Today Austen’s books are more popular than ever. In the last 10 years, five of her six novels have been made into Hollywood films, while her books continue to be best-sellers. Richard Jenkyns, a professor of English at Oxford University, says that her novels are about marriage, friendships and the family, which are still with us today. “The stories are timeless,”Jenkyns said. Pride and Prejudice(偏见)(1813) is Austen’s most famous work. It is a love story about Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy. At first, these two dislike each other. Elizabeth is pretty ,smart and lively. She is proud because Darcy doesn’t know about her family. Mr. Darcy is handsome, rich and has a better family background. So, he is proud as well. At the same time, Darcy holds a prejudice against the Bennet family. He has no understanding of why the family, especially its mother and daughters should try so hard to find wealthy and powerful husbands. He thinks they are vulgar. Anyway, Elizabeth and Darcy finally fall in love and become a romantic couple but their families don’t want them to. In Pride and Prejudice, some of the main things that Jane Austen wants to teach people are as follows. Opposites can attract each other. Lovers should not only make each other feel relaxed or comfortable, but also educate and improve each other. Austen os often called the greatest romanti writer,so it is surprising she remained unmarried. “Maybe she was too romantic, waiting for the perfect man,” Jenkyns says. 34. From Paragraph 1and Paragraph 2,we can know_______. A. Jane Austen passed away in her fifties B. Austen’s works remain popular today C. all of Austen’s works have been made into Hollywood films. D. Austen’s works are mostly about war and the family. 解析：推理判断题。第一段第二句，今天奥斯丁的作品比以前更受欢迎。作者：1775-1817,43 岁时就去世了，A 错;第一段第三句，她的六部作品有五部在最近 10 年中被好莱坞拍成电影，C 错;第二段显示，奥斯丁的作品基本上都是关于婚姻、友谊和家庭的话题，D 错。所以答案：B。 答案：B 35. Which of the following sentences is True? A. Elizabeth and Darcy fall in love at first sight. B. Elizabeth has a better family background than Darcy. C.Darcy has a first good impression of Elizabeth’s family. D. Elizabeth and Darcy become a romantic couple in the end. 解析：事实判断题。第三段最后一句他们俩 finally fall in love….A,B,C 项的错误分别是：他们俩一开始相互不喜欢---第三段第三句;Darcy 的家庭更好点---第三段第五句;Darcy一开始是不知道 Elizabeth 的家庭---第三段第四句。所以答案：D。 答案：D 36. What does the underlined word”vulgar” in Paragraph 3 mean? A.粗俗的 B.鲁莽的 C.吝啬的 D.伪善的 解析：词汇猜测题。Darcy 搞不懂 Elizabeth 的家人特别是她的母亲怎么就那么想把女儿嫁给富有的且有权势的男子，他觉得这很“庸俗，粗俗”。所以答案：A。 答案：A 37. From what Jenkyns says,we can learn_______. A. opposites can attract each other B. lovers should improve each other. C. Austen’s works go beyond her times D.Austen married a perfect man at last 解析：推理判断题。本题的问题时从牛津大学的教授 Jenkyns 所讲的话，我们可以看出什么。A 项和 B 项是奥斯丁作品里所表现的内容;D 项错误，因为奥斯丁一直都没结婚，或许就是因为奥斯丁作品里表现的思想超越了她所在的那个时代。所以答案：C。 答案：C C I will never forget the tenth summer of childhood with my grandfather in western Norway at the mountain farm where my mother was born. As a boy ,I always thought people simply bought whatever they need. Whether Grandfather know this, I don’t know. One day he said, ”Come, I have something for you.” I followed him to a workroom. “You should have a toy boat. You can sail it at Storvassdal.” He said. Great, I thought,looking around for the boat. But there was none. Grandfather pointed to a block of wood. “The boat is in there,” he said. Then he handed me some tools and showed me how to use them properly. “It’ll be a fine boat,and you’ll make it with your own hands,” he said,”No one can give you what you do for yourself.” The words rang in my head as I worked. Finished the boat. It wasn’t much to look at ,but I was pound. Then I sailed it at Storvassdal. We had to return to America. “You cannot bring that boat home with you,” my mother said. We already had too much baggage. Feeling sad, I hid my boat under a big rock at Storvassdal. I said good-bye to Grandfather, not knowing I would never see him again. In 1964, I went to Storvassdal with my parents and my wife and children. To my surprise,for 34 years my treasure stayed here,waiting for my return. I felt we three were together again although my grandfather had died 22 years before. I carved”1930”and”1964” on its side and put it back. I returned to the lake in 1968,1971,1977 and 1988. Each time I had the boat and carved the year,my grandfather seemed near. My last trip to Storvassdal was in 1991. I brought my granddaughters: Catherine,13; Claire,12. I hoped they would understand the importance of the little boat and its simple message. At Storvassdal, Claire said softly,‘Grandpa,someday I’ll come back.” She added,”And I’ll bring my children.” 38. What lesson did the writer’s grandfather probably teach him? A. Boys should have a toy boat at childhood. B. People can simply buy whatever they need. C.Boys should learn to make a boat out of wood. D. No one can give you what you do for yourself. 解析：推理判断题。作者小时候开始以为大人们想要什么就可以买什么，然而外公让他自己做想要的玩具船，同时告诉他 No one can give you what you do for yourself---第三段中间。所以答案：D。 答案：D 39. The underline words”we three” in Paragraph 6 refer to_______ A. Mother,the boat and me. B. Grandfather,the boat and me. C. Catherine,Claire and me. D. Grandfather, Mother and me. 解析：推理判断题 34 年之后，作者再次回到小时候制作玩具船的地方，小时候珍藏的那船还在，外公虽然 22 年就去世了，但是作者睹物思人，感觉船、外公和自己好像还在一起。所以答案：B。 答案：B 40. According to the passage,we can infer(推断)that_______ A. The writer’s mother was born in western Norway. B. The writer’s grandfather died in 1930. C. The boat took me back to Norway four times. D. Claire understood the meaning of the boat. 解析：推理判断 题。文章最后一段第三句，那艘船让作者懂得了外公跟他说的话的意思。A 项是文章第一段以及告知的事实，本题的 infer 要求是推断出来的，所以 A 项不选。B 项错，作者外公根据文章所说应该是 1942 年去世的;C 项错，因为作者总共去了 5次。所以答案：D。 答案：D 41. What’s the best title of the passage? A. The Little Boat That Sailed Through Time B. The Little Boat And My Wife C. The Little Boat That Sailed At Storvassdal D. The Little Boat And My Parents 解析：主旨大意题。本文围绕的就是小时候亲手制作的那艘小船所展开的回忆。随着岁月的流逝，作者更加体会了当年外公的用意，并让小船的意义一代代传承下去。所以答案：A。 答案：A D Is your TV connected to the Internet? What about your chair,or your fridge? Probably they are not. But in the future, most things in your home may be connected, thanks to the so-called “Internet of things”. The Internet of things may be coming sooner than you think. Earlier this year, Aamsung CEO spent a lot of time talking about the Internet things. He said that five years from now,every Samsung product will be part of the Internet of things,no matter whether it’s a remote control or a washing machine. So, how do household(家用的) objects that are part of the Internet of things work? Well,think of a common chair. When connected to the Internet, the chair warms up when it knows the user has just walked into the room and is feeling cold. An Internet-connected camera could help people feel safer in their homes. It can know people’s faces and has an infrared sensor(红外传感器),so even if it’s dark it can see when someone passes by and send you a message on your smartphone to let you know who’s there. If the person is someone you don’t know,it can tell you that ,too. But according to MIT Technology Review, whether companies are connecting dog food bowls or security systems to the Internet, there may be some problems. For example, many early connected-home objects don’t have much built-in security, which means they could be hacked(被黑客攻击). Moreover, it could be difficult to get these new machines to work together especially when they are made by different companies. To fight this ,many companies have joined the Open Interconnect Consortium, which had 45 members by late 2014. So, picture this: you enter your home.The temperature changes to make you feel comfortable. Your favorite music starts playing for you. Do you think that this would be a good thing? I t may happen sooner than you think. 42. What does the article mainly talk about? A. Advantages of living with the Internet. B.Disadvantages of living with the Internet. C. The coming ” Internet of things”. D.The impossible ” Internet of things”. 解析：主旨大意题。第二段第一句和最后一段都说明本文主要谈的即将到来的 Internet of things. A 项，网络生活的优点;B,网络生活的缺点;D 项，不可能的网络物体。所以答案：C。 答案：C 43. Which of the following can support the idea “how will household objects connected to the Internet work?” A. A warm chair connected to the Internet. B. Dog food bowls connected to the Internet. C. A remote control made by the Samsung Company. D. An Internet-connected camera with an infrared sensor. 解析：推理判断题。第四段详细介绍了和网络相连接的相机是怎么工作的：利用红外感光器向手机发送附近经过的人的信息，从而让主人在家中感到更加的安全。A,B,C 项都没有说明这些未来网络物体的工作方式。所以答案：D。 答案：D 44. Paragraph 5 is mainly about _________. A. the possible problems of” the Internet of things” B. the problems with early connected-home objects C. how to get different new machines working together D. how to solve the ” the Internet of things” problems 解析：主旨大意题。第五段第一句，对于一些未来一些物体连接到网络时，可能会有一些网络安全问题。B 项，只是其中的一个例子，而不是该段的主旨;C 项是所举例子的具体问题;D 项错，因为这段最后谈到的解决的方法，也只是对所举例子中出现的问题，目前部分厂家是怎么克服的。所以答案：A。 答案：A 45. Which of the following words best describes the writer’s tone(语气) in the article? A. Doubtful B. Hopeful C. Humorous D. Worried 解析：推理判断题。最后一段最后一句 It may happen sooner than you think.可以看出作者对于 Internet of things 还是非常期待的。四项的意思分别是：怀疑;期待;幽默;担心。所以答案：B。 答案：B 四、词汇运用(共10小题，每小题0.5分，计5分) 根据句子的意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。(每空一词) 46.

This spring, I chose Yangzhou to be my first stop on a 16-month trip around China. It was like love at first sight. At 15, I bought a book of collection of poems about Tang Dynasty. Through it, I heard of Yangzhou for the first time. I was deeply attracted by a poem written by Li Bai-“Sailing to Yangzhou in March”. Yangzhou,sitting 2,500 years at the crossing of the Yangtze River and the 2,400-year-old Grand Canal(大运河),is one of the first 24 historic and cultural cities in China. In the old town,there are many streets an houses. It’s best to visit the city in spring. Spring paints the city in bright colors. Yangzhou has always been famous for its gardens. Among them ,the Slender West Lake, one of the biggest attractions in the city,was my first stop. The park with its fantastic landscape and lots of history has enough to keep a tourist busy for the whole day. What a shame I simply could afford half a day! My next stop was He Garden,one of the best protected gardens in Yangzhou. It was once owned by the family of He Zhidao in Qing Dynasty. He Zhidao successfully brought Chinese and Western architectural(建筑的) features together. Yangzhou is also the starting point of the Grand Canal tour.
