She often felt angry and hopeless. Everything changed when her teacher, Anne Sullivan, came into her life. Anne was strict but patient. She taught Helen that everything had a name. She spelled words into Helen’s hand. At first, Helen didn’t understand. One day, Anne put Helen’s hand under running water and spelled “W-A-T-E-R” on her other hand. Suddenly, Helen realized the secret of language. She understood that the cool, flowing thing was called “water”. From that day, she was thirsty for knowledge. Helen learned to read Braille with her fingers. She learned to write and type. She even learned to speak, though it was very difficult. Later, she went to college and became the first deaf-blind person to get a university degree. She traveled around the world, wrote books, and gave speeches to encourage people with difficulties. She said, “Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.” Helen’s story teaches us that with strong will, patience, and the right help, we can overcome great difficulties and become lifelong learners. 6.

Many people’s reactions (反应) can even put them in greater danger. One common but dangerous response (反应) is to freeze and do nothing. In scary situations, people’s brains may not work well, causing them to respond slowly. Sometimes, people don’t believe they are really in danger, so they ignore (忽视) what is happening. Moreover, stress makes clear thinking difficult. For example, during a house fire, people might risk their lives to run back into a burning building for their wallets without thinking. You should try to avoid this kind of situation for your safety. So, how can you improve your chances of surviving a disaster? The key is to be prepared in advance. Being prepared helps you act quickly without thinking too much. We can recognize (识别) danger early if we learn the warning signs of different natural disasters. You also need to be prepared, even after the danger passes. In big disasters like earthquakes or tsunamis (海啸), it takes time for rescuers (营救人员) to reach everyone in need. To increase your chance of survival (存活), make sure to have a disaster plan that includes escape (逃生) routes and a meeting place for your family. You should also prepare a first-aid kit. Learning how to avoid common mistakes and prepare properly for disasters may just save your life! 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 11. How does the writer start the text? A. By telling a moving story. B. By pointing out (指出) a common problem. C. By introducing a famous person. D. By listing some numbers. 12. What is a common but dangerous response people have during a disaster? A. They cry loudly. B. They freeze and do nothing. C. They try to save everyone around them. D. They immediately call for help. 13. Why does the writer suggest learning the warning signs of natural disasters? A. To become a scientist. B. To write a book about disasters. C. To ignore them completely. D. To recognize danger early. 14. Which of the following is NOT a suggestion from the text? A. Turn off the gas and electricity. B. Create a disaster plan with escape routes. C. Prepare a first-aid kit. D. Choose a meeting place for family. 15. What is the main purpose of this text? A. To tell exciting stories about disasters. B. To explain how different disasters form. C. To teach people how to prepare for disasters. D. To show what disasters are like. 【答案】11. B 12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了如何为灾难做准备以提高在灾难中的生存几率。 【11题详解】 文章开篇“In a disaster, you may not stay calm as you thought before. Many people’s reactions (反应) can even put them in greater danger.”指出在灾难中人们可能不会像之前想的那样保持冷静，很多人的反应甚至会让他们处于更大的危险中，这是在指出一个常见的问题，所以作者是通过指出一个常见问题来开始这篇文章的。 【12题详解】 根据第二段“One common but dangerous response (反应) is to freeze and do nothing. ”可知，在灾难中一种常见但危险的反应是僵住什么也不做。 【13题详解】 由第四段“We can recognize (识别) danger early if we learn the warning signs of different natural disasters.”可知，作者建议学习自然灾害的预警信号是为了能够尽早识别危险。 【14题详解】 文章第五段提到“To increase your chance of survival (存活), make sure to have a disaster plan that includes escape (逃跑) routes and a meeting place for your family. You should also prepare a first-aid kit.”，即制定包含逃生路线和家庭集合地点的灾难计划，准备急救箱。 【15题详解】 文章主要讲述了在灾难中人们常见的危险反应，以及如何提高在灾难中的生存几率，包括提前做好准备、学习自然灾害预警信号、制定灾难计划、准备急救箱等，整体是在教人们如何为灾难做准备。 阅读下面短文，从文后所给的A、B、C、D、E中，选出恰当的一项还原到文中合适的位置，使文章内容完整且符合逻辑。 Money may not buy happiness, but it helps.

With 44. us 45. the 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了大禹治水的故事。 【36题详解】 句意：洪水淹没了许多村庄。此处指“洪水淹没很多村庄”，与下文“冲毁了庄稼，让人们无家可归”语境相符，many后接可数名词复数，故用village的复数形式villages。 【37题详解】 句意：皇帝试了很多种方法，但直到禹出现之前，没有任何方法奏效。前文提到皇帝尝试很多方法都没有效果，but表示句意转折，提示皇帝的方法没有奏效，nothing“没有什么”符合语境。 【38题详解】 句意：禹的父亲修筑高墙挡水，但是洪水让情况变得更糟。上文指出禹的父亲修筑高墙挡水，but表示句意转折，even修饰形容词比较级，指“禹的父亲挡水的方法让情况变得更糟”，填bad的比较级worse。 【39题详解】 句意：禹想法不同。上文讲述禹的父亲修筑高墙挡水，下文讲述禹决定疏导洪水让它流走，可知，禹和父亲思路不同；修饰动词thought要用副词，填different的副词形式differently“不同地”。 【40题详解】 句意：他决定疏导洪水让它流走，而不是拦截它。下文“instead of stopping it”提示禹的方法不是堵而是疏；go away表示“流走”，符合禹疏导洪水而非阻挡洪水的思路， help后接动词原形。 【41题详解】 句意：他花了多年研究地形，走遍全国，跋山涉水，顶风冒雨，寻找能让洪水安全入海的路径。rain和storms是并列成分，用并列连词and连接。 【42题详解】 句意：禹和民众日夜劳作。此处指“禹和民众日夜劳作”，与下文“他们开挖河道疏导洪水”语义相符，故事发生在过去，用一般过去时，填动词work的过去式worked。 【43题详解】 句意：在人们的帮助下，他的方案最终成功了。with one’s help“在某人的帮助下”，与上文“禹和民众日夜劳作”语境相符，句首首字母大写。故填With。 【44题详解】 句意：他的故事教会了我们很多道理。动词teach后接人称代词宾格，we的宾格形式是us，符合“这个故事教会我们很多”的语境。 【45题详解】 句意：努力奋斗甚至可以解决世界上最大的难题。形容词最高级前要加定冠词the。 第二节 阅读短文，根据语篇要求填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词。 Students learn their lessons in class. They sit in the classroom paying attention ____46____ what their teachers say. This is one way of learning, but is it the only way? Of course not. There ____47____ another way: teaching themselves.

Read the text several times ____49____ you understand. ____50____, learn to raise questions and try to answer them yourself. 【答案】46. to 47. is 48. up 49. until##till 50. Second/Then/Next 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了学生学习的两种方式：课堂学习和自学，并说明了自学的具体方法。 【46题详解】 句意：他们坐在教室里，认真听老师讲课。固定搭配“pay attention to”意为“注意、关注”，因此填写介词“to”。 【47题详解】 句意：当然不是，还有另一种方式：自学。本句是“There be”句型，就近原则，主语“another way”为单数，be动词应用“is”。 【48题详解】 句意：例如，当他们有问题时，会在课本里查阅或上网搜索。句中“have a question”和“in the textbook”，表达“查阅资料”的含义；“look up”意为“查阅”，因此填写副词“up”。 【49题详解】 句意：反复阅读课文，直到你理解为止。此处表示“直到……为止”的时间逻辑，“until”和“till”均可引导时间状语从句。 【50题详解】 句意：其次/接下来，学会提出问题并尝试自己回答。根据前文的“First”可知，此处用于衔接自学方法的第二点，因此“Second”“Next”“Then”均符合语境，句首字母需大写。 五、补全对话（5小题，每小题2分，共10分） 根据下面的对话情景，在每个空白处填上一个适当的句子，使对话的意思连贯、完整。 A: Long time no see. __________51__________?

Every time I answered questions in class, my mind went blank. After failing an oral test, I realized I needed to change. My teacher suggested joining the English drama club.

When she was very young, she became very ill. After that, she could not see or hear. As a result, she also couldn’t speak. For a few years, she lived in a dark and silent world. She often felt angry and hopeless. Everything changed when her teacher, Anne Sullivan, came into her life. Anne was strict but patient. She taught Helen that everything had a name. She spelled words into Helen’s hand. At first, Helen didn’t understand. One day, Anne put Helen’s hand under running water and spelled “W-A-T-E-R” on her other hand. Suddenly, Helen realized the secret of language. She understood that the cool, flowing thing was called “water”. From that day, she was thirsty for knowledge. Helen learned to read Braille with her fingers. She learned to write and type. She even learned to speak, though it was very difficult. Later, she went to college and became the first deaf-blind person to get a university degree. She traveled around the world, wrote books, and gave speeches to encourage people with difficulties. She said, “Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.” Helen’s story teaches us that with strong will, patience, and the right help, we can overcome great difficulties and become lifelong learners. 6. What happened to Helen Keller when she was young? A. She couldn’t see or hear. B. She couldn’t walk. C. She lost her family. D. She moved to another country. 7. How did Anne Sullivan teach Helen the word “water”? A. By showing her a picture of water. B. By spelling it into her hand while letting her feel real water. C. By writing it on paper. D. By saying it loudly many times. 8. What does “thirsty for knowledge” mean in Paragraph 2? A. Wanting to drink water very much. B. Having a strong desire to learn. C. Feeling tired of studying. D. Being good at asking questions. 9. What did Helen Keller do after she grew up? A. She became a teacher for the deaf and blind. B. She stayed at home and wrote diaries. C. She traveled, wrote books, and encouraged others. D. She invented a new language for the blind. 10. What is the most important lesson from Helen’s story? A. Learning languages is very easy. B. People with disabilities cannot be successful. C. With strong will and help, we can overcome difficulties and keep learning. D. Only teachers can change a person’s life. C In a disaster, you may not stay calm as you thought before. Many people’s reactions (反应) can even put them in greater danger. One common but dangerous response (反应) is to freeze and do nothing. In scary situations, people’s brains may not work well, causing them to respond slowly. Sometimes, people don’t believe they are really in danger, so they ignore (忽视) what is happening. Moreover, stress makes clear thinking difficult. For example, during a house fire, people might risk their lives to run back into a burning building for their wallets without thinking. You should try to avoid this kind of situation for your safety. So, how can you improve your chances of surviving a disaster? The key is to be prepared in advance. Being prepared helps you act quickly without thinking too much. We can recognize (识别) danger early if we learn the warning signs of different natural disasters. You also need to be prepared, even after the danger passes. In big disasters like earthquakes or tsunamis (海啸), it takes time for rescuers (营救人员) to reach everyone in need. To increase your chance of survival (存活), make sure to have a disaster plan that includes escape (逃生) routes and a meeting place for your family. You should also prepare a first-aid kit. Learning how to avoid common mistakes and prepare properly for disasters may just save your life! 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 11. How does the writer start the text? A. By telling a moving story. B.

They freeze and do nothing. C. They try to save everyone around them. D. They immediately call for help. 13. Why does the writer suggest learning the warning signs of natural disasters? A. To become a scientist. B. To write a book about disasters. C. To ignore them completely. D. To recognize danger early. 14. Which of the following is NOT a suggestion from the text? A. Turn off the gas and electricity. B. Create a disaster plan with escape routes. C. Prepare a first-aid kit. D. Choose a meeting place for family. 15. What is the main purpose of this text? A.
