A. education B. instruction C. condition D. introduction 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：来自北京的医疗队正在尽最大努力改善当地人民的健康状况。 education教育；instruction指导；condition状况；introduction介绍。根据“The medical team from Beijing is trying its best to improve the health...of local people.”可知，医疗队的主要目的是改善当地人的健康状况。 2. —I’ve been here by this lake all day, but still haven’t seen any cranes. —Never give up. Good things come to those who ________ the right time. A. stand for B. carry on C. wait for D. take on 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我整天都在湖边，但还没看到鹤。——别放弃，好事会降临给那些等待时机的人。 考查动词短语。stand for代表；carry on继续；wait for等待；take on承担。根据“Never give up”和“the right time”可知，此处指等待时机。故选C。 3. —Lily, how many sit-ups can you do? —________ last term, but through practice, I can do more than 42 now. A. Nothing B. None C. No one D. Neither 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——莉莉，你能做多少个仰卧起坐？——上学期一个也没有，但经过练习，我现在能做 42 个以上了。 Nothing没有什么；None没有一个；No one没有人；Neither两者都不。根据问句“how many”可知是询问数量，答语表示上学期能做的数量为零，应用None指代数量。 4.

A. mustn’t B. can’t C. needn’t D. shouldn’t 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——看！那位穿红衣服的女士看起来像我们的英语老师。——不可能是她，因为她自从一周前就在苏州了。 mustn’t禁止；can’t不可能；needn’t不必；shouldn’t不应该。根据“she has been in Su Zhou since a week ago”可知老师身在苏州，不在现场，表示否定推测“不可能”，应用can’t。 7. —________ peaceful moment it is to enjoy the natural beauty along the Old Huanghe Park! —Yeah, it makes us feel relaxed.

I don’t want to practice hard. It’s too tiring. —Don’t give up. You know the saying “________”. A. Love me, love my dog B. Every dog has its day C. Many hands make light work D. No pain, no gain 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——听力对我来说很难。我不想努力练习。太累了。——别放弃。你知道谚语“不劳无获”。 Love me, love my dog爱屋及乌；Every dog has its day凡人皆有得意日；Many hands make light work人多好办事；No pain, no gain不劳无获。根据“Don’t give up”及前文提到练习太累不想努力，可知此处鼓励对方努力付出才会有收获，符合No pain, no gain 的含义。故选D。 三、完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Last month, our class put on a play for the school’s Art Festival.

A 24. B 25. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者班级为学校艺术节排练一部关于友谊的戏剧。作者扮演主角，起初紧张害怕，但在老师和同学的鼓励下坚持练习，最终演出成功并获得“最佳团队合作”奖。作者从中学会了勇气和团队精神。 【11题详解】 句意：主题是友谊，我们认为这很有意义，因为它是生活中最重要的事情之一。 空格前说主题是友谊，后文解释因为它是生活中最重要的事情之一，因此友谊这一主题是“有意义的”。meaningful“有意义的”。scientific“科学的”、strange“奇怪的”、useless“无用的”均不符合语境。 【12题详解】 句意：我们课后开始准备：一些人写台词，另一些人选音乐。 后文列举了写台词、选音乐等具体活动，这些都是为演出做的“准备”工作。prepare“准备”。record“录制”、perform“表演”、search“搜索”均不匹配后文内容。 【13题详解】 句意：起初我感到紧张，害怕忘词。 根据“afraid of forgetting lines”可知，作者害怕忘词，因此内心是“紧张的”。nervous“紧张的”。excited“兴奋的”、tired“疲倦的”、upset“难过的”均不符合害怕的心理状态。 【14题详解】 句意：但是李老师说：“相信自己。熟能生巧。” 前文说作者感到紧张害怕，后文李老师鼓励她，前后为转折关系。But“但是”。So“所以”、And“和”、Or“否则”均不合逻辑。 【15题详解】 句意：一些人耐心地帮我记台词，另一些人制作舞台道具。 帮助记台词需要耐心，因为作者可能反复忘记。patiently“耐心地”。simply“简单地”、quickly“快速地”、comfortably“舒适地”均不符合帮助记台词的情境。 【16题详解】 句意：我感到很难过，想要放弃。 前文说作者忘记了大段台词，感到难过，因此想要“放弃”演出。give up“放弃”。take up“开始从事”、put up“张贴”、set up“建立”均不符合语境。 【17题详解】 句意：随着演出日临近，我们更加努力地练习——放学后留下来完整排练两遍。 演出日临近，练习强度应加大，且后文提到放学后加练，说明“更努力地”。harder“更努力地”。better“更好地”、less“更少地”、earlier“更早地”均不符合语境。 【18题详解】 句意：当幕布升起时，我没有任何错误地说出了台词。 根据上下文，作者通过努力练习最终成功表演，因此应是“没有”错误。without“没有”。with“有”、for“为了”、against“反对”均不符合成功表演的语境。 【19题详解】 句意：当演出结束时，每个人都站起来并大声欢呼。 演出成功结束，观众的反应应是“欢呼”。cheered“欢呼”。talked“谈论”、laughed“大笑”、read“阅读”均不符合观众在演出结束时的典型反应。 【20题详解】 句意：最重要的是，勇气不是没有恐惧，而是在害怕的时候勇敢地行动。 空格前说“不是没有恐惧”，空格后说“当你害怕时……”，与恐惧相对的是“行动”。acting“行动”。waiting“等待”、studying“学习”、leaving“离开”均不符合勇气的定义。 【21题详解】 句意：这是我初中的一个美好记忆。 这次成功的演出经历是作者初中生活中值得记住的事情，因此是“记忆”。memory“记忆”。dream“梦想”、progress“进步”、idea“想法”均不贴切。 【22题详解】 句意：几天后，我们班得到了一个特别的惊喜。 后文说他们被授予“最佳团队合作”称号，这是意料之外的荣誉，因此是“惊喜”。surprise“惊喜”。change“改变”、chance“机会”、skill“技能”均不符合语境。 【23题详解】 句意：李老师笑着说：“你们的努力使这部戏剧成功了。” 全文都在讲述班级排练一部play（戏剧），因此这里指使这部“戏剧”成功。play“戏剧”。opera“歌剧”、show“表演/展示”、project“项目”中，play最准确呼应开头。 【24题详解】 句意：现在，面对挑战，我知道我有勇气继续前进。 通过这次经历，作者学会了勇气，因此面对挑战时拥有的是“勇气”。courage“勇气”。pressure“压力”、abilities“能力”、talent“天赋”中，与前文“courage”主题一致。 【25题详解】 句意：最后，我想说，如果他们努力，每个人都能实现自己的梦想。 空格前说“每个人都能实现梦想”，条件是“他们努力”，这里的they指代前面的everyone。they“他们”。I“我”、you“你/你们”、we“我们”均指代错误。 四、阅读理解（共两节，满分35分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下列短文，从短文后每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Welcome to Traditional Art Shows Sky Lantern Time: 7:00 p.m.~9:00 p.m. Friday—Sunday Place: City Park Ticket: Free Materials: bamboo (¥5), paper (¥4) Paper Cutting Time: 8:00 a.m.~10:00 a.m. Monday—Friday Place: People’s Square Ticket: Free Materials: paper (¥5), scissors (¥10) Chinese Clay (黏土) Time: 5:00 p.m.~7:00 p.m. Wednesday—Saturday Place: City Library Ticket: ¥10 All materials: ¥40 Sugar-Coated Figurine Kneading (捏糖人) Time: 6:00 a.m.~8:00 a.m. Monday—Friday Place: Community Centre Ticket: Free All materials: ¥20 26.

Ludwick thought this was a great idea. He used his mobile to do some research on the Internet and found a surprising fact: 2.5 billion people around the world haven’t got clean water. This is a huge problem because dirty water can create terrible illnesses. Ludwick started thinking. He wanted to make something to help people in parts of the world where it’s difficult to find clean water. He did more research on his mobile, and he did some more thinking. Then Ludwick had a plan. He wanted to make a gel（凝胶）for people to put on their skin so they don’t have to take a bath. He wrote the formula（配方）for the gel on his mobile phone. When he was at university, he never stopped thinking about his invention. He started to talk to other people about it, and three years later, his dream came true. He made the gel and called it “DryBath”. Ludwick Marishane is the winner of lots of prizes. People call him “one of the brightest young men in the world”. He is very happy about his success. DryBath is helping people stay healthy. And DryBath also helps to save water. That’s important in many parts of the world where it’s difficult to find clean water. Now he wants to invent other things, and he wants to help other young people to become inventors too. 29. What did Ludwick and his friends talk about? A. How to get clean water. B. Protecting people from trachoma. C. Finding a way to avoid taking a bath. D. How to ask for help on the Internet. 30. What was the fact Ludwick found? A. Many people in Africa didn’t know how to reuse dirty water. B. Many people faced the difficulty of not having clean water. C. People didn’t realize the danger of trachoma. D. People cleaned their hands in wrong ways. 31. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. What encouraged Ludwick to create the gel. B. The advantages the gel gave to people. C. How Ludwick invented the gel. D. The huge popularity of the gel. 32. Which of the following can best describe Ludwick? A. Helpful and creative. B. Caring and honest. C. Brave and fearless. D. Kind and strict. 【答案】29. C 30. B 31. C 32. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，介绍了南非青年Ludwick Marishane发明免洗凝胶“DryBath”的背景、过程及意义。 【29题详解】 根据第一段第一句“...they started talking about inventing something to put on your skin so you don’t have to take a bath.”可知，Ludwick和朋友讨论的是发明一种可以涂抹在皮肤上从而不必洗澡的东西。选项C“Finding a way to avoid taking a bath.”（找到避免洗澡的方法）与此相符。A、B、D项文中未提及。 【30题详解】 根据第一段最后两句“He used his mobile...found a surprising fact: 2.5 billion people around the world haven’t got clean water. This is a huge problem...”可知，Ludwick发现的令人惊讶的事实是：全球25亿人没有干净水可用。选项B“Many people faced the difficulty of not having clean water.”（许多人面临缺少干净水的困难）与此相符。A、C、D项文中未提及。 【31题详解】 第二段按时间顺序讲述了Ludwick从产生想法、做研究、制定计划、写出配方，到大学期间继续推进、最终发明出DryBath的完整过程。选项C“How Ludwick invented the gel.”（Ludwick是如何发明这种凝胶的）准确概括了本段内容。A项“是什么鼓励了他”只在段首隐含提及，并非全段主旨；B项和D项涉及凝胶的优势和受欢迎程度，文中未在本段展开。 【32题详解】 全文多处体现Ludwick的品质：他因关注缺水地区人们的健康问题而发明DryBath，帮助人们保持健康并节约用水，体现了“helpful”（乐于助人）；他通过手机自学、独立写出配方并坚持三年实现梦想，体现了“creative”（有创造力）和“persistent”（坚持不懈），选项中“Helpful and creative”最为贴切。B项“honest”（诚实）文中未体现；C项“brave and fearless”（勇敢无畏）未突出；D项“strict”（严格）与文意无关。故对应选项A。 C Saihanba is China’s largest man-made forest. It lies to the south of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (内蒙古自治区). Saihanba means “beautiful and high mountains”. Around the 10th century, the rulers of the Liao Dynasty made it a royal (皇家的) hunting place because it was home to beautiful forests, green grasslands, clear lakes and different kinds of wild animals. Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty liked Saihanba so much that he made hunting there a royal festival. The royal festival finally stopped in 1860 because of no money and it had to be open to the public. After that, the cutting down of trees and wild fires changed green Saihanba into a grey desert. By the 1950s, the beauty of Saihanba had completely disappeared with only one tree left. The tree is now famous as “the Tree of Honour”. On seeing the tree, Chinese scientists made up their minds and dreamt of restoring Saihanba. In February, 1962, the plans were made and more than 120 foresters joined 242 local people in Saihanba to begin rebuilding it. Over the next 55 years, those first tree-planters fought against many difficulties to continue planting trees. After their deaths, their children and relatives followed their footsteps and went on with their hard work of planting trees. Today, the scientists’ dream has come true and beautiful grassland appears again around the tree of honour. Chinese people have successfully changed Saihanba in the past half-century. 33. What’s the right order of events given in Paragraph 2? ①Saihanba became a royal hunting place. ②Saihanba was a desert and disappeared. ③Saihanba wasn’t closed to the public anymore. ④Saihanba turned into a place for royal hunting festivals. A. ①③②④ B. ①③④② C. ①④③② D. ①④②③ 34. What does the underlined word “restoring” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Looking around. B. Bringing back. C. Arriving at. D. Travelling to. 35. According to Paragraph 4, how does the writer feel about Chinese people? A. Proud. B. Worried. C. Sad. D. Nervous. 36. Which might be the best title of this passage? A. Saihanba: Past and Present B. The largest desert in China C. The disappearing Saihanba D. The Tree of Honour in Saihanba 【答案】33. C 34. B 35. A 36. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，介绍了塞罕坝从皇家狩猎场到一片荒芜，再到如今绿意盎然的变迁过程，展现了中国人在塞罕坝植树造林所取得的伟大成就。 【33题详解】 第二段中“Around the 10th century, the rulers of the Liao Dynasty made it a royal hunting place”表明①Saihanba became a royal hunting place（塞罕坝成为皇家狩猎地）先发生；“Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty liked Saihanba so much that he made hunting there a royal festival”说明④Saihanba turned into a place for royal hunting festivals（塞罕坝变成了皇家狩猎节的地方）接着发生；“The royal festival finally stopped in 1860 because of no money and it had to be open to the public”显示③Saihanba wasn’t closed to the public anymore（塞罕坝不再对公众关闭）随后发生；“After that, the cutting down of trees and wild fires changed green Saihanba into a grey desert. By the 1950s, the beauty of Saihanba had completely disappeared”可知②Saihanba was a desert and disappeared（塞罕坝变成沙漠并消失了）最后发生。所以正确顺序是①④③②。 【34题详解】 根据第二段描述塞罕坝从绿意盎然变成一片荒芜，以及第三段“On seeing the tree, Chinese scientists made up their minds and dreamt of restoring Saihanba”可知，科学家们决心让塞罕坝恢复原样，所以“restoring”意思是“恢复，带回”，与B选项“Bringing back”意思相符。 【35题详解】 第四段“Today, the scientists’ dream has come true and beautiful grassland appears again around the tree of honour. Chinese people have successfully changed Saihanba in the past half-century”表明，作者看到塞罕坝如今的变化，认为中国人成功改变了塞罕坝，由此可推断作者对中国人是感到自豪的。 【36题详解】 文章先介绍了塞罕坝名字的含义，接着讲述它从皇家狩猎场到荒芜沙漠，再到如今绿意盎然的变迁过程，所以A选项“Saihanba: Past and Present”（塞罕坝：过去和现在）最能概括文章主旨。 D For two long years, I lived the life of a slave (奴隶). I wanted to run away, but it was never possible. My master liked to go fishing in a little boat, and he always took me with him. A man called Moely, and a young boy also went with us. One day my master said to us, “Some of my friends want to go fishing tomorrow. Get the boat ready.” So we put much food and drink on the boat, and the next morning, we waited for my master and his friends. But when my master arrived, he was alone. “My friends don’t want to go fishing today,” he said to me, “But you go with Moely and the boy, and catch some fish for our supper tonight.” “Yes, master,” I answered quickly, but inside I was excited, my chance came! We took the boat out to sea. For a time, we fished quietly, and then I moved carefully behind Moely and knocked him into the water. “Swim”! I cried. “Swim to the beach”! My master liked to shoot (射击) seabirds and so there were guns on the boat. Quickly, I took one of these guns. Moely was swimming after the boat and I shouted at him, “Go back to the shore, or I’ll shoot you through the head!” So Moely turned and swam back to the shore as quickly as possible. Then I said to the boy, “Xury, if you help me, I’ll be a good friend to you. If you don’t help me, I’ll push you into the sea, too.” But Xury was happy to help me. “I’ll go all over the world with you,” he cried. I wanted to sail to the Canary Islands, but I was afraid to go too far from the shore. And so we sailed on south for some days. We had very little water, and it was a dangerous country here, with many wild animals. Once I used a gun to shoot a wild animal. I didn’t know what animal it was, but it made a good meal. Later we managed to get more food and water, and we sailed on. Eleven days later we came near the Cape Verde Islands. Suddenly Xury saw a ship, we called and shouted and sailed our little boat as fast as possible. But the ship didn’t see us. Then I remembered the gun which made lots of smoke. Luckily, the ship saw us and turned. The Portuguese captain listened to my story. He was going to Brazil and agreed to help me. He bought my boat, and Xury, too. At first, I didn’t want to sell Xury as a slave, after all our dangerous adventures together. But Xury was happy to go to the captain and the captain was a good man. “In ten years’ time”, he said, “Xury can go free.” When we arrived in Brazil three weeks later, I said goodbye to the captain and Xury, left the ship, and… — Adapted from Robinson Crusoe 37. What can we infer from the words “my chance came!” in Paragraph2? A. He may run away from his master. B. He may eat a big meal with Moely. C. He may learn more about the sea. D. He may become the next master. 38. How many times did the writer use the gun in the passage? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. 39. Which of the following is TRUE about Xury? A.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了“我”作为奴隶，在主人让其与Moely和男孩出海捕鱼时，抓住机会计划逃跑，途中经历诸多波折，最终遇到葡萄牙船长并得到帮助，到达巴西的故事。 【37题详解】 文章第二段“ ‘Yes, master,’ I answered quickly, but inside I was excited, my chance came!” ，结合前文“I wanted to run away, but it was never possible.”可知，“我”一直想逃跑，此时主人让“我”和Moely、男孩去捕鱼，“我”觉得机会来了，由此可推断“我”可能会从主人那里逃跑。 【38题详解】 文章第四段“My master liked to shoot (射击) seabirds and so there were guns on the boat. Quickly, I took one of these guns.”以及第五段“Once I used a gun to shoot a wild animal.”和“Then I remembered the gun which made lots of smoke.” ，说明作者第一次拿枪威胁Moely，第二次用枪射击野兽，第三次用枪制造烟雾引起船只注意，共使用了三次枪。 【39题详解】 文章最后一段“But Xury was happy to go to the captain and the captain was a good man. ‘In ten years’ time’, he said, ‘Xury can go free.’ ” ，表明Xury同意和善良的船长待在一起。 【40题详解】 文章最后一段“When we arrived in Brazil three weeks later, I said goodbye to the captain and Xury, left the ship, and…” ，说明“我”到达巴西后，告别了船长和Xury，离开了船，由此可推断接下来“我”将在巴西开始新的生活。 第二节（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入各小题横线上的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Nowadays, more and more families choose road trips for their vacation.

My mother always tells me, “A smile ________ (花费) nothing, but it gives much”. 【答案】costs 【解析】 【详解】句意：我妈妈总是告诉我，“微笑不花一分钱，但却能给予很多”。根据汉语提示可知，cost“花费”，动词；根据“A smile...nothing”可知，句子陈述客观事实，时态为一般现在时，主语“A smile”是第三人称单数，谓语动词用其第三人称单数形式。故填costs。 47.

Deng Jiaxian is one of the greatest ________ (先锋，开拓者) in Chinese history who made great contributions to our country. 【答案】pioneers 【解析】 【详解】句意：邓稼先是中国历史上最伟大的先驱者之一。“先驱，开拓者”对应单词pioneer；one of+the+形容词最高级+可数名词复数，表示“最……之一”，因此名词pioneer需变为复数形式pioneers。 49. The writer always tries his best to answer ________ (读者) letters. 【答案】readers’ 【解析】 【详解】句意：这位作家总是尽力回复读者的来信。空格处修饰名词“letters”，表示所属关系，意为“读者的信”，需用名词所有格。“读者”对应的英文为“reader”，为可数名词。根据句意，作家回复的是多位读者的来信，故应用复数形式“readers”，其所有格在词尾加撇号（’），构成“readers’”。 50.

The g________ has decided to set spring and autumn holidays for students to relax. 【答案】government##overnment 【解析】 【详解】句意：政府已经决定为学生设立春秋假期以让他们放松。句中“has decided”是现在完成时的结构，表明句子缺少主语，结合语境及首字母为g可知，应是政府做出了这个决定，government“政府”，符合语境。 52. The Suqian team won ________ (more than two) matches in the Jiangsu Provincial City Football League. 【答案】several 【解析】 【详解】句意：宿迁队在江苏省城市足球联赛中赢了好几场比赛。more than two意为“超过两场，但数量不多”，常用于表示“几场”；several意为“几个”，相当于“more than two but not many”，符合语境。 53. Learning a foreign language well ________ (need) hard work and enough patience. 【答案】needs 【解析】 【详解】句意：学好一门外语需要努力工作和足够的耐心。此处需要一个动词，在句中作谓语。主语“Learning a foreign language well”是动名词短语，视为单数，且句子陈述一般事实，需用一般现在时，因此谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式needs。 六、根据短文内容，用括号内所给词的正确时态或形式填空，使短文完整。（共10小题； 每小题1分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，用括号内所给词的正确时态或形式填空，使短文完整。 Hanging red lanterns in front of the door is believed to drive away bad luck.

Around the 10th century, the rulers of the Liao Dynasty made it a royal (皇家的) hunting place because it was home to beautiful forests, green grasslands, clear lakes and different kinds of wild animals. Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty liked Saihanba so much that he made hunting there a royal festival. The royal festival finally stopped in 1860 because of no money and it had to be open to the public. After that, the cutting down of trees and wild fires changed green Saihanba into a grey desert. By the 1950s, the beauty of Saihanba had completely disappeared with only one tree left. The tree is now famous as “the Tree of Honour”. On seeing the tree, Chinese scientists made up their minds and dreamt of restoring Saihanba. In February, 1962, the plans were made and more than 120 foresters joined 242 local people in Saihanba to begin rebuilding it.

My master liked to go fishing in a little boat, and he always took me with him. A man called Moely, and a young boy also went with us. One day my master said to us, “Some of my friends want to go fishing tomorrow. Get the boat ready.” So we put much food and drink on the boat, and the next morning, we waited for my master and his friends. But when my master arrived, he was alone. “My friends don’t want to go fishing today,” he said to me, “But you go with Moely and the boy, and catch some fish for our supper tonight.” “Yes, master,” I answered quickly, but inside I was excited, my chance came! We took the boat out to sea. For a time, we fished quietly, and then I moved carefully behind Moely and knocked him into the water. “Swim”! I cried. “Swim to the beach”! My master liked to shoot (射击) seabirds and so there were guns on the boat. Quickly, I took one of these guns. Moely was swimming after the boat and I shouted at him, “Go back to the shore, or I’ll shoot you through the head!” So Moely turned and swam back to the shore as quickly as possible.

I wanted to sail to the Canary Islands, but I was afraid to go too far from the shore. And so we sailed on south for some days.

Later we managed to get more food and water, and we sailed on. Eleven days later we came near the Cape Verde Islands. Suddenly Xury saw a ship, we called and shouted and sailed our little boat as fast as possible. But the ship didn’t see us. Then I remembered the gun which made lots of smoke. Luckily, the ship saw us and turned. The Portuguese captain listened to my story. He was going to Brazil and agreed to help me. He bought my boat, and Xury, too. At first, I didn’t want to sell Xury as a slave, after all our dangerous adventures together.

This often leads to better performance in school subjects like math and science. Besides study benefits, music also provides emotional advantages. Many young people find that playing an instrument helps them express personal feelings and relax. Furthermore, being part of a school band teaches students valuable social and teamwork skills. They also build confidence through performing in front of people. As one high school student said, “The first time I played a song in a concert, I was scared. But after receiving applause (掌声), I felt very proud and more confident.” Then, how to pick a suitable instrument to learn? First, follow your favorite music style and personal interest.
