In his office, trophies (奖杯) of all sizes and shapes sit on the bookshelves. But recently, Ben surprised me when he said he wanted to throw away all these photos and trophies. I asked him why, and he told me that his business was going through a hard time. The past success, he said, was only making his troubles seem worse. “I feel like they’re laughing at me.” Like Ben, many of us are proud of our success. We put our trophies on our bookshelves to remember those moments of winning and joy forever. But all the great things we get won’t last forever. This understanding can keep us stuck in the past. Then, as Ben found, our trophies might “laugh at” us in the end. Trophies of all kinds make us happy by bringing back happy memories. However we should find joy in what really matters in our lives. We could, for example, keep a diary of happy memories, such as good times with our friends and family. Then, in moments of sadness, we can read through this diary. Honoring our great success is different from remembering the sweet moments in daily life. Let’s say you just lost an important competition. This can hurt a lot. Thinking of happy times with friends can help you through times like these. It shows you that plenty of people still love and value you. Looking at your “Global Student Prize” is probably a bad idea. It might only make you feel worse. Our lives are made up of ups and downs. It’s silly to compare the hard times with the best parts of your past. 16. Why does the writer mention friend Ben in the passage? A. To start a story. B. To lead in a topic. C. To introduce his success. D. To describe their friendship. 17. Why did Ben think these trophies were laughing at him? A. Because Ben was afraid to forget the past. B. Because these trophies only stood for the past. C. Because Ben couldn’t get these trophies any more. D. Because Ben lost confidence when seeing these trophies. 18. Which of the following might the writer agree? A. It’s really important to remember the past success. B. It’s meaningful to compare the downs with the past. C. Remembering our great success can make us proud of ourselves. D. Thinking of the happiness in the past may help us through hard times. 【答案】16. B 17. D 18. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了本在商界非常成功，但他决定扔掉所有奖杯和照片，因为这些过去的荣誉让他在困难时刻感到更糟。通过本的故事，我们应珍惜生活中真正重要的快乐时光，而不是沉迷于过去的成就。 【16题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Like Ben, many of us are proud of our success ... ”和“Trophies of all kinds make us happy by bringing back happy memories. However, we should find joy in what really matters in our lives.”可知，作者提到本与奖杯的故事，是为了引出本文的写作主题。故选B。 【17题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The past success, he said, was only making his troubles seem worse. ‘I feel like they’re laughing at me.’ ”可知，在本看来，过去的成功只会让他的麻烦看起来更糟，他甚至觉得那些象征过去荣誉的奖杯在嘲笑他；由此推知本看到这些奖杯丧失了信心。故选D。 【18题详解】 观点态度题。根据“Let’s say you just lost an important competition. This can hurt a lot. Thinking of happy times with friends can help you through times like these.”可推知，回想过去的快乐可以帮助我们度过困难时期。故选D。 B ①Gardeners and parents always look for how to best care for their plants. Your watering plays a big part here. But which is better for your plants, rainwater or tap water? The best water for your plants depends on your hydration (水合) situation. ②Tap water is quite easy to get, which is its main advantage. If you choose to use it for the convenience, make sure you know where your tap water comes from. ③Tap water is often tested and reaches safety standards. In other places, it may have high levels of chlorine (氯), and others that will harm your plants. Remember that you can always filter (过滤) your tap water to make it safe for plant watering. ④A great reason to use rainwater for your plants is to save water and money. Rainwater may also have higher levels of nitrogen (N₂) when compared to tap water which is good for your plants. ⑤When you use rainwater, you avoid the harmful chemicals altogether and don’t have to worry about filtering them out. This is a big reason why rainwater is often better than tap. ⑥Remember that rainwater does have its disadvantages. The way you collect your rainwater greatly decides how safe it is for your plants. Only collect rainwater using clean collectors to avoid the harmful chemicals. Also, pay special attention to what the collectors are made of. ⑦In the end, rainwater is likely to be better for your plants when collected in a safe way. However, tap water still works well when the chemicals are filtered out. Remember that the most important thing is to keep your plants happy and hydrated. 19. According to the passage, what can we learn about tap water? A. It is necessary for plants. B. It is easy to get in many places. C. It is safe no matter where you get it. D. We can use it to water plants at any time. 20. What could be the best title for the passage? A. Rain water or tap water? B. How to start and plan a garden? C. A guide to grow happy and healthy plants D. Ways to water your plants while you’re away 21. What’s the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】19. B 20. A 21. D 【解析】 【导语】本文探讨的是给植物浇水是用自来水，还是雨水，以及它们各自的优缺点。 【19题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Tap water is quite easy to get”可知，自来水很容易获得。故选B。 【20题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“But which is better for your plants, rainwater or tap water?”可知，本文探讨的是给植物浇水是用自来水，还是雨水，以及它们各自的优缺点；结合选项，A选项“雨水还是自来水？”符合文意。故选A。 【21题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段作者提出疑问：自来水和雨水哪一个用来给植物浇水；第二、三段介绍了自来水的优缺点；第四、五、六段介绍雨水的优缺点；第七段是总结全文。结合选项，D选项符合本文结构。故选D。 C Recently we had a new student start at Gumnut Primary. Her name is Amina. When Mr Yarrum introduced her her eyes were looking down to the ground and her shoulders were curling (弯曲) forward. She was covering her face a little with the scarf on her head. Mr Yarrum helped Amina to put away her school bag and find a table and chair at a shared desk. I could understand Amina, because I was once the new kid at Gumnut Primary too. Two years ago, my mum got a new job in another city, so my family moved and I couldn’t stay at my old school. I have been the same as Amina, being introduced to a class full of new faces. This made me wonder why someone would have to leave their country and move away to the other side of the world. When the bell went for lunch, I waited around to speak with Mr Yarrum. I wanted to know why Amina and her family had moved so far away from their home to Australia. Mr Yarrum told me there was a war in her country, and they moved her to be safe. At lunchtime, I saw Amina sitting by herself on the bench (长椅). She looked lonely, so I decided to go over and sit with her. Amina didn’t speak any English, which made it a bit difficult to communicate with her. This got me thinking, maybe I could use body language to invite Amina to come and play handball with me and my other friends. I waved for her to follow me and gestured (做手势) with my hands a game of handball. ________ Amina turned out to be very good at handball, and by the end of lunch had a big smile on her face. 22. How did Amina feel when Mr Yarrum introduce her to the class? A. Nervous and shy. B. Excited but shy. C. Confident and happy. D. Lonely but hopeful. 23. Which is the correct order of the following activities? ①The writer met Amina. ②The writer invited Amina to play. ③The writer spoke with Mr Yarrum. ④The writer moved to Gumnut Primary. A. ①④②③ B. ①②④③ C. ④①③② D. ④③①② 24. Which of the following is the best to fill in ________ in Paragraph 4? A. She nodded and followed me to the playground. B. She refused and ran away to the classroom. C. She said something and hurried towards Mr Yarrum. D. She looked pale and went back for a rest. 25. What can we infer from the passage? A. Being confident is helpful in a new school. B. Being kind is a good way to communicate with others. C. Developing a good hobby is good for making friends. D. Speaking the same language makes a difference in friendship. 【答案】22. A 23. C 24. A 25. B 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了新生Amina因战乱搬到澳大利亚，起初很害羞孤单。作者通过肢体语言邀请她玩手球，她玩得很开心。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据“When Mr Yarrum introduced her, her eyes were looking down to the ground and her shoulders were curling (弯曲) forward.”可知，Yarrum先生介绍她时，她的眼睛看着地面，肩膀向前弯曲，由此推知Amina当时紧张且害羞。故选A。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据“I could understand Amina, because I was once the new kid at Gumnut Primary too.

Her name is Amina.”可知，然后是遇见Amina，即①；根据“Mr Yarrum told me there was a war in her country, and they moved her to be safe.”可知，接下来是作者和Yarrum说话，即③；根据“maybe I could use body language to invite Amina to come and play handball with me and my other friends.”可知，最后是作者邀请Amina打手球，即②。综上，正确的顺序为④①③②。故选C。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Amina turned out to be very good at handball, and by the end of lunch had a big smile on her face.”可知，Amina手球打得很好，午饭结束时，她脸上挂着灿烂的笑容。由此推知Amina接受了作者一起去打手球的邀请；选项A“她点了点头，跟着我来到操场。”符合语境。故选A。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据“maybe I could use body language to invite Amina to come and play handball with me and my other friends.”和“Amina turned out to be very good at handball, and by the end of lunch had a big smile on her face.”可知，作者看到Amina孤孤单单的一个人，于是邀请她一起去打手球，然后Amina玩得很开心，脸上露出了大大的笑容；由此推知善良是与他人沟通的好方法。故选B。 三、词汇运用(本题有7小题，每小题1分；共计7分) 阅读下面短文，根据括号内所给中文或首字母写出单词的正确形式(每空一词)。 During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Chong was the prefect (太守) of Kuaiji.

In his office, trophies (奖杯) of all sizes and shapes sit on the bookshelves. But recently, Ben surprised me when he said he wanted to throw away all these photos and trophies. I asked him why, and he told me that his business was going through a hard time. The past success, he said, was only making his troubles seem worse. “I feel like they’re laughing at me.” Like Ben, many of us are proud of our success. We put our trophies on our bookshelves to remember those moments of winning and joy forever. But all the great things we get won’t last forever. This understanding can keep us stuck in the past. Then, as Ben found, our trophies might “laugh at” us in the end. Trophies of all kinds make us happy by bringing back happy memories. However, we should find joy in what really matters in our lives. We could, for example, keep a diary of happy memories, such as good times with our friends and family. Then, in moments of sadness, we can read through this diary. Honoring our great success is different from remembering the sweet moments in daily life. Let’s say you just lost an important competition. This can hurt a lot. Thinking of happy times with friends can help you through times like these. It shows you that plenty of people still love and value you. Looking at your “Global Student Prize” is probably a bad idea. It might only make you feel worse. Our lives are made up of ups and downs. It’s silly to compare the hard times with the best parts of your past. 16. Why does the writer mention friend Ben in the passage? A. To start a story. B. To lead in a topic. C. To introduce his success. D. To describe their friendship. 17. Why did Ben think these trophies were laughing at him? A. Because Ben was afraid to forget the past. B. Because these trophies only stood for the past. C. Because Ben couldn’t get these trophies any more. D. Because Ben lost confidence when seeing these trophies. 18 Which of the following might the writer agree? A. It’s really important to remember the past success. B. It’s meaningful to compare the downs with the past. C. Remembering our great success can make us proud of ourselves. D. Thinking of the happiness in the past may help us through hard times. B ①Gardeners and parents always look for how to best care for their plants. Your watering plays a big part here. But which is better for your plants, rainwater or tap water? The best water for your plants depends on your hydration (水合) situation. ②Tap water is quite easy to get, which is its main advantage. If you choose to use it for the convenience, make sure you know where your tap water comes from. ③Tap water is often tested and reaches safety standards. In other places, it may have high levels of chlorine (氯), and others that will harm your plants. Remember that you can always filter (过滤) your tap water to make it safe for plant watering. ④A great reason to use rainwater for your plants is to save water and money. Rainwater may also have higher levels of nitrogen (N₂) when compared to tap water which is good for your plants. ⑤When you use rainwater, you avoid the harmful chemicals altogether and don’t have to worry about filtering them out. This is a big reason why rainwater is often better than tap. ⑥Remember that rainwater does have its disadvantages. The way you collect your rainwater greatly decides how safe it is for your plants. Only collect rainwater using clean collectors to avoid the harmful chemicals. Also, pay special attention to what the collectors are made of. ⑦In the end, rainwater is likely to be better for your plants when collected in a safe way. However, tap water still works well when the chemicals are filtered out. Remember that the most important thing is to keep your plants happy and hydrated. 19.

Her name is Amina. When Mr Yarrum introduced her, her eyes were looking down to the ground and her shoulders were curling (弯曲) forward. She was covering her face a little with the scarf on her head. Mr Yarrum helped Amina to put away her school bag and find a table and chair at a shared desk. I could understand Amina, because I was once the new kid at Gumnut Primary too. Two years ago, my mum got a new job in another city, so my family moved and I couldn’t stay at my old school. I have been the same as Amina, being introduced to a class full of new faces. This made me wonder why someone would have to leave their country and move away to the other side of the world. When the bell went for lunch, I waited around to speak with Mr Yarrum. I wanted to know why Amina and her family had moved so far away from their home to Australia. Mr Yarrum told me there was a war in her country, and they moved her to be safe. At lunchtime, I saw Amina sitting by herself on the bench (长椅). She looked lonely, so I decided to go over and sit with her. Amina didn’t speak any English, which made it a bit difficult to communicate with her. This got me thinking, maybe I could use body language to invite Amina to come and play handball with me and my other friends. I waved for her to follow me and gestured (做手势) with my hands a game of handball. ________ Amina turned out to be very good at handball, and by the end of lunch had a big smile on her face. 22 How did Amina feel when Mr Yarrum introduce her to the class? A. Nervous and shy. B. Excited but shy. C. Confident and happy. D. Lonely but hopeful. 23. Which is the correct order of the following activities? ①The writer met Amina. ②The writer invited Amina to play. ③The writer spoke with Mr Yarrum. ④The writer moved to Gumnut Primary. A. ①④②③ B. ①②④③ C. ④①③② D. ④③①② 24. Which of the following is the best to fill in ________ in Paragraph 4? A. She nodded and followed me to the playground. B. She refused and ran away to the classroom. C. She said something and hurried towards Mr Yarrum. D. She looked pale and went back for a rest. 25. What can we infer from the passage? A. Being confident is helpful in a new school. B. Being kind is a good way to communicate with others. C. Developing a good hobby is good for making friends. D. Speaking the same language makes a difference in friendship. 三、词汇运用(本题有7小题，每小题1分；共计7分) 阅读下面短文，根据括号内所给中文或首字母写出单词的正确形式(每空一词)。 During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Chong was the prefect (太守) of Kuaiji.
