Andrew Feldman is a student at Lawrence Woodmere Academy (LWA) in Woodmere, New York.On June 25, 2018, he took home the top prize at the National High School Musical Theatre Awards(全美高中生音乐剧奖) at Broadway’s Minskoff Theatre.
Also known as the Jimmy Awards, the awards were named to remember James M.Nederlander, a theatre owner and Broadway producer who died in 2016.
Feldman won the award for Best Performance by an Actor for playing Frank Abagnale Jr.in LWA’s production of “Catch Me If You Can.” He and Reneé Rapp each received a$10,000 scholarship.Rapp from Charlotte, North Carolina, is the winner of the Best Performance by an Actress award.The other remaining seventyeight finalists received$3,000 scholarships.
The finalists received a week of training at the New York University Tisch School of the Arts (TSOA) before the awards event.Instructors from Broadway taught them basic skills of performing arts.
Feldman also won the Carnegie Mellon PreCollege Scholarship.Carnegie Mellon University, based in Pittsburgh, was founded in 1900 by Andrew Carnegie.Feldman received an additional $7,500 to attend the university’s sixweek summer play program.
He has been a Broadway lover since seeing “Beauty and the Beast” when he was young.And then he performed in his first play, a production of “Annie,” at eight.
The shock of winning has still not disappeared.“Winning the Jimmy Award is not something
6
I even imagined,” Feldman said.“I didn’t think it could actually happen! It’s now been about a week and a half and I still don’t believe it.”
In 2014, Feldman created a theatre company called Zneefrock Productions.The company is run totally by teens.It was set up to raise money for NEXT for Autism, an organization helping to support autism programs.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。Andrew Feldman获得了2018年度全美高中生音乐剧大奖。 21.What did Feldman do during the week before June 25? A.He traveled around Pittsburgh. B.He received training at TSOA. C.He performed at the Minskoff Theatre. D.He visited Carnegie Mellon University.
B 解析:推理判断题。由第四段中的The finalists received a week of training...(TSOA) before the awards event.可推断,在颁奖仪式之前,Feldman和其他决赛选手一起在帝势艺术学院接受了一周的培训。
22.What did Feldman say about winning the prize? A.He was certain of it. B.He was not expecting it. C.It took him a lot of effort. D.It was not a great achievement.
B 解析:细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的Winning the Jimmy Award is not something I even imagined可知,Feldman并没有想到自己会获得吉米奖。
23.What is the text mainly about? A.A group of Broadway lovers. B.A theatre company run by teens. C.The winner of the Jimmy Awards. D.The influence of the Jimmy Awards.
C 解析:主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文报道了2018年度全美高中生音乐剧大奖获得者Andrew Feldman。

A meeting of The Washington Post employees was held on 5 August, 2013.Into the crowded hall entered chairman Donald E.Graham, and his niece and publisher Katherine Weymouth.The air was thick.The newspaper was to get a new boss! Jeffrey P.Bezos of Amazon.com would buy the daily for $250 million in cash.
Both the uncle and the niece took turns in telling the news and answering their questions.Many
7
of the audiences wept because they were unable to accept the news.“The rise of Internet and the change from print to digital technology have created a huge wave of competition for traditional news companies,” said Donald E.Graham.
In 2013, after struggling with the falling revenue(收益) for years, The New York Times (NYT) sold its The Boston Globe newspaper for $70 million.The NYT bought the paper in 1993 for $1.1 billion.Just twenty years later, the company sold it for a cheap price.
Nowadays, things seem to be worse than ever.Newspapers are reporting negative growth across US and Europe.Francis Gurry, the 4th Director General of the World Intellectual Property Organization said that newspapers would disappear by 2040.
This may cause a lot of problems for media jobs.For example, layoffs(裁员) and salary cuts are very common now.Many of the journalists have already moved to different jobs where their writing and editing skills are of no use.A large number of former journalists work as marketing executives, or property developers.In Canada last year, Sun Media, the largest newspaper chain there, stopped its eight dailies, closing 360 jobs and slashing 500 positions.
The traditional media still send people out to collect stories.However, with the mobile phones today, everybody is a reporter.Therefore, the newspapers are forced to adapt in order to survive.That may be a revolution(革命), but at the cost of newspapers.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇新闻报道。受到互联网的冲击,很多传统报纸销量下降,甚至传统报纸也会面临消失。
24.Why did Donald E.Graham decide to sell The Washington Post? A.He really needed money. B.He had trouble in governing it.
C.The company planned to do something else. D.The company was at a disadvantage in competition.
D 解析:推理判断题。根据第二段Donald E.Graham的话可知,他卖报纸的原因是因为它在竞争中处于劣势。
25.What was Francis Gurry’s attitude towards the future of newspapers? A.Confident. C.Uninterested.
B.Negative. D.Curious.
B 解析:观点态度题。根据第四段的Francis Gurry, the 4th Director General of the World Intellectual Property Organization said that newspapers would disappear by 2040.可推断,他对报纸的前途持消极态度。
26.What does the underlined word “slashing” in the last but one paragraph mean? A.Creating.
B.Requiring.
8
C.Cutting. D.Changing.
C 解析:词义猜测题。根据本段中的This may cause a lot of problems for media jobs.For example, layoffs(裁员) and salary cuts are very common now.和...stopped its eight dailies, closing 360 jobs可推测,画线词意为“削减职位”。
C
Until March 18, New York City is hosting the New York International Children’s Film Festival (NYICFF).The festival presented films from 24 countries.50% of the filmmakers are women.
Since February 23, when the festival began, viewers have been able to choose from more than 100 films at six theaters across the city.Although the event is considered as a children’s festival, the films set no rules as to who you are or where you come from.
Among the films presented at the festival, Zoo and Zombillenium are two impressive(给人印象深刻的) ones.Zoo is a British war film that shows the difference that a kid can make.
Tom is the protagonist(主角) of this heartwarming story.Tom’s dad is the owner of the Belfast Zoo.After he leaves to fight in the war, Tom has to save the zoo’s baby elephant, Buster, from being killed in the war.
“I loved it,” said 9yearold Gabriel Bieller of New York City after seeing the film.“It really taught how kids could make a difference.”
Ella Hanson, 7, was also moved.“The sweet story of a kid like me making a difference when faced with difficulties caused by a war,” she said, “was very encouraging.”
Zombillenium is an animated(动画的) French film about working hard to achieve your
dreams.Hector Saxe is the immediately dislikeable protagonist.His management job is all about rules.But after he starts working at the amusement park(游乐园) that he hates, he puts all of his love into getting it ready for his daughter to visit.
The film had many positive reactions(反响) from the audience.“The story presented great, lifelike characters,” said Sami Ali, 12.
Oliver, 10, who did not provide a last name, said, “It was rather sad, but it underlined the importance of never letting go of the things that you care about.”
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了纽约国际儿童电影节的情况。 27.What can we learn about this year’s NYICFF? A.It lasted more than three weeks. B.It attracted viewers from 24 countries. C.It presented films mostly made by women.
D.It only presented films with kids as protagonists.
9
A 解析:细节理解题。由第一段中的Until March 18和第二段中的Since February 23可知,该电影节持续了三周多的时间。
28.What happens to Tom in the film Zoo? A.He saves the owner of a zoo. B.He is forced to fight in a war. C.He loses his father because of a war. D.He helps an elephant live through a war.
D 解析:细节理解题。由第四段中的Tom has to save the zoo’s baby elephant, Buster, from being killed in the war可知,在该电影中,主角Tom 拯救动物园的小象,使它在战争中幸存。
29.How did Gabriel Bieller find the film Zoo? A.Creative. C.Educative.
B.Relaxing. D.Saddening.
C 解析:推理判断题。由第五段中的Gabriel Bieller所说的话“It really taught how kids could make a difference.”可知,他认为该电影对小孩子有教育意义。
30.What might the viewers think of Hector Saxe at first? A.Shy.
C.Hardworking.
B.Strict. D.Warmhearted.
B 解析:推理判断题。由倒数第三段中的Hector Saxe is the immediately dislikeable...all about rules.可知,Hector Saxe一出场就不招人喜爱,他一开始的管理工作列满了条条框框的规定,因此可推断他给观众的第一印象是非常严格。

【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章简单介绍了水对于人类的重要性、水的源头及其存在形式等。 56.In 解析:考查介词。in addition意为“此外,另外”,是固定搭配。

59.is found 解析:考查动词的时态和语态。此处表示一般情况,所以用一般现在时,又因为water是find的承受者,所以此处用一般现在时的被动语态。
60.covering 解析:考查非谓语动词。此处用现在分词作定语修饰The Pacific Ocean,所以填
14
covering。

第二节 读写续写(满分25分)
阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living.One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 a.m.When I arrived to collect, I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window.
I walked to the_door and knocked.“Just a minute,” answered a weak, elderly voice. After a long time, the door opened.A small woman in her eighties stood before me.By her side was a small suitcase.
I took the suitcase to the car, and then returned to help the woman.She took my arm and we walked slowly towards the car.
She kept thanking me for my kindness.“It’s nothing,” I told her.
“I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated.”
“Oh, you’re such a good man,” she said.When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, “Could you drive through downtown?”
“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly.
“Oh, I’m in no hurry,” she said.“I’m on my way to a hospice (临终医院).I don’t have any family left.The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(计价器).For the next two hours, we drove through the city.She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.
Sometimes she’d ask me to slow_down in front of a particular building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
At dawn, she suddenly said, “I’m tired.Let’s go now.” We drove in silence to the address she had given me.
“How much do I owe you?” she asked. “Nothing,”I said.
“You have to make_a_living,” she answered.“Oh, there are other passengers,” I answered.She said thanks to me, but she looked so sad.

One possible version: Paragraph 1:
Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug.Before the woman left, I said to her,
“My mother treated everyone kindly.She is a great person, but she passed away years ago.You are like my mother.” The woman said, “Thank you.If you want to visit me, I’ll tell you my story.” Then the woman left.After a long pause, I drove the taxi to go home.
Paragraph 2:
The next day I was on my way to visit her.The old woman told me that she used to be a
millionaire.She became immersed in making money.She was the owner of a particular building we saw last night.But she neglected her family.Her only son died one year ago because of cancer.She sold everything to save him, but failed.How sad! At last, the old woman said to me, “Life is short, but please be in no hurry.Though everyone has to earn money to make_a_living,_always remember that family is the most important thing to you.” I said nothing but nodded hard.
