A. prepare B. was preparing C. am preparing D. will prepare 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——安迪，你看起来很累！怎么了？——我整晚都在准备我的报告。幸运的是，我已经完成了！ 考查时态。根据“I...for my report all night.”可知，此处表达整晚都在准备报告，应用过去进行时态，结构为：was/were+动词的现在分词，主语是I，be动词用was，prepare的现在分词是preparing。故选B。 3. — Listen!

A. as good as B. as well as C. so well as D. so good as 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：我两年前买了这个钱包，但它看起来和新的一样好，因为我用得很小心。 考查形容词的用法。as…as“和……一样”，用于肯定句或否定句；(not) so…as“不如……”，仅用于否定句。句子是肯定句，排除C和D。as good as几乎，和……一样好（good是形容词）；as well as也，又，和……一样好（well是副词）。根据“because I use it carefully.”可知，钱包像新的一样，用as good as，形容词good作系动词looks的表语。故选A。 5. —Can you tell me when the Boeing 737 MAX planes will be allowed to fly again, sir? —I’m afraid it’s still________ to talk about that.

Hope you have fun in our city. A. With pleasure B. My pleasure C. That’s right D.

The earliest paper cuts date back to the 4th century in China. In 2002, UNESCO listed China’s paper-cutting as a world cultural heritage (遗产). In Chinese culture, paper cuts are the symbol of happiness and good luck, and they have been used for decoration and design patterns (图案) throughout history. Paper cuts used for decoration are often seen on windows and gates. They are usually put up during holidays to bring good luck. The Chinese character Fu means good luck and it is often stuck on front doors upside down. It is believed that when Fu is put upside down, happiness arrives. The image of a fish often appears together with Fu, which shows we will have more than enough money to spend. Paper cuts are also used on presents. People use Fu to wrap (包装) presents to bring good luck to others. A present for parents with new-born babies might show a paper cut of children. In some designs, we can see a baby on a lotus flower. The name of this design is “lian sheng gui zi”, which means we wish that the parents would have more children. The image of a baby on an animal is popular as well. This animal is called “qi lin”, which is believed to have the power to bring children to the family. Paper cuts that show the Chinese character of double happiness are often used to celebrate weddings. People use them to decorate such occasions (场合) by putting them on walls, windows, doors and even furniture. Another kind of paper cuts are those used to make design patterns on clothing, such as the Chinese Fu, the image of dragon and flower patterns. They are very popular choices for clothes to wear. They are also sometimes used to decorate jewelry boxes. In the past, paper-cutting was all done by hand. Even a small mistake during the process can ruin (毁掉) the whole piece of work. Now there are factories for paper-cutting in China and paper-cutting has also changed from decoration to a kind of art. 29. The first paragraph is mainly about ________. A. the history of paper-cutting B. the occasions paper-cutting used in C. the problems modern paper-cutting faces D. the changes of paper-cutting 30. Why do Chinese people stick Fu upside down? A. Because it helps to drive evil spirits away. B. Because it represents the coming of happiness. C. Because it looks more beautiful in such a style. D. Because it expresses people's hope for a richer life. 31. Which paper cut can be given to parents with a new-born baby? A. B. C. D. 32. Which of the following is TRUE about Chinese paper-cutting? A. It has a long history of more than 2000 years. B. It is always used for decoration and design patterns. C. It is still all done by hand now because of art value. D. It is the symbol of good things only for festivals. 【答案】29. A 30. B 31. B 32.

The earliest paper cuts date back to the 4th century in China. In 2002, UNESCO listed China’s paper-cutting as a world cultural heritage (遗产).”可知，第一段主要介绍了剪纸的历史，包括其起源时间和被联合国教科文组织列为世界文化遗产的情况。故选A。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The Chinese character Fu means good luck and it is often stuck on front doors upside down. It is believed that when Fu is put upside down, happiness arrives.”可知，中国人把福字倒贴是因为这代表着幸福的到来。故选B。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“A present for parents with new-born babies might show a paper cut of children. In some designs, we can see a baby on a lotus flower. The name of this design is "lian sheng gui zi”, which means we wish that the parents would have more children.”，可知给新生儿父母礼物应是带有小孩图案的剪纸，所以应该选择有小孩和莲花图案的剪纸——莲生贵子，寓意着“多子”。故选B。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“In Chinese culture, paper cuts are the symbol of happiness and good luck, and they have been used for decoration and design patterns (图案) throughout history.”以及后文对剪纸用途的详细描述可知，剪纸在中国文化中一直被用于装饰和设计图案。故选B。 C Early on Wednesday morning, a big rocket called Long March-2F Y19 took off from Jiuquan in Northwest China. It carried three astronauts on a trip to the China Space Station. After about 10 minutes, the Shenzhou-19 spacecraft separated from the rocket and entered its designated orbit (轨道). This meant the launch was a success! The China Space Station will welcome the new Shenzhou-19 crew (机组人员), led by experienced astronaut Cai Xuzhe and newcomers Song Lingdong and female astronaut Wang Haoze, about 6.5 hours after takeoff. Commander (指令长) Cai is going back to space just 22 months after his last trip, which is a record for the shortest time between missions in the history of Chinese astronauts. Song and Wang, both born in 1990, are on their first space mission. Wang is also China’s first female spaceflight engineer. This is the fourth time that astronauts have flown to the space station to work and do experiments, and it’s the 33rd mission in China’s manned space program. The main tasks include switching (交换) crews with the Shenzhou-18 astronauts, staying on the station for six months, doing space experiments, going outside the spacecraft and so on. After launch, Shenzhou-19 will connect to the Tianhe module of the space station about 6.5 hours later. They will come back to Earth in late April or early May. For this mission, the developers made the Shenzhou-19 spacecraft better by improving its design, so it can carry more supplies (供给). This helps the astronauts and makes the space station work more effectively. 33. What does the underlined word “designated” mean in the second paragraph? A. named B. planned C. changed D. common 34. What do we know about Wang Haoze according to the article? A. She is China’s first female spaceflight engineer. B. She is the first female spaceman. C. She has flown to the space station four times. D. She is the youngest of the crew. 35. How long will the Shenzhou-19 crew stay on the space station? A. 6 months. B. 22 months. C. 6.5 hours. D. 33 hours. 36. Which of the following statements is TRUE? A. The Shenzhou-18 will return in May. B. Cai Xuzhe is on his first space mission. C. Shenzhou-19 separated from the rocket after 20 minutes. D. Improvements in the spacecraft design allow it to carry more supplies. 【答案】33. B 34. A 35. A 36. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了神舟十九号载人飞船发射成功，蔡旭哲、宋令东、王浩泽组成的乘组将进驻中国空间站，开展为期六个月的驻站、实验及出舱等任务。 【33题详解】 词义猜测题。根据 “This meant the launch was a success!” 和 “After about 10 minutes, the Shenzhou-19 spacecraft separated from the rocket and entered its designated orbit” 可猜测应是说飞船与火箭分离进入预定轨道，结合备选项可知与planned “被计划的” 意思一致。故选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据 “Wang is also China’s first female spaceflight engineer.”可知，王浩泽是中国首位女航天飞行工程师。故选A。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据 “The main tasks include... staying on the station for six months...”可知，神舟十九号机组人员将在空间站停留六个月。故选A。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据 “For this mission, the developers made the Shenzhou-19 spacecraft better by improving its design, so it can carry more supplies.”可知，研发人员通过改进设计，让神舟十九号飞船性能更优，使其能够携带更多补给。故选D。 D I jumped out from behind the tree. Jim looked at me with scared eyes. Then he fell to his knees, put his hands together and said, “Don’t hurt me! Please don’t! I’ve never hurt a ghost. I’ve always respected dead people. Go back to the river where you live.” “Jim, I am not dead,” I told him. He touched my arm. “You aren’t dead” he said, happy to look at me. I was just as happy to see him. I looked down at his campfire. “Let’s make some breakfast.” After we ate, we lay back for a bit. Jim asked, “Huck, if you’re here now, then who was killed at that hut (小屋)?” I told him the whole story. “You’re pretty smart,” he said. “Even Tom Sawyer can’t come up with a better plan than that.” “And what about you, Jim? Why are you here on the island?” He looked uneasy. “Maybe I’d better not tell.” “Why not?” I asked. “You won’t tell on (告发) me, will you?” he asked. “I promise I won’t.” Jim moved closer to me. “I ran away.” “Jim!” “Huck, you said you wouldn’t tell.” “Yeah, I promised,” I said, “and I’ll keep it.” “The thing is,” he told me, “Miss Watson always said she’d never sell me, but the other night I heard her tell the widow (寡妇) that she would sell me for $800.” “That’s a lot of money,” I said. The widow told Miss Watson she couldn’t do it, but I didn’t wait to hear what Miss Watson said. I climbed down the hill, stole a boat, and here I am.” “Well, I’m glad you’re here,” I told him. We stayed by the campfire for a while. Jim looked at the sky. The birds gathered together, and then they flew away. “The storm’s coming,” Jim said. “It’s going to be worse.” I looked at our blankets, the only protection we had. “Come on, Huck. I’ll show you something.” Jim led me to a small cave. We ate our dinner there. Pretty soon the storm came. It rained heavily, and the wind blew so hard that it would bend (折弯) those trees. We stayed there until the storm stopped. —Adapted from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn 37. Why was Jim afraid when he saw Huck at the beginning? A. He didn’t know Huck at all. B.

Go back to the river where you live.” 可推断Jim以为Huck已经死了，所以才会害怕。故选D。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Miss Watson always said she’d never sell me, but the other night I heard her tell the widow that she would sell me for $800” 可推断，Jim逃跑是因为害怕有一天会被卖掉。故选A。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据“He touched my arm. ‘You aren’t dead,’ ” “Huck, if you’re here now, then who was killed at that hut” “Why are you here on the island?” 和 “Jim led me to a small cave.

Pretty soon the storm came.” 可知故事发展的顺序是：首先Jim意识到Huck真的活着，然后Huck告诉Jim小屋发生的事，接着Jim告诉Huck他逃跑的原因，最后他们躲进小山洞躲避暴风雨。故选C。 【40题详解】 最佳标题题。根据全文可知文章主要讲述了Huck和Jim的相遇以及他们相遇之后两人的交流， 故选A。 第二节(共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项，有两项为多余选项。 How to improve your memory?

The speaker was delivering a speech about happiness. However, after a few hours, people gradually lost their attention. The speaker came up with an idea. He stopped his speech and asked all of the people to join in a group activity. He gave a single balloon to each person in the room. Each person was asked to write his or her name on the balloon with a black marker pen. Then, all of the balloons were collected and moved to another room. The 50 people were then let into the room and told to find the balloon that had their name written on it. Everyone rushed around, wildly searching for their balloon. People were bumping into and tripping (绊倒) over each other. But even after five minutes of searching, no one could find their own balloon. After seeing this, the speaker asked each person to collect a balloon and try to find the person whose name was written on it. Everyone started talking to each other and asking each other for their name. Within minutes, everyone had his or her own balloon. “Can you see what happened?” the speaker said. “The balloons are like the happiness we seek in our own lives. Everyone is busy looking for their own happiness, not caring what happens to others. But sometimes the best way to find happiness is to help others. Help them find happiness and you can find your own.” 64. Where did these 50 people write their names? _____________________________________________________________________________ 65.

And finding one’s own happiness may require self-exploration and personal growth rather than just helping others.）（言之合理即可） 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一个演讲者通过一个小游戏让听众意识到，帮助别人就能让自己快乐的道理。 【64题详解】 根据“Each person was asked to write his or her name on the balloon with a black marker pen.”可知，50个人用黑色记号笔把名字写在气球上。故填They wrote their names on the balloons. 【65题详解】 根据“The balloons are like the happiness we seek in our own lives.”可知，气球代表着我们在生活中追寻的幸福。故填The balloons stand for the happiness we seek in our own lives. 【66题详解】 本题为开放性问题，同意或不同意均可。同意的理由可围绕帮助他人能带来成就感和快乐，进而更容易找到自己的幸福；不同意的理由可以是人们自身事务繁忙，无暇帮助他人，且寻找幸福更多依靠自我探索和成长。可填Yes, I do.

In 2002, UNESCO listed China’s paper-cutting as a world cultural heritage (遗产). In Chinese culture, paper cuts are the symbol of happiness and good luck, and they have been used for decoration and design patterns (图案) throughout history. Paper cuts used for decoration are often seen on windows and gates. They are usually put up during holidays to bring good luck. The Chinese character Fu means good luck and it is often stuck on front doors upside down. It is believed that when Fu is put upside down, happiness arrives. The image of a fish often appears together with Fu, which shows we will have more than enough money to spend. Paper cuts are also used on presents. People use Fu to wrap (包装) presents to bring good luck to others. A present for parents with new-born babies might show a paper cut of children. In some designs, we can see a baby on a lotus flower. The name of this design is “lian sheng gui zi”, which means we wish that the parents would have more children. The image of a baby on an animal is popular as well. This animal is called “qi lin”, which is believed to have the power to bring children to the family. Paper cuts that show the Chinese character of double happiness are often used to celebrate weddings. People use them to decorate such occasions (场合) by putting them on walls, windows, doors and even furniture. Another kind of paper cuts are those used to make design patterns on clothing, such as the Chinese Fu, the image of dragon and flower patterns. They are very popular choices for clothes to wear. They are also sometimes used to decorate jewelry boxes. In the past, paper-cutting was all done by hand. Even a small mistake during the process can ruin (毁掉) the whole piece of work. Now there are factories for paper-cutting in China and paper-cutting has also changed from decoration to a kind of art. 29. The first paragraph is mainly about ________. A. the history of paper-cutting B. the occasions paper-cutting used in C the problems modern paper-cutting faces D. the changes of paper-cutting 30. Why do Chinese people stick Fu upside down? A. Because it helps to drive evil spirits away. B. Because it represents the coming of happiness. C. Because it looks more beautiful in such a style. D. Because it expresses people's hope for a richer life. 31. Which paper cut can be given to parents with a new-born baby? A. B. C. D. 32. Which of the following is TRUE about Chinese paper-cutting? A. It has a long history of more than 2000 years. B. It is always used for decoration and design patterns. C. It is still all done by hand now because of art value. D. It is the symbol of good things only for festivals. C Early on Wednesday morning, a big rocket called Long March-2F Y19 took off from Jiuquan in Northwest China. It carried three astronauts on a trip to the China Space Station. After about 10 minutes, the Shenzhou-19 spacecraft separated from the rocket and entered its designated orbit (轨道). This meant the launch was a success! The China Space Station will welcome the new Shenzhou-19 crew (机组人员), led by experienced astronaut Cai Xuzhe and newcomers Song Lingdong and female astronaut Wang Haoze, about 6.5 hours after takeoff. Commander (指令长) Cai is going back to space just 22 months after his last trip, which is a record for the shortest time between missions in the history of Chinese astronauts. Song and Wang, both born in 1990, are on their first space mission. Wang is also China’s first female spaceflight engineer. This is the fourth time that astronauts have flown to the space station to work and do experiments, and it’s the 33rd mission in China’s manned space program. The main tasks include switching (交换) crews with the Shenzhou-18 astronauts, staying on the station for six months, doing space experiments, going outside the spacecraft and so on. After launch, Shenzhou-19 will connect to the Tianhe module of the space station about 6.5 hours later. They will come back to Earth in late April or early May. For this mission, the developers made the Shenzhou-19 spacecraft better by improving its design, so it can carry more supplies (供给). This helps the astronauts and makes the space station work more effectively. 33. What does the underlined word “designated” mean in the second paragraph? A. named B. planned C. changed D. common 34. What do we know about Wang Haoze according to the article? A. She is China’s first female spaceflight engineer. B. She is the first female spaceman. C. She has flown to the space station four times. D. She is the youngest of the crew. 35. How long will the Shenzhou-19 crew stay on the space station? A. 6 months. B. 22 months. C. 6.5 hours. D. 33 hours. 36. Which of the following statements is TRUE? A The Shenzhou-18 will return in May. B. Cai Xuzhe is on his first space mission. C. Shenzhou-19 separated from the rocket after 20 minutes. D. Improvements in the spacecraft design allow it to carry more supplies. D I jumped out from behind the tree. Jim looked at me with scared eyes. Then he fell to his knees, put his hands together and said, “Don’t hurt me! Please don’t! I’ve never hurt a ghost. I’ve always respected dead people. Go back to the river where you live.” “Jim, I am not dead,” I told him. He touched my arm. “You aren’t dead,” he said, happy to look at me. I was just as happy to see him. I looked down at his campfire. “Let’s make some breakfast.” After we ate, we lay back for a bit. Jim asked, “Huck, if you’re here now, then who was killed at that hut (小屋)?” I told him the whole story. “You’re pretty smart,” he said. “Even Tom Sawyer can’t come up with a better plan than that.” “And what about you, Jim? Why are you here on the island?” He looked uneasy. “Maybe I’d better not tell.” “Why not?” I asked. “You won’t tell on (告发) me, will you?” he asked. “I promise I won’t.” Jim moved closer to me. “I ran away.” “Jim!” “Huck, you said you wouldn’t tell.” “Yeah, I promised,” I said, “and I’ll keep it.” “The thing is,” he told me, “Miss Watson always said she’d never sell me, but the other night I heard her tell the widow (寡妇) that she would sell me for $800.” “That’s a lot of money,” I said. The widow told Miss Watson she couldn’t do it, but I didn’t wait to hear what Miss Watson said. I climbed down the hill, stole a boat, and here I am.” “Well, I’m glad you’re here,” I told him. We stayed by the campfire for a while. Jim looked at the sky. The birds gathered together, and then they flew away. “The storm’s coming,” Jim said. “It’s going to be worse.” I looked at our blankets, the only protection we had. “Come on, Huck. I’ll show you something.” Jim led me to a small cave. We ate our dinner there. Pretty soon the storm came. It rained heavily, and the wind blew so hard that it would bend (折弯) those trees. We stayed there until the storm stopped. —Adapted from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn 37. Why was Jim afraid when he saw Huck at the beginning? A. He didn’t know Huck at all. B.
