D.BeingraisedbyInstagramfans.【答案】4.B5.C6.B7.A【解析】这是一篇新闻报道。Nala是一只猫咪，在被Miranda收养后在网络上走红。【4题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段第三句中的“WemadeeyecontactandIcouldn'tresist（抗拒）herbigblueeyes.”（我们眼神接触，我无法抗拒它蓝色的大眼睛。）和最后一句“Andthatwaswhensheknewshehadtotakethiskittyhome.”（就在那时，她知道她必须把这只小猫带回家。）可知，第一段主要是讲Miranda第一次见到Nala时就喜欢上了这只小猫并把它带回了家。所以第一段主要是讲与一只猫咪的一见钟情。故选B。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“IstartedNala’sInstagramaccountin2012asawaytosharephotoswithmyclosefriendsandfamilyinThailand”（2012年，我开通了Nala的Instagram账号，以便与我在泰国的亲密朋友和家人分享照片）可知，Miranda开通了Nala的Instagram账号是为了分享Nala的照片。故选C。【6题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Thistookusbysurprisebecausewecouldn’tbelievethatabigbrandwantedtopaythemtotakephotoswiththeirproductsnexttoNala.”（这让我们很惊讶，因为我们不敢相信一个大品牌愿意付钱让他们在Nala旁边给他们的产品拍照。）可知，Miranda对Nala的走红感到惊奇。故选B。【7题详解】词句猜测题。根据倒第二段第一句“Nalastartedlifeoutinashelter,justwaitingtobelovedlikemanyotheranimalsthatwereabandoned.”（Nala在收容所开始了自己的生活，就像许多其他被遗弃的动物一样，等待着被爱。）可知，那个梦是指像它的同类一样受到善待。故选A。CSusanhadalwayslovedmakingclothes,spendingherteenageyearsfashioningVoguePatternstoweartoparties.However,lifegotinthewayoftakingherfashiondreamsanyfurther.Susanworkedasanystafffromawaitresstoacookinanoldpeople’shome,beforegettingajobatacharity.“Forsomereason,thecharityhadtoreducemydays.IthoughtI’dusetheopportunitytotakeupanAlevelonmyextradayoff,andofcourseIchosetextile,”shesaid.“Atlast,IknewwhatIwantedtodowithmyself;Iwantedtobecreative.”Attheageof61,Susanquitherjobtofollowherpassion.“Ilovedlearningallthedifferenttechniqueslikequilting,batik(蜡染),patternmaking,”shesaid.“IfeltIwasinmyelement,andgettingmyhandsdirtywithbleach(漂白剂)anddyes;I’dneverfelthappier.”AfteranopendayattheUniversityofNorthampton,shesigneduptogetadegreeinfashion.Susanwasahitatuniversity,andtheteacherswereimpressedwithherdesigns,whichshedescribedasfemale.BeingpickedfortheGraduateFashionWeekshowwasthecherryonthecake.Shesaid,“ItwasanunbelievableexperienceandIlovedeveryminuteoftheshow.It’sgivenmeatasteofwhatIwanttodonext,andthat’stoworkinthefashionindustry.”Toanyoneelsewhohasadreamthey’veneverhadthechancetoplete,shehasanimportantmessage.“Iwanttotellpeopletojusthaveago,”shesaid.“Onestepatatime,thejourneyof1,000milesstartswithonestep.Dowhatyoucanwithwhatyou’vegotanddon’tletagebeabarrier.I’msogladIdidthecourse—it’sgivenmeanewlessonoflifeandshowsyoucanreallydoanything.”8.WhenSusanwasyoung,she_______.A.determinedtobeeadesigner B.knewnothingaboutfashionC.likedtodesignclothesverymuch D.dreamedtoworkatacharity9.Whatdoestheunderlinedsentencemean?A.Imadeabigdecisioninlife.

D.Astepisthebeginningofajourney.【答案】8.C9.D10.A11.B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Susan以前是一个穿着最新时装的女孩，她从十几岁起就热衷于做衣服。然而，生活阻碍了她的时尚梦想的进一步发展，为了熬过艰难的日子，从事了与时尚无关的各种工作。但是61岁时，她放弃了工作，升入了一所大学，后来大学毕业创立了自己的事业。文章告诉我们对任何一个有梦想的同龄人来说，他们应该有勇气，一步一个脚印，尽你所能，不要让年龄成为阻碍。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Susanhadalwayslovedmakingclothes,spendingherteenageyearsfashioningVoguePatternstoweartoparties.(苏珊一直喜欢做衣服，在十几岁的时候，她一直在为参加聚会而设计时尚衣服。)”可知，苏珊年轻的时候非常喜欢设计时尚的衣服。故选C。【9题详解】句意猜测题。根据文章第三段““Ilovedlearningallthedifferenttechniqueslikequilting,batik(蜡染),patternmaking,”shesaid.“IfeltIwasinmyelement,andgettingmyhandsdirtywithbleach(漂白剂)anddyes;I’dneverfelthappier.”(她说：“我喜欢学习蜡染、图案制作等所有不同的技术，我觉得Iwasinmyelement，用漂白剂和染料弄脏我的手，我感到非常的快乐。”)”可知，苏珊是非常喜欢设计和制作衣服，划线句意为：我做了自己擅长的事。故选D。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Susanwasahitatuniversity,andtheteacherswereimpressedwithherdesigns,whichshedescribedasfemale.(苏珊在大学里很受欢迎，老师们对她的设计印象深刻，她说她的设计是女性的)”可知，苏珊的设计都是和女性有关的。故选A。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Toanyoneelsewhohasadreamthey’veneverhadthechancetoplete,shehasanimportantmessage.“Iwanttotellpeopletojusthaveago,”shesaid.“Onestepatatime,thejourneyof1,000milesstartswithonestep.Dowhatyoucanwithwhatyou’vegotanddon’tletagebeabarrier.I’msogladIdidthecourse—it’sgivenmeanewlessonoflifeandshowsyoucanreallydoanything.”(对于那些有着梦想，且从未放弃梦想的人来说,她有一个重要的信息：“我想告诉人们，只要一步一个脚印，1000英里的旅程就要从一步开始。尽你所能，不要让年龄成为障碍。我很高兴我做到了——它给我展示了新的生活。”)”可知，我们从苏珊的故事了解到只要有梦想就要去追求，千万不要放弃梦想。故选B。DAnewdevice(设备)calledOrionishelpingthosewhoareblindtosee.Itdoesthisinanewwaybyhelpingthemexperiencetheworldaroundthem.JasonEsterhuizenlosthiseyesightafteracaraccident.Heneverthoughthewouldbeabletoseelightormovementagain.Butnowwiththemovementofaswitch(开关),hisworldsuddenlygrewbrighter.Hesays,“Istillcan’tputitintowords.Imeanfrombeingabletoseeabsolutelynothing,it’spletelyblack,toallofasuddenseeinglittleflickers(闪烁)oflightmovearound.”Itisnotfullornormalsight,butEsterhuizencanmoveaboutintheworldaroundhim.Thenewtechnologyusesseveralparts.Oneisasmalldeviceplacedinthebrain.Theotherpartsareavideocameraonsunglassesandaprocessingdevicethatcanbecarriedinaperson’sclothes.Whentheuserpointsthecamera,asignalgoestotheprocessor(处理器)andthenbacktotheglasses.Theglassesthenareinwirelessmunicationwiththedeviceinthebrain.Theinformationcausesapatterntodevelopinthepartofthebrain.Thepatternhelpsuserssenseorseemovementandshapesoflight.Anditallhappensinseconds.EsterhuizenisoneofjusttwopeopleintheU.S.testingthistechnology.Hesaysthat“Icantellsomeonemovingacrosstheroom,walkingpastmeorwalkingawayfromme,orit’salightagainstthewall.Itisjustamazingtohavesomeformoffunctionalvisionagain.”Headdsthatnowhecandoeverydayactivitiesaroundhishomethatheoncecouldnot.Itiseasiertowalkoutside.Theresearchersbelievethatonedaythistechnologycouldhelppeoplewhohavelosttheirvisionbecauseofillnesseslikediabetes.Itmayalsohelpthosewithpoorvisionorwhowerebornblind.12.WhichofthefollowingcausedEsterhuizentogoblind?A.Anillness.

can’t”，而后面的句子“Herearethegoodhabitsofhappypeople.”是肯定句。说明所填的句子应是转折句，才能起到承前启后的作用，将两个句子衔接起来。因此选项E“Butyoucanstartagoodmorningoverwithanewattitude.”中的连词“but”可以起到很好的语境衔接作用。且符合句意主旨。因此第1小题答案为E项。第三部分语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Oneday,Phosphorus(启明星)feltsad.Shefeltshewasverysmallandordinarywhileotherstarsintheskywere___21___andbrighter.Shesatinthenightsky,crying.“Whyareyouso___22___?”theMooncameandaskedheronenight.“Iamtoosmall,”shecried,“WhywasIbornlikethis?Almostnoone___23___me.”TheMoonsaidtoher,“Notreally.Sometimesbeingbiggerdoesn’tmeanbeingbetter.”Butthisdidn’t___24___,andPhosphoruswasstillnothappyallthetime.Seeingthis,theNorthStarcametoherandaskedforthe___25___.Itwasthesamequestionandthesame___26___andPhosphoruswasstillinthesamesituation.ThentheSunknewthisanddecidedto___27___her.Shestaredather,saying,“Hey,itis___28___thatIamthebiggestandbrighteststarinthesky.Butyouarealsoimportanttotheskybecauseyouareverybeautiful.IamsobigandbrightthatI___29___people’seyes.Ontheotherhand,youcanbegazed(凝视)upontoadmireyour____30____.Youtellthe____31____ofanewdaytotheworld.Noonecan____32____you.”Thistime,Phosphorusthoughtandthought.Suddenly,shedidn’tfeelherself____33____andbegantounderstandhervalue.Shetwinkled____34____inthenightsky.Dearfriends,justlikePhosphorus,mostofusarelittlestars,butweshouldfinda(n)____35____forourselves.21.A.smaller
