I named him Polly. Like any young kid would be, I was excited to have a new friend. After a few weeks, however, the feeling of excitement wore off. It’s no big surprise that, being a kid, I was not prepared for the huge responsibility (责任) for taking care of Polly. Neither were my parents. Polly had to live his whole life in a small , dirty cage (笼子). Unable to move his wings freely, he was bored out of his mind. The bird ended up living a much shorter life than he would have done in the wild. It’s a sad story, but it’s a story that has been all too common. No bird was born to live in a cage, yet millions are kept behind bars (栅栏). Most of these birds are improperly cared for and die young. Many people buy pet birds without thinking much, as my family did. They have no idea how much time, money and energy will be needed to care for the birds. When the birds that seemed so cute and beautiful in pet stores turn out to be noisy, many are left out. Some birds can even go mad because of the boredom and loneliness they end up feeling. They may pull out their own feathers or peck (啄) over and over again at the bars of their cage. How can you help? Well, it’s very simple. Please never buy a caged bird. Never support any businesses that keep caged birds as “decorations (装饰品)”. Let more people know that birds should live freely in nature and that they never belong in cages. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 11. What do the underlined words “wore off” mean? A. Suddenly got worse. B. Suddenly ran high. C. Surprisingly showed up. D. Slowly disappeared. 12. Which paragraph gives information about how Polly lived his life in the cage? A. Paragraph 2. B. Paragraph 3. C. Paragraph 4. D. Paragraph 5. 13. How does the writer feel when he shares the story of Polly? A. Afraid. B. Proud. C. Sorry. D. Glad. 14. What happens to most caged birds according to the text? A. They are treated badly and die young. B. They live happily with their new family. C. They become the best decoration of the house. D. They are remembered forever by their owners. 15. What’s the best title of the text? A. How I Miss Dear Polly B. How to Keep a Pet Bird C. Say No to Caged Birds D. Where to Find Cockatiels 【答案】11. D 12. B 13. C 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了作者养鹦鹉的经历，告诉我们不应该把鸟关在笼子里，应该给鸟自由。 【11题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“Like any young kid would be, I was excited to have a new friend. After a few weeks, however, the feeling of excitement wore off”可知，就像任何一个小孩子一样，我很高兴有了一个新朋友，然而，几周后，兴奋的感觉消失了，故此处划线部分意为“慢慢消失”。故选D。 【12题详解】 段落大意题。根据“Polly had to live his whole life in a small, dirty cage”可知，第三段主要介绍了Polly在笼子里的生活。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据“It’s a sad story,”可知，Polly故事是一个悲伤的故事，可推知作者应该很抱歉。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Many of these birds are improperly cared for and die young.”可知，很多鸟受到虐待，在很小的时候就死了。故选A。 【15题详解】 最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了作者养鹦鹉的经历，告诉我们不应该把鸟关在笼子里，应该给鸟自由，以选项C“对笼中的鸟说不”为标题最合适。故选C。 D Close your eyes and think of a world without the electric light bulb (电灯泡).

It’s not too far from here.”可知，空处应是给出了骑自行车的好处，可以说“是一种好的锻炼”或“对身体健康有益”或“可以帮助我们强身健体”等。故填Riding a bike is a kind of good exercise/Riding a bike is good for our health/the environ-ment/Riding a bike can help build us up/... 六、书面表达(20分) 56. 进入初中两年来，你收获并成长了很多，学校演讲社团即将举行主题为“十四岁的青春仪式”演讲比赛。你将以“How to be a good teenager”为题进行演讲，请根据下表提示写一篇英语演讲稿。要点如下： good manners 1. in public places... 2. in the school library and dining hall... study hard read more books because... … life be kind… care for people... 注意： 1. 词数100左右（开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数）； 2. 不要逐句翻译，句意连贯、语法正确、要点齐全、书写工整。必须包含以上要点，请适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 How to be a good teenager Dear friends, It is my great honor to make a speech for you. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ That’s all.

B No Baking Required (必需的) Max came home from school, excited to eat his dad’s famous chocolate oatmeal (燕麦片) cookies. He really wanted to eat them and had asked his dad to make them for two weeks. Finally, his dad had a day off, and he told Max he would make the cookies. But Max was disappointed. Wouldn’t you know that today, of all days, the oven (烤炉) would not heat up! Max was thirsty for chocolate. He just had to have some chocolate cookies. Angrily, Max lay down on the sofa. Max’s dad handed a cookbook to Max. He told Max to stop being angry and start looking through the cookbook. Max’s dad told him to look and see if there was any-thing they could make without using the oven. Max didn’t agree with the idea but looked through the cookbook anyway. What do you know? Max found a chocolate oatmeal cookie recipe (食谱) that did not need baking! The recipe was called “No-Bake Cookie”. Max and his dad decided the recipe was worth (值得) a try. Max and his dad read the recipe together. Then his dad told Max to get out a pan. Max’s dad got out the necessary ingredients (食材), a big spoon, several cups, and some special paper for cookies. Max’s dad told him to put 1/2 cup of milk, 1/4 cup of butter,4 spoons of cocoa, and 2 cups of sugar in a pan. Then Max’s dad mixed them together and boiled them on medium-high heat for one minute. Later, Max’s dad added 1/2 cup of butter and 2 cups of oatmeal. Finally, the special cookies were made. Max and his dad could not wait to try these interesting cookies once they had cooled! The moment arrived. Max and his dad each ate a small piece of the “No-Bake Cookie”. Delicious! Max was actually kind of glad the oven was broken! Now his dad and he had a new treat to make. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 6. What was the problem when Max’s father started to cook? A. There weren’t enough ingredients at home. B.

A report. D. An interview. C When I was nine years old, my parents bought me a cockatiel from a local pet store. I named him Polly. Like any young kid would be, I was excited to have a new friend. After a few weeks, however, the feeling of excitement wore off. It’s no big surprise that, being a kid, I was not prepared for the huge responsibility (责任) for taking care of Polly. Neither were my parents. Polly had to live his whole life in a small , dirty cage (笼子). Unable to move his wings freely, he was bored out of his mind. The bird ended up living a much shorter life than he would have done in the wild. It’s a sad story, but it’s a story that has been all too common. No bird was born to live in a cage, yet millions are kept behind bars (栅栏). Most of these birds are improperly cared for and die young. Many people buy pet birds without thinking much, as my family did. They have no idea how much time, money and energy will be needed to care for the birds. When the birds that seemed so cute and beautiful in pet stores turn out to be noisy, many are left out. Some birds can even go mad because of the boredom and loneliness they end up feeling. They may pull out their own feathers or peck (啄) over and over again at the bars of their cage. How can you help? Well, it’s very simple. Please never buy a caged bird. Never support any businesses that keep caged birds as “decorations (装饰品)”. Let more people know that birds should live freely in nature and that they never belong in cages. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 11. What do the underlined words “wore off” mean? A. Suddenly got worse. B. Suddenly ran high. C. Surprisingly showed up. D. Slowly disappeared. 12. Which paragraph gives information about how Polly lived his life in the cage? A. Paragraph 2. B. Paragraph 3. C. Paragraph 4. D. Paragraph 5. 13 How does the writer feel when he shares the story of Polly? A. Afraid. B. Proud. C. Sorry. D. Glad. 14. What happens to most caged birds according to the text? A. They are treated badly and die young. B. They live happily with their new family. C. They become the best decoration of the house. D. They are remembered forever by their owners. 15. What’s the best title of the text? A. How I Miss Dear Polly B. How to Keep a Pet Bird C. Say No to Caged Birds D. Where to Find Cockatiels D Close your eyes and think of a world without the electric light bulb (电灯泡). How would life be different? What would you use to give light? Thomas Edison made our homes and cities bright. ____16____ Before that, people used to light their homes with candles and oil lamps (油灯).

So she had an idea to teach him at home. C. But he made it become better than before. D. He invented the electric light bulb. E.
