When it comes to beaches, there are some excellent options to be found across the continent. Sancho Beach This beach is an amazing stretch of sand with peaceful waters. The clear waters are perfect for swimming but it is difficult to access. It can only be reached by boat or by climbing down the rocky hillsides on each end, so it isn’t particularly good for younger children or people who are physically challenged. Vichayito Beach Just a short distance from the waterfront town of Mancora, this lovely beach is often quiet and peaceful, offering some nice shallow water to swim in for little ones. A little further out, the waves pick up, making for fine surfing and windsurfing surroundings, while the charming village offers nice accommodation. Copacabana Beach The cold water here means it isn’t an ideal swimming location, but there are good spots for surfing and windsurfing. Various water activities make it a great beach. Visit early, especially in the busy tourist seasons, not only to avoid crowds, but also to gain admittance — visitors will be turned away once the park reaches peak capacity. Jericoacoara Beach Located near the city center, this beach is very popular among surfers thanks to its great waves. It isn’t too rough to swim for experienced swimmers, although a slightly rocky seafloor means you should be careful. With large crowds of people, the best time to visit is sunset-arrive early to get a good viewing spot. 1. What may make Sancho Beach difficult to reach? A. The great waves. B. Its unique location. C. Lack of boat services. D. Large crowds of tourists. 2. Which beach is the most ideal place for young children to swim? A. Sancho Beach. B. Vichayito Beach. C. Copacabana Beach. D. Jericoacoara Beach. 3. What do Copacabana Beach and Jericoacoara Beach have in common? A. They both appeal to those loving water sports. B. Tourists may be rejected due to their limited capacity. C. Tourists should arrive early to get a good viewing spot. D. They provide perfect swimming options for professionals. 【答案】1. B 2. B 3. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文，文章主要介绍了美洲大陆的一些海滩。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据Sancho Beach部分中“but it is difficult to access. It can only be reached by boat or by climbing down the rocky hillsides on each end(但它很难进入。它只能乘船或从两端的岩石山坡上爬下来才能到达)”可知，只能乘船或从两端的岩石山坡上爬下来才能进入Sancho海滩，由此推测是因其位置独特而难以进入，故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Vichayito Beach部分中“Just a short distance from the waterfront town of Mancora, this lovely beach is often quiet and peaceful, offering some nice shallow water to swim in for little ones.(距离海滨小镇曼科拉不远，这个可爱的海滩通常是安静祥和的，为孩子们提供了一些漂亮的浅水区)”可知，Vichayito海滩最适合年幼的孩子游泳，故选B。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据Copacabana Beach部分中“but there are good spots for surfing and windsurfing. Various water activities make it a great beach(但有冲浪和帆板运动的好地方。各种水上活动使它成为一个很棒的海滩)”和Jericoacoara Beach部分中“Located near the city center, this beach is very popular among surfers thanks to its great waves.(这个海滩位于市中心附近，因其巨大的海浪而受到冲浪者的欢迎)”可知，两者的共同点是都有水上运动；由此推知，它们对喜欢水上运动的人很有吸引力，故选A。 B Danielle Steel, America’ s sweetheart, is one of the hardest working women in the book business. Unlike other productive (多产的) authors who write one book at a time, she can work on up to five. Her research time before writing takes at least three years. Once she has fully studied her subjects, ready to dive into a book, she can spend twenty hours nonstop at her desk. Danielle Steel comes from New York and was sent to France for her education. After graduation, she worked in the public relations and advertising industries. Later she started a job as a writer which she was best fit for. Her achievements are unbelievable: 390 million copies of books in print, nearly fifty New York Times best-selling novels, and a series of “Max and Martha” picture books for children to help them deal with the real-life problems of death, new babies and new schools. Her 1998 book about the death of her son shot to the top of the New York Times best-selling list as soon as it came out. Twenty-eight of her books have been made into films. She is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for one of her books being the Times best-seller for 381 weeks straight. Not content with a big house, a loving family, and a view of the Golden Gate Bridge, Danielle Steel considers her readers to be the most important resource (资源) and has kept in touch with them by e-mail. While she is often compared to the heroines (女主人公) of her own invention, her life is undoubtedly much quieter. But, if she does have anything in common with them, it is her strength of will and her inimitable (独特的) style. There is only one Danielle Steel. 4. Danielle Steel is different from other writers in that ________. A. she can write several books at the same time B. she often does some research before writing a book C. she is one of the most popular American women writers D. she can keep writing for quite a long time without a break 5. Children who have read “Max and Martha” picture books may know ________. A. how to deal with affairs at school B. what to do when new babies are born into their families C. what to do if Max and Martha die D. how to solve the difficult problems in their writing classes 6. One of Danielle Steel’s achievements is that ________. A. she wrote the Guinness Book of World Records B. her picture books attracted a lot of young men C. some TV plays were based on her books D. one of her books became a best-seller in 1998 7. According to the passage, which sentence is right? A. Danielle Steel writes about quiet women. B. Danielle Steel lives an exciting life. C. Both Danielle Steel and her heroines are unique. D. Danielle Steel is pleased with her achievements. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了美国作家Danielle Steel生平和成就，包括她的高产写作、深入研究和多部畅销书，以及她与读者的密切联系。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“Unlike other productive (多产的) authors who write one book at a time, she can work on up to five. (与其他一次只写一本书的高产作家不同，她最多可以写五本书)”可知，Danielle Steel与众不同之处在于她可以同时写多本书。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“Her achievements are unbelievable: 390 million copies of books in print, nearly fifty New York Times best-selling novels, and a series of “Max and Martha” picture books for children to help them deal with the real-life problems of death, new babies and new schools. (她的成就令人难以置信：出版了3.9亿册图书，近50本《纽约时报》畅销小说，以及一系列“麦克斯和玛莎”图画书，帮助孩子们应对死亡、新生儿和新学校等现实生活中的问题)”可知，看过《麦克斯和玛莎》图画书的孩子可能知道当新生儿出生在他们的家庭时该怎么办。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“Her 1998 book about the death of her son shot to the top of the New York Times best-selling list as soon as it came out. (1998年，她写了一本关于她儿子之死的书，一经出版就登上了《纽约时报》畅销书排行榜的榜首)”可知，她1998年写的书登上了《纽约时报》畅销书排行榜。故选D。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中“While she is often compared to the heroines (女主人公) of her own invention, her life is undoubtedly much quieter. But, if she does have anything in common with them, it is her strength of will and her inimitable (独特的) style. There is only one Danielle Steel. (虽然她经常被拿来与她自己创造的女主人公相比，但她的生活无疑要安静得多。但是，如果说她和他们有什么共同之处的话，那就是她的意志力和她独特的风格。只有一个丹妮尔·斯蒂尔)”可知，Danielle Steel和她的女主角都有独特之处。故选C。 C When it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness, who possess (拥有) wings of their own and who will fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate (照亮) me and train me up for love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share. When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say: “Let’s start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped. When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair (失望) and I was in despair. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other. For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the other’s dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think: “Yes, I must tell...” We have never met. It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist (心理学家), who will only fill up the healing silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend. 8. In the eighth grade, what the author did before developing proper social behavior was to ________ A. become serious about her study B. go to her friend’s house regularly C. share poems and stories with her friend D. learn from her classmates at school 9. In Paragraph 3, “We gave London to each other” probably means “________”. A. we were unwilling to tear ourselves away from London B. our exploration of London was a memorable gift to both of us C. our unpleasant feeling about London disappeared D. we parted with each other in London 10. In the darkest moments, the author would prefer to ________. A. seek professional help B. break the silence C. stay with her best friend D. be left alone 11. What is the best title for the passage? A. Unforgettable Experiences B. Remarkable Imagination C. Great Companions D. Lifelong Friendship 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了作者的三位很棒的朋友，在不同的人生阶段给了作者欣喜、安慰、勇气和力量，陪伴作者成长。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say: “Let’s start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.(当我在八年级的时候，我有一个朋友。当学习可接受的社会行为成为同学们的时尚时，我们很害羞，对学习“太认真”了。我们在学校很少说话，但她会来我家，我们会坐下来拿着铅笔和纸，我们中的一个会说：“让我们从今天的火车汽笛开始。”我们会安静地坐在一起，分别写由火车汽笛声产生的诗歌或故事。然后我们大声朗读。在那个学年结束时，我们也变成了社会生物，故事和诗歌也停止了)”可知，在八年级时，作者会和朋友静静地坐在一起，分享各自的诗或故事，由此可知，在八年级时，作者在培养适当的社会行为之前所做的是与她的朋友分享诗歌和故事。故选C项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. (但我们的友谊是基于我们每个人的想法，如果我们不探索这座伟大的城市，我们以后会后悔的，因为我们当时感觉很糟糕。在接下来的五周里，我们每个星期天都会见面，发现了许多很棒的东西)”可知，我们一起探索伦敦这座伟大的城市，这让我们成为了朋友，也给我们留下了难忘的美好回忆，由此可知，“We gave London to each other”可能意味着“我们对伦敦的探索对我们俩来说都是一份难忘的礼物”。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist (心理学家), who will only fill up the healing silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend. (对我来说，与他们共度一个美好的时光比心理学家的终身服务更有价值，心理学家只会填补那些最黑暗的时刻所需的治愈沉默，在这些时刻，我宁愿做自己最好的朋友)”可知，在那些最黑暗的时刻，作者宁愿做自己最好的朋友，由此可知，在最黑暗的时刻，作者宁愿独自待着。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合最后一段“It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. (这是我想留下的令人感到安慰的伙伴。)”可知，本文作者介绍了三位很棒的朋友，在不同的人生阶段给了作者欣喜、安慰、勇气和力量，陪伴作者成长，“Great Companions”意为“伟大的伙伴”，能够概括文章主要内容。故选C项。 D How can a creature weighing over 5 tons and normally taking 150 kilograms of food and 120 liters of water per day survive in a desert environment? In the southwest African country of Namibia, and the Sahara lands of Mali further north, the desert elephant does just that. Although not regarded as a separate species from the African elephant, the desert cousin differs in many ways. Their bodies are smaller, to absorb less heat, and their feet are larger for easier walking across sandy surfaces. They are taller, to reach higher branches. They have shorter tusks (象牙), and most importantly, longer trunks to dig for water in riverbeds. Desert elephants can travel over 70 kilometers in search for feeding grounds and waterholes, and have a larger group of families. They drink only every 3-4 days, and can store water in a “bag” at the back of their throat, which is only used when badly needed. Desert elephants are careful feeders---they seldom root up trees and break fewer branches, and thus maintain what little food sources are available. Young elephants may even eat the dung (粪便) of the female leader of a group when facing food shortage. During drought they are unlikely to give birth to their young but with good rains the birthrate will increase greatly. Desert elephants have sand baths, sometimes adding their own urine (尿液) to make them muddy! As we continue to overheat our weak planet, it can only be hoped that other animal species will adapt as extraordinarily well to change as the desert elephant. 12. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 means “_____”. A. remains in the African countries B. drinks 120 liters of water a day C. manages to live in desert areas D. eats 150 kilograms of food daily 13. Desert elephants are called careful feeders because they _____. A. rarely ruin trees B. drink only every 3-4 days C. search for food in large groups D. protect food sources for their young 14. The author answers the question raised in the first paragraph with _____. A. stories and explanation B. facts and descriptions C. examples and conclusion D. evidence and argument 15. What can be inferred from the last sentence in the passage? A. Overheating the earth can be stopped. B. Not all animal species are so adaptable. C. The planet will become hotter and hotter. D. Not all animals are as smart as desert elephants. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是沙漠象的生活习性。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。that表示远指，根据第一段的“How can a creature weighing over 5 tons and normally taking 150 kilograms of food and 120 liters of water per day survive in a desert environment?(一个体重超过5吨的生物，每天需要摄入150公斤的食物和120公升的水，如何才能在沙漠环境中生存?)”可知，does just that中的that代指第一段中“survive in a desert environment(在沙漠环境中生存)”，因此划线部分的意思是“设法生活在沙漠地区”，即manages to live in desert areas，故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Desert elephants are careful feeders---they seldom root up trees and break fewer branches, and thus maintain what little food sources are available.(沙漠大象是细心的喂食者——它们很少连根拔起树木，折断的树枝也更少，因此维持着有限的食物来源。)”可知，沙漠象被称为细心的饲养者，因为它们很少破坏树木，故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，本文第一段“How can a creature weighing over 5 tons and normally taking 150 kilograms of food and 120 liters of water per day survive in a desert environment?(一个体重超过5吨的生物，每天需要摄入150公斤的食物和120公升的水，如何才能在沙漠环境中生存?)”提出问题，第二段“In the southwest African country of Namibia, and the Sahara lands of Mali further north, the desert elephant does just that.(在非洲西南部国家纳米比亚，以及更北的马里的撒哈拉沙漠地区，沙漠象正是这样做的。)”举出沙漠象这个物种，根据第三段的“Their bodies are smaller, to absorb less heat, and their feet are larger for easier walking across sandy surfaces. They are taller, to reach higher branches. They have shorter tusks (象牙), and most importantly, longer trunks to dig for water in riverbeds.(他们的身体更小，吸收的热量更少，他们的脚更大，更容易在沙地上行走。它们更高，可以攀到更高的树枝。它们有较短的象牙，最重要的是，它们有较长的树干，可以在河床中挖水。)”可知，第三段和第四段主要描述了沙漠象的生活习性，因此作者用事实和描述回答了第一段中提出的问题。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的“As we continue to overheat our weak planet, it can only be hoped that other animal species will adapt as extraordinarily well to change as the desert elephant.(随着我们继续使我们脆弱的星球过热，我们只能希望其他动物物种能像沙漠象一样非常好地适应变化。)”可推断出其他动物不如沙漠象能适应气候变化，也就是并不是所有的动物物种都有这样的适应性。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The importance of learning outside goes beyond fresh air and fun.

The trail twisted and turned through some incredible small woods. Occasionally they would stop to climb a tree and find a comfortable branch to sit on so they could take a break from riding in the heat. On this particular day, the three kids were settled in one of their preferred trees when Jay spotted something shiny on the ground. “What could that be?” he asked Mike and Tony as he pointed out the object reflecting the sun. They all hopped down from their individual branches and went to take a closer look. What they found was unbelievable. It was a gold money clip ( 夹子) holding five hundred dollars. Mike immediately cried out, “Awesome! We can split up the money, and we will each be much closer to being able to buy the new bikes we want.” “Not so fast,” said Tony. “Jay was the one who spotted the cash. To be fair, he should get more.” “Are you guys crazy?” asked Jay. “We can’t keep the money. It isn’t ours. Aren’t we more mature than to play finders keepers like we did when we were kids?” “Stop being such an advocate for honesty,” complained Mike and Tony. “Let’s all go home and think about this,” said Jay, knowing that he could have made the call because he was the one who spotted the money clip in the first place. Mike and Tony agreed to Jay’s suggestion. Jay kept the money and they all rode their bikes home. They decided to meet up after dinner at the head of the off-road trail. Mike and Tony lived on the same street so they rode home most of the way together. They were able to talk a bit more without Jay’s input. The more they talked, the more they came to see Jay’s point. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 After dinner, as agreed, the three kids met back up. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, Jay received a phone call asking him to go to the police station. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】After dinner, as agreed, the three kids met back up. When Mike and Tony arrived, Jay was already there, holding the money clip. “What do you think now?” he asked them. “You’re right. We can’t keep what doesn’t belong to us,” said Mike. “What about handing the money to the police and they’ll find the owner?” suggested Tony. “Great minds think alike,” Jay said happily. “Let’s go now!” The three kids jumped on their bicycles right away and rode to the police station, where an officer took a careful record about how they found the money clip. He also said that if no one claimed the lost item, it would rightfully be theirs. The next morning, Jay received a phone call asking him to go to the police station. He was a bit nervous, but when he got there, he learned that the money clip had been claimed, and the owner was very thankful to them. Moreover, he wanted to reward the three kids with a gift card from the local bicycle shop for one hundred dollars. Jay couldn’t wait to share the news with Mike and Tony, who were overjoyed that they were helpful for someone and there were even bonus for that. They blushed for their initial reactions to the find and realized that it is far better to be a finder than to be a keeper. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了三个小朋友Jay，Mike和Tony是好朋友，经常一起玩儿，有一天他们发现了一个装有500美元的金钱夹，Mike和Tony觉得应该把钱分了，但是Jay觉得他们不应该留着钱，Jay建议大家回家再想想，决定晚饭后在这条越野小路的尽头碰面。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“晚饭后，按照约定，三个孩子又碰面了。”可知，第一段可描写他们碰面后决定把钱交给警察。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上，杰接到一个电话，要他去警察局。”可知，第二段可描写在警察局发生的事情，失主的感谢，以及三个小朋友的对此事的反应。 2.续写线索：一起做决定——骑车去警局——警察记录——钱被认领——失主答谢——孩子们的反应 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①骑车去……：ride to/cycle to ②回报，奖励：reward/repay ③脸红：blush/flush 情绪类 ①高兴地：happily/rejoicingly ②感激：thankful/grateful 【点睛】[高分句型1] The three kids jumped on their bicycles right away and rode to the police station, where an officer took a careful record about how they found the money clip.

When it comes to beaches, there are some excellent options to be found across the continent. Sancho Beach This beach is an amazing stretch of sand with peaceful waters. The clear waters are perfect for swimming but it is difficult to access. It can only be reached by boat or by climbing down the rocky hillsides on each end, so it isn’t particularly good for younger children or people who are physically challenged. Vichayito Beach Just a short distance from the waterfront town of Mancora, this lovely beach is often quiet and peaceful, offering some nice shallow water to swim in for little ones. A little further out, the waves pick up, making for fine surfing and windsurfing surroundings, while the charming village offers nice accommodation. Copacabana Beach The cold water here means it isn’t an ideal swimming location, but there are good spots for surfing and windsurfing. Various water activities make it a great beach. Visit early, especially in the busy tourist seasons, not only to avoid crowds, but also to gain admittance — visitors will be turned away once the park reaches peak capacity. Jericoacoara Beach Located near the city center, this beach is very popular among surfers thanks to its great waves. It isn’t too rough to swim for experienced swimmers, although a slightly rocky seafloor means you should be careful. With large crowds of people, the best time to visit is sunset-arrive early to get a good viewing spot. 1. What may make Sancho Beach difficult to reach? A. The great waves. B. Its unique location. C. Lack of boat services. D. Large crowds of tourists. 2. Which beach is the most ideal place for young children to swim? A. Sancho Beach. B. Vichayito Beach. C. Copacabana Beach. D. Jericoacoara Beach. 3. What do Copacabana Beach and Jericoacoara Beach have in common? A. They both appeal to those loving water sports. B. Tourists may be rejected due to their limited capacity. C. Tourists should arrive early to get a good viewing spot. D. They provide perfect swimming options for professionals. B Danielle Steel, America’ s sweetheart, is one of the hardest working women in the book business. Unlike other productive (多产的) authors who write one book at a time, she can work on up to five. Her research time before writing takes at least three years. Once she has fully studied her subjects, ready to dive into a book, she can spend twenty hours nonstop at her desk. Danielle Steel comes from New York and was sent to France for her education. After graduation, she worked in the public relations and advertising industries. Later she started a job as a writer which she was best fit for. Her achievements are unbelievable: 390 million copies of books in print, nearly fifty New York Times best-selling novels, and a series of “Max and Martha” picture books for children to help them deal with the real-life problems of death, new babies and new schools. Her 1998 book about the death of her son shot to the top of the New York Times best-selling list as soon as it came out. Twenty-eight of her books have been made into films. She is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for one of her books being the Times best-seller for 381 weeks straight. Not content with a big house, a loving family, and a view of the Golden Gate Bridge, Danielle Steel considers her readers to be the most important resource (资源) and has kept in touch with them by e-mail. While she is often compared to the heroines (女主人公) of her own invention, her life is undoubtedly much quieter. But, if she does have anything in common with them, it is her strength of will and her inimitable (独特的) style. There is only one Danielle Steel. 4. Danielle Steel is different from other writers in that ________. A. she can write several books at the same time B. she often does some research before writing a book C. she is one of the most popular American women writers D. she can keep writing for quite a long time without a break 5. Children who have read “Max and Martha” picture books may know ________. A. how to deal with affairs at school B what to do when new babies are born into their families C. what to do if Max and Martha die D. how to solve the difficult problems in their writing classes 6. One of Danielle Steel’s achievements is that ________. A. she wrote the Guinness Book of World Records B. her picture books attracted a lot of young men C. some TV plays were based on her books D. one of her books became a best-seller in 1998 7. According to the passage, which sentence is right? A. Danielle Steel writes about quiet women. B. Danielle Steel lives an exciting life. C. Both Danielle Steel and her heroines are unique. D. Danielle Steel is pleased with her achievements. C When it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness, who possess (拥有) wings of their own and who will fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate (照亮) me and train me up for love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share. When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say: “Let’s start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped. When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair (失望) and I was in despair. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other. For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the other’s dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think: “Yes, I must tell...” We have never met. It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist (心理学家), who will only fill up the healing silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend. 8. In the eighth grade, what the author did before developing proper social behavior was to ________ A. become serious about her study B. go to her friend’s house regularly C. share poems and stories with her friend D. learn from her classmates at school 9. In Paragraph 3, “We gave London to each other” probably means “________”. A. we were unwilling to tear ourselves away from London B. our exploration of London was a memorable gift to both of us C. our unpleasant feeling about London disappeared D. we parted with each other in London 10. In the darkest moments, the author would prefer to ________. A. seek professional help B. break the silence C. stay with her best friend D. be left alone 11. What is the best title for the passage? A. Unforgettable Experiences B. Remarkable Imagination C. Great Companions D. Lifelong Friendship D How can a creature weighing over 5 tons and normally taking 150 kilograms of food and 120 liters of water per day survive in a desert environment? In the southwest African country of Namibia, and the Sahara lands of Mali further north, the desert elephant does just that. Although not regarded as a separate species from the African elephant, the desert cousin differs in many ways. Their bodies are smaller, to absorb less heat, and their feet are larger for easier walking across sandy surfaces. They are taller, to reach higher branches. They have shorter tusks (象牙), and most importantly, longer trunks to dig for water in riverbeds. Desert elephants can travel over 70 kilometers in search for feeding grounds and waterholes, and have a larger group of families. They drink only every 3-4 days, and can store water in a “bag” at the back of their throat, which is only used when badly needed. Desert elephants are careful feeders---they seldom root up trees and break fewer branches, and thus maintain what little food sources are available. Young elephants may even eat the dung (粪便) of the female leader of a group when facing food shortage. During drought they are unlikely to give birth to their young but with good rains the birthrate will increase greatly. Desert elephants have sand baths, sometimes adding their own urine (尿液) to make them muddy! As we continue to overheat our weak planet, it can only be hoped that other animal species will adapt as extraordinarily well to change as the desert elephant. 12. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 means “_____”. A. remains in the African countries B. drinks 120 liters of water a day C. manages to live in desert areas D. eats 150 kilograms of food daily 13. Desert elephants are called careful feeders because they _____. A. rarely ruin trees B. drink only every 3-4 days C. search for food in large groups D. protect food sources for their young 14. The author answers the question raised in the first paragraph with _____. A. stories and explanation B. facts and descriptions C. examples and conclusion D. evidence and argument 15. What can be inferred from the last sentence in the passage? A. Overheating the earth can be stopped. B. Not all animal species are so adaptable. C. The planet will become hotter and hotter. D. Not all animals are as smart as desert elephants. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The importance of learning outside goes beyond fresh air and fun.

The trail twisted and turned through some incredible small woods. Occasionally they would stop to climb a tree and find a comfortable branch to sit on so they could take a break from riding in the heat. On this particular day, the three kids were settled in one of their preferred trees when Jay spotted something shiny on the ground. “What could that be?” he asked Mike and Tony as he pointed out the object reflecting the sun. They all hopped down from their individual branches and went to take a closer look. What they found was unbelievable. It was a gold money clip ( 夹子) holding five hundred dollars. Mike immediately cried out, “Awesome! We can split up the money, and we will each be much closer to being able to buy the new bikes we want.” “Not so fast,” said Tony. “Jay was the one who spotted the cash. To be fair, he should get more.” “Are you guys crazy?” asked Jay. “We can’t keep the money. It isn’t ours. Aren’t we more mature than to play finders keepers like we did when we were kids?” “Stop being such an advocate for honesty,” complained Mike and Tony. “Let’s all go home and think about this,” said Jay, knowing that he could have made the call because he was the one who spotted the money clip in the first place. Mike and Tony agreed to Jay’s suggestion. Jay kept the money and they all rode their bikes home. They decided to meet up after dinner at the head of the off-road trail. Mike and Tony lived on the same street so they rode home most of the way together. They were able to talk a bit more without Jay’s input. The more they talked, the more they came to see Jay’s point. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 After dinner, as agreed, the three kids met back up. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, Jay received a phone call asking him to go to the police station. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
