Forgetful.DIn the 1960s，a musical group composed a popular song titled Monday，Monday："Every other day of the week is fine，yeah.But whenever Mondaycomes，you can find me crying all of the time."When talking about days ofthe week，Monday gets little expectation.I surveyed friends，and the results were very clear.When asked which day of the week they like the least，90 percent of my friends chose Monday.Not one person thought of Monday as his or her favorite day.First of all，consider all the good things that happen on Mondays.If you are a sports fan，you may get to watch Monday Night Football in the fall.Furthermore，quite a few public holidays，are celebrated on Mondays.That means that several times a year，a Monday provides a three-day weekend.And according to websites，Monday is the best day to do shopping because there aren't as many people shopping on the first day of the workweek.Experts say that you can also get the best online deals on Mondays.This is especially true for electronics，such as computers，TVs，and video games.To me，however，there's something even more important about Mondays.Each Monday stands for a new beginning.For example，last week I got behind on my homework and had to spend the weekend catching up.But as soon as Monday arrived，I had a clean slate.Another week I forgot to do some of my chores，so I had to give up going to a movie with my friends on the weekend.I also love Mondays because we usually start new lessons at school at the beginning of the week.While last week's topics may have been boring，Monday can bring a new book to read，more experiments to do，or math problems to work out.Besides，I always become full of energy on Mondays after getting enough sleep at weekends.I realize that I am probably not going to make everyone believe that Monday is the best day of the week，but hopefully I can encourage a few people to change.The next time a Monday comes，think about all the good things that could happen and look forward to the day instead of fearing it. There's no way to avoid Mondays，so join me in making the best of them.Who knows？You might even start liking the first day of the workweek.22. Why did the song Monday，Monday become popular？______A. They enjoyed to be warmed up by the song.B. The song encouraged them to like Mondays.C. The song expressed how they disliked Mondays.D. The song always made them cry all of the time.23. The words"a clean slate"in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______ .A. a good restB. a sudden stopC. a new lessonD. a fresh start24. The sentence"But in fact，I think that Monday is actually the best day of the week."can be best put at ______ .A. the end of the first paragraphB. the beginning of the third paragraphC. the beginning of the fourth paragraphD. the end of the fifth paragraph25. The writer might agree that ______ .A. it's better to be energetic on MondaysB. students behave best on Mondays at schoolC. a three-day holiday should be offered every weekD. we should try our best to encourage most people26. What is the best title of the passage？______A. To discover Mondays' secretsB. To make the best of MondaysC. To turn Mondays into holidaysD. To improve yourself on Mondays四、任务型阅读-多任务混合（本大题共1小题，共7.0分）27.Touch down to EarthChina welcomed three heroic astronauts Zhai Zhigang，Wang Yaping and Ye Guangfu home on April 16.This return ended the Shenzhou XIII astronauts' six-month space mission.It also marks a major breakthrough for China's efforts in space.In order to return home safely，they did a lot of preparations before leaving the space station.If you are coming home after a long journey，you have to pack up For astronauts in space，besides their personal belongings，they"packed" experimental data and samples，they would be further researched on Earth.The astronauts had to tidy up a large number of materials，including goods on the Tianzhou 3 cargo spacecraft，according to Zhong Weiwei，a researcher at the China Astronaut Research and TrainingCenter.Since the space station had no room service，the three astronauts needed to "clear the house" on their own.They collected a great amount of waste.This included leftover foods，sanitary （卫生）waste and waste from in-orbit experiments.The waste was then put into the orbital module（轨道舱），which burnt up as it reentered Earth's atmosphere.To ensure their safe and sound return，the three astronauts had been doing physical exercise to train their muscles for the return to Earth.Based on their in-orbit physical examinations and data，experts had customize（定制）exercise plans for each of them to ensure a safe landing Travelling in space has been a dream for every Chinese.And now we are looking forward to more explorations.(1) How did experts help the three astronauts return？______(2) What preparations did the astronauts do before returning to Earth？（Give the answer with no more than 20 words）______(3) What do you think of staying in space？Why do you think so？（Give the reason with no more than 15 words）______五、选词填空-短文（本大题共1小题，共5.0分）28.send publish attend important conditionThe health condition of the giant panda Ya Ya at the Memphis Zoo in Tennessee，the U.S，triggered concern among Chinese netizens（网民）who hoped the panda would return to the motherland as soon as possible.According to the photos（1）______ on the Internet，skinny and dirty Ya Ya lived in poor（2）______ .The giant panda displayed stereotyped behavior except for extensive skin diseases，suspected malnutrition （营养不良）and diarrhea（腹泻），a volunteer in America told Top App.The Chinese Association of Zoological Gardens （CAZG）said that it attached great （3）______ to Ya Ya and would communicate with the Memphis Zoo after sorting out information from Ya Ya's fans and netizens.And Chinese experts（4）______ to the Memphis Zoo to check Ya Ya's health condition in March this year.It seemed Ya Ya would come back soon.Female giant panda Ya Ya，together with male giant panda Le Le，was rented by the Memphis Zoo in 2003 and Le Le died in early February 2023.Luckily，giant panda Ya Ya finally arrived at Shanghai Pudong International Airport from Memphis，Tennessee at the end of April.The zoo hosted a farewell party for the 23-year-old female panda on April 8，with hundreds of people （5）______ the event.(1)(2)(3)(4)(5)六、阅读填空（本大题共1小题，共10.0分）29.

It doesn’t seem like people in the US will forget h im. Twain once joked that a lack(缺少)of money is the root of all evil(邪恶)” but a lack of money with Twain’s famous face on it wouldn’t have made people forget about him.The Adventures of Huckberry Finn is thought to be his greatest works.Motherless Huc k Finn is a young boy who shows the spirit of freedom. But it could be said that Huck’s freedom really comes from Huck wanting to fly. When Huck gets away from his violent(暴力的) father，he isn’t really looking for freedom，but survival.It’s even more of a problem for a slave. Jim，the escaped(逃跑的) slave who Huck helps，makes Huck’s life seem even better. It’s easier not to be able to deal with someone who wants to force you to go to school than to have to fight a law that says you are a piece of property(财产).Huck and Jim’s friendship，as shown by Mark Twain，is one of the great stories in American literature because it shows a white character，Huck，who gets an idea of the African American experience.Mark Twain is famous and would still be famous without any special coins. Anyway，the coins could be a reason to look again at the work of a writer who got under the skin of the US in the 19th century.With the race issue(种族问题)______in the US today，perhaps Twain still has something to teach today’s readers. 1．How many novels is mentioned written by Mark Twain in this passage?A．One B．Two C．Three D．Four2．Why is The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn considered Twain’s greatest works?A．It talks about how a black slave runs away from his violent owner.B．It describes an everlasting friendship between people of different races.C．It describes the social problem that a lack of money is the root of all evil.D．It talks about a white American understanding the African American experience.3．According to the passage，which statement is NOT true?A．Huck gets away from his father for survival.B．Jim escapes from his slave owner for freedom.C．Twain dug deeply into American society of his times.D．Without the special coins，he’ll probably be forgotten.4．The under lined phrase “far from dead” probably means _______.A．still being there. B．Becoming more serious.C．Being in danger. D．Gone for a long time.5．What’s the main purpose of the article?A．To tell the story of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.B．To tell readers about the special coins created to honor Mark Twain.C．To explore why the US still remembers and honors Mark Twain.D．To draw readers’ attention to the many race issues in the US today.C15、A Survey of Group MembersName Age Favorite subject HobbyMary 14 science singingJohn 15 history swimmingSusan 15 physics tennis1．________ likes to play tennis.A．Mary B．John C．Susan2．What can we learn from the survey?A．Mary likes science best.B．John likes to sing in his free time.C．The three members are the same age.D16、Clara sits at her desk deep in thought. She stares at the math problem in front of her desperately trying to remember how to solve it, but as she sits there her long list of homework plays over in her head, and she becomes overwhelmed. She bites her lip thinking and thinking. Then she hears a song on the radio. As she turns up the music, a wave of calm spreads over her body, she closes her eyes and listens to the music.When the song ends, Clara’s eyes open and she turns off the r adio. She looks again at the troublesome question and sighs, “I remember how to do this now,” she says to herself. Then she finishes the problem, but this time calmer than before.According to NPR news, 45% of teens say they are stressed by school pressures, such as homework and grades. High school, and all of the honors and AP courses, can stress out teens like Clara to the point of exhaustion, but itdoesn’t have to be this way. Lots of students can use stress relievers to simmer down during their school day. Music can be one of those reliefs.When the body is stressed, it releases cortisol (释放皮质醇), a life sustaining adrenal hormone (肾上腺荷尔蒙) nicknamed “the stress hormone”. By playing music, students stop the flow (流动) of cortisol released from their body, therefore returning to their normal, non-stressed self quicker than someone who didn’t hear or play any music.When returning to this state, teens can think more clearly, with their stress gone. Music does not only calm the stressed mind, it develops creativity, as well as improving math and reading skills. A music class can help students who are stressed and give them an hour of relaxation during their day. This can help high schoolers have a clear mind to concentrate on their schoolwork. Adding music to a teen’s day can help them become less stressed and finally help them with their courses, making a smarter generation.Now, I know you’re thinking, “What about kids who find playing a musical instrument hard or boring? How would taking a music class help th em?” Well, even though playing an instrument doesn’t necessarily help all teens, it is agreed that there are very few teens who do not listen to music. This shows that all students, in their own way, like hearing music throughout their day. The music that they listen to calms them and gives them reassurance (保证) that they can make it through their schoolwork. That being said, all schools should have a required hour of ‘relaxation’ time when high schoolers would listen to music, do easy homework, and calm themselves down after their long school day.Music helps kids in their education, providing them with a brighter future and ensuring that they take care of their generation, the generation before them, and the generations to come.1．The words “becomes overwhelmed” in Paragraph 1 probably mean “________”.A．loses confidence B．feels disappointedC．can not think clearly D．isn’t sure about the answers2．What can we learn from the passage?A．Music helps students to be more creative.B．Few students can relax themselves at school.C．Adding music to a teen’s day stops them from studying.D．Music speeds up the flow of cortisol released from the body.3．According to Paragraph 5, we know that ________.A．taking a music class is hard and boringB．all teens listen to music in their own wayC．playing an instrument is necessary for all teensD．all schools have a required hour of ‘relaxation’ time4．What is the best title of the passage?A．The Bright Future of MusicB．The Way of Calming DownC．The Calming Power of MusicD．The Way of Solving ProblemsE17、What are you going to do if you are in a burning house？How will you escape？Do you know how to save yourself？Please read the following passage.Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save you life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family，such as stairways and fire escapes，but not lifts.From the lower floors of the buildings，escaping through windows is possible，learn the best way of leaving by windows with the least chance of serious injury.The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average person，hanging by the finger-tips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course，it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed. Or smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may leaked （渗）into the room.On a second or third floor，the best windows for escape are those that open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement might end in injury. Bushes and grass can help to break a fall. 1．It is important to _______.A．put out the fire in the burning houseB．know the ways to escape the fireC．jump off a burning houseD．keep the door closed2．It is possible to escape through the windows _______.A．if there are some bushes on the groundB．if you are strong enoughC．if you live on a lower floorD．If you have a long rope3．Which of the following escaping way is NOT right？_______.A．Y ou can escape though stairways.B．Y ou can choose fire escapes.C．Escape from the windows that open onto a roof.D．Use a lift to come down at once.F18、Many of us might want to take on traditional jobs when we grow up, such as being a doctor or lawyer. However, there are many more choices than just these that are available today.In October, a job-hunting website issued a report after surveying people who work fitness coach and make up artist. Most of the jobs pay well, with one in three workers earning more than 8,000 yuan a month. The top-paying job is vet-- about 29 percent of these animal doctors earn over 20,000 yuan per month.These workers’ educational background is also impressive (令人印象深刻的). Over 60 percent of the surveyed workers have a college degree (学位) or above, the report says. Most of the workers said they chose their jobs out of love and interest in the area. Many of the jobs are no longer specific to one gender. For example, the report found that one-third of child care workers are men. These positions used to be filled almost only by women.Many of these jobs are in the service industry. Economic (经济的) development means people have more money to spend and are in greater need of high-quality services China News Service noted. For example, more people have started to raise pets. Pet owners will spend over 5,000 yuan per pet this year, an increase of 15 percent from 2018, Xinhua reported. The growing demand for animal care, therefore, has encouraged more people to become veterinarians (兽医).1．What does the report issued by show?A．Most people still prefer to work as doctors or lawyers.B．There are many new job choices these days.C．There are 800 different jobs in major Chinese cities.2．Which job has the best pay according to the survey?A．Veterinarian.

C．Make-up artist.3．Why are there many new jobs in the service industry?A．Because people need more high-quality services.B．Because they require less skill and knowledge.C．Because there are no gender-differences in this industry.4．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A．Most of the workers chose their jobs out of love and interest in the area.B．More people have started to raise pets.C．Women will be replaced by men in the child care industry.5．What can we infer from the story?A．Finding a job in big cities has become easier in recent years.B．Other new jobs may appear with people's future demands.C．College degrees are a must for working in cities.Ⅴ.书面表达19、人们对于学生网上交友持不同意见。

For those who have experienced the loss of hugs ,you will know how important they are to share.A recent research has shown that when people hug , the brain releases(释放)the chemical which increases our willingness to trust and reduces fear.

After trying different medical treatments,the nurse on duty, Gayle Kasparian , placed the twins in bed together. The twins immediately snuggled(依偎)up to each other. As one placed her arm around the other, the weak baby became better gradually. How great the power of a hug is !The need for hugs doesn't disappear as we grow older,though it seems we are less willing to give them. Research on people of all ages has proven that a hug is necessary for physical and emotional health.Without hugs we can become sad. A hug provides safety and gentleness.

At a bus station, I watched a young girl cry as her baggage(行李) was taken down. It seemed she’d lost her ticket. She begged the bus driver not to leave her behind.“Losing your ticket is like losing money,” the bus dr iver said, and left her in the rain.But then an old man stood up and blocked the driver’s way. “How can you leave that girl out there? Y ou know she had a ticket. You can’t just leave her here. You can’t leave her in a city where she doesn’t have a friend. You will meet your schedule(日程安排), but she might meet her end.”The driver showed no sign that he’d heard or even cared about the young girl’s problem, or how her travels went.So the old gentleman said: “I’ll pay for her ticket. I’ll give her a little money to help her on her way.”He went and bought a ticket for the girl. “How can I repay the kindness you’ve shown tonight?” she asked. “We’re strangers who won’t meet again.

In 1981 he ensured(确保) that Seoul was elected to be the host of the 1988 Olympics. Remember, that was a time when the two Koreas were at war with each other. And because Samaranch helped swing(使改变) Spanish votes(投票) across to London, rather than to Paris, London was made host for the 2012. To China and the Chinese people, Samaranch was considered a great friend. Thanks to his efforts(努力) during his last term as IOC president, Beijing and China won the Olympics for the first time.Samaranch led the IOC from 1980 to 2001. Certainly, throughout his IOC presidential term, he had a soft spot for Moscow, for it was there that he was elected president of the IOC in 1980, and it was there that he managed to reach his final wishes as IOC president. Very early on in that 2001 Moscow session he wanted the Belgian surgeon, Jacques Rogge, a newcomer to the Olympic Movement, to replace him as president, for China to host the 2008 Olympic Games and for his son, Juan Antonio Samaranch junior, to become an IOC member.

We will see this kind of cars soon in America. These quiet, clean cars run on electricity. Carmakers will start selling electric cars in 2011.The world’s population will jump from 6.8 billion to 9 billion by 2050. The need for cars will jump with it. But the oil(石油) won’t keep up with the number of cars on the road. So the price of oil will go up.Electric cars aren’t perfect just yet. It can take eight hours to charge(充电) a car for only 100 miles of driving. And the distance(路程) that cars can go depends on driving conditions(条件). How far it travels depends on the weather and traffic.Price is a problem, too. Electric models cost much more than oil-powered cars. The good news is that electric-car technology is getting better. As it does, the prices of this kind of cars are dropping.To charge the car, the US Department of Energy is paying for at least 10,000 charging stations around the country. Private businesses are also getting ready for it. It will cost about $3 for each charge.Carmakers are coming up with other ways to make the car cleaner and cheaper. Cars may run on clean diesel(柴油). So who knows what will power the car you may be driving in 10 years? The chances are that it will be something that’s clean and easy.1．The electric cars are ________.A．large and noisyB．large and quietC．clean and quiet2．Paragraph Two mainly tells us the reason why ________.A．electric cars appearB．the population is growingC．the oil price goes up3．How far the electric car travels depends on the ________.A．water and weatherB．weather and trafficC．drivers and oil4．Why aren’t the electric cars perfect?A．The cars don’t look nice and they’re slow.B．The cars can’t be driven fast and they’re dangerous.C．The cars take a long time to be charged and they cost too much.5．From the passage we know that ________________.A．electric cars will be more expensiveB．nobody knows what will power the cars in 10 yearsC．electric cars will be used by most people in 10 yearsD16、An Englishman, a Frenchman and a Russian were discussing happiness. "Happiness," said the Englishman, "Happiness is when you return home tired after work, yet find your slippers(拖鞋) warming by the fire.""You English have no romance," said the Frenchman. "Happiness is when you go on a business trip, find a pretty girl who entertains you －then afterwards you part(道别) without regrets（遗憾）.""You are both wrong," said the Russian. "True happiness is when you are at home in bed and at 4 a.m., you hear a ring at the door and outside stand the secret police, who say to you, 'Ivanovitch, you are under arrest', and you say, 'Sorry, Ivanovitch lives next door.'"1．The Englishman's happiness suggests that _______.A．he should have no time to warm his slippersB．he enjoys the warmth of the familyC．he thinks it the most important to have slippersD．he wants someone to warm his slippers2．What the Frenchman said means that _______.A．a man can be free to play with any pretty girl when possibleB．he wants to marry a girl he lovesC．he is interested in going on a business tripD．the Englishman should have more romance3．The meaning of the Russian's words is that _______.A．he would like to have a good sleep at nightB．he will feel happy if his neighbour is arrestedC．he thinks it happiness to feel safeD．he will feel afraid if anyone knocks at his door at nightE17、 A bicycle may be seen by most people as just another vehicle (交通工具)，but for many people in London,cycling is a way of life. According to an official UK government survey in 2017, about 570,000 bike journeys are made every day in London. In fact, almost half of the vehicles that pass over London Bridge each day are bikes.London introduced a public bike-sharing system in 2010. "There can be no doubt that our trusty bicycles have changed the way people get around our great city," Johnson told the Guardian in 2015.In London, bike are used for more than just taking short trips to and from the subway. No matter where you want to go in the city, taking a bike is usually the quickest and easiest choice.And it's not just shared bikes that the government is encouraging people to ride. In many companies across the UK, the UK government's Cycle to Work scheme (倡议)allows employees to buy a brand new bike without having to pay any tax(税). This means that it's common to see many people cycling to and from work, and some employee even provide workplace showers and lockers (储物柜) for their workers. More importantly, a cycle-friendly boss may let you off for being late if you rode a bike to work.Not only is it great for the environment and our body, cycling is also good for the mind.

Every student in his or her second year of high school is required to take a class in driver’s education. However, unlike other courses, it is not given during the regular school year. Instead it is a summer course.The course is divided into two parts: class time for learning laws and rules and driving time to practice driving. Class time is not unlike any other class. The students study the basic traffic laws from a text to pass the written driving test that is given to anyone who wants to get a driver’s license.Driving time is a chance for the students to get behind the wheel and practice starting. Each student is required to drive a total of six hours. The students are divided into groups of four. The students and the instructor go out driving for two hours each time. So each student gets half an hour driving time per outing.Drivers' Ed cars are unlike other cars in which they have two sets of brakes(刹车), one on the driver's side and one on the other side where the instructor sits. So if the student driver should run into difficulties, the instructor can take over. The car also has another special feature. On the top of the car is a sign that reads: STUDENT DRIVER. That lets nearby drivers know that they should use extra caution because the student driver is a beginning driver, not very experienced.After the student has passed the driver's education course and reached the suitable age to drive (this age differs in every state but in most cases the person must be 16 years old), they can go to a the state office to take their driver's test, which is made up of an eye examination, a written test, and a road test. The person must pass all the three tests in order to be given a driver's license.1．We can infer that the students are required to ________ in their whole driving practice.A．go out driving for 12 times B．spend at least six hours drivingC．drive for two-hour blocks of time D．get half an hour driving2．In America, the driver's course mentioned above is ________.A．considered as part of the advanced educationB．given to anyone wanting to get a driver's licenseC．carried on at the same time as other coursesD．required of all the students of Grade 2 in high schools3．To prevent accidents, a driver's ED car ________.A．has a sign inside it B．has two sets of brakesC．is big enough to hold five persons D．can't run very fast4．Which of the following does not agree with the requirements for the students wanting to get their driver's license? A．They must be 16 years of age.B．They should go to have their driver's course.C．They must have their eyes examined.D．They ought to do well in their driver's course.5．The underlined word “caution” in paragraph 4 means ________.A．being brave B．courage C．being careful D．patienceC15、If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today, many teenagers are overweight, and some of this is because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers love food with a lot of fat, oil, salt and sugar. People often call this kind of food “junk food”.But bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenagers eat unhealthily. Some do n’t have breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don’t have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent survey at one school, scientists found that over two-thirds of the students didn't follow a healthy diet. They didn’t like vegetables, and man y of them didn’t like to eat fruits. They preferred to eat food with a lot of salt, sugar or fat.Parents today also worry about their children’s diet. Some doctors give the following advice:Teenagers shouldn’t eat too much junk food.Teenagers shouldn’t eat food with too much salt. Salt can cause high blood pressure in the future.Teenagers should eat food with less fat, oil and sugar.Teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and have little fat.Teenagers need to drink more milk. Milk will help their bones grow. Teenagers need to eat breakfast every day. This is good for their body and mind. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填入题前括号内。

Until his final few days, I grew up completely lacking(缺少) hugs. Neither of my parents was the cuddly(令人想拥抱的) type. Greetings including kissing embarrassed me, and hugging generally just made me feel 1 .Then one hug changed all that. One month before my 40th birthday my dad had a heart disease. As he came round, days later, he grabbed me and 2 me so hard that I had to push to keep my head from pressing down on his chest.It was a hug to make up for all those we had 3 had. Days later as he slowly started to gain strength he told me for the first time that he loved me, and through my 4 I told him I loved him too.I began planning how to bake(烘焙) him better -- with carrot 5 , victoria sponges, jelly and ice cream. And I imagined wheeling him 6 the park and feeding him home-made goodies. Then he died.I felt cheated. All my life I had wondered whether my dad loved me -- I doubted it. Just as I got proof that he did, he 7 .My parents split up when I was two years old and, 8 I had monthly contact with my dad, usually, he, my bitter stepmother and I counted the hours until I could go home again.The weekends at my father's house felt 9 . I didn't have any clear close father- daughter 10 to cling (依恋) to and recall. Most of them were of uncomfortable times together, but I missed him being alive very much, To a child, a hug 11 so many things. It tells you that the person hugging you loves you, and12 for you. A hug also confirms that you are a lovable being. Months after dad's death I somewhat realized that his lack of hugs said more than about him than me. My father was not a(n) 13 man and I was, therefore, perhaps, a lovable being.Once I realized my feelings changed from those of a needy child to ones of a proud daughter. Looking at my father more objectively (客观) 14 me to view him clearly: he was a man of few words but kind and modest, Dad's hug had a deep effect on me. It carried me along a path from a 15 to an adult, at last I am my own woman and one who loves nothing better than a good old-fashioned hug.1．A．excited B．pleased C．proud D．uncomfortable2．A．beat B．kissed C．hugged D．praised3．A．once B．never C．ever D．often4．A．smiles B．tears C．laughs D．words5．A．cakes B．cream C．noodles D．vegetables6．A．on to B．out of C．through D．towards7．A．passed away B．passed out C．passed on D．passed down8．A．because B．while C．for D．as9．A．warm B．cold C．hot D．cool10．A．relations B．memories C．stories D．hugs11．A．speaks B．talks C．reminds D．says12．A．looks B．searches C．cares D．longs13．A．expressive B．talkative C．impressive D．attractive14．A．forced B．asked C．allowed D．ordered15．A．daughter B．father C．child D．studentⅢ. 语法填空12、A long time ago, there was an emperor.

" And with that he chased him into the open field.The horse was sad. There the fox met him and said, "Why do you hang your head, and go about all alone?" "Alas," replied the horse, " My master has forgotten what services I have done for him for so many years, and because I can no longer plow(犁地) well, he will give me no more food, and has driven me out. "" Without giving you a chance?" asked the fox." The chance was a bad one. He said , if I were still strong enough to bring him a lion , he would keep me , but he knows that I cannot do that. "The fox said, "I will help you. Just lie down,______as if you were dead. " The horse did as the fox asked, and then the fox went to the lion, and said, "A dead horse is lying out there. Just come with me, and you can have a rich meal. "The lion went with him, and when they were both standing by the horse, the fox said, "After all, it is not very comfortable for you here—l tell you what—l will fasten it to you by the tail, and then you can pull it into your cave and eat it in peace. "The advice pleased the lion. He positioned himself in order that the fox might tie the horse fast to him, and he kept completely quiet. But the fox tied the lion's legs together with the horse's tail. When he had finished his work , he tapped the horse on the shoulder and said, "Pull, white horse, pull! "Then up sprang(跳跃) the horse at once, and pulled the lion away with him. The lion began to roar(吼叫) so that all the birds in the forest flew up in fear, but the horse let him roar, and drew him and pulled him across the field to his master's door. When the master saw the lion, he was moved, and said to the horse, " You shall stay with me and I will treat you well. " And he gave him plenty to eat until he died.根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填人题前括号内。
