But as far back as second grade, I noticed a “darkness” about me. I didnt enjoy participating in many things.In middle school, things in my life began to get even worse. I began withdrawing from everything I once enjoyed. I was always tired. Everything was horrible. Finally, midway through eighth grade, I was told I had a chemical imbalance, diagnosed (诊断) with clinical depression, and had to take medicine. It took months for me to feel the effects of the medicine.When I began to feel happy again is when I realized that I had to take the responsibility for getting better myself, rather than relying on medicine.Aristotle said, “To live happily is an inward power of the soul,” and I believe that this quote describes what I had to do to achieve happiness. Happiness is a journey. Everyone seems to need different things to be happy.“The essentials (要素) to happiness are something to love, something to do, and something to hope for,”a quote from William Blake sums up what I believe people need to realize to be truly happy in life. People need love. I feel they need their family and their friends more than anything else in the world. People need work to do, something to make them feel they are making a difference in the world. People need to know that more good is to come in the future, so they continue to live for “now” instead of constantly worrying about the bad that could come. Love and hope are happiness.【文章大意】作者根据自己克服抑郁症的经历总结出了幸福生活的要素。1What do we know about the author in Paragraph 2?AHe hated going to sleep because he couldnt sleep well.BHe spent months recovering from the clinical depression.CHe was diagnosed with clinical depression in Grade Seven.DHe suffered a great deal from clinical depression.答案与解析:D考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“I began withdrawing from everything I once enjoyed.

Banks, companies, and government agencies use secret codes in doing business, especially when information is sent by computer.People have used secret codes for thousands of years. 1 Code breaking never lags (落后) far behind code making. The science of creating and reading coded messages is called cryptography.There are three main types of cryptography. 2 For example, the first letters of My elephant eats too many eels spell out the hidden message Meet me. 3 You might represent each letter with a number, for example. Lets number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message Meet me would read 13 5 5 20 13 5.A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the message of a real code, you must have a code book. 4 For example, bridge might stand for meet and out might stand for me. The message Bridge out would actually mean Meet me. 5 However, it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long. So codes must be changed frequently.A. It is very hard to break a code without the code book.B. In any language, some letters are used more than others.C. Only people who know the keyword can read the message.D. As long as there have been codes, people have tried to break them.E. You can hide a message by having the first letters of each word spell it out.F. With a code book, you might write down words that would stand for other words.G. Another way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了密码的设置和破解的方法。比如利用该字母在字母表中排序的数字来代表该字母,或者利用一些单词的首字母来组成一个密码等。1.D 【解题思路】根据后面一句Code breaking never lags(落后) far behind code making可知,此空该选D(只要有密码的存在,人们就会试图去破解它们)。2.E 【解题思路】根据后一句的For example, the first letters of My elephant eats too many eels spell out the hidden message Meet me.可知,此空该选E(你可以拼写每个单词的第一个字母来隐藏信息)。3.G 【解题思路】上一段介绍了第一种密码类型,本段介绍的是第二种类型,再根据空后的内容可知,空处选G(另外一种隐藏信息的方式是用符号来代表字母表中的特定字母)。4.F 【解题思路】由前一句的a code book和空后的bridgemight stand for.me.可知,此空该选F(有了密码书,你就可以写下代表其他单词的单词)。5.A 【解题思路】本段介绍的是密码书,根据空后的转折可知,此处该选A(没有密码书是很难破解密码的)。三、短文改错Mistakes are unavoidable in life.But attitudes towards it may make a difference.I still remember how my spoken English was improved.In a beginning,I always kept silent in our oral class to avoid make mistakes. Before long my teacher got to know about my situation. He encouraged me to speak out that I thought.Whenever I made mistakes and felt discouraging,my teacher and my classmates would help me figure out how I must have avoided them. I also joined in an English club to get more chances to speak.Practice made perfect.Now I can talk fluent in English.Just as the saying goes,“Every bean has its black.” Dont afraid of making mistakes.Learn from mistakes,and success is just waiting for us.【答案】Mistakes are unavoidable in life.But attitudes towards may make a difference.I still remember how my spoken English was improved.In beginning,I always kept silent in our oral class to avoid mistakes. Before long my teacher got to know about my situation. He encouraged me to speak out I thought.Whenever I made mistakes and felt ,my teacher and my classmates would help me figure out how I have avoided them. I also joined an English club to get more chances to speak.Practice perfect.Now I can talk in English.Just as the saying goes,“Every bean has its black.” Dont afraid of making mistakes.Learn from mistakes,and success is just waiting for us.第一处:itthem。考查代词。根据语境可知,第二句中“towards”的宾语指代的是第一句的主语“Mistakes”,故用them。第二处:athe。考查冠词。根据前一句“I still remember how my spoken English was improved.”可知,该处特指上文中“提高英语口语水平”的开始,故用定冠词。第三处:makemaking。考查非谓语动词。avoid doing sth.为固定用法,意为“避免做某事”。第四处:thatwhat。考查宾语从句。分析该句结构可知,该句为含有宾语从句的主从复合句,what既作宾语从句的引导词,也作从句中及物动词thought的宾语,而that在从句中不能作成分,故将that改为what。第五处:discouragingdiscouraged。考查形容词。根据从句主语I可知,该处应用discouraged形容人,意为“沮丧的”;discouraging形容事物,意为“令人沮丧的”。 第六处:mustcould。考查情态动词。根据语境可知,该句使用了虚拟语气,表示“过去本能够做却没有做”,故用could have done。第七处:删除in。考查固定搭配。该处指“参加英语俱乐部”,参加某个组织用join,而join in为固定搭配,意为“参加活动”,故删除in。第八处:mademakes。考查主谓一致和时态。句意:熟能生巧。该句为一般真理,故用一般现在时;该句主语为Practice,为不可数名词,谓语动词应用单数形式,故用makes。第九处:fluentfluently。考查副词。根据该句中的动词“talk”可知,此处修饰动词,故用副词形式。第十处:afraid前加be。考查祈使句。分析句子结构可知,该句为祈使句,afraid为形容词,故afraid前加动词原形be。四、短文语法填空3-D printers 1.(be) around us for some time.There is a lot you can do and imagine with a 3-D printer.Now add “building a house in a day” 2. the list.A company in China has 3.(recent) used 3-D printers to make ten full-size houses in just 24 hours.And each of the houses covers an area of 200 square meters.These houses are printed with special “ink”4. has been made from industrial construction waste.The using of cheap material makes 5. possible to print each house under $5,000.The CEO of the company says,“They are both environmentally 6.(friend) and cost-effective.”He plans to set up 100 recycling factories across China and continue 7.(change) waste into cost-effective “ink” for 3-D printers.He also hopes his printers can be used to build tall 8.(build).However,at present,multi-storey 3-D printed buildings are not allowed in China.So its impossible that the 3-D printing technology will be 9.(wide) used to build homes any time soon.Maybe there is still 10. long way to go.答案1.have been2.to3.recently4.that/which5.it6.friendly7.changing/to change8.buildings9.widely 10.a 8
