I’m writing to pass the time. I think I have a plan for next lesson: I will try to sit near some popular girls. But I guess this plan might be a problem. Man, I don’t know what is wrong with girls these days. It used to be much simpler back in primary school. The deal was that if you were the fastest runner in your class, you got all the girls. And in the fifth grade, the fastest runner was Ronnie McCoy. These days, it’s a whole lot more complicated (复杂的). Now it’s about the kind of clothes you wear or how rich you are or if you have a cute butt (屁股) or whatever. And kids like Ronnie McCoy are scratching (抓) their heads and want to know what the matter was. The most popular boy in my grade is Bryce Anderson. The puzzle (迷惑) thing is that: I like the pretty girls all the time, but kids like Bryce have only come around in the last couple of years. I remember how Bryce used to act back in primary school. But of course now I don’t get any credit (身份) for keeping staying with the girls all this time. As I said, Bryce is the most popular kid in our grade, so that leaves all the other guys scrambling for the other spots. The best I can think of is that I’m somewhere around 52nd or 53rd most popular this year. But the good news is that I’m about to move up one spot because Charlie Davies is above me, I hear that he’s going to hospital to get his braces next week. I try to explain something about popularity to my friend Rowley (He is probably hovering (徘徊) right around the 150 mark, by the way), but I think it just goes in one ear and out the other with him. — Adapted from Diary of a Wimpy Kid 51. Why is the writer writing in his book? A. Because the teacher asked him to. B. To kill time while waiting. C. To practice his writing skills. D. To write down his new plan. 52. The word “braces” in this sentence most probably means ________. A. a support for a broken leg B. bands to hold up pants C. a cool pair of new shoes D. something to make teeth straight 53. What is the main idea of this diary? A. The changes about the rules of popularity B. Rowley’s idea about popularity C. The writer’s first day of school D. The most popular boy in the school 【答案】51. B 52. D 53. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者开学第一天等待老师安排座位时，对当下受欢迎规则变化的思考，还提及班级里受欢迎的男孩情况以及自己和朋友对受欢迎的看法等内容。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It’s the first day of school and I’m waiting for the teacher to make the seating chart. I’m writing to pass the time.”可知，作者在书里写字是为了在等待老师安排座位时打发时间。故选B。 【52题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“I hear that he’s going to hospital to get his braces next week.”可知，我听说他下周要去医院戴牙套。所以“braces”的意思是“使牙齿变直的东西”。故选D。 【53题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章先是讲开学第一天等待安排座位，接着重点围绕当下受欢迎的规则变化展开，如小学时和现在受欢迎的标准不同等，所以本文主要讲的是受欢迎规则的变化。故选A。 D Huang Xuhua, main designer of China’s first-generation nuclear submarines (第一代核潜艇), died on the evening of Feb. 6th in Wuhan, Hubei Province. Born into a family of doctors in Guangdong Province in March 1926, Huang was the third child of his parents. After spending his boyhood in wartime, he joined Shanghai Jiao Tong University to study shipbuilding. During the years at the university, the young man studied hard and learned about the Communist Party. He joined the Communist Party of China in April 1949, just before he finished university. In 1958, Huang joined a team with a very important job—to design China’s first nuclear submarine. At that time, China had no basic conditions (基本条件) for this technology. The team knew little about it and found almost no books to learn from. They searched newspapers and magazines for information. “It was very difficult to find a little piece of information,” he said, “The information was either in many small pieces, or hard to tell if it was true.” After collecting all the information they found and carefully looking at two US submarine models, they made five different plans. The team members didn’t have any computers, so they used abacuses (算盘) and rulers to solve problems. To make sure their answers were right, they worked in three groups to do the same maths at the same time. The project even stopped for some years because the country had money problems, but they never gave up. After many years of hard work, China built its first nuclear submarine in 1970, making China the fifth country to have such technology. Huang’s name was kept secret until 1987. Because of his excellent work for the country, Huang received the Medal of the Republic, China’s highest honour (荣誉), in 2019. 54. How old was Huang Xuhua when he joined the research team of China’s first nuclear-powered submarine? A. 23. B. 32. C. 44. D. 61. 55. What can we infer from the fact that Huang’s name was kept secret until 1987? A. His work was very important and needed to be kept secret. B. He didn’t want people to know his name. C. There was no need to make his name public before 1987. D. He was afraid to be known by his friends. 56. How does the writer introduce Huang Xuhua’s life? A. By giving examples. B. By following the order of time. C. By listing numbers. D. By telling the differences between events. 57. What would be the best structure (结构) of the passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】54. B 55. A 56. B 57. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇人物传记，主要讲述了中国第一代核潜艇总设计师黄旭华的生平事迹与贡献。 【54题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Born into a family of doctors in Guangdong Province in March 1926... In 1958, Huang joined a team with a very important job—to design China’s first nuclear submarine.”可知，他出生于1926年，于1958年加入研发团队；因此，加入团队时的年龄为1958-1926=32岁。故选B。 【55题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Huang’s name was kept secret until 1987. Because of his excellent work for the country...”可知，因其工作的杰出贡献而获得最高荣誉，可以反向推知其工作本身具有极端重要性和保密需求。故选A。 【56题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章主体内容，从“Born... in March 1926”、“After spending his boyhood...”、“joined... in 1949”、“In 1958”、“in 1970”、“until 1987”、“in 2019”等时间标志词可知，作者是按照时间顺序介绍黄旭华的生平的。故选B。 【57题详解】 篇章结构题。文章第1段是总述黄旭华的基本信息，第2-4段分别讲述黄旭华不同时期的经历，第5段总结黄的基本成就；因此文章是“总分总”结构，选项D结构图符合。故选D。 第 II卷 主观题 (共50分) 五、词汇运用 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) (A)根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 58. Julia is a student in Grade 8. At first, she showed the ________ (最少的) interest in nature in her class. 【答案】least 【解析】 【详解】句意：Julia是八年级的一名学生。起初，她在班里对自然展现出的兴趣是最少的。“最少的”常见英文表达有least，用于不可数名词前，fewest用于可数名词前。interest是不可数名词。故填least。 59. One day, she read some articles about some great ________ (发明家) from a book. 【答案】inventors 【解析】 【详解】句意：有一天，她从一本书里读到了一些关于伟大发明家的文章。根据中文提示“发明家”可知，对应的英文单词是inventor，为可数名词；前面有some修饰，因此需要使用复数形式inventors，故填inventors。 60. Among them, a ________ (日本的) scientist’s story caught her eye. He loved nature deeply. 【答案】Japanese 【解析】 【详解】句意：在它们之中，一个日本科学家的故事吸引了她的注意。他深深地爱着大自然。根据句意和首字母以及括号内提示词可推断这里表示“日本的”，Japanese“日本的”，形容词修饰“scientist”。故填Japanese。 61. So she decided to start a project to ________ (提供) help to the ocean. 【答案】offer 【解析】 【详解】句意：所以她决定启动一个项目来为海洋提供帮助。根据“help to the ocean”及汉语提示可知，此处是offer sth. to sb.“把……提供给……”，空格前有动词不定式符号to，这里应用动词原形。故填offer。 62. Their group paid a lot of attention to ________ (减少) plastic pollution in oceans. 【答案】reducing 【解析】 【详解】句意：他们小组非常关注减少海洋中的塑料污染。此空需填“减少”对应的英文动词形式，且“pay attention to”中“to”是介词，后接动名词。“减少”的英文是“reduce”，动名词形式为“reducing”。故填reducing。 (B) 根据句意，写出括号内所给单词的适当形式。 63. Julia and her group cleaned beaches ________ (careful) and used new technology to collect ocean plastic. 【答案】carefully 【解析】 【详解】句意：Julia和她的团队仔细地清理海滩，使用新技术收集海洋塑料。空格处缺少副词修饰动词cleaned，careful“仔细的”，为形容词，其副词形式为carefully。故填carefully。 64. Sometimes the bad weather made the situation even ________ (bad), but they never gave up. 【答案】worse 【解析】 【详解】句意：有时恶劣的天气使情况变得更糟，但他们从未放弃。根据“even”可知，此处用bad的比较级形式worse，表示情况变得更糟糕。故填worse。 65. They always kept ________ (cheer) even when the work was very hard. 【答案】cheerful 【解析】 【详解】句意：即使工作非常辛苦，他们也总是保持愉快的心情。cheer“欢呼”，动词，根据“They always kept...even when the work was very hard.”可知，keep后接形容词，表“保持某种状态”，cheer的形容词为cheerful。故填cheerful。 66. All the group members believed that nothing is ________ (possible) if they put their hearts into it. 【答案】impossible 【解析】 【详解】句意：所有的小组成员都相信，如果他们全身心投入，没有什么是不可能的。possible“可能的”，根据“nothing is...if they put their heart into it”可知，全身心投入，没有什么是不可能的，impossible“不可能的”，形容词作表语。故填impossible。 67. Their work is still not complete now, but they believe in ________ (they). 【答案】themselves 【解析】 【详解】句意：他们的工作现在还没完成，但他们相信自己。they“他们”是人称代词主格。believe in oneself是固定搭配，意为“相信自己”，主语是they，对应的反身代词是themselves。故填themselves。 六、动词填空 用括号内所给动词的适当形式填空，并将答案写在答题卡对应题号的横线上。 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 68. Hi, I’m Simon. Our science team ________ (improve) the model for the Science Week these days. 【答案】are improving 【解析】 【详解】句意：嗨，我是西蒙。这些天我们的科学小组正在为科学周改进模型。improve“改进”是动词。由时间状语“these days”可知，句子表示最近一段时间正在进行的动作，应用现在进行时，其结构为be+现在分词；主语Our science team为集体名词，此处强调团队成员，视为复数，be动词用are，improve的现在分词为improving。故填are improving。 69. Yesterday, we ________ (pay) a high price for our carelessness when the model broke. 【答案】paid 【解析】 【详解】句意：昨天，当模型坏了的时候，我们为自己的粗心大意付出了高昂的代价。根据“Yesterday”可知句子时态用一般过去时，pay的过去式为paid，故填paid。 70. Then we learned from the mistake. ________ (record) all the steps correctly is very important for our report. 【答案】Recording 【解析】 【详解】句意：后来我们从这个错误中吸取了教训。正确记录所有步骤对我们的报告来说非常重要。分析句子结构可知，空格处需填动名词作主语；record的动名词形式是recording，且位于句首，首字母需大写，故填Recording。 71. Moreover, through the work, I finally ________ (understand) that we must work as a team to succeed. 【答案】understood 【解析】 【详解】句意：此外，通过这份工作，我终于明白我们必须团队合作才能成功。understand“明白”是动词。根据语境可知，这里描述的事情是过去发生的，所以要用一般过去时。understand的过去式为understood。故填understood。 72. When I didn’t know what to do, my partner ________ (feed) me some great ideas. He helped me a lot. 【答案】fed 【解析】 【详解】句意：当我不知道做什么的时候，我的伙伴给我提供了一些很棒的主意。他帮了我很多。feed“提供（想法、建议等）”，动词；根据“When I didn’t know what to do”可知，该句时态为一般过去时，动词要用过去式，feed的过去式为fed。故填fed。 73. So, never ________ (give) up on your partners, even when things go wrong. 【答案】give 【解析】 【详解】句意：所以，永远不要放弃你的伙伴，即使事情变得不顺利。本句为祈使句的否定形式，结构为“never+动词原形”，用来表达劝告或建议，故填give。 74. To work better with your teammates, you’d better ________ (not fight) over small problems; just talk it out. 【答案】not fight 【解析】 【详解】句意：为了更好地和队友合作，你最好不要为小问题吵架；好好沟通解决就好。根据“not fight”可知，此处表否定；had better not do sth.最好不要做某事，所以此处填动词原形；“you’d better not fight”表示“你最好不要吵架”，符合语境。故填not fight。 75. Now, not only the teacher but also all my teammates ________ (nod) in agreement with our new plan. 【答案】are nodding 【解析】 【详解】句意：现在，不仅老师，我的所有队友都在点头同意我们的新计划。“not only...but also...”连接并列主语时，谓语动词遵循“就近原则”，此处靠近谓语的主语“all my teammates”是复数，结合“Now”可知，句子用现在进行时（am/is/are+现在分词），此处应用be动词are，nod的现在分词是nodding。故填are nodding。 76. We will work harder ________ (provide) a better result for our teacher. I am sure we can do it. 【答案】to provide 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们将更努力地工作，为我们的老师提供一个更好的结果。我相信我们能做到。provide“提供”，动词；根据“We will work harder...a better result for our teacher.”可知，此处是指为我们的老师提供一个更好的结果，应用动词不定式表目的。故填to provide。 77. I believe we ________ (finish) everything perfectly if we work together. 【答案】will finish 【解析】 【详解】句意：我相信如果我们共同努力，我们会完美地完成一切。根据“we... everything perfectly if we work together”可知，本句是if引导的条件状语从句，时态上遵循“主将从现”原则，主句用一般将来时（will do），故填will finish。 七、阅读表达 (本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) Once a little weed (杂草) grew in a field. There were many tall and beautiful flowers around it. Lots of bees and butterflies came to them because of their nice smells and bright colours. The little weed wasn’t satisfied, because its flowers were tiny and simple. One spring morning, three children came to play in the field. “Let’s pick some flowers for our grandma!” said one. “That’s a good idea!” said another. “She will love all these bright and beautiful flowers!” “What about that one?” the youngest child said, pointing at the little weed. “Forget it!” laughed the oldest brother. “That’s just a useless weed!” Hearing this, the little weed felt even worse. “Am I really useless?” it asked itself, “Why was I put on the Earth?” In winter, all flowers were gone, only the little weed stood alone in the field. Just at that time, it noticed some birds coming above the field. “We are hungry!” they shouted. The little weed felt sorry for the poor birds and called out to them, “Hey! Down here! I have pods (豆荚) that you can eat!” “You’re so kind!” The birds ate up the seeds (种子) in the pods thankfully. “They’re delicious. We can’t find anything better than what you gave us!” This made the little weed pleased and confident. “At last, I have found out what I am good for!” the little weed said. 78.

C Tuesday, 1 September Cloudy It’s the first day of school and I’m waiting for the teacher to make the seating chart. I’m writing to pass the time. I think I have a plan for next lesson: I will try to sit near some popular girls. But I guess this plan might be a problem. Man, I don’t know what is wrong with girls these days. It used to be much simpler back in primary school. The deal was that if you were the fastest runner in your class, you got all the girls. And in the fifth grade, the fastest runner was Ronnie McCoy. These days, it’s a whole lot more complicated (复杂的). Now it’s about the kind of clothes you wear or how rich you are or if you have a cute butt (屁股) or whatever. And kids like Ronnie McCoy are scratching (抓) their heads and want to know what the matter was. The most popular boy in my grade is Bryce Anderson. The puzzle (迷惑) thing is that: I like the pretty girls all the time, but kids like Bryce have only come around in the last couple of years. I remember how Bryce used to act back in primary school. But of course now I don’t get any credit (身份) for keeping staying with the girls all this time. As I said, Bryce is the most popular kid in our grade, so that leaves all the other guys scrambling for the other spots. The best I can think of is that I’m somewhere around 52nd or 53rd most popular this year. But the good news is that I’m about to move up one spot because Charlie Davies is above me, I hear that he’s going to hospital to get his braces next week. I try to explain something about popularity to my friend Rowley (He is probably hovering (徘徊) right around the 150 mark, by the way), but I think it just goes in one ear and out the other with him. — Adapted from Diary of a Wimpy Kid 51.

What is the main idea of this diary? A. The changes about the rules of popularity B. Rowley’s idea about popularity C. The writer’s first day of school D. The most popular boy in the school D Huang Xuhua, main designer of China’s first-generation nuclear submarines (第一代核潜艇), died on the evening of Feb. 6th in Wuhan, Hubei Province. Born into a family of doctors in Guangdong Province in March 1926, Huang was the third child of his parents. After spending his boyhood in wartime, he joined Shanghai Jiao Tong University to study shipbuilding. During the years at the university, the young man studied hard and learned about the Communist Party. He joined the Communist Party of China in April 1949, just before he finished university. In 1958, Huang joined a team with a very important job—to design China’s first nuclear submarine. At that time, China had no basic conditions (基本条件) for this technology. The team knew little about it and found almost no books to learn from. They searched newspapers and magazines for information. “It was very difficult to find a little piece of information,” he said, “The information was either in many small pieces, or hard to tell if it was true.” After collecting all the information they found and carefully looking at two US submarine models, they made five different plans. The team members didn’t have any computers, so they used abacuses (算盘) and rulers to solve problems. To make sure their answers were right, they worked in three groups to do the same maths at the same time. The project even stopped for some years because the country had money problems, but they never gave up. After many years of hard work, China built its first nuclear submarine in 1970, making China the fifth country to have such technology. Huang’s name was kept secret until 1987. Because of his excellent work for the country, Huang received the Medal of the Republic, China’s highest honour (荣誉), in 2019. 54. How old was Huang Xuhua when he joined the research team of China’s first nuclear-powered submarine? A. 23. B. 32. C. 44. D. 61. 55. What can we infer from the fact that Huang’s name was kept secret until 1987? A. His work was very important and needed to be kept secret. B. He didn’t want people to know his name. C. There was no need to make his name public before 1987. D. He was afraid to be known by his friends. 56. How does the writer introduce Huang Xuhua’s life? A. By giving examples. B. By following the order of time. C. By listing numbers. D. By telling the differences between events. 57. What would be the best structure (结构) of the passage? A. B. C.

There were many tall and beautiful flowers around it. Lots of bees and butterflies came to them because of their nice smells and bright colours. The little weed wasn’t satisfied, because its flowers were tiny and simple. One spring morning, three children came to play in the field. “Let’s pick some flowers for our grandma!” said one. “That’s a good idea!” said another. “She will love all these bright and beautiful flowers!” “What about that one?” the youngest child said, pointing at the little weed. “Forget it!” laughed the oldest brother. “That’s just a useless weed!” Hearing this, the little weed felt even worse. “Am I really useless?” it asked itself, “Why was I put on the Earth?” In winter, all flowers were gone, only the little weed stood alone in the field. Just at that time, it noticed some birds coming above the field. “We are hungry!” they shouted. The little weed felt sorry for the poor birds and called out to them, “Hey! Down here! I have pods (豆荚) that you can eat!” “You’re so kind!” The birds ate up the seeds (种子) in the pods thankfully. “They’re delicious. We can’t find anything better than what you gave us!” This made the little weed pleased and confident. “At last, I have found out what I am good for!” the little weed said. 78.
