C The Water-Splashing Festival (泼水节) is a really fun time for the Dai people in Yunnan, China. It happens every spring, around April, when the weather is just right. It began in Persia (波斯) and became a custom of the Dai people in the 12th century. The festival is also celebrated in other countries like Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Myanmar. People clean their homes, cut their hair, and take a bath before the festival. Activities include sending lanterns into the air and watching boat races on the Lancang River. There are also colorful parades where people wear traditional (传统的) Dai clothes, dance, and sing songs. It’s a special time for families and friends to get together, eat good food, and give gifts. At night, they write wishes on lanterns and flew them up into the sky along the river. The best part of the festival is, of course, water splashing. Kids, adults, everyone joins in. They use buckets, water guns, and even big hosepipes. They fill the streets, chasing and playing with each other. It’s so much fun, with lots of laughter and excitement. Everyone gets wet from head to foot. They think the water washes away bad luck and brings good things. The festival is very important to the Dai people because it’s a way to remember their ancestors (祖先) and ask for good luck. By splashing water, they’re cleaning themselves and asking for blessings (祝福). The wetter, the better! 28．What may the weather be like during the Water-Splashing Festival? A．Cold. B．Warm. C．Hot. D．Snowy. 29．People do all the following activities for the festival except (除了) ________. A．Wearing traditional clothes. B．Flying up lanterns into the sky. C．Having meals with families or friends.

B．They may become more popular among the people. C．Maybe they will get more blessings. D．Maybe they will win more prizes (奖赏). D Now more and more children seem to get lost in a “sea of digital technology (数字科技)”. As they use digital technology too much, they are losing their ability to do simple things. They can’t make toys themselves with hands or help mum cook dinner. And worst of all, they seem to be losing interest in communicating with (交流) others. “I have talked with a number of teachers. They care about the increasing (增长的) numbers of children who can play with computers or smart phones, but have few or no skills to play with making things.” said a Teacher, Colin Kinney. “Many children can’t communicate with other children but their parents are proud of their ability to use a computer or a smart phone.” Instead of playing with other children, more and more children are choosing to stay indoors and quietly play on a tablet (平板电脑) on weekends and after school. How can a child grow up to be a very good artist if he doesn’t learn how to use a paintbrush and develop his painting skill? How can a child learn to make friends as he gets older if he doesn’t learn to communicate with others at a young age? Digital technology can be used for good or bad. We can use a stone to break a window or build a house. We shouldn’t blame the children. We should help them make right choices. It’s necessary for children to know how to use digital technology in today’s world, but what is more important, we should encourage them to develop social abilities, which will be useful to them when they grow up. 32．What’s the worst problem in the first paragraph? A．Children can’t make things themselves. B．Children make too many friends online. C．Children don’t want to communicate with others. D．Children don’t like helping Mum cook meals at home. 33．According to Colin Kinney, which of the following is TRUE? A．Teachers don’t notice that children have few skills to make things. B．Many parents are very happy that their kids can use digital technology. C．Many teachers don’t care if children can play computers or tablets. D．Some parents are worried that their kids use digital technology too much. 34．What does the underlined word “blame” mean in Chinese? A．表扬 B．原谅 C．评价 D．责怪 35．What does the writer mainly want to tell us? A．It’s very important for children to have social skills. B．It’s very helpful for children to do some housework. C．It’s necessary for parents to learn to use digital technology. D．It’s difficult for teachers to make right choices for their children. 四、还原句子(共4小题;每小题1.5分，满分6分) 阅读下面短文从短文后所给的六个选项中选出四个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Five habits (习惯) to keep you happy Daily life can be made happier. That is to say, we can choose to be happy, and we can do a lot to add happiness to ourselves. Here are a few habits for more happiness in daily life.Fill the house with fresh flowers.

The people of China have been telling their story for a very long time. One day, Zhou Yu asked Zhuge Liang to make 100,000 arrows (箭) for him. Zhuge Liang confidently replied, “No problem! I’ll bring you 100,000 arrows in just three days.” To keep his promise (诺言), Zhuge Liang had a clever plan. He asked his soldiers (士兵) to fill twenty big boats with lots of strawmen. On the third day, very early in the morning, they made the boats go towards the camps of Cao Cao’s soldiers, which were on the other side of the river. When they reached the camps, Zhuge Liang’s soldiers started shouting loudly and playing their drums (鼓). Cao Cao’s soldiers heard the noise and thought they were under attack (攻击). But they couldn’t see clearly who was attacking them because of the thick fog on the river. Not wanting to take any chances, Cao Cao asked his soldiers to shoot arrows at the sounds of the shouts and drums. To their surprise, the arrows started hitting the strawmen on Zhuge Liang’s boats. Very soon, the boats were filled with arrows. After that, Zhuge Liang’s soldiers turned the boats around and shouted back, “Thank you for your arrows, Cao Cao!” Zhuge Liang had successfully collected more than 100,000 arrows. He then took all the arrows and gave them to Zhou Yu, showing that he could keep his promise. 40．How many days did Zhuge Liang have to make the arrows? 41．How did Zhuge Liang collect the arrows? 42．Why did Cao Cao ask his soldiers to shoot arrows at the sounds of the shouts and drums? 43．What do you think of Zhuge Liang? Why? 六、综合填空(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Your school days should be some of the best and 44 (happy) days of your life.

A．the; the B．an; a C．a; an D．a; the 【答案】C 【详解】句意：那个穿制服的男孩是一个诚实的学生，大家都信任他。 考查冠词。a用于辅音音素开头的单词前；an用于元音音素开头的单词前；the表示泛指。in a uniform“穿制服的”，第一空用a；根据句意可知，第二空应填“一个”诚实的学生，honest为元音音素开头的单词，用an。故选C。 2．Don’t just believe the advertisement. That medicine doesn’t work ________ it says. A．as better as B．as good as C．so good as D．so well as 【答案】D 【详解】句意：不要只相信广告。那药不如它说的那么有效。 考查原级比较。not as/so+副词/形容词(原级)+as...表示“不如……”，所以排除选项A，根据空前work可知，此处需用副词修饰动词。故选D。 3．—Halloween is coming, and I have to ________ lots of time making a pumpkin lantern for the party. —Plan your time well.

A．take; had better B．cost; should C．spend; had better D．spend; can 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——万圣节快到了，我得花很多时间为聚会做南瓜灯。——好好规划你的时间。你最好耐心点。 考查动词辨析。take花费（时间），常用句型为it takes sb+时间+to do sth；cost花费（钱），主语为物；spend花费（时间或钱），主语为人，常用句型为spend+时间或钱+doing/on sth；had better最好；should应该；can可以，能够。根据“and I have to...lots of time making a pumpkin lantern for the party”可知，sb spend time doing sth“某人花费时间做某事”，故第一空应用spend，排除选项A和B；根据“Plan your time well”可知，最好耐心一些，故第二空应用had better。故选C。 4．The train is coming. Let’s ________ one by one. A．get it on B．get on it C．get it off D．get off it 【答案】B 【详解】句意：火车就要来了。我们一个接一个上车吧。 考查动词短语。get on上车；get off下车。根据“the train is coming.”可知，火车就要来了，应该是要上车，get on中的on是介词，不是副词，因此代词it应放在on之后。故选B。 5．Boys and girls, the more ________ you are during the exam, the ________ mistakes you’ll make. A．carefully; less B．carelessly; fewer C．careful; more D．careless; more 【答案】D 【详解】句意：同学们，你们在考试中越粗心，犯的错误就越多。 考查比较级的用法。carefully仔细地，副词；carelessly粗心地，副词；careful小心的，形容词；careless粗心的，形容词；less更少的，修饰不可数名词；fewer更少的，修饰可数名词复数；more更多的。此处为“the+比较级，the+比较级”的用法，表示“越……，就越……”。根据“the more...you are during the exam”可知，第一个空需填一个形容词，所以排除选项A和B；根据备选项C和D，可知，空二应用more，根据“the more mistakes you’ll make”可知，第一个空表示越粗心。故选D。 6．—Not only I but also my sister ________ good at English. —That’s good. Learning foreign languages ________ great fun. A．is; is B．is; are C．are; are D．are; is 【答案】A 【详解】句意：——不仅我，我妹妹也擅长英语。——那很好。学习外语很有趣。 考查主谓一致。not only...but also...连接主语时，谓语动词遵循“就近原则”。第一个空，be动词的数与其最近的主语“my sister”保持一致，因此用单数形式“is”；第二个空，动名词短语“Learning foreign languages”作主语，be动词也用单数形式“is”。故选A。 7．The boy with no ________ of time is often late for school. A．interest B．way C．sense D．plan 【答案】C 【详解】句意：这个没有时间观念的男孩经常上学迟到。 考查名词辨析。interest兴趣；way方式；sense观念；plan计划。根据“is often late for school”可知，这个男孩没有时间观念，have no sense of time指“没有时间观念”。故选C。 8．—Who taught ________ skiing? —Nobody. They learnt all by ________. A．their; themselves B．them; themselves C．their; them D．them; them 【答案】B 【详解】句意：——谁教他们滑雪？——没有人。他们都是自学的。 考查代词用法。their他们的，形容词性物主代词；themselves他们自己，反身代词；them他们，宾格。第一空作动词taught的宾语，所以用人称代词宾格形式them；第二空中，learn by oneself表示“自学”，所以使用反身代词themselves。故选B。 9．—Do you know Shanghai is one of ________ cities in the world? —Yes, it’s bigger than ________ city in China. A．the biggest; any other B．the biggest; any C．bigger; any other D．bigger; the other 【答案】A 【详解】句意：——你知道上海是世界上最大的城市之一吗？——是的，它比中国的任何其他城市都大。 考查形容词最高级及比较级。“one of the+形容词最高级+名词复数”表示“最……的……之一”，第一空填the biggest，排除C和D；第二空用“比较级+than any other+名词”结构，表示“比其余任何一个……都……”，排除B。故选A。 10．—What do you think of your new job? —________. I am thinking of changing another job. A．Pretty nice B．Can’t be better C．Can’t be worse D．Not too bad 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——你觉得你的新工作怎么样？——不能更糟了。我在考虑换一份工作。 考查情景交际。Pretty nice很好；Can’t be better不能再好了；Can’t be worse不能更糟了；Not too bad还不错。根据“I am thinking of changing another job.”，可知，我在考虑换一份工作，所以觉得新工作不好。故选C。 二、完形填空(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A long time ago, there was a seed (种子).

The festival is also celebrated in other countries like Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Myanmar. People clean their homes, cut their hair, and take a bath before the festival.

The best part of the festival is, of course, water splashing. Kids, adults, everyone joins in. They use buckets, water guns, and even big hosepipes. They fill the streets, chasing and playing with each other. It’s so much fun, with lots of laughter and excitement. Everyone gets wet from head to foot. They think the water washes away bad luck and brings good things. The festival is very important to the Dai people because it’s a way to remember their ancestors (祖先) and ask for good luck.

As they use digital technology too much, they are losing their ability to do simple things. They can’t make toys themselves with hands or help mum cook dinner. And worst of all, they seem to be losing interest in communicating with (交流) others. “I have talked with a number of teachers. They care about the increasing (增长的) numbers of children who can play with computers or smart phones, but have few or no skills to play with making things.” said a Teacher, Colin Kinney. “Many children can’t communicate with other children but their parents are proud of their ability to use a computer or a smart phone.” Instead of playing with other children, more and more children are choosing to stay indoors and quietly play on a tablet (平板电脑) on weekends and after school. How can a child grow up to be a very good artist if he doesn’t learn how to use a paintbrush and develop his painting skill? How can a child learn to make friends as he gets older if he doesn’t learn to communicate with others at a young age? Digital technology can be used for good or bad. We can use a stone to break a window or build a house. We shouldn’t blame the children. We should help them make right choices. It’s necessary for children to know how to use digital technology in today’s world, but what is more important, we should encourage them to develop social abilities, which will be useful to them when they grow up. 32．What’s the worst problem in the first paragraph? A．Children can’t make things themselves. B．Children make too many friends online. C．Children don’t want to communicate with others. D．Children don’t like helping Mum cook meals at home. 33．According to Colin Kinney, which of the following is TRUE? A．Teachers don’t notice that children have few skills to make things. B．Many parents are very happy that their kids can use digital technology. C．Many teachers don’t care if children can play computers or tablets. D．Some parents are worried that their kids use digital technology too much. 34．What does the underlined word “blame” mean in Chinese? A．表扬 B．原谅 C．评价 D．责怪 35．What does the writer mainly want to tell us? A．It’s very important for children to have social skills. B．It’s very helpful for children to do some housework. C．It’s necessary for parents to learn to use digital technology. D．It’s difficult for teachers to make right choices for their children. 【答案】32．C 33．B 34．D 35．A 【导语】本文讲了过度使用数字科技，儿童动手能力和社交能力下降，应引导合理使用，培养社交能力。 32．细节理解题。根据“And worst of all, they seem to be losing interest in communicating with (交流) others.”可知，最糟糕的是他们似乎失去了和别人交流的兴趣，故选C。 33．推理判断题。根据“Many children can’t communicate with other children but their parents are proud of their ability to use a computer or a smart phone.”可知，父母自豪地谈论他们的孩子使用电脑或智能手机的能力，可推断出许多父母很高兴他们的孩子可以使用数字技术，故选B。 34．词句猜测题。根据“We shouldn’t blame the children. We should help them make right choices.”可知，不能责怪孩子们，而是要帮助他们做出正确的选择，所以划线单词blame表示“责怪”，故选D。 35．主旨大意题。根据全文及“but what is more important, we should encourage them to develop social abilities, which will be useful to them when they grow up”可知，作者认为要培养孩子们的社交技能，这对他们的成长有好处，故选A。 四、还原句子(共4小题;每小题1.5分，满分6分) 阅读下面短文从短文后所给的六个选项中选出四个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Five habits (习惯) to keep you happy Daily life can be made happier.

I’ll bring you 100,000 arrows in just three days.” To keep his promise (诺言), Zhuge Liang had a clever plan. He asked his soldiers (士兵) to fill twenty big boats with lots of strawmen. On the third day, very early in the morning, they made the boats go towards the camps of Cao Cao’s soldiers, which were on the other side of the river. When they reached the camps, Zhuge Liang’s soldiers started shouting loudly and playing their drums (鼓). Cao Cao’s soldiers heard the noise and thought they were under attack (攻击). But they couldn’t see clearly who was attacking them because of the thick fog on the river. Not wanting to take any chances, Cao Cao asked his soldiers to shoot arrows at the sounds of the shouts and drums. To their surprise, the arrows started hitting the strawmen on Zhuge Liang’s boats. Very soon, the boats were filled with arrows. After that, Zhuge Liang’s soldiers turned the boats around and shouted back, “Thank you for your arrows, Cao Cao!” Zhuge Liang had successfully collected more than 100,000 arrows. He then took all the arrows and gave them to Zhou Yu, showing that he could keep his promise. 40．How many days did Zhuge Liang have to make the arrows? 41．How did Zhuge Liang collect the arrows? 42．Why did Cao Cao ask his soldiers to shoot arrows at the sounds of the shouts and drums? 43．What do you think of Zhuge Liang?
