He studied in a teacher’s school in Beijing and became a head teacher in a primary school. Later, he went to London and taught Chinese there. Lao She had a way of describing everyday life of common people in China. That made his works come alive for readers, allowing them to understand the old Chinese society better. For example, “Rickshaw (黄包车) Boy” tells the story of a poor rickshaw puller’s hard life in Beijing. Lao She’s writing is very vivid (生动的) and detailed. He was good at using the Beijing dialect (方言), so his works are full of local flavor (特色). In 1966, he passed away unfortunately. However, his works have left precious cultural heritage for China and the world. Lao She is named“the People’s Artist”. His works, together with the long literary works by Mao Dun and Ba Jin, form (构成) the three pinnacles (顶峰) in the art of modern full-length novels. 1. What was Lao She’s life like when he was a child? A. Lucky. B. Poor. C. Colourful. D. Unhealthy. 2. Fu Hai is the hero (主人公) of This Life of Mine, one of Lao She’s works.

Rickshaw pullers. D. Beijing dialect. 4. What is the structure (结构) of the passage? (P1= Para 1; P2= Para 2…) A. B. C. D. 5. Which can be the best title of the passage? A.

Running is becoming one of the most popular sports these days. Many of us run for our health.

Doctors tell us, “Eat less, don’t smoke, have enough sleep and exercise more.” Running is just one of the best ways to exercise because it helps us to have a strong body. It also helps many people lose weight. A 25-year-old woman teacher runs in the morning five times a week. She runs to lose weight. “I feel comfortable and I’m not fat now,” she says. Running is good for health in other ways, too. Running can also help people become active (积极的). “After school, I like to run for ten minutes. Then I feel relaxed and comfortable,” says Yang Min, a middle school student. So today many students enjoy running. Do you want to keep healthy? Come on! Let’s join the Running Club after school! 11.

There were six children in the Evans family and Tony was the oldest. He was not good at learning words or numbers. He was not good at anything. Every Tuesday morning, an old lady called Mrs Lark came to school to play the piano and the children sang. It was the happiest day for Tony. In those days, poor children usually left school when they were thirteen. Tony’s mother sent Tony to Mr Wood’s farm when he was thirteen. From then on, Tony became a farm boy and he worked very hard. Tony liked his job very much. He sent his old clothes home for his brothers. He sent his family money, too. Mr Wood was kind to him and taught him a lot. Mr Wood had one daughter. Her name was Linda. She was one year younger than Tony. One hot summer afternoon, Mr Wood asked Tony to get the rubbish out of the garage because he wanted to keep his new car in it. Tony found an old piano in the garage when he was getting rid of the rubbish. He opened it and looked at the keys. He found an old broken chair and then he sat down at the piano. His fingers touched the keys. He closed his eyes and his fingers began to move. His fingers danced on the keys. He was suddenly very happy. At that time, Linda Wood was standing at the door. She was smiling now and she was singing very quietly. After she knew that Tony couldn’t read music, she decided to teach him. Tony put the piano into a classroom in a village school near the farm. Every evening after supper he borrowed Linda’s bike and went to play the piano. When it was dark, he cycled back to the farm again. One day when he played the piano in the classroom, Mr Gordon, the teacher at the little village school, found him. Mr Gordon stood and listened. There was a happy smile on his face. He thought Tony was a born musician so he decided to teach Tony to play the piano for free. Mr Gordon visited the farm and talked with Mr and Mrs Wood. He said Tony must go to the College of Music in London. Mr and Mrs Wood agreed to let Tony practice on the piano for two hours every day. They would also send Tony to the College of Music. Tony learned very fast and he went to the College of Music for three years. Later Tony and Linda fell in love with each other and they married. Anthony Evans finally became a very famous and successful pianist. Perhaps we can say that he does not find music, but that music finds him. 16. What subject may Tony like best at school? A. Maths. B. Art. C. PE. D. Music. 17. Where did Tony put the old piano? A. At his home. B. At a school. C. At his friend’s home. D. In Linda’s room. 18. Who paid for the College of Music for Tony? A. His father. B. Tony’s friend. C. Mr Gordon. D. Mr Wood. 19. Please put the sentences in right order. ①Linda taught him music. ②Tony went to work on the farm. ③Tony went to the College of Music. ④Tony found an old piano in Mr Wood’s home. ⑤Tony did not enjoy his lessons at school. ⑥Mr Gordon taught Tony to play the piano for free.

They would also send Tony to the College of Music（Wood夫妇同意让Tony每天练两个小时钢琴，他们还会送Tony去音乐学院）”可知，是Mr Wood支付Tony的音乐学院费用。故选D。 【19题详解】 细节理解题。事件的正确顺序：⑤Tony在学校不喜欢上课→②Tony去农场工作→④Tony在Wood家发现旧钢琴→①Linda教他音乐→⑥Gordon先生免费教他弹钢琴→③Tony去音乐学院。 对应选项D的“⑤②④①⑥③”。故选D。 【20题详解】 主旨大意题。文章围绕Tony与钢琴的缘分展开：从学校喜欢钢琴课，到农场发现旧钢琴、展现天赋，再到学习钢琴并成为钢琴家。核心是“贫困男孩热爱钢琴”。故选B。 三、短文还原 （共5空，每空2分，计10分） 阅读短文，从下面的五个句子中选择合适的选项，使短文通顺完整、衔接自然。 The Year of Sharing I’ve just lived through the worst two weeks of my life.

I find a few wild vegetables and a little fruit every day and I drink Mother’s milk before I sleep. ____25____ These deer eat all the time. They like eating from some trees, not others.

Let’s start with the fact that animals are like the stars in the movie about ecosystem (生态系统). Take bees as an example. They might be small, but they’re like the world’s tiniest delivery (传递) guys. They buzz (嗡嗡地飞) around and pollinate (授粉) flowers to help the plants have baby plants. If bees disappear, it’s like the flower shops in nature shutting down! And then I’d like to talk about monkeys. They’re like the acrobats (杂技演员) of the forest. They jump around, play, and make the jungle a lively place. If we don’t protect them, the jungle will become a room without any fun. The capybara (水豚), a cute animal, has become popular online. People love it for its friendly nature and relaxing lifestyle. It’s the largest rodent (啮齿动物) on Earth. Scientists say that it doesn’t have a survival crisis (生存危机). But we still need to…or we will regret (后悔) it sooner or later. We share this planet with animals. We can’t just be the bullies (横行霸道者) and take away their homes or hunt them for no good reason. We must do what we can to protect them. That’s because protecting animals means we get to keep this wonderful, wild, and wacky world of ours full of life and laughter. 46. How do bees help the plants have baby plants? ________________________________________________ 47. Why do people need to protect monkeys according to the passage? ________________________________________________ 48. 判断正 (T) 误 (F）。The capybara doesn’t have a survival crisis so we needn’t do anything for it now. ________________________________________________ 49. Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese. ________________________________________________ 50. What else can we do to protect the animals? ________________________________________________ 【答案】46. They (buzz around and) pollinate flowers./By pollinating flowers. 47. Because monkeys jump around, play, and make the jungle a lively place; if we don’t protect them, the jungle will become a room without any fun. 48. F 49. 我们必须尽我们所能去保护它们。 50. We can plant more trees/raise some money/set up nature parks/... 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要以蜜蜂、猴子、水豚为例，介绍了动物在生态系统中的作用，强调保护动物的重要性，呼吁人类与动物共享地球、保护动物。 【46题详解】 根据文章“They buzz around and pollinate flowers to help the plants have baby plants.”可知，蜜蜂通过给花授粉帮助植物繁殖。故填They (buzz around and) pollinate flowers./By pollinating flowers. 【47题详解】 根据文章“They jump around, play, and make the jungle a lively place. If we don’t protect them, the jungle will become a room without any fun.”可知，保护猴子是因为它们能让丛林充满生机，若不保护丛林会失去乐趣。故填Because monkeys jump around, play, and make the jungle a lively place; if we don’t protect them, the jungle will become a room without any fun. 【48题详解】 根据文章“Scientists say that it doesn’t have a survival crisis. But we still need to...or we will regret it sooner or later.”可知，即使水豚没有生存危机，也需要保护，题干表述错误。故填F。 【49题详解】 “must”是情态动词，表示“必须”，“We must do”译为“我们必须做”；“what we can”是宾语从句，意为“我们所能做的（事）”，简化为“尽我们所能”；“to protect them”是不定式作目的状语，译为“去保护它们”。故填“我们必须尽我们所能去保护它们。” 【50题详解】 结合保护动物的实际做法，可得出“多种树、筹集资金、建立自然公园”等合理措施。故填We can plant more trees/raise some money/set up nature parks/... 六、书面表达 (20分） 51. 我县即将举办“美丽家乡”宣讲会，现面向中学生招募义务英文宣讲员。请你根据招募启事，给旅游局写一封自荐信。 1. 必须包括以下全部内容，可适当发挥，使文章流畅； 2. 至少包含一条自己的想法和观点； 3. 文中不得出现真实的姓名和校名； 4. 字迹工整；字数不少于80 （开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数）。 Dear sir/ madam, I’m learning that you need a speaker for the home town publicity (宣传) meeting.

He studied in a teacher’s school in Beijing and became a head teacher in a primary school. Later, he went to London and taught Chinese there. Lao She had a way of describing everyday life of common people in China. That made his works come alive for readers, allowing them to understand the old Chinese society better. For example, “Rickshaw (黄包车) Boy” tells the story of a poor rickshaw puller’s hard life in Beijing. Lao She’s writing is very vivid (生动的) and detailed. He was good at using the Beijing dialect (方言), so his works are full of local flavor (特色). In 1966, he passed away unfortunately. However, his works have left precious cultural heritage for China and the world. Lao She is named“the People’s Artist”. His works, together with the long literary works by Mao Dun and Ba Jin, form (构成) the three pinnacles (顶峰) in the art of modern full-length novels. 1.

Doctors say many of the health questions come from bad habits (习惯), such as eating too much or too little, drinking too much, smoking (吸烟), staying up late (熬夜) and not having enough exercise. Doctors tell us, “Eat less, don’t smoke, have enough sleep and exercise more.” Running is just one of the best ways to exercise because it helps us to have a strong body. It also helps many people lose weight. A 25-year-old woman teacher runs in the morning five times a week. She runs to lose weight. “I feel comfortable and I’m not fat now,” she says. Running is good for health in other ways, too. Running can also help people become active (积极的). “After school, I like to run for ten minutes. Then I feel relaxed and comfortable,” says Yang Min, a middle school student. So today many students enjoy running. Do you want to keep healthy? Come on! Let’s join the Running Club after school! 11.

There were six children in the Evans family and Tony was the oldest. He was not good at learning words or numbers. He was not good at anything. Every Tuesday morning, an old lady called Mrs Lark came to school to play the piano and the children sang. It was the happiest day for Tony. In those days, poor children usually left school when they were thirteen. Tony’s mother sent Tony to Mr Wood’s farm when he was thirteen. From then on, Tony became a farm boy and he worked very hard. Tony liked his job very much. He sent his old clothes home for his brothers. He sent his family money, too. Mr Wood was kind to him and taught him a lot. Mr Wood had one daughter. Her name was Linda. She was one year younger than Tony. One hot summer afternoon, Mr Wood asked Tony to get the rubbish out of the garage because he wanted to keep his new car in it. Tony found an old piano in the garage when he was getting rid of the rubbish. He opened it and looked at the keys. He found an old broken chair and then he sat down at the piano. His fingers touched the keys. He closed his eyes and his fingers began to move. His fingers danced on the keys. He was suddenly very happy. At that time, Linda Wood was standing at the door. She was smiling now and she was singing very quietly. After she knew that Tony couldn’t read music, she decided to teach him. Tony put the piano into a classroom in a village school near the farm. Every evening after supper he borrowed Linda’s bike and went to play the piano. When it was dark, he cycled back to the farm again. One day when he played the piano in the classroom, Mr Gordon, the teacher at the little village school, found him. Mr Gordon stood and listened. There was a happy smile on his face. He thought Tony was a born musician so he decided to teach Tony to play the piano for free. Mr Gordon visited the farm and talked with Mr and Mrs Wood. He said Tony must go to the College of Music in London. Mr and Mrs Wood agreed to let Tony practice on the piano for two hours every day. They would also send Tony to the College of Music. Tony learned very fast and he went to the College of Music for three years. Later Tony and Linda fell in love with each other and they married. Anthony Evans finally became a very famous and successful pianist. Perhaps we can say that he does not find music, but that music finds him. 16. What subject may Tony like best at school? A. Maths. B. Art. C. PE. D. Music. 17. Where did Tony put the old piano? A. At his home. B. At a school. C. At his friend’s home. D. In Linda’s room. 18. Who paid for the College of Music for Tony? A.
