A
Jim Thorpe is one of the greatest athletes of all time. He had amazing athletic abilities and was well-known

during his lifetime, yet that did not make Thorpe a stranger to adversity.

Thorpe was an American Indian from Oklahoma who developed his extraordinary athletic skills in his youth

through hard labor. It was also in his youth that he learned to endure hardship brought upon by racial prejudice.

Many would say his childhood was not easy. He grew up poor and at age 9, his twin brother passed away and a few

years later he lost both of his parents.

But that did not stop him from doing what he loved and pursuing his dreams. Nothing seemed to stop him, not

even stolen shoes. Just hours before Thorpe was going to compete in the 1912 Olympics, somebody stole his shoes.

Thorpe improvised by getting shoes out of the garbage. The shoes were two different sizes. He wore an extra pair

of socks on one foot to even them out.

He still went on to win two gold medals — winning each event he competed in except for one, the javelin (标

枪).The javelin was the only event he didn’t win, probably because he had never competed in that event before. It is

interesting to note that Thorpe had tried to throw the javelin once before in the Olympic trials. At the time, he didn’t

know that he could throw it with a running start He threw it standing still and was placed second.

At the Olympics, he also took part in the decathlon (十项全能运动). He finished first in two events, third in

four events, and fourth in two more. Thorpe ended up finishing third in the world. He was undoubtedly a

dominating force that couldn’t be stopped and just kept on going.

I think Paul Dughi said it best, “It’s hard to imagine now that pro athletes get paid millions of dollars just to

wear a particular brand of shoes. For Jim Thorpe, it didn’t matter what kind he wore.”

1. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean?

A. The adversity Thorpe met with led to his success.

第 3 页/共 24 页

B. Thorpe’s success was no guarantee of a better life.

C. Thorpe’s career brought him both gains and losses.

D. Thorpe suffered many hardships despite his success.

2. Why did Thorpe wear more socks on one foot?

A. To prevent the toot from injury. B. To make the shoe fit the foot.

C. To stop the shoe from being stolen. D. To show his problem-solving skills.

3. Which of the following words can best describe Jim Thorpe?

A. Loyal and enthusiastic. B. Genuine and creative.

C. Tough and strong-minded. D. Selfless and good-tempered.

【答案】1. D 2. B 3. C

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了美国印第安人吉姆·索普坎坷的人生经历和他作为运动员所取得

的骄人成绩。

【1 题详解】

词句猜测题。根据第二段“Thorpe was an American Indian from Oklahoma who developed his extraordinary

athletic skills in his youth through hard labor. It was also in his youth that he learned to endure hardship brought

upon by racial prejudice. Many would say his childhood was not easy. He grew up poor and at age 9 his twin

brother passed away and a few years later he lost both of his parents.(索普是来自俄克拉荷马州的美洲印第安人，

他在年轻时通过艰苦劳动发展了非凡的运动技能。也正是在他年轻的时候，他学会了忍受种族偏见带来的

苦难。许多人会说他的童年并不容易。他出身贫寒，9 岁时双胞胎兄弟去世，几年后他失去了双亲)”可知,

吉姆·索普经历了很多苦难，幼年时双胞胎兄弟过世，随后父母双亡，青年时又困扰于种族偏见带来的磨

难：根据划线句前面的 yet 表转折意义可知，划线部分的意思是“虽然索普后来有所成就，但却经历了很

多苦难”。故选 D。

【2 题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段的“The shoes were two different sizes. He wore an extra pair of socks on one foot to

even them out.(鞋子有两个不同的尺寸，他一只脚上多穿了一双袜子来平衡)可知，两只鞋大小不一，因此

索普多穿袜子就是为了让鞋合脚。故选 B。

【3 题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段的叙述可知，吉姆·索普成长过程中经历过很多苦难，这很大程度上塑造了他坚

韧不拔的性格。第三段的“But that did not stop him from doing what he loved and pursuing his dreams. Nothing

seemed to stop him, not even stolen shoes.(但这并没有阻止他去做他喜欢的事情，去追求他的梦想。似乎没有

第 4 页/共 24 页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司
什么能阻止他，甚至是偷来的鞋子)”正是对他坚韧不拔性格的刻画。由此可知，tough(坚韧的)和 strong-

minded(意志坚定的)是对他最准确的描述。故选 C。

B
It isn’t just the beauty of vast natural wonders like the Grand Canyon that can take your breath away. You can

find awe in everyday things. A new research, published in the journal Emotion, found that older adults who took

“awe walks” felt more positive emotions in their daily lives.

In the study, 52 older adults aged 60 to 90 were divided randomly into two groups. They were told to take at

least one 15-minute walk each week for eight weeks. Volunteers in the “awe group” were instructed in how to

inspire awe as they walked. “We asked them to try to see the world with fresh eyes—to take in new details of a leaf

or flower, for example,” Sturm says. For example, one participant from the awe group wrote about “the beautiful

fall colors and how the leaves were no longer crunchy(嘎吱响) underfoot because of the rain”—the wonder that

small children feel as they embrace their expanding world. However, people in the other group were less focused

on the world around them. One participant wrote, “I thought about our vacation in Hawaii next Thursday.”

In addition, participants were asked to take selfies(自拍) in the beginning, middle, and end of each walk.

Researchers found that participants who took awe walks showed a “small self”, in that they filled less of their

photographs with their own image and more with the background scenery. “When we feel awe, our attention shifts

from focusing on ourselves to focusing on the world around us, ” Sturm says. “ Awe affects our social relationships

because it helps us to feel more connected with the world, universe, and other people.”Their smiles also grew

broader by the end of the study. “We analyzed the intensity of their smiles in the selfies, and participants who took

awe walks displayed greater smiles over time than those who took control walks. The former reported greater

positive emotions in general, including more joy and gratitude.”

Participants in the control group took more frequent walks than those people in the awe group, the researchers

discovered. But walking more didn’t result in positive changes in emotional health or in the way their selfies were

taken. This suggests that the results were mainly due to experiencing awe, and not just in spending time exercising.

4. What were participants in the “awe group” required to do in Paragraph 2?

A. To take a walk each week.

B. To focus on their inner world.

C. To collect leaves after the rain.

D. To explore with childlike curiosity.

5. What can we see in the selfies from the awe walks?

A. Close-up images with wide smiles.

第 5 页/共 24 页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司
B. More attention on themselves.

C. Simply the background scenery.

D. Small figures with bigger smiles.

6. What can we know from the last paragraph?

A. Experiencing awe counts.

B. More walks, more joy.

C. Exercises can benefit us.

D. Awe comes with walking.

7. Which of the following can be the best title?

A. Awe Walks Promote Your Physical Fitness

B. Experiencing Awe Does Wonders for Everyone

C. Awe Walks Improve Your Positive Emotions

D. Frequent Walks Contribute to Emotional Health

【答案】4. D 5. D 6. A 7. C

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍一项有关 awe walk(敬畏步行)的研究，研究表明怀敬畏之心行路有利于产

生积极的情绪。

【4 题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段的第五句“For example, one participant from the awe group wrote about “the beautiful

fall colors and how the leaves were no longer crunchy(嘎吱响)underfoot because of the rain”—the wonder that

small children feel as they embrace their expanding world. (比如，敬畏步行组的一名参与者描写了“秋天美丽

的颜色，下雨后,脚下的树叶不再被踩得嘎吱响。”——这种惊奇像孩子们拥抱他们不断延伸的世界时所

感受到的那样。)”可知，研究人员要求敬畏步行组怀着孩子般的好奇心探索路程。故选 D 项。

【5 题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段的第二句“Researchers found that participants who took awe walks showed a ‘small

self , in that they filled less of their photographs with their own image and more with the background scenery.( 研究

人员发现，敬畏地散步的参与者表现出一种“小我”，因为他们用自己的图像填充的照片较少，而更多地

用背景风景填充。)”和倒数第三句“Their smiles also grew broader by the end of the study.(研究结束时，他

们的笑容也变得更加灿烂。)”可知，敬畏步行组的自拍照中，自己的身体只占一小部分，而且面带灿烂的

微笑。所以他们的自拍照中，可能显示的是小身形，但是面带灿烂微笑。故选 D 项。

【6 题详解】

第 6 页/共 24 页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司
推理判断题。最后一段的最后两句“But walking more didn’t result in positive changes in emotional health or in

the way their selfies were taken. This suggests that the results were mainly due to experiencing awe, and not just in

spending time exercising.(但是多走路并不会对情绪健康或者自拍方式产生积极的影响。这表明，结果主要

是由于体验敬畏，而不只是在花时间锻炼。)”提到积极健康情绪产生于心怀敬畏，而非只是简单地花时间

锻炼。由此可知，作者在最后一段想传达的是，心怀敬畏才是真正产生影响的。故选 A 项。

【7 题详解】

主旨大意题。结合全文，文章主要介绍一项有关 awe walk(敬畏步行)的研究，尤其是根据第一段的“A new

research published in the journal Emotion, found that older adults who took ‘ awe walks’felt more positiveemotions

in their daily lives.(发表在《情感》杂志上的一项新研究发现，那些“敬畏步行”的老年人在日常生活中感

受到更多的积极情绪。)”和最后一段“Participants in the control group took more frequent walks than those

people in the awe group, the researchers discovered. But walking more didn’t result in positive change: in

emotional health or in the way their selfies were taken. This suggests that the results were mainly due to

experiencing awe, and not just in spending time exercising.(研究人员发现，控制组的参与者比敬畏组的参与者

更频繁地散步。但是多走路并不会对情绪健康或者自拍方式产生积极的影响。这表明，结果主要是由于体

验敬畏，而不只是在花时间锻炼。)”可知，敬畏步行有利于促进积极健康情绪。所以 C 项“敬畏步行能促

进积极的情绪”最适合作为本文标题。故选 C 项。

C
Can you imagine someone hunting you down with a gun? Most of us would be terrified. So, it’s no surprise

that that’s how animals respond, too.

Orcas, a species that have been systematically hunted- even with machine guns-dramatically decreased in

number in the twentieth century. These so-called “killer whales” hunted the same fish that fishermen prized and

were therefore seen as competition. Consequently, killer whales began avoiding certain locations and routes. But

while North America largely banned their killing in the 1970s, they continue to be hunted in Greenland to this day.

Elephants also have to deal with human hunters. Ivory poachers( 象牙偷猎者)have greatly reduced the African

elephant population, which used to cover the entire continent. The ivory trade was banned in 1990, but animal

habitats and food supplies have still declined. In Kenya, the human population has increased four times over the

last 40 years while the elephant population declined by four-fifths.

This has caused the elephants to adopt unique responses to people. For instance, elephants are terrified of the

spear-waving Maasai, an ethnic group of Kenya and Tanzania who have often hurt elephants when trying to protect

their own cattle.

So once in an experiment by a group of zoologists, when elephants living close to the Maasai were presented

第 7 页/共 24 页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司
with three different T-shirts, one belonging to a Maasai, another to a different local and one to a researcher, they

only reacted with fear to the Maasai shirt, literally smelling the danger.

However, neither elephants nor killer whales commonly show anger and hate for people. In fact, elephants are

generally friendly to humans. And the only instances of killer whales harming a person occurred when the whales

were kept in a water cage. Orcas have even been reported to aid humans in need, protecting them from other

animals.

8. Why are killer whales often hunted?

A. They are hugely profitable.

B. They harm people’s interests.

C. They threaten fishermen’s safety.

D. They compete with other wildlife for food.

9. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 4 refer to?

A. Less illegal ivory trade.

B. The decline of food supplies.

C. Elephants’ traveling to other continents.

D. The population change of humans and elephants.

10. Why is the experiment mentioned?

A. To prove humans’ influence on animals.

B. To show the defensive nature of the Maasai.

C. To illustrate the cleverness of the wild animals.

D. To highlight the urgency of animal conservation.

11. What’s the best title of this text?

A. Fierce Animals Can Feel Frightened Too

B. Animal Kingdoms Are Sounding an Alarm

C. Animals Are Trying to Fit in Human World

D. Human Actions Have Shaped Animal Consciousness

【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. D

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要是说人类对动物的行为已经影响了动物对人类的感知。

【8 题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“These so-called ‘killer whales’ hunted the same fish that fishermen prized and

were therefore seen as competition.(这些所谓的‘虎鲸’捕食的是渔民们珍视的同种鱼类，因此被视为竞争

第 8 页/共 24 页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司
对手)”可知，因为虎鲸捕食的是渔民们珍视的同种鱼类，也就是说它们伤害到了人们的利益，所以它们才

会被人们猎杀。故选 B 项。

【9 题详解】

词义猜测题。划线单词 this 所在的句子是一个承上启下的句子，所以 this 指的是上文提到的内容，而上一

段的最后一句“In Kenya, the human population has increased four times over the last 40 years while the elephant

population declined by four-fifths.(在肯尼亚，在过去的 40 年里，人口数量增加了 4 倍，而大象的数量减少了

5 分之 4)”说的是人口的增加和大象数量的减少，由此可知，This 代指人类和大象的数量变化。故选 D 项。

【10 题详解】

推理判断题。根据第四段的句子“For instance, elephants are terrified of the spear-waving Maasai, an ethnic

group of Kenya and Tanzania who have often hurt elephants when trying to protect their own cattle.(例如，大象害

怕挥舞长矛的马赛人，这是肯尼亚和坦桑尼亚的一个民族，他们在试图保护自己的牲畜时经常伤害大象)”

和第五段“So once in an experiment by a group of zoologists, when elephants living close to the Maasai were

presented with three different T-shirts, one belonging to a Maasai, another to a different local and one to a

researcher, they only reacted with fear to the Maasai shirt, literally smelling the danger.(因此，在一组动物学家的

一次实验中，当生活在马赛人附近的大象看到三种不同的 T 恤时，一件属于马赛人，另一件属于不同的当

地人，一件属于研究人员，它们对马赛人的 T 恤只表现出恐惧，实际上是嗅到了危险)”可知，大象害怕马

赛人的 T 恤，是因为它们嗅到了危险。所以实验的目的是为了证明人类对动物的影响。故选 A 项。

【11 题详解】

主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Can you imagine someone hunting you down with a gun? Most of us

would be terrified. So, it’s no surprise that that’s how animals respond, too.(你能想象有人拿着枪追杀你吗？我们

大多数人都会害怕。所以，动物也会有这样的反应也就不足为奇了。)”可知，文章主要讲的是人类对动物

的行为已经影响了动物对人类的感知。所以用 D 项“Human Actions Have Shaped Animal Consciousness(人

类的行为塑造了动物的意识)”作为文章的题目与文章主题相符。故选 D 项。

D
It’s no surprise that Jennifer Senior’s insightful magazine cover story “I love My Children, I Hate My Life” is

arousing much chatter — nothing gets people talking like the suggestion that bringing up a child is not a completely

fulfilling, life-enriching experience. Rather than concluding that children make parents either happy or miserable,

Senior suggests we need to redefine happiness: instead of thinking of it as something that can be measured by

moment-to-moment joy, we should consider being happy as a past-tense condition. Even though the day-to-day

experience of raising kids can be extremely hard, Senior writes that “the very things that in the moment damage our

moods can later be sources of intense content and delight.”

 The magazine cover showing an attractive mother holding a cute baby is hardly the only Madonna-and-child

image on newsstands this week. There are also stories about newly adoptive — and newly single — mom Sandra

Bullock, as well as the usual “Jennifer Aniston is pregnant” news. Practically every week features at least one

celebrity mom, or mom-to-be, smiling on the newsstands.

In a society that so persistently celebrates procreation (繁衍), is it any wonder that admitting you regret having

children is equivalent to admitting you support kitten-killing? It doesn’t seem quite fair, then, to compare the

regrets of parents to the regrets of the children. Unhappy parents rarely are encouraged to wonder if they shouldn’t

have had kids, but unhappy childless folks are bothered with the message that children are the single most

important thing in the world: obviously their misery must be a direct result of the wide-open baby-size holes in

their lives.

Of course, the image of parenthood that celebrity magazines like US Weekly and People present is hugely

unrealistic, especially when the parents are single mothers like Bullock. According to several studies concluding

that parents are less happy than childless couples, single parents are the least happy of all. No shock there,

considering how much work it is to raise a kid without a partner to lean on; yet to hear celebrities tell it, raising a

kid on their “own” (read: with round-the-clock help) is a piece of cake.

It is hard to imagine that many people are stupid enough to want children because it looks so fantastic — most

adults understand that a baby is not a haircut. But it is interesting to wonder if the images we see every week of

stress-free, happiness-enhancing parenthood aren’t in some small, subconscious way contributing to our own

dissatisfactions with the actual experience, in the same way that a small part of us hoped getting a part of the way

celebrities live might make us look just a little bit like them.

12. Jennifer Senior suggests in her article that raising a child can bring ________.

A. very temporary delight

B. great enjoyment in progress

C. happiness in one’s memory

D. concern over love and hatred

13. Paragraph 2 is intended to show that ________.

A. celebrity moms are a permanent source for gossip.

B. single mothers with babies deserve greater attention.

C. news about pregnant celebrities is entertaining.

D. having children is highly valued by the public.

14. According to the passage, those childless folks________.

A. are less likely to be satisfied with their life

第 10 页/共 24 页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司
B. are largely ignored by the media.

C. fail to fulfill their social responsibilities.

D. are constantly exposed to criticism.

15. Which of the following can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A. Having children contributes little to the glamour of celebrity moms.

B. Celebrity moms have influenced our attitude towards child raising.

C. Having children intensifies our dissatisfaction with life.

D. We sometimes neglect the happiness from child raising.

【答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. B

【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要论述的是抚养孩子和幸福的关系。

【12 题详解】

细节理解题。根据第一段的“Senior suggests we need to redefine happiness: instead of thinking of it as

something that can be measured by moment-to-moment joy, we should consider being happy as a past-tense

conditionEven though the day-to-day experience of raising kids can be extremely hard, Senior writes that “the very

things that in the moment damage our moods can later be sources of intense content and delight.”.(Senior 建议，我

们需要重新定义幸福，而不是认为孩子让父母快乐或痛苦。我们不应该认为幸福是可以用每时每刻的快乐

来衡量的，而应该把幸福视为一种过去式的状态。尽管抚养孩子的日子漫长难熬，令人筋疲力尽，但

Senior 写道:“正是那些心绪沉重的时刻，日后可能会成为我们快乐的来源。)”可知，Jennifer Senior 在她的

文章中建议抚养孩子可以带来记忆中的幸福，故选 C。

【13 题详解】

主旨大意题。根据第二段的“The magazine cover showing an attractive mother holding a cute baby is hardly the

only Madonna-and-child image on newsstands this week. There are also stories about newly adoptive – and newly

抱着一个可爱的婴儿，这并不是本周报摊上唯一一张麦当娜和孩子的照片。此外，还有关于刚当上养母和

单身母亲的桑德拉·布洛克的故事，以及常见的“詹妮弗·安妮斯顿怀孕了”的新闻。实际上，每周至少

有一位明星妈妈或准妈妈在报摊上微笑。)”可知，本段主要展示的是公众非常重视生孩子。故选 D。

【14 题详解】

推理判断题。根据第三段的“unhappy childless folks are bothered with the message that children are the single

most important thing in the world: obviously their misery must be a direct result of the wide-open baby-size holes

选 D。

推理判断题。根据最后一段的“But it is interesting to wonder if the images we see every week of stress-free,

happiness-enhancing parenthood aren’t in some small, subconscious way contributing to our own dissatisfactions

感的父母形象，是否在某种微小的、潜意识的方式导致了我们对实际体验的不满，就像我们中有一小部分

响了我们对抚养孩子的态度。故选 B。

Want a relaxing but fun challenge at home? ____16____ Puzzles have been around for more than 250 years

and the challenge of working out where each piece goes and carefully recreating the scene on the box lid can keep

you busy for hours, days or even weeks.

Puzzles come in a huge range of sizes and difficulty levels. For beginners, a 100-piece puzzle is usually a good

starting point.____17____ Try grouping pieces with the same colours or design because they will probably go in

the same area once the puzzle takes shape.

____18____ Those pieces are easier to find because they have a straight side. Stay patient as you search

through and try to make it fit together. You may not find any connecting pieces for ages but then several may

suddenly appear.

For a real test, puzzles that have 1,000 pieces or more are a tough task and it’s best to complete them with

friends or family if you can. Choosing a scene that interests you, such as a favourite film, sport or location, can help

keep you interested and determined to work to the final piece. You can get fun educational puzzles, too.

____19____

Some of the best places to pick up puzzles are charity shops. They’re often on sale for less than €5. Once you

have completed a puzzle it’s nice to exchange it with a friend. ____20____ You just upload an image, such as a

family scene, and they will make a puzzle from it and post it to you. It makes lovely and unusual present.

A. So others can have a go.

B. You can’t beat a good puzzle.

C. Some companies make personalised puzzles.

On the first day of school, I stared in awe at the huge buildings. This high school was definitely bigger than

the one I had previously attended.

This was my second year of high school, but my first year of school in St. Louis. I had decided the night

before that I would be much happier in a new school if I made friends that were so-called “popular”. Getting in

with the right group of people would make my life a whole lot better. I even bought a new outfit and had my hair

styled just so the first day would be perfect.

Scared, yet anxious to begin my new life, I walked up the stairs to the front door. The halls were packed with

kids yelling and laughing and telling stories of their summer adventures. My first class was geometry, but where

was that?

I was standing in the hall looking confused, when a short, blond girl wearing glasses came up and asked, “Are

you new? You look lost. Do you need help? My name is Diane. What’s yours?” Even though she seemed a bit

strange, definitely not the kind of person I wanted to be associated with, I decided to answer her anyway. I was,

after all, lost.

After exchanging names. I followed her up the stairs and down a hallway on the right, making polite

conversation the whole way. When we reached my room she said, “Well, here you are. Welcome to JFK, and I hope

your day goes all right.”

I said thanks and waved good-bye. Once inside the classroom, I saw one big group of people huddled around

someone who seemed to be telling some sort of story. I walked over and got close enough to overhear. All eyes

were glued to the guy in the middle of the circle who was wearing a letter jacket covered with patches. I decided

that this guy was popular, so I managed to get a seat right next to him. I said, “Hi, my name is Lisa and I’m new

here.” He said, “Johnny.”

【答案】One Possible Version:

At the end of the class, I turned to him and asked, “I’m not sure where my next class is, could you help me?”

With a frown, he looked at me and then said a quick no, turned back to his friends, and walked out of the

classroom. As they were walking out I heard him say, “Did you guys see that new girl trying to get into our group?

That outfit was too strange.” They all laughed and some of them turned around and stared at me. My face hot with

shame, I stood stock-still, not believing what had just happened.

Just at that time, someone came up and tapped me on the shoulder. It was Diane. Like a ray of sunshine, the

big smile on her face swept away my gloom. I struggled to hold my feelings back and told her what I had

encountered. A gleam of concern in her eyes, she said she was sorry and offered to find my next class. At that

moment I realized how wrong I was in wanting to only be friends with popular people. Maybe I shouldn’t decide

whether a person is worth being my friend or not by their reputation, but by who they are.
