A. /; / B. /; a C. the ; the D. a; the 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：民间音乐有浓郁的地方色彩。民间音乐会的门票今天有一个特别优惠。 考查冠词用法。a“一个”，表示泛指，用于发音以辅音音素开头的单词之前；an“一个”，表示泛指，用于发音以元音音素开头的单词之前；the“那个”，表示特指。第一空，“local colour” (地方色彩) 为抽象名词，表示一般概念时，使用零冠词；第二空，“special offer” (特别优惠) 为可数名词单数，表示泛指“一个”，需用不定冠词“a”。故选B。 2. Many tourists gather in Tian’anmen Square early in the morning to watch the _________ of the national flag. A. raising B. rising C. raises D. rises 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：许多游客清晨聚集在天安门广场观看国旗的升起。 考查动词辨析。raising举起，动名词形式；rising上升，动名词形式；raises举起，动词第三人称单数；rises上升，动词第三人称单数。根据“the...of”可知，此处应用动名词；“国旗的升起”是人为操作的动作，“raising”强调人为举起，而“rising”指自然上升。故选A。 3. —What was the ending of this film? —It was so surprising and went _________ my imagination. A. across B. over C. through D. beyond 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——这部电影的结局是什么？——它太令人惊讶了，超出了我的想象。 考查介词辨析。across横穿；over越过；through穿过；beyond超出。根据“It was so surprising”可知，结局令人惊讶，因此超出了想象。故选D。 4. —We’d better not go out alone at night either.

A. give up B. turn up C. make up D. get up 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你的语文老师刚才说了什么？——她让我们用黑板上的所有关键词编造一个故事。 考查短语动词辨析。give up放弃；turn up出现；调高；make up编造；get up起床。根据“…a story with all the key words”可知，应是用关键词编造故事，强调虚构或创作。故选C。 7. —What are you going to do this weekend, Lily? —I am not sure _________ we’ll go to see the movie My People, My Country or not. A. if B. that C. though D. whether 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——莉莉，这个周末你打算做什么？——我不确定我们是否会去看电影《我和我的祖国》。 考查连词辨析。if如果/是否；that宾语从句中，无实意；though虽然；whether是否。根据句中“I am not sure...we’ll go to see the movie My People, My Country or not.”可知，此处表示我不确定我们是否会去看电影，whether...or not“是否”。故选D。 8. Bill thought _________ necessary to work with friends and share different ideas. A. this B. that C. it is D. it 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：Bill认为与朋友合作并分享不同的想法是必要的。 考查it作形式宾语。this这个；that那个；it is它是；it它。在英语中，动词如think, find, consider等后接形容词加不定式时，常用it作形式宾语，避免头重脚轻。此处需填入it作形式宾语，指代后面的不定式短语“to work with friends and share different ideas”。故选D。 9. —Walking more is good for our health. —You’re right. So I’d rather _______ an hour’s walk to work than consider ________ a car. A. take; driving B. take; drive C. take; to drive D. to take; driving 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】试题分析：— 多散步对我们的健康有好处。—你说对了。所以我宁愿走一个小时的路去上班也不考虑开车。固定搭配take a walk 散步， drive a car 开车。would rather 跟动词原形，更愿意做某事；consider doing，考虑做某事。故选A。 考点：考查非谓语动词的用法。 10.

A. live; high B. lively; high C. live; highly D. lively; highly 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：他有一种奇怪的方式让他的课堂生动，其他所有老师都高度评价他。 考查形容词和副词用法。live活着的，形容词；high高的，形容词；lively生动的，活泼的，形容词；highly高度地，副词。根据“He has a strange way to make his class…”可知，此处指让他的课堂生动，第一空应填入形容词lively，作宾语补足语；根据“all the other teachers think…of him.”可知，此处指其他所有老师都高度评价他，应填入highly，副词，修饰动词短语think of。故选D。 11. The number of the teachers in our school _________ bigger last term. A number of teachers _________ for over ten years now. A. grew, have worked B. grows, has worked C. grows, have worked D. grew, are working 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们学校老师的数量上学期增加了。许多老师现在已经工作了十多年。 考查时态和主谓一致。第一空，主语为“The number of the teachers”，“the number of”表示“……的数量”，是单数概念，谓语动词需用单数形式；时间状语“last term”表示过去时间，时态为一般过去时，因此这里应用过去式grew“增加”，排除B和C； 第二空，主语为“A number of teachers”，“a number of”表示“许多”，是复数概念，谓语动词需用复数形式；时间状语“for over ten years now”表示动作从过去持续至今，时态应用现在完成时，助动词用have，动词work的过去分词为worked，即have worked，排除D。故选A。 12 —Thank you for helping me find my lost son. —_________. Many hands make light work. A. All right B. Never mind C. Don’t mention it D. It doesn’t matter. 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——谢谢你帮我找到我丢失的儿子。——不用客气。众人拾柴火焰高。 考查情境交际用语。All right好的；Never mind没关系；Don’t mention it别客气；It doesn’t matter没关系。当对方表达感谢时，应选择表示“不客气”的礼貌回应。选项C“Don’t mention it”意为“不用谢”，直接用于回应感谢，符合语境。故选C。 13. —He’s never stolen anything before, ________ he? —________. It’s his second time to be taken to the police station. A. hasn’t; Yes B. has; Yes C. has; No D. is; No 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——他以前从未偷过东西，是吗？——不是。这是他第二次被带到警察局了。 考查反意疑问句及回答。根据题干“He’s never stolen anything before”可知，陈述部分含有否定词never，反意疑问部分用肯定形式，且时态为现在完成时，故第一空用has。回答部分根据“It’s his second time…”可知他以前偷过东西，用Yes表示“不，他偷过”。故选B。 14. I thought the job would be a success. But it_________to be a mess! A. turned into B. turned out C. turned away D. turned off 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】试题分析：句意：我原以为这份工作会是一个成功的工作。但是它结果是一团糟。turn into变成； turn out结果是； turn away避开； turn off关上。turn out to be+形容词/名词“结果是”。故选B。 考点：考查动词短语词义辨析。 15. — I am not allowed to bring my mobile phone to school. — _______. Our teacher says it’s bad for our study. A. So are we B. So do we C. Neither are we D. Neither do we 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我不被允许带手机去学校。——我们也是。我们老师说这对我们的学习不好。 考查倒装句的用法。So are we表示“我们也是”（用于肯定句，且前句是be动词）；So do we表示“我们也是”（用于肯定句，且前句是实义动词）；Neither are we表示“我们也不”（用于否定句，且前句是be动词）；Neither do we表示“我们也不”（用于否定句，且前句是实义动词）。根据前句“am not allowed”是否定句且使用be动词，因此要用“Neither are we”。故选C。 16. He is charged with theft because he _________ others’ houses last week. A. broke up B. broke into C. broke down D. broke out 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：他被指控盗窃，因为他上周闯入了别人的房子。 考查动词短语辨析。broke up分手；解散；broke into闯入；broke down崩溃；故障；broke out爆发。根据“He is charged with theft” (被指控盗窃) 和“others’ houses” (别人的房子) 可知，这里表示他闯入了别人的房子。故选B。 17.

A. so, that B. such a, that C. so a, that D. quite a, that 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：所有老师都认为他是一个如此好的讲故事者以至于他将来会成为一个好作家。 考查结果状语从句。“such a/an + 形容词 + 名词 + that从句 / so + 形容词 + that从句”是固定用法，意为“如此……以至于……”，such...that引导结果状语从句。故选B。 18. —You should do some housework for me _________ you have grown up. —OK, dad, I will _________ I have a lot of homework to do. A. unless, since B. since, if C. although, until D. since, unless 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你应该为我做一些家务，因为你已经长大了。——好的，爸爸，我会做，除非我有很多作业要做。 考查连词辨析。unless除非；since因为；if如果；although虽然；until直到。根据“You should do some housework for me...you have grown up.”可知，第一空表示原因（“你已经长大”是“做家务”的理由），用since；根据“I will...I have a lot of homework to do.”可知，第二空表示条件（“有作业”是“不做家务”的例外情况），用unless。故选D。 19. —What about the young man who was running in the rain? —He ________ the case He was just in a hurry to catch a bus. A. has nothing to do with B. had nothing to do with C. has something to do with D. had something to do with 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——那个在雨中奔跑的年轻人呢？——他跟这个案子无关。他只是急着赶公交车。 考查动词短语和一般过去时。has nothing to do with与……无关，一般现在时；had nothing to do with与……无关，一般过去时；has something to do with与……有关，一般现在时；had something to do with与……有关，一般过去时。根据“He was just in a hurry to catch a bus”可知，此处在描述过去的事件，因此需要使用一般过去时，谓语应用动词have的过去式，并且此处解释了这位年轻人只是急着赶公交车，因此应与案件无关。故选B。 D. has something to do with D. had something to do with 20. The two-hour documentary describes _________ in the future. A. how Suzhou will be like B. what will Suzhou be like C. how Suzhou will be D. what Suzhou will like 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：这部两小时的纪录片描述了苏州未来会是什么样子。 考查宾语从句。how Suzhou will be like中“how”与“be like”搭配不当；what will Suzhou be like，使用了疑问句语序，错误；how Suzhou will be，用于询问事物状态，且使用了陈述语序；what Suzhou will like中“like”为动词，意为“喜欢”，不符合语境，所以C项符合。故选C。 二、 完形填空 阅读短文，从每题所给选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。(15分) Tiger shoes are often found on babies' feet in the countryside of China today.

About 20 minutes later I came to the alleyway that leads to my house. This alleyway is known to be quite dangerous. As I was about a quarter of the way down it, I suddenly wanted to look behind me. When I looked behind, I thought I saw the figure of a man. He looked strangely familiar, a top hat, a coat which fanned out at the top and bottom and rather tall. I looked closer and a moment of fear went through my mind as I saw what looked like a long knife in his hand. I turned around and started walking faster, being careful not to run as he might chase (追) after me. It wasn’t long before I had wanted to turn around again, and when I did, he wasn’t there.   Breathed a sigh of relief and caught my breath a bit. Feeling like I must have imagined it through paranoia (妄想狂). I turned back around. I couldn’t help myself, I screamed in fright as the same figure was in front of me, only a lot, lot closer. I could clearly see the details of his clothes, the knife, and then all those reminded me of the deathly figure of the infamous Jack the Ripper (开膛手杰克). I didn’t know what to do then. Jack the Ripper died a long time ago, didn’t he? I turned on my heel and started to run but my body didn’t move. Someone was grabbing (抓住) my arm, I slowly turned my head and a horrible face frightened me. His eyes were grey and bloodshot with huge black bags below them. His skin looked as if it was burnt and sore, and his teeth were yellow, but there were cracks in them with a red stain.   I screamed again and tried to get my arm free but the man had pushed me on to the ground. He kneeled down over me and moved the knife close to my stomach. I screamed in pain as the knife cut my skin. I couldn’t lie there and let him kill me, so I bit the hand which was over my mouth and ran away from him. I ran back in the direction of my house but I forgot about my school bag which I had dropped while trying to get away. I then fell and smacked my head against the road. As everything went black, a tear came from my eye as I saw his boots stop near my side. I smiled a bit as I would not have to feel the pain as he cut my body.   To my surprise, I woke up in my bed the next morning. I thought I was dreaming and that I would have to go through that boring school day again, but as I sat up, a sharp pain cut through my stomach. I lifted up my top and saw a knife shaped wound. My mum came into my room, and saw I was awake. She said that someone had seen me fall and run to help me, I got out of bed and went downstairs to thank him. I went to shake the man’s hand, and froze in fear, when the man smiled, his teeth were yellow, and they had cracks stained with something red... 41. Who did the girl go home with that night? A. Her mother. B. Her friend. C. Jack the Ripper. D. Nobody. 42. When she turned back for the third time, the girl saw _________. A. the figure of a man far behind her B. the same figure of a man much closer to her C. nobody but her shadow D. Jack the Ripper himself 43.

B. She tried to get away from the man successfully. C. She was caught twice by the man and the man cut her body with the knife. D. She killed the man with his knife and ran away. 45. Why did the girl freeze in fear when she shook hands with the man who saved her? A. Because the man wanted to kill her too. B. Because the man had a knife in his hand. C. Because the man said nothing just smiled. D. Because from his teeth the girl realized it was the man she met the night before. 【答案】41. D 42. B 43. B 44. C 45. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了一个女孩在独自走夜路回家时遭遇恐怖经历的故事。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据“My mother didn’t come to pick me up, so I walked home alone.”可知，女孩那天晚上是自己走回家的，没有人陪她。故选D。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据“I couldn’t help myself, I screamed in fright as the same figure was in front of me, only a lot, lot closer.”可知，当女孩第三次回头时，她看到同样的身影离她更近了。故选B。 【43题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“I then fell and smacked my head against the road.”以及后文描述女孩晕倒可知，女孩摔倒时头撞到了路上，smacked在此处意为“撞击”，与hit意思相近。故选B。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段描述可知，女孩第一次被男人抓住时，她咬了男人的手并逃脱了，但随后她又摔倒并撞到了头，晕了过去。在晕倒前，她看到男人的刀靠近了她的肚子，并感到疼痛，说明男人再次抓住了她并用刀割了她。因此，女孩被男人抓住了两次，并且男人用刀割了她的身体。故选C。 【45题详解】 细节理解题。根据“I went to shake the man’s hand, and froze in fear, when the man smiled, his teeth were yellow, and they had cracks stained with something red...”可知，女孩在和救她的男人握手时，看到男人的牙齿是黄色的，并且有红色的污渍，这让她意识到这个男人就是她昨晚遇到的那个男人，因此她吓得僵住了。故选D。 C Hundreds of people attended the premiere (首映) of the movie My People, My Country at a Los Angeles cinema on Sept. 30. Waving Chinese flags in their hands, audiences sang My People, My Country together at the start of the film, its theme song that serves as a thread throughout (贯穿) the movie The song is a patriotic (爱国的) Chinese classic, known to every family. It was first sung by singer Li Guyi in 1985. It was reworked for the movie by pop singer Faye Wong. Made up of seven short stories from seven directors, led by Chen Kaige, the film draws on the nation’s greatest technological and cultural achievements starting with the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949. Yet the film does not focus on the historical moments themselves, but rather shows events through the eyes of ordinary people who worked for them and were influenced by them. The short story The Guiding Star, for example, follows a pair of brothers who saw the landing of the capsule of the Shenzhou XI manned spacecraft on Nov. 18, 2016 in Inner Mongolia and who were filled with pride and hope at that moment. “If a person encounters a historical opportunity to be changed, the inspiring power generated is unbelievable,” Chen told China.org.cn. “In my story, the landing of Shenzhou XI changed the lives of two teenagers, changed their destiny and allowed them to gain new hope.” In another short story, Going Home, Simon Yam plays a clock repairer who witnessed the return of Hong Kong from British rule to China in 1997. The actor himself has experienced the power of hope. “On the day of Hong Kong’s return, I felt it wasn’t just a return to the motherland, but the return of hearts,” he told China.org.cn. “When the flag was raised, I felt like, ‘We are home. We feel secured and assured’.” The film certainly struck a patriotic chord with many. In a survey ranking audience satisfaction, My People, My Country came in first among 267 domestic films released since 2015. The survey was done by the China Film Art Research Center. 46. When audiences sang My People, My Country together at the start of the film, they _________. A. sat in the theatre B. waved Chinese flags in their hands C. stood along the road D. hugged together and jumped excitedly 47. How many directors directed the movie My People, My Country?

But are everybody’s dreams the same? Here are some of the findings of a survey about hopes and dreams in which thousands of students across China took part. What are the hopes of teenagers? We received several different answers to the question: what would you like to do after you finish your education? It seems that some students would like to start work as soon as they can., so that they can help offer their parents better lives. Other students hope to go on studying after they finish school and to go to university. Although money is important, many teenagers said they want to do jobs they like. According to the survey, the most popular choice of job is computer programming. What are the dreams of teenagers? Teenagers have all kinds of dreams. Some are more realistic than others. For example, many students said they would like to be volunteers if Beijing could hold the World Cup, maybe working as translators or tour guides. And quite a few said they dream of having a trip to every corner of the world one day. According to the survey, less realistic dreams are also common, but many students reported that they were willing to work hard to achieve dreams. Quite a few dreamed of becoming famous, perhaps famous sports people or singers. Some students said they would like to go on exciting trips. One student said she would love to sail across the Pacific Ocean. And then there are dreams that are impossible. Three students said they would like to be able to fly! Conclusion: It was clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes. It seems that most students hope to have a good education and find a good job. On the other hand, students dream of very different things: good things, and even crazy things. It is very important to dream, so hold on to your dreams; one day they may just be realized.

Some are more realistic than others. For example, many students said they would like to be volunteers if Beijing could hold the World Cup, maybe working as translators or tour guides. And quite a few said they dream of having a trip to every corner of the world one day.”可知，这里指的是青少年的梦想。dream梦想，主语是复数，所以此处也应用复数与其对应。故填dreams。 【56题详解】 根据“And quite a few said they dream of having a trip to every corner of the world one day.”可知，一些学生梦想能够周游世界。travel around the world表示“周游世界”，and连接的两个动词前后应保持一致，由working可知，空处应填动名词。故填travelling/traveling。 【57题详解】 根据“According to the survey, less realistic dreams are also common”和“Quite a few dreamed of becoming famous, perhaps famous sports people or singers...”可知，空处指的是不太现实的梦想。故填less。 【58题详解】 根据“And then there are dreams that are impossible. Three students said they would like to be able to fly!”可知，能飞的梦想是不可能实现的，achieve one’s dream和realize one’s dream都表示“实现梦想”，to后跟动词原形。故填achieve/realize。 【59题详解】 根据“It is clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes....On the other hand, students dream of very different things:”可知，青少年的希望是相似的，但是梦想不同，故填similar。 【60题详解】 根据“It is very important to dream, so hold on to your dreams; one day they may just be realized.”可知，这里指是如果不抓住梦想并付诸努力，你就不可能实现它。without“没有”，介词，后跟动名词。故填without。 五、 词汇运用 根据括号内汉语提示填词，或用括号内所给单词的适当形式填空。(15分) A．根据句意和汉语提示，在空白处填入一个适当的单词。(每空限一个词)。(7分) 61.

The main purpose of the advertisement is to _________. A. find excellent writers B. attract more book buyers C. celebrate Children’s Day D. introduce new reading courses B My mother didn’t come to pick me up, so I walked home alone. About 20 minutes later I came to the alleyway that leads to my house. This alleyway is known to be quite dangerous. As I was about a quarter of the way down it, I suddenly wanted to look behind me. When I looked behind, I thought I saw the figure of a man. He looked strangely familiar, a top hat, a coat which fanned out at the top and bottom and rather tall. I looked closer and a moment of fear went through my mind as I saw what looked like a long knife in his hand. I turned around and started walking faster, being careful not to run as he might chase (追) after me. It wasn’t long before I had wanted to turn around again, and when I did, he wasn’t there.   Breathed a sigh of relief and caught my breath a bit. Feeling like I must have imagined it through paranoia (妄想狂). I turned back around. I couldn’t help myself, I screamed in fright as the same figure was in front of me, only a lot, lot closer. I could clearly see the details of his clothes, the knife, and then all those reminded me of the deathly figure of the infamous Jack the Ripper (开膛手杰克). I didn’t know what to do then. Jack the Ripper died a long time ago, didn’t he? I turned on my heel and started to run but my body didn’t move. Someone was grabbing (抓住) my arm, I slowly turned my head and a horrible face frightened me. His eyes were grey and bloodshot with huge black bags below them. His skin looked as if it was burnt and sore, and his teeth were yellow, but there were cracks in them with a red stain.   I screamed again and tried to get my arm free but the man had pushed me on to the ground. He kneeled down over me and moved the knife close to my stomach. I screamed in pain as the knife cut my skin. I couldn’t lie there and let him kill me, so I bit the hand which was over my mouth and ran away from him. I ran back in the direction of my house but I forgot about my school bag which I had dropped while trying to get away. I then fell and smacked my head against the road. As everything went black, a tear came from my eye as I saw his boots stop near my side. I smiled a bit as I would not have to feel the pain as he cut my body.   To my surprise, I woke up in my bed the next morning. I thought I was dreaming and that I would have to go through that boring school day again, but as I sat up, a sharp pain cut through my stomach. I lifted up my top and saw a knife shaped wound.

C Hundreds of people attended the premiere (首映) of the movie My People, My Country at a Los Angeles cinema on Sept. 30. Waving Chinese flags in their hands, audiences sang My People, My Country together at the start of the film, its theme song that serves as a thread throughout (贯穿) the movie The song is a patriotic (爱国的) Chinese classic, known to every family. It was first sung by singer Li Guyi in 1985. It was reworked for the movie by pop singer Faye Wong. Made up of seven short stories from seven directors, led by Chen Kaige, the film draws on the nation’s greatest technological and cultural achievements starting with the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949. Yet the film does not focus on the historical moments themselves, but rather shows events through the eyes of ordinary people who worked for them and were influenced by them. The short story The Guiding Star, for example, follows a pair of brothers who saw the landing of the capsule of the Shenzhou XI manned spacecraft on Nov. 18, 2016 in Inner Mongolia and who were filled with pride and hope at that moment. “If a person encounters a historical opportunity to be changed, the inspiring power generated is unbelievable,” Chen told China.org.cn. “In my story, the landing of Shenzhou XI changed the lives of two teenagers, changed their destiny and allowed them to gain new hope.” In another short story, Going Home, Simon Yam plays a clock repairer who witnessed the return of Hong Kong from British rule to China in 1997. The actor himself has experienced the power of hope. “On the day of Hong Kong’s return, I felt it wasn’t just a return to the motherland, but the return of hearts,” he told China.org.cn. “When the flag was raised, I felt like, ‘We are home. We feel secured and assured’.” The film certainly struck a patriotic chord with many. In a survey ranking audience satisfaction, My People, My Country came in first among 267 domestic films released since 2015. The survey was done by the China Film Art Research Center. 46.

But are everybody’s dreams the same? Here are some of the findings of a survey about hopes and dreams in which thousands of students across China took part. What are the hopes of teenagers? We received several different answers to the question: what would you like to do after you finish your education? It seems that some students would like to start work as soon as they can., so that they can help offer their parents better lives. Other students hope to go on studying after they finish school and to go to university. Although money is important, many teenagers said they want to do jobs they like. According to the survey, the most popular choice of job is computer programming. What are the dreams of teenagers? Teenagers have all kinds of dreams. Some are more realistic than others. For example, many students said they would like to be volunteers if Beijing could hold the World Cup, maybe working as translators or tour guides. And quite a few said they dream of having a trip to every corner of the world one day. According to the survey, less realistic dreams are also common, but many students reported that they were willing to work hard to achieve dreams. Quite a few dreamed of becoming famous, perhaps famous sports people or singers. Some students said they would like to go on exciting trips. One student said she would love to sail across the Pacific Ocean. And then there are dreams that are impossible. Three students said they would like to be able to fly! Conclusion: It was clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes. It seems that most students hope to have a good education and find a good job. On the other hand, students dream of very different things: good things, and even crazy things. It is very important to dream, so hold on to your dreams; one day they may just be realized.
