24、essman, is reportedly worth nearly $80 billion, making him one of the wealthiest people in the country today. He founded and was head of Microsoft for years. Gates was born into a rich family in the state of Washington. His father was a lawyer; his mother was a banker. He is famous for being taken

25、as the father of the modern computer. He studied at Harvard University but did not graduate because of his desire to develop new software. As a 13-year-old student, Gates was introduced to computer programming. In 1975, Gates spoke to a company called Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems (MI

26、TS). He convinced the owner of the company that he had written a program that would work well and make big money. The owner bought into Gates' inventions, and the two men reached an agreement to develop software for the company. Then the Microsoft Company was born. Gates went on to develop the Win

27、dows operating system with then partner IBM. The two companies had differences though, and their partnership ended quickly. Gates worked as CEO until 2000.

I believed she had been abused (虐待) because she was afraid of anything my husband, Bill, or I held in our hands. With a lot of care and attenti

29、on, she became a great dog that surprised us every day. About three years ago, Amy and I joined a volunteer project called Canines with Class. At our first school visit, Officer Lisa called Amy and asked her to show how to shake hands and give a high five. The students clapped (拍手) in joy and Amy r

30、eceived a reward. Then the students got to touch the dog. One by one they came up to meet Amy. Some of them started talking to me about their own pets. I didn't feel worried any more. I thought the children liked staying with us. On our next school visit, I put a big chain (鏈條) on Amy's neck and wa

31、lked away from her. You could see that Amy was not happy. When I took the chain off her neck, Amy shook her tail happily and wouldn't stop licking (舔) my face. That was when we talked about “breaking the chain”． On our third school trip, Amy started acting poorly when it was time to show off a few

32、tricks. The students watched to see how I would correct her mistakes. It was a good chance to explain that if your dog doesn't do exactly what you ask, you don't have to shout at her or hit her to make it right. I think the children have learned a lot about respect and patience. Amy loves the progr

33、am and has come so far since I found her a few years ago. Amy has broken the chain, and the love she gives to those children will help them become good pet owners. 語篇解讀：本文是一篇記敘文。作者與自己領(lǐng)養(yǎng)的狗參加了一個志愿者項目，旨在告訴人們要善待動物。 21．During the first school visit, the author was most probably ________. A．nervous　　　　

34、　　　 B．encouraged C．calm D．upset 解析：選B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段的“Some of them started ... staying with us.”可推斷，剛開始作者也很擔心，但是和孩子們交流之后發(fā)現(xiàn)，孩子們也喜歡他們來學(xué)校，因此作者深受鼓舞。 22．What was the purpose of the second school visit? A．To show how dogs get happy. B．To encourage children to be free. C．To encourage children to save d

35、ogs. D．To show why we should stop using dog chains. 解析：選D　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的“That was when we talked about ‘breaking the chain.’”可知，第二次去學(xué)校交流的目的是為了告訴孩子們狗不喜歡被鏈子拴住，我們應(yīng)該停止使用狗鏈。 23．What did the children learn from the third school trip? A．Dogs are stupid at times. B．Everyone makes mistakes. C．Dog owners

36、should be patient. D．People should respect each other. 解析：選C　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段的“It was a good chance ... respect and patience.”可推斷，孩子們學(xué)會了對寵物要有耐心。 B In an effort to stop poaching (偷獵) and protect endangered species, people are using technology previously created to discover stars.Claire Burke, who led

37、the project, says the application of the star-hunting tech has so far paid off big for conservation.“Since animals and humans in thermal imagery (熱成像) ‘glow’ in the same way as stars in space, we have been able to combine the technical expertise of astronomers with the conservation knowledge of ecol

38、ogists to develop a system to find the animals or poachers automatically，” she said in a statement. In addition to species identification, the software can also provide an overview of health.Burke said that diseased or injured animals give off a different thermal imagery than the healthy ones.“The

39、real advantage this gives you is that if you know how many animals you have and where they are and what kind of health they are in, then you can work out a good conservation strategy for looking after them，” she said. The following is a post written by Burke on Twitter: More animals for the thermal

40、 imagery library.Thanks to Chester Zoo Science @ScienceatCZ for letting us observe their fantastic creatures.Images are giraffes, Indian elephants, and fruit bats.— Claire Burke (@CBurkeSci) October 27. To train the software on a wide variety of heat signatures from different species, the team of r

41、esearchers spent time collecting thermal imagery of animals.Their first field trial to detect Riverine rabbits, one of the most endangered mammals in the world (with only 500 living adults left in the wild), was a complete success.“The rabbits are very small, so we flew the drone (無人機) quite low to

42、the ground at a height of 20 meters (65 feet)．Although this limited the area we could cover with the drone, we managed to see the rabbit five times，” said Burke.“Given that there have only been about 1,000 times people have seen Riverine rabbits, it was a real success.” 語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。為保護瀕危動物、防止偷獵，研

43、究人員利用天文學(xué)中用來尋星的技術(shù)來定位動物和偷獵者。 24．What can people decide by observing the thermal imagery of the animals? A．What the animals are doing. B．When the animals need help. C．Whether the animals are healthy. D．Why the animals are in danger. 解析：選C　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第一句“In addition to species identification, the

44、software can also provide an overview of health.”可知，使用這種熱成像技術(shù)，不僅可以辨別物種，而且還能觀測到動物的健康狀況。 25．What did the researchers find out after detecting the Riverine rabbits? A．The number of them is decreasing. B．It is difficult for people to identify them. C．There are more of them than people thought. D．It

45、 is easier to find them using the high-tech tool. 解析：選D　推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后兩句可知，南非山兔非常稀有，研究者們使用這種新技術(shù)觀察到南非山兔5次，相比起過去人們共觀察到南非山兔大約1 000次，這個比率已經(jīng)非常高了。 26．What is the text mainly about? A．Technology has helped a lot in helping the endangered animals. B．Researchers use stargazing tools to protect endangered s

46、pecies. C．What we should do to protect the endangered animals. D．Scientists are working hard to protect the environment. 解析：選B　主旨大意題。本文介紹了研究人員利用天文學(xué)中用來尋找星星的工具來對瀕危動物實施保護。 C The sun rises above the Arctic Ocean (北冰洋). Across the frozen sea, a white bear moves slowly. The bear stops and sways (搖晃)

47、 his head from side to side. There is nothing to see but endless ice and red sky. Then his powerful nose senses what his eyes cannot: a beluga whale is nearby. The bear follows the smell and spots a large hole in the ice where a small white whale is swimming. He silently walks toward the hole, then

48、 stops, standing still. The whale does not see the bear, whose white fur makes him appear invisible (看不見的) against the ice. Finally, the whale swims close to where the bear is waiting. With terrifying speed, the bear comes to life and moves toward the whale. In a moment it is over, and the bear eat

49、s his first meal in nearly a week. Polar bears rule the frozen sea, but their ancestors weren't always built for ice and snow. The first Arctic bears were brown bears, a species that includes grizzly bears. They came to the icy north over a hundred thousand years ago. No one knows for sure why the

50、se bears traveled to such a cold place. Scientists think they might have wandered north looking for food. Maybe they became trapped by glaciers and couldn't leave. Whatever the reason, the bears never should have survived. But they did. They got used to their new environment. Their bodies changed.

51、Their behavior changed, too. Eventually, the bears developed into an entirely new species: the polar bear. You can see some of the characteristics that polar bears developed to survive. Sadly, these characteristics may now threaten the polar bear's survival. As sea ice melts due to global warming,

52、polar bears are frequently forced to come ashore (在岸上). They are poor hunters on land, which means they often go a long time between meals. The polar bear, king of the Arctic, is now classified as a threatened species. Although the future of the polar bear is unknown, the tale of two bears continue

53、s. As temperatures rise, grizzly bears have been spotted moving north into polar bear territory (領(lǐng)地). These long-lost cousins, once forced apart by nature, are coming back together again. 語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。北極熊的祖先為適應(yīng)環(huán)境而不斷改變自身特征，而現(xiàn)在這些特征卻讓北極熊陷入困境。 27．What can be inferred about the white bear mentioned in

54、 the first four paragraphs? A．It is noisy. B．It is smelly. C．It is starving. D．It has good eyesight. 解析：選C　細節(jié)理解題。由第四段最后一句“In a moment it is over, and the bear eats his first meal in nearly a week.”可知，這頭白熊很餓。 28．What do we know about polar bears' ancestors? A．They were a darker-colored species.

55、 B．They were born to live in ice and snow. C．They had no trouble getting used to the icy north. D．They came to the Arctic Ocean about 1,000 years ago. 解析：選A　細節(jié)理解題。由第五段前兩句“Polar bears rule the frozen sea, but their ancestors weren't always built for ice and snow. The first Arctic bears were brown

56、 bears, a species that includes grizzly bears.”可知，北極熊的祖先毛皮顏色更深一些。 29．Why are polar bears struggling to survive? A．They are losing their hunting ground. B．They are threatened by other animals. C．They are spending little time on land. D．They have difficulty reaching the shore. 解析：選A　推理判斷題。由倒數(shù)第二段

57、中的“As sea ice melts due to global warming, polar bears are frequently forced to come ashore (在岸上)．”可知，隨著氣溫上升，北極熊狩獵的海水冰面消失，使得它們的生存面臨威脅。 30．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．The climate change B．The polar bear's favorite meal C．The dark past of the polar bear D．The myst

58、eries of the Arctic Ocean 解析：選C　標題歸納題。文章講到北極熊的祖先毛皮顏色更深，C項中的The dark past既表明了北極熊祖先的外表特征，也暗含它們過去誤入北極的歷史。 第二節(jié)(共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。 You need to dress warmly when you play in the snow. And to get around in deep snow, you might need snowshoes. Animals need winte

59、r coats and snowshoes too. A musk ox (麝牛) wears two coats in winter. __31__ It keeps the inner coat of soft fur warm and dry. The furry undercoat falls off each spring and the ox grows a new one every winter. A snowshoe rabbit changes its coat to match the season. __32__ In winter it grows white f

60、ur to match the snow. It even has fur on the bottoms of its feet. __33__ A seal (海豹) has an extra layer under its fur coat too. This thick layer of fat lies under the seal's skin and is great at holding in heat, especially in the water. The Arctic fox has fur on the bottoms of its feet and one of

61、the warmest double coats of any animal. But on very cold and windy days, it adds something. __34__ A polar bear's big feet act like snowshoes. __35__ The bottom of each foot is protected by fur and the fur helps the bear walk on the snowy ground. A．It can run very quickly. B．Do you wear a sweater

63、the snow. 語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了動物如何抵御寒冷以及在冰天雪地里行走。 31．選D　根據(jù)空后一句“It keeps the inner coat of soft fur warm and dry.”可知，D項“外面的皮毛垂到地面”符合語境。D項中的outer coat與空后一句中的inner coat相呼應(yīng)。 32．選F　根據(jù)該空前的“changes its coat to match the season”和該空后的“In winter it grows white fur to match the snow.”可知，雪兔的皮毛為了和不同的季節(jié)保持協(xié)調(diào)而發(fā)生

64、變化，因此F項介紹雪兔的皮毛在夏天時的情況符合語境。F項中的In summer和空后一句中的In winter形成對比。 33．選B　根據(jù)該空后的“an extra layer under its fur coat too”可知，B項“你在外套里面穿毛衣嗎？”符合語境。B項中的“a sweater under your coat”與空后一句中的“an extra layer under its fur coat”相呼應(yīng)。 34．選E　根據(jù)該空前的“it adds something”可知，北極狐的尾巴還可當作圍巾使用，包裹鼻子和臉。故選E項。 35．選G　根據(jù)該空前的“A polar b

65、ear's big feet act like snowshoes.”可知，G項“北極熊寬大的腳可以分攤自身的重量并且保證它們在雪上輕松行走?！狈险Z境。故選G項。 第三部分：語言運用(共兩節(jié)，滿分45分) 第一節(jié)(共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分) 閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。 My wife and I were hiking deep in the woods with our dog Lucca.
