You'll find it amazing to support people when you go out to eat! Just look for
restaurants that hire people with disabilities, which are making the world a more
inclusive place.Each bakery, cafe, and restaurant below has a wonderful and
heartwarming story.
Hugs Cafe: McKinney, Texas
Ruth Thompson once had a vision to create a nonprofit cafe that would be
run and operated primarily by adults with special needs.With hard work, a strong
passion and an amazing team, Hugs Cafe opened its doors in 2015.“Hugs Cafe is now
so much more than a job to our 23 teammates, which is enhancing the meaningful lives
of adults with special needs through training and employment at Hugs Cafe.” Thompson
says.
Vinny & Bay's Coffee and Eatery: Panama City, Florida
“A lot of people around plan their vacations coming to this coffee shop，”
says the cafe owner Kara Rigby.Vinny & Bay's Coffee and Eatery was established “so
that Baylee had a place to work” , Rigby adds.Baylee is Rigby's daughter's friend
who has a disability.The coffee shop's goal is to become a training spot for
individuals like Baylee.Some workers have even started at Vinny & Bay's and were able
to work in a regular workplace.Rigby says that her employees “have a whole lot more
abilities than disabilities.They love their work unconditionally, and it changes the
whole environment and business”. Rigby believes that incorporating even just one
or two disabled individuals into a business can change the whole atmosphere—for the
better!
Sugar Plum Bakery: Virginia Beach, Virginia
Head to Sugar Plum Bakery to find a delicious carrot cake and see people with
disabilities successfully working alongside nondisabled workers.Sugar Plum has been

developmental disabilities by providing training and employment opportunities”可
知，三个餐厅都为残障人士提供了培训和就业服务。
22．It can be known from the passage that ________.
A．Hugs Cafe was set up in 1987 and now has 23 teammates
B．Rigby founded her coffee shop to help Baylee, her daughter
C．disabled individuals are not able to work in a regular workplace

B
Clara Daly was seated on an Alaska Airlines flight from Boston to Los Angeles
when a flight attendant asked an urgent question over the loudspeaker:“Does anyone
on board know American Sign Language？” She knew she needed to help.
Clara, 15 at the time, pressed the call button.The flight attendant came by and
explained the situation.“We have a passenger on the plane who's blind and deaf，”
she said.The passenger seemed to want something, but he was traveling alone and the
flight attendants couldn't understand what he needed, according to PEOPLE magazine.
Clara had been studying ASL for the past year to help with her dyslexia and
knew she'd be able to spell on the man's palm by finger.So she unbuckled her seat
belt, walked toward the front of the plane, and knelt by the aisle seat of Tim Cook,
- 3 -
then 64.Gently taking his hand, she signed,“How are you? Are you OK？”Cook asked
for some water.When it arrived, Clara returned to her seat.She came by again a bit
later because he wanted to know the time.On her third visit, she stopped and stayed
for a while.
“He didn't need anything.He was lonely and wanted to talk，” Clara said.So
for the next hour, that was what they did.She talked about her family and her plans
for the future (she wants to be a politician)．Cook told Clara how he had gradually
become blind over time and shared stories of his days as a traveling salesman.Even
though he couldn't see her, she “looked attentively at his face with such kindness”，
a passenger reported.
“Clara was amazing，” a flight attendant told Alaska Airlines in a blog
interview.“You could tell Cook was very excited to have someone he could speak to,
and she was such a warmhearted girl.” Cook's reaction: “Best trip I've ever had.”
Looking for ways to offer help? Start with this random act of kindness that can
change someone's life right now.
文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了 Clara Daly 在飞机上帮助一个既失明又失聪的
乘客的暖心故事。
24．The flight attendant asked an urgent question because ______.
A．the passenger was traveling alone
B．the plane was in a dangerous situation
C．the passenger asked for something urgently
D．none of the flight attendants could communicate with the passenger
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“he was traveling alone and the flight
attendants couldn't understand what he needed”可知，乘务员无法跟他交流，不知道他
需要什么。
25．Why did Clara talk about her plans for the future?
A．Because the flight attendant asked her to do so.
B．Because she needed topics to go on talking with Cook.
C．Because Cook expected to understand teenagers better.
D．Because she wanted to show her ambition for the future.
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的“‘He was lonely and wanted to talk，’Clara
said.So for the next hour, that was what they did.”可知，因为 Cook 很孤单而且想交
谈，故 Clara 在接下来的一小时一直在和 Cook 交谈。
26．Which of the following words can best describe Clara?
A．Kind and caring.
B．Warmhearted and cautious.
C．Generous and amazing.
- 4 -
D．Ambitious and attentive.

解析：推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“knelt by the aisle seat of Tim Cook”“She
came by again a bit later because he wanted to know the time.On her third visit, she
stopped and stayed for a while.”和第四段中的“looked attentively at his face with
such kindness”可知，她能跪在 Tim 的座位旁边，一次次过去照料他，而且还能带着善意看
着他，由此可推断 Clara 是善良且体贴的。
27．The passage is mainly written to ________.
A．tell a touching story of an amazing girl
B．appeal to readers to lend a hand kindly and randomly
C．stress the great importance of American Sign Language
D．show how considerate the flight attendant was to help Cook

们随时帮助别人，奉献爱心。

This year some twentythree hundred teenagers (young people aged from 13 to 19)
from all over the world will spend about ten months in US homes.They will attend US
schools, meet US teenagers, and form the impressions of the real America.At the same
time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn
new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.
Here is a twoway student exchange in action.Fred, 19, spent last year in Germany
with George's family.In turn, George's son Mike spent a year in Fred's home in America.
Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two
months' study, he began to understand the language.School life was completely
different from what he had expected—much harder.Students rose respectfully when the
teacher entered the classroom.They studied fourteen subjects instead of the six
subjects that are usual in the United States.There were almost no extracurricular
activities.
Family life, too, was different.The father's words were the laws, and all
activities were around the family rather than the individual.Fred found the food too
simple at first.Also, he missed having a car.
At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his
idea.“I suppose I should criticize (批评) American schools，” he said.“The school
life is far too easy for us.But I have to say that I like it very much.In Germany
we can do nothing but study.Here we can take part in many extracurricular
activities.I think that maybe American schools are better in training
citizens.There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”
文章大意：文章介绍了世界各地的青少年去美国体验生活和美国的青少年去世界上的其

其他国家。故 B 项正确。
29．What did Fred and Mike agree on?

B．Americans and Germans were both friendly.
C．Life in German schools was harder than that in American schools.

活动。故 B 项正确。

A．The easy life in the American schools was more helpful to students.
B．German schools trained students to be better citizens.
C．American schools were not as good as German schools.

所长，美国的学校生活相对轻松，而德国的学校生活相对沉闷，他认为一个好的教育应该汲
取双方的长处。故 D 项正确。
D
When I was about 10, I was walking down the street with my mother.She stopped
to speak to Mr Lee.I knew I could see Mr Lee anytime around the neighborhood, so I
just stood there.After we passed him, my mother stopped and said something
unforgettable.“You let that be the last time you ever walk by somebody you know
without opening your mouth to speak，because even a dog can wag its tail when it passes
you on the street.”That sentence sounded simple but it made me become who I am.
At work, I used to say hello to the president of the company and ask him how
our business was doing.But I also spoke to the people in the cafe and people who cleaned
the buildings, and asked them how their children were doing, for every single person
deserves to be accepted, no matter how humble(卑微的) they are.I remember that after
a few years of passing by the president, I had the courage to ask him for a chat.We
had a great talk.At some point, when I asked him how far he thought I could go in
his company, he said that if I wanted to, I could get all the way to his seat.
I've become vicepresident, but that hasn't changed how I treat people.I speak
to people wherever I am.Speaking to people creates a pathway into their world, and
it lets them come into mine, too.The day you speak to someone who has his head down
and then see him lift it up and smile, you will realize how powerful it is just to
open your mouth and say hello.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项是多余
选项。
Power of Words
The power of words is sometimes hard to understand.__36__ If you have goals and
dreams in life, write them down and speak them out.
As an ancient Jewish proverb says “Your tongue has the power of life and
death.”That means that our words have power to finally cause things to happen, even
life or death.__37__ For example，an encouraging word to someone who is down can lift
them up and help them make it through the day.Words can have a powerful effect on
your subconscious(潜意识的) brain.And it will in turn affect your life greatly.
Be very careful, because your words have destructive (破坏性的) power, too.You
have probably heard of children being scolded by their parents and developing a bad
selfimage.Most kids have that experience.__38__
__39__ It's not your parents, your past relationships, your job, the economy,
the weather, and argument or your age that is to blame.You and only you are
responsible for every decision you make.
We may all experience the power of words in our life, even when we were very
- 8 -
young.__40__ Encouraging words from our teacher or parents when we fail in the exam
can make us work harder at our lessons, while blame or scolding will make things worse.
A．But an encouraging word can go quite a long way.
B．Everything you do is based on the choices you make.
C．You should try to be encouraged and think positively.
D．Your words are likely to bring out something amazing.
E．The familiar words can help us build up good relationships with others.
F．We all need positive words especially when being in trouble or needing help.
G．They say it is important to praise children 4 times for each negative word
or scolding.
文章大意：本文主要介绍了语言的神奇作用。
36．A 解析：前一句说到语言的力量有时难以理解，表示转折关系的 A 项说到“但是
一句鼓励的话可以长时间起作用”符合题意。
37．D 解析：根据下文有关鼓励性的话的力量的例子可知，这里是说明它的作用，所
以选项 D 符合题意。
38．G 解析：分析本段语意可知，此处是说语言的破坏性，许多孩子有被家长批评的
经历，G 项与上文语意衔接，故为本题答案。
39．B 解析：下文指出“你，并且只有你要对你做出的每一个决定负责”，这里的
“decision you make”与选项 B 中的“the choices you make”相匹配。
40．F 解析：下文的“fail in the exam”与选项 F 中的“in trouble or needing help”
相匹配，故选 F 项。
第三部分：语言运用(共两节，满分 30 分)

Jacobsen！)”
- 9 -
My mother's name was Mary Jacobsen.

第二节(共 10 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 15 分)
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
When you feel a sneeze __56__ a cough coming on, covering your mouth
__57__(prevent) the spread of germs(细菌)．You probably knew that.But the way you
cover up matters.
The guidance of health officials is that, __58__ you have no tissue available，
you should aim into your elbow, __59__ your hand. “If you sneeze into your hands,
those germs will land on them, and will possibly __60__(pass) on to things like door
knobs, elevator buttons and other surfaces __61__ the people around you are likely
to touch”，said a doctor from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC)．
Germs are most __62__ (common)spread by sneezing and coughing.Sneezing and
coughing into your arm has become the standard suggestion of not just the CDC, but
also other public health __63__(organization)．Even the New York City subway system
occasionally runs an announcement __64__(ask)riders to “cough or sneeze into the
bend of your arm or use a tissue”．
To be clear, that doesn't get rid of all risk, even if it's the best strategy
available.But anything __65__(reduce) the amount of flying particles (微粒) helps.
文章大意：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了打喷嚏或咳嗽时如何有效防止细菌传播。
56．or
解析：考查连词。当你觉得要打喷嚏或咳嗽时，捂住嘴可防止细菌传播。根据语境可知，
空前的“a sneeze”和空后的“a cough”是选择关系，故用 or。
57．prevents
解析：考查动词。根据句子成分可知 covering your mouth 是 v.ing 形式作主语，设
空处为谓语动词，故此处应用 prevents。
58．if
解析：考查连词。卫生官员的指导是，如果你没有可用的纸巾，你应该朝向你的肘部，
而不是你的手(打喷嚏)。根据语境和句子成分可知，此处引导条件状语从句，应用连词 if。
59．not
解析：考查副词和省略。根据语境可知，这里指“而不是你的手”，补充完整应该是 you
- 12 -
should not aim into your hand，根据省略规则可知，此处应填副词 not。
60．be_passed
解析：考查被动语态。根据句子成分可知，本句主语为 those germs，谓语动词 pass
与 those germs 是被动关系，故此处应用被动语态。
61．that/which
解析：考查关系代词。根据句子成分可知，设空处引导定语从句指代先行词 surfaces，
且在定语从句中作宾语，故此处应用关系代词 that/which。
62．commonly
解析：考查副词。根据句子成分可知，设空处修饰谓语动词，应用副词形式 commonly。
63．organizations
解析：考查名词。设空处前有 other 修饰，故此处应用所给名词的复数形式。
64．asking
解析：考查非谓语动词。根据句子结构可知，设空处作前面的名词 announcement 的后
置定语，announcement 和 ask 之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故用 asking 作后置定语。
65．to_reduce
解析：考查非谓语动词。根据语境可知，设空处修饰前面的“anything”，因为 anything
为不定代词，常用 to do 不定式作定语，故此处用 to reduce。

写的词数应为 150 左右。
Sometimes, good intentions alone are not enough when your attempt to be kind
to someone leaves you feeling worse than before.
In a certain store where they sell puddings (布丁), a number of these delicious
things are laid out in a row.Here you may select the one which is most to your taste,
and you are even allowed to taste them before coming to a decision.
I have often wondered whether some people having no intention of making a purchase
would take advantage of this privilege.One day I asked a salesgirl the question, and
I learned it was indeed the case.
“Now there's one old man，” she told me.“He comes here almost every week and
tastes each one of the puddings, though he never buys anything.I remember him from
last year.Well, let him come if he wants it, and he is welcome to it.And what's more,
I hope there are a lot more stores where he can go and get his share.He looks as if
he needs it all right, and I suppose they can afford it.”
She was still speaking when an elderly man walked up to the counter and began
looking closely at the row of puddings with great interest.
“Why, that's the very man I've been telling you about，” whispered the salesgirl,
and then turned to him: “Would you like to taste them, sir? Here's a spoon for you
to use.”
The elderly gentleman, who was poor but neatly dressed, accepted the spoon and
began to taste one after another of the puddings.“This is quite good.This is not
bad either, but a little too heavy.”
Among the crowd of happy, richlooking shoppers, the little black figure of the
old man seemed pitiful and out of place, and in a burst of kindness, I went up to
him and said: “Pardon me, sir, will you do me a favor? Let me purchase you one of
these puddings.It would give me such pleasure.”
答案
Paragraph 1：
The old man jumped back as if he had been bitten, and the blood rushed to his
face.“Excuse me，” he said, with more dignity than I would have thought considering
his appearance, “I do not believe I have the pleasure of knowing you.Undoubtedly
you have mistaken me for someone else.” And with a quick decision he turned to the
salesgirl and said in a loud voice, “Kindly pack up this one here for me.I will take
it with me.” He pointed at one of the largest and most expensive puddings.
Paragraph 2：
The salesgirl took down the pudding from its stand and started to parcel it up.
Meanwhile, the elderly gentleman pulled out a worn little pocketbook and began
- 14 -
counting out shillings and pennies on the counter.To save his “honor” he was forced
into a purchase which he could not possibly afford.How I longed for the power to take
back my insensitive words! It was too late though, and I felt that the kindest thing
I could do now would be walk away.And that was the last time I saw or heard of him.Now
he can never go there to taste puddings any more.
