一、单项选择(共15小题;每小题1分,计15分)
在下列各题A、B、C、D四个选项中选择一个能填入题干空白处的最佳答案。
1.—What do you know about ________ event?
—It’s one of ________ China’s biggest sports events.
A.an; the B.the; the C.the; / D.an; a
【答案】C
【详解】句意:——你对这个活动了解多少?——这是中国最大的体育赛事之一。
第一空,此处event指对话双方都知晓的特定事件,表示特指,应用定冠词the;第二空,当形容词最高级前已有名词所有格修饰时,不需要再加定冠词the,此处用零冠词。
2.—It was very honest ________ you to return the wallet you found with all the money inside.
—Thanks. I just think it’s important ________ us to do the right thing.
A.of; for B.for; to C.of; to D.for; of
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——你把捡到的钱包归还回去,而且里面的钱也都还了,这真是太诚实了。——谢谢。我只是觉得对我们来说,做正确的事是很重要的。
句型“It is+形容词+of/for sb to do sth”来表示“某人做某事怎么样”,在这个句型中,如果形容词是描述人的性格、品质的,用介词“of”,如果形容词是描述事情的则用介词“for”。第一空,“honest”意思是“诚实的”,是描述人的品质的形容词,所以第一空应该用“of”;第二空,“important”意思是“重要的”,是描述事情的形容词,所以第二空应该用“for”。
3.—Did you ________ the package from Hefei, Anhui?
—Yes, but I didn’t ________ it because I didn’t order anything.
A.receive; accept B.accept; receive
C.receive; receive D.accept; accept
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——你收到来自安徽合肥的包裹了吗?——是的,但是我没有接受它,因为我没有订购任何东西。
receive收到,强调客观上收到;accept接受,强调主观上接受。第一空表示客观上收到包裹,用receive;第二空表示主观上不接受这个包裹,用accept。应填receive;accept。
4.I want to be a volunteer ________ I want to make a difference to the world.
A.because B.when C.so D.until
【答案】A
【详解】句意:我想成为一名志愿者,因为我想对世界有所改变。
考查连词辨析。because因为;when当……时;so所以;until直到。根据句意可知,后半句“我想对世界有所改变”是前半句“我想成为一名志愿者”的原因,因此应使用表示原因的连词because。故选A。
5.Why don’t we start a little early ________ we don’t have to hurry?
A.in order to B.so that C.even if D.because of
【答案】B
【详解】句意:我们为什么不早点出发,这样我们就不必匆忙了?
考查连词辨析。in order to为了(后接动词原形);so that以便,为了(引导目的状语从句);even if即使;because of因为(后接名词或短语)。根据“Why don’t we start a little early...we don’t have to hurry”可知前半句“早点出发”的目的是“不必匆忙”,应选用表示目的的连词,且后接从句,所以选so that。故选B。
6.Tim would like ________ for the sports meeting while I feel like ________ part in it.
A.to volunteer; taking B.volunteering; to take
C.to volunteer; to take D.volunteering; taking
【答案】A
【详解】句意:蒂姆想自愿参加运动会,而我想参加其中。
考查非谓语动词。would like to do sth.想要做某事,第一空用动词不定式to volunteer作宾语;feel like doing sth.想要做某事,第二空用动名词taking作宾语。故选A。
7.If you have ________ to share about the school trip, feel free to tell the class.
A.something B.anything C.everything D.nothing
【答案】B
【详解】句意:如果你有关于学校旅行的事情要分享,请随时告诉全班同学。
something某事;anything任何事;everything每件事;nothing没有事。根据“If you have...to share about the school trip,”可知,此处是if引导的条件状语从句,表示“任何事情”,强调“无论什么内容都可以”,应填anything。
8.—What kind of work do you do to help the elderly on weekends?
—I do ________ work like reading newspapers for them.
A.voluntary B.interesting C.difficult D.expensive
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——你周末做什么工作来帮助老人?——我做志愿工作,比如为他们读报纸。
考查形容词辨析。voluntary志愿的;interesting有趣的;difficult困难的;expensive昂贵的。根据问句中“help the elderly on weekends”可知,周末帮助老人通常是自愿的、无偿的,且后文举例“reading newspapers for them”也属于常见志愿服务内容,因此“voluntary”最符合语境。故选A。
9.China-chic (中国风潮) means a clever mix of traditional Chinese style and modern design. Its ________ shows growing cultural ________ in China.
A.population; respect B.pollution; circle
C.popularity; confidence D.position; manners
【答案】C

考查名词辨析。population人口,respect尊重;pollution污染,circle圆圈;popularity流行,confidence自信;position位置,manners礼貌。根据前文“国潮”的定义以及“shows growing cultural ...”可知,第一空应表示“流行/受欢迎”,第二空应表示“文化自信”,符合语境逻辑。故选C。

—Me too. My cousin Lily likes watching football games ________.
A.as well; as well B.as well; as well as C.as well as; as well as D.as well as; as well
【答案】D
【详解】句意:——很多女孩和男孩一样对世界杯感兴趣。你呢?——我也是。我表妹莉莉也喜欢看足球比赛。
考查短语辨析。as well也;as well as和……一样。根据“Many girls…the boys are interested in the World Cup.”可知第一空表示“和……一样”,用as well as;根据“Me too.”可知第二空表示“也”,位于句末,用as well。故选D。
11.We all thought ________ necessary for you to spend as much time as you could ________ English.
A.that; improving B.it is; to improve C.it; improve D.it was; improving
【答案】D
【详解】句意:我们都认为你尽可能多地花时间提高英语是必要的。
考查it作形式宾语及固定搭配。第一空,根据“We all thought…necessary for you to…”可知,此处表示我们都认为你尽可能多地花时间提高英语是必要的,应用it作形式宾语,结构为“主语+动词+it+for sb. to do sth.”,真正的宾语是动词不定式,此处也可理解为thought (过去式) 后是省略了that的宾语从句,宾语从句的句子结构是“It+is/was+for sb. to do sth.”,主句是一般过去时,故宾语从句中be动词应用was;第二空,“spend time (in) doing sth.”为固定搭配,表示“花费时间做某事”。故选D。
12.— How much is a ticket to Central Park?
—A one-way ticket ________ $40, and you can ________ another $20 for a round-trip.
A.costs; pay B.costs; spend C.pays; spend D.spends; pay
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——中央公园的门票多少钱?——单程票花费40美元,你可以再支付20美元买一张往返票。
考查动词辨析。costs花费(主语是物);pay支付(常与for连用);spend花费(主语是人)。第一空主语“A one-way ticket”是物,表示“花费多少钱”用costs;第二空主语“you”是人,表示“支付…(钱)买…”用pay…for。故选A。
13.I ________ China for three months and this is the first time I’ve tried on hanfu.
A.have gone to B.have been to C.have arrived in D.have been in
【答案】D
【详解】句意:我在中国已经待了三个月,这是我第一次尝试穿汉服。
考查现在完成时与延续性动词的用法。have gone to去了(未回);have been to去过(已回);have arrived in到达 (非延续性);have been in待在(延续性)。根据“for three months”可知,此处需用延续性动词表示持续状态,且“在中国”需用“in”。故选D。
14.—Doctor Song is ________ a patient with a serious heart ________ .
— He often does extra work. The hospital ________ him.
A.operating on; disease; takes pride in B.operation; illness; is proud of
C.operating; disease; is proud D.operate on; sickness; takes proud in
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——宋医生正在给一位患有严重心脏病的病人做手术。——他经常加班。医院以他为荣。
考查动词短语和固定搭配。第一空,operating on正在做手术;operation手术,名词;operating(缺少介词on);operate on(动词原形,不能接在is后)。根据语境“Doctor is...a patient”可知,此处表示“给病人做手术”,应用短语operate on,且is后需用现在分词operating构成进行时,故填operating on。第二空,disease疾病;illness疾病(多指不适状态);sickness生病(多指恶心或短期不适)。表示“心脏病”这一具体疾病,常用disease(疾病)。第三空,takes pride in以……为荣;is proud of以……为荣;is proud(缺少介词of);takes proud in搭配错误,应为take pride in。故选A。
15.—Thinking creatively and trying bravely are very important to young people.
—________ They’re valuable qualities.
A.It doesn’t matter. B.That sounds good. C.I can’t agree more. D.I don’t think so.
【答案】C
【详解】句意:——对年轻人来说,创造性思维和勇敢尝试是非常重要的。——我完全同意。它们是有价值的品质。
It doesn’t matter.没关系;That sounds good.那听起来不错;I can’t agree more.我完全同意;I don’t think so.我不这么认为。根据“They’re valuable qualities.”可知,认为创造性思维和勇敢尝试是有价值的品质,所以是同意对方的观点,应填I can’t agree more。

In a neighborhood, a service team of volunteers—“Shared Children (共享儿女)”—is getting popular. It works hard to help old people without children around to be happy.
The volunteers already made a big difference in the neighborhood. They have helped more than seventy old people these days. The volunteers learned about the old people’s needs in their life and gave them a helping hand.
At first, the neighborhood started a project to help some people in need in time. However, the neighborhood did not have enough workers to help so many old people. So, the idea of “Shared Children” came out.
The number of the volunteers in the team is more than 108 now. They help the old people buy things, take a walk with them and cook for them.
▲ Fan Fawen is a retired (退休的) train driver. He joined the volunteer team two years ago. He often helps to repair something in the old people’s homes, buys them fruit and vegetables and carries heavy things, like bags of rice and boxes. Liu Chunyan, 43, is also one of the volunteers. “Many old people now live alone and feel lonely, so we should help them and talk with them more often,” Liu says.
“More people now start to learn about the team. We believe that more people will join us in the future,” says Hao Guoying, a volunteer of the team.
34.Who do volunteers in the team of “Shared Children” help?
A.Old people with children around. B.Old people without children around.
C.Parents with over three children to look after. D.Children without parents around.
35.Which of the following can we put in “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 5?
A.People also help children do homework. B.The old people thank the volunteers a lot.
C.The volunteers are not all young people. D.More neighborhoods start to know about them.

A.Talking with them more often. B.Solving their health problems.
C.Providing enough food and money. D.Teaching necessary life skills.
37.What is the main purpose (目的) of the passage?
A.To explain why old people feel lonely. B.To show a volunteer team helping old people.
C.To discuss the problems of the neighborhood. D.To compare different volunteer groups.
【答案】34.B 35.C 36.A 37.B
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了在一个社区里,一个名为“共享儿女”的志愿者服务团队如何帮助身边无子女的老人,并讲述了团队成立的背景、规模、具体行动以及志愿者的心声。

C
Money can’t buy you happiness. Well, what if it could? Not by making it or spending it, but by giving it away.
In an experiment in Switzerland, researchers gave each of the 50 volunteers £20 every week for four weeks. Half of the volunteers were asked to spend the money on themselves and make a note of how they spent the money. But the researchers asked the other half to spend the money on another person.
After that, all 50 volunteers did the same task in a laboratory. They were asked to think of a person who they would like to give money to. Then they had to decide how much money, from £3 to £20, they wanted to give away. While the volunteers thought about this, the researchers studied their brain activities using an MRI machine.
The results showed two things. First, the 25 volunteers who gave their money away during the four weeks were more generous (慷慨的) and chose to give more money away in the laboratory task. Second, those same people were much happier than the people who once spent the money on themselves.
In the experiment, the volunteers were asked to give money away. But would you like to do this in your daily life? Can you really make yourself happy by giving? The answer is yes, but remember to start small. You can start by giving £1 to a homeless person. Gradually, you can try to change your habits so that you can save money to give away. For example, stop buying lunch every day and take a packed lunch to work or school. You can then save some money and give it to people in need.
Learning to donate money is all about changing the way you behave. It’s about living with less and being more generous. And this will make you happy.
38.What did the researchers ask the volunteers to decide in the laboratory?
A.Who needed their money most.
B.How they wanted to spend their money.
C.Whether they wanted to join in the experiment.
D.How much money they would like to give away.
39.What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A.Being a volunteer. B.Changing your habits.
C.Giving money away. D.Doing the experiment.
40.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Each volunteer got £20 from researchers every day for four weeks.
B.The volunteers felt unhappy after spending money on themselves.
C.The researchers used an MRI machine to study volunteers’ brain activities.
D.Learning to give money away doesn’t require changing our lifestyle.
41.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Money is not the key to happiness.
B.Giving money away can bring happiness.
C.Small acts of kindness can make a big difference.
D.Changing spending habits is important for a happy life.
【答案】38.D 39.C 40.C 41.B

On a cold winter night, two beagles, Pepper and Cooper, walked along a snowy road in Bethel, Ohio. They had no home and needed a safe, warm place to rest. Pepper, the female dog, was pregnant, and Cooper stayed close to protect her.
Gus Kiebel, a wildlife officer, was driving home when he saw the dogs in the snow. He noticed they wore collars with name tags. Gus stopped his truck and gently approached them. The dogs didn’t try to run away. He read their names and tried calling the number on their tags, but the snow made it hard to use his phone.
Gus decided to take the dogs into his truck to keep them warm. He called the number again, but the owner said he didn’t want the dogs anymore. Realizing they were abandoned, Gus called his wife, Katie. She told him to bring them home because they couldn’t leave the dogs outside in the storm.
That night, Gus and Katie gave the dogs food, water, and a warm bed on their porch. The two beagles stayed close to each other showing how much they cared for each other. Although Gus had always wanted beagles, the couple already had a family dog and couldn’t keep Pepper and Cooper.
The next day, Gus contacted a no-kill animal shelter. Katie brought the dogs there but made the staff promise to keep them together. She called often to check on them, glad to hear they were safe and cared for. A few days after Christmas, the shelter told her Pepper and Cooper had been adopted as a pair by a loving family. In the midst of a snowy winter, two abandoned dogs found a warm home, thanks to the kindness of strangers.
42.How did Gus realize Pepper and Cooper had been left behind?
A.They walked along the snowy road. B.Their tags’ phone number didn't work.
C.The owner refused to take them back. D.They didn’t try to run away from Gus.
43.Which is similar in meaning to the underlined word “adopted”?
A.Bought. B.Accepted. C.Treated. D.Moved.
44.What is the correct order of the story?
a. Gus dialed the number on the dogs’ tags. b. Katie asked the shelter to keep them together.
c. Gus brought the dogs inside his truck. d. The dogs were taken in by a kind family.
A.a-c-b-d B.c-a-b-d C.a-b-c-d D.c-b-a-d
45.What is the best title for the story?
A.A warm place in the snow B.A snowstorm and poor dogs
C.A helping hand in the cold D.Gus and the beagles’ journey
【答案】42.C 43.B 44.A 45.C
【导语】本文讲述了野生动物官员Gus和妻子在寒冷的冬夜暂时收留被遗弃的两只狗,最终通过动物收容所帮助它们找到新家的故事。
42.推理判断题。根据“He called the number again, but the owner said he didn’t want the dogs anymore.”可知,Gus给狗主人打电话,但狗主人说他不想要这两只狗了,这让格斯意识到它们被遗弃了。故选C。
43.词句猜测题。根据“the shelter told her Pepper and Cooper had been adopted as a pair by a loving family.”及“two abandoned dogs found warm home,”可知,两只被遗弃的狗找到了温暖的家,说明它们被人收养了,故推出划线部分adopted意为“收养”,与选项B意义相近。故选B。

In a neighborhood, a service team of volunteers—“Shared Children (共享儿女)”—is getting popular. It works hard to help old people without children around to be happy.
The volunteers already made a big difference in the neighborhood. They have helped more than seventy old people these days. The volunteers learned about the old people’s needs in their life and gave them a helping hand.
At first, the neighborhood started a project to help some people in need in time. However, the neighborhood did not have enough workers to help so many old people. So, the idea of “Shared Children” came out.
The number of the volunteers in the team is more than 108 now. They help the old people buy things, take a walk with them and cook for them.
▲ Fan Fawen is a retired (退休的) train driver. He joined the volunteer team two years ago. He often helps to repair something in the old people’s homes, buys them fruit and vegetables and carries heavy things, like bags of rice and boxes. Liu Chunyan, 43, is also one of the volunteers. “Many old people now live alone and feel lonely, so we should help them and talk with them more often,” Liu says.
“More people now start to learn about the team. We believe that more people will join us in the future,” says Hao Guoying, a volunteer of the team.
34.Who do volunteers in the team of “Shared Children” help?
A.Old people with children around. B.Old people without children around.
C.Parents with over three children to look after. D.Children without parents around.
35.Which of the following can we put in “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 5?
A.People also help children do homework. B.The old people thank the volunteers a lot.

36.What does Liu Chunyan think is important for helping old people?
A.Talking with them more often. B.Solving their health problems.
C.Providing enough food and money. D.Teaching necessary life skills.
37.What is the main purpose (目的) of the passage?
A.To explain why old people feel lonely. B.To show a volunteer team helping old people.
C.To discuss the problems of the neighborhood. D.To compare different volunteer groups.

Money can’t buy you happiness. Well, what if it could? Not by making it or spending it, but by giving it away.
In an experiment in Switzerland, researchers gave each of the 50 volunteers £20 every week for four weeks. Half of the volunteers were asked to spend the money on themselves and make a note of how they spent the money. But the researchers asked the other half to spend the money on another person.
After that, all 50 volunteers did the same task in a laboratory. They were asked to think of a person who they would like to give money to. Then they had to decide how much money, from £3 to £20, they wanted to give away. While the volunteers thought about this, the researchers studied their brain activities using an MRI machine.
The results showed two things. First, the 25 volunteers who gave their money away during the four weeks were more generous (慷慨的) and chose to give more money away in the laboratory task. Second, those same people were much happier than the people who once spent the money on themselves.
In the experiment, the volunteers were asked to give money away. But would you like to do this in your daily life? Can you really make yourself happy by giving? The answer is yes, but remember to start small. You can start by giving £1 to a homeless person. Gradually, you can try to change your habits so that you can save money to give away. For example, stop buying lunch every day and take a packed lunch to work or school. You can then save some money and give it to people in need.
Learning to donate money is all about changing the way you behave. It’s about living with less and being more generous. And this will make you happy.
38.What did the researchers ask the volunteers to decide in the laboratory?
A.Who needed their money most.
B.How they wanted to spend their money.
C.Whether they wanted to join in the experiment.
D.How much money they would like to give away.
39.What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A.Being a volunteer. B.Changing your habits.
C.Giving money away. D.Doing the experiment.
40.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Each volunteer got £20 from researchers every day for four weeks.
B.The volunteers felt unhappy after spending money on themselves.
C.The researchers used an MRI machine to study volunteers’ brain activities.
D.Learning to give money away doesn’t require changing our lifestyle.

On a cold winter night, two beagles, Pepper and Cooper, walked along a snowy road in Bethel, Ohio. They had no home and needed a safe, warm place to rest. Pepper, the female dog, was pregnant, and Cooper stayed close to protect her.
Gus Kiebel, a wildlife officer, was driving home when he saw the dogs in the snow. He noticed they wore collars with name tags. Gus stopped his truck and gently approached them. The dogs didn’t try to run away. He read their names and tried calling the number on their tags, but the snow made it hard to use his phone.
Gus decided to take the dogs into his truck to keep them warm. He called the number again, but the owner said he didn’t want the dogs anymore. Realizing they were abandoned, Gus called his wife, Katie. She told him to bring them home because they couldn’t leave the dogs outside in the storm.
That night, Gus and Katie gave the dogs food, water, and a warm bed on their porch. The two beagles stayed close to each other showing how much they cared for each other. Although Gus had always wanted beagles, the couple already had a family dog and couldn’t keep Pepper and Cooper.
The next day, Gus contacted a no-kill animal shelter. Katie brought the dogs there but made the staff promise to keep them together. She called often to check on them, glad to hear they were safe and cared for. A few days after Christmas, the shelter told her Pepper and Cooper had been adopted as a pair by a loving family. In the midst of a snowy winter, two abandoned dogs found a warm home, thanks to the kindness of strangers.
42.How did Gus realize Pepper and Cooper had been left behind?
A.They walked along the snowy road. B.Their tags’ phone number didn't work.
C.The owner refused to take them back. D.They didn’t try to run away from Gus.
43.Which is similar in meaning to the underlined word “adopted”?

In a neighborhood, a service team of volunteers—“Shared Children (共享儿女)”—is getting popular. It works hard to help old people without children around to be happy.
The volunteers already made a big difference in the neighborhood. They have helped more than seventy old people these days. The volunteers learned about the old people’s needs in their life and gave them a helping hand.
At first, the neighborhood started a project to help some people in need in time. However, the neighborhood did not have enough workers to help so many old people. So, the idea of “Shared Children” came out.
The number of the volunteers in the team is more than 108 now. They help the old people buy things, take a walk with them and cook for them.
▲ Fan Fawen is a retired (退休的) train driver. He joined the volunteer team two years ago. He often helps to repair something in the old people’s homes, buys them fruit and vegetables and carries heavy things, like bags of rice and boxes. Liu Chunyan, 43, is also one of the volunteers. “Many old people now live alone and feel lonely, so we should help them and talk with them more often,” Liu says.
“More people now start to learn about the team. We believe that more people will join us in the future,” says Hao Guoying, a volunteer of the team.
34.Who do volunteers in the team of “Shared Children” help?
A.Old people with children around. B.Old people without children around.
C.Parents with over three children to look after. D.Children without parents around.
35.Which of the following can we put in “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 5?
A.People also help children do homework. B.The old people thank the volunteers a lot.
C.The volunteers are not all young people. D.More neighborhoods start to know about them.
36.What does Liu Chunyan think is important for helping old people?
A.Talking with them more often. B.Solving their health problems.
C.Providing enough food and money. D.Teaching necessary life skills.
37.What is the main purpose (目的) of the passage?
A.To explain why old people feel lonely. B.To show a volunteer team helping old people.
C.To discuss the problems of the neighborhood. D.To compare different volunteer groups.
C
Money can’t buy you happiness. Well, what if it could? Not by making it or spending it, but by giving it away.
In an experiment in Switzerland, researchers gave each of the 50 volunteers £20 every week for four weeks. Half of the volunteers were asked to spend the money on themselves and make a note of how they spent the money. But the researchers asked the other half to spend the money on another person.
After that, all 50 volunteers did the same task in a laboratory. They were asked to think of a person who they would like to give money to. Then they had to decide how much money, from £3 to £20, they wanted to give away. While the volunteers thought about this, the researchers studied their brain activities using an MRI machine.
The results showed two things. First, the 25 volunteers who gave their money away during the four weeks were more generous (慷慨的) and chose to give more money away in the laboratory task. Second, those same people were much happier than the people who once spent the money on themselves.
In the experiment, the volunteers were asked to give money away. But would you like to do this in your daily life? Can you really make yourself happy by giving? The answer is yes, but remember to start small. You can start by giving £1 to a homeless person. Gradually, you can try to change your habits so that you can save money to give away. For example, stop buying lunch every day and take a packed lunch to work or school. You can then save some money and give it to people in need.
Learning to donate money is all about changing the way you behave. It’s about living with less and being more generous. And this will make you happy.
38.What did the researchers ask the volunteers to decide in the laboratory?
A.Who needed their money most.
B.How they wanted to spend their money.
C.Whether they wanted to join in the experiment.
D.How much money they would like to give away.
39.What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A.Being a volunteer. B.Changing your habits.
C.Giving money away. D.Doing the experiment.
40.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Each volunteer got £20 from researchers every day for four weeks.
B.The volunteers felt unhappy after spending money on themselves.
C.The researchers used an MRI machine to study volunteers’ brain activities.
D.Learning to give money away doesn’t require changing our lifestyle.
41.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Money is not the key to happiness.
B.Giving money away can bring happiness.
C.Small acts of kindness can make a big difference.
D.Changing spending habits is important for a happy life.

National Handicapped Day is on the third Sunday of every May. On 19 May, we held a charity show at Sunshine Theatre. It started at 7 p.m. and finished at 9 p.m. There were many songs, dances and dramas. Many people made a donation.
The aim of the charity show is to ask people to take care of disabled children and pay attention to special education. We hope more people help disabled children by providing food, clothes and a chance to study for them and doing more voluntary work for them. We hope to make the world a better place for them.
Finally, we’d like to thank all the people who have donated time, goods and materials for their help and support.
