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 Napiers 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 Hawkes 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. Baileys legs so he was able to grab him. He told the website, “Then we saw the human chain theyd formed and I was able to pass him over.”His father thanked every person who helped save his sons 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. Joshuas 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。8How many people offered to help Joshua out of the sea?A10.

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. Whats 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 universitys 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, theyre 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 theres a tradition of cheering someone out of the officeemployees 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。12The announcement in Paragraph 1 was made to show respect for _.Ablind peopleBjazz singersCdeaf people Dschool event organizers解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“. 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.”可知，曼彻斯特大学的学生会发布用“jazz hands”取代拍手的公告是为了照顾声音敏感人群和听障人士。答案：C13What did the NUS suggest?AEnding the “jazz hands” movement.BReducing the number of school events.CPunishing students clapping at events.DEncouraging students to state their opinions.解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“in 2017 the NUS suggested there should beconsequencesfor 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：C14What does the underlined word “denounced” in Paragraph 3 mean?ACriticized. BInspired.CExamined. DIgnored.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：A15What does the last paragraph mainly focus on?AThe origins of applause.BThe customs in Germany.COther alternatives to clapping.DBody language in workplaces.解析：段落大意题。最后一段主要介绍了除拍手之外的其他在世界各地所流行的喝彩方式。答案：C第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。School bus drivers transport kids to and from school. 16 Along with their transportation duties, bus drivers commonly assume other roles in the school district.The most obvious responsibility of a school bus driver is to transport students to and from school or activities in a timely and safe manner. This includes showing up to each home or stopping at the scheduled time and informing parents of any change in pickup or dropoff times. The driver also has to drive safely in all types of weather. 17School bus drivers not only have to drive safely and watch the road, but they also normally have responsibility for the conduct of students on their buses. 18 Monitoring students behavior and stopping any horseplay are immediate duties. In some cases, students are assigned (分配) seats in the front of the bus if they have regular behavioral problems.19 This includes regular checks on brakes, tires，turning signals and mechanical (机械的) equipment. School districts often have regular daily checklists whereby drivers must confirm that they have checked on various safety items. If problems are detected with any of these components, the bus is normally taken in for repair work and the driver uses an alternative bus until his normal one is ready to go again.Each day, school bus drivers have to log (记录) a variety of activities. 20 They also log the miles they drive on their routes. Additionally, drivers make notes when fuel is filled and the amount. These daily logs help ensure accuracy in routes.AIts extremely important.BThey are usually tasked with cleanup duty.CIts really hard to control kids onbus behavior.DThey report the number of riders on their buses.EThey also take school sports teams and other groups on trips.FRegular drivers are responsible for monitoring the safety of their buses.GBuses have large mirrors over the front window that give drivers the ability to see the entire bus.语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了校车司机的职责。16解析：上句(校车司机接送孩子上下学)介绍的是校车司机的一项接送责任(transportation duty)，再根据该空后的transportation duties(复数形式)可知本空应是校车司机的另外一项transportation duty，E项(他们还有接送学校体育队和其他团体的责任)符合此处语境。答案：E17解析：上文提到不管天气如何，校车司机都必须安全驾驶。A项“这很重要”符合此处语境。答案：A18解析：根据下句(监视学生的行为和制止任何玩闹是即时责任)中的monitoring(监视)可判断G项(校车的前窗上有很大的镜子，可以让司机看到整辆校车)为本题答案。答案：G19解析：下文都是关于校车司机负责有关校车安全保养方面的内容，故答案为F项(平常开校车的司机有责任检查校车的安全)。答案：F20解析：根据第一句可知本段讲的是校车司机的另一项职责：记录各项活动的数据。D项“报告坐车人数”应是记录数据中的一项，故为答案。答案：D第二部分语言知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Mikalin still remembers the exact moment she was separated from her mother, on September 24, 1975.Then just four years old, she and her mother were walking through Penn Station in New York.Mikalin _21_ a candy store and asked whether she could go in.
