A. walking, to bring B. to walk, to bring C. walking, bringing D. to walk, bring 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：那个男孩因为忘了带钥匙而停了下来。 考查非谓语动词。根据“The boy stopped…”可知，男孩停止了行走，stop doing sth.“停止做某事”，故第一空填walking。根据“he forgot…his keys”可知，此处指“他忘记带钥匙”，forget to do sth.“忘记做某事”，故第二空填to bring。故选A。 4.

Of the two houses in front of the supermarket, I think it is ________ one. A. older B. oldest C. the older D. the oldest 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：在超市前面的两栋房子中，我认为它是较旧的一栋。 考查形容词比较级的用法。older较旧的，为old的比较级；oldest最老的，为old的最高级。根据“Of the two houses in front of the supermarket, I think it is…one.”可知，此处指在超市前面的两栋房子中，它是较旧的一栋房子，两者作比较，应用形容词的比较级；空处特指两者中较旧的那一栋房子，比较级前应加定冠词the，空处应用the older 。故选C。 7.

A. as clear as possible B. as clear as possibly C. as clearly as possible D. as clearly as possibly 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：当我们阅读时，我们应该尽可能清楚地阅读。 考查副词用法及原级句型。根据“read”可知，此处副词修饰动词，排除A和B选项，根据C和D选项可知，此处是“as...as possible”结构，意为“尽可能……”，所以D选项错误。故选C。 9.

A. careful enough; enough time B. carefully enough; enough time C. enough careful; enough time D. enough carefully; time enough 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：虽然他有足够的时间，但他写得不够仔细。 考查enough的用法。enough可作形容词，意思是“足够的”，修饰名词的时候，常放在名词前；enough还可以作副词，修饰形容词或副词的时候，只能放在形容词或副词的后面；句中第一个空是修饰动词write，要用副词carefully来修饰，enough应置于carefully后面，排除A/C/D选项；第二个空修饰名词time，enough置于其前；故选B。 10. There is only ________ yogurt left. We need to buy some more. A. little B. a little C. few D. a few 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：只剩下一点酸奶了。我们需要再买一些。 考查不定代词。little几乎没有，修饰不可数名词；a little一些，修饰不可数名词；few几乎没有，修饰可数名词复数；a few一些，修饰可数名词复数。空后的yogurt为不可数名词，排除C、D项。根据“There is only…yogurt left.”可知，还有一些酸奶，a little符合题意。故选B。 11. I found ________ to tell him everything that had happen. A. it necessary B. that necessary C. it’s necessary D. that’s necessary 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：我觉得有必要把发生的一切都告诉他。 考查it作形式宾语的用法。根据“I found…to tell him everything that had happen.”可知，此处指“我”觉得有必要把发生的一切都告诉他，find it+形容词+to do sth.“发现做某事是……”，固定句型，it作形式宾语，真正的宾语为动词不定式；空处应用it necessary。故选A。 12. They ________ me and ________ the game the day before yesterday. A. beat, win B. won, beat C. beat, won D. won, won 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：前天他们打败了我，赢得了比赛。 考查动词辨析。beat打败，宾语为对手；won赢得，宾语为比赛、奖励等。根据“They ... me and ... the game the day before yesterday.”可知，时态为一般过去时，故第一空应用过去式beat，表示打败我；第二空用过去式won，表示赢得比赛。故选C。 13. —Tom, how do you like the museum? —Oh, no other museum is ________ in the city.

He has written over 70 children’s books. His most famous book, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, is popular all over the world. What most people don’t know is that Eric makes art for adults (成人), too. “ArtArt” is one of Eric’s works for adults. Like Eric’s children’s books, his “ArtArt” is full of colors. He says that he loves color so much because he missed it in the war (战争) in Germany. Eric was born in New York in 1929, but moved to Germany with his family when he was six. When he was 10, World War II started. Eric found people painted all the houses in his town gray, brown, or dark green. It seemed like there was no color anywhere. At the end of the war, “when color came back,” Eric said, “I just loved it so much. I keep saying that I wish our eyes could see more color. Color is very important in my work.” Anyone who has seen Eric’s books can see how important color is to the artist. He paints colors on a piece of paper (一张纸), cuts out shapes (形状), and then glues (粘贴) them onto another piece of paper. This is a special method. Eric used it in his “ArtArt”.“ArtArt” has paintings, photos and even clothes. In all these works, he uses different colors from purple to green to orange. 36 What do we know about Eric’s The Very Hungry Caterpillar? A. It’s his first book. B. He wrote it in the war. C. He wrote it in New York. D. It’s his best-known book. 37. When did Eric move to Germany? A. In 1929. B. In 1935. C. In 1939. D. In 1945. 38. What does the underlined word “it” refer to? A. Color. B. Work. C. The town. D. The house. 39. What does the underlined word “method” mean in Chinese? A. 评论 B. 体验 C. 研究 D. 方法 40. The writer mainly wants to tell us about ________. A. Eric’s dream B. Eric’s early life C. one of Eric’s works for adults D. one of Eric’s works for children 【答案】36. D 37. B 38. A 39. D 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了美国作家Eric Carle以及他的作品。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“His most famous book, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, is popular all over the world.”可知，这本书很受欢迎，为畅销书籍。故选D。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Eric was born in New York in 1929, but moved to Germany with his family when he was six.”可知，Eric于1935年搬到德国。故选B。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Eric used it in his ‘ArtArt’. ‘ArtArt’ has paintings, photos and even clothes. In all these works, he uses different colors from purple to green to orange.”可知，Eric在他的作品“ArtArt”中使用了它，“ArtArt”中有画，有照片，甚至有衣服；在所有这些作品中，他使用了从紫色到绿色到橙色的不同颜色；可推断出“it”指的是“color”。故选A。 【39题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“He paints colors on a piece of paper, cuts out shapes, and then glues (粘贴) them onto another piece of paper. This is a special method.”可知，他在一张纸上涂上颜色，剪出形状，然后把它们粘在另一张纸上，这是一种特殊的方法；可推测出“method”意为“方法”。故选D。 【40题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“‘ArtArt’ is one of Eric’s works for adults.”以及通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了Eric为成年人创作的作品之一。故选C。 C 阅读下列短文，从六个选项中选出五个最佳选项填入横线中。 As time goes by, are you still the same person you were?

E 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了通过研究证明同一个人在不同年龄阶段的性格会发生巨变。 【41题详解】 根据“You could be a completely different person when you get old”可知，当你变老了，你可能是不同，因此你会发生变化，F选项“但根据一项新的研究，你的性格可以发生很大的变化”符合，故选F。 【42题详解】 根据“Psychologists (心理家) at the UK’s University of Edinburgh did the study on a group of Scottish people”可知此处是英国心理学家做了一项研究，此时位于研究的早期，在进行初步探索，A选项“他们想知道人们的性格是否是不变的”符合语境。故选A。 【43题详解】 给根据“In 1950, a group of teachers gave over 1200 14-year-old students personality tests. ”可知此处介绍老师对学生的性格测试，故介绍测试的内容，C选项“他们测试了六种基本的人格特质”符合，故选C。 【44题详解】 根据“They were surprised to find great changes to all six personality traits of these people”可知，他们发现这些人的个性特征发生了变化，因此他们把现在和那时的结果进行了比较，B选项“然后他们比较了当时和现在的测试结果”符合，故选B。 【45题详解】 根据“It was ‘as if the second test had been given to different people.’”可知，第二次测试仿佛是给完全不同的人进行的，因此每一个人年轻时的自己和年老时的自己是不同的，E选项“对于每个人来说，年轻的自己和年老的自己似乎完全不同”符合，故选E。 II卷（共45分） IV.综A （每题2分，共10分） 选词填空 ride, care about, wonder, happen, feed 46.

B Ten years ago, when I was in high school, Mrs. White was my language teacher. One day at lunch time, I was about to eat my cold fish sandwich and she suddenly asked me if she could buy my lunch from me. She explained that I could use the money to buy a hot lunch from the cafeteria. I was very (A) pleased. I had never thought of going to the cafeteria to buy my lunch like other students. I didn’t have enough money to buy a hot lunch there; it was too expensive. (B) Although most of my classmates can’t stand the cafeteria food, I really wanted to buy it. When we finished lunch that day, she told me that she didn’t eat red meat on Fridays—she ate fish on Fridays. After that, every Friday Mrs. White bought my fish sandwich and with the money I could buy a hot lunch from the cafeteria. One year later, I learned from a classmate that Mrs. White didn’t like sandwiches and her family was not rich. She bought my cold sandwich because she saw a little girl who was excited to have a hot lunch. She wanted to help me! I couldn’t help crying. I will never forget her kind heart and I will remember my dear Mrs. White all my life. 71. 猜测 (A) 处画线单词“pleased”的中文意思。 A. 欢喜的 B. 郁闷的 C. 失控的 72. 将 (B) 处画线句子译为汉语。 _____________________________________________ 73. 请从文中找出与“I can’t afford a hot lunch in the cafeteria.”意思相同或相近的向子。 _____________________________________________ 74. 回答问题。 Would you like Mrs. White to be your teacher?

He says that he loves color so much because he missed it in the war (战争) in Germany. Eric was born in New York in 1929, but moved to Germany with his family when he was six. When he was 10, World War II started. Eric found people painted all the houses in his town gray, brown, or dark green. It seemed like there was no color anywhere. At the end of the war, “when color came back,” Eric said, “I just loved it so much. I keep saying that I wish our eyes could see more color. Color is very important in my work.” Anyone who has seen Eric’s books can see how important color is to the artist. He paints colors on a piece of paper (一张纸), cuts out shapes (形状), and then glues (粘贴) them onto another piece of paper. This is a special method. Eric used it in his “ArtArt”.“ArtArt” has paintings, photos and even clothes. In all these works, he uses different colors from purple to green to orange. 36.
