With a long history，hot pot is still the most popular kind of food in China，according to a survey by the consumer review（消费者评论） website Dianping.com.There are about 350，000 hot pot restaurants around the country，the largest number of all kinds of restaurants. When enjoying a hot pot meal，people sit around a table and eat delicious food from a steaming pot.There are many kinds of soup bases to choose from：spicy（辣的），mushroom and tomato.Usually a hot pot has two parts inside.One side is spicy，while the other side is not so spicy.So everyone can choose what they like.They put meat，seafood，vegetables，tofu and bean noodles in the soup to boil.Meat，especially beef，is often cut as thin as paper，so it should not be cooked too long.Otherwise，it will lose its taste.You needn't have great cooking skills to enjoy hot pot，either.When the food is ready，take it out and put it in different sauces to give it a special flavor（品味）.Some also drink the soup from the pot. ▲.When the pot cooks，people talk and drink.Nowadays，hot pot is more than food but a part of our Chinese life.Unlike some meals，it can make everyone feel relaxed.No wonder hot pot restaurants have become a favourite place to get together for friends and family in China. （1）Why does the writer write the number"350，000"in Paragraph（段落） 2？ 　 　 A.To only report the number.

But the big question is，do we get as much information from audio books as we do from paper books？Scientists did an experiment（实验） to find the answer.People in group one were asked to listen to an audio book while people in group two read the same paper book.It turned out that people in group one remembered as much information as people in group two do.They remembered the same amount（量） of information，whether they listened to it or read it. Another study from a scientific magazine further supported（支持） the result above.In the study，scientists studied people's brains when they listened to and read books.The result showed that listening to audio books activates（激活） almost the same parts of the brain as reading does. However，some people still believe that they learn better from reading paper books. One reason might be that when we listen to audio books，we are often doing other things at the same time."If you're trying to learn while doing two things，you're not going to learn as well，Daniel Willingham，a professor at the University of Virginia，told The New York Times. （1）What has become quite popular these days according to the passage？ 　 　 A.Going to the park.

As a teacher，Zizhi was kind and wise，He chose students regardless of（不论） their wealth or social status（财富或社会地位）.He often pointed at a peach and a plum tree in his yard when asking his students to work hard."You should become a useful person and do work to benefit society（使社会受益），just like when the peach and plum trees bloom and yield（产出） fruit，"he said. Keeping these words in their minds，many of Zizhi's students went on to different places around the country，getting great things along the way.They would plant peach and plum trees to show their respect（尊敬） for their teacher. When Zizhi traveled around the country and saw his students and the trees they planted，he was very happy."My students are like peach and plum trees.They are everywhere，and they have got great results." Since then，we use "peach and plum trees"to refer to successful students in their post﹣study. （1）What is the idiom"taolimantianxia"about？ 　 　 （2）Why did Zizhi leave his state？ 　 　 （3）List at least three words to describe（形容） Zizhi. 　 　 （4）Write down another Chinese idiom you know and its meaning or story.（Write 30 words or more） 　 　 六、翻译句子 21．（1分）我不同意你的意见． I　 　　 　　 　you． 22．（1分）我和他不熟，我只见过他一两次。 I don't know him well，I have only met him 　 　. 23．（1分）他读这本书不够仔细。 He didn't read the book 　 　 24．（1分）下周城市音乐厅会有一场音乐会。 There 　 　 a concert in City Music Hall next week. 25．（1分） Sarah的妈妈期待着收到她的来信。 Sarah's mom 　 　 hearing from her. 26．（1分）爷爷奶奶准备了很多的食物给他吃。 His grandparents 　 　 much food 　 　 him to eat. 27．（2分）你的未来由你决定。 　 　 28．（2分）你打算如何解决这个问题？ 　 　 七、书面表达 29．（20分）请以"My Life in the Future"为题，根据以下提示写一篇英语短文。 （1）你梦想的工作以及原因； （2）你将来的生活地点以及生活描述； （3）你将如何实现自己的梦想 要求： （1）根据所给提示，写一篇短文。可适当补充，不少于80词； （2）语言流畅、书写规范、卷面整洁。文中不得使用你的真实姓名、校名。 My Life in the Future ___________. 参考答案与试题解析 二、阅读理解第一节 阅读下列四篇短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 13．（8分） Today，we are going to make a simple cake.Here are the materials（材料） and ways.Let's have a try!

As a teacher，Zizhi was kind and wise，He chose students regardless of（不论） their wealth or social status（财富或社会地位）.He often pointed at a peach and a plum tree in his yard when asking his students to work hard."You should become a useful person and do work to benefit society（使社会受益），just like when the peach and plum trees bloom and yield（产出） fruit，"he said. Keeping these words in their minds，many of Zizhi's students went on to different places around the country，getting great things along the way.They would plant peach and plum trees to show their respect（尊敬） for their teacher. When Zizhi traveled around the country and saw his students and the trees they planted，he was very happy."My students are like peach and plum trees.They are everywhere，and they have got great results." Since then，we use "peach and plum trees"to refer to successful students in their post﹣study. （1）What is the idiom"taolimantianxia"about？ 　It's about a teacher（who has taught so many successful students）./A teacher.　 （2）Why did Zizhi leave his state？ 　Because the king didn't like him.　 （3）List at least three words to describe（形容） Zizhi. 　Knowledgeable，kind and wise.　 （4）Write down another Chinese idiom you know and its meaning or story.（Write 30 words or more） 　Once upon a time，a farmer saw a hare bump into a tree stump and die accidentally.Then he waited by the stump every day，hoping to get another hare without any effort.It means waiting passively for something to happen instead of taking action.　 【分析】文章介绍了成语"桃李满天下"的由来，讲述了春秋时期的官员子质通过教导学生，培养了许多成功的学子，学生像桃李树一样遍布四方。 【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据文章第一段 "There is a Chinese idiom（习语）'taolimantianxia'，referring to（关于）a teacher who has taught so many successful students"（中国有一个成语"桃李满天下"，指的是一位老师教出了很多成功的学生）可知，"桃李满天下" 这个习语是关于一位教出众多成功学生的老师。故答案为：It's about a teacher（who has taught so many successful students）./A teacher. （2）细节理解题。根据文章第二段 "But the king didn't like him at the time，so he had to leave his state."（但是当时国王不喜欢他，所以他不得不离开他的国家。） 可知，因为当时的国王不喜欢子质，这是导致他不得不离开自己国家的直接原因。故答案为：Because the king didn't like him. （3）细节理解题。根据文章第三段 "As a teacher，Zizhi was kind and wise"（作为一名老师，Zizhi既善良又聪明） 结合第二段 "Zizhi was a knowledgeable person"（子质是个博学的人），可以得出能够用来形容子质的三个词为 knowledgeable（知识渊博的）、kind（善良的）和 wise（睿智的）。故答案为：Knowledgeable，kind and wise. （4）主观表达题。题干要求写出另一个中文习语及其含义或故事。答案以 "守株待兔" 为例，首先阐述了故事背景 "Once upon a time，a farmer saw a hare bump into a tree stump and die accidentally."（从前，一位农民看到一只野兔偶然撞到树桩上死去），接着描述农民后续行为 "Then he waited by the stump every day，hoping to get another hare without any effort."（然后他每天都在树桩旁等待，希望不费力气再得到一只野兔），最后解释习语含义 "It means waiting passively for something to happen instead of taking action."（它意味着消极等待某事发生而不是采取行动），完整地满足了题目要求。参考答案为：Once upon a time，a farmer saw a hare bump into a tree stump and die accidentally.Then he waited by the stump every day，hoping to get another hare without any effort.It means waiting passively for something to happen instead of taking action. 【点评】做题时首先对原文材料迅速浏览，掌握全文的主旨大意。其次，细读题材，各个击破。掌握全文的大意之后，细细阅读材料后的问题，弄清每题要求后，带着问题，再回到原文中去寻找、捕获有关信息。 六、翻译句子 21．（1分）我不同意你的意见． I　don't　　agree　　with　you． 【分析】I don't agree with you． 【解答】agree with sb．同意某人，根据句意用一般现在时的否定句． 故答案为don't agree with 【点评】汉译英，需要学生根据句意、时态和固定搭配等，来选择合适的单词或者短语，构成合乎语法、句意完整的句子． 22．（1分）我和他不熟，我只见过他一两次。 I don't know him well，I have only met him 　once or twice　. 【分析】我和他不熟，我只见过他一两次。 【解答】根据中英文提示可知，句子缺少"一两次"，连词or"或者"，连接并列频率副词once"一次"和twice"两次"。 故答案为：once or twice。 【点评】需要积累一些词汇或固定用法，然后看看是否有语法错误，是否完整等。注意时态、人称等变化，最后检查单词拼写。 23．（1分）他读这本书不够仔细。 He didn't read the book 　carefully enough　 【分析】他读这本书不够仔细。 【解答】根据中英文提示可知，句子缺少"足够仔细"，副词carefully"仔细地"，修饰动词read"读"。副词enough"足够地"，修饰副词carefully，enough需后置。 故答案为：carefully enough。 【点评】需要积累一些词汇或固定用法，然后看看是否有语法错误，是否完整等。注意时态、人称等变化，最后检查单词拼写。 24．（1分）下周城市音乐厅会有一场音乐会。 There 　will be　 a concert in City Music Hall next week. 【分析】下周城市音乐厅会有一场音乐会。 【解答】根据next week（下周）可知，是一般将来时，结合there可知，there be句型的一般将来时，结构为：there will be。 故填：will be。 【点评】考查there be句型和一般将来时，应牢记其含义和用法，结合语境答题。 25．（1分） Sarah的妈妈期待着收到她的来信。 Sarah's mom 　is looking forward to　 hearing from her. 【分析】Sarah的妈妈期待着收到她的来信。 【解答】期待做某事look forward to doing sth，是动词短语。根据句意要用现在进行时，其构成为am/ is/ are doing，主语是第三人称单数，用is。 故答案为：is looking forward to。 【点评】汉译英，需要学生根据句意、时态和固定搭配等，来选择合适的单词或者短语，构成合乎语法、句意完整的句子。 26．（1分）爷爷奶奶准备了很多的食物给他吃。 His grandparents 　prepared　 much food 　for　 him to eat. 【分析】爷爷奶奶准备了很多的食物给他吃。 【解答】为某人准备某物prepare sth for sb，是动词短语。根据句意要用一般过去时，谓语动词用过去式。 故答案为：prepared；for。 【点评】汉译英，需要学生根据句意、时态和固定搭配等，来选择合适的单词或者短语，构成合乎语法、句意完整的句子。 27．（2分）你的未来由你决定。 　Your future is up to you.　 【分析】你的未来由你决定。 【解答】Your future你的未来，作主语；be up to...由……决定；一般现在时，主语是单数，be动词用is；you你。你的未来由你决定：Your future is up to you。 故答案为：Your future is up to you. 【点评】此题考查汉译英，在熟知每个汉语的英语翻译的基础上，根据语法结构，组合短语或者句子，便可得出正确答案。 28．（2分）你打算如何解决这个问题？ 　How do you plan to solve this problem？　 【分析】你打算如何解决这个问题？ 【解答】根据所给汉语提示，How怎样，you作主语；特殊疑问句，solve解决，是动词，特殊疑问句要借助助动词do构成特殊疑问句，this problem这个问题。 故答案为：How do you plan to solve this problem？ 【点评】此题考查汉译英，在熟知每个汉语的英语翻译的基础上，根据语法结构，组合短语或者句子，便可得出正确答案。 七、书面表达 29．（20分）请以"My Life in the Future"为题，根据以下提示写一篇英语短文。 （1）你梦想的工作以及原因； （2）你将来的生活地点以及生活描述； （3）你将如何实现自己的梦想 要求： （1）根据所给提示，写一篇短文。可适当补充，不少于80词； （2）语言流畅、书写规范、卷面整洁。文中不得使用你的真实姓名、校名。 My Life in the Future ___________. 【分析】【高分句型一】 Because I went to Beijing last year， and I fell in love with it.因为我去年去了北京，我爱上了它。 because引导原因状语从句。 【高分句型二】 I want to be a professional basketball player.我想成为一名职业篮球运动员。 want to do sth想做某事。 【解答】 My Life in the Future In the future， I think I'll be a teacher.
