【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了最新的健美风潮席卷了中国的社交媒体，很多女士甚至还有部分男士通过上传用一张竖立的A4纸遮住自己腰部的照片，来吹嘘自己的身段窈窕如纸；而这些做法引起了很多的争议。

【1】考查非谓语动词。句意：最新的健美风潮席卷了中国的社交媒体，很多女士甚至还有部分男士通过上传用一张竖立的A4纸遮住自己腰部的照片，来吹嘘自己的身段窈窕如纸。分析句子可知，sweep为动词，句子里不缺谓语动词，所以此处需要填非谓语动词；beauty craze为sweep的逻辑主语，它们之间存在主动关系，故用现在分词做定语。故填sweeping。

【2】考查被动语态。句意：要达到合格，腰部必须被竖立的A4纸全部遮住。分析句子可知，the waist和hide之间存在逻辑上的被动关系，must为情态动词，后面必须跟动词原形，所以这里必须填情态动词的被动语态。故填be hidden。

【3】考查定冠词。句意：一张A4纸是8.3*11.7英寸，大约是一张美国信纸的大小。这里size是特指后面的a sheet of American letter paper。故填the。

【4】考查副词。句意：不正常的瘦成了女士们认为美的广泛标准，这个标准一直被批评为不健康的女性魅力理想。thin是形容词，前面用副词修饰，做状语，并且通过上下文可知，这种瘦是反常地，所以填normally的反义词。故填abnormally。

【5】考查定语从句。句意：不正常的瘦成了女士们认为美的广泛标准，这个标准一直被批评为不健康的女性魅力理想。分析句子可知，standard是定语从句的先行词，指物，所以用which引导非限制性定语从句，which在从句中做主语成分。故填which。

【6】考查形容词。句意：一些评论者发现瘦成A4纸腰的趋势令人不安。分析句子可知，此处需要用形容词做宾语补足语，构成句型：主语+谓语+宾语+宾补。disturb为动词，意为“打扰，干扰”，它的形容词disturbing“令人不安的”，描述的事物性质。故填disturbing。

【7】考查代词。句意：我认为是非常愚蠢的。分析句子可知，此处需要宾语，构成句型：主语+谓语+宾语+宾补，所以此处用代词it做宾语，指代前面人们把A4纸腰作为美的标准这件事情。故填it。

【8】考查非谓语动词。句意：用单一的尺寸来定义所有人类，然后认为你已经创造了新的标准，这种想法是愚蠢的。根据固定短语：use sth. to do sth.中的不定式做目的状语。故填to define。

【9】考查主谓一致。句意：用单一的尺寸来定义所有人类，然后认为你已经创造了新的标准，这种想法是愚蠢的。分析句子可知，Using a single size ___8___ (define) all human beings then thinking you have created new standards是动名词短语做主语，谓语动词用单数形式，并且这是引用别人的话，所以时态为一般现在时。故填is。

【10】考查时态。句意：A4纸腰挑战让他很生气，他说这种行为会让某些人获得吹嘘的权利，而让另一些人却很沮丧。根据前文可知，这是过去的一次采访，所以谓语动词应该用一般过去时。故填annoyed。

主谓一致就是谓语动词在人称和数上要和主语保持一致，主谓一致包括语法一致，意义一致和就近一致。如第9小题，就属于语法一致，分析此题可知，本题是动名词短语做主语，谓语动词用单数形式，故填is。

As the art of writing Chinese characters, Chinese calligraphy, or shufa, is boasting as long a history as that of China itself. It is one of the highest forms of Chinese art, serving the purpose of conveying thoughts while also showcasing abstract beauty of lines.

According to the new curriculum recently issued by the Ministry of Education, calligraphy education is required in primary and middle schools. Calligraphy education will not only focus on developing students’ ability to write Chinese characters, but also involve traditional Chinese culture and calligraphy appreciation.

Many people support this practice. The primary and middle schools should attach importance to the art of producing beautiful handwriting using pens or brushes. At the same time, provided with appropriate calligraphy education, students can understand the rich connotation (内涵) and cultural value of Chinese calligraphy.

However, some people think it is out of fashion for students to practise calligraphy, because in many cases, we don't have to write Chinese characters thanks to the invention of computers.

【题目】Particulate Matter

There are things floating around in the air. Most of them, you can not even see. They are a kind of air pollution called particles or particulate matter. In fact, particulate matter may be the air pollutant that most commonly affects people’s health.

Have a Look.

Particles can come in almost any shape or size, and can be solid particles or liquid droplets.【1】 These two groups differ in many ways. One of the differences is size, we call the bigger particles PM 10 and we call the smaller particles PM 2.5.

BIG.

The big particles are between 2.5 and 10 micrometers (from about 25 to 100 times thinner than a human hair). These particles are called PM 10 (we say ―PM ten, which stands for Particulate Matter up to 10 micrometers in size).【2】

SMALL.

The small particles are smaller than 2.5 micrometers (100 times thinner than a human hair).【3】We say ―PM two point five, as in Particulate Matter up to 2.5 micrometers in size.The smaller particles are lighter and they stay in the air longer and travel farther. PM 10 particles can stay in the air for minutes or hours while PM 2.5 particles can stay in the air for days or weeks.And travel? 【4】 PM 2.5 particles go even farther; many hundreds of miles.

Particulate Matter and Your Health.

When you breathe, you take in the air along with any particles in the air, like heavy metal sand cancer causing organic compounds. Both PM 10 and PM 2.5 particles can cause health problems, specifically respiratory (呼吸的) health.【5】 Exposure to particulate matter leads to increased use of medication and more visits to the doctor or emergency room.

A.These particles are called PM 2.5.

B.We divide particles into two major groups.

C.These particles cause less severe health effects.

D.PM 10 particles can travel as much as 30 miles.

E.Air pollution is a growing problem in the whole world.

F.PM 2.5 can have worse health effects than the bigger PM 10.

G.Air pollutants have great effects on our environment and our health.

【题目】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。

In late April 2014, a 【1】 (violence) storm swept through the southern United States, destroying more than $ 1 billion in property and killing 35 people. But a group of migratory(迁徙的) birds in eastern Tennessee sensed the oncoming mess and left long before the first clouds arrived. A year 【2】 (early), the team had tagged golden-winged warblers ( 莺 ) with leg trackers 【3】 (study) their annual migrations to South America. Two days before the storms 【4】 (strike)，five golden-winged warblers slipped away, traveling nearly 700 kilometers south to the Florida coast.

It's the first time that the birds which normally migrate with the seasons 【5】 (observe) to slip away when a big storm hits. The researchers suspect this 【6】 (behave) occurs only when the threat of injury outweighs the energy costs of a long trip. But nobody knows 【7】 the birds guessed the storm's severity and left so soon. Puzzled by it, the scientists initially reasoned that delicate changes in weather — atmospheric pressure, temperature, wind speed, cloud cover, or rainfall signaled 【8】 upcoming disaster. Yet when they checked weather records, none of these factors waved significantly 【9】 the storm. Instead, the team assumes that the 【10】 (approach) storms created a disorder of infrasounds—low-frequency sound waves that birds can hear, but humans can't.

When a lion was asleep, a little mouse began running up and down beside him. This soon wakes up the lion. He was very angry, and caught the mouse in his paws.

"Forgive me, please." cried the little mouse. "I may be some use to you someday." The lion was amusing at these words. He thought, "What could this little mouse help me?" However, he lifted up her paws, allows him to get away.

A few days later on, the lion was caught in a trap. The hunters wanted to take him live to the king, so they tied him to a tree and went away to look for a truck.

Just then a little mouse passed by, and saw the lion, who were lying in despair. He went up to him, and soon chewed away the ropes. "Was I not right?" asked the little mouse.

【题目】Do you feel sad? Happy? Angry? You may think that the way you show these emotions is unique. Well, think again. Even the expression of the most personal feelings can be classified, according to Mind Reading, a DVD exhibiting every possible human emotion．【1】

In the mid 1800s, Darwin divided the emotions into six types—anger, fear, sadness, disgust, surprise and enjoyment．More complex expressions of emotion were probably learned and therefore more specific to each culture．But now it is believed that many more facial expressions are shared worldwide．【2】The Mind Reading DVD is a systematic visual record of these expressions．

The project was designed by a Cambridge professor．His research team first had to define an "emotion"．【3】Using this definition, 412 emotion terms were identified and discussed, from "afraid" to "wanting"．

Then each expression is acted out by six different actors．"It was really clear when the actors had got it right," says Cathy Collis, who directed the DVD．"Although they were given some direction, the actors were not told which facial muscles they should move．【4】

Someone who has tried to set such rules is the American, Professor Paul Ekman, who built database of how the face moves for every emotion．The face can make 43 distinct muscle movements．Ekman has also found that it may not be possible for people to reproduce them artificially．The most difficult expression to reproduce is the smile．It isn't only about stretching the lips, but tightening the tiny muscles around the eyes．【5】If we learnt to recognize whether someone was using their eye muscle when they smiled, we would be able to distinguish true enjoyment from false.

A.It shows 412 distinct ways we feel．

B.These can be combined into more than 10,000 facial shapes．

C.These particular muscles are difficult to control, and few people can do it．

D.They decided that it was a mental state that could be introduced by "I feel" or "he looks "or "she sounds"．

E.He said the expression of these feelings was universal and recognizable by anyone, from any culture．

F.It is as if they are programmed into the brains of "normal humans" wherever they are and whatever their races．

G.We thought of trying to describe each emotion, but it would have been almost impossible to make clear rules for this．

【题目】 English is full of funny expressions that don’t always make sense. What do they mean? How do we use them? And where did they come from? Idioms are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say. Even if you know the meaning of each word you see or hear, you may not understand the idiom because you don’t understand the culture behind it. Here are some English idioms based on animals.

When children jump around and act silly, for example, their parents may tell them to stop “monkeying around”. To “monkey around” means to do things that are not useful or serious, or to simply waste time.

But spending time playing with their family pets wouldn’t count as “monkeying around”. Many American families have a pet dog, which keeps the children company and makes them happy. Bu for some reason, which American language experts do not know, Americans use “dog” in a phrase that means to feel unwell. If you are “as sick as a dog”, you’re really, really sick and will have to stay home and rest or even go and see a doctor.

Apart from dogs, cats are also beloved in U.S. households. Sometimes you may hear them mentioned in Americans’ conversations, “I told you to keep that secret, but you have just ‘let the cat out of the bag’!” You probably guessed it — that idiom means to reveal a secret or tell facts that were previously unknown.

Dogs and cats don’t always get along, but they appear side by side in a commonly used idiom. When it rains heavily, people might say it’s “raining cats and dogs” outside.

Bad weather often ruins people’s plans for outdoor activities. But on a lovely day, they can go on an outing or have a picnic in the park. If a swarm of tiny bugs decide they love your picnic food and start to hover (盘旋) around you and your friends, then it would be really annoying, wouldn’t it? That experience perfectly explains why people often tell someone who keeps bothering them to “stop bugging me”.

Idioms are very common in both spoken and written English, so learning them is very important. If you need to understand English, or if you want to speak or write natural-sounding English, you have to learn idioms.

【1】According to Paragraph 1, idioms are_____.

A.phrases and sentences based on animals

B.expressions with rich cultural background

C.funny expressions that always make sense

D.the total sum of the meanings of the words

【2】“Monkeying around” can be used to describe children_____.

A.jumping around and wasting time

B.doing something useful and serious

C.playing with monkeys with their parents

D.spending time playing with their family pets

【3】What can be learned from the text?

A.Dogs and cats are friends by nature.

B.Bugs can be used to show your annoyance.

C.Americans believe cats can give away secrets.

D.Americans know the origin of the idiom “as sick as a dog”.

【4】How does the text mainly develop?

A.By sharing experiences.B.By making comparisons.

C.By providing examples.D.By quoting experts' words.

【题目】 Whether you’re going in for checkups or common tests in the hospital, here’s how to get the most out of your next visit.

If you’re going in for a regular doctor visit, you’re probably going to have your blood pressure taken. So it’s best to avoid coffee right before your appointment. 【1】 Using coffee or other caffeine such as energy drinks or colas within an hour of having your blood pressure measured can make the number artificially higher. 【2】

They also may cause untrue results.

You probably want to show the doctor your best health. 【3】 Before an annual appointment, your providers would like you to be honest and upfront about your lifestyle and diet so they can have an accurate history of your health and provide you with the best possible care. You may think improving an unhealthy diet close to your appointment date is necessary. 【4】 It takes a long time for diet to change cholesterol and blood sugar, so a dietary change of a few days or meals isn’t going to do much. Changes occur over the long term, so it’s best to eat healthy as much as you can.

No matter what kind of appointment you have, you may be a bit nervous-after all, being examined by a doctor can make us feel vulnerable and even embarrassed. But if you write down the things you want to talk about before you go (or even make a note on your phone), you’re less likely to forget or lose you nerve. It’s helpful if you come in with your list of questions. 【5】

A.You may get too nervous to ask.

B.The same goes for tobacco products.

C.It might affect the results.

D.But probably that wouldn’t matter.

E.Your doctor wants you to feel better.

F.It’s not necessary to change your eating habits.

G.Don’t be afraid to write down.
