【解析】
【原文】Fast-food is becoming more and more popular in China, especially among children, teenagers and white-collars. If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today, many teenagers are overweight because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers love food with a lot of fat, oil, salt and sugar. People often call this kind of “junk food”.
We also find many teenagers eat unhealthily. Some don’t have breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don’t have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent survey at one school, we found that over two-thirds of the students didn’t follow a healthy diet. They didn’t like vegetables, and many of them didn’t like to eat fruits. They preferred to eat food with a lot of salt, sugar or fat. Parents today also worry about their children’s diet.
Though fast food can save a lot of time and we can have many choices from various collections of food, it is usually not a balanced diet. Fast-food is only a good choice when you are in a hurry. For people, especially children, eat fast-food as little as possible.

Primary school sports days are fun. They usually have interesting activities such as the egg and spoon race and the sack race. Other events include the rope skipping and the three-legged race. In middle and high schools, sports days include many of the common track and field events. They are more serious and competitive than primary school ones.
Students’ parents and other relatives also come to the school on sports days. They watch children play. Many schools in the west have “mothers and fathers” race for parents to take part in!
Although sports days are exciting, they also have some problems. According to some reports in the US, sports days have become too competitive to be good for students. Some parents put too much pressure on their children. Some schools don’t have “mothers and fathers” races any more as there is much fighting and cheating.

考查形容词辨析。much许多,修饰不可数名词;less更少,little的比较级,修饰不可数名词;many许多,修饰可数名词复数;little几乎没有,修饰不可数名词。根据“I don’t like the weather in February this year because there were…”可知,这里需要一个词来修饰可数名词复数rainy days,表示“很多”。many修饰可数名词复数,符合语境。故选C。
26. He gets up very early every day _______ on Sundays..

考查情态动词辨析。needn’t不需要;shouldn’t不应该;may not不可能;wouldn’t将不会。根据“I didn’t pass the math test. I have watched TV series every day.”可知,此处应该答的是建议,所以,“shouldn’t不应该”符合题意。故选B。

—_______.
A. Neither did Mary B. Neither does Mary C. Nor Mary did D. Neither Mary did
【答案】A

考查倒装句和动词时态。根据“Jack didn’t attend the lecture.”可知,此处表示“某人也不……”时,常用Neither/Nor+助动词+主语的结构,原句时态为一般过去时,因此助动词需用did,且主语和助动词需倒装。故选A。
32. I heard him _______ the accordion (手风琴) when I passed by.
A. plays B. playing C. was playing D. is playing
【答案】B
【解析】

考查非谓语动词。hear sb. do sth. 表示“听到某人做某事”,强调听到动作的全过程;hear sb. doing sth. 表示“听到某人正在做某事”,强调动作正在进行。根据“when I passed by”可知,强调路过时听到他正在拉手风琴这个正在进行的动作,所以应该用hear sb. doing sth.结构。 故选B。

A. What a B. What an C. How a D. How an
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:前天他给我们讲了一个多么令人惊奇的故事啊!
考查感叹句。分析句子结构可知,此句为感叹句,感叹句通常有两种结构:What+(a/an)+形容词+名词+主语+谓语!和How+形容词/副词+主语+谓语!。本句中“amazing story”为名词短语,且“story”为可数名词单数形式,前面应用不定冠词修饰,“amazing”为元音音素开头的单词,不定冠词应用“an”,所以感叹句应用“What an”引导。故选B。

A. playing B. play C. to play D. played

考查非谓语动词。根据“Cathy practices…the violin over and over every day to pass the violin examination next month.”可知,这里考查practice doing sth,表示“练习做某事”,所以需要用play的动名词形式playing。故选A。
35. There’s no need to take a taxi _______ it’s only five minutes’ walk from here.
A. because B. while C. though D. until
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:没必要坐出租车,因为从这里步行只有五分钟的路程。
考查连词辨析。because因为;while当……时候;though虽然;until直到。根据“There’s no need to take a taxi…it’s only five minutes’ walk from here.”可知,后面的句子it’s only five minutes’ walk from here是前面There’s no need to take a taxi的原因,所以需要一个表示原因的连词,because符合语境。故选A。
36. The idea of eating in that big restaurant _______.
A. tastes wonderful B. tastes wonderfully
C. sounds wonderful D. sounds wonderfully
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:在那家大餐厅吃饭的想法听起来很棒。
考查系动词辨析及用法。sound听起来;taste尝起来。系动词后接形容词作表语,所以B和D选项错误;根据“The idea”可知,想法是听起来极好的,故选C。

A. serious B. more serious C. most serious D. the most serious

B:The same to you.
A. Happy birthday B. Have a good weekend C. Congratulations D. Thanks
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——再见,Jack。周末愉快。——你也一样。
考查情景交际。Happy birthday生日快乐;Have a good weekend周末愉快;Congratulations祝贺;Thanks谢谢!根据“The same to you.”以及选项可知,应选Have a good weekend。当别人祝你周末愉快时,你也应该回应他周末愉快。故选B。
40. A: I’m sorry that I forgot to bring your book.
B: _______. Please bring it to me next time.
A. Never mind B. It’s a pity C. Don’t mention it D. You’re welcome
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——很抱歉我忘记带你的书了。——没关系。下次请带给我。
考查情景交际用语。Never mind没关系,不要紧;It’s a pity真遗憾;Don’t mention it不客气,别提了;You’re welcome不客气。根据“Please bring it to me next time.”可知,此处表示“没关系,不要紧”,Never mind常用于回应别人的道歉,表示不介意,符合语境。故选A。

63. take, we, to, protect, our , actions, should, environment (连词成句)
____________________________________________________________________.

There were fields of corn separated by windbreaks (防风林) of tall trees and a railway line cut through the middle of the landscape with its shiny steel tracks.

I don’t know why, but I suddenly stopped throwing stones and just started ___71___ and listening. The corn leaves, the trees, the train tracks, every cloud in the sky, every stone on the ground, every sight, every sound; it was…beautiful! I had ___72___ thought of beauty before. I was too young to be aware of the concept (概念). But there it was all around me and I was part of it.

句意:我真正记得的第一个夏天,我六岁,在乡下度过。

句意:即使他们有机会花一些时间与大自然接触,他们也更有可能忽略它。
family家庭;class班级;team团队;nature自然。根据“Even when they have a chance of spending some time with”可知,这里指的是与自然相处,因为前文提到作者在自然中的体验,而城市孩子忽视的应该是自然。故选D。

How to be a good detective
Have you seen the Hollywood movie Sherlock Holmes? Holmes is a character created by British writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. His books were so popular that Holmes soon became “the most famous detective in the world”. What do you need to be a good detective? The movie Sherlock Holmes will show you.
In this movie, this great detective faces a dangerous man, Lord Blackwood. Together with his best friend Dr Watson, Holmes stops Blackwood’s plan to control the world with black “magic”.
Most of us are not as intelligent as Holmes. But we can also work out mysteries on our own. All we have to do is to follow some simple rules.
Rule No. 1: Justice (正义) is the most important.
No matter how smart he or she is, the most important quality for detective is being good. In the movie, Lord Blackwood and Sherlock Holmes are both very intelligent. The difference is that Lord Blackwood is a bad man and he does bad things. Holmes can beat him on the side of justice.
Rule No. 2: Have sharp eyes.
Every bad man tries to cover up what he did. But not all things can be covered up easily. A good detective can discover clues hidden at crime scenes with sharp eyes. For example, Holmes can simply look at a man’s footprints and quickly find out his personal information like age and habits.
Rule No. 3: A good assistant is a great help.
Even though Holmes has knowledge about many subjects, such as chemistry, botany and anatomy, he still needs Dr Watson’s help to fight with him. We should also have someone to help us, especially if we don’t know as much as Holmes.
Rule No. 4: Logic is the key.
A good detective never jumps to conclusions. When all the necessary clues are put together, you’d better think carefully. If you can’t work it out, don’t be afraid. Just take a deep breath and concentrate on thinking. Logic can help you discover missing clues.
83. Who created “the most famous detective in the world”—Sherlock Holmes?
__________________________________________________________.
84. What’s Lord Blackwood’s plan in the movie?
His plan ___________________________________________________.
85. Being intelligent is the most important quality for a detective, isn’t it?
__________________________________________________________.
86. How can Holmes find out a man’s personal information like age and habits?
By ________________________________________________________.
87. Does a good detective need much knowledge or a good assistant?
__________________________________________________________.
88. What do you think a good detective needs?
A good detective needs ____________ because _____________.
【答案】83. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
84. is to control the world with black “magic”
85. No, it isn’t
86. looking at the man’s footprints##simply looking at the man’s footprints
87. Both. 88. ①. sharp eyes ②. sharp eyes can help the detective discover clues hidden at crime scenes
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,通过《福尔摩斯》电影案例阐述了成为优秀侦探的四大准则。
【83题详解】
根据“Holmes is a character created by British writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle...Holmes soon became ‘the most famous detective in the world’.”可知,“世界上最著名的侦探”福尔摩斯是阿瑟·柯南·道尔爵士创作的一个人物。故填Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
【84题详解】
根据“Holmes stops Blackwood’s plan to control the world with black ‘magic’.”可知,他的计划是用黑“魔法”控制世界。故填is to control the world with black “magic”。
【85题详解】
根据“...the most important quality for detective is being good.”可知,做侦探最重要的品质是为人善良,不是聪明。反意疑问句的回答应与事实情况一致,应作否定回答。故填No, it isn’t。
【86题详解】
根据“Holmes can simply look at a man’s footprints and quickly find out his personal information like age and habits.”可知,福尔摩斯通过观察此人的脚印,便能迅速推断出他的年龄、习惯等个人信息。故填looking at the man’s footprints/simply looking at the man’s footprints。
【87题详解】
根据“A good assistant is a great help. Even though Holmes has knowledge about many subjects, such as chemistry, botany and anatomy, he still needs Dr Watson’s help to fight with him.”可知,尽管福尔摩斯对许多学科都有所了解,但是他还是需要华生的帮忙,由此可知一个好的侦探需要渊博的知识和一个好的助手。故填Both.
【88题详解】
本题答案不唯一。根据“Have sharp eyes...A good detective can discover clues hidden at crime scenes with sharp eyes.”可知,优秀的侦探必须拥有敏锐的双眼,因为犀利的目光能帮助侦探发现犯罪现场隐藏的线索。故填sharp eyes;sharp eyes can help the detective discover clues hidden at crime scenes。

Wedding in the US are quite different from those in China. If you want to know more, please follow me!
Wedding in the United States vary as much as the people do. There are church weddings with a great deal of fanfare (喇叭声). There are weddings on mountain-tops with guests barefooted; and there have been weddings on the ocean floor with oxygen tanks for the guests. But many weddings, no matter where or how they are performed, include certain traditional custom.
Before a couple are married, they become engaged. Invitations are sent to those who live nearby, their close friends and their relatives who live far away. When everything is ready, then comes the most exciting moment.
The wedding itself usually lasts between 20 and 40 minutes. The wedding party enters the church while the wedding march is played. The bride carrying a bouquet (花束) enters last with her father who will “give her away”. The groom enters the church from a side door. When the wedding party is gathered by the altar (神坛), the bride and groom exchange vows. It is traditional to use the words “To have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part.” Following the vows, the couple exchange rings. Wearing the wedding ring on the fourth finger of the left hand is an old custom.
After the ceremony there is often a party called a “reception” which gives the wedding guests an opportunity to congratulate the newlyweds.
The car in which the couple leaves the church is decorated with balloons and streamers (彩色纸带). The words “Just married” are pointed on the back window. The bride and groom run to the car under a shower of rice thrown by the guests. When the couple drives away from the church, friends often chase them in cars, drawing attention to them. Then the couple goes on their honeymoon.

How to be a good detective
Have you seen the Hollywood movie Sherlock Holmes? Holmes is a character created by British writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. His books were so popular that Holmes soon became “the most famous detective in the world”. What do you need to be a good detective? The movie Sherlock Holmes will show you.
In this movie, this great detective faces a dangerous man, Lord Blackwood. Together with his best friend Dr Watson, Holmes stops Blackwood’s plan to control the world with black “magic”.
Most of us are not as intelligent as Holmes. But we can also work out mysteries on our own. All we have to do is to follow some simple rules.
Rule No. 1: Justice (正义) is the most important.
No matter how smart he or she is, the most important quality for detective is being good. In the movie, Lord Blackwood and Sherlock Holmes are both very intelligent. The difference is that Lord Blackwood is a bad man and he does bad things. Holmes can beat him on the side of justice.
Rule No. 2: Have sharp eyes.
Every bad man tries to cover up what he did. But not all things can be covered up easily. A good detective can discover clues hidden at crime scenes with sharp eyes. For example, Holmes can simply look at a man’s footprints and quickly find out his personal information like age and habits.
Rule No. 3: A good assistant is a great help.
Even though Holmes has knowledge about many subjects, such as chemistry, botany and anatomy, he still needs Dr Watson’s help to fight with him. We should also have someone to help us, especially if we don’t know as much as Holmes.
Rule No. 4: Logic is the key.
A good detective never jumps to conclusions. When all the necessary clues are put together, you’d better think carefully. If you can’t work it out, don’t be afraid. Just take a deep breath and concentrate on thinking. Logic can help you discover missing clues.
83. Who created “the most famous detective in the world”—Sherlock Holmes?
