第一节 阅读下列短文,从下面每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。(共15小题,每小题1.5分)
A
Have you ever shown your photos on your favourite social media (媒体)? Or have you expressed your feelings and emotions on your online page? If yes, do you know what you have posted on the social media can cause problems you could not expect?
Cathy, who is going to be fifteen, posted online an invitation to her birthday party with her address in it. And guess what! 500 people came to the party, and some even broke the windows and plants, making a total mess of the house. The girl’s birthday party turned into a nightmare (噩梦).
Many teenagers think they know everything about social media, and that such a thing could never happen to them. Studies show that each year more than three million young people in the world get into trouble because of their online activities.
So do remember these if you really want to share something online.
Share with care! Not everyone will like what you write online. Think before you post anything. You never know who sees your texts, pictures or videos. Before clicking “post”, you should ask yourself, “How will I feel if my family or teachers see this?” and “How might this post be bad for me in five or ten years from now?”
Be polite when you write! Imagine someone is unfriendly in real life. The same is true of online communication. No one likes it when you “shout” in your messages. If you feel angry or frustrated (沮丧的) while you’re writing a message, wait a bit. Read it again later and then send it.
Protect and respect! Never share your passwords (密码) with anyone. It’s not wise to post your home or email address online. Don’t say bad things about people. If you get messages like that or see them online, talk to your parents or your teachers.
I’d say none of these things promise 100% online safety, but each will help you be safer.
28. How does the writer start the topic?
A. By telling stories. B. By giving examples.
C. By asking questions. D. By sharing experiences.
29. Why did the party turn into a nightmare?
A. Cathy made a total mess of the house.
B. Cathy shared the photos of her house online.
C. Cathy invited hundreds of people to her party.
D. Cathy shared her private information online.
30. Why does the writer use the mark “!” in the three underlined sentences?
A. To attract the readers’ attention. B. To give orders that readers should follow.
C. To express the strong feelings of worry. D. To give the decisions that have been made.
31. What can we infer (推断出) from the last paragraph?
A. You should spend much less time online.
B. It’s necessary to think before you act online.
C. You have to make a promise before you go online.
D. Do as the writer suggests and you will be surely safe.
32. What’s the writer’s probable attitude towards online activities?
A. They are great fun. B. They are a waste of time.
C. They are a waste of money. D. They must be taken seriously.
B

Mark Twain once said, "Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. " The famous writer talked about a problem many of us have. The problem is procrastination(拖延症).

Ⅲ. 阅读理解(40分)
第一节 阅读下列短文,从下面每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。(共15小题,每小题1.5分)
A
Have you ever shown your photos on your favourite social media (媒体)? Or have you expressed your feelings and emotions on your online page? If yes do you know what you have posted on the social media can cause problems you could not expect?
Cathy, who is going to be fifteen, posted online an invitation to her birthday party with her address in it. And guess what! 500 people came to the party, and some even broke the windows and plants, making a total mess of the house. The girl’s birthday party turned into a nightmare (噩梦).
Many teenagers think they know everything about social media, and that such a thing could never happen to them. Studies show that each year more than three million young people in the world get into trouble because of their online activities.
So do remember these if you really want to share something online.
Share with care! Not everyone will like what you write online. Think before you post anything. You never know who sees your texts, pictures or videos. Before clicking “post”, you should ask yourself, “How will I feel if my family or teachers see this?” and “How might this post be bad for me in five or ten years from now?”
Be polite when you write! Imagine someone is unfriendly in real life. The same is true of online communication. No one likes it when you “shout” in your messages. If you feel angry or frustrated (沮丧的) while you’re writing a message, wait a bit. Read it again later and then send it.
Protect and respect! Never share your passwords (密码) with anyone. It’s not wise to post your home or email address online. Don’t say bad things about people. If you get messages like that or see them online, talk to your parents or your teachers.
I’d say none of these things promise 100% online safety, but each will help you be safer.
28. How does the writer start the topic?
A. By telling stories. B. By giving examples.
C. By asking questions. D. By sharing experiences.
29. Why did the party turn into a nightmare?
A. Cathy made a total mess of the house.
B. Cathy shared the photos of her house online.
C. Cathy invited hundreds of people to her party.
D. Cathy shared her private information online.
30. Why does the writer use the mark “!” in the three underlined sentences?
A. To attract the readers’ attention. B. To give orders that readers should follow.
C. To express the strong feelings of worry. D. To give the decisions that have been made.
31. What can we infer (推断出) from the last paragraph?
A. You should spend much less time online.
B. It’s necessary to think before you act online.
C. You have to make a promise before you go online.
D. Do as the writer suggests and you will be surely safe.
32. What’s the writer’s probable attitude towards online activities?
A. They are great fun. B. They are a waste of time.
C. They are a waste of money. D. They must be taken seriously.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. B 32. D

It sold about 25 million copies in about 40 different languages.

Surprisingly, once you’ve begun,_______46_______.

One day he lost one of his ____53____ (well) horses. His neighbour told Sai Weng how sorry he was about this. Sai Weng said, “Do not be sorry for me. I agree with you that this looks like bad luck now, but let us wait and see what happens.”

A few days later, Sai Weng’s son decided to go out to ride the new horse. During the ride, the horse was nervous and threw its rider to the ground. Sai Weng’s son broke his leg.

53. best 54. that##which 55. at
56. replied
57. simply 58. a
59. men 60. was required
61. because
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了“塞翁失马”的故事。
【52题详解】
句意:战国时期,有个叫赛翁的老人。根据“there was an old man...Sai Weng”可知是有一位老人叫塞翁,空格处是过去分词作后置定语,意为“被叫作”,故填called。
【53题详解】
句意:一天,他失去了他最好的一匹马。此处是“one of one’s+最高级+名词复数”结构,故填best。
【54题详解】
句意:过了一会儿,赛翁丢失的那匹马回来了,但它并不是单独来的。此处是定语从句,修饰先行词“the horse”;因为先行词“the horse”为物,引导词在从句中作宾语,可用that或which。故填that/which。
【55题详解】
句意:赛翁的另一个邻居来到他家门口,向他表示祝贺。“his door”是小地点,用arrive at表示“到达”,故填at。
【56题详解】
句意:塞翁说:“现在看来是好运气,不过我们还是等着瞧吧。”本句时态是一般过去时,动词reply应变成其过去式replied。故填replied。
【57题详解】
句意:这一次,两个邻居都来安慰赛翁,但赛翁只是说:“谢谢你,但我们怎么知道这对我来说不是好事呢?”此处在句中修饰动词,用副词形式,故填simply。
【58题详解】
句意:这一次,两个邻居都来安慰赛翁,但赛翁只是说:“谢谢你,但我们怎么知道这对我来说不是好事呢?”此处泛指一件事,“good”是以辅音音素开头的单词,故填a。
【59题详解】
句意:一年后,皇帝的士兵去村里征集健康的年轻人参加战争。根据常识可知,招兵打仗应是需要召集很多人的,所以此空应填man的复数形式men。故填men。
【60题详解】
句意:赛翁的儿子被要求参军。本文都用一般过去时来叙述这个故事,主语“Sai Weng’s son”和谓语动词“require”为被动关系,所以此句应用一般过去时的被动语态,故填was required。
【61题详解】
句意:然而,他没有参军,因为他是跛脚的。“他是瘸的”是“他没有参军”的原因,而且前为果,后为因,所以此空应填连词because引导原因状语从句。故填because。

Your English class was so interesting and meaningful that we enjoyed it and learned a lot. I remembered in the first class, you taught us an English song. We sang it along happily and learned some useful expressions from the song, which aroused our bigger interest in learning English. The most impressive class was the drama class. You showed us how to act different roles in an English drama. We not only learned some knowledge about drama, but also practised oral English and learned to be more confident.
Thanks to your class and hard work, we have made great progress. We are looking forward to more English classes given by you next term. Thanks again for offering such wonderful after-school service to us.
