As an eighth-grade student at Eastwood Middle School, I suggest inviting Ms. Ellen Jackson for this important speech. While the PTA usually invites a local leader or business owner, I believe Ms. Jackson would be an excellent choice. Ms. Jackson is both a former student and a longtime teacher at Eastwood Middle School. Her strong connection with the school helps her share important lessons with students. Although she teaches Englısh, she is also skilled in history and math. When she helps students with their work, she covers any subject and makes sure students are involved. She shows them how to find answers on their own, making hard ideas easy to understand. Her patient, step-by-step way of explaining things ensures all students understand the material well. Ms. Jackson is more than just a great teacher. She supports students in all activities. She attends concerts and sports events and helps out on school trips, including those in the summer. Her involvement in these activities shows how much she cares about the students’ growth and happiness. As a speaker, Ms. Jackson communicates clearly and effectively. She knows how to say things in a way that is both elegant and easy to understand. She earns students’ respect and encourages them to think and act on their own. Her approach makes her a popular teacher who is tough but fair. Just as she does when helping with schoolwork, Ms. Jackson does not simply tell students what to do. Instead, she helps them make their own decisions. The eighth-grade awards ceremony is a big event for Eastwood Middle School students. It marks the end of our days in middle school and the promise of a bright future. The speaker should be someone who understands both where the students have been and where they are going. Ms. Jackson has helped every student in this school. I hope you will consider inviting her to speak at this year’s ceremony. Sincerely, Nick Ryan 36. What is probably Ms. Wells? A. A local leader. B.

Jane Dinscore, her sister and her niece were bitten on the hands while trying to feed them. “I think they started doing a little bit more research and thinking. These don’t look like standard housecats. Maybe we should call somebody. Thankfully, they did. San Antonio Animal Care Services (ACS) spokeswoman Lisa Norwood told local TV station KENS 5 on Monday. However, since the news broke on Monday, Jane Dinscore has changed her story. Initially, she told authorities she found the kittens in a San Antonio alley. Now, she says she got them from her brother, James Dinscore, in rural Atascosa County. She insists she believed the kittens were pets. She explains that she took them home and contacted ACS after they started biting her and her family. She admits she at first lied about their origin to protect her brother. ACS and Texas State Parks and Wildlife are working together to determine if the situation deserves any criminal charges for disturbing wildlife, according to USA Today. The animals are now under the care of Wildlife Rescue Rehabilitation in San Antonio. The group hopes to eventually release the bobcats in a safe area. In general, wild animals should be left in the wild. If you suspect a problem with a wild animal or believe you have found one that’s sick, injured or abandoned, call a local wildlife center or animal control organization. And if you believe an animal, you’ve found is a lost pet, you may take it to an animal shelter or a rescue group. 41. What happened to Jane Dinscore? A. She was attacked by the kittens. B.

D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了德克萨斯州的一名妇女说她把两只小猫带回家，却发现它们是山猫，最终山猫被野生动物救援康复中心接收，照顾，计划放归野外。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Jane Dinscore, her sister and her niece were bitten on the hands while trying to feed them. (简·丁斯克，她的妹妹和侄女在试图喂它们的时候被咬伤了手。)”可知，在喂猫的时候Jane Dinscore被咬伤了手，即被猫攻击了。故选A。 【42题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“She admits she at first lied about their origin to protect her brother. (她承认，为了保护哥哥，她一开始对它们的来历撒了谎。)”；划线词后文“she told authorities she found the kittens in a San Antonio alley. (她告诉当局，她在圣安东尼奥的一条小巷里发现了这些小猫。)”以及“Now, she says she got them from her brother, James Dinscore, in rural Atascosa County. (现在，她说她是从阿塔斯科萨县农村的哥哥詹姆斯·丁斯克那里得到的。)”可知，她一开始的说法是在圣安东尼奥的一条小巷里发现了这些小猫，现在又说是从哥哥那里得到猫的，一开始撒了谎。故划线词意思是“最初，一开始”。故选B。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“She admits she at first lied about their origin to protect her brother.(她承认，为了保护哥哥，她一开始对它们的来历撒了谎)”可知，她刚开始的时候撒谎，是考虑到哥哥的利益，也就是不想给她哥哥找麻烦。故选C。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“The group hopes to eventually release the bobcats in a safe area. (该组织希望最终将山猫释放到一个安全的区域。)”可知，这个组织希望最后将山猫放归至安全的地方，即放归野外。故选A。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In general, wild animals should be left in the wild. If you suspect a problem with a wild animal or believe you have found one that’s sick, injured or abandoned, call a local wildlife center or animal control organization. And if you believe an animal, you’ve found is a lost pet, you may take it to an animal shelter or a rescue group. (一般来说，野生动物应该留在野外。如果你怀疑野生动物有问题，或者你认为你发现了一只生病、受伤或被遗弃的动物，打电话给当地的野生动物中心或动物控制组织。如果你相信你找到的动物是一只走失的宠物，你可以把它带到动物收容所或救援组织。)”可知，最后主要是告诉人们野生动物应该生存在野外不被打扰，并告诉人们遇到了野生动物或宠物该如何处理，所以最后一段的目的是提供建议。故选D。 C In the Hollywood movie The Martian, actor Matt Damon plays an astronaut who grows food on Mars (火星) to survive alone on the red planet. After seeing the movie, Washington State University physicist Michael Allen and University of Idaho food scientist Helen Joyner decided to carry out a case study helping students figure out how to farm on Mars. In the case study, students had to imagine they were mining on Mars and decide how to feed themselves there before starting on the journey. They got advice from Allen and Joyner on how to select crops and take the challenges of growing crops over long periods on Mars. Students used a scoring system to select three foods to plant on Mars. Allen found the results impressive: among 30 students, “no two people have ever gotten the same answer”, he said. Human travelers to Mars will likely have to make use of resources on the planet rather than take everything they need with them on a spaceship. This means farming their own food on another planet, one that has a very different ecosystem (生态系统) from Earth’s. One challenge for those who would like to live on Mars is the fact that there can be no farming tools. Like real astronauts, students taking part in the study cannot take farming tools with them. As Joyner put it to his student astronauts, “You are starting with nothing.” Besides, students also have to deal with a very limited choice of diet. “If you had to eat a single food for the rest of your life, could you do it?” Joyner asked. But Allen believes the case study is about more than farming and eating on the Red Planet. “I’m not teaching about growing food on Mars,” Allen said, “I’m teaching about living with choices. I’m teaching about problem solving.” 46. What made Michael Allen and Helen Joyner carry out the case study? A. A trip. B. A book. C. A movie. D. A lecture. 47. In the case study, students have to ______. A. start with everything B. try different tools C. watch the movie D. select three foods 48. What might be the challenge for people living on Mars? A. They have a limited choice of diet. B. They have a lot of farming tools. C. They have to take part in the study. D. They have to select crops on Mars. 49. Michael Allen thinks that the case study teaches the students ______. A. how to look for foods on Mars B. to know more about Earth C. how to solve problems D. to learn about gardening 50. The passage is mainly about ______. A. a research on how to farm on Mars B. a Hollywood movie The Martian C. how to survive alone on Earth D. how to design a scoring system 【答案】46. C 47. D 48. A 49. C 50. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家在好莱坞电影《火星救援》启发下，进行了案例研究，帮助学生弄清楚如何在火星上耕种。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“After seeing the movie, Washington State University physicist Michael Allen and University of Idaho food scientist Helen Joyner decided to carry out a case study helping students figure out how to farm on Mars.(看完这部电影，华盛顿州立大学的物理学家迈克尔·艾伦和爱达荷大学的食品科学家海伦·乔伊纳决定开展一个案例研究，帮助学生们弄清楚如何在火星上耕种)”可知，科学家是在好莱坞电影的启发下进行了案例研究。故选C项。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Students used a scoring system to select three foods to plant on Mars.(学生们使用评分系统选择三种食物在火星上种植)”可知，在该研究中，学生需要选择三种食物在火星上种植。故选D项。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段第一句“One challenge for those who would like to live on Mars is the fact that there can be no farming tools.(对于那些想在火星上生活的人来说，一个挑战是火星上可能没有农具)”及第四句“Besides, students also have to deal with a very limited choice of diet.(此外，学生还必须面对非常有限的饮食选择)”可知，在火星生活的挑战一方面是没有农具，另一方面是食物选择有限。故选A项。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段最后一句“I’m teaching about problem solving.(我正在教给学生的是如何解决问题)”可知，迈克尔·艾伦认为该研究教会了学生解决问题。故选C项。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段第一句“After seeing the movie, Washington State University physicist Michael Allen and University of Idaho food scientist Helen Joyner decided to carry out a case study helping students figure out how to farm on Mars.(看完这部电影，华盛顿州立大学的物理学家迈克尔·艾伦和爱达荷大学的食品科学家海伦·乔伊纳决定开展一个案例研究，帮助学生们弄清楚如何在火星上耕种)”并结合下文学生参与研究的具体情况及火星生活面临的挑战可知，本文主要是关于如何在火星上耕种的案例研究。故选A项。 第II卷 第四部分：写作(共两节；满分30分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下列短文并回答问题。 “I don’t like it,” my daughter said, spitting her spinach (菠菜) onto her plate. “I want nuggets (消块).” Determined not to give in to picky eating, I stayed firm. Unhealthy food, I believed, should be for special occasions. “Mommy worked hard to make you a nutritious (有营养的) meal. Please eat it.” I begged, exhausted after her fourth refusal this week. “No!” she shouted, tossing her food on the floor. “My friends get whatever they want for dinner. I hate you!” I felt like a failure as a parent. Taking a deep breath, I gave her a serious look. “Come on, you know the rule.”“Yes, I should try everything three times,” she replied, rolling her eyes. “That’s right,” I said kindly. “So two more bites.” My mother had a rule: try every food three times. The first time to try it, the second to get over the first reaction, and the third to see if you really didn’t like it. If I still hated it, she wouldn’t make me eat it again. This approach worked for me, except with liver and bananas. I used the same rule with my daughter. A smile appeared on my face as I watched her swallow her second bite of spinach and then open her mouth for the third. She ate her final bite, and my thoughts wandered to how the“three times rule” had impacted my life. This rule gave me the courage to face fears, from public speaking to career changes. My life has been fuller because of it. If I hadn’t tried everything three times, I wouldn’t be a writer today. After two rejections, I tried a third time and have been happily writing ever since. My daughter, once a picky eater, is now a vegetarian who loves spinach. 51. Why did the author insist on her daughter eating spinach? (no more than 10 words) _____________________________________________________ 52. What does the underlined word “tossing” mean in Paragraph Two? (One word) _____________________________________________________ 53. What was the mother’s rule for trying new food? (no more than 5 words) _____________________________________________________ 54. How did the “three times rule” affect the author’s life? (no more than 15 words) _____________________________________________________ 55. Have you used the “three times rule” in your life? Please give an example. (no more than 20 words) _____________________________________________________ 【答案】51. Because it is nutritious. 52. Throwing. 53. Try every food three times. 54. It gave her courage to face fears and helped her become a writer. 55. Yes. I didn’t like running at first, but after trying three times, I liked running. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了当面对不爱吃菠菜的女儿时，作为母亲的作者使用了自己独特的“三次法则”。 【51题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段中“Unhealthy food, I believed, should be for special occasions. “Mommy worked hard to make you a nutritious (有营养的) meal. Please eat it.”(我认为，不健康的食物应该适合特殊场合。“妈妈很辛苦才给你做了一顿有营养的饭菜。请吃掉它。”)”可知，作者坚持让女儿吃菠菜，是因为菠菜有营养，故填Because it is nutritious. 【52题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据划线单词所在句子““No!” she shouted, tossing  her food on the floor.(“不！”她喊道，把食物tossing地板上)”可知，女儿拒绝吃菠菜，很生气，由此推知，将食物扔在地板上，划线单词意为“扔”，故填Throwing。 53题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段中“My mother had a rule: try every food three times. (我妈妈有一个规矩：每种食物都尝试三遍)”可知，母亲尝试新食物的规则是：每种食物都尝试三遍。故填Try every food three times. 【54题详解】 考查细节理解。根据最后一段中“This rule gave me the courage to face fears, from public speaking to career changes. My life has been fuller because of it. If I hadn’t tried everything three times, I wouldn’t be a writer today. (这条规则让我有勇气面对恐惧，从公开演讲到职业转变。我的生活因此变得更加充实。如果我没有把所有事情都尝试三遍，我今天就不会成为一名作家)”可知，这条规则让作者有勇气面对恐惧，并成为一名作家，故填It gave her courage to face fears and helped her become a writer. 【55题详解】 开放性试题。言之有理即可，注意词数限制。问题是：你在生活中运用过“三次法则”吗？请举个例子。可以回答为：是的。我原来不喜欢跑步，但是在尝试三遍后开始喜欢上跑步。故填Yes. I didn’t like running at first, but after trying three times, I liked running. 第二节：书面表达(满分20分) 56. 假如你是光明中学学生李津。你校于上周三下午举办了英语节活动。请你按照以下要点给你校英语报写一篇活动报道： 1.活动目的； 2.活动内容； 3.活动反响。 要求： 1.短文内容不少于100词； 2.开头已为你写好，不计入词数； 3.可适当发挥，以使行文连贯。 Last Wednesday afternoon, our school, Guangming Middle School, held an English Festival. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Last Wednesday afternoon, our school, Guangming Middle School, held an English Festival.

As an eighth-grade student at Eastwood Middle School, I suggest inviting Ms. Ellen Jackson for this important speech. While the PTA usually invites a local leader or business owner, I believe Ms. Jackson would be an excellent choice. Ms. Jackson is both a former student and a longtime teacher at Eastwood Middle School. Her strong connection with the school helps her share important lessons with students. Although she teaches Englısh, she is also skilled in history and math. When she helps students with their work, she covers any subject and makes sure students are involved. She shows them how to find answers on their own, making hard ideas easy to understand. Her patient, step-by-step way of explaining things ensures all students understand the material well. Ms. Jackson is more than just a great teacher. She supports students in all activities. She attends concerts and sports events and helps out on school trips, including those in the summer. Her involvement in these activities shows how much she cares about the students’ growth and happiness. As a speaker, Ms. Jackson communicates clearly and effectively. She knows how to say things in a way that is both elegant and easy to understand. She earns students’ respect and encourages them to think and act on their own. Her approach makes her a popular teacher who is tough but fair. Just as she does when helping with schoolwork, Ms. Jackson does not simply tell students what to do. Instead, she helps them make their own decisions. The eighth-grade awards ceremony is a big event for Eastwood Middle School students. It marks the end of our days in middle school and the promise of a bright future. The speaker should be someone who understands both where the students have been and where they are going. Ms. Jackson has helped every student in this school. I hope you will consider inviting her to speak at this year’s ceremony. Sincerely, Nick Ryan 36. What is probably Ms. Wells? A. A local leader. B.

Jane Dinscore, her sister and her niece were bitten on the hands while trying to feed them. “I think they started doing a little bit more research and thinking. These don’t look like standard housecats. Maybe we should call somebody. Thankfully, they did. San Antonio Animal Care Services (ACS) spokeswoman Lisa Norwood told local TV station KENS 5 on Monday. However, since the news broke on Monday, Jane Dinscore has changed her story. Initially, she told authorities she found the kittens in a San Antonio alley. Now, she says she got them from her brother, James Dinscore, in rural Atascosa County. She insists she believed the kittens were pets. She explains that she took them home and contacted ACS after they started biting her and her family. She admits she at first lied about their origin to protect her brother. ACS and Texas State Parks and Wildlife are working together to determine if the situation deserves any criminal charges for disturbing wildlife, according to USA Today. The animals are now under the care of Wildlife Rescue Rehabilitation in San Antonio. The group hopes to eventually release the bobcats in a safe area. In general, wild animals should be left in the wild. If you suspect a problem with a wild animal or believe you have found one that’s sick, injured or abandoned, call a local wildlife center or animal control organization. And if you believe an animal, you’ve found is a lost pet, you may take it to an animal shelter or a rescue group. 41. What happened to Jane Dinscore? A. She was attacked by the kittens. B. She was interviewed by KENS 5. C. She was praised for rescuing wildlife. D. She was forced to live in Atascosa County. 42. What does the underlined word “initially” mean? A. Finally. B. At first. C. Recently. D. Just now. 43. Why did Jane Dinscore tell a lie in the beginning? A. She was sure her kittens were housecats. B. She was told to keep everything a secret. C. She was unwilling to cause her brother trouble. D. She was afraid her kittens would be taken away. 44. How will Wildlife Rescue Rehabilitation in San Antonio deal with the bobcats? A. Set them free in the wild. B. Send them to a pet shelter. C. Help them find their mother. D. Raise them until they find new homes. 45. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the last paragraph? A. To make readers interested. B. To invite comments. C. To guess what will happen D. To provide suggestions. C In the Hollywood movie The Martian, actor Matt Damon plays an astronaut who grows food on Mars (火星) to survive alone on the red planet. After seeing the movie, Washington State University physicist Michael Allen and University of Idaho food scientist Helen Joyner decided to carry out a case study helping students figure out how to farm on Mars. In the case study, students had to imagine they were mining on Mars and decide how to feed themselves there before starting on the journey. They got advice from Allen and Joyner on how to select crops and take the challenges of growing crops over long periods on Mars. Students used a scoring system to select three foods to plant on Mars. Allen found the results impressive: among 30 students, “no two people have ever gotten the same answer”, he said. Human travelers to Mars will likely have to make use of resources on the planet rather than take everything they need with them on a spaceship. This means farming their own food on another planet, one that has a very different ecosystem (生态系统) from Earth’s. One challenge for those who would like to live on Mars is the fact that there can be no farming tools. Like real astronauts, students taking part in the study cannot take farming tools with them. As Joyner put it to his student astronauts, “You are starting with nothing.” Besides, students also have to deal with a very limited choice of diet. “If you had to eat a single food for the rest of your life, could you do it?” Joyner asked. But Allen believes the case study is about more than farming and eating on the Red Planet. “I’m not teaching about growing food on Mars,” Allen said, “I’m teaching about living with choices.

Unhealthy food, I believed, should be for special occasions. “Mommy worked hard to make you a nutritious (有营养的) meal. Please eat it.” I begged, exhausted after her fourth refusal this week. “No!” she shouted, tossing her food on the floor. “My friends get whatever they want for dinner. I hate you!” I felt like a failure as a parent. Taking a deep breath, I gave her a serious look. “Come on, you know the rule.”“Yes, I should try everything three times,” she replied, rolling her eyes. “That’s right,” I said kindly. “So two more bites.” My mother had a rule: try every food three times. The first time to try it, the second to get over the first reaction, and the third to see if you really didn’t like it. If I still hated it, she wouldn’t make me eat it again. This approach worked for me, except with liver and bananas. I used the same rule with my daughter. A smile appeared on my face as I watched her swallow her second bite of spinach and then open her mouth for the third. She ate her final bite, and my thoughts wandered to how the“three times rule” had impacted my life. This rule gave me the courage to face fears, from public speaking to career changes. My life has been fuller because of it. If I hadn’t tried everything three times, I wouldn’t be a writer today. After two rejections, I tried a third time and have been happily writing ever since. My daughter, once a picky eater, is now a vegetarian who loves spinach. 51. Why did the author insist on her daughter eating spinach?
