As I walked into the primary school, I looked down at my new black shoes. I stood at Mrs. Blackstone’s door. Before I tried the great escape, the door opened. “We’ve been waiting for you!” Mrs. Blackstone, my new fifth grade teacher, said loudly. With a smile my mom walked away and I was left taking center stage in front of a group of students.
Over the next few days, Mrs. Blackstone made it her job to find me a new best friend. During history lessons, when I didn’t want to speak in front of the class, she’d not only call on me but have me stand up to address my classmates.
One spring afternoon, Mrs. Blackstone asked me to stay after class. “I’d like to speak with you, Amanda.” My mind raced. Had I got a bad grade? Had I hurt anyone’s feelings? “Are you enjoying your new school?” She sat comfortably behind her desk. “I want to tell you something, between you and me, not to be shared with anyone else.” She continued, “I see something special in you. The way you communicate with others, and the kindness you show — I think you have great potential (潜力) to be something important.” I listened carefully to every word. “I have been a teacher for over twenty - five years; I can see it. But you must believe in yourself. That’s very important. Remember that and you’ll go far,” she said.
Her voice was music to my ears that day. I walked out of her office, not staring at my shoes, but looking straight ahead with my head high. My teacher saw something special in me! Years later, her words still remain inside of me.

Teenagers’ fitness is now a major concern, to which physical exercise is very important. It reduces stress and improves fitness. Exercise makes your body strong, and helps you to keep the right body weight. Sports scientist Dr. Helen Lopez offers the following advice to teenagers: “First, you need to find out your present level of fitness. Then you can design a programme that will help you become healthier. ”
Dr. Lopez points out that there are three levels of fitness that need a change of lifestyle. “Overweight” means that the person gets very little exercise and often has a serious weight problem. “Inactive” means that the person does not join in many physical activities, but is not seriously overweight. “Active” refers to people who take part in sports and other physical activities, but do not have a high fitness level.
According to Dr. Lopez, overweight teenagers should keep active to keep healthy. “Ride a bike, play volleyball or basketball for a while, and go for a twenty-minute walk each day. All these will help to burn calories.” Inactive teenagers should do similar activities, but add some bending and stretching exercises, such as push-ups and sit-ups, starting with twenty of each a day. “Inactive people can take a little more exercise than overweight people because their bodies are stronger,” said Dr. Lopez. The same principle applies to active teenagers.
Dr. Lopez suggests one hour a week or more on running and other forms of intensive exercise, together with fifteen minutes a day spent on stretching and bending activities. “These are really important in order to prevent injuries,” Dr. Lopez said. Some weight-training and other body-strengthening exercises could also be planned in the programme in order to increase the person’s strength.
8 Which of the following statements is NOT the reason why physical exercise is important?
A. It can make the teenagers grow taller. B. It can help teenagers become healthier.
C. It can help to burn up calories. D. It can increase teenagers’ strength.
9. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Active people always have a high fitness level.
B. Overweight people always take more exercise.
C. Inactive teenagers are not seriously overweight.
D. Keeping fit means changing teenagers’ lifestyle.
10. In order to prevent injuries, you should do some ________ exercises.
A. walking B. stretching and bending C. riding D. weight-training
11. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Doing exercises B. Teenagers’ Fitness C. Different Lifestyles D. Overweight Teenagers
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章就如何运动来提高青少年的健康提出了一些建议。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Teenagers’ fitness is now a major concern, to which physical exercise is very important. It reduces stress and improves fitness. Exercise makes your body strong, and helps you to keep the right body weight(青少年的健康现在是一个主要问题,体育锻炼对其非常重要。它能减轻压力,提高健康水平。运动使你的身体强壮,并帮助你保持正确的体重)”和第三段中的“All these will help to burn calories(这些有助于燃烧卡路里)”可知,帮助青少年长高并不是文章所提到的运动的好处。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的““Inactive” means that the person does not join in many physical activities, but is not seriously overweight(“不活跃”是指这个人不参加很多体育活动,但没有严重超重)”可知,不活跃的青少年没有严重超重。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Dr. Lopez suggests one hour a week or more on running and other forms of intensive exercise, together with fifteen minutes a day spent on stretching and bending activities. “These are really important in order to prevent injuries,” Dr. Lopez said(洛佩兹建议每周花一个小时或更多的时间进行跑步和其他形式的高强度运动,同时每天花15分钟做伸展和弯曲运动。“为了防止受伤,这些是非常重要的,”洛佩兹博士说)”可知,伸展和弯曲运动有助于防止受伤。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段是文章的中心段。第一段第一句“Teenagers’ fitness is now a major concern, to which physical exercise is very important. It reduces stress and improves fitness(青少年的健康现在是一个主要的问题,体育锻炼是非常重要的)”是中心句,下文就不同健康问题的青少年提出了一些具体的运动建议。因此文章都是围绕“青少年健康”展开的。故选B。
D
As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remember less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.
In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.
In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夹). Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location (位置) better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called “transactive memory (交互记忆)”
According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.
12. The passage begins with two questions to ________.
A. introduce the main topic B. show the author’s attitude
C. describe how to use the Internet D. explain how to store information
13. What can we learn about the first experiment?
A. Sparrow’s team typed the information into a computer.
B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.
C. The first group did not try to remember the information.
D. The second group did not understand the information.
14. In transactive memory, people ________.
A. keep the information in mind
B. change the quantity of information
C. organize information like a computer
D. remember how to find the information
15. What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research?
A. We are using memory differently.
B. We are becoming more intelligent.
C. We have poorer memories than before.
D. We need a better way to access information.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是议论文。文章主要讲的是互联网给人类的记忆带来的影响。互联网使用者越来越依赖互联网来储存信息,人们这样做是否会丧失记忆事物的能力呢?专家怀疑互联网可能正在改变人们的记忆内容和方式。
12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.”专家们想知道,互联网是否正在改变我们的记忆,以及如何改变我们的记忆?这是本文的中心话题。因此推断,作者使用两个问句是为了引出要讨论的话题。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.”可知第一组没有试着记住信息。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called "transactive memory (交互记忆)"”可知,在交互记忆里,人们记得怎样找到信息。故选D。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing”可知,互联网对人们的记忆产生的影响是它改变了我们使用记忆力的方式。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了书面汉语的起源、发展过程和对古代和现代的重要意义和作用,是中国文化的重要组成部分。
【36题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:中国因其古代文明而广为人知,直到现代,古代文明也一直在继续流传着。根据句意和分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,关系词指代先行词ancient civilization(指物)并在从句中作主语,故填which/that。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意:起初,书面汉语是一种以图画为基础语言。language为可数名词单数形式,此处泛指“一种语言”,且picture-based发音以辅音音素开头,需用不定冠词a。故填a。
【38题详解】
考查名词的数。句意:古代的中国人在动物的骨骸以及贝壳上雕刻符号。根据句意和句中bones和shells可知,雕刻的符号不止一个,应填复数形式。故填symbols。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在那个时期,人们居住在不同的地方,形成了许多种类的方言和文字。分析可知,已有谓语动词lived,且句中无连词,此处使用非谓语形式,此处表示一种自然而然的结果,用用现在分词作结果状语。故填leading。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意:秦始皇把七个主要地区统一成一个国家,那之后书面汉语系统开始朝着一个方向发展。根据句意可知此处是用固定短语in a direction,意为:“在一个方向上、朝一个方向”。故填in。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:这样一个书面汉语系统在凝聚中国人民和中国文化时是很重要的。be of importance=be important为固定用法,意为:重要的。故填importance。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意:甚至在今天,无论中国人住在哪儿,或是说着什么样的方言,他们都可以以书面的形式灵活自由地沟通。修饰动词communicate用副词,副词freely,自由地,而free也可作副词,但表示“免费地”,不符合句意。故填freely。
【43题详解】
考查形容词性物主代词。句意:书面汉语已经成为连接中国的现在和过去的一种重要方式。修饰名词past用形容词性物主代词。故填its。
【44题详解】
考查时态语态。句意:在现代社会,人民也可以读到由古人书写的作品。根据句意和句子结构分析,that引导定语从句,从句的先行词为classic works,与write之间是被动关系,而且动作发生在过去,所以用一般过去时的被动语态,且谓语动词用复数。故填were written。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:书面汉语系统的高度重视可以在汉字发展过程中被看作是一种艺术形式,为人们所熟知的中国书法,已经成为中国文化的一个重要组成部分。be known as为固定短语,意为:作为……而著名。此处省略be,用过去分词作后置定语,故填known。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was sitting next to Missy in my 9th-grade world history class when Mrs. Bartlett announced a new project: In groups, we were to create a newspaper about the culture we were studying.
On a piece of paper, we wrote the names of three friends we wanted in our group. After collecting all the requests, Mrs. Bartlett told us that she would take into consideration our choices and let us know the results the next day.
After the bell rang the next day, Missy and I waited anxiously as Mrs. Bartlett started to call out names. When she reached group three, Missy’s name was called. I would be in the same group, I thought, as I knew we had chosen each other. Then the other three names were called. Mine was not included. There must be some mistake!
Then I heard it. The last group: Mauro, Juliette, Rachel, Karina! I could feel tears well in my eyes. How could I face being in that group-the boy, Mauro, who barely spoke English and his lack of friends; Juliette, who, from West Asia, was always covered by long skirts to her ankles; and the other girl who wore odd clothes. Oh, how I wanted to be with my friends!
I fought back tears as I walked up to Mrs. Bartlett. Knowing what I was there for, she looked at me and gently placed a hand on my shoulder.
”I know what you want, Karina,” she said, “but your group needs you. I need you to help them get a passing grade on this assignment. Will you help them?”
I was stunted. She had seen something in me even I hadn’t seen. “Yes,” I replied. I couldn’t believe it came out of my mouth, but it did. Then I bravely walked to where the others in my group was, sat down and started to work.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

Gradually, I grew interested in working with my new friends.

Mrs. Bartlett gave us an A on that assignment.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Gradually, I grew interested in working with my new friends. According to personal interests and what they were good at, I assigned them with different columns of the newspaper. Halfway through it, I felt myself enjoying the company of these three people. Gradually, I learned that Mauro had few friends because he was struggling with the English language; Juliette wore long skirts or dresses every day because of her religion; Rachel had a burning desire to be a fashion designer so she had a whole barrel of unique ideas. Finally, with our cooperation, our assignment was successfully finished.
Mrs. Bartlett gave us an A on that assignment. She announced to the whole class that the newspaper designed by our group was elaborately laid out and carefully edited, with rich cultural knowledge. Our joy and happiness were beyond description. After that semester ended, I always received a friendly hello from my group. Many years later, I didn’t recall anything about the newspaper, but I did feel fortunate to be given the opportunity to see in myself a potential that inspired my actions. It is Mrs B’s insight, vision and thoughtfulness that bring out the potential in four of her students. She is the one who truly deserves the grade A.

As I walked into the primary school, I looked down at my new black shoes. I stood at Mrs. Blackstone’s door. Before I tried the great escape, the door opened. “We’ve been waiting for you!” Mrs. Blackstone, my new fifth grade teacher, said loudly. With a smile my mom walked away and I was left taking center stage in front of a group of students.
Over the next few days, Mrs. Blackstone made it her job to find me a new best friend. During history lessons, when I didn’t want to speak in front of the class, she’d not only call on me but have me stand up to address my classmates.
One spring afternoon, Mrs. Blackstone asked me to stay after class. “I’d like to speak with you, Amanda.” My mind raced. Had I got a bad grade? Had I hurt anyone’s feelings? “Are you enjoying your new school?” She sat comfortably behind her desk. “I want to tell you something, between you and me, not to be shared with anyone else.” She continued, “I see something special in you. The way you communicate with others, and the kindness you show — I think you have great potential (潜力) to be something important.” I listened carefully to every word. “I have been a teacher for over twenty - five years; I can see it. But you must believe in yourself. That’s very important. Remember that and you’ll go far,” she said.
Her voice was music to my ears that day. I walked out of her office, not staring at my shoes, but looking straight ahead with my head high. My teacher saw something special in me! Years later, her words still remain inside of me.
4. The author went to school unwillingly most probably because she ________.
A. didn’t like the school at all B. often got low grades at school

6. What’s the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 2?

7. What can we learn from the passage?
A. The author came from a poor family.
B. The teacher sang a song to the author.
C. The author never forgets what the teacher said.
D. The author no longer cared for anybody but herself.

Teenagers’ fitness is now a major concern, to which physical exercise is very important. It reduces stress and improves fitness. Exercise makes your body strong, and helps you to keep the right body weight. Sports scientist Dr. Helen Lopez offers the following advice to teenagers: “First, you need to find out your present level of fitness. Then you can design a programme that will help you become healthier. ”
Dr. Lopez points out that there are three levels of fitness that need a change of lifestyle. “Overweight” means that the person gets very little exercise and often has a serious weight problem. “Inactive” means that the person does not join in many physical activities, but is not seriously overweight. “Active” refers to people who take part in sports and other physical activities, but do not have a high fitness level.
According to Dr. Lopez, overweight teenagers should keep active to keep healthy. “Ride a bike, play volleyball or basketball for a while, and go for a twenty-minute walk each day. All these will help to burn calories.” Inactive teenagers should do similar activities, but add some bending and stretching exercises, such as push-ups and sit-ups, starting with twenty of each a day. “Inactive people can take a little more exercise than overweight people because their bodies are stronger,” said Dr. Lopez. The same principle applies to active teenagers.
Dr. Lopez suggests one hour a week or more on running and other forms of intensive exercise, together with fifteen minutes a day spent on stretching and bending activities. “These are really important in order to prevent injuries,” Dr. Lopez said. Some weight-training and other body-strengthening exercises could also be planned in the programme in order to increase the person’s strength.
8. Which of the following statements is NOT the reason why physical exercise is important?
A. It can make the teenagers grow taller. B. It can help teenagers become healthier.
C. It can help to burn up calories. D. It can increase teenagers’ strength.
9. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Active people always have a high fitness level.
B. Overweight people always take more exercise.
C. Inactive teenagers are not seriously overweight.
D Keeping fit means changing teenagers’ lifestyle.
10. In order to prevent injuries, you should do some ________ exercises.
A. walking B. stretching and bending C. riding D. weight-training
11. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Doing exercises B. Teenagers’ Fitness C. Different Lifestyles D. Overweight Teenagers
D
As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remember less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.
In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.
In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夹). Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location (位置) better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called “transactive memory (交互记忆)”
According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.
12. The passage begins with two questions to ________.
A. introduce the main topic B. show the author’s attitude
C. describe how to use the Internet D. explain how to store information
13. What can we learn about the first experiment?
A. Sparrow’s team typed the information into a computer.
B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.
C. The first group did not try to remember the information.
D. The second group did not understand the information.
14. In transactive memory, people ________.
A. keep the information in mind
B. change the quantity of information
C. organize information like a computer
D. remember how to find the information
15 What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research?
A. We are using memory differently.
B. We are becoming more intelligent.
C. We have poorer memories than before.
D. We need a better way to access information.

Helping others is an important part of life. ___16___. If you want to help others more but aren’t sure where to start, here are some tips that may help you.
___17___.
The easiest way to know how you can help others is simply to ask them. Talk to a family member or friend, ask them what they most need help with, and offer your services. Then, follow through and try your best to do what they’ve asked of you. Remember actions always speak louder than words!

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was sitting next to Missy in my 9th-grade world history class when Mrs. Bartlett announced a new project: In groups, we were to create a newspaper about the culture we were studying.
On a piece of paper, we wrote the names of three friends we wanted in our group. After collecting all the requests, Mrs. Bartlett told us that she would take into consideration our choices and let us know the results the next day.
After the bell rang the next day, Missy and I waited anxiously as Mrs. Bartlett started to call out names. When she reached group three, Missy’s name was called. I would be in the same group, I thought, as I knew we had chosen each other. Then the other three names were called. Mine was not included. There must be some mistake!
Then I heard it. The last group: Mauro, Juliette, Rachel, Karina! I could feel tears well in my eyes. How could I face being in that group-the boy, Mauro, who barely spoke English and his lack of friends; Juliette, who, from West Asia, was always covered by long skirts to her ankles; and the other girl who wore odd clothes. Oh, how I wanted to be with my friends!
I fought back tears as I walked up to Mrs. Bartlett. Knowing what I was there for, she looked at me and gently placed a hand on my shoulder.
”I know what you want, Karina,” she said, “but your group needs you. I need you to help them get a passing grade on this assignment. Will you help them?”
I was stunted. She had seen something in me even I hadn’t seen. “Yes,” I replied. I couldn’t believe it came out of my mouth, but it did. Then I bravely walked to where the others in my group was, sat down and started to work.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Gradually, I grew interested in working with my new friends.
