脑化学物质。故选B。【6题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意:这里有一个可能的进化解释。A.solution解决方法;B.prediction预测;C.application应用;D.explanation解释。根据下文内容提示,可知此处是用人类的进化来作解释。故选D。【7题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意:人类作为社会性生物进化而来,它们群体合作以获得食物并保护自己免受野生动物的伤害。A.consume消费;B.serve服务;C.secure(尤指通过努力)获得;取得;D.purchase购买。根据下文“protectthemselvesfromwildanimals”可知,此处指人类通过群体合作来获得食物。故选C。【8题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意:我们与朋友和家人的密切关系网更快乐,因为这提高了我们生存的机会。A.fixed固定的;B.enormous巨大的;C.complicated复杂的;D.close亲近的;亲密的。结合下文“networkoffriendsandfamilybecausethisimprovedourchancesofsurvival.Butcloselysocializinggroups”可知,这里指和朋友及家人之间的亲密关系,提高了我们的生存机会。故选D。【9题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意:但是,密切社交的群体也是流感和感冒等呼吸道感染的滋生地,因此我们需要增加抗击这些疾病的基因的活性。A.functions功能;B.infections传染病;C.activities活动;D.systems系统。结合下文“suchasfluandcolds”可知,感冒和流感是传染病。故选B。【10题详解】考查动词短语词义辨析。句意:然而,对于那些与社会隔绝的人来说,传染病并不是什么大问题,帮助他们从身体伤害中恢复过来的基因可能会被优先考虑,而不是那些对抗疾病的基因。A.cutoff切断;B.takenover掌管;C.pickedout挑选出;D.madeup编造。结合上文“closelysocializinggroupsarealsobreedinggroundsforrespiratory(呼吸的) 9 suchasfluandcolds”及下文“infectiousdiseasewaslessofaproblem”可知,密切社交的群体也是流感和感冒等呼吸道感染的滋生地,因而若要没有传染病得问题,就要切断和社会的联系。故选A。第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,共15分)A阅读下列短文,根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个恰当的单词,在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。Afterearningamaster’sdegreein2016,HuangWenxiureturnedtoBaise,herhometown,

15.surveyed16.assistance17.Tohelp【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了各级政府不断努力减轻租房者的经济负担,特别是刚毕业的大学生。【14题详解】考查定语从句。句意:各级政府不断努力减轻租房者的经济负担,特别是刚毕业的大学生。分析可知,空处及之后的内容为定语从句,先行词为those,指人,在从句中作主语,所以此处用关系代词who,故填who。【15题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:MeadinAcademy的一份报告称,接受调查的大学毕业生更喜欢住在公司或火车站附近的公寓里,以方便他们上下班。分析句子可知,空处在that引导的宾语从句中作定语,修饰主语collegegraduates,从句的谓语prefer,动词survey和句子主语为动宾关系,所以此处用过去分词surveyed,故填surveyed。【16题详解】考查名词。句意:至于房租,大多数大学毕业生仍然需要父母的帮助,只有20%左右的大学毕业生自己付房租。空处在句中作动词need的宾语,所以用名词assistance,为不可数名词,故填assistance。【17题详解】考查非谓语。句意:为了帮助减轻年轻人的经济负担,许多政府和公司在房屋租赁方面给予了支持。分析句子可知,逗号前的所有内容在句中为目的状语,表示“政府和公司在房屋租赁方面给予支持”的目的,所有用不定式。因处于句首,所以首字母大写。故填Tohelp。C阅读下列短文,根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个恰当的单词,在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。Withthepopularityofcycling,manycitieshavecombinedtheirtourismcharacteristicstolaunchthemedroutes.Fromindoorexhibitions____18____outdoorconcertsandnightcyclingalongtheSouthCentralAxis(轴),aseriesofactivities____19____(introduce)nextmonthsothaturbanresidentscanenjoythemselves.AnofficialoftheChinaTourismAcademysaid,“Asmasstourismgrowsinpopularity,onlyhigh-qualityoutdoortourismproductscanattractvisitorsandtheintegrationofmicro-vacationproductswithoutdoorsportsproducts____20____(have)abroadspacefordevelopment.”【答案】18.to19.willbeintroduced
20.has##willhave【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。随着自行车运动的普及,许多城市结合自己的旅游特色开辟了主题路线。文章讲述了下个月即将要举行一系列活动,让市民可以尽情享受。【18题详解】考查介词。句意:从室内展览到户外音乐会,以及沿中南轴的夜间自行车活动,下个月将推出一系列活动,让市民可以尽情享受。固定结构:from...to...“从……到……”,结合句意,此处指从室内展览到户外音乐会,以及沿中南轴的夜间自行车活动,表示活动种类多。故填to。【19题详解】考查一般将来时的被动语态。句意:同上。空处在句中为谓语,结合空后“nextmonth”可知,时态为一般将来时;句子主语“aseriesofactivities”和动词“introduce”为动宾关系,所以此处用被动语态。故填willbeintroduced。【20题详解】考查时态。句意:“随着大众旅游的普及,只有高质量的户外旅游产品才能吸引游客,且将微型度假产品与户外运动产品相结合,(将会)具有广阔的发展空间。”分析句子可知,空处为and后的并列句中的谓语,结合句意,这里可以表示一般性事实,用一般现在时,也可以表示将来的情况,用一般将来时,主语是单数,所以空处可以用has/willhave,故填has/willhave。第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,38分)第一节(共14小题;每小题2分,共28分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。ABestGiftsforEveryTypeofMomDoyouwanttorewardMomwithNewYeargifts?Millionsofproductsareofferedonline,butdon’tgetscaredaway.Wehavedonetheworkforyoubyselectingbestgiftideasforeverytypeofmom.Justclick“Addtocart”toshowerMomwithlove.DaintyEarrings-BestfortheJewelryLoverMadefromsterlingsilver,theearringsarelightweightandperfectforeverydaywear.They’realsoidealforanyonewithsensitiveears.Amongthe8,000plusfive-starreviewers,AprilFarmerconfirm:this,saying,“Justabouteverymaterialirritates(刺激)myears,butIhavehadtheseinforthreemonthsnow-andnoirritation,nocolorchanging,orfadingofsilver.Ican’teventelltheyarein!”KSLunchBag-BestfortheWorkingMom

foreverydaywear.”(这款耳环由纯银制成,重量轻,非常适合日常佩戴。)可知,这款耳环适合日常佩戴。选项A错误;第三段中“thefashionableandfunctionalKSbaghasaninsulatedlining(隔热的内衬)thathelpskeepfoodandbeveragesfresh,andaninsidepocketthatholdsutensils.Plus,thesoft,lightweightdesignmakesiteasytobringanywhere.”(时尚和功能性的KS袋有一个绝缘衬里,有助于保持食品和饮料的新鲜,和一个内口袋,容纳器具。此外,软,轻便的设计使它很容易带到任何地方。)可知,KS袋有一个绝缘衬里,轻便的设计使得它易于携带,但并没有说它是银质的。选项B错误;根据倒数第二段中“TheBrevilleExpress,whichhasmorethan14,000five-starreviews,comesineitherblackorstainlesssteelsurfacesandoffersthesamedose-controlledgrinding(研磨)that’snormallyreservedforfancycoffeeshops.”(BrevilleExpress有超过14,000条五星级评论,它有黑色或不锈钢表面,并提供通常只有高档咖啡店才有的剂量控制研磨服务。)可知,TheBrevilleExpress可以提供剂量控制研磨服务,没有提及它可以快速研磨,选项C错误;根据最后一段中“idealforback,stomachandsidesleepers.”(对平睡,趴着睡和侧面睡的人而言是合适的。)可知,BeckhamPillows适合不同睡姿的人士。与文意一致,故选D。【23题详解】推理判断题。根据文章标题“BestGiftsforEveryTypeofMom”(最适合各种类型妈妈的礼物)可知,文章主要是面向给妈妈选礼物的顾客。故选B。BIt’sthegreenwallofherschoolswimmingpoolthatJillCravenremembersbest,asshefeltherteacher’shandonherhead,guidingherunderwater.“Youknowhowtimeslows?Goingunder.Watching...”shesays.ThiswasinPalmerstonNorth,whenshewasfive.Whileherthreeoldersiblingscouldswimhalfamileormore,shewoulddoanythingtoavoidswimminglessons.Inher20s,shemovedtoLondontopursueacareerinjournalism.Sheinsistedshehadneverfearedforhercareer,butshestillhadthislifelongfearofbeingunderwater.However,whensheretired,Cravenwasdiagnosedwithbreastcancer,andwasadvisedtoswimaspartofherrecovery.Stillfindingthefearundefeatable,shetookupwaterjogginginstead-liketreadingwater(踩水),butmoving-withafloatationaidaroundhermiddle.Shecouldgetherfeetofthebottomofthepoolforaquickdoggypaddle,butanythingmorewasbeyondher.Onedayatthepool,shesawagroupofchildrenhavingalesson.Itwasanindoorpool,niceandwarm,andthechildrenwerefiveorsix.“Ijustthought,it’stimetodothis,”shesays.“WhoknowswhatIlookedlike.Aneggbeater,”shecontinues.“Ididfivestrokes,orsix.Iwassoproudofmyself”.Thenalifeguardencouragedhertocontinueandtoldherhowtobreathe.Afriendgavehergoggles.HernieceJustinewalkedbesidethepoolclapping,andCravenfeltasifshehadwonagoldmedal.JustineboughtCravenlessonsforher69thbirthday.Beforelong,Cravenhadswumalengthwithherfaceinthewater.

述研究的过程及结论的得出,本文主要讲述了一项新的研究成果:你对自己的评价会影响你未来的行为。故选A。DPeoplewhothinkofthemselvesastough-mindedandrealistictendtotakeitforgrantedthathumannatureisselfishandthatlifeisastruggleinwhichonlythefittestmaysurvive.Accordingtothisphilosophy,thebasiclawbywhichpeoplemustlive,isthelawofthejungle.The“fittest”arethosewhocanbringtothestrugglesuperiorforce,superiorcunningandsuperiorruthlessness.Butweareentitledtoaskwhethertheruthlessnessofthetiger,thecunningofthefoxandtheobediencetothelawofthejungleare,intheirhumanapplications,actuallyevidenceofhumanfitnesstosurvive.Ifhumanbeingsaretopickuppointersonbehaviorfromtheloweranimals,aretherenotanimalsotherthanbeastsofpreyfromwhichwemightlearnlessonsinsurvival?Wemight,forexample,looktotherabbitorthedeeranddefinefitnesstosurviveassuperiorspeedinrunningawayfromourenemies.Wemightpointtotheearthwormorthemoleandattributetheirfitnesstosurvivetotheabilitytokeepoutofsightandoutoftheway.Ifwesimplylooktoanimalsinordertodefinewhatwemeanby“fitnesstosurvive”,thereisnolimittothesubhumansystemsofbehaviorthatwecanthinkup.Wemayemulateanyanimalbecausetheyhaveallobviouslysurvivedinonewayoranother.Wearestillentitledtoask,however,ifhumansurvivaldoesnotrevolvearoundadifferentkindoffitnessfromthatoftheloweranimals.Biologistsdistinguishbetweentwokindsofstruggleforsurvival.First,thereistheinterspecificstruggle,warfarebetweendifferentspeciesofanimals.Second,thereistheintraspecificstruggle,warfareamongmembersofasinglespecies.Agreatdealofevidenceinmodernbiologyindicatesthatthosespeciesthathavedevelopedelaboratemeansofintraspecificcompetitionoftenmakethemselvesunfitforinterspecificcompetition,andthatstrengthandfiercenessinfightingandkillingotheranimals,whetherininterspecificorintraspecificcompetition,haveneverbeenenoughinthemselvestoguaranteethesurvivalofaspecies.Ifwearegoingtotalkabouthumansurvival,oneofthefirstthingstodo,evenifwegrantthatpeoplemustfighttolive,istodistinguishbetweenthosequalitiesthatareusefulinfightingtheenvironmentandotherspeciesandthosequalitiesthatareusefulinfightingotherpeople.Therearealsocharacteristicsimportanttohumansurvivalthatdonotinvolvefighting.Cooperationisessentialtothesurvivalofmostlivingcreatures.Andhumanbeingsarethetalkinganimals.Anytheoryofhumansurvivalthatleavesthisfactoutofaccountisnomorescientificthanwouldbeatheoryofbeaversurvivalthatfailedtoconsidertheinterestingusesabeavermakesofitsteethandflattail.Letusseewhattalkingmeans.

(如果我们只是看动物来定义我们所说的“适者生存”,那么我们可以想出的非人类的行为系统是没有限制的。)可知,我们不应只是看动物来定义“适者生存”。划线词后内容“becausetheyhaveallobviouslysurvivedinonewayoranother.”(因为它们显然都以这样或那样的方式幸存了下来。)可知,动物们以自己的方式生存下来证实了适者生存的道理,所以我们应该不仅只是看动物来定义“适者生存”,而且要模仿它们,让自己生存下来。由此可知,划线词所在句指“我们会模仿动物来让自己生存下来”,所以划线词的含义为“模仿”,故选A。【33题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“Wearestillentitledtoask,however,ifhumansurvivaldoesnotrevolvearoundadifferentkindoffitnessfromthatoftheloweranimals.”(然而,我们仍然有权问,人类的生存是否围绕着一种不同于低等动物的适应性。)和倒数第二段“Ifwearegoingtotalkabouthumansurvival,oneofthefirstthingstodo,evenifwegrantthatpeoplemustfighttolive,istodistinguishbetweenthosequalitiesthatareusefulinfightingtheenvironmentandotherspeciesandthosequalitiesthatareusefulinfightingotherpeople.Therearealsocharacteristicsimportanttohumansurvivalthatdonotinvolvefighting.”(如果我们要谈论人类的生存,首先要做的事情之一,即使我们承认人类必须为生存而战,就是区分那些有助于对抗环境和其他物种的品质,和那些有助于对抗其他人的品质。还有一些对人类生存非常重要的特征不涉及战斗。)和最后一段前两句“Cooperationisessentialtothesurvivalofmostlivingcreatures.Andhumanbeingsarethetalkinganimals.”(合作对于大多数生物的生存是必不可少的,而人类是会说话的动物。)可知,作者认为,人类的生存不同于其他物种之间的生存的适应性,因为人类能区分那些有助于对抗环境和其他物种的品质,和那些有助于对抗其他人的品质。还有一些对人类生存非常重要的特征并不涉及战斗,此外人类是会说话的动物。即人类不必向动物学习才能生存,故选C。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Cooperationisessentialtothesurvivalofmostlivingcreatures.Andhumanbeingsarethetalkinganimals.Anytheoryofhumansurvivalthatleavesthisfactoutofaccountisnomorescientificthanwouldbeatheoryofbeaversurvivalthatfailedtoconsidertheinterestingusesabeavermakesofitsteethandflattail.Letusseewhattalkingmeans.”(合作对大多数生物的生存至关重要。人类是会说话的动物。任何不考虑这一事实的人类生存理论都不会比海狸生存理论更科学,因为后者没有考虑到海狸利用牙齿和扁尾巴的有趣用途。让我们看看说话是什么意思。)可知,本段结尾提到了人类会通过沟通获得合作,因此接下来可能谈论的是人们如何通过沟通来实现合作。故选B。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)

【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章谈论了娱乐恐惧的科学。【35题详解】根据上文“researchshowsthatrecreationalfearcanteachustofacescarysituations.The“paradoxofhorror”isthatbeingscared,undertherightcircumstances,canbefun.”(研究表明娱乐恐惧可以教会我们面对可怕的情况。“恐怖悖论”是,在适当的情况下,害怕可能是件有趣的事)提出“恐怖悖论”在适当的情况下,害怕可能是件有趣的事。因而空处应承接前文,讲述娱乐恐惧也是有好处的。选项C.“Andrecreationalfear,asitisrightlynamed,couldbenefitus,too”(而娱乐性的恐惧,正如它的名字一样,也可以使我们受益)切题。故选C。【36题详解】根据上文“Andinonesurveyofmorethan1,000Americans,conductedbyClasen,55%describedthemselvesashorrorfans.”(在克拉森对1000多名美国人进行的一项调查中,55%的人称自己是恐怖片迷。)讲述了克拉森的一项调查的结果,下文“Manypeoplewhowouldnotconsiderthemselvesfansoffearenjoytrue-crimepodcastsandnovelsfeaturingviolenceandmurder.Othersmayenjoynaturedocumentariesabouttoppredators(捕食性动物)suchassharksandbears.”(许多不认为自己是恐惧迷的人喜欢真实犯罪的播客和以暴力和谋杀为主题的小说。其他人可能喜欢关于顶级掠食者如鲨鱼和熊的自然纪录片)提到了其他人的喜欢类型,所以空处应承接上文,讲述结果发现,喜欢恐怖并不是唯一的一种类型。选项E.“Horror,though,isnottheonlygenreofwhatpeoplefindscaryfun,hesaid.”(然而,他说,恐怖并不是人们觉得恐怖有趣的唯一类型)切题。故选E。【37题详解】上文“Evenbabieslikebeingalittlespooked(惊的).Peek-a-boois“aninfantjumpscare,”Clasensaid.”(即使是婴儿也喜欢被吓到,躲猫猫是“一种婴儿的跳跃恐惧”,Clasen说)下文““Idon’tthinkI’veyetcomeacrossapersonwhodidnotenjoysomekindofrecreationalfear,”hesaid.”(“我想我还没有遇到过一个人不喜欢某种娱乐性的恐惧,”他说)所以空处应其承上启下的作用,讲述“捉迷藏”游戏也有着恐惧的因素。选项G.“Classicchildhoodgamesoftagandhide-and-seekarejustliketherealscenesofpredatorvs.prey.”(经典的儿童捉迷藏游戏就像捕食者与猎物的真实场景。)切题。故选G。【38题详解】结合前一段的末句““Idon’tthinkI’veyetcomeacrossapersonwhodidnotenjoysomekindofrecreationalfear,”hesaid.”(“我想我还没有遇到过一个人不喜欢某种娱乐性的恐惧,”他说)说明人们都喜欢娱乐性的恐惧。下文“Itisacombinationofanadrenaline(肾上腺素)rushandanopportunitytolearnaboutdealingwithscarysituationsinasafeenvironment,
researcherssay.”(研究人员说,这是肾上腺素激增和学习如何在安全环境中处理可怕情况的机会的结合)解释了人们喜欢娱乐性恐惧的原因。因而空处应承接前文,讲述为什么人们会喜欢的问题。选项A.“Sowhydowelikeit?”(那我们为什么喜欢它?)切题。故选A。【39题详解】根据上文“Onestudyexaminedhow262adultsfeltbeforeandaftertheyenteredanextremehauntedhouse.”(一项研究调查了262名成年人在进入一个极度闹鬼的房子前后的感受)空处应承接前文,讲述调查的结果。选项B.“Fiftypercentofpeoplesaidtheyfeltbetterafterthevisit.”(百分之五十的人说他们在参观后感觉好多了)切题。故选B。第三部分:书面表达(共两节,32分)第一节(共4小题;第40、41小题各2分,第42小题3分,第43小题5分,共12分)阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。Engaginginmeaningfulconversationswithothersstrengthenssocialbondsandboostswell—beingfarmorethansmalltalkdoes.Yetmanypeoplefearorevenactivelyavoidintimate(亲密的)conversations,especiallywiththosetheydon’tknowwell.Whyarewesounwillingtoengageinanactivitythatcouldbenefitussoacutely?Accordingtonewresearch,itmaybeduetomiscalculatedexpectations,andchangingthemcouldfosterdeeperconnections.InaseriesofstudiespublishedintheJournalofPersonalityandSocialPsychology,participantseitherengagedin“shallow”conversations(speaking,forexample,abouttheirsleepscheduleorhowoftentheygethaircuts)or“deep”discussions(coveringembarrassingmomentsorwhatthey’regratefulfor).Beforechatting,theypredictedhowawkwardanduncomfortabletheconversationwouldbe,howclosetheywouldfeeltotheirconversationpartnerafterward,andhowmuchtheywouldenjoytheinteraction.Participantswhoconsistentlyoverestimatedtheawkwardnessoftheconversationsalsogreatlyunderestimatedhowmuchthey’denjoythemoreintimateconversations,aswellashowclosethey’dfeeltotheirpartner.Thenoticeabledifferencebetweenparticipants’expectationsandtheiractualexperienceseemedrootedintheassumptionthatconversationpartnerswouldn’tcareaboutthedetailsoftheirlives.“Weunderestimate,essentially,howsocialothersare,”explainsstudyauthorNicholasEpley,apsychologistattheUniversityofChicago.Suchanassumptioncouldbeabarriertoformingdeeperconnectionswithothers,Epleybelieves.Yetparticipantsappearedabletocourse-correct.Whentheyweretoldaheadoftimethatit’scommontounderestimatehowmuchstrangerscareabouteachother,theyvoluntarilysteeredthetalksintodeeperdirections,potentiallyreapingthebenefitsofdoingso.Asinglereminderlikelyisn’tenoughtopermanentlychangemiscalculatedassumptions,Epleywarns.Butmakingtheefforttoengageinjustafewpositiveinteractionscouldhelpsomeone

间的显著差异似乎植根于这样一种假设,即交谈对象不会关心他们生活中的细节。)第四段第一句“Suchanassumptioncouldbeabarriertoformingdeeperconnectionswithothers,Epleybelieves.”(Epley认为,这样的假设可能会成为与他人建立更深层次联系的障碍。)可知,阻碍人们与他人建立更深层次联系在于参与者交谈之前的一种假设,即交谈对象不会关心他们生活中的细节。故答案为:Itistheassumptionsthatconversationpartnerswouldn’tcareaboutthedetailsoftheirlives.【42题详解】考查推理判断题。根据最后一段前两句“Asinglereminderlikelyisn’tenoughtopermanentlychangemiscalculatedassumptions,Epleywarns.Butmakingtheefforttoengageinjustafewpositiveinteractionscouldhelpsomeonementallyreset.”(Epley警告说,仅仅一个提醒可能不足以永久改变错误的假设。但是,努力参与一些积极的互动可以帮助人们在精神上重置。)可知,仅仅一个提醒可能不足以永久改变错误的假设。所以给出句子中“Asingleremindercanpermanentlychangeourassumptions”(一个简单的提醒就可以永久地改变我们的假设)与文意不符,故答案为:Asingleremindercanpermanentlychangeourassumptions,butwestillneedtoengageinpositiveinteractionstohelpusmentallyreset.Accordingtothepassage,asinglereminderisn’tenoughtopermanentlychangemiscalculatedassumptions,butwestillneedtoengageinpositiveinteractionstohelpusmentallyreset.【43题详解】开放题,言之有理即可。根据文章第二段中“InaseriesofstudiespublishedintheJournalofPersonalityandSocialPsychology,participantseitherengagedin“shallow”conversations(speaking,forexample,abouttheirsleepscheduleorhowoftentheygethaircuts)or“deep”discussions(coveringembarrassingmomentsorwhatthey’regratefulfor).”(在《个性与社会心理学杂志》上发表的一系列研究中,参与者要么进行“浅谈”的谈话(例如,谈论他们的睡眠时间表或者他们多久剪一次头发),要么进行“深入”的讨论(讨论尴尬的时刻或者他们感激的事情)。)第三段第一句“Thenoticeabledifferencebetweenparticipants’expectationsandtheiractualexperienceseemedrootedintheassumptionthatconversationpartnerswouldn’tcareaboutthedetailsoftheirlives.”(参与者的期望和他们的实际经历之间的显著差异似乎植根于这样一种假设,即交谈对象不会关心他们生活中的细节。)第四段第一句“Suchanassumptioncouldbeabarriertoformingdeeperconnectionswithothers,Epleybelieves.”(Epley认为,这样的假设可能会成为与他人建立更深层次联系的障碍。)可知,在交谈前,人们都会做一个假设,即交谈对象不会关心他们生活中的细节,这个假设的建立会阻碍我们进行深入的交谈。说明“浅谈”不会涉及一个人的生活细节等隐私问题,所以我更喜欢浅显易懂的谈话,因为我们需要遵守社交礼仪,这样才不会让别人觉得被冒犯了。此外,人们的性格不同,所以尊重他们的界限,避免他们可能视为隐私的信息是礼貌和体贴的。故答案为:Iprefertohaveashallowconversationbecausethereissocialetiquettethatwe
needtoobserveinordernottomakeothersfeeloffended.Besides,peopledifferinpersonalitiessoitispoliteandconsideratetorespecttheirboundariesandavoidinformationtheymightviewasprivacy.(48words)第二节(20分)44.假设你是红星中学高三学生李华。你校将与国际友好校联合举办主题为“我是美食家(Gastronome)”的英语线上交流活动,请你用英语写一份发言稿,内容包括:1.介绍你学会的一道美食并简述做法;2.谈谈学做这道美食的感受及活动的意义。注意:1.词数100左右;2.开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数。提示词语:美食—delicacy;Hello,everyone!________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________That’sall.Thankyou.【答案】Hello,everyone.I’mverydelightedtosharewithyouatraditionalChinesedelicacyI’velearnedtomakefrommyparents,dumplings.AsoneofthemosticonicdishesinChinesecuisine,dumplingsareshapedlikesilveringots,representingwealth.Whenmakingdumplings,youneedtowrapthefillingsmadeofvegetables,meatorseafoodwiththinpiecesofdough.Aftertheyaremade,youneedtoputthemintoboilingwatertogetthemwellcooked.Makingdumplingsrequiresteamworkandpatience.Itisalsorewardingtospendtimeworkingwithfamilymembers.ThisonlinesharingoffersmeachancetounderstandourChinesefoodculturebetter.HopeyoucantryityourselfandI’mexpectingtoappreciatedelicaciesfromyourculture.That’sall.Thankyou.(120words)【解析】【导语】这是一篇应用文。要求考生用英语写一份发言稿,介绍一道美食并简述做法,同时谈谈学做这道美食的感受及学校举办这次活动的意义。【详解】1.词汇积累
