A young girl from Brooklyn enjoys summer fun with her friends. The book is based on the writer's life.As a girl, Woodson spent long days outdoors. She jumped rope in the street. Night and day, she and her friends had a good time. How do the pictures add to the story? They bring the story to life. They show all the fun the writer and her friends had in Brooklyn during the summer. Pictures are a great way for young readers to piece the story together.

C At eleven the next night I bring one hundred thousand dollars in banknotes to the police station and put them into the chief's（警长）hands. He takes the money and leaves, with a confident look in his eyes. The next hour passes slowly and when I hear his footsteps I get up to meet him. His eyes are happy as he says. "We' ve made an agreement! Follow me!" He picks up a candle and walks down into the basement of the building. SixtyMark Twain detectives（侦探）always sleep here, and a group of them are playing cards when we come into the room. I follow him as he walks quickly to the far end of the basement.It is dark and frightening and there is a very bad smell. I feel sick and want to go back. Suddenly Detective Blunt falls over a large object, shouting as he falls:"Here is your elephant!" Someone carries me to the office above, where I come to my senses once again. Reporters arrive and detectives open bottles of champagne and shake hands and talk warmly. Naturally the chief is the hero and his happiness is complete. I am happy for him although now I am like a beggar, my elephant is dead, and I have no job. Many people congratulate the chief and many detectives say, "Look at him, the greatest man of the police. There isn't anything that he can't find." The happy detectives share the fifty thousand dollars and the chief says, as he puts his share into his pocket:"Enjoy it, boys; you've earned it. And more than that, you've made the police force famous." And so the mystery of the stolen elephant is solved. The next day the newspapers are full of good words. But, The poor elephant Hassan is lost forever. When he was shot he went into the dark, unfriendly place in the fog, and there, surrounded by his enemies and constant danger of detection, he died of hunger. The"agreement" cost me one hundred thousand dollars; my detective expenses（费用）were forty-two thousand dollars more. I lost my job. I am a ruined man and a wanderer on the earth. But I still admire that man, the greatest detective in the world. And I will admire him until the day I die. （Adapted from The Stolen White Elephant） 17.

For many kids, staring at the stars leads to daydreams about what it would be like to be an astronaut. Just think about how amazing it would be to set foot on the moon or another planet! Although it sounds like it would be great fun to travel to outer space, it would be a lot of work, too. Traveling to outer space needs lots and lots of preparation. Once you are in space, nothing can come on board and nothing can go out. You must take all you need into outer space to keep yourself alive. Let's call these things" inputs", including food, water and oxygen. Every input creates an output. If you open a box of cookies for breakfast, what will you do with the box when it's empty? Every piece of rubbish you create in space will remain on the ship with you. Your body will also output food and water. Since nothing can leave the spaceship, you will have to think of another way to deal with these bodily wastes. Even breathing creates an output carbon dioxide（二氧化碳）! It's true that plants depend on carbon dioxide in the same way humans depend on oxygen to breathe. However, plants have other input needs. If you take a banana tree with you, you will need to bring enough water to keep it alive. You must also consider another type of output rubbish in the ship after taking the fruit as snacks-the banana peel. See how carefully you have to plan for a trip to outer space? How can you plan your actions on earth to have the least influence on the environment and your future? Not only do you have to think about all the things you' ll need, you will also have to consider the influence of those things because of the wastes they may create. 21. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs? A. It's challenging to travel in space. B. It's boring to live on the moon. C. It's relaxing to stare at the stars. D. It's difficult to be an astronaut. 22. What do we know about the input in space? A. It will make astronauts sleepy. B. It only means things to eat and drink. C. It is quite important to astronauts. D. It can help astronauts deal with rubbish. 23. Which of the following is an"output" according to paragraph 3? A. Some cookies. B Food and water. C. Your oxygen mask. D. The empty cookie box. 24. What does the 4th paragraph mainly talk about? A. The reason why breathing creates an output. B. A way to plant a banana tree in space successfully. C. The reason why plants depend on carbon dioxide. D. A way to deal with carbon dioxide in the spaceship. 25. What can be the best title for the passage? A. How to prepare for a trip to outer space B. How to deal with wastes in the spaceship C. Differences between inputs and outputs D. Different ways to deal with wastes in space 三、信息还原（本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分） British culture has changed a lot over the years. __26__ Many years ago, people spent most of their free time reading books or listening to the radio at home.

In the past, people had to turn to travel companies to organize their trips. But today, online travel platforms allow us to plan journeys by ourselves at home through their artificial intelligence (AI). Expedia has Romie, its"AI-powered travel buddy", Trip.com has TripGenie and Booking.com has introduced its own AI helper called Trip Planner. One big attraction of these AI travel tools is that it can free people from tiring and repetitive work. For those who find holiday booking stressful, personalized AI travel plans can be very convenient. For example, AI can help design a romantic trip according to people's preferences, like"heart-shaped beds", according to Rob Francis, Booking.com's chief technologist. But, these AI travel tools are still in the early stages and far from perfect. During a test, TripGenie recommended a hotel near the airport in Paris as a romantic choice for a new couple, which was clearly not a good choice. Besides, AI cannot fully understand everyone's different tastes. Not everyone shares the same idea of a romantic trip. AI travel helpers also have risks. They can give wrong information, as once happened to Air Canada. Travellers were even tricked into booking expensive flights or giving money to advertisers. However, big travel websites have a lot of data, such as hotel rooms and user reviews, so they still have strong advantages with these AI tools. Their market values are even higher than last year. 51. What is the AI tool of Booking.com? _________________________________________________________________ 52. What kind of people may think AI tools are convenient? _________________________________________________________________ 53. Where was the hotel that TripGenie recommended for a new couple? _________________________________________________________________ 54. Why does the author mention Air Canada in the 4th paragraph? _________________________________________________________________ 55. What do you think of travel AI tools? _________________________________________________________________ 七、书面表达（本大题共20分） 56.随着中国免签政策的实施，许多外国友人来到你的家乡旅游。他们震惊于中国科技飞速发展对生活带来的巨大变化。请根据下图用英语提示向他们介绍科技如何改变我们的生活和学习。 注意： 1.词数不少于90词，开头已给出，不计入总词数； 2.不得出现真实校名和姓名。 How technology has changed our lives Over the past few years, technology has greatly changed our lives, especially in lifestyle and study.____________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 答案： 一、完形填空 1-5 DBCBC 6-10 BBDBC 二、阅读理解 11-13 CAB 14-16 DBA 17-20 DBBC 21-25 ACDDA 三、信息还原 26-30 FDCAB 四、词汇运用 31. excellent 32. admire 33. artworks 34. whether 35. continue 36. creativity 37. historic 38. recently 39. twice 40. unable 五、动词填空 41. to play 42. has gone 43. saw 44. will build 45. stands 46.
