But inside, they made the houses comfortable. They added modern things like soft beds and clean bathrooms. A guide led me to a big square. People were getting together there. Some were eating delicious steamed chicken, and others were talking and laughing in the sun. “This is our sweet home,” the guide said. “We love it here because it has our history and our happy life.” From this trip, I learned that a sweet home is not just a place to live.

You don’t want to be impolite by telling them to shut up, but you really want to get out of the conversation. Here are some ways to help you. Use body language. While it may feel impolite, you could turn away, leave your headphones on, and avoid looking at his or her eyes, which will show that you don’t want to talk. This may save you from directly telling someone to stop talking later on. Keep working on whatever activity you are doing. Get up and move around. Be active and find little things to do instead of listening. Interrupt them as soon as you can. Saying things like “I’d like to add something” or “If I could interrupt you for just a minute” will often let someone know that they are talking too much. Lead the conversation. This is especially helpful when dealing with someone you often talk to. Let them know that you heard what they said and guide the conversation in a different direction. Mention that you don’t have a lot of time to talk. Expressions like “I would love to chat but I have to go to a movie right now” and “Today’s not a great day to talk. I have a lot of tasks” will make you easily end the conversation. Sometimes ending a conversation may not be so easy. Remember it is a skill to back out of a conversation without saying “You are boring. Shut up.” 42. What does the underlined word “Interrupt” mean? A. Refuse. B. Leave. C. Break. D. Accept. 43. Which of the following is the best way to make someone stop talking? A. Getting up and finding something else to do. B. Saying someone is boring directly. C. Looking at him or her and listening carefully. D. Leaving your headphones off and keep smiling. 44. What can we know according to the text? A. We can end a conversation easily. B. To end a conversation politely, we need to get some skills. C. Don’t stop talking until someone ends it. D. It’s impolite to guide a conversation in a different direction. 45.

Think about butterflies, for example. They have beautiful, colourful wings and strong, fantastic flying skills. In summer, you can see them flying freely over flower gardens and wild fields. But do you know how butterflies become flying insects? It’s one of the amazing wonders of nature. In the beginning, female butterflies lay a small and colourful egg on a leaf or stem (茎) of a plant. It’s hard to believe that the egg will become something completely different in a few days. It turns into a walking insect. This insect is called a caterpillar (幼虫). It now has legs, eyes and a large body. A new life has begun. The caterpillar can eat, walk and see, but it is still not a butterfly. Soon, after growing big, the caterpillar makes a cover for itself. It covers itself in a protective blanket (保护层) and goes to sleep. This stage is known as the “pupa (蛹)” stage. After a period of time, the blanket breaks and a wet, weak butterfly appears. It now has six legs, a mouth, eyes and wings. Shortly, the wings fill with blood, and the beautiful, colourful butterfly spreads its wings and flies away. After a few weeks, this adult butterfly lays her eggs, and the cycle begins all over again. This is just one example of the wonders of nature. Look into the woods and mountains and see what you can find next. 46. What is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 1? A. Butterflies are a kind of insect. B. Butterflies are good at flying. C. Butterflies have colourful wings. D. Butterflies have a good sense of smell. 47. What does the underlined word “cover” mean in Paragraph 4? A. A thing that the caterpillar discovers to hide under. B. A thing that the caterpillar makes to protect itself. C. A thing that the caterpillar uses to hide its food. D. A thing that the caterpillar finds to clean itself. 48. What’s the structure of this passage? A. ①/②③④⑤/⑥ B. ①②③/④⑤/⑥ C. ①②/③④/⑤⑥ D. ①②/③④⑤/⑥ 49. What can be the best title for the text? A. One Insect, Different Colours B. One Insect, Four Lives C The Kinds of Butterflies D. The Habits of Butterflies 【答案】46. D 47. B 48. A 49. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了大自然的奇迹——蝴蝶的生命周期，详细描述了它从卵、幼虫、蛹到成虫这四个阶段的转变过程。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Take a close look at the world of insects…Think about butterflies, for example.”可知，蝴蝶被作为昆虫世界的例子提出，说明它是昆虫的一种，对应A项；根据“They have…strong fantastic flying skills.”可知，蝴蝶拥有出色的飞行技巧，对应B项；根据“They have beautiful colourful wings…”可知，蝴蝶长着彩色的翅膀，对应C项。文中第一段并未提及蝴蝶的嗅觉。故选D。 【47题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“Soon, after growing big, the caterpillar makes a cover for itself. It covers itself in a protective blanket (保护层) and goes to sleep.”可知，后句中的“保护层”是对前句“cover”的进一步解释与说明，指出毛毛虫在进入睡眠阶段前会为自己制作一个起保护作用的覆盖层。由此推断，cover在此处的含义是“毛毛虫制作的用来保护自己的东西”。故选B。 【48题详解】 篇章结构题。文章第一段通过“Nature is amazing!”引出对昆虫世界的探索；第二至五段按照卵、幼虫、蛹、成虫的时间顺序详细阐述了蝴蝶发育的四个阶段，构成了文章的主体说明部分；第六段总结了这种循环并呼应开头，指出这是自然奇迹的一个缩影。全篇呈现出“引出话题—具体分述—总结归纳”的结构，即①/②③④⑤/⑥。故选A。 【49题详解】 最佳标题题。文章的核心内容是介绍蝴蝶生命历程中经历的四个完全不同的形态阶段，即卵、幼虫、蛹和成虫。选项B“一只昆虫，四种生命形态”最适合作文章的标题。故选B。 E The Chinese New Year was coming, and Li Mei, a 14-year-old girl, felt excited. Li Mei’s parents told her about the tradition (传统) of cleaning the house before the New Year. Li Mei wanted to make her parents happy. She decided to start by cleaning her own room. On a sunny winter morning, Li Mei started to work. She made her bed first and then looked through her clothes. She put away the ones that were too small for her. She wanted to give them to people in need. She also found a small, beautiful qipao. Her grandmother made it for her. Li Mei used to wear it for the Chinese New Year celebrations, and she hoped it would bring joy to someone else. After that, she organized her books and cleaned the bookcases. She found many special things that she had forgotten about. Old pictures reminded her of happy times, like birthday celebrations and interesting trips. Cards and letters from her friends made her miss them so much. With her room almost clean, Li Mei swept and cleaned the floor. Later that day, when Li Mei’s parents came home from work, they were happy about Li Mei’s hard work. Together, they cleaned the rest of the house.

She decided to start by cleaning her own room.”可知，Li Mei决定打扫自己的房间是因为她想让父母开心。故选C。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据“She made her bed first and then looked through her clothes. She put away the ones that were too small for her.”可知，她先整理了床铺，接着收好了旧衣服；根据“With her room almost clean, Li Mei swept and cleaned the floor.”以及“On the night before the Chinese New Year, Li Mei’s family had an enjoyable dinner.”可知，随后她清扫了地板，最后全家在除夕之夜共进晚餐。因此正确的事件顺序为①③②④。故选B。 【52题详解】 主旨大意题。文章开头提到“Li Mei’s parents told her about the tradition (传统) of cleaning the house before the New Year.”，随后全文详细叙述了Li Mei亲身实践这一传统的过程，体现了对传统习俗的传承与劳动的快乐。选项A“关于践行一个美好的传统”能够高度概括文章的中心思想。故选A。 F 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题后面的词数要求）。 During a summer visit, young Eric asked his grandfather the secret to success.

The other, he planted outside in the garden, facing the weather and nature. “Which one will grow better?” Grandpa asked. Eric confidently chose the indoor plant, thinking safety was the most important. Four years later, Eric came to visit his grandfather again. Grandpa showed him the plants. The indoor plant was a small tree. But the outdoor plant was huge and strong with wide branches. Eric was very surprised. “It faced strong storms, sun, and wind,” Grandpa explained. “But those challenges made its roots grow deeper and stronger. It learned from difficulties.” Finally, Eric understood Grandpa’s lesson. Success doesn’t come from being perfectly safe, but from learning and growing through life’s challenges. 53.

B Last summer, I went to Hongcun, an ancient town in Anhui. It was a faraway place, and the moment I got there, I was amazed. The landscape was so beautiful! There were clear rivers running through the town, old houses with nice artworks on the walls, and a blue sky above. It truly took my breath away. In Hongcun, there were thousands of old houses. People there loved their homes. They wanted to keep the old look of the houses. So, they carefully protected the outside of the houses with silk curtains (帘子) at the windows and ancient towers. But inside, they made the houses comfortable. They added modern things like soft beds and clean bathrooms. A guide led me to a big square. People were getting together there. Some were eating delicious steamed chicken, and others were talking and laughing in the sun. “This is our sweet home,” the guide said. “We love it here because it has our history and our happy life.” From this trip, I learned that a sweet home is not just a place to live. It’s a place full of love, history, and good memories. Hongcun shows us how we can keep our old homes beautiful and make them comfortable at the same time. 39. What was the writer’s first impression (印象) when arriving in Hongcun? A. It was a very modern town. B. It was too far away and crowded. C. The local people were unfriendly. D. The landscape was amazingly beautiful. 40. What did people in Hongcun do to keep the old look of their houses? A. They got together in the big square to eat and talk. B. They built new houses with clean bathrooms and soft beds. C. They protected the exterior by hanging silk curtains at the windows and preserving the ancient towers D. They added modern things inside to make the houses comfortable. 41. What can we infer (推论) from the guide’s words, “This is our sweet home”? A. The guide wants the writer to move to Hongcun. B. The guide loves his hometown and enjoys life there. C. The old houses are not comfortable for people to live in. D. The people in Hongcun make a lot of money from tourists. C Have you met someone who kept talking and talking, and you couldn’t get them to stop? You don’t want to be impolite by telling them to shut up, but you really want to get out of the conversation. Here are some ways to help you. Use body language. While it may feel impolite, you could turn away, leave your headphones on, and avoid looking at his or her eyes, which will show that you don’t want to talk. This may save you from directly telling someone to stop talking later on. Keep working on whatever activity you are doing. Get up and move around. Be active and find little things to do instead of listening. Interrupt them as soon as you can. Saying things like “I’d like to add something” or “If I could interrupt you for just a minute” will often let someone know that they are talking too much. Lead the conversation. This is especially helpful when dealing with someone you often talk to. Let them know that you heard what they said and guide the conversation in a different direction. Mention that you don’t have a lot of time to talk. Expressions like “I would love to chat but I have to go to a movie right now” and “Today’s not a great day to talk. I have a lot of tasks” will make you easily end the conversation. Sometimes ending a conversation may not be so easy. Remember it is a skill to back out of a conversation without saying “You are boring. Shut up.” 42. What does the underlined word “Interrupt” mean? A. Refuse. B. Leave. C. Break. D. Accept. 43. Which of the following is the best way to make someone stop talking? A. Getting up and finding something else to do. B. Saying someone is boring directly. C. Looking at him or her and listening carefully. D. Leaving your headphones off and keep smiling. 44 What can we know according to the text? A. We can end a conversation easily. B.

D Nature is amazing! Take a close look at the world of insects, and you’ll find many unbelievable things. Think about butterflies, for example. They have beautiful, colourful wings and strong, fantastic flying skills. In summer, you can see them flying freely over flower gardens and wild fields. But do you know how butterflies become flying insects? It’s one of the amazing wonders of nature. In the beginning, female butterflies lay a small and colourful egg on a leaf or stem (茎) of a plant. It’s hard to believe that the egg will become something completely different in a few days. It turns into a walking insect. This insect is called a caterpillar (幼虫). It now has legs, eyes and a large body. A new life has begun. The caterpillar can eat, walk and see, but it is still not a butterfly. Soon, after growing big, the caterpillar makes a cover for itself. It covers itself in a protective blanket (保护层) and goes to sleep. This stage is known as the “pupa (蛹)” stage. After a period of time, the blanket breaks and a wet, weak butterfly appears. It now has six legs, a mouth, eyes and wings. Shortly, the wings fill with blood, and the beautiful, colourful butterfly spreads its wings and flies away. After a few weeks, this adult butterfly lays her eggs, and the cycle begins all over again. This is just one example of the wonders of nature. Look into the woods and mountains and see what you can find next. 46. What is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 1? A. Butterflies are a kind of insect. B. Butterflies are good at flying. C.

Instead of just giving advice, Grandpa bought two small plants. He planted one in a pot and kept it safe inside the house. The other, he planted outside in the garden, facing the weather and nature. “Which one will grow better?” Grandpa asked. Eric confidently chose the indoor plant, thinking safety was the most important. Four years later, Eric came to visit his grandfather again. Grandpa showed him the plants. The indoor plant was a small tree. But the outdoor plant was huge and strong with wide branches. Eric was very surprised. “It faced strong storms, sun, and wind,” Grandpa explained. “But those challenges made its roots grow deeper and stronger. It learned from difficulties.” Finally, Eric understood Grandpa’s lesson. Success doesn’t come from being perfectly safe, but from learning and growing through life’s challenges. 53.
