The water in the lake was dirty, the seats were broken and the place was full of rubbish. But now the park looks quite different, thanks to Michael Chambers, a 16-year-old student.

But this year, Lily did not want to go to school. One morning, she asked her mom, “Mom, can I be home-schooled?” Her mom was surprised. “Why? I thought you loved school.” Lily replied, “I did, but Emma, a girl in my class, keeps making fun of my eyes. She even got a couple of my friends to tease (嘲笑) me.” Lily’s eyes were crossed. Her mom said gently, “Dear, that’s really bad, but you know I can’t stay at home all day. I have work to do.” Seeing the disappointment on Lily’s face, she continued, “If they don’t stop, tell your teacher or let me call your teacher.” At school, Emma and the other girls continued to tease her. Lily didn’t want to be a tattletale (告密者), so she tried hard to pay no attention to their mean words, but it seemed very difficult. One evening, feeling upset, Lily shared her story on the school website. A week later, as Lily left school, she saw two girls holding bright signs with her name on them. These two girls are also cross-eyed. Lily’s heart raced as the two girls smiled and said, “We read your story and want you to join our group, the Cross-eyed Crew!” Lily could hardly believe her ears. She was happy to know she was not alone. After that day, Lily joined the group. She spent time talking with her new friends and they joined school clubs together. Very soon, Lily even started some community activities with her group members. Slowly, her classmates began to join in the activities she organized and realized how kind and smart she was. And they felt happy to be friends with her. Another morning, Lily told her mom that she didn’t feel sorry about her eyes any more.

Death Valley is the hottest and the driest place in North America. Death Valley isn’t an easy place to live in. It gets less than two feet of rain a year and it’s hot, too. In July, temperature often reaches over 46℃. There is even a lake that has turned into salt crystals (晶体). But it is cold at night. When it gets cold enough, the water on the ground will turn into very thin ice. Then the strong wind — like a large hand — can move the rocks along the icy ground. That is why the rocks can “walk” on their own in Death Valley. Although the weather condition in Death Valley is terrible, there is still filled with lives. Nothing can stop plants and animals from making it their home. People have found more than 1,000 kinds of plants there. It also has 51 kinds of mammals (哺乳动物), 6 kinds of fish, and more than 300 kinds of birds. The animals aren’t all small, either. Finding water is the biggest challenge for anything that lives here. Some plants have roots (根部) that go fifty feet under the ground to find water. Kangaroo rats get the water they need from flowers. Death Valley really creates a lot of surprising! 68. Death Valley gets ________ of rain a year. A. two feet B. fifty-one feet C. at least two feet D. less than two feet 69. The most difficult thing in Death Valley is to find ________. A. water B. food C. animals D. plants 70. The underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refers to (指代) “________”. A. a lake B. Death Valley C. the strong wind D. the weather condition 71. From the passage, we can infer (推断) that ________. A. the writer dislikes Death Valley B. some animals are large in Death Valley C. the plants do not have long roots D. Rocks sometimes move in the afternoon 72. What is the best title of this passage? A. The hard life in Death Valley B. A dangerous place — Death Valley C. The facts about Death Valley D. Moving rocks in Death Valley E The camel (骆驼) is one of the most interesting animals in the world. Camels are big. ____73____ They can run up to 40 miles per hour. The camel is called the ship of the desert because it can live in the desert without food and water for six or ten days and carry people and things in the desert. A camel’s body is right for desert life. ____74____ To fight with blowing sand, a camel’s ears have fur (毛皮). Its eyelashes (睫毛) may look long, but they really protect their eyes. People all over North Africa and West Asia need camels. ____75____ A camel can carry a person or hundreds of pounds of things across many miles. On a desert trip, a camel can live on very little food and water. Its special body part keeps fat so it can go without eating for days. A camel can lose as much as a fourth of its body weight without getting sick. Also, its body temperature can go up by more than 10°F before it has sweat (汗). In this way, the camel doesn’t lose as much water from sweat as a horse or a person would. ____76____ When the weather is cool, camels can go for as long as several months without water. During the summer, when temperatures are higher, they can live without water for up to ten days. To become fresh from a long desert trip, a camel drinks as much as 21 gallons (加仑) of water in ten minutes. ____77____ But too much water or too little doesn’t hurt a camel.

Some young people ________ the old to make a lot of money these days. We hate them very much. A. introduce B. excite C. cheat D. offer 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：如今一些年轻人欺骗老人来赚很多钱。我们非常讨厌他们。 introduce介绍；excite使兴奋；cheat欺骗；offer提供。根据“We hate them very much.”可知，这种行为是负面的，令人憎恶的，结合“make a lot of money”推测是欺骗老人钱财，应填cheat。 22. —What would you like to drink, coffee or juice? —________. Give me some zero-­sugar cola, please. A. Either B. Both C. Neither D. None 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你想喝什么，咖啡还是果汁？——都不喝。请给我零糖可乐。 考查不定代词辨析。Either两者中的任何一个；Both两者都；Neither两者都不；None没有。根据答句“Give me some zero-sugar cola, please.”可知，说话者既不选择咖啡也不选择果汁，即两个都没选。故选C。 23. Could you ________ what you said just now again? I can’t understand it at all. A. provide B. explain C. cover D. compare 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：你能再解释一遍你刚才说的话吗？我一点也不明白。 考查动词词义辨析。provide提供；explain解释；cover覆盖；compare比较。根据“I can’t understand it at all.”可知，此处是指让对方再解释一遍。故选B。 24. —Mary, I called you at 6:30 p.m. yesterday. Why didn’t you ________ at that time? —Oh, I was taking a shower then. A. give up B. look up C. pick up D. cheer up 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——玛丽，我昨天下午六点半给你打过电话。你当时为什么不接电话？ ——哦，我当时正在洗澡。 考查动词短语辨析。give up放弃；look up查找，向上看；pick up拾起，接(电话)；cheer up振作起来。结合“I called you at 6:30 p.m.”及语境可知，此处在询问对方为何没有在那个时候“接电话”。故选C。 25. The rich man has five ________ dollars, but he has decided to give it away to the poor people. A. million B. millions C. millions of D. million of 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：这个富人有五百万美元。但是决定把它捐给穷人。 考查million的用法。根据“five...dollars”可知，空前是具体基数词five，此时million无需加s，也无需后接介词of，所以空处应用million的单数形式。故选A。 26. ________ you promise to bring my MP3 player back by Saturday, I won’t lend it to you. A. Unless B. If C. But D. When 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：除非你承诺周六前把我的MP3播放器带回来，否则我不会把它借给你。 Unless除非；If如果；But但是；When当……时候。根据主句“I won’t lend it to you”可知，借出的前提是对方承诺归还。Unless引导条件状语从句，意为“除非”，符合“不承诺就不借”的逻辑关系。 27. I was folding my clothes while my mother ________ in the kitchen. A. cooked B. cooks C. cooking D. was cooking 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：当我正在叠衣服的时候，我的妈妈正在厨房做饭。 根据“I was folding my clothes”可知，主句时态为过去进行时，while引导的时间状语从句表示两个动作同时进行，从句也应该用过去进行时。应填was cooking。 28. —Mom, could I watch TV after finishing my homework? —________. You’d better go out for a walk. A. Never mind B. Sorry, you can’t C. Of course you can D. Not at all 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——妈妈，我做完作业后可以看电视吗？ ——对不起，你不能。你最好出去走走。 考查情景交际。Never mind不要紧；Sorry, you can’t对不起，你不能；Of course you can你当然可以；Not at all一点也不。根据问句“could I watch TV after finishing my homework”及回答“You’d better go out for a walk”可知，妈妈应是不允许看电视。故选B。 三、完形填空 (本大题共26小题，每小题1分，共26分) A) 请先阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可填入相应空白处的最佳选项。 One day, 60 people were listening to a speech（演讲）.

The water in the lake was dirty, the seats were broken and the place was full of rubbish. But now the park looks quite different, thanks to Michael Chambers, a 16-year-old student. Michael started a group called Park Rescue (营救). Volunteers of the group used their free time to clean the park. They took away the rubbish and started cleaning the lake. They fixed a lot of the seats and bought some new tables. They also planted some flowers and 60 young trees. Michael told people what they were doing in the park through the newspaper. In six months, about 120 more people joined Park Rescue. The group also planned concerts and raised money in the street. With these activities and the help of some warm-hearted people, they have raised over £4,000. “Birds start to come back to the park. The long-closed restaurant is going to open soon. The park is becoming a place where people can enjoy themselves,” Michael says. “But we still have more work to do. We want to make a skate-boarding area (滑板区). And now we need some advice about cleaning the lake.” If you want to work with Park Rescue, call Michael at 344-9280 or e-mail him at parkrescue@biglink.co.uk. 58. How did Michael tell more people about Park Rescue? A. Through the Internet. B. Through the radio. C. Through the concert. D. Through the newspaper. 59. Which of the following does Michael want to do next? A. To raise another £4,000. B. To open a new restaurant. C. To make a skate-boarding area. D. To start a group. 60. What should Emma do if she wants to join Park Rescue? A. Meet Michael in the park. B. Call Michael at 343-9280. C. E-mail Michael at parkrescue@biglink.co.uk. D. Raise money in the street. 61. What can we know about Michael according to the passage? A. He dislikes skate-boarding. B. He cares for the environment. C. He started the group two months ago. D. He raised over £4,000. 62. Which of the following is true? A. Michael planted some flowers and 60 younger trees. B. There were 120 people in Park Rescue. C. Now the park is a good place where people can have fun. D.

Lily had always liked her school. But this year, Lily did not want to go to school. One morning, she asked her mom, “Mom, can I be home-schooled?” Her mom was surprised. “Why? I thought you loved school.” Lily replied, “I did, but Emma, a girl in my class, keeps making fun of my eyes. She even got a couple of my friends to tease (嘲笑) me.” Lily’s eyes were crossed. Her mom said gently, “Dear, that’s really bad, but you know I can’t stay at home all day. I have work to do.” Seeing the disappointment on Lily’s face, she continued, “If they don’t stop, tell your teacher or let me call your teacher.” At school, Emma and the other girls continued to tease her. Lily didn’t want to be a tattletale (告密者), so she tried hard to pay no attention to their mean words, but it seemed very difficult. One evening, feeling upset, Lily shared her story on the school website. A week later, as Lily left school, she saw two girls holding bright signs with her name on them. These two girls are also cross-eyed. Lily’s heart raced as the two girls smiled and said, “We read your story and want you to join our group, the Cross-eyed Crew!” Lily could hardly believe her ears. She was happy to know she was not alone. After that day, Lily joined the group. She spent time talking with her new friends and they joined school clubs together. Very soon, Lily even started some community activities with her group members. Slowly, her classmates began to join in the activities she organized and realized how kind and smart she was. And they felt happy to be friends with her. Another morning, Lily told her mom that she didn’t feel sorry about her eyes any more.

Death Valley is the hottest and the driest place in North America. Death Valley isn’t an easy place to live in. It gets less than two feet of rain a year and it’s hot, too. In July, temperature often reaches over 46℃. There is even a lake that has turned into salt crystals (晶体). But it is cold at night. When it gets cold enough, the water on the ground will turn into very thin ice. Then the strong wind — like a large hand — can move the rocks along the icy ground. That is why the rocks can “walk” on their own in Death Valley. Although the weather condition in Death Valley is terrible, there is still filled with lives. Nothing can stop plants and animals from making it their home. People have found more than 1,000 kinds of plants there. It also has 51 kinds of mammals (哺乳动物), 6 kinds of fish, and more than 300 kinds of birds. The animals aren’t all small, either. Finding water is the biggest challenge for anything that lives here. Some plants have roots (根部) that go fifty feet under the ground to find water. Kangaroo rats get the water they need from flowers. Death Valley really creates a lot of surprising! 68.

From the passage, we can infer (推断) that ________. A. the writer dislikes Death Valley B. some animals are large in Death Valley C. the plants do not have long roots D. Rocks sometimes move in the afternoon 72. What is the best title of this passage? A. The hard life in Death Valley B. A dangerous place — Death Valley C. The facts about Death Valley D. Moving rocks in Death Valley 【答案】68. D 69. A 70. B 71. B 72.
