阅读下面四篇语言材料,然后按文后要求做题。
A
Slides (滑梯) are simple but always fun. All you need to do is to climb up to the top and slide down. But do you know that there is science behind it?
Newton said what goes up must come down. He talked about gravity (重力). Slides work because of gravity. But that is not all.
❶You climb up the slide and sit down.
You are ready to go. Are you sliding down? No, not yet. Things stay still unless something makes them ▲ . It is Newton’s First Law. So you have to give yourself a push to start the journey down.
❷Now you are sliding down.
Do you feel you are slowing down a little? When two things rub (摩擦) against each other, they cause friction (摩擦力). Without friction, you will slide down faster and faster to the bottom. That is more interesting, but more dangerous.
❸At the bottom of the slide, you come to a full stop.
Your feet touch the ground and add more friction. Newton’s First Law also says moving things keep moving unless something makes them stop. So if you do not use your feet, you’ll fly off the slide.
根据材料内容,选择最佳答案。
21. In order to slide down, what do you need to do after you climb up to the top?
A. Learn about gravity. B. Sit down and look forward.
C. Give yourself a push. D. Use your feet to make friction.
22. Which word can be put in “ ▲ ”?
A. stop B. end C. move D. wait
23. Which picture explains why you slow down a little when sliding down?
A. B. C. D.
24. What can we know from Newton’s First Law mentioned in the text?
A. Moving things won’t stop on their own.
B. Gravity is the only force that acts on a sliding person.
C. Friction is necessary to start moving down a slide.
D. You would slide down faster if there were no gravity on the earth.
25. Where can you probably read the text?
A. In a storybook. B. In a guidebook. C. In a school poster. D. In a science book.
【答案】21. C 22. C 23. B 24. A 25. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了滑梯背后的科学原理,包括重力、牛顿第一定律和摩擦力的作用。
【21题详解】
原文①提到“So you have to give yourself a push to start the journey down.”,由此可知爬到滑梯顶部后,需要推自己一下才能滑下去。
【22题详解】
根据牛顿第一定律的内容“物体在不受外力作用时,保持静止或匀速直线运动状态”,结合上下文“Things stay still unless something makes them ___”,静止的物体需要外力才能运动,因此空处应填move。
【23题详解】
原文②提到“When two things rub against each other, they cause friction. Without friction, you will slide down faster and faster to the bottom.”,说明下滑时速度变慢是因为摩擦力,因此标有“friction”的图片B能解释这一现象。
【24题详解】
原文③提到“Newton’s First Law also says moving things keep moving unless something makes them stop.”,由此可知运动的物体不会自己停下来。
【25题详解】
文章介绍了滑梯背后的重力、牛顿第一定律和摩擦力等科学知识,这类内容最可能出现在科学书中。
B
Light rain kept falling as I got to the mountain village. With a heavy bag on my back, I felt excited about teaching at a small school here, but also a little nervous. I wondered what these students would be like.
The school had only 18 students. Most were quiet in class, though they ran and laughed happily during break. One girl, Wen, always sat alone in the corner, saying almost nothing.
On my first day, I put up a poster on the wall that read “You are seen.” Some students smiled shyly, and some spoke softly. “That’s why I’m here,” I told them. But Wen didn’t look up. She just kept drawing small circles on her desk with her finger.
Days went by fast. I planned my lessons carefully, and the children were kind to me. Still, I felt my work didn’t make much difference. I wasn’t sure if I was doing anything meaningful.
One night, a strong storm cut off the power, and the classroom went dark. Everyone felt scared. Then a soft light appeared. It was Wen, holding a lantern in her hand. “We can still read,” she said in a quiet voice. It was the first time I had heard her speak.
The next day, she sat closer to her classmates. In the days after, she started to talk more. On my last day, she walked up and gave me the lantern. “So you will always have some light,” she said with a gentle smile. I came here to give light to others, but I found that light was quietly given back to me.
Volunteering isn’t always big or loud. Sometimes, it’s a small lantern, shared between two people, and shining in both directions. As I held the lantern in my hand, I knew I wasn’t ready to leave just yet.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
26. Why did the writer feel a little nervous when arriving at the village?
A. Because the weather was too bad.
B. Because the school was too small.
C. Because she didn’t know what the students would be like.
D. Because she had a heavy bag on her back.
27. What did the writer do on her first day in the classroom?
A. She drew circles on the desk with her finger.
B. She gave each student a small lantern.
C. She sang songs with the students.
D. She put up a poster with the words “You are seen.”
28. Why did Wen hold a lantern in her hand during the power cut?
A. To give light so that they could still read.
B. To find her way home in the dark.
C. To show it to the writer as a gift.
D. To make the classroom more beautiful.
29. What can we infer according to the last paragraph of the passage?
A. The writer will leave the next day.
B. The writer may teach there for some more time.
C. The writer will volunteer to teach students in another village.
D. The writer will live and teach in the village forever.
30. What is the best title for the passage?
A. A Small Lantern, a Big Heart B. A Difficult Trip to a Mountain Village
C. How to Plan Lessons Carefully D. An Unforgettable Lesson
【答案】26. C 27. D 28. A 29. B 30. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述作者到山村小学支教,用一张海报慢慢打开内向女孩Wen的心扉,最后彼此温暖、双向收获光亮的故事。
【26题详解】
文章第一段末尾提到“I wondered what these students would be like.”,直接说明作者紧张是因为不知道学生是什么样的。
【27题详解】
文章第三段开头提到“On my first day, I put up a poster on the wall that read ‘You are seen.’”,在墙上贴了一张海报是作者第一天在教室里做的事。
【28题详解】
文章第五段Wen说道“We can still read”,可知她拿灯笼是为了提供光亮,让大家能够继续看书。
【29题详解】
文章最后一段提到“I knew I wasn’t ready to leave just yet.”,说明作者暂时不想离开,可能会继续在这里教书
【30题详解】
全文以灯笼为线索,串联起师生间互相温暖的故事,“一盏小灯笼,一颗赤诚的心”最贴合文章主旨,是最佳标题。
C
You might think that a map is nothing more than a drawing of an area, such as a city or a country. Maps are important tools to make sure we don’t get lost and they also tell us how humans think, feel and live.
The history of maps goes back more than 5,000 years. The earliest surviving (现存的) map of the world is an earth tablet (碑) from Babylon. It shows Babylon in the center, the River Euphrates, and the oceans and mountains nearby.
The people of ancient Greece and the Romans made maps. However, it was Ptolemy, an Egyptian (埃及的) scientist, who changed them forever. He marked about 10,000 places by creating a system. It used lines called latitude and longitude which are still used today to mark areas on a map.
After the fall of the Roman Empire (帝国), maps made in Europe became more about story-telling. They were often made in monasteries (修道院) and mapmakers put what was most important to them at the center on the map.
Between the 15th and 17th centuries, new ideas and inventions were changing the world. Ships were crossing oceans and countries were building new empires, so accurate (精确的) maps appeared. Mapmakers were influenced by Ptolemy’s ideas and the invention of printing meant the monasteries were not the only places that could produce maps.
Today, the development of technology has made maps more helpful than ever. However, some experts worry that our blind trust in technology means we are losing our natural sense of direction. There have been reports of people driving into lakes, deserts or other countries by mistake after following GPS. Perhaps we’re no smarter than the people in Babylon after all.
根据材料内容,选择最佳答案。
31. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To explain how to use a map correctly. B. To describe different types of maps.
C. To introduce the importance of maps. D. To tell a story about getting lost.
32. According to the passage, which of the following shows the correct order of map development?
a. Maps made in European monasteries focused on storytelling.
b. Ptolemy created a system using latitude and longitude.
c. The earliest surviving world map was made in Babylon.
d. Accurate maps became important because of changes of the world.
e. Modern GPS technology sometimes leads people to make mistakes.
A. c-b-a-d-e B. b-c-a-e-d C. a-c-b-d-e D. c-a-b-e-d
33. What might be the big change about maps between the 15th and 17th centuries?
A. Latitude and longitude were first used. B. People depended on GPS to travel.
C. More places were correctly marked on maps. D. Mapmakers used maps to tell stories.
34. What can be learned from the last paragraph?
A. We need to train our natural sense of direction often.
B. Mapmakers in Babylon had better-developed brains.
C. Modern maps can tell how humans live and what they think.
D. People shouldn’t blindly follow GPS while they are traveling.
35. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Finding Your Way Without Help B. Mapping the World
C. Old Tablets and Modern-day GPS D. Different Drawings of Areas
【答案】31. C 32. A 33. C 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了地图的发展历史,从古代巴比伦的泥板地图到现代技术下的GPS导航,并探讨了地图在不同时期的功能演变以及现代人对技术依赖可能带来的问题。
【31题详解】
第一段先引出地图,最后点明“Maps are important tools to make sure we don’t get lost and they also tell us how humans think, feel and live.”,核心是介绍地图的重要性。
【32题详解】
按文章时间顺序梳理: 最早是c(现存最早世界地图出自巴比伦,第二段)→b(托勒密创造经纬度定位系统,第三段)→a(罗马帝国灭亡后,欧洲修道院的地图侧重讲故事,第四段)→d(15到17世纪,世界变化催生了精确地图,第五段)→e(现代GPS有时会引导人们犯错,第六段),所以顺序为c-b-a-d-e。
【33题详解】
根据第五段内容可知,航海和帝国扩张让精确地图出现,也就是更多地点被正确地标注在了地图上。
【34题详解】
最后一段点明人们盲目信任GPS技术,已经出现很多跟着GPS走错路的案例,因此本段核心在于提醒人们不要盲目跟随GPS。
【35题详解】
全文按照时间顺序,介绍了从5000年前到现代,地图绘制技术的发展历程,核心是“绘制世界地图”,因此B选项“Mapping the World”最适合作为文章标题。
D
Nobody likes to fail, even though people often say that failure is the best teacher. ____36____
Researchers at the University of Arizona, US, found that being wrong about 15 percent of the time is the key to learning new things. In school, teachers believe students learn better when they are challenged to understand ideas just a little harder than what they already know. ____37____ But if tasks are too easy, students won’t gain useful new knowledge.
However, the exact place of this best learning point is not clear. While 15 percent worked in the tests, researchers are not sure if this same number fits real classrooms. ____38____ Students, at the same time, should remember that they don’t need to feel frustrated (沮丧的) if they aren’t right all the time.
____39____ Another study from Northwestern University, US, gives an answer. You have probably heard the saying “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.” However, this study found that persistence (坚持) only works if you learn from your failures.
____40____ The faster you try again, the better your chance of success will be next time. On the other hand, the longer you wait between tries, the more likely you are to fail again in the same way.
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,使文章意思通顺、内容完整。
A. The time between tries is also very important.
B. However, some studies have shown that failure is not always bad.
C. If tasks are made too difficult, students may give up easily.
D. If failure is normal, then how do we learn from it and become successful?
E. Their hope is mainly to give useful ideas to teachers.
【答案】36. B 37. C 38. E 39. D 40. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要探讨了失败在学习过程中的作用。文章通过引用研究结果,指出适当的错误率有助于学习,讨论了任务难度的设置,并说明了如何从失败中汲取教训以及重试时间的重要性。
【36题详解】
根据文章第1段“Nobody likes to fail, even though people often say that failure is the best teacher.”以及后文提到研究发现错误是学习的关键,可知此处需要转折引出失败并非全是坏事的话题,选项B“然而,一些研究表明失败并不总是坏事。” 符合语境,承上启下。
【37题详解】
根据文章第2段“teachers believe students learn better when they are challenged to understand ideas just a little harder than what they already know.” 以及后文“But if tasks are too easy, students won't gain useful new knowledge.”,可知此处应讨论任务太难带来的负面影响,与后文“太容易”构成对比,选项C“如果任务设置得太难,学生可能会轻易放弃。”符合语境。
【38题详解】
根据文章第3段“researchers are not sure if this same number fits real classrooms.”,可知研究者的目的是服务于教学实践,选项E“他们的希望主要是给老师提供有用的想法。”中的“Their”指代研究人员,且内容符合课堂情境。
【39题详解】
根据文章第4段“Another study from Northwestern University, US, gives an answer.”,可知前文应提出一个具体问题以便后文回答,选项D“如果失败是正常的,那么我们如何从中学习并获得成功?”是疑问句且内容符合。
【40题详解】
根据文章第5段“The faster you try again, the better your chance of success Will be next time.”,可知本段主要讨论的是尝试之间的时间间隔对成功的影响,选项A“尝试之间的时间间隔也非常重要。”概括了本段主旨。
三、完形填空(15 小题,每小题1分,共15分)

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了不爱写作业的Max,完成了一篇趣味猫咪主题作文,意外走红、改变了学校作业氛围,也明白了趣味和创意可以让作业变得不一样的故事。
【41题详解】
句意:Max13岁了。他不喜欢家庭作业,尤其是写作作业。
后文提到“What can I write about?”以及老师布置写作文的任务,说明他最不擅长、最讨厌的就是写作。writing符合语境,其余 singing唱歌、dancing跳舞、drawing画画,均和下文写作文的情节无关。
【42题详解】
句意:“我整个夏天都在看猫咪视频,我能写些什么呢?” 他心想。
此处是Max内心的活动、自己脑中的想法,thought符合语境;spoke说、asked询问、answered回答,都不符合自言自语、内心纠结的状态。
【43题详解】
句意:一天,他的英语林老师布置了一个有趣的任务:“写一篇作文——为什么你的宠物应该统治世界”。
老师布置写作文,属于一项学习任务。task契合文意;lesson课程、game游戏、test测试,不符合布置写作作业的场景。
【44题详解】
句意:Max看着他的猫咪 Whiskers先生。这只猫很懒惰,它只知道吃、睡觉,什么事都不做。
后文“ate, slept, and did nothing”,是懒惰的特征,lazy符合描述;busy忙碌的、clever聪明的、friendly友好的,和后文的行为不符。
【45题详解】
句意:Max笑了起来,他有了一个主意。
固定搭配have an idea表示“有了一个想法、主意”,契合他看到猫咪之后想到作文怎么写的情节;answer答案、end结尾、order命令,均不合适。
【46题详解】
句意:它通过打盹来解决问题。
works out problems是固定搭配,表示“解决问题”;finds out查明、knows about了解、learns from向……学习,无法搭配problems表达该含义。
【47题详解】
句意:再也没有作业!这就是为什么猫咪比人类更优秀的原因。
That’s why…是固定句式,意为“这就是……的原因”,用来总结前文猫咪的种种优点;how如何、when何时、where何地,逻辑不通。
【48题详解】
句意:他附上/添加了一张照片:戴着墨镜的Whiskers先生,看起来很酷。
此处表示作文里搭配、附上一张照片,took在这里引申为附上、添加;bought购买、found找到、received收到,不符合语境。
【49题详解】
句意:Max只是想要逗老师发笑。
这篇作文风格搞怪有趣,Max的初衷就是让老师开心、笑出来。laugh符合文意;cry哭泣、worry担心、think思考,不符合轻松搞怪的氛围。
【50题详解】
句意:但是林老师非常喜欢这篇作文!她把它发布到了网上,配文“史上最佳校园作文?”
后文提到全世界的人都看到了这篇文章,说明是发布在了网络平台。online符合;home家、outside外面、there那里,无法让全世界的人看到。
【51题详解】
句意:人们制作了很多Whiskers先生的趣味图片,叫它“猫王”。有些人甚至说:“让猫咪来统治世界吧!”
此处语气递进,大家不光制作图片,还发表了夸张的言论。even用来加强递进语气;still仍然、just仅仅、only只有,没有递进效果。
【52题详解】
句意:现在,他们可以写有趣的作文了,不再是无聊的作文。
前文出现“no more boring essays,和boring形成反义对应的就是fun;long长的、hard困难的、old老旧的,不构成反义对照。
【53题详解】
句意:当Max说“这是我写的!”的时候,所有人都鼓掌了。Whiskers先生甚至得到了一顶小小的王冠。
前文大家叫猫咪“King Cat”,王者会佩戴王冠,crown呼应猫王的称呼;box盒子、bag包、book书本,不符合设定。
【54题详解】
句意:在校园派对上,林老师说:“Max 教会了我们一点:好的想法可以充满趣味,一点点幽默就可以改变世界。”
整篇作文风格搞怪、风趣幽默,humor是全文的核心亮点;money金钱、help帮助、time时间,和文章主旨无关。
【55题详解】
句意:Max 笑了。他还是依旧不喜欢家庭作业——但是现在,他知道自己可以把作业变得有趣。
呼应前文作业从无聊枯燥,变成好玩有趣的转变,也呼应老师所说的趣味和好想法。interesting符合;boring无聊的、relaxing放松的、useful有用的,不符合语境变化。
四、语篇填空(15 小题,每小题1分,共15分)
第一节
阅读短文,从方框中选择适当的词并用其正确形式填空,使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词,每词限用一次。
symbol ancient shoe provide keep teach easy because them who
Many people believe that pigs are naturally fat, lazy and dirty. But are any of those things true? They do eat a lot, but they are useful to us. We get more than just pork from pigs. We can use their skin to make ____56____. We can use their hair to make brushes. Pigs also ____57____ us with ingredients (原料) for drugs like insulin (胰岛素).
People sometimes say, “You are as stupid as a pig.” But pigs are not stupid at all. In fact, pigs are one of the smartest animals. They have a good memory and can tell different shapes apart. Many experts think pigs are ____58____ to train than dogs or cats. In France, pigs are ____59____ to find truffles (松露). With their good sense of smell, they can find truffles even faster than dogs.
When you see pigs, they are usually in dirty water or mud. That’s ____60____ pigs have no sweat glands (汗腺). On hot days, they have to cool ____61____ in water or mud. This ____62____ insects off them as well. Mud can also protect their skin from sunburn.
People often feel bad about the animal. For example, we may say that a person has “pigged out” to describe someone ____63____ has eaten a lot. If someone’s room is very messy, we might say his or her room looks like a pigsty (猪舍).
But people in ____64____ China really liked pigs. People thought the pig’s big head and ears were a ____65____ of good luck. If someone had a round face, he or she was thought to be a lucky person.
【答案】56. shoes
57. provide
58. easier 59. taught
60. because
61. themselves
62. keeps 63. who
64. ancient
65. symbol
【解析】
【导语】本文纠正了人们对猪肥胖、懒惰、愚笨、脏乱的刻板印象,介绍猪的实用价值、高智商与生活习性,还讲述了古代中国对猪的美好寓意。
【56题详解】
句意:我们可以用它们的皮做鞋子。根据“We can use their skin to make...”,猪皮可以用来制作“鞋子”。shoe“鞋子”,此处泛指,用复数shoes。
【57题详解】
句意:猪还为我们提供胰岛素等药物的原料。provide sb. with sth.是固定搭配,意为“提供某物给某人”。主语Pigs是复数,描述客观情况,使用一般现在时,故填原形provide。
【58题详解】
句意:许多专家认为猪比狗或猫更容易训练。空处位于“are”之后,使用形容词。easy“容易的”,形容词;再根据“than dogs or cats”,使用比较级easier。符合“猪比狗或猫更容易训练”的语境
【59题详解】
句意:在法国,猪被训练去寻找松露。根据“pigs are...to find truffles”,猪找松露需要“教/训练”。teach“教/训练”,动词;主语pigs与动词teach之间是被动关系,结构为be done,teach的过去分词为taught。
【60题详解】
句意:那是因为猪没有汗腺。根据“When you see pigs, they are usually in dirty water or mud. That’s...pigs have no sweat glands (汗腺).”,猪通常会泡在脏水里或者陷在泥里是“因为”猪没有汗腺。because“因为”,连词,位于is之后,引导表语从句。
【61题详解】
句意:在炎热的天气里,它们不得不在水或泥中让自己降温。主语they与宾语指代的是同一对象(猪自己),应用反身代词,them的反身代词为themselves。
【62题详解】
句意:这也能使昆虫远离它们。keep...off“使……远离”,描述客观情况,使用一般现在时,主语This为第三人称单数,所以使用keeps。
【63题详解】
句意:例如,我们可能会说一个人“pigged out”来形容一个吃得多的人。空处位于someone之后,引导定语从句,先行词someone指人,用who。
【64题详解】
句意:但是在古代中国人们真的很喜欢猪。根据“people in...China”,修饰China需要用形容词“古代的”,所以填ancient;ancient China是固定搭配,意为“古代中国”。
【65题详解】
句意:人们认为猪的大头和耳朵是好运的象征。a symbol of...是固定搭配,意为“……的象征”,此处指“好运的象征”。
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。
In the Warring States Period, there was a musician named Gongming Yi who was good at playing the guqin. One day he went to the countryside and noticed that ____66____ were several cattle (牛) eating grass nearby. Wondering ____67____ cattle could understand his music or not, Gongming Yi got closer to the cattle and played several pieces of music to attract them, ____68____ they seemed to have no interest.
After a while, Gongming Yi had another idea. He played randomly (随意地) and the music sounded like the buzz-buzz of the mosquitoes (蚊子). ____69____ his surprise, the cattle seemed to understand it. They were clearly more familiar with the sound of mosquitoes than pleasant music. It is really ____70____ waste of time to play the guqin for the cattle.
【答案】66. there
67. whether
68. but 69. To
70. a
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了成语“对牛弹琴”所对应的故事。
【66题详解】
句意:一天,他到乡下去,发现附近有几头牛在吃草。此处是there be句型,表示“(某地)有某物”,符合语境“附近有几头牛在吃草”,所以此空填there。
【67题详解】
句意:公明仪不知道牛是否能听懂他的音乐,他走近牛,弹了几首曲子来吸引它们,但它们似乎没有兴趣。“whether ... or not”是固定搭配,意为“是否”,引导宾语从句,表示“想知道牛是否能听懂他的音乐”,所以此空填whether。
【68题详解】
句意:公明仪不知道牛是否能听懂他的音乐,他走近牛,弹了几首曲子来吸引它们,但它们似乎没有兴趣。空前说公明仪弹琴吸引牛,空后说牛似乎没有兴趣,前后是转折关系,故填转折连词but。
【69题详解】
句意:令他惊讶的是,牛似乎明白了这一点。to one’s surprise是固定短语,意为“令某人惊讶的是”,句首单词首字母要大写。
【70题详解】
句意:对牛弹琴真是浪费时间。固定短语“a waste of time”意为“浪费时间”,符合语境。
五、补全对话(5小题,每小题2分,共10分)
根据下面的对话情景,在每个空白处填上一个适当的句子,使对话的意思连贯、完整。
A: Hi, David! ________71________. What’s wrong?
B: Well,I had a bad day. Mr. Li got angry with me this morning.
A: Why?
B: ________72________.
A: What a pity! Did you have a good time in the afternoon?
B: In the afternoon we had a math exam and I failed it. What a bad day!
A: ________73________. But don’t be stressed. Maybe I can help you with your math.
B: It is kind of you to say so.
A: ________74________?
B: How about this evening? I have a lot of math problems. And I want to work them out as soon as possible.
A: No problem. By the way, my watch stops running, and I want to have it repaired. ________75________?
B: I’d love to. Let’s go.
【答案】71. You look unhappy/sad today
72. I didn’t hand in my homework/I was late for class/I talked with my deskmate in his class(言之有理即可)
73. I’m sorry to hear that/It was really a terrible day
74. When shall/can/should we meet/When are you free
75. Would you like to go with me/Do you want to go with me
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了B向A倾诉自己度过了糟糕的一天:上午因为某事惹老师李老师生气,下午数学考试失利。 A先是共情B的糟糕处境,随后主动提出帮助B解决数学问题,两人约定当晚一起解决数学难题。 对话最后,A提到自己的手表停了,邀请B一起去修手表,B欣然同意。
【71题详解】
根据下文“What’s wrong?”可知,说话人 A 观察到了 David 的情绪状态不好,因此此处应填写表示“你看起来不开心/难过”的句子,如“You look unhappy/sad/upset”。
【72题详解】
上文 A 问“Why?(为什么?)”,询问李老师生气的原因。此处 B 需要给出一个合理的理由,例如“因为我迟到了”或“因为我没交作业”。填写“I didn’t hand in my homework/I was late for class/I talked with my deskmate in his class”。(言之有理即可)
【73题详解】
上文 B 提到数学考试不及格(failed it),这是一件坏事。当听到别人遭遇不幸或坏消息时,习惯用语是表示同情,即“I'm sorry to hear that”/“I’m sorry to hear that/It was really a terrible day”。
【74题详解】
根据下文 B 的回答“How about this evening?”可知,A 在此处是在询问开始辅导数学的具体时间。因此填写“When shall we start?”或“When are you free?"。
【75题详解】
上文 A 提到手表坏了想去修,下文 B 回答“I’d love to”,这是典型的接受邀请的回答。因此 A 此处是在发出邀请,常用句型为“Would you like to go with me/Do you want to go with me”。

【答案】范文(支持养宠物):
Should middle school students keep pets?
Hello, everyone!
I think middle school students should be allowed to keep pets. First, keeping a pet can teach us responsibility. We need to feed and take care of it every day, which helps us grow up. Second, pets can be our good friends. When we feel stressed by schoolwork, playing with a pet can make us relaxed and happy.
Of course, we should choose a suitable pet and never forget our studies. In short, keeping a pet can be a wonderful experience if we do it wisely.
Thanks for listening!
范文(反对养宠物):
Should middle school students keep pets?
Hello, everyone!
I don’t think middle school students should keep pets. First, we are too busy with our lessons and exams. Taking care of a pet will take a lot of time, which may influence our studies. Second, some pets may make the house dirty or even spread diseases. It’s not easy to keep them clean and healthy.
We can show our love for animals in other ways, like volunteering at animal shelters. In short, it’s better for us to focus on our schoolwork now.

A
Slides (滑梯) are simple but always fun. All you need to do is to climb up to the top and slide down. But do you know that there is science behind it?
Newton said what goes up must come down. He talked about gravity (重力). Slides work because of gravity. But that is not all.
❶You climb up the slide and sit down.
You are ready to go. Are you sliding down? No, not yet. Things stay still unless something makes them ▲ . It is Newton’s First Law. So you have to give yourself a push to start the journey down.
❷Now you are sliding down.
Do you feel you are slowing down a little? When two things rub (摩擦) against each other, they cause friction (摩擦力). Without friction, you will slide down faster and faster to the bottom. That is more interesting, but more dangerous.
❸At the bottom of the slide, you come to a full stop.
Your feet touch the ground and add more friction. Newton’s First Law also says moving things keep moving unless something makes them stop. So if you do not use your feet, you’ll fly off the slide.
根据材料内容,选择最佳答案。
21. In order to slide down, what do you need to do after you climb up to the top?
A. Learn about gravity. B. Sit down and look forward.
C. Give yourself a push. D. Use your feet to make friction.
22. Which word can be put in “ ▲ ”?
A. stop B. end C. move D. wait
23. Which picture explains why you slow down a little when sliding down?
A. B. C. D.
24. What can we know from Newton’s First Law mentioned in the text?
A. Moving things won’t stop on their own.
B. Gravity is the only force that acts on a sliding person.
C. Friction is necessary to start moving down a slide.
D. You would slide down faster if there were no gravity on the earth.
25. Where can you probably read the text?
A. In a storybook. B. In a guidebook. C. In a school poster. D. In a science book.
B
Light rain kept falling as I got to the mountain village. With a heavy bag on my back, I felt excited about teaching at a small school here, but also a little nervous. I wondered what these students would be like.
The school had only 18 students. Most were quiet in class, though they ran and laughed happily during break. One girl, Wen, always sat alone in the corner, saying almost nothing.
On my first day, I put up a poster on the wall that read “You are seen.” Some students smiled shyly, and some spoke softly. “That’s why I’m here,” I told them. But Wen didn’t look up. She just kept drawing small circles on her desk with her finger.
Days went by fast. I planned my lessons carefully, and the children were kind to me. Still, I felt my work didn’t make much difference. I wasn’t sure if I was doing anything meaningful.
One night, a strong storm cut off the power, and the classroom went dark. Everyone felt scared. Then a soft light appeared. It was Wen, holding a lantern in her hand. “We can still read,” she said in a quiet voice. It was the first time I had heard her speak.
The next day, she sat closer to her classmates. In the days after, she started to talk more. On my last day, she walked up and gave me the lantern. “So you will always have some light,” she said with a gentle smile. I came here to give light to others, but I found that light was quietly given back to me.
Volunteering isn’t always big or loud. Sometimes, it’s a small lantern, shared between two people, and shining in both directions. As I held the lantern in my hand, I knew I wasn’t ready to leave just yet.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
26. Why did the writer feel a little nervous when arriving at the village?
A. Because the weather was too bad.
B. Because the school was too small.
C. Because she didn’t know what the students would be like.
D. Because she had a heavy bag on her back.
27. What did the writer do on her first day in the classroom?
A. She drew circles on the desk with her finger.
B. She gave each student a small lantern.
C. She sang songs with the students.
D. She put up a poster with the words “You are seen.”
28. Why did Wen hold a lantern in her hand during the power cut?
A. To give light so that they could still read.
B. To find her way home in the dark.
C. To show it to the writer as a gift.
D. To make the classroom more beautiful.
29. What can we infer according to the last paragraph of the passage?
A. The writer will leave the next day.
B. The writer may teach there for some more time.
C. The writer will volunteer to teach students in another village.
D. The writer will live and teach in the village forever.
30. What is the best title for the passage?
A. A Small Lantern, a Big Heart B. A Difficult Trip to a Mountain Village
C. How to Plan Lessons Carefully D. An Unforgettable Lesson
C
You might think that a map is nothing more than a drawing of an area, such as a city or a country. Maps are important tools to make sure we don’t get lost and they also tell us how humans think, feel and live.
The history of maps goes back more than 5,000 years. The earliest surviving (现存的) map of the world is an earth tablet (碑) from Babylon. It shows Babylon in the center, the River Euphrates, and the oceans and mountains nearby.
The people of ancient Greece and the Romans made maps. However, it was Ptolemy, an Egyptian (埃及的) scientist, who changed them forever. He marked about 10,000 places by creating a system. It used lines called latitude and longitude which are still used today to mark areas on a map.
After the fall of the Roman Empire (帝国), maps made in Europe became more about story-telling. They were often made in monasteries (修道院) and mapmakers put what was most important to them at the center on the map.
Between the 15th and 17th centuries, new ideas and inventions were changing the world. Ships were crossing oceans and countries were building new empires, so accurate (精确的) maps appeared. Mapmakers were influenced by Ptolemy’s ideas and the invention of printing meant the monasteries were not the only places that could produce maps.
Today, the development of technology has made maps more helpful than ever. However, some experts worry that our blind trust in technology means we are losing our natural sense of direction. There have been reports of people driving into lakes, deserts or other countries by mistake after following GPS. Perhaps we’re no smarter than the people in Babylon after all.

Nobody likes to fail, even though people often say that failure is the best teacher. ____36____
Researchers at the University of Arizona, US, found that being wrong about 15 percent of the time is the key to learning new things. In school, teachers believe students learn better when they are challenged to understand ideas just a little harder than what they already know. ____37____ But if tasks are too easy, students won’t gain useful new knowledge.
However, the exact place of this best learning point is not clear. While 15 percent worked in the tests, researchers are not sure if this same number fits real classrooms. ____38____ Students, at the same time, should remember that they don’t need to feel frustrated (沮丧的) if they aren’t right all the time.
____39____ Another study from Northwestern University, US, gives an answer. You have probably heard the saying “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.” However, this study found that persistence (坚持) only works if you learn from your failures.
____40____ The faster you try again, the better your chance of success will be next time. On the other hand, the longer you wait between tries, the more likely you are to fail again in the same way.
