One winter morning, Tapiwa Chiwewe was driving to work in Johannesburg, South Africa. He noticed a haze (薄雾) hanging over the city and it didn’t take long for him to realize that it was the pollution we suffered.
At that moment, Chiwewe felt an urge to do something about it, but didn’t know what. He was a computer engineer and knew little about environmental science.
He first did research on air pollution and found that it is the world’s biggest environmental health risk. He decided to work on it in a cooperative (合作的) way. He talked to scientists, officials, and engineers who helped him develop a deeper understanding of the situation, as well as an idea to improve it.
Through years of work. Chiwewe and his coworkers from South Africa and China created an online air quality decision support system (系统). Based on historical and real-time data, the system can correctly predict (预测) air pollution and air quality, which can help people make better decisions about their daily movements, as well as help officials better manage their operations.
Chiwewe learned an important lesson—“a lesson we all need to take into heart if we are to work towards a better future. Even if you’re not an expert in a particular field, your outside expertise may hold the key to solving problems within that field,” he said.
What if Chiwewe hadn’t worried to research the problem and do something about it? What if he had just hoped that someone, somewhere, was taking care of the matter? As Chiwewe said: “Why not just go ahead and deal with the problem as well as you can, in your own way? You may be pleasantly surprised.”
31. Tapiwa Chiwewe worked in _________.
A. China B. America C. South Africa D. Japan
32. Chiwewe found that _________ is the world’s biggest environmental health risk.
A. water pollution B. land pollution C. air pollution D. light pollution
33. What does the underlined word “expertise” mean in the text?
A. 传统观念 B. 专业知识 C. 业务能力 D. 感性认识
34. What can we know from the passage?
A. Chiwewe is a person with a sense of social responsibility.
B. Chiwewe knew more about environmental science.
C. Chiwewe worked on the pollution by himself.
D. The system can reduce the pollution.
35. How is the text organized? (①: Paragraph 1 ②: Paragraph 2…)
A. B. C. D.
【答案】31. C 32. C 33. B 34. A 35. B
【解析】

【34题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知,尽管塔皮瓦·奇威韦是一名计算机工程师,对环境科学知之甚少,但他还是做了很多事情保护环境,所以他是一个有社会责任感的人。故选A。
【35题详解】
篇章结构题。第一二段介绍了文章的背景和人物,第三四五段介绍塔皮瓦·奇威韦为保护环境所做的事情,第六段总结。故选B。
C
Is the world too crowded? Well, that is a hard question to answer. In Montana America, you might drive for a mile and not see anyone. In Tokyo, Japan, over 10,000 people live in every square mile!
The population is one of the most important things in the world today. In fact, the world’s population doesn’t stay the same. As we all know, China held the title (头衔) for having the largest population in the world—over 1.4 billion. But India overtook China and became the country with the largest population last year. By the end of 2030, its population will be over 1.5 billion.
Five hundred years ago, the population of the world was about 425million. There are about 8 billion people in the world now. By 2050, the world’s population will be more than 9 billion. If the world’s population keeps growing, by 2080 there will be over 10 billion people on the earth. Wow! That’s a lot of people!
Some people worry about that! The large population is a big problem because it will cause lots of problems in the future. More people will need more food and more space. The more people there are, the more resource (资源) the world needs, and the more we need to think carefully about how we live and use the earth’s resources.
With the increasing population, we must take action to protect the earth. Simple habits like reducing waste, saving energy, and planting trees can help. Education is also the key to helping people understand the importance of sustainable (可持续的) living. If we all work together, we can keep the earth clean and safe for our children and grandchildren.

It has been two months since Richard Watson wore 200 special transmitters (信号发射机) for his cows. They are parts of an artificial intelligence (AI) system named Ida. This AI system can send messages to Watson’s phone when his cows are healthy or when they are not feeling well, and it can tell how many animals are sick to the dairy farmers (奶农) and also help them pick out the sick animals.
With the AI system, farmers can get the information they need from their phones instead of going to the farms to check animals every day. So, this AI system can help people spare their time to do other things. Many dairy farmers are interested in Ida. Watson is one of them. On a common morning in March, he pulled out his phone to check his Ida App. It showed that Cows #97800 and #97782 were eating less. This might mean that there was something wrong with them.
However, some farmers say, “I can find out the cow that isn’t feeling great just by looking at her eyes.” Mark Rodgers is a neighbor of Watson’s. He said, “This is what I can do by myself. My experience can help me look after them better. Technology isn’t always useful.”
Ida was developed by the company Connecterra. Yasir Khokhar, the company’s boss, said he came up with the idea while he was living on a farm in Holland. The system can record cow’s behaviors by studying videos of them. It now can track seven cows’ behaviors. The company is still trying to improve this technology to provide much more convenience (便利) for farmers.
41. The AI system Ida can help farmers ________.
① look after their animals ② pick out the sick animals
③number the sick animals ④ change animals’ behaviors
A. ①② B. ②③ C. ③④ D. ②④
42. What’s the main idea of paragraph 2?
A. Farmers have problems feeding cows.
B. Farmers are busy checking the animals.
C. AI technologies are used in many fields.
D. This AI system is popular with dairy farmers.
43. What can we infer from the text?
A. Yasit Khokhar will stop his company business.
B. Richard Watson will keep more cows on his farm.
C. Mark Rodgers doesn’t want any help from the system.
D. The system can also provide the cows with medical treatment.
44. Which of the following best describes Yasir Khokhar?
A. Creative. B. Brave. C. Honest. D. Friendly.
45. What’s the main purpose of the text?
A. To list the features of Ida.
B. To improve the design of Ida
C. To give the introduction of Ida.
D. To explain the development of Ida.
【答案】41. B 42. D 43. C 44. A 45. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项名为Ida的AI科技给奶农带来的好处及便利,虽然仍有一些奶农并不认可这项技术,但开发公司仍在努力改进,以便为奶农提供更好的服务。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“it can tell how many animals are sick to the dairy farmers (奶农) and also help them pick out the sick animals.”可知,它可以告诉奶农患病动物的数量并且挑出患病的动物。故选B。
【42题详解】
主旨大意题。根据“With the AI system, farmers can get the information they need from their phones instead of going to the farms to check animals every day”可知本段主要介绍了这个人工智能系统很受奶农的欢迎。故选D。

As we know, Zhang Guimei was the founder of China’s first and only free public high school for girls. ___46___
Zhang was born in Heilongjiang. ___47___ In 1996, after her husband’s death, she volunteered to teach at Huaping Centre Middle School, and became the director of the county’s orphan-age (孤儿院) in 2001.
After a short period of working, she learned that most abandoned (被遗弃的) children in the area were girls. ___48___ Many of Huaping’s girls were leaving school early to marry or earn a living.
___49___ “If a woman was educated, how would she abandon her child? I really want to stop this vicious cycle (恶性循环) of uneducated mothers and children,” she said in a CCTV report.
With Zhang’s effort, around 100 girls from poor local families came to live and study at the new school. ___50___ Zhang went on her work for the next 15 years. That’s especially worthy of respect considering nearly half of the teachers in the countryside in China give up because of the poor environment, low income and lack of respect.
“This is no longer a matter of respect for work. She is a well-deserved (当之无愧的) model of the times,” someone said on Weibo.
A. At 17, she moved to Yunnan with her father.
B. She was praised as a hero for building the school in Huaping County.
C. Three years later, they all passed examinations and went on to university.
D. Zhang strongly decided to provide free high school education for these girls.
E. And while boys were encouraged to continue their education, their female classmates were not.
【答案】46. B 47. A 48. E 49. D 50. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了张桂梅的事迹。
【46题详解】
根据上文“As we know, Zhang Guimei was the founder of China’s first and only free public high school for girls.” 可知,空格处应介绍张桂梅,选项B“她因在华坪县修建了这所学校而被誉为英雄。”符合语境。故选B。
【47题详解】
根据上文“Zhang was born in Heilongjiang.”可知,空格处应介绍张桂梅的个人经历。选项A“17岁时,她随父亲移居云南。”符合语境。故选A。
【48题详解】
根据下文“Many of Huaping’s girls were leaving school early to marry or earn a living.”可知,女孩被迫辍学,所以空格处应和女生无法上学有关,选项E“虽然男生被鼓励继续接受教育,但他们的女同学却没有。”符合语境。故选E。
【49题详解】
根据下文“I really want to stop this vicious cycle (恶性循环) of uneducated mothers and children”可知,空格处应和张桂梅的决心有关,选项D“张坚定地决定为这些女孩提供免费高中教育。”符合语境。故选D。

Ⅴ.情景交际 根据情景提示,完成下列各题(每小题2分,满分10分)
51. 你迫不及待想飞去北京, 你可以这样说:
________________________________________ Beijing.
【答案】I can’t wait to fly to
【解析】
【详解】根据情景可以表达为“我迫不及待想飞去北京”;I“我”,can’t wait to do sth.“迫不及待地想做某事”,fly“飞”,to“向”。故填I can’t wait to fly to。
52. 铃响了,你这样告诉同桌:
There ______________________.
【答案】 goes the bell
【解析】
【详解】根据提示可知,there为地点副词,位于句首,句子需倒装,the bell主语,意为“铃” ,谓语动词需用三单形式,go“响”,倒装时动词在前,主语在后。故填goes the bell。
53. 你们班刚刚输了足球比赛,你可以这样表达你的惋惜:
________________________________________________________!
【答案】What a pity
【解析】
【详解】由题干可知此句要表达对输了足球比赛的遗憾,可表达为“多么遗憾”,pity“遗憾”,名词,用what构成感叹句,What a pity“多么遗憾”,故填What a pity。
54. 你的朋友要去旅游,你可以这样对他说:
___________________________________________________________.
【答案】Have a good time/Have a good trip/Have fun
【解析】
【详解】朋友要去旅游,可以说“玩得愉快”,其英语表达为have a good time/have a good trip/have fun。故填Have a good time/Have a good trip/Have fun。
55. 你想搭顺风车去学校,可以这样问:
Excuse me, ____________________________?
【答案】could you please give me a ride to school
【解析】
【详解】题目情境是“想搭顺风车去学校”,需要表达请求对方载你一程。英语中“搭顺风车/载某人一程”常用短语为give sb. a ride。向他人提出请求时,为了表示礼貌,常用句型Could you please...?。故填入could you please give me a ride to school。
Ⅵ.看图写话
根据每小题所提供的图画情景和提示词,写出一个与图画情景相符的句子。
56. there be,pour_____
57. invent, in 1885_____
58. bad;eyes_____
59. used to_____
60. should,obey_____
【答案】56. There are some factories pouring waste water into the river.
57. The car was invented in 1885.
58. Reading in the sun is bad for our eyes.
59. They used to walk to school./They used to go to school on foot.
60. We should obey the traffic rules.
【解析】
【56题详解】
there be有;pour…into向……倾倒。图片是工厂正向河里倾倒废水,一般现在时。There be sb./sth. doing sth.有某人或某物正在做某事;几家工厂some factories为复数,be用are。pour waste water into the river向河里倾倒废水。故答案为There are some factories pouring waste water into the river.
【57题详解】
根据所给单词invent发明和短语in 1885在1885年,结合图片内容可知car小汽车;因此可以判断句意为"这辆小汽车发明于1885年."小汽车是被发明,且in 1885年是表过去的时间状语,因此要用一般过去时的被动语态。结构为was/were+动词的过去分词,the car 为单数,谓语动词用单数第三人称形式was;invent的过去分词为invented。故答案为The car was invented in 1885.
【58题详解】
bad坏的,糟糕的,为形容词,常用结构be bad for对…有害;eyes眼睛。观察图片可知在阳光下看书read in the sun;因此可判断句意为"在阳光下看书对对我们的眼睛有害."read in the sun为动词短语,做主语时要用其动名词形式reading in the sun。动名词短语做主语时,谓语动词用单数第三人称形式。故答案为Reading in the sun is bad for our eyes.
【59题详解】
used to do sth. 过去常常做某事;结合图片可知walk/on foot步行,且图片中有两人。由此可判断句意为"他们过去常常步行去上学." 步行去上学可表达为walk to school/go to school on foot.故答案为They used to walk to school. /They used to go to school on foot.
【60题详解】
should应该,为情态动词,后跟动词原形;obey遵守;图片内容为遵守交通规则obey the traffic rules;因此可推断句意为"我们应该遵守交通规则."故答案为We should obey the traffic rules.
Ⅶ.短文填词(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)

Sleep like a giraffe
Giraffenap is made to improve performance at work through short sleep. A Japanese company says that it will allow the user to be energetic in just 20 minutes.

One winter morning, Tapiwa Chiwewe was driving to work in Johannesburg, South Africa. He noticed a haze (薄雾) hanging over the city and it didn’t take long for him to realize that it was the pollution we suffered.
At that moment, Chiwewe felt an urge to do something about it, but didn’t know what. He was a computer engineer and knew little about environmental science.
He first did research on air pollution and found that it is the world’s biggest environmental health risk. He decided to work on it in a cooperative (合作的) way. He talked to scientists, officials, and engineers who helped him develop a deeper understanding of the situation, as well as an idea to improve it.
Through years of work. Chiwewe and his coworkers from South Africa and China created an online air quality decision support system (系统). Based on historical and real-time data, the system can correctly predict (预测) air pollution and air quality, which can help people make better decisions about their daily movements, as well as help officials better manage their operations.
Chiwewe learned an important lesson—“a lesson we all need to take into heart if we are to work towards a better future. Even if you’re not an expert in a particular field, your outside expertise may hold the key to solving problems within that field,” he said.
What if Chiwewe hadn’t worried to research the problem and do something about it? What if he had just hoped that someone, somewhere, was taking care of the matter? As Chiwewe said: “Why not just go ahead and deal with the problem as well as you can, in your own way? You may be pleasantly surprised.”
31. Tapiwa Chiwewe worked in _________.
A. China B. America C. South Africa D. Japan
32. Chiwewe found that _________ is the world’s biggest environmental health risk.
A. water pollution B. land pollution C. air pollution D. light pollution
33. What does the underlined word “expertise” mean in the text?
A. 传统观念 B. 专业知识 C. 业务能力 D. 感性认识
34. What can we know from the passage?
A. Chiwewe is a person with a sense of social responsibility.
B. Chiwewe knew more about environmental science.
C. Chiwewe worked on the pollution by himself.
D. The system can reduce the pollution.
35. How is the text organized? (①: Paragraph 1 ②: Paragraph 2…)
A. B. C. D.
C
Is the world too crowded? Well, that is a hard question to answer. In Montana America, you might drive for a mile and not see anyone. In Tokyo, Japan, over 10,000 people live in every square mile!
The population is one of the most important things in the world today. In fact, the world’s population doesn’t stay the same. As we all know, China held the title (头衔) for having the largest population in the world—over 1.4 billion. But India overtook China and became the country with the largest population last year. By the end of 2030, its population will be over 1.5 billion.
Five hundred years ago, the population of the world was about 425million. There are about 8 billion people in the world now. By 2050, the world’s population will be more than 9 billion. If the world’s population keeps growing, by 2080 there will be over 10 billion people on the earth. Wow! That’s a lot of people!
Some people worry about that! The large population is a big problem because it will cause lots of problems in the future. More people will need more food and more space. The more people there are, the more resource (资源) the world needs, and the more we need to think carefully about how we live and use the earth’s resources.
With the increasing population, we must take action to protect the earth. Simple habits like reducing waste, saving energy, and planting trees can help. Education is also the key to helping people understand the importance of sustainable (可持续的) living. If we all work together, we can keep the earth clean and safe for our children and grandchildren.

It has been two months since Richard Watson wore 200 special transmitters (信号发射机) for his cows. They are parts of an artificial intelligence (AI) system named Ida. This AI system can send messages to Watson’s phone when his cows are healthy or when they are not feeling well, and it can tell how many animals are sick to the dairy farmers (奶农) and also help them pick out the sick animals.
With the AI system, farmers can get the information they need from their phones instead of going to the farms to check animals every day. So, this AI system can help people spare their time to do other things. Many dairy farmers are interested in Ida. Watson is one of them. On a common morning in March, he pulled out his phone to check his Ida App. It showed that Cows #97800 and #97782 were eating less. This might mean that there was something wrong with them.
However, some farmers say, “I can find out the cow that isn’t feeling great just by looking at her eyes.” Mark Rodgers is a neighbor of Watson’s. He said, “This is what I can do by myself. My experience can help me look after them better. Technology isn’t always useful.”
Ida was developed by the company Connecterra. Yasir Khokhar, the company’s boss, said he came up with the idea while he was living on a farm in Holland. The system can record cow’s behaviors by studying videos of them. It now can track seven cows’ behaviors. The company is still trying to improve this technology to provide much more convenience (便利) for farmers.
