第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分 50 分)
第一节(共 15 小题;每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项
A
Here are four of the late bloomers (大器晚成者) who made great achievements later in life.
Judi Dench
Although Judi Dench has been a standout in her work for theatre and TV during her entire working career, she only became a household name in her 60s. Judi received seven Oscar nominations (提名) when she was over 60. She won Best Actress in a Supporting Role in 1999 for Shakespeare in Love.
Grandma Moses
Anna Mary Robertson Moses, better known as Grandma Moses, started painting in her 70s. She decided to give painting a go when she could no longer hold an embroidery needle (刺绣针) due to her illness. Her works were spotted by an art collector, who bought all her paintings and displayed them at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
James Parkinson
At the age of 62, James Parkinson identified Parkinson’s disease (帕金森病). His An Essay on the Shaking Palsy led to our general understanding of Parkinson’s today. Although others had previously written about shaking palsy, Parkinson’s descriptions were so in-depth that he inspired other medical scientists to study the disease.
Kathryn Joosten
Kathryn was a nurse and mum, but after her marriage failed she made up her mind to pursue her dream of being an actress. Close to the age of 60, she threw herself into the industry and achieved success. Since then she has appeared on TV shows like Desperate Housewives. She has also won two Emmy Awards.
1. Who is the oldest when he/she achieved success
A. Kathryn Joosten. B. James Parkinson. C. Grandma Moses. D. Judi Dench.
2. What do we know about Kathryn Joosten
A. She became an actress after retiring. B. She was a well-known nurse at the age of 60.
C. She gave up her dream for her broken marriage. D. She decided to act after her failed marriage.
3. What can we conclude from the stories of the four persons
A. Old people are more likely to succeed. B. One is never too old to learn.
C. Chances favour only the prepared mind. D. Age is no barrier to success.
B
The night before my math test, I felt like I couldn’t do anything right. All I wanted to do was skip school (逃学). I didn’t feel prepared. I was so stressed out from balancing soccer and school. Although I studied for over 5 hours reviewing everything, I went to sleep with a feeling that I was going to fail. I hate failure. It’s the worst feeling ever. What was wrong with me I should have believed in myself and expected to get an A, but my mind was in a different direction. The next morning, I walked to school not ready to conquer this day.
I got into the exam room and forgot almost everything that I studied. It disappeared from my mind like dropping cotton candy into water. I felt dizzy (头晕的). It was like I could see myself in the future fearing the moment when I finally got my score. I decided to take a bathroom break. It might help me cool off and get everything I studied back into my mind. It didn’t work. Standing in the bathroom I felt as if I was never going to succeed. But I had to return to the room. At last, I just wrote down as much as I knew and turned in my test.
After the test I heard everyone else in the class saying how easy the test was. My eyes twitched (抽动) and I felt a tear flowing down.Why did I have anxiety Why couldn’t I be normal
I texted my parents, saying I was a failure. They replied, “I’m sorry you didn’t do well. But you can’t always be perfect. Doing your best is all that matters.” I learned a lesson from what they said, I guess. I can’t always be perfect. It’s important to study hard, but I shouldn’t stick to perfectionism. Having a positive mentality is the main way I will get a good grade. Science test tomorrow and I will think positive.
4. What was the author’s major problem before the math test
A. He lacked confidence in himself. B. He failed to make preparations.
C. He spent little time in studying. D. He had little interest in math.

6. How did the author feel after hearing his classmates’ conversation
A. Relaxed. B. Sad. C. Touched. D. Excited.
7. What lesson can we learn from the author’s experience
A. Paying no attention to test score. B. Studying in a positive way to be perfect.
C. Owning a suitable attitude to the test. D. Trying to become perfect step by step.
C
While dogs openly demonstrate joy or displeasure through wide smiles and grimaces (怪相), recognizing a cat’s emotions from its face is often hard, even for its owner. Now researchers from Canada’s University of Guelph claim that stoic (高冷的) as they may appear, cats also express emotions on their faces.
For their study, Professors Lee Niel and Georgia Mason found 6,300 people from 85 countries. The participants were asked a few questions and then watched 20 short cat videos. Each video highlighted just the cat’s face, its eyes, nose and mouth, and gave no clues (提示) to its surroundings. The viewers did not have to determine the cat’s exact emotions, but just decided whether it was in a positive or negative state.
The researchers found that only 13 percent, or 819 participants, were able to read the cats’ emotions accurately over 75 percent of the time. Further research showed that the so-called “cat whisperers” were mainly women and animal doctors. Younger adults also seemed to be able to read the expressions better than older individuals.
“The fact that women generally scored better than men is in line with previous research that has shown that women appear to be better at interpreting nonverbal expressions of emotion, both in humans and dogs,” said Mason. Being a cat owner did not help study participants, indicating that a strong attachment to the animal did not necessarily mean better understanding of its emotions.
Fortunately, all is not lost for cat owners who are unable to tell their pets’ emotions. The researchers believe the skills are not innate (天生的) but learned over time, which explains why animal doctors scored high in the study. “It is important to be able to do so because it could help strengthen the ties between cats and their owners,” said Niel.
8. What’s the second paragraph mainly about
A. The research tool. B. The research method.
C. The research process. D. The research subject.
9. What do “cat whisperers” probably refer to
A. Those behaving like cats.
B. Those loving cats very much.
C. Those speaking softly to cats.
D. Those good at telling cats’ emotions.
10. What can we learn from the study
A. Older people are more experienced in taking care of pets.
B. Women are better at sensing emotions than men.
C. Pet owners understand cats’ emotions more than others.
D. Young people scored lower than the old.
11. Why does Niel think it’s important to identify cats’ emotions
A. It helps cat owners train the cats.
B. It makes it easier to care for cats.
C. It is good for the cat-human relationship.
D. It contributes to developing cats’ potential.
D
To help astronauts of the future survive the mental challenges that come with living in space for extended periods of time, space travelers’ missions could soon be accompanied by AI-powered, empathetic (同理心的) robotic assistants.
Not only does space travel present astronauts with a lot of physical stresses, spending months or years in such a physically demanding place with limited space and the same people can also raise lots of mental tests as well. According to MIT Technology Review, scientists are wording to ease some of the mental challenges facing astronauts by creating “an AI assistant that’s able to feel human emotion and respond with empathy.”
While such a technology would prove itself useful by being able to predict the needs of crew members and “intervene (介入) if their mental health is in need of help, ”it has the potential to he life saving when humans choose to explore beyond the earth’s gravitational field and towards deep space.
Though astronauts currently on the International Space Station have an intelligent robot to interact with, it lacks proper emotional intelligence. As a result, a team at the organization’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory is working on a more advanced and complicated emotional support companion that can control a spacecraft’s functioning in addition to tracking crew member’s behaviors.
Right now in the lab, an AI-equipped robot called Henry the Helper can be found wandering around the grounds helping visitors who appear confused or lost based on their facial expressions. Two more emotionally intelligent robots are expected to be introduced later this year, one of which is said to be able to participate in conversations more complex than giving navigation (导航) assistance.
The team’s final goal is to make a companion named Fiona the Future a reality, an emotionally intelligent cross-platform system. Rather than being limited to a physical robotic device, it could be digitally integrated into space stations and habitats on Mars and beyond. Fiona, if all goes according to the JPL’s plans, will help keep astronauts of the future mentally fit as they start their journeys to deep space.
12. Why are the emotional support robots needed
A. To help astronauts get rid of physical stresses.
B. To protect astronauts from emotional suffering.
C. To achieve the mission of exploring deep space.
D. To test the robots’ ability to feel human emotions.
13. What is true about the current intelligent robot on the International Space Station
A. It can save astronauts’ lives. B. It can interact with astronauts.
C. It has emotional intelligence. D. It can predict astronauts’ needs.
14. What do we know about Fiona the Future
A. It is due to be introduced this year. B. It is available in the space stations.
C. It is just a physical robotic device. D. It is more of an intelligent system.
15 Where does this passage probably come from
A. A medicine magazine. B. A business magazine.
C A science magazine. D. A travel magazine.
第二节：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。(共5个小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
Some people seem to believe quitting means a lack of strength. And the willingness to suffer through anything with the aim of reaching a goal is a real symbol of honor. ___16___. Sometimes, it takes more courage to walk away from a goal than it does to power through no matter what. Here are three times when quitting is a sign of mental strength.
The reward isn’t worth the effort. You may have imagined that losing 10 pounds or getting a 10% raise would somehow make your life 100% better. However, as you work toward a goal, you might realize that success isn’t going to deliver the giant reward you’d dreamed of. ____17____.
Your goals have changed. Keeping in shape might seem like a good goal on January 1st. But, by March, you might set your sights on getting a new job. ____18____. It’s OK to change your goals. In fact, establishing new goals could be the key to helping you grow and learn.
____19____. Paying off your debt might sound like an honorable goal. But working three jobs to pay your bills might mean fewer opportunities to get things that matter to you. So you don’t need to give up your values to prove you can reach a goal. It’s OK to walk away from something that requires you to stop doing the things you believe in most.
Remember that you don’t have to prove yourself to anyone. ____20____. That’s OK. Just remind yourself that giving something up allows you to gain something else, like more time or better mental health.
A. However, it is an easy thing to quit.
B. But quitting doesn’t mean you are a loser.
C. You, therefore, needn’t devote the time and effort it’d take to get there.
D. And then your exercise program may no longer be a top choice for you.
E. It’s hard to walk away from something that you’ve worked hard on.

As the school Halloween party was just around the corner, the school hall was full of children dressed in different shapes and colours of spooks (鬼) and wonder. Some walked in as princes and princesses, some stepped in as vampires (吸血鬼) and superheroes and some made dramatic entrances as astronauts and historical figures. But one little girl walked in, hiding her face and hoping nobody would take notice of her grey pants and white T-shirt.
Ellie wanted to dress up as a princess that year. Her dad had promised her a few months earlier that her costume would turn a lot of heads. But, as you know, sometimes dads are too busy with their work and forget the small important things while dealing with the big important ones. When Ellie’s dad forgot to save up for her princess costume for the school Halloween party that year, she wasn’t mad at him. However, she couldn’t hold her tears back when the mean kids from her class started making fun of her.
“What are you supposed to be dressed as Ugly Ellie ” one of the boys laughed quietly. Ellie covered her ears and cried as she heard the kids crying out her latest nickname and laughing naughtily over and over again. Every face around her was unkind and indifferent to her sadness.
Mr. Borges was her favourite art teacher and Ellie liked his classes very much. He would listen to Ellie’s deepest fears and biggest dreams. Ellie lived with her grandmother, but it was Mr. Borges who took the place of her father as her guardian, because her father was too busy with his work.
Just as the boys were making fun of Ellie, Mr. Borges came up to her. He was trying to tell her something. The girl wiped her tears right away and managed to escape the crowd of children, closely following him.
“Wait here!” Mr. Borges said and walked into the supply closet (贮藏室). A moment later, he returned, with a few rolls of toilet paper in his hand. Ellie couldn’t help but wonder why he was holding a few rolls of toilet paper.

The night before my math test, I felt like I couldn’t do anything right. All I wanted to do was skip school (逃学). I didn’t feel prepared. I was so stressed out from balancing soccer and school. Although I studied for over 5 hours reviewing everything, I went to sleep with a feeling that I was going to fail. I hate failure. It’s the worst feeling ever. What was wrong with me I should have believed in myself and expected to get an A, but my mind was in a different direction. The next morning, I walked to school not ready to conquer this day.
I got into the exam room and forgot almost everything that I studied. It disappeared from my mind like dropping cotton candy into water. I felt dizzy (头晕的). It was like I could see myself in the future fearing the moment when I finally got my score. I decided to take a bathroom break. It might help me cool off and get everything I studied back into my mind. It didn’t work. Standing in the bathroom I felt as if I was never going to succeed. But I had to return to the room. At last, I just wrote down as much as I knew and turned in my test.
After the test I heard everyone else in the class saying how easy the test was. My eyes twitched (抽动) and I felt a tear flowing down.Why did I have anxiety Why couldn’t I be normal
I texted my parents, saying I was a failure. They replied, “I’m sorry you didn’t do well. But you can’t always be perfect. Doing your best is all that matters.” I learned a lesson from what they said, I guess. I can’t always be perfect. It’s important to study hard, but I shouldn’t stick to perfectionism. Having a positive mentality is the main way I will get a good grade. Science test tomorrow and I will think positive.

While dogs openly demonstrate joy or displeasure through wide smiles and grimaces (怪相), recognizing a cat’s emotions from its face is often hard, even for its owner. Now researchers from Canada’s University of Guelph claim that stoic (高冷的) as they may appear, cats also express emotions on their faces.
For their study, Professors Lee Niel and Georgia Mason found 6,300 people from 85 countries. The participants were asked a few questions and then watched 20 short cat videos. Each video highlighted just the cat’s face, its eyes, nose and mouth, and gave no clues (提示) to its surroundings. The viewers did not have to determine the cat’s exact emotions, but just decided whether it was in a positive or negative state.
The researchers found that only 13 percent, or 819 participants, were able to read the cats’ emotions accurately over 75 percent of the time. Further research showed that the so-called “cat whisperers” were mainly women and animal doctors. Younger adults also seemed to be able to read the expressions better than older individuals.
“The fact that women generally scored better than men is in line with previous research that has shown that women appear to be better at interpreting nonverbal expressions of emotion, both in humans and dogs,” said Mason. Being a cat owner did not help study participants, indicating that a strong attachment to the animal did not necessarily mean better understanding of its emotions.
Fortunately, all is not lost for cat owners who are unable to tell their pets’ emotions. The researchers believe the skills are not innate (天生的) but learned over time, which explains why animal doctors scored high in the study. “It is important to be able to do so because it could help strengthen the ties between cats and their owners,” said Niel.
8. What’s the second paragraph mainly about
A. The research tool. B. The research method.
C. The research process. D. The research subject.
9. What do “cat whisperers” probably refer to
A. Those behaving like cats.
B. Those loving cats very much.
C. Those speaking softly to cats.
D. Those good at telling cats’ emotions.
10. What can we learn from the study
A. Older people are more experienced in taking care of pets.
B. Women are better at sensing emotions than men.
C. Pet owners understand cats’ emotions more than others.
D. Young people scored lower than the old.
11. Why does Niel think it’s important to identify cats’ emotions
A. It helps cat owners train the cats.
B. It makes it easier to care for cats.
C. It is good for the cat-human relationship.
D. It contributes to developing cats’ potential.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. C

The viewers did not have to determine the cat’s exact emotions, but just decided whether it was in a positive or negative state.(Lee Niel和Georgia Mason教授在他们的研究中发现了来自85个国家的6300人。参与者被问了几个问题，然后观看了20个猫的短视频。每一段视频都只突出了猫的脸、眼睛、鼻子和嘴巴，没有提供任何关于周围环境的线索。观众不必确定猫的确切情绪，只需决定它是处于积极还是消极的状态)”可知，第二段主要介绍了这项研究的过程。故选C

To help astronauts of the future survive the mental challenges that come with living in space for extended periods of time, space travelers’ missions could soon be accompanied by AI-powered, empathetic (同理心的) robotic assistants.
Not only does space travel present astronauts with a lot of physical stresses, spending months or years in such a physically demanding place with limited space and the same people can also raise lots of mental tests as well. According to MIT Technology Review, scientists are wording to ease some of the mental challenges facing astronauts by creating “an AI assistant that’s able to feel human emotion and respond with empathy.”
While such a technology would prove itself useful by being able to predict the needs of crew members and “intervene (介入) if their mental health is in need of help, ”it has the potential to he life saving when humans choose to explore beyond the earth’s gravitational field and towards deep space.
Though astronauts currently on the International Space Station have an intelligent robot to interact with, it lacks proper emotional intelligence. As a result, a team at the organization’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory is working on a more advanced and complicated emotional support companion that can control a spacecraft’s functioning in addition to tracking crew member’s behaviors.
Right now in the lab, an AI-equipped robot called Henry the Helper can be found wandering around the grounds helping visitors who appear confused or lost based on their facial expressions. Two more emotionally intelligent robots are expected to be introduced later this year, one of which is said to be able to participate in conversations more complex than giving navigation (导航) assistance.
The team’s final goal is to make a companion named Fiona the Future a reality, an emotionally intelligent cross-platform system. Rather than being limited to a physical robotic device, it could be digitally integrated into space stations and habitats on Mars and beyond. Fiona, if all goes according to the JPL’s plans, will help keep astronauts of the future mentally fit as they start their journeys to deep space.
12. Why are the emotional support robots needed
A. To help astronauts get rid of physical stresses.
B. To protect astronauts from emotional suffering.
C. To achieve the mission of exploring deep space.
D. To test the robots’ ability to feel human emotions.
13 What is true about the current intelligent robot on the International Space Station
A. It can save astronauts’ lives. B. It can interact with astronauts.
C. It has emotional intelligence. D. It can predict astronauts’ needs.
14 What do we know about Fiona the Future
A. It is due to be introduced this year. B. It is available in the space stations.
C. It is just a physical robotic device. D. It is more of an intelligent system.
15. Where does this passage probably come from
A. A medicine magazine. B. A business magazine.
C. A science magazine. D. A travel magazine.
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. C

Some people seem to believe quitting means a lack of strength. And the willingness to suffer through anything with the aim of reaching a goal is a real symbol of honor. ___16___. Sometimes, it takes more courage to walk away from a goal than it does to power through no matter what. Here are three times when quitting is a sign of mental strength.
The reward isn’t worth the effort. You may have imagined that losing 10 pounds or getting a 10% raise would somehow make your life 100% better. However, as you work toward a goal, you might realize that success isn’t going to deliver the giant reward you’d dreamed of. ____17____.
Your goals have changed. Keeping in shape might seem like a good goal on January 1st. But, by March, you might set your sights on getting a new job. ____18____. It’s OK to change your goals. In fact, establishing new goals could be the key to helping you grow and learn.
____19____. Paying off your debt might sound like an honorable goal. But working three jobs to pay your bills might mean fewer opportunities to get things that matter to you. So you don’t need to give up your values to prove you can reach a goal. It’s OK to walk away from something that requires you to stop doing the things you believe in most.
Remember that you don’t have to prove yourself to anyone. ____20____. That’s OK. Just remind yourself that giving something up allows you to gain something else, like more time or better mental health.
A. However, it is an easy thing to quit.
B. But quitting doesn’t mean you are a loser.
C. You, therefore, needn’t devote the time and effort it’d take to get there.
D. And then your exercise program may no longer be a top choice for you.
E. It’s hard to walk away from something that you’ve worked hard on.
F. People may question your decision to quit.

But, by March, you might set your sights on getting a new job.(在1月1日保持身材似乎是一个不错的目标。但是，到了三月，你可能会把目光投向找一份新工作。)”可知，新的目标是找一份新工作，保持身材，进行锻炼不再是首选了。D项：And then your exercise program may no longer be a top choice for you. (然后你的锻炼计划可能不再是你的首选。)承接上句，合乎题意。故选D。
【19题详解】
本段句首缺少概括句，根据后文“So you don’t need to give up your values to prove you can reach a goal(所以你不需要放弃你的价值观来证明你可以达到一个目标)”可知，目标和价值观不符时，应该放弃自己的目标。G项：The process doesn’t agree with your values (这个过程与你的价值观不一致)概括本段内容。故选G。
【20题详解】
根据上句“Remember that you don’t have to prove yourself to anyone.( 记住，你不需要向任何人证明你自己。)”可知，设空处应为面对别人的质疑，不需要向任何人证明你自己。F项：People may question your decision to quit. (人们可能会质疑你放弃的决定。)合乎题意。故选F。

【39题详解】
考查语态。句意：一些人还想知道他们喝了拿铁后是否被允许开车。从句主语they 承受allow的动作，因此从句的谓语动词allow使用被动语态，即“would+be done”的形式，故填be allowed。

考查定语从句。句意：作为回应，瑞幸咖啡表示，建议未成年人、孕妇、司机和那些对酒精过敏的人不要点这种饮料。分析句子结构可知，空格处引导定语从句，those 是先行词，指人，从句中缺主语，一般使用关系代词who引导定语从句，故填who。

考查形容词性物主代词。句意：通过与瑞幸咖啡的合作，它超越了星巴克，成为中国最大的咖啡馆运营商，茅台使其品牌更加年轻，并为未来的年轻消费者创造了更多的机会，发展其扩展的产品范围。修饰brand作定语应该使用形容词性物主代词，it的形容词性物主代词是its，故填its。
【44题详解】
考查现在完成时。句意：近年来，茅台一直在开展时尚营销活动，以满足年轻客户的需求，例如推出茅台冰淇淋、小塑像、香囊、帆布袋等文化创意产品。根据句中的“in recent years”可知，谓语动词使用现在完成时，主语Moutai为单数意义，故填has run。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
As the school Halloween party was just around the corner, the school hall was full of children dressed in different shapes and colours of spooks (鬼) and wonder. Some walked in as princes and princesses, some stepped in as vampires (吸血鬼) and superheroes and some made dramatic entrances as astronauts and historical figures. But one little girl walked in, hiding her face and hoping nobody would take notice of her grey pants and white T-shirt.
Ellie wanted to dress up as a princess that year. Her dad had promised her a few months earlier that her costume would turn a lot of heads. But, as you know, sometimes dads are too busy with their work and forget the small important things while dealing with the big important ones. When Ellie’s dad forgot to save up for her princess costume for the school Halloween party that year, she wasn’t mad at him. However, she couldn’t hold her tears back when the mean kids from her class started making fun of her.
“What are you supposed to be dressed as Ugly Ellie ” one of the boys laughed quietly. Ellie covered her ears and cried as she heard the kids crying out her latest nickname and laughing naughtily over and over again. Every face around her was unkind and indifferent to her sadness.
Mr. Borges was her favourite art teacher and Ellie liked his classes very much. He would listen to Ellie’s deepest fears and biggest dreams. Ellie lived with her grandmother, but it was Mr. Borges who took the place of her father as her guardian, because her father was too busy with his work.
Just as the boys were making fun of Ellie, Mr. Borges came up to her. He was trying to tell her something. The girl wiped her tears right away and managed to escape the crowd of children, closely following him.
“Wait here!” Mr. Borges said and walked into the supply closet (贮藏室). A moment later, he returned, with a few rolls of toilet paper in his hand. Ellie couldn’t help but wonder why he was holding a few rolls of toilet paper.

【答案】“What’s that for ” Ellie asked. “It’s your Halloween costume. It’s going to be the best costume ever!” beamed Mr. Borges with thrill. Surprised and expectant, Ellie stood frozen on the spot with her eyes wide open. “Come over here,” Mr. Borges gestured to the costume and started to wrap toilet paper around her all over. Seeing herself in the mirror, Ellie jumped up and down, clapping her hands joyfully. “I love it! I love it! Mr. Broges. Thank you!” She hugged Mr. Borges and placed a tiny kiss on his cheek.
What Mr. Borges did meant everything to Ellie, especially in the field of art. “Thank you for your kindness,” thanked Ellie, with tears brimming in her eyes. Mr. Borges replied with a big toothy smile and encouraged, “I can see your artistic talent. Why not give it a shot ” Under Mr. Borges’ encouragement, El
