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 LiddellFamously, Lewis Carrollˈs Alice in Aliceˈs 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 CapoteIn To Kill a Mockingbird，Harper Lee based Dill on herchildhood friend，Truman Capote．Capote once said，"Lee was mybest friend．Have you ever read To Kill a Mockingbird？Iˈm acharacter in that story!

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 didnˈt 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 couldnˈt understand most of it at the very beginning，the whole experience was exciting andrefreshing．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 mostmemorable 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 couldnˈt wait to go back to school and talk with my French teacher．Being fullyimmersed（沉浸）in a French-speaking environment was a valuable learningexperience．And it could be the main reason for my improvement in French．When did the writer fly alone for the first time？How did the local school determine the studentsˈ language level？Did the writer enjoy the experience of communicating in French？What did the writer think of the visit to historic Quebec City？What could be the main reason for the writerˈs improvement in French？八、任务型阅读-多任务混合（本大题共1小题，共2.0分）62.Do you enjoy hitting the books？It doesnˈt mean you enjoy beating your books withyour hand．That may be reasonable if you donˈt understand something inside yourbooks．Hitting the books just means that you are studying hard．You can learn a lot when you hit the books．(1)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 canˈt 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 cultureˈs language．Languages and cultures are closelyconnected．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．" (2)这意味着某人在说话或写作时不考虑其听众或读者．Letˈs get back to idioms that begin with the word "hit"．(3)There are many of them in English，but itˈs 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，"Itˈs 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．(4)Thatˈs because a bed was often a big bag with hay inside in the past．(5) 习语使你的语言生动而有趣．Letˈs hit the road to learn some and try to use them．___________________________________九、书面表达（本大题共1小题，共20.0分）63.假如你是李华，你们班输了上周的篮球赛．Henry认为是他未能投进最后一球所造成的，有的队友也因此而责怪他．请你写一封英文邮件安慰他，谈谈你对此事的看法，并就如何取得队友的理解提出建议．要求：(1)80词左右（开头已给出，不计入总词数）；(2)可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；(3)信中不得出现真实人名和校名．Dear Henry，I learned that you are feeling sorry and upset because of losing the basketballgame___________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________答案和解析1.【答案】A【解析】句意：在橘子岛上进行野外旅行是多么有趣啊！根据句子结构可知是感叹句，在感叹句中，what修饰名词，how修饰形容词/副词，语境中fun是不可数名词，意思是乐趣，句型结构为：What +形容词+不可数名词+主语+谓语动词！故选A。
