Later, as there were no mice anymore, the cats were so hungry that they miaowed all the time. ♦ Year after year, the cats multiplied (繁殖). As they ate meat every day they even didn’t know there were mice which could be eaten in the world. They miaowed whenever they were hungry. And once they miaowed, Shu would feed them with meat. After that, they had nothing to do all day. In the south of the city, one house was full of mice. Once a mouse happened to fall into a jar (罐子). The owner of the house hurried to Shu’s home to borrow a cat to catch the mouse. When the cat saw the mouse in the jar, it didn’t know what kind of monster (怪物) the mouse was. It only followed the mouse moving around on the mouth of the jar, and dared (敢于) not get into it. The owner was angry and pushed the cat down into the jar. At this moment, the cat was very afraid and shouted loudly at the mouse. After a while, the mouse finally found this cat was afraid, so it bit (咬) the cat’s tail. The cat was so afraid that it tried its best to jump out of the jar and ran away. From then on, Shu never fed his cats with meat. 49. The passage is probably a __________.

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 (管) between our nose to our ears gets smaller. So the air can’t go back to the nose and stays in the ear. This might make our ears ring or even cause hearing loss. If the things from our nose go into our ears with viruses (病毒), it can cause ear problems. 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. So, what can we do to avoid those problems? How to clear your nose better? On the one hand, you can just close one nostril (鼻孔) at a time and softly blow. If your nose is blocked up, putting a piece of warm cloth on your nose can also help you feel better. On the other hand, 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. 53. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 2 refer to (指代)? A. The air stays in the ear. B. The air goes back to the nose. C. The pressure in the eyes goes up. D. Things from our nose go into our ears. 54. What can you do to make your nose more comfortable? Check and choose the right answers. a. Blow your nose very hard. b. Blow two nostrils at a time. c. Breathe deeply and cough quickly. d. Put a piece of warm cloth on your nose. e. Clean the mucus in your mouth. A. bcd B. abc C. cde D. ade 55. Which of the following best shows the structure (结构) of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1) A. B. C. D. 56. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Hearing Illnesses B. Blow Your Nose Softly C. Eye And Nose Problems D. Ways To Deal with Colds 【答案】53. A 54. C 55. B 56. B 【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。 【53题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“So the air can’t go back to the nose and stays in the ear. This might make our ears ring or even cause hearing loss.”因此空气无法回到鼻子，只能留在耳朵里。这可能会让我们的耳朵嗡嗡作响，甚至导致听力丧失。可知this代指的是“空气停留在耳朵里”。故选A。 【54题详解】 细节理解题。根据“you can just close one nostril (鼻孔) at a time and softly blow. If your nose is blocked up, putting a piece of warm cloth on your nose can also help you feel better. On the other hand, since your nose and throat are connected, you can also try to get the mucus (粘液) out from your mouth.”你可以一次堵住一个鼻孔，然后轻轻擤鼻涕。如果你的鼻子被堵住了，在鼻子上放一块温热的布也能让你感​​觉好些。另一方面，由于你的鼻子和喉咙是相连的，你也可以试着把嘴里的粘液弄出来。所以选项c“深呼吸并快速咳嗽”，d“在鼻子上放一块温布”，e“清理口腔里的黏液”符合。故选C。 【55题详解】 篇章结构题。根据本文内容可知，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；第二段是擤鼻子对于耳朵的危害；第三段是对于眼睛的危害；第四段是要用正确的方法擤鼻子，也提供了推荐的方法；因此可以推断，第二段和第三段是相似主题，所以B选项符合本文结构。故选B。 【56题详解】 最佳标题。本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了擤鼻子的危害和正确方法。选项B“轻轻擤鼻涕”最符合。故选B。 D Children and parents often have trouble understanding each other. Sometimes, kids think their parents are unfair to them. When you want to dress in a modern way, your mum doesn’t like you wearing a mini-skirt. When you are making phone calls to friends, they ask if you’re speaking to a boy or a girl. Sometimes it seems that you’re not as close to your parents as you used to be. How can you become close again? Closing the Gap by American writer Jay McGraw gives advice on how to have a better relation with your parents. ①____________ Do not depend on your diary too much to share your trouble. You should take time to talk with your parents. You could talk about your school life and your plans for the future. Expert Carl E. Pickhardt believes sharing feelings with our parents can lead to positive changes, while not sharing them can cause misunderstandings (误解). ②____________ Do something nice or helpful for your parents. For example, wash your own clothes, help them with some home chores, make them gifts or teach them some computer skills. Your parents will feel that you are no longer a small child. Then their trust in you will grow. ③____________ If you want your parents to give you more freedom (自由), you should show them that you’re ready to be treated differently. For example, learn to use self-control like an adult. Show them that you can plan your time well. If you follow these steps, slowly, you will be able to break down the walls between your parents and yourself. 57. What’s the theme (主题) of the passage? A. Science. B. Health. C. Family. D. School. 58. What does the underlined word “positive” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Good. B. Clear. C. Crazy. D. Unfair. 59. Match the title with each paragraph. a. Care for your parents b. Keep a diary c. Act like an adult d. Open your heart e. Cook for your parents A. ①-b, ②-a, ③-c B. ①-d, ②-a, ③-c C. ①-d, ②-c, ③-e D. ①-c, ②-b, ③-e 60. What is the writer’s purpose (目的) according to the passage? A. To ask students to listen to their parents. B. To let students read the book Closing the Gap. C. To tell students the importance of helping with housework. D. To give students advice to get along better with their parents. 【答案】57. C 58. A 59. B 60. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了孩子和父母之间的关系问题，并提供了一些建议来改善这种关系。 【57题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，本文主要讨论的是家庭关系问题，尤其是孩子和父母之间的关系。故选C。 【58题详解】 词义猜测题。根据上下文语境，特别是“sharing feelings with our parents can lead to positive changes”可知，分享感受可以带来积极的变化，因此“positive”在这里的意思是“好的”。故选A。 【59题详解】 标题归纳题。根据每段的内容，①段主要讲述的是要敞开心扉与父母交流；②段讲述的是要关心父母；③段讲述的是要表现得像个成年人。因此选项B的搭配正确。故选B。 【60题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Closing the Gap by American writer Jay McGraw gives advice on how to have a better relation with your parents.”可知，作者的目的是给学生提供一些建议，以便他们能更好地与父母相处。故选D。 请先阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后根据短文内容从下面方框内的七个选项中选择五个还原到文中，使短文意思通顺，结构完整，并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑。一空一句。 Have you ever been to an art museum?

They caught and ate all the mice in the house. Later, as there were no mice anymore, the cats were so hungry that they miaowed all the time. ♦ Year after year, the cats multiplied (繁殖). As they ate meat every day they even didn’t know there were mice which could be eaten in the world. They miaowed whenever they were hungry. And once they miaowed, Shu would feed them with meat. After that, they had nothing to do all day. In the south of the city, one house was full of mice. Once a mouse happened to fall into a jar (罐子). The owner of the house hurried to Shu’s home to borrow a cat to catch the mouse. When the cat saw the mouse in the jar, it didn’t know what kind of monster (怪物) the mouse was. It only followed the mouse moving around on the mouth of the jar, and dared (敢于) not get into it. The owner was angry and pushed the cat down into the jar. At this moment, the cat was very afraid and shouted loudly at the mouse. After a while, the mouse finally found this cat was afraid, so it bit (咬) the cat’s tail. The cat was so afraid that it tried its best to jump out of the jar and ran away. From then on, Shu never fed his cats with meat. 49. The passage is probably a __________. A. science report B. short play C. folk story D. news report 50. Choose the best sentence to fill in the blank “ ♦ ” in Paragraph 2. A. Finally all the mice died. B. Shu decided to send them to his neighbors. C. They made so much noise that Shu hated them. D. Shu had no way but to buy meat to feed them every day. 51. Put the things about Shu and his cats in the correct order. a. Shu lent a cat to someone to catch the mouse. b. Shu kept over 100 cats in his home. c. The mouse bit the cat’s tail. d. The cats ate meat every day. A. b-a-c-d B. b-d-a-c C. a-b-c-d D. a-b-d-c 52. What can we learn from the passage? A. Man should be kind to all animals. B. It’s comman for the weak to beat the strong. C. While strong, you need to keep on studying. D. A cat can always be proud in front of a mouse. C We usually have a runny nose when catching a cold. 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 (管) between our nose to our ears gets smaller. So the air can’t go back to the nose and stays in the ear. This might make our ears ring or even cause hearing loss. If the things from our nose go into our ears with viruses (病毒), it can cause ear problems. 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. So, what can we do to avoid those problems? How to clear your nose better? On the one hand, you can just close one nostril (鼻孔) at a time and softly blow. If your nose is blocked up, putting a piece of warm cloth on your nose can also help you feel better. On the other hand, 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. 53. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 2 refer to (指代)? A. The air stays in the ear. B. The air goes back to the nose. C. The pressure in the eyes goes up. D. Things from our nose go into our ears. 54. What can you do to make your nose more comfortable? Check and choose the right answers. a. Blow your nose very hard. b. Blow two nostrils at a time. c. Breathe deeply and cough quickly. d. Put a piece of warm cloth on your nose. e. Clean the mucus in your mouth. A bcd B. abc C. cde D. ade 55. Which of the following best shows the structure (结构) of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1) A. B. C. D. 56. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Hearing Illnesses B. Blow Your Nose Softly C. Eye And Nose Problems D. Ways To Deal with Colds D Children and parents often have trouble understanding each other. Sometimes, kids think their parents are unfair to them. When you want to dress in a modern way, your mum doesn’t like you wearing a mini-skirt. When you are making phone calls to friends, they ask if you’re speaking to a boy or a girl. Sometimes it seems that you’re not as close to your parents as you used to be. How can you become close again? Closing the Gap by American writer Jay McGraw gives advice on how to have a better relation with your parents. ①____________ Do not depend on your diary too much to share your trouble. You should take time to talk with your parents. You could talk about your school life and your plans for the future. Expert Carl E. Pickhardt believes sharing feelings with our parents can lead to positive changes, while not sharing them can cause misunderstandings (误解). ②____________ Do something nice or helpful for your parents. For example, wash your own clothes, help them with some home chores, make them gifts or teach them some computer skills. Your parents will feel that you are no longer a small child. Then their trust in you will grow. ③____________ If you want your parents to give you more freedom (自由), you should show them that you’re ready to be treated differently. For example, learn to use self-control like an adult. Show them that you can plan your time well. If you follow these steps, slowly, you will be able to break down the walls between your parents and yourself. 57. What’s the theme (主题) of the passage? A. Science. B. Health. C. Family. D. School. 58. What does the underlined word “positive” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Good. B. Clear. C. Crazy. D. Unfair. 59. Match the title with each paragraph. a. Care for your parents b. Keep a diary c.

To give students advice to get along better with their parents. 请先阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后根据短文内容从下面方框内的七个选项中选择五个还原到文中，使短文意思通顺，结构完整，并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑。一空一句。 Have you ever been to an art museum?
