We lived on a farm and in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that city life has its problems, too.One big disadvantage is money it costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma (哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment (娱乐活动). Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens (十几岁) or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.语篇解读：城市生活与乡下生活各有利弊。作者在体验了城市生活的金钱问题、污染问题及交通问题之后，反而想重返乡下的宁静祥和；但是城市生活的诸多便利之处，也是乡下不可比拟的。4What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?AStaying on the farm.BMoving to the countryside. CLeaving home for the city.DRunning away from the school.解析：选C细节理解题。从文章的第一段第一句话“When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city.” 可知作者还是孩子的时候就梦想着去城里。 5What are the disadvantages of living in the city the writer listed in the passage?AMoney; house; pollution.BPollution; house; traveling.CTraveling; house; money.DMoney; pollution; traveling.解析：选D细节理解题。作者在文章的第二段集中说明了住在城市里的三大问题：金钱(money)，污染(pollution)和出行(traveling)。6In the passage, the advantages of living in the city the writer told us are_.Amore activities; more jobs; much goods; more shopsBmore activities; more shops; more jobs; more peopleCmore people; more cars; more activities; more shopsDmore shops; more jobs; more parks; more tall buildings解析：选A细节理解题。作者在文章的第三段集中说明了住在城市里的四大优势：娱乐活动多、工作多、货物多和商店多。7Where is the writer living now?AIn the countryside.BIn the city.CIn the school.DNot mentioned in the passage.解析：选B推理判断题。根据文章最后一段最后两句“as you get older .the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.” 可知年龄变大且有了孩子的时候，乡下的宁静更好，“我”的确希望能很快搬回去住。由此可以推断，现在作者住在城里。CAt the 2015 Reshape Wearable Technology Competition, the Sponge (海绵) Suit bikini won first prize. This twopiece bathing suit is similar to other swimsuits in appearance, but it has an unusual function. Thanks to it, making the worlds oceans free from dirt might actually become the common thing done by swimmers during hot summer months.The filler (填充物) was invented by a group of engineers led by electrical engineering professor Mihri Ozkan. With the help of design firm Eray Carbajo, they changed the material into a wearable swimsuit.The 3Dprinted Sponge Suit bikini is made of flexible, carbonbased filler materials that act like a sponge, absorbing all sorts of pollutants from water. So you put it on, walk in the water, and end up cleaning the sea. Most importantly, it has turned out to be absolutely safe for the wearer.The sponge filler can absorb pollutants up to 25 times its own weight, which will not be released until it is heated to over 1,000 . At such temperature, the material will return to its original liquid form and once melted down, the pollutants will be separated. The sponge material can be recycled to make another swimsuit. It is a super material that is not harmful to the environment and very costeffective to produce.Having to recycle your bathing suit after a few swims doesnt sound very practical, but you have to admit that this idea is really the start of something groundbreaking. The wearable technology can be the next big innovation (革新) of mankind.The makers are ready for the mass production of the Sponge Suit bikini and it should hit the market in the near future. They are also planning to apply the same technology to different types of swimsuits and swimming caps.语篇解读：本文为说明文，题材为科普环保类。在2015年重塑可穿戴技术比赛中，创新的海绵比基尼套装获得了一等奖。这是一种由特殊材料制成的环保泳衣，穿上它涉水、游泳的同时还能清洁污水。8What can we learn about the Sponge Suit bikini?AIt might damage peoples health.BIt can help clean the polluted water.CIt looks nothing like a bathing suit.DIt is made to encourage people to swim.解析：选B细节理解题。由第一、三段可知，海绵比基尼套装跟普通泳装看起来没什么两样，能够清洁海水，对穿戴者也是绝对安全的。9Which of the following is TRUE about the filler?AIt can take away few pollutants.BIt can be recycled.CIt is liquid at the normal temperature.DThe pollutants get out of it quite easily.解析：选B推理判断题。由第四段可知，在1 000度以上，填料会恢复原始液体形式，一旦熔化，污染物将会分离出来，海绵原料可以被回收，并且制成新的泳衣。10What does the underlined word “groundbreaking” in Paragraph 5 mean?AOld.BCreative.CUnreal. DTraditional.解析：选B词义猜测题。由第五段可知，也许在游几次泳之后就回收泳衣的做法不那么实际，但必须承认这确实是一个开创性的好点子。可穿戴技术将成为人类的下一项重大革新。groundbreaking意为“创新性的、突破性的”。11What can we infer about the Sponge Suit bikini from the last paragraph?AIt is too expensive for people to afford.BIt is being sold in large quantities now.CThe technology of it may be widely used.DIt will cause other swimsuits to disappear.解析：选C推理判断题。由最后一段可知，生产商准备好了大量生产海绵比基尼，在不久的将来就能进入市场。他们还计划将此技术应用到各种类型的泳衣和泳帽上。DTo us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains, but actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. Its first use was as a shade against the sun!Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese in the 11th century BC.We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was commonly used in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.During the Middle Ages, the use of umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late 16th century. And again it was considered as a symbol of power. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France and later in England.By the 18th century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe.Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasnt until the twentieth century that womens umbrellas began to be made, in a whole variety of colors.语篇解读：这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了伞最初产生时的用途以及后来的演变。12According to this passage, the umbrella was probably first invented in ancient_.AChinaBEgyptCGreece DRome解析：选A细节理解题。根据文章第二段第二句“Probably the first to use it were the Chinese in the 11th century BC.”可判断最初是在中国产生的。 13Which of the following statements is NOT true about the umbrella?ANo one exactly knows who the inventor of the umbrella was.BThe umbrella was first invented to be used as protection against the sun.CThe umbrella changed much in style in the 18th century.DIn Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade.解析：选C细节理解题。根据文章倒数第一段中“Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time”可知伞在风格上没有什么变化。14A strange feature of the umbrellas use is that it was used as_.Aprotection against rainBa shade against the sunCa symbol of honor and powerDwomens decoration (装饰)解析：选C细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二句“And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor.” 和最后一句“. only by those in high office.”可判断。15In Europe, the umbrella was first used against the rain_.Aduring the Middle AgesBby the 18th centuryCin ancient RomeDin Greece解析：选C细节理解题。根据文章第四段最后一句“But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.”可判断在欧洲伞用来防雨最早出现在古罗马。.阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分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佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Each New Year, we wish others happiness and success. _16_ There are several a smile, freedom, the willingness to share and the confidence that you will get what you need in life._17_ As you turn over the calendar, keep turning over your mind as well.
