On 20 February, Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London, announced a plan to offer free school meals to all primary school pupils in London in the next academic year. Khan’s plan will help around 270,000 pupils and will cost £130 million.
In recent years, the cost of basic items like food and energy has gone up, putting pressure on some families. Research shows that when children have a healthy 45 they learn more in class. Khan had free school meals when he was younger, and he told The Week Junior, “It is important for everyone to eat the 46 food together. Meals are a time to sit and talk to your friends. No one should be made to feel different or have to sit at another table because they get free meals.”
The plan won’t start until September because kitchens require time to 47 more staff and get ready to make more lunches. Khan said, “If overnight, every school in London had to do free school meals, there would be chaos (混乱) in the kitchens.”
The 48 for who gets free school meals are different all over the UK. In the rest of England, all pupils from Reception to Year 2 are given free meals. Older children in England and Scotland from eligible families (those who can prove they require them) 49 get free meals. In Northern Ireland, free meals are only available to children from eligible families. In Wales, from 2024 all primary school children will get them.
Victoria Benson from Gingerbread, a charity that supports single parents, said the plan “will be a huge relief (减轻) to many parents that their child will now be fed at school.” However, not everyone 50 the plan. Some people think all secondary school pupils should be given free meals too. Others say free meals should only be given to those who really require them.
45.A.diet B.memory C.habit D.idea
46.A.expensive B.simple C.same D.cheap
47.A.interview B.buy C.train D.discover
48.A.rules B.programs C.results D.prices
49.A.ever B.never C.still D.also
50.A.depends on B.agrees with C.looks at D.works out
七、短文填空
Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.(在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其内容通顺,每空格限填一词,首字母已给)
The Answer Is In the Trees
Dave Meko, a scientist at the University of Arizona, noticed that from 1999 to the following years it became drier and drier. And water levels in the huge Colorado River were dropping rapidly. This was the b 51 of a serious drought (干旱). Everyone began asking, “How long will it last?” Meko believed that he could find the answer in the trees.
Meko is a tree-ring expert. He studies the rings within a tree to find information about climate change. Each year, a tree adds a new layer of wood. These layers look like a series of rings. During times of h 52 rainfall, a ring is wide. When there is a shortage of water, a ring is narrow. These rings are nature’s record of rainfall and climate change.
Meko and his team quickly started a new research project. Their goal was to find out how long previous droughts lasted. The team collected as many old wood samples as possible. They tested wood samples from 1,200 years ago until the p 53 . When they examined the rings, the news about rainfall in the past was not good.
Meko’s research showed that, the 20th century was an unusually wet time. Trees from this period had wide, healthy rings. Rain was plentiful d 54 that century, millions of people moved to the region. Before that time, however, the rings showed that droughts occurred on a regular basis. In fact, drought was part of the usual climate pattern. There were severe droughts in the 900s, the 1100s, and the late 1200s.
Human history seems to s 55 Meko’s findings. The native Anasazi lived in this area for hundreds of years, starting around 500 AD.They were farmers and depended on water to grow their crops. However, at the end of the 13th century, the Anasazi s 56 left the area. Experts do not know exactly why the Anasazi left. They think it was because there was no longer enough water to farm. And Meko’s tree rings clearly show a serious drought at that time.
How long will the current drought last? Using nature’s c 57 from the past, experts predict that this drought may continue for another 50 years.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)
Dear Mrs Wu,
I love video games and I develop my own games. It’s my favourite hobby. My parents were very encouraging at first. The day I started secondary school, they changed their mind. They now suggest that I give up video games altogether because study should be my priority (优先考虑的事项). What’s more, they don’t even allow me to go out with my friends at night. Every time they do that, I act like I don’t care. But in fact, I am quite angry and upset because they simply have no respect for me and my needs. What can I do?Sincerely yours,
Jason
Dear Jason,
You must be feeling very stressed these days. I’m glad you wrote to me for help. However, you should keep calm and talk to your parents about the benefits of your hobby. I can see why your parents are against video-gaming—it was seen as a useless pastime (娱乐活动) back in the time when your parents were young. The best idea may be to tell them that it is good training for new tech jobs like being a video game developer or drone photographer (无人机摄影师). Also, it is a good way to have a rest after a long school day. Try pointing out real-life examples to them to support your idea. Meanwhile, you should also make sure your hobby doesn’t get in the way of your school performance.
As for your parents’ not allowing you to go out with your friends, it may be a good idea to open up to them about your private life. For example, you can ________. This may help them change their mind. Meanwhile, show them you are a responsible person who understands their worries, and will not let them down. If you can do this, I don’t believe they will be so hard on you. Remember, you mustn’t lose your cool, as that would be immature (不成熟的). Cheers!
Mrs Wu

【详解】句意:学校必须教导学生长大后采取负责任的行为。act是动词,应用responsible的副词responsibly修饰动词。故填responsibly。
31.Taikonauts are role models for young people and many are big fans of . (they)
【答案】theirs
【详解】句意:中国航天宇航员是年轻人的榜样,许多人都是他们的忠实粉丝。根据“many are big fans of...”及所给词可知,此处指“他们的粉丝”,此处是“名词+of+名词性物主代词”构成双重所有格结构,they的名词性物主代词是theirs,故填theirs。
四、完成句子
32.Someone tried to enter our house by force while we were away.(保持句意基本不变)
Someone tried to our house while we were away.
【答案】 break into
【详解】句意:我们不在时,有人试图强行进入我们家。“enter our house by force”意味着“强行进入”,也就是“闯入”,英文表达为break into;try to do sth表示“试图做某事”,第一空应填动词原形,故填break;into。
33.skills, become, are required, what, a cartoon artist, to(连词成句)
?
【答案】What skills are required to become a cartoon artist
【详解】首先结合提示词和标点符号明确所要组合的句子是一个特殊疑问句,句子叙述一件事实,所以时态用一般现在时,主语是动作的承受者,句子使用被动语态,构成为be+动词的过去分词,what skills什么技能,to become去成为,a cartoon artist一名卡通艺术家;故答案为What skills are required to become a cartoon artist“成为一名卡通艺术家需要什么技能”。
34.Take water with you if you’re going for a walk in the desert.(保持句意基本不变)
Never walk in the desert water with you.
【答案】 without any
【详解】句意:如果你要去沙漠行走,带着水。原句可替换为“不带水,不要在沙漠中行走“。without“没有、缺少”,后面跟名词、代词或动名词;without any water“不带水”,故填without;any。
35.They sell this food in natural food stores throughout North America.(改为被动语态)
This food in natural food stores throughout North America.
【答案】 is sold
【详解】句意:他们在北美各地的天然食品店出售这种食品。要求变为被动语态,要用原句的宾语this food作主语,原句是一般现在时,所以要用一般现在时的被动语态,其构成为am/is/are+动词过去分词,主语是不可数名词,be动词用is,sell的过去分词是sold,故填is;sold。
36.“Did you meet at the underground station?” asked the detective.(保持句意基本不变)
The detective asked we at the underground station.
【答案】 if/whether met
【详解】句意:“你们在地铁站见过面了吗?”侦探问。原句是直接引语,要改为间接引语,也就是宾语从句,主语是一般过去时,宾语从句也要用一般过去时,动词meet的过去式为met;原句中的直接引语是一个问句,用引导词if/whether“是否”引导宾语从句,故填if/whether;met。
37.We can make people’s faces look funny by making greater some of their features.(对划线部分提问)
we make people’s faces look funny?
【答案】 How can
【详解】句意:通过放大人的一些特征我们可以让他们的脸看起来很滑稽。根据画线部分“by making greater some of their features”可知,是对方式提问,特殊疑问词用How,又因原句是含有情态动词的句子,把情态动词提前,故填How;can。
38.I have never spoken publicly before.(改为一般疑问句)
you spoken publicly before?
【答案】 Have ever
【详解】句意:我以前从来没有在公共场合发过言。根据“I have never spoken publicly before.”可知,一般疑问句意为“你以前曾经在公共场合发过言吗?”,将have提到句首并大写首字母,用ever表示“曾经”。故填Have;ever。

六、完形填空
Choose the best answer and complete the passage (选择最恰当的选项完成短文)
On 20 February, Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London, announced a plan to offer free school meals to all primary school pupils in London in the next academic year. Khan’s plan will help around 270,000 pupils and will cost £130 million.
In recent years, the cost of basic items like food and energy has gone up, putting pressure on some families. Research shows that when children have a healthy 45 they learn more in class. Khan had free school meals when he was younger, and he told The Week Junior, “It is important for everyone to eat the 46 food together. Meals are a time to sit and talk to your friends. No one should be made to feel different or have to sit at another table because they get free meals.”
The plan won’t start until September because kitchens require time to 47 more staff and get ready to make more lunches. Khan said, “If overnight, every school in London had to do free school meals, there would be chaos (混乱) in the kitchens.”
The 48 for who gets free school meals are different all over the UK. In the rest of England, all pupils from Reception to Year 2 are given free meals. Older children in England and Scotland from eligible families (those who can prove they require them) 49 get free meals. In Northern Ireland, free meals are only available to children from eligible families. In Wales, from 2024 all primary school children will get them.
Victoria Benson from Gingerbread, a charity that supports single parents, said the plan “will be a huge relief (减轻) to many parents that their child will now be fed at school.” However, not everyone 50 the plan. Some people think all secondary school pupils should be given free meals too. Others say free meals should only be given to those who really require them.

interview采访;buy买;train培训;discover发现。根据“kitchens require time to...more staff and get ready to make more lunches”可知,做更多的午餐,需要培训更多的员工,故选C。
48.句意:英国各地关于免费校餐的规定各不相同。
rules规定;programs节目;results结果;prices价格。根据下文“In the rest of England, all pupils from Reception to Year 2 are given free meals”和“In Northern Ireland, free meals are only available to children from eligible families. In Wales, from 2024 all primary school children will get them.”可知,这里是说英国各地不同的规定,故选A。

50.句意:然而,并不是每个人都同意这个计划。

七、短文填空
Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.(在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其内容通顺,每空格限填一词,首字母已给)
The Answer Is In the Trees
Dave Meko, a scientist at the University of Arizona, noticed that from 1999 to the following years it became drier and drier. And water levels in the huge Colorado River were dropping rapidly. This was the b 51 of a serious drought (干旱). Everyone began asking, “How long will it last?” Meko believed that he could find the answer in the trees.
Meko is a tree-ring expert. He studies the rings within a tree to find information about climate change. Each year, a tree adds a new layer of wood. These layers look like a series of rings. During times of h 52 rainfall, a ring is wide. When there is a shortage of water, a ring is narrow. These rings are nature’s record of rainfall and climate change.
Meko and his team quickly started a new research project. Their goal was to find out how long previous droughts lasted. The team collected as many old wood samples as possible. They tested wood samples from 1,200 years ago until the p 53 . When they examined the rings, the news about rainfall in the past was not good.
Meko’s research showed that, the 20th century was an unusually wet time. Trees from this period had wide, healthy rings. Rain was plentiful d 54 that century, millions of people moved to the region. Before that time, however, the rings showed that droughts occurred on a regular basis. In fact, drought was part of the usual climate pattern. There were severe droughts in the 900s, the 1100s, and the late 1200s.
Human history seems to s 55 Meko’s findings. The native Anasazi lived in this area for hundreds of years, starting around 500 AD.They were farmers and depended on water to grow their crops. However, at the end of the 13th century, the Anasazi s 56 left the area. Experts do not know exactly why the Anasazi left. They think it was because there was no longer enough water to farm. And Meko’s tree rings clearly show a serious drought at that time.
How long will the current drought last? Using nature’s c 57 from the past, experts predict that this drought may continue for another 50 years.
【答案】51.(b)eginning 52.(h)eavy 53.(p)resent 54.(d)uring 55.(s)upport 56.(s)uddenly 57.(c)lues
【导语】本文主要讲述了树的年轮和气候的关系。
51.句意:这是一场严重干旱的开始。根据“Everyone began asking, ‘How long will it last?’ Meko believed that he could find the answer in the trees.”可知,这是干旱的开始。beginning“开始”,名词。故填(b)eginning。
52.句意:在强降雨的时候,环是宽的。根据“When there is a shortage of water, a ring is narrow.”可知,此处与雨水少相反,表示雨水多。heavy rainfall“强降雨”。故填(h)eavy。
53.句意:他们测试了1200年前到现在的木材样本。根据“from 1,200 years ago”可知,测试了1200年前到现在的木材样本。present“现在,目前”。故填(p)resent。
54.句意:在那个世纪,雨水充足,数百万人迁移到这个地区。结合句意和首字母可知,那个世纪雨水是充足的。during“在……期间”。故填(d)uring。
55.句意:人类历史似乎支持Meko的发现。根据“The native Anasazi lived in this area for hundreds of years, starting around 500 AD. They were farmers and depended on water to grow their crops.”可知,历史与Meko的发现是一致的,因此人类历史支持Meko的发现。support“支持,赞同”,不定式符号to后接动词原形。故填(s)upport。
56.句意:然而,在13世纪末,阿纳齐族人忽然离开了这个区域。根据“Experts do not know exactly why the Anasazi left.”可知,他们是忽然离开的。suddenly“忽然”。故填(s)uddenly。
57.句意:利用大自然过去的迹象,专家预测这种干旱可能还会持续50年。根据“experts predict...”可知,是根据过去自然界的迹象所提供的线索,预测干旱可能还会持续50年。clue“迹象,线索”,此处用复数。故填(c)lues。
八、任务型阅读
Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)
Dear Mrs Wu,
I love video games and I develop my own games. It’s my favourite hobby. My parents were very encouraging at first. The day I started secondary school, they changed their mind. They now suggest that I give up video games altogether because study should be my priority (优先考虑的事项). What’s more, they don’t even allow me to go out with my friends at night. Every time they do that, I act like I don’t care. But in fact, I am quite angry and upset because they simply have no respect for me and my needs. What can I do?Sincerely yours,
Jason
Dear Jason,
You must be feeling very stressed these days. I’m glad you wrote to me for help. However, you should keep calm and talk to your parents about the benefits of your hobby. I can see why your parents are against video-gaming—it was seen as a useless pastime (娱乐活动) back in the time when your parents were young. The best idea may be to tell them that it is good training for new tech jobs like being a video game developer or drone photographer (无人机摄影师). Also, it is a good way to have a rest after a long school day. Try pointing out real-life examples to them to support your idea. Meanwhile, you should also make sure your hobby doesn’t get in the way of your school performance.
As for your parents’ not allowing you to go out with your friends, it may be a good idea to open up to them about your private life. For example, you can ________. This may help them change their mind. Meanwhile, show them you are a responsible person who understands their worries, and will not let them down. If you can do this, I don’t believe they will be so hard on you. Remember, you mustn’t lose your cool, as that would be immature (不成熟的). Cheers!
Mrs Wu

【答案】Possible version 1:
Studying alone or studying with a group?
Some students like to study alone. Others enjoy studying with a group. As for me, I like studying alone better.
Firstly, studying alone helps me learn to solve problems on my own. Most of the time, I need to think hard about them all by myself. So my thinking ability is improved at the same time. Secondly, when I study alone, I can keep my mind on what I’m doing. With a clear head, I am able to finish my homework quickly. In this way, I will gradually develop a good learning habit.
I think studying alone is really a good way and it will benefit me a lot in my life.
Possible version 2:
Studying alone or studying with a group?
Some students like to study alone. Others enjoy studying with a group. As for me, I prefer to study with a group.
As the saying goes, “Two heads are better than one.” With a group, I can learn a lot from others. Whenever I have some questions, they are always ready to help. With their help, I become more and more confident in my study. Also, when I study with my classmates, we can discuss whatever puzzles me face to face. Through discussion, we can share different ideas and get to know more about each other.
All in all, I think studying with a group provides many chances to improve myself and helps me to be a better person.
