D 信息还原题阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项。 Good basic table manners are important because they help make sure that both guests and hosts are comfortable at the table. Table manners are mostly common sense. Here are some rules that will carry you through most common situations. 61 You may have heard your mother say it many times. You should know that no one likes to see the food in your mouth. Don’t make noises while eating. Making noises is not only unappetizing (倒胃口的), but it can also break others’ conversation. Eat food bit by bit. 62 Don’t cut all of your meat at one time. This can remind people of feeding small children and the mess related to this situation. Eat at a leisurely pace(悠闲地). This rule shows your host that you enjoy the food and the company (陪伴). 63 It shows that you’re only paying attention to the food and that you would rather be at home watching the grass grow than spend the time with your host. Don’t stand and reach for food far from you. You are not supposed to get in the way of people either eating or talking. 64 Don’t forget “please” and “thank you”. These are useful words in most situations and especially important at the table. 65 You don’t want people to think that you are tired of their company. If you must leave the table, make your excuses clearly. You want to make people think that you would rather remain at the table talking with them than do anything else, but the matter at hand is so important that it must be dealt with at once. Compliment (称赞) the cook. Even if the food is terrible, say something nice. It is always pleasant to end a meal in a positive way. 第II卷 （非选择题，共60分） 五、词汇应用（共10小题；每小题1分，计10分，每空一词） 根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。 （每空一词） 66.

According to historical records, the first oil-paper umbrella came out during the Eastern Han Dynasty. They soon became very popular, especially among the literati (文人). They loved to write and draw on the umbrella to show their literacy tastes and painting skills. Oil-paper umbrellas are a necessary part of traditional Chinese weddings (婚礼). A red oil-paper umbrella is needed when the bride (新娘) goes into the groom’s home. That’s because people believe the umbrella can help stop bad luck. Also, the sound of oil-paper in Chinese sounds like “youzi”, which means having more children. It takes quite a lot of time and effort to make a Chinese oil-paper umbrella by hand. Luzhou in southwest China’s Sichuan Province is now the only main production place for handmade oil-paper umbrellas in China. There, craftsmen (手艺人) must complete more than 90 steps and use over 100 different tools to make a single umbrella. With all their efforts, a traditional oil-paper umbrella made in Luzhou can stand strong winds and 3,000 openings and closings. 76.Do people use oil-paper umbrellas on sunny days? ___________________________________________________ 77.When did the first oil-paper umbrella appear? ___________________________________________________ 78.Why did the literati (文人) love to write and draw on the umbrella? ___________________________________________________ 79.How many times can an oil-paper umbrella made by hand in Luzhou open and close? ___________________________________________________ 80.What do you think of the oil-paper umbrella? ___________________________________________________ 七、缺词填空（共10空；每空1分，计10分） 根据短文内容和首字母提示，在下文空格处填入适当的词使短文完整，完整地写出空缺处各单词的正 确形式。（每空一词） My name is Huckleberry Finn.

Table manners are mostly common sense. Here are some rules that will carry you through most common situations. 61 You may have heard your mother say it many times. You should know that no one likes to see the food in your mouth. Don’t make noises while eating. Making noises is not only unappetizing (倒胃口的), but it can also break others’ conversation. Eat food bit by bit. 62 Don’t cut all of your meat at one time. This can remind people of feeding small children and the mess related to this situation. Eat at a leisurely pace(悠闲地). This rule shows your host that you enjoy the food and the company (陪伴). 63 It shows that you’re only paying attention to the food and that you would rather be at home watching the grass grow than spend the time with your host. Don’t stand and reach for food far from you. You are not supposed to get in the way of people either eating or talking. 64 Don’t forget “please” and “thank you”. These are useful words in most situations and especially important at the table. 65 You don’t want people to think that you are tired of their company. If you must leave the table, make your excuses clearly. You want to make people think that you would rather remain at the table talking with them than do anything else, but the matter at hand is so important that it must be dealt with at once. Compliment (称赞) the cook. Even if the food is terrible, say something nice. It is always pleasant to end a meal in a positive way. A. Excuse yourself when leaving the table. B. Don’t speak with your mouth full of food. C. Eating quickly is a sign of disrespect for the host. D. You’d better not put your elbows（手肘）on the dinner table. E.

They are not just tools (工具) to keep people away from rain or sunlight, but also works of art with rich cultural meaning in China. Chinese oil-paper umbrellas are one of the world’s oldest umbrellas. According to historical records, the first oil-paper umbrella came out during the Eastern Han Dynasty. They soon became very popular, especially among the literati (文人). They loved to write and draw on the umbrella to show their literacy tastes and painting skills. Oil-paper umbrellas are a necessary part of traditional Chinese weddings (婚礼). A red oil-paper umbrella is needed when the bride (新娘) goes into the groom’s home. That’s because people believe the umbrella can help stop bad luck. Also, the sound of oil-paper in Chinese sounds like “youzi”, which means having more children. It takes quite a lot of time and effort to make a Chinese oil-paper umbrella by hand. Luzhou in southwest China’s Sichuan Province is now the only main production place for handmade oil-paper umbrellas in China. There, craftsmen (手艺人) must complete more than 90 steps and use over 100 different tools to make a single umbrella. With all their efforts, a traditional oil-paper umbrella made in Luzhou can stand strong winds and 3,000 openings and closings. 76.Do people use oil-paper umbrellas on sunny days? ___________________________________________________ 77.When did the first oil-paper umbrella appear? ___________________________________________________ 78.Why did the literati (文人) love to write and draw on the umbrella? ___________________________________________________ 79.How many times can an oil-paper umbrella made by hand in Luzhou open and close? ___________________________________________________ 80.What do you think of the oil-paper umbrella? ___________________________________________________ 七、缺词填空（共10空；每空1分，计10分） 根据短文内容和首字母提示，在下文空格处填入适当词使短文完整，完整地写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。（每空一词） My name is Huckleberry Finn.

B.书面表达范文： My Low­-carbon Life We are facing many environmental problems now. For example, too much use of plastic bags has caused serious white pollution. The waste water flowing into the river not only pollutes the environment but also does harm to people’s health.As students, we should do our part to live a lower-carbon life. First of all, we can walk or ride a bike instead of driving. It’s good for our health and it doesn’t cost anything. Second, we are expected to turn off the taps and lights when we don’t use them. Third, remember to go shopping with a reusable bag rather than plastic bags. In short, simple things in our daily life can make a big difference and lead to a better world and a happier life.
