Left-handedness is actually more common in the male population than in females. There are a number of myths about them.It is difficult for left-handed children to learn writing of the alphabet, without personal tutoring. Not true at all. Observe the left-handed toddler. Everyone else is more bothered about his left-handedness than he himself is. The left-handed child adapts to writing, drawing and all other activities that require him to hold a writing tool as early as the right-handed. In fact, many left-handed people display neater handwriting than their right-handed partners.Lefties have a lesser chance of surviving a hand-to-hand fight. This is anything but true. History bears witness to the advantage left-handedness had during hand-to-hand fights and even within the boxing ring. In fact, a common observation is that the left-handed fighter is able to strike a strong surprise attack on the open, unprotected right side.Left-handed people are many a time at the disadvantage of using tools designed for the right-handed. Well, this is true, but today, there is a whole range of tools and equipment being designed for left-handed people. Many right- handed tools can be molded to suit the needs of the left-handed craftsman. Even the computer mouse has been challenged in use and the touch pad provides a left-handed professional equal opportunity.Research shows that left-handed people are in fact high achievers. This is because their brains are structured to widen their abilities. A number of mathematical, artistic and sporting geniuses were and are left-handed. However, most left-handers over the world, might have, at some stage in their life, been on the receiving end of devalued comments regarding their choice of hand. I am sure this list and discussion about left-handed people would be reason enough to be proud of being left-handed.32. Compared to right-handed children, what can we learn about left-handed ones?A. They find it hard to learn writing.B. They are tired of the left-handedness.C. They are used to writing tools too late.D. They may have more beautiful handwriting.33. What advantage do lefties have in hand-to-hand fights?A. They could start a surprise attack with their left hands.B. They could attack their partners5 left sides surprisingly.C. They have a better chance to beat their partners in history.D. They are good at fighting especially within the boxing ring.34. What is the computer mouse mentioned to show us?A. Left-handed people are in fact high achievers. B. Left-handed people have many disadvantages. C. Many tools are designed for the left-handed. D. Many left-handed receive bad remarks daily. 35. What is the author's attitude to left-handedness?A. IndifferentB. ConfusedC. CriticalD. Favorable【答案】32.D33. A 34. C 35. D【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍关于左撇子的许多神话。【32题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段 “In fact, many left-handed people display neater handwriting than their right-handed partners.（事实上，许多左撇子的字写得比右撇子同伴更好。）”可知，很多左撇子孩子的字写得更漂亮。 故选D。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段 “In fact, a common observation is that the left-handed fighter is able to strike a strong surprise attack on the open, unprotected right side.（事实上，一个普遍的观察是，左撇子战斗者能够在张开 的、没有保护的右侧发动强烈的突然袭击。）”可知，左撇子在肉搏战中的优势是能够在右侧，用左手突 袭。故选A。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段 u Left-handed people are many a time at the disadvantage of using tools designed for the right-handed. Well, this is true, but today, there is a whole range of tools and equipment being designed for left-handed people. Many right-handed tools too are available, such that they can be molded to suit the needs of the left-handed craftsman. Even the computer mouse has been challenged in use and the touch pad provides a lefthanded professional equal opportunity.（左撇子很多时候在使用为右撇子设计的工具时处于劣势。嗯，这是 真的，但是今天，有各种各样的工具和设备是为左撇子设计的。也有许多右手工具可用，因此它们可以 模制以满足左撇子工匠的需求。甚至电脑鼠标在使用中也受到了挑战，触摸板为左撇子提供了专业平等 的机会。）”可知，本段主要说明现如今许多工具都是为左撇子设计的。所以推断作者提及鼠标是为了向 我们说明许多工具都是为左撇子设计的。故选C。【35题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段 “I am sure this list and discussion about left-handed people would be reason enough to be proud of being left-handed.（我相信这份名单和关于左撇子的讨论足以让我们为自己是左撇子 而自豪。）”可推断，作者对左撇子的态度是称赞的。故选D。第二节（共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。Sports day! These two words can inspire both joy and fear in the hearts of students everywhere. 36 And it's also the chance to bag a prize or two.

Many of them have non- competitive, sports days. They hope that by making sports days less competitive, children of all abilities will be encouraged to take part without fear of losing. Exercise and fitness is important for everyone, no matter how good at sport you are. 37However, some people feel that it's important that sport has winners and that learning to lose is just as important as learning how to win. 38 Particularly, on a sports day which is your chance to really prove yourself!39 According to a 2017 survey by Families Online, 82% of parents say they prefer “traditional” competitive sports days. Many adults feel that children can learn valuable lessons in both winning and losing. It's also an opportunity for some children to show off their physical and sporting skills.People have different ideas about whether it is the winning or the taking part that counts when it comes to school sports days 40 We want to know your ideas.A. What's the point if no one wins?B. Should sport just be about winning?C. For many, sports day can be a great day of fun.D. So, should School Sports Day be competitive or not?E.

D【解析】【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了人们对运动会是否要有输赢的不同观点。【36题详解】根据前文 “These two words can inspire both joy and fear in the hearts of students every where.（这两个字可以在 各地的学生心中激起喜悦和恐惧）”可知，本段会分别说喜欢运动和恐惧运动的人，再根据后文“For others, it might feel like having to take part in something they aren't good at.（对其他人来说，这可能就像不得 不参加他们不擅长的事情一样）”可知，后文讲过恐惧运动的人，所以空处应是喜欢运动的人，所以C项“For many, sports day can be a great day of fun.（对许多人来说，运动会是很有趣的一天）”符合文意。故选 C项。【37题详解】由上文 “They hope that by making sports days less competitive, children of all abilities will be encouraged to take part without fear of losing. Exercise and fitness is important for everyone, no matter how good at sport you are.（他们希望通过减少运动日 竞争性，激发所有能力的孩子参加运动，而不必担心失败。运动和健身对 每个人来说都很重要，无论你在运动方面有多擅长）”可知，上文讲非竞争性运动让所有孩子不必担心失 败，尽情地运动，这是它的益处，E 选项 uEveryone should be celebrated for trying and playing their part.（每 个人都应该为自己的努力和发挥作用而庆祝）”承接上文讲非竞争性运动给孩子带来的益处。故选E项。【38题详解】由上文 However, some people feel that it's important that sport has winners and that learning to lose is just as important as learning how to win.（然而，一些人认为运动有赢家很重要，学会输和学会如何赢一样重要）” 和下文 uParticularly, on a sports day which is your chance to really prove yourself!.（尤其是在运动日，这是你 真正证明自己的机会！）”可知，上下文讲赢的重要性，A选项“What's the point if no one wins?（如果没有 人赢，那有什么意义?）”体现了对嬴得看重。故选A项。【39题详解】分析设空可知，空处位于段首，起到引领全段的作用，是对本段的高度概括，所以根据后文“According to a 2017 survey by Families Online, 82% of parents say they prefer traditional“ competitive sports days. Many adults feel that children can learn valuable lessons in both winning and losing.（据家庭在线 2017 年的一项 调查，82%的父母表示他们更喜欢“传统的”竞技体育日。许多成年人认为孩子可以从输赢中学到宝贵的 经验）”可知，本段是在讲大部分人都同意上文提到的观点，特别是父母，所以F项“There are lots of people who agree with the idea一parents in particular!（有很多人同意这个想法，尤其是父母!）”符合文意。故 选F项。【40题详解】根据后文“We want to know yoiw ideas.（我们想知道你的想法）”可推断，空处应是提了一个问题，此处才 会说想知道你的想法，再根据前文 uPeople have different ideas about whether it is the winning or the taking part that counts when it comes to school sports days.（当谈到学校运动会时，到底是获胜还是参与才是重要 的，人们有不同的看法）”可知，本段主要是在讨论学校运动会，所以应该是针对学校运动会提问。所以 D项“So, should School Sports Day be competitive or not?（那么，学校运动会是否应该是竞争性的呢?）”符 合文意。故选D项。第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节完形填空（共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A,B,C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。My name is Ally Del Monte.
