It was nearly dark; the sun was dropping down the mountains far away. Little Tom came back home, with tears in his eyes.
“What’s the matter, Tom? How’s your trip?”, his mother asked with a big smile. “I failed. The mountain is so high and full of big or small stones on the way. I still went ahead. But I was tired and it was so late that I had to come back.” Tom cried. “It doesn’t matter. You are only 14 years old after all. You still have another chance.” his mother said. “But, standing at the top of the mountain is my dream!” Tom said. His father came over and asked, “Did you see the green trees on your way to the mountain?” “Sure, and there are a lot of beautiful flowers by the side of the road.” Tom replied. “Did you hear the birds singing?” his father asked. “There were many kinds of birds singing in the trees, and the sound was very sweet.” Tom said. “Did you feel the beauty of nature?” his father asked. “Yes, the blue sky, the white clouds, the green trees and the colorful flowers made a nice picture.” Tom answered. “That’s enough!” his father smiled and said, “Please remember, son. In some cases, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Although you didn’t reach the top of the mountain, you got a lot on the way.”

Cheating can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who were the true winners of a game.
Many people like the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help on the next test—unless the person cheats again.
Some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really getting that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in difficulty at school, and maybe at home, too.
Some kids cheat because they are busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.
If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to deal with swimming and school.
A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so that they can solve the problem together. Talking about these problems and working them out will help kids feel better than cheating.
根据短文内容,判断句子正(T)、误(F)。
46. When people cheat, it’s fair to other people.
47. Cheating can solve the problem of not knowing the material.
48. If they get caught cheating, they’ll be in trouble at school.
49. The fourth paragraph mainly talks about the reasons why kids cheat.
50. The kids could talk with their parents or teachers to solve the problem.
(D)

Zhou Chu was born about 1,700 years ago. He grew up without much parental control. He was tall and strong with great physical strength. However, he had a bad temper (脾气), had lots of bad habits and was sometimes violent. Everybody was scared of him. They tried not to meet him or talk to him in the street. Gradually, he started to feel lonely.
One day, Zhou Chu saw some old men talking. He went up to them and asked, “Hey! Old men! Why are you looking so worried?” One man said, “We are worrying about the Three Evils around.”
“What are the Three Evils? Tell me and I’ll beat them!” Zhou Chu waved his arms to show his strength. “Well,” said one man. “First, there’s a tiger in the South Mountain. It often takes away our animals and even attacks (袭击) people. Then, there’s a flood dragon under the long bridge over that river. It often makes big waves, breaks our ships and kills many people.”
“Okay,” said Zhou Chu. “So what’s the third evil?” The men looked at each other but nobody spoke. “What is the third evil?” Zhou Chu said angrily. One man said, “The third evil is you!”
“Me?” Zhou Chu was very angry. “Am I a tiger or a flood dragon?” he shouted. The man said, “You’re always doing bad things. Are you different from the tiger or the flood dragon?”
Zhou Chu went home. He felt very ashamed (羞愧的) of himself and was very sorry for his behavior. In the end, he said to himself, “I must stop behaving like this. I’ll get rid of (除掉) the Evils, all three of them!”
The next day, he found the big tiger and killed it. After that, Zhou Chu went for the flood dragon. They fought in the river for three days and three nights. Finally he killed it.
He went home and decided to change himself. From then on, Zhou Chu was a completely changed man. With hard work, he became a famous man and he has been praised (赞扬) by generations ever since.

Look at the picture! Nothing is wrong with your eyes. There is something wrong with the tower. It’s the Leaning Tower of Pisa. It is in Pisa, a city in Italy.
In 1173, people in Pisa began to build the tower. They wanted it to be round and tall, taller than any other tower in Italy. In 1178, when the tower was just three storeys tall, it began to lean. There was a war in Pisa at the time. So construction (建造) on the tower stopped for years. After about 200 years, in 1370, the construction was finished. The tower has eight storeys. It is 55.86 meters tall.
But why does it lean? There are different opinions about this. Some people have pointed out that while the tower is very tall and heavy, the ground is made of soft sand and clay. The tower leans because it is sinking (下沉) into the soft ground.
The tower is famous not only because of what it looks like, but also because of a famous experiment. The great scientist Galileo did this experiment around 1590. He dropped two iron balls from the top of the tower—one weighing 8kg and the other weighing 4kg. Both balls landed on the ground at the same time. Most people thought the heavier ball would land first.

1. —How can you miss such ________ exciting movie?
—It’s not ________ big deal. I will watch it later this week.
A. a; a B. the; an C. /; / D. an; a
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你怎么能错过这样一部激动人心的电影呢?——没什么大不了的。我这周晚些时候会看。
考查冠词用法。a表泛指,不定冠词,用于以辅音音素开头的单词前;the表特指,定冠词;an表泛指,不定冠词,用于以元音音素开头的单词前;/表示不填,零冠词。第一空,根据“exciting movie”可知,此处是指一场激动人心的电影,应用不定冠词表示泛指,且exciting是以元音音素开头的单词,应用an;第二空,根据“not … big deal”可知,指没什么大不了,应用不定冠词表泛指,且big是以辅音音素开头的单词,用a。故选D。
2. Can you remind him ________ a cup of coffee for me?
A. buy B. to buy C. buys D. bought
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:你能提醒他给我买杯咖啡吗?
考查非谓语动词。根据“remind him...”可知,此处是remind sb. to do sth.“提醒某人做某事”,动词不定式作宾语补足语。故选B。
3. He ________ working on the plan as soon as he ________ this meeting.
A. will start ; finishes B. will start; will finish
C. started; will finish D. starts; finishes
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:他一开完会就会开始制定计划。
考查as soon as引导的从句。as soon as“一……就……”,引导时间状语,当表示将来要发生的动作时,遵循“主将从现”的原则,即主句用一般将来时,从句用一般现在时表示将来时间。故选A。
4. ________ it was raining heavily, they decided to go for a walk in the park.
A. Although B. As long as C. Since D. If
【答案】A
【解析】

It was nearly dark; the sun was dropping down the mountains far away. Little Tom came back home, with tears in his eyes.
“What’s the matter, Tom? How’s your trip?”, his mother asked with a big smile. “I failed. The mountain is so high and full of big or small stones on the way. I still went ahead. But I was tired and it was so late that I had to come back.” Tom cried. “It doesn’t matter. You are only 14 years old after all. You still have another chance.” his mother said. “But, standing at the top of the mountain is my dream!” Tom said. His father came over and asked, “Did you see the green trees on your way to the mountain?” “Sure, and there are a lot of beautiful flowers by the side of the road.” Tom replied. “Did you hear the birds singing?” his father asked. “There were many kinds of birds singing in the trees, and the sound was very sweet.” Tom said. “Did you feel the beauty of nature?” his father asked. “Yes, the blue sky, the white clouds, the green trees and the colorful flowers made a nice picture.” Tom answered. “That’s enough!” his father smiled and said, “Please remember, son. In some cases, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Although you didn’t reach the top of the mountain, you got a lot on the way.”

Cheating can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who were the true winners of a game.
Many people like the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help on the next test—unless the person cheats again.
Some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really getting that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in difficulty at school, and maybe at home, too.
Some kids cheat because they are busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.
If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to deal with swimming and school.
A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so that they can solve the problem together. Talking about these problems and working them out will help kids feel better than cheating.
根据短文内容,判断句子正(T)、误(F)。
46. When people cheat, it’s fair to other people.
47. Cheating can solve the problem of not knowing the material.
48. If they get caught cheating, they’ll be in trouble at school.
49. The fourth paragraph mainly talks about the reasons why kids cheat.
50. The kids could talk with their parents or teachers to solve the problem.
【答案】46. F 47. F
48. T 49. T
50. T

One day, Zhou Chu saw some old men talking. He went up to them and asked, “Hey! Old men! Why are you looking so worried?” One man said, “We are worrying about the Three Evils around.”
“What are the Three Evils? Tell me and I’ll beat them!” Zhou Chu waved his arms to show his strength. “Well,” said one man. “First, there’s a tiger in the South Mountain. It often takes away our animals and even attacks (袭击) people. Then, there’s a flood dragon under the long bridge over that river. It often makes big waves, breaks our ships and kills many people.”
“Okay,” said Zhou Chu. “So what’s the third evil?” The men looked at each other but nobody spoke. “What is the third evil?” Zhou Chu said angrily. One man said, “The third evil is you!”
“Me?” Zhou Chu was very angry. “Am I a tiger or a flood dragon?” he shouted. The man said, “You’re always doing bad things. Are you different from the tiger or the flood dragon?”
Zhou Chu went home. He felt very ashamed (羞愧的) of himself and was very sorry for his behavior. In the end, he said to himself, “I must stop behaving like this. I’ll get rid of (除掉) the Evils, all three of them!”
The next day, he found the big tiger and killed it. After that, Zhou Chu went for the flood dragon. They fought in the river for three days and three nights. Finally he killed it.
He went home and decided to change himself. From then on, Zhou Chu was a completely changed man. With hard work, he became a famous man and he has been praised (赞扬) by generations ever since.

Look at the picture! Nothing is wrong with your eyes. There is something wrong with the tower. It’s the Leaning Tower of Pisa. It is in Pisa, a city in Italy.
In 1173, people in Pisa began to build the tower. They wanted it to be round and tall, taller than any other tower in Italy. In 1178, when the tower was just three storeys tall, it began to lean. There was a war in Pisa at the time. So construction (建造) on the tower stopped for years. After about 200 years, in 1370, the construction was finished. The tower has eight storeys. It is 55.86 meters tall.
But why does it lean? There are different opinions about this. Some people have pointed out that while the tower is very tall and heavy, the ground is made of soft sand and clay. The tower leans because it is sinking (下沉) into the soft ground.
The tower is famous not only because of what it looks like, but also because of a famous experiment. The great scientist Galileo did this experiment around 1590. He dropped two iron balls from the top of the tower—one weighing 8kg and the other weighing 4kg. Both balls landed on the ground at the same time. Most people thought the heavier ball would land first.
