Let’s see the amazing story of a crane! There was once a poor sailmaker named Chris. He worked very hard every day, but he didn’t make much money. He had a roof over his head and food to eat, so he lived comfortably, but he felt lonely because he had nobody to share his simple life with. One day, an injured crane lay near Chris’ front steps. “Poor crane,” he whispered. He carefully carried the crane and brought it inside. He cared for it all winter long. One day, it was strong enough to fly away. Chris watched and thought, “If only I could catch that crane’s swiftness (迅速) in one of my sails.” The following spring, a beautiful woman knocked at Chris’ door. “My name is Lydia,” she said softly. “I’ve been walking for several days, and I need food and rest.” Chris took her in. A month later, they got married. “I can make wonderful sails for you,” Lydia said. “They will be beautiful, and you will make a lot of money from them. However, you must promise never to watch me make the sails.” Chris said, “I promise.” Lydia went to her weaving(编织) room. A month went by before the first sail was finished. When Chris finally brought it to the market, he was surprised that people wanted to pay so much money for it. He asked Lydia to weave more. She wove many sails, and Chris’ wealth grew. He spent his new money on expensive clothing, jewellery, and paintings. As he made more money and got more things, he slowly became more greedy (贪婪的). One day, Lydia said she needed to rest. She was tired out. But Chris insisted that she keep working, so she did. Then Chris wanted her to work faster. He became impatient with Lydia. One day, he was so angry that he forgot about the promise he’d made. He threw open the door to Lydia’s weaving room and was surprised to see a beautiful crane weaving its feathers into a sail. Chris shouted, “You’re the crane that I saved!” “Yes,” the crane said. “But you’ve broken your promise, so I must leave.” Once again, Chris was a poor, lonely sailmaker. Whenever he saw a crane in the sky, he thought about his broken promise. 29. Which of the following best describes Chris? ①A kind sailmaker who saved a crane. ②A poor sailmaker who became rich finally. ③A hard-working husband who helped his wife. ④A greedy husband who treated his wife poorly. A. ①③ B. ①④ C. ②③ D. ②④ 30. Why did Lydia have to leave Chris? A. Because her husband broke his promise. B. Because her husband doubted her ability. C. Because she was too tired to continue her work. D. Because she was too poor to support the family. 31. How did Chris probably feel in the end? A. He was happy to live on his own. B. He was satisfied with his business. C. He felt sad about his lost paintings. D. He felt regretful about what he had done. 32. What’s the theme of this passage? A. Greed blinds the eyes. B. Practice makes perfect. C. It never rains but it pours. D. Actions speak louder than words. C You can put a postage stamp on it you can write an address on it, and you can send it through the U. S. mail. No, it’s not an envelope or a package. It’s the amazing coconut! The coconut is different from most other fruits because every part of it is useful. People drink the milk and eat the meat, they use coconut oil as a lotion (护肤液), and they use the husks for containers (容器). People in some island nations have even used the coconut in place of money. It is possible that humans have been using coconuts in many of these different ways for thousands of years. Even today, people are still finding new uses for the coconut. One of the more exciting uses of the coconut is as a source of energy in place of petroleum (石油). Scientists around the world are working on using coconuts for energy because coconuts are cheap, clean, and renewable. Already, coconut-rich countries such as Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, and Vanuatu are using coconut oil for this purpose. Engineers from these countries have made an effective biofuel out of coconut oil and alcohol. The fuel can power cars, trucks, ships, and even electric-power plants. In addition, the South Pacific islands of Tokelau are using coconut oil along with solar energy as their primary energy source. The two together can produce 100 percent of the electricity the islands need. Students at Baylor University in Texas received a grant to study the coconut husk. The result shows that coconut husks can take in water very well. Mixing coconut husks with dry soil helps the soil to hold onto more of the water. The students are also finding that the fibers can replace plastic in some cases. For example, the students are looking into using coconut husk fibers instead of plastic in parts of car interiors. If this is possible, it will help to make vehicles more environmentally friendly. The husk of the coconut is a perfect package. It protects the coconut from damage. When the coconut falls on the ground or into water, the husk protects it. Its strong husk is the reason the U. S. Postal Service allows people to send the coconut without any extra packaging anywhere in the country. All that is necessary is to stick some stamps right onto the coconut. Each year, tourists on the Hawaiian island of Molokai post about 3, 000 of these “coconut postcards”. Coconuts grow naturally in over 80 countries of the world. They require only sun and regular rainfall. No extra care is needed. Every year, these 80 countries produce more than 61 million tons of coconuts. It is not surprising, then, that people want to find multiple uses for the coconut. Because they’re an easy-to-grow resource, coconuts really are more than just great souvenirs to bring home after a trip to the tropics. 33. In Paragraph 2, what does the underlined part “this purpose” mean? A. Coconuts are not only cheap and clean, but also renewable. B. An effective biofuel is made out of coconut oil and alcohol. C. People in coconut-rich countries use coconut a lot in daily lives. D. Coconuts’ husks produce a source of energy in place of petroleum. 34. What feature of the husk makes it so useful for planting? A. The husk can take in water well. B. The husk can be used instead of plastic. C. The husk can be quickly mixed with soil. D. The husk can help protect the environment. 35. In the last paragraph, the writer proves that coconuts are an easy-to-grow resource by ________. A. listing the facts B. showing the results C. expressing the opinions D. comparing the numbers 36. Which is the most suitable title for this passage? A. A Perfect Package B. A Fruit with Rich Uses C. A Source of Energy D. An Easy-to-grow Resource D During Chinese New Year, a 40-metre-long balloon loong (the Chinese pronunciation of dragon) was shown in Hong Kong. On January 24, the artwork was confirmed to have broken the Guinness World Record for being the world’s largest balloon loong. The loong is the symbol of power, energy and liveliness in Chinese culture. The record-breaking loong is made up of 38,000 beautiful balloons. It shows a golden light and has a sense of power. “According to Chinese legends (神话) the loong controls rain. Only good weather can produce good crops, so the Chinese have admired and respected the loong since ancient times,” the balloon artist Wilson Pang said. He added that many sayings about the loong had good meanings, which were different from those about Western Dragons. Pang said that the artwork took him much time and the most difficult part was the eyes. He made more than 10 drafts for one eye alone before he was satisfied. The Guinness certification officer was greatly impressed, saying it was one of the most attractive balloon artworks ever. The model of the loong caught many people’s attention. “Beautiful”, “amazing”, “fantastic” and “thanks for bringing us peace” were among many people’s messages Pang received on social media. To thank people for their support, Pang printed 5,000 postcards based on the loong and had a meeting with them at a mall. “To send a warm, loving message to the people of Hong Kong is what I always want to do,” Pang said. “I hope to share what I have learned with young people. I have won many medals myself and I hope to support the next winners in the future.” Growing up in Hong Kong, a place both old and modern, Pang often thinks about how to present the beauty of Eastern culture with Western balloon art. The balloon artist hopes that one day he can introduce balloon works that show Chinese culture to the world. “This is what I am doing now,” he said. 37. What can we learn from Paragraph 1 to Paragraph 3? A. The loong is powerful and lazy in Chinese culture. B. People respect the loong because it produces crops. C. Sayings about Western Dragons always have good meanings. D. Ancient people believed good weather depended on the loong. 38. In Wilson Pang’s eyes, the balloon artwork ________. A. has perfect eyes in the beginning B. has nothing to do with young people C. is a way to send people a warm message D. is easier to design than any other artwork 39. What will the writer probably talk about after the last paragraph? A. The beauty of the Western balloon art and works. B. Chinese culture that can be found in the balloon loong. C. Pang’s growing-up stories before becoming a balloon artist. D. Hong Kong, a great place with ancient and modern cultures. 40. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Artist Breaks Record for Largest Loong B. Chinese Loong Stands for Special Meanings C. Hong Kong Spreads Traditional Chinese Culture D. Wilson Pang Becomes Famous as Balloon Artist 四 、填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) A) 请根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使句子意思完整正确，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为41—45的相应横线上。 41. —The chat show is really ________ (乏味的).

They were thought to be a kind of pig in the past, but now we know that they are the largest rodents (啮齿动物) on the earth. Guess what? They are new stars on social media now! Seeing them in the wild, you might be surprised at first because they look like giant guinea pigs, which are in fact one of their closest relatives. Capybaras’ bodies are covered in reddish-brown fur. When swimming around, thanks to their small eyes, noses and hairless cars which are high on their heads, they’re able to see the above-water things around them. That’s why they can protect themselves from danger easily. A capybara weighs around 50 kilograms and it can grow to 1.5 meters in length. Female capybaras are usually a little heavier than the males. Most of them live in South America and like to stay in comfortable places with lots of water. Pantanal, the world’s largest freshwater wetland, is a perfect place for them to live. Capybaras usually eat grass. But they sometimes eat their own poop (排泄物) because it is helpful for them to get all the things they need. Capybaras are good swimmers and love to play with water. They usually live in groups of 10 to 20 (and up to 100 during the dry season). They also like chatting with each other very much. They express themselves by making different kinds of sounds, including purring, barking, whistling, cackling and grunting. Each sound has an important meaning, from warning the group of danger to sending signals of leaving. It’s like a capybara language. With good personalities, capybaras have become increasingly popular on social media. They get along with almost all the other animals and share their homes with birds and turtles, just like a big animal family living together peacefully. They are calm and don’t really care about what goes on around them. Other animals can do whatever they feel like if they don’t hurt the capybaras. But if capybaras are aware of a risk, they may attack others to protect themselves. Social media’s new stars—Capybaras Introduction People used to ____56____ capybaras were a kind of pig, but now we know they are the largest rodents on the earth. ____57____ Capybaras look ____58____ to giant guinea pigs which are their closest relatives.

Let’s see the amazing story of a crane! There was once a poor sailmaker named Chris. He worked very hard every day, but he didn’t make much money. He had a roof over his head and food to eat, so he lived comfortably, but he felt lonely because he had nobody to share his simple life with. One day, an injured crane lay near Chris’ front steps. “Poor crane,” he whispered. He carefully carried the crane and brought it inside. He cared for it all winter long. One day, it was strong enough to fly away. Chris watched and thought, “If only I could catch that crane’s swiftness (迅速) in one of my sails.” The following spring, a beautiful woman knocked at Chris’ door. “My name is Lydia,” she said softly. “I’ve been walking for several days, and I need food and rest.” Chris took her in. A month later, they got married. “I can make wonderful sails for you,” Lydia said. “They will be beautiful, and you will make a lot of money from them. However, you must promise never to watch me make the sails.” Chris said, “I promise.” Lydia went to her weaving(编织) room. A month went by before the first sail was finished. When Chris finally brought it to the market, he was surprised that people wanted to pay so much money for it. He asked Lydia to weave more. She wove many sails, and Chris’ wealth grew. He spent his new money on expensive clothing, jewellery, and paintings. As he made more money and got more things, he slowly became more greedy (贪婪的). One day, Lydia said she needed to rest. She was tired out. But Chris insisted that she keep working, so she did. Then Chris wanted her to work faster. He became impatient with Lydia. One day, he was so angry that he forgot about the promise he’d made. He threw open the door to Lydia’s weaving room and was surprised to see a beautiful crane weaving its feathers into a sail. Chris shouted, “You’re the crane that I saved!” “Yes,” the crane said. “But you’ve broken your promise, so I must leave.” Once again, Chris was a poor, lonely sailmaker. Whenever he saw a crane in the sky, he thought about his broken promise. 29. Which of the following best describes Chris? ①A kind sailmaker who saved a crane. ②A poor sailmaker who became rich finally. ③A hard-working husband who helped his wife. ④A greedy husband who treated his wife poorly. A. ①③ B. ①④ C. ②③ D. ②④ 30. Why did Lydia have to leave Chris? A. Because her husband broke his promise. B. Because her husband doubted her ability. C. Because she was too tired to continue her work. D. Because she was too poor to support the family. 31. How did Chris probably feel in the end? A. He was happy to live on his own. B. He was satisfied with his business. C. He felt sad about his lost paintings. D. He felt regretful about what he had done. 32. What’s the theme of this passage? A. Greed blinds the eyes. B. Practice makes perfect. C. It never rains but it pours. D. Actions speak louder than words. 【答案】29. B 30. A 31. D 32. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了克里斯和一只鹤的故事。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“He carefully carried the crane and brought it inside. He cared for it all winter long. One day, it was strong enough to fly away.”和第六段“One day, Lydia said she needed to rest. She was tired out. But Chris insisted that she keep working, so she did. Then Chris wanted her to work faster.”可知克里斯是一个救了鹤的善良的水手，一个对妻子不好的贪婪的丈夫。故选B。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“But you’ve broken your promise, so I must leave.”可知莉迪亚要离开克里斯，因为她丈夫违背诺言了。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Once again, Chris was a poor, lonely sailmaker. Whenever he saw a crane in the sky, he thought about his broken promise.”可推断出克里斯最后可能对自己所做的事感到后悔。故选D。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“As he made more money and got more things, he slowly became more greedy (贪婪的).”、第六段“Then Chris wanted her to work faster. He became impatient with Lydia. One day, he was so angry that he forgot about the promise he’d made.”和最后一段“Once again, Chris was a poor, lonely sailmaker.”可知，克里斯对金钱和物质越发贪婪，以至于他违背对妻子的承诺，最后妻子离他而去，他也再次变得贫困，由此可知这篇文章的主题是：贪婪蒙蔽了双眼。故选A。 C You can put a postage stamp on it you can write an address on it, and you can send it through the U. S. mail. No, it’s not an envelope or a package. It’s the amazing coconut! The coconut is different from most other fruits because every part of it is useful. People drink the milk and eat the meat, they use coconut oil as a lotion (护肤液), and they use the husks for containers (容器). People in some island nations have even used the coconut in place of money. It is possible that humans have been using coconuts in many of these different ways for thousands of years. Even today, people are still finding new uses for the coconut. One of the more exciting uses of the coconut is as a source of energy in place of petroleum (石油). Scientists around the world are working on using coconuts for energy because coconuts are cheap, clean, and renewable. Already, coconut-rich countries such as Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, and Vanuatu are using coconut oil for this purpose. Engineers from these countries have made an effective biofuel out of coconut oil and alcohol. The fuel can power cars, trucks, ships, and even electric-power plants. In addition, the South Pacific islands of Tokelau are using coconut oil along with solar energy as their primary energy source. The two together can produce 100 percent of the electricity the islands need. Students at Baylor University in Texas received a grant to study the coconut husk. The result shows that coconut husks can take in water very well. Mixing coconut husks with dry soil helps the soil to hold onto more of the water. The students are also finding that the fibers can replace plastic in some cases. For example, the students are looking into using coconut husk fibers instead of plastic in parts of car interiors. If this is possible, it will help to make vehicles more environmentally friendly. The husk of the coconut is a perfect package. It protects the coconut from damage. When the coconut falls on the ground or into water, the husk protects it. Its strong husk is the reason the U. S. Postal Service allows people to send the coconut without any extra packaging anywhere in the country. All that is necessary is to stick some stamps right onto the coconut. Each year, tourists on the Hawaiian island of Molokai post about 3, 000 of these “coconut postcards”. Coconuts grow naturally in over 80 countries of the world. They require only sun and regular rainfall. No extra care is needed. Every year, these 80 countries produce more than 61 million tons of coconuts. It is not surprising, then, that people want to find multiple uses for the coconut. Because they’re an easy-to-grow resource, coconuts really are more than just great souvenirs to bring home after a trip to the tropics. 33. In Paragraph 2, what does the underlined part “this purpose” mean? A. Coconuts are not only cheap and clean, but also renewable. B. An effective biofuel is made out of coconut oil and alcohol. C. People in coconut-rich countries use coconut a lot in daily lives. D. Coconuts’ husks produce a source of energy in place of petroleum. 34. What feature of the husk makes it so useful for planting? A. The husk can take in water well. B. The husk can be used instead of plastic. C. The husk can be quickly mixed with soil. D. The husk can help protect the environment. 35. In the last paragraph, the writer proves that coconuts are an easy-to-grow resource by ________. A. listing the facts B. showing the results C. expressing the opinions D. comparing the numbers 36. Which is the most suitable title for this passage? A. A Perfect Package B. A Fruit with Rich Uses C. A Source of Energy D. An Easy-to-grow Resource 【答案】33. A 34. A 35. A 36. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了椰子用途。人们喝椰子奶，吃椰子肉，他们用椰子油作为护肤液，他们用椰子壳作为容器，一些岛屿国家的人们甚至用椰子代替货币，椰子还可以作为能源。 【33题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“Scientists around the world are working on using coconuts for energy because coconuts are cheap, clean, and renewable.”可知，巴布亚新几内亚、菲律宾和瓦努阿图等盛产椰子的国家已经开始使用椰子油，是因为椰子不仅便宜、干净，而且是可再生的。故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The result shows that coconut husks can take in water very well. Mixing coconut husks with dry soil helps the soil to hold onto more of the water.”可知，椰子壳具有良好的吸水性能，因此它可以被用于种植，故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Coconuts grow naturally in over 80 countries of the world. They require only sun and regular rainfall. No extra care is needed. Every year, these 80 countries produce more than 61 million tons of coconuts.”可知，最后一段介绍椰子在世界上80多个国家自然生长，它们只需要阳光和定期降雨，不需要额外的护理，每年，这80个国家生产的椰子超过6100万吨。这是通过列出事实来证明椰子是一种容易种植的资源，故选A。 【36题详解】 标题归纳题。根据“The coconut is different from most other fruits because every part of it is useful. People drink the milk and eat the meat, they use coconut oil as a lotion (护肤液), and they use the husks for containers (容器). People in some island nations have even used the coconut in place of money.”可知，本文介绍了椰子有很多用途，故选B。 D During Chinese New Year, a 40-metre-long balloon loong (the Chinese pronunciation of dragon) was shown in Hong Kong. On January 24, the artwork was confirmed to have broken the Guinness World Record for being the world’s largest balloon loong. The loong is the symbol of power, energy and liveliness in Chinese culture. The record-breaking loong is made up of 38,000 beautiful balloons. It shows a golden light and has a sense of power. “According to Chinese legends (神话) the loong controls rain. Only good weather can produce good crops, so the Chinese have admired and respected the loong since ancient times,” the balloon artist Wilson Pang said. He added that many sayings about the loong had good meanings, which were different from those about Western Dragons. Pang said that the artwork took him much time and the most difficult part was the eyes. He made more than 10 drafts for one eye alone before he was satisfied. The Guinness certification officer was greatly impressed, saying it was one of the most attractive balloon artworks ever. The model of the loong caught many people’s attention. “Beautiful”, “amazing”, “fantastic” and “thanks for bringing us peace” were among many people’s messages Pang received on social media. To thank people for their support, Pang printed 5,000 postcards based on the loong and had a meeting with them at a mall. “To send a warm, loving message to the people of Hong Kong is what I always want to do,” Pang said. “I hope to share what I have learned with young people. I have won many medals myself and I hope to support the next winners in the future.” Growing up in Hong Kong, a place both old and modern, Pang often thinks about how to present the beauty of Eastern culture with Western balloon art. The balloon artist hopes that one day he can introduce balloon works that show Chinese culture to the world. “This is what I am doing now,” he said. 37. What can we learn from Paragraph 1 to Paragraph 3? A. The loong is powerful and lazy in Chinese culture. B. People respect the loong because it produces crops. C. Sayings about Western Dragons always have good meanings. D. Ancient people believed good weather depended on the loong. 38. In Wilson Pang’s eyes, the balloon artwork ________. A. has perfect eyes in the beginning B. has nothing to do with young people C. is a way to send people a warm message D. is easier to design than any other artwork 39. What will the writer probably talk about after the last paragraph? A. The beauty of the Western balloon art and works. B. Chinese culture that can be found in the balloon loong. C. Pang’s growing-up stories before becoming a balloon artist. D. Hong Kong, a great place with ancient and modern cultures. 40. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Artist Breaks Record for Largest Loong B. Chinese Loong Stands for Special Meanings C. Hong Kong Spreads Traditional Chinese Culture D. Wilson Pang Becomes Famous as Balloon Artist 【答案】37. D 38. C 39. B 40. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了香港展出40米长巨型气球龙，破吉尼斯世界纪录，创作者Wilson Pang希望借此推广中国文化。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据“According to Chinese legends (神话), the loong controls rain. Only good weather can produce good crops, so the Chinese have admired and respected the loong since ancient times”可知，根据中国神话，龙可以控制雨水。只有好天气才能长出好庄稼，所以中国人自古以来就对龙钦佩和尊重。所以D选项“古人认为好天气取决于龙。”正确，故选D。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据“To send a warm, loving message to the people of Hong Kong is what I always want to do”可知，向香港人传递温暖、充满爱心的信息，是他一直想做的事，所以C选项“是向人们传递温暖信息的一种方式”符合，故选C。 【39题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The balloon artist hopes that one day he can introduce balloon works that show Chinese culture to the world.”可知，这位气球艺术家希望有一天他能向世界介绍展示中国文化的气球作品，可知接下来与此有关，B选项“在气球龙里可以找到的中国文化。”符合，故选B。 【40题详解】 最佳标题题。本文介绍了香港展出40米长巨型气球龙，破吉尼斯世界纪录，创作者Wilson Pang希望借此推广中国文化。所以A选项“艺术家打破最长龙纪录”符合，故选A。 四 、填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) A) 请根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使句子意思完整正确，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为41—45的相应横线上。 41. —The chat show is really ________ (乏味的).

They were thought to be a kind of pig in the past, but now we know that they are the largest rodents (啮齿动物) on the earth. Guess what? They are new stars on social media now! Seeing them in the wild, you might be surprised at first because they look like giant guinea pigs, which are in fact one of their closest relatives. Capybaras’ bodies are covered in reddish-brown fur. When swimming around, thanks to their small eyes, noses and hairless cars which are high on their heads, they’re able to see the above-water things around them. That’s why they can protect themselves from danger easily. A capybara weighs around 50 kilograms and it can grow to 1.5 meters in length. Female capybaras are usually a little heavier than the males. Most of them live in South America and like to stay in comfortable places with lots of water. Pantanal, the world’s largest freshwater wetland, is a perfect place for them to live. Capybaras usually eat grass. But they sometimes eat their own poop (排泄物) because it is helpful for them to get all the things they need. Capybaras are good swimmers and love to play with water. They usually live in groups of 10 to 20 (and up to 100 during the dry season). They also like chatting with each other very much. They express themselves by making different kinds of sounds, including purring, barking, whistling, cackling and grunting. Each sound has an important meaning, from warning the group of danger to sending signals of leaving. It’s like a capybara language. With good personalities, capybaras have become increasingly popular on social media. They get along with almost all the other animals and share their homes with birds and turtles, just like a big animal family living together peacefully. They are calm and don’t really care about what goes on around them. Other animals can do whatever they feel like if they don’t hurt the capybaras. But if capybaras are aware of a risk, they may attack others to protect themselves. Social media’s new stars—Capybaras Introduction People used to ____56____ capybaras were a kind of pig, but now we know they are the largest rodents on the earth. ____57____ Capybaras look ____58____ to giant guinea pigs which are their closest relatives.
