Red sky in the morning, sailors (水手) take warning.” Is the saying true? It turns out that it is. A red sky at sunset may mean that there are clear skies to the west, where the sun sets. A red sky at sunrise usually means that the clear weather has already passed, so storms might be coming. Forecasting the weather has been practiced for thousands of years. In the 5th century BC, the Greeks sent out forecasts to sailors. They used signs in nature to forecast the weather. But today, meteorologists (气象学者) send exact forecasts further in advance (提前). They use scientific instruments to study weather conditions around the world and make forecasts. Pilots, farmers and many other people depend on these forecasts. Luckily, most of us can simply look at the smartphone or turn on the TV to find out what kind of weather is coming. If you are looking for some signs of the weather, pay attention to nature. There are two basic rules used in weather forecasting: Weather generally moves from west to east, and low air pressure (压力) usually means rain or snow. So pay attention to the signs. If rainbows form in the west at sunrise, the sun is on the way. Smell the flowers—their smell is stronger in wet air. What are the ants doing? Are they moving to higher ground? This could mean a drop in air pressure. Are the birds flying low or high? Falling air pressure may influence birds’ ears, so they fly low. And if the sky is red at sunset, you might plan a picnic for the next day! 36. What is the old saying about? A. The beauty of sunrise. B. The night sky. C. The signs of the weather. D. The sailors’ work. 37. What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. The Greeks. B. The forecasts. C. The sailors. D. The meteorologists. 38. How does the writer develop his idea in Paragraph 2? A. By listing the reasons for terrible weather. B. By telling a true story about weather forecasting. C. By introducing different ways of forecasting the weather. D. By mentioning the difficulties in forecasting the weather. 39. What do we know from the last paragraph? A. It’ll be sunny if ants move to higher places. B. The smells of flowers are stronger in wet air. C. Birds fly higher because of the low air pressure. D. It’ll rain if rainbows form in the west at sunrise. 40. What is the writer’s purpose in writing the text? A. To encourage people to get close to nature. B. To express the need for weather forecasting. C. To explain nature can tell us about the weather. D. To discuss how important weather forecasting is. 【答案】36. C 37. A 38. C 39. B 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一句关于天气预测的古老谚语，并说明了天气预测的历史、现代预测方法以及一些自然界的天气迹象。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“An old saying used for forecasting the weather says...”可知，这句古老的谚语是关于天气迹象的。故选C。 【37题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“In the 5th century BC, the Greeks sent out forecasts to sailors. They used signs in nature to forecast the weather.”可知，在公元前 5 世纪，希腊人向水手发布天气预报，他们利用自然界的迹象来预测天气；据此可以推断，划线单词“They”指代前句的“the Greeks”。故选A。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Forecasting the weather has been practiced for thousands of years...They use scientific instruments to study weather conditions around the world and make forecasts.”可知，第二段先介绍了古希腊人用自然迹象预测天气，接着介绍了现代气象学者用科学仪器预测天气，所以第二段是通过介绍不同的天气预测方法来展开的。故选C。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Smell the flowers—their smell is stronger in wet air.”可知，花的香味在潮湿的空气中更强烈。故选B。 【40题详解】 主旨大意题。本文从天气谚语的科学原理，到通过自然现象 (如蚂蚁、彩虹、花香、鸟类飞行等) 判断天气的方法，核心是说明自然能为我们提供天气信息。故选C。 D A sense of humor(幽默) can bring happiness to family life, since laughing together is a way to connect. And a good sense of humor also can make kids cleverer, healthier, and better able to deal with difficulties, because a good sense of humor is not just about telling jokes, but about the response(反应) to things in a creative and funny way. It means you can see things from different sides and in different ways. Most of us may think humor is like our black hair or big feet. We have it since we are born. But a sense of humor is a completely learned quality that can be developed in kids, not something they’ re born with. How to develop it? Kids especially young kids may not understand what humor is, but you can do something funny to make them laugh. For example, you can put on a stupid hat and run after a 3-year-old boy. As kids grow up, you can share some jokes as their sense of what’s funny grows better. Kids with a well-developed sense of humor are happier. They can deal with difficulties well. Kids who can enjoy and share humor are better liked by their friends and more able to go through hard times in childhood— from moving to a new town to going to a new school. A good sense of humor is a skill that kids can use in their whole life to help them enjoy the funny parts of life, and not take themselves too seriously. 41. How can humor affect kids? A. It can make them clever, healthy and funny. B. It can make them happy, funny and thankful. C. It can make them funny, but stupid and careless. D. It can make them creative, funny but careless. 42. How can a sense of humor come into being according to Paragraph 2? A. It can be born with a person. B. It can be developed in kids. C. It can be grown with hair. D. It can be learned at any time. 43. Which of the following statements about kids with a sense of humor is Right? A. They take themselves too seriously. B. They can get used to a new school soon. C. They like moving from one place to another. D. They want to be different from their friends. 44. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? A. ①/②/③④ B. ①②/③/④ C. ①/②③/④ D. ①②/③④ 45. What is the best title for the text? A. The Development of Humor B. The Effect of Humor C. Humor for Kid’s Creation D. Humor for Kid’s Study 【答案】41. A 42. B 43. B 44. C 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文说明了幽默感对孩子发展的积极影响，以及如何在孩子中培养幽默感。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据“a good sense of humor also can make kids cleverer, healthier, and better able to deal with difficulties”可知，幽默感可以让孩子更聪明、更健康、处理困难的能力更强。故选A。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“a sense of humor is a completely learned quality that can be developed in kids”可知，幽默感是一种可以在孩子中培养的品质。故选B。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“Kids with a well-developed sense of humor are happier. They can deal with difficulties well.”及“They can enjoy and share humor are better liked by their friends and more able to go through hard times in childhood.”可知，具有幽默感的孩子比较容易适应环境，比如适应新学校。故选B。 【44题详解】 篇章结构题。本文第一段引出幽默感的重要性；第二段第三段说明幽默感可以培养，阐述拥有幽默感的孩子的优势；结尾总结幽默感对孩子生活的积极影响。结构为①/②③/④。故选C。 【45题详解】 最佳标题题。本文主要讨论了幽默对孩子的影响以及如何培养幽默感，以及幽默感对孩子生活的积极影响。因此最佳标题为“幽默的作用”。故选B。 第二节 阅读下面短文，从短文后面所给的五个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，意思完整。（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） E Nowadays, many people have realized the importance of leadership( 领导) skills.

He had been sitting in the room for a whole day, and now it was time for him to do something. Robbie looked out of the window. It was still snowing heavily and there was ice on the window. It was another cold day. Robbie was told to turn the heat on before the family got home. And he did it. Then Robbie was told to do some cleaning work at once. It was an easy job for him, but a tough one for his master, Helen. He kept on working until every room was clean and tidy. For now, he had to cook supper for the family. The first thing Robbie did was to get the big pot(锅) in the kitchen. Then he put some water in the pot and put it on the stove. He used one of his hands to cut up a chicken and added the pieces to the water to make a good soup. Then he got some tomatoes, cabbages and carrots to make a vegetable salad. At ten past eight he laid the table. Then he put some bread, the chicken soup and the salad on it. What a sweet smell! The moment he turned on the lights, the whole family came home. “The soup smells great, Victor,” said Helen. “You really know how to tell Robbie what to do.” Robbie is one robot that really saves the family a lot of work. 31.

Victor and Helen felt comfortable when they got home. C An old saying used for forecasting (预测) the weather says, “Red sky at night, sailors’ delight. Red sky in the morning, sailors (水手) take warning.” Is the saying true? It turns out that it is. A red sky at sunset may mean that there are clear skies to the west, where the sun sets. A red sky at sunrise usually means that the clear weather has already passed, so storms might be coming. Forecasting the weather has been practiced for thousands of years. In the 5th century BC, the Greeks sent out forecasts to sailors. They used signs in nature to forecast the weather. But today, meteorologists (气象学者) send exact forecasts further in advance (提前). They use scientific instruments to study weather conditions around the world and make forecasts. Pilots, farmers and many other people depend on these forecasts. Luckily, most of us can simply look at the smartphone or turn on the TV to find out what kind of weather is coming. If you are looking for some signs of the weather, pay attention to nature. There are two basic rules used in weather forecasting: Weather generally moves from west to east, and low air pressure (压力) usually means rain or snow. So pay attention to the signs. If rainbows form in the west at sunrise, the sun is on the way. Smell the flowers—their smell is stronger in wet air. What are the ants doing? Are they moving to higher ground? This could mean a drop in air pressure. Are the birds flying low or high? Falling air pressure may influence birds’ ears, so they fly low. And if the sky is red at sunset, you might plan a picnic for the next day! 36. What is the old saying about? A. The beauty of sunrise. B. The night sky. C. The signs of the weather. D. The sailors’ work. 37. What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. The Greeks. B. The forecasts. C. The sailors. D. The meteorologists. 38. How does the writer develop his idea in Paragraph 2? A. By listing the reasons for terrible weather. B. By telling a true story about weather forecasting. C. By introducing different ways of forecasting the weather. D. By mentioning the difficulties in forecasting the weather. 39. What do we know from the last paragraph? A. It’ll be sunny if ants move to higher places. B. The smells of flowers are stronger in wet air. C. Birds fly higher because of the low air pressure. D. It’ll rain if rainbows form in the west at sunrise. 40. What is the writer’s purpose in writing the text? A. To encourage people to get close to nature. B. To express the need for weather forecasting. C. To explain nature can tell us about the weather. D. To discuss how important weather forecasting is. D A sense of humor(幽默) can bring happiness to family life, since laughing together is a way to connect. And a good sense of humor also can make kids cleverer, healthier, and better able to deal with difficulties, because a good sense of humor is not just about telling jokes, but about the response(反应) to things in a creative and funny way. It means you can see things from different sides and in different ways. Most of us may think humor is like our black hair or big feet. We have it since we are born. But a sense of humor is a completely learned quality that can be developed in kids, not something they’ re born with. How to develop it? Kids, especially young kids may not understand what humor is, but you can do something funny to make them laugh. For example, you can put on a stupid hat and run after a 3-year-old boy. As kids grow up, you can share some jokes as their sense of what’s funny grows better. Kids with a well-developed sense of humor are happier. They can deal with difficulties well. Kids who can enjoy and share humor are better liked by their friends and more able to go through hard times in childhood— from moving to a new town to going to a new school. A good sense of humor is a skill that kids can use in their whole life to help them enjoy the funny parts of life, and not take themselves too seriously. 41. How can humor affect kids? A. It can make them clever, healthy and funny. B. It can make them happy, funny and thankful. C. It can make them funny, but stupid and careless. D. It can make them creative, funny but careless. 42 How can a sense of humor come into being according to Paragraph 2? A. It can be born with a person. B. It can be developed in kids. C It can be grown with hair. D. It can be learned at any time. 43. Which of the following statements about kids with a sense of humor is Right? A. They take themselves too seriously. B. They can get used to a new school soon. C. They like moving from one place to another. D. They want to be different from their friends. 44. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? A. ①/②/③④ B. ①②/③/④ C. ①/②③/④ D. ①②/③④ 45. What is the best title for the text? A. The Development of Humor B. The Effect of Humor C. Humor for Kid’s Creation D. Humor for Kid’s Study 第二节 阅读下面短文，从短文后面所给的五个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，意思完整。（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） E Nowadays, many people have realized the importance of leadership( 领导) skills.
