But is it worth it? The Harris Academy in Upper Norwood (London) is one school that’s taking action. Students there aren’t allowed to use words such as coz (because), ain’t (isn’t/aren’t, etc.) and yeah (yes) when they’re speaking. A letter has been sent to parents explaining the decision, according to an article in the Daily Mail. But why? “The big problem is that many of these words are appearing in written work,” explained Mr. Hank, an English teacher. “This puts many children at a disadvantage. We do want them to be able to communicate properly with people and be understood. We are going to teach them the rules. If they decide not to use these rules with friends, that is fine. But I want them to know that when writing and speaking in a formal (正式的) situation, they should use Standard English.” So, what’s causing the problem? Firstly, slang is just about everywhere these days: in TV soaps, reality shows, songs and films. Secondly, with more and more people using it in conversations with friends and workmates, it’s becoming more acceptable. Also, the increase in the use of mobile phones and social networking sites is having an influence—while texting, people often use abbreviations or phonetic forms of words, such as wot (what), dat (that), dis (this), n (and), w (with), gonna (going to) and wanna (want to). However, many people think that the effort to control languages doesn’t make sense. “The very nature of English is its flexibility (灵活性),” said a Jamaican poet in a recent interview. “You can’t control the type of language that people use,” he added. “The reason why English is such a popular language is because it develops well to fit the way it is being used,” a language expert explained. Is the “war” on slang worth fighting? 47. How does the writer show that slang is not allowed in some schools? A. By telling a story. B. By using a saying. C. By giving an example. D. By describing a picture. 48. How many reasons for people to use slang are mentioned? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 49. What can we infer from the Jamaican poet’s words in Paragraph 5? A. Any language has its own rules. B. English is the most popular language. C. It’s acceptable for people to use slang. D. The effort to control slang is really meaningful. 50. Which is the best title for this passage? A. Slang matters, doesn’t it? B. Is slang learning necessary at school? C. How to teach slang at school? D. Slang or not slang at school? 【答案】47. C 48. B 49. C 50. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要围绕“学校是否应禁止学生使用俚语”展开讨论。 【47题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The Harris Academy in Upper Norwood...according to an article in the Daily Mail.”可知，作者通过具体案例（伦敦某校禁止俚语并通知家长）说明这一现象。故选C。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Firstly, ...Secondly, ...Also, ...”可知，提到了人们使用俚语的三个原因。故选B。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据诗人观点“The very nature of English is its flexibility”和“You can’t control the type of language that people use”可知，他认为俚语的使用是语言灵活性的体现，无法控制人们使用的语言类型。故选C。 【50题详解】 最佳标题题。根据文章开头“Several schools are trying to stop from students using slang. But is it worth it?”和最后“Is the ‘war’ on slang worth fighting?”以及全文可知，本文主要讨论了学校是否应禁止学生使用俚语这一话题。故选D。 (二) 从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，其中有一项是多余选项。 There are some skills for students to listen to the teacher in class, which means you’re going to have to practice it.

You asked me to search for talented people of my kind, so it’s as easy as getting water from a big river.” Since then, “Wu Yi Lei Ju” has found its way into Chinese as a popular idiom (成语). 【答案】56. same 57. means 58. was good at 59. around 60. difficult 61. wondered 62. lucky 63. easily 64. plenty of 65. fly 【解析】 【导语】本文主要以英文谚语“物以类聚，人以群分”引入，讲述了中文成语“物以类聚”的来源故事：战国时齐国学者淳于髡为齐宣王举荐贤才，一天就举荐了七位，他解释说同类人/事物自然会聚在一起，所以寻贤才很容易，由此衍生出“物以类聚”这个成语。 【56题详解】 句意：它通常用来描述志趣相似的人，更容易聚成同一个圈子。结合前文“相似的想法”和谚语内涵，此处“the…group”指“相同的群体”，应填same。 【57题详解】 句意：在汉语中，这句话的意思是“物以类聚”，或者说“同类事物总会相聚在一起”的意思。“it…”表示“它的意思是”，主语“it”为第三人称单数，客观描述用一般现在时，mean应用第三人称单数形式means。 【58题详解】 句意：战国时期，齐国有一位著名学者名叫淳于髡，他擅长游说辩论。“…debating”指“（淳于髡）擅长辩论”，故事发生在过去，主语为单数，be good at变形为was good at。 【59题详解】 句意：齐宣王喜爱招揽有才的学者聚拢在自己身边。“King Xuan of the Qi State loved to get many talented scholars…”指“齐宣王喜爱招揽贤才在自己身边”，应填around表示“在周围”。 【60题详解】 句意：淳于髡说这件事一点都不难。“would not be…at all.”表示“（淳于髡）认为（招揽人才）一点都不难”，be动词后接形容词，名词difficulty转换为difficult“困难的”。 【61题详解】 句意：齐宣王十分高兴，但他实在好奇，淳于髡怎么能在这么短的时间找到这么多贤才。“he really…”表示“他实在好奇”，即国王对淳于髡短时间找到众多人才感到好奇，动作发生在过去，wonder应用过去式wondered。 【62题详解】 句意：千里方圆能出一位优秀贤才、百年能出一位圣贤都算是幸运的事。“Someone would be…to find one excellent scholar”表达“能找到一个贤才都算是幸运的”，be动词后接形容词，名词luck转换为lucky“幸运的”。 【63题详解】 句意：你怎么能这么轻易就为我找到七位大贤呢？“so…”表示“如此容易地”；此处修饰动词“find”，要用副词，形容词easy转换为easily。 【64题详解】 句意：淳于髡回答说：“大王，低洼湿地里长不出旱地作物，要找旱地作物得花上百万年，但在高地上就能找到很多同类旱地作物。“while you can find…them on a highland”表示“高地上有很多这类人才”，应填plenty of表示“许多，大量”。 【65题详解】 句意：同种类的动物通常结伴活动，同种类的鸟儿常常一同飞翔。“birds of the same type often…together”指“同类的鸟一起飞翔”，陈述客观道理，主语是复数“birds”，应填fly。 (二) 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，使其意思完整。 Long long ago, there was a farmer who worked very hard. He was always w____66____ about different things. One day, the farmer and his son p____67____ rice together. They were happy when all the seeds (种子) were planted. Several days l____68____, the seeds grew into the rice. Then he went to watch the r____69____ grow every day. Many days passed, but the rice still seemed the same. He began to get worried. The farmer asked his neighbour for help, “I am worried about my rice. It seems to s____70____ growing!” His neighbour replied, “Nature will provide. Be p____71____.” The farmer got worried again. “What if my rice never grows?” He thought and thought, “I must find a w____72____ to help my rice grow faster. I think the rice really needs my help. I must do s____73____!” The next morning, the farmer ran to the rice f____74____, and pulled the rice up a few inches (英寸) one by one. The next day, the farmer went to the field and found that all the rice was d____75____. All the hard work had gone to waste, and there was no rice left to be saved. 【答案】66. (w)orried 67. (p)lanted 68. (l)ater 69. (r)ice 70. (s)top 71. (p)atient 72. (w)ay 73. (s)omething 74. (f)ield 75. (d)ead 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇寓言故事，主要讲述了一个农民因为过于焦虑而拔苗助长的故事。 【66题详解】 句意：他总是为不同的事情担心。根据“He was always...about different things”并结合首字母w可知，他为不同的事情担心，be worried about“担心”。故填(w)orried。 【67题详解】 句意：一天，农民和儿子一起种水稻。根据“They were happy when all the seeds (种子) were planted”可知是种水稻，这里填谓语动词，用一般过去时，结合首字母p，plant“种植”符合语境，故填(p)lanted。 【68题详解】 句意：几天后，种子长成了水稻。根据“Several days... , the seeds grew into the rice”可知，应是几天后，种子长成了水稻，此处表示时间推移，later“在……之后”符合语境。故填(l)ater。 【69题详解】 句意：然后他每天都去看水稻生长。根据“Then he went to watch the...grow”和前文“the seeds grew into the rice”可知，此处指观察水稻生长，rice“水稻”符合语境。故填(r)ice。 【70题详解】 句意：它好像停止生长了！根据“but the rice still seemed the same”可知，水稻似乎仍然没变，故农民觉得它是停止生长了，stop“停止”符合语境，seem to do“好像，似乎”。故填(s)top。 【71题详解】 句意：耐心点。根据“Nature will provide”可知，邻居应是劝农民耐心一点，patient“耐心的”符合语境，此处为形容词作表语。故填(p)atient。 【72题详解】 句意：我必须找到一个让水稻长得更快的方法。根据“find a...to help my rice grow faster”可知，农民应是想找到一个让水稻长得更快的方法，way“方法”符合语境，根据“a”可知，此处应用名词单数。故填(w)ay。 【73题详解】 句意：我必须做些事情！根据“I think the rice really needs my help”和备选词可知，农民认为自己需要做些事，something“某事”符合语境。故填(s)omething。 【74题详解】 句意：第二天早上，农夫跑到稻田里，把水稻一棵一棵往上拔了几英寸。根据“ran to the rice...”可知，应是跑到稻田里，field“田野”符合语境。故填(f)ield。 【75题详解】 句意：第二天，农夫去田里发现所有水稻都死了。根据“All the hard work had gone to waste, and there was no rice left to be saved.”和备选词可知，拔苗助长导致水稻死亡，dead“死亡的”符合语境，此处为形容词作表语。故填(d)ead。 七、读写综合 (一) 阅读并回答问题。 Deep down in the sea, Ivan sat on the floor covered with sand. He was bored and unhappy. He watched other pretty fish swimming in and out of rocks. They were laughing and dancing in the sea. “Why am I so different?” he said to himself. “You are an octopus (章鱼), Ivan. That’s special.” The sweet voice of Peter, a beautiful white dolphin, always made Ivan feel better. Ivan looked up at the white dolphin and smiled. Peter said, “Let’s play games together.” They were having a lot of fun and they didn’t know they swam far from home. Suddenly, Peter saw a large shark swimming above them. “It is Big White ... the biggest, most terrible shark in the sea,” he shouted to Ivan. Peter looked at Big White hopelessly. Peter was so afraid that he couldn’t swim. Just at this moment, Big White rushed down towards them. An idea came to Ivan. He quickly sprayed (喷) a cloud of black ink over the shark’s eyes. Then Ivan and Peter swam away and got home safely. “Are you OK?” asked Ivan. “Yes. I am lucky to have you as my friend!” replied Peter. Ivan’s face turned red. “I guess being different from others can be so cool sometimes,” Ivan said. “That is what I try to tell you,” Peter said. 76. Where did Ivan sit at the beginning of the story? ______________________________________________ 77. What was Ivan’s feeling at first? ______________________________________________ 78. What did Peter suggest? ______________________________________________ 79. How did Ivan manage to save them? ______________________________________________ 80. What did Peter think of Ivan? ______________________________________________ 【答案】76. On the sandy sea floor. 77. Bored and unhappy. 78. Playing games together. 79. By spraying black ink./He sprayed ink at the shark. 80. A special true friend. (答案不唯一) 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了章鱼伊万因自己与其他鱼儿不同而感到无聊和难过，在海豚彼得的鼓励下一起玩耍。当遭遇大鲨鱼袭击时，伊万利用自身喷墨的特长成功救下两人，最终意识到与众不同也可以很酷。 【76题详解】 文章第一句明确写道：“Deep down in the sea, Ivan sat on the floor covered with sand.”因此伊万坐在被沙子覆盖的海底，即“on the sandy sea floor”。 【77题详解】 第二句直接说明：“He was bored and unhappy.” 所以起初他的感受是“无聊且不开心”，即Bored and unhappy. 【78题详解】 彼得说的话中有一句：“Let’s play games together.” 这是彼得提出的建议，即Playing games together.“一起玩游戏”。 【79题详解】 当大白鲨冲下来时，伊万急中生智：“He quickly sprayed a cloud of black ink over the shark’s eyes.” 通过喷墨遮挡鲨鱼视线，他们得以逃脱。因此救他们的方法是“喷出黑色墨水”，即By spraying black ink./He sprayed ink at the shark. 【80题详解】 彼得在事后说：“I am lucky to have you as my friend!” 并之前称伊万是“special”。可见彼得认为伊万是“特别而忠实的朋友”，即A special true friend.（答案合理即可）。 (二)书面表达。 (共1题，计15分) 81. 假如你是Joan，就读于阳光中学，Sandy是你的笔友，下面是她给你的来信，请你根据她的来信，用英语给她写一封回信。 Dear Joan, The other day, I saw some pictures of your school in different seasons online.

All you need is your Acme Rocket Launcher and a few simple household tools: a 500 ml plastic cola bottle, scissors, colored paper, a board and glue. What to do: Step 1: Clean the cola bottle from outside to inside and make it dry. Step 2: Use colored paper to draw four small triangles (三角形) on the board. Cut out the triangles. Step 3: Roll (卷起) the large triangle so that two of its sides touch and it forms a rocket’s nose cone (圆锥). Glue the sides of the cone so that it holds its shape. Step 4: Glue the only nose cone (圆锥) to the bottom (底部) of the bottle to be the top (顶部) of the rocket. Step 5: Glue the smaller triangles to the other end of the cola bottle, around its opening. The triangles will be the tail fins. Follow the instructions with your Acme Rocket Launcher and have a blast (爆炸). 44. How many triangles will be cut out for making this Acme Rocket Launcher? A. One.

Sports News. C Several schools are trying to stop students from using slang (俚语). But is it worth it? The Harris Academy in Upper Norwood (London) is one school that’s taking action. Students there aren’t allowed to use words such as coz (because), ain’t (isn’t/aren’t, etc.) and yeah (yes) when they’re speaking. A letter has been sent to parents explaining the decision, according to an article in the Daily Mail. But why? “The big problem is that many of these words are appearing in written work,” explained Mr. Hank, an English teacher. “This puts many children at a disadvantage. We do want them to be able to communicate properly with people and be understood. We are going to teach them the rules. If they decide not to use these rules with friends, that is fine. But I want them to know that when writing and speaking in a formal (正式的) situation, they should use Standard English.” So, what’s causing the problem? Firstly, slang is just about everywhere these days: in TV soaps, reality shows, songs and films. Secondly, with more and more people using it in conversations with friends and workmates, it’s becoming more acceptable. Also, the increase in the use of mobile phones and social networking sites is having an influence—while texting, people often use abbreviations or phonetic forms of words, such as wot (what), dat (that), dis (this), n (and), w (with), gonna (going to) and wanna (want to). However, many people think that the effort to control languages doesn’t make sense. “The very nature of English is its flexibility (灵活性),” said a Jamaican poet in a recent interview. “You can’t control the type of language that people use,” he added. “The reason why English is such a popular language is because it develops well to fit the way it is being used,” a language expert explained. Is the “war” on slang worth fighting? 47. How does the writer show that slang is not allowed in some schools? A. By telling a story. B. By using a saying. C. By giving an example. D. By describing a picture. 48. How many reasons for people to use slang are mentioned? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 49. What can we infer from the Jamaican poet’s words in Paragraph 5? A. Any language has its own rules. B. English is the most popular language. C. It’s acceptable for people to use slang. D. The effort to control slang is really meaningful. 50. Which is the best title for this passage? A. Slang matters, doesn’t it? B. Is slang learning necessary at school? C. How to teach slang at school? D. Slang or not slang at school?
