【详解】句意:——这是一块精确的表。——噢,是的。这块表有大约100年的历史了。
考查冠词。不定冠词a,an,表示“一”,但并不强调数量,用来表示不特定的人或事物,表泛指,a用于辅音音素开头的词前,an用于元音音素开头的词前;定冠词the,表示“这,那”,表特指,特指上文已提到的人或物。上文中的“exact watch”是泛指,且“exact”是以元音音素开头的单词,用an修饰,答语中的“watch”是特指上文已提到的,用the修饰。故选B。

A. rushes B. adds C. rises D. raises
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:这些日子,蔬菜的价格上涨得如此快。

【答案】C
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】句意:风轻轻地吹着,我们感到很高兴。

5. —I think the Water Park is a good place ________ fun.
—I agree with you.
A. have B. having C. to have D. had
【答案】C

A. stop working B. to stop to work C. to stop working D. stop to work
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:是时候停止工作了,爸爸。现在是深夜。

--Why not have your cousin_______ it for you?

【解析】
【详解】试题分析:句意:——我有一封信要寄出去但是我太忙了。——为什么不让你的表弟为你做这件事呢?第一空是不定式作定语修饰letter. 当不定式修饰的名词刚好是不定式动作的对象时,不定式必须用主动形式,故第一空不能选posted。 第二空的考点为:have sb. do sth .意为" 让某人做某事" , 这是固定搭配, 作宾补的不定式在动词have,let,make 等后不能带to。 故第二空要选do。故选A。
考点:考查非谓语动词的用法

A. amazed; amazed B. amazing; amazing
C. amazed; amazing D. amazing; amazed

考查形容词辨析:amazed意为“感到惊讶的” ,常用来形容人自身的感受,主语通常是人,这里“my parents”是人,所以第一空用“amazed” ,“be amazed at”表示“对……感到惊讶” ;amazing意为“令人惊奇的;惊人的” ,常用来修饰物,这里“grades”是物,所以第二空用“amazing” 。 故选C。

C. carefully; carefully D. careful; carefully
【答案】D

考查形容词和副词用法。careful认真的,形容词;carefully认真地,副词。第一空修饰名词girl,要用形容词作定语,所以用careful;第二空修饰动词do,要用副词作状语,所以用carefully。as + 形容词/副词原级 + as表示“和……一样……”。故选D。

【解析】
【详解】句意:简变得比以前勇敢多了。她现在能在公众场合表达自己了。
考查形容词比较级的用法。brave勇敢的;braver更勇敢的;lazy懒惰的;lazier更懒惰的。根据“than before”可知,这里是将简现在的状态和以前的状态进行比较,要用比较级形式。根据“She can express herself in public now.”可知,简是变得更勇敢了。故选B。

考查if引导的条件状语从句的“主将从现”以及if引导的宾语从句。分析第一处可知,此处表示“如果”,时间状语是this Saturday表将来,所以应满足if引导的条件状语从句的“主将从现”,此处使用一般现在时,排除C和D。分析第二处可知,此处表示“是否”,是if引导的宾语从句,主句是一般现在时,所以应满足“主现从不限”原则,又因为时间状语是this Saturday表将来,所以使用一般将来时。故选A。

A. fixed B. to fix C. fixing D. fix

【详解】句意:我的电脑屏幕出问题了,所以我昨天让人修了它。
考查动词非谓语形式。根据“My computer had something wrong with its screen, so I got it...yesterday.”可知,我的电脑屏幕出问题了,所以是让它被修理。get sth done表示“使某事被做”,done是过去分词,作宾语补足语。所以此空用过去分词,fix的过去分词是fixed。故选A。

V.阅读理解(每小题2分,共30分)
A
Most parents love the Internet and want their kids to use it. But a new survey in America finds many parents are also afraid of the online world. They worry that their kids will get in trouble with people they meet online.
The study was done online from May 5 to May 10 by Insight Research Group. It says 80% of parents are worried about kids meeting bad people online. That’s because young people who largely have grown up with the Net think of it as a way of showing personal feelings. To young people, the benefits of giving out some personal information to online friends outweigh (大于) the risks. And, the study shows they are so comfortable with the Internet that 78% of them have a personal website or blog.
Parents also realize the importance of the Internet. The survey shows 91% think the Net helps their children show their feelings, and 77% think the Internet is one of the most valuable education tools that children have. But 88% think it’s important to know what their kids are doing online. Findings show both parents and children need more education about using the Internet.

We sometimes say the lion is “the king of the forest” because it is stronger and more dangerous than the other animals. It can run faster than most other animals and it can hunt other beasts (兽类). It is said that the lion is the highest animal in the land food chain. In the sea, people say the shark is at the top of the food chain. It can swim faster than most of the other sea animals. It can also use its big teeth to catch other sea animals and eat them.
What is at the top of the world’s food chain? Human being! We are not the biggest or fastest, but we are the cleverest. We could not run faster than most animals, so we invented cars. We could not fight better than a lion, so we invented guns. Now we can hunt the beasts.
People’s inventions are clever, but they can be dangerous, too. For example, many years ago in Inner Mongolia, people used guns to kill a lot of wild wolves. The wild wolves usually eat sheep. But in recent years, the number of wild rabbits is becoming larger and larger because the number of wild wolves is getting smaller and smaller. The wild rabbits competed (竞争) for the grass with the sheep and the cows. Much of the grassland became desert because it was seriously destroyed (毁坏) by the wild rabbits.
Remember that we are a part of the food chain, so we are in danger, too! If we protect animals, we are protecting ourselves.
36. Which is at the top of the food chain in the sea?
A. The dolphin. B. Fish. C. Sea animals. D. The shark.
37. Why are people at the top of the world’s food chain?
A. Because they can use guns. B. Because they are the biggest.
C. Because they are the cleverest. D. Because they can drive cars.
38. In what way do we say people’s inventions can be sometimes dangerous?
A. They can kill a lot of wild wolves. B. They can destroy the food chain.
C. They can destroy the grassland. D. They can make wild rabbits grow bigger and bigger.
39. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A. Most of the sea animals can swim faster than the shark.
B. The lion is at the top of the land food chain.
C. People invented cars to go faster.
D. People’s inventions can be dangerous.

Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence (智力) and feelings.
In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.
The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a scientific report, IQ (智商) of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% below. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand (另一方面), can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).
Weather also has a strong influence on people’s feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18℃, people become stronger.
Low air pressure (气压) may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. There is “good weather” for health. People feel best at a temperature of about 18℃.
Are you feeling sad, tired, forgetful, or unhappy today? It may be the weather’s problem.
41. What kind of weather can have a bad effect (影响) on health?
A. Hot and wet weather. B. A strong wind.
C. Warm weather. D. Low air pressure.
42. When may people have more intelligence?
A. When a rain comes. B. When very hot weather comes.
C. When a strong wind comes. D. When low air pressure comes.
43. How may low air pressure make people feel?
A. Forgetful. B. Sad. C. Angry. D. Tired.
44. What will happen to people in “good weather” of 18℃?
A. People are very forgetful. B. People can’t do their work well.
C Thin people feel cold. D. People are in better health.
45. What does the writer want to tell us?
A. Hot and cold weather influences all people in the same way.
B. Weather influences people’s lives.
C. IQ changes when weather changes.
D. There is a good kind of weather for people’s work and health.

【答案】searching
【解析】
【详解】句意:为什么不考虑在网上搜索一些关于它的信息呢?根据“Why not consider…for something about it online?”以及汉语提示可知,此处表达“搜索”信息,search for“搜索,查找”,consider doing sth.“考虑做某事”,所以此处要用动词search的动名词形式。故填searching。
72. It’s pleasant of Lily ________ (收到) many gifts on her birthdays.
【答案】to receive
【解析】

73. When it comes to ________ (write), you’d better keep a diary.
【答案】writing
【解析】
【详解】句意:说到写作,你最好写日记。根据“When it comes to...”可知,“to”在此处为介词,介词后面通常接名词、代词或动名词形式。write“写”,动词,其动名词形式为writing。When it comes to doing sth.“当提到做某事时”。故填writing。
74. The traffic is terribly busy in the morning. You’d better avoid ________ (drive) in the center of the city.

Most parents love the Internet and want their kids to use it. But a new survey in America finds many parents are also afraid of the online world. They worry that their kids will get in trouble with people they meet online.
The study was done online from May 5 to May 10 by Insight Research Group. It says 80% of parents are worried about kids meeting bad people online. That’s because young people who largely have grown up with the Net think of it as a way of showing personal feelings. To young people the benefits of giving out some personal information to online friends outweigh (大于) the risks. And, the study shows they are so comfortable with the Internet that 78% of them have a personal website or blog.
Parents also realize the importance of the Internet.

We sometimes say the lion is “the king of the forest” because it is stronger and more dangerous than the other animals. It can run faster than most other animals and it can hunt other beasts (兽类). It is said that the lion is the highest animal in the land food chain. In the sea, people say the shark is at the top of the food chain. It can swim faster than most of the other sea animals. It can also use its big teeth to catch other sea animals and eat them.
What is at the top of the world’s food chain? Human being! We are not the biggest or fastest, but we are the cleverest. We could not run faster than most animals, so we invented cars. We could not fight better than a lion, so we invented guns. Now we can hunt the beasts.
People’s inventions are clever, but they can be dangerous, too. For example, many years ago in Inner Mongolia, people used guns to kill a lot of wild wolves. The wild wolves usually eat sheep. But in recent years, the number of wild rabbits is becoming larger and larger because the number of wild wolves is getting smaller and smaller. The wild rabbits competed (竞争) for the grass with the sheep and the cows. Much of the grassland became desert because it was seriously destroyed (毁坏) by the wild rabbits.
Remember that we are a part of the food chain, so we are in danger, too! If we protect animals, we are protecting ourselves.
36. Which is at the top of the food chain in the sea?
A. The dolphin. B. Fish. C. Sea animals. D. The shark.
37. Why are people at the top of the world’s food chain?
A. Because they can use guns. B. Because they are the biggest.
C. Because they are the cleverest. D. Because they can drive cars.
38. In what way do we say people’s inventions can be sometimes dangerous?
A. They can kill a lot of wild wolves. B. They can destroy the food chain.
C. They can destroy the grassland. D. They can make wild rabbits grow bigger and bigger.
39. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A. Most of the sea animals can swim faster than the shark.
B. The lion is at the top of the land food chain.
C. People invented cars to go faster.
D. People’s inventions can be dangerous.

Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence (智力) and feelings.
In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.
The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a scientific report, IQ (智商) of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% below. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand (另一方面), can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).
Weather also has a strong influence on people’s feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18℃, people become stronger.
Low air pressure (气压) may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. There is “good weather” for health. People feel best at a temperature of about 18℃.
Are you feeling sad, tired, forgetful, or unhappy today? It may be the weather’s problem.

C. Warm weather. D. Low air pressure.
42. When may people have more intelligence?

44. What will happen to people in “good weather” of 18℃?
A. People are very forgetful. B. People can’t do their work well.

45. What does the writer want to tell us?
