He goes to the same school as you. A．believe B．trust C．wonder D．know 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——我想知道这所新学校是否漂亮。——你可以问问你的哥哥。他和你上同一所学校。 believe相信；trust信任；wonder想知道；know知道。根据“You may ask your elder brother. He goes to the same school as you.”可知，说话人并不确定新学校是否漂亮，需要询问哥哥，wonder符合语境，表达“想知道”的含义。 2．My father always listens to the weather _________ before he goes to work every morning. A．news B．talk C．forecast D．story 【答案】C 【详解】句意：我的父亲每天早上上班前总是听天气预报。 news新闻；talk谈话、演讲；forecast预报；story故事。根据“weather”和“before he goes to work”可知，父亲听的是与天气相关的预报，以决定出行前的准备，应填forecast。 3．The company starts its livestreaming (直播) room because it’s a great way to ______ buyers. A．manage B．follow C．attract D．show 【答案】C 【详解】句意：这家公司开设了自己的直播间，因为这是吸引买家的好方法。 manage管理；follow跟随；attract吸引；show展示。结合常识可知，公司开办直播间的目的是吸引消费者来购买产品，只有attract符合语义要求。 4．My mother said, “You must finish your dinner.” → My mother said that I ________ finish ________ dinner. A．must; your B．had to; my C．must; my 【答案】B 【详解】句意：我妈妈说：“你必须吃完你的晚餐。”→ 我妈妈说我必须吃完我的晚餐。 考查直接引语和间接引语的转换。must必须；had to不得不，必须；your你的；my我的。在间接引语中，当主句为过去时态时，直接引语中的must通常变为had to，且第一人称和第二人称代词需根据语境调整，此处“you”变为“I”，“your”变为“my”。故选B。 5．He said, “I’m afraid of dogs.” The indirect speech is: He said ________ afraid of dogs. A．I’m B．he is C．he was D．I was 【答案】C 【详解】句意：他说：“我怕狗。”间接引语是：他说他怕狗。 根据主句谓语动词“said”为过去式，从句时态需遵循“主句过去时，从句过去时”原则，原直接引语中的“am”要变为“was”；同时直接引语中的主语“I”需指代主句主语“He”，要改为“he”，因此应填he was。 6．My grandpa said to my grandma, “There are two passports in it.” The indirect speech is: My grandpa said ________ two passports in it. A．there are B．there were C．there is D．there was 【答案】B 【详解】句意：我爷爷对我奶奶说：“里面有两本护照。”间接引语是：我爷爷说里面有两本护照。 句子是there be句型，主语“two passports”是复数，be动词用are或were，排除选项C和D；主句谓语动词said为一般过去时，宾语从句的时态需相应调整为过去时态；原句There are为一般现在时，变为间接引语时应改为一般过去时There were。 7．“Do you know where she lives?” he asked. → He asked ________. A．if I knew where she lived B．if I know where she lives C．if I knew where did she live 【答案】A 【详解】句意：“你知道她住在哪里吗？”他问道。→他问我是否知道她住在哪里。 考查间接引语。原句为一般疑问句的直接引语，转换为间接引语时需用if/whether引导，意为“是否”，且主句动词“asked”为过去时，从句时态需相应由一般现在时调整为一般过去时，know的过去式为knew，同时从句语序需用陈述语序。故选A。 8．“I bought this book yesterday,” Jack said. → Jack said that ________ bought ________ book the day before. A．he had; this B．he had; that C．he bought; that 【答案】B 【详解】句意：“我昨天买了这本书，”杰克说。→ 杰克说他前一天买了那本书。 考查直接引语变间接引语时的时态和人称/指示代词变化。直接引语中的“I”变为间接引语中的“he”；“yesterday”变为“the day before”，因此时态需从一般过去时bought改为过去完成时had bought；“this book”在间接引语中应改为“that book”。故选B。 9．“I can speak three languages,” she said. → She said that she ________ three languages. A．can speak B．could speak C．can spoke 【答案】B 【详解】句意：“我会说三种语言，”她说。→她说她会说三种语言。 考查宾语从句的时态呼应。can speak会说，一般现在时；could speak会说，一般过去时；can spoke错误表达，情态动词后应用动词原形。直接引语为一般现在时（can speak），在变为间接引语时，若主句谓语动词为过去时（said），从句谓语动词时态需相应改变，即can变为could，speak保持原形。故选B。 10．—Is that your phone ringing, Julie? —Yes. ________. Tell me about your sleeping problem. Is it getting better? A．It is important B．I agree C．It can wait D．I hope so 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——朱莉，那是你的手机在响吗？——是的。这事可以等一下。跟我说说你的睡眠问题吧，好些了吗？ It is important这很重要；I agree我同意；It can wait这事可以等一下；I hope so我希望如此。根据后句“Tell me about your sleeping problem.”可知，说话者选择先不接电话，继续聊天，说明电话“可以等一等”，应填It can wait。 二、完形填空(共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分) 阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 China is a great country with more than 5,000 years of history.

Zhuang and Yao people in Guangxi built these terraces. It took them hundreds of years, from the Yuan Dynasty to the early Qing Dynasty. Reaching as far as the eye can see, these terraces cover tall mountains. So why did these people turn the mountains into terraces? Firstly, there are few large, flat(平坦的) areas of land here. Building the terraces meant they would have more fields to grow rice. Secondly, the terraces help hold rainwater and stop the soil from going away. People have worked in harmony(和谐) with nature to make these terraces. The terraces are in perfect shapes, with hundreds of waterways. During the rainy season, waterways help the rainwater go down the mountains and into the terraces. The sun heats the water and turns it into vapour(水蒸气). This forms clouds and then rain falls down onto the mountain terraces once again. Although modern tools can help produce more rice, these terraces still mean a lot to the local people. People still use ancient farming ways to keep the terraces, because these are their important traditions. Today, thousands of visitors come to enjoy this great wonder made by people and nature together. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 21．How does the writer introduce the Longji Rice Terraces in Paragraph 1?
