Rain forests are located (位于) around the equator (赤道). It is very warm around the equator. The rain forest stays at 75°F-80°F all year round. The rain forests are wet! Very wet! In fact, rain forests can get between 160 and 300 inches of rain each year. Because the rain forests are always warm and wet, plants grow all year long. Count on Me, and I’ll Count on You In the rain forest, plants, animals, and people need one another to live. Almost everything that falls to the forest floor is reused. When plants and animals die, they break down and feed living plants. In turn, those plants give food and shelter (庇护所) to people, animals, and other plants. Water in the rain forest is also reused. It evaporates (蒸发), forms clouds, and then falls back to Earth as rain. Gifts from the Rain Forest The rain forests may seem very far away, but you use something from them every day! For example, do you like chocolate? Thank the rain forests! Rain forests are a huge source (来源) of food. Fruits such as mangoes and bananas come from the rain forests. So do many nuts, spices (香料), and vegetables. Many medicines also come from the rain forests. One-fifth of the world’s fresh water is in the Amazon rain forest. The rain forests affect (影响) rainfall, which in turn affects climate (气候) around the world. 23. Where are rain forests? A. Around the equator. B. All around the world, C. In the northern part of Earth. D. In the warm and dry places. 24. What does the underlined phrase “count on” in Paragraph 2 mean in Chinese? A. 计数 B. 使用 C. 依靠 D. 合作 25. What can we learn from the passage? A. The rain forests are far away from our life. B. Many plants and animals can’t live well in the rain forests C. The rain forests provide all the fresh water in the world. D. The rain forests affect the rainfall and the climate around the world. 【答案】23. A 24. C 25. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了热带雨林。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Rain forests are located (位于) around the equator (赤道).”可知，热带雨林位于赤道附近。故选A。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“In the rain forest, plants, animals, and people need one another to live”可知，在雨林里，植物、动物和人都需要彼此依靠而生存，故可推测出划线部分为“依靠”的意思。故选C。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The rain forests affect (影响) rainfall, which in turn affects climate (气候) around the world.”可知，雨林影响降雨，进而影响全球气候，因此雨林会影响降雨和全球气候。故选D。 B Imagine spending your nights sleeping thousands of times, each time for only four seconds. Does it sound like a nightmare (噩梦)? Well, that’s exactly how chinstrap penguin (帽带企鹅) parents sleep. Like other penguins, chinstrap penguins spend much of their time in the water, catching fish to eat. But when the time comes to raise their young, they return to land. They lay the eggs in nests (巢) made of small rocks. One parent keeps the nest safe, while the other hunts for food. For one thing, Brown skuas (贼鸥) like to attack (攻击) the eggs and young penguins. Besides, other penguins nearby may take rocks from the nest, putting the young in danger. It can be dangerous for the young if their parents get a good night’s sleep. However, staying awake for 24 hours a day is hard for penguin parents. Faced with these challenges, chinstrap penguins have found an unusual way to solve the problem. When scientist first noticed chinstrap penguins kept blinking (眨) their eyes, they wondered if more was happening than just blinking. So they tested the brain (大脑) activity of the penguins and recorded the birds on video. The study showed that the tired parents were actually sleeping very often and for very short time periods! Each sleep lasts only about four seconds. By taking over 10,000 microsleeps a day, the penguins get a total of about 1l hours of sleep a day. How amazing! It’s not clear if the microsleeps help the penguins feel truly rested, or if they’re just enough to keep them going. The scientists don’t know if the penguins sleep this way at other times of the year, or only when they’re raising their young. They also don’t know if other kinds of penguins have similar sleeping habits, Further research is needed to learn more about these flightless birds. 26. What does the passage tell us about chinstrap penguins? A. Their living environment. B. Their sleeping habits. C. Their eating habits. D. Their future life. 27. How long do chinstrap penguins sleep a day by using microsleeps? A. Four 4 seconds. B. Over 10,000 seconds. C About 11 hours. D. About 24 hours. 28. How did the scientists do the study? A. By drawing the tired parents’ notice. B. By showing dangers to the penguins. C. By recording sleeping habits of all kinds of penguins. D. By testing chinstrap penguins’ brain activity and recording videos. 29. What can we learn from the passage? A. Raising young penguins is a challenging task B. All kinds of penguins take microsleeps every day. C. The penguins nearby will help look after chinstrap penguins D. Chinstrap penguin parents don’t work with each other well 【答案】26. B 27. C 28. D 29. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲的是帽带企鹅的短睡眠习惯及其原因。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“Well, that’s exactly how chinstrap penguin (帽带企鹅) parents sleep.”，可知，本文主要讲述了帽带企鹅睡眠的习惯，每次睡4秒，一天睡11个小时。故选B。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“By taking over 10,000 microsleeps a day, the penguins get a total of about 1l hours of sleep a day. How amazing!”可知，帽带企鹅通过微睡眠一天总共有11个小时睡觉时间。故选C。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“So they tested the brain (大脑) activity of the penguins and recorded the birds on video.”可知，科学家测试帽带企鹅的大脑活动以及记录他们录像来进行研究。故选D。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据“For one thing, Brown skuas (贼鸥) like to attack (攻击) the eggs and young penguins.”以及“Besides, other penguins nearby may take rocks from the nest, putting the young in danger. It can be dangerous for the young if their parents get a good night’s sleep.”可知，褐贼鸥喜欢攻击蛋和幼企鹅，其他的附近的企鹅可能会从巢穴中取走岩石，使幼崽处于危险之中，从而推断出养育小的带帽企鹅是非常有挑战性的任务。故选A。 五、信息还原(共4小题;每小题 1.5分, 满分6分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项（选项中有两项为多余选项）。 Let’s imagine this: Your parents are not in for a week.

Perhaps this is...the game is recommended to students.”可知，前一个分句是后一个分句的原因，why符合语境。故填why。 【43题详解】 句意：国际象棋需要创造性的思维来制定新的策略。空后是名词，可知空处填形容词修饰名词，create“创造”，动词，形容词是creative“创造性的”。故填creative。 【44题详解】 句意：这对儿童和成年人都适用。both...and...意为“两者都”，此处表示儿童和成年人。故填and。 【45题详解】 句意：国际象棋不是为没有耐心的人准备的。根据“This game requires players to spend a lot of time thinking and to be very patient in the face of challenges. ”可知，这个游戏需要耐心，此处应该表示“它不是为没有耐心的人准备的”，patient“耐心的”，此处需用表示否定意义的词，impatient“没有耐心的”符合语境。故填impatient。 【46题详解】 句意：如果你对这项游戏不够耐心，不用担心。此处是if引导的条件状语从句，时态用一般现在时，从句表示否定意义，be动词作谓语，否定结构是be not，主语是you，be动词用are。故填aren’t。 【47题详解】 句意：无论你是经验丰富的棋手还是初学者，现在都是开始下棋的最佳时机。or引导的前后两部分结构是一致的，根据“an experienced player”可知，此处指“一个初学者”，用不定冠词a。故填a。 八、根据所给中文完成句子译(共6小题, 每小题15分, 满分9分) 48. 熬夜看电视对我们的健康有害。 It’s bad ________. 【答案】for our health to stay up late to watch TV 【解析】 【详解】“做某事对……来说是……的”it’s adj. for ... to do sth.；“我们的健康”our health；“熬夜”stay up late；“看电视”watch TV，熬夜的目的是看电视，用动词不定式。故填for our health to stay up late to watch TV。 49. 令我们惊讶的是， 她既会说英语也会说日语。 ____________________, she can ____________________________. 【答案】 ①.

Rain forests are located (位于) around the equator (赤道). It is very warm around the equator. The rain forest stays at 75°F-80°F all year round. The rain forests are wet! Very wet! In fact, rain forests can get between 160 and 300 inches of rain each year. Because the rain forests are always warm and wet, plants grow all year long. Count on Me, and I’ll Count on You In the rain forest, plants, animals, and people need one another to live. Almost everything that falls to the forest floor is reused. When plants and animals die, they break down and feed living plants. In turn, those plants give food and shelter (庇护所) to people, animals, and other plants. Water in the rain forest is also reused. It evaporates (蒸发), forms clouds, and then falls back to Earth as rain. Gifts from the Rain Forest The rain forests may seem very far away, but you use something from them every day! For example, do you like chocolate? Thank the rain forests! Rain forests are a huge source (来源) of food. Fruits such as mangoes and bananas come from the rain forests. So do many nuts, spices (香料), and vegetables. Many medicines also come from the rain forests. One-fifth of the world’s fresh water is in the Amazon rain forest. The rain forests affect (影响) rainfall, which in turn affects climate (气候) around the world. 23. Where are rain forests? A. Around the equator. B. All around the world, C. In the northern part of Earth. D. In the warm and dry places. 24. What does the underlined phrase “count on” in Paragraph 2 mean in Chinese? A. 计数 B. 使用 C. 依靠 D. 合作 25. What can we learn from the passage? A. The rain forests are far away from our life. B. Many plants and animals can’t live well in the rain forests C. The rain forests provide all the fresh water in the world. D. The rain forests affect the rainfall and the climate around the world. B Imagine spending your nights sleeping thousands of times, each time for only four seconds. Does it sound like a nightmare (噩梦)? Well, that’s exactly how chinstrap penguin (帽带企鹅) parents sleep. Like other penguins chinstrap penguins spend much of their time in the water, catching fish to eat. But when the time comes to raise their young, they return to land. They lay the eggs in nests (巢) made of small rocks. One parent keeps the nest safe, while the other hunts for food. For one thing, Brown skuas (贼鸥) like to attack (攻击) the eggs and young penguins. Besides, other penguins nearby may take rocks from the nest, putting the young in danger. It can be dangerous for the young if their parents get a good night’s sleep. However, staying awake for 24 hours a day is hard for penguin parents. Faced with these challenges, chinstrap penguins have found an unusual way to solve the problem. When scientist first noticed chinstrap penguins kept blinking (眨) their eyes, they wondered if more was happening than just blinking. So they tested the brain (大脑) activity of the penguins and recorded the birds on video. The study showed that the tired parents were actually sleeping very often and for very short time periods! Each sleep lasts only about four seconds. By taking over 10,000 microsleeps a day, the penguins get a total of about 1l hours of sleep a day. How amazing! It’s not clear if the microsleeps help the penguins feel truly rested, or if they’re just enough to keep them going. The scientists don’t know if the penguins sleep this way at other times of the year, or only when they’re raising their young. They also don’t know if other kinds of penguins have similar sleeping habits, Further research is needed to learn more about these flightless birds. 26. What does the passage tell us about chinstrap penguins? A. Their living environment. B. Their sleeping habits. C. Their eating habits. D. Their future life. 27. How long do chinstrap penguins sleep a day by using microsleeps? A. Four 4 seconds. B. Over 10,000 seconds. C. About 11 hours. D. About 24 hours. 28. How did the scientists do the study? A. By drawing the tired parents’ notice. B. By showing dangers to the penguins. C. By recording sleeping habits of all kinds of penguins. D. By testing chinstrap penguins’ brain activity and recording videos. 29. What can we learn from the passage? A. Raising young penguins is a challenging task B. All kinds of penguins take microsleeps every day. C. The penguins nearby will help look after chinstrap penguins D. Chinstrap penguin parents don’t work with each other well 五、信息还原(共4小题;每小题 1.5分, 满分6分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项（选项中有两项为多余选项）。 Let’s imagine this: Your parents are not in for a week. You’re left with 800 yuan. ____30____ It would be silly to spend the money at the mall especially if you already have great clothes, right? A smarter way to spend that money would be on key things such as food and daily needs. You’d probably also want to put part of the money aside for emergencies (紧急情况). Well, you just learned how to budget (预算). It’s all about deciding what matters the most to you and how much you want to spend on these things. ____31____ For example, you plan to buy a new bike and think about saving some money. However, your friends invite you to have a trip together. Thinking of the new bike, you might decide not to join them. But having a budget doesn’t mean you can’t have fun, you just have to get creative. Instead of meeting your friends at the pizza shop and then going to the movies, you could invite them to your house. You can buy frozen pizzas at the supermarket and watch a movie online. ____32____ If you search for budget tips, you’ll find many good ones on the Internet. You can try different methods. ____33____ Sometimes you may make mistakes. Don’t worry! It’s part of becoming a wise spender. A. How will you spend the money? B. It’s a lot cheaper but just as fun. C. Where can you have fun with the money? D. This way, you can find a method that works for you. E. If you budget carefully, you may save a lot of money. F. The most important thing is to decide what you really need. 第二卷（共38分） 六、阅读表达(共4小题;前3小题每题2分, 第4小题3分, 满分9分) 阅读下面短文，回答短文后的问题，前3题每题答案不超过10 词，第4题字数不限。 In a village school in Hubei, teachers find that mobile phone addiction (瘾) has become a new problem among teenagers. Their students play games on mobile phones after returning home, and some of them don’t complete homework. When they’re in class, they still think about their games. Pan Jiani, 11, likes watching funny short videos on the phone. Her parents are working in the city. Now she lives with her grandparents. “If she stays with us, the time of playing on her mobile phone can be limited. If we’re not around, she sometimes plays for a long time,” said her grandpa. According to the teachers, boys prefer to play games. Pan Longye, 11, likes watching cartoons and playing games on the phone. His mother said, “Sometimes I give the mobile phone to him, and then I’m so busy that I forget it. In this situation, he plays for two or three hours.” Research shows that when it comes to playing on mobile phones, the city children can be controlled by their parents, while the village children can hardly be controlled by their grandparents. How can families and society help solve this problem? Since most left-behind children (留守儿童) live with their grandparents, it’s necessary for the elderly people to organize activities for children after school, like doing some housework and farm work, The Internet should also provide left-behind children with interesting learning resources, which can draw their attention and help them avoid harmful information online. 34. What’s the new problem among teenagers in the village school? _______________________________________________________________________________ 35.
