【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了安徽桐城“六尺巷”的由来,体现了中国传统文化中宽容与和谐的价值观念。
【41题详解】
句意:它背后的故事让许多游客感兴趣。make sb adj“使某人……”,形容词作宾补,interested“感兴趣的”修饰visitors。故填interested。
【42题详解】
句意:张家和他们的邻居吴家在房子的边界上有矛盾。both后加复数名词sides,both sides指代“两家”,此处指“两家的房屋边界问题”,故用所有格修饰名词house boundary。故填sides’。
【43题详解】
句意:他们想要他帮忙处理这个问题。help (to) do sth“帮忙做某事”。故填deal/to deal。
【44题详解】

【45题详解】
句意:他的家人认为他是对的,并将他们的墙向后移了三英尺。three修饰复数名词,foot“英尺”的复数是feet。故填feet。
【46题详解】
句意:所以他们高兴地做了同样的事情。此处应用副词修饰动词did,happy的副词是happily“高兴地”。故填happily。
【47题详解】
句意:如今,桐城已成为国家级历史文化名城。此处应用形容词修饰名词city,culture的形容词是cultural“文化的”。故填cultural。
【48题详解】
句意:这些天我们正在修理小巷两旁的老房子。由“these days”可知是现在进行时be doing,主语是we,be动词是are,repair的现在分词是repairing。故填are repairing。
【49题详解】
句意:将来会有更多的游客来这里参观,六尺巷的精神永远不会消失。由“in the future”可知是一般将来时will do结构。故填will visit。
【50题详解】
句意:远亲不如近邻。由than可知应用比较级,good的比较级是better。故填better。

七、阅读与回答问题(10分)
In Chinese, guiju refers to laws and rules. In fact, these two characters, gui and ju referred to (指的是) two tools in ancient times. Do you know what they were?
Gui was the tool used to draw circles, like today’s compasses (圆规). Ju was used to draw squares, like the try square today. They were useful tools and helped geometry (几何学) get better. Ju appeared (出现) in records of what is known as the Pythagorean theorem (勾股定理). This theorem was one of the most important findings in Maths history.
Ancient Chinese people created the tools very early. Records of the Grand Historian said that Dayu, the man who fought the flood (洪水), used gui and ju.
In the brick carving patterns of the Han dynasty, there are such pictures—Fuxi holds ju, while Nüwa holds gui.
62. What did people use gui and ju to do in ancient times?
_____________________________________________
63. How did these two tools help the development (发展) of Maths?
_____________________________________________
64. Who used gui and ju to fight the flood according to the passage?

63. They helped geometry get better.
64. Dayu (did).
65. (She holds) Gui.
66. I think they’re good for our studies./... (自拟一句话有道理即可)
【解析】

【62题详解】
根据“Gui was the tool used to draw circles”和“Ju was used to draw squares”可知,在古代,人们用“规”画圆,用“矩”来画正方形。故填To draw circles and squares./ They used gui to draw circles and ju to draw squares.
【63题详解】
根据“They were useful tools and helped geometry (几何学) get better.”可知,这两种工具帮助几何学发展得更好。故填They helped geometry get better.

_____________________________________
【答案】—Where would you like to live?—I would like to live on the grasslands./—Where would you like to live?—I’d like to live on the grasslands.
【解析】
【详解】“在哪里”用where,位于句首,首字母大写;“你”用主格的you,作主语;“想要做某事”用would like to do sth,疑问句中,要将would提到主语you前;“住”用动词live,不定式为to live;“你想要住在哪里?”用Where would you like to live?“我”用主格的I,作主语;“想要”用would like,would可以与I缩写为I’d;“住在草原上”用live on the grasslands,不定式为to live on the grasslands。“我想住在草原上。 ”用I would like to live on the grasslands.或I’d like to live on the grasslands.故填—Where would you like to live?—I would like to live on the grasslands./—Where would you like to live?—I’d like to live on the grasslands.
68. 我打算拍些活动照片并将发布到读书社团的网站上。
_____________________________________
【答案】I am going to take photos of the event, and I will post them on the book club’s website.
【解析】
【详解】根据汉语提示可知,本句应用and并列句,时态为一般将来时。前半部分用“I”(我)作主语;谓语动词用一般将来时结构“am going to take”(打算拍);名词短语“photos of the event”(活动的照片)作宾语。后半部分用“I”(我)作主语,谓语动词用一般将来时结构“will post”(将发布);代词“them”(它们)作宾语;介词短语on the book club’s website(到读书社团的网站上)作地点状语。故填I am going to take photos of the event, and I will post them on the book club’s website.

71. 一件好艺术品通常花费很长的时间制作。
_____________________________________
【答案】A good work of art usually takes a long time to make.
【解析】
【详解】a good work of art“一件好的艺术品”,usually“通常”,take a long time to do sth“花费很长时间做某事”,make“制作”,此句是一般现在时,主语是单数形式,动词用三单,故填A good work of art usually takes a long time to make.

One night, John came into the stable (马厩), calling, “Wake up, Beauty!”
He put my saddle (马鞍) and bridle (缰绳) on and rode up to the front door of the house. The Squire was there.
“John,” he said, “Mrs. Gordon is very ill. Ride to the doctor’s and give him this note.”
“Now, Beauty, do your best,” said John. I went as fast as possible.
When we got to Dr White’s house, John told him, “Mrs. Gordon is very ill. Squire Gordon thinks she is going to die. Please go to see her immediately (立刻).” “Yes,” said the doctor, “but my son has my horse. Can I have yours?” he asked.
The doctor was heavier than John, and not such a good rider. But I did my best and went as fast as possible. When we got to Birtwick Park, Squire Gordon was at the door. The doctor went into the house with him, and Joe led me to the stable. I was glad to be home.
My legs were shaking, and I was very wet. Joe was young and he forgot to put a warm blanket (毛毯) on me. Then he gave me cold water to drink. Soon all my body began to shake, and I felt very cold.
A long time later, John came back. He covered me with two or three warm blankets, and ran to the house for some hot water. He gave me some warm food, and then I think I went to sleep.
