Each year, we get lots of cards from friends—some with family photos, some with bright holiday wishes. This year, I wanted to send out cards with nice family pictures. After taking my two sons to school, I called a local photographer. He said he could come on Sunday morning. He told us all to wear white shirts. I thought it would be perfect. But I had so much to do—shopping, cooking, and taking care of everyone. On top of that, I had to find white shirts for the whole family. I finally bought white polo shirts for all of us. I felt proud and excited. Everything was ready! But on Saturday night, when I said good night to my younger son Jim, I noticed his hair. It was a complete mess! He really needed a haircut, and it was too late to go to a salon (美发厅). Then I had an idea. I got my scissors and made our bathroom into a little “salon”. My son sat still while I tried to cut his hair. When I finished, we looked at each other ... It was terrible! I had never cut hair before. What was I thinking? I told my husband what happened. He gave Jim a funny look and said, “This is the worst haircut ever!” I felt awful. But then he smiled and said, “Don’t be so sad. Let me fix it.” Soon, both of our boys came to me—with matching buzz cuts (寸头)! A minute later, my husband showed up ... with a buzz cut too! Our holiday cards turned out great—with a little less hair, and a lot more love. 21. Why did the family need white shirts? A. For a school event. B. For a holiday party. C. To take family photos. 22. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. Jim’s hair. B. Jim’s shirt. C. The salon. 23. How did the mother feel right after cutting her son’s hair? A. Angry and nervous. B. Proud and excited. C. Awful and regretful. 24. What do the husband’s words and actions show? A. He was humorous and full of love for his family. B. He was angry with his wife for making a mistake. C. He cared more about looks than family happiness. 25. Which might be the best title for the passage? A. A Lesson Learned B. A Terrible Haircut Experience C. An Unforgettable and Warm Holiday Memory 【答案】21. C 22. A 23. C 24. A 25. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇温馨记叙文，讲述了作者为拍摄圣诞节日家庭照片准备时，意外给小儿子剪坏头发，最终丈夫用幽默和爱化解尴尬，留下充满爱意的节日回忆的故事。 【21题详解】 第一段提到“This year, I wanted to send out cards with nice family pictures.”，第二段提到摄影师要求全家穿白衬衫，因此穿白衬衫是为了拍摄家庭照片。 【22题详解】 第四段提到“I noticed his hair.

Their journey from a simple idea to a popular food is amazing. Momofuku Ando, the founder of Nissin Foods, invented instant noodles. Nissin Foods is a famous Japanese food company. After World War II, Japan was poor and there was not enough food. Ando wanted to make a cheap, quick meal. He spent a year trying different ways. In 1958, he introduced “Chicken Ramen (拉面) ”, the world’s first instant noodle product. The product became popular because of a special way of cooking: quick-frying. This method took water out of the noodles quickly, so they could stay fresh for a long time. By just adding hot water, people could prepare a meal in a minute. Also, Ando knew taste was important. “Chicken Ramen” had a chicken soup flavor (味道), and it tasted like real Japanese ramen, so the cheap, quick and delicious food was soon enjoyed by more and more people. In the 1970s, Nissin Foods introduced something new: cup noodles. People didn’t need a bowl — they just added hot water to the cup! This made instant noodles even easier to eat and widely loved, especially by students and busy workers. Soon, instant noodles went to many other countries. In Asia and Africa, they used local food to make different flavors. Today, China eats the most instant noodles in the world, followed by Indonesia. Though instant noodles are popular, some people say they are not healthy. They believe that instant noodles are high in salt and low in nutrition (营养) . So, businesses have started making noodles with less salt and more vegetables. Businesses are still making new flavors. They even make some noodles from plants. If they keep up with what people want, instant noodles will stay popular. 26. Why did Ando invent instant noodles? A. To start a new business. B. To compete with other food companies. C. To solve the problem of Japan having little food. 27. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?​ A. The ways to cook instant noodles. B. The reasons for instant noodles’ popularity. C. The importance of the chicken soup flavor. 28. How did different countries improve instant noodles? A. By copying Japanese ramen. B. By inventing new cooking methods. C. By adding local food for different flavors. 29. What might businesses do about instant noodles in the future? A. Develop new healthier products. B. Stop using plants to make noodles. C. Use more salt to keep noodles fresh. 30. Where does the passage probably come from? A. A movie poster. B. A food culture article. C. A sport report. 【答案】26. C 27. B 28. C 29. A 30. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了方便面的发明背景、受欢迎的原因、在不同国家的改良、面临的健康争议以及未来的发展趋势。 【26题详解】 第二段中“After World War II, Japan was poor and there was not enough food. Ando wanted to make a cheap, quick meal.”，Ando发明方便面是为了解决日本食物短缺的问题。 【27题详解】 第三段首句“The product became popular because of a special way of cooking: quick-frying.”以及后续提到的加水即食的便利性和美味的口味可知，本段主要讲述了方便面受欢迎的原因。 【28题详解】 第五段中“In Asia and Africa, they used local food to make different flavors.”，不同国家通过添加当地食物来改善方便面的口味。 【29题详解】 第六段中“So, businesses have started making noodles with less salt and more vegetables.”以及第七段提到用植物制作面条可知，为了满足健康需求，商家未来可能会开发更健康的新产品。 【30题详解】 通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了方便面这一食物的发明历史、文化传播、消费情况及未来发展，属于饮食文化类的文章内容，不可能出自电影海报或体育报道。 D No one wants to go on a fun trip but end up spending the whole time running to the bathroom! While bad seafood might cause a stomachache, the trip itself can also upset your stomach. Your stomach is full of tiny helpers that work to digest (消化) your food. But when you travel, things change. Sitting for too long, changing time zones (时区), and not sleeping on time can all make your stomach feel uncomfortable. For one thing, sitting on a plane or in a car for hours can squeeze your stomach. This slows down how food moves, and your stomach may feel uncomfortable. Also, your body has a “daily clock” that helps it know when to eat, sleep, and even poop (排便)! But when you travel far, this clock gets mixed up. You might not go to the bathroom like you normally do. Sleep matters, too. If you don’t get enough sleep, your stomach can become upset. You may even feel like eating a lot of sweet snacks, which can make things worse. The good news? You can stop stomach troubles before they start! Try standing up and stretching (伸展) every hour on the plane or during long car rides. If you’re flying across time zones, begin changing your bedtime a few days early to help your body get used to the new time. And before your trip, be sure to sleep well every night. A rested body is a happy body, and that means a happy stomach, too. So remember: move, sleep, and plan early. That way, your trip can be full of fun, not bathroom runs! 31. According to Paragraph 2, what can upset your stomach when you travel? ①Changing time zones. ②Sitting for a long time. ③Drinking too little water. ④Sleeping at different times than usual. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ②③④ 32. What does the underlined word “squeeze” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese? A. 放松 B. 挤压 C. 清洗 33. If someone sleeps poorly before a trip, what might happen? A. They may want to eat sweet snacks. B. Their ability to digest food may improve. C. Their body temperature might rise a little. 34. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The best foods to eat while traveling. B. Different kinds of stomach problems. C. Ways to help your stomach feel better when traveling. 35. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage? A. To show how digestion works. B. To warn people not to travel too often. C. To explain stomach problems during trips and give advice. 【答案】31. B 32. B 33. A 34. C 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了旅行中胃部不适的常见原因，并给出了针对性的预防建议，帮助读者拥有舒适愉快的旅程。 【31题详解】 第二段“Sitting for too long, changing time zones…, and not sleeping on time can all make your stomach feel uncomfortable.”可知，久坐（②）、改变时区（①）和不按时睡觉（④）都会导致胃部不适，文中未提及喝水少（③）。 【32题详解】 第三段“sitting on a plane or in a car for hours can squeeze your stomach”及语境可知，长时间坐着会“挤压”胃部，导致食物移动变慢。 【33题详解】 第三段“If you don’t get enough sleep…You may even feel like eating a lot of sweet snacks”可知，睡眠不足可能让人想吃甜食。 【34题详解】 第四段提到了伸展身体、提前调整就寝时间、旅前睡好觉等建议，旨在说明如何预防及缓解旅行中的胃部不适。 【35题详解】 通读全文可知，文章先分析了旅行中胃部不适的原因（第二段、第三段），随后给出了预防建议（第四段），目的是解释问题并提供建议。 四、口语交际（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） A: What’s that in your pencil box, Amy? B: Oh, it’s a smart dictionary pen. A: A dictionary pen? ____36____ B: You just scan (扫描) a word with it, and it plays the pronunciation and shows the meaning on the screen.

E 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了A和Amy围绕智能词典笔展开的对话，两人交流了词典笔的使用方法、优势、功能、价格，最后A也表达了想要购买的想法。 【36题详解】 Amy介绍这是“a smart dictionary pen”后，A询问相关问题，Amy回答“You just scan a word with it, and it plays the pronunciation and shows the meaning on the screen”，详细说明了操作方式，因此此处A应询问它的工作原理，C选项“How does it work?”符合语境。 【37题详解】 Amy回答“Yes. Compared to a paper dictionary, it saves a lot of time”，这是对一般疑问句的肯定回答，且内容围绕“节省时间”展开，因此此处A应询问它是否比纸质词典更省时，F选项“Does it save more time than a paper dictionary?”符合问答逻辑。 【38题详解】 Amy介绍了词典笔的核心功能后，A接着询问“What else can it be used for?”，说明此处A需要先对已介绍的功能作出积极回应，A选项“Sounds great.”是自然的肯定评价，符合对话节奏。 【39题详解】 Amy回答“400 yuan”，这是对价格的回答，因此此处A应询问价格，B选项“How much is it?”符合语境。 【40题详解】 A后句提到“Maybe it can help me improve my reading speed”，且Amy回应“You should! Let me show you how to use it after school”，说明A表达了想要购买的意愿，E选项“I’d like to buy one too.”符合对话逻辑。 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题 共50分） 一、单词填空（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 41.

For the past several years, public primary schools in that town didn’t offer music classes. They didn’t have the money to pay for them. But now they have got the money to bring back music. Many school officials across the USA say music classes get students excited about going to school. Also, studies have shown that music classes may boost (使增长) brainpower. For example, researchers from the University of Southern California did a study. They found that the brains of 10-and 11-year-olds who learned to play a musical instrument developed faster than the brains of kids who didn’t. Though most people aren’t against teaching music at school, not everyone says it’s necessary. Many school teachers argue that learning music means less time spent on math, writing and science, all of which may be more helpful to students later in life. Here’s what two kids think. Music should be taught at school for the simple reason that it makes learning more fun. We have music classes at my school, and I love them! In 2015, a research company called Grunwald Associates did a survey on music education. More than 60 percent of parents whose kids took music classes at school said their child is more focused (注意力集中的). Noah At my school, we don’t have music classes. I think that’s OK because it gives us more time to focus on main subjects, like reading and math. It’s more important to learn these subjects than it is to learn how to play a musical instrument. If someone wants to take music classes, he or she can do it outside of school. I take piano classes after school, so it doesn’t take time away from my other classes. Sofia ____56____ about offering music classes Public primary schools in Bellaire, Ohio, USA can offer music classes again after several years. This caused a heated argument.

Each year, we get lots of cards from friends—some with family photos, some with bright holiday wishes. This year, I wanted to send out cards with nice family pictures. After taking my two sons to school, I called a local photographer. He said he could come on Sunday morning. He told us all to wear white shirts. I thought it would be perfect. But I had so much to do—shopping, cooking, and taking care of everyone. On top of that, I had to find white shirts for the whole family. I finally bought white polo shirts for all of us. I felt proud and excited. Everything was ready! But on Saturday night, when I said good night to my younger son Jim, I noticed his hair. It was a complete mess! He really needed a haircut, and it was too late to go to a salon (美发厅). Then I had an idea. I got my scissors and made our bathroom into a little “salon”. My son sat still while I tried to cut his hair. When I finished, we looked at each other ... It was terrible! I had never cut hair before. What was I thinking? I told my husband what happened. He gave Jim a funny look and said, “This is the worst haircut ever!” I felt awful. But then he smiled and said, “Don’t be so sad. Let me fix it.” Soon, both of our boys came to me—with matching buzz cuts (寸头)! A minute later, my husband showed up ... with a buzz cut too! Our holiday cards turned out great—with a little less hair, and a lot more love. 21. Why did the family need white shirts? A. For a school event. B. For a holiday party. C. To take family photos. 22. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. Jim’s hair. B. Jim’s shirt. C. The salon. 23. How did the mother feel right after cutting her son’s hair? A. Angry and nervous. B. Proud and excited. C. Awful and regretful. 24. What do the husband’s words and actions show? A. He was humorous and full of love for his family. B. He was angry with his wife for making a mistake. C. He cared more about looks than family happiness. 25. Which might be the best title for the passage? A. A Lesson Learned B. A Terrible Haircut Experience C. An Unforgettable and Warm Holiday Memory C Instant noodles (方便面) are enjoyed by people all over the world. Their journey from a simple idea to a popular food is amazing. Momofuku Ando, the founder of Nissin Foods, invented instant noodles. Nissin Foods is a famous Japanese food company. After World War II, Japan was poor and there was not enough food. Ando wanted to make a cheap, quick meal. He spent a year trying different ways. In 1958, he introduced “Chicken Ramen (拉面) ”, the world’s first instant noodle product. The product became popular because of a special way of cooking: quick-frying. This method took water out of the noodles quickly, so they could stay fresh for a long time. By just adding hot water, people could prepare a meal in a minute. Also, Ando knew taste was important. “Chicken Ramen” had a chicken soup flavor (味道), and it tasted like real Japanese ramen, so the cheap, quick and delicious food was soon enjoyed by more and more people. In the 1970s, Nissin Foods introduced something new: cup noodles. People didn’t need a bowl — they just added hot water to the cup! This made instant noodles even easier to eat and widely loved, especially by students and busy workers. Soon, instant noodles went to many other countries. In Asia and Africa, they used local food to make different flavors. Today, China eats the most instant noodles in the world, followed by Indonesia. Though instant noodles are popular, some people say they are not healthy. They believe that instant noodles are high in salt and low in nutrition (营养) . So, businesses have started making noodles with less salt and more vegetables. Businesses are still making new flavors. They even make some noodles from plants. If they keep up with what people want, instant noodles will stay popular. 26. Why did Ando invent instant noodles? A. To start a new business. B. To compete with other food companies. C. To solve the problem of Japan having little food. 27. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?​ A. The ways to cook instant noodles. B. The reasons for instant noodles’ popularity. C. The importance of the chicken soup flavor. 28. How did different countries improve instant noodles? A. By copying Japanese ramen. B. By inventing new cooking methods. C. By adding local food for different flavors. 29. What might businesses do about instant noodles in the future? A. Develop new healthier products. B. Stop using plants to make noodles. C. Use more salt to keep noodles fresh. 30. Where does the passage probably come from? A. A movie poster. B. A food culture article. C. A sport report. D No one wants to go on a fun trip but end up spending the whole time running to the bathroom! While bad seafood might cause a stomachache, the trip itself can also upset your stomach. Your stomach is full of tiny helpers that work to digest (消化) your food. But when you travel, things change. Sitting for too long, changing time zones (时区), and not sleeping on time can all make your stomach feel uncomfortable. For one thing, sitting on a plane or in a car for hours can squeeze your stomach. This slows down how food moves, and your stomach may feel uncomfortable. Also, your body has a “daily clock” that helps it know when to eat, sleep, and even poop (排便)! But when you travel far, this clock gets mixed up. You might not go to the bathroom like you normally do. Sleep matters, too. If you don’t get enough sleep, your stomach can become upset. You may even feel like eating a lot of sweet snacks, which can make things worse. The good news? You can stop stomach troubles before they start! Try standing up and stretching (伸展) every hour on the plane or during long car rides. If you’re flying across time zones, begin changing your bedtime a few days early to help your body get used to the new time. And before your trip, be sure to sleep well every night. A rested body is a happy body, and that means a happy stomach, too. So remember: move, sleep, and plan early. That way, your trip can be full of fun, not bathroom runs! 31. According to Paragraph 2, what can upset your stomach when you travel? ①Changing time zones. ②Sitting for a long time. ③Drinking too little water. ④Sleeping at different times than usual. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ②③④ 32. What does the underlined word “squeeze” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese? A. 放松 B. 挤压 C. 清洗 33. If someone sleeps poorly before a trip, what might happen? A. They may want to eat sweet snacks. B. Their ability to digest food may improve. C. Their body temperature might rise a little. 34. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The best foods to eat while traveling. B. Different kinds of stomach problems. C. Ways to help your stomach feel better when traveling. 35. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage? A. To show how digestion works. B. To warn people not to travel too often. C. To explain stomach problems during trips and give advice. 四、口语交际（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） A: What’s that in your pencil box, Amy?
