Imagine pioneers traveling west in the 1800s. In those days, it was hard to find running water and shops to buy things. As time went by, most pioneers had to make their homes near a river so that they could get water easily. How did rivers help people live in the past? Back in the pioneer days, people grew their own food, caught their own fish, and collected their own water. 1 People also used rivers as roads, traveling on boats. Traders shipped goods to people from other areas. 2 When building many factories right next to rivers for the water’s power to make machines work, some people choose to live near a river for work. They use the river to ship large goods, and some of them work at these factories where power factories provide electricity to homes and businesses. 3 Who wouldn’t want to live near a river? Some people are nervous about living near rivers because rivers can cause floods. Every once in a while, floodwaters rise higher than a house, ruining (泡坏) many things in the house. 4 Such waste causes water to smell bad and pollutes the crops we eat. Water and crops in polluted areas can make people very sick. How do people decide where to live? 5 Rivers can provide jobs and fun activities in a beautiful place. However, those living by rivers should be willing to accept possible problems as well. A．Why do people live near rivers now? B．Why did people want to live near a river? C．Some factories put their waste into rivers. D．Staying close to a river made it easy to get water for living. E．People who carry goods onto ships live near the river, too. F．People should think over the possible risks before deciding where to live. 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．E 4．C 5．F 【导语】本文主要介绍了过去和现在人们选择居住在河边的原因以及居住在河边可能存在的问题。 1．根据“Back in the pioneer days, people grew their own food, caught their own fish, and collected their own water.”可知，此处在介绍开拓者时代人们自己取水，选项D“住在河边很容易获得生活用水。 ”符合语境。故选D。 2．根据“When building many factories right next to rivers for the water’s power to make machines work, some people choose to live near a river for work.”可知，此处在介绍现在人们选择住在河边的原因，选项A“为什么现在人们住在河边？ ”符合语境。故选A。 3．根据“They use the river to ship large goods, and some of them work at these factories where power factories provide electricity to homes and businesses.”可知，此处在介绍住在河边的部分人的工作，选项E“将货物运上船的人也住在河边。”符合语境。故选E。 4．根据“Such waste causes water to smell bad and pollutes the crops we eat. Water and crops in polluted areas can make people very sick.”可知，此处在介绍一种会导致污染的废物，选项C“一些工厂把废物排入河流。 ”符合语境。故选C。 5．根据“Rivers can provide jobs and fun activities in a beautiful place. However, those living by rivers should be willing to accept possible problems as well.”可知，此处在介绍住在河边有好处也有问题，所以在决定住在哪里之前应该仔细考虑，选项F“人们在决定住在哪里之前应该考虑可能的风险。”符合语境。故选F。 七、阅读理解。 When I got up this morning, I was so surprised to find a new watch on my desk. I couldn’t help crying. I lost my old watch last Monday. It was a present from my father for my thirteenth birthday. I still don’t know where or how I lost it. I felt really sad when I couldn’t find the watch. I stayed at school to look for it until very late. When I came home, no one was there. At nine o’clock, my mum called back and told me that my dad was hit by a car on his way to look for me. He was sent to the hospital. I went to the hospital that night and told my dad I was sorry. I also told him I lost my watch, but he did not get angry. Dad stayed in the hospital for several days. He just came back home yesterday, and this morning I found the new watch.

A．A Lovely Girl     B．A New Watch C．An Unlucky Day    D．A Bad Traffic Accident 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．B 4．A 5．B 【导语】本文讲述作者弄丢父亲送的生日手表后很自责，父亲寻找她时遭遇车祸，出院后送新表，作者十分感动。 1．第二段提到：“I lost my old watch last Monday.”，直接点明丢失旧手表的时间是上周一。 2．第二段说明：“I still don’t know where or how I lost it.”，表明没人知道手表丢失的地点。 3．第三段指出：“my dad was hit by a car on his way to look for me”，说明父亲在寻找作者时被车撞了。 4．第四段和结尾提到父亲刚出院就有新手表，结合文末感谢父亲的内容，可推断新手表是父亲买的。 5．全文围绕丢失旧手表、父亲遇车祸、收到父亲送的新手表展开，核心物品是新手表，“A New Watch”最适合作为标题。 八、完形填空。 “It is very interesting and Liu Yang is so cool!” Li Manqi told the reporter 1 .

The hills were covered with sand, and the farmland was getting smaller and smaller. It took a long time to reach the town on rough roads, and going to school or seeing a doctor was very difficult. Locals worked by hand, and there was no big supermarket for shopping.To solve these problems, local people took action with the government’s support.

They also built new roads, a new hospital and a big supermarket.Now, the hills are covered with green trees, and there are fewer sandstorms. The corn fields are huge, and the environment is getting better. With the new roads, it takes only a short time to get around. People’s lives have greatly improved, and the town has become a beautiful place to live. Part 2: Skills Challenge Task 1: Critical Thinking（根据文章内容回答下列问题） 1.
