　　參考原文：

　　A Pew Research Center survey of more than 1000 Americans conducted in April 2016 finds that Americans continue to express largely positive views about the current state of their local public libraries. For instance, around three quarters say that public libraries provide them with the resources they need and 66% say the closing of their local public library would have a major impact on their community. Although notably just 33% say this would have a major impact on them personally or on their family. A majority of Americans feel libraries are doing a good job of providing a safe place for people to hang out or spend time as well as opening up educational opportunities for people of all ages and roughly half think their libraries contribute a lot to their communities in terms of helping spark creativity among young people, and providing a trusted place for people to learn about new technologies. As in past Pew Research Center surveys of library use the April 2016 survey also measured Americans usage of and engagement with libraries. Overall, 53% of Americans ages 16 and older have had some interaction with the puppet library in the past year either through an in person visit or using a library website some 48% of adults specifically visited a library in the past 12 months. A modest increase from the 44% who said that in late 2015.

　　Question 16. What do most Americans say about local public libraries?

　　Question 17. How can local public libraries benefit young people?

　　Question 18. What does the 2016 survey show about adult library users?

　　本篇短文提到了較多的數(shù)字，這對于很多對數(shù)字不敏感的同學來說，有所難度，且因為這篇短文信息量比較大，所以部分內(nèi)容甚至要求學生能記筆記，因此這篇短文難度較大。

　　Passage Two

　　參考答案：

　　19. It is an unusual cross breed.

　　20. They are as loyal as dogs.

　　21. They shower with them.

　　主旨內(nèi)容：

　　參考原文：

　　A Savannah cat is a crossbreed between a domestic cat and a medium-sized wild African cat called the Serval. The unusual cross became popular among breeders at the end of the 1990s. And in 2001, the International Cat Association accepted it as a new registered breed. The savannahs are tall and slim and can weigh up to nine point one kilograms, making them one of the largest breeds of cats that people can own. They have a spotted code similar to that of many types of wild cats and their ears are very large. They are also commonly compared to dogs in their loyalty and can be trained to walk on a lead and to fetch, and often noted characteristic of the Savannah is its jumping ability. They are known to jump on top of doors and high cabinets. Some can leap about2.5 meters high from a standing position. Cats are typically known for being very inquisitive and so are the Savannahs. They often learn how to open doors and cupboards. Many Savannah cats do not fear water and will play with or even dive into water. Some owners even shower with their Savannah Cats, presenting a water bowl to Savannah may also prove a challenge, as some will promptly begin to bat all the water out of the bowl until it is empty using their front paws.

　　Question 19. What do we learn about the savannah cat?

　　Question 20. What is characteristic of Savannah cats?

　　Question 21. What do some people do with their Savannah cats?

　　本篇短文是一篇介紹型文章，也是大多數(shù)考生練習得較多和熟悉的考題形式。根據(jù)試聽一致，找出關(guān)鍵名詞，抓住出題點即可。難度不大，只需在提前讀完選項之后能及時預判出題位置即可。

　　Passage Three

　　參考答案：

　　22. Excite but somewhat sad.

　　23. It depends on their parents to success.

　　24. Set a good example for them to follow.

　　25. Their home life.

　　主旨內(nèi)容：

　　有關(guān)孩子的教育。孩子們第一次上學時，家長可能會興奮，也會悲傷，有一種復雜的感情，但那并不是孩子們學習的開始。早在孩子出生時，家長對孩子的教育和孩子對家長的模仿就已經(jīng)開始了。

　　參考原文：

　　When children start school for the very first time parents often feel a sense of excitement coupled with a touch of sadness at the end of an era. This is the start of a new adventure for children playing and interacting with new friends sharing, taking turns and settling into a new routine. But of course, this is not the start of your child’s education which in fact began at birth. Back then, you would have been your child’s most influential teachers. During this time at home, your child would have learnt more than at any other period in their life. During your child’s first year in school much time will be spent in learning to read and they need to know that this is fun and worthwhile. Your child will naturally copy you so it is important that you are seen reading and enjoying books newspapers and magazines rather than just absorbed in screens. Ultimately an excellent education should be a close partnership between parents and teachers. A child’s year splits fairly neatly into thirds: a third at school, a third asleep and a third awake at home or on holiday. Irrespective of the quality of a school a child’s home life is of key importance. It is the determining factor of their academic success. Your child may have started on a new journey but your work is far from finished.

　　Question 22. How do parents feel when their children start going to school?

　　Question 23. What does the passage say about children’s education?

　　Question 24. What should parents do for the success of their children’s education?

　　Question 25. What does the passage say is the key factor of children’s academic success?

　　解析：

　　本篇短文前兩題相對比較常規(guī)，第一題出現(xiàn)在文章開頭第一句話部分，考察了考生對情感類詞匯的了解程度;第二題出現(xiàn)在轉(zhuǎn)折詞but之后，也是一個重點提示的地方，需要考生迅速反應把握清出題點。最后兩題需要根據(jù)選項內(nèi)容來仔細聽材料才可選出。
