A. won’t rain; will have B. doesn’t rain; will have C. isn’t rain; have D. doesn’t rain; have 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：如果明天不下雨，我们将在公园里野餐。 根据“If it...tomorrow, we...a picnic in the park.”可知，这是一个条件状语从句，遵循“主将从现”原则，即主句用一般将来时，从句用一般现在时。从句中主语it是第三人称单数，所以否定形式用doesn’t rain；主句用一般将来时，即will have。 2. The boy ________ father is a famous scientist is my classmate. A. who B. which C. that D. whose 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：父亲是著名科学家的那个男孩是我的同学。 who谁；which哪一个；that那个；whose谁的。先行词是the boy，关系词需要在从句中作定语，修饰名词father，所以选whose。 3. —I haven’t seen your sister for a long time. Where is she? —She ________ to Shanghai. She ________ there for two months. A. has gone; has been B. has been; has gone C. has gone; has gone D. has been; has been 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我很久没见到你妹妹了。她在哪里？——她去了上海。她已经在那里待两个月了。 have/has gone to表示去了某地（尚未返回）；have/has been to表示去过某地（已返回）；have/has been in + 地点表示待在某地（持续一段时间），此处there为副词，省略in，用have/has been there。根据问句“很久没见到”可知妹妹此刻不在现场，第一空用has gone；第二空后有for two months（时间段），强调持续停留的状态，用has been。应填has gone；has been。 4. This is the most beautiful city ________ I have ever visited. A. which B. that C. where D. what 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：这是我曾经参观过的最美丽的城市。 which哪一个；that那/那个；where在哪里；what什么。分析句子可知，空格处引导定语从句，先行词是city，被最高级the most beautiful修饰，且引导词在从句中作visited的宾语，当先行词被最高级修饰时，关系代词只能用that，不能用which。 5. The old man used to ________ up early, but now he is used to ________ up late. A. get; get B. getting; getting C. get; getting D. getting; get 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：这位老人过去常常起床很早，但现在他习惯了起床很晚。 used to do sth过去常常做某事；be used to doing sth习惯做某事。根据“The old man used to... up early,”可知，此处表示“过去常常做某事”，后接动词原形，第一空填get；根据“but now he is used to...”可知，此处表示“习惯做某事”，后接动名词，应用getting。 6. —________ have you been in the club? —Since two years ago. A. How long B. How often C. How far D. How soon 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你在俱乐部待了多久？——自从两年前。 How long多长时间，提问时间段；How often多久一次，提问频率；How far多远，提问距离；How soon多久以后，提问将来时间。根据“have you been”和答语“Since two years ago.”可知，此处是对时间段进行提问，时态是现在完成时，应填How long。 7. The movie was ________ boring ________ I left the cinema halfway. A. so; that B. such; that C. too; to D. enough; to 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：这部电影如此无聊以至于我看到一半就离开了电影院。 so...that...如此……以至于（so修饰形容词/副词）；such...that...如此……以至于（such修饰名词）；too...to...太……而不能；enough...to...足够……去做。句中“boring”为形容词，且后半句是完整句子，应用so...that结构引导结果状语从句。 8. He asked me ________ I could help him with his math. A. that B. if C. what D. which 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：他问我是否能帮助他学数学。 that引导陈述句的宾语从句；if是否，引导一般疑问句作为宾语时使用；what什么；which哪一个。主句动词asked 意为“问”，表明从句由一般疑问句转化而来，所以用if 引导。 9. —What’s your hobby? —________ model planes is my hobby. A. Make B. Makes C. Making D. Made 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你的爱好是什么？——制作模型飞机是我的爱好。 根据“...model planes is my hobby.”可知，空处位于句首作主语，表示“制作模型飞机”这一爱好活动，动词作主语需用动名词形式。应填Making。 10. The population of this city ________ about five million, and two-thirds of the population ________ farmers. A. is; are B. are; is C. is; is D. are; are 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：这个城市的人口大约是五百万。并且三分之二的人口是农民。 “population”表示“人口”时，作主语，谓语动词用单数形式，所以第一空用“is”；“two-thirds of the population”表示“三分之二的人口”，此时“population”强调的是个体的人，谓语动词用复数形式，所以第二空用“are”。 11. The girl is ________ to go to school. A. enough old B. old enough C. too old D. so old 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：这个女孩年龄足够大可以去上学了。 enough修饰形容词时须放在形容词之后，old enough足够大；too old 太大，too +adj.+to do sth.表示“太……而不能”；so old如此大。本句固定结构“adj. + enough + to do sth.”表示“足够……去做某事”。 12. —I’m sorry I ________ my homework at home. —Don’t forget ________ it to school tomorrow. A. left; to bring B. forgot; to bring C. left; bringing D. forgot; bringing 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——抱歉，我把作业落在家里了。——明天别忘了把它带到学校来。 left离开，遗漏，忘带；forgot忘记；bring带来。第一空根据“…my homework at home”可知是指把作业落在家里，用leave sth.+地点表示“把某物落在某地”，排除B和D；第二空根据“tomorrow”可知动作尚未发生，forget to do sth.是固定搭配，意为“忘记去做某事”，应用动词不定式to bring，故选A。 13. —________ fine weather it is! Let’s go for a picnic. —Good idea. A. What B. What a C. How D. How a 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——今天天气多好啊！咱们去野餐吧。——好主意。 考查感叹句。what和how均可引导感叹句，what引导感叹句时，结构为“What+形容词+不可数名词+主语+谓语！”；how引导感叹句时，结构为“How +形容词/副词+主语+谓语！”，weather是不可数名词，需用what引导。故选A。 14. —I don’t like this movie. It’s too boring. —________. A. So do I B. So I do C. Neither do I D. Neither I do 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我不喜欢这部电影。它太无聊了。——我也不喜欢。 So do I意为“我也一样”，用于肯定句的附和；So I do 意为“我确实如此”；Neither do I意为“我也不”；Neither I do 语序错误。表示“某人也不……”时，用“Neither/Nor+助动词/系动词/情态动词+主语”结构。根据上句“I don’t like this movie.”为否定句，助动词为“do”，所以用“Neither do I”。 15. —I think students should be allowed to bring mobile phones to school. —________. It’s bad for their study. A. I agree with you B. I disagree with you C. I think so D. That’s a good idea 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我认为应该允许学生带手机到学校。——我不同意你的观点。这对他们的学习有害。 I agree with you我同意你；I disagree with you我不同意你；I think so我也这么想；That’s a good idea好主意。根据答语后句“It’s bad for their study.”可知，回答者认为带手机对学习有害，因此不同意对方的观点，应填I disagree with you。 16. The teacher told us that the Earth ________ around the sun. A. moved B. moves C. was moving D. had moved 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：老师告诉我们地球绕着太阳转。 虽然主句“The teacher told us”是一般过去时，但从句描述的是客观事实，不受主句时态影响，始终用一般现在时，主语the earth为第三人称单数，动词用第三人称单数形式。 17.

A. look for B. look after C. look at D. look up 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：这个小男孩太小了，不能照顾他自己。 look for寻找；look after照顾；look at看；look up查找。根据“too young”和“himself”可知，此处指太小了，无法“照顾”自己，应填look after。 18.

A. write B. wrote C. written D. writing 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：莫言写的那本书非常受欢迎。 考查非谓语动词。根据“The book ... by Mo Yan”可知，是指由莫言写的那本书，written by“由……所写”，过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰The book。故选C。 19. —________ you ever ________ to the Great Wall? —Yes, I have.

A. which B. whom C. who D. whose 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：正在和我们的老师说话的那个男人是贝蒂的父亲。 which哪个，指物；whom谁，宾格；who谁，主格；whose谁的。先行词“The man”指人，且在定语从句中充当主语，因此用关系代词who来引导。 23.

The music ________ by Tan Dun sounds really wonderful. A. was written B. written C. writing D. writes 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：谭盾创作的这首音乐听起来真的很美妙。 句中已有谓语动词sounds，故空处需用非谓语动词作定语修饰music。music与write之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词written。 25. —What’s wrong with you? —I have a ________.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者初中时热爱弹吉他，但因父母担心影响学习而放弃。高中时学业繁忙无暇练习，进入大学后重新开始学吉他，并决心坚持下去的故事。 【26题详解】 句意：每天放学后我都想弹吉他。 根据“When I was a junior high school student”可知时态是一般过去时，所以此处用过去式wanted，want是原形，will want是一般将来时，am wanting是现在进行时，均不符合语境。 【27题详解】 句意：他们觉得这会影响我的学习。 父母不允许弹吉他的理由是担心“影响”学习，affect“影响”。improve“提高”、help“帮助”、develop“发展”均不符合担忧的逻辑。 【28题详解】 句意：我非常难过。 父母不允许做自己喜欢的事，心情应是“难过的”，sad“难过的”。happy“开心的”、excited“兴奋的”、interested“感兴趣的”均不符合。 【29题详解】 句意：我不明白他们为什么这么严格。 父母禁止弹吉他，作者认为他们太“严格”，strict“严格的”。kind“和善的”、friendly“友好的”、patient“耐心的”均与禁止行为矛盾。 【30题详解】 句意：我长大后想成为一名吉他手。 根据“I wanted to be a guitarist”可知时态是一般过去时，所以此处用过去式grew，grow是原形，will grow是一般将来时，am growing是现在进行时，均不符合语境。 【31题详解】 句意：进入高中后，我有很多作业要做。 homework为不可数名词，用much修饰，表示“很多”，much“许多”。many修饰可数名词复数，few“很少”，修饰可数名词复数，little“很少”，修饰不可数名词，均不符合“作业多”的语境。 【32题详解】 句意：我没有任何时间弹吉他。 根据“I was really busy”可知很忙，所以是没有任何时间弹吉他，any用于否定句表示“任何”，some用于肯定句，no不符合语境，much表示很多不符合很忙没时间的情况。 【33题详解】 句意：我想重新开始弹吉他。 上文说忘了怎么弹吉他，现在想重新开始，take up“开始从事”符合。give up“放弃”、put up“张贴”、look up“查阅”均不符合语境。 【34题详解】 句意：我知道学好它会花我很长时间。 It takes sb. time to do sth.“做某事花费某人时间”，固定句型，take“花费”。spend主语为人（sb. spends time doing sth.）、cost主语为物（sth. costs sb. money）、pay主语为人（sb. pays money for sth.），均不符合本句结构。 【35题详解】 句意：我相信我最终能做到。 经过努力练习，最终能够成功，应用finally“最终”。first“首先”、quickly“快速地”、easily“容易地”均不符合坚持后的结果。 Ⅳ. 阅读理解（共 30 分） （A） In the United States, people like to say “Thank you” when others help them or say something kind to them. People of many other countries do so, too. It is a very good habit. You should say “Thank you” when someone passes you something on the table, when someone opens the door for you, when someone says you have done your work well, or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is very beautiful. “Thank you” is used not only between friends, but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters, husbands and wives. “Excuse me” is another short sentence they use. When you hear someone say so behind you, you know that somebody wants to walk past you without touching you. It’s not polite to interrupt (打断) others when they are talking. If you want to speak to one of them, say “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking. You should also do so when you want to cough or make any unpleasant noise before others. Let’s all learn to say “Thank you” and “Excuse me”. 36. People say “Thank you” ________. A. only in the United States B. all over the world C. in many countries D. only between friends 37. People usually say “Thank you” when ________. A. someone opens the door for them B. someone makes them unhappy C. someone wants to walk past them D. someone interrupts them 38. From the passage we know “Thank you” is _____. A. widely used in the world B. used more often than “Excuse me” C. used only by Americans D. used only between parents and children 39. When you want to cough before others, you should say “________” first. A. I’m sorry B. Thank you C. Excuse me D. I’m happy 40. It’s polite to ________ when someone is talking. A. interrupt others B. say “Thank you” C. say “Excuse me” D. not interrupt others 【答案】36. C 37. A 38. A 39. C 40. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍英语礼貌用语“Thank you”和“Excuse me”的使用场合，强调它们是日常生活中的好习惯。 【36题详解】 文章第一段提到：“In the United States, people like to say ‘Thank you’... People of many other countries do so, too.”，说明“Thank you”不仅在美国使用，很多国家的人也会用。选项“all over the world”范围过大，原文只提到“许多国家”。 【37题详解】 文章第二段第一句：“You should say ‘Thank you’ when someone passes you something on the table, when someone opens the door for you...”，当有人把桌子上的东西递给你时，当有人为你开门时，你应该说“谢谢”。其他三个选项：让别人不开心、想从身边走过、打断别人，都不是说“Thank you”的场合。 【38题详解】 文章第一段说明美国及许多其他国家的人都用“Thank you”；第二段说明它不仅用于朋友之间，也用于父母与孩子、兄弟姐妹、夫妻之间。因此它是“在世界上广泛使用”。其他选项（只被美国人使用、只用于父母与孩子之间）与原文明显不符；文中未比较“Thank you”和“Excuse me”的使用频率。 【39题详解】 文章第三段最后一句：“You should also do so when you want to cough or make any unpleasant noise before others.”，当你想在别人面前咳嗽或发出任何令人不快的声音时，你也应该这样做，这里的“do so”指代前面的“say ‘Excuse me’”。 【40题详解】 文章第三段第二句：“It’s not polite to interrupt (打断) others when they are talking.”，所以礼貌的做法是“不打断别人”。其他选项中，“说‘谢谢’”或“说‘打扰了’”与“当别人正在说话时”这个条件不直接对应，而本题强调的是“礼貌的做法”是什么。 （B） The Silk Road is the name of different roads that long ago connected Europe, Africa and Asia. People reached these different places along these roads. Scientists believe people began to travel the Silk Road about 3,000 years ago. By the time the Chinese silk trade became important in the world, the Silk Road covered almost 6,500 kilometers. It spread from Rome to China, which is from the West to the Far East. Businessmen travelled along the Silk Road to carry silk, of course. They also carried and traded other things like spices (香料), cloth, jewels and gold. Along and around these ancient paths (小路), have come many fascinating and mysterious stories. It is said that Roman soldiers who lost a war travelled through central Asia. They decided to live somewhere near the ancient Chinese villages. Some of these Romans married local Chinese women and the legend of the blonde-haired, blue-eyed tribes (部落) of China was started. Some historians believe that the people of Kashmir were taken away from their homes by foreign invaders (侵略者) and most were killed. Others were sold as slaves (奴隶). But those who survived travelled to other places through the Silk Road. They kept their Kashmir culture alive in other parts of the world. During its busiest period, the Silk Road allowed people from many different cultures and countries to meet each other and mix. The Silk Road allowed the sharing of valuable things and new ideas. It included people and trading goods from different areas. All these people travelled the Silk Road, and they shared goods, stories, languages, and cultures. In modern times, the old Silk Road routes (路线) are still used, but now they are crossed by trains instead of camels and horses. There is even a Silk Route Museum in Jiuquan in China. It has over 35,000 objects from all along the Silk Road. In this way, China protects the history of many countries and peoples. 41. How many kilometers did the Silk Road cover? A. About 3,000. B.

What happened to the people of Kashmir according to the passage? A. They lived a happy life. B. They lost their lives. C. Most of them were killed or sold as slaves. D. They travelled to other places and kept their culture alive. 45. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. The Silk Road was only used for business. B. The Silk Road is not important in modern times. C. China protects the history of many countries and peoples through the Silk Road. D. People only shared goods along the Silk Road. 【答案】41. B 42. D 43. B 44. C 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了丝绸之路的历史、贸易内容、相关故事以及在现代的意义。丝绸之路连接了欧洲、非洲和亚洲，不仅促进了贸易往来，还促进了文化和思想的交流。在现代，丝绸之路的路线仍然在使用，并且中国通过丝绸之路保护了许多国家和民族的历史。 【41题详解】 文章第一段指出“By the time the Chinese silk trade became important in the world, the Silk Road covered almost 6,500 kilometers.”，直接说明了丝绸之路覆盖了近6500公里。 【42题详解】 文章第二段指出“Businessmen travelled along the Silk Road to carry silk, of course.

It reflects the changes of seasons, climate and phenology (物候). The 24 Solar Terms was created thousands of years ago.

On this day, people in the north of China eat dumplings, while people in the south eat tangyuan. The 24 Solar Terms is also closely related to Chinese culture. Many poems, paintings and proverbs are created based on it. For example, “White Dew (白露) is the time when the weather starts to get cool, and the dewdrops on the grass are white.

It has changed the way we live, work and study. However, it also brings some problems. The Internet makes it easy for us to get information. We can search for knowledge about different subjects, read the latest news, and even watch educational videos. But too much information can be overwhelming. Some people spend hours looking through endless news and videos, which can be a waste of time. It also makes communication much easier. We can talk to friends and family members who live far away through video calls, send emails, and chat on social media. But at the same time, some people may spend too much time online, ignoring real-life relationships. Moreover, online shopping has become very popular. We can buy almost anything with just a few clicks. But there are risks, such as the quality of the products and personal information safety. In a word, we should use the Internet wisely to make the most of its advantages while avoiding its disadvantages. 1~2题完成句子；3题简略回答问题；4题找出并写下全文的主题句；5题将文中画线句子译成汉语。 61.

The ________ (excite) children are looking forward to the school trip. 【答案】excited 【解析】 【详解】句意：兴奋的孩子们正期待着学校组织的旅行。此处需要形容词修饰“children”（孩子们），表示人的主观感受，“ed”结尾形容词表示“感到……的”，用于人，故填excited（兴奋的）。 72. My father ________ (drive) to work every day. 【答案】drives 【解析】 【详解】句意：我的父亲每天开车去上班。根据“My father...every day.”及提示词可知，every day表明句子时态是一般现在时，主语My father是第三人称单数，谓语动词drive要用三单形式drives。故填drives。 73. It’s ________ (danger) to play football in the street. 【答案】dangerous 【解析】 【详解】句意：在街上踢足球是危险的。danger“危险”，是名词，分析可知句子为it is+adj.+to do sth.“做某事是怎样的”结构，所以此处应填其形容词形式，dangerous“危险的”符合语境，故填dangerous。 74.

People of many other countries do so, too. It is a very good habit. You should say “Thank you” when someone passes you something on the table, when someone opens the door for you, when someone says you have done your work well, or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is very beautiful. “Thank you” is used not only between friends, but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters, husbands and wives. “Excuse me” is another short sentence they use. When you hear someone say so behind you, you know that somebody wants to walk past you without touching you. It’s not polite to interrupt (打断) others when they are talking. If you want to speak to one of them, say “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking. You should also do so when you want to cough or make any unpleasant noise before others. Let’s all learn to say “Thank you” and “Excuse me”. 36. People say “Thank you” ________. A. only in the United States B. all over the world C. in many countries D. only between friends 37.

People reached these different places along these roads. Scientists believe people began to travel the Silk Road about 3,000 years ago. By the time the Chinese silk trade became important in the world, the Silk Road covered almost 6,500 kilometers. It spread from Rome to China, which is from the West to the Far East. Businessmen travelled along the Silk Road to carry silk, of course. They also carried and traded other things like spices (香料), cloth, jewels and gold. Along and around these ancient paths (小路), have come many fascinating and mysterious stories. It is said that Roman soldiers who lost a war travelled through central Asia. They decided to live somewhere near the ancient Chinese villages. Some of these Romans married local Chinese women and the legend of the blonde-haired, blue-eyed tribes (部落) of China was started. Some historians believe that the people of Kashmir were taken away from their homes by foreign invaders (侵略者) and most were killed. Others were sold as slaves (奴隶). But those who survived travelled to other places through the Silk Road. They kept their Kashmir culture alive in other parts of the world. During its busiest period, the Silk Road allowed people from many different cultures and countries to meet each other and mix. The Silk Road allowed the sharing of valuable things and new ideas. It included people and trading goods from different areas. All these people travelled the Silk Road, and they shared goods, stories, languages, and cultures. In modern times, the old Silk Road routes (路线) are still used, but now they are crossed by trains instead of camels and horses. There is even a Silk Route Museum in Jiuquan in China. It has over 35,000 objects from all along the Silk Road. In this way, China protects the history of many countries and peoples. 41. How many kilometers did the Silk Road cover? A. About 3,000. B. Nearly 6,500. C. Almost 2,000. D. Over 35,000. 42. What did the businessmen trade along the Silk Road? A. Silk. B. Cloth. C. Spices, jewels and gold. D. All of the above. 43. Who married local Chinese women in the story of blonde-haired, blue-eyed tribes of China? A. Asian soldiers. B. European soldiers. C. African soldiers. D. American soldiers. 44. What happened to the people of Kashmir according to the passage? A. They lived a happy life. B. They lost their lives. C. Most of them were killed or sold as slaves. D. They travelled to other places and kept their culture alive. 45. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. The Silk Road was only used for business. B. The Silk Road is not important in modern times. C. China protects the history of many countries and peoples through the Silk Road. D. People only shared goods along the Silk Road. （C） The 24 Solar Terms (节气) is a knowledge system and social practice formed through people’s observation of the sun’s annual motion (运动) in China. It reflects the changes of seasons, climate and phenology (物候). The 24 Solar Terms was created thousands of years ago. It was used by farmers to know when to sow (播种), when to harvest and other agricultural activities. For example, “Lichun” means the start of spring. When it comes, the temperature rises, the ground thaws (解冻), and farmers begin to plow (犁地) the fields. “Xiaoman” means that the grains of wheat are full but not ripe yet. It’s a time for farmers to water the crops. The 24 Solar Terms is not only about farming. It also has a deep influence on Chinese people’s daily life. People celebrate festivals according to the Solar Terms. For example, the Winter Solstice (冬至) is an important festival. On this day, people in the north of China eat dumplings, while people in the south eat tangyuan. The 24 Solar Terms is also closely related to Chinese culture.

We can talk to friends and family members who live far away through video calls, send emails, and chat on social media.
