M: Ha-ha. Very funny.

W: No, really. Mrs. Sorenson explained it. The earth goes around the sun at an angle, and that changes where the sun is at noon.

M: But...then those old clocks that measured time by the sun’s shadow are all wrong?

W: Umm, not exactly. They’re just not the same as the time we keep on our co mputers.

M: I wish I were sitting at a computer right now instead of out here. I’m starting to hate nature.

A dog spent the last four years of his life waiting a crossroad in the Thai city of Khon Kaen as if

waiting for someone. People originally thought the dog had been abandoned, but then realized that he looked healthy, so people asked around about him. It turned out that the dog had indeed been spending most of his time around that crossroad, but a woman had been coming round regularly to bring him food and water.

One day, while photographing the dog everyone called Leo, a reporter met the woman who had been taking care of him. She had come to drop off some food. After learning the story about the dog and the woman, the reporter decided to share the story on social media. The post soon went viral and the photos of Leo got shared hundreds of times. And the photos reached the eyes of Leo’s former old owner.

Nang Noi Sittisarn, a 64-year-old woman from Thailand’s Roi Et Province, almost had a heart attack when her daughter showed her a photo of the beloved dog named BonBon she had lost during a car trip. When she learned that he had been waiting for her in the same spot for the last four years,her heart melted(融化).

Auntie Noi told her daughter to drive her to where the dog was waiting. When she got there and called his name. BonBon,the poor dog started wiggling(扭动)his tail and came to her,but when she tried to take him home with her, he was unw illing to follow. She didn’ t want to force the dog to come with her so she agreed to leave him with his new master. However, she and her daughter will come to visit him regularly.

24. Why did the dog look healthy after separation from his former owner?

A. He walked around the crossroad constantly.

B. He was kept at a woman’s home all the time.

C. A local reporter brought him food and water.

D. A woman looked after him on a regular basis.

25. What does the underlined phrase “went viral” in paragraph 2 proba bly mean?

B. Spread quickly.

C. Appeared gradually.

D. Fell directly.

26. How did Nang Noi Sittisam feel about the dog's waiting for her?

B. Regretful.

C. Touched.

D. Proud.

27. What can we mainly learn from the story about the dog?

D. No one knows the result until the last minute

【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. C

【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文。Nang Noi Sittisarn四年前不小心丢了一条狗。这条忠诚的狗在走丢的地方等待原主人四年,四年期间他得到了一位好心女士的悉心照料。最后Leo与原主人重聚,但是作为回报,他留下来陪伴照料他的新主人。

【24题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段“... he looked healthy… but a woman had been coming around regularly to bring him food and water ”可知,那条狗看起来健康是因为一位女士定期照料他,给他带来食物。故选D项。

【25题详解】

词句猜测题。根据画线短语的后一句“the photos of Leo got shared hundreds of times”可知,关于Leo的帖子迅速传开,因此可推测went viral与spread quickly意思接近。故选B项。

【26题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段“When she learned that he had been waiting for her in the same spot for the last four years,her heart melted(融化) ”可知,Nang Noi Sittisarn得知她的狗一直在等待她,她深受感动。故选C项。

【27题详解】

推理判断题。根据第三段“…he had been waiting for her in the same spot for the last four years”这条狗等待自己的主人四年,说明他对主人很忠诚;根据最后一段“but when she tried to take him home with her, he was unwilling to follow”可知,这条狗留下来陪伴新主人,说明他知道感恩。由此可推断,我们通过Leo的故事应该学会忠诚与感恩。故选C项。

Shinrin- yoku means"forest bathing".Forest bathing doesn't mean you take a bath in the forest;rather,you simply go for a walk in the woods or a city park,where you slacken by using all your senses to experience nature.

Yoshifumi Miyazaki,from Chiba University,is among a growing number of scientists who have begun studying the science behind the effects of nature on human health.In his book

Shinrin-yoku:The Japanese Art of Forest Bathing,Miyazaki explains the techniques of forest bathing.

Miyazaki has an interesting theory about why shinrin-yoku is so effective.He points out that for more than 99,99%of the time,humans have lived in a natural environment.In fact,in 1800,only 3%of the world's population lived in cities,and by 2016,this figure reached 54%. This is only going to get worse;officials predict that by 2050,66%will live in cities.

This suggests we live in our modern society with bodies that are still used to the natural environment,he writes in the book,because"genes cannot change over just a few hundred years".The science behind the research studies he presents in the book makes a convincing case that forest bathing is an effective method for reducing stress in today's world.

Now city planners are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of nature and are creating new kinds of "parks”out of empty spaces.There' re also more city gardens where people can grow vegetables.For kids,kitchen gardens in schools are becoming popular.As Miyazaki stresses,you don't have to find a formal park or garden to practice shinrin-yoku. Instead,you can enjoy the effects of nature wherever there' re plants.

Better yet,he says,we can bring nature closer to where we spend most of our time.Miyazaki's research has shown that just increasing the amount of plants in a room can affect the relaxation benefits of the room.What's more,even when people simply look at flowers,their bodies relax and stress levels decrease.

28. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 1 mean?

A. Behave.

B. Entertain.

C. Anticipate.

D. Relax.

29. How does the author mainly develop the third paragraph?

A. By giving examples.

B. By listing figures.

C. By making remarks.

D. By presenting research findings.

30. Why does forest bathing work effectively according to Miyazaki?

A. Human genes can change easily.

B. Nature is part of the modern society.

C. Human body can integrate into nature.

D. People can always get excited in nature.

31. Which of the following will Miyazaki agree on forest bathing?

A. It is easy to operate.

B. It is meant for gardeners.

C. It is unaffordable in the city.

D. It is inconvenient to practice.

【答案】28. D 29. B 30. C 31. A

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了日本千叶大学的一位科学家提出一种名为Shinrin- yoku的“森林浴”活动,增加与自然的接触对人的身心健康是有利的。

【28题详解】

词义猜测题。从森林浴的形式以及下文它带来的对健康的好处来看,通过在自然环境中散步、用一切感官感受自然应该会让人放松下来。故选D项。

【29题详解】

推理判断题。第三段中为了说明城市人口占比的变化情况,列举了1800年、2016年及预测的2050年的百分比数值,使用的是列数字的说明方法。故选B项。

【30题详解】

推理判断题。根据第三、第四段的描述,在这位科学家看来,近百年来人类的居住环境迅速变化,但基因中对于自然的适应性是不可能同步变化的,而森林浴这种形式对身心健康有益,正是因为人类的身体还适于生活在自然环境中。C选项“人体能融入到自然之中”符合文意。故选C项。

【31题详解】

推理判断题。从最后一段可知,森林浴这一形式并不难做到,只要在房间里增加些植物就能奏效,甚至当人们看到花朵时压力都会下降。A选项“这操作起来很容易”符合文意。故选A 项。

D

Stories play a vital role in the growth and development of children. The books they read and the characters they get to know can become like friends. It's also good for children to understand that books are a useful source of information and that good reading skills are important for success in their future lives.

Children who can read well are more likely to have higher confidence levels. This will benefit them in school as they’ll feel able to participate fully in activities. Another part of building confidence

is to know where you fit into the world. Stories can help with this process by showing children what people's lives are like where they live and in other parts of the world.

Stories are a great way to introduce new words and ideas into a child's language--starting with picture books for the very young, working up to more complex novels for teenagers. Fiction based on real life can also help children with their own life experience--it shows them how diverse the world is and that some people's lives are vastly different from theirs. And the process is done in a natural way. There's no actual teaching involved at all, but they learn from simply reading the story.

Reading helps children understand that there are other children who feel the same way and they are not alone. This helps children understand that feelings are normal and should be expressed. Watching their responses to the feelings of the characters in the stories will give you some idea of how a child feels about certain situations and emotions. For example, how the child responds to the character in the story feeling sad or scared will give you some idea of how the child thinks.

As you can see, children's stories are important for a number of reasons and form a vital part of the growing process. Being part of that process can bring children a sense of satisfaction as well as being great fun. So, go and get your children some wonderful books to allow them to enjoy a relaxing bedtime story.

32. What can we know from Paragraph 1?

A. Reading stories benefits children a lot.

B. Reading is the best way to gain information.

C. Reading stories helps children make more friends.

D. Reading skills should be developed at a young age.

33. How could reading stories raise children's confidence?

A. Inspiring children to get good grades.

B. Supporting children's language development.

C. Aiding children with living in a better family environment.

D. Allowing children to explore their suitable positions in society.

34 What does the author think about learning through reading?

A. Unrealistic.

B. Effective.

C. Time-saving

D. Expensive.

35. What can be inferred from the text?

A. Most teenagers are fond of complex novels.

B. Picture books are lacking in real life situations.

C. Most children have difficulty in expressing themselves.

D. Parents can know kids better from kids' reading responses.

【答案】32. A 33. D 34. B 35. D

【解析】

这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲了故事对儿童的成长和发展起着至关重要的作用。

【32题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段The books they read and the characters they get to know can become like friends. It's also good for children to understand that books are a useful source of information and that good reading skills are important for success in their future lives.(他们可以和读的书和认识的人物成为朋友。让孩子们明白书籍是有用的信息来源,良好的阅读技巧对他们未来的成功也很重要,这对他们也有好处。)由此可知,A选项“阅读故事对孩子们很有好处”这个表述正确,故选A。

【33题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段Another part of building confidence is to know where you fit into the world. Stories can help with this process by showing children what people's lives are like where they live and in other parts of the world.(建立自信的另一个方法是了解自己在这个世界上的位置。故事通过向孩子们展示他们居住的地方和世界的其他地方的人们的生活是什么样的,帮助这个进程。)由此可知,通过阅读故事,让孩子们探索自己在社会中的合适位置,来提高孩子的自信心。故选D。

【34题详解】

推理判断题。根据第三段And the process is done in a natural way. There's no actual teaching involved at all, but they learn from simply reading the story.(这个过程是用自然的方式完成的。没有实际的教学涉及,但他们只是通过阅读故事来学习。)由此推断出,作者认为通过阅读学习非常有效。故选B。

【35题详解】

推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Watching their responses to the feelings of the characters in the stories

will give you some idea of how a child feels about certain situations and emotions.(观察他们对故事中人物情感的反应会让你了解孩子对某些情况和情感的感受。)由此推断出,父母可以从孩子的阅读反应中更好地了解孩子。故选D。

这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了克隆技术和其应用对人类社会产生的影响。

【56题详解】

考查非谓语动词。句意:首先,园丁一直使用这种方式生产大批量有商业价值的植物。use sth. to do sth.是固定搭配,意为“使用某物做某事”,所以此处使用动词不定式,故填to produce。【57题详解】

考查形容词。句意:另一个是,它对于新植物种类的研究和有关植物的医疗价值研究有价值。根据空前的is可知,空处使用形容词作表语,此处表示“有价值的”,故填valuable。

考查时态。句意:另一方面,Dolly的出生引起了一阵强烈的反对,对媒体和公众的想象力有很大的影响。分析句子可知,and连接两个并列谓语动词,根据had可知,此处是一般过去时,所以空处使用动词过去式与had保持一致。故填raised。

【60题详解】

考查宾语从句。句意:然而,科学家仍然想知道,克隆是能帮助我们还是对我们有害,它将把我们引向何处。分析句子可知,wonder后有两个宾语从句,分别是由whether和空处引导,由and连接,空处引导词在从句中作地点状语,应使用where引导。故填where。
