Raising rabbits is much like raising other animals. Here're some things to help you raise and care for your rabbits so that they can live a happy life. When you bring rabbits home, they will be scared, because rabbits are nervous by nature. Allow them a few weeks to get used to their surroundings. Always make sure your rabbits have a cage big enough to live in. They need to have enough room to move around, especially if they stay indoors and you will cage them while you are gone. This is the safest option for your rabbits as well. Make sure to keep their diet consistent. Pet rabbits don't like it when their food is changed often. Aside from food, water is the most important for a rabbit. Always make sure they have fresh cold water! Provide a treat for them every now and then like carrots. There are certain types of treats at pet stores that are good, and your rabbits may like them. Rabbit care also means providing your rabbits with toys. Cat toys work great, especially balls with bells in the center. Larger rabbits will even play with things such as pop cans and pop bottles. Raising rabbits requires a lot of efforts, but it will also bring you many years of joy and happiness. 17．What can you learn about rabbit care? A．They should be given enough space. B．Pet rabbits don't like to play with toys. C．Rabbits tend to be more relaxed indoors. 答案：A 18．How should you feed rabbits? A．Provide them with various foods every day.

C．An interesting story book. 答案：B 第二部分　阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Guizhou, China's Next Big Travel Destination One of China's fastest－growing provinces, Guizhou is now one of the most popular travel destinations in the country. Here are four top spots. China's most beautiful waterfall Huangguoshu in Guizhou's Anshun County is one of the largest and most beautiful waterfalls in the world. Tourists can get a close look by walking along the 134－meter－long water curtain cave behind the fall. This grand attraction is part of a group of 18 waterfalls inside Huangguoshu National Park. World's largest single－dish radio telescope Located in the natural basin of Guizhou, China's Five－hundred－meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST)—nicknamed the Eye of Heaven—is the world's largest single－dish radio telescope. Five kilometers from FAST, there's a 300－hectare Astronomy Science Tourism Park, which features 15 different astronomy－themed projects including a FAST visitor center, a dark sky park and an astronomical time village. Brewer of China's national liquor Moutai is widely considered the national liquor of China.

After that, I had a fear of bees. That's when my parents suggested that I learn about bees instead of being frightened. I read picture books and watched videos about bees, and I learned that bees help make the food we eat because of their pollination (授粉). Take pizza, for example. If we didn't have bees to pollinate tomato plants, we wouldn't have tomatoes for sauce. And we wouldn't have cheese without pollination, either. The bad news is that bees are struggling to survive. Many are dying. Some scientists think it might be because of chemicals that are used to kill other insects. What would happen if there were no more bees? I wanted to help. I thought, “What if I make lemonade, sell it, and raise money to help bees？” I talked to my grandmother Helen. She gave me her recipe (调制法) for lemonade. It came from a cookbook from 1940. I added honey to her old recipe. That way, I could sell the lemonade and donate some of the money to groups that are helping to save bees. I could also support local beekeepers by using their honey in my product. And I would be educating others on the importance of bees and helping to save them. My dad showed me how to work out what supplies I needed to buy. At first, I sold lemonade at a stand at a kids' business event. But I wanted to help bees all year round. We talked to a pizza place near where I live. They said they wanted to sell it. Now more than 30 stores sell it, too. This year we sold about 140，000 bottles. I love helping to save bees. It's the sweetest feeling ever. 篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者在了解蜜蜂之后，通过销售自制蜂蜜柠檬汁来帮助那些处于危难之中的蜜蜂。 24．After learning about bees, the author ________． A．discovered their importance to people B．developed an interest in insects C．knew how to deal with them D．became afraid of them 答案：A　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I learned that bees help make the food we eat because of their pollination (授粉) ... we wouldn't have cheese without pollination, either”可推知，作者通过了解蜜蜂认识到了蜜蜂的重要性。故选A。 25．What led the author to start her business?

A．From lemon to lemonade B．A kid and her bees C．A healthy heart D．A sweet idea 答案：D　标题判断题。根据作者为救蜜蜂而萌生出销售自制蜂蜜柠檬汁的想法及最后一段最后一句“It's the sweetest feeling ever.(这是最甜蜜的感觉。)”可知，D项适合作为标题。故选D。 C Scientists say only enlarging the world's nature reserve to help protect plants and animals may be useless. The main reason is that levels of human activity are rising in and around the nature reserves. In fact, recognizing spaces as protected areas is not reducing human activity there. The researchers found that a lack of money to pay for land conservation (保护) is affecting conservation efforts. And it is a lack of communication between people who live in protected natural areas and outsiders. About 17 percent of the world is within protected areas, including the national parks, nature reserves and wilderness areas. Protected areas are important for supporting environments with many different kinds of plants and animals. The researchers again found increasing human activity in most protected areas in every country. However, they said that human activity appeared to be more of a problem in nations with fewer roads and lower life standards on the Human Development Index (指数). The index uses information about life length, education and earnings to grade countries on human development. Across the northern Australia, protected areas often proved effective at slowing human activity when compared with unprotected areas. But in South America, Southeast Asia and African countries, pressure from human activity inside protected areas was higher. Experts say governments need to provide fund support to help protected areas. Simply recognizing a place as a protected area can't be the beginning and the end of a conservation effort. Working with local people to take efforts is also important. If they're not partners in the protected areas, then wildlife conservation is much more difficult. 篇章导读：本文是一篇议论文。作者认为不仅要扩大世界自然保护区，还应该有政府的资金支持以及当地人的共同参与，才能真正使保护区发挥作用。 28．What are protected areas mainly affected by according to the text? A．Human activity. B．Climate change. C．Population growth. D．Environmental pollution. 答案：A　细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“The main reason is that levels of human activity are rising in and around the nature reserves.(主要原因是自然保护区内和周围的人类活动水平正在上升。)”可知，保护区主要受到人类活动的影响。故选A。 29．What's the Human Development Index used to do? A．Record more roads in the world. B．Improve education in all countries. C．Grade countries on human development. D．Lead more people to make money. 答案：C　细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“The index uses information about life length, education and earnings to grade countries on human development.”可知，人类发展指数是用来对各国人类发展水平进行分级的。故选C。 30．What do experts advise governments to do for protected areas? A．Enlarge protected areas. B．Offer extra money and work with locals. C．Attract more people to travel there. D．Allow local people to farm there. 答案：B　细节理解题。根据第五段第一句“Experts say governments need to provide fund support to help protected areas.”和第三句“Working with local people to take efforts is also important.”可知，专家建议政府提供资金支持，与当地人民一起努力保护野生动物。故选B。 31．What can be the best title for the text? A．People May Cause Harm to Plants and Animals B．Local People Should Focus on the Natural Environment C．Nature Reserves in the World Should Be Increased D．Nature Reserves May Not Protect Wildlife Safely 答案：D　标题判断题。第一段第一句提出观点“Scientists say only enlarging the world's nature reserve to help protect plants and animals may be useless.(科学家们认为只通过扩大世界自然保护区以帮助保护动植物可能毫无用处。)”，接着文章给出了相关的论据：人类活动在自然保护区中增加，保护资金缺乏；还举了一些具体国家和地区的实例来论证上面的观点，所以这篇文章的开头就是文章的主旨。D项(自然保护区不能安全地保护野生动物)适合作本文标题。故选D。 D Two－thirds of the world's major rivers have now been disrupted (中断) with more than 50，000 dams in an attempt to store water and provide power. In the US, there are more than 85，000 dams, disrupting large and small rivers and in most cases transforming natural flow. The most famous of these, the Hoover Dam constructed in the 1930's, is mainly responsible for the fact that the Colorado River no longer reaches the ocean. Dams besides all their attractive benefits also have negative impacts. Creating a reservoir means a large area must be flooded. Communities may lose their land, houses and cultural relics. Downstream (在下游方向) of a dam, the flow may be reduced so that farmers cannot irrigate (灌溉) their field. Environmentally the new reservoir can be a paradise for wildlife especially birds. However, it can cause greenhouse gas emissions (排放) and poison the water for fish. Also the dramatic rise and fall of water levels during dam releases is too extreme for plains and animals to cope with, resulting in dead zones around the shores of reservoirs. Fish that lay their eggs in the shallows, for example, may find a few hours later that those sites are high and dry. Dams don't just block water flow. The flow may be reduced so that farmers will have great trouble getting water for their fields. They also prevent fish migrations and are a barrier to sediment (沉淀物) flows. Instead of rushing downriver, sediments get backed up against the dam wall, which cause the reservoir level to increase over time. However, sediments which are rich in nutrients have become a problem. The fertility (富饶) of the entire system can be influenced with soils lost during seasonal rains not being replaced. Perhaps the biggest problem can be seen in deltas (三角洲) often host to large cities, which are sinking into the oceans. Groundwater is being extracted to feed the city, causing the urban weight to sink and sediments washed away by the ocean are no longer being replaced. The result is that sea level rise in cities from Shanghai to Alexandria. 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了建造水坝给人们的生活及自然环境带来的一些消极影响。 32．What effects does creating a reservoir have on people's life? a．People will see fewer birds near the rivers. b．Farmers below the dam may have less water to irrigate their field. c．Visitors can't see some cultural relics anymore. d．More conflicts and wars over water will break out. e．All kinds of fish will become extinct in the future. A．b c B．c e C．b d D．a c 答案：A　细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Downstream (在下游方向) of a dam, the flow may be reduced so that farmers cannot irrigate (灌溉) their field.”可知，水坝下游的农民们可能没有足够的水来灌溉土地，与b项意思一致。根据第二段第三句“Communities may lose their land, houses and cultural relics.”可知，水坝附近的土地，房子和文化遗迹会被淹没，这也就导致游客不能再参观这些文化遗迹了，与c项意思一致。故选A。 33．With many dams built across rivers, fish will ________． A．find more places to lay their eggs B．feed on more sediment rich in nutrient C．face a more dangerous living habitat D．find it easier to deal with the rise of water 答案：C　推理判断题。根据第三段第二句“However, it can cause greenhouse gas emissions (排放) and poison the water for fish.”可知，水库的建造会导致鱼类生活的水有毒，再根据第四段第三句中的“They also prevent fish migrations”可知，水库的建造会阻碍鱼类的迁徙。由此可推知，随着大量水库的建造，鱼类面临着更加危险的栖息地。故选C。 34．How can dams influence the cities like Shanghai? A．Its entire system will be influenced. B．It will lie below sea level in the future. C．The rainy season will last longer. D．Rich soils will be washed away. 答案：B　细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句“The result is that sea level rise in cities from Shanghai to Alexandria.”可知，大量水坝的修建会导致从上海市到亚历山大市的海平面上升。换句话说，未来上海市会位于海平面以下。故选B。 35．What does the text mainly talk about? A．Environmental benefits of dams. B．Cultural loss dam. C．Economical gain of dams. D．Environmental loss of dams. 答案：D　主旨大意题。根据第二段第一句“Dams besides all their attractive benefits also have negative impacts.”和第三段第二句“However, it can cause greenhouse gas emissions (排放) and poison the water for fish.”及第四段第一、二句“Dams don't just block water flow. The flow may be reduced so that farmers will have great trouble getting water for their fields.”可知，本文主要讲的是建造水坝所引起的环境损失。故选D。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Swap, Don't shop! You keep hearing about recycling, right? But it doesn't end with bottles, cans, and paper. Clothing takes a huge amount of natural resources (资源) to make, and buying loads of new clothing (or throwing out old clothing)is not healthy for the environment. So what to do with all those perfectly­good­but­you're­maybe­a­little­sick­of­them clothes piled on your bedroom floor? __36__. It's the best way to get rid of your used clothes, score clothes from your friends, and have a party all at the same time. A successful swap depends on the selection of clothes, the organization of the event, and, obviously, how much fun is had. It's really easy to do! Here are a few pointers. ●Invite 5－10 people so you have a nice selection. __37__， and there may not be enough things to choose from; more than that, and it becomes uncontrollable. ●__38__. They should also prepare plenty of reusable bags to carry their “new” clothes home. ●Put different types of clothing on different surfaces in the room. __39__. Place a few mirrors around your room so people can see how things look when they try them on. One of the ground rules of the swap should be that everyone must try on the clothes before they take them—things always look different when you put them on. ●Set a starting time. Maybe you say “go，” or turn on a certain song, or whatever. __40__. And don't forget to put out some cookies and fruits. Remember, it's a party! A．Less people than that B．Hold a clothing swap C．If two people are competing D．Just keep music playing throughout E．Donate whatever clothes are left over F．Have everyone put their clothes in the right spots G．Tell everyone to bring clean clothes in good condition 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种处理旧衣服的方法——衣物交换派对，以及一些具体的流程。 36．B　上一句提出问题：“那么，怎么处理那些堆在卧室地板上的完美但你可能有点讨厌的衣服呢？”而下一句则提到“这是处理你的旧衣服的最佳方法。”因此，设空处应该是解决问题的方法，B项(进行衣服交换)符合语境，故选B。 37．A　A项“Less people than that”与下文中的“more than that”相对应。此处表示邀请5～10个人，这样你就有了一个不错的选择。人比这少，可能没有足够的东西可供选择；比那更多的人参加，就变得无法控制。故选A。 38．G　下一句提到“他们还应该准备大量可重复使用的袋子，把‘新’衣服带回家。”G项(告诉大家带来干净的、完好的衣服)引出下文，故选G。 39．F　上一句提到“把不同类型的衣服放在房间的不同台面上。”下一句提到“在你的房间周围放几面镜子，这样人们在试穿时就能看出衣服是否合身。”F项(让每个人把衣服放在房间合适的地方)符合语境，故选F。 40．D　设空处上一句“Set a starting time. Maybe you say ‘go，’ or turn on a certain song, or whatever.”表示“设定开始时间。也许你说‘开始’，或者打开某首歌，或者别的什么。”D项(在这过程中一直播放音乐)符合语境，故选D。 第三部分　语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 One of the most pressing challenges the world will face in the next few decades is how to relieve the growing stress that human activities are placing on the environment. The consequences are just too great to __41__. Wildlife habitats are disappearing as new developments __42__ more land. Plant and animal species are getting in __43__ at a greater rate now than at any time in Earth's history. As many as 30 percent of the world's fish stocks are over－exploited. And the list goes on. __44__， there is reason to have hope for the future. Advances in computing power and molecular biology are __45__ the tremendous increases in scientific capability that are helping researchers __46__ a better understanding of these problems. Recent development in science and technology could provide the __47__ for some major and timely actions that would improve our understanding of how human activities affect the environment. One priority (优先处理的事) for research is improving hydrological (水文学的) forecasting. It is __48__ that the world's water use will triple (变成三倍) in the next two decades. Already, widespread water __49__ has occurred in parts of China, India, and North Africa. The need for water also is taking its toll (造成重大损失) on fresh water ecosystems in the United States.

Secondly, wherever we go, we should throw rubbish into rubbish bins to keep our city clean and tidy. Last but not least, we should plant more trees to protect our city's natural environment.

The organisation is aimed at helping children who suffer from cancer. One day, we were asked to raise money for cancer research and programme funding at an event. Since my friend Lisa was also a volunteer for the organisation, I went to the event with her. There were many people at the event. After seeing our poster, some people came to us and talked with us. But few people donated money. It was a big hot that day. Both Lisa and I got really upset. Half an hour later, Lisa started complaining, “I don't think we can raise much money today.” “Don't worry. The event lasts for three hours. There is still a lot of time left，” I said, though I also thought poorly of our plan to raise much money that day. While Lisa and I were talking, a little boy of about eight years old came to us. He stood in front of our poster and started reading. After a while, he asked, “What is cancer？” I explained what cancer is. Then I said, “Many people around the world are suffering from cancer. It can be really dangerous. More research is needed to learn about it so that people with it can suffer less. That's why we're collecting money for it.” “Do children suffer from cancer, too？” asked the boy. “Yes. Many children suffer from cancer. Some of them may die. They need help，” Lisa said and I nodded. Hearing that, the boy became sad. Then the boy asked, “How much money have you collected？” Both Lisa and I were embarrassed to tell him that we didn't raise much money. At last, we said, “Not much.” The boy looked into our donation container and only saw a few one－dollar and five－dollar bills. The boy said nothing after seeing that and left. Then some girls came to us and we started talking with them. Neither Lisa nor I thought the boy would return. However, about twenty minutes later, the boy did return. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 The boy happily ran to us and asked, “Would you take a donation from children？” 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 Both Lisa and I were deeply touched. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。“我”和朋友Lisa(丽莎)发起了一场为癌症患者募捐的活动，一个八岁的男孩好奇地向我们询问活动内容。“我”耐心地向男孩解释。听完后，男孩一言不发地走了。过了一会儿，男孩又开心地跑了回来。男孩为什么又回来？“我”和Lisa因为什么而深受感动？ [精彩范文] The boy happily ran to us and asked, “Would you take a donation from children？” Lisa and I looked at each other. We couldn't believe such a little boy would care. Though we didn't believe it, we said, “Yes.” The boy put his hand in his pocket and took out some five－dollar bills. He said, “I just asked for them from my mother. I really want to help the children suffering from cancer.” Both Lisa and I were deeply touched. We thanked the boy, but he left soon. Looking at his back, both Lisa and I were greatly encouraged. We wanted to try harder to raise money. So instead of just standing there, we went to people and told them about our programme. At the end of the day, we raised over three thousand dollars, a lot more than Lisa and I had expected in the beginning. 24 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$Unit . five第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话仅读一遍。Text one, what's your favorite sport?

Whether you are getting Young rabbits or old ones, you will experience all of the joys of raising them. Raising rabbits is much like raising other animals. Here are some things to help you raise and care for your rabbits so that they can live a happy life. When you bring rabbits home, they will be scared because rabbits are nervous by nature. Allow them a few weeks to get used to their surroundings. Always make sure your rabbits have a cage big enough to live in. They need to have enough room to move around, especially if they stay indoors, and you will teach them while you are gone. This sends the same adoption for your rabbits as well. Make sure to keep their diet consistent. Pet rabbits don't like IT when their food is changed. Often, aside from food, water is the most important for a rabbit. Always make sure they have fresh, cold water, provide a treat for them every now and then. Like carrots, there are certain types of trees at pet stores that are good, and your rabbits may like them. Rabbit care also means providing your rabbits with toys. Cat toys were great, especially balls with bells in the center. Larger rabbits will live in play with things such as pop cans and pop bottles.
