Chuanjiang Chants (川江号子) is a form of folk singing performed by Chuanjiang boatmen in order to unify their movements and rhythms (节奏). Chongqing and eastern Sichuan are the main birthplaces of the Chuanjiang Chants.
In the age of wooden boat shipping for thousands of years, the power (动力) of wooden boats on the river came from the body of the boatmen. Whenever they headed up against the river or when the boat crossed a shoal, the boatmen had to pull together. Moreover, the long journey was boring and boatmen needed something to relax, and the Chuanjiang Chants appeared.
Chuanjiang Chants is both technical and artistic. Boatmen control the direction of the boat just like a driver is responsible for that of a car. And chants are like the accelerator (油门) of a car, controlling the speed of the boat. Therefore, the chants can adjust (调整) the force of the boatmen through their rhythm, so that the ship can move forward smoothly (平稳地). At the same time, the chants are always sung in a bright voice, a good tone, and a beautiful sound. Therefore, it is also an art.
However, with the development and popularity of modern ships, Chuanjiang Chants is likely to be forgotten by people, facing an endangered situation. Our country paid great attention to the protection of it and it was included in the first national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) list. Hope that more and more people can get the chance to know the wonderful culture.
29.According to Para. 2, before Chuanjiang Chants appeared, how was the long journey for the boatmen?
A.Relaxing and happy. B.Boring and tiring.
C.Exciting and proud. D.Tiring but worthy.
30.The underlined word “that” in the third paragraph refers to ________.
A.the boat B.a boatman C.the direction D.the accelerator
31.Why does the writer say “Chuanjiang Chants is also an art”?
A.Because the chants can control the speed of the boats.
B.Because the chants can adjust the force of the boatmen.
C.Because the chants can control the direction of the boat.
D.Because the chants can be sung in a bright and beautiful voice.
32.What is the writer’s purpose of writing the passage?
A.To let more people know and remember the culture of Chuanjiang Chants.
B.To introduce how Chuanjiang Chants appeared.
C.To encourage readers to experience Chuanjiang Chants themselves.
D.To bring readers back to the old times.

This is an ordinary day for Yang Jinlong.
At 9 a.m, he drives to primary schools and middle schools in Xian Shanxi Province, to teach students about Shanxi kuaiban. It is a traditional Chinese form of storytelling to the rhythm of bamboo clappers(响板) which the art form is named after. Sometimes, he helps students prepare for competitions. Usually his classes run until about 6 p.m. and then he returns home to prepare classes for the next day.
On June 10 the Ministry of Culture and Tourism announced 325 national intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产) items in Beijing increasing the list to 1,557 items. Shanxi kuaiban, which appeared during the late Qing Dynasty, has been included. It has been introduced to local schools as part of their art education.
Yang has been teaching young people the art form since 2003 after graduating from the National Academy of Chinese Theatre Arts in Beijing. He studied quyi there. Quyi is a general term for Chinese folk art forms including storytelling crosstalk and clapper talk.
“Art education is important for students in China. Just as many students learn to play western musical instruments like the piano and violin there are many people learning traditional Chinese folk arts, including Shanxi kuaiban, which I’ll work for my whole life,” he said.
Kuaiban is popular in northern China, including Beijing and Tianjin. According to Yang, Shanxi kuaiban was influenced by the art of different areas. The art form can be played by a group of players or only one. With one or two pairs of kuaiban of different sizes in hand the players speak in the local dialect(方言) while telling stories, which are usually about heroes. The player tells stories while playing kuaiban and it’s easy for the watchers to remember the stories since all the lines have rhymes.
Thanks to artists like Yang, this traditional Chinese form of storytelling is passed on and stays alive in our country.
33.What does Yang usually do during school time according to paragraph 2?
A.He prepares lessons for teachers. B.He goes to schools and gives lessons.
C.He sends the bamboo clappers to students. D.He has a good time on Kuaiban by himself.
34.What is probably Yang Jinlong’s job according to the passage?
A.An officer. B.A teacher. C.A singer. D.An actor.
35.The main idea of paragraph 6 is ________.
A.how kuaiban is played B.where kuaiban is played
C.why kuaiban was invented D.when kuaiban was invented
36.According to the passage, if you want to be an artist like Yang, you should ________.
A.help primary students learn art B.work with effort and stick with the art
C.communicate with other artists patiently D.be active to play western musical instruments
D
It should be easy for you to recognize (认出) the faces of your family and friends. But can you remember faces that you’ve only seen once? You might think it is very difficult.
However, studies have found a small number of people have amazing facial recognition skills. They are so-called “super recognizers” who can remember at least 80 percent of faces they’ve seen.
It is unknown how many people truly have these skills. But studies show that at least one in 50 people are super recognizers, reported the Daily Mail.
Bournemouth University in the UK recently carried out a study, trying to find whether super recognizers have a different way to process faces.
They found that when these people look at faces, they spend more time looking at the person’s nose.
Researchers also found that these people are not particularly smarter than others. Their super ability is restricted (局限于) only to face recognition.
Another important finding is that there are subtypes (子类型) of super recognition.
Some super recognizers never forget faces. But for some, if you present pairs of faces to them at the same time, they can quickly decide whether the faces are of the same person or two different people.
In fact, many super recognizers say they are very good at “spotting (认出)” faces in a crowd.
These subtypes of super recognition could be applied to many areas of life. For example, the skills could be very useful at a passport control checkpoint (护照检查处).
Super recognizers could help match faces in CCTV footage (闭路电视镜头). They could also help police spot known troublemakers, bad people or even missing people in crowds.
37.The “super recognizers” can remember ________ of the faces they’ve seen.
A.all B.at least 80 percent C.at least 50 percent D.at least 20 percent
38.What did the university’s study find about super recognizers?
A.They spend the same time on one’s eyes and nose.
B.They pay more attention to a person’s nose.
C.They are a lot smarter than other people.
D.They are also very good at voice recognition.
39.What are the two subtypes of super recognition?
a. One type can recognize pairs of faces. b. One type can recognize faces in a crowd.
c. One type can recognize made-up faces. d. One type can easily draw a picture of the faces they saw.
A.ab B.bc C.cd D.ad
40.What do the last two paragraphs talk about?
A.More subtypes of super recognition. B.Reasons for different subtypes.
C.Uses of super recognition in some jobs. D.How to be a super recognizer.
四、信息还原(共5小题,每道题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项,使短文通顺连贯,其中有两项是多余选项。
Where in the world can you take an hour’s train ride, and pass a forest, a London street, a scene from the Wild West, and a burning building that never burns down? 41 The scenes you see from the tourist train are film sets(布景) in the Universal Studios, one of the oldest and largest movie companies in the US.
A visit to Universal Studios brings back memories of great days of Hollywood, the films and the stars. But they are only memories. 42 Costs have gone up and confidence has gone down. Movie- makers are afraid to spend their money on expensive new ideas. Instead, they repeat old ones.
The film industry is changing fast. Teenagers still go out to the movies. The theatre is a good place to meet friends away from home. 43 These “soap operas”, as they are called, show rich, powerful families living in beautiful homes and wearing beautiful clothes. But the actors and actresses are nearly all middle-aged, like many of the people who watch them.
Though they are soap operas that are keeping the film-makers of Hollywood in business, big films are still being made in America. 44 New York is the most important new center, but there are many others as well. Movie-makers have realized that they don’t need Hollywood any more. Modern cameras and real houses instead of expensively made copies in a studio. 45 They are offering better working conditions and lower cost.
But Hollywood is fighting back. The state of California is trying hard to keep its best-known industry.
A.But older people mostly stay at home to watch series, like Dynasty, which has become as important to Hollywood as expensive movies.
B.Other states, especially Florida and Texas, are working hard to take the film business away from California.
C.There’s only one place, and that’s Hollywood in California.
D.But more and more of them are made outside Hollywood.
E.Hollywood isn’t quite the same as it used to be.
F.The movies made in Hollywood are the most popular all over the world.
五、综合填空(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
阅读下面的短文,在短文空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。将所填答案填写在相应题号的横线上。
I first watched the movie Forrest Gump (阿甘正传) at the age of ten. The main character Gump is born 46 a learning disability and a physical problem. But he 47 (achieve) great success at last.
Last week I watched the movie again in my English class. After watching the movie, my teacher, Miss Li, replayed a short video in which Gump’s mother is dying. Then she asked us to describe these 48 (character) feelings. We also shared our understanding of a few lines (台词). After that, we discussed the following questions: How can you live a life worth 49 (live)? What should you do when facing death? Everyone had different 50 (idea).
Later, we were asked 51 (watch) the video again and read the lines together with the characters. Then we tried our best to copy their 52 (pronounce) and intonation (语调). And we 53 (require) to act out the lines.
From this class, we 54 (learn) not only some good ways to learn English, but also the meaning of life. As Gump says in the movie, “Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re going to get.” When we want to do something, we’d better work hard at it. Only in this way can we live 55 meaningful life.
六、首字母填空(共10小题,每小题1分,满分10分)
根据短文内容及首字母提示,填写所缺单词,使短文意思完整。
Have you ever had such a time when you f 56 in love with an English poem at the first sight but you have much d 57 fully understand it? Sometimes we find an English poem that attracts us at once, but usually a lot of time and effort (精力) are r 58 before we can truly understand the poem. Today I’d like to talk about reading English poems in the ways that make the experience better.
Firstly, read an English poem over and over again. This will make it easier for you to understand it better. Sometimes an English poem seems b 59 when you first read it, but it becomes more interesting after you read it once more. And its meanings are better understood t 60 repeated reading.
Secondly, keep a d 61 at hand when reading English poems. Poets like to use unusual words. I 62 of skipping over (跳过) these words or trying to guess their meanings, look them up.
Thirdly, read an English poem a 63 and listen to the poem. If you read in a voice that others can hear, it will make the poem’s rhythm clearer. Besides, you can understand the meanings from where the poet places emphasis (强调) or pauses (停顿). After you finish reading a poem, take a few more moments to think about w 64 it is saying.
To conclude, reading English poems in proper ways can enrich your experience, increase your enjoyment, and bring you a deeper t 65 about them so that you can completely understand in the end.
七、任务型阅读(共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)
阅读下面的短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
It was a hot summer day and I had just pulled into the gas station to fill up my car. After filling it up, I started to walk inside to pay. That is when I noticed them. Two elderly women were standing back from their car. There was shock and fear on their faces. I looked and saw what they saw: five yellow jackets(小黄蜂)building a nest around their gas gap. I suddenly felt scared. I shared the ladies’ fear.
Yellow jackets have never been friends of mine. Several times these wasps(黄蜂)have attacked me while I was cutting the grass, stinging(蛰)me each time I ran over their nests. The worst time, however, was when I was a young boy. A friend of mine and I were playing in my backyard. I must have stepped on one of their nests again because before I knew it, both of us were being chased and stung by the yellow jackets while we ran away screaming. I ran to my mom with tears in my eyes. She ran a cold bath and put us both in it to ease(减轻)the pain before giving us medicine to help us feel better.
Still, I knew I couldn’t let fear stop me now. I reached into my pocket for a paper towel I had there. I tore out the nest with the paper towel and stepped on it while the wasps were buzzing around me. Both of the ladies thanked me for what I did.
You can’t let the fear of being stung — either physically or emotionally —keep you from doing what is right. We need to love each other and change the world for the better. And the only way you can do this is through helpful acts and kindness. Don’t let the fear in your life hold you back.
66.When did the story happen?
67.Why was the writer scared of the wasps?
68.What did the writer’s mother do first after the writer got stung?
69.How did the writer save the two women?
70.What do you learn from the story?(请自拟一句作答)

Chuanjiang Chants (川江号子) is a form of folk singing performed by Chuanjiang boatmen in order to unify their movements and rhythms (节奏). Chongqing and eastern Sichuan are the main birthplaces of the Chuanjiang Chants.
In the age of wooden boat shipping for thousands of years, the power (动力) of wooden boats on the river came from the body of the boatmen. Whenever they headed up against the river or when the boat crossed a shoal, the boatmen had to pull together. Moreover, the long journey was boring and boatmen needed something to relax, and the Chuanjiang Chants appeared.
Chuanjiang Chants is both technical and artistic. Boatmen control the direction of the boat just like a driver is responsible for that of a car. And chants are like the accelerator (油门) of a car, controlling the speed of the boat. Therefore, the chants can adjust (调整) the force of the boatmen through their rhythm, so that the ship can move forward smoothly (平稳地). At the same time, the chants are always sung in a bright voice, a good tone, and a beautiful sound. Therefore, it is also an art.
However, with the development and popularity of modern ships, Chuanjiang Chants is likely to be forgotten by people, facing an endangered situation. Our country paid great attention to the protection of it and it was included in the first national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) list. Hope that more and more people can get the chance to know the wonderful culture.
29.According to Para. 2, before Chuanjiang Chants appeared, how was the long journey for the boatmen?
A.Relaxing and happy. B.Boring and tiring.
C.Exciting and proud. D.Tiring but worthy.
30.The underlined word “that” in the third paragraph refers to ________.
A.the boat B.a boatman C.the direction D.the accelerator
31.Why does the writer say “Chuanjiang Chants is also an art”?
A.Because the chants can control the speed of the boats.
B.Because the chants can adjust the force of the boatmen.
C.Because the chants can control the direction of the boat.
D.Because the chants can be sung in a bright and beautiful voice.
32.What is the writer’s purpose of writing the passage?
A.To let more people know and remember the culture of Chuanjiang Chants.
B.To introduce how Chuanjiang Chants appeared.
C.To encourage readers to experience Chuanjiang Chants themselves.
D.To bring readers back to the old times.

This is an ordinary day for Yang Jinlong.
At 9 a.m, he drives to primary schools and middle schools in Xian Shanxi Province, to teach students about Shanxi kuaiban. It is a traditional Chinese form of storytelling to the rhythm of bamboo clappers(响板) which the art form is named after. Sometimes, he helps students prepare for competitions. Usually his classes run until about 6 p.m. and then he returns home to prepare classes for the next day.
On June 10 the Ministry of Culture and Tourism announced 325 national intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产) items in Beijing increasing the list to 1,557 items. Shanxi kuaiban, which appeared during the late Qing Dynasty, has been included. It has been introduced to local schools as part of their art education.
Yang has been teaching young people the art form since 2003 after graduating from the National Academy of Chinese Theatre Arts in Beijing. He studied quyi there. Quyi is a general term for Chinese folk art forms including storytelling crosstalk and clapper talk.
“Art education is important for students in China. Just as many students learn to play western musical instruments like the piano and violin there are many people learning traditional Chinese folk arts, including Shanxi kuaiban, which I’ll work for my whole life,” he said.
Kuaiban is popular in northern China, including Beijing and Tianjin. According to Yang, Shanxi kuaiban was influenced by the art of different areas. The art form can be played by a group of players or only one. With one or two pairs of kuaiban of different sizes in hand the players speak in the local dialect(方言) while telling stories, which are usually about heroes. The player tells stories while playing kuaiban and it’s easy for the watchers to remember the stories since all the lines have rhymes.
Thanks to artists like Yang, this traditional Chinese form of storytelling is passed on and stays alive in our country.
33.What does Yang usually do during school time according to paragraph 2?
A.He prepares lessons for teachers. B.He goes to schools and gives lessons.
C.He sends the bamboo clappers to students. D.He has a good time on Kuaiban by himself.
34.What is probably Yang Jinlong’s job according to the passage?
A.An officer. B.A teacher. C.A singer. D.An actor.
35.The main idea of paragraph 6 is ________.
A.how kuaiban is played B.where kuaiban is played
C.why kuaiban was invented D.when kuaiban was invented
36.According to the passage, if you want to be an artist like Yang, you should ________.
A.help primary students learn art B.work with effort and stick with the art
C.communicate with other artists patiently D.be active to play western musical instruments
D
It should be easy for you to recognize (认出) the faces of your family and friends. But can you remember faces that you’ve only seen once? You might think it is very difficult.
However, studies have found a small number of people have amazing facial recognition skills. They are so-called “super recognizers” who can remember at least 80 percent of faces they’ve seen.
It is unknown how many people truly have these skills. But studies show that at least one in 50 people are super recognizers, reported the Daily Mail.
Bournemouth University in the UK recently carried out a study, trying to find whether super recognizers have a different way to process faces.
They found that when these people look at faces, they spend more time looking at the person’s nose.
Researchers also found that these people are not particularly smarter than others. Their super ability is restricted (局限于) only to face recognition.
Another important finding is that there are subtypes (子类型) of super recognition.
Some super recognizers never forget faces. But for some, if you present pairs of faces to them at the same time, they can quickly decide whether the faces are of the same person or two different people.
In fact, many super recognizers say they are very good at “spotting (认出)” faces in a crowd.
These subtypes of super recognition could be applied to many areas of life. For example, the skills could be very useful at a passport control checkpoint (护照检查处).
Super recognizers could help match faces in CCTV footage (闭路电视镜头). They could also help police spot known troublemakers, bad people or even missing people in crowds.
37.The “super recognizers” can remember ________ of the faces they’ve seen.
A.all B.at least 80 percent C.at least 50 percent D.at least 20 percent
38.What did the university’s study find about super recognizers?
A.They spend the same time on one’s eyes and nose.
B.They pay more attention to a person’s nose.
C.They are a lot smarter than other people.
D.They are also very good at voice recognition.
39.What are the two subtypes of super recognition?
a. One type can recognize pairs of faces. b. One type can recognize faces in a crowd.
c. One type can recognize made-up faces. d. One type can easily draw a picture of the faces they saw.
A.ab B.bc C.cd D.ad
40.What do the last two paragraphs talk about?
A.More subtypes of super recognition. B.Reasons for different subtypes.
C.Uses of super recognition in some jobs. D.How to be a super recognizer.
四、信息还原(共5小题,每道题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项,使短文通顺连贯,其中有两项是多余选项。
Where in the world can you take an hour’s train ride, and pass a forest, a London street, a scene from the Wild West, and a burning building that never burns down? 41 The scenes you see from the tourist train are film sets(布景) in the Universal Studios, one of the oldest and largest movie companies in the US.
A visit to Universal Studios brings back memories of great days of Hollywood, the films and the stars. But they are only memories. 42 Costs have gone up and confidence has gone down. Movie- makers are afraid to spend their money on expensive new ideas. Instead, they repeat old ones.
The film industry is changing fast. Teenagers still go out to the movies. The theatre is a good place to meet friends away from home. 43 These “soap operas”, as they are called, show rich, powerful families living in beautiful homes and wearing beautiful clothes. But the actors and actresses are nearly all middle-aged, like many of the people who watch them.
Though they are soap operas that are keeping the film-makers of Hollywood in business, big films are still being made in America. 44 New York is the most important new center, but there are many others as well. Movie-makers have realized that they don’t need Hollywood any more. Modern cameras and real houses instead of expensively made copies in a studio. 45 They are offering better working conditions and lower cost.
But Hollywood is fighting back. The state of California is trying hard to keep its best-known industry.
A.But older people mostly stay at home to watch series, like Dynasty, which has become as important to Hollywood as expensive movies.
B.Other states, especially Florida and Texas, are working hard to take the film business away from California.
C.There’s only one place, and that’s Hollywood in California.
D.But more and more of them are made outside Hollywood.
E.Hollywood isn’t quite the same as it used to be.
F.The movies made in Hollywood are the most popular all over the world.

I first watched the movie Forrest Gump (阿甘正传) at the age of ten. The main character Gump is born 46 a learning disability and a physical problem. But he 47 (achieve) great success at last.
Last week I watched the movie again in my English class. After watching the movie, my teacher, Miss Li, replayed a short video in which Gump’s mother is dying. Then she asked us to describe these 48 (character) feelings. We also shared our understanding of a few lines (台词). After that, we discussed the following questions: How can you live a life worth 49 (live)? What should you do when facing death? Everyone had different 50 (idea).
Later, we were asked 51 (watch) the video again and read the lines together with the characters. Then we tried our best to copy their 52 (pronounce) and intonation (语调). And we 53 (require) to act out the lines.
From this class, we 54 (learn) not only some good ways to learn English, but also the meaning of life. As Gump says in the movie, “Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re going to get.” When we want to do something, we’d better work hard at it. Only in this way can we live 55 meaningful life.

七、任务型阅读(共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)
阅读下面的短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
It was a hot summer day and I had just pulled into the gas station to fill up my car. After filling it up, I started to walk inside to pay. That is when I noticed them. Two elderly women were standing back from their car. There was shock and fear on their faces. I looked and saw what they saw: five yellow jackets(小黄蜂)building a nest around their gas gap. I suddenly felt scared. I shared the ladies’ fear.
Yellow jackets have never been friends of mine. Several times these wasps(黄蜂)have attacked me while I was cutting the grass, stinging(蛰)me each time I ran over their nests. The worst time, however, was when I was a young boy. A friend of mine and I were playing in my backyard. I must have stepped on one of their nests again because before I knew it, both of us were being chased and stung by the yellow jackets while we ran away screaming. I ran to my mom with tears in my eyes. She ran a cold bath and put us both in it to ease(减轻)the pain before giving us medicine to help us feel better.
Still, I knew I couldn’t let fear stop me now. I reached into my pocket for a paper towel I had there. I tore out the nest with the paper towel and stepped on it while the wasps were buzzing around me. Both of the ladies thanked me for what I did.
You can’t let the fear of being stung — either physically or emotionally —keep you from doing what is right. We need to love each other and change the world for the better. And the only way you can do this is through helpful acts and kindness. Don’t let the fear in your life hold you back.

A.a B.an C./ D.the
【答案】B
【详解】句意:张桂梅是一位不同寻常的老师。她在2008年创立了第一所免费女子高中。
考查冠词的用法。a一,表泛指,用于辅音音素开头的单词前;an一,表泛指,用于元音音素开头的单词前;/零冠词;the定冠词,表特指。根据“Zhang Guimei is ... unusual teacher”可知,此处表泛指,表示“一位不同寻常的老师”,unusual是以元音音素开头的单词,应用an。故选B。
2.It is very ____________ for teenagers to feel lonely and misunderstood since most of us have such feelings.
A.common B.strange C.curious D.energetic
【答案】A
【详解】句意:对青少年而言,感到孤独和被误解是很普遍的,因为我们大多数人都有这样的感觉。A. common常见的,普遍的;B. strange奇怪的,陌生的;C. curious好奇的;D. energetic精力充沛的。根据“since most of us have such feelings.”判断,大多数人都有这样的感觉应该属于一种普遍现象,故答案为A。

A.more pleasant B.less pleasant
C.the most pleasant D.the least pleasant

4.— What did your Chinese teacher say just now?
— She asked us to________ a story about a trip to the moon.
A.give up B.make up C.cut up D.turn up
【答案】B
【详解】句意:——你的语文老师刚才说了什么?——她让我们编一个关于月球旅行的故事。
考查动词短语。give up放弃;make up编造;cut up切碎;turn up调高;根据句意理解及后句a story about a trip to the moon可知,这里表达的是“编一个故事”,故选B。
5.—Will you go to Lisa's housewarming party next Sunday?
—Well, if I________, I will go on time.
A.invite B.will invite C.am invited D.will be invited
【答案】C
【详解】句意:——下星期天你会去丽莎的乔迁派对吗?——嗯,如果我被邀请,我会准时去的。
考查被动语态。invite邀请,动词原形;will invite动词一般将来形式;am invited一般现在时的被动语态;will be invited一般将来时的被动语态。根据空前主语I与选项动词invite,结合语境可知,主语I和选项动词invite之间是被动关系,表示“被邀请”,因此用被动语态;if引导的条件状语从句,遵循主将从现的原则,主句一般将来时,从句一般现在时,因此从句用一般现在时的被动语态,其构成是am/is/are done,主语是I,所以此处用am invited。故选C。

A.across B.over C.through D.beyond
【答案】D
【详解】句意:故事的结尾是如此令人惊讶,完全超出了我的想象。

C.so an interesting picnic D.such interesting a picnic
【答案】B
【详解】句意:——Ted,你是如何让父亲节变得特别的?——哦,我们进行了一次如此有趣的野餐,以至于我父亲深受感动。
考查so...that/such...that句型。根据“we had ...that...”可知,是如此有趣的野餐。such+形容词+可数名词复数+that从句,表示“如此……以至于……”,选项A中的“picnic”为单数,故错误;so+形容词+a/an+名词单数+that从句,表示“如此……以至于……”,选项B符合此结构,所以选项C错误;such+a/an+形容词+名词单数+that从句,表示“如此……以至于……”,即选项D错误。故选B。
8.________ the workers in the computer factory is about two thousand, and ________ them are women workers.
A.The number of; the number of B.A number of; the number of
C.A number of; a number of D.The number of; a number of
【答案】D
【详解】句意:这家电脑厂的工人人数约为2000人,其中有大量的女工。
考查the number of和a number of的区别。the number of...“……的数量”,后面接可数名词复数,作主语时,谓语动词用单数;a number of...“许多,大量的”,后面接可数名词复数,作主语时,谓语动词用复数。根据“...the workers in the computer factory is”可知,谓语是单数形式is,指的是工人的数量,用the number of。根据“... them are women workers”可知,谓语是复数形式are,指的是他们中的许多人,用a number of。故选D。
9.When the typhoon arrived, it rained so ________ that people could ________ move in the rain.
A.hard; hard B.hardly; hardly C.hardly; hard D.hard; hardly
【答案】D
【详解】句意:台风来袭时,雨下得很大,人们在雨中几乎不能走动。
考查hard和hardly的区别用法。hard努力地;猛力地;hardly几乎不。根据句意可知是雨下的很大,用hard修饰rained,排除BC。第二空意为“人们几乎不能走动”,填hardly,故选D。
10.—Could you please tell me ________?
—Sorry, I’m not sure. You can ask Mr. Wang, our head teacher.
A.why will Music and Art enter our final entrance exam
B.when Music and Art would enter our final entrance exam
C.that Music and Art will enter our final entrance exam
D.whether Music and Art will enter our final entrance exam
【答案】D
【详解】句意:——你能告诉我音乐和美术是否会在我们的期末入学考试里吗?——对不起,我不确定。你可以问我们的班主任王老师。
考查宾语从句。根据“Could you please tell me....?”可知,此句是宾语从句,用陈述句语序,故排除选项A;“Could”可以,表示委婉语气,时态是现在时,从句部分不能用过去将来时“would enter”,故排除选项B;根据答句“I’m not sure”可知,问句是在询问“音乐和美术是否会加入期末考试”,whether“是否”,宾语从句引导词。故选D。

Chuanjiang Chants (川江号子) is a form of folk singing performed by Chuanjiang boatmen in order to unify their movements and rhythms (节奏). Chongqing and eastern Sichuan are the main birthplaces of the Chuanjiang Chants.
In the age of wooden boat shipping for thousands of years, the power (动力) of wooden boats on the river came from the body of the boatmen. Whenever they headed up against the river or when the boat crossed a shoal, the boatmen had to pull together. Moreover, the long journey was boring and boatmen needed something to relax, and the Chuanjiang Chants appeared.
Chuanjiang Chants is both technical and artistic. Boatmen control the direction of the boat just like a driver is responsible for that of a car. And chants are like the accelerator (油门) of a car, controlling the speed of the boat. Therefore, the chants can adjust (调整) the force of the boatmen through their rhythm, so that the ship can move forward smoothly (平稳地). At the same time, the chants are always sung in a bright voice, a good tone, and a beautiful sound. Therefore, it is also an art.
However, with the development and popularity of modern ships, Chuanjiang Chants is likely to be forgotten by people, facing an endangered situation. Our country paid great attention to the protection of it and it was included in the first national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) list. Hope that more and more people can get the chance to know the wonderful culture.
29.According to Para. 2, before Chuanjiang Chants appeared, how was the long journey for the boatmen?
A.Relaxing and happy. B.Boring and tiring.
C.Exciting and proud. D.Tiring but worthy.
30.The underlined word “that” in the third paragraph refers to ________.
A.the boat B.a boatman C.the direction D.the accelerator
31.Why does the writer say “Chuanjiang Chants is also an art”?
A.Because the chants can control the speed of the boats.
B.Because the chants can adjust the force of the boatmen.
C.Because the chants can control the direction of the boat.
D.Because the chants can be sung in a bright and beautiful voice.
32.What is the writer’s purpose of writing the passage?
A.To let more people know and remember the culture of Chuanjiang Chants.

It should be easy for you to recognize (认出) the faces of your family and friends. But can you remember faces that you’ve only seen once? You might think it is very difficult.
However, studies have found a small number of people have amazing facial recognition skills. They are so-called “super recognizers” who can remember at least 80 percent of faces they’ve seen.
It is unknown how many people truly have these skills. But studies show that at least one in 50 people are super recognizers, reported the Daily Mail.
Bournemouth University in the UK recently carried out a study, trying to find whether super recognizers have a different way to process faces.
They found that when these people look at faces, they spend more time looking at the person’s nose.
Researchers also found that these people are not particularly smarter than others. Their super ability is restricted (局限于) only to face recognition.
Another important finding is that there are subtypes (子类型) of super recognition.
Some super recognizers never forget faces. But for some, if you present pairs of faces to them at the same time, they can quickly decide whether the faces are of the same person or two different people.
In fact, many super recognizers say they are very good at “spotting (认出)” faces in a crowd.
These subtypes of super recognition could be applied to many areas of life. For example, the skills could be very useful at a passport control checkpoint (护照检查处).
Super recognizers could help match faces in CCTV footage (闭路电视镜头). They could also help police spot known troublemakers, bad people or even missing people in crowds.
37.The “super recognizers” can remember ________ of the faces they’ve seen.
A.all B.at least 80 percent C.at least 50 percent D.at least 20 percent
38.What did the university’s study find about super recognizers?
A.They spend the same time on one’s eyes and nose.
B.They pay more attention to a person’s nose.
C.They are a lot smarter than other people.
D.They are also very good at voice recognition.
39.What are the two subtypes of super recognition?
a. One type can recognize pairs of faces. b. One type can recognize faces in a crowd.
c. One type can recognize made-up faces. d. One type can easily draw a picture of the faces they saw.
A.ab B.bc C.cd D.ad
40.What do the last two paragraphs talk about?
A.More subtypes of super recognition. B.Reasons for different subtypes.
C.Uses of super recognition in some jobs. D.How to be a super recognizer.
【答案】37.B 38.B 39.A 40.C
【导语】本文介绍了超级识别者及其面部识别技能。研究发现,有些人具有惊人的面部识别能力,可以记住他们见过的至少80%的面孔。另外还有一些不同的超识别的子类型可以在许多领域中应用,例如护照检查处、闭路电视镜头和警方在人群中识别已知的麻烦制造者、坏人或失踪人员等。
37.细节理解题。根据“They are so-called ‘super recognizers’ who can remember at least 80 percent of faces they’ve seen.”可知,他们是所谓的“超级识别者”,能记住他们见过的至少80%的人脸。故选B。

39.细节理解题。根据“But for some, if you present pairs of faces to them at the same time, they can quickly decide whether the faces are of the same person or two different people.”可知,对一些人来说,如果你同时向他们展示几张脸,他们可以很快决定这些脸是同一个人的还是两个不同的人的,a正确;根据“In fact, many super recognizers say they are very good at ‘spotting (认出)’ faces in a crowd.”可知,事实上,许多超级识别者表示,他们非常善于在人群中“识别”人脸,b正确。故选A。
40.主旨大意题。根据“For example, the skills could be very useful at a passport control checkpoint”及“Super recognizers could help match faces in CCTV footage”可知,最后两段介绍的是超级识别在某些职业中的应用。故选C。

A visit to Universal Studios brings back memories of great days of Hollywood, the films and the stars. But they are only memories. 42 Costs have gone up and confidence has gone down. Movie- makers are afraid to spend their money on expensive new ideas. Instead, they repeat old ones.
The film industry is changing fast. Teenagers still go out to the movies. The theatre is a good place to meet friends away from home. 43 These “soap operas”, as they are called, show rich, powerful families living in beautiful homes and wearing beautiful clothes. But the actors and actresses are nearly all middle-aged, like many of the people who watch them.

Movie-makers have realized that they don’t need Hollywood any more. Modern cameras and real houses instead of expensively made copies in a studio. 45 They are offering better working conditions and lower cost.

65.句意:总之,以适当的方式阅读英语诗歌可以丰富你的经验,增加你的乐趣,并使你对它们有更深的思考,以至于你最终能完全理解。根据“enrich your experience, increase your enjoyment, and bring you a deeper t...about them ”可知,指的是对诗有更深的思考,应用名词thought “思考”。故填(t)hought。
七、任务型阅读(共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)
阅读下面的短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
It was a hot summer day and I had just pulled into the gas station to fill up my car. After filling it up, I started to walk inside to pay. That is when I noticed them. Two elderly women were standing back from their car. There was shock and fear on their faces. I looked and saw what they saw: five yellow jackets(小黄蜂)building a nest around their gas gap. I suddenly felt scared. I shared the ladies’ fear.
Yellow jackets have never been friends of mine. Several times these wasps(黄蜂)have attacked me while I was cutting the grass, stinging(蛰)me each time I ran over their nests. The worst time, however, was when I was a young boy. A friend of mine and I were playing in my backyard. I must have stepped on one of their nests again because before I knew it, both of us were being chased and stung by the yellow jackets while we ran away screaming. I ran to my mom with tears in my eyes. She ran a cold bath and put us both in it to ease(减轻)the pain before giving us medicine to help us feel better.
Still, I knew I couldn’t let fear stop me now. I reached into my pocket for a paper towel I had there. I tore out the nest with the paper towel and stepped on it while the wasps were buzzing around me. Both of the ladies thanked me for what I did.
You can’t let the fear of being stung — either physically or emotionally —keep you from doing what is right. We need to love each other and change the world for the better. And the only way you can do this is through helpful acts and kindness. Don’t let the fear in your life hold you back.
66.When did the story happen?
67.Why was the writer scared of the wasps?
68.What did the writer’s mother do first after the writer got stung?
69.How did the writer save the two women?
70.What do you learn from the story?(请自拟一句作答)
【答案】66.On a hot summer day. 67.Because he was attacked several times (by these wasps). 68.She ran a cold bath and put him in it. 69.He tore out the nest and stepped on it. 70.Don’t let fear in our life hold us back./ …
【导语】本文讲述了在加油站加油时,作者看到加油站里有两人害怕黄蜂,尽管有儿时可怕的经历,作者还是战胜恐惧将黄蜂驱赶,帮助了两位老人。
66.根据“It was a hot summer day and I had just pulled into the gas station to fill up my car.”可知,故事发生在一个炎热的夏天。故填On a hot summer day.
67.根据“Several times these wasps(黄蜂)have attacked me while I was cutting the grass, stinging(蛰)me each time I ran over their nests.”可知,因为他被(黄蜂)袭击了好几次。故填Because he was attacked several times (by these wasps).
68.根据“She ran a cold bath and put us both in it to ease(减轻)the pain before giving us medicine to help us feel better.”可知,她放好冷水,然后把作者放了进去。故填She ran a cold bath and put him in it.
69.根据“I tore out the nest with the paper towel and stepped on it while the wasps were buzzing around me.”可知,他撕开巢,踩了上去。故填He tore out the nest and stepped on it.
70.通读全文可知,本文讲述了在加油站加油时,作者看到加油站里有两人害怕黄蜂,尽管有儿时可怕的经历,作者还是战胜恐惧将黄蜂驱赶,帮助了两位老人。因此可以通过本文可以学到:不要让生活中的恐惧阻碍我们。故填Don’t let fear in our life hold us back./ …
