A. it B. them C. this D. that 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：我发现加入英语俱乐部很有趣。 it它；them他们；this这个；that那个。根据固定结构“find it + 形容词 + to do sth.”，it作形式宾语，指代后面的不定式“to join an English club”，应填it。 19.

A. grow; grow B. grow; are grown C. is grown; grow D. is grown; is grown 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你能告诉我中国哪里种植棉花吗？——嗯，中国北方的人们种植很多棉花。 第一空主语cotton(棉花)和动词grow(种植)之间是被动关系(棉花“被种植”)，且cotton是不可数名词，因此要用一般现在时的被动语态is grown；第二空主语people(人们)和动词grow之间是主动关系(人们“种植”棉花)，因此要用grow。 21. —________ is it from our school to the railway station? —About 30 minutes by underground. A. How far B. How long C. How soon D.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了两个朋友在沙漠旅行中，一人被打后将伤害写在沙上，被救后将恩情刻在石头上，以此说明要宽容伤害、铭记恩情的哲理故事。 【26题详解】 句意：在旅途中，他们发生了争吵，其中一个朋友打了另一个朋友的脸。 根据上下文，他们在沙漠行走的过程中发生争吵，应用During“在……期间”；Before“在……之前”、For“为了”、After“在……之后”均不符合语境。 【27题详解】 句意：在旅途中，他们发生了争吵，其中一个朋友打了另一个朋友的脸。 前文提到“two friends”，表示两者中的另一个，应用the other；some“一些”、another“（三者及以上的）另一个”、each“每个”均不符合语境。 【28题详解】 句意：被打的人很受伤，但他什么也没说。 前后句为转折关系，受伤了却没有说什么，应用but；and表并列、or表选择、So表因果，均不符合逻辑。 【29题详解】 句意：他们继续走，直到找到一片绿洲。 根据前文“were walking through the desert”，他们一直在行走，应用walking；jumping“跳”、running“跑”、singing“唱歌”均不符合沙漠中旅行的语境。 【30题详解】 句意：被打的朋友掉进泥潭里有危险，但他的朋友救了他。 根据后文“saved my life”，此处是朋友救了他，应用saved；hurt“伤害”、left“离开”、hit“打”均不符合语境。 【31题详解】 句意：当他感觉没事了，他在石头上写道：“今天我最好的朋友救了我的命。” 后文提到“write it on a stone”，此处应是写在石头上，应用a stone；the sand“沙子”、the desert“沙漠”、a tree“树”均不符合后文提示。 【32题详解】 句意：我伤害你之后，你写在沙子上，现在却写在石头上。 根据前文“one friend hit…one in the face”，此处指伤害了对方，应用hurt；helped“帮助”、quarreled with“和……争吵”、complained to“向……抱怨”均不符合语境。 【33题详解】 句意：为什么？ 朋友对对方不同的做法感到疑惑，询问原因，应用Why；How“如何”、What“什么”、When“什么时候”均不符合语境。 【34题详解】 句意：当有人伤害我们时，我们应该把它写在沙子上，宽恕的风会把它吹走。 此处指代前文提到的“someone hurts us”这件事，应用it；them“它们”、these“这些”、this“这个”均不符合指代逻辑。 【35题详解】 句意：但当有人为我们做了好事，我们必须把它写在石头上，没有风能把它吹走。 与前文“hurts us”形成对比，此处指做了好事，应用good；harmful“有害的”、dangerous“危险的”、interesting“有趣的”均不符合语境。 三、阅读理解（每小题2分，共20分) A There once lived a rich businessman who had a lazy son. The businessman wanted his son to realize the value of labor. One day, he told his son, “Today, I want you to earn something. If you fail, you won’t have your meal tonight.” The boy didn’t want to find a job, so he asked his mother for help. She gave him a gold coin. In the evening, when the father asked his son what he had earned, the son showed him the gold coin. The father then asked him to throw it into the well (水井). The son did as he was told. The father guessed that the gold was from the boy’s mother. The next day, he sent his wife to her parents’ home and asked his son to earn something. Since no one helped him, the son had to go to the market to look for a job. A shopkeeper told him that he would pay him a coin if he carried heavy tools for him. The son accepted. As he returned home and gave the coin to his father, he was asked to throw it into the well. The boy cried, “Dad! My body is aching. I’m tired. How are you asking me to throw my hard-earned coin into a well?” The businessman smiled. He told his son that one feels pain only when the fruits of labor are wasted. The son realized the value of hard work. He promised not to be lazy any more. 36. Who helped the son when he was asked to earn something for the first time? A. His father. B. His mother. C. His sister. D. The shopkeeper. 37. The underlined word “aching” has a similar meaning to “ ________ ”. A. painful B. hopeful C. helpful D. powerful 38. Why did the father ask the boy to throw his coin into the well? A. To fill the well. B. To check if the coin is real. C. To keep the coin for the boy. D. To check if the boy had earned the coin by himself. 39. How did the son feel when his father asked him to throw the coin into the well again? A. Surprised. B. Sad. C. Excited. D. Relaxed. 40. The story is mainly about ________. A. a wise father B. a gold coin C. the fruits of labor D. a lazy boy 【答案】36. B 37. A 38. D 39. B 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了一位富商通过让懒惰的儿子亲自去挣钱，并要求其将钱扔进水井中，以此教育儿子领悟劳动成果的珍贵和汗水的价值。 【36题详解】 第三段提到儿子第一次被要求挣钱时：“…so he asked his mother for help. She gave him a gold coin.”，这明确说明了第一次是母亲提供了帮助。 【37题详解】 第四段提到儿子在搬运重物后说：“My body is aching. I’m tired.”，结合前文描述他辛苦工作的背景以及感到疲劳的语境，推断aching意为“疼痛的”，与painful词义相近。 【38题详解】 文中描述了两次扔钱的情况。第一次儿子拿着母亲给的钱时：“The son did as he was told.”；而第二次干完活后他却拒绝：“How are you asking me to throw my hard-earned coin…?”。通过这种对比可以推断，父亲此举是为了核实钱是否为儿子亲手所挣。 【39题详解】 根据第四段中“The boy cried…”以及最后一段父亲解释道：“…one feels pain only when the fruits of labor are wasted.”可知，当儿子被要求扔掉自己辛苦汗水换来的金币时，他感到了“痛苦”并哭了出来，这说明他当时的心情是十分伤心且心疼的。 【40题详解】 文章首段提到：“The businessman wanted his son to realize the value of labor.”，且结尾升华主题：“…one feels pain only when the fruits of labor are wasted.”，全文始终围绕劳动的果实这一核心主题展开。 B When I was very young, people in our village lived by planting fruit trees. My grandmother always took me to the orchard (果园) on the hill. At that time, they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill to halfway up the hill. Even though we worked so hard, the production level of fruit was still low because it was short of water there. One day, two young men led a group of workers to our village. They learned about the difficulties we faced, and later, canals and other projects began to be built in my village. “Who are they?” I asked. “They are good men from our government,” my grandma replied. Shortly afterwards, I moved to another city for my junior high school. The only reason I ever came back to my hometown was my grandmother. One day, my family and I made time to return. We were surprised because everything had changed. The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn’t have to go up and down the hill anymore. The river was now so clean that fish swam happily in it. When we arrived home, my grandma took out some fresh pears and apples. She told us that after the water conservation project (水利工程) was completed, a policy (政策) was made to encourage more people to increase the fruit production with clean water in the river. Thank those good men who have devoted themselves to the development of the countryside. Nowadays, people work hard to live in a big city. However, we should not forget our hometowns where we are from. 41. What troubled the villagers most was that ________. A. they had too much work B. it was not convenient to go up the hill C. they could only grow fruit trees D. there wasn’t enough water in the orchard 42. The good men came and offered help probably because of ________. A. the villagers’ suggestions B. the government’s support C. a school’s practical activity D. a company’s engineering plan 43. We can infer from the passage that ________. A. the grandmother doesn’t like to live in the city B. the village is a place of interest for tourists now C. there will be more fruit production in the village D. more people like to work in the countryside nowadays 44. The underlined phrase “devoted themselves to” is closest in meaning to ________. A. prepared much for B. donated money to C. drawn public attention to D. put much effort into 45. What can be the best title for the passage? A. How is a village improved? B. Who are the good men? C. Why do people come back? D. What does a hometown mean? 【答案】41. D 42. B 43. C 44. D 45. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者家乡由于缺水导致水果产量低，后来在政府的支持下通过兴建水利工程，使家乡面貌焕然一新，表达了作者对家乡建设者的感激之情。 【41题详解】 第一段提到：“…the production level of fruit was still low because it was short of water there.”，这直接说明了果园缺水是当时困扰村民、导致减产的最主要问题。 【42题详解】 第二段中奶奶回答道：“They are good men from our government,”，由此可知，这些来提供帮助的人员隶属于政府，说明家乡的改变源于政府的支持。 【43题详解】 第三段提到：“…after the water conservation project was completed, a policy was made to encourage more people to increase the fruit production…”，根据水利工程已完工且政府出台政策鼓励生产的事实，可以推断出未来村里的水果产量将会增加。 【44题详解】 最后一段提到：“Thank those good men who have devoted themselves to the development of the countryside.”，结合这些建设者们通过实地调研并带领工人修建水利工程的行为可知，他们为农村发展付出了巨大的精力和努力，故该短语意为“投入大量精力”。 【45题详解】 全篇叙述了家乡从过去因缺水而贫困，到政府派遣人员修建水利设施，再到如今环境优美、生产便利的转变过程。选项A“村庄是如何改善的？”最能概括文章的核心内容。 四、补全对话（每小题1分，共5分) A: Kelly, could you please tell me something about Easter?

One day, he told his son, “Today, I want you to earn something. If you fail, you won’t have your meal tonight.” The boy didn’t want to find a job, so he asked his mother for help. She gave him a gold coin. In the evening, when the father asked his son what he had earned, the son showed him the gold coin. The father then asked him to throw it into the well (水井). The son did as he was told. The father guessed that the gold was from the boy’s mother. The next day, he sent his wife to her parents’ home and asked his son to earn something. Since no one helped him, the son had to go to the market to look for a job. A shopkeeper told him that he would pay him a coin if he carried heavy tools for him. The son accepted. As he returned home and gave the coin to his father, he was asked to throw it into the well. The boy cried, “Dad! My body is aching. I’m tired. How are you asking me to throw my hard-earned coin into a well?” The businessman smiled. He told his son that one feels pain only when the fruits of labor are wasted.

The story is mainly about ________. A. a wise father B. a gold coin C. the fruits of labor D. a lazy boy B When I was very young, people in our village lived by planting fruit trees. My grandmother always took me to the orchard (果园) on the hill. At that time, they had to carry water from the river at the foot of the hill to halfway up the hill. Even though we worked so hard, the production level of fruit was still low because it was short of water there. One day, two young men led a group of workers to our village. They learned about the difficulties we faced, and later, canals and other projects began to be built in my village. “Who are they?” I asked. “They are good men from our government,” my grandma replied. Shortly afterwards, I moved to another city for my junior high school. The only reason I ever came back to my hometown was my grandmother. One day, my family and I made time to return. We were surprised because everything had changed. The canal ran past every orchard so villagers didn’t have to go up and down the hill anymore. The river was now so clean that fish swam happily in it. When we arrived home, my grandma took out some fresh pears and apples. She told us that after the water conservation project (水利工程) was completed, a policy (政策) was made to encourage more people to increase the fruit production with clean water in the river. Thank those good men who have devoted themselves to the development of the countryside. Nowadays, people work hard to live in a big city. However, we should not forget our hometowns where we are from. 41. What troubled the villagers most was that ________.

What can be the best title for the passage? A. How is a village improved? B. Who are the good men? C. Why do people come back? D. What does a hometown mean? 四、补全对话（每小题1分，共5分) A: Kelly, could you please tell me something about Easter? B: Yes. ____46____ It celebrates the beginning of new life.
