C
Few words are spoken more often every day on the streets of Britain than "Iˈm sorry". This expression has become such a common response (反应) that it has taken on a lot of meanings.
Saying "sorry" means to apologize (道歉). This is simple and easy to understand. We learn it both as a native (本地的) speaker and as a student of foreign languages.
But in Britain, it takes on another meaning. It is a cultural expression. Imagine this: a man walks down the street, looking down at his phone. A woman is walking in the opposite direction, towards the man. She sees him, but she canˈt get out of the way in time. The man knocks into the woman. Who should say sorry? Naturally, the man should say sorry, because he isnˈt looking where he is going. Yet in Britain, it is common for both to apologize. It is known that British people, like most people, do not enjoy conflict (冲突). So to quickly solve the problem, British people will apologize to each other.
At other times, it may sound funny to hear "sorry". Some of my friends say it at restaurants, as they ask the waiter, "Sorry, but can I order another drink?" It is not to apologize, but just to express that we need the waiter.
In Britain, "sorry" doesnˈt always mean exactly what you think.
46.What does the underlined phrase " taken on" mean in Paragraph 1?
A. Worked on. B. Hire C. Shown. D. Looked up.
47.The example in the third paragraph is used to ________.
A. describe a situation that people should avoid
B. describe how "sorry" has another meaning in Britain
C. explain why people should say sorry to each other
D. show how polite British people are
48.The restaurant example shows that "sorry" can be used to ________.
A. apologize
B. cause conflict
C. explain what youˈre thinking about
D. ask a waiter to bring something
49.Which of the following is TRUE?
A. "Iˈm sorry" is spoken very often every day on the streets of Britain.
B. "Saying sorry" is a cultural expression in the US.
C. Saying "sorry" only means to apologize.
D. British people donˈt apologize to each other to show their politeness when conflicts happen.
50.Whatˈs the structure of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1, ②=Paragraph 2…)
A. ①/②③④/⑤ B. ①②/③④/⑤ C. ①②③④/⑤ D. ①/②③/④⑤
【答案】C、B、D、A、A
【解析】略
D
Technology is helping children to be polite. There will be a new virtual(虚拟的)helper.
It is called “Free Time”. A company from the USA invented it for children. Free Time will include a “Magic Word” feature. Actually, there are two magic words: “Please” and “Thank you”. Free Time is programmed to encourage children to say these two words when they ask the program questions.
If a child asks Free Time, “Excuse me, where is the restroom,” the program will answer the question patiently and end its reply with “Thank you for asking so nicely.” The company hopes children will learn from the program and use more polite words in their daily lives.
Some people think the technology teaches children to be rude. Thatˈs because many smart programs say sentences without using any polite words. They just say sentences directly. Parents say children will copy this and forget to say “please” or “thank you” when they communicate with others. Children also ask smart programs questions without being polite. Donˈt worry. Free Time can help parents solve the problem.
Not everyone is happy with this new technology. People have different ideas about the technology. Someone shared his opinion on the Internet. He wrote, “AI programs get in the way of face-to-face interactions(互动). In my opinion, parents should spend time communicating with children and teaching them politeness.”
51.Why did the company invent Free Time?
A. To correct childrenˈs mistakes.
B. To encourage children to say polite words.
C. To help parents solve problems about their children.
D. To teach children how to talk with their parents.
52.How does Free Time end its answer?
A. By saying “Please”. B. By moving its body.
C. By changing its voice. D. By saying “Thank you”.
53.What does the underlined word “ rude” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Impolite. B. Unhealthy. C. Unhappy. D. Imperfect.
54.The writer would probably talk about __________ after Paragraph 5.
A. why parents donˈt like Free Time
B. what new technology can do for children
C. when parents should talk to their children
D. how parents help their children become polite
55.Which can be the best title for the passage?
A. A Helpful Word for Children
B. A Smart and Helpful Program
C. A Famous Company in the USA
D. A Good Way to Communicate with Parents
【答案】B、D、A、D、B
【解析】
51. 细节理解题。由第二段最后一句可知,这个公司发明Free Time是为了鼓励孩子说礼貌用语。
52. 细节理解题。由第三段第一句可知,Free Time以说“谢谢你礼貌的提问”来结束回答。
53. 词义猜测题。由画线词所在句的下一句“那是因为许多智能程序在说句子时不使用任何礼貌的单词”可知,画线词所在句的意思是有人认为这种技术会教孩子变得不礼貌。
54. 推理判断题。通读第五段可知,该段主要介绍人们对Free Time这个程序的看法,有人认为家长应该多花时间教孩子礼貌。由此可推知,作者在第五段后可能会介绍家长是如何帮助孩子变得有礼貌的。
55. 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了一个可以帮助孩子变得有礼貌的程序。
五、单词拼写(共10小题;每小题1分,共10分)
根据句意及汉语提示完成句子。
56.If predictions are c (正确的), the sea level may increase more than four inches.
【答案】correct
【解析】句意:如果预测正确,海平面可能会上升4英寸以上。根据句意和首字母c可知,此空的意思是“正确的”correct,形容词作表语。故填correct。
57.The c (中心的) part of the earth is called the earth's core(地核).
【答案】central
【解析】句意:地球的核心部分被称为地核。根据句中“the earth's core(地核)”可知,此处是指“地球的中心部分”。central形容词,中心的,中央的,在句中作定语。故填central。

In China, there are 24 solar terms(节气)in a year. And there are six solar terms in winter. They go in that order start of winter, light snow, heavy snow, winter solstice(冬至), lesser cold(小寒)and greater cold.
Start of winter usually falls on November 7th or 8th. On this day, after a year of hard work, people are happy to have a rest and spend time with the family. On start of winter, people keep lots of vegetables in a cellar. It is a room under a house and people often keep things in it. It is handy for people when they want to eat vegetables. They just need to take them out from the cellar. The northern China celebrates start of winter as the “Small Spring Festival”. People usually have dumplings and mutton soup on that day.

Few words are spoken more often every day on the streets of Britain than "Iˈm sorry". This expression has become such a common response (反应) that it has taken on a lot of meanings.
Saying "sorry" means to apologize (道歉). This is simple and easy to understand. We learn it both as a native (本地的) speaker and as a student of foreign languages.
But in Britain, it takes on another meaning. It is a cultural expression. Imagine this: a man walks down the street, looking down at his phone. A woman is walking in the opposite direction, towards the man. She sees him, but she canˈt get out of the way in time. The man knocks into the woman. Who should say sorry? Naturally, the man should say sorry, because he isnˈt looking where he is going. Yet in Britain, it is common for both to apologize. It is known that British people, like most people, do not enjoy conflict (冲突). So to quickly solve the problem, British people will apologize to each other.
At other times, it may sound funny to hear "sorry". Some of my friends say it at restaurants, as they ask the waiter, "Sorry, but can I order another drink?" It is not to apologize, but just to express that we need the waiter.
In Britain, "sorry" doesnˈt always mean exactly what you think.
46.What does the underlined phrase " taken on" mean in Paragraph 1?
A. Worked on. B. Hire C. Shown. D. Looked up.
47.The example in the third paragraph is used to ________.
A. describe a situation that people should avoid
B. describe how "sorry" has another meaning in Britain
C. explain why people should say sorry to each other
D. show how polite British people are
48.The restaurant example shows that "sorry" can be used to ________.
A. apologize
B. cause conflict
C. explain what youˈre thinking about
D. ask a waiter to bring something
49.Which of the following is TRUE?
A. "Iˈm sorry" is spoken very often every day on the streets of Britain.
B. "Saying sorry" is a cultural expression in the US.
C. Saying "sorry" only means to apologize.
D. British people donˈt apologize to each other to show their politeness when conflicts happen.
50.Whatˈs the structure of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1, ②=Paragraph 2…)
A. ①/②③④/⑤ B. ①②/③④/⑤ C. ①②③④/⑤ D. ①/②③/④⑤
D
Technology is helping children to be polite. There will be a new virtual(虚拟的)helper.
It is called “Free Time”. A company from the USA invented it for children. Free Time will include a “Magic Word” feature. Actually, there are two magic words: “Please” and “Thank you”. Free Time is programmed to encourage children to say these two words when they ask the program questions.
If a child asks Free Time, “Excuse me, where is the restroom,” the program will answer the question patiently and end its reply with “Thank you for asking so nicely.” The company hopes children will learn from the program and use more polite words in their daily lives.
Some people think the technology teaches children to be rude. Thatˈs because many smart programs say sentences without using any polite words. They just say sentences directly. Parents say children will copy this and forget to say “please” or “thank you” when they communicate with others. Children also ask smart programs questions without being polite. Donˈt worry. Free Time can help parents solve the problem.
Not everyone is happy with this new technology. People have different ideas about the technology. Someone shared his opinion on the Internet. He wrote, “AI programs get in the way of face-to-face interactions(互动). In my opinion, parents should spend time communicating with children and teaching them politeness.”
51.Why did the company invent Free Time?
A. To correct childrenˈs mistakes.
B. To encourage children to say polite words.
C. To help parents solve problems about their children.
D. To teach children how to talk with their parents.
52.How does Free Time end its answer?
A. By saying “Please”. B. By moving its body.
C. By changing its voice. D. By saying “Thank you”.
53.What does the underlined word “ rude” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Impolite. B. Unhealthy. C. Unhappy. D. Imperfect.
54.The writer would probably talk about __________ after Paragraph 5.
A. why parents donˈt like Free Time
B. what new technology can do for children
C. when parents should talk to their children
D. how parents help their children become polite
55.Which can be the best title for the passage?
A. A Helpful Word for Children
B. A Smart and Helpful Program
C. A Famous Company in the USA
D. A Good Way to Communicate with Parents
