四、阅读理解(本大题共30分,每小题2分)
A
Winter can be a hard time for animals. The weather may be wet and cold, and food can be hard to find under the snow. But nature has given animals different ways to survive (存活). Let’s look at how animals go through this season.
Some animals get fat in the fall. They eat and eat, then their bodies can store the food quickly. So they needn’t eat more in winter. Moose (驼鹿) are such animals. They store (贮存) food in their bodies as fat. Their bodies use the stored fat as energy. Moose will also grow heavy coats of hair to keep warm as the weather becomes colder.
Other animals store fresh food for the cold days. For example, many animals spend cold days in burrows (地洞) like squirrels. They stay inside and sleep through most of the winter. On warmer winter days, they wake up and then eat some stored food.
Unlike bears, hibernators don’t eat at all. Before winter, these animals eat and eat to get fat. When winter comes, they sleep all day and all night. Their hearts beat very slowly and their temperature goes down. In this way, they don’t use much of the fat stored in their bodies.
Still other animals can move south before winter and come back after spring. This is called migration (迁徙). In the fall, many birds fly south in large groups. In spring when the temperature goes up, they will return.
41. How many kinds of animals are mentioned in the passage?
A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D. 5
42. According to the passage, which of the following animals is a hibernator?
A. B. C. D.
43. Which of the following poems is about the season in the passage?
A. 荷风送香气,竹露滴清响。 B. 空山新雨后,天气晚来秋。
C. 犬吠水声中,桃花带露浓。 D. 千山鸟飞绝,万径人踪灭。
B
Lake Victoria is the largest lake in Africa. It is also the second-largest lake in the world. It is an important lake because it is one of the sources for the longest river in the world, the Nile River. Lake Victoria provides a source of water, food, and power for several African countries. Lake Victoria is a big part of African life.
Unfortunately, Lake Victoria has a problem. It is shrinking. There are several power stations at Lake Victoria in Uganda. These are on the Nile River, and besides producing power, they keep the water of the lake at a certain level. For the past forty years, that level has been 11.9 meters. Over the last several years, the water level has dropped by about 2.5 meters. There seem to be several reasons for this drop.
One possible reason is drought (干旱). Drought has been very bad in the area since 2000. Lake Victoria gets all of its water from rain, so the drought means less water in the lake.
However, some environmentalists believe that the real problem is the power plants (factories) on Lake Victoria. Uganda depends on those power plants for most of its power, and they made the power plants larger in 2000. Many people believe the power plants have been taking too much water off Lake Victoria. As a result, they have been asked to use less water until Lake Victoria goes back to its old level.
Whether the low water level is caused by drought or power plants, the result is the same. This is already a poor area of Africa, where many people live a really hard life. People, animals and plants around Lake Victoria will suffer even more from low water levels on the lake. Many people need Lake Victoria for fishing or growing food. Fish need the water to live, and animals need it for water.
44. What does the underlined sentence “It is shrinking” most probably mean?
A. It is becoming larger. B. It is becoming more beautiful.
C. It is becoming smaller. D. It is becoming more useful.
45. The water level of Lake Victoria is now ________.
A. 2.5 meters B. 11.9 meters C. 14.4 meters D. 9.4 meters
46. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Rain water is the only source for the lake.
B. There has been little rain in the lake area since 2000.
C. The power plants in Uganda provide water for the lake.
D. The power plants in Uganda were made larger in 2000.
47. According to the passage, how can we solve the problems around Lake Victoria?
A. People must build more power plants.
B More sources of water must be found.
C. Every country should offer some money to Africa.
D. All the people living in the area should move to another place.
C
Thanks to the mass media(大众传媒), information travels fast. Reporter Xu interviews Dr. Gu, a mass media expert.
Xu: Good morning, Dr. Gu. People like to share information, don’t they?
Dr. Gu: Yes. Long ago, when early humans made a discovery, they told their friends. Information spread from person to person. However, mass media is different. It brings news and information to many people very quickly.
Xu: When did mass media begin?
Dr. Gu: In Tang Dynasty, people had the first newspaper. And in Song Dynasty, Bi Sheng invented the Movable Type Printing. His invention could quickly print many copies of a book. So today, millions of people can read newspapers around the world. Magazines are also popular because they focus on(专注于)one subject such as movies, fashion, or sports. Advertising helps to pay for the cost of publishing newspapers and magazines.
Xu: What happened next?
Dr. Gu: Movies, or “moving pictures”, were invented over 100 years ago. At that time, people started to film news and events from around the world.
Xu: And then the television came next, right?
Dr. Gu: In fact, the radio came next. It began about the same time as movies, but the first radio station didn’t start until 1920. Today, there are over 44,000 radio stations around the world. People can listen to the news while they drive or work.
Xu: When did television start?
Dr. Gu: It started in the 1930s. Now, television is everywhere, bringing entertainment to people. Some events are broadcast live while they are happening.
Xu: So people have a lot of ways to get the latest news, don’t they?
Dr. Gu: They do, but you mustn’t forget the latest way—the Web! Today, around 40% of the people in the world use the Web. The Web uses the Internet to give us 24-hour news. Also, with smartphones, people can access(访问)the Web wherever they go.
Xu: We live in very interesting times.
Dr. Gu: That’s true. It will be exciting to see what’s next in the world of mass media.
48. What is the difference between magazines and newspapers according to Dr. Gu?
A. Newspapers have more topics. B. Newspapers can spread information faster.
C. Magazines are more expensive. D. Magazines appeared later than newspapers.
49. Which of the following is the correct order of the history of mass media?
① television ② the Web ③ newspapers ④ radio ⑤ movies
A. ④ ③ ⑤ ② ① B. ⑤ ③ ④ ① ② C. ③ ⑤ ① ④ ② D. ③ ⑤ ④ ① ②
50. What do we know about mass media from the interview?
A. It mainly spread information from person to person.
B. Bi Sheng made great contributions to the mass media.
C. It’s very easy for people to access the Web while driving.
D. Readers should pay for the cost of publishing newspapers.
51. What is the purpose of the interview?
A. To show how many ways we have for news.
B. To show how important mass media is to us.
C. To show how mass media developed for years.
D. To show how fast we spread information today.
D
One day, three of my friends came to our house.
They told me they were going to Africa. They asked me if I wanted to go with them. I said, “Yes, of course I’d love to.”
We started to prepare all the necessary things for the journey. Soon we were ready to go. I said goodbye to my wife and we started our journey. Our plan was to be back in two months.
We left Brazil (巴西) on the first of September, 1659. Our ship was very big but we were only seventeen men. The ship was full of things for business. We had cups, glass, mirrors, knives and other things.
At the beginning of our journey, the weather was very good, but very hot. In one week, a hurricane (飓风) came and it was threatening our ship for the next twelve days. After the hurricane passed, we saw we went quite far away from our original (原来的) journey and were instead close to the northern part of Brazil near the Orinoco River. The ship was badly damaged, so we could no longer go to Africa.
The captain wanted us to go back and repair the ship, but I strongly disagreed with him. We went over the maps and decided the best thing to do was to go to Barbados and repair the ship there.
When we started this short trip, a second hurricane came. The next morning one of the sailors cried out, “Land?” and at that moment the ship stopped in shallow (浅的) water. We expected the ship to break apart (解体) at any moment because of the strong wind, so we all got into the small boat the ship carried. This was very dangerous because the seventeen of us were too crowded (拥挤的) in the boat, and it had no sail.
The waves (浪) were very big. The wind was too strong. The wind pushed us to big rocks. We knew the crash was close.
Suddenly, a huge wave came and overturned the boat. I was covered with water and couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t see the others or the boat. But I saw a little beach between the rocks.
Another wave carried me to the beach. I tried to get up. I also tried to go far away from the sea. I was able to move ten metres up. I was safe. But my arms and legs were very weak. I fell down and I was lying on the beach.
—— An excerpt from Robinson Crusoe
52. Why did the writer and his friends go to Africa?
A. To leave their wives. B. To make some money.
C. To send things to Africa. D. To travel around Africa.
53. What did they do after the first hurricane passed?
A. They had to go back to the place where they started.
B They studied the map and found a new way to Africa.
C. They headed for the nearest place to repair their ship.
D. They lost their way on the sea and gave up their ship.
54. Which is NOT the reason for the boat becoming dangerous?
A. No sail. B. Too many men. C. Big waves. D. Shallow water.
55. Which of the following shows the right order of the events?
① The ship changed the direction after the hurricane.
② All the men escaped (逃跑) to the boat but it turned over.
③ The writer was washed up onto beach by a wave.
④ The ship left Brazil with seventeen men on board.
⑤ The strong wind almost broke the ship into pieces.
A. ①②④⑤③ B. ④①⑤②③ C. ④⑤①②③ D. ④②①⑤③

Flu (流感) easily spreads from one person to another. If you are weak, you will probably catch flu easily. Do you know how you can prevent flu? Here are some suggestions.
Keep in good health
You can eat everything you want but make sure that your diet is healthy. The healthier you are, the better it is for you to avoid any type of illness around. Most doctors advise people to drink lots of fresh fruit juice and water to prevent flu.
Stay away from people with flu
If a member of the family or a friend has flu, stay away from him or her until he or she is well. Flu is very communicable (可传染的). If you stay with the person with flu, you can catch flu easily. Wear a mask (口罩) and avoid using things that the person with flu is using.
Exercise
Exercising will make you stronger, which means a stronger immune system (免疫系统) too. Exercise often so that your body will keep healthy. It doesn't matter what kind of exercise it is.
Be happy
Happy people are healthy people. Their life isn't stressed out, so they may be safe from illness. If you are unhappy, you will easily get sick.
Avoiding the flu is easy. Just boost (增强) your immune system and it will take care of the rest.

At first, I didn’t like the life in London when we arrived. It was still winter, so the weather wasn’t very nice. It was really cold and it rained all the time. I didn’t have any friends.

二、单项选择(本大题共10分,每小题1分)
21. It’s ________ pity that birds are now in danger, so we should have ________ pity on them.
A. a; the B. a; / C. /; a D. an; a
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:很遗憾,鸟类现在处于危险中,所以我们应该同情它们。
考查冠词的用法。It’s a pity that表示“……很遗憾”,第一空需用不定冠词a;have pity on表示“同情”,第二空不用任何冠词。故选B。
22. Her mother looked _________ at that moment when she heard the good news.
A. happy B. happily C. unhappy D. unhappily
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:当听到这个好消息时,她妈妈看起来很高兴。
考查形容词用法。 happy高兴的,是形容词;happily高兴地,是副词;unhappy不高兴的,是形容词;unhappily不高兴地,是副词。根据“when she heard the good news”可知,听到好消息会看起来很高兴,look表示“看起来”,是系动词,后接形容词作表语。故选A。
23. In order ________ for the meeting, my sister decided to get up early this morning.
A. not to be late B. not being late C. to be late D. being late
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:为了开会不迟到,我妹妹决定今天早上早起。
考查in order to的用法。in order to do sth.“为了做某事”,表目的,to do“动词不定式”,所以其否定结构为in order not to do sth.“为了不做某事”,根据“my sister forced herself to get up early this morning”可知应是为了不迟到,故选A。
24. Yesterday, we were playing football after school ________ the heavy rain suddenly started.
A. until B. while C. when D. before
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:昨天放学后,我们正在踢足球时,大雨突然开始。
考查从属连词辨析。until直到;while当……时,强调同时进行;when当……时,强调突然发生;before在……之前。主句“were playing”使用过去进行时表示过去正在进行的动作,从句“suddenly started”为一般过去时表示一个瞬间发生的动作,需用when连接表示“正在……时突然……”。故选C。
25. Today there are fewer and fewer forests. We must ________ down too many trees.
A. keep people cutting B. prevent people cutting
C. stop people to cut D. all the above
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:今天,森林越来越少。我们必须防止人们砍伐过多的树木。
考查动词短语。keep sb. doing sth.让某人一直做某事;prevent sb. doing sth.阻止某人做某事;stop sb. to do sth.阻止某人做某事(事情还未发生);all the above以上都是。根据“must...down too many trees”可知是要阻止人们砍伐树木,且人们砍伐树木的动作正在发生,故此处用结构prevent sb. doing sth.。故选B。
26. Like other wild animals, wolves only hunt ______ food. And they hunt ______ a team.
A. for; with B. as; for C. for; like D. for; as
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:和其他野生动物一样,狼只为了食物捕猎,它们作为一个团队狩猎。
考查介词辨析。for为了;with和;as作为;like像。第一个空,表示为了食物捕猎,用for;第二个空,表示作为一个团队,用as。故选D。
27. ________ the doctors in their hospital is about one thousand, and sixty percent of them ________ women.
A. A number of; is
B. The number of; are
C. The number of; is
D. A number of; are
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:他们医院的医生数量大约是一千人,其中百分之六十是女性。
考查the number of和a number of的区别。a number of...表示“许多……”,谓语动词用复数;the number of...表示“……的数量”,谓语动词用三单。根据“... the doctors in their hospital is”可知,此处指医生的数量,用the number of;根据“sixty percent of them”可知,“them”指代前文的“doctors”,故谓语动词用are。故选B。
28. It's important for us ___________ good manners.
A. having B. have C. to have D. had
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:良好的举止对我们来说重要。
考查非谓语动词。It's important for sb. to do sth.表示“做某事对某人来说重要”。it为形式主语,真正的主语为后面的不定式。故答案选C。
【点睛】在it固定句型中,除了要知道it用作形式主语,不定式作真正主语外,还要掌握sb.前面介词for/of的用法。在“It is + adj. + for sb. to do sth.”与“It is + adj. + of sb. to do sth.”两个句型中,介词用for还是of应根据作表语的形容词的词义特点和说话人的侧重而定。当形容词是说明不定式的特性时,要用介词for,也就是说不定式(短语)与形容词在逻辑上存在“主语和表语”的关系。例如:It's important for us to stay healthy. (保持身体健康对我们来说很重要。)
(本句子中的important说明的是to stay healthy的特性,即句子侧重的是说“To stay healthy is important.”) 注意:与介词for搭配的往往是表示事物的特性的形容词,如important、necessary、difficult、easy、hard、possible等。
当形容词是说明不定式的逻辑主语的特性时,要用of,也就是说不定式的逻辑主语sb.和形容词在逻辑上存在“主语和表语”的关系。例如:It's kind of you to help me.(你帮助我真是太好了。)(句中的kind是用来说明you的特征,即句子侧重说得是“You are kind.”)
29. Wearing masks can keep us safe from illness. ________, it can keep us warm when it is cold.
A. Otherwise B. However C. Because D. Moreover
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:戴口罩可以让我们远离疾病。此外,天气冷的时候,它可以让我们保持温暖。
考查副词和连词辨析。Otherwise否则;However然而;Because因为;Moreover此外。分析题干可知,空后内容是对空前内容的补充,moreover通常用于在句子中补充额外的信息。故选D。
30. —I don’t think keeping dogs will make you feel lonely.
—________ In my opinion, dogs sometimes bring you a lot of trouble.
A. Not exactly. B. I agree with you. C. I’m afraid so. D. That’s a good idea.
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我认为养狗不会让你感到孤独。——不见得。在我看来,狗有时会给你带来很多麻烦。
考查情景交际。Not exactly.不全是,未必见得;I agree with you.我同意你的观点;I’m afraid so.恐怕是这样;That’s a good idea.那是一个好主意。根据“dogs sometimes bring you a lot of trouble.”可知答句中并不同意这个观点,应该不全是。故选A。
三、完形填空(本大题共10分,每小题1分)

【36题详解】
句意:如果你把他们当作你的镜子,即使是一个聪明的人也会变得愚蠢。

四、阅读理解(本大题共30分,每小题2分)
A
Winter can be a hard time for animals. The weather may be wet and cold, and food can be hard to find under the snow. But nature has given animals different ways to survive (存活). Let’s look at how animals go through this season.
Some animals get fat in the fall. They eat and eat, then their bodies can store the food quickly. So they needn’t eat more in winter. Moose (驼鹿) are such animals. They store (贮存) food in their bodies as fat. Their bodies use the stored fat as energy. Moose will also grow heavy coats of hair to keep warm as the weather becomes colder.
Other animals store fresh food for the cold days. For example, many animals spend cold days in burrows (地洞) like squirrels. They stay inside and sleep through most of the winter. On warmer winter days, they wake up and then eat some stored food.
Unlike bears, hibernators don’t eat at all. Before winter, these animals eat and eat to get fat. When winter comes, they sleep all day and all night. Their hearts beat very slowly and their temperature goes down. In this way, they don’t use much of the fat stored in their bodies.
Still other animals can move south before winter and come back after spring. This is called migration (迁徙). In the fall, many birds fly south in large groups. In spring when the temperature goes up, they will return.
41. How many kinds of animals are mentioned in the passage?
A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D. 5
42. According to the passage, which of the following animals is a hibernator?
A. B. C. D.
43. Which of the following poems is about the season in the passage?
A. 荷风送香气,竹露滴清响。 B. 空山新雨后,天气晚来秋。
C. 犬吠水声中,桃花带露浓。 D. 千山鸟飞绝,万径人踪灭。
【答案】41. C 42. A 43. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了动物是如何过冬的。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Some animals get fat in the fall. …Moose (驼鹿) are such animals.”、“Other animals store fresh food for the cold days. For example, many animals spend cold days in burrows (地洞) like squirrels .”、“Unlike bears, hibernators don’t eat at all.”和“Still other animals can move south before winter and come back after spring. …In the fall, many birds fly south in large groups.”可知,文中提到了4种动物,分别是驼鹿、松鼠、熊和鸟。故选C。
【42题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Unlike bears, hibernators don’t eat at all...When winter comes, they sleep all day and all night.”可知,冬眠动物在冬天根本不吃东西。当冬天来临的时候,它们整日整夜地睡觉。结合常识可推知,选项中的四种动物,只有青蛙是只睡不吃的冬眠动物。故选A。
【43题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Winter can be a hard time for animals.”可知,文章讲述的是冬季,而诗句“千山鸟飞绝,万径人踪灭。”描述的也是冬季。故选D。
B
Lake Victoria is the largest lake in Africa. It is also the second-largest lake in the world. It is an important lake because it is one of the sources for the longest river in the world, the Nile River. Lake Victoria provides a source of water, food, and power for several African countries. Lake Victoria is a big part of African life.
Unfortunately, Lake Victoria has a problem. It is shrinking. There are several power stations at Lake Victoria in Uganda. These are on the Nile River, and besides producing power, they keep the water of the lake at a certain level. For the past forty years, that level has been 11.9 meters. Over the last several years, the water level has dropped by about 2.5 meters. There seem to be several reasons for this drop.
One possible reason is drought (干旱). Drought has been very bad in the area since 2000. Lake Victoria gets all of its water from rain, so the drought means less water in the lake.
However, some environmentalists believe that the real problem is the power plants (factories) on Lake Victoria. Uganda depends on those power plants for most of its power, and they made the power plants larger in 2000. Many people believe the power plants have been taking too much water off Lake Victoria. As a result, they have been asked to use less water until Lake Victoria goes back to its old level.
Whether the low water level is caused by drought or power plants, the result is the same. This is already a poor area of Africa, where many people live a really hard life. People, animals and plants around Lake Victoria will suffer even more from low water levels on the lake. Many people need Lake Victoria for fishing or growing food. Fish need the water to live, and animals need it for water.
44. What does the underlined sentence “It is shrinking” most probably mean?
A. It is becoming larger. B. It is becoming more beautiful.
C. It is becoming smaller. D. It is becoming more useful.
45. The water level of Lake Victoria is now ________.
A. 2.5 meters B. 11.9 meters C. 14.4 meters D. 9.4 meters
46. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Rain water is the only source for the lake.
B. There has been little rain in the lake area since 2000.
C. The power plants in Uganda provide water for the lake.
D. The power plants in Uganda were made larger in 2000.
47. According to the passage, how can we solve the problems around Lake Victoria?
A. People must build more power plants.
B. More sources of water must be found.
C. Every country should offer some money to Africa.
D. All the people living in the area should move to another place.
【答案】44. C 45. D 46. C 47. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了非洲最大的湖泊维多利亚湖正在因干旱和乌干达沿岸发电厂过度取水而水位下降,以及由此给当地居民和生态带来的严重问题。
【44题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“Over the last several years, the water level has dropped by about 2.5 meters.”可知,维多利亚湖的水位在过去几年里下降了约2.5米。所以“It is shrinking”最有可能意味着“它正在变小”。 故选C。
【45题详解】
细节理解题。根据“For the past forty years, that level has been 11.9 meters. Over the last several years, the water level has dropped by about 2.5 meters.”可知,正常水位是11.9米,现在下降了2.5米。因此,当前水位为11.9 - 2.5 = 9.4米。 故选D。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Many people believe the power plants have been taking too much water off Lake Victoria.”可知,发电厂是从湖中取水(taking...off),而非为湖供水(provide water for),C项表述错误。故选C。
【47题详解】
推理判断题。根据“People, animals and plants around Lake Victoria will suffer even more from low water levels on the lake. Many people need Lake Victoria for fishing or growing food. Fish need the water to live, and animals need it for water.”可知,解决维多利亚湖问题要寻找更多的水源。故选B。
C
Thanks to the mass media(大众传媒), information travels fast. Reporter Xu interviews Dr. Gu, a mass media expert.
Xu: Good morning, Dr. Gu. People like to share information, don’t they?
Dr. Gu: Yes. Long ago, when early humans made a discovery, they told their friends. Information spread from person to person. However, mass media is different. It brings news and information to many people very quickly.
Xu: When did mass media begin?
Dr. Gu: In Tang Dynasty, people had the first newspaper. And in Song Dynasty, Bi Sheng invented the Movable Type Printing. His invention could quickly print many copies of a book. So today, millions of people can read newspapers around the world. Magazines are also popular because they focus on(专注于)one subject such as movies, fashion, or sports. Advertising helps to pay for the cost of publishing newspapers and magazines.
Xu: What happened next?
Dr. Gu: Movies, or “moving pictures”, were invented over 100 years ago. At that time, people started to film news and events from around the world.
Xu: And then the television came next, right?
Dr. Gu: In fact, the radio came next. It began about the same time as movies, but the first radio station didn’t start until 1920. Today, there are over 44,000 radio stations around the world. People can listen to the news while they drive or work.
Xu: When did television start?
Dr. Gu: It started in the 1930s. Now, television is everywhere, bringing entertainment to people. Some events are broadcast live while they are happening.
Xu: So people have a lot of ways to get the latest news, don’t they?
Dr. Gu: They do, but you mustn’t forget the latest way—the Web! Today, around 40% of the people in the world use the Web. The Web uses the Internet to give us 24-hour news. Also, with smartphones, people can access(访问)the Web wherever they go.
Xu: We live in very interesting times.
Dr. Gu: That’s true. It will be exciting to see what’s next in the world of mass media.
48. What is the difference between magazines and newspapers according to Dr. Gu?
A. Newspapers have more topics. B. Newspapers can spread information faster.
C. Magazines are more expensive. D. Magazines appeared later than newspapers.
49. Which of the following is the correct order of the history of mass media?
① television ② the Web ③ newspapers ④ radio ⑤ movies
A. ④ ③ ⑤ ② ① B. ⑤ ③ ④ ① ② C. ③ ⑤ ① ④ ② D. ③ ⑤ ④ ① ②
50. What do we know about mass media from the interview?
A. It mainly spread information from person to person.
B. Bi Sheng made great contributions to the mass media.
C. It’s very easy for people to access the Web while driving.
D. Readers should pay for the cost of publishing newspapers.
51. What is the purpose of the interview?
A. To show how many ways we have for news.
B. To show how important mass media is to us.
C. To show how mass media developed for years.
D. To show how fast we spread information today.

D
One day, three of my friends came to our house.
They told me they were going to Africa. They asked me if I wanted to go with them. I said, “Yes, of course I’d love to.”
We started to prepare all the necessary things for the journey. Soon we were ready to go. I said goodbye to my wife and we started our journey. Our plan was to be back in two months.
We left Brazil (巴西) on the first of September, 1659. Our ship was very big but we were only seventeen men. The ship was full of things for business. We had cups, glass, mirrors, knives and other things.
At the beginning of our journey, the weather was very good, but very hot. In one week, a hurricane (飓风) came and it was threatening our ship for the next twelve days. After the hurricane passed, we saw we went quite far away from our original (原来的) journey and were instead close to the northern part of Brazil near the Orinoco River. The ship was badly damaged, so we could no longer go to Africa.
The captain wanted us to go back and repair the ship, but I strongly disagreed with him. We went over the maps and decided the best thing to do was to go to Barbados and repair the ship there.
When we started this short trip, a second hurricane came. The next morning one of the sailors cried out, “Land?” and at that moment the ship stopped in shallow (浅的) water. We expected the ship to break apart (解体) at any moment because of the strong wind, so we all got into the small boat the ship carried. This was very dangerous because the seventeen of us were too crowded (拥挤的) in the boat, and it had no sail.
The waves (浪) were very big. The wind was too strong. The wind pushed us to big rocks. We knew the crash was close.
Suddenly, a huge wave came and overturned the boat. I was covered with water and couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t see the others or the boat. But I saw a little beach between the rocks.
Another wave carried me to the beach. I tried to get up. I also tried to go far away from the sea. I was able to move ten metres up. I was safe. But my arms and legs were very weak. I fell down and I was lying on the beach.

【答案】should divide the class into##divide the class into
【解析】
【详解】根据汉语提示可知此处缺失“把班级分成”的翻译,“把……分成……”的英文表达是divide...into...,本句中“把班级分成四个小组”对应的短语就是divide the class into four groups;根据“suggested”可知,此处应用suggest that sb. should do sth.表示“建议某人应当做某事”,其中should可省略,情态动词should后加动词原形。故填(should) divide the class into。
77. 研究表明,经常熬夜与各种健康问题有关。

八、阅读表达 (本大题共10分,每小题2分)每小题答案不超过八个单词。
Flu (流感) easily spreads from one person to another. If you are weak, you will probably catch flu easily. Do you know how you can prevent flu? Here are some suggestions.
Keep in good health
You can eat everything you want but make sure that your diet is healthy. The healthier you are, the better it is for you to avoid any type of illness around. Most doctors advise people to drink lots of fresh fruit juice and water to prevent flu.
Stay away from people with flu
If a member of the family or a friend has flu, stay away from him or her until he or she is well. Flu is very communicable (可传染的). If you stay with the person with flu, you can catch flu easily. Wear a mask (口罩) and avoid using things that the person with flu is using.
Exercise
Exercising will make you stronger, which means a stronger immune system (免疫系统) too. Exercise often so that your body will keep healthy. It doesn't matter what kind of exercise it is.
Be happy
Happy people are healthy people. Their life isn't stressed out, so they may be safe from illness. If you are unhappy, you will easily get sick.
Avoiding the flu is easy. Just boost (增强) your immune system and it will take care of the rest.

85. I usually keep a healthy diet/exercise regularly. (开放性题目,答案合理即可。)
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了四种预防流感的建议。
【81题详解】
根据文章结构,作者在标题“Keep in good health”、“Stay away from people with flu”、“Exercise”、“Be happy”下分别提出了一个建议,共四条建议。故填Four./4.
82题详解】
根据“Most doctors advise people to drink lots of fresh fruit juice and water to prevent flu.”可知,大多数医生建议人们多喝新鲜果汁和水来预防流感。故填To drink lots of fresh fruit juice and water.
【83题详解】
根据“Flu is very communicable. If you stay with the person with flu, you can catch flu easily.”可知,我们应该远离流感患者,因为流感传染性很强,与患者待在一起容易被传染。故填Because flu is very communicable.
【84题详解】
根据“Exercising will make you stronger, which means a stronger immune system too.”可知,锻炼能使身体更强壮,这意味着免疫系统也会更强,从而有助于预防流感。故填Because exercising will make people stronger.
