【解析】

本文是一篇說明文，很多人有好點子，但是不知道如何把好點子變成偉大的發(fā)明，文章中對此提出了幾點建議。

【1】根據(jù)本段第一句可知很多人有很棒的想法認(rèn)為自己的想法會成為偉大的發(fā)明，但是不知道該如何去做。橫線句要把上下文串聯(lián)起來，F項“Herearesomestepsthatyoucantake下面是你可以采取的步驟”承上啟下，把本段第一句和文章下面的內(nèi)容連接在一起。

【2】本段告訴我們首先要對自己的發(fā)明項目進(jìn)行研究，查看是否已經(jīng)有人已經(jīng)發(fā)明出類似的物品。如果沒有，查一下相關(guān)的專利情況。如果沒有類似的專利被申請，那么你就可以繼續(xù)做下一步工作。故B項“Ifnot， gotothenextstep”符合上下文語境。

【3】根據(jù)橫線前句One agencythatisveryreputable（聲譽(yù)好的）is "LambertinMinnesota"可知"LambertinMinnesota"是一家聲譽(yù)非常好的代理機(jī)構(gòu)。本句應(yīng)該介紹這一結(jié)構(gòu)的良好服務(wù)，故G項“Theyofferfreeadviceforgoodideas他們會為好點子提供免費(fèi)服務(wù)”與之對應(yīng)。

【4】橫線前句可知你和代理機(jī)構(gòu)聯(lián)系好了以后，你要帶著模型以及對這個好點子的敘述。最好是把你的想法寫下來，然后與對方交流。故E項“Writedownexactlyaboutyourinvention．”與上下文語境一致。

【5】橫線前句告訴我們?nèi)绻愕陌l(fā)明被某一公司購買，那么你只要等待發(fā)明給你帶來的好處即可。雖然等待的時間可能會比較長，但這樣的等待是值得的。故A項“Itmaytakeayearortwo”符合上下文語境。

本文設(shè)空在段尾。我們可以從以下七點考慮：
(1)空白前的一句或兩句是重點語句，重點閱讀以鎖定關(guān)鍵詞。
(2)通常是結(jié)論、概括性語句。注意在選項中查找表示結(jié)果、結(jié)論、總結(jié)等的信號詞，如therefore, as a result, thus, hence, in short, to sum up, to conclude, in a word等詞語，選項中也可發(fā)現(xiàn)前文的同義詞句。
(3)與前文是轉(zhuǎn)折或?qū)Ρ汝P(guān)系。此時要注意在選項中查找表示轉(zhuǎn)折、對比的關(guān)聯(lián)詞，同時注意選項中所講內(nèi)容是否與前文在同一主題上形成對立、對比關(guān)系。
(4)與前文是并列或排比關(guān)系。在這種情況下，通常是該段落要求補(bǔ)全說明本段主題的其他細(xì)節(jié)，因此
根據(jù)段落一致性原則，在原文和選項中找到相關(guān)的特征詞，通常在選項中會出現(xiàn)表示并列/遞進(jìn)關(guān)系的關(guān)聯(lián)詞或與前文類似的句式結(jié)構(gòu)，或出現(xiàn)同義詞等其他信號線索。前面的一句與正確答案的第一句是緊密相連的。要特別注意閱讀這樣相連的兩句，通常會找到關(guān)鍵的線索詞句。
(5)所選答案是引出下一段的內(nèi)容。如果在選項中找不出與前文之間的關(guān)聯(lián)，此時可考慮與下一段開頭是否有一定的銜接。認(rèn)真閱讀下一段開頭幾句，看是否與選項的最后一句緊密連接起來。
(6)如果第一段的段尾是空白，要認(rèn)真閱讀，看此處是細(xì)節(jié)還是主題。通常文章第一段要提出文章的主題，如果在段尾提出主題，會用一些信號詞如轉(zhuǎn)折詞引出來，正確答案中應(yīng)有這樣的特征詞。

【題目】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. Write your answer on the answer sheet.

When we wake up feeling sleepy and with dark circles under eyes, many of us often think: “I’m going to go to bed earlier tomorrow!” But however determined we are, chances are that we don’t stick to our promise. This behavior is called “bedtime procrastination(拖延癥)”.

According to a study carried out by a group of health psychologists at Utrecht University in the Netherlands in 2014, bedtime procrastination is a common problem. In their study, 53 percent of the 2,400 participants said they didn’t follow their sleep schedule, delaying it at least twice a week.

It’s found that they delayed bedtime not because they liked to stay up late, but they couldn’t stop doing other unimportant things, which were keeping them up in the first place.

“People who generally have trouble resisting temptations and sticking to their intentions are more likely to delay going to bed.” Floor Kroese, a psychologist at Utrecht University, further explained to HuffPost.

Yet, according to scientists, lack of self-control is not the only thing to blame. Our body clock also plays an important role when it comes to bed time. In order to check the influence of the body clock on sleep, psychologists at Ulm University in Germany studied the sleep patterns of 108 people in February. It was found that those who get up late are more likely to postpone their bedtime than those who wake early every morning.

“The intention to go to bed earlier is not enough,” Jane Kuhnel, a psychologist at Ulm University, concluded in Popular Science. “Biological processes need to support this intention.”

People always think that bedtime procrastination isn’t a big problem, but as Kroese told Popular Science, “the choices we make that affect out sleep could turn out to be pretty important for our health.”

【題目】 “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” Eleanor Roosevelt once said. If we want to accomplish anything in life, let us remember that we should never give up.

Viennese - born composer Frederick Loewe, whom we remember from his musical scores that include My Fair Lady, Gigi and Camelot, was not always famous. He learned to play the piano with the great masters of Europe and achieved huge success as a musician and composer in his early years.

But when he immigrated to the United States, he failed as a pianist. For a while he tried other types of work. But he never gave up his dream and continued to play the piano and write music. During those years, he could not always afford to make ends meet by playing the piano.

One day, bent over the keyboard, he heard nothing but the music that he played with inspiration. When he finished and looked up, he was surprised to find that he had an audience - three men who were seated on the floor. They said nothing and made no movement toward the piano. Instead they dug into their pockets, took out all the money they had, placed it on the piano and walked out, empty-handed. Deeply touched by the beauty of his music, these men recognized excellence and responded to it.

Whatever you do, try your best. If what you do is worth doing and if you believe that who you are is of value, then you cannot afford to be content with mediocrity (平庸). When you choose the path of excellence through this life, you will bring out the best in yourself and receive the best it can offer in return.

【1】What can we learn from Roosevelt’s words?

A.It is difficult to do our best.

B.It is important to be successful in life.

C.We should be strict with ourselves.

D.We should face the future with the most dreams.

【2】What happened to Frederick Loewe after he immigrated to America?

A.He lost his hearing.B.He led a hard life for a while.

C.He enjoyed great success.D.He became a famous pianist.

【3】Why did the three men pay Frederick?

A.They were supposed to do that.B.They wanted to show their sympathy.

C.They were moved by his performance.D.They wanted to make friends with him.

【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

A.Practice makes perfect.B.Never give up your dream.

C.It’s never too old to learn.D.Rome was not built in a day.

【題目】Asia’s mountain glaciers (冰川) will lose at least a third of their mass through global warming by the century’s end, with serious consequences for millions of people who rely on them for fresh water, researchers have said. The high mountains of Asia consist of a geographical region surrounding the Tibetan Plateau, holding the biggest store of frozen water outside the poles. It feeds many of the world’s great rivers, including the Ganges, the Indus and the Yarlung Zangbo River, on which hundreds of millions of people depend.

Nearly 200 nations adopted the Paris Agreement in 2015, which sets the goal of limiting warming to a level of “well below” 2°C, while “pursuing efforts” to achieve a lower ceiling of 1.5°C. Earth’s surface has already warmed by about 1°C, according to scientists.

The Asian high mountains, the new study said, were already warming more rapidly than the global average. A global temperature rise of 1.5°C would mean an average increase in the region of about 2.1°C, with differences between mountain ranges - all of which will warm by more than 1.5°C. The Hindu Kush mountain range would warm by about 2.3°C and the eastern Himalaya Mountains by 1.9°C, the study forecast.

“Even if temperatures stabilize at their current level, (glacier) mass loss will continue for decades to come,” the researchers added. “For the high mountain glaciers to survive, it is vital to reduce the global temperature increase to the lowest possible level.”

A study in July in the journal Nature Climate Change said there was only a 5% chance of holding global warming under 2°C. For 1.5°C, the chance was about 1%. On current trends, some experts project Earth is on track to warm by about 3°C.

【1】What is stressed about Asia’s mountain glaciers in the first paragraph?

A. The reason for its melting.

B. Its importance.

C. Its geographical condition.

D. The consequences caused by its decrease.

【2】What do we know about the temperature on the earth’s surface?

A. It keeps up its normal level.

B. It has risen too much since the Paris Agreement was made.

C. It is far below the level that the Paris Agreement demands.

D. It is near the lower ceiling that the Paris Agreement demands.

【3】How may we guarantee these glaciers, continued existence, according to researchers?

A. Hold global warming under 2°C.

B. Try to save water as much as we can.

C. Keep global temperature increase to a minimum.

D. Make the global temperature stable at its current level.

【4】How does the author develop the passage?

A. Giving examples. B. Describing.

C. Presenting data. D. Comparing.

【題目】SummaryWriting

Sociologists have long recognized that organization of less than 200individuals can operate through the free flow of information among the members.Once their size goes beyond this figure, the organizations are getting lessflexible. So it seems necessary to prevent total disorder resulting fromfailures of communication.

One solution to this problem would, of course, be tostructure large organizations into smaller units of a size that can act as agroup. By allowing these groups to build reliance on each other, largerorganizations can be built up. However, merely having groups of, say, 150 willnever of itself be a complete solution to the problems of the organization.Something else is needed: the people involved must be able to build directpersonal relationships. To allow free flow of information, they have to be ableto communicate with each other in a casual way. Maintaining too formal astructure of relationships inevitably prevents the way a system works.

The importance of this was drawn to my attention twoyears ago by the case of a TV station. Whether by chance or by design, it sohappened that there were almost exactly 150 people in the station. The wholeprocess worked very smoothly as an organization for many years until they weremoved into purpose-built accommodation. Then, for no apparent reason, the workseemed to be more difficult to do, not to say less satisfying.

It was some time before they work out what the problemwas. It turn out that, when the architects were designing the new building,they decided that the coffee room where everyone ate their sandwiches at lunchtimes was an unnecessary luxury and so did away with it. And with that, theyaccidentally destroyed the close social networks that strengthened the wholeorganization. What had apparently been happening was that, as people gatheredinformally over their sandwiches in the coffee room, useful information wascasually being exchanged.
