Not tangled (缠绕在一起的)?” Kiki considered for a moment, then gathered her own hair into a knot. “Look. You could cut it like this. It would feel much cooler.

When Mama came home, she was all ____20____. “This cut is so stylish, Costadena. So pretty!” We heard a voice from outside. Papou! “Let’s go and ____21____ him.” Mama said and we walked outside. “Is that Costadena?” He stopped for a second with eyes widening. I didn’t think he liked it. My tears started rolling down. “Do I still remind you of that one-of-a-kind girl?” I asked quietly. I noticed my mother narrow her eyes before Papou ____22____. “Of course, sweetheart.” By the weekend, the weather was even hotter, and we went to Lake Michigan. I felt a gust of wind by the beach. “Wild child!” Papou called. “Let’s go ____23____.” Jumping into the water, I found my head sprang up fast and free. No hair covered my eyes. Again and again I jumped into the water and flew out toward the sky. After a bath, I brushed my hair ____24____, with no more tangles. Kiki was right. Looking at myself in the mirror, I saw just me.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了主人公因天生杂乱难梳理的蓬乱头发而烦恼，在他人劝说下剪掉长发，经历内心的纠结不安后，最终接纳自我、获得内心平和与成长的故事。 【15题详解】 句意：唯一清楚的是，妈妈对我的头发不耐烦了。 后文“She tried to brush gently, but the brush got stuck again.“，妈妈多次轻柔梳理头发，可梳子总是被打结的头发卡住，体现出妈妈对此感到不耐烦，impatient意为“不耐烦的”，符合语境。 【16题详解】 句意：你是独一无二的女孩，有着极具特色的天然蓬乱的头发。 后文多处原词复现“Time to say bye to your wild hair.”、“Wild child!”，全文始终用wild形容主人公天生杂乱不羁的头发。 【17题详解】 句意：我抬起我的头发，来扇走脖颈上的汗水。 后文“to fan my neck covered in sweat”，结合生活常识，要给闷热的脖颈扇风散热需要拨开头发，hair符合句意。 【18题详解】 句意：看着我自己杂乱的头发，我更喜欢她的造型。 前文理发师展示了自己整洁好看的发型，对比自身乱糟糟的头发，主人公内心不喜欢原本的发型，更倾向于她的发型，因此答应剪发，preferred“偏爱，更喜欢”符合语境。 【19题详解】 句意：头发变得太短了！ 前文主人公下定决心剪掉长发，剪下头发后内心慌张后悔，感慨剪完的头发太短了，short“短的”，对应剪发后的状态。 【20题详解】 句意：妈妈回家后，满是夸赞。 后文“This cut is so stylish, Costadena. So pretty!”，妈妈看到主人公的新发型，说出了大量夸赞的话语，praise意为“表扬、夸赞”，符合语境。 【21题详解】 句意：我们出去，给他一个惊喜。 祖父突然前来拜访，妈妈提议出门迎接，想让祖父见到剪发后的主人公，给对方一份惊喜，surprise意为“使惊喜”符合语境。 【22题详解】 句意：我注意到妈妈眼神一紧，随后祖父做出了回应。 前文主人公向祖父说出内心的疑问，此处指祖父对主人公的提问进行回答、回应，replied意为“回复、回答”，符合对话逻辑。 【23题详解】 句意：我们去游泳吧。 后文“Again and again I jumped into the water”，祖父呼喊主人公下水嬉戏，对应活动为游泳，swimming“游泳” 符合下水的情节。 【24题详解】 句意：洗完澡后，我轻松地梳着头，头发再也不打结了。 后文“with no more tangles”头发不再缠绕打结，说明梳头的过程变得轻松简单，easily意为“轻松地、容易地”，呼应开篇梳头艰难的情节，形成全文首尾对比。 三、阅读理解 阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在每小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。(本大题共13小题，每小题2分，共26分) A 25.

Many kids feel a mix of willingness and fear when they want to speak up. You can practice while doing homework. Pretend (假装) a teacher asked a question. Then raise your hand and answer. Doing this at home may help your voice feel stronger. Next, try to raise your hand once or twice a week at school. You might ask a friend to give you a smile. It’s easier to be brave when someone’s cheering you on. Finally, when you have a question, tell yourself that your classmates may be curious about the same thing. That may help you feel more confident. That sounds frustrating. Your brothers and sisters may not realize how strongly you feel about this. Here are a few ideas. Make a special place. Find a place to keep your favorite toys. Ask a parent to help you think of a place that is just for your things. Talk it out. Have a calm dialogue with your brothers and sisters. You could say, “This toy is really important to me. Can we make a deal that you will ask before touching it?” Offer other toys. Choose one or two toys that you are willing to share. That way, your brothers and sisters will still feel included and your special things will stay safe. 28. Which part of a magazine is the passage probably taken from? A. Science news. B. Healthy lifestyles. C. Personality tests. D. Teenage problems. 29. What does the underlined word “included” mean? A. Accepted. B. Guilty. C. Praised. D. Nervous. 30. What can we learn from the passage? A. We can get our friends’ support if we raise our hands in class. B. We can share our favourite toys with others to keep them safe. C. Practicing speaking up at home can make us more confident in class. D. Communicating with our parents can help us protect our favourite toys. 【答案】28. D 29. A 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是两封青少年求助信及对应的建议，分别讲述了Lily不敢课堂举手、Van的玩具被兄弟姐妹乱动的烦恼，并给出了解决办法。 【28题详解】 文章围绕两位青少年的日常烦恼及建议展开，属于青少年问题类内容，最可能出自杂志的青少年问题部分。 【29题详解】 表格最后一段“Choose one or two toys that you are willing to share. That way, your brothers and sisters will still feel included and your special things will stay safe.”说明分享一两件玩具，让兄弟姐妹依然感觉被接纳，同时自己的特殊玩具也能安全存放，“included”意为“被接纳、被接受”，与Accepted近义。 【30题详解】 表格对Lily的建议部分“You can practice while doing homework. Pretend (假装) a teacher asked a question. Then raise your hand and answer. Doing this at home may help your voice feel stronger.”表明在家练习举手发言能让你在课堂上更自信。 C Sammy checked his calendar. “Yes!” he cried, jumping out of bed. “I mean NO! It’s Opposite Day!” He put his shirt on inside out and walked backward down the hall. “Good night, Mom,” he said in the kitchen. “Have a bad day at work!” Mom turned to him. “Excuse me?” “It’s Opposite Day!” Sammy explained. “Would you like some pancakes?” Dad asked. “No, thanks,” replied Sammy, holding out his plate. “They look terrible.” Dad raised his eyebrows. “Opposite Day!” Sammy said again. Sammy and Marcie met at the bus stop and waved. “Good-bye!” they said at the same time. At school, the kids were entering through the door marked Exit. When Sammy dropped his pencil box, Marcie said, “I won’t help you” and reached down to pick up some of his pencils. During math, the kids added when the sign said to subtract, and they subtracted when the sign said to add on the blackboard. “What is going on here?” cried their teacher, Ms. Trix. “It’s Opposite Day!” said the class. “That’s right,” Ms. Trix said. “In that case, there’s no homework tonight.” “Yay!” said the kids. But then they remembered what day it was. That afternoon, Ms. Trix asked the kids to present their book reports. “Oh no!” thought Sammy. He’d been so excited about Opposite Day that he had left his report at home. Sammy put his head in his hands and thought. He could make something up, or he could tell the truth. “Ms. Trix,” he confessed when she called on him, “I won’t be able to present my book report today.” Ms. Trix looked at Sammy and smiled. “Well, it’s Opposite Day. I guess that means you will be able to bring it in tomorrow! I expect it to be awful. And by that I mean great!” Sammy sighed with relief. After school, at Sammy’s house, Marcie and Sammy climbed a tree and played on the swings. “This is so boring,” Marcie said. “You’re the worst friend in the world,” Sammy replied. “You too,” said Marcie. “Just be sure to forget your book report tomorrow.” “I will,” said Sammy, smiling. Opposite Day was no fun at all. 31. What did the students write on the blackboard during math? A. B. C. D. 32. What can we infer from the story? A. Sammy lied to Ms. Trix about leaving his book report at home. B. Students would have no homework that night as Ms. Trix said. C. Ms. Trix was very humorous and understood Opposite Day well. D. Marcie was not willing to help Sammy because of Opposite Day. 33. Which is the best title for the story? A. Sweet Memories B. Opposite Day C. True Friends D. Book Report 【答案】31. D 32. C 33. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了Sammy和同学们过“相反日”的有趣经历，在这一天人们说的话、做的事都要与平常相反，文章围绕这一特殊日子展开了一系列情节。 【31题详解】 第十段指出“During math, the kids added when the sign said to subtract, and they subtracted when the sign said to add on the blackboard.”，这直接说明在数学课上，孩子们在黑板上看到减号时做加法，看到加号时做减法。 【32题详解】 从倒数第五段“‘That’s right,’ Ms. Trix said. ‘In that case, there’s no homework tonight.’ ‘Yay!’ said the kids. But then they remembered what day it was.”以及倒数第四段“Ms. Trix looked at Sammy and smiled. ‘Well, it’s Opposite Day. I guess that means you will be able to bring it in tomorrow! I expect it to be awful. And by that I mean great!’”可以看出，Ms. Trix很幽默并且很理解“相反日”的含义，所以C选项正确。 【33题详解】 文章主要围绕“相反日”展开，讲述了在这一天发生的各种有趣的事情，所以B选项“Opposite Day”作为标题最合适。 D Listening to music can make you feel less sick when in a moving car, according to new research—but it depends on the type of song you play. Motion (移动) sickness is feeling light-headed or like throwing up, often when you’re travelling by car, boat, plane or train. About one in three people are very likely to get motion sickness but almost everyone gets motion sickness if the movement is strong enough. Children are more likely to feel sick than adults, yet no one knows why some people fight against it their whole lives and others don’t. People get motion sickness because their senses are sending different messages to their brains. In a moving car, for example, your eyes tell your brain you’re moving because objects are rushing by, but your inner ear tells you’re not moving at all. This can make you feel sick. The volunteers were set up with equipment (设备) so that they felt like they were in a car, and small sensors were stuck to their heads to record electrical activity in their brains. The team divided the volunteers into six groups. Four groups listened to music after a drive that made them feel sick; one group didn’t listen to anything and instead paid attention to calming themselves for one minute; and the other group’s “drive” ended before they started feeling sick. The results showed that joyful music was more effective (有效的) at reducing motion sickness than anything else. Soft music was a close second, followed by lively music. However, sad music actually slowed down recovery. Even people who listened to nothing felt better sooner than those who listened to sad music. 34. What is the main finding of the new study? A. A new method of keeping people healthy. B. A new method of reducing motion sickness. C. Advantages of listening to different music. D. Advantages of preventing motion sickness. 35. The following sentence can best be put at the beginning of ________. Led by Yilun Li, a brain scientist, at the Henan Institute of Science and Technology in China, a study chose 30 volunteers, all of whom were likely to get motion sickness. A. Paragraph 2 B. Paragraph 3 C. Paragraph 4 D. Paragraph 5 36. Which of the following shows the correct order from the most effective to the least effective? a. lively music b. joyful music c. soft music d. sad music e. no music A. a-c-b-d-e B. a-b-c-e-d C. b-c-a-e-d D. b-c-a-d-e 37. What can we infer from the passage? A. Passengers can feel better if they watch a film on the train. B. Passengers can feel worse if they open the window on the bus. C. Motion sickness lasts as long in children as it does in adults. D. Motion sickness happens when senses disagree with each other. 【答案】34. B 35. C 36. C 37. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇科普说明文，介绍了一项关于听音乐缓解晕动病的新研究。 【34题详解】 根据第一段“Listening to music can…song you play.”可知，文章开篇点明研究核心是听音乐对晕动病有缓解作用，故选B，减轻晕动病的新方法。 【35题详解】 第四段开头具体介绍志愿者做这项实验，因此“Led by…get motion sickness.”（本研究由中国河南科技学院脑科学专家李轶伦牵头开展，共招募30名易患晕动病的志愿者。）应放在第四段开头，起到引出实验细节的作用。 【36题详解】 根据文章最后一段可知，不同音乐的效果顺序由高到低为：欢乐音乐“joyful music”，柔和音乐“soft music”，活泼音乐“lively music”，不听音乐“no music”，悲伤音乐“sad music”。 【37题详解】 根据原文第三段开头“People get motion sickness because their senses are sending different messages to their brains.”可知，晕动病的病因是不同感官向大脑传递不同的信号，也就是感官信息不一致，故选D。 第II卷(主观题 共50分) 四、词汇运用(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) (A)根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 38.

After the show, many people shared their ________ (person) thoughts online. 【答案】personal 【解析】 【详解】句意：节目结束后，许多人在网上分享了自己的个人想法。空格后面是名词“thoughts”，需要用形容词来修饰名词，因此变形为：person“人”→ personal“私人的”。 45.

In recent years, the Turtle Head Park ________ (organize) some activities to make it more attractive. 【答案】has organized 【解析】 【详解】句意：近年来，鼋头渚公园组织了一些活动来使其更具吸引力。句中“In recent years”为现在完成时的标志性时间状语。主语the Turtle Head Park为第三人称单数，助动词用has，动词organize的过去分词为organized。故填has organized。 50. For example, light shows ________ (hold) every evening during the cherry blossom season. 【答案】are held 【解析】 【详解】句意：例如，樱花季节期间每天晚上都会举办灯光秀。主语“light shows”和动词“hold”之间是被动关系（灯光秀是“被举办”），所以要用被动语态。时间状语“every evening”表示经常性的动作，用一般现在时；主语是复数，be动词用are，hold的过去分词是held，故填are held。 51. Many people come here ________ (experience) a different sight of the night cherry blossoms. 【答案】to experience 【解析】 【详解】句意：许多人来到这里是为了体验夜樱的独特美景。句子主谓结构“Many people come here”已经完整，此处需填入动词experience的非谓语形式，用来表示“来到这里”的目的。动词不定式to experience在此处作目的状语，明确人们来这里的初衷是“体验夜樱景色”。 52. This March, my family and I also ________ (go) there to enjoy the cherry blossoms. 【答案】went 【解析】 【详解】句意：今年三月，我和家人也去那里赏樱花。句中时间状语“This March”说明动作是过去已经发生的，句子需要用一般过去时；动词go的过去式是不规则变化，为went。 53. As we entered the park, flowers ________ (dance) gently in the wind, as if welcoming our arrival. 【答案】were dancing 【解析】 【详解】句意：当我们进入公园时，花儿在风中轻轻舞动，仿佛在欢迎我们的到来。dance“跳舞”，动词。根据“As we entered the park...as if welcoming our arrival.”可知，此处描述的是过去某个时刻正在发生的动作，即当我们进入公园时花儿正在舞动，所以用过去进行时，结构为“was/were +现在分词”，主语“flowers”是复数，be动词用were，dance的现在分词是dancing。 54. Filled with excitement, I couldn’t wait ________ (record) the natural beauty with my camera. 【答案】to record 【解析】 【详解】句意：我怀着激动的心情，迫不及待地用相机记录下这美丽的自然风光。句中couldn’t wait是can’t wait的过去式，固定结构can’t wait to do sth. 意为“迫不及待做某事”，此处动词record用不定式形式to record。 55. After that, we ________ (attract) by the boat tour to the small island in the center of the lake. 【答案】were attracted 【解析】 【详解】句意：随后，我们被前往湖心小岛的乘船游览项目所吸引。主语“we”和动词“attract”之间是被动关系，即表示“我们”是“被吸引”的对象，所以要用被动语态；句首的“After that”说明动作发生在过去，此处用一般过去时的被动语态；主语we是复数，be动词用were，attract的过去分词是attracted，故填were attracted。 56. What an amazing trip! I ________ (keep) exploring the beautiful sights of Wuxi in the future. 【答案】will keep 【解析】 【详解】句意：多么奇妙的旅行啊！以后我将继续探索无锡的美丽景点。句中时间状语“in the future”是一般将来时的标志词，因此填动词keep的将来形式will keep。 57. I’m really happy that my hometown ________ (become) increasingly beautiful these days! 【答案】has become##is becoming 【解析】 【详解】句意：我很高兴，我的家乡近来已经/正变得越来越美丽了。句中“these days”说明“家乡变美”是从过去持续到现在的变化，对现在造成了“我很开心”的结果，为现在完成时；也可以是现在进行时，表示家乡正变得越来越美丽。主语“my hometown”是第三人称单数，助动词用has/be动词用is；动词become的过去分词还是原形become，故填has become/is becoming。 六、阅读表达 阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题，每小题答案不超过8个单词。 The earliest forms of Chinese raincoats were made of straw and they were called “straw rain capes”.

It is said that she is the only one still making straw rain capes for a living in Ganyu District. The woman learned the skill when she was 12. When she was young, she could make two capes in three days, and make a living for her family. Now her children ask her not to make capes anymore. They think she should enjoy her time. However, she still continues to make straw rain capes to keep this traditional skill alive. Making a straw rain cape needs 4 kilograms of straw, and for Fan now needs 4-5 days to finish a single cape. “Still, I hope more people will learn about this traditional skill. I wish someone would take it up and keep it going for years to come. It is not just a straw rain cape, but a special part of our culture and history.” Fan said. 58.

Many kids feel a mix of willingness and fear when they want to speak up. You can practice while doing homework. Pretend (假装) a teacher asked a question. Then raise your hand and answer. Doing this at home may help your voice feel stronger. Next, try to raise your hand once or twice a week at school. You might ask a friend to give you a smile. It’s easier to be brave when someone’s cheering you on. Finally, when you have a question, tell yourself that your classmates may be curious about the same thing. That may help you feel more confident. That sounds frustrating. Your brothers and sisters may not realize how strongly you feel about this. Here are a few ideas. Make a special place. Find a place to keep your favorite toys. Ask a parent to help you think of a place that is just for your things. Talk it out. Have a calm dialogue with your brothers and sisters. You could say, “This toy is really important to me. Can we make a deal that you will ask before touching it?” Offer other toys. Choose one or two toys that you are willing to share. That way, your brothers and sisters will still feel included and your special things will stay safe. 28. Which part of a magazine is the passage probably taken from? A. Science news. B.

C Sammy checked his calendar. “Yes!” he cried, jumping out of bed. “I mean NO! It’s Opposite Day!” He put his shirt on inside out and walked backward down the hall. “Good night, Mom,” he said in the kitchen. “Have a bad day at work!” Mom turned to him. “Excuse me?” “It’s Opposite Day!” Sammy explained. “Would you like some pancakes?” Dad asked. “No, thanks,” replied Sammy, holding out his plate. “They look terrible.” Dad raised his eyebrows. “Opposite Day!” Sammy said again. Sammy and Marcie met at the bus stop and waved. “Good-bye!” they said at the same time. At school, the kids were entering through the door marked Exit. When Sammy dropped his pencil box, Marcie said, “I won’t help you” and reached down to pick up some of his pencils. During math, the kids added when the sign said to subtract, and they subtracted when the sign said to add on the blackboard. “What is going on here?” cried their teacher, Ms. Trix. “It’s Opposite Day!” said the class. “That’s right,” Ms. Trix said. “In that case, there’s no homework tonight.” “Yay!” said the kids.

He’d been so excited about Opposite Day that he had left his report at home. Sammy put his head in his hands and thought. He could make something up, or he could tell the truth. “Ms. Trix,” he confessed when she called on him, “I won’t be able to present my book report today.” Ms. Trix looked at Sammy and smiled. “Well, it’s Opposite Day. I guess that means you will be able to bring it in tomorrow! I expect it to be awful. And by that I mean great!” Sammy sighed with relief. After school, at Sammy’s house, Marcie and Sammy climbed a tree and played on the swings. “This is so boring,” Marcie said. “You’re the worst friend in the world,” Sammy replied. “You too,” said Marcie. “Just be sure to forget your book report tomorrow.” “I will,” said Sammy, smiling.

Book Report D Listening to music can make you feel less sick when in a moving car, according to new research—but it depends on the type of song you play. Motion (移动) sickness is feeling light-headed or like throwing up, often when you’re travelling by car, boat, plane or train. About one in three people are very likely to get motion sickness but almost everyone gets motion sickness if the movement is strong enough. Children are more likely to feel sick than adults, yet no one knows why some people fight against it their whole lives and others don’t. People get motion sickness because their senses are sending different messages to their brains. In a moving car, for example, your eyes tell your brain you’re moving because objects are rushing by, but your inner ear tells you’re not moving at all. This can make you feel sick. The volunteers were set up with equipment (设备) so that they felt like they were in a car, and small sensors were stuck to their heads to record electrical activity in their brains. The team divided the volunteers into six groups. Four groups listened to music after a drive that made them feel sick; one group didn’t listen to anything and instead paid attention to calming themselves for one minute; and the other group’s “drive” ended before they started feeling sick. The results showed that joyful music was more effective (有效的) at reducing motion sickness than anything else. Soft music was a close second, followed by lively music. However, sad music actually slowed down recovery. Even people who listened to nothing felt better sooner than those who listened to sad music. 34. What is the main finding of the new study? A. A new method of keeping people healthy. B. A new method of reducing motion sickness. C. Advantages of listening to different music. D. Advantages of preventing motion sickness. 35. The following sentence can best be put at the beginning of ________. Led by Yilun Li, a brain scientist, at the Henan Institute of Science and Technology in China, a study chose 30 volunteers, all of whom were likely to get motion sickness. A. Paragraph 2 B. Paragraph 3 C. Paragraph 4 D. Paragraph 5 36. Which of the following shows the correct order from the most effective to the least effective? a. lively music b. joyful music c. soft music d. sad music e. no music A. a-c-b-d-e B. a-b-c-e-d C. b-c-a-e-d D. b-c-a-d-e 37. What can we infer from the passage? A. Passengers can feel better if they watch a film on the train. B. Passengers can feel worse if they open the window on the bus. C. Motion sickness lasts as long in children as it does in adults. D. Motion sickness happens when senses disagree with each other. 第II卷(主观题 共50分) 四、词汇运用(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) (A)根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 38.
