Have a look at my house in the country. I’m sure you can enjoy yourself. John: I’d love to. But I hear that the food is not delicious, and your house is not good. Is that true? Mike: No, that’s not true. Go and see! Then John went to the countryside with Mike. John: Why do you live in a hole in the field? You should come and live in the city. You would live in a nice house made of stone. You can have better food to eat. You must come and see me at my house in the city. Mike: Thanks! Maybe you are right. I’ll visit your house one day. Several days later, Mike went to John’s house in the city. The house was big and beautiful. They sat in the living room, having a big dinner comfortably. Suddenly, there was a big noise. John: Run! Run! The cat is coming! Mike: Oh, no! It’s terrible! Both the house and the food are nice, but I do not like living in the city.

Why? The days pass. Dorothy works very hard in the kitchen. She remembers Uncle Henry and Aunt Em in Kansas. She remembers her friends the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman. She is very sad and often cries. At night, she goes to see the Lion. The Witch doesn’t give him anything to eat or drink, so Dorothy takes food and water from the kitchen. She then lies down next to him, puts her head on his warm body and sleeps until the morning. The Witch watches Dorothy all the time. She is waiting for the right moment to take away her silver shoes. Dorothy doesn’t like her, so she is afraid to go near her when she is in the bath. One day, Dorothy is cleaning the kitchen and she slips (滑倒) on the wet floor. She falls over and one of her silver shoes comes off. The Witch is watching. She picks it up quickly and puts it on. “Give it back to me!” Dorothy shouts. “No, it’s my shoe now,” the Witch replies. “You’re a wicked (邪恶的) woman,” Dorothy says. There is a bucket of water near the door. The girl picks it up and throws the water over the Witch. “Aarrgh!” the Witch cries. “Water is the end of me!” And she starts to disappear in front of Dorothy’s eyes. “I’m going,” she says. “Going, going, going.” 36．Where does Dorothy work? 37．Who does Dorothy take food and water to at night? 38．When does one of Dorothy’s silver shoes come off? 39．Does the Witch get Dorothy’s silver shoes completely (完全地) at last? 40．What do you think of Dorothy in this passage? 阅读对话，完成任务。 Leo和Lucy正在谈论他们读过的书以及书籍的内容。 完成下列任务： 任务1：根据对话内容，回答问题。 41．Did the girl read Little Women for English class? 42．What did the brothers do in The Emperor’s New Clothes? 43．How did the mouse help the lion? 44．Do you know the story of The Emperor’s New Clothes? 任务2：请阅读上图中的对话，找到答案 。 45．请列举上述四组对话中的动词，并区分动词的时态。 参考答案 1．story 2．animals 3．finish 4．friends 5．usually 6．Instead 7．first 8．angry 9．likes 10．well 本文讲述了十二生肖中猫和老鼠的民间传说。 1．句意：有一个关于这件事的著名中国民间故事。folk story是固定搭配，指“民间故事”，和下文的传说背景呼应。 2．句意：玉皇大帝邀请所有的动物参加一场比赛。下文提到了“十二生肖”，所以这里指所有动物，用复数形式animals。 3．句意：最先完成比赛的十二只动物，将成为十二生肖的成员。不定式to后接动词原形，finish the race是“完成比赛”的意思。 4．句意：猫和老鼠是好朋友。主语是“猫和老鼠”两个主体，所以要用复数形式friends。 5．句意：我们得早起去比赛，但我通常都起得很晚。usually是副词，用来修饰动词短语wake up，表示“平时、通常”的习惯。 6．句意：相反，他自己去了集合区参加比赛并且赢得了第一名。前文说“老鼠答应叫醒猫”，却没做到，反而自己去了，instead“反而，相反”在这里表示转折。 7．句意：相反，他自己去了集合区参加比赛并且赢得了第一名。the first place是固定搭配，就是“第一名”的意思，one要变成序数词first。 8．句意：他感到非常生气。 猫错过了比赛，心情是“生气的”，angry是形容词，用来描述感受。 9．句意：从那天起，猫就再也不喜欢老鼠了。主语the cat是第三人称单数，结合上下文，句子是一般现在时，所以like要变成likes。 10．句意：这个故事告诉我们，认真信守承诺是很重要的。 keep one’s words是固定表达，意思是“信守承诺、说到做到”，well在这里是副词，修饰动词keep。 11．his 12．so 13．with 14．tell 15．walked 16．singing 17．another 18．water 19．secret 20．happily 本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了一位富人让儿子向智者请教幸福的秘诀，智者通过两次取水的经历，教会他既要欣赏生活之美，也不能忘记心中的目标，这才是幸福的真谛。 11．句意：他非常爱他的儿子。空处修饰名词son，应用形容词性物主代词，he的形容词性物主代词为his，“his”符合此语法功能。 12．句意：他想让他的儿子过上幸福的生活，所以他决定送他去见一位聪明的老人寻求建议。空格前后两句话是表示因果关系，前因后果，应用“so”。 13．句意：当老人知道这件事后，他给了男孩一个空碗，让他去河边，把碗装满水。固定搭配fill…with…，表示“用……装满……”。应用“with”。 14．句意：如果你回来时没有水洒出来，我就会告诉你关于它的事情。情态动词“will”后接动词原形，tell sb about sth.表示“告诉某人关于某事”。应用“tell”。 15．句意：男孩走到河边，端着一碗水回来了。“…to the river”表示“走到河边”，此处描述过去发生的事情，且与后面的came并列，应用一般过去时，walk的过去式为walked。应用“walked”。 16．句意：你看到沿路的漂亮花朵和树上唱歌的鸟儿了吗？固定用法：see sb/sth doing sth.，表示“看见某人/某物正在做某事”，强调动作正在进行，根据下文“the singing of birds”，应用现在分词“singing”。 17．句意：再给我端一碗水来，顺便欣赏一下路边的花朵和鸟儿的歌声。根据语境逻辑，男孩已经拿过一碗水了，老人让他再拿一碗，是“额外的、又一个”的意思，“another”符合这个用法。 18．句意：但是当他看着他的碗时，他发现大部分水都不见了。分析句子结构和语境可知，男孩端的是水，此处指大部分的水不见了，应用名词“water”。 19．句意：这就是幸福的秘密。分析句子结构可知，此处作表语，结合“the...of happiness”可知，指幸福的秘密，应用名词“secret”。 20．句意：只有这样你才能永远快乐地生活。“live…forever”表示“永远快乐地生活”，分析句子结构可知，空格处修饰动词live，应用副词形式，happy的副词为happily。 21．lost 22．him 23．soon 24．until 25．returned 26．Follow 27．at 28．island 29．But 30．enjoyed 本文讲述了一只螃蟹在森林中迷路，猴子帮助他找到大海并受邀到岛上做客的故事，体现了友谊与互助。 21．句意：他在回家的时候迷路了。此处需用形容词作表语，表示“迷路的”。方框中的“lose”意为“丢失”，其过去分词形式lost常作形容词，be lost意为“迷路”，lose需变为过去分词/形容词lost。 22．句意：一只猴子告诉他大海就在前面。“told”后需接双宾语，指“告诉某人”，代词用宾格。方框中“he”为主格代词，其宾格为“him”，代指螃蟹。 23．句意：直走，你很快就能看见它。此处需用副词表示“不久，很快”，soon意为“很快”，符合语境。 24．句意：螃蟹一直走了很长时间，直到太累走不动为止。此处表示动作持续到某个时间点，用连词“until”引导时间状语从句，意为“直到……为止”，引导时间状语。 25．句意：他返回到猴子那里。此处表示螃蟹生气后“返回”找猴子，动词“return”意为“返回”，符合语境，根据上下文应用一般过去时，return的过去式为returned。 26．句意：跟着我！此处需用动词表示“跟着”，follow“跟着”符合语境，祈使句以动词原形开头，且位于句首首字母需大写，故填Follow。 27．句意：很快，他们到达了大海。此处表示“到达”，arrive at为固定搭配，意为“到达（小地点）”，方框中介词at符合语境。 28．句意：我住在一个岛上。不定冠词“an”后接元音音素开头的单数名词，方框中“island”以元音音素开头，意为“岛屿”，island符合语境及语法。 29．句意：但是去岛上没有桥。前文邀请参观，后文说没有桥，此处存在转折关系，用连词“But”表示“但是”，首字母大写。 30．句意：晚饭后，他们一起欣赏星星。此处需用动词表示“欣赏”，动词“enjoy”意为“欣赏，享受”，根据上下文用一般过去时，其过去式为“enjoyed”，与“the stars”搭配自然。 31．They are good friends. 32．He lives in the city. 33．Because he is afraid of the cat there, and he thinks it is better to be poor but happy than to be rich but afraid. 34．He thinks each day in the city is exciting. 35．I want to be the mouse living in the country. Because the life there is simple and peaceful, and I don’t need to be afraid of danger all the time./I want to be the mouse living in the city. Because the life there is exciting, and I can enjoy better food and houses. 本文是一篇寓言记叙文，改编自经典寓言《城里老鼠和乡下老鼠》，通过两只老鼠的对话与经历，探讨了物质条件与生活幸福感的关系。 31．根据第1段中的“They are called John and Mike. They are good friends.”可知，John和Mike是好朋友。 32．根据第1段中的“One mouse lives in the country, the other mouse lives in the city.”第2段中“Mike: Hi, John! Have a look at my house in the country.”以及第6段中的“John: Why do you live in a hole in the field? You should come and live in the city”可知，John住在城市。 33．根据倒数第3段“John: Run! Run! The cat is coming!”和倒数第2段中的“Both the house and the food are nice, but I do not like living in the city. I enjoy living in my hole in the field, for it is better to be poor but happy than to be rich but afraid.”可知，他不喜欢城市是因为害怕猫，也更认同“贫穷但快乐”的生活状态。 34．根据最后1段中的“John: But each day is exciting, right?”可知，John认为城市生活是令人兴奋的。 35．这是一道开放性问题，结合文中两只老鼠的观点作答即可，言之有理即可得分。 36．She works in the kitchen. 37．The Lion. 38．When she slips on the wet floor and falls over. 39．No, she doesn’t. 40．She is brave and kind. 本文节选自《绿野仙踪》，讲述了Dorothy在女巫的控制下，在厨房辛苦劳作，夜晚偷偷给狮子送食物；女巫一直觊觎她的银鞋，趁Dorothy滑倒抢走一只，最终被Dorothy用水泼到而消失的故事。 36．根据文章第一段“Dorothy works very hard in the kitchen.” 可知，Dorothy在厨房工作。 37．根据文章第一段“At night, she goes to see the Lion. The Witch doesn’t give him anything to eat or drink, so Dorothy takes food and water from the kitchen.” 可知，Dorothy晚上给狮子带食物和水。 38．根据文章第三段“One day, Dorothy is cleaning the kitchen and she slips on the wet floor. She falls over and one of her silver shoes comes off.” 可知，Dorothy在湿地板上滑倒、摔倒时，银鞋掉了下来。 39．根据文章内容，女巫只拿到了一只银鞋，随后就被Dorothy用水泼到，最终消失了，并没有完全拿到银鞋。故作否定回答。 40．结合全文，Dorothy关心朋友，给狮子送食物，且勇敢对抗邪恶女巫，因此可以评价她善良、勇敢。 41．Yes, she did./No, she didn’t. 42．They lied to the emperor. 43．It bit through the net, and the lion got out. 44．Yes, I do./No, I don’t. 45． 一般现在时：do; know; tell; is 一般过去时：did; read; chose; bit; got; lied 本文是一段关于书籍内容的对话，主要通过Leo与Lucy的交流，围绕《小妇人》、《皇帝的新装》、《狮子和老鼠》等文学作品展开问答。 41．对话中针对“Did you read Little Women for English class?”的回答给出了两种选项：“Yes, I did. It is a great book./No, I didn’t. We chose a different book.” 42．对话中直接回答了“What did the brothers do?”的问题：“They lied to the emperor.”，结合《皇帝的新装》背景，此处的“brothers”指代骗子，他们向皇帝撒谎说衣服是真的。 43．对话中直接回答了“How did the mouse help the lion?”的问题：“It bit through the net, and the lion got out.”，老鼠咬破了网，狮子就逃了出来。 44．问句“Do you know the story of The Emperor’s New Clothes?”含有助动词“Do”，可进行肯定或否定回答：Yes, I do./No, I don’t. 45．一般现在时：do; know; tell; is 一般过去时：did; read; chose; bit; got; lied 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
