For years, it has been said that newspapers are at death’s door. Each of the past few years has seen many newspapers say goodbye to their readers. But why is the situation so terrible for newspapers?
Newspapers have a long history. The first newspaper was printed in 1 1600s. The industry witnessed 2 most successful periods in the early 20th century.
With the appearance of radio and TV, however, newspaper circulation began to fall. By the mid-20th century, radio and TV had become so popular that people no longer had to rely on newspapers for news. This was especially true for breaking news.
Afternoon newspapers were the first to suffer. People coming home from work increasingly turned on the TV, rather than open a newspaper. But generally, newspapers still managed to survive. 3 they couldn’t compete with TV in terms of delivering the latest news, they could provide in-depth reports that TV news could not.
But newspapers suffered 4 heavier blow in the 1990s. With the appearance of the internet, 5 information became free. Many newspaper readers realized that they could 6 read news online for free. There seemed to be little reason any longer for them 7 for a newspaper subscription.
So what does the future hold? Will newspapers die, just like cassettes and typewriters? Maybe not. Now, many newspapers 8 . Some are going digital. Some are going even 9 by taking the industry to places it has never been to. After all, people still want the news. And many agree that newspapers are an important source of in-depth news and ideas. If newspapers were to entirely disappear, there would be 10 to take their place.
1.A.a B.an C.the D./
2.A.it B.its C.it’s D.itself
3.A.Although B.Because C.If D.Unless
4.A.other B.the other C.another D.others
5.A.large number of B.large numbers of C.large amount of D.large amounts of
6.A.inconvenient B.convenient C.convenience D.conveniently
7.A.to pay B.paying C.paid D.to paying
8.A.change B.are changing C.changed D.will change
9.A.far B.more far C.farther D.the farthest
10.A.something B.everything C.anything D.nothing
四、阅读理解
An encyclopaedia is a useful special reference book, or a set of books. It contains valuable information on many different subjects, or it can focus deeply on one subject. For over 2,000 years, encyclopaedias have summarized human knowledge to help people learn.
The word “encyclopaedia” comes from ancient Greek words meaning “all-round education”. At first, it described a complete system of learning. A German writer, Paul Scalich, was the first to use “encyclopaedia” as the actual title for a book in 1559. Before that, these books often had creative names or were simply called “dictionaries”. Denis Diderot later made “encyclopaedia” more popular with his well-known French “Encyclopédie”.
The meaning of “encyclopaedia” has changed greatly. Today, people usually think of a large set of books. These books often include maps, pictures, and an index to help find information. They cover many various topics, including biographies of important people, both in the past and at present. Many experts write these articles, and skilled editors carefully put them together.
However, encyclopaedias weren’t always exactly like this. In the past, some were just a single book written by one person, while others were indeed huge sets. They didn’t always have illustrations or information about living people. Arranging topics alphabetically or using languages other than Latin took many years to become very common.
Encyclopaedias can cover all knowledge or focus on specific broad areas, like history or science. They are important because they record what people knew at different specific times. Even old encyclopaedias are valuable because they contain writings from many great thinkers and leaders, showing how our understanding of the world has greatly grown.
1.What is the main purpose of an encyclopaedia?
A.To replace formal education systems. B.To advertise new scientific discoveries.
C.To entertain readers with creative stories. D.To summarize human knowledge for learning.
2.How did early encyclopaedias differ from modern ones?
A.They focused only on science. B.They were always written in Latin.
C.They often didn’t have illustrations. D.They never covered multiple subjects.
3.What does the underlined word “index” in Paragraph 3 probably mean in Chinese?
A.索引 B.封皮 C.脚注 D.标题
4.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
(①Modern features ②Definition ③Value ④Past features ⑤History)
A.②→⑤→①→④→③ B.⑤→②→④→①→③
C.②→①→⑤→③→④ D.①→⑤→②→④→③
5.Where is the passage probably taken from?
A.A fiction novel about Greek scholars. B.A museum guidebook about ancient books.
C.A newspaper article on modern technology. D.An educational magazine on knowledge tools.
五、语法填空
The giant panda is a national treasure of China. It is famous 1 a living fossil. Most pandas have black-and-white fur. They look very cute and have higher 2 (intelligent) than many animals. They can follow the zookeepers’ 3 (instruction) without difficulty. That’s why almost everyone 4 (like) them.

The living giant panda was 8 (one) found in Sichuan by a Frenchman. Because giant pandas were in danger of 9 (die) out, they were on the list of the endangered species. Luckily, in 2016, 10 (science) changed the level of giant pandas on the list. It’s China’s success in rebuilding bamboo forests.

someone
something
somebody

everything
everybody
no
no one
nothing
nobody
含有-one和-body的不定代词功能和意义基本相同,含有-one的不定代词比含有-body的不定代词正式。
用法详解:
(1) 带有some的复合不定代词一般用于肯定句,带有any的复合不定代词一般用于否定句和疑问句。
Someone is knocking at the door.(肯定句)有人在敲门。
I don’t know anything about dinosaurs.(否定句)我对恐龙一无所知。
(2) 当表示请求、建议且希望得到对方肯定回答时,some及some构成的不定代词也可以用在一般疑问句中;

A.new something B.something new C.new anything D.anything new

new something (错误表达:形容词不能放在不定代词前面);something new某件新鲜事;new anything(双重错误:形容词前置 + 肯定句不用anything);anything new(错误:anything不用于肯定陈述句)。形容词后置、肯定句用something,形容词修饰不定代词置于不定代词之后,something用于肯定句,anything用于否定句,本句是一个肯定句,所以选B。
2.—If ________ calls, tell them I’m not at home.
—Okay, I will do it this way.
A.anything B.nothing C.none D.anyone
【答案】D
【详解】句意:——如果有人打电话来,告诉他们我不在家。——好的,我会这样做的。

some一些;any任何;much许多;little极少。milk是不可数名词;“Would you like…?”表示委婉的建议或请求,希望得到肯定回答,疑问句中用some不用any。
5.—Did you find ________ useful on the website?
—Yes, I found some learning materials for my math test.
A.everything B.nothing C.anything D.something
【答案】C
【详解】句意:——你在网站上找到什么有用的东西了吗?——是的,我为数学考试找到了一些学习资料。

something interesting一些有趣的事;something boring一些无聊的事;anything interesting任何有趣的事;anything boring任何无聊的事。something多用于肯定句;anything多用于否定句、疑问句。 本句是一般疑问句Did you…,所以用anything。答句说学到很多做传统豆腐干的知识,说明是有趣的。形容词修饰不定代词要后置,此处用anything interesting,表示“有趣的事”,故填anything interesting。
9.I didn’t find anything special in today’s newspaper. (改为同义句)
I ________ ________ special in today’s newspaper.
【答案】 found nothing
【详解】句意:我在今天的报纸里没有发现任何特别的内容。原句中anything用于否定句,改同义句时,使用nothing,nothing本身带有否定含义,句子谓语动词要变回肯定形式。 原句为一般过去时,find的过去式是found。 形容词位置:special修饰不定代词nothing,必须放在后面,即nothing special。
10.暑假你有没有体验过什么有意思的事?

【答案】 anything interesting
【详解】原句中“有意思的事”是关键词,表达暑假经历趣味事件的含义,英语中疑问句里泛指事物需用不定代词anything,形容词修饰不定代词需要后置,搭配形容词interesting体现有意思的语义,故填anything;interesting。

四、阅读理解
An encyclopaedia is a useful special reference book, or a set of books. It contains valuable information on many different subjects, or it can focus deeply on one subject. For over 2,000 years, encyclopaedias have summarized human knowledge to help people learn.
The word “encyclopaedia” comes from ancient Greek words meaning “all-round education”. At first, it described a complete system of learning. A German writer, Paul Scalich, was the first to use “encyclopaedia” as the actual title for a book in 1559. Before that, these books often had creative names or were simply called “dictionaries”. Denis Diderot later made “encyclopaedia” more popular with his well-known French “Encyclopédie”.
The meaning of “encyclopaedia” has changed greatly. Today, people usually think of a large set of books. These books often include maps, pictures, and an index to help find information. They cover many various topics, including biographies of important people, both in the past and at present. Many experts write these articles, and skilled editors carefully put them together.
However, encyclopaedias weren’t always exactly like this. In the past, some were just a single book written by one person, while others were indeed huge sets. They didn’t always have illustrations or information about living people. Arranging topics alphabetically or using languages other than Latin took many years to become very common.
Encyclopaedias can cover all knowledge or focus on specific broad areas, like history or science. They are important because they record what people knew at different specific times. Even old encyclopaedias are valuable because they contain writings from many great thinkers and leaders, showing how our understanding of the world has greatly grown.
1.What is the main purpose of an encyclopaedia?
A.To replace formal education systems. B.To advertise new scientific discoveries.
C.To entertain readers with creative stories. D.To summarize human knowledge for learning.
2.How did early encyclopaedias differ from modern ones?
A.They focused only on science. B.They were always written in Latin.
C.They often didn’t have illustrations. D.They never covered multiple subjects.
3.What does the underlined word “index” in Paragraph 3 probably mean in Chinese?
A.索引 B.封皮 C.脚注 D.标题
4.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
(①Modern features ②Definition ③Value ④Past features ⑤History)
A.②→⑤→①→④→③ B.⑤→②→④→①→③
C.②→①→⑤→③→④ D.①→⑤→②→④→③
5.Where is the passage probably taken from?
A.A fiction novel about Greek scholars. B.A museum guidebook about ancient books.
C.A newspaper article on modern technology. D.An educational magazine on knowledge tools.
