Passion Pit among its alumni (男校友), often organizes free student performances in such

their classmates.

carrying ID from one of the many schools in the city and the museum’s special exhibits and film

screenings are discounted for students.

威区-波士顿红袜棒球队主场；伯克利音乐学院；美术博物馆等。

1. 词义猜测题。根据“With their reputation attracting some of the brightest students from around

the globe” 由于他们的名声吸引了来自世界各地的一些最聪明的学生，their指代的是波士顿的名牌学

校。所以英格兰的心脏指的是波士顿。根据题意，故选A。

2. 细节理解题。根据“The Fenway area — home of the Boston Red Sox baseball team — attracts

students from nearby schools.” 芬威区-波士顿红袜棒球队主场，吸引了附近学校的学生。可知“The

Fenway area”吸引学生过来是因为学生对运动感兴趣。根据题意，故选B。

3. 细节理解题。根据“often organizes free student performances in such picture-perfect locations

as the Boston Harbor National Park.” 经常组织这样的免费学生表演在波士顿港国家公园。选项A正

确，选项C错误；选项B文章未提及邀请大牌明星表演；根据“which attracts top international talent

and counts the band Passion Pit among its alumni (男校友)” 吸引国际顶尖人才和Passion Pit乐

队。选项D错误。根据题意，故选A。

4. 细节理解题。根据“The Museum of Fine Arts, one of Boston ’ s leading cultural institutions,

is free for students carrying ID” 美术博物馆是波士顿主要的文化机构之一，它是免费为学生提供身

份证。根据题意，故选C。

Known as “wolf girl” at her West Warwick, R.I., school, Alyssa Grayson has spent much of

her young life teaching others to protect and respect animals. After starting a wolf club in second

grade, Alyssa learned all she could about her favorite animals. Today, she gives presentations

about protecting wolves at libraries and schools — she’s even spoken at a university. In fact,

she’s become such a wolf expert that she was appointed as the first junior advisor to the National

Wolfwatcher Coalition.

When she’s not teaching others about wolves, Alyssa can be found volunteering at her local

animal shelter, taking care of dogs and cats. She’s also trained as a citizen scientist for Frog

第页

Watch USA. In short, Alyssa Grayson proves that you are never too young to make a difference for

animals.

When asked how she got interested in saving wolves, Alyssa says, “I’ve loved wolves since

I saw them in a movie when I was 2 or 3 years old. Then one day I saw a commercial about wolf

hunting. I asked my mother why people do this, and she told me because people don’t like wolves.

I decided from then that I wanted to save wolves.”

Today, wolves are hunted, trapped, or poisoned. Hunters chase wolves for miles in an airplane

until the wolves are too exhausted to run anymore. Then they shoot them. The animal doesn’t have

a chance to escape. Animals are also trapped for their fur. They are left to suffer in a trap

with no food, water, or shelter. Alyssa thinks the fur looks better on the animal in the wild,

where it’s meant to be, than on a human.

Alyssa believes wolves are important to our worlds. She says, “Wolves are an apex predator,

which means they are at the top of the food chain. Removing them from the ecosystem is a big mistake.

The ecosystem is like a chain of dominoes (多米诺骨牌)—with the apex predator as the one in front.

If you were to knock down that domino, the rest of the chain would go down too.”

People usually think of “the Big Bad Wolf” when they hear about wolves. However, Alyssa

says, “If they would base their thoughts on facts, not fairy tales, we wouldn’t have people

wanting to kill wolves.”

A. she keeps wolves as pets

C. the tools used to hunt wolves

D. how wolves are treated

8. From the last paragraph we can infer that Alyssa .

A. doesn’t need fairy tales

B. doesn’t believe in fairy tales

C. encourages people to find out the facts about wolves

D. believes that more people will work to save wolves

【答案】5. C 6. B 7. D 8. C

【解析】文章主要讲述了艾丽莎在二年级开始一个狼俱乐部之后，她开始知道她最喜欢的动物是狼。她呼

吁人们客观的去对待这种动物，不要因为童话故事对它存在偏见。

5. 细节理解题。根据文章“Known as “wolf girl” at her West Warwick, R.I., school, Alyssa Grayson

about her favorite animals. Today, she gives presentations about protecting wolves at libraries

and schools — she’s even spoken at a university.” 在二年级开始一个狼俱乐部之后，艾丽莎知道

了她最喜欢的动物。今天，她在图书馆和学校做关于保护狼的演讲——她甚至在一所大学里演讲过。可知

选项C错误；根据“In fact, she’s become such a wolf expert that she was appointed as the first

junior advisor to the National Wolfwatcher Coalition.” 事实上，她成为了一个狼的专家，她被任

命为国家狼观察者联盟第一初级顾问。选项D错误；根据文章第二段描述她除了关心狼之外，她还照顾其

他的动物：猫、狗，还成为青蛙观察者。根据题意，故选B。

7. 主旨大意题。文章第四段主要讲述了狼被猎杀、被困或中毒。人们甚至为了它的皮毛不断地去猎杀，不

给它逃生的机会，可知该段讲述了狼是如何被对待的。根据题意，故选D。

8. 推理判断题。根据“People usually think of “the Big Bad Wolf” when they hear about wolves.

However, Alyssa says, “If they would base their thoughts on facts, not fairy tales, we wouldn’

t have people wanting to kill wolves.””当人们提到狼的时候往往说“大坏狼”。如果人们把想法建立

在事实的基础上，而不是童话上，我们人类就没有人想要杀死他们。可推知艾丽莎鼓励人们要客观的去对

待，看到狼真实的一面。根据题意，故选C。

The value of the U.S. penny has been dropping for years. Many countries have stopped using

pennies. Is it time for the U.S. to do the same?

Those who think we should keep the U.S. penny offer the following arguments to support their

positions:

Prices will increase. If we get rid of the penny, everything will have to be rounded to the

nickel (五分硬币), costing us more for everything we buy.

Charities need pennies. There are thousands of small charities that depend on pennies to

bring in donations. People think nothing of pouring out their old penny jars to support charity,

but they won’t part with nickels so easily.

Nickels cost even more to make. If we get rid of the penny, we will need more nickels in

circulation. Nickels cost 7.7 cents to make, 2.7 cents over face value, as opposed to 0.26 cents

over face value to make a penny. Since the penny costs 0.26 more than face value to make, the

Mint (铸币厂) can make 5 pennies and still lose less money than making 1 nickel.

People who want to retire the penny also have some persuasive arguments, including these:

Pennies waste time. The average American wastes 2.4 hours a year handling pennies, or waiting

for people who handle them. This statistics is the result of collecting a number of penny-handling

related events, including the 30-second period we sometimes spend waiting for someone who just

has to dig through their pockets or purse to find that last cent so they can pay for something

with exact change (probably so they don’t get stuck with any more pennies).

Making pennies wastes taxpayers’ money. It costs the U.S. Mint 1.26 cents to make each 1

cent coin, meaning that taxpayers are losing 0.26 of a cent for each one of the 7.4 billion pennies

the Mint produces each year.

History will repeat itself. In 1857, the Mint stopped making the half-cent coin, partly

because the cost of making it was considered to be no longer needed. Yet, commerce continued without

any catastrophic effects. History has shown us that updating the monetary supply in countries

where the currency (货币) is very stable has had little, if any, negative effect on the economy,

or on people’s acceptance of the coinage.

9. According to people who want to keep the penny, getting rid of the penny .

A. is good for ordinary consumers

第页

B. is especially bad for rich people

C. will be convenient for them

D. may lead to fewer donations to small charities

10. Why do pennies waste time?

A. Because consumers don’t always have enough change.

B. Because it takes time for people to get them from their pockets or purse.

C. Because pennies are not easy to take.

D. Because pennies are difficult to collect.

11. The underlined word “catastrophic” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “ ”.

A. direct B. positive

C. important D. disastrous

12. The text is mainly developed by .

A. giving examples

B. setting down general rules

C. comparing different opinions

D. following the natural time order

【答案】9. D 10. B 11. D 12. C

【解析】本文是议论文，文章就美国是否应该淘汰一分硬币列出了正反双方的观点。

10. 推理判断题。根据“The average American wastes 2.4 hours a year handling pennies, or waiting

for people who handle them.”美国人平均每年要花2.4个小时来处理零钱，或者等待人们递给他。可知

人们需要花费时间从口袋里或钱包里拿出来。根据题意，故选B。

11. 词义猜测题。根据“History has shown us that updating the monetary supply in countries where

the currency (货币) is very stable has had little, if any, negative effect on the economy”历

史表明在一个货币稳定的国家调整货币供给对经济的负面影响即便有也是很小的。据此，可推测取消硬币
