But do you really know about them well?GuernicaPablo Picasso's cubist (立体派的) style of painting has created many wonders. Guernica is, perhaps, the best work of art by this great Spanish artist. In 1937, the German and Italian warplanes bombed the city of Guernica, taking many innocent lives. The government asked Picasso to create a painting about the bombings and sufferings of people. This brought the best out of Picasso.The Starry NightIf you ask an art lover to pick two of the best works by Vincent van Gogh, The Starry Night would certainly be one among them. This bright and colorful painting was completed in the year 1889. The view outside Vincent's window at night­time attracted him and he went on to create this painting. However, he actually painted The Starry Night during the daytime.Sistine MadonnaAlmost each of Raphael's works is known to be simple and aesthetic (唯美的). There are no better words to describe the Sistine Madonna! This is one of the Madonnas painted by Raphael. Pope Julius demanded Raphael create the painting in 1512. According to history books, when the famous Italian artist Correggio first laid eyes on the piece, he was moved to tears.Whistler's MotherJames McNeill Whistler was an American­born artist, who lived in London. Whistler's Mother is the most famous work by this American artist. The most popular story surrounding this painting is that a model could not make it to the studio of the artist and then his mother took the place of that model. The artist wanted to paint the character in a standing pose, but had to change his mind due to the bad health of his mother.语篇解读本文是一篇应用文。本文主要介绍了四幅名画背后的故事。1What is the theme of the painting Guernica?AThe war.BWarplanes.CThe city scenery.DLife of ordinary people.解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The government asked Picasso to create a painting about the bombings and sufferings of people.可知，正确答案为A。答案：A2What do we know about The Starry Night?AIt was brightly colored.BIt was painted in the night.CIt was considered Vincent's last work.DIt was created at the government's request.解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“This bright and colorful painting was completed in the year 1889.可知，?星空?这幅画多彩、艳丽。答案：A3What's the author's purpose in writing the text?ATo find the similarities between these paintings.BTo encourage us to appreciate these paintings.CTo describe what these paintings look like.DTo tell some stories behind these paintings.解析：写作目的题。根据文章内容可知，本文主要讲述了四幅名画背后的故事，故正确答案为D。答案：DBWhen Christa Pare's father, Jim, died of cancer, finding a home for Tundra became the first thing to be done. The five­year­old dog had been Jim's constant companion. Pare had asked two of Jim's good friends to adopt the dog, but there was a problem: The couple lived in Thunder Bay, a 13­hour drive from Pare's home in Renfrew, Ont. It would cost more than $800 to fly to Thunder Bay, and Pare, a radio host, was already sparing extra time in the booth to pay for funeral costs.A relative who had heard of Pare's dilemma directed her to the Facebook page of Furry Hobos N Hiway Heroes, hoping the group might help. The four­year­old organization is the brainchild of Margaret Foster Hyde, a retired trucker who dreamed up the plan of pairing dogs in need with long­distance truck drivers when she realized how expensive it would be to get her newly adopted dog, Barkley, from Sudbury to Thunder Bay. Back then, Foster Hyde called up a friend who worked the route and asked if Barkley could hitch (免费搭便车) a ride.When Pare heard back from Foster Hyde, she cried. “Beyond the cost, to have to crate (将某物装入大木箱) Tundra and put him on a plane by himself after he lost his best friend would have been awful， she says. “Many thanks to Foster Hyde.At her home, Foster Hyde has three whiteboards set up in the living room. One tracks the drivers' routes, one is for the dogs who need rides and one is for the dogs already on the way. Foster Hyde estimates that they've transported about 300 to 400 dogs across Canada and the United States.As for Tundra's comparatively short­distance trip from Renfrew, it was made possible by a driver named Greg Rumbolt. The instant Rumbolt opened the cab's door, Tundra leaped out onto the snow to meet his new owners.语篇解读本文是一篇记叙文。Pare的父亲去世后，她决定把陪伴父亲多年的狗狗Tundra送给父亲的好友收养，可是遥远的路途让Pare心生忧虑，最后是Foster Hyde帮助了她。Foster Hyde一直在帮助有同样需求的狗狗，让它们搭便车。4What probably made Pare worried after her father died?AShe failed to have her father's dog adopted.BShe found it difficult for her to make a living.CShe had to move to a faraway city Thunder Bay.DShe couldn't afford to send Tundra to his new home.解析：细节理解题。根据第一段的最后一句可知，把Tundra送去朋友家需要花一大笔路费，而Pare由于给父亲办葬礼已经很拮据了，所以她支付不起送狗狗的路费。答案：D5Why did Pare cry after hearing back from Foster Hyde?AShe missed her dear father very much.BShe was deeply moved by Foster Hyde.CShe wouldn't send Tundra to Renfrew.DShe couldn't see the dog any longer.解析：推理判断题。Pare正在为送狗狗的事情担忧，听到Foster Hyde愿意帮助，她非常感动。答案：B6What's the use of the whiteboards in Foster Hyde's living room?APresenting information about dog owners.BMaking an advertisement to sell her dogs.CHelping make a plan for transporting dogs.DMaking a record of the dogs she has helped.解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“At her home, Foster Hyde has three whiteboards set up in the living room. One tracks the drivers' routes, one is for the dogs who need rides and one is for the dogs already on the way.可知，Foster Hyde用这三块白板来把需要帮助的狗狗与各条行车线路的司机进行匹配。答案：C7What can be the best title for this text?AA Retired Trucker Helps Dogs in Need of a RideBAdopting a Dog Makes Your Life HappyCA Small Kindness Changes the WorldDIt Costs too Much to Have a Dog解析：标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了Foster Hyde帮助Pare把狗狗送到新家的故事，她一直在帮助有同样需求的狗狗，让它们搭便车。答案：ACThe majority of Americans with dogs are more likely to call themselves “pet parents than “pet owners. There are more of these parents than ever. In big cities such as San Francisco and Seattle, owned dogs outnumber children. The ways in which companies are profiting from the trend are also growing.Not to mention there's various organic pet food on sale, this year Americans spent more than $400 million on Halloween clothes for pets. Overall, annual spending on pet food and products in America has risen by around 40% over the past ten years, to $43 billiona remarkable growth rate for an already large industry.Now a pack of businesses have found a fresh opportunity. Much as Airbnb has offered travelers an alternative to staying in hotels, two firms, Rover and DogVacay, want to give pet owners an alternative to kennels (托犬所) when they are away from home.Customers can search for a nearby sitter and pay for their dogs to stay in that person's home. The cost is around $30 a night, with the majority of that going to the sitter and around a fifth to the companymuch less than you would spend in checking your dog into a kennels. The other big selling point is that pets receive better treatment. There are ways, apparently, to evaluate dog hosts to find real pet lovers: only around 15% of those who apply to serve as sitters are approved.Companies offering homestays to dogs are now appearing in many different countries, including Australia, Brazil and Britain. And unlike Airbnb, which pulls in customers thanks to its presence in lots of markets that people want to travel to, the network effect for services like DogVacay is local. Despite having anticipated (预测) the trend early, such firms may never achieve the same scale (规模) as Airbnb. 语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。一些互联网公司为宠物提供全新的寄养方式。8What's the new trend according to the text?AAmericans care little about the health of pets.BIt's natural to spend less money on pet products.CMany new kinds of organic pet food are on sale.DMore and more people treat pets as family members.解析：细节理解题。根据第一段和第二段的内容可知，养狗的人越来越多，宠物狗的数量超过了小孩的数量，人们把宠物狗当成了家庭成员，愿意为它们消费。答案：D9How do Rover and DogVacay make sure the dogs get better treatment?ABy charging a high price.BBy spending more on pet food.CBy carefully choosing pet sitters.DBy providing professional training.解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The other big selling point is that pets receive better treatment. There are ways, apparently, to evaluate dog hosts to find real pet lovers: only around 15% of those who apply to serve as sitters are approved.可知，这两家公司会严格挑选照看宠物的人以保证狗狗得到更好的照料。答案：C10What can be learned from the last paragraph?AOne day customers can travel with their pets.BAirbnb has planned to get a share in pet industry.CIt's hard for companies like Airbnb to go global.DDogVacay has its branches in Australia, Brazil and Britain.解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可知，像DogVacay这样的公司效劳的市场其实非常有限，寄养狗狗的市场只局限于当地，因此它很难像Airbnb那样成为全球性公司。答案：C11What might be the best title for the text?AThe Advantages of Keeping PetsBA New Model of Raising Your DogsCFinding a New Home for Your DogsDThe Sharing EconomyPets' “Airbnb 解析：标题归纳题。本文主要讲了一种全新的共享型的狗狗寄养模式，D项最适合作为本文标题。答案：DDWhen you start working on something but don't finish it, thoughts of the unfinished work continue to jump into your mind even when you've moved on to other things. Psychologists (心理学家) refer to this psychological phenomenon as the Zeigarnik effect. The effect was first observed by a Russian psychologist named Bluma Zeigarnik. While sitting in a busy restaurant in Vienna, she noted the waiters had better memories of unpaid orders. Once the bill was paid, however, the waiters had difficulty remembering the exact details of the orders.In research, participants were asked to complete simple tasks such as putting together puzzles, or solving math problems. Half of the participants were interrupted halfway through these tasks. After an hour­long delay, Zeigarnik asked the participants to give an account of what they'd been working on. She discovered that those who had their work interrupted were twice as likely to remember what they had been doing as those who had actually completed the tasks.We can use this effect to our advantage. For example, if you're struggling to memorize something important, momentary interruptions might actually work to your advantage. Rather than simply remember the information over and over again, review it several times and then take a break. While you're focusing on other things, you'll find yourself mentally returning to the information you were studying.We often put off tasks until the last moment, only completing them in a rush at the last possible moment. Unfortunately, this tendency can lead to heavy stress and even poor performance. One way to overcome this is to put the Zeigarnik effect to work. Start by taking the first step, no matter how small. Once you've begunbut not finishedyour work, you'll find yourself thinking of the task until, at last, you finish it. You might not finish it all at once, but each small step you take puts you closer to your final goal.语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种常见的心理现象蔡加尼克效应，那么这种心理现象对我们的生活与学习有什么启示呢？12What does the Zeigarnik effect refer to?AWaiters tend to have good memories.BOnce interrupted, one will forget things easily.CMost people can't focus on one thing for a long time.DPeople remember unfinished tasks better than completed ones.解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中Zeigarnik对效劳员的观察及结论以及第二段的实验结果可知，“蔡加尼克效应指人们对于尚未处理完的事情的印象比已处理完的事情的印象更加深刻。答案：D13What were all the participants required to do in the study?ADescribe their tasks.BExpress their feelings.CTest their intelligence.DDesign simple activities.解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Zeigarnik asked the participants to give an account of what they'd been working on可判断所有参与实验的人都被给予任务，一半的人任务被中断，剩余的人完成了任务，之后所有人都被要求描述自己的任务。答案：A14How should we study according to the Zeigarnik effect?ARepeat over and over again.BDivide up our study session.CFocus on several tasks at a time.DHave enough rest before studying.解析：推理判断题。根据第三段的“if you're struggling to memorize something important, momentary interruptions might actually work to your advantage. Rather than simply remember the information over and over again, review it several times and then take a break可知，我们应该分几个时间段学习。答案：B15What's the main idea of the last paragraph?AHow to get rid of heavy stress.BWhy we should set a final goal.CHow to break the habit of delaying work.DWhy we always complete tasks in a rush.解析：段落大意题。根据最后一段的内容可知，本段主要告诉我们如何有效利用“蔡加尼克效应来改善拖延症。答案：C.阅读七选五(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正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。In your life, is there anything that you're trying to run from? Maybe they're some responsibilities, some need­to­mend relationships or something from your past. The fact is that everyone feels the desire to escape at some point or the other. 16 It's just that the degree to which we escape differs.When you want to escape, you start looking out for ways that would make you forget the reality. Alcohol, keeping busy online and sleeping too much are common ways to avoid reality. For the time being, they do uplift you, making you forget the pain. 17 When you wake up after a really long sleep, you'll see your problem sitting right there in front of you. And at the end of the day, you still suffer.18 For example, meditating (沉思) is a great idea because when you start observing your thoughts, you'll notice the ones that keep coming up again and again. If they're positive, cherish them. If they're negative, question them. If you start paying attention to one, it'll disappear gradually and a new thought comes by. 19To overcome escapism, you also need to accept yourself. As we know, everyone makes mistakes and fails. But it isn't okay to get stuck in the failure. So don't be hard on yourself. 20 Let go of your past. All you need is a little forgiveness and a little acceptance.AActually we're all escapists.BBut the bad news is, that is all temporary.CInstead accept the failure and work over it.DIt gives a pleasurable feeling of being far from the problem.EThis helps make you realize your potential and bring you at peace.FTalk to them about what's troubling you to release the unpleasant emotions.GFortunately, there are some ways you can get over escapism and accept reality.语篇解读本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了防止逃避现实的方法。16解析：其实我们每个人都是逃避现实的人，只是程度不同而已，本空起承上启下的作用。答案：A17解析：根据下一句内容可判断这种效果是暂时的，因为问题还是存在，应选B项。答案：B18解析：根据空后的内容以及下一段的内容可知，这两段介绍了如何克服逃避现实，应选G项。答案：G19解析：本空介绍了“沉思这一方法的益处，应选E项。答案：E20解析：根据本空前的内容“So don't be hard on yourself.可知，作者建议“不要对自己过于苛刻，应该接受失败并克服它，应选C项。答案：C
