When most travelers think of Dunhuang in Gansu Province, they will choose Mogao Grottoes to travel first. But this time, I decided to go to the Gobi Desert. It wasn’t a common trip—it let me explore the history and beautiful scenery of Western China.
Our journey started with a drive from Dunhuang. The city roads soon turned into the wide, open Gobi Desert. After two hours’ driving to the northwest, I reached Yumen Pass, a relic (遗迹) on the ancient Silk Road. Standing here, you can really feel the weight of history. I even thought of the famous poet Wang Zhihuan’s line: “Why must the Qiang flute bemoan the willow? The spring wind does not reach Yumen Pass.”
After that, I drove northwest to the ruins of Hecang City. It is an ancient city from Western Han Dynasty. As the sun went down, warm light covered the yellow sand and old walls. It looked just like a living painting. I couldn’t help wondering what life was like here 1,000 years ago.
When the sunlight faded (减弱), I went northwest to Yadan National Park. I’ve watched stars from mountains and other deserts before, but nothing was as amazing as the “Devil City” in the Gobi.
As night came, stars filled the sky. Unlike my hometown, the stars here shone brightly, and the desert was so quiet. For the first time in my life, I wished time would stop. I wanted to lose myself in this peace, far away from the noisy city.
39. Which place in Gansu Province may be the first choice of most travelers?
A. Mogao Grottoes. B. Gobi Desert.
C. Yumen Pass. D. The ruins of Hecang City.
40. What is the Chinese for the underlined sentences in paragraph 2?
A. 长风几万里,吹度玉门关。 B. 愿得此身长报国,何须生入玉门关。
C. 羌笛何须怨杨柳,春风不度玉门关。 D. 青海长云暗雪山,孤城遥望玉门关。
41. Which map is about the writer’s trip?
A. B.
C. D.
42. Which is the possible title for this passage?
A. A Wonderful Trip in Yumen Pass. B. A Historical and Natural Trip.
C. A Cultural Trip in Eastern China. D. A Trip to See the Desert Stars.

Who is the greatest teacher in Chinese history? Many people would think of Confucius (孔子), whose birthday was September 28. Although he lived over 2,000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution (贡献) to the education today. Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which lies in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3. His mother brought him up. As a child, he had to work to help his mother, but young Confucius didn’t give up studying. He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports.
Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history. At that time only children from noble families could go to school, but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime.
Today, people still follow Confucius’ lessons. He told us we should learn from others. “When I am with three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I choose their good qualities and follow them.”
He also taught us that thinking is very important in study. “All study but no thinking makes people puzzled (困惑的). All thinking but no study makes people lazy.”
Confucius is not only a great teacher, but also a famous thinker with wise thoughts about the world. His most important teachings are about kindness and good manners. “A person should be strict with himself, but be kind to others.” he said.
46. Today we still remember Confucius mainly because ________.
A. He lived a poor life in his childhood

D. He had wise thoughts and great views about education

Do-it-yourself projects let you design your house, offer a way to save money, but even with step-by-step instructions, DIYs don’t always go to plan, nearly 80% of homeowners make a mistake while DIY. Here are four of the biggest mistakes that homeowners often make.
Taking on Too Much
More than 40% of people find DIY projects more difficult and expensive than they thought. By taking on a task that needs more time or skills than you have, you may end up with a big mess and an unfinished project. “It’s important to think about why you want to DIY and what you’re hoping to get out of it” said Bailey Carson, a home care expert. “If you’re doing it just to save money, you might need to think twice. Without the time, tools, and talent to do it correctly and safely, mistakes may cost you more in the long run than simply paying others to help from the beginning.”
▲
A third of people used the wrong tools for a DIY project, which can make the job more difficult and less safe. Many tools are designed for special uses and materials, so if you use them for other tasks, you may get hurt. Always use the proper tools for each project, and make sure you know how to use them.
Not Safety First
DIY mistakes can not only be costly but also dangerous. Of the surveyed people who once made a big mistake during their DIY projects, 47% said that the mistake led to serious problems, while 44% started a fire or fell off a roof or ladder. Take your time and follow all safety rules when using tools. Wear dust masks, safety glasses, hearing protection or gloves to protect yourself.
Skipping Important Steps
Skipping a key step can end up your whole DIY project-and you might not realize it until much later. In the survey, 47% of people said that they had finished a DIY project before realizing it was done wrong. Read all instructions carefully ahead of time, and make sure you have the necessary skills to complete each step before you begin.
50. According to Paragraph 2, people who ________ are suitable for DIY.
A. want to save money B. want to save time
C. are skillful enough D. are careful enough
51. Which of the following should be put in the blank (横线)?
A. Using the wrong tools B. Using the special tools
C. Using the expensive tools D. Using the proper tools
52. Why did the writer write this passage?
A. To tell us DIY is very dangerous
B. To show DIY can help us save money
C. To tell us the importance of DIY
D. To help us keep away from DIY mistakes
F

1. —Mr. Smith told me my ________ of “textbook” is wrong. Could you help me practise it?
—Of course. Let’s read it together.
A. instruction B. attention C. suggestion D. pronunciation
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——史密斯先生说我“textbook”的发音错了。你能帮我练习一下吗?——当然可以。我们一起读吧。
考查名词辨析。instruction指示;attention注意;suggestion建议;pronunciation发音。根据“my...of ‘textbook’ is wrong”以及下文“help me practise it”和“Let’s read it together”可知,此处指单词“textbook”的发音错了,需要练习读它。故选D。
2. The local community center always tries to ________ free books and study spaces for children on weekends.
A. produce B. protect C. provide D. predict
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:当地社区中心总是努力在周末为孩子们提供免费的书籍和学习空间。
考查动词辨析。produce生产;protect保护;provide提供;predict预测。根据“tries to...free books and study spaces for children”可知,社区中心旨在提供资源,provide sth for sb表示“为某人提供某物”。故选C。
3. The word “impolite” should be put in ________.
How to form new words
Suffixes: (1) e.g. careful, cloudy, A
Suffixes: (2) e.g. Canadian, Japanese, B

Prefixes: (2) e.g. incorrect, unlucky, D
A. A B. B C. C D. D
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:单词“impolite”应该放在D处。
考查构词法知识。“impolite”由前缀“im-”(表否定表示否定含义)和词根“polite”构成,意为“不礼貌的”。Prefixes: (2)中的例子“incorrect”和“unlucky”也使用否定前缀(in-和un-),表示否定含义,因此“impolite”应归入此类。故选D。
4. —Jane, is the art museum open tomorrow?
—I’m not sure. It ________ be open on Monday. Let’s check the website.
A. may not B. shouldn’t C. can’t D. mustn’t

考查情态动词的用法。may not可能不;shouldn’t不应该;can’t不能;mustn’t禁止。根据“I’m not sure”可知,此处表示不确定,有可能周一不开放。表示不确定的推测用may not。故选A。

And和;Before在……之前;Although虽然;However然而。前后两句存在转折关系,空格后是逗号,因此用However。故选D。
【13题详解】
句意:她没有求助他人,而是通过做几份小工作攒钱来实现梦想。
reach for伸手去拿,引申为“追求/实现”;fight against对抗;give up放弃;pick up捡起,学会。根据前文“她梦想在非洲与动物工作”及“攒钱”的行为,可知她的目的是“实现梦想”。“reach for her dream”为地道表达,意为“追求并实现梦想”。故选A。

popular流行的;connected连接的;familiar熟悉的;full充满的。根据上下文,她此后的一生都与黑猩猩密不可分。故选B。

句意:古道尔与野生黑猩猩群体亲密地生活在一起,以了解它们的社群生活。
closely紧密地,亲近地;lonely孤独地;regularly规律地;probably可能地。 根据目的“了解它们的社群生活”,她需要“近距离地、亲密地”观察。“live closely with”意为“与……亲密地生活在一起”,符合研究情境。故选A。

less surprised更不惊讶的(修饰人);more surprised更惊讶的(修饰人);less surprising更不令人惊讶的(修饰物);more surprising更令人惊讶的(修饰物)。 空格处修饰的是“something (某事)”,应用形容词“surprising”。根据前文“发现黑猩猩吃肉”已是突破,而“制造使用工具”的发现程度更深,故用比较级“more surprising”。故选D。
【19题详解】
句意:除了做研究,古道尔还周游世界为动物发声。
Without没有;Except除了(不包括);Besides除了……还(包括);About关于。 根据句意,“做研究”和“周游世界演讲”是她在做的两件事,属于并列包括关系。故选C。

When most travelers think of Dunhuang in Gansu Province, they will choose Mogao Grottoes to travel first. But this time, I decided to go to the Gobi Desert. It wasn’t a common trip—it let me explore the history and beautiful scenery of Western China.
Our journey started with a drive from Dunhuang. The city roads soon turned into the wide, open Gobi Desert. After two hours’ driving to the northwest, I reached Yumen Pass, a relic (遗迹) on the ancient Silk Road. Standing here, you can really feel the weight of history. I even thought of the famous poet Wang Zhihuan’s line: “Why must the Qiang flute bemoan the willow? The spring wind does not reach Yumen Pass.”
After that, I drove northwest to the ruins of Hecang City. It is an ancient city from Western Han Dynasty. As the sun went down, warm light covered the yellow sand and old walls. It looked just like a living painting. I couldn’t help wondering what life was like here 1,000 years ago.
When the sunlight faded (减弱), I went northwest to Yadan National Park. I’ve watched stars from mountains and other deserts before, but nothing was as amazing as the “Devil City” in the Gobi.
As night came, stars filled the sky. Unlike my hometown, the stars here shone brightly, and the desert was so quiet. For the first time in my life, I wished time would stop. I wanted to lose myself in this peace, far away from the noisy city.
39. Which place in Gansu Province may be the first choice of most travelers?
A. Mogao Grottoes. B. Gobi Desert.
C. Yumen Pass. D. The ruins of Hecang City.
40. What is the Chinese for the underlined sentences in paragraph 2?
A. 长风几万里,吹度玉门关。 B. 愿得此身长报国,何须生入玉门关。
C. 羌笛何须怨杨柳,春风不度玉门关。 D. 青海长云暗雪山,孤城遥望玉门关。

Who is the greatest teacher in Chinese history? Many people would think of Confucius (孔子), whose birthday was September 28. Although he lived over 2,000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution (贡献) to the education today. Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which lies in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3. His mother brought him up. As a child, he had to work to help his mother, but young Confucius didn’t give up studying. He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports.
Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history. At that time only children from noble families could go to school, but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime.
Today, people still follow Confucius’ lessons. He told us we should learn from others. “When I am with three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I choose their good qualities and follow them.”
He also taught us that thinking is very important in study. “All study but no thinking makes people puzzled (困惑的). All thinking but no study makes people lazy.”
Confucius is not only a great teacher, but also a famous thinker with wise thoughts about the world. His most important teachings are about kindness and good manners. “A person should be strict with himself, but be kind to others.” he said.
46. Today we still remember Confucius mainly because ________.
A. He lived a poor life in his childhood

Do-it-yourself projects let you design your house, offer a way to save money, but even with step-by-step instructions, DIYs don’t always go to plan, nearly 80% of homeowners make a mistake while DIY. Here are four of the biggest mistakes that homeowners often make.
Taking on Too Much
More than 40% of people find DIY projects more difficult and expensive than they thought. By taking on a task that needs more time or skills than you have, you may end up with a big mess and an unfinished project. “It’s important to think about why you want to DIY and what you’re hoping to get out of it” said Bailey Carson, a home care expert. “If you’re doing it just to save money, you might need to think twice. Without the time, tools, and talent to do it correctly and safely, mistakes may cost you more in the long run than simply paying others to help from the beginning.”

A third of people used the wrong tools for a DIY project which can make the job more difficult and less safe. Many tools are designed for special uses and materials, so if you use them for other tasks, you may get hurt. Always use the proper tools for each project, and make sure you know how to use them.
Not Safety First
DIY mistakes can not only be costly but also dangerous. Of the surveyed people who once made a big mistake during their DIY projects, 47% said that the mistake led to serious problems, while 44% started a fire or fell off a roof or ladder. Take your time and follow all safety rules when using tools. Wear dust masks, safety glasses, hearing protection or gloves to protect yourself.
Skipping Important Steps
Skipping a key step can end up your whole DIY project-and you might not realize it until much later. In the survey, 47% of people said that they had finished a DIY project before realizing it was done wrong. Read all instructions carefully ahead of time, and make sure you have the necessary skills to complete each step before you begin.

【答案】参考范文
Ladies and gentlemen! I am Lucas. It is a great honor for me to be here and present my ideas on why I am suitable to be a member of the Happy English Club.
I’m 14 years old. I’m outgoing and love making friends. My hobby is watching English cartoons.
For learning English, I have two useful methods. First, I listen to English songs every day. This helps me remember new words easily—for example, I learned “wonderful” from a pop song. Second, I talk with my deskmate in English during breaks. Last week, we practiced ordering food and mastered many daily phrases.
For the club, I have a piece of advice. We can hold a “Story Sharing Day” every month. It will let everyone practice speaking and learn from each other.
So much for my speech, thanks for your listening!
