第一部分　阅读(共两节，满分50分)
第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Dance is one of the most natural forms of human communication.In many cultures，dance has both historic and cultural significance，which is communicated through learned gestures and expressions.Here's a bit more detail about three of the world's most beautiful dances.
Kathakali (卡塔卡利舞)
Kathakali is the most well­known dance drama from the south Indian state of Kerala.It is a storytelling dance，during which performers use a variety of gestures，and eye and facial expressions to communicate meaning.Costumes，hair styles，face paint and jewelry also hold specific meaning in the performance of kathakali.There are nine facial expressions used to express feelings ranging from sadness and anger to curiosity and disgust.Through their expressions，it should be completely clear to the viewer what the performer is intending to convey.
Tango
The dance has its roots in an African slave dance called candombe，which is also a type of music.One component of a candombe performance is a partnered dance，which has over time developed into the modern tango.If you can keep your eyes on one part of the tango，just focus on the dancers' legs and feet.The tango is typically performed low to the ground，with both performers' dance steps often taking place at the same time.It's complex and communicative.
Flamenco
One of the most interesting facts about the flamenco is that it began as a song.Over time，flamenco developed to include its now­famous passionate (热情的)accompanying dance.One of the key components of the flamenco is palmas.It may look like simple，rhythmic(有节奏的)clapping，but palmas are performed at different speeds and strengths，and it is important that the flamenco dancer understand how to make use of his or her hands as part of the performance.
[语篇解读]　本文是一篇应用文。作者在文中介绍了世界上三种最优美的舞蹈：卡塔卡利舞、探戈舞和弗拉门科舞。
1. What is so special about kathakali?
A．It came from Africa.
B．It focuses on romance.
C．It requires specific costumes.
D．It aims to tell a story by dancing.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段对Kathakali的介绍可知，卡塔卡利舞是一种南印度舞蹈，这种舞蹈讲述某一个故事并且用丰富的面部表情和手部动作，结合华丽的服饰和妆容来表达各种各样的情感，故选D。
答案：D
2．What deserves your attention in a tango?
A．The dancers' eye contact.
B．The dancers' legs and feet.
C．The dancers' arms and hands.
D．The dancers' facial expressions.
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段对Tango的介绍“If you can keep your eyes on one part of the tango，just focus on the dancers' legs and feet.”可知，在探戈舞中，舞蹈者的腿脚动作很精彩。
答案：B
3．In which dance does dancers' clapping play an important role?
A．Kathakali.　　　　　　　B．Flamenco.
C．Tango. D．Candombe.
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段的“One of the key components of the flamenco is palmas.It may look like simple，rhythmic clapping，but palmas are performed at different speeds and strengths”可知，弗拉门科舞的一个关键要素就是有节奏的拍手。
答案：B
B
In 1949，a Swedish engineer named Curt Lindquist created a material which was made of fiber(纤维)and cotton and could absorb water quickly.He turned this new material into dishcloths which have been available in Europe ever since，and now they are gaining ground in Canada.
I love microfiber cleaning cloths，but I stopped buying them when I started cutting down on plastic and things containing chemicals.I had heard that Swedish dishcloths would replace traditional towels，but I didn't see how they could be much better than my regular cotton dish towels.At that time，the company Swedish Wholesale sent me a sample pack of 10 to have a try and I am really kind of gobsmacked—they perform really well and are of great use.The ones are hard at first，but get soft once they are wet.They are made in Europe，which means they aren't exactly a local product.
The best part of dishcloths may be that they are completely biodegradable.The ones I got are made of biodegradable plant­based fiber and cotton.After innocent spills and wiping up water，I just wash mine out in the sink and squeeze them well，and then let them dry on the dish rack(架子)．But for more intensive washing，they can go into the washing machine or dishwasher.They are much less likely to give shelter to bacteria compared to traditional dishcloths because of their unique composition.
I have been using mine for about a month，and I'm curious to see how long the pack will last，but so far they have been satisfactory.I worried that they would just be something I would have to throw out at the end of their lives，but that they can be composted(制成堆肥)，which is a key factor，makes a big difference.I will report back after more time has passed，but for now I can't imagine going back to everything else.
[语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。跟作者之前使用过的清洁布相比，瑞典寄来的清洁布更环保，且效果更佳。作者在文章中讲述了自己试用的经历和感受。
4．Why did the author stop buying microfiber cleaning cloths?
A．They were made of chemicals.
B．Something was wrong with them.
C．New dishcloths would be given to her.
D．She wanted to cut back on her daily expense.

答案：A
5．What does the underlined word “gobsmacked” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A．Disappointed. B．Nervous.
C．Embarrassed. D．Surprised.
解析：词义猜测题。根据下文的“they perform really well and are of great use”可知，当看到瑞典寄来的清洁布的效果时，作者感到非常惊讶。
答案：D
6．What is the author's attitude to the new dishcloths at last?
A．Uninterested. B．Doubtful.
C．Positive. D．Negative.

答案：C
7．What is the best title for the text?

A drowning boy was rescued by a group of beach­goers who formed a human chain to drag him from the powerful surf yesterday.
Joshua McQuoid，12，from Napier，New Zealand，was paddling when he was knocked off his feet and pulled into the sea by the strong undertow(潜流)．His friend Hikiroa Ratapu raised the alarm but the current was so strong that rescuers，led by a German tourist and two policemen, were also repeatedly knocked down.
Another seven passers­by joined the rescue.They held hands to form a human chain so they were finally steady enough to hold onto the schoolboy and pass him onto the beach at Napier's Marine Parade.Joshua was unconscious when he was finally rescued from the water and was given first aid on the sand.
He was then taken to Hawke's Bay Hospital and discharged later that day.Napier Constable Paul Bailey told the local news website that the boy would have drowned if he had not been able to pass the child along the human chain.
He said at one stage Joshua became lost in the surf and had become a “dead weight”．But the waves luckily knocked the schoolboy against Mr.Bailey's legs so he was able to grab him.He told the website，“Then we saw the human chain they'd formed and I was able to pass him over.”
His father thanked every person who helped save his son's life during an interview with Radio New Zealand.The video of the touching rescue effort filmed by a young bystander has already been viewed hundreds of times after being posted online.Joshua's mother Kath Kuru also showed her heartfelt thanks to all those who helped rescue him.
[语篇解读]　Joshua在海边玩耍时不慎被海浪卷入大海，附近的人手拉手连成串把他救了出来。Joshua的父母对救援人员表达了感激之情。

答案：B
9．According to Paul Bailey，________．
A．he found Joshua by accident
B．he made a chain to save Joshua
C．Joshua came back to life in hospital

答案：A
10．What can we learn from the last paragraph?

B．Many people joined in the rescue.
C．Joshua's father was interviewed again.

答案：A

The University of Manchester made waves recently when its students' union announced it would be encouraging students to replace clapping with jazz hands at events.“Jazz hands” is the British Sign Language expression of clapping，and the university union hopes that by doing away with clapping and cheering，events will be more accessible to people suffering from anxiety and those with hearing problems.
The decision has been made in order to be more inclusive.According to student newspaper The Mancunion，the motion to replace clapping and cheering with jazz hands received little opposition from the university senate(理事会)when it was raised on September 27，2018. However，the National Union of Students(NUS)has actually been encouraging students to applaud with jazz hands rather than clapping since 2015.What's more，in 2017 the NUS suggested there should be “consequences” for students who clap and cheer at events，following requests for people to stop.
However，the move was also denounced by some who pointed out that blind people cannot hear jazz hands.Carol Povey of the National Autistic Society said she understood the university's position as“many autistic(自闭症的)people experience sensory overload.” But her organization did not advocate a complete ban on clapping.“Hand waving might cause sensory overload for people with visual sensitivity，”she said.
While clapping is one of the main ways applause is expressed across the world and jazz hands are used in British Sign Language，they're not the only forms of ovation(喝彩)．In Germany，for example，and in schools in particular，applause is often expressed by knocking on tables or desks with your knuckles(指关节). Similarly，in newsrooms there's a tradition of cheering someone out of the office—employees bang(猛敲)their hands on their desks as a colleague leaves the room on their last day at the company.According to The New York Times, in recent years，clicking your fingers has been adopted in place of clapping in some workplaces.
[语篇解读]　本文是一篇议论文。曼彻斯特大学规定在学校大型活动中用手语“jazz hands”取代拍手，以照顾听障人士或对声音敏感的人士的需求。
12．The announcement in Paragraph 1 was made to show respect for ________．
A．blind people B．jazz singers

13．What did the NUS suggest?
A．Ending the “jazz hands” movement.
B．Reducing the number of school events.
C．Punishing students clapping at events.

解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“in 2017 the NUS suggested there should be‘consequences’ for students who clap and cheer at events，following requests for people to stop”可知，the NUS建议惩治那些在学校活动中拍手和大声喝彩的学生。
答案：C
14．What does the underlined word “denounced” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A．Criticized. B．Inspired.
C．Examined. D．Ignored.
解析：词义猜测题。画线词所在句是本段的主题句。根据下文Carol Povey的言论可知，她反对完全禁止拍手。故可推知，denounced在此处意为“批评，诟病”。
答案：A
15．What does the last paragraph mainly focus on?
A．The origins of applause.
B．The customs in Germany.
C．Other alternatives to clapping.
D．Body language in workplaces.
