A. keep；be lent B. borrow；lend C. lend；be borrowed D. have；borrow 【答案】A 【解析】 【分析】 【详解】句意：——你的字典我能保存多长时间？——一周，但是你千万不要把它借给其他人。 考查动词辨析。keep保存，保持，是延续性动词；borrow借，是瞬间性动词，不能和一段时间搭配使用；lend借给，瞬间性动词；have拥有。根据句意可知，第一句话中How long 表示一段时间，要与延续性动词一起连用，故B和C不对；第二句话表示借出，故D不对，选A。 10. —Could I copy your homework?

He was able to walk around looking at the lions, monkeys, bears and other circus animals. As he was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped. He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was clear that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not. He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and-didn’t try to get away. “Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller, we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they still believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free.” “How could it be?” said the man. These animals could at any time break free from ropes. But because they were always stuck right where they were, they believed they couldn’t. Just like the poor elephants, how many of us go through life believing that we cannot do something, just because we failed at it once before? Failing is part of learning. 39. Where were the animals kept? A. In the circus. B. In the zoo. C. In the forest. D. In the park. 40. What does the underlined phrase “break away” mean? A. 击败 B. 打破 C. 挣脱 D. 折断 41. How were the elephants held? A. By a strong rope. B. In cages C. With chains. D. By a small rope. 42. What can we learn from the passage? A. Well begun is half done. B. The early bird catches the worm. C. We should never give up. D. One tree can’t make a forest. 【答案】39. A 40. C 41. D 42. C 【解析】 【导语】本文通过描述大象因从小被绳子束缚而失去挣脱信心的故事，揭示了人们常因过去的失败而低估自己能力的道理。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据“A number of years ago, a man went to visit a circus (马戏团) in New York. He was able to walk around looking at the lions, monkeys, bears and other circus animals.”可知，动物们被关在马戏团里。故选A。 【40题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“ ... huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was clear that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their ropes ...”可知，巨大的大象被细小的绳子栓住了前腿，没有链子，没有笼子，很显然大象可以在任何时候挣脱绳子；“break away”表示“挣脱”。故选C。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据“He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg.”可知，他发现这些巨大的大象被一根小绳子拴在它们的前腿上。故选D。 【42题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后两段可知，作者认为我们很多人就像可怜的大象一样，就因为之前一次的失败就放弃了再去尝试。事实上，失败也是学习的一部分。选项C“我们不应该放弃。”符合文章主旨。故选C。 C At my primary school, I was one of the smartest kids there. I never studied, but always got perfect scores. I thought I was born clever. At least I believed so. I was also a prodigy in music according to myself. I could sing better than almost everyone else in my school. I was pretty sure that once I got to sixth grade, everyone would be surprised by me. But actually, they weren’t. When I arrived at my new class. I couldn’t wait to show everyone what I could do. However, there was always someone else who could do them better. My grades began to suffer. More talented (有天资的) girls often sang solo (独唱). I believed I wasn’t smart. I believed I wasn’t talented. I believed I was a failure. Over the next two years, I had to work very hard. Every prize for the singing competition was given to me for hard work and effort. Grades were still very low but improving little by little. I worked really hard. However, I was never the best at everything. I haven’t realized until recently that I really don’t have to be the best at everything. I was too hard on myself. In fact, when I did badly in a test, my classmates never laughed at me. No one is perfect. There will probably always be someone better than me at something. Anyway, there are about seven billion people in this world. I will never be the number one at everything, and that’s really okay. 43. What does “a prodigy” probably mean in English? A. A smart kid. B. A crazy fan. C. A common child. D. A lazy girl. 44. What happened to the writer during the next two years? A. She won many prizes without any effort. B. She found the best way to become perfect. C. She gave up trying because of the low scores. D. She failed to be perfect though she worked hard. 45. What has the writer realized recently? A. There is no success without effort. B. Being talented is the key to success. C. Don’t expect too much of yourself. D. It’s not necessary to care about the result. 【答案】43. A 44. D 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者从自认为天才到接受自己并不需要在所有事情上都做到最好的心路历程。 【43题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“I could sing better than almost everyone else in my school”可知，作者认为自己几乎比学校里所有人都唱得好，由此推知作者认为自己在音乐方面是一个天才；即“a prodigy”表示“一个天才”，与A选项同义。故选A。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Over the next two years, ...I worked really hard. However, I was never the best at everything.”可知，接下来的两年，虽然作者很努力，但她并没达到完美的程度。故选D。 【45题详解】 细节理解题。根据“I haven’t realized until recently that I really don’t have to be the best at everything.

Perhaps you have complained (抱怨) about it because you thought it took you much playtime. But now you’d better thank your parents for their time and money spent on your musical training. A recent study suggests music lessons can make children have better memories than their peers (同龄人) . The Canadian study showed that after one year of musical training, children did better on a memory test than those who didn’t take music lessons. The researchers made the children aged between 4 and 6 into two groups—one group of children took music lessons outside school, and the other didn’t take any musical training. In one year, they took four tests in different times. The results showed brain development changes at least every four months. The children taking music lessons not only did better in musical listening but also made faster progress in other ways, such as reading, writing, math and IQ. People say music is the good medicine for a broken heart. Now it seems music can also help us to improve our memories. We are sure to find more and more in the wonderful world of music. 46.

Each year, tornadoes kill many people. The storms often carry homes, cars and trees from one place to another. And they can also destroy anything when they pass by. A tornado comes from a rainstorm in the sky down to the ground. It is big at the top and small at the bottom. A tornado appears when winds in different directions meet in the cloud and begin to turn in circles. People can see tornadoes almost everywhere in the world. But most happen from late winter to mid- summer. There is a second high season in November. During spring warm air moves north and mixes with the cold air left from winter. In November, the opposite (相反的) happens. Cold air moves south and mixes with the cold air left from winter. Tornadoes always come suddenly. Weather scientists have done something to predict (预测) tornadoes. But the storms often move too fast for people to protect themselves. Last year, tornadoes killed more than one hundred people in United States. Scientists say the best place to be in is a small room, without windows, in the middle the lowest part of a building when tornadoes come. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 50.

What are additives? They are put into foods to give them color and taste, to stop them going bad and so on. But doctors say that some additives can be very bad for our health. Now let’s look at how additives can be bad for our health. For example, a little English girl called Sally Jones is two years old and quite ordinary (普通的) . But when she was younger, she never went to sleep at night. She never got tired. Her parents were very worried. Finally, Sally’s parents took her to a special doctor. The doctor said that she must never eat food with additives in it. He was sure that the additives had a very bad effect on her body, and made her too active. He was quite correct. As soon as Sally started to eat foods with no additives, she began to sleep well at night. Now she is the same as other little girls, except that she can’t eat many foods that other children love, such as ice creams, because they have additives in them. 53. What are the functions (功能) of the additives? (20词以内) _________________________________________ 54. What happened to Sally when she stopped eating the foods with additives? (10词以内) _________________________________________ 55. Why can’t Sally eat ice creams? (10词以内) _________________________________________ 【答案】53. To give foods color and taste, to stop them going bad and so on. 54 She began to sleep well at night. 55. Because they have additives in them. 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了食品添加剂对健康的潜在危害，并通过一个小女孩的案例说明其可能导致过度活跃等问题。 【53题详解】 根据“They are put into foods to give them color and taste, to stop them going bad and so on”可知，添加剂被放入食物中，赋予食物颜色和味道，防止它们变坏等等。故填To give foods color and taste, to stop them going bad and so on. 【54题详解】 根据“As soon as Sally started to eat foods with no additives, she began to sleep well at night.”可知，她停止吃含添加剂的食物后，晚上开始睡得很香。故填She began to sleep well at night. 【55题详解】 根据“she can’t eat many foods that other children love, such as ice creams, because they have additives in them.”可知，因为冰淇淋里面有添加剂，所以她不能吃。故填Because they have additives in them. 第四部分 写（共两大题，满分25分） Ⅸ. 单词拼写（共5小题) 56.

B A number of years ago, a man went to visit a circus (马戏团) in New York. He was able to walk around looking at the lions, monkeys, bears and other circus animals. As he was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped. He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was clear that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not. He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and-didn’t try to get away. “Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller, we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they still believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free.” “How could it be?” said the man. These animals could at any time break free from ropes. But because they were always stuck right where they were, they believed they couldn’t. Just like the poor elephants, how many of us go through life believing that we cannot do something, just because we failed at it once before? Failing is part of learning. 39. Where were the animals kept? A. In the circus. B. In the zoo. C. In the forest. D. In the park. 40. What does the underlined phrase “break away” mean? A. 击败 B. 打破 C. 挣脱 D. 折断 41. How were the elephants held? A. By a strong rope. B. In cages C. With chains. D. By a small rope. 42. What can we learn from the passage? A. Well begun is half done. B. The early bird catches the worm. C. We should never give up. D. One tree can’t make a forest. C At my primary school, I was one of the smartest kids there. I never studied, but always got perfect scores. I thought I was born clever. At least I believed so. I was also a prodigy in music according to myself. I could sing better than almost everyone else in my school. I was pretty sure that once I got to sixth grade, everyone would be surprised by me. But actually, they weren’t. When I arrived at my new class. I couldn’t wait to show everyone what I could do. However, there was always someone else who could do them better. My grades began to suffer. More talented (有天资的) girls often sang solo (独唱). I believed I wasn’t smart. I believed I wasn’t talented. I believed I was a failure. Over the next two years, I had to work very hard. Every prize for the singing competition was given to me for hard work and effort. Grades were still very low but improving little by little. I worked really hard. However, I was never the best at everything. I haven’t realized until recently that I really don’t have to be the best at everything. I was too hard on myself. In fact, when I did badly in a test, my classmates never laughed at me. No one is perfect. There will probably always be someone better than me at something. Anyway, there are about seven billion people in this world. I will never be the number one at everything, and that’s really okay. 43. What does “a prodigy” probably mean in English? A. A smart kid. B. A crazy fan. C. A common child. D. A lazy girl. 44. What happened to the writer during the next two years? A. She won many prizes without any effort. B. She found the best way to become perfect. C. She gave up trying because of the low scores. D. She failed to be perfect though she worked hard. 45. What has the writer realized recently? A There is no success without effort. B. Being talented is the key to success. C. Don’t expect too much of yourself. D. It’s not necessary to care about the result. D Do you have the experience of taking music lessons against your wishes? Perhaps you have complained (抱怨) about it because you thought it took you much playtime. But now you’d better thank your parents for their time and money spent on your musical training. A recent study suggests music lessons can make children have better memories than their peers (同龄人) . The Canadian study showed that after one year of musical training, children did better on a memory test than those who didn’t take music lessons. The researchers made the children aged between 4 and 6 into two groups—one group of children took music lessons outside school, and the other didn’t take any musical training. In one year, they took four tests in different times. The results showed brain development changes at least every four months. The children taking music lessons not only did better in musical listening but also made faster progress in other ways, such as reading, writing, math and IQ. People say music is the good medicine for a broken heart. Now it seems music can also help us to improve our memories. We are sure to find more and more in the wonderful world of music. 46. You’d better thank your parents for their time and money spent on your musical training because ________. A. you get well after you take music lessons B. you will make faster progress in every way C. music can help you to improve your memories D. you won’t be sick any more 47.

Music does us much good. C. What to find in wonderful music. D. Interest is important. E Tornadoes (龙卷风) are one of the worst weather events on earth. Each year, tornadoes kill many people. The storms often carry homes, cars and trees from one place to another. And they can also destroy anything when they pass by. A tornado comes from a rainstorm in the sky down to the ground. It is big at the top and small at the bottom. A tornado appears when winds in different directions meet in the cloud and begin to turn in circles. People can see tornadoes almost everywhere in the world. But most happen from late winter to mid- summer. There is a second high season in November. During spring warm air moves north and mixes with the cold air left from winter. In November, the opposite (相反的) happens. Cold air moves south and mixes with the cold air left from winter. Tornadoes always come suddenly. Weather scientists have done something to predict (预测) tornadoes. But the storms often move too fast for people to protect themselves. Last year, tornadoes killed more than one hundred people in United States. Scientists say the best place to be in is a small room, without windows, in the middle the lowest part of a building when tornadoes come. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 50.

What are additives? They are put into foods to give them color and taste, to stop them going bad and so on. But doctors say that some additives can be very bad for our health. Now let’s look at how additives can be bad for our health. For example, a little English girl called Sally Jones is two years old and quite ordinary (普通的) .

The doctor said that she must never eat food with additives in it. He was sure that the additives had a very bad effect on her body, and made her too active. He was quite correct. As soon as Sally started to eat foods with no additives, she began to sleep well at night. Now she is the same as other little girls, except that she can’t eat many foods that other children love, such as ice creams, because they have additives in them. 53.
