B 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述从小热爱绘画的Tom遭遇车祸重伤右手，一度放弃梦想，后受残疾艺术家鼓舞改用左手坚持作画，最终作品参展、收获赞誉的故事。 【11题详解】 句意：他几乎把所有空闲时间都用来画画，梦想成为一名伟大的画家。 空后为time，固定搭配spare time表示“空闲时间”；busy“忙碌的”、early“早的”、late“晚的”均无法搭配构成符合语境的短语。 【12题详解】 句意：他几乎把所有空闲时间都用来画画，梦想成为一名伟大的画家。 前文loved painting、drawing提示职业和绘画相关，painter“画家”；singer“歌手”、cook“厨师”、driver“司机”均和画画无关。 【13题详解】 句意：他喜欢描绘优美的风景，他的作品经常在学校绘画比赛中获奖。 won prizes意为获奖，对应场景为drawing competitions绘画比赛；tests“测试”、shows“演出”、choices“选择”均不符合“获奖”语境。 【14题详解】 句意：但在他七年级时，一场可怕的车祸改变了他的人生。 后文右手受伤不能握画笔，说明车祸彻底改变他原本画画的人生；saved“拯救”、ended“终结”、improved“改善”逻辑不符。 【15题详解】 句意：他的右手伤得很重。 后文医生说他再也不能用右手握画笔，说明伤势严重，badly修饰hurt表示“严重受伤”；greatly“极大地”、slowly“缓慢地”、easily“轻易地”均不修饰受伤程度。 【16题详解】 句意：Tom感到十分绝望，放弃了自己的梦想。 手重伤不能画画，他放弃梦想，对应情绪hopeless绝望的；hopeful“充满希望的”、careless“粗心的”、careful“细心的”均不符合低落心境。 【17题详解】 句意：一天，Tom的美术老师给他看残疾艺术家们的画作。 固定搭配show sb. sth.表示“给某人展示某物”；visited“拜访”、taught“教授”、thanked“感谢”均不匹配“展示画作”动作。 【18题详解】 句意：即使他们身处困境，也没有放弃。 空前后为让步逻辑，even though引导让步状语从句，意为“即使”；so that“以便”、but also“而且”、because of“因为”均无法表达让步关系。 【19题详解】 句意：受到这些艺术家的鼓舞，Tom决定继续练习。 carry on practising意为坚持、继续练习；put off“推迟”、give out“分发”、set up“建立”均和重拾画画的语境相反。 【20题详解】 句意：一开始，这件事十分困难。 他改用左手画画，只能画简单线条，说明初期很难；easy“简单的”、funny“有趣的”、boring“无聊的”均不符合上手困难的语境。 【21题详解】 句意：但他每天练习好几个小时，从未放弃。 前文说他坚持每日长时间练习，对应never gave up从未放弃；grew up“长大”、woke up“醒来”、stood up“起立”均和坚持练习无关。 【22题详解】 句意：对他来说创作和修改作品变得容易多了。 前文提到他学会电脑数字绘画工具，对比左手手绘，数码工具操作更简单；harder“更难”、slower“更慢”、worse“更糟”逻辑相反。 【23题详解】 句意：去年，他的作品在当地一场美术展展出。 作品在展览上被展出，用shown“show的过去分词”；told“告知”、said“说”、written“写”均不能搭配art exhibition美术展。 【24题详解】 句意：他凭借勇敢面对困难的精神赢得了许多人的称赞。 win one’s praise意为赢得某人的赞扬；price“价格”、prize“奖品”、award“奖项”均不能和people’s搭配表达众人的认可。 【25题详解】 句意：他的故事激励我们坚守自己的梦想。 Tom永不放弃的经历激励他人坚持梦想，encourages鼓励、激励；allows“允许”、orders“命令”、needs“需要”均不符合故事带来的正向作用。 四、阅读理解（共两节，满分35分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下列短文，从短文后每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Uses: As a clean energy, solar energy can be used to produce electricity for homes and factories.

Of course, people think gifts are always welcome, but there is no need to exchange gifts at any time. They exchange gifts only among good friends. Usually when a close friend invites you to dinner, you needn’t bring a gift except on special occasions, for example, when you are going to be a weekend guest. If you wish to bring something, the gifts should always be small, simple and cheap. You may bring some sweets or some small toys for the children. You may bring a book, some flowers, or a bottle of wine for the host. If you want to make your gifts special, you can choose to bring some Chinese tea, Chinese paintings, Chinese paper cuts or other things like that, or you can cook a Chinese dish and bring it with you. Westerners prefer to open a gift at once and admire it. They would thank you and make some comments about the gift’s beauty so that you know they like your gift very much. 29. Among whom do Westerners usually exchange gifts? A. Strangers. B. Good friends. C. Colleagues. D. Neighbors. 30. What should the gifts be like if you wish to bring something? A. Small, simple and expensive. B. Big, beautiful and expensive. C. Big, simple and expensive. D. Small, simple and cheap. 31. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A.

Westerners always give expensive gifts. B. You must bring a gift when invited to dinner. C. Westerners like to show their love for the gift directly. D. Chinese gifts are never popular in Western countries. 【答案】29. B 30. D 31. B 32. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍西方赠送礼物的文化习俗，包含送礼对象、做客适宜携带的礼品以及西方人拆礼物的习惯。 【29题详解】 根据原文第一段“They exchange gifts only among good friends.”，可知西方人通常只在好友之间互赠礼物。 【30题详解】 根据原文第二段“the gifts should always be small, simple and cheap.”，可知如果想带礼物，礼物要小巧、简约、平价。 【31题详解】 第二段列举了做客时可以带给主人、孩子的各类礼品，也推荐了有特色的中式礼品，核心讲解去西方朋友家可以带什么礼物。 【32题详解】 根据原文第三段“Westerners prefer to open a gift at once and admire it. They would thank you and make some comments about the gift’s beauty”，能看出西方人会直接表达对礼物的喜爱，对应选项C；A、B、D均与原文内容不符。 C We know that volunteering is a chance to serve others and give back to the community, but we might not see how it influences us and our lives. I would like to say that volunteering can be more than just a duty, but it is, in fact, good for you. Here are the reasons. You will learn about yourself. You will experience challenges and face hard problems when serving the community. In a situation that is new to you, it is possible for you to learn what you like and dislike about a certain job. You may also learn about your ability and what you need to improve. You will learn new skills. The great news about volunteering is that, because they don’t need to pay you, most places will take just anyone! By giving some of your time, you are able to learn new skills that may otherwise take money and time to learn. Volunteering is a great way to perfect the skills you have and learn something new. You will make more friends. When you decide to volunteer for something you are interested in, the people around you will probably share the same interest. As all the volunteers work towards a common goal, you will start to build a unique relationship that might not be found anywhere else. In short, volunteering brings us endless benefits. It helps us know ourselves better, develop useful skills and build true friendships. It makes us more responsible and kind. All in all, volunteering is a meaningful experience that can make our lives brighter and more valuable. 33. Which is NOT a benefit of volunteering mentioned in the passage? A. Learning new skills. B. Making more friends. C. Making a lot of money. D. Knowing yourself better. 34. The underlined word “perfect” in Paragraph 3 means ________. A. improve B. forget C. change D. show 35. What’s the structure of the passage? A. ①/②③④/⑤ B. ①②③/④/⑤ C. ①/②/③④⑤ D. ①②/③④/⑤ 36. What can we infer from the passage? A. Volunteering is only for young people. B. Volunteers never face difficulties. C. You must work full-time as a volunteer. D. Volunteering helps you grow personally. 【答案】33. C 34. A 35. A 36. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了志愿服务对个人的益处，包括了解自己、学习技能、结交朋友等，并总结了志愿服务的意义。 【33题详解】 第二段提到“You will learn about yourself.”，对应D；第三段提到“You will learn new skills.”，对应A；第四段提到“You will make more friends.”，对应B，这三项均为文中提到的益处。第三段提到“because they don’t need to pay you”，说明志愿服务不能赚钱，因此C选项“Making much money”不是益处。 【34题详解】 根据第三段语境“Volunteering is a great way to perfect the skills you have and learn something new.”可知，志愿服务是完善已有技能和学习新技能的好方法。此处“perfect”意为“使完美、改善”，与improve意思相近。 【35题详解】 第一段引出话题（志愿服务对你有好处）；第二、三、四段分别从了解自己、学习技能、结交朋友三个方面阐述理由；第五段总结全文。因此结构为①/②③④/⑤。 【36题详解】 文中未提及年龄限制，排除A；B项与第二段“face hard problems”矛盾，可排除；文中未提及必须全职，排除C；根据全文内容及最后一段“It helps us know ourselves better... make our life brighter and more valuable.”可知，志愿服务有助于个人成长，因此选D。 D I am Jim Hawkins. My story began many years ago when my father worked at the Admiral Benbow inn. One day a tall man with a scar (伤疤) on his face arrived. He opened the door of the inn, singing the song I know so well: “Fifteen men on the dead man’s chest—Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!” “A glass of rum,” he said when he came inside. “This is a pleasant inn,” he said. “Do you have many customers?” “Not many,” my father answered. “Well, this is the place for me. You can call me ‘captain’,” he said. Then he asked a man to carry his large sailor’s chest (水兵的箱子) to his room. “I’m a simple man,” he told my father. “Rum and bacon (培根) and eggs is all I want. Here are four gold coins to start. Tell me when I have to pay more.” During the day he went to the cliffs (悬崖) with his telescope and in the evening he sat by the fire drinking rum and water. He asked about sailors every day. We soon understood that he wanted to keep away from them. When a sailor visited the inn, the captain was always very quiet. One day he asked me, “If you see a sailor with one leg, tell me as soon as he arrives.” When the captain drank too much rum, he sang sea songs and told the other customers terrible stories about his violent (暴力的) life at sea. He stayed month after month, but he didn’t give my father any more money. My poor father was too frightened to ask. Everyone was frightened of the captain and his stories. The only person who was not afraid of him was the local doctor and magistrate (治安法官), Dr. Livesey. “If you keep drinking rum like that, you will very soon be dead,” he warned the captain. Adapted from Treasure Island 37. Where did Jim’s father work? A. At the Admiral Benbow inn. B. At a restaurant in the city center. C. On a sailing ship for trade. D. At a local hospital as a doctor. 38. What can we infer from the captain’s daily behavior? A. He was waiting for a one-legged sailor. B. He was trying to avoid other sailors. C. He wanted to make friends with the customers. D. He planned to run the inn with Jim’s father. 39. Put the following events into the correct order according to time: ①The captain asked Jim to watch for a one-legged sailor. ②The captain arrived at the Admiral Benbow inn. ③Dr. Livesey warned the captain about drinking too much rum. ④The captain paid four gold coins to Jim’s father. A. ②①④③ B. ②④①③ C. ①②③④ D. ④②①③ 40. Why didn’t Jim’s father ask the captain for more money? A. The captain had already paid enough for a year. B. The captain promised to pay later with treasure. C. Jim’s father was afraid of the captain. D. Jim’s father wanted to make the captain happy. 【答案】37. A 38. B 39. B 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文节选自《金银岛》。主要讲述了吉姆回忆多年前，一位脸上带有伤疤的船长来到自家客栈投宿。他预先支付了少量金币，平日里总是刻意躲避其他水手，还叮嘱吉姆帮忙留意一名独腿水手；他时常在酒后讲述自己的充满暴力的海上生涯，可在客栈长住之后，便不再续付住宿费。 【37题详解】 第一段说明了吉姆父亲的工作地点：“My story began many years ago when my father worked at the Admiral Benbow inn”，吉姆的父亲在Admiral Benbow客栈工作。 【38题详解】 第六段点明了船长的行为动机：“He asked about sailors every day. We soon understood that he wanted to keep away from them”，船长每天的行为表明他想避开其他水手。 【39题详解】 根据文章内容梳理时间线：②船长到达客栈 (第一段“One day a tall man... arrived”)；④船长支付了四枚金币 (第五段“Here are four gold coins to start”)；①船长让吉姆留意独腿水手 (第六段 “One day he asked me, ‘If you see a sailor with one leg, tell me as soon as he arrives.’ ”)；③Livesey医生警告船长喝太多朗姆酒会致命 (最后一段，发生在船长住了几个月后)，因此正确顺序为②④①③。 【40题详解】 倒数第二段点明原因：“My poor father was too frightened to ask.”，吉姆父亲不敢要钱是因为他害怕船长。 第二节（共5小题；每小题1分，共计5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many people love travelling to different countries, but if you plan to go abroad, you should know how to behave in different situations around the world. ____41____ When it comes to meeting people for the first time, you should never shake hands in the doorway in Russia.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍出国旅行需要了解各国不同礼仪，分别讲解不同国家见面问候、交谈距离、餐桌相关的风俗禁忌，最后呼吁人们尊重当地习俗。 【41题详解】 后文依次介绍俄罗斯、日本初次见面的礼仪，C项“Different countries have different greeting customs”总起本段，点明各国问候习俗不同，引出下文事例。 【42题详解】 前文提到日本人见面喜欢交换名片，B项“You should read the card carefully”说明拿到名片要仔细阅读，后文“not just put it in your pocket”与之形成对比，衔接通顺。 【43题详解】 前文说明中国人交谈时站得很近，D项“but you need to give people more personal space in the USA”用but转折，对比美国需要更多个人空间，形成不同国家习惯对比。 【44题详解】 本段介绍印度、俄罗斯餐桌禁忌，E项“don’t leave empty bottles on the dinner table in Russia”补充俄罗斯餐桌忌讳，后文解释该行为被认为不吉利。 【45题详解】 前文列举各国繁多的礼仪差异，A项“you should respect the local customs”总结全文，提出无论去往何处都要尊重当地风俗，收束全文。 第二卷（非选择题，共60分） 五、词汇运用（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 根据句意及所给中文提示、首字母或英文解释，写出所缺单词，每空限填一词。 46.

I had been feeling tired and unhealthy for months, and I knew something had to change. My doctor told me that I was at risk of developing serious health problems if I continued my bad habits. The first thing I did was to change my diet. I once ate a lot of fast food and sugary snacks, but I started cooking fresh meals at home. I included more vegetables, fruits, and whole grains in my meals. At first, I missed my old eating habits, but gradually I began to enjoy the new flavors. Next, I started exercising frequently. I began with a 15-minute walk every day. Slowly, I increased it to 30 minutes, and then I started jogging. Now, I run about five kilometers three times a week. The most difficult part was giving up my late-night habits. I once stayed up late. Now I go to bed early. I feel like a different person. I have more energy, my mood improved greatly, and I no longer get sick as often as before. The journey wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. I learned that small changes can lead to big results.

It is also used to heat water and warm houses. Besides, it powers street lights and helps with farm work. The way to get it: Solar energy is a clean and useful new energy. We collect solar energy with solar panels. These panels are usually fixed on house roofs or cars. They catch sunlight and turn it into useful energy. Benefits: Solar energy has two main advantages. First, it produces no pollution, so it is environmentally friendly. Second, after fixing solar panels, sunlight costs nothing, which helps us save money. 26. We can get solar energy with ________. A. wind wheels B. water machines C. solar panels D. fire coal 27. Which is NOT mentioned as a use of solar energy in the text? A. Producing electricity for homes. B. Heating water for daily use. C.

Of course, people think gifts are always welcome, but there is no need to exchange gifts at any time. They exchange gifts only among good friends. Usually when a close friend invites you to dinner, you needn’t bring a gift except on special occasions, for example, when you are going to be a weekend guest. If you wish to bring something, the gifts should always be small, simple and cheap. You may bring some sweets or some small toys for the children. You may bring a book, some flowers, or a bottle of wine for the host. If you want to make your gifts special, you can choose to bring some Chinese tea, Chinese paintings, Chinese paper cuts or other things like that, or you can cook a Chinese dish and bring it with you. Westerners prefer to open a gift at once and admire it. They would thank you and make some comments about the gift’s beauty so that you know they like your gift very much. 29. Among whom do Westerners usually exchange gifts? A. Strangers. B. Good friends. C. Colleagues. D. Neighbors. 30. What should the gifts be like if you wish to bring something? A. Small, simple and expensive. B. Big, beautiful and expensive. C. Big, simple and expensive. D. Small, simple and cheap. 31. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. When to give gifts in western countries. B. What to bring to western friends. C. How to open gifts properly. D. Where to buy special gifts. 32. What can we learn from the passage? A. Westerners always give expensive gifts. B. You must bring a gift when invited to dinner. C. Westerners like to show their love for the gift directly. D. Chinese gifts are never popular in Western countries. C We know that volunteering is a chance to serve others and give back to the community, but we might not see how it influences us and our lives. I would like to say that volunteering can be more than just a duty, but it is, in fact, good for you. Here are the reasons. You will learn about yourself. You will experience challenges and face hard problems when serving the community. In a situation that is new to you, it is possible for you to learn what you like and dislike about a certain job. You may also learn about your ability and what you need to improve. You will learn new skills. The great news about volunteering is that, because they don’t need to pay you, most places will take just anyone! By giving some of your time, you are able to learn new skills that may otherwise take money and time to learn. Volunteering is a great way to perfect the skills you have and learn something new. You will make more friends. When you decide to volunteer for something you are interested in, the people around you will probably share the same interest. As all the volunteers work towards a common goal, you will start to build a unique relationship that might not be found anywhere else. In short, volunteering brings us endless benefits. It helps us know ourselves better, develop useful skills and build true friendships. It makes us more responsible and kind. All in all, volunteering is a meaningful experience that can make our lives brighter and more valuable. 33. Which is NOT a benefit of volunteering mentioned in the passage? A. Learning new skills. B. Making more friends. C. Making a lot of money. D. Knowing yourself better. 34. The underlined word “perfect” in Paragraph 3 means ________. A. improve B. forget C. change D. show 35. What’s the structure of the passage? A. ①/②③④/⑤ B. ①②③/④/⑤ C. ①/②/③④⑤ D. ①②/③④/⑤ 36. What can we infer from the passage? A. Volunteering is only for young people. B. Volunteers never face difficulties. C. You must work full-time as a volunteer. D. Volunteering helps you grow personally. D I am Jim Hawkins. My story began many years ago when my father worked at the Admiral Benbow inn. One day a tall man with a scar (伤疤) on his face arrived. He opened the door of the inn, singing the song I know so well: “Fifteen men on the dead man’s chest—Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!” “A glass of rum,” he said when he came inside. “This is a pleasant inn,” he said. “Do you have many customers?” “Not many,” my father answered. “Well, this is the place for me. You can call me ‘captain’,” he said. Then he asked a man to carry his large sailor’s chest (水兵的箱子) to his room. “I’m a simple man,” he told my father. “Rum and bacon (培根) and eggs is all I want. Here are four gold coins to start. Tell me when I have to pay more.” During the day he went to the cliffs (悬崖) with his telescope and in the evening he sat by the fire drinking rum and water. He asked about sailors every day. We soon understood that he wanted to keep away from them. When a sailor visited the inn, the captain was always very quiet. One day he asked me, “If you see a sailor with one leg, tell me as soon as he arrives.” When the captain drank too much rum, he sang sea songs and told the other customers terrible stories about his violent (暴力的) life at sea. He stayed month after month, but he didn’t give my father any more money. My poor father was too frightened to ask. Everyone was frightened of the captain and his stories. The only person who was not afraid of him was the local doctor and magistrate (治安法官), Dr. Livesey. “If you keep drinking rum like that, you will very soon be dead,” he warned the captain. Adapted from Treasure Island 37. Where did Jim’s father work? A. At the Admiral Benbow inn. B. At a restaurant in the city center. C. On a sailing ship for trade. D. At a local hospital as a doctor. 38. What can we infer from the captain’s daily behavior? A. He was waiting for a one-legged sailor. B. He was trying to avoid other sailors. C. He wanted to make friends with the customers. D. He planned to run the inn with Jim’s father. 39. Put the following events into the correct order according to time: ①The captain asked Jim to watch for a one-legged sailor. ②The captain arrived at the Admiral Benbow inn. ③Dr. Livesey warned the captain about drinking too much rum. ④The captain paid four gold coins to Jim’s father. A. ②①④③ B. ②④①③ C. ①②③④ D. ④②①③ 40. Why didn’t Jim’s father ask the captain for more money? A. The captain had already paid enough for a year. B. The captain promised to pay later with treasure. C. Jim’s father was afraid of the captain. D. Jim’s father wanted to make the captain happy. 第二节（共5小题；每小题1分，共计5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many people love travelling to different countries, but if you plan to go abroad, you should know how to behave in different situations around the world. ____41____ When it comes to meeting people for the first time, you should never shake hands in the doorway in Russia.

I had been feeling tired and unhealthy for months, and I knew something had to change. My doctor told me that I was at risk of developing serious health problems if I continued my bad habits. The first thing I did was to change my diet. I once ate a lot of fast food and sugary snacks, but I started cooking fresh meals at home. I included more vegetables, fruits, and whole grains in my meals. At first, I missed my old eating habits, but gradually I began to enjoy the new flavors. Next, I started exercising frequently. I began with a 15-minute walk every day. Slowly, I increased it to 30 minutes, and then I started jogging. Now, I run about five kilometers three times a week. The most difficult part was giving up my late-night habits. I once stayed up late. Now I go to bed early. I feel like a different person. I have more energy, my mood improved greatly, and I no longer get sick as often as before. The journey wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. I learned that small changes can lead to big results. Health is truly the greatest wealth. Please answer the following questions with not more than 10 words. 66.
