These photos bring him joy and happiness once more. For Yang, one of the long-expected activities during the Spring Festival is to take photos with family members.

Yang became a photographer in the late 1950s. With his camera, Yang recorded the great changes of his hometown over time. “I had a painful childhood, but I got a chance to be a photographer after the founding (成立) of the People’s Republic of China,” Yang told Beijing Review. “I want to record, in the form of photographs, the local customs, the scenes and people's brave spirit of fighting against the hard conditions here in my hometown.” “I used to take pictures of everyone else, but seldom turned my camera at my family members ,” Yang said. “ My grandson gave me the idea to record the growth and development of my own family. ” Taking family photos then became a tradition for Yang’s family. Though now some of his grandchildren are working and living in other cities, they try their best to return home during the Spring Festival and prepare for the special moment. Most of his photos were once displayed (陈列) in Yinchuan to show the development of the area over the past sixty years. 41.

She had moved into a nursing home and didn’t have room for extra things. She insisted that she didn’t need any gift. Finally, I came up with an idea. In her birthday card, I sent her a gift certificate (礼券) for “A letter a week for the next year!” It was a big promise. I’ve never been much of a letter writer but now I was living far from home, and should be able to find plenty of news. Growing up just a mile from my grandparents, we’d always been close. I knew that she’d love to hear what was going on in my life. The letter gift certificate was a big hit. She got fifty-two letters that first year. All showed her that I was thinking of her regularly. As her next birthday rolled around, she asked for another letter gift certificate. In fact, for nine and a half years I had written to her. But she was hardly able to write back. So much happened during these years! At first, I wrote about the cold Michigan winters. Then I wrote about my pregnancy (怀孕). During the kids’ preschool years, I shared every funny thing they did and said, and as they grew they started adding “picture letters” to the envelope. Once I flew home to visit Grandma and found that all the staff in the nursing home knew the details of my life, as they often read letters to her. My last letter arrived the day after her death. I never missed a letter and I felt I had given her the best gift I could. What I hadn’t counted on was how her gift would come full circle to me. Months later, while going through her things, my dad found a box full of letters from me. Those letters are a journal of my life, filled with moments and pictures I had completely forgotten. But Grandma saved those memories for me in my letters. Life really does fly by. Loved ones come and go. But sometimes our gifts to others come back to us in unexpected ways. This is one of those times. 51. The writer sent Grandma a gift certificate because ________. A. She had no other gift to give her grandma. B. She didn’t have enough money to buy a gift. C. She wanted Grandma to choose her favourite gift herself. D. There wasn’t enough room for bigger gifts in the nursing home. 52. The underlined phrase “a big hit” probably means ________. A. a big failure B. a big success C. a bright future D. a satisfying letter 53. From the passage, we can infer that the writer ________. A. could always hear from Grandma B. might live in Michigan after getting married C. was afraid to write letters when she was a kid D. felt very regretful after Grandma passed away 54. Which of the following is TRUE ? A. Grandma died when she was about ninety years old. B. The writer’s dad sent Grandma a box to keep the letters. C. The writer was brought up by Grandma so they were very close. D. Later the kids wrote the letters to Grandma instead of the writer. 55. What’s the best title of the passage ? A. Common gifts in life. B. The details of my life. C. The saved memories. D. My grandma and I. 【答案】51. D 52. B 53. B 54. A 55. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述作者在奶奶八十大寿时承诺一年每周写一封信，坚持近十年。这份特殊礼物温暖了奶奶，多年后信件也成为留存自身回忆的珍贵宝藏。 【51题详解】 根据第一段第二句“She had moved into a nursing home and didn’t have room for extra things.”和第二段“Finally, I came up with an idea...I sent her a gift certificate (礼券) for...”，作者送礼券是因为“养老院没有足够空间存放更大的礼物”。 【52题详解】 第二段作者送出了礼券，第三段写道“The letter gift certificate was a big hit. She got fifty-two letters that first year...As her next birthday rolled around, she asked for another letter gift certificate.”，第一年她收到了52封信，下一个生日时，她又要求再要一个信件礼券，说明这个礼物很受欢迎，很成功。所以a big hit意为“很成功、很受欢迎”。 【53题详解】 根据第四段“At first, I wrote about the cold Michigan winters. Then I wrote about my pregnancy (怀孕).”，起初，我写密歇根州寒冷的冬天，然后我写到了我的怀孕。可推断，作者在“结婚怀孕后可能居住在密歇根州”。 【54题详解】 根据第一段“Grandma’s eightieth birthday was near (奶奶的八十岁生日快到了)” 和第三段“In fact, for nine and a half years I had written to her. (事实上，我给她写了九年半的信)”以及第五段“My last letter arrived the day after her death. (最后一封信是在她去世后的第二天到的)”可知，奶奶去世时大约是80+9.5≈90 岁。 【55题详解】 文章主要讲述了作者给奶奶写信作为礼物，奶奶去世后，作者发现奶奶保存了所有的信，这些信保存了作者遗忘的生活瞬间和记忆。根据第六段最后一句“But Grandma saved those memories for me in my letters.”可知，C项“The saved memories (被保存的记忆)”最能概括文章主旨。 C Many new things are invented each year. Interestingly, some inventions are named after the people who invented them, making the inventions and inventors easier to be remembered. The bowler hat is named after London hat-makers Thomas and William Bowler. The brothers received an order from Edward Coke, the younger brother of the 2nd Earl of Leicester. They were asked to design a hat for Coke’s gamekeepers to protect their heads from branches while on horseback. Later, the stylish hat became popular in Europe and the United States. Another invention that is named after its inventor is Braille, a writing system used by blind people. French educator Louis Braille developed a new system of reading and writing after learning the cryptography of French Captain Charles Barbier during the war. The captain had come up with a code of dots on paper that allowed soldiers to communicate in the dark. The diesel engine is also named after its inventor—German engineer Rudolf Diesel. After a few dangerous tests, he invented a new and more efficient engine in 1892 and the engine was later called the diesel engine. The engines were widely used in buses, trucks, trains and ships, and Rudolf Diesel became a millionaire. 56. How many inventions are mentioned in the passage ? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 57. What does the underlined word “their” refer to ? A. Edward Coke’s. B. The 2nd Earl of Leicester’s. C. Edward Coke’s gamekeepers’. D. Thomas and William Bowler’s. 58. How did Louis Braille invent Braille ? A. He invented Braille based on the cryptography of a French captain. B. He came up with Braille when he communicated with soldiers in the dark. C. He was asked to invent a writing system for blind people by Charles Barbier. D. He studied blind people in the university and invented a writing system for them. 59. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE ? A. Rudolf Diesel was a German engineer. B. The diesel engine was quite efficient. C. Diesel engines were mainly used on airplanes and rockets. D. Rudolf Diesel carried out some dangerous tests before he invented the diesel engine. 60. What is the passage mainly about ? A. Several inventions that made their inventors rich. B. Several inventions that are named after their inventors. C. Several inventions that were invented by teen inventors. D. Several inventions that were invented by blind inventors. 【答案】56. B 57. C 58. A 59. C 60. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了数个以发明者名字命名的发明，举例说明了部分发明会以发明者命名来方便人们记住发明与发明者这一情况。 【56题详解】 通读全文可知，文章第二段提到了“The bowler hat”（圆顶礼帽），第三段提到了“Braille”（盲文），第四段提到了“The diesel engine”（柴油发动机），共三项发明。 【57题详解】 根据第二段划线词所在句“design a hat for Coke's gamekeepers to protect their heads”（为 Coke 的猎场看守人设计帽子以保护他们的头部）可知，“their”指代的是前面的“Coke's gamekeepers”。 【58题详解】 根据第三段“French educator Louis Braille developed a new system... after learning the cryptography of French Captain Charles Barbier”可知，Louis Braille 是在学习了法国上尉的密码术后发明了盲文。 【59题详解】 根据最后一段“The engines were widely used in buses, trucks, trains and ships”可知，柴油发动机广泛用于公共汽车、卡车、火车和轮船，文中并未提及飞机和火箭。因此C项表述错误。 【60题详解】 文章第一段引出主题“some inventions are named after the people who invented them”（有些发明是以发明者的名字命名的），随后列举了三个具体例子。因此文章主要介绍了几项以发明者名字命名的发明。 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题（三大题，共计40分） 四、语法填空（每小题1分，共10分） 阅读下面的短文，在空白处填入适当的单词或用括号中所给单词的正确形式填空。每空1个单词。 We can’t remember clearly since when we started to take our mobiles to the dinner table.

I was only four then, so I do not remember what it was like in Britain. But my mum says that it rained a lot. First, we lived in Sydney. Our garden was beautiful. There were lots of trees with yellow flowers. I remember the picnics that we had there. My mum made salads with cold beef, and we also ate sweet Australian grapes. The big problem with the picnics was the ants. As soon as we started to eat, they arrived. We all tried to brush them off, but it was no good. They got everywhere. Ants were a problem at the next place that we lived in too. This time it was in central Australia. It was very hot there, and there were a lot of flies. Also, my mum was always worried about the sun and made us stay inside a lot. We did not stay there very long. I was ten when we moved back to Sydney, and we are still here. I like the place that we live in now. 虽然我不喜欢蚂蚁，但我认为它们比苍蝇好！ 71. 从文中找出与下面所给句子意思相同的句子。 It has been ten years since my family moved from Britain to Australia. ___________________________________________ 72.

As soon as we started to eat, they arrived.”可知，划线词“they”指代的是前文提到的蚂蚁。 【73题详解】 “We all tried to brush them off, but it was no good.”翻译为：我们都试图摆脱它们，但是没有用。“We all”对应“我们都”，“tried to”对应“试图”，“brush them off”对应“摆脱他们”，“but”对应“但是”，“it was no good”对应“毫无用处”。 【74题详解】 由文中第四段“Also, my mum was always worried about the sun and made us stay inside a lot.”可知，妈妈让他们待在屋里是因为担心强烈的阳光。 【75题详解】 “虽然我不喜欢蚂蚁，但我认为它们比苍蝇好！”译为Although I do not like ants, I think they are better than flies!。“虽然”用连词 “Although”引导让步状语从句；“我不喜欢蚂蚁”译为“I do not like ants”；“我认为”译为“I think”；“比……好”用形容词比较级“better than”构成比较结构；“苍蝇”译为“flies”。 六、书面表达（满分20分） 76. 请你根据下面的提示就本次摄影比赛的结果写一篇颁奖词。 1. 我非常高兴地宣读此次摄影比赛的获胜者。我们对本年度的比赛感到非常满意。 2. 获得“自然”主题奖的是15岁的李伟。他的照片展示了山上不同的色彩。 3. 在“城市与人”这组照片中，我们最喜欢的照片是由赵敏拍摄的。那是一个穿着衬衫和裙子的漂亮女孩，她在保护她的书免遭阵雨淋湿。 4. 音乐组最好的照片是何忠拍的。 5. 一组展示北京和英国剑桥的照片赢得了“故土与他乡”这一主题的奖项。 6. 祝贺我们的获奖者，感谢所有的参与者！ 要求： 1. 要点齐全、语句通顺；可适当增加内容。 2. 卷面整洁，词数不少于80词。 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I am delighted to announce the winners of our photo competition.

Though now some of his grandchildren are working and living in other cities, they try their best to return home during the Spring Festival and prepare for the special moment.

She insisted that she didn’t need any gift. Finally, I came up with an idea. In her birthday card, I sent her a gift certificate (礼券) for “A letter a week for the next year!” It was a big promise. I’ve never been much of a letter writer but now I was living far from home, and should be able to find plenty of news. Growing up just a mile from my grandparents, we’d always been close. I knew that she’d love to hear what was going on in my life. The letter gift certificate was a big hit. She got fifty-two letters that first year. All showed her that I was thinking of her regularly. As her next birthday rolled around, she asked for another letter gift certificate. In fact, for nine and a half years I had written to her. But she was hardly able to write back. So much happened during these years! At first, I wrote about the cold Michigan winters. Then I wrote about my pregnancy (怀孕). During the kids’ preschool years, I shared every funny thing they did and said, and as they grew they started adding “picture letters” to the envelope. Once I flew home to visit Grandma and found that all the staff in the nursing home knew the details of my life, as they often read letters to her. My last letter arrived the day after her death. I never missed a letter and I felt I had given her the best gift I could. What I hadn’t counted on was how her gift would come full circle to me. Months later, while going through her things, my dad found a box full of letters from me. Those letters are a journal of my life, filled with moments and pictures I had completely forgotten. But Grandma saved those memories for me in my letters. Life really does fly by. Loved ones come and go. But sometimes our gifts to others come back to us in unexpected ways. This is one of those times. 51. The writer sent Grandma a gift certificate because ________. A. She had no other gift to give her grandma. B. She didn’t have enough money to buy a gift. C. She wanted Grandma to choose her favourite gift herself. D. There wasn’t enough room for bigger gifts in the nursing home. 52. The underlined phrase “a big hit” probably means ________. A. a big failure B. a big success C. a bright future D. a satisfying letter 53. From the passage, we can infer that the writer ________. A. could always hear from Grandma B. might live in Michigan after getting married C. was afraid to write letters when she was a kid D. felt very regretful after Grandma passed away 54. Which of the following is TRUE ? A. Grandma died when she was about ninety years old. B. The writer’s dad sent Grandma a box to keep the letters. C. The writer was brought up by Grandma so they were very close. D. Later the kids wrote the letters to Grandma instead of the writer. 55. What’s the best title of the passage ? A. Common gifts in life. B. The details of my life. C. The saved memories. D. My grandma and I. C Many new things are invented each year. Interestingly, some inventions are named after the people who invented them, making the inventions and inventors easier to be remembered. The bowler hat is named after London hat-makers Thomas and William Bowler. The brothers received an order from Edward Coke, the younger brother of the 2nd Earl of Leicester. They were asked to design a hat for Coke’s gamekeepers to protect their heads from branches while on horseback. Later, the stylish hat became popular in Europe and the United States. Another invention that is named after its inventor is Braille, a writing system used by blind people. French educator Louis Braille developed a new system of reading and writing after learning the cryptography of French Captain Charles Barbier during the war. The captain had come up with a code of dots on paper that allowed soldiers to communicate in the dark. The diesel engine is also named after its inventor—German engineer Rudolf Diesel. After a few dangerous tests, he invented a new and more efficient engine in 1892 and the engine was later called the diesel engine. The engines were widely used in buses, trucks, trains and ships, and Rudolf Diesel became a millionaire. 56. How many inventions are mentioned in the passage ? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 57. What does the underlined word “their” refer to ? A. Edward Coke’s. B. The 2nd Earl of Leicester’s. C. Edward Coke’s gamekeepers’. D. Thomas and William Bowler’s. 58.

I was only four then, so I do not remember what it was like in Britain. But my mum says that it rained a lot. First, we lived in Sydney. Our garden was beautiful. There were lots of trees with yellow flowers. I remember the picnics that we had there. My mum made salads with cold beef, and we also ate sweet Australian grapes. The big problem with the picnics was the ants. As soon as we started to eat, they arrived. We all tried to brush them off, but it was no good. They got everywhere. Ants were a problem at the next place that we lived in too. This time it was in central Australia. It was very hot there, and there were a lot of flies. Also, my mum was always worried about the sun and made us stay inside a lot. We did not stay there very long. I was ten when we moved back to Sydney, and we are still here.
