Spiders weigh almost nothing. Yet they are stronger than steel. In fact some spiders’ webs are among the world’s strongest materials, but they can be pulled longer than elastic (橡皮筋). They can also be any shape. Spider webs are amazing.
A spider has hundreds of small openings in its body. Silk comes out of these openings as a liquid, and, as it r____51____ the air, it becomes thread-like. These tiny threads (线) come together to form a single thread.
The spider can make many different kinds of thread (线). The thread can be thick or thin, wet or dry, or sticky. Each kind has a different p_____52_____. Some webs create an egg box. Others provide hiding places. The most common, however, is to catch food.
There are many ways the spider uses its web to catch food. For example, some spiders produce a single thread. An insect then sits on it without realizing what it is doing, and becomes s____53____ . Slowly, the spider moves towards the insect. Suddenly, it covers its food in silk.
Some spiders use a different kind of t____54____. They make webs that cheat insects. An insect sees the web and thinks it’s a flower. It then lands on the web. The spider can feel even the smallest m_____55_____ of the web, and rushes at the insect before it can get away.

D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(12分)
Answer the questions (根据以下内容回答问题)
When was the last time you left home without your mobile phone? Can you imagine yourself living a month, or even a year without checking your mobile phone from time to time?
As a busy modern person with lots of social connections, plans and responsibilities, I just cannot afford to not be in touch with the rest of the world. Staying connected to other people is a big part of my life. However, sometimes it can be bothersome (恼人的).
One day I discovered I was terribly tired out. I tried turning notifications (通知) off. But the fear of missing out something important made me check the phone more often than before. So, I simply stopped using my phone.
Well, to tell the truth, it was not simple at all. For the first couple of days. I had a big fear that all of my friends would soon forget about me. When I had a free moment, I had no idea what to get myself distracted (分心的) with, and the worries mixed with boredom kept bothering me.
However, after three weeks without a mobile phone. I started noticing changes— changes which I liked, and which drove me to not just continue the experiment, but in fact to reorganize some of my habits.
First of all, I noticed that I became much more focused. Before, while doing something, I would often find myself wondering what was going on online. After a month of staying away from my mobile phone, I found that the desire was already not that strong and that my ability to focus improved.
I discovered that the world is a beautiful place. Before, I would look at it through my camera mostly: take a photo, post it, and get some likes. Now, I saw beautiful people walking around and I sensed the seasons change. I could understand the actual beauty of the world, and I did not need anyone else to prove the value of this beauty through likes or shares.
Now, as 100 days have passed, I can say that the experiment was worth it. I am planning to stay away from my phone for as long as possible.
58. What made the writer check the phone more often than before?
___________________________________________
59. The writer didn’t feel worried and bored in the first few days, did he?
___________________________________________
60. When did the writer start noticing his changes?
___________________________________________
61. What were the changes the writer mentioned in this passage?
Becoming much more focused and _______________________.
62. How did the writer look at the beautiful world before?
___________________________________________
63. Would you like to follow the writer's example? Why or why not? (Please give at least two reasons.)
___________________________________________
VI. Writing(作文)(共20分)
64. Write at least 60 words according to the given situation. (根据以下情境写一篇不少于60个词短文,标点符号不占格。)
善于合作是一种重要能力。近期你校英语社团将举办以“Work Together, Enjoy Teamwork”为主题的征文活动,请写一篇短文,介绍你与他人合作的一次活动经历并谈谈你的感受。活动内容可以是taking part in a ball match, doing social practice, making a poster…

英语试卷
(考试时间:90分钟满分:140分)
Part2 Grammar and Vocabulary(第二部分语法和词汇)
Ⅱ. Choose the best answer(选择最恰当的答案)(共15分,每题只有一个正确选项)
1. Shopping online is really ________ useful and convenient way for us to buy what we want.
A. a B. an C. the D. /
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:网上购物对我们来说真的是一种有用和方便的方式来购买我们想要的东西。
考查冠词。a/ an一个,表泛指;a用于辅音音素开头的单词前。an用于元音音素开头的单词前;the定冠词,表特指;/零冠词;根据句意理解可知,这里表达的是“一种有用的方式”,所以应该用不定冠词,而useful是辅音音素开头的单词,所以应该用a,故选A。
【点睛】不定冠词用在单数可数名词,表示泛指或数量“一”。a/ an的用法要根据所修饰单词的发音来判断而不是字母。元音音素开头的单词用an,辅音音素开头的单词用a。比如:an apple,an important meeting,a useful book,a university
2. Mr. Lee is always strict _________ us in class, but friendly out of class.
A. with B. for C. on D. at
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:李先生在上课时对我们总是很严格,但在课外却很友好。

3. Tom __________ any help because he can finish the work on time himself.
A. needn’t B. doesn’t need to C. doesn’t need D. needn’t to
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:汤姆不需要任何帮助,因他可以自己按时完成工作。
考查实义动词。need可以作情态动词,意为“需要”,后接动词原形构成谓语,意为“需要做某事”;need还可以作实义动词,意为“需要”,后接名词、代词或动词不定式作宾语,意为“需要……”。根据横线后是名词help直接作宾语,可知此处用need的实义动词词性,其否定形式要借助助动词,主语Tom为三单,助动词用does,故选C。
【点睛】need作为情态动词时,其否定形式为needn’t do;need作为实义动词时,其否定形式为don’t/doesn’t need sth./to do sth.。类似用法的还有dare,既可作情态动词,又可作实义动词。
4. WALL-E is a brilliant cartoon because of _________ funny robot star.
A. it’s B. its C. it D. itself
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:《机器人总动员》是一部精彩的动画片,因为它有着一个滑稽又可笑的机器人主角。
考查代词辨析。it’s它是;its它的,形容词性物主代;it它,主格或宾格;itself它自己,反身代词。根据“because of...funny robot star.”可知,此处应用形容词性物主代修饰名词。故选B。
5. More than _________ athletes from around the world took part in the 2nd Summer Youth Olympic Games in Nanjing.
A. thousands of B. thousand of C. three thousands D. three thousand
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:来自世界各地的超过三千名运动员参加了在南京举办的第二届夏季青年奥林匹克运动会。
考查大数的表达。thousand“千”,表示具体数字时,不加-s,也不与of连用;表示概数时,需-s且与of连用。根据“More than”可知,此处是表示具体数字,因此three thousand“三千”符合。故选D。
6. To be honest, the professor doesn’t explain the problem _________ his assistant.
A. as clearly as B. so clear as C. as clear as D. more clearly as
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:说实话,这位教授对这个问题的解释不如他的助手清楚。
考查词性和词义辨析。clearly副词,清楚地;clear形容词,清楚的。原级比较的否定结构,即“not so/as+adj./adv.的原形+as”,表示“不如……”,分析句子结构可知,此处必须用副词的原级比较,空格处需用副词修饰动词explain。故选A。
7. The teacher as well as the students _________ interest in the outdoor sports.
A. is B. are C. show D. shows
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:老师以及学生们对户外运动表现出兴趣。
考查主谓一致及动词短语。show interest in“对……表现出兴趣”,固定短语,排除A、B选项;根据“The teacher as well as the students”可知,as well as连接的两个主语,谓语动词的数遵循“就远原则”,最远的主语是The teacher,动词用第三人称单数。故选D。

A. has delivered B. had delivered C. delivered D. was delivering
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:到那天下午6点,这位年轻的快递员已经在这个城市投递了近200个包裹。
考查过去完成时。has delivered现在完成时;had delivered过去完成时;delivered一般过去时;was delivering过去进行时。由 “By 6 p.m. that day,”可知,那一天已经是过去了,而送快递这件事发生在过去的过去,所以要用过去完成时“had+done”,故选B。
9. Adele says she won’t go on a diet _________ it’s for health reasons.
A. since B. until C. unless D. because
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:阿黛尔说,除非是出于健康原因,否则她不会节食。
考查连词辨析。since自从,引导时间状语从句;until直到;unless除非,引导条件状语从句,相当于“if…not”;because因为,引导原因状语从句。分析句子关系可知,“it’s for health reasons”是“Adele says she won’t go on a diet”的否定条件,因此用“unless”。故选C。
10. Stop ________ about the traffic. Just think about what we can do to improve it.
A. complain B. to complain C. complaining D. complained
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:不要再抱怨交通了。还是想象我们如何改善交通吧。
考查非谓语动词。stop to do sth.停下来去做某事,stop doing sth.停止做某事。结合文中“Just think about what we can do to improve it.”可知说话人提倡改善交通情况,而不是一味地抱怨,应停止抱怨。故选C。
11. Susan and Lily _________ some vegetables on the farm this time yesterday.
A. have picked B. had picked C. would pick D. were picking
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:昨天的这个时候,Susan和Lily正在农场里采摘蔬菜。

12. _________ great fun it is to have a five-day holiday!
A. What B. What a C. What an D. How
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:拥有一个五天的假期是多么有趣啊!

13. —_________ will you finish the report on food safety?
—In two days.
A. How often B. How soon C. How far D. How long
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你多久能完成这份关于食品安全的报告?——两天后。
考查特殊疑问句。How often多久一次;How soon多久以后;How far多远;How long多久。根据“In two days.”可知,问句是对“in+一段时间”提问,用how soon。故选B。
14. They _________ on a journey round the world after the matter was settled.
A. looked out B. turned out C. set out D. set up
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:事情解决后,他们开始了环球旅行。
考查动词短语。looked out向外看;turned out结果是;set out开始……,出发;set up建立。根据“They...on a journey round the world after the matter was settled.”可知,事情解决后他们开始环球旅行。set out意为“开始,出发”,符合语境。故选C。

D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(12分)
Answer the questions (根据以下内容回答问题)
When was the last time you left home without your mobile phone? Can you imagine yourself living a month, or even a year without checking your mobile phone from time to time?
As a busy modern person with lots of social connections, plans and responsibilities, I just cannot afford to not be in touch with the rest of the world. Staying connected to other people is a big part of my life. However, sometimes it can be bothersome (恼人的).
One day I discovered I was terribly tired out. I tried turning notifications (通知) off. But the fear of missing out something important made me check the phone more often than before. So, I simply stopped using my phone.
Well, to tell the truth, it was not simple at all. For the first couple of days. I had a big fear that all of my friends would soon forget about me. When I had a free moment, I had no idea what to get myself distracted (分心的) with, and the worries mixed with boredom kept bothering me.
However, after three weeks without a mobile phone. I started noticing changes— changes which I liked, and which drove me to not just continue the experiment, but in fact to reorganize some of my habits.
First of all, I noticed that I became much more focused. Before, while doing something, I would often find myself wondering what was going on online. After a month of staying away from my mobile phone, I found that the desire was already not that strong and that my ability to focus improved.
I discovered that the world is a beautiful place. Before, I would look at it through my camera mostly: take a photo, post it, and get some likes. Now, I saw beautiful people walking around and I sensed the seasons change. I could understand the actual beauty of the world, and I did not need anyone else to prove the value of this beauty through likes or shares.
Now, as 100 days have passed, I can say that the experiment was worth it. I am planning to stay away from my phone for as long as possible.

Work Together, Enjoy Teamwork
Last term, our class took part in a group poster-making activity about environmental protection. At first, we had different ideas about the layout and content. But we quickly sat down, listened to each other’s opinions, and divided the tasks. Some of us searched for information, some designed the layout, and I was responsible for drawing pictures.
During the process, we encountered some difficulties, like not having enough materials. However, we worked together to solve the problems. We borrowed materials from other classes and came up with creative solutions.
Finally, our poster won the first prize. Through this experience, I deeply felt the power of teamwork. Everyone’s strength is limited, but when we work together, we can achieve much more. We can learn from each other, share the workload, and overcome difficulties more easily. Teamwork makes the journey more enjoyable and the results more rewarding.
