1.There was _________ heavy storm last night and the temperature will drop _________ -3 degrees.
A.the; on B.a; to C./; in D.a; at
【答案】B
【详解】句意:昨晚有一场大暴雨,气温将下降到零下三度。
考查冠词和介词辨析。the定冠词,特指;a一个,不定冠词,泛指;/零冠词;on在……上;to到;in在……里面;at在。空一根据“There was...heavy storm”可知,此处表示有一场大暴雨,泛指,应用a,故排除A和C;空二根据“ drop...-3 degrees”可知,此处表示下降到零下三度。故选B。
2.Peter didn’t come to school today. He _________ ill.
A.may B.may be C.should D.should be
【答案】B
【详解】句意:彼得今天没来上学。他可能生病了。
考查动词辨析及系表结构。may可能;may be可能是;should应该;should be应该是。根据“Peter didn’t come to school today.”可知,Peter可能生病了,故排除C和D;根据“He...ill”可知,此处ill为形容词,故情态动词may后面应接be动词,构成系表结构。故选B。
3.Every year, about _________ cranes fly to Yancheng to spend the winter.
A.thousand of B.six thousands of C.six thousand D.six thousands
【答案】C
【详解】句意:每年大约有六千只鹤飞到盐城过冬。
考查thousand的用法。thousand不与具体数字连用,而是表示不确定的泛指数时,后面不仅要加复数词尾-s,而且要接介词 of,然后才能接名词;thousand与具体数字连用时,通常不加复数词尾-s,后面也不接介词 of。故选C。
4.Lots of people come to fish here, so the birds have _________ food to eat.
A.more and more B.less and less
C.fewer and fewer D.healthier and healthier
【答案】B
【详解】句意:很多人来这里钓鱼,所以鸟儿可以吃的食物越来越少。
考查形容词辨析及比较级。more and more越来越多的,其原级为many/much许多的;less and less越来越少的,其原级为little少的,修饰不可数名词;fewer and fewer越来越少的,其原级为few少的,修饰可数名词复数;healthier and healthier越来越健康的,其原级为healthy健康的。根据“Lots of people come to fish here,”可知,因为很多人来这里钓鱼,所以鸟的食物变得越来越少,food为不可数名词,所以应用less and less修饰。故选B。
5.The pool ________ water. We can swim in it.
A.is full with B.is fill with C.is full of D.is filled of
【答案】C
【详解】句意:池子里装满了水。我们可以在里面游泳。
考查形容词短语。be full of=be filled with“装满了……”,故选C。
6.I saw him _________ football with Nick half an hour ago.
A.playing B.played C.to play D.plays
【答案】A
【详解】句意:半小时前我看到他正在和尼克一起踢足球。
考查非谓语动词的用法。see sb. doing sth.表示“看见某人正在做某事”,强调动作正在进行。根据“half an hour ago”(半小时前)可知,“我”看到他踢足球这个动作正在发生,所以用playing符合语境。故选A。
7.“My friend gave me a nice notebook” The structure of the sentence is_________ .
A.S+V+DO+OC B.S+V+IO+DO C.S+V+O D.S+V+P
【答案】B
【详解】句意:“我的朋友给了我一个漂亮的笔记本” 句子的结构是S+V+IO+DO。A. S(主语)+V(谓语)+DO(直接宾语)+OC(宾补);B. S(主语)+V(谓语)+IO(间接宾语)+DO(直接宾语);C. S(主语)+V(谓语)+O(宾语);D. S(主语)+V(谓语)+P(表语)。My friend,S(主语);gave, V(谓语); me,IO(间接宾语);a nice notebook,DO(直接宾语)。故选B。
8.I was talking with my friend in the living room ________ my mum came in.
A.because B.when C.since D.while
【答案】B
【详解】句意:当我妈妈进来的时候,我正在客厅和朋友聊天。
考查连词辨析。because因为;when当……时候; since自从;while当……时候。while引导的时间状语从句,从句谓语用延续性动词,“came”为非延续性动词,故排除D;根据“I was talking with my friend in the living room”可知,此处是when引导的时间状语从句,主句是过去进行时,从句用一般过去时态。故选B。
9.My teacher told me to ________ when I was in trouble.
A.calm down B.come down C.slow down D.get down
【答案】A
【详解】句意:我的老师告诉我,当我遇到麻烦时,要冷静。
考查动词短语。calm down冷静;come down下来;slow down(使)慢下来;get down下来。根据“when I was in trouble.”可知,遇到麻烦时要冷静。故选A。
10.—Mr. Wu, I have to stay in hospital for a week because I hurt my arm.

C.No way. D.Never mind.

【详解】句意:——吴老师,我得在医院待一周,因为我伤了胳膊。——听到这个我很难过。
考查情景交际。What a shame!太遗憾了;I am sorry to hear that.听到这个我很难过;No way.不行;Never mind.没关系。根据“I hurt my arm.”可知,此处应表示对于对方伤了胳膊的同情,故此处应回答“I am sorry to hear that.”听到这个我很难过。故选B。

The lower branches (树枝) were becoming bare (秃的). Only the 17 of the tree was still green. I did my best to 18 it by feeding it a lot of fertilizer (肥料), but it didn’t work.
One morning, I went into the yard and looked at it again. I was wondering if 19 would be better to just cut it down. It would make mowing the lawn easier. 20 I walked over to take a closer look at it, however, I noticed something moving in the leaves. It was a robin (知更鸟) 21 building a nest in the topmost branches. I smiled when I 22 it. I thought maybe this old tree was still 23 . It might not be healthy or pretty, but it was still giving a bird a 24 . This tree made me know that all of our lives have purpose.
It doesn’t matter if we are young and strong or 25 and sick. Until the end of our lives, we have things to do, love to give, and joy to share. We can help to make this world a better and more beautiful place.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者从一棵长得不是很好的树中得到了生命的启迪——我们每个人的人生都是有目的的。直到我们生命的尽头,我都有事情可做,有爱可以给予,有乐趣可以分享。我们可以帮助使这个世界变成一个更好更美的地方。
11.句意:她的学校将这些嫩枝给学生们去种。
plant种植;sell卖;raise抚养;get得到。根据后文的“I planted them”可推知,此处学校给学生这些嫩枝是要她们种,plant符合语境。故选A。
12.句意:它们中没有一个看起来强壮,但对未来充满希望。
hope希望;fear害怕;trouble麻烦;surprise惊讶。根据空前的“but”可知,此处和前文的“None of them looked very strong”为转折关系,所以,hope“希望”符合语境。故选A。
13.句意:我把它们种在我们的后院。
near在……附近;in在……里面;out在……外面;behind在……后面。根据空后的“our backyard”可知,此处考查固定搭配in the backyard“在后院”,in符合语境。故选B。
14.句意:过了几年,因为一次割草机的事故和贫瘠的土壤,它们中的三根死了。
one一;two两;three三;four四。根据前文的“she brought home four small twigs (嫩枝) one day.”可知,学校总共给了四根嫩芽;又根据后文的“Only one grew crooked (弯弯曲曲的) and very slowly.”可知,最后只剩一根活了,所以,总共死了三根,three符合语境。故选C。
15.句意:最后,它看起来更像一棵肥肥的灌木,而不像一棵树。
tree树;grass草;vegetable蔬菜;flower花朵。根据后文的“Only the...of the tree was still green.”可推知,它实际上是一棵树,tree符合语境。故选A。
16.句意:几年前,我注意到它开始死亡。
leave离开;stay待;die死;shake摇晃。根据后文的“The lower branches (树枝) were becoming bare (秃的).”可知,此处表达的应是:这个棵树已经开始有死亡的迹象。故选C。
17.句意:仅仅只有这棵树的顶部还是绿色的。
middle中间的;side边;foot脚;top顶部。根据前文的“The lower branches (树枝) were becoming bare (秃的).”可知,这棵树下面部分的树枝已经秃了,由此可推知,此处讲的是只有顶部还是绿的,top符合语境。故选D。
18.句意:我尽最大努力通过给它施很多肥料的方式去拯救它,但这没有奏效。
paint画画;save拯救;complete完成;describe描述。根据“by feeding it a lot of fertilizer (肥料)”可知,作者此处是尽最大的努力去拯救这棵树。故选B。
19.句意:我想知道是否仅仅将它砍倒会更好一点。
it它,也可作形式主语;this这个;that那个;these这些。通过分析句子结构可知,“to just cut it down”才是真正的主语,所以,此处需用it作形式主语,it符合语境。故选A。
20.句意:然而,当我走过去近看它时,我注意到某物正在树叶中移动。
Until直到……为止;Before在……之前;As当……的时候;While当……的时候。根据“...I walked over to take a closer look at it, however, I noticed something moving in the leaves.”可知,主从句的动作是同时发生的,排除A和B;又因此处若是while引导的从句,从句时态需用过去进行式,排除D。故选C。
21.句意:那是一只知更鸟正在顶部的树枝处耐心地建一个巢。
easily轻易地;possibly可能地;politely礼貌地;patiently耐心地。根据空后地的“building a nest”可知,知更鸟在建巢,而建巢需要耐心,所以,patiently符合语境。故选D。
22.句意:当我看着它的时候,我笑了。
looked at看;looked for寻找;looked after照顾;looked through浏览。根据前文的“I noticed something moving in the leaves. It was a robin (知更鸟)...building a nest in the topmost branches.”可知,此处表达的应是:当我看着它时,我笑了。故选A。
23.句意:我想可能这棵老树还是有用的。
correct正确地;useful有用地;active活跃地;interesting有趣的。根据后文的“but it was still giving a bird a...”可知,这颗老树还是给了一只鸟一个家,由此可推知,作者此处表达的是:这棵老树还是有用的,useful有用的。故选B。
24.句意:它可能不健康、不漂亮,但它还是给了一只鸟一个家。
block街区;factory工厂;home家;room房间。根据前文的“It was a robin (知更鸟)...building a nest in the topmost branches.”可知,此处作者表达的是:这颗树还是给了一只鸟一个家。故选C。
25.句意:是否我们年轻强壮还是年老病弱并不要紧。
new新的;old老的,旧的;big大的。narrow狭窄的。根据“we are young and strong or...and sick.”可知,此处应填入“young”的反义词,old符合语境。故选B。

Do you think of white when someone talks about a polar bear? In fact, the polar bear does not have white fur. It just seems to be white when the sun shines on ice. Polar bears have a very good sense of smell. It helps them find food. During summer, polar bears sleep longer, because they are able to find their food more easily at night. Usually, after a meal, polar bears have a short sleep. A polar bear can have 2-3 babies at a time. They live with their mothers until they are about two and a half years old.
However, polar bears will die out soon because of people. There are only 20,000 to 25,000 polar bears in the world. Those polar bears left are trying to survive (生存) today. The number of them is becoming smaller and smaller because of the loss of sea ice-polar bears mostly live in the sea ice, not the land ice. This is happening because of global warming. Besides, they also have to face pollution, hunting and so on.
Some people don’t care, but other people want to save tigers, fight for giant pandas and save polar bears. Join them and try to make the world a better place for those beautiful and lovely animals.
29.What do Polar bears have?
A.A good sense of touch. B.A good sense of hearing.
C.A good sense of sight. D.A good sense of smell.
30.According to the passage, what problems are polar bears facing?
A.Pollution and global warming. B.Sleeping and hunting.
C.Food and the loss of land ice. D.Bad sense of smell and pollution.

A.Polar bears’ fur is white.
B.Polar bears have a good, happy life.

Is it OK for parents to lie to a child? For example, Linda’s 10-year-old son plays football. He’s not very skilled at it, but he loves it. Yesterday he didn’t play well. When he finished the game, he asked her mother, “Did I play well?” Linda said, “Yes! You’re a great football player!” Her words sparked a discussion about lying to children.
Amy thinks Linda did a right thing. Sometimes we have to tell white lies that are not harmful. It is necessary to tell white lies in daily life. Linda just wanted to make her son feel good.
But Jason doesn’t think parent should lie to our children. Linda lied to make her son feel better, but she missed a good chance of teaching him a life lesson. People should work hard for what they want. Maybe next time she can say, “No, you didn’t play well today. Great football players practise a lot. Let’s go and practise more.” The truth will make him strong and a good football player.
In my opinion, parents should be honest to their children, but they don’t have to tell the whole truth. Next time when our child asks, “Did I play well?” We can say, “What do you think? Did you give your best?” Then our child can tell us what he thinks. That way, everything we say is true, and we avoid the truth that hurts him.
33.How does the writer start the topic?
A.By giving an example. B.By listing numbers.
C.By comparing the results. D.By using famous sayings.
34.Which sentence is a white lie if your friend did badly in a singing competition?
A.You are not good at singing. B.You sang very well just now.
C.You have to practise a lot. D.You should give up singing.
35.What advice does Jason offer to Linda?
A.Linda shouldn’t let her son play football next time.
B.Linda shouldn’t answer his son’s question next time.
C.Linda should tell another white lie to her son next time.
D.Linda should encourage (鼓励) her son to practise more next time.
36.Which opinion would the writer most probably agree with?
A.Parents have to tell the whole truth.
B.Telling lies to children is completely wrong.
C.Parents should always make children feel good.
D.Parents should be honest to their children, but try not to hurt them.
【答案】33.A 34.B 35.D 36.D
【导语】本文是一篇议论文,主要讨论了家长该不该跟孩子说谎的问题。
33.细节理解题、根据第一段中“Is it OK for parents to lie to a child? For example, Linda’s 10-year-old son plays football. He’s not very skilled at it, but he loves it.…”可知,作者以一个例子开始了这个话题。故选A。
34.推理判断题。根据第二段中“Sometimes we have to tell white lies that are not harmful. It is necessary to tell white lies in daily life.”可知,有时候我们不得不说一些无害的善意的谎言。日常生活中说善意的谎言是很有必要的。由此可知,B选项“你刚才唱得很好。”属于善意的谎言。故选B。
35.细节理解题。根据第三段中“But Jason doesn’t think parent should lie to our children. Linda lied to make her son feel better, but she missed a good chance of teaching him a life lesson.…Maybe next time she can say, ‘No, you didn’t play well today. Great football players practise a lot. Let’s go and practise more.’”可知,杰森给琳达提的建议是琳达应该鼓励她的儿子下次多练习。故选D。
36.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In my opinion, parents should be honest to their children, but they don’t have to tell the whole truth.…That way, everything we say is true, and we avoid the truth that hurts him.”可知,父母应该对孩子诚实,但尽量不要伤害他们。故选D。

One day, John Dolittle was sitting in his kitchen talking with the Cat’s-meat-Man who came to see him with a stomachache.
“Why don’t you give up being a people’s doctor, and be an animal-doctor?” asked the Cat’s-meat-Man. The parrot, Polynesia, stopped singing and started to listen. “You see, Doctor,” the Cat’s-meat-Man went on, “you know all about animals-much more than some local animal doctors. Be an animal-doctor.”
When the Cat’s-meat-Man left, the parrot flew onto the Doctor’s table and said,
“That man got sense. That’s what you should do. Be an animal-doctor. Give the foolish people up—if they are not clever enough to see you are the best doctor in the world. Take care of animals instead—they’ll soon find it out. Be an animal—doctor!”
“Oh, there are plenty of animal-doctors,” said John Dolittle.
“Yes,” said Polynesia. “But none of them are good at all. Now listen, Doctor, do you know that animals can talk?”
“I know that parrots can talk,” said the Doctor.
“Oh, my! You don’t say so!” said the Doctor, “You never talked that way to me before. Tell me some more! Now don’t go too fast-and I’ll write it down. This is interesting-very interesting-something quite new! Give me the Birds’A.B.C.first -slowly now!”
At tea-time, when the dog, Jip, came in, the parrot said, “See, he’s talking to you.” “What does that mean?” asked the Doctor.
“That means, ‘Can’t you see that it has stopped raining?’” Polynesia answered. “He is asking you a question. Dogs always use their noses to ask questions.”
After a while, with the parrot’s help, the Doctor got to learn the language of the animals so well that he could talk to them himself and understand everything they said. Then he gave up being a people’s doctor altogether.
—Taken from The Story of Doctor Dolittle
37.What does the underlined phrase “got sense” mean?
A.Was ill. B.Was crazy. C.Was correct. D.Was humorous.
38.When the parrot advised Doctor Dolittle to be an animal doctor, he possibly felt ________.

A.adbc B.adcb C.dcab D.dacb
40.What can we infer from the passage?
A.The Cat’s-meat-Man trust people’s doctors.
B.Dogs and parrots spoke the same animal language.
C.Animal doctors needed to learn different languages.
D.Doctor Dolittle was not popular as a people’s doctor.
【答案】37.C 38.A 39.D 40.D
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,文章节选自《怪医杜立德》,讲述了杜立德医生是如何从为人治病变成为动物治病的过程。
37.词义猜测题。根据“That’s what you should do. Be an animal-doctor.”可知,后文表示了理解,因此“got sense”在这里表示“正确”或“明智”,C项“was correct”符合语境。故选C。
38.推理判断题。根据医生说的“Oh, there are plenty of animal-doctors,”可知,当鹦鹉建议杜立德医生成为兽医时,他说的是“已经有很多兽医了”,因此他可能感到不确定,因为这是他之前没有考虑过的方向。故选A。
39.细节理解题。根据“Why don’t you give up being a people’s doctor, and be an animal-doctor?”可知,Cat’s-meat-Man建议杜立德医生当兽医;根据鹦鹉说的“That man got sense. That’s what you should do.”可知,鹦鹉会和医生交流,鹦鹉本身也会用动物语言;根据“Give me the Birds’A.B.C.first -slowly now!”可知杜立德医生对鸟语产生兴趣;以及“After a while, with the parrot’s help, the Doctor got to learn the language of the animals so well that he could talk to them himself and understand everything they said.”可知, 杜立德医生可以说动物语言。因此,正确的顺序是dacb。故选D。
40.推理判断题。根据Cat’s-meat-Man问的“Why don’t you give up being a people’s doctor, and be an animal-doctor?”以及“Then he gave up being a people’s doctor altogether.”可推断,杜立德医生作为一名人民医生并不受欢迎。故选D。

For most of us, the Arctic (北极地区) and the Antarctic (南极地区) are very far places. The Arctic is the most northern part of the earth and it is the area around the North Pole. The Antarctic is the most southern part of the earth and it is the area around the South Pole. 41
Weather
Both places are very, very cold. 42 Much of the ice there never melts (融化). You may be surprised to know there are not many snowstorms in either place. Small pieces of ice blow around and look like falling snow.
What Is Under the Ice?
One very big difference is what is under the ice. Water is under most of the ice in the Arctic. 43 The Antarctic is a large continent (大陆). It has plains (平原), valleys and mountains. They are covered with ice.
Animals
44 Polar bears live in the Arctic. Some foxes and wolves live there, too. Most animals can't live in the Antarctic because it is too cold. However, penguins (企鹅) can live there. There are some animals that can live in both places, such as whales.
People
Many people live in the Arctic. There are towns and small cities on the land areas. The Antarctic is so cold that nobody lives there for long. 45 They live in special buildings and don't spend much time outside.
A.Animals live in both places.
B.Both of them are covered with ice.
C.Land is under most of the ice in the Antarctic.
D.Or I think we should protect wild animals there.
E.There are so many animals that will move to the cold place.
F.Scientists who study the Antarctic stay there while they are working.
G.Both of the places have a lot in common (共同之处), but they are also different in many ways.

【答案】fishermen’s
【详解】句意:看,那边那些漂亮的船是渔民的。你可以在那里拍照。根据中文提示和“those”可知,需要名词复数,主语与“渔民”构成所属关系,因此用名词所有格,fishermen’s符合句意,故填fishermen’s。
48.Tom was a man with few words and was completely (沉默的) during the visit.

Nancy was 54 popular girl at school. She was smart and fun. From an early age, she tried to be kind and friendly to everyone. She invited all her classmates 55 (join) her birthday party. She gave gifts to everybody. She was very busy because she had so many friends to spend every day with. She felt very 56 (luck). But everything changed on National Friendship Day. 57 that day, everyone had to give three gifts to their three best friends. Nancy enjoyed choosing three from all her friends. However, after 58 (give) three gifts, Nancy didn’t get one! Even Lily, a girl who always played with her every day, didn’t give 59 (she) a gift.
When she got home that night, Nancy 60 (tell) her mother what happened. Her mother touched her head gently (温柔地) and said, “You can’t buy friends with a smile or a few good words. For most of your classmates, you’re only a playmate. If you 61 (real) want true friends, you should really care about your friends.”
That night, in bed, Nancy thought about her 62 (mother) words. Then she thought that her mother always helped her 63 stayed with her at anytime. Until that moment, Nancy knew the meaning of a true friend.
【答案】
54.a 55.to join 56.lucky 57.On 58.giving 59.her 60.told 61.really 62.mother’s 63.and
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了Nancy在友谊节一无所获的故事,最后在妈妈的帮助下,她明白了彼此陪伴和关心的朋友才是真正的朋友。

59.句意:甚至一个每天都和她一起玩耍的女孩Lily,也没有送她礼物。give sb. sth.“把某物给某人”,这里的sb.如果是人称代词,用宾格形式;she是人称代词,其宾格形式为her。故填her。
60.句意:那天夜里回到家的时候,Nancy把发生的事情告诉了她的妈妈。根据从句“When she got home that night”时态可知主句时态是一般过去时,谓语动词tell变为过去式told。故填told。
61.句意:如果你确实想要真朋友,你就应该真正地去关心你的朋友。从句中主谓宾完整,可考虑副词修饰动词want;real对应的副词是really。故填really。

【答案】例文
Dear President,
I would like to introduce myself to this year’s winter camp of the Environmental Protection Organization. I’m a 14-year-old student from Class 1, Grade 8 at Sunshine Middle School. I’m tall and strong, with glasses framing my bright eyes, and I’m known for my positive vibe and knack for chatting up a storm. As the student body president, I’ve honed my skills in swiftly tackling tasks—like organizing last month’s school fair in just a week!
Winter is my favorite season. I love nothing more than a snowy day for a snowball fight. But my heart truly lies with wildlife. I’m fascinated by how each animal fits perfectly in nature, like the way arctic foxes adapt to survive harsh winters.
I want to join this year’s winter camp of the Environmental Protection Organization because I want to realize how crucial our natural world is, especially for wild animals facing habitat threats. I want to do my bit to improve their living conditions. Can’t wait to dive into projects that make a real difference!
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours sincerely,
Simon

Do you think of white when someone talks about a polar bear? In fact, the polar bear does not have white fur. It just seems to be white when the sun shines on ice. Polar bears have a very good sense of smell. It helps them find food. During summer, polar bears sleep longer, because they are able to find their food more easily at night. Usually, after a meal, polar bears have a short sleep. A polar bear can have 2-3 babies at a time. They live with their mothers until they are about two and a half years old.
However, polar bears will die out soon because of people. There are only 20,000 to 25,000 polar bears in the world. Those polar bears left are trying to survive (生存) today. The number of them is becoming smaller and smaller because of the loss of sea ice-polar bears mostly live in the sea ice, not the land ice. This is happening because of global warming. Besides, they also have to face pollution, hunting and so on.
Some people don’t care, but other people want to save tigers, fight for giant pandas and save polar bears. Join them and try to make the world a better place for those beautiful and lovely animals.
29.What do Polar bears have?
A.A good sense of touch. B.A good sense of hearing.
C.A good sense of sight. D.A good sense of smell.
30.According to the passage, what problems are polar bears facing?
A.Pollution and global warming. B.Sleeping and hunting.
C.Food and the loss of land ice. D.Bad sense of smell and pollution.
31.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Polar bears’ fur is white.
B.Polar bears have a good, happy life.
C.Polar bears can have more than three babies at a time.
D.It’s easier for polar bears to find food at night in summer.
32.What is the main idea of this passage?
A.To let people know why polar bears are in danger.
B.To show the number of polar bears is getting smaller.
C.To talk about polar bears and ask people to protect them.
D.To tell people that polar bears will soon have nowhere to live.

Is it OK for parents to lie to a child? For example, Linda’s 10-year-old son plays football. He’s not very skilled at it, but he loves it. Yesterday he didn’t play well. When he finished the game, he asked her mother, “Did I play well?” Linda said, “Yes! You’re a great football player!” Her words sparked a discussion about lying to children.
Amy thinks Linda did a right thing. Sometimes we have to tell white lies that are not harmful. It is necessary to tell white lies in daily life. Linda just wanted to make her son feel good.
But Jason doesn’t think parent should lie to our children. Linda lied to make her son feel better, but she missed a good chance of teaching him a life lesson. People should work hard for what they want. Maybe next time she can say, “No, you didn’t play well today. Great football players practise a lot. Let’s go and practise more.” The truth will make him strong and a good football player.
In my opinion, parents should be honest to their children, but they don’t have to tell the whole truth. Next time when our child asks, “Did I play well?” We can say, “What do you think? Did you give your best?” Then our child can tell us what he thinks. That way, everything we say is true, and we avoid the truth that hurts him.
33.How does the writer start the topic?
A.By giving an example. B.By listing numbers.
C.By comparing the results. D.By using famous sayings.
34.Which sentence is a white lie if your friend did badly in a singing competition?
A.You are not good at singing. B.You sang very well just now.
C.You have to practise a lot. D.You should give up singing.
35.What advice does Jason offer to Linda?
A.Linda shouldn’t let her son play football next time.
B.Linda shouldn’t answer his son’s question next time.
C.Linda should tell another white lie to her son next time.
D.Linda should encourage (鼓励) her son to practise more next time.
36.Which opinion would the writer most probably agree with?
A.Parents have to tell the whole truth.
B.Telling lies to children is completely wrong.
C.Parents should always make children feel good.
D.Parents should be honest to their children, but try not to hurt them.
D
One day, John Dolittle was sitting in his kitchen talking with the Cat’s-meat-Man who came to see him with a stomachache.
“Why don’t you give up being a people’s doctor, and be an animal-doctor?” asked the Cat’s-meat-Man. The parrot, Polynesia, stopped singing and started to listen. “You see, Doctor,” the Cat’s-meat-Man went on, “you know all about animals-much more than some local animal doctors. Be an animal-doctor.”
When the Cat’s-meat-Man left, the parrot flew onto the Doctor’s table and said,
“That man got sense. That’s what you should do. Be an animal-doctor. Give the foolish people up—if they are not clever enough to see you are the best doctor in the world. Take care of animals instead—they’ll soon find it out. Be an animal—doctor!”
“Oh, there are plenty of animal-doctors,” said John Dolittle.
“Yes,” said Polynesia. “But none of them are good at all. Now listen, Doctor, do you know that animals can talk?”
“I know that parrots can talk,” said the Doctor.
“Oh, my! You don’t say so!” said the Doctor, “You never talked that way to me before. Tell me some more! Now don’t go too fast-and I’ll write it down. This is interesting-very interesting-something quite new! Give me the Birds’A.B.C.first -slowly now!”
At tea-time, when the dog, Jip, came in, the parrot said, “See, he’s talking to you.” “What does that mean?” asked the Doctor.
“That means, ‘Can’t you see that it has stopped raining?’” Polynesia answered. “He is asking you a question. Dogs always use their noses to ask questions.”
After a while, with the parrot’s help, the Doctor got to learn the language of the animals so well that he could talk to them himself and understand everything they said. Then he gave up being a people’s doctor altogether.
—Taken from The Story of Doctor Dolittle
37.What does the underlined phrase “got sense” mean?
A.Was ill. B.Was crazy. C.Was correct. D.Was humorous.
38.When the parrot advised Doctor Dolittle to be an animal doctor, he possibly felt ________.
