However, many ESL (English as a Second Language) learners may find it quite challenging to ask for directions in English. Don’t worry. This passage will help. The first and most important step is to start the conversation politely. When you ask for directions, the way you make your request can make a difference to the reply you receive. Using polite expressions shows respect for the person you’re asking. This makes him/her more likely to help you. If possible, put on a smile. Once you’ve started the conversation, you’d better ask for directions by using simple sentences. Here are some English expressions for you to ask for directions. Combining (结合) them with a friendly attitude will increase your chances of receiving helpful directions.  Could you please tell me the way to the book shop?  Excuse me. Can you give me directions to this house?  What’s the best way to reach Donald Street? When receiving directions, it’s important to make sure that you’ve understood them correctly to avoid getting lost or taking a longer path. You can repeat what the person has said. Ask him to repeat certain details or ask for further explanation. This not only shows that you’ve been listening carefully but also provides a chance to correct any misunderstandings. Here are some expressions to help you, too.  Let me make sure I understood correctly; I should turn left, is that right?  Did you say I need to turn left at the central park?  Would it be possible for you to write down the directions for me? 31. What does the author think of being polite? A. Easy. B. Possible. C. Common. D. Necessary. 32. What can you do to increase your chances of getting useful information? ①Talk loudly. ② Ask politely ③ Use simple sentences. ④ Listen as quietly as possible. A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①④ D. ③④ 33. Why does the author advise that we repeat what we’ve heard? A. To make sure we don’t get it wrong. B. To correct the mistakes of others. C. To let others serve us better. D. To ask for more details. 34. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Ways to avoid getting lost. B. Reasons for improving your English. C. Ways to ask for directions in English. D. Steps for proper use of polite expressions. 35. Where is the passage probably from? A. A university introduction. B. A sports report. C. A safety handbook. D. An educational magazine. 【答案】31. D 32.

Every moment in their lives would be like seeing the world for the first time. But don’t feel sorry for them. A recent study has found that fish have much better memories than we thought. In fact, some kinds of fish can even remember events from as long as 12 days ago. BBC reported. In the study, researchers from MacEwan University in Canada trained a kind of fish called African cichlids to go to a certain area of their tank (水箱) to get food. They then waited for 12 days before putting them back in the tank again. This showed that they could remember their past experiences. Researchers also found that after such a long break the fish still went to the same place where they first got food. In fact, scientists had been thinking for a long time that African cichlids might have a good memory. An earlier study showed that they behaved aggressively in front of certain fish, perhaps because they remembered their past fights. But until the latest findings, there was no clear evidence (证据). Just as a good memory can make our lives easier, it also plays an important part when a fish is trying to survive (幸存) in the wild. “If fish are able to remember that there is safe food in a certain area, they will be able to go back to that area without putting their lives in danger,” the leading researcher Trevor Hamilton told Lite Science. For a long time, fish were placed far below chimpanzees (黑猩猩), dolphins and mice on the list of smart animals. But this study has given scientists a new understanding of their intelligence (智商). So next time you are watching your pet fish from outside the tank, perhaps you should feel closer to them—they may remember who you are. 36. How much do we know about the fish from the study? ①Fish were put in a tank for scientists to study. ② It took scientists twelve days to do the research. ③ Fish can remember where they first got food after some time. ④ Fish would fight for food with others. ⑤ Fish can remember things for longer than seven seconds. ⑥ Fish can sleep with their eyes open. A. ②③④ B. ①③⑤ C. ②⑤⑥ D. ①④⑥ 37. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refers to________. A. living places B. the environment C. a good memory D. food 38. What does the underlined word “aggressively” in Paragraph 4 probably mean in Chinese?________ A. 得体地 B. 夸张地 C. 有侵略性地 D. 奇怪地 39. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Most of the fish can remember things as long as 12 days. B. Fish have been placed fourth on the list of smart animals. C. Researchers have trained fish how to survive in the wild. D. The result from the study is different from what people used to think about fish. 40. Which part of the newspaper is the article taken from? A. Science. B. Travel. C. Culture. D. Business. 【答案】36. B 37. C 38. C 39. D 40. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了科学家调查鱼的记忆的情况。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据“A recent study has found that fish have much better memories than we thought.”；“In the study, researchers from MacEwan University in Canada trained a kind of fish called African cichlids to go to a certain area of their tank (水箱) to get food.”；“Researchers also found that after such a long break the fish still went to the same place where they first got food.”可知，科学家研究鱼缸里的鱼，鱼能记住它们首次觅食的地方以及鱼的记忆力比我们认为的还要好。①③⑤符合题意。故选B。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Just as a good memory can make our lives easier, it also plays an important part when a fish is trying to survive (幸存) in the wild.”可知，正如良好的记忆力可以让我们的生活更轻松一样，当鱼试图在野外生存时，它也起着重要的作用。所以这里的“it”指代的是上文的“好的记忆力”。故选C。 【38题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“An earlier study showed that they behaved aggressively in front of certain fish, perhaps because they remembered their past fights.”可知，鱼儿们记住之前的战斗，因此会在别的鱼面前表现出攻击性。根据上下文以及选项可知，此处aggressively意为“攻击性的，有侵略性地”。故选C。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据“But this study has given scientists a new understanding of their intelligence (智商).”可知，这个研究改变了人们对鱼的传统认识，D选项表述正确。故选D。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文以及根据“A recent study has found that fish have much better memories than we thought. In fact, some kinds of fish can even remember events from as long as 12 days ago. BBC reported.”可知，本文主要讲述了科学家对鱼类进行实验，检验鱼的记忆力，因此这篇文章应该属于科技类文章。故选A。 五、补全对话（每小题1分，共5分） A: ____41____ B: Good afternoon. ____42____ young lady? A: I feel very weak. I can’t do any work, doctor.

She visited here and there. One day, however, she got hurt. “Well, maybe it is time to find my place by the sea,” said Alice. And it was, and she did. “But there is still one more thing I have to do,” she said. “I have to do something to make the world more beautiful.” But what? The next spring Alice still couldn’t walk. She had to stay in bed most of the time. Through her bedroom front window she could see the beautiful lupine (扁豆) flowers in her garden. Then another spring came. Alice could take walks again. One day she came to a hill. On the other side of the hill were lots of lupine flowers! “It was the wind,” she said. “It brought the seeds (种子) from my garden!” Then Alice had a wonderful idea! It was to buy lots of lupine seeds. All summer, wherever she went, Alice would bring seeds there. The next spring there were lupine flowers everywhere. Alice did the most difficult thing of all. 26.

B When you are in a new place or trying to find your way around, it’s important and necessary to know how to ask for directions. However, many ESL (English as a Second Language) learners may find it quite challenging to ask for directions in English. Don’t worry. This passage will help. The first and most important step is to start the conversation politely. When you ask for directions, the way you make your request can make a difference to the reply you receive. Using polite expressions shows respect for the person you’re asking. This makes him/her more likely to help you. If possible, put on a smile. Once you’ve started the conversation, you’d better ask for directions by using simple sentences. Here are some English expressions for you to ask for directions. Combining (结合) them with a friendly attitude will increase your chances of receiving helpful directions.  Could you please tell me the way to the book shop?  Excuse me. Can you give me directions to this house?  What’s the best way to reach Donald Street? When receiving directions, it’s important to make sure that you’ve understood them correctly to avoid getting lost or taking a longer path. You can repeat what the person has said. Ask him to repeat certain details or ask for further explanation. This not only shows that you’ve been listening carefully but also provides a chance to correct any misunderstandings. Here are some expressions to help you, too.  Let me make sure I understood correctly; I should turn left, is that right?  Did you say I need to turn left at the central park?  Would it be possible for you to write down the directions for me? 31. What does the author think of being polite? A. Easy. B. Possible. C. Common. D. Necessary. 32. What can you do to increase your chances of getting useful information? ①Talk loudly. ② Ask politely ③ Use simple sentences. ④ Listen as quietly as possible. A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①④ D. ③④ 33. Why does the author advise that we repeat what we’ve heard? A. To make sure we don’t get it wrong. B. To correct the mistakes of others. C. To let others serve us better. D. To ask for more details. 34. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Ways to avoid getting lost. B. Reasons for improving your English. C. Ways to ask for directions in English. D. Steps for proper use of polite expressions. 35. Where is the passage probably from? A. A university introduction. B. A sports report. C. A safety handbook. D. An educational magazine. C Most people believe that fish can’t remember anything for longer than seven seconds. Every moment in their lives would be like seeing the world for the first time. But don’t feel sorry for them. A recent study has found that fish have much better memories than we thought. In fact, some kinds of fish can even remember events from as long as 12 days ago. BBC reported. In the study, researchers from MacEwan University in Canada trained a kind of fish called African cichlids to go to a certain area of their tank (水箱) to get food. They then waited for 12 days before putting them back in the tank again. This showed that they could remember their past experiences. Researchers also found that after such a long break the fish still went to the same place where they first got food. In fact, scientists had been thinking for a long time that African cichlids might have a good memory. An earlier study showed that they behaved aggressively in front of certain fish, perhaps because they remembered their past fights. But until the latest findings, there was no clear evidence (证据). Just as a good memory can make our lives easier, it also plays an important part when a fish is trying to survive (幸存) in the wild. “If fish are able to remember that there is safe food in a certain area, they will be able to go back to that area without putting their lives in danger,” the leading researcher Trevor Hamilton told Lite Science. For a long time, fish were placed far below chimpanzees (黑猩猩), dolphins and mice on the list of smart animals. But this study has given scientists a new understanding of their intelligence (智商). So next time you are watching your pet fish from outside the tank, perhaps you should feel closer to them—they may remember who you are. 36. How much do we know about the fish from the study? ①Fish were put in a tank for scientists to study. ② It took scientists twelve days to do the research. ③ Fish can remember where they first got food after some time. ④ Fish would fight for food with others. ⑤ Fish can remember things for longer than seven seconds. ⑥ Fish can sleep with their eyes open. A. ②③④ B. ①③⑤ C. ②⑤⑥ D. ①④⑥ 37. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refers to________. A. living places B. the environment C. a good memory D. food 38. What does the underlined word “aggressively” in Paragraph 4 probably mean in Chinese?________ A. 得体地 B. 夸张地 C. 有侵略性地 D. 奇怪地 39. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Most of the fish can remember things as long as 12 days. B. Fish have been placed fourth on the list of smart animals. C. Researchers have trained fish how to survive in the wild. D. The result from the study is different from what people used to think about fish. 40. Which part of the newspaper is the article taken from? A. Science. B. Travel. C. Culture. D. Business. 五、补全对话（每小题1分，共5分） A: ____41____ B: Good afternoon. ____42____ young lady? A: I feel very weak. I can’t do any work, doctor. B: ____43____ A: No, I don’t have a headache.
