“Excuse me, sir,” said the little boy, “but…”

二、单项选择(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
21. ________ her husband ________ her son is so active as her. They don’t like to talk much.
A. Not only; but B. Either; or C. Both; and D. Neither; nor
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:她的丈夫和儿子都不像她那么活跃。他们不太喜欢说话。
考查并列连词辨析。Not only...but also不仅……而且,遵循就近原则;Either...or或者……或者,表示二者择其一;Both...and两者都;Neither...nor既不……也不,表示两者都不。根据下文“They don’t like to talk much”可知前句是否定意义,故选D。
22. —It’s said that people ________ in the Year of the Dog are loyal.
—Yes, it ________ true.
A. born; may be B. were born; may be C. born; maybe D. were born; maybe
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——据说狗年出生的人很忠诚。——是的,这可能是真的。
考查非谓语动词及may be和maybe的用法。born出生;may be可能是;were born出生;maybe可能,副词。根据“It’s said that people...in the Year of the Dog are loyal.”可知,“that”从句中有be动词are,所以空处用过去分词born作后置定语;根据“it...true.”可知,句子缺少谓语动词,故用“情态动词may+be动词”作谓语。故选A。
23. Young people must be ready _________ take _______ new challenges.
A. for; with B. to; on
C. for; for D. to; by
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:年轻人必须准备好迎接新的挑战。
考查短语。be ready for sth为某事做好准备;be ready to do...准备好做……;with和;on在……上;for为了;by通过;take on承担。根据“take”可知,be ready to do sth符合句意;根据“new challenges”可知,接受挑战,take on符合句意,故选B。
24. The high-speed railway ________ Shanghai ________ Nanjing makes our travel much quicker.
A. connects; to B. connecting; to C. connects; from D. connecting; from
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:连接上海和南京的高速铁路使我们的旅行更快。
考查动词短语及非谓语动词。connect…to…“……与……连接”,固定短语,故排除C、D两项。分析句子可知,The high-speed railway是主语,makes是谓语,our travel是宾语,much quicker是宾补,故“…Shanghai…Nanjing”是句子的定语,修饰主语,不能使用谓语动词connects,此处应用现在分词connecting。故选B。
25. We think ________ is generous ________ you to share your toys with your friends.
A. that; for B. it; for C. it; of D. that; of
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:我们认为你把玩具分享给你的朋友是很慷慨的。
考查固定句型和介词。分析题干可知,think后是省略that的宾语从句;从句是固定句型:it is+形容词+for/of sb to do sth,表示“对某人来说做某事是……”;of通常用来修饰人的品质和行为特征;for是用来修饰事物的特征。generous“慷慨的”,用来修饰人的品质,应用of。故选C。
26. She devoted all her lifetime ________ the poor people.
A. to help B. to helping C. for helping D. on helping
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:她一生致力于帮助穷人。
考查动词短语和非谓语动词。根据“devoted”可知,此处为固定搭配devote sth. to doing sth.“致力于做某事”,动名词helping“帮助”作介词to的宾语。故选B。
27. —The students sitting at the back can’t see the blackboard ________.
—Why not ________ them move forward?
A. clear enough; let B. enough clear; letting C. clearly enough; let D. enough clearly; letting
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——坐在后面的学生看不清楚黑板。——为什么不让他们向前移动一下呢?
考查副词和非谓语动词。clear清楚的,形容词;clearly清楚地,副词。enough足够的,修饰形容词或副词时,位于形容词或副词的后面,排除B项和D项。第一空修饰动词,应用副词。Why not do sth意为“为什么不做某事呢”,所以第二空用动词原形,故选C。
28. The visiting professor prefers giving lectures to students ________ invited to a meeting at times.
A. to being B. rather than C. than being D. to be
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:这位客座教授有时宁愿给学生讲课,而不愿被邀请参加会议。
考查动词短语辨析。“宁愿做某事,而不愿做某事”为prefer doing sth. to doing sth. 或prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.。根据前面“prefer giving”的形式可知,空处应用to being。故选A。
29. I wonder _______ he will come tomorrow or not. ________ he comes, please let me know at once.
A. whether; If B. if; Whether C. that; If D. whether; Whether
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:我想知道他明天是否会来。如果他来了,请马上告诉我。
考查从属连词辨析。whether是否;if如果,是否;that引导宾语从句时,无实际意义。分析“I wonder...he will come tomorrow or not.”可知,空处是宾语从句的引导词,意为“是否”,if不与or not连用,所以第一空应选whether;分析“...he comes, please let me know at once.”可知,此处表示如果他来了,请马上告诉“我”。因此第二空应选If引导此条件状语从句。故选A。
30. — Thank you for inviting us to the party.
— ________. I hope you can enjoy yourselves.
A. It doesn’t matter B. With pleasure C. It’s my pleasure D. Don’t say so
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——非常感谢你邀请我参加这个聚会。——不客气。我希望你能玩得开心。
考查交际用语。It doesn’t matter没关系,用在对方说抱歉的时候用;With pleasure“我很愿意”,用在别人请求你帮忙的时候;It’s my pleasure“不客气”,在对方说谢谢的时候可以用;Don’t say so“不要这么说”。根据“Thank you for...”可知,回答感谢,用不客气。故选C。

Devotion is the third key to success. No matter what we are doing, we must be devoted to it. At the same time, if we want to do something well, we must love it. Only in this way can we do it best.
Moreover, perseverance is also important. Without perseverance, we are likely to give up in face of difficulties, and we would miss the beautiful scene of success.
In short, success is not something easy to achieve. People who dream of success must improve themselves in these four aspects (方面).

Do you do team projects at school? I do a lot. I enjoy team projects because I like sharing ideas with other people. Of course, team activities aren’t always easy. You need to know how to work well together. Here are some suggestions to make teamwork easier.
1 Know the goals
Make sure everyone understands the goal of the project. If you’re doing a class project, you need to check the teacher’s instructions carefully and ask questions whenever something isn’t clear. There’s a popular saying: If you don’t know where you’re going,you probably won’t get there.
2 Assign (指派) roles
Everyone should have a role in the team. For example,there should be a leader who helps everyone make decisions. There might be a note-taker who writes down the team’s ideas during meetings, and a time-keeper to control the time. There might also be a fact-checker or a group speaker.
3 Divide the work
For large projects, the work can be divided into smaller tasks. Then you can choose tasks that you do well or enjoy. Of course, you shouldn’t always do the same task. It’s good to try new things,even if they’re difficult!
4 Make a plan
After you divide the work,write down a plan on paper. You can use a calendar to help you. List all the tasks and think about when each one must be finished. It’s important for everyone to follow the plan. And if you can’t finish your part on time, tell the others as soon as possible.
Try to be positive (积极的). Everything is easier when you’re enjoying yourself in the team.
53. How does the writer begin the passage?
A. By telling a story. B. By asking a question.
C. By showing a saying. D. By sending a message.
54. What is the leader’s main job in the team?
A. Controlling the activity time. B. Writing down the team’s ideas.
C. Making speeches for the team. D. Helping the others make decisions.
55. What should you do after dividing the work?
A. Set a clear goal. B. Work out a plan.
C. Decide everyone’s role. D. Check the teacher’s examples.
56. What is the writer trying to do in the text?
A. Introduce the teacher’s instructions. B. Give information about smaller tasks.
C. Explain the methods to do team projects. D. Describe the importance of creative ideas.

D
Do you know why different animals or pests (昆虫) have their special colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts (蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colours of crops (庄稼). When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest (收获) time comes, locusts change to the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night. If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of colouring is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters. This is because they have the colours much like the trees.

阅读短文,从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Have you ever had an experience where you meet someone new, learn their name and think to yourself, “____61____” What does this mean, exactly? Scientists are suggesting that humans like to connect people’s names with their appearance. ____62____
Researchers at the Hebrew University collected thousands of photos of people’s faces. They labelled (贴标签) each photo with four names. ____63____ The volunteers were able to guess the right name 38 percent of the time. It seems that humans are able to recognize certain characteristics of faces that can give them clues (线索) about someone’s name, Reader’s Digest reported.
However, this only works when we’re looking at names within our own culture. In addition, the volunteers were not as good at guessing the real names of people who use nicknames (昵称) more often than their real names. ____64____
The studies have shown that gender and race stereotypes (种族刻板印象) can affect a person’s appearance. The researchers believe there are also similar stereotypes about names. For example, people prefer to think that men named Bob should have rounder faces because the word itself looks round. ____65____ They expect them to be delicate (娇弱的) and feminine (有女性气质的), just like the flower they are named for.
A. Wow, they really look just like their name!
B. There are several ways to guess a stranger’s name.
C. People may think that women named Rose are beautiful.
D. Some can even guess others’ names based on how they look.
E. Then, they asked volunteers to guess which of the four names was correct.
F. This shows that a person’s appearance is affected by their name only if they use it often.
G. This kind of face-name matching happens as we become what others expect us to become.
【答案】61. A 62. D 63. E 64. F 65. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍人类喜欢把人们的名字和外表联系起来,甚至可以根据长相猜出某人的名字,因为人们对名字存在刻板印象,而当一个人经常使用名字时,他的外表也会受到他们名字的影响。
【61题详解】
根据“Have you ever had an experience where you meet someone new, learn their name and think to yourself,”可知,此处是讲有些人会认为某些人的名字和他们的外表有联系,选项A“哇,它们长得真像它们的名字!”符合语境。故选A。

根据“The volunteers were able to guess the right name 38 percent of the time.”和“The volunteers were able to guess the right name 38 percent of the time.”可知,此处与猜测照片有关,选项E“然后,他们要求志愿者猜测四个名字中哪个是正确的。”符合语境。故选E。
【64题详解】
根据“In addition, the volunteers were not as good at guessing the real names of people who use nicknames more often than their real names.”可知,志愿者们不擅长猜测那些常用昵称的人,因此名字对外貌产生影响,需要这个名字经常被使用。选项F“这表明,只有当一个人经常使用名字时,他的外表才会受到名字的影响。”符合语境。故选F。
【65题详解】
根据“For example, people prefer to think that men named Bob should have rounder faces because the word itself looks round.”和They expect them to be delicate and feminine, just like the flower they are named for.“”可知,此处说的是人们对名字的刻板印象,选项C“人们可能认为叫玫瑰的女人很漂亮。”符合语境。故选C。

Do you know what the body mass index (BMI, 体重指数) is? According to the National Health Service, BMI is a measure that uses your height and weight to work out if you are fit.
Some cities in China have included BMI in the PE test for zhongkao. For example, Beijing in 2021 announced a policy (政策) that BMI became a subject of the PE test for zhongkao. Chengdu and Shanghai have also started similar actions.
Zhang Yanshu is a Grade 8 student from Beijing Chaoyang Foreign Language School. He used to be overweight. “It was this summer that I decided to work on myBMI,” Zhang said. He started by running with his dad, and soon took a stamina (体能) course.
Zhang also paid much attention to his diet. His BMI reached a normal level after four months of effort. “My health and willpower (意志力) have seen a big improvement.”
Chen Kaifei, 14, also from Beijing said that BMI is also a problem for students who are too thin, and has caused some “figure anxiety” among students. “However, mostly I think it has a good influence,” Chen said. “Everyone has a better understanding of their body and health conditions, and I started to care about my diet and lifestyle every day, simply to improve my BMI.”

In modern times, everybody dreams of success. However, how can we achieve it? Some people believe that good luck is a key to success while others think that success depends on hard work.
Of course, successful people are better at taking advantage of (利用) their chances. But if he works little or just waits for help, he would never achieve success. So these personalities—confidence, diligence(勤奋), devotion (奉献) and perseverance (坚持) are the main factors (因素) to success.
Confidence is the first key to success. Without self-confidence, people would be unable to get up after a fall. Thus, they would lose many chances for success. Confidence plays a main role in achieving success.
Diligence, another factor, means no idling away time. Hard work makes a fool wise and a poor man rich. It helps us when we are in trouble. If we waste our time now, our life will be a failure (失败). If we work hard now, we will be successful in the future,
Devotion is the third key to success. No matter what we are doing, we must be devoted to it. At the same time, if we want to do something well, we must love it. Only in this way can we do it best.
Moreover, perseverance is also important. Without perseverance, we are likely to give up in face of difficulties, and we would miss the beautiful scene of success.
In short, success is not something easy to achieve. People who dream of success must improve themselves in these four aspects (方面).

Do you do team projects at school? I do a lot. I enjoy team projects because I like sharing ideas with other people. Of course, team activities aren’t always easy. You need to know how to work well together. Here are some suggestions to make teamwork easier.
1 Know the goals
Make sure everyone understands the goal of the project. If you’re doing a class project, you need to check the teacher’s instructions carefully and ask questions whenever something isn’t clear. There’s a popular saying: If you don’t know where you’re going,you probably won’t get there.
2 Assign (指派) roles
Everyone should have a role in the team. For example,there should be a leader who helps everyone make decisions. There might be a note-taker who writes down the team’s ideas during meetings, and a time-keeper to control the time. There might also be a fact-checker or a group speaker.
3 Divide the work
For large projects, the work can be divided into smaller tasks. Then you can choose tasks that you do well or enjoy. Of course, you shouldn’t always do the same task. It’s good to try new things,even if they’re difficult!
4 Make a plan
After you divide the work,write down a plan on paper. You can use a calendar to help you. List all the tasks and think about when each one must be finished. It’s important for everyone to follow the plan. And if you can’t finish your part on time, tell the others as soon as possible.
Try to be positive (积极的). Everything is easier when you’re enjoying yourself in the team.

Do you know why different animals or pests (昆虫) have their special colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts (蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colours of crops (庄稼). When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest (收获) time comes, locusts change to the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night. If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of colouring is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters. This is because they have the colours much like the trees.
Have you ever found an even stranger? A sea creature can send out a kind of black liquid (液体) when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over (散开), its enemies cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.

A. are small animals B. are easily found by birds

58. How can pests with different colours from plants keep themselves out of danger?

Have you ever had an experience where you meet someone new, learn their name and think to yourself, “____61____” What does this mean, exactly? Scientists are suggesting that humans like to connect people’s names with their appearance. ____62____
Researchers at the Hebrew University collected thousands of photos of people’s faces. They labelled (贴标签) each photo with four names. ____63____ The volunteers were able to guess the right name 38 percent of the time. It seems that humans are able to recognize certain characteristics of faces that can give them clues (线索) about someone’s name, Reader’s Digest reported.

The studies have shown that gender and race stereotypes (种族刻板印象) can affect a person’s appearance. The researchers believe there are also similar stereotypes about names. For example, people prefer to think that men named Bob should have rounder faces because the word itself looks round. ____65____ They expect them to be delicate (娇弱的) and feminine (有女性气质的), just like the flower they are named for.
A. Wow, they really look just like their name!
B. There are several ways to guess a stranger’s name.
C. People may think that women named Rose are beautiful.
D. Some can even guess others’ names based on how they look.

Do you know what the body mass index (BMI, 体重指数) is? According to the National Health Service, BMI is a measure that uses your height and weight to work out if you are fit.
Some cities in China have included BMI in the PE test for zhongkao. For example, Beijing in 2021 announced a policy (政策) that BMI became a subject of the PE test for zhongkao. Chengdu and Shanghai have also started similar actions.
