them float through the air，and some lie hidden in the ground．They do not need sunlight to survive，and if the weather becomes too cold，they can become inactive until conditions improve．What are these？They are called fungi（菌类），and you see them almost every day．Many kinds of fungi seem disgusting，such as the green black things that appear on the food which are left too long in the refrigerator．But other kinds are not so bad．For example，the yeast that is used to make bread and mushrooms （蘑菇） are both fungi．What makes fungi different from plants and animals？An animal can move around by itself．Fungi get around too，but they don't have feet，wings，or tails．They have to wait for wind or some other outside force to move them．Plants are different from fungi because they have chlorophyll（叶绿素）．It helps them make food from the energy in sunlight．Fungi do not have chlorophyll．Some fungi are bad，while others are not．Some fungi cause diseases，such as athlete's foot，which makes feet uncomfortable．Other kinds of fungi can be used to make medicies，which have saved many lives．Fungi clean up more than wounds，though．They are the world's first recyclers．Without fungi，our world would be a mess．Since fungi cannot make their own food as plants do，they must get their food elsewhere．Many fungi get their food from dead plants．Theybreak them down and turn them into soil．The fungi get a meal，and the world gets a housecleaning．23．What does the underlined word"disgusting"most probably mean？A．strongB．unpleasantC．activeD．small24．According to the passage，．A．fungi can move everywhere by themselvesB．fungi are unable to survive in cold conditionsC．some fungi can make food from the energy in sunlight．D．some fungi are useful to humans and the environment25．Where can you most probably find this passage？A．In a social report．B．In a biology book．C．In ageography magazine．D．In a farming book．26．（6分）When was the last time you saw three men running down a forest trail（小径）in the rain wearing flipflops（拖鞋）？That's what my friend Brandon，Josh and I were doing last autumn．We were looking for a waterfall（瀑布）．We didn't have much time to get to the waterfall and back，so we were running．We were wearing flip﹣flops to prevent our shoes getting dirty．It was raining，but lightly．It kept us cool as we climbed over giant stones and through a shallow（浅的）stream．We followed red arrows（箭头）and crossed that stream several times，walking on toward the promised waterfall．Time was not on our side，howevr，and we were forced to turn around．As we started back，we looked at the shallow stream we had just crossed．Where did this rushing river come from？That was when we realized a flash flood was around!In the few minutes the water rose at a fast speed．Now there were no big stones tobe seen﹣only what looked like lumps（隆起）covered with rushing water．We had no choice but to move our way back carefully in the rushing water﹣in flip﹣flops．We had crossedthe stream not once or twice，but six times in search of a waterfall that we never even reached!With most of the crossings，we needed each other's help if we didn't want to be washed away by water．Wet all over，we felt relaxed after we made the last crossing．"My dad always told me to keep off a river when travelling in the rain．"Josh said as we hurried back down the path．"Why didn't you tell us that earlier？"I laughed．"Would it have made a difference？"came the reply．He had a point．26．Why were there no big stones to be seen in the stream when they came back？A．The big stones were moved away by someone else．B．They were runningtoo fast to notice the big stones．C．The big stones were covered with rushing water．D．The big stones were washed away by rushing water．27．Why didn't they find the waterfall in the end？A．Because they were short of time．B．Because they were wearing flip﹣flops．C．Because Josh kept warning thm not to go any further．D．Because the flood prevented them from going forward．28．We can infer（推断）from the passage that the writer and his friends ．A．were crazy about outdoor activitiesB．made full preparations before the tripC．crossed rushing water easily in the endD．had much experience in travelling in the rain．29．（6分）While it is common for restaurant owners to connect with their customers，a restaurant owner in the U．S．is taking it to a whole new level．Tim Harries gives out free hugs（拥抱）to every customer at the end of each meal．The atmosphere （气氛）at his restaurant"Tim's Place"is so positive（积极的）that customers often call it the"World's friendliest restaurant"．．"Tim's Hug"is in fact an item on the menu described as a"love"treat．Tim's hugs are doubly special because of everything he has achieved．The 26一year﹣old is probablythe only Down syndrome sufferer（唐氏综合症患者）in the U．S．to own a restaurant，but he has several other things to be proud of﹣﹣he's a skillful special Olympian，an excellent sailor，and all experienced fisherman．He was also chosen as Homecoming King and Student of the Year in high school!So when a man like Tim hugs you，it is sure to be a special and unforgettable experienceWhen Tim expressed interest in opening a restaurant，Keith，a small businessman himself，supported him．Tim hired other people to manage the place and do the cooking，and he introduced the idea of free hugs．He realized that people want to feel at home at a restaurant．That is why he included"love"as all ite on the menu．Customers can order the free hug from Tim，and even if they don't，he'll probably hug them anyway．The restaurant has been around sinc 2010，and Tim has given out over 19，000hugs in the past five years﹣﹣he keeps count using a special Hug Counter．Many customers love visiting"Tim's Place"．"I've been coming here once a week．"said Michelle Garth﹣Jones，a regular customer．"I love local restaurants，and this specil one has a story that stays with you．"29．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？A．Customers prefer to feel relaxed at a restaurant．B．Unless you order Tim's Hug，he will not hug you．C．As soon as you enter Tim's Place，you will get a warm hug．D．Michelle Garth﹣Jones loves listening to the story in the restaurant．30．Which of the following words can best describe Time Harris？A．HumorousB．CreativeC．SeriousD．Curious31．What may be the best title for this passage？A．Tim's AchievementsB．A Special ExperienceC．A Down Syndrome SuffererD．The World's Friendliest Restaurant．32．（8分）Many expressions that we use in American English come from novels．Todaywe will look at some of them from Lewis Carroll's famous novel"Alice in Wonderlan"in detail．The story is about a young girl fallin down a rabbit hole．When she finally lands，she finds herself in a strange world and meets some strange characters．The first character Alice meets is the White Rabbit，who runs past her and says some strange words．Alice chases（追赶）him，and that is where her adventures begin．In English，chasing a white rabbit means chasing an impossible clue and finding yourself in a misleading situation．Then，as she runs after the rabbit，she falls down the rabbit hole into Wonderland．To fall down the rabbit hole can mean to enter a confusing（令人困惑的）situation．However，usually we use this expression to mean we get interested in something to the point of distraction（分神）．It often happens by accident and is about something not that meaningful．Later in the story，Alice meets the March Hare and the Hatter at a crazy tea party．Hares （野兔）have long been thought to behave excitedly in March，which is their mating （交配）season．Scientifically，this may not be true．But to be mad as a March Hare means that someone is completely mad，or crazy．The expression mad as a Hatter also means to be completely crazy．Of the two，mad as a Hatter is more common．But don't tell the March Hare．Who knows how he will react（反应）！Near the end of the story，Alice meets the Queen of Hearts．A woman who is called a Queen of Hearts likes controlling others and always tries to control everything and everyone around her．32．Which of the following situations best fits the expressions to fall down a rabbit hole？A．When Tom was taking a walk in the forest，he suddenly fell over onto the ground．B．When Mary turned on the TV，she chose to watch the talk show programme as usual．C．When Jim was looking for a sport book online，he lost himself in many report on surperstars．D．When Lily was thinking about how to solve a math problem，she came up with a good idea．33．According to the passage，the expression to be mad as a March Hare ．A．describes how hares behave in MarchB．shows hares'characteristics in a scientific wayC．is used more often than the expression mad as a Hatter．D．has the same meaning as the expression mad as a Hatter34．Which character in"Alice in Wonderland"wants others to obey his or her orders in every situation？A．AliceB．The March HareC．The HatterD．The Queen of Hearts．35．The writer mainly wants to in the passage．A．introduce a famous novel and its language styleB．introduce a famous writer Lewis Carroll and his novelsC．explore some English expressions from a famous nvelD．explain why many expressions in English come from novels．四、阅读表达（共5小题：每小题5分，满分9分）阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，每个空格里只填一个单词．36．（5分）The Internet nowadays opens a wide world to people，including teenagers，but many parents worry that their children may meet with something unhealthy when searching online．In order to solve this problem，a new search engine for children called Kiddle has appeared．Search results are filtered（过滤），so only safe website are shown and descriptions are written in simple language．Searches with bad words are shut off，too．Kiddles uses the same colors as Google in its logo and a similar

Google，most results appear along with large thumbnail pictures（缩略图）to make it easier for children to find what they are looking for．For example，when searching for"meow meow"．Google produces pages for information about a drug（毒品）that has"meow meow"as its nickname（绰号），but Kiddle lists information only about cats，even with some cartoon pictures．The company explained，"Websites which appear in Kiddle search results satisfy family ﹣friendly requirements，as we filter websites with unhealthy content．"Kiddle﹣a Child﹣Friendly Search EngineCharacteristics•Only safe websites are shown．•Descriptions are

animal，right？Wrong!Many organisms（有机体）in our world are neither．Some of them float through the air，and some lie hidden in the ground．They do not need sunlight to survive，and if the weather becomes too cold，they can become inactive until conditions improve．What are these？They are called fungi（菌类），and you see them almost every day．Many kinds of fungi seem disgusting，such as the green black things that appear on the food which are left too long in the refrigerator．But other kinds are not so bad．For example，the yeast that is used to make bread and mushrooms （蘑菇） are both fungi．What makes fungi different from plants and animals？An animal can move around by itself．Fungi get around too，but they don't have feet，wings，or tails．They have to wait for wind or some other outside force to move them．Plants are different from fungi because they have chlorophyll（叶绿素）．It helps them make food from the energy in sunlight．Fungi do not have chlorophyll．Some fungi are bad，while others are not．Some fungi cause diseases，such as athlete's foot，which makes feet uncomfortable．Other kinds of fungi can be used to make medicies，which have saved many lives．Fungi clean up more than wounds，though．They are the world's first recyclers．Without fungi，our world would be a mess．Since fungi cannot make their own food as plants do，they must get their food elsewhere．Many fungi get their food from dead plants．They break them down and turn them into soil．The fungi get a meal，and the world gets a housecleaning．23．What does the underlined word"disgusting"most probably mean？ BA．strongB．unpleasantC．activeD．small24．According to the passage， D ．A．fungi can move everywhere by themselvesB．fungi are unable to survive in cold conditionsC．some fungi can make food from the energy in sunlight．D．some fungi are useful to humans and the environment25．Where can you most probably find this passage？ BA．In a social report．B．In a biology book．C．In ageography magazine．D．In a farming book．【考点】O9：日常生活类阅读．【分析】本文是介绍菌类，很多菌类看起来让人很不舒服，例如食物变质后的菌类，会引起疾病，还有一些是有益的，例如用来制作面包和蘑菇的酵母，还可以制药，菌类和植物和动物不同，菌类需要靠外力去移动．【解答】23．B．词义理解题．结合后文such as the green black things that appear on the food which are left too long in the refrigerator可知这种菌类让人感觉不舒服，故选B．24．D．推理题．根据第四段Other kinds of fungi can be used to make medicies，which have saved many lives．可知有些菌类对身体有益，结合最后Fungi clean up more than wounds，。

Here are a few examples, in order of time it takes people to learn them.Latin languages (about 600 hours)The popular Latin languages —Italian, French, Spanish and Portuguese —require about 600 hours to learn. Of these, Spanish and Italian are the easiest for English speakers to learn. They are followed by Portuguese and finally French.Latin languages share many words with English. However, those shared words look or sound similar, but have different meanings over time.Greek (1,100 hours)Modern Greek is maybe the easiest language to learn that uses a different alphabet( 字母表). It is also a language that has contributed many words to English. Indeed, the president of Greece once gave two speeches at an international meeting that included just Greek loan words(外来词) as well as the unavoidable basic English.Japanese (2, 200 hours)Counting objects in Japanese depends on whether they are long and thin (like “roads”), small and round (like “apples”), thin and flat (like “sheets of paper”), and hundreds more examples.What Japanese you speak also depends on your gender(性别). There’s a “rough” language for men and a more “ladylike” language for women, but you must understand both.Chinese (2, 200 hours)Each Chinese written word is hardly understandable when spoken between a Mandarin (普通话) speaker in Beijing and a Cantonese speaker in Guangdong. If you think that's strange, consider our number system: the symbol “2” is widely understood but it’s pronounced “two” in English and “duex” in French.23.For an English speaker, which of the following is the easiest to learn?A. Japanese.B. French.C. Greek.D. Italian.24.What can we learn from the passage?A.The same word in two languages always has the same meaning.B.The English language and the Greek language use the same alphabet.C.Objects are counted differently in Japanese according to their shapes.D A Mandarin speaker and a Cantonese speaker write Chinese differently.25.The purpose of this passage is to tell English speakers .A.how to learn some foreign languagesB.why they must learn a foreign languageC.some information on the difficulty of foreign languagesD.not to choose an Asian language to learn as it is too hardInfluenza, or flu(流感), is a type of virus. It spreads from one person to another quickly. When someone who has the flu coughs or sneezes, little droplets from their lungs ( 肺) spread out into the air. Anyone nearby can get sick. Even a person who touches something with the virus and then touches his or her mouth, eyes, or nose, can become infected(感染).The outbreak of the 1918 influenza infected about 500 million people worldwide. It killed from 20 million to 50 million people. It was first seen in Europe, the United States, and parts of Asia. It then spread quickly around the world. Many people who became sick were young, healthy adults. At the time, no treatments worked in the prevention of the spread of the killer flu. People were ordered to wear masks. Schools, theaters and other public places were closed.When the first wave(波〉in the spring of 1918 hit, it didn't seem serious. People who were infected felt the usual flu symptoms(症状), which are chills, fevers, and feeling tired. Those who got sick generally got better after several days. Not many died. However, a second, highly contagious(传染的)wave of influenza appeared in the fall of that same year. Victims died shortly after they were infected —within hours or days. Their skin turned blue and their lungs were filled with liquid(液体), making it very difficult to breathe.By the summer of 1919, the flu pandemic(大流行病) came to an end. Sick people had either got well or died. Almost 90 years later, in 2008, researchers announced they’d discovered why the 1918 flu was so deadly. The flu virus inflamed (使…恶化)the lungs, causing them to fill with liquid.Since 1918, there have been several other influenza pandemics, although none has been quite as deadly.26.What information about the 1918 flu is mentioned in the passage?A.The reason why it was so deadly.B.The reason why it ended.C.The change it caused to medical research.D.The place in which it was last seen.27.All the people that were infected with the 1918 flu .A.had blue skin that led to their deathB.had touched someone with the virusC.died as their lungs were filled with liquidD.had the virus in their bodies that made them sick28.Which of the following statements about the 1918 flu is TRUE according to the passage?A.Wearing a mask was the best way to treat it.B.A younger person had a lower risk of being infected with it.C.People expected the coming of its second wave, but couldn’t stop it.D.It was deadlier than any other influenza pandemic in modern h istory.“What’s wrong, Carina?” Collin asked. “Homesick again?”His sister nodded.“Yeah, me too.” Collin sighed(叹息).Their family had moved to the new place nearly four months ago. The new place was housed inside a huge transparent dome (透明的圆屋顶). It still didn't feel like home.“I miss my friends,” Carina said sadly. “And green grass and swimming, and everything. I even miss the sound of rain on the roof(屋顶).”“Worst of all,” Carina continued, “my birthday is in two days, and I don't think Mom and Dad are planning anything special. They're too busy.”“She's probably right,” thought Collin. Life here was very busy for sc ientists like their parents. He doubted if they had time to plan a party. And how could they anyway? Things such as balloons and birthday candles didn’t exist here. They didn't even have enough materials to make a cake.“Don’t worry.” Collin put an arm aro und Carina's shoulder.Collin walked toward the agricultural center, where his mom worked. He found her taking notes on some tall tube-like plants.“What are those?” he asked.“Bamboo plants,” said Mom. “They’re strong and grow fast. They make good building materials.”“May I have a piece?”“Sure.” Mom handed one to him and made a note on her notebook.The next day, Collin made tiny holes into the piece of bamboo and put small nails(钉子)into each hole. He poured a handful of pebbles(鹅卵石) inside and covered the open ends.Collin held the bamboo piece carefully as he hurried home. He hid it behind his back and opened the front door. To his surprise, Mom and Dad were home early from work. Mom was carrying something that looked like a cake.He looked closer and realized Mom had made a cake with dried apples and cinnamon(肉桂皮) sugar. A real treat, on the Moon.Collin handed his sister the bamboo rod. “Happy birthday!”“What is it?” Carina asked, looking at it curiously.“A rain stick,” said Collin. “Whenever you turn it over, the pebbles fall around the nails and it sounds like rain.”Carina turned the stick, and the room was filled with a sound like rain drumming on a roof.“It’s Moon Rain!” she said. “It makes me feel like I’m home.” She smiled at Collin and turned the rain stick over again.29.What may be the best title of this passage?A. Bamboo PlantsB. Moon RainC. Homesick Again!D. United Family30.What can we know from the passage?A.This passage is part of a science fiction written for scientific research.B.The family moved to the new place in order to do some sightseeing.C.Their new home was on a dry land on the earth far from their old one.D.Carina didn’t think her parents would plan anything special for her birthday.31.Which of the following can best describe Collin?A Careful and brave. B. Caring and creative.C. Generous and intellectual.D. Romantic and popular.Looking at art should be like walking in the countryside. You may not know exactly where you are, what bird is making that strange sound, or what the hill ahead of you is called, but that’s part of the fun of it. You don’t need to know these things to feel the beauty of nature.Of course, if you do know your birds, trees and local history, a walk can be more attractive. Yet such knowledge comes slowly. It is picked up through experience. A true knowledge of nature cannot just be given to you through an app on your phone. Imagine pointing your phone at the hill and getting plenty of information on screen. Would that enrich your dreamy walk or ruin(毁灭) it?Braggarts enjoy an app that allows them to show off their knowledge, for example, about baroque(巴洛克风格的) paintings. In fact, apps in museums try to provide on-screen art history at once just to encourage people to read their phones instead of looking at paintings.It is a mistaken idea that you need to be spoon-fed(灌输) amazing facts about a work of art in order to appreciate(欣赏) it. Our first experience of a work of art should be raw(自然状态的), unguided, and a bit puzzling, like following a path in the woods. Later, you might choose to do some personal research into the work. It can further increase your enjoyment and appreciation for it. Yet it is best done when you’re away from the art itself, so that even when you return, the work still feels fresh.Anyone who thinks knowing some dates and details makes you better understand a work of art is wrong. We all need to put aside our screens and our supposed knowledge when we look at art. Let the paintings flow in; let your intuitions(直觉) fly off. Art is a journey in the wilderness or it is nothing at all.32.What does the writer mainly want to say?A.Art is best with the help of apps.B.Art is best when hidden in mystery.C.Art is nothing compared with nature.D.Art is nothing when details and facts are known.33.The underlined word “braggarts” refers to(指) .A.people who like showing offB.people who like baroque paintingsC.those who are good at appreciating artD.those who are good at painting with phones34.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?A.How to appreciate a work of art.B.How to personal research into a work of art.C.How to keep your feelings about a work of art fresh.D.How to be spoon-fed amazing facts about a work of art.35.what can we infer(推断) from the passage?A.Because of apps, art will be ruined in the future.B.A good piece of art is usually made about nature.C.Research work and intuitions can both help understand art.D.Museums are not supposed to allow the use of mobile phones.四、阅读表达阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

The family moved to the new place in order to do some sightseeing．C. Their new home was on a dry land on the earth far from their old one．D. Carina didn't think her parents would plan anything special for her birthday．．（3）Which of the following can best describe Collin？________A. Careful and brave．B. Caring and creative．C. Generous and intellectual．D. Romantic and popular．15. Looking at art should be like walking in the countryside．You may not know exactly where you are, what bird is making that strange sound, or what the hill ahead of you is called, but that's part of the fun of it．You don't need to know these things to feel the beauty of nature．Of course, if you do know your birds, trees and local history, a walk can be more attractive． Yet such knowledge comes slowly． It is picked up through experience．A true knowledge of nature cannot just be given to you through an app on your phone．Imagine pointing your phone at the hill and getting plenty of information on screen． Would that enrich your dreamy walk or ruin（毁灭） it?________ enjoy an app that allows them to show off their knowledge, for example, about baroque（巴洛克风格的） paintings． In fact, apps in museums try to provide on﹣screen art history at once just to encourage people to read their phones instead of looking at paintings．It is a mistaken idea that you need to be spoon﹣fed（灌输） amazing facts about a work of art in order to appreciate（欣赏） it． Our first experience of a work of art should be raw（自然状态的）, unguided, and a bit puzzling, like following a path in the woods． Later, you might choose to do some personal research into the work． It can further increase your enjoyment and appreciation for it． Yet it is best done when you're away from the art itself, so that even when you return, the work still feels fresh．Anyone who thinks knowing some dates and details makes you better understand a work of art is wrong． We all need to put aside our screens and our supposed knowledge when we look at art． Let the paintings flow in; let your intuitions（直觉） fly off． Art is a journey in the wilderness or it is nothing at all．（1）What does the writer mainly want to say？________A. Art is best with the help of apps．B. Art is best when hidden in mystery．C. Art is nothing compared with nature．D. Art is nothing when details and facts are known．．（2）The underlined word "braggarts" refers to（指）________．A. people who like showing offB. people who like baroque paintingsC. those who are good at appreciating artD. those who are good at painting with phones．（3）What's the main idea of Paragraph 4？________A.

The game of Go was one of the four greatest artistic types in Chinese culture． It is not only a competitive event of the mind，but also a board game of entertainment．Created in China more than four thousand years ago． Go was introduced to Korea and Japan over 1， 000 years ago， and has since become a favorite activity of many people there． Today， Go still serves as a way of cultural exchange among the people in many Eastern and Western countries， as players in these countries take part in many international games every year．A game of Go has many implications（含义） for real life． It represents a square world of round pieces in black and white． There are 181 black pieces and 180 white ones in total．While the board is fixed，the pieces can be placed in millions upon millions of different ways， just as life in the real world may take many turns． The proper placementof each tiny Go piece is similar to how one might solve a difficult problem in life．Go pays much attention to peaceful competition and coexistence （共存）． In a game of Go，the players do not wipe out（消灭） each other's pieces． Instead， they simply try to win a larger share of space while allowing the other side some space． However， in chess and Chinese chess， the players try to wipe out as many of the other side's pieces as possible．The one who forces the other side's commander（主帅）into a dead corner then wins the game． Therefore， Go carries deeper cultural and philosophical connotations（哲学内涵）．Wu Qingyuan（1914﹣2014）， a modern Go talent， believed that the final purpose of the game was to try to achieve peace． Instead of fighting as enemies， the two players work together to play an excellent game．五、词汇（共4小题；每小题1分，满分4分）A）根据句子意思，用括号中所给词的正确形式填空，每空填一词.17. ﹣Ann， is this umbrella________（you） or Jack's？﹣It's mine．18.

The only thing we can do is look.You have no___11___on what you will see.However,your brain may make an assumption(猜想)out of whatever happens to appear.One day,I was taking a nap(小睡)in my office when I woke up to the____12____of a car crash.I looked out of my window.A car had just backed into a fence(围栏)and damaged(毁坏〉it.The driver got out of the car.He was short without hair on his head.I____13____him at once.To my surprise,the man tried to____14____the damage he caused.However,his efforts all failed.Once he even funnily fell onto the road when trying to pull the fence.I____15____a lot.The failure of this terrible man was brightening my whole day.About10minutes later,the man left.That,I thought,would be the____16____of his efforts.The man—that villainous(可憎的)man—was going to____17____all the mess behind for someone else to clean up.But this is the____18____of windows.They contradict(与…矛盾)your easy assumptions.The man appeared a few minutes later with some____19____.For the next hour,I watched out of my window as he kept on fixing the fence_____20_____it was extra safe,stronger than before.This man was a hero.My_____21_____assumptions,I realized,were all about myself.I wouldbe_____22_____and run away if I came across such a messy situation.My window had woken me up from a nap to teach me a lesson,a lesson that changed my whole day and even my whole life.11.A.agreement B.influence C.discovery D.impression12.A.symbol B.sight C.sound D.sign13.A.accepted B.remembered C.disliked D.greeted14.A.confirm B.avoid C.cover D.repairplained ughed C.learnt D.thought16.A.end B.fun C.problem D.lesson17.A.hide B.push C.move D.leave18.A.quality B.shame C.power D.truth19.A.friends B.tools C.medicines D.plans20.A.until B.when C.after D.since21.A.ugly B.friendly C.proper D.possible22.A.encouraged B.pleased C.scared D.relaxed三、阅读理解With so much free time on our hands during lockdown,many of us have entertained the idea of knowing more about the world.Learning a foreign language is a good choice.Here are a few examples,in order of time it takes people to learn them.Latin languages(about600hours)The popular Latin languages—Italian,French,Spanish and Portuguese—require about600hours to learn. Of these,Spanish and Italian are the easiest for English speakers to learn.They are followed by Portuguese and finally French.Latin languages share many words with English.However,those shared words look or sound similar,but have different meanings over time.Greek(1,100hours)Modern Greek is maybe the easiest language to learn that uses a different alphabet(字母表).It is also a language that has contributed many words to English.Indeed,the president of Greece once gave two speeches at an international meeting that included just Greek loan words(外来词)as well as the unavoidable basic English.Japanese(2,200hours)Counting objects in Japanese depends on whether they are long and thin(like“roads”),small and round(like “apples”),thin and flat(like“sheets of paper”),and hundreds more examples.What Japanese you speak also depends on your gender(性别).There’s a“rough”language for men and a more “ladylike”language for women,but you must understand both.Chinese(2,200hours)Each Chinese written word is hardly understandable when spoken between a Mandarin(普通话)speaker in Beijing and a Cantonese speaker in Guangdong.If you think that's strange,consider our number system:the symbol“2”is widely understood but it’s pronounced“two”in English and“duex”in French.23.For an English speaker,which of the following is the easiest to learn?A.Japanese.B.French.C.Greek.D.Italian.24.What can we learn from the passage?A.The same word in two languages always has the same meaning.B.The English language and the Greek language use the same alphabet.C.Objects are counted differently in Japanese according to their shapes.D.A Mandarin speaker and a Cantonese speaker write Chinese differently.25.The purpose of this passage is to tell English speakers__________.A.how to learn some foreign languagesB.why they must learn a foreign languageC.some information on the difficulty of foreign languagesD.not to choose an Asian language to learn as it is too hardInfluenza,or flu(流感),is a type of virus.It spreads from one person to another quickly.When someone who has the flu coughs or sneezes,little droplets from their lungs(肺)spread out into the air.Anyone nearby can get sick.Even a person who touches something with the virus and then touches his or her mouth,eyes,or nose,can become infected(感染).The outbreak of the1918influenza infected about500million people worldwide.It killed from20million to 50million people.It was first seen in Europe,the United States,and parts of Asia.It then spread quickly around the world.Many people who became sick were young,healthy adults.At the time,no treatments worked in the prevention of the spread of the killer flu.People were ordered to wear masks.Schools,theaters and other public places were closed.When the first wave(波〉in the spring of1918hit,it didn't seem serious.People who were infected felt the usual flu symptoms(症状),which are chills,fevers,and feeling tired.Those who got sick generally got better after several days.Not many died.However,a second,highly contagious(传染的)wave of influenza appeared in the fall of that same year.Victims died shortly after they were infected—within hours or days.Their skin turned blue and their lungs were filled with liquid(液体),making it very difficult to breathe.By the summer of1919,the flu pandemic(大流行病)came to an end.Sick people had either got well or died. Almost90years later,in2008,researchers announced they’d discovered why the1918flu was so deadly.The flu virus inflamed(使…恶化)the lungs,causing them to fill with liquid.Since1918,there have been several other influenza pandemics,although none has been quite as deadly.26.What information about the1918flu is mentioned in the passage?A.The reason why it was so deadly.B.The reason why it ended.C.The change it caused to medical research.D.The place in which it was last seen.27.All the people that were infected with the1918flu___________.A.had blue skin that led to their deathB.had touched someone with the virusC.died as their lungs were filled with liquidD.had the virus in their bodies that made them sick28.Which of the following statements about the1918flu is TRUE according to the passage?A.Wearing a mask was the best way to treat it.B.A younger person had a lower risk of being infected with it.C.People expected the coming of its second wave,but couldn’t stop it.D.It was deadlier than any other influenza pandemic in modern history.“What’s wrong,Carina?”Collin asked.“Homesick again?”His sister nodded.“Yeah,me too.”Collin sighed(叹息).Their family had moved to the new place nearly four months ago.The new place was housed inside a huge transparent dome(透明的圆屋顶).It still didn't feel like home.“I miss my friends,”Carina said sadly.“And green grass and swimming,and everything.I even miss the sound of rain on the roof(屋顶).”“Worst of all,”Carina continued,“my birthday is in two days,and I don't think Mom and Dad are planning anything special.They're too busy.”“She's probably right,”thought Collin.Life here was very busy for scientists like their parents.He doubted if they had time to plan a party.And how could they anyway?Things such as balloons and birthday candles didn’t exist here.They didn't even have enough materials to make a cake.“Don’t worry.”Collin put an arm around Carina's shoulder.Collin walked toward the agricultural center,where his mom worked.He found her taking notes on some tall tube-like plants.“What are those?”he asked.“Bamboo plants,”said Mom.“They’re strong and grow fast.They make good building materials.”“May I have a piece?”“Sure.”Mom handed one to him and made a note on her notebook.The next day,Collin made tiny holes into the piece of bamboo and put small nails(钉子)into each hole.He poured a handful of pebbles(鹅卵石)inside and covered the open ends.Collin held the bamboo piece carefully as he hurried home.He hid it behind his back and opened the front door.To his surprise,Mom and Dad were home early from work.Mom was carrying something that looked like a cake.He looked closer and realized Mom had made a cake with dried apples and cinnamon(肉桂皮)sugar.A real treat,on the Moon.Collin handed his sister the bamboo rod.“Happy birthday!”“What is it?”Carina asked,looking at it curiously.“A rain stick,”said Collin.“Whenever you turn it over,the pebbles fall around the nails and it sounds like rain.”Carina turned the stick,and the room was filled with a sound like rain drumming on a roof.“It’s Moon Rain!”she said.“It makes me feel like I’m home.”She smiled at Collin and turned the rain stick over again.29.What may be the best title of this passage?A.Bamboo PlantsB.Moon RainC.Homesick Again!D.United Family30.What can we know from the passage?A.This passage is part of a science fiction written for scientific research.B.The family moved to the new place in order to do some sightseeing.C.Their new home was on a dry land on the earth far from their old one.D.Carina didn’t think her parents would plan anything special for her birthday.31.Which of the following can best describe Collin?A.Careful and brave.B.Caring and creative.C.Generous and intellectual.D.Romantic and popular.Looking at art should be like walking in the countryside.You may not know exactly where you are,what bird is making that strange sound,or what the hill ahead of you is called,but that’s part of the fun of it.You don’t need to know these things to feel the beauty of nature.Of course,if you do know your birds,trees and local history,a walk can be more attractive.Yet such knowledge comes slowly.It is picked up through experience.A true knowledge of nature cannot just be given to you through an app on your phone.Imagine pointing your phone at the hill and getting plenty of information on screen.Would that enrich your dreamy walk or ruin(毁灭)it?Braggarts enjoy an app that allows them to show off their knowledge,for example,about baroque(巴洛克风格的)paintings.In fact,apps in museums try to provide on-screen art history at once just to encourage people to read their phones instead of looking at paintings.It is a mistaken idea that you need to be spoon-fed(灌输)amazing facts about a work of art in order to appreciate(欣赏)it.Our first experience of a work of art should be raw(自然状态的),unguided,and a bit puzzling, like following a path in the ter,you might choose to do some personal research into the work.It can further increase your enjoyment and appreciation for it.Yet it is best done when you’re away from the art itself,so that even when you return,the work still feels fresh.Anyone who thinks knowing some dates and details makes you better understand a work of art is wrong.We all need to put aside our screens and our supposed knowledge when we look at art.Let the paintings flow in;let your intuitions(直觉)fly off.Art is a journey in the wilderness or it is nothing at all.32.What does the writer mainly want to say?A.Art is best with the help of apps.B.Art is best when hidden in

on our hands during lockdown，many of us have entertained the idea of knowing more about the world．Learning a foreign language is a good choice．Here are a few examples，in order of time it takes people to learn them．Latin languages （about 600 hours）The popular Latin languages ﹣Italian，French，Spanish and Portuguese ﹣require about 600 hours to learn．Of these，Spanish and Italian are the easiest for English speakers to learn．They are followed by Portuguese and finally French．Latin languages share many words with English．However，those shared words look or sound similar，but have different meanings over time．Greek （1，100 hours）Modern Greek is maybe the easiest language to learn that uses a different alphabet（字母表）．It is also a language that has contributed many words to English．Indeed，the president of Greece once gave two speeches at an international meeting that included just Greek loan words（外来词）as well as the unavoidable basic English．Japanese （2，200 hours）Counting objects in Japanese depends on whether they are long and thin （like "roads"），small and round （like "apples"），thin and flat （like "sheets of paper"），and hundreds more examples．What Japanese you speak also depends on your gender（性别）．There's a "rough" language for men and a more "ladylike" language for women，but you must understand both．Chinese （2，200 hours）Each Chinese written word is hardly understandable when spoken between a Mandarin （普通话）speaker in Beijing and a Cantonese speaker in Guangdong．If you think that's strange，consider our number system：the symbol "2" is widely understood but it's pronounced "two" in English and "duex" in French．（1）For an English speaker，which of the following is the easiest to learn？DA．Japanese．B．French．C．Greek．D．Italian．（2）What can we learn from the passage？CA．The same word in two languages always has the same meaning．B．The English language and the Greek language use the same alphabet．C．Objects are counted differently in Japanese according to their shapes．D．A Mandarin speaker and a Cantonese speaker write Chinese differently．（3）The purpose of this passage is to tell English speakers C．A．how to learn some foreign languagesB．why they must learn a foreign languageC．some information on the difficulty of foreign languages D．not to choose an Asian language to learn as it is too hard解析：本文讲述了学习一门外语是一个不错的选择．以下是几个例子，按照人们学习这些语言的时间顺序排列．参考答案：（1）D 细节理解题．根据"拉丁语"部分：Spanish and Italian are the easiest for English speakers to learn．西班牙语和意大利语是讲英语的人最容易学的．结合选项可知，对于一个说英语的人来说，意大利语最容易学．故选D．（2）C 细节推测题．根据"日语"部分：Counting objects in Japanese depends on whether they are long and thin （like "roads"），small and round （like "apples"），thin and flat （like "sheets of paper"），日文中计算物体的数量取决于它们是长而细（像"路"），小而圆（像"苹果"），薄而平（像"纸"）．可以推测出，在日语中，物体根据形状的不同而计数．故选C．（3）C 推理判断题．根据首段Learning a foreign language is a good choice．Here are a few examples，in order of time it takes people to learn them．学习一门外语是一个不错的选择．以下是几个例子，按照人们学习这些语言的时间顺序排列．结合全文可以推测出，这篇文章的目的是告诉说英语的人关于外语难度的一些信息．故选C．点拨：先浏览所给的问题以及选择项，然后带着问题在通读原文的基础上快速地找到答案，然后再回过头来检查一遍，确保万无一失13．（6分）Influenza，or flu（流感），is a type of virus．It spreads from one person to another quickly．When someone who has the flu coughs or sneezes，little droplets from their lungs （肺）spread out into the air．Anyone nearby can get sick．Even aperson who touches something with the virus and then touches his or her mouth，eyes，or nose，can become infected（感染）．The outbreak of the 1918 influenza infected about 500 million people worldwide．It killed from 20 million to 50 million people．It was first seen in Europe，the United States，and parts of Asia．It then spread quickly around the world．Many people who became sick were young，healthy adults．At the time，no treatments worked in the prevention of the spread of the killer flu．People were ordered to wear masks．Schools，theaters and other public places were closed．When the first wave（波＞in the spring of 1918 hit，it didn't seem serious．People who were infected felt the usual flu symptoms（症状），which are chills，fevers，and feeling tired．Those who got sick generally got better after several days．Not many died．However，a second，highly contagious （传染的）wave of influenza appeared in the fall of that same year．Victims died shortly after they were infected ﹣within hours or days．Their skin turned blue and their lungs were filled with liquid（液体），making it very difficult to breathe．By the summer of 1919，the flu pandemic（大流行病）came to an end．Sick people had either got well or died．Almost 90 years later，in 2008，researchers announced they'd discoveredwhy the 1918 flu was so deadly．The flu virus inflamed （使…恶化）the lungs，causing them to fill with liquid．Since 1918，there have been several other influenza pandemics，although none has been quite as deadly．（1）What information about the 1918 flu is mentioned in the passage？AA．The reason why it was so deadly．B．The reason why it ended．C．The change it caused to medical research．D．The place in which it was last seen．（2）All the people that were infected with the 1918 flu D．A．had blue skin that led to their deathB．had touched someone with the virusC．died as their lungs were filled with liquidD．had the virus in their bodies that made them sick（3）Which of the following statements about the 1918 flu is TRUE according to the passage？DA．Wearing a mask was the best way to treat it．B．A younger person had a lower risk of being infccted with it．C．People expected the coming of its second wave，but couldn't stop it．D．It was deadlier than any other influenza pandemic in modern history．解析：本文主要讲了流感的传播方式以及1918年全世界流感爆发的详细情况．参考答案：细节理解题．（1）A．题目问在文中有关1918年流感提到了什么信息，根据第四段Almost 90 years later，in 2008，researchers announced they'd discovered why the 1918 flu was so deadly．可知文中提到了1918年流感致命的原因，故选A．（2）D．题目意为感染1918流感的所有人_____，根据第四段By the summer of 1919，the flu pandemic（大流行病）came to an end．Sick people had either got well or died．Almost 90 years later，in 2008，researchers announced they'd discovered why the 1918 flu was so deadly．The flu virus inflamed （使…恶化）the lungs，causing them to fill with liquid．可知感染了这种病毒的人使得肺部恶化，因此判断得1918年流感的人都感染了这个流感病毒．故选D．（3）D．题目问根据文章有关1918年流感的陈述哪一项是正确的，根据最后一段Since 1918，there have been several other influenza pandemics，although none has been quite as deadly．可知自从1918年以来也出现过一些其他的流感，但是都没有这次致命，因此判断自从1918年以来，即现代历史中它比其他任何一种流感都要致命，故选D．点拨：通读全文，理解文章大意，阅读题目后返回原文阅读并找出与题目相对应的内容，仔细核对，选择符合原文原意的答案，完成后再次阅读并检查．14．（6分）"What's wrong，Carina？" Collin asked．"Homesick again？"His sister nodded．"Yeah，me too．" Collin sighed（叹息）．Their family had moved to the new place nearly four months ago．The new place was housed inside a huge transparent dome （透明的圆屋顶）．It still didn't feel like home．"I miss my friends，" Carina said sadly．"And green grass and swimming，and everything．I even miss the sound of rain on the roof（屋顶）．""Worst of all，" Carina continued，"my birthday is in two days，and I don't think Mom and Dad are planning anything special．They're too busy．""She's probably right，" thought Collin．Life here was very busy for scientists like their parents．He doubted if they had time to plan a party．And how could they anyway？Things such as balloons and birthday candles didn't exist here．They didn't even have enough materials to make a cake．"Don't worry．" Collin put an arm around Carina's shoulder．Collin walked toward the agricultural center，where his mom worked．He found her taking notes on some tall tube﹣like plants．"What are those？" he asked．"Bamboo plants，" said Mom．"They're strong and grow fast．They make good building materials．""May I have a piece？""Sure．" Mom handed one to him and made a note on her notebook．The next day，Collin made tiny holes into the piece of bamboo and put small nails（钉子）into each hole．He poured a handful of pebbles（鹅卵石）inside and covered the open ends．Collin held the bamboo piece carefully as he hurried home．He hid it behind his back and opened the front door．To his surprise，Mom and Dad were home early from work．Mom was carrying something that looked like a cake．He looked closer and realized Mom had made a cake with dried apples and cinnamon（肉桂皮）sugar．A real treat，on the Moon．Collin handed his sister the bamboo rod．"Happy birthday!""What is it？" Carina asked，looking at it curiously．"A rain stick，" said Collin．"Whenever you turn it over，the pebbles fall around the nails and it sounds like rain．"Carina turned the stick，and the room was filled with a sound like rain drumming on a roof．"It's Moon Rain!" she said．"It makes me feel like I'm home．" She smiled at Collin and turned the rain stick over again．（1）What may be the best title of this passage？B A．Bamboo PlantsB．Moon RainC．Homesick Again!D．United Family（2）What can we know from the passage？DA．This passage is part of a science fiction written for scientific research．B．The family moved to the new place in order to do some sightseeing．C．Their new

home．" She smiled at Collin and turned the rain stick over again"是月雨!"她说．"这让我有家的感觉．"她对科林笑了笑，又把雨棍翻了一遍，结合文章内容，可知文章主要讲了Carina想家，Collin弄了一场月亮雨缓解她想家的情绪，B月亮雨，符合题意，故答案为：B．（2）D 细节理解题．根据"my birthday is in two days，and I don't think Mom and Dad are planning anything special．They're too busy．再过两天就是我的生日了，我想爸爸妈妈并没有什么特别的计划．他们太忙了，可知卡琳娜认为她的父母不会为她的生日安排任何特别的事情，故答案为：D．（3）B 细节归纳题．根据"A rain stick，" said Collin．"Whenever you turn it over，the pebbles fall around the nails and it sounds like rain，结合文章内容，可知Collin因为关心妹妹，为妹妹制作了一场月球雨，可见他很关心妹妹，而且很有创造力，故答案为：B．点拨：阅读理解题通常从细节，文章主旨，推测词组大意几个方面考查学生对文章的理解，做题时注意找到文章出处，做到有理有据．15．（8分）Looking at art should be like walking in the countryside．You may not know exactly where you are，what bird is making that strange sound，or what the hill ahead of you is called，but that's part of the fun of it．You don't need to know these things to feel the beauty of nature．Of course，if you do know your birds，trees and local history，a walk can be more attractive．Yet such knowledge comes slowly．It is picked up through experience．A true knowledge of nature cannot just be given to you through an app on your phone．Imagine pointing your phone at the hill and getting plenty of information on screen．Would that enrich your dreamy walk or ruin（毁灭）it？Braggarts enjoy an app that allows them to show off their knowledge，for example，about baroque（巴洛克风格的）paintings．In fact，apps in museums try to provide on﹣screen art history at once just to encourage people to read their phones instead of looking at paintings．It is a mistaken idea that you need to be spoon﹣fed（灌输）amazing facts about a work of art in order to appreciate（欣赏）it．Our first experience of a work of art should be raw（自然状态的），unguided，and a bit puzzling，like following a path in the woods．Later，you might choose to do some personal research into the work．It can further increase your enjoyment and appreciation for it．Yet it is best done when you're away from the art itself，so that even when you return，the work still feels fresh．Anyone who thinks knowing some dates and details makes you better understand a work of art is wrong．We all need to put aside our screens and our supposed knowledge when we look at art．Let the paintings flow in；let your intuitions（直觉）fly off．Art is a journey in the wilderness or it is nothing at all．（1）What does the writer mainly want to say？BA．Art is best with the help of apps．B．Art is best when hidden in mystery．C．Art is nothing compared with nature．D．Art is nothing when details and facts are known．（2）The underlined word "braggarts" refers to（指）A．A．people who like showing offB．people who like baroque paintingsC．those who are good at appreciating artD．those who are good at painting with phones（3）What's the main idea of Paragraph 4？AA．How to appreciate a work of art．B．How to personal research into a work of art．C．How to keep your feelings about a work of art fresh．D．How to be spoon﹣fed amazing facts about a work of art．（4）what can we infer（推断）from the passage？C A．Because of apps，art will be ruined in the future．B．A good piece of art is usually made about nature．C．Research work and intuitions can both help understand art．D．Museums are not supposed to allow the use of mobile phones．解析：文章主要讲了如何去欣赏艺术．参考答案：（1）B 内容理解题．根据段落4 Our first experience of a work of art should be raw，unguided，and a bit puzzling，like following a path in the woods．Later，you might choose to do some personal research into the work．我们对一件艺术品的第一次体验应该是原始的、没有引导的、有点令人困惑的，就像在树林里走小路一样，结合文章内容，可知作者认为隐藏在神秘之中的艺术是最好的，故答案为：B．（2）A 词语理解题．根据段落3 allows them to show off their knowledge可以让他们炫耀自已知识的应用，可知此处是讲爱吹牛的人喜欢一款可以让他们炫耀自已知识的应用，Braggarts指代爱炫耀的人，故答案为：A．（3）A 段落理解题．根据段落4 It is a mistaken idea that youneed to be spoon﹣fed amazing facts about a work of art in order to appreciate（欣赏）it．Our first experience of a work of art should be raw，unguided，and a bit puzzling如果你认为要想欣赏一件艺术品，就得让别人给你灌输有关它的惊人事实，这是一种错误的想法．我们对一件艺术品的第一次体验应该是原始的、没有引导的、有点令人困惑的，结合本段内容，可知第4段主要讲了如何去欣赏一件艺术品，故答案为：A．（4）C 内容推断题．根据段落4 Later，you might choose to do some personal research into the work．It can further increase your enjoyment and appreciation for it，结合全文内容，可知研究工作和直觉都有助于理解艺术，故答案为：C．点拨：阅读理解题通常从细节，文章主旨，推测词组大意几个方面考查学生对文章的理解，做题时注意找到文章出处，做到有理有据．四、阅读表达（共1小题；每小题5分，满分5分）阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词．16．（5分）The game of Go was one of the four greatest artistic types in Chinese culture．It is not only a competitive event of the mind，but also a board game of entertainment．Created in China more than four thousand years ago．Go was introduced to Korea and Japan over 1，000 years ago，and has since become a favorite activity of many people there．Today，Go still serves as a way of cultural exchange among the people inmany Eastern and Western countries，as players in these countries take part in many international games every year．A game of Go has many implications（含义）for real life．It represents a square world of round pieces in black and white．There are 181 black pieces and 180 white ones in total．While the board is fixed，the pieces can be placed in millions upon millions of different ways，just as life in the real world may take many turns．The proper placement of each tiny Go piece is similar to how one might solve a difficult problem in life．Go pays much attention to peaceful competition and coexistence （共存）．In a game of Go，the players do not wipe out （消灭）each other's pieces．Instead，they simply try to win a larger share of space while allowing the other side some space．However，in chess and Chinese chess，the players try to wipe out as many of the other side's pieces as possible．The one who forces the other side's commander（主帅）into a dead corner then wins the game．Therefore，Go carries deeper cultural and philosophical connotations（哲学内涵）．Wu Qingyuan（1914﹣2014），a modern Go talent，believed that the final purpose of the game was to try to achieve peace．Instead of fighting as enemies，the two players work together to play an excellent game．Title：A game of wisdom and peaceMain Parts DetailedInformation Introduction The game ofGo is knownas one ofChinesegreatestartistictypes．It is acompetitionof the（1）mind，anda game

Thirty years later, a young man interviewed survivors from the conference, trying to uncover the truth about what happened and its consequences. This novel, by a well-known Argentine writer, explores art, crime and politics.When Breath Becomes Air, by Paul KalanithiAt thirty-six, Paul Kalanithi was diagnosed (诊断) with stage IV lung cancer. One day he was a doctor treating the dying, and the next he was a patient. This autobiography finds hope and beauty in the face of death as Kalanithi attempts to answer the question “What makes a life worth living?”.To Killa Mockingbird, by Harper LeeSet in a smallAlabamatown in the 1930s, the story focuses on honest, highly respected lawyer Atticus Finch who puts his career on the line when he agrees to represent Tom Robinson, a black man accused of committing a crime.Nobody Will Tell You This But Me: A true (as told to me) storyby Bess KalbBess Kalb saved every voicemail from her grandmother Bobby Bell who died at ninety. In this book, Bobby is speaking to Bess once more, in a voice as loving as it ever was in life and brings us several generations of brave women. They include Bobby’s mother, who traveled alone fromBelarustoAmericato survive, and Bess’s mother, who always fought against convention.1.What type of book is the first novel?A.Sci-fi.B.Biography.C.Detective books.D.History books.2.Which book explores life and death?A.To Kill a MockingbirdB.When Breath Becomes AirC.Don’t Shed Your Tears for Anyone Who Lives on These StreetsD.Nobody Will Tell You This But Me: A true (as told to me) story3.Who is the main character in the last novel?A.Bobby Bell.B.Bess Kalb.C.Bess’s mother.D.Bobby’s mother.BUnderstanding the link between a clean environment and human life is not a new concept. In fact, it was noticed as early as ancient Rome. Today we see how green living has infiluenced our everyday lives. There is a growing community of people who embrace a zero waste lifestyle and make changes to the way they live to reduce their carbon footprint.Living a zero waste lifestyle means doing one’s best to achieve the aim of not sending anything to a landfill. People who adopt this lifestyle ultimately cut down on their waste by reducing what they need and want. They reuse what they own, sending few things to be recycled.Many people who adopt the zero waste lifestyle claim to be frustrated by the many harmful chemical substances found in beauty and cleaning products. They also find the uses of disposable items and excessive packaging. For example, how many times have we had to peel away layers of plastic wrap and cardboard before finally taking out the item which we had bought? Instead of buying pre-packed food and goods, those who identify with the zero waste philosophy tend to shop in stores that allow them to make purchases and bring their own cloth bags and glass jars to store their purchases.Many people may have the misconception that it is easier to live a zero waste lifestyle in the West. Nevertheless, Malaysian environmental journalist, Ms. Aurora Tin, has proven that a zero waste lifestyle is possible even in the Asian context. Instead of going to the supermarket to buy pre-packaged foods, Ms. Tin now visits the wet market and brings her own bags for vegetables. She has even stopped using store-bought toothpaste and makes her own toothpaste from coconut oil and baking soda. This lifestyle may be too big a change for the average person, but we could follow her suit to make gradual changes to our own lives.4. Which of the following is a zero waste lifestyle?A. Bringing a resuable container to take away food.B. Choosing appliances that cost less money.C. Turning off a device to stop using power.D. Classifying the garbage before throwing it away.5. What may disappoint a person who adopts a zero waste lifestyle?A. Recycable carboard.B. Excessive packaging.C. Glass jars to store purchases.D. Natural substances in cleaning products.6. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. How do people live a zero waste lifestyle.B. Why Ms. Tin chooses to live a zero waste lifestyle..C. We can also practice a zero waste lifestyle in Asia.D. It is easy to live a zero waste lifestyle in the West.7. What is the best title of the passage?A. Living a zero waste lifestyle.B. Going green ismore than a fashion.C. A zero waste lifetyle is easy to achieve.D. Making environmentally-conscious decisions.CContrary to the long-held belief that plants in the natural world are always in competition, new research has found that in severe environments adult plants help smaller ones and grow well as a result.The research, led by Dr Rocio, studied adult and seedling (幼苗)plants in the ecological desert in the south-east of Spain. Dr Rocio said, “If you're a seedling in a poor land — the top of a mountain or a sand hill, for example-and you’re lucky enough to end up underneath a big plant, your chances of survival are certainly better than if you landed somewhere on your own. What we have found, which was surprising, is an established large plant, called a ‘nurse’, protects a seedling; it also produces more flowers than the same plants of similar large size growing on their own.”Other benefits of nurse-seedling partnerships include that more variety of plants growing together can have a positive effect on the environment. For example, vegetation areas with nurse plants with more flowers might be able to attract higher numbers of pollinators(传粉者)in an area, in turn supporting insect and soil life and even provide a greater range of different fruit types for birds and other animals.“The biggest winner for this system of nursing a plant is biodiversity(生物多样性),” Dr Rocio said. “The more biodiversean area, the greater number of species of plants, insect life, mammals and birds, and the better the chances of long-term healthy functioning of the environment and ecosystems. ” This system is win-win for adult and seedling plants in unfavorable environments.The research is of value to those who manage and protect plants in tough environments. Most home gardeners and farmers plan to ensure their soil and conditions are the best they can be for plant growth, but the findings might be of value to those who garden in bare places.8. What is a common understanding of plants?A. They can help each other.B. They can survive ill conditions.C. They compete with each other.D. They grow well on their own.9. What will happen to seedling plants if they grow under adult plants?A. They will produce more flowers.B. They will die owing to competition.C. They will make adult plants larger.D. They will get support from adult plants.10. What is the effect of the nurse-seedling partnership?A. It leads to unfavorable environments.B. It produces long-term healthy chances.C. It attracts higher and larger pollinators.D It provides a more variety of plant types.11. Who will benefit from the new research?A. People studying organic farming.B. People protecting plants on sand hills.C. People wanting to change biodiversity.D. People keeping more animals on the farm.DThe prevalence of melanoma (黑素瘤) has been rapidly rising around the world for nearly a century. While some of the increase may be due to better detection, researchers also believe it’s because we’re spending more time outdoors in the sun, vacationing to warmer climates during the winter and using tanning beds. That rise is concerning, since melanoma is the most dangerous kind of skin cancer.Most of us know to cover up and apply sunscreen on hot, sunny days, but when fall arrives, we tend to drop those habits. Experts warn that’s a mistake. Though there’s less need for sun protection after summer ends, exposure to UV rays still adds up.What precautions you should take to defend against melanoma during the cooler months depends on where you are in the world. That’s because the further away you are from the equator, the more UV rays weaken in the winter. “In southern England or Canada, the daily dose of UVA on a clear summer day is 6.5 times higher than on a clear winter day,” says Professor Brian Diffey of the British Association of Dermatologists. “People in those countries typically receive only about 5% of their annual UV exposure in the winter months.”But no matter where you are, even during colder, lower risk months, it’s a mistake to put your sun-protection habits on ice. “It’s important to wear sun-screen when there is a lot of glare from the snow,” says Victoria Mar, director of the Victorian Melanoma Service at Alfred Hospital in Melbourne, Australia.Finally, you should monitor your moles(痣). “Early detection of melanoma is vital for successful treatment,” says Diffey. If it’s caught before it spreads to other parts of the body, the patient will have 99 % of chance to survive for five years. If it’s caught late, that can drop to 25%. Warning signs are a mole that’s changing size, shape or colour, or one that’s asymmetrical — sometimes referred to as “ugly duckling” moles. If you have concerns, talk to your doctor.12. What’s the main cause of the rise ofmelanoma?A. The climate change.B. Better detection.C. More exposure to the sun.D. The increase ofskin cancer.13.What’s a mistake according to experts?A. Applying sunscreen in summer.B. Wearing sun-screen when there is snow.C. Using sunscreen during lower risk months.D. Dropping sun-protection habits in winter.14. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Prevention is better than cure.B. Health is better than wealth.C. A disease known is half cured.D. When the sun comes in, the doctor comes out.15. What is the best title of the text?A. Detect Melanoma.B. Beware Winter Rays.C. Monitor Your Moles.D. Spend Less Time Outdoors.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

them float through the air，and some lie hidden in the ground．They do not need sunlight to survive，and if the weather becomes too cold，they can become inactive until conditions improve．What are these？They are called fungi（菌类），and you see them almost every day．Many kinds of fungi seem disgusting，such as the green black things that appear on the food which are left too long in the refrigerator．But other kinds are not so bad．For example，the yeast that is used to make bread and mushrooms （蘑菇） are both fungi．What makes fungi different from plants and animals？An animal can move around by itself．Fungi get around too，but they don't have feet，wings，or tails．They have to wait for wind or some other outside force to move them．Plants are different from fungi because they have chlorophyll（叶绿素）．It helps them make food from the energy in sunlight．Fungi do not have chlorophyll．Some fungi are bad，while others are not．Some fungi cause diseases，such as athlete's foot，which makes feet uncomfortable．Other kinds of fungi can be used to make medicies，which have saved many lives．Fungi clean up more than wounds，though．They are the world's first recyclers．Without fungi，our world would be a mess．Since fungi cannot make their own food as plants do，they must get their food elsewhere．Many fungi get their food from dead plants．Theybreak them down and turn them into soil．The fungi get a meal，and the world gets a housecleaning．23．What does the underlined word"disgusting"most probably mean？A．strongB．unpleasantC．activeD．small24．According to the passage，．A．fungi can move everywhere by themselvesB．fungi are unable to survive in cold conditionsC．some fungi can make food from the energy in sunlight．D．some fungi are useful to humans and the environment25．Where can you most probably find this passage？A．In a social report．B．In a biology book．C．In ageography magazine．D．In a farming book．26．（6分）When was the last time you saw three men running down a forest trail（小径）in the rain wearing flipflops（拖鞋）？That's what my friend Brandon，Josh and I were doing last autumn．We were looking for a waterfall（瀑布）．We didn't have much time to get to the waterfall and back，so we were running．We were wearing flip﹣flops to prevent our shoes getting dirty．It was raining，but lightly．It kept us cool as we climbed over giant stones and through a shallow（浅的）stream．We followed red arrows（箭头）and crossed that stream several times，walking on toward the promised waterfall．Time was not on our side，howevr，and we were forced to turn around．As we started back，we looked at the shallow stream we had just crossed．Where did this rushing river come from？That was when we realized a flash flood was around!In the few minutes the water rose at a fast speed．Now there were no big stones tobe seen﹣only what looked like lumps（隆起）covered with rushing water．We had no choice but to move our way back carefully in the rushing water﹣in flip﹣flops．We had crossedthe stream not once or twice，but six times in search of a waterfall that we never even reached!With most of the crossings，we needed each other's help if we didn't want to be washed away by water．Wet all over，we felt relaxed after we made the last crossing．"My dad always told me to keep off a river when travelling in the rain．"Josh said as we hurried back down the path．"Why didn't you tell us that earlier？"I laughed．"Would it have made a difference？"came the reply．He had a point．26．Why were there no big stones to be seen in the stream when they came back？A．The big stones were moved away by someone else．B．They were runningtoo fast to notice the big stones．C．The big stones were covered with rushing water．D．The big stones were washed away by rushing water．27．Why didn't they find the waterfall in the end？A．Because they were short of time．B．Because they were wearing flip﹣flops．C．Because Josh kept warning thm not to go any further．D．Because the flood prevented them from going forward．28．We can infer（推断）from the passage that the writer and his friends ．A．were crazy about outdoor activitiesB．made full preparations before the tripC．crossed rushing water easily in the endD．had much experience in travelling in the rain．29．（6分）While it is common for restaurant owners to connect with their customers，a restaurant owner in the U．S．is taking it to a whole new level．Tim Harries gives out free hugs（拥抱）to every customer at the end of each meal．The atmosphere （气氛）at his restaurant"Tim's Place"is so positive（积极的）that customers often call it the"World's friendliest restaurant"．．"Tim's Hug"is in fact an item on the menu described as a"love"treat．Tim's hugs are doubly special because of everything he has achieved．The 26一year﹣old is probablythe only Down syndrome sufferer（唐氏综合症患者）in the U．S．to own a restaurant，but he has several other things to be proud of﹣﹣he's a skillful special Olympian，an excellent sailor，and all experienced fisherman．He was also chosen as Homecoming King and Student of the Year in high school!So when a man like Tim hugs you，it is sure to be a special and unforgettable experienceWhen Tim expressed interest in opening a restaurant，Keith，a small businessman himself，supported him．Tim hired other people to manage the place and do the cooking，and he introduced the idea of free hugs．He realized that people want to feel at home at a restaurant．That is why he included"love"as all ite on the menu．Customers can order the free hug from Tim，and even if they don't，he'll probably hug them anyway．The restaurant has been around sinc 2010，and Tim has given out over 19，000hugs in the past five years﹣﹣he keeps count using a special Hug Counter．Many customers love visiting"Tim's Place"．"I've been coming here once a week．"said Michelle Garth﹣Jones，a regular customer．"I love local restaurants，and this specil one has a story that stays with you．"29．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？A．Customers prefer to feel relaxed at a restaurant．B．Unless you order Tim's Hug，he will not hug you．C．As soon as you enter Tim's Place，you will get a warm hug．D．Michelle Garth﹣Jones loves listening to the story in the restaurant．30．Which of the following words can best describe Time Harris？A．HumorousB．CreativeC．SeriousD．Curious31．What may be the best title for this passage？A．Tim's AchievementsB．A Special ExperienceC．A Down Syndrome SuffererD．The World's Friendliest Restaurant．32．（8分）Many expressions that we use in American English come from novels．Todaywe will look at some of them from Lewis Carroll's famous novel"Alice in Wonderlan"in detail．The story is about a young girl fallin down a rabbit hole．When she finally lands，she finds herself in a strange world and meets some strange characters．The first character Alice meets is the White Rabbit，who runs past her and says some strange words．Alice chases（追赶）him，and that is where her adventures begin．In English，chasing a white rabbit means chasing an impossible clue and finding yourself in a misleading situation．Then，as she runs after the rabbit，she falls down the rabbit hole into Wonderland．To fall down the rabbit hole can mean to enter a confusing（令人困惑的）situation．However，usually we use this expression to mean we get interested in something to the point of distraction（分神）．It often happens by accident and is about something not that meaningful．Later in the story，Alice meets the March Hare and the Hatter at a crazy tea party．Hares （野兔）have long been thought to behave excitedly in March，which is their mating （交配）season．Scientifically，this may not be true．But to be mad as a March Hare means that someone is completely mad，or crazy．The expression mad as a Hatter also means to be completely crazy．Of the two，mad as a Hatter is more common．But don't tell the March Hare．Who knows how he will react（反应）！Near the end of the story，Alice meets the Queen of Hearts．A woman who is called a Queen of Hearts likes controlling others and always tries to control everything and everyone around her．32．Which of the following situations best fits the expressions to fall down a rabbit hole？A．When Tom was taking a walk in the forest，he suddenly fell over onto the ground．B．When Mary turned on the TV，she chose to watch the talk show programme as usual．C．When Jim was looking for a sport book online，he lost himself in many report on surperstars．D．When Lily was thinking about how to solve a math problem，she came up with a good idea．33．According to the passage，the expression to be mad as a March Hare ．A．describes how hares behave in MarchB．shows hares'characteristics in a scientific wayC．is used more often than the expression mad as a Hatter．D．has the same meaning as the expression mad as a Hatter34．Which character in"Alice in Wonderland"wants others to obey his or her orders in every situation？A．AliceB．The March HareC．The HatterD．The Queen of Hearts．35．The writer mainly wants to in the passage．A．introduce a famous novel and its language styleB．introduce a famous writer Lewis Carroll and his novelsC．explore some English expressions from a famous nvelD．explain why many expressions in English come from novels．四、阅读表达（共5小题：每小题5分，满分9分）阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，每个空格里只填一个单词．36．（5分）The Internet nowadays opens a wide world to people，including teenagers，but many parents worry

You may never catch them，but if you follow them，they will lead you to success. Yan Ning is such a dream follower.Yan is a rising star in the science world. When Yan Ning was only a little girl，she dreamed of being a great scientist. After years of hard work，in 1996，she went to Tsinghua University to study biology. After graduating from Tsinghua in 2000，she went to Princeton University and finished her study abroad in 2007. Then she returned to Tsinghua and set up her own lab. At the age of 30 she became the youngest professor（教授）at Tsinghua.Now, Yan，42，has become a leading biology researcher at Princeton. On April 30，she was included among the 100 new members and 25 foreign associates（院士）into the US National Academy of Science（国家科学院）However，it was a long and difficult road for her to make such achievements. She said that in order to realize her dream，she experienced a lot of failures and pains. But she never gave up her dream. Instead，she followed her dream and fought for it.She usually works at least I4 hours a day. Sometimes she even forgets to eat and rest and works until late night. She never gets tired because she thinks doing research is the most "comfortable" job for her.In a TV interview，Yan encouraged young people to work hard for their dreams. "All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to follow them. "34. Yan went to Tsinghua to study in 1996.A. chemistryB. physicsC. medicineD. biology35. We can learn from the passage that ______.A. Yan wanted to give up when she had failures and pains in research.B. Yan never gets tired because doing research is the easiest job.C. Yan achieved her dream because she had the courage to follow it.D. Yan made these achievements mainly by asking others for help.36. What is the best title（标题）for this passage?A. A Difficult Research.B. A Dream Follower.C. A Smooth Road.D. A Famous UniversityCWe usually see ancient plants or insects in amber(琥珀). But recently, a group of researchers found something unusual in amber —a feathered tail!The tail includes bones, soft tissue and even feathers. It is 37 mm long, which is about the length of a matchstick. It looks like a plant at first sight. But researchers later identified(确定) it as part of the tail of a dinosaur that couldn’t fly almost 100 million years ago.Xing Lida of Beijing’s China University of Geosciences discovered the amber in a market in Myanmar in 2015. “It is an amazing fossil(化石) and the finest details of feathers can be seen in 3-D.”he said.The researchers note in their paper that this finding is particularly special because, although dinosaur feathers have been found in amber before, we don’t know which dinosaurs they came from. But this time researchers know more.The tail is likely to belong to a tiny dinosaur called coelurosaur. Famous coelurosaurs include the T-rex(霸王龙) and V elociraptor(迅猛龙) —the latter of which would finally evolve into birds.So with the “once in a lifetime”finding, can we hope for the possibility of a real Jurassic Park (侏罗纪公园)? In the movie series, scientists bring dinosaurs back to life by getting their DNA from blood found in amber.But Canadian scientist Ryan Mckellar said that although soft tissue and blood of the tail were found in the amber, no genetic material was kept. “The Jurassic Park answer is still a ‘no’ — this is in the science fiction.” he said.37. What do you know about the amber?a. It is about 100 million years old.b. It was discovered in Myanmar.c. It was discovered this year.d. It is a valuable fossil.A. abB. bcC. acD. bd38. What does the underlined phrase “evolve into” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. come intoB. break intoC. grow intoD. get into39. The movie Jurassic Park is mentioned to ______ .A. talk about the use of DNA in this areaB. call on people to watch itC. compare different dinosaursD. talk about science fictionDIn 1992, a group of architects(建筑师)and engineers in Seattle had collected hundreds of canned goods for charity. “We wanted to give back to the community,”said Deborah Ashcraft, organizer for the Construction project. V olunteers also wanted to have some “c reative fun,” so they used the cans to create a huge map of the State of Washington.Today Construction has thousands of volunteers across the United States and Canada, for the purpose of creating a world without hunger. Construction members build their delicious artwork in shopping areas and museums.In some cities, such as Tampa Bay, Florida, Construction artists are made up of school kids, “Our class built a Wurlitzer organ(风琴)out of cans,”said Jasmine Heaggans, a student at Lanier Elementary. “We based ours on the 77-year-old organ at the Tampa The ater.”Beginning in September, architects Danni Anstett and Danielle Williams visited class weekly.After a field trip to see the real Wurlitzer, the architects showed the class how to draw pictures of the organ from all sides. They instructed students to do a plan view. And they helped the young artists count up how many cans would be used.On October 24, Construction workers from Lanier and three other Tampa Bay schools gathered at the local shopping area to build and display their artworks. The students got to stack (堆)cans. With 1,800 cans, Lanier students had nine hours to get the Wurlitzer ready for the judges.“The cans had to be perfectly stacked,” student Courtney Keenam recalled, “or everything would fall.”After four hours, the students were feeling pretty good. The organ was taking shape. Then the kids had an “uh-oh” moment. The cans were facing the wrong way. They had to be turned around. At last, the Wurlitzer stood shiny and tall, just in time for the judges to name it “most creative.”40. What is the aim of the Construction project?A. To sell canned food.B. To end world hunger.C. To bring people much fun.D. To build better communities.41. How did Anstett and Williams help the young volunteers?A. By helping design the artwork.B. By building an organ with cans.C. By drawing pictures of an organ.D. By offering them a real Wurlitzer organ.42. Why did the students come together on October 24?A. To collect cans used by the shopping area.B. To do volunteer work for the shopping area.C. To enter a can building competition.D. To get more people to join Construction.43.What does “it” in the last paragraph refer to?A. The real Wurlitzer organ.B. The 77-year-old organ at the Tampa Theater.C. The huge map of the State of Washington.D. The Wurlitzer organ built out of cans.四、阅读表达（每小题1分, 满分5分）阅读下面短文, 在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案（每格限填一词）。

greatest risk I'd ever taken was playing a role in my high school's fall play．I was not only a person who had （12）performance （表演）experience，but also I stuttered（口吃）．Then （13）of performing in front of people made me worried．The reason why I （14）to perform was that I wanted to take part in my school theatre program．On the day of the audition（试演），there were also some acting exercises to wam us up．We were divided into pairs to （15）parts of the play．I felt very worried．After I said some of the lines （台词），my partner said，"I （16）you are stuttering．Is that for dramatic effect or do you really stutter？"I was speechless．When my （17）to audition came，my heart was beating fast．Across from me sat the director and his assistants（助手）．Needless to say．I was really （18）my performance．I played the role of a man painter who pretended（假装）to be a woman．My partner was playing a businessman who wanted to marry me（the woman）．We said our lines and，（19），I didn't stutter．We went throughit several times，and finally it was over．I was so （20），The next Monday I was told that I had made the play．How excited I was!It was a lot of fun doing the play，and it was clear to me that my stuttering couldn't

them float through the air，and some lie hidden in the ground．They do not need sunlight to survive，and if the weather becomes too cold，they can become inactive until conditions improve．What are these？They are called fungi（菌类），and you see them almost every day．Many kinds of fungi seem disgusting，such as the green black things that appear on the food which are left too long in the refrigerator．But other kinds are not so bad．For example，the yeast that is used to make bread and mushrooms （蘑菇）are both fungi．What makes fungi different from plants and animals？An animal can move around by itself．Fungi get around too，but they don't have feet，wings，or tails．They have to wait for wind or some other outside force to move them．Plants are different from fungi because they have chlorophyll（叶绿素）．It helps them make food from the energy in sunlight．Fungi do not have chlorophyll．Some fungi are bad，while others are not．Some fungi cause diseases，such as athlete's foot，which makes feet uncomfortable．Other kinds of fungi can be used to make medicies，which have saved many lives．Fungi clean up more than wounds，though．They are the world's first recyclers．Without fungi，our world would be a mess．Since fungi cannot make their own food as plants do，they must get their food elsewhere．Many fungi get their food from dead plants．They break them down and turn them into soil．The fungi get a meal，and the world gets a housecleaning．23．What does the underlined word"disgusting"most probably mean？A．strongB．unpleasantC．activeD．small24．According to the passage，．A．fungi can move everywhere by themselvesB．fungi are unable to survive in cold conditionsC．some fungi can make food from the energy in sunlight．D．some fungi are useful to humans and the environment25．Where can you most probably

wearing flipflops（拖鞋）？That's what my friend Brandon，Josh and I were doing last autumn．We were looking for a waterfall（瀑布）．We didn't have much time to get to the waterfall and back，so we were running．We were wearing flip﹣flops to prevent our shoes getting dirty．It was raining，but lightly．It kept us cool as we climbed over giant stones and through a shallow（浅的）stream．We followed red arrows（箭头）and crossed that stream several times，walking on toward the promised waterfall．Time was not on our side，howevr，and we were forced to turn around．As we started back，we looked at the shallow stream we had just crossed．Where did this rushing river come from？That was when we realized a flash flood was around!In the few minutes the water rose at a fast speed．Now there were no big stones tobe seen﹣only what looked like lumps（隆起）covered with rushing water．We had no choice but to move our way back carefully in the rushing water﹣in flip﹣flops．We had crossed the stream not once or twice，but six times in search of a waterfall that we never even reached!With most of the crossings，we needed each other's help if we didn't want to be washed away by water．Wet all over，we felt relaxed after we made the last crossing．"My dad always told me to keep off a river when travelling in the rain．"Josh said as we hurried back down the path．"Why didn't you tell us that earlier？"I laughed．"Would it have made a difference？"came the reply．He had a point．26．Why were there no big stones to be seen in the stream when they came back？A．The big stones were moved away by someone else．B．They were runningtoo fast to notice the big stones．C．The big stones were covered with rushing water．D．The big stones were washed away by rushing water．27．Why didn't they find the waterfall in the end？A．Because they were short of time．B．Because they were wearing flip﹣flops．C．Because Josh kept warning thm not to go any further．D．Because the flood prevented them from going forward．28．We can infer（推断）from the passage that the writer and his friends．A．were crazy about outdoor activitiesB．made full preparations before the tripC．crossed rushing water easily in the endD．had much experience in travelling in the rain．29．（6分）While it is common for restaurant owners to connect with their customers，a restaurant owner in the U．S．is taking it to a whole new level．Tim Harries gives out free hugs（拥抱）to every customer at the end of each meal．The atmosphere （气氛）at his restaurant"Tim's Place"is so positive（积极的）that customers often call it the"World's friendliest restaurant"．．"Tim's Hug"is in fact an item on the menu described as a"love"treat．Tim's hugs are doubly special because of everything he has achieved．The 26一year﹣old is probably the only Down syndrome sufferer（唐氏综合症患者）in the U．S．to own a restaurant，but he has several other things to be proud of﹣﹣he's a skillful special Olympian，an excellent sailor，and all experienced fisherman．He was also chosen as Homecoming King and Student of the Year in high school!So when a man like Tim hugs you，it is sure to be a special and unforgettable experienceWhen Tim expressed interest in opening a restaurant，Keith，a small businessman himself，supported him．Tim hired other people to manage the place and do the cooking，and he introducedthe idea of free hugs．He realized that people want to feel at home at a restaurant．That is why he included"love"as all ite on the menu．Customers can order the free hug from Tim，and even if they don't，he'll probably hug them anyway．The restaurant has been around sinc 2010，and Tim has given out over 19，000hugs in the past five years﹣﹣he keeps count using a special Hug Counter．Many customers love visiting"Tim's Place"．"I've been coming here once a week．"said Michelle Garth﹣Jones，a regular customer．"I love local restaurants，and this specil one has a story that stays with you．"29．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？A．Customers prefer to feel relaxed at a restaurant．B．Unless you order Tim's Hug，he will not hug you．C．As soon as you enter Tim's Place，you will get a warm hug．D．Michelle Garth﹣Jones loves listening to the story in the restaurant．30．Which of the following words can best describe Time Harris？A．HumorousB．CreativeC．SeriousD．Curious31．What may be the best title for this passage？A．Tim's AchievementsB．A Special ExperienceC．A Down Syndrome SuffererD．The World's Friendliest Restaurant．32．（8分）Many expressions that we use in American English come from novels．Today we will look at some of them from Lewis Carroll's famous novel"Alice in Wonderlan"in detail．The story is about a young girl fallin down a rabbit hole．When she finally lands，she finds herself in a strange world and meets some strange characters．The first character Alice meets is the White Rabbit，who runs past her and says some strange words．Alice chases（追赶）him，and that is where her adventures begin．In English，chasing a white rabbit means chasing an impossible clue and finding yourself in a misleading situation．Then，as she runs after the rabbit，she falls down the rabbit hole into Wonderland．To fall down the rabbit hole can mean to enter a confusing（令人困惑的）situation．However，usually we use this expression to mean we get interested in something to the point of distraction （分神）．It often happens by accident and is about something not that meaningful．Later in the story，Alice meets the March Hare and the Hatter at a crazy tea party．Hares（野兔）have long been thought to behave excitedly in March，which is their mating（交配）season．Scientifically，this may not be true．But to be mad as a March Hare means that someone is completely mad，or crazy．The expression mad as a Hatter also means to be completely crazy．Of the two，mad as a Hatter is more common．But don't tell the March Hare．Who knows how he will react（反应）！Near the end of the story，Alice meets the Queen of Hearts．A woman who is called a Queen of Hearts likes controlling others and always tries to control everything and everyone around her．32．Which of the following situations best fits the expressions to fall down a rabbit hole？A．When Tom was taking a walk in the forest，he suddenly fell over onto the ground．B．When Mary turned on the TV，she chose to watch the talk show programme as usual．C．When Jim was looking for a sport book online，he lost himself in many report on surperstars．D．When Lily was thinking about how to solve a math problem，she came up with a good idea．33．According to the passage，the expression to be mad as a March Hare．A．describes how hares behave in MarchB．shows hares'characteristics in a scientific wayC．is used more often than the expression mad as a Hatter．D．has the same meaning as the expression mad as a Hatter34．Which character in"Alice in Wonderland"wants others to obey his or her orders in every situation？A．AliceB．The March HareC．The HatterD．The Queen of Hearts．35．The writer mainly wants to in the passage．A．introduce a famous novel and its language styleB．introduce a famous writer Lewis Carroll and his novelsC．explore some English expressions from a famous nvelD．explain why many expressions in English come from novels．四、阅读表达（共5小题：每小题5分，满分9分）阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，每个空格里只填一个单词．36．（5分）The Internet nowadays opens a wide world to people，including teenagers，but many parents worry that their children may meet with something unhealthy when searching online．In order to solve this problem，a new search engine for children called Kiddle has appeared．Search results are

Google，most results appear along with large thumbnail pictures（缩略图）to make it easier for children to find what they are looking for．For example，when searching for"meow meow"．Google produces pages for information about a drug（毒品）that has"meow meow"as its nickname（绰号），but Kiddle lists information only about cats，even with some cartoon pictures．The company explained，"Websites which appear in Kiddle search results satisfy family﹣friendly requirements，as we filter websites with unhealthy content．"Kiddle﹣a Child﹣Friendly Search EngineCharacteristics•Only safe websites are shown．•Descriptions are

animal，right？Wrong!Many organisms（有机体）in our world are neither．Some of them float through the air，and some lie hidden in the ground．They do not need sunlight to survive，and if the weather becomes too cold，they can become inactive until conditions improve．What are these？They are called fungi（菌类），and you see them almost every day．Many kinds of fungi seem disgusting，such as the green black things that appear on the food which are left too long in the refrigerator．But other kinds are not so bad．For example，the yeast that is used to make bread and mushrooms （蘑菇）are both fungi．What makes fungi different from plants and animals？An animal can move around by itself．Fungi get around too，but they don't have feet，wings，or tails．They have to wait for wind or some other outside force to move them．Plants are different from fungi because they have chlorophyll（叶绿素）．It helps them make food from the energy in sunlight．Fungi do not have chlorophyll．Some fungi are bad，while others are not．Some fungi cause diseases，such as athlete's foot，which makes feet uncomfortable．Other kinds of fungi can be used to make medicies，which have saved many lives．Fungi clean up more than wounds，though．They are the world's first recyclers．Without fungi，our world would be a mess．Since fungi cannot make their own food as plants do，they must get their food elsewhere．Many fungi get their food from dead plants．They break them down and turn them into soil．The fungi get a meal，and the world gets a housecleaning．23．What does the underlined word"disgusting"most probably mean？BA．strongB．unpleasantC．activeD．small24．According to the passage，D．A．fungi can move everywhere by themselvesB．fungi are unable to survive in cold conditionsC．some fungi can make food from the energy in sunlight．D．some fungi are useful to humans and the environment25．Where can you most probably find this passage？BA．In a social report．B．In a biology book．C．In ageography magazine．D．In a farming book．【考点】O9：日常生活类阅读．【分析】本文是介绍菌类，很多菌类看起来让人很不舒服，例如食物变质后的菌类，会引起疾病，还有一些是有益的，例如用来制作面包和蘑菇的酵母，还可以制药，菌类和植物和动物不同，菌类需要靠外力去移动．【解答】23．B．词义理解题．结合后文such as the green black things that appear on the food which are left too long in the refrigerator可知这种菌类让人感觉不舒服，故选B．24．D．推理题．根据第四段Other kinds of fungi can be used to make medicies，which have saved many lives．可知有些菌类对身体有益，结合最后Fungi clean up more than wounds，though．They are the world's first recyclers．Without fungi，our world would be a mess．Since fungi cannot make their own food as plants do，they must get their food elsewhere．Many fungi get their food from dead plants．They break them down and turn them into soil．The fungi get a meal，and the world gets a housecleaning．可知对环境有益，故选D．25．B．推理题，本文是介绍菌类，有益菌对人类和环境的用处，故推知这是来自于一本生物书，故选B．【点评】本题中个别小题不能直接从文中找到答案，需要自己根据相关内容分析总结．一定要弄懂全文后再动手解答问题．。

She found that the desks were no longer in rows，but pushed together to make eight bigger desks. She was so excited about it for the first two days that she couldn't listen to the teachers carefully. But soon she and her classmates got used to this new classroom arrangement（安排）. "Now our class is quieter，"said Emma. "What's more，we can come up with our own ideas and learn more through discussion. It's a better way to study. "David liked it，too. "Group members first discuss，"he said，"and then show to the whole class. It encourages us greatly. "This was part of a reform （改革）at David's school. The school made this reform because they wanted to offer students easier ways to study and more chances to discuss. "Our school hopes to improve students' abilities to study by themselves and work in groups. "said Linda，an English teacher.However，the reform has demanded（要求）more from teachers. Now they have only 15 minutes to give a lesson that would have been taught in 40 minutes before. It is difficult to teach in such a short time. The teachers have to find better ways to teach more effectively（有效地）."The reform demands more，but I'm sure it is helpful. "added Linda.31. After the new classroom arrangement，Emma found______ .A. their class was noisier all the timeB. they could learn more through discussionC. they couldn't come up with their own ideasD. it was a harder way to study32.

The desks are no longer in rows now.B. The reform has demanded more from teachers.C. It's easy for teachers to give a lesson in 15 minutes now.D. Emma and her classmates like the new classroom arrangement.BMany kids help their parents with chores，such as doing the dishes，cleaning the living room and taking out the rubbish. And somd kids get money or other rewards（奖赏）such as more computer time by doing chores．But some people do not think that kids should get rewards by doing chores. Susie Walton．an expert，believes that by rewarding kids，parents are sending a message that work isn't important unless you can get something. "Running any kind of family is a team work，" Walton says. "A home is a living place for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house．"Other people believe that getting money or other rewards makes kids do chores happily and it also teaches them real world lessons about what we need to do to make money. There are also now apps（应用软件）. With the Chore﹣Monster app，kids can get points and online gifts by doingchores. Kids can change them into real life rewards either online or in the real world. "We hope kids can do more chores so they can get more rewards，" one man says．What do you think? Should kids get rewards for doing chores? Or should kids help do chores without getting anything？Write a 200﹣word reply and send it to us. The last day for reply is April 10th. If you want to read more ideas about topic，you can click here．34. Susie Walton agrees that ______.A. kids should do more chores than parentsB. Parents should make their kids do more choresC. Kids shouldn't get rewards by doing chores.D. Kids should do chores as young as possible35. How does the Chore﹣Monster app help parents?A. By making kids like doing chores.B. By telling parents good ways.C. By teaching kids to do chores.D. By telling parents how to change.36. You can send your reply on ______.A. March 23rdB. April 18thC. May 28thD. June 24thCAfter that, we went on down the river. It was very dark that night and it wasn’t easy to see where we were going. Suddenly, a big steamboat came at us very fast, and the next minute it was right over us. Jim and I jumped off the raft (木筏) into the water. The boat hit the raft and went on up the river.When I came up out o f the water, I couldn’t see Jim anywhere. I called out his name again and again, but there was no answer. “He’s dead!” I thought. Slowly, I swam to the side of the river and got out. I saw that I was near a big old wooden house. Suddenly a lot of very angry dogs jumped out at me. They made a terrible noise and someone called from the house, “Who’s there?”“George Jackson,” I answered quickly. “I’ve fallen off a river boat.”Well, the people who lived in that house were very kind, and they took me in and gave me some new clothes and a good meal. I told them that my family were all dead, so they said I could stay with them as long as I wanted. It was a beautiful house and the food was good there, so I stayed.A few days later one of the slaves in the house came to me and said, “Come with me!” Together, we went down to some trees by the river. “In there!” he said and went away.On the ground, I found a man, asleep. It was Jim! I was really pleased to see him. When the steamboat hit the raft, Jim told me, the raft didn’t break up. Jim swam after it and caught it. Then he began to look for me.We decided to leave at once. It’s all right living in a house for a little while, but you feel more free and easy and comfortable on a raft.37.What happened LAST in the story?A. George saw a big house.B. George got some new clothes.C. George found Jim on the ground.D. George jumped off the raft into the water.38. Why did George Jackson answer “quickly” when someone called from the house?A.

It never rains but it pours.B. Every dog has its day.C. Burn the candle at both ends.D. Many hands make light work.DMy elder brother Steve gave me important lessons in values that helped me grow into an adult after my father died when I was six years old.Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who took some time to ask me what happened. When I told him that my baseball brok e Mrs. Holt’s basement window, Steve encouraged me to tell her the truth. After all, I played basement in a wrong place. As I explained to Mrs. Holt, my voice shook. Of course, I had to pay for the broken window from my pocket money.I also learned from Steve that personal property (财产) is a sacred(神圣的) thing. After I founda shiny pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it. Then Steve explained that it might be important to the loser although it had little value. He also reminded me of how sad I was when I lost the small wooden dog my father made. At last, I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids.I still remembered the smell of her perfume(香水) when she gave a hug.Of all the lessons Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind. When I was twelve, I killed an old brown bird in the garden with a gun. With excitement, I asked Steve to come from the house to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you first, Mark?” I didn’t know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “Even if it hurts you first, you should think a long time and then decide whether you will kill it or not.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment I will never forget.40. How many lessons Steve gave to Mark are mentioned in the passage?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.41. What does the underlined word mean in Chinese?A. 开心的B. 清晰的C. 有趣的D. 可怕的42. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Mark was a boy when he wrote this passage.B. When a living thing hurts you, you should kill it.C. Mark lost the small dog his father bought somewhere.D. Even if a living thing hurts you, you should not kill it at once.43. What’s the best title of the passage?A. My Guide in ChildhoodB. My Lovely BrotherC. My Early MemoryD. My Sweet Childhood四、阅读表达（每小题1分, 满分5分）阅读下面短文, 在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案（每格限填一词）。
