However, the moment that really touched my heart appeared in a village deep in the mountain. I was asking a poor woman villager some questions for an article. Through hard work, she learned to read and write and became the leader of the village. Learning about her story, Brian was as touched as I was by this woman’s experiences. His eyes were wet. I believed he learned a lot from the trip. 二、单项选择（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 21. To engineers, a miss is ________ a mile.

Can we cut it?” The father cut the string. The kite started to go higher. This made the little boy happy. But then, slowly, the kite started to come down. And finally it fell to the ground. The son was surprised to see this. He asked his father, “I thought that after cutting the string, the kite would fly higher. Why did it fall down?” The father explained, “The string was not stopping the kite from going higher, but was helping it stay in the sky. You helped the kite go up in the right direction using the string.

However, many people cannot get rid of (摆脱) mobile phones because phones have become part of daily life. As the addiction to the smartphone has become a serious problem, it causes many problems in life. Most phone users look down at their phones for a long time. When hunching (弓背) or bending their neck, they put serious pressure on the neck and backbone. And this will cause a sore back or a neck ache. According to studies, as high as about 50% of the young people from age 16 to 24 these days suffer back pain because of the heavy usage of smartphones. Also, trying to focus on and look at the screen of the phone for a long time will discomfort eyes and may cause loss of vision (视力). Besides, if someone brings the phone to sleep with, he or she will unconsciously (无意地) spend more time on the phone than sleep. It’s true that phones make life more convenient, but that doesn’t mean they can take control of life. To get rid of phones, you can create a phone-free time. For example, turn off your phone or stop it from the Internet after 8 p. m. At that time, you can spend time on anything but phone so that you won’t check on your phone. Just like smoking, phone addiction is a habit. You must replace the habit with another if you want to change it. So find a few things to do whenever you are not using your phone, such as reading a book or exercising. Of course, it’s not easy to get rid of a habit and the beginning is the most challenging. That’s why having a strong idea really makes a big difference. Remember, do not let your phone become your master and you become its servant (仆人). 52. Which one can show the number of the young people aged 16-24 who have a sore back? ( stand for the number) A. B. C. D. 53. What does the underlined word “addiction” probably mean in Paragraph 2? A. 厌恶 B. 好奇 C. 逃避 D. 上瘾 54. How does the writer explain the ways to get rid of phone addiction? A. By telling a story. B. By giving an example. C. By comparing two facts. D. By listing some numbers. 55. What’s the purpose of the passage? A. The writer wants to tell students not to use cell phones. B. The writer wants to tell us the importance of smart phones. C. The writer wants phone-users not to be controlled by phones. D. The writer wants to tell us the bad effects caused by game addiction. 【答案】52. C 53. D 54. B 55. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了手机上瘾已经给我们的生活带来了很多不好的影响，并介绍一些方法去如何克服这种坏习惯。并警告我们不能让自己成为手机的奴隶。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据“According to studies, as high as about 50% of the young people from age 16 to 24 these days suffer back pain because of the heavy usage of smartphones.”可知，50%的年轻人 (年龄段从16到24) 有着背痛。故选C。 【53题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文的“it causes many problems in life”可知，智能手机导致了很多生活上的问题，说明很多人对智能手机有“上瘾”行为。故划线词意思是“上瘾”。故选D。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据“To get rid of phones, you can create a phone-free time. For example, turn off your phone or stop it from the Internet after 8 p.m.”可知，作者通过举例子的方式来说明如何摆脱手机上瘾。故选B。 【55题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文和“Remember, do not let your phone become your master and you become its servant (仆人).”可知，作者通过这篇文章是为了告诉手机使用者要好好地使用手机，不要成为手机的奴隶。故选C。 D When Scrooge woke up, it was very dark. A clock struck twelve! Scrooge suddenly remembered, “Another ghost is coming at one o’clock.” He decided to lie awake until after one o’clock. He waited and waited until at last he heard the clock strike One. At that moment, a light flashed in the room. And the curtains round his bed flew open. Scrooge, sat up, and found himself face to face with a ghost. It was very strange. It was as short as a child but it looked like an old man. Its long hair was white like an old man’s, but there were no wrinkles on its face. It wore a white tunic. And a bright jet of light beamed out from the top of its head. It held a big cap under its arm. “Are you the ghost that Marley told me about?” asked Scrooge. “I am!” “Who are you?” asked Scrooge. “For your welfare!” said the Ghost “Now stand up and walk with me!” When Scrooge saw the Ghost move towards the window, he was frightened. “I’m a mortal (凡人) ”, said Scrooge. “I’ll fall.” The Ghost laid its hand on Scrooge’s heart and said, “You won’t fall.” As it spoke, they passed through the wall. And they stood on a country road. There was no mist or darkness now. It was a clear, cold, winter’s day. And there was snow on the ground. “Good Heavens!” said Scrooge, as he looked about him. “I grew up here, I was a boy here!” They walked along the road. And Scrooge recognized every tree and every gate. Some ponies were trotting towards them with boys on their backs. All these boys were happy and shouting to each other. “They are only shadows”, said the Ghost. “They can’t see us.” Scrooge knew all the boys. But why was he so happy to see them? Why was he happy when they called Merry Christmas to each other? What was Merry Christmas to Scrooge? “What good has it ever done me?” he asked himself. “The school is not quite empty,” said the Ghost. “One child is still there.” “I know,” said Scrooge with a tear in his eye.

Even now, Chinese people like to refer to ourselves as Chizi, meaning the red descendant (子孙). Red represents the motherland and authority. Official uniforms of the Tang Dynasty were red. In the Qing Dynasty, red was used on official caps to show different rankings. As we know, the Five-starred Red Flag was first raised on October 1st, 1949. Even nowadays, headlines of official documents (官方文件) are painted red. This is why they are called red-head documents. For ordinary people, red stands for happiness. For example, the word “double happiness” used for weddings is red. The bride (新娘) wears red clothes which are different from the white gowns of the west. During the Chinese Spring Festival, people will give red packets with money inside to the children as good wishes. Couplets (对联) hanging on both sides of the doors are written in red. The word red equals prettiness. The expression “hongyan” meaning red colour is a synonym of a beautiful girl. Red is also one of the most popular words used in the names of Chinese women. But in traffic lights red means stop driving. This is how the westerners like to use the red colour. It is because red is very bright, and is good for warning purposes. But it doesn’t really have any negative meanings. 84. What does Chizi mean? __________________________________________ 85. Why are official documents called red-head documents? __________________________________________ 86. What colour do you like best besides (除了) red? Why? __________________________________________ 【答案】84. The red descendant. 85. Because headlines of official documents are painted red. 86. I like white best. Because it is the color of purity.（开放性作答，结合实际，言之有理即可。） 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了红色在中国文化中的重要性和象征意义，以及中国人如何在日常生活和习俗中使用红色。 【84题详解】 根据“Even now, Chinese people like to refer to ourselves as Chizi, meaning the red descendant (子孙).”可知，“赤子”的意思是红色的后代。 故填The red descendant. 【85题详解】 根据“Even nowadays, headlines of official documents (官方文件) are painted red. This is why they are called red-head documents.”可知，官方文件被称为红头文件是因为它们的标题是红色的。 故填Because headlines of official documents are painted red. 【86题详解】 该题为开放性问题，答案不唯一，考生可以根据个人喜好作答。参考答案：I like white best. Because it is the color of purity. 八、书面表达（满分15分） 87. 在你的成长过程中，有些人会给你的一生带来很大的影响。Teenage Daily报刊正在举办写作大赛，请参赛的你根据表格中的提示，向读者介绍你的叔叔，具体要求如下： 年龄 50几岁 职业 一名工人，在一家当地工厂工作几年了 性格、品质 有创造力，总能想出新主意； 乐于助人（举一例）； 对自己严格 兴趣爱好 喜欢蓝色，给身心带来安宁； 在绘画上有天赋，能在工作与爱好间获得平衡 我的感受 充满爱心……（至少一点）；良师益友 要求：1）表达清楚，语法正确，上下文连贯； 2）必须包括表格中所有的相关信息，并适当发挥； 3）词数：90词左右（征文的开头已给出，不计入总词数）； 4）不得使用真实姓名、校名和地名等。 The person who has influenced me most My uncle is the person who has influenced me most. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 The person who has influenced me most My uncle is the person who has influenced me most.

The son was full of joy when he saw the sky filled with colorful kites. He wanted to fly a kite, too. The father then bought a kite for him. The son started to fly the kite. Soon, his kite was high up in the sky. After a while, he said, “Father, it seems that the string (线) is stopping the kite from flying higher. If we cut it, the kite will be free and fly even higher. Can we cut it?” The father cut the string. The kite started to go higher. This made the little boy happy. But then, slowly, the kite started to come down. And finally it fell to the ground. The son was surprised to see this. He asked his father, “I thought that after cutting the string, the kite would fly higher. Why did it fall down?” The father explained, “The string was not stopping the kite from going higher, but was helping it stay in the sky. You helped the kite go up in the right direction using the string. But when you cut the string, it could no longer support the kite.” Sometimes, we may feel like there are certain things that are holding us back and stopping us growing.

However, many people cannot get rid of (摆脱) mobile phones because phones have become part of daily life. As the addiction to the smartphone has become a serious problem, it causes many problems in life. Most phone users look down at their phones for a long time. When hunching (弓背) or bending their neck, they put serious pressure on the neck and backbone. And this will cause a sore back or a neck ache. According to studies, as high as about 50% of the young people from age 16 to 24 these days suffer back pain because of the heavy usage of smartphones. Also, trying to focus on and look at the screen of the phone for a long time will discomfort eyes and may cause loss of vision (视力). Besides, if someone brings the phone to sleep with, he or she will unconsciously (无意地) spend more time on the phone than sleep. It’s true that phones make life more convenient, but that doesn’t mean they can take control of life. To get rid of phones, you can create a phone-free time. For example, turn off your phone or stop it from the Internet after 8 p. m. At that time, you can spend time on anything but phone so that you won’t check on your phone. Just like smoking, phone addiction is a habit. You must replace the habit with another if you want to change it. So find a few things to do whenever you are not using your phone, such as reading a book or exercising. Of course, it’s not easy to get rid of a habit and the beginning is the most challenging. That’s why having a strong idea really makes a big difference. Remember, do not let your phone become your master and you become its servant (仆人). 52. Which one can show the number of the young people aged 16-24 who have a sore back? ( stand for the number) A. B. C. D. 53. What does the underlined word “addiction” probably mean in Paragraph 2? A. 厌恶 B. 好奇 C. 逃避 D. 上瘾 54. How does the writer explain the ways to get rid of phone addiction? A By telling a story. B. By giving an example. C. By comparing two facts. D. By listing some numbers. 55. What’s the purpose of the passage? A. The writer wants to tell students not to use cell phones. B. The writer wants to tell us the importance of smart phones. C. The writer wants phone-users not to be controlled by phones. D. The writer wants to tell us the bad effects caused by game addiction. D When Scrooge woke up, it was very dark. A clock struck twelve! Scrooge suddenly remembered, “Another ghost is coming at one o’clock.” He decided to lie awake until after one o’clock. He waited and waited until at last he heard the clock strike One. At that moment, a light flashed in the room. And the curtains round his bed flew open. Scrooge, sat up, and found himself face to face with a ghost. It was very strange. It was as short as a child but it looked like an old man. Its long hair was white like an old man’s, but there were no wrinkles on its face. It wore a white tunic. And a bright jet of light beamed out from the top of its head. It held a big cap under its arm. “Are you the ghost that Marley told me about?” asked Scrooge. “I am!” “Who are you?” asked Scrooge. “For your welfare!” said the Ghost. “Now stand up and walk with me!” When Scrooge saw the Ghost move towards the window, he was frightened. “I’m a mortal (凡人) ”, said Scrooge. “I’ll fall.” The Ghost laid its hand on Scrooge’s heart and said, “You won’t fall.” As it spoke, they passed through the wall. And they stood on a country road. There was no mist or darkness now. It was a clear, cold, winter’s day. And there was snow on the ground. “Good Heavens!” said Scrooge, as he looked about him. “I grew up here, I was a boy here!” They walked along the road. And Scrooge recognized every tree and every gate. Some ponies were trotting towards them with boys on their backs. All these boys were happy and shouting to each other. “They are only shadows”, said the Ghost. “They can’t see us.” Scrooge knew all the boys. But why was he so happy to see them? Why was he happy when they called Merry Christmas to each other? What was Merry Christmas to Scrooge? “What good has it ever done me?” he asked himself. “The school is not quite empty,” said the Ghost. “One child is still there.” “I know,” said Scrooge with a tear in his eye. They soon came to a large, red-brick building. They entered the gloomy hall and walked to a door at the back of the building. It opened before them, and they saw a long, empty classroom. At one of the desks a lonely boy was reading a book, Scrooge sat down on a bench and wept when he saw himself. “I wish,” Scrooge muttered, after drying his eyes with his sleeve, “but it’s too late now.” “What’s the matter?” asked the Ghost. “Nothing.” said Scrooge. “There was a boy singing a Christmas carol at my door last night. I would like to give him some money. That’s all.” The Ghost smiled thoughtfully, and said. “Let’s see another Christmas!” 56. Scrooge stays awake at night because ________.

Even now, Chinese people like to refer to ourselves as Chizi, meaning the red descendant (子孙). Red represents the motherland and authority. Official uniforms of the Tang Dynasty were red. In the Qing Dynasty, red was used on official caps to show different rankings. As we know, the Five-starred Red Flag was first raised on October 1st, 1949. Even nowadays, headlines of official documents (官方文件) are painted red. This is why they are called red-head documents. For ordinary people, red stands for happiness. For example, the word “double happiness” used for weddings is red. The bride (新娘) wears red clothes which are different from the white gowns of the west. During the Chinese Spring Festival, people will give red packets with money inside to the children as good wishes. Couplets (对联) hanging on both sides of the doors are written in red. The word red equals prettiness. The expression “hongyan” meaning red colour is a synonym of a beautiful girl. Red is also one of the most popular words used in the names of Chinese women. But in traffic lights red means stop driving. This is how the westerners like to use the red colour. It is because red is very bright, and is good for warning purposes. But it doesn’t really have any negative meanings. 84. What does Chizi mean? __________________________________________ 85. Why are official documents called red-head documents? __________________________________________ 86. What colour do you like best besides (除了) red? Why? __________________________________________ 八、书面表达（满分15分） 87. 在你的成长过程中，有些人会给你的一生带来很大的影响。Teenage Daily报刊正在举办写作大赛，请参赛的你根据表格中的提示，向读者介绍你的叔叔，具体要求如下： 年龄 50几岁 职业 一名工人，在一家当地工厂工作几年了 性格、品质 有创造力，总能想出新主意； 乐于助人（举一例）； 对自己严格 兴趣爱好 喜欢蓝色，给身心带来安宁； 在绘画上有天赋，能在工作与爱好间获得平衡 我的感受 充满爱心……（至少一点）；良师益友 要求：1）表达清楚，语法正确，上下文连贯； 2）必须包括表格中所有的相关信息，并适当发挥； 3）词数：90词左右（征文的开头已给出，不计入总词数）； 4）不得使用真实姓名、校名和地名等。 The person who has influenced me most My uncle is the person who has influenced me most. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
