However, deciding to get rid of (摆脱) a bad situation, he called a meeting of the rest of the foxes and suggested that they should all follow his example. “You have no idea,” he said, “I could never have believed it if I had not tried it myself. But really, when you come to think of it, a tail is such an ugly, useless thing, that one wonders how foxes have put up with it so long. I suggest, therefore, my friends, that you should all learn from my example. All foxes from now on should cut off their tails.” Hearing this, one of the oldest fox stand out, and said, “I rather think, my friend, that you would not have advised us to part with our tails, if there had been any chance of recovering (恢复) your own.” 26.

However, deciding to get rid of (摆脱) a bad situation, he called a meeting of the rest of the foxes and suggested that they should all follow his example .”可知他为没有尾巴而感到羞愧，为了摆脱这种情况，他召集了其他狐狸开会，建议他们都以他为榜样。故选C。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据“I rather think, my friend, that you would not have advised us to part with our tails, if there had been any chance of recovering (恢复) your own”可知这只老狐狸反对这只狐狸，认为如果有机会恢复他的尾巴，他也不会建议他们把尾巴分开，可见这只老狐狸是勇敢的。故选D。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了一只狐狸为了逃脱陷阱牺牲了尾巴，之后却因羞耻而试图说服其他狐狸效仿它把尾巴割掉，这告诉我们把自己的损失带给别人是自私的。故选A。 B EK4KIDS’ Safe and Reliable (可靠的) Door-to-Door School Rides 10,000 children over 50 schools 4.8 star rating (评价) Testimonial (表扬信) Emma ★★★★★3 months ago Not sure at the beginning if to use their services last year, but everything went well all the school year for my son and my daughter.

They can often be seen in the African grasslands eating grass near each other. The grass in the African grasslands goes brown and stops growing in the driest part of the year. When this happens, animals go to look for food in other places. Each year up to 1.5 million wildebeest set out on a long journey to find food. They return when the rains come again. Many plant-eating animals have body parts that help them get food. The giraffe uses its long neck to reach the high leaves of the acacia trees (金合欢树). Other animals can’t reach this high. Elephants are huge animals, and need lots of food. They have long noses to reach and grab food well. They also have teeth and strong mouths to make plants into pieces. They eat grass, flowers, leaves, and bark. 36. Which of the following animals are not plant-eating animals? A. Wildebeest. B. Zebra. C. Elephants. D. Tiger. 37. Which is WRONG about plant-eating animals in the African grasslands? A. They can’t make their own food. B. They can often be seen in the African grasslands. C. They can’t get their food from plants. D. They have body parts that help them get food. 38. When will the animals come back to the African grasslands ? A. When grasslands goes brown. B. When grasslands stop growing. C. When lots of rain comes again. D. When there is very little rain. 39. Which word can replace the word “grab” in Paragraph 3? A. move suddenly B. get quickly C. throw quickly D. carry carefully 40 What’s the main idea of the paragraph 3? A. The giraffe uses its long neck to reach the high leaves of trees. B. Elephants are large animals. C. Many Animals’ body parts help them get food. D. Plant-eating animals eat grass, flowers and leaves. 【答案】36. D 37. C 38. C 39. B 40. C 【解析】 【导语】文章是一篇说明文。文章通过描述动物的食性、迁徙行为以及它们的身体特征来说明非洲草原上的食草动物是如何在非洲草原上生存的。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Plant-eating animals, like elephants, zebras and wildebeest, are the second link in the food chain.”可知，大象、斑马和角马都是食草动物，所以老虎不是食草动物。故选D。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They can often be seen in the African grasslands eating grass near each other.”可知。在非洲草原上可以经常看到他们相互靠近吃草。所以C“它们不能从植物中获取食物。”表示错误。故选C。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They return when the rains come again.”可知，动物们会在雨季再次来临时返回非洲草原。故选C。 【39题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“They have long noses to reach and grab food well.”句式结构可知，该词与“reach”表递进，应表达大象的长鼻子到达然后得到食物，故表示“快速得到”的意思。故选B。 【40题详解】 主旨大意题。通读第三段可知，第三段主要讲述了不同动物如何利用它们的身体部位来获取食物，如长颈鹿利用长颈，大象利用长鼻子和强壮的嘴巴。故选C。 D Some sportspeople try to improve their chances of winning by using drugs (毒品). Drugs that improve performance (表现) make a person’s body go faster or become stronger than it would be. These drugs are known as performance-enhancing drugs (兴奋剂). These drugs have no place in sport today. Sportspeople who use performance-enhancing drugs take them to improve their performance. They want to improve their performance because of the glory (荣誉) and rewards (奖金) that come from being a sporting success. People who reach the top of a sport can become famous and get a lot of money. Sporting groups and governments around the world are trying to get rid of (摆脱) performance-enhancing drugs in sport. To help get rid of drugs in sport, leading sportspeople may be tested to see whether or not they have traces (痕迹) of performance-enhancing drugs in their bodies. If a test shows that a sportsperson has taken a performance enhancing drug, he or she may be banned (明令禁止) from his or her sport for a few years-or even for life. The sportsperson may also lose his or her medals . 41. The performance-enhancing drugs can ________.

They will be banned from the sport for life. D. They will continue to be a success in the sport. 【答案】41. C 42. A 43. D 44. A 45. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了兴奋剂的负面影响，并介绍了全球通过检测和惩罚使用这些药物的人来消除这些药物。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Drugs that improve performance (表现) make a person’s body go faster or become stronger than it would be”可知提高运动表现的药物会使人的身体比预期更快或更强壮。故选C。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They want to improve their performance because of the glory (荣誉) and rewards (奖金) that come from being a sporting success”可知他们想提高自己的表现，因为体育上的成功会带来荣耀和奖励。故选A。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Some sportspeople try to improve their chances of winning by using drugs”可知一些运动员正试图在运动中服用提高成绩的药物。故选D。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据“To help get rid of drugs in sport, leading sportspeople may be tested to see whether or not they have traces (痕迹) of performance-enhancing drugs in their bodies”可知为了帮助消除运动中的药物，可以对顶尖运动员进行测试，看看他们体内是否有提高成绩的药物的痕迹。故选A。 【45题详解】 细节理解题。根据“If a test shows that a sportsperson has taken a performance enhancing drug, he or she may be banned (明令禁止) from his or her sport for a few years-or even for life. The sportsperson may also lose his or her medals”可知如果测试显示运动员服用了提高成绩的药物，他或她可能会被禁止参加运动几年甚至终身，运动员也可能失去奖牌。故选D。 三、短文还原（共5空，每空2分，计10分） Carers (看护者) are people who care for other people. ____46____ It may be because they are too old to look after themselves.

He lost his balance in trying to get the stick and fell into the water.”可知，他试图拿那根棍子时失去了平衡，掉进了水里。故填He lost his balance in trying to get the stick. 【63题详解】 开放性试题，列举两个旅行中会遇到的事故即可。参考答案为Traffic accidents and losing luggage. 【64题详解】 分析句子可知，此处是and引导的并列句。He“他”；hurried to them as quickly as possible“尽快赶到他们那里”；and“并且”；saved them from drowning“把他们从溺水中救出来”。故填：他尽快赶到他们身边，把他们从溺水中救出来。 【65题详解】 根据通读全文可知，本文介绍了一次旅行中乘船时发生的翻船事故。故填A boat accident. 六、书面表达（共2小题，计30分） 任务一（10分） 66. 请同学们仔细阅读下面关于友谊的两个观点，选择你赞同的观点并给出适当理由。填写在下表方框内，总词数不超40个词。 Point of view (论点) ____________________________________________________________ Arguments (论据) ____________________________________________________________ Supporting examples (论证) ____________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Point of view: The more friends you have, the happier you will be.

C Plant-eating animals, like elephants, zebras and wildebeest (角马), are the second link in the food chain. They can often be seen in the African grasslands eating grass near each other. The grass in the African grasslands goes brown and stops growing in the driest part of the year. When this happens, animals go to look for food in other places. Each year up to 1.5 million wildebeest set out on a long journey to find food. They return when the rains come again. Many plant-eating animals have body parts that help them get food. The giraffe uses its long neck to reach the high leaves of the acacia trees (金合欢树). Other animals can’t reach this high. Elephants are huge animals, and need lots of food. They have long noses to reach and grab food well. They also have teeth and strong mouths to make plants into pieces. They eat grass, flowers, leaves, and bark. 36. Which of the following animals are not plant-eating animals? A. Wildebeest. B. Zebra. C. Elephants. D. Tiger. 37. Which is WRONG about plant-eating animals in the African grasslands? A.

When will the animals come back to the African grasslands ? A. When grasslands goes brown. B. When grasslands stop growing. C. When lots of rain comes again. D. When there is very little rain. 39. Which word can replace the word “grab” in Paragraph 3? A. move suddenly B. get quickly C. throw quickly D. carry carefully 40. What’s the main idea of the paragraph 3? A. The giraffe uses its long neck to reach the high leaves of trees. B. Elephants are large animals. C. Many Animals’ body parts help them get food. D. Plant-eating animals eat grass, flowers and leaves. D Some sportspeople try to improve their chances of winning by using drugs (毒品). Drugs that improve performance (表现) make a person’s body go faster or become stronger than it would be. These drugs are known as performance-enhancing drugs (兴奋剂). These drugs have no place in sport today. Sportspeople who use performance-enhancing drugs take them to improve their performance. They want to improve their performance because of the glory (荣誉) and rewards (奖金) that come from being a sporting success. People who reach the top of a sport can become famous and get a lot of money. Sporting groups and governments around the world are trying to get rid of (摆脱) performance-enhancing drugs in sport. To help get rid of drugs in sport, leading sportspeople may be tested to see whether or not they have traces (痕迹) of performance-enhancing drugs in their bodies. If a test shows that a sportsperson has taken a performance enhancing drug, he or she may be banned (明令禁止) from his or her sport for a few years-or even for life. The sportsperson may also lose his or her medals . 41. The performance-enhancing drugs can ________.

He was taking for a trip on the water. The boat was a large one, and could not easily tip over (翻倒). Mr and Mrs Rose, the boatman, and several little boys and girls were in the boat. “Keep still, please, boys,” said the boatman, when Edgar Rose and Thomas Read began to move from one side to the other. They kept quiet for a short time only. Edgar soon wanted a stick which Thomas held in his hand. He lost his balance in trying to get the stick and fell into the water. Mr and Mrs Rose both stood up, and stretched (拽) out their arms to save him but in so doing, they tipped the boat. Everyone fell into the water, and all were in the greatest danger of being drowned (淹死). Another boat was near, with only one man in it.
