Before he became a real musician, his master took him to the East China Sea to feel the beauty of nature. In the Penglai Mountains, he saw high mountains and an unbelievable waterfall. He didn’t understand the true meaning of creating music pieces until he got so close to the beautiful nature. He began to play his guqin to express his feelings but nobody could understand what he wanted to express. On August 15th of the lunar calendar (农历), while he was traveling by boat across the Hanyang River, he was caught by a big storm. As the big round moon rose up in the sky, everything was shining brightly in the moonlight. He was inspired (激发灵感) by this view and started to play his guqin. He was lost in his own music so he didn’t realize someone was standing next to him and enjoying his music. The man was Zhong Ziqi, a woodcutter, who became his true friend later. They promised to meet each other again the same day the next year. Unluckily, Zhong Ziqi ate his words because he died of illness. Yu Boya was too sad to go on playing his music so he broke his guqin angrily. He thought he might never find another true friend like Zhong Ziqi. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 21.

B. During the Lantern Festival. C. During the Dragon Boat Festival. D. During the Mid-Autumn Festival. 24. What do the underlined words “ate his words” mean in this passage?

A a Chinese fairy tale B. a science website C. the BBC news D. a letter to a friend C How do we know the time? A clock, a watch or a mobile phone can help us. However, many years ago there were no clocks and knowing the time was not so easy. Over the centuries, people have developed different ways of telling the time. About 5,500 years ago, the Egyptians invented the sun clock. This was a tall stone building. Its shadow (影子) showed the movement of the sun. So people were able to know midday. The Egyptians made a sundial about 3,500 years ago. It was smaller than the sun clock and could let people know the time for half a day. On cloudy days or at night it was impossible to tell the time with a sun clock or a sundial. Water clocks were the first clocks not to use the sun. The idea is simple. Water flows (流动) from one bottle to another. When the water reaches a certain level, it shows the hours. The Egyptians used water clocks about 3,400 years ago. These clocks were popular in the Middle East and China. But they failed to make people know the exact time. In the 13th century, the mechanical clock was invented. This was more exact, but it was expensive to make one. Over the next few centuries it was developed. For example, spring (发条) were added around 1500. This enabled people to get the correct time and allowed clocks to be smaller. In 1927, the first quartz clock was developed. Clocks became cheaper to build. It’s also cheaper for ordinary people to own a clock. People began depending on them more and more to run business, markets and so on. More recently, in 1956, came the digital clock. And nowadays satellites send our mobile phones the time to the exact second. There has been a lot of progress in timekeeping. Clocks are always changing but some things never change. Many of us still have trouble getting out of bed on time and not being late for school or work. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 26. According to the passage, we can’t use the ________ to tell the time on a rainy day. A. water clock B. sun clock C. digital clock D. mechanical clock 27. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “ordinary” in the third paragraph? A. modern B. special C. rich D. common 28. How many kinds of clocks are mentioned in the passage? A. Four. B. Five. C. Six. D. Seven. 29. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage? （①—paragraph 1, ②—paragraph 2, …） A. B. C. D. 30. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. The importance of time. B. The development of timekeeping. C. The inventions of clocks. D. The history of a digital clock. 第二节 (共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容，从所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文意思通顺，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余项。 Imagine you are going to give a speech the next day.

The report found that today’s kids were 15% less healthy than kids from 30 years ago. You’re a 13-year-old girl. Your mum was the same kind of kid when she was your age. Now imagine we could set up a mile race between you and your mum from 30 years ago. The study showed your mum would probably beat you in the race by 1.5 minutes. It was the same for boys. A boy from 30 years ago would beat a boy today. The scientists who did the study think there are some reasons for the big fall in health. First, too many of today’s kids are overweight. That makes it harder for them to run fast. Second, kids today don’t get enough exercise. The doctor says that kids should take exercise at least 60 minutes every day. That’s why it’s important for students to have P. E. Classes at school. So what should kids do? If you don’t want your mum and dad to think they are faster than you, do things that will get you up and to move. 1、2 题完成句子；3 ~ 5 题简略回答问题。 46.

A clock, a watch or a mobile phone can help us. However, many years ago there were no clocks and knowing the time was not so easy. Over the centuries, people have developed different ways of telling the time. About 5,500 years ago, the Egyptians invented the sun clock. This was a tall stone building. Its shadow (影子) showed the movement of the sun. So people were able to know midday. The Egyptians made a sundial about 3,500 years ago. It was smaller than the sun clock and could let people know the time for half a day. On cloudy days or at night it was impossible to tell the time with a sun clock or a sundial. Water clocks were the first clocks not to use the sun. The idea is simple. Water flows (流动) from one bottle to another. When the water reaches a certain level, it shows the hours. The Egyptians used water clocks about 3,400 years ago. These clocks were popular in the Middle East and China. But they failed to make people know the exact time. In the 13th century, the mechanical clock was invented. This was more exact, but it was expensive to make one. Over the next few centuries it was developed. For example, spring (发条) were added around 1500. This enabled people to get the correct time and allowed clocks to be smaller. In 1927, the first quartz clock was developed. Clocks became cheaper to build. It’s also cheaper for ordinary people to own a clock. People began depending on them more and more to run business, markets and so on. More recently, in 1956, came the digital clock. And nowadays satellites send our mobile phones the time to the exact second. There has been a lot of progress in timekeeping. Clocks are always changing but some things never change. Many of us still have trouble getting out of bed on time and not being late for school or work. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 26.

It’s also cheaper for ordinary people to own a clock.”可知，钟表制造变得便宜了，普通人拥有一块钟表也便宜了。因此，“ordinary”在这里的意思是“普通的”。故选D。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“About 5,500 years ago, the Egyptians invented the sun clock.”，“ The Egyptians made a sundial about 3,500 years ago.”，“In the 13th century, the mechanical clock was invented. ”，“In 1927, the first quartz clock was developed.”，“More recently, in 1956, came the digital clock. ”可知大约5500年前，埃及人发明了太阳钟；埃及人在3500年前制造了日晷；水钟是第一个不使用太阳的钟；在13世纪，机械钟被发明；1927年，第一个石英钟被发明；1956年，出现了数字钟。总共六种钟。故选C。 【29题详解】 篇章结构题。根据文章内容，文章第一段介绍了我们如何知道时间，第二段和第三段介绍了古代人们计时方法现代计时工具的发展，第四段总结了计时技术的进步和一些不变的事情。因此，文章的结构是①—②③—④。选项A中的结构与此相符。故选A。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“There has been a lot of progress in timekeeping. Clocks are always changing but some things never change.”可知，文章主要讲述了计时技术的进步和变化。故选B。 第二节 (共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容，从所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文意思通顺，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余项。 Imagine you are going to give a speech the next day.

The report found that today’s kids were 15% less healthy than kids from 30 years ago. You’re a 13-year-old girl. Your mum was the same kind of kid when she was your age. Now imagine we could set up a mile race between you and your mum from 30 years ago. The study showed your mum would probably beat you in the race by 1.5 minutes. It was the same for boys. A boy from 30 years ago would beat a boy today. The scientists who did the study think there are some reasons for the big fall in health. First, too many of today’s kids are overweight. That makes it harder for them to run fast. Second, kids today don’t get enough exercise. The doctor says that kids should take exercise at least 60 minutes every day. That’s why it’s important for students to have P. E. Classes at school. So what should kids do? If you don’t want your mum and dad to think they are faster than you, do things that will get you up and to move. 1、2 题完成句子；3 ~ 5 题简略回答问题。 46.
