参考答案：16-20BACDC21-25ADABC26-30DAABB31-35DCBCD本文通过父亲戒酒成功这件事，说明了世上无难事，只要意志坚定的道理。16.父亲戒酒近二十年了。他是怎么做到的呢？二十年后我才有勇气（courage）去问他这个问题。17.当初父亲戒酒时，全家人都担心他有朝一日会反复。takeup意为"开始做某事"，逻辑不对。18.每当父亲可能继续酗酒时，大家都如坐针毡似的（beonpinsandneedles）。getintoasituation陷入一种处境。19.startsb.doingsth.使某人开始干某事。20.有好几年我们不敢（beafraidto）提起这个话题，担心父亲重新酗酒。21.此处填reply与下文的question相呼应。22.原来，父亲戒酒成功的秘诀在于每天反复背诵这首诗来提醒自己。reminder提醒物。23.从来没有（never）什么事情如此困难以致于做不到（这里指决心戒酒一事），关键在于意志是否坚定。24-25.父亲与我分享（shared）这首诗，这首诗语言浅显（simple）但寓意深刻，发人深省。它也成为了我日常生活中不可或缺的一部分（part）。28.这份礼物是关于名言警句的一本书。这本书为一年中的每一天都列出了（listed）警言。30.下文There,onmybirthday,wastheexactsamepoem说明作者迫切地想知道自己生日那天会有什么样的提醒。31.hurriedly（匆忙地）一词能够恰如其分地描绘出作者当时的心情。32.what引导宾语从句。我急于知道什么样的生日提醒在等待着我。instore表示"贮藏着，准备着"。33.我翻到11月10日那一页时，首先是非常惊奇（astonished），然后不相信和感激的泪水夺眶而出。34.rolldown滚落下来。35.这首诗"帮助"我父亲戒掉了酒，走过了这么多年。这也注定要使我受益匪浅。三、阅读理解18.Reducingplasticwasteisn'teasybecausethecheapmaterialisfoundinalmosteveryhouseholditem.Now,adeliciousandnutritioussolutionhascomeuptohelpreduceourdependenceonthisenvironmentalhazard.DavidChristian,theco-founderofEvoware,saystheideaofcreatingthebiodegradable(生物降解的)productscamefromconcernatthecountry'shighpollutionrate.Indonesiaishometofouroftheworld'sworstpollutedrivers.Sincesingle-usepackagingisalargecontributortotheproblem,Evowaredecidedtodealwiththatfirst.Afterinvestigatingvariousmaterials,thecompanysettledonseaweed.Unlikecorn,commonlyusedforbiodegradablecontainers,seaweeddoesnotrequireresourceslikewaterorlargeamountsofspace.SinceIndonesianfarmersalreadyharvestmoreseaweedthantheycansell,it'seasyforthecompanytofindthematerial.Thoughtheywillnotrevealtheirproductionprocess,Evowaresaystheseaweedpackagingcontainsnochemicalsandissafetoconsume.Thecompanyhasalsoinventedsingle-usecups,whichcanbreakdown30daysafterthey'rethrownaway.Whilereplacingplasticwiththeseaweedproductsmayseemappealingtomostofus,itisahard-sellinIndonesia.AccordingtoChristian,“Theawarenesstoreducesingle-useplasticisstillverylow.Thismakesourbioplasticunnecessary.”Alsoafactoristhecost,whichishigherthanusingplastic.Hopefully,EvowarewillsucceedinconvincingIndonesiansandpeopleworldwidethatswitchingtotheirproductswillbehelpfultoprotectingourbeautifulplanet.8.WhatproblemdidEvowaredecidetodealwithfirst?A.Waystocleanthefourworstpollutedrivers.B.Howtodealwithsingle-usepackaging.C.Meanstocontributetothecountry'seconomy.D.Whatnutritiousmaterialsforpeopletouse.9.WhydidEvowarechooseseaweed?A.Itcouldbefoundeverywhereinhiscountry.B.Itwasmostcommonlyusedforpackaging.C.Itdidn'trequiremuchspaceandwaseasytoget.D.Itgrewthicklyinmostofthepollutedrivers.10.WhatcanweinferfromChristian'swords?A.Sometimesit'shardtogetpeopletoreducetheuseofplastics.B.Theirseaweedproductshavewongovernmentsupport.C.Theirnewproductshavereceivedworldwidepopularity.D.Thecostofmakingseaweedproductswillbeloweredsoon.11.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“hard-sell”(inPara.5)referto?A.Somethinglastinglong.

D.Somethinghardtoaccept.参考答案：8.B

9.C

10.A

11.D这是一篇说明文。文章讲了塑料制品污染环境，科学家们研发了一种营养又美味的替代品，用海藻产品取代塑料制品。【8题详解】细节理解题。答案定位在第二段Sincesingle-usepackagingisalargecontributortotheproblem,Evowaredecidedtodealwiththatfirst.可知Evoware决定首先处理一次性的包装，故选B。【9题详解】细节理解题。答案定位在第三段Unlikecorn,commonlyusedforbiodegradablecontainers,seaweeddoesnotrequireresourceslikewaterorlargeamountsofspace.可知Evoware选择海藻是因为海藻不需要很大的空间，并且容易获得，故选C。【10题详解】推理判断题。答案定位在最后一段AccordingtoChristian,“Theawarenesstoreducesingle-useplasticisstillverylow.Thismakesourbioplasticunnecessary.”（据Christian说，“减少一次性塑料使用的意识仍然很低。这使得我们的生物塑料不必要。）由此推断出Christian的话暗示出有时很难让人们减少塑料的使用，故选A。【11题详解】词义猜测题。根据最后一段AccordingtoChristian,“Theawarenesstoreducesingle-useplasticisstillverylow.Thismakesourbioplasticunnecessary.”可知Whilereplacingplasticwiththeseaweedproductsmayseemappealingtomostofus,itisahard-sellinIndonesia.的意思是虽然用海草产品替代塑料似乎对我们大多数人都有吸引力，但在印尼却很难卖出去。“hard-sell”意思是“很难接受的东西”，故选D。19.补全短文（每小题2分，共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.
