Marie Lantelme! The name struck me from somewhere in the back of my mind. Miss Lantelme, as I called her in my youth, worked as a librarian at the East Meadow Public Library when I was a pre-teen girl.
On one occasion, in search of a book to read, I walked slowly over to the desk taken up by a librarian-Miss Lantelme. Serious, polite, and speaking with the voice of a professional(专业的) librarian, she asked what kind of book I liked to read. I thought about it for a few seconds and replied, “Mysteries(悬疑小说).” When I first learned to read, my grandfather gave me a book called The Smugglers of Sandy Bay. It was written by Ruth Holberg and still takes a place in my book collection. I sometimes hold it in my hand to reconnect with its mystical power.
Miss Lantelme told me to follow her, and she led me into the mystery part and pointed me in the direction of books written by Agatha Christie. Miss Lantelme handed me a book called The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. I will not tell the ending to anyone who has never read that book, but I loved the surprise that I never saw coming. Every week I dug deep into the works of that uncommon writer whose stories still attract me now.
On one occasion Miss Lantelme handed me a book written by John le Carre. The title of the book is The Spy Who Came in from the Cold. For years, I waited for each new book by the recognized master of spy thrillers. Of course, I wished Miss Lantelme to hand the new mystery of John le Carre to me.
All these memories flashed through my mind while I sweated my way through my work—out of breath, giving thanks to the librarians of the world, like Miss Lantelme, who gave me a lifetime of joy, not only the stories.
29. What made the author interested in mysteries
A. The book her grandfather gave to her. B. The unknown feeling of a pre-teen girl.
C. The professional service of Lantelme. D. The opinion her grandfather gave to her.
30. What can we infer about the author from paragraph 3
A. She was interested in Agatha’s works B. She took exercise around the library.
C. She bought a book from Lantelme. D. She went to Lantelme’s home.
31. Which is the best title for the text
A. An Impressive Book B. Lifelong Joy from My Grandfather
C. A Happy Memory for the Books D. Three Books the Author Wanted to Read
【答案】29. A 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要介绍了作者的爷爷以及图书管理员Lantelme指引作者爱上书籍，这给了作者一生的快乐。
【29题详解】

C
In recent years, the number of young adults returning to their parents’ homes after leaving has risen. This is the Boomerang Generation, becoming independent only to return to their parents’ homes like boomerangs. A boomerang is a curved(呈弯曲状的) stick that, when thrown in a particular way, comes back to the person who threw it.
One of our family members had a college roommate who dropped out(辍学) and went back to her parents because she was unable to wash her clothes. This is quite a funny example, but stories like these are plentiful. The dropout and many other young adults are often short of basic life skills, so they move out of the family home for a time and then boomerang right back.
We believe having more real-life learning in high school may solve young adults’ inability to become independent. This can be achieved through simply including extra Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills requirements for life skills. The TEKS would include learning about taxes(税), banking, health, voting(选举), job interviews, cooking, and many other important skills.
These areas of study happen to go with required courses. For learning how to do taxes, we would want to include a TEKS in math classes. In an economics class, we would require students to learn about banking and housing. In history class, students would have to learn about the importance of voting. In English class, students could learn about jobs. Cooking would be added to health class.
If in high school we can teach these skills, graduates going to college or trade school won’t need to worry about their living skills and can focus on their education. More students can finish their studies and get degrees. And once out of college or trade school, young people can focus on their jobs and responsibilities as adults. Thus jobs will be done better, people will better understand their role in society and be better rounded as both students and individuals(个人).
32. Which of the following best describes the Boomerang Generation
A. They depend on their parents. B. They show great interest in sports.
C. They like to take on new challenges. D. They want to leave their parents’ homes.
33. Why does the author give the example in paragraph 2
A. To attract readers with a funny story.
B. To offer some advice for college dropouts.
C. To explain the cause of boomeranging back.
D. To show the Boomerang Generation’s influence.
34. What does the author say about the TEKS
A. It is easy for students to learn the TEKS.
B. They can be included in required courses.
C. More life skills should be added to the TEKS.
D. The TEKS proves to be important to students.
35. What would the author like high schools to do
A. Teach students life skills. B. Work together with parents.
C. Accept the Boomerang Generation. D. Offer more support to trade schools.
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了“回巢族”这一社会现象。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“This is the Boomerang Generation, becoming independent only to return to their parents’ homes like boomerangs.(这就是“回巢族”，他们独立后像回巢镖一样回到父母家)”可知，回巢族在外无法生存后，会选择回到父母家。由此推知，他们非常依赖父母。故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段最后一句“The dropout and many other young adults are often short of basic life skills, so they move out of the family home for a time and then boomerang right back.(辍学生和许多其他年轻人往往缺乏基本的生活技能，所以他们搬出家一段时间，然后又回来了)”可推知，第二段所举的例子是为了来解释这些人回家的原因。故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段第一句“These areas of study happen to go with required courses(这些领域的学习恰好与必修课程相吻合)”可知，TEKS可以纳入必修课的范畴。故选B。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“If in high school we can teach these skills, graduates going to college or trade school won’t need to worry about their living skills and can focus on their education.(如果我们在高中就能教授这些技能，上大学或职业学校的毕业生就不需要担心他们的生活技能，而可以专注于他们的教育)”可知，作者希望高中就能教学生学习技能。故选A。

【37题详解】
根据空格前一句“You can ask yourself “Is this something I can change ”(可以问问自己“我能改变吗 ”)”可知，下文应该是对这个问题进行回答。所以B项If so, start doing something to change the situation(如果是这样，开始做点什么来改变这种情况)就是对上文进行肯定的回答，此处的so指代上文的问题。故选B。
【38题详解】
根据空格下文“Instead of being angry about the traffic, find some gratitude(与其为交通而生气，不如心怀感激)”可知，上文应该讲述遇到交通问题时的态度。所以C项When you are stuck in traffic, change your attitude(当你遇到交通堵塞时，改变你的态度)引出下文。故选C。
【39题详解】
根据本段小标题“Relax, relax, relax. ”可知，本段应该介绍如何在遇到压力时进行放松。所以D项Try to find something that you enjoy and do it every day(试着找到你喜欢做的事情，每天都做)就是很好的放松方法。故选D。
【40题详解】
根据下文“Look at your stressful situation from a “big picture” point of view(从“大局”的角度来看你的压力状况)”可知，本段主要讲述要从大局观来看待压力。所以A项Look at the big picture(放眼大局)符合本段大意。故选A。

第四部分 写作(共两节，满分35分)
第一节 汉译英(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分，满分 10 分)
51. 没什么比跨文化的下午茶更好了。(汉译英)
【答案】There is nothing better than a cross-cultural afternoon tea.
【解析】
【详解】考查there be句型，名词，比较级。“跨文化的”英文表达为“cross-cultural”，“下午茶”英文表达为“afternoon tea”，“没有什么东西”可以使用there be 句型，即There is nothing。“好”英文表达为“good”，比较级形式为“better”，“比……更好”英文表达为“better than”。连词组句则为There is nothing better than a cross-cultural afternoon tea。故翻译为：There is nothing better than a cross-cultural afternoon tea。
52. 昨夜一定下雨了，因为地面是湿的。（汉译英）
【答案】It must have rained last night, for the ground is wet.
【解析】
【详解】考查“must have done”用法、时态、名词和形容词。表示“昨夜一定下雨了”应用“It must have rained last night”，“must have done”表示对过去事情有把握的肯定推测，意为“一定是做某事了”。逗号后的句子陈述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时，用并列连词for连接句子，表示“因为”，表示“地面是湿的”应用“the ground is wet”，为“主系表”结构。故翻译为It must have rained last night, for the ground is wet.
53. 最令人惊叹的是人与自然和谐共处的方式。(汉译英)
【答案】What is most significant is the way in which people have worked in harmony with nature.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态、从句和短语。分析可知，主句是主系表结构；“最令人惊叹的是”可处理为what引导的主语从句且从充当主语，“最令人惊叹的”是most significant；“方式”是way，作表语，此处为特指；“人与自然和谐共处的”处理为修饰the way的定语从句，先行词是the way且在从句中作状语时，可用in which引导从句，“与自然和谐共处”可表达为work in harmony with nature，此处陈述过去动作对现在造成的影响，用现在完成时。综上，故翻译为：What is most significant is the way in which people have worked in harmony with nature.
54. 我们可以围坐在餐桌前，享受美食和团聚的乐趣。(汉译英)
【答案】All of us would sit around the table, enjoying the food and being together again.
【解析】
【详解】考查短语和非谓语动词。“我们所有人”英文表达为：all of us，“围坐在桌子前”英文表达为：sit around the table， “享受美食”英文表达为：enjoy the food，“团圆”英文表达为：be together，用现在分词作伴随状语。根据句意可知，动作发生在过去，所以应使用情态动词would，故翻译为：All of us would sit around the table, enjoying the food and being together again.
55. 我昨天是街上碰到李华的。(用强调句型强调地点状语)(汉译英)
【答案】It was in the street that I met Li Hua yesterday.
【解析】
【详解】考查短语、时态和强调句。 in the street 在大街上。强调句的结构为It is/was +强调部分+that从句，本句强调地点状语 in the street。根据时间状语yesterday可知，用一般过去时。根据句意，故翻译为It was in the street that I met Li Hua yesterday.

Best Miami Hotels for Families

Marie Lantelme! The name struck me from somewhere in the back of my mind. Miss Lantelme, as I called her in my youth, worked as a librarian at the East Meadow Public Library when I was a pre-teen girl.
On one occasion, in search of a book to read, I walked slowly over to the desk taken up by a librarian-Miss Lantelme. Serious, polite, and speaking with the voice of a professional(专业的) librarian, she asked what kind of book I liked to read. I thought about it for a few seconds and replied, “Mysteries(悬疑小说).” When I first learned to read, my grandfather gave me a book called The Smugglers of Sandy Bay. It was written by Ruth Holberg and still takes a place in my book collection. I sometimes hold it in my hand to reconnect with its mystical power.
Miss Lantelme told me to follow her, and she led me into the mystery part and pointed me in the direction of books written by Agatha Christie. Miss Lantelme handed me a book called The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. I will not tell the ending to anyone who has never read that book, but I loved the surprise that I never saw coming. Every week I dug deep into the works of that uncommon writer whose stories still attract me now.
On one occasion, Miss Lantelme handed me a book written by John le Carre. The title of the book is The Spy Who Came in from the Cold. For years, I waited for each new book by the recognized master of spy thrillers. Of course, I wished Miss Lantelme to hand the new mystery of John le Carre to me.
All these memories flashed through my mind while I sweated my way through my work—out of breath, giving thanks to the librarians of the world, like Miss Lantelme, who gave me a lifetime of joy, not only the stories.
29. What made the author interested in mysteries
A. The book her grandfather gave to her. B. The unknown feeling of a pre-teen girl.
C. The professional service of Lantelme. D. The opinion her grandfather gave to her.
30. What can we infer about the author from paragraph 3
A. She was interested in Agatha’s works B. She took exercise around the library.
C. She bought a book from Lantelme. D. She went to Lantelme’s home.
31. Which is the best title for the text
A. An Impressive Book B. Lifelong Joy from My Grandfather
C. A Happy Memory for the Books D. Three Books the Author Wanted to Read
C
In recent years, the number of young adults returning to their parents’ homes after leaving has risen. This is the Boomerang Generation, becoming independent only to return to their parents’ homes like boomerangs. A boomerang is a curved(呈弯曲状的) stick that, when thrown in a particular way, comes back to the person who threw it.
One of our family members had a college roommate who dropped out(辍学) and went back to her parents because she was unable to wash her clothes. This is quite a funny example, but stories like these are plentiful. The dropout and many other young adults are often short of basic life skills, so they move out of the family home for a time and then boomerang right back.
We believe having more real-life learning in high school may solve young adults’ inability to become independent. This can be achieved through simply including extra Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills requirements for life skills. The TEKS would include learning about taxes(税), banking, health, voting(选举), job interviews, cooking, and many other important skills.
These areas of study happen to go with required courses. For learning how to do taxes, we would want to include a TEKS in math classes. In an economics class, we would require students to learn about banking and housing. In history class, students would have to learn about the importance of voting. In English class, students could learn about jobs. Cooking would be added to health class.
If in high school we can teach these skills, graduates going to college or trade school won’t need to worry about their living skills and can focus on their education. More students can finish their studies and get degrees. And once out of college or trade school, young people can focus on their jobs and responsibilities as adults. Thus jobs will be done better, people will better understand their role in society and be better rounded as both students and individuals(个人).
32. Which of the following best describes the Boomerang Generation
A. They depend on their parents. B. They show great interest in sports.
C. They like to take on new challenges. D. They want to leave their parents’ homes.
33. Why does the author give the example in paragraph 2
A. To attract readers with a funny story.
B. To offer some advice for college dropouts.
C. To explain the cause of boomeranging back.
D. To show the Boomerang Generation’s influence.
34. What does the author say about the TEKS
A. It is easy for students to learn the TEKS.
B. They can be included in required courses.
C. More life skills should be added to the TEKS.
D. The TEKS proves to be important to students.
35. What would the author like high schools to do
A. Teach students life skills. B. Work together with parents.
C Accept the Boomerang Generation. D. Offer more support to trade schools.
