In the 1980s, it started to spread to many places. In 2010, China named it as an alien invasive species (外来入侵物种). As an invasive species, there are few plants and animals to stop it. So, it spreads very fast and causes other plants around it to die. Chinese people call it “the flower of the devil”. It is now mostly spreading in Jiangsu, Hubei, Henan and Zhejiang provinces. If you see this flower on the street, please call 12345 to report it. Then, experts (专家) will come to kill it. Let’s look after our environment together! 26.

Most of my friends and family thought I was crazy, but only I knew why. Two years ago, I accidentally fell down a 12-meter waterfall and broke my pelvis. I went from using a wheelchair to using crutches, then to trying to walk a block, and finally walking miles. Physical activity became even more important in my life. So why not make it enjoyable? I’ve wanted to learn to skateboard since I was a kid, but most of my time and energy went into dancing. In my opinion, skating was actually very similar to dancing. For a long time, I tried to learn skating on my own. I had no idea what I was doing and always felt awkward when many strangers saw me skating or simply trying to keep my balance. That fear of being judged often stopped me from just getting out there for practice. One day, my friend Monica and I met some of the members of GRLSWIRL, a skateboarding club. They were so friendly that we wanted to be part of it. This club was amazing. Even though everyone there was better than me, they were happy to help and excited to see me overcome challenges. There, I gradually became more confident. For me, a big part of skating was overcoming my PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder). Falling is a huge part of skating, but because of that accident, it was really hard for me to overcome it. However, the more I learned from every little fall — allowing my body to understand that it was OK, and that I could drop and get up again — the less my PTSD took over. The more I skated, the better my body and mind felt. Although I started skating for therapy, I never imagined it would open up a new world of excitement and possibilities for me. 31. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2? A. The author didn’t spend much time dancing. B. The author used to be a good skateboarder. C. The author had a car accident two years ago. D. The author put in a lot of effort to walk again. 32. What does the underlined word “awkward” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. 无聊的 B. 震惊的 C. 尴尬的 D. 愤怒的 33. When did the author become confident? A. After she joined the club. B. After she got good at skateboarding. C. After she wrote a letter to her uncle. D. After she achieved good results in the game. 34. Why was it hard for the author to overcome falling while skating? A. Her doctor had wanted her not to fall. B. Falling would be laughed at by others. C. She didn’t want to hurt her leg again. D. The past experience left her with bad feelings. 35. What did the author think of skateboarding? A It would be her life work. B. It was a light on her road of life. C. It was something she had to do. D. It was the reason for her to get her life back. 【答案】31. D 32. C 33. A 34. D 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者在35岁生日时送给自己第一块滑板，回顾了两年前从12米瀑布坠落导致骨盆骨折的康复经历，通过学习滑板克服创伤后应激障碍，逐渐找回自信与生活热情，打开了充满兴奋与可能性的新世界的故事。 【31题详解】 第二段描述了作者从坐轮椅到使用拐杖，再到尝试走一个街区、最终能行走数英里的康复过程，体现出作者为重新行走付出了大量努力，对应D项。 A项错误：文中提到“most of my time and energy went into dancing”，说明作者在跳舞上花费了大量时间； B项错误：文中表明作者从小就想学滑板，此前并非优秀的滑板手； C项错误：作者是从瀑布坠落受伤，而非遭遇车祸。 【32题详解】 第三段提到作者不清楚自己在做什么，当许多陌生人看到自己滑板或努力保持平衡时，会感到“awkward”。结合语境，这种在他人面前表现生疏、笨拙的感受是“尴尬的”。 【33题详解】 第四段提到作者加入GRLSWIRL滑板俱乐部后，俱乐部成员友好且乐于帮助她，在那里她“gradually became more confident”，说明自信是在加入俱乐部后逐渐建立的。 【34题详解】 第五段明确指出作者因之前的坠落事故患有PTSD，摔倒是滑板的一部分，而过去的事故经历给她留下了糟糕的感受，因此克服摔倒的恐惧很困难。 【35题详解】 作者最初为了治疗开始滑板，却意外收获了充满兴奋与可能性的新世界，身心状态也越来越好，滑板如同照亮她人生道路的光，帮助她走出创伤、找回生活热情，对应选项B。A项“会成为她一生的事业”、C项“是她必须做的事”、D项“是她找回生活的原因”均不符合文中“never imagined it would open up a new world”的表述。 C Pollution inside homes and other buildings kills more than 4 million people each year．Many people die as a result of breathing smoke or from cooking over wood﹣powered of coal﹣powered stoves． One way to reduce the number of deaths is through cooking equipment powered by the sun．Crosby Menzies，a solar power expert in a South African company，described his latest solar cooker called the“Sol.4”，”It is four square meters of mirrors，six to eight meters in length．It is quite a large cooler．” The“Sol.4”works by reflecting （反射）light from the sun off large mirrors．The mirrors direct （把…对准）the light at a cooking pan．Then the light heats the pan with solar energy．Within two minutes，the pan is hot enough to cook sausages and onions．In just four minutes，water can be boiled．That is as fast as cooking with natural gas or electricity． The cooker is also much “friendlier” than other models because people do not have to stand in the sun to use it．And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal．Such individuals would be less likely to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke． At present，the cooker only works when the sun is shining．But engineers are working on a way to make it work without sunlight． Each cooker costs about $2000，which is a large amount of money for most Africans．To solve that problem，Crosby Menzies has crated a non﹣governmental organization called solar Cookers for Africa．It plans to raise money through donations to provide poor people with solar cooking equipment． 36. This passage is mainly about　　　　　　． A. solar cookers B. smoke pollution C. solar power experts D. breathing illnesses 37. The “Sol﹣4”is mainly used to　　　　　　． A. shorten the time of cooking B. reduce the cost of making cookers C. raise money through donations to help African people D. reduce the number of deaths caused by harmful smoke． 38. The underlined word “individuals“ most probably means“　　　　　　” A. cookers B. mirrors C. people D. experts 39. Which of the following about the “Sol﹣4”is TRUE？　　　　　　 A. It is six to eight square meters of mirrors． B. It can work in any weather condition now C. It can also heat the pan by lighting firewood D. It is more environment﹣friendly than other cookers． 40. From the passage，we can infer that　　　　　　． A. the “Sol﹣4”will be designed in a smaller size B. more African can use the solar cookers in the future C. the “Sol﹣4”is the first product of the south African company D. the African government will provide poor people with solar cookers． 【答案】36. A 37. D 38. C 39. D 40. B 【解析】 【分析】试题分析：短文主要介绍了一种可以减少污染的通过太阳能来烹饪的设备的工作原理。目前，炊具只是在阳光灿烂的时候工作，但工程师们正在努力工作，使它在没有阳光的情况下也能工作． 【36题详解】 主旨大意题．根据 One way to reduce the number of deaths is through cooking equipment powered by the sun．Crosby Menzies，a solar power expert in a South African company，described his latest solar cooker called the“Sol.4”，”联系全文内容可知本文是介绍一种新型的太阳能灶具，能够减少污染对身体的伤害，故答案是A． 【37题详解】 细节理解题．根据Many people die as a result of breathing smoke or from cooking over wood﹣powered of coal﹣powered stoves． One way to reduce the number of deaths is through cooking equipment powered by the sun．Crosby Menzies，a solar power expert in a South African company，described his latest solar cooker called the“Sol.4”可知Sol﹣4主要是用于减少因有害气体引起的死亡，故答案是D． 【38题详解】 词义猜测题．根据．And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal．人们可以不必收集柴火或花钱买煤做饭和后面的would be less likely to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke．不太可能有来自于有害烟雾引起的呼吸病．individuals作为主语，表示人不可能得病，故选C． 【39题详解】 细节理解题．根据The cooker is also much“friendlier”than other models because people do not have to stand in the sun to use it．And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal．Suchindividualswould be less likely to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke可知这种新灶具比其他灶具更环保，故选D． 【40题详解】 推理判断题．根据To solve that problem，Crosby Menzies has crated a non﹣governmental organization called solar Cookers for Africa．It plans to raise money through donations to provide poor people with solar cooking equipment．可以推断将来越来越多的非洲人会用上太阳能灶，故答案是B． 五、补全对话（本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） (Miss Yu is giving a class.

F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一段课堂情景对话，于老师在上课时发现学生的瓶子从课桌掉落，随后与学生就“收集瓶子制作玩具”的话题展开交流，老师对学生的创意表示肯定，并给出了收集瓶子的建议。 【41题详解】 老师先询问噪音来源，结合开头场景“some bottles drop out of a student’s desk”，学生需要解释噪音的起因，选项B“Some bottles dropped onto the floor.”，直接说明“瓶子掉在了地上”，完美回应噪音的原因，衔接上下文逻辑。 【42题详解】 学生用Because引导答句，说明老师的问题是询问收集瓶子的原因，选项D“Why do you collect bottles?”，符合答句的因果逻辑。 【43题详解】 老师听完学生的创意后，先对想法表示肯定，再顺势给出收集瓶子的建议，选项A“That’s an interesting idea.”，起到承接和过渡作用，既认可了学生的创意，也为后续建议做铺垫。 【44题详解】 学生用Yes回应，说明老师问题是一般疑问句，结合话题“用瓶子做玩具”，选项G“Have you already made some toys?”，是现在完成时的一般疑问句，询问“你已经做了一些玩具吗”，与答句“不少”的语义匹配。 【45题详解】 学生答应明天带一些过来，说明老师的问题是委婉请求展示做好的玩具，选项F“Can you show some to us one day?”，符合请求展示的逻辑，与学生的回应自然衔接。 六、完成句子（本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分） 46. 我刚刚浏览了梁晓声的书《母亲》。 I have just ________ ________ the book Mother by Liang Xiaosheng. 【答案】 ①. looked ②. through 【解析】 【详解】根据句意可知，此处表示“浏览”，用动词短语“look through”，且位于助动词have后，用过去分词构成现在完成时。故填looked；through。 47. 你将会按照工作量的多少获得报酬。 You will be paid ________ ________ the amount of work you do. 【答案】 ①. according ②. to 【解析】 【详解】表达“按照，根据”用介词短语according to。故答案为according to。 48. 那个女孩正在保护她的书不被雨水淋湿。 The girl is ________ her book ________ the showers. 【答案】 ①. protecting ②. from##against 【解析】 【详解】根据中英对照可知，protect…from/against…“保护……不被……”，固定搭配；句子时态为现在进行时，其结构为“be doing”，第一个空前为is，第一个空应用protecting。故填protecting；from/against。 49. 旧书不应该被扔掉，或许它们在你以后的生活中是有用的。 Old books shouldn’t be __________ __________, maybe they are useful in the near future. 【答案】 ①. thrown ②. away 【解析】 【详解】对比中英文可知，缺“扔掉”的翻译。“扔掉”对应的英文表达是“throw away”；又因为中文表达的是含有情态动词的被动，所以应用被动语态，其对应的结构为“主语+情态动词+be done (过去分词)”，“throw”的过去分词形式为“thrown”，故填thrown; away。 50. 不要这样做！你会为此付出代价的。 Don't do that! You will have to ________ what you have done. 【答案】pay for 【解析】 【详解】结合中英文提示可知，此处缺的是“为……付出代价”，英语表达为pat for，空格前有情态动词have to，后接动词原形，故填pay for。 七、任务型阅读（本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） 任务型阅读 How big is your brain and how long is your thumb (大拇指)? Recently, a UK study found that primates (灵长类动物) with longer thumbs are likely to have larger brains (大脑). Scientists from the University of Reading studied the brain size and thumb length of 94 primate kinds. They found that humans and our close relatives (亲缘物种) have longer thumbs than other primates. Interestingly, longer thumbs often come with bigger brains. We’ve always known that our big brains and thumbs set us apart (分开), but they didn’t develop separately, Joanna Baker from the team told the BBC. The study also showed that longer thumbs are not connected to the part that controls movement, as people often think. It is actually connected with the part of the brain that deals with thinking and feeling. But the study doesn’t prove (证明) that thumb length shows whether an animal uses tools. The Guardian pointed out that the link (连接) between thumb length and brain size is the same for all primates, tool users or not. 51. A UK study found that primates with longer thumbs are likely to ________. 52. Scientists from the University of Reading studied ________ primate kinds to research brain size and thumb length. 53. Joanna Baker said our big brains and thumbs didn’t ________. 54. Longer thumbs are connected with the part of the brain that deals with ________. 55. The study doesn’t prove that thumb length can tell if an animal ________. 【答案】51. have larger brains 52. 94 53. develop separately 54. thinking and feeling 55. uses tools 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇关于灵长类动物拇指长度与大脑关系的科普文章。 【51题详解】 根据“a UK study found that primates with longer thumbs are likely to have larger brains”可知，灵长类动物拇指更长，可能拥有更大的大脑。故填have larger brains。 【52题详解】 根据“Scientists from the University of Reading studied the brain size and thumb length of 94 primate kinds.”可知，雷丁大学的科学家们研究了94种灵长类动物的大脑大小和拇指长度。故填94。 【53题详解】 根据“We’ve always known that our big brains and thumbs set us apart, but they didn’t develop separately, Joanna Baker from the team told the BBC.”可知，Joanna Baker强调大脑和拇指不是独立发展的。故填develop separately。 【54题详解】 根据“It is actually connected with the part of the brain that deals with thinking and feeling.”可知，较长的拇指与大脑中负责“思考和情感”的部分相关。故填thinking and feeling。 【55题详解】 根据“But the study doesn’t prove that thumb length shows whether an animal uses tools.”可知，研究无法证明拇指长度能判断动物是否“使用工具”。故填uses tools。 八、综合填空（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） I do believe the power of letters.

Many places in China see the spreading of the Canada goldenrod (一枝黄花). It’s a bright yellow flower from North America. The flower is beautiful, but it is hurting China’s environment. According to the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the flower first came to China in 1935 as an ornamental plant (观赏植物). In the 1980s, it started to spread to many places. In 2010, China named it as an alien invasive species (外来入侵物种). As an invasive species, there are few plants and animals to stop it. So, it spreads very fast and causes other plants around it to die. Chinese people call it “the flower of the devil”. It is now mostly spreading in Jiangsu, Hubei, Henan and Zhejiang provinces. If you see this flower on the street, please call 12345 to report it. Then, experts (专家) will come to kill it. Let’s look after our environment together! 26. From Paragraph 2, we know that the Canada goldenrod is ________. A. the national flower of Canada B. spreading from China to North America C. beautiful with a bright yellow color D. hurting Canada’s environment 27. When did the flower first come to China? A. In 1935. B. In the 1980s. C. In 2010. D. Last year. 28. Why is the flower called “the flower of the devil”? A. Because it can eat other plants. B. Because it hurts China’s environment. C. Because it grows in a few provinces. D. Because it can even grow on the street. 29. What should we do if we find the flower? A. Kill it. B. Report it. C. Water it. D. Plant it. 30. The writer wrote this passage to tell us that ________. A. many flowers in China come from other countries B. we can help the environment get better with flowers C. it is not easy to grow plants in some provinces D. we should stop the spread of the Canada goldenrod in China B Skateboarding Changes My Life On my 35th birthday, I gave myself my first skateboard. Most of my friends and family thought I was crazy, but only I knew why. Two years ago, I accidentally fell down a 12-meter waterfall and broke my pelvis. I went from using a wheelchair to using crutches, then to trying to walk a block, and finally walking miles. Physical activity became even more important in my life. So why not make it enjoyable? I’ve wanted to learn to skateboard since I was a kid, but most of my time and energy went into dancing. In my opinion, skating was actually very similar to dancing. For a long time, I tried to learn skating on my own. I had no idea what I was doing and always felt awkward when many strangers saw me skating or simply trying to keep my balance. That fear of being judged often stopped me from just getting out there for practice. One day, my friend Monica and I met some of the members of GRLSWIRL, a skateboarding club. They were so friendly that we wanted to be part of it. This club was amazing. Even though everyone there was better than me, they were happy to help and excited to see me overcome challenges. There, I gradually became more confident. For me, a big part of skating was overcoming my PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder). Falling is a huge part of skating, but because of that accident, it was really hard for me to overcome it. However, the more I learned from every little fall — allowing my body to understand that it was OK, and that I could drop and get up again — the less my PTSD took over. The more I skated, the better my body and mind felt. Although I started skating for therapy, I never imagined it would open up a new world of excitement and possibilities for me. 31. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2? A. The author didn’t spend much time dancing. B. The author used to be a good skateboarder. C. The author had a car accident two years ago. D. The author put in a lot of effort to walk again. 32. What does the underlined word “awkward” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. 无聊的 B. 震惊的 C. 尴尬的 D. 愤怒的 33. When did the author become confident? A. After she joined the club. B. After she got good at skateboarding. C. After she wrote a letter to her uncle. D. After she achieved good results in the game. 34. Why was it hard for the author to overcome falling while skating? A. Her doctor had wanted her not to fall. B. Falling would be laughed at by others. C. She didn’t want to hurt her leg again. D. The past experience left her with bad feelings. 35. What did the author think of skateboarding? A. It would be her life work. B. It was a light on her road of life. C. It was something she had to do. D. It was the reason for her to get her life back. C Pollution inside homes and other buildings kills more than 4 million people each year．Many people die as a result of breathing smoke or from cooking over wood﹣powered of coal﹣powered stoves． One way to reduce the number of deaths is through cooking equipment powered by the sun．Crosby Menzies，a solar power expert in a South African company，described his latest solar cooker called the“Sol.4”，”It is four square meters of mirrors，six to eight meters in length．It is quite a large cooler．” The“Sol.4”works by reflecting （反射）light from the sun off large mirrors．The mirrors direct （把…对准）the light at a cooking pan．Then the light heats the pan with solar energy．Within two minutes，the pan is hot enough to cook sausages and onions．In just four minutes，water can be boiled．That is as fast as cooking with natural gas or electricity． The cooker is also much “friendlier” than other models because people do not have to stand in the sun to use it．And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal．Such individuals would be less likely to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke． At present，the cooker only works when the sun is shining．But engineers are working on a way to make it work without sunlight． Each cooker costs about $2000，which is a large amount of money for most Africans．To solve that problem，Crosby Menzies has crated a non﹣governmental organization called solar Cookers for Africa．It plans to raise money through donations to provide poor people with solar cooking equipment． 36. This passage is mainly about　　　　　　． A. solar cookers B. smoke pollution C. solar power experts D. breathing illnesses 37. The “Sol﹣4”is mainly used to　　　　　　． A. shorten the time of cooking B. reduce the cost of making cookers C. raise money through donations to help African people D. reduce the number of deaths caused by harmful smoke． 38. The underlined word “individuals“ most probably means“　　　　　　” A. cookers B. mirrors C. people D. experts 39. Which of the following about the “Sol﹣4”is TRUE？　　　　　　 A. It is six to eight square meters of mirrors． B. It can work in any weather condition now C. It can also heat the pan by lighting firewood D. It is more environment﹣friendly than other cookers． 40. From the passage，we can infer that　　　　　　． A. the “Sol﹣4”will be designed in a smaller size B more African can use the solar cookers in the future C the “Sol﹣4”is the first product of the south African company D. the African government will provide poor people with solar cookers． 五、补全对话（本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） (Miss Yu is giving a class.
