【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——这周五你能来我的生日派对吗?——我很想去,但我得准备我的数学考试。
考查情景交际用语。I’d love to我很想去;Sorry抱歉;I’m afraid I can’t恐怕我不能;No, I can’t不,我不能。根据后文“but I have to prepare for my math test”可知,在英语日常对话中,委婉拒绝邀请时,常用I’d love to, but...结构,表示虽有意愿但受限于原因,体现礼貌和遗憾。故选A。
2. Good news for boys! There ________ two basketball games next month.
A. is going to have B. are going to be C. are going to have D. is going to be
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:男孩们的好消息!下个月将有两场篮球赛。
考查there be结构的将来时。根据“There...next month”可知此处是there be结构的将来时there be going to be,主语是名词复数,be动词用are。故选B。

A. hardly; hardly B. hard; hard
C. hard; hardly D. hardly; hard
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:太糟糕了。雨下得如此之大,以至于我们几乎不能出去。
考查副词辨析。hard猛烈地;hardly几乎不。根据“It’s raining so...”可知,雨下得猛烈,第一空需用hard修饰;根据“we can...go out”可知,几乎不能出去,需用hardly表示否定含义。故选C。
4. —Is Ella popular in your class?
—No, she isn’t, because she doesn’t ________ others’ problems.
A. bring out B. care about C. feel like D. shout at
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——艾拉在你们班受欢迎吗?——不,她不受欢迎。因为她不关心别人的问题。
考查短语动词辨析。bring out使显现;care about关心;feel like想要;shout at对……大喊。根据“—Is Ella popular in your class? —No, she isn’t.”可知,艾拉在班里不受欢迎,原因是她对他人的问题漠不关心,故选B。
5. No clothes are ________ than those in Dream Clothes. The clothes there are ________ in our town.
A. bad; bad B. the worst; worse
C. worst; worse D. worse; the worst
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:没有衣服比Dream Clothes店的衣服更差。那里的衣服在我们镇上是最差的。
考查形容词比较级和最高级。bad形容词原形;worse比较级;the worst最高级。第一空前有“than”,表示比较,需用比较级“worse”;第二空后有“in our town”,表示范围,需用最高级“the worst”。故选D。
6. It's up to you ________ when we will start.
A. decide B. to decide C. decided D. deciding
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:由你来决定我们将在什么时候出发。根据句型It’s up to sb to do sth“由某人来决定做某事”,故此处用动词不定式to decide,故选B。
7. I don't really care if my friends are the same ________ me or different ________ me.
A. as;as B. from;from C. as;from D. from;as
【答案】C
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】句意:我确实不在意我的朋友是和我一样还是不一样。
考查介词辨析。as像……一样;from从,根据固定搭配the same as意为“和……一样”,be different from意为“与……不同”可知,应该是我确实不在意我的朋友是和我一样还是不一样,故选C。
8. ________ you win the first prize, I’ll take you to Sanya on vacation.
A. As long as B. So C. Although D. Because
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:只要你赢得一等奖,我会带你去三亚度假。
考查连词辨析。As long as只要;So所以;Although虽然;Because因为。前半部分“you win the first prize”表示条件,后半部分“I’ll take you to Sanya on vacation.”表示结果,因此需要表示条件的连词,As long as意为“只要”,引导条件状语从句,符合逻辑。故选A。
9. My grandfather wants _________ around the world because he enjoys _________ new places.
A. travelling; seeing B. to travel; to see C. to travel; seeing D. travelling; to see
【答案】C
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】句意:我爷爷想环游世界,因为他喜欢看新地方。
考查非谓语动词。第一空,根据“want to do sth.:想要做某事”可知,应填to travel,是动词不定式结构,故排除A和D;第二空,根据“enjoy doing sth.:喜欢做某事”,应填seeing,是动词的v-ing形式,故排除B,故选C。
10. Please ask your English teacher for help if you _________ the words.
A. don't know B. won't know C. didn't know D. aren't knowing
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:如果你不认识这些单词,请向你的英语老师求助。don’t know不认识,一般现在时;won’t know一般将来时;didn’t know一般过去时;aren’t knowing现在进行时。句中if引导的是条件状语从句,主句是祈使句,从句中应用一般现在时,故应选A。

After their parents took away the cloth, the twins were surprised to see a big board between them.
Dad asked, “What color is the board,my girls?” Lara opened her eyes and said, “It’s black!” But Tara said, “It’s white!” The two girls began to fight again.

Think about this: You are looking through the news headlines (标题) on the Internet, and then you see a special headline. It says, “Third Grade Class Adopts Pet Lion.” It sounds too good to be true, right?
Well, when you’re online, you may see a lot of pictures and news stories. They may make you laugh, think or teach you something. But keep in mind that not all of them are true.
Today there is some made-up news on the Internet and it looks real. Some news is made up to make fun of readers, but most news is trying to get readers to visit the websites (网站). The more visitors a website has, the more money it can make.
It’s important to learn how to tell fake (假的) news from true news. The following ideas may help you.
Start by looking at the website the story comes from.
There are many fake names. For example, The New York Times is a big newspaper. But there is no such newspaper called “New York City Times”.
Are the headlines and photos true?
Do an online search (搜索). If the news is true, other good websites should be reporting it, too.
Don’t just read the headline. Take some time to read the story. Made-up stories often have more spelling mistakes (错误) than true ones.
If you find a piece of fake news, please don’t share it, even though it may be fun. By doing this, you can help stop it from spreading (传播).
36. What’s the purpose (目的) of most made-up news online?
A. To get more readers to visit them. B. To make fun of readers.
C. To help readers become careful. D. To share information with others.

①Look at the website. ②Read the story.
③Be careful with the name of the newspaper. ④Search for the news on other websites.
A. ①-②-④-③ B. ①-④-③-② C. ①-④-②-③ D. ①-②-③-④
38. What should you do if you find fake news online?
A. Read it to your parents. B. Tell more people about the website.
C. Leave a message on the web page. D. Never share it with others.
39. What can we learn from the reading?
A. The news headlines should be common.
B. The true news is only on one website.
C. True news doesn’t have any spelling mistakes.
D. If the news is true, you can find it on other good websites.
40. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. How to write good news. B. How to share news on the Internet.
C. How to tell fake news from real news. D. How to stop fake news from spreading.
【答案】36. A 37. B 38. D 39. D 40. C

D
When you receive an invitation from others, please notice if it includes an RSVP. Some people may ask, “What is an RSVP?” In fact, “RSVP” is a short form of French words “répondez s’il vous plait”. An RSVP is a polite request from the sender to know whether or not you’ll be attending their event. Just as Judith Martin, better known by the pen name Miss Manners says, “If you receive an invitation with an RSVP on it, you’d better give your answer to the host as soon as possible.” It’s best to do it within 24 hours.
Many people don’t RSVP because they don’t want to let the host down. However, this usually causes more trouble than a simple no. For example, if the host is unclear about the number of the guests, they won’t know how much food to order or how many seats to prepare.
RSVP requests often include a deadline. A reasonable (合理的) RSVP deadline for guests is about two to four weeks before the event. If you want to attend but are unable to give a certain answer before the deadline, it’s best to refuse. You can get in touch with (联系) the host with your regrets and explain what is keeping you from being sure about your coming. The earlier you do that, the better.
Normally, invitations with an RSVP will have instructions (说明) on how to reply. A formal invitation, such as a wedding invitation, will have a reply card that you can return in its provided envelope (信封). Informal invitations, on the other hand, may have a telephone number, email address, texting address, or other ways to reply, with instructions. The most important thing to remember is that if you say you’ll attend, you should be there.
41. What does “RSVP” mean according to the passage?
A. Reply. B. Return. C. Remember. D. Research.
42. What might be the result if someone doesn’t RSVP according to the passage?
A. He may hurt the host’s feelings.
B. The host will expect him to be there.
C. He won’t receive any invitation from the host.
D. The host will have problems preparing for the event.
43. What does the underlined word “that” in Para. 3 refer to?
A. Tell the host you want to attend the event.
B. Call the host to prepare the food.
C. Be honest (诚实) with the host about your situation.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要解释了邀请函中“RSVP”的含义、重要性,以及未及时回复可能带来的问题,并提供了如何回复和注意事项的指导。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据第1段“An RSVP is a polite request from the sender to know whether or not you‘ll be attending their event.”可知,RSVP是发件人想知道你是否会参加活动的一个礼貌请求,即希望你“回复”。故选A。
【42题详解】
细节理解题。根据第2段“Many people don’t RSVP...However, this usually causes more trouble...if the host is unclear about the number of the guests, they won’t know how much food to order or how many seats to prepare.”可知,不回复RSVP会给主人的准备工作带来问题。故选D。
【43题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第3段“If you want to attend but are unable to give a certain answer before the deadline, it’s best to refuse. You can get in touch with the host with your regrets and explain what is keeping you from being sure about your coming. The earlier you do that, the better.”可知,“that”指代前一句的内容,即“联系主人表达遗憾并解释原因”。故选C。
【44题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“The most important thing to remember is that if you say you’ll attend, you should be there.”可知,如果你说会参加,你就应该到场。故选D。
【45题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知,全文围绕如何礼貌、恰当地回复邀请 (RSVP) 这一社交礼仪展开,这属于社交行为范畴。故选C。
第二部分(非选择题共35分)

【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了作者与父母在重庆度假的经历,包括当地的天气、美食、游玩的景点,以及作者在旅行中感受到的乐趣,还提到给朋友准备了礼物。
【46题详解】
句意:你最近一切都好吗?根据“is everything going with you?”可知,这是常用的问候语,How is everything going...表示“一切进展如何”,故填How。
【47题详解】
句意:我不喜欢这里的天气,但我喜欢美味的食物和美丽的风景。根据“I don’t like the weather here...I love the delicious food and beautiful scenery”可知,前文“不喜欢天气”与后文“喜欢美食和风景”是转折关系,故填but。
【48题详解】
句意:我和父母待在酒店里,感觉很无聊。felt是系动词,后接形容词;主语是人,需用bored“感到无聊的”,故填bored。
【49题详解】
句意:幸运的是,中午雨停了。此处需用副词修饰整个句子,lucky的副词形式是luckily,句首首字母大写,故填Luckily。
【50题详解】
句意:我们午餐吃了一些特别的东西——重庆火锅。根据“eat something special...lunch”可知,“for+三餐”是固定搭配,表示“作为某餐的食物”,故填for。
【51题详解】
句意:北京火锅和重庆火锅有很大的不同。a big后需接名词单数,different的名词形式是difference,故填difference。
【52题详解】
句意:那里有很多古老的建筑和来自世界各地的美食。lots of后接可数名词复数,build的名词形式是building,复数为buildings,故填buildings。
【53题详解】
句意:我们在那里尝试了意大利咖啡、意大利蛋糕和英国茶。短文描述的是过去的旅行经历,需用一般过去时,try的过去式是tried,故填tried。
【54题详解】
句意:一切都很好,我们玩得很开心。根据“we had...enjoyable time.”可知,enjoyable以元音音素开头,have an enjoyable time是固定短语,表示“玩得开心”,故填an。
【55题详解】
句意:一个给你,另一个给我。for是介词,后接人称代词宾格,I的宾格是me,故填me。

Tara and Lara are twins. They look like each other but they are different in other ways. Fast food is Lara’s favorite, but Tara doesn’t like it at all. Tara often watches funny programs,but Lara says those programs are meaningless. Lara likes dark colors, but Tara thinks those colors are only for boys. They often fight because one thinks the other is not right.
To end their fights, their parents decided to create a small game. One day they covered (覆盖) the girls’ eyes with black cloth,and then brought them to the dining room. In the room, there was a big board (木板) in the middle. Lara stood on one side (边) of the board and Tara on the other. They couldn’t see the other side of it. After their parents took away the cloth, the twins were surprised to see a big board between them.
Dad asked, “What color is the board,my girls?” Lara opened her eyes and said, “It’s black!” But Tara said, “It’s white!” The two girls began to fight again.
Then, Mom asked the twins to exchange their places. They got a big surprise. They found out that each of them was right in her own place.
Most of us are like Lara and Tara. Next time when you think others are wrong, please stand in their shoes.

Think about this: You are looking through the news headlines (标题) on the Internet, and then you see a special headline. It says, “Third Grade Class Adopts Pet Lion.” It sounds too good to be true, right?
Well, when you’re online, you may see a lot of pictures and news stories. They may make you laugh, think or teach you something. But keep in mind that not all of them are true.
Today, there is some made-up news on the Internet and it looks real. Some news is made up to make fun of readers, but most news is trying to get readers to visit the websites (网站). The more visitors a website has, the more money it can make.
It’s important to learn how to tell fake (假的) news from true news. The following ideas may help you.
Start by looking at the website the story comes from.
There are many fake names. For example, The New York Times is a big newspaper. But there is no such newspaper called “New York City Times”.
Are the headlines and photos true?
Do an online search (搜索). If the news is true other good websites should be reporting it, too.
Don’t just read the headline. Take some time to read the story. Made-up stories often have more spelling mistakes (错误) than true ones.
If you find a piece of fake news, please don’t share it, even though it may be fun. By doing this, you can help stop it from spreading (传播).
36. What’s the purpose (目的) of most made-up news online?
A. To get more readers to visit them. B. To make fun of readers.
C. To help readers become careful. D. To share information with others.
37. Which of the following is the right order?
①Look at the website. ②Read the story.
③Be careful with the name of the newspaper. ④Search for the news on other websites.
A. ①-②-④-③ B. ①-④-③-② C. ①-④-②-③ D. ①-②-③-④
38. What should you do if you find fake news online?
A. Read it to your parents. B. Tell more people about the website.
C. Leave a message on the web page. D. Never share it with others.
39. What can we learn from the reading?
A. The news headlines should be common.
B. The true news is only on one website.
C True news doesn’t have any spelling mistakes.
D. If the news is true, you can find it on other good websites.
40. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. How to write good news. B. How to share news on the Internet.
C. How to tell fake news from real news. D. How to stop fake news from spreading.
D
When you receive an invitation from others, please notice if it includes an RSVP. Some people may ask, “What is an RSVP?” In fact, “RSVP” is a short form of French words “répondez s’il vous plait”. An RSVP is a polite request from the sender to know whether or not you’ll be attending their event. Just as Judith Martin, better known by the pen name Miss Manners says, “If you receive an invitation with an RSVP on it, you’d better give your answer to the host as soon as possible.” It’s best to do it within 24 hours.
Many people don’t RSVP because they don’t want to let the host down. However, this usually causes more trouble than a simple no. For example, if the host is unclear about the number of the guests, they won’t know how much food to order or how many seats to prepare.
RSVP requests often include a deadline. A reasonable (合理的) RSVP deadline for guests is about two to four weeks before the event. If you want to attend but are unable to give a certain answer before the deadline, it’s best to refuse. You can get in touch with (联系) the host with your regrets and explain what is keeping you from being sure about your coming. The earlier you do that, the better.
Normally, invitations with an RSVP will have instructions (说明) on how to reply. A formal invitation, such as a wedding invitation, will have a reply card that you can return in its provided envelope (信封). Informal invitations, on the other hand, may have a telephone number, email address, texting address, or other ways to reply, with instructions. The most important thing to remember is that if you say you’ll attend, you should be there.
41. What does “RSVP” mean according to the passage?
A. Reply. B. Return. C. Remember. D. Research.
42. What might be the result if someone doesn’t RSVP according to the passage?
A. He may hurt the host’s feelings.
B. The host will expect him to be there.
C. He won’t receive any invitation from the host.
D. The host will have problems preparing for the event.
43. What does the underlined word “that” in Para. 3 refer to?
A. Tell the host you want to attend the event.
B. Call the host to prepare the food.
C. Be honest (诚实) with the host about your situation.
D. Refuse the invitation as soon as you receive it.
44. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Don’t care about RSVP.
B. If you receive an invitation with an RSVP on it, you’d better not give your answer to the host.
C. There isn’t an instruction on how to reply.
D. If you say you’ll attend, you should be there.
45. What’s the topic of the passage?
A. Friendship. B. Feelings. C. Social behaviour. D. School life.
