Rodney read the headline in the local newspaper: “Flamingo Flocks to South.” A rare bird had found its way to his small California town. It was a flamingo, the report said, a real one—not like the plastic (塑料的) one planted in Rodney’s neighbor’s yard. The town didn’t even have a zoo, so this news was really exciting. But where was the bird?
Only one man in town claimed (声称) to have seen the wild bird, in a wetland park of town. He described the flamingo’s pink feathers and said it stood about 3 feet tall. He also said the flamingo did not seem sick or hurt.
Rodney thought the story sounded suspicious (怀疑的), so he decided to go on a flamingo-finding adventure. He also decided to take his best friend, Paul, with him. “If we find it,” Rodney said, “we can write a report on protecting wild animals.” The boys took their boots, binoculars, and a camera. They packed some peanut butter sandwiches, too. Then they set out for the wetlands with great excitement.
The weather, however, had other plans. The dirt (泥) road was muddy because of the rain. With their boots sinking deep into the mud, reaching almost to their knees, Rodney and Paul trudged through mud and many water plants. They searched carefully for quite a long time and they were all tired, but they never found the flamingo. Finally, the sun began to set, and a cold wind cut through the boys’ jackets and they had nothing left to eat. Rodney and Paul had no choice but to go back home.
As they turned onto Paul’s dark street, Paul’s mom was waiting outside, looking worried. Paul dragged his feet up the driveway slowly. His mother put her arm on his shoulder, and then the two went inside.
Rodney continued down the street toward his house, past his neighbour’s yard and that plastic pink flamingo. “Great,” Rodney thought, “now they have a pair.” Out of the corner of his eye, Rodney saw something move.
31. How may the boys feel on their way back home?
A. Sorry. B. Afraid. C. Excited. D. Calm.
32. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. There were no real flamingos in this small town.
B. There were two real flamingos in his neighbour’s yard.
C. Rodney put another flamingo in his neighbor’s yard.
D. Rodney found the flamingo they had been looking for.
33. Which can be the best title of the story?
A. A Report on Protecting Flamingos B. A Hunt for Wild Flamingos
C. Two Boys’ Difficult Trip D. Flamingos’ Journey to the South
【答案】31. A 32. D 33. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了Rodney和Paul听说小镇来了野生火烈鸟后去寻找的经历。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据“They searched carefully for quite a long time and they were all tired, but they never found the flamingo.”可知,两个男孩找火烈鸟找了很久,历经艰难,最后没找到,并且他们很疲惫、饥饿,由此推知他们在回家路上是遗憾的。故选A。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Out of the corner of his eye, Rodney saw something move.”可知,Rodney在回家路上,眼角余光看到有东西在动;再根据前文一直围绕他们找火烈鸟展开,所以可推断出他找到了一直寻找的火烈鸟。故选D。
【33题详解】
最佳标题题。通读全文可知,主要讲述了Rodney和Paul听说小镇来了野生火烈鸟后去寻找的经历;结合选项,B选项“寻找野生火烈鸟”符合文意。故选B。

A tornado is a tower of spinning air. Tornadoes can be very dangerous. The cause of tornadoes is not fully known. They form during thunderstorms. Inside the stormy clouds, warm air rises and cool air falls. The warm and cool air can begin to spin. This spinning air can push out of the storm clouds as a funnel. When the funnel of spinning air touches the ground, it becomes a tornado.
There are three levels of tornadoes. Weak tornadoes have wind speeds that are below 160km/h. They last for less than ten minutes. They cause small damage like fallen tree branches. Strong tornadoes have wind speeds that are between 177km/h and 330km/h and can last about twenty minutes. These tornadoes can cause quite a bit of damage and can push cars and trains over. The most dangerous tornadoes are called violent tornadoes. They can last for longer than an hour and have wind speeds that are higher than 330km/h. These deadly tornadoes can lift houses and cars into the air.
Tornadoes and cyclones are very different. Tornadoes form on land and cyclones form on the ocean. Tornadoes can be a few kilometres wide. The biggest cyclones can be hundreds of kilometres across.
Some people set up a safe room in a basement. They get a radio, water, sleeping bags and extra food. They also keep their house and garden clean by getting rid of dead trees or weak fences. If a tornado alert is given, get your saferoom ready. Do not go outside or near windows. Hide under a large bed or table. Get out of your trailer or car. If you are outside, find flat ground. Lie down and protect your neck and head with your arms. Once the tornado is over, turn on the radio. Avoid any damaged areas and do not go near any fallen power lines.
34. What can we learn about tornadoes?
A. Tornadoes usually happen on sunny and windy days.
B. Tornadoes happen when the storm clouds touch the ground.
C. Tornadoes can be hundreds of kilometres across the land.
D. Tornadoes can take houses and cars into the air sometimes.
35. The following sentence can best be put at the beginning of _________. There are many different ways to prepare for a tornado.
A. Paragraph 1 B. Paragraph 2
C. Paragraph 3 D. Paragraph 4
36. The meaning of the underlined phrase “getting rid of” might be ________.
A throwing B. keeping C. counting D. recording
37. What’s the purpose of the article?
A. To introduce tornadoes to us. B. To show us the danger of tornadoes.
C. To tell the differences of natural disasters. D. To give us some tips to protect ourselves.

51. My mother usually ________ (ride) to work to keep fit every day.
【答案】rides
【解析】
【详解】句意:我妈妈通常每天骑车去上班以保持身体健康。ride“骑车”,结合“usually”可知,该句是一般现在时,且主语My mother是第三人称单数,所以动词要填三单形式。故填rides。
52. What a beautiful place! I hope I ________ (visit) it again in the future.
【答案】will visit
【解析】
【详解】句意:多么美丽的地方啊!我希望将来能再去参观。根据“I hope...”可知,该句是宾语从句,从句时态遵循“主现从不限”的原则,结合“in the future”可知,从句的时态是一般将来时,其结构为will+do。故填will visit。
53. The children ________ (do) their homework when the power went out.
【答案】were doing
【解析】
【详解】句意:停电时,孩子们正在做作业。结合“when the power went out.”可知,主句时态是过去进行时,其结构为was/were + doing,且主语“The children”为复数名词,所以be动词用were。故填were doing。
54. People should always follow traffic rules ________ (prevent) any accident.
【答案】to prevent
【解析】
【详解】句意:人们应该遵守交通规则,以防止发生事故。根据“People should always follow traffic rules ... any accident.”可知,遵守交通规则是为了防止事故的发生,用不定式表目的。故填to prevent。

56. ________ (not touch) the wet paint on the door. I don’t want to mess up the work.
【答案】Don’t touch
【解析】
【详解】句意:不要碰门上的湿漆。我不想弄坏这项工作。根据语境可知,考查祈使句的否定形式:Don’t+动词原形,touch“触碰”,动词,因此为Don’t touch。故填Don’t touch。
57. —Where is your mother, Tom?
—Oh, she ________ (tidy) the living room because her friends will come soon.
【答案】is tidying
【解析】
【详解】句意:——汤姆,你妈妈在哪儿?——哦,她正在整理客厅,因为她的朋友很快就要来了。根据“Where is your mother, Tom?”和“Oh, she ... the living room”可知,汤姆的妈妈正在整理课堂,时态应用现在进行时,结构为be doing;主语为she,be动词用is。故填is tidying。
六、阅读表达(本大题共10分, 每小题2分)
阅读下面短文,然后根据短文内容回答问题,每小题答案不超过7个词。
Tanghulu is a traditional snack from Northern China. People of all ages love it, especially kids.
It is usually made of haws (山楂), which are full of vitamin C. About 800 years ago, one of the emperor’s wives was sick and had a poor appetite. The doctor told her to eat 10 boiled haws with sugar before dinner. She felt better after two weeks. People heard about it and started making it too. They put haws on sticks, dipped them in hot sugary syrup (糖浆), and dried. The syrup made a hard and sweet shell around haws, like wearing a sugar jacket. They taste both sweet and sour at the same time.
Now people use many other fruits to make Tanghulu, such as cherry tomatoes, oranges, strawberries, blueberries, kiwis, bananas, or grapes. To make Tanghulu at home is super easy, and takes less than 20 minutes. Whether you’re looking for a quick snack for yourself or treating friends, Tanghulu is a good choice. Here are the steps:
a) Thread each fruit onto a bamboo stick. You can use the whole fruit or cut it into small pieces.
b) Make the syrup. Cook the sugar with water until it turns into large bubbles.
c) Carefully dip the fruit into the hot syrup, and then quickly put it into the ice water. This will help harden the syrup.

Rodney read the headline in the local newspaper: “Flamingo Flocks to South.” A rare bird had found its way to his small California town. It was a flamingo, the report said, a real one—not like the plastic (塑料的) one planted in Rodney’s neighbor’s yard. The town didn’t even have a zoo, so this news was really exciting. But where was the bird?
Only one man in town claimed (声称) to have seen the wild bird, in a wetland park of town. He described the flamingo’s pink feathers and said it stood about 3 feet tall. He also said the flamingo did not seem sick or hurt.
Rodney thought the story sounded suspicious (怀疑的), so he decided to go on a flamingo-finding adventure. He also decided to take his best friend, Paul, with him. “If we find it,” Rodney said, “we can write a report on protecting wild animals.” The boys took their boots, binoculars, and a camera. They packed some peanut butter sandwiches, too. Then they set out for the wetlands with great excitement.
The weather, however, had other plans. The dirt (泥) road was muddy because of the rain. With their boots sinking deep into the mud, reaching almost to their knees, Rodney and Paul trudged through mud and many water plants. They searched carefully for quite a long time and they were all tired, but they never found the flamingo. Finally, the sun began to set, and a cold wind cut through the boys’ jackets and they had nothing left to eat. Rodney and Paul had no choice but to go back home.
As they turned onto Paul’s dark street, Paul’s mom was waiting outside, looking worried. Paul dragged his feet up the driveway slowly. His mother put her arm on his shoulder, and then the two went inside.
Rodney continued down the street toward his house, past his neighbour’s yard and that plastic pink flamingo. “Great,” Rodney thought, “now they have a pair.” Out of the corner of his eye, Rodney saw something move.
31. How may the boys feel on their way back home?
A. Sorry. B. Afraid. C. Excited. D. Calm.
32. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. There were no real flamingos in this small town.
B. There were two real flamingos in his neighbour’s yard.
C. Rodney put another flamingo in his neighbor’s yard.
D. Rodney found the flamingo they had been looking for.
33. Which can be the best title of the story?
A. A Report on Protecting Flamingos B. A Hunt for Wild Flamingos
C. Two Boys’ Difficult Trip D. Flamingos’ Journey to the South
D
A tornado is a tower of spinning air. Tornadoes can be very dangerous. The cause of tornadoes is not fully known. They form during thunderstorms. Inside the stormy clouds, warm air rises and cool air falls. The warm and cool air can begin to spin. This spinning air can push out of the storm clouds as a funnel. When the funnel of spinning air touches the ground, it becomes a tornado.
There are three levels of tornadoes. Weak tornadoes have wind speeds that are below 160km/h. They last for less than ten minutes. They cause small damage like fallen tree branches. Strong tornadoes have wind speeds that are between 177km/h and 330km/h and can last about twenty minutes. These tornadoes can cause quite a bit of damage and can push cars and trains over. The most dangerous tornadoes are called violent tornadoes. They can last for longer than an hour and have wind speeds that are higher than 330km/h. These deadly tornadoes can lift houses and cars into the air.
Tornadoes and cyclones are very different. Tornadoes form on land and cyclones form on the ocean. Tornadoes can be a few kilometres wide. The biggest cyclones can be hundreds of kilometres across.
Some people set up a safe room in a basement. They get a radio, water, sleeping bags and extra food. They also keep their house and garden clean by getting rid of dead trees or weak fences. If a tornado alert is given, get your saferoom ready. Do not go outside or near windows. Hide under a large bed or table. Get out of your trailer or car. If you are outside, find flat ground. Lie down and protect your neck and head with your arms. Once the tornado is over, turn on the radio. Avoid any damaged areas and do not go near any fallen power lines.
34. What can we learn about tornadoes?
A. Tornadoes usually happen on sunny and windy days.
B. Tornadoes happen when the storm clouds touch the ground.
C. Tornadoes can be hundreds of kilometres across the land.
D. Tornadoes can take houses and cars into the air sometimes.
35. The following sentence can best be put at the beginning of _________. There are many different ways to prepare for a tornado.
A. Paragraph 1 B. Paragraph 2
C. Paragraph 3 D. Paragraph 4
36. The meaning of the underlined phrase “getting rid of” might be ________.
A. throwing B. keeping C. counting D. recording
37. What’s the purpose of the article?
A. To introduce tornadoes to us. B. To show us the danger of tornadoes.
C. To tell the differences of natural disasters. D. To give us some tips to protect ourselves.
