The sentence “So they stepped on the ice and started to go across the pond.” is missing. Where should we put it, A, B, C or D? ____________________________________ 55. What lesson might Harry and Annie learn? ____________________________________ 【答案】51. They walked to school. 52. Don’t go across the pond. 53. 解冻 54. C 55. Listen to mother’s advice.   【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了两个孩子上学路上没有听从妈妈的叮嘱，而继续在结冰的湖面上滑行，结果发生意外的故事，幸亏获救，同时也一直铭记了这次教训。 【51题详解】 根据“It was a pleasant walk around the pond (池塘) on their way to school.”可知他们走路去上学。故填They walked to school. 【52题详解】 根据“Don’t go across the pond today, children”可知妈妈建议他们不要穿过池塘。故填Don’t go across the pond. 【53题详解】 根据“They had not gone far before the ice gave way, and suddenly they fell into the water.”可知掉进了水了，由此推出冰要开始解冻了，thaw是“解冻”的意思。故填“解冻”。 【54题详解】 “So they stepped on the ice and started to go across the pond.”意为：于是他们踏上冰面，开始穿过池塘。应该放在冰融化，人掉进水里之前，放在C处最合适。故填C。 【55题详解】 从故事结局可推断，孩子们学会倾听母亲的建议是最终的教训。故填Listen to mother’s advice. 七、连词成句（共5小题；每小题2 分, 满分10分） 56. a busy day helps relax reading books me after ____________________________________. 【答案】Reading books helps me relax after a busy day 【解析】 【详解】根据标点可知，句子是陈述句。句子的主语是“Reading books”，谓语是“helps”，宾语是“me”，补语是“relax”，状语是“after a busy day”。故填Reading books helps me relax after a busy day“在忙碌一天后阅读书籍可以帮助我放松”。 57. you mind showing would me to online how book tickets ____________________________________? 【答案】Would you mind showing me how to book tickets online 【解析】 【详解】根据标点符号可知是一般疑问句，考查句型：Would you mind doing sth.你介意做某事吗，show sb sth给某人展示某物，此处用me作show的宾语，how to book tickets如何订票，online在线上。故填Would you mind showing me how to book tickets online“你介意教我如何在线订票吗”。 58. use people often to information computers search for ____________________________________. 【答案】People often use computers to search for information 【解析】 【详解】根据所给词可知此处是陈述句，主语people，句子开头首字母大写，often置于主谓之间；use sth. to do sth.“用某物来做某事”。故填People often use computers to search for information“人们经常使用计算机来搜索信息”。 59. Mike a member of been for the reading club has two years ____________________________________. 【答案】Mike has been a member of the reading club for two years 【解析】 【详解】根据所给单词以及标点符号可知，句子是肯定句，Mike作主语；has been“已经成为”，作谓语动词；a member of the reading club“阅读俱乐部的成员”，作宾语；for two years“两年”，作时间状语。故填Mike has been a member of the reading club for two years“迈克成为阅读俱乐部的成员已经两年了”。 60. tell can him anything he I keep secrets can because ____________________________________. 【答案】I can tell him anything because he can keep secrets 【解析】 【详解】because引导原因状语从句；主语I作主语；can tell作谓语；him作间接宾语；anything做直接宾语；从句中he作主语；can keep作谓语；secrets作宾语。故填I can tell him anything because he can keep secrets“我可以告诉他任何事情，因为他能保守秘密”。 八、书面表达（满分20分） 61. 假如你校英文校刊正在开展“Travelling”的主题征文活动。请你根据下面提示，用英语写一篇短文投稿，谈谈你难忘的(unforgettable)一次旅行经历和你对旅行的看法。 注意： 1. 语句通顺，条理清晰，适当发挥，书写规范； 2. 词数90左右，文中不得出现真实姓名、校名和地名等。 __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 I like travelling very much.
