　　、阅读理解（本大题共3小题，共30分）

　　A

　　B

　　I am a writer. I spend a great deal of my time thinking about the power of language—the way it can evoke（唤起） an emotion, a visual image, a complex idea, or a simple truth. Language is the tool of my trade. And I use them all—all the Englishes I grew up with.

　　Born into a Chinese family that had recently arrived in California, I’ve been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks. Like others, I have described it to people as “broken” English. But feel embarrassed to say that. It has always bothered me that I can think of no way to describe it other than “broken”, as if it were damaged and needed to be fixed, as if it lacked a certain wholeness. I’ve heard other terms used, “limited English,” for example. But they seem just as bad, as if everything is limited, including people’s perceptions（认识）of the limited English speaker.

　　I know this for a fact, because when I was growing up, my mother’s “limited” English limited my perception of her. I was ashamed of her English. I believed that her English reflected the quality of what she had to say. That is ,because she expressed them imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect. And I had plenty of evidence to support me: the fact that people in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.

　　I started writing fiction in 1985. And for reasons I won’t get into today, I began to write stories using all the Englishes I grew up with: the English she used with me, which for lack of a better term might be described as “broken”, and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese, her internal（内在的） language, and for that I sought to preserve the essence, but neither an English nor a Chinese structure: I wanted to catch what language ability tests can never show; her intention, her feelings, the rhythms of her speech and the nature of her thoughts.

　　41. By saying “Language is the tool of my trade”, the author means that ______.

　　A. she uses English in foreign trade

　　B. she is fascinated by languages

　　C. she works as a translator

　　D. she is a writer by profession

　　42. The author used to think of her mother’s English as ______.

　　A. impolite

　　B. amusing

　　C. imperfect

　　D. practical

　　43. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?

　　A. Americans do not understand broken English.

　　B. The author’s mother was not respected sometimes.

　　C. The author’ mother had positive influence on her.

　　D. Broken English always reflects imperfect thoughts.

　　44. The author gradually realizes her mother’s English is _____.

　　A. well structured

　　B. in the old style

　　C. easy to translate

　　D. rich in meaning

　　45. What is the passage mainly about?

　　A. The changes of the author’s attitude to her mother’s English.

　　B. The limitation of the author’s perception of her mother.

　　C. The author’s misunderstanding of “limited” English.

　　D. The author’s experiences of using broken English.

　　The Basenji is a central African hunting dog. It comes from a country called Chad, which is north of the Central African Republic. The Basenji was well-known as the "silent dog" because for centuries no Basenjis had ever been known to bark (吠). Then at a dog show in London in 1953, a Basenji actually barked.

　　As well as being clever, Basenjis are known for their natural courage and are still popular hunting dog in Africa.But in America people keep them mainly because they are gentle and full of fun. The Basenji has an unusual habit: it washes itself all over like a cat. It is a middle-sized dog, 16 or 17 inches high from the shoulder. It weighs about 20 pounds.

　　Most animals have little connection with animals of a different kind, unless they hunt them for food. Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership(伙伴关系)which does good to both of them. You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites (寄生虫) on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so beause they remove the cause of discomfort. So although they can manage without each other,

　　they do better together.

　　Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other. This is so in the corals (珊瑚) of the sea. In their skins they have tiny plants which act as "dustman", taking some of the waste products from the coral and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe. If the plants are killed, or are even prevented from light so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.

　　1. Some birds like to sit on a sheep beause______.

　　A. they can eat its parsites

　　B. they depend on the sheep for existence

　　D. they find the position most comfortble.

　　D.sheep birds and parasites

　　3. It can be learnt from the text that the coral depends on the plant for______.

　　A. comfort

　　B. light

　　C.food

　　4. What does the second paragraph mainly discuss ?

　　A. Some animals and plants depend on each other for existence.

　　B. Some animals and plants develop their relationship easily.

　　C. Some plants depend on each other for food.

　　D. Some animals live bettcr together.

　　（2017天津卷）

　　阅读短文， 按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

　　Last December, Doris Low turned 90. Once a week she still drives to the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) in Toronto, where she helps transform literature into Braille(盲文) to bring the power of story and knowledge to the hears and minds of blind readers. She has been volunteering her time and talents to such enterprises foe more than 40 years.

　　After working in the business world for a while, Low got fed up. So she turned to teaching at a technical school and later moved into the library.

　　Low’s mother liked reading. As her eyes began to fail, low read to her. Then “ hearing an advertisement encouraging people to learn Braille, I decided to give it a try.” In 1973, she was certified as a braille transcriber (转译者) and began transcribing books as a volunteer for the CNIB library.

　　The job was strenuous ---she could get to the end of a page, make a mistake on the last line, and have to do the whole thing again. For a number of years, low also worked in the CNIB sound studio reading books onto tape. Three years ago, she took up proofreading (校对) at the CNIB’s word factory.

　　In April, during Volunteer Week, the CNIB recognized Low for her great contributions. Thanks to volunteers like Low, the CNIB library has got more than 80,000 accessible materials for people unable to read traditional print. “ I can’t imagine how many readers of all ages have benefited from Doris’s contribution as a skilled volunteer through her rich voice and her high degree of accuracy in the hundreds of books she has brailled and proofread over the years--- and she is still doing so,” said a CNIB official.

　　“For me,” said Low, “the CNIB is more than just a place to volunteer. Three things matter most in my life: a little play, a little work, a little love. I’ve found them all here.”

　　56. What does Low still do at the age of 90 at the CNIB? ( no more than 10 words)

　　57. why did Low learn Braille? ( no more than 15 words)

　　58. what does the underlined word “strenuous” most probably mean?(1 word)

　　59. What are Low’s contributions to the CNIB? ( no more than 10 words)

　　60. What do you think of Low? Give your reasons. ( no more than 20 words)

　　、单项填空

　　解析：　考查交际用语。句意为：——实在是太感谢你那天送我的生日礼物了。——不用客气。That’s right没错；Don’t mention it不客气；With pleasure(客气地接受或同意)当然了，很愿意，Nice work干得好，故答案为B。

　　答案：　B解析：　考查动词辨析。ruin可用其引申含义，意为“毁坏”，此时其宾语通常是health，fame，chance等。injure侧重身体上的伤害；wound侧重战场上的刀伤、枪伤等；harm指“对……有害”。

　　答案：　D【答案】A

　　【解析】考查副词用法。根据句意，一个社会不可能会成功如果….，一个社会也不会成功如果…。表示“也不”，故选A。

　　解析：　考查动词辨析。句意为：据科学家说，我们的思考能力在 22 岁达到顶峰后，从 27 岁开始下降。所以用decline。differ表示“与……不同”，shrink表示“收缩”，fail表示“失败”，均与语境不符。

　　答案：　DD考查冠词的用法。第一空考查短语the number of。。。的数量；第二空特指“2010上海世博会”。
