Riya and Sheetal did everything together. They were best friends. Most of the time. Sometimes, though, when Sheetal was with other friends, she ignored Riya or treated her like a little kid. Today was one of those times. “Sorry. I’m already going to the pool,” Sheetal said. “Tina and Vaidehi and I are going.” She smiled, but it wasn’t her nice smile. She walked away to join Tina and Vaidehi, and Riya was left standing alone. After school, at dance class, Sheetal talked with the other dancers as they stretched (拉伸) in front of the mirror. Riya wanted to join them, but she held back a bit. Then she noticed Zora, the new girl. Riya joined her and began stretching, too. Zora smiled, and Riya smiled back. Riya tried not to check the mirror to see if Sheetal had noticed. I hope she feels left out, Riya thought. The next morning, when Riya boarded the bus, Sheetal was waiting in their usual seat. Sheetal quickly moved her backpack off the seat to make room for Riya. But Riya walked past her and slid into the empty seat next to Zora. How does it feel now? Riya thought. On the bus ride, Riya discovered that Zora was not a quiet girl. She talked a lot-about her little brother, about the tree house her uncle had built, and even about swimming. “I love swimming!” Riya said. “Me, too,” Zora said. “We just joined the YMCA. My dad said he’d take my sister and me tonight.” “It’s awesome there,” Riya said. “Maybe you can come with us tonight,” Zora said. “I’ll ask my dad.” “That would be fun. I’ll ask my mom,” said Riya. When they got off the bus, Sheetal was waiting on the sidewalk. “Did you still want to go swimming tonight?” Sheetal asked Riya. Here’s my chance, Riya thought. “I’m already going together.” She smiled. Somehow she knew it wasn’t her nice smile. Sheetal nodded and looked at her feet. Riya’s face began to burn. Why didn’t she feel happy? It didn’t feel good at all. “Um,” she said instead, “maybe…” 31. What does the underlined “ignored” mean in this story? A. laughed at B. paid no attention to C. cared about D. took notice of 32. How did Riya feel when she held back instead of joining her friend Sheetal at dance class? A. A bit angry. B. A bit nervous. C. A little shy. D. A little ashamed. 33. What did Riya want to say in the end? A. Maybe you could go with others, Sheetal. B. Maybe you could go with your sister, Zora. C. Maybe we could go all together, Sheetal. D. Maybe we could go with your sister, Zora. 【答案】31. B 32. A 33. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了Riya和好朋友Sheetal两人之间产生矛盾就重归于好的故事。 【31题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“Sometimes, though, when Sheetal was with other friends, she ignored Riya or treated her like a little kid.”可知，有时候当Sheetal和其他朋友在一起时，她会忽略Riya，或者把她当成小孩子。因此划线单词的意思是“忽视，没有注意到”。故选B。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据“After school, at dance class, Sheetal talked with the other dancers as they stretched (拉伸) in front of the mirror. Riya wanted to join them, but she held back a bit.”以及上文可知，她觉得自己被忽略后，感到有点生气，所以没有加入到Sheetal。故选A。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据“‘Did you still want to go swimming tonight?’ Sheetal asked Riya.”以及“I’m already going together.”可知，Riya想和她一起去，因此可能最后她会说：也许我们可以一起去，Sheetal。故选C。 D In the story Snow White, the jealous queen decides to kill Snow White once and for all with an apple dipped in deadly poison (毒). Thanks to seven helpful dwarfs and a handsome prince, Snow White recovery one lives happily ever after. But the queen didn’t need to go to all that trouble. In fact, apples-along with many common fruits we eat-are already poisonous! But don’t worry. The yummy fleshy part won’t harm you. It’s only the seeds you need to avoid. Apple trees belong to a plant family called Prunus. This group also includes peaches, plums and cherries. The seeds of all these fruits carry a chemical called amygdalin. Inside an animal’s stomach, amygdalin turns into a strong poison called cyanide (氰化物). And cyanide can make people and animals very sick, or even kill them. Still, don’t worry if you get down a few apple seeds by chance. Each seed has only a very tiny amount (数量) of poison. You’d have to eat a large bowlful of seeds to feel any influence. And you’ d need to chew (咀嚼) them well-the hard, shiny coating of apple seeds keeps the poison locked inside. Unchewed seeds usually pass right through and come out whole in your poop. But cows and other animals often chew up seeds along with the fruit, so they can get sick from eating apples and plums that fall to the ground. Why would a tree make poisoned seeds? ________! Amygdalin tastes terrible. It’s also found in leaves and other parts of fruit trees. If a deer or cow eats apple leaves, it experiences a nasty taste and an upset stomach so animals soon learn to leave those trees alone. Thanks, amygdalin! Want proof? If you bite into an apple seed, you’ll notice an awful taste. That’s the amygdalin. The apple tree doesn’t want you to chew up its seeds. It wants you to spit them out, so they can grow into new trees. Go right ahead! Mirror mirror, on the wall, who’s the cleverest fruit of all? 34. What happens when amygdalin is inside an animal’s stomach? A. It produces a strong poison. B. It turns into awful apple juice. C. It harms the fleshy part of apples. D. It saves the animal from illness and death. 35. The writer suggests it’s safe to accidentally get down a few apple seeds because ________. ①the amount of poison in each seed is very small ②the poison in the seeds is harmless to human beings ③the influence of the poison is weak if you eat only a few seeds ④the hard coating of the seeds can keep the poison locked inside A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④ 36. Which of the following would be most suitable for ________? A. To ensure the seeds grow faster B. To produce a sweet taste in the fruit C. To make the seeds more attractive to eat D. To prevent animals from eating the seeds 37. In writing this article, the writer wants to ________. A. introduce readers the cleverest fruit of all B. advise readers not to eat too many apples C. encourage readers to reread of Snow White D. tell readers of the poisonous nature of apple seeds 【答案】34. A 35. C 36. D 37. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了苹果中有害的化学物质。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Inside an animal’s stomach, amygdalin turns into a strong poison called cyanide (氰化物).”可知，当杏仁苷进入动物胃内时会产生剧毒。故选A。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Each seed has only a very tiny amount (数量) of poison. You’d have to eat a large bowlful of seeds to feel any influence. And you’ d need to chew (咀嚼) them well-the hard, shiny coating of apple seeds keeps the poison locked inside.”可知，作者建议，不小心摘下一些苹果籽是安全的，因为每颗种子只有极少量的毒素，你必须吃一大碗种子才能感受到任何影响，坚硬闪亮的苹果籽涂层可以把毒素锁在里面。故选C。 【36题详解】 推理判断题。根据“If a deer or cow eats apple leaves, it experiences a nasty taste and an upset stomach so animals soon learn to leave those trees alone.”可知，此处提到了动物吃到苹果叶会感到不适，故选项D“防止动物吃种子”符合语境。故选D。 【37题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“In fact, apples-along with many common fruits we eat-are already poisonous! But don’t worry. The yummy fleshy part won’t harm you.

The girl learned the lesson from her own ________ (person) experience. 【答案】personal 【解析】 【详解】句意：这个女孩从她自己的个人经验中吸取了教训。根据空后的名词experience可知，空处用形容词作定语，名词person的形容词是personal“个人的”。故填personal。 45.

Jenny ________ (choose) flowers for her wedding now. Come and see if they are fantastic. 【答案】is choosing 【解析】 【详解】句意：Jenny正在为她的婚礼选花。来看看它们是否很棒。根据now可知，时态为现在进行时，结构为：be+doing+其他。主语Jenny为单数，be动词用is，choose的现在分词为choosing。故填is choosing。 51. She ________ (reply) to your email as soon as she reaches her office. Don’t worry. 【答案】will reply 【解析】 【详解】句意：她一到办公室就会回复你的电子邮件。别担心。as soon as引导的时间状语从句时态为主将从现，此句从句是一般现在时，可知主句用一般将来时，故填will reply。 52. —I said hello to him yesterday, but he even didn’t look at me. —Oh, maybe he ________ (work) on something important and took no notice. 【答案】was working 【解析】 【详解】句意：——昨天我对他打招呼，但是他甚至都没看我。 ——哦，也许他正在忙一些重要的事情，没空搭理。根据yesterday可知，时态为一般过去时，根据“on something important and took no notice.”可知，他没空搭理是因为他正在忙一些重要的事情，应该用进行时，be doing sth.正在做某事，主语是he，be动词用was，work的ing形式是working。故填was working。 53. Liu Hao never ________ (fail) to impress us. An engineer can never have too many skills. 【答案】fails 【解析】 【详解】句意：刘浩总能给我们留下深刻印象。一个工程师有再多的技能也不为过。根据句中“never”可知，时态为一般现在时，结合所给词，fail“未能”，动词原形，又根据该句主语是Liu Hao，所以此处谓语动词用第三人称单数fails。故填fails。 54. The boy was forced ________ (leave) his home, but luckily survived the war with his friends. 【答案】to leave 【解析】 【详解】句意：这个男孩被迫离开了家，但幸运的是在与朋友的战争中幸存了下来。leave“离开”，根据句子“The boy was forced…his home, but luckily survived the war with his friends.”可知，此处考查be forced to do sth“被迫做某事”符合语境，所以此处应该填入不定式to leave，作宾语。故填to leave。 55. —When can I get my car back? —Not until it ________(repair) next Monday. 【答案】is repaired 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我什么时候能取回我的车？ ——要到下周一它被修好才能取回。根据空前的“until”可知，本句是until引导的时间状语从句，其中从句主语it指代car，car（车）是被修理的对象，所以要用被动语态，即be + 过去分词的形式。根据主将从现的原则，主句是一般将来时的否定形式（这里是用Not until来体现将来的动作关系），从句要用一般现在时表将来，it是第三人称单数，be动词用is，repair的过去分词是repaired，所以填is repaired。故填is repaired。 56. Neither my parents nor my sister ________ (play) such exciting games before. 【答案】has played 【解析】 【详解】句意：我父母和我姐姐以前都没有玩过这么刺激的游戏。根据“before”可知，此处用现在完成时，谓语动词构成是have/has done，neither…nor“既不……也不”，连接并列主语，谓语动词采用就近原则，离谓语最近的主语my sister是单数，故谓语动词用单数第三人称形式has。故填has played。 57. —You have done the work well! —It’s kind of you to say so. It seems much easier than I ________ (think). 【答案】thought 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你工作做得很好！——你这么说真是太好了。这似乎比我想象的要容易得多。此处表示的是过去的想法，应该用动词过去式，think的过去式为thought。故填thought。 七、阅读表达 阅读下面短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题，并将答案写在答题卡对应题号的横线上。每小题答案不超过10个单词。 Sherlock Holmes was an INTP. Ernest Hemingway was an ESTP. Michael Jackson was an ISFP … What do these four-lettered words mean? Well, if you have heard of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), you might know them. With 93 questions, the test groups all of the different people in the world into 16 personality tests in the world, but the MBTI is perhaps the most popular one. More than 1.5 million people take it every year. However, the MBTI is not an accurate (精准的) way to discover something as changeable as a person’s personality. Neither of its creators, Katharine Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs-Myers, was a trained psychologist (心理学家). What’s more, the two were unable to scientifically prove their findings. Then how has this test managed to become so popular? To answer this question, we need to find out what drove Briggs and Briggs-Myers to create it. Briggs was a mother. After reading Carl Jung’s Psychological Types, she decided to create a tool to help parents understand their children’s interests. Briggs-Myers continued to work on the MBTI in the 1940s. Traditional personality tests would divide people into two simple groups: those who were good and those who were bad. The woman wanted everyone to be able to understand her test, while people may be different from one another, they are all created equal. This perhaps holds the key to the MBTI’s success: The test never paints a personality in any negative light(负面的眼光). The MBTI may not be the best way for assessing one’s personality, but this doesn’t mean it’s totally useless. Many people are hungry for self- knowledge. The MBTI just offers that knowledge in a painless way. 58. Why does the writer mention the three famous people at the beginning of the passage? ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 59. According to the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, how many personality types are there in the world? ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 60. What was the relationship between the two creators of the MBTI? ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 61. What made Katharine Briggs decide to create the MBTI? ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 62. Do you want to take or learn more about the MBTI? Why or why not? ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】58. To introduce (a personality test—) the MBTI. 59. Sixteen. /16. 60. (They were) mother and daughter. 61. To help parents understand their children’s interest. 62. Yes, I do. I think it’s fun./ No, I don’t. I think it’s meaningless.（答案言之有理即可） 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了性格测试MBTI的创建由来及受欢迎的原因。 【58题详解】 根据“What do these four-lettered words mean? Well, if you have heard of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), you might know them.”可知，作者在文章开头提到这三位名人是为了介绍性格测试——MBTI。故填To introduce (a personality test—) the MBTI. 【59题详解】 根据“With 93 questions, the test groups all of the different people in the world into 16 personality tests in the world”可知，根据Myers-Briggs类型指标，世界上有16种人格类型。故填Sixteen. /16. 【60题详解】 根据“Neither of its creators, Katharine Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs-Myers, was a trained psychologist (心理学家).”可知，MBTI的两位创建者之间是母女关系。故填(They were) mother and daughter. 【61题详解】 根据“she decided to create a tool to help parents understand their children’s interests.”可知，Katharine Briggs决定创建MBTI是为了帮助父母了解孩子的兴趣。故填To help parents understand their children’s interest. 【62题详解】 开放性试题，答案不唯一，合理即可。参考答案为：Yes, I do. I think it’s fun./ No, I don’t. I think it’s meaningless. 八、书面表达（本大题共20分） 63. 照片是时光的标本，记录着成长的片段（运动场上的欢呼、同学间的友谊、家人的陪伴等）。学校公众号“英语专栏”正在征稿，本期主题为“分享你的照片”。假设你是李华，请以“A Valuable Photo”为题，写一篇英语短文，描写当时的场景，讲述背后的故事，表达自己的情感。 A Valuable Photo This is a valuable photo to me.

I think I have good skills to be a hotel receptionist. I could talk to new people easily and I could speak three foreign languages-Chinese, Spanish and Arabic. I can’t work along hours but I want to learn this. I have a lot of experience. When I was younger, I worked in a restaurant. Thanks, Laura 25. This is ________.

B Advice from the Kid Expert Offering solutions to life’s little problems Too small? No such thing! Size has some advantages but the sport is about much more than that. Basketball requires lots of skills, such as shooting, passing and speed. Many NBA players shorter than six feet tall have had successful careers. Find a coach or gym teacher who is willing to offer training courses to improve your skills. Practice it over and over, and ask for tips on how to improve it. Ooh, lots! What kind of things do you enjoy the most? Make a “fun-tivities’ list for when you are stuck for ideas.Don’t know what you like? A trip to the library may help. A librarian can show you lots of hobby and activity materials. Your mom may have suggestions for you, too, since she knows you so well. It sure can be hard to focus your attention at times - especially if a lot is going on around you. Try to find a quiet place to work. If noises distract you, ask a parent if noise-canceling headphones might help. Set a timer for 15 minutes. See what you can get done in that time period. When it sounds, stand up and walk around for a few minutes. Then reset the timer and continue. ADVICE FROM YOU ________ What can I do? Aurora Remember: we don’t need to read every word. Instead we look for the key information such as names and numbers. Will I was once afraid of meeting long words. Just relax. We may guess the meaning by its formation. Believe in me! It’s useful. Kaden 28. The reading material is most probably a page from ________. A. a magazine for children B. a magazine for parents C a picture book for children D. a picture book for parents 29.

I want to improve my reading skills C “Want to go to the pool tomorrow?” Riya asked Sheetal during break. Riya and Sheetal did everything together. They were best friends. Most of the time. Sometimes, though, when Sheetal was with other friends, she ignored Riya or treated her like a little kid. Today was one of those times. “Sorry. I’m already going to the pool,” Sheetal said. “Tina and Vaidehi and I are going.” She smiled, but it wasn’t her nice smile. She walked away to join Tina and Vaidehi, and Riya was left standing alone. After school, at dance class, Sheetal talked with the other dancers as they stretched (拉伸) in front of the mirror. Riya wanted to join them, but she held back a bit. Then she noticed Zora, the new girl. Riya joined her and began stretching, too. Zora smiled, and Riya smiled back. Riya tried not to check the mirror to see if Sheetal had noticed. I hope she feels left out, Riya thought. The next morning, when Riya boarded the bus, Sheetal was waiting in their usual seat. Sheetal quickly moved her backpack off the seat to make room for Riya. But Riya walked past her and slid into the empty seat next to Zora. How does it feel now? Riya thought. On the bus ride, Riya discovered that Zora was not a quiet girl. She talked a lot-about her little brother, about the tree house her uncle had built, and even about swimming. “I love swimming!” Riya said. “Me, too,” Zora said. “We just joined the YMCA. My dad said he’d take my sister and me tonight.” “It’s awesome there,” Riya said. “Maybe you can come with us tonight,” Zora said. “I’ll ask my dad.” “That would be fun. I’ll ask my mom,” said Riya. When they got off the bus, Sheetal was waiting on the sidewalk. “Did you still want to go swimming tonight?” Sheetal asked Riya. Here’s my chance, Riya thought. “I’m already going together.” She smiled. Somehow she knew it wasn’t her nice smile. Sheetal nodded and looked at her feet. Riya’s face began to burn. Why didn’t she feel happy? It didn’t feel good at all. “Um,” she said instead, “maybe…” 31 What does the underlined “ignored” mean in this story? A. laughed at B. paid no attention to C. cared about D. took notice of 32. How did Riya feel when she held back instead of joining her friend Sheetal at dance class? A. A bit angry. B. A bit nervous. C. A little shy. D. A little ashamed. 33. What did Riya want to say in the end? A. Maybe you could go with others, Sheetal. B. Maybe you could go with your sister, Zora. C. Maybe we could go all together, Sheetal. D. Maybe we could go with your sister, Zora. D In the story Snow White, the jealous queen decides to kill Snow White once and for all with an apple dipped in deadly poison (毒). Thanks to seven helpful dwarfs and a handsome prince, Snow White recovery one lives happily ever after. But the queen didn’t need to go to all that trouble. In fact, apples-along with many common fruits we eat-are already poisonous! But don’t worry. The yummy fleshy part won’t harm you. It’s only the seeds you need to avoid. Apple trees belong to a plant family called Prunus. This group also includes peaches, plums and cherries. The seeds of all these fruits carry a chemical called amygdalin. Inside an animal’s stomach, amygdalin turns into a strong poison called cyanide (氰化物). And cyanide can make people and animals very sick, or even kill them. Still, don’t worry if you get down a few apple seeds by chance. Each seed has only a very tiny amount (数量) of poison. You’d have to eat a large bowlful of seeds to feel any influence. And you’ d need to chew (咀嚼) them well-the hard, shiny coating of apple seeds keeps the poison locked inside. Unchewed seeds usually pass right through and come out whole in your poop. But cows and other animals often chew up seeds along with the fruit, so they can get sick from eating apples and plums that fall to the ground. Why would a tree make poisoned seeds? ________! Amygdalin tastes terrible. It’s also found in leaves and other parts of fruit trees. If a deer or cow eats apple leaves, it experiences a nasty taste and an upset stomach so animals soon learn to leave those trees alone. Thanks, amygdalin! Want proof? If you bite into an apple seed, you’ll notice an awful taste. That’s the amygdalin. The apple tree doesn’t want you to chew up its seeds. It wants you to spit them out, so they can grow into new trees. Go right ahead! Mirror mirror, on the wall, who’s the cleverest fruit of all? 34.

Michael Jackson was an ISFP … What do these four-lettered words mean? Well, if you have heard of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), you might know them. With 93 questions, the test groups all of the different people in the world into 16 personality tests in the world, but the MBTI is perhaps the most popular one. More than 1.5 million people take it every year. However, the MBTI is not an accurate (精准的) way to discover something as changeable as a person’s personality. Neither of its creators, Katharine Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs-Myers, was a trained psychologist (心理学家). What’s more, the two were unable to scientifically prove their findings. Then how has this test managed to become so popular? To answer this question, we need to find out what drove Briggs and Briggs-Myers to create it. Briggs was a mother. After reading Carl Jung’s Psychological Types, she decided to create a tool to help parents understand their children’s interests. Briggs-Myers continued to work on the MBTI in the 1940s. Traditional personality tests would divide people into two simple groups: those who were good and those who were bad. The woman wanted everyone to be able to understand her test, while people may be different from one another, they are all created equal. This perhaps holds the key to the MBTI’s success: The test never paints a personality in any negative light(负面的眼光). The MBTI may not be the best way for assessing one’s personality, but this doesn’t mean it’s totally useless. Many people are hungry for self- knowledge. The MBTI just offers that knowledge in a painless way. 58 Why does the writer mention the three famous people at the beginning of the passage? ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 59.
