In Japan, people usually use 21 to eat. It’s rude to stick chopsticks straight into rice. When you eat, you’d better not talk too much. If you are invited to a Japanese family’s home, you should take off your 22 before entering the room.

When I was a little girl, sometimes some boys called me terrible names.” Ollie looked up and asked, “Why did they do that?” “Some children could be unkind, especially if they don’t feel good about themselves.

Does the Dead Sea sound like a place where you’d like to go swimming? What do you expect to see in it? Do you believe there are dead things in the Dead Sea?
Lying in southwest Asia, the Dead Sea is about 80 kilometres long, about 18 kilometres wide and about 300 metres deep. It also has some other names, such as the Salt Sea, the East Sea, or the Sea of the Plain.
Even though it’s called the Dead Sea, it isn’t a sea at all! It’s a lake. Different from other lakes you might have seen, the Dead Sea is quite a salty lake. In fact, the Dead Sea is one of the saltiest bodies of water in the world. The Dead Sea is so salty that no fish or plants can live in it, though some microorganisms can still survive. That’s why it’s called the Dead Sea. And the Dead Sea stays quite salty because it gets only a little rain, and so little fresh water gets into the Dead Sea each year.
Don’t let the name of the Dead Sea make you feel scared. The Dead Sea is a surprising place to visit, and many people go to the Dead Sea each year on holiday. One interesting thing is that anyone can float in the Dead Sea. So if you walk on the beach of the Dead Sea on a warm day, perhaps you can see many people floating in its waters. You might even see many of them reading books or magazines!

C.Almost no rain or fresh water enters the Dead Sea. D.Plants can live in the Dead Sea.
49.What does the underlined word “float” mean in the passage?
A.To move slowly in the air. B.To fly slowly in the air.
C.To move slowly on water. D.To move slowly under water.
50.What is the purpose of the passage?
A.To ask for opinions on swimming in the Dead Sea.

Andersen is one of the greatest fairy tale 66 in the world and his stories are popular among generations of children. Born into a poor family, he 67 many difficulties in his youth. But these all inspired him to write wonderful stories. In his fairy tales, children not only see a fancy world but also learn difficult themes (主题) of life in 68 ways.
In The Little Mermaid, to stay with the prince, the little mermaid asks the witch to change her tail into human legs.

Li Ming is going to study English in New York. He has not been there before and he is quite interested in the great differences between American and Chinese cultures.
For one thing, Americans and Chinese are different in arranging (安排) a visit. In many places of China, people usually call on their neighbors unexpectedly. Americans prefer making an appointment in advance (提前). An unexpected visitor is regarded as impolite.
For another thing, their table manners are different. Chinese usually eat directly from the serving dishes. And during the meal, the host may keep putting food on the guest’s plate. An American, however, only eats from his own plate. He never picks up food for others unless he is asked to do so.
Moreover, they have different reactions when they hear compliments (赞美). For example, when a Chinese hostess is praised for her cooking skills, she will instantly deny that because Chinese are often modest. But an American is likely to accept it and say, “Oh, I’m glad you like it. I cooked it especially for you.”
At the beginning, it was hard for Li Ming to get used to things around him because of these cultural differences. But soon, he succeeded in adjusting to their ways of doing things. “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” He liked to say that when he was asked how he could get along in a new culture.

(基础卷,成都专用)
学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________
A卷 (共100分)
第一部分 听力(共30小题;计30分)
(略)
第二部分 基础知识运用(共30小题;计40分)
六、选择填空(共15小题;计20分)
A.从以下各题的A、B、C三个选项中选择最佳选项。(共10小题;每小题1分,计10分)
1.— What are you going to be when you grow up?
— A singer, but my parents wish me ________ a teacher.
A.am B.to be C.will be
【答案】B
【详解】句意:——当你长大后,你将干什么?——歌手,但是我的父母希望我成为一名老师。
动词wish的固定用法为wish sb to do sth,意为“希望某人做某事”,此处用动词不定式作宾补,因此应填to be。
2.Nobody paid for her. She bought ________ a new dress for the party.
A.her B.herself C.him
【答案】B
【详解】句意:没人替她付钱。她为自己买了一件新裙子去参加派对。
her她/她的;herself她自己;him他。根据“Nobody paid for her.”可知没人给她付钱,结合主语She,说明是她自己买的,当主语和宾语指代同一人时,宾语用反身代词,She对应的反身代词是herself。
3.If you have trouble reading aloud the new words, you can repeat them over and over again ________ you are comfortable with them.
A.unless B.until C.while
【答案】B
【详解】句意:如果你大声朗读新单词有困难,你可以反复重复它们,直到你对它们感到熟悉为止。
unless除非;until直到……为止;while当……时候。根据“repeat them over and over again”可知动作持续进行,直到达到“comfortable”的状态,until符合语境。
4.— It was ________ unusual day. We went on an outing and had great fun.
— Yes, we are looking forward to the next trip.
A.a B.the C.an
【答案】C
【详解】句意:——那是一个不同寻常的一天。我们去郊游了,玩得很开心。——是的,我们期待下一次旅行。
a 一个(用于辅音音素前);the 这/那(特指);an 一个(用于元音音素前)。根据空后单词“unusual”是以元音音素开头,且表示泛指,应选 an。
5.The paper-cut is as ______ as the sugar painting in China. Both of them are treasures of our country.
A.valuable B.more valuable C.the most valuable
【答案】A
【详解】句意:在中国,剪纸和糖画一样有价值。它们都是我们国家的瑰宝。
valuable有价值的;more valuable更有价值的;the most valuable最有价值的。根据“as...as”结构可知,中间需用形容词原级,表示“和……一样……”。应填valuable。
6.—What were you doing________your sister came in?
—I was doing my homework in my room.
A.when B.after C.while
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——当你妹妹进来的时候,你在做什么?——我在房间里做作业。
when当……时候;after在……之后;while当……时候。根据题干可知,主句“What were you doing”是过去进行时,表示延续性动作;从句“your sister came in”是一般过去时,came in为短暂性动作。when既可接延续性动词也可接短暂性动词,常用于“be doing…when…”结构;while通常接延续性动词。此处表示当一个短暂动作发生时,另一个动作正在进行。
7.After they walked into the stadium, they were ________ excited ________ they couldn’t wait to share the exciting moments with their friends.
A.such; that B.so; that C.too; to
【答案】B
【详解】句意:走进体育场后,他们如此兴奋以至于迫不及待地想和朋友们分享激动人心的时刻。
too...to...意思是“太……而不能……”,to后需要接动词原形(不定式),本题第二空后是完整的句子,不符合该结构,排除C。so...that...和such...that...两个结构都表示“如此……以至于……”,都可以引导结果状语从句,但用法不同:so后接形容词或副词,such后接(形容词修饰的)名词短语。第一空后是形容词excited(兴奋的),符合so的用法,因此选so; that。
8.It’s necessary ________ us to spend an hour reading every day.
A.for B.of C.with
【答案】A
【详解】句意:每天花一小时阅读对我们来说是必要的。
for对于;of……的;with和。固定句型“It's+adj.+for sb.+to do sth.”表示“做某事对某人来说是……的”,形容词necessary描述的是事情的性质而非人的品格,因此使用介词for。应填for。
9.The writer ________ many popular books since 2010.
A.wrote B.writes C.has written
【答案】C
【详解】句意:自2010年以来,这位作家已经写了许多畅销书。
根据时间状语“since 2010”可知,句子表示动作从过去开始一直持续到现在,应用现在完成时,其结构为have/has+过去分词。
10.Her brother ________ already ________ three English novels this term.
A.has; finished B.is; finishing C.will; finish
【答案】A
【详解】句意:她弟弟这学期已经读完了三本英文小说。
根据“already”和时间状语“this term”可知,此处表示截止到目前本学期已经完成的动作,应用现在完成时结构,且主语“Her brother”为单数第三人称,助动词应用has,应填has; finished。
11.—Has she finished her homework ________?
—Yes, she handed it in ten minutes ago.
A.ever B.yet C.never
【答案】B
【详解】句意:——她已经完成她的作业了吗?——是的,她十分钟前就交了。
ever曾经;yet还、迄今为止;never从未。空格所在句为现在完成时的一般疑问句,用于询问“到目前为止是否已完成某事”,空格处需填入一个副词;yet可用于现在完成时的疑问句中,翻译为“到目前为止”,符合语境。
12.You ________ stand up to reach for food at the table.
A.should B.shouldn’t C.must
【答案】B
【详解】句意:你不应该站起来去够桌子上的食物。
should应该;shouldn’t不应该;must必须。根据餐桌礼仪,吃饭时站起来去拿食物是不礼貌的行为,表示建议不要做某事。应填shouldn’t。
13.He broke his leg. ________, he couldn’t play in the basketball game.
A.Fortunately B.Thankfully C.As a result
【答案】C
【详解】句意:他摔断了腿。因此,他不能参加篮球比赛了。
Fortunately幸运地;Thankfully谢天谢地;As a result因此。根据语境可知,前后句构成因果关系,摔断腿导致无法参赛,As a result符合语境。故选C。
14.He kept walking ________ until he found the exit.
A.bit by bit B.all of a sudden C.out of breath
【答案】A
【详解】句意:他一直一步步往前走,直到找到了出口。
bit by bit一点点地、逐步地;all of a sudden突然;out of breath上气不接下气。根据“kept walking”可知,句中表达持续行走的状态,结合动作过程的描述,应填bit by bit。
15.When I was young, I ________ myself to get up early every day to practice running for the sports meeting.
A.let B.made C.forced
【答案】C
【详解】句意:当我年轻的时候,我强迫自己每天早起为运动会练习跑步。
let让;made使;forced强迫。根据句中“myself to get up”可知,空后接了带to的不定式,let和make后接省略to的不定式(即动词原形),只有force符合force sb. to do sth.的结构。

【导语】本文主要讲述了周六去社区动物收容所做志愿者的经历,包括工作内容、感受及未来计划,体现了爱心与责任。
【详解】26.句意:我一直都很喜欢动物,也想做些事情来帮助有需要的无家可归的动物。
根据“homeless animals”可知它们处于困境中,短语in need是固定搭配,意思是“有需要的、处于困境中的”,用来修饰homeless animals,表示帮助那些需要帮助的无家可归的动物,符合上下文语境。
27.句意:他们告诉我收容所在照顾流浪动物方面起着重要作用。
短语play an important role是固定搭配,意思是“扮演重要角色、发挥重要作用”。因为important是以元音音素/ɪ/开头的单词,所以要用不定冠词an。

donate one’s free time表示“奉献/献出空闲时间”,符合志愿者无偿付出时间帮忙的语境。
29.句意:因为这是我第一次做这份工作,起初我感到有点紧张。
根据前后因果关系,第一次做所以紧张,所以要填Since,意为“因为”。A表转折,B表条件,不符逻辑。
30.句意:工作人员给了我很多有用的建议,我很快习惯了。
根据“got used to it”可知是得到了指导建议。useful advice表示“有用的建议”,工作人员会给新人提供建议来帮助他们适应工作。

根据被动语态“was touched”,动作发出者用by引出。
32.句意:这些海报告诉人们如何照顾好他们的宠物。
how to take good care of their pets表示“如何照顾好他们的宠物”,海报的作用是给人们说明照顾宠物的方法。
33.句意:我成功地完成了工作,完成后感到非常高兴。
这个词是副词,用来修饰动词did my job,表示“成功地、顺利地完成工作”,和后文的felt very happy形成呼应。
34.句意:我了解到每一个小小的善举都能产生巨大的影响。
短语make a big difference是固定搭配,意思是“产生很大的影响、带来很大的改变”,表示每一个小善举都能起到大作用。
35.句意:未来我将继续每个周末去收容所做志愿者。
continue to do sth.表示“继续做某事”,这里指“未来会继续每个周末来收容所做志愿者”,和前文的积极体验呼应。

“I don’t want to go to school, Mum. I feel a bit sick.” “If you have a school problem, just tell me. When I was a little girl, sometimes some boys called me terrible names.” Ollie looked up and asked, “Why did they do that?” “Some children could be unkind, especially if they don’t feel good about themselves. Is that your problem?” It took Ollie a long time to reply. “Yes, it is. They call me Mini-Me, just because I’m a bit small. And two boys often push me around... and it hurts.”
Mum asked, “Did you tell your teacher?” “No. That would make things worse.” “Bullying is wrong, Ollie. Maybe we can talk to your teacher together.” Ollie thought for a long time and finally decided to have a try.
Ollie and her mum met up with Ollie’s teacher after school, with nobody around. The teacher was glad that Ollie told her all about it.
The next day at school, Ollie’s teacher told the class, “A lot of schools have ‘No Bullying’ projects. I’d like to start one in our school.” Ollie’s teacher started their project: Speak Up! Stand Up!

Does the Dead Sea sound like a place where you’d like to go swimming? What do you expect to see in it? Do you believe there are dead things in the Dead Sea?
Lying in southwest Asia, the Dead Sea is about 80 kilometres long, about 18 kilometres wide and about 300 metres deep. It also has some other names, such as the Salt Sea, the East Sea, or the Sea of the Plain.
Even though it’s called the Dead Sea, it isn’t a sea at all! It’s a lake. Different from other lakes you might have seen, the Dead Sea is quite a salty lake. In fact, the Dead Sea is one of the saltiest bodies of water in the world. The Dead Sea is so salty that no fish or plants can live in it, though some microorganisms can still survive. That’s why it’s called the Dead Sea. And the Dead Sea stays quite salty because it gets only a little rain, and so little fresh water gets into the Dead Sea each year.
Don’t let the name of the Dead Sea make you feel scared. The Dead Sea is a surprising place to visit, and many people go to the Dead Sea each year on holiday. One interesting thing is that anyone can float in the Dead Sea. So if you walk on the beach of the Dead Sea on a warm day, perhaps you can see many people floating in its waters.

C.Almost no rain or fresh water enters the Dead Sea. D.Plants can live in the Dead Sea.

A.To move slowly in the air. B.To fly slowly in the air.

Li Ming is going to study English in New York. He has not been there before and he is quite interested in the great differences between American and Chinese cultures.
For one thing, Americans and Chinese are different in arranging (安排) a visit. In many places of China, people usually call on their neighbors unexpectedly. Americans prefer making an appointment in advance (提前). An unexpected visitor is regarded as impolite.
For another thing, their table manners are different. Chinese usually eat directly from the serving dishes. And during the meal, the host may keep putting food on the guest’s plate. An American, however, only eats from his own plate. He never picks up food for others unless he is asked to do so.
Moreover, they have different reactions when they hear compliments (赞美). For example, when a Chinese hostess is praised for her cooking skills, she will instantly deny that because Chinese are often modest. But an American is likely to accept it and say, “Oh, I’m glad you like it. I cooked it especially for you.”
At the beginning, it was hard for Li Ming to get used to things around him because of these cultural differences. But soon, he succeeded in adjusting to their ways of doing things. “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” He liked to say that when he was asked how he could get along in a new culture.

【答案】
Dear Peter,
I’m glad to hear from you. You asked me about my favorite book. Now let me tell you about it.
It is The Little Prince. It was written by a French writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. The book tells a story about a little prince who travels around different planets. He meets many interesting people. I like it because it teaches us about love and responsibility. The words are simple but meaningful. After reading it, I feel warm and hopeful.
Why not read it with me this weekend?
Yours,
Li Ming
