二、Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension(总题数：0，分数：0.00)

三、Passage One(总题数：1，分数：10.00)

A few centuries ago, people looked at the birds and wondered what it would be like to fly like them. There were stories of heroes who glued bird feathers on their arms and flew up into the sky. About 500 years ago, some people dreamed a different dream. Instead of flying up to the sky, they dreamed of falling from the sky!

In the 15th century, Italian inventors designed a cone-shaped (锥形) device that was supposed to bring a man down safely from a great height. The operator held on to a handle with a strap strapped to his waist. This was the first known design for a parachute (降落伞).

Even the great inventor Leonardo da Vinci sketched a type of parachute. His parachute design was in the shape of pyramid (金字塔). Other inventors also sketched their own designs for a parachute. Unfortunately, these were only designs on paper and no one tested them.

A Croatian inventor named Fausto Veranzio looked at Leonardo da Vinci\"s parachute design and replaced the pyramid shape with one that looked like a sail from a ship. When Veranzio was 65 years old, he fell ill. Thinking he would not live longer, he decided to try out his parachute invention. He built his parachute using wood and cloth. Strapping his invention to his waist, he jumped off the tall bell tower in his city. He landed safely! He was supposedly the first man to successfully use a parachute. However, some other people thought this story was not true. If that was the case, then the first person to successfully use a parachute would go to a Frenchman named Louis-Sebastien Lenormand in 1783.（分数：10.00）

(1).The first known parachute was designed by ______.（分数：2.00） A.Frenchman B.Italian √ C.Croatians D.Englishmen

解析：[解析] 由题干中“first known parachute”可定位至第二段最后一句“This was the first known design for a parachute. ”，再根据本段第一句“...Italian inventors designed a cone-shaped (锥形) device that...”可知the first known parachute是意大利发明家设计的。故选B。 (2).Leonardo da Vinci\"s parachute was shaped like a ______.（分数：2.00） A.cone B.feather C.pyramid √ D.sail

解析：[解析] 由文章第三段前两句“Even the great inventor Leonardo da Vinci sketched a type of parachute. His parachute design was in the shape of pyramid (金字塔).”可知，本题应该选C。 (3).Which of the following about Fausto Veranzio is true?（分数：2.00） A.He copied da Vinci\"s parachute design. B.He made his parachute with feather and wood. C.He experimented with his parachute many times.

D.He decided to try his parachute after he was seriously ill. √

解析：[解析] 由第四段第一句“...replaced the pyramid shape with one that looked like a sail from a ship. ”可知Fausto Veranzio改变了Leonardo da Vinci的降落伞的设计，并没有抄袭(copy)，故A项错误。由第四段第四句“He built his parachute using wood and cloth. ”可知，B项错误。根据第四段内容可知，Fausto Veranzio第一次试验他自己发明的降落伞便成功了，文中并未提到他进行了多次试验，故C项错误。由第四段第二、三句可知，Fausto Veranzio生病了，他觉得自己活不久了，所以决定试验一下他发明的降落伞，由此可推知他应该病得很重，故D正确。

(4).As for the first man who successfully used a parachute, ______.（分数：2.00） A.it was said to be Leonardo da Vinci B.we know for sure he was Veranzio C.there were some historical records

D.we don\"t know for sure yet √

解析：[解析] 由文章最后三句可知，Fausto Veranzio原本被认为是第一个成功使用降落伞的人，但有人认为如果这是真的话，那第一个使用降落伞的人也可能是法国人Louis-Sebastien Lenormand，所以可推断出，究竟谁是第一个成功地使用降落伞的人还没有确定的答案。 (5).The passage is mainly about ______.（分数：2.00） A.the origin of the parachute √ B.the dreams of flying and falling C.the courage of dropping from the sky D.the application of parachute invention

解析：[解析] 文章主要讲述了降落伞的发明和使用过程，所以本文的主旨就是降落伞的起源问题。

四、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：10.00)

Out of all the students: who enroll in a massive open online course (MOOC), only about 5 percent complete the course and receive a certificate accomplishment This statistic is often cited as evidence that MOOCs are fatally flawed (缺陷的) and offer little educational value to most students. Yet more than 80 percent of students who fill out a post-course survey say they met their primary objective. How do we look at these two facts?

We\"re used to focusing on completion rates in higher education, but they\"re not the only—or even the most meaningful—indicator of engagement in open online courses. With no cost to enroll, no punishment for dropping out, and little reward for actually earning a certificate, MOOCs are fundamentally different from traditional classes—and students use them in fundamentally different ways.

Data from more than 1.8 million students enrolled in 36 MOOCs offered by the University of Pennsylvania show that students treat MOOCs as a buffet (自助餐), sampling the material according to their interests and career goals. Some are curious about the subject matter and just watch one or two video lectures; others use the discussion forums to connect with their intellectual peers around the world. Of all enrolled students, nearly 60 percent watch at least one video, complete at least one assignment, or post at least once in a forum.

So focusing on the tiny fraction of students who complete a MOOC is misguided.

The more important number is the 60 percent engagement rate. Students may not finish a MOOC with a certificate of accomplishment, but the courses nonetheless meet the educational goals of millions.（分数：10.00）

(1).What do we learn about MOOCs from Para. 1?（分数：2.00） A.There seems to be conflicting statistics about MOOCs. √ B.It turns out that MOOCs have failed people\"s expectations. C.Most students find it hard to judge the value of MOOCs. D.The educational value of MOOCs is well acknowledged.

解析：[解析] 通读文章第一段的内容可知，前半部分提到“5%的人完成了课程并且获得了证书，这个数据经常被作为证据证明MOOCs有着致命的缺陷，并且对大多数学生来说几乎没有教育价值”；后半部分又说“课后填写调查问卷的学生中有80%多的人觉得他们达到了根本目标”，由此可见，前后两部分提供的数据是相互矛盾的，所以选A。

(2).In Para. 2, the author stresses ______.（分数：2.00） A.the primary objective of MOOC students

B.the significance of completion rates in education C.the strengths and weakness of open online courses

D.the differences between MOOCs and traditional classes √

解析：[解析] 由第二段后半部分内容可知，“MOOCs are fundamentally different from traditional classes”是本段强调的主要内容，而“no cost to enroll, no punishment for dropping out, and little reward for actually earning a certificate”正是MOOCs与传统课程的不同之处。

(3).According to Para. 3, students choose MOOCs for the following reasons EXCEPT ______.（分数：2.00）

A.earning a certificate √ B.improving job-related skills

C.meeting their interest in the Subjects D.exchanging ideas with students worldwide

解析：[解析] 由第三段中的“according to their interests and career goals”可知，B是原因之一。由“Some are curious about the subject matter and just watch one or two video lectures. ”可知C是原因之一。由“others use the discussion forums to connect with their intellectual peers around the world”可知D是原因之一。文中并未提到A项。

(4).The sentence \"students treat MOOCs as a buffet\" (Para. 3) ______.（分数：2.00） A.emphasizes the core value of MOOCs B.demonstrates the daily operation of MOOCs

C.indicates students are free to choose MOOC resources √ D.explains what students learn from MOOC courses

解析：[解析] buffet意为“自助餐”，自助餐的特点就是具有自主选择权，所以将MOOCs比作“自助餐”就是为了突出它可以满足学生自主选择课程的特点，与选项C同义。 (5).What is the author\"s attitude toward MOOCs?（分数：2.00） A.Critical. B.Supportive. √ C.Indifferent. D.Neutral.

解析：[解析] 文章第一段指出多数学生认为MOOCs有好处；第二段指出了MOOCs与传统课程的不同之处；第三段将MOOCs比作“自助餐”，并提出了几点优点；最后一段又指出“完成MOOC课程的学生可能并未获得证书，但课程确确实实使得成千上万的学生达到了教育目标”。由此可知，作者对MOOCs是持支持态度的。

五、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：10.00)

Whether you are hiking (徒步) through the magnificent redwoods of Northern California, sleeping under the brilliant stars of the Texas sky or watching the sun rise across the rocky cliffs of Maine, expecting the outdoor world can be inspiring, thrilling, and deeply satisfying. And one of the best ways to enjoy the abundant gifts of the natural world is simple, inexpensive, and available to almost everyone. Let\"s go camping.

When you camp, you create a \"home away from home\" in the fresh air. You don\"t need a lot of fancy equipment to enjoy camping. What you need is simply a tent large enough for your family. Practice setting up the tent at home to make sure you are familiar with the process before you go camping. Once you find a good site, it\"s time to set up the tent. Your first job is to set up your tent. Remove all sticks and rocks from the area. Spread a tarp (防水帆布) over the area where your tent will sit. Set up the tent and be sure to stake it down firmly, even if the weather is mild. Otherwise, strong wind can blow your tent away.

Next, you\"ll need some firewood for a campfire. If gathering wood is illegal at your campground, you must buy it at the camp store. If gathering dead wood is permitted, go on a firewood-hunting journey and bring in a good supply of wood for your campsite, pile the wood safely away from the campfire ring and where no one will trip over the wood or hurt his or her legs on sharp branches. Being a responsible camper requires that you follow the rules of the campground. Do not burn food or plastic in your campfire. Make sure that you leave your campsite in good condition for the next campers. Just before leaving the site, make a final check to be certain that your campfire is completely out. Pour water on the ashes just to be safe!（分数：10.00）

(1).As is suggested by the author, you should practice setting up your tent ______.（分数：2.00） A.before the weather turns bad

B.before your first camping up √ C.after having selected your campsite D.once you have decided where to go

解析：[解析] 根据第二段最后一句“Practice setting up the tent at home to make sure you are familiar with the process before you go camping. ”可知，作者建议露营者在去野营之前练习一下如何搭起帐篷。故选B。

(2).What is the first thing you should do after choosing a campsite?（分数：2.00） A.Gather firewood.

B.Spread a tarp on the ground. C.Set up the tent. √

D.Remove sticks and rocks from the tent area.

解析：[解析] 根据第三段第一、二句“Once you find a good site, it\"s time to set up tent. Your first job is to set up your tent. ”可知，选好露营地之后要做的第一件事是搭起帐篷。故选C。 (3).You can gather firewood only ______.（分数：2.00） A.after you are sure that it is permitted √ B.after you are certain that no one will get hurt C.if there is no camp store nearby

D.if firewood is out of stock in a camp store

解析：[解析] 根据第四段第二、三句“If gathering wood is illegal at your campground, you must buy it at the camp store. If gathering dead wood is permitted, go on a firewood-hunting journey...”可知，如果露营地可以收集枯木的话，露营者可以去寻找、收集枯木；如果不可以的话，露营者必须到露营商店购买。故选A。

(4).The last thing you should do before leaving your campsite is ______.（分数：2.00） A.burn all the trash B.clean the campsite

C.pour water on the ashes √ D.collect all the rubbish

解析：[解析] 根据文章最后两句“...make a final check to be certain that your campfire is completely out. Pour water on the ashes just to be safe!”可知，为了安全起见，露营者在离开露营地之前应在灰烬上浇上水。故选C。

(5).The passage is mainly about ______.（分数：2.00） A.safety measures a camper should take B.problems you may face as a camper C.what you need to know about camping √ D.what you need to bring along for camping

解析：[解析] 通读全文可知，作者主要对露营者介绍了野营应注意的事项、应准备的东西以及野营时依次应做的事情。故选C。

六、Passage Four(总题数：1，分数：10.00)

Every country has secret services to help protect it against serious threats from terrorists, major criminals or even from other countries. People who threaten to harm a country always plot in secret, so the intelligence agencies have to work in secret to find out what is being planned before it happens, so that it can be prevented. They do that in many different ways—by secretly listening to their targets talking on the phone, by planting microphones to overhear meetings, by watching the targets as they move from place to place and by recruiting some of the targets to act as double agents to report on what is going on.

For most of my career I worked in one of the UK\"s three intelligence services, MIS, the domestic security service. I first joined in the 1970s, in the middle of the Cold War, when the war was divided into two armed camps, the Soviet Union and its allies on the one side and Western Europe, America and their allies on the other. The Cold War never became a fighting war. It was an

intelligence war, with intelligence officers from both sides trying to find out what the other side was doing, what kind of weapons they had, when and if they might start a war and what their plans were. Both sides were secretly working in each other\"s countries.

Nowadays one of the biggest threats to the world, comes from terrorists. Intelligence officers from many different countries are working together to find out who they are, where they are and what they are planning. Today\"s MIS officers get their intelligence in much the same way as we did during the Cold War, but their task is even more difficult and urgent because most terrorists want to kill people. Many terrorist attacks that are planned and prepared never happen, and we never know anything about them because the intelligence services find them out and prevent them.（分数：10.00）

(1).What is the first paragraph mainly about?（分数：2.00） A.The tasks of intelligence agencies. √ B.The contributions of intelligence agencies. C.The equipment used by intelligence agents. D.The recruitment of intelligence agents.

解析：[解析] 根据第一段内容可知，本段主要讲述了情报机构的主要任务。故选A。

(2).The biggest security threats for Britain in the 1970s were from ______.（分数：2.00） A.international terrorists

B.the Soviet Union and its allies √ C.major criminals within the country D.agents working for both camps

解析：[解析] 根据第二段第一、二句“For most of my career...in the middle of the Cold War, when the war was divided into two armed camps, the Soviet Union and its allies on the one side and Western Europe, America and their allies on the other. ”可知，作者是在英国三大情报机构之一——管理情报系统工作，当时是冷战时期，英国在以美国为首的“北约”阵营中，与以苏联为首的“华约”阵营处于冷战的对峙状态。由此可推知，对英国而言当时最大的安全威胁是苏联以及其盟友。故选B。 (3).What is true about the Cold War?（分数：2.00） A.Both camps were planning to start a war. B.It was a war fought with advanced weapons. C.No fierce clash broke out during the period. √ D.It is not regarded as an intelligence war.

解析：[解析] 根据第二段倒数第二、三句“The Cold War never became a fighting war. It was an intelligence war, with intelligence officers from both sides trying to find out what the other side was doing...”可知，冷战时期并没有爆发激烈的冲突，事实上，冷战是一场情报战。故选C。 (4).MIS officers\" task is more urgent today in that ______.（分数：2.00） A.terrorists are more difficult to find than spies B.most terrorist attacks are aimed at killing people √ C.terrorist attacks happen more frequently than before D.it takes only a little time to prepare a terrorist attack

解析：[解析] 根据最后一段倒数第二句“...but their task is even more difficult and urgent because most terrorists want to kill people. ”可知，当今管理情报系统的情报员的任务更加艰难和紧急，因为多数恐怖袭击事件的目的是杀害民众。故选B。

(5).The best title for the passage might be ______.（分数：2.00） A.Ways of Gathering Intelligence B.National Defense Against All Threats

C.Which Is More Threatening: Terrorists Or Spies D.What We Do as Intelligence Officers √

解析：[解析] 通读全文可知，作者以第一人称“我”的口吻介绍了情报机构的主要工作、冷战时期两大阵营情报员的主要工作，以及当今情报员的主要任务。故选D。
