Can you think of a day without music? We can hear music everywhere: in the streets and at home, over the radio and on TV, in the shops and in the parks. People all over the world are fond of music. They listen to music, they dance to music, and they learn to play musical instruments.
Music isn’t only a combination of pleasant sounds. It is an art which reflects life. There are a lot of different kinds of music. Some of them appeared long ago, and some are modern. Folk music appeared long ago, but it is still alive. Folk songs are very pleasant to listen to. Classical music is often associated with the music of the past. Rap is a modern musical style where the singer speaks or shouts the words in time to music with a steady beat.
Great Britain has produced more popular music stars than any other country. British groups often set new trends in music. New styles, groups and singers continue to appear. Many of the new bands have been able to use changes in technology to develop their music such as computerised drum machines, synthesisers and other electronic instruments.
Tastes differ. So people’s musical interests range from pop and rock music to classical music and opera. My favourite style of music is pop music, because it is full of energy. When I listen to pop music it makes me remember happy times and forget the problems of everyday life. I also enjoy listening to classical music. The music I hate is heavy metal. I find it noisy. When I listen to this style of music it presents to my mind pictures of dark days. My mother and father agree with my tastes in music. Though they prefer to listen to classical, they think that modern music is not too bad.
Music appeals to our hearts. It comforts our souls and enriches (充实) our minds. Music is beauty in sounds; it is our magic source of inspiration.
41. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. Several types of music. B. Different musical tastes.
C. The development of musical styles. D. The importance of music in our lives.
42. How is the second paragraph developed?
A. By describing courses. B. By analysing reasons.
C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons.
43. Which of the following is TRUE about the music in Great Britain?
A. It has produced many popular music stars in the world.
B. It fails to apply new technology in the performances.
C. Many new bands insist on traditional instruments.
D. British groups fall behind the new trends now.
44. Why does the author like pop music?
A. It is played with electronic instruments.
B. It is characterised by a steady beat.
C. It is loud and strong.
D. It sounds energetic.
45. What is the author’s parents’ attitude towards his musical taste?
A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Dissatisfied. D. Unconcerned.
第Ⅱ卷(共30分)
第四部分:写作(共两节,满分30分)
第一节阅读表达。(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,按照要求用英语回答问题。
In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the extreme heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the scorching heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.
After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”
I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.
46. Why did the author have to hitch a ride? (no more than 8 words)
47. What did Gordon do to help the author? (no more than 11 words)
48. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 mean? (1 word)
49. Why did the author pull over and pick up the elderly man in 2003? (no more than 10 words)
50. Will you offer any help to a stranger who seems in trouble? Why or why not? (no more than 20 words)

A. how; that B. why; what
C. that; what D. whether; that
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查同位语从句和主语从句。句意:斯蒂芬·库里被认为是一个活生生例子,证明别人对你的看法并不一定会影响你成为什么样的人。空处首先由连接词引导同位语从句,用来解释说明proof的内容,从句不缺成分,句意完整,需用连接词that引导;其次是在同位语从句中,“does not have to influence”是谓语,“what you become”是宾语从句,谓语前面的部分“other people think of you”是主语从句,缺少宾语,需用连接代词what引导。故选C。
3. ________ is mentioned earlier, the expert group has already been formed to investigate the issue.
A. That B. Which C. Where D. As
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:正如先前提到的,专家组已经成立以调查这个问题。设空处引导非限制性定语从句,指代后文整个主句,并在从句中作主语,表示“正如”,用as引导定语从句,符合句意。故选D。

【解析】
【详解】考查不定式。句意:他读到这封信的那一刻,心一沉。——我们很遗憾地通知你,你没有入选我们学校的足球队。由“you haven’t been selected for our school soccer team”可知,此处表示“我们很遗憾地通知你”,regret to do是固定短语,意为“遗憾要去做某事”,regret doing意为“后悔做了某事”,因此空格处是不定式to inform,故选A。

Can you think of a day without music? We can hear music everywhere: in the streets and at home, over the radio and on TV, in the shops and in the parks. People all over the world are fond of music. They listen to music, they dance to music, and they learn to play musical instruments.
Music isn’t only a combination of pleasant sounds. It is an art which reflects life. There are a lot of different kinds of music. Some of them appeared long ago, and some are modern. Folk music appeared long ago, but it is still alive. Folk songs are very pleasant to listen to. Classical music is often associated with the music of the past. Rap is a modern musical style where the singer speaks or shouts the words in time to music with a steady beat.
Great Britain has produced more popular music stars than any other country. British groups often set new trends in music. New styles, groups and singers continue to appear. Many of the new bands have been able to use changes in technology to develop their music such as computerised drum machines, synthesisers and other electronic instruments.
Tastes differ. So people’s musical interests range from pop and rock music to classical music and opera. My favourite style of music is pop music, because it is full of energy. When I listen to pop music it makes me remember happy times and forget the problems of everyday life. I also enjoy listening to classical music. The music I hate is heavy metal. I find it noisy. When I listen to this style of music it presents to my mind pictures of dark days. My mother and father agree with my tastes in music. Though they prefer to listen to classical, they think that modern music is not too bad.
Music appeals to our hearts. It comforts our souls and enriches (充实) our minds. Music is beauty in sounds; it is our magic source of inspiration.
41. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. Several types of music. B. Different musical tastes.
C. The development of musical styles. D. The importance of music in our lives.
42. How is the second paragraph developed?
A. By describing courses. B. By analysing reasons.
C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons.
43. Which of the following is TRUE about the music in Great Britain?
A. It has produced many popular music stars in the world.
B. It fails to apply new technology in the performances.
C. Many new bands insist on traditional instruments.
D. British groups fall behind the new trends now.
44. Why does the author like pop music?
A. It is played with electronic instruments.
B. It is characterised by a steady beat.
C. It is loud and strong.
D. It sounds energetic.
45. What is the author’s parents’ attitude towards his musical taste?
A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Dissatisfied. D. Unconcerned.
【答案】41. D 42. C 43. A 44. D 45. B

第四部分:写作(共两节,满分30分)
第一节阅读表达。(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,按照要求用英语回答问题。
In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the extreme heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the scorching heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.
After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”
I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.
46. Why did the author have to hitch a ride? (no more than 8 words)
47. What did Gordon do to help the author? (no more than 11 words)
48. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 mean? (1 word)
49. Why did the author pull over and pick up the elderly man in 2003? (no more than 10 words)
50. Will you offer any help to a stranger who seems in trouble? Why or why not? (no more than 20 words)
【答案】46. Because she missed the only train back home. / Because the only train back home had left.
47. He made her sandwiches and helped her find a lift home./He gave her lunch and helped her find a lift.
48. Extreme./Intense.
49. Because she wanted to repay the favour she once got.
50. Open

【答案】
Growing up along with Olympic Champions
Many teenage champions have stood out in the Paris Olympics. Athletes like Zheng Qinwen and Pan Zhanle, have showcased dedication and sportsmanship in exceptional performance and brought honor to our country. We can all learn from their qualities.
Firstly, their pursuit of dreams is what we can learn. They have a clear vision of what they want to achieve and work tirelessly towards it. Secondly, they give their all, leaving no stone unturned in their preparation and events. Lastly, they represent the spirit of never giving up, no matter how tough the journey gets.
To be a champion in our studies or daily life, we should also set clear goals and work diligently towards them. We must be determined, persistent, and not be afraid to face challenges. Just like these athletes, we should practice self-discipline, maintain a positive attitude, and learn from our failures. For instance, when faced with a difficult problem, we should not give up easily but instead, try different approaches and seek help when needed.
In conclusion, by following their example and continuous efforts, we can achieve excellence in our own lives and make our dreams a reality.
