Brian arrived at the San Francisco airport two hours before the flight to Paris. He was wearing three shirts, a jacket, two pairs of socks, a pair of shorts, and two pairs of jeans. He was carrying one small backpack, which was very full, but he didn’t have any other luggage. Brian needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight. He found Tony near the Air France counter. Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package.
“Give this package to Jean-Paul at the airport in Paris. He will have a sign with your name on it. I think you can find him easily, “Tony said.” You don’t have any luggage, right?”
“Only this backpack,” Brian answered. “You said I could bring one carry-on bag.”
“That’s right, one carry-on bag is fine. Have a good trip.”
“Thanks.”
Is Brian a criminal（犯罪）? Not at all. He is an air courier. And he paid only $110 for the round-trip ticket to Paris. Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries. Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day. Often, the only way they can do this is to use an air-courier company. It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier, but it is quick.
Every year about 80, 000 people worldwide travel as air couriers. The number of tickets for courier travel is growing by about 10 percent a year. However, air-courier travel isn’t for everyone, But if you have very little money, can be flexible（灵活的）about your travel plans, and don’t mind wearing the same clothes for a week, it can be a great way to take a vacation!
52 Why was Brian wearing so many clothes for his travel?
A. Because they were the uniform for air couriers,
B. Because that made him easier to be recognized.
C. Because his backpack had no room for his clothes.
D. because he did not have any luggage with him.
53 An air courier is a person who
A. manages a business company in foreign countries
B. organizes international flights for tourists
C. travels around the world with cheap tickets
D. delivers papers and packages to foreign countries
54 Businesses choose the air-courier service because
A. it costs less
B. it is flexible
C. it saves time
D. it grows fast
55 One of the disadvantages of traveling as an air courier is that he
A. cannot decide when and where to travel
B. cannot take any luggage with him
C. has to wear two pairs of jeans
D. saves little money from the travel
56 The author of the text mainly
A. describes the activities of a law-breaker
B. suggests an ideal way to travel
C. argues against the air-courier travel
D. tells us about a developing business
、完形填空
答案与解析：
本文讲述了作者在孩提时代与父亲之间的一些故事。浓浓的父爱使作者对童年有着美好的回忆。
1．B 并列连接词“and”暗示空格处的词语应与后面的“love”同属褒义词，所以可先排除C项和D项；再结合文章开头和下文可知文章讲的是美好的回忆，所以答案为B项。
2．D 下文“Any kind of __3__ ride seemed to give him pleasure.”和“he loved to fish”暗示父亲非常喜欢水上活动，故选love。
3．A 根据上文可知应选A项，与水有关的活动是乘船。
4．C 上句提到乘船能给父亲带来乐趣，后面提到父亲喜欢钓鱼，所以用and表示递进关系。
5．D 前文谈到父亲喜欢水上活动，the way my father did相当于my father liked being on the water。“我”喜欢在水中嬉戏而父亲喜欢水上活动。
6．A 句子的主干是I liked being at the water，后面的moving through it和having it all around me为现在分词短语作状语，表示伴随。have后带介词短语作宾语补足语，表示使某人或某物处于某种状态。
7．A 由语境可知，这里指“我”并不十分擅长游泳，故选A项。
8．D 前文提到“我”没有很早地学游泳，根据常理推测小孩子心中害怕水。
9．A 语意为：“我”喜欢在离父亲办公室很近的那个游泳池里游泳，与父亲一起度过夏日。
10．B 这里would表示“过去常常(做某事)”。should意为“应该”，had to“不得不”，ought to“应该”。
11．B 通常出现在游泳池里的人都穿着泳装，而“我”父亲则穿着西服，因此他是唯一(only)不穿泳装的人。
12．D 由下文“我”在父亲办公室里玩耍可知应选D项。游泳结束后，“我”总是到父亲的办公室里玩耍。
13．C put up意为“张贴，搭建，为某人提供食宿”；break down“机器出故障，身体垮掉，感情失去控制，分解”；work out“计算出，想出”；play with“与……一起玩，玩弄”。由下文“...I shouldn't be playing with his...”可知此处应选C项。
14．C the moment意为“一……就……”；the first time意为“第一次……”；while意为“在……期间”；before意为“在……之前”。在父亲去实验室工作期间，“我”就一个人呆在他办公桌旁。
15．B 上文提到“我”从父亲的办公室抽屉里找东西玩，故选B项。
16．C stand up意为“站起来”；set out意为“出发，开始”；turn out意为“结果是，被证明是”；show up“出现，到场”。只有C项符合语境。
17．A “Oh，no，it's fine.”表示“没关系”，由句首的But可知父亲允许“我”玩他办公室的东西。
18．C 此处指父亲给“我”钱，让“我”给自己买冰淇淋吃。
19．A 文章开头的 “my memory”和下文的“our memories”暗示这里应填memory。
20．B 此处构成not only... but (also)结构，且最后一句为强调句。、阅读理解

56. 【答案】D
【试题解析】细节题。本题考察细节，A项是对Tower Writer Square的错误理解。在第一行中只是提及这个活动是有comedy and TV writer组织的，并不是说这个活动就是为了培养comedy and TV writer。B项只是这个活动的一个附加部分。C项不是这个活动目的。根据第一则广告第二段最后一句to support the development of young writers。说明这个活动的目的是促进青年作家的发展。故D正确。
57. 【答案】A
【试题解析】细节题。根据第一则广告第三段2,3行please send a sample piece of your writing。可知要想参加这个活动，需要先提供自己的一个作品。BCD三项都不是必须的条件。故A正确。
58. 【答案】B

【翻译】由戏剧和电视剧作家Marian Kilpatrick组织的Towner Writer Squad将会从2017年10月12开始，在当代艺术中心一个月进行一次活动，并将持续11个月。
【分析】本句集中考察了分词作状语的用法，当动词与句子主语构成逻辑上的被动关系就使用过去分词做状语，如Led by comedy and TV writer, Marian Kilpatrick；如果两者构成主动关系，就使用现在分词做状语，如starting 12 October, 2017.。
2. Study and write at your own pace 一 you do not have to rush 一 as you have a year to go through the project
【翻译】按照你自己的节奏学习和写作，你不必着急，因为你有一年的时间来完成这个计划。
【分析】本句中第一句Study and write at your own pace是一个祈使句，后面的破折号表示补充说明前面一句的内容，as引导的是一个原因状语从句。
【解析】文章大意
文章大意是说明一个新型的职业——航空投送员。航空投送员可以享受相当便宜机票优惠，因为他们的的主要职责是及时的给跨国公司投送重要的包裹或文件。
