B．Celebrate.C．Broadcast. D．Prepare.解析：选C词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“AnywaywecangetconnectedthroughtheInternet”可知，Abigail说他们可以通过互联网联系。由此可推知，画线部分的含义与broadcast的含义相近，故选C。3．HowdidAbigailfeelwhenmeetingtheauthor?A．Embarrassed. B．Scared.C．Anxious. D．Overjoyed.解析：选D推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Itwasthebiggestsurprise”及第四段中的“Embraces,kisses,tears,laughs,flowers,wishes”可推知，Abigail见到作者时非常高兴。故选D。4．Whatdoestheauthormainlyintendtoexpressbytellingthestory?A．Themeaningofthefamilybond.B．Afather'sloveforhisfamily.C．Asoldier'spersonalsacrifice.D．Thewaytoplanabigsurprise.解析：选A写作意图题。根据第二段中的“Shesteppedintomanyofmyroles...howproudIwasofher.”可知，作者不在家的时候，Abigail接替了他的许多角色，作者想找个方式来感谢她、让她看到作者是多么为她骄傲；根据第二段最后一句可知，作者为了能参加女儿的毕业典礼，特意申请提前回家；根据第四段可知，作者认为亲密的家庭关系是一个家庭应有的元素。综合以上分析可知，作者在本文主要想传递的信息是家庭关系的意义，故选A。BJustaskanynewparent:Addingababytoahouseholdcanalsoaddstresstoacareer.Now,anewstudybacksthatupwithsomeastonishingnumbers:Afterscience,technology,engineering,andmathematics(STEM)professionalsbecomeparents,43%ofwomenand23%ofmenswitchfields,transition(转变)topart­timework,orleavetheworkforceentirely.ManyresearchersandparentsalreadyknewthatSTEMcanbeunwelcomingtoparents,particularlymothers.“Buttheconsiderabledeparturewasastonishing，”saidErinCech,anassistantprofessorofsociologyattheUniversityofMichiganinAnnArborandleadauthorofthestudy,publishedinProceedingsoftheNationalAcademyofSciences.Forbothgenders,“theproportionswerehigherthanweexpected”．“ThesurprisinglyhighreductionrateformenalsohighlightsthatparenthoodinSTEMisnotjustamother'sissue;it'saworker'sissue，”Cechsaid.Shehopesthatthefindingsmightpromotechanges,suchasmorepaidparentalleavefromboththegovernmentandemployersandpoliciesthatbettersupportflexibleworktimewithoutatightroutine.“WearenotsuggestingthatpeoplewhowantfamiliesshouldavoidSTEM;that'snotthesolution，”sheemphasized.By2018,78%ofnewfatherswerestillworkinginSTEM,andthevastmajorityworkedfull­time.Fornewmothers,68%werestillinSTEM,butonly57%workedfull­time.Forprofessionalswithoutchildren,ontheotherhand,84%ofmenand76%ofwomenwerepredictedtostillbeworkinginSTEMfull­timein2018.Forthenewparentsacrossallfields,16%ofwomenwereworkingpart­timeand15%hadlefttheworkforce,ascomparedwithjust2%and3%,respectively,formen.Thesesharpdifferencesmakeitclearthateventhoughthereductionrateforfathersishigherthanexpected,mothersstillfaceparticularcareerchallenges.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。一项新的研究表明，养育孩子对科学、技术以及工程、数学领域的专业人士的职业有着很大的影响，这些领域的很多专业人士，尤其是女性，因为养育孩子而不再从事本领域的工作。5．WhatmakesmanySTEMemployeeschangetheirjobs?A．Worryingabouttheirfamily.B．Theattractionofpart­timejobs.C．Beingtiredoftheformerjobs.D．Theheavyburdenathomeandwork.解析：选D推理判断题。根据第一段可推知，养育孩子增加了科学、技术以及工程、数学领域的专业人士的压力，由于沉重的家庭压力和工作压力，他们被迫换工作，故D项正确。6．WhichstatementmayErinCechagreewith?A．Workingathomemaybeapopularchoice.B．ImprovingwelfaremaykeepSTEMparentsfromleaving.C．PeoplewithfamiliesshouldleaveSTEM.D．STEMprofessionalsshouldobeytherules.解析：选B推理判断题。根据第一段表述的研究发现科学、技术以及工程、数学领域新生儿父母惊人的职业方面的改变，以及第三段表述的ErinCech希望这些研究结果能促进变革，比如政府和雇主给更长的带薪育儿假，政策更支持弹性工作时间而没有很紧的日程安排可推知，ErinCech可能会同意这样一种说法——提高在科学、技术以及工程、数学领域工作的父母的福利待遇可能能阻止这些父母离开这些领域，故B项正确。7．Howmanynewmothersamongthelaborforceworkedfull­timein2018?A．69%. B．76%.C．57%. D．31%.解析：选A细节理解题。根据最后一段倒数第二句可知，就所有领域的新父母而言，16%的女性从事兼职工作，15%的女性已经离开了工作岗位；据此可知，2018年69%的新生儿母亲从事全职工作，故A项正确。8．Whatdoestheauthorwanttostressbylistingthesharpdifferences?A．ToomanyfathersleaveSTEM.B．It'shardformotherstomakeabalance.C．STEMjobsarenolongerpopular.D．It'simpossibletohaveasuccessfulcareer.解析：选B推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句可推知，作者列举这些明显的差异旨在强调新生儿母亲很难平衡工作和家庭。故B项正确。Ⅱ.语法填空Formanyyoungpeople,__1__(go)touniversityisoneofthemostimportantstagesoftheirlives.Itisthetimewhenyoungpeoplewillmoveoutoftheirhome__2__(live)withotherpeople,oftenstrangers.__3__(especial)intheUS,peopleoftentravelveryfar__4__hometostudy.Itisatimetobe__5__(independence)．Atuniversity,youwill__6__(teach)bylecturesandprofessorswhoareleadingfiguresintheirstudy.Theopportunitytolearnfromandtodiscusswiththemiswhatdrivessomepeople__7__(apply)touniversity.Students__8__(require)tochooseamajorthattheywishtostudy.Apartfromtheacademicbenefit,lifeatuniversityalsocanallowstudents__9__(develop)theirinterestsinmanyfields.Therefore，universityisaplace__10__youattainknowledge,developyourvaluesandacceptthosewhomaybedifferent.语篇解读：对于许多年轻人来说，上大学是他们人生中最重要的阶段之一，是年轻人离开家和其他人一起生活和学习的时期。1．going考查非谓语动词。句意：对于许多年轻人来说，上大学是他们人生中最重要的阶段之一。此处为动名词短语作主语，故用goingtouniversity。2．tolive考查非谓语动词。when引导的定语从句中已有谓语动词willmoveout，再结合句意“年轻人从自己的家中搬出去和其他人(经常是陌生人)一起生活”可知，空处应填非谓语动词tolive。3．Especially考查副词。分析句子结构可知，此处应用副词作状语来修饰整个句子，故填Especially。4．from考查介词。farfrom是固定搭配，意思是“远离……”，故填from。5．independent考查形容词。根据句意和空前的系动词be可知，此处应用形容词作表语表示状态，故填independent。6．betaught考查动词的语态。根据语境可知，主语you与teach之间为被动关系，且空格前有情态动词will，故填betaught。7．toapply考查非谓语动词。what引导的表语从句中已有谓语动词drives，且根据固定搭配drivesb.todosth.“驱使某人做某事”可知，空处应填toapply。8．arerequired考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。主句主语为Students，为复数，句中缺少谓语动词，且此处描述的是客观事情况，再根据Students与require之间为被动关系，故填arerequired。9．todevelop考查非谓语动词。allowsb.todosth.是固定搭配，意思是“允许某人做某事”，故填todevelop。10．where考查定语从句。空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词aplace，空处在从句中作地点状语，故填关系副词where。Ⅲ.应用文写作在你成长过程中一定有一些对你有帮助，对你很重要的人。假定你是李华，请以“Animportantpersoninmylife”为题，用英语写一篇短文给校刊投稿。内容包括：1．对你很重要的人是谁；2．对你很重要的原因；3．你想如何回报他(她)。注意：1.写作词数应为80左右；2．文章的标题和开头已给
