　　(Text 6)

　　In May 1968, five young couples moved into their new houses close to each other on Beasley Street. Forty­five years later, they are still there, although most are now retired and their children have left home.

　　Yesterday, they gathered at Mr. and Mrs. Miller's house to share lunch. The only person missing the lunch was their neighbor Amon, who was traveling overseas.

　　When the five families moved in, there were a few houses there, and their children played all day at each other's houses without their parents worrying about their safety.

　　The neighbors often feed each other's pets. When someone goes on holiday, they will water their plants.

　　Mrs. Brown said she first got to know the Miller family when she and Mrs. Miller took a writing course together, and the pair began a friendship.

　　Mr. Black said as they got older, he and his wife had considered moving to a small house, but finally decided to give up the idea.

　　“We've often discussed getting out and getting into a smaller unit or something, but all of us think the neighbors are too good to leave，” he says.

　　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。

　　A

　　(2017·湖北省重点中学联考)

　　Everywhere I look outside my home I see people busy on their high­tech devices, while driving, walking, shopping, even sitting in toilets. When connected electronically, they are away from physical reality.

　　People have been influenced to become technology addicted. One survey reported that “addicted” was the word most commonly used by people to describe their relationship to iPad and similar devices. One study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep, cigarettes and alcohol.

　　The main goal of technology companies is to get people to spend more money and time on their products, not to actually improve our quality of life. They have successfully created a cultural disease. Consumers willingly give up their freedom, money and time to catch up on the latest information, to keep pace with their peers or to appear modern.

　　I see people trapped in a pathological (病态的) relationship with time­sucking technology, where they serve technology more than technology serves them. I call this technology servitude. I am referring to a loss of personal freedom and independence because of uncontrolled consumption of many kinds of devices that eat up time and money.

　　What is a healthy use of technology devices? That is the vital question. Who is really in charge of my life? That is what people need to ask themselves if we are to have any chance of breaking up false beliefs about their use of technology. When we can live happily without using so much technology for a day or a week, then we can regain control and personal freedom, become the master of technology and discover what there is to enjoy in life free of technology. Mae West is famous for the wisdom that “too much of a good thing is wonderful.” But it's time to discover that it does not work for technology.

　　Richard Fernandez, an executive coach at Google acknowledged that “we can be swept away by our technologies.” To break the grand digital connection people must consider how life long ago could be fantastic without today's overused technology.

　　21．The underlined word “allure” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.

　　A．advantage

　　B．attraction

　　C．adaption

　　D．attempt

　　22．From the passage, technology companies aim to ________.

　　A．attract people to buy their products

　　B．provide the latest information

　　C．improve people's quality of life

　　D．deal with cultural diseases

　　23．What's the author's attitude towards the overusing of high­tech devices?

　　A．Neutral.

　　B．Skeptical.

　　C．Disapproving.

　　D．Sympathetic.

　　答案与解析

　　文中讲述人们过度使用科技的弊端，反对大众对科技的过度依赖。

　　21．B　词义猜测题。根据第二段提到One study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep, cigarettes and alcohol 一个研究表明，人们不能抵抗现代媒体的吸引，所以选B项。

　　22．A　细节理解题。根据第二段提到People have been influenced to become technology addicted. One survey reported that “addicted” was the word most commonly used by people to describe their relationship to iPad and similar devices. 可知科技公司的目的是让人们来买他的产品，故选A项。

　　23．C　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段提到When we can live happily without using so much technology for a day or a week, then we can regain control and personal freedom, become the master of technology and discover what there is to enjoy in life free of technology. 作者对于高科技的过度依赖持反对的态度，故选C项。

　　B

　　Store Scent(香味)

　　What is the first thing you notice when you walk into a shop? The products displayed (展示) at the entrance? Or the soft background music?

　　But have you ever noticed the smell? Unless it is bad, the answer is likely to be no. But while a shop's scent may not be outstanding compared with sights and sounds, it is certainly there. And it is proving to be an increasingly powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase.

　　A brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats through the fairly dark hall and out to the entrance, via scent machines. A smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for freshening air. One sports goods company once reported that when it first introduced scent into its stores, customers' intention to purchase increased by 80 percent.

　　When it comes to the best shopping streets in Paris, scent is just as important to a brand's success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sale. That is mainly because shopping is a very different experience to what it used to be.

　　Some years ago，the focus for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales assistants' disproving attitude and don't­touchwhatyoucan'tafford displays. Now the rise of electronic commerce (ecommerce) has opened up famous brands to a wider audience. But while eshops can use sights and sounds, only bricksandmortar stores (实体店) can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave. Another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop, but rather a destination. And scent is just one way to achieve this.

　　Now, a famous store uses complex manmade smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder floats through the kid department, and coconut (椰子) scent in the swimsuit section. A department store has even opened a new lab, inviting customers on a journey into the store's windows to smell books, pots and drawers, in search of their perfect scent.

　　24. According to the passage, what is an increasingly powerful tool in the success of some brand stores?

　　A. Friendly assistants.

　　B. Unique scents.

　　C. Soft background music

　　D. Attractive window display.

　　25. Eshops are mentioned in the passage to________.

　　A. show the advantages of bricksandmortar stores

　　B. urge shop assistants to change their attitude

　　C. push stores to use sights and sounds

　　D. introduce the rise of ecommerce

　　26. The underlined word “destination” in Paragraph 5 means ________.

　　A. a platform that exhibits goods

　　B. a spot where travelers like to stay

　　C．a place where customers love to go

　　D. a target that a store expects to meet

　　27. The main purpose of the passage is to________.

　　A. compare and evaluate

　　B. examine and assess

　　C. argue and discuss

　　D．inform and explain

　　答案与解析

　　24．B　细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句“And it is proving to be an increasingly powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase.”可知，商店里的香味被证实可以起到促销作用。故B项正确。

　　25．A　推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段中的“But while eshops can use sights and sounds, only bricksandmortar stores (实体店) can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave.”可知，尽管网店使用声音和图像，但只有实体店才能为顾客提供从踏入店门到离开这一完整的体验。因此提及网店只是为了显示实体店的优势。故A项正确。

　　26．C　词义猜测题。根据文章倒数第二段最后的“Another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop, but rather a destination. And scent is just one way to achieve this.”可知，它们想要成为的不仅是一家商店，而是顾客购物的目的地。香味是能实现这一点的一种方法。因此，此处 destination 应该表示顾客乐意去的地方。

　　27．D　写作意图题。纵观全文，本文作者主要讲述香味可以帮助商家吸引顾客，旨在告诉读者这一研究结果及商家对它的运用。因此D项正确。

　　C

　　You may not have heard of Ashoka, but for the past 27 years, this association, founded by Bill Drayton, has fought poverty

　　and sickness, promoted education and

　　encouraged small businesses. To support these worthy causes, Ashoka provides money for the world's most promising “changemakers” seeking to solve

　　urgent problems and would like to create a world in which every citizen is a changemaker.

　　Drayton believes that anyone can become an agent for change. The important thing is to simply give yourself permission. If you see a problem that you care about, you can help solve it. The young in particular are willing to accept this concept because at heart every child wants to grow into a happy, healthy, contributing adult. In fact, it is many young people's ambition to set up programmes or businesses that improve social conditions. An excellent example is an Ashoka project started in 1995 in Dhaka, which handled the rubbish problem facing the city, helped local farmers and provided an income for poor people there.

　　When Masqsood and Iftekhar began to study the problem of all the uncollected rubbish that lay in Dhaka's streets，attracting rats and disease, they discovered that 80% of it was natural waste. So they educated the poor people in the city to compost (把……制成堆肥) this waste. They knew that they would have a market for the end product because local farmers were struggling with chemical fertilisers (化肥) which were expensive and had reduced the natural minerals in the soil over the years. At first, they were refused，but once they were able to persuade them that there was money to be made, the project took off. In 2009 sales were $14,000.

　　Drayton is optimistic that in ten years Ashoka will be making really serious，practical progress in bringing about social change by changing the way we look at economic development.

　　28. Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?

　　A. Changemakers

　　B. Businessmen

　　C. Social Conditions

　　D．Rubbish Problem

　　29. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to“________”．

　　A. the local farmers

　　B. Masqsood and Iftekhar

　　C. Drayton and his team

　　D. the poor people in Dhaka

　　30. It can be concluded from the passage that anyone can become a changemaker if he________.

　　A. considers Drayton's concept

　　B. gets permission from Ashoka

　　C. tries to improve social conditions

　　D. is a young, happy and healthy adult

　　31. The author's attitude towards Ashoka's program can be described as________.

　　A. changing

　　B. forgiving

　　C. cautious

　　D. positive

　　答案与解析

　　28．A　主旨大意题。文章第一段引出 Bill Drayton, 后面提到 Masqsood 和 Iftekhar 的事例，告诉我们只要我们看到问题，并去解决问题，我们每个人都会成为引起变化的人。其中第一段最后一句，第二段第一句都突出了主题。故选A项。

　　29．D　词义猜测题。第三段中提到，Masqsood 和 Iftekhar 发现 Dhaka 的街头堆满垃圾，于是他们教当地的人们怎样把这些垃圾制成肥料，而同时这个地区的农民很穷，化肥又很贵。一开始，他们向这儿的人们推荐时，被拒绝了，但是一旦他们说服 Dhaka 的人制造肥料，他们两人就有了商机。可知此处 them 是指 Dhaka 当地的人们，故选D项。

　　30．C　细节理解题。第二段前两句深化主题，后面及第三段中举的例子都说明了“只要设法改善社会现状，任何人都可以成为引起变化的人”这个道理。故选C项。

　　31．D　推理判断题。全文以 Ashoka 的成功引出主题，以事实来说明“anyone can become a changemaker if he tries to improve social conditions”这个主题，可知作者持肯定的、积极支持的态度，故选D项。

　　D

　　(2017·湖北省黄冈市质检)

　　When different species of birds flock(聚集) together, their flight formations are determined by social dynamics both between and within species.

　　New research from the Universities of Cambridge and Exeter reveals for the first time that, contrary to current models used to explain the movement of flocks, the differences between bird species and social relationships between individuals play a critical role in determining the dynamics of mixed­species flocks.

　　The unified(群集) behaviour of bird flocks has puzzled scientists for hundreds of years. One naturalist from the turn of the century even suggested telepathy(心灵感应) may be involved. There have since been more logical explanations, including mathematical models that show that repeated interactions among individuals following simple rules can generate coordinated(协同的) group movements. However, these models usually rely on the assumption that individuals within groups are identical and interact independently, which may not reflect reality.

　　Jolle Jolles, a PhD student at the University of Cambridge's Department of Zoology and author of the paper, said：“Spectacular collective behaviour can be found in a large range of animal species, and we now know that often these complex coordinated group movements may be the result of individuals following simple rules. However, rarely are the individual characteristics and social relationships within them taken into account. Our research highlights that these striking displays of group behaviour are much more complex.”

　　By analysing high­resolution photographs of mixed flocks of rooks and jackdaws(both from the corvid family), the researchers found that rather than individuals interacting in a consistent fashion throughout the flock, interactions depended on social dynamics between the different species as well as relationships within a species.

　　The researchers discovered that birds prefer to fly close to members of their own species, and that the larger and more dominant rooks take the lead by flying near the front of flocks. Additionally, the lifelong, monogamous(一妻一夫制的) pair bonds that are characteristic of both species seem to be reflected in flight, as birds often fly particularly close to a single, same species partner.

　　Dr Alex Thornton, principal investigator of the Cambridge Jackdaw Project, now at the University of Exeter and author of the paper, said “Together, our findings demonstrate that to understand the structure of groups，such as bird flocks，we need to consider the characteristics and relationships of the individuals within them.”

　　32.The underlined word “generate” means ________.

　　A．set down

　　B．take away

　　C．bring about

　　D．give up

　　33．According to Jolle Jolles, what are seldom considered about coordinated group movement?

　　A．Individual characteristics and social relationship between them.

　　B．Repeated interactions among individuals and social dynamics.

　　C．Telepathy and social relationship between them.

　　D．The structure of groups and the varieties of species.

　　34．Birds may prefer to fly the closest to ________.

　　A．the largest one

　　B．the most dynamic one

　　C．the lifelong partner

　　D．the friendly partner

　　35．What is the main idea of the passage?

　　A．How birds interact in simple rules.

　　B．How birds of different feathers flock together.

　　C．Why birds show preference to flocking.

　　D．Why birds display the characteristics.

　　答案与解析

　　本文是科普类阅读，讲述不同种类的鸟是如何结队而行的，他们之间的关系由彼此之间的物种和内部形态决定的。

　　32．C　词义猜测题。根据第三段提到There have since been more logical explanations, including mathematical models that show that repeated interactions among individuals following simple rules can generate coordinated(协同的) group movements. 已经有更多的逻辑的解释，包括一些数据模型可以表明个体之间重复性的相互作用能够产生协同的团队行动，故选C项。

　　33．A　细节理解题。根据第四段提到However, rarely are the individual characteristics and social relationships within them taken into account. 可知选A项。

　　34．C　细节理解题。根据第六段提到The researchers discovered that birds prefer to fly close to members of their own species, and that the larger and more dominant rooks take the lead by flying near the front of flocks. 可知选C项。

　　35．B　主旨大意题。本文主要讲述不同种类的鸟是如何结队而行的，故选B项。

　　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。

　　What do you, the trees, and a bird have in common? __36__ All living things must have water to survive, whether they get it from a water fountain, a rain cloud, or a little bottle attached to the side of a bird cage.

　　__37__ Water makes up more than half of your body weight and a person can't survive for more than a few days without it. Why? Your body has lots of important jobs and it needs water to do many of them. For instance, your blood, which contains a lot of water, carries oxygen to all the cells of your body. Without oxygen, those tiny cells would die and your body would stop working.

　　Water is also in lymph, a fluid (流体) that is part of your immune system, which helps you fight off illness. __38__ Water is needed for digestive juices, urine, and poop. And you can bet that water makes up most of sweat.

　　In addition to being an important part of the fluids in your body, each cell depends on water to function normally.

　　__39__ Any fluid you drink will contain water, but water and milk are the best choices. Lots of foods contain water, too. __40__ You could probably tell that if you've ever bitten into a peach or pear and felt the juices dripping down your chin! Vegetables, too, contain a lot of water—think of biting into a fat tomato from the garden.

　　A．You need water to digest your food and get rid of waste, too.

　　B．You all need water.

　　C．Without water, your body would stop working properly.

　　D．How much is enough?

　　E．Your body doesn't get water only from drinking water.

　　F．When you drink is also important.

　　G．Fruit contains quite a bit of water.

　　答案与解析

　　37．C　根据下一句Water makes up more than half of your body weight and a person can't survive for more than a few days without it. 可知选C项。

　　38．A　根据下两句Water is needed for digestive juices, urine, and poop. And you can bet... 可知选A项。

　　39．E　根据下两句Any fluid you drink will contain water, but water and milk are the best choices. Lots of foods contain water, too.可知选E项。

　　答案与解析

　　本文是一篇记叙文。作者经营的餐馆倒闭后，一家人乘坐一辆露营车一路北上，途中经过一处公园，看到一则招聘广告，作者一家就暂时留了下来。在经历过一连串的磨难之后，作者意识到，一家人相亲相爱地生活在一起最重要。

　　41．D　根据第二段最后一句中“We entered the park...”可知，作者是在公园的入口处看到这则招聘广告的。

　　42．C　根据语境可知，作者一家乘坐露营车一路北上，在经过 Palo Duro Canyon State Park 时，无意中看到了这则广告。

　　43．B　根据本段第三句中的 a rent­free place 可知，此处应选B项。

　　44．A　根据上文作者做这份工作可以得到免费的长期宿营地，以及下文“the hosts served as a link between the park's guests and the rangers (护林人)”可知，in return“作为回报，作为报答”符合语境。

　　45．D　根据第四段第二句作者第二天与公园经营者见面可知，此处表示作者与公园的经营者约好第二天见面。

　　46．A　根据下文的“so it took us some time to find an available site”可判断，公园里非常拥挤，所以找到适合露营的地点花费了一些时间。

　　47．B　根据语境可知，为了躲避臭鼬，作者一家立刻爬上桌子，躲在高处。

　　48．B　根据语境可知，作者一家出于恐惧而躲在桌子上，因此只能静静地等待两只臭鼬自行离开。

　　49．C　根据上下文内容可知，在公园里住了一个晚上之后，作者一家变得非常自信，觉得其他一切都不成问题。

　　50．A　根据常理，公园的经营者需要向作者一家解释他们的各项职责，也就是需要做些什么。

　　51．D　根据上下文内容可知，作者一家之前的自信太早了些，峡谷吹来的风让这一家人体会到另一种感受。上下文是转折关系，所以选择 however“然而”。

　　52．A　根据下文的“They were strong and cold”以及53空后面的“until the winds died away”可知，此处描述的是峡谷吹来的风。

　　53．A　根据上文的“rocking our little camping truck violently”并结合常识可知，在猛烈的风中，作者一家的露营车被吹得摇摇晃晃，躺在车里的一家人跟着晃动。

　　54．C　根据主句的内容可知，此处描述的是在接下来的几周中发生的事情，所以用 during“在……期间”。

　　55．C　妻子赚的钱不多，但是一定人靠这点钱活了下去。live on“靠……生活”符合语境。

　　56．B　earn 与前面的 the little money 构成搭配。earn money 意为“赚钱”，妻子通过当代课教师赚钱。

　　57．C　根据58空后的“I thought I might lose my family as well”可知，作者之前忙着经营餐馆，没有时间照顾家庭，他曾经担心创业失败之后也会失去自己的家庭。

　　58．B　根据第一段中的“When our restaurant business failed...”可知，作者经营的餐饮生意失败了。

　　59．A　根据上文内容可知，作者一家就住在露营车里。

　　60．D　根据语境并结合文章最后一句可知，作者对所经历的苦难充满感激之情，因为他觉得一家人相亲相爱才最重要、最值得珍惜。

　　范文

　　Dear_Sir，

　　I_am_writing_to_tell_you_something_about_the_people_doing_the_square_dance_in_our_community,_which_has_made_me_terribly_upset.

　　Recently, every morning and evening, many people gather to dance in our community square, which does help to keep healthy. However, the long­time dancing and the noise pollution caused by the loudspeaker really bring about unbearable inconveniences.

　　We can't rest or sleep well. As a result, the students are not only late for school but also sleepy in class, and the workers are easily tired out while working.

　　Here are some suggestions to solve the problem. They are supposed either to shorten the dancing time and reduce the music noise or to make another choice of dancing places. Only in this way can they have fun and let others enjoy life.

　　Would you please communicate with the organizers about what I said?

　　Best_wishes!

　　Sincerely_yours，

　　Li_Hua
