He helps me with my guitar practice. A. play; / B. playing; the C. play; the D. playing; / 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：我哥哥擅长弹吉他。他帮我练习吉他。 考查非谓语动词和冠词。“弹吉他”play the guitar，表示“演奏某种乐器”，乐器前要加定冠词the；根据“My brother is good at”可知，介词at后加动词时，应用动名词形式作宾语，故第一空应用playing。故选B。 2.

A. to speak, improve B. speaking, support C. to speak, support D. speaking, improve 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：如果你经常练习说英语，你很快就会提高很多。 考查非谓语和动词辨析。improve提高；support支持。practice doing sth“练习做某事”，因此第一空填动名词；根据“practice…English more often, you’ll soon”可知，此处指经常练习说英语，就会提高很多，第二空填improve。故选D。 4.

A. Are; is B. Does; doesn’t C. Are; aren’t D. Is; is 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——米莉的表弟安迪是七年级的一员吗？——不，他是八年级的。 考查be动词。分析“Millie’s cousin Andy a member of Grade 7?”可知，此句缺少be动词，主语是单数，be动词用is；根据“he ... from Grade 8.”可知，此处是be from“来自”，主语是单数，be动词用is。故选D。 7. It’s a good idea ________ football with friends after school. A. play B. plays C. to play D. to playing 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：放学后和朋友一起踢足球是个好主意。 考查非谓语。分析句子可知，此处是固定句型“it is+名词+to do sth.”，意为“做某事是……”，it是形式主语，不定式to play是真正的主语。故选C。 8. He looks sad and I want to tell him ________. A. interesting something B. something interesting C. anything interesting D. interesting anything 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：他看起来很伤心，我想告诉他一些有趣的事情。 考查不定代词及形容词的位置。interesting something和interesting anything表达错误，形容词修饰不定代词要后置，所以排除选项A和选项D；something interesting一些有趣的事情，常用于肯定句中；anything interesting任何有趣的事情，常用于否定句或疑问句中。根据“He looks sad and I want to tell him…”可知，本句是肯定句，所以用something interesting。故选B。 9. Jane is my new pen pal. I often look forward to her e-mail. A. receive B. receives C. receiving D. received 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】试题分析：句意：Jane是我的新笔友，我常常期待着收到她的电子邮件。look forward to doing sth.为固定搭配，to是介词，后跟动词的ing形式，意为“期待做某事”。故选C。 10. —________ does your brother like the pet snake? —Because he thinks it’s exciting.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲国际研究表明推迟上学时间能改善青少年的学业成绩和健康状况等。但由于青少年大脑仍在发育，自然入睡晚，故提前就寝效果有限。 【21题详解】 句意：国际研究显示，​​推迟上学时间​​能帮助青少年在学校表现更好。 improves改善；joins加入；helps帮助；breaks打破。根据“…teens do better…”可知，此处为help sb. do. sth.“帮助某人做某事”，选项中的其他动词无此用法。故选C。 【22题详解】 句意：当学校改为较晚开始上课时，学生​​成绩​​通常更好。 friends朋友；feelings情感；grades成绩；time时间。根据“When schools change to later start times, students usually get better”可知，学生在学校的成绩会变更好。故选C。 【23题详解】 句意：他们也有更少的​​健康问题，更少的病假。 health健康；social社会的；real真的；difficult困难的。根据“…and fewer sick days.”可知，与学生生病少相关联的状况是学生的身体更健康。故选A。 【24题详解】 句意：学生获得充足睡眠很​​重要​​，而较晚开始上学日将对此有所帮助。 lucky幸运地；successful成功的；active活跃的；important重要的。根据“They also have fewer…problems and fewer sick days.”可知，学校推迟上学时间，学生更健康，因此看出充足的睡眠是很重要的。故选D。 【25题详解】 句意：结果令人惊讶：当学校​​推迟一小时开学，普通学生将能多睡34分钟。 later更晚；earlier更早； before在……之前；after在……之后。根据“…the average student will get 34 more minutes of sleep.”可知，学生多了34分钟的睡眠时间是由于学校晚一小时上学。故选A。 26题详解】 句意：但​​为什么父母不能直接让青少年早点上床睡觉呢？ how如何；why为什么；whether是否；when何时。根据“However, teenagers often find it…to fall asleep at night.”可知，青少年入睡困难是家长不能做到让孩子们早睡觉的原因。故选B。 【27题详解】 句意：父母可以通过设定就寝时间和​​拿走手机来帮助孩子。 take away拿走；take off脱衣，起飞；take in吸收；take up从事。根据“…parents just make their teens go to bed earlier”可知，家长让孩子们早点睡觉的具体做法包括拿走他们的手机。故选A。 【28题详解】 句意：然而，青少年常常觉得​​晚上难以入睡。 heavy重的；heavily重地；hard困难的；hardly几乎不。根据“In fact, teenagers do not get tired in the evenings”可知，晚上青少年不感觉累导致他们很难入睡。故选C。 【29题详解】 句意：这是因为他们的大脑仍在​​发育。 developing发展；rising上升；looking看；making制造，使。根据“their brains are still…”和“That means it is usually difficult for teenagers to fall asleep”可知，晚上青少年很难入睡和他们的大脑仍在发育有关。故选A。 【30题详解】 句意：简单来说，他们的大脑告诉他们保持​​清醒​​。 asleep睡着的；healthy健康的；awake清醒的；quiet安静的。根据“In fact, teenagers do not get tired in the evenings like smaller children or adults do.”可知，晚上青少年不像更幼小的孩子或成年人一样感觉到累，即他们的大脑让他们保持清醒。故选C。 四、阅读（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 阅读理解（共5小题；每小题4分，共20分） 阅读下列短文，从1~5各题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。 (A) Today was my first day at school in Canada, and it was so different from my school in Xiamen.
