When I was very young, people in our village lived by planting fruit trees. My grandparents always took me to the orchard (果园) on the hill. At that time, they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill. Even though we worked so hard, we had a hard life because there was little water.
One day, two young men from our government led a group of workers to our village. They learned about the difficulties we faced, and later, canals (水渠) and other projects (项目) began to be built in my village.
Soon after that, I moved to another city for my junior high school with my parents. I hadn’t been back for the last two years. One day, my family and I made time to return. We were surprised because everything had changed. The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn’t have to go up and down the hill anymore. 4. The river was so clean that fish swam happily in it. When we arrived home, my grandparents took out some fresh pears and apples. They told us that these canals encouraged more people to increase the fruit production (产量) with clean water in the river.

【18题详解】
句意:老师在酒店门前说道:“确保你有一部手机和一张地图。还有……”。
watch手表;phone手机;radio收音机。根据“Kevin takes out his phone. It doesn’t work.”可推出老师要学生们确保有手机和地图。故选B。
【19题详解】
句意:学生们齐声说。
both两者都;all所有的;either两者选一个。根据“the students”可知是指所有学生们齐声说。故选B。

thinking of思考;helping with帮助;talking about谈论。根据“a new phone game happily”可知此处指他们两人正在一起谈论游戏。故选C。
【21题详解】
句意:Kevin和Peter迷路了,他们没有发现乌云飘过来了,天气也变得雾茫茫的。

【22题详解】
句意:Kevin转身对Peter说:“我们可以使用地图。”
use使用;draw画;show展示。根据上一句“Soon the two boys can’t see the road well.”可知他俩看不清路了,所以这时Kevin想到了可以用地图来认路。故选A。

gets拿到;leaves留下;sells卖出。根据下文“in the hotel”可知Peter的手机落在酒店里了,没有带在身上。故选B。
【24题详解】
句意:男孩们害怕了。
excited兴奋的;afraid害怕的;bored厌倦的。根据上文可知他俩在山里迷路了,手机用不了,又没有地图,在这种情况下,两个男孩应是感到害怕了。故选B。
【25题详解】
句意:于是他们开始互相抱怨和喊叫。
each one每一个;another one另一个;each other彼此。根据“they begin to complain (抱怨) and shout at”可知是指对彼此大喊大叫。故选C。

our我们的;your你们的;their他们的。根据文章故事可知此处讲述的是Kevin和Peter爬山的故事,因此此处指的是“他们的”老师。故选C。

五、任务型阅读(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,按要求完成后面各个小题。
When I was very young, people in our village lived by planting fruit trees. My grandparents always took me to the orchard (果园) on the hill. At that time, they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill. Even though we worked so hard, we had a hard life because there was little water.
One day, two young men from our government led a group of workers to our village. They learned about the difficulties we faced, and later, canals (水渠) and other projects (项目) began to be built in my village.
Soon after that, I moved to another city for my junior high school with my parents. I hadn’t been back for the last two years. One day, my family and I made time to return. We were surprised because everything had changed. The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn’t have to go up and down the hill anymore. 4. The river was so clean that fish swam happily in it. When we arrived home, my grandparents took out some fresh pears and apples. They told us that these canals encouraged more people to increase the fruit production (产量) with clean water in the river.
5. 现在我的家乡已经发生了很大变化。Looking ahead, I am filled with hope and excitement for the future.
