A man often bought oranges from an old woman. After paying, he would pick one, try a piece of it and say it tasted bad before giving it back to her. The old woman would eat the orange, smile and say, “It’s delicious.” But by then, the man was already gone (离开的). One day, the man’s wife (妻子) asked him, “The oranges are always sweet, so why do you do that?” “The old woman sells sweet oranges, but she never eats them herself. I do this so she’ll try one without losing money,” the man answered. A boy saw this happen every day. He asked the old woman, “Why do you keep giving him extra oranges even though he’s unfriendly to you?” The old woman smiled and said, “I know what he’s trying to do. He wants me to eat an orange. So, it’s not really like I’m giving him more oranges—his kindness makes up the difference.” Caring about others also brings more love to yourself. Let’s be kind to others and find happiness in little acts of love.

【导语】本文讲述了一位男士用特殊方式关爱卖橙子的老妇人的故事,传递了关爱他人就是关爱自己的温暖主题。
【41题详解】
文中第一句提到“A man often bought oranges from an old woman.”,说明男士是从一位老妇人那里买橙子的。
【42题详解】
男士买橙子时会找借口让老妇人免费吃橙子,老妇人也说“his kindness makes up the difference”,这些细节都体现了他的善良。
【43题详解】
故事的正确顺序是:c.A man often bought oranges from the old woman.(男士常从老妇人那买橙子)e.The man gave back the orange to the old woman to check if the orange tasted bad.(男士借口橙子不好吃把橙子还给老妇人)a.The old woman would eat the orange and say it was delicious.(老妇人吃橙子并说它很美味)d.A boy asked the old woman for the reason.(男孩向老妇人询问原因)b.The old woman said the man only wanted her to eat an orange.(老妇人解释男士只是想让她吃橙子)对应选项D。
【44题详解】
文中男孩问“Why do you keep giving him extra oranges even though he’s unfriendly to you?”,结合上下文,老妇人知道男士的善意,所以会多给他橙子,因此“extra”意为“更多的”。
【45题详解】
文章结尾提到“Caring about others also brings more love to yourself.”,点明了全文主旨:关爱他人就是关爱自己。
根据材料内容,从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项。

【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了如今电视上才艺表演节目增多的现象,分析了这类节目带来的乐趣,同时也指出其对青少年存在的不良影响。
【51题详解】
句意:如今,电视上的才艺表演节目比以前“更多”了。空格后有“than before”,说明要用比较级,“many”的比较级是“more”,此处表示节目数量比以前多。
【52题详解】
句意:每个人都认为这些节目在我们的日常生活中带来了很大的乐趣,我们通过观看不同种类的节目变得“放松”。“get”是系动词,后面接形容词,“relaxed”是形容词,意为“放松的”,用来描述人的感受。
【53题详解】
句意:他们通过“唱歌”、跳舞、变魔术等方式展示他们的才艺。“by”是介词,后面接动名词形式,“sing”的动名词是“singing”,与后面的“dancing, doing magic”结构一致。
【54题详解】
句意:通过这种方式,这样的节目给任何想在电视上向所有人展示“他的”真正才艺的人提供了一个自由的方式。此处需要一个形容词性物主代词来修饰“true talent”,“his”是形容词性物主代词,意为“他的”。
【55题详解】
句意:并让更多人为实现他们的梦想而“努力”工作。“make sb. do sth.”是固定结构,“work hard”是“努力工作/奋斗”的意思,所以此处用动词原形“work”。
【56题详解】
句意:并且“获胜者”总是能获得很好的奖品。根据后面的“get good prizes”可知,主语应该是“获胜者”,且用复数形式“winners”,因为通常节目获胜者不止一个。
【57题详解】
句意:“当”我们在电视上观看这些节目时,我们通常在决定获胜者方面发挥作用。此处需要一个连词来引导时间状语从句,“When”意为“当……时候”,符合语境。
【58题详解】
句意:尽管这些节目“真的”给我们带来了很多乐趣。此处需要一个副词来修饰动词“bring”,“real”的副词形式是“really”,意为“真正地、确实”。
【59题详解】
句意:它们也引起了很多不好的“事情”,尤其是对青少年来说。“many”后面接可数名词复数,“thing”的复数形式是“things”,表示“事情、事物”。
【60题详解】
句意:“例如”,很多学生花了太多的时间和金钱在享受它们上面。“for example”是固定短语,意为“例如”,用来举例说明前面的观点。所以选择“For”(句首大写)。
第二节
阅读短文,根据语篇要求填空,使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词。

They think teachers can bring knowledge to children. Besides, ____64____ are ten students who want to be a boss to make more money.
As for me, I want to be a policeman. Although I am not strong enough, I am going ____65____ take more exercise. I know it takes a lot of hard work but I really want to help the people in trouble.
【答案】61. are
62. be 63. a
64. there 65. to
【解析】
【导语】本文主要围绕昨天英语老师让同学们谈论未来梦想工作展开。
【61题详解】
句意:这是结果。“Here be...”是倒装句结构,用来引出事物或信息,意为“这是……;以下是……”,be动词的单复数取决于后面的名词,句子的主语是“the results”是复数,时态为一般现在时,所以be动词用are。
【62题详解】
句意:在我们班,19名学生想当医生。“want to be+职业”是固定用法,意为“想成为……”。
【63题详解】
句意:10名学生想成为学校老师。“teacher”是可数名词单数,泛指一名学校老师,“school”是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词a。
【64题详解】
句意:此外,10名学生想成为老板来赚更多的钱。“There be...”句型表示“某地有某物”,此处表示有10个学生想成为老板,所以用there。
【65题详解】
句意:虽然我不够强壮,但我打算做更多的锻炼。“be going to do sth.”是一般将来时的一种表达结构,表示“打算做某事”,此处表示打算做更多的锻炼。
七、补全对话(5小题,每小题2分,共10分)
A: Hi, Tom. How are you doing today?
B: As busy as a bee. ________________66________________.
A: Art lessons? How often do you have art lessons?
B: ________________67________________.
A: What do you think of them?
B: They are amazing. ________________68________________?
A:I’m busy making a survey report.
B: ________________69________________?
A: It’s about what the best movie theater is in my city.
B: Great! Would you like to finish it with me?
A: I’d love to. See you later.
B: ________________70________________.
【答案】66. I’m having art lessons
67. Once a week/Twice a week/Three times a week/...
68. What about you/And you/...
69. What’s it about
70. See you
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了A和Tom的对话,A询问Tom的近况,Tom表示很忙因为有美术课,两人接着交流美术课的频率、看法,以及A正在做的调查报告相关内容,最后Tom邀请A一起完成报告,两人约定再见。
【66题详解】
A发出疑问美术课?可知,Tom忙的原因是“正在上美术课”,用现在进行时表示当前正在进行的动作,“I’m having art lessons”符合语境,自然引出下文关于美术课的讨论。
【67题详解】
A问多久上一次美术课?是对频率的提问,回答需用表示频率的短语,“Once a week/Twice a week/Three times a week/...”等频率短语都能合理回答该问题。
【68题详解】
Tom说了自己对美术课的看法,下文A回答忙于做调查报告,此处用“What about you/And you/...”来询问A的情况,是日常对话中询问对方相同问题的常用表达,使对话衔接自然。
【69题详解】
A回答是关于我的城市里最好的电影院,所以此处用“What’s it about”来询问调查报告的内容,符合对话逻辑。
【70题详解】
A说待会见,此处用“See you”来回应,是日常告别时的常用表达,符合英语表达习惯。

He asked the old woman, “Why do you keep giving him extra oranges even though he’s unfriendly to you?” The old woman smiled and said, “I know what he’s trying to do. He wants me to eat an orange. So, it’s not really like I’m giving him more oranges—his kindness makes up the difference.” Caring about others also brings more love to yourself.
