A．unless B．because C．though D．until 【答案】C 【详解】句意：我几乎不理解这篇文章，尽管里面没有新的单词。 考查连词。unless除非；because因为；though尽管；until直到。根据句意和空格后面的“there aren’t any new words in it”可知，此处用though引导让步状语从句，表示“虽然里面没有生词”。故选C。 2．My father was so angry at ______ I was doing ______ he walked out without a word. A．what; what      B．what; that      C．that; that      D．that; what 【答案】B 【详解】句意：我父亲对我做的事情非常生气，以至于他一句话也没说就走了出去。 考查宾语从句和结果状语从句。本句整体是so…that结构，表示“如此……以至于……”，引导结果状语从句，需用that引导；同时，what I was doing作介词at的宾语，是宾语从句，从句动词do的宾语需用what引导。故第一空填what；第二空填that。故选B。 3．The film ______ by Spielberg is well worth ______. A．was directed; seeing B．directed; to see C．was directed; to see D．directed; seeing 【答案】D 【详解】句意：由斯皮尔伯格导演的这部电影值得看。 考查非谓语。根据句意及题干分析此句是简单句，所以第一空应用非谓语动词，电影和动词direct是被动关系，所以用过去分词directed；第二空“值得做某事”是固定结构be worth doing，故选D。 4．Jack, my American pen friend, shows great interest in Baoying. He wonders ________. A．when Baoying Museum is built B．why are Baoying noodles so tasty C．if spring is the best time to visit Baoying D．that Baoying is famous for lotus 【答案】C 【详解】句意：我的美国笔友杰克对宝应很感兴趣。他想知道春天是否是参观宝应的最佳时机。 考查宾语从句。句子是宾语从句，用陈述语序，排除B；根据“wonders”可知主句缺少含义，不用that引导宾语从句，排除D；根据语境可知，宝应博物馆应是过去被建造，故应用一般过去时的被动语态，排除A。故选C。 5．—Kate, I’m going to a party tonight. Could you please tell me ______? —With pleasure, wait a moment, please. A．if the skirt looked nice on me B．what should I pay attention to C．that I should take some flowers D．whether I can order a taxi on the phone 【答案】D 【详解】句意：——凯特，我今晚要去参加一个派对。你能告诉我是否可以在电话上订一辆出租车吗？——很乐意帮忙，请稍等一下。 考查宾语从句。根据“Could you please tell me…”可知，此句为宾语从句，需用陈述语序，排除B选项。that引导宾语从句无实际意义，放在此句中语义不通，排除C选项。根据语境可知，此处是询问今晚参加派对相关事宜，A选项“if the skirt looked nice on me”时态为一般过去时，不符合当下询问情境，排除A选项。而D选项“whether I can order a taxi on the phone”符合宾语从句的用法。故选D。 6．—Only those who have a lot in common can get along well. —______. Opposites sometimes attract. A．I hope so B．I don’t care C．I don’t think so D．I can’t agree more 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——只有那些有很多共同点的人才能相处得很好。——我不这么认为。有时性格相反的人互相吸引。 考查情景交际。I hope so我希望如此；I don’t care我不在乎；I don’t think so我不这样认为；I can’t agree more我再同意不过了。根据“Only those who have a lot in common can get along well.”以及“Opposites sometimes attract.”可知上文表示有共同点才能相处得很好，下文表示个性相反会互相吸引，所以空处不同意上文的观点。故选C。 7．—According to the new traffic rules, people ______ wear helmets when riding e-bikes. —Safety comes first. We ______ be too careful. A．can; can’t B．must; can’t C．may; needn’t D．need; mustn’t 【答案】B 【详解】句意：——根据新的交通规则，人们骑电动自行车时必须戴头盔。——安全第一。我们再小心也不为过。 考查动词辨析。can能；must必须；may可以；need需要；can’t不能；needn’t不需要；mustn’t禁止。根据“people…wear helmets when riding e-bikes.”可知，骑电动车必须佩戴头盔，应填must；根据“Safety comes first.”可知，第二空强调安全第一，can’t be too careful“再小心也不为过”符合语境。故选B。 8．—China’s excellent culture is ______ treasure, as it helps us to know where we are from and where we’re going. —Yes. That’s why students should learn the history of our country. A．as long as B．as good as C．as well as D．as soon as 【答案】B 【详解】句意：——中国的优秀文化就像财富一样，因为它帮助我们知道我们从哪里来，我们要去哪里。——是的。这就是为什么学生应该学习我们国家的历史。 考查短语辨析。as long as只要；as good as和……一样好，good为形容词；as well as和……一样好，well为副词；as soon as一……就。根据“China’s excellent culture is…treasure”可知，此处表示“文化和财富一样好”，is后接形容词，故选B。 9．My life in Grade Nine seemed a little difficult at first, but everything ______ to be fine now. A．finds out B．looks out C．breaks out D．turns out 【答案】D 【详解】句意：我的九年级生活起初看起来有点困难，但现在一切都很好。 考查动词短语。finds out查明；looks out小心；breaks out爆发；turns out结果是。根据“everything…fine now”可知，此处指现在结果一切都好了。故选D。 10．—I admire those who are brave enough to face any challenges far ______ their abilities. —So do I. Success needs more ______. A．from; effects B．beyond; efforts C．through; changes D．against; attention 【答案】B 【详解】句意：——我钦佩那些有足够勇气去面对远远超出他们能力的任何挑战的人。——我也是。成功需要更多的努力。 考查介词辨析和名词辨析。from来自；effects影响；beyond超出；efforts努力；through通过；changes变化；against反对；attention注意力。根据“brave enough to face any challenges far...”可知，这里表达的是面对远远“超出”他们能力的挑战，只有beyond符合语境，所以第一空填beyond。第二空需要一个名词，根据语境，成功需要的是更多的“努力”，efforts符合语境，所以第二空填efforts。故选B。 二、完形填空(本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 I used to feel hopeless and frustrated (沮丧的).

His eyes shone. “Tell us your story,” he said. Miss Morstan began her story and we listened. “My father,” she began, “was a captain (上尉) in the army. When I was very young, he was sent to India. My mother was dead and I had no other relatives in England. So, while my father was away, I was sent to school. When I was seventeen, I received a letter from my father. He said that he was leaving India and coming back to England. He gave me the address of a hotel in London. He asked me to meet him there.” “I was very happy and excited about seeing my dear father again. I went to London and arrived at the hotel. I asked for Captain Morstan, my father. But I was told by the hotel manager that my father was not there. He had gone out the night before and not returned. I waited all day and all night, but my father didn’t come back to the hotel. Finally, I went to the police. They advertised (登广告) for Captain Morstan in all the newspapers, but without success. I never saw my dear father again.” “Four years after my father disappeared,” continued Miss Morstan, “I saw an advertisement in the newspaper. The date was 4th May 1882. To my surprise, the advertisement asked for the address of Miss Mary Morstan. It said that if I advertised my address, I would receive some very good news.” “What did you do?” asked Holmes. “I advertised my address in the same newspaper. The next day, I received a small cardboard box. Inside the box was a lovely pearl (珍珠). And I have received another five pearls since that day. They arrive every year on the same day. Look.” She opened a flat box and showed us six beautiful pearls. “________” asked Holmes. “Nothing at all,” replied Miss Morstan. Then she continued. “But the strangest thing of all happened this morning. That is why I came to see you. This morning, I received a letter. Please read it.” “Thank you,” said Holmes. He took the letter and studied it carefully. 29．Miss Morstan came to see Holmes mainly because ________.

A．Captain Morstan disappeared in 1878. B．Miss Morstan received a letter with a pearl every year after 1882. C．The advertisement in the newspaper asked for the address of Mr. Morstan. D．The pearls were sent by Miss Morstan’s father to her. 31．We can guess from the passage that Miss Morstan must be ________. A．excited B．scared C．angry D．proud 32．Which question be put at the beginning of Paragraph 5 ? A．There was no letter with the pearls? B．Did you meet anyone after that? C．Who sent these beautiful pearls? D．These pearls were your father’s? 【答案】29．D 30．A 31．B 32．A 【导语】本文讲述了Morstan小姐向福尔摩斯和他的同伴们讲述她父亲失踪以及随后每年收到珍珠的神秘经历。 29．细节理解题。根据“But the strangest thing of all happened this morning. That is why I came to see you. This morning, I received a letter. ”可知，Morstan小姐来见福尔摩斯主要是因为她收到了一封奇怪的信。故选D。 30．推理判断题。根据“When I was seventeen, I received a letter from my father. He said that he was leaving India and coming back to England.”，“Four years after my father disappeared,”和“I saw an advertisement in the newspaper. The date was 4th May 1882.”可知，Morstan小姐 17 岁时收到父亲信说要回英国，之后父亲失踪，四年后即1882年5月4日看到广告，由此可推知父亲在 1878 年失踪。故选A。 31．推理判断题。根据Morstan小姐收到奇怪信件等一系列离奇事件，以及她向福尔摩斯求助，可推测她是害怕的。故选B。 32．推理判断题。根据上文提到每年收到珍珠，以及空后“Nothing at all,”可知，此处问的是与珍珠相关且是否有其他附带信息的问题；选项A“珍珠没有附信吗？”符合语境。故选A。 C Hainan gibbons are the world’s rarest primates (灵长类动物). They only live in Hainan. Their daily life begins with the male heads of the five remaining families’ high and beautiful whistling (啸叫声). It can reach villagers down in the valleys which are 800 to 1,200 meters below. Sadly, gibbons once nearly died out. With the efforts of the researchers, their number has increased from less than 10 in two families to 35 in five families. Although gibbons can look at people curiously from a few meters away, it’s difficult to follow the gibbons. The best way to follow the gibbons is by sound at present. Like humans, gibbons produce vocal cues. With the help of the advanced cameras, we will learn more about their lifestyle and the way they express feelings like joy, anger and sadness. For the next six months, 11 researchers will work with other experts to study the information collected over the last year. Then they will finish a report on the voice characteristics of the gibbons, and try to explain their daily behavior. The database (数据库) is expected to be completed in three years. It will play a major role in researching and protecting gibbons and other rare plants and animals. The project is the first of its kind in China. It’s designed to follow all major rare plants and animals in a single protected area. Researchers suggested that we can explain not only gibbons’ simple communication but also their behavior in the future because of research into Hainan gibbon protection. The growth of Hainan gibbon population gives the whole world confidence to protect the endangered primates in the future. 33．What can we get from the numbers in Paragraph 1? A．Gibbons are active in the daytime. B．Gibbons can jump down from tall trees. C．Gibbons’ whistling can spread a long way. D．Gibbons often wake up the villagers in the valleys. 34．How does the writer show the researches’ efforts to protect the gibbons? A．By telling a story. B．By asking questions. C．By giving examples. D．By listing the numbers. 35．The database is set up to ________. A．follow all the rare plants and animals in the wild B．explain gibbons’ simple communication and behavior C．research and protect gibbons and other rare plants and animals D．help to study the information which was collected over the past year 36．The passage would most likely be found from the ________ part of a newspaper. A．news B．science C．interview D．literature 【答案】33．C 34．D 35．C 36．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了海南长臂猿的数量在研究人员的努力下从几乎灭绝恢复到35只，研究人员通过声音监测和数据分析深入了解它们的生活方式，为保护濒危灵长类动物和稀有植物提供了希望。 33．细节理解题。根据“Their daily life begins with the male heads of the five remaining families’ high and beautiful whistling (啸叫声). It can reach villagers down in the valleys which are 800 to 1,200 meters below.”可知，海南猿的叫声可以传达给800到1200米下方的山谷中的村民，选项C“长臂猿的叫声可以传播很远”可以从第一段中得出。故选C。 34．细节理解题。根据“their number has increased from less than 10 in two families to 35 in five families.”和“For the next six months, 11 researchers will work with other experts to study the information collected over the last year.”可知，文章通过列出数字来展示研究者保护长臂猿的努力。故选D。 35．细节理解题。根据“The database (数据库) is expected to be completed in three years. It will play a major role in researching and protecting gibbons and other rare plants and animals.”可知，建立数据库是用来研究和保护长臂猿和其他稀有植物和动物的。故选C。 36．推理判断题。根据全文可知，文章主要介绍了海南长臂猿的数量在研究人员的努力下从几乎灭绝恢复到35只，研究人员通过声音监测和数据分析深入了解它们的生活方式，为保护濒危灵长类动物和稀有植物提供了希望。因此可推知本篇文章可能会出现在报纸的科学部分。故选B。 D One of the differences between Chinese movies and those of foreign countries is bilingual subtitles (双语字幕). Two languages that we use as subtitles are Chinese and English. There are some reasons why Chinese movies have subtitles. The first reason is dialect (方言). Besides Mandarin and Cantonese. China has lots of dialects. And even different provinces have different dialects. Some Chinese movies have different dialects, so they should make sure audiences can understand what they are talking about. Second is the background music and sound effects. Unlike TV, the cinema cannot be controlled remotely (远地). Whether the background music is too loud or too small, the subtitles can make sure audiences will not be out of the play. Third is that a deep voice or pronunciation is not clear. Some actors or actresses have a deep and low voice, which sounds good. But we can’t hear it in the heavy bass (超重低音) the theaters. So the subtitles help us to understand the lines. Fourth, it is friendly to people who have trouble hearing. The subtitles help them to understand what actors or actresses talk about. Fifth, there are lots of foreigners coming to China, and English is the most widely spoken language in the world. When we watch bilingual subtitles, we can learn English and we can also understand the meaning. Foreigners can use Chinese movies to learn Chinese, and the English subtitles help them understand Chinese. 37．What languages are used as subtitles in Chinese movies? A．Mandarin and Cantonese. B．Chinese and English. C．Chinese and dialects. D．Mandarin and dialects. 38．What does the underlined word “lines” mean in Paragraph 4? A．Dialogues. B．Pronunciations. C．Sounds. D．Languages. 39．Why do Chinese movies have bilingual subtitles? ①Because China has different dialects. ②Because of the background music and sound effects. ③Because a deep voice or pronunciation is clear. ④To help the deaf understand the movie. ⑤Because there are lots of foreigners coming to China A．①②③④ B．①③④⑤ C．①②④⑤ D．①②③⑤ 40．What is the structure of this text? (P= Paragraph) A． B． C． D． 【答案】37．B 38．A 39．C 40．D 【导语】本文讲述了中国电影和外国电影之间的一个差异是双语字幕。 37．细节理解题。根据“Two languages that we use as subtitles are Chinese and English.”可知，中国电影使用的字幕是中文和英语。故选B。 38．词义猜测题。根据“But we can’t hear it in the heavy bass (超重低音) the theaters. So the subtitles help us to understand the lines.”可知，由于重低音的原因，我们可能听不清台词，需要字幕帮助理解。因此，lines在这里指的是“台词”。故选A。 39．细节理解题。根据“The first reason is dialect (方言).… China has lots of dialects.”、“Second is the background music and sound effects.”、“Third is that a deep voice or pronunciation is not clear.”、“Fourth, it is friendly to people who have trouble hearing.”和“Fifth, there are lots of foreigners coming to China, and English is the most widely spoken language in the world.”可知文中提到了五个原因：因为中国有不同的方言；因为背景音乐和音效；为了帮助听力有障碍的人理解电影；因为有很多外国人来到中国，英文字幕能够帮助他们理解。因此选项③(发音清晰)是不正确的，正确答案是①②④⑤。故选C。 40．篇章结构题。根据文章每一段的内可知，第一段引出话题，第二至六段分别讲述五个原因，每段都是独立的分论点，形成总分结构。故选D。 四、信息还原（共5小题，每道题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺连贯，其中有一项是多余选项。 Teenagers need eight to ten hours of sleep per night. However, changes to the body’s sleep cycle make it difficult for teens to fall asleep early. Many cannot fall asleep until 10:30 p. m. or even later and most of them will feel sleepy if they have to get up too early. Scientists recommend that both middle and high schools begin no earlier than 8:30 a. m. 41 Here are some other advantages of later school start times: 42 When running late in the mornings, students are likely to go without breakfast. With an empty stomach, one finds it difficult to focus (集中) in class. When they are always in a hurry, students may form unhealthy eating habits. With extra time before going to school, students can eat a well-balanced breakfast and focus more on learning. Fewer behavioral problems Teens experience mood changes as a common result of this special period of life. 43 When they get enough sleep, students are calm and peaceful and their moods do not change suddenly.

Since the main color of the festival—Chinese red attracts you very much, I’m writing to tell you something about it. You can enjoy a lot of red things at the Spring Festival, such as red packets, red Chinese paper-cutting, red candles and so on. Many things are red because we Chinese think red can bring us good luck and happiness. In our daily life, red is used a lot as well.

When we have difficulty making a decision, we can also use red because it represents strong feelings too and wearing red can make it easier to take action. As for me, I like red a lot.

Miss Morstan began her story and we listened. “My father,” she began, “was a captain (上尉) in the army. When I was very young, he was sent to India. My mother was dead and I had no other relatives in England. So, while my father was away, I was sent to school. When I was seventeen, I received a letter from my father. He said that he was leaving India and coming back to England. He gave me the address of a hotel in London. He asked me to meet him there.” “I was very happy and excited about seeing my dear father again. I went to London and arrived at the hotel. I asked for Captain Morstan, my father. But I was told by the hotel manager that my father was not there. He had gone out the night before and not returned. I waited all day and all night, but my father didn’t come back to the hotel. Finally, I went to the police. They advertised (登广告) for Captain Morstan in all the newspapers, but without success. I never saw my dear father again.” “Four years after my father disappeared,” continued Miss Morstan, “I saw an advertisement in the newspaper. The date was 4th May 1882. To my surprise, the advertisement asked for the address of Miss Mary Morstan. It said that if I advertised my address, I would receive some very good news.” “What did you do?” asked Holmes. “I advertised my address in the same newspaper. The next day, I received a small cardboard box. Inside the box was a lovely pearl (珍珠). And I have received another five pearls since that day. They arrive every year on the same day. Look.” She opened a flat box and showed us six beautiful pearls. “________” asked Holmes. “Nothing at all,” replied Miss Morstan. Then she continued. “But the strangest thing of all happened this morning. That is why I came to see you. This morning, I received a letter. Please read it.” “Thank you,” said Holmes. He took the letter and studied it carefully. 29．Miss Morstan came to see Holmes mainly because ________.

C．Who sent these beautiful pearls? D．These pearls were your father’s? C Hainan gibbons are the world’s rarest primates (灵长类动物). They only live in Hainan. Their daily life begins with the male heads of the five remaining families’ high and beautiful whistling (啸叫声). It can reach villagers down in the valleys which are 800 to 1,200 meters below. Sadly, gibbons once nearly died out. With the efforts of the researchers, their number has increased from less than 10 in two families to 35 in five families. Although gibbons can look at people curiously from a few meters away, it’s difficult to follow the gibbons. The best way to follow the gibbons is by sound at present. Like humans, gibbons produce vocal cues. With the help of the advanced cameras, we will learn more about their lifestyle and the way they express feelings like joy, anger and sadness. For the next six months, 11 researchers will work with other experts to study the information collected over the last year. Then they will finish a report on the voice characteristics of the gibbons, and try to explain their daily behavior. The database (数据库) is expected to be completed in three years. It will play a major role in researching and protecting gibbons and other rare plants and animals. The project is the first of its kind in China. It’s designed to follow all major rare plants and animals in a single protected area. Researchers suggested that we can explain not only gibbons’ simple communication but also their behavior in the future because of research into Hainan gibbon protection. The growth of Hainan gibbon population gives the whole world confidence to protect the endangered primates in the future. 33．What can we get from the numbers in Paragraph 1? A．Gibbons are active in the daytime. B．Gibbons can jump down from tall trees. C．Gibbons’ whistling can spread a long way. D．Gibbons often wake up the villagers in the valleys. 34．How does the writer show the researches’ efforts to protect the gibbons? A．By telling a story. B．By asking questions. C．By giving examples. D．By listing the numbers. 35．The database is set up to ________. A．follow all the rare plants and animals in the wild B．explain gibbons’ simple communication and behavior C．research and protect gibbons and other rare plants and animals D．help to study the information which was collected over the past year 36．The passage would most likely be found from the ________ part of a newspaper. A．news B．science C．interview D．literature D One of the differences between Chinese movies and those of foreign countries is bilingual subtitles (双语字幕). Two languages that we use as subtitles are Chinese and English. There are some reasons why Chinese movies have subtitles. The first reason is dialect (方言). Besides Mandarin and Cantonese.
