With a modern airliner (客机), you can travel in one day to faraway places. It used to take a month or more to get to those places a hundred years ago. Travelling by train is slower than by air, but it has its advantages. You can see the country you are travelling through. Modern trains have comfortable seats and dining cars. They make even the longest journey enjoyable. Some people like to travel by sea when it is possible. There are large liners (邮轮) and river boats. You can visit many other countries and different places. Travelling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday. Many people like to travel by car. You can make your own timetable. You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty or one hundred miles a day, just as you like. You can stop wherever you wish—where there is something interesting to see, at a good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal, or at a hotel to spend the night. That is why travelling by car is popular for pleasure trips, while people usually take a train or a plane when they are travelling on business. 21. The underlined word “advantages” in paragraph 2 means “________”. A. 优点 B. 特点 C. 弱点 D. 利益 22. People usually travel on business by ________. A. train or air B. boat or train C. plane or car D. car or taxi B “Can I have a glass of hot water?” This is a very common question in a restaurant. For many Chinese people, nothing is more common than drinking hot water every day. But this habit is like a mystery to people from other countries. For many Westerners, the idea of drinking hot water is very strange. But most Chinese people think the Americans’ habit of drinking icy water is also strange and even unhealthy. Chinese doctors are asking more people to take on the habit of drinking hot water, especially for women. But in Western countries, drinking hot water isn’t common. Westerners often have drinks with ice, not just on hot days but almost every day. There is a story about an Englishman, who worked in Beijing for over five years. He visited a café when going back to England. He asked for a glass of hot water in a British accent. But this requirement made the waitress surprised, “To…to…drink?” she asked. At last, the man got the hot water but felt cold stares (凝视) from every corner of the café. Westerners want to know why Chinese drink hot water as Chinese want to know why Westerners drink cold water. This cultural difference is not an easy problem, but related to (与……有关联) history, culture and science. Many young people now drink bottled water every day. With the young people growing up, will drinking hot water become a less popular life habit? Who knows? 23. What do Chinese think of drinking icy water from the passage? A Common and healthy. B. Strange but healthy. C. Common but unhealthy. D. Strange and unhealthy. 24. The underlined part in the fourth paragraph means other people in the café ____. A. were angry at the man's requirement B. followed the example of the man C. thought the man’s requirement was strange D. were interested in the man’s requirement 25. What would be the best title for the text? A. Healthy Life Habits B. Different Drinking Habits C. How to Drink Water D. Drinking Hot Water in China C ①The word “zhiyin”, which means close friends, comes from the story of Yu Boya and Zhong Ziqi in the Warring States Period. ②Boya was good at playing the guqin. One day, he was playing music on his way home on the boat. To Boya’s surprise, Ziqi, a woodcutter who happened to pass by, could really understand what he wanted to express through his music. After a long talk, they became good friends. Since Boya had to return to his state, they agreed to meet again in the following year. ③Unfortunately, when getting back to visit Ziqi, Boya heard that his friend had died from a disease (疾病). Boya was so sad and in front of Ziqi’s tomb (墓), he played again the music he had played when they first met. The feeling of the music was so strong that it was as if the rivers and the mountains were crying. When finishing playing, Boya broke his guqin into pieces. From then on, Boya never played again. ④People in the Song Dynasty built the Guqin Tai in Hanyang to the memory of the deep friendship between Boya and Ziqi. It became an important part of the local culture. ⑤Zhiyin culture has new development in the new period. The famous ancient Chinese classical (古典的) music piece Gaoshan Liushui was performed during the G20 Summit in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province in 2016. The musical performance not only showed the beauty of traditional Chinese culture, but also expressed China’s willingness to develop its friendship with people from around the world. 26. Why did Boya and Ziqi become good friends? A They often went out on boat. B. They often cut wood together. C. Ziqi could understand Boya’s music. D. They often played music together. 27. Which of the following can best show the main idea of the story? A. Both together do best of all. B. A true friend is hard to find. C. Old friends and old wine are best. D. A friend to everybody is a friend to nobody. 28. Which of the following best shows the structure (结构) of the passage? A. B. C. D. 五、信息还原（共5小题，每小题1分，计5分） ____29____ Friends are important in our life, because no one wants to be lonely. However, some people have difficulty in making friends and they often feel lonely. ____30____ According to new study from Chicago University, the reason is that this kind of people have brain (脑) different from common people.

That’s because most people don’t show their true selves (自己) there,” said Dr. Cacioppo, one of this study’s scientists. Another step is to get an action plan. As “actions speak louder than words”, people need to be active to communicate with others. They also need to meet people with the same interests. Also, they should try to expect the best from each activity. ____33____ Who knows what good things they will have? A. People who feel lonely B. The first step is to accept social (社会的) invitations even if you don’t want to go. C. After all, “tomorrow is another day”. D. What’s the reason behind that? E. New ways to deal with loneliness F.

A. a; a B. an; / C. a; / D. /; a 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们在公园里玩了一个小时。很有趣！ 考查冠词的用法。根据“played for... hour”可知是玩了一个小时，hour的发音以元音音素开头，其前应用冠词an；后句中fun是不可数名词，其前不加冠词。故选B。 2. —How long _______ his grandpa __________? —________ two years ago. A. did; die; Since B. has; been dead; For C. did; die; For D. has; been dead; Since 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——他的爷爷去世多长时间了？——自从两年以前。 考查动词的时态。for后跟时间段，since后跟时间点。two years ago为时间点，故排除B、C；die为短暂性动词，不能与表示一段的时间状语连用，故选D。 3.

When I looked into the room, I found Philip himself ________ in bed. A. lies B. lie C. lay D. lying 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：当我往屋里面看的时候，我发现Philip正躺在床上。 本题考查非谓语动词。find sb. doing sth.表示“发现某人正在做某事”，find sb. do sth.表示“某人经常做某事”。结合语境分析可知，此处应为发现“Philip”正躺在床上。故选D。 5. Diana used to ________ to work, but now she is used to ________ because the road is crowded and she wants to keep fit. A. drive; walk B. drive; walking C. driving; walk D. driving; walking 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：戴安娜过去常开车去上班，但是现在她习惯走路，因为道路很拥挤而且她想保持健康。 考查非谓语动词。第一空表达“过去常做某事”，用“used to do”。表达“过去常开车”，用 “used to drive”。第二空表达“习惯于做某事”，用“be used to doing”。表达“习惯走”，用“is used to walking”。故选B。 6. ---I think you should stop ______ him in English. ---I see. He can’t understand English at all. Let me try in French. A. talking to B. to talk to C. talk to D. to talking to 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】试题分析：句意：-我觉得你应该停止和他用英语交谈。-我明白。他一点也不懂英语。让我尝试用法语吧。Stop doing sth停止正在做的事；stop to do sth停下来去做某事。所以选A。 考点：考查非谓语动词。 7. —Can we meet at 9 o’clock tomorrow morning? —Sorry, let’s make it ________ time. A. others B. the other C. another D. other 【答案】C 【解析】 【分析】 【详解】句意：——我们明天早上九点见面可以吗？——对不起，我们约另外一个时间吧。 考查不定代词。others其他的人或事，代词、指代复数名词；the other（两者中的）另外一个；another另外的，形容词；other其他的，形容词；根据“Sorry”可知此处指“约另外的时间”；故选C。 8 —Where is your father? —He_______ Australia and he _______ Sydney for two weeks. A. has been to; has been in B. has gone to; has been in C has been in; has been to D. has gone to; has been to 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你的父亲在哪里？——他去了澳大利亚，在悉尼待了两周了。 考查现在完成时。has been to曾经去过某地；has gone to已经去了某地；has been in待在某地。根据“Where is your father?”可知，爸爸还没有回来，所以第一空用has gone to；根据“he…Sydney for two weeks”可知，此处指“他在悉尼待了两周了”，故第二空填has been in。故选B。 9. The teacher always reads a story for the children ______ a day . A. in the end B. at the end C. in the end of D. at the end of 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：在一天的结束时老师总是为孩子们读一个故事。 考查短语辨析。in the end终于，最后；at the end在终点，在末端； in the end of在……结尾（多用于事情）；at the end of在……尽头，在……结束时（多用于时间）。根据语境可知，这里指的是一天的结束时，故选D。 10. —Have you finished your homework? —_______.

Of course 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你完成作业了吗？——还没有。对我来说在这么短的时间内完成它很难。 考查情景交际。Not yet还没有；I hope not我希望不是；I think so我认为是这样；Of course当然。根据“It’s difficult for me to finish it in such a short time.”可知，作业还没有完成，故选A。 三、完形填空（共10小题，每小题1分，计10分） One day I got into a taxi and we took off for the airport.

For many Chinese people, nothing is more common than drinking hot water every day. But this habit is like a mystery to people from other countries. For many Westerners, the idea of drinking hot water is very strange. But most Chinese people think the Americans’ habit of drinking icy water is also strange and even unhealthy. Chinese doctors are asking more people to take on the habit of drinking hot water, especially for women. But in Western countries, drinking hot water isn’t common. Westerners often have drinks with ice, not just on hot days but almost every day. There is a story about an Englishman, who worked in Beijing for over five years. He visited a café when going back to England. He asked for a glass of hot water in a British accent. But this requirement made the waitress surprised, “To…to…drink?” she asked. At last, the man got the hot water but felt cold stares (凝视) from every corner of the café. Westerners want to know why Chinese drink hot water as Chinese want to know why Westerners drink cold water.

With the young people growing up, will drinking hot water become a less popular life habit? Who knows? 23. What do Chinese think of drinking icy water from the passage? A. Common and healthy. B.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要描述的是中国与西方喝水文化习惯的不同。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据“But most Chinese people think the Americans’ habit of drinking icy water is also strange and even unhealthy.”可知，中国人觉得喝冰水很奇怪，甚至不健康。故选D。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“But this requirement made the waitress surprised, “To…to…drink?” she asked. At last, the man got the hot water but felt cold stares (凝视) from every corner of the café.”可知，他要一杯热水，结果服务员又吃惊又怀疑地再三确认是不是要来喝的，推测他要热水的要求在咖啡馆里的人看来是一个奇怪的请求，故选C。 【25题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述中国和西方喝水文化的不同，选项B“不同的饮水习惯”符合文章主题。故选B。 C ①The word “zhiyin”, which means close friends, comes from the story of Yu Boya and Zhong Ziqi in the Warring States Period. ②Boya was good at playing the guqin. One day, he was playing music on his way home on the boat. To Boya’s surprise, Ziqi, a woodcutter who happened to pass by, could really understand what he wanted to express through his music. After a long talk, they became good friends. Since Boya had to return to his state, they agreed to meet again in the following year. ③Unfortunately, when getting back to visit Ziqi, Boya heard that his friend had died from a disease (疾病). Boya was so sad and in front of Ziqi’s tomb (墓), he played again the music he had played when they first met. The feeling of the music was so strong that it was as if the rivers and the mountains were crying. When finishing playing, Boya broke his guqin into pieces. From then on, Boya never played again. ④People in the Song Dynasty built the Guqin Tai in Hanyang to the memory of the deep friendship between Boya and Ziqi. It became an important part of the local culture. ⑤Zhiyin culture has new development in the new period. The famous ancient Chinese classical (古典的) music piece Gaoshan Liushui was performed during the G20 Summit in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province in 2016. The musical performance not only showed the beauty of traditional Chinese culture, but also expressed China’s willingness to develop its friendship with people from around the world. 26.

And they often feel unsafe when facing strangers. Does that mean they have no way to become happy again? ____31____ Scientists of this study have thought up ways to help these people deal with their loneliness (孤独). They provided four steps (步骤) for getting out loneliness. ____32____ “It’s not enough for people just to get in touch with others online. That’s because most people don’t show their true selves (自己) there,” said Dr. Cacioppo, one of this study’s scientists. Another step is to get an action plan. As “actions speak louder than words”, people need to be active to communicate with others. They also need to meet people with the same interests.
