The main goal of it is to make the countries work together in more areas. It has won the support of more than 130 countries and international groups. As a Chinese student, you must know something about the Silk Road.Long ago, traders brought treasures from the East to the West. Trips to the East became more favourable when traders found silks and spices(香料). These treasures were not ordinary goods that were easy to get. Many people wanted them and it was a good way to become wealthy.The Silk Road was not a real road. It was a route(路线) between the East and the West. It went through China, Turkey, and Greece. Some traders travelled over land and others sailed across the sea. There was danger along both routes.Traders who went over the land used camels and horses. First, the traders crossed the desert. Then, they climbed over mountains. After that, the traders still had hundreds of miles to go. Bad weather was often a problem. Robbers who stole the silks and spices also caused trouble.Traders who crossed the sea faced some of the same problems. There were storms on the sea. Water and winds could push the boats in the wrong direction. Pirates(海盗) also chased the ships and they stole the goods and took control of the ships.Over time, the Silk Road changed people in both the East and the West. Traders shared stories about faraway lands. They brought back drawings of the places and things they had seen, which helped people learn about new cultures. As a result of the Silk Road, the world seemed much smaller.根据短文内容 ,答复以下问题。

A radio sends a person’s voice over a long way to another radio. A voice that is sent by radio is called a signal (信号). A radio signal travels very quickly.Only a few years ago, mobile phones were very large. They needed large batteries (电池). They had to be powerful（功率高的）to send their signals to faraway places. This was because most cities had only one antenna tower for mobile phones.Today’s mobile phones are small and easy to use. Now most cities have a lot of antenna towers, not just one. This means that each mobile phone doesn’t have to send its signal far away, so they don’t need to be so powerful. Mobile phones today use small batteries. A large city, where lots of mobile phones are used, can have hundreds of towers.Do you know what use a mobile phone has? Yes, you can use it to do a lot of things.Call your friends and family from almost anywhere.Call the police immediately if there is an accident in the street.Send or receive e-mails.Get information from the Internet.Send and receive messages.Sending short written messages is a popular way to use your mobile phone.

I never studied, but always got perfect scores. I thought I was born clever. At least I believed so. I was also a prodigy in music according to myself. I could sing better than almost everyone else in my school. I was pretty sure that once I got to sixth grade, everyone would be surprised by me.But actually, they weren’t.When I arrived at my new class, I couldn’t wait to show everyone what I could do.However, there was always someone else who could do them better. My grades began to suffer.More talented(有天资的) girls often sang solo (独唱). I believed I wasn’t smart. I believed Iwasn’t talented. I believed I was a failure.Over the next two years, I had to work very hard. Every prize for the singing competition was given to me for hard work and effort. Grades were still very low but improving little by little. I worked really hard. However, I was never the best at everything.I haven’t realized until recently that I really don’t have to be the best at everything. I was too hard on myself. In fact, when I did badly in a test, my classmates never laughed at me.No one is perfect. There will probably always be someone better than me at something. Anyway, there are over seven billion people in this world. I will never be the number one at everything, and that’s really okay.21.What does “a prodigy” probably mean in English?A. A smart kid.B.

Hard work doesn’t workD. How to be perfectBIt has been forty years since China’s Reform and Opening-up(改革开放). Let’s see how China has changed through the years.1978-1988: New LookIn a 1978 Japanese documentary(纪录片) China’s New Look, there was a scene showing Chinese people’s life back then. In front of an old-fashioned TV set, some Shanghainese gathered around to watch a TV show. In 1981, only one out of every 170 city families in China had a colour TV.1988-1998: ▲In October 1990, the first McDonald’s on the Chinese mainland opened for business in Shenzhen. It quickly became the hottest tourist spot(旅游景点). “Many Chinese customers waited in line and shouted to the shop assistant, ‘I want 10 Big Macs,’” recalled a waiter at McDonald’ s at that time.1998-2008: Here Comes WTOFor many Chinese, the year 2001 was very unforgettable. It marked the start of a new millennium(一千年) and led to a whole new era(时代) as China joined the World Trade Organization(WTO). From 2001 to 2017, China’s average(平均的) growth of the imports(进口) of goods and services was more than twice the world’s average.2008-2018: New BeginningShanghai, a city of long-time business culture, is always a step ahead in China’s foreign trade. With the successful hosting of China’s first import expo(展览会) in November 2018, the city went on to develop China’s import business. The expo will be remembered as a new beginning for China’s import history.26.Which picture shows the scene of China’s New Look?A B C D27.Which of the following can be put in ▲?A.

Worried.29.What can we learn after China joined the WTO?A. Chinese people began to travel abroad.B. China grew very fast in its imports.C. China became more and more popular.D. Foreigners bought a lot of products from China.30.When and where was China’s first import expo held?A. In Shanghai, in November, 2001.B. In Shenzhen, in November, 2001.C. In Shanghai, in November, 2018.D. In Shenzhen, in November, 2018.C“Life is speeding up.Everyone is getting unwell.”This may sound like something someone would say today.But in fact, an unknown person who lived in Rome in AD 53 wrote it.We all love new inventions.They are exciting, amazing and can even change our lives.But have all theseinventions really improved the quality of our lives?Picture this.You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer.Your mobile phone rings. A WeChat message from your friend appears on the screen, and the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work.Now you have to stay up all night to get it done.How happy do you feel?Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us stressed and tired.Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have no telephones, no cars, even no electricity often seem to be happier? Perhaps because they live simpler lives.One family in the UK went back in time to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today.The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons Benjamin,10 and Thomas, 7, spent nine weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phone.The grandmother, Lyn, said, “The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes.” The boys said they fought less.Probably, they said, because there was less to fight over, such as their computer.Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a “trendy, beer-drinking granny” to one who cooked things.31.The writer uses the quote(引号) at the beginning of the story to ________.A. tell us a truth about our livesB. tell us what life was like long time agoC. point out what causes such a thing to happenD. point out some problems we will meet in life32.In the passage, the writer describes a picture to show that new inventions ________.A. have speeded up our livesB. may bring people some troubleC. may make people feel very happyD. have improved the quality of our lives33.The family chose to spend some time in a 1940s house because ________.A. they loved to live simple livesB. they were troubled by modern inventionsC. living in a different time would be a lot of fun for themD. they wanted to know how people lived without modern inventions34.According to the passage, which is NOT right?A. People who live far away from noisy cities often seem to be happier.B. The family had some changes when they lived in a 1940s house.C. An unknown Roman was sure that the quality of life would get better.D. With the improvement of our lives, we often feel stressed and tired.35.The passage is mainly about ________.A. problems with technologyB. changes of technologyC. the importance of technologyD. improvements in our lives with technology四、从方框中选择最佳选项补全对话（有两项多余）（每小题1分，共5分）Tom: Hi, Paul. I haven’t seen you for years. 36Paul: Sorry. Do we know each other? Who are you?Tom: I’m Tom, your cousin. 37Paul: Let me see. Oh, yes. I heard you were in Cambridge University.Tom: Yes. But now I have finished the university.Paul: 38 But now you are thin and tall. So I couldn’t.Tom: Really? I used to have tons of sweet food. So I was very fat.Paul: 39Tom: Yes.

See you next time.Tom: See you.As we know, transformers can change into super-fast cars.Now, scientists at Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have made these robots for real.They are not made of metal but paper!Some parts of these robots are made of toy materials.After putting in small batteries, the paper robots will start to walk slowly. They change from paper into robots in just four minutes.The robots can help people a lot.They can make discoveries in space and other dangerous places.They can also get into a place that is not wide to help people in danger.Scientists think that these robots may start a robotic revolution in the future.They believe that one day when someone wants a robot to walk their dog, he could go to a store with special machines to make it.“In principle, it will be possible to say, ‘I want a robot to play chess with me.‘and make a machine that is able to play chess with you,” one scientist said.However, they can’t change back into paper or change into other shapes.Once they are changed, they are fixed.根据短文内容完成下列句子41.These new robots are made of ________.42.The robots will begin to walk slowly after ________small batteries.43.A paper robot usually takes just ________to change into a robot.44.These robots can’t change back into paper or change into________.45.The passage mainly talks about________.六、用方框中所给单词的适当形式补全短文（每词限用一次）（每小题1分，共10分）46Ms Davis was my 6th grade teacher.I can 47 all the stories she told the class.And I especially remember one story that 48 me a lot.For weeks, I always had a(n) 49 look on my face.She told a story about a friend of hers.Her friend also kept a scowl(怒容) on her face.She would smile only when she was singing.In 50 , she was very beautiful when she smiled.When Ms Davis told the story, she was looking directly at me. 51 then, I have been careful about my expression.I also remember a trip.The bus didn’t have 52 seats for all the children, so Ms Davis chose me to ride with her.While in the car, we talked about my family.I liked to talk about 53 life with her because she always gave me some good advice.I felt that Ms Davis 54 me differently, because she cared about me, gave me rides and talked about my family. 55 looking back, she didn’t do special things for me but for the whole class.She just made each oneof us feel that we were her favorite.Thanks, Ms Davis.46.________47.________48.________49.________50.________51.________52.________53.________54.________55.________七、书面表达（25分）世界在发展，生活在变化。

However, there was always someone else who could do them better. My grades began to suffer. More talented (有天资的) girls often sang solos (独唱). I didn’t believe I was smart. I didn’t believe I was talented. I believed I was a fail ure.Over the next two years, I had to work very hard. Every prize for the singing competition was given to me for hard work and effort. Grades were still very low butimproving little by little. I worked really hard. However, I was never the best at everything.I haven’t realized until recently that I really don’t have to be the best at everything. I was too hard on myself. In fact, when I did badly in a test, my classmates never laughed at me.No one is perfect. There will probably always be someone better than me at something.

But as you grow up, you should learn how to do things on your own, because part of being an adult is to get certain basic life skills. However, it turns out that many kids, even adults are gradually losing these skills. Nowad ays, some children don’t know how to deal with the difficulties they meet. When in trouble, they ask their parents for help right away. In this way, they won’t form their own independence (独立) forever.Why do children lose their abilities of independence? One reason is that many parents often pay more attention to children’s studies and grades, but easily forget theimportance of children’s independence. Once the children leave the family, they won’t have the abilities to take care of themselves.The American expert Tuimeng has spent more than 30 years researching 1, 500 children, and he found that excellent children have independent abilities and persistent (坚持不懈的) spirits. They are willing to tackle any difficulties by themselves.In fact, every child has a strong sense of independence. When they can independently complete a thing, they will be very proud and happy. So parents should give their children support and encouragement.( )70. What is part of being an adult?A. To learn how to manage time.B. To learn some basic life skills.C.

Some of them were round, while others were square.Folding paper fans became popular during the Song Dynasty. There were usually beautiful pictures on the fans. Some were landscapes. Others were flowers and animals. Many people including Su Dongpo, a poet of the Song Dynasty, and Tang Yin, a scholar and painter of the Ming Dynasty, even painted their own masterpieces11on fans. This made the fans into works of art. Many people liked holding fans to show their status and wisdom.Today, fans are popular gifts. At the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, folding fans were given to leaders and officials from other countries, as well as audience members. While they were waving their fans to get cool air, they were also experiencing Chinese culture.73. What were fans first used to do ?
