A. Choose the best answer (根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案):(10分)
My father was Chief Engineer of a business ship, which was sunk in World War II. The book Night of the U-boats told the story.
Memories
In September, 1940, my mother, sister and I went to Swansea, where my father’s ship was getting ready to sail. We brought him a family photograph to be kept with him at all times and keep him safe.
Then I remember my mother lying face down, crying. She had heard from a friend that the ship had been sunk by a torpedo (鱼雷).
I can remember the arrival of the telegram (电报), which in those days always brought bad news. My grandmother opened it. It read, “Safe. Love Ted.”
My most clear memory is being woken and brought down to sit on my father’s knee, his arm in a bandage (绑带).
He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a shore job in Glasgow for the rest of the war.
For as long as I can remember, he had a weak heart. Mother said it was caused by the torpedoes.
He said it was because of the cigarettes. Whichever, he died suddenly in his early 50s.
Ten years later I read Night of the U-boats and was able to complete the story.
Torpedo
One torpedo struck the ship. Father was in the engine room, where the third engineer was killed. He shut down the engines to slow the ship making it easier for it to be given up.
By the time he got on deck (甲板) he was alone. Every lifeboat was gone except one which had stuck strongly. When he tried to cut it free, it moved against the ship, hurting his hand and arm. He had no choice but to jump - still with the photograph in his pocket.
Three days later, he and other survivors were safe in Glasgow. All 23 with him signed the back of the photograph.
In my room is the book and the photograph. Often, glass in hand, I have wondered how I would have dealt with an explosion (爆炸), a sinking ship, a jump into a huge ocean and a wait for rescue? I have some more whisky and toast the heroes of the war for fear that we may forget.
35. We can guess that the mother and children went to Swansea to __________.
A. see the father off B. meet a friend
C. take a family photo D. enjoy the sailing of the ship
36. What did the writer learn about the father from the telegram?
A. He had arrived in Glasgow. B. His knee was broken.
C. His ship had been sunk. D. He was still alive.
37. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refers to the father’s __________.
A. taking a shore job B. weak heart
C. failure to return to sea D. hurt caused by a torpedo
38 The underlined word “survivors” in paragraph 2 from the bottom means ___________.
A. 船员 B. 幸存者 C. 商船 D. 战士
39. What is the passage mainly about?
A. A group of forgotten heroes. B. A book describing a frightening battle.
C. A ship engineer’s wartime experience. D. A businessman's memories of a sea rescue.
B. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage (选择最恰当的单词或词语完成短文):(12分)
B.选择最恰当的选项完成短文

D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题):(10分)
“I’m not allowed to stay out late.”
“Why do I have to do my homework before I can watch TV? My parents never let me go to parties.”
“Why is it just Mum and Dad who make the rules? Life’s just not fair.”
Do these complaints sound familiar? Well, if you think your life is hard, you might like to think about kids in ancient times. For some of them, life was really hard.
In ancient Greece, only the boys were allowed to go to school. Greek girls stayed at home, where their mothers taught them skills like cooking and weaving—things that would help them find a husband.
At the age of seven, some boys were sent away to very strict military (军事的) schools, where they were taught how to become soldiers. Nearly everything in their educational system was about war and battle. Life was pretty hard at these schools. For example, the kids were often hungry. The teachers didn’t let them have much food—for a reason. They wanted the boys to learn how to keep alive by stealing food. But if they got caught, they were punished (惩罚).
Aztec children in Central America also had a difficult life in ancient times. If they broke rules, they could expect some pretty cruel punishments.
On the good side, Aztecs really believed in the importance of schooling. In the home, children learned practical skills: dads taught their sons how to fish and farm while mothers taught their daughters home-making skills. Girls and boys also went to school (although the adults didn’t let them go to the same schools). Kids went to schools called telpochcalli. They had lessons about history, religion and music.
The boys also had lessons in how to fight. If the children were from a more important family, they went to a calmecac where they learned how to read and write, too.
At both schools children had to be on their best behaviours. They knew all about the punishments for behaving badly, and life was hard enough anyway.
51. The complaints are mainly about strict rules, aren’t they?
__________________________________________________________________________________
52. Why did Greek girls learn skills like cooking and weaving?
__________________________________________________________________________________
53. Who were calmecac for?
__________________________________________________________________________________
54. What did boys in both cultures learn at school in the past?
__________________________________________________________________________________
55. Who do you think have a harder life, children in the past or children today? Give your reasons.
__________________________________________________________________________________
VII. Writing (作文):(共14分)
56. Suppose you are Jon. You’ve just heard from your penfriend May and she wants to know something about your school activities. Please write back to her and tell her something about your rich school activities with at least 60 words. (假设你是Jon。你刚收到笔友May的信,她想了解你的学校活动。请给她写一封回信告诉她你们学校丰富多彩的校园活动。举例说明你如何参与其中一项学校活动,谈谈你对这项活动的看法,并说明理由。)

A. Choose the best answer (根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案):(10分)
My father was Chief Engineer of a business ship, which was sunk in World War II. The book Night of the U-boats told the story.
Memories
In September, 1940, my mother, sister and I went to Swansea, where my father’s ship was getting ready to sail. We brought him a family photograph to be kept with him at all times and keep him safe.
Then I remember my mother lying face down, crying. She had heard from a friend that the ship had been sunk by a torpedo (鱼雷).
I can remember the arrival of the telegram (电报), which in those days always brought bad news. My grandmother opened it. It read, “Safe. Love Ted.”
My most clear memory is being woken and brought down to sit on my father’s knee, his arm in a bandage (绑带).
He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a shore job in Glasgow for the rest of the war.
For as long as I can remember, he had a weak heart. Mother said it was caused by the torpedoes.
He said it was because of the cigarettes. Whichever, he died suddenly in his early 50s.
Ten years later I read Night of the U-boats and was able to complete the story.
Torpedo
One torpedo struck the ship. Father was in the engine room, where the third engineer was killed. He shut down the engines to slow the ship making it easier for it to be given up.
By the time he got on deck (甲板) he was alone. Every lifeboat was gone except one which had stuck strongly. When he tried to cut it free, it moved against the ship, hurting his hand and arm. He had no choice but to jump - still with the photograph in his pocket.
Three days later, he and other survivors were safe in Glasgow. All 23 with him signed the back of the photograph.
In my room is the book and the photograph. Often, glass in hand, I have wondered how I would have dealt with an explosion (爆炸), a sinking ship, a jump into a huge ocean and a wait for rescue? I have some more whisky and toast the heroes of the war for fear that we may forget.
35. We can guess that the mother and children went to Swansea to __________.
A. see the father off B. meet a friend
C. take a family photo D. enjoy the sailing of the ship
36. What did the writer learn about the father from the telegram?
A. He had arrived in Glasgow. B. His knee was broken.
C. His ship had been sunk. D. He was still alive.
37. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refers to the father’s __________.
A. taking a shore job B. weak heart
C. failure to return to sea D. hurt caused by a torpedo
38. The underlined word “survivors” in paragraph 2 from the bottom means ___________.
A. 船员 B. 幸存者 C. 商船 D. 战士
39. What is the passage mainly about?
A. A group of forgotten heroes. B. A book describing a frightening battle.
C. A ship engineer’s wartime experience. D. A businessman's memories of a sea rescue.
【答案】35. A 36. D 37. B 38. B 39. C

【答案】46. (h)istory
47. (d)angerous

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了盲人登山家张洪的传奇经历。他克服身体障碍,成功登顶欧洲最高峰厄尔布鲁士山,并计划征服七大洲最高峰和南北极。
【46题详解】
句意:中国盲人登山家张洪最近创造了历史。根据首字母提示和“On August 24, the 49-year-old became the first blind person in Asia to climb Mt. Elbrus.”可知,张洪创造了历史,因为他是亚洲第一个登上厄尔布鲁士山的盲人。名词history“历史”符合语境。故填(h)istory。
【47题详解】
句意:它被认为是地球上最危险的山峰之一。根据首字母提示和“At 5,642 meters above sea level...The mountain is covered by ice and snow all year round.”可知,厄尔布鲁士山被认为是地球上最危险的山峰之一。形容词dangerous“危险的”符合语境。故填(d)angerous。
【48题详解】
句意:为了准备登山,张洪接受了体能训练。根据首字母提示和“physical training (体能训练)”可知,此处表示“接受体能训练”。动词receive“接受”符合语境,空前的had是过去完成时的助动词,其后接动词过去分词,所以空处应填receive的过去分词received。故填(r)eceived。

D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题):(10分)
“I’m not allowed to stay out late.”
“Why do I have to do my homework before I can watch TV? My parents never let me go to parties.”
“Why is it just Mum and Dad who make the rules? Life’s just not fair.”
Do these complaints sound familiar? Well, if you think your life is hard, you might like to think about kids in ancient times. For some of them, life was really hard.
In ancient Greece, only the boys were allowed to go to school. Greek girls stayed at home, where their mothers taught them skills like cooking and weaving—things that would help them find a husband.
At the age of seven, some boys were sent away to very strict military (军事) schools, where they were taught how to become soldiers. Nearly everything in their educational system was about war and battle. Life was pretty hard at these schools. For example, the kids were often hungry. The teachers didn’t let them have much food—for a reason. They wanted the boys to learn how to keep alive by stealing food. But if they got caught, they were punished (惩罚).
Aztec children in Central America also had a difficult life in ancient times. If they broke rules, they could expect some pretty cruel punishments.
On the good side, Aztecs really believed in the importance of schooling. In the home, children learned practical skills: dads taught their sons how to fish and farm while mothers taught their daughters home-making skills. Girls and boys also went to school (although the adults didn’t let them go to the same schools). Kids went to schools called telpochcalli. They had lessons about history, religion and music.
The boys also had lessons in how to fight. If the children were from a more important family, they went to a calmecac where they learned how to read and write, too.
At both schools children had to be on their best behaviours. They knew all about the punishments for behaving badly, and life was hard enough anyway.
51. The complaints are mainly about strict rules, aren’t they?
__________________________________________________________________________________
52. Why did Greek girls learn skills like cooking and weaving?
__________________________________________________________________________________
53. Who were calmecac for?
__________________________________________________________________________________
54. What did boys in both cultures learn at school in the past?
__________________________________________________________________________________
55. Who do you think have a harder life, children in the past or children today? Give your reasons.
__________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】51. Yes, they are.
52. To find a husband.
53. For children from a more important family.
54. How to become soldiers.
55. Children in the past. Because if they broke rules, they could expect some pretty cruel punishment.
【解析】
【导语】本文通过列举现代孩子对生活规则的抱怨,引出古代孩子的生活状况,具体介绍了古希腊和古阿兹特克时期孩子的学习、生活及所受惩罚,展现了古代部分孩子艰难的生活。
【51题详解】
根据文章开头孩子的抱怨“I’m not allowed to stay out late.”“Why do I have to do my homework before I can watch TV?”“Why is it just Mum and Dad who make the rules?”可知,这些抱怨均围绕父母制定的严格规则展开,因此答案是肯定的。故填Yes, they are.
【52题详解】
根据第五段“Greek girls stayed at home, where their mothers taught them skills like cooking and weaving-things that would help them find a husband.”可知,希腊女孩学习烹饪和编织等技能,是因为这些技能能帮助她们找到丈夫。故填To find a husband.
【53题详解】
根据第九段“If the children were from a more important family, they went to a calmecac where they learned how to read and write, too.”可知,calmecac (阿兹特克的一种学校) 是为来自更重要家庭的孩子设立的。故填For children from a more important family.
【54题详解】
根据第六段“At the age of seven, some boys were sent away to very strict military schools, where they were taught how to become soldiers.”和第九段“The boys also had lessons in how to fight.”可知,古希腊男孩学习成为士兵的技能,古阿兹特克男孩学习战斗技能,两者均涉及战斗相关能力的学习,即学习如何成为士兵。故填How to become soldiers.
【55题详解】
开放性问题,答案不唯一。参考答案为:Children in the past. Because if they broke rules, they could expect some pretty cruel punishment.
