【详解】考查形容词。句意：她在比赛中的出色表现证明她是个当之无愧的胜利者。worth是一个只能作表语的形容词，意思为“值……的。worthy可作表语，也可作定语。作定语时意思为“有价值的”、“值得尊敬的”、“应受到赏识的” worthwhile与worthy一样，既可作表语，又可作定语。表示某事因重要、有趣或受益大而值得花时间、金钱或努力去做，一般做“值得的”。本句中缺少定语，所以C选项错误。D选项能做定语，但是意思不符合句意。故B选项正确。
【点睛】worth、worthy、worthwhile的用法区别
这三个词都是形容词，都有“值得的”的意思，但用法或搭配关系不同。
1. worth是一个只能作表语的形容词，意思为“值……的”、“相当于……的价值的”、“有……价值的”、“值得……的”。由于它类似介词，须在后面接名词、或主动形式的动名词作宾语。例如：
2. worthy可作表语，也可作定语。作定语时意思为“有价值的”、“值得尊敬的”、“应受到赏识的”；用作表语时意思为“值得……的”、“应得到……的”，其后接of sth.，也可以后接to do sth.，例如：
3. worthwhile与worthy一样，既可作表语，又可作定语。表示某事因重要、有趣或受益大而值得花时间、金钱或努力去做，一般做“值得的”、“值得做的”、“有意义的”解。用作表语时，可接动名词或动词不定式。
本句中worthy“应受到赏识的”作winner的定语，故B选项正确。

Mrs Lindsay had been taught us about kites. She told us they were invented in China in more than 2,300 years ago. When our teacher asked us to design a kite it could fly, we started our pairs work at once.
First, we collected the materials we need. Tara brought the big plastic bag to school. I persuaded my dad to let me have some masking tape (遮蔽胶带) that left over last week where we had been spraying the rusty (生锈的) patch on the car. I also found some thin poles. But either Tara nor I could find any string at home, so we will get some for our pocket money on the way home tonight.

三、 阅读理解
21. More and more schools are being designed and used in ways that are friendly to the environment. These so-called green schools use less energy, cost less to run and are good for students.
The newly renovated (翻修的) Sidwell Friends Middle School in the District has been awarded the highest rating by the U.S. Green Building Council for having a positive impact on the environment－a rare honor. Soon the school will treat and re-use its wastewater, saving hundreds of thousands of gallons of water per year.
The recycled water from sinks and toilets, which can’t be used for drinking, will be color1 ed blue, “so we know it’s recycled, just in case it gets into the water fountains (喷泉)－not that it would,” joked Emily Bernstein, 14, a Sidwell student and building tour guide. Water fountains will still use fresh city water.
Sidwell students are studying the building itself in science classes to help them learn first－hand the positive impact of green buildings. It’s affecting how they view the world around them. “If you see a [building] being torn down, you think, ‘They’re going to fill up a whole landfill (垃圾填埋场) with that,’” said Matthew Malone, 13.
In Prince George’s County, Suitland Elementary has been so successful that another green school is being planned, in Laurel, for the 2008－09 school year.
At Suitland, a garden courtyard collects and uses rainwater; the roof is angled away from the sun to keep it cool; and skylights and tall windows let in lots of natural light.
“You don’t have to switch on the light switch all the time,” said Rupert McCave, the county official guiding these projects.
Green schools tend to be sunnier and more inviting than older buildings. In fact, a study done in Washington state showed that students at green schools performed better and were absent less.

69. From the text we learn that green schools         .
       A. not only benefit the environment but also win high awards
       B. contribute both to the environment and to students development
       C. treat and recycle water from sinks, toilets and water fountains
       D. make more use of solar power and save more electricity than older schools
70. From Matthew Malone’s words, we can see that         .
       A. Sidwell students don’t like building being torn down
       B. Sidwell students prefer green buildings to be set up
       C. Sidwell students are thinking green under the positive influence
       D. Sidwell students are equipped with knowledge of architecture
71. The word “inviting” in the last paragraph can be replace by        .
       A. attractive B. interesting          C. smart               D. cool
72. The passage is mainly about         .
       A. green buildings                                   B. successful schools
       C. students going green                           D. environmentally－friendly schools

22. March 21 has been declared World Sleep Day，a time to recognize and celebrate the value of sleep．Many sleep experts hope it will be a wake-up call．
According to a 2016 poll（民意调查）by the National Sleep Foundation，nearly 4 in 5 Americans don't get as much sleep as they should during the workweek．On average，adults are thought to need at least eight hours of sleep a night，although some can manage with less and some won't do well without more．But the survey found that，on workdays，only 21% of Americans actually get a full eight hours of sleep，and another 21% get less than six．
To many of us，the thought of spending more time sleeping is，well，a big yawn．On the other hand，the thought of being smarter，thinner，healthier and more cheerful has a certain appeal．And those are just a few of the advantages that can be ours if we consistently get enough sleep， researchers say．Also on the plus side： We're likely to have better skin，better memories，better judgment，and，oh，yes，longer lives．
"When you lose even one hour of sleep for any reason，it influences your performance the next day，" says Dr．Alon Avidan，director of the UCLA Sleep Disorders Center．
A study published last year found the same to be true even of children． When kids aged 8 to 12 slept for just one hour less for four nights，they didn't function as well during the day．
But sleeping has an image problem．"We see napping or sleeping as lazy，" says Jennifer Vriend，a clinical psychologist in Ottawa，Canada，and the leading author of the study with children．"We put so much emphasis on diet，nutrition and exercise．Sleep is in the back seat．" In fact，she adds，no matter how much we work out，no matter how well we eat，we can't be in top physical shape unless we also get plenty of sleep．
28．The underlined part in Paragraph 1 means ______ ．
A．To wake up the sleepers    B．To draw people's attention
C．To serve as a morning call    D．To declare the special day
29．From Paragraph 3 we can infer that ______ .
A．The thought of being healthier is not very attractive
B．Sleeping has nothing to do with one's expectations
C．Enough sleep is the guarantee of the appealing things
D．Spending more time on sleeping is a waste of time
30．What Jennifer Vriend said in the last paragraph implies that ______ ．
A．People care little about sleeping    B．Sleeping is not important
C．Lazy people tend to sleep long    D．Sleeping is only part of our life
31．What is the purpose of the passage？
A．To talk about people's sleeping problems．
B．To provide an investigation result of sleeping．
C．To stress the function of sleeping at night．
D．To raise the awareness of enough sleeping．
参考答案：
28．    B   
29．    C   
30．    A   
31．    D   
作者通过一项调查说明如今的人们缺乏睡眠的现象十分严重，唤醒人们对于充足睡眠的意识。
28．推断题。由第一段第一句"March 21 has been declared World Sleep Day，a time to recognize and celebrate the value of sleep"可知，3月21日被宣布为世界睡眠日，是一个认识和赞美睡眠价值的日子，由此可以推之，很多睡眠专家希望可以通过这样一个宣传日来吸引更多人对于睡眠的关注，所以B项正确。A项"唤醒睡眠者"，C项"用作一个叫醒电话"，D项"声明这个特殊的一天"，均不合语境。故正确答案为B。
29．推断题。根据第三段第二、三句"On the other hand，the thought of being smarter，thinner，healthier and more cheerful has a certain appeal．And those are just a few of the advantages that can be ours if we consistently get enough sleep，researchers say"可知，变得更精明、更苗条、更健康和更愉快有十足的吸引力，而那些只是我们一直获得足够睡眠的众多优点中的几个，由此可推知，C项"足够的睡眠是一些很有吸引力事情的保证"符合文章说法，所以C项正确。A项，"变得更加健康对我们来说是众多的优点之一"，这是一个一般事实，而不是从文中推断而出，所以A项错误；B 项，"睡眠和个人期望无关"，由"the thought of being smarter，thinner，healthier and more cheerful has a certain appeal"可知，睡眠与个人期望有关，所以B项错误；D项，"花更多的时间睡觉是浪费时间"，与第三段的描述相悖，所以D项错误。
故正确答案为C。
30．推断题。由最后一段第二、三、四句 Jennifer Vriend 说的话"'We see napping or sleeping as lazy，'…'We put so much emphasis on diet，nutrition and exercise．Sleep is in the back seat．'"可知，我们把打盹儿或睡觉看成懒惰，我们总是强调饮食、营养和锻炼，睡眠却抛在脑后，由此可以推知，A项"人们很少在意睡眠"符合 Jennifer Vriend 话中的意思，所以A项正确。B项，"睡眠存在一个印象问题"，是文章原话，作者通过引用 Jennifer Vriend 说的话来解释"睡眠存在一个印象问题"，而非Jennifer Vriend 的话中暗示（imply），所以B项错误；C项，"懒人往往会睡懒觉"，Jennifer Vriend 只是说人们会认为，而不是事实就是那样，C项无法推出，所以C项错误；D项，"睡眠只是我们生命的一部分"，Jennifer Vriend 说的是人们对于睡眠的印象问题和睡眠的重要性，D项无法推出，所以D项错误。所以正确答案为A。
31．主旨题。文章第一段通过 World Sleep Day 引出睡眠问题，第二段引用一项调查说明如今的人们缺乏睡眠的现象十分严重，第三段阐述足够的睡眠的好处，第四、五段说明缺乏睡眠的影响，最后一段通过引用 Jennifer Vriend 的话说明人们对于睡眠的刻板印象，再次强调足够睡眠的重要性，可见，文章的目的就是为了唤醒人们对于充足睡眠的意识，所以D项正确。A项"讨论人们的睡眠问题"；B项"提供睡眠的调查结果"；C项"强调夜晚睡眠的作用"，都只是文章中的部分内容，不能作为作者的写作意图，所以A、B、C项均错误．故正确答案为D。
