A．making, that B．making, which C．make, that 【答案】A 【详解】句意：我希望未来中国在制造全世界人们都能买到的最好的高科技产品方面也会做得更好。 考查非谓语动词和定语从句。at是介词，后面接动名词作宾语，所以第一空要用“make”的动名词形式“making”；第二空引导定语从句，先行词“products”前有最高级“the best”修饰，关系代词只能用“that”，不能用“which”。故选A。 2．Bill _________ do well in English writing, but he kept practicing. Now he has made great progress. A．was used to B．used to C．didn’t use to 【答案】C 【详解】句意：比尔过去不擅长英语写作，但他坚持练习。现在他已经取得了很大进步。 考查动词短语和否定句。used to do sth.过去常常做某事；was used to do sth.被用来做某事；didn’t use to do sth.过去不常做某事。根据下文“Now he has made great progress.”可知，现在他取得了很大进步，前后存在“过去状态与现在相反”的对比逻辑：现在进步大，说明过去并不擅长英语写作；因此，这里需用否定形式“didn’t use to”，既符合“过去差→现在好”的转折关系，也与“but he kept practicing”的语义衔接一致。故选C。 3．As far as we know, no one can avoid _________ mistakes in the whole life. A．makes B．making C．to make 【答案】B 【详解】句意：据我们所知，没有人能在一生中避免犯错。 考查动名词及动词短语。avoid doing sth.“避免做某事”是固定搭配，空处应是making。故选B。 4．While they’re waiting for the New Year, they listen to music, sing traditional songs and have fun. Just before 12 o’clock, everyone _________ from 10: 10, 9, 8… As soon as it’s 12 o’clock, everyone shouts “Happy New Year! ” A．comes down B．turns down C．counts down 【答案】C 【详解】句意：当他们在等待新年到来的时候，他们会听音乐、唱传统歌曲并尽情欢乐。就在12点前，每个人都会从10开始倒数：10、9、8……一到12点，大家就会大喊“新年快乐！” 考查动词短语辨析。comes down下来；turns down调小（音量等）；counts down倒数。根据“from 10: 10, 9, 8…”可知，此处指的是“倒数”，应用counts down。故选C。 5．—Did your cousin use to live in the city or in the country? —________. A．Yes, he did B．No, he used to live in the city C．In the city 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——你的堂兄过去住在城市还是乡村？——在城市。 考查选择疑问句的回答。选择疑问句的回答需直接选择一项，不能用Yes/No回答，选择疑问句的回答要根据实际情况，从“in the city or in the country”中选择一项，需直接回答城市或乡村。故选C。 6．This pair of gloves ________ hand, and it ________ very comfortable. A．is made by, are felt B．is made by, feels C．are made from, are felt 【答案】B 【详解】句意：这副手套是手工制作的，摸起来很舒服。 考查主谓一致和动词的用法。be made by被……制成，强调动作执行者；be made from由……制成。第一空主语“This pair of gloves”是一个单数名词短语，因此动词需用单数形式，“is made by hand”表示“由手工制作”，符合逻辑；第二空前的“it”是单数主语，且描述“摸起来感觉”时，需用系动词“feels”的主动形式。故选B。 7．—Jim, why do you choose Chinese as your second language? —Because China is getting stronger and Chinese will be used ________ in the world. A．wisely B．widely C．wildly 【答案】B 【详解】句意：——吉姆，你为什么选择中文作为你的第二语言？——因为中国越来越强大，汉语将在世界上被广泛使用。 考查副词辨析。wisely明智地；widely广泛地；wildly疯狂地。根据“will be used...”以及选项可知，应用副词widely，表示将被广泛使用。故选B。 8．I don’t dare ________ in public because I’m afraid to get tons of attention. A．to sing B．sings C．singing 【答案】A 【详解】句意：我不敢在公共场合唱歌，因为我害怕会受到过多的关注。 考查非谓语动词。根据“I don’t dare...”可知，此处“dare”是实义动词 (因为情态动词的否定形式应为“dare not”)。实义动词“dare”常用于“dare to do sth.”结构，表示“敢于做某事”。虽然在非正式口语的否定句或疑问句中，“to”有时可省略，但在标准语法和规范用法中，接带to的不定式是更规范、更优先的选择。故选A。 9．—Excuse me, could you please tell me ________? —Go along the street until you pass the Center Street. It’s on your right. A．how can I get to the bookstore B．where the supermarket was C．how I can get to the post office 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——打扰一下，你能告诉我怎么去邮局吗？——沿着这条街走，直到你经过中央大街。它在你的右边。 考查宾语从句的语序及时态。how can I get to the bookstore我怎么去书店（疑问句语序，一般现在时）；where the supermarket was超市在哪里（陈述句语序，一般过去时）；how I can get to the post office我怎么去邮局（陈述句语序，一般现在时）。根据答语“Go along the street until you pass the Center Street. It’s on your right.”可知，是在询问去某地的路线，且宾语从句要用陈述句语序，时态用一般现在时，故选C。 10．—Do you know _________? —Yes, in Harbin, a beautiful city in HeiLongjiang Province. A．where will the 9th Asian Winter Games be held B．when the 9th Asian Winter Games will hold C．where the 9th Asian Winter Games will be held 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——你知道第九届亚洲冬季运动会将在哪里举办吗？——知道，在哈尔滨，黑龙江省一个美丽的城市。 考查宾语从句语序和被动语态。宾语从句要用陈述句语序，即“引导词+主语+谓语+其他”的结构；选项A“where will the 9th Asian Winter Games be held”是疑问句语序，不符合宾语从句的要求，所以该选项错误；选项B“when the 9th Asian Winter Games will hold”，“hold”在这里应该用被动语态“be held”，因为运动会是“被举办”，所以该选项错误；选项C“where the 9th Asian Winter Games will be held”是陈述句语序，同时“will be held”是一般将来时的被动语态，符合语法和语义要求。故选C。 二、完形填空(共15小题；每小题1分, 满分15分) Karl Marx (马克思) was born in Germany on May 5th, 1818. 11 he was young, he was forced (被迫) to leave his country again and again.

Before the beginning of every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took a card, wrote their names in a bright colour, and then placed the card on the desk. So when the speaker needed the answers from the students, he could see and call a listener’s name easily.” “I couldn’t understand that. My classmate told me the speakers were all top people. If your answer surprised him, it meant he would give you more chances. In fact, I really saw a few students got great chances because of that.” After listening to the story, I understood that the chance will not find you itself.

But, back in the early days of computing, there were no mice. The user could only use the keyboard to get things done. The world’s first computer mouse appeared in 1964. It was created by Douglas Engelbart, a scientist in California. The mouse looked like a wooden box with two metal (金属) wheels on the front and the left side and a single button on the top. Engelbart called it the “Bug”. But the long cable on the back made it look more like a “Mouse”, and the nickname quickly became popular and well known among users. Engelbart’s mouse looked simple, but it changed the way people used computers. The first improvement came eight years later, in 1972. Bill English, an American computer engineer, changed the wheels into a ball at the bottom of the mouse. The“Ball Mouse” was easier to use. It was such a success that it could be found in almost every office in the 1980s and 1990s. This product also had its problems, though. For example, dirt and dust would collect and jam the mouse over time, making it difficult to use. The next big change came in 1980. The optical (光学的) mouse didn’t need the ball. But because it was more expensive, people didn’t widely use it until the early 2000s. The mouse has come a long way since Engelbart’s “Bug”. Thousands of scientists have tried their best to make more user-friendly mice. And now you may be thinking about how to make the computer mouse even better. What will mice look like in the future? 41．What can we know about the first mouse? A．It was only made of wood. B．It was important in computer using. C．It had two wheels on the back. D．It was called “Mouse” by the inventor. 42．Which may be the mouse in Paragraph 3? A． B． C． D． 43．What does the underlined word “jam” mean in Paragraph 3? A．To let...full of people. B．To push...somewhere. C．To make...unable to work. D．To get...out of trouble. 44．What can we learn from the passage? A．Nowadays we could use both keyboard and mouse to control the cursor. B．The optical mouse wasn’t widely used because it was too hard to buy. C．Douglas Engelbart, from England, was the inventor of the “Ball Mouse”. D．Scientists have tried their best to make the mouse difficult to use. 45．What is the passage mainly about? A．The success of the mouse. B．The inventor of the mouse. C．The importance of the mouse. D．The development of the mouse. 【答案】41．B 42．B 43．C 44．A 45．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了鼠标的发展历史。 41．推理判断题。根据“Engelbart’s mouse looked simple, but it changed the way people used computers.”可知，第一个鼠标改变了人们使用电脑的方式，因此第一个鼠标在电脑使用过程中很重要。故选B。 42．推理判断题。根据“The first improvement came eight years later, in 1972. Bill English, an American computer engineer, changed the wheels into a ball at the bottom of the mouse”可知把鼠标底部的轮子变成了一个球，因此图片二符合。故选B。 43．词义猜测题。根据“dirt and dust would collect and jam the mouse over time, making it difficult to use.”可知，灰尘会聚集在里面，导致鼠标不能工作，由此推测“jam”意为“使……无法工作”。故选C。 44．细节理解题。根据“When you use a computer, how do you get your cursor (光标) to go where you want it to go? ‘By using a mouse,’ most people would say. But, back in the early days of computing, there were no mice. The user could only use the keyboard to get things done.” 可知，如今我们既可以用键盘也可以用鼠标控制光标。故选A。 45．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了不同时间人们对鼠标的改进，也就是鼠标的发展史。故选D。 四、任务型阅读 阅读下面短文, 请根据短文内容, 在文后表格中填入恰当的单词, 每空 一词。 (共10空；每空1. 5分, 满分15分) Have you noticed how things in nature slow down in winter? Animals sleep through the winter, insects stop buzzing (发出嗡嗡声) so much and leaves have dropped from the trees. There’s a lot we can learn from the natural world by learning to take things easy. One of the reasons that animals and plants slow down is to save energy. As humans are part of the natural world, it is good for people too. We need to rest so we can be full of energy when it’s time to be active again. Taking it easy helps us to notice more of what’s happening around us, like how a plant grows or how the clouds move in the sky. When we do things slowly, we pay attention to details we might miss if we rush. Slowing down gives you a chance to rest in between all the activities that fill your days-whether that’s school, homework, activities or spending time with family and friends. When you relax, your blood flows more steadily and your body digests (消化) food more easily. Resting also calms the mind, which improves our attention, memory and feelings. Slowing down is like giving your body a hug from the inside. It can also help learning. AUS study found that school pupils who were given 15 minutes of quiet time to read or think at the start or the end of the day were happier. The pupils also worked harder, paid more attention in class and got better grades. Slowing down is a great way to get more from every moment. Next time, you go for a walk, instead of rushing from point A to point B, try paying attention to your surroundings - listen out for birds or the sound of the wind, notice scenery and any smells in the air. You could also try cooking something that takes time and patience. Notice what difference it makes to how you think and feel. In a word, we humans should follow the rhythms of nature. So, enjoy life in the slow lane (小巷) during the winter month. Resting helps to save energy. Things in nature slow down in 46 . We human beings can learn to take things easy to learn from the natural world. Reasons Why go slow?

Thirdly, we must be able to read the language, and fourthly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar. There is no 59 (easily) way to success in learning a language. A good memory is a great help, 60 , it is not enough to memorize rules from a grammar book only. It is not much use learning long lists of words and their 61 (mean) by heart, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by 62 (use) the language. If we are satisfied with only a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. “Learn through use” is a good piece of 63 (advise) for those 64 are studying a new language.

I was afraid to answer questions in class and I found that a lot of my classmates were like me. When the teacher asked a question, I always lowered my head because I was afraid that the teacher saw me. One day, in a foreign language class, Mr. Black gave us a lesson. He wanted us to be active in class, so he asked us some questions, but no one answered. “Let me tell you a story first,” he said. “When I came to the United States to study, the university often invited famous people to make speeches. Before the beginning of every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took a card, wrote their names in a bright colour, and then placed the card on the desk. So when the speaker needed the answers from the students, he could see and call a listener’s name easily.” “I couldn’t understand that. My classmate told me the speakers were all top people. If your answer surprised him, it meant he would give you more chances. In fact, I really saw a few students got great chances because of that.” After listening to the story, I understood that the chance will not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance and catch it. 36．What did Mr. Black want the students to do in his class? A．Read aloud. B．Take notes carefully. C．Be active. D．Listen to him quietly. 37．How did the writer’s classmates behave (表现) when they were asked questions? A．They raised their hands. B．They shook their heads. C．They closed their eyes. D．They lowered their heads. 38．How did the speaker get to know the students’ names when he gave a speech? A．He got them from the computer. B．He saw the card on the desk. C．He asked the students for their names. D．He got them from the name list on the teacher’s desk. 39．Where can we find the passage in the newspaper? A．In the learning part. B．In the food part. C．In the sports part. D．In the ad part. 40．What does the writer mainly tell us? A．Showing yourself bravely can win chances. B．Answering questions bravely is easy. C．Calling others names is interesting. D．Doing things as others do is necessary. D When you use a computer, how do you get your cursor (光标) to go where you want it to go? “By using a mouse,” most people would say. But, back in the early days of computing, there were no mice. The user could only use the keyboard to get things done. The world’s first computer mouse appeared in 1964. It was created by Douglas Engelbart, a scientist in California. The mouse looked like a wooden box with two metal (金属) wheels on the front and the left side and a single button on the top. Engelbart called it the “Bug”. But the long cable on the back made it look more like a “Mouse”, and the nickname quickly became popular and well known among users. Engelbart’s mouse looked simple, but it changed the way people used computers. The first improvement came eight years later, in 1972. Bill English, an American computer engineer, changed the wheels into a ball at the bottom of the mouse. The“Ball Mouse” was easier to use. It was such a success that it could be found in almost every office in the 1980s and 1990s. This product also had its problems, though. For example, dirt and dust would collect and jam the mouse over time, making it difficult to use. The next big change came in 1980. The optical (光学的) mouse didn’t need the ball. But because it was more expensive, people didn’t widely use it until the early 2000s. The mouse has come a long way since Engelbart’s “Bug”. Thousands of scientists have tried their best to make more user-friendly mice. And now you may be thinking about how to make the computer mouse even better. What will mice look like in the future? 41．What can we know about the first mouse? A．It was only made of wood. B．It was important in computer using. C．It had two wheels on the back. D．It was called “Mouse” by the inventor. 42．Which may be the mouse in Paragraph 3? A． B． C． D． 43．What does the underlined word “jam” mean in Paragraph 3? A．To let...full of people. B．To push...somewhere. C．To make...unable to work. D．To get...out of trouble. 44．What can we learn from the passage? A．Nowadays we could use both keyboard and mouse to control the cursor. B．The optical mouse wasn’t widely used because it was too hard to buy. C．Douglas Engelbart, from England, was the inventor of the “Ball Mouse”. D．Scientists have tried their best to make the mouse difficult to use. 45．What is the passage mainly about? A．The success of the mouse. B．The inventor of the mouse. C．The importance of the mouse. D．The development of the mouse. 四、任务型阅读 阅读下面短文, 请根据短文内容, 在文后表格中填入恰当的单词, 每空 一词。 (共10空；每空1. 5分, 满分15分) Have you noticed how things in nature slow down in winter? Animals sleep through the winter, insects stop buzzing (发出嗡嗡声) so much and leaves have dropped from the trees. There’s a lot we can learn from the natural world by learning to take things easy. One of the reasons that animals and plants slow down is to save energy. As humans are part of the natural world, it is good for people too. We need to rest so we can be full of energy when it’s time to be active again. Taking it easy helps us to notice more of what’s happening around us, like how a plant grows or how the clouds move in the sky. When we do things slowly, we pay attention to details we might miss if we rush. Slowing down gives you a chance to rest in between all the activities that fill your days-whether that’s school, homework, activities or spending time with family and friends. When you relax, your blood flows more steadily and your body digests (消化) food more easily. Resting also calms the mind, which improves our attention, memory and feelings. Slowing down is like giving your body a hug from the inside. It can also help learning. AUS study found that school pupils who were given 15 minutes of quiet time to read or think at the start or the end of the day were happier. The pupils also worked harder, paid more attention in class and got better grades. Slowing down is a great way to get more from every moment. Next time, you go for a walk, instead of rushing from point A to point B, try paying attention to your surroundings - listen out for birds or the sound of the wind, notice scenery and any smells in the air. You could also try cooking something that takes time and patience. Notice what difference it makes to how you think and feel. In a word, we humans should follow the rhythms of nature. So, enjoy life in the slow lane (小巷) during the winter month. Resting helps to save energy. Things in nature slow down in 46 . We human beings can learn to take things easy to learn from the natural world. Reasons Why go slow?
