A. borrow, lended B. borrow, lent C. lend, borrowed 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——打扰一下，我能借一下你的笔吗？——对不起，我昨天借给Lisa了。 考查动词辨析。borrow借进来；lend借出，过去式是lent，故排除A；根据“Excuse me, can I…your pen?”可知，第一个空表示从别人那里借入钢笔，用borrow；再根据“Sorry, I…it to Lisa yesterday.”可知，第二个空表示“钢笔借出去给Lisa了”，因此用lend，时间状语是“yesterday”，因此用其过去式“lent”。故选B。 3. —What did your father say just now? —He told us not to wake him up while he ________. A. was sleeping B. was slept C. is sleeping 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你父亲刚才说什么了？ ——他告诉我们不要在他睡觉的时候叫醒他。 考查过去进行时。根据“He told us not to wake him up”和“while”可知，此句是while引导的时间状语从句，主语用一般过去时，从句应用过去进行时，指在睡觉期间别叫醒他，其结构为was/were doing，主语为he，be动词用was，sleep的现在分词为sleeping。故选A。 4. —I don’t want my parents to ________ me with others. —I can’t agree with you more Everyone is different.

Cheering 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：当你处于人生的低谷时，想办法继续前进。为了让你振作起来，为什么不亲近大自然，想想快乐的时刻呢？ 考查非谓语动词。Cheer振作，动词原形；To cheer为了振作，动词不定式；Cheering振作，现在分词。根据“…you up, why not get close to nature and think about happy moments?”可知，亲近大自然，想想快乐的时刻是为了让你振作起来，所以应用动词不定式作目的状语，故选B。 9.

My mother was a dancer and I wanted nothing more than to be like her, but after making mistakes during my first class, I felt like I wanted to give up right away. As it was only my first day, however, I told my mom I couldn’t wait to dance again. Weeks passed and my dancing didn’t get any better. Then my dance teacher announced (宣布) that we were going to perform in a show. Even though I practiced hard for the show, I never quite got the hang of it. Finally, I went to my mom to tell her how I felt. She told me she would teach me all she knew about ballet. My mom quickly discovered how bad at ballet I was, but she still taught me with the greatest patience, love and understanding. By the time the show arrived, I was as prepared as I could be. The music began and my heart started to race. Breathing calmly (平静地), I began moving to the music without missing a step. When the music stopped, I ran off the stage (舞台) and laughed in excitement. My mom found me and gave me a huge hug, telling me how proud she was. I looked my mom in the eye and told her that there was no way this could have happened without her. Through this, I realized one important fact: My mom will always be there to catch me if I fall. Twenty years has passed, I am an excellent ballet dancer now. Thinking back to that period of time, I’m really thankful to my mom. 根据短文内容判断正误。（注意：考生将答题卡相应位置涂黑。正确的涂“A”，错误的涂“B”） 26.

They made smartphones and many other cool gadgets (电子装置). One day, Xiaomi decided to do something big and different. They created their very first electric car, called the SU7, and started selling it to people. The boss of Xiaomi, a man named Lei Jun, told everyone that this new car would cost 215,900 yuan (almost $30,000), undercutting Tesla’s Model 3, which begins at 245,900 yuan. It was a big event, and people were very excited. In just 27 minutes, more than 50,000 people ordered the new car. Now, Xiaomi isn’t the only company making electric cars. There are other big names like Tesla and BYD. Tesla is a car made in America, and it’s known for being fast and modern. But Xiaomi’s car, the SU7, can go really far—at least 700 kilometers on one charge (充电)! That’s more than the Tesla Model 3, which can only go 567 kilometers. At the same time, Xiaomi is thinking about how their customers use their phones and computers. They made the SU7’s brain (operating system操作系统) work like the ones in Xiaomi’s phones and laptops (台式电脑). This way, people can get everything connected and easy to use. Xiaomi has big dreams for their electric car business, but no one knows yet whether they will succeed. Some analysts (分析师) think that Xiaomi’s big idea will help make electric cars better and more exciting for everyone. So, what do you think? Will Xiaom’s SU7 develop faster than Tesla and become the king of electric cars? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure: the world of electric cars just got a lot more interesting. 31. What kind of products did Xiaomi use to make? A. Electric cars. B. Home robots. C. Smartphones. 32. The underline word “undercutting” probably means “________”. A. Selling at a higher price B. Selling at a lower price C. Copy the design 33. What’s the main focus of the second paragraph? A. It compares the SU7 and Tesla Model 3 in range (续航距离) and smart features. B. It introduces Xiaomi’s history as a smartphone company. C. It explains why BYD is better than Tesla. 34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The Tesla Model 3 has a longer driving range than the Xiaomi SU 7. B. Over 50,000 people ordered the SU 7 in less than 30 minutes. C. The Xiaomi SU 7’s operating system is designed to work differently from Xiaomi’s smartphones and laptops. 35. What’s the best title for this passage? A. Tesla’s New Operating Systerm. B. Electric Cars Make Our Life Easier. C. Xiaomi Challenges Tesla with its SU7. 【答案】31. C 32. B 33. A 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了小米公司创造了电动汽车SU7，并与特斯拉Model 3作比较的相关信息。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They made smartphones and many other cool gadgets”可知，小米过去制造智能手机和其它电子装置。故选C。 【32题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“that this new car would cost 215,900 yuan (almost $30,000),  undercutting Tesla’s Model 3, which begins at 245,900 yuan. ”可知，此处指小米SU7售价215,900元，特斯拉Model 3开始的售价为245,900元，此处应指小米这款车首发价低于特斯拉，则划线部分意思应与选项B“以较低价格出售”相近。故选B。 【33题详解】 段落大意题。根据“But Xiaomi’s car, the SU7, can go really far—at least 700 kilometers on one charge”及“This way, people can get everything connected and easy to use.”可知，第二段主要比较了SU7和特斯拉Model 3续航里程和智能功能。故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“It was a big event, and people were very excited.

B I’ll always remember the first time I tried ballet (芭蕾) when I was only six years old. My mother was a dancer and I wanted nothing more than to be like her, but after making mistakes during my first class, I felt like I wanted to give up right away. As it was only my first day, however, I told my mom I couldn’t wait to dance again. Weeks passed and my dancing didn’t get any better. Then my dance teacher announced (宣布) that we were going to perform in a show. Even though I practiced hard for the show, I never quite got the hang of it. Finally, I went to my mom to tell her how I felt. She told me she would teach me all she knew about ballet. My mom quickly discovered how bad at ballet I was, but she still taught me with the greatest patience, love and understanding. By the time the show arrived, I was as prepared as I could be. The music began and my heart started to race. Breathing calmly (平静地), I began moving to the music without missing a step. When the music stopped, I ran off the stage (舞台) and laughed in excitement. My mom found me and gave me a huge hug, telling me how proud she was. I looked my mom in the eye and told her that there was no way this could have happened without her. Through this, I realized one important fact: My mom will always be there to catch me if I fall. Twenty years has passed, I am an excellent ballet dancer now. Thinking back to that period of time, I’m really thankful to my mom. 根据短文内容判断正误。（注意：考生将答题卡相应位置涂黑。正确的涂“A”，错误的涂“B”） 26.

They made smartphones and many other cool gadgets (电子装置). One day, Xiaomi decided to do something big and different. They created their very first electric car, called the SU7, and started selling it to people. The boss of Xiaomi, a man named Lei Jun, told everyone that this new car would cost 215,900 yuan (almost $30,000), undercutting Tesla’s Model 3, which begins at 245,900 yuan. It was a big event, and people were very excited. In just 27 minutes, more than 50,000 people ordered the new car. Now, Xiaomi isn’t the only company making electric cars. There are other big names like Tesla and BYD. Tesla is a car made in America, and it’s known for being fast and modern. But Xiaomi’s car, the SU7, can go really far—at least 700 kilometers on one charge (充电)! That’s more than the Tesla Model 3, which can only go 567 kilometers. At the same time, Xiaomi is thinking about how their customers use their phones and computers. They made the SU7’s brain (operating system操作系统) work like the ones in Xiaomi’s phones and laptops (台式电脑). This way, people can get everything connected and easy to use. Xiaomi has big dreams for their electric car business, but no one knows yet whether they will succeed. Some analysts (分析师) think that Xiaomi’s big idea will help make electric cars better and more exciting for everyone. So, what do you think? Will Xiaom’s SU7 develop faster than Tesla and become the king of electric cars? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure: the world of electric cars just got a lot more interesting. 31. What kind of products did Xiaomi use to make? A. Electric cars. B. Home robots. C. Smartphones. 32. The underline word “undercutting” probably means “________”. A. Selling at a higher price B. Selling at a lower price C. Copy the design 33. What’s the main focus of the second paragraph? A. It compares the SU7 and Tesla Model 3 in range (续航距离) and smart features. B. It introduces Xiaomi’s history as a smartphone company. C. It explains why BYD is better than Tesla. 34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The Tesla Model 3 has a longer driving range than the Xiaomi SU 7. B. Over 50,000 people ordered the SU 7 in less than 30 minutes. C. The Xiaomi SU 7’s operating system is designed to work differently from Xiaomi’s smartphones and laptops. 35. What’s the best title for this passage? A. Tesla’s New Operating Systerm. B. Electric Cars Make Our Life Easier. C. Xiaomi Challenges Tesla with its SU7. D Being lazy is the most usual thing in the world. It has become the biggest enemy (敌人) in front of us and “giving up” usually happens to us. ___36___ The following ways are very useful. ___37___ Remember, laziness is powerful. That’s because you are used to the way that things are going, and even if you want to change, it’s difficult. So don’t try to conquer (克服) the world in the beginning. Just conquer some small things which you can achieve. As the saying goes, “Well begun is half done.” Take action (行动) at once. Then you will make progress little by little. Please remember “___38___” Be confident (信心) and keep doing it no matter what happens. You’ll meet difficulties and fall down. Just get up and keep going. ___39___ It doesn’t matter, just keep going. Learn from your mistakes and keep going. Then you can beat laziness and get successful.
