What is the purpose of collecting fish data?A. To explore the ocean.B To assist fishing industry.C. To learn the habits of fish.D. To improve fishing skills.K答 案H B K细节理解题。根据题干中的“collecting fish data”可以定位到文 章第二段,由该段第三句"The Saildrone operators will collect data to help set futurefishing seasons”可知,无人机操作员将收集数据,帮助设定未来的捕鱼季节,由 此推知,收集数据是为了帮助捕鱼业。XWhat is mainly discussed in Paragraph 3?A. The Saildrone9s advantages.B. The Saildroneappearance.C. The Saildronepower system.D. The Saildrone9s primary mission.K答案U A K段落大意题。结合题干信息可定位到第三段。本段提到海洋 无人机长23英尺,可以进行远程程序控制,每次航行长达一年,不需要任何燃 料,用风能和太阳能驱动传感器等,由此可知,本段主要讲述的是海洋无人机的What does the underlined word u trade-offv in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Debate.C. Reality.B. Reason.D. Balance.K答案I D K词义猜想题。由第五段第一句中的“It could be a significant saving” 可知,使用海洋无人机能节省很多钱。再由该段中的“But there is one thing.the fish detected below”可知,有一件事情海洋无人机做不到,但人类可以。比照理 解,即可推断出人类从海洋无人机处能得到的和不能得到的之间是一种平衡。据 此可以得出"trade-off"意思与D项接近,表示“权衡,协调”。HWhat can be inferred from the text?A. The Saildrone has a promising future.B - Hufnagle thinks nothing of the Saildrone.C. Manned ships will be completely replaced.D Production of seagoing robots is restricted.K答 案R A K推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知,预计今年Sail Drone 公司将使11个远洋航行机器人下水,为NOAA勘测不同的水域。据此可以得出, 海洋无人机的前景光明。A项符合题意。B项“Hufnagle认为海洋无人机缺乏为 奇”与第五段中Hufnagle所说的话不相符。C项“载人船只将被完全取代”与 第五段最后一句不相符。D项“远洋航行机器人的生产受到限制”文中并未有明 显的信息支持。ICAnyone who has ever taken chemistry has studied the periodic table (元素周期 表).Most people who have memorized the elements in the periodic table have probably not given any thought to who created it.In 1869, Dmitri Mendeleev published the very first periodic table.Although there were a few people who attempted to create a periodic table, Mendeleev's table was the most complete of all of them.Dmitri Mendeleev was born on February 8, 1834 in Tobolsk Governorate, the Russian Empire.His father was a teacher of philosophy and fine arts.Mendeleev was the youngest of more than a dozen children.His father lost his teaching position when he became blind.His mother had to go to work to support the family by restarting the family glass factory.That worked out until Dmitri Mendeleev was 15, when the factory burned down.As a teenager, Mendeleev was educated at Main Pedagogical Institute in Saint Petersburg, Russia.As a 21year-old in 1855, he wrote a textbook called Organic Chemistry and won the Demidov Prize, making him a major leader in the world of Russian chemistry education.Mendeleev earned a Master's degree in chemistry in 1856.On April 4,1862, right after he wrote his first book, Dmitri Mendeleev proposed (求 婚)to Feozva Nikitichna Leshcheva.The couple got married three weeks later at a church in Saint Petersburg.They ended their marriage nine years later after having a daughter.Nearly 20 years after he married his first wife, he got married to Anna Ivanova Popova.Mendeleev had four children from his marriage to Anna Popova Mendeleev.A couple of years before his death, Dmitri Mendeleev was awarded membership of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.Despite many scientists who worked on their own periodic tables ahead of Mendeleev, he has gone down in history as the father of the periodic table.K语篇解读学生们学习化学的时候都会学元素周期表,本文介绍了创造元素周期表的科学家门捷列夫的生平。25. What do we know about Dmitri Mendeleev's family from the text?A. His father was a chemistry teacher.B His mother became blind later.C Their factory burned down when Dmitri Mendeleev was 21.D. Dmitri Mendeleev was from a big family.K答 案I D K 推理判断题。 由第二段的 Mendeleev was the youngest of more than a dozen children,可知 D 正确。XWhat made Dmitri Mendeleev a major leader in Russian chemistry education?A.

The company was apparently able to achieve all this by working with chefs, food technologists and Swiss flavor company Givaudan. The Alt-Steak is created by mixing Redefined Meafs AltMuscle, AltFat, and AltBlood plantbased formulations (配方)in several layers. The end result is a highprotein, cholesterol free (零月旦固醇的) steak that looks, cooks and tastes like real meat.“The importance of using 3D-printing technology to achieve texture (质地),color and flavor-and the combinations between them-cannot be overstated.By using separate formulations for muscle, fat and blood, we can focus on each individual aspect of creating the perfect AltSteak product, “ Eshchar Ben Shitrit, CEO of Redefined Meat, said.“Since day one of the company, we have been working on creating a tasty and affordable plant-based alternative to steaks, “ Eshchar Ben -Shitrit added. “In order to ensure that a lot of people accepted and welcomed it, we knew that creating an alternative meat product that was both high in quality and nutritional composition would require new technologies and production processes never seen before in the food industry.”Alt-Steak is described as an "extremely complicated fbod“ where protein, fats, natural colors and flavors and more are arranged in a precise manner to make them perform like the equivalent (相同的)elements in a cow火 muscle.However, this alternative meat product comes with the advantage that it can be produced much faster than the real thing.To promote its alternative steak, Redefined Meat recently invited Israeli chef Assaf Granit for a tasting. Granit said that the taste of Alt-Steak was "almost identical” to the original, adding that, in his opinion, eight out of ten people wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a real steak and an AltSteak.K语篇解读Redefined Meat公司用自己最新的技术制作出了 3D打印牛排。26.

It published an article about the Alt-Steak in a newspaper.B It gave free samples to some restaurants.C. It held an eating competition in the city.D. It invited a chef to taste and comment on its AltSteak.K答 案U DK细节理解题。根据文章尾段的内容可知为了推销这种牛排,Redefined Meat请主厨Assaf Granit品尝了这种牛排,并给出了评价,故D项正 确。U34. What can be concluded about the company Redefined Meat from the text?A. It created the alternative steak on its own.B. It is the only company that has created the 3D-printed steak.C It worked on an alternative steak from the first day.D. It produces the 3D printers at the same time.K答 案H C K推理判断题。根据文章第四段Since day one of the company, we have been working on creating a tasty and affordable plantbased alternative to steaks可知Redefined Meat公司自成立第一天就开始研究牛排的替代品,故C 项正确。35 . What is the best title for the text?A. The Difference Between a Real Steak and a Fake OneB - How to Fulfill the Demand of VegetariansC. The World's First 3DPrinted Meatless SteakD The Importance of 3D - Printing TechnologyR答案CK文章标题题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了 Redefined Meat公司制作出的3D打印牛排的一些相关情况,如它的生产过程,同真正的牛排在 各方面的比拟,名厨对它的评价等等,故C项正确。 第二节(共5小题;每题2.5分,总分值12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两 项为多余选项。Nature soothes(抚慰)our stressed out souls.We know that nature is the best treatment, and new research suggests we can gain benefits while visiting parks.36 The study published in the International Journal of Environmental Health Research found that spending 20 minutes in a city park can make you happier, whether you use that time to exercise or not.“In general, we found park visitors reported having an improvement in emotional well-being (健康)after the park visit, “ the study's lead author, Professor Hon K. Yuen at the University of Alabama at Birmingham said in a statement/6 37 "Instead, we found time spent in the park is related to improved emotional well-being.For the study, 94 adults visited three city parks in Mountain Brook, Alabama, completing a questionnaire about their subjective well-being before and after their visits. 38 A visit of between 20 and 25 minutes showed the best results, with an increase of about 64% in the participants9 self-reported well-being, even if they didn't move a great deal in the park. 39The study group was truly small, as the study's co - author and another UAB professor, Gavin Jenkins, admitted. 40 The challenge facing cities is that there is increasing evidence about the value of city parks but we continue to see the decrease of these spaces.A. Something was used to track their physical activity.B. You usually visit a small green space in your neighborhood.C. However, its findings pointed out the importance of city parks.D. If you want to feel happier, you just need to exercise for 20 minutes in a park.E. The best part is that you needn't visit a national park or go far out of your way.F. This means people can benefit from visiting a nearby park, regardless of physical ability.G. But we didn't find levels of physical activity are linked to improved emotional well-being.K语篇解读X本文是说明文。研究发现参观公园会提升我们的幸福感。36. E艮据下文中的“spending 20 minutes in a city park can make you happier,whether you use that time to exercise or not”可知,在公园里待20分钟就能让你更 快乐,不管你是否利用那段时间来锻炼身体,故此处强调仅仅去公园就可以提高 情绪健康(状况),结合选项可知,E项符合语境。I37. G K根据空后的“Instead, we found time spent in the park is related to improved emotional well beingn可知,相反,我们发现在公园里度过的时间与 情绪健康(状况)改善有关,故可推知,空前表示的是另外一种情况,即“我们没 有发现身体活动水平与情绪健康(状况)改善有关",故G项符合语境/A K 根据空后的"A visit of between 20 and 25 minutes showed the best results 可知,20到25分钟的参观显示出最好的结果,故空前应说明调查的过程,故A 项”有一些东西被用来追踪他们的身体活动”与上下文联系紧密,符合逻辑。X38. F K根据上文内容可知,20到25分钟的参观显示出最好的结果,参与者 的幸福感增加了约64%,即使他们在公园里不怎么运动。F项”这意味着人们可 以从参观附近的公园中受益,无论他们的体能如何”是对上文的调查做出的总结, 并与第二段中的研究结果相呼应。故F项符合逻辑。HC K根据空前的"The study group was truly small, as the study's coauthor and another UAB professor, Gavin Jenkins, admitted” 可知,正如研究报告的合著 者,UAB的另一位教授Gavin Jenkins所说的那样,研究小组的规模确实很小, 而空后那么指出了当前城市面临的挑战,结合选项可知,C项“然而,发现指出了 城市公园的重要性”承接上下文J第三局部 语言运用(共两节,总分值30分)第一节(共15小题;每题1分,总分值15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最正确选项。The world's youngest DJ who is just two years old has thousands of fans thanks to his ability.Oratilwe Hlongwane, whose DJ name is AJ, is 41 learning to put together words, but the baby is already able to 42 and play music from a laptop and has become famous in South Africa.His ability has even 43 him special appearances, with fans 44 to hear his bass -heavy house music.His recent 45 at a supermarket near his home in Johannesburg 46 a large crowd as he moved his head to the 47 , with large headphones around his neck.His mother, Refiloe Marumo, 48 his success to his father Glen Hlongwane's decision to buy an iPad for his then unborn son.Mr.Hlongwane, a gymnastics coach and 49 DJ, had planned to download some educational apps for the child as well as a DJ app for himself.A mobile phone recording of him playing music was shared online and the youngster now has nearly 25, 000 Facebook 50 .
