【解析】
【导语】本文是记叙文,讲述热爱舞蹈的男孩Denis不顾父母反对坚持练习,和妹妹合作演出后获得父母认可、坚定追梦的故事。
【1题详解】
句意:我父母总说跳舞是女孩的运动,所以他们不允许我跳舞。
allow表示“允许”,搭配“allow sb to do sth”符合此处带to的不定式结构;let/make后接省略to的不定式,ask“询问/要求”语义不符。
【2题详解】
句意:我通过看电影和演出偷偷练习。
前文提到父母不允许Denis跳舞,因此他只能偷偷练习,secretly“偷偷地”符合语境;openly“公开地”、loudly“大声地”、quickly“快速地”均不符合逻辑。
【3题详解】
句意:没有他们的支持,我的梦想看起来不可能实现。
得不到父母支持,追梦看起来难以实现,impossible“不可能的”符合语境;easy“容易的”、important“重要的”、interesting“有趣的”均不符合。
【4题详解】
句意:我问父母我是否可以送妹妹去上舞蹈课。
Denis想要借机学舞,询问父母是否同意,if“是否”引导宾语从句符合语义;when“当……时”、until“直到”、although“虽然”均不符合语义。
【5题详解】
句意:这对我来说是一个学习的好机会。
Denis获得了学习舞蹈的契机,chance“机会”符合语境;place“地点”、reason“理由”、expression“表达”均不符合。
【6题详解】
句意:一天下午,我正在房间练习的时候,妹妹进来了。
come in表示“进来”,符合妹妹进入房间找Denis帮忙的语境;come on“加油/上演”、come out“出版”、come away“离开”均不符合。
【7题详解】
句意:没有一个男孩愿意和我一起跳舞。
前文提到男孩们都觉得妹妹很慢,因此没人愿意和她搭档,None“没有一个”符合语境;All“所有”、Both“两者都”、Some“一些”均不符合语义。
【8题详解】
句意:我们要让他们看看,他们错了!
Denis鼓励妹妹,反驳男孩们的看法,wrong“错误的”符合语境;mad“疯狂的”、right“正确的”、normal“正常的”均不符合。
【9题详解】
句意:玛丽进步了很多。
两人一直坚持练习,因此妹妹的舞蹈水平进步很多,improved“进步”符合语境;did“做”、failed“失败”、forgot“忘记”均不符合。
【10题详解】
句意:当我听说父母会来看演出时,我变得很紧张。
Denis一直瞒着父母练舞,突然得知父母要来十分紧张,后文“深呼吸”也印证了这一点,nervous“紧张的”符合语境;bored“无聊的”、relaxed“放松的”、excited“兴奋的”均不符合。
【11题详解】
句意:音乐响起,我深吸了一口气。
take a deep breath 是固定搭配,意为“深呼吸”,符合缓解紧张的语境;deal“交易”、stress“压力”、suggestion“建议”均不构成正确搭配。
【12题详解】

前文提到我们跳得很完美,观众欢呼,说明演出很成功,successful“成功的”符合语境;useful“有用的”、hopeful“有希望的”、determined“坚定的”均不符合。
【13题详解】
句意:虽然我很难说出口,但你天生就是适合跳舞的。
be born to do sth是固定表达,意为“天生注定做某事”,符合父亲认可Denis天赋的语境;forced“被迫”、invited“邀请”语义不符,talented常搭配介词at接动名词,结构不符。
【14题详解】
句意:我已经等这个时刻等了太久了。
Denis一直渴望得到父母的认可,等待这一刻很久了,waited“等待”符合语境;asked“询问”、prepared“准备”、attracted“吸引”均不符合。
【15题详解】
句意:我人生中没有什么比跳舞更让我渴望了。
nothing more than固定结构,表达“莫过于,最”,符合Denis将跳舞视为人生最渴望的事的语境;anything“任何”、something“某事”、everything“一切”均不符合语义逻辑。

These days, students spend much time on computers or smartphones for fun. But do you know what games your parents played when they were children? Here are some of them.
Turned Rope
The game begins with a string (绳子) on fingers. There are two ways to play it.

Rubber Band Skipping
There are usually three players with a rope of about 4 meters long in this game.
Two players stand face to face. They put the rope on their ankles ( 脚 踝 ) first and make it straight. The third player (the jumper) then stands between the two sides of the rope and needs to finish some moves without making a mistake.
Paper Folding
It’s a kind of paper folding for guessing. People write four directions outside the paper and some other words inside, such as colors, jobs, and numbers. A kid lets someone choose one direction and asks how many times he or she moves. Then he or she can guess before the kid shows the final result.

One day, Pete’s grandfather came to visit him. They were having lunch when a storm suddenly came. Pete’s face was colorless with fear at once. Seeing this, his grandfather put his hand on Pete’s shoulder and said, “You are a brave boy. But where is your courage now? Does it hide itself when the storm comes?”
Pete began to look for his courage everywhere. He searched under his blanket, in his toy box, his bedroom and the bathroom, but found nothing. He felt grieved and couldn’t help crying.
Then the grandfather laughed, “Look! The storm is over.” Pete was surprised. He had been so busy looking for courage that he forgot to be afraid.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了小男孩Pete原本害怕暴风雨,在爷爷的引导下,通过寻找“勇气”的过程,明白了忘记恐惧就能获得勇气,最终克服了对暴风雨的恐惧的故事。
【21题详解】
根据第一段第三句“His parents tried to comfort him, saying he was safe inside the house.”可知,父母安慰他说待在屋子里是安全的。
【22题详解】
根据第三段第二句“He searched under his blanket, in his toy box, his bedroom and the bathroom…”可知,Pete找的地方包括毯子下、玩具箱、卧室和浴室,文中未提及“bed(床)”下面。
【23题详解】
根据第三段最后一句“…couldn’t help crying.”可知,Pete因为找不到勇气而感到难过和沮丧。“Sad and upset”意为“伤心和难过”,符合语境。
【24题详解】
根据文章发展顺序:首先爷爷来访(②);接着吃午饭时暴风雨来了(④);然后Pete到处寻找勇气却没找到(③);最后他忙于寻找勇气而忘记了害怕(①)。正确顺序为②④③①。
【25题详解】
文章主要讲述了Pete在爷爷的引导下,明白了勇气的真谛——当你忘记害怕时,勇气就在你心中。选项A“勇气的秘密”最能概括文章中心思想。
C
Do you know why different animals or insects (昆虫) have their own special colors? Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts (蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colors together with the change of the colors of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. As harvest time comes, locusts turn the same brown color as the crops. Other insects whose colors differ from the plants are easily found, so they have to hide themselves during the day and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of the color is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters. This is because they have the colors much like the trees.
Have you ever found an even more strange act? A kind of animal in the sea can send out a kind of black liquid (液体) when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over, its enemies cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. Therefore, it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.
26. Why can’t birds easily catch locusts?
A. Because locusts are very smart.
B. Because locusts fly faster than birds.
C. Because locusts are much bigger than birds.
D. Because locusts can change their colors with crops.
27. What can we learn about the insects that have different colors from plants?
A. They sleep all day long. B. They are stronger than locusts.
C. They may be in danger of being eaten. D. They are good at hiding during the day.
28. What is the main idea of the third paragraph?
A. Bears and lions are very strong animals.
B. Forests are good places for animals to live.
C. Hunters like to look for bears and lions in forests.
D. Some land animals use colors to protect themselves.
29. How does the sea animal protect itself from danger?
①Fights with enemies ②Sends out black liquid
③Swims away quickly ④Hides behind the rocks
A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①④ D. ③④
30. Where can we probably read the passage?
A. In a storybook. B. In a sports newspaper.
C. In a travel magazine. D. In a science magazine.
【答案】26. D 27. D 28. D 29. B 30. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇科普说明文,主要介绍了不同动物和昆虫如何利用自身特殊颜色保护自己,通过蝗虫随环境变色、陆地动物借助体色隐蔽、海洋生物释放液体避险等例子,揭示了动物保护色的生存智慧。
【26题详解】
根据第二段“It is because locusts change their colors together with the change of the colors of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green...”可知,蝗虫不容易被鸟抓住是因为它们能随着庄稼颜色的变化而改变自己的颜色。
【27题详解】
根据第二段“...so they have to hide themselves during the day and appear only at night.”可知,那些颜色与植物不同的昆虫为了避险,不得不白天躲藏,晚上出来。选项D“它们擅长在白天躲藏”最符合文中描述的生存行为特征。
【28题详解】
第三段首句“If you study the animal life, you'll find the main use of the color is to protect themselves.”是该段的主题句,随后列举了熊和狮子为例。因此该段主要讲述了一些陆地动物利用颜色来保护自己。
【29题详解】
根据最后一段“A kind of animal in the sea can send out a kind of black liquid...And it immediately swims away.”可知,这种海洋动物通过②喷出黑色液体并③迅速游走来保护自己。
【30题详解】
通读全文可知,文章介绍了动物和昆虫利用颜色或特殊行为保护自己的科学现象,属于科普类文章,因此最可能出现在科学杂志上。
第二节(共5题,每小题2分,满分共10分)

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了登革热的传播途径、症状、危害以及日常预防措施。
【31题详解】
根据“Dengue fever is a serious disease caused by a virus. It is mainly spread by mosquito bites.”可推知此处应进一步说明该疾病的现状或影响,F项“In recent years, it has become a big health problem.”符合语境,引出下文对登革热的详细介绍。
【32题详解】
根据“Only mosquitoes can carry it to people.”可推知前一句应说明不能通过其他方式传播,E项“It cannot be spread directly from person to person.”与后文构成逻辑互补,说明传播途径的唯一性。
【33题详解】
根据“People with dengue usually have a fever, headaches, and pain in muscles and joints.”以及后文“It may cause serious bleeding...”可推知此处需要转折引出严重性,B项“However, dengue can become very serious.”承上启下,连接普通症状与严重后果。
【34题详解】
根据“First, we must clean up standing water...”可推知此处解释清理积水的作用,A项“This stops mosquitoes from laying eggs.”解释了清理积水的原因,“This”指代清理积水这一行为。
【35题详解】
根据“If everyone takes simple but useful actions in daily life, we can greatly reduce the risk of dengue.”可推知此处总结日常行动的效果,C项“Small changes in daily life can keep us safe.”与上文“simple but useful actions”及“reduce the risk”呼应。

[第三步:要点拓展]
要点一:压力来源
Everyone feels stressed or upset sometimes. As middle school students, we often face different kinds of pressure, such as exams and relationships with others. However, it is important to know how to deal with it. / We middle school students often suffer from various kinds of pressure. The biggest one comes from schoolwork and exams. Besides, getting along with classmates or parents can sometimes make us feel stressed. Also, having too many after-school classes and high expectations from parents are common sources of pressure. / Some of us worry about our grades and feel nervous before tests. Others feel upset because they don’t know how to communicate with their friends or family members.
要点二:缓解压力的具体做法
Here are some useful ways. First, we should accept the pressure because it is a normal part of life. Second, it is a good idea to relax ourselves by listening to music or doing sports. Third, we can communicate with our parents or teachers when we have problems. They can give us some good advice. Finally, getting enough rest is also necessary.
关于接受压力,还可以写:We should realize that everyone has pressure and it’s not a bad thing completely. Proper pressure can even push us to work harder.
关于放松方式,可以具体展开:Doing sports is a great way to relax. For example, I often run for half an hour after school or play basketball with my friends on weekends. Listening to soft music or watching a funny movie can also help me forget my worries for a while. Sometimes I read my favorite books or draw pictures to calm myself down.
关于沟通求助,可以写:Talking to someone we trust is very helpful. When I feel stressed, I share my feelings with my mom or my best friend. They always listen to me patiently and give me useful suggestions. Our teachers can also help us find out the reasons for our pressure.
关于休息的必要性,可以写:Enough sleep is important for both our body and mind. If we stay up late studying, we will feel more tired and stressed the next day. So I make sure to go to bed before 10:30 every night.
还可以补充其他做法:Keeping a diary is also a good way. I write down my worries and feelings on paper, and then I feel much better. / Sometimes I take a deep breath and tell myself “I can do it”. Positive self-talk really works. / Doing something I enjoy, like cooking or gardening, helps me take my mind off pressure.
要点三:总结呼吁
In a word, if we try these ways, we will live a happier life. / Pressure is not terrible if we know how to deal with it. Let’s face it bravely and live a healthy and happy life. / All in all, everyone has pressure, but we can find our own ways to relax. The most important thing is to take action instead of worrying all the time. / So don’t be afraid of pressure. Try these methods and you will find that life becomes easier and more enjoyable.

Do you know why different animals or insects (昆虫) have their own special colors? Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts (蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colors together with the change of the colors of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. As harvest time comes, locusts turn the same brown color as the crops. Other insects whose colors differ from the plants are easily found, so they have to hide themselves during the day and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of the color is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters. This is because they have the colors much like the trees.
Have you ever found an even more strange act? A kind of animal in the sea can send out a kind of black liquid (液体) when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over, its enemies cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. Therefore, it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.
26. Why can’t birds easily catch locusts?
A. Because locusts are very smart.
B. Because locusts fly faster than birds.
C. Because locusts are much bigger than birds.
D. Because locusts can change their colors with crops.
27. What can we learn about the insects that have different colors from plants?
A. They sleep all day long. B. They are stronger than locusts.
C. They may be in danger of being eaten. D. They are good at hiding during the day.
