The sand is more popular to artists than the snow. 10. What can we know about the sand exhibit from the text? A. New sand will be used in the next year’s show. B. It has been held in more than 19 countries so far. C. Mare artists show interest in creating arts in sand.
D. The fact that the exhibition lasts a short time makes it more attractive 11. What is the best title of this text? A. The Popularity of Sand B. Sand Museum in Japan C. A Special Sand Exhibition D. Artists’ Contribution to the World 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】
本文为说明文。本文主要叙述了在日本每年都有一个沙雕展，来自世界的雕塑家们每年春天来到Tottori花几周用沙子和水来创作他们的杰作进行展示，但这种艺术不会持久，却反映了日本人欣赏世界稍纵即逝的特点。 【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的内容可知，Tottori是日本西部的一个偏僻城市。过去，游客不多。为了吸引更多的游客，Tottori官员决定使用天然资源：沙子来建立一个沙质博物馆。由此可知，D项符合题意，故选D项。 【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章的前四段可知，世界各地的雕塑家每年春天来到鸟Tottori，花几个星期的时间用沙子和水来创作他们的杰作来展示。根据第5段可知，在日本北部的Sapporo冬天用雪代替沙子举办类似的展览。由此可知，季节不同，给艺术家不同的机会来创造艺术。由第四段最后一句可知，这种艺术反映了日
本人欣赏世界稍纵即逝的本性，而不是最受欢迎的艺术形式。故B是错误的。C和D项文中没提及。分析选项可知A项符合题意。 【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“The sand from each year’s exhibition is used again the next year.”及最后一段“Thai will be just about the time that the U. S. sand sculpture exhibition is taken apart, and the sand is saved for next year’s show.”可知，每年的沙子可重复使用，故A错误。第一段最后一句“Artists came from 19 countries to shape sand”来自19个国家的艺术家，而不是19个国家举行，故B项错误。第四段“Now many more tourists get to see the sculptures. Still, the fact that this art is not permanent is part of the appeal.” 现在有更多的游客参观雕塑。尽管如此，这一艺术不是永久性的事实却是有吸引力的一个部分。其中的not permanent与last a short time是同义词，由此可判断C错，D项正确。故选D项。 【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要叙述了在日本每年都有一个沙雕展，来自世界的雕塑家们每年春天来到Tottori花几周用沙子和水来创作他们的杰作进行展示。因此C项作为题目最为恰当。
D
Are you always disturbed by the noise made by your coworkers while you’re working hard at your task? What kind of feelings will you have on hearing such kind noise? Have you ever got an idea that a certain helmet will help you out of the trouble no you can focus on your work at the office? Now, you needn’t worry for the “Helmfon” will help you ignore noisy co-workers and other distractions.
.......................................
Created by Ukrainian design company Hochu Rayu, the Helmfon is a big helmet that uses special equipment to absorb the sound so as to completely block out any outside noise, giving the wearer their own quiet personal space so they can better focus their attention on their work. Made of a glass fiber shell, cloth and polyethylene（聚乙烯）, the helmet not only blocks outside sound, but it also keeps the noise you make in, allowing you to answer calls, hold Skype conferences, watch or edit videos, privately.
The company came up with the idea for the Helmfon after being asked to design a new phone booth for an IT
company. The project made the team think about the way we communicate and finally begin work on a device that would allow you to be in two worlds just sitting on your chair in the office, in a meeting, or everywhere you feel like just wearing your helmet.
The Helmfon comes complete with a system board, microphone, speakers, and a special holder for your phone. The only trouble is that it makes you look like a character from Mel Brooks famous movie Spaceballs, but the company also made public a variety of great choices, including Bat man-inspired design, and even a Native American headgear.
The Helmfon is still in prototypestage, but the Ukrainian company is already working on a commercially （维形）available design and plans to offer the design for sale. A release date has not yet been made public. 12. What is the function of the Helmfon?
A. Protecting the wearers’ safety. B. Keeping others talking secretly. C. Helping the wearers talk secretly. D. Giving the wearers quiet space. 13. What do the underlined words “The project” refer to?
A. Designing a new phone booth. B. Inventing a helmet everyone likes. C. Designing a device people can wear. D. Holding a special phone meeting. 14. What’s the disadvantage of the Helmfon?
A. It makes the wearer uncomfortable. B. It isn’t suitable for everyone. C. Its appearance may be strange. D. It looks like an astronaut’s helmet. 15. We can infer from the text that the Ukrainian company . A. designed the helmet specially for an IT company B. plans to sell the helmet in the future C. often comes up with crazy ideas D. will sell the helmet online
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】
本文为说明文。主要讲述了乌克兰设计公司HoCu-Rayu创建的Helffon装置，是一个大头盔，使用特殊设备来吸收声音，从而完全遮住外部噪音，给佩戴者自己安静的个人空间，使他们能够更好地将注意力集中在他们的工作上。Helffon仍处于原型阶段，但乌克兰公司已经在进行商业化设计，并计划出售该产品。 【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段第二句“the Helmfon is a big helmet that uses special equipment to absorb the sound so as to completely block out any outside noise, giving the wearer their own quiet personal space”可知，Helffon是一种大头盔，它使用特殊的设备来吸收声音，从而完全遮住任何外部噪音，给佩戴者自己安静的个人空间。故选D项。 【13题详解】
猜测词义题。根据第三段“The company came up with the idea for the Helmfon after being asked to design a new phone booth for an IT company. The project made the team think about the way we communicate…”在为IT公司设计一个新的电话亭后，该公司想出了Helffon的主意。这个项目让团队思考我们的交流方式…。由此可判断出，这个项目就是前面的设计一个新的电话亭，故选A项。 【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的内容The only trouble is that it makes you look like a character from Mel Brooks famous movie Spaceballs, but the company also made public a variety of great choices, including Bat man-inspired design, and even a Native American headgear.可知，这种头盔唯一的麻烦就是让穿戴者有点像电影中的人物，并且公司还提供选择如像蝙蝠侠灵感设计，甚至是美国本土的头饰，由此可知它的缺点就是外表也许有点奇怪。故选C项。 【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可知，Helffon仍是雏型阶段，但乌克兰公司已经在进行商业化的设计，并计划出售该产品。发布日期尚未公布。由此可推断出乌克兰公司打算卖这种头盔。故选B项。
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

___17___ Employees may be working hard to find a particular solution, but cannot come up with anything. Browsing through Facebook can help them gel inspired to find solutions in a different way and be successful at it.
Blocking access to Facebook means that the employer doesn’t trust the employees. People are dissatisfied with the company if they’re not allowed access to Facebook. ___18___ Therefore, allowing access to Facebook means that the employees are given a certain amount of freedom.
Today many companies have pages on Facebook which they use for spreading news and something about products.

本文为议论文。主要论述了公司不让员工上脸书，会让员工不满意，从而没有积极性，因为脸书可以让员工与他人分享交流，保持联系，让员工之间有凝聚力，也可激发他们工作的积极性。因此允许员工上脸书有好处的。 【16题详解】
考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。第一段论述了有一些公司禁止员工上脸书。他们认这对工作有负面影响。本题后一句“some reasons are listed why employees should be allowed access to Facebook.”列出一些原因为什么应该让员工上脸书。此句与上文意思相反。分析选项可知，选项A中的However，表示前后意思相反。而A项（然而，他们的禁令并未被广泛接受）符合本题，故选A项。 【17题详解】
考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。分析本段可知，主要论述了员工一直努力解决问题，但苦于找不到
解决问题的方案。休息一下，在休息时上脸书网也许有助激发灵感，以不同的方式解决问题并取得成功。由此可判断上脸书休息一下是有好处的，有必要的。分析选项可知G项（他们认为工作几小时后休息是必要的）与本段内容一致。故选G项。 【18题详解】
考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。根据本题的上文说，阻止人们上脸书意味着老板不信任员工，员工们会对公司不满。题后的内容“允许上脸书意味着让员工有一定的自由”。由此可知，要让他们有积极性，必须让他们满意，即让员工上脸书。由此可知，选项F（为了保持人们的积极性，他们必须满意）符合题意，故选F项。 【19题详解】
考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。根据本题的上文可知，许多公司在脸谱网上都有自己的网页，员工可以通过脸谱网互相交流分享，有凝聚力，员工相处好。分析选项可知，D项（通过保持联系有助于改善他们之间的关系）与本题意义相一致，故选D项。 【20题详解】
考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。根据上文可知，作者认为是否允许上脸书要视情况而言。就员工而言，大多数支持允许上脸书。由此可得出：公司也应该考虑员工的利益。分析选项可知，选项 E（ 因此，公司应该考虑到员工的利益）符合本段的内容。 【名师点睛】七选五题型解题技巧
该题型对学生的考察能力总体把握整篇文章的布局和逻辑层次关系，握微观信息间关联性。即空格前后句间关系。 这种题一般可从以下方面来考虑：
（1）看首段，跳过空格快速通读全篇，了解文章大意。
（2）精读空格前后两句，利用各种衔接手段选择正确的选项填入空格。七选五空出的是整个句子，而这些句子与句子之间，必然有一种联系，因此我们可以通过选项跟空前或空后的一致性或者相关性来确定这两个句子之间有一种关联性，从而选择正确的答案。如第4 小题。根据上文的内容可知，通过脸谱网互相交流分享，有凝聚力，员工相处好。根据本题的上文可知，许多公司在脸谱网上都有自己的网页，员工可以通过脸谱网互相交流分享，创造了一种凝聚力。这与选项D项（通过保持联系有助于改善他们之间的关系）意义相一致，从而找到正确答案。
（3 解题的关键是能娴熟地利用各种衔接手段。尤其要注意代词，连词等。如表示转折关系的but，though, however 等。如第1小题，通过上下文的比较，可知前后意思相反。选项A中however表示前后的转折。由此得出正确的答案。

本文为记叙文。9岁的杰克·戴维斯给NASA写了一封信，申请保护行星主任一职。他认为尽管他很小，但他认为他能胜任这份工作。这封信在互联网上引起了广泛的关注。 【41题详解】
考查非谓语。9岁的Jack Davis写给美国宇航局的信，在信里申请一份与宇航员一起工作。分析句子可知，本句中的9-year-old Jack Davis 作介词by的宾语，而Jack Davis 的ask作宾语补足语，二者是主动关系，所以要用动词的ing 形式，因此本题中要填 asking。 【42题详解】
考查固定搭配。apply for…为固定搭配，意为“申请…..”，故填for 。 【43题详解】
考查副词。尽管他很小，但他认为自己能胜任这份工作。分析本句可知，形容词perfect在句子中修饰动词
be fit，修饰动词要用副词形式，故填 perfectly。 【44题详解】
考查冠词。我九岁，但我认为我是一个很恰当的人选。分析句子可知，本句中表示量词“一”。故填a。 【45题详解】

考查名词。 动词excite被a lot of 修饰，作其宾语，因此要用名词形式，故填excitement。

Last summer holiday, I paid visit to Hong Kong with my father. To their surprise, we found the streets were not as wide as those in our city. The bus and cars were running very fast. The sidewalks were always crowding because many visitors went there every day. The people there were friendly, and when we were asked them for help, they were willing to help us. We take many photos there and then we shared them on WeChat Moments（朋友圈）. We also bought some gifts there for much things were sold for a discount. It’s so hardly to say goodbye to Hong Kong. We hope to go there once more unless we have chances.
【答案】
【解析】
本文为记叙文。叙述了作者与爸爸一起去香港去旅游的经历。
1.考查固定搭配。去年暑假我和爸爸一起去了香港。pay a visit to …为固定搭配，意为“去某地参观、旅游，拜访某人”，因此在在paid后添加a 。
2.考查人称代词的一致性。我们惊讶的是，我们发现那儿的街道不像我们城市的街道那么宽。根据文章可知，是我们去旅游，所以是我们很惊讶，故把their改为our。
3.考查名词复数。根据后面的“cars were running very fast”可知，街上的公交车和轿车很多，所以要用复数。因此把.bus改为buses 。
4.考查形容词。crowding为名词“拥挤， 人行道总是拥挤不堪，因为每天都有许多游客去那里。聚集”，而本句中要用形容词，因此crowded“拥挤的,塞满的”符合题意，crowding改为crowded
5.考查谓语动词的语态。那里的人很友好，当我们请他们帮助时，他们愿意帮助我们。分析句子when we were asked them for help, they were willing to help us，本句中的we与谓语动词ask for 是主动关系而非被动关系，因此要把were多余，可删除were
6.考查谓语动词的时态。分析文章可知，本文讲述的是过去的事，所以以过去时为主，故把take改为took 。
7.考查形容词。根据后面的“much things”可知，things为可数名词的复数，而much只能修饰不可数
名词，修饰可数名词复数要用many修饰。所以把much改为many 。
8.考查固定搭配。很多东西都是打折出售的。at a discount of….为固定搭配，意为“按…的折扣”，所以把for改为at
9.考查形容词。和香港告别真是太难了。Hardly为“几乎不”，而“hard”意为“难的，硬的”。因此 hardly改为hard
10.考查连词。如果有机会我们希望再去一次。unless意为“除非…”,而句中要用如果，即连词“if”，故把 unless改为if.
第二节书面表达（满分25分）

____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________
Yours, Li Hua
【答案】Dear Jim,
I’m very glad to hear that you will come to visit China. There is no doubt that a Chinese name will help you better fit in with the culture in our country.
A Chinese name usually consists of two or three characters, which often carry some special significance or
expectations. Unlike an English name, the family name is usually put first. And then a given name follows. As you’re kind, smart and energetic, I think Li Yang is most suitable for you. The family name is one of those shared by the largest number of Chinese. The given name means the sun in Chinese.
I hope you will like your new name and have a really good time in China.
Yours, Li Hua
