Large cities are, in many ways, fantastic places to live. They usually have the best schools, biggest companies and best hospitals. However, they are also crowded, as people from small towns choose to live in large cities for school or work.
Tokyo, the capital of Japan, is a big city with 13.93 million people. The Japanese government (政府) is thinking about paying people to leave the city. And it is planning to offer 3 million yen (日元) to people who decided to move and find a job elsewhere.
This is because the city is getting too crowded (拥挤的). According to NIIK, Tokyo and the areas around it have a total population (人口) of about 38 million. The number of people moving to the areas has been greater than the number of people who have left for the last 22 years. About one out of every three people in Japan lives in Tokyo.
This has put a lot of pressure on transportation (交通), hospitals and other public services (公共服务) of the city. What’s more, there has been a population drop (人口下降) in other parts of Japan. Young people in those places leave and never return. Villages (村庄) and towns in the countryside are mainly made up of old people those days. Schools are closing and nobody will work on the farm.
For many years, Japan’s government has tried to move people away from the capital and help rebuild (重建) the countryside. Some local governments have used tax cuts (减税) to encourage (鼓励) companies to come back. But it doesn’t work well. Top schools and companies are all in Tokyo, so leaving the capital seems to be a bad decision (决定) for most people.
24. How will the Japanese government make people leave Tokyo?
A. By giving less public services. B. By giving them money.
C. By increasing (增加) house prices. D. By making a law.
25. In Paragraph 3, the writer uses statistics (数据) to show ________.
A. Tokyo is a fantastic place to live B. Tokyo is becoming too crowded
C. Tokyo is a city with a long history D. Tokyo has developed fast over the years
26. From the passage, we can infer (推断) that ________.
A. Tokyo is the biggest city in Japan B. there will be fewer old people in the village
C. companies in Japan don’t need to pay tax (付税) D. people won’t leave Tokyo in a short time
【答案】24. B 25. B 26. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了日本东京因人口过多而面临的压力,以及日本政府为了缓解这一问题所采取的措施。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。 根据“The Japanese government is thinking about paying people to leave the city. And it is planning to offer 3 million yen to people who decided to move and find a job elsewhere.”可知日本政府计划通过提供金钱的方式来鼓励人们离开东京。故选B。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。 根据“According to NIIK, Tokyo and the areas around it have a total population of about 38 million. The number of people moving to the areas has been greater than the number of people who have left for the last 22 years.”可知作者使用统计数据来说明东京变得越来越拥挤。故选B。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。 根据“Top schools and companies are all in Tokyo, so leaving the capital seems to be a bad decision for most people.”可知在短时间内人们不太可能离开东京。故选D。
C
I saved the grain (谷物) carefully and finally had enough to plant. I built a wall around my garden to keep the wild goats away.
Then when my crop bore its fruit, the birds found it. The birds were not afraid of my dog at all. I shot (射击) them but as soon as I walked away, they came back. At last, I killed some birds and hung (悬挂) them among the crop, hoping they would make the birds afraid and fly away, which turned out to be successful (成功的). By harvest time, I had nearly two bushels of rice and two and a half bushels of wheat.
With my new grain to store (储存), I found a new problem. I needed something new to store the fine grain because it ran through my baskets easily. Finally, it took me nearly two months to dry two ugly pots (容器)—one for rice and one for wheat.
Next I formed a clay oven (黏土烤炉) and made some other tools from hard wood and cloth to bake (烘烤) bread. I made and baked bread in my oven. I spent the third year on the island in farming and baking. Soon after that, I began to think of my days sailing in a tidy boat with Xury. I wished to have a boat and explore (探索) the island by sea.
I still decided to have a boat. So I chose a strong tree and spent weeks cutting it down. Then it took me months to turn it from tree to boat.
When it was time to set off, I realized I had made my boat too far from the nearest stream. The boat was far too heavy for me to move. I tried bringing the water to the boat instead of the boat to the water. I soon saw it would take me twenty years of work.
I celebrated my fourth year on the island with two boats, but I was no closer to a sea journey.
27 What made the bird afraid?
A. Wild goats. B. His dog. C. Dead birds. D. Wolves.
28. What does the underlined phrase “a new problem” in Paragraph 3 refer to (指代)?
A. How to plant grain. B. How to make pots. C. How to fix the baskets. D. How to store grain.
29. Which word can be used to describe Robinson’s personality (个性)?
A. Honest. B. Active. C. impatient (急躁的). D. Lazy.
30. What can we infer (推断) from the passage?
A. Robinson managed (设法完成) to catch the wild goat.
B. Robinson tried to solve the problems with his courage (勇气) and wisdom (智慧).
C. Robinson spent months bringing the boat to the nearest stream.
D. Robinson spent the third year on the island in farming and baking.
【答案】27. C 28. D 29. B 30. B
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了Robinson在岛上的生活经历,详细描述了他如何解决一系列生存问题。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据文中“At last, I killed some birds and hung them among the crop, hoping they would make the birds afraid and fly away, which turned out to be successful.”可知,Robinson杀死了一些鸟并将它们挂在庄稼中,希望这能让其他鸟害怕并飞走,最终成功了。因此,让鸟害怕的是死鸟。故选C。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据文中“With my new grain to store, I found a new problem. I needed something new to store the fine grain because it ran through my baskets easily.”可知,Robinson发现了一个新问题,即如何储存细粮,因为细粮很容易从篮子中漏出。因此,“a new problem”指是如何储存粮食。故选D。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据文中Robinson不断尝试解决问题、种植粮食、制作工具和船的行为,可以看出他是一个积极、主动的人。因此,描述Robinson个性的词是“Active”。故选B。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据文中Robinson通过杀死鸟并将其挂在庄稼中、制作储存粮食的容器、制作工具和船等行为,可以看出他通过勇气和智慧解决了问题。因此,我们可以推断Robinson用勇气和智慧解决问题。故选B。

China has many special forms of traditional art. They are usually used to represent things that are important in life such as love, beauty and family.
It was said that sky lanterns were first used by Zhuge Liang. He sent them out to ask for help when in trouble. They are made of bamboo and covered with paper. Sky lanterns are used at festivals and other celebrations today. They are seen as bright symbols of happiness and good wishes.
Chinese paper-cutting has been around for more than 1,500 years. It may sound very easy but is difficult to practise. The paper, usually red, is folded (折叠) before it is cut with scissors. The most common pictures are flowers, animals and things about Chinese history. During the Spring Festival, they are put up on windows, doors and walls as symbols of wishes for good luck and a happy new year.
Chinese clay (泥塑) art is famous because the clay pieces are so small but they look very real. The pieces are carefully shaped by hand from a very special kind of clay and then allowed to air-dry. After drying, they are fired at a very high heat. Then they are painted after polishing (抛光). Finally, materials such as wood or paper are added as decorations (装饰). It takes several weeks to complete everything. These small pieces of clay art show the love that all Chinese people have for life and beauty.

Great Changes in My Hometown
With the development of technology, great changes have taken place in my hometown over the years.
In the past, the roads here were narrow and dirty. The houses were very old and small. The air was not fresh, and sometimes there was a terrible smell. What’s more, there was much rubbish in the river.
Now, the roads have become wide and clean. We can choose different kinds of transportation to go anywhere. Lots of tall buildings have been built in the city. Most of us have moved into big and beautiful houses. The river is much cleaner. My hometown looks like a big garden with green grass and colorful flowers.
In my opinion, these changes make our life more comfortable. How great they are!

Large cities are, in many ways, fantastic places to live. They usually have the best schools, biggest companies and best hospitals. However, they are also crowded, as people from small towns choose to live in large cities for school or work.
Tokyo, the capital of Japan, is a big city with 13.93 million people. The Japanese government (政府) is thinking about paying people to leave the city. And it is planning to offer 3 million yen (日元) to people who decided to move and find a job elsewhere.
This is because the city is getting too crowded (拥挤的). According to NIIK, Tokyo and the areas around it have a total population (人口) of about 38 million. The number of people moving to the areas has been greater than the number of people who have left for the last 22 years. About one out of every three people in Japan lives in Tokyo.
This has put a lot of pressure on transportation (交通), hospitals and other public services (公共服务) of the city. What’s more, there has been a population drop (人口下降) in other parts of Japan. Young people in those places leave and never return. Villages (村庄) and towns in the countryside are mainly made up of old people those days. Schools are closing and nobody will work on the farm.
For many years, Japan’s government has tried to move people away from the capital and help rebuild (重建) the countryside. Some local governments have used tax cuts (减税) to encourage (鼓励) companies to come back. But it doesn’t work well. Top schools and companies are all in Tokyo, so leaving the capital seems to be a bad decision (决定) for most people.
24. How will the Japanese government make people leave Tokyo?
A. By giving less public services. B. By giving them money.
C. By increasing (增加) house prices. D. By making a law.
25. In Paragraph 3, the writer uses statistics (数据) to show ________.
A. Tokyo is a fantastic place to live B. Tokyo is becoming too crowded
C. Tokyo is a city with a long history D. Tokyo has developed fast over the years
26. From the passage, we can infer (推断) that ________.
A. Tokyo is the biggest city in Japan B. there will be fewer old people in the village
C. companies in Japan don’t need to pay tax (付税) D. people won’t leave Tokyo in a short time
C
I saved the grain (谷物) carefully and finally had enough to plant. I built a wall around my garden to keep the wild goats away.
Then when my crop bore its fruit, the birds found it. The birds were not afraid of my dog at all. I shot (射击) them but as soon as I walked away, they came back. At last, I killed some birds and hung (悬挂) them among the crop, hoping they would make the birds afraid and fly away, which turned out to be successful (成功的). By harvest time, I had nearly two bushels of rice and two and a half bushels of wheat.
With my new grain to store (储存), I found a new problem. I needed something new to store the fine grain because it ran through my baskets easily. Finally, it took me nearly two months to dry two ugly pots (容器)—one for rice and one for wheat.
Next I formed a clay oven (黏土烤炉) and made some other tools from hard wood and cloth to bake (烘烤) bread. I made and baked bread in my oven. I spent the third year on the island in farming and baking. Soon after that, I began to think of my days sailing in a tidy boat with Xury. I wished to have a boat and explore (探索) the island by sea.
I still decided to have a boat. So I chose a strong tree and spent weeks cutting it down. Then it took me months to turn it from tree to boat.
When it was time to set off, I realized I had made my boat too far from the nearest stream. The boat was far too heavy for me to move. I tried bringing the water to the boat instead of the boat to the water. I soon saw it would take me twenty years of work.
I celebrated my fourth year on the island with two boats, but I was no closer to a sea journey.
27. What made the bird afraid?
A. Wild goats. B. His dog. C. Dead birds. D. Wolves.
28. What does the underlined phrase “a new problem” in Paragraph 3 refer to (指代)?
A. How to plant grain. B. How to make pots. C. How to fix the baskets. D. How to store grain.
29. Which word can be used to describe Robinson’s personality (个性)?
A. Honest. B. Active. C. impatient (急躁的). D. Lazy.
30. What can we infer (推断) from the passage?
A Robinson managed (设法完成) to catch the wild goat.
B. Robinson tried to solve the problems with his courage (勇气) and wisdom (智慧).
C. Robinson spent months bringing the boat to the nearest stream.
D. Robinson spent the third year on the island in farming and baking.
