Spinach (菠菜) is a great choice. It grows easily throughout the year and it has many health benefits. When should you plant spinach? Spinach can survive (存活) temperatures as low as —7 degrees Celsius (摄氏度), but that’s not good for its growth. Spinach seeds sprout (发芽) best in soil temperatures between 7 and 24 degrees Celsius. Once the seeds have sprouted, the vegetable grows best in daytime temperatures between 15 and 27 degrees Celsius. Temperatures above 29 degrees Celsius can influence its taste, making it bitter. Where should you grow spinach? Pot size: A 15- to 20- centimeter- deep pot would be the best. Depending on your space, it can be as wide as you want. Make sure your pot has a hole at the bottom. Soil: For growing spinach in pots, use a mix rich in organic matter (有机物). Make sure it won’t get waterlogged (浸透水的) easily. Spacing: Give each spinach plant seven centimeters of space. If you want to harvest (收获) large leaves, give each plant a little more space. Position: If you are growing spinach in the fall and winter, keep the plants in a sunny place. Make sure they receive at least four hours of direct sunlight every day. For spring and summer planting, place your plants in a position that receives some shade (阴凉), especially in the afternoon. How should you take care of your spinach? Watering: Keep the soil moist (湿润的) but not wet. Waterlogging will lead to rot (腐烂). Avoid watering the leaves. Fertilizing (施肥): To grow healthy spinach, you need to provide nitrogen (氮素). Use a slow- drop fertilizer. It will provide nitrogen and other nutrients (养分) slowly. When can you harvest? Spinach grows quickly. You can harvest when the plant has formed at least five healthy leaves (7～10 centimeters in length), usually within one month after it sprouts. 16. How many pieces of advice did the writer give us on growing spinach? A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six. 17. What temperature is the most suitable for growing spinach? A. 7 to 24 degrees Celsius at night. B. 15 to 27 degrees Celsius at night. C. 7 to 24 degrees Celsius during the daytime. D. 15 to 27 degrees Celsius during the daytime. 18. Which pot would be the best one for your spinach? A. A 7- to 10- centimeter- deep pot without any holes in the bottom. B. A 10- to 15- centimeter- deep pot with some holes in the bottom. C. A 15- to 24- centimeter- deep pot without any holes in the bottom. D. A 15- to 20- centimeter- deep pot with a hole in the bottom. 19. What’s the correct order of growing spinach? ①keep the soil moist and provide nutrients slowly ②prepare spinach seeds, a proper size of pot and rich soil ③harvest the spinach when they have five healthy leaves ④plant some spinach seeds in a pot with certain space ⑤give them proper sunlight and wait for them to sprout A. ②④⑤①③ B. ②④①⑤③ C. ④②⑤①③ D. ④①②⑤③ 20.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了种植菠菜的相关内容。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据“When should you plant spinach?”“Where should you grow spinach?”“How should you take care of your spinach?”“When can you harvest?”可知，作者给出了关于种植菠菜的四条建议。故选B。 【17题详解】 细节理解题。根据“the vegetable grows best in daytime temperatures between 15 and 27 degrees Celsius”可知，菠菜在白天15到27摄氏度的温度下生长最佳。故选D。 【18题详解】 细节理解题。根据“A 15- to 20- centimeter- deep pot would be the best.”“Make sure your pot has a hole at the bottom.”可知，最适合种植菠菜的花盆是深度为15到20厘米，底部有孔的花盆。故选D。 【19题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章内容，种植菠菜的正确顺序是：准备菠菜种子、合适大小的花盆和富含有机物的土壤；在花盆中按一定间距种植菠菜种子；给它们适当的阳光并等待发芽；保持土壤湿润并提供养分；当菠菜有五片健康的叶子时收获。故选A。 【20题详解】 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了如何在家种植菠菜的相关知识。故选A。 B Asimov was born in 1920 in Russia. When he was three years old, he moved to New York City with his family. Making a go of life in America turned out to be more difficult than they had expected. Finally, Asimov’s father managed to buy a candy store. It turned out that this decision would have a big influence on Asimov’s future. As a child, Asimov worked long hours in the store. Over time, he noticed that the sci-fi magazines kept drawing customers in. These magazines told stories about things like aliens (外星人). Asimov became interested in them. His father, however, thought that sci-fi magazines were trash. He told his son not to waste time reading about things that “do not exist and never will”. The ban didn’t kill Asimov’s love of science fiction. He continued to read those magazines secretly. While they opened the door to a whole new world for the boy, the room where he learned useful things like the art of storytelling was a library of more serious books. In order to satisfy his desire to read, his father gave him a library card. The boy became a regular visitor to the local public library. As Asimov himself once wrote, “I got my real education in the public library. For a poor boy whose family could not afford to buy books, the library was like a door to wonder. I can never be thankful enough that I chose to walk into that library and make the most of it.” Asimov sold his first sci-fi story when he was still in high school. As his writing kept improving, his stories became more and more popular. By the time he was 36, Asimov was widely considered to be a master of science fiction. He created the word “robotics” and invented the famous Three Laws of Robotics. It’s hard to believe that these great achievements all started from a love of “trashy” magazines in a candy store. 21. What can we know about Asimov’s childhood? A. He lived in Russia for two years. B. His family left for Russia when he was young. C. His family lived an interesting life in New York. D. He worked in the candy store for a long time. 22. What can we infer from the second paragraph? A. The customers were curious about sci-fi magazines. B. Asimov was born with interests on sci-fi stories. C. Asimov’s father liked reading sci-fi magazines. D. Asimov’s father thought science fiction was real. 23. What does the underlined part “whole new world” mean? A. The new school life in New York. B. His new hobby of reading books. C. The interesting science fiction stories. D. Different candies in the candy store. 24. Why could Asimov be master of science fiction? A. The free time in his store. B. The card of the library. C. His father’s support. D. His interests and efforts. 25. What’s the best title of the passage? A. Library Was a Door to Wonder B. Asimov, the Candy Store Kid C. A Writer of Science Fiction D. Three Laws of Robotics 【答案】21. D 22. A 23. B 24. D 25. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了科幻小说大师 Isaac Asimov 如何从一个家里开糖果店的小孩成为一名受欢迎的科幻小说大师的故事。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“As a child, Asimov worked long hours in the store.”可知，Asimov童年时期在父亲的商店里工作较长的时间。故选D。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Over time, he noticed that the sci-fi magazines kept drawing customers in.”可知，科幻小说杂志一直吸引着顾客，由此可推断顾客对它们很好奇。故选A。 【23题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“...where he learned useful things like the art of storytelling was a library of more serious books.”可知，Asimov在图书馆里学习了很多有用的东西，接触了更多的书籍，因此下一句中“a whole new world”就是指的是他读书的这个新爱好。故选B。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据“These magazines told stories about things like aliens (外星人). Asimov became interested in them.”以及“He continued to read those magazines secretly.”以及“I can never be thankful enough that I chose to walk into that library and make the most of it.”及“As his writing kept improving, his stories became more and more popular.”可知，Asimov从一开始对科幻小说的兴趣，再到后来自己坚持不懈的阅读及写作能力和水平的提高，最终成为了科幻小说大师。故选D。 【25题详解】 最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了Asimov如何从一个家里开糖果店的小孩成为一名受欢迎的科幻小说大师的故事。故选C。 C Every year almost all of the 330 million tennis balls made worldwide are thrown away. Lots of them end up in landfill, where they can take up to 400 years to decompose (分解). The International Tennis Federation (ITF) is trying to find out if tennis balls can be produced and used in a way that is kinder to the planet. Tennis balls are made from an air- filled rubber core (橡胶芯). They are coated in glue and covered in felt (毛毡) which can’t be recycled. Although rubber can be recycled, the glue that holds the felt covering onto it is so strong that the two can’t be easily separated. The best quality tennis balls are used by the world’s top players. They are usually made from new materials— latex (胶乳). This is a milky sticky material collected from cuts made in rubber trees and mixed with chemicals. Players don’t use tennis balls for very long before they are replaced. In big tennis games, the balls are hit so hard that they are changed after the first seven games, and then every nine games after that. This is to make sure the balls stay smooth and energetic. The ITF has put together a team of scientists to try to find a way to design a fully recyclable tennis ball. They are also testing to see if tennis balls could be used for longer before being replaced. Not all used tennis balls go to waste. The balls used at the Wimbledon championships are sold to the public. Some are given to wildlife charities, which use them as homes for harvest mice. Some are used as dog toys or to make a flooring material for tennis clubs and horse- riding centers. 26. How did the writer lead into his writing? A. By listing facts. B. Through imaging. C. By showing examples. D. Through giving advice. 27. Which of the following material in a tennis ball can be used again? A. Glue. B. Felt. C. Rubber. D. Latex. 28. What does Paragraph 3 mainly want to tell us? A. The tennis balls are used for many times. B. It is a waste if we replaced the tennis balls so often. C The tennis ball would be changed after the first seven games. D Players replace the balls to keep them stay in the best condition. 29. What does the ITF do to make the used tennis ball be friendlier to the planet? A They try to find new materials that could be recycled. B. They make a team of scientists to find ways. C. They test to use the tennis balls more times. D. They sell the balls to wildlife charities or horse- riding centers. 30. Where is the passage probably taken from? A. A Sports Guide. B. Movie Review. C. A Book Review. D. Green Environment. 【答案】26. A 27. C 28. D 29. B 30. D 【解析】 【分析】本文介绍了每年有大量的用过的难以分解的网球，并介绍了网球的制作材料和球员需要经常环球的原因以及国际网球联合会（ITF）正在采取的措施。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章开头“Every year almost all of the 330 million tennis balls made worldwide are thrown away.

If 41. doubts 42. with 43. successful 44. young 45. dirction 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了我们人生当中一些里程碑以及它们的重要性。 【36题详解】 句意：其中一些里程碑与我们的年龄增长有关，然而其他的是通过我们所取得或者期望所取得的成就而达到的。此处应填动词的过去分词形式，根据“Some of these milestones have to do with how we age, while others are...by things we achieve, or are expected to achieve.”可知，这些里程碑可通过年龄增长或者自己所获得的成就所达到，结合备选词汇可知，“reach到达”的过去分词reached符合语境。故填reached。 【37题详解】 句意：一个人在21岁时看起来是一个完全成熟的人。此处应填动词的三单形式，根据“as a fully- grown adult by the age of 21”可知，应是21岁时才能是一个完全成熟的人，根据备选词汇“appear出现”以及“By the age of one, a child learns to walk; at the age of two, they can talk.”可知，此处应用一般现在时且主语是第三人称单数，appears符合语境。故填appears。 【38题详解】 句意：但是，也有其他的里程碑，这和在和我们人生某个阶段被期望达到的成就有关。此处应填be动词，此句为“there be”句型，根据全文可知应用一般现在时，且根据“other milestones (里程碑)”可知，主语为复数，应用are。故填are。 【39题详解】 句意：例如，你被期望在某个年纪从学校毕业，开始一项职业，结婚和组建家庭。此处应填动词原形，根据“from school”以及备选词汇可知，“graduate from school毕业”符合语境。故填graduate。 【40题详解】 句意：如果一个社会需要保持良好的平衡，人们就不得不遵守这些里程碑的时间线。此处应填连词，根据前后句关系可知，应为条件状语从句，结合备选词汇可知，“if如果”符合语境，且位于句首应大写首字母。故填If。 【41题详解】 句意：但是在网络平台上，当今的年轻人在表达他们对“社会时间”的严重质疑。此处应填名词作宾语，根据“They think they should be able to choose “when” they want to achieve them, or even “if” they want to achieve them.”可知，当今的年轻人认为他们自己有选择实现这些里程碑的权利，故可推测他们是质疑“社会时间”得，结合备选词汇可知，“doubts怀疑”符合语境。故填doubts。 【42题详解】 句意：但是那些年轻人应该记住“社会时间”是和“真实的时间”相关联的。根据“have to do with和……有关”以及备选词汇可知，with符合语境。故填with。 【43题详解】 对于大多数人来说，随着你变老，学业成功或是事业有成都会变得更加困难。此处应填形容词修饰名词，根据“complete your education or develop a...career. ”可知，应是表达“学业有成，事业成功”，结合备选词汇可知，“success”的形容词“successful成功的”符合语境。故填successful。 【44题详解】 句意：如果你等太久了，你会发现时光流逝，留你后悔本该在年轻时就该做的事而未做。此处应填形容词作表语，根据“you may find that “time” has passed you by”可知，与现在相比应该是年轻时本该做的事而未做，结合备选词汇可知，“young年轻的”符合语境。故填young。 【45题详解】 句意：一点一点推进人生的里程碑是可能的，但是在我们的人生旅途中，它们已经被放置来给我们指导，帮助我们成长并构建我们的生活。此处应填名词，根据“Without milestones, we would just hang around aimlessly.”可知，这些里程碑应是给我们指导，不会让我们毫无目的的闲逛，结合备选词汇可知，“direct指导”的名词“direction指导”符合语境且应用复数。故填direction. 四、读写结合（共两节，满分25分） 第一节 任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，用英文填空或回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 You might imagine that the scariest sound in the African rainforest is the roar of a lion. However, a new study has found that wild mammals (哺乳动物) actually find the sound of human voices scarier than any noise made by a big cat. The research was done by scientists in the Greater Kruger National Park in South Africa, which is home to around 1,600 lions. The team set up speakers and cameras near 21 watering holes around the park between June and August. The park becomes very dry at that time of year, and this encourages animals to head for the waterholes because most other sources of fresh water have dried up. This makes waterholes a popular hunting spot for both lions and poachers. A poacher is a person who hunts animals illegally (非法地). Poachers often catch rhinos (犀牛) and elephants because they can sell their horns (角) or tusks for a lot of money. During the experiment, the researchers played different sounds. These included lions snarling (咆哮) and growling, and humans speaking calmly in local languages. The animals at the waterhole included elephants, giraffes, rhinos and so on. The study found that animals were twice as likely to run away from a human voice than a lion sound. Animals also gave up the waterholes 40% faster when they heard human noises. The results suggest that animals living in the park have learned that being close to humans can be dangerous because they might be poachers. This could be a problem for national parks and areas that depend on making money from tourists coming to watch the animals, because visitors might scare the animals away. However, the findings might be very useful for wildlife protection. Endangered animals, such as the southern white rhino (犀牛), could be protected by using recorded human voices—the sounds could keep them away from areas popular with poachers. 46. The passage mainly talks about ______.（10个词以内） 47. The second paragraph tells us about the ______ of the research.（5个词以内） 48. The poachers catch rhinos and elephants for their ______.（5个词以内） 49. Why did the animals run away from a human voice during the experiment?（10个词以内） ____________________ 50. What can you learn from the last paragraph? （20个词以内） ____________________ 【答案】46. wild animals’ fear of human voices 47. detailed information 48. horns or tusks 49. Because they learned that the humuns might be poachers.  50. The study might be useful for wildlife protection. 【解析】 【导语】本文在介绍关于最恐怖的声音的研究发现以及其用处。 【46题详解】 根据“You might imagine that the scariest sound in the African rainforest is the roar of a lion. However, a new study has found that wild mammals (哺乳动物) actually find the sound of human voices scarier than any noise made by a big cat.”可知，本文主要在介绍野生生物对人类声音的恐惧。故填wild animals’ fear of human voices。 【47题详解】 根据“The research was done by scientists in the Greater Kruger National Park in South Africa, which is home to around 1,600 lions. The team set up speakers and cameras near 21 watering holes around the park between June and August.”可知，此段在介绍研究由谁发起、在哪里实施以及怎样实施，故是研究的详细信息。故填detailed information。 【48题详解】 根据“because they can sell their horns (角) or tusks for a lot of money.”可知，偷猎者捕猎犀牛和大象来获取它们的犀牛角和象牙。故填horns or tusks。 【49题详解】 根据“The results suggest that animals living in the park have learned that being close to humans can be dangerous because they might be poachers.”可知，这些动物认为这可能是偷猎者的声音，故很危险。故填Because they learned that the humuns might be poachers。 【50题详解】 根据“However, the findings might be very useful for wildlife protection.”可知，此段在介绍此研究可能有助于保护野生动物。故填The study might be useful for wildlife protection。 第二节 书面表达（共1题，满分15分） 51. 自律，才能掌握人生。你的英国笔友 Mike想了解你在学习、生活中是如何自我管理的，请你以“I Can Manage ______”为题来谈一谈。 提示：1.

Spinach (菠菜) is a great choice. It grows easily throughout the year and it has many health benefits. When should you plant spinach? Spinach can survive (存活) temperatures as low as —7 degrees Celsius (摄氏度), but that’s not good for its growth. Spinach seeds sprout (发芽) best in soil temperatures between 7 and 24 degrees Celsius. Once the seeds have sprouted, the vegetable grows best in daytime temperatures between 15 and 27 degrees Celsius. Temperatures above 29 degrees Celsius can influence its taste, making it bitter. Where should you grow spinach? Pot size: A 15- to 20- centimeter- deep pot would be the best. Depending on your space, it can be as wide as you want. Make sure your pot has a hole at the bottom. Soil: For growing spinach in pots, use a mix rich in organic matter (有机物). Make sure it won’t get waterlogged (浸透水的) easily. Spacing: Give each spinach plant seven centimeters of space. If you want to harvest (收获) large leaves, give each plant a little more space. Position: If you are growing spinach in the fall and winter, keep the plants in a sunny place. Make sure they receive at least four hours of direct sunlight every day. For spring and summer planting, place your plants in a position that receives some shade (阴凉), especially in the afternoon. How should you take care of your spinach? Watering: Keep the soil moist (湿润的) but not wet. Waterlogging will lead to rot (腐烂). Avoid watering the leaves. Fertilizing (施肥): To grow healthy spinach you need to provide nitrogen (氮素). Use a slow- drop fertilizer. It will provide nitrogen and other nutrients (养分) slowly. When can you harvest? Spinach grows quickly. You can harvest when the plant has formed at least five healthy leaves (7～10 centimeters in length), usually within one month after it sprouts. 16. How many pieces of advice did the writer give us on growing spinach? A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six. 17. What temperature is the most suitable for growing spinach? A. 7 to 24 degrees Celsius at night. B. 15 to 27 degrees Celsius at night. C. 7 to 24 degrees Celsius during the daytime. D. 15 to 27 degrees Celsius during the daytime. 18. Which pot would be the best one for your spinach? A. A 7- to 10- centimeter- deep pot without any holes in the bottom. B. A 10- to 15- centimeter- deep pot with some holes in the bottom. C. A 15- to 24- centimeter- deep pot without any holes in the bottom. D. A 15- to 20- centimeter- deep pot with a hole in the bottom. 19. What’s the correct order of growing spinach? ①keep the soil moist and provide nutrients slowly ②prepare spinach seeds, a proper size of pot and rich soil ③harvest the spinach when they have five healthy leaves ④plant some spinach seeds in a pot with certain space ⑤give them proper sunlight and wait for them to sprout A. ②④⑤①③ B. ②④①⑤③ C. ④②⑤①③ D. ④①②⑤③ 20. What’s the passage mainly about? A. How to grow spinach. B. When to plant spinach. C. When to harvest spinach. D. How to take care of the spinach. B Asimov was born in 1920 in Russia. When he was three years old, he moved to New York City with his family. Making a go of life in America turned out to be more difficult than they had expected. Finally, Asimov’s father managed to buy a candy store. It turned out that this decision would have a big influence on Asimov’s future. As a child, Asimov worked long hours in the store. Over time, he noticed that the sci-fi magazines kept drawing customers in. These magazines told stories about things like aliens (外星人). Asimov became interested in them. His father, however, thought that sci-fi magazines were trash. He told his son not to waste time reading about things that “do not exist and never will”. The ban didn’t kill Asimov’s love of science fiction. He continued to read those magazines secretly. While they opened the door to a whole new world for the boy, the room where he learned useful things like the art of storytelling was a library of more serious books. In order to satisfy his desire to read, his father gave him a library card. The boy became a regular visitor to the local public library. As Asimov himself once wrote, “I got my real education in the public library. For a poor boy whose family could not afford to buy books, the library was like a door to wonder. I can never be thankful enough that I chose to walk into that library and make the most of it.” Asimov sold his first sci-fi story when he was still in high school. As his writing kept improving, his stories became more and more popular. By the time he was 36, Asimov was widely considered to be a master of science fiction. He created the word “robotics” and invented the famous Three Laws of Robotics. It’s hard to believe that these great achievements all started from a love of “trashy” magazines in a candy store. 21. What can we know about Asimov’s childhood? A. He lived in Russia for two years. B. His family left for Russia when he was young. C. His family lived an interesting life in New York. D. He worked in the candy store for a long time. 22. What can we infer from the second paragraph? A. The customers were curious about sci-fi magazines. B. Asimov was born with interests on sci-fi stories. C. Asimov’s father liked reading sci-fi magazines. D. Asimov’s father thought science fiction was real. 23. What does the underlined part “whole new world” mean? A. The new school life in New York. B. His new hobby of reading books. C. The interesting science fiction stories. D. Different candies in the candy store. 24. Why could Asimov be master of science fiction? A. The free time in his store. B. The card of the library. C. His father’s support. D. His interests and efforts. 25. What’s the best title of the passage? A. Library Was a Door to Wonder B. Asimov, the Candy Store Kid C. A Writer of Science Fiction D. Three Laws of Robotics C Every year almost all of the 330 million tennis balls made worldwide are thrown away. Lots of them end up in landfill, where they can take up to 400 years to decompose (分解). The International Tennis Federation (ITF) is trying to find out if tennis balls can be produced and used in a way that is kinder to the planet. Tennis balls are made from an air- filled rubber core (橡胶芯). They are coated in glue and covered in felt (毛毡) which can’t be recycled. Although rubber can be recycled, the glue that holds the felt covering onto it is so strong that the two can’t be easily separated. The best quality tennis balls are used by the world’s top players. They are usually made from new materials— latex (胶乳). This is a milky sticky material collected from cuts made in rubber trees and mixed with chemicals. Players don’t use tennis balls for very long before they are replaced. In big tennis games, the balls are hit so hard that they are changed after the first seven games, and then every nine games after that. This is to make sure the balls stay smooth and energetic. The ITF has put together a team of scientists to try to find a way to design a fully recyclable tennis ball. They are also testing to see if tennis balls could be used for longer before being replaced. Not all used tennis balls go to waste. The balls used at the Wimbledon championships are sold to the public. Some are given to wildlife charities which use them as homes for harvest mice. Some are used as dog toys or to make a flooring material for tennis clubs and horse- riding centers. 26. How did the writer lead into his writing? A. By listing facts. B. Through imaging. C. By showing examples. D. Through giving advice. 27. Which of the following material in a tennis ball can be used again? A. Glue. B. Felt. C. Rubber. D. Latex. 28. What does Paragraph 3 mainly want to tell us? A. The tennis balls are used for many times. B. It is a waste if we replaced the tennis balls so often. C. The tennis ball would be changed after the first seven games. D. Players replace the balls to keep them stay in the best condition. 29. What does the ITF do to make the used tennis ball be friendlier to the planet? A. They try to find new materials that could be recycled. B. They make a team of scientists to find ways. C They test to use the tennis balls more times. D. They sell the balls to wildlife charities or horse- riding centers. 30. Where is the passage probably taken from? A. A Sports Guide. B. Movie Review. C. A Book Review. D. Green Environment. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，从方框中所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Part of growing up is learning how to work things out for yourself. However, when you’re feeling upset, puzzled or lost, you don’t have to fight alone. ·___31___ There are lots of reasons why you could need help, for example, with schoolwork, solving a disagreement, learning a new skill, or when you feel sad, anxious or angry. Feeling down because you’re finding something difficult, or it’s taking a long time to make progress, can also make you feel like you can’t do it. ___32___ When you’re fighting with something but you tell yourself you should be able to do it on your own, asking for help will move you forward more quickly than trying on your own. ·What stops you asking for help ___33___ It can be tricky if you’re not sure who to ask. You might think they haven’t got the time. If you think asking for a helping hand is a sign of weakness, it makes it harder to turn to another person. An expert says asking for help can feel risky. “We may feel scared that it won’t be taken seriously or that it isn’t a big deal to the other person or even that they won’t know what to say.” ·___34___ Everyone finds things difficult sometimes. Experts believe asking for help is an act of bravery. “Letting someone in, trusting them with your story and asking them to listen to you and help you come up with ideas of how to deal with a problem takes great courage. When you ask for help, it takes the pressure off.” ___35___ By asking for help, you practise speaking up for yourself and saying what you need. It also shows you how someone else might feel when they’re fighting, which means you could be more able to offer a helping hand when someone needs it. A. Asking for support is brave B. When you might need help C. There are other benefits too. D. Asking for help isn’t always easy. E. Asking for help would be smart choice. F. All signs that you need help 三、短文填空（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读短文，从方框中选出正确的词并用其适当形式填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词，每词限用一次。 reach, appear, be, graduate, if, doubts, with, success, young, direct If life is a journey, then along the way there are milestones that help us measure the distance (距离) we have traveled on that journey. Some of these milestones have to do with how we age, while others are ___36___ by things we achieve, or are expected to achieve. By the age of one, a child learns to walk; at the age of two, they can talk. And a person ___37___ as a fully- grown adult by the age of 21. These milestones are part of natural human growth. There ___38___ other milestones (里程碑), however, which have to do with what we are expected to achieve at certain points in our lives. For example, you are expected to ___39___ from school, to begin a career (职业), to marry and start a family at a certain age. So people call these expectations “social time”. ___40___ a society needs to remain well-balanced, people have to follow the “timeline” for these milestones. However, on online platforms, young people of today are expressing their serious ___41___ about “social time”. They think they should be able to choose “when” they want to achieve them, or even “if” they want to achieve them. But those young people should remember that “social time” has to do ___42___ “real time”.

And, if you wait too long, you may find that “time” has passed you by and you are left to regret (后悔) the things you could have done when you were ___44___. It is possible to move life’s milestones a little bit, but they have been placed there on our journey to give us ___45___ and to help us grow and build our lives. Without milestones, we would just hang around aimlessly. 四、读写结合（共两节，满分25分） 第一节 任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，用英文填空或回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 You might imagine that the scariest sound in the African rainforest is the roar of a lion.

These included lions snarling (咆哮) and growling, and humans speaking calmly in local languages. The animals at the waterhole included elephants, giraffes, rhinos and so on. The study found that animals were twice as likely to run away from a human voice than a lion sound. Animals also gave up the waterholes 40% faster when they heard human noises. The results suggest that animals living in the park have learned that being close to humans can be dangerous because they might be poachers. This could be a problem for national parks and areas that depend on making money from tourists coming to watch the animals, because visitors might scare the animals away. However, the findings might be very useful for wildlife protection. Endangered animals, such as the southern white rhino (犀牛), could be protected by using recorded human voices—the sounds could keep them away from areas popular with poachers. 46.
