状元考前提醒

拿到试卷:熟悉试卷

刚拿到试卷一般心情比较紧张,建议拿到卷子以后看看考卷一共几页,

有多少道题,了解试卷结构,通览全卷是克服“前面难题做不出,后面易

题没时间做”的有效措施,也从根本上防止了“漏做题”。

答题策略

答题策略一共有三点: 1. 先易后难、先熟后生。先做简单的、熟悉的题,再做综合题、难题。 2. 先小后大。先做容易拿分的小题,再做耗时又

复杂的大题。3. 先局部后整体。把疑难问题划分成一系列的步骤,一步一

步的解决,每解决一步就能得到一步的分数。

立足中下题目,力争高水平

考试时,因为时间和个别题目的难度,多数学生很难做完、做对全部题目,所以在答卷中要立足中下题目。中下题目通常占全卷的80%以上,是试题的主要构成,学生能拿下这些题目,实际上就是有了胜利在握的心理,对攻克高档题会更放得开。

确保运算正确,立足一次性成功

在答卷时,要在以快为上的前提下,稳扎稳打,步步准确,尽量一次

性成功。不能为追求速度而丢掉准确度,甚至丢掉重要的得分步骤。试题

做完后要认真做好解后检查,看是否有空题,答卷是否准确,格式是否规

范。

要学会“挤”分

考试试题大多分步给分,所以理科要把主要方程式和计算结果写在显要位置,文科尽量把要点写清晰,作文尤其要注意开头和结尾。考试时,每一道题都认真思考,能做几步就做几步,对于考生来说就是能做几分是几分,这是考试中最好的策略。

检查后的涂改方式要讲究

发现错误后要划掉重新写,忌原地用涂黑的方式改,这会使阅卷老师看不清。如果对现有的题解不满意想重新写,要先写出正确的,再划去错误的。有的同学先把原来写的题解涂抹了,写新题解的时间又不够,本来可能得的分数被自己涂掉了。考试期间遇到这些事,莫慌乱!

II. Grammar and vocabulary

Section A

Directions:After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.

The biggest house of cards, the longest tongue, and of course, the tallest man: these are among the thousands of records logged in the famous Guinness Book of Records. Created in 1955 after a debate (21)

_______ (concern) Europe's fastest game bird, (22) _______ began as a marketing tool sold to pub landlords (23) _______ (promote) Guinness, an Irish drink, became the bestselling copyright title of all time (a category that excludes books such as the Bible and the Koran). In time, the book would sell 120 million copies in over 100 countries— quite a leap from its humble beginnings.

In its early years, the book set its sights on (24) _______ (satisfy) man's inborn curiosity about the natural world around him. Its two principal fact finders, twins Norris and Ross McWhirter, moved wildly around the globe to collect facts. It was their task to find and document aspects of life that can be sensed or observed, things that can be quantified or measured. But not just any things. They were only interested in superlatives: the biggest and the best. It was during this period (25) _______ some of the remarkable

Guinness Records were documented, answering such questions as "What is the brightest star?" and "What

is the biggest spider?"

Once aware of the public's thirst for such knowledge, the book's authors began to branch out to cover increasingly doubtful, little-known facts. They started documenting human achievements as well. A forerunner for reality television, the Guinness Book gave people (26) _______ chance to become famous

for accomplishing odd, often pointless tasks. Records were set in 1955 for consuming 24 raw eggs in 14 minutes and in 1981 for the fastest solving of a Rubik's Cube (which took a mere 38 seconds). In 1979 a

man yodeled(用真假嗓音交替唱)non-stop for ten and a quarter hours.

In its latest appearance, the book has found a new home on the internet. No longer (27) _______ (restrict) to the limits of physical paper, the Guinness World Records website contains seemingly innumerable facts concerning such topics as the most powerful combustion(燃烧)engine, or the world's longest train. What is striking, however, is that such facts are found sharing a page with the record of the heaviest train to be pulled (28) _______ a beard.

Originating as a simple bar book, the Guinness Book of Records (29) _______ (evolve) over decades

to provide insight into the full range of modern life. And although one may be (30) _______ (likely) now to learn about the widest human mouth than the highest number of casualties in a single battle of the Civil War, the Guinness World Records website offers a telling glimpse into the future of fact-finding and record-recording.

Section B

Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

A. decline

B. invested

C. scratching

D. harvest

E. farmers

F. barely

G. occurrence H. implementation I. unmarketable J. adjustments K. enemies

Like many people acting on the desire to eat healthy and local, Acropolis resident Eduardo Jimenez decided to plant a garden in his backyard. He ploughed the soil, he planted the seeds, and he even set up a fence to keep out the deer. Eduardo did everything right. Or so it seems. However, when (31) _____ time

has come, he has not one tomato, bean, or leaf of lettuce to show for his hard work. How did this happen? The answer comes in the form of a small, brown, particularly smelly insect: the stink bug.

Unlike their picky cousins, stink bugs feed on some 300 species of plants, including figs, blueberries, corn, and kiwi fruits as well as soybeans, peas, and weeds. Although they do little damage to the plant itself, they make the fruits and vegetables (32) _______. For this reason, stink bugs pose the most serious threat

to the big agriculturalists and macro farm operators. Macro farmers have more (33) _______ in their produce, and therefore have more to lose. While hobbyists like Eduardo are left to face the disappointment

of an unsuccessful garden, macro farmers are forced to live with the loss of entire tracts of cash crops—a

fact that has left many (34) _______ able to clothe their children or put food on the table.

Last season alone, several New Jersey pepper farmers saw 75% of their crops damaged. Pennsylvania lost half of its peach population, and, according to the US Apple Association, apple farmers in the mid-Atlantic states lost $37 million. This year could be worse. As a result of this (35) _______ in the supply of fresh fruits and vegetables, shoppers have seen (36) _______—sometimes quite dramatic—in prices at the grocery store. Prices of apples in Maryland are up 8%. In the north-Atlantic states, prices for peppers shot up an astonishing 14%. Not only are these items becoming more expensive, but they are also getting harder to find. Last week, Marge Jenkins of Athens, Georgia reported having to check three different stores before encountering a decent batch of peas. And this, she assures us, is a regular (37) _______. Accidentally brought from Asia, the stink bug has no natural (38) _______ in America, and thus

its population is rising sharply. Reported sightings of stink bugs are becoming increasingly numerous, as

the dried, brown, trapezoidal(不规则四边形)shells of the dead bugs are everywhere in some areas. This has farmers and scientists alike (39) _______ their heads in search of a remedy. Hope, they believe, may lie with an Asian parasitic wasp(黄蜂), which helpfully lays its eggs inside stink bug eggs.

The larvae(幼虫)of the wasp consume the stink bug from the inside. But the (40) _______ of such

a solution is still several years away, as scientists must first determine if it is safe for the wasp to be introduced into America. Until then, some farmers are resorting to homemade traps. Others have even contemplated the use of peacocks and praying mantises, which, they imagine, will gulp down the little stinkers.

Section B

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished

statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best

according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

A

Being able to land safely is a critically important skill for all flying animals. Whereas terrestrial

animals face no particular challenge when they need to stop running or crawling, flying animals move at

much higher speeds, and they must be careful about how they land. Hitting the ground, or even water, at

full flight speed would be quite dangerous. Before touching down, they must decrease their speed in order

to land safely. Both bats and birds have mastered the skill of landing, but these two types of flyers go about

it quite differently.

In the past it was believed that, in terms of flying mechanics, there was little difference between bats

and birds. This belief was based only on assumption,

however, because for years nobody had actually studied

in detail how bats move their wings. In recent years,

though, researchers have discovered a number of

interesting facts about bat flight. Bats are built differently

from birds, and their wings incorporate(结合)both their

front and hind limbs (后肢). This makes their limbs

working together more difficult for bats and, as a result, they are not very good at flying over longer

distances. However, a bat can quickly change its direction of flight or completely reverse it, something a

bird cannot easily do.

Another interesting characteristic of bat flight is the way in which bats land—upside down! Unlike

birds, which touch down on the ground or on tree branches, bats can be observed flying around and then

suddenly hanging upside down from an object overhead. How do they do it? A group of researchers

recently used video cameras to film bats landing on nets suspended from the ceiling of their laboratory and

studied the recordings in slow motion. They painted spots on the bats’ wings to see in detail what ha to the wings in flight and during touchdown. It turns out that the bats flew in a straight line up to the net

and then quickly flipped over and attached themselves to it upside down. One disadvantage to this landing

routine is that the bats often slam into their landing spot with some force, which probably causes pain.

However, not all bats hit their landing spots with the same speed and force; these will vary depending on

the area where a bat species makes its home. For example, a cave bat, which regularly rests on a hard stone

ceiling, is more careful about its landing preparation than a bat more accustomed to landing in leafy

treetops.

56.In line 1, the word terrestrial is closest in meaning to _______.

A. high-flying

B. fast-moving

C. tree-climbing

D. ground-living

57.According to the passage, what skill is crucial for flying animals?

A. Diving underwater.

B. Slowing down to land.

C. Flying over great distances.

D. Balancing on high branches.

58.According to the passage, what is an advantage that bats have over birds?

A. Bats can land on a greater variety of surfaces.

B. Bats can turn in the air more quickly.

C. Bats can eat while flying.

D. Bats are lighter.

59.What is the main topic of the passage?

A. Places where flying animals choose to land.

B. Why scientists have difficulty observing bats.

C. Differences in the eating habits of bats and birds.

D. Ways in which bats move differently from birds.

B

Milton Hershey was born near the small village of Derry Church, Pennsylvania, in 1857. He only attended school through the fourth grade; at that point, he was apprenticed(做学徒)to a printer in a nearby town. After a while, he left the printing business and was apprenticed to a Lancaster, Pennsylvania candy maker. And at the age of eighteen, he opened his own candy store in Philadelphia. In spite of his talents as a candy maker, the shop failed after six years.

After the failure of his Philadelphia store, Milton headed for Denver, where he learned the art of making caramels(焦糖). Then in Denver, Milton once again attempted to open his own candy-making businesses, in Chicago, New Orleans, and New York City. Finally, in 1886, he went to Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where he raised the money necessary to try again. This company— the Lancaster Caramel Company—established Milton’s reputation

as a master candy maker.

In 1893, Milton attended the Chicago International Exposition, where he saw a display of German chocolate-making implements. Fascinated by the equipment, he purchased it for his Lancaster candy factory and began producing chocolate, which he used for coating his caramels. By the next year, production had grown to include cocoa, sweet chocolate, and baking chocolate. The Hershey Chocolate company was born in 1894 as a subsidiary(子公司)of the Lancaster Caramel Company. Six years later, Milton sold the caramel company, but reserved the rights, and the equipment, to make chocolate. He believed that a large market of chocolate consumers was waiting for someone to produce reasonably priced

candy. He was right.

Milton Hershey returned to the village where he had been born, in the heart of dairy country, and opened his chocolate manufacturing plant. With access to all the fresh milk he needed, he began producing

the finest milk chocolate. The plant that opened in a small Pennsylvania village in 1905 is today the largest chocolate factory in the world. The sweets created at this facility are favorites around the world.

The area where the factory is located is now known as Hershey, Pennsylvania. Within the first decades

of its existence, the town of Hershey thrived, as did the chocolate business. A bank, a school, churches, a department store, even a park and a trolley system all appeared in short order; the town soon even had a zoo. Today, a visit to the area reveals the Hershey Medical Center, Milton Hershey School, and Hershey’s Chocolate World—a theme park where visitors are greeted by a giant Reeses Peanut Butter Cup. All of

these things—and a huge number of happy chocolate lovers—were made possible because a caramel maker visited the Chicago Exposition of 1893!

60.The mention of the 1893 Exposition indicates that _______

A. the exposition in Chicago is held once every three years.

the World.”

B. the theme of the exposition of 1893 was “Food from Around

C. the exposition contained displays from a variety of countries.

D. the site of the exposition is now a branch of the Hershey Chocolate Company.

61.According to the passage, Milton Hershey sold his caramel company in _______

A. 1894.

B. 1900.

C. 1904.

D. 1905.

62.What can you infer from the passage?

A. Chocolate is popular in every country in the world.

B. Reeses Peanut Butter Cups are manufactured by the Hershey Chocolate Company.

C. Chocolate had never been manufactured in the United States before Milton Hershey did it.

D. The Hershey Chocolate Company now makes more money f rom Hershey’s Chocolate World than

from the manufacture and sale of chocolate.

63.The author wrote this passage mainly to _______

A. recount the founding of the Hershey Chocolate Company.

B. describe the process of manufacturing chocolate.

C. compare the popularity of chocolate to other candies.

D. explain how apprenticeships work.

Like their ancient toga-wearing counterparts, modern philosophers continue to disagree on the nature

of freewill. Do we really have any control over the choices we make and the things we desire, and if so, to

what degree?

Theories of freewill vary, but the ancient words of Plato still line up with our modern perceptions(概

念)of temptation and willpower. The respected Greek philosopher argued that the human experience is one of constant struggle between the intellect and the body, between rationality and desire. Along these lines, true freedom is only achievable when willpower unchains us from bodily, emotional, instinctual slavery.

You can find similar thoughts throughout world religions, most of which offer a particular and often difficult path to rise above our darker natures.

And science? Well, science mostly agrees with all of this. Willpower is all about overcoming your natural desires to eat cupcakes, skip your morning workout, play games on mobile phone, hit the snooze alarm and check your e-mail during a funeral.

Your willpower, however, is limited. If life were a video game, you'd see a glowing "willpower" or "ego"(自我)meter at the top of the screen next to your "life" meter. Successfully resist one temptation, and the meter drains a little. The next temptation drains the "willpower" meter even more, until there's nothing left at all.

Our modern scientific understanding of willpower in large part stems from a 1996 research experiment involving chocolate and radishes(小红萝卜). Psychologist Roy Baumeister led a study in which 67 test subjects were presented with tempting chocolate chip cookies and other chocolate-flavored treats before a persistence-testing puzzle. Here's the catch: The researchers asked some of the participants to withdraw from sweets and snack on radishes instead.

Baumeister's results told a fascinating story. The test subjects who resisted the sweet stuff in favor of radishes performed poorly on the persistence test. They simply didn't have the willpower left to resist slacking off(松懈).

The research inspired more than a thousand additional studies discussing everything from the influence of positive messages to the ego-sapping power of daily decisions

Studies also show that cognitive capacity also affects our ability to hold out against temptation. Cognitive capacity is essentially your working memory, which you employ when resisting a temptation ...

or holding a string of numbers in your head. A 1999 study from the University of Iowa professor Baba Shiv found that people tasked with remembering a two-digit number held out better than people remembering a seven-digit number when tempted with chocolate cake.

64.What do you understand by ‘freewill’?

A. The control we have over the choices.

B. The choices we make and the things we desire

C. The choices that philosophers force us to make

D. Our perception of temptation.

65.According to Plato, when is true freedom available?

A. When there is a struggle between the intellect and the body

B. When our willpower helps us to overcome our basic instincts

C. When we desire that which we cannot achieve

D. When we have no control over our ego

66.What is meant by ‘cognitive capacity’?

B. Our ability to overcome temptation

A. Willpower to realize one’s own ego.

C. Our ability to remember things.

D. The desire to give in to temptation

Section C

Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each

sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.

A. One reason that it’s urgent is that countries are sending more and more objects into space.

B. There are also millions of smaller pieces of junk that we can’t see.

C. Blowing up older satellites with a missile may create thousands of smaller pieces!

D. In the upper parts of the atmosphere, it will burn up.

E. When two objects in space collide, the two objects break into many smaller pieces.

F. Years of space exploration have left tons of “space junk” in orbit around the planet.

Many people know that trash is a big problem on planet Earth. What many people don’t know trash has become a problem in outer space too. (67) __________________________________

Statistically, there are more than 22,000 pieces of junk in space around the earth. And these are just

the items that we can see from the surface of the earth by telescopes or radars. (68)

______________________________

Objects, like bits of old space rockets or satellites, move around the planet at very high speeds, so fast

that even a very small piece can break important satellites or become dangerous to people, particularly

astronauts. If the tiniest piece of junk crashed into a spacecraft, it could damage the vehicle. That

the faster an object moves, the greater the impact if the object collides with something else.

To help minimize additional space junk, countries around the world have agreed to limit the time their

space tools stay in orbit to 25 years. Each tool must be built to fall safely into the earth’s atmosphere, or the mass of gases that surround the earth, after that. (69) ________________________________

Many scientists are also proposing different ways to clean up space junk. The Germans have been

planning a space mission with robots that would collect pieces of space trash and bring them back to Earth

so that they can be safely destroyed.

"In our opinion the problem is very challenging, and it's quite urgent as well," said Marco Castronuovo, an Italian Space Agency researcher who is working to solve the problem. (70) _______________________________ Many of these objects are tools that help people use their cell phones or computers.

"The time to act is now; as we go farther in time we will need to remove more and more fragments,"

he says.

IV. Summary Writing

Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

Should some books be banned from school libraries?

Are there Harry Potter books in your school library? Many kids all over the world are reading J. K. Rowling's books in school. But some parents think their children shouldn't be able to find those and other books in school libraries. Should school libraries keep books that some parents don't approve of? Should

they take those books off the shelves? All over the country, schools are wrestling with those questions.

It’s true that some hold their argument that some books should be banned from school libra ries! "We need certain limits," said one student in Denver, Colorado. He said some books have no place in school libraries. Many people believe that books that contain violence or bad words shouldn't be in schools. Some people want the Harry Potter books removed because they contain talk about wizards and magic.

Most parents know what's good for kids. They have a right to decide which books should or should

not be in school libraries.

Books should meet certain standards before they are put in schools. Is this a good book for kids to read? Is it full of violence? Does it contain bad words or ideas kids shouldn't learn about? If a book is not good

for all kids, it should not be in a school library. Most parents don't have time to find out everything their

kids read. They should be able to trust schools to do that for them.

On the other hand, some believe that books should not be banned from school libraries! "Parents should decide what their own kids read," said Natalie Nicol, of Denver, Colorado. But other parents shouldn't make that choice for them. Many experts say that it's the parents' job, not the school's job, to check out what their kids are reading. If they don't like a book, they should not let their kids read it.

Why should a few parents stop kids from reading stories like the Harry Potter series? Kids should be able to check out books their parents think are OK to read. Many schools let kids borrow certain books if

they have a signed paper from a parent. That works fine. A parent doesn't sign the paper if he or she doesn't want the child to read the book. Other kids can read the books if they have permission.

Some books are not OK for all kids to read. But if more adults were careful about what their own kids read, they wouldn't have to ban books from the library.

Section B

Directions: In Section B, you will hear several longer conversation(s) and short passage(s), and you will be asked several questions on each of the conversation(s) and the passage(s). The conversation(s) and the

passage(s) will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one would be the best answer to the question you have heard.

Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.

People in the United States love their dogs and treat them well.

However, dogs without owners to care for them lead a different kind of life. The expression "to lead a dog's life" describes a person who has an unhappy existence. Some people say we live in a "dog-eat-dog world." That means many people are competing for the same things, like good jobs. They say that to be successful, a person has to "work like a dog." This means they have to work very, very hard. Such hard

work can make people "dog-tired." And the situation would be even worse if they became "sick as a dog."

Some people are compared to dogs in bad ways. People who are unkind or uncaring can be described as "meaner than a junkyard dog." Junkyard dogs live in places where people throw away things they do not want. Mean dogs are often used to guard this property. They bark or attack people who try to enter the property. However, sometimes a person who appears to be mean and threatening is really not so bad. We say "his bark is worse than his bite."

A junkyard is not a fun place for a dog. Many dogs in the United States sleep in safe little houses near their owners' home. These doghouses provide shelter. Yet they can be cold and lonely in the winter. Husbands and wives use this doghouse term when they are angry at each other. For example, a woman might get angry at her husband for coming home late, or forgetting their wedding anniversary. She might

tell him that he is "in the doghouse." She may not treat him nicely until he apologizes. However, the husband may decide that it is best to leave things alone and not create more problems. He might decide to "let sleeping dogs lie."

Questions:

-eat-dog world”, what does he mean?

11.I f a person says that he is living in a “dog

12.If a person is called mean to others, what phrase can we use to describe him?

assage?

13.W hat would a husband probably do if he is “in the doghouse” according to the p Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.

In Jiading, a district of Shanghai, no fewer than 38 private museums and galleries have sprung up.

Shanghai Zhuyun Art Museum has been open to the general public since September 2008. It is focused on displaying Jiading's local culture, art, and history. Exhibits include over 70 paintings and works

of calligraphy by famed Jiading artists dating back to the Ming and Qing dynasties. The museum also includes more than 10 Jiading bamboo carving works and ancient books.

Jiayuanhai Art Center, which opened to the public in December 2013, was developed from four renewed factories. The art center hosts exhibitions but also offers studio space for resident artists. It also

acts as a storage space for art and a service center. The center strives to be a multipurpose art center integrating art creation, exhibiting, art investment, and consumption. It is also an important public space for artists to exchange ideas.

The Shanghai Xiangdong Buddha Museum boasts more than 1,000 Buddha statues, with the earliest dating back to the Northern Wei Dynasty. The statues span a broad range of styles, postures, and expressions. There are standing, sitting, solemn, and relaxed Buddhas on display. The museum covers a range of delicate techniques developed in Chinese sculptural art and represents many different periods.

Furthermore, there is diversity in terms of the materials used. There are gold, silver, bronze, iron, porcelain, ivory, and rosewood sculptures. For those fascinated by Buddhist sculpture, Shanghai Xiangdong Buddha Museum is certainly a great place to go.

Questions:

14.What does Zhuyun Art Museum display to the public?

15.W hat’s the purpose of Jiayuanhai Art Center?

16.Which of the following statements is not true about Xiangdong Buddha Museum?

Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.

M: Hello, Mrs Kaul.

W: Good afternoon. Mr. Spear. Anything wrong with Amit?

M: Oh, don’t worry. I wanted to see you in connection with certain things I’ve b een noticing about

Amit.

W: Has he been playing up?

M: No, he is a little withdrawn. He doesn’t mix around with other children.

W: Is he inattentive also?

M: Well, he is certainly not as alert as he used to be.

W: Oh! This is upsetting. I organize his day myself.

M: Could it be too much TV?

W: No, he’s allowed to watch TV only after two hours of concentrated work.

M: I think you are overdoing both, TV and work. When does he play?

W: In school.

rs of unstructured play.

W: What do you mean by unstructured play?

M: It means free, uncontrolled play. It could make all the difference.

W: You really think so?

ll see a M: Yes! Half an hour of TV and no video games. Try this for a few days and I’m sure you wi change in him.

Questions:

17.W hat’s the relationship between the two speakers?

18.W hat’s the problem with the boy Amit?

19.How does the woman feel after knowing Amit’s situation?

20.W hich of the following proverbs is the man’s suggestion based on?
