1. —Is Doctor Wang ________ ORBIS doctor?
—No, he is ________ UNICEF volunteer. But he sometimes works with ORBIS.
A. /; an B. an; a C. a; an D. a; a
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——王医生是奥比斯的医生吗?——不,他是联合国儿童基金会的志愿者。但他有时也和奥比斯一起工作。
考查冠词的用法。不定冠词a/an,意为“一”,表示泛指,a用于辅音音素前,an用于元音音素前;/表示不填,零冠词。分析题干可知,这两个空都表示泛指,应该填不定冠词a或an,第一空后的ORBIS 以元音音素开头,所以第一空应填an;第二空后的UNICEF以辅音音素开头,所以第二空填a。故选B。
2. The winner of the match will have a ________ to take photos with the super football star.
A. change B. check C. chance D. course
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:比赛的获胜者将有机会与这位超级足球明星合影。
考查名词辨析。change改变;check核查;chance机会;course课程。根据“to take photos with the super football star”可知是有机会跟超级足球明星合影。故选C。
3. —Jiangsu is ________ thirteen big cities. It’s a good place to visit.
—Exactly. I have been there several times.
A. made up of B. made of C. made from D. made out of
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——江苏由13个大城市组成。这是一个游览的好地方。——完全正确。我去过那里好几次了。
考查动词短语。made up of由……组成;made of由……制成(看得见原材料);made from由……做成,看不见原材料;made out of由……制成。根据“Jiangsu is…thirteen big cities.”可知,此处描述江苏作为整体由多个城市构成,强调组成部分,故用“made up of”。故选A。
4. —Uncle Wang, let me help you carry the heavy box.
—Thank you, Jack. It’s very nice ________ you ________ me.
A. of; helping B. of; to help
C. for; to help D. for; helping
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——王叔叔,让我来帮你搬运这个重箱子。——谢谢你,杰克。你能帮助我真是太好了。It's + adj.+(of/for)sb. to do sth.译作“(某人)做某事是…的”,是一个固定句型。当形容词是修饰人的形容词,即sb.和adj.有主系表关系时,sb.前使用of;而当形容词不是用来修饰人,而是修饰后面的动词不定式,也就是说做某事怎么样,sb.前用for。结合句子来看,真正的主语是you,而且nice指品质,故第一个空需要填of,后边一个空需要填动词不定式,所以答案选B。
【点睛】在“It is + adj. + for sb. to do sth."与"It is + adj. + of sb. to do sth."两个句型中,介词用for还是of应根据作表语的形容词的词义特点和说话人的侧重而定。当形容词是说明不定式的特性时,要用介词for,也就是说不定式(短语)与形容词在逻辑上存在“主语和表语”的关系。例如:It's important for us to stay healthy. 保持身体健康对我们来说很重要。(本句子中的important说明的是to stay healthy的特性,即句子侧重的是说“To stay healthy is important.”)
注意:与介词for搭配的往往是表示事物的特性的形容词,如important, necessary, difficult, easy, hard, possible等。
当形容词是说明不定式的逻辑主语的特性时,要用of,也就是说不定式的逻辑主语sb.和形容词在逻辑上存在“主语和表语”的关系。例如:It's kind of you to help me.你帮助我真是太好了。(句中的kind是用来说明you的特征,即句子侧重说得是“You are kind.”)
5. —What kind of bicycle should I choose?
—It ________ what you want to use it for.
A. turns on B. carries on C. puts on D. depends on
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我该选哪种自行车?——这取决于你想用它做什么。
考查动词短语。turns on打开;carries on继续;puts on穿上;depends on取决于。根据“What kind of bicycle should I choose?”可知,选择哪一辆自行车,要取决于用自行车来干什么。故选D。
6. For the present, I can’t afford ________ a car. So I need to work hard.
A. to buy B. buy C. buying D. for buying
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:目前,我买不起车。所以我需要努力工作。
考查非谓语动词。to buy买,动词不定式;buy买,动词原形;buying买,动名词或现在分词;for buying买,介词短语。根据句意可知,这里考查的是固定搭配can’t afford to do sth.,意为“负担不起做某事”,所以应该用动词不定式to buy。故选A。
7. —Must I bring my student card to renew these two books?
—No, you ________. You must bring your library card.
A. can’t B. may not C. don’t have to D. mustn’t
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我必须带学生证来续借这两本书吗?——不,你不必。你必须带借书证。
考查情态动词辨析。can’t不能;may not可能不;don’t have to不必;mustn’t禁止。根据“You must bring your library card.”可知,不必带学生证,而是必须带借书证,此处是对must引导的一般疑问句的否定回答,应用don’t have to。故选C。
8. —Sandy, how long have you had the iphone 14 pro?
—________ a couple of days ago. I ________ it last week.
A. For; bought B. For; have bought C. Since; bought D. Since; have bought
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——Sandy,你用iphone 14 pro多久了?——从几天前开始。我上周买的。
考查介词辨析和一般过去时。“for+一段时间”表示“持续了多久”;“since+一段时间+ago”表示“从多久前开始”。根据第一空后的“a couple of days ago”可知, 第一空应选Since;根据“last week”可知,此处在叙述过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时,所以第二空应选bought。故选C。
9. Mr Teng used to ________ to work, but now he is used to ________ to work by bike.
A. drive; go B. driving; go C. drive; going D. driving; going
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:邓先生过去开车上班,但现在他习惯骑自行车去上班。
考查动词短语。used to do过去常常做某事;be used to doing习惯做某事;be used to do被用来做某事。根据“Mr Teng used to...to work, but now he is used to...to work by bike.”可知,此处第一空是指过去常常开车,第二空是指现在习惯骑自行车。故选C。
10. —I think everyone can do something to make a difference to the Earth.
— . If we work together, we can make the world a better place.
A. Practice makes perfect B. No pain, no gain
C. Many hands make light work D. Every dog has its day
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我认为每个人都可以做一些事情来改变地球。——人多好办事。如果我们一起努力,我们可以让世界变得更美好。
考查谚语辨析。Practice makes perfect熟能生巧;No pain, no gain没有付出,就没有收获;Many hands make light work人多好办事;Every dog has its day每个人都有走运的一天。根据下文“If we work together, we can make the world a better place如果我们一起努力,我们可以让世界变得更美好”,可知人多力量大,Many hands make light work符合句意,故选C。

I walked away from shore and was glad to find a clear spring. Then I cut myself a strong stick to protect myself and climbed a tree. There I slept the first night in my new home.
The morning came clearly. I felt surprisingly energetic after a night in a tree. I went to shore, where I found out that the storm had driven the broken ship from the sandbar (沙洲) . The waves had set it on the rocks within a mile off shore.
I also found the boat that we had struck out in. A fast-flowing inlet (入口) lay between me and the boat. I decided to deal with the broken ship first because it held more useful items (物品) .
The tide (潮汐) crept out (缓缓退去) farther and farther until I could walk upon sand to within a quarter mile of the ship. I realized all of us would have survived the storm if we’d only stayed with the ship.
I cried at the thought of how easily I could be sharing this adventure with a group. But this was no time for tears. I dried my face and took off my clothes so I could swim to the ship.
Once I reached it, I swam around looking for a way to get planks (木板) . I noticed a hanging bit of rope and used it to climb the side. I found the ship’s food was free of water. I filled my mouth with biscuits. Now I only needed a boat to get the food to shore.
I collected boards and bits of sail (钉子). I tied the sails together before keeping them overboard. Then I put the boards together into a raft (木筏) . I laid more aboard across my raft so that anything I put on it would be safe from the water.

What subject do you worry about most at school? Many students worry about math. Some students can’t sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very worried during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful (有压力的).
“For people who worry about math, posture (姿势) makes a big difference,” Erik Peper from San Francisco State University told the Daily Mail. That’s right—sitting up straight can help you do better in math exams.
Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a math test while sitting in a slumped-over (趴倒的) position, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.
Students who were not worried about taking the math exam did not do better from better posture. But they did find that it was more difficult to do math while slumping over, Science Daily reported.
Good posture isn’t just helpful for taking math exams. Runners, musicians and public speakers can all benefit (获益) from better posture. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more positive and focus (集中) better.
38. How many students found it easier to do the math test when sitting straight?
A. 125. B. 70. C. 56. D. 60.
39. What is the structure (结构) of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
40. Paragraph 3 tells us sitting up straight can help us do better in math exams by ________.
A. giving examples B. presenting numbers
C. introducing a science study D. giving reasons
【答案】38. B 39. A 40. C
【解析】

Mr. Clarke hated to do housework. He wouldn’t like to stay at home on weekends, as his wife always asked him to do some washing or cleaning, or he had to cook for his family. He always made some excuses to go out on Saturday mornings.
Recently Mr. Clarke was interested in playing chess. He was afraid that his wife would know that, so every Sunday afternoon he brought some fish home. It made his wife happy. She believed him and never asked where he spent his weekends.

As soon as the shopkeeper saw him, the man said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Clarke, I have no fish today.

I walked away from shore and was glad to find a clear spring. Then I cut myself a strong stick to protect myself and climbed a tree. There I slept the first night in my new home.
The morning came clearly. I felt surprisingly energetic after a night in a tree. I went to shore, where I found out that the storm had driven the broken ship from the sandbar (沙洲) . The waves had set it on the rocks within a mile off shore.
I also found the boat that we had struck out in. A fast-flowing inlet (入口) lay between me and the boat. I decided to deal with the broken ship first because it held more useful items (物品) .
The tide (潮汐) crept out (缓缓退去) farther and farther until I could walk upon sand to within a quarter mile of the ship. I realized all of us would have survived the storm if we’d only stayed with the ship.
I cried at the thought of how easily I could be sharing this adventure with a group. But this was no time for tears. I dried my face and took off my clothes so I could swim to the ship.
Once I reached it, I swam around looking for a way to get planks (木板) . I noticed a hanging bit of rope and used it to climb the side. I found the ship’s food was free of water. I filled my mouth with biscuits. Now I only needed a boat to get the food to shore.
I collected boards and bits of sail (钉子). I tied the sails together before keeping them overboard. Then I put the boards together into a raft (木筏) . I laid more aboard across my raft so that anything I put on it would be safe from the water.

What subject do you worry about most at school? Many students worry about math. Some students can’t sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very worried during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful (有压力的).
“For people who worry about math, posture (姿势) makes a big difference,” Erik Peper from San Francisco State University told the Daily Mail. That’s right—sitting up straight can help you do better in math exams.
Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a math test while sitting in a slumped-over (趴倒的) position, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.
Students who were not worried about taking the math exam did not do better from better posture. But they did find that it was more difficult to do math while slumping over, Science Daily reported.
Good posture isn’t just helpful for taking math exams. Runners, musicians and public speakers can all benefit (获益) from better posture. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more positive and focus (集中) better.
38. How many students found it easier to do the math test when sitting straight?
A. 125. B. 70. C. 56. D. 60.
39. What is the structure (结构) of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
40. Paragraph 3 tells us sitting up straight can help us do better in math exams by ________.
A. giving examples B. presenting numbers
C. introducing a science study D. giving reasons

Every year, the Touching China Award recognizes (认可) people who have made significant contributions (贡献) to society through their work and actions. This year, a group of retired (退休的) professionals in China won the award for their efforts in sharing knowledge through short videos.
There are former teachers, scientists and engineers in the group. They created videos on a range of topics, such as literature and science.
Wu Yuren, for example, is a retired physics teacher. She became known as “Grandma Wu” on social media because her experiments were humorous and easy. “I made these videos to arouse (引发) young people’s curiosity about daily life and use everyday tools to experience the wonder of science,” Wu told People’s Daily. Wu is in her 70s but still writes her scripts (脚本) and looks for help from other teachers.
Another award winner is Wang Pinxian. He is an 87-year-old marine geologist (海洋地质学家) and teacher at Tongji University’ School of Ocean and Earth Science. Over the past two years, Wang has used his videos to share his knowledge of the ocean with viewers. He looks at things like the secrets of the Bermuda Triangle (百慕大三角) and whether sea monsters really exist.
The popularity of these videos has been well-tested. Thousands of viewers have watched and shared the group’s content. Many followers expressed their thanks for the opportunity to learn new things and stay in touch with the world around them.
