Let’s read two poems by Chinese and Western writers. To Wang Lun By Li Bai Li Bai, sits in a boat about to go. When suddenly on shore your farewell songs overflow. However deep the Lake of Peach Blossoms may be, It is not so deep, O Wang Lun, as your love for me. (Translated by Xu Yuanchong) A Time to Talk (Adapted Version) By Robert Frost When a friend calls me from the road And slows down his horse, I don’t stand still and look around I shout from where I am, “What’s it?” I throw my hoe (锄头) on the ground， And walk over to the stone wall For a friendly visit. 25.

My father was a successful businessman. I had two elder brothers. One of them worked in the army and was killed during the war against Spain. The other was missing one day, and we never knew what happened to him. My father gave me a good education and wanted me to be a lawyer. However, I wanted to be a sailor and go to sea. My father was very angry with me. He didn’t understand why I wanted to leave his house, where I would have an easy and comfortable life. “Two kinds of people go to sea,” he said. “They are the very poor people and the very rich people. The poor are foolish, having no other ways to live. The rich own ships and can make money with them. You are neither too poor nor too rich. You are in the middle, so you should choose a middle way for your life. Stay at home with your mother and me. Your elder brother didn’t listen to me, and now he is dead. If you do not listen to me, you will have a difficult life.” I tried to do what he wanted me to do, but I couldn’t. I spoke to my mother. “Please ask Dad if he will let me have one voyage (航海) by sea.” I asked her, “When I return, I will live the life he wants me to live.” Mum was angry. “Your father will not let you go. I don’t want you to go to sea either. It’s dangerous.” I argued with my parents for another year. Then, I went to Hull with a friend who was going to London by ship. He invited me to go with him, and I agreed. I did not even tell my parents before leaving. I just went. That was how all my bad luck began. (Taken from Robinson Crusoe) 28.

Robinson would have a difficult life after he started sailing. D. Robinson’s parents had to let him go sailing with a friend. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文节选自《鲁滨逊漂流记》，讲述了鲁滨逊年轻时不顾父母反对，执意出海冒险，最终开启了坎坷命运的开端。 【28题详解】 文中第一段提到“One of them worked in the army and was killed during the war against Spain.”，说明鲁滨逊的一位兄弟死于对西班牙的战争。 【29题详解】 根据第一段“The other was missing one day, and we never know what happened to him.”可知，首先发生的是鲁滨逊的一个哥哥失踪了，即d；根据第三段“You are in the middle, so you should choose a middle way for your life.”可知，接下来鲁滨逊的父亲要求他选择一条中间的道路来度过他的一生，即e；根据第六段“Mum was angry. ‘Your father will not let you go. I don’t want you to go to sea either. It’s dangerous.’”可知，然后鲁滨逊的母亲阻止他去航海，即c；根据最后一段“I argued with my parents for another year.”可知，接下来鲁滨逊又和父母争论了一年，即b；根据最后一段“Then, I went to Hull with a friend who was going to London by ship. He invited me to go with him, and I agreed. I did not even tell my parents before leaving. I just went.”可知，最后鲁滨逊没有告诉父母就和朋友去航海了，即a。因此，正确的顺序是d-e-c-b-a。 【30题详解】 文中最后一句提到“That was how all my bad luck began.”，暗示鲁滨逊开始航海后会遭遇不幸，生活艰难，对应选项C；A错误，文中提到穷人航海是因为别无选择，并非能赚大钱；B错误，母亲也反对他航海；D错误，他是瞒着父母离开的，父母并未同意。 C Do you like cycling?

Reading more books every day is helpful to ________ (improve) our knowledge. 【答案】improve 【解析】 【详解】句意：每天多读书有助于提高我们的知识。根据“is helpful to”提示，此处为be helpful to do sth.“做某事有帮助”，动词不定式作状语，to后接动词原形improve。 49. If the learning methods ________ (work) well, more students will get good grades. 【答案】work 【解析】 【详解】句意：如果这些学习方法有效，更多的学生将取得好成绩。本句为if引导的条件状语从句，遵循“主将从现”的时态规则，即主句用一般将来时，从句用一般现在时。从句主语the learning methods为复数形式，因此谓语动词用原形work。 50. The terrible earthquake made a large number of people ________ (lose) their lives. 【答案】lose 【解析】 【详解】句意：这场可怕的地震导致大量的人失去了生命。句中make是使役动词，固定用法为make sb do sth，意为“使某人做某事”，其后接动词原形。故填lose。 51. What ________ everyone except the twins ________ ( discuss) at the moment? 【答案】 ①. is ②. discussing 【解析】 【详解】句意：此刻除了这对双胞胎，其他人正在讨论什么？ 结合“at the moment (此刻)”的语境，句子需用现在进行时(结构为“be + 现在分词”)；“except”连接主语时，谓语单复数由“except”前的“everyone” (不定代词，作主语时谓语用单数) 决定，故①填is，②填discussing。 52. There ________  (be) little clean water in the future, will there? 【答案】will be 【解析】 【详解】句意：在未来将没有干净的水了，是吗？反意疑问句的附加部分“will there”提示主句用将来时，反意疑问句遵循“前肯后否，前否后肯”的原则，主句中“little”是否定词，填will be。 53. Remember to be kind to lose friends than ________ (make) friends. 【答案】to make 【解析】 【详解】句意：记住，失去朋友比结交朋友更友善。根据句中“than”可知，此处为两者比较，前后结构需保持一致。前文“to lose friends”为不定式结构，因此空处也应使用不定式形式，故填to make。 54. Don’t you know how many problems the 6-year-old boy has ________ (describe) his hobbies? 【答案】describing 【解析】 【详解】句意：难道你不知道这个六岁的男孩描述他的爱好时遇到了多少困难吗？观察可知此句中使用了have problems doing sth短语，意思是“做某事遇到了困难”，动名词作介词的宾语。 所以这里需要把动词describe变成动名词形式describing。 55. This kind of milk which is quite popular among young people ________ (sell) out yesterday. 【答案】was sold 【解析】 【详解】句意：这种很受年轻人欢迎的牛奶昨天卖光了。根据“This kind of milk which is quite popular among young people...out yesterday.”可知，此处考查被动语态sth be sold out“某物被卖光了”。主语This kind of milk为第三人称单数，且根据“yesterday”，时态用一般过去时，因此用was sold out。故填was sold。 七、完成句子：本大题共5小题，共5分。 56. 当时，我们没有意识到这个问题。 At that time, we weren’t ________. 【答案】aware of this problem 【解析】 【详解】原句中“意识到”和“这个问题”是关键词。由于空前已给出be动词的否定形式weren’t，表示“意识到”需用形容词短语be aware of；“这个问题”表达为this problem。 57. 她的特殊才能使她上学期在同类中鹤立鸡群。 Her special talent ________ her classmates last term. 【答案】set her apart from 【解析】 【详解】原句中“使……鹤立鸡群”是关键词。“使……鹤立鸡群/使……与众不同”用动词短语set sb. apart from...，由时间状语last term可知，句子描述过去发生的事情，时态为一般过去时，动词set的过去式仍为set，宾语为her，故填set her apart from。 58. 在做数学题时，你最好要细心。 You ________ math problems. 【答案】had better be careful when dealing with 【解析】 【详解】原句中“最好”“细心”“在做……时”是关键词。“最好”的英文表达是had better，后接动词原形；“细心”用形容词careful，前需加be动词构成系表结构；“在做……时（处理）”用连词when搭配动词短语deal with，此处为状语从句的省略，用现在分词形式dealing，故填had better be careful when dealing with。 59. 使我们惊讶的是，他和所有同学相处融洽。 ________ all his classmates. 【答案】To our surprise, he gets along well with 【解析】 【详解】根据中文表达“使我们惊讶的是”对应英文固定短语“To our surprise”，与某人相处融洽的英文表达为“get along well with sb.”，主语是“he”，谓语动词用第三人称单数“gets”，而题目已给出“all his classmates”，因此空格处需填入“To our surprise, he gets along well with”。 60. 你学习越努力，你犯的错误就越少。 ________ mistakes you will make. 【答案】The harder you study, the fewer 【解析】 【详解】原句中“越……越……”是关键结构，表示“越……就越……”的英语固定句型是“The+形容词/副词比较级+主语+谓语，the+形容词/副词比较级+主语+谓语”。“努力”用副词hard修饰动词study，hard的比较级为harder；“错误”是可数名词mistake，此处用复数形式mistakes表泛指，修饰可数名词复数表示“数量少”用few，其比较级为fewer。故填The harder you study,the fewer。 八、书面表达：本大题共1小题，共15分。 61. 俗话说，同道为朋，同志为友。在茫茫人海中，能够遇到好朋友，是一种缘分，也是一种幸运。请以“My _______ friend”为题，写一篇英文短文，分享你们之间的故事。 1.

My father was a successful businessman. I had two elder brothers. One of them worked in the army and was killed during the war against Spain. The other was missing one day, and we never knew what happened to him. My father gave me a good education and wanted me to be a lawyer. However, I wanted to be a sailor and go to sea. My father was very angry with me. He didn’t understand why I wanted to leave his house, where I would have an easy and comfortable life. “Two kinds of people go to sea,” he said. “They are the very poor people and the very rich people. The poor are foolish, having no other ways to live. The rich own ships and can make money with them. You are neither too poor nor too rich. You are in the middle, so you should choose a middle way for your life. Stay at home with your mother and me. Your elder brother didn’t listen to me, and now he is dead. If you do not listen to me, you will have a difficult life.” I tried to do what he wanted me to do, but I couldn’t. I spoke to my mother. “Please ask Dad if he will let me have one voyage (航海) by sea.” I asked her, “When I return, I will live the life he wants me to live.” Mum was angry. “Your father will not let you go. I don’t want you to go to sea either. It’s dangerous.” I argued with my parents for another year. Then, I went to Hull with a friend who was going to London by ship. He invited me to go with him, and I agreed. I did not even tell my parents before leaving. I just went. That was how all my bad luck began. (Taken from Robinson Crusoe) 28.

Do you want to have a safer and more comfortable cycling experience? LIVALL, a smart helmet (智能头盔) producer, is trying its best to do this. EVO21, LIVALL’s latest product, has wide-angle front lights and super-bright 270° back lights. With these lights, cyclists can see the surrounding (周围的) environment clearly. At the same time, the bright lights will make cyclists easily noticed on the street. There is a sensor (感应器) in the helmet. So whenever you are slowing down or coming to a stop, the sensor will turn on the warning light on the back of the helmet. So cyclists can keep their eyes on the road, instead of worrying about what’s behind them. So, if you like cycling, EVO21 is a good choice for you. Safety is no longer a problem with EVO21’s SOS technology. If there is an accident, you can press the remote which is set on your bicycle. It can send a text message to your family with your exact location (位置). You don’t have to worry about wrong alarms. If you don’t get hurt, or if you simply drop your helmet, you can cancel (取消) the alarm in less than 90 seconds with the remote. LIVALL Riding is an app that can connect (连接) you with other cycling lovers. So when you see a beautiful sunrise on your morning cycling next time, you can share it with them. EVO21 is waterproof (防水的), so the lights and the remote can work smoothly in any weather. Because of its creative shape, the helmet can keep you cool on the way. Besides, the helmet can work for about 10 hours after being charged (充电). That means you can use the helmet for a week! EVO21 can offer cyclists a safer and more comfortable cycling experience.
