A
Large rainforests are extremely important ecosystems on our planet. They are home to a large number of animal and plant species, and they absorb vast amounts of carbon dioxide, which helps reduce global warming. These biggest ones in the world are a sight to observe.
Daintree Rainforest
The main river of the rainforest is the Daintree River, and it also includes the Daintree National Park. If you are wondering why everything seems to share the name, the reason is simple-Richard Daintree was a famous Australian geologist and photographer. Plenty of options will take you there, including a ferry.
Valdivian Temperate Rainforest
This rainforest is known to be extremely foggy and humid, but some interesting species live there. Since it is on the coast, you can witness ice sheets and glaciers as well. Getting to the rainforest is most accessible from Santiago, the capital of Chile, and a train ride or a bus is a preferred option.
Congo Rainforest
This rainforest also features a large number of different plant and animal species, including gorillas, forest elephants, and lions. Visiting this rainforest is also recommended by using a tour company, preferably by finding one in the Republic of Congo.
Amazon Rainforest
It is estimated that we can find 16,000 different tree species in the Amazon rainforest.
When it comes to other plants, animals, and insects, the numbers are even more impressive. The especially interesting thing is that there is still a large number of undiscovered species. A tour guide is advised since going through the rainforest can be dangerous, with predatory creatures(食肉动物)running around.
1. Which of the following is named after a person?
A. Daintree Rainforest. B. The capital of Chile.
C. The Republic of Congo. D. Amazon Rainforest.
2. What is recommended to visit Valdivian Temperate Rainforest?
A. By ferry. B. By train.
C. By plane. D. By bike.
3. Where is this text most likely from?
A. A diary. B. A brochure.
C. A novel. D. A report.
【答案】1. A 2. B 3. B
【解析】
这是一篇应用文。大的热带雨林对地球的生态系统尤为重要，文章给我们介绍了四个热带雨林的特点，以及参观方式等。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据Daintree Rainforest部分下的If you are wondering why everything seems to share the name, the reason is simple-Richard Daintree was a famous Australian geologist and photographer.(如果你想知道为什么每样事物都是一样的名字，原因很简单——Richard Daintree是一个著名的澳大利亚地理学家和摄影家)可知，Daintree Rainforest是以澳大利亚地理学家和摄影家Richard Daintree的名字来命名的。A. Daintree Rainforest.符合以上说法，故选A项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Valdivian Temperate Rainforest 部分下的Getting to the rainforest is most accessible from Santiago, the capital of Chile, and a train ride or a bus is a preferred option.(从智利的首都圣地亚哥去热带雨林是最方便的，乘坐火车和公交车是首选)可知，去Valdivian Temperate Rainforest的首选是乘坐火车或者公交车。B. By train.(坐火车)符合以上说法，故选B项。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其第二部分的Plenty of options will take you there, including a ferry.(有很多选择可以带你去那儿，包括轮渡)，第三部分的Since it is on the coast, you can witness ice sheets and glaciers as well.(因为它在沿海，你还可以看到冰川和冰原)，第四部分的Visiting this rainforest is also recommended by using a tour company, preferably by finding one in the Republic of Congo. (游览这片雨林也可以通过旅行社来推荐，最好是在刚果共和国找一家旅游公司)和最后一部分的A tour guide is advised since going through the rainforest can be dangerous(因为穿过该雨林可能会有危险，所以建议和导游一起)可推测，本文很有可能出现在旅游公司的宣传手册上。B. A brochure.(一本手册)符合以上推测，故选B项。
B
When I sent my daughter, Emma, off for her freshman year of college a few years ago, I found myself affected by an unbelievable feeling of melancholy. Clearly, I'm not alone. Just last week, The Wall Street Journal reported that more than 90 percent of colleges offer to help moms and dads who are “struggling with the change.”
Between Thanksgiving, winter holiday, spring break and summer break, the first one out of my nest has come fluttering back home nearly every month of the year since she has been away. Good friends like to joke that they see more of her now than they did when she was a senior in high school. In the meantime, Emma calls, texts or e-mails me almost every day.
Given all this, missing Emma seems kind of silly；I've never really gotten the chance. So why, then, have I still felt on some level that I've experienced a great loss?
All summer long before Emma left that first year, I took Emma out for countless mother-daughter breakfasts, lunches, coffees and walks. At the same time, I seemed to find fault with Emma all the time. In my eyes, Emma had spent the weeks leading up to school going out with her friends too much, staying out way too late, making too big a mess, not working enough and, for goodness sake, certainly not spending enough time with me!
Although it's taken quite a while to realize what was happening, I now understand that my unhappiness and anxiety are not a reflection of how much time Emma and I spend together. Regardless of how often she comes home, or how many times a day we chat or text, Emma is now gone in a far grander sense. She is well on the road to adulthood, and from this, she will never return.
4. What does the underlined word “melancholy” in paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Fierce anger. B. Deep sadness.
C. Extreme excitement. D. Great satisfaction.
5. Why does it seem silly for the author to miss her daughter?
A. They keep in touch frequently. B. Friends like to make fun of her.
C. Emma has grown up to an adult. D. Other parents don't behave like this.
6. What actually made the author overly worried?
A. The untidiness of Emma's room. B. The passing of Emma's childhood.
C. Taking Emma out all too often. D. Spending little time with Emma.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. Changes in the Parent-Child Relationship B. The Most Concerned Parents of All Time
C. Growing Pains for College Students D. Struggling to Let Go of My Daughter
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. B 7. D
【解析】
这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要记叙了几年前，作者送女儿Emma去上大学时，发现自己很悲伤。并且在报道中发现自己不是唯一一个有这种感受的家长。作者于是分析了让自己产生这种失落感的原因，最终发现是Emma童年的逝去让自己感到失落，女儿如今已经很好地走在了成年的路上，从此，她再也回不去了。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。根据后文Clearly, I'm not alone. Just last week, The Wall Street Journal reported that more than 90 percent of colleges offer to help moms and dads who are “struggling with the change.”可知显然，我并不孤单。就在上周，《华尔街日报》报道称，超过90%的大学提供帮助，帮助那些“在变化中挣扎”的父母。由此可知，几年前，当作者送女儿Emma去上大学一年级时，作者发现自己被一种难以置信的悲伤情绪所感染。划线单词意思为“深深的悲伤”。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中In the meantime, Emma calls, texts or e-mails me almost every day.可知与此同时，Emma几乎每天都给我打电话、发短信或电子邮件。以及第三段中Given all this, missing Emma seems kind of silly…可知考虑到这一切，想念艾玛似乎有点傻……由此可知，作者想念她的女儿会显得很愚蠢因为他们经常保持联系。故选A。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段Although it's taken quite a while to realize what was happening, I now understand that my unhappiness and anxiety are not a reflection of how much time Emma and I spend together. Regardless of how often she comes home, or how many times a day we chat or text, Emma is now gone in a far grander sense. She is well on the road to adulthood, and from this, she will never return.可知虽然花了相当长的时间才意识到发生了什么，但我现在明白，我的不快乐和焦虑并不是我和Emma在一起的时间多寡的反映。不管她回家的频率有多高，也不管我们每天有多少次聊天或发短信，Emma现在在更大的意义上来说，已经不在了。她已经很好地走在了成年的路上，从此，她再也回不去了。由此可知，让作者过度担心的原因是Emma童年的逝去。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段中When I sent my daughter, Emma, off for her freshman year of college a few years ago, I found myself affected by an unbelievable feeling of melancholy.可知几年前，当我送女儿艾玛去上大学一年级时，我发现自己被一种难以置信忧郁情绪所感染。结合文章主要记叙了几年前，作者送女儿Emma去上大学时，发现自己很悲伤。并且在报道中发现自己不是唯一一个有这种感受的家长。作者于是分析了让自己产生这种失落感的原因，最终发现是Emma童年的逝去让自己感到失落，女儿如今已经很好地走在了成年的路上，从此，她再也回不去了。由此可知，D选项“挣扎着放开我的女儿”最符合文章标题，故选D。
C
On my fourth day in a self-driving car, I finally felt comfortable enough to let it stop itself. Before then, I'd allowed the car-a Volvo S90 sedan-to control the direction, with my hands still on the wheel, and to adjust speed in traffic. By Day 4, I was ready to make a jump into the future.
With the car traveling on a busy road, I activated the driverless mode. Soon, a traffic light turned red. For a split second, I prepared to get on the brakes. There was no need. The cameras and computers in the Volvo recognized the traffic conditions and smoothly began applying the brake.
If you're anything like most people, you're familiar with this anxiety. Almost 80 percent of Americans fear traveling in a self-driving car, a recent survey found.
Researchers at the University of Chicago have conducted some clever experiments studying the phenomenon. They asked participants to complete tasks and compare their performance with a computer system's. After the computer made a mistake, people were unwilling to use it again. After the people made mistakes, their self-confidence wouldn't change. It didn't matter that the human beings made more mistakes than the computer. So it is with driving. More than 37,000 Americans died in crashes last year, most from human error. The death count from cars goes beyond that from guns. So if you are shocked and angry by guns and want things to change, you should feel the same about car crashes.
Technology creates an opportunity to save lives. Computers don't get drunk or distracted by text messages, and they don't have blind spots. Just look at commercial airlines: Automation has helped all but get rid of deadly crashes among American air carriers. The last one happened in 2009.
The technology for self-driving cars still isn't good enough. But it is improving rapidly. Within a few years, many cars will have advanced crash-avoidance systems and driving will be revolutionized sooner than many people now understand.
8. How does the author introduce the topic?
A. By offering a piece of news. B. By giving background information.
C. By describing an experience. D. By introducing a latest car.
9. What can be learnt about the participants of the experiments?
A. They tended to accept the computer's faults.
B. They seemed to care little about their own mistakes.
C. They felt less confident after making mistakes.
D. They performed better than computer systems.
10. The author mentioned commercial airlines___________.
A. to prove the advantage of technology B. to assess the security of driverless cars
C. to find fault with computers D. to advertise for the commercial airlines
11. What does the author expect of the self-driving car?
A. I'll avoid deadly crashes entirely. B. It'll occupy the market in a short time.
C. It'll be bettered in every possible way. D. It'll be popularized sooner than expected.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章中作者先是通过自己驾驶自动汽车的经历来说明了最近的一项调查发现，近80%的美国人害怕乘坐自动驾驶汽车。而芝加哥大学的研究人员进行了一些巧妙的实验来研究这一现象，结果发现电脑出了错误后，人们就不愿再用它了。当人们犯了错误之后，他们的自信并不会改变。文章还说明了电脑技术的优势以及作者对自动驾驶汽车的期待。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章前三段主要描述了作者第四天驾驶自动驾驶汽车时的经过，在路上，交通灯变红了刹那间，作者准备踩刹车，这是没有必要的，沃尔沃车上的摄像头和电脑识别出了交通状况，并开始平稳地刹车。结合第三段中Almost 80 percent of Americans fear traveling in a self-driving car, a recent survey found.可知最近的一项调查发现，近80%的美国人害怕乘坐自动驾驶汽车。第四段中则开始论述文章的主题。由此可推知，作者通过描述一个自身经历来引入主题。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中They asked participants to complete tasks and compare their performance with a computer system's. After the computer made a mistake, people were unwilling to use it again. After the people made mistakes, their self-confidence wouldn't change. It didn't matter that the human beings made more mistakes than the computer.可知他们要求参与者完成任务，并将他们的表现与电脑系统进行比较。电脑出了错误后，人们就不愿再用它了。当人们犯了错误之后，他们的自信不会改变。人类犯的错误比计算机多并不重要。由此可推知，实验参与者似乎对自己的错误毫不在意。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中Technology creates an opportunity to save lives. Computers don't get drunk or distracted by text messages, and they don't have blind spots.Just look at commercial airlines: Automation has helped all but get rid of deadly crashes among American air carriers.可知技术创造了拯救生命的机会。电脑不会喝醉或被短信分心，也没有盲点。看看商业航空公司:自动化几乎帮助所有美国航空公司摆脱了致命的坠机事故.由此可推知，作者提到商业航空公司是为了证明技术的优势。故选A。
11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中The technology for self-driving cars still isn't good enough. But it is improving rapidly. Within a few years, many cars will have advanced crash-avoidance systems and driving will be revolutionized sooner than many people now understand.可知自动驾驶汽车的技术还不够好。但它正在迅速改善。几年之内，许多汽车将拥有先进的防撞系统，驾驶技术将比现在人们所了解的更快地发生革命性变化。由此可推知，作者对自动驾驶汽车的期望是它会比预期更早地普及。故选D。
【点睛】推理判断题要求考生在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上，做出一定的判断和推理，从而得出文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理判断题属于主观性较强的高层次阅读理解题，做这类题目时，同学们应严格依据作者所陈述的细节、事实以及作者的措词、态度和语气等，找出能够表露作者思想倾向和感情色彩的词语，然后利用自己已获得的相关知识进行推理判断，从而得出符合逻辑的结论。以本文第二题为例，根据第四段中They asked participants to complete tasks and compare their performance with a computer system's. After the computer made a mistake, people were unwilling to use it again. After the people made mistakes, their self-confidence wouldn't change. It didn't matter that the human beings made more mistakes than the computer.可知他们要求参与者完成任务，并将他们的表现与电脑系统进行比较。电脑出了错误后，人们就不愿再用它了。当人们犯了错误之后，他们的自信不会改变。人类犯的错误比计算机多并不重要。由此可推知，实验参与者似乎对自己的错误毫不在意。故选B。
D
We've all spent time in a hospital, whether through medical issues of our own or those of a loved one. And while we're used to seeing the doctors hurry in and out of the room, displaying varying degrees of attention, it's the constant and reliable presence of the nursing staff and their professionalism that gives the most confidence and relief to those in the room.
So, while doctors and surgeons tend to get most spotlight, nurses are really at the forefront of patient care. They are often called upon to make important, life-saving decisions multiple times a day and work closely with doctors to analyze records and test results to advise on treatment. It's the nurses that are frequently responsible for identifying a condition and matching the right specialist doctor to a patient, and it's the nurses that are often the first on the scene to treat people in an emergency.
A career in Nursing brings job security, a good wage, career mobility, and chance to decide your own career path. You can work part or full time according to your preference. You can be flexible on work location and specialism. If a particular area interests you, you can explore that as there will always be the need for quality nurses across the medical spectrum(医学光谱)with a passion for their work. Jobs in the field are in high demand, with significant opportunities to learn, grow and reach senior leadership positions. However, if you want to undertake a career in Nursing, a good education is compulsory.
The University of Texas at El Paso School of Nursing offers high quality and affordable undergraduate and graduate programs reinforced by talented faculty(全体教师), strong clinical partnerships and advanced simulation(模拟)technology. Students do gain much real experience before working in a hospital. Adelphi's College of Nursing and Public Health provides students with a top-rated, comprehensive education grounded in practice, theory and creativity. They are devoted to transforming students' lives through small classes with world-class faculty, hands-on learning and creative ways to support academic and career success. The Wayne State University College of Nursing, attaching special importance to first-hand experience, is dedicated to providing the highest quality education to a diverse population of graduate students. Graduates from the college are prepared to be nurse leaders in research, education and practice.

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。
Let's face it: The last hour of anyone's workday is not always fruitful. As the hours of peak productivity start to decline, most people begin watching the clock, waiting for nothing.____16____“How positively you end your professional day can promote success both inside and outside of the office,” says Randi Levin, a transitional life strategist. Let's see how successful people end their workday with a bang.
Successful people reflect on their accomplishments. While many of us spend our last hour of work making a to-do list for tomorrow, they review the day they just had, instead.____17____Similarly, Levin recommends writing down the day's wins rather than setbacks or to-dos, as well as reviewing your list of successes once a month. It will prove your professional growth and bring more joy into your job.
Also, successful people brainstorm solutions for today's setbacks.____18____Instead, they end their day by thinking carefully about the problems they met, brainstorming possible solutions, and then leaving it for tomorrow. They will settle those problems after a good night's sleep.
____19____Rather than detailing the tasks that need to get done, this kind of list encourages people to focus on finding solutions for their projects. “Forget the horrible 'to-do' list,” Levin says, “before heading to happy hour, write down three to five goals you have for the next 24 hours.____20____It will provide you with not only a concrete and positive way to begin tomorrow, but also it will allow you to see much more possibilities.”
A. This list is a promise to yourself.
B. Successful people make a to-do list.
C. It will make people understand the problems better.
D. They never bring the day's failures home with them.
E. Another work these people do is to create an action list.
F. But ending the workday with purpose can make a difference.
G. They typically choose a case and consider what led to that success.
【答案】16. F 17. G 18. D 19. E 20. A
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了如何充分利用你工作的最后一个小时：回顾一天的成就，集思广益解决今天的挫折，安排一次与自己的日常会议，创建一个行动列表。
【16题详解】
根据后文“How positively you end your professional day can promote success both inside and outside of the office,” says Randi Levin, a transitional life strategist. Let's see how successful people end their workday with a bang.可知过渡人生策略师Randi Levin说:“以积极的态度结束一天的工作，可以促进你在办公室内外的成功。”让我们来看看成功人士是如何用“砰”的一声结束一天的工作的。由此可知，本句与上文发生转折，强调有目的地结束一天工作，故F选项“但是有目的地结束一天的工作是有意义的”符合上下文语境，故选F。
【17题详解】
根据后文Similarly, Levin recommends writing down the day's wins rather than setbacks or to-dos, as well as reviewing your list of successes once a month.可知类似地，Levin建议你写下当天的成就，而不是挫折或待办事项，并且每个月回顾一次你的成功清单。由此可知，成功人士会回顾自己的一天，并思考是什么导致了成功，这对其他人来说有借鉴意义。故G选项“他们通常会选择一个案例，并考虑是什么导致了成功”符合上下文语境，故选G。
【18题详解】
根据后文Instead, they end their day by thinking carefully about the problems they met, brainstorming possible solutions, and then leaving it for tomorrow. They will settle those problems after a good night's sleep.可知相反，他们在一天结束的时候会仔细思考他们遇到的问题，集思广益可能的解决方案，然后把它留到明天。他们会在好好睡一觉后解决这些问题。由此可知，本句与下文的内容相反，指的是成功的人从不把一天的失败带回家，而是在一天结束的时候会仔细思考他们遇到的问题，想出解决方案，然后第二天再去解决。故D选项“他们从不把一天的失败带回家”符合上下文语境，故选D。
【19题详解】
根据后文Rather than detailing the tasks that need to get done, this kind of list encourages people to focus on finding solutions for their projects.可知这类清单鼓励人们专注于为自己的项目寻找解决方案，而不是详细列出需要完成的任务。由此可知，本句是在说明成功人会列出行动列表，后文中this kind of list可对应到E选项中an action list。故E选项“这些人做的另一项工作是创建一个行动列表”符合上下文语境，故选E。
【20题详解】
根据后文It will provide you with not only a concrete and positive way to begin tomorrow, but also it will allow you to see much more possibilities.可知它不仅会为你明天的开始提供一个具体而积极的方式，而且还会让你看到更多的可能性。由此可知，此处是在说明这个行动清单的重要性——清单是对自己的承诺。故A选项“这个清单是对你自己的承诺”符合上下文语境，故选A。
第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）
第一节（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）

这是一篇说明文。鸡蛋是很好的早餐，可以用不同的方法烹饪。然而，引起争论的一个话题是为什么棕色鸡蛋通常比白色鸡蛋更贵。文章解释了鸡为什么会有各种颜色的蛋的原因。有人指出尽管鸡蛋有时看起来和价格不同，但蛋壳的颜色与母鸡的品种有关，不管你喜欢什么，不要根据蛋壳的颜色来判断一个鸡蛋。
【41题详解】
考查动词语态。本句中主语与谓语动词构成被动关系，且can后跟动词原形。故填be cooked。
【42题详解】

【43题详解】

【44题详解】

【47题详解】
考查副词。此处修饰上文动词price“给……定价”应用副词differently，表示“不同地”。故填differently。
【48题详解】
考查连词。句意：营养与饮食学院的媒体发言人Malina Linkas Malkani表示，虽然鸡蛋的外观和价格有时会有所不同，但要知道蛋壳的颜色与母鸡的品种有关，而不是鸡蛋的营养成分、风味成分或蛋壳的厚度。结合上下文语境可知此处表示选择应用连词or，表示“或者”。故填or。

【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。主要记叙了一个星期天下午，一只鸽子迷路飞到了作者家的阳台上，作者和父母帮助它找到主人的故事。
【详解】1.考查副词。修饰动词watch应用副词excitedly，表示“激动地”。故excited改为excitedly。
2.考查冠词。句意：我的父母和我正在看电视，突然，我看到一只鸽子在阳台上。pigeon为可数名词，此处表示泛指，pigeon是以辅音因素开头的，应用不定冠词a，故the改为a。
3.考查名词的数。foot为可数名词，鸽子有两只脚应用复数形式。故foot改为feet。
4.考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知refuse在句子应用非谓语动词形式，且与逻辑主语It构成主动关系，故用现在分词作状语。故refuse改为refusing。
5.考查动词语态。句意：意识到它肯定是在回家的路上迷路了，我设法打电话给鸽子协会寻求帮助。it与lost为主动关系，用主动语态，故去掉been。

9.考查连词。句意：没过多久，鸽子的主人收到了消息，就来把鸽子带了回去。结合上下文可知此处为承接关系，应用连词and。故but改为and。
10.考查代词。句意：我的父母和我都为我们所做的感到高兴。both表示“两者都”，此处“父母和我”数量大于二应用代词all。故both改为all。

【答案】Dear Peter,
Knowing that you are interested in my taking online courses during my winter holiday, I'm writing to tell you something about it.
During the winter holiday, my school offered us a wide range of online courses, including Chinese, maths, English and other courses we usually take at school. Every day, I attended lectures according to the time schedule. The best part was that I could replay them if I didn't understand! Meanwhile, there existed some disadvantages.

In short I really appreciate the online courses, which enriched my life in the holiday.
Yours,
Li Hua
