Yet our parents tell us not to blow our nose so hard. Why is that? When we blow our nose very hard, the air can move from our nose to our ears and cause problems. When we have a cold, the tube that connects our nose to our ears gets smaller. So the air can’t go back to the nose and stays in the ear. This can hurt the eardrum (鼓膜) and might make our ears ring or even cause hearing loss. If the things from our nose go into our ears with viruses (病毒) and bacteria (细菌) , it can cause ear infections (感染). If the air from the nose goes into the eyes, it can make the pressure in the eyes go up. This might cause different eye problems and even affect how well we can see in the long run. This is why, sometimes, when you blow your nose too hard, both your eyes and ears may feel uncomfortable. To clear your nose the right way, just close one nostril (鼻孔) at a time and softly blow. If your nose is blocked up, putting a warm towel (毛巾) on your nose and forehead (前额) can also help you feel better. Since your nose and throat are connected, you can also try to get the mucus (粘液) out from your mouth. It’s a good idea to take a deep breath with the nose, then cough quickly to get out the mucus in your mouth. 56. What will happen if you blow your nose too hard? A. You may become blind. B. Your eyes may get an infection. C. You may get a hearing problem. D. The pressure in your ear will go down. 57. What is a good way to clean your nose? A. Clean the mucus in your mouth. B. Breathe deeply and cough quickly. C. Blow with two nostrils at a time. D. Put a towel on your forehead. 58. What does the underlined word “affect” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. influence B. interest C. invent D. introduce 59. What is the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 60. What is the passage mainly about? A. Ways to deal with colds. B. Other illnesses caused by colds. C. Common eye, ear and nose problems. D. Things to know about blowing your nose. 【答案】56. C 57. B 58. A 59. A 60. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了擤鼻子的危害和正确方法。 【56题详解】 细节理解题。根据“This can hurt the eardrum (鼓膜) and might make our ears ring or even cause hearing loss.”可知，如果你用力擤鼻子，可能会伤害鼓膜，导致耳朵响甚至听力损失，因此你可能会遇到听力问题。故选C。 【57题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It’s a good idea to take a deep breath with the nose, then cough quickly to get out the mucus in your mouth.”可知，清洁鼻子的好方法是用鼻子深呼吸，然后把粘液咳出去。故选B。 【58题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“If the air from the nose goes into the eyes, it can make the pressure in the eyes go up. This might cause different eye problems and even affect how well we can see in the long run.”可知，如果空气从鼻子进入眼睛，它会使眼睛的压力上升。这可能会导致不同的眼睛问题，甚至影响到我们的长期视力。因此“affect”表示“影响”。故选A。 【59题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文内容可知，第一段是引入，通过流鼻涕引入了不能太用力擤鼻子的概念；第二段是介绍擤鼻子对于耳朵的危害；第三段是介绍对于眼睛的危害；第四段是要用正确的方法擤鼻子；第五段给到了推荐的方法；因此可以推断，第二段和第三段是相似主题，第四段和第五段也是相似的，所以A选项符合本文结构。故选A。 【60题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文内容可知，本文主要介绍了擤鼻子的危害和正确方法。故选D。 C 配对阅读，左栏是五个人的情况描述，右栏是七本书籍的简介。请将情况描述和书籍简介进行匹配，并将答题卡上对应题目所选的选项涂黑。 ___61___ Bella likes cultural differences and she also likes to read writing articles about books on similar subjects. ___62___ Mrs. Taylor has a l2-year-old daughter who is smart and studies hard.

Ancient Chinese compared time ___66___ many things. The most commonly used saying is probably “光阴似箭, 日月如梭 (Time flies by like an arrow; Days and months flash by as quickly as a weaver's shuttle.)” It is easy to understand the “arrow” part. We all know how fast arrows ___67___. What about a weaver’s shuttle (梭) ? In ancient times, many Chinese people made a ___68___ by growing crops (庄稼) and weaving cloth. Nearly every family ___69___ a loom (织布机). A shuttle is a tool on the loom that moves ___70___ when someone is weaving. Since it was so often seen, ancient Chinese used it in this saying. Another Chinese saying ___71___ the passing of time is “白驹过隙”. It means that time flies by like a white horse ___72___ past a crack (缝隙) in a wall. The saying comes from a book called Zhuangzi. In this book, it is ___73___ that Confucius came to Laozi to ask about the ultimate (终极的) ___74___ of the universe. Laozi told Confucius that a person’s life was as quick as “a white horse running past a crack”. One’s body would die, ___75___ his or her spirit could live on forever. We can learn a lot from Chinese sayings. 【答案】66. to 67. are 68. living 69. had 70. quickly 71. about 72. running 73. said 74. truth 75. but 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了中国有很多与时间有关的谚语，如“光阴似箭，日月如梭”“白驹过隙等。 【66题详解】 句意：古代中国人把时间比作许多事物。根据“compared time...many things”可知，考查compare...to...“把……比作……”，故填to。 【67题详解】 句意：我们都知道箭有多快。根据“how fast arrows”可知，此处缺系动词，结合备选词可知，are“是”符合，故填are。 【68题详解】 句意：在古代，许多中国人以种植庄稼和织布为生。根据“made a...by growing crops (庄稼) and weaving cloth”可知，考查make a living by doing sth.“通过做某事谋生”，live的动名词living“生计”符合。故填living。 【69题详解】 句意：几乎每个家庭都有一台织布机。根据“In ancient times”及“every family...a loom (织布机)”可知，此处缺谓语动词，时态为一般过去时，填动词过去式，have的过去式had“拥有”符合句意。故填had。 【70题详解】 句意：梭子是织布机上的一种工具，当有人在织布时，梭子会快速移动。根据“moves”可知，此处填副词修饰动词，描述梭子的移动速度，结合备选词，quick的副词quickly“快速地”符合句意。故填quickly。 【71题详解】 句意：另一个关于时间流逝的中国谚语是“白驹过隙”。根据“Another Chinese saying...the passing of time”可知，此处指“关于时间流逝”，“关于”可以用“about”来表示，表示涉及或关于某个话题或主题。故填about。 【72题详解】 句意：它的意思是，时间就像白马跑过墙缝一样飞逝而过。根据“白驹过隙”可知，“白驹过隙”用来比喻时间过得很快，而“running”是动词“run”的现在分词形式，表示正在奔跑或运动，符合语境中描述白驹正在快速穿过的场景。故填running。 【73题详解】 句意：在这本书中，据说孔子来到老子那里是为了询问宇宙的终极真理。根据“it is...that”可知，考查it is said that“据说”。故填said。 【74题详解】 句意：在这本书中，据说孔子来到老子那里是为了询问宇宙的终极真理。根据“ask about the ultimate (终极的)...of the universe”可知，此处填名词，结合备选词，true的名词truth“真理”符合句意。故填truth。 【75题详解】 句意：一个人的身体会死亡，但他或她的精神可以永远存在。根据“One’s body would die,...his or her spirit could live on forever.”可知，前后两个句子之间存在转折关系，因此需要用转折连词连接，结合备选词，只有“but”符合语境，表示转折关系。故填but。 六、读写综合（本大题分为A、B两部分，共25分） A. 回答问题 请阅读下面短文，根据所提供的信息，回答5个问题。要求所写答案语法正确、语义完整，并将答案写在答题卡对应题目的答题位置上。 On a sunny afternoon, our school organized a voluntary labor activity in the nearby city park. My classmates and I joined the activity. We were divided into 4 groups and started to work. Each member of our group had a specific role to play. Some collected litter, while others watered the plants. I was part of the group that cleaned the benches (长椅). Cleaning the benches was not an easy job, as they were covered in dirt and stains (污). With brushes and buckets (水桶) of water, we worked hard to clean up them. The labor was hard, but it was also rewarding. The benches shined, the flowers came alive, and the park became clean. We laughed and joked as we worked, making the experience even more enjoyable. At the end of the day, we sat on the clean benches, admiring our work. The park looked beautiful, and we felt a sense of satisfaction. That day, I learned that every little effort counts, and that by doing our part, we can do our best to make our city a better place. Whether it’s cleaning a park or helping others, labor is a powerful force that can change our city parks and enrich our lives. 76.

Yet our parents tell us not to blow our nose so hard. Why is that? When we blow our nose very hard, the air can move from our nose to our ears and cause problems. When we have a cold, the tube that connects our nose to our ears gets smaller. So the air can’t go back to the nose and stays in the ear. This can hurt the eardrum (鼓膜) and might make our ears ring or even cause hearing loss. If the things from our nose go into our ears with viruses (病毒) and bacteria (细菌) , it can cause ear infections (感染). If the air from the nose goes into the eyes, it can make the pressure in the eyes go up. This might cause different eye problems and even affect how well we can see in the long run. This is why, sometimes, when you blow your nose too hard, both your eyes and ears may feel uncomfortable. To clear your nose the right way, just close one nostril (鼻孔) at a time and softly blow. If your nose is blocked up, putting a warm towel (毛巾) on your nose and forehead (前额) can also help you feel better. Since your nose and throat are connected, you can also try to get the mucus (粘液) out from your mouth. It’s a good idea to take a deep breath with the nose, then cough quickly to get out the mucus in your mouth. 56. What will happen if you blow your nose too hard? A. You may become blind. B. Your eyes may get an infection. C. You may get a hearing problem. D. The pressure in your ear will go down. 57. What is a good way to clean your nose? A. Clean the mucus in your mouth. B. Breathe deeply and cough quickly. C. Blow with two nostrils at a time. D. Put a towel on your forehead. 58. What does the underlined word “affect” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. influence B. interest C. invent D. introduce 59. What is the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 60. What is the passage mainly about? A. Ways to deal with colds. B. Other illnesses caused by colds. C. Common eye, ear and nose problems. D. Things to know about blowing your nose. C 配对阅读，左栏是五个人的情况描述，右栏是七本书籍的简介。请将情况描述和书籍简介进行匹配，并将答题卡上对应题目所选的选项涂黑。 ___61___ Bella likes cultural differences and she also likes to read writing articles about books on similar subjects. ___62___ Mrs. Taylor has a l2-year-old daughter who is smart and studies hard.
