After the third time I needed stitches (缝合针), a doctor suggested fishing to calm me down. But since I’d nearly drowned (淹死) a few years before, my mother ruled water out of my life. Finally, she settled on reading as the only solution to my condition. For one hour each day, I was forced to sit and read. I cried so hard that I couldn’t see the letters on the page. Then my teacher uncle stepped in with a pile of books. He said all I had to do was read the first twenty pages of a book. If I was still bored after that, I could put it down and pick up another. My first pick was Roald Dahl’s The Enormous Crocodile, and after twenty pages, I fell out of my chair laughing. In the story, a crocodile tries to eat children by pretending to be a seesaw (跷跷板). I followed this up with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Fantastic Mr. Fox. Their quick plots and simple messages were very satisfying to read. Little by little, the books became longer and more challenging. I was in the middle of reading The Lord ofthe Rings when my mother complained that I was reading too much and that I should run around outside like I used to. But by then it was too late—I couldn’t stop reading. I began eagerly reading serious novels like Adventures ofHuckleberry Finn. I will never forget the scene where Huck is shocked that his friend Jim’s blood is red, not black. That moment taught me how stupid it is to judge someone by the color of their skin. To this day, I think of books as a secret friend to whom I can always turn for advice. A good book must do two things: entertain and educate. If a book doesn’t interest you after twenty pages, put it down and try another one. 26．What is the writing purpose of the first paragraph? A．To show that the writer loved fishing as a child. B．To tell a funny story about childhood accidents. C．To describe the writer’s favorite childhood activity. D．To explain why the writer’s mother chose reading for him. 27．The underlined phrase “settle on” in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by “________ ”. A．feed on B．move on C．decide on D．depend on 28．Why does the author mention his teacher uncle in Paragraph 2? A．To explain how hard reading is. B．To show how he was encouraged to read. C．To explain why he disliked reading. D．To show his uncle’s wisdom in reading. 29．According to the author, what makes for a good book? A．It must be fascinating at the beginning. B．It should be easy to understand and short. C．It should have many characters and a long story. D．It must be both enjoyable and provide knowledge. 30．What would be the best title for the passage? A．Twenty Pages to a New Life B．The Secret Friend in the Pages C．Different Interesting Books D．A Mother’s Choice 【答案】26．D 27．C 28．B 29．D 30．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了“我”总是因为太活跃撞来撞去后来又在跳入水库时差点淹死，妈妈把阅读作为治疗“我”的方法，后来“我”逐渐找到了阅读的乐趣。 26．推理判断题。根据“I was a very active child, always running around and crashing into things. After the third time I needed stitches (缝合针), …she settled on reading as the only solution to my condition.”可知，第一段的目的是解释母亲选择阅读的原因。故选D。 27．词义猜测题。根据“But since I’d nearly drowned (淹死) a few years before, my mother ruled water out of my life. Finally, she settled on reading as the only solution to my condition.”可知，母亲决定把阅读作为解决作者病情的唯一方法。因此划线短语的意思是“决定”，与decide on一致。故选C。 28．推理判断题。根据“Then my teacher uncle stepped in with a pile of books. He said all I had to do was read the first twenty pages of a book. If I was still bored after that, I could put it down and pick up another.”可知，第二段提到叔叔提供书籍并建议“读前20页”，这一方法鼓励作者开始阅读，因此提到叔叔是为了展示他如何被鼓励阅读。故选B。 29．细节理解题。根据“A good book must do two things: entertain and educate.”可知，好书必须“既有趣又有教育意义”。故选D。 30．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，“读前20页”的建议成为作者爱上阅读的转折点，从而改变生活。B选项“向新生活的二十页”符合文章最佳标题。故选A。 B Yesterday was July 15, Peter’s thirteenth birthday. Peter was really excited when he got a magic box on his birthday. He’d always dreamed of being a great magician. He decided to get his start at the school talent show. However, when he opened the box, he was a little sad. There were many plastic pieces and lots of instructions. Peter didn’t know where to start, and he closed it back up.

This winter, you can see them in almost every fruit shop. Most of these dark red, juicy fruits come from Chile by ship. The trip takes about 30 days. Have you ever wondered how they stay fresh for so long? The secret is a technology called Controlled Atmosphere (CA). Fruits and vegetables still “breathe” after they are picked. In a normal place, they react with the air, which makes them go bad faster. Microorganisms (微生物) in the air also make them spoil (变质) more quickly. But CA technology creates a safer place for fruits and vegetables. It reduces the oxygen (O2) level in the storage (存储) area. This slows down the fruits’ activities. At the same time, it adds more carbon dioxide (CO2), and sometimes a little nitrogen (N2). The temperature and humidity (湿度) are also changed to “put the fruits to sleep”. But how did this technology develop over time? The idea of CA technology is not new. It started in the 1800s. In the 1920s, Franklin Kidd and Cyril West from Cambridge University studied how fruits breathe. This led to the first apple storage using “gas storage” in 1929. Later, Robert Smock from Cornell University made the technology better. He wanted to make local apples last longer, and his work helped McIntosh apples stay fresh until spring. Today, CA technology is used in many ways. It helps keep products fresh in cold storage places, food packaging, and even the flower industry. It makes sure that fruits; food, and flowers stay fresh for a long time, even after traveling far. 40．What will you most likely do if you plan to design a storage system for fresh flowers using CA technology? A．Add more O2 to help the flowers breathe better. B．Lower the temperature and humidity to slow down the flowers’ activities. C．Add more CO2 and reduce O2 to keep the flowers fresh. D．Put the flowers in direct sunlight to make them grow faster. 41．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．Cherries: A Favorite Fruit with a Long Journey B．The Secret to Fresh Cherries: CA Technology C．The History of CA Technology D．How CA Technology Works 42．In which part of a newspaper can we probably find the passage? A．Culture Links. B．Science Center. C．The World. D．Education Focus. 【答案】40．C 41．B 42．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了智利樱桃在中国的受欢迎程度以及其保鲜的秘密——控制气氛（CA）技术。 40．细节理解题。根据第三段“But CA technology creates a safer place for fruits and vegetables. It reduces the oxygen (O2) level in the storage (存储) area. This slows down the fruits’ activities. At the same time, it adds more carbon dioxide (CO2), and sometimes a little nitrogen (N2). The temperature and humidity (湿度) are also changed to ‘put the fruits to sleep’.”可知，如果计划使用CA技术设计一个用于鲜花保鲜的存储系统，应该增加二氧化碳并减少氧气以保持鲜花的新鲜。故选C。 41．最佳标题题。根据第一段“Cherries are one of China’s favorite fruits...Have you ever wondered how they stay fresh for so long?”以及后文对CA技术的详细介绍，可知本文主要讲述了智利樱桃保鲜的秘密——CA技术。因此选项B“The Secret to Fresh Cherries: CA Technology”最适合作为本文的标题。故选B。 42．推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了CA技术的原理、发展历程以及应用，这些内容都属于科学领域的知识。因此这篇文章最有可能出现在报纸的科学中心部分。故选B。 Ⅳ. 信息还原（共5小题; 每小题1分; 满分5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Jumping rope is a fun exercise that helps you stay active and healthy. If you want to learn how to jump rope, you can follow these easy steps to achieve your goal. First, you need to choose the right rope. 43 . This way, you can jump comfortably without tripping (绊倒). Additionally, the handles should fit your hands well—neither too heavy nor too light. Next, 44 . Mold the rope’s handles in each of your hands. Keep your hands about a foot away from your body at a 45-degree angle. This helps the rope swing smoothly. Then, begin by swinging the rope over your head using your wrists rather than your arms. 45 jump lightly on your toes. Try to keep your jumps small and controlled. When you practice, pay attention to finding a regular rhythm. If you’re a beginner, start slowly. Just jump a little bit each time you skip. Remember to keep your back straight and look forward instead of looking down at your feet. 46 . Once you feel comfortable, you can try skipping faster. To make it more fun, count how many jumps you can do in a row! 47 , slow down and take short breaks. The more you practice, the better you’ll become at it! Jumping rope is easy to learn and a great way to exercise. With a little patience, you’ll soon master the art of skipping like a professional!

After all, we can’t win all the time. However, we can learn something valuable from every failure (失败). This may help us succeed in the future. So we must know how to be a good loser. We must not be afraid of losing. When we lose, just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of it. Failure can’t be avoided in our life. Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb (灯泡).When he was asked how he felt, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times but had learned 10,000 things which didn’t work. We must know that history is full of examples of men and women who achieved success although they failed many times. Losing is not very disgraceful. We must accept our failure and learn to take advantage of it. Remember that it can be helpful. Take action to walk out of it. When we lose, think about what we did and how we can improve. If someone else can help, we’ll be lucky enough. Maybe he or she has been through the same experience before. Many people enjoy helping others solve problems. This can save us a lot of time in learning how to avoid the same mistakes in the future. We should face our failure when we lose. There is only one winner in every competition. Some win, while some lose. That is a usual way of life. If we offer the winners our congratulations (祝贺) and share in their happiness, we won’t feel sorry for our failure. In a word, being a good loser will help us to succeed in life. It might be painful at the beginning, but there are many advantages. Good losers set examples to us, and most importantly, they finally win. 59．What can we learn from every failure according to the text? 60．In the writer’s eyes, why did Edison achieve success? 61．What does the underlined word “disgraceful” probably mean? 62．What does the writer advise the losers to do in a competition? 63．What is the best title for the text? 【答案】59．A valuable thing./Something valuable. 60．He saw the bright side of losing./He was not afraid of losing./He learned from his failures. 61．Bad./Terrible./Awful. 62．Offer the winners congratulations and share in their happiness./They should face their failure (bravely/properly/correctly). 63．(Advice on) How to be a good loser (Any reasonable answer is OK.) 【导语】本文主要讨论了失败是生活的一部分，我们可以从每一次失败中学习有价值的东西，并提出了如何成为一个好的失败者的建议。 59．根据第一段“However, we can learn something valuable from every failure (失败). This may help us succeed in the future.”可知，我们可以从每一次失败中学到有价值的东西。故填A valuable thing. / Something valuable. 60．根据第二段“We must not be afraid of losing. When we lose, just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of it.”和“When he was asked how he felt, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times but had learned 10,000 things which didn’t work.”可知，在作者看来，爱迪生之所以成功是因为他不害怕失败，看到了失败的积极面，并从失败中学习。故填He saw the bright side of losing. / He was not afraid of losing. / He learned from his failures. 61．根据第三段“Losing is not very disgraceful. We must accept our failure and learn to take advantage of it.”可知，失败并不是非常可耻的，我们必须接受我们的失败并学会利用它。因此，disgraceful的意思是“可耻的，糟糕的”。故填Bad. / Terrible. / Awful. 62．根据第四段“If we offer the winners our congratulations (祝贺) and share in their happiness, we won’t feel sorry for our failure.”和“We should face our failure when we lose.”可知，作者建议失败者在比赛中应该向获胜者表示祝贺并分享他们的快乐，或者勇敢地面对自己的失败。故填Offer the winners congratulations and share in their happiness. / They should face their failure (bravely/ properly/ correctly). 63．根据第一段“So we must know how to be a good loser.”和最后一段“In a word, being a good loser will help us to succeed in life.”可知，本文主要讨论了如何成为一个好的失败者，因此最好的标题可以是“如何成为一个好的失败者”。故填(Advice on) How to be a good loser (Any reasonable answer is OK.)

One of my most unforgettable 11 was a 5-year-old girl named Vanessa. She had 12 walking and could not speak. Life was too difficult for her. We 13 sat on the floor for our music lessons. That was what we liked to do. Vanessa liked to 14 on my knees. One of her favorite 15 was John the Rabbit. It was a call and response (口令与回应) song. I sang the call and the students 16 twice while singing the repeating part, “Oh, yes!” Vanessa liked to put her hands together with mine and clap with me. But she 17 saying or singing a word. One day, when the song was finished, Vanessa 18 around, looked at me in the eye, clapped her little hands 19 like other students, and said the words, “Oh, yes!” At that moment, I was the one who could not speak and felt really 20 . Several years later, I met Vanessa by accident 21 I was driving through town. I stopped my car and waved to say hello. She 22 back with a big smile on her face and clapped twice, singing the song we had done so many times in class. This little girl, through her connection with music, left a 23 impression on me. Every child has the ability to learn and grow. As teachers, we just need to find 24 ways to help our children, no matter what their situation is. We should also be 25 any child who needs us.

After the third time I needed stitches (缝合针), a doctor suggested fishing to calm me down. But since I’d nearly drowned (淹死) a few years before, my mother ruled water out of my life. Finally, she settled on reading as the only solution to my condition. For one hour each day, I was forced to sit and read. I cried so hard that I couldn’t see the letters on the page. Then my teacher uncle stepped in with a pile of books. He said all I had to do was read the first twenty pages of a book. If I was still bored after that, I could put it down and pick up another. My first pick was Roald Dahl’s The Enormous Crocodile, and after twenty pages, I fell out of my chair laughing. In the story, a crocodile tries to eat children by pretending to be a seesaw (跷跷板). I followed this up with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Fantastic Mr. Fox. Their quick plots and simple messages were very satisfying to read. Little by little, the books became longer and more challenging. I was in the middle of reading The Lord ofthe Rings when my mother complained that I was reading too much and that I should run around outside like I used to. But by then it was too late—I couldn’t stop reading. I began eagerly reading serious novels like Adventures ofHuckleberry Finn. I will never forget the scene where Huck is shocked that his friend Jim’s blood is red, not black. That moment taught me how stupid it is to judge someone by the color of their skin. To this day, I think of books as a secret friend to whom I can always turn for advice. A good book must do two things: entertain and educate. If a book doesn’t interest you after twenty pages, put it down and try another one. 26．What is the writing purpose of the first paragraph? A．To show that the writer loved fishing as a child. B．To tell a funny story about childhood accidents. C．To describe the writer’s favorite childhood activity. D．To explain why the writer’s mother chose reading for him. 27．The underlined phrase “settle on” in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by “________ ”. A．feed on B．move on C．decide on D．depend on 28．Why does the author mention his teacher uncle in Paragraph 2? A．To explain how hard reading is. B．To show how he was encouraged to read. C．To explain why he disliked reading. D．To show his uncle’s wisdom in reading. 29．According to the author, what makes for a good book? A．It must be fascinating at the beginning. B．It should be easy to understand and short. C．It should have many characters and a long story. D．It must be both enjoyable and provide knowledge. 30．What would be the best title for the passage? A．Twenty Pages to a New Life B．The Secret Friend in the Pages C．Different Interesting Books D．A Mother’s Choice B Yesterday was July 15, Peter’s thirteenth birthday. Peter was really excited when he got a magic box on his birthday. He’d always dreamed of being a great magician. He decided to get his start at the school talent show. However, when he opened the box, he was a little sad. There were many plastic pieces and lots of instructions. Peter didn’t know where to start, and he closed it back up. The next week, Peter’s teacher sent out a sign-up form (报名表) for the school talent show. Peter still really wanted to be in the show. He filled in the form, “The Amazing Peter—a magic act.” News spread quickly. “Can you really do magic?” his friend Jack asked. “Sure,” Peter said. “Just wait and see.” He wasn’t worried. After all, there were four weeks before the talent show. One week passed. One night, Peter opened the box again. He picked the easiest trick and learned it quickly. Peter showed the trick to his grandma. “Wonderful, Peter!” she said loudly. “You are a real magician!” Peter was really proud of it. As time went by, Peter still didn’t learn any more tricks. Everything else in the box looked so hard. On the night before the talent show, Grandma said, “Tomorrow is the talent show, Peter! I can’t wait to see you on stage (舞台)!” “Er, Grandma, there is a problem,” Peter said nervously. “I haven’t learned any new tricks.” Grandma was surprised, but soon she calmed down and said, “Let’ s do it together. I believe you can succeed.” That night, Peter and Grandma stayed up very late. He read the instructions carefully, practiced every move, and managed to master a new trick. The next day, Peter amazed everyone at the talent show with his two tricks! There was a big smile on Peter’s face. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 31．What did Peter get on his thirteenth birthday? A．A magic box.

Most of these dark red, juicy fruits come from Chile by ship. The trip takes about 30 days. Have you ever wondered how they stay fresh for so long? The secret is a technology called Controlled Atmosphere (CA). Fruits and vegetables still “breathe” after they are picked. In a normal place, they react with the air, which makes them go bad faster. Microorganisms (微生物) in the air also make them spoil (变质) more quickly. But CA technology creates a safer place for fruits and vegetables. It reduces the oxygen (O2) level in the storage (存储) area. This slows down the fruits’ activities. At the same time, it adds more carbon dioxide (CO2), and sometimes a little nitrogen (N2). The temperature and humidity (湿度) are also changed to “put the fruits to sleep”. But how did this technology develop over time? The idea of CA technology is not new. It started in the 1800s. In the 1920s, Franklin Kidd and Cyril West from Cambridge University studied how fruits breathe. This led to the first apple storage using “gas storage” in 1929. Later, Robert Smock from Cornell University made the technology better. He wanted to make local apples last longer, and his work helped McIntosh apples stay fresh until spring. Today, CA technology is used in many ways. It helps keep products fresh in cold storage places, food packaging, and even the flower industry. It makes sure that fruits; food, and flowers stay fresh for a long time, even after traveling far. 40．What will you most likely do if you plan to design a storage system for fresh flowers using CA technology? A．Add more O2 to help the flowers breathe better. B．Lower the temperature and humidity to slow down the flowers’ activities. C．Add more CO2 and reduce O2 to keep the flowers fresh. D．Put the flowers in direct sunlight to make them grow faster. 41．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．Cherries: A Favorite Fruit with a Long Journey B．The Secret to Fresh Cherries: CA Technology C．The History of CA Technology D．How CA Technology Works 42．In which part of a newspaper can we probably find the passage? A．Culture Links. B．Science Center. C．The World. D．Education Focus.

Additionally, the handles should fit your hands well—neither too heavy nor too light. Next, 44 . Mold the rope’s handles in each of your hands. Keep your hands about a foot away from your body at a 45-degree angle. This helps the rope swing smoothly. Then, begin by swinging the rope over your head using your wrists rather than your arms. 45 jump lightly on your toes. Try to keep your jumps small and controlled. When you practice, pay attention to finding a regular rhythm. If you’re a beginner, start slowly. Just jump a little bit each time you skip. Remember to keep your back straight and look forward instead of looking down at your feet. 46 . Once you feel comfortable, you can try skipping faster. To make it more fun, count how many jumps you can do in a row! 47 , slow down and take short breaks. The more you practice, the better you’ll become at it!

Ⅵ. 任务型阅读（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，回答下面5个问题。(每题答案不超过10个词) Nobody wants to lose, but we must accept that losing is a part of life. After all, we can’t win all the time. However, we can learn something valuable from every failure (失败). This may help us succeed in the future. So we must know how to be a good loser. We must not be afraid of losing. When we lose, just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of it. Failure can’t be avoided in our life. Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb (灯泡).When he was asked how he felt, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times but had learned 10,000 things which didn’t work. We must know that history is full of examples of men and women who achieved success although they failed many times. Losing is not very disgraceful. We must accept our failure and learn to take advantage of it. Remember that it can be helpful. Take action to walk out of it. When we lose, think about what we did and how we can improve. If someone else can help, we’ll be lucky enough. Maybe he or she has been through the same experience before. Many people enjoy helping others solve problems. This can save us a lot of time in learning how to avoid the same mistakes in the future. We should face our failure when we lose. There is only one winner in every competition. Some win, while some lose. That is a usual way of life. If we offer the winners our congratulations (祝贺) and share in their happiness, we won’t feel sorry for our failure. In a word, being a good loser will help us to succeed in life. It might be painful at the beginning, but there are many advantages. Good losers set examples to us, and most importantly, they finally win. 59．What can we learn from every failure according to the text? 60．In the writer’s eyes, why did Edison achieve success? 61．What does the underlined word “disgraceful” probably mean? 62．What does the writer advise the losers to do in a competition? 63．What is the best title for the text? Ⅶ. 短文填空（共 10 小题; 每小题1分, 满分 10分） 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容及首字母提示，在空白处填入一个适当的单 词。 Astronauts: The Brave Explorers (探索者) of Space In recent years, Chinese astronauts have made great achievements in space exploration.

Astronauts are some of the bravest people in the world. They l 66 the Earth to explore the unknown depths of space. What they do is not only amazing but also important for all of us. To become an astronaut, one needs to have a strong body and a sharp mind. Astronauts train hard for y 67 . On the one hand, they have to study a lot, i 68 math, science, and technology. On the other hand, they have to learn many s 69 , like how to operate complex machines and how to stay calm in difficult situations. And they will also do space walks and keep the safety of the space station. In space, astronauts face many challenges. The lack of gravity (重力) makes e 70 simple tasks like eating and sleeping difficult. They have to wear special spacesuits to protect t 71 from the cold and dangerous radiation. And they need to work together as a team to complete their tasks. During their tasks, astronauts do many important things. They conduct scientific experiments to learn more about space, which helps us b 72 understand the universe. They also repair satellites and space stations to keep them working well. Astronauts are true heroes. They inspire us to reach for the stars and n 73 stop exploring. They are the pride of our nation and their courage and hard work make them role models for everyone.

One of my most unforgettable 11 was a 5-year-old girl named Vanessa. She had 12 walking and could not speak. Life was too difficult for her. We 13 sat on the floor for our music lessons. That was what we liked to do. Vanessa liked to 14 on my knees. One of her favorite 15 was John the Rabbit. It was a call and response (口令与回应) song. I sang the call and the students 16 twice while singing the repeating part, “Oh, yes!” Vanessa liked to put her hands together with mine and clap with me. But she 17 saying or singing a word. One day, when the song was finished, Vanessa 18 around, looked at me in the eye, clapped her little hands 19 like other students, and said the words, “Oh, yes!” At that moment, I was the one who could not speak and felt really 20 . Several years later, I met Vanessa by accident 21 I was driving through town. I stopped my car and waved to say hello. She 22 back with a big smile on her face and clapped twice, singing the song we had done so many times in class. This little girl, through her connection with music, left a 23 impression on me. Every child has the ability to learn and grow. As teachers, we just need to find 24 ways to help our children, no matter what their situation is. We should also be 25 any child who needs us. After all, every child has his or her own way of growing. 11．A．teachers B．students C．friends D．classmates 12．A．difficulty B．fun C．differences D．ideas 13．A．never B．seldom C．hardly D．usually 14．A．stand B．jump C．sit D．sleep 15．A．toys B．songs C．movies D．characters 16．A．laughed B．smiled C．clapped D．shouted 17．A．hated B．advised C．remembered D．enjoyed 18．A．ran B．turned C．went D．played 19．A．once B．twice C．three times D．many times 20．A．tired B．relaxed C．upset D．moved 21．A．before B．after C．until D．while 22．A．held B．called C．waved D．gave 23．A．scary B．serious C．deep D．strange 24．A．right B．same C．common D．similar 25．A．strict with B．proud of C．different from D．patient with Ⅲ. 阅读理解（共17小题;每小题2分,满分34分） 请认真阅读下列材料, 从材料后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项。 A I was a very active child, always running around and crashing into things. After the third time I needed stitches (缝合针), a doctor suggested fishing to calm me down. But since I’d nearly drowned (淹死) a few years before, my mother ruled water out of my life. Finally, she settled on reading as the only solution to my condition. For one hour each day, I was forced to sit and read. I cried so hard that I couldn’t see the letters on the page. Then my teacher uncle stepped in with a pile of books. He said all I had to do was read the first twenty pages of a book. If I was still bored after that, I could put it down and pick up another. My first pick was Roald Dahl’s The Enormous Crocodile, and after twenty pages, I fell out of my chair laughing. In the story, a crocodile tries to eat children by pretending to be a seesaw (跷跷板). I followed this up with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Fantastic Mr. Fox. Their quick plots and simple messages were very satisfying to read. Little by little, the books became longer and more challenging. I was in the middle of reading The Lord ofthe Rings when my mother complained that I was reading too much and that I should run around outside like I used to. But by then it was too late—I couldn’t stop reading. I began eagerly reading serious novels like Adventures ofHuckleberry Finn. I will never forget the scene where Huck is shocked that his friend Jim’s blood is red, not black. That moment taught me how stupid it is to judge someone by the color of their skin. To this day, I think of books as a secret friend to whom I can always turn for advice. A good book must do two things: entertain and educate. If a book doesn’t interest you after twenty pages, put it down and try another one. 26．What is the writing purpose of the first paragraph? A．To show that the writer loved fishing as a child. B．To tell a funny story about childhood accidents. C．To describe the writer’s favorite childhood activity. D．To explain why the writer’s mother chose reading for him. 27．The underlined phrase “settle on” in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by “________ ”. A．feed on B．move on C．decide on D．depend on 28．Why does the author mention his teacher uncle in Paragraph 2? A．To explain how hard reading is. B．To show how he was encouraged to read. C．To explain why he disliked reading. D．To show his uncle’s wisdom in reading. 29．According to the author, what makes for a good book? A．It must be fascinating at the beginning. B．It should be easy to understand and short. C．It should have many characters and a long story. D．It must be both enjoyable and provide knowledge. 30．What would be the best title for the passage? A．Twenty Pages to a New Life B．The Secret Friend in the Pages C．Different Interesting Books D．A Mother’s Choice B Yesterday was July 15, Peter’s thirteenth birthday. Peter was really excited when he got a magic box on his birthday. He’d always dreamed of being a great magician. He decided to get his start at the school talent show. However, when he opened the box, he was a little sad. There were many plastic pieces and lots of instructions. Peter didn’t know where to start, and he closed it back up. The next week, Peter’s teacher sent out a sign-up form (报名表) for the school talent show. Peter still really wanted to be in the show. He filled in the form, “The Amazing Peter—a magic act.” News spread quickly. “Can you really do magic?” his friend Jack asked. “Sure,” Peter said. “Just wait and see.” He wasn’t worried. After all, there were four weeks before the talent show. One week passed. One night, Peter opened the box again. He picked the easiest trick and learned it quickly. Peter showed the trick to his grandma. “Wonderful, Peter!” she said loudly. “You are a real magician!” Peter was really proud of it. As time went by, Peter still didn’t learn any more tricks. Everything else in the box looked so hard. On the night before the talent show, Grandma said, “Tomorrow is the talent show, Peter! I can’t wait to see you on stage (舞台)!” “Er, Grandma, there is a problem,” Peter said nervously. “I haven’t learned any new tricks.” Grandma was surprised, but soon she calmed down and said, “Let’ s do it together. I believe you can succeed.” That night, Peter and Grandma stayed up very late. He read the instructions carefully, practiced every move, and managed to master a new trick. The next day, Peter amazed everyone at the talent show with his two tricks! There was a big smile on Peter’s face. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 31．What did Peter get on his thirteenth birthday? A．A magic box.

Most of these dark red, juicy fruits come from Chile by ship. The trip takes about 30 days. Have you ever wondered how they stay fresh for so long? The secret is a technology called Controlled Atmosphere (CA). Fruits and vegetables still “breathe” after they are picked. In a normal place, they react with the air, which makes them go bad faster. Microorganisms (微生物) in the air also make them spoil (变质) more quickly. But CA technology creates a safer place for fruits and vegetables. It reduces the oxygen (O2) level in the storage (存储) area. This slows down the fruits’ activities. At the same time, it adds more carbon dioxide (CO2), and sometimes a little nitrogen (N2). The temperature and humidity (湿度) are also changed to “put the fruits to sleep”. But how did this technology develop over time? The idea of CA technology is not new. It started in the 1800s. In the 1920s, Franklin Kidd and Cyril West from Cambridge University studied how fruits breathe. This led to the first apple storage using “gas storage” in 1929. Later, Robert Smock from Cornell University made the technology better. He wanted to make local apples last longer, and his work helped McIntosh apples stay fresh until spring. Today, CA technology is used in many ways. It helps keep products fresh in cold storage places, food packaging, and even the flower industry. It makes sure that fruits; food, and flowers stay fresh for a long time, even after traveling far. 40．What will you most likely do if you plan to design a storage system for fresh flowers using CA technology? A．Add more O2 to help the flowers breathe better. B．Lower the temperature and humidity to slow down the flowers’ activities. C．Add more CO2 and reduce O2 to keep the flowers fresh. D．Put the flowers in direct sunlight to make them grow faster. 41．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．Cherries: A Favorite Fruit with a Long Journey B．The Secret to Fresh Cherries: CA Technology C．The History of CA Technology D．How CA Technology Works 42．In which part of a newspaper can we probably find the passage? A．Culture Links. B．Science Center. C．The World. D．Education Focus.

Ⅵ. 任务型阅读（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，回答下面5个问题。(每题答案不超过10个词) Nobody wants to lose, but we must accept that losing is a part of life. After all, we can’t win all the time. However, we can learn something valuable from every failure (失败). This may help us succeed in the future. So we must know how to be a good loser. We must not be afraid of losing. When we lose, just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of it. Failure can’t be avoided in our life. Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb (灯泡).When he was asked how he felt, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times but had learned 10,000 things which didn’t work. We must know that history is full of examples of men and women who achieved success although they failed many times. Losing is not very disgraceful. We must accept our failure and learn to take advantage of it. Remember that it can be helpful. Take action to walk out of it. When we lose, think about what we did and how we can improve. If someone else can help, we’ll be lucky enough. Maybe he or she has been through the same experience before. Many people enjoy helping others solve problems. This can save us a lot of time in learning how to avoid the same mistakes in the future. We should face our failure when we lose. There is only one winner in every competition. Some win, while some lose. That is a usual way of life. If we offer the winners our congratulations (祝贺) and share in their happiness, we won’t feel sorry for our failure. In a word, being a good loser will help us to succeed in life. It might be painful at the beginning, but there are many advantages. Good losers set examples to us, and most importantly, they finally win. 59．What can we learn from every failure according to the text? 60．In the writer’s eyes, why did Edison achieve success? 61．What does the underlined word “disgraceful” probably mean? 62．What does the writer advise the losers to do in a competition? 63．What is the best title for the text?

On the other hand, they have to learn many s 69 , like how to operate complex machines and how to stay calm in difficult situations. And they will also do space walks and keep the safety of the space station. In space, astronauts face many challenges. The lack of gravity (重力) makes e 70 simple tasks like eating and sleeping difficult. They have to wear special spacesuits to protect t 71 from the cold and dangerous radiation. And they need to work together as a team to complete their tasks. During their tasks, astronauts do many important things. They conduct scientific experiments to learn more about space, which helps us b 72 understand the universe. They also repair satellites and space stations to keep them working well. Astronauts are true heroes. They inspire us to reach for the stars and n 73 stop exploring. They are the pride of our nation and their courage and hard work make them role models for everyone.
