Here is an experiment to see how ants can organize some clever teamwork. 1. First, you need some ants. You may have to wait until summer to find them on the ground. 2. When you have found an ant, put a thin slice of fruit in front of it. It may eat some of it or carry bits away. 3. Check the fruit after an hour. Do other ants come to it? If so, what are they doing? 4. When there are lots of ants, move the fruit to a new place. What will the ants do? What’s going on? You can see one of the best examples of animal team work by watching ants. If one ant finds food, it will lead others there to eat it, too. Then they follow each other by making a long line of marks to take the food back to their home. If you move the fruit, the ants will still find it. But, instead of making a new direct route (路线) to the food, they will follow each other through their old route. 21. Which is the correct order to do this experiment? a. Move the fruit to a new place. b. Find an ant. c. Check the fruit an hour later. d. Put a thin slice of fruit in front of the ant. A. b-d-a-c B. b-d-c-a C. d-b-c-a D. b-c-a-d 22. What will happen if one ant finds food? A. The ant will eat all the food. B. The ant will watch other ants. C. The ant will lead others to the food. D. The ant will wait until others come. 23. What will the ants do if you move the fruit? A. They will go back to their home. B. They will still follow their old route. C. They will find a new way quickly. D. They will stop walking and stay there. 24. What is the purpose of this experiment? A. To find out what food ants like best. B. To count how many ants live together. C. To study how ants build their homes. D. To see how ants work together to get food. 25. What’s the theme of the text? A. Nature. B. Culture. C. Health. D. Art. 【答案】21. B 22. C 23. B 24. D 25. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了一个观察蚂蚁如何通过团队合作搬运食物的实验步骤和原理。 【21题详解】 实验步骤顺序为：第一步“When you have found an ant”（b）→第二步“put a thin slice of fruit in front of it”（d）→第三步“Check the fruit after an hour”（c）→第四步“move the fruit to a new place”（a），因此b-d-c-a。 【22题详解】 最后一段指出：“If one ant finds food, it will lead others there to eat it, too.”，说明找到食物的蚂蚁会带领其他蚂蚁去食物处。 【23题详解】 最后一段指出：“they will follow each other through their old route.”，说明移动水果后，蚂蚁仍会沿着旧路线走。 【24题详解】 实验通过观察蚂蚁发现食物后带领其他蚂蚁前往、形成路线搬运食物、移动食物后仍沿旧路线行走等过程，目的是研究蚂蚁如何团队合作获取食物。 【25题详解】 本文观察蚂蚁行为，属于自然类内容。 B Growing up is a process of change and growth. It is not just about getting older, but also about becoming a better person. During our growth, we will experience many changes, such as physical changes, emotional changes and mental changes. Physical changes are the clearest. As we grow up, our bodies will become stronger and more mature. For example, boys will have deeper voices and girls will have different body shapes. These changes are normal and are part of growing up. Emotional changes are also common during growth. We may feel happy, sad, excited or worried more easily. We may start to care more about what others think of us. ________ These emotions are normal, and we should learn to deal with them properly. Mental changes are important too. We will become more able to do things by ourselves and start to think more deeply about life and the world around us. We will learn to make our own decisions and be responsible for our actions. This helps us grow into mature and responsible adults. Growing up can be challenging, but it is also a wonderful journey. It allows us to discover who we are and what we want to be. By accepting the changes and facing the challenges bravely, we can grow into the best ourselves. 26. Which of the following is NOT a type of change mentioned in Paragraph 1? A. Social changes. B. Emotional changes. C. Mental changes. D. Physical changes. 27. What does the underlined word “mature” mean in Paragraph 2? A. Childish. B. Grown-up. C. Weak. D. Young. 28. Which of the following can be put in “________” in Paragraph 3? A. We may start to stay up late at night. B. We may have more fights with our parents. C. We may learn to play a new instrument. D. We may become much taller and stronger. 29. Which of the following pictures is related to mental changes? A. B. C. D. 30. What is the best title for this passage? A. Ways to Make Good Friends B. Physical Changes in Teens C. Fights with Parents at Home D. The Changes of Growing Up 【答案】26. A 27. B 28. B 29. C 30. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍成长过程包含身体、情绪、心智三类变化，分别阐述各类变化的具体表现，点明成长虽有挑战但也是美好的历程。 【26题详解】 原文第一段“such as physical changes, emotional changes and mental changes”，明确提到成长中的变化包括身体变化、情绪变化、心智变化，没有提到社会变化。 【27题详解】 第二段“As we grow up, our bodies will become stronger and more mature.”，划线词mature处于描述身体成长的语境中，后文举例变声、身材改变都是成长成熟的表现，mature意思是“成熟的”，和grown-up同义。 【28题详解】 第三段主题是成长中的情绪变化，B选项“和父母争吵”属于情绪相关表现。 【29题详解】 第四段说明心智变化指成长中变得更独立，开始深度思考生活与世界。图1量身高属于身体变化，图2和父母争吵属于情绪变化，图3男孩独自思考学习，符合心智变化的描述，图4踢足球是体育运动，因此选C。 【30题详解】 根据文章第一段“Growing up is a process of change and growth...such as physical changes, emotional changes and mental changes.”及结合文章内容可知，全文围绕成长里身体、情绪、心智三类变化展开，D选项“The Changes of Growing Up”最能概括全文主旨。 C 阅读填空。根据短文内容，完成图表中所缺信息(每题不超过三个单词)。 Every year, wildfires burn large areas of forest. Many houses are destroyed and thousands of people die. To fight these fires, there are special heroes called smoke jumpers. Smoke jumpers are a special type of firefighter. Instead of driving fire trucks, they jump from planes. They land in faraway places that cars or people cannot reach easily, such as the middle of a mountain or a deep forest. When they arrive at the fire, their main goal is to stop the fire from spreading. They use basic tools to clear dry grass and wood. They also carry water, but only a little. Their job is to control the fire until more firefighters arrive. To be a smoke jumper, one must be strong and healthy. The most important thing is to have the right weight and height. In the United States, for example, smoke jumpers must weigh between 54 and 91 kilograms. This makes sure they don’t get hurt or carried away by the wind when they land. The job is dangerous and the working hours are long. However, smoke jumpers love their work. They enjoy the excitement of jumping from planes and living in nature. As the 28-year-old Russian smoke jumper Alexi Tishin says, “This is the best job for the strong and brave.” 31. ________ 32. ________ 33. ________ 34. ________ 35. ________ 【答案】31. firefighter 32. a deep forest 33. spreading 34. 91 kilograms 35. excitement 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一种特殊的消防员——空降消防员（smoke jumpers）的行动方式、工作职责、任职要求以及他们对这份工作的热爱。 【31题详解】 文章第二段“Smoke jumpers are a special type of firefighter.”，因此空降消防员是一种特殊的消防员，应填firefighter。 【32题详解】 文章第二段“They land in faraway places that cars or people cannot reach easily, such as the middle of a mountain or a deep forest.”，因此他们会降落在半山腰或茂密的森林里，应填a deep forest。 【33题详解】 文章第三段“When they arrive at the fire, their main goal is to stop the fire from spreading.”，说明他们的工作职责是阻止火势蔓延，所以第三空应填spreading。 【34题详解】 文章第四段“In the United States, for example, smoke jumpers must weigh between 54 and 91 kilograms.”，说明空降消防员的体重必须在54到91千克之间，因此第四空应填91 kilograms。 【35题详解】 文章第五段“They enjoy the excitement of jumping from planes and living in nature.”，因此他们享受从飞机上跳下和在自然中生活的刺激，应填excitement。 四、语言运用(本大题分为 A、B两部分，共15分) A．短文填空(本题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 请从方框内选择适当的词，并根据需要用其正确形式填空，使文章完整连贯。注意每空一词，每词仅用一次，有两词为多余选项。请将答案写在答题卡对应题目的答题位置上。 for difficult they quick different on job worker teach require special touch My grandpa had a very simple job when he was young.

Here is an experiment to see how ants can organize some clever teamwork. 1. First, you need some ants. You may have to wait until summer to find them on the ground. 2. When you have found an ant, put a thin slice of fruit in front of it. It may eat some of it or carry bits away. 3. Check the fruit after an hour. Do other ants come to it? If so, what are they doing? 4. When there are lots of ants, move the fruit to a new place. What will the ants do? What’s going on?

Move the fruit to a new place. b. Find an ant. c. Check the fruit an hour later. d. Put a thin slice of fruit in front of the ant. A. b-d-a-c B. b-d-c-a C. d-b-c-a D. b-c-a-d 22.

What will the ants do if you move the fruit? A. They will go back to their home. B. They will still follow their old route. C. They will find a new way quickly. D. They will stop walking and stay there. 24. What is the purpose of this experiment? A. To find out what food ants like best. B. To count how many ants live together. C. To study how ants build their homes. D. To see how ants work together to get food. 25. What’s the theme of the text? A. Nature. B. Culture. C. Health. D. Art.

Many houses are destroyed and thousands of people die. To fight these fires, there are special heroes called smoke jumpers. Smoke jumpers are a special type of firefighter. Instead of driving fire trucks, they jump from planes. They land in faraway places that cars or people cannot reach easily, such as the middle of a mountain or a deep forest. When they arrive at the fire, their main goal is to stop the fire from spreading. They use basic tools to clear dry grass and wood. They also carry water, but only a little. Their job is to control the fire until more firefighters arrive. To be a smoke jumper, one must be strong and healthy. The most important thing is to have the right weight and height. In the United States, for example, smoke jumpers must weigh between 54 and 91 kilograms. This makes sure they don’t get hurt or carried away by the wind when they land. The job is dangerous and the working hours are long. However, smoke jumpers love their work. They enjoy the excitement of jumping from planes and living in nature. As the 28-year-old Russian smoke jumper Alexi Tishin says, “This is the best job for the strong and brave.” 31. ________ 32. ________ 33. ________ 34. ________ 35. ________ 四、语言运用(本大题分为 A、B两部分，共15分) A．短文填空(本题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 请从方框内选择适当的词，并根据需要用其正确形式填空，使文章完整连贯。注意每空一词，每词仅用一次，有两词为多余选项。请将答案写在答题卡对应题目的答题位置上。 for difficult they quick different on job worker teach require special touch My grandpa had a very simple job when he was young.
