【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:这个小男孩对星星的好奇心使他阅读了许多关于天文学的书籍。

better更好的(比较级);best最好的(最高级);worse更差的(比较级);worst最差的(最高级)。根据后句“I felt bored and fell asleep”可知,电影很无聊,且题干“I have ever watched”表示比较范围,应用形容词最高级,表示“最差的”,应填worst。

A. advise B. advises C. advised D. will advise
【答案】C

【解析】
【详解】句意:如果吉姆这周在学校表现好,他的父母将允许他这周末去郊游。

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述艾玛参加森林旅行,虽迷路但最终找到瀑布,并学到了面对问题要保持冷静的道理。
【31题详解】
句意:当她得知学校将组织一次森林旅行时,她是如此兴奋以至于立刻举起了手。
根据“that she put up her hand immediately”可知,此处考查so...that...固定句型,意为“如此……以至于……”。too和very不与that从句构成此结果状语结构。
【32题详解】
句意:她前一天晚上仔细准备了所有东西,把一张地图、一个手电筒和一些零食放进了背包。
根据下文“She took out the map”可知,她准备物品时放入了地图。pen,clock,cellphone在下文未提及且不符合野外探险语境。
【33题详解】
句意:艾玛的小组想走一条不同的路去找秘密瀑布。
根据后文他们迷路且看不到其他小组可知,他们走的不是常规路线,而是不同的路。different“不同的”符合语境。risky“冒险的”、natural“自然的”和normal“正常的”均不符合语境。
【34题详解】
句意:但很快,他们意识到找不到出去的路了。
结合上下文,他们走了不同的路后,很快发现自己迷路了,realized“意识到”符合语境。advised“建议”、decided“决定”和managed“设法”逻辑不通。
【35题详解】
句意:艾玛告诉自己必须保持冷静。
后文她拿出地图、跟着河水找路,说明她保持了冷静,keep calm是固定搭配,safe“安全的”、quiet“安静的”和healthy“健康的”均不符合。
【36题详解】
句意:顺着河流的声音,他们终于看到了美丽的瀑布。
根据Ben说瀑布在河附近,他们行动后看到瀑布,可知是顺着声音寻找。Following“顺着”符合语境。Making“制造”、Hearing“听到”、Exploring“探索”均不符合语境。
【37题详解】
句意:每个人找到它都感到自豪。
根据历经迷路后成功找到瀑布的情境,大家应是积极情绪。proud“自豪的”符合语境。sorry“抱歉的”、patient“耐心的”和painful“痛苦的”都不符合。
【38题详解】
句意:艾玛的小组走得很慢,享受在森林的最后时刻。
根据“enjoying the last moments”可知,为了享受时光,步伐应是缓慢的。slowly“慢慢地”符合。sadly“悲伤地”、loudly“大声地”和quickly“快速地”均不符合语境。
【39题详解】
句意:Emma想:“这次旅行有点小意外,但结果却如此精彩。”
turn out to be是固定搭配,意为“结果是、证明是”,符合语境。took up“开始做”、got over“克服”和gave in“屈服”均不符合语境。
【40题详解】
句意:她说:“我明白了,当我们遇到问题时,应该保持冷静,想办法解决它。”
后文提到“solve it”,说明这里指的是遇到的“问题”,problem“问题”符合语境。danger“危险”、secret“秘密”和program“节目”均不符合语境。
第二部分 阅读理解 (共三节, 满分30分)
第一节 (共5小题;每小题1.5分, 满7.5分)
根据短文内容,判断下列句子的正误(正确“T”,错误 “F”)。
Everyone sometimes feels sad. What can we do when we’re unhappy? Try listening to some music. One study from the University of Maryland shows that listening to a type of classical music called Baroque helps doctors feel happier. It also helps them get greater satisfaction (满足) with their work.
But not only classical music helps people feel better. In fact, a Penn State University study of college students shows that any kind of music you listen to helps make more positive feelings, such as joy and love.
How can you help yourself with music? Try a music-listening diary, as did the students in the Penn State University. Before you listen to music, write down how you are feeling. Then get your CD player, iPod or mobile phone and turn on your favorite kind of music. The college students most often listened to rock music, but you can choose any kind. Next, do whatever activity you usually do while listening to music. For example, the college students studied and exercised. After listening to the music, write down how long you listened and how you feel now. Keep the diary for a few weeks, and find out if music really does make a difference.
41. Baroque music helps doctors feel happier (University of Maryland).
42. Only classical music can improve people’s mood according to the passage.
43. Penn State’s study focused on college students.
44. A music diary needs feelings written only after listening.
45. Penn State students only listened to rock music.
【答案】41. T 42. F
43. T 44. F
45. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍不同类型音乐都能改善情绪,并讲解了通过音乐聆听日记调节心情的具体方法。
【41题详解】
第一段第三句“One study from the University of Maryland shows that listening to a type of classical music called baroque helps doctors feel happier.”,原文明确指出巴洛克音乐能让医生更开心,与题干表述一致。
【42题详解】
第二段第一句“But not only classical music helps people feel better.”,原文说明不只有古典音乐能改善情绪,题干“只有古典音乐”表述绝对,与原文不符。
【43题详解】
第二段第二句“a Penn State University study of college students shows that…”,宾州州立大学的研究对象是大学生,与题干表述一致。
【44题详解】
第三段第2、4句“Before you listen to music, write down how you are feeling…After listening to the music, write down…”,音乐日记需要听歌前、听歌后都记录感受,并非只在听歌后记录。
【45题详解】
第三段第四句“The college students most often listened to rock music, but you can choose any kind.”, 学生最常听摇滚乐,并非“只听”摇滚乐,题干表述绝对化。

B
Pam lived in a small town. It only took her about ten minutes to walk to the middle school. Every day when the class was over, she would run home to have lunch with Mum. They often talked about what was happening at Pam’s school happily. But one day, Pam came home, looking sad.
“What’s wrong, dear?” Mum asked.
“I cannot play the princess (公主). Mrs. Lin thought I was too nervous and she asked me to play a small role. I’ve practised for two weeks,” Pam cried.
Mum said nothing and after lunch they went to the garden. It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine (藤蔓) was turning green. Under the trees, they could see some yellow dandelions (蒲公英).
“We need to yank these dandelions. From now on, we’ll only have roses in this garden,” Mum said.
“But I like dandelions,” Pam said. “All flowers are beautiful—even dandelions.”
Mum looked at Pam seriously. “Yes, each flower makes us happy in its own way, doesn’t it?” she said. “And that is also true of people. Not everyone can be a princess. But the small role can be important.”
Over the next few days, with Mum’s help, Pam learned to be proud of playing the small role.
51. Where did Pam have lunch?
A. At school. B. In the restaurant.
C. In her grandma’s house. D. At home.

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了Pam因未能扮演公主而伤心,母亲通过花园里的蒲公英和玫瑰告诉她,每种花都有自己的美丽,小角色也同样重要。
【51题详解】
第一段指出:“every day when the class was over, she would run home to have lunch with Mum”,说明Pam在家吃午饭。
【52题详解】
第三段Pam说:“Mrs. Lin thought I was too nervous and she asked me to play a small role.”,说明她因为太紧张而没能扮演公主。
【53题详解】
根据下文“we’ll only have roses in this garden”可知,花园里不能有其他植物,“yank these dandelions”意为“拔掉这些蒲公英”,因此“yank”意为“拔”。
【54题详解】
母亲通过蒲公英和玫瑰的对话告诉Pam,每种花都有自己的美丽,小角色也同样重要。
【55题详解】
全文通过花园里的对话,告诉读者小角色也很重要,因此选D。
C
Forests are home to millions of species, but human activities like illegal logging (非法砍伐) and land clearing are destroying these habitats. If we don’t act soon, many plants and animals will disappear forever. However, people around the world are taking steps to protect forests — and every small effort counts.
In Yunnan Province, China, local villagers once noticed that the number of black crested gibbons (黑冠长臂猿) was dropping. These rare animals depend on tall trees for food and shelter, but too many trees were being cut down. Working with an environmental group called Forest Guardian, the villagers made a rule: no one could cut trees in the gibbons’ living area. They also set up observation points to watch the gibbons and taught tourists about protecting the species. “We used to think cutting trees was the only way to make money,” said villager Mr Li. “Now we know protecting the gibbons means protecting our home too.”
Another group, Green Earth, focuses on saving trees by reducing paper waste. They started a project called “Paper Cycle” in schools and offices. People collect used paper, which is then sent to factories to be recycled into new paper. This way, fewer trees need to be cut down for paper production. Last year, the project helped save more than 5,000 trees across three cities.
These stories show that anyone can help protect forests. Whether it’s following a village rule or recycling paper, small actions add up. We all have a part to play in keeping the natural world alive.
56. What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Tourists visiting the forest. B. Workers from Forest Guardian.
C. Black crested gibbons. D. Local villagers in Yunnan.
57. What is the purpose of the “Paper Cycle” project started by Green Earth?
A. To encourage people to use more paper. B. To reduce paper waste and save trees.
C. To teach students how to make paper. D. To sell recycled paper to factories.
58. How many trees did the “Paper Cycle” project help save last year?
A. More than 3,000. B. More than 4,000.
C. More than 5,000. D. More than 6,000.
59. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
60. Which might be the best title for the passage?
A. Small Steps to Protect Forests B. The Dangers of Illegal Logging
C. Saving Black Crested Gibbons in Yunnan D. How to Recycle Paper for the Environment
【答案】56. D 57. B 58. C 59. B 60. A
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了森林面临的威胁,并通过两个具体案例,讲述了人们为保护森林所采取的行动,强调微小努力的重要性。
【56题详解】

【57题详解】
原文第三段提到“Another group, Green Earth, focuses on saving trees by reducing paper waste. They started a project called ‘Paper Cycle’... This way, fewer trees need to be cut down for paper production”,说明该项目的目的是减少纸张浪费、节约树木。
【58题详解】
原文第三段提到“Last year, the project helped save more than 5,000 trees across three cities”,明确给出了项目去年拯救的树木数量。
【59题详解】
文章结构为:①总述森林面临威胁及保护的重要性;②介绍云南村民保护长臂猿的案例;③介绍“Paper Cycle”回收项目的案例;④总结保护森林人人有责。结构为“总分总”。
【60题详解】
全文围绕“保护森林的微小行动”展开,介绍了两个具体的保护案例,强调“small actions add up”。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了如何通过了解自身优势、兴趣与内心想法,找到适合自己的未来职业,给出了四条实用建议。
【61题详解】
此处位于第一段末尾,起承上启下作用。前文提到激情能指引方向,后文列出了具体的建议条目。选项F“下面的建议帮助你发现未来的工作” 既总结了上文的目的,又引出了下文的tips (建议),且全文围绕 “职业/工作”展开,F 项最契合。
【62题详解】
本段小标题为 “了解你的体能优势”,内容涉及运动、动手实践。空缺处后列举了运动员、建筑工等职业。选项G“信不信由你,体育活动往往能带来好工作” 中的“physical activities”与本段主题呼应,且引出了后文的职业例子,逻辑通顺。
【63题详解】

【64题详解】
本段主题是发挥想象力,涉及绘画、写作等爱好。空缺处前列举了具体活动,后文提到艺术家等职业需要创造力,并鼓励将爱好变成工作。选项 E“全心全意坚持你所热爱的事物” 中的“things you love”对应前文的爱好和后文的“hobby”,起到了鼓励和支持的作用。
【65题详解】
本段主题是 “倾听内心”。空缺处后文提到“家人朋友可能给你建议,然而只有你能做最终决定”。选项B“跟随别人的吩咐做事很容易” 与后文的“However”形成转折对比关系,突出了自己做决定的重要性,逻辑严密。
第三部分 写作(共三节, 满分20分)
第一节 根据句意, 用括号所给词的适当形式填空。(共5小题, 每小题1分, 满分5分)
66. We don’t go to the cinema often, just ________ in a while when there’s a good movie. (one)
【答案】once
【解析】
【详解】句意:我们不常去看电影,只是有好片时偶尔去看一次。根据“We don’t go to the cinema often”可知,看的次数很少。根据状语“when there’s a good movie.”和所给单词one可知,此处表示偶尔一次。once in a while偶尔一次,符合语境。
67. Before leaving the kitchen, make sure the gas is turned off for your ________. (safe)
【答案】safety
【解析】
【详解】句意:离开厨房前,确保煤气已关,为了你的安全。空格前为your,需填名词。safe的名词形式为safety,意为“安全”。

69. We were all surprised at the news of the young scientist’s ________. No one could believe it. (die)
【答案】death
【解析】
【详解】句意:听到那位年轻科学家去世的消息,我们都很惊讶。没人能相信。名词所有格“scientist’s”后需接名词作宾语。“die”的名词形式为“death”,意为“死亡”。
70. Could you speak more ________? It’s noisy here and I can’t hear you well. (clear)
【答案】clearly
【解析】
【详解】句意:你能说得更清楚些吗?这里很吵,我听不清。空前有动词“speak”提示修饰动词要用副词。clear的副词形式是clearly,其比较级more clearly意为“更清楚些”。
第二节 将括号中所给的汉语部分译成英语, 注意使用适当形式。(共5小题, 每小题1分, 满分5分)
71. Though learning English is difficult, she never plans to ________. (放弃)

74. Don’t be angry. After all, Jack didn’t break your glass ________. (有意地)
【答案】on purpose
【解析】
【详解】句意:别生气。毕竟,杰克不是故意打破你的杯子的。根据“didn’t break your glass”及汉语提示,“有意地”为介词短语on purpose,作状语。
75. Before giving a speech, Tom likes to ________ to calm himself down. (深呼吸)
【答案】take a deep breath
【解析】
【详解】句意:在演讲之前,汤姆喜欢深呼吸让自己平静下来。根据所给汉语提示,表示深呼吸的短语是“take a deep breath”,句中like to do sth.表示喜欢做某事,to后面接动词原形,故短语中的动词take使用原形。

第二部分 阅读理解 (共三节, 满分30分)
第一节 (共5小题;每小题1.5分, 满7.5分)
根据短文内容,判断下列句子的正误(正确“T”,错误 “F”)。
Everyone sometimes feels sad. What can we do when we’re unhappy? Try listening to some music. One study from the University of Maryland shows that listening to a type of classical music called Baroque helps doctors feel happier. It also helps them get greater satisfaction (满足) with their work.
But not only classical music helps people feel better. In fact, a Penn State University study of college students shows that any kind of music you listen to helps make more positive feelings, such as joy and love.
How can you help yourself with music? Try a music-listening diary, as did the students in the Penn State University. Before you listen to music, write down how you are feeling. Then get your CD player, iPod or mobile phone and turn on your favorite kind of music. The college students most often listened to rock music, but you can choose any kind. Next, do whatever activity you usually do while listening to music. For example, the college students studied and exercised. After listening to the music, write down how long you listened and how you feel now. Keep the diary for a few weeks, and find out if music really does make a difference.
41. Baroque music helps doctors feel happier (University of Maryland).
42. Only classical music can improve people’s mood according to the passage.
43. Penn State’s study focused on college students.
44. A music diary needs feelings written only after listening.
45. Penn State students only listened to rock music.

Pam lived in a small town. It only took her about ten minutes to walk to the middle school. Every day when the class was over, she would run home to have lunch with Mum. They often talked about what was happening at Pam’s school happily. But one day, Pam came home, looking sad.
“What’s wrong, dear?” Mum asked.
“I cannot play the princess (公主). Mrs. Lin thought I was too nervous and she asked me to play a small role. I’ve practised for two weeks,” Pam cried.
Mum said nothing and after lunch they went to the garden. It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine (藤蔓) was turning green. Under the trees, they could see some yellow dandelions (蒲公英).
“We need to yank these dandelions. From now on, we’ll only have roses in this garden,” Mum said.
“But I like dandelions,” Pam said. “All flowers are beautiful—even dandelions.”
Mum looked at Pam seriously. “Yes, each flower makes us happy in its own way, doesn’t it?” she said. “And that is also true of people. Not everyone can be a princess. But the small role can be important.”
Over the next few days, with Mum’s help, Pam learned to be proud of playing the small role.
51. Where did Pam have lunch?
A. At school. B. In the restaurant.
C. In her grandma’s house. D. At home.
52. Why didn’t Mrs. Lin ask Pam to play the princess?
A. Because Pam didn’t practise hard. B. Because Pam was not beautiful.
C. Because Pam was too nervous. D. Because she didn’t like Pam.
53. What does the underlined word “yank” mean?
A. Pull. B. Water. C. Protect. D. Throw.
54. What did Pam’s mum take her to the garden in order to tell her?
A. Dandelions aren’t as beautiful as roses. B. Everyone plays an important role.

Forests are home to millions of species, but human activities like illegal logging (非法砍伐) and land clearing are destroying these habitats. If we don’t act soon, many plants and animals will disappear forever. However, people around the world are taking steps to protect forests — and every small effort counts.
In Yunnan Province, China, local villagers once noticed that the number of black crested gibbons (黑冠长臂猿) was dropping. These rare animals depend on tall trees for food and shelter, but too many trees were being cut down. Working with an environmental group called Forest Guardian, the villagers made a rule: no one could cut trees in the gibbons’ living area. They also set up observation points to watch the gibbons and taught tourists about protecting the species. “We used to think cutting trees was the only way to make money,” said villager Mr Li. “Now we know protecting the gibbons means protecting our home too.”
Another group, Green Earth, focuses on saving trees by reducing paper waste. They started a project called “Paper Cycle” in schools and offices. People collect used paper, which is then sent to factories to be recycled into new paper. This way, fewer trees need to be cut down for paper production. Last year, the project helped save more than 5,000 trees across three cities.
These stories show that anyone can help protect forests. Whether it’s following a village rule or recycling paper, small actions add up. We all have a part to play in keeping the natural world alive.

A. Tourists visiting the forest. B. Workers from Forest Guardian.

58. How many trees did the “Paper Cycle” project help save last year?
A. More than 3,000. B. More than 4,000.
C. More than 5,000. D. More than 6,000.
