In the far corner of the front yard of a large house in Florida rests an RV—Recreational Vehicle( 活动房屋式旅游车), shaded by trees as clothing on a nearby line sways(摇动) in the breeze. In this RV, National Geographic explorer Thomas Culhane lives with his wife, Enas, almost entirely off the grid—a lifestyle without depending on electricity supply.
Culhane began living off the grid in the late 1990s, when he went into the basement of his apartment building in Los Angeles and pulled the plug that delivered electricity. Even earlier though, he was first inspired by sustainable(不破坏生态平衡的) living during a trip in 1970 to visit his relatives. He was eight years old and worried that his stay in their small village was going to be miserable because his relatives told him they had no air conditioning or electricity— but they had plenty of fresh fruits from orchards (果园) and lots of cold drinks chilled by the icy stream from the ice caps of the nearby mountain. “This is amazing,”says Culhane.
He met Enas when she was living in an ecovillage in Portugal. Enas said she liked the feeling of being low impact, of being harmless to the earth. Culhane was attracted and fell in love with her. The couple got married, living on the same property(财产) that they currently have. They moved into their first home together—an RV which they immediately took completely off-grid.
Inside their RV, Culhane and Enas have hot showers, a working gas stove, a refrigerator, a washing machine and a big screen TV. They use gas created by their on-site biodigesters (生物煮解器) to cook on a gas-powered stove. They also use energy created by the biodigesters to heat their bath water. They feed the biodigesters using their own food waste— at no additional cost to the earth.
Sometimes on weekends, the RV is turned into a classroom. The couple host workshops to let the community members and students know living an off-grid life is getting easier and teach them how to respect and coexist peacefully with the environment.
4. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2
A. Add some background information.
B. Summarize the previous paragraph.
C. Provide some advice for the readers.
D. Introduce a new topic for discussion.
5. What attracted Culhane most when he first met Enas
A. Her marriage property. B. Their common life belief.
C. The beauty of her ecovillage. D. Her experience of exploration.
6. What do the biodigesters produce
A. Food waste. B. Additional costs.
C. Greenhouse gases. D. Alternative(可供选择的) energy
7. What can be a suitable title for the text
A An RV Classroom
B. Living off the Grid
C. Getting Close to Nature
D. Protecting the Environment
C
America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while—then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily, but truly can’t manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes,
For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for pure business matters. So accept their hospitality at home !
8. Where are we expected to call our American friends if we go there by plane
A. On the bus. B. At the airport.
C. Near their home. D. At our own hotel.
9. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage
A. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.
B. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.
C. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
D. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.
10. Which is the typical way of American hospitality
A. Treating friends at home. B. Sharing everything they have.
C. Taking days off to be with friends. D. Meeting friends at the airport at midnight.
11. In which part of a newspaper can this article be found
A. Culture. B. News.
C. Story. D. Travel.
D
Did you know that the color of uniforms can influence the performance of an athlete It may sound strange, but a study suggests this might be true.
Two British scientists studied the results of four sports in the 2004 Athens Olympic Games where the athletes had been given either a red or a blue uniform. They discovered that when there was a big difference in the score, color had no influence on the result. But if it was a close match, the athlete in a red uniform was more likely to win. Then they looked at the uniforms of the soccer teams at the Euro 2004 tournament. Again, teams wearing red won more games.
The two scientists got their idea from earlier studies of wild animals. It had been discovered that when a male show red on its body, it sends a signal of its power and strength. For example, in many kinds of monkey, the more the male shows off its red scare, the more females it can attract.
Based on this fact, the British scientists thought that the idea might work for humans, too. According to them, when an athlete sees a competitor in a red uniform, he gets a feeling that his competitor could be stronger than him. And that kind of feeling may have a bad influence on the player’s performance in the actual game.
Although the idea is Interesting, most people don’t accept that color signals in the animals world can really be useful to humans in sports. They think that it is unreasonable to develop an idea based on such a small number of examples. Much more research has to be done to prove the influence of uniform colors on the performance of athletes.
12. What did the scientists find out about the 2004 Athens Olympic Games
A. Athletes played equally well in four sports.
B. Game results had a big influence on the athletes.
C. Athletes dressed in red scored more in a close match.
D. There was a big difference in red and blue team’s scores.
13. What may the red scars of a male animal suggest
A. It is quite strong. B. It is a failure.
C. It has power over other males. D. It has attracted a lot of females.
14. The underlined part “that kind of feeling” in the text refers to a feeling of ________.
A. weakness B. pride C. danger D. shame
15. What is most people’s opinion to the scientists’ idea
A. Interested. B. Satisfied. C. Doubtful. D. Thankful.

In the far corner of the front yard of a large house in Florida rests an RV—Recreational Vehicle( 活动房屋式旅游车), shaded by trees as clothing on a nearby line sways(摇动) in the breeze. In this RV, National Geographic explorer Thomas Culhane lives with his wife, Enas, almost entirely off the grid—a lifestyle without depending on electricity supply.
Culhane began living off the grid in the late 1990s, when he went into the basement of his apartment building in Los Angeles and pulled the plug that delivered electricity. Even earlier though, he was first inspired by sustainable(不破坏生态平衡的) living during a trip in 1970 to visit his relatives. He was eight years old and worried that his stay in their small village was going to be miserable because his relatives told him they had no air conditioning or electricity— but they had plenty of fresh fruits from orchards (果园) and lots of cold drinks chilled by the icy stream from the ice caps of the nearby mountain. “This is amazing,”says Culhane.
He met Enas when she was living in an ecovillage in Portugal. Enas said she liked the feeling of being low impact, of being harmless to the earth. Culhane was attracted and fell in love with her. The couple got married, living on the same property(财产) that they currently have. They moved into their first home together—an RV which they immediately took completely off-grid.
Inside their RV, Culhane and Enas have hot showers, a working gas stove, a refrigerator, a washing machine and a big screen TV. They use gas created by their on-site biodigesters (生物煮解器) to cook on a gas-powered stove. They also use energy created by the biodigesters to heat their bath water. They feed the biodigesters using their own food waste— at no additional cost to the earth.
Sometimes on weekends, the RV is turned into a classroom. The couple host workshops to let the community members and students know living an off-grid life is getting easier and teach them how to respect and coexist peacefully with the environment.

A. Add some background information.
B. Summarize the previous paragraph.
C. Provide some advice for the readers.
D. Introduce a new topic for discussion.
5. What attracted Culhane most when he first met Enas

6. What do the biodigesters produce
A. Food waste. B. Additional costs.
C. Greenhouse gases. D. Alternative(可供选择的) energy
7. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. An RV Classroom
B. Living off the Grid
C. Getting Close to Nature
D. Protecting the Environment
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. B
【解析】
【分析】本文为记叙文。本文主要叙述了Culhane和Enas这对夫妇为了给地球减负,不危害地球,在活动房屋式旅游车中过着一种完全不用电的自给自足的生活。他们还举办了研讨会,让社区成员和学生知道,远离电的生活其实并不难,并教他们如何尊重环境,与环境和平共处。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。第二段第一句“Culhane began living off the grid in the late 1990s, when he went into the basement of his apartment building in Los Angeles and pulled the plug that delivered electricity”是本段的主旨句,可知,Culhane在上世纪90年代末开始过着不用电的生活,当时他住在洛杉矶公寓楼的地下室,拔掉了供电插头。”再结合本段的内容可知,本段主要介绍了Culhane一次探亲之行启发了他过不用电的生活方式 ,即他的环保生活的一些背景知识。故选A。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Enas said she liked the feeling of being low impact, of being harmless to the earth. Culhane was attracted and fell in love with her.”可知,埃纳斯说她喜欢那种对地球影响小、无害的感觉。卡尔汉被她吸引并爱上了她。再根据文章的内容可知,他们俩都喜欢这种不用电网的生活。由此可推断出,当Culhane第一次见到Enas的时候,吸引他的是他们共同的生活方式。分析选项可知B项符合题意,故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“They use gas created by their on-site biodigesters to cook on a gas-powered stove. They also use energy created by the biodigesters to heat their bath water. They feed the biodigesters using their own food waste— at no additional cost to the earth.”可知,他们使用现场生物消化器产生的气体在燃气炉上做饭。他们还利用生物消化器产生的能源来加热洗澡水。他们用生物消化器分解自己的食物垃圾产生能源,而不增加对地球的负担。由此可推断出生物消化器可产生替代能源。故选D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段最后一句“National Geographic explorer Thomas Culhane lives with his wife, Enas, almost entirely off the grid—a lifestyle without depending on electricity supply.”即“卡尔汉和他的妻子伊纳斯几乎完全不使用电网——一种不依赖电力供应的生活方式”;和第二段第一句中的“Culhane began living off the grid in the late 1990s” 即“卡尔汉从20世纪90年代末开始过着无电生活”;和最后一段中的“The couple host workshops to let the community members and students know living an off-grid life is getting easier”等可知,本文主要叙述了Culhane和Enas这对夫妇喜欢完全不用电网,住在活动房屋式旅游车中的自给自足的生活。综合全文可知,“living off the grid”贯穿全文,而B项(Living off the Grid)即为远离电网,符合题意,是最佳题目,故选B。
【点睛】选择标题在英语阅读理解中属于主旨大意题,是一种深层理解题。要求考生在通读全文的基础上,认真分析文章大意及作者的写作意图。在阅读文章时,要注意文章中反复出现的或强调的信息,寻找与文章大多数内容相关的信息。找出覆盖全文的核心词汇,看选项内容是否切中文章的中心论题。也就是要看选项内容与作者的写作目的是否一致。如第4小题,文章反复出现的living off the grid这与选项A中的living off the grid相照应。
寻找文章的主题句。文章主要论题的关键是找到文章的主题句。主题句通常在文章的首段,也可能在文章的末段,在文章的某一段落,或分散在文章的各个段落中。如果每个段落都有主题句,那么把各段落的主题句的中心集中起来,即为全文的主题句。通读全文,尤其是第一段最后一句“National Geographic explorer Thomas Culhane lives with his wife, Enas, almost entirely off the grid—a lifestyle without depending on electricity supply.”即“卡尔汉和他的妻子伊纳斯几乎完全不使用电网——一种不依赖电力供应的生活方式”;和第二段第一句中的“Culhane began living off the grid in the late 1990s” 即“卡尔汉从20世纪90年代末开始过着无电生活”;和最后一段中的“The couple host workshops to let the community members and students know living an off-grid life is getting easier”可知,本文主要叙述了Culhane和Enas这对夫妇喜欢完全脱离电力供应,住在活动房屋式旅游车中的自给自足的生活。综合全文可知,“living off the grid”贯穿全文,而B项(Living off the Grid)即为远离电网,符合题意,是最佳题目,故选B。

America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while—then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily, but truly can’t manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes,
For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for pure business matters. So accept their hospitality at home !
8. Where are we expected to call our American friends if we go there by plane
A. On the bus. B. At the airport.
C. Near their home. D. At our own hotel.
9. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage
A. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.
B. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.
C. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
D. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.
10. Which is the typical way of American hospitality
A Treating friends at home. B. Sharing everything they have.
C. Taking days off to be with friends. D. Meeting friends at the airport at midnight.
11. In which part of a newspaper can this article be found
A. Culture. B. News.
C. Story. D. Travel.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. A

Did you know that the color of uniforms can influence the performance of an athlete It may sound strange, but a study suggests this might be true.
Two British scientists studied the results of four sports in the 2004 Athens Olympic Games where the athletes had been given either a red or a blue uniform. They discovered that when there was a big difference in the score, color had no influence on the result. But if it was a close match, the athlete in a red uniform was more likely to win. Then they looked at the uniforms of the soccer teams at the Euro 2004 tournament. Again, teams wearing red won more games.
The two scientists got their idea from earlier studies of wild animals. It had been discovered that when a male show red on its body, it sends a signal of its power and strength. For example, in many kinds of monkey, the more the male shows off its red scare, the more females it can attract.
Based on this fact, the British scientists thought that the idea might work for humans, too. According to them, when an athlete sees a competitor in a red uniform, he gets a feeling that his competitor could be stronger than him. And that kind of feeling may have a bad influence on the player’s performance in the actual game.
Although the idea is Interesting, most people don’t accept that color signals in the animals world can really be useful to humans in sports. They think that it is unreasonable to develop an idea based on such a small number of examples. Much more research has to be done to prove the influence of uniform colors on the performance of athletes.
12. What did the scientists find out about the 2004 Athens Olympic Games
A. Athletes played equally well in four sports.
B. Game results had a big influence on the athletes.
C Athletes dressed in red scored more in a close match.
D. There was a big difference in red and blue team’s scores.
13. What may the red scars of a male animal suggest
A. It is quite strong. B. It is a failure.
C. It has power over other males. D. It has attracted a lot of females.
14. The underlined part “that kind of feeling” in the text refers to a feeling of ________.
A. weakness B. pride C. danger D. shame
15. What is most people’s opinion to the scientists’ idea
A. Interested. B. Satisfied. C. Doubtful. D. Thankful.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. A 15. C
【解析】

Did you take part in a camp this summer ___16___ To choose which camp is best for you, first you must do a bit of research.
Maybe you've never thought about it before, but every great summer camp has the same main goals — opportunity, challenge and growth.

This also leads to the third and most important goal of every great summer camp personal growth. It doesn’t mean growing taller and stronger or more beautiful. It means seeing yourself improve, learning something new and doing something you didn’t know you could do before. ___19___.
So in the future, when choosing your next summer camp, remember to ask yourself: Is it a special opportunity Is it a challenge Will I grow
___20___ These will all happen naturally when you have the right goals at summer camp
A. Challenge means you are given a task.
B. It also means becoming more confident in yourself.
C. Some camps focus on developing a certain skill or ability.

G. It also makes you special because other kids don't have the same opportunity.
【答案】16. E 17. G 18. A 19. B 20. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章要求你选择最适合你的夏令营。也许你以前从未想过,但每一个伟大的夏令营都有同样的主要目标——机遇、挑战和成长。
【16题详解】
下文提示“要选择哪个阵营对你来说是最好的,首先你必须做一些研究。”承接下文,E项There are so many summer camps and not all of them are the same.“有这么多夏令营,但并不是所有的夏令营都是一样的。”切题。该项中的not all of them are the same.与To choose which camp is best for you,相吻合。故选E。
【17题详解】
上文提示“机会意味着你有机会做一些特别的事情。”承接上文,G项It also makes you special because other kids don't have the same opportunity.“这也让你与众不同,因为其他孩子没有同样的机会。”切题。关键词opportunity。故选G。
【18题详解】
下文提示“你必须完成这项任务,并成功地克服挑战。”承接下文,A项Challenge means you are given a task.“挑战意味着你被赋予了一项任务。”切题。关键词Challenge和task。故选A。
【19题详解】
上文提示“这意味着看到你自己进步,学习新的东西,做一些你以前不知道你可以做的事情。”承接上文,B项It also means becoming more confident in yourself.“这也意味着你对自己更有信心。”切题。关键词also将上下句连在一起。故选B。
【20题详解】
上文提示“这是一个特殊的机会吗?这是一个挑战吗 我能长大吗 ”下文提示“当你在夏令营中有正确的目标时,这些都会自然而然地发生。”承接上下文,D项But what about friendship, fun and joy “但是友谊、乐趣和快乐呢?”切题。该项中的But用转折关系和上文连在一起;下文中的These指的就是该项内容what about friendship, fun and joy 故选D。
【点睛】做七选五时“当心文中小also”,also是“也”的意思,这就说明前文一定存在它的一个分支了,本题第4小题,前文交代“It means seeing yourself improve, learning something new and doing something you didn’t know you could do before.”虽然看上去很长的一句话,但是重点就三个单词“seeing yourself improve”,此时在空中填上“It also means becoming more confident in yourself.”,(关键词It also means becoming more confident)这样一对应就很工整了。当然“also”只是一个代表罢了,可以表示递进的词还有很多:what’ more, besides, in addition等等。

39. be controlled
40. faced 41. as
42. determined
43. saving 44. constantly
45. shook
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文,文章通过《农夫和骡子》这则寓言讲述了在面对逆境时要永不放弃。
【36题详解】
考查副词。句意:然而,它里面确实有智慧。前文“The story of The Farmer and The Mule(骡子) makes us smile.(《农夫和骡子》的故事让我们会心一笑。)”讲述了《农夫和骡子》的故事很有趣,后面“it does have wisdom in it”讲述了这个故事告诉了我们大智慧,前后表示转折,应用however“然而”,为副词。故填However。
【37题详解】
考查主语从句。句意:我们如何应对逆境决定了我们人生的成功。分析句子结构,_____ we handle adversity在句中作主语,应是主语从句,且从句中主谓宾结构完整,缺少方式状语,所以应用how引导,表示“如何”。故填How。
【38题详解】
考查名词的数。句意:我对逆境的一个看法是,“逆境是生活中的一个事实。它是无法控制的。我们能控制的是我们对它的反应。”thought意为“想法,看法”,为可数名词,其前有One of修饰,所以这里应用名词复数。故填thoughts。
【39题详解】
考查语态。句意参考上题。It和control之间是动宾关系,应用被动语态,且空前有can’t,这里应用动词原形。故填be controlled。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:当面对逆境时,我们可以放弃消极的态度。分析句子结构,When引导的时间状语从句使用了省略,从句的主语和主句的主语一致。逻辑主语we和face之间是动宾关系,所以这里应用过去分词。be faced with意为“面对”。故填faced。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意:或者,我们可以把逆境看作是一个寻找其他方式做事的机会。look on...as...意为“把……看作……”,为固定搭配。故填as。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意:我们应该有决心和毅力。根据空后的“and persistent”可知,空处应用形容词,和空后的内容一起并列作be的表语。determined意为“有决心的”。故填determined。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:你看,当骡子不小心掉进井里时,农民认为不值得救,他只是埋它来使它摆脱痛苦。sth. be worth doing为固定结构,意为“某事值得做”,动名词用其主动形式表示被动含义。故填saving。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意:尽管骡子一直在深井里,但它不会放弃。分析句子结构,空处应用副词,修饰空后的介词短语in a deep well。constantly意为“始终,一直”。故填constantly。
【45题详解】
考查时态。句意:骡子只是一点一点地把泥土抖掉,从不放弃爬出井来生活的意愿。根据第三段中描述故事所用的时态可知,这里应和上文时态一致,用一般过去时。shake的过去式是shook。故填shook。
