时间：120 分钟 满分：120 分
第一部分：听力(略)
第二部分：阅读理解(共两节，满分 50 分)
第一节(共 15 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 分)
阅读下列短文，从题中所给的(A、B、C、D)四个选项中，选出最佳答案。
A
Check off the Four Corners
Arizona, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico are not simply the only four American
states that meet at a single point, but they also host the US's greatest concentration
of national parks.
This is the place to come for that classic scene of the lonely desert road
extending to the horizon.On your way, take in such sights as the Monument Valley
and the mysterious remains of centuriesold civilizations in Colorado's Mesa Verde.
Find beauty in the desert
With many miles of excellent roads, a selfdrive trip in Namibia makes total
sense.Plan a route north from capital Windhoek to wildliferich Etosha National Park,
before crossing Damaraland to reach the Skeleton Coast.The most impressive desert
views are in the NamibNaukluft National Park to the south.At Sossusvlei，the
landscape takes on the quality of a surrealist painting.
Cross half a continent
The 1,761milelong Stuart Highway runs north to south through Australia's Red
Centre.It is not a road where every turn shows new wonders；the reward of this trip
comes in the gradual change in your surroundings, from red soils in Australia's
outback to the tropical(热带的)leaves of the Indian Ocean coast.
Take the high road
Among all the crashing of continental plates that raised up the Canadian Rockies,
a 144mile route was left more or less clear at their centre.The Icefields Parkway
now passes through this amazing scenery；with the access it brings to icy lakes,
waterfalls and ice fields，the section between Banff and Jasper has a good claim
to being the most scenic in the world.

B
There was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care.To water his
flowers, he used two buckets (水桶)．One was a shiny and new bucket.The other was
a very old and dilapidated one, which had seen many years of service, but was now
past its best.
Every morning, the gardener would fill up the two buckets.Then he would carry
them along the path, one on each side, to the flowerbeds.The new bucket was very
proud of itself.It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop
spilled.The old bucket felt very ashamed (惭愧的) because of its holes: before it
reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked (渗漏) along the path.
Sometimes the new bucket would say, “See how capable I am! How good it is that
the gardener has me water the flowers every day! I don't know why he still uses
you.What a waste of space you are！”
And all that the old bucket could say was, “I know I am not very useful, but
I can only do my best.I am happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use
3
in me, at least.”
One day, the gardener heard that kind of conversation.After watering the flowers
as usual, he said, “You both have done your work very well.Now I am going to carry
you back, and I want you to look carefully along the path.”
Then the two buckets did so.All along the path, they noticed, on the side where
the new bucket was carried, there was just bare earth; on the other side where the
old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way
to the garden.
文章大意：文章通过讲述一个园艺工人一直在使用一只破桶浇花告诉我们：任何一样事
物的存在都有它自己的价值。
24．What was the old bucket ashamed of?
A．Its past. B．Its aging.
C．Its manner. D．Its leaking.
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句话中的“felt very ashamed (惭愧的) because
of its holes...much water had leaked (渗漏)”可知，旧桶对自己漏水感到很羞愧。
25．What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?
A．Dirty. B．Dark.
C．Wornout. D．Ordinarylooking.
答案：C
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“which had seen many years of service, but was
now past its best”可知，这个桶已经用了很多年，它最好的时候已经过去了。所以推测
该词是指这只桶已经破旧不堪了。故 C 项 wornout 与画线词意思相近。
26．The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to ________.
A．take pity on the old one
B．laugh at the old one
C．show off its good looks
D．praise the gardener's kindness
答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中的“See how capable I am... I don't know why he
still uses you.What a waste of space you are！”可知，新桶在嘲笑旧桶。故选 B。
27．Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?
A．Because it was used to keep a balance.
B．Because it stayed in its best condition.
C．Because it had its own function.
D．Because it was thought of as a treasure.
答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段第二句话可知，这只旧桶也有作用和价值，浇灌
了它那一边的野花，故它的存在仍然是有价值的。故选 C。

C
China is a large producer and consumer of rice.But, as a result of climate change,
the amount of land available for rice growing in the country is shrinking.The concern
has motivated scientists led by Yuan Longping，known as “the father of hybrid
rice” ，to look for new ways of growing the grain.
Now they're celebrating successful efforts to grow rice—in sand and
seawater.Rice is traditionally grown in soil and fresh water.Starting from January,
according to the official Xinhua News Agency, the scientists have grown dozens of
varieties of rice in the deserts of Dubai.They experimented with seawater because
it is easier to obtain in the desert than fresh water.
China is not the only country facing the issue of overly salty soil.Around the
world, there are around 2.35 billion acres of highly saline (含盐的)land.And the
number is increasing because of rising sea levels and climate change.
“Probably only a small part of the world's saline land could be brought into
production with seawater rice, but that would still have a very important effect
on food security，” Even R．Pay, a senior analyst, said.
Yuan told Xinhua that one of the varieties of rice grown in Dubai produced over
three tons, per acre, which Yuan said was beyond expectations.
Rice is the basic food in many parts of the world.About 90% of rice consumption
is from Asia, but demand in Africa and Latin America is on the rise.
A climate change researcher said the successful experiment could potentially
benefit many countries. “This is a fantastic development, which is likely to have
a good effect on agricultural resource and waterpoor countries, particularly in
North Africa region.”
Even though the cost of growing salttolerant rice is still high, it will also
have strategic value once it's commercialized.
文章大意：本文主要介绍了在“杂交水稻之父”袁隆平带领下的科学家们进行了在沙子
和海水中种植水稻的试验。
28．What has caused the scientists to find new ways of growing rice?
A．The increase of rice consumers.
B．The high cost of rice producing.
C．The land shortage of rice growing.
D．The severe pollution of fresh water.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段第二、三句“But, as a result of climate change...to
look for new ways of growing the grain.”可知，能种植水稻的土地短缺促使科学家们
去寻找种植水稻的新方法。
29．Yuan's team have successfully grown rice in sand and seawater in________.
A．China B．Dubai
5
C．Latin America D．North Africa
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Starting from January...have grown dozens of
varieties of rice in the deserts of Dubai.”和第五段中的“one of the varieties of
rice grown in Dubai”可知，Yuan 的团队在迪拜成功种植了水稻。
30．What can be inferred from the text?
A．About 90% of the rice is demanded and consumed in China.
B．The production of a new type of rice is larger than expected.
C．The increase of saline land is mainly caused by climate change.
D．Seawater is used in the experiment because it is cheaper to gain.
答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第五段中的“one of the varieties of rice grown in Dubai
produced over three tons, per acre, which Yuan said was beyond expectations”可
知，其中一种在迪拜种植的水稻产量为每英亩三吨多，这超出了人们的预料，故选 B。
31．What is the author's attitude to the ricegrowing experiment?
A．Doubtful. B．Positive.
C．Critical. D．Disappointed.
答案：B
解析：观点态度题。根据最后一段“Even though the cost of growing salttolerant
rice is still high, it will also have strategic value once it's commercialized.”
可推知，作者对这种水稻种植的试验持乐观的态度。
D
Nearly every week, we hear news about the latest successes and failures in
driverless vehicles.But we hear little about how other industries are developing
this same kind of technology.One industry heavily involved in researching and
developing artificial intelligence, or AI, is agriculture.Companies are
experimenting with hightech tools that can help farmers save time and money, while
reducing environmentharming chemicals.
One of the companies is ecoRobotix of Switzerland.It created a robot equipped
with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm.The robot has four wheels to
carry itself through the fields in search of weeds.Computercontrolled arms then
lower and spray the weeds with small amounts of herbicide(除草剂)．Company officials
say the robot can fully operate on its own for up to 12 hours a day while being powered
by the sun. It uses the same kind of sensor and positioning technology used to guide
driverless vehicles.A farmer can also control the equipment through a smartphone.
The cofounder of ecoRobotix, Aurélien Demaurex, says the farm robot can kill
weeds with 20 times less herbicide than traditional methods.This is because the
system uses exactly the right chemical amount in the exact place required to kill
the weeds.Currently, farmers spread weed killers over massive areas to destroy
6
unwanted plants.
Another company developing farm robotics is Californiabased Blue River
Technology.The company has a system called “See & Spray”， which it claims was
the world's first smart sprayer.The system—which is connected to the back of a
tractor—is also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only the weeds.It
can also spray chemicals on wanted plants to help them grow.Ben Chostner, vice
president of business development for Blue River Technology, explains in a
company video that See & Spray technology uses the same deep learning methods
used in facial recognition.“The first time the machine saw pigweed, it didn't know
what kind of plant it was.But we taught it—by giving it tens of thousands of examples
of that pigweed—and now it's an expert in pigweed.”
文章大意：一些公司正在试验农业方面的人工智能高科技工具，这些工具可以帮助农民
节省时间和金钱，同时减少使用对环境有害的化学物质。
32．How will AI benefit agriculture?
A．It will fund agriculture research.
B．It contributes to lowcost farming.
C．It can avoid harmful chemicals.
D．It frees all farmers from field work.
答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Companies are experimenting with
hightech tools that can help farmers save time and money, while reducing
environmentharming chemicals.”可知，人工智能可以帮助农民节省时间和金钱，同时减
少使用对环境有害的化学物质。故选 B。
33．What do the products of the two companies have in common?
A．They use recognition technology.
B．They are powered by solar energy.
C．They are connected with smartphones.
D．They can help wanted plants grow rapidly.
答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“It created a robot equipped with AI and
cameras to identify all plants on a farm.”以及第四段第三句“The system—which is
connected to the back of a tractor—is also equipped with AI to identify and
chemically kill only the weeds.”可知，两个公司的产品的共同点就是，它们都使用了
识别技术，故选 A。
34．What do Ben Chostner's words suggest about the robot?
A．It is environmentally friendly.
B．It is good at selfimproving.
C．It has the learning ability.
D．It can track various plants.
7
答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“But we taught it—by giving it tens of
thousands of examples of that pigweed—and now it's an expert in pigweed.”可知，
研发人员给这个机器人成千上万的苋的样本来教它，这个机器人现在在识别苋方面是一个专
家。由此可推知，Ben Chostner 意在表明该机器人有学习能力。故选 C。
35．What is mainly talked about in the text?
A．The experiment in farming robots.
B．A new trend in artificial intelligence.
C．Modern See & Spray technology.
D．Artificial intelligence in agriculture.
答案：D
解析：主旨大意题。根据文章第一段第三句“One industry heavily involved in
researching and developing artificial intelligence, or AI, is agriculture.”可知，
农业是研究和开发人工智能(AI)的重要行业之一；然后文章第二至四段介绍了两个公司的人
工智能产品是如何帮助农业生产的。由此可知，本文的主旨是介绍人工智能在农业中的应用。
故选 D。
第二节(共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分)
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。
Many companies, including McDonald's, are removing artificial colors from their
foods. __36__ Colors send important signals about food, and companies aren't going
to stop using them.
Cheese
Check the packages of most cheeses, and there is likely an ingredient called
annatto (胭脂红) listed.__37__ The practice dates back to when cheesemakers in
England removed the butterfat from milk to make butter.The leftover milk was whiter,
so cheesemakers added annatto to create a golden coloring.
Egg Yolks
Many home cooks think darker egg yolks are fresher or more nutritious.But the
color may be the result of coloring products in chicken feed.__38__ Darker yolks
aren't necessarily healthier.The belief that they are healthier is likely rooted
in the idea that yolks are darker when hens are fed a diet of fresh plants, which
contain the pigments (色素)．
Salmon
Bright pink flesh may signal freshness to shoppers eyeing salmon, which is
why salmon may have been fed synthetic astaxanthin(虾青素)．__39__ For
example, at Costco, tickets of farmed salmon are saying “Color added through feed”．
“People used to get all the coloring all over their fingers.We now kind of
laugh at that，” said Richard Matoian, director of a food trade association.__40__
8
Americans, therefore, apparently aren't entirely ready to say goodbye to the
artificial colors in various kinds of food.Companies are expected to take new
measures in response to customer demand.
A．Without it, cheese would be offwhite.
B．But producers know the difference colors can make.
C．It's easy to change yolk colors by simply varying hens' diet.
D．But don't expect your cheeseburgers to look much different.
E．Yolk colors vary when chickens live in different climates as well.
F．Producers are asked to declare on tickets if artificial colors were used.
G．Some companies even offer various shades of pink to help judge flesh colors.
文章大意：本文是一篇说明文，以奶酪、蛋黄、三文鱼肉的颜色为例，说明食物添加剂
对食物的作用和社会、经济方面的影响。
36．D 解析：考查承上启下。根据空前一句和空后一句可知，虽然很多公司正在停止
往他们的食物中加人工色素，但是颜色传达了关于食物的重要信息，人工色素的使用是难以
禁止的，故 D 项“但是不要期待你的芝士汉堡看起来会有很大不同”符合语境，起到承上启
下的作用。
37．A 解析：考查细节理解。根据本段的小标题 Cheese 和下文的“The leftover milk
was whiter”可知，A 项中的 it 指代空前的“annatto(胭脂红)”，offwhite 与下文的
“whiter”对应。
38．C 解析：考查细节理解。根据本段的小标题 Egg Yolks 和空前的“the color may
be the result of coloring products in chicken feed”可知，鸡饲料的改变可能会导致
蛋黄颜色的改变，故选 C 项。
39．F 解析：考查细节理解。根据下文中的“For example, at Costco, tickets of
farmed salmon are saying ‘Color added through feed’”可知，含色素的三文鱼需要
用标签表明含色素这一信息，故 F 项符合语境。
40．B 解析：考查承上启下。根据上文中的“People used to get all the coloring
all over their fingers. We now kind of laugh at that”和下文中的“Americans,
therefore, apparently aren't entirely ready to say goodbye to the artificial colors
in various kinds of food.”可知，B 项“但是生产商知道颜色对食物产生的影响”承上
启下，符合语境。

最佳选项。
Advances in farm animal protection are happening with scientists painting eyes
on the butts(屁股) of cows.The experiment is based on the idea that farmers, who
are protecting their animals from lions, __41__ shoot and kill lions in an effort
to protect their farm animals.__42__ this makes a lot of sense, it results in many
lion deaths that otherwise would have been unnecessary.Researchers in Australia
9
have been __43__ a trick to make lions think they are being watched by the painted
eyes on cow butts.
As conservation areas become __44__， lions are increasingly coming into
contact with human populations, which are __45__ to the boundaries of these
protected areas.
Efforts like painting eyes on cow butts may seem __46__ at first, but they could
make actual progress in the __47__ for conservation.“If the method __48__， it could
provide farmers in Botswana with a lowcost, sustainable (可持续的) tool to protect
their farm animals, and a way to keep lions safe from being __49__.”
Lions are primarily ambush (埋伏) hunters, so when they feel their target has
__50__ them, they usually __51__ the hunt.Researchers are __52__ testing their
idea on cattle.They have painted __53__ of the cows with eyes and left the other
half as normal.With satellite __54__ both the cattle and the lions in the area, they
will be able to __55__ if their psychological trick will work to help keep farmers
from shooting lions.

文章大意：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了我国最近设立的“中国农民丰收节”，文中具体
介绍了设立该节日的目的、意义、节日的时间、活动的开展方式等细节内容。
56．specifically
解析：考查副词。此处作状语，修饰 created，所以要用副词。
57．starting
解析：考查非谓语动词中的现在分词。此处表示的是该节日开始实行的时间，start 与
其逻辑主语之间是主谓关系，故用现在分词作伴随状语。
12
58．explained
解析：考查动词的时态。根据时间状语 Thursday 和下文的 Han said 可知，此处要用一
般过去时。
59．to
解析：考查介词。give importance to...是固定搭配，表示“重视……”，故填介词
to。
60．development
解析：考查词性转化。前有形容词 faster 修饰，后有介词 of，故应填名词。

第二节：读后续写(满分 25 分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续
写的词数应为 150 左右。
When I was in school, I joined an undergraduate program to chat with specific
patients and then discuss it with others.But I had no specific training in this,
and introducing myself to strangers was not one of my natural talents.
On one special visit, I cautiously entered a darkened room to find an elderly
man lying in the bed.There was no one else in the room, and I firstly thought he
was sleeping.When I moved a little closer to the bed, I realized that he was very
much awake, but also very confused and anxious.He desperately wanted to communicate
something to others, but I couldn't understand what he was saying.He seemed weak,
and I couldn't tell if he was in pain, or just scared.I knew nothing about this man's
life or history, and at that time I felt totally helpless.He obviously didn't want
me to leave, but I felt so lost and uncomfortable that I had to leave the room after
only a couple of minutes.
The next time I was at the hospital, I was asked to make followup visits with
the same list of patients.I expected my time with the confused man to be just as
short as the last time if he was even still alive.It seemed pointless to prevent
myself from trying to talk with someone who was so weak.
As I arrived at the room, the first thing I noticed was that the lights were
on.His daughter was there chatting with him.He was sitting up in the bed and looked
a bit better than before.I introduced myself to the daughter and explained to her
that I had come by before.Addressing the patient, I then suggested that I was certain
he didn't remember me at all.
答案
Paragraph 1：
To my surprise, he corrected me immediately. “I remember you. You are the kind
man！” he said excitedly. I thought he must be mistaking me for someone else, but
he then accurately told me enough details of our first meeting. I was so confused
about that. In my first visit to this weak patient, I did absolutely nothing to help
this man except show up. Then he explained that my presence last time gave him hope
to live. We talked a little more that day and said goodbye.
Paragraph 2：
14
After this visit, the words the old man said to me were always in my mind. I
must admit that a stranger in hospital whose name I even didn't know changed my
attitude to the life with a single comment. It reshaped the way I see life, the way
I see myself, and the way I see others. It makes me want to offer whatever kindness
I can to others, and I try to recognize and appreciate the kindness that others offer
to me. Obviously, we couldn't know the impact our actions, or even just our presence,
has on life.
