I was ________ and am now responsible for the whole program. A. promote B. promoted C. promotion D. promise 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：我之前获得了晋升，现在负责整个项目。 根据空前的be动词was，此处需用被动语态结构，promoted是promote的过去分词，构成be promoted“被晋升”的固定职场表达，完全契合“晋升后负责全项目”的语义逻辑。promote是动词原形，无法与was构成合法语法结构；promotion是名词，不能直接跟在was后构成被动；promise“承诺”语义与“负责项目”的语境完全无关。 2. She ________ more like a friend than a mother. A. behave B. behaving C. behavior D. behaves 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：她表现得更像朋友，而不像一位母亲。 主语She是第三人称单数，句子缺少谓语动词，要用动词第三人称单数形式behaves。behave是动词原形，behaving是非谓语动词，behavior是名词，均不能单独作谓语。应填behaves。 3. Missing the bus was ________ because I woke up late. A. unbelievable B. unavoidable C. uncomfortable D. unusual 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：错过公交车是不可避免的，因为我起晚了。 unbelievable难以置信的；unavoidable不可避免的；uncomfortable不舒服的；unusual不寻常的。根据空后because引导的原因状语从句，明确“起晚”是导致错过公交的直接必然结果，unavoidable“不可避免的”完全契合因果逻辑。 4. The terrible weather will ________ our plan for the picnic. I am worried. A. have no influence on B. make an effort to C. have an effect on D. pay attention to 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：糟糕的天气会影响我们的野餐计划，我很担心。 have no influence on对……没有影响；make an effort to努力；have an effect on对……有影响；pay attention to注意。根据“I am worried.”可知，糟糕的天气会对野餐计划产生影响，应填have an effect on。 5. He hasn’t ________ from the death of his wife. A. covered B. discovered C. recovered D. improved 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：他还没有从妻子的离世中恢复过来。 cover覆盖；discover发现；recover恢复；improve改善。根据“from the death of his wife”可知，这里表达从悲痛中“恢复”，应填recovered。 6. Bronze ________ coins back then. A. used to make B. was used to make C. uses to make D. was used to making 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：青铜在那时被用来制作硬币。 根据主语Bronze与make之间是被动关系，表示“青铜被用来制作硬币”，且back then表示过去，应用一般过去时的被动语态was used to do sth.，表示“被用来做某事”，应填was used to make。 7. We ________ it was totally the wrong decision. A. discovered B. covered C. uncovered D. discovery 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们发现这是一个完全错误的决定。 discovered发现，过去式；covered覆盖，过去式；uncovered揭露、挖出（秘密 / 丑闻 / 被掩盖的真相），过去式；discovery发现，名词。根据“We...it was totally the wrong decision”可知，空格处需要一个动词作谓语，表示“发现这是一个完全错误的决定”，discover sth.意为“发现某事”，且句意表示已经发生的事情，应用过去式discovered；covered和uncovered与句意不符，discovery是名词，不能作谓语，应填discovered。 8. The man received a gift from his friend, but he didn’t want to ________ it. A. decline B. refuse C. reject D. accept 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：这个男人收到了朋友送的礼物，但是他不想收下它。 decline委婉拒绝；refuse拒绝；reject驳回或拒收；accept(主观上)接受。but表转折，男人收到朋友的礼物，但不想收下，应填accept。 9. Yang Chen-Ning ________ in Beijing on October 18, at the age of 103. A. passed away B. passed by C. passed out D. passed through 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：杨振宁于10月18日在北京去世，享年103岁。 passed away去世；passed by经过；passed out晕倒；passed through穿过。根据“at the age of 103”可知，此处是表达“去世”，passed away符合语境。 10. I found a beautiful shell ________ on the beach. It was a surprise. A. on purpose B. by mistake C. by chance D. in advance 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：我在海滩上偶然发现了一个漂亮的贝壳，这是个惊喜。 on purpose故意地；by mistake错误地、无意中（多指因疏忽等出错的情况）；by chance偶然地、意外地；in advance提前。根据后文“这是个惊喜”的语境，可知贝壳是偶然发现的，by chance符合语境。 二、语法选择（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） Noi and his dad lived near the sea.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了贫穷的农夫杰夫因嫉妒富有的邻居心生不满，在得到老人帮助时仍偏执嫉妒他人，最终醒悟自身问题的故事。 【31题详解】 句意：正因为如此，他和邻居们相处不好。 前文提到杰夫家境贫寒，嫉妒富有的邻居，由此可知他无法和邻居和睦相处。get along with表示“与……相处”，take care of“照顾”、make jokes about“取笑”、look forward to“期待”均不符合语境。 【32题详解】 句意：杰夫有一块菜地来养活家人。 结合语境，农夫耕种田地的目的是养活家人。feed表示“养活、喂养”，obey“遵守”、admit“承认”、guard“守卫”均与句意不符。 【33题详解】 句意：随着年龄增长，他发现田里干活很困难，因为他没有牛犁地。 没有耕牛辅助劳作，种地会十分费力。difficult表示“困难的”，useful“有用的”、comfortable“舒适的”、important“重要的”均不符合语境逻辑。 【34题详解】 句意：一天，杰夫从田里回家。 根据前文杰夫依靠田地劳作生活，可知此处是他从田地返程回家。field表示“田地”，forest“森林”、hospital“医院”、factory“工厂”均不符合上下文。 【35题详解】 句意：如果我有一头牛，我就能轻松地犁地。 耕牛可以辅助犁地，有了牛种地会变得轻松。easily表示“轻松地”，suddenly“突然地”、usually“通常”、exactly“确切地”均不符合句意。 【36题详解】 句意：到家后，你必须把你的一位邻居送到我这里。 根据后文老人说要给杰夫的邻居两头牛，可推断此处老人让杰夫带来一位邻居。neighbors表示“邻居”，family“家人”、friends“朋友”、relatives“亲戚”均与后文语境不符。 【37题详解】 句意：你为什么要见我的邻居？ 结合上文老人让杰夫带邻居过来，杰夫对此感到疑惑，询问老人为何要见自己的邻居。meet表示“遇见、拜见”，invite“邀请”、serve“服务”、praise“赞扬”均不符合语境。 【38题详解】 句意：你知道你的问题是什么吗？ 后文老人指出杰夫的问题不是贫穷而是嫉妒，由此可知此处是询问杰夫自身的问题。problem表示“问题”，opinion“观点”、result“结果”、reason“原因”均不符合句意。 【39题详解】 句意：如果你对自己所拥有的感到满足，你或许会成为世界上最幸福的人。 结合全文，老人劝导杰夫不要嫉妒他人，要知足常乐。satisfied表示“满足的”，concerned“担忧的”、bored“无聊的”、angry“生气的”均不符合语境。 【40题详解】 句意：他承诺自己永远不会再嫉妒别人。 杰夫意识到了自己的问题，下定决心改正缺点。promised表示“承诺、许诺”，refused“拒绝”、suggested“建议”、imagined“想象”均不符合语境。 四、阅读理解（本大题共20小题，每小题2分，共40分） A Welcome to our bookstore.

This new kind of robots is created by China on its own and known as “robot wolves”. ② For the design idea, “robot wolves” come from real wolves in nature. Real wolves have sharp eyes. They also have fast movements and quick minds. However, what makes real wolves special is their teamwork when they hunt. According to that, CSIG (中国兵器装备集团公司) developed this new “iron fighter”. ③ For key technology, robot wolves have small sensors, radars (雷达) and cameras on their heads. They can “see” everything nearby and collect information from the environment fast. Also, with four metal legs, they can move easily on rough land like mountains and broken buildings — places where traditional robots often can’t reach. Besides, they use AI to make its own choices and plan where to go — no human control is needed at all. ④ With the key technology, the robot wolves are famous for their use in the military (军队). Working together, they are able to make fights safer without wasting time or energy. When they act, each has a clear job: ·Reconnaissance (侦察) Wolves are the team’s “eyes”. Within 2,000 meters, they can find goals, tell what the team needs to do, and send information back quickly. ·Attack Wolves are the “front-line” fighters. They move like snakes to find the best place to shoot, and use light guns to attack bad people. ·Transport and Support Wolves are the “logistics (后勤) helpers”. They follow the team and can help carry up to 20 kg of things. ⑤ In daily life, they can also help. After earthquakes or fires, they go into dangerous places to look for people or carry heavy things. What’s more, they can be teaching tools for AI and robot technology, helping teenagers get more interested in science. They help with science research as well — someday, they may help scientists explore other planets or the deep ocean. ⑥ By learning from nature and using new technology, robot wolves not only show how China’s robot technology is developing, but also how technology can help people and explore the world in amazing ways. 46. What gave CSIG the idea to make “robot wolves”? A. The fast movements of the real wolves. B. The teamwork of the real wolves. C. The quick minds of the real wolves. D. The sharp eyes of the real wolves. 47. According to paragraph 5, how are robot wolves used in daily life now? ① To search for people who are still alive after earthquakes. ② To transport daily vegetables and fruits to families. ③ To take part in planet exploration projects. ④ To serve as teaching tools for AI and robot technology. A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①④ D. ③④ 48. Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with? A. Robot wolves show how China’s technology influences military and daily life. B. Robot wolves will take the place of human soldiers in the future. C. Learning from nature is a useless way to develop technology. D. Robot wolves won’t be able to work in difficult situations like in the deep ocean. 49. The underlined word “sensor” in the sentence probably means ________. A. A device used to measure physical properties (特性) (like light, sound) and send signals B. A small screen used to display pictures or data from the robot C. A tool used to store large amounts of information for the robot D. A part used to make sounds so the robot can communicate with others 50. Which of the following shows the structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】46. B 47. C 48. A 49. A 50.

It was my son’s birthday so we ordered a non-smoking table at your restaurant for 7:30 p.m. We arrived on time but were told that our table was not yet ready. At last, we had to eat in the smoking area. A lot of people were smoking so it was uncomfortable and unhealthy. The first waitress, Janet, was very polite and helpful. She gave us free drinks for waiting so long. Our food also came quickly and looked fresh and tasty. When my wife had eaten most of her meal, she found a little insect in her vegetables. She was surprised and wanted to leave. The waitress said sorry and took the food away. We asked for the bill, expecting not to pay for my wife’s meal. Nobody came. After 15 minutes, I asked to see the manager. The head waiter told us that he was on holiday! I complained again about the terrible insect. He told me Janet had finished work. He didn’t believe my story and gave me a bill for the three meals including my wife’s. I argued with him but had to pay in the end. The waitress, Janet, was always friendly, but I would like an apology from your impolite head waiter and a full refund (退款) for our meal. It costs sixty-eight dollars. Until then, I will not be eating at your restaurant or introducing it to anyone. You can contact me at 742-3254 or through e-mail if you want more information. Thank you for your attention.

Are the north and the south very different? I think the biggest difference between the north and the south is the language. Each place in China has its dialect (方言). Luckily, China has done a good job in teaching people putonghua. It is reported that the putonghua popularity rate has increased from 70 percent to 80.72 percent in the past ten years. How amazing it is that so many people can speak one language! Besides, I think the food is quite different. I grew up in Tianjin, which is famous for baozi and jianbing. In 2012, my parents took me to travel in Hunan. I was surprised by the rice there. It was not as sweet and glutinous (粘的) as that in the north. This is because of the difference in water and soil conditions. You can also find some differences in traditional Chinese poems. China’s poet Su Shi once wrote about the West Lake in Hangzhou: “The brimming waves delight the eye on sunny days; The dimming hills present a rare view in rainy haze. (水光潋滟晴方好，山色空蒙雨亦奇。)” Hangzhou is warm and wet, with beautiful lake scenery. But if you read poems about the north, you’ll find “In boundless desert lonely smoke rises straight”. Those are quite different scenes, aren’t they? 71. What’s the biggest difference between the north and the south in China? _________________________________________________________ 72. What is Tianjin famous for, based on the passage? _________________________________________________________ 73. Why was the rice in the south not as sweet and glutinous as that in the north? _________________________________________________________ 74. Which poem describes the scene in the north, according to the passage? _________________________________________________________ 75. How many kinds of differences are mentioned (被提及) in the article? _________________________________________________________ B.书面表达 76. 在跨文化交流中，中国文化正吸引着全球的目光。假如你是李华，你收到英国朋友James的来信。在信中，他和朋友们对中国人如何庆祝中秋节感到非常好奇，并特别想了解你个人的中秋节假期体验。请你给James回信讲述你今年是如何度过中秋节的。 要求： (1)字数80—120词； (2)文中不能出现自己的姓名和所在学校的名称。 Dear James, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【答案】71. The biggest difference between the north and the south in China is the language. 72. Tianjin is famous for baozi and jianbing. 73. Because of the difference in water and soil conditions. 74. The poem “In boundless desert lonely smoke rises straight” describes the scene in the north. 75. Three kinds of differences are mentioned in the article. 76. 参考范文 Dear James, I’m glad to tell you about how I spent the Mid-Autumn Festival this year. The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month, a time for family reunion. On that day, my family got together for a big dinner. We ate mooncakes of different flavors, like red bean and lotus seed, while admiring the bright full moon. We chatted about our daily life and shared funny stories. For me, this festival is not just about delicious food. It’s a time to feel the warmth of family. I really enjoyed the peaceful and happy moment.

According to that, CSIG (中国兵器装备集团公司) developed this new “iron fighter”. ③ For key technology, robot wolves have small sensors, radars (雷达) and cameras on their heads. They can “see” everything nearby and collect information from the environment fast. Also, with four metal legs, they can move easily on rough land like mountains and broken buildings — places where traditional robots often can’t reach. Besides, they use AI to make its own choices and plan where to go — no human control is needed at all. ④ With the key technology, the robot wolves are famous for their use in the military (军队). Working together, they are able to make fights safer without wasting time or energy. When they act, each has a clear job: ·Reconnaissance (侦察) Wolves are the team’s “eyes”. Within 2,000 meters, they can find goals, tell what the team needs to do, and send information back quickly. ·Attack Wolves are the “front-line” fighters. They move like snakes to find the best place to shoot, and use light guns to attack bad people. ·Transport and Support Wolves are the “logistics (后勤) helpers”. They follow the team and can help carry up to 20 kg of things. ⑤ In daily life, they can also help. After earthquakes or fires, they go into dangerous places to look for people or carry heavy things. What’s more, they can be teaching tools for AI and robot technology, helping teenagers get more interested in science. They help with science research as well — someday, they may help scientists explore other planets or the deep ocean. ⑥ By learning from nature and using new technology, robot wolves not only show how China’s robot technology is developing, but also how technology can help people and explore the world in amazing ways. 46. What gave CSIG the idea to make “robot wolves”? A. The fast movements of the real wolves. B. The teamwork of the real wolves. C. The quick minds of the real wolves. D. The sharp eyes of the real wolves. 47. According to paragraph 5, how are robot wolves used in daily life now? ① To search for people who are still alive after earthquakes. ② To transport daily vegetables and fruits to families. ③ To take part in planet exploration projects. ④ To serve as teaching tools for AI and robot technology. A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①④ D. ③④ 48. Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with? A. Robot wolves show how China’s technology influences military and daily life. B. Robot wolves will take the place of human soldiers in the future. C. Learning from nature is a useless way to develop technology. D. Robot wolves won’t be able to work in difficult situations like in the deep ocean. 49. The underlined word “sensor” in the sentence probably means ________. A. A device used to measure physical properties (特性) (like light, sound) and send signals B. A small screen used to display pictures or data from the robot C. A tool used to store large amounts of information for the robot D. A part used to make sounds so the robot can communicate with others 50. Which of the following shows the structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. C Dear Mr. Price, I have eaten in your restaurant many times and have always been happy with the food and service, but what happened last Sunday made me very angry. It was my son’s birthday so we ordered a non-smoking table at your restaurant for 7:30 p.m. We arrived on time but were told that our table was not yet ready. At last, we had to eat in the smoking area. A lot of people were smoking so it was uncomfortable and unhealthy. The first waitress, Janet, was very polite and helpful. She gave us free drinks for waiting so long. Our food also came quickly and looked fresh and tasty. When my wife had eaten most of her meal, she found a little insect in her vegetables. She was surprised and wanted to leave. The waitress said sorry and took the food away. We asked for the bill, expecting not to pay for my wife’s meal. Nobody came. After 15 minutes, I asked to see the manager. The head waiter told us that he was on holiday! I complained again about the terrible insect. He told me Janet had finished work. He didn’t believe my story and gave me a bill for the three meals including my wife’s. I argued with him but had to pay in the end. The waitress, Janet, was always friendly, but I would like an apology from your impolite head waiter and a full refund (退款) for our meal. It costs sixty-eight dollars. Until then, I will not be eating at your restaurant or introducing it to anyone. You can contact me at 742-3254 or through e-mail if you want more information. Thank you for your attention.

Are the north and the south very different? I think the biggest difference between the north and the south is the language. Each place in China has its dialect (方言). Luckily, China has done a good job in teaching people putonghua. It is reported that the putonghua popularity rate has increased from 70 percent to 80.72 percent in the past ten years. How amazing it is that so many people can speak one language! Besides, I think the food is quite different. I grew up in Tianjin, which is famous for baozi and jianbing. In 2012, my parents took me to travel in Hunan. I was surprised by the rice there. It was not as sweet and glutinous (粘的) as that in the north. This is because of the difference in water and soil conditions. You can also find some differences in traditional Chinese poems. China’s poet Su Shi once wrote about the West Lake in Hangzhou: “The brimming waves delight the eye on sunny days; The dimming hills present a rare view in rainy haze. (水光潋滟晴方好，山色空蒙雨亦奇。)” Hangzhou is warm and wet, with beautiful lake scenery. But if you read poems about the north, you’ll find “In boundless desert lonely smoke rises straight”. Those are quite different scenes, aren’t they? 71. What’s the biggest difference between the north and the south in China? _________________________________________________________ 72.
