Today I’ll introduce a famous children’s book to you. It’s The Tale of Peter Rabbit, written by Beatrix Potter. Beatrix was born in 1866. She and her brother kept many small animals as pets—rabbits, mice, frogs and even bats! They both liked to draw their pets, but Beatrix liked drawing animals from her own imagination (想象) most. She also loved enjoying and drawing nature when they visited beautiful places like Scotland and the Lake District. To make some money, Beatrix started drawing cards with animals. She liked writing and illustrating letters too. One day, she wrote a letter to her friend’s son, and told the story of Peter Rabbit with a lot of beautiful pictures. She decided to make the story into a book. The Tale of Peter Rabbit was published in 1902—and it was a great success! She wrote, illustrated and published many more books. She also created dolls, painting books, games and other things according to her characters. Three years after The Tale of Peter Rabbit was published, Beatrix bought a farm in the Lake District. She learned about farming and bought more farms and land to help protect the landscape (自然景色). She enjoyed country life very much, and was very active in protecting the environment. When Beatrix died, she left almost all her farms and land to the National Trust, an organization which protects historic places and landscapes.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了著名的儿童读物《彼得兔的故事》的作者Beatrix Potter个人经历。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段整段可知，第二段主要介绍了Beatrix和她的哥哥养了许多小动物作为宠物，并且他们都喜欢画宠物，即介绍了Beatrix的爱好。故选A。 【46题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“She liked writing and illustrating letters too. One day, she wrote a letter to her friend’s son, and told the story of Peter Rabbit with a lot of beautiful pictures.”可知，有一天，Beatrix给朋友的儿子写了一封信，并用许多美丽的图画讲述了彼得兔的故事，即她喜欢写信并且在上面画插图，可推测illustrating表示“加插图于”，B选项“把一些图片放进去。”与其意思相符。故选B。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The Tale of Peter Rabbit was published in 1902—and it was a great success!”可知，《彼得兔的故事》出版于1902年，获得了巨大的成功。故选C。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Three years after The Tale of Peter Rabbit was published, Beatrix bought a farm in the Lake District. She learned about farming and bought more farms and land to help protect the landscape. She enjoyed country life very much, and was very active in protecting the environment.”可知，《彼得兔的故事》出版三年后，Beatrix在英格兰湖区买了一个农场，她学习了农业，并购买了更多的农场和土地来帮助保护风景，她非常喜欢乡村生活，并且非常积极地保护环境，可推测Beatrix是环保爱好者。故选A。 E You may charge(充电) your phone every day, but do you clean your phone as much? Whatever your hands touch, your phones touch. It has been discovered that some phones have 18 times more bacteria and viruses (细菌病毒) than any surface in a public restroom. So it won’t surprise you that a 2011 University of London study found that one in six of our phones have bacteria and viruses on them. The research on bacteria and viruses led to the invention of PhoneSoap. It is not actually liquid (液体). It is a phone charger that uses the electromagnetic radiation (辐射) to kill 99.9 percent of bacteria and viruses, cleaning your phone while it charges. “Certain types of bacteria and viruses are really on our phones,” says Wes Barnes, the PhoneSoap founder. “It would be the fastest, most powerful way to kill them .” PhoneSoap looks like a little metal suitcase. Your phone rests in to charge and get cleaned at the same time. Instead of plugging your phone into the wall, you’d plug it into the PhoneSoap charger box. The process only takes a few minutes but, Barnes says, “The idea is that you can leave it in there overnight if you want to keep charging. and it cleans the phone fully.” The founder found the right companies and then started shipping the product in late November. By last week’s International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, PhoneSoap was very popular with people. The founder has left his present job and is selling PhoneSoap without a stop. “We sell out PhoneSoap every day, and we will try to provide enough PhoneSoap” Barnes says. “It’s been a great challenge.” 49. We can learn from the first paragraph that ___________. A. phones can be very dirty B. phones are where bacteria are born C. most phones are attacked by bacteria D. phones store more bacteria in a restroom 50. According to the passage, PhoneSoap ___________. A. takes a whole night to kill bacteria B. deals with bacteria with radiation C is a kind of liquid D. has to be plugged into the wall to work 51. From the last paragraph, we can infer that ___________. A. PhoneSoap is in great need now B. PhoneSoap is really hard to use C. they won’t produce enough PhoneSoap D. they’ll make improvements to PhoneSoap 52. What’s the passage mainly about? A. Methods of cleaning phones. B. Tips on charging phones quickly. C. Soap killing harmful bacteria on phones. D. A phone charger keeping your phone clean. 【答案】49. A 50. B 51. A 52. D 【解析】 【分析】文章介绍的是手机上也会有很多的病毒和细菌，现在有一款新型的电话肥皂，能一边给手机清洁皂一边还能用辐射杀死手机上的细菌和病毒，现在的销售很火爆。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据文中It has been discovered that some phones have 18 times more bacteria and viruses (细菌病毒) than any surface in a public restroom. 据发现，有些手机的细菌和病毒数量是公共卫生间的18倍。可知手机上有很多的病毒和细菌，所以手机可能会很脏，故选A。 【50题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中It is a phone charger that uses the electromagnetic radiation (辐射) to kill 99.9 percent of bacteria and viruses, cleaning your phone while it charges. 它是一款手机充电器，利用电磁辐射（辐射）杀死99.9%的细菌和病毒，在充电的同时清洗手机。可知手机清洁皂通过辐射边给手机充电边杀菌，故选B。 【51题详解】 推理判断题。根据文中By last week’s International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, PhoneSoap was very popular with people. The founder has left his present job and is selling PhoneSoap without a stop. “We sell out PhoneSoap every day, and we will try to provide enough PhoneSoap” 上周在拉斯维加斯举行的国际消费电子展上，PhoneSoap很受人们欢迎。这位创始人已经辞去了现在的工作，正在不停地销售PhoneSoap。巴恩斯说：“我们每天都会出售手机清洁皂，我们会尽力提供足够的手机清洁皂。”可知手机清洁皂的需求量很大，故选A。 【52题详解】 主旨大意题。根据整个文章的理解可知，文章介绍的是一款边充电边能清洁手机的手机充电器，故选D。 F Flora and her dad are moving to a new house soon. Next week, workers will turn the yard of the old house into a car park. The yard is full of beautiful flowers grown by Flora and Dad. “My poor flowers,” Flora complains in a low voice, looking at the bright purple blooms (花朵) sadly. She sits outside, selling things she doesn’t want to take to the new house. Beside her hangs a sign that says “Yard Sale”. Several of her neighbours come to have a look. Dad comes out, holding some snacks in his hands. “Here’s a snack for everyone,” he says. Flora’s dad loves sharing things. Occasionally (偶然地), Flora digs her heels (鞋后跟) deep into the grass. Then she feels the soft earth move under her heels, and she knows what she can do. She whispers her plan to Dad. He nods with a smile. Flora takes out some flowerpots (花盆) happily and finds a tool to dig with. Carefully she digs up the flowers with some earth and puts them into the pots. She lines up the pots near her sign. Now she is ready to be a generous person, just like her dad. “How much is a pot?” asks Ana from next door. “Zero cents!” she smiles and says, “Pick any pot you like!” 53.

How many friends should a person have — one or many?” “It is very simple,” the teacher answered. “Get me that red apple from the highest branch (树枝) of the tree.” Tom looked up and said, “It’s too high! I can’t reach it.” “Ask a friend. Maybe he can help,” the teacher suggested. Tom called another student and stood on his shoulders (肩膀) to reach the branch. “I still can’t reach it, sir,” said Tom sadly after the first try. “Don’t you have more friends?” the teacher smiled. Tom asked more friends to come over. They stood on each other’s shoulders, trying to make a human pyramid (金字塔). But the apple was so high that they couldn’t go higher and the pyramid fell. Tom still couldn’t reach the apple. Then one of the friends went home, brought a ladder (梯子) and Tom finally picked the apple. After getting the apple, the teacher asked, “So, do you understand how many friends a person needs?” “Yes, I do,” Tom said. “Many, so together we can work out any problem.” “Sounds good,” the teacher said. “You need as many friends as you can.

Today I’ll introduce a famous children’s book to you. It’s The Tale of Peter Rabbit, written by Beatrix Potter. Beatrix was born in 1866. She and her brother kept many small animals as pets—rabbits, mice, frogs and even bats! They both liked to draw their pets, but Beatrix liked drawing animals from her own imagination (想象) most. She also loved enjoying and drawing nature when they visited beautiful places like Scotland and the Lake District. To make some money, Beatrix started drawing cards with animals. She liked writing and illustrating letters too. One day, she wrote a letter to her friend’s son, and told the story of Peter Rabbit with a lot of beautiful pictures. She decided to make the story into a book. The Tale of Peter Rabbit was published in 1902—and it was a great success! She wrote, illustrated and published many more books. She also created dolls, painting books, games and other things according to her characters. Three years after The Tale of Peter Rabbit was published, Beatrix bought a farm in the Lake District. She learned about farming and bought more farms and land to help protect the landscape (自然景色). She enjoyed country life very much, and was very active in protecting the environment. When Beatrix died, she left almost all her farms and land to the National Trust, an organization which protects historic places and landscapes. You can even visit Hill Top Farm today, which is exactly like it was when Beatrix lived there! So if you haven’t read The Tale of Peter Rabbit, or other Beatrix Potter’s books, why not visit your local library or bookshop today! 45. Paragraph 2 mainly tells us about Beatrix’s ________. A. hobbies B. growth C. family D. birth 46. What does the underlined word “illustrating” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Receiving some answers from. B. Putting some pictures into. C.

Whatever your hands touch, your phones touch. It has been discovered that some phones have 18 times more bacteria and viruses (细菌病毒) than any surface in a public restroom. So it won’t surprise you that a 2011 University of London study found that one in six of our phones have bacteria and viruses on them. The research on bacteria and viruses led to the invention of PhoneSoap. It is not actually liquid (液体). It is a phone charger that uses the electromagnetic radiation (辐射) to kill 99.9 percent of bacteria and viruses, cleaning your phone while it charges. “Certain types of bacteria and viruses are really on our phones,” says Wes Barnes, the PhoneSoap founder. “It would be the fastest, most powerful way to kill them .” PhoneSoap looks like a little metal suitcase. Your phone rests in to charge and get cleaned at the same time. Instead of plugging your phone into the wall, you’d plug it into the PhoneSoap charger box. The process only takes a few minutes but, Barnes says, “The idea is that you can leave it in there overnight if you want to keep charging. and it cleans the phone fully.” The founder found the right companies and then started shipping the product in late November. By last week’s International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, PhoneSoap was very popular with people. The founder has left his present job and is selling PhoneSoap without a stop. “We sell out PhoneSoap every day, and we will try to provide enough PhoneSoap” Barnes says. “It’s been a great challenge.” 49.

Dad comes out, holding some snacks in his hands. “Here’s a snack for everyone,” he says. Flora’s dad loves sharing things. Occasionally (偶然地), Flora digs her heels (鞋后跟) deep into the grass.
