Once upon a time, a young man wanted to go to a village on business. Halfway there was a mountain. Before he left home, his family warned him to stay calm and climb onto trees if he was in face of beasts(野兽). In this way, the beasts couldn’t do anything to him. The young man remembered these words and began his trip.
He walked for a long time carefully and found no beasts were out there. He thought his family’s worries were unnecessary. And he became relaxed as he walked. Just at that moment, he saw a fierce(凶猛的) tiger running to him and he climbed onto a tree nearby at once.
The tiger roared(咆哮) around the tree and even jumped to reach the man. The young man was too scared to hold the tree and fell right on the back of the tiger. Full of fear, he had to hold the tiger tightly. The tiger thought that must be a giant beast. So it was afraid and started running madly.
People on the road didn’t know what happened and said, “Look at the young man. He is riding a tiger!” “Cool!” “Superman!”
Hearing these words, the young man was very angry. “Why can’t they see I’m suffering a lot? Don’t they understand I am in fear and almost scared to death?” he said to himself.
46. How did the young man feel when he saw the tiger?
A. excited. B. scared. C. surprised. D. bored.
47. The tiger was afraid because ________.
A. it was old and weak B. the young man was very strong

【解析】
【分析】本文讲述了一个年轻人在去一个村子的路上,遇见了一只老虎。他爬到了树上,由于过于害怕,掉在了老虎背上。老虎认为那一定是一只巨大的野兽,它也害怕了,开始疯狂地奔跑。路上的人不明真相,认为那个年轻人很酷,是超人。而年轻人听到这些话,感到非常生气。他认为他们不理解他,看不到他的痛苦,他的害怕。
【46题详解】
推理判断题。根据第2段最后一句“Just at that moment, he saw a fierce(凶猛的) tiger running to him and he climbed onto a tree nearby at once.(他看见一只凶猛的老虎向他跑来,他立刻爬上了附近的一棵树。)”以及第3段“The young man was too scared to hold the tree and fell right on the back of the tiger.”(那年轻人吓得拿不动那棵树,直接倒在老虎背上。)”可以推知这个年轻人看见老虎很害怕,故选B。
【47题详解】
细节题。根据第3段最后二句“The tiger thought that must be a giant beast. So it was afraid and started running madly.”(老虎认为那一定是一只巨大的野兽。所以它害怕了,开始疯狂地奔跑。)可知“老虎害怕,因为它把年轻人误认为是一头巨兽”,故选D。
【48题详解】
主旨题。最后两段描述了“路人看见那个年轻人骑在老虎上,认为很酷,是超人。而年轻人听到这些话,感到非常生气。他认为他们不理解他,看不到他的痛苦,他的害怕。” 可知我们不应该盲目崇拜别人。故选C。

Hao Jixin often works as a volunteer traffic guide at busy crossings in Beijing. Her job is to give riders and drivers advice on how to keep safe.
Hao only learned to ride a motorcycle (摩托车) a few years ago. She is a member of a motorcycle club. The club summoned everyone to volunteer. Their main job is to ask people to follow the traffic rules at the crossings each weekend.
Li Ping set up this club in the 1980s. She said, “As motorcycle riders, we should always remember that following the traffic rules is the most important.” As a result, no matter who wanted to join the club, they must promise to follow the traffic rules.
Another member, Su Lijun, who leads a team of motorcycle riders at the club, always warns riders that they shouldn’t race against others on the roads. And as a volunteer, he often uses his own experience to guide other riders.
Members of the club all think it necessary to give road safety advice to the young. That’s because their bad riding habits always make them break the traffic rules and also make people think badly of them. Some of them can even cause traffic accidents and make some people lose their lives unluckily.
49. What does the underlined word “summoned” mean in Chinese?
A. 阻止 B. 号召 C. 反对 D. 质疑
50. What is the most important when riding motorcycles according to Li Ping?
A. Feelings. B. Speed. C. Environment. D. Safety.
51. Why do the members think it’s necessary to offer safety advice to the young?
A. Because some young people often break the traffic rules.
B. Because young people don’t know how to ride.
C. Because the members want to show how experienced they are.
D. Because the members don’t like the way young people ride bicycles.
52. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Join the Volunteer Group B. Develop Good Habits
C. Keep Safe on the Road D. Start a Useful Club
【答案】49. B 50. D 51. A 52. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍了摩托车俱乐部的三位志愿者关于保护马路安全的做法。
【49题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段“The club summoned everyone to volunteer. Their main job is to ask people to follow the traffic rules at the crossings each weekend.”可知,他们的主要工作是要求人们每个周末在十字路口遵守交通规则。由此推知这个俱乐部号召大家当志愿者,summoned的意思是“号召”,故选B。
【50题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“As motorcycle riders, we should always remember that following the traffic rules is the most important.”可知,作为摩托车手,我们应该永远记住遵守交通规则是最重要的。由此推知安全是最重要的。故选D。
【51题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Members of the club all think it necessary to give road safety advice to the young. That’s because their bad riding habits always make them break the traffic rules...”可知,俱乐部成员都认为有必要给年轻人提供道路安全建议,因为他们不良的骑行习惯总是让他们违反交通规则。故选A。
【52题详解】
最佳标题题。通过全文可知,本文主要介绍了摩托车俱乐部的三位志愿者关于保护马路安全的做法,所以最佳标题是“在路上保持安全”。故选C。

阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题后面的词数要求)。
Different countries and different people have different manners. We must find out their customs so that they will not think us ill-mannered (不礼貌). Here are examples of the things that a person with a good education does or does not do.
If you visit a Chinese family, you should knock at the door first. When the door opens, you will not move before the host says, “Come in, please.” After you enter the room, you would not si t down until the host asks you to take a seat. When a cup of tea is put on a tea table before you or sent to your hand, you will say “Thank you” and receive it with two hands, not one hand, or they will think you are ill-mannered. Before entering a house in Japan, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In European countries, even though shoes sometimes become very dirty, this is not done. In a Malay house, a visitor never finishes the food on the table. He leaves a little to show that he has had enough. In England, a visitor always finishes a drink or the food to show that he has enjoyed it. This will make the host pleased.
53. When can you enter the room if you visit a friend in China? (不超过 10 个词)

【54题详解】
根据“Before entering a house in Japan, it is good manners to take off your shoes.”可知,在日本进入一所房子做客之前要脱鞋。故填In Japan.

【答案】例文
Dear schoolmates,
The rubbish sorting activity has been on for several months in our school, but the environment hasn’t got better. Why? Here are my opinions.
There are mainly two problems. First, many students haven’t realized the importance of protecting the environment. They are still throwing rubbish everywhere. Second, for students who want to make a change, they have no idea how to sort the rubbish. To deal with these problems, I suggest our school should give talks on rubbish sorting so that we students can learn how to deal with the rubbish. What’s more, teachers or class leaders can check if students put rubbish in the right place more often.
I think if we all make an effort, our school is sure to become a better place.

The olive (橄榄) tree probably first grew in southern Asia. And then it spread to Mediterranean (地中海的) countries about 6,000 years ago. Since then, it has been important in Mediterranean people’s lives.
The olive tree grows in rocky places and it doesn’t need much water. Its fruit can be made into olive oil. People have used olive oil to cook dishes for centuries. But they haven’t only used it for cooking. Some ancient cultures believed that it was as useful as medicine. In modern times, people still use olive oil both for its taste and its health advantages.
Olive oil has also been an important product in the business and culture of Mediterranean countries. In ancient Greece, for example, anyone who cut down an olive tree was heavily punished. Winners at the Olympic Games wore wreaths (花环) which were made of olive branches (树枝). Sometimes winners were also given a prize of olive oil. People from Greece built ships so that they could use olive oil for trade. But it was the Romans who grew the olive tree in the rest of southern Europe and northern Africa.
Today, olive oil is still a very valuable product, and many different kinds of olive oil are sold in countries all over the world.

The young man remembered these words and began his trip.
He walked for a long time carefully and found no beasts were out there. He thought his family’s worries were unnecessary. And he became relaxed as he walked. Just at that moment, he saw a fierce(凶猛的) tiger running to him and he climbed onto a tree nearby at once.
The tiger roared(咆哮) around the tree and even jumped to reach the man. The young man was too scared to hold the tree and fell right on the back of the tiger. Full of fear, he had to hold the tiger tightly. The tiger thought that must be a giant beast. So it was afraid and started running madly.
People on the road didn’t know what happened and said, “Look at the young man. He is riding a tiger!” “Cool!” “Superman!”
Hearing these words the young man was very angry. “Why can’t they see I’m suffering a lot? Don’t they understand I am in fear and almost scared to death?” he said to himself.

Hao Jixin often works as a volunteer traffic guide at busy crossings in Beijing. Her job is to give riders and drivers advice on how to keep safe.
Hao only learned to ride a motorcycle (摩托车) a few years ago. She is a member of a motorcycle club. The club summoned everyone to volunteer. Their main job is to ask people to follow the traffic rules at the crossings each weekend.
Li Ping set up this club in the 1980s. She said, “As motorcycle riders, we should always remember that following the traffic rules is the most important.” As a result, no matter who wanted to join the club, they must promise to follow the traffic rules.
Another member, Su Lijun, who leads a team of motorcycle riders at the club, always warns riders that they shouldn’t race against others on the roads. And as a volunteer, he often uses his own experience to guide other riders.
Members of the club all think it necessary to give road safety advice to the young. That’s because their bad riding habits always make them break the traffic rules and also make people think badly of them. Some of them can even cause traffic accidents and make some people lose their lives unluckily.
49. What does the underlined word “summoned” mean in Chinese?
A. 阻止 B. 号召 C. 反对 D. 质疑
50. What is the most important when riding motorcycles according to Li Ping?
A. Feelings. B. Speed. C. Environment. D. Safety.
51. Why do the members think it’s necessary to offer safety advice to the young?
A. Because some young people often break the traffic rules.
B Because young people don’t know how to ride.
C. Because the members want to show how experienced they are.
D. Because the members don’t like the way young people ride bicycles.
52. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Join the Volunteer Group B. Develop Good Habits
C. Keep Safe on the Road D. Start a Useful Club

阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题后面的词数要求)。
Different countries and different people have different manners. We must find out their customs so that they will not think us ill-mannered (不礼貌). Here are examples of the things that a person with a good education does or does not do.
If you visit a Chinese family, you should knock at the door first. When the door opens, you will not move before the host says, “Come in, please.” After you enter the room, you would not si t down until the host asks you to take a seat. When a cup of tea is put on a tea table before you or sent to your hand, you will say “Thank you” and receive it with two hands, not one hand, or they will think you are ill-mannered. Before entering a house in Japan, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In European countries, even though shoes sometimes become very dirty, this is not done. In a Malay house, a visitor never finishes the food on the table. He leaves a little to show that he has had enough. In England, a visitor always finishes a drink or the food to show that he has enjoyed it. This will make the host pleased.
