10、lar zone of east London comes from city councilors（ 议 员 ）long-term efforts to makethearea safer and less crowded.分析：这是一个简单句。句中不定式短语 to fine any vehicles 作 decision 的后置定 语；过去分词短语 seen.London 作 vehicles 的后置定语； dropping off or picking up kids 作补语，补充说明vehicles ；不定式短语 to make the area safer and less crow

11、ded 作 efforts 的后置定语。译文：对任何在特定区域内被看见停车或者接送小孩的车辆进行罚款的决定来自市议员 的长期努力，这些努力是为了使这些区域更加安全和少些拥挤。1 D 考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“ The nearest drop-off point for her six-year-old is now afive-minute walk from the school ”可知，对于她 6 岁的孩子来 说，最近的下车点离学校有五分钟的步行路程，据此可推知， Angie 认为不能在校门口停车 给孩子带来不便。所以选项 D 正确。选项 A 的意思是“伦敦警察经常对她进行罚款”，选

12、项B 意思是“她将失去校车司机这份工作”，这两个选项的信息在文章中都没有出现，所以都 是错误的；虽然文章第一段提到这种在校门口就让小孩下车的方法在美国是常见的方式，但如今在伦敦却是非法的，但是没有提到 Angie 已经适应了美国的这种惯例，所以选项 C 也是错误的。2C 考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“ long-term efforts to make the area saferand less crowded ”可知，选项 C 的表述“ Owing to safety concern ”是正确的。所以选项 C 正确。3.A 考查细节理解。根据第四段中的Traffic hasbeen cle

13、arly reduced, and morechildre n are now walk ing to school, which is a great outcome”可知，车辆已经明显减少，许多孩子正在步行上学，这是最大的结果，所以选项A 正确。4. D 考查主旨大意。根据全文可知，伦敦学校门口家长停车造成安全事故和交通堵塞，因此议员提议对这一现象进行制止， 由此引发家长的议论。因此选项 D 符合题意。选项 A “家 长尽力抵制这项校规”是以偏概全；根据第三段中的 Some parents are angry ”可知选项 B 的表述“伦敦警察引发了广泛的愤怒”也是不符合实际的，所以也是错误

14、的；C 项表述与文章内容不符，故排除。*语法填空Do you make friends _1_ (easy)? Do a wall-sit test and youll find out.Researchers at the Uni versity of Oxford did _2_study wjth 101 participa nts aged betwee n 18and 34.

18、式be asked to do sth. 。故填 to press。5.knees 考查名词的复数。knee 膝盖”，是可数名词，其前有their 修饰，所以要用复数形式，故填knees。6.which考查定语从句的引导词。设空处引导非限制性定语从句，引导词指代整个主句的内容，并且在从句中作主语，故填which。7.their考查代词。该空代替的是participants，而且后面有名词 network，所以要用复数形式的形容词性物主代词，故填their。& because 考查表语从句的连接词。句意：这是因为大脑的镇痛系统与疼痛的耐受性 和社会关系都有关，这意味着这个系统越活跃，你在

19、这两个方面表现得越好。此处表原因，故填 because。9.with 考查介词。be associated with为固定搭配，意为与有联系”，故填with。10.better考查形容词的比较级。“the +比较级，the +比较级”为常用句式，意为越.，越.”，故填 better。*完形填空。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，选出可能填入空白处的最佳选项。(2018 山西省太原市高三年级模拟试题(一)Whenmy kids were small , I started a tradition in our house of giving eight gifts
