When was it that something made you stop, take a good look and get lost in thought? For me, it was last Sunday. My friend invited me to a European art exhibition in Shanghai.
To be honest, I’m not interested in art paintings at all. I know very little about European art. So, at first, I refused to go to the exhibition. But finally I became excited to see the artworks of the famous artists like Monet(莫奈) and Van Gogh(梵高). The exhibition included 52 artworks. It was really a different experience to see them face to face.
My friend was happy to see so many different painting styles in one place. The visit made her remember the trip to Paris several years ago. She told me that art could be found in every corner of the city.
Most of the visitors, I thought, had limited(有限的) knowledge about art, too. They were just busy taking pictures, and then showed everyone on WeChat that they had been there. Under the influence of my friend, who is an art lover, I began to look at the paintings carefully. One painting that moved me most was Van Gogh’s Long Grass With Butterflies. Those things such as grass, butterflies were quite common in my life. However, I had never thought they were worth attention. I had usually followed the crowd to see what was “special”. Actually, we should pay more attention to the “common” things around us.
Sometimes we are supposed to have a careful look, think for a while, then we will find the beauty in our life.

B. This exhibition included 52 artworks of different styles.
C. Monet’s Long Grass With Butterfly was very special in fact.
D. All the visitors enjoyed taking photos and showing them on WeChat.
35. What’s the best title of the passage?

Traditional Chinese Medicine is also called “TCM”, is an ancient system of traditional medicine. It has developed for thousands of years and is an important part of Chinese culture. Today people in 183 countries and areas are now using TCM. Massage (按摩), Guasha, Qigong, Tai Ji and acupuncture (针灸) are some common kinds of treatment of TCM. Chinese massage can make you relaxed and fresh. In acupuncture, doctors put long needles (针) into the patients’ heads, faces, arms and so on. It takes away pain, though the look is funny.
The earliest medical classic in China, Huangdi’s Classic on Medicine (《黄帝内经》), came out more than 2,000 years ago. The book is about the relationship between man and nature. In Chinese culture, yin and yang are the two parts of nature. Nature keeps balanced if yin and yang work well together. According to TCM, imbalances in the human body can lead to health problems, so many TCM treatments focus on restoring this balance.
To many people’s surprise, for some health problems, a doctor of TCM will not give you medicine. Instead, he may give you just a food plan and right ways to eat. For example, TCM thinks it’s wrong to eat on the way to school, at our desk, or in front of the TV. But here are the correct ways: Sit down to eat. While eating, turn off the TV and get away from the work desk. Eat seasonal foods. Do not miss any of the three meals.
36. What do we learn from paragraph one?
A. TCM is popular in many countries now. B. There are only five kinds of treatment of TCM.
C. Acupuncture can bring fun to us. D. Chinese massage can take away pain.
37. Huangdi’s Classic on Medicine is about relationship between ________.
A. man and woman B. yin and yang C. man and nature D. food and health

39. Which is a good eating habit?

① Balloons can serve not only as a toy, but also as a means of transport. A balloon is a bag filled with air or some other gas. People love to release colorful balloons for special events such as festivals and ceremonies. Colorful balloons may look pretty, but they can bring about some serious problems.
② After balloons are released, they can end up hundreds of kilometers away from where they are released, causing great harm to the environment and wildlife. It is well known that popular helium (氦) balloons can travel up to 800 km before the helium releases and balloons fall to earth. This means they can fly almost everywhere, including waterways, oceans, mountains and farmlands.
③ Well, in our daily life, there are two types of balloons in general use. Most of the balloons we use are latex (乳胶) balloons. In fact, it will take them six months to four years to decompose (分解) and they can cause pollution before they do. The other one is mylar balloons (铝膜气球). They are a kind of plastic balloons which cannot be decomposed and can stay in the environment forever.
④ All of these materials, if littered, can add to the amount of plastic waste in our environment. At the same time, it can result in the injury or death of animals. Balloons may break up into smaller pieces over time. Sea animals, such as whales, turtles and seabirds, often mistake them for food, and if eaten, those small pieces can make them hard to breathe and then cause them to die. Besides, they can also easily get themselves caught together tightly in balloon ribbons (带子). Even worse, it has been found that some birds are collecting balloon pieces, thinking that they’ re food, and even feeding them to their babies.
⑤ All in all, don’t release balloons any more so as to reduce pollution and protect animals. Every small step we take can make the world better, healthier and cleaner.
41. A balloon is filled with ________.
A. colorful water B. latex (乳胶) C. only helium (氦) D. air or some other gas
42. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. Helium balloons can fly for a short time.
B. Releasing balloons can produce rubbish.
C. Balloons are very important in our daily life.
D. Balloons can have a bad influence on the environment and wildlife.
43. What’s the biggest difference between mylar balloons and latex balloons?
A. Mylar balloons can’t be decomposed over time.
B. Mylar balloons can be used for the second time.
C. Mylar balloons’ pieces won’t turn into plastic waste.
D. Mylar balloons’ pieces could cause the death of animals.
44. What’s the best structure of the text?
A. B. C. D.
45. The writer writes this text in order to ________.
A. create a new world B. protect the environment
C. protect sea animals D. show us different kinds of balloons
【答案】41. D 42. D 43. A 44. C 45. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍气球的用途,指出放飞气球会给环境与野生动物带来严重危害,区分乳胶气球与铝膜气球的分解差异,列举气球垃圾伤害动物的具体表现,最后呼吁大家不要再放飞气球,减少污染、保护动物。
【41题详解】
原文第一段第二句:“A balloon is a bag filled with air or some other gas.”,直接说明气球内填充空气或其他气体。
【42题详解】
原文第二段内容为:放飞后的气球会飘至数百公里外,遍布水域、海洋、农田等地,对环境和野生动物造成巨大伤害。D选项(气球会对环境和野生动物造成不良影响)能完整概括段落主旨。
【43题详解】
根据原文第三段:“Most…latex balloons. In fact, it will take them six months to four years to decomposeand…”及“The other one is mylar balloons…plastic balloons which cannot be decomposed and can stay in the environment forever.”可知,乳胶气球需要6个月至4年才能分解;铝膜气球属于塑料气球,无法被分解,会永久留存在环境中。A选项(铝膜气球无法随时间分解)是二者核心差异。
【44题详解】
根据原文:①总起:气球有多种用途,但会带来严重问题;②③④分述:②讲放飞气球的大范围污染、③区分两类气球分解差异、④列举气球碎片伤害动物的事例;⑤总结:呼吁停止放飞气球,保护环境动物。可知结构为「总—分—总」,对应C选项树形图。
【45题详解】
原文最后一段:“don’t release balloons any more so as to reduce pollution and protect animals”,作者通过讲述气球危害,呼吁减少污染、保护环境。B选项(保护环境)正确。

Ⅴ. 情景交际
根据中文情境提示写句子,或将句子补充完整。(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
51. 你想知道小汽车是什么时候发明的,你可以问:
________________________?
【答案】
When was the car invented
【解析】
【详解】根据语境可知,本句为一般过去时的特殊疑问句。询问“什么时候”,使用特殊疑问词When;主语“the car”是“发明”的承受者,需用一般过去时的被动语态,结构为was/were + 过去分词;主语“小汽车”是单数,be动词用was;“发明”的过去分词是invented;特殊疑问句结构为“特殊疑问词+ be动词+主语+过去分词”。
52. 在商场里,你想知道卫生间在哪里,你可以这样问:
Excuse me, could you please tell me ________________?
【答案】
where the restroom/washroom is
【解析】
【详解】该问句用于在商场等公共场所礼貌地询问卫生间的位置。“Excuse me, could you please tell me...”是询问地点的常用礼貌句型,后接宾语从句需用陈述语序。“where the restroom/washroom is”准确表达“卫生间在哪里”,整体表达符合日常问路场景。
53. 你想表达月饼很美味,你会这样说:
I think that ________________________.
【答案】mooncakes are delicious
【解析】
【详解】根据题干和“I think that”可知,此处可说“我觉得月饼很美味”。根据“I think that”可知that引导宾语从句,从句应用一般现在时,“月饼”mooncakes,“很美味”delicious,由于从句主语mooncakes是复数,故从句谓语应用be动词应用are。故填mooncakes are delicious。
54. 你想知道如何成为好的学习者,你会这样问同学:
________________________
【答案】
How can I become a good learner?
【解析】
【详解】根据汉语提示“想知道如何成为好的学习者”,询问方式/方法应用特殊疑问词 how(怎样/如何) 引导;“成为好的学习者”可译为“become a good learner/be a good learner”;向同学提问可用一般疑问句式或特殊疑问句式。常用表达为“How can I become a good learner?”
55. 你想问售货员这些衬衫是什么材质做成的,你会这样问:
________________________?
【答案】
What are these shirts made of
【解析】
【详解】询问物品由什么材质制成,固定句型为“What be ... made of?”。 these shirts“这些衬衫”作主语,因此be动词应使用are。

【58题详解】
提示词为“make”、“China”,图片物品是戒指,固定结构“be made in+国家”表示“某地制造”,主语“the ring”为单数,be动词用“is”,构成句子“The ring is made in China”,完美匹配图画物品与所给提示词。

When was it that something made you stop, take a good look and get lost in thought? For me, it was last Sunday. My friend invited me to a European art exhibition in Shanghai.
To be honest, I’m not interested in art paintings at all. I know very little about European art. So, at first, I refused to go to the exhibition. But finally I became excited to see the artworks of the famous artists like Monet(莫奈) and Van Gogh(梵高). The exhibition included 52 artworks. It was really a different experience to see them face to face.
My friend was happy to see so many different painting styles in one place. The visit made her remember the trip to Paris several years ago. She told me that art could be found in every corner of the city.
Most of the visitors, I thought, had limited(有限的) knowledge about art, too. They were just busy taking pictures, and then showed everyone on WeChat that they had been there. Under the influence of my friend, who is an art lover, I began to look at the paintings carefully. One painting that moved me most was Van Gogh’s Long Grass With Butterflies. Those things such as grass, butterflies were quite common in my life. However, I had never thought they were worth attention. I had usually followed the crowd to see what was “special”. Actually, we should pay more attention to the “common” things around us.
Sometimes we are supposed to have a careful look, think for a while, then we will find the beauty in our life.
31. Where was the exhibition held?
A. Shanghai. B. Europe. C. Paris. D. Not mentioned.
32. The underlined word “them” in paragraph 2 refers to “________ ”.
A. the artists B. the artworks C. the visitors D. the writer and her friend
33. Which is the right order about the writer according to the passage?
①I refused to go to the art exhibition.
② I went to see the exhibition with my friend.
③ I was invited to the exhibition.
④ I was moved by Long Grass With Butterfly.
A. ④③②① B. ④②①③ C. ③①②④ D. ③④②①

Traditional Chinese Medicine is also called “TCM”, is an ancient system of traditional medicine. It has developed for thousands of years and is an important part of Chinese culture. Today people in 183 countries and areas are now using TCM. Massage (按摩), Guasha, Qigong, Tai Ji and acupuncture (针灸) are some common kinds of treatment of TCM. Chinese massage can make you relaxed and fresh. In acupuncture, doctors put long needles (针) into the patients’ heads, faces, arms and so on. It takes away pain, though the look is funny.
The earliest medical classic in China, Huangdi’s Classic on Medicine (《黄帝内经》), came out more than 2,000 years ago. The book is about the relationship between man and nature. In Chinese culture, yin and yang are the two parts of nature. Nature keeps balanced if yin and yang work well together. According to TCM, imbalances in the human body can lead to health problems, so many TCM treatments focus on restoring this balance.
To many people’s surprise, for some health problems, a doctor of TCM will not give you medicine. Instead, he may give you just a food plan and right ways to eat. For example, TCM thinks it’s wrong to eat on the way to school, at our desk, or in front of the TV. But here are the correct ways: Sit down to eat. While eating, turn off the TV and get away from the work desk. Eat seasonal foods. Do not miss any of the three meals.

① Balloons can serve not only as a toy, but also as a means of transport. A balloon is a bag filled with air or some other gas. People love to release colorful balloons for special events such as festivals and ceremonies. Colorful balloons may look pretty, but they can bring about some serious problems.
② After balloons are released, they can end up hundreds of kilometers away from where they are released, causing great harm to the environment and wildlife. It is well known that popular helium (氦) balloons can travel up to 800 km before the helium releases and balloons fall to earth. This means they can fly almost everywhere, including waterways, oceans, mountains and farmlands.
③ Well, in our daily life, there are two types of balloons in general use. Most of the balloons we use are latex (乳胶) balloons. In fact, it will take them six months to four years to decompose (分解) and they can cause pollution before they do. The other one is mylar balloons (铝膜气球). They are a kind of plastic balloons which cannot be decomposed and can stay in the environment forever.
④ All of these materials, if littered, can add to the amount of plastic waste in our environment. At the same time, it can result in the injury or death of animals. Balloons may break up into smaller pieces over time. Sea animals, such as whales, turtles and seabirds, often mistake them for food, and if eaten, those small pieces can make them hard to breathe and then cause them to die. Besides, they can also easily get themselves caught together tightly in balloon ribbons (带子). Even worse, it has been found that some birds are collecting balloon pieces, thinking that they’ re food, and even feeding them to their babies.
⑤ All in all, don’t release balloons any more so as to reduce pollution and protect animals. Every small step we take can make the world better, healthier and cleaner.
