Here are some of them. There’s no place like home. This proverb comes from the song Home, Sweet Home. It simply means home is always the best place. Maybe it’s not that comfortable, but it’s where love and family can be found. After being away for so long, you will always find there’s no place like home. So if you have been elsewhere for a long time, you can say “there’s no place like home” as soon as you arrive home to show how you miss your home and parents. The longest way round is the shortest way home. Though this proverb also has the word “home”, its meaning is not about “home” but about working and studying skills. Sometimes some students do their homework in a really quick way. They may think it’ll save time if they do it as fast as they can. However, if they only care about the speed (速度), it’s easy to make mistakes, and more time will be spent redoing the task. So slow down; slow is fast. Home is where the heart is. Home doesn’t have to be the building you live in. It is where you most want to be. Most people have their “home” in their minds. It may be the same city they live in now, the city where they grew up, the house where their parents live in, or the place where they are raising their family. 5. Where does the proverb “There’s no place like home” come from? A. A poem B. A story C. A song D. A movie 6. What does the underlined phrase “redoing the task” probably mean? A. Finishing the task B. Repeating (重复) the task C. Starting the task D. Ignoring (忽略) the task 7. What does the text talk about? A. Several meanings of “home”. B. Working and studying skills. C. Some English proverbs about “home”. D. Different places that can be called “home”. 8. Which sentence has the same theme as “There’s no place like home”? A. 儿童散学归来早，忙趁东风放纸鸢。 B. 停车坐爱枫林晚，霜叶红于二月花。 C. 黄梅时节家家雨，青草池塘处处蛙。 D. 独在异乡为异客，每逢佳节倍思亲。 【答案】5. C 6. B 7. C 8. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了几个关于“家”的英语谚语及其含义。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据“This proverb comes from the song Home, Sweet Home.’”可知，谚语“There’s no place like home.”来自于歌曲Home Sweet Home。故选C。 【6题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“it’s easy to make mistakes, and more time will be spent redoing the task. So slow down; slow is fast.”可知，学生们如果只追求速度，容易出错，会花更多时间重新做任务。“redoing the task”指的是“重复进行任务”。故选B。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据整篇文章的介绍内容可知，文章的主旨是介绍一些关于“家”的英语谚语及其意义。故选C。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据“you can say ‘There’s no place like home’ as soon as you arrive home to show how you miss your home and parents.”可知，谚语“There’s no place like home”的主题是表达对家的思念和归属感，与此主题相同的句子是“独在异乡为异客，每逢佳节倍思亲。”意为“独自在他乡做陌生人，每逢佳节倍加思念亲人。” 故选D。 C Do you find that your dinners with your parents are less happy than before? Do you find it easier to chat in the past but now it’s difficult? Do you and your parents often disagree on things? You’re not alone. Many kids and their parents have such experiences. When you’re growing up, your body changes a lot. You might worry about getting taller or heavier than your friends, or about your voice changing or getting spots on your face. When you feel worried, you might get angry at your parents sometimes. It’s also hard to balance (平衡) your feelings as you grow up. You get to a strange time called middle ground—no longer a small child but not quite an adult (成人). You want to do things by yourself more, but you still need your parents’ love and help. You want to make decisions by yourself, but your parents might not always agree. This can make you feel sad. But don’t worry too much about arguments with your parents. Many kids have them too. The most important thing is to talk to them. Tell them how you feel, even if it’s hard. They might not agree with you right away, but if you keep talking and listening to each other, you can find a way to make things better. Remember, your parents love you and want to help you. Sometimes they forget how hard it is to grow up. But if you keep talking to them and trying to understand each other, you can work things out. So keep trying, and you’ll find that you and your parents can get along just fine. 9. How does the writer lend into the topic? A. By telling n story. B. By asking questions. C. By listing some facts. D. By describing a picture. 10. What does “middle ground” mean in the third paragraph? A. Between being a child and an adult. B. Being a little kid. C. Being on adult. D. Being an old person. 11. What does the underlined word “This” refer to? A. Being not easy to make your own decisions. B. Always following parents’ advice at home. C. Having no time to talk or play with parents. D. Failing to balance homework and hobbies. 12. What’s the purpose(目的) of the text? A. To ask children to become more hard-working. B. To describe the change of looks to the teenagers. C. To give advice on how to get along better with parents. D. To show that teenagers have problems with their parents. 【答案】9. B 10. A 11. A 12. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了青少年在成长过程中与父母之间产生的交流困难及矛盾，并提供了一些改进沟通和改善关系的建议。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Do you find that your dinners with your parents are less happy than before? Do you find it easier to chat in the past but now it’s difficult? Do you and your parents often disagree on things?”中的几个问句可知，作者通过提问引入主题。故选B。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“You get to a strange time called middle ground—no longer a small child but not quite an adult (成人).”可知，“middle ground”是指不再是小孩子，但也不完全是成年人，表示介于儿童和成人之间的阶段。故选A。 【11题详解】 代词指代题。根据第三段的“You want to make decisions by yourself, but your parents might not always agree. This can make you feel sad.”（你想自己做决定，但你的父母可能并不总是同意。这会让你感到悲伤。）可知，“This”指代的是不容易自己做决定的情况。故选A。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的建议“ But if you keep talking to them and trying to understand each other, you can work things out. So keep trying, and you’ll find that you and your parents can get along just fine.”可知，文章的目的是给孩子们建议如何更好地与父母相处，故选C。 D ①Travelling is all about meeting something new and connecting with the world around us. Virtual Reality (VR 虚拟现实技术) is changing the way we travel by mixing the real and the virtual world together. ②VR travelling is a fun and exciting new way of travelling. You need to put on special glasses to see and visit places around the world, just like you are really there. Even in your own room, you can visit the Great Wall or swim with sea turtles anytime. ③VR travelling has many benefits. It can help protect popular places with too many visitors. Places of interest like Maya Bay and Angkor Wat are using VR to provide virtual trips without harming such wonderful places. VR can also take us back to the ancient time or the outer space. It gives us experiences that would be impossible to get from books. It lets people enjoy and experience new places better, more safely and conveniently. ④“VR travelling makes the impossible possible!” Emily Harper, a disabled (残疾的) girl, said excitedly. “It lets me visit places that might be hard to reach in real life.” ⑤However, some people say that VR can never take the place of real travel experiences. You cannot feel the weather, take beautiful photos with friends, enjoy the food or talk with people. Also, it can bring other problems. If people spend too much time on it, they might not want to go out with family and friends. What’s more, some of them might not be able to distinguish between the real world and the virtual world. They might think that they are the same. ⑥Every coin has two sides. While VR travelling might sound like something from a science fiction film, it’s already happening. In the near future, more and more people will get experiences and benefits from VR travelling. 13. Why does the writer talk about Maya Bay and Angkor Wat? A. To encourage us to go there. B. To show how to visit these places. C. To give an example of the benefit of VR travelling. D. To introduce these wonderful places of interest to us. 14. What does the underlined word “distinguish” mean? A. To know the truth. B. To see the fact. C To get the answer. D. To tell the difference. 15. What does the writer think of the VR travelling? A. It’s bad for people. B. It has a bright future. C. It’s the best way of travelling. D. We shouldn’t use it any more. 16. What is the structure (结构) of the passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】13. C 14. D 15. B 16. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了虚拟现实（VR）旅行技术的特点、好处以及争议，并展望其未来发展。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“VR travelling has many benefits. It can help protect popular places with too many visitors. Places of interest like Maya Bay and Angkor Wat are using VR to provide virtual trips without harming such wonderful places.”可知，提及玛雅湾和吴哥窟是为了举例说明虚拟现实旅行的好处。故选C。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据下文“They might think that they are the same.”可知，此处指有些人可能无法区分现实世界和虚拟世界，“distinguish”意为“区分”。故选D。 【15题详解】 观点态度题。根据“In the near future, more and more people will get experiences and benefits from VR travelling.”可知，作者认为虚拟现实旅行有光明的未来。故选B。 【16题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段引入主题；第二段介绍技术特点；第三段和第四段介绍好处；第五段介绍争议；最后一段未来展望。故选B。 第二节 阅读短文，从下面所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余选项。 One, two, three, which is lucky?

This proverb comes from the song Home, Sweet Home. It simply means home is always the best place. Maybe it’s not that comfortable, but it’s where love and family can be found. After being away for so long, you will always find there’s no place like home. So if you have been elsewhere for a long time, you can say “there’s no place like home” as soon as you arrive home to show how you miss your home and parents. The longest way round is the shortest way home. Though this proverb also has the word “home”, its meaning is not about “home” but about working and studying skills. Sometimes some students do their homework in a really quick way. They may think it’ll save time if they do it as fast as they can. However, if they only care about the speed (速度), it’s easy to make mistakes, and more time will be spent redoing the task. So slow down; slow is fast. Home is where the heart is. Home doesn’t have to be the building you live in. It is where you most want to be. Most people have their “home” in their minds. It may be the same city they live in now, the city where they grew up, the house where their parents live in, or the place where they are raising their family. 5. Where does the proverb “There’s no place like home” come from? A. A poem B. A story C. A song D. A movie 6. What does the underlined phrase “redoing the task” probably mean? A. Finishing the task B. Repeating (重复) the task C. Starting the task D. Ignoring (忽略) the task 7. What does the text talk about? A. Several meanings of “home”. B. Working and studying skills. C. Some English proverbs about “home”. D. Different places that can be called “home”. 8. Which sentence has the same theme as “There’s no place like home”? A. 儿童散学归来早，忙趁东风放纸鸢。 B. 停车坐爱枫林晚，霜叶红于二月花。 C. 黄梅时节家家雨，青草池塘处处蛙。 D. 独在异乡为异客，每逢佳节倍思亲。 C Do you find that your dinners with your parents are less happy than before? Do you find it easier to chat in the past but now it’s difficult? Do you and your parents often disagree on things? You’re not alone. Many kids and their parents have such experiences. When you’re growing up, your body changes a lot. You might worry about getting taller or heavier than your friends, or about your voice changing or getting spots on your face. When you feel worried, you might get angry at your parents sometimes. It’s also hard to balance (平衡) your feelings as you grow up. You get to a strange time called middle ground—no longer a small child but not quite an adult (成人). You want to do things by yourself more, but you still need your parents’ love and help. You want to make decisions by yourself, but your parents might not always agree. This can make you feel sad. But don’t worry too much about arguments with your parents. Many kids have them too. The most important thing is to talk to them. Tell them how you feel, even if it’s hard. They might not agree with you right away, but if you keep talking and listening to each other, you can find a way to make things better. Remember, your parents love you and want to help you. Sometimes they forget how hard it is to grow up. But if you keep talking to them and trying to understand each other, you can work things out. So keep trying, and you’ll find that you and your parents can get along just fine. 9. How does the writer lend into the topic? A. By telling n story. B. By asking questions. C. By listing some facts. D. By describing a picture. 10. What does “middle ground” mean in the third paragraph? A. Between being a child and an adult. B. Being a little kid. C. Being on adult. D. Being an old person. 11. What does the underlined word “This” refer to? A. Being not easy to make your own decisions. B. Always following parents’ advice at home. C. Having no time to talk or play with parents. D. Failing to balance homework and hobbies. 12. What’s the purpose(目的) of the text? A. To ask children to become more hard-working. B. To describe the change of looks to the teenagers. C. To give advice on how to get along better with parents. D. To show that teenagers have problems with their parents. D ①Travelling is all about meeting something new and connecting with the world around us. Virtual Reality (VR 虚拟现实技术) is changing the way we travel by mixing the real and the virtual world together. ②VR travelling is a fun and exciting new way of travelling. You need to put on special glasses to see and visit places around the world, just like you are really there. Even in your own room, you can visit the Great Wall or swim with sea turtles anytime. ③VR travelling has many benefits. It can help protect popular places with too many visitors. Places of interest like Maya Bay and Angkor Wat are using VR to provide virtual trips without harming such wonderful places. VR can also take us back to the ancient time or the outer space. It gives us experiences that would be impossible to get from books. It lets people enjoy and experience new places better, more safely and conveniently. ④“VR travelling makes the impossible possible!” Emily Harper, a disabled (残疾的) girl, said excitedly. “It lets me visit places that might be hard to reach in real life.” ⑤However, some people say that VR can never take the place of real travel experiences. You cannot feel the weather, take beautiful photos with friends, enjoy the food or talk with people. Also, it can bring other problems. If people spend too much time on it, they might not want to go out with family and friends. What’s more, some of them might not be able to distinguish between the real world and the virtual world. They might think that they are the same. ⑥Every coin has two sides. While VR travelling might sound like something from a science fiction film, it’s already happening. In the near future, more and more people will get experiences and benefits from VR travelling. 13. Why does the writer talk about Maya Bay and Angkor Wat? A. To encourage us to go there. B. To show how to visit these places. C. To give an example of the benefit of VR travelling. D. To introduce these wonderful places of interest to us. 14. What does the underlined word “distinguish” mean? A. To know the truth. B. To see the fact. C. To get the answer. D. To tell the difference. 15. What does the writer think of the VR travelling? A. It’s bad for people. B. It has a bright future. C. It’s the best way of travelling. D. We shouldn’t use it any more. 16. What is the structure (结构) of the passage? A. B. C. D. 第二节 阅读短文，从下面所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余选项。 One, two, three, which is lucky? Red, yellow, blue…which is lucky? Do you know lucky number and lucky color?
