一、阅读理解
Reading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.
Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.
Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and boo ks you read. BookCrossing combines both.”
Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.
People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossers to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Pederson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.
Bo okCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.

参考答案
1．B
2．A
3．C
4．D
【解析】
【分析】
本文是说明文。

主要介绍了一个叫做BookCrossing 的网站，包括这个网站如何注册，网站的线上及线下运营模式和该网站的意义。

1．推理推断题。

根据第一段中"Now，the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group"可以推测，作者提及读书小组是为了介绍BookCrossing 这个网站，其他选项不符合文意。

故选B.
2．猜测词义题。

根据第二段中"hoping that the book will have an adventure，traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it"可知最后的it 指代的是前文提到的主语the book. 此处指找到这本书的新读者，故选A.
3．细节理解题。

根据文章第四段中"Members leave books on park benches and buses，in train stations and coffee shops."可知网站的成员在得到书之后会把书留在公园的长椅上或者巴士上或者火车站和咖啡店，方便其他陌生人读书，故选C.
4．主旨大意题。

文章主要介绍一个叫做BookCrossing 的网站，包括它的注册，网站的线上及线下运营模式和该网站的意义。

根据文中Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.和the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.可知这个网站使书籍充分发挥了其作用，让更多的人能够读到这些书。

D 项A Website Links People through Books.概括全文，说明了其意义。

故选D.
【点睛】
细节理解题具体方法与步骤如下：
1.略读材料，大概了解原文，掌握中心或主旨。

本文主要描述一个叫做BookCrossing 的网站，包括它如何注册，网站的线上及线下运营模式和该网站的意义。

2.按文章的体裁，作者写作的组织模式及有关的信息词。

如for example, first, second…等预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实。

3.将精力放在寻找你所需要的细节上。

快速通篇跳读，全文扫视，找到细节出处，待找到含细节句子时，放慢速度，仔细核对比较内容，直至找到答案。

如小题3考查BookCrosser 读完书后会怎么做，C项意为“将书传递给其他读者”，根据文章第四段第一句Members leave books on park benches and buses，in train stations and coffee shops.可知网站的成员在得到书之后会把书留在公园的长椅上或者巴士上或者火车站或者咖啡店，方便其他陌生人读书，故C 项正确。

A项意为“和其他读者会面来讨论书籍”，文章未提及，A项错误；B项意为“在他的书架里保存”，根据文章第五段最后一句the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home可知，这个想法是为了不让人们太自私，把自己的书都放在家里的书架上积灰。

故B项错误；D项，意为将书寄回给拥有者，文章未提及，故D项错误。

5．hungrily
6．growing
7．are seen
8．Although/Though
9．to avoid
10．to
11．until
12．They
13．The
14．what
【分析】
这篇文章介绍了稀有动物大熊猫的生活习性。

5．用副词修饰动词。

6．“竹子”和“生长”之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词作定语。

7．“大熊猫”和“看到”之间是被动关系，所以用被动语态。

8．句意：尽管它们看起来不活泼，但是事实上，它们是非常擅长爬树和游泳的。

所以填Although/Though。

9．表示目的“为了避开彼此”，所以填to avoid。

10．give birth to是固定用法，意思是生下。

11．句意：大熊猫宝宝直到三个月大时才会爬行。

所以填until。

12．句意：它们出生时是白色的。

所以填they。

13．In the wild是固定用法，意思是野生的。

14．这里含有一个主语从句，引导词在从句中作宾语，所以填what。

15．Dear David,
I’m a Chin ese middle school student named Li hua. Yesterday, while surfing the internet, I saw your notice. I’m very happy to be able to become friends with you.

本篇书面表达是读后续写。

【详解】
本篇书面表达是读后续写。

通过阅读所给文章可知，农夫在超市买完菜回家的路上看到了倒在地方的人，他本想将他扶起，但发现他死了之后很害怕就跑了，并将自己的篮子忘在了那里。

第二天警察找他问话，他不承认自己是凶手。

续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：警官非常生气，他让警察再打他一顿……，所以应该写农夫的心理活动，即他内心的恐惧以及想法等。

第二段开头是：农夫很幸运。

几天后……，本段应该写事情的转机。

目击证人说出了谁是真凶，坏人得到了应有的惩罚，农夫也洗清了冤屈，证人收到大家尊敬。

续写时要求使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语增加了写作难度，我们要熟悉所给划线词语，恰当的时候加以运用。

最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右；续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。

按要求完成写作任务。

【点睛】
本文描写详略得当，使用了高级词汇和高级句子。

如：so … that; asked sb. to do; beat sb. up; be sentenced to; take the great courage to do; be regarded as等高级词汇；强调句It was the police officer who killed the man on the snow，定语从句the policeman who beat up the farmer was fired 等高级句式。
