What really shines through is the strange storytelling and the laughs. Buy it on Amazon. Price: $26.60ENGLAND: Wolf Hall by Hilary MantelYou cant travel to Thomas Cromwells England without a time machine, but reading Mantels prizewinning novel is the next best thing.

A【解析】【分析】本篇是应用文。文章主要向我们介绍了四本书，书籍由亚马逊网的高级编辑推荐，可以更好地让我们了解世界，开阔眼界。【1题详解】推理判断题。根据ITALY: Beautiful Ruins by Jess Walter中This book by the popular author Jess Walter is a love story that begins on the Italian Coast in the early 60s and eventually concludes in contemporary Hollywoods screen.“这本书由畅销书作家杰西沃尔特(Jess Walter)所著，讲述的是一个爱情故事，开始于60年代初的意大利海岸，最终在当代好莱坞的银幕上画上句号。”由此可知，根据课文，Beautiful Ruins被拍成了电影。故选C。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据SEATTLE: Whered You Go, Bernadette by Maria Semple中What really shines through is the strange storytelling and the laughs.“真正引人注目的是奇怪的故事和笑声。”可知，the Whered You Go, Bernadette真正引人注目的是奇怪的故事和笑声。故选D。【3题详解】推理判断题。根据NANTUCKET: Heres to Us by Elin Hilderbrand中Elin Hilderbrand has built a writing career out of writing about her hometown island of Nantucket. Her latest book is Heres to Us, which, perhaps not surprisingly, is a great beach book.“艾琳希尔德布兰德(Elin Hilderbrand)的写作生涯始于对家乡南塔开特岛(Nantucket)的描写。她的新书是Heres to Us，这也许并不奇怪，是一本很棒的沙滩书。”可知，Heres to Us适合在沙滩上读书是因为这是关于作者家乡的岛屿。故选A。【点睛】在细节考查题中有一类事实细节题 。该题属于细节类型的阅读理解题，一般只针对某个特定的细节，题型可以多种多样。此类题型一般分两种。第一种是直接理解题，在原文中可以直接找到答案。第二种是词义转换题，正确选项是原文有关词语和句子的转换。做此类试题一定要抓住事件发生的时间、地点、人物、发展过程和结局等环节，所选答案一定要符合原文，切不可望文生义。本题第2小题，根据SEATTLE: Whered You Go, Bernadette by Maria Semple中What really shines through is the strange storytelling and the laughs.“真正引人注目的是奇怪的故事和笑声。”可知，the Whered You Go, Bernadette真正引人注目的是奇怪的故事和笑声。故选D。BDThere are an extremely large number of ants worldwide. Each individual (个体的) ant hardly weigh anything, but put together they weigh roughly the same as all of mankind. They also live nearly everywhere, except on frozen mountain tops and around the poles.For animals their size, ants have been astonishingly successful, largely due to their wonderful social behavior.In colonies (群体) that range in size from a few hundred to tens of millions, they organize their lives with a clear division of labor. Even more amazing is how they achieve this level of organization. Where we use sound and sight to communicate, ants depend primarily on pheromone (外激素), chemicals sent out by individuals and smelled or tasted by fellow members of their colony. When an ant finds food, it produces a pheromone that will lead others straight to where the food is. When an individual ant comes under attack or is dying, it sends out an alarm pheromone to warn the colony to prepare for a conflict as a defense unit.In fact, when it comes to the art of war, ants have no equal. They are completely fearless and will readily take on a creature much larger than themselves, attacking in large groups and overcoming their target. Such is their devotion to the common good of the colony that not only soldier ants but also worker ants will sacrifice their lives to help defeat an enemy.Behaving in this selfless and devoted manner, these little creatures have survived on Earth, for more than 140 million years, far longer than dinosaurs. Because they think as one, they have a collective (集体的) intelligence greater than you would expect from its individual parts.4. We can learn from the passage that ants are _.A. not willing to share foodB. not found around the polesC. more successful than all other animalsD. too many to achieve any level of organization5. Ants can use pheromones for_.A. escapeB. communicationC. warning enemiesD. arranging labor6. What does the underlined expression take on in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Accept.B. Employ.C. Play with.D. Fight against.7. Which of the following contributes most to the survival of ants?A. Their behavior.B. Their size.C. Their number.D. Their weight【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 7. A【解析】试题分析：文章主要讲的是蚂蚁。单个的蚂蚁显得微不足道，但成群结队的蚂蚁却蕴含着巨大的力量。蚂蚁的数量之众，加起来可以与人类的重量相媲美。蚂蚁分布极为广泛，除了寒冷的山顶和两极地区，几乎到处都有它们的踪影。【此处有视频，请去附件查看】【4题详解】B 细节理解题。根据第一段“They also live nearly everywhere, except on frozen mountain tops and around the poles.”可知答案，结冰的山顶和两极没有蚂蚁。故选B。【5题详解】B 细节理解题。根据第二段“Where we use sound and sight to communicate, ants dependprimarily on pheromone (外激素)”可知，我们使用声音和视觉来交流，而蚂蚁却使用外激素。故选B。【6题详解】D 猜测词义题。根据“attacking in large groups and overcoming their target”成群结队地攻击并战胜它们的目标可知，这里指与比自己大的敌人战斗。故选D。【7题详解】A 推理判断题。根据第一段“ ants have been astonishingly successful, largely due to their wonderfulsocial behavior”蚂蚁的成功令人吃惊，这主要归功于它们出色的社交行为,和最后一段“Behaving in this selfless and devoted manner,.they think as one, they have a collective (集体的) intelligence greater”可知，蚂蚁之所以能够存活下来，是因为它们的社会行为。故选A。【考点定位】自然类短文阅读CSkateboarding has become one of several non - traditional activities that PE teachers around America are introducing to inspire kids to exercise regularly. Some PE classes feature in-line (滚轮) skating, yoga, and even rock climbing. Experts have called those types of activities “the new PE”. Such activities are part of a larger effort to help kids develop lifelong fitness habits and to keep them from becoming overweight. Now, 9 million U.S. children and teens are overweight. Obesity (肥胖) can lead to health problems such as diabetes and heart disease later in life. “Our children and youth are becoming unhealthy and obese,” says Lindsey Johnson. “Skateboarding is a great activity that keeps kids doing physical movement and gives them new skills and interest.”Some schools dont allow skateboarding because they say it is dangerous. Cendali, however, argues that regular practiceeliminatesa great deal of the danger. “We teach students how to do it and how to do it safely,” he says. Some people say skateboarding teaches life lessons. “Skateboarding teaches kids to believe that if they stick with something they will finally succeed,” says education expert Richard Sagor of Lewis & Clark College in Portland, Oregon. Skateboarding inspires kids not to give up in learning difficult skills. “Its natural for kids to want to learn and get better at things,” adds Sagor. “When it comes to skateboarding, theyll try a trick hundreds of times before they succeed.” That same effort could be made in schoolwork. Eric Klassen agrees that skateboarding requires kids to stop saying a task is too hard for them. “A baby will attempt to walk 600 to 900 times before he or she is successful,” says Klassen. “We tell students that they shouldnt say I cant do it unless theyve tried 600 to 900 times.”8. Skateboarding is introduced into American schools to _.A. encourage students to compete bravely in competitionB. teach students how to deal with risksC. prevent students suffering from heart disease later in lifeD. help students form the habit of doing sports9. The underlined word “eliminates” in Paragraph 4 probably means “_”.A. reducesB. increasesC. addsD. brings10. What life lesson do kids learn from skateboarding?A. To succeed in life you have to learn skateboarding.B. You will succeed in life if you dont give up.C. Only after failing 600 to 900 times can you succeed.D. There is no hard work after learning skate-boarding well.11. What would be the best title for the passage?A. The dangerous PEB. Skills of skateboardingC. The new PED. The change of PE【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C【解析】试题分析：在学校里开展的一些新的体育项目，如轮滑，瑜伽等等，以及人们对此的不同观点。有人认为这样的运动项目对孩子的发展是十分有好处的。【8题详解】D 细节理解题。根据第二段Such activities are part of a larger effort to help kids develop lifelong fitness habits and to keep them from becoming overweight.这些活动是一项更大的努力的一部分，以帮助孩子们养成终身健身的习惯，说明D正确。【9题详解】A 词义猜测题。根据第四段1,2行Some schools dont allow skateboarding because they say it is dangerous. Cendali, however, argues that regular practiceeliminatesa great deal of the danger.说明Cendali的观点和其它的学校不一样，他人们轮滑并不危险，反而可以减少危险，因为We teach students how to do it and how to do it safely我们教学生如何做，如何安全做。故A正确。10题详解】B 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第三段1,2行“Skateboarding teaches kids to believe that if they stick with something they will finally succeed滑板让孩子们相信，如果他们坚持下去，最终会成功。”说明B下内容与之相符。故B正确。【11题详解】C主旨大意题。根据文章第一段Skateboarding has become one of several non - traditional activities that PE teachers around America are introducing to inspire kids to exercise regularly. Some PE classes feature in-line (滚轮) skating, yoga, and even rock climbing. Experts have called those types of activities “the new PE”.及全文内容可知，本文关于的是在学校里开展的一些新的体育项目，如轮滑，瑜伽等等，以及人们对此的不同观点。故C正确。点评：本文考查考生的细节推理能力，本文主旨鲜明,很容易在文中找到答案。做题时要注意文章的首段和每一段的首句或尾句，因为它们往往就是文章的主题句。阅读中要注意要点之间的关系。然后带着问题，再读全文，找出答题所需要的依据，完成阅读任务。DA company in San Francisco, California, has found a way to turn used plastic bottles into womens shoes.Every day, millions of Americans drink water and other liquids from plastic bottles. More than 60 million of them are thrown away each day. Many of the plastic bottles end up in landfills or are burned with other waste products.A San Francisco start-up company called Rothys, however, turns this plastic waste into environmentally friendly shoes. Roth Martin is the companys co-founder. He explains how they turn plastic into soft material for womens feet. They take the plastic, clean it, and break it down into small pieces. Then they press them through a device that makes soft fibers. Those fibers are then combined together. This is done by a 3D machine. It is designed to reduce waste while making the shoes. The knitted stuff and the inner part of the shoe are then attached to the shoes outer part, called the sole (鞋底). This outer sole is also made from environmentally friendly material: responsibly sourced no-carbon rubber.Rothys shoes are sold online. They are flat shoes, with either a rounded or pointed toe. They come in different colors and designs. They cost either $ 125 or $ 145 per pair, depending on the design. After American actress Gwyneth Paltrow discovered them last year, the demand for the shoes grew. Martin says there is no shortage of material to fill that demand. “Were not going to run out of water bottles any time soon. So we have a limitless supply of material, and I think that is a good sign for our future.” When the environmentally friendly shoes wear out, customers can return them at no cost to a company that uses the recycled materials to make other products.For now, the shoes are only available to be shipped in the United States. However, the company says it will add international shipping in the near future.12. How are used plastic bottles usually dealt with?A. They are buried or burned.B. They are used to make shoes.C. They are changed into soft materials.D. They arc returned to factories for reuse.13. What does the underlined word knitted in the third paragraph mean?A. Attached.B. Fixed.C. Combined.D. Repaired.14. Which of the following directly helped to increase the sales of Rothys shoes?A. The design and color.B. The reasonable price.C. The companys advertisement.D. The star power of Gwyneth Paltrow.15. What is the purpose of the text?A. To advertise a new kind of shoes.B. To describe the process of making shoes.C. To introduce a new way of recycling plastic waste.D. To stress the importance of environmental protection.【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. C【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍一种回收塑料垃圾的新方法。【12题详解】A细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句Many of the plastic bottles end up in landfills or are burned with other waste products.可知，废弃塑料瓶的处理方法是被埋葬或焚烧。故选A。【13题详解】C词义猜测题。根据第三段中Those fibers are then combined together. （这些纤维结合在一起。）This is done by a 3D machine. It is designed to reduce waste while making the shoes. （它的设计目的是在制造鞋子的同时减少浪费。）The knitted stuff and the inner part of the shoe are then attached to the shoes outer part, called the sole (鞋底).（这些knitted东西和鞋的内部部分被连接到鞋的外部分，叫做鞋底）由此推出划线词的意思是“结合的”。故选C。【14题详解】D细节理解题。根据第四段中After American actress Gwyneth Paltrow discovered them last year, the demand for the shoes grew.美国女演员Gwyneth Paltrow发现了这种鞋后，对这种鞋需求增加了。可知，D项（The star power of Gwyneth Paltrow.）直接帮助增加Rothy鞋子的销售。故选D。【15题详解】C目的意图题。根据第一段A company in San Francisco, California, has found a way to turn used plastic bottles into womens shoes.加利福尼亚旧金山的一家公司发现了一种把用过的塑料瓶变成女鞋的方法。可知本文是为了介绍一种回收塑料垃圾的新方法。故选C。第二节 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。The “Chong Yang Festival” is celebrated on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, which is also known as the Double Ninth Festival. _16_Climbing MountainsPeople like to climb mountains on this festival, so Double Ninth Festival is also called “Mountain-climbing Festival”.The 9th lunar month, with clear autumn sky and bracing air, is a
