At the same time, a global (全球的) meeting on climate change was held in Glasgow, Scotland. There, leaders from around the world tried to deal with global warming. Why are we having such a cold winter on a warming planet? In fact, the cold winter and global warming are not contradictory. Global warming does not happen evenly (均衡地) on earth, and it leads to more extreme (极端的) heat and cold. Because of the warming climate, China has seen a growing temperature in winter. It has risen by 0.41℃every 10 years since 1961. But in some cases, the country has also seen extreme cold—for example, the icy weather in early 2008. Global warming has changed the earth’s air circulation (循环), affecting the local weather through sea-air or land-air interaction. For example, in October, La Niña affected China. It was caused by strong winds above the Pacific Ocean. It brought more cold air to China. Another reason for the cold weather is the warming Arctic, according to BBC. It is warming almost three times as fast as any other place on earth. The polar vortex (极地涡旋)—a rotating (旋转的) pool of cold air—becomes active as the temperature rises there. So lots of cold Arctic air then goes southward. Will this winter be much colder? The official forecast said a cold winter is possible. Northern China may see more snow than usual, and Southern China, less rainfall than usual. 19. What does the underlined sentence mean? A. We may have cold winter under global warming. B. Global warming doesn’t happen in cold winter. C. The cold winter leads to global warming. D. The cold winter has nothing to do with global warming 20. The icy weather in early 2008 may show that global warming ________. A. doesn’t happen everywhere B. is not as serious as we thought C. can cause more heat and rain D. can also lead to more cold 21. When La Niña happened, China ________. A. had a rise in temperature B. went through extreme floods C. was much colder than usual D. had a hotter summer than usual 22. The cold weather in October in China was affected by cold air from ________. A. ab B. ac C. bc D. bd 【答案】19. A 20. D 21. C 22. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要探讨了在全球变暖的背景下，中国北方为何仍会出现强降雪和寒冷天气，解释了全球变暖导致极端天气（包括极寒）增多的科学原理。 【19题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Why are we having such a cold winter on a warming planet? In fact, the cold winter and global warming are not contradictory.”以及后文解释可知，全球变暖与出现寒冷冬季并不矛盾。“are not contradictory”在这里表示“不矛盾”的意思，即全球变暖下仍可能出现寒冷冬天。故选A。 【20题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Global warming does not happen evenly on earth, and it leads to more extreme heat and cold.”以及第三段举例“But in some cases, the country has also seen extreme cold—for example, the icy weather in early 2008.”可知，2008年的极寒天气例证了全球变暖也会导致更多极端寒冷事件。故选D。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“for example, in October, La Niña affected China...It brought more cold air to China.”可知，拉尼娜现象给中国带来了更多冷空气，使天气比往常更冷。故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段，中国10月的寒冷天气受到两个因素影响：一是“La Niña...brought more cold air to China”（对应b），二是“the warming Arctic...So lots of cold Arctic air then goes southward.”（对应a）。故受a和b共同影响。故选A。 C Dan meets Kevin in the village hall and he mistakes Kevin for’Nemesis’, a bully who often does something nasty (恶毒的) to kids. After chatting, they think they should do something. Dan and Kevin go behind the curtain and sit on the floor against the wall. Dylan lies down next to them and closes his eyes.

First, you need to know a little about the water cycle. The water cycle starts when the sun heats ocean water. The sun converts, or changes, the water into water vapor (蒸气). The sun and wind cause the water vapor to rise into the air. Water vapor cools off in the atmosphere (大气层), or the air that surrounds Earth. Then it changes to drops of water. The drops then cluster, or hold together, forming a cloud. The water in the cloud falls as rain or snow. It may fall back into the ocean, or it may fall on land. If it falls on land, it finally works its way back to the ocean as a water overflow called runoff. As you begin your experiment, remember this amazing fact. The amount of water on Earth now is the same as it was in the past and will be in the future. About 71% of Earth’s surface is water. This includes not only the water in oceans, rivers, and lakes. It also includes the water in clouds, rain, snow, and groundwater and in the icy areas at the North and South Poles. Now make a model of the water cycle with a partner or small group. Use the instructions below: ●Fill cup about halfway with water. ●Add red food color to the water and stir. ●Use the marker to show water level. ●Put the cup in the bag and sea lit. ●Put the bag in a sunny window. After you finish making the water cycle model, watch carefully what happens to the water in the cup. Check the mark showing the water level. You should see that the water level becomes gradually lower. You should also begin to see small drops of water on the sides and bottom of the bag. The water is evaporating (蒸发) from the heat and then changing from the gas created by evaporating to water drops on the sides of the bag. The drops rundown the sides and will begin to collect at the bottom. This is what happens when the sun heats the ocean. Water vapor rises and forms clouds. The drops running down the sides of the bag are like rain filling on Earth. 26. In which part does “runoff” appear in the picture? A. A B. B C. C D. D 27. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Earth’s surface. B. The water on Earth. C. Your experiment. D. This amazing fact. 28. How does the writer introduce the way of making the water cycle model? A. By showing the steps in order. B. By explaining cause and effect. C. By comparing and contrasting. D. By providing the examples in detail. 29. What can we learn from the experiment? A. Successful experiments need a lot of time and hard work. B. Simple experiments can also help understand science well. C. Students do the experiment in order to show their team spirit. D. Students know the amount of water on Earth from the experiment. 30. From which is the passage most probably taken? A. A storybook. B. A book review. C. A science magazine. D. A tourist guide. 【答案】26. D 27. B 28. A 29. B 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要是介绍水循环的科普知识，并提供了详细的实验步骤。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据“If it falls on land, it finally works its way back to the ocean as a water overflow called runoff.”可知，如果它落在陆地上，它最终会以一种叫做径流的水溢出的方式返回海洋。所以“runoff”指的是雨水落到陆地上后最终流回海洋的过程。在图示中，D所示的箭头表示地表径流（即从陆地流回海洋）。故选D。 【27题详解】 代词指代题。根据“The amount of water on Earth now is the same as it was in the past and will be in the future. About 71% of Earth’s surface is water. This includes not only the water in oceans, rivers, and lakes.”可知，现在地球上的水量与过去一样，未来也将如此。大约71%的地球表面是水。这不仅包括海洋、河流和湖泊中的水。此处This指的是“地球上的水”，故选B。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。文中用“●”分条罗列了做实验的步骤，按照顺序一步步介绍如何制作一个水循环模型，故选A。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。通过这个简单的 “杯子+塑料袋” 实验就能观察到蒸发、凝结和降水等水循环现象，说明简单的实验也能帮助我们更好地理解科学，故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。本文主要是介绍水循环的科普知识，并提供了详细的实验步骤，最可能出自科普类的科学杂志，故选C。 四、词汇运用(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 31. Students are not allowed to use smartphones at school if they don’t have ________ (紧急情况). 【答案】emergencies 【解析】 【详解】句意：若无紧急情况，学生不得在校内使用智能手机。emergency“紧急情况”，用复数形式emergencies，表示泛指。故填emergencies。 32.

Jessica placed pretty ________ (罩子) over her sofas to protect them from dust. 【答案】covers 【解析】 【详解】句意：杰西卡在沙发上盖上漂亮罩子以防灰尘。cover“罩子”，可数名词，由“sofas”可知，此处不止一个罩子，所以用名词复数形式。故填covers。 34. Caroline missed the train due to the bad weather. ________ (因此), she was late for the meeting. 【答案】Therefore 【解析】 【详解】句意：由于天气不好，Caroline没赶上火车。因此，她开会迟到了。根据汉语提示“因此”及空后的逗号可知，此处用therefore表示“因此”，副词。句首单词首字母大写。故填Therefore。 35. In the social ________ (情况), personal space is important. People usually don’t stand too close to others. 【答案】situation 【解析】 【详解】句意：在社交场合，个人空间很重要。人们通常不会站得离别人太近。“情况”situation，social situation“社交场合”，固定短语。故填situation。 36.

The bell for class is ringing! Be quick! All your class ________ (wait) outside. 【答案】are waiting 【解析】 【详解】句意：上课铃响了！快点！你们全班同学都在外面等着呢。根据“The bell for class is ringing! Be quick!”可知，此处强调动词正在进行，所以用现在进行时，主语是All your class（全班同学）为集合名词，指“全班同学全体”，强调复数含义，所以be动词用are，后跟现在分词waiting。故填are waiting。 43. —Mom, it’s freezing outside! —Put on the down jacket.

Many careless mistakes he made in the test ________ (lead) to the failure the other day. 【答案】led 【解析】 【详解】句意：前几天，他在考试中犯的许多粗心错误导致了不及格。句中“the other day”是过去时间标志词，意为“前几天”，所以时态为一般过去时，lead的过去式为led。故填led。 46. As Tommy ________ (feed) the dog, there is a knock at the door. 【答案】is feeding 【解析】 【详解】句意：当Tommy正在喂狗时，有人敲门了。根据“As Tommy…the dog, there is a knock at the door.”可知，现在有人敲门，此时Tommy“正在”喂狗，所以用现在进行时，结构为be+动词现在分词，主语是Tommy，be动词使用is。故填 is feeding。 47. Tom didn’t join in the football match yesterday afternoon. He told me his back ________ (ache) the whole morning. 【答案】ached 【解析】 【详解】句意：Tom昨天下午没有参加足球赛。他告诉我他的背整个上午都在疼。 主句“He told me”是一般过去时，根据时态一致性原则，宾语从句也要使用一般过去时。 时间状语“the whole morning”表示过去的状态，动词ache的过去式为ached，故填ached。 48. Everyone except the twins ________ (not be) able to solve the problem easily. 【答案】isn’t##is not 【解析】 【详解】句意：除了那对双胞胎，每个人都不能轻易地解决这个问题。“Everyone”是不定代词，表示“每个人”，为单数。介词短语“except the twins”修饰主语，因此谓语动词需用单数形式；句子描述一般情况，使用一般现在时，因此“be”动词的单数形式为“is”，否定形式为“is not”或缩写“isn’t”。故填isn’t/is not。 49. The weather report says a heavy storm ________ (hit) our city tomorrow morning, so we have to put off the trip. 【答案】will hit 【解析】 【详解】句意：天气预报说明天早上我们的城市将遭遇一场暴风雨，所以我们不得不推迟旅行。says后是宾语从句，主句时态是一般现在时，宾语从句的时态不受限制，结合“tomorrow morning”可知，此处应用一般将来时（will do），故填will hit。 50. She has a lot of things ________ (deal) with before the end of this week, so she can’t go shopping with us. 【答案】to deal 【解析】 【详解】句意：在这周末之前她有许多事情要处理，所以她不能和我们去购物。根据“has a lot of things…with”可知，横线处需填动词不定式作后置定语修饰名词things，deal“处理”，动词，其不定式形式为to deal。故填to deal。 六、完成句子(本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分) 51. 地震后，警察警告人们远离正在坍塌的大楼。 The police ________ the falling building after the earthquake. 【答案】warned people to stay away from 【解析】 【详解】根据中英文对照可知，此处缺少“警告人们远离”。“警告某人做某事”用“warn sb. to do sth.”，“远离”用“stay away from”。根据句意应使用过去式。故填warned people to stay away from。 52. 这场精彩的校园才艺表演导致不少学生去创作自己的原创作品。 This wonderful school talent show ________ their own original works. 【答案】led many students to create 【解析】 【详解】对照中英文可知，空处表示“导致不少学生去创作”，lead sb to do sth“导致某人做某事”，“许多学生”many students，“创作”create。根据汉语语境可知，时态是一般过去时，所以谓语动词用过去式，故填led many students to create。 53. 多种树在减缓气候变化中发挥重要作用。 Planting more trees ________. 【答案】plays an important role in reducing climate change 【解析】 【详解】根据中英文对照可知，此处缺少“在减缓气候变化中发挥重要作用”。“在做某事方面发挥重要作用”表达为play an important role in doing sth.；“减缓气候变化”表达为reduce climate change。句子的时态是一般现在时，主语是Planting more trees是动名词短语，谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式plays，reduce的动名词是reducing。故填plays an important role in reducing climate change。 54. 那些难民当时正四处奔逃。 Those refugees ________ at that time. 【答案】were running in all directions 【解析】 【详解】对照中英文可知，空处表示“正四处奔逃”，根据“at that time”可知，时态是过去进行时，“四处奔逃”run in all directions，主语是Those refugees，be动词用were，后跟现在分词。故填were running in all directions。 55. 他们建立了一个小组来保护机场免受破坏。 They ________ destruction. 【答案】set up a group to protect the airport from 【解析】 【详解】根据中英文对照可知，空格处缺“建立了一个小组来保护机场免受”，“建立”的英文是“set up”；“小组”的英文是“group”；“保护……免受”的英文是“protect...from”，应用不定式结构表目的；“机场”的英文是“airport”。根据句意判断时态为一般过去时，动词set的过去式为set。故填set up a group to protect the airport from。 七、阅读表达(本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) (每题答案不超过8个词) Last summer I got the chance to spend a month helping out in a hospital in Rwanda with my parents, who work for a charity. I had one year left at senior high school, and was interested in studying medicine at university. I thought it would be the perfect chance to see if I really wanted to be a doctor. It was a month that changed my life. I was introduced to a completely different world from the one I knew in so many ways, and I soon realized how difficult people’s lives can be. But I was also amazed at how positively (乐观地) people go about their everyday lives. The way they come together and help each other is a real encouragement, which is something I think a lot of us here in the UK have forgotten. I think many of us don’t realize how lucky we are. Although I’m a girl, I’m not afraid of getting dirty or tired at all. My work in the hospital was hard. I spent a lot of time cleaning floors, and I also got to spend some time looking after the patients. I even got the chance to talk to some doctors and ask them about the profession. All of them told me how difficult being a doctor in that hospital was sometimes—hard work and long hours, and so many emotional (情绪的) challenges. But all of them also said that they didn’t want to practise their profession anywhere else, because having seen the influence they were having on that community, they just wanted to go on. At times, it was a difficult experience, but it didn’t change my mind about being a doctor. Actually, I have made up my mind more strongly to do medicine and to work with the doctors and nurses I worked with there. When I finish, I know exactly what I’m going to do: I want to work for an international organization like the Red Cross or Médecins sans Frontières, so I can spend my life helping people overseas who really need it. I can’t wait to get started. 56. Did the writer study at senior high school or at university last summer? ________________________________________________ 57.

At the same time, a global (全球的) meeting on climate change was held in Glasgow, Scotland. There, leaders from around the world tried to deal with global warming. Why are we having such a cold winter on a warming planet? In fact, the cold winter and global warming are not contradictory. Global warming does not happen evenly (均衡地) on earth, and it leads to more extreme (极端的) heat and cold. Because of the warming climate, China has seen a growing temperature in winter. It has risen by 0.41℃every 10 years since 1961. But in some cases, the country has also seen extreme cold—for example, the icy weather in early 2008. Global warming has changed the earth’s air circulation (循环), affecting the local weather through sea-air or land-air interaction. For example, in October, La Niña affected China. It was caused by strong winds above the Pacific Ocean. It brought more cold air to China. Another reason for the cold weather is the warming Arctic, according to BBC. It is warming almost three times as fast as any other place on earth. The polar vortex (极地涡旋)—a rotating (旋转的) pool of cold air—becomes active as the temperature rises there. So lots of cold Arctic air then goes southward. Will this winter be much colder? The official forecast said a cold winter is possible. Northern China may see more snow than usual, and Southern China, less rainfall than usual. 19. What does the underlined sentence mean? A. We may have cold winter under global warming. B. Global warming doesn’t happen in cold winter. C. The cold winter leads to global warming. D. The cold winter has nothing to do with global warming 20. The icy weather in early 2008 may show that global warming ________. A. doesn’t happen everywhere B. is not as serious as we thought C. can cause more heat and rain D. can also lead to more cold 21. When La Niña happened, China ________. A. had a rise in temperature B. went through extreme floods C. was much colder than usual D. had a hotter summer than usual 22. The cold weather in October in China was affected by cold air from ________. A. ab B. ac C. bc D. bd C Dan meets Kevin in the village hall and he mistakes Kevin for’Nemesis’, a bully who often does something nasty (恶毒的) to kids. After chatting, they think they should do something. Dan and Kevin go behind the curtain and sit on the floor against the wall. Dylan lies down next to them and closes his eyes. The boys turn their torches off. They don’t talk. They sit and wait. It’s dark but Dan can see the time on his watch. 12:30 comes and goes. Then it’s 1 o’clock. Then there is a noise. The outside door is opening. Dylan opens his eyes. Then he sits up. He looks towards the door and makes a little noise. “Shh!” Dan tells Dylan. The outside door closes. Dan and Kevin see a light under the door to the hall. The door opens and someone turns on the lights in the hall. Very slowly, Kevin and Dan look out from behind the curtain. A person dressed all in black is standing in the middle of the hall. It is Chloe. She’s looking around. She starts moving chairs and looking for something. Then she walks across to the piano. She plays a little music on the piano and smiles. Dan looks at Kevin. Kevin looks at Dan. “Chloe smiling?” their looks say. The boys look around the curtain again. Chloe is looking around the room again. She looks towards the curtain. Dan and Kevin move their heads back quickly. Then they hear Chloe say, “Ah! There it is.” And they hear her walk towards the curtain. She takes something off a chair near the curtain and then sees the two boys sitting on the floor. “What are you doing here?” she asks. “What are you doing here?” asks Dan. Chloe shows him her mobile phone. “But what about you two?” she asks. Kevin takes some chocolate out of his pocket and shows it to Chloe. “We’re having a midnight picnic,” he says. Dylan sees the chocolate and starts wagging his tail. Chloe gives both the boys a strange look, turns off the lights and leaves. “It’s not Chloe then,” says Dan. “No,” says Kevin. “Be patient!” says Dan. —— Taken from Dan and the Village Fete 23. What is Chloe looking for in the village hall? A. The piano. B. A mobile phone. C. Some chocolate. D. A torch. 24.

They will have a midnight chocolate “picnic” with Chloe. D. They will tell others what they do and see in the village hall. D You can volunteer with three or four friends to do a team experiment (实验). First, you need to know a little about the water cycle. The water cycle starts when the sun heats ocean water. The sun converts, or changes, the water into water vapor (蒸气). The sun and wind cause the water vapor to rise into the air. Water vapor cools off in the atmosphere (大气层), or the air that surrounds Earth. Then it changes to drops of water. The drops then cluster, or hold together, forming a cloud. The water in the cloud falls as rain or snow. It may fall back into the ocean, or it may fall on land. If it falls on land, it finally works its way back to the ocean as a water overflow called runoff. As you begin your experiment, remember this amazing fact. The amount of water on Earth now is the same as it was in the past and will be in the future. About 71% of Earth’s surface is water. This includes not only the water in oceans, rivers, and lakes. It also includes the water in clouds, rain, snow, and groundwater and in the icy areas at the North and South Poles. Now make a model of the water cycle with a partner or small group. Use the instructions below: ●Fill cup about halfway with water. ●Add red food color to the water and stir. ●Use the marker to show water level. ●Put the cup in the bag and sea lit. ●Put the bag in a sunny window. After you finish making the water cycle model, watch carefully what happens to the water in the cup. Check the mark showing the water level. You should see that the water level becomes gradually lower. You should also begin to see small drops of water on the sides and bottom of the bag. The water is evaporating (蒸发) from the heat and then changing from the gas created by evaporating to water drops on the sides of the bag. The drops rundown the sides and will begin to collect at the bottom. This is what happens when the sun heats the ocean. Water vapor rises and forms clouds. The drops running down the sides of the bag are like rain filling on Earth. 26. In which part does “runoff” appear in the picture? A. A B. B C. C D. D 27 What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Earth’s surface. B. The water on Earth. C. Your experiment. D. This amazing fact. 28. How does the writer introduce the way of making the water cycle model? A. By showing the steps in order. B. By explaining cause and effect. C. By comparing and contrasting. D. By providing the examples in detail. 29. What can we learn from the experiment? A. Successful experiments need a lot of time and hard work. B. Simple experiments can also help understand science well. C. Students do the experiment in order to show their team spirit. D. Students know the amount of water on Earth from the experiment. 30. From which is the passage most probably taken? A. A storybook. B. A book review. C. A science magazine. D. A tourist guide. 四、词汇运用(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 31.
