But her family said, “You’re too small and too young.” Jia felt unhappy after hearing these words. She watched her busy parents and thought, “I can do something too.” Jia started looking for chances everywhere. In the kitchen, the chef was busy cooking, and Jia tried to help cut vegetables. But the chef smiled and said, “You’re too small for this.” Then Jia went to set the tables, but a waiter stopped her and said, “Sweetheart, don’t get in the way.” Just when Jia felt sad, the sound of drums and cheers filled the air. A lion dance performance started, and Jia ran to watch. There was a sea of people and they pushed Jia to the edge of the performance area. A dancer noticed her and asked, “Would you like to join us?” Jia thought for a moment and then said yes. Jia moved like a little lion, following the music with every step.

It’s not there without a reason! It does amazing things when the lift moves. Let’s find out about it! A lift is a small, closed place. There isn’t much fresh air inside. For some people, being in a lift might make them feel scared or uneasy. They may even breathe fast sometimes. They can’t see what’s happening outside as the lift doors close and it starts moving. When they look at the mirror in the lift, it can make them feel there is more space and it can help to reduce worry. The mirror in the lift also helps you see what others are doing. For example, you can see others’ facial expressions and what their hands are doing. This makes you feel safer too. Because of this, it can help stop someone from stealing. It’s easy to get bored in a lift, especially when it stops often. So the mirror is a great way to have fun. You can fix your hair in the mirror. Or you can quickly check if your clothes are tidy. Without a mirror, everyone would have to stare (盯着) at the floor. When you “play” with the mirror, time passes quickly. You don’t feel like you are wasting your time in the lift. 49. Why is the mirror helpful for some people in the lift? A. It provides fresh air. B. It reduces their worry. C. It makes doors open fast. D. It shows floor numbers. 50. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. The mirror in the lift. B. The closed lift. C. Others’ facial expressions. D. Someone who steals. 51. When do people easily feel bored in the lift? A. When it stops often. B. When doors are open. C. When there’s light. D. When it moves slowly. 52. What is the main purpose of writing this text? A. To teach people how to use mirrors in lifts. B. To explain the problem of small lift space. C. To recommend places to put mirrors. D. To tell why there are mirrors in lifts. 【答案】49. B 50. A 51. A 52.

In a video, a worker Melissa Stanley wore a red fox mask (面罩) while feeding the baby fox. The baby fox sat on top of a large fox toy looking like her mother. The centre explained that they wore masks and tried to keep quiet so the baby fox wouldn’t get used to humans. This way, she could go back to the wild easily one day. The baby fox got to the centre after a man walking his dog found her. She was weak and couldn’t even open her eyes, so the man brought her here. At that moment, she was less than 24 hours old. Workers at the centre tried to find her mother but failed. “Our goal is to help animals go back to the wild. This helps them live better, find their friends, and have babies to make their families grow,” Stanley said. “It’s important for nature and our world.” Then, the workers moved the baby fox to the Animal Education and Rescue Organization. The team there taught her survival (生存) skills, such as finding small food. It finally sent her back into the wild when she became strong enough to live alone. 53. Who found the baby fox? (不超过5个词) _________________________________ 54. What is the goal of the Richmond Wildlife Centre? (不超过10个词) _________________________________ 55 What can we learn from the text? (不超过10个词) _________________________________ 【答案】53. A man walking his dog. 54. To help animals go back to the wild. 55. We should help animals live in the wild. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了美国弗吉尼亚州里士满野生动物中心的工作人员如何精心照顾一只孤儿小狐狸，并最终帮助它重返野外的故事。 【53题详解】 根据“The baby fox got to the centre after a man walking his dog found her.”可知，一名遛狗的男子发现了这只小狐狸。故填A man walking his dog. 【54题详解】 根据“Our goal is to help animals go back to the wild.”可知，里士满野生动物中心的目标是帮助动物重返野外。故填To help animals go back to the wild. 【55题详解】 根据“Our goal is to help animals go back to the wild. This helps them live better, find their friends, and have babies to make their families grow”可知，我们应该帮助动物在野外生活。故填We should help animals live in the wild. 第四部分 写（共两大题，满分25分） Ⅳ. 单词拼写（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 根据首字母及汉语提示，完成下列单词的拼写，使句意明确，语言通顺。 56.

The more we practice, the stronger our brains will be. You can take a few deep breaths and find something that makes you feel good.” The next week, Jane fell over.

It does amazing things when the lift moves. Let’s find out about it! A lift is a small, closed place. There isn’t much fresh air inside. For some people, being in a lift might make them feel scared or uneasy. They may even breathe fast sometimes. They can’t see what’s happening outside as the lift doors close and it starts moving. When they look at the mirror in the lift, it can make them feel there is more space and it can help to reduce worry. The mirror in the lift also helps you see what others are doing. For example, you can see others’ facial expressions and what their hands are doing. This makes you feel safer too. Because of this, it can help stop someone from stealing. It’s easy to get bored in a lift, especially when it stops often. So the mirror is a great way to have fun. You can fix your hair in the mirror. Or you can quickly check if your clothes are tidy. Without a mirror, everyone would have to stare (盯着) at the floor. When you “play” with the mirror, time passes quickly. You don’t feel like you are wasting your time in the lift. 49. Why is the mirror helpful for some people in the lift? A. It provides fresh air. B. It reduces their worry. C. It makes doors open fast. D. It shows floor numbers. 50. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. The mirror in the lift. B. The closed lift. C. Others’ facial expressions. D. Someone who steals. 51. When do people easily feel bored in the lift? A. When it stops often. B. When doors are open. C. When there’s light. D. When it moves slowly. 52. What is the main purpose of writing this text? A. To teach people how to use mirrors in lifts. B. To explain the problem of small lift space. C. To recommend places to put mirrors. D. To tell why there are mirrors in lifts. 第二节 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求） F At the Richmond Wildlife Centre in Virginia, US, workers did their best to take special care of an orphaned (孤儿的) baby fox. In a video, a worker Melissa Stanley wore a red fox mask (面罩) while feeding the baby fox. The baby fox sat on top of a large fox toy looking like her mother. The centre explained that they wore masks and tried to keep quiet so the baby fox wouldn’t get used to humans. This way, she could go back to the wild easily one day. The baby fox got to the centre after a man walking his dog found her. She was weak and couldn’t even open her eyes, so the man brought her here. At that moment, she was less than 24 hours old. Workers at the centre tried to find her mother but failed. “Our goal is to help animals go back to the wild. This helps them live better, find their friends, and have babies to make their families grow,” Stanley said. “It’s important for nature and our world.” Then, the workers moved the baby fox to the Animal Education and Rescue Organization. The team there taught her survival (生存) skills, such as finding small food. It finally sent her back into the wild when she became strong enough to live alone. 53. Who found the baby fox?
