Sharon, Aged 22
The most important thing to keep in mind when going into high school is to be yourself. Besides, I don’t know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. It’s best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need.
Frank, Aged 21
I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day. You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join in some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!
Eddie, Aged 20
When I started high school I was really nervous too, especially since I had been home-schooled all through middle school and didn’t really know anyone, I suppose the best advice would be to just relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will become easier after you know it.
David, Aged 19
I’m not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening. But you’ll get used to it. Don’t be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen will pick on you more if you let them know you’re afraid. Just take it easy. Making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. After the first week it’s really not bad at all. Don’t worry.

Do you still remember what happened when you went to school on the first day? I still remember my interesting first day of school. On that day, I hurried to my science class in the morning and found a seat in the back .I waited there for 15 minutes before the bell rang. The science teacher told us about some class rules. No one talked to me, nor did I talk to anyone else. I was one of those very shy girls. After the science class, I had an English class. I thought it would be boring but it turned out to be very funny. When the classes of the morning ended, I went to lunch. I sat outside the dining room with no one to talk to and no food because I was too nervous to join the lunch line. I kept looking around hoping to see someone I knew but I never saw anyone.
Lunch ended and I went to have my art class. I was the first one there and not even my teacher was there yet. So I sat at my desk and started drawing some pictures. I didn’t notice the rest of the class walking in or the girl who was standing behind me till I was surprised by the voice, "So what are you drawing?" It was a girl who had really long hair. She ended up being my best friend and one of the kindest and liveliest girls I knew.
In the next class meeting, the teacher asked us to talk about the past holiday. I was glad to make some new friends in the class. The first day of high school was hard for me but I got through it.

The English spoken in Australia, Great Britain and America has a surprising number of differences. Here are some of the common differences that you will find between these three kinds of English.
Pronunciation among the three types of English can be different. In American English, the “r” at the end of a word almost always affects its pronunciation, while in Australian and British English, the “r” is often silent. Australian English is unique due to the fact that many words have sounds that are gone. Instead of saying “good day”, Australian speakers say “g’ day”. The main pronunciation difference between the three, however, is the pronunciation of the vowel (元音) sounds.
Not only do the three types of English sound different, but they are also spelled differently. In some ways, the spelling shows the difference in pronunciation. For example, Americans use the word airplane. In Great Britain, the word is aeroplane, and it is pronounced with an “o” sound. Another example is the word aluminium, which is the UK spelling, and aluminum is the US spelling. Can you find the difference? In this example, the Australian spelling is the same as the UK spelling.
Another common spelling difference between British English and American English is the use of - our or -or at the end of a word. For example, in the UK, colour, flavour, honour are words that all end with -our. In America, they are spelled with -or endings. In Australia, the -our spelling is almost universal.
Also, the endings -re and -er are different between different English dialects. In America, you will go to the theater or fitness center, while in Britain you will visit the theatre or fitness centre. Again, Australian English follows the British way.
8 What’s the author’s purpose in writing this text?
A. To show that English has developed differently in different countries
B. To tell the differences between American, British and Australian English
C. To encourage us to explore the differences of English used in different countries
D. To suggest we speak different English when we are chatting with people from different countries
9. The main pronunciation difference between American English and British English lies in______.
A. the sound of “r” at the end of words B. the words with sounds that are gone
C. the vowel sounds of some words D. the last sound of many words
10. Which of the following words belongs to the Australian spelling?
A. Airplane B. Flavor. C. Theater D. Aluminium
11. After reading the text, we can learn that______.
A. Australian English has become the most popular English now
B. Australian English is more difficult to learn than American English
C. Australian English is more difficult to follow than American English
D Australian English follows the British way more than the American way
D
If you want to become a fluent English speaker, you should take some advice: there are four skills in learning English. They are listening, speaking, reading and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.
Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentences, the meaning of the unfamiliar words, etc.
There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammar - or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you encounter, but the fact you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.
As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.
For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening, you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes. If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.
12. According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills?
A. Reading and listening B. Reading and writing
C. Writing and speaking D. Speaking and listening
13. To improve your reading, when you read you should ____.
A. look up all the new words in the dictionary. B. think about what you are reading actively
C. spend more time studying grammar D. copy as many words and sentences as possible
14. The underlined words “encounter” in paragraph 3 probably be replaced by_____.
A. meet by accident B. discover C. find on purpose D. look for
15. The author seems to agree with the view that _____.
A. everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every day
B. you needn’t practice listening if you keep in reading every day
C. being good at reading is helpful in improving your listening
D. you should take notes of whatever you are hearing

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Peter woke up early in the morning. He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have his breakfast as quickly as possible.
“Why are you in such a hurry, early bird?” Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum,” Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get 100 scores. I’ve been studying the word list since last week. Although the test is difficult, I am well prepared for it.”
Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove him to school. At last, it was time for the students to have a test. “Responsibility,” Mr. White started. Peter wrote the word on his test paper quickly and confidently.
“The second word: contribution,” Mr. White said.
“So easy,” Peter thought. He quickly wrote the word down.
Thirty minutes later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White. “I’m going to mark your papers,” he told the class. After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter, David and Mary got full marks on the spelling test!”
Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter got an English-Chinese dictionary —the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he waved it highly. “This is my happiest moment.” Peter shouted.
After Mr. White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his performance. All of a sudden, the word “contribution” confused him. It didn’t seem right. Peter began to the word. “C-o-n-t-r-i-b-u-s-i-o-n,” he whispered. It was wrong. “What should I do?” Peter asked himself, staring at the red full marks.
注意:1.续写词数应为150词左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Peter was lost in thought

The English spoken in Australia, Great Britain and America has a surprising number of differences. Here are some of the common differences that you will find between these three kinds of English.
Pronunciation among the three types of English can be different. In American English, the “r” at the end of a word almost always affects its pronunciation, while in Australian and British English, the “r” is often silent. Australian English is unique due to the fact that many words have sounds that are gone. Instead of saying “good day”, Australian speakers say “g’ day”. The main pronunciation difference between the three, however, is the pronunciation of the vowel (元音) sounds.
Not only do the three types of English sound different, but they are also spelled differently. In some ways, the spelling shows the difference in pronunciation. For example, Americans use the word airplane. In Great Britain, the word is aeroplane, and it is pronounced with an “o” sound. Another example is the word aluminium, which is the UK spelling, and aluminum is the US spelling. Can you find the difference? In this example, the Australian spelling is the same as the UK spelling.
Another common spelling difference between British English and American English is the use of - our or -or at the end of a word. For example, in the UK, colour, flavour, honour are words that all end with -our. In America, they are spelled with -or endings. In Australia, the -our spelling is almost universal.
Also, the endings -re and -er are different between different English dialects. In America, you will go to the theater or fitness center, while in Britain you will visit the theatre or fitness centre. Again, Australian English follows the British way.
8. What’s the author’s purpose in writing this text?
A. To show that English has developed differently in different countries
B. To tell the differences between American, British and Australian English
C. To encourage us to explore the differences of English used in different countries
D. To suggest we speak different English when we are chatting with people from different countries
9. The main pronunciation difference between American English and British English lies in______.
A. the sound of “r” at the end of words B. the words with sounds that are gone
C. the vowel sounds of some words D. the last sound of many words
10. Which of the following words belongs to the Australian spelling?
A. Airplane B. Flavor. C. Theater D. Aluminium
11. After reading the text, we can learn that______.
A. Australian English has become the most popular English now
B. Australian English is more difficult to learn than American English
C. Australian English is more difficult to follow than American English
D. Australian English follows the British way more than the American way
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了澳大利亚英语、英式英语和美式英语的一些不同之处。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The English spoken in Australia, Great Britain and America has a surprising number of differences. Here are some of the common differences that you will find between these three kinds of English. (澳大利亚、英国和美国所说的英语有着惊人的差异。以下是你会在这三种英语之间发现的一些共同差异。)”结合文章主要介绍了澳大利亚英语、英式英语和美式英语的一些不同之处。可知,作者写这篇文章的目的是区分美式英语、英式英语和澳式英语。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The main pronunciation difference between the three, however, is the pronunciation of the vowel (元音) sounds .(然而,三者之间的主要发音区别在于元音的发音。)”可知,美式英语和英式英语的主要发音区别在于一些单词的元音发音。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Another example is the word aluminium, which is the UK spelling, and aluminum is the US spelling. Can you find the difference? In this example, the Australian spelling is the same as the UK spelling. (另一个例子是单词aluminium,这是英国的拼写,而aluminum是美国的拼写。你能找到区别吗?在这个例子中,澳大利亚拼写和英国拼写是一样的。)”可知,aluminium这个单词在英国拼写和澳大利亚的拼写是一样的,故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“In this example, the Australian spelling is the same as the UK spelling. (在这个例子中,澳大利亚拼写和英国拼写是一样的。)”以及第四段“In America, they are spelled with -or endings. In Australia, the -our spelling is almost universal. (在美国,它们以-or拼写结尾。在澳大利亚,-our拼写几乎是普遍的。)”可知,澳大利亚英语更追随英式英语而不是美式英语。故选D。

If you want to become a fluent English speaker, you should take some advice: there are four skills in learning English. They are listening, speaking, reading and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening.
Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentences, the meaning of the unfamiliar words, etc.
There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammar - or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you encounter, but the fact you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.
As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.
For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening, you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes. If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.
12. According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills?
A. Reading and listening B. Reading and writing
C. Writing and speaking D. Speaking and listening
13. To improve your reading, when you read you should ____.
A. look up all the new words in the dictionary. B. think about what you are reading actively
C. spend more time studying grammar D. copy as many words and sentences as possible
14. The underlined words “encounter” in paragraph 3 probably be replaced by_____.
A meet by accident B. discover C. find on purpose D. look for
15. The author seems to agree with the view that _____.
A. everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every day
B. you needn’t practice listening if you keep in reading every day
C. being good at reading is helpful in improving your listening
D. you should take notes of whatever you are hearing
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了如何流利地说英语和写英语。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening. (你必须记住的最重要的事情是,如果你想提高你的口语和写作技能,你应该首先掌握阅读和听力技能。)”可知,阅读和听力是最重要的内容,故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. (尽可能多地阅读。但是你的阅读必须是积极的。)”可知,我们要积极的思考我们所阅读的内容,故选B。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“but the fact you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough (但只要你是第一次看到它们,在任何时候看到它们(比如在其他段落或书籍中)都能认出它们,就足够了)”可知,指在阅读中你所遇见的那些你不熟悉的单词,能够认出它们就够了,故该词指“遇见”,故选A。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. (你只有把注意力放在阅读上,熟练地阅读,你才能赶上听力。)”可知,擅长读有助于你的听力。故选C。

Schedule study breaks.
When you have listed all of your tasks and made a schedule, you should arrange study breaks. ___19___ This will give your eyes some time to rest, and yourself a chance to go to the bathroom or have some coffee. Scheduled breaks will reduce the need for you to interrupt yourself to the lowest level during the study session.

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了如何高效学习的几点建议。
【16题详解】
根据本空前的“Studying longer does not necessarily mean studying better.”可知,学习时间长并不意味着学得更好,下文又介绍了高效学习的几点建议,故G项(为了充分利用时间,你需要学会如何高效地学习)符合语境。
【17题详解】
根据本空前的“The first thing you need to do is avoid distractions (分散注意力的事物) while studying.”可知,你需要做的第一件事就是避开学习时分散注意力的事物,故C项(这意味着去一个能给你带来平静的地方)符合语境。
【18题详解】
根据本空前的“As a general rule, assign (分配) at least one hour to each subject.”可知,每个科目至少安排一小时,故F项(如果你有一个宽泛的科目,你需要把它分成更小的部分)符合语境。
【19题详解】
根据本空前的“you should arrange study breaks.”可知,你应该安排学习时的休息时间,故A项(每两个小时休息15分钟)符合语境。
【20题详解】
根据本段后的“Just in case you run out of time to study, or if you think you do not have enough time to cover all topics, you should study in an order.”可知,如果你认为你没有足够的时间完成所有的科目,以防你用光学习时间,你应当有序地学习,故B项(学会按照重要性安排科目)符合语境。
【点睛】过渡句是七选五的常见考点,被选选项一定要起到承上启下的过渡作用,既要对应上问话题,又要引出下文(通常是方法或建议),例如本篇第1题,上文提到学习时间长并不意味着学得更好,下文又介绍了如何高效学习的几点建议,G项(为了充分利用时间,你需要学会如何高效地学习)既对应了上文提到的学习时间这一话题,又引出了下文高效学习的几点建议,符合语境。

【答案】36. fluently
37. that##which
38. translating
39. into 40. to speak
41. a 42. skills
43. listens
44. It 45. confidence
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了大多数中国学生学了10多年英语仍然不能流利说英语的原因。
【36题详解】
考查副词。句意:许多中国学生已经学习了大约十年的英语,但他们中的大多数人甚至不能流利地说英语。修饰动词speak,要用副词,作状语。故填fluently。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:实际上,有几个困难导致了这种情况的发生。分析句子结构可知,空处引导限定性定语从句,先行词为difficulties,且从句中缺少主语,所以用关系代词which或that引导。故填that或which。

考查非谓语动词。句意:另一个习惯是从汉语翻译成英语,然后把这些想法变成口语单词和句子。介词of后面要用动名词,作宾语。故填translating。

【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:我们必须学会像孩子一样说话。动词短语learn to do sth.表示“学习做某事”,因此空处应用动词不定式。故填to speak。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意:当我们学习第二语言时,我们需要回忆我们是如何学习母语的。此处表泛指,前面要用不定冠词,second的发音以辅音音素开头。故填a。
【42题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:学习理解和说一门语言是儿童发展的首要技能之一。根据空前的one of可知,此处应用名词复数。故填skills。
【43题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:他听了一段时间,然后想要重复单词。分析句子结构可知,空处为谓语动词,此处表示一个习惯的动作,因此用一般现在时,且主语He为第三人称单数,谓语动词也要用单数。故填listens。
【44题详解】
考查固定句型。句意:他花了很长时间才学会语法、拼写和正式的句子结构。此处为固定句型“It takes/took sb. some time to do sth.”,表示“花费某人多长时间去做某事”,注意句首字母需大写。故填It。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:对于语言教师来说,他们应该对自己的学生有信心,并慷慨地表扬他们。分析句子结构可知,空处应用名词。have confidence in sb.“对某人有信心”,为固定用法。故填confidence。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Peter woke up early in the morning. He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have his breakfast as quickly as possible.
“Why are you in such a hurry, early bird?” Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum,” Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get 100 scores. I’ve been studying the word list since last week. Although the test is difficult, I am well prepared for it.”
Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove him to school. At last, it was time for the students to have a test. “Responsibility,” Mr. White started. Peter wrote the word on his test paper quickly and confidently.
“The second word: contribution,” Mr. White said.
“So easy,” Peter thought. He quickly wrote the word down.
Thirty minutes later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White. “I’m going to mark your papers,” he told the class. After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter, David and Mary got full marks on the spelling test!”
Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter got an English-Chinese dictionary —the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he waved it highly. “This is my happiest moment.” Peter shouted.
After Mr. White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his performance. All of a sudden, the word “contribution” confused him. It didn’t seem right. Peter began to the word. “C-o-n-t-r-i-b-u-s-i-o-n,” he whispered. It was wrong. “What should I do?” Peter asked himself, staring at the red full marks.

【答案】One Possible Version
Peter was lost in thought. “Should I return the dictionary? If so, I would lose what I have expected for a long time. But, if not, I can’t persuade myself to pretend to be as calm as nothing happened.” Suddenly Mum’s words flew into his mind: “We ought to be honest.” Without any hesitation, holding the dictionary and the test paper in hand, Peter approached to Mr. White quickly. Being praised for honesty in front of the class, Peter was very delighted and decided to get full marks in the next test.
A month later, Peter happily told his mother a piece of good news. He would be given the title An honesty boy by the school the next day. Hearing the news, as excited as Peter, Mum kissed Peter on the cheek, saying “I feel so proud of you for your good virtue, honey.” At school, Mr. White handed the dictionary to Peter once again, saying it was not for his score but for his good quality. Laughter lingering around the classroom, Peter set an example to other students that honesty is the best policy.
