On this day, people celebrate the achievements of women all over the world and continue to fight for basic rights (权利) for women. How did it start? In 1908, women in New York City wanted the right to vote. They also hoped to acquire shorter working hours and better pay. Then, in 1910 in Denmark, a woman called Clara Zetkin had the idea for an international day for women. The first International Women’s Day happened the next year. Why do we need a special day for women? In many countries, men get higher pay than women for doing the same job. Men get a better education and better health care, and do less work at home. Men also get better chances than women to get their jobs. We need a change for women so that women can have the same chances as men. How is International Women’s Day celebrated? People usually celebrate by remembering important women in history, like Emmeline Pankhurst, Rosa Parks, Marie Curie...It’s a very long list! They made great achievements in their fields. People also have special events to celebrate it. In some countries, boys and men celebrate this day, too! If you want to celebrate this important day, you could: 1. learn about an important girl or woman in your country (for example, in sports, science or history) and tell your classmates about her； 2. ask your teacher if you can do a class project about this day. 5 What does the underlined word “acquire” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Get. B. Refuse. C. Choose. D. Celebrate. 6. When did the first International Women’s Day happen? A. In 1908. B. In 1910. C. In 1911. D. In 1912. 7. What do we know about Marie Curie? A. She made great success in some fields. B. She made the same money as men. C. She started International Women’s Day. D. She fought for basic rights for women. 8. Who is this text probably written for? A. Nurses. B. Parents. C. Teachers. D. Students. 【答案】5. A 6. C 7. A 8. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了国际妇女节，包括节日的起源、庆祝方式等信息。 【5题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“In 1908, women in New York City wanted the right to vote.

Though heartbroken, Lisa did not give up. She practiced even harder, day after day, believing that one day she would prove herself. A year later, the same troupe returned to her town. Lisa, stronger and more skilled, went to see the leader again. This time, she danced with all her heart and soul. The leader watched intently, and when she finished, he smiled. “I remember your gift of roses and how the thorns hurt your fingers but you carried on bravely. I told you that you were not good enough. In fact, I tell this to every student to test their determination. But you did not give up.

These taxis strictly follow the rules of the road and lower the number of car accidents. Farming in China has become smarter! Today’s farmers use their phones and satellites to see how their farms are doing. This helps them grow healthier plants and reduce waste.

It is so common today that we pay little attention to it. But do you know when and where the envelope first appeared? The history of the envelope may be much longer than you think. It’s believed that the envelope first appeared in ancient China. It was used to protect royal (皇室的) messages. However, the early envelope was nothing like what we use today. It looked like a ball. After the message was put into it, the envelope would be closed with more clay. To read the message, one had to break the “envelope”. The first paper envelope appeared around 200 BC. It was also invented by the Chinese. However, at first, people used it only to send money. The design of the early paper envelope was very simple, but it was made completely by hand. So it was very expensive. In the 19th century, printing technology improved greatly. The machine could produce about 12,500 envelopes every day. The price of envelopes went down. Today, e-emails have become more popular than handwritten letters. But millions of envelopes are used every year. They are still part of modern life. 51. What did the early envelope look like? (no more than 2 words) ________________________________ 52. What was the early paper envelope used for? (no more than 2 words) ________________________________ 53. How was the early paper envelope made? (no more than 2 words) ________________________________ 54. Why were so many envelopes produced every day in the 19th century? (no more than 5 words) ________________________________ 55. How many envelopes are used every year today? (no more than 3 words) ________________________________ 【答案】51. A ball. 52. Send money. 53. By hand. 54. Printing technology improved. 55. Millions of envelopes. 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了信封最早出现于中国、早期形态与用途、纸信封的发展及19世纪量产情况，如今仍在现代生活中使用。 【51题详解】 根据“It looked like a ball.”可知，早期信封像一个球，故填A ball. 【52题详解】 根据“at first, people used it only to send money.”可知，早期纸信封用于寄钱，故填Send money. 【53题详解】 根据“it was made completely by hand.”可知，早期纸信封是手工制作的，故填By hand. 【54题详解】 根据“In the 19th century, printing technology improved greatly. The machine could produce about 12,500 envelopes every day.”可知，19世纪日产量高是因为印刷技术进步，故填Printing technology improved. 【55题详解】 根据“But millions of envelopes are used every year.”可知，如今每年使用数百万个信封，故填Millions of envelopes. 第二节 书面表达（满分25分） 56. 假如你是李华，明年你要去美国参加一个交换生计划(an exchange program)，学校要求你提前给你的老师Mr. Smith写一封信，信的内容包括以下内容。 自我介绍 从外貌和性格，爱好三个方面，介绍自己的变化，对以前和现在进行对比。 本国文化 介绍中国传统节日--春节（日期、活动、意义）并邀请Mr.Smith寒假来中国过节。 咨询 用礼貌的询问方式咨询你在入学前的疑问（交通、课程安排、……） 要求： 1. 包含所有要点并适当发挥。 2. 结构完整，语句通顺，句式多样。 3. 注意信件格式。 4. 字数100字左右。 Dear Mr.Smith, _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Dear Mr. Smith, I’m Li Hua, a student from China.

B International Women’s Day is on March 8 every year. On this day, people celebrate the achievements of women all over the world and continue to fight for basic rights (权利) for women. How did it start? In 1908 women in New York City wanted the right to vote. They also hoped to acquire shorter working hours and better pay. Then, in 1910 in Denmark, a woman called Clara Zetkin had the idea for an international day for women. The first International Women’s Day happened the next year. Why do we need a special day for women? In many countries, men get higher pay than women for doing the same job. Men get a better education and better health care, and do less work at home. Men also get better chances than women to get their jobs. We need a change for women so that women can have the same chances as men. How is International Women’s Day celebrated? People usually celebrate by remembering important women in history, like Emmeline Pankhurst, Rosa Parks, Marie Curie...It’s a very long list! They made great achievements in their fields. People also have special events to celebrate it. In some countries, boys and men celebrate this day, too! If you want to celebrate this important day, you could: 1. learn about an important girl or woman in your country (for example, in sports, science or history) and tell your classmates about her； 2. ask your teacher if you can do a class project about this day. 5. What does the underlined word “acquire” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Get. B. Refuse. C. Choose. D. Celebrate. 6. When did the first International Women’s Day happen? A. In 1908. B. In 1910. C. In 1911. D. In 1912. 7. What do we know about Marie Curie? A. She made great success in some fields. B. She made the same money as men. C. She started International Women’s Day. D. She fought for basic rights for women. 8. Who is this text probably written for? A. Nurses. B. Parents. C. Teachers. D. Students. C Every girl dreams, and Lisa is no exception. She has read dozens of books on how to be a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员). “Swan Lake” is her favorite. She hopes one day her dream will come true. She has taken ballet lessons and all her teachers are sure she is a good student. One day she saw a poster that a famous ballerina group will be performing in her hometown. Confidence filled her heart and she was so excited. Her thoughts soon ran wild. “I must meet up with the leader of the group and show him my skills,” she whispered to herself. When the troupe (舞团) arrived, Lisa put on her ballet outfit (芭蕾舞装) and hid in the dressing room. To her luck, the leader entered and she timidly (胆怯地) knocked at the door. She bravely approached him and handed him a bunch of red roses. The thorns (刺) hurt her hand but she didn’t mind the pain. The leader watched her action as she told him her dream. “Alright, you dance and then I will give you my conclusion.” But halfway through the dance he stopped her and said, “I’m sorry you’re not good enough!” On hearing this Lisa ran as fast as her legs could carry her and was upset. Though heartbroken, Lisa did not give up. She practiced even harder, day after day, believing that one day she would prove herself. A year later, the same troupe returned to her town. Lisa, stronger and more skilled, went to see the leader again. This time, she danced with all her heart and soul. The leader watched intently, and when she finished, he smiled. “I remember your gift of roses and how the thorns hurt your fingers but you carried on bravely. I told you that you were not good enough. In fact, I tell this to every student to test their determination. But you did not give up. You came back, and today, you have shown not only skills but true spirit. Welcome to our troupe.” Lisa’s perseverance (毅力) had finally paid off. Her dream had come true. 9. What is Lisa’s dream? A. To become a famous singer. B. To be a ballerina. C. To be a teacher of ballet. D. To watch “Swan Lake” performance. 10. Why did Lisa hide in the dressing room? A. She was afraid of being late for the show. B. She wanted to meet the leader and show her skills. C. She lost her way in the theater. D She was waiting for a friend. 11. What kind of girl do you think Lisa is? A. Shy and quiet. B. Brave and dream-catching. C. Careless and forgetful. D. Proud and confident. 12. What can we learn from the story? A. Roses are important for ballerinas. B. Dancing leads to success. C. Never give up easily if you want to succeed. D. Leaders always tell the truth to students. D Huawei has created a cool new phone called the Mate XT. This phone can be folded up into three parts, making it small and easy to carry around. But when you want to use it, you can open it up to a big, wide screen. It’s perfect for working, watching videos, or even playing exciting games. It is smart, showing how far phone technology has come. It’s not just useful. It’s also really cool. China has shown the world’s first high-definition lunar atlas (高清月球图集). Since the old maps from half a century ago couldn’t support future research. Chinese experts began making new maps using information from China’s Chang’e Project and other studies. The new maps show the right locations of big findings on the moon like rocks. They’ll help scientists study the moon better and locate where the astronauts can land safely. In some cities in China, people can commonly see self-driving taxis. They are cars that can drive themselves without a human driver. They use cameras and sensors (传感器) to see the road and decide how to move safely. Unlike a human driver, a self-driving car won’t get distracted by other things, like the radio or something outside the window. These taxis strictly follow the rules of the road and lower the number of car accidents. Farming in China has become smarter! Today’s farmers use their phones and satellites to see how their farms are doing. This helps them grow healthier plants and reduce waste. With technology on their side, farmers can check the weather, receive expert farming advice, and even know market prices for their crops. These can make farming more convenient. 13. Which of the following can best describe Huawei XT according to paragraph 1? A. Big but convenient. B. Expensive but useful. C. Smart and cool. D. Light and popular. 14. What can the new maps do according to paragraph 2? A. Help find rocks on the moon. B. Help find safe landing places. C. Improve China’s Chang’e Project. D.

It is so common today that we pay little attention to it. But do you know when and where the envelope first appeared? The history of the envelope may be much longer than you think. It’s believed that the envelope first appeared in ancient China. It was used to protect royal (皇室的) messages. However, the early envelope was nothing like what we use today. It looked like a ball. After the message was put into it, the envelope would be closed with more clay. To read the message, one had to break the “envelope”. The first paper envelope appeared around 200 BC. It was also invented by the Chinese. However, at first, people used it only to send money. The design of the early paper envelope was very simple, but it was made completely by hand. So it was very expensive. In the 19th century, printing technology improved greatly. The machine could produce about 12,500 envelopes every day. The price of envelopes went down. Today, e-emails have become more popular than handwritten letters. But millions of envelopes are used every year. They are still part of modern life. 51. What did the early envelope look like?
