The number of books________getting larger than last year. A．is, is B．is, are C．are, are D．are, is 【答案】D 【详解】句意：在我们学校的图书馆有很多书。图书的数量比去年在逐渐增加。 考查主谓一致。a number of books为复数形式，故第一空用are；the number of表示“……的数量”做主语时，谓语动词用单数，故第二空用is。故选D。 3．To people’s great surprise，the old building still after the strong earthquake． A．refused B．remained C．required D．reviewed 【答案】B 【详解】句意：让人们很惊讶的是，旧大楼在强地震后依然存在。A拒绝；B保留，留存，残存；C要求，需求；D复习，回顾。根据still可知大楼在强震后依然留存，故选B。 4．—Mary was heard ________ then. What happened? —John was telling a joke. A．to cry B．to laugh C．crying D．laughing 【答案】D 【详解】句意：——当时听到Mary在笑。发生什么了？——John正在讲笑话。 考查动词辨析和非谓语动词。根据“Mary was heard...then.”和“John was telling a joke.”可知，本空表示当时正在发生的动作，应排除A、B，hear sb doing“听见某人正在做某事”，此处是被动语态；根据“John was telling a joke.”可知，讲笑话应该会使人发笑，排除C。故选D。 5．I was told that Shanghai ________ in the east of China. A．lies B．is lying C．lied D．lie 【答案】A 【详解】句意：我被告知上海坐落于中国东部。 考查动词时态和主谓一致。本句是that引导的宾语从句，主句为一般过去时，从句“上海坐落于中国东部”是客观事实，所以从句时态为一般现在时；从句主语Shanghai为第三人称单数形式，谓语动词也要用第三人称单数形式。故选A。 6．The young man had some bad fish yesterday. __________, he felt sick this morning. A．Because B．Because of C．As a result D．As a result of 【答案】C 【详解】解析：句意：这个年轻人昨天吃了些坏鱼，结果，今天早上他感觉不舒服。B选项的含义是“由于、因为”，D选项的含义是“作为…的结果，由于”，这两个短语后面必须接名词、代词或者动名词做宾语，不能使用逗号，所以B和D排除。because是一个连词，其后接句子，不能使用逗号，所以A选项排除。C选项的含义是“结果”，常常用于句首，并用逗号隔开，因此C选项符合题意。故答案选C。 7．—What shall we do this weekend? —You can go swimming, hiking, or ________ else you enjoy doing. A．anything B．nobody C．everything D．somebody 【答案】A 【详解】句意：——这周末我们应该做什么呢？——你们可以去游泳、远足或者（做）任何其他你们喜欢做的事。 考查代词辨析。anything任何事；nobody没有人；everything每件事；somebody某人。根据“You can go swimming, hiking, or...else you enjoy doing.”可知，本句表示提建议做某事，排除B、D；anything else意为“任何其他的事情”，在本句中表示除了去游泳、远足外任何其他的事情，排除C。故选A。 8．After running a 1000-metre race, he was________. A．out of breathe B．breathed heavily C．took a deep breath D．out of breath 【答案】D 【详解】句意：在1000米比赛后，他喘不过气来。 考查短语辨析。out of breathe错误表达；breathed heavily呼吸沉重；took a deep breath深呼吸；out of breath气喘吁吁， 喘不过气来，上气不接下气。1000米比赛后应该是喘不过气来，故选D。 9．In the film Murder in a Country House, a doctor is found________in the house, so the film is ________horror and mysteries. A．dying; fill of B．dead; full of C．dead; full with D．die; filled with 【答案】B 【详解】句意：在电影《乡宅凶杀案》中，一个医生被发现死在家中，所以这部电影充满了恐怖和神秘。 考查词义辨析和形容词短语。dying垂死的，形容词；dead死掉的，形容词；die死，动词。根据电影名“Murder in a Country House”可知，发生了凶杀案，所以人是死掉的，用形容词dead做宾语补足语；be filled with/be full of是固定短语。翻译为“充满”。故选B。 10．—When shall we go to watch the basketball match in the sports center? —Not until the work ________ tomorrow. A．will be finished B．is finished C．will finish D．has finished 【答案】B 【详解】句意：——我们什么时候去体育中心看篮球赛？——直到明天工作完成。 考查一般现在时的被动语态。句子的主语是the work与动词finish是逻辑上的被动关系，是动作的承受者，故句子是要用被动语态；not until引导一个时间状语从句，从句不能用将来时，主句是一般将来时，从句要一般现在时表示将来。故用一般现在时的被动语态，即am/is/are+及物动词过去分词，故选B。 11．—He never reads newspapers, ________?   —________. He often tells us something interesting in the newspapers. A．doesn’t he; Yes B．does he; Yes C．does he; No D．doesn’t he; No 【答案】B 【详解】句意：——他从不看报纸，是吗？——不，他看。他经常告诉我们在报纸上一些有趣的事情。 考查反意疑问句。反意疑问句遵循前肯后否，前否后肯，根据“never”可知疑问部分用肯定，排除A、D；根据“He often tells us something interesting in the newspapers.”可知他经常看报纸，故此处用Yes回答。故选B。 12．—Thanks for looking after me my illness，Millie． —Don’t mention it．That’s what friends are for． A．through B．against C．with D．across 【答案】A 【详解】句意：——米莉，谢谢你照顾生病的我。——别客气。这就是朋友的作用。 考查介词辨析。through通过，从头至尾，against反对，with表示伴随，across表示穿过。此处表示在我生病期间照顾我。故选A。 13．I know the city well that I don’t need to use a map to get around． A．quite B．very C．so D．such 【答案】C 【详解】句意：我了解这座城市如此的好，以至于我不需要使用地图到处走。quite相当地，very非常，so如此，such这样。so+形容词/副词+that+从句=such+a/an+形容词+单数名词+that+从句，表示“如此……以至于……”，此处修饰副词well，故用so…that…，故选C。 14．—How are the two college students getting on with their project work？ —Pretty well． of them enjoys working with the local students． A．Both B．All C．Each D．Any 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——那两个大学生的项目进展如何？——相当好。他们中每一个人喜欢和当地的学生一起工作。Both表示两者都，all表示三者或三者以上都，each每一个，any表示三者或三者以上中的任何一个。根据the two college students可知此处指的是两个大学生，故排除BD两项。根据谓语enjoys是第三人称单数，故主语用第三人称单数，故为each。故选C。 15．The boy asked his father ________. A．when would they go to Hong Kong for a holiday B．who was the television invented by C．what life on Mars will be like in the year 2100 D．if he could watch TV after finishing his homework 【答案】D 【详解】句意：这个男孩问他爸爸做完作业后是否能看电视。 考查宾语从句。宾语从句要用陈述句语序，排除选项A和B；再根据主句中的asked是动词过去式可知，从句应该也是过去式，选项C的时态为一般将来时，故排除。故选D。 二、完形填空(共15小题；每小题1分，计15分) The expression, “everybody’s doing it,” is very much at the center of peer pressure (同伴压力). It is a social influence applied on an individual in order to get that person to act or believe in a 16 way as a larger group. This 17 can be negative or positive, and can exist in both large and small groups. People are social creatures by nature, and so it is hardly 18 that some part of their self-respect comes from the approval (认可) of others. This explains why the approval of peers, and the fear of 19 , is such a powerful force in many people’s lives. This instinct (本能) drives people to dress one way at home and another way at work, or to answer a simple “fine” when a stranger asks “how are you?” 20 it is not necessarily true. For certain individuals, 21 for social acceptance is so important that it becomes an addiction (上瘾): in order to satisfy the desire (渴望), they may go too far and 22 their sense of right and wrong. Some young people may feel forced to use drugs, or join gangs (帮派) that 23 criminal behavior. Some adults may sometimes end up in debt (负债) because they are unable to hold back the desire to buy a house or car that they can’t afford in order to 24 the peers. 25 , peer pressure is not always negative. A student whose friends do well in 26 may be motivated to work harder and get good grades. Players on a sports team may feel driven to play harder in order to help the team win. This type of influence can also get a friend off drugs, or to help an adult develop a good habit or drop a bad one. Although peer pressure is sometimes quite 27 , some people may not even notice that it is affecting his or her behavior. For this reason, when making important decisions, such as choosing a career path or deciding on a major investment, simply going with an instinct is 28 . Instead, people should seriously consider 29 they feel attracted to taking a certain action. Is it because of their own values, long-term goals, or personal interests? They should also consider whether the real 30 behind their action is simply that everyone else is doing the same thing. Taking the time to think and make a wiser decision can lead to a proper and fulfilling life. 16．A．traditional B．similar C．weird D．normal 17．A．influence B．result C．cause D．method 18．A．understandable B．important C．acceptable D．surprising 19．A．mistakes B．failure C．disapproval D．independence 20．A．as if B．even if C．since D．unless 21．A．asking B．caring C．waiting D．looking 22．A．gain B．lose C．decrease D．increase 23．A．avoid B．stop C．encourage D．improve 24．A．have fun with B．stay away from C．make fun of D．keep up with 25．A．However B．As a result C．In conclusion D．What’s more 26．A．research B．music C．school D．sports 27．A．positive B．ridiculous C．reliable D．obvious 28．A．common B．dangerous C．natural D．necessary 29．A．why B．when C．how D．what 30．A．motivation B．danger C．support D．problem 【答案】 16．B 17．A 18．D 19．C 20．B 21．D 22．B 23．C 24．D 25．A 26．C 27．D 28．B 29．A 30．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了同伴压力的利与弊以及应对同伴压力的正确方法。 16．句意：它是一种施加于个人身上的社会影响，目的是让这个人的行为或信仰与更大的群体相似。 traditional传统的；similar相似的；weird奇怪的；normal正常的。根据“way as a larger group”和选项分析可知，较大群体中的人行事或相信的方式应该是相似的。故选B。 17．句意：这种影响力可以是负面的，也可以是正面的，并且可以在大群体和小群体中都存在。 influence影响；result结果；cause原因；method方法。根据上文“It is a social influence”可知，同伴压力是一种影响，它可能是消极的或积极的。故选A。 18．句意：人们天生就是社会性动物，因此，他们自尊的一部分来自他人的认可，这并不奇怪。 understandable可以理解的；important重要的；acceptable可以接受的；surprising令人惊讶的。根据上文“People are social creatures by nature,”可知，人天生就是社会性动物，所以人类的自尊有一部分来自别人的认可并不奇怪。故选D。 19．句意：这解释了为什么同伴的认可和对不认可的恐惧在许多人的生活中是如此强大的力量。 mistakes错误；failure失败；disapproval不赞成；independence独立。根据“the approval of peers, and the fear of …”和选项分析可知，此处是指同伴的认可和对不赞成的恐惧在许多人的生活中是一种强大的力量。故选C。 20．句意：这种本能驱使人们在家里和工作中穿着不同，或者在陌生人问“你好吗？”时，即使情况并非如此，也会简单地回答“很好”。 as if好像；even if即使；since因为；unless除非。根据句意和选项分析可知，句子前后两部分是转折关系，即虽然人们本能地这样做，但这并不一定是真的，所以要用表示转折关系的连词“even if”来连接。故选B。 21．句意：对于某些人来说，寻求社会认可如此重要，以至于它变成了一种上瘾：为了满足这种欲望，他们可能会走得太远，失去对是非的判断。 asking询问；caring关心；waiting等待；looking寻找，寻求。根据“it becomes an addiction”和选项分析可知，有些人上瘾了，所以此处是指寻求社会认可很重要。故选D。 22．句意：对于某些人来说，寻求社会认可如此重要，以至于它变成了一种上瘾：为了满足这种欲望，他们可能会走得太远，失去对是非的判断。 gain获得；lose失去；decrease减少；increase增加。根据“they may go too far”和选项分析可知，他们可能会走得太远了，所以此处是他们失去了是非感。故选B。 23．句意：一些年轻人可能会感到被迫吸毒，或者加入鼓励犯罪行为的帮派。 avoid避免；stop停止；encourage鼓励；improve提高。根据“join gangs that … criminal behavior”和选项分析可知，此处是指加入“鼓励”犯罪行为的帮派。故选C。 24．句意：一些成年人有时可能会负债累累，因为他们无法抑制购买自己负担不起的房子或汽车的欲望，以保持与同伴的同步。 have fun with和……玩得开心；stay away from远离；make fun of取笑；keep up with跟上。根据“buy a house or car”可知，购买房子或汽车，是为了跟上同龄人的步伐。故选D。 25．句意：然而，同伴压力并不总是负面的。 However然而；As a result结果；In conclusion总之；What’s more而且。分析句子结构可知，空后的句子“peer pressure is not always negative”与前文是转折关系，即前文主要讲了同伴压力的负面影响，但此处说同伴压力并不总是负面的，所以此处应该用表示转折关系的副词“However”。故选A。 26．句意：一个在学校表现良好的学生的朋友可能会受到激励，更加努力学习，取得好成绩。 research研究；music音乐；school学校；sports运动。根据“work harder and get good grades”和选项分析可知，更加努力学习、取得好成绩，所以此处是指在学校学习方面做得很好。故选C。 27．句意：尽管同伴压力有时很明显，但有些人可能甚至没有注意到它正在影响他们的行为。 positive积极的；ridiculous荒谬的；reliable可靠的；obvious明显的。根据“some people may not even notice that it is affecting his or her behavior”和选项分析可知，有些人甚至可能没有注意到它正在影响他或她的行为，但是同伴压力有时相当明显的。故选D。 28．句意：因此，在做出重要决定时，如选择职业道路或决定重大投资，仅仅凭直觉行事是危险的。 common常见的；dangerous危险的；natural自然的；necessary必要的。根据上文“some people may not even notice that it is affecting his or her behavior”和选项分析可知，在做重要决策时，有些人没有注意到同伴压力的影响，仅仅凭本能行事是很危险的。故选B。 29．句意：相反，人们应该认真考虑他们为什么被吸引去采取某种行动。 why为什么；when什么时候；how如何；what什么。根据下文“Is it because of their own values, long-term goals, or personal interests?”和选项分析可知，他们采取某种行动是因为他们自己的价值观、长期目标还是个人兴趣？所以此处是指他们为什么会被某种行为所吸引。故选A。 30．句意：他们还应该考虑他们行动背后的真正动机是否仅仅是因为其他人都在这么做。 motivation动机；danger危险；support支持；problem问题。根据下文“Taking the time to think and make a wiser decision can lead to a proper and fulfilling life.”和选项分析可知，花点时间去思考，做出明智的决定，所以此处是指他们应该考虑行动背后的真正动机。故选A。 三、阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，计30分) 阅读下列内容，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 A Teenagers are known for being creative and full of new ideas. Let’s have a look at these teenage inventions (发明) that might change the world. Banana leaves usually go bad in two or three days. Tenith Adithyaa, a teenager from India, used UV to make the leaves stay fresh for a year. Tenith thinks that one day the leaves will be used for making plates, cups and other things.   ________ David Cohen, an American teenager, built an earthworm robot. It is able to go into the smallest places, where humans or dogs can’t go. It will be used for finding people in a fire or an earthquake. Remya Jose, a 14-year-old from India, found it tiring and boring to handwash clothes in the nearby river. She reused some bicycle parts and created a washing machine that saves time, energy and keeps people fit at the same time. Kenneth Shinozuku, a 15-year-old from New York, noticed that his grandfather who got Alzheımer’s disease would often leave home and get lost. So he invented the wearable sensors to help people find their family members like his grandfather. 31．What is the passage mainly about? A．Popular ads. B．Useful machines. C．Strange pictures. D．Teenage inventions. 32．Which of the following can be put in ________ to show David’s invention? A．B．C．D． 33．Why did Kenneth Shinozuku invent the sensors? A．To help people with Alzheimer’s disease. B．To prevent his grandfather from falling over. C．To make the socks more comfortable to wear. D．To take good care of the old blind people. 【答案】31．D 32．B 33．A 【导语】本文展示了青少年的四项发明创造。如何使香蕉叶子保鲜；蚯蚓机器人；自行车部件改装的洗衣机；可穿戴的传感器。 31．主旨大意题。根据“Let’s have a look at these teenage inventions (发明) that might change the world.”可知，短文展示了青少年的一些发明创造，故选D。 32． 细节理解题。根据“David Cohen, an American teenager, built an earthworm robot. It is able to go into the smallest places”可知，David Cohen的蚯蚓机器人可以进入最小的地方，故选B。 33．推理判断题。根据“Kenneth Shinozuku, a 15-year-old from New York, noticed that his grandfather who got Alzheımer’s disease would often leave home and get lost. So he invented the wearable sensors to help people find their family members like his grandfather.”可知，Kenneth Shinozuku 发明了可穿戴传感器是因为他的祖父患有阿尔茨海默病，经常走失。因此，他的发明是为了帮助像他祖父一样的阿尔茨海默病患者，故选A。 B When the famous scientist Albert Einstein was 16 years old, he imagined himself riding alongside a beam (束) of light. He used this picture in mind to help him when thinking about the “theory of relativity (相对论)”. “Imagination is more important than knowledge,” said Einstein. Daydreaming, called “thought experiments” by Einstein, can make you have wild imaginings, like flying around in space. It lets your mind walk slowly around ideas, memories and experiences that aren’t happening right now. It means thinking ahead to a holiday or remembering how much you enjoyed a birthday party, According to China’s health authorities (权威机构), daydreaming for a while each day can improve your health and creativity. Disappearing into a daydream lets your mind have a rest when things are difficult. It helps you deal with worries and fears. For example, imagining how you’re going to speak up in class is like practicing the scene (场景) in your head, which can make you feel calmer. Daydreaming also inspires (激发) creativity and lets you find new worlds where there are no limits to what you can do or who you are. Guo Qiang, an expert in thoughts and feelings, thinks we should all make time to daydream. “Thinking for pleasure can be a powerful tool to shape our feelings.” he said. However, try not to let your mind be absent when you need to focus (聚焦) in class or cross the road. Instead, find a time when you don’t have to focus on anything, like going for a walk or brushing your teeth. Guo advises you can start by focusing on a happy memory or imagining a future success, like scoring a goal in the World Cup. To inspire creativity, think about interesting ideas and see where your mind takes you. Research shows that people often come up with more solutions to problems after they’ve taken a break. So next time you have difficulty with homework, stop for a moment and see where your daydreams take you. 34．Which writing skill is used in paragraph 1? A．Giving an example. B．Raising a question. C．Listing numbers. D．Giving reasons. 35．What does Guo Qiang first advise? A．Running away from the hard time. B．Looking for new worlds. C．Finding time to imagine. D．Focusing on success. 36．What is mentioned in paragraph 4? A．The steps to daydream. B．The things to daydream of. C．The reasons for daydreaming. D．The meanings of daydreaming. 37．Daydreaming is talked about ________. A．to remind people to have a mind break B．to find solutions to homework problems C．to advise living at the moment D．to show a science research result 【答案】34．A 35．C 36．B 37．A 【导语】本文讲了爱因斯坦提倡白日梦，认为想象力比知识更重要，它能提升健康、创造力，缓解压力，激发灵感，但需注意场合。 34．细节理解题。根据“When the famous scientist Albert Einstein was 16 years old ... said Einstein.”可知，第一段用了举例子的写作技巧。故选A。 35．细节理解题。根据“Guo Qiang, an expert in thoughts and feelings, thinks we should all make time to daydream.”可知，郭强首先建议找到时间想象，故选C。 36．推理判断题。根据第四段“Guo advises you can start by focusing on a happy memory or imagining a future success”可知，第4段提到了一些适合做白日梦的事情。故选B。 37．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Research shows that people often come up with more solutions to problems after they’ve taken a break. So next time you have difficulty with homework, stop for a moment and see where your daydreams take you.”可知，人们在休息之后通常会想出更多解决问题的办法，所以A选项“提醒人们休息一下”符合。故选A。 C An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old son. Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) landed on their window. The father asked his son, “What is that?” The son replied, “That is a crow.” After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, “What is this?” The son said, “Father, I told you just now. It’s a crow.” After a little while, the father asked his son the same question for the third time, “What is this?” This time, the son said to his father in a low and cold tone, “It’s a crow, a crow.” After a moment, the father yet again asked his son for the fourth time, “What is this?” This time his son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again? I have told you already, ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?” A minute later the father went to his room and came back with a diary, which he had kept since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa when a crow suddenly landed on the window edge. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied him 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I didn’t at all feel angry, but instead felt affection for my son. If your parents reach old age, do not look at them as a burden, but speak to them gently, and be kind to them. From today say this aloud, “I want to see my parents happy forever. They have cared for me ever since I was a little child. They have always showered me with love. I will take care of my old parents in the best way no matter how they behave.” 38．The writer mainly wants to ________. A．tell us the function (功能) of a diary B．call on us to love our parents C．teach us what a crow is D．introduce a pair of son and father 39．The underlined word “affection” probably means ________. A．stress B．anger C．worry D．love 40．We can infer that the father wrote that piece of diary at the age of ________.

A．he forgot what had happened B．he would like his son to read it C．it could remind himself of the past D．he wanted to find what a crow was 【答案】38．B 39．D 40．C 41．B 【导语】本文通过一位父亲在38岁所写的日记来呼吁我们要善待自己的父母。 38．细节理解题。根据“If your parents reach old age, do not look at them as a burden, but speak to them gently, and be kind to them.”以及通读全文可知，作者主要是呼吁我们要善待父母。故选B。 39．词义猜测题。根据“I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I didn’t at all feel angry, but instead felt affection for my son.”可知，父亲在回答儿子重复多遍的问题的时候，不生气反而每次都充满爱地拥抱他的儿子，所以“affection”应该是指对儿子深厚的爱。故选D。 40．细节理解题。根据“An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old son.”及“Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa”可知，父亲现年80岁，父亲在儿子3岁时写下日记，因此该日记应是在父亲38岁时写的。故选C。 41．细节理解题。根据“On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page.”可知，父亲拿出日记是想让儿子去读从而理解他的用意。故选B。 D Humans are getting away from the nature gradually because of the developing technology. But now Digital Technology is offering us an opportunity to listen to the sounds in the nature in powerful ways, making us get closer to the worlds of animals and plants. All around the nature, there are sounds that we struggle to pick up and understand. Elephants, for example, communicate with each other using infrasound, a sound far below our human hearing range. Coral in the ocean also communicates with each other through sound waves, with one purpose of attracting baby coral to areas where it can successfully grow. This is a shocking fact as coral doesn’t have any ears! To pick up sounds humans are normally unable to hear, scientists have placed listening devices in these environments. Researchers have attached (连接) tiny microphones to honeybees and turtles, and stuck listening posts that can receive different sound waves from coral reefs and trees. These devices are controlled by computers and networked with digital sensors and satellites. When interconnected, these digital devices work like a hearing aid: enabling humans to observe and record nature’s sounds beyond the limits of our own listening ability. After the sounds are recorded, AI is then able to determine their meanings. With this technology, humans can not only understand the animals, but also communicate back to them. For example, a team of researchers in Germany decoded the honeybees’ behavior with AI. Then they taught tiny robots how to do the honeybee dance. Using these dancing machines, the scientists were able to order the honeybees to stop moving, and to communicate where to fly to collect a specific nectar. In addition to the possibility of speaking with animals, the research could also be used to create a form of healing for animals and plants. That’s to say, in the near future, scientists might be able to get coral to grow in certain areas by playing “healthy reef” sounds, which could help some of the damage we have caused to become healthy again. Now, Digital Technology provides a new way for humans to listen to the lively sounds all around us. The dream of allowing humans to communicate with different animals and plants throughout the nature is being on its way. 42．Which of the following is NOT true about listening devices? A．AI can help to explain the meanings of nature’s sounds. B．The hearing aid collects the sounds from the animals or plants. C．Scientists need to connect the devices with computers and networks. D．The devices can record nature’s sounds beyond people’s listening ability. 43．Which is the right order to pick up the sounds from the nature for scientists? a. Analyze the meanings with the help of AI. b. Place listening devices into the nature world. c. Collect the sounds from the animals or plants. d. Connect the devices with computers and networks. A．c→d→b→a B．b→c→d→a C．c→b→a→d D．b→d→c →a 44．What can you infer from the last paragraph? A．Scientists are likely to discover a new way of recording. B．Humans will have better communication with the nature. C．It’s possible for people to dance with the honeybee together. D．Digital Technology can be used to communicate with anything. 45．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To discuss how to control listening devices. B．To compare different ways for communication. C．To introduce a technology to get closer to the nature. D．To suggest how to improve people’s listening ability. 【答案】42．B 43．D 44．B 45．C 【导语】本文介绍了科学家通过放置监听设备来倾听生物的声音，为我们提供一个强有力的方式倾听非人类的声音的机会，让我们更接近动物和植物世界。 42．细节理解题。根据“these digital devices work like a hearing aid: enabling humans to observe and record nature’s sounds beyond the limits of our own listening ability.”可知，数字设备能收集自然界中的声音，它们就像助听器一样，而不是“助听器收集动物或植物的声音”，B项错误。故选B。 43．推理判断题。根据第三段“To pick up sounds humans are normally unable to hear, scientists have placed listening devices in these environments.”可知先将听力设备放在大自然中，b项应排第一；根据第三段“These devices are controlled by computers and networked with digital sensors and satellites.”可知要将设备与计算机和网络连接，d项应排第二；根据第三段“When interconnected, these digital devices work like a hearing aid: enabling humans to observe and record nature’s sounds beyond the limits of our own listening ability.”可知将设备与计算机和网络连接后，要收集记录声音，c项应排第三；根据第三段“After the sounds are recorded, AI is then able to determine their meanings.”可知声音记录下来后，借助人工智能分析意义，a项排第四。故选D。 44． 推理判断题。根据“The dream of allowing humans to communicate with different animals and plants throughout the nature is being on its way”可知，人类与自然界中不同的动物和植物交流的梦想正在实现，由此推出人类将更好地与自然交流。故选B。 45．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章介绍了科学家通过放置监听设备来倾听生物的声音，为我们提供一个强有力的方式倾听非人类的声音的机会，让我们更接近动物和植物世界。选项C“介绍一种接近大自然的技术”符合题意，故选C。 四、词汇运用(共10小题；每小题1分，计10分) 根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。(每空一词) 46．David will (无疑地) be the best teacher in this school. Do you think so? 【答案】certainly/undoubtedly/surely  【详解】句意：大卫无疑是这所学校最好的老师。你也这样认为吗？根据汉语提示可知此处应用副词“certainly/undoubtedly/surely ”，修饰全句。故填certainly/undoubtedly/surely。 47．In China, people like to celebrate their birthdays according to the lunar (日历). 【答案】calendar 【详解】句意：在中国，人们喜欢按照农历来庆祝他们的生日。根据汉语提示可知，calendar为“日历”，lunar calendar为“农历”或“阴历”。故填calendar。 48．Teachers’ behaviors have an (影响) on the students. 【答案】influence/effect/impact 【详解】句意：教师的行为对学生有影响。根据汉语提示和“have an...on the students”可知，此处应用短语have an influence/effect/impact on sb.表示“对某人有影响”。故填influence/effect/impact。 49．In spring, people in Hangzhou usually go to Taiziwan Park to (欣赏) flowers. 【答案】admire 【详解】句意：在春天，杭州的人们通常去太子湾公园欣赏花朵。根据汉语提示可知，“欣赏”对应的英文单词是“admire”，且此处是不定式结构“to+动词原形”，需要用动词原形。故填admire。 50．You need to make a (选择) between what you need and what you want. 【答案】choice 【详解】句意：你需要在你所需要的和你所想要的之间做出一个选择。根据“make a...”可知，这里需要一个名词，“选择”的英文名词形式是“choice” ，“make a choice”是一个固定短语，意思是“做出一个选择”，故填choice。 51．The woman got (patient) as she waited in line for a long time. 【答案】impatient 【详解】句意：那个女人变得不耐烦了，因为她排了很长时间队。根据“as she waited in line for a long time”可知，此处表示因长时间排队而变得不耐烦，应用patient“耐心的”的反义词impatient“不耐烦的”，位于系动词“got”后作表语。故填impatient。 52．We could see the (sad) on his face after he heard the bad news. 【答案】sadness 【详解】句意：当他听到那个坏消息后，我们能从他脸上看到深深的悲伤。the后接名词作动词see的宾语，sad是形容词，对应的名词是sadness“悲伤”，不可数名词。故填sadness。 53．What do you think (cause) the accident that happened on Saturday night? 【答案】caused 【详解】句意：你认为是什么导致了周六晚上发生的事故？根据句意，因为事故是周六晚上发生的，是过去的动作，所以时态用一般过去时，“cause”的过去式是“caused”。故填caused。 54．What about having the notes (print) out and going over them before taking the exam tomorrow? 【答案】printed 【详解】句意：把笔记打印出来，在明天考试前复习一遍怎么样？have sth done“让某事被做”，printed符合句意，故填printed。 55．—Excuse me! When can I get my car back? —Not until it (repair) next Saturday. 【答案】is repaired 【详解】句意：——打扰一下！我什么时候能取回我的车？ ——要到下周六才修好。repair“维修”，动词，且主语it指代的是car“汽车”，与谓语动词repair“维修”之间为被动关系，应用被动语态。答句中省略了主句，从句为含有“not until”引导的时间状语从句，应遵循“主将从现”原则，则应用一般现在时的被动语态，其结构为“am/is/are done”，主语it为第三人称单数形式，be动词应用is，repair的过去分词形式为repaired。故填is repaired。 五、阅读表达(共5小题；每小题2分，计10分) 请认真阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 What’s the first thing that comes into your mind when you think of wheat straw (稻草)? Most people would probably see it as a pile of waste in a farmer’s field. However, Wu Cui, an intangible cultural inheritor (非遗传承人), can turn the straw into beautiful artworks. The earliest straw-weaving (编织) works were found at Hemudu Cultural Ruins (遗迹), a Neolithic cultural site in Zhejiang Province. This discovery means a lot to Chinese traditional culture. The Book of Rites also records that there were already mats (垫子) made of grass and professional straw-weaving craftsmen (工匠) during the Zhou Dynasty. Straw weaving is a method of making daily items or artworks. It was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage in 2008. Wu explains the process of straw weaving: choosing from materials is the first step of a process that may take several weeks, or even months to complete. You need to draw the piece on paper, which requires drawing skills. Next comes weaving, shaping and preserving of the work. Even by finishing that process, it does not mean that you will always create a good piece of work, and the hardest part is to make it lifelike. In the past, straw items could be found almost in every family in the countryside, in the form of straw hats and straw shoes, because they were practical in everyday life. But with the development of industry, many of these products are made in factories. This makes people gain little money, and there are only about 100 people joining in the work across the country. Wu says to a news reporter that more craftsmen should work together to make a difference to the spread of the traditional culture. Many hands make light work. 56．What may come into most people’s mind when thinking of wheat straw? 57．Where were the earliest straw-weaving works found? 58．How long may it take to choose from materials? 59．What is the hardest part of straw weaving? 60．What other advice would you give to craftsmen to spread the traditional culture? 【答案】56．A pile of waste in a farmer’s field. 57．At Hemudu Cultural Ruins./ In (a Neolithic culture site in) Zhejiang Province. 58．Several weeks or even months. 59．The hardest part is to make it lifelike. 60．It’s a good idea to create more cultural creative works/design posters... 【导语】本文介绍了稻草编织这一非物质文化遗产的历史、制作过程及其现状，并强调了传承和推广传统文化的重要性。 56．根据“What’s the first thing that comes into your mind when you think of wheat straw (稻草)? Most people would probably see it as a pile of waste in a farmer’s field.”可知，大多数人可能会把它看作是农民田里的一堆废物。故填A pile of waste in a farmer’s field. 57．根据“The earliest straw-weaving (编织) works were found at Hemudu Cultural Ruins (遗迹), a Neolithic cultural site in Zhejiang Province.”可知，最早的草编作品是在浙江河姆渡文化遗址发现的，河姆渡文化遗址是一个新石器时代的文化遗址。故填At Hemudu Cultural Ruins./In (a Neolithic culture site in) Zhejiang Province. 58．根据“choosing from materials is the first step of a process that may take several weeks, or even months to complete.”可知，选择材料这个过程可能需要几周甚至几个月的时间才能完成。故填Several weeks or even months. 59．根据“and the hardest part is to make it lifelike.”可知，最难的部分是让它栩栩如生。故填The hardest part is to make it lifelike. 60．开放性试题，答案不唯一。参考答案为It’s a good idea to create more cultural creative works/design posters... 六、短文填空(共10空；每空1分，计10分) China finally has its first male world chess champion!

It is a social influence applied on an individual in order to get that person to act or believe in a 16 way as a larger group. This 17 can be negative or positive, and can exist in both large and small groups. People are social creatures by nature, and so it is hardly 18 that some part of their self-respect comes from the approval (认可) of others. This explains why the approval of peers, and the fear of 19 , is such a powerful force in many people’s lives. This instinct (本能) drives people to dress one way at home and another way at work, or to answer a simple “fine” when a stranger asks “how are you?” 20 it is not necessarily true. For certain individuals, 21 for social acceptance is so important that it becomes an addiction (上瘾): in order to satisfy the desire (渴望), they may go too far and 22 their sense of right and wrong. Some young people may feel forced to use drugs, or join gangs (帮派) that 23 criminal behavior. Some adults may sometimes end up in debt (负债) because they are unable to hold back the desire to buy a house or car that they can’t afford in order to 24 the peers. 25 , peer pressure is not always negative. A student whose friends do well in 26 may be motivated to work harder and get good grades. Players on a sports team may feel driven to play harder in order to help the team win. This type of influence can also get a friend off drugs, or to help an adult develop a good habit or drop a bad one. Although peer pressure is sometimes quite 27 , some people may not even notice that it is affecting his or her behavior. For this reason, when making important decisions, such as choosing a career path or deciding on a major investment, simply going with an instinct is 28 . Instead, people should seriously consider 29 they feel attracted to taking a certain action. Is it because of their own values, long-term goals, or personal interests? They should also consider whether the real 30 behind their action is simply that everyone else is doing the same thing. Taking the time to think and make a wiser decision can lead to a proper and fulfilling life. 16．A．traditional B．similar C．weird D．normal 17．A．influence B．result C．cause D．method 18．A．understandable B．important C．acceptable D．surprising 19．A．mistakes B．failure C．disapproval D．independence 20．A．as if B．even if C．since D．unless 21．A．asking B．caring C．waiting D．looking 22．A．gain B．lose C．decrease D．increase 23．A．avoid B．stop C．encourage D．improve 24．A．have fun with B．stay away from C．make fun of D．keep up with 25．A．However B．As a result C．In conclusion D．What’s more 26．A．research B．music C．school D．sports 27．A．positive B．ridiculous C．reliable D．obvious 28．A．common B．dangerous C．natural D．necessary 29．A．why B．when C．how D．what 30．A．motivation B．danger C．support D．problem 三、阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，计30分) 阅读下列内容，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 A Teenagers are known for being creative and full of new ideas. Let’s have a look at these teenage inventions (发明) that might change the world. Banana leaves usually go bad in two or three days. Tenith Adithyaa, a teenager from India, used UV to make the leaves stay fresh for a year. Tenith thinks that one day the leaves will be used for making plates, cups and other things.   ________ David Cohen, an American teenager, built an earthworm robot. It is able to go into the smallest places, where humans or dogs can’t go. It will be used for finding people in a fire or an earthquake. Remya Jose, a 14-year-old from India, found it tiring and boring to handwash clothes in the nearby river. She reused some bicycle parts and created a washing machine that saves time, energy and keeps people fit at the same time. Kenneth Shinozuku, a 15-year-old from New York, noticed that his grandfather who got Alzheımer’s disease would often leave home and get lost. So he invented the wearable sensors to help people find their family members like his grandfather. 31．What is the passage mainly about? A．Popular ads. B．Useful machines. C．Strange pictures. D．Teenage inventions. 32．Which of the following can be put in ________ to show David’s invention? A． B． C． D． 33．Why did Kenneth Shinozuku invent the sensors? A．To help people with Alzheimer’s disease. B．To prevent his grandfather from falling over. C．To make the socks more comfortable to wear. D．To take good care of the old blind people. B When the famous scientist Albert Einstein was 16 years old, he imagined himself riding alongside a beam (束) of light. He used this picture in mind to help him when thinking about the “theory of relativity (相对论)”. “Imagination is more important than knowledge,” said Einstein. Daydreaming, called “thought experiments” by Einstein, can make you have wild imaginings, like flying around in space. It lets your mind walk slowly around ideas, memories and experiences that aren’t happening right now. It means thinking ahead to a holiday or remembering how much you enjoyed a birthday party, According to China’s health authorities (权威机构), daydreaming for a while each day can improve your health and creativity. Disappearing into a daydream lets your mind have a rest when things are difficult. It helps you deal with worries and fears. For example, imagining how you’re going to speak up in class is like practicing the scene (场景) in your head, which can make you feel calmer. Daydreaming also inspires (激发) creativity and lets you find new worlds where there are no limits to what you can do or who you are. Guo Qiang, an expert in thoughts and feelings, thinks we should all make time to daydream. “Thinking for pleasure can be a powerful tool to shape our feelings.” he said. However, try not to let your mind be absent when you need to focus (聚焦) in class or cross the road. Instead, find a time when you don’t have to focus on anything, like going for a walk or brushing your teeth. Guo advises you can start by focusing on a happy memory or imagining a future success, like scoring a goal in the World Cup. To inspire creativity, think about interesting ideas and see where your mind takes you. Research shows that people often come up with more solutions to problems after they’ve taken a break. So next time you have difficulty with homework, stop for a moment and see where your daydreams take you. 34．Which writing skill is used in paragraph 1? A．Giving an example. B．Raising a question. C．Listing numbers. D．Giving reasons. 35．What does Guo Qiang first advise? A．Running away from the hard time. B．Looking for new worlds. C．Finding time to imagine. D．Focusing on success. 36．What is mentioned in paragraph 4? A．The steps to daydream. B．The things to daydream of. C．The reasons for daydreaming. D．The meanings of daydreaming. 37．Daydreaming is talked about ________. A．to remind people to have a mind break B．to find solutions to homework problems C．to advise living at the moment D．to show a science research result C An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old son. Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) landed on their window. The father asked his son, “What is that?” The son replied, “That is a crow.” After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, “What is this?” The son said, “Father, I told you just now. It’s a crow.” After a little while, the father asked his son the same question for the third time, “What is this?” This time, the son said to his father in a low and cold tone, “It’s a crow, a crow.” After a moment, the father yet again asked his son for the fourth time, “What is this?” This time his son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again? I have told you already, ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?” A minute later the father went to his room and came back with a diary, which he had kept since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa when a crow suddenly landed on the window edge. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied him 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I didn’t at all feel angry, but instead felt affection for my son. If your parents reach old age, do not look at them as a burden, but speak to them gently, and be kind to them. From today say this aloud, “I want to see my parents happy forever. They have cared for me ever since I was a little child. They have always showered me with love. I will take care of my old parents in the best way no matter how they behave.” 38．The writer mainly wants to ________. A．tell us the function (功能) of a diary B．call on us to love our parents C．teach us what a crow is D．introduce a pair of son and father 39．The underlined word “affection” probably means ________. A．stress B．anger C．worry D．love 40．We can infer that the father wrote that piece of diary at the age of ________. A．eighty B．three C．thirty-eight D．forty-five 41．The old man brought out the diary, which he had kept since his son was born, because ________. A．he forgot what had happened B．he would like his son to read it C．it could remind himself of the past D．he wanted to find what a crow was D Humans are getting away from the nature gradually because of the developing technology. But now Digital Technology is offering us an opportunity to listen to the sounds in the nature in powerful ways, making us get closer to the worlds of animals and plants. All around the nature, there are sounds that we struggle to pick up and understand. Elephants, for example, communicate with each other using infrasound, a sound far below our human hearing range. Coral in the ocean also communicates with each other through sound waves, with one purpose of attracting baby coral to areas where it can successfully grow. This is a shocking fact as coral doesn’t have any ears! To pick up sounds humans are normally unable to hear, scientists have placed listening devices in these environments. Researchers have attached (连接) tiny microphones to honeybees and turtles, and stuck listening posts that can receive different sound waves from coral reefs and trees. These devices are controlled by computers and networked with digital sensors and satellites. When interconnected, these digital devices work like a hearing aid: enabling humans to observe and record nature’s sounds beyond the limits of our own listening ability. After the sounds are recorded, AI is then able to determine their meanings. With this technology, humans can not only understand the animals, but also communicate back to them. For example, a team of researchers in Germany decoded the honeybees’ behavior with AI. Then they taught tiny robots how to do the honeybee dance. Using these dancing machines, the scientists were able to order the honeybees to stop moving, and to communicate where to fly to collect a specific nectar. In addition to the possibility of speaking with animals, the research could also be used to create a form of healing for animals and plants. That’s to say, in the near future, scientists might be able to get coral to grow in certain areas by playing “healthy reef” sounds, which could help some of the damage we have caused to become healthy again. Now, Digital Technology provides a new way for humans to listen to the lively sounds all around us. The dream of allowing humans to communicate with different animals and plants throughout the nature is being on its way. 42．Which of the following is NOT true about listening devices? A．AI can help to explain the meanings of nature’s sounds. B．The hearing aid collects the sounds from the animals or plants. C．Scientists need to connect the devices with computers and networks. D．The devices can record nature’s sounds beyond people’s listening ability. 43．Which is the right order to pick up the sounds from the nature for scientists? a. Analyze the meanings with the help of AI. b. Place listening devices into the nature world. c. Collect the sounds from the animals or plants. d. Connect the devices with computers and networks. A．c→d→b→a B．b→c→d→a C．c→b→a→d D．b→d→c →a 44．What can you infer from the last paragraph? A．Scientists are likely to discover a new way of recording. B．Humans will have better communication with the nature. C．It’s possible for people to dance with the honeybee together. D．Digital Technology can be used to communicate with anything. 45．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To discuss how to control listening devices. B．To compare different ways for communication. C．To introduce a technology to get closer to the nature. D．To suggest how to improve people’s listening ability. 四、词汇运用(共10小题；每小题1分，计10分) 根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。(每空一词) 46．David will (无疑地) be the best teacher in this school.

Most people would probably see it as a pile of waste in a farmer’s field. However, Wu Cui, an intangible cultural inheritor (非遗传承人), can turn the straw into beautiful artworks. The earliest straw-weaving (编织) works were found at Hemudu Cultural Ruins (遗迹), a Neolithic cultural site in Zhejiang Province. This discovery means a lot to Chinese traditional culture. The Book of Rites also records that there were already mats (垫子) made of grass and professional straw-weaving craftsmen (工匠) during the Zhou Dynasty. Straw weaving is a method of making daily items or artworks. It was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage in 2008. Wu explains the process of straw weaving: choosing from materials is the first step of a process that may take several weeks, or even months to complete. You need to draw the piece on paper, which requires drawing skills. Next comes weaving, shaping and preserving of the work. Even by finishing that process, it does not mean that you will always create a good piece of work, and the hardest part is to make it lifelike. In the past, straw items could be found almost in every family in the countryside, in the form of straw hats and straw shoes, because they were practical in everyday life. But with the development of industry, many of these products are made in factories. This makes people gain little money, and there are only about 100 people joining in the work across the country. Wu says to a news reporter that more craftsmen should work together to make a difference to the spread of the traditional culture. Many hands make light work. 56．What may come into most people’s mind when thinking of wheat straw? 57．Where were the earliest straw-weaving works found? 58．How long may it take to choose from materials? 59．What is the hardest part of straw weaving? 60．What other advice would you give to craftsmen to spread the traditional culture? 六、短文填空(共10空；每空1分，计10分) China finally has its first male world chess champion!

It is a social influence applied on an individual in order to get that person to act or believe in a 16 way as a larger group. This 17 can be negative or positive, and can exist in both large and small groups. People are social creatures by nature, and so it is hardly 18 that some part of their self-respect comes from the approval (认可) of others. This explains why the approval of peers, and the fear of 19 , is such a powerful force in many people’s lives. This instinct (本能) drives people to dress one way at home and another way at work, or to answer a simple “fine” when a stranger asks “how are you?” 20 it is not necessarily true. For certain individuals, 21 for social acceptance is so important that it becomes an addiction (上瘾): in order to satisfy the desire (渴望), they may go too far and 22 their sense of right and wrong. Some young people may feel forced to use drugs, or join gangs (帮派) that 23 criminal behavior. Some adults may sometimes end up in debt (负债) because they are unable to hold back the desire to buy a house or car that they can’t afford in order to 24 the peers. 25 , peer pressure is not always negative. A student whose friends do well in 26 may be motivated to work harder and get good grades. Players on a sports team may feel driven to play harder in order to help the team win. This type of influence can also get a friend off drugs, or to help an adult develop a good habit or drop a bad one. Although peer pressure is sometimes quite 27 , some people may not even notice that it is affecting his or her behavior. For this reason, when making important decisions, such as choosing a career path or deciding on a major investment, simply going with an instinct is 28 . Instead, people should seriously consider 29 they feel attracted to taking a certain action. Is it because of their own values, long-term goals, or personal interests? They should also consider whether the real 30 behind their action is simply that everyone else is doing the same thing. Taking the time to think and make a wiser decision can lead to a proper and fulfilling life. 16．A．traditional B．similar C．weird D．normal 17．A．influence B．result C．cause D．method 18．A．understandable B．important C．acceptable D．surprising 19．A．mistakes B．failure C．disapproval D．independence 20．A．as if B．even if C．since D．unless 21．A．asking B．caring C．waiting D．looking 22．A．gain B．lose C．decrease D．increase 23．A．avoid B．stop C．encourage D．improve 24．A．have fun with B．stay away from C．make fun of D．keep up with 25．A．However B．As a result C．In conclusion D．What’s more 26．A．research B．music C．school D．sports 27．A．positive B．ridiculous C．reliable D．obvious 28．A．common B．dangerous C．natural D．necessary 29．A．why B．when C．how D．what 30．A．motivation B．danger C．support D．problem 三、阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，计30分) 阅读下列内容，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 A Teenagers are known for being creative and full of new ideas. Let’s have a look at these teenage inventions (发明) that might change the world. Banana leaves usually go bad in two or three days. Tenith Adithyaa, a teenager from India, used UV to make the leaves stay fresh for a year. Tenith thinks that one day the leaves will be used for making plates, cups and other things.   ________ David Cohen, an American teenager, built an earthworm robot. It is able to go into the smallest places, where humans or dogs can’t go. It will be used for finding people in a fire or an earthquake. Remya Jose, a 14-year-old from India, found it tiring and boring to handwash clothes in the nearby river. She reused some bicycle parts and created a washing machine that saves time, energy and keeps people fit at the same time. Kenneth Shinozuku, a 15-year-old from New York, noticed that his grandfather who got Alzheımer’s disease would often leave home and get lost. So he invented the wearable sensors to help people find their family members like his grandfather. 31．What is the passage mainly about? A．Popular ads. B．Useful machines. C．Strange pictures. D．Teenage inventions. 32．Which of the following can be put in ________ to show David’s invention? A． B． C． D． 33．Why did Kenneth Shinozuku invent the sensors? A．To help people with Alzheimer’s disease. B．To prevent his grandfather from falling over. C．To make the socks more comfortable to wear. D．To take good care of the old blind people. B When the famous scientist Albert Einstein was 16 years old, he imagined himself riding alongside a beam (束) of light. He used this picture in mind to help him when thinking about the “theory of relativity (相对论)”. “Imagination is more important than knowledge,” said Einstein. Daydreaming, called “thought experiments” by Einstein, can make you have wild imaginings, like flying around in space. It lets your mind walk slowly around ideas, memories and experiences that aren’t happening right now. It means thinking ahead to a holiday or remembering how much you enjoyed a birthday party, According to China’s health authorities (权威机构), daydreaming for a while each day can improve your health and creativity. Disappearing into a daydream lets your mind have a rest when things are difficult. It helps you deal with worries and fears. For example, imagining how you’re going to speak up in class is like practicing the scene (场景) in your head, which can make you feel calmer. Daydreaming also inspires (激发) creativity and lets you find new worlds where there are no limits to what you can do or who you are. Guo Qiang, an expert in thoughts and feelings, thinks we should all make time to daydream. “Thinking for pleasure can be a powerful tool to shape our feelings.” he said. However, try not to let your mind be absent when you need to focus (聚焦) in class or cross the road. Instead, find a time when you don’t have to focus on anything, like going for a walk or brushing your teeth. Guo advises you can start by focusing on a happy memory or imagining a future success, like scoring a goal in the World Cup. To inspire creativity, think about interesting ideas and see where your mind takes you. Research shows that people often come up with more solutions to problems after they’ve taken a break. So next time you have difficulty with homework, stop for a moment and see where your daydreams take you. 34．Which writing skill is used in paragraph 1? A．Giving an example. B．Raising a question. C．Listing numbers. D．Giving reasons. 35．What does Guo Qiang first advise? A．Running away from the hard time. B．Looking for new worlds. C．Finding time to imagine. D．Focusing on success. 36．What is mentioned in paragraph 4? A．The steps to daydream. B．The things to daydream of. C．The reasons for daydreaming. D．The meanings of daydreaming. 37．Daydreaming is talked about ________. A．to remind people to have a mind break B．to find solutions to homework problems C．to advise living at the moment D．to show a science research result C An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old son. Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) landed on their window. The father asked his son, “What is that?” The son replied, “That is a crow.” After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, “What is this?” The son said, “Father, I told you just now. It’s a crow.” After a little while, the father asked his son the same question for the third time, “What is this?” This time, the son said to his father in a low and cold tone, “It’s a crow, a crow.” After a moment, the father yet again asked his son for the fourth time, “What is this?” This time his son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again? I have told you already, ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?” A minute later the father went to his room and came back with a diary, which he had kept since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa when a crow suddenly landed on the window edge. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied him 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I didn’t at all feel angry, but instead felt affection for my son. If your parents reach old age, do not look at them as a burden, but speak to them gently, and be kind to them. From today say this aloud, “I want to see my parents happy forever. They have cared for me ever since I was a little child. They have always showered me with love. I will take care of my old parents in the best way no matter how they behave.” 38．The writer mainly wants to ________. A．tell us the function (功能) of a diary B．call on us to love our parents C．teach us what a crow is D．introduce a pair of son and father 39．The underlined word “affection” probably means ________. A．stress B．anger C．worry D．love 40．We can infer that the father wrote that piece of diary at the age of ________. A．eighty B．three C．thirty-eight D．forty-five 41．The old man brought out the diary, which he had kept since his son was born, because ________. A．he forgot what had happened B．he would like his son to read it C．it could remind himself of the past D．he wanted to find what a crow was D Humans are getting away from the nature gradually because of the developing technology. But now Digital Technology is offering us an opportunity to listen to the sounds in the nature in powerful ways, making us get closer to the worlds of animals and plants. All around the nature, there are sounds that we struggle to pick up and understand. Elephants, for example, communicate with each other using infrasound, a sound far below our human hearing range. Coral in the ocean also communicates with each other through sound waves, with one purpose of attracting baby coral to areas where it can successfully grow. This is a shocking fact as coral doesn’t have any ears! To pick up sounds humans are normally unable to hear, scientists have placed listening devices in these environments. Researchers have attached (连接) tiny microphones to honeybees and turtles, and stuck listening posts that can receive different sound waves from coral reefs and trees. These devices are controlled by computers and networked with digital sensors and satellites. When interconnected, these digital devices work like a hearing aid: enabling humans to observe and record nature’s sounds beyond the limits of our own listening ability. After the sounds are recorded, AI is then able to determine their meanings. With this technology, humans can not only understand the animals, but also communicate back to them. For example, a team of researchers in Germany decoded the honeybees’ behavior with AI. Then they taught tiny robots how to do the honeybee dance. Using these dancing machines, the scientists were able to order the honeybees to stop moving, and to communicate where to fly to collect a specific nectar. In addition to the possibility of speaking with animals, the research could also be used to create a form of healing for animals and plants. That’s to say, in the near future, scientists might be able to get coral to grow in certain areas by playing “healthy reef” sounds, which could help some of the damage we have caused to become healthy again. Now, Digital Technology provides a new way for humans to listen to the lively sounds all around us. The dream of allowing humans to communicate with different animals and plants throughout the nature is being on its way. 42．Which of the following is NOT true about listening devices? A．AI can help to explain the meanings of nature’s sounds. B．The hearing aid collects the sounds from the animals or plants. C．Scientists need to connect the devices with computers and networks. D．The devices can record nature’s sounds beyond people’s listening ability. 43．Which is the right order to pick up the sounds from the nature for scientists? a. Analyze the meanings with the help of AI. b. Place listening devices into the nature world. c. Collect the sounds from the animals or plants. d. Connect the devices with computers and networks. A．c→d→b→a B．b→c→d→a C．c→b→a→d D．b→d→c →a 44．What can you infer from the last paragraph? A．Scientists are likely to discover a new way of recording. B．Humans will have better communication with the nature. C．It’s possible for people to dance with the honeybee together. D．Digital Technology can be used to communicate with anything. 45．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To discuss how to control listening devices. B．To compare different ways for communication. C．To introduce a technology to get closer to the nature. D．To suggest how to improve people’s listening ability. 四、词汇运用(共10小题；每小题1分，计10分) 根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。(每空一词) 46．David will (无疑地) be the best teacher in this school.

Most people would probably see it as a pile of waste in a farmer’s field. However, Wu Cui, an intangible cultural inheritor (非遗传承人), can turn the straw into beautiful artworks. The earliest straw-weaving (编织) works were found at Hemudu Cultural Ruins (遗迹), a Neolithic cultural site in Zhejiang Province. This discovery means a lot to Chinese traditional culture. The Book of Rites also records that there were already mats (垫子) made of grass and professional straw-weaving craftsmen (工匠) during the Zhou Dynasty. Straw weaving is a method of making daily items or artworks. It was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage in 2008. Wu explains the process of straw weaving: choosing from materials is the first step of a process that may take several weeks, or even months to complete. You need to draw the piece on paper, which requires drawing skills. Next comes weaving, shaping and preserving of the work. Even by finishing that process, it does not mean that you will always create a good piece of work, and the hardest part is to make it lifelike. In the past, straw items could be found almost in every family in the countryside, in the form of straw hats and straw shoes, because they were practical in everyday life. But with the development of industry, many of these products are made in factories. This makes people gain little money, and there are only about 100 people joining in the work across the country. Wu says to a news reporter that more craftsmen should work together to make a difference to the spread of the traditional culture. Many hands make light work. 56．What may come into most people’s mind when thinking of wheat straw? 57．Where were the earliest straw-weaving works found? 58．How long may it take to choose from materials? 59．What is the hardest part of straw weaving? 60．What other advice would you give to craftsmen to spread the traditional culture? 六、短文填空(共10空；每空1分，计10分) China finally has its first male world chess champion!
