While a few cities provide a ghostly atmosphere all year round, annual festivals, theme park pop-up events and other haunted happenings elsewhere have helped make the holiday a travel mini-season all its own.New Orleans Home to year-round cemetery walks, New Orleans is among the cities that naturally harmonize with Halloween. Worth noting every October is the family-friendly Halloween parade, happening this year on Oct. 21, with floats devoted to themes like werewolves and vampires. Float riders throw locally made candies to the crowd. New Orleans hosts plenty of after-event-parties, but the procession itself draws all ages in costume.Whitby, EnglandThis picturesque town on Englands Yorkshire coast is considered to be the home of Dracula, though in a different way. Bram Stoker spent just a month in Whitby, but those four weeks in July and August 1890 were important in the creation of his most famous book, “Dracula”, which was published in 1897. Whitby celebrated the 125th anniversary of Stokers visit in 2015, but this year you can see the skeletal remains of Whitby Abbey illuminated throughout the final week of October.Salem, MassachusettsHome to the infamous witch trials of the early 1690s, it should come as no surprise that this town is a hotbed for Halloween activity. One way Salem builds on its spectral past is with the nearly month-long festival of the Dead. Events starting from mid-October this year include psychic readings, mourning-themed tea and on Halloween night, a witches gathering.Orlando, FloridaThe home of Disney World and Universal Studios goes all-out with huge Halloween events. Universal this year will hold its 27th Halloween Horror Night on Oct. 30, a seasonal pop-up featuring haunted houses and “scareactors” employed to frighten visitors. Plus, there are many other activities like trick-or-treating, Disney character encounters, a Halloween ball and fireworks.1. Which of the following is most recommended for a family going together?A. New Orleans.B. Whitby, England.C. Salem, Massachusetts.D. Orlando, Florida.2. Where do Halloween activities last the longest this year?A. New Orleans.B. Whitby, England.C. Salem, Massachusetts.D. Orlando, Florida.3. What can you do in Orlando, Florida ?A. Have mourning-themed tea.B. Enjoy dancing.C. Watch Disney movies.D. See skeletal remains.【答案】1. A2. C3. B【語(yǔ)篇解讀】這是一篇應(yīng)用文。文章介紹了在一些城市，萬(wàn)圣節(jié)以年度節(jié)日、主題公園的快閃活動(dòng)和其他的一些鬧鬼事件為體現(xiàn)形式，形成了一個(gè)獨(dú)立的旅游小假日。1. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一個(gè)黑色小標(biāo)題下“Worth noting every October is the family-friendly Halloween parade, happening this year on Oct. 21, with floats devoted to themes like werewolves and vampires.（值得注意的是，每年10月都會(huì)舉行適合家庭的萬(wàn)圣節(jié)游行，今年的萬(wàn)圣節(jié)游行將于10月21日舉行，花車主題包括狼人和吸血鬼。）”文中的“family-friendly”和題干中的“a family going together”相呼應(yīng)。故選A項(xiàng)。2. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。本題問的是“今年哪里的萬(wàn)圣節(jié)活動(dòng)持續(xù)的時(shí)間最長(zhǎng)”。根據(jù)第一個(gè)小黑標(biāo)題下的“happening this year on Oct. 21”可知New Orleans的萬(wàn)圣節(jié)活動(dòng)時(shí)間是一天。根據(jù)第二個(gè)小黑標(biāo)題下的“but this year you can see the skeletal remains of Whitby Abbey illuminated throughout the final week of October.（但今年你可以看到惠特比修道院的遺骸將照亮整個(gè)10月的最后一周。）”可知Whitby, England的萬(wàn)圣節(jié)活動(dòng)時(shí)間是一周。根據(jù)第三個(gè)小黑標(biāo)題下的“One way Salem builds on its spectral past is with the nearly month-long festival of the Dead. （塞勒姆建立在過去幽靈般的歷史上的一種方式是伴隨近一個(gè)月的亡靈節(jié)。）”可知Salem, Massachusetts的萬(wàn)圣節(jié)活動(dòng)時(shí)間是將近一個(gè)月。根據(jù)第四個(gè)小黑標(biāo)題下的“Universal this year will hold its 27th Halloween Horror Night on Oct. 30”可知Orlando, Florida的萬(wàn)圣節(jié)活動(dòng)時(shí)間是一天。故選C項(xiàng)。3. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)題干中的“Orlando, Florida”可將答案定位在第四個(gè)小黑標(biāo)題下。由最后一句話中的“a Halloween ball and fireworks.（萬(wàn)圣節(jié)舞會(huì)和煙火。）”可知在這個(gè)活動(dòng)中你可以跳舞。故選B項(xiàng)。BOn November 7, Lewis Pugh completed a one-kilometer swim in the freezing waters of King Edward Cove, off South Georgia in Antarctica. He was wearing only his swimming glasses, cap and speedos!Pugh is an advocate for our oceans and seas, working to protect these ecosystem with their large diversity of marine life. When asked why he doesnt wear a wetsuit, Lewis says, “I ask world leaders to do everything they can to protect our oceans. Sometimes the steps they need to take are difficult and unpopular. If Im asking them to be courageous, I must also be. Swimming in a wetsuit would not send the right message.”It took Pugh about 19 minutes to complete the one-kilometer swim in Antarctica where the water averaged about 1.6 degrees Celsius . He says that his body can only tolerate about 20 minutes in the freezing waters before it starts shutting down. As he swims, his body temperature steadily drops, which in turn causes his muscle control to drop, slowing him down. When he is done with his swim, his support team rushes him to a hot shower and it takes almost an hour for his body temperature to return to normal.Doctors and Pugh caution that one must receive months of training to swim in such cold waters. Even expert swimmers who are unused to freezing water can drown within minutes because of the physical shock experienced by the body. Pugh says he trained for six months before this swim.This is not the first time that Lewis has swum in dangerous conditions. In 2007, he swam one kilometer in the North Pole to draw attention to the melting Arctic ice due to climate change. In 2015, he swam in the Bay of Whales in Antarcticas Ross Sea as part of his successful campaign to help set up a marine reserve there.4. Why did Lewis Pugh swim without a wetsuit?A. To swim faster.B. To show his bravery.C. To build up his body.D. To win public attention.5. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. His body.B. The water.C. His body temperature.D. The water temperature.6. Whats Pughs advice about swimming in freezing waters?A. One must be fully prepared.B. One should be expert at swimming.C. One should be ready to take on challenges.D. One must be used to long-distance swimming.7. What may be the best title for the text?A. Lewis Pugh: swimming for a causeB. How to survive a swim in cold watersC. How to prepare for extreme swimmingD. Lewis Pugh: achieving the impossible【答案】4. B5. A6. A7. A【語(yǔ)篇解讀】這是一篇記敘文。主要講述了Lewis Pugh為了呼吁政府采取措施保護(hù)海洋而在南極海洋水溫很低的情況下，不穿防寒泳衣游泳的勇敢事跡。4. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段的I ask world leaders to do everything they can to protect our oceans. Sometimes the steps they need to take are difficult and unpopular. If Im asking them to be courageous, I must also be. Swimming in a wetsuit would not send the right message.可知，他不穿防寒泳衣的原因是展示他的勇敢，故選B。5. 詞義猜測(cè)題。此題要結(jié)合上文語(yǔ)境He says that his body can only tolerate about 20 minutes in the freezing waters before可知他在冰水里游泳身體只能忍受20分鐘，下文中提到他游泳時(shí)體溫在慢慢下降，肌肉控制力也在下降，可推測(cè)出此處的it指的是his body，故選A。6. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段的Doctors and Pugh caution that one must receive months of training to swim in such cold waters.可知，一個(gè)人要想在冰冷的水里游泳必須得訓(xùn)練很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間才可以，即要做足準(zhǔn)備工作才行，故選A。7. 主旨大意題。文章主要講述的是Pugh為保護(hù)海洋而在極寒的水里游泳，他用行動(dòng)去展示他保護(hù)海洋的決心和勇氣，由此可知A項(xiàng)是最佳標(biāo)題。CAttending college can be expensive, and applying to college can be costly as well.

Millions of wild animals begin their 1,800-mile journey northwards on their annual migratory (遷移的) route.In the month of November, polar bears in their thousands cross the Canadian Arctic, as they head towards the ice sheets of Hudson Bay. The sea ice that forms every winter is the key to the bears managing to exist, for here they hunt for seals (海豹).The Great Bustard, one of the heaviest flying birds, migrates each year across Europe and Asia to its wintering grounds. Unluckily, these and other migratory animals are in danger from human activity.We have written several articles on climate change and the effect of rising ocean temperatures. Since 1979, ice sheets in the Arctic have gone down by 30 percent. What does this mean for polar bears? They are forced to stay on land for longer periods of time, which delays their search for food. As a result, bears today are 60 pounds lighter than what they were. Besides, smaller bears also produce weaker babies, and their chances of survival are at risk. In the plains of Africa, migratory animals like gazelles are traveling long distances for food, just to avoid falling prey (犧牲品) to humans who hunt them.In an unusual step, experts from 120 countries have agreed to protect 31 migratory mammals, fish and birds. The United Nations 11th annual Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS) was held in Quito, Ecuador. For the first time, 900 experts attended the conference, and the enthusiastic support shows the world is united in conservation (保護(hù)) efforts.What does getting on a protected list mean? Countries that have signed the agreement will be required to pass laws locally and work with other countries that fall within the animals migratory path. Only one animal did not make the list. The African lion was rejected (拒絕) for lack of information of the countries where it lives.12. What can we learn from the passage?A. The Great Bustard is one of the largest flying birds.B. The weight of polar bears today is lighter than what it was.C. In the 1970s, ice sheets went down by 30 percent.D. 120 experts have agreed to protect 21 migratory animals.13. Why was the African lion not included in the list from the passage?A. We dont know which countries it lives in.B. It isnt a migratory animal.C. Experts were not interested in this animal.D. It was not traveling long distances for food.14. The writer writes this passage aiming to _.A. let us know about the animalsB. prevent the rare animals from dying outC. inform us of the effects of climate changeD. draw our attention to helping the migratory animals15. All these factors have probably put the migratory animals in danger EXCEPT _.A. some human activity B. the enthusiastic support from expertsC. rising ocean temperatures D. climate change【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. B 【語(yǔ)篇解讀】本文是一篇生態(tài)環(huán)保類說明文，介紹了很多野生動(dòng)物在遷徙途中遭受人類的捕殺或受到人類活動(dòng)的影響導(dǎo)致數(shù)量急劇下降，在聯(lián)合國(guó)第11屆野生動(dòng)物遷徙物種年度保護(hù)大會(huì)上，專家們呼吁世界各國(guó)聯(lián)合起來(lái)保護(hù)遷徙物種。12. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“As a result, bears today are 60 pounds lighter than what they were.”可知，現(xiàn)在北極熊的體重比原來(lái)少了60磅，故B項(xiàng)正確。13. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Only one animal did not make the list.
