4 World Heritage (遗产)Sites in China
The Temple of Heaven
Located in the southern part of Beijing, the Temple of Heaven is a magnificent complex (综合建筑群) of fine cultural buildings set in gardens. The sacred (神圣的) place served as a complex of sacrificial (献祭的) buildings for the Ming and Qing emperors, and is the largest one in Beijing among several royal altars (神坛) to Heaven, Earth, the Sun , the Moon and other symbolic forces of nature. It symbolizes the relationship between earth and heaven --- the human world and God’s world --- which stands at the heart of Chinese cosmogony (宇宙进化论).
Mogao Caves
Located on south-east of the Dunhuang oasis, Gansu province, the Mogao caves, also known as the Thousand-Buddha Caves, are the world’s largest and longest used treasure house of Buddhist art. According to historical records, the carving of the caves started in 366 AD and continued for about 1000 years. The 492 well-preserved cells and cave sanctuaries (内殿)in Mogao, housing about 45000 square meters of murals (壁画)and more than 2000 painted sculptures (雕塑), are well-known for their statues (雕像)and wall paintings.
Fujian tulou
Fujian tulou consists of (is made up of) 46 buildings constructed (built) between the 15th and 20th centuries. Several stories high, the earthen houses were built along an inward-looking , circular(圆形的) or square floor plan as housing for up to 800 people each. They were built for defense(防御) purposes around a central open courtyard (庭院)with only one entrance and windows to the outside only above the first floor. Housing a whole clan (家族), the houses functioned as village units and were known as “ a little kingdom for the family”.
The Leshan Giant Buddha
The Leshan Giant Buddha is said to be the biggest Buddha statue in the world. The way in which the cultural features (特色) have been integrated (成一体)with the natural scenery is considered to be a precious legacy (遗产).The Giant Buddha statue, carved on the mountain, stands 71m high, with its back against Mount Jiuding. There are more than 90 stone carvings and Buddha shrines (神坛)on both sides of the Giant Buddha.
1. Which of the following served as a sacrificial place in the past
A. Fujian tulou. B. Mogao.
C. The Temple of Heaven. D. The Leshan Giant Buddha.
2. What feature of Fujian tulou shows its defensive function
A. They are several stories high.
B. They can hold hundreds of people.
C. They have windows on the first floor.
D. They have only one access to the outside.
3. What do Mogao Caves and The Leshan Giant Buddha have in common
A. They were both royal places. B. They were both found in caves.
C. They are both religious resorts (名胜). D. They both have historic murals.

Kids are three times more likely to choose to be Internet celebrities (名人) than astronauts, a survey found recently. Many are already on their way - more and more children are now making and sharing videos on social media.
Meanwhile, education experts worry that going after Internet fame won’t be good for children in the long run. Their biggest concern is that kids don’t know how being on the Internet today might affect them in the future. The parts of the brain that people use to make decisions don’t fully mature until around age 25, so children cannot imagine how their future might be affected by what they share now.
What’s worse, some parents, who are crazy about becoming famous on their own, can’t watch out for the best interests of their own children. A young mother, Michelle Hobson, was accused of starving and kicking her children when they didn’t do what she wished for in the videos. She was charged with child abuse and ordered to distance herself from kids.
Keeping famous on the Internet takes much time and patience, too. It can distract students away from homework, sports and other activities. For example, one of the superstars, 14-year-old Emma Garza, dropped out of school to become a Vlogger (video blogger). She said that making videos was so tough that she couldn’t make time for study and even suffered back pain and weakening eyesight.
Although we don’t yet know the effects on a child’s development by constantly performing to entertain others, we can easily imagine that the effort to attract viewers will be less helpful to a kid, compared with spending that time reading a book. For a kid today, becoming an Internet superstar might not only be more popular than being an astronaut. It might also be more dangerous.
4. What problem is discussed in Paragraph 1
A. Internet affects kids’ growth. B. Young kids seek Internet fame.
C. Social media mislead children. D. Children watch too many videos.
5. What is the major concern of education experts about children
A. Security. B. Family. C. Study. D. Future.
6. Why is Emma Garza mentioned in the passage
A. To highlight her success. B. To introduce a new career.
C. To show the impact on students. D. To encourage kids to be Vloggers.
7. What does the author think of children’s being an Internet celebrity
A. Exciting. B. Doubtful. C. Beneficial. D. Negative.
C
In an effort to fight the “throw-away culture” and promote reuse and repair, the city of Berlin has taken the unique step of opening its own secondhand department store.
This isn’t your grandma’s thrift shop (旧货商店). It resells perfectly good items that would otherwise be thrown away. A pun on the German words for “department store” and “conserving house”, B-Wa(h)renhaus sells a wide variety of products. Far from simply selling old items, the electronic goods have been fixed by expert technicians and come with a year’s guarantee. And, to reach more secondhand shoppers, the store was set up right in the middle of the famous Karstadt department store.
With the success of its initial six-month trial run, the city plans to open four more similar operations in other parts of Berlin. By 2030, it hopes to have at least one location in each of Berlin’s 12 districts. Since 2008, city policies and educational campaigns have reduced average annual household waste by about 25 pounds per resident. It also recycles about 49% of its mineral construction waste. Currently, the city estimates that 8% of abandoned electronic goods and 6% of huge items thrown away can actually be reused. The goal is to expand the market for these items beyond the usual bargain hunters and eco-conscious consumers.
“Three years ago, we started collecting all kinds of used goods,” city spokesperson Dorothee Winden said. “There are lots of things that are well-preserved and functioning but aren’t being used anymore. The goal is to give these things a new life with somebody who can use them.” The store also includes an education center to encourage more sustainable lifestyles — and also gave an award to a project that recycles school uniforms, so that parents don’t have to buy new ones every year.
8. Why has Berlin opened its own secondhand department store
A. To attract more shoppers. B. To promote recycling.
C. To foster traditional culture. D. To expand secondhand market.
9. In which aspect is B-Wa(h)renhaus different from the traditional thrift store
A. The variety of the goods. B. The location of the store.
C. The quality of the products. D. The operation of the store.
10. What can we infer from Paragraph 3
A. Berlin currently has 4 second-hand stores in construction.
B. Berlin has been successful in cutting its waste since 2008.
C. It is not easy to make the goal to expand the market a reality.
D. It is estimated that Berlin will be a zero-waste city by 2030.
11. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text
A. To introduce Berlin’s new reuse shop operation.
B. To raise people’s awareness of reasonable shopping.
C. To persuade people to become eco-friendly shoppers.
D. To encourage more people to donate to secondhand shops.
D
Scientist at University College London have discovered sets of regulatory genes, which are responsible for maintaining healthy hearing. The finding, made in fruit flies, could lead to treatments for age-related hearing loss (ARHL) in humans.
Globally, one-third of people aged over 65 experience hearing impairment, and while there are thought to be more than 150 genes that may affect hearing loss, there is no unified (统一的) view on how to use these to develop hearing loss treatments.
In the study, published in Scientific Reports, researchers are at the UCL Ear Institute assessed the hearing ability of the common fruit fly across its life span (around 70 days) to see if their hearing declines with age.
A fruit fly’s ears share many molecular (分子的) similarities with the ears of humans, making it an ideal tool for the study of human hearing loss.
Researchers found that the antennal ears of fruit flies also display ARHL with nearly all sensitive hearing measures starting to decline after 50 days of age. This made the researchers want to know if there were any “age-variable” genes in the flies’ inner ears which have kept the ears healthy for 50 days of their lives.
After closer examination, researchers identified a new set of regulatory genes-homeostasis genes. These genes are often responsible for picking up sound and the overall sensitivity of the ear. Using this information, scientists were then able to genetically modify (修改) the genes and prevent the flies from getting ARHL.
Professor Joerg Albert, lead author of the study, said: “While many studies have been conducted into the hearing function of fruit flies, ours is the first to look at the mechanistic and molecular detail of their auditory life course.”
“The fact that these genes are conserved in humans will also help to focus future clinical research in humans and thereby accelerate the discovery of new pharmacological or gene-therapeutic strategies.”
12. What did scientists at UCL discover
A. One-third of people aged over 65 have hearing problems.
B. Homeostasis genes maintain one’s ability to hear.
C. There are regulatory genes that are related to aging.
D. Humans have over 150 genes that can affect hearing loss.
13. Why were fruit flies used in the research
A. Their hearing system is similar to that of humans’.
B. Their hearing ability also declines with age.
C. They display ARHL during their lifespan.
D. They share many genes with humans.
14. What is the main purpose of the last two paragraphs
A. The discovery of new treatments. B. The significance of the study.
C. The result of the study. D. The future commercial prospects.
15. Which of the following would be the best title for the text
A. Age-related hearing loss: fruit flies and humans
B. Hearing loss: a common problem for older adults.
C. Gene discovery could lead to hearing loss treatments.
D. The body’s ability can be unlocked to treat lost hearing.

Why do people take “selfies(自拍) ”
Researchers at Syracuse University in New York tried to answer that question. ______16______ People who post selfies and use editing software to make themselves look better show behavior connected to admiring themselves too much, the Syracuse researchers said. ______17______ As social media can be shallow, it is a good place for people to “work towards satisfying their own overmuch pride.”
___18___ People who post group selfies show a need for popularity and a need to belong to a group, the Syracuse University research found.
Other findings from the study include: There are no major differences on how often men and women post selfies and how often they use editing software. ______19______
The Newhouse School’s Associate Professor Makana Chock worked on the study. She said, posting selfies on social media is not all that different from what people have done for many years. On trips, our parents and grandparents used cameras to take photos. Before social media, people would bring back photos to show friends and family. You had no choice but to look at them. If you are a nice person, you commented about how nice everyone in the photos looked, especially children and the person showing the photos. ______20______
On social media, it is a different experience. People can decide not to look at photos of their friends and family even if they click “like” or even “love” under the Facebook selfie.
A. That was the old way of “clicking” like.
B. They came up with some surprising answers.
C. Different people have different opinions about it.
D. Such people think very highly of themselves, especially how they look.
E. Both cameras and phones are useful tools to record people’s experiences.
F. There are other reasons, besides admiring themselves, why people post selfies.
G. But men desire to be seen as popular more than women when posting selfies.

Kids are three times more likely to choose to be Internet celebrities (名人) than astronauts, a survey found recently. Many are already on their way - more and more children are now making and sharing videos on social media.
Meanwhile, education experts worry that going after Internet fame won’t be good for children in the long run. Their biggest concern is that kids don’t know how being on the Internet today might affect them in the future. The parts of the brain that people use to make decisions don’t fully mature until around age 25, so children cannot imagine how their future might be affected by what they share now.
What’s worse, some parents, who are crazy about becoming famous on their own, can’t watch out for the best interests of their own children. A young mother, Michelle Hobson, was accused of starving and kicking her children when they didn’t do what she wished for in the videos. She was charged with child abuse and ordered to distance herself from kids.
Keeping famous on the Internet takes much time and patience, too. It can distract students away from homework, sports and other activities. For example, one of the superstars, 14-year-old Emma Garza, dropped out of school to become a Vlogger (video blogger). She said that making videos was so tough that she couldn’t make time for study and even suffered back pain and weakening eyesight.
Although we don’t yet know the effects on a child’s development by constantly performing to entertain others, we can easily imagine that the effort to attract viewers will be less helpful to a kid, compared with spending that time reading a book. For a kid today, becoming an Internet superstar might not only be more popular than being an astronaut. It might also be more dangerous.
4. What problem is discussed in Paragraph 1
A. Internet affects kids’ growth. B. Young kids seek Internet fame.
C. Social media mislead children. D. Children watch too many videos.
5. What is the major concern of education experts about children
A. Security. B. Family. C. Study. D. Future.
6. Why is Emma Garza mentioned in the passage

【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“For example, one of the superstars, 14-year-old Emma Garza, dropped out of school to become a Vlogger (video blogger). She said that making videos was so tough that she couldn’t make time for study and even suffered back pain and weakening eyesight.( 例如,其中一个超级明星,14岁的Emma Garza,辍学成为一名视频博主。她说,制作视频非常困难,她没有时间学习,甚至背痛和视力下降。)”可知,Emma Garza是网红、视频博主,但是制作视频耗时伤身体,她只能辍学。从而推断她的例子展示了沉迷网络视频对学生的影响。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。本文从三方面阐述了沉迷网络视频对青少年的不良影响,而且从最后一段“Although we don’t yet know the effects on a child’s development by constantly performing to entertain others, we can easily imagine that the effort to attract viewers will be less helpful to a kid, compared with spending that time reading a book. For a kid today, becoming an Internet superstar might not only be more popular than being an astronaut. It might also be more dangerous.( 虽然我们还不知道不断表演娱乐他人会对孩子的发展产生什么影响,但我们可以很容易地想象,与花时间读书相比,吸引观众的努力对孩子的帮助会更小。对于今天的孩子来说,成为网络巨星可能不仅仅比成为一名宇航员更受欢迎。它也可能更危险。)”可推断,作者对于青少年沉迷网络视频的现象持反对态度。故选D。

In an effort to fight the “throw-away culture” and promote reuse and repair, the city of Berlin has taken the unique step of opening its own secondhand department store.
This isn’t your grandma’s thrift shop (旧货商店). It resells perfectly good items that would otherwise be thrown away. A pun on the German words for “department store” and “conserving house”, B-Wa(h)renhaus sells a wide variety of products. Far from simply selling old items, the electronic goods have been fixed by expert technicians and come with a year’s guarantee. And, to reach more secondhand shoppers, the store was set up right in the middle of the famous Karstadt department store.
With the success of its initial six-month trial run, the city plans to open four more similar operations in other parts of Berlin. By 2030, it hopes to have at least one location in each of Berlin’s 12 districts. Since 2008, city policies and educational campaigns have reduced average annual household waste by about 25 pounds per resident. It also recycles about 49% of its mineral construction waste. Currently, the city estimates that 8% of abandoned electronic goods and 6% of huge items thrown away can actually be reused. The goal is to expand the market for these items beyond the usual bargain hunters and eco-conscious consumers.
“Three years ago, we started collecting all kinds of used goods,” city spokesperson Dorothee Winden said. “There are lots of things that are well-preserved and functioning but aren’t being used anymore. The goal is to give these things a new life with somebody who can use them.” The store also includes an education center to encourage more sustainable lifestyles — and also gave an award to a project that recycles school uniforms, so that parents don’t have to buy new ones every year.
8. Why has Berlin opened its own secondhand department store
A. To attract more shoppers. B. To promote recycling.
C. To foster traditional culture. D. To expand secondhand market.
9. In which aspect is B-Wa(h)renhaus different from the traditional thrift store
A. The variety of the goods. B. The location of the store.
C. The quality of the products. D. The operation of the store.
10. What can we infer from Paragraph 3
A. Berlin currently has 4 second-hand stores in construction.
B. Berlin has been successful in cutting its waste since 2008.
C. It is not easy to make the goal to expand the market a reality.
D. It is estimated that Berlin will be a zero-waste city by 2030.
11. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text
A. To introduce Berlin’s new reuse shop operation.
B. To raise people’s awareness of reasonable shopping.
C. To persuade people to become eco-friendly shoppers.
D. To encourage more people to donate to secondhand shops.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. A

Scientist at University College London have discovered sets of regulatory genes, which are responsible for maintaining healthy hearing. The finding, made in fruit flies, could lead to treatments for age-related hearing loss (ARHL) in humans.
Globally, one-third of people aged over 65 experience hearing impairment, and while there are thought to be more than 150 genes that may affect hearing loss, there is no unified (统一的) view on how to use these to develop hearing loss treatments.
In the study, published in Scientific Reports, researchers are at the UCL Ear Institute assessed the hearing ability of the common fruit fly across its life span (around 70 days) to see if their hearing declines with age.
A fruit fly’s ears share many molecular (分子的) similarities with the ears of humans, making it an ideal tool for the study of human hearing loss.
Researchers found that the antennal ears of fruit flies also display ARHL with nearly all sensitive hearing measures starting to decline after 50 days of age This made the researchers want to know if there were any “age-variable” genes in the flies’ inner ears which have kept the ears healthy for 50 days of their lives.
After closer examination, researchers identified a new set of regulatory genes-homeostasis genes. These genes are often responsible for picking up sound and the overall sensitivity of the ear. Using this information, scientists were then able to genetically modify (修改) the genes and prevent the flies from getting ARHL.
Professor Joerg Albert, lead author of the study, said: “While many studies have been conducted into the hearing function of fruit flies, ours is the first to look at the mechanistic and molecular detail of their auditory life course.”
“The fact that these genes are conserved in humans will also help to focus future clinical research in humans and thereby accelerate the discovery of new pharmacological or gene-therapeutic strategies.”
12. What did scientists at UCL discover
A. One-third of people aged over 65 have hearing problems.
B. Homeostasis genes maintain one’s ability to hear.
C. There are regulatory genes that are related to aging.
D. Humans have over 150 genes that can affect hearing loss.
13. Why were fruit flies used in the research
A. Their hearing system is similar to that of humans’.
B. Their hearing ability also declines with age.
C. They display ARHL during their lifespan.
D. They share many genes with humans.
14. What is the main purpose of the last two paragraphs
A. The discovery of new treatments. B. The significance of the study.
C. The result of the study. D. The future commercial prospects.
15. Which of the following would be the best title for the text
A. Age-related hearing loss: fruit flies and humans
B. Hearing loss: a common problem for older adults.
C. Gene discovery could lead to hearing loss treatments.
D. The body’s ability can be unlocked to treat lost hearing.

Why do people take “selfies(自拍) ”
Researchers at Syracuse University in New York tried to answer that question. ______16______ People who post selfies and use editing software to make themselves look better show behavior connected to admiring themselves too much, the Syracuse researchers said. ______17______ As social media can be shallow, it is a good place for people to “work towards satisfying their own overmuch pride.”
___18___ People who post group selfies show a need for popularity and a need to belong to a group, the Syracuse University research found.
Other findings from the study include: There are no major differences on how often men and women post selfies and how often they use editing software. ______19______
The Newhouse School’s Associate Professor Makana Chock worked on the study. She said, posting selfies on social media is not all that different from what people have done for many years. On trips, our parents and grandparents used cameras to take photos. Before social media, people would bring back photos to show friends and family. You had no choice but to look at them. If you are a nice person, you commented about how nice everyone in the photos looked, especially children and the person showing the photos. ______20______
On social media, it is a different experience. People can decide not to look at photos of their friends and family even if they click “like” or even “love” under the Facebook selfie.
A. That was the old way of “clicking” like.
B. They came up with some surprising answers.
C. Different people have different opinions about it.
D. Such people think very highly of themselves, especially how they look.
E. Both cameras and phones are useful tools to record people’s experiences.
F. There are other reasons, besides admiring themselves, why people post selfies.
G. But men desire to be seen as popular more than women when posting selfies.

47. and/ while

【解析】
这是一篇说明文。空气中有很多颗粒是看不见的,对人体会产生危害,但幸运的是我们可以通过空气质量指数(AQI)来了解空气污染指数,保护自己的健康。
【41题详解】
考查被动语态。句意:还有一些是如此之小,只有用显微镜才能发现。动词discover(发现)和主语others构成被动关系,且在情态动词can后应用动词原形。故填be discovered。
【42题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:这些颗粒有许多大小和形状,可以由许多不同的化学物质组成。在many后应用可数名词复数。故填shapes。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:大多数粒子在大气中形成是化学物质复杂反应的结果,这些化学物质是来自发电厂、工业和汽车的污染物。表示“在大气中”应用介词in。故填in。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:大多数粒子在大气中形成是化学物质复杂反应的结果,这些化学物质是来自发电厂、工业和汽车的污染物。非限制性定语从句中缺少主语,且先行词为chemicals,所以应用关系代词which,that不能引导非限制性定语从句。故填which。
【45题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:颗粒物中含有微小的颗粒,这些颗粒非常小,如果被人吸入就会导致严重的疾病。描述一个客观的事实,用一般现在时,主语Particulate matter为第三人称单数。故填contains。
【46题详解】
考查副词。句意:颗粒物中含有微小的颗粒,这些颗粒非常小,如果被人吸入就会导致严重的疾病。修饰形容词ill应用副词。故填seriously。
【47题详解】
考查连词。句意:一些直径小于10微米的颗粒可以深入你的肺部,甚至可能进入你的血液。“Some particles less than 10 micrometers in diameter can get deep into your lungs”和“some may even get into your bloodstream”构成并列或对比,所以连词可用and或者while。故填and/ while。
【48题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意:其中,直径小于2.5微米的颗粒物(PM2.5)对健康危害最大。根据定冠词the和句意“最大的危害”可知,此处应用形容词最高级。故填greatest。
【49题详解】
考查形容词。句意:幸运的是,每天的空气质量指数(AQI)都会告诉你户外空气的清洁程度和污染程度,以及可能值得关注的相关的健康影响。根据how clean可知,此处应用形容词。形容词polluted意为“受污染的”。故填polluted。
【50题详解】
考查to do不定式。句意:空气质量指数将空气质量数据转化为数字和颜色,帮助你了解何时采取行动保护自己的健康。特殊疑问词后应用to do不定式。故填to take。
第四部分 写作(共两节,满分35分)
第一节 短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
51. 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共 有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词。
删除:把多余的词用斜线(\ )划掉.
修改:在错词下画一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意:1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;
2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。
I was far behind most of my classmate when I become a senior three student. Moreover, I couldn't follow the teacher completely in class. One day, I was too much exhausted and confused to concentrate on which the teacher taught. Unfortunate, I was invited to share my own idea. As you can imagine, I couldn't say a word. Feeling embarrassing, I ready to be criticized. Much on my astonishment, the teacher instructed and encouraged me patiently. I was such touched that I was determined to try his best to study hard. Now I am quite confident about my study.
【答案】
【解析】
【分析】文章是一篇记叙文。文章讲述的是作者在受到老师鼓励后,决心努力学习的故事。
【详解】1.考查名词复数。classmate是可数名词,由most of可知,此处应使用复数形式。故将classmate改为classmates。
2.考查动词时态。此处描述的是过去的事情,应使用一般过去时。故将become改为became。
3.考查固定搭配。too…to..意为“太……而不能……”。故删掉much。
4.考查宾语从句。分析句子,此处是宾语从句。on后面的成分做on的宾语,同时做taught的宾语,是个双重成分,应该用what。故将which改为what。
5.考查副词。应该是副词做状语,fortunate的副词是fortunately。故将fortunate改为fortunately。
6.考查形容词。分析句子是我感到尴尬,修饰人的感情,应该用ed形容词。故将embarrassing改为embarrassed。
7.考查固定搭配。be ready to do sth.意为“准备做某事”,又因为文章描述的是过去的事情,应使用一般过去时。故在ready前加was。
8.考查固定搭配。此处是to+one’s+抽象名词“令某人怎么样的是”。故将on改为to。
9.考查固定搭配。such…that与so…that意思相同,意为“如此……以致于……”,连接一个表示结果的状语从句;so修饰形容词或副词,而such修饰名词。touched是形容词要用so。故将such改为so。
10.考查形容词行物主代词。try one’s best意为“尽某人最大努力”,句子的主语是我,所以要用my。故将his改为my。
【点睛】在改错中,涉及固定搭配时一定要弄清楚相似的固定搭配的区别。比如倒数第2小题,考such…that与so…that的区别,学生必须清楚两者的区别是:so修饰形容词或副词,而such修饰名词。
