第一节 阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分, 满分30分)
A
①Can animals talk? It is true that they are not able to use words like ours, but most of them can talk in their own way.
②When the cat is happy and pleased, how does she show it? She purrs, and this is her way of saying. “I am quite happy now.” If she is unhappy, or in pain, or hungry, she mews. If she is angry, she sets up her back and moves her tail from side to side. If she is treated (对待) in a way she does not like, her tail goes straight up in the air, and she walks out of the room.
③If your dog is pleased, he puts back his ears, waves his tail, and seems to smile. If he is angry, he growls (咆哮), shows his teeth, puts up his tail and the hair along his back and neck, walks around slowly, and makes himself look very fierce. This is the dog’s way of saying. “I am mad, I have a mind to bite you.”
④When a hen sees a dog coming near her chickens, have you not noticed how she waves her wings, raises her tail, and rushes to the dog? This is her way of saying. “Be off, or I will peck you with my hard beak (喙).” If she sees a hawk, she makes a strange noise, and her chickens at once run away and hide themselves. They understand their mother to say. “Quick, get out of sight, dears! There is danger near.” When she finds some nice food, she makes another kind of noise. The chickens know quite well what it means, and run at once to share the food their mother has found for them.
⑤In such ways as these, animals make themselves understood almost as well as if they could talk like humans. They tell their feelings to one another by acts and by sounds just as we do by words.

Do you know the numbers 0-9 well? They are numbers in Arabic numerals (阿拉伯数字). People use them to mark numbers now. But it’s not the only number system that people use.
About 2, 500 years ago, people in Rome used their hands to count. In Roman numerals, one finger means 1, two fingers mean 2, three fingers mean 3, four fingers means 4. If you want to say five, you can keep your four fingers close on one side and your thumb on the other side. Make both of your hands be five, then you’ll have ten. So in Rome, I, II, III, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X. Also, “L”means fifty, “C” means one hundred, “D” means five hundred and “M” means one thousand. But there is no zero in Rome numerals. Today, few people use them because they are difficult to write and count. But we can still see them on some watches and clocks.
Today, most people use the Arabic numerals. They are easy to remember and write. They help people to count things every day. In fact, Indians first created and used the Arabic numerals.

46.(n)umber 47.(s)pend 48.(p)opular 49.(a)ddition 50.(t)ouch
【导语】本文主要分析了青少年上网的原因。
46.句意:这是世界上用户数量最多的。根据“more than 1 billion Internet users”可知,此空表达的是数量。“the number of”表示“……的数量”。故填(n)umber。
47.句意:他们每周花大约13个小时上网。根据“13 hours on”可知,是花费时间,spend time on sth“在某事上花费时间”。此句为一般现在时,“they”为复数。故填 (s)pend。
48.句意:互联网上关于科学和历史等不同学科的一些有用的课程是受欢迎的。根据“Many students like them and learn a lot”可知,表示课程是“受欢迎的”。故填 (p)opular。
49.句意:此外,学生们还可以使用互联网写信和发电子邮件给住在离他们很远的朋友。根据“send emails to their friends”可知,这是学生使用互联网的另外一个原因。“in addition”表示“此外,而且”。故填addition。
50.句意:此外,学生们还可以使用互联网写信和发电子邮件与住在离他们很远的朋友保持联系。根据“use the Internet”可知,讲的是与朋友的联系方式。keep in touch with “保持联系”。故填(t)ouch。
51. was born on
【详解】根据中英文对比可知,空格处缺少“出生于”的英文表达以及具体日期前的介词。“出生于”可以用“be born”表示,而具体日期 “November 7th, 1979” 前要用介词“on”。句子的时态为一般过去时,且主语 “My mother”是第三人称单数,所以be动词用 was。故填was;born;on。
52. How surprised
【详解】根据中英文对照可知,此处是感叹句,surprised“感到惊喜的”,形容词,符合结构:How+形容词+主语+谓语。故填How;surprised。
53. keep in touch with
【详解】对比中英文可知,此处缺少“保持联系”的翻译,英文表达为keep in touch with sb;used to do sth“过去常常做某事”,所以第一空填动词原形,故填keep;in;touch;with。
54. looking forward to taking
【详解】期待做某事:look forward to doing sth.,此处用动词的现在分词和前面的be动词构成现在进行时;参加:take part in。故填looking;forward;to;taking。
55. as well as
【详解】根据中英文对照可知,空处缺少了“和……一样好”,英文表达为as well as,修饰动词sing用副词well。故填as;well;as。
56.例文

第一节 阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分, 满分30分)
A
①Can animals talk? It is true that they are not able to use words like ours, but most of them can talk in their own way.
②When the cat is happy and pleased, how does she show it? She purrs, and this is her way of saying. “I am quite happy now.” If she is unhappy, or in pain, or hungry, she mews. If she is angry, she sets up her back and moves her tail from side to side. If she is treated (对待) in a way she does not like, her tail goes straight up in the air, and she walks out of the room.
③If your dog is pleased, he puts back his ears, waves his tail, and seems to smile. If he is angry, he growls (咆哮), shows his teeth, puts up his tail and the hair along his back and neck, walks around slowly, and makes himself look very fierce. This is the dog’s way of saying. “I am mad, I have a mind to bite you.”
④When a hen sees a dog coming near her chickens, have you not noticed how she waves her wings, raises her tail, and rushes to the dog? This is her way of saying. “Be off, or I will peck you with my hard beak (喙).” If she sees a hawk, she makes a strange noise, and her chickens at once run away and hide themselves. They understand their mother to say. “Quick, get out of sight, dears! There is danger near.” When she finds some nice food, she makes another kind of noise. The chickens know quite well what it means, and run at once to share the food their mother has found for them.
⑤In such ways as these, animals make themselves understood almost as well as if they could talk like humans. They tell their feelings to one another by acts and by sounds just as we do by words.

Do you know the numbers 0-9 well? They are numbers in Arabic numerals (阿拉伯数字). People use them to mark numbers now. But it’s not the only number system that people use.
About 2, 500 years ago, people in Rome used their hands to count. In Roman numerals, one finger means 1, two fingers mean 2, three fingers mean 3, four fingers means 4.

So in Rome, I, II, III, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X. Also, “L”means fifty, “C” means one hundred, “D” means five hundred and “M” means one thousand. But there is no zero in Rome numerals.
