B
Do you get much exercise sitting in a classroom or an office all day? If your answer is “No”, try to exercise more often. If you do not use your arms for some time, they will become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everyone knows, yet people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When somebody says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault (错误). But if he tells us he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to be blamed (责备) and few of us know it is also his own fault.
Have you ever found some people can’t read or write but they usually remember days, names, songs and stories? Because their memories are being exercised the whole time.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people and practice remembering.
19. When we see a man with strong arms and legs, he may ________.
A. do little exercise B. use them very often C. sit quietly all day D. become weak slowly
20. Paragraph 4 implies (暗示) the fact that ________.
A. adults can hardly practice their memories
B. people have saved much trouble in reading or writing today
C. most of us can remember days, names, songs and stories clearly
D. some people can’t read or write but their memories are quite good
【答案】19. B 20. D
【解析】
【导语】本文通过将记忆力与肌肉锻炼类比,说明了记忆力需要通过不断使用来增强,指出记忆力差的根本原因是缺乏练习,而非遗传。
【19题详解】
根据原文第一段“If you do not use your arms for some time, they will become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again.”,可知四肢强壮的人,是因为经常使用、锻炼它们。
【20题详解】
根据原文第四段“Have you ever found some people can’t read or write but they usually remember days, names, songs and stories? Because their memories are being exercised the whole time.”,可知作者想暗示,一些人虽然不识字,但因为一直锻炼记忆力,所以他们的记忆力反而很好。
C
Have you ever imagined what life will be like in 2060? An international group of forty scientists have made some surprising predictions. They said that in the next few years, our lives would change a lot.
Firstly, humans can grow body parts themselves. Dr. Ellen is one of the forty scientists. He says, “People will think it common that sick parts of the body can be repaired. It is just like the way we fix a car.” Scientists could use human cells (细胞) to grow new parts. New technologies like this will also help people to live longer. Several years later, most people will be able to live to be one hundred years old.
Secondly, the scientists have predicted that humans will invent a machine to “read” the minds of animals. In 2060, _______. Scientists say that humans may first “talk” with mammals (哺乳动物) and then with other animals. Our daily life will be much easier. There will be more and more smart machines in our houses to help us. What’s more, there will be great robots to help us do all kinds of chores.
But what would be the biggest achievement in the next few years? A number of scientists believe it would be the finding of aliens (外星人). NASA scientist Chris says, “We may find aliens in space and talk with them.” He believes people on Earth may find the marks of aliens.
Does life in 2060 sound cool? Let’s wait and see what will really happen then!
21. How many changes does the passage talk about?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
22. Which of the following can be put into “________”?
A. there will be more mammals on the earth B. we need to keep on protecting animals
C. we will be able to “talk” to animals D. we can find more kinds of animals
23. What would be the biggest finding in the next few years?
A. Useful medicine. B. New land. C. Smart machines. D. Aliens.
24. According to the passage, what will scientists use to grow new parts of our body?
A. wood B. silk C. human cells (细胞) D. paper
25. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. What Achievements Scientists Got B. How to Live Longer
C. What Robots Can Do D. How the Life Will Be in 2060
【答案】21. B 22. C 23. D 24. C 25. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了科学家对2060年人类生活变化的几项预测,包括再生人体器官、与动物交流、发现外星人等内容。
【21题详解】
文章分别用“Firstly”“Secondly”和第三段开头的“But what would be the biggest achievement…”引出了三项变化:再生人体器官、能读懂动物思维、发现外星人,共三项。
【22题详解】
文章指出“Scientists say that humans may first ‘talk’ with mammals and then with other animals.”,此处是在说人类未来可以和动物交流,因此C选项“we will be able to ‘talk’ to animals”符合上下文语境。
【23题详解】
第四段指出“But what would be the biggest achievement in the next few years? A number of scientists believe it would be the finding of aliens.”,未来几年最大的成就是发现外星人。
【24题详解】
第二段指出“Scientists could use human cells to grow new parts.”,科学家会使用人类细胞来培育新的人体器官。
【25题详解】
文章开头就提出了“Have you ever imagined what life will be like in 2060?”,全文围绕科学家对2060年人类生活的预测展开,D选项“How the Life Will Be in 2060”最适合作为标题。
D
①People use sayings (谚语) every day. You may ask an unhappy friend why she’s “feeling blue”. If you’ve done only a small part of a big job, you might call it “a drop in the bucket”.
②These sayings don’t mean exactly what the words say. But it’s easy to tell why we use them. Blue is a cool, quiet color. So it’s a good word for “sad”. A bucket holds too many water drops to count. So just one drop is very little.
③Some sayings are difficult to understand. When you go to bed, you “hit the hay(干草)”. If you want to know the meaning of the saying, you must know where it came from. It was first used in the 1930s. At that time, many Americans were out of work. Some went from place to place, looking for jobs. At night they were very tired. They often made a bed of hay in a field or barn. As soon as their heads “hit the hay”, they fell asleep.
④Here is another saying. When you are not feeling well, you might say you are “under the weather”. But why? This saying is more than 200 years old. It began in the days when many people went from place to place by boat. When the strong winds rocked the boat, people often felt uncomfortable. The boat was sailing(航行) “under the weather”.
⑤Old sayings can be hard for children to understand. But new sayings come along every day. Children often understand new sayings better than older people do. That’s why your grandmother might not know what you mean when you say “chill out” or “give me five”. She might think you’re “off your rocker”.
26. What’s the meaning of the saying “hit the hay” “________”.
A. make a bed of hay B. look for jobs C. go to work D. go to sleep
27. According to the passage, which of the following can be hard for children to understand?
A. Feel blue. B. Give me five. C. Under the weather. D. A drop in the bucket.
28. The underlined saying in Paragraph 5 may mean “________”.
A. 疯了,失去理智 B. 累了,需要休息 C. 困了,想要睡觉 D. 饿了,急需食物
29. From the passage we can know ________.
A. old people know more about sayings B. some sayings have a long history
C. sayings are difficult to understand D. people used sayings a lot in the past
30. How is the passage organized?
A. B. C. D.
【答案】26. D 27. C 28. A 29. B 30. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了英语中一些谚语的含义、来源以及新旧谚语的相关内容。
【26题详解】
第③段指出“When you go to bed, you ‘hit the hay …As soon as their heads ‘hit the hay’, they fell asleep.”,“hit the hay”的意思是去睡觉。
【27题详解】
第⑤段指出“Old sayings can be hard for children to understand.”及第④段“Here is another saying…you might say you are ‘under the weather’. But why? This saying is more than 200 years old.”,“under the weather”是有200多年历史的古老谚语,对孩子来说很难理解;而“Feel blue”“A drop in the bucket”是文中简单解释过的谚语,“Give me five”是孩子比老人更理解的新谚语。
【28题详解】
第⑤段指出“Children often understand new sayings better than older people do. That’s why your grandmother might not know what you mean when you say ‘chill out’ or ‘give me five’. She might think you’re ‘off your rocker’.”,老人不理解年轻人的新谚语,会误以为这些行为很奇怪、不理智,因此划线谚语“off your rocker”的意思是“疯了,失去理智”。
【29题详解】
第④段指出“This saying is more than 200 years old.”,有些谚语有悠久的历史,B选项表述正确。
【30题详解】
文章第①②段先总述人们日常使用谚语,并介绍了一类容易理解的谚语;第③④段分别介绍了来源特殊、历史悠久的谚语;第⑤段介绍了新旧谚语的代际差异,属于“①②总述—③④分述—⑤总结”的结构。
三、任务型阅读(本题有5小题, 每小题1分, 共计5分)
请阅读以下短文,从A、B、C、D、E五个选项中选择相对应的小技巧,并回答第5题。
Listening is an important ability in the communication. Without the ability of effective (有效的) listening, messages are easily misunderstood. If there is one communication ability you should learm, then listening is it. Here are four tips for effective listening.
1
When someone is speaking, it’s time to stop what else you are doing, so you can focus on listening. Put your phone away, turn away from your computer, put aside your thoughts about what you’re going to have for lunch, and just listen to what they’re saying.
2
There are a number of signs to show that you are listening. For example, when people are listening carefully, they will make eye contact with the speaker, nod, and make sounds such as ‘Mm-hm’. This makes the speaker more likely to continue.
3
The words that speakers choose are important. However, a huge amount of communication is non-verbal (非语言的). For example, when we are excited, we will talk faster, and more loudly, and the pitch of our voice goes up. When we are upset about something, our voices drop, and we may avoid eye contact. So you can listen to not only words but also what the speakers really mean.
4
Listening does not mean never talking yourself. An important part of the listening is making sure that you have fully understood the message. Asking questions is one of the easiest ways to show that you are listening as well as whether you have understood the message or not.
A. Show the speaker you are listening.
B. Be prepared to ask for more information.
C. Start by stopping.
D. Listen for both words and meaning—including feelings.
E. Put yourself in the speaker’s shoes.
31. ________
32. ________
33. ________
34. ________
35. Which of the above four tips is the most helpful to you? Why? (回答不少于20词)
___________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】31. C 32. A
33. D 34. B
35. I think starting by stopping is the most helpful because it can show my politeness and tell others I am listening carefully.
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了什么是积极倾听以及积极倾听的建议。
【31题详解】
根据“When someone is speaking, it’s time to stop what else you are doing, so you can focus on listening.”可知,本段介绍先停下手头的事情在开始,C选项“从停止开始。”符合语境。故选C。
【32题详解】
根据“There are a number of signs to show that you are listening.”可知,本段介绍告诉说话的人你在倾听,A选项“告诉说话者你正在听。”符合语境。故选A。
【33题详解】
根据“So you can listen to not only words but also what the speakers really mean.”可知,本段介绍倾听语言和它背后真正的意思,D选项“倾听单词和意思——包括感觉。”符合语境。故选D。
【34题详解】
根据“Asking questions is one of the easiest ways to show that you are listening as well as whether you have understood the message or not.”可知,本段介绍倾听也可以提问,B选项“准备好询问更多信息。”符合语境。故选B。
【35题详解】
开放性习题,答案不唯一,参考答案为:I think starting by stopping is the most helpful because it can show my politeness and tell others I am listening carefully.

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了清洁公司员工接到大卫的请求,为刚做完手术的邻居史密斯先生匿名提供家政服务的故事,传递了善意与温暖的主题。
【36题详解】
句意:通常人们打电话给我们,我们为他们提供房屋清洁服务。
固定搭配provide sb. with sth.或offer sb. sth.都可表示为某人提供某物,但此处空格后直接跟them house cleaning service,符合offer sb. sth.的用法;provide后需加with,不符合用法。
【37题详解】
句意:我可以在不告诉他的情况下付钱吗?
根据后文David wanted to help Mr. Smith without bringing him any stress可知,大卫希望在史密斯不知情的情况下提供帮助,without表示不、没有,符合语境。
【38题详解】
句意:他打电话给我们是因为他担心他的邻居。
cared about关心;worried about担心;cared for照顾;talked about谈论。根据下文Mr. Smith just came back from the hospital.可知,邻居刚刚从医院回来,所以大卫很担心他。
【39题详解】
句意:甚至扫地对他来说都很困难。
前文提到史密斯刚做完手术,家里一团糟,无法做家务,因此扫地对他来说也很难,sweep表示打扫,符合语境。wash洗;repair修理;sell售卖均不符合题意。
【40题详解】
句意:他没有告诉他的孩子们,因为他不想让他们花时间照顾他。
后文用them指代空格处的名词,因此需用复数形式,children符合语境。
【41题详解】
句意:他不想让他们花时间照顾他。
固定搭配spend time (in) doing sth.表示花费时间做某事;take表示花费时,主语通常为it或物;cost的主语为事或者物;pay的主语为人,表示支付。根据主语和固定搭配,spend符合题意。
【42题详解】
句意:然后我们问大卫,如果史密斯先生拒绝让我们进他家怎么办?
前文提到大卫担心给史密斯带来压力,因此公司工作人员询问如果史密斯拒绝让他们进门该怎么办,refused表示拒绝,符合语境。
【43题详解】
句意:幸运的是,史密斯先生让我们进去了,我们的工人做得很好。
前文担心被拒绝,后文是顺利进入并完成服务,这是幸运的结果,Luckily表示幸运地,符合语境。
【44题详解】
句意:因为我们答应过大卫不会说出他的名字,我们没有告诉史密斯先生太多。
前文是原因我们答应过大卫保密,后文是结果没有告诉史密斯太多,since引导原因状语从句,表示因为、既然,符合语境。
【45题详解】
句意:然而,总有一个人会尽他最大努力帮助你。
try one’s best to do sth.是固定搭配,表示尽某人最大努力做某事。
五、词汇运用(本题有15小题, 每小题1分, 共计15分)

【答案】
例文:
In yesterday’s English class, we talked about whether kids should do housework at home. I strongly agree that children should share some housework.
First, doing chores helps us develop independence. We can learn to take care of ourselves, which is important for our future life. Second, it helps us understand the idea of fairness. When we help with chores, we realize that everyone in the family has responsibilities. Third, housework is a good way to relax after long hours of study, and it also helps us stay healthy and learn useful life skills.
In short, I think doing housework is not a waste of time but a great way to grow and become more responsible.

Do you get much exercise sitting in a classroom or an office all day? If your answer is “No”, try to exercise more often. If you do not use your arms for some time, they will become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everyone knows, yet people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When somebody says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault (错误). But if he tells us he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to be blamed (责备) and few of us know it is also his own fault.
Have you ever found some people can’t read or write but they usually remember days, names, songs and stories? Because their memories are being exercised the whole time.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people and practice remembering.
19. When we see a man with strong arms and legs, he may ________.
A. do little exercise B. use them very often C. sit quietly all day D. become weak slowly
20. Paragraph 4 implies (暗示) the fact that ________.
A. adults can hardly practice their memories
B. people have saved much trouble in reading or writing today
C. most of us can remember days, names, songs and stories clearly
D. some people can’t read or write but their memories are quite good
C
Have you ever imagined what life will be like in 2060? An international group of forty scientists have made some surprising predictions. They said that in the next few years, our lives would change a lot.
Firstly, humans can grow body parts themselves. Dr. Ellen is one of the forty scientists. He says, “People will think it common that sick parts of the body can be repaired. It is just like the way we fix a car.” Scientists could use human cells (细胞) to grow new parts. New technologies like this will also help people to live longer. Several years later, most people will be able to live to be one hundred years old.
Secondly, the scientists have predicted that humans will invent a machine to “read” the minds of animals. In 2060, _______. Scientists say that humans may first “talk” with mammals (哺乳动物) and then with other animals. Our daily life will be much easier. There will be more and more smart machines in our houses to help us. What’s more, there will be great robots to help us do all kinds of chores.
But what would be the biggest achievement in the next few years? A number of scientists believe it would be the finding of aliens (外星人). NASA scientist Chris says, “We may find aliens in space and talk with them.” He believes people on Earth may find the marks of aliens.
Does life in 2060 sound cool? Let’s wait and see what will really happen then!
21. How many changes does the passage talk about?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
22. Which of the following can be put into “________”?
A. there will be more mammals on the earth B. we need to keep on protecting animals
C. we will be able to “talk” to animals D. we can find more kinds of animals
23. What would be the biggest finding in the next few years?

24. According to the passage, what will scientists use to grow new parts of our body?
A. wood B. silk C. human cells (细胞) D. paper
25. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. What Achievements Scientists Got B. How to Live Longer

①People use sayings (谚语) every day. You may ask an unhappy friend why she’s “feeling blue”. If you’ve done only a small part of a big job, you might call it “a drop in the bucket”.
②These sayings don’t mean exactly what the words say. But it’s easy to tell why we use them. Blue is a cool, quiet color. So it’s a good word for “sad”. A bucket holds too many water drops to count. So just one drop is very little.
③Some sayings are difficult to understand. When you go to bed, you “hit the hay(干草)”. If you want to know the meaning of the saying, you must know where it came from. It was first used in the 1930s. At that time, many Americans were out of work. Some went from place to place, looking for jobs. At night they were very tired. They often made a bed of hay in a field or barn. As soon as their heads “hit the hay”, they fell asleep.
④Here is another saying. When you are not feeling well, you might say you are “under the weather”. But why? This saying is more than 200 years old. It began in the days when many people went from place to place by boat. When the strong winds rocked the boat, people often felt uncomfortable. The boat was sailing(航行) “under the weather”.
⑤Old sayings can be hard for children to understand. But new sayings come along every day. Children often understand new sayings better than older people do. That’s why your grandmother might not know what you mean when you say “chill out” or “give me five”. She might think you’re “off your rocker”.
26. What’s the meaning of the saying “hit the hay” “________”.
A. make a bed of hay B. look for jobs C. go to work D. go to sleep
27. According to the passage, which of the following can be hard for children to understand?
A. Feel blue. B. Give me five. C. Under the weather. D. A drop in the bucket.
28. The underlined saying in Paragraph 5 may mean “________”.
A. 疯了,失去理智 B. 累了,需要休息 C. 困了,想要睡觉 D. 饿了,急需食物
29. From the passage we can know ________.
A. old people know more about sayings B. some sayings have a long history
C. sayings are difficult to understand D. people used sayings a lot in the past
30. How is the passage organized?
A. B. C. D.
三、任务型阅读(本题有5小题, 每小题1分, 共计5分)
请阅读以下短文,从A、B、C、D、E五个选项中选择相对应的小技巧,并回答第5题。
Listening is an important ability in the communication. Without the ability of effective (有效的) listening, messages are easily misunderstood. If there is one communication ability you should learm, then listening is it. Here are four tips for effective listening.
1
When someone is speaking, it’s time to stop what else you are doing, so you can focus on listening. Put your phone away, turn away from your computer, put aside your thoughts about what you’re going to have for lunch, and just listen to what they’re saying.
2
There are a number of signs to show that you are listening. For example, when people are listening carefully, they will make eye contact with the speaker, nod, and make sounds such as ‘Mm-hm’. This makes the speaker more likely to continue.
3
The words that speakers choose are important. However, a huge amount of communication is non-verbal (非语言的). For example, when we are excited, we will talk faster, and more loudly, and the pitch of our voice goes up. When we are upset about something, our voices drop, and we may avoid eye contact. So you can listen to not only words but also what the speakers really mean.
4
Listening does not mean never talking yourself. An important part of the listening is making sure that you have fully understood the message. Asking questions is one of the easiest ways to show that you are listening as well as whether you have understood the message or not.
A. Show the speaker you are listening.
B. Be prepared to ask for more information.
C. Start by stopping.
D. Listen for both words and meaning—including feelings.
E. Put yourself in the speaker’s shoes.
31. ________
32. ________
33. ________
34. ________
35. Which of the above four tips is the most helpful to you? Why? (回答不少于20词)
