It’s always a hot topic in our daily life. Different people may have different answers. Since the Internet came into being, it has brought us pleasure and tears. Today, let’s take a look at some things that are disappearing as the Internet grows up. When modern people need to record some important things quickly, they don’t find a pen and a piece of paper to write, but to open their mobile phone or computer to record. As a result, it’s common for many people to “pick up the pen but forget words”. Perhaps, in a few years, will pen and paper disappear? As people more and more lose themselves in the online world, the real-looking photos disappear and they can only watch the beautiful pictures on the Internet. If one day you send a real photo in your circle of friends, others will even think if it is a photo to make fun of. Now everyone can get digital (数字的) maps in a few seconds by using computers or mobile phones. They are easy and fast for users. Do you remember the last time to look at a paper map? After a busy day for the whole family, people used to watch TV together, share information and express feelings. Nowadays, at home, a person with a mobile phone is the whole world. 26. How do people record anything important now? A. By writing it on paper. B. By remembering it in mind. C. By using the mobile phones or computers. 27. Which of the following best describes (描述) most photos online now? A. Funny and true. B. Beautiful but not real. C. Ugly but true. 28. What did people use to do after a busy day for the whole family? A. Share information and express feelings. B. Play computer games. C. Lose themselves in the online world. 29. What’s the structure(结构) of the text? A. ①/②/③④⑤⑥ B. ①/②③④⑤/⑥ C. ①②/③④⑤/⑥ 30. After reading the text, what can you infer (推断)? A. The paper maps aren’t useful since they appear. B. People don’t need to learn how to write the words now. C. People prefer playing with the mobile phone instead of talking with families. 【答案】26. C 27. B 28. A 29. A 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讨论了互联网发展带来的变化，包括记录方式、照片真实性、地图使用和家庭交流等方面的改变。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据“When modern people need to record some important things quickly, they don’t find a pen and a piece of paper to write, but to open their mobile phone or computer to record.”可知，现在人们用手机或电脑记录重要事情。故选C。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“As people more and more lose themselves in the online world, the real-looking photos disappear and they can only watch the beautiful pictures on the Internet.”可知，现在网上的照片美丽但不真实。故选B。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“people used to watch TV together, share information and express feelings.”可知，过去全家人忙碌一天后会一起看电视、分享信息和表达感情。故选A。 【29题详解】 篇章结构题。文章第一段引出话题，第二段提出随着互联网发展一些事物正在消失，后面几段分别列举了钢笔和纸、真实照片、纸质地图和家庭交流的例子。因此结构是①/②/③④⑤⑥。故选A。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Nowadays, at home, a person with a mobile phone is the whole world.”可以推断，现在人们更喜欢玩手机而不是与家人交流。故选C。 D Once a little weed (杂草) grew in a field. There were many tall and beautiful flowers around it. Lots of bees and butterflies came to them because of their nice smells and bright colours. The little weed wasn’t satisfied, because its flowers were tiny and simple. One spring morning, three children came to play in the field. “Let’s pick some flowers for our grandma!” said one. “That’s a good idea!” said another. “She will love all these bright and beautiful flowers!” “What about that one?” the youngest child said, pointing at the little weed. “Forget it!” laughed the oldest brother. “That’s just a useless weed!” Hearing this, the little weed felt even worse. “Am I really useless?” it asked itself, “Why was I put on the Earth?” In winter, all flowers were gone, only the little weed stood alone in the field. Just at that time, it noticed some birds coming above the field. “We are hungry!” they shouted. The little weed felt sorry for the poor birds and called out to them, “Hey! Down here! I have pods (豆荚) that you can eat!” “You’re so kind!” The birds ate up the seeds (种子) in the pods thankfully. “They’re delicious. We can’t find anything better than what you gave us!” This made the little weed pleased and confident. “At last, I have found out what I am good for!” the little weed said. 31. Why did lots of bees and butterflies come to the flowers? ________________________________________________________________________ 32.

It finally felt pleased and confident. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一株因花朵微小而自卑的杂草，起初羡慕周围鲜艳的花朵，被孩子嘲笑“无用”后更加自我怀疑，直到冬天花朵凋零，它用自身的豆荚种子救助饥饿的小鸟，最终发现自身价值的故事。核心寓意是：每个人 (或事物) 都有独特的价值，不必羡慕他人的光芒，找准自身定位就能实现意义。 【31题详解】 根据第一段“Lots of bees and butterflies came to them because of their nice smells and bright colours.”可知，许多蜜蜂和蝴蝶被这些花宜人的香气和鲜艳的色彩吸引而来。故填Because of their nice smells and bright colours. 【32题详解】 根据第二段“Let’s pick some flowers for our grandma!”可知，孩子的对话明确表明摘花的对象是“grandma”。故填They picked the flowers for their grandma. 【33题详解】 根据第五段“In winter, all flowers were gone, only the little weed stood alone in the field. Just at that time, it noticed some birds coming above the field.”可知，小杂草在冬天注意到小鸟飞到田野上空。故填In winter. 【34题详解】 根据第五段“I have pods that you can eat!”和第六段小鸟的回应“You’re so kind!”、“They’re delicious. We can’t find anything better than what you gave us!”可知，小鸟接受了杂草的帮助并称赞种子美味，说明它们认为杂草能解决饥饿问题，即“有用”；题干为一般疑问句，需用“Yes/No”回答，并用“they”指代 “the birds”，助动词用“did”呼应题干时态。故填Yes, they did. 【35题详解】 根据最后一段“This made the little weed pleased and confident.”可知，小杂草最终感到欣慰又自信。故填It finally felt pleased and confident. 五、选词填空（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分。） 根据语篇内容，从方框中选择恰当的单词，并用其正确形式填空。将单词填写在对应的横线上，每个单词只能用一次。 age with him impossible later surprise however laugh practise athlete Tom was born ____36____ weak legs.

Impossible 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Tom天生腿部残疾，医生判定他可能无法正常行走，但他拒绝接受命运安排，12岁时开始练习跑步，面对同学的嘲笑和身体的痛苦始终坚持训练，最终在马拉松比赛中完成挑战，成为优秀运动员的故事。核心寓意是：困难与挑战并非不可逾越，逃避尝试的“不可能”只是借口，唯有坚持梦想、勇于拼搏，才能实现人生价值。 【36题详解】 句意：Tom生来双腿就比较虚弱。“be born with +身体特征/缺陷”为固定搭配，意为“天生具有……”，此处表示“Tom天生腿部虚弱”，符合语境。故填with。 【37题详解】 句意：然而，Tom拒绝接受这个命运。前文“医生说他可能永远无法正常行走”与后文“Tom拒绝接受这个命运”构成转折关系，备选词“however”表转折，且位于句首需大写首字母。故填However。 【38题详解】 句意：在12岁时，他决定将跑步作为一项爱好。“at the age of +数字”为固定搭配，意为“在……岁时”，此处表示“在 12 岁时”，符合“决定将跑步作为爱好”的时间背景。故填age。 【39题详解】 句意：当他在体育课上蹒跚而行时，他的同学嘲笑他。前文“每一步都让他痛苦”、“体育课上蹒跚而行”暗示同学的反应是负面的；结合备选词汇，“laugh at sb.”为固定搭配，意为“嘲笑某人”；文章整体时态为一般过去时，应用laugh的过去式laughed。故填laughed。 【40题详解】 句意：但Tom坚持练习，每天早起训练。根据“got up early every morning to train”和备选词汇可知，每天早起训练，此处是指坚持练习；考查practise“练习”，动词；keep doing sth.“坚持做某事”，固定搭配，因此这里应用动名词形式practising。故填practising。 【41题详解】 句意：他经常告诉自己：“如果别人能做到，我为什么不能？”前文“Tom坚持训练”暗示他在自我鼓励，“tell oneself”意为“告诉自己”；结合备选词汇，主语“he”对应的反身代词为himself。故填himself。 【42题详解】 句意：三年后，Tom参加了一场当地的马拉松比赛。根据空格前“Three years”和备选词汇可知，此处考查“Three years later”，意为“三年后”，符合“Tom 参加当地马拉松”的时间逻辑。故填later。 【43题详解】 句意：令所有人惊讶的是，他越过了终点线，在100名选手中排名第58位。根据空格前“To everyone’s”和备选词汇可知，此处考查to one’s surprise“令某人惊讶的是”，固定搭配，符合语境。故填surprise。 【44题详解】 句意：如今他是一名优秀的运动员。前文“参加马拉松比赛并完成挑战”暗示他的身份转变，备选词汇“athlete”意为“运动员”，空前“an”后接可数名词单数。故填athlete。 【45题详解】 句意：正如他所说：“‘不可能’是人们用来逃避尝试的词。真正的成功属于那些在困难面前坚持梦想的人。” 下文“人们用来逃避尝试的词”暗示此处指“不可能”这个概念，备选词汇“impossible”为形容词，此处需名词化 (首字母大写，作主语），表示“不可能”是一个词；符合Tom的感悟“挑战是建立勇气的垫脚石”。故填Impossible。 六、书面表达（15分） 46. 友情是一种财富，有了朋友的陪伴、理解和帮助，我们的生活会变得更加美好。 假如你是李华，你的美国朋友Betty转到了新学校，她为此很苦恼，不知道如何跟同学相处。请你给她发一封电子邮件，给她提出一些建议。 写作要点： 1. 对Betty的烦恼表示理解； 2. 针对Betty的烦恼给出建议； 3. 表达期望。 注意： 1. 词数为80左右； 2. 可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3. 文中不能出现真实姓名及学校名称。 _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Dear Betty, I understand how challenging it can be to adjust to a new school.

It looks like a panda with black ears and black eyes. After getting on the bus, people only need to buy their tickets by scanning (扫描) their hands! About one minute later, the bus begins its self-driving mode (模式). It will stop automatically (自动地) when it meets traffic lights. That is to say, it can drive and stop by itself. But there is still a driver on the bus. He will do something if the bus is in danger. There are also some robots on the bus. People can talk to them and ask them for help. If there is a bad person on the bus, the robots will call the police. “It’s convenient,” says a woman taking the bus. “And children love the bus because there are many pictures of cats on it.” Deep Blue makes this kind of buses. They’re working in ten cities all over China. More cities in China will have this kind of buses this year. I think soon you can take the bus in your city.

Since the Internet came into being, it has brought us pleasure and tears. Today, let’s take a look at some things that are disappearing as the Internet grows up. When modern people need to record some important things quickly, they don’t find a pen and a piece of paper to write, but to open their mobile phone or computer to record. As a result, it’s common for many people to “pick up the pen but forget words”. Perhaps, in a few years, will pen and paper disappear? As people more and more lose themselves in the online world, the real-looking photos disappear and they can only watch the beautiful pictures on the Internet. If one day you send a real photo in your circle of friends, others will even think if it is a photo to make fun of. Now everyone can get digital (数字的) maps in a few seconds by using computers or mobile phones. They are easy and fast for users. Do you remember the last time to look at a paper map? After a busy day for the whole family, people used to watch TV together, share information and express feelings. Nowadays, at home, a person with a mobile phone is the whole world. 26. How do people record anything important now? A. By writing it on paper. B. By remembering it in mind. C. By using the mobile phones or computers. 27. Which of the following best describes (描述) most photos online now? A. Funny and true. B. Beautiful but not real. C. Ugly but true. 28. What did people use to do after a busy day for the whole family? A. Share information and express feelings. B. Play computer games. C Lose themselves in the online world. 29. What’s the structure(结构) of the text? A. ①/②/③④⑤⑥ B. ①/②③④⑤/⑥ C. ①②/③④⑤/⑥ 30. After reading the text, what can you infer (推断)? A. The paper maps aren’t useful since they appear. B. People don’t need to learn how to write the words now. C. People prefer playing with the mobile phone instead of talking with families. D Once a little weed (杂草) grew in a field. There were many tall and beautiful flowers around it. Lots of bees and butterflies came to them because of their nice smells and bright colours. The little weed wasn’t satisfied, because its flowers were tiny and simple. One spring morning, three children came to play in the field. “Let’s pick some flowers for our grandma!” said one. “That’s a good idea!” said another. “She will love all these bright and beautiful flowers!” “What about that one?” the youngest child said, pointing at the little weed. “Forget it!” laughed the oldest brother. “That’s just a useless weed!” Hearing this, the little weed felt even worse. “Am I really useless?” it asked itself, “Why was I put on the Earth?” In winter, all flowers were gone, only the little weed stood alone in the field. Just at that time, it noticed some birds coming above the field. “We are hungry!” they shouted. The little weed felt sorry for the poor birds and called out to them, “Hey! Down here! I have pods (豆荚) that you can eat!” “You’re so kind!” The birds ate up the seeds (种子) in the pods thankfully. “They’re delicious. We can’t find anything better than what you gave us!” This made the little weed pleased and confident. “At last, I have found out what I am good for!” the little weed said. 31.
