A. at; with B. from; about C. at; about D. in; with 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我们将在四月初举行运动会。——真的？你确定吗？ 考查介词辨析。at在；with和……一起；from来自；about关于；in在……里。at the beginning of“在开始；在……之初”，所以第一空选填at；be sure about“对……有把握”，所以第二空选填about。故选C。 2.

A. hard enough; reading B. enough hard; read C. easy enough; to read D. enough easy; to read 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：这本书对我们孩子来说足够简单去阅读，而且也很有趣。 考查enough和非谓语动词用法。hard enough足够难；easy enough足够简单。“enough”修饰形容词时，需放在形容词后，排除B和D；根据“and it’s also fun”可知，书适合孩子读，第一空用“easy enough”，后接不定式“to read”。故选C。 3. ________ my cousin is very young, ________ she can help with the housework. A. But; / B. Although; but C. Although; / D. Although; and 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：虽然我堂妹非常年轻，但是她可以帮助做家务。 考查连词辨析。although和but不能同时出现在一个句子中，且不和and连用，排除BD；前后两句是让步关系，用although引导让步状语从句。故选C。 4. —I think physic is much _________ than English. —I don’t think so.

A. easy; easiest B. easiest; easy C. easier; easiest D. easier; easy 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我认为物理比英语简单得多。——我不这么认为。我认为英语是所有科目中最简单的。 考查形容词的比较级和最高级的用法。easy容易的，原级；easier更容易的，比较级；easiest最容易的，最高级。由“than”可知，第一空用比较级；由“of all the subjects”可知，第二空用最高级。故选C。 5.

A. less; less B. less; fewer C. fewer; fewer D. fewer; less 【答案】D 【解析】 【分析】 【详解】句意：如果开车的人少一些，空气污染就会少一些。 考查比较级。根据句意可知，开车的更少，污染就会更少。由于“people”是复数，用fewer修饰；“pollution”是不可数名词，用less来修饰。故选D。 6.

A. will be; am going to watch B. will be; am not going to watch C. will have; am going to watch D. will have; am not going to watch 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：下周日我们学校礼堂将有一场音乐表演，但我不打算去看。  考查一般将来时的用法。There will be将会有某物/某活动；am going to watch计划观看；am not going to watch计划不观看。由“There”可知，第一空用There will be；根据“but”可知，此空表示转折，即不打算看。故选B。 7. —Can you answer this question? —Sorry, the question is ________ difficult ________ answer. A. too; to B. such; to C. so; that D. such; that 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你能回答这个问题吗？ ——对不起，这个问题太难回答了。 考查固定句式。too…to…“太……而不能”；such…to…无此搭配，错误，排除B；so…that…“如此……以至于……”；such…that…“如此……以至于……”。根据第一个空后的“difficult”和第二个空后的“answer”可知，此处应用固定句式“too+形容词或副词+to do”。故选A。 8.

A. telling; remember B. tell；remember C. to tell; to remember D. telling; to remember 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：你介意告诉我如何记住英语单词吗？ 考查非谓语动词。由“Would you mind”可知，mind doing sth.“介意做某事”，空一需使用动名词形式telling；由“how”可知，how后接to do不定式表示方式或目的。故选D。 9.

A. keep; make B. will keep; make C. will keep; will make D. keep; will make 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：如果你继续努力工作，你将实现你的梦想。 考查条件句的时态。由“If you...working hard”可知，当从句用一般现在时表示条件时，主句通常用一般将来时，从句用“keep”，一般现在时，主句用“will make”，一般将来时。故选D。 10.

Her funny face made the students laugh. However, the inventor says she is not going to take the place of human teachers. Unlike other robots without feelings, Saya has six feelings—surprise, fear, dislike, anger, happiness and sadness. She can also say simple phrases such as “Thank you” and “Sorry”. “Robots that look like humans have an important influence on children and older people,” Hiroshi Kobayashi, Saya’s developer, said. Saya was first invented as a receptionist (接待员) robot in 2009. Later, she was tested in a real classroom with many fifth and sixth grade students in Tokyo. “Although she still can’t do much more than calling out students’ names and shouting ‘Be quiet’, the children had great fun,” Kobayashi says. “They were very happy when Saya called out their names.” Ronald C.Arkin, a scientist, says people should do more study on the interaction (互动) between humans and robots before people depend on (依靠) robots too much. Kobayashi says, “Saya is just meant to help people, and we should not have too much hope for her ability. She has no thought and no ability to learn. She is just a tool.” 31. Saya is a _________. A.

He spent all his free time in his four glasshouses and grew flowers of every color with long and difficult names for competitions. He tried to grow a rose of a new color to win the silver cup for the Rose of the Year. Mr. Flowers’ glasshouses were very close to a middle school. Boys were often tempted (引诱) to throw a stone or two at one of Mr. Flowers’ glasshouses. So Mr. Flowers did his best to be in or near his glasshouses at the beginning and end of the school day. But it was not always possible to be on watch at those times. Mr. Flowers tried many ways to protect his glass, but nothing was useful. He had been to school to tell the headmaster, but this had not done any good. He had tried to drive away the boys that threw stones into his glasshouses, but the boys could run faster than he could, and they laughed at him from far away. He had even picked up all the stones that he could find around his glasshouses, so that the boys would have nothing to throw, but they soon found others. At last Mr. Flowers had a good idea. He put up a large notice made of good, strong wood some meters away from the glasshouses. On it he had written the words: DO NOT THROW STONES AT THIS NOTICE. After this, Mr. Flowers had no further trouble. The boys were much more tempted to throw stones at the notice than at the glasshouses. 36. It was Mr. Flowers’ hope to _________. A. build glasshouses in his free time B. grow the Rose of the Year in a silver cup C. win a silver cup for growing a rose of a new color D. grow a rose with the longest name 37.

Dolphins talk to one another with whistles (口哨) and calls. Scientists have known that the animals also use unusual whistles to name each other. They had thought that dolphins only heard each other’s voices. However, the scientists didn’t know that dolphins listen for their names too. To test this idea, the researchers caught 14 dolphins and recorded their name calls. The scientists then copied each dolphin’s voice. When the changed recordings were played, the dolphins replied strongly to the names of their relatives and close group members. They paid no attention to the names of dolphins they did not know. Dolphins live in large groups that grow and change. Each dolphin’s unusual whistle helps it quickly find a friend or a family member, or call for help. Understanding their calls requires learning. It’s a skill that’s seen in very few animals, which include humans, elephants and bats. Elephants, for example, communicate with sounds. Their sounds can be heard by other elephants miles away. Dolphins, too, communicate with each other by making sounds like this. Elephants also communicate by moving their head, feet and trunk. In much the same way, dolphins communicate through their movements. They often touch each other to express friendship. Unlike dolphins, elephants also communicate through their great sense of smell. They can recognize other elephants through the smells they have. Why do dolphins and elephants share the gift of communication? Scientists think it may be because they are social and smart animals. Both have strong family relationship. Now, whether they also have nicknames is another question! 41. What have researchers found about dolphins recently? A. Dolphins know their own names. B. Dolphins only hear each other’s voices. C. Dolphins talk to one another not much like people. D. Dolphins know other animals’ names. 42. Just before the researchers recorded dolphins’ name calls, they ________. A. copied dolphins’ voice B. caught 14 dolphins C. trained the dolphins to whistle D. caught 4 dolphins 43. When a dolphin wants to express friendship, what will it do? A. It will call for help. B. It will turn its head. C. It will touch another dolphin. D. It will make special sounds. 44. What are the differences between dolphins and elephants in communication? A. Elephants can communicate by smell. B. Elephants can communicate by sound. C. Dolphins can communicate by movement. D. Elephants can communicate by taste. 45. What does the underlined word “recognize” mean in Chinese? A. 驱逐 B. 逃离 C. 触碰 D. 认出 【答案】41. A 42. B 43. C 44. A 45. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了海豚和大象的交流方式以及它们具有良好交流能力的原因。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“researchers have found that dolphins know their own names much like people.”可知，研究人员发现海豚知道自己的名字。故选A。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“To test this idea, the researchers caught 14 dolphins and recorded their name calls.”可知，研究人员在记录海豚的名字叫声之前，抓了14只海豚。故选B。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“They often touch each other to express friendship.”可知，海豚表示友谊时会互相触碰。故选C。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“Unlike dolphins, elephants also communicate through their great sense of smell.”可知，大象可以通过嗅觉进行交流，这是它们与海豚的区别。故选A。 【45题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“other elephants through the smells they have”可知，大象通过嗅觉识别其他大象，所以“recognize”在文中意思是“认出”。故选D。 第二节：阅读填空。（每小题1分，共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。 September 1st is a great day to pick up a pen and paper to write a letter to someone because it is World Letter Writing Day.

B In a class in Tokyo, a robot teacher called Saya called out the names of students, and smiled at them. Her funny face made the students laugh. However, the inventor says she is not going to take the place of human teachers. Unlike other robots without feelings, Saya has six feelings—surprise, fear, dislike, anger, happiness and sadness. She can also say simple phrases such as “Thank you” and “Sorry”. “Robots that look like humans have an important influence on children and older people,” Hiroshi Kobayashi, Saya’s developer, said. Saya was first invented as a receptionist (接待员) robot in 2009. Later, she was tested in a real classroom with many fifth and sixth grade students in Tokyo. “Although she still can’t do much more than calling out students’ names and shouting ‘Be quiet’, the children had great fun,” Kobayashi says. “They were very happy when Saya called out their names.” Ronald C.Arkin, a scientist, says people should do more study on the interaction (互动) between humans and robots before people depend on (依靠) robots too much. Kobayashi says, “Saya is just meant to help people, and we should not have too much hope for her ability. She has no thought and no ability to learn. She is just a tool.” 31. Saya is a _________. A. Japanese woman teacher B. Japanese girl C. robot teacher D. inventor 32. Saya’s first job is a _________. A. teacher B. receptionist C. student D. robot 33.

People will do better than robots on the interaction. B. Robots will do better than humans on the interaction. C. Robots have an important influence (影响) on humans. D. Saya will be the best teacher. 35. Which of the following is right? A. Saya is going to take the place of human teachers. B. Saya has seven feelings. C. Robots are important for us so we should depend on them more. D. Saya is just a tool, and just helps humans. C There was once a man called Mr. Flowers, and flowers were his only joy in life. He spent all his free time in his four glasshouses and grew flowers of every color with long and difficult names for competitions. He tried to grow a rose of a new color to win the silver cup for the Rose of the Year. Mr. Flowers’ glasshouses were very close to a middle school. Boys were often tempted (引诱) to throw a stone or two at one of Mr. Flowers’ glasshouses. So Mr. Flowers did his best to be in or near his glasshouses at the beginning and end of the school day. But it was not always possible to be on watch at those times. Mr. Flowers tried many ways to protect his glass, but nothing was useful. He had been to school to tell the headmaster, but this had not done any good. He had tried to drive away the boys that threw stones into his glasshouses, but the boys could run faster than he could, and they laughed at him from far away. He had even picked up all the stones that he could find around his glasshouses, so that the boys would have nothing to throw, but they soon found others. At last Mr. Flowers had a good idea. He put up a large notice made of good, strong wood some meters away from the glasshouses. On it he had written the words: DO NOT THROW STONES AT THIS NOTICE. After this, Mr. Flowers had no further trouble. The boys were much more tempted to throw stones at the notice than at the glasshouses. 36. It was Mr. Flowers’ hope to _________. A. build glasshouses in his free time B. grow the Rose of the Year in a silver cup C. win a silver cup for growing a rose of a new color D. grow a rose with the longest name 37. Boys were often tempted to _________. A. throw stones at Mr. Flowers’ glasshouses B. throw stones at Mr. Flowers C. be in Mr. Flowers’ glasshouses D. play with Mr. Flowers near his glasshouses 38. Mr. Flowers stayed in or near his glasshouses _________. A. when the boys were walking near them B. all the school days when there were no boys around C. where he could not be seen by the boys passing D. at the beginning and end of the school day 39. Mr. Flowers had tried to _________ to protect his glasshouses. A. be on watch in his free time B. ask the headmaster for help C. pick up all the stones around his garden D. do all the above 40. Mr. Flowers’ good idea was to _________. A. write some words on the glass B. put up a large notice to cover his glasshouses C. give the boys something else to throw stones at D. send for policemen D Recently, researchers have found that dolphins know their own names much like people. Dolphins talk to one another with whistles (口哨) and calls. Scientists have known that the animals also use unusual whistles to name each other. They had thought that dolphins only heard each other’s voices. However, the scientists didn’t know that dolphins listen for their names too. To test this idea, the researchers caught 14 dolphins and recorded their name calls. The scientists then copied each dolphin’s voice. When the changed recordings were played, the dolphins replied strongly to the names of their relatives and close group members. They paid no attention to the names of dolphins they did not know. Dolphins live in large groups that grow and change. Each dolphin’s unusual whistle helps it quickly find a friend or a family member, or call for help. Understanding their calls requires learning. It’s a skill that’s seen in very few animals, which include humans, elephants and bats. Elephants, for example, communicate with sounds. Their sounds can be heard by other elephants miles away. Dolphins, too, communicate with each other by making sounds like this. Elephants also communicate by moving their head feet and trunk. In much the same way, dolphins communicate through their movements. They often touch each other to express friendship. Unlike dolphins, elephants also communicate through their great sense of smell. They can recognize other elephants through the smells they have. Why do dolphins and elephants share the gift of communication? Scientists think it may be because they are social and smart animals. Both have strong family relationship. Now, whether they also have nicknames is another question! 41. What have researchers found about dolphins recently? A. Dolphins know their own names. B. Dolphins only hear each other’s voices. C. Dolphins talk to one another not much like people. D. Dolphins know other animals’ names. 42. Just before the researchers recorded dolphins’ name calls, they ________. A. copied dolphins’ voice B. caught 14 dolphins C. trained the dolphins to whistle D. caught 4 dolphins 43. When a dolphin wants to express friendship, what will it do? A. It will call for help. B. It will turn its head. C. It will touch another dolphin. D. It will make special sounds. 44. What are the differences between dolphins and elephants in communication? A. Elephants can communicate by smell. B. Elephants can communicate by sound. C. Dolphins can communicate by movement. D. Elephants can communicate by taste. 45. What does the underlined word “recognize” mean in Chinese? A. 驱逐 B. 逃离 C. 触碰 D. 认出 第二节：阅读填空。（每小题1分，共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。 September 1st is a great day to pick up a pen and paper to write a letter to someone because it is World Letter Writing Day.
