A. an; / B. an; the C. a; / D. a; the 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你认识彭敏吗？——是的，他击败了11岁的男孩韩亚轩，并在2月9日的《中国诗词大会》第五季中获得第一名。 考查冠词的用法。an表泛指，一个，用于元音音素开头的单词之前；/不填；a表泛指，一个，用于辅音音素开头的单词之前；the表特指。由“…11-year-old boy”可知，此处表示“一位11岁的男孩”，表泛指，且11对应的英文eleven是以元音音素开头的，故第一空填an，排除C和D；come first“第一”，first是副词，前不加冠词。故选A。 22. The girl with her family lives in a town ___________ here. A. 15 miles away B. 15 miles far away C. 15 miles from D. 15-mile away from 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：那个女孩和她的家人住在离这里15英里的镇上。 考查距离的表达。根据“a town…here”和选项可知，表示离这儿15英里远的小镇，用“距离+away from”，away可以省略，但是from不能省略，排除A和B；选项D在句中只能作定语，来修饰名词，在本题中15 miles away from here在句中充当的是状语，那么就得分开写，不能用这种连写的方式，所以D选项不能选。故选C。 23. The local people, _________ my brother, __________ jogging in the park in the morning. A. like; likes B. like; like C. likes; like D. likes; likes 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：当地人，比如我哥哥，喜欢早上在公园里慢跑。 考查like的用法。like动词，喜欢；介词，像。分析第一处，表示“像”；第二处表示“喜欢”，like doing sth.“喜欢做某事”，主语“The local people”是复数，所以谓语动词用原形。故选B。 24. —Suzy, what are your neighbours like? —________. A. Most of them are famous engineers B. They like helping us with our problems C. They often meet at the community centre D. All of them are very kind and helpful 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——苏西，你的邻居怎么样？——他们都非常善良和乐于助人。 考查情景交际。Most of them are famous engineers他们大多是著名的工程师；They like helping us with our problems他们喜欢帮助我们解决问题；They often meet at the community centre他们经常在社区中心见面；All of them are very kind and helpful他们都非常友善和乐于助人。根据“what are your neighbours like”可知，此处是询问邻居们的性格、品格特征。故选D。 25. —________ you tired after swimming for half an hour? —No. I ________ feel tired at all. A. Were; didn’t B. Was; wasn’t C. Did; wasn’t D. Was; didn’t 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你游了半小时后，你累了吗？——没有我一点也不觉得累。 考查be动词和助动词。根据“you tired”可知，此处是系表结构，空一处用be动词，主语是you，时态是一般过去时，be用were；根据“feel tired”可知，feel是谓语动词，时态是一般过去时，否定句借助助动词didn’t。故选A。 26. Our Chinese teacher not only teaches ________ Chinese and also a friend of ________. A. our; us B. our; ours C. us; us D. us; ours 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们的语文老师不仅教我们汉语，也是我们的朋友。 考查代词辨析。our我们的，形容词性物主代词；us我们，人称代词宾格；ours我们的，名词性物主代词。根据“Our Chinese teacher not only teaches…Chinese”可知，teach sb. sth.“教某人某物”，动词后要用人称代词宾格作宾语，排除A、B项；再根据“a friend of…”可知，“名词+of+名词性物主代词”构成双重所有格，因此第二空要用名词性物主代词ours。故选D。 27. We hope there ________ a war in the world. Everyone can live a happy life. A. will not have B. will be not C. is not going to be D. is not going to have 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们希望世界上将没有战争。每个人都过着幸福的生活。 考查there be结构的一般将来时态。此处应用一般将来时的否定形式，表达“将没有”。there be结构不能与have连用，故排除选项A和D，there be结构的一般将来时的否定形式为there is not going to be/there will not be。故选C。 28. —_________ is it from your school to Golden Eagle Shopping mall? —It’s a ________ ride. A. How long; 5 minutes’ B. How far; 5-minutes C. How far; 5-minute D. How long; 5-minute 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——从你们学校到金鹰购物中心有多远？——5分钟车程。 考查特殊疑问词及数词表达。How far多远，提问距离；How long多久，提问时间段；5 minutes’5分钟的；5-minute5分钟的，作定语。由“It’s a…ride”可知，此处是问距离，排除A和D；数字表达有连字符名词无s，选项B表达错误。故选C。 29. Oh, I think the door is too small for the bookshelf to go ________. Do you agree with me? A. past B. through C. over D. across 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：哦，我想这扇门太小了，书架过不去。你同意我的看法吗？ 考查介词辨析。past从旁边经过；through从中间穿过；over穿越，从一边到另一边；across从表面穿过。根据“ I think the door is too small for the bookshelf to go…”可知，是书架从门中间穿过，因此应用through。故选B。 30. —I visited Yandu Park last Sunday. —__________ Why didn’t you tell me earlier? A. You did? B. I hope so. C. Have a good time. D. It’s kind of you. 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我上星期天参观了盐渎公园。——你去了？你为什么不早点告诉我？ 考查情景交际。You did你去了；I hope so我希望如此；Have a good time玩得开心点；It’s kind of you你真好。根据“Why didn’t you tell me earlier”可知，应该是表示惊讶，选项A符合语境。故选A。 三、完形填空（共10小题，每小题1分，计10分） If you want to buy books, you will go into a bookshop and pick up a book.

He hasn’t got a father. He hasn’t got any brothers or sisters. And he hasn’t got a pet. He likes cats, but his mother says he can’t have one. She says they can’t have a cat because they haven’t got a garden. David thinks his mother simply doesn’t want a cat. A boy in his class lives in a flat and he has a cat. And David knows that pirates have cats, and they haven’t got gardens! But in a way he doesn’t mind. He doesn’t feel lonely. His head is full of explorers, gangsters, astronauts, cowboys, native Americans and secret agents. “Eat your breakfast quickly, love,” says his mum. She is making his lunch. She works at the hospital and she is wearing her nurse’s uniform. She starts work in half an hour and she is in a hurry. “OK,” David replies, starting to eat his cereal. His mother looks quite serious. He knows she worries about him a lot. “Sorry, I’m late, Mum.” “That’s all right,” she says, and smiles. “Now don’t forget your sandwiches,” she says. “Don’t worry.” But ten minutes later, when David runs out of the front door to catch the bus, his lunch is still on the table. And then David misses the bus. He waits another fifteen minutes for the next one. When it arrives, he gets on and goes up the stairs to sit on the top floor. He sees that he is the only person on the bus wearing a blue sweatshirt and grey trousers—the uniform of Westbourne High School. He's very late. David likes looking out of the window at the cars, the people, the shops and houses. He soon sees two boys. They aren’t wearing school uniforms. A boy with red hair is riding a bicycle, and the other one is running beside him. They are laughing. “That’s odd,” thinks David. “They aren’t going towards a school. Maybe they have a day off ... Lucky them!” (From David and the Great Detective) 51. How many family members are there in David’s family now? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 52. Why doesn’t David keep a cat as a pet at home?

C The River Thames is the longest river in England and the second longest in the United Kingdom, after the River Severn. But the Thames is the most famous.

Some of the best-known places in London are by the Thames: the Big Ben clock on the north side of the river; the London Eye on the south side, with its view（风景）of the city; and St Paul’s Cathedral（圣保罗大教堂）, which had to be built again after the Great Fire of London in 1666. Some of the many bridges over the River Thames are also famous: Westminster Bridge, Tower Bridge and Millennium Bridge. It’s famous for art, too. Some of the UK’s most well-known artists have painted the Thames, including Turner and Constable in the 18th and 19th centuries.

He hasn’t got a father. He hasn’t got any brothers or sisters. And he hasn’t got a pet. He likes cats, but his mother says he can’t have one. She says they can’t have a cat because they haven’t got a garden. David thinks his mother simply doesn’t want a cat. A boy in his class lives in a flat and he has a cat. And David knows that pirates have cats, and they haven’t got gardens! But in a way he doesn’t mind. He doesn’t feel lonely. His head is full of explorers, gangsters, astronauts, cowboys, native Americans and secret agents. “Eat your breakfast quickly, love,” says his mum. She is making his lunch. She works at the hospital and she is wearing her nurse’s uniform. She starts work in half an hour and she is in a hurry. “OK,” David replies, starting to eat his cereal. His mother looks quite serious. He knows she worries about him a lot. “Sorry, I’m late, Mum.” “That’s all right,” she says, and smiles. “Now don’t forget your sandwiches,” she says. “Don’t worry.” But ten minutes later, when David runs out of the front door to catch the bus, his lunch is still on the table. And then David misses the bus. He waits another fifteen minutes for the next one. When it arrives, he gets on and goes up the stairs to sit on the top floor. He sees that he is the only person on the bus wearing a blue sweatshirt and grey trousers—the uniform of Westbourne High School. He's very late. David likes looking out of the window at the cars, the people, the shops and houses. He soon sees two boys. They aren’t wearing school uniforms. A boy with red hair is riding a bicycle, and the other one is running beside him. They are laughing. “That’s odd,” thinks David. “They aren’t going towards a school. Maybe they have a day off ... Lucky them!” (From David and the Great Detective) 51. How many family members are there in David’s family now? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 52. Why doesn’t David keep a cat as a pet at home?
