main writer of the Declaration of independence in 1776. Jefferson was one of the most influential
of the nation's Founding Fathers. He was also a plant expert, architect, musician and inventor.

Another of American's greatest presidents, Abraham Lincoln, is on the five-dollar bill. He served

democracy and individual liberty. His picture is on the twenty-dollar bill.

day, giving out cold bottles of water to worn-out hikers. He has helped hydrate so many hikers
that he has earned a heavenly nickname: the Water Angel.

Cullymore was on Camelback Mountain one day in 2015 when a British tourist died after being
lost for nearly six hours in the July heat. That experience inspired him to start helping people

3．阅读理解

Almost none of us have the time to read everything we'd like to read. Yet we lose countless
hours to daily activities that bring us little joy like taking buses and waiting in line. What if we
could turn these little blocks of unoccupied time into precious and rewarding moments for
learning and reflection?

Founded in 2012, iReader, a micro-learning app on mobile phones, brings the biggest ideas
from best-selling books through 15-minute audio (音频) and text. So far, more than 3,000 books
have been included, ranging from psychology and parenting to management and economics, with
new titles added every day.

Reader is pioneering a new method of reading, with over 9 million users enjoying the benefits
already. According to the Pew Research Center (PRC), the British read just 4 paper books a year
and over 25% haven't read a single paper book this year, but reading isn't dying. There are now
more ways for the British to read than ever before, due to the widespread use of e-books and
audio books.

The books in iReader are rewritten to ensure it is easy to remember the main content. The way
the content is edited has been specifically designed to ensure it is useful in practice. Besides, the
content is rewritten with relevant examples in real life, which means users are more likely to
remember and apply what is helpful to them.

Holger Seim, German co-founder of this app, declares, iReader gives you the biggest ideas in
the shortest possible time. It transforms great ideas into little packs you can listen to or read in
just 15 minutes.

（2）What can we infer from the PRC findings?

British benefit a lot from reading.

g methods are more important than before.

l technology are taking the place of paper books.

forms of books are changing the way the British read.

（3）How does iReader make the content easy to remember?

bringing fun to it.

making it useful.

using artistic designs.

taking users as examples.

r Prevents Reading from Dying

r Unites Worldwide Book-lovers

r: The Best New App Creation

r: Big Ideas in Small Packages

【答案】 （1）A

（2）D

（3）B

（4）D

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文， 介绍了一种阅读方式：iReader。它开创了一种新的
阅读方式，已经有超过900万的用户享受到 了这种好处，同时也正改变着英国人的阅读方
式。

（1）考查细节理解。第一段中的“Almost none of us have the time to read everything we'd
like to read.”几乎没有人有时间读我们想读的所有东西；以及最后一段中的“What if we could
turn these little blocks of unoccupied time into precious and rewarding moments for learning and
reflection?”可知作者认为我们应该把空闲的时间变成宝贵的、有价值的学习和反 思的时
间，即作者建议我们利用空闲时间来阅读和思考，故选A。

（2）考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“There are now more ways for the British to read than
ever before, due to the widespread use of e-books and audio books.”可知由于电子书 和有声书
的广泛使用，英国人现在有了比以往更多的阅读方式。即从PRC的发现中我们能得知新的书籍形式正在改变英国人的阅读方式。故选D。

4．阅读理解

I visited Elba last June, joining Mary and John on a bicycling vacation. They made the
arrangements for the car, hotel and bicycles. I studied the history of the island, which of course
particularly features Napoleon.

Napoleon (now I know) picked Elba as a place for peace when he was forced to give up the
throne (王权) as Emperor of France in 1814. Far from being a prison island, Elba is beautiful with
towering mountains, thick forests and sweeping bays and beaches.

It is also an island filled with treasure. Very early on this island, locals discovered rich deposits
of iron. Soon outsiders, too, discovered the iron and 150 other valuable minerals on this little
piece of land. Long before Etruscans and other Greeks set foot on it, Dorians had moved in by the
tenth century B. C. and were mining the island. The Romans ruled next, obtaining the minerals
and building grand houses overlooking the sea. From the twelfth century until the nineteenth,
the island was traded back and forth and was passed to France in 1802. Then came Napoleon, the
new ruler of Elba.

I was eager to visit his house in Portoferraio. The Emperor lived with his court and his mother,
but his wife, Marie Louise had ensconced herself in the splendid Viennese palace of her father,
Emperor of Austria. She lived safely there and showed little interest in visiting her husband in his
mini-kingdom. Apparently, Napoleon wasn't troubled much by this. He was too busy riding
everywhere on horseback, building roads, modernizing agriculture and, above all, sharpening his
tiny army and navy into readiness for his escape.

In the formal gardens behind the house it seemed to me that I could imagine the exiled (流放
的) conqueror's anxious thoughts. He might gaze over where I stood now, toward the lighthouse
of the Stella fort, the sandy bay, and across it, the green mountains of the Tuscan coast. Napoleon
spent only ten months here before making his victorious return to France and the throne.

（1）What did the author do for the visit to Elba?

A. He did research on its past. B. He arranged transportation.

C. He planned bicycling routes. D. He booked accommodation.

（2）Who might be the earliest outsiders to Elba according to the text?

A. Napoleon and his army. B. Etruscans and other Greeks. C. Dorians. D. Romans.

（3）What does the underlined word

d.

.

.

lled.

（4）What came to the author's mind during his visit to Napoleon's gardens?

ful views on Elba.

le living conditions on Elba.

on's ambition to regain power.

ip of Napoleon's return to France.

【答案】 （1）A

（2）C

（3）A

（4）C

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文， 作者讲述了对拿破仑曾经流放地Elba岛的参观之
旅，作者介绍了Elba岛的历史背景与拿破仑在岛 上的生活事迹。

（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“I studied the history of the island, which of course
particularly features Napoleon.”可知作者为了Elba的此次拜 访对它过去的历史做了一些学习
和研究，故选A。

（2）考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“Long before Etruscans and other Greeks set foot on it,
Dorians had moved in by the tenth century B. C. and were mining the island .”可知早在伊特鲁里
亚人和其他希腊人踏足该岛之前，多里安人在公元前10世纪就已迁入该岛，并在 岛上采
矿。故Dorians可能是最早到Elba的外来者，故选C。

（3）考查词义猜测。根据第三段中的“She lived safely there and showed little interest in
visiting her husband in his mini-kingdom.”可知Marie Louise住在Viennese很安全，对 去她丈
夫的小王国探视毫无兴趣。live对应上文的ensconce，意思为“定居；安置”，故选 A。

（4）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“In the formal gardens behind the house it seemed to
me that I could imagine the exiled (流放的) conqueror's anxious thoughts.”可知在房子后面的花
园里，作者仿佛能想象出那个被流放的征服 者的焦虑的思想。即作者在参观拿破仑的花园
时想到了拿破仑对重新掌权的野心。故选C。

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅
读， 考生需要准确掌握细节信息，同时根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，而选出
正确答案。


5．阅读理解

Jane Austen is loved mainly as a charming guide to fashionable life in the Regency period (英国
摄政时期). She is admired for describing a world of elegant houses, dances, servants and
fashionable young men driving barouches (四轮四座大马车). But her own vision of her task was
completely different. She was an ambitious and strict moralist. She was highly conscious of
human failings and she had a deep desire to make people nicer: less selfish, more reasonable and
more sensitive to the needs of others.

In Pride and Prejudice, Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bonnet start off heartily disliking each other and
then, gradually realize they are in love. They make one of the great romantic couples. He is
handsome, rich and well connected; she is pretty, smart and lively. But why actually are they right
for one another?

Jane Austen is very clear. It's for a reason we tend not to think of very much today: It is because
each can educate and improve the other. When Mr. Darcy arrives in the neighborhood, he feels

Elizabeth condemns his arrogance (自大) and pride to his face. It sounds offensive in the extreme,
but later he admits that this was just what he needed.

Mostly, we tend to think of love as liking someone for who they already are, and of total
acceptance. But the person who is right for us, Austen is saying, is not simply someone who
makes us feel relaxed or comfortable; they got to be able to help us overcome our failings and
become more mature, more honest and kinder—and we need to do something similar for them.

（1）What do we know about Jane Austen from paragraph 1?

A. She lived a fashionable life. B. She wrote about the life of the rich.

C. She knew exactly human virtues. D. She was nicer to less selfish people.

（2）What can we learn about Mr. Darcy from the text?

A. He dislikes Elizabeth from the beginning to the end.

B. He is handsome, rich and rather modest.

C. He is kind to everyone in the neighborhood.

D. He needs Elizabeth to point out his shortcomings.

（3）Which person is right for you according to Jane Austen?

A. A person that you like for who he or she is.

B. A person with whom you feel really relaxed.

C. A person making you become a better man or woman.

D. A person who does something similar to you.

（4）What message does the book Pride and Prejudice convey?

A. Improve yourself with your lover's help.

B. Accept the people you love totally.

C. Earn much money to make people love you.

D. Find your true love with pride and prejudice.

【答案】 （1）B

（2）D

（3）C

was just what he needed.“在关键时刻，伊丽莎白当面谴责了他的傲慢和骄傲。这听起来很< br>无礼，但后来他承认这正是他所需要的。可知达西先生需要伊丽莎白指出他的缺点。故选

6．阅读理解

When Shakespeare was twenty-one, he went to London, a very interesting place, to try his
fortune.

There was the famous London Bridge and St. Paul's Cathedral, and palaces and markets and
long streets full of shops.

Then, too, there were the daily crowds where could be seen people from all over the world.
Knights, scholars and the highwayman (拦路强盗）or thieves, who had been infamous for their
clever robberies, passed by each other.

Here, also, were noblemen dressed in gold, from Italy and Spain and France; slaves from
Spanish America, sea captains and ministers, soldiers and servants—all held by chances or
interests within the gray walls which circled London, and whose gates gave welcome to as strange
a crowd as could be found in the world.

Into this curious crowd came Shakespeare, quick to see and eager to learn. And before long all
these strange sights were as familiar to him as the faces of his own town's residents. Each one
told its story to him so plainly that, as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods,
so now he learned men and men's interests that make up the great world.

And he learned these lessons so well that when he came to write his plays, he made such use
of them as no writer ever made before or since; for it is the use of this knowledge of the world,
combined with his own genius, that makes Shakespeare the greatest dramatist that has ever lived.

（1）What was London like in Shakespeare's eyes when he first went there?

A. Dirty and small. B. Strange and interesting.

C. Infamous and terrible. D. Familiar and modern.

（2）Which of the following best describes Shakespeare?

A. Shakespeare got inspiration to write from his hometown, London.

B. Shakespeare was eager to make friends with the noblemen in London.

C. Shakespeare was good at observing and learning from the daily life.

D. Shakespeare became the greatest dramatist owing to his own genius.

（3）What does the word

A. Crowd. B. Resident. C. Face. D. Sight.

（4）The passage probably comes from______.

A. a poster B. a textbook C. an advertisement D. an announcement

【答案】 （1）B

（2）C

（3）D

（4）B

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇名人轶事，介绍了文学大师莎士比亚年轻时去到伦敦第一天
时遇到 的 有趣的事情。

（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“a very interesting place”和第五段中的“all these
strange sights”可知，在 Shakespeare 的眼中，伦敦是一个有趣而陌生的城市。故选B。

（2）考查推理判断。根据第五段可知，Shakespeare来到伦敦不久之后，通过观察和学习
了解了伦敦，并适应了那里的生活，由此可推断出，Shakespeare擅长观察日常生活并从中< br>学习。故选C。

（3）考查代词指代。根据第五段中的“as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and
wood s”正如他以前所学到的田野和树林的秘密那样，可知，one指的是像田野和树林一样
的景象。故选D 。
