A
Recently, a junior high school sent several students back home because they broke the school uniform（校服）rules. Should students wear school uniforms? The Young World magazine held a discussion on this topic（话题）.
Kennedy: The school uniform is very important, because it always reminds me that I am supposed to go out of my way to study hard. It also helps prevent school bullying（欺凌）. If everyone wears the same clothes, it is impossible to laugh at other people’s clothing.
Manson: The uniform has to be earned（获得）through efforts. Students should start school with no uniforms. As they make progress at school, they start wearing it. I always think children need to be proud of their school. The uniform is important for that. So, make students ea rn it! If they don’t perform well, they should not be allowed to get one.
Moorhead:In my opinion, kids don’t have to wear uniforms. There should be more choices open to kids in education. They ought to develop their own independence and just be themselves. Their personalities would be expressed through their own clothes at school. And different dress could be one way of showing their understanding
of beauty. Besides, they make the school lively and colorful.
Patrick: I can see the advantages of wearing school uniforms. They play a very important role in managing schools. However, a school should not depend heavily on uniforms to improve students’ behaviors. Teaching them how to express themselves with confidence（信心）is more important.
26. What does the writer mean to do in Paragraph 1?
A. Present an opinion on a subject.
B. Introduce a topic for discussion.
C. Provide a way to solve problems.
27. What is Kennedy in the second paragraph?
A. A student.
B. A teacher.
C. A parent.
28. In Manson’s opinion, ___________ .
A. students have the right to get school uniforms for free
B. students should be encouraged to earn school uniforms
C. students performing well needn’t wear school uniforms
29. According to Patrick, what is more important?
A. Managing schools by uniforms.
B. Improving students’ behaviors.
C. Helping students express themselves confidently.
30. We can learn from the text that ___________ .
A. Kennedy can’t stand school uniforms
B. Moorhead is against school uniform rules
C.the writer holds the same o pinion as Patrick’s B It is believed that Huck Finn is based on（基于）a childhood friend of Mark Twain’s. In fact, Twain was not alone
in basing a fictional character（虚构的角色）on a real-life person.
Severus Snape / John Nettleship
Severus Snape is a skillful wizard（巫师）teaching magic in Harry Potter. The writer, J.K. Rowling, once said that the character was based on a teacher of hers. The teacher turned out to be John Nettleship,who taught Rowling chemistry. At first, Nettleship felt surprised. “I know I am a strict teacher,” he said. “But I don’t think I am as bad as Snape!” On second thoughts, however, he said that he was so ill-tempered that most of his students avoided making him mad. Also, he used to wear long hair and have an untidy lab. That sounds familiar to Harry Potter fans.
Alice / Alice Liddell
Famously, Lewis C arroll’s Alice in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is based on Alice Liddell.
Carroll was close to the Liddell family. One day, ten-year-old Alice asked Carroll to tell her a new story. Carroll began to create his famous tale of Alice and what happened after she fell through the rabbit hole. The little girl liked the story so much that she asked him to write it down. And the rest is history.
Dill / Truman Capote
In To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee based Dill on her childhood friend, Truman Capote. Capote once said, “Lee was my best friend. Have you ever read To Kill a Mockingbird? I’m a character in that story! The story takes place just in the town where we lived!”
31. Snape and Nettleship have something in common EXCEPT__________.
A. their jobs
B. their looks
C. their hobbies

A. proud
B. unsatisfied
C. surprised
35. The text is mainly about ________.
A. purposes of writing fictional stories
B. introductions to famous writers’ childhood friends
C. characters of fictional stories from real-life persons
第三节语篇补全阅读下面的短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项补全短文。

选项中有一项为多余选项。

Summer is here. One of the best ways to cool off on a hot summer day is to jump into a swimming pool. Swimming is great exercise, and a trip to a pool or beach is a good way to have fun with
friends._________36_________, so it’s important to stay safe as you do it. Here are a few things you can do to swim safely.
Swim only in areas set for swimming.
Don’t swim unless there is a lifeguard（救生员）on duty. If you’re on a beach near the ocean, this is especially important. In some places, fast currents（急流）can sweep swimmers away without warning. So if a sign says “no swimming”, please take care.
Be careful when diving（跳水）into the water headfirst.
Most pools have deep ends where diving is safe. In natural water, don’t dive unless you know that the water is d e e p e n o u g h._________37_________,c a u s i n g i n j u r y（伤害）o r d e a t h. Make sure you have a partner with you.

Kids who don’t know how to swim should wear life jackets. But by themselves they are not
enough,_________39_________ . If you have a pool at home, put a fence（围栏）around it in case children fall in. And if a child disappears, check the pool first. A.skilled kids may forget green hands B. so an adult should always be present C. But swimming can also be dangerous D. a few seconds can make a big difference E. Or you could hit your head on the bottom 第四节阅读表达阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题。

I am Canadian. I started learning French when I was 10 years old. But my whole experience with the language
was in the classroom. All of that changed, however, during my last summer of high school. As a 17-year-old girl, I flew across the country by myself for the first time! I headed for Quebec to live in the province with a
French-speaking host family, who didn’t speak any English. And I would learn French at a local school.
On the first day of school, all of us students were given a test to determine（测定）our language level. We were required to speak only French all summer.
I made every effort to communicate in a second language by making new friends, seeing movies and even ordering food from restaurants in French. Though I couldn’t understand most of i t at the very beginning, the whole experience was exciting and refreshing.
On weekends, my classmates and I took trips to different places around the province. On one trip, we went whale watching on the St. Lawrence River. Even though it was raining, we could see huge whales swimming around our boat. The most memorable part of our trip was a visit to historic Quebec City. I walked along the stone streets, took pictures of the European-style（欧式的）buildings, and learned some stories there.
Finally my efforts paid off! At the end of the summer, I was able to communicate pretty well. I couldn’t wait to go back to school and talk with my French teacher. Being fully immersed（沉浸）in a French-speaking environment was a valuable learning experience. And it could be the main reason for my improvement in French.
40. When did the writer fly alone for the first time?
41. How did the local school determine the students’ language level?
42. Did the writer enjoy the experience of communicating in French?
43. What did the writer think of the visit to historic Quebec City?
44. What could be the main reason for the writer’s improvement in French?
IV．写作技能
第一节语篇翻译阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

Do you enjoy hitting the books? It doesn’t mean you enjoy beating your books with your hand. That may be reasonable if you don’t understand something inside your books. Hitting the books just means that you are studyi ng hard. You can learn a lot when you hit the books.___45___Especially before exams, most students spend a lot of time hitting the books to get good grades.
This is just one example of expressions that can’t be understood by taking them apart（分开）word by word. Expressions like this are called idioms（习语）. They are an important part of a culture’s language. Languages and cultures are closely connected. One example of an idiom in the Chinese language is “dui niu tan qin”, or “to play the lute（拨弦乐器）to a cow.”___46___这意味着某人在说话或写作时不考虑其听众或读者。

Let’s get back to idioms that begin with the word “hit”___47___ There are many of them in English, but it’s not that easy for you to understand.
One common idiom you may hear in English is “hit the road”. It means to leave or to go. You can say, “Hey, I need to hit the road. Can we talk about this another time?” Or simply, “It’s time to hit the road.” When you are tired and you want to go to bed, you can say, “I need to hit the hay（干草）.” It means you want to go to sleep.___48___ That’s because a bed was often a big bag with hay inside in the past.
___49___ 习语使你的语言生动而有趣。

Let’s hit the road to learn some and try to use them.
第二节情景交际通读下面的对话，根据上下文补全对话内容。

A: Hey, Joy. This is Steve, calling from the Tianmenshan Mountain of Zhangjiajie!
B: Hi, Steve. You are already in Zhangjiajie?! Great to hear you! So _______50_______?
A: Oh, amazing! You know, Zhangjiajie is famous for its steep（陡峭的）mountains, which are quite different from those in our country.
B: Really? _______51_______?
A: No. Instead of walking, we took the cable car（缆车）.
B: That was also an exciting experience, I suppose. _______52_______?
A: For five days. My dad will have an important meeting next Monday. Work comes first.
B: What a pity! Given more time, you could visit more places of interest. How about the food there?
A: _______53_______! As a real foodie（吃货）, I enjoy all kinds of traditional food here. And so do my family. B: You do?
A: Yes. And tomorrow we are going to visit Huanglongdong. It is said to be one of the most beautiful karst caves（溶洞）in the world and it has interested so many travellers.
B: Fantastic! Could you please tell me more about it when you are back? A: _______54_______.I’ll see you in a few days. Talk to you soon. B: Thank you. Have a nice journey! 第三节书面表达55.假如你是李华，你们班输了上周的篮球赛。

II．知识运用
第一节语法填空从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选择最佳答案填空。

1._______ fun it is to have a field trip on the Orange Island!
A. What
B. What a
C. How
【答案】A
【详解】句意：在橘子岛上进行野外旅行是多么有趣啊！若感叹句中出现主语就抓住感叹句中的主语，如果主语前是名词，则用what，再考虑冠词；如果主语前是形容词或副词，则用how。

可知原句中的it为感叹句主语，其前fun为不可数名词，故不加冠词。

故答案为A。

2.Keep trying, ______ you might surprisingly find hidden abilities within you.
A. but
B. and
C. or
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意：继续努力，你可能会惊讶地发现你内心隐藏的能力。

A. but但是，表示转折关系；
B. and和，而且，表示顺承关系；
C. or或者，表示选择关系。

and可以和祈使句或名词词组连用表示条件，题干也可以理解为“如果你继续努力，你可能会惊讶地发现你内心隐藏的能力”。

故答案为B。

3.Yesterday our headmaster made a speech ______ environmental protection, and we learned something about recycling of waste.
A. on
B. at
C. to
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意：昨天我们校长做了一次关于环境保护的演讲，我们学到了一些关于废物回收的知识。

A. on 关于；B. at在；C. to到。

on 表示“关于”，涉及“……专业领域”。

故答案为A。

4.—I can’t find Sarah. Where is she?
—She ______ for tomorrow’s Xingcheng Cup speaking competition at home.
A. prepares
B. will prepare
C. is preparing
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意：——我找不到萨拉。

她在哪里？——她正在家里为明天的星城杯演讲比赛做准备。

A. prepares 一般现在时；B. will prepare一般将来时；C. is preparing现在进行时。

问句是询问萨拉在哪里，是说当前的情况，答语用现在进行时表示她正在做某事，故答案为C。

5.— So sorry, I took your school T-shirt by mistake. But where is _______?—Don’t worry. Let me help you find it.
A. yours
B. his
C. mine
【答案】C
【详解】句意：——太抱歉了，我错拿了你的学校T恤。

但我的呢？——别担心。

我来帮你找一下。

A. yours 你的，名词性物主代词；B. his他的，形容词性或名词性物主代词；C. mine我的，名词性物主代词。

根据前一句“I took your school T-shirt by mistake.”的句意“我错拿了你的学校T恤”，必然询问自己的T恤在哪里，故答案为C。

【点睛】人称代词分为主格和宾格，主格用作主语，宾格用作宾语。

如：He is a teacher.(主格) Let me help you.(宾格)；物主代词分为形容词性物主代词和名词性物主代词，形容词性物主代词用作定语，修饰名词，如my book, his father(形容词性物主代词)。

名词性物主代词=形容词性物主代词+名词。

如：His hands are dirtier than mine (my hands).
6.I ______ abroad for several years, but I have never regretted my final decision to move back to my motherland.
A. am living
B. lived
C. have lived
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意：我在国外住了几年，但我从未后悔我搬回祖国的最后决定。

A. am living现在进行时；B. lived 一般过去时。

C. have lived现在完成时。

根据语境理解，现在已经回国，那么住在国外就是过去的事情，句子需要用一般过去时来表达，故答案为B。

7.— Perfect photos! Good skills!
— Thank you. They ______ by my Huawei mobile phone. In fact, I am not skillful at all.
A. took
B. were taken
C. will be taken
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意：好漂亮的照片！技术真棒！——谢谢。

它们是用我的华为手机拍摄的。

事实上，我一点也不熟练。

A. took一般过去时的主动语态；B. were taken一般过去时的被动语态；C. will be taken一般将来时的被动语态。

They代指Perfect photos，与动词take之间是被动的关系，排除A；这些照片已经拍摄完毕，是在过去拍摄的，故用一般过去时态，答案为B。

8.Of the two physics problems, Martha just finished ______ one.
A. the most difficult
B. the least difficult
C. the less difficult
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意：在这两个物理问题中，玛莎刚刚完成了不那么难的一个。

A. the most difficult最难的；B. the least difficult最不难的；C. the less difficult较不难的。

根据前面的句子可知，比较的范围是两者，故用比较
级的形式，答案为C。

9.China is getting better at making hi-tech products ______ can be bought in all parts of the world.
A. who
B. which
C. what
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意：中国在制造高科技产品方面变得更加擅长，并且这些产品世界大部分地区都能买到。

此句考查定语从句的关系词。

who引导定语从句时先行词是人，who在从句中作主语或宾语；which引导定语从句时先行词是物，which在从句中作主语或宾语；what不能用来引导定语从句。

本句的先行词是hi-tech products高科技产品，指物，用which来引导，故答案为B。

【点睛】在定语从句中，关系代词所代替的先行词是人或物的名词或代词，并在句中充当主语、宾语、定语等成分。

关系代词在定语从句中作主语时，从句谓语动词的人称和数要和先行词保持一致。

1) who, whom, that这些词代替的先行词是人的名词或代词，在从句中所起作用如下：
Is he the man who/that wants to see you? 他就是想见你的人吗?(who/that在从句中作主语)
He is the man whom/ that I saw yesterday. 他就是我昨天见的那个人。

(whom/that在从句中作宾语)
2) whose 用来指人或物，(只用作定语, 若指物，它还可以同of which互换)，例如：
They rushed over to help the man whose car had broken down. 那人车坏了，大家都跑过去帮忙。

3) which, that 它们所代替的先行词是事物的名词或代词，在从句中可作主语、宾语等。

关系副词可代替的先行词是时间、地点或理由的名词，在从句中作状语。
