The British have many traditions but there is nothing more quintessential (典型的) than taking afternoon tea. We know the British have a love affair with drinking tea, 【1】 more than 160 million cups drunk every day, but it was the invention of afternoon tea that turned tea-drinking into 【2】 popular pastime.

This sociable feast involves drinking good quality tea 【3】 (comfort) while nibbling (小口吃) on nice sandwiches, scones with jam and cream and a selection of small cakes. And, of course, it can only happen in the afternoon! Afternoon tea, 【4】 (design) as a light snack to bridge the gap between lunch and dinner, dates back to the 1840s. It went on to become a 【5】 (fashion) social occasion for the upper classes.

Now there is a resurgence (復蘇) in its 【6】 (popular) in the UK and it is available to anyone who can afford it. 【7】 it can be enjoyed at home, the best way to experience it is at a smart hotel of café. But if you’re thinking of visiting such a place 【8】 (enjoy) a plate of sweet and tasty treats with a steaming hot brew, remember the rules you must follow to avoid 【9】 (ask) to leave.

Writer Henry James once noted that “there are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour devoted to the ceremony known as afternoon tea”. I’m sure once you try it, you 【10】(agree).

【解析】

本文是一篇說明文。文章主要向讀者介紹了英式下午茶。

【1】考查with的復合結(jié)構(gòu)。本題考查with + 名詞 + 過去分詞。句意：我們都知道英國人愛喝茶，他們每天要喝掉1.6億多杯茶。故填with。

【2】考查冠詞。單數(shù)可數(shù)名詞前用不定冠詞表泛指。句意：不過，下午茶的發(fā)明才真正將品茶變成了一項受歡迎的休閑活動。故填a。

【3】考查副詞。修飾整個句子用副詞形式。句意：這種社交活動包括：舒服地飲用質(zhì)量上好的茶……。故填comfortably。

【4】考查非謂語動詞。邏輯主語Afternoon tea與動詞design為被動關(guān)系，故用過去分詞作狀語。句意：下午茶是為了填補午餐和晚餐之間的空當而出現(xiàn)的輕便小食。故填designed。

【5】考查形容詞。冠詞后、名詞前用形容詞作定語。句意：之后，下午茶的習慣逐漸成為上流社會時髦的社交活動。故填fashionable。

【6】考查名詞。代詞its后接名詞形式。句意：如今下午茶的風潮又在英國興起。故填popularity。

【7】考查連詞。根據(jù)前后句邏輯關(guān)系可知，這里引導讓步狀語從句。句意：盡管在家里可以享用，但體驗下午茶的最佳方式是去豪華酒店或者咖啡館。故填Though / Although/While。

【8】考查非謂語動詞。這里用不定式作目的狀語。句意：如果你想去這樣的地方去品嘗甜品和美味小食，再飲一壺剛泡好的熱茶。故填to enjoy。

【9】考查非謂語動詞。動詞avoid后接doing作賓語。邏輯主語you與ask之間為被動關(guān)系，故用被動語態(tài)。句意：有些規(guī)矩是必須遵守的，否則人家可能會請你離開。故填being asked。

【10】考查時態(tài)。主句將來時，時間狀語從句用一般現(xiàn)在時或現(xiàn)在完成時表將來。句意：我確信一旦你試過，你就會同意。故填will agree。

【題目】Part drama, part dark comedy, new film To the Bone talks about a young woman’s struggle with anorexia(厭食癥). Though the film already got generally positive reviews at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, it has caused a hot Twitter debate around whether it could be harmful for those with eating disorders.

Critics of the film have focused on the leading role Ellen: a young, thin, white woman with anorexia. They think there’re some plots that have made eating disorders look like trends instead of life-threatening illnesses. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, anorexia has the highest mortality rate (死亡率) of any mental illness. Thirty million Americans struggle with eating disorders at some point in their lives.

Director Marti Noxon based the film on her own battle with anorexia. She was aware of the film’s potential to trigger harmful effects and then tried to be really careful in the way she showed how Ellen looked. “You want to help other people understand something that they’ve never experienced, but you also want people who have experienced it to feel understood and seen and to give people hope,” she added. “We were balancing a lot. I want to avoid the idea that the perfectionist quality of anorexics is their most obvious character.”

The film caught the attention of Liana Rosenman, who founded Project Heal, an organization that helps eating disorder sufferers afford treatment. “I thought it was very powerful,” Rosenman said. “There is a sense of humor and wittiness in it as well as just understanding what it’s like to have an eating disorder.” Project Heal recently played To the Bone in New York and Los Angeles, but it has faced sharp criticism from members of their community on social media.

【1】What do we know about the film To the Bone from Paragraph 1?

A. It tells the growth story about a girl.

B. It has received mixed comments.

C. It is popular among young people.

D. Twitter users have no interest in it.

【2】What do Noxon’s words suggest?

A. She admitted the film is harmful to people.

B. She tried hard to make the film benefit people.

C. All those suffering from anorexia want to be perfect.

D. People who haven’t experienced anorexia can’t understand it.

【3】What’s Rosenman’s attitude towards the film?

A. Supportive B. Negative

C. Uncertain D. Unconcerned

【4】Where’s the passage probably from?

A. Medical magazine.

B. Healthy Life Style magazine.

C. A film review.

D. A newspaper report.

【題目】 City trees grow faster and die younger than trees in rural forestry, a new study finds. Over their lifetimes,then, urban trees will likely absorb less CO2 from the air thah forest trees.

As we all know, the earth would be freezing or burning hot without C02. However, CO2 is a greenhouse gas, meaning it traps energy from the sun as/heat. That makes temperatures near the ground rise. Human activities, especially the widespread burning-of fossil(化石）fuels，have been sending extra greenhouse gases into the air. This has led to a rise in average temperatures across the globe.

Studies had shown forests readily absorb C02，but there hadn’t been much data on whether city trees grow， die and absorb CO2 at the same rate as forest trees do. So some researchers decided to find out.

To figure out how quickly trees were growing, researchers tracked their diameters (the width of their trunks) between 2005 and 2014. A tree’s diameter increases as it grows, just as a person’s waist size increases as they gain weight. About half the weight of a tree is carbon, research has shown. Most of the rest is water. Over the nine years’ tracking, the researchers found city trees absorbed four times as much carbon from the air as forest trees. However, they were twice as likely to die. So over the lifetime of each type of tree, forest trees actually absorbed more C02.

City trees grew faster because they had less competition for light from their neighbors. In a forest，trees tend to grow close together，shading their neighbors. Street trees also benefit from higher levels of nitrogen (氮）in rainwater. Nitrogen helps plants grow. Waste gases from gas-burning cars also contain nitrogen, thus enriching city air with nitrogen. Later, rainwater may wash much of it to the ground. Some street trees may also have better access to water than trees in the country because the underground water pipes can leak.

【1】What can he known about CO2 from paragraph 2?

A.It is one of the side effects of greenhouses.

B.It greatly accelerates the process of global warming.

C.It results from the widespread burning of fossil fuels.

D.It prevents the earth from becoming unsuitable to live on.

【2】Why did researchers track the diameters of trees?

A.To know about their growth rates.

B.To find out how much they weigh.

C.To check whether they were healthy.

D.To assess the carbon amounts in them.

【3】What advantage do city trees have over forest trees?

A.They are more likely to access growth promoters.

B.They can enjoy more water coming from the air.

C.They can enjoy more shade from neighbors.

D.They are better at competing for light.

【4】What will probably be talked about if the passage is continued?

A.How urban trees can live longer.

B.Why city living makes trees die young.

C.How trees respond to dry soil conditions.

D.Why faster-growing trees absorb more C02.

【題目】Recently I went to the Tsavo National Park in northern Kenya for a film. We set off early for a distant water hole. A huge elephant, covered with dry mud, drank calmly and deeply. He might have traveled 50 km to reach the water. He wasnt going to hurry now. Hed drink a while and then rest in the shade, and then drink again—or so we thought. What actually happened was that he drank deeply and stepped away. Then he suddenly fell down. Within minutes he was dead.

We called animal doctor Jeremiah Poghon immediately. He removed the head of a poisoned arrow from the elephants body, and let out over 100 litters of pus(膿)—the result of the elephants meeting with a poacher(偷獵者) months before.

Todays poacher shoots from a blind. He fires an arrow, covered with poison, into the body of an elephant. If the poacher is lucky, the elephant might die in an hour or two; if not, he might have to follow the elephant for days before it dies. Often the arrow head fails to kill the elephant at once—it doesnt mean the poison wont finally kill the elephant, but it will be a slow death. Living in Tsavo through these times, I could see the results of poaching from time to time.

When I think about the death of that elephant, what stays with me is the extraordinary silence after the shocking sound of his body hitting the ground. I took some comfort from the knowledge that as the dead body returned to the soil, some animals would benefit—but I couldnt escape the feeling that with the death of such a large animal, the world seemed a poorer and emptier place.

【1】While filming near the water hole, the author and his team ________.

A. knew the elephant was injured

B. found the elephant acted violently

C. thought the elephant was in good condition

D. tried their best to save the elephant

【2】Further examination showed that the dead elephant ________.

A. had wounds all over it

B. had suffered a lot

C. had drunk some deadly water

D. had had a good fight with a poacher

【3】Further examination showed that the dead elephant ________.

A. Embarrassed.

B. Funny

C. Relieved

D. Upset

【4】Why did the author write the text?

A. To introduce African elephant.

B. To ask readers to protect wild animals.

C. To describe his filming experience.

D. To show the cruelty of poaching.
