二、单项选择(共15小题, 每小题1分,计15分)
21. —What do you think of the film Home Coming?
—Well, I’ve never seen ________ more moving one. It’s worth ________ second time.
A. a; / B. the; the C. a; the D. a; a
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你觉得电影《万里归途》怎么样?——嗯,我从未见过更感人的电影。值得再看一遍。
考查冠词。a不定冠词,表泛指,放在辅音音素开头的单词前面;/零冠词;the定冠词,表特指。第一个空格后面的词语是more moving one,表示泛指,more是以辅音音素开头的单词,应用不定冠词a修饰; 第二个空后面的词语是second time,应用不定冠词a,表示“又一次,再一次”。故选D。
22. The music ________ is liked by people all over the world.
A. with a strong local color B. with strong local color
C. has a strong local color D. has strong local color
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:这种音乐因其强烈的地方色彩而受到全世界人们的喜爱。
考查介词短语。with strong local color是介词短语作定语,修饰主语The music,表示“带有浓厚地方特色的”;这里的color也是指色彩这一抽象概念,因此是不可数名词,不用a修饰。故选B。
23. — How are you today ?
— I’m feeling even ________ . I don’t think the medicine works .
A. better B. worse C. happier D. unhappier
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——今天你怎么样?——我感觉更糟了。我认为这药不起作用。
考查形容词的比较级辨析。better 更好的;worse 更糟糕的;happier更高兴的;unhappier更不高兴的。根据“I’m feeling even...I don’t think the medicine works .”可知此空指觉得更糟糕。故选B。
24. Danny’s father moved to China _______. Two years later, he _________ Danny’s mother.
A. in his thirty; married to B. in his thirty’s; married
C. in his thirtieth; married to D. in his thirties; married
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:丹尼的父亲在三十多岁时搬到中国。两年后,他娶了丹尼的母亲。
考查年龄段的表达和及物动词用法。“在某人几岁时”应表达为“in one’s+数字基数词复数”;marry是及物动词,表示“与某人结婚”时,后面通常直接跟宾语。故选D。
25. They were playing soccer on the playground ________ the storm came.
A. as soon as B. as long as C. when D. while
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:暴风雨来临时,他们正在操场上踢足球。
考查时间状语从句。as soon as一……就……;as long as只要;when当……时,表示主句的动作和从句的动作同时或先后发生,when引导的从句谓语动词是短暂性或延续性动词;while与……同时,表示两个动作同时进行,while引导的从句,谓语动词是延续性动词。根据题干从句 “ the storm came.”可知谓语动词是短暂性动词,结合句意,所以用when。故选C。
26. —Oh, so many people are standing outside the hall.________ will the film start?
—________seven o’clock.
A. How soon; Not until B. How long; Not until
C. How soon; Until D. How long; Until
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——哦,很多人都站在大厅。电影还要多久开始?——直到7点钟才开始。
考查特殊疑问句及答语。how soon多久,常用在一般将来时态的句子中;how long多长,提问“for+一段时间”,句中动词要用延续性;根据语境可知,第一句中用的是将来时,表达动作还有多久,所以用how soon提问;而本题中的动词是start,是短暂性动词,所以应该用not until,如果是延续性动词则用until,故选A。
27. At last, the girl was made _________ to music and began to do her homework.
A. stop listening B. to stop to listen
C. to stop listening D. stop to listen
【答案】C
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】句意:最后,这个女孩被要求停止听音乐,开始做她的家庭作业。be made to do sth被让做某事,stop to do sth停下来去做另外一件事;stop doing sth停止正在做的事情。根据空前was made可知,句子是被动语态,make用于被动语态时,其用法是be made to do sth,故排除选项A和D,根据空后“to music and began to do her homework”可知,是停止听音乐,然后去做另外一件事,所以用stop doing sth to do sth。故选C。
28. It is well known that Suzhou is famous ________ its silk and Qi Baishi was known ________ an artist in the world.
A. as; for B. as; as C. for; as D. for; for
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:众所周知,苏州因它的丝绸而闻名于世,齐白石作为一名画家而出名。
考查介词辨析。as作为;for因为。be famous for因……而闻名;be famous as作为……而出名。根据“its silk”可知是因丝绸而闻名,用介词for;根据“an artist”可知是作为画家而出名,应用as。故选C。
29. Time waits for no man. But some people won’t realize the ________ of time until it’s gone.
A. result B. knowledge C. reason D. value
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:时间不等人。但是有些人直到时间流逝才意识到时间的价值。
考查名词辨析。result结果;knowledge知识;reason原因;value价值。根据“Time waits for no man. But some people won’t realize the…of time until it’s gone.”可知,此处表示有的人直到时间流逝才意识到时间的价值。故选D。
30. —Your spoken English is all very good. How do you improve it?
—Thanks. Mrs. Wang always asks us to ________ conversations in English classes.
A. give up B. set up C. make up D. look up
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你们的口语都很好。你们是如何提高的?——谢谢。王老师总是在英语课上让我们用英语对话。
考查动词短语。give up放弃;set up建立;make up编造;look up查找。根据“Your spoken English all very good”和“conversations in English classes”可知,口语好是因为在英语课上总是用英语编对话而练就的。故选C。
31. —How cool! The cars can drive by themselves.
—It’s reported that they ________ by computers inside.
A. controlled B. will be controlled C. are controlled D. are controlling
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——太酷了!汽车可以自动驾驶。——据报道,它们是由内部的电脑控制的。
考查被动语态。controlled控制,一般过去时;will be controlled将被控制,一般将来时的被动语态;are controlled被控制,一般现在时的被动语态;are controlling正在控制,现在进行时。主语“they”指的是汽车,与动词“control”存在被动关系,且时态为一般现在时,故此处要用一般现在时的被动语态。故选C。
32. Mr. Lee will ________ the awards ________ the top three athletes at the sports meeting.
A. present, with B. present, to C. be present, with D. be presented , to
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:李先生将在运动会上为前三名运动员颁奖。
考查一般将来时和动词短语。“Mr. Lee”是动作的执行者,该句为主动语态,助动词will后跟动词原形,故第一空填“present”;present sth. to sb.“向某人赠送某物”,动词短语,故第二空填to。故选B。
33. — I am wondering ________.
— Whatever the result is, don’t be too hard on yourself.
A. that I can pass the test B. when I have prepared for the test
C. whether I can get a high mark in the test D. if I am ready for the test these days or not
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我想知道我是否能在考试中取得高分。——无论结果如何,都不要对自己太苛刻。
考查宾语从句。that I can pass the test我能通过考试; when I have prepared for the test我什么时候准备好考试;whether I can get a high mark in the test我是否能在考试中取得高分;if I am ready for the test these days or not我这几天是否准备好了考试。根据“wondering”可知,空后应用if或whether引导宾语从句;根据“Whatever the result is, don’t be too hard on yourself.”可知,此处应表示“我想知道我是否能在考试中取得高分”,所以应用whether引导宾语从句。故选C。
34. —Your father hardly has any free time for you, ________?
—________. He is busy with his research all the time.
A. hasn’t he; No, he hasn’t B. has he; Yes, he has
C. doesn’t he; Yes, he does D. does he; No, he doesn’t
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你爸爸几乎没有空闲时间陪你,是吗?——是的,他没有。他一直在忙他的研究。
考查反意疑问句。第一句中has是实义动词,因此反意疑问句需加助动词does,排除A和B;前面句中有“hardly”译为“几乎没有”,表示否定含义,因此后面的反意疑问句应用肯定形式,并且根据“He is busy with his research all the time.”可知是没有时间,为否定回答。故选D。
35. —Let me carry that for you. It looks very heavy.
—________. I’m quite out of breath.
A. No, thanks B. That’s very kind of you
C. Yes, of course D. I think I can manage it myself
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——让我来帮你拿。它看起来很重。——你真是太好了。我上气不接下气。
考查情景交际。No, thanks不用了,谢谢;That’s very kind of you你真是太好了;Yes, of course是,当然了;I think I can manage it myself我想我自己能行。根据“Let me carry that for you. It looks very heavy.”和“I’m quite out of breath.”可知,答话人应该是接受了说话人的帮助,对说话人的行为表示感激。故选B。

【36题详解】
句意:和其他日子一样,这是朋友和家人聚在一起吃饭、聊天和争论的时间。
call打电话;wait等待;gather聚会;fight打架。根据第一段“If Christmas, Thanksgiving and the Fourth of July are the biggest official holidays… for food, chat and arguments.”可知,圣诞节、感恩节和7月4日是美国最大的法定假日,这些节日是家人、朋友聚会吃饭、聊天和争论的时候,当然,超级碗周日无疑也是最大的非官方假日,所以当然也是家人、朋友聚会吃饭、聊天和争论的时候,故gather“聚会”符合语境。故选C。
【37题详解】
句意:然而,一些生活在社会边缘的人错过了这种特殊的联系。
hate讨厌;value价值;notice注意到;miss错过。根据第一段“Like those other days, it’s a time for friends and family … that special connection.”可知,虽然很多盛大的节日是家人、朋友聚会吃饭、聊天和争论的时候,但对于那些生活在社会边缘的人就错过了这种特殊的联系。由此可知,此处miss“错过”符合语境。故选D。
【38题详解】
句意:梅尔·卡尔曼森认为他们也应该庆祝这个重要的日子。
respect尊重;recognize认识;celebrate庆祝;remember记得。根据第二段“Meir Kalmanson thought they… men to join him.”可知,因为卡尔曼森认为他们也应该庆祝这个重要的日子,所以在2017年2月的一个寒冷的星期天,当他前往纽约市一家俱乐部参加超级碗派对时,他邀请了六名无家可归的人加入他一起庆祝。故celebrate“庆祝”符合语境。故选C。
【39题详解】
句意:因此,在2017年2月的一个寒冷的星期天,当他前往纽约市一家俱乐部参加超级碗派对时,他邀请了六名无家可归的人加入他。
headed朝(某方向)行进;looked看;turned变得;pointed指着。根据第二段“as he …to a Super Bowl party at a New York City club”可知,是去了纽约市一家俱乐部参加超级碗派对,headed“朝(某方向)行进”符合语境。故选A。
【40题详解】
句意:因此,在2017年2月的一个寒冷的星期天,当他前往纽约市一家俱乐部参加超级碗派对时,他邀请了六名无家可归的人加入他。
loyal忠诚的;homeless无家可归的;brave勇敢的;honest诚实的。根据第三段“Over burgers, wings and soda, Kalmanson and his homeless guests watched a football match.”可知,他邀请了六名无家可归的人吃汉堡,鸡翅和苏打水,还和他们观看了足球比赛,由此可知,此处“邀请了六名无家可归的人参加派对”,符合语境。故选B。
【41题详解】
句意:卡尔曼森想象这个场景如同有“温暖,令人兴奋的能量”。
describes描绘;treats招待;imagines认为,想象;records记录。根据第三段“Kalmanson …the scene as having a ‘warm, exciting energy’”可知,imagine…as…把……当做……;想象……如同……。卡尔曼森想象这个场景如同有“温暖,令人兴奋的能量”。所以,imagine…as…“把……当做……;想象……如同……”符合语境。故选A。
【42题详解】
句意:卡尔曼森说,“结果,这些人觉得他们是某种东西的一部分。”
As usual像平常一样;Even so尽管如此;As a result结果;At the same time同时。根据第三段“If you walked in, you couldn’t tell who was homeless and who wasn’t.”和“…the men felt that they were part of …”可知,根据语境翻译,后一句是前一句的结果。如果你走进来,你无法分辨谁无家可归,谁不是。结果就是,这些无家可归的人觉得他们是某种东西的一部分。所以,As a result“结果”符合语境。故选C。
【43题详解】
句意:卡尔曼森说,“结果,这些人觉得他们是某种东西的一部分。”
nothing没有什么;something某事,某物;anything任何事物;everything一切事物。根据第三段“If you walked in, you couldn’t tell who was homeless and who wasn’t… the men felt that they were part of …”可知,如果你走进来,你无法分辨谁无家可归,谁不是。所以,结果就是,这些人觉得他们是某种东西的一部分。这也就是说这些无家可归的人已经融入到了派对的氛围之中,认为自己就是其中的一份子。所以something“某事,某物”符合语境。故选B。
【44题详解】
句意:他认为派对就这一次。
holiday假期;talk谈话;game游戏;party晚会。根据最后一段“He thought that the …was a one-off. But the following year, when friends and YouTube fans asked about the next Super Bowl party, he knew the event had already …a life of its own.”可知,他和六个无家可归的人一起开派对,他以为派对就这一次,没想到,他的朋友和YouTube粉丝却询问下一次的超级碗派对,所以根据语境,party“晚会,派对”符合题意。故选D。
【45题详解】
句意:但第二年,当朋友和YouTube粉丝询问下一次超级碗派对时,他知道这个活动已经有了自己的生命。
brought back拿回来;got through完成;developed into发展成为;taken on开始承担或处理。根据最后一段“He thought that the party was a one-off. But the following year…a life of its own.”可知,通过他和六个无家可归的人一起开派对,他本以为派对就这一次,没想到,他的朋友和YouTube粉丝却询问下一次的超级碗派对,所以,他知道这个活动已经有了自己的生命。taken on“开始承担或处理”符合语境。故选D。
【46题详解】
句意:因此,卡尔曼森创办了慈善组织Super Soul Party。
started开始;changed变化;grew成长;left离开。结合第三段最后一句话“he knew the event had already taken on a life of its own.”及“So Kalmanson …the charitable organization Super Soul Parties.”可知,因为他知道这个活动已经得到了人们的认可,所以,他就创办了慈善组织Super Soul Party,所以,started“开始”符合语境。故选A。
【47题详解】
句意:他与志愿者和无家可归者收容所合作,在比赛日组织聚会。
encourage鼓励;organize组织;report报道;support支持。根据最后一段“So Kalmanson started the charitable organization Super Soul … spread the celebrations to every state.”可知,卡尔曼森创办了Super Soul Party之后,就与志愿者和无家可归者收容所合作,积极组织聚会。所以organize“组织”符合语境。故选B。

We were locked in a darkness room, Ned tried to escape from the submarine. I remembered that unforgettable day. When morning came, we saw the monster behind us. After fighting against it, Conseil, Ned and I were thrown into the sea and stood on the monster. We thought it was a giant narwhal. In fact, it was a submarine. A few seconds later, eight men came out and pulled us into this room on the submarine.
Suddenly, two men entered. The tall man was Captain Nemo. He even knew everything we did with him. He asked us to promise not to escape. Finally, we reached an agreement.
Captain Nemo showed me the art gallery with many paintings by famous artists and a museum that contained many thousands of wonderful shells, pearls and other treasures from the sea. I had never seen such a good museum. “What a wonderful ship, it must have cost a fortune” “That’s true!” he replied. “I love it as if it were my child.”
A few days later, Captain Nemo invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island. About one hundred savages followed us and tried to come into the ship. Captain Nemo didn’t worry about them. When they put their hand on the rail,they all fell back and ran away. Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail. Anybody who touched it would receive an electric shock.
One day, he asked me to follow him to another room. A man lay on a bed with a very bad head wound. I looked at it. “What happened?” Captain Nemo answered, “Something broke in the engine. A heavy piece of metal hit his head.” He is going to die soon,” I said. “Nothing can save him.” Tears filled Captain Nemo's eyes, and he asked me to leave.
We sailed through a sea of milk and huge armies of shell sand, sometimes large crowds of sharks. I realized that I did not really want to escape.
54. Which is the correct order of the following statements?

b. We fought against the monster on the sea.
c. Captain Nemo showed me a lot of amazing things.

55. The underlined word “fortune” in paragraph 3 may mean _______.
A. luck B. money C. time D. life
56. Why didn’t Captain Nemo worry about the savages?
A. Because the number of the savages was too small.
B. Because Captain Nemo was optimistic.
C. Because Captain Nemo had a way to deal with them.
D. Because I could help him beat them.
57. According to the passage, which of the following is right?
A. Ned and I tried to escape. B. Captain Nemo cared about his member.
C. I found the journey boring. D. Conseil, Ned and I didn’t make any promise.
【答案】54. B 55. B 56. C 57. B
【解析】
【分析】这篇短文节选自《海底两万里》,“我”,Ned和Conseil上了Nemo船长的潜艇,欣赏了画廊,一起去森林打猎。文章着重刻画了Nemo船长这个人物,他智慧、勇敢,也有博爱之心。
【54题详解】
细节理解题。根据短文第一段“After fighting against it, Conseil, Ned and I were thrown into the sea and stood on the monster. We thought it was a giant narwhal. In fact, it was a submarine. A few seconds later, eight men came out and pulled us into this room on the submarine.”可知,首先“我”,Conseil和Ned与怪物作了一番斗争,然后他们被带到了潜水艇的一个房间。第三段“Captain Nemo showed me the art gallery with many paintings by famous artists and a museum that contained many thousands of wonderful shells, pearls and other treasures from the sea.”讲述了Nemo船长带我们看了一些很新奇的东西;第四段讲述了Nemo船长带我们出去打猎。正确的顺序应该是bdca。故选B。
【55题详解】
词义猜测题。根据语境“I had never seen such a good museum. “What a wonderful ship, it must have cost a fortune” “That’s true!” he replied.”“我从来没有见过这么好的博物馆。 ‘多么棒的一艘船啊!它一定花费……’”。由前面的cost“花费”并结合语境可知,这艘潜水艇一定值很多钱。因此fortune与money的意思接近,故选B。
【56题详解】
细节理解题。根据短文第四段“Captain Nemo didn’t worry about them. When they put their hand on the rail,they all fell back and ran away. Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail. Anybody who touched it would receive an electric shock.”可知,野蛮人跟着我们到了船这里,当他们把手放在栏杆上时,他们都向后倒并逃跑了。原来Nemo船长把电连装到了栏杆上,触摸它的人都会受到点击。C选项“因为Nemo船长有办法对方他们”符合文意,故选C。
【57题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“Captain Nemo answered, “Something broke in the engine. A heavy piece of metal hit his head.” He is going to die soon,” I said. “Nothing can save him.” Tears filled Captain Nemo's eyes, and he asked me to leave.”可知,Nemo船长的一个下属快要死了,他的眼里充满了泪水。由此可以看到Nemo船长非常关心他的船员。故选B。
C
Sometimes there’s nothing better than the “rush” you feel when you’re going at high speeds. Or the wonder of going somewhere new and different, climbing a mountain or enjoying extreme sports like snowboarding. These are the adventures we “thrill seekers (寻找刺激的人)” live for. But sometimes we also need to know when to slow down.
Recently, I went quad biking (摩托车越野), or ATV driving, on a track in the mountains. After a brief instructional exercise and what seemed like lots of waiting, we put on our helmets (头盔), started our engines and got onto the track. The sound of the engine was exciting. As I got more confident, I couldn’t help overtaking other drivers whenever I got the chance. Finally, the way forward opened up and I went ahead of the others. I turned toward a small hill and raced down. As I soon found out, this was a big mistake. My ATV turned over at full speed.
Luckily, I knew it was happening and pushed myself out of the way of the falling ATV. If I had not, I probably would have broken my leg beneath the weight of the ATV or even lost it. I might have even broken my neck. It ended up turning out fine, apart from some soreness (疼痛) in my chest for a week or so. This was a surprise for my friend. After seeing the accident, he said to me, “Dude, I thought you were dead.” Perhaps I could have died, if I hadn’t been lucky that day.
That event was one I’ll always remember for the adventure and the near-death experience. It’s good to be adventurous, but it’s still really important to be wise and careful too. So, go on adventures, but be smart while you’re on them!
58. What did the author do before starting his quad biking adventure?
A. He checked his ATV again and again. B. He shared his experience with other drivers.
C. He received some instruction and waited. D. He made a personal survey of the track.
59. What does the underlined word “overtaking” in paragraph 2 most likely mean?
A. Following. B. Directing. C. Going past. D. Talking with.
60. What happened when the author tried to race down a small hill?
A. He slowed down. B. He hit his friend’s ATV.
C. He broke his neck and leg. D. He lost control of his ATV.
61. What’s the main message the author wants to convey in the text?
A. Accidents are a natural part of adventures. B. It is fun to live an adventurous life.
C. Never be afraid of failure in life. D. Keep safety in mind while on an adventure.
【答案】58. C 59. C 60. D 61. D

China and India are leaders in improving global tree cover, a new study based on NASA research showed.
They took a 31.8 percent part together of the total global new leaf area between 2000 and 2017. China played a major role, adding 25 percent to this increase, and India added 6.8 percent, followed by Canada and Russia.
The study in the Nature Sustainability journal shows that more than 5.5 million square kilometers of green leaf area was added globally. Since 2000, there has been a 5 percent increase in global green cover, it said.
“The greening over the last twenty years shows an increase in leaf area on plants and trees which is as large as the area of the entire Amazon rainforest,” Chi Chen, a Boston University researcher and leader of the study told Nature Sustainability. Large plantation activities to protect forests in China contributed nearly 42 percent to the country’s green cover, and agriculture(农业) added another 32 percent. In India, 82 percent of the increase in leaf area was because of agriculture.
“China and India take up one-third of the greening, but hold only nine percent of the planet’s land area covered in green plants,” Chi Chen told NASA Earth Observatory. “That is a surprising finding, considering the land degradation(退化) in countries with large populations.”
Boston University’s research team first detected an increase in global green cover in the 1990s but were unsure what contributed to the increase. Finally, with the help of NASA’s Terra and Aqua satellites research, they managed to find out the increase in leaf cover from different areas and places.
62. Which country contributed to the largest increase in the global new leaf area?
A. China. B. India. C. Russia. D. Canada.
63. For what purpose did the author mention the Amazon rainforest?
A. To show the major role of rainforest. B. To explain the reason for developing agriculture.
C. To describe the difficulty in protecting forests. D. To show the great increase in global green cover.
64. What did Chi Chen think of the new finding?
A. Worrying. B. Interesting. C. Unexpected. D. Meaningless.
65. What does the underlined word “detected” probably mean?
A. Imagined. B. Discovered. C. Studied. D. Doubted.
【答案】62. A 63. D 64. C 65. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。美国国家航空航天局的卫星数据显示,中国和印度在2000年到2017年间,贡献了全球新增绿化面积的百分之三十多,为人类的环境保护作出了巨大贡献。
【62题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“China played a major role, adding 25 percent to this increase, and India added 6.8 percent, followed by Canada and Russia.”可知中国新增的森林面积最大,占25%。故选A。
【63题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“The greening over the last twenty years shows an increase in leaf area on plants and trees which is as large as the area of the entire Amazon rainforest,”可知过去20年里,全球新增绿化面积相当于一个亚马逊雨林,因此作者提到亚马逊雨林是来强调提高全球绿化覆盖的成效。故选D。
【64题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“That is a surprising finding, considering the land degradation(退化)in countries with large populations.”可知Chi Chen认为这是一个出乎意料的发现。故选C。
【65题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“Boston University’s research team first detected an increase … but were unsure what contributed to the increase. Finally, … they managed to find out the increase in leaf cover from different areas and places.”可推测处波士顿大学的研究小组首次“发现”了全球绿色覆盖的增加。故选B。

六、回答问题(共5小题,每小题2分,计10分)
阅读下列短文,根据短文内容回答问题,答案不超过10个词。
At seventeen minutes past four in the afternoon, while the passengers were in the main hall taking their lunch, a slight blow was felt on the Scotia (斯科舍号船), on the quarter a little behind the port wheel.
The Scotia had not run into something: something had run into it, and a cutting or sharp object rather than a blunt (不锋利的) one. The blow seemed so slight that nobody on board would have worried but for the shout of the hold-workers who rushed up on to the deck (甲板) .
“We’re sinking (下沉)! We’re sinking!”
At first the passengers were quite afraid but Captain Anderson quickly reassured (宽慰) them. In fact, the danger could not come at once. The Scotia, divided into seven parts, was sure to resist any leak with impunity.
Captain Anderson headed at once for the hold. He noticed that the fifth part had flooded; and the speed of the flooding proved that the hole was a quite big one. Very luckily, the boilers were not in this compartment, for the fires would have gone out at once.
Captain Anderson had the engines stopped at once, while one of the sailors dived to assess the damage (损坏). Shortly afterwards, the existence of a two-metre hole in the hull was confirmed. Such damage could not be repaired and the Scotia, its wheels half underwater, had to continue its journey in the same state. It was 300 miles from Cape Clear, and was three days late when it sailed into the company docks, having greatly worried Liverpool.
The engineers then carried out an inspection (检查) of the Scotia, which was in dry dock.
They couldn’t believe their eyes. Two and a half meters below the water-line appeared a neat hole in the form of an isosceles triangle (等腰三角形). The break in the board was perfectly clean, and could not have been cut with greater precision.
76. Where did the story take place, in the ocean or on land?
_____________________________________________________
77. How did the passengers feel at first?
______________________________________________________
78. Which part of the boat was flooded according to the story?
______________________________________________________
79. Who carried out the inspection of the Scotia?
______________________________________________________
80. What do you think of Captain Anderson?
______________________________________________________
【答案】76. In the ocean.
77. They felt quite afraid at first.
78. The fifth part.
79. The engineers.
80. He is brave enough to face danger.
【解析】
【导语】本文是名著《海底两万里》节选,讲述了斯科舍号船在海上遇险的故事。

【77题详解】

根据“He noticed that the fifth part had flooded;”可知,是船的第五部分被淹了。故填The fifth part.
【79题详解】
根据“The engineers then carried out an inspection (检查) of the Scotia, which was in dry dock.”可知,工程师们对斯科舍号进行了检查。故填The engineers.
【80题详解】
开放性作答,言之有理即可。根据全文可知,在斯科舍号船受到撞击后安德森船长很快让乘客们放心且立即停止了发动机并查找原因,因此安德森船长有足够的勇气面对危险。故填He is brave enough to face danger.

We were locked in a darkness room, Ned tried to escape from the submarine. I remembered that unforgettable day. When morning came, we saw the monster behind us. After fighting against it, Conseil, Ned and I were thrown into the sea and stood on the monster. We thought it was a giant narwhal. In fact, it was a submarine. A few seconds later, eight men came out and pulled us into this room on the submarine.
Suddenly, two men entered. The tall man was Captain Nemo. He even knew everything we did with him. He asked us to promise not to escape. Finally, we reached an agreement.
Captain Nemo showed me the art gallery with many paintings by famous artists and a museum that contained many thousands of wonderful shells, pearls and other treasures from the sea. I had never seen such a good museum. “What a wonderful ship, it must have cost a fortune” “That’s true!” he replied. “I love it as if it were my child.”
A few days later, Captain Nemo invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island. About one hundred savages followed us and tried to come into the ship. Captain Nemo didn’t worry about them. When they put their hand on the rail,they all fell back and ran away. Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail. Anybody who touched it would receive an electric shock.
One day, he asked me to follow him to another room. A man lay on a bed with a very bad head wound. I looked at it. “What happened?” Captain Nemo answered, “Something broke in the engine. A heavy piece of metal hit his head.” He is going to die soon,” I said. “Nothing can save him.” Tears filled Captain Nemo's eyes, and he asked me to leave.
We sailed through a sea of milk and huge armies of shell sand, sometimes large crowds of sharks. I realized that I did not really want to escape.
54. Which is the correct order of the following statements?
a. Captain Nemo invited me and my friends to go out.
b. We fought against the monster on the sea.
c. Captain Nemo showed me a lot of amazing things.
d. We were locked in darkness room.
A. a d b c B. b d c a C. d b c a D. c a b d
55. The underlined word “fortune” in paragraph 3 may mean _______.
A. luck B. money C. time D. life
56. Why didn’t Captain Nemo worry about the savages?
A. Because the number of the savages was too small.
B. Because Captain Nemo was optimistic.
C. Because Captain Nemo had a way to deal with them.
D. Because I could help him beat them.
57. According to the passage, which of the following is right?
A. Ned and I tried to escape. B. Captain Nemo cared about his member.
C. I found the journey boring. D. Conseil, Ned and I didn’t make any promise.
C
Sometimes there’s nothing better than the “rush” you feel when you’re going at high speeds. Or the wonder of going somewhere new and different, climbing a mountain or enjoying extreme sports like snowboarding. These are the adventures we “thrill seekers (寻找刺激人)” live for. But sometimes we also need to know when to slow down.
Recently, I went quad biking (摩托车越野), or ATV driving, on a track in the mountains. After a brief instructional exercise and what seemed like lots of waiting, we put on our helmets (头盔), started our engines and got onto the track. The sound of the engine was exciting. As I got more confident, I couldn’t help overtaking other drivers whenever I got the chance. Finally, the way forward opened up and I went ahead of the others. I turned toward a small hill and raced down. As I soon found out, this was a big mistake. My ATV turned over at full speed.
Luckily, I knew it was happening and pushed myself out of the way of the falling ATV. If I had not, I probably would have broken my leg beneath the weight of the ATV or even lost it. I might have even broken my neck. It ended up turning out fine, apart from some soreness (疼痛) in my chest for a week or so. This was a surprise for my friend. After seeing the accident, he said to me, “Dude, I thought you were dead.” Perhaps I could have died, if I hadn’t been lucky that day.
That event was one I’ll always remember for the adventure and the near-death experience. It’s good to be adventurous, but it’s still really important to be wise and careful too. So, go on adventures, but be smart while you’re on them!
58. What did the author do before starting his quad biking adventure?
A. He checked his ATV again and again. B. He shared his experience with other drivers.
C. He received some instruction and waited. D. He made a personal survey of the track.
59. What does the underlined word “overtaking” in paragraph 2 most likely mean?
A. Following. B. Directing. C. Going past. D. Talking with.
60. What happened when the author tried to race down a small hill?
A. He slowed down. B. He hit his friend’s ATV.
C. He broke his neck and leg. D. He lost control of his ATV.
61. What’s the main message the author wants to convey in the text?
A. Accidents are a natural part of adventures. B. It is fun to live an adventurous life.
C. Never be afraid of failure in life. D. Keep safety in mind while on an adventure.
D
China and India are leaders in improving global tree cover, a new study based on NASA research showed.
They took a 31.8 percent part together of the total global new leaf area between 2000 and 2017. China played a major role, adding 25 percent to this increase, and India added 6.8 percent, followed by Canada and Russia.
The study in the Nature Sustainability journal shows that more than 5.5 million square kilometers of green leaf area was added globally. Since 2000, there has been a 5 percent increase in global green cover, it said.
“The greening over the last twenty years shows an increase in leaf area on plants and trees which is as large as the area of the entire Amazon rainforest,” Chi Chen, a Boston University researcher and leader of the study told Nature Sustainability. Large plantation activities to protect forests in China contributed nearly 42 percent to the country’s green cover, and agriculture(农业) added another 32 percent. In India, 82 percent of the increase in leaf area was because of agriculture.
“China and India take up one-third of the greening, but hold only nine percent of the planet’s land area covered in green plants,” Chi Chen told NASA Earth Observatory. “That is a surprising finding, considering the land degradation(退化) in countries with large populations.”
Boston University’s research team first detected an increase in global green cover in the 1990s but were unsure what contributed to the increase. Finally, with the help of NASA’s Terra and Aqua satellites research, they managed to find out the increase in leaf cover from different areas and places.
62. Which country contributed to the largest increase in the global new leaf area?
A. China. B. India. C. Russia. D. Canada.
63. For what purpose did the author mention the Amazon rainforest?
A. To show the major role of rainforest. B. To explain the reason for developing agriculture.
C. To describe the difficulty in protecting forests. D. To show the great increase in global green cover.
64. What did Chi Chen think of the new finding?
A. Worrying. B. Interesting. C. Unexpected. D. Meaningless.
65. What does the underlined word “detected” probably mean?
A. Imagined. B. Discovered. C. Studied. D. Doubted.

At seventeen minutes past four in the afternoon, while the passengers were in the main hall taking their lunch, a slight blow was felt on the Scotia (斯科舍号船), on the quarter a little behind the port wheel.
The Scotia had not run into something: something had run into it, and a cutting or sharp object rather than a blunt (不锋利的) one. The blow seemed so slight that nobody on board would have worried but for the shout of the hold-workers who rushed up on to the deck (甲板) .
“We’re sinking (下沉)! We’re sinking!”
At first the passengers were quite afraid but Captain Anderson quickly reassured (宽慰) them. In fact, the danger could not come at once. The Scotia, divided into seven parts, was sure to resist any leak with impunity.
Captain Anderson headed at once for the hold. He noticed that the fifth part had flooded; and the speed of the flooding proved that the hole was a quite big one. Very luckily, the boilers were not in this compartment, for the fires would have gone out at once.
Captain Anderson had the engines stopped at once, while one of the sailors dived to assess the damage (损坏). Shortly afterwards, the existence of a two-metre hole in the hull was confirmed. Such damage could not be repaired and the Scotia, its wheels half underwater, had to continue its journey in the same state. It was 300 miles from Cape Clear, and was three days late when it sailed into the company docks, having greatly worried Liverpool.
The engineers then carried out an inspection (检查) of the Scotia, which was in dry dock.
They couldn’t believe their eyes. Two and a half meters below the water-line appeared a neat hole in the form of an isosceles triangle (等腰三角形). The break in the board was perfectly clean, and could not have been cut with greater precision.
76. Where did the story take place, in the ocean or on land?
_____________________________________________________
77. How did the passengers feel at first?
______________________________________________________
78. Which part of the boat was flooded according to the story?

79. Who carried out the inspection of the Scotia?
