By the second day of spring vacation, Colby and Logan began to feel bored. Logan came up with an idea. “Let’s visit Grandma’s new neighbor, Mrs. Wilson. She has a dog!” Logan said.
When Colby and Logan got to Mrs. Wilson’s house, the boys said hello to Mrs. Wilson and asked, “Can we play with your dog?”

After running after the dog for a while, the boys were tired. Mrs. Wilson offered them orange juice. As they drank, they saw her digging something dark from a box.
“What’s that?” Logan asked.
“It’s compost (堆肥),” Mrs. Wilson explained. “It’s made from kitchen waste, leaves, and grass that break down into rich soil (土壤). It helps plants grow.”
“Can we help?” the boys asked. Mrs. Wilson smiled and let them put the compost in her garden (花园).
Over the next few days, the two boys visited Mrs. Wilson more times. They helped her plant seeds (种子).
When spring vacation ended, the boys went home to their parents in the city. Then, when summer came, the boys returned to their grandmother’s house for vacation again. The first thing they did was visit Mrs. Wilson.
What a surprise! The garden was full of green plants. Squash was all over the garden beds, and carrots were growing under the soil. Still, there was more work to do. The boys helped pull weeds (拔草) and pick vegetables.
“This is fun!” Logan said. “I want to be a gardener.”

【50题详解】
文中倒数第四段提到“The garden was full of green plants. Squash was all over the garden beds, and carrots were growing under the soil.”,说明花园里长满了绿色植物,Squash遍布在花坛上,胡萝卜在土壤下生长,由此可知Squash是一种植物。
【51题详解】

Koalas are one of Australia’s most famous animals, but they often have to face danger when crossing roads. To help keep them safe, a city in Queensland, Australia, has come up with a new idea: setting up “doggy doors” along the roads that koalas might try to cross.
The special doors, called the Fauna Escape Hatch, are made to allow koalas to get away from busy roads without letting them go back. The doors only open one way, so when koalas go through the doors, they cannot return to the road.
A group called Endeavour Veterinary Ecology (EVE) is behind the idea. They tested the doors for a year in the city of Moreton Bay. Michael Hornby, a worker of EVE, says, “With more than 900,000 kilometers of roads across Australia, we need ways for koalas and other animals to move safely.” He is excited that these doors may help.
Koalas usually try to cross roads to find mates or new homes from July to December. It is hoped that the new “doggy doors” will help reduce (减少) the number of koalas dying on roads in Queensland.
Peter Flannery, the mayor (市长) of Moreton Bay, says they are already seeing good results, although they have only set up 16 of these doors so far. “This test has just begun, but we already see very encouraging (鼓舞人心的) results!” he says.
52. What’s special about the “doggy doors”?
A. They only open one way.
B. They close by themselves.
C. They are the idea of an animal lover.
53. Why does the writer write about the long roads in Paragraph 3?
A. To describe the history of Australian roads.
B. To describe how hard it is for koalas to find food.
C. To show why it’s important to set up safe ways for animals.
54. How might the number of road accidents that happen to koalas in Queensland change in the following months?
A. B. C.
55. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. The future of koalas in Queensland
B. Helping koalas cross roads safely
C. Giving koalas their homes back
【答案】52. A 53. C 54. B 55. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了澳大利亚昆士兰州为帮助考拉安全过马路而采取的新举措——设置“狗狗门”,介绍了这种门的特性、设置目的、测试情况以及取得的初步成果等。
【52题详解】
第二段明确指出门的特性:“The doors only open one way, so when koalas go through the doors, they cannot return to the road”,说明“狗狗门”的特别之处在于它们只单向打开。
【53题详解】
第三段提到长路相关内容:“With more than 900,000 kilometers of roads across Australia, we need ways for koalas and other animals to move safely”,作者写澳大利亚的长路是为了表明为动物设置安全通道的重要性。
【54题详解】
第四段提到:“It is hoped that the new ‘doggy doors’ will help reduce (减少) the number of koalas dying on roads in Queensland”,说明在接下来的几个月里,昆士兰州考拉遭遇的道路事故数量可能会减少,选项B图示符合描述。
【55题详解】
文章主要围绕帮助考拉安全过马路展开,介绍了设置“狗狗门”这一举措,“Helping koalas cross roads safely”最能概括文章主旨,是最佳标题。

【导语】本文讲述了诸葛亮利用草船借箭的智慧故事,他在三天内从曹操军队那里得到十万多支箭。
【56题详解】
第二段提到时间:“I’ll bring you 100,000 arrows in three days.”,说明诸葛亮为周瑜获取箭的时间是三天。
【57题详解】
第四段提到“attack”所在句子:“When Cao Cao’s soldiers heard the sounds, they thought they were under attack.”,结合语境可知曹操的士兵听到声音后以为自己受到了攻击,所以“attack”意思是“攻击”。
【58题详解】
第四段提到:“Cao Cao ordered his soldiers to shoot arrows towards the sounds of the drums and the shouting.”,说明曹操命令他的士兵朝着鼓声和喊叫声射箭。
【59题详解】
最后一段提到:“Zhuge Liang took all these arrows to Zhou Yu. There were more than 100,000 of them.”以及前文描述可知,诸葛亮是从曹操那里得到了这些箭。
【60题详解】
文章主要讲述了诸葛亮利用草船向曹操“借”箭的故事,所以最佳标题是“Borrow Arrows with Straw Boats”。

____63____ In everyday life, people don’t use all of their body muscles (肌肉) at the same time. But through all kinds of activities of the day, all muscles are used. ____64____

【解析】
【导语】本文主要反驳了“人只使用了10%的大脑”这一错误观点,指出大脑实际上100%都被使用,并解释了大脑的不同区域在不同时间被激活的工作原理。
【61题详解】
前文指出人们认为如果能使用更多大脑,就能拥有更好的记忆力或更容易理解难的课程,后文说明科学家发现大脑使用了100%的空间,A选项“But this is not true!”用转折承接前文,直接反驳了“只使用10%大脑”的观点,为后文科学发现作铺垫。
【62题详解】
前文指出科学家检查大脑工作方式时没有发现任何等待被使用的大脑区域,后文说明即使休息或睡觉时大脑某些区域仍在工作,D选项“That’s to say, every part of the brain plays a special role.”总结了前文的研究发现,指出每个大脑区域都有特殊作用,与后文关于大脑持续工作的内容形成逻辑关系。
【63题详解】
后文指出日常生活中人们不会同时使用所有肌肉,但通过一天的各种活动,所有肌肉都会被用到,E选项“However, it’s true that people don’t use all parts of their brains at the same time.”以转折引出关于大脑运作方式的类比,与后文肌肉使用的类比形成呼应。
【64题详解】
前文通过肌肉使用的类比说明大脑的工作原理,B选项“Our brains work like this.”概括了大脑与肌肉的工作方式相似,与前文关于类比的内容形成逻辑关系。
【65题详解】
前文指出大脑是神奇的,后文说明我们应该通过学习新事物和保持探索来让大脑更好地工作,C选项“It can help us learn, create, and imagine.”具体描述了大脑的能力,与前后文关于大脑功能的内容形成逻辑关系。

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】例文
Help with Some Housework
Some people think students needn’t do any housework. I disagree. I think it’s very important for children to do chores at home.
First, doing housework helps develop our independence. When we learn to cook or clean, we become less dependent on our parents. Second, it helps keep our bodies healthy and strong. Housework like sweeping or washing is a kind of exercise. Third, doing chores also helps share parents’ heavy work. They are tired after a long day’s work, and our help can make them feel warm and loved.
In a word, doing housework is good for us and our family. Let’s start from small things every day!

By the second day of spring vacation, Colby and Logan began to feel bored. Logan came up with an idea. “Let’s visit Grandma’s new neighbor, Mrs. Wilson. She has a dog!” Logan said.
When Colby and Logan got to Mrs. Wilson’s house, the boys said hello to Mrs. Wilson and asked, “Can we play with your dog?”
“Sure!” Mrs. Wilson said with a smile.
After running after the dog for a while, the boys were tired. Mrs. Wilson offered them orange juice. As they drank, they saw her digging something dark from a box.
“What’s that?” Logan asked.
“It’s compost (堆肥),” Mrs. Wilson explained. “It’s made from kitchen waste, leaves, and grass that break down into rich soil (土壤). It helps plants grow.”
“Can we help?” the boys asked. Mrs. Wilson smiled and let them put the compost in her garden (花园).
Over the next few days, the two boys visited Mrs. Wilson more times. They helped her plant seeds (种子).
When spring vacation ended, the boys went home to their parents in the city. Then, when summer came, the boys returned to their grandmother’s house for vacation again. The first thing they did was visit Mrs. Wilson.
What a surprise! The garden was full of green plants. Squash was all over the garden beds, and carrots were growing under the soil. Still, there was more work to do. The boys helped pull weeds (拔草) and pick vegetables.
“This is fun!” Logan said. “I want to be a gardener.”
“Me too!” Colby added.
Mrs. Wilson smiled. “You’re already gardeners!” she said, handing them a bag of vegetables.

Koalas are one of Australia’s most famous animals, but they often have to face danger when crossing roads. To help keep them safe, a city in Queensland, Australia, has come up with a new idea: setting up “doggy doors” along the roads that koalas might try to cross.
The special doors, called the Fauna Escape Hatch, are made to allow koalas to get away from busy roads without letting them go back. The doors only open one way, so when koalas go through the doors, they cannot return to the road.
A group called Endeavour Veterinary Ecology (EVE) is behind the idea. They tested the doors for a year in the city of Moreton Bay. Michael Hornby, a worker of EVE, says, “With more than 900,000 kilometers of roads across Australia, we need ways for koalas and other animals to move safely.” He is excited that these doors may help.
Koalas usually try to cross roads to find mates or new homes from July to December. It is hoped that the new “doggy doors” will help reduce (减少) the number of koalas dying on roads in Queensland.
Peter Flannery, the mayor (市长) of Moreton Bay, says they are already seeing good results, although they have only set up 16 of these doors so far. “This test has just begun, but we already see very encouraging (鼓舞人心的) results!” he says.
52. What’s special about the “doggy doors”?
A. They only open one way.
B. They close by themselves.
C. They are the idea of an animal lover.
53. Why does the writer write about the long roads in Paragraph 3?
A. To describe the history of Australian roads.
B. To describe how hard it is for koalas to find food.
C. To show why it’s important to set up safe ways for animals.
54. How might the number of road accidents that happen to koalas in Queensland change in the following months?
A. B. C.
55. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. The future of koalas in Queensland
B. Helping koalas cross roads safely
C. Giving koalas their homes back
