A. a, a B. an, the C. an, a D. the, the 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查冠词。句意：——你觉得这本语法书怎么样?——哦，这真是一本有用的参考书，值得再读一遍。第一空用不定冠词表示泛指，指的是“一本有用的参考书”，useful不是以元音因素开头，不用an ，要用a；不定冠词a 与序数词连用表示“再，又”，不表示次序，a second time表示“再次”，故第二个空用a，故选A。 2. Mr. Smith has two _______, both of whom are teachers in a school. A. brothers-in-law B. brother-in-laws C. brothers-in-laws D. brothers-in law 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查名词复数。句意：史密斯先生有两个姻亲兄弟，他们都是学校的老师。根据空前“two”可知，这里用名词复数。“brother-in-law”为单数名词，意为“姐夫，妹夫，小叔等姻亲兄弟”，其中“brother”为主词，需要变复数，即 “brothers-in-law”。故选A项。 3. As is known to us all, ______ travels much faster than ______. A. lights; sounds B. light; sound C. sound; light D. sounds; lights 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查名词。句意：众所周知，光比声音传播得快得多。根据句意可知，“light”作“光”讲时，是不可数名词，没有复数形式；“sound”作“声音”讲时，通常也是不可数名词，没有复数形式。故选B项。 4. — I’m ______ in what _____ you. — Well, I want to tell you he is an _______ man. A. interesting, interests, interesting B. interested, interests, interesting C. interested, interests, interested D. interested, interested, interested 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词词义辨析和动词的用法。句意：——我对你所说的很感兴趣。——嗯，我想告诉你他是一个有趣的人。第一空需要填入形容词，表示“感兴趣的”，因此使用interested；第二空需要填入动词，表示“吸引，引起兴趣”，句子是一般现在时，主语what为单数，因此用interests；第三空需要填入形容词，表示“有趣的”，因此使用interesting。 综上所述，正确答案是B.interested, interests, interesting。故选B。 5 —Do you have enough men to carry these chairs? —No. I think we need _______ men. A. another one B. other two C. more two D. two more 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查数词表达方式。句意：——你们有足够的人搬这些椅子吗？——不。我想我们还需要两个人。分析句子可知，“another one”表示“另一个”，后面接可数名词单数，而“men”是复数形式，所以 A 选项错误。“other two men”这种表达语序错误，正确的应该是“two other men”，所以 B 选项错误。“more”的用法是“数词 + more + 名词复数”，而不是“more + 数词”，所以“more two men”表达错误，C 选项错误。“two more men”符合“数词 + more + 名词复数”的结构，表示“另外两个男人”，符合语境，即“我们还需要另外两个男人来搬这些椅子”。故选D项。 6. — We’ll do _______ we can ____ English well this term. — It‘s high time for you to work hard. A. what, study B. what, to study C. that, be studied D. what, be studying 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查宾语从句和状语从句。句意：——这学期我们将尽我们所能学好英语。——你该努力工作了。分析句子可知，“_______we can”是一个宾语从句，作动词“do”的宾语。在这个宾语从句中，“do”后面缺少宾语，所以用 “what” 来引导，“what” 在宾语从句中作“do”的宾语，“what we can”表示“我们所能做的事情”。“do what we can”（我们做我们所能做的）的目的是“学好英语”，后面空处用动词不定式“to study”作目的状语，表示“为了学好英语”。故选B项。 7. ---I don’t think your team can beat theirs. ---____. But we could if Lin Tao were on the team. A. No, we can’t B. Yes, we can’t C. Yes, we can D. No, we can 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查情景交际。句意：——我认为你们队赢不了他们队。——不，我们不能。但如果林涛在队里，我们就可以。对于“I don’t think...”这种否定前移的句子，回答时要依据实际情况。根据答语中“But we could if Lin Tao were on the team.（但是如果林涛在队里我们就能打败他们队）”，可知实际情况是现在“我们”的队伍不能打败对方队伍。对否定的观点进行回应时，应用“No”搭配否定形式。故选A项。 8. It was in the hall ____we used to have meetings_____ the meeting was held. A. that where B. where, that C. that, that D. where, where 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查强调句型和定语从句。句意：这次会议是在我们过去开会的大厅里举行的。分析句子可知，该句第一空为关系词引导的定语从句，对先行词the hall的修饰，先行词“the hall”，在定语从句中作地点状语成分，所以引导词用“where”；该句第二空为It was…that…的强调句型，被强调部分为in the hall where we used to have meetings，为强调句子的状语成分。故选B项。 9. After the new technique was introduced, the company produced _______ in 2017 as the year before. A. as twice many computers B. twice many as computers C. twice as many computers D. as many computers twice 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查倍数表达法。句意：新科技被引进后，该公司在2017年生产的电脑数量是前年的两倍。倍数表达法为“倍数 + as ﹍ as …”，故正确答案为C。 10. ---Do you like ____ a teacher? --- Sure. But my parents ____ me to be a doctor when I was a young girl. A. to be, hoped B. being, hoped C. being, wished D. to be, wish 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：——你喜欢当老师吗？——确定。但是当我还是个小女孩的时候，我父母希望我成为一名医生。第一空，like后可接to do sth.或doing sth.，like to do sth.常表示具体某次想要做某事，like doing sth.表示习惯性、经常性的喜欢做某事，这里询问是否喜欢当老师，是一种习惯爱好，用like being a teacher更合适；第二空，hope和wish都有“希望”的意思，但hope后不能接sb. to do sth.结构，wish可以接 sb. to do sth.，根据when I was a young girl可知时态是一般过去时。故选C。 11. —What he enjoys _____ great and interesting. —Yes, ___ it’s dangerous. A. sounds, but B. sounding, but C. sounds, so D. to sound ,so 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查谓语动词和连词。句意：——他喜欢的听起来很棒，也很有趣。——是的，但是很危险。在What he enjoys _____ great and interesting.中，What he enjoys是一个主语从句，主句缺少谓语动词；陈述客观事实，用一般现在时；从句作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。在Yes, ___ it’s dangerous.中，前面说他喜欢的事物听起来很棒很有趣，后面说它很危险，前后是转折关系，所以用转折连词but。故选A。 12. Only after my friend came,____________. A. did the computer repair B. he repaired the computer C. was the computer repaired D. the computer was repaired 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查倒装句。句意：我朋友来后，电脑才修好。Only放在句首且并强调状语时，构成部分倒装。主语与谓语为被动关系。故选C项。 13. Good care must ______babies, particularly while they are ill. A. take B. take of C. be taken D. be taken of 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查语态。句意：必须好好照顾婴儿，尤其是在它们生病的时候。take good care of是固定短语，意为“好好照顾”。在该句中，Good care作主语，与take care of构成被动关系，所以要用被动语态。情态动词must后接动词原形。故选D。 14. The new secretary is supposed to report to the manager as soon as she _______ . A. will arrive B. arrives C. is going to arrive D. is arriving 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查时态。句意：新来的秘书应该一来，就向经理报到。as soon as 引导时间状语从句，要遵从“主将从现”原则，状语从句通常要用一般现在时表示将来。故选B项。 15. Is this college _____ they went to last year? Is this the university ____ you visited last time? A. that, the one B. which, where C. the one, which D. the one, what 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：这是他们去年上的那所大学吗？这就是你上次参观的那所大学吗？第一句中，this college 是主语，句子缺少表语，the one可在句中作表语，相当于the college，引导词在从句中作宾语，可省略，所以第一个空填 the one；第二句中，the university 是先行词，在从句中作visited的宾语，关系代词可用which或that，也可省略，所以第二个空填 which。故选C。 II.完型填空（共20小题，每小题1分，满分20分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从16-35各题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 Marriage is still a popular institution in the United States, but divorce ( 离婚 ) is becoming___16___as “popular”.

On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin (顽童) was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car, Paul” he asked. Paul answered, “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing？Boy, I wish…” He hesitated (犹豫)． Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly. “I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.” Paul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?” “Oh yes, I’d love that.” After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, “Paul, would you mind driving in front of my house?” Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are? the boy asked. He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled (残疾的) brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car. “There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.” Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car.

The effect (影响) of a conversation between a child and an adult is about six times as great as the effect of adult speech input alone, the researchers found. “Adults speaking to children helps language develop, but what matters much more is the interaction (交流),” said the study’s lead author, Frederick Zimmerman, an associate professor in the School of Public Health at the University of California, Los Angeles. The researchers also found that TV viewing didn’t have much of an effect — positively or negatively — as long as it wasn’t displacing conversations between an adult and a child. The UCLA study included 275 families with children between 2 months and 48 months old. They represented a variety of incomes (收入) and education. The researchers found that, in an average day, children hear about 13,000 spoken words from adults and took part in about 400 adult­child conversations a day. Factors (因素) positively associated with language development included each additional (额外的) 100 conversations a day and each 1,000 word increase in the number of words spoken by adults and heard by children. When looked at alone, TV was negatively associated with language development. But, when the three factors were put together, the only one that stood out was conversation between adults and children. “The more a child speaks and interacts with an adult, the better idea a parent has about where the child is,” Zimmerman said. “Although it’s mostly done unconsciously (无意识地), parents will provide more information and correct mistakes. They’ll also tailor their speech to the child. Parents can give a child words by talking to them about what they’re doing, such as “I’m putting on your pajamas now.” “But give your child the opportunity to talk, hopefully without the rest of the noise in the environment,” she added. “If parents can spare some conversation time — maybe at bath time or at dinner time — that’s a wonderful thing.” 41. The researchers also found that TV viewing ________. A. could have a positive effect on a child’s language development B. had a little effect on a child’s language development C. affected a child’s language development more negatively than positively D. affected a child’s language development both negatively and positively 42. Frederick Zimmerman would probably agree that ________. A. parents should let their children talk most of the time B. children should watch TV programs alone all the time C. the conversation between parents and children should be two­way D. It’s no good for parents to correct their children’s mistakes when they are speaking 43. We can get from the last paragraph that ________. A. parents should let a child repeat what he or she says B. bath time or dinner time is the best chance for parents to talk to a child C. parent­child conversation can be carried out at any proper time D. parents should leave a child talking alone 44. What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph? It means ______. A. parents will make clothes for children as tailors B. parents will choose the topics that children are interested in C. parents will help kids to correct their mistakes D. parents will keep quiet when they have nothing to talk 45. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Talk with kids, not to them B. Let your children voice their own opinions C How to develop a child’s language ability D The importance of early child language development 【答案】41. B 42. C 43. C 44. B 45. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了UCLA研究人员关于儿童语言发展的研究发现，强调成人倾听儿童说话的重要性，并指出成人与儿童之间的互动对话对语言发展的影响远大于单纯的成人语言输入。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The researchers also found that TV viewing didn’t have much of an effect — positively or negatively — as long as it wasn’t displacing conversations between an adult and a child.(研究人员还发现，只要电视没有取代成人和孩子之间的对话，电视就不会产生太大的影响——无论是积极的还是消极的)”可知，电视观看对儿童语言发展的影响较小。故选B。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Adults speaking to children helps language develop, but what matters much more is the interaction(交流) (成人对儿童说话有助于语言发展，但更重要的是互动)”可推知，Frederick Zimmerman认为成人与儿童之间的对话应该是双向的。故选C。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“If parents can spare some conversation time — maybe at bath time or at dinner time — that’s a wonderful thing.(如果父母能抽出一些对话时间——也许在洗澡时间或晚餐时间——那将是一件很棒的事情)”可知，父母与孩子的对话可以在任何合适的时间进行。故选C。 【44题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“Parents can give a child words by talking to them about what they’re doing, such as “I’m putting on your pajamas now.” “But give your child the opportunity to talk, hopefully without the rest of the noise in the environment, ”she added.(父母可以通过与孩子谈论他们正在做的事情来和孩子说话，比如“我现在正在穿你的睡衣。”“但给你的孩子说话的机会，希望没有其他噪音的环境，”她补充道)”可知，“tailor their speech to”意为父母应该选择孩子感兴趣的话题。故选B。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“If you want to help children develop language and speech skills, UCLA researchers say, listening to what they have to say is just as important as talking to them.(加州大学洛杉矶分校的研究人员说，如果你想帮助孩子发展语言和演讲技能，倾听他们要说的话和与他们交谈同样重要)”以及第二段“what matters much more is the interaction(更重要的是互动)”可知，文章主要强调了与孩子对话的重要性，而不是单向的说话。由此可知，A“与孩子对话，而不是对他们说话”适合作本文最佳标题。故选A。 ( C ) Some words are used to describe how a person spends his or her time. For example, someone who likes to spend too much time sitting or lying down while watching television is sometimes called a couch potato. A couch is a piece of furniture that people sit on. Robert Armstrong, an artist from California, developed the term (词语；术语) in 1976. Years later, he listed it as a trademark (商标) with the American government. He also helped write a funny book about life as a full-time television watcher. It is called “The Official Couch Potato Handbook”. Couch potatoes enjoy watching television just as mouse potatoes enjoy working on computers. A computer mouse is the thing that we use to move the pointer on a computer screen. The term became popular in 1993. American writer Alice Kahn invented the term to describe young people who spend a lot of time using computers. Too much time inside the house can cause someone to get cabin fever which isn’t really a disease. However, people can become bored if they spend too much time inside their homes. This especially happens during the winter when it is too cold or snowy to do things outside and even offices and stores are closed. Often children get cabin fever if they cannot go outside to play. So do their parents. Some people enjoy spending a lot of time in their homes to make them nice places to live in. This is called nesting or cocooning. Birds build nests to hold their eggs and baby birds. Some insects (昆虫) build cocoons around themselves for protection. Nests and cocoons provide safety for wildlife. So people like the idea of nests and cocoons, too. The terms became popular over 20 years ago. They describe people buying their first homes and filling them with many things. These people then have children. When these children are grown and have left the nest, these parents will live alone in their empty nest and become empty nesters. 46. The terms introduced in the passage are mainly connected with ____ . A. habits B. hobbies C. life D. time 47. According to the passage, which of the following is closest in meaning with the word “couch”? A. bed B. box C. sofa D. desk 48. A special book was once written on the term ______. A. couch potato B. mouse potato C. cabin fever D. empty nesters 49. When we hear someone say “The boy has got cabin fever”, we know that the boy is feeling_____. A. happy B. sick C. cold D. bored 50. According to the passage, What’s the meaning of empty nesters in Chinese? A. 空鸟笼 B. 空巢老人 C. 空鸟巢 D. 忙碌的筑巢者 【答案】46. D 47. C 48. A 49. D 50. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了与人们如何度过时间相关的几个术语，并对这些术语的定义、起源、流行情况以及相关的社会现象进行了说明和解释。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Some words are used to describe how a person spends his or her time.(有些词语是用来描述一个人如何度过时间的。)”以及下文围绕这一主题展开，分别介绍了“couch potato (电视迷)”、“mouse potato(电脑迷)”、“cabin fever(幽居病)”以及“nesting/cocooning(筑巢/茧居)”等与人们如何度过时间相关的术语。因此，文章介绍的术语主要与“时间”有关。故选D。 【47题详解】 词义猜测题。根据文章第一段“A couch is a piece of furniture that people sit on.(“couch”是一种人们用来坐的家具。)”可知，“couch”是一种人们可以坐在上面的家具。选项C“sofa”意为“沙发”也是一种供人坐的家具。故选C。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“He also helped write a funny book about life as a full-time television watcher. It is called “The Official Couch Potato Handbook.”(他还参与撰写了一本有趣的书，讲述了作为全职电视迷的生活。这本书名为《官方沙发土豆手册》。)”可知，，有一本名为《官方沙发土豆手册》的书是关于“couch potato” 这一术语的，是写全职电视迷的生活。故选A。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Too much time inside the house can cause someone to get cabin fever which isn’t really a disease. However, people can become bored if they spend too much time inside their homes. This especially happens during the winter when it is too cold or snowy to do things outside and even offices and stores are closed. Often children get cabin fever if they cannot go outside to play. So do their parents. (长时间待在室内可能会让人患上“幽居病”，不过这实际上并不是一种真正的疾病。然而，如果人们在室内待的时间过长，就会感到厌烦。这种情况尤其容易发生在冬天，因为天气太冷或者下雪，无法在室外活动，甚至连办公室和商店都关门了。如果孩子们不能到外面去玩，他们常常会患上“幽居病”。他们的父母也是如此。)”可知，“cabin fever”指的是因为长时间待在室内而感到厌烦、烦躁的状态。当我们听到有人说“The boy has got cabin fever”时，意思就是这个男孩因为长时间待在室内等原因而感到无聊、厌烦。故选D。 【50题详解】 词义猜测题。根据文章最后一段“They describe people buying their first homes and filling them with many things. These people then have children. When these children are grown and have left the nest, these parents will live alone in their empty nest and become empty nesters.(它们用来形容那些购买了自己的第一套房子，然后往家里添置很多东西的人。这些人随后有了孩子。当这些孩子长大成人离开家后，这些父母就会独自生活在空荡荡的家里，成为“empty nesters”。)”可知，“empty nesters”指的是孩子离开家后独自生活的父母，对应的中文意思就是“空巢老人”。故选B。 第二部分：综合运用 （共 35 分） IV． 综合填空 （1）单词拼写（共20小题，每题0.5分,共10分）根据上下文及所给的首字母或汉语意思写出单词，每空只填一词。 51.

On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin (顽童) was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car, Paul” he asked. Paul answered, “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing？Boy, I wish…” He hesitated (犹豫)． Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly. “I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.” Paul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?” “Oh yes, I’d love that.” After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, “Paul, would you mind driving in front of my house?” Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are? the boy asked. He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled (残疾的) brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car. “There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.” Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began an unforgettable holiday ride. 36. The street urchin was very surprised when ________. A.

The urchin asked Paul to stop his car in front of his house ________.

The best name of the name story is _________. A. A Christmas Present B. A Street Urchin C. A Brother Like That D. An Unforgettable Holiday Ride ( B ) If you want to help children develop language and speech skills, UCLA researchers say, listening to what they have to say is just as important as talking to them. The effect (影响) of a conversation between a child and an adult is about six times as great as the effect of adult speech input alone, the researchers found. “Adults speaking to children helps language develop, but what matters much more is the interaction (交流),” said the study’s lead author, Frederick Zimmerman, an associate professor in the School of Public Health at the University of California, Los Angeles. The researchers also found that TV viewing didn’t have much of an effect — positively or negatively — as long as it wasn’t displacing conversations between an adult and a child. The UCLA study included 275 families with children between 2 months and 48 months old. They represented a variety of incomes (收入) and education. The researchers found that, in an average day, children hear about 13,000 spoken words from adults and took part in about 400 adult­child conversations a day. Factors (因素) positively associated with language development included each additional (额外的) 100 conversations a day and each 1,000 word increase in the number of words spoken by adults and heard by children. When looked at alone, TV was negatively associated with language development. But, when the three factors were put together, the only one that stood out was conversation between adults and children. “The more a child speaks and interacts with an adult, the better idea a parent has about where the child is,” Zimmerman said. “Although it’s mostly done unconsciously (无意识地), parents will provide more information and correct mistakes. They’ll also tailor their speech to the child. Parents can give a child words by talking to them about what they’re doing, such as “I’m putting on your pajamas now.” “But give your child the opportunity to talk, hopefully without the rest of the noise in the environment,” she added. “If parents can spare some conversation time — maybe at bath time or at dinner time — that’s a wonderful thing.” 41. The researchers also found that TV viewing ________. A. could have a positive effect on a child’s language development B. had a little effect on a child’s language development C. affected a child’s language development more negatively than positively D. affected a child’s language development both negatively and positively 42.

The importance of early child language development ( C ) Some words are used to describe how a person spends his or her time. For example, someone who likes to spend too much time sitting or lying down while watching television is sometimes called a couch potato. A couch is a piece of furniture that people sit on. Robert Armstrong, an artist from California, developed the term (词语；术语) in 1976. Years later, he listed it as a trademark (商标) with the American government. He also helped write a funny book about life as a full-time television watcher. It is called “The Official Couch Potato Handbook”. Couch potatoes enjoy watching television just as mouse potatoes enjoy working on computers. A computer mouse is the thing that we use to move the pointer on a computer screen. The term became popular in 1993. American writer Alice Kahn invented the term to describe young people who spend a lot of time using computers. Too much time inside the house can cause someone to get cabin fever which isn’t really a disease. However, people can become bored if they spend too much time inside their homes. This especially happens during the winter when it is too cold or snowy to do things outside and even offices and stores are closed. Often children get cabin fever if they cannot go outside to play. So do their parents. Some people enjoy spending a lot of time in their homes to make them nice places to live in. This is called nesting or cocooning. Birds build nests to hold their eggs and baby birds. Some insects (昆虫) build cocoons around themselves for protection. Nests and cocoons provide safety for wildlife. So people like the idea of nests and cocoons, too. The terms became popular over 20 years ago. They describe people buying their first homes and filling them with many things. These people then have children. When these children are grown and have left the nest, these parents will live alone in their empty nest and become empty nesters. 46 The terms introduced in the passage are mainly connected with ____ .
