This year, my mom and I went to the US to visit my aunt. During the first week, my aunt showed us around the neighborhood and told us where to do food shopping, to post letters and to have haircuts. I am quite good at remembering directions, so the second week I started walking the dog by myself. One day, my aunt wanted to cook chicken curry (咖喱鸡) for dinner and asked me to buy some chicken. I was quite nervous about doing the shopping by myself, but I decided to give it a go. I walked to the supermarket and went directly to the area where there were all kinds of meat. I always tried to save money while doing the shopping, so the bag that said “Special” immediately caught my eye. On the bag there were two words “chicken frame”. I knew the word “chicken”, but I had no idea what the word “frame” meant. “Anyway, this must be chicken.” I said to myself. Happily, I picked up the bag, paid for it and ran all the way back to my aunt’s house. When I handed the bag to my aunt, there was a strange look on her face. She said, “Helen, this is a chicken frame, so there’s not much meat. Inside the bag are actual chicken bones.” I felt so bad that I didn’t ask before I bought it. Then my aunt said, “It doesn’t matter. We can’t have chicken curry tonight, but we can have chicken soup. And we don’t have to return or waste it.” 39. What did the writer do in the first week in the US? A. She had a good haircut. B. She did some shopping. C. She posted letters back to China. D. She learned about the neighborhood. 40. How did the writer feel when she was asked to buy some chicken? A. Sad. B. Worried. C. Confident. D. Surprised. 41. Why did the writer buy the chicken frame? A. She thought it was chicken. B. She loved the chicken frame. C. She didn’t notice the word “frame”. D. She wanted to try the new food. 42. What is the best title of the text? A. A Day in My Aunt’s B. Traveling in the US C. A Shopping Mistake D. Learning to Cook 【答案】39. D 40. B 41. A 42. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者在美国探亲时因英语词汇量不足闹出购物乌龙的经历。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据“During the first week, my aunt showed us around the neighborhood and told us where to do food shopping, to post letters and to have haircuts.”可知，作者第一周主要熟悉周边环境。故选D。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据“I was quite nervous about doing the shopping by myself”可知，她感到紧张担忧，故选B。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据“On the bag there were two words ‘chicken frame’…Anyway, this must be chicken.”可知，作者认识“chicken”但不明白“frame”含义，心想这就是她想买的东西，因此误以为这是整只鸡而购买，故选A。 【42题详解】 最佳标题题。全文围绕作者因语言误解误购鸡架的经历展开，C项“一次购物失误”最贴切，故选C。 C ① “Drink eight cups of water.” We’ve all heard the advice. But according to a new research, it’s unnecessary for most healthy adults. ② Early in 1945, the U. S. National Research Council (国家研究委员会) advised adults to drink about 1.9 liters (升) of water daily. The suggestion is about a person’s total daily intake (摄入) of water from fruit, vegetables and soup. But many people believe they should drink eight glasses of water every day. ③ So, how much water do you need to drink daily? The study found that it’s different from one person to another. It depends on your age, size, physical activity and the weather in your city. ④ Our needs for water are the highest between the ages of 20 and 50. After that, the needs slowly go down. That’s because our metabolism (新陈代谢) slows down after the age of 50, and our needs for water go down, too. ⑤ Also, since men usually have larger bodies than women, they need more water. People whose jobs need more physical activities need more water than those who work in the office. And people who live in the place with hot weather need more water than those who live in the place with cold weather. ⑥ All in all, most of you don’t have to work out how much water you need by measuring (测量) your size and physical activity. Just drink whenever you are thirsty. 43. Which picture shows the right relations between X and Y? X: our age Y: our needs for water A. B. C. D. 44. The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________. A. the misunderstanding of drinking water advice B. the amount of water people need to drink daily C. the new research on drinking water D. the suggestion from the U. S. National Research Council 45. What’s the best structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】43. D 44. B 45. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍“每天需要喝多少水”的研究发现，不同人所需水量不同，并给出结论：渴了就喝。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Our needs for water are the highest between the ages of 20 and 50. After that, the needs slowly go down.”可知，20-50岁需水量最高，之后逐渐减少，年龄和需水量先升后降，选D。 【44题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“So, how much water do you need to drink daily? The study found that it’s different from one person to another.”可知，此处“it”指代“每天需要喝多少水”，故选B。 【45题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文可知，文章第1段指出“每天喝八杯水”的建议可能是错误的；第2段解释了这一误解的来源；第3段提出不同的人对水的需求量不同，接着第4、5段分别从年龄、体型、体力活动和天气等方面阐述了不同因素对水需求的影响；第6段总结，建议按口渴感饮水，避免含糖饮料。因此A选项图片符合文章结构。故选A。 D Have you heard of the three Rs—“Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”? They help cut down on waste. In China, a creative idea came to life at the Mingsha Mountain Crescent Spring tourist area (鸣沙山月牙泉景区) in Dunhuang, Gansu Province. The area launched an “Exchange Trash for Gifts” program. How does it work? Visitors get a trash bag from workers, collect litter around the site, and then exchange the trash for small gifts like key chains or fridge magnets (磁铁). Wang Keshou, a cleaner, is pleased to see many visitors helping pick up trash. “This has made my job much easier,” he says.

A. an email B. a notice C. a poster D. a report B My aunt moved to the US from China 15 years ago. This year, my mom and I went to the US to visit my aunt. During the first week, my aunt showed us around the neighborhood and told us where to do food shopping, to post letters and to have haircuts. I am quite good at remembering directions, so the second week I started walking the dog by myself. One day, my aunt wanted to cook chicken curry (咖喱鸡) for dinner and asked me to buy some chicken. I was quite nervous about doing the shopping by myself, but I decided to give it a go. I walked to the supermarket and went directly to the area where there were all kinds of meat. I always tried to save money while doing the shopping, so the bag that said “Special” immediately caught my eye. On the bag there were two words “chicken frame”. I knew the word “chicken”, but I had no idea what the word “frame” meant. “Anyway, this must be chicken.” I said to myself. Happily, I picked up the bag, paid for it and ran all the way back to my aunt’s house. When I handed the bag to my aunt, there was a strange look on her face. She said, “Helen, this is a chicken frame, so there’s not much meat. Inside the bag are actual chicken bones.” I felt so bad that I didn’t ask before I bought it. Then my aunt said, “It doesn’t matter. We can’t have chicken curry tonight, but we can have chicken soup. And we don’t have to return or waste it.” 39 What did the writer do in the first week in the US? A. She had a good haircut. B. She did some shopping. C. She posted letters back to China. D.

A Day in My Aunt’s B. Traveling in the US C. A Shopping Mistake D. Learning to Cook C ① “Drink eight cups of water.” We’ve all heard the advice. But according to a new research, it’s unnecessary for most healthy adults. ② Early in 1945, the U. S. National Research Council (国家研究委员会) advised adults to drink about 1.9 liters (升) of water daily. The suggestion is about a person’s total daily intake (摄入) of water from fruit, vegetables and soup. But many people believe they should drink eight glasses of water every day. ③ So, how much water do you need to drink daily? The study found that it’s different from one person to another. It depends on your age, size, physical activity and the weather in your city. ④ Our needs for water are the highest between the ages of 20 and 50. After that, the needs slowly go down. That’s because our metabolism (新陈代谢) slows down after the age of 50, and our needs for water go down, too. ⑤ Also, since men usually have larger bodies than women, they need more water. People whose jobs need more physical activities need more water than those who work in the office. And people who live in the place with hot weather need more water than those who live in the place with cold weather. ⑥ All in all, most of you don’t have to work out how much water you need by measuring (测量) your size and physical activity. Just drink whenever you are thirsty. 43. Which picture shows the right relations between X and Y? X: our age Y: our needs for water A. B. C. D. 44. The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________. A. the misunderstanding of drinking water advice B. the amount of water people need to drink daily C. the new research on drinking water D. the suggestion from the U. S. National Research Council 45 What’s the best structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. D Have you heard of the three Rs—“Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”? They help cut down on waste. In China, a creative idea came to life at the Mingsha Mountain Crescent Spring tourist area (鸣沙山月牙泉景区) in Dunhuang, Gansu Province. The area launched an “Exchange Trash for Gifts” program. How does it work? Visitors get a trash bag from workers, collect litter around the site, and then exchange the trash for small gifts like key chains or fridge magnets (磁铁). Wang Keshou, a cleaner, is pleased to see many visitors helping pick up trash. “This has made my job much easier,” he says. Mrs. Yang, a visitor from Tianjin, spent a pleasant day at the area with her child. Her kid was excited to collect trash for gifts. Mrs. Yang thinks the activity is meaningful. “It teaches children not to litter and that waste should go in the right place. Everyone has a role in protecting the environment,” she says. The program starts at 8:30 pm daily, and visitors can exchange their trash for gifts one hour later. It will continue until mid-October. 46. How do visitors get gifts in the activity? A. By buying them at the site. B. By picking up trash and exchanging it. C. By helping workers clean. D. By answering environmental questions. 47. Why does Wang Keshou feel happy? A. Fewer visitors come to the area. B. He can get more gifts from visitors. C. Visitors help reduce his cleaning work D. The activity brings more visitors. 48. The underlined word “launched” in Paragraph 2 means ________. A. started B. stopped C. changed D. praised 49. What is the passage mainly about? A. How to visit Dunhuang’s tourist areas. B. The importance of the three Rs. C. A successful environmental activity in China. D. The importance of reducing waste in daily life.
