In large families, it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for some ideas. It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or a group of friends. They can help you to solve problems in your life. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This communication is very important in children’s growing up, because friends can discuss something. These things are difficult for their family members. However, parents often try to choose their children’s friends for them. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. Have you ever thought of the following questions? Who chooses your friends? Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you? Have you got a good friend who your parents don’t like? Your answers are welcome. 21.

My father was a fantastic cook. He wanted me, his only son, to cook with him, but I didn’t like cooking. Because of the restaurant, my father was always busy. He never had time to play football with me. During my high school and college years, I worked with my family at night. But I always avoided the kitchen. I couldn’t wait to graduate (毕业) so that I could move away from the family business. Several days before my graduation day, my father and I started looking at new cars. Finally, we found the right car. I was sure that my father would give it to me as my graduation gift. On my graduation day, my father gave me a book as a gift. It was his old cookbook. I was so angry that I gave it back to him and ran out of the house. Several days later I moved away and started my business. Although I often saw my father during holidays, we never talked about the graduation gift. Then one day, I got a call that my father was ill. I went to see him because I was very worried. That night, I looked through my father’s books and saw the cookbook that he had given me the year before. I carefully opened the cookbook and went through it. Then I found something that made me cry. It was a check (支票) for 30,000 dated (注有日期) the day of my graduation. And the price of the car my father and I chose years ago was 30,000. 24.

Between 221 and 210 B.C., he started the building of the Great Wall. The emperor also ordered the building of a huge army of life-sized terracotta soldiers (兵马俑). These, he hoped, would protect his tomb (坟墓) after his death. Lost in Time The soldiers in Xi’an’s terracotta museum are today light brown, but they weren’t always. They began as an army of red, blue, yellow, green, white, and purple. Sadly, most of the colors did not last to the present day. After they were exposed (暴露) to air during digging, the coating under the paint began to fall off. The paint disappeared in less time than it takes to boil an egg, taking away with it important pieces of history. New Technology Now new technology is starting to show the army’s true colors. Archeologists (考古学家) have recently discovered an area with more than a hundred soldiers. Many of these still have their painted features (特征), including black hair, pink faces, and black or brown eyes. Chinese and German researchers have developed a chemical liquid (液体) to help save the soldiers’ colors. After they find a soldier or another art piece, archeologists put the liquid on it. They then cover it in plastic(塑料). Back to Life Archeologists are also finding colors in the dirt (灰尘) around the soldiers. It’s important not to do anything with the dirt, so the colors won’t be lost. “We are treating the dirt as an art piece,” says Rong Bo, the museum’s leading archeologist. The next challenge (挑战), says Rong Bo, is to find a way to use the colors onto the army again. Once that happens, artists can bring Emperor Qin’s army back to its full, bright colors. 32. What is the passage mainly about? A. The death of Emperor Qin Shihuang. B. How the terracotta army was colored. C. The true colors of the terracotta soldiers. D. How the soldiers lived during the Qin Dynasty. 33. Why are the soldiers in Xi’an’s terracotta museum today light brown? A. Because they are too old. B. Because they lost their time. C. Because their paint fell off. D. Because they took away the history. 34. What does the underlined word “They” in the passage refer to? A. Archeologists. B. Artists. C. Researchers. D. Soldiers. 35. Which statement (陈述) would Rong Bo probably agree? A. The soldiers should stay in their present, brown color. B. People should try to bring back the army’s bright colors. C. Archeologists can only guess at the soldiers’ true colors. D. Artists should be able to paint the soldiers in colors they want. 【答案】32. C 33. C 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了兵马俑是中国的第一个皇帝秦始皇在位期间曾下令建造的，它原本是有颜色的，但在挖掘过程中暴露在空气中后，油漆下面的涂层开始脱落。幸运的是有了现代技术，艺术家们有望让兵马俑重现绚丽的色彩。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文意和“The soldiers in Xi’an’s terracotta museum are today light brown, but they weren’t always. They began as an army of red, blue, yellow, green, white, and purple.”可知，文章开头引出了兵马俑，并告诉我们兵马俑本来是有颜色的，但今天我们看到的却是棕色的。文章分析了造成这种结果的原因，并介绍利用现代的新技术，兵马俑的颜色有望重新恢复。C选项“兵马俑真正的颜色”最符合文章大意，故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据“After they were exposed (暴露) to air during digging, the coating under the paint began to fall off”可知油漆下面的涂层开始脱落，所以今天西安兵马俑博物馆的士兵是浅棕色的。故选C。 【34题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“After they find a soldier or another art piece, archeologists put the liquid on it. They then cover it in plastic”可知考古学家们在发现兵马俑或其他艺术品后，把液体放在上面，故此处They指代的“考古学家”，故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The next challenge (挑战), says Rong Bo, is to find a way to use the colors onto the army again. Once that happens, artists can bring Emperor Qin’s army back to its full, bright colors”可知，Rong Bo说下一个挑战是找到一种方法再次在军队中使用这些颜色，然后让秦始皇的军队重现其绚丽的色彩。B选项“人们应该试着恢复军队鲜艳的颜色”与Rong Bo观点一致。故选B。 四、阅读还原7选5(每小题2分，共10分) No one knows why we sleep. ___36___ If people do not have enough sleep, they may think less clearly, or sleep during the working hours. ___37___ Generally speaking, grown-ups(成年人) sleep about 7 and a half hours each night. And more than 60 percent of them get seven to eight hours. But 8 percent are quite happy with five hours or less, and 4 percent find that they want to sleep ten hours or more. If you feel all right, maybe you're getting enough sleep. The important thing is not to worry how much other people get—your needs may be different. ___38___ For example, office workers and factory workers sleep for about the same time. ___39___ They need about 14 to 18 hours soon after birth. Then the sleep time becomes less and less as they grow up. Old people may sleep less at night than young people. ___40___ A. Children sleep more. B. But we know sleep is important. C. Boys often sleep more than girls. D. But they often take a sleep at noon. E. It's hard to say how much sleep we need. F. Sleep is not important for the young people. G. Exercise does not make you need more sleep. 【答案】36. B 37. E 38. G 39. A 40. D 【解析】 【分析】没有人知道我们为什么需要睡眠，但睡眠的确是非常重要的，但我们需要多少睡眠却是很不一样的。这篇短文中举例为我们说明了不同的人需要不同的睡眠时间。 【36题详解】 下句话“If people do not have enough sleep, they may think less clearly, or sleep during the working hours.”告诉了我们睡眠的重要性。B选项中But先与上句话构成转折关系，然后引出下文睡眠的重要，意为“但是我们知道睡眠是重要的”，符合语境。故选B。 【37题详解】 由下文“Generally speaking, grown-ups(成年人) sleep about 7 and a half hours each night. And more than 60 percent of them get seven to eight hours. But 8 percent are quite happy with five hours or less, and 4 percent find that they want to sleep ten hours or more.”可以看到，这里主要介绍的是睡眠的时间问题，不同的人是不一样的。故E选项“很难说我们需要多少睡眠”符合语境。故选E。 【38题详解】 根据下文“For example, office workers and factory workers sleep for about the same time.”举例说办公室人员和工厂的工人睡眠的时间差不多。G选项“运动并不会使你需要更多的睡眠”符合语境。故选G。 【39题详解】 根据下句话“They need about 14 to 18 hours soon after birth. Then the sleep time becomes less and less as they grow up.”“他们出生后需要大约14到18小时的睡眠，随着长大睡觉时间变得越来越少”，这句话的主语与A选项中“Children呼应”，意为“孩子需要更多的睡眠”，符合语境，故选A。 【40题详解】 上句话“Old people may sleep less at night than young people.”提到老人比年轻人夜晚的睡眠时间更少，D选项“they”代指了上句话中提到的“Old people”，at noon与上句话的“at night”形成了对比，故D选项“但是他们经常中午的时候睡觉”符合语境，故选D。 五、完形填空(每小题1分，共10分) Do you think you can have only one job in your lifetime?

In large families, it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for some ideas. It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or a group of friends. They can help you to solve problems in your life. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This communication is very important in children’s growing up, because friends can discuss something. These things are difficult for their family members. However, parents often try to choose their children’s friends for them. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. Have you ever thought of the following questions? Who chooses your friends? Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you? Have you got a good friend who your parents don’t like? Your answers are welcome. 21. Many teenagers think that their ________ can understand them better. A. sisters B. brothers C. friends D. parents 22. ________ is very important to teenagers. A. Making friends B. Meeting friends C. Living with friends D. Fighting with friends 23. Teenagers usually like to ________. A. go to their brothers and sisters for help B. communicate with their parents C. make friends with their parents D. discuss something with their friends B “Can I take your order?” Night after night, I had to say this as I worked in my family’s restaurant. My father was a fantastic cook. He wanted me, his only son, to cook with him, but I didn’t like cooking. Because of the restaurant, my father was always busy. He never had time to play football with me. During my high school and college years, I worked with my family at night. But I always avoided the kitchen. I couldn’t wait to graduate (毕业) so that I could move away from the family business. Several days before my graduation day, my father and I started looking at new cars. Finally, we found the right car. I was sure that my father would give it to me as my graduation gift. On my graduation day, my father gave me a book as a gift. It was his old cookbook. I was so angry that I gave it back to him and ran out of the house. Several days later I moved away and started my business. Although I often saw my father during holidays, we never talked about the graduation gift. Then one day, I got a call that my father was ill. I went to see him because I was very worried. That night, I looked through my father’s books and saw the cookbook that he had given me the year before. I carefully opened the cookbook and went through it. Then I found something that made me cry. It was a check (支票) for 30,000 dated (注有日期) the day of my graduation. And the price of the car my father and I chose years ago was 30,000. 24.

A. decided to cook with his father B. hated his father giving him so little money C. regretted he didn’t look after his father well D. realized his father’s deep love for him at last C Do you know the movie I, Robot? It tells us a story about the future. The year is 2035 and robots are just as common as mobile phones. People depend on their robots to do lots of things, for example, babysitting, cooking, doing chores and taking their dogs for a walk. Robots have to obey (听从) human’s orders, because their designers make them do so. A police officer called Spooner hates robots. He doesn’t think humans can get on well with their robots at all! But the scientist Susan has different opinions. Susan works on robots’ mind and she thinks one day robots will become more powerful (强大的) than humans and help humans to make progress (进步). When Spooner and Susan work together, they find that something is wrong with the world’s robots. A few robots have their own thoughts and they’re trying to get out of humans’ control (控制)! Of course these robots’ dream doesn’t come true. Humans work hard to control their robots again and they succeed at last. 28. The story happened (发生) in ________. A 2013 B. 2020 C. 2035 D. 2040 29.

Between 221 and 210 B.C., he started the building of the Great Wall. The emperor also ordered the building of a huge army of life-sized terracotta soldiers (兵马俑). These, he hoped, would protect his tomb (坟墓) after his death. Lost in Time The soldiers in Xi’an’s terracotta museum are today light brown, but they weren’t always. They began as an army of red, blue, yellow, green, white, and purple. Sadly, most of the colors did not last to the present day. After they were exposed (暴露) to air during digging, the coating under the paint began to fall off. The paint disappeared in less time than it takes to boil an egg, taking away with it important pieces of history. New Technology Now new technology is starting to show the army’s true colors. Archeologists (考古学家) have recently discovered an area with more than a hundred soldiers. Many of these still have their painted features (特征), including black hair, pink faces, and black or brown eyes. Chinese and German researchers have developed a chemical liquid (液体) to help save the soldiers’ colors. After they find a soldier or another art piece, archeologists put the liquid on it. They then cover it in plastic(塑料). Back to Life Archeologists are also finding colors in the dirt (灰尘) around the soldiers. It’s important not to do anything with the dirt, so the colors won’t be lost. “We are treating the dirt as an art piece,” says Rong Bo, the museum’s leading archeologist. The next challenge (挑战), says Rong Bo, is to find a way to use the colors onto the army again. Once that happens, artists can bring Emperor Qin’s army back to its full, bright colors. 32. What is the passage mainly about? A. The death of Emperor Qin Shihuang. B. How the terracotta army was colored. C. The true colors of the terracotta soldiers. D. How the soldiers lived during the Qin Dynasty. 33. Why are the soldiers in Xi’an’s terracotta museum today light brown? A. Because they are too old. B. Because they lost their time. C. Because their paint fell off. D. Because they took away the history. 34. What does the underlined word “They” in the passage refer to? A. Archeologists. B. Artists. C. Researchers. D. Soldiers. 35. Which statement (陈述) would Rong Bo probably agree? A. The soldiers should stay in their present, brown color. B. People should try to bring back the army’s bright colors. C. Archeologists can only guess at the soldiers’ true colors. D. Artists should be able to paint the soldiers in colors they want. 四、阅读还原7选5(每小题2分，共10分) No one knows why we sleep. ___36___ If people do not have enough sleep, they may think less clearly, or sleep during the working hours. ___37___ Generally speaking, grown-ups(成年人) sleep about 7 and a half hours each night.
