Try and answer the questions below. ·Which animals are most in danger and why? ·What can we do to protect them? Now check your answers and find out more. 10 million reptiles (爬行动物) are killed every year. Their skin (皮肤) is used to make fashion items (商品), like handbags and shoes. The main reason whales are in danger is that man kills them for their meat and oil. Orangutans (猩猩)live in rainforests. They want to live in peace, but people are cutting down the trees for wood and farming. This is a big problem because the trees are the orangutan’s homes. They are very difficult to find and study because they are shy animals. They are also our cousins! There isn’t enough bamboo for pandas to eat because man has cut down nearly half the bamboo forests. Research has shown that there are only about 600 pandas left in the wild in the world. Most of them live in China. The skin of the turtle (龟) is used to make some jewellery (首饰) . Some people steal (偷) the turtle’s eggs to eat. In the Far East, people use the horns (角) of rhinoceros (犀牛) to make machines. They also use them to make ornaments (装饰物) . 43.

What is their best advice for those future girl bosses (老板)? “Start small and remember to never give up. It takes a lot of hard work and sometimes you will make mistakes but keep trying. ___50___” Come on, girls! A. You will learn a lot, for sure. B. So you can mix and match as you wish. C.

We called him Dr. Gabs.”可知，他是一名医生，因此认为他会救命，故选C。 【53题详解】 句意：他说他想在他的房子周围造一片森林。 factory工厂；forest森林；farm农场；school学校。根据“he was planting trees”可知，他在种树，因此表示要建造一片森林，故选B。 【54题详解】 句意：但是他种树的方式很有趣——他从不给他的新种的浇水。 boring无聊的；exciting令人兴奋的；tiring令人疲劳的；interesting有趣的。根据“he never watered his new trees.”可知，他从不给他的新种的浇水，因此这是非常有趣的事，故选D。 【55题详解】 句意：当我问他为什么时，他总是说：“浇水会损坏植物。如果你给它们浇水，它们会长得越来越弱。如果不浇水，它们的根就得长得很深，寻找水。” how如何；why为什么；what什么；when何时。根据“If you don’t water them, their roots (根) have to grow deep in search of water.”可知，此处询问他为什么不给树浇水，故选B。 【56题详解】 句意：当我问他为什么时，他总是说：“浇水会损坏植物。如果你给它们浇水，它们会长得越来越弱。如果不浇水，它们的根就得长得很深，寻找水。” stronger and stronger越来越强壮；taller and taller越来越高；weaker and weaker越来越弱；shorter and shorter越来越短。根据“Watering plants will spoil (毁坏) them.”可知，给树浇水会毁坏它们，因此它们会越来越弱，故选C。 【57题详解】 句意：他每天早上都用卷起的报纸拍打它，而不是给它浇水。 beat敲击；held举行；repaired修理；broke折断。根据“with a rolled-up (卷起来的) newspaper”可知，用卷起来的报纸，应是敲打树木，故选A。 【58题详解】 句意：加布斯医生几年前去世了，但他的树还活着。 succeeded成功；died死亡；hid躲藏；worked工作。连词but前后表示转折，but后表示他的树还活着，因此but前表示他已经去世了，故选B。 【59题详解】 句意：每次我经过他的房子，看着他的树，我发现他们非常强壮和高大。 strange奇怪的；normal正常的；thin瘦的；big大的。此处与strong并列，因此表示树木高大，故选D。 【60题详解】 句意：太多时候，我们想要安逸，但这个梦想很难实现。 usually经常；quickly迅速地；hardly几乎不；simply仅仅。根据“We need to make our roots deep, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we won’t fall down easily.”可知，经历风雨才不会倒下，因此表示太安逸了，梦想几乎无法实现。故选C。 第二部分 非选择题 （共40 分） 四、语篇填空（共10小题，每小题1分；满分10分） 阅读短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或用括号内所给词的正确形式填空，使短文通顺、连贯。 A few years ago, I had an unusual experience.

He walked back, smiled and said, “Happy birthday!” I was ____65____ (complete) surprised at what happened next. He took out a dollar bill (纸币) ____66____ his pocket (衣兜), and gave it to me, saying, “Here, man, take this. Happy birthday!” Although I was deeply moved by his action, I have never ____67____ (accept) money from a homeless man. So I replied, “Thanks, but that’s OK.” He looked into my ____68____ (eye) and said, “God’s so good to ____69____ (I). Every night I always end up with a place to sleep and enough food to eat. Please take this.” I got the money and said, “Thank you.” This is one of the ____70____ (great) lessons in my life — however poor we may feel, we always have something valuable (宝贵的) to share with others. 【答案】61. 40th##fortieth 62. and 63. to ask 64. the 65. completely 66. from 67. accepted 68. eyes 69. me 70. greatest 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者在四十岁生日时遇到一位流浪汉向他要钱但作者没有给，后来流浪汉得知作者过生日却给了作者一美元的故事。 【61题详解】 句意：我和朋友们庆祝我的四十岁生日。根据“birthday”和单词提示可知，需要用序数词修饰birthday，forty的序数词为fortieth“第四十”。故填fortieth。 【62题详解】 句意：他们来得更早，在餐厅外等候。根据题干“They arrived earlier…waited outside the restaurant.”可知，应用连词and连接两个并列的动词过去式。故填and。 【63题详解】 句意：当我在路边时，一个流浪汉向我走来要钱。根据“a homeless man came to me…for money”可知，是一位乞讨的流浪汉走过来跟我要钱，不定式to ask表目的。故填to ask。 【64题详解】 句意：听到这句话，那个男人转过身来问道：“嘿，伙计，今天是你的生日？”。根据第一段“When I stood on the sidewalk, a homeless man…he moved on.”可知，是刚才跟我要钱的那个人，the第二次提到某人或某事表示特指，符合题意。故填the。 【65题详解】 句意：我彻底惊讶于接下来发生的事情。根据下文“He took out a dollar bill …Happy birthday!”可知，一个流浪汉居然给我钱，这让我彻底惊呆了。completely副词修饰形容词surprised，符合题意。故填completely。 66题详解】 句意：他从兜里掏出一元纸币递给我，说：“伙计，拿着这个。生日快乐！”。根据句意，是从衣兜里掏出的钱，from“从……”符合题意。故填from。 【67题详解】 句意：虽然我被他的行为深深感动，但我从没接受过一个流浪汉给的钱。根据句意是现在完成时，结构上have/has+过去分词，I是非单三人称作主语，应用have；提示词accept的过去分词是accepted。故填accepted。 【68题详解】 句意：他看着我的眼睛说：“上帝对我非常好。” 根据题意，“我的眼睛”应是my eyes。故填eyes。 【69题详解】 句意：他看着我的眼睛说：“上帝对我非常好。” be good to“对……好”，固定短语，to是介词后接I的宾格me，组成介宾短语。故填me。 【70题详解】 句意：这是我的人生中最难忘的经历之一——无论我们感到多么贫穷，我们总有一些有价值的东西可以与他人分享。根据前文“one of”可知，此处是one of+形容词最高级+名词，表示“……中最……之一”，great的最高级是greatest。故填greatest。 五、阅读与表达（共4小题，71~73小题，每小题2分，74小题4分；满分10分） 阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题。 On October 5, 2022, the World Teachers’ Day, UNESCO said that not having enough teachers is a big problem all over the world. UNRSCO found that there is a need for about 24.4 million more teachers for primary school students and 44.4 million more for middle school students by 2030 across the world. UNESCO found two big reasons behind this worldwide teacher shortage (短缺). First, some teachers have to face bad working conditions. Second, they don’t get paid enough. Many students are crowded together in one classroom, and teachers there have much more work than they can take. In rural (偏远的) areas, women teachers don’t have housing and have to take long, unsafe trips to school each day. UNESCO also found that in 6 out of 10 countries, primary school teachers get paid less than other jobs with the same work. To deal with the problem, UNESCO gives some ideas to make teaching more attractive (有吸引力的). Good pay is very important. Easier paperwork for teachers also helps. That way, teachers can teach more while worrying less about other things. 71. What problem is the passage talking about? ____________________________________ 72. How many big reasons are there behind the problem? ____________________________________ 73. How will UNESCO make teaching more attractive? ____________________________________ 74. Do you want to be a teacher when you grow up? Why or why not? Write 30 words or more. ____________________________________ 【答案】71. Not having enough teachers all over the world/There are not enough teachers in the world/The worldwide teacher shortage. 72. 2/Two. 73. It will give teachers good pay and easier paperwork/By giving teachers good pay and easier paperwork. 74. Yes, I want to be a teacher because I love children. I like teaching very much. When I work with children, I will feel relaxed and happy. So I want to be a teacher when I grow up./No, I don’t want to be a teacher because I don’t think this job can interest me. I’m not good at communicating with people. So I don’t want to be a teacher when I grow up. 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了全球教师短缺的问题及其原因，并提出了相应的解决方案。 【71题详解】 根据“UNESCO said that not having enough teachers is a big problem all over the world.”可知，本文讨论的是教师短缺的问题。故填Not having enough teachers all over the world/There are not enough teachers in the world/The worldwide teacher shortage. 【72题详解】 根据“UNESCO found two big reasons behind this worldwide teacher shortage (短缺).”可知，问题背后有两大原因。故填2/Two. 【73题详解】 根据“Good pay is very important. Easier paperwork for teachers also helps.”可知，UNESCO通过提供良好的薪酬和简化教师的文书工作来使教学更具吸引力。故填It will give teachers good pay and easier paperwork/By giving teachers good pay and easier paperwork. 【74题详解】 本题是开放性试题，言之有理即可，参考答案为Yes, I want to be a teacher because I love children. I like teaching very much. When I work with children, I will feel relaxed and happy. So I want to be a teacher when I grow up./No, I don’t want to be a teacher because I don’t think this job can interest me. I’m not good at communicating with people.

He put the watch in his pocket. The little girl knew she should really wait for her sister, but she decided to follow the rabbit. The rabbit had very pink eyes! She followed him across a field (田野) and under a hedge (树篱). The rabbit went down the hole and she did the same. But it was a very, very deep hole and she went down and down and down for a very long time. As she was falling, she saw lots of strange things. She finally hit the bottom (底部) of the hole and then her adventures (历险) started. Alice meets a lot more animals on her visit to “Wonderland”. Was it all real or was it a dream?

No one knew what was going to happen—a tsunami (海啸)! It would kill 200,000 people. Tilly learned in her geography class about tsunamis and saw a video of it. “My mom didn’t realize what was happening,” said Tilly. But Tilly did. “I looked at the water. It seemed that the water was boiling (沸腾) and there was a strange noise (噪音). The water was coming in, but it wasn’t going out again. It was coming in, and in, and in, towards the hotel.” She turned to her mother and sister and told them it was a tsunami. At first, they didn’t believe her. She was only 10 years old! Maybe she was just hoping to see a tsunami because she had studied it? Tilly’s father went back to the hotel with her sister. They told the people what Tilly said. Tilly ran out to the beach to warn (警告) the people there. The hotel workers believed Tilly. They began to get the people off the beach. Only a few minutes later a large wave (波浪) swept over the beach. This beach was one of the few beaches in Phuket where no one was killed or hurt badly. This was all because of the 10-year-old little girl Tilly Smith. She and all her family escaped (逃脱). 39. What happened when Tilly was on holiday? A. There was a car accident. B. A rainstorm hurt people. C. A large tsunami came. D. An earthquake happened. 40. Why did Tilly realize the danger? A. The weather changed. B. The water was different. C. The people were scared. D.

Try and answer the questions below. ·Which animals are most in danger and why? ·What can we do to protect them? Now check your answers and find out more. 10 million reptiles (爬行动物) are killed every year. Their skin (皮肤) is used to make fashion items (商品), like handbags and shoes. The main reason whales are in danger is that man kills them for their meat and oil. Orangutans (猩猩)live in rainforests. They want to live in peace, but people are cutting down the trees for wood and farming. This is a big problem because the trees are the orangutan’s homes. They are very difficult to find and study because they are shy animals. They are also our cousins! There isn’t enough bamboo for pandas to eat because man has cut down nearly half the bamboo forests. Research has shown that there are only about 600 pandas left in the wild in the world. Most of them live in China. The skin of the turtle (龟) is used to make some jewellery (首饰) . Some people steal (偷) the turtle’s eggs to eat. In the Far East, people use the horns (角) of rhinoceros (犀牛) to make machines. They also use them to make ornaments (装饰物) . 43.

UNRSCO found that there is a need for about 24.4 million more teachers for primary school students and 44.4 million more for middle school students by 2030 across the world. UNESCO found two big reasons behind this worldwide teacher shortage (短缺). First, some teachers have to face bad working conditions. Second, they don’t get paid enough. Many students are crowded together in one classroom, and teachers there have much more work than they can take. In rural (偏远的) areas, women teachers don’t have housing and have to take long, unsafe trips to school each day. UNESCO also found that in 6 out of 10 countries, primary school teachers get paid less than other jobs with the same work. To deal with the problem, UNESCO gives some ideas to make teaching more attractive (有吸引力). Good pay is very important. Easier paperwork for teachers also helps. That way, teachers can teach more while worrying less about other things. 71. What problem is the passage talking about? ____________________________________ 72.
