Many people might think that if they had more money, then they would be happier in life. For example, people might look at what others have, like expensive clothes or nice cars, and wish they could have the same. But the things that money can buy cannot bring happiness to a person for a long time.
But is that really true? Studies have found that money can, in fact, make people happier. But it’s not having money that brings happiness. Instead, it’s giving money to others that makes people happy. It could be buying a gift for a friend or a family member. It could be buying a homeless person food to eat. It could be giving money to a person in need. Just think about the last time you used your own money to do something for someone else. How did you feel? Whether it is a small large amount of money, people feel happier when they give. This is because making someone else happy makes the giver happy, too.
This idea of connecting (关联) your happiness to the happiness of others is called “ubuntu” in an African language. There is even a story about a man visiting Africa. He asked some children to race to a nearby tree. The first child to touch the tree would get a sweet treat. Surprisingly, all the children held hands and ran together. They all touched the tree at the same time. The man asked why they did this. The children simply said they could only enjoy eating the treat if everyone had one.
32. What does the writer say about buying things?
A. Buying things can make people worried.
B. Buying things can make people scared.
C. Buying things may bring sadness for long.
D. Buying things may bring happiness for a short time.
33. Why does the writer write the story in paragraph 3?
A. To explain (解释) Africans like sweets. B. To show children like to share sweets.
C. To explain the idea of happiness connecting. D. To tell happiness is from children.
34. What does the underlined word “they” refer to (指代) in the last paragraph?
A. The trees. B. The sweets. C. The children. D. The others.
35. What does the writer try to tell us?
A. Buying new things can make people happy.
B. The key to happiness is to make others happy.
C. If you want to be happy, you can visit Africa.
D. People who have a lot of money might not be happy.
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. C 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了金钱和幸福的关系,金钱能买到的东西不能给人带来长久的幸福,幸福的关键是让别人幸福。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“But the things that money can buy cannot bring happiness to a person for a long time.”可知金钱能买到的东西并不能在很长一段时间内给一个人带来幸福。故选D。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据“This idea of connecting (关联) your happiness to the happiness of others is called ‘ubuntu’ in an African language. There is even a story about a man visiting Africa.”可知,本段通过引用故事突出了文章的主旨,即将自己的快乐与让他人的快乐相联系,这正是作者所要表达的观点。故选C。
【34题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“The man asked why they did this. The children simply said they could only enjoy eating the treat if everyone had one.”可知,那人问他们为什么这样做。孩子们只是说,只有每个人都有一个,他们才会享受这个甜点。故推测they指代“the children”。故选C。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据“This is because making someone else happy makes the giver happy, too.”以及全文可知,文章主要讲述什么真正使人快乐,作者认为让他人感到快乐,自己才会快乐。故选B。

【详解】句意:这场大火发生在清晨,当每个人都在睡觉的时候。根据语境以及后半句“when everyone was sleeping”可知,该空应用一般过去时态,谓语动词用过去式,结合句意以及首字母可知,该空应用“happen”表示“发生”,变为过去式形式“happened”。故填(h)appened。
49. “When I’m away, you need to cook for y________.” Mrs Smith said to her kids.
【答案】(y)ourselves
【解析】
【详解】句意:“我不在的时候,你们得自己做饭。”史密斯夫人对她的孩子们说。根据“you need to cook for…”及首字母提示可知该处需要用反身代词,主语是you,其反身代词是yourself,意为“你自己”,又根据“Mrs Smith said to her kids.”可知要用其复数,yourselves意为“你们自己”,符合题意,故填(y)ourselves。
50. Could you s________ your umbrella with me? I left mine in the office.
【答案】(s)hare
【解析】
【详解】句意:你能和我分享你的伞吗?我把我的落在办公室了。根据“I left mine in the office.”及首字母提示可知,此处是询问能否分享对方的伞,share sth with sb“和某人分享某物”,Could是情态动词,后跟动词原形。故填(s)hare。

Tom is a 16-year-old high school student. He had lots of bad ____51____ (habit). He stayed up late every day. He liked to use ____52____ Internet for fun at night. He went to bed late, so he ____53____ (wake) up late the next morning. He always slept in class ____54____ he drank a lot of coffee in the morning.

He ____58____ (worry) about his health and studies these days. “I’ll try ____59____ stop playing on the computer,” Tom says. He always reads books when he is free now, because he says he wants to be a _____60_____ (wonder) writer. What a good dream it is!
【答案】51. habits
52. the 53. woke
54. so 55. his
56. quickly
57. points 58. is worried
59. to 60. wonderful
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了汤姆的坏习惯,以及他决定改变,实现自己的梦想。
【51题详解】
句意:他有许多坏习惯。habit是可数名词,lots of后加复数。故填habits。
【52题详解】
句意:他夜里喜欢上网玩乐。Internet是专有名词,且独一无二,前应有定冠词the。故填the。
【53题详解】
句意:他睡觉很晚,所以第二天很晚醒来。根据went可知是一般过去时,故用过去式。故填woke。
【54题详解】
句意:他总是在课上睡觉,所以他早晨喝许多咖啡。根据“He always slept in class...he drank a lot of coffee in the morning.”可知因为他在课上会睡觉,所以早晨会喝咖啡。前因后果,用so“所以”引导。故填so。
【55题详解】
句意:这些都对他的身体不好。用形容词性物主代词修饰名词body,he的形容词性物主代词是his“他的”。故填his。
【56题详解】
句意:他感到很累,有时候没法很快地思考。用副词修饰动词think,quick的副词形式是quickly“快地”。故填quickly。
【57题详解】
句意:他不是每门课都学得好,数学考试只得了30分。point“分数”是可数名词,thirty后加复数。故填points。
【58题详解】
句意:这些天他正在担心他的健康和学习。be worried about“担心”,由“these days”可知表示现在的情况,用一般现在时,主语是he,be动词用is,。故填is worried。
【59题详解】
句意:我会尽量不玩电脑。try to do“尽力做某事”,不定式作宾语。故填to。
【60题详解】
句意:他现在有空的时候总是看书,因为他说他想成为一名出色的作家。形容词修饰名词writer,wonder的形容词形式是wonderful“优秀的”。故填wonderful。

Beijing is known as a large and busy city. But if you walk down one of its main streets into a small alley (巷) you may find something different—Beijing’s hutongs!
People say they live in hutongs, but in fact, they live in the buildings on one side of the hutongs. Hutongs are the alleys between houses.
Beijing has been China’s capital city for over 700 years. As the city grows, the number of its people and houses is becoming larger and larger. Now there are more than 6,000 hutongs in Beijing. If all of them were connected end to end.
Among all these hutongs, there are certainly some exceptional ones. While most of them are straight, some are curved (弯曲的). Jiuwan Hutong is the one with the most curves. It’s only about 390 meters long. Its name means nine curves, the narrowest hutong in Beijing is called Qianshi Hutong. It is only 40 cm wide at its narrowest point. In this hutong, only one person can pass at a time.
Beijing people love hutongs because they bring them a lot of fun and relaxation. In the hutongs, people can enjoy the sun, sing songs and play chess with their neighbors. They can talk with others and listen to some stories.
Hutongs are not only a symbol of Beijing’s culture, but also an important part of China’s national culture. So people try to keep them well as historical places of interest.
29. What are hutongs according to the passage?
A. They are alleys with a history of 800 years.
B They are alleys in the centre of Beijing.
C. They are alleys between houses.
30. How many hutongs are there in Beijing now?
A. Only 390. B. Over 6,000. C. Less than 700.
31 Why do people in Beijing like hutongs?
A. Hutongs give them much happiness.
B. Hutongs have a long history.
C. They can write songs in hutongs.
C
Many people might think that if they had more money, then they would be happier in life. For example, people might look at what others have, like expensive clothes or nice cars, and wish they could have the same. But the things that money can buy cannot bring happiness to a person for a long time.
But is that really true? Studies have found that money can, in fact, make people happier. But it’s not having money that brings happiness. Instead, it’s giving money to others that makes people happy. It could be buying a gift for a friend or a family member. It could be buying a homeless person food to eat. It could be giving money to a person in need. Just think about the last time you used your own money to do something for someone else. How did you feel? Whether it is a small large amount of money, people feel happier when they give. This is because making someone else happy makes the giver happy, too.
This idea of connecting (关联) your happiness to the happiness of others is called “ubuntu” in an African language. There is even a story about a man visiting Africa. He asked some children to race to a nearby tree. The first child to touch the tree would get a sweet treat. Surprisingly, all the children held hands and ran together. They all touched the tree at the same time. The man asked why they did this. The children simply said they could only enjoy eating the treat if everyone had one.
32. What does the writer say about buying things?
A. Buying things can make people worried.
B. Buying things can make people scared.
C. Buying things may bring sadness for long.
D. Buying things may bring happiness for a short time.
33. Why does the writer write the story in paragraph 3?
A. To explain (解释) Africans like sweets. B. To show children like to share sweets.
C. To explain the idea of happiness connecting. D. To tell happiness is from children.
34. What does the underlined word “they” refer to (指代) in the last paragraph?
A. The trees. B. The sweets. C. The children. D. The others.
35. What does the writer try to tell us?
A. Buying new things can make people happy.
B. The key to happiness is to make others happy.
C. If you want to be happy, you can visit Africa.
D. People who have a lot of money might not be happy.
