VI. 任务型阅读 (61—63每小题2分,64小题3分,共9分)
阅读下文并回答问题。
After 12 hours on the operating table (手术台) and 4 hours of sleeping in bed, I woke up in the hospital with my leg bandaged. For the next three months, I couldn’t walk; I couldn’t drive; I couldn’t even take a shower on my own.
I turned to my husband, Adam, and asked. “How are we going to deal with all the problems in front of us? Who would pick up our kids each school day? Who would feed and walk the dogs? Who would prepare dinner?”
“We’ll work it out.” Adam said. I just nodded (点头) my head, saying nothing. But nowhere in my heart did I believe him. Not even a little bit.
I shared my accident on the Internet. And something I never expected happened: friends both near and far asked me how they could help. I wrote back, thanking them all but not accepting their kind offers. But when we got back home, a friend helped to take care of our meals for the first month of my recovery (恢复). Parents in our school picked my kids up from school each afternoon. Friends sent books and food.
My children also changed a lot. They no more asked me to send them to school, to prepare their lunch boxes or to make sure their homework was in their bags. They learned to do it by themselves. Each day after school, they ran back home quickly to see if I was fine. My daughter tried many ways like playing light music or funny movies to help me go through the hard time. When I was taking my slow, painful PT exercises (术后康复训练), my son got a fork or a bottle of water for me whenever he was asked, never complaining. They all seemed to be better for my accident.
41. Did the writer ask for others’ help on the Internet?
______________________________
42. How long wouldn’t the writer be able to walk?
______________________________
43. Why did the writer say her children seemed better for her accident?
______________________________
44. Do you like sharing your situation on the Internet? Why or why not?

【答案】41. No./No, she didn’t.
42. Three months.
43. Because they learned to do something by themselves and cared more about her.
44. Yes. Because I think I can get more advice from others. (言之有理即可)
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述作者的腿在手术后行动不便,许多朋友在网上得知后帮助她,孩子们也改变了很多。
【41题详解】
根据“I wrote back, thanking them all but not accepting their kind offers.”可知,作者没有在网上寻求他人的帮助。故填No./No, she didn’t.
【42题详解】
根据“For the next three months, I couldn’t walk; I couldn’t drive; I couldn’t even take a shower on my own.”可知,接下来三个月,作者不能走路。故填Three months.
43题详解】
根据“They no more asked me to send them to school, to prepare their lunch boxes or to make sure their homework was in their bags. They learned to do it by themselves.”可知,孩子们会学着自己的事情自己完成;再根据“Each day after school, they ran back home quickly to see if I was fine. My daughter tried many ways like playing light music or funny movies to help me go through the hard time. When I was taking my slow, painful PT exercises (术后康复训练), my son got a fork or a bottle of water for me whenever he was asked, never complaining.”可知,孩子们会在放学后照顾作者;结合这两方面,作者认为她的孩子似乎更好了。故填Because they learned to do something by themselves and cared more about her.
【44题详解】
开放性试题,答案言之有理即可。参考答案为Yes. Because I think I can get more advice from others.
VII. 所给词正确形式填空。(每小题1分,共5分)
用括号内所给单词的适当形式填空。(每小题1分,共5分)
45. The boy spent much time on computer games, so his grades ________ (drop).
【答案】dropped
【解析】
【详解】句意:这个男孩花了很多时间在电脑游戏上,所以他的成绩下降了。根据“The boy spent much time on computer games”可知,句子时态为一般过去时。“drop”作动词,有“下降;降低”的意思,其过去式为“dropped”。故填dropped。
46. ________ (push) children too hard isn’t good for their development.
【答案】Pushing
【解析】
【详解】句意:给孩子们施加太大压力对他们的发展没有好处。分析句子结构,“…children too hard”在句中作主语,“push”是动词,意为“推动;逼迫”,在这里用动名词形式“pushing”作主语,表示“逼迫孩子”这一行为。句首单词首字母大写。故填Pushing。
47. Sharing chores can help children understand the idea of ________ (fair).
【答案】fairness
【解析】
【详解】句意:分担家务可以帮助孩子们理解公平的概念。“the idea of...”表示“……的概念”,of是介词,后面接名词。“fair”是形容词,意为“公平的”,其名词形式是“fairness”,意为“公平;公正”。故填fairness。
48. My mother ________ (sweep) the floor when I came back home from school.
【答案】was sweeping
【解析】
【详解】句意:当我从学校回家时,我妈妈正在扫地。根据“when I came back home from school.”可知,空处应用过去进行时was/were+doing,主语是单数,be用was。故填was sweeping。
49. ________ (luck), this boy caught the early bus even his alarm didn’t go off.
【答案】Luckily
【解析】
【详解】句意:幸运的是,即使这个男孩的闹钟没有响,他还是赶上了早班车。所填单词在句中作状语,修饰整个句子。“luck”是名词,意为“运气”,其副词形式“luckily”表示“幸运地”,副词在句中作状语,句首单词首字母需大写。故填Luckily。
VII. 完成句子。(每小题2分,共10分)
根据所给提示, 完成句子, 每空一词, 含缩略词。
50. John was talking to his friend on the phone at 8 pm yesterday. (改成否定句)
John ________ ________ to his friends on the phone at 8 pm yesterday.
【答案】 ①. wasn’t ②. talking
【解析】
【详解】句意:约翰昨天晚上八点正在和他的朋友通电话。原句是过去进行时,其结构是“was/were+现在分词”。变否定句时,在was/were后直接加not,可缩写为 wasn’t/weren’t。此句主语是John,be动词用的was,所以否定句是在was后加not缩写成wasn’t,talking 保持不变。故填wasn’t;talking。
51. He didn’t have dinner last night because he felt sick. (对划线部分提问)
________ ________ he have dinner last night?
【答案】 ①. Why ②. didn’t
【解析】
【详解】句意:他昨晚没吃晚饭因为他感觉不舒服。划线部分“because he felt sick”表示原因,对原因提问要用疑问词why。原句是一般过去时,且有助动词didn’t,变疑问句时将didn’t置于疑问词之后即可。故填Why;didn’t。
52. Would you mind answering the phone for me? (改为同义句)
Would you mind ________ ________ the phone for me?
【答案】 ①. picking ②. up
【解析】
【详解】句意:你介意帮我接电话吗?answer the phone=pick up the phone“接电话”,mind doing sth“介意做某事”,空处用动名词作宾语故填picking;up。
53. “钉钉” 是一款如此有用的软件以至于很多人都在使用它。 (翻译句子)
Ding Talk is ________ useful ________ many people are using it.
【答案】 ①. so ②. that
【解析】
【详解】对比所给中英文可知,设空处为“如此……以至于”;useful“有用的”,为形容词,所以此处用so…that“如此……以至于”,引导结果状语从句。故填so;that。
54. 我们会尽最大努力确保你在这里的安全。
We will do our best to ________ ________ that you are safe here.
【答案】 ①. make ②. sure
【解析】
【详解】do one’s best to do sth表示“尽某人最大的努力做某事”,因此第一空应填入动词原形。“确保”是动词短语make sure,后接that引导的宾语从句。故填make;sure。
IX. 短文填词。(每小题2分,共16分)
根据下面短文内容,在短文的空格处填上一个恰当的词,使短文完整通顺。
“I don’t like my parents. They always tell me I should do this, and should not do that. It sometimes makes me angry,” said Li Hua, a student in Chongqing. Do you have the ____55____ problem? Why does it seem that some parents are not so friendly in their children’s eyes?

【答案】55. same
56. parent 57. for
58. eat 59. happily
60. when 61. theirs
62. needing
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要探讨了孩子眼中父母不太友好的原因,并针对如何改善亲子关系提出了一些建议。
【55题详解】
句意:你有同样的问题吗?根据“‘I don’t like my parents... It sometimes makes me angry,’ said Li Hua... Do you have the... problem?”可知,这里是询问读者是否和李华有相同的困扰。“same”意为“相同的”,常与定冠词“the”连用,the same problem表示“同样的问题”。故填same。
【56题详解】
句意:其中一个重要的原因是,当一个人成为父母时,他/她就喜欢操心孩子的一切。根据“One of the biggest things is when someone becomes a..., he/she likes worrying about everything about his/her children.”可知,结合后文提到对孩子各种事情的操心,这里说的是成为父母之后的情况。“parent”意为“父亲(或母亲)”,前面有不定冠词“a”,所以用单数形式。故填parent。
【57题详解】
句意:从你出生起,他们为你做了很多事情,尽管有些事情会让你生气。根据“From the time you were born, they do a lot of things... you”可知,父母做事情的对象是孩子,“for”有“为了”的意思,表示目的或对象,这里表示父母为孩子做事。故填for。
【58题详解】
句意:他们担心你选择的朋友、你吃的食物、你的睡眠时间、你在学校的学习等等。根据“They worry about the friends you choose, the food you...”可知,这里说的是父母担心孩子吃的食物,“eat”意为“吃”,句子描述一般情况,用一般现在时,主语“you”是第二人称,动词用原形。故填eat。
【59题详解】
句意:他们希望你健康快乐地成长。根据“They want you to grow up healthily and...”可知,这里需要一个副词与“healthily”并列,修饰“grow up”,描述成长的状态。结合语境,父母希望孩子快乐成长,“happily”意为“快乐地”,符合语境。故填happily。
【60题详解】
句意:如果你待在别的地方,给他们打电话。根据“Call them... you stay somewhere else.”可知,这里需要一个连词,表示时间关系,“when”意为“当……时候”,引导时间状语从句,说明打电话的时机是当自己待在别处的时候。故填when。
【61题详解】
句意:和他们谈论你的想法,然后他们可能会和你谈论他们的(想法)。根据“Talk about your ideas with them and then they may talk about... with you.”可知,这里说的是父母可能会和孩子谈论他们自己的想法,为了避免重复,用名词性物主代词“theirs”,相当于“their ideas”。故填theirs。
【62题详解】
句意:因为他们仍在学习如何为人父母,并且需要你的帮助。根据“Because they are still practicing being parents and... your help.”可知,“and”连接两个并列的成分,前面说在学习为人父母,结合语境,这里表示需要孩子的帮助,“need”意为“需要”,句子时态是现在进行时,其结构为“be动词+动词的现在分词”,“need”的现在分词是“needing”。故填needing。

①Chinese traditional painting and dance are two important parts of the art world. But what about when they meet each other?
②Two years ago, a dance program named Poetic Dance: The Journey of a Legendary Landscape Painting (《只此青绿》) was staged on CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala and became a hit.
③According to CCTV, this dance program was inspired (激发) by the 900-year-old Chinese painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》). Created by Song Dynasty painter Wang Xi meng at about 18, the painting is amazing in its big size, rich colors and the expressive details, reported CCTV. It shows a Chinese blue-green picture of land, “mountains and groupings of rise and fall between cloudless sky and rippling (波浪起伏) water”.
④The dancers were thought as mountains in the performance. They each had a different hairstyle, which was similar to a mountain rock. The clothes they wore were green and blue, which is also a poetic interpretation (演绎) of the mountains and rivers. When the dancer swung, audiences seemed to be looking at the moving mountains and rivers “It brings me an enjoyable experience of beauty. It is not only a drama but also an ‘exhibition’ which shows excellent works of art to the public. Huge mountains and rivers are coming to life!” Internet user Mo Weisha wrote in a review. “More than a thousand years later, green mountains and rivers still excite people as they did long ago.” Some people even decided to watch the dance again when it was staged in the theaters later.
⑤In fact, in recent years, more and more shows pay attention to Chinese traditional culture and have received warm welcome as the result of people’s great love for traditional culture.
⑥ “The younger generations have grown up with a more open mind. They hug Chinese culture and are proud of it.” Yao Wei, director of Henan TV Station’s Innovation Center, told China Daily.
28. The Journey of a Legendary Landscape Painting (《只此青绿》) was staged on _________.
A. Henan TV’s Spring Festival Gala B. CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala

A. It has a history of over a thousand years. B. It was created by painter Zhang Zeduan.
C. It is of small size but has a lot of details. D. It shows us the natural beauty of China.

①In our everyday life, we often have such an experience: when we want to eat but we are busy, we fight against the hunger. But when we have been hungry for a long time, we find that we aren’t hungry any longer.
②Why are people hungry? From the scientific study, for energy (能量), the food we eat is changed into glucose (葡萄糖) and we feel hungry because we don’t have enough sugar. Our bodies can feel how much glucose there is in the blood. When there is no enough glucose, a person will feel hungry. Hunger is not caused by having less food in the stomach, but the changes in glucose levels (水平). So when we are hungry, we don’t have to have meals.
③When we are hungry for a long time, why won’t we continue feeling hungry? In fact, the spare (空余的) glucose can be stored (被储存). When we can’t eat for reasons, ▲ . When it arrives at some situation, our bodies will give us a message: glucose is enough. So we don’t feel hungry anymore.
④Is it OK not to eat when you’ve been hungry for a long time? Of course not! This is bad for one’s body. When someone runs out of the stored energy the body will break down fat (分解脂肪) to provide itself with energy. During the process, the person will feel dizzy (眩晕). If worse, the protein (蛋白质) also starts to break down, and we will be in danger.
⑤For busy people, you’d better always take some candies with you. If you have been hungry for too long, you mustn’t give up eating! Start with a piece of candy.

阅读下文并回答问题。
After 12 hours on the operating table (手术台) and 4 hours of sleeping in bed, I woke up in the hospital with my leg bandaged. For the next three months, I couldn’t walk; I couldn’t drive; I couldn’t even take a shower on my own.
I turned to my husband, Adam, and asked. “How are we going to deal with all the problems in front of us? Who would pick up our kids each school day? Who would feed and walk the dogs? Who would prepare dinner?”
“We’ll work it out.” Adam said. I just nodded (点头) my head, saying nothing. But nowhere in my heart did I believe him. Not even a little bit.
I shared my accident on the Internet. And something I never expected happened: friends both near and far asked me how they could help. I wrote back, thanking them all but not accepting their kind offers. But when we got back home, a friend helped to take care of our meals for the first month of my recovery (恢复). Parents in our school picked my kids up from school each afternoon. Friends sent books and food.
My children also changed a lot. They no more asked me to send them to school, to prepare their lunch boxes or to make sure their homework was in their bags. They learned to do it by themselves. Each day after school, they ran back home quickly to see if I was fine. My daughter tried many ways like playing light music or funny movies to help me go through the hard time. When I was taking my slow, painful PT exercises (术后康复训练), my son got a fork or a bottle of water for me whenever he was asked, never complaining. They all seemed to be better for my accident.
