篇章導(dǎo)讀：本文是一篇新聞報(bào)道。文章報(bào)道了今年颶風(fēng)Harvey已兩次登陸得克薩斯州，

由最初的4級降為3級。但是，根據(jù)國家氣象預(yù)報(bào)，在未來幾天，它仍可能帶來龍卷風(fēng)和強(qiáng)

降雨天氣，并引發(fā)洪水和風(fēng)暴潮災(zāi)害。

21.WhatcategorywasHurricaneHarveywhenithitthenortheasternshoreofCopano

Bay?

A.4.B.3.

C.2.D.1.

確。

22.HowmanytimeshaveCategory4stormsstruckTexassince1961?

A.4times.B.3times.

C.Twice.D.Once.

答案：C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句中的“thelastCategory4stormtohit

一次，總共是兩次。

D.Towarnitsreadersthebadweathertobebroughtandthedisasterstobecaused

byHurricaneHarvey.

答案：D推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段之后的敘述可知，新聞機(jī)構(gòu)報(bào)道所在國的國家氣象和

災(zāi)害預(yù)告旨在提醒讀者防范颶風(fēng)Harvey仍可能帶來的龍卷風(fēng)和強(qiáng)降雨天氣，以及引發(fā)的洪水

和巨浪災(zāi)害。

篇章導(dǎo)讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述作者遇到大暴雨，被好心人幫助，隨后作

者又給予回報(bào)的故事。

31.A根據(jù)空處前一句可知，當(dāng)“我”離開超市開車回去時(shí)，天氣變得更糟了；據(jù)此可

推知，空處應(yīng)是說天氣變得更糟后的狀況，故A項(xiàng)符合語境。

32.D根據(jù)空處前一句一位年輕人向“我”揮手，讓“我”將車停在他的車道里；據(jù)此

可推知，“我”很感謝他讓“我”免遭暴風(fēng)雨，故D項(xiàng)與此處匹配。

33.G根據(jù)空處前一句他從車庫里拿了條毯子蓋住“我”的車;結(jié)合常識和語境可推知，

他不介意被雨淋濕，故G項(xiàng)符合語境。

34.F根據(jù)空處前一句可知，上午十一點(diǎn)時(shí)，電力和電話服務(wù)都中斷了；據(jù)此可推知，

作者無法聯(lián)系家人，故F項(xiàng)符合語境。

35.B結(jié)合上文敘述的Trent對“我”的幫助可推知，“我”對他們的幫助表示感謝，

這對夫妻非常謙遜，故B項(xiàng)符合語境。

第三部分語言運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)，滿分45分）

第一節(jié)完形填空（共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分）

閱讀下面的短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出可以填入空白處

篇章導(dǎo)讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了作者一次驚險(xiǎn)的乘坐飛機(jī)的經(jīng)歷。從中作者

也深受啟發(fā)，明白了要享受當(dāng)下，享受每一刻。

36.A.mistakeB.delay

C.changeD.wind

答案：B根據(jù)下句"Asandstorm...tocloseallbutonerunway.”可知，因沙塵

暴的緣故只剩下一條跑道讓飛機(jī)降落，由此推斷飛機(jī)應(yīng)延時(shí)降落，故選B。

37.A.forcedB.warned

C.sweptD.reminded

答案：A根據(jù)語境及常識可知，由于沙塵暴天氣的緣故，機(jī)場不得不關(guān)閉了所有的飛機(jī)

跑道，只剩下其中一個(gè)，force...todosth.“迫使……做某事”，其他選項(xiàng)均不符合語

境,故選A。

38.A.watchingB.visiting

C.circlingD.crossing

答案：c由常識推斷，飛機(jī)在等待降落的過程中應(yīng)該是繞城市上空盤旋。故選a

39.A.arriveB.enter

C.stopD.land

答案：D根據(jù)上文可知，由于飛機(jī)跑道的關(guān)閉，作者乘坐的飛機(jī)必須在空中盤旋以等待

降落。

40.A.ifB.though

C.becauseD.while

答案：C根據(jù)空格后的“theremightbeafewbumps（顛簸）”可知，此處是乘務(wù)人

員告訴乘客系緊安全帶的原因，所以此處應(yīng)用because引導(dǎo)原因狀語從句，故選C。

41.A.lightB.pale

C.darkD.quick

答案：B固定短語palebycomparison"相比之下微不足道，相形見細(xì)”，此處用以

強(qiáng)調(diào)飛機(jī)在空中劇烈顛簸，比過山車還要驚險(xiǎn)。

42.A.sickB.nervous

C.angryD.afraid

答案：A根據(jù)后面的“useairsickness（暈機(jī)）bags"可知，幾名乘客在猛烈的顛簸

下感到惡心、難受，所以選A。

43.A.emptyB.narrow

C.secretD.open
