There are several reasons for a jumping eye. Let’s have a look at it! ②Tiredness is an important reason. Not getting enough sleep or working for too long without rest may cause our eyes to complain. Eyes should have a rest once in a while. Scientists aren’t sure why, but they’ve found that getting more rest will make our eyes feel better. Remember not to stay up late. ③Dry eyes can also lead to a jumping eye. More and more people work office jobs that require a lot of sitting and staring at a computer screen. If the windows are behind you, the light will reflect (反射) on the screen. If the windows are in front of you, the sun and the screen will both shine into your eyes. Too much light can injure your eyes. This unhealthy way of life can lead to dry eye syndrome (DES干眼症). When our eyes are too dry, they can’t help jumping to keep them wet. To stay away from DES, use eye drops if you use the computer for more than seven hours a day and make sure to look away from the screen once every 20 minutes. ④Stress is the number-one reason for a jumping eye. It does harm to our eyes if it lasts for too long. When we’re under a lot of stress, the body gives out stress hormones (荷尔蒙) which leads to a “fight or flight” response (回应). To solve the problem, we can see our friends or relax ourselves in order to reduce the stress that might lead to jumping eyes. 63. The underlined word “injure” means “________”. A. 保护 B. 影响 C. 伤害 D. 帮助 64. To keep away from DES, we should ________. A. work for too long without rest B. stop too much light from shining into our eyes C. use eye drops as often as possible D. look away from the screen once every half an hour 65. What is the structure of the passage? A. ①/②③/④ B. ①②/③/④ C. ①/②③④ D. ①②③/④ 【答案】63. C 64. B 65. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，围绕眼睛跳动这一现象展开，分别从疲劳、干眼症、压力三个方面详细阐述了导致眼睛跳动的原因。对于疲劳，强调要保证充足休息；针对干眼症，说明了不良工作环境导致其产生以及预防的方法；对于压力，解释了它如何影响眼睛并给出缓解压力的建议，旨在让读者了解眼睛跳动的原因及应对方法。 【63题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“Too much light can injure your eyes.”以及前文提到的不良光线情况可知，过多的光线对眼睛是有坏处的，所以“injure”意思是“伤害”，故选C。 【64题详解】 细节理解题。根据“To stay away from DES, use eye drops if you use the computer for more than seven hours a day and make sure to look away from the screen once every 20 minutes.”以及对造成DES原因的描述可知，为了远离DES，我们应该避免过多光线直射眼睛，故选B。 【65题详解】 篇章结构题。文章第一段总体引出话题，指出眼睛跳动有多种原因；第二、三、四段分别从疲劳、干眼症、压力这三个方面阐述眼睛跳动的原因，所以文章结构是①/②③④，故选C。 D (One day, Gulliver was caught in a storm and his ship hit a rock. He was washed to the beach. Then he walked to find a city but he was so tired that he fell asleep. When he woke up, he found himself in Lilliput and a lot of small people were around him.) The emperor and I spoke to each other but neither of us understood a single word. I tried many languages but no one could understand my words, not even the cleverest of the emperor’s followers. After about two hours, the emperor left with his wife, children and their servants. He ordered some strong guards (警卫) to stop the crowd of people hurting me. An officer told the guards to catch six men who made me angry. These men were given to me and I had to choose their punishment (惩罚). I put five of them in my pocket. Then I pretended (假装) to eat the sixth man. The poor man shouted terribly. The guards were worried when they saw my knife in my hand. But I only cut the binding (捆绑物) round his hands. Then I put him on his feet and let him go. I lifted the other five men out of my pocket and put them on the ground, too. The people and the guards were very happy with my great kindness. They told the emperor about it. The emperor ordered his men to make a bed for me and they had to join six hundred of their little beds together to make one bed for me. At the same time, the emperor asked all his advisers for their advice on how to deal with me. But they didn’t seem to know what to do. If they set me free, I might be dangerous. I was eating so much food that soon all the people would be very hungry. The farmers could not grow enough food to feed all of us. The wise men thought that they should kill me. But it was impossible for them to dig a hole big enough to bury (埋) me. My dead body would smell terrible. This might cause much illness all over the country. ——Adapted from Gulliver’s Travels 66. How did the emperor’s advisers feel when the emperor asked them for advice? A. Bored. B. Happy. C. Worried. D. Excited. 67. What’s the correct order of the following statements according to the story? ①Gulliver didn’t punish the six tiny people and let them go. ②The emperor ordered his men to make a big bed for Gulliver. ③The emperor spoke with Gulliver and they couldn’t understand each other. ④Gulliver’s ship was caught in a storm and hit a rock. ⑤A crowd of tiny people hurt Gulliver. A. ④⑤③①② B. ③⑤④①② C. ④⑤①②③ D. ③①④⑤② 68. What can we infer (推断) from this passage? A. The six men made Gulliver very happy. B. The angry people in Lilliput would kill the Emperor. C. It was difficult for the people in Lilliput to deal with Gulliver. D. Gulliver and the emperor could understand each other. 69. What’s the best title for this passage? A. Learning Languages in Lilliput. B. The Emperor’s Wrong Decisions. C. A Dangerous Storm and a New Home. D. Gulliver’s Early Experience in Lilliput. 【答案】66. C 67. A 68. C 69. D 【解析】 【导语】本文改编自《格列佛游记》，讲述了格列佛在一次海难中被冲到小人国（利立浦特）后所经历的一系列事件，包括与小人国皇帝的交流、对六个小人的处理以及小人国对如何处置格列佛的担忧。 【66题详解】 推理判断题。根据“At the same time, the emperor asked all his advisers for their advice on how to deal with me. But they didn’t seem to know what to do. If they set me free, I might be dangerous. I was eating so much food that soon all the people would be very hungry. The farmers could not grow enough food to feed all of us.”可知，当皇帝向他的谋士们征求意见时，谋士们不知该怎么处理格列佛的问题，他们感到非常担忧。故选C。 【67题详解】 推理判断题。根据“One day, Gulliver was caught in a storm and his ship hit a rock.”可知，格列佛的船遭遇了风暴并撞上了岩石，这是第一个事件，对应④；根据“When he woke up, he found himself in Lilliput and a lot of small people were around him.”“He ordered some strong guards (警卫) to stop the crowd of people hurting me.”可知，此前一群小人伤害了格列佛，这是第二个事件，对应⑤；根据“The emperor and I spoke to each other but neither of us understood a single word.”可知，皇帝与格列佛交谈，他们无法相互理解，这是第三个事件，对应③；根据“Then I put him on his feet and let him go. I lifted the other five men out of my pocket and put them on the ground, too.”可知，格列佛没有惩罚这六个小人，而是放走了他们，这是第四个事件，对应①；根据“The emperor ordered his men to make a bed for me and they had to join six hundred of their little beds together to make one bed for me.”可知，皇帝命令手下为格列佛做一张大床，这是第五个事件，对应②。正确的顺序是④⑤③①②。故选A。 【68题详解】 推理判断题。根据“At the same time, the emperor asked all his advisers for their advice on how to deal with me. But they didn’t seem to know what to do. If they set me free, I might be dangerous. I was eating so much food that soon all the people would be very hungry. The farmers could not grow enough food to feed all of us.”可知，小人国的人们对如何处置格列佛感到非常担忧，因为他们认为格列佛可能很危险，而且他吃得太多，会让所有人都挨饿。这表明小人国的人们很难处理格列佛的问题。故选C。 【69题详解】 最佳标题题。本文主要讲述了格列佛在小人国（利立浦特）的早期经历，包括与小人国皇帝的交流、对六个小人的处理以及小人国对如何处置格列佛的担忧等。因此，D选项“格列佛在小人国的早期经历”最能概括本文的主旨。故选D。 E Feeling hot? So is the earth. Because of problems like climate changes and bad ways of farming, much of the planet’s land is drying up. What can we do to solve this problem? One thing the United Nations did was to create a holiday. In 1994, the UN started World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought (世界防治荒漠化和干旱日), to let more people know about desertification. It is on June 17 every year. Desertification happens when healthy land—land full of water and nutrients (营养)—becomes deserts, which are dry and unhealthy. Every year, 20,000 to 50,000 square kilometers of the earth’s land is lost to desertification. In Africa, scientists expect that two thirds of Africa’s healthy land will be lost by 2025. Desertification sometimes happens because of the climate change, as big, fast changes in temperature can kill plants and trees. However, it also happens because people use land too much, and in bad ways, to grow food on their farms. Growing too many plants in the same soil (土壤), in too short a time, can take away the soil’s nutrients faster than the soil can make new ones. That can turn the soil into dry sand, like a desert. The UN suggests (建议) some different actions to stop desertification. One is to teach people better ways of farming, including the use of better fertilizers (肥料). Another is reforestation which means planting more trees. One country that has done a lot of that is China. Today China has 61 million hectares (公顷) of reforested land—more than anywhere else in the world. 70. Which of the following can cause (导致) desertification? A. Using land too much. B. Reforestation. C. The use of better fertilizers. D. Water control. 71. Why is the climate change bad for desertification according to the passage? A. Because it is getting colder and colder so that plants can’t grow. B. Because it is getting hotter and hotter so that plants can’t grow. C. Because it doesn’t rain as it used to. D. Because big, fast changes in temperature can kill plants. 72. What’s the last paragraph probably about? A. The use of better fertilizers. B. The better ways of farming. C. China’s plans for planting more trees. D. The UN’s advice on fighting desertification. 【答案】70. A 71. D 72. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，围绕土地沙漠化问题展开，介绍了世界防治荒漠化和干旱日的由来，阐述了沙漠化的定义、原因以及联合国提出的应对建议等。 【70题详解】 细节理解题。根据“However, it also happens because people use land too much, and in bad ways, to grow food on their farms.”可知，过度使用土地会导致土地沙漠化，故选A。 【71题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Desertification sometimes happens because of the climate change, as big, fast changes in temperature can kill plants and trees.”可知，气候变化对沙漠化不利是因为温度的大幅快速变化会杀死植物，故选D。 【72题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“The UN suggests (建议) some different actions to stop desertification.”可知，最后一段主要讲的是联合国关于对抗沙漠化的建议，故选D。 F 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题后面的词数要求）。 Once a tortoise (乌龟) and two swans (天鹅) lived by a lake. They were very good friends. They spent many hours happily together. To their bad luck, there was no rain that year. The lake became dry. So they had to leave the lake to look for another place to live in. The two swans could fly easily, but for the tortoise it was difficult. The three of them began to worry and wonder, unsure of what to do next. At last, the two swans had an idea. They said to the tortoise, “We will place a stick in your mouth. We will carry the stick in our beaks (鸟嘴) on either side. This will make us fly together. But remember, you must not open your mouth. If you do, you know what will happen to you.” The tortoise was sad to leave the lake, but it agreed with the idea. One fine morning, they were flying over a large town. The people of the town were surprised at what they saw in the sky. They were very curious (好奇的) about it and started shouting excitedly. The tortoise heard the noise and wondered what it was about. It forgot its promise and opened its mouth to ask curiously, “Why is there…? Ah…!” Sadly, down fell the tortoise, and died. The swans had no chance to save it. They were sad to lose their best friend but had to fly away and started their new life. 73. Why did the tortoise and two swans have to leave the lake? (不超过5个词) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 74. How did the tortoise travel with the swans? (不超过10个词) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 75. What do you think caused the death of the tortoise? (15个词以内) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】73. Because the lake became dry. 74. The swans carried the tortoise with a stick. 75. Curiosity (好奇) killed the tortoise./ It forgot its promise and opened its mouth to ask questions curiously. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇寓言故事，讲述了乌龟和两只天鹅因湖水干涸离开湖泊，天鹅想出办法带乌龟飞行，然而乌龟因忘记承诺张嘴导致坠落死亡的故事，告诫人们要遵守承诺，不能因一时好奇而冲动行事。 【73题详解】 根据“To their bad luck, there was no rain that year. The lake became dry. So they had to leave the lake to look for another place to live in.”可知，因为那年没有下雨，湖水干涸了，所以它们不得不离开湖泊。故填Because the lake became dry. 【74题详解】 根据“They said to the tortoise, ‘We will place a stick in your mouth. We will carry the stick in our beaks (鸟嘴) on either side. This will make us fly together.’”可知，乌龟咬住棍子，天鹅用嘴叼着棍子带它飞行。故填The swans carried the tortoise with a stick. 【75题详解】 根据“The tortoise heard the noise and wondered what it was about. It forgot its promise and opened its mouth to ask curiously”可知，乌龟因为听到人们的喧闹声，忘记了自己的承诺，张开了嘴，所以才导致死亡。故填Curiosity (好奇) killed the tortoise./It forgot its promise and opened its mouth to ask questions curiously. 第四部分 写（共两大题，满分25分） Ⅸ.单词拼写（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 根据首字母及汉语提示，完成下列单词的拼写，使句意明确，语言通顺。 76. As the saying goes, “Speech is silver and s________ (沉默) is gold.” 【答案】(s)ilence 【解析】 【详解】句意：俗话说，雄辩是银，沉默是金。根据“… is gold”和首字母提示可知，silence“沉默”，名词作主语。故填(s)ilence。 77. The company plans to p________ (提供) a new app for mobile users. 【答案】(p)rovide 【解析】 【详解】句意：该公司计划为手机用户提供一款新的应用程序。根据中文提示“提供”以及首字母“p”可知，这里应用动词provide，表示“提供”；根据“The company plans to”可知，“plan to do sth.”是固定用法，表示“计划做某事”，所以此处要用动词原形。故填(p)rovide。 78. I was cleaning the classroom when it began to rain h________ (猛烈地). 【答案】(h)eavily##(h)ard 【解析】 【详解】句意：我正在打扫教室，突然下起了大雨。heavily/hard“猛烈地”，副词修饰动词。故填(h)eavily/(h)ard。 79. He r________ (提醒) me to finish homework on time yesterday. 【答案】(r)eminded 【解析】 【详解】句意：他昨天提醒我按时完成作业。remind“提醒”，动词；根据“yesterday”可知，句子时态为一般过去时，谓语动词应用过去式reminded。故填(r)eminded。 80. We are all e________（兴奋的）about the good news. 【答案】(e)xcited 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们都对这个好消息感到兴奋。根据汉语以及首字母提示可知，表示“兴奋的”且修饰主语We，因此是形容词excited，在句中作表语。故填(e)xcited。 Ⅹ.书面表达： 81. 假如你是李华，你的美国笔友Tom来信向你倾诉最近的烦恼：和父母经常争吵，不爱运动导致身体变差，周末沉迷手机不想做家务……请你根据本学期所学知识，结合以下要点和要求给他写一封回信，提出合理建议并分享自己的经历。 要点： 1.相处之道：多沟通、换位思考； 2.健康生活：坚持锻炼、合理饮食； 3.家庭责任：主动分担家务、体会父母辛劳。 要求： 1.包含所有要点，可适当拓展，字数80-100词； 2.条理清晰，语言流畅，书写规范； 3.信中不得出现真实的人名、校名等信息； 4.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 提示词: put oneself in one’s shoes换位思考 a balanced diet均衡的饮食 Dear Tom, I’m sorry to hear that you have problems with your parents. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Best wishes Li Hua 【答案】One possible version Dear Tom, I’m sorry to hear that you have problems with your parents.

There are several reasons for a jumping eye. Let’s have a look at it! ②Tiredness is an important reason. Not getting enough sleep or working for too long without rest may cause our eyes to complain. Eyes should have a rest once in a while. Scientists aren’t sure why, but they’ve found that getting more rest will make our eyes feel better. Remember not to stay up late. ③Dry eyes can also lead to a jumping eye. More and more people work office jobs that require a lot of sitting and staring at a computer screen. If the windows are behind you, the light will reflect (反射) on the screen. If the windows are in front of you, the sun and the screen will both shine into your eyes. Too much light can injure your eyes. This unhealthy way of life can lead to dry eye syndrome (DES干眼症). When our eyes are too dry, they can’t help jumping to keep them wet. To stay away from DES, use eye drops if you use the computer for more than seven hours a day and make sure to look away from the screen once every 20 minutes. ④Stress is the number-one reason for a jumping eye. It does harm to our eyes if it lasts for too long. When we’re under a lot of stress, the body gives out stress hormones (荷尔蒙) which leads to a “fight or flight” response (回应). To solve the problem, we can see our friends or relax ourselves in order to reduce the stress that might lead to jumping eyes. 63. The underlined word “injure” means “________”. A. 保护 B. 影响 C. 伤害 D. 帮助 64. To keep away from DES, we should ________. A. work for too long without rest B. stop too much light from shining into our eyes C. use eye drops as often as possible D. look away from the screen once every half an hour 65. What is the structure of the passage? A. ①/②③/④ B. ①②/③/④ C. ①/②③④ D. ①②③/④ D (One day, Gulliver was caught in a storm and his ship hit a rock. He was washed to the beach. Then he walked to find a city but he was so tired that he fell asleep. When he woke up, he found himself in Lilliput and a lot of small people were around him.) The emperor and I spoke to each other but neither of us understood a single word. I tried many languages but no one could understand my words, not even the cleverest of the emperor’s followers. After about two hours, the emperor left with his wife, children and their servants. He ordered some strong guards (警卫) to stop the crowd of people hurting me. An officer told the guards to catch six men who made me angry. These men were given to me and I had to choose their punishment (惩罚). I put five of them in my pocket. Then I pretended (假装) to eat the sixth man. The poor man shouted terribly. The guards were worried when they saw my knife in my hand. But I only cut the binding (捆绑物) round his hands. Then I put him on his feet and let him go. I lifted the other five men out of my pocket and put them on the ground, too. The people and the guards were very happy with my great kindness. They told the emperor about it. The emperor ordered his men to make a bed for me and they had to join six hundred of their little beds together to make one bed for me. At the same time, the emperor asked all his advisers for their advice on how to deal with me. But they didn’t seem to know what to do. If they set me free, I might be dangerous. I was eating so much food that soon all the people would be very hungry. The farmers could not grow enough food to feed all of us. The wise men thought that they should kill me. But it was impossible for them to dig a hole big enough to bury (埋) me. My dead body would smell terrible. This might cause much illness all over the country. ——Adapted from Gulliver’s Travels 66. How did the emperor’s advisers feel when the emperor asked them for advice? A. Bored. B. Happy. C. Worried. D. Excited. 67. What’s the correct order of the following statements according to the story? ①Gulliver didn’t punish the six tiny people and let them go. ②The emperor ordered his men to make a big bed for Gulliver. ③The emperor spoke with Gulliver and they couldn’t understand each other. ④Gulliver’s ship was caught in a storm and hit a rock. ⑤A crowd of tiny people hurt Gulliver. A. ④⑤③①② B. ③⑤④①② C. ④⑤①②③ D. ③①④⑤② 68. What can we infer (推断) from this passage? A. The six men made Gulliver very happy. B. The angry people in Lilliput would kill the Emperor. C. It was difficult for the people in Lilliput to deal with Gulliver. D. Gulliver and the emperor could understand each other. 69. What’s the best title for this passage? A Learning Languages in Lilliput. B. The Emperor’s Wrong Decisions. C. A Dangerous Storm and a New Home. D. Gulliver’s Early Experience in Lilliput. E Feeling hot? So is the earth. Because of problems like climate changes and bad ways of farming, much of the planet’s land is drying up. What can we do to solve this problem? One thing the United Nations did was to create a holiday. In 1994, the UN started World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought (世界防治荒漠化和干旱日), to let more people know about desertification. It is on June 17 every year. Desertification happens when healthy land—land full of water and nutrients (营养)—becomes deserts, which are dry and unhealthy. Every year, 20,000 to 50,000 square kilometers of the earth’s land is lost to desertification. In Africa, scientists expect that two thirds of Africa’s healthy land will be lost by 2025. Desertification sometimes happens because of the climate change, as big, fast changes in temperature can kill plants and trees. However, it also happens because people use land too much, and in bad ways, to grow food on their farms. Growing too many plants in the same soil (土壤), in too short a time, can take away the soil’s nutrients faster than the soil can make new ones. That can turn the soil into dry sand, like a desert. The UN suggests (建议) some different actions to stop desertification. One is to teach people better ways of farming, including the use of better fertilizers (肥料). Another is reforestation which means planting more trees. One country that has done a lot of that is China. Today China has 61 million hectares (公顷) of reforested land—more than anywhere else in the world. 70 Which of the following can cause (导致) desertification? A. Using land too much. B. Reforestation. C. The use of better fertilizers. D. Water control. 71. Why is the climate change bad for desertification according to the passage? A. Because it is getting colder and colder so that plants can’t grow. B. Because it is getting hotter and hotter so that plants can’t grow. C Because it doesn’t rain as it used to. D. Because big, fast changes in temperature can kill plants. 72. What’s the last paragraph probably about? A. The use of better fertilizers. B. The better ways of farming. C. China’s plans for planting more trees. D. The UN’s advice on fighting desertification. F 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题后面的词数要求）。 Once a tortoise (乌龟) and two swans (天鹅) lived by a lake. They were very good friends. They spent many hours happily together. To their bad luck, there was no rain that year. The lake became dry. So they had to leave the lake to look for another place to live in. The two swans could fly easily, but for the tortoise it was difficult. The three of them began to worry and wonder, unsure of what to do next. At last, the two swans had an idea. They said to the tortoise, “We will place a stick in your mouth. We will carry the stick in our beaks (鸟嘴) on either side. This will make us fly together. But remember, you must not open your mouth. If you do, you know what will happen to you.” The tortoise was sad to leave the lake, but it agreed with the idea. One fine morning, they were flying over a large town. The people of the town were surprised at what they saw in the sky. They were very curious (好奇的) about it and started shouting excitedly. The tortoise heard the noise and wondered what it was about. It forgot its promise and opened its mouth to ask curiously, “Why is there…? Ah…!” Sadly, down fell the tortoise, and died. The swans had no chance to save it. They were sad to lose their best friend but had to fly away and started their new life. 73. Why did the tortoise and two swans have to leave the lake?
