I’m a strong believer that learning different languages makes you look very good when you’re in a foreign country. The list below introduces 4 apps that will help you learn a foreign language. You can download (下载) them for free.
Babbel Lean Languages
Babbel is an excellent language tool to help you progress step by step with learning a new language. It’ll help you learn grammar well. The only problem is that you need to pay a little money if you want to use everything you need here.
Duolingo Learn Languages free
The app has many languages to choose from and will work through the basics to advanced words and sentences. It’s all completely free too! It looks great and will help you learn, remember and progress with just a little bit of time every day.
Tandern Language Exchange
The app is a little special. By using it, you can have text, voice and video conversations with people who want to learn your language, and in return you learn theirs, all by simply communicating with each other. It’s a great way to learn with only $1 a day.
Busuu Learn English
This app is perfect if you want to learn English. There are all kinds of audio and visual (视觉) learning aids. You’ll find yourself working through interactive tests and learning tools for vocabulary and conversations. But remember it’s not always free to use.
31. Which app suits you best if you want to learn through communication?
A. Babbel B. Duolingo C. Tandern D. Busuu
32. How is Duolingo different from the other three apps?
A. It is completely free to use. B. It is only for English learning.
C. It is unsuitable for beginners. D. It is the most useful app.
33. Why does the writer write the passage?

B
Many of us have seen rainbows in the sky once the sun starts shining again after it rains. For us to see a rainbow, the conditions need to be just right. We need some water drops in the air, like rain or even fog, and we need the sun to be behind us and quite low to the ground. This is because a rainbow is created by light passing through water drops.
The light that comes from the sun seems white to us. But the white light we see is made up of a mix of different colors. When the light goes through a raindrop, these colors can separate out. Each of the colors in the rainbow has a different “wavelength” (波长). Raindrops look like little balls. When light hits one of these little balls of water, the light can change direction. We call this “refraction” (折射). Each of the different wavelengths is refracted differently. If the light hits the raindrop at the right place, the refraction separates the wavelengths out into their different colors.
We are taught there are seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. But this isn’t exactly true. Blue and green are next to each other in the rainbow, which is why we can see turquoise (a mix of blue and green). Brown is a mix of red and green. But they aren’t next to each other in the rainbow, so we don’t see them mix to make brown.
We would never see black and white in a rainbow. Black is what we see when there’s no light at all. On the other hand, white is a mix of all the colors together. When light is refracted by raindrops, it separates the white light out, meaning it is no longer white.
34 We can see a rainbow under the right conditions because _________.
A. the raindrops are like little balls B. the light goes through raindrops
C. the sunshine seems to be colorful D. the weather is foggy after it rains
35. According to the passage, what can we know about the colors in the rainbow?
A. They can become brown or black. B. There are only seven colors in all.
C. They mix to make the white light. D. Their own places can be changed.
36. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. How are the colors received in the rainbow?
B. When can the colors turn blue in the rainbow?
C. Which colors aren’t covered with light in the rainbow?
D. Why can’t we find white, black and brown in the rainbow?
C
Zibo city in Shandong province has stormed the Internet since late February for its local barbecue. In March, the small city received about 4.8 million tourists. It is certainly not the only city that offers barbecue, or even the most famous one, but its seemingly sudden fame was steps in the making.
Zhou Mao song, president of the Zibo Tourism Promotion Association said the popularity started from the crowd-gathering effect of cultural and tourism activities including a music festival. Then famous people tasted the barbecue and put their experiences online attracting young people, which led to a wave of students from neighbouring cities visiting Zibo. What better way to lure adventurous and hungry college students other than “tasty barbecue that makes you full within only 50 yuan!”
However, Zibo did not fall into the trap (陷阱) of easy fame that dies fast where sellers cheat buyers on price and quality for the most profit (盈利) in the shortest time. A blogger on Douyin took an electronic scale (电子秤) to ten barbecue stands in Ziboto test if he would be offered less food. It turned out that not a single one was caught short of weight and some owners even offered him local snacks for free. Local people’s honest and friendly behaviour touched even more people online and again lifted the city’s popularity.
Zibo’s successful story has inspired governments in other parts of the country to find their ways of supporting local businesses.
37. What does the underlined word “lure” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Organize. B. Challenge C. Follow. D. Attract.
38. What are the other reasons for Zibo’s popularity besides the crowd-gathering effect?
①Famous people’s recommendation. ②Barbecue at low prices.
③Support from neighbouring cities. ④Local people’s kindness.
A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①②④ D. ①③④
39. How would the blogger on Douyin feel after testing ten barbecue stands?
A. Relaxed and pleased B. Surprised and moved.
C. Nervous and helpless D. Disappointed and bored.
40. Where is the passage probably taken from?
A. A science fiction. B. A travel guide.
C. A food advertisement. D. A news report.
D
“Wake up, everybody.” Robin shouted. “It is time for us to find another rich guest to pay for our feast.” Little John woke up slowly.
“You go west, and I go east. We try to find the richest man and bring him here!”
Robin walked for miles and saw many people but none of them were rich. But when he was eating, he saw a knight.
Robin said hello to him. The knight stopped, but said nothing. His face was full of sadness. “You need a good feast to cheer you up!” said Robin. “I have no reason to be happy,”said the knight “My name is Robin Hood. Who are you?” For a moment, the knight’s eyes grew wide. He knew all about Robin Hood’s feasts. “I am Sir Richard Lea,” he said, “but I have no money to give you for your feast.” Robin asked, “You are a knight, and knights are rich men.”
Sir Richard sighed. “My son killed another knight by accident and I had to pay a huge fine. To get the money, I had to borrow from the Priory of Emmet. Now I must return that money to the Priory or lose my land and my castle.” Robin felt sorry for the knight. “Come with me and Perhaps I can help you.”he said. Sir Richard agreed and followed Robin back to Sherwood Forest.
When they arrived at the camp, Robin told him to enjoy himself. Then Robin asked Little John. “Did you find a rich guest?” Little John laughed. “Yes, I did.” and brought forward his guest and Robin recognized(认出) him at once. It was “The Bishop of Hereford!” Robin said. “We meet again. Welcome to our feast.” The bishop was furious(愤怒的), but he didn’t say anything. He was too afraid of Robin.
Just then Robin saw there was a box tightly held in his hands.
Robin shot the box with his sword. The box hit the ground and thousands of gold coins fell out of it. Sir Richard came forward and Robin pointed to him, “Do you know this man?” Robin asked the bishop “Yes,” replied the bishop. “Does he owe you money?”“He owes money to the Priory of Emmet and I am the bishop for the Priory.”
Robin said, “Many people say you are the richest bishop in England.” Robin started to count the coins and said, “I think you have plenty of money and you want to help Sir Richard.” When there were five hundred gold coins in Robin’s hands, he gave them to Sir Richard. “Take this,” he said, “and pay your fine.”
Soon, Sir Richard left with the five hundred gold coins. He thanked Robin Hood and said, “One day, I hope I can repay your great favour.”
After that, Robin freed the bishop. The bishop left the camp quietly without all his money but when he was far away and no one could hear him, he said: “One day, I am going to make Robin Hood very, very sorry for stealing all my money. Wait and see.”
41. Robin Hood tried to find rich guests to his feast ________.
A. to enjoy themselves at the feast B. to make them pay for the feast
C. to tell fun stories to them D. to help with their problems
42. The underlined word “sighed” showed that ________.

43. How much money did Sir Richard need?

③Robin Hood took the bishop’s money to help Sir Richard.
④Robin Hood met the bishop again at the feast.

【详解】句意:——我可以借《鲁宾逊漂流记》吗?——当然,它很有趣,但是你只能借两个星期。
考查动词辨析。borrow借入,短暂性动词;lend借出,短暂性动词;keep保持,这里强调保管,延续性动词。Can I borrow Robinson Crusoe? 强调借入,所以前句用borrow;后句句中for two weeks是一段持续的时间,第二个空需用延续性动词keep.故选C。

【答案】A
【解析】

Many of us have seen rainbows in the sky once the sun starts shining again after it rains. For us to see a rainbow, the conditions need to be just right. We need some water drops in the air, like rain or even fog, and we need the sun to be behind us and quite low to the ground. This is because a rainbow is created by light passing through water drops.
The light that comes from the sun seems white to us. But the white light we see is made up of a mix of different colors. When the light goes through a raindrop, these colors can separate out. Each of the colors in the rainbow has a different “wavelength” (波长). Raindrops look like little balls. When light hits one of these little balls of water, the light can change direction. We call this “refraction” (折射). Each of the different wavelengths is refracted differently. If the light hits the raindrop at the right place, the refraction separates the wavelengths out into their different colors.
We are taught there are seven colors: red orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. But this isn’t exactly true. Blue and green are next to each other in the rainbow, which is why we can see turquoise (a mix of blue and green). Brown is a mix of red and green. But they aren’t next to each other in the rainbow, so we don’t see them mix to make brown.
We would never see black and white in a rainbow. Black is what we see when there’s no light at all. On the other hand, white is a mix of all the colors together. When light is refracted by raindrops, it separates the white light out, meaning it is no longer white.
34. We can see a rainbow under the right conditions because _________.
A. the raindrops are like little balls B. the light goes through raindrops
C. the sunshine seems to be colorful D. the weather is foggy after it rains
35. According to the passage, what can we know about the colors in the rainbow?
A. They can become brown or black. B. There are only seven colors in all.
C. They mix to make the white light. D. Their own places can be changed.
36. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. How are the colors received in the rainbow?
B. When can the colors turn blue in the rainbow?
C. Which colors aren’t covered with light in the rainbow?
D. Why can’t we find white, black and brown in the rainbow?
【答案】34. B 35. C 36. D

Zibo city in Shandong province has stormed the Internet since late February for its local barbecue. In March, the small city received about 4.8 million tourists. It is certainly not the only city that offers barbecue, or even the most famous one, but its seemingly sudden fame was steps in the making.
Zhou Mao song, president of the Zibo Tourism Promotion Association said the popularity started from the crowd-gathering effect of cultural and tourism activities including a music festival. Then famous people tasted the barbecue and put their experiences online attracting young people, which led to a wave of students from neighbouring cities visiting Zibo. What better way to lure adventurous and hungry college students other than “tasty barbecue that makes you full within only 50 yuan!”
However, Zibo did not fall into the trap (陷阱) of easy fame that dies fast where sellers cheat buyers on price and quality for the most profit (盈利) in the shortest time. A blogger on Douyin took an electronic scale (电子秤) to ten barbecue stands in Ziboto test if he would be offered less food. It turned out that not a single one was caught short of weight and some owners even offered him local snacks for free. Local people’s honest and friendly behaviour touched even more people online and again lifted the city’s popularity.
Zibo’s successful story has inspired governments in other parts of the country to find their ways of supporting local businesses.
37. What does the underlined word “lure” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Organize. B. Challenge C. Follow. D. Attract.
38. What are the other reasons for Zibo’s popularity besides the crowd-gathering effect?
①Famous people’s recommendation. ②Barbecue at low prices.
③Support from neighbouring cities. ④Local people’s kindness.
A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①②④ D. ①③④
39. How would the blogger on Douyin feel after testing ten barbecue stands?
A. Relaxed and pleased B. Surprised and moved.
C. Nervous and helpless D. Disappointed and bored.
40. Where is the passage probably taken from?
A. A science fiction. B. A travel guide.
C. A food advertisement. D. A news report.
【答案】37. D 38. C 39. B 40. D

“Wake up, everybody.” Robin shouted. “It is time for us to find another rich guest to pay for our feast.” Little John woke up slowly.
“You go west, and I go east. We try to find the richest man and bring him here!”
Robin walked for miles and saw many people but none of them were rich. But when he was eating, he saw a knight.
Robin said hello to him. The knight stopped, but said nothing. His face was full of sadness. “You need a good feast to cheer you up!” said Robin. “I have no reason to be happy,”said the knight “My name is Robin Hood. Who are you?” For a moment, the knight’s eyes grew wide. He knew all about Robin Hood’s feasts. “I am Sir Richard Lea,” he said, “but I have no money to give you for your feast.” Robin asked, “You are a knight, and knights are rich men.”
Sir Richard sighed. “My son killed another knight by accident and I had to pay a huge fine. To get the money, I had to borrow from the Priory of Emmet. Now I must return that money to the Priory or lose my land and my castle.” Robin felt sorry for the knight. “Come with me and Perhaps I can help you.”he said. Sir Richard agreed and followed Robin back to Sherwood Forest.
When they arrived at the camp, Robin told him to enjoy himself. Then Robin asked Little John. “Did you find a rich guest?” Little John laughed. “Yes, I did.” and brought forward his guest and Robin recognized(认出) him at once. It was “The Bishop of Hereford!” Robin said. “We meet again. Welcome to our feast.” The bishop was furious(愤怒的), but he didn’t say anything. He was too afraid of Robin.
Just then Robin saw there was a box tightly held in his hands.
Robin shot the box with his sword. The box hit the ground and thousands of gold coins fell out of it. Sir Richard came forward and Robin pointed to him, “Do you know this man?” Robin asked the bishop “Yes,” replied the bishop. “Does he owe you money?”“He owes money to the Priory of Emmet and I am the bishop for the Priory.”
Robin said, “Many people say you are the richest bishop in England.” Robin started to count the coins and said, “I think you have plenty of money and you want to help Sir Richard.” When there were five hundred gold coins in Robin’s hands, he gave them to Sir Richard. “Take this,” he said, “and pay your fine.”
Soon, Sir Richard left with the five hundred gold coins. He thanked Robin Hood and said, “One day, I hope I can repay your great favour.”
After that, Robin freed the bishop. The bishop left the camp quietly without all his money but when he was far away and no one could hear him, he said: “One day, I am going to make Robin Hood very, very sorry for stealing all my money. Wait and see.”
