—________. Some hard housework can be regarded as a kind of physical exercise.
A. Much better B. It’s not a big deal
C. I don’t mind D. I couldn’t agree more
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——做一些家务能使我们健康强壮。——我再同意不过了。一些繁重的家务可以被视为一种体育锻炼。
Much better好多了;It’s not a big deal没什么大不了的;I don’t mind我不介意;I couldn’t agree more我完全同意。根据答语后句“Some hard housework can be regarded as a kind of physical exercise.”可知,说话者进一步阐述了家务劳动的好处,是对前句观点的支持和赞同。D项为表示强烈赞同的交际用语,符合逻辑。
2. —Jack, can I talk to you about my plans for the summer holiday, please?
—________. I’m all ears.
A. Never mind B. I see C. I’m afraid not D. Go ahead
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——杰克,我能和你谈谈我的暑假计划吗?——请说。我洗耳恭听。
考查情景交际。Never mind没关系;I see我知道了;I’m afraid not恐怕不是;Go ahead说吧。根据“I’m all ears”可知是让对方说,自己洗耳恭听,选项D符合语境。故选D。
3. —I’m surprised that he can make anything you can imagine.
—So am I. Tables, sofas, cupboards, ________.
A. you said it B. I got it C. you name it D. I mean it

考查情景交际。you said it你说对了;I got it我明白了;you name it凡是你能说得出的;I mean it我是认真的。根据“Tables, sofas, cupboards…”,可知空处表示“凡是你能说得出的”。故选C。
4. — The history teacher showed us a video about Wuhan’s old streets. There were so many details! I couldn’t ________ all of them in class.
— Maybe we should watch it again after school.
A. take off B. take in C. take out D. take up
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——历史老师给我们看了一段关于武汉老街的视频。细节太多了!我在课堂上无法理解所有的细节。——也许我们应该放学后再看一遍。
take off起飞、脱下;take in理解、吸收;take out取出;take up占据。根据“There were so many details!”以及后文建议“watch it again”可知,说话人表示信息量大,课堂上无法完全消化。“take in理解、吸收”符合语境。
5. — In the past, we ________ newspapers for information about what was happening, but now it changes.
— Yes. Now we read news online.
A. gave up B. depended on
C. turned off D. turned on
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——在过去,我们依赖报纸获得时政信息,但是现在变了。——是的。现在我们在网上读新闻。
考查动词短语辨析。gave up放弃;depended on依靠;turned off关闭;turned on打开。根据“newspapers”和“for information about what was happening”可知应是依赖报纸获得信息,故选B。
6. —The new science museum ________ since last month. Many students have visited it.
—Wow, I can’t wait to go there!
A. opens B. opened C. has been open D. was opened
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——这家新科学博物馆自从上个月以来一直开放。许多学生已经参观过它了。——哇,我迫不及待想去那里!
根据时间状语“since last month”可知,句子应用现在完成时,排除A、B、D。且open作动词是非延续性动词,不能与时间段连用,需转化为系表结构“be open”表示状态。故选“has been open”。
7. —The old couple looked so excited. What happened?
—Their son is coming back from America. ________ of them will go to the airport to pick him up.
A. All B. Both C. Neither D. None
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——这对老夫妇看起来很兴奋。发生什么事了?——他们的儿子要从美国回来了。他们俩都将去机场接他。
考查代词辨析。All(三者及以上)全部;Both(两者)都;Neither(两者)都不;None(三者及以上)都不。根据“The old couple”可知是老夫妇两个人,结合语境儿子回来两人都去接机,用“Both”。故选B。
8. —During the Wuhan Marathon, thousands of people ________ the streets to cheer for the runners.
—That’s why Wuhan is called a “City of Enthusiasm”!
A. cross B. clean C. line D. miss
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——在武汉马拉松期间,成千上万的人站满街道为跑步者加油。——那就是为什么武汉被称为“热情之城”!
cross穿过;clean打扫;line沿……排列成行;miss错过。根据“cheer for the runners”可知人们是站在街道两旁加油,“line the streets”意为“站满街道”,符合句意。
9. —Mom, I can help take care of Angel and walk her after dinner.
—Oh, that’s a really great ________, Harry!
A. offer B. interest C. invitation D. change
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——妈妈,晚饭后我可以帮忙照顾Angel并遛它。——哦,那真是一个很好的提议,Harry!
offer提议;interest兴趣;invitation邀请;change改变。根据“I can help take care of Angel and walk her after dinner.”可知,Harry主动提出帮忙照顾宠物,这是一种主动的提议,妈妈对此表示称赞。应填offer。
10. The idiom “Repair the house before it rains” tells us ________.
A. what can we learn from our mistakes
B. that it is important to make preparations ahead of time
C. when we should repair the house
D. what can we do before it rains
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:“未雨绸缪”这个成语告诉我们提前做准备很重要。
考查宾语从句的语序和习语。what can we learn from our mistakes我们能从错误中学到什么;that it is important to make preparations ahead of time提前做准备很重要;when we should repair the house我们应该什么时候修理房子;what can we do before it rains下雨前我们能做什么。宾语从句要用陈述句语序,A和D是疑问句语序,不符合要求。“Repair the house before it rains”“未雨绸缪”表达的是提前做准备的意思,B选项符合。故选B。

According to a report on balcony (阳台) gardening, Shanghai, Dongguan and Beijing are among the top five cities for vegetable growers, who are mainly in their 20s and 30s. Coriander (香菜), chives (韭菜), chili peppers and tomatoes are the most popular choices.

B
As you grow older, you’ll be faced with some challenging decisions like whether to cut class or try cigarettes (香烟). Making decisions on your own is hard enough, but when other people take part in and try to pressure you one way or another it can be even harder. People who are your age, like your classmates, are called peers(同龄人). When they try to influence how you act, to get you to do something, it’s called peer pressure.
Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system (太阳系). Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book, and now everyone’s reading it. These are examples of how peers positively influence each other.
Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them. Your soccer friend might try to convince(使信服) you to be mean to another player and never pass him the ball.
It is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.
You’ve probably had a parent or teacher advising you to “choose your friends wisely.” Peer pressure is a big reason why they say this. If you choose friends who don’t cut class, smoke cigarettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably won’t do these things either, even if other kids do.
If you continue to face peer pressure and you’re finding it difficult to deal with, talk to someone you trust. Don’t feel guilty (内疚) if you’ve made a mistake or two.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

One winter morning, Tapiwa Chiwewe was driving to work in Johannesburg, South Africa. He noticed a heavy smog hanging over the city and it didn’t take long for him to realize that it was a huge cloud of air pollution.
At that moment, Chiwewe wanted to do something about it, but didn’t know what to do. He was a computer engineer and knew little about environmental science.
He first did research on air pollution and found that it is the world’s biggest environmental health risk. He decided to work on it together with others. He talked to scientists, officials, and engineers who helped him develop a deeper understanding of the situation, as well as an idea to improve it.
Through years of work, Chiwewe and his coworkers from South Africa and China created an online air quality decision support system (系统). Based on historical and real-time data, the system can correctly predict air pollution and air quality, which can help people make better decisions about their daily movements, as well as help officials better manage their operations.
Chiwewe learned an important lesson—a lesson we all need to take into heart if we are to work towards a better future. “Even if you’re not an expert (专家) in a particular field, your outside expert knowledge and skills may hold the key to solving problems within that field,” he said.
What if Chiwewe hadn’t bothered to research the problem and do something about it?What if he had just hoped that someone, somewhere, was taking care of the matter?
As Chiwewe said, “Why not just go ahead and deal with the problem as well as you can, in your own way? You may be pleasantly surprised.”
36. Chiwewe wanted to take action because ________.
A. he didn’t know what the cloud was
B. he noticed air pollution over his city
C. he didn’t want to be a computer engineer any more
D. he was an expert in environmental science
37. In Paragraph 4, the underlined word “which” refers to ________.
A. air pollution B. air quality
C. the system D. the operations
38. From his experience, Chiwewe learned that ________.
A. one’s outside expert knowledge and skills can be helpful
B. some work can be done only by experts
C. different jobs need different skills
D. we should work hard for the environment
39. In the writer’s eyes, Chiwewe is ________.
A. kind and generous B. responsible and creative
C. honest and brave D. simple and free
40. The writer’s purpose of writing the passage is to ________.
A. show the seriousness of pollution B. explain how Chiwewe did the research
C. stress the importance of taking action D. encourage people to work with others
【答案】36. B 37. C 38. A 39. B 40. C
【解析】

【41题详解】
句意:我们需要水来维持生命,如果不节约用水,水就会被耗尽!此处需要一个动词短语,在句中表示“维持生命、活下去”的目的。上下文提到“没有水我们都会死亡”,提示水是生存必需的,所以选择stay alive。

Door-to-door delivery
E-commerce giant JD.COM has recently used smart delivery vehicles to Jiading District to help with delivering supplies during the lockdown of local communities. The unmanned car arrives at the designated (指定的) building before it stops itself. After people input their pick-up code, the vehicle’s door automatically opens. The smart vehicles help shorten the whole delivery process from more than two hours to less than 10 minutes now.
In the first quarter of this year, sales of vegetable seeds on Tmall doubled, when compared to the same period last year. According to a report on balcony (阳台) gardening, Shanghai, Dongguan and Beijing are among the top five cities for vegetable growers, who are mainly in their 20s and 30s. Coriander (香菜), chives (韭菜), chili peppers and tomatoes are the most popular choices.
Lovely towels
Cat lovers shouldn’t have trouble finding the right products to decorate their home with. There are already plenty of them out there. Now, you can have these cat-shaped towels to dry your hands. Whether you choose to use them in the bathroom, the kitchen or somewhere else, they’re sure to add a little joy to your day!
26. In which SECTION of the newspaper can we read the news?
A. LIFE. B. TECHNOLOGY. C. BUSINESS. D. ANIMALS.
27. According to the first piece of news, why did JD use smart delivery vehicles?
A. It can create hot news for JD. B. It can help JD save labor.
C. It can show the creativity of JD. D. It can help buyers receive their goods faster.
28. The best heading for the second piece of news would be ________.
A. Let’s keep to a diet B. Eat more vegetables

As you grow older, you’ll be faced with some challenging decisions like whether to cut class or try cigarettes (香烟). Making decisions on your own is hard enough, but when other people take part in and try to pressure you one way or another it can be even harder. People who are your age, like your classmates, are called peers(同龄人). When they try to influence how you act, to get you to do something, it’s called peer pressure.
Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system (太阳系). Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book, and now everyone’s reading it. These are examples of how peers positively influence each other.
Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them. Your soccer friend might try to convince(使信服) you to be mean to another player and never pass him the ball.
It is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.
You’ve probably had a parent or teacher advising you to “choose your friends wisely.” Peer pressure is a big reason why they say this. If you choose friends who don’t cut class, smoke cigarettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably won’t do these things either, even if other kids do.
If you continue to face peer pressure and you’re finding it difficult to deal with, talk to someone you trust. Don’t feel guilty (内疚) if you’ve made a mistake or two.

One winter morning, Tapiwa Chiwewe was driving to work in Johannesburg, South Africa. He noticed a heavy smog hanging over the city and it didn’t take long for him to realize that it was a huge cloud of air pollution.
At that moment, Chiwewe wanted to do something about it, but didn’t know what to do. He was a computer engineer and knew little about environmental science.
He first did research on air pollution and found that it is the world’s biggest environmental health risk. He decided to work on it together with others. He talked to scientists, officials, and engineers who helped him develop a deeper understanding of the situation, as well as an idea to improve it.
Through years of work, Chiwewe and his coworkers from South Africa and China created an online air quality decision support system (系统). Based on historical and real-time data, the system can correctly predict air pollution and air quality, which can help people make better decisions about their daily movements, as well as help officials better manage their operations.
Chiwewe learned an important lesson—a lesson we all need to take into heart if we are to work towards a better future. “Even if you’re not an expert (专家) in a particular field, your outside expert knowledge and skills may hold the key to solving problems within that field,” he said.
What if Chiwewe hadn’t bothered to research the problem and do something about it?What if he had just hoped that someone, somewhere, was taking care of the matter?
As Chiwewe said, “Why not just go ahead and deal with the problem as well as you can, in your own way? You may be pleasantly surprised.”
36. Chiwewe wanted to take action because ________.
A. he didn’t know what the cloud was
B. he noticed air pollution over his city
C. he didn’t want to be a computer engineer any more
D. he was an expert in environmental science
37. In Paragraph 4, the underlined word “which” refers to ________.
A. air pollution B. air quality
C. the system D. the operations
38. From his experience, Chiwewe learned that ________.
A. one’s outside expert knowledge and skills can be helpful
B. some work can be done only by experts
C. different jobs need different skills
D. we should work hard for the environment
39. In the writer’s eyes, Chiwewe is ________.
A. kind and generous B. responsible and creative
C. honest and brave D. simple and free
40. The writer’s purpose of writing the passage is to ________.
A. show the seriousness of pollution B. explain how Chiwewe did the research
C. stress the importance of taking action D. encourage people to work with others
