On Thursday, she missed her piano lesson. On Friday. her mum worked late so she had to stay at school for one more hour! She went home and said to her mum, “My whole week was bad. And those bad things still stay in my mind. Why do I only remember something bad? There must be something wrong with me!” Mum smiled and said, “My girl! Don’t be angry with yourself. Everyone feels like that sometimes. Our mind remembers bad things because it wants to keep us safe. Bad feelings are not easy to leave. You need some practice to change your mind.” “What should I do?” Nora asked. “Take a few deep breaths and try to think about something happy,” Mum said. Nora took a few deep breaths as Mum told her to and tried to think of beautiful flowers and the blue sky. “Wow!” said Nora. “It’s quite easy to change my mind!” The next week, while Nora was walking to school, she knocked on a tree and fell over. She felt her face getting hot. She was going to get angry again. Just at the moment, she remembered Mum’s words and the mind-changing power! She took a deep breath and tried to feel the warm sun on her face. It worked! It really worked! She felt much better! “Well, I fell over,” she said, “But I also get to play outside, climb trees, and help my dad bake bread! Life is not that bad!” Then she smiled because she found the secret of being happy. 26．What did Nora break on Monday? A．Her piano. B．Her skirt. C．Her watch.

B It was half past seven on Monday morning: time to get ready for school. Jay Stone rolled out of bed. He did a couple of quick wake-up exercises and then he went over to his mirror (镜子) and looked at himself. “Not bad, Stone, not bad,” he said to himself and smiled. Maybe he wasn’t ready for Hollywood, but with his dark brown eyes and his thick brown hair, he had the looks that turned girls’ heads. He moved closer to the mirror and smiled, checking his teeth. “Perfect,” he thought. “Good enough for a toothpaste ad.” As his eyes moved down to his strong arms, he smiled again. The hours he spent in the gym and doing sit-ups have paid off. But suddenly, the smile froze. His eyes moved from the upper part of his body down to his legs. His legs were short. Not just short, but far too short for his body. He had the upper body of a six-footer, but because of his legs he was much less than six feet! Six inches less! Sitting, he was as tall as almost anyone. Standing, he had to look up at most of the boys and even many of the girls. Why didn’t his legs grow with the rest of his body? He was one of the shortest boys in his class. He was the shortest in his own family, he was even shorter than his “little” sister—by three inches! Where did his legs come from? He certainly didn’t get them from his parents. They were both quite tall. Looking through old family photos, he found the answer. It was his grandfather on his mother’s side. His short legs were a gift from Grandpa Tuttle. Thanks a lot, Grandpa! Of course, the kids at school all noticed Jay’s short legs and they had a nickname (外号) for him: Stubs! Almost no one called him by his real name; they all called him Stubs. Stubs Stone, Jay didn’t like his nickname, but he had to accept it. He had no choice. But Jay couldn’t see in the mirror what his legs could do. They were quick and strong. He was the youngest player on the Brewer High football team. He could run faster than anyone else in the team and, like a rabbit, he kept going and going. Even at basketball, where the other players were much taller than him, they were still afraid of him because of his speed. Jay shook his head. “Stubs, Stubs Stone, the kid with stubby legs. Yeah, that’s me,” he said to himself with a little smile. Suddenly, he heard his mother’s voice. “Jay! It’s breakfast time!” 31．What did Jay do after he got up on the Monday morning? A．He did some housework. B．He took some family photos. C．He watched TV for some time. D．He did some wake-up exercises. 32．What can we learn about Jay in paragraphs 2—4? A．He was satisfied with his looks. B．He wanted to be a film actor. C．He once played a role in an ad. D．He found it useless to do sit-ups. 33．What does the underlined word “froze” probably mean in paragraph 5? A．Spread. B．Stopped. C．Continued. D．Returned. 34．Which of the following best describes Jay? A．Strict and serious. B．Clever and helpful. C．Funny and confident. D．Patient and hard-working. 35．What does the writer mainly want to tell in the passage?

C Hundreds of people attended the premiere (首映) of the movie My People, My Country at a Los Angeles cinema on Sept. 30. Waving Chinese flags in their hands, audiences sang My People, My Country together at the start of the film, its theme song that serves as a thread throughout (贯穿) the movie The song is a patriotic (爱国的) Chinese classic, known to every family. It was first sung by singer Li Guyi in 1985. It was reworked for the movie by pop singer Faye Wong. Made up of seven short stories from seven directors, led by Chen Kaige, the film draws on the nation’s greatest technological and cultural achievements starting with the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949. Yet the film does not focus on the historical moments themselves, but rather shows events through the eyes of ordinary people who worked for them and were influenced by them. The short story The Guiding Star, for example, follows a pair of brothers who saw the landing of the capsule of the Shenzhou XI manned spacecraft on Nov. 18, 2016 in Inner Mongolia and who were filled with pride and hope at that moment. “If a person encounters a historical opportunity to be changed, the inspiring power generated is unbelievable,” Chen told China.org.cn. “In my story, the landing of Shenzhou XI changed the lives of two teenagers, changed their destiny and allowed them to gain new hope.” In another short story, Going Home, Simon Yam plays a clock repairer who witnessed the return of Hong Kong from British rule to China in 1997. The actor himself has experienced the power of hope. “On the day of Hong Kong’s return, I felt it wasn’t just a return to the motherland, but the return of hearts,” he told China.org.cn. “When the flag was raised, I felt like, ‘We are home. We feel secured and assured’.” The film certainly struck a patriotic chord with many. In a survey ranking audience satisfaction, My People, My Country came in first among 267 domestic films released since 2015. The survey was done by the China Film Art Research Center. 36．When audiences sang My People, My Country together at the start of the film, they _________. A．sat in the theatre B．waved Chinese flags in their hands C．stood along the road D．hugged together and jumped excitedly 37．How many directors directed the movie My People, My Country? A．seven B．six C．only one D．two 38．What changed the lives of the two teenagers in the story The Guiding Star? A．The landing of Shenzhou XI B．The founding of the People’s Republic of China C．The return of Hong Kong D．The raising of the national flag 39．The clock repairer felt like he was home when_________. A．he saw the landing of Shenzhou XI on Nov. 18, 2016 B．he experienced the founding of the PRC in Oct. 1949 C．he first sang the song My People, My Country D．the national flag was raised in Hong Kong in 1997 40．Where can you read this article? A．In a history book B．In a travel magazine C．In a newspaper D．In an advertisement D Do you not see the Yellow River come from the sky, rushing into the sea and never returning? This poem describes a very beautiful scene of the Yellow River. The Yellow River is the cradle of China’s civilization (中华文明的摇篮). It’s in northern China. It runs through nine provinces from west to east. It looks like the Chinese character “几”. It is the second longest river in China, and the fifth longest in the world. The Yellow River is also called the “mother river of China”. So flood (洪水) control and prevention have always been the key to the happy lives of people. Now, scientists can better solve these problems by giving the river a digital (数字) twin. The Yellow River’s digital twin uses new technologies such as big data (数据), AI and Internet of things to collect and send the information to the control center. According to the information, a 3D model of the river is shown on the computer screen, and it reflects the real conditions of the Yellow River. It’s like the Yellow River has a twin. One big success in the Yellow River’s protection is “smart stones”. They are put in important places along the river to record the movement of the river. As soon as smart stones feel the unusual movement of the river, they’ll send an alarm to the control center at once. In this way, the government can take action to protect the Yellow River in time. And in the sky, drones (无人机) are flying to survey the flood prevention projects. Thanks to the drones, scientists can get the information about the Yellow River in time. Under the water and up in the sky, intelligent devices (设备) are helping to protect the Yellow River. In the future, we’ll try our best to create better ways for the mother river’s protection. 41．According to the map, the “sea” in Paragraph 1 refers to _________. A．the Yellow Sea B．the Bohai Sea C．the South China Sea D．the East China Sea 42．How does the writer introduce the Yellow River in Paragraph 2? A．By listing numbers. B．By telling a story. C．By comparing opinions. D．By asking questions. 43．The intelligent devices are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT _________. A．drones B．smart stones C．intelligent cars D．a digital twin 44．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A．The Yellow River runs through nine provinces. B．The digital twin only uses big data to make a 3D model. C．Smart stones can feel the unusual movement of the river. D．Drones help to get the information about the Yellow River. 45．What could be the best title for the passage? A．The Location of the Yellow River B．Beautiful Scenes of the Yellow River C．A Poem of Praising the Yellow River D．New Ways of Protecting the Yellow River 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题（满分55分） 四、任务型阅读 （共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面的短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，每个空格只填一个单词，并把答案写在答题卡指定的位置。 Food waste is not just a problem at the dinner table, but a big problem all over the world. Serious losses of food, happen from farmers’ fields to customers’ fridges. What’s worse, pollution and natural disasters may cause food shortage. In developing countries, forty percent of food waste happens during harvesting and processing (加工). Because of this, farmers making little money are trapped in a cycle of poverty. They are also short of rapid transportation and refrigeration (冷藏), so a large number of crops may go bad before they reach the market. Few farmers can afford industrial-sized fridges to keep their products in good conditions. Food waste is also discovered in developed countries. More than forty percent of food waste happens during the process of selling and buying. Shockingly, this amount reaches near the yearly food production in some part of Africa. In many cases, the vegetables and fruit are thrown away because they look “ugly”, falling short of industry standards. Polluting and destroying environment do harm to producing food. A few countries are reducing natural areas for growing food crops and raising livestock (牲畜). Most surprisingly, in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest, 800 million trees in the past six years have been cut down to make beef cattle farms. Also, fish farms still create a great deal of pollution as well as diseases. At present, it seems that food production doesn’t reduce, but it may influence all the living things on the earth in the future. Natural disasters like droughts and storms can destroy a whole year’s crop for an unlucky farmer. Climate change will make such events that were previously thought of as “once in a hundred years” happen more and more often. This means that we’ll need more resources to produce the same amount of food. Food waste is harmful to humans, as well as other life on the earth. It’s not only the problem on customers’ dinner table, but also an international problem that must be dealt with by the governments. Food problems •Food is lost 46 from fields to fridges. •Food shortage is caused by pollution and natural disasters. 47 of food waste in different countries *In developing countries• Some farmers are 48 all the time because of the food waste. •Crops may go bad because they can’t be transported 49 . •Products can’t be kept in good conditions because of the limited refrigeration. *In developed countries• In the process of selling and buying, 50 40% of food waste happens. The amount is almost the food production in some part of Africa in a year. •People throw the vegetables and fruit away 51 they look nice and meet standards. Bad 52 on producing food *Polluting and destroying environment• Some natural areas are 53 to grow food crops and raise livestock. •Pollution, as well as diseases, is created by fish farms. Conclusion Natural disasters• A whole year’s crop can be destroyed by natural disasters. •Natural disasters happen more often, not "once in a 54 "in the past. •More resources are needed to produce the same amount of food. Food waste is harmful to all of life on the earth. It’s a problem which should be solved by 55 customers and the governments. 五、语篇填空 （共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面的短文，在空白处填入适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。有提示词的空格不限一词，无提示词的空格限填一词。 When it comes to Yuan Longping, we will think of him as the “Father of Hybrid Rice”.

A．something B．anything C．nothing D．everything 【答案】D 【详解】句意：当然，俄乌战争谁获胜很重要，但是它不是一切。 考查代词辨析。something一些事；anything任何事；nothing没什么；everything一切。but表转折，表示获胜固然重要，但它并不是一切。故选D。 2．—What is special about ants, Jack? —Well, I know that they breathe ________ the holes on both sides of their body. A．over B．across C．through D．against 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——杰克，蚂蚁有什么特别之处呢？——嗯，我知道它们是通过身体两侧的孔呼吸的。 考查介词辨析。over从一边到另一边（通常用于描述翻山越岭、跨越篱笆等场景）；across穿过（表面）；through通过（内部或贯穿）；against反对，倚着。根据“I know that they breathe...the holes on both sides of their body”和常识可知，蚂蚁通过身体两侧的孔呼吸，强调“通过”孔洞内部。故选C。 3．新情景—Lily, how is Daniel’s plan for going hiking going on? —I’m not sure.

We ________ our tent near a lake. A．put up B．made up C．took up D．woke up 【答案】A 【详解】句意：我们班上星期天去露营了。我们在湖边搭起帐篷。 考查动词短语。put up搭建；made up编造；took up占据；woke up醒来。根据“our tent near a lake”可知是在湖边搭建帐篷。故选A。 5．________ the whole of this article ________ any part of it will be published unless the writer agrees.

I have broken your glass. —________! I don’t like it anyway.

Jay Stone rolled out of bed. He did a couple of quick wake-up exercises and then he went over to his mirror (镜子) and looked at himself. “Not bad, Stone, not bad,” he said to himself and smiled. Maybe he wasn’t ready for Hollywood, but with his dark brown eyes and his thick brown hair, he had the looks that turned girls’ heads. He moved closer to the mirror and smiled, checking his teeth. “Perfect,” he thought. “Good enough for a toothpaste ad.” As his eyes moved down to his strong arms, he smiled again. The hours he spent in the gym and doing sit-ups have paid off. But suddenly, the smile froze. His eyes moved from the upper part of his body down to his legs. His legs were short. Not just short, but far too short for his body. He had the upper body of a six-footer, but because of his legs he was much less than six feet! Six inches less! Sitting, he was as tall as almost anyone. Standing, he had to look up at most of the boys and even many of the girls. Why didn’t his legs grow with the rest of his body? He was one of the shortest boys in his class. He was the shortest in his own family, he was even shorter than his “little” sister—by three inches! Where did his legs come from? He certainly didn’t get them from his parents. They were both quite tall. Looking through old family photos, he found the answer. It was his grandfather on his mother’s side. His short legs were a gift from Grandpa Tuttle. Thanks a lot, Grandpa! Of course, the kids at school all noticed Jay’s short legs and they had a nickname (外号) for him: Stubs! Almost no one called him by his real name; they all called him Stubs. Stubs Stone, Jay didn’t like his nickname, but he had to accept it. He had no choice. But Jay couldn’t see in the mirror what his legs could do. They were quick and strong. He was the youngest player on the Brewer High football team. He could run faster than anyone else in the team and, like a rabbit, he kept going and going. Even at basketball, where the other players were much taller than him, they were still afraid of him because of his speed. Jay shook his head. “Stubs, Stubs Stone, the kid with stubby legs. Yeah, that’s me,” he said to himself with a little smile. Suddenly, he heard his mother’s voice. “Jay! It’s breakfast time!” 31．What did Jay do after he got up on the Monday morning?

Waving Chinese flags in their hands, audiences sang My People, My Country together at the start of the film, its theme song that serves as a thread throughout (贯穿) the movie The song is a patriotic (爱国的) Chinese classic, known to every family. It was first sung by singer Li Guyi in 1985. It was reworked for the movie by pop singer Faye Wong. Made up of seven short stories from seven directors, led by Chen Kaige, the film draws on the nation’s greatest technological and cultural achievements starting with the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949. Yet the film does not focus on the historical moments themselves, but rather shows events through the eyes of ordinary people who worked for them and were influenced by them. The short story The Guiding Star, for example, follows a pair of brothers who saw the landing of the capsule of the Shenzhou XI manned spacecraft on Nov. 18, 2016 in Inner Mongolia and who were filled with pride and hope at that moment. “If a person encounters a historical opportunity to be changed, the inspiring power generated is unbelievable,” Chen told China.org.cn. “In my story, the landing of Shenzhou XI changed the lives of two teenagers, changed their destiny and allowed them to gain new hope.” In another short story, Going Home, Simon Yam plays a clock repairer who witnessed the return of Hong Kong from British rule to China in 1997. The actor himself has experienced the power of hope. “On the day of Hong Kong’s return, I felt it wasn’t just a return to the motherland, but the return of hearts,” he told China.org.cn. “When the flag was raised, I felt like, ‘We are home. We feel secured and assured’.” The film certainly struck a patriotic chord with many. In a survey ranking audience satisfaction, My People, My Country came in first among 267 domestic films released since 2015. The survey was done by the China Film Art Research Center. 36．When audiences sang My People, My Country together at the start of the film, they _________.

A．he saw the landing of Shenzhou XI on Nov. 18, 2016 B．he experienced the founding of the PRC in Oct. 1949 C．he first sang the song My People, My Country D．the national flag was raised in Hong Kong in 1997 40．Where can you read this article? A．In a history book B．In a travel magazine C．In a newspaper D．In an advertisement 【答案】36．B 37．A 38．A 39．D 40．C 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲了围绕电影《我和我的祖国》，介绍了其洛杉矶首映场景、主题曲背景、七位导演打造的以普通人视角展现国家重大成就的七个短篇故事，以及它在观众满意度调查中的优异表现。 36．细节理解题。根据“Waving Chinese flags in their hands, audiences sang My People, My Country together at the start of the film”可知，观众在电影开头一起唱《我和我的祖国》时手里挥舞着中国国旗。故选B。 37．细节理解题。根据“Made up of seven short stories from seven directors, led by Chen Kaige”可知，这部电影由七位导演执导。故选A。 38．细节理解题。根据“In my story, the landing of Shenzhou XI changed the lives of two teenagers”可知，神舟十一号的着陆改变了《白昼流星》故事中两位青少年的生活。故选A。 39．细节理解题。根据“When the flag was raised, I felt like, ‘We are home.

This poem describes a very beautiful scene of the Yellow River. The Yellow River is the cradle of China’s civilization (中华文明的摇篮). It’s in northern China. It runs through nine provinces from west to east. It looks like the Chinese character “几”. It is the second longest river in China, and the fifth longest in the world. The Yellow River is also called the “mother river of China”. So flood (洪水) control and prevention have always been the key to the happy lives of people. Now, scientists can better solve these problems by giving the river a digital (数字) twin. The Yellow River’s digital twin uses new technologies such as big data (数据), AI and Internet of things to collect and send the information to the control center. According to the information, a 3D model of the river is shown on the computer screen, and it reflects the real conditions of the Yellow River. It’s like the Yellow River has a twin. One big success in the Yellow River’s protection is “smart stones”. They are put in important places along the river to record the movement of the river. As soon as smart stones feel the unusual movement of the river, they’ll send an alarm to the control center at once. In this way, the government can take action to protect the Yellow River in time. And in the sky, drones (无人机) are flying to survey the flood prevention projects. Thanks to the drones, scientists can get the information about the Yellow River in time. Under the water and up in the sky, intelligent devices (设备) are helping to protect the Yellow River. In the future, we’ll try our best to create better ways for the mother river’s protection. 41．According to the map, the “sea” in Paragraph 1 refers to _________. A．the Yellow Sea B．the Bohai Sea C．the South China Sea D．the East China Sea 42．How does the writer introduce the Yellow River in Paragraph 2? A．By listing numbers. B．By telling a story. C．By comparing opinions. D．By asking questions. 43．The intelligent devices are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT _________. A．drones B．smart stones C．intelligent cars D．a digital twin 44．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A．The Yellow River runs through nine provinces. B．The digital twin only uses big data to make a 3D model. C．Smart stones can feel the unusual movement of the river. D．Drones help to get the information about the Yellow River. 45．What could be the best title for the passage? A．The Location of the Yellow River B．Beautiful Scenes of the Yellow River C．A Poem of Praising the Yellow River D．New Ways of Protecting the Yellow River 【答案】41．B 42．A 43．C 44．B 45．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了黄河作为中华文明的摇篮和中国的母亲河，其保护工作的重要性以及科学家们采用的新技术，如数字双胞胎、智能石头和无人机等，来更好地保护黄河。 41．推理判断题。根据“It runs through nine provinces from west to east. It looks like the Chinese character ‘几’. It is the second longest river in China, and the fifth longest in the world.”以及地理常识可知，黄河注入渤海，所以第一段中的“sea”指的是渤海。故选B。 42．细节理解题。根据“It runs through nine provinces from west to east. It looks like the Chinese character ‘几’. It is the second longest river in China, and the fifth longest in the world.”可知，作者在第二段通过列举数字来介绍黄河。故选A。 43．细节理解题。根据“Now, scientists can better solve these problems by giving the river a digital (数字) twin.”、“One big success in the Yellow River’s protection is ‘smart stones’.”以及“And in the sky, drones (无人机) are flying to survey the flood prevention projects.”可知，文中提到的智能设备包括数字双胞胎、智能石头和无人机，没有提到智能汽车。故选C。 44．细节理解题。根据“The Yellow River’s digital twin uses new technologies such as big data (数据), AI and Internet of things to collect and send the information to the control center. According to the information, a 3D model of the river is shown on the computer screen, and it reflects the real conditions of the Yellow River.”可知，数字双胞胎不仅使用大数据，还使用人工智能和物联网等技术来制作3D模型，所以B选项“数字双胞胎只使用大数据来制作3D模型”是错误的。故选B。 45．最佳标题题。文章主要介绍了黄河的保护措施，包括数字双胞胎、智能石头和无人机等新技术的应用，所以最佳标题是“保护黄河的新方法”。故选D。 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题（满分55分） 四、任务型阅读 （共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面的短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，每个空格只填一个单词，并把答案写在答题卡指定的位置。 Food waste is not just a problem at the dinner table, but a big problem all over the world. Serious losses of food, happen from farmers’ fields to customers’ fridges. What’s worse, pollution and natural disasters may cause food shortage. In developing countries, forty percent of food waste happens during harvesting and processing (加工). Because of this, farmers making little money are trapped in a cycle of poverty. They are also short of rapid transportation and refrigeration (冷藏), so a large number of crops may go bad before they reach the market. Few farmers can afford industrial-sized fridges to keep their products in good conditions. Food waste is also discovered in developed countries. More than forty percent of food waste happens during the process of selling and buying. Shockingly, this amount reaches near the yearly food production in some part of Africa. In many cases, the vegetables and fruit are thrown away because they look “ugly”, falling short of industry standards. Polluting and destroying environment do harm to producing food. A few countries are reducing natural areas for growing food crops and raising livestock (牲畜). Most surprisingly, in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest, 800 million trees in the past six years have been cut down to make beef cattle farms. Also, fish farms still create a great deal of pollution as well as diseases. At present, it seems that food production doesn’t reduce, but it may influence all the living things on the earth in the future. Natural disasters like droughts and storms can destroy a whole year’s crop for an unlucky farmer. Climate change will make such events that were previously thought of as “once in a hundred years” happen more and more often. This means that we’ll need more resources to produce the same amount of food. Food waste is harmful to humans, as well as other life on the earth. It’s not only the problem on customers’ dinner table, but also an international problem that must be dealt with by the governments. Food problems •Food is lost 46 from fields to fridges. •Food shortage is caused by pollution and natural disasters. 47 of food waste in different countries *In developing countries•Some farmers are 48 all the time because of the food waste. •Crops may go bad because they can’t be transported 49 . •Products can’t be kept in good conditions because of the limited refrigeration. *In developed countries•In the process of selling and buying, 50 40% of food waste happens. The amount is almost the food production in some part of Africa in a year. •People throw the vegetables and fruit away 51 they look nice and meet standards. Bad 52 on producing food *Polluting and destroying environment•Some natural areas are 53 to grow food crops and raise livestock. •Pollution, as well as diseases, is created by fish farms. Conclusion Natural disasters•A whole year’s crop can be destroyed by natural disasters. •Natural disasters happen more often, not "once in a 54 "in the past. •More resources are needed to produce the same amount of food. Food waste is harmful to all of life on the earth. It’s a problem which should be solved by 55 customers and the governments. 【答案】 46．seriously 47．Discoveries/Situations/Facts 48．poor 49．rapidly/quickly/fast 50．over 51．unless 52．influences 53．reduced 54．century 55．both 【导语】本文主要讲述了食物浪费是全球性的大问题，介绍了不同国家食物浪费的情况、对食物生产的不良影响以及自然灾害等因素对食物的影响，强调食物浪费不仅是消费者的问题，也是需要政府解决的国际问题。 46．根据“Serious losses of food happen from farmers’ fields to customers’ fridges.”可知，食物从农田到消费者冰箱都有严重的损失，此处用副词“seriously”修饰动词“lost”，表示“严重地”。故填seriously。 47．根据表格内容可知，下文介绍了发展中国家和发达国家食物浪费的情况，“Discoveries/Situations/Facts”意为“情况，事实”，符合语境，句首单词首字母大写。故填Discoveries/Situations/Facts。 48．根据“Because of this, farmers making little money are trapped in a cycle of poverty.”可知，一些农民因为食物浪费一直很贫穷，“poor”意为“贫穷的”，符合语境。故填poor。 49．根据“They are also short of rapid transportation and refrigeration, so a large number of crops may go bad before they reach the market.”可知，因为运输不迅速，庄稼可能会变质，此处用副词“rapidly/quickly/fast”修饰动词“transported”，表示“迅速地”。故填rapidly/quickly/fast。 50．根据“More than forty percent of food waste happens during the process of selling and buying.”可知，在销售和购买过程中，超过 40% 的食物浪费发生了，“over”意为“超过”，符合语境。故填over。 51．根据“In many cases, the vegetables and fruit are thrown away because they look ‘ugly’, falling short of industry standards.”可知，人们扔掉蔬菜和水果，除非它们看起来好看且符合标准，“unless”意为“除非”，符合语境。故填unless。 52．根据“Polluting and destroying environment do harm to producing food.”可知，此处讲的是对食物生产的不良影响，“influences”意为“影响”，符合语境。故填influences。 53．根据“A few countries are reducing natural areas for growing food crops and raising livestock.”可知，一些自然区域被减少用于种植粮食作物和饲养牲畜，此处是被动语态，用“reduced”。故填reduced。 54．根据“Climate change will make such events that were previously thought of as ‘once in a hundred years’ happen more and more often.”可知，自然灾害不再是过去“百年一遇”，而是更频繁发生，“century”意为“世纪”，符合语境。故填century。 55．根据“It’s not only the problem on customers’ dinner table, but also an international problem that must be dealt with by the governments.”可知，食物浪费是需要消费者和政府共同解决的问题，“both...and...”表示“两者都”，符合语境。故填both。 五、语篇填空 （共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面的短文，在空白处填入适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。有提示词的空格不限一词，无提示词的空格限填一词。 When it comes to Yuan Longping, we will think of him as the “Father of Hybrid Rice”.

On Thursday, she missed her piano lesson. On Friday. her mum worked late so she had to stay at school for one more hour! She went home and said to her mum, “My whole week was bad. And those bad things still stay in my mind. Why do I only remember something bad? There must be something wrong with me!” Mum smiled and said, “My girl! Don’t be angry with yourself. Everyone feels like that sometimes. Our mind remembers bad things because it wants to keep us safe. Bad feelings are not easy to leave. You need some practice to change your mind.” “What should I do?” Nora asked. “Take a few deep breaths and try to think about something happy,” Mum said. Nora took a few deep breaths as Mum told her to and tried to think of beautiful flowers and the blue sky. “Wow!” said Nora. “It’s quite easy to change my mind!” The next week, while Nora was walking to school, she knocked on a tree and fell over. She felt her face getting hot. She was going to get angry again. Just at the moment, she remembered Mum’s words and the mind-changing power! She took a deep breath and tried to feel the warm sun on her face. It worked! It really worked! She felt much better! “Well, I fell over,” she said, “But I also get to play outside, climb trees, and help my dad bake bread!

B It was half past seven on Monday morning: time to get ready for school. Jay Stone rolled out of bed. He did a couple of quick wake-up exercises and then he went over to his mirror (镜子) and looked at himself. “Not bad, Stone, not bad,” he said to himself and smiled. Maybe he wasn’t ready for Hollywood, but with his dark brown eyes and his thick brown hair, he had the looks that turned girls’ heads. He moved closer to the mirror and smiled, checking his teeth. “Perfect,” he thought. “Good enough for a toothpaste ad.” As his eyes moved down to his strong arms, he smiled again. The hours he spent in the gym and doing sit-ups have paid off. But suddenly, the smile froze. His eyes moved from the upper part of his body down to his legs. His legs were short. Not just short, but far too short for his body. He had the upper body of a six-footer, but because of his legs he was much less than six feet! Six inches less! Sitting, he was as tall as almost anyone. Standing, he had to look up at most of the boys and even many of the girls. Why didn’t his legs grow with the rest of his body? He was one of the shortest boys in his class. He was the shortest in his own family, he was even shorter than his “little” sister—by three inches! Where did his legs come from? He certainly didn’t get them from his parents. They were both quite tall. Looking through old family photos, he found the answer. It was his grandfather on his mother’s side. His short legs were a gift from Grandpa Tuttle. Thanks a lot, Grandpa! Of course, the kids at school all noticed Jay’s short legs and they had a nickname (外号) for him: Stubs! Almost no one called him by his real name; they all called him Stubs. Stubs Stone, Jay didn’t like his nickname, but he had to accept it. He had no choice. But Jay couldn’t see in the mirror what his legs could do. They were quick and strong. He was the youngest player on the Brewer High football team. He could run faster than anyone else in the team and, like a rabbit, he kept going and going. Even at basketball, where the other players were much taller than him, they were still afraid of him because of his speed. Jay shook his head. “Stubs, Stubs Stone, the kid with stubby legs. Yeah, that’s me,” he said to himself with a little smile. Suddenly, he heard his mother’s voice. “Jay! It’s breakfast time!” 31．What did Jay do after he got up on the Monday morning? A．He did some housework. B．He took some family photos. C．He watched TV for some time. D．He did some wake-up exercises. 32．What can we learn about Jay in paragraphs 2—4? A．He was satisfied with his looks. B．He wanted to be a film actor. C．He once played a role in an ad. D．He found it useless to do sit-ups. 33．What does the underlined word “froze” probably mean in paragraph 5? A．Spread. B．Stopped. C．Continued. D．Returned. 34．Which of the following best describes Jay? A．Strict and serious. B．Clever and helpful. C．Funny and confident. D．Patient and hard-working. 35．What does the writer mainly want to tell in the passage? A．Teenagers like to play tricks on each other. B．Teenagers should have dreams in their hearts. C．People’s legs usually grow with other body parts. D．People can turn their weak points into advantages. C Hundreds of people attended the premiere (首映) of the movie My People, My Country at a Los Angeles cinema on Sept. 30. Waving Chinese flags in their hands, audiences sang My People, My Country together at the start of the film, its theme song that serves as a thread throughout (贯穿) the movie The song is a patriotic (爱国的) Chinese classic, known to every family. It was first sung by singer Li Guyi in 1985. It was reworked for the movie by pop singer Faye Wong. Made up of seven short stories from seven directors, led by Chen Kaige, the film draws on the nation’s greatest technological and cultural achievements starting with the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949. Yet the film does not focus on the historical moments themselves, but rather shows events through the eyes of ordinary people who worked for them and were influenced by them. The short story The Guiding Star, for example, follows a pair of brothers who saw the landing of the capsule of the Shenzhou XI manned spacecraft on Nov. 18, 2016 in Inner Mongolia and who were filled with pride and hope at that moment. “If a person encounters a historical opportunity to be changed, the inspiring power generated is unbelievable,” Chen told China.org.cn. “In my story, the landing of Shenzhou XI changed the lives of two teenagers, changed their destiny and allowed them to gain new hope.” In another short story, Going Home, Simon Yam plays a clock repairer who witnessed the return of Hong Kong from British rule to China in 1997. The actor himself has experienced the power of hope. “On the day of Hong Kong’s return, I felt it wasn’t just a return to the motherland, but the return of hearts,” he told China.org.cn. “When the flag was raised, I felt like, ‘We are home. We feel secured and assured’.” The film certainly struck a patriotic chord with many. In a survey ranking audience satisfaction, My People, My Country came in first among 267 domestic films released since 2015. The survey was done by the China Film Art Research Center. 36．When audiences sang My People, My Country together at the start of the film, they _________. A．sat in the theatre B．waved Chinese flags in their hands C．stood along the road D．hugged together and jumped excitedly 37．How many directors directed the movie My People, My Country? A．seven B．six C．only one D．two 38．What changed the lives of the two teenagers in the story The Guiding Star? A．The landing of Shenzhou XI B．The founding of the People’s Republic of China C．The return of Hong Kong D．The raising of the national flag 39．The clock repairer felt like he was home when_________. A．he saw the landing of Shenzhou XI on Nov. 18, 2016 B．he experienced the founding of the PRC in Oct. 1949 C．he first sang the song My People, My Country D．the national flag was raised in Hong Kong in 1997 40．Where can you read this article? A．In a history book B．In a travel magazine C．In a newspaper D．In an advertisement D Do you not see the Yellow River come from the sky, rushing into the sea and never returning? This poem describes a very beautiful scene of the Yellow River. The Yellow River is the cradle of China’s civilization (中华文明的摇篮). It’s in northern China. It runs through nine provinces from west to east. It looks like the Chinese character “几”. It is the second longest river in China, and the fifth longest in the world. The Yellow River is also called the “mother river of China”. So flood (洪水) control and prevention have always been the key to the happy lives of people. Now, scientists can better solve these problems by giving the river a digital (数字) twin. The Yellow River’s digital twin uses new technologies such as big data (数据), AI and Internet of things to collect and send the information to the control center. According to the information, a 3D model of the river is shown on the computer screen, and it reflects the real conditions of the Yellow River. It’s like the Yellow River has a twin. One big success in the Yellow River’s protection is “smart stones”. They are put in important places along the river to record the movement of the river. As soon as smart stones feel the unusual movement of the river, they’ll send an alarm to the control center at once. In this way, the government can take action to protect the Yellow River in time. And in the sky, drones (无人机) are flying to survey the flood prevention projects. Thanks to the drones, scientists can get the information about the Yellow River in time. Under the water and up in the sky, intelligent devices (设备) are helping to protect the Yellow River. In the future, we’ll try our best to create better ways for the mother river’s protection. 41．According to the map, the “sea” in Paragraph 1 refers to _________. A．the Yellow Sea B．the Bohai Sea C．the South China Sea D．the East China Sea 42．How does the writer introduce the Yellow River in Paragraph 2? A．By listing numbers. B．By telling a story. C．By comparing opinions. D．By asking questions. 43．The intelligent devices are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT _________. A．drones B．smart stones C．intelligent cars D．a digital twin 44．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A．The Yellow River runs through nine provinces. B．The digital twin only uses big data to make a 3D model. C．Smart stones can feel the unusual movement of the river. D．Drones help to get the information about the Yellow River. 45．What could be the best title for the passage? A．The Location of the Yellow River B．Beautiful Scenes of the Yellow River C．A Poem of Praising the Yellow River D．New Ways of Protecting the Yellow River 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题（满分55分） 四、任务型阅读 （共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面的短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，每个空格只填一个单词，并把答案写在答题卡指定的位置。 Food waste is not just a problem at the dinner table, but a big problem all over the world. Serious losses of food, happen from farmers’ fields to customers’ fridges. What’s worse, pollution and natural disasters may cause food shortage. In developing countries, forty percent of food waste happens during harvesting and processing (加工). Because of this, farmers making little money are trapped in a cycle of poverty. They are also short of rapid transportation and refrigeration (冷藏), so a large number of crops may go bad before they reach the market. Few farmers can afford industrial-sized fridges to keep their products in good conditions. Food waste is also discovered in developed countries. More than forty percent of food waste happens during the process of selling and buying. Shockingly, this amount reaches near the yearly food production in some part of Africa. In many cases, the vegetables and fruit are thrown away because they look “ugly”, falling short of industry standards. Polluting and destroying environment do harm to producing food. A few countries are reducing natural areas for growing food crops and raising livestock (牲畜). Most surprisingly, in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest, 800 million trees in the past six years have been cut down to make beef cattle farms. Also, fish farms still create a great deal of pollution as well as diseases. At present, it seems that food production doesn’t reduce, but it may influence all the living things on the earth in the future. Natural disasters like droughts and storms can destroy a whole year’s crop for an unlucky farmer. Climate change will make such events that were previously thought of as “once in a hundred years” happen more and more often.
