Wewerehopeless.Nothingcouldsaveus.Ifeltsick,asifIwasfallingfromamountaintopinadream.(随着风浪，我们正朝着漩涡的方向前进。我们绝望了。什么也救不了我们。我感到恶心，就像在梦中从山顶上掉下来一样)”可推知，当作者朝着漩涡的方向前进时感到绝望。故选B。【43题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Isawclearlythattherewereotherobjectsinthewhirlpool—treesandbarrels(桶),Afterawhile,Ibecamecuriousaboutthewhirlpoolitself.Ithenmadethreeimportantobservations.Thefirst,thelargerthebodieswere,themorerapidlytheyfell;thesecond,betweentwoobjectsofequalextent(程度),roundobjectsfelldownlessrapidly;andthethird,betweentwoobjectsofthesamesize,objectsshapedlikeatubefelldownmoreslowly.SoItiedmyselftoabarreltohelpmefloat,Itriedtomakemybrotherunderstand,buthewastoofrightenedandstayedintheheavyboat.(我清楚地看到漩涡里还有其他物体——树和桶。过了一会儿，我对漩涡本身产生了好奇。然后我做了三个重要的观察。首先，躯体越大，坠落得越快；第二种情况是，在两个距离相等的物体之间，圆形物体下落的速度较慢；第三种情况是，在两个同样大小的物体之间，形状像管子的物体下降得更慢。于是，我把自己绑在一个木桶上，帮助自己漂浮起来。我试图让我哥哥明白，但他太害怕了，呆在沉重的船上)”可知，作者将自己绑在木桶上的原因是因为根据作者的观察木桶下落的速度要慢得多。故选C。【44题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第三段“SoItiedmyselftoabarreltohelpmefloat,Itriedtomakemybrotherunderstand,buthewastoofrightenedandstayedintheheavyboat.Withoutwaiting,Ijumpedintotheseatotryandescape.(我试图让我哥哥明白，但他太害怕了，呆在沉重的船上。没有等待，我跳进海里试图逃跑)”可推知，作者的哥哥非常惊慌害怕。故选A。【45题详解】推理判断题。推理判断题。根据第一段“All at once, the sky was covered with dark clouds and in less than a minute we were in a terrible storm. (突然，天空乌云密布，不到一分钟，我们就陷入了可怕的暴风雨中)”可知，大自然变幻莫测，结合下文作者在漩涡边缘逃离的惊险经历可知，大自然也是可怕，值得我们敬畏的。但同时大自然又给我们人类提供了耐以生存的环境，比如文章提到的在大海捕的鱼细节，鱼可以为人类提供食物。综上所述可知，文章旨在告诉我们人类必须尊重自然、适应自然和保护自然。故选D。CTwentyyearsago,theideaofsharingourlivessoopenlywiththeworldwasunheardof.However,foryoungpeopletodayitisconsideredcompletelynormaltosharepicturesoftheirlivesandinteractonlineeveryday.Fansofsocialmediapointoutthattheworldhasneverbeensoconnectedasithasallowedpeopletomakefriends,learn

(在浏览社交媒体时，人们经常会看到展示美丽假期、有趣派对和时尚服装的照片和故事。人们很少发布负面报道或不良图片，因此可能会产生误导。对于那些看着这些照片并将其与自己的生活进行比较的人来说，他们最终可能会感到悲伤和沮丧。相比之下，他们可能认为自己的生活更糟糕。)”可知，当人们在比较别人帖子中的美好生活时会感到沮丧。故选A项。【49题详解】词句猜测题。由文章最后一段“Wedon’thavetodisconnectfromtheInternettoliveahappylife,butweshouldrealisethatthepicturesweseeandstorieswereadareonlypartofabiggerpicture.Ifwecandothat,wecanprotectourselvesandenjoyourlives.(我们不必为了过上幸福的生活而与互联网断开连接，但我们应该意识到，。如果我们能做到这一点，我们就能保护自己，享受我们的生活。)”可知，划线部分应指我们在互联网上看到或阅读的内容并不完全代表现实世界。故选D项。【50题详解】推理判断题。由文章最后一段“Therealityisthatsocialmediaisapartofmodernlifeanditisnotgoingtogoaway.Thisresearchshowsusthatitisimportanttofindabalancebetweenouronlineandofflinelives.Wedon’thavetodisconnectfromtheInternettoliveahappylife,butweshouldrealisethatthepicturesweseeandstorieswereadareonlypartofabiggerpicture.Ifwecandothat,wecanprotectourselvesandenjoyourlives.(现实是，社交媒体是现代生活一部分，它不会消失。这项研究向我们表明，在我们的线上和线下生活之间找到平衡是很重要的。我们不必为了过上幸福的生活而与互联网断开连接，但我们应该意识到，我们看到的图片和读到的故事只是更大图景的一部分。如果我们能做到这一点，我们就能保护自己，享受我们的生活。)”以及上文可知，本文介绍了一种社会问题和现象，那就是社交媒体的日益流行对人们生活的影响越来越大。作者通过写这篇文章来提供一些使用社交媒体的建议，提醒人们要用正确的心态对待社交媒体所展示的内容。故选A项。DTheProgrammeforInternationalStudentAssessment(PISA)isaworldwidestudyof15-year-oldschoolpupils’scholastic(学业的)performanceinmathematics,science,andreadingundertakenbytheOECD(经济合作与发展组织).Acloserlookatthereadingtests,showstheinterestingfactthatgirlsareoutperformingboysinreadingandthatthisisassociatedwithgirls’greaterenjoymentofreading.Onekeyareawhichhasamajorimpactonreadingperformance,isreadingforenjoymentratherthansimplyforstudyorschoolworkpurposes.Interestingly,thePISAstudyfoundthatinallcountriesassessed(apartfromSouthKorea),girlsreadforenjoymentmorethanboys.Thestudyfoundthatinallthecountriesassessed,justoverhalfofboys(52%),butalmostthree-quartersofgirls(73%)saidthattheyreadforenjoymentwhichmaycomeasasurprisetomany.

countriestwointhreeboysonlyreadnewspapersforpleasureprovesthatthereisworktobedone.(各国需要考虑如何激发男孩对阅读的兴趣，并确保他们从小就接触到各种不同类型的文学作品。考虑到在经合组织国家中，三分之二的男孩只是为了娱乐而读报纸，这证明了我们还有很多工作要做)”可知，对于男孩的阅读兴趣方面，作者认为还有很多工作去做。由此推知，作者对于男孩的阅读兴趣现状感到担忧。故选C。【55题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“TheProgrammeforInternationalStudentAssessment(PISA)isaworldwidestudyof15-year-oldschoolpupils’scholastic(学业的)performanceinmathematics,science,andreadingundertakenbytheOECD(经济合作与发展组织).Acloserlookatthereadingtests,showstheinterestingfactthatgirlsareoutperformingboysinreadingandthatthisisassociatedwithgirls’greaterenjoymentofreading.(国际学生评估项目(PISA)是经合组织(OECD)对15岁小学生在数学、科学和阅读方面的学术表现进行的一项全球性研究。仔细观察阅读测试，会发现一个有趣的事实，即女孩在阅读方面的表现优于男孩，这与女孩更喜欢阅读有关)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了男孩和女孩在阅读习惯方面的差别。由此可知，DoBoysandGirlsHaveDifferentReadingHabits?(男孩和女孩有不同的阅读习惯吗？)适合作本文最佳标题。故选C。第Ⅱ卷注意事项：1．用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上。2．本卷共6题，共35分。第三部分：写作第一节：阅读下面短文，按照要求用英语回答问题。阅读表达Advertisingisallaroundusanditseemstohavebecomeanunavoidablepartofourlife.DigitalmarketingexpertsestimatethatmostAmericansmaybeexposedtoaround4,000to10,000advertisementsaday.Youmaythinkyouwillneverfallforanadandbepersuadedtobuysomething,butreadthearticlefirstbeforeyoudecide!Whiledirecthard-selladsmightbeeasytodetect—suchasthoseforproductsendorsed(宣传)bycelebrities—soft-selladsmaybemoredifficulttospot.Onesuchmethodadvertisersuseistomakecustomersbelievethereisanimmediateneedtobuytheproductusingwordsorphrasessuchashurry,actnow,lastchance,nowornever.Thesearenottheonlymethods,ofcourse.Othermethodsincludegivingawaysamplesandsponsorshipofevents,Infact,therearemanymethodswhichworkfordifferentproductsindifferentplaces.GillianGreene,CreativeDirectorofCheesyBee,anadvertisingagencyinLondon,confirmsthis,statingtheiradvertsaretailor-made(特制的)accordingtothesituation.Notalladsaredirectedtowardstheendcustomer.Advertisingagencieswillmakeadvertswiththeinvestors(投资人)andshopownersinmind.Animpressiveandexpensiveadmaysignaltotheinvestorsthattheadagency

by”替换该短语。故答案为bedeceivedby。【58题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段第二句话“Onesuchmethodadvertisersuseistomakecustomersbelievethereisanimmediateneedtobuytheproductusingwordsorphrasessuchashurry,actnow,lastchance,nowornever.(广告商使用的一种方法是让客户相信他们迫切需要购买产品，使用诸如“抓紧时间”、“立即行动”、“最后一次机会”、“现在或永远不要”等词语或短语)”可推知，广告商通过一些误导性的语言来让消费者购买产品。故答案为Bymisleadingwordsthatappearintheads.【59题详解】主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了在这个现代世界中到处可见广告，人们很难不受到广告的影响。故答案为Itishardnottobeinfluencedbyads.【60题详解】开放题。本题是开放题，言之有理即可，答案不唯一。题干为：你认为广告有必要吗？为什么？首先回答觉得广告是有必要的，并陈述自己的理由。可回答“认为广告是有必要的，原因为能够让我们快速了解新产品”。故答案为Ithinkadvertisingisnecessarybecauseitallowsustolearnaboutnewproductsquickly.第二节：书面表达(满分25分)61.假设你是晨光中学校学生会主席李津。你校正在举办主题为“EducationforInnovation”(创新教育)的英文演讲比赛，并将于11月12日上午9点到12点在校报告厅(lecturehall)进行决赛，请你代表学生会邀请外教Mr.Johnson出任决赛评委(judge)，内容应包括以下要点：(1)比赛背景(自10月份开始，经过两轮比赛，100多名选手中12名进入了决赛)；(2)比赛规则(每名选手5分钟演讲时间)；(3)评委要求(听取所有选手演讲，记录优缺点，和其他评委商议后决定名次)。注意：(1)词数不少于100；(2)可适当加入细节，使内容充实、行文连贯；(3)开头已为你写好，不计入词数。DearMr.Johnson,Ｉamwritingonbehalfoftheschool’sStudentUnion.
