When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch by writing to each other. However, one day that year, a letter that I sent came back, stamped “Address Unknown”. I had no idea how to find Linda. Over the years I missed her very much. I wanted to share my stories with her. There was an empty (空的) place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill. One day while I was reading a newspaper, I saw a photo of a young woman. She looked like Linda a lot. “This must be a coincidence,” I thought, but I still wrote to her. She called me as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs. Tobin,” a woman said excitedly, “Linda Evans is my mother. Just wait a moment. She will talk to you.” Then I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years. We both laughed and talked about each other’s life. Now the empty place in my heart is filled.

For more than 30 years, they had been getting along very well. Then their good relationship (关系) broke. It began with a small thing, then bitter (仇恨的) words, and then weeks of silence (沉默). One morning John woke up to find a stream between the two farms. “It must be Bob,” John thought. Then one day there was a knock on John’s door. He opened it to find a carpenter (木匠) standing at the doorway. “I’m looking for a few days’ work,” the carpenter said. “I do have a job for you,” John said. “Look across the stream at that farm. That’s my neighbour Bob. He dug (挖) a stream between the two farms. I want you to build a fence (栅栏)—an 8-foot fence. I don’t want to see his place or his face any more. I don’t have such a neighbour!” The carpenter said, “I think I know what to do, sir, and I’ll be able to do a job that makes you happy.” About sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmer’s eyes opened wide. There was no fence there at all! It was a bridge! And the neighbour, Bob, was coming across, with his hand outstretched (伸出). “Hi, John! You’re quite a guy to build this bridge!” Then they met in the middle, taking each other’s hands. “I’m terribly sorry for what I have said and done. We should be good to each other,” said Bob. Then they turned to see the carpenter, who was ready to go. “No, wait! Stay a few days. I have a lot of other jobs for you,” said John. “I’d love to stay,” the carpenter said, “but I have more bridges to build.” 1．Farmer John thought that Farmer Bob dug the stream because_______.

C Bright red in color, with perfect sweet-and-sour taste, tanghulu is a popular traditional snack in most parts of northern China. In the past, people mainly used the hawthorn berries (山楂) to make tanghulu. But now, people prefer to use other fruits like oranges, bananas, grapes and strawberries. To make some perfect tanghulu, you can follow these steps: Prepare what you need: Hawthorn berries or other fruits, white sugar and water. Step 1 Start off by washing the hawthorn berries or any other fruits you choose. Once done, dry the fruits. Don’t forget this step. Step 2 Put the fruits on bamboo sticks. If you use long sticks, put 4—6 pieces of fruits on each stick. If you use short ones, 1—3 pieces are enough. Step 3 Add water and white sugar to a pan and then mix them well. Heat the pan until bubbles (气泡) appear and the color changes. When doing this, you can test the temperature of the mixture by dipping (浸) a spoon of the mixture in cold water. When the mixture hardens (变硬) immediately, it is at the right temperature. It is the key to making your perfect tanghulu. Step 4 Now, dip each fruit stick into the sugar mixture to easily coat the fruits. Remember to turn it so that all sides are covered. Step 5 Once done, place each stick on a plate. Remember to leave enough space between each other to stop them from sticking together. After a few minutes, you can taste them. With the step-by-step instructions, you can have a try at home. Try with different kinds of fruits to see which taste you like best. 1．In Paragraph 1, the writer mentioned the ________ and ________ of the tanghulu. A．color; history B．taste; color C．size; taste D．history; size 2．After washing the fruits, we need to ________ first. A．make them dry B．put them on bamboo sticks C．heat them in a pan D．dip them in the sugar mixture 3．What does “It” refer to in Step 3? A．The way to test the sugar mixture. B．The way to heat the sugar mixture. C．The temperature of the sugar mixture. D．The time to dip fruit sticks into the mixture. 4．What does Step 5 mainly tell us? A．How soon you can taste them. B．How to cool the fruit sticks. C．Where to put the fruit sticks. D．What can stop the fruit sticks from sticking. 5．In which part of a magazine can we probably read the passage? A．Health. B．History. C．Travel. D．Food. D Every day I passed by a homeless old man on the street. He usually sat near where I went to school. Whenever I passed by, he said “hello” cheerfully, and I always said it back. I gave him some change I had. The old man always wore an old watch. It was not an expensive one by any means, but it worked. One day I found he wasn’t wearing it any more. I asked him why and he looked down and told me that the battery (电池) died so he threw it away. I knew he couldn’t buy a new battery and he certainly couldn’t pay for a new watch. He stayed on my mind all day, and I knew what I had to do. I went out to a shop and bought him a watch. It was not an expensive one, but was very like the one he had.When I saw him the next day, he was smiling and as cheerful as ever. When I bent down to put some change in his cup, I also dropped in the watch. I didn’t say anything about it. I just smiled at him and kept on walking. He didn’t even notice it until I had walked on.

By Nov 7, more than 100 bear a 1 had taken place since April, with 13 people killed, according to the Japanese government. Why are more bears coming c 2 to people? One reason may be climate change. According to a study, climate change can disrupt (干扰) when plants flower and when pollinators (传粉者), l 3 bees, are active. If these changes f 4 to fit together, plants and pollinators might no longer work with each other as well as before. This mismatch can affect the food the bears eat. B 5 they can’t find enough food in the wild, they might come into towns. For example, bears in Japan eat acorns. H 6 , this year, there aren’t many acorns because of warm weather and unusual rain, said the news website Explorers Web. The Guardian also reported that w 7 warmer winters, bears might start their winter sleep later, so they are more likely to meet people. Also, according to CNN, young people in Japan are heading to big cities for work, l 8 mostly older people in villages. This means more e 9 farmland and fewer people around, so bears can go into towns more easily. People are worried about bear attacks. In Japan, only hunters with licenses (许可证) can shoot bears.

When I arrived in London, I felt nervous by the seven-hour time difference, the new language, the buildings and the people at the train station. Everything was so different. It made me worried about my short stay there. I joined a girls’ middle school and learned many new things there over the course of five days. I felt lonely and helpless at first because my vocabulary (词汇) was poor. Although my learning partner was really friendly, I just couldn’t relax. This feeling continued until a PE class changed everything. Some girls smiled and invited me to join their baseball game. Even though I had never played baseball before, I decided to give it a try and managed to hit the ball on my first try. At that moment, time seemed to stop, and then cheers broke out all around me. The other girls hugged me and shouted, “Hey, Eileen, you did an amazing job!” From then on, I felt truly happy and relaxed, and I really began to fit in with others. That experience helped me see the bridge between London and my hometown, Tianjin—a bridge built with care and love. We may not come from the same country or have the same skin color, but love brings us all together. This lesson continues to hold great importance in my life. 1．When did the writer fly to London? 2．What can we know about the writer’s English? 3．How did the writer feel after the PE lesson? 4．What does the bridge stand for? 5．What lesson does the writer learn? 八、书面表达 学校英语社团正在开展“成长的变化”主题交流活动，需分享个人的成长经历。请根据以下提示，用英语写一篇短文。（满分15分） （1）描述你初中以来在学习、生活、性格等方面发生的变化。 （2）介绍你初中的一个朋友； （3）谈谈你对这些变化和交友的看法。 要求： （1）短文应包括提示中所有的写作要点，条理清楚，行文连贯，可适当发挥； （2）短文中不能出现真实的人名和地名； （3）词数不少于80词。 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 参考答案： 1、 单项选择题【答案】1,B 2,A 3,C 4,C 5,D 6,A 7,C 8,C 9,D 10,A 2、 完形填空题【答案】1．B 2．A 3．B 4．D 5．C 6．A 7．B 8．D 9．C 10．A 11．C 12．B 13．D 14．A 15．D 三、阅读理解 A: 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．B 4．C 5．D B: 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．B 4．B 5．D C: 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．C 4．C 5．D D: 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．D 4．A 5．C 四、【答案】1,E 2,F 3,A 4,C 5,B 五、1．attacks/ttacks 2．close/lose/closer/loser 3．like/ike 4．fail/ail 5．Because/ecause 6．However/owever 7．with/ith 8．leaving/eaving 9．empty/mpty 10．number/umber 六、【答案】1，putting out, 2， returning 3，were creating ,4， aches ,5， are getting rid of ,6， situation ,7， illness ,8， are connected with,9， so far ,19 rather than 七、【答案】1．During this year’s summer holiday. 2．Her English is poor/not so good. 3．Happy and relaxed. 4．Care and love. 5．Love brings people all together. 八、书面表达 【答案】     Since entering junior high, I have changed a lot.
