(Two students are talking on their way home from school.)
A: Hi, Mike. You look upset. 1 .
B: I saw a traffic accident on my way to school this morning. A middle school student was hit by a car at the crosswalk.
A: 2 . Was he badly hurt?
B: Luckily, he wasn’t seriously hurt. But his leg was bleeding and he was taken to the hospital right away.
A: That’s terrible. 3 .
B: The boy was riding his bike and listening to music on his mobile phone. He didn’t notice the red light.The driver tried to stop, but it was too late.
A: Oh, that’s really dangerous. 4 .
B: We should always pay attention to the traffic lights. Also, never use mobile phones while riding or walking on the street.
A: I agree. And we’d better wear bright-colored clothes so that drivers can see us easily, especially on rainy days.
B: 5 . By the way, we should cross at the zebra crossing. It’s much safer.
A: Sure. Safety always comes first.
A.I am sorry to hear that!
B.What should we do to stay safe on the road?
C.How did the accident happen?
D.That’s a good idea.
E.You’re right. Following traffic rules is very important for our safety.
F.What’s the matter with you?
【答案】1.F 2.A 3.C 4.B 5.D
【导语】本文主要讲述了两名学生在放学路上,由一起交通事故展开讨论、分享道路安全注意事项的对话。
【详解】1.根据上文A说“You look upset”(你看起来心烦意乱),可知A察觉到B情绪不对,接下来应该询问发生了什么事。选项F“What's the matter with you?”(你怎么了?)符合语境。
2.根据上文B提到目睹了一起交通事故(I saw a traffic accident),作为朋友,A此时应表示同情或难过。选项A“I am sorry to hear that!”(听到这个消息我很难过!)是听到坏消息时的标准回应。
3.根据下文B的回答“The boy was riding his bike and listening to music...”(那个男孩正在骑车听音乐……),这是在解释事故发生的经过和原因。因此,此处A应该是在询问事故是如何发生的。选项C“How did the accident happen?”(事故是怎么发生的?)符合逻辑。
4.根据下文B的回答“We should always pay attention to the traffic lights...”(我们应该始终注意红绿灯……),这是在提供安全建议。因此,此处A应该是在询问为了安全应该怎么做。选项B“What should we do to stay safe on the road?”(我们在路上应该怎么做才能保持安全?)与下文呼应。
5.根据上文A提出的建议“we’d better wear bright-colored clothes”(我们最好穿颜色鲜艳的衣服),B此处应对该建议表示赞同。选项D“That’s a good idea.”(那是个好主意。)是对建议的常用肯定回答。选项E虽然也表示赞同,但提到的“遵守交通规则”与“穿鲜艳衣服”这一具体建议不完全对应(穿鲜艳衣服属于安全建议而非严格交通规则),故D更准确。
二、语法选择(本大题共10小题,每小题1分,共10分)
请通读下面短文,掌握其大意,根据语法和上下文连贯的要求,从每小题所给的三个选项中选出一个最佳答案,并在答题卡上将对应选项涂黑。
I was having trouble getting on with my mum. I was angry 6 her. I didn’t want to sit down and communicate with her peacefully 7 she didn’t understand me. And she thought our communication was an argument. As a result, I got 8 headache. I even couldn’t stand her voice. She thought I was mean (刻薄的) to her. But I just wanted to stay alone. While I was reading books on my bed, she came into my room and 9 at me about my bed. I didn’t like sitting by her. I didn’t like eating at the same table with her, either.
She wasn’t happy 10 to me when I said we had a problem with our relations. If I said she shouted too much, she would speak in a much 11 voice. I felt bored 12 noisy she was! I just wanted a quiet life. I didn’t know how other 13 got on with their mothers. I never got on well with 14 , even when I was little. I knew our relations had become 15 , so I asked my father to help me. I hoped he could improve the relations between my mother and me.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了作者因与母亲关系紧张、沟通困难而感到烦恼,甚至头痛,最终希望父亲能帮助改善母子关系的故事。
【详解】6.句意:我对她很生气。
句中“was angry…her”提示此处考查:be angry with sb“对某人生气”,所以此处介词要用with。
7.句意:我不想和平沟通,因为她不理解我。
后一句“she didn’t understand me.”是前一句“I didn’t want to sit down and communicate with her peacefully”的原因,此处应用because引导原因状语从句,意为“因为”符合语境。
8.句意:结果,我头痛了。
句中“got…headache”提示,此处考查:get a headache“头痛”,固定搭配。
9.句意:她走进房间冲我大喊。
句中“came”和语境提示,全文时态为一般过去时,此处应用shout的过去式shouted作谓语。
10.句意:当我说我们的关系有问题时,她不乐意听我说。
“She wasn’t happy…to me”提示,此处考查:be happy to do sth“乐于做某事”,固定搭配,所以此处要用不定式to listen作结果状语。
11.句意:她会用更大的声音说话。
空格前“much”后要接比较级,此处应填入louder,意为“更大的”,指用更大的声音说话。
12.句意:她是多么吵闹啊!
“I felt bored…noisy she was!”提示,该句是感叹句,空格后“noisy”是形容词,所以此处应用how修饰形容词。
13.句意:其他孩子如何与母亲相处。
空格前“other”后接可数名词复数,所以此处应填入children,泛指其他孩子。
14.句意:我从未与我的母亲相处得好。
前一句“I didn’t know how other…got on with their mothers.”和“I never got on well with…”提示,此处应用mine指代“my mother”,表达我从未与我的母亲相处得好。
15.句意:我知道我们的关系变得困难了。
空格前“become”是系动词,后接形容词作表语,difficult“困难的”,形容词。
三、完形填空(本大题共10小题,每小题1分,共10分)
请通读下面短文,掌握其大意,从每小题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案,并在答题卡上将对应选项涂黑。
Have you ever heard of the Dead Sea? It’s one of the world’s most amazing places. It isn’t a sea, but a large lake. It sits in the Jordan Valley and is famous for being the lowest point on Earth.
The water in the Dead Sea is very salty—almost ten times 16 than regular ocean water. Because of this, fish or plants cannot live in it. That’s 17 people call it the “Dead” Sea. But don’t let the name scare you! The water is so buoyant (有浮力的) that you can float on it 18 . It’s a funny feeling, like lying on an air bed!
Many people visit the Dead Sea every year 19 its special mud (泥浆). The mud is rich in minerals and is said to be good for 20 skin. Visitors often cover themselves in the dark mud and then float in the water. It’s a popular 21 to relax.
However, the Dead Sea is 22 a problem. It is shrinking (缩小)! The water level is going down by about one meter per year. Scientists say we need to 23 water from other places to save it. If we don’t take action, this natural wonder might one day 24 .
The Dead Sea teaches us an important lesson: nature is powerful and beautiful, but also 25 . We should try our best to protect such wonders for our future.

【导语】本文介绍死海的特点与价值,指出其面临缩小危机,呼吁保护自然奇观,强调自然既强大又脆弱,人类应尽力守护未来。
【详解】16.句意:死海的水非常咸——几乎比普通海水咸十倍。
前文提到“The water in the Dead Sea is very salty”,此处用倍数对比说明它比普通海水咸得多。salty“咸的”,其比较级是saltier,符合语境。
17.句意:那就是为什么人们称它为“死海”。
前文提到“鱼或植物无法在其中生存”,这是人们称它为“死海”的原因。“That’s why...”是固定句型,意为“这就是……的原因”。
18.句意:水的浮力非常大,你可以轻松地浮在水面上。
根据前文“水的浮力很大”,以及后文“像躺在气垫床上”的描述,可知浮在水面上是很轻松的。easily“轻松地、容易地”符合语境。
19.句意:每年很多人因为其特殊泥浆游览死海。
后文提到泥浆富含矿物质,对皮肤有益,这是人们来参观的原因。because of“因为、由于”用于引出原因,后接名词或名词短语,符合语境。
20.句意:泥浆富含矿物质,据说对我们的皮肤有益。
根据语境泛指人类包括读者,our体现普遍性。his等指代特定对象,范围过窄。
21.句意:这是一种受欢迎的放松方式。
前文提到游客们会涂满泥浆、在水中漂浮,这是一种放松的方式。way“方式、方法”符合语境,a popular way to relax意为“一种受欢迎的放松方式”。
22.句意:然而,死海正面临一个问题。
后文提到“It is shrinking”,说明死海面临着问题。face a problem是固定搭配,意为“面临问题”,此处用现在进行时facing。
23.句意:科学家说我们需要从其他地方引入水来拯救它。
前文提到死海水位每年下降约1米,因此需要从其他地方引入水源来拯救它。bring water from other places意为“从其他地方引水”,符合语境。
24.句意:如果我们不采取行动,这个自然奇观有一天可能会消失。
前文提到死海正在缩小,如果不采取措施,它最终会消失。disappear“消失”符合语境。
25.句意:死海给我们上了重要的一课:自然是强大而美丽的,但也是脆弱的。
前文提到死海正面临消失的危机,说明自然也有脆弱的一面。weak“脆弱的、易受破坏的”符合语境,与前文的powerful and beautiful形成对比。

B
Located in Africa, the Sahara Desert spreads across 30 per cent of the continent. This vast desert, also known as “the great desert” in Arabic, is about 9 million square kilometers in size. It is also at least 4.6 million years old. This means that it is one of the oldest places in the world.
All deserts are dry, and the Sahara is both dry and hot. It is the largest hot desert in the world. We may think that all deserts are hot, but in fact some deserts are very cold! Many scientists believe that Antarctica, for example, is a type of cold desert. Most of the Sahara is rocky ground. But there are also places with grass, lakes, mountains, and even sand seas. A sand sea is just what it sounds like — it looks like a sea of sand! When the wind blows, the sand looks like waves.
Life in the Sahara is difficult. About two million people live in the Sahara. They usually move from place to place. There is water in a few parts of the Sahara, and some people live in these places all year round.
Not many animals can live in a place with such a dry and hot climate. They must adapt to survive. Camels, for example, go for a long time without drinking water. When they do find water, they can drink more than 100 litres of it in 13 minutes! Fennec foxes live in the desert too. They have large ears to help their bodies stay cool.
Today, the world’s largest hot desert is getting even bigger. It is now about 10 per cent larger than what it was about a century ago. But why is it growing? Some scientists believe that part of the reason is climate change. As temperatures rise, summers in Africa grow hotter and less rain falls. Water bodies get smaller and the ground gets drier and drier. If we do not take effective measures, the desert will keep growing!
31.What does the word “vast” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?
A.Very old. B.Very large. C.Very dry. D.Very hot.
32.How old is the Sahara Desert?
A.It is also at least 30 million years old.
B.It is also at least 9 million years old.
C.It is also at least 4.6 million years old.
D.It is also at least 2 million years old.
33.According to the passage, which animals can live in the Sahara Desert?
A.Camels and dogs. B.Fennec foxes and dogs.
C.Camels and fennec foxes. D.Fennec foxes and horses
34.Which of the following statement is right from the passage?
A.All deserts in the world are dry and hot, just like the Sahara.
B.It is impossible for people to live in the Sahara Desert at all.
C.The expansion of the Sahara Desert is completely caused by human activities.
D.Some animals in the Sahara Desert have special features to deal with the hot weather.
35.Where is this passage most probably from?
A.travel guide B.picture book C.notice D.storybook
【答案】31.B 32.C 33.C 34.D 35.A
【导语】本文主要介绍了撒哈拉沙漠基本概况,以及它的扩张及原因。
【详解】31.根据第一段中“This vast desert... is about 9 million square kilometres in size.”可知,vast用来形容沙漠的面积约为900万平方公里,说明其非常巨大,因此意为“Very large”。
32.根据第一段最后一句“It is also at least 4.6 million years old.”可知,撒哈拉沙漠至少有460万年的历史,直接对应选项C。
33.根据第四段内容“Camels, for example... Fennec foxes live in the desert too.”可知,文中明确列举了骆驼(camels)和耳廓狐(fennec foxes)生活在撒哈拉沙漠。
34.第四段“Camels, for example, go for a long time without drinking water. When they do find water, they can drink more than 100 litres of it in 13 minutes! Fennec foxes live in the desert too. They have large ears to help their bodies stay cool.”提到动物有适应热天气的能力,如耳廓狐的大耳朵帮助身体保持凉爽。D选项正确。
35.文章详细介绍了撒哈拉沙漠的地理位置、面积、气候、地貌、生物及现状,旨在向读者全面介绍这一特定地点,符合旅游指南(travel guide)中介绍目的地背景信息的特征。

Do you often say “sorry” to others? Many people think saying “sorry” is the 41 way to apologize. But in Canada, it’s different. Canadians think that “sorry” is the most common word to use in 42 country. Why do Canadians apologize so much, even when they don’t need to? That’s 43 saying “sorry” is a part of Canadian culture. It shows that they’re polite and they’re trying to be nice. Also, many foreigners 44 that Canada is a polite country, so Canadians may try to protect that idea. For many Canadians, they apologize even 45 thinking. For example, a Canadian will probably say “sorry” first when someone hurts him by accident in the street! Why? Because in Canadians’ opinion, it’s often 46 to say “sorry” than to shout at someone or to have a fight. So, whatever happens, saying “sorry” is one of the greatest 47 to stay out of trouble. We should also realize that when Canadians say “sorry”, that doesn’t always mean they are 48 sorry. Sometimes, apologizing just means they know some bad things happened and 49 sad to hear about the bad news, not meaning they think they made mistakes. Is Canadian 50 interesting? How do you use “I’m sorry” in your country? Please tell us. We are happy to know about it!
【答案】
41.hardest 42.their 43.because 44.agree 45.without 46.easier 47.ways 48.really 49.feel 50.culture
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了加拿大文化中“频繁说 sorry”的特殊社交现象。
41.句意:很多人认为说“对不起”是道歉最难的方式。下文表示加拿大“频繁说sorry” ,此处用“很多人认为道歉是最困难的”的反差形成对比,定冠词the之后,需填形容词最高级hardest。
42.句意:加拿大人认为“对不起”是他们国家最常用的词。设空处修饰名词country,需填形容词性物主代词指在他们的国家,用their。
43.句意:那是因为说“对不起”是加拿大文化的一部分。前文用Why提问原因,此处用because引导表语从句,构成固定句型That’s because...“那是因为……”。
44.句意:此外,很多外国人都认同加拿大是一个礼貌的国家,因此加拿大人会努力维护这一形象。“Canadians may try to protect that idea”表明很多外国人都认同加拿大是一个礼貌的国家。设空处为谓语动词,主语many foreigners为复数,句子为一般现在时,agree“认同、同意”符合语境。
45.句意:对很多加拿大人来说,他们甚至不假思索就会道歉。设空处需填介词,without thinking是固定搭配,意为“不假思索、毫不犹豫”,完美匹配后文“被撞反而先道歉”的例子。
46.句意:因为在加拿大人看来,说“对不起”往往比对某人大喊大叫或打架要容易得多。设空处位于 is之后,且有than提示比较级,需填形容词比较级。easy“容易的”其比较级为easier,解释了加拿大人频繁道歉的核心动机。
47.句意:所以,无论发生什么事,说“对不起”是避免麻烦的最好方式之一。此处是指说“sorry”是避免麻烦的最好方法之一,固定结构“one of + the + 形容词最高级 + 可数名词复数”,意为“最……之一”。way“方式”的复数形式为ways,符合语法结构。
48.句意:我们也应该意识到,当加拿大人说“对不起”时,这并不总是意味着他们真的感到抱歉。根据“not meaning they think they make mistakes”可知,加拿大人说“sorry”时,并不总是意味着他们真的感到抱歉。设空处修饰形容词sorry,需填副词really“真正地、确实地”。
49.句意:有时候,道歉只是意味着他们知道发生了不好的事,听到坏消息感到难过,而不是意味着他们认为自己犯了错。“hear about the bad news”表明,听到坏消息会感到难过。feel sad意为 “感到难过”,设空处与know并列,作means的宾语从句的谓语,主语为they,需填动词原形。
50.句意:加拿大文化有趣吗?设空处位于形容词Canadian之后,需填名词。结合全文围绕加拿大的“道歉文化”展开,culture“文化”符合语境。

One night, when Ma Liang was asleep, he had a dream. In his dream, he met an old man. The old man gave him a magic brush, and said to him, “I give you a magic brush. You can use it to help the poor in your village.”
The next morning, when he woke up, he found a real brush in his hands. Ma Liang felt very excited. He went to the village and decided to help the villagers.

I would like to tell you one of my favorite fables.
I first heard it from my mom when I was a kid. One hot day, a thirsty crow looked everywhere for water. Finally, he saw a bottle with water in it. But the water was too low to reach. He picked up small stones and dropped them into the bottle one by one. Slowly, the water level rose, and he was able to drink the water at last.

Located in Africa, the Sahara Desert spreads across 30 per cent of the continent. This vast desert, also known as “the great desert” in Arabic, is about 9 million square kilometers in size. It is also at least 4.6 million years old. This means that it is one of the oldest places in the world.
All deserts are dry, and the Sahara is both dry and hot. It is the largest hot desert in the world. We may think that all deserts are hot, but in fact some deserts are very cold! Many scientists believe that Antarctica, for example, is a type of cold desert. Most of the Sahara is rocky ground. But there are also places with grass, lakes, mountains, and even sand seas. A sand sea is just what it sounds like — it looks like a sea of sand! When the wind blows, the sand looks like waves.
Life in the Sahara is difficult. About two million people live in the Sahara. They usually move from place to place. There is water in a few parts of the Sahara, and some people live in these places all year round.
Not many animals can live in a place with such a dry and hot climate. They must adapt to survive. Camels, for example, go for a long time without drinking water. When they do find water, they can drink more than 100 litres of it in 13 minutes! Fennec foxes live in the desert too. They have large ears to help their bodies stay cool.
Today, the world’s largest hot desert is getting even bigger. It is now about 10 per cent larger than what it was about a century ago. But why is it growing? Some scientists believe that part of the reason is climate change. As temperatures rise, summers in Africa grow hotter and less rain falls. Water bodies get smaller and the ground gets drier and drier. If we do not take effective measures, the desert will keep growing!
31.What does the word “vast” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?
A.Very old. B.Very large. C.Very dry. D.Very hot.
32.How old is the Sahara Desert?
A.It is also at least 30 million years old.
B.It is also at least 9 million years old.
C.It is also at least 4.6 million years old.
D.It is also at least 2 million years old.
33.According to the passage, which animals can live in the Sahara Desert?
A.Camels and dogs. B.Fennec foxes and dogs.
C.Camels and fennec foxes. D.Fennec foxes and horses
34.Which of the following statement is right from the passage?
A.All deserts in the world are dry and hot, just like the Sahara.
B.It is impossible for people to live in the Sahara Desert at all.
C.The expansion of the Sahara Desert is completely caused by human activities.
D.Some animals in the Sahara Desert have special features to deal with the hot weather.
35.Where is this passage most probably from?
A.travel guide B.picture book
C.notice D.storybook

Do you often say “sorry” to others? Many people think saying “sorry” is the 41 way to apologize. But in Canada, it’s different. Canadians think that “sorry” is the most common word to use in 42 country. Why do Canadians apologize so much, even when they don’t need to? That’s 43 saying “sorry” is a part of Canadian culture. It shows that they’re polite and they’re trying to be nice. Also, many foreigners 44 that Canada is a polite country, so Canadians may try to protect that idea. For many Canadians, they apologize even 45 thinking. For example, a Canadian will probably say “sorry” first when someone hurts him by accident in the street! Why? Because in Canadians’ opinion, it’s often 46 to say “sorry” than to shout at someone or to have a fight. So, whatever happens, saying “sorry” is one of the greatest 47 to stay out of trouble. We should also realize that when Canadians say “sorry”, that doesn’t always mean they are 48 sorry. Sometimes, apologizing just means they know some bad things happened and 49 sad to hear about the bad news, not meaning they think they made mistakes. Is Canadian 50 interesting? How do you use “I’m sorry” in your country? Please tell us. We are happy to know about it!
