考查强调句。So +主语+助动词/be动词/情态动词,表示对别人说过的话表示赞同;so +助动词/be动词/情态动词+主语,表示另外的人或事物也符合上述情况。所以选B。根据“We all like his voice.”可知,空处是对前一句的赞同,应该使用“so + 主语 + 助动词”的结构,原句中sings是实义动词,所以该结构中助动词用does。故选C。

【解析】
【详解】句意:——你知道吉姆在哪里吗?我有重要的事情要告诉他。——我刚才看到他在操场上看书。你可以去那里找他。
考查宾语从句的语序。宾语从句应使用陈述句语序,因此排除A选项。根据“just now”可知,看到他在操场上看书是刚才发生的事情,但询问他现在的位置,应该用现在时态,因此排除C选项。故选B。

Fenghuang, built in 1704 in Hunan, doesn’t look like a bird, but its name means “phoenix” in Chinese. The town is really as beautiful as the mythical (神话的) bird. The stilted (吊脚的) buildings on both sides of the Tuojiang River make the area look like a scene from a postcard.
Shangdong’s Tai’erzhuang, which was built in 1639, lies in the north, while most water towns are in the south. The town lies on the bank of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.

China covers large areas and has a great population. Different living habits have always been an interesting topic in the country. Recently, another difference between southern Chinese and northern Chinese became a hot one: The way people shop at markets.
People from southern China say that they always buy what they need for just one or two meals. It is normal for them to buy half of a Chinese cabbage, two potatoes and 0.25 kilograms of beef at a time.
However, one may be laughed at if he does this in the north. Instead, buying vegetables and meat enough for a week is usual.
Also, you can buy a small amount(数量) of fruit, such as a single apple or pear, each time in the south. Shopkeepers even help you peel( 去 皮 ) and cut them. But shopkeepers in the north hardly offer such service. And many fruits are sold in baskets and boxes.The difference could be due to the different weather.
Food can be kept for a long time in the north, as it is usually cold and dry there. Many northern Chinese have the habit of keeping food, especially for the long winter. But the hot and wet weather in the south makes southern Chinese buy just enough food for one meal or one day, or else the food may go bad.
31. In southern China, at a time people usually buy .
A. a small amount of food B. a large amount of food
C. enough food for a week D. a lot of meat and vegetables
32. What may shopkeepers do if you buy fruits in the south?
A. They’ll well laugh at you.
B. They’ll only sell them in boxes and baskets.
C. They’ll peel and cut them for you.
D. They’ll only sell a single apple or pear.
33. What does the underlined phrase “due to” mean in Chinese?
A. 因为 B. 所以 C. 然而 D. 但
34. Why do many northern Chinese have the habit of keeping food?
A. Because the weather is always hot and wet.
B. Because food goes bad quickly and easily there.
C. Because the weather is usually cold and dry.
D. Because they live far away from the market.
35. What is the passage mainly talking about?
A. Different weather in China.
B. Different living habits in China.
C. Southern Chinese and northern Chinese.
D. Southern China and northern China.
【答案】31. A 32. C 33. A 34. C 35. B

【分析】中国是一个地域广阔、人口众多的国家,因此中国南方和北方有不同的生活习惯。而最近关于南、北方人们购物习惯的不同成了热门话题,短文给我们介绍了这些不同的购物习惯,并分析了背后的原因。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据短文第二段 “People from southern China say that they always buy what they need for just one or two meals. It is normal for them to buy half of a Chinese cabbage, two potatoes and 0.25 kilograms of beef at a time.”可知,南方人一次只买很少量的食物,只够一、两顿饭吃的。故选A。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据短文第四段 “Also, you can buy a small amount(数量) of fruit, such as a single apple or pear, each time in the south. Shopkeepers even help you peel( 去 皮 ) and cut them.”在南方,你买水果的时候,店主会帮助你给水果削皮、切好。故选C。
【33题详解】
词义猜测题。根据语境 “The difference could be due to the different weather.” “这个差别可能……不同的天气”,不同的天气情况造成了这个差别,因此due to是表示原因的,故选A。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据短文最后一段 “Food can be kept for a long time in the north, as it is usually cold and dry there.”可知,北方天气寒冷、干燥,可以长时间保存食物。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据短文第一段 “Different living habits have always been an interesting topic in the country.”可知,这篇短文讲述的是中国南方和北方不同的生活习惯。故选B。
【点睛】这是一篇说明文,短文介绍了中国南方人和北方人的不同生活习惯。短文主题明确,结构清晰,内容贴近学生们的日常生活,读来非常有趣。题型是阅读理解,考查学生们通过阅读短文掌握文章大意以及细节信息、猜测生词含义以及进行合理的推测和判断的能力。这篇文章的题目设置了细节理解、词义猜测和主旨大意。细节题往往比较简单,可以直接从文章中找到答案。如第2小题,抓住关键词shopkeeper, buy fruits, in the south即可。猜测生词的含义应注意结合语境,构词法的常识也可以帮助解题。第3小题要求猜测短语的意思,只能依靠语境解题。第5小题可以根据说明文体裁的特点解题,这种文体常为总分结构,第一段即点明文章主旨,所以答案在第一段中寻找即可。
C
During the summer holiday, some students might have been busy with traveling, summer camps and all kinds of courses. But a special group of middle school students in China decided to taste the hardship of life outside school.
Twelve students in a big city sold vegetables at a local market together. Within 12 days, they made more than 1,500 yuan. Among them, the oldest is 21 years old, while the youngest is just 10. They are all cousins in a big family and eight of them are from the countryside.
“Compared to traveling, such social practice connects us and makes us learn how tough our parents are,” said Dalin, 18, to the City Morning Post. Dalin and her 12-year-old brother Xiaolin came up with the idea.
They learned to work hard to sell their vegetables. Every morning they had to wake up at 3:00 and went to the farmers’ market to buy vegetables. Some of them went to the local market to take up a temporary stall (临时摊位). They began to sell vegetables at about 6:30 in the morning. They peddled (吆喝) loudly to attract customers.
After a few days, they learned a lot, too. For example, it was better to put vegetables in order and bigger ones on top. When the vegetables are too heavy, they should give customers one more bag. When they finally packed up and went home, they had a small meeting. Everyone wrote down what they heard and shared their feelings.
“We are tired,” said Dalin, “but we gained a lot. ”
36. The cousins decided to sell vegetables to .

“I never realized there were people who didn’t have a home or food before,” said Kaitlin, who is now sixteen. “I knew there was something I had to do about that.”
Kaitlin’s dream to end poverty (贫困) started when she was visiting her father, who worked for the homeless.
In 2011, when Kaitlin was eight years old, she started raising money to build a playground. “It took me two years,” she said. “We started small. We wanted to do something to make a difference.”
At the age of thirteen, Kaitlin visited Central America, and saw people going hungry and families living in houses made of cardboard. That year, she set Kids on a Mission, which has helped hundreds of people there.
“The rooms were smaller than my bedroom, but there would be eight people living in each one,” Kaitlin said. “We also got to see the dirty rivers that those people were drinking out of.”
Providing clean drinking water, food and clothes for people living in poverty is now an important task for Kids on a Mission. “This young lady is changing the hearts of people, and also changing the world,” said the headmaster of Kaitlin’s school.
41. The job of Kaitlin’s father was to ___________ .
A. build playgrounds B. sell food

In New York you can travel by subway, bus, taxi and car. The subway runs on the railroad lines under the city. ___47___ Traveling by subway is the fastest way to get around the city.
The second way to travel around the city is by public bus. ___48___ This is because the bus moves in road traffic which is often heavy.

五、情景交际(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
51. 你想了解Bob对居住在那里的看法,你可以这么问:
Bob, __________________________?
【答案】how do you like living there/what do you think of living there
【解析】
【详解】根据题干可知,应该问“你觉得住在那里怎么样?”询问对方对某件事物的看法,可以用固定句型How do you like.../What do you think of...。live there表示“住在那里”。故填how do you like living there/what do you think of living there。
52. 你想知道Tom去哪儿了,可以这样问他:
Tom, __________________________
【答案】where have you been?
【解析】
【详解】根据情景你可以这样问“你去哪里了”,用where引导特殊疑问句,时态应为现在完成时,结构为have+done。故填where have you been?
53. 你想关心Mike的旅行情况,可以这样问他:
__________________________, Mike?
【答案】How was your trip/Did you have a good trip
【解析】
【详解】你想关心Mike的旅行情况,可以问他“你的旅行怎么样”或“你的旅途愉快吗”,“你的旅行怎么样”为特殊疑问句“How was your trip”,“你的旅途愉快吗”为一般疑问句“Did you have a good trip”,故填How was your trip/Did you have a good trip。
54. 你想提醒你的同学铃声响了,可以这样表达:
Listen! __________________________.
【答案】There goes the bell
【解析】
【详解】 根据情景可知,铃声正在响。句子可以用there引导的倒装句来表达此意,结构为there+谓语动词+主语,但此结构中要用一般现在时代替现在进行时;因为主语the bell“铃声”是第三人称单数,所以谓语动词要用goes,表示“铃声在响”。故填There goes the bell。
55. 你想夸那个工程师真优秀,你可以这样当面感叹道:
__________________________ you are!
【答案】What an excellent engineer
【解析】
【详解】根据情景可知,可以说“你是个多么优秀的工程师啊!”此处可以what感叹句,结构为:What+a/an+形容词+单数名词+主语+谓语。excellent“优秀的”,形容词,以元音音素开头,不定冠词应用an;engineer“工程师”,名词。故填What an excellent engineer。

These days, tall modern buildings are rising everywhere. But if you go to a Chinese water town, you can still take a trip back in time. And now, CNN has chosen China’s four of the country’s most beautiful water towns.
The village of Zhouzhuang in Jiangsu was built in 1086 and it is crossed with canals (运河). Taking a boat ride through town, the red lanterns might make you think of China’s romantic past.
Hongcun in Anhui is 900 years old. It looks like a big ox. The mountain is the head, the town is the body and the bridges are legs. You can enjoy lakes and beautiful Anhui-style buildings in Hongcun.
Fenghuang, built in 1704 in Hunan, doesn’t look like a bird, but its name means “phoenix” in Chinese. The town is really as beautiful as the mythical (神话的) bird. The stilted (吊脚的) buildings on both sides of the Tuojiang River make the area look like a scene from a postcard.
Shangdong’s Tai’erzhuang, which was built in 1639, lies in the north, while most water towns are in the south. The town lies on the bank of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. It was a busy trading center during the Ming and Qing dynasties. In the town, there are ancient bridges, a canal and temples, making you think of its past glory (辉煌).
26. What does Hongcun look like?
A. A red lantern. B. A big ox.
C. A mythical bird. D. A scene from a postcard.
27. What can you see if you visit Fenghuang?
A. The Grand Canal. B. The real phoenix.
C. The stilted buildings. D. The ancient canals and temples.
28. Which town of the four has the longest history?
A. Zhouzhuang. B. Hongcun. C. Fenghuang. D. Tai’erzhuang.
29. What can you know from the passage about the four towns?
A. All of them lie in the south. B. They used to be trading centers.
C. All of them are full of lakes. D. They can make you take a trip back in time.
30. The writer wrote the passage to ________.
A. show Chinese traditional culture B. protect the four water towns in China
C. introduce four beautiful water towns D. tell the difference among the four towns
B
China covers large areas and has a great population. Different living habits have always been an interesting topic in the country. Recently, another difference between southern Chinese and northern Chinese became a hot one: The way people shop at markets.
People from southern China say that they always buy what they need for just one or two meals. It is normal for them to buy half of a Chinese cabbage, two potatoes and 0.25 kilograms of beef at a time.
However, one may be laughed at if he does this in the north. Instead, buying vegetables and meat enough for a week is usual.
Also, you can buy a small amount(数量) of fruit, such as a single apple or pear, each time in the south. Shopkeepers even help you peel( 去 皮 ) and cut them. But shopkeepers in the north hardly offer such service. And many fruits are sold in baskets and boxes.The difference could be due to the different weather.
Food can be kept for a long time in the north, as it is usually cold and dry there. Many northern Chinese have the habit of keeping food, especially for the long winter. But the hot and wet weather in the south makes southern Chinese buy just enough food for one meal or one day, or else the food may go bad.
31. In southern China, at a time people usually buy .
A. a small amount of food B. a large amount of food
C. enough food for a week D. a lot of meat and vegetables
32. What may shopkeepers do if you buy fruits in the south?
A. They’ll well laugh at you.
B. They’ll only sell them in boxes and baskets.
C. They’ll peel and cut them for you.
D. They’ll only sell a single apple or pear.
33. What does the underlined phrase “due to” mean in Chinese?
A. 因为 B. 所以 C. 然而 D. 但是
34. Why do many northern Chinese have the habit of keeping food?
A. Because the weather is always hot and wet.
B. Because food goes bad quickly and easily there.
C. Because the weather is usually cold and dry.
D. Because they live far away from the market.
35. What is the passage mainly talking about?
A. Different weather in China.
B. Different living habits in China.
C. Southern Chinese and northern Chinese.
D. Southern China and northern China.
C
During the summer holiday, some students might have been busy with traveling, summer camps and all kinds of courses. But a special group of middle school students in China decided to taste the hardship of life outside school.
Twelve students in a big city sold vegetables at a local market together. Within 12 days, they made more than 1,500 yuan. Among them, the oldest is 21 years old, while the youngest is just 10. They are all cousins in a big family and eight of them are from the countryside.
“Compared to traveling, such social practice connects us and makes us learn how tough our parents are,” said Dalin, 18, to the City Morning Post. Dalin and her 12-year-old brother Xiaolin came up with the idea.
They learned to work hard to sell their vegetables. Every morning they had to wake up at 3:00 and went to the farmers’ market to buy vegetables.

“I never realized there were people who didn’t have a home or food before,” said Kaitlin, who is now sixteen. “I knew there was something I had to do about that.”
Kaitlin’s dream to end poverty (贫困) started when she was visiting her father, who worked for the homeless.
In 2011, when Kaitlin was eight years old, she started raising money to build a playground. “It took me two years,” she said. “We started small. We wanted to do something to make a difference.”
At the age of thirteen, Kaitlin visited Central America, and saw people going hungry and families living in houses made of cardboard. That year, she set Kids on a Mission, which has helped hundreds of people there.
“The rooms were smaller than my bedroom, but there would be eight people living in each one,” Kaitlin said. “We also got to see the dirty rivers that those people were drinking out of.”
Providing clean drinking water, food and clothes for people living in poverty is now an important task for Kids on a Mission. “This young lady is changing the hearts of people, and also changing the world,” said the headmaster of Kaitlin’s school.
