一、阅读理解
People who have seen Trisha Seifried Woodall with her cats say that she has a magic touch. Most people don't know anyone who can order a cat to jump on a table, sit for two minutes, and then jump to the floor and walk backward.
Ms. Seifried Woodall has taught her cats to do all these tricks -- and many more. At her training center. Got Pet-ential, cats learn tricks for TV and magazine ads. Some of her cats have appeared on bags of cat food.
When Ms. Seifried Woodall gets a cat, she first learns what that cat likes and doesn’t like. “Some cats like to stay close to the ground, so I'll teach them how to stand behind me, and walk with me,”she says. “Other cats, like high places, so they'll learn how to jump on my bent knee and then safely leap to my shoulder.”
Ms. Seifried Woodall grew up in a family with many pets, and she was first paid to work with animals when she was 18. At a summer job at an amusement park, she learned how to train a few of the animals for performances. She continued to train and learn about animals for 20 years before starting her own animal-training center.
Ms. Seifried Woodall is proud of the skills her cats have learned, but she is also proud that her center’s cats are healthy and social. She believes her cats enjoy learning new tricks.
In Ms. Seifried Woodall’s experience, no breed(品种) of cat is easier to train than others. All of her cats came from shelters. They have become pets in her home.
Like most animal trainers, Ms. Seifried Woodall uses a reward system. Cats that are successful during training get food or a new toy. A cat that doesn’t enjoy eating or playing will probably not be interested in being trained. She never scolds(责骂) them. “Cats need a lot of encouragement when they are performing, she says." I say good job or that’s right several times during a single minute.”

Earthquakes strike suddenly at any time of the day or night, but there's no way to tell when. If an earthquake happens, it may cause many deaths, injuries and damage. So you need a good preparation ahead of time. Decide how and where your family will get together if separated. Choose an out -of -state friend or relative that the family members can call after the quake to report where they are and how they are. Know the safe places in each room: under the strong tables, desks, or against inside walls. Keep enough food, water and other things, including a flashlight, a radio, medicines and clothing.
During the earthquake, you should keep a clear head and never be too nervous to know what to do. Protect your head and neck with your arms. If possible, take a book, a pillow or any other things to protect yourself from falling glass and ruins. If you are indoors, you must immediately lie under any strong furniture. If outdoors, move to an open area away from trees, buildings, walls or power-poles. If you are in a narrow valley, move to the centre of it and look up for falling stones. If you are in a car, move to the side of the road and stop the car. Do not stop near buildings, power lines or on or under bridges. Stay in your car until the shaking stops.
Do not move a badly injured person unless he is in great danger after the earthquake. Do not use the telephone immediately unless there is a serious injury or fire. Turn on your radio for instructions and news reports. Be prepared for aftershocks. If you want to leave your home, post a message inside your home telling your family members where you can be found.

Scholarship Application Tips in 2018 for college students
Before you apply Work hard to get good grades. Don’t sweat about one bad grade, but always strive to do your best. Get involved, and stay involved, in out-of-class activities. Sports, clubs, drama, bands and orchestras — these often count toward a student’s overall scholarship application evaluation. The same goes for paid (or unpaid) work experience. Begin your scholarship research early — by your sophomore or junior year of high school, if possible. Make special note of application deadlines, as they can vary from late summer to late spring. Apply for as many scholarships as you are eligible for — several smaller scholarships can add up to a lot of money. During the application process Read the supplementary materials that come with scholarship application forms to better understand the program’s focus (community service, subject interest). Try to answer the questions with the focus area in mind. Answer questions as they are asked. Don’t go off topic. If there is a financial section to the application, make sure you get accurate and complete information from all appropriate sources to ensure your eligibility. Take your time. Write down everything you can think of for each question, then set the application aside for a day so you can look everything over again before you send it off. Don’t wait until the last minute to complete your application, especially if you are applying puter systems can get blocked with the large volume of applicants hoping to submit their qualifications during the last few days and hours before a deadline. If a third party has to complete part of your application, such as providing a letter of recommendation, make sure you ask them early on and remind them as often as necessary to ensure they provide you with the necessary materials. Last but not least, review your application with your parents to make sure you haven’t left out any important details. Good luck to the students applying for the 2018 scholarship programs!
9.Before you apply for a scholarship, it’s best to ______.
A.pay more attention to grades than to out-of-class activities

C.get as much work experience as possible
D.begin your preparation as early as possible

Reading is an important part of learning English, but many students find it difficult. 12 .

Grandpa Bill Rodgers has narrowly escaped a phone scam (欺骗). It all began with a telephone call.
Bill is an elderly man from Cincinnati, Ohio, who was looking forward to spending time with his family over the holidays. They were all coming to visit him at his Elmwood Place home, including his adult grandson David. One afternoon, while napping in bed, he was awakened by the sharp ringing of his telephone.
“Who will ring me up at this time ” He wondered. Peering towards the phone, he hesitantly picked it up. From the receiver came an urgent voice. “Grandpa, this is David. I am in trouble.” Before Bill could ask him any question, he continued, on and off, half crying, “I hit a woman’s car and she was seven months pregnant. And they charged me with drunken driving and I’m in prison...” He sobbed loudly. His voice was so broken that Bill could hardly match it with the gentle and warm voice of his grandson. Poor David! He must be suffering! Bill panicked (惊慌) immediately.
Without more detailed communication, the phone passed suddenly to another person — David’s lawyer who had a deeper voice. Seemingly, he understood Bill’s anxiety and attempted to comfort him with a solution. “Now the only way to help David is to go to Wal-Mart and transfer $2,300 to another store. I would pick up the money and then use it to post David’s bail (保释金).” “I am sure everything would be OK as long as the money is in place,” he added. Ultimately, he lowered his voice, “Don’t tell anybody. You don’t want to make your grandson look ugly in your neighborhood.” The lawyer hung up even before Bill could give an answer.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
Bill was totally at a loss.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
The lucky part of Bill’s day was when he stepped into cashier Mary’s line in Wal-Mart.

38.考查代词。句意:那是我们第一次看到浣熊。分析句子可知,该空修饰名词,应用形容词性物主代词。故填our。
39.考查固定搭配。句意:在大城市里,它很自在,不理我们,只专注于找一顿美味的午餐。固定搭配pay attention to意为“专注于”,pay no attention to意为“毫不在意”。故填to。
40.考查名词。句意:它看了几样东西,然后用爪子夹着一个有包装的的三明治出来。分析句子可知,该空作动词短语looked through的宾语,用名词,a few修饰可数名词复数。故填things。
41.考查副词。句意:孩子们被深深地吸引住了,浣熊比任何博物馆都能提供更好的娱乐。分析句子成分可知,设空处修饰动词attracted,应用副词。故填deeply。
42.考查比较级。句意:孩子们被深深地吸引住了,浣熊比任何博物馆都能提供更好的娱乐。根据句中的“than”可知,此处应该使用good的比较级形式。故填better。
43.考查固定搭配。句意:它看了我们一眼,也许是为了确保我们不会偷它的午餐。固定搭配have a look at意为“看”。故填a。
44.考查固定搭配。句意:它用细细的手指,设法剥掉了一层一层的包装纸,直到露出了吃了一半的三明治。固定搭配manage to do sth.意为“设法做成某事”,后面应接动词不定式。故填to remove。
45.考查主语从句。句意:然后,它所做的一切真的让我们大吃一惊。分析句子结构可知, 9 he did是一个主语从句,引导词在从句中作宾语,指事物,用what引导该从句。故填what。
46.考查固定搭配。句意:它没有开始吃东西,而是转向附近的一个游泳池,把手伸进去。固定搭配instead of doing sth.意为“代替做某事”,后接动名词作宾语。故填starting。
47.One possible version:
Sunday, 10 May Sunny
Today I took part in a volunteer activity which was organised by the students’ union of our school.
My classmates and I took a bus to the Animal Reserve Center in our city, where some stray dogs are kept. As soon as we arrived, the workers told us how these animals were collected and what they did to help them. Then we were divided into small groups and helped them clean the cages. We were given some food to feed these animals.
I learned a lot from this activity. Animals need our care and attention, so we should devote our time to taking care of them.

48. Bill was totally at a loss. His mind went blank and David’s heartbreaking sobs were echoing in his ears. Without a second thought, he quickly grabbed his bank card and decided to spare no effort to go to David’s rescue. With the card tightly in his hand, he rushed out to the bank. After withdrawing the money, he went straight to the local Wal-Mart. He was overwhelmed by the thought “Send the money and my grandson will be saved”.
The lucky part of Bill’s day was when he stepped into cashier Mary’s line in Wal-Mart. Noting Bill’s desperate and anxious look, Mary instantly knew something was wrong. Yet, having the lawyer’s words in mind, Bill stubbornly refused to leak out any information and insisted on transferring the money. Suddenly an idea hit Mary. “I guess you are worrying about somebody. I bet if you call him right now, he will answer the call.” she suggested. Though doubtful, Bill pressed the telephone keys. The ending can be expected: David was safe and sound and Bill realized that he nearly fell victim to a phone scam!
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了老人Bill一天突然接到一个电话,电话里称孙子David遇到了麻烦,被指控酒后驾车,现在关在监狱里。律师告诉老人唯一能帮助David的方法就是去沃尔玛把2300美元转到另一家商店,然后用它来交David的保释金。并且嘱咐老人不要把这件事告诉别人。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“Bill完全不知所措。”可知,第一段应该描写老人想尽办法救孙子,取了钱去沃尔玛转钱。
②由第二段首句内容“Bill一天中最幸运的时刻是,他走进了沃尔玛并且遇到了收银员Mary。”可知,第二段应该描写Mary怎样帮助老人识破骗局,使钱财没有损失。
2.续写线索:取钱——匆忙去转钱——遇到Mary——询问——帮助老人——识破骗局
