A. To work B. Worked C. To be working D. Having worked 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：连着工作两天后，史蒂夫成功地按时完成了报告。句子已经存在谓语managed，所以work需要转化为非谓语，它和逻辑主语Steve之间呈主动关系，并且可明显发现“先工作两天后，才完成报告”，这种情况下应该使用having done。故选D项。 5.

A. didn’t see B. haven’t seen C. hadn’t seen D. wouldn’t see 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查动词时态。句意：当沿着街道散步的时候，我遇见了多年未见的David。根据语境，“not see”这个动作发生在come across之前，是过去的过去发生的动作，用过去完成时。故选C。 【名师点睛】英语中的时态主要由动词的形式决定，因此在学习英语时态时，要注意分析动词形式及具体语境，想象在那个特定的时间动作所发生的背景，这个动作是经常性动作、一般性动作、进行性动作、完成性动作还是将要发生的动作。过去完成时是一个相对的时态，表示过去的过去的动作，还有一个特点就是和过去的一段时间搭配。 6.

A. are home to B. are likely to C. are native to D. are unfamiliar to 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查固定短语词义辨析。句意：许多植物原产于巴西。然后它们被引进到其他一些国家。A.are home to是.....家园； B.are likely to可能； C.are native to 原产于；D.are unfamiliar to不熟悉。根据 “Then they were introduced to some other countries.”可知，许多植物原产于巴西。故选C项。 8. Mr. Smith these days. I think he should take a holiday before he burns out. A. was overworking B. overworked C. has overworked D. has been overworking 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查动词的时态。句意：史密斯先生这些天一直工作过度。我觉得他应该休个假，免得累坏了。分析句意再根据空格后的these days可知，本句时态应该用现在完成进行时表示动作一直持续，谓语动词用have been doing，又因为主语Mr. Smith是第三人称单数，所以用has been doing。故选D项。 9. She returned only _______that the house was a mess but had no idea who was ________. A. to find; to be blamed B. finding; blamed C. to have found; blamed D. to find; to blame 【答案】D 【解析】 【分析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词和固定短语。句意：她回来后发现屋子里乱糟糟的，却不知道该怪谁。第一空为“only to do”结构，表示“却……，不料竟会……”，不定式作结果状语；第二空，表示“该受责备”短语为be to blame。故选D。 10. —Why did the policeman question Bob yesterday? —He was ________ of taking part in the car bombing. A. doubted B. reminded C. suspected D. considered 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：——为什么警察昨天审问鲍勃？——他被怀疑参与了汽车爆炸案。 doubt“怀疑；不相信”（表示无把握；不相信，怀疑其无）；remind“提醒”；suspect“怀疑（有存在或属实的想法；怀疑其有）”；consider“考虑；认为”。根据句意，此处表示怀疑鲍勃有参与汽车爆炸案，故选C。 11.

A. have learnt B. had learnt C. learnt D. would learn 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查时态。句意：到上学期末，我们已经学了2000个英语单词。根据句中By the end of last term可知，此处指截至到上学期末，指“过去之过去”，所以空白处的时态用过去完成时。故选B。 12.

A. inspiring; exciting B. inspiring; excited C. inspired; excited D. inspired; exciting 【答案】B 【解析】 【分析】 【详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：演讲是如此鼓舞人心，以至于他们都很兴奋。A. inspiring鼓舞人心的；exciting令人兴奋的；B. inspiring鼓舞人心的；excited感到兴奋的；C. inspired受到启发的；excited感到兴奋的；D. inspired受到启发的；exciting令人兴奋的。分析句子结构可知，两个设空处均需填形容词作表语。第一个设空处修饰the speech，需用-ing结尾的形容词，表示“鼓舞人心的”，故填inspiring；第二个设空处修饰they，表示 “人的感受”，需用-ed结尾的形容词，意为“感到兴奋的”，故填excited。故选B。 13.

As a little girl, Nalini Nadkarni discovered one place where she could always find it. She would climb up into the tall trees around her home. There, high in the trees, she made herself a promise. One day, she would become someone who could use her love of trees to help protect them. As she grew, she became interested in the rainforest. Looking up into the forest trees, Nalini thought there were surely things to be learned in the treetops. She was told, however, that there was nothing important to learn high above her head. Luckily, that didn't stop her. Instead, she used her rock climbing skills to safely reach the forest treetops. There, she discovered the whole ecosystem. It needed to be studied so scientists could get deeper understanding of the rainforest. Dr Nadkarni also discovered the importance of canopy soil (树冠层土壤). When mosses(藓)and other plants that live on trees die, they slowly become canopy soil. The soil is nutrient-rich, and the whole ecosystem depends on it. Even the trees themselves take nutrients from canopy soil. To create greater interest in forest studies, Dr Nadkarni really got creative. In the early 2000s, she bought second hand Barbie dolls and turned them into "forest Barbies". Finally, Mattel, the company behind Barbie, used Dr Nadkarni's idea to create dolls to make science interesting to children everywhere. Now, Dr Nadkarni can truly consider her childhood promise well kept. 46. When Dr Nadkarni was a little girl, she could find peace________. A. in the tall trees B. in the rainforest C. when she was doing research D. when she was with her family 47. The underlined word "that" in Paragraph 2 refers to________. A the forest treetops B. a different opinion C. Dr Nadkarni's bad luck D. the dangers of climbing trees 48. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. What canopy soil is. B. How a new ecosystem was found. C. Dr Nadkarni's childhood promise. D. One of Dr Nadkarni's discoveries. 49. Dr Nadkarni used Barbie dolls to________. A. raise money for her research B. help Mattel reach more children C. make her childhood dream come true D. make children more interested in science 50. Which of the following is TRUE about Dr Nadkarni? A. She is a creative scientist. B. She can't keep her promise. C. She was born into a small family. D. She loved Barbie dolls as a little girl. 【答案】46. A 47. B 48. D 49. D 50. A 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了Nalini Nadkarni从小就喜欢在树上寻找安宁，长大后，开始对雨林感兴趣，然后开始研究雨林以及其所处的生态系统，还发现了树冠层土壤的重要性，而且还创造了“森林芭比娃娃”，激发人们对森林研究更大的兴趣，进而达到保护森林的目的。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Every child who grows up in a big family needs a little peace sometimes. As a little girl, Nalini Nadkarni discovered one place where she could always find it. She would climb up into the tall trees around her home. (每个在大家庭中长大的孩子有时都需要一点安宁。当她还是个小女孩的时候，Nalini Nadkarni就发现了一个她总能找到安宁的地方。她会爬上她家周围的大树)”可知，Nalini Nadkarni在大树上能找到安宁，故选A。 【47题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Looking up into the forest trees, Nalini thought there were surely things to be learned in the treetops. She was told, however, that there was nothing important to learn high above her head. Luckily, that didn't stop her. Instead, she used her rock climbing skills to safely reach the forest treetops. (Nalini抬头望着森林里的树木，她想在树梢上肯定可以学到一些东西。然而，她被告知，头顶上没有什么重要的东西需要她去学。幸运的是，that并没有阻止她。相反，她用自己的攀岩技巧安全地到达了森林的树梢)”可知，她认为树梢上有重要的东西可以学习，而别人认为上面没有什么她可学习的，但是别人的观点并没有阻止她，她依然爬上了树梢去探索，所以可知that指的是和她不一样的观点，故选B。 【48题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段段首“Dr Nadkarni also discovered the importance of canopy soil (树冠层土壤). (Nadkarni博士还发现了冠层土壤的重要性)”可知本段主要介绍树冠层土壤的重要性，也就是Nadkarni博士的一个发现，故选D。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“To create greater interest in forest studies, Dr Nadkarni really got creative. In the early 2000s, she bought second hand Barbie dolls and turned them into "forest Barbies". (为了激发人们对森林研究更大的兴趣，Nadkarni博士真的发挥了创造性。在21世纪初，她买了二手芭比娃娃，并把它们变成了 “森林芭比娃娃”)”可知，Nadkarni博士用芭比娃娃是为了激发人们尤其是孩子对森林研究的兴趣，也就是对科学的兴趣，故选D。 【50题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“To create greater interest in forest studies, Dr Nadkarni really got creative. In the early 2000s, she bought second hand Barbie dolls and turned them into "forest Barbies". (为了激发人们对森林研究更大的兴趣，Nadkarni博士真的发挥了创造性。在21世纪初，她买了二手芭比娃娃，并把它们变成了 “森林芭比娃娃”)”可知，Nadkarni博士是一个有创造性的科学家，故选A。 第Ⅱ卷 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 When I was 10, my friend Sydney suffered from a brain cancer. Sydney fought against it, but the cancer did not respond to the treatment, and could not be removed. Sydney died at the age of 11. After her death, I felt sad and discouraged. I decided to turn these negative emotions into positive actions. When I was 15 years old, I founded the Pink Polka Dots Guild (PPD) with two friends. My goal is to raise enough money to find a cure for brain cancer, which is the second most common cancer in children. Over the years, PPD had held fundraisers (募捐活动) across the city. The first Pink Polka Dots Guild event, a garage sale, just raised $900, but our latest fundraiser, the 2012 golf tournament, brought in over $73,000. In the past five years, we have raised almost a million dollars to help do a research on removing brain cancer. I’ve been shocked by the public recognition that PPD has earned. It received an award from President. This great honour raised awareness and money for our cause. The efforts that we have made has truly helped cancer research. PPD has provided start-up funding for scientific discoveries, such as “Tumor Paint”, which illuminates (照射) cancerous cells so that doctors can remove them with amazing accuracy. The discovery appeared in Time Magazine. I was very proud to have helped fund the research of this life-saving technology. Pink Polka Dots has inspired me to be an activist. My experience has taught me that with devotion, it is possible to make a difference in the world. The determination that Pink Polka Dots set off in me has carried over to all aspects of my life, making me a competitive speaker and a devoted volunteer. 51. What happened to Sydney when she was 11? (No more than 10 words) ________________ 52. What does PPD aim to do? (No more than 14 words) ________________ 53 What does the underlined word “removing” in Paragraph 3 mean? (No more than 5 words) ________________ 54. Why did the author feel proud according to Paragraph 5? (No more than 15 words) ________________ 55. What can we learn from the author’s experience according to the passage? (No more Than 25 words) ________________ 【答案】51. Sydney died at the age of 11. 52. PPD aims to raise money to help do a research on removing brain cancer. 53. Cut off. 54. Because he found PPD, which has helped fund the research of life-saving technology. 55. We have learned that it is possible to make a difference in the world with devotion. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述在作者11岁的时候，他的朋友Sydney因为脑癌去世，因此他15岁的时候和朋友成立PPD募捐活动，募集资金帮助寻找脑癌的治疗方法。PPD募捐活动得到公众的认可，并且为一些科学发现提供了启动资金，作者的经验告诉我们只要付出，就有可能改变世界。 【51题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段“When I was 10, my friend Sydney suffered from a brain cancer. Sydney fought against it, but the cancer did not respond to the treatment, and could not be removed. Sydney died at the age of 11. (在我10岁的时候，我的朋友Sydney患了脑癌。Sydney与癌症作了斗争，但是癌症对治疗没有反应，也不能切除。Sydney 11岁时就去世了。)”由此可知，Sydney在11岁时由于脑癌去世了。故答案为Sydney died at the age of 11. 【52题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段“Over the years, PPD had held fundraisers (募捐活动) across the city. The first Pink Polka Dots Guild event, a garage sale, just raised $900, but our latest fundraiser, the 2012 golf tournament, brought in over $73,000. In the past five years, we have raised almost a million dollars to help do a research on removing brain cancer. (多年来，PPD在整个城市举办募捐活动。第一次PPD公会活动，一场车库甩卖，刚刚筹集了900美元，但我们最新的筹款活动，2012年的高尔夫锦标赛，筹集了超过73000美元。在过去的五年里，我们已经筹集了近一百万美元来帮助进行一项移除脑癌的研究。)”以及第五段“The efforts that we have made has truly helped cancer research. PPD has provided start-up funding for scientific discoveries (我们所做的努力确实帮助了癌症研究。PPD为一些科学发现提供了启动资金)”可知，PPD活动旨在筹集资金帮助移除脑癌的研究。故答案为PPD aims to raise money to help do a research on removing brain cancer. 【53题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据第二段“When I was 15 years old, I founded the Pink Polka Dots Guild (PPD) with two friends. My goal is to raise enough money to find a cure for brain cancer, which is the second most common cancer in children. (当我15岁的时候，我和两个朋友一起创建了PPD。我的目标是筹集足够的资金来找到脑癌的治疗方法，脑癌是儿童中第二常见的癌症。)”再根据划线处后面的brain cancer，可知是找到治疗方法消除或者切除脑癌，所以推断removing意为“消除，移除，切除”。故答案为Cut off. 【54题详解】 考查推理判断。根据第五段“The efforts that we have made has truly helped cancer research. PPD has provided start-up funding for scientific discoveries, such as “Tumor Paint”, which illuminates (照射) cancerous cells so that doctors can remove them with amazing accuracy. The discovery appeared in Time Magazine. I was very proud to have helped fund the research of this life-saving technology. (我们所做的努力确实帮助了癌症研究。PPD为一些科学发现提供了启动资金，比如“肿瘤染色”，它能照亮癌细胞，这样医生就能以惊人的准确性切除它们。这一发现刊登在《时代》杂志上。我很自豪能够资助这项拯救生命的技术的研究。)”由此可推断出，作者创立的PPD为一些科学发现提供了资金，为这些研究提供了帮助，所以作者感到很自豪。故答案为Because he found PPD, which has helped fund the research of life-saving technology. 【55题详解】 考查推理判断。根据最后一段“Pink Polka Dots has inspired me to be an activist. My experience has taught me that with devotion, it is possible to make a difference in the world. The determination that Pink Polka Dots set off in me has carried over to all aspects of my life, making me a competitive speaker and a devoted volunteer. (PPD激励我成为一名积极分子。我的经验告诉我，只要付出，就有可能改变世界。PPD带给我的决心影响了我生活的方方面面，使我成为一名有竞争力的演讲者和一名敬业的志愿者。)”可知我们能从作者经历中学习到只要付出，就有可能改变世界。故答案为 We have learned that it is possible to make a difference in the world with devotion. 第二节：词语填写（每题1分，满分10分） 56.

C Every child who grows up in a big family needs a little peace sometimes. As a little girl, Nalini Nadkarni discovered one place where she could always find it. She would climb up into the tall trees around her home. There, high in the trees, she made herself a promise. One day, she would become someone who could use her love of trees to help protect them. As she grew, she became interested in the rainforest. Looking up into the forest trees, Nalini thought there were surely things to be learned in the treetops. She was told, however, that there was nothing important to learn high above her head. Luckily, that didn't stop her. Instead, she used her rock climbing skills to safely reach the forest treetops. There, she discovered the whole ecosystem. It needed to be studied so scientists could get deeper understanding of the rainforest. Dr Nadkarni also discovered the importance of canopy soil (树冠层土壤). When mosses(藓)and other plants that live on trees die, they slowly become canopy soil. The soil is nutrient-rich, and the whole ecosystem depends on it. Even the trees themselves take nutrients from canopy soil. To create greater interest in forest studies, Dr Nadkarni really got creative. In the early 2000s, she bought second hand Barbie dolls and turned them into "forest Barbies". Finally, Mattel, the company behind Barbie, used Dr Nadkarni's idea to create dolls to make science interesting to children everywhere. Now, Dr Nadkarni can truly consider her childhood promise well kept. 46. When Dr Nadkarni was a little girl, she could find peace________. A. in the tall trees B. in the rainforest C. when she was doing research D. when she was with her family 47. The underlined word "that" in Paragraph 2 refers to________. A. the forest treetops B. a different opinion C. Dr Nadkarni's bad luck D. the dangers of climbing trees 48. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. What canopy soil is. B. How a new ecosystem was found. C. Dr Nadkarni's childhood promise. D. One of Dr Nadkarni's discoveries. 49. Dr Nadkarni used Barbie dolls to________. A. raise money for her research B. help Mattel reach more children C. make her childhood dream come true D. make children more interested in science 50. Which of the following is TRUE about Dr Nadkarni? A. She is a creative scientist. B. She can't keep her promise. C. She was born into a small family. D. She loved Barbie dolls as a little girl. 第Ⅱ卷 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 When I was 10, my friend Sydney suffered from a brain cancer. Sydney fought against it, but the cancer did not respond to the treatment, and could not be removed. Sydney died at the age of 11. After her death, I felt sad and discouraged. I decided to turn these negative emotions into positive actions. When I was 15 years old, I founded the Pink Polka Dots Guild (PPD) with two friends. My goal is to raise enough money to find a cure for brain cancer, which is the second most common cancer in children. Over the years, PPD had held fundraisers (募捐活动) across the city. The first Pink Polka Dots Guild event, a garage sale, just raised $900, but our latest fundraiser, the 2012 golf tournament, brought in over $73,000. In the past five years, we have raised almost a million dollars to help do a research on removing brain cancer. I’ve been shocked by the public recognition that PPD has earned. It received an award from President. This great honour raised awareness and money for our cause. The efforts that we have made has truly helped cancer research. PPD has provided start-up funding for scientific discoveries, such as “Tumor Paint”, which illuminates (照射) cancerous cells so that doctors can remove them with amazing accuracy. The discovery appeared in Time Magazine. I was very proud to have helped fund the research of this life-saving technology. Pink Polka Dots has inspired me to be an activist. My experience has taught me that with devotion, it is possible to make a difference in the world. The determination that Pink Polka Dots set off in me has carried over to all aspects of my life, making me a competitive speaker and a devoted volunteer. 51. What happened to Sydney when she was 11?
