【难易度】中等题 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。

爸爸带着Jessie 去坐热气球，随着慢慢地上升，Jessie 欣赏到很多美景。

他觉得离太阳越来越近，伸手就能够到一样。

但爸爸告诉他地球和太阳之间其实距离很远。

他很想像周围的小鸟一样飞翔。

爸爸提醒他想要的东西太多，应该多珍惜现在拥有的，不是每个小孩子都有乘坐热气球的机会。

听了爸爸的话，Jessie 想了很多，得到了很多感悟。

36.B 名词辨析。

根据第一段第二句It rose from the and moved slowly across the sky 中rose from 短语可知，热气球应该是从地面上升，慢慢地在空中移动。

故选B 。

37.A 动词辨析。

Jessie forests and many beautiful lakes and rivers.此句中，Jessie 随着热气球慢慢升空，看到很多美景，有森林、湖泊、河流。

A 项和C 项均意为“看”，但要注意的是，A 项saw 指的是看的客观结果，即“看见”；而C 项wath 往往指仔细地盯着看事物的变化。

38.B 感官动词辨析。

根据第二段第二句话，可以得知，Jessie 感觉像紧挨着太样一样。

Sounds 意为“听起来”，feels 意为“感觉起来”，smell 意为“闻起来”，因此可知道应该选择B 。

39. C 动词辨析。

A 项意为“拿走”，B 项意为“抓住”，C 项意为“触摸”。

根据上下文知道，随着热气球越升越高，Jessie 觉得太阳就在身边，一伸手就能摸到。

故选C 。

40. B 名词辨析。

根据第二段第二句，I can see the whole world and it 38 like we're right next to the sun ，得知上文中提到the sun 。

前文提到Jessie 觉得太阳离着很近，伸手就能触摸。

但随后此题中这句话是爸爸的解释，太阳其实和地球离着很远的距离。

有前后文，选出B 项。

41. A 名词辨析。

Are your 41 that long? 此句的前文中提到Jessie 觉得太阳很近，容易摸到。

爸爸在解释地球与太阳直接的距离之后，问了这句话，因此得知，应该是你的胳膊有那么长吗？故选A 。

42.C 形容词辨析。

根据前后文得知，爸爸说Jessie 想要的东西太多，应该是劝告他感谢现在所拥有的，不是所有的孩子都能乘坐热气球。

A 项careful 意为“仔细的，认真的”，B 项excited 意为“激动的，兴奋的”，C 项pleased 意为“满意的，高兴地”，因此选择C 项。

43.B 形容词辨析。

由后一句 I' m lucky to be right here 可知道，Jessie 是在肯定爸爸说的话是对的。

因此，选B 项。

44.A 副词辨析。

A 项为“安静地”，B 项为“开心地”，C 项为“悲伤地”。

有上下文得知，选A 。

45.B 形容词辨析。

后文中提到look at all the wonderful sights below ，因此应该是睁开眼睛的。

选择B 。

【解答】

"Mary, your bedroom is a mess. Come and clean it up right now," her mum said.
"I wanted to go outside and play. I'll clean it up later, Mum."
"Oh no, you won't. I've been asking you for days," her mum said.
Mary went into her bedroom. She put away all of her clothes and put all the rubbish into a plastic bag. "Mum, I'm finished," she smiled, "I'm going outside to play now."
She ran into the back garden. This was her favorite place to be. A small butterfly flew over and landed on Mary's hand. "You're a pretty little butterfly," Mary said, "Does your mum make you keep your bedroom clean?"
"What if I left my rubbish all over and didn't keep the garden clean and tidy? Would you have a nice place to sit among the flowers?" said the butterfly.
"I'd not be happy if I came out to see rubbish here and there," Mary said.
"Everybody has to do their part and keep their rooms or their flower gardens clean," the butterfly said and then flew away.
Mary hurried into the house and said to her mother, "I’ll keep my room clean from now on, Mum. I've got to do my part." And she did just that.

【考点】阅读理解(EN211)
【难易度】容易题
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。

主要叙述了Mary从不愿意整理房间到懂得自己应该主动打扫房间的事情。

46.D 词义猜测。

根据画线词之前的“I wanted to go outside and play”可知，Mary现在想出去玩儿，因此应该是玩耍回来之后再打扫房间。

所以，later的意思为“after she played outside”。

47.C 文章脉络。

根据全文的发展过程，可知应该选C。

48.C 细节理解。

从文章的第六段得知，What if I left my rubbish all over and didn't keep the garden clean and tidy? Would you have a nice place to sit among the flowers? 因此，选择C 项。

49.B 细节理解。

整个文章的发展都是围绕Mary这个孩子展开，她不爱打扫房间，通过妈妈的教诲以及the butterfly的一些话的启示，使得Mary懂得自己应该做自己力所能及的事情。

因此，整篇文章是写给孩子们看的，希望她们都能懂得这个道理。

50.C 主旨大意。

通读全文可知，并且在文章最后表达了本文的主题“Everybody has to do their part.”
46.D 47.C 48.C 49.B 50.C

This week, London will be full of celebrations to welcome the Year of the Rat. Every year, London's Chinatown holds the largest event outside of Asia to celebrate Chinese New Year.

The main Chinese New Year celebration will be held on Sunday 10th February, and about 300 000 visitors are expected to join in. Both traditional and modern Chinese arts will be shown by British-born and Chinese performers (表演者). The main event of the day is the huge parade (游行) through the streets of London, led by a traditional dragon dance, followed by musicians, artists and children.

【分析】51.A 细节理解。

52.C 细节理解。

根据第二段第三句“It will run from February to April, when the Beijing Olympic flame (奥运圣火)will pass through London”可知，时间应该是从二月到四月，共三个月，选C。

54.D 推理判断。

此题可以采用排除法，A项错，文中没有提到是否是第一次；B项错，there seems to be a huge number of interests in Chinese culture，是有很大的兴趣，而不是a bit; C 项说法太绝对，firework不是the only symbol。

Do you know you could get sick just by walking past a building? The bacteria (细菌) that cause Legionnaire's disease grow very fast in large modern buildings. They are carried by air through the buildings and outside. Legionnaire's disease is only one of the illnesses that are caused by "sick buildings".
Some buildings can make you ill because their heating and air-conditioning are controlled. Air from outside cannot get in through the closed windows. This indoor air pollution is a growing problem.
Legionnaire's disease, which can kill, is probably the most serious result of sick buildings, but other unpleasant illnesses can appear. People who work in some buildings suffer from tiredness, feeling sick and headaches. Their offices look bright and clean, but invisible (无形的) and dangerous bacteria are in the air around them.
There is an answer to the problem. The air-conditioning and heating can be tested for bacteria. Once the tests are complete, the sick building can be cured (治愈). This is expensive to do, but the
results are good. "The people in the buildings no longer get sick, and everybody is happier.

【考点】阅读理解(EN211)
【难易度】容易题
【分析】61.A 细节理解。

根据图表中显示，应该孩子在12岁时，可以买个宠物。

因此，选择A项。

62.D 细节理解。

根据图表显示，应该选择D项。

63.C 词义猜测。

根据文章中“Age of maturity—you have grown up in the eyes of the law. You can marry even without your parent's agreement”，可以猜出maturity的意思是成人，因为从此要受法律的约束，并且可以不经父母同意选择结婚。

因此，选择C。

64.D 推理判断。

此题可以根据图表中描述选出正确答案。

D项是不正确的，因为D项只能到21岁才能允许做，而不是18岁。

65.C推理判断。

题干中表述“如果你15岁的朋友将要去英国居住，那么你应该告诉他……”，从图表中看到，15岁时，如果犯法会被送进监狱。

因此，选择C。

61.A 62.D 63.C 64.D 65.C

【考点】综合填空(EN612)
【难易度】中等题
【分析】学生需要理解文章才能猜到所缺含义，落实到写单词大部分同学有困难，词形变化又是体现试题的梯度所在。

66.houses 根据前文得知，芝加哥发生了一场大火，因此此空应该是超过17000的房子被烧毁。

67.lucky 此空应该填一个形容词，根据前后文大火烧毁了超过17000房子，但人员伤亡较少，因此这里可以用lucky。

68.knocked 这里考到了固定搭配knock over，“打翻”。

69.its 此空处于“with”之后，介词之后接应该用名词，后面有head，因此需要填人称代词，its。

70.known 这句话的大体意思是：尽管这种说法还在传播，但真正的原因还不知道。

st 根据句意，穷人们没有离开自己的房子，为了能保护他们的财物。

因此，能知道是知道最后时间，不得不离开，他们才走了。

72.However 后文中说，他们是在大火快要烧到房屋的时候，被强制撤离的。

与前文中不肯离开形成转折，因此需填一个连词，however。

73.Thousands 固定搭配，thousands of表示成千上万的。

74.which 定语从句，前面先行词为the high building，用which引导。

75.by 介词。

By有“通过”之意。

【解答】66. houses 67. lucky 68. knocked 69. its 70. known
71. last 72. However 73. Thousands 74. which 75. by
