(5)句意:两组事实上得到了相同的结果。in是介词,介词后的动词使用ing形式,故答案是remembering。
(6)句意:这样会给学生跟多的去思考他们不明白的问题。思考问题作定语修饰time,因此使用动词不定式,故答案是to think。

One day, Susie was unhappy when she came home from school. \"What's the matter, my dear?\" asked her mother, drawing her to her side and smiling.
\"All our class must hand in compositions tomorrow. We must write 12 lines at least. But I can never write one. I'll have to go to school without a composition, for I won't copy one from a book, or ask you or papa to write one for me.\"
\"That's right,\" said her mother. \"You'll be happier with a poor composition, if it's your own, than with a fine one written by somebody else. But cheer up. Run into the garden and play. I'll call you in half an hour. Don't think about your composition now. Just have a good time.\" It seemed just a few minutes to Susie before she heard her mother calling her. She went into the house immediately — her hands full of sweet flowers, and her face red with exercise.
Then her mother asked her to sit by the window with a nice piece of paper and a pencil, and write something about what she could see. \"Never mind your composition; do this to please me, and we'll talk about that later.\"
Although Susie thought her mother's request was strange, she knew she always had a good reason for everything she did. So she did as her mother requested.
As she looked out, she first saw the western sky and some bright, sunset clouds. \"Oh, mother, what a sunset!\" \"Don't talk. Just write.\"
The pencil began moving rapidly across the paper. She wrote about the sunset clouds, the look of the distant hills, the streets, the river, the garden with its flowers, and the birds flying past the window. She forgot all about the terrible composition!
Just as she had reached the bottom of the page, her mother came in and said with a smile, \"Well, Susie, how does that composition come on?\"
\"Composition! You told me not to think about it, and I've never thought of it once. I've had such a nice time writing about what I could see from the window.\"
Mrs. Smith took the paper and read what Susie had written. She said, \"There, Susie, that's a very nice composition, really.\"
\"A composition! Is that a composition?\" Susie asked in surprise.
\"Yes, my dear, and a very good one, too, if we find a title for it,\" replied her mother. Then she added, \"I'm sure it will please your teacher, as it does me. You see, it's easy enough to write a composition if you have anything interesting to write about.\" (1)Susie was unhappy when she came home because _____.

Winter is cold in some places. Many plants do not grow during winter. Some plants die. Snow and ice may cover the ground. It can be hard for animals to find food during winter. Animals get through this time in many ways. Birds and butterflies can fly. Many of them fly to a place with nice weather in winter and return home in spring. We call it migration.
Another good way to be away from the cold is to sleep through it. Many animals hide themselves during the winter such as snakes, frogs and bears. They sleep and do not eat for the whole winter. We call it hibernation.
Some animals store food in their homes. They save some food in summer and fall and live on them. This is what squirrels (松鼠) do.
Other animals do not leave. They do not hide. Sometimes nature helps them out. Some animals grow thicker coats in the winter. Other animals change color. The arctic fox (北极狐) is brown in summer, but his coat turns white in winter.
Winter may be pretty. It is nice to see snow on the trees. But it is dangerous, too. People are also at risk. How do you beat the winter? Do you wear a thick coat? Do you stay inside? Or do you live somewhere warm?

15.阅读理解
A new camera made by a company named Netatmo has facial recognition software (人脸识别系统) that can tell parents at work that their children have returned from school, or that a package (包裹) has been taken to their home. It can also tell them if a stranger has entered their home.
Janina Mattausch is a product marketing manager for Netatmo.
\"The common security (安全) cameras at present are not that smart. So, they can tell you if something is moving but they don't necessarily know if it's a human being or, ah, if it's your kid- they don't know the difference, so they will warn (警告) you all the time.\"
When family members enter a home, the new camera \"recognizes\" (识别) them and sends information to the owner's smartphone. The owner can choose to see the video then or later. But if an unknown person enters a home, the camera will send the owner a warning that will cause an alarm to sound on the owner's smartphone.
That is what happened recently to a smart home camera owner named Damien. He lives in Paris.
\"On a Friday I was at work, attending a big monthly meeting when my phone warned. At first I
told myself 'Oh, it must be a mistake, maybe I have to set the system again.' —but the notice on my phone was telling me that there was a movement in my flat and also a face that the software did not recognize.\"
He watched the video and was very surprised by what he saw.
\"I saw a person I did not know with his shoes on. I was watching it live on video. So I felt totally unbelievable, frozen. I asked a workmate to take me back home as fast as possible and I called the police on the way.\"

16.阅读短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Do you know where J.K. Rowling wrote the Harry Potter books? She wrote the first book in a coffee shop. Was it because she felt more creative when working there? The answer might be yes. Scientists found that moderate (适度的) noise can make people more creative, The New York Times reported.
Scientists did tests on students. They divided them into four groups. They then asked the students to do certain tasks involving creative thinking. But each group did the task with different volumes (音量) of background noise. They found that students did best when working under moderate noise—70 decibels (分贝). This is about the same volume of background noise in a cafe. Students did worse in low noise (50 dB). This is the volume of a quiet room. They did the poorest when in a high-noise (85 dB) environment. This is the noise level in a factory. Moderate noise can distract (分心) people just enough so that they think more creatively. \"It helps you think outside the box,\" Raci Mehta, a lead researcher in the study, said to the Business Standard. On the one hand, working in a very quiet place can strengthen our focus. But it also stops
us from thinking abstractly (抽象).
\"This is why if you are too focused on a problem and you can't solve it,\" said Mehta, \"you leave it for some time and then come back to it and you'll get the solution.\"
However, the scientists said that when you need to do detailed things, like proofreading (校对) a paper, a quiet place is better than a noisy one. (1)The first paragraph tells us that ________. A. J.K. Rowling likes drinking coffee
B. working in a coffee shop might help people become creative C. the best novels are born in coffee shops D. moderate noise makes people creative
(2)________ helps students do best in creative tasks.
A. 85 dB B. 70 dB C. 50 dB D. 0 dB (3)Working in a very quiet place can ________.
A. help people think outside the box B. make people think abstractly C. help people find the solution easily D. help people focus on their work (4)The main idea of the passage is ________. A. how to work under a moderate noise level
B. why J. K. Rowling likes to write stories in a coffee shop C. why moderate noise is good for creative thinking D. how scientists tested students' learning abilities 【答案】 (1)B (2)B (3)D (4)C
【解析】【分析】大意:文章主要通过一些例子和研究说明中等噪音可以帮助人们更有创造性地思考。
(1)段落大意题。根据第一段 Was it because she felt more creative when working there? The answer might be yes. 是因为在那里工作更有创造力吗?答案可能是的。可知第一段主要讲的是在咖啡厅工作可能能使人变得更有创造力。故选B。
(2)细节理解题。根据第三段 They found that students did best when working under moderate noise—70 decibels (分贝). 可知,在70分贝的环境中,学生可以做到最好。故选B。
(3)细节理解题。根据第四段 working in a very quiet place can strengthen our focus.可知,在一个非常安静的地方工作可以增强我们的专注力。故选D。
(4)主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要通过一些例子和研究说明为什么中等噪音可以帮助人们更有创造性地思考。故选C。
【点评】考查阅读理解。本文涉及细节题、段落大意题和主旨题三种常考题型,细节题要注意从文中寻找答案;段落大意题通读全段,把握文段大意;主旨题需要通读全文,了解大意之后找出中心思想。
