Scientists say this is because of climate change. This shrinking in size follows a rule called Bergmann’s rule. The rule says that animals in cooler areas are usually larger than those in warmer areas. Larger animals are able to keep warmer. That is the reason why animals in cold areas are larger. As global warming affects (影响) the planet, animals now have to deal with rising temperatures. Some of them shrink in size. Scientists studied over 70,000 species of birds. They discovered that some birds in North America were shrinking in size. Studies on deer, insects and fish also show similar facts. What does this mean for these species? Global warming is happening faster than ever before. So, animals may not be able to change fast enough. And when species shrink, other things get different. When an animal’s body shrinks, it may not be able to give birth to as many young as before—this may affect the size of a species’ population. It is possible that scientists haven’t yet completely understood how changes in size may affect the ability of animals to be alive. This shows the bigger problem with climate change—we aren’t always able to predict what will happen when the earth’s temperatures keep rising. And that is the real danger. 26. The underlined word “shrunk” in this passage means ________. A. become smaller B. disappeared C. increased D. grown 27. Why are animals in cold areas larger than those in warmer areas? A. Because they eat more food. B. Because they sleep longer. C. Because they can keep warmer. D. Because they need to be faster. 28. If a species’ body gets smaller, ________. A. the species’ population may become smaller B. the species may change faster quickly C. the earth may become warmer D. there will be more pollution on the earth 29. The writer thinks the biggest problem with global warming is ________. A. the earth’s temperatures keep rising B. humans can’t predict what will happen C. there will be fewer species on the earth D there will be more pollution on the earth 30. What can be the best title for this passage? A. How Global Warming Affect the Planet B. Why the Earth’s Temperature Is Rising C. How Animals on the Earth Are Changing D. Why Some Animals Are Getting Smaller 【答案】26. A 27. C 28. A 29. B 30. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了一项研究结果显示一些物种的体型正在变小，而造成这种变化的根本原因是气候变暖。 26题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“This shrinking in size follows a rule called Bergmann’s rule. The rule says that animals in cooler areas are usually larger than those in warmer areas.”可知，该法则指出，较冷地区的动物通常比较暖地区的动物体型更大。由此可知，由于气候变化，美国有52种常见鸟类的体型在缩小，故划线单词表示“变小”。故选A。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Larger animals are able to keep warmer. That is the reason why animals in cold areas are larger.”可知，寒冷的地方动物体型更大是因为它们能够保暖。故选C。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“When an animal’s body shrinks, it may not be able to give birth to as many young as before—this may affect the size of a species’ population.”可知，当物种的体型变小，其种群数量可能会变少。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据“This shows the bigger problem with climate change—we aren’t always able to predict what will happen when the earth’s temperatures keep rising. And that is the real danger.”可知，全球变暖最大的问题是人类不能预测会发生什么。故选B。 【30题详解】 最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了一些物种的体型正在变小的原因是全球变暖，因此最佳标题为“为什么有些动物正在变小”。故选D。 [C] 配对阅读：左栏是应对消极情绪的五个建议，右栏是七个具体的做法，请将左栏的建议和右栏的做法配对，并将答题卡上对应题目所选的选项涂黑。 ____31____ Move Your Body No matter how low you’re feeling, your body deserves a well-deserved support after movements.

We’ll get through this winter together.” He said ____45____. This tale teaches the importance of planning ahead and the value of hard work. 【答案】36. singing 37. winter 38. why 39. of 40. Because 41. him 42. days 43. covered 44. hungry 45. warmly 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了蚂蚁安迪在夏天努力收集食物以备冬天食用，而蝗虫格雷格在夏天只是唱歌跳舞。冬天来临时，格雷格找不到食物，便向安迪讨要食物。 【36题详解】 句意：另一方面，格雷格则把时间花在唱歌、跳舞和享受阳光上。根据“dancing and enjoying the sunshine”可知，此处是指把时间花到了唱歌跳舞上，sing“唱歌”和“跳舞”并列。spend time doing sth.表示“花费时间做某事”，为固定短语。故填singing。 【37题详解】 句意：认为有足够的时间为冬天做准备。根据“Andy worked hard, collecting food and saving it for the winter.”可知，他们都要为冬天做准备。故填winter。 【38题详解】 句意：你能告诉我你为什么这么努力工作，安迪？根据“Could you please tell me...you work so hard, Andy?”可知，格雷格是问安迪为什么这么努力工作。why引导宾语从句。故填why。 【39题详解】 句意：周围有很多食物！lots of表示“许多”，为固定短语。故填of。 【40题详解】 句意：因为当冬天来临时，再去找食物就太晚了。根据“when the winter comes, it will be too late to find food.”可知，这就是安迪努力工作的原因。because“因为”，表示原因；首字母大写。故填Because。 【41题详解】 句意：格雷格笑了，没有听他的。根据“Winter is far away!”可知，格雷格没有听安迪的劝告。这里动词“listen to”后需要跟宾格作宾语，he的宾格是him。故填him。 【42题详解】 句意：让我们享受这可爱的阳光灿烂的日子。根据“Winter is far away! Let’s enjoy the lovely sunny ...”可知，格雷格认为冬天还远着呢，应该享受这可爱的阳光灿烂的日子。day“日子”，是可数名词，此处用复数表示泛指。故填days。 【43题详解】 句意：森林被积雪覆盖，很难找到食物。根据“The forest was...in snow, and its difficult to find food.”可知，森林被积雪覆盖了。cover“覆盖”，主语“The forest”和谓语“cover”是被动关系，所以用被动语态，结构为be+过去分词，cover的过去分词covered。故填covered。 【44题详解】 句意：又冷又饿，格雷格终于到了安迪的家。根据“Can you share some food?”可知，格雷格没有食物，很饿。hungry“饥饿的”。故填hungry。 【45题详解】 句意：他热情地说。根据“Come inside, Greg. We’ll get through this winter together.”可知，安迪同意分享食物，所以是“热情地”说。warm“热情的”，此处需要用副词修饰动词“said”。故填warmly。 六、读写综合（本大题分为 A、B 两部分，共 25 分） 回答问题 请阅读下面短文，根据所提供的信息，回答五个问题，并将答案写在答题卡对应题目的答题位置上。要求所写答案语法正确、信息完整切题。 Today, we are more connected than before. People from different countries and cultural backgrounds come together for study, work, and travel. As a middle-school student, you might have the chance to meet friends from all over the world. While this is an exciting chance to learn about new cultures, it can sometimes lead to misunderstandings or cultural conflicts (冲突). Here are some tips on how to avoid cultural conflicts. *Learn and Respect Differences Every culture has its own traditions and ways of doing things. It’s important to learn more about the customs. Try to learn about other cultures by reading books, watching movies, or talking with people who come from those cultures. *Be Open-minded Keep an open mind when you meet something that seems strange or different from your culture. What may appear unusual to you might be a normal part of daily life for others. Asking questions in a polite way not only helps you learn but also shows that you respect their culture. *Accept and Be Flexible (灵活的) Sometimes, you may need to accept the customs of the place you’re visiting or living in. This doesn’t mean you have to give up your own culture, but being flexible can help you fit in and show respect. For example, if you’re in a country where it’s normal to take off your shoes before entering someone’s home, follow it even if it’s not common in your country. 46.

Yours, Lily 【答案】46. Misunderstandings or cultural conflicts may happen. 47. By reading books, watching movies, or talking with people who come from those cultures. 48. Asking questions in a polite way. 49. Being flexible. 50. Three. 51. One possible version: Dear Amy, I’m glad to hear that you will come to China next month. Welcome to China and let me tell you something about Chinese customs. China is an amazing country. When you come here, you’ll find people here are friendly and the food is delicious. First of all, it’s good manners to show up early or on time. When you meet a new friend, you say “hi” by shaking hands. In addition, when you eat, don’t hit your bowl with your chopsticks.

Scientists say this is because of climate change. This shrinking in size follows a rule called Bergmann’s rule. The rule says that animals in cooler areas are usually larger than those in warmer areas. Larger animals are able to keep warmer. That is the reason why animals in cold areas are larger. As global warming affects (影响) the planet, animals now have to deal with rising temperatures. Some of them shrink in size. Scientists studied over 70,000 species of birds. They discovered that some birds in North America were shrinking in size. Studies on deer, insects and fish also show similar facts. What does this mean for these species? Global warming is happening faster than ever before. So, animals may not be able to change fast enough. And when species shrink, other things get different. When an animal’s body shrinks, it may not be able to give birth to as many young as before—this may affect the size of a species’ population. It is possible that scientists haven’t yet completely understood how changes in size may affect the ability of animals to be alive. This shows the bigger problem with climate change—we aren’t always able to predict what will happen when the earth’s temperatures keep rising. And that is the real danger. 26 The underlined word “shrunk” in this passage means ________. A. become smaller B. disappeared C. increased D. grown 27. Why are animals in cold areas larger than those in warmer areas? A. Because they eat more food. B. Because they sleep longer. C. Because they can keep warmer. D. Because they need to be faster. 28. If a species’ body gets smaller, ________. A. the species’ population may become smaller B. the species may change faster quickly C. the earth may become warmer D. there will be more pollution on the earth 29. The writer thinks the biggest problem with global warming is ________. A. the earth’s temperatures keep rising B. humans can’t predict what will happen C. there will be fewer species on the earth D. there will be more pollution on the earth 30. What can be the best title for this passage? A. How Global Warming Affect the Planet B. Why the Earth’s Temperature Is Rising C. How Animals on the Earth Are Changing D. Why Some Animals Are Getting Smaller [C] 配对阅读：左栏是应对消极情绪的五个建议，右栏是七个具体的做法，请将左栏的建议和右栏的做法配对，并将答题卡上对应题目所选的选项涂黑。 ____31____ Move Your Body No matter how low you’re feeling, your body deserves a well-deserved support after movements.

People from different countries and cultural backgrounds come together for study, work, and travel. As a middle-school student, you might have the chance to meet friends from all over the world. While this is an exciting chance to learn about new cultures, it can sometimes lead to misunderstandings or cultural conflicts (冲突). Here are some tips on how to avoid cultural conflicts. *Learn and Respect Differences Every culture has its own traditions and ways of doing things. It’s important to learn more about the customs. Try to learn about other cultures by reading books, watching movies, or talking with people who come from those cultures. *Be Open-minded Keep an open mind when you meet something that seems strange or different from your culture. What may appear unusual to you might be a normal part of daily life for others. Asking questions in a polite way not only helps you learn but also shows that you respect their culture. *Accept and Be Flexible (灵活的) Sometimes, you may need to accept the customs of the place you’re visiting or living in. This doesn’t mean you have to give up your own culture, but being flexible can help you fit in and show respect. For example, if you’re in a country where it’s normal to take off your shoes before entering someone’s home, follow it even if it’s not common in your country. 46.
