What do you do when you feel unhappy? Do you listen to music? Do you talk to a friend?
Maybe next time you feel sad, you should try going outside if it is sunny. Doctors know that how much sunlight (阳光) we get can change how we feel. In the north, in Alaska of Finland, for example, the days are very short in winter. People living in these places say that they often feel unhappy in winter. In the south, where there are more daylight hours, fewer people say they are unhappy in winter. The reason is that Sunlight changes the chemicals (化学物) in our bodies, and these chemicals can change the way we feel. A few hours of strong sunlight can help your body make the chemicals that make us feel happy.
Another way to feel happier is to get some exercise. Just like sunlight, regular (定期的) exercise helps our bodies make chemicals, which make us feel happier. What’s more, exercise helps people sleep better. Exercise also helps you lower stress. When you are angry or upset about something, exercise is a good way to get those bad feelings out of you and make you feel happy.
4. Why do people in the north feel unhappy more often than people in the south?
A. Because they can’t go outside.
B. Because they get less sunlight.
C. Because the weather is too cold.
5. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A. It is better to live in the south.
B. Southern people feel much happier.
C. More sunlight can make us happier.
6. ________ will probably Not make you feel happier according to the passage.
A. Getting sunlight B. Exercising more C. Getting enough sleep
7. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Why Is Sunlight Good for You?
B. How Can Exercise Help You?
C. Ways to Feel Happy.
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要是介绍了几种方法可以让自己变得更高兴些,以及这些方法起作用的原因。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Doctors know that how much sunlight (阳光) we get can change how we feel.”与“In the north, in Alaska of Finland, for example, the days are very short in winter. People living in these places say that they often feel unhappy in winter.....The reason is that Sunlight changes the chemicals (化学物) in our bodies, and these chemicals can change the way we feel. A few hours of strong sunlight can help your body make the chemicals that make us feel happy.”可知,在南方,白天时间更长,很少有人说他们冬天不开心。原因是这些人每天得到更多的阳光,使人感到快乐,而北方则相反,因此可以推断在北方人们不开心是因为得到的阳光少,故选B。
【5题详解】
段落大意题。根据第二段“Doctors know that how much sunlight we get can change how we feel....A few hours of strong sunlight can help your body make the chemicals that make us feel happy.”可知,医生们知道我们得到多少阳光可以改变我们的感觉,以及后面的描述,本段介绍了“阳光能改变人的感受”,阳光越多,人就越快乐。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据“A few hours of strong sunlight can help your body make the chemicals that make us feel happy.”和“Another way to feel happier is to get some exercise.”可知,更多的阳光和锻炼可以让我们开心,没有提到充足的睡眠。故选C。
【7题详解】
最佳标题题。根据“What do you do when you feel unhappy? Do you listen to music? Do you talk to a friend?”及全文可知,本文通篇主要是介绍了不高兴时该做些什么让自己变得高兴,C项“感到快乐的方法”适合做标题。故选C。

Years ago a farmer owned a land along the seacoast (海岸) . He often asked people to work on his farm, but most people didn’t want to work on farms along the seacoast. They feared (害怕) the terrible storms across from the Atlantic Ocean.

The little man lay in bed and said quietly, “No, sir. I told you, I can sleep when the wind blows.” Annoyed (恼怒的) at the answer, the farmer decided to let him go away. He ran out to prepare for the storm. To his surprise, he found that all of the things had been covered with tarpaulins (防水油布) . The cows were in their houses, and the chickens were in their houses, too. Everything was ready for the wind. Nothing could be blown away.
The farmer then understood what the farmhand had meant, so he returned to his bed to sleep again while the wind blew.

【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍Shankar心地善良,帮助了鹿,好人有好报,在他困难时,鹿帮助了他。
【26题详解】
句意:因为他爸爸的死,他的妈妈感到很悲伤。横线前是名词所有格,所以横线上是名词,所以将die变为death。故填death。
【27题详解】
句意:不久她的疾病变得更严重。become是系动词,所以横线上是形容词,由于much修饰比较级,所以将serious变为more serious。故填more serious。
【28题详解】
句意:但是Shankar自己都没有任何东西。根据前文“It needed water and food”小鹿需要水和食物,后文说他没有,可知空后是逗号,用However表示转折。故填However。
【29题详解】
句意:后来,他看见一个男子正在造木屋。“see sb. doing”看见某人正在做某事,所以将make变为making。故填making。
【30题详解】
句意:Shankar是如此善良以至于他给男子木头。根据“Shankar was so kind...he gave his wood to the man.”可知,考查短语“so...that”如此……以至于。故填that。
【31题详解】
句意:上个月,当Shankar正在砍木头时,他从山上掉下来。根据“Last month”可知,时态为一般过去时,动词填过去式。故填fell。
【32题详解】
句意:上个月,当Shankar正在砍木头时,他从山上掉下来。根据“while”可知,横线上是进行时,由于描述过去的时间,所以是过去进行时。由于主语是he,故填was cutting。
【33题详解】
句意:幸运的是,他从前帮助过的鹿看见他。分析句子可知,横线上是副词修饰整个句子,所以将lucky变为luckily。故填Luckily。
【34题详解】
句意:它把Shankar带回家。横线上代指小鹿,所以是it。故填It。
【35题详解】
句意:记得去帮助他人。考查短语“remember to do”记得去做某事,所以是to help。故填to help。
第四部分 综合技能(共两节,满分25分)
第一节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,按要求完成后面各个小题。
A teenage boy left home because he couldn’t stand his parents’ family rules.1.He wanted to be famous, but he had a poor education. He couldn’t find a job and had to beg (乞讨) for food on the street.
Years later, his mother died.2.虽然他的父亲年纪大了,但他仍然在寻找儿子。Wherever he went, he put up a big photo of himself on the wall. On the lower part of the photo, he wrote, “I still love you, my dearest son. Please come back home!”
One day, the son saw one of the photos on the wall. “Is that my father?” He moved closer and read the words, “I still love you…” Tears (眼泪) ran down his face. He decided to go back and see his dad.
He got home and knocked (敲) on the door. Nobody answered, although the door was unlocked (没锁). He ran into his father’s bedroom. His father was sleeping. The boy woke his father up. “It’s me! Your son is back home!” The father and the son held each other with tears in their eyes. They finally met 15 years later. The son asked, “Why is the door unlocked? A thief (小偷) could get in.” The father answered in a soft voice (声音), “The door has never been locked since you left.”
36. 将画线部分句子翻译成中文。

38. What did the boy’s father do wherever he went?
______________________________________
39. How many years later did the father and the son meet?

40. Was the door locked after the boy left?

【答案】36. 他想出名,但是他没有(受过)好的教育。
37. Although his father was old, he still tried to look for his son.
38. He put a big photo of himself on the wall.
39. 15 years.
40. No.
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了一个少年因忍受不了家规而离家出走。从此以后,他的家人一直在寻找他。十五年后,这个少年找到了家,发现家里没有上锁,就问父亲原因,父亲说从他走后就一直没有锁,一直在等他回来。
【36题详解】
句中but连接两个并列句,表转折关系。前半句“He wanted to be famous”表示“他想要出名”,后半句“he had a poor education”表示“他受教育程度低”。故填:他想出名,但是他没有(受过)好的教育。
【37题详解】
句中“虽然……但……”提示使用让步状语从句结构,常见引导词有 although或though。“他的父亲年纪大了”可表达为his father is old,“他仍然在寻找儿子”可表达为he is still looking for his son 。“仍然”用still表示,“寻找”是固定短语 look for ,因表示现阶段正在进行的动作,所以用现在进行时“be + 动词现在分词”结构,主语he是第三人称单数,be动词用is,look的现在分词是looking。故填Although his father is old, he is still looking for his son.
【38题详解】
根据“Wherever he went, he put up a big photo of himself on the wall.”可知,无论他走到哪里,他都在墙上张贴一张他自己的大照片。故填He put a big photo of himself on the wall.
【39题详解】
根据“They finally met 15 years later.”可知,15年后父亲和儿子见面了。故填15 years.
【40题详解】
根据“The father answered in a soft voice (声音), ‘The door has never been locked since you left.’”可知,自从男孩离开后门从来没有锁过。故填No.

Nowadays many children don’t like doing chores. Last week, we had a discussion about it. Here are the results.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】例文
Nowadays many children don’t like doing chores. Last week, we had a discussion about it. Here are the results. Some students think children should do chores at home. First, doing chores helps children develop their independence and teaches them to look after themselves. It also helps them to understand the idea of fairness. At last, everyone should take part in keeping the environment clean and tidy.
However, others don’t think children should do chores. They think these days children already have enough stress from school, and doing housework is a waste of time. It’s not necessary to learn it now because they can do it when they grow up. What’s more, it’s parents’ job to provide a clean and comfortable environment.
In my opinion, the earlier kids learn to be independent, the better it is for their future.

What do you do when you feel unhappy? Do you listen to music? Do you talk to a friend?
Maybe next time you feel sad, you should try going outside if it is sunny. Doctors know that how much sunlight (阳光) we get can change how we feel. In the north, in Alaska of Finland, for example, the days are very short in winter. People living in these places say that they often feel unhappy in winter. In the south, where there are more daylight hours, fewer people say they are unhappy in winter. The reason is that Sunlight changes the chemicals (化学物) in our bodies, and these chemicals can change the way we feel. A few hours of strong sunlight can help your body make the chemicals that make us feel happy.
Another way to feel happier is to get some exercise. Just like sunlight, regular (定期的) exercise helps our bodies make chemicals, which make us feel happier. What’s more, exercise helps people sleep better. Exercise also helps you lower stress. When you are angry or upset about something, exercise is a good way to get those bad feelings out of you and make you feel happy.
4. Why do people in the north feel unhappy more often than people in the south?
A. Because they can’t go outside.
B. Because they get less sunlight.
C. Because the weather is too cold.
5. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A. It is better to live in the south.
B. Southern people feel much happier.
C. More sunlight can make us happier.
6. ________ will probably Not make you feel happier according to the passage.
A. Getting sunlight B. Exercising more C. Getting enough sleep
7. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Why Is Sunlight Good for You?
B. How Can Exercise Help You?
C. Ways to Feel Happy.
C
Years ago a farmer owned a land along the seacoast (海岸) . He often asked people to work on his farm, but most people didn’t want to work on farms along the seacoast. They feared (害怕) the terrible storms across from the Atlantic Ocean.
Finally, a short, thin man, about 40, got to the farm. “Are you a good farmhand (农场工人) ?” the farmer asked him. “Well, I can sleep when the wind blows,” answered the little man.
Although surprised at this answer, the farmer still had to employ (雇佣) the man. The little man worked well around the farm, busy from morning to night, and the farmer felt satisfied (满意的) with the man’s work.
Then one night the wind was so strong outside, jumping out of bed, the farmer ran to the farmhand’s sleeping room. He shouted, “Get up! A storm is coming! Get everything ready before the wind blows out everything!”
The little man lay in bed and said quietly, “No, sir. I told you, I can sleep when the wind blows.” Annoyed (恼怒的) at the answer, the farmer decided to let him go away. He ran out to prepare for the storm. To his surprise, he found that all of the things had been covered with tarpaulins (防水油布) . The cows were in their houses, and the chickens were in their houses, too. Everything was ready for the wind. Nothing could be blown away.
The farmer then understood what the farmhand had meant, so he returned to his bed to sleep again while the wind blew.
Can you sleep when the wind blows through your life? The farmhand in the story was able to sleep because he did well in his work and kept the farm safe in the storm.
8. Most people wouldn’t like to work for the farmer because ________ .
A. it was too hard to work on the farm
B. They were afraid of the terrible storms
C. the farm was far away
9. How did the farmer feel about the little man’s work?
A. Surprised. B. Angry. C. Satisfied.
10. What was the little man doing when the wind was blowing heavily?
A. He was sleeping in his room.
B. He was covering with tarpaulins.
C. He was looking after the chicken and the cows.
11. When the farmer ran out to prepare for the storm, he found ________ .
A. many things were blown away
B. the wind stopped blowing
C. everything was ready for the storm
