Its meaning comes from two important historical 16 in ancient China. During the Western Han Dynasty (202 BC–9 AD), Emperor Jingdi wanted to make the princes less powerful. This made seven princes very 17 . In 154 BC, they joined together to 18 the emperor. Their rebellion caused years of war, destroyed many cities, and left people’s lives in chaos. Although the emperor 19 won, the damage was huge. People later called this event “Luan Qi” (Chaotic Seven). Later, in the Jin Dynasty (266–420 AD), eight princes started fighting each other for power. This “Eight Princes’ Rebellion” 20 from 291 to 306 AD．The war burned villages, killed thousands of people, and made society fall apart. The word “Ba Zao” (Eight Troubles) became a 21 of long-lasting chaos. As time passed, people combined these two stories to 22 “Luan Qi Ba Zao”. They used it to talk about any situation that was as messy as these ancient wars. Today, we still use this phrase in daily life. For example: “My desk is a luan qi ba zao after studying all night!” This idiom shows how history can 23 language. By learning about “Luan Qi Ba Zao”, we not only understand a phrase but also remember the lessons from the past: fighting and chaos always bring suffering. For our junior students, learning idioms like “Luan Qi Ba Zao” is like opening a door to China’s rich history. When we understand their origins, we can discover more about history, appreciate our culture better, and 24 our language skills. In this way, idioms are like 25 between the past and the present. They help us feel proud of our cultural heritage while making learning interesting! 16．A．matters B．accident C．events D．activities 17．A．bored B．angry C．frightened D．embarrassed 18．A．fight for B．fight against C．protect from D．struggle against 19．A．eventually B．accidentally C．frequently D．suddenly 20．A．happened B．spread C．enlarged D．lasted 21．A．symbol B．review C．mark D．sign 22．A．invent B．discover C．create D．build 23．A．change B．choose C．decide D．influence 24．A．replace B．improve C．deepen D．renew 25．A．ways B．methods C．bridges D．paths 三、阅读 (共两节，满分35分) 第1节 阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，掌握大意，然后从26-40各题所给的A、B、C、D项中，选出最佳选项。 A Do you know who was described as “superhuman” by the great inventor and astronomer Galileo? It was Archimedes who solved the king’s problem of the golden crown while taking a bath. He was perhaps one of the most outstanding scientists in the world. He was born on the island of Sicily in the city of Syracuse around the year 287 BC and died in 212 BC． Archimedes showed great love for mathematics. He made many discoveries. For example, he determined the exact value of pi (π) . He invented and developed methods similar to calculus and used them to find the area of a circle and an accurate estimation of the value of pi. The Archimedes’ Screw Today Archimedes is considered one of the greatest mathematicians in history. He used his mathematical skills and talents to create useful inventions to solve practical problems. One of his most famous inventions is called the Archimedes’ Screw. It was a device that could lift water to higher levels. One of its first uses was to pump water out from a leaking ship. It is still used today in some places to move water from low places to high places. This invention influenced Leonardo da Vinci as he worked on developing the functioning flying machine. Can you imagine counting the sand in the universe? Archimedes once tried to calculate the number of sand grains in the universe. Obviously, it was impossible, but he was too smart. His intellectual curiosity and achievement s to mathematics, in general, would go on to encourage other mathematicians as well. Most of his achievement s were far ahead of his time. Archimedes was indeed a genius. 26．What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2? A．The great inventions of Archimedes. B．A brief introduction to Archimedes. C．Archimedes’ discoveries in maths. D．Archimedes’ study on the universe. 27．What does the underlined word “It” refer to in Paragraph 3? A．The Archimedes’ Screw. B．A leaking ship. C．Water from low places. D．A high level device. 28．Why does the writer mention “Archimedes’ Screw” in the passage? A．To explain how it helped Archimedes study maths. B．To show how Archimedes used maths in everyday life. C．To introduce how Archimedes moved water from place to place. D．To tell how Archimedes developed the functioning flying machine. 29．Which of the following is true about Archimedes according to the passage? A．He liked to solve difficult problems while taking a bath. B．He was a man with many talents and died at the age of 87. C．He had great influence on the development of mathematics. D．He got most of his ideas from Galileo and Leonardo da Vinci. B How did the Maya count in ancient times? How many bags of corn did they have? How many did they sell? Did all the crops arrive at the city market? To answer these important daily questions, they used some numbers like this: The Maya was good at math. They counted in groups of 20, not 10. They wrote numbers in columns going up. The bottom row was the “ls” column, the next row up was 20s, then 400s, and so on. For numbers, they used a dot () for 1, a line for 5, and a shell () shape to show zero. Numbers 1 to 19 were written with a combination of lines and dots. Can you read the number in the following picture? It’s the number 1209(three 400s + no 20s + nine 1s). The Maya also kept three different calendars. The first divided the year into 18 months of 20 days each, plus a short month of 5 days. The short month was believed to be unlucky, a time when spirits walked. The second calendar repeated every 260 days. This was used to plan religious activities. When talking about events long ago, they used a calendar called “the long count.” This had a span of about 5,136 years. Year 1 on this calendar was 3114 BCE on our calendar. Each city and village had a calendar keeper, who was in charge of saying when to celebrate holidays and when to expect rain or plant crops. But farmers could probably also tell the time of the year from the sun and stars. 30．The Maya created their way of counting mainly to ________.

A．The development of numbers and calendars in Maya. B．The introduction of the Maya numbers and calendars. C．The situation of Maya numbers and calendars nowadays. D．The difference between numbers in Maya and other places. C Your teacher asks you to collect your classmates’ opinions about their favorite school lunches. After asking everyone, you have collected a lot of data (数据) or information and aren’t sure how to organize it. Creating a chart (图表) can be a great way to organize and share your data. Bar chart A bar chart has a horizontal axis (横轴) and a vertical axis (竖轴). It has a title that explains what it shows, and different bars are used to show different amount (量). The vertical axis expresses the amount and the horizontal axis suggests the kinds of data. Pie chart A pie chart helps organize and show data as a percent of a whole. True to the name, it looks a bit like a pie and uses a circle to show the whole. The different pieces of the pie are different sizes depending on how much of the whole pie they show. Each piece is labeled to show what it means. Line chart Line charts are used to show changes to numbers over time. They show what we call continuous data. The different data points are then joined up with straight lines, so we can look at the trend it shows. Flow chart A flow chart shows the different steps in something using boxes and arrows (箭头). It can often have many different directions and different ways. Flow charts can be great for explaining a huge process by breaking it down into different steps. 34．Why do we create a chart according to the passage? A．To collect data. B．To organize and share data. C．To ask the teacher for help. D．To ask everyone’s favorite lunch. 35．Which of the following is a bar chart?

They have different meanings in different countries. Let’s see some of the lucky and unlucky numbers across the world. The number 3 People in Sweden think all good things come in threes. For example, there are three kinds of medals in a game. People in the ROK and Italy think the same way. But people in Japan and Vietnam have different ideas. They don’t like taking photos when there are only 3 people. They think death will come for the person in the middle. The number 8 It is a lucky number in most countries. This number is very welcome among the Chinese people, because it sounds like “Fa” in Chinese, which means wealth and fortune. The Beijing Summer Olympics started at 08:08 p.m. on August 8th, 2008. Eight is also a lucky number in Japan. But it’s different in Bulgaria. People there think it can bring them bad luck. The number 9 In China, it’s a lucky number. It has the same pronunciation as “Jiu”, meaning everlasting. 9=九，久longevity In Norway, it’s a lucky number too. There are many stories about it. But people in Japan don’t like it. Why? Because when they say it in Japanese, it sounds like another word “KU”. The number 13 How about the number 13? It’s an unlucky number in many countries, like Norway, Sweden and the UK. Lots of bad things happened on the 13th in history. However, in Italy, 13 is a lucky number. People think 13 can help them live a happy life. 38．Which part of a magazine is this passage most probably taken from? A．Maths. B．Sports. C．Science. D．Culture. 39．Which countries think of the number three as a lucky number? A．Japan and Vietnam. B．The ROK and Japan. C．Vietnam and Sweden.

Your number has eleven digits. 41 That’s because your number is the longest mobile phone number in the world. Why is that? 42 Each part has a different meaning. The first three numbers tell you the mobile phone service provider. The fourth to the seventh digits tell you where the number is registered（注册）. And the last four digits are random（随机的）. We use eleven digits because China has the most people in the world. We once had ten numbers. But later there were not enough numbers for us. 43 That’s enough for each person to have seven or eight phone numbers to use in China. Mobile phone numbers can be used again. People can stop using their phone numbers. Then usually, the service provider will reuse the numbers after three to six months. 44 Besides China, Britain and Japan also use 11-digit mobile phone numbers. But their numbers always start with 0. 45 Countries like the United States, Australia and India use phone numbers with ten digits. Canada’s mobile phone numbers are perhaps the world’s shortest: only seven digits. A．There are three parts of the eleven digits. B．So they cannot create as many numbers as we can. C．Sometimes you may find the owners of some numbers change. D．So in 1999 we began to use eleven digits. E．You may find it hard to remember them. 第II卷（非选择题） 四、写作（共三节，满分30分） 第一节．语篇填词（本题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） Numbers are really important and used e 46 in our daily life.

True to the name, it looks a bit like a pie and uses a circle to show the whole. The different pieces of the pie are different sizes depending on how much of the whole pie they show. Each piece is labeled to show what it means. Line chart Line charts are used to show changes to numbers over time. They show what we call continuous data. The different data points are then joined up with straight lines, so we can look at the trend it shows. Flow chart A flow chart shows the different steps in something using boxes and arrows (箭头). It can often have many different directions and different ways. Flow charts can be great for explaining a huge process by breaking it down into different steps. 34．Why do we create a chart according to the passage? A．To collect data. B．To organize and share data.

This number is very welcome among the Chinese people, because it sounds like “Fa” in Chinese, which means wealth and fortune. The Beijing Summer Olympics started at 08:08 p.m. on August 8th, 2008. Eight is also a lucky number in Japan. But it’s different in Bulgaria. People there think it can bring them bad luck. The number 9 In China, it’s a lucky number. It has the same pronunciation as “Jiu”, meaning everlasting. 9=九，久longevity In Norway, it’s a lucky number too. There are many stories about it. But people in Japan don’t like it. Why? Because when they say it in Japanese, it sounds like another word “KU”. The number 13 How about the number 13? It’s an unlucky number in many countries, like Norway, Sweden and the UK. Lots of bad things happened on the 13th in history. However, in Italy, 13 is a lucky number.

Your number has eleven digits. 41 That’s because your number is the longest mobile phone number in the world. Why is that? 42 Each part has a different meaning. The first three numbers tell you the mobile phone service provider. The fourth to the seventh digits tell you where the number is registered（注册）. And the last four digits are random（随机的）. We use eleven digits because China has the most people in the world. We once had ten numbers. But later there were not enough numbers for us. 43 That’s enough for each person to have seven or eight phone numbers to use in China. Mobile phone numbers can be used again. People can stop using their phone numbers. Then usually, the service provider will reuse the numbers after three to six months. 44 Besides China, Britain and Japan also use 11-digit mobile phone numbers. But their numbers always start with 0. 45 Countries like the United States, Australia and India use phone numbers with ten digits. Canada’s mobile phone numbers are perhaps the world’s shortest: only seven digits. A．There are three parts of the eleven digits. B．So they cannot create as many numbers as we can. C．Sometimes you may find the owners of some numbers change. D．So in 1999 we began to use eleven digits. E．You may find it hard to remember them. 第II卷（非选择题） 四、写作（共三节，满分30分） 第一节．语篇填词（本题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） Numbers are really important and used e 46 in our daily life.

This made seven princes very 17 . In 154 BC, they joined together to 18 the emperor. Their rebellion caused years of war, destroyed many cities, and left people’s lives in chaos. Although the emperor 19 won, the damage was huge. People later called this event “Luan Qi” (Chaotic Seven). Later, in the Jin Dynasty (266–420 AD), eight princes started fighting each other for power. This “Eight Princes’ Rebellion” 20 from 291 to 306 AD．The war burned villages, killed thousands of people, and made society fall apart. The word “Ba Zao” (Eight Troubles) became a 21 of long-lasting chaos. As time passed, people combined these two stories to 22 “Luan Qi Ba Zao”. They used it to talk about any situation that was as messy as these ancient wars. Today, we still use this phrase in daily life. For example: “My desk is a luan qi ba zao after studying all night!” This idiom shows how history can 23 language. By learning about “Luan Qi Ba Zao”, we not only understand a phrase but also remember the lessons from the past: fighting and chaos always bring suffering. For our junior students, learning idioms like “Luan Qi Ba Zao” is like opening a door to China’s rich history. When we understand their origins, we can discover more about history, appreciate our culture better, and 24 our language skills. In this way, idioms are like 25 between the past and the present.

It was Archimedes who solved the king’s problem of the golden crown while taking a bath. He was perhaps one of the most outstanding scientists in the world. He was born on the island of Sicily in the city of Syracuse around the year 287 BC and died in 212 BC． Archimedes showed great love for mathematics. He made many discoveries. For example, he determined the exact value of pi (π) . He invented and developed methods similar to calculus and used them to find the area of a circle and an accurate estimation of the value of pi. The Archimedes’ Screw Today Archimedes is considered one of the greatest mathematicians in history. He used his mathematical skills and talents to create useful inventions to solve practical problems. One of his most famous inventions is called the Archimedes’ Screw. It was a device that could lift water to higher levels. One of its first uses was to pump water out from a leaking ship. It is still used today in some places to move water from low places to high places. This invention influenced Leonardo da Vinci as he worked on developing the functioning flying machine. Can you imagine counting the sand in the universe? Archimedes once tried to calculate the number of sand grains in the universe. Obviously, it was impossible, but he was too smart. His intellectual curiosity and achievements to mathematics, in general, would go on to encourage other mathematicians as well. Most of his achievements were far ahead of his time. Archimedes was indeed a genius. 26．What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2? A．The great inventions of Archimedes. B．A brief introduction to Archimedes. C．Archimedes’ discoveries in maths.

How many bags of corn did they have? How many did they sell? Did all the crops arrive at the city market? To answer these important daily questions, they used some numbers like this: The Maya was good at math. They counted in groups of 20, not 10. They wrote numbers in columns going up. The bottom row was the “ls” column, the next row up was 20s, then 400s, and so on. For numbers, they used a dot () for 1, a line for 5, and a shell () shape to show zero. Numbers 1 to 19 were written with a combination of lines and dots. Can you read the number in the following picture? It’s the number 1209(three 400s + no 20s + nine 1s). The Maya also kept three different calendars. The first divided the year into 18 months of 20 days each, plus a short month of 5 days. The short month was believed to be unlucky, a time when spirits walked. The second calendar repeated every 260 days. This was used to plan religious activities. When talking about events long ago, they used a calendar called “the long count.” This had a span of about 5,136 years. Year 1 on this calendar was 3114 BCE on our calendar. Each city and village had a calendar keeper, who was in charge of saying when to celebrate holidays and when to expect rain or plant crops. But farmers could probably also tell the time of the year from the sun and stars. 30．The Maya created their way of counting mainly to ________.

A．The development of numbers and calendars in Maya. B．The introduction of the Maya numbers and calendars. C．The situation of Maya numbers and calendars nowadays. D．The difference between numbers in Maya and other places. 【答案】30．D 31．D 32．A 33．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了古代玛雅人的记数方法和计算日历的方法。 30．细节理解题。根据“To answer these important daily questions, they used some numbers like this”可知，是为了解决日常重要的问题，故选D。 31．推理判断题。根据“The bottom row was the “ls” column, the next row up was 20s, then 400s, and so on. …Numbers 1 to 19 were written with a combination of lines and dots”可知，414的表达方式是 14个ls，20s放“零”的标志，400s放“1”的标志，故选D。 32．推理判断题。根据“The Maya also kept three different calendars. The first divided the year into 18 months of 20 days each”“The second calendar repeated every 260 days…”和“When talking about events long ago, they used a calendar called “the long count”…”可知，这三种不同的日历的用途都是有着不同的目的，A表述正确，故选A。 33．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了古代玛雅人的记数方法和计算日历的方法，故选B。 C Your teacher asks you to collect your classmates’ opinions about their favorite school lunches.

They have different meanings in different countries. Let’s see some of the lucky and unlucky numbers across the world. The number 3 People in Sweden think all good things come in threes. For example, there are three kinds of medals in a game. People in the ROK and Italy think the same way. But people in Japan and Vietnam have different ideas. They don’t like taking photos when there are only 3 people. They think death will come for the person in the middle. The number 8 It is a lucky number in most countries. This number is very welcome among the Chinese people, because it sounds like “Fa” in Chinese, which means wealth and fortune. The Beijing Summer Olympics started at 08:08 p.m. on August 8th, 2008.

Your number has eleven digits. 41 That’s because your number is the longest mobile phone number in the world. Why is that? 42 Each part has a different meaning. The first three numbers tell you the mobile phone service provider. The fourth to the seventh digits tell you where the number is registered（注册）. And the last four digits are random（随机的）. We use eleven digits because China has the most people in the world. We once had ten numbers. But later there were not enough numbers for us. 43 That’s enough for each person to have seven or eight phone numbers to use in China. Mobile phone numbers can be used again. People can stop using their phone numbers. Then usually, the service provider will reuse the numbers after three to six months. 44 Besides China, Britain and Japan also use 11-digit mobile phone numbers. But their numbers always start with 0. 45 Countries like the United States, Australia and India use phone numbers with ten digits. Canada’s mobile phone numbers are perhaps the world’s shortest: only seven digits. A．There are three parts of the eleven digits. B．So they cannot create as many numbers as we can. C．Sometimes you may find the owners of some numbers change. D．So in 1999 we began to use eleven digits. E．You may find it hard to remember them. 【答案】41．E 42．A 43．D 44．C 45．B 【导语】本文介绍了我们国家的手机号码为什么是11位以及一些国家的手机号码的位数。 41．根据“That’s because your number is the longest mobile phone number in the world”可知，此处介绍的是因为这组最长的手机号码对人们造成的困扰，E选项“你可能会发现很难记住它们”符合，故选E。 42．根据“Each part has a different meaning”可知，此处介绍了手机号码分成了几部分，A选项“11位数字有3个部分”符合，故选A。 43．根据“We once had ten numbers. But later there were not enough numbers for us”及“That’s enough for each person to have seven or eight phone numbers to use in China”可知，曾经用的是10个数字的电话号码，但是发现不够用，所以后来改为11个数字的电话号码，D选项“1999年，我们开始使用11位数”符合，故选D。 44．根据“Then usually, the service provider will reuse the numbers after three to six months”可知，通常会在三到六个月后重新使用这些号码，所以手机号码的主人就变了，C选项“有时你可能会发现一些号码的主人改变了”符合，故选C。 45．“But their numbers always start with 0”可知，此处应是对比我们国家和别的国家的情况，B选项“所以他们不能像我们一样创造更多的号码”符合，故选B。 第II卷（非选择题） 四、写作（共三节，满分30分） 第一节．语篇填词（本题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） Numbers are really important and used e 46 in our daily life.
