【答案】
【1】which
【2】compared
【3】As
【解析】
本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者参加第六届联合国经济及社会理事会青年论坛的感想。
【1】考查非限定性定语从句。句意:我很幸运地参加了今年1月在纽约举行的第六届联合国经济及社会理事会青年论坛。此处为非限定性定语从句,关系词指代先行词the sixth UN Economic and Social Council Youth Forum,并在从句中作主语,故填which。
【2】考查非谓语动词。句意:我觉得我以前担心的事情,比如考试或者在学校的表现,和他们试图解决的全球性问题相比,都是那么的微不足道。things I used to worry about与compare之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,表示被动,用过去分词作状语,故填compared。
【3】考查介词。句意:作为年轻人,我们应该更加关注所有人面临的主要问题,如贫困、环境问题和医疗保健。根据句意可知此处表示“作为”,故填As。

【题目】 People have grown taller over the last century, with South Korean women shooting up by more than 20cm on average, and Iranian men gaining 16.5cm. A global study looked at the average height of 18-year-olds in 200 countries between 1914 and 2014.
The results show that while Swedes were the tallest people in the world in 1914, Dutch men have risen from 12th place to claim top spot with an average height of 182.5cm. Latvian women, meanwhile, rose from 28th place in 1914 to become the tallest in the world a century later, with an average height of 169.8cm.
James Bentham, a co-author of the research from Imperial College, London, says the global trend is likely to be due to improvements in nutrition and healthcare.“An individual’s genetics has a big influence on their height, but once you average over whole populations, genetics plays a less key role,” he added.
A little extra height brings a number of advantages, says Elio Riboli of Imperial College.“Being taller is associated with longer life expectancy,”he said.“This is largely due to a lower risk of dying of cardiovascular(心血管的)disease among taller people.”
But while height has increased around the world, the trend in many African countries causes concern, says Riboli. While height increased in Uganda and Niger during the early 20th century, the trend has reversed in recent years, with height decreasing among 18-year-olds.
“One reason for these decreases in height is the economic situation in the 1980s,”said Alexander Moradi of the
University of Sussex. The nutritional and health crises that followed the policy of structural adjustment, he says, led to many children and teenagers failing to reach their full potential(潜力)in terms of height.
Bentham believes the global trend of increasing height has important implications “How. tall we are now is strongly influenced by the environment we grew up in,” he said.“If we give children the best possible start in life now, they will be healthier and more productive for decades to come.”
【1】What does the global study tell us about people’s height in the last century?
A.The increase in people’s height has been quickening.
B.The increase in women’s height is bigger than in men’s.
C.There is a remarkable difference across continents.
D.There has been a noticeable increase in most countries.
【2】What does Elio Riboli say about taller people?
A.They enjoy an easier life.B.They tend to live longer.
C.They risk fewer deadly diseases.D.They have greater expectations in life.
【3】What does the underlined word “reversed” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A.Slowed down.B.Gone upwards.
C.Changed to the contrary.D.Come to life again.
【4】What does James Bentham suggest we do?
A.Ensure children’s proper nutrition and healthcare.
B.Improve the economic situation of some countries.
C.Watch the global trend of increasing height closely.
D.Attach great importance to environmental protection.

【题目】阅读下面,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。(满分25分)
Christine closed the door to Anna’s room. Inside, her classmate and friend had fallen asleep.
Downstairs, Christine’s mom, Donna, was grasping Anna’s mother Sheila around the shoulders.
“We should go,” she said. “Get some rest, huh?” Sheila nodded, blew her nose, and then waved them goodbye.
On the car ride home, Christine worked up the courage to ask the question on her mind. “Mom? Why was Sheila weeping?” She thought she knew the answer, of course: Anna’s cancer. In the past, Anna had been the neighborhood do-gooder, always going door to door for various causes: the local animal shelter, suffering children in Africa, or the families who’d lost their homes to fire. Now Anna could barely feed or dress herself. Christine thought it so unfair when bad things like this happened to good people.
“Well, it’s complex, but I guess you’re old enough to understand.”
“Understand what?”
“Understand that Anna is sick, yes, but Anna actually gets a lot of help. The government helps pay for a lot of her medicine. She gets meals delivered to her by a nonprofit. She even gets massages from local volunteers.”
“Wow!”
“Her life’s still very hard, of course, and no one would trade places with her, but when you have cancer, everyone can see that you need help, “continued Donna.” They don’t always see that the people around you are suffering.”
“People like Sheila?”
“Yes, did you know that Sheila took a break from her job to stay home with Anna?”
“No!” Christine was surprised. She had never thought about who took Anna to her appointments, or fed her when she was too weak to lift a spoon. Of course it was her family.
“Yes. So that means that many of the things they used to do with that extra money are all out the window now. They’re even worried now about keeping the house.”
“Their house? So Anna might have to move, while she’s sick?”
“If she doesn’t get better soon, and the bills keep piling up...” Donna pulled into the driveway, and just in time. Her cheeks were shining with tears.

【题目】 It’s reported that half of around 7,000 languages on the earth are in danger of disappearing by 2100.There are many reasons for such disappearance. Sometimes younger generations stop learning a language because parents want children to fit in modern society. 【1】 For instance, native American children of the late-19th century were required to attend boarding schools where educators forbade them from speaking their native languages.
Endangered languages are ranked according to their risk level by the United Nations. A "critically endangered" language is one that even grandparents don't speak often. New York's Onondaga language is an example with only 50 speakers left. An "extinct" language has no speakers, which means it is gone forever. 【2】 The last person who spoke it died in 2008. So this language doesn’t exist any longer.
Various animals and plants benefit our environment. 【3】 Saving these languages benefits our understanding of other cultures. Languages can show how a society looks at the world and what it values. The Endangered Language Alliance, a non-profit group, wants to save languages from disappearing. 【4】 However, its efforts are limited. If an endangered language is going to make a real comeback, it'll probably get its start in schools. Now students in Hawaii can keep learning Hawaiian from elementary schools to college and beyond.
【5】 At least one did. In 1881, a Jewish linguist named Eliezer Ben-Yehuda brought the 3,000-year-old language Hebrew back to life. Today it is one of the official languages of the country of Israel, with more than 4 million speakers.
A. Alaska's Eyak language is one example.
B. Why should we save endangered languages?
C. With just five speakers left, it is absolutely endangered.
D. Can a language with zero native speakers come back to life?
E. Similarly, different languages contribute to cultural diversity.
F. Sometimes societies force minorities to give up their language.
G. The organization finds native speakers and records their stories.

【题目】Every object tells a story. Even the most ordinary objects can present to us powerful images. Sometimes it is the ordinary nature of these objects that actually makes them so extraordinary. Such is the case with an old leather shoe in a museum in Alaska. At first glance it does not look like much. It is a woman’s shoe of a style popular in the 1890s. But what is unique (独特的) about this shoe is where it was found. It was discovered on the Checkout Pass, the famous trail used by the people seeking gold in Alaska. Who it belonged to or why it was left there is not known. Was it perhaps dropped by accident as the woman climbed up the 1500 stairs carved outface? Or did she throw away goods that she didn’t need in order to travel lighter?
Over 100, 000 people with “gold fever” made this trip hoping to become millionaires. Few of them understood that on their way they would have to cross a harsh wildness. Unprepared for such a dangerous journey, many died of starvation and exposure to the cold weather.
The Canadian government finally started requiring the gold seekers to bring one ton of supplies with them. This was thought to be enough for a person to survive for one year. They would carry their supplies in backpacks (背包) each weighing up to fifty pounds; it usually took at least 40 trips to get everything to the top and over the pass. Whoever dropped the shoe must have been a brave and determined woman. Perhaps she was successful and made it to Alaska. Perhaps she had to turn back in defeat. No one will ever know for sure, but what we do know is that she took part in one of the greatest adventures in the 19th century.
【1】Which of the following is right?
A. it was an important clue to life in the past B. it was found on a famous trail
C. it at one time belonged to a VIP D. it was a fashionable shoe at that time
【2】According to this passage, many people who went to Alaska ________.
A. eventually became millionaires B. brought with them many shoes
C. had conflicts with the Eskimos D. were not properly equipped
【3】The Canadian government made gold seekers bring one year’s supplies with them so that ________.
A. they would not die of hunger and cold
B. the army would have enough food for fighting a war
C. they would change these goods with the Eskimos
D. the supplies would make Alaska rich
【4】No matter what happened to the woman who owned the shoe, ________.
A. she must have lived a happy life
B. she certainly dropped the shoe on purpose
C. her adventurous spirit is definitely admired
D. her other shoes were equally fashionable

【题目】 When you live in total messiness—cookies in your pants draws, and some old New Yorkers or apple seeds in your bed—it's hard to know where to look for when you lose your keys. The other day, after two weeks of searching, I found my keys in the refrigerator. I can't say I was surprised. But I was surprised when I was diagnosed with ADHD(多动症),when I was a junior at Yale.
According to a new study, 11% of school-age children have received an ADHD diagnosis, a 16% increase since 2007. And rising diagnoses mean rising treatments—drugs like Adderall are more accessible than ever. However, the consequences of misuse and abuse of these drugs are dangerous.
Yet also harmful are the consequences of ADHD undiagnosed, an all-too-common story for women like me,who have symptoms, like disorganization and forgetfulness, which look different from those typically expressed in males.
Dr.Ellen, author of Understanding Girls with ADHD, has found around 4 million females with ADHD are not diagnosed. "The main reason is that the diagnostic criteria were developed based on those hyperactive(过度活跃)young boys taken to clinics, making it difficult for girls to be diagnosed unless they behave like hyperactive boys." Ellen says.
Besides, the idea that young women actually have ADHD often causes skepticism. As a top student,I didn't believe my diagnosis at first. My friends were also confused,and rather certain my doctor was misguided.
"Often, if girls are smart or in supportive homes, symptoms are masked," Dr.Ellen says."Girls will hide their inability to meet social expectations. They see their trouble organizing,and concentrating as character flaws(缺陷)."
These years, I am both embarrassed and exhausted by my struggles to keep track of objects, but drug has helped it and made it more bearable.
【1】The writer presents the first paragraph to .
A.air her view with an exampleB.bring up the topic of the passage
C.show young people's messinessD.prove Yale also has ADHD students
【2】Many female with ADHD are not diagnosed mainly because .
A.the diagnostic criteria are made according to male ADHD
B.they are smart enough to mask their ADHD symptoms
C.they don't view their trouble as symptoms of ADHD
D.women ADHD are more hyperactive than young boys
【3】What does the word "skepticism" in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.panic.B.stubbornness.
C.debate.D.doubt.
【4】What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.Why female ADHD patients develop the disease.
B.Why many female ADHD patients are undiagnosed.
C.How young ADHD patients are cured of the disease.
D.How much help ADHD patients can get from medication.
