I. 阅读理解
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

A
When an earthquake hit a small town, many houses fell down. After the earthquake,
all the newspapers reported many-stories about some of the families who were in trouble.
One Sunday, when I was reading a newspaper, a special picture touched me. It gave
the clothing sizes of each family member. I thought that this would be a good chance
to teach my children to help those who were less lucky than themselves. I said to my
seven-year-old twins, Brad and Brett, and three-year-old daughter, Meghan, ＂We have
so m uch, b ut t hese p oor p eople n ow h ave n othing. W e’ll s hare w hat w e h ave w ith t hem.＂
I filled a box with foods and clothes. While I was doing this, I encouraged the
children to choose their toys and donate some of their less favorite things. Meghan watched quietly as the boys took out their old toys and games and put them together.
Then s he w alked a way. A f ew m inutes l ater s he c ame b ack w ith L ucy, h er m uch-loved d oll.
She put the doll on top of the other toys. ＂Oh, dear,＂I said, ＂you don’t have
to g ive L ucy. Y ou l ove h er s o m uch. ＂Meghan s aid, ＂Lucy m akes m e h appy, M ommy. M aybe she’ll make another little girl happy, too.＂
I looked at Meghan for a long moment. She taught me a lesson. It’s easy to give something that we don’t want any more, but hard to give what we cherish, isn’t it?

【语篇解读】文章介绍作者看了报纸报道地震之后许多家庭陷入困境，她想借此机会让孩子们学会关爱他人，结果女儿给自己上了一课。

B
Everybody hates rats. But in the earthquake capitals of the world—Japan, Los Angeles, Turkey—rats will soon be man’s new best friends.
What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are
big and they can’t get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a
smaller animal to save lives: the rat.
How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat’s brain gives a signal (信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back,
and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat’s brain activity jumps,
the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.
Although t here a re a lready r obots w hich c an d o t his j ob, r ats a re b etter. C hristian Linter at Cornell University —New York says, ＂Robots’noses don’t work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.＂Rats can also see in the dark. They are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don’t need electricity!
The ＂rat project＂is not finished, but Julie Ryan of International Rescue Corps
in Scotland says, ＂It would be wonderful. A rat could get into spaces we couldn’t get to and a rat would get out if it wasn’t safe.＂Perhaps for the first
time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building(but only after an earthquake, of course).
5. I n t he w orld e arthquake c apitals, r ats w ill b ecome m an’s b est f riends b ecause t hey can __________.
A. take the place of man’s rescue jobs
B. find the position of people alive who are trapped in buildings
C. serve as food for people alive who are trapped in buildings
D. get into small spaces
6. From the third paragraph we know the rescuers can judge a person is alive by __________.
A. the noise made by the rat
B. the rat’s unusual behavior
C. the signal sent by the radio on the rat’s back
D. the smell given off by the person
7. In doing rescue jobs, __________.
A. rats smell better than dogs
B. dogs don’t need to be trained to smell people
C. robots’ sense of smell can be affected by other smells around
D. rats can see in the dark and smaller than robots
8. Rats have all the following advantages(优点) EXCEPT that __________.
A. they are more wonderful than other animals
B. they are less expensive to train than dogs
C. they don’t need electricity
D. they are small and can get into small places
9. According to the passage, the ＂rat project＂means to __________.
A. use the dog to save lives after an earthquake
B. use the rat to save lives after an earthquake
C. use the rat to feel the coming earthquake
D. use the robot to save lives after an earthquake
【答案】
【语篇解读】地震过后的搜救工作往往会遇到很多问题，幸存者在哪儿？怎样判断残垣断壁下是否还有生命的存在？我们知道有生命探测仪，有搜救犬，你听说过搜救鼠吗？令人厌恶的老鼠在探测生命迹象的时候却具有更多的优势，本文意在介绍搜救鼠独特的优势。

5.B 【解析】推理判断题。

根据第二段最后两句But d ogs a re b ig a nd t hey c an’t g et i nto
small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save
lives: the rat.可知，地震救援中，让老鼠钻入狭小的空间中去探测幸存者的位置。

6. C 【解析】推理判断题。

根据第三段中This is sent to a small radio on its back,
and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat’s brain activity
jumps, t he r escuers k now t hat s omeone i s a live. T he r at h as s melled t hat p erson.可
知。

9. B 【解析】细节理解题。

根据第二段最后一句和第五段内容便知B项为正确选项。

Ⅱ.语法填空
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

People 1 (live) in different countries made different kinds of words. Today
there are about fifteen hundred __2__(language) in the world. Each contains many thousands of words. A very large dictionary, 3 example, contains four to five
hundred thousand words. 4 we do not need all these. To read short stories you need
to know only about two thousand words. Before you leave school, you will learn only
one thousand or more.
The words you know are 5 (call) your vocabulary. You should try to make your vocabulary 6 (big). Read as many books as we can. There are a lot 7 books 8 (write) in easy English. You will enjoy them. When you meet 9 new word, look it
up in your dictionary. Your dictionary is the 10 (much) useful book.
【答案】
【语篇解读】本文属于说明文，介绍了世界各地的语言以及与语言学习的有关方法。

1. living 考查现在分词作定语。

本句中动词live与people构成主动关系，所以使用现在
分词短语living in different countries作定语修饰people，相当于定语从句who live
in different countries.
2. languages 考查名词单复数。

名词＂language语言＂是可数名词，前面有数词fifteen hundred修饰，说明该名词应该使用复数形式languages。

3. for 考查固定搭配。

短语for example例如，一本大字典包含40至50万个词条。

本句中
for example表示列举。

4. But 考查连词。

大字典中有40到50万词条，但是我们根本用不到这么多的词条，阅读一
本故事书通常只要2千个词汇就可以了。

上下文之间是转折关系，所以使用but表示转折。

5. called 考查语态。

本句中主语the words与动词call之间构成被动关系，所以使用过去
分词called表示被动。

句意：你所知道的词被称为你的词汇量。

III. 短文改错
假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处，每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。

增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧)，并在其下面写出该加的词。

删除：把多余的词用斜线(＼)划掉。

修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。

注意：
1. 每处错误及其修改均限一词；
2. 只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。

【答案】
take
The other day, I part in the National English Debating Competition. I
took
what have a lot to share with you. At first, I feel really delighted I’ve
that或去掉what

won the first prize in the competition, which makes me the true meaning
understand

to
for
Additionally, I owe many thanks my teacher and the judges, without whose help,
to
I couldn’t have done such an excellent job.
第九处：去掉the in public是固定短语，意为＂在公共场合＂。

故去掉the。

第十处：for→to owe one’s thanks to是固定短语，意为＂向某人表示感谢＂。

故for改成to。
