Male (雄性的) birds have bright blue feathers on their upper parts and pale white or yellow feathers below. They also have a black eye mask and throat patch. Female (雌性的) birds are less colourful, with olive brown feathers and less noticeable markings. The Hainan blue flycatcher does not move to other places. It stays in its living place all year long. Some birds in Shenzhen have come from northern Guangdong and decided to stay there. These birds are very good at catching insects while flying. They eat different types of insects, like flies, beetles, caterpillars, and spiders. By eating these insects, the birds help control these populations and keep the living world balanced. The breeding (繁殖) season for the Hainan blue flycatcher is between March and June. During this time, female birds lay up to four eggs. Both the male and female birds take care of the eggs for about two weeks. They both also feed and care for the baby birds once they are born. After a couple of weeks, the baby birds learn to fly and the family grows larger. The young birds then leave the homes and become independent not long after that. Many people like to watch the Hainan blue flycatcher because of its beautiful colours and interesting behaviour. The bird’s lovely songs and bright feathers make it a wonderful sight to see. This helps people like and want to protect the natural living places where the Hainan blue flycatcher lives. 11．Where can the Hainan blue flycatcher often be found? A．Hainan’s noticeable thick forest. B．Shenzhen’s patch of woodlands. C．Shenzhen’s forests and woodlands. D．Hainan’s nearby water area. 12．What does the underlined word “these” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．Spiders. B．Birds. C．Flies. D．Insects. 13．Which is TRUE about the bird’s breeding season? A．Only the mother takes care of the eggs. B．The father is responsible for the feeding. C．Both parents take good care of the babies. D．The birds won’t grow until being independent. 14．What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards the flycatchers’ life state? A．Positive. B．Worried. C．Puzzled. D．Disappointed. 15．In which part of a newspaper can we probably find the passage? A．People. B．Nature. C．Review. D．News. 【答案】11．C 12．D 13．C 14．A 15．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了海南蓝蝇的相关信息。 11．细节理解题。根据“Living in Shenzhen’s thick forests and woodlands, the Hainan blue flycatcher is a bird”可知海南蓝蝇生活在深圳茂密的森林和林地中。故选C。 12．词义猜测题。根据“By eating these insects, the birds help control these populations and keep the living world balanced.”可知通过吃这些昆虫，鸟类有助于控制这些种群，并保持生活世界的平衡，故此处these指代“昆虫”。故选D。 13．细节理解题。根据“Both the male and female birds take care of the eggs for about two weeks. They both also feed and care for the baby birds once they are born”可知雄鸟和雌鸟都要照顾宝宝。故选C。 14．观点态度题。根据“The bird’s lovely songs and bright feathers make it a wonderful sight to see. This helps people like and want to protect the natural living places where the Hainan blue flycatcher lives.”可知这种鸟可爱的歌声和鲜艳的羽毛使它成为一道美丽的风景线，这有助于人们喜欢并希望保护海南蓝蝇生活的自然栖息地，所以作者是持积极态度。故选A。 15．推理判断题。本文主要介绍了海南蓝蝇的相关信息，故文章可能出现在报纸的自然部分。故选B。 B We are told that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and are given lunch breaks at school. However, is this the healthiest way to eat? Should we eat three meals a day? Before considering how often we should eat, scientists advise us to consider when we shouldn’t. Intermittent fasting (间歇性断食), where you stop eating food for many hours, has become a popular area of research. It allows our stomach to rest. It helps our body to clear broken proteins (蛋白质), which protects us against many diseases. But if intermittent fasting is a healthy way to eat, how many meals does this leave room for? Some experts argue that it is best to have one meal a day. David Levitsky, professor at Cornell University, does this himself. Wouldn’t one meal a day leave us feeling hungry? Not always, because hunger is often a feeling. “When the clock says 12p. m., we may get feelings to eat, but before we had fridges and supermarkets, we ate when there was food.” Another expert, Manoogan, doesn’t agree with it. He says it can make our blood glucose (血糖) go up. To keep our blood glucose low, we need to eat regularly. Two or three meals a day is the best. And we should eat most of our food earlier in the day. “Then our bodies can use the energy from our food all day, instead of saving it as fat (脂肪).” Even if intermittent fasting is the healthiest way to eat, it may not be a good idea for everyone. If you want to try it, remember to check with your doctor first. 16．How does the writer introduce the topic? A．By telling a story. B．By asking questions. C．By using a saying. D．By making a comparison. 17．Which benefits can intermittent fasting bring? ①Fixing broken proteins.         ②Allowing the stomach to rest. ③Helping scientists do research.     ④Keeping us safe from some illness. A．①②③ B．②③④ C．①②④ D．①③④ 18．Why does Levitsky say that one meal a day might not leave us feeling hungry? A．Because our bodies can save food as fat. B．Because we have fridges and supermarkets. C．Because we can choose to eat whenever we want. D．Because we often eat out of habit, not true hunger. 19．What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．One meal a day. B．Three meals a day. C．Intermittent fasting. D．Eating much at night. 20．What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph? A．We can’t do anything until we know more. B．Doctors suggest we try intermittent fasting. C．Intermittent fasting doesn’t work for everyone. D．Seeing the doctor is the best way to become healthy. 【答案】16．B 17．C 18．D 19．A 20．C 【导语】本文主要讨论了间歇性断食的健康效益，以及每天应该吃几餐的问题。 16．细节理解题。根据文章第一段的内容，作者通过提出问题的方式引入了主题，故选B。 17．细节理解题。根据“Intermittent fasting (间歇性断食), where you stop eating food for many hours, has become a popular area of research. It allows our stomach to rest. It helps our body to clear broken proteins (蛋白质), which protects us against many diseases.”的内容，间歇性断食可以修复破损的蛋白质，让胃部休息，保护我们免受许多疾病的侵害，故选C。 18．推理判断题。根据“When the clock says 12p. m., we may get feelings to eat, but before we had fridges and supermarkets, we ate when there was food.”可知，Levitsky认为，我们经常是出于习惯而吃东西，而不是真正的饥饿，故选D。 19．词句猜测题。根据“Another expert, Manoogan, doesn’t agree with it.”和“Some experts argue that it is best to have one meal a day.”可知，Manoogan不同意的是每天只吃一餐的观点，故选A。 20．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的内容，作者想要告诉我们的是，间歇性断食可能并不适合每个人，如果你想尝试它，记得先咨询医生，故选C。 阅读下面短文、从短文后的选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 C A survey shows that the number of lonely adults is increasing. According to recent research, loneliness can have harmful effects on health. So if you feel lonely at times, be sure to care about it. Here are some tips for you to avoid being lonely. Make time to meet people Maybe it seems that you don’t have time to meet new friends, but you need to consider your social life first. 21 You can even offer to take a neighbor’s dog for a walk. The neighbor will surely like to make friends with you. Build your community online Without doubt, it’s difficult for you to move to meet like-minded people. However, the Internet can easily bring people with the same interests together. 22 Try some safe meetup websites, which list local groups and events, bringing people with common interests together. Know more about your friends In order to find possible friends, try to know more about them. What do they like doing? Join one of their activities. What subject (话题) are they interested in? 23 In this way, you can know each other much better. Work as volunteers Volunteering is good for both body and mind. It gives you the chance to communicate with people. Helping at the local food store or in a charity (慈善) shop will give you a warm feeling and you’ll get to know other volunteers. 24 Plan ahead 25 Rather than just suggesting meeting together, carry it out with an exact date and a careful plan. If you plan to meet more people, making a survey about the plan ahead of time will make the meeting more successful. A．Find out more about it and discuss it with them. B．So it is easy to build an online friend community. C．There are so many ways you can talk face to face now. D．Everyone’s busy, so getting people together needs a good plan. E．It’ll also give you something to talk about with friends and family. F．Instead of checking your phone, go for a walk and chat with someone. 【答案】21．F 22．B 23．A 24．E 25．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了如何避免孤独。 21．根据“Maybe it seems that you don’t have time to meet new friends, but you need to consider your social life first”可知要花费时间和别人见面聊天，选项F“与其看你的手机，不如去散步，和别人聊天”符合语境。故选F。 22．根据“Build your community online”可知要建立在线社区，选项B“因此，建立一个在线朋友社区很容易”符合语境。故选B。 23．根据“Know more about your friends”可知要多了解你的朋友，选项A“了解更多信息并与他们讨论”符合语境。故选A。 24．根据“Helping at the local food store or in a charity (慈善) shop will give you a warm feeling and you’ll get to know other volunteers”可知此处继续介绍帮助别人的好处，选项E“它也会给你一些与朋友和家人谈论的东西”符合语境。故选E。 25．根据“Plan ahead”可知要提前计划，选项D“每个人都很忙，所以让人们聚在一起需要一个好的计划”符合语境。故选D。 三．阅读匹配 （共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分） 下面的材料A-F介绍了六部不同的电影，请根据下面五位同学的个人情况，帮他们选择适合他们看的电影。 26 Lily is in Grade Seven.

Male (雄性的) birds have bright blue feathers on their upper parts and pale white or yellow feathers below. They also have a black eye mask and throat patch. Female (雌性的) birds are less colourful, with olive brown feathers and less noticeable markings. The Hainan blue flycatcher does not move to other places. It stays in its living place all year long. Some birds in Shenzhen have come from northern Guangdong and decided to stay there. These birds are very good at catching insects while flying. They eat different types of insects, like flies, beetles, caterpillars, and spiders. By eating these insects, the birds help control these populations and keep the living world balanced. The breeding (繁殖) season for the Hainan blue flycatcher is between March and June. During this time, female birds lay up to four eggs. Both the male and female birds take care of the eggs for about two weeks. They both also feed and care for the baby birds once they are born. After a couple of weeks, the baby birds learn to fly and the family grows larger. The young birds then leave the homes and become independent not long after that. Many people like to watch the Hainan blue flycatcher because of its beautiful colours and interesting behaviour. The bird’s lovely songs and bright feathers make it a wonderful sight to see. This helps people like and want to protect the natural living places where the Hainan blue flycatcher lives. 11．Where can the Hainan blue flycatcher often be found? A．Hainan’s noticeable thick forest. B．Shenzhen’s patch of woodlands. C．Shenzhen’s forests and woodlands. D．Hainan’s nearby water area. 12．What does the underlined word “these” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．Spiders. B．Birds. C．Flies. D．Insects. 13．Which is TRUE about the bird’s breeding season? A．Only the mother takes care of the eggs. B．The father is responsible for the feeding. C．Both parents take good care of the babies. D．The birds won’t grow until being independent. 14．What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards the flycatchers’ life state? A．Positive. B．Worried. C．Puzzled. D．Disappointed. 15．In which part of a newspaper can we probably find the passage? A．People. B．Nature. C．Review. D．News. B We are told that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and are given lunch breaks at school. However, is this the healthiest way to eat? Should we eat three meals a day? Before considering how often we should eat, scientists advise us to consider when we shouldn’t. Intermittent fasting (间歇性断食), where you stop eating food for many hours, has become a popular area of research. It allows our stomach to rest. It helps our body to clear broken proteins (蛋白质), which protects us against many diseases. But if intermittent fasting is a healthy way to eat, how many meals does this leave room for? Some experts argue that it is best to have one meal a day. David Levitsky, professor at Cornell University, does this himself. Wouldn’t one meal a day leave us feeling hungry? Not always, because hunger is often a feeling. “When the clock says 12p. m., we may get feelings to eat, but before we had fridges and supermarkets, we ate when there was food.” Another expert, Manoogan, doesn’t agree with it. He says it can make our blood glucose (血糖) go up. To keep our blood glucose low, we need to eat regularly. Two or three meals a day is the best. And we should eat most of our food earlier in the day. “Then our bodies can use the energy from our food all day, instead of saving it as fat (脂肪).” Even if intermittent fasting is the healthiest way to eat, it may not be a good idea for everyone. If you want to try it, remember to check with your doctor first. 16．How does the writer introduce the topic? A．By telling a story. B．By asking questions. C．By using a saying. D．By making a comparison. 17．Which benefits can intermittent fasting bring? ①Fixing broken proteins.         ②Allowing the stomach to rest. ③Helping scientists do research.     ④Keeping us safe from some illness. A．①②③ B．②③④ C．①②④ D．①③④ 18．Why does Levitsky say that one meal a day might not leave us feeling hungry? A．Because our bodies can save food as fat. B．Because we have fridges and supermarkets. C．Because we can choose to eat whenever we want. D．Because we often eat out of habit, not true hunger. 19．What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．One meal a day. B．Three meals a day. C．Intermittent fasting. D．Eating much at night. 20．What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph? A．We can’t do anything until we know more. B．Doctors suggest we try intermittent fasting. C．Intermittent fasting doesn’t work for everyone. D．Seeing the doctor is the best way to become healthy.
