What is a good friend? Maybe different people have different answers. I have a good friend named Zhou Ming. We like playing soccer very much, but he is 1 (strong) than me. We are both on our school soccer team. Last month our team had a match against a team from No. 20 Middle School. At first, we didn’t do well and felt sorry. But at last we tried our best and 2 (win) the game. We were all 3 (excite) and hugged each other tightly (紧紧拥抱). It was really 4 wonderful game.
5 we have the same hobby, we still have some differences. Last Sunday we went to the bookstore. I bought some science books, but Zhou Ming bought some books about Chinese poems (诗). At school he always 6 (share) fantastic Chinese poems with me, and I always teach him difficult math problems. 7 knowing my friend and me, let’s go back to the question at the beginning. I think the necessary point is not how your friend is similar 8 you. Just as the saying goes, “No 9 (leaf) are exactly the same in the world.” Nobody is the same as you. When we stay with 10 (we) friends, we can talk, laugh, and even cry together. That’s a good friend!

From that day, Gina and Rita became best friends.

True friendship is a really important and beautiful thing in our lives. It’s not just about having fun together, going to the movies or e 1 delicious food. And it’s not just about giving each other e 2 gifts, either.
True friends will always be there for you when you are in t 3 . For example, if you don’t do well i 4 a test and you feel sad, a true friend will come to you right away. They will sit beside you and say kind words. T 5 they might study with you, help you solve the difficult problems, and make a study plan for you.
Also, true friends will listen c 6 when you share your happiness and sadness. When you tell t 7 that you won a prize in a school competition, they will feel happy for you. When you talk about that you argued with your parents and feel s 8 , they will listen carefully and give you good advice on it. They will always keep your secrets and n 9 tell anyone else.
Even if you live far away from each other and you might not see each other often, when you meet again or talk on the phone, it will still feel like you are t 10 all the time. Your friendship will stay strong because of understanding each other, trusting each other, and always being willing to help each other.
“Keep your eyes on your own paper” is one of the rules that Mrs. Archer taught us. It is a simple rule, but not everybody c 1 to follow it.
This morning, I had an experience with a “rule breaker” d 2 an English test. I felt somebody was watching me a little too closely. I turned my head quickly and saw James, who sat right behind me. My eyes caught his and he said in a low v 3 , “I hope you have prepared for the test well!” I gave him a smile and r 4 to my test. This time, I leaned (倾身) a little more closely towards my paper.
“I can’t see!” James said.
“What am I going to do?” I thought to m 5 . Cheating (作弊) was not right.
“He’s your friend, and what are friends for?” “You know it’s wrong.”
I knocked on my desk softly, hoping for a w 6 out of this matter. No easy answer came. I just knew I had to do something c 7 even if it may make James angry. So I didn’t let James see my answers, i 8 , I covered my paper with my arms.
When the test e 9 , I stood there for a moment, searching for the right words to say to James. “Sorry, James, but I think you know how I feel about cheating,” I said slowly and softly. “But maybe I could help you study before the next test.” “OK, Brian,” he smiled, “It might be not easy, but I will give it a t 10 .”
I felt happy that my friendship with James hadn’t been destroyed (破坏).
二、完形填空
I entered the class nervously, not knowing what to expect. Ms Williams 1 being hard. As I took my seat, I noticed a girl sitting by the window. I’d seen her before but didn’t know her name. I supposed something would happen 2 us.
During the class, she didn’t speak or look up from her notebook. At break, she went to the library alone. Later that week, we were divided into the same group in a project. During the project, I realised the girl named Lucy was kind and smart. I smiled at her and she gave a small 3 in return.
Over the next few months, Lucy and I became close friends. Slowly, Lucy began to open up. She 4 about herself, and told me that she loved to read and watch old movies. I was 5 to see the shy expression leave her face.
One day Lucy told me a secret. She’d been laughed at impolitely for a long time at her former school. They even made her feel 6 of doing anything, which is called PUA online. The rude treatment had 7 hurt her. So she had to turn to her parents and teachers for help. Luckily, they realised they were wrong and said sorry at last. But as she spoke, her eyes were filled with tears. It’s obvious that something has left a shadow (阴影) on her heart. I could do nothing but 8 her by saying she shouldn’t have been treated that way. And 9 she needed me in the future, I would be there.
A smile spread across Lucy’s face. I realised Lucy’s friendship was a 10 gift. From that day on, Lucy and I were inseparable (不可分离的). Everything has changed since then for the better.

三、阅读理解
Getting in touch with friends is difficult after people change schools or move house. They don’t know how to start the conversation again if they don’t talk with their friends for a long time. Many people want to get in touch with old friends, but they are afraid to do so.
Psychologists (心理学家) from colleges did a study about how people feel about getting in touch with old friends.
The study shows over 90% of the people don’t call their old friends. 70% of them don’t want to call their friends first, because they worry that their old friends won’t want to hear from them and maybe their old friends are too busy to talk with them. Some people even think getting in touch with their old friends is as hard as talking to strange people.
Lara Aknin, one of the psychologists, said, “Most people are worried that they have different lifestyles and interests now. But these differences can be helpful for people to get close to each other. After sharing something new and interesting, they won’t feel embarrassed (尴尬的) at all. Instead, they know each other better.”
In fact, if you get in touch with an old friend, you will be surprised to find that he or she is also looking forward to hearing from you. So, why not give your old friend a call?
1.How does the writer start the passage?
A.By telling a story. B.By giving a fact.
C.By asking a question. D.By listing numbers.
2.What can we learn from Lara Aknin’s words?

B.We can’t share our things with old friends.

3.What does the writer want to tell us?
A.It’s important to have some good friends.
B.Be brave to get in touch with your old friends.

What would you do if your best friend and you had different ideas? At first, I didn’t know how to do it when I found that my best friend Karina disagreed with me on some things.
When we first met in a summer camp, we got along so well.
But then something happened at a picnic. “Did you hear about the shopping center news?” asked one of our friends Levar. “They want to cut down lots of trees to make room for a shopping center.”
“That’s terrible! We have to stop that,” I said.
“I disagree,” said Karina. “The shopping center would give new jobs to people in need.”
“But animals would lose their homes!” I said. “I want people to have jobs, but it doesn’t mean cutting down trees.”
I wished Karina could agree with me about saving the trees, but she had her reasons for believing what she said. I was so angry that I didn’t talk to her for days.
Later, my mother knew it and said to me, “No two people are the same. You should respect each other. And no matter what happens, the difference doesn’t mean losing a good friend.”
After listening to my mom’s words, I said sorry to Karina and we are still good friends now.

In today’s world, the word “buddies” is very popular. A buddy is someone who shares similar interests or goals with you, and you often spend time together to reach those goals.
Buddies often share common interests. For example, if you love basketball, you might find a buddy who also enjoys it. This shared interest makes it easier to become friends and spend time together. Similarly, study buddies share the goal of improving grades, which encourages them to work together.
However, buddies can also be different. Good friends are very close and often spend a lot of time together, while buddies may only meet sometimes. For example, a gym buddy might only see you during workouts (锻炼), while a best friend might be someone you hang out with every day. Also, buddies might help each other in different ways. Some give emotional support (情感支持), while others might give more real-world help, like sharing study notes.
Another difference is how long the relationship (关系) lasts. Some buddies only last for a short time, like a partner for a school subject, while some friends can last a lifetime, like a childhood friend.
Understanding these similarities and differences can help us realize that buddies are also important in our lives.

A.They often have similar interests. B.They spend a lot of time together.
C.They help each other with studies. D.They have known each other for a long time.

A.A gym buddy is more helpful. B.A gym buddy shares more interests.
C.A gym buddy spends less time with you. D.A gym buddy gives more real-world help.
3.Which is an example of a short buddy relationship?
A.Sally is a childhood friend of mine. B.I play basketball with my classmate Tom.
C.I often hang out with my best friend Lisa. D.Li Ming is my partner for a school subject.

A.①/②③④⑤ B.①/②/③④/⑤ C.①②③④/⑤ D.①/②③/④⑤
5.What is the best title for the text?
A.Understanding Buddies B.How to Find a Perfect Buddy
C.The History of the Word “Buddy” D.Why Childhood Friends Are the Best Buddies

I think the necessary point is not how your friend is similar 8 you. Just as the saying goes, “No 9 (leaf) are exactly the same in the world.” Nobody is the same as you.

“I can’t see!” James said.
“What am I going to do?” I thought to m 5 . Cheating (作弊) was not right.
“He’s your friend, and what are friends for?” “You know it’s wrong.”

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者的朋友在考试时想抄作者的答案,作者认为这种作弊行为是不对的,在考试后作者向朋友认真解释了他对于这件事情的看法,并告诉朋友可以帮助补习,朋友很开心的答应了。
1.句意:这是一条简单的规则,但并不是每个人都选择遵守它。根据“but not everybody...to follow it.”和首字母提示可知,指的是选择遵守规则,choose to do sth.“选择做某事”,主语是“everybody”,因此谓语动词用一般现在时单三形式。故填(c)hooses。

7.句意:我只知道我必须做些正确的事,即使这会让James生气。根据“I just knew I had to do something...even if it may make James angry.”和首字母提示可知,作者并不想帮助朋友作弊,因此是“某些正确的事”,correct“正确的”。故填(c)orrect。
8.句意:所以我没有让James看到我的答案,相反地,我用手臂遮住了试卷。根据“So I didn’t let James see my answers...I covered my paper with my arms.”和首字母提示可知,作者没有按照朋友的意思去做,而是遮住了自己的答案,因此instead“相反地”符合语境。故填(i)nstead。

I entered the class nervously, not knowing what to expect. Ms Williams 1 being hard. As I took my seat, I noticed a girl sitting by the window. I’d seen her before but didn’t know her name. I supposed something would happen 2 us.
During the class, she didn’t speak or look up from her notebook. At break, she went to the library alone. Later that week, we were divided into the same group in a project. During the project, I realised the girl named Lucy was kind and smart. I smiled at her and she gave a small 3 in return.
Over the next few months, Lucy and I became close friends. Slowly, Lucy began to open up. She 4 about herself, and told me that she loved to read and watch old movies. I was 5 to see the shy expression leave her face.
One day Lucy told me a secret. She’d been laughed at impolitely for a long time at her former school. They even made her feel 6 of doing anything, which is called PUA online. The rude treatment had 7 hurt her. So she had to turn to her parents and teachers for help. Luckily, they realised they were wrong and said sorry at last. But as she spoke, her eyes were filled with tears. It’s obvious that something has left a shadow (阴影) on her heart. I could do nothing but 8 her by saying she shouldn’t have been treated that way. And 9 she needed me in the future, I would be there.
A smile spread across Lucy’s face. I realised Lucy’s friendship was a 10 gift. From that day on, Lucy and I were inseparable (不可分离的). Everything has changed since then for the better.

【答案】
1.C 2.A 3.C 4.C 5.B 6.A 7.B 8.D 9.B 10.D
【导语】本文讲述了作者与新同学Lucy从陌生到成为挚友的过程。Lucy曾因霸凌封闭内心,作者的陪伴让她走出阴影,体现友谊的珍贵。
1.句意:Williams老师以严厉著称。
“being hard”是特点,was known for“因……而闻名”符合语境。was known as意为“被称为”,后接身份;was known to意为“为……所知”,后接人;was known in搭配不当。
2.句意:我想我们之间会发生什么事。
happen to sb.意为“发生在某人身上/某人经历了某事” 。
3.句意:我向她微笑,她回了一个小小的微笑。
根据前文“I smiled at her”可知,此处是回以微笑,smile“微笑”呼应前文。
4.句意:她谈论关于自己的事,并且告诉我她喜欢阅读和观看老电影。
根据前句“open up”及后文的“told me”可知,此处是谈论自己,talked“谈话”符合语境。
5.句意:我很高兴看到她害羞的表情消失了。
由第二段的“she didn’t speak...”到现在变开朗,可知此处表达的是积极的词汇。happy“高兴的”符合为朋友感到高兴的语境。其他三项情感色彩不符。
6.句意:他们甚至让她对做任何事都感到羞愧,这在网上被称为PUA。
根据前文“laughed at impolitely”可知,本句表达的是负面情绪,ashamed“羞愧的”符合语境。
7.句意:粗鲁的对待深深地伤害了她。
根据“shadow on her heart”可知,伤害很深,deeply“深深地”符合语境。
8.句意:我什么都做不了,只能通过说她不应该受到那样的对待来安慰她。
根据后文“she shouldn’t have been treated that way”可知,本句是在安慰Lucy,comfort“安慰”符合语境。
9.句意:未来无论何时她需要我,我都会在。
根据“in the future”可知,本句指时间,whenever“无论何时”符合逻辑关系。
10.句意:我意识到Lucy的友谊是无价的礼物。
根据常识可知友谊珍贵,priceless“无价的”符合语境。

【导语】本文主要讲述了作者的好朋友李明从起初害羞内向、不爱社交,到后来在体育老师的鼓励下参加学校接力赛并表现优异,从而逐步变得开朗外向、积极融入集体并关爱他人的蜕变过程,说明了勇气和帮助能让每个人获得成长。
1.句意:他腼腆又安静。
根据第一段中的“Li Ming is my best friend, but he wasn’t always as outgoing as he is today.”以及后文“he would just smile shyly”中的修饰语“shyly”可知,李明一年前是一个性格害羞内向且安静的人。故选用shy表示“害羞的”。
2.句意:课间的时候,他常常独自坐着看书或者听音乐。
根据第一段中的“In class, he hardly spoke up and always tried to get out of group activities.”可知,李明不爱发言、总是躲避集体活动,因此在课间休息时他通常也是独自待着。故选用usually表示“通常”。
3.句意:我很为他感到惋惜,经常邀请他来参加我们的游戏。
根据空后“for him and often invited him to take part in our games”以及上文他孤僻的表现可知,作者为他感到难过并希望能帮他融入集体,此处是固定搭配“feel sorry for sb.”(为某人感到惋惜/难过)。故选用sorry。
4.句意:然而,他只会腼腆地笑一笑,然后摇摇头。
根据空前“he would just smile shyly and shake his…”可知,此处在描述李明面对作者的游戏邀请时的拒绝动作。表示拒绝的头部动作是“摇头”。故选用head表示“头”。
5.句意:在学校的运动日上,发生了一个巨大的改变。
根据下文“That moment made a big difference. After Sports Day, Li Ming slowly became more…”可知,运动日那一刻成为了分水岭,李明在此之后性格发生了巨大的、慢慢外向的改变。故选用change表示“改变/变化”。
6.句意:他的老师发现了他的潜力,鼓励他参加班级接力赛。
根据空前“His teacher noticed his potential”以及空后“him to join in the class relay race”可知,老师发现了他的运动潜能,因此以积极的态度激励他参赛。故选用encouraged表示“鼓励”。
7.句意:然而,当他开始奔跑时,队友和同学们大声为他加油。
根据第二段中的“relay race”以及本句空前的“when he started”可知,接力赛属于奔跑类的竞技项目,所以此处的动作是开始奔跑。故选用running表示“跑步/奔跑”。
8.句意:令所有人惊讶的是,他跑得比其他人都快,帮助班级赢得了胜利!
根据空后“than anyone else and helped the class win!”以及前文提到他参加的是跑步接力赛可知,他在比赛中跑得比其他人都要快。故选用faster表示“更快的”。
9.句意:运动会过后,李明慢慢变得更加外向了。
根据第一段首句中的“but he wasn’t always as outgoing as he is today.”中提到的“outgoing”可知,李明现在的变化是变得开朗外向了。故选用outgoing表示“外向的/开朗的”。
10.句意:他加入了校篮球队,这让所有人更加意外!
根据空前“He started putting his hand up in class more often.”以及空后“everyone even more by joining the school basketball team!”可知,李明一改往日害羞的形象,主动举手并发起加入篮球队,这些出人意料的举动再次让所有人感到惊讶。故选用surprised表示“使……吃惊/惊讶”。
11.句意:他发现自己很享受成为团队中的一员。
根据第二段中的“relay race”以及第三段中的“school basketball team”可知,这两者都是需要多人合作的团队项目,因此他很享受成为队伍中的一员。故选用team表示“团队/队伍”。
12.句意:现在,李明的性格已经大不一样了。
根据下文描述“He laughs loudly…He helps them see the silver lining…He isn’t shy anymore”中对李明行为、态度的细节描写可知,这些都属于他心理和性格层面的巨大转变。故选用personality表示“性格/个性”。
13.句意:他关心自己的同学们。
根据下文句“He helps them see the silver lining…someone is in a difficult situation.”中他主动向处于困境的人伸出援助手的表现可知,他非常关心他的同学们。故选用cares about表示“关心/关爱”。
14.句意:当有人身处困境时,他会帮助大家看到困境中的希望。
根据空前句“He helps them see the silver lining”与空后句“someone is in a difficult situation”可知,此处是一个表示时间背景的状语从句。故选用when表示“当……时”。
15.句意:他的改变让我懂得:只要拥有勇气、得到他人帮助,每个人都可以不断成长。
根据第一段开头的“Li Ming is my best friend…”可知,整篇文章是作者站在第一人称角度对好友李明的观察。此处修饰名词“change”,应使用第三人称单数形容词性物主代词指代李明的改变,且处于句首需大写首字母。故选用His表示“他的”。

【导语】本文讲述了作者的好友李明从害羞安静、不愿参加集体活动,到在运动会接力赛中受到鼓励后慢慢变得外向自信,最终成为篮球队优秀球员并在才艺表演中登台的转变过程。
1.句意:他害羞而安静。
and quiet并列,后文“smile shyly”和“afraid”说明他很shy“害羞的”,符合语境。slim“苗条的”不能与quiet并列描述性格、familiar“熟悉的”和forgetful“健忘的”同样不描述害羞的性格。
2.句意:课间他总是独自坐着读书或听音乐。
不愿参加集体活动说明他alone“独自地”待着,符合语境。alike“相像的”为形容词不能修饰动词、heavily“沉重地”和easily“容易地”均不能描述独自一人的状态。
3.句意:我想为他做点什么,经常邀请他参加我们的游戏。
想帮助他,something“某事”用于肯定句表示做一些事情帮他,符合语境。anything用于否定或疑问句、nothing“没什么”与想要帮忙的意图矛盾、everything“每件事”程度过重。
4.句意:学校运动会那天发生了一个重大变化。
后文李明不再害羞是巨大的change“变化”,符合语境。accident“事故”带有负面色彩、joke“玩笑”和budget“预算”均不能描述性格的改变。
5.句意:老师注意到了他的能力,建议他参加班级接力赛。
老师recommend him的前提是noticed“注意到”他的能力,符合语境。covered“覆盖”和stored“储存”均不用于“注意某人的才能”、forgot“忘记”与建议矛盾。
6.句意:然而,当他开始跑步时,他的队友和同学们大声鼓励他。
relay race接力赛需要running“跑步”,符合语境。swimming“游泳”、walking“散步”、jumping“跳”均不是接力赛的运动方式。
7.句意:他跑得比任何人都快,帮助班级赢得了胜利!
won the race说明他跑得faster“更快”,符合语境。slower“更慢”不能赢比赛、earlier“更早”和later“更晚”均不能描述跑步速度。
8.句意:运动会后李明慢慢变得更外向了。
前文害羞安静,转变后变得more outgoing“更外向”,符合语境。less popular“更不受欢迎”和less handsome“更不帅”与积极转变矛盾、more serious“更严肃”不能概括参与活动的变化。
9.句意:他和队友们一直训练到晚上十点。
practised后接时间终点,until“直到”表达训练持续到晚上十点,符合语境。towards“朝着”表方向、against“反对”和along“沿着”均不能与时间搭配。
10.句意:他享受成为团队的一员。
joined basketball team说明他享受team“团队”,符合语境。province“省份”、community“社区”、family“家庭”均不能对应篮球队。
11.句意:事实上,他现在是队里最好的球员之一。
one of the后接最高级,best“最好的”体现积极转变的成果,符合语境。oldest“最老的”、laziest“最懒的”、heaviest“最重的”均不能描述成为优秀球员的积极结果。
12.句意:现在李明的性格非常不同了。
前文描述性格从害羞到外向,personality“性格”直接总结这一转变,符合语境。population“人口”、appearance“外貌”、apartment“公寓”均不能概括“变外向”的改变。
13.句意:他主动关心同学们,帮助他们在困境中看到一线希望。
reach out to“主动接触/伸出援手”准确表达李明主动关心同学、帮助他们从消极中找到积极面的行为,符合语境。try on“试穿”、pack up“打包”、compare with“比较”均不能描述“主动关心帮助他人”的含义。
14.句意:他在同学们处于困境时帮助他们看到希望。
“处于困境”是帮助的时间条件,when“当……时”引导时间状语从句,符合语境。so“所以”、and“和”、but“但是”均不能表达时间关系。
15.句意:他的改变教会我,只要有勇气和帮助,任何人都能成长。
全文讲述李明的改变,His change“他的改变”符合语境。My“我的”视角不对、Your“你的”和Her“她的”均与主语李明不一致。
三、阅读理解
Getting in touch with friends is difficult after people change schools or move house. They don’t know how to start the conversation again if they don’t talk with their friends for a long time. Many people want to get in touch with old friends, but they are afraid to do so.
Psychologists (心理学家) from colleges did a study about how people feel about getting in touch with old friends.
The study shows over 90% of the people don’t call their old friends. 70% of them don’t want to call their friends first, because they worry that their old friends won’t want to hear from them and maybe their old friends are too busy to talk with them. Some people even think getting in touch with their old friends is as hard as talking to strange people.
Lara Aknin, one of the psychologists, said, “Most people are worried that they have different lifestyles and interests now. But these differences can be helpful for people to get close to each other. After sharing something new and interesting, they won’t feel embarrassed (尴尬的) at all. Instead, they know each other better.”
In fact, if you get in touch with an old friend, you will be surprised to find that he or she is also looking forward to hearing from you. So, why not give your old friend a call?
1.How does the writer start the passage?
A.By telling a story. B.By giving a fact.
C.By asking a question. D.By listing numbers.
2.What can we learn from Lara Aknin’s words?
A.It’s hard to get in touch with old friends.
B.We can’t share our things with old friends.
C.Differences may help people get close to old friends.
D.Most people might have different lifestyles and interests.
3.What does the writer want to tell us?
A.It’s important to have some good friends.
B.Be brave to get in touch with your old friends.
C.We should make as many new friends as possible.
D.Make friends with people having the same interest.
【答案】1.B 2.C 3.B

What would you do if your best friend and you had different ideas? At first, I didn’t know how to do it when I found that my best friend Karina disagreed with me on some things.
When we first met in a summer camp, we got along so well.
But then something happened at a picnic. “Did you hear about the shopping center news?” asked one of our friends Levar. “They want to cut down lots of trees to make room for a shopping center.”
“That’s terrible! We have to stop that,” I said.
“I disagree,” said Karina. “The shopping center would give new jobs to people in need.”
“But animals would lose their homes!” I said. “I want people to have jobs, but it doesn’t mean cutting down trees.”
I wished Karina could agree with me about saving the trees, but she had her reasons for believing what she said. I was so angry that I didn’t talk to her for days.
Later, my mother knew it and said to me, “No two people are the same. You should respect each other. And no matter what happens, the difference doesn’t mean losing a good friend.”
After listening to my mom’s words, I said sorry to Karina and we are still good friends now.

In today’s world, the word “buddies” is very popular. A buddy is someone who shares similar interests or goals with you, and you often spend time together to reach those goals.
Buddies often share common interests. For example, if you love basketball, you might find a buddy who also enjoys it. This shared interest makes it easier to become friends and spend time together. Similarly, study buddies share the goal of improving grades, which encourages them to work together.
However, buddies can also be different. Good friends are very close and often spend a lot of time together, while buddies may only meet sometimes. For example, a gym buddy might only see you during workouts (锻炼), while a best friend might be someone you hang out with every day. Also, buddies might help each other in different ways. Some give emotional support (情感支持), while others might give more real-world help, like sharing study notes.
Another difference is how long the relationship (关系) lasts. Some buddies only last for a short time, like a partner for a school subject, while some friends can last a lifetime, like a childhood friend.
Understanding these similarities and differences can help us realize that buddies are also important in our lives.
1.What makes it easier for buddies to become friends?
A.They often have similar interests. B.They spend a lot of time together.
C.They help each other with studies. D.They have known each other for a long time.
2.Why might a gym buddy be different from a best friend?
A.A gym buddy is more helpful. B.A gym buddy shares more interests.
C.A gym buddy spends less time with you. D.A gym buddy gives more real-world help.
3.Which is an example of a short buddy relationship?
A.Sally is a childhood friend of mine. B.I play basketball with my classmate Tom.
C.I often hang out with my best friend Lisa. D.Li Ming is my partner for a school subject.
4.Which of the following best shows the structure of the text?
A.①/②③④⑤ B.①/②/③④/⑤ C.①②③④/⑤ D.①/②③/④⑤
5.What is the best title for the text?
A.Understanding Buddies B.How to Find a Perfect Buddy
C.The History of the Word “Buddy” D.Why Childhood Friends Are the Best Buddies
【答案】1.A 2.C 3.D 4.B 5.A
【导语】本文先给出buddy(搭档/同伴)的定义,接着介绍buddy与好友的相同之处(拥有共同兴趣目标),再从相处时长、互助方式、关系持续时长三方面对比二者区别,最后总结了解这些异同能让我们明白buddy在生活中同样重要。
1.根据原文第二段 “This shared interest makes it easier to become friends.”,拥有相似的兴趣能让搭档更容易成为朋友。
2.根据原文第三段 “a gym buddy might only see you during workouts, while a best friend might be someone you hang out with every day.”,健身搭档只锻炼时见面,和最好的朋友相比相处时间更少。
3.根据原文第四段 “Some buddies only last for a short time, like a partner for a school subject”,学科搭档属于短期搭档关系,对应D选项。
4.第①段总述介绍buddy;第②段讲buddy和好友的相同点;第③、④段分两点讲二者不同之处;第⑤段总结全文,结构为①/②/③④/⑤。

① Do you know E-person (外向型人格) and I-person (内向型人格)? These two kinds of personalities are much discussed online. Even twins may be quite different from each other, such as personalities, hobbies, friends and so on. To learn more about that ,let's hear from the following twins.
②Andy, an Extrovert
I enjoy trying new things and playing with many friends. Ken and I head to the beach on Saturdays to surf, and on Sundays. I hang out with Tom, eating and riding. At school, Larry is my best friend. I don’t spend much time with him over the weekends because he likes to play video games at home just by himself. I’m cool with (对……没问题) it because I can visit other friends. I value (重视) his friendship a lot because Larry cares about me and often gives great advice about my problems.
③Anna, an Introvert
I think nothing is more enjoyable than staying on the sofa by myself with a great book in hand. However, I do also need time with my two best friends, Sue and Tina. Sue is so full of life that her jokes bring much joy to my quiet days. Tina is more like me, and she understands me better than I do. We often take a long walk to share our feelings. I love both my friends and need their different personalities to make my life colourful.
④ Well, there we have it from the horse’s mouth. From Andy and Anna, introverts and extroverts can be friends and also need friends with different personalities. So start to make different friends and enjoy the special friendship!
1.What does Andy do on Saturdays with Ken?
A.Go surfing. B.Ride bikes. C.Play video games. D.Take a long walk.
2.What does “it” in paragraph (段) ② refer to (指代)?

A.Friends in need are friends indeed.
B.Friends bring out the best in each other.
C.Friends are not necessary to be the same.
D.Friends reach for your hands and touch your hearts.
【答案】1.A 2.A 3.D 4.C 5.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了外向型人格和内向型人格的特点,并通过一对双胞胎Andy和Anna的例子,说明不同性格的人也能成为朋友,且都需要不同性格的朋友来丰富生活。
1.第二段指出Andy的活动:“Ken and I head to the beach on Saturdays to surf”,说明Andy和Ken在周六去冲浪。
2.第二段中提到“I don’t spend much time with him over the weekends because he likes to play video games at home just by himself. I’m cool with it...”,这里的“it”指代的是Larry喜欢独自在家玩电子游戏这件事。
3.第三段描述Sue:“Sue is so full of life that her jokes bring much joy to my quiet days.”,“full of life”体现了Sue活泼外向的性格,因此最能描述她的词是Outgoing。
4.文章结构分析:第①段引出话题,第②段介绍外向的Andy,第③段介绍内向的Anna,第④段总结全文,属于“总—分—总”结构(①为总起,②③为分述,④为总结)。
5.第四段总结:“introverts and extroverts can be friends and also need friends with different personalities”,说明朋友之间不需要性格完全相同。

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了Anna在英语考试失利后,在好友Lucy的帮助下重新振作并取得优异成绩的故事,体现了朋友间相互关心、共同成长的主题。
1.第二段提到“Anna was shocked to get only 58 points in the mid-term exam. She felt sad and frustrated”,说明Anna期中考试失败且感到沮丧;接着第二段提到“Lucy noticed and decided to help...shared her notes and made a study plan”,说明Lucy制定学习计划并帮助Anna学习英语;第三段提到“Nervous Anna almost gave up, but Lucy encouraged her. With Lucy’s support, Anna passed with 82 points”,说明Anna在Lucy的鼓励下通过了突击测验;第一段提到“Anna’s eyes filled with happy tears—she got an A. She ran to Lucy...and said, ‘Thank you!’”,说明Anna英语得了A并感谢Lucy。所以正确顺序是②→③→④→①,答案选B。
2.第二段指出:“She felt sad and frustrated, refusing to talk to anyone”,结合Anna考试只得了58分这一背景,可知她此时既伤心又失望,“frustrated”意思与“sad and disappointed”相近。

7.句意:我们每周去两次音乐俱乐部。后文提到“There we learn many music skills.”可知,此处指参加了音乐俱乐部。music club意为“音乐俱乐部”,符合语境。故选club。
8.句意:上个月Tony在一次歌唱比赛中获得一等奖。根据“got the first prize in a singing”可知,此处可以说再歌唱比赛中获得一等奖,备选词competition是“比赛”,singing competition意为“歌唱比赛”,符合语境。故填competition。
9.句意:当然我们也有一些不同之处。后文提到了“For example, he does better in math. But I think math is too difficult”,是介绍不同之处,some后接可数名词复数,difference的复数是differences。故填differences。
10.句意:去年他经常来我家帮我学数学。根据“to my home to help me with my math”可知,此处指来家里帮忙作者学数学,Last year提示句子用一般过去时,come的过去式是came。故填came。

My best friend is Tom. He is kind and helpful, always ready to give others a hand. He has a big smile and likes reading in his free time.
Last term, I failed my English exam and felt really upset. He cheered me up and helped me with my English after school every day. With his help, I made great progress soon.
