Here are some of these famous spots that are essential to understand the city’s complicated past. Eiffel Tower Presented as part of the 1889 World Exposition in Paris, the Eiffel Tower has become the city’s most famous attraction. It is accessible on Line 6 or Line 8 of the Paris Metro by Bir-Hakeim or Trocadéro stations. If possible, avoid visiting this spot at peak hours (10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.) or on weekends, so you can make the most of your visit to enjoy the views from the top. The best moments are right after it first opens on weekdays. Notre-Dame Cathedral Dating back to the 12th century, the Notre-Dame Cathedral has long towered alongside the banks of the Seine River. With its complicated Gothic (哥特式的) architectural details, it represents Parisian religion and architecture. Unfortunately, a fire broke out on April 15, 2019, destroying part of it. Visitors are not allowed to enter now. Louvre Museum Louvre Museum is one of the most famous art museums in the world where you can witness the city’s rich painting history from the medieval (中世纪的) period to the present. It is easily accessible on Line 1 from the Palais Royal-Musée du Louvre station. It is closed on Tuesdays as well as January 1, May 1, and December 25 each year. Arc de Triomphe The Arc de Triomphe serves as a national symbol of France, which was built by Napoleon I in celebration of the victory at the Battle of Austerlitz. Take Line 1, 2, or 6 to Charles de Gaulle-Etoile station and you will see the Arc de Triomphe. Visitors can purchase tickets for a tour to the top to enjoy the views of the city. 1. Which is the best time to visit Eiffel Tower? A. At 2:00 p.m., Sunday. B. At 9:00 a.m., Monday. C. At 11:00 a.m., Tuesday. D. At 10:00 a.m., Saturday. 2. Where should visitors go if they are interested in art history? A. Eiffel Tower. B. Louvre Museum. C. Arc de Triomphe. D. Notre-Dame Cathedral. 3. What can be inferred from the listed attractions? A. They require tickets for a tour. B. They are easily accessible by subway. C. They allow visitors to enter on holidays. D. They are spots to show the history of Paris. 【答案】1. B 2. B 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍了巴黎四个不同时期和建筑风格迥异的历史遗迹。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段第三句“If possible, avoid visiting this spot at peak hours (10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.) or on weekends, so you can make the most of your visit to enjoy the views from the top. The best moments are right after it first opens on weekdays.(如果可能的话，避免在高峰时间(上午10点至下午5点)或周末参观这个地方，这样你就可以充分利用你的参观来欣赏顶部的景色。最好的时刻是在工作日刚开门的时候。)”可知，应避免在高峰期和周末参观Eiffel Tower，且最好的参观时间是在它刚开门的时候，因此“周一上午九点”是最好的游览时间。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“Louvre Museum is one of the most famous art museums in the world where you can witness the city’s rich painting history from the medieval (中世纪的) period to the present. (卢浮宫博物馆是世界上最著名的艺术博物馆之一，在这里你可以见证这座城市从中世纪到现在丰富的绘画历史。)”可知，卢浮宫博物馆是了解从中世纪开始到现在的绘画历史的地方。故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。通读全文，尤其根据第一段末句“Here are some of these famous spots that are essential to understand the city’s complicated past. (这里有一些著名的景点，对于了解这座城市复杂的过去是必不可少的。)”可知，本文展示了关于巴黎历史的一些景点。故选D。 B On a sunny morning in 2001, Jim, a skilled diver and ocean lover, was diving as usual around Palm Beach in the Bahamas when he spotted a giant tiger shark circling a few feet away. The shark, which he later named Emma, was clearly struggling in pain. Seeing Jim, Emma swam close to him seemingly quite on purpose. With great fear and curiosity, Jim checked and found a fishing hook in Emma’s mouth. Despite the obvious risks, he managed to pull the hook out, careful not to cause any further injury to the animal. Jim has since removed four other hooks from Emma’s mouth on several occasions and sometimes freed her from fishing lines or plastic bags. The two have become inseparable. Every time Jim goes into the water in the area of Palm Beach, Emma comes around and rubs her head against him as a sign of affection (喜爱). It’s not the kind of behavior most people would expect from tiger sharks, which could easily tear a person apart. “When you suddenly come across a huge shark, it seems like it might end your life,” Jim said. “What makes Emma so special is that she’s so loving and affectionate. She’s not a mindless killer but a sentient (有感情的) animal just like cats and dogs.” Emma will always recognize Jim every time he dives in her area even if he changes diving equipment. Over time, she has learned his hand signals — an invitation to get her head rubbed and Jim claims that she started acting like a playful dog who loves being petted. “What makes Emma so special is that she’s so loving and affectionate. She’s not a mindless killer but a sentient (有感情的) animal just like cats and dogs.” Jim said. “To have a connection that lasts the entire time you`re in the water is so moving and so influential. One of the best things that have happened to me is the discovery of the affectionate aspect of this tiger shark.” 4. What might be the reason why Emma approached Jim initially? A. To greet him. B. To seek assistance. C. To ask for food. D. To make friends with him. 5. What makes Emma unique according to Jim? A. Her enormous body. B. Her feeding ability. C. Her high research value. D. Her pet-like character. 6. What can we learn from the text? A. Emma can read Jim`s sign language. B. Emma has never attacked human beings. C. Jim once saved Emma from a deadly disease. D. Jim has removed four hooks from Emma`s mouth. 7. Which can be the best title for the text? A. A Diver and His Odd Friend B. An Exciting Diving Experience C. Jim: A Person Devoted to Ocean Protection D. Palm Beach: An Ideal Base for Shark Watching 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文的体裁是记叙文。文章讲述了潜水员Jim与一只名为Emma的虎鲨之间的特殊友谊。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的“Seeing Jim, Emma swam close to him seemingly quite on purpose. With great fear and curiosity, Jim checked and found a fishing hook in Emma’s mouth. (看到吉姆，艾玛似乎是故意游向他。带着极大的恐惧和好奇，吉姆检查了一下，发现艾玛嘴里叼着一个鱼钩。)”可知，Emma靠近Jim是为了寻求帮助。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“What makes Emma so special is that she’s so loving and affectionate. She’s not a mindless killer but a sentient animal just like cats and dogs. (艾玛的特别之处在于她充满爱心和深情。她不是一个没有头脑的杀手，而是像猫和狗一样有感情的动物。)”可知，Jim认为Emma的特别之处在于她像宠物一样的性格。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“Over time, she has learned his hand signals — an invitation to get her head rubbed and Jim claims that she started acting like a playful dog who loves being petted. (随着时间的推移，她学会了他的手势——邀请她摸摸头的手势，吉姆说她开始表现得像一只喜欢被抚摸的顽皮的狗。)”可知，艾玛能读懂吉姆的手语。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章最后一段中的“To have a connection that lasts the entire time you`re in the water is so moving and so influential. One of the best things that have happened to me is the discovery of the affectionate aspect of this tiger shark. (你在水里的整个时间都有一种联系，这种联系是如此感人，如此有影响力。发生在我身上的最好的事情之一就是发现了这只虎鲨深情的一面。)”可知，文章讲述了潜水员Jim和虎鲨Emma之间的特殊友谊，因此“A Diver and His Odd Friend (潜水员和他的奇怪朋友)”是最佳标题。故选A。 C At the start of every working week, millions of people around the world get ready for something they do endlessly, joylessly and badly: a meeting. The reason is simple, says Madeleine de Hauke, a meeting coach and teacher in an Antwerp Management School. “We spend our lives and huge amounts of money on meetings, but there’s very little work that helps people run them effectively.” Madeleine is correct. Running a meeting well takes skill. People need to know ahead why they are meeting, what they are supposed to achieve, who really needs to be there and how they should contribute. That sounds obvious but it is not, as anyone who has been to a pointless meeting knows. Yet meeting leaders are expected to learn all this on the job. I cannot remember ever being taught how to organize a meeting, and I have rarely had a job requiring me to do it. I also like Madeleine’s descriptions of what she calls the Meeting Monsters: people who destroy meetings with all sorts of annoying behaviors. There is the unkind off-topic speaker. The non-stop noise in the background. The confusing rambler whose speech is endless. The rude multi-tasker. The one who says nothing but emails later to say what was decided will never work. The trouble is, we are all meeting monsters sometimes, says Madeleine. A good meeting leader knows how to stop this behavior, or make sure it never starts by making it clear what will and won’t be allowed. A bad meeting is like a virus (病毒). By failing to produce good decisions it often requires another meeting to be held, then another and another. Luckily there is no need for a vaccine (疫苗), just a bit more care and preparation, and an understanding that there is no shame in being taught how to lead a meeting well. 8. What cause bad meetings according to the author? A. Boring meeting activities. B. Untrained meeting leaders. C. Careless meeting coaches. D. Unreasonable meeting schedules. 9. Which is a typical behavior of a “Meeting Monster”? A. Never stopping his chatter. B. Scaring meeting attendees. C. Always raising questions. D. Refusing to finish his tasks. 10. Why does the author say “a bad meeting is like a virus”? A. It makes the attendees sick. B. It fails to produce decisions. C. It results in more meetings. D. It requires care and preparation. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Spend More for Meeting Attendees B. Get Ready for Bad Meetings C. Start the Week with a Meeting D. Kill the Meeting Monsters 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了当代人们大多数时间都在为无聊且糟糕的会议做准备，指出办好会议需要技巧，并给出了一些建议。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Running a meeting well takes skill. People need to know ahead why they are meeting, what they are supposed to achieve, who really needs to be there and how they should contribute. That sounds obvious but it is not, as anyone who has been to a pointless meeting knows. Yet meeting leaders are expected to learn all this on the job. I cannot remember ever being taught how to organize a meeting, and I have rarely had a job requiring me to do it.(主持好会议需要技巧。人们需要提前知道他们为什么要开会，他们应该达成什么目标，谁真正需要在那里，他们应该如何出力。这听起来很明显，但事实并非如此，任何参加过毫无意义的会议的人都知道这一点。然而，会议领导人应该在工作中学习所有这些。我不记得有人教过我如何组织会议，也很少有工作需要我这样做。)”可知，根据Madeleine所说，糟糕的会议是由于缺乏训练的会议领导导致。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“I also like Madeleine’s descriptions of what she calls the Meeting Monsters: people who destroy meetings with all sorts of annoying behaviors. There is the unkind off-topic speaker. The non-stop noise in the background. The confusing rambler whose speech is endless. The rude multi-tasker. The one who says nothing but emails later to say what was decided will never work.(我也喜欢Madeleine对“会议怪物”的描述：那些用各种令人讨厌的行为破坏会议的人。一种是刻薄的跑题演讲者。背景中不停的噪音。说个没完没了的令人困惑的漫游者。粗鲁的一心多用者。一个什么都不说，只是后来发邮件说决定了什么的人永远不会成功。)”可知，“会议怪物”的典型行为总是喋喋不休。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后第一段“A bad meeting is like a virus (病毒). By failing to produce good decisions it often requires another meeting to be held, then another and another.(糟糕的会议就像病毒。由于不能做出好的决策，它往往需要召开另一次会议，然后是一次又一次会议。)”可知，作者把糟糕会议比成病毒，因为糟糕的会议会导致再召开多次会议。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“The trouble is, we are all meeting monsters sometimes, says Madeleine.(“问题是，我们有时候都是会议怪物，”Madeleine说。)”以及最后一段“Luckily there is no need for a vaccine (疫苗), just a bit more care and preparation, and an understanding that there is no shame in being taught how to lead a meeting well.(幸运的是，不需要接种疫苗，只需要更多的用心和准备，以及理解学习如何很好地领导会议并不可耻。)”及全文可知，作者主要介绍办好会议，避免成为会议怪物需要的技巧。所以D选项“Kill the Meeting Monsters(杀死会议怪物)”可作为最好的题目。故选D。 D A novel design approach to gardening has been gaining in popularity worldwide. Referred to as matrix planting, this approach aims for nature to do a lot more of the heavy lifting in the garden, and even some of the designing. Eschewing fertilizers (化肥) and power tools, it’s based on an elegantly simple principle: to garden more like nature does. The concept was born when German city planners sought to plant large areas of parkland after World War II in a reproducible way that would need minimal maintenance. Planners created planting mixes that could be used modularly (模块化). In a matrix garden, plants with similar cultural needs are grouped so that they will grow together above and below ground, forming a cooperative ecosystem that conserves water and discourages weeds. Dutch plantsman and designer Piet Oudolf’s gardens popularized this style, adding artistic flavors to the planting mixes while playing with color and form, including four-season interest and serving the needs of wildlife. Beautiful year-round, they invite you to enjoy the smallest detail, from the sound of grasses in the gentle wind to the sculpture of odd-looking seed heads. It takes a lot of thought to look this natural. While matrix gardens appear wild, they are carefully planned, with cultural needs the first consideration. Led by the concept of “right plant, right place,” they match plants that enjoy the same soil, sun and weather conditions, and arrange them according to their patterns of growth. The benefits are substantial for both gardener and planet. With human inputs dramatically reduced, the garden’s ecology can develop well. Established matrix gardens should not need the life support we give most gardens: fertilizer, dividing, regular watering. Compared to traditional garden plots, they increase carbon absorption, reduce stormwater runoff and boost habitat and biodiversity significantly. 12. What does the underlined word “Eschewing” in the first paragraph mean? A. Running out of. B. Keeping away from. C. Putting up with. D. Taking advantage of. 13. Why was the idea of matrix planting introduced? A. To control weeds in large gardens. B. To bring in foreign species of plants. C. To conserve soil and water resources. D. To develop low-maintenance parkland. 14. Which of the following best describes Piet Oudolf’s gardens? A. Traditional. B. Odd-looking. C. Tasteful. D. Well-protected. 15. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. The future of gardening is WILD. B. Nature treats all lives as EQUALS. C. Matrix gardens need more CARE. D. Old garden plots work WONDERS. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种新型园艺设计方法——矩阵种植。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上文“Referred to as matrix planting, this approach aims for nature to do a lot more of the heavy lifting in the garden, and even some of the designing.(这种被称为矩阵种植的方法旨在让大自然在花园中承担更多繁重的工作，甚至承担一些设计工作)”可知，矩阵种植是让大自然自身承接更多的工作；结合常识和划线词所在句“Eschewing fertilizers (化肥) and power tools, it’s based on an elegantly simple principle: to garden more like nature does.(Eschewing化肥和电动工具，它基于一个极其简单的原则：更像大自然那样进行园艺种植)”中“to garden more like nature does”可推知，要像大自然那样进行园艺种植，让大自然自身承接更多的工作，就不需要使用化肥和电动工具。所以划线词“Eschewing”的意思是“避开、远离”，与“Keeping away from.”同义。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The concept was born when German city planners sought to plant large areas of parkland after World War II in a reproducible way that would need minimal maintenance.(这个概念诞生于二战后，当时德国城市规划者试图以一种可复制且需要最少维护的方式种植大片公园绿地)”可知，引入矩阵种植的想法是为了开发低维护成本的公园绿地。故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Dutch plantsman and designer Piet Oudolf’s gardens popularized this style, adding artistic flavors to the planting mixes while playing with color and form, including four season interest and serving the needs of wildlife.(荷兰植物学家兼设计师Piet Oudolf的花园推广了这种风格，在种植组合中增添了艺术气息，同时玩转色彩和形态，四季都有看点，还满足了野生动物的需求)”可知，Piet Oudolf的花园有艺术气息，很有品味。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第一段中“Referred to as matrix planting, this approach aims for nature to do a lot more of the heavy lifting in the garden, and even some of the designing. Eschewing fertilizers (化肥) and power tools, it’s based on an elegantly simple principle: to garden more like nature does.(这种被称为矩阵种植的方法旨在让大自然在花园中承担更多繁重的工作，甚至承担一些设计工作。它避开化肥和电动工具，基于一个极其简单的原则：更像大自然那样进行园艺种植)”和最后一段中“With human inputs dramatically reduced, the garden’s ecology can develop well. Established matrix gardens should not need the life support we give most gardens: fertilizer, dividing, regular watering. Compared to traditional garden plots, they increase carbon absorption, reduce stormwater runoff and boost habitat and biodiversity significantly.(随着人类投入的大幅减少，花园的生态系统可以良好发展。成熟的矩阵花园不需要我们给予大多数花园的维持手段：化肥、分株、定期浇水。与传统花园地块相比，它们增加了碳吸收，减少了雨水径流，并显著改善了栖息地和生物多样性)”可知，文章主要介绍了矩阵种植这种新型园艺设计方法，它让花园更接近自然、野生的状态，未来园艺可能会朝着这种更自然、野生的方向发展。故A项“The future of gardening is WILD(园艺的未来是自然的)”能概括文章主旨，适合做文章标题。故选A项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分;满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everybody needs a hobby.

D 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章就如何选取自己的爱好给出了一些策略和建议。 【详解】1.根据前文“Everybody needs a hobby.Having something you can do for fun is a great way to reduce stress and keep your mind occupied.”（每个人都需要一个爱好，找点乐子是减轻压力，占据大脑的好方法。）讲述了爱好带来的好处。下文“Here are some suggestions if you’re not sure what to pick up next.”（如果你不知道接下来该选什么，这里有一些建议。）谈论了选什么作为自己爱好的建议。所以空白处的内容应该是提出我们该选取什么作为我们的爱好。选项C.“But what kind of hobby should you choose?”（你应该选择什么爱好？）与后文形成逻辑上的因果关系，符合题意，故选C。 2.根据前文“Writing can help you deal with stress or anxiety. ”（写作可以帮助你缓解压力和焦虑。）讲述了写作作为爱好的结果。后文“Other hobbies can get expensive quickly, but writing won’t cost more than a few notebooks and pens.”（其他爱好可能会很快变得昂贵，但写作不会比几本笔记本和几支笔花费更多。）比较了把写作作为爱好和其它爱好优点。所以空白处应该承接前文讲述写作作为爱好的优点在于它是便宜的。选项B.“Best of all, it’s basically free!”（最棒的是，基本上是免费的！）与前后文保持逻辑上的一致，符合题意，故选B。 3.根据前文“Listening to music is a great way to reduce stress—and so is playing it. Learning to play an instrument is both relaxing and fulfilling. ”（听音乐是减轻压力的好方法——”播放音乐也是如此。学习演奏乐器既能让人放松，又能让人感到满足。）主要描述了学习音乐带来的好处。空白处处于本段的段末，可以作为对本段的总结。因而可以承接前文讲述学了音乐可以带给你很多优势。选项G. “Plus, you’ll be able to impress your friends and family someday with your musical talent.”（另外，有一天你的音乐天赋，会给你的朋友和家人留下深刻的印象。）符合题意，故选G。 4.根据前文“Indoor or outdoor gardening is a great hobby for stress reduction.”（室内或室外园艺是减轻压力的好习惯。）描述了园艺是减轻压力方式。后文“Not only does it help to reduce stress, but you’ll be able to harvest what you grow, or at least enjoy the aesthetics ”（这不仅有助于减轻压力，还能收获自己种植的东西，或者至少享受美感。）所以空白处可以讲述园艺这种技能的最好之出在于你可以帮助东西生长，起承上启下的作用，与后文形成逻辑上的一致关系。选项F.“One of the most satisfying things in life is helping something grow.”（生活中最令人满意的事情之一，就是帮助事物成长。）与文意相符，故选F。 5.根据下文“Craft-based hobbies are great stress-busters (压力消除器) and give you the satisfaction of making something with your own hands. ”（以手工艺为基础的业余爱好是巨大的压力克星，能让你有自己亲手制作东西的满足感。）提到了手工艺的业余爱好带给你的享受是让你有制作东西的满足感。空白处位于段首，应作为本段的中心句，围绕手工艺制作展开。选项D. “Make the handwork and channel your creativity.”（手工制作，释放你的创造力。）选项中“handwork”和“creativity”与后文中的 “Craft-based hobbies”及“making something with your own hands”形成照应关系，符合题意。故选D。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选择最佳选项 I was driving into my little town in Newlands when I blew a tyre.

It’s really interesting and ___44___ (include) family fun and lots of humor. I found myself always ___45___ (laugh) while reading it. 【答案】36. normally 37. but 38. with 39. are lost 40. accidents 41. to enjoy 42. greatest 43. who##that 44. includes 45. laughing 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇应用文。文章推荐了杰夫·金尼的书Diary Of A Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul。 【36题详解】 考查副词。句意：通常家庭自驾游都很有趣的，对吧? 根据句意可知，提示词修饰整个句子作评注性状语，应用副词normally，意为“通常”。故填normally。 【37题详解】 考查连词。句意：当旅行开始时，这家人充满了美好的希望，但事情并没有如他们所愿。根据句意可知，前后分句有转折关系，用并列连词but连接。故填but。 【38题详解】 考查介词。句意：日子一天天过去，坏运气越来越多。根据句意，应用介词with构成介词短语with more bad luck作伴随状语，其意为“有……”。故填with。 【39题详解】 考查动词时态语态。句意：他们在一个阳光明媚的水上公园度过了一天，但他们的车钥匙和钱包都丢在了那里。分析句子可知，lose(遗失，丢失)是分句谓语动词，与主语their car keys and wallets之间是被动关系，结合前面分句时态可知，应使用一般现在时态，又因主语their car keys and wallets是复数名词，所以谓语动词也应使用复数形式。综上，谓语动词应用一般现在时的被动语态，复数形式。故填are lost。 【40题详解】 考查名词。句意：旅途继续，又发生了几起事故。several意为“几个”，其后跟复数名词，可数名词accident用复数形式accidents。故填accidents。 【41题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：然而，在这个过程中，这家人找到了享受自己的时间。...time to do sth.为固定搭配，跟不定式作后置定语，意为“……的时间”。故填to enjoy。 【42题详解】 考查形容词最高级。句意：作为世界上最伟大的作家之一，金尼在讲述现实生活中可能出现的人物的故事方面做得非常好。“one of+形容词最高级+复数名词”是固定搭配，意为“最……之一”，句中指“最伟大的作家之一”，结合空格前定冠词the可知，提示词用最高级greatest。故填greatest。 【43题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：作为世界上最伟大的作家之一，金尼在讲述现实生活中可能出现的人物的故事方面做得非常好。分析句子可知，空格处为限制性定语从句，修饰先行词people，指人，关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作主语，应使用关系代词who或者that引导该定语从句。故填who/that。 【44题详解】 考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：它真的很有趣，包括家庭乐趣和很多幽默。分析句子可知，include(包括)是句中谓语动词，与主语it之间是主动关系，根据句中并列谓语动词is可知，应使用一般现在时态，又因主语it是第三人称单数代词，所以谓语动词也应使用单数形式。综上，谓语应用一般现在时的主动语态，单数形式。故填includes。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：我发现自己读的时候总是笑。分析句子可知，提示词laugh作found后宾语myself的补足语，是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语myself之间是主动关系，所以应用现在分词，表示主动。故填laughing。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 假定你是校英语报记者李华，今天你校开展了地震应急疏散演练活动，请你就此次活动写一篇新闻报道，内容包括： 1．活动目的； 2．活动过程； 3．你的感受。 注意：1.词数80左右； 2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 参考词汇：地震应急疏散演练earthquake emergency evacuation drill _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】To make us students know about how to protect ourselves during an earthquake, our school organized an earthquake emergency evacuation drill today.

Therefore, he was left in the care of Mrs. Hill, an old lady who lived next door. His parents had raised the 12-year-old to be a good boy. He never got into trouble, though sometimes he wanted to do risky things. Mrs. Hill was asleep. Kevin sighed (叹息) and hoped something exciting would happen. Suddenly, a movement outside caught his eye. Mrs. Hill’s front window faced Mr. and Mrs. Green’s house across the street. The couple had both gone to work, so it was strange that someone was over there. Kevin stared at the man at their front door. Suddenly, the man jumped through an open window into the house. With his heart in his mouth, Kevin grabbed Mrs. Hill’s home phone and called the police. Thinking that the man might get away with whatever he wanted before the police arrived, Kevin decided to do something. He rushed out of Mrs. Hill’s house and crossed the street quickly. Grabbing a branch from a cut-down tree, he jumped in through the window. “Stop right there! You must leave right now!” he called out, holding the branch with both hands. The man froze for a second, but when he saw the skinny boy he breathed a sigh of relief. “Hey, kid, put that down. It was my home. My parents used to live here and my father’s watch was here,” he explained, trying to lift a floorboard. At that moment, the sounds of a police car echoed (回响) in the air. The man stood up in a panic, then ran through the house toward the window and jumped out. Kevin followed out and told the arriving police officers what had happened. They pursued and arrested the man. Kevin went back to Mrs. Hill’s house. Somehow he wasn’t sure he had done the right thing. “What if he has told the truth?” he thought to himself. The man’s words sounded pretty convincing. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150左右； (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: When Mr. and Mrs. Green got home, Kevin went to talk to them. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Kevin and Mr. Green took the watch they had found to the police station. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: When Mr. and Mrs. Green got home, Kevin went to talk to them. He explained how he had witnessed the strange man entering their house and how he was arrested. Mr. and Mrs. Green listened attentively, with a mixture of surprise and gratitude on their faces. Mrs. Green hugged Kevin, thanking him for his bravery. Mr. Green, however, looked thoughtful. He asked Kevin to describe the man in detail and then revealed that the man was indeed his younger brother, who had come to retrieve a watch their father had left behind. Kevin's eyes widened in shock. Kevin and Mr. Green took the watch they had found to the police station. On the way, Mr. Green explained that the watch was a family heirloom, passed down from generation to generation. At the police station, they explained the situation to the officers, who were surprised but understanding. The man, who had been released after his identity was verified, was waiting outside. He smiled weakly at Kevin, who felt a mix of embarrassment and relief. Mr. Green handed over the watch to his brother with a pat on the back, and they all agreed to keep in touch. Kevin learned an important lesson that day: always verify the facts before taking action, but never hesitate to help those in need. 【解析】 【导语】本文人物为线索展开，讲述Kevin在父母不在家时，看到一男子闯入格林夫妇家，他报警并阻止男子，男子被捕后他怀疑自己是否做对。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当格林夫妇回到家时，凯文去和他们交谈。”可知，第一段可描述Kevin向格林夫妇解释他所做的事情，以及格林夫妇的反应和真相的揭露。 ②由第二段首句内容“凯文和格林先生带着他们找到的手表去了警察局。”可知，第二段可描述第二段可描写Kevin和Mr. Green去警察局解释情况，以及事情解决后他们的感受和Kevin学到的教训。 2. 续写线索：Kevin向Green夫妇解释——Green夫妇的反应——真相揭露——Kevin和Green去警察局——事情解决——Kevin的感受和教训 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①进入：enter/embark on ②拥抱：hug/embrace ③找回：retrieve/restore ④核实：verify/confirm 情绪类 ①吃惊：surprise/astonishment ②感激：gratitude/appreciation ③宽慰：relief/comfort 【点睛】[高分句型1]Mrs. Green hugged Kevin, thanking him for his bravery.

Here are some of these famous spots that are essential to understand the city’s complicated past. Eiffel Tower Presented as part of the 1889 World Exposition in Paris, the Eiffel Tower has become the city’s most famous attraction. It is accessible on Line 6 or Line 8 of the Paris Metro by Bir-Hakeim or Trocadéro stations. If possible, avoid visiting this spot at peak hours (10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.) or on weekends, so you can make the most of your visit to enjoy the views from the top. The best moments are right after it first opens on weekdays. Notre-Dame Cathedral Dating back to the 12th century, the Notre-Dame Cathedral has long towered alongside the banks of the Seine River. With its complicated Gothic (哥特式的) architectural details, it represents Parisian religion and architecture. Unfortunately, a fire broke out on April 15, 2019, destroying part of it. Visitors are not allowed to enter now. Louvre Museum Louvre Museum is one of the most famous art museums in the world where you can witness the city’s rich painting history from the medieval (中世纪的) period to the present. It is easily accessible on Line 1 from the Palais Royal-Musée du Louvre station. It is closed on Tuesdays as well as January 1, May 1, and December 25 each year. Arc de Triomphe The Arc de Triomphe serves as a national symbol of France, which was built by Napoleon I in celebration of the victory at the Battle of Austerlitz. Take Line 1, 2, or 6 to Charles de Gaulle-Etoile station and you will see the Arc de Triomphe. Visitors can purchase tickets for a tour to the top to enjoy the views of the city. 1. Which is the best time to visit Eiffel Tower? A. At 2:00 p.m., Sunday. B. At 9:00 a.m., Monday. C. At 11:00 a.m., Tuesday. D. At 10:00 a.m., Saturday. 2. Where should visitors go if they are interested in art history? A. Eiffel Tower. B. Louvre Museum. C. Arc de Triomphe. D. Notre-Dame Cathedral. 3. What can be inferred from the listed attractions? A. They require tickets for a tour. B. They are easily accessible by subway. C. They allow visitors to enter on holidays. D. They are spots to show the history of Paris. B On a sunny morning in 2001, Jim, a skilled diver and ocean lover, was diving as usual around Palm Beach in the Bahamas when he spotted a giant tiger shark circling a few feet away. The shark, which he later named Emma, was clearly struggling in pain. Seeing Jim, Emma swam close to him seemingly quite on purpose. With great fear and curiosity, Jim checked and found a fishing hook in Emma’s mouth. Despite the obvious risks, he managed to pull the hook out, careful not to cause any further injury to the animal. Jim has since removed four other hooks from Emma’s mouth on several occasions and sometimes freed her from fishing lines or plastic bags. The two have become inseparable. Every time Jim goes into the water in the area of Palm Beach, Emma comes around and rubs her head against him as a sign of affection (喜爱). It’s not the kind of behavior most people would expect from tiger sharks, which could easily tear a person apart. “When you suddenly come across a huge shark, it seems like it might end your life,” Jim said. “What makes Emma so special is that she’s so loving and affectionate. She’s not a mindless killer but a sentient (有感情的) animal just like cats and dogs.” Emma will always recognize Jim every time he dives in her area even if he changes diving equipment. Over time, she has learned his hand signals — an invitation to get her head rubbed and Jim claims that she started acting like a playful dog who loves being petted. “What makes Emma so special is that she’s so loving and affectionate. She’s not a mindless killer but a sentient (有感情的) animal just like cats and dogs.” Jim said. “To have a connection that lasts the entire time you`re in the water is so moving and so influential. One of the best things that have happened to me is the discovery of the affectionate aspect of this tiger shark.” 4. What might be the reason why Emma approached Jim initially? A. To greet him. B. To seek assistance. C. To ask for food. D. To make friends with him. 5. What makes Emma unique according to Jim? A. Her enormous body. B. Her feeding ability. C. Her high research value. D. Her pet-like character. 6. What can we learn from the text? A. Emma can read Jim`s sign language. B. Emma has never attacked human beings. C. Jim once saved Emma from a deadly disease. D. Jim has removed four hooks from Emma`s mouth. 7. Which can be the best title for the text? A. A Diver and His Odd Friend B. An Exciting Diving Experience C. Jim: A Person Devoted to Ocean Protection D. Palm Beach: An Ideal Base for Shark Watching C At the start of every working week, millions of people around the world get ready for something they do endlessly, joylessly and badly: a meeting. The reason is simple, says Madeleine de Hauke, a meeting coach and teacher in an Antwerp Management School. “We spend our lives and huge amounts of money on meetings, but there’s very little work that helps people run them effectively.” Madeleine is correct. Running a meeting well takes skill. People need to know ahead why they are meeting, what they are supposed to achieve, who really needs to be there and how they should contribute. That sounds obvious but it is not, as anyone who has been to a pointless meeting knows. Yet meeting leaders are expected to learn all this on the job. I cannot remember ever being taught how to organize a meeting, and I have rarely had a job requiring me to do it. I also like Madeleine’s descriptions of what she calls the Meeting Monsters: people who destroy meetings with all sorts of annoying behaviors. There is the unkind off-topic speaker. The non-stop noise in the background. The confusing rambler whose speech is endless. The rude multi-tasker. The one who says nothing but emails later to say what was decided will never work. The trouble is, we are all meeting monsters sometimes, says Madeleine. A good meeting leader knows how to stop this behavior, or make sure it never starts by making it clear what will and won’t be allowed. A bad meeting is like a virus (病毒). By failing to produce good decisions it often requires another meeting to be held, then another and another. Luckily there is no need for a vaccine (疫苗), just a bit more care and preparation, and an understanding that there is no shame in being taught how to lead a meeting well. 8. What cause bad meetings according to the author? A. Boring meeting activities. B. Untrained meeting leaders. C. Careless meeting coaches. D. Unreasonable meeting schedules. 9. Which is a typical behavior of a “Meeting Monster”? A. Never stopping his chatter. B. Scaring meeting attendees. C. Always raising questions. D. Refusing to finish his tasks. 10. Why does the author say “a bad meeting is like a virus”? A. It makes the attendees sick. B. It fails to produce decisions. C. It results in more meetings. D. It requires care and preparation. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Spend More for Meeting Attendees B. Get Ready for Bad Meetings C. Start the Week with a Meeting D. Kill the Meeting Monsters D A novel design approach to gardening has been gaining in popularity worldwide. Referred to as matrix planting, this approach aims for nature to do a lot more of the heavy lifting in the garden, and even some of the designing. Eschewing fertilizers (化肥) and power tools, it’s based on an elegantly simple principle: to garden more like nature does. The concept was born when German city planners sought to plant large areas of parkland after World War II in a reproducible way that would need minimal maintenance. Planners created planting mixes that could be used modularly (模块化). In a matrix garden, plants with similar cultural needs are grouped so that they will grow together above and below ground, forming a cooperative ecosystem that conserves water and discourages weeds. Dutch plantsman and designer Piet Oudolf’s gardens popularized this style, adding artistic flavors to the planting mixes while playing with color and form, including four-season interest and serving the needs of wildlife. Beautiful year-round, they invite you to enjoy the smallest detail, from the sound of grasses in the gentle wind to the sculpture of odd-looking seed heads. It takes a lot of thought to look this natural. While matrix gardens appear wild, they are carefully planned, with cultural needs the first consideration. Led by the concept of “right plant, right place,” they match plants that enjoy the same soil, sun and weather conditions, and arrange them according to their patterns of growth. The benefits are substantial for both gardener and planet. With human inputs dramatically reduced, the garden’s ecology can develop well. Established matrix gardens should not need the life support we give most gardens: fertilizer, dividing, regular watering. Compared to traditional garden plots, they increase carbon absorption, reduce stormwater runoff and boost habitat and biodiversity significantly. 12. What does the underlined word “Eschewing” in the first paragraph mean? A. Running out of. B. Keeping away from. C. Putting up with. D. Taking advantage of. 13. Why was the idea of matrix planting introduced? A. To control weeds in large gardens. B. To bring in foreign species of plants. C. To conserve soil and water resources. D. To develop low-maintenance parkland. 14. Which of the following best describes Piet Oudolf’s gardens? A. Traditional. B. Odd-looking. C. Tasteful. D. Well-protected. 15. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. The future of gardening is WILD. B. Nature treats all lives as EQUALS. C. Matrix gardens need more CARE. D. Old garden plots work WONDERS. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分;满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everybody needs a hobby.

His mother was at work, and his father had been away on business. Therefore, he was left in the care of Mrs. Hill, an old lady who lived next door. His parents had raised the 12-year-old to be a good boy. He never got into trouble, though sometimes he wanted to do risky things. Mrs. Hill was asleep. Kevin sighed (叹息) and hoped something exciting would happen. Suddenly, a movement outside caught his eye. Mrs. Hill’s front window faced Mr. and Mrs. Green’s house across the street. The couple had both gone to work, so it was strange that someone was over there. Kevin stared at the man at their front door. Suddenly, the man jumped through an open window into the house. With his heart in his mouth, Kevin grabbed Mrs. Hill’s home phone and called the police. Thinking that the man might get away with whatever he wanted before the police arrived, Kevin decided to do something. He rushed out of Mrs. Hill’s house and crossed the street quickly. Grabbing a branch from a cut-down tree, he jumped in through the window. “Stop right there! You must leave right now!” he called out, holding the branch with both hands. The man froze for a second, but when he saw the skinny boy he breathed a sigh of relief. “Hey, kid, put that down. It was my home. My parents used to live here and my father’s watch was here,” he explained, trying to lift a floorboard. At that moment, the sounds of a police car echoed (回响) in the air. The man stood up in a panic, then ran through the house toward the window and jumped out. Kevin followed out and told the arriving police officers what had happened. They pursued and arrested the man. Kevin went back to Mrs. Hill’s house. Somehow he wasn’t sure he had done the right thing. “What if he has told the truth?” he thought to himself. The man’s words sounded pretty convincing. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150左右； (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: When Mr. and Mrs. Green got home, Kevin went to talk to them. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Kevin and Mr. Green took the watch they had found to the police station. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
