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
How would you feel if moving to a new town meant losing track of your friends? What if the only way of getting news from faraway friends was writing letters that took ages to be delivered? This was how things worked not very long ago. Thanks to advances in technology, how we make friends and communicate with them has changed significantly.
Nowadays, we can move around the world and still stay in touch with the people that we want to remain friends with. Social media tools let us see what our friends are up to and maintain friendships. All you need is a wi-fi connection.
The digital age also enables us to find people who share our interests, such as collecting model cars or playing an unusual instrument. Whatever our hobbies, the Internet can connect us with others who also enjoy doing them, even if they live on the other side of the world.
But when you “friend” people online, does this mean that they really are your friends?
It depends.
If people always exchange true personal information online, then yes, these friendships can be real and meaningful. But we need to keep in mind that what we see on social media is often not the whole truth about a person.
On social media sites, people tend to post only positive updates that make them appear happy and friendly. But smiling photos can hide real problems. Remember the saying: on the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog. A young person could be old; a woman could be a man; we could even be sharing our information with criminals.
But this doesn’t mean that we should throw the baby out with the bathwater. Although technology has changed the way we acquire friends, the meaning of friendship and our longing for friends remain the same. As Aristotle said, no one would choose to live without friends, even if he had all other goods.
21. What does the phrase “up to” in paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A. Referring B. Intending (打算) C. Proving D. Doing
22. What enables us to find people with the same hobbies throughout the world nowadays?
A. The digital cameras. B. The Internet. C. The telephones. D. The televisions.
23. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. You can’t make real friends online.
B. Not what we see on social media is all true.
C. Real friends online often change personal information.
D. All people post only good things on social media sites.
B
Many animals move from one place to another at certain times of the year. This annual movement is called migration. They migrate to find food, seek a partner, or in search of warmer weather. One of the most wonderful migrations in nature is that of the North American monarch butterfly.
Every autumn, millions of these beautiful insects with fine black and orange wings begin a long and difficult journey. Somehow they manage to travel around 4,000 kilometres south and find their way to California or Mexico. However, until recently no one knew how they did this.
A team of scientists led by Professor Eli Shlizerman at the University of Washington has now found the answer. They have found out that the monarch is able to tell the time of day. It uses its eyes to measure the position of the sun. These two pieces of information — the time of day and the point where the sun is in the sky — allow the butterfly to determine the way to go. Eventually, it manages to reach the places where it will spend the winter.
The solution to the mystery of the monarch’s amazing ability comes at a time when it is in serious trouble. Its population has crashed by as much as 90 per cent in the last few years. Sadly, human activity is the main reason why the number of monarch butterflies is falling. In many of the places where the butterfly can be found, people are destroying the natural environment. They cut down trees and use chemicals that kill the plants that monarch caterpillars eat.
The research on the monarch’s behaviour has however led to a greater awareness of this creature. People have been working together to record its migration and make sure that there are enough plants for it to feed on. If this works, there may come a time when the number of monarch butterflies increases once again. The more we know about this lovely creature, the greater the chance it will survive and keep its place in the natural world for a long time to come.
24. What can we learn about the North American monarch butterflies from para. 2 and para. 3?
A. Every two years they will migrate to spend the winter.
B. They have ugly black and orange wings.
C. Now people have known how they manage to travel such a long distance.
D. They manage to travel around 4,000 kilometers north and find their way to places where they will spend the winter.
25. What will probably happen to the North American monarch butterfly if it is cloudy?
A. It may lose its way. B. It can’t see anything.
C. It can’t find any food. D. It will feel very cold.
26. What does the word “crash” in Para.4 mean?
A. Succeed. B. Fail. C. Increase. D. Drop.
27. Where are you most likely to find the passage?
A. In a scientific research paper. B. In a popular nature magazine.
C. In a travel leaflet. D. In a science fiction (小说).
C
As a nature photographer, I have to brave the elements. But despite the wind and the rain, I still enjoy working outside in the wild. One of the best things about this job is that you can observe animals in their natural environment.
My favourite place to take photos is Yellowstone National Park. As the world’s first national park, Yellowstone is famous for the variety of its wildlife, but it is probably best known for its bears. These huge, strong animals can live for 30 years. Despite a weight of up to 300 kilograms, they can run at a speed of around 64 kilometres per hour and are also excellent swimmers.
Last spring in Yellowstone, I followed a path that took me through a dark forest. When I finally stepped out of the trees, the view was breathtaking. An eagle flew over the snow-capped mountains, which were reflected in the still lake below. While I was concentrating on photographing this amazing scene, I suddenly had a feeling that I was being watched. Slowly, and with the camera still held to my eye, I turned... and froze. Only meters away from me was a bear. With water falling off its thick, brown hair, the bear stared back at me. Time stood still as the bear and I both waited to see who would move first. My legs started shaking. Somehow, I forced my finger to press the button. A second later, the bear turned and ran back into the forest. When I recovered from the shock, I looked at my camera. My most frightening but magical experience was now captured forever in a single image.
From time to time I look at the photo as a reminder to show respect to all animals. It is after all we who are the visitors to their world.
28 What do we know about Yellowstone National Park?
A. It is where the author most likes to go.
B. It is famous for all kinds of trees.
C. It has wet bears and eagle everywhere.
D. It is a dark forest with a long path.
29. How do we know about the author’s getting the photo of the bear?
A. The author designed the scene ahead(提前).
B. The bear did the action for him.
C. The bear stood still before him.
D. The author got it quite by accident.
30. Which word can best describe the author’s feeling when the bear stared back at him?
A. Scared. B. Excited. C. Thankful. D. Respectful.
31. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Working outside in the wild
B. Photos taken in Yellowstone National Park
C. An unforgettable experience in the wild
D. A photo taken with a brown bear
D
In the 13th century Marco Polo, the world known Italian traveller, saw many wonderful things in China. One of the things he discovered was money made of paper. People in the West did not have such kind of money until the 15th century. However, the Chinese began to use it in the 7th century.
Paper was invented by a Chinese man called Cai Lun almost 2,000 years ago, but it was not made in Europe until the year 1100. Four hundred years later, a German discovered that he could make the best paper from trees. After that, countries rich in forests, such as Canada, Sweden, America and Finland became the most important ones in paper making.
Paper can be used in many ways. The common uses include newspapers magazines and books. But do you know that paper can be used for keeping warm? In Finland, the farmers wear paper boots to keep their feet warm in the snow. And even houses can be insulated (使绝缘) from heat or cold with paper.
However, we have to understand that paper still comes from trees now. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth some day in the near future. Every day people throw away about 2, 800 tons of paper in our city. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting down nearly 48,000 trees every day. The fact is that it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow.
So we must start saving paper right now. We can use both sides of every piece of paper. We can make useful things out of used paper. We can use china cups instead of paper ones. When shopping, we can use fewer paper bags and reuse them if we have some
In short, we should keep a balance (平衡) between using paper and protecting trees, and do it now before it is too late.
32. When did the Chinese begin to use paper money?
A. In the 5th century. B. In the 6th century.
C. In the 7th century. D. In the 15th century.
33. Why did Canada become an important country in paper making?
A. Because it was a large country. B. Because it had lots of forests.
C. Because it was a very rich country. D. Because the inventor was from Canada.
34. In Finland, paper is used for .
A. making beds B. reducing waste
C. making umbrellas D. keeping warm
35. According to the passage, how many trees are needed to make one ton of paper?
A. 10. B. 17. C. 2,800. D. 48,000.
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。
People set goals for their lives. Perhaps you want to lose weight, learn a new skill or read 30 books a year. But then you get busy and your daily life takes up all of your time. Before you know it, weeks, then months have gone by and you are no closer to your goal.____36____
. Make a specific plan
Adding details to your plan helps you act better. Be sure to add when and where. If your goal is to work out five days each week, a plan like “I’ll work out on weekdays” would be too vague. But a careful plan like “I’ll work out at the gym on weekdays when I’m on my lunch break” would be just right. ____37____ For example, if you plan to work out during lunch, you’ll be sure to refuse a lunch invitation from others.
. Consider punishment
This may sound difficult, but ensuring you’ll face some punishment if you don’t achieve your goal can work wonders. One easy way to do this is to tell a few people about your goal. You’ll feel ashamed if they check back later and find out you haven’t followed through. Feeling ashamed is a kind of spiritual punishment. You can also make a bet with a friend that you’ll stick to your goal. ____38____
. Make it fun
Most of us concentrate on the final result when it comes to achieving our goals. ____39____ Are you enjoying the process of working to you goal? If it’s not fun to exercise or study, you’re unlikely to keep at it. But if you get happiness from your works or study, you’ll persist longer. It’s the pursuit of your goals — not the reaching of them — that makes up the weeks, days and hours of our lives. So make sure to have fun along the way!
. Get a little help from your friends
Spending time around high achievers can improve your own performance. If your aim is to run a marathon(马拉松)or write a book, you’d be clever to start hanging around friends who’ve made it to the finish line and can show you how it’s done. You’ll learn a lot just by spending time together with these friends. ____40____ Giving your friends tips on how to achieve improve your self-confidence and motivate you to succeed.
A There is proof that giving cash as a punishment can encourage people to succeed.
B. It can also help you avoid interruptions(打断).
C. Helping friends who have the same goals also make you more likely to succeed.
D. Who could you ask for help?
E. If you want to keep doing it, try the following ways.
F. But focusing too much on it can make us ignore a more important thing.
G. Friends are aware of your strengths and weaknesses.

Since then, both Beth and I have seemed to attract (吸引) butterflies like flowers. _____50_____ we stay outside, they would fly down to us.

The only time this doesn’t happen is during the coldest months of the year because _____53_____ insects can get through freezing weather.

Jack had just moved to a new town with his parents and he was new at Emerson School. He was really worried because he had a speech (演讲) problem. In the past, his old classmates often laughed at him because of it.
Luckily, Katherine, Jack’s science teacher in the new school, quickly saw why Jack was so nervous and didn’t want to speak in class. She decided to help him. Whenever Jack had trouble speaking, this kind teacher would give him an encouraging smile and say, “You are so great!” The teacher hoped that with her encouragement, Jack could get the confidence. But unfortunately, all her efforts didn’t work.
One day in class, Katherine said that every student had to stand in front of the class and give their answer to a question in their own special way. When Jack heard this, that familiar fear and worry came back. He kept thinking about how he could stand in front of his classmates and explain his answer clearly. He was also worried that his classmates would laugh at his speech problem again. He just sat there, watching his classmates go up to the front one by one. Most of them did their speech smoothly (顺利地) and went back to their seats with big smiles. But Jack was so nervous while waiting for his turn to come (轮到他), it felt like he was sitting on needles (针).
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Finally, his turn came.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When Jack finished his speech, everyone in the room started to clap(鼓掌).

第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50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
How would you feel if moving to a new town meant losing track of your friends? What if the only way of getting news from faraway friends was writing letters that took ages to be delivered? This was how things worked not very long ago. Thanks to advances in technology, how we make friends and communicate with them has changed significantly.
Nowadays, we can move around the world and still stay in touch with the people that we want to remain friends with. Social media tools let us see what our friends are up to and maintain friendships. All you need is a wi-fi connection.
The digital age also enables us to find people who share our interests, such as collecting model cars or playing an unusual instrument. Whatever our hobbies, the Internet can connect us with others who also enjoy doing them, even if they live on the other side of the world.
But when you “friend” people online, does this mean that they really are your friends?
It depends.
If people always exchange true personal information online, then yes, these friendships can be real and meaningful. But we need to keep in mind that what we see on social media is often not the whole truth about a person.
On social media sites, people tend to post only positive updates that make them appear happy and friendly. But smiling photos can hide real problems. Remember the saying: on the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog. A young person could be old; a woman could be a man; we could even be sharing our information with criminals.
But this doesn’t mean that we should throw the baby out with the bathwater. Although technology has changed the way we acquire friends, the meaning of friendship and our longing for friends remain the same. As Aristotle said, no one would choose to live without friends, even if he had all other goods.
21. What does the phrase “up to” in paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A. Referring B. Intending (打算) C. Proving D. Doing
22. What enables us to find people with the same hobbies throughout the world nowadays?
A. The digital cameras. B. The Internet. C. The telephones. D. The televisions.
23. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. You can’t make real friends online.
B. Not what we see on social media is all true.
C. Real friends online often change personal information.
D. All people post only good things on social media sites.
【答案】21. D 22. B 23. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科技进步对人们交友和交流方式的影响。
【21题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上文“Nowadays, we can move around the world and still stay in touch with the people that we want to remain friends with.( 如今,我们可以周游世界,仍然与我们想要保持朋友关系的人保持联系)”可知,社交媒体工具让我们可以和朋友保持联系,了解他们在做什么。由此可知,up to意为“做”。故选D。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The digital age also enables us to find people who share our interests, such as collecting model cars or playing an unusual instrument. Whatever our hobbies, the Internet can connect us with others who also enjoy doing them, even if they live on the other side of the world. (数字时代也使我们能够找到与我们有共同兴趣的人,比如收集汽车模型或演奏一种不寻常的乐器。无论我们的爱好是什么,互联网都可以将我们与同样喜欢做这些事情的人联系起来,即使他们生活在世界的另一端)”可知,是互联网让我们找到有共同兴趣的人。故选B。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段“But we need to keep in mind that what we see on social media is often not the whole truth about a person. (但我们需要记住,我们在社交媒体上看到的往往不是一个人的全部真相)”可知,我们在社交媒体上看到的不是全部真相。故选B。
B
Many animals move from one place to another at certain times of the year. This annual movement is called migration. They migrate to find food, seek a partner, or in search of warmer weather. One of the most wonderful migrations in nature is that of the North American monarch butterfly.
Every autumn, millions of these beautiful insects with fine black and orange wings begin a long and difficult journey. Somehow they manage to travel around 4,000 kilometres south and find their way to California or Mexico. However, until recently no one knew how they did this.
A team of scientists led by Professor Eli Shlizerman at the University of Washington has now found the answer. They have found out that the monarch is able to tell the time of day. It uses its eyes to measure the position of the sun. These two pieces of information — the time of day and the point where the sun is in the sky — allow the butterfly to determine the way to go. Eventually, it manages to reach the places where it will spend the winter.
The solution to the mystery of the monarch’s amazing ability comes at a time when it is in serious trouble. Its population has crashed by as much as 90 per cent in the last few years. Sadly, human activity is the main reason why the number of monarch butterflies is falling. In many of the places where the butterfly can be found, people are destroying the natural environment. They cut down trees and use chemicals that kill the plants that monarch caterpillars eat.
The research on the monarch’s behaviour has however led to a greater awareness of this creature. People have been working together to record its migration and make sure that there are enough plants for it to feed on. If this works, there may come a time when the number of monarch butterflies increases once again. The more we know about this lovely creature, the greater the chance it will survive and keep its place in the natural world for a long time to come.
24. What can we learn about the North American monarch butterflies from para. 2 and para. 3?
A. Every two years they will migrate to spend the winter.
B. They have ugly black and orange wings.
C. Now people have known how they manage to travel such a long distance.
D. They manage to travel around 4,000 kilometers north and find their way to places where they will spend the winter.
25. What will probably happen to the North American monarch butterfly if it is cloudy?
A. It may lose its way. B. It can’t see anything.
C. It can’t find any food. D. It will feel very cold.
26. What does the word “crash” in Para.4 mean?
A. Succeed. B. Fail. C. Increase. D. Drop.
27. Where are you most likely to find the passage?
A. In a scientific research paper. B. In a popular nature magazine.
C. In a travel leaflet. D. In a science fiction (小说).
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. D 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了北美帝王蝶的迁徙现象、迁徙原理、面临的困境以及人们为保护它们所做的努力。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Every autumn, millions of these beautiful insects with fine black and orange wings begin a long and difficult journey. Somehow they manage to travel around 4,000 kilometres south and find their way to California or Mexico. However, until recently no one knew how they did this.(每年秋天,数以百万计的这种长着黑色和橙色翅膀的美丽昆虫开始漫长而艰难的旅程。不知怎么的,它们设法向南飞行大约4000公里,找到去加利福尼亚或墨西哥的路。然而,直到最近才有人知道它们是如何做到这一点的。)”以及第三段“A team of scientists led by Professor Eli Shlizerman at the University of Washington has now found the answer.(由华盛顿大学的Eli Shlizerman教授领导的一个科学家小组现在找到了答案。)”可知,人们现在已经知道北美的帝王蝶是如何飞行这么远的距离的。故选C。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“They have found out that the monarch is able to tell the time of day. It uses its eyes to measure the position of the sun. These two pieces of information — the time of day and the point where the sun is in the sky — allow the butterfly to determine the way to go.(他们发现帝王蝶能够分辨一天中的时间。它用眼睛测量太阳的位置。这两个信息——一天中的时间和太阳在天空中的位置——让蝴蝶决定前进的方向。)”可推知,如果多云,北美的帝王蝶可能会迷路。故选A。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“Sadly, human activity is the main reason why the number of monarch butterflies is falling. In many of the places where the butterfly can be found, people are destroying the natural environment. They cut down trees and use chemicals that kill the plants that monarch caterpillars eat.(可悲的是,人类活动是帝王蝶数量下降的主要原因。在许多有帝王蝶出没的地方,人们正在破坏自然环境。他们砍伐树木,使用化学物质杀死帝王蝶幼虫食用的植物。)”可知,由于人类活动,帝王蝶赖以生存的植物被杀死,所以帝王蝶的数量下降了90%。由此可知,crash意为“下降”。故选D。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Many animals move from one place to another at certain times of the year. This annual movement is called migration. They migrate to find food, seek a partner, or in search of warmer weather. One of the most wonderful migrations in nature is that of the North American monarch butterfly.(许多动物在一年中的某些时候会从一个地方迁移到另一个地方。这种一年一度的迁徙被称为迁徙。它们迁徙是为了寻找食物、寻找伴侣或寻找更温暖的天气。自然界中最美妙的迁徙之一是北美的帝王蝶。)”以及下文内容可知,文章主要介绍了北美帝王蝶的迁徙现象、迁徙原理、面临的困境以及人们为保护它们所做的努力。由此可推知,文章最有可能出现在一本受欢迎的自然杂志上。故选B。
C
As a nature photographer, I have to brave the elements. But despite the wind and the rain, I still enjoy working outside in the wild. One of the best things about this job is that you can observe animals in their natural environment.
My favourite place to take photos is Yellowstone National Park. As the world’s first national park, Yellowstone is famous for the variety of its wildlife, but it is probably best known for its bears. These huge, strong animals can live for 30 years. Despite a weight of up to 300 kilograms, they can run at a speed of around 64 kilometres per hour and are also excellent swimmers.
Last spring in Yellowstone, I followed a path that took me through a dark forest. When I finally stepped out of the trees, the view was breathtaking. An eagle flew over the snow-capped mountains, which were reflected in the still lake below. While I was concentrating on photographing this amazing scene, I suddenly had a feeling that I was being watched. Slowly, and with the camera still held to my eye, I turned... and froze. Only meters away from me was a bear. With water falling off its thick, brown hair, the bear stared back at me. Time stood still as the bear and I both waited to see who would move first. My legs started shaking. Somehow, I forced my finger to press the button. A second later, the bear turned and ran back into the forest. When I recovered from the shock, I looked at my camera. My most frightening but magical experience was now captured forever in a single image.
From time to time I look at the photo as a reminder to show respect to all animals. It is after all we who are the visitors to their world.
28. What do we know about Yellowstone National Park?
A. It is where the author most likes to go.
B. It is famous for all kinds of trees.
C. It has wet bears and eagle everywhere.
D. It is a dark forest with a long path.
29. How do we know about the author’s getting the photo of the bear?
A. The author designed the scene ahead(提前).
B. The bear did the action for him.
C. The bear stood still before him.
D. The author got it quite by accident.
30. Which word can best describe the author’s feeling when the bear stared back at him?
A. Scared. B. Excited. C. Thankful. D. Respectful.
31. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Working outside in the wild
B. Photos taken in Yellowstone National Park
C. An unforgettable experience in the wild
D. A photo taken with a brown bear
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作为自热摄影师的作者在黄石国家公园的一次难忘经历,特别是与一只熊的近距离遭遇。作者通过生动的描写和细节展现了当时的紧张氛围和自己的内心感受,同时表达了对自然和动物的尊重。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“My favourite place to take photos is Yellowstone National Park.(我最喜欢拍摄照片的地方是黄石国家公园。)”可知,黄石国家公园是作者最喜欢去拍照的地方。故选A。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“While I was concentrating on photographing this amazing scene, I suddenly had a feeling that I was being watched. Slowly, and with the camera still held to my eye, I turned... and froze. Only meters away from me was a bear. With water falling off its thick, brown hair, the bear stared back at me. Time stood still as the bear and I both waited to see who would move first. My legs started shaking. Somehow, I forced my finger to press the button. A second later, the bear turned and ran back into the forest.(当我正专注地拍摄这一神奇景象时,突然有种被监视的感觉。我慢慢地转动身体,相机仍贴在眼前…… 然后我僵住了。离我只有几米远的地方有一只熊。这只熊浓密的棕色毛发上还滴着水,它也盯着我看。时间仿佛静止了,我和熊都在等着看谁会先行动。我的双腿开始颤抖。不知怎的,我强迫自己按下了快门按钮。一秒钟后,那只熊转身跑回了森林。)”可知,作者原本在专注拍摄美丽的风景,突然发现有只熊在不远处盯着自己,在惊慌害怕中,作者下意识地按下了快门,拍到了这只熊。所以作者拍到熊的照片完全是偶然的。故选D。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Slowly, and with the camera still held to my eye, I turned... and froze. Only meters away from me was a bear. With water falling off its thick, brown hair, the bear stared back at me. Time stood still as the bear and I both waited to see who would move first. My legs started shaking.

【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知,文章开篇介绍作者作为自然摄影师喜欢在野外工作及观察动物,接着重点描述了在黄石国家公园的一次经历。作者在拍摄美景时意外遇到一只熊,在紧张害怕中拍下了熊的照片,最后作者表示这张照片提醒他要尊重动物。所以,这篇文章主要讲述的是在野外的一次难忘经历。选项C“An unforgettable experience in the wild(在野外的一次难忘经历)”很好地概括了作者在黄石国家公园与熊相遇这一难忘经历,符合文章主旨。故选C。
D
In the 13th century Marco Polo, the world known Italian traveller, saw many wonderful things in China. One of the things he discovered was money made of paper. People in the West did not have such kind of money until the 15th century. However, the Chinese began to use it in the 7th century.
Paper was invented by a Chinese man called Cai Lun almost 2,000 years ago, but it was not made in Europe until the year 1100. Four hundred years later, a German discovered that he could make the best paper from trees. After that, countries rich in forests, such as Canada, Sweden, America and Finland became the most important ones in paper making.
Paper can be used in many ways. The common uses include newspapers magazines and books. But do you know that paper can be used for keeping warm? In Finland, the farmers wear paper boots to keep their feet warm in the snow. And even houses can be insulated (使绝缘) from heat or cold with paper.
However, we have to understand that paper still comes from trees now. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth some day in the near future. Every day people throw away about 2, 800 tons of paper in our city. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting down nearly 48,000 trees every day. The fact is that it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow.
So we must start saving paper right now. We can use both sides of every piece of paper. We can make useful things out of used paper. We can use china cups instead of paper ones. When shopping, we can use fewer paper bags and reuse them if we have some
In short, we should keep a balance (平衡) between using paper and protecting trees, and do it now before it is too late.
32. When did the Chinese begin to use paper money?
A. In the 5th century. B. In the 6th century.

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。
People set goals for their lives. Perhaps you want to lose weight, learn a new skill or read 30 books a year. But then you get busy and your daily life takes up all of your time. Before you know it, weeks, then months have gone by and you are no closer to your goal.____36____
. Make a specific plan
Adding details to your plan helps you act better. Be sure to add when and where. If your goal is to work out five days each week, a plan like “I’ll work out on weekdays” would be too vague. But a careful plan like “I’ll work out at the gym on weekdays when I’m on my lunch break” would be just right. ____37____ For example, if you plan to work out during lunch, you’ll be sure to refuse a lunch invitation from others.
. Consider punishment
This may sound difficult, but ensuring you’ll face some punishment if you don’t achieve your goal can work wonders. One easy way to do this is to tell a few people about your goal. You’ll feel ashamed if they check back later and find out you haven’t followed through. Feeling ashamed is a kind of spiritual punishment. You can also make a bet with a friend that you’ll stick to your goal. ____38____
. Make it fun
Most of us concentrate on the final result when it comes to achieving our goals. ____39____ Are you enjoying the process of working to you goal? If it’s not fun to exercise or study, you’re unlikely to keep at it. But if you get happiness from your works or study, you’ll persist longer. It’s the pursuit of your goals — not the reaching of them — that makes up the weeks, days and hours of our lives. So make sure to have fun along the way!
. Get a little help from your friends
Spending time around high achievers can improve your own performance. If your aim is to run a marathon(马拉松)or write a book, you’d be clever to start hanging around friends who’ve made it to the finish line and can show you how it’s done. You’ll learn a lot just by spending time together with these friends. ____40____ Giving your friends tips on how to achieve improve your self-confidence and motivate you to succeed.
A. There is proof that giving cash as a punishment can encourage people to succeed.
B. It can also help you avoid interruptions(打断).
C. Helping friends who have the same goals also make you more likely to succeed.
D. Who could you ask for help?
E. If you want to keep doing it, try the following ways.
F But focusing too much on it can make us ignore a more important thing.
G. Friends are aware of your strengths and weaknesses.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了广西壮族和瑶族人民修建梯田的原因、梯田的作用以及其精妙的设计。
【56题详解】
考查动词时态语态。句意:这些梯田是由当地以广西为故乡的壮族和瑶族人民修建的。根据后文“by the local Zhuang and Yao people”可知,梯田是被建造的,应用被动语态;又因为描述的是过去的事情,所以用一般过去时的被动语态,主语“These terraces”是复数,be动词应用were。故填were built。
【57题详解】
考查名词。句意:从元朝开始,梯田的修筑历经多年,直至清朝初期才得以完工。its是形容词性物主代词,后面应接名词,complete的名词形式是completion,表示“完成”,是不可数名词。故填completion。
【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:那么,这些人为什么要费如此大的力气把整片山区改造成梯田呢?go to trouble to do sth.是固定搭配,意为“不辞辛劳地做某事”,所以此处用动词不定式to turn。故填to turn。
【59题详解】
考查副词。句意:首先,这一地区少有大片平坦的土地。此处表示“首先”,且在句中作状语,修饰整个句子,应用副词形式,first的副词形式是firstly,位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Firstly。
【60题详解】
考查冠词。句意同上。此处特指上文提到的广西这个地区,应用定冠词the表特指,in the region意为“在这个地区”。故填the。
【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:因此,修建梯田意味着他们能够扩大水稻的种植面积。空处应用非谓语动词作主语,且此处表示一般性的、抽象的动作,应用动名词building作主语,位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Building。
【62题详解】
考查名词。句意:其次,尽管该地区雨水充沛,但山势陡峭,土壤浅薄。根据后文“are”可知,主语应用复数形式,mountain的复数是mountains。故填mountains。
【63题详解】
考查介词。句意:平坦的梯田能够蓄积雨水,防止土壤被冲走。prevent...from doing sth.是固定搭配,意为“阻止……做某事”,所以此处填介词from。故填from。
【64题详解】
考查介词。句意:但也许最重要的是,人们与自然和谐相处,建造这些梯田并种植水稻的方式。in harmony with是固定短语,意为“与……和谐相处”,所以此处填介词with。故填with。
【65题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:这些梯田设计巧妙,拥有数百条相互连通的水渠。分析句子结构可知,“_____ connect with each other”是定语从句,先行词waterways,指物,在从句中作主语,所以可以用关系代词that或which引导定语从句。故填that/which。
第三节 (共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
在空白处填入1个适当单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
66. It was a close match and she ________(anxious) watched the screen. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】anxiously
【解析】
【详解】考查副词。句意:这是一场势均力敌的比赛,她焦急地看着屏幕。空格处位于动词前,修饰动词,所以需要用副词;anxious的副词为anxiously,意为“焦急地”。故填anxiously。
67. The patient was ________ (comfort) after a rest. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】comfortable
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:病人休息后感到很舒服。空处应填形容词作表语,comfortable“舒服的”,形容词,故填comfortable。
68. His ___________ (inspire)speech encouraged us to try again. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】inspiring
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:他的鼓舞人心的演讲鼓励我们再次尝试。此处修饰名词speech,需要形容词作定语。应用-ing结尾形容词inspiring“鼓舞人心的”,该形容词用来描述人或事物本身具有激发他人灵感或鼓舞人心的特性。故填inspiring。
69. The magician’s performance was really _________ (amaze). (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】amazing
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:魔术师的表演真是令人惊叹。空处作表语,主语为物,需用形容词amazing。故填amazing。
70. This company was _________ (found) in 1990. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】founded
【解析】
【详解】考查动词语态。句意:这家公司成立于1990年。根据时间状语“in 1990”可知,此处为一般过去时,this company和found为被动关系,需用被动语态,已有be动词was,空处需填过去分词。故填founded。
71. He was known for his ___________ (generous) to his colleagues. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】generosity
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:他对同事的慷慨是出了名的。作介词的宾语,应用名词generosity,不可数。故填generosity。

【答案】limited
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:小组合作可以使我们在有限的时间内更有效率地工作。分析句子结构可知,空处可使用形容词limited(有限的)在句中作定语修饰名词time。故填limited。
73. We are _________ (determine) to achieve our goals. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】determined
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:我们决心实现我们的目标。空处作表语,需用形容词determined“下定决心的”,be determined to do sth.意为“下定决心做某事”。故填determined。
74. The ________________ (please) time we spent together was really unforgettable. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】pleasant
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:我们在一起度过的愉快时光真是令人难忘。空处修饰time,作前置定语,描述事物的性质,形容词pleasant“令人愉快的”符合题意,表示舒适、愉快的感觉。故填pleasant。
75. We were greatly________ (encourage) by the positive response of the public. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】encouraged
【解析】
【详解】考查语态。句意:公众的积极反应使我们深受鼓舞。主语we与动词encourage之间为被动关系,设空处填过去分词构成一般过去时的被动语态。故填encouraged。

77. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头请续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Jack had just moved to a new town with his parents and he was new at Emerson School. He was really worried because he had a speech (演讲) problem. In the past, his old classmates often laughed at him because of it.
Luckily, Katherine, Jack’s science teacher in the new school, quickly saw why Jack was so nervous and didn’t want to speak in class. She decided to help him. Whenever Jack had trouble speaking, this kind teacher would give him an encouraging smile and say, “You are so great!” The teacher hoped that with her encouragement, Jack could get the confidence. But unfortunately, all her efforts didn’t work.
One day in class, Katherine said that every student had to stand in front of the class and give their answer to a question in their own special way. When Jack heard this, that familiar fear and worry came back. He kept thinking about how he could stand in front of his classmates and explain his answer clearly. He was also worried that his classmates would laugh at his speech problem again. He just sat there, watching his classmates go up to the front one by one. Most of them did their speech smoothly (顺利地) and went back to their seats with big smiles. But Jack was so nervous while waiting for his turn to come (轮到他), it felt like he was sitting on needles (针).
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Finally, his turn came.

When Jack finished his speech, everyone in the room started to clap(鼓掌).
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Finally, his turn came. Jack’s knees were knocking as he walked to the front. His mind went blank for a moment, but then he remembered Katherine’s countless kind words. He forced himself to focus on the task. As he started speaking, his voice was barely above a whisper, yet he continued. Midway, he stuttered on a complex term, and his face flushed. But glancing at Katherine’s unwavering support, he found the strength to correct himself. Slowly, his voice grew louder and steadier.
When Jack finished his speech, everyone in the room started to clap. Tears welled up in Jack’s eyes. He couldn’t believe it; the applause was deafening. His classmates rushed forward to pat his back and offer words of praise. Katherine came up and gave him a big hug, whispering, “You surpassed yourself, Jack.” From that day, Jack actively participated in class. Whenever he felt scared, he’d recall that moment of triumph. He learned that with a little courage and a lot of support, any hurdle could be overcome.
