My family was always very poor, and after my father died,we were poorer. We lived some miles from the village of New church, in an old house called Malkin Tower. It was dirty and cold. The rain came in through the windows and there were no doors. To the west,was the big hill called Pendle. Pendle Hill was beautiful. I loved Pendle Hill because it sat quietly all year and watched me. My story begins on the eighteenth day of March in the year 1612. I was nine years old, and my life began to change on that day. My mother and my grandmother were ill and they sat on the floor, with their dogs, near the little fire. My sister Alizon wanted to go out. “I’m going to look for bread,” she said. My brother James sat near the fire, his mouth open. “Go and look for bread,” he said. “Go and look for bread,” James often said things again and again. Alizon ran out of the house and I followed her. “Go and look for bread!” James called. Alizon began to go east, up the hill and past the big trees behind Malkin Tower. Alizon walked fast. She wore a coat and some shoes, but I had no coat and no shoes. “Please wait a minute!” I called to my sister. “I want to come with you.” “No!” Alizon cried. “Go back. I don’t want you.” Suddenly, a dog ran in front of Alizon. “Good dog, good dog!” Alizon called. The dog ran to her and she put her hand on its head. It was my sister’s dog and it liked her. It was a big dog with big teeth and I didn’t like it because it was always hungry. (adapted from the witches of Pendle) 24．In Paragraph 1, the writer mainly talks about _______.

My family was always very poor, and after my father died,we were poorer. We lived some miles from the village of New church, in an old house called Malkin Tower. It was dirty and cold. The rain came in through the windows and there were no doors”（我出生于1603年。我的家庭一直很穷，父亲去世后，我们更穷了。我们住在离新教堂村几英里远的一座名叫马尔金塔的老房子里。又脏又冷。雨是从窗户进来的，没有门）可知第一段作者在讲述她的生活状况，故选B。 25． 细节理解题。根据“ ‘Go and look for bread,’ James often said things again and again.”和“‘Go and look for bread!’ James called.”可知詹姆斯经常喊“去找面包”是因为他经常渴望面包。故选D。 26．推理判断题。根据“My story begins on the eighteenth day of March in the year 1612. I was nine years old, and my life began to change on that day. My mother and my grandmother were ill and they sat on the floor, with their dogs, near the little fire.”（我的故事开始于1612年3月18日。那年我九岁，我的生活从那一天开始改变。我母亲和祖母病了，她们带着狗坐在小火炉旁的地板上。）可推断这可能是一个大事件的开始。故选C。 C Chinese athletes made great break-throughs at the Paris Olympics, with Zheng Qinwen becoming the first Asian tennis player to win gold in women’s singles and swimmer Pan Zhanle breaking the world record in men’s 100-meter freestyle. The question now is how these rising stars can grow into global (全球的) sports heroes. The rise of Zheng and Pan in Paris repeated the victory of past Chinese sports heroes like Yao Ming, Liu Xiang, and Li Na. Yao Ming made great achievements in the NBA, Liu Xiang set a world record in men’s 110m hurdles, and Li Na won medals at the French and Australian Opens, inspiring (激励) countless fans and athletes. However, to become global sports heroes, Zheng and Pan should follow such rules: Firstly, they should always do well in their sports. Continuous top-level performance is important. Secondly, keeping an active public image (形象) and high media visibility (媒体曝光率) is necessary, along with building a large fan base. They should have an attractive personality, inspire teammates and fans, and show strong role model qualities. Good communication with media and supporters, as well as abilities in cross-cultural communication, is also important to global influence. Lastly, a strong support system is necessary, including training, technology, logistics, and commercial promotion (商业宣传) teams. They should try to spread their active influence beyond (超越) sports into social, economic, cultural, and public service fields. In the present global sports environment, Chinese athletes with important international influence can serve as a bridge for the world to understand China. 27．Zheng Qinwen and Pan Zhanle are mentioned in the first paragraph to _________.

Shyness means feeling frightened when you’re the center of attention. In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes, even the great people in history. When Thomas Edison was young, he loved Shakespeare very much. He wanted to act in his play. But he was too shy. He didn’t know what to do when there were people around. Later, he had to give up. 32 . Some experts say shy people are cleverer because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. 33 . But some become so shy that they can’t do the things they want to do. This kind of shyness can be more serious. Here are some good ways to make you braver. ● Tell people you are shy. This can make others understand you better and help you easier in talks. ● 34 . People think you are friendly and easy to talk to when you smile. ● 35 . Begin your talk with saying something nice about people around you. It’s very helpful for keeping your talk. ● Put your attention somewhere else. Think more about ways to enjoy the party or the game. Don’t waste time worrying about your looks or whether people like you or not. A．Try to smile more B．If your answer is “yes”, you get really shy C．I just told myself to do better the next time D．It isn’t a very big problem E．Learn to be a good talker F．Reading the newspaper would help us learn more G．But shyness didn’t stop him from becoming a great inventor 【答案】31．B 32．G 33．D 34．A 35．E 【导语】本文就如何避免害羞让自己变得更勇敢提出几点建议。 31．根据上文“Are you too nervous to work out the problem when your teacher asks you to come to the blackboard?”被老师点名到黑板前，是否太紧张得无法解答问题。下文“Shyness means feeling frightened when you’re the center of attention.”解释“害羞”的情绪，可知，此处与“害羞”相关。选项B“如果你的回答是‘是的’，你真地是非常害羞”符合语境。故选B。 32．根据上文“When Thomas Edison was young, he loved Shakespeare very much. He wanted to act in his play. But he was too shy. He didn’t know what to do when there were people around. Later, he had to give up.”讲述爱迪生年轻时因害羞放弃参演莎士比亚戏剧，可知此处是与爱迪生有关的句子。选项G“但羞怯并没有阻止他成为一名伟大的发明家”。故选G。 33．下文“But some become so shy that they can’t do the things they want to do. This kind of shyness can be more serious.”可知，但是有些人因为害羞，不能做他们想做的事情，这种害羞可能更为严重。根据“Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy.”害羞的人也善于与他人合作，他们会脸红，说话会断句，可知此处讲述“不严重的害羞”。选项D“这不是什么大问题”符合语境。故选D。 34．根据文中“People think you are friendly and easy to talk to when you smile”微笑会让人们认为你很友好，很容易交谈，可知此处指“要多微笑”。选项A“尽量多微笑”符合语境。故选A。 35．根据文中“Begin your talk with saying something nice about people around you”开始谈话时，先赞誉周围人，可知此处指“要学会交谈”。选项E“学会做一个优秀的谈话者”符合语境。故选E。 四、词汇运用（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 从方框中选择恰当的词或短语并用其正确的形式填空（每个词或短语只能用一次)。 [trʌst]        fall behind        agree with        appear         value promise     of one’s age     to our surprise       work     a great deal of 36．I do believe friendship needs , or it will break easily. 37．I my English teacher that using mind maps can help us learn better. 38．— are easily made, but not easily kept. —That’s true.

We lived some miles from the village of New church, in an old house called Malkin Tower. It was dirty and cold. The rain came in through the windows and there were no doors. To the west,was the big hill called Pendle. Pendle Hill was beautiful. I loved Pendle Hill because it sat quietly all year and watched me. My story begins on the eighteenth day of March in the year 1612. I was nine years old, and my life began to change on that day. My mother and my grandmother were ill and they sat on the floor, with their dogs, near the little fire. My sister Alizon wanted to go out. “I’m going to look for bread,” she said. My brother James sat near the fire, his mouth open. “Go and look for bread,” he said. “Go and look for bread,” James often said things again and again. Alizon ran out of the house and I followed her. “Go and look for bread!” James called. Alizon began to go east, up the hill and past the big trees behind Malkin Tower. Alizon walked fast. She wore a coat and some shoes, but I had no coat and no shoes. “Please wait a minute!” I called to my sister. “I want to come with you.” “No!” Alizon cried. “Go back. I don’t want you.” Suddenly, a dog ran in front of Alizon. “Good dog, good dog!” Alizon called. The dog ran to her and she put her hand on its head. It was my sister’s dog and it liked her. It was a big dog with big teeth and I didn’t like it because it was always hungry. (adapted from the witches of Pendle) 24．In Paragraph 1, the writer mainly talks about _______.

The question now is how these rising stars can grow into global (全球的) sports heroes. The rise of Zheng and Pan in Paris repeated the victory of past Chinese sports heroes like Yao Ming, Liu Xiang, and Li Na. Yao Ming made great achievements in the NBA, Liu Xiang set a world record in men’s 110m hurdles, and Li Na won medals at the French and Australian Opens, inspiring (激励) countless fans and athletes. However, to become global sports heroes, Zheng and Pan should follow such rules: Firstly, they should always do well in their sports. Continuous top-level performance is important. Secondly, keeping an active public image (形象) and high media visibility (媒体曝光率) is necessary, along with building a large fan base. They should have an attractive personality, inspire teammates and fans, and show strong role model qualities. Good communication with media and supporters, as well as abilities in cross-cultural communication, is also important to global influence. Lastly, a strong support system is necessary, including training, technology, logistics, and commercial promotion (商业宣传) teams. They should try to spread their active influence beyond (超越) sports into social, economic, cultural, and public service fields. In the present global sports environment, Chinese athletes with important international influence can serve as a bridge for the world to understand China. 27．Zheng Qinwen and Pan Zhanle are mentioned in the first paragraph to _________. A．draw readers’ attention to the Olympics B．set as good example to learn from C．start the main topic as examples D．show China’s achievement in sport 28．From the fourth paragraph, we can know that Zheng and Pan need to ________. ①appear often on TV or Internet         ②speak some foreign language well ③keep a good image                   ④advertise some products ⑤donate much money to the Hope Project A．①②③ B．①④⑤ C．②③④ D．③④⑤ 29．What’s the writer’s opinion of those super sports stars like Zheng and Pan? A．They can keep famous all over the world for a long time. B．They can have a more fantastic and expensive training center. C．They can achieve great success because they have great talent. D．They can make more great achievements in making foreigners understand China. 30．What is the best title of the passage?
