1. —Have you ________ Heilongjiang Provincial Museum?
—Yes, I have. For those wishing to learn about the long history of Heilongjiang, the Provincial Museum is a great starting point.
A. been to B. gone to C. been in
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你去过黑龙江省博物馆吗?——是的,我去过。对于那些希望了解黑龙江长久历史的人来说,省博物馆是一个很好的起点。
考查动词短语辨析。have been to去过某地;have gone to去了某地,现在还未回来;have been in在某地,强调的是在某地的状态。根据“Yes, I have.”可知,此处是询问对方是否去过黑龙江省博物馆,故选A。
2. As students, we must treat (对待) each exam seriously. ________ we are, ________ mistakes we’ll make.
A. The more careful; the less B. The more carefully; the fewer C. The more careful; the fewer
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:作为学生,我们必须认真对待每次考试。我们越认真,犯的错误就越少。
考查比较级结构“the + 比较级,the + 比较级”表示“越……,越……”。第一个空需要形容词“careful”修饰主语“we”,第二个空需要形容词“few”修饰可数名词“mistakes”。A项中“the less”修饰不可数名词,不符合题意;B项中“carefully”是副词,不能修饰主语“we”。故选C。
3. I ________ when you called me last night.
A. am doing my homework B. did my homework C. was doing my homework
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:昨晚你打电话给我时,我正在做作业。
考查过去进行时。根据“last night”可知是过去的时间,“when you called me”表示在过去某个具体时间点,强调在这个时间点“我”正在进行的动作,所以用过去进行时“was doing my homework”。故选C。
4. My parents took away my mobile phone and iPad ________ I can focus on my study.
A. so that B. in order C. in order to
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:我的父母拿走了我的手机和iPad,以便我能专注于学习。
考查连词辨析。so that以便,表示目的;in order按照次序;in order to目的是,后需接动词原形,不能直接接从句。根据“I can focus on my study”可知,是以便我能专注学习,且为从句。故选A。
5. If you want to make friends with others, you must ________ them.
A. come up with B. get on well with C. argue with
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:如果你想和别人交朋友,你必须和他们友好相处。
考查动词短语辨析。come up with想出;提出;get on well with与……相处得好;argue with与……争论。根据“If you want to make friends with others”可知,此处表示“想要交朋友就需与他人友好相处”, get on well with符合语境。故选B。
6. The book written by Liu Cixin is so amazing that I can’t ________.
A. put it off B. put it out C. put it down
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:刘慈欣写的这本书太精彩了,让我爱不释手。
考查动词短语辨析。put it off推迟它;put it out熄灭它;put it down放下它。根据“The book written by Liu Cixin is so amazing that I can’t ...”可知,刘慈欣写的书太精彩了,导致爱不释手,放不下它。故选C。
7. —Many animals are in great danger, so they need our ________.

A. preparation B. protection C. population
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——许多动物都处于极大的危险之中,所以它们需要我们的保护。——我同意你的看法。我们的政府已经为它们做了很多。
考查名词词义辨析。preparation准备;protection保护;population人口。根据“Many animals are in great danger”可知,动物处于危险中,需要的是“保护”,此处填名词,protection符合语境。故选B。
8. —I heard your son ________ a girl who can’t see or hear.
—Yes. They love each other deeply, so my son ________ her.
A. married; got married to B. married with; got married C. married; got married with
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我听说你儿子和一个既看不见也听不见的女孩结婚了。——是的。他们彼此深爱着,所以我儿子和她结婚了。
考查动词。“marry”作为及物动词,意为“娶;嫁;与……结婚”,直接接宾语,所以第一空填married;get married to sb.表示 “与某人结婚”,是固定搭配,所以第二空填got married to。故选A。
9. —Excuse me, Sir. Could you please tell me ________?
—Sure. You should go along this street and turn right at the first crossing.
A. how can I get to the shopping mall
B. which is the way to the science museum
C. where is the hospital
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——对不起,先生。请问你能告诉我哪条路到科技博物馆吗?——当然。你应该沿着这条街走,在第一个十字路口右转。
考查宾语从句的语序。how can I get to the shopping mall我怎么到购物中心;which is the way to the science museum哪条路到科技博物馆;where is the hospital医院在哪。根据“Could you please tell me...”可知,此处为宾语从句,应为陈述语序,选项A和C不是陈述语序,选项B为陈述语序,故选B。
10. Your coming makes ________ possible for me to work out such a difficult problem.
A. this B. it C. that
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:你的到来让我得以解决这个难题。
考查it作形式宾语。this这个;it它;that那个。根据“makes...possible for me to work out”可知为句型“make it adj to do”,意为“使做某事变得怎样”,it作形式宾语,to do为真正的宾语。故选B。

It was nearly dark. The sun was dropping down the mountains far away. Little Tom came back home, with tears in his eyes.
“What’s the matter, Tom? How’s your trip?” his mother asked with a big smile. “I failed. The mountain is so high and full of big or small stones on the way. I still went ahead. But I was tired and it was so late that I had to come back.” Tom cried. “It doesn’t matter. You are only 14 years old after all. You will have another chance,” his mother said. “But standing at the top of the mountain is my dream!” Tom said. His father came over and asked, “Did you see the green trees on your way to the mountain?” “Sure, and there are a lot of beautiful flowers by the side of the road,” Tom replied. “Did you hear the birds singing?” his father asked. “There were many kinds of birds singing in the trees and the sound was very sweet,” Tom said. “Did you feel the beauty of nature?” his father asked. “Yes, the blue sky, the white clouds, the green trees and the colorful flowers made a nice picture,” Tom answered. “That’s enough!” his father smiled and said. “Please remember, son. For often, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Although you didn’t reach the top of the mountain, you got a lot on the way.”

The development of science and technology makes a difference to people’s life. The creation (创造) of special robots has helped farmers a lot.
The population on the earth grows larger each year. As a result, more and more food needs to be grown in order to feed everyone. Because climate (气候) changes all the time, it’s becoming even more difficult to grow more food. When farmers tried to grow more food in the past, some farming methods were used. However, those farming methods weren’t always healthy for the environment. In fact, they were harmful (有害的) to the environment sometimes.
Could this problem be solved? Some scientists spent several years talking to farmers. They wanted to see what problems farmers were having and how these problems could be solved. This led to the creation of special robots. These special robots move around on farms and collect information about crops (庄稼). They can take pictures of plants and track (追踪) each plant’s growth.
By collecting information about plants, the robots can help farmers predict the growth of the plants. That means farmers can know how their plants will grow. By studying each plant, the robots can also help farmers look after plants better. For example, if the robots find out which plants get sick, farmers can quickly throw them away before they are about to influence other plants beside them. With the help of these robots, farmers can take better care of the plants in need.

One problem a lot of people have with books is that people buy books and then never read them. To work out this problem a publisher (出版社) got a clever idea. It printed a book in disappearing ink (墨水): the text of the book disappears (消失) two months after the special package (盒) of the book is opened. It encourages buyers to read it before it goes away. People call this “the book that can’t wait”.
The book was a great success. The publisher sold out all the first edition (版本) at a bookstore in one day, and received “thousands of request (请求)” for more copies of the book. It also got a lot of media coverage (媒体报道). As a result, the publisher is planning to publish other works in disappearing ink now.
In my opinion, the idea is pretty clever. But here, I have some advice:
First, the disappeared book should start disappearing after the reader opens the book for the first time. If the books become very popular in the future, readers will need to read them one at a time. They don’t want their books to disappear before they read the first page.
Second, the disappeared book should find a good use. Maybe we can use them as notebooks. It would be a more environmentally friendly way to do this.

【答案】例文:
Dear Mary,
How is everything going? I’m writing to share ideas from an online article about protecting endangered animals. It really moved me recently.
Many animals are in danger of dying out, such as pandas and whales. There are several reasons for this. Firstly, they don’t have enough food and living space. Secondly, people cut down trees and pollute rivers, which destroys their habitats. Moreover, some animals are hunted for their fur, meat or other parts.
As a middle school student, I believe I can do something to help. For example, I can join volunteer groups to clean up the places where animals live. What’s more, I will tell people around me the importance of protecting animals and ask them not to buy things made from animals.
Let’s work together to make the world a better place for these lovely creatures.
Waiting for your reply.
Yours,
Li Rui

It was nearly dark. The sun was dropping down the mountains far away. Little Tom came back home, with tears in his eyes.
“What’s the matter, Tom? How’s your trip?” his mother asked with a big smile. “I failed. The mountain is so high and full of big or small stones on the way. I still went ahead. But I was tired and it was so late that I had to come back.” Tom cried. “It doesn’t matter. You are only 14 years old after all. You will have another chance,” his mother said. “But standing at the top of the mountain is my dream!” Tom said. His father came over and asked, “Did you see the green trees on your way to the mountain?” “Sure, and there are a lot of beautiful flowers by the side of the road,” Tom replied. “Did you hear the birds singing?” his father asked. “There were many kinds of birds singing in the trees and the sound was very sweet,” Tom said. “Did you feel the beauty of nature?” his father asked. “Yes, the blue sky, the white clouds, the green trees and the colorful flowers made a nice picture,” Tom answered. “That’s enough!” his father smiled and said. “Please remember, son. For often, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Although you didn’t reach the top of the mountain, you got a lot on the way.”
It is true that not every goal (目标) will be achieved, not every job will end up with a success, and not every dream will come true. The most beautiful scenery (风景) is on the way.

The development of science and technology makes a difference to people’s life The creation (创造) of special robots has helped farmers a lot.
The population on the earth grows larger each year. As a result, more and more food needs to be grown in order to feed everyone. Because climate (气候) changes all the time, it’s becoming even more difficult to grow more food. When farmers tried to grow more food in the past, some farming methods were used. However, those farming methods weren’t always healthy for the environment. In fact, they were harmful (有害的) to the environment sometimes.
Could this problem be solved? Some scientists spent several years talking to farmers. They wanted to see what problems farmers were having and how these problems could be solved. This led to the creation of special robots. These special robots move around on farms and collect information about crops (庄稼). They can take pictures of plants and track (追踪) each plant’s growth.
By collecting information about plants, the robots can help farmers predict the growth of the plants. That means farmers can know how their plants will grow. By studying each plant, the robots can also help farmers look after plants better. For example, if the robots find out which plants get sick, farmers can quickly throw them away before they are about to influence other plants beside them. With the help of these robots, farmers can take better care of the plants in need.

One problem a lot of people have with books is that people buy books and then never read them. To work out this problem, a publisher (出版社) got a clever idea. It printed a book in disappearing ink (墨水): the text of the book disappears (消失) two months after the special package (盒) of the book is opened. It encourages buyers to read it before it goes away. People call this “the book that can’t wait”.
The book was a great success. The publisher sold out all the first edition (版本) at a bookstore in one day, and received “thousands of request (请求)” for more copies of the book. It also got a lot of media coverage (媒体报道). As a result, the publisher is planning to publish other works in disappearing ink now.
In my opinion, the idea is pretty clever. But here, I have some advice:
First, the disappeared book should start disappearing after the reader opens the book for the first time. If the books become very popular in the future, readers will need to read them one at a time. They don’t want their books to disappear before they read the first page.
Second, the disappeared book should find a good use. Maybe we can use them as notebooks. It would be a more environmentally friendly way to do this.
