Pickled cucumbers and ice cream An American writer tried this and said it tasted very good! She said having pickled cucumbers with sweet and cold ice cream was quite interesting, but she added that she might not eat it very often. Chocolate and chips The mixture of sweet and salt isn’t new, but here’s a different way of mixing those two nice things. As a famous food magazine says, melt (融化) the chocolate first. Then, put salty chips into the melted chocolate. Finally, let them cool. You will get a great movie night snack. It’s sweet and salty. Milk cola This is a drink idea that some people talked about a few years ago, and many people can’t agree on it! Making it is simple: mix milk with cola. Some people pour cola into a glass first while others start with milk. A famous writer once said it was “not as bad as it sounds”, while another writer actually gave it five out of five. She said the colour didn’t look too good but it tasted great! 21. How did the American writer feel about pickled cucumbers with ice cream? A. She thought it was cold. B. She thought it was too sweet. C. She enjoyed it and made it often. D. She enjoyed it but wouldn’t eat it often. 22. What should people do first to make chocolate and chips? A. Cool the mixture. B. Melt the chocolate. C.

To have a try on people’s favourite foods. D. To introduce some unusual but delicious foods. B Do you want to see the Dead Sea? It is one of the most amazing natural wonders on earth. But why is it called the Dead Sea? Can anything live in it? Can people swim there? Let’s find out! The Dead Sea is not really a sea — it’s a large salt lake in the Middle East. It is the lowest place on land, about 400 metres below sea level, and lies between Israel and Jordan. A hot, dry desert surrounds the lake all year round. Because the weather is extremely hot, water evaporates (蒸发) quickly. The lake doesn’t get enough new water from rivers or rain, so the water level keeps dropping, leaving behind huge amounts of salt. As a result, the Dead Sea is much saltier than the ocean! Because it’s so salty, fish and other animals can’t survive there. Only a few special bacteria (细菌) can live in this environment. The salt also forms crystals (晶体) on the shore, making it hard for most animals to get close. You might wonder why people still visit this “dead” place. In fact, it’s very safe for humans. You can even go swimming there if you want. Although it’s hard to swim normally, all that salt in the water makes it much easier for people to float on the surface. It feels like magic! If you ever get a chance to visit, don’t miss this incredible place. 26. What can you learn about the Dead Sea from the passage? A. It’s near the Middle East. B. It’s far from the desert. C. It’s 11 kilometres wide. D. It’s the lowest point on land. 27. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. Who might come to the Dead Sea. B. How the Dead Sea gets so salty. C. Why fish can’t live in the Dead Sea. D. Why the Dead Sea is like a cloud of fog. 28. What does the underlined word “float” mean in Chinese? A. 逃跑 B. 漂浮 C. 挣脱 D. 陷入 29. What’s the structure of the passage? (Paragraph 1=①, Paragraph 2=②...) A. B. C. D. 30. Where is the passage most probably from? A. A geography textbook. B. A storybook for children. C. A fashion magazine. D. A cooking recipe book. C 配对阅读。左栏是五名同学当前的心情或计划，右栏是七首英文歌曲的简介。请为每位同学选择适合他/她心情或计划的歌曲。 ____31____ Alice is an exchange student. She has lived in China for three years.

The falls are about 1.7 kilometers wide and 108 meters high, making them the largest curtain of falling water on Earth. Local people call them “Mosi-oa-Tunya”, which means “the smoke that thunders”. From May to October every year, thousands of visitors come to see the beautiful rainbow that forms above the falls and feel the power of nature. However, this wonder is facing two serious threats. First, climate change has made droughts more common in recent years. Less rain means the flow (水流) of the Zambezi River, which feeds the falls, becomes weaker. Sometimes, parts of the falls even dry up completely. Second, extreme weather events like heavy storms and floods have also become more frequent. These storms erode (侵蚀) the land around the falls and put visitors in danger when they come too close to the edge. Protecting Victoria Falls is not just about keeping a tourist attraction beautiful. It is about protecting the local ecosystem and the lives of people who depend on the river. Understanding these problems is the first step to keeping this natural wonder safe for the future. 51. Where is Victoria Falls located? ______________________________ 52. When do many visitors come to see the rainbow above the falls? ______________________________ 53. Why does the flow of the Zambezi River become weaker? ______________________________ 54. How do heavy storms affect the land around Victoria Falls? ______________________________ 55.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者夜航纽约遭遇风暴，发现机上一小女孩异常镇定，后得知她是飞行员的女儿，因信任父亲而无畏的故事。 【11题详解】 句意：当我环顾机舱时，我看到几乎所有乘客都很担忧和害怕。 根据“When I looked…the plane”及作者身处机舱内观察周围乘客的语境，可知此处表示环顾四周，look around意为“环顾”，符合语境。look at表示看某物，look up表示向上看或查阅，look into表示调查或向里看，均不符合身处机舱内观察周围的语境。 【12题详解】 句意：未来似乎很可怕，许多人想知道他们是否能渡过这场风暴。 根据“if they would make it through the storm”可知，乘客们不确定能否幸存，心中充满疑虑，wondering意为“想知道/怀疑”，符合“uncertainty”的语境。dreaming和expecting通常含积极或中性预期，realizing表示已经知道，均不符。 【13题详解】 句意：然后，我突然看到前排坐着一个小女孩。 根据上文描述混乱场景，此处注意力转移到女孩身上，表示一种发现的过程，suddenly意为“突然”，体现注意力的转折，符合语境。probably表推测、luckily表幸运、certainly表肯定，均不符合叙事逻辑。 【14题详解】 句意：这场风暴对她来说似乎毫无影响。 根据下文她冷静读书的表现，可知风暴未影响她，mean nothing意为“无关紧要/没意义”，符合语境。something/anything/everything均表示有影响，与后文“calm”矛盾。 【15题详解】 句意：她时不时闭一会儿眼，好像在思考书中的故事，接着又继续读，她的眼睛里没有丝毫担心和恐惧。 根据“or fear”及前文乘客“worried”的对比，可知此处指负面情绪，worry意为“担心”，与“fear”并列，符合语境。pride“自豪”、anger“愤怒”、regret“后悔”与风暴中的恐惧语境不符。 【16题详解】 句意：当其他乘客都吓得半死的时候，这个孩子却既平静又无所畏惧。 根据“calm and…”及前文“no…fear”，可知此处指不害怕，unafraid符合语境。nervous“紧张的”与“calm”矛盾，excited“兴奋的”、tired“累的”未体现无畏的主题。 【17题详解】 句意：当飞机最终抵达纽约的时候，我毫不惊讶地发现所有乘客都急匆匆地往外赶。 根据“that all the passengers were hurrying”可知，这是作者落地后观察到的事实，find意为“发现”，符合语境。hear“听见”、say“说”、think“想”均不能准确表达亲眼所见的事实。 【18题详解】 句意：我停下脚步，和那个我已经观察了很久的女孩搭话。 根据上文“kept watching her”可知，作者一直在关注她，watched意为“观察/注视”，符合语境。helped“帮助”、imagined“想象”、hear“听见”与前文“watching”的动作不符。 【19题详解】 句意：我问她，暴风雨那么可怕，为什么她一点都不害怕。 根据下文女孩解释原因“My daddy is the…”，可知作者在询问原因，why意为“为什么”，引导原因状语或询问原因，符合语境。when“什么时候”、what“什么”、how“如何”均不询问原因。 【20题详解】 句意：我爸爸就是这架飞机的飞行员，他正带我回家呢。 根据“in control”及飞机语境，可知控制飞机的人是飞行员，pilot符合语境。driver“司机”、traveller“旅行者”、teacher“老师”与控制飞机无关。 三、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，每小题2分，共30分） A Some foods might look bad, but they might taste delicious. Let’s learn about them. Pickled cucumbers and ice cream An American writer tried this and said it tasted very good!

To have a try on people’s favourite foods. D. To introduce some unusual but delicious foods. 【答案】21. D 22. B 23. C 24. A 25. D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了几种这样的食物：酸黄瓜配冰淇淋、巧克力配薯片和牛奶可乐。 【21题详解】 第一个表格中提到“She said having pickled cucumbers with sweet and cold ice cream was quite interesting, but she added that she might not eat it very often.”，所以这位美国作家觉得这种搭配有趣，但不会经常吃。 【22题详解】 第二个表格中提到“melt the chocolate first.”，所以制作巧克力配薯片的第一步是融化巧克力。 【23题详解】 第三个表格中提到另一位作家说“the colour didn’t look too good but it tasted great”，所以牛奶可乐的颜色看起来不太好。 【24题详解】 题目要求匹配食物与描述，根据原文：“①Pickled cucumbers and ice cream”→“She said having pickled cucumbers with sweet and cold ice cream was quite interesting,”，对应选项c；“②Chocolate and chips”→“You will get a great movie night snack.”，对应选项b；“③Milk cola  ”→“while another writer actually gave it five out of five”，对应选项a。 【25题详解】 全文介绍了三种看起来奇怪但美味的食物搭配，所以作者的写作目的是介绍一些不寻常但美味的食物。 B Do you want to see the Dead Sea?

The falls are about 1.7 kilometers wide and 108 meters high, making them the largest curtain of falling water on Earth. Local people call them “Mosi-oa-Tunya”, which means “the smoke that thunders”. From May to October every year, thousands of visitors come to see the beautiful rainbow that forms above the falls and feel the power of nature. However, this wonder is facing two serious threats. First, climate change has made droughts more common in recent years. Less rain means the flow (水流) of the Zambezi River, which feeds the falls, becomes weaker. Sometimes, parts of the falls even dry up completely. Second, extreme weather events like heavy storms and floods have also become more frequent. These storms erode (侵蚀) the land around the falls and put visitors in danger when they come too close to the edge. Protecting Victoria Falls is not just about keeping a tourist attraction beautiful. It is about protecting the local ecosystem and the lives of people who depend on the river. Understanding these problems is the first step to keeping this natural wonder safe for the future. 51.
