It was a September day, and as usual, the halls of Pine High School were filled with excitement. Today was the first day of high school for a freshman, Jamie. Jamie had always been a bit of a shy kid, but she had always loved her studies. She made up her mind to make the most of her high school years, but she knew that it wouldn’t be easy.
As she walked down the hallways, Jamie couldn’t help but feel worried. The older students seemed so confident, while she felt small and unimportant. But Jamie was determined to succeed, no matter what challenges came her way.
It wasn’t long before Jamie was faced with a challenge. In her first week of school, she was assigned a project that required a lot of research and planning. Jamie tried her best, but she soon realized that she was in over her head. As she struggled to complete the project, Jamie began to doubt herself. She wondered if she was cut out for high school. But then, something great happened.
Jamie’s classmates began to notice how hard she was working and they started to offer her help and support. They gave her advice on how to manage her time better, and they shared their tips for getting through assignments. With their help, Jamie was able to complete the project on time and with great success.
From that day on, Jamie realized that high school was not a challenge to be faced alone. And as she grew more confident in herself and her abilities, she knew that she was destined (注定) for great things.

Earth, our home, is the third planet from the sun. While scientists continue to hunt for life beyond Earth, our home planet remains the only place for human beings to live. On it, everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of lived out their lives. That’s home. That’s us.
Our Earth is a book written by Jane Calame. It’s also a helpful guide to caring for our planet. Our planet is unique for many reasons, but its fresh water and oxygen (氧气) are two key things. Water covers about 71% of Earth’s surface, with most of that water lying in our planet’s oceans. About a fifth of the air is oxygen, produced by plants. But water and air pollution is becoming more and more serious. The state of the natural world is alarming, making it a must for us to be knowledgeable about. But the future of Earth doesn’t have to be a negative one. This amazing children’s book has some cheerful pictures as it explains the planet we live on.
By providing ideas for ways in which we can all look after Earth in a workable and child-friendly manner (方式), Our Earth is the perfect book for educating environmentalists or any member of the next generation. The delightful (令人愉快的) pictures and easy-to-understand language make the underlying message in this book simple, and children aged eight or above will enjoy reading it.
Whether you choose to walk and ride your bike to school, or you’re sorting out your rubbish, or live a greener life with a good habit of little things, Our Earth teaches the reader that we can all play a part in shaping the future of the planet, no matter how small the action or how young the person is.
28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To present a new discovery. B. To show we are a family on Earth.
C. To introduce the topic of the text. D. To explain the secret of Earth.
29. What makes Our Earth a perfect book to educate children?
A. Its clear ideas. B. Its writing style.
C. Its colourful pictures. D. Its useful knowledge.
30. What may the author agree with?
A. Every small act counts. B. Strike while the iron is hot.
C. He who laughs last laughs best. D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.
31. Where is the text most probably taken from?
A. A review of a play. B. A story on the Earth.
C. An introduction to a book. D. An advertisement for an activity.
D
Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts. The microorganisms(微生物) from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem? It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It is depending on NASA HUNCH high school classrooms, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport, New York.
HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution(解决方案). “We don’t give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers,” says Florence Gold, a project manager.
“There are no tests,” Gordon says. “There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than ‘Are you working towards your goal?’ Basically, it’s ‘I’ve got to produce this product and then, at the end of year, present it to NASA.’ Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and...it’s not a very nice thing at times. It’s a hard business review of your product.”
Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact(影响) on college admissions and practical life skills. “These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back. I don’t teach.” And that annoying bacteria? Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.
32. What do we know about the bacteria in the International Space Station?
A. They are hard to get rid of. B. They lead to air pollution.
C. They appear in different forms. D. They damage the instruments.
33. What is the purpose of the HUNCH program?
A. To strengthen teacher-student relationships.
B. To sharpen students’ communication skills.
C. To allow students to experience zero gravity.
D. To link space technology with school education.
34. What do the NASA engineers do for the students in the program?
A. Check their product. B. Guide project designs.
C. Adjust work schedules. D. Grade their homework.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. NASA: The Home of Astronauts
B. Space: The Final Homework Frontier
C. Nature: An Outdoor Classroom
D. HUNCH: A College Admission Reform
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
Starting high school can be both exciting and challenging. It’s a time of new beginnings, new friends, and new responsibilities. Here are some tips to help you make a smooth transition.
Get organized from day one. High school brings more subjects, more homework, and more deadlines than middle school. ____36____ Keep a planner or use a digital calendar to track assignments, tests, and important dates. Set aside a specific time each day for homework and review. This simple habit will prevent last-minute panic.
Build positive relationships with your teachers. Unlike middle school, high school teachers often see hundreds of students each day. ____37____ Don’t be afraid to ask questions in class or seek extra help after school. Showing that you are motivated and engaged can make a big difference.

One of the best ways to feel connected to your new school is to join clubs, sports teams, or volunteer groups. ____38____ It also helps you develop new skills and interests outside the classroom. Don’t worry if you don’t find your perfect fit right away—try different activities and see what you enjoy.
____39____ Many students feel pressure to fit in, but the friends who accept you for who you are will be the ones worth keeping. Don’t change yourself just to impress others.
Take care of your health. ____40____ Eat balanced meals, get enough sleep, and make time for exercise. A healthy body supports a healthy mind, and both are essential for academic success.
A. These activities can help you meet people who share similar interests.
B. Be yourself.
C. Make a good first impression on the first day of school.
D. This means you need to take responsibility for your learning.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Emily White was born seventeen years ago. She was born with many physical issues affecting her tiny body. Some of her organs, bones and muscles were out of shape. No one expected her to survive. She did make it, but she had a strange figure that everyone could recognize, even from a distance.
In Emily’s hometown, there was a yearly outdoor performance in the school auditorium (观众席) at Christmas. It had been performed for so many years that it had become one of the most important events of the Christmas season for many of the townsfolk. Each year, many people tried out for the show, but most were turned away. Only the best performers were invited to take part.
Emily had a beautiful singing voice. Last year, she asked Mrs. Owens, her music teacher, if she could join in the performance. Without letting her sing, Mrs. Owens took a look at Emily’s body and said, “Child, you just don’t fit. Everyone would stare at you and that would make you uncomfortable. It would make them uncomfortable too.”
Mrs. Owens sent Emily back through the door of the choral (合唱队的) room without even hearing her sing a single note. Hurt and upset, Emily decided never to try out again. But then Mrs. Owens retired, and the following school year, a new music teacher arrived, named Mr. Butler.
He had heard about Emily and suggested that she give it a try.
Emily didn’t want to be refused again, so she was a little hesitant to say yes. As Emily struggled with her decision, the door was pushed open and Mr. Butler said, “Emily, you’re next.” Although she was nervous, Emily did as Mr. Butler told her to do. Mr. Butler sat by the piano to accompany Emily. When Emily finished her test performance, she thanked Mr Butler and knew the result would be posted on the door of the choral room the next day.
Emily couldn’t sleep that night. She was worried that she would never fit in. By the next morning, the stress was too much to bear and she started to feel sick.
续写要求:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room.

Paragraph 2:
Finally, the day of performance came.

M: That’s great, Carol. What made you want to get a dog?
W: Well, I went to my sister’s house to see the dog she got last week, and I realized how much I wanted one after I played with it. She got a big dog, but I want a small dog like Spot — one that loves to run and play outside.
M: Spot isn’t small anymore. It was a year ago when you last saw him. He has grown a lot since then. He is still gentle, but he is also very loud when he’s running around. My downstairs neighbors do not like Spot.
W: I have carpets in my apartment, so I think that would help reduce the noise. You should consider getting carpets to solve that problem.
M: No, I don’t want to get any because my apartment gets too hot in the summer, and Spot might get sick.

【原文】W: A new museum of laughter in Croatia helps people cope with the stress of modern life. At the HaHaHouse in Zagreb, Croatia, visitors walk into a cloud of white smoke to “wash away” their worries before climbing into a “giant washing machine”, and then they move down a slide into a space filled with little white balls where the fun begins.
Forty-three-year-old Andrea Golubić is the museum’s creator. She wanted to heal people through laughter. She said a photo of herself at age seven inspired her. “I was constantly joking as a kid,” she added. The museum has eight interactive zones. One features cheerful rubber chickens singing songs like ABBA’s “Dancing Queen”. Another lets visitors wrestle in large clothes. There’s also a room on the history of humor, from ancient times to today, shown through theaters, films, and the Internet. Singer Zorica Bucic said the museum was perfect for today’s times. “Entering here is like entering childhood, being relieved of all problems,” she said. Bucic added that if people could come to the museum often, they wouldn’t need to visit a psychologist.

It was a September day, and as usual, the halls of Pine High School were filled with excitement. Today was the first day of high school for a freshman, Jamie. Jamie had always been a bit of a shy kid, but she had always loved her studies. She made up her mind to make the most of her high school years, but she knew that it wouldn’t be easy.
As she walked down the hallways, Jamie couldn’t help but feel worried. The older students seemed so confident, while she felt small and unimportant. But Jamie was determined to succeed, no matter what challenges came her way.
It wasn’t long before Jamie was faced with a challenge. In her first week of school, she was assigned a project that required a lot of research and planning. Jamie tried her best, but she soon realized that she was in over her head. As she struggled to complete the project, Jamie began to doubt herself. She wondered if she was cut out for high school. But then, something great happened.
Jamie’s classmates began to notice how hard she was working and they started to offer her help and support. They gave her advice on how to manage her time better, and they shared their tips for getting through assignments. With their help, Jamie was able to complete the project on time and with great success.
From that day on, Jamie realized that high school was not a challenge to be faced alone. And as she grew more confident in herself and her abilities, she knew that she was destined (注定) for great things.
24. What can we know about Jamie on the first day of high school?
A. She was no longer shy as usual. B. She was worried but determined.
C. She was filled with confidence. D. She lost heart and was disappointed.
25. What does the phrase “in over her head” in Para. 3 mean?
A. Very confident. B. Deeply focused.
C. Nearly successful. D. Unable to deal with.
26. What did Jamie’s classmates do after noticing how busy she was?

C. They did her homework for her. D. They volunteered to give her a hand.
27. What lesson can we learn from Jamie’s story?

C. Two heads are better than one. D. Where there is a will, there is a way.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. D 27. C
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了新生Jamie在高中第一天既紧张又坚定,面对挑战时一度自我怀疑,最终在同学们的帮助下顺利完成项目并逐渐变得自信的故事,传达了团结互助和相信自己的道理。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“As she walked down the hallways, Jamie couldn't help but feel worried. The older students seemed so confident, while she felt small and unimportant. But Jamie was determined to succeed, no matter what challenges came her way. (当Jamie走过走廊时,她忍不住感到担忧。高年级学生看起来很自信,而她却觉得自己渺小且不重要。但Jamie决心要成功,无论遇到什么挑战。)”可知,Jamie在高中第一天既担忧又坚定。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“Jamie tried her best, but she soon realized that she was in over her head. As she struggled to complete the project, Jamie began to doubt herself. (Jamie尽力了,但她很快意识到自己in over her head。当她努力完成项目时,Jamie开始怀疑自己。)”可知,她努力尝试却开始自我怀疑,说明她发现自己无法应对这个项目。所以短语“in over her head”意为“无法应对、力不从心”。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Jamie's classmates began to notice how hard she was working and they started to offer her help and support. They gave her advice on how to manage her time better, and they shared their tips for getting through assignments. (Jamie的同学们开始注意到她有多努力,于是开始主动提供帮助和支持。他们给她建议如何更好地管理时间,并分享完成作业的技巧。)”可知,同学们在注意到Jamie的困难后,主动伸出援手帮助她。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“From that day on, Jamie realized that high school was not a challenge to be faced alone. And as she grew more confident in herself and her abilities, she knew that she was destined (注定) for great things. (从那天起,Jamie意识到高中的挑战不应该独自面对。随着她对自己和自己的能力越来越自信,她知道自己注定会成就大事。)”可知,Jamie在同学帮助下克服困难,说明团结合作比单打独斗更好。“Two heads are better than one”意为“三个臭皮匠,顶个诸葛亮”,符合文章主旨。

But the future of Earth doesn’t have to be a negative one. This amazing children’s book has some cheerful pictures as it explains the planet we live on.
By providing ideas for ways in which we can all look after Earth in a workable and child-friendly manner (方式), Our Earth is the perfect book for educating environmentalists or any member of the next generation. The delightful (令人愉快的) pictures and easy-to-understand language make the underlying message in this book simple, and children aged eight or above will enjoy reading it.
Whether you choose to walk and ride your bike to school, or you’re sorting out your rubbish, or live a greener life with a good habit of little things, Our Earth teaches the reader that we can all play a part in shaping the future of the planet, no matter how small the action or how young the person is.

【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Our Earth is a book written by Jane Calame.(《我们的地球》是简·卡拉姆写的一本书)”以及第三段“By providing ideas for ways in which we can all look after Earth in a workable and child- friendly manner (方式), Our Earth is the perfect book for educating environmentalists or any member of the next generation.(《我们的地球》一书为我们提供了一些可行的、对儿童友好的方式来照顾地球的方法,是一本教育环保主义者或任何下一代成员的完美书籍)”可推知,文章可能选自对《我们的地球》这本书的介绍。故选C。

Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts. The microorganisms(微生物) from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem? It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It is depending on NASA HUNCH high school classrooms, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport, New York.
HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution(解决方案). “We don’t give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers,” says Florence Gold, a project manager.
“There are no tests,” Gordon says. “There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than ‘Are you working towards your goal?’ Basically, it’s ‘I’ve got to produce this product and then, at the end of year, present it to NASA.’ Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and...it’s not a very nice thing at times. It’s a hard business review of your product.”
Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact(影响) on college admissions and practical life skills. “These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back. I don’t teach.” And that annoying bacteria? Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.
32. What do we know about the bacteria in the International Space Station?
A. They are hard to get rid of. B. They lead to air pollution.
C. They appear in different forms. D. They damage the instruments.
33. What is the purpose of the HUNCH program?
A. To strengthen teacher-student relationships.
B. To sharpen students’ communication skills.
C. To allow students to experience zero gravity.
D. To link space technology with school education.
34. What do the NASA engineers do for the students in the program?
A. Check their product. B. Guide project designs.
C. Adjust work schedules. D. Grade their homework.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. NASA: The Home of Astronauts
B. Space: The Final Homework Frontier
C. Nature: An Outdoor Classroom
D. HUNCH: A College Admission Reform
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【分析】本文为说明文。本文介绍了美国国家航空航天局的HUNCH计划。参与这个计划的高中生制作供美国国家航空航天局使用的产品,此计划的目的是把航天技术与学校教育结合起来,把空间技术与带进课堂,与学校教育相结合,这项计划实施结果显示会影响到学生的生活和大学录取。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的Bacteria are annoying problem for astronauts. The microorganisms form our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week.可知,细菌对宇航员来说是个令人讨厌的问题。这种来自我们身体的微生物在国际空间站的表面不受控制地生长,宇航员每周要花几个小时来清理它们。也就是说它们很难去掉。其中的“the microorganisms”包括“bacteria”。由此可知, A项正确。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution(解决方案).可知,HUNCH旨在把高中教室和NASA的工程师联系起来。Gordon的学生一直在研究如何在零重力下杀死细菌;结合最后一段中的Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.可知,学生每天都给NASA的工程师发邮件一起探讨(如何杀死空间站的细菌这一空间技术)这个问题。由此可推断出HUNCH program的目的把空间技术与学校教育相结合。故D项正确。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and...it’s not a very nice thing at times. It’s a hard business review of your product.”可知,NASA的工程师会亲自审核学生们所做的产品。故A项正确。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。文章以国际空间站里的微生物很难清除开头,引出宇航员们解决此问题的途径——借助美国国家航空航天局的HUNCH高中班,此计划的目的是把航天技术与学校教育结合起来。在这项计划里,学生们通过homework(制作供美国国家航空航天局使用的产品)探索无疆的太空,因此“太空:最后的功课疆域”最适合做文章的标题。故选B。

Don’t worry if you don’t find your perfect fit right away—try different activities and see what you enjoy.
____39____ Many students feel pressure to fit in, but the friends who accept you for who you are will be the ones worth keeping. Don’t change yourself just to impress others.
Take care of your health. ____40____ Eat balanced meals, get enough sleep, and make time for exercise. A healthy body supports a healthy mind, and both are essential for academic success.
A. These activities can help you meet people who share similar interests.
B. Be yourself.

D. This means you need to take responsibility for your learning.

本段主旨是“Get organized from day one.(从第一天起保持有条理。)”,空前“High school brings more subjects, more homework, and more deadlines than middle school.( 高中比初中有更多的科目、更多的作业和更多的截止日期。)”说明高中相比初中有更多科目、作业和截止日期,空后“Keep a planner or use a digital calendar to track assignments, tests, and important dates.( 使用记事本或电子日历来记录作业、考试和重要日期。)”给出了用计划本、固定每日学习时间等具体做法,核心围绕“时间安排”展开。G 选项“Plan your time wisely.( 明智规划你的时间。)”既承接了“任务变多”的背景,又引出了后文具体的时间管理方法,逻辑衔接顺畅。
【37题详解】
空前“Unlike middle school, high school teachers often see hundreds of students each day.( 与初中不同,高中老师每天通常要面对数百名学生。)”指出高中老师每天要面对上百名学生,空后建议学生主动提问、课后寻求帮助、展现学习积极性,核心是“学习的主动权在学生自己手中”。D 选项“This means you need to take responsibility for your learning.(这意味着你需要对自己的学习负责。)”完美承接“老师精力有限”的前提,也呼应了后文“主动学习”的建议。
【38题详解】
空前“One of the best ways to feel connected to your new school is to join clubs, sports teams, or volunteer groups.( 融入新学校的最佳方式之一就是加入社团、体育队或志愿者团体。)”建议参加社团、运动队、志愿团体等校园活动,空后“It also helps you develop new skills and interests outside the classroom.( 这也有助于你在课堂之外培养新的技能和兴趣。)”用 It also helps... 说明活动的第二个好处(培养技能与兴趣),因此空格处应填写活动的第一个好处。A 选项“These activities can help you meet people who share similar interests.( 这些活动能帮你结识志趣相投的人。)”符合“活动好处”的语境,与后文的 also形成递进关系。
【39题详解】
空格是本段的主旨句,后文“Many students feel pressure to fit in, but the friends who accept you for who you are will be the ones worth keeping. Don’t change yourself just to impress others.( 许多学生都感到压力,想要融入集体,但真正值得珍惜的,是那些接纳你本来样子的朋友。不要为了取悦他人而改变自己。)”核心内容为“不必为了融入而改变自己,接受真实的你的朋友才值得交往”,围绕“做自己”展开。B 选项“Be yourself.( 做你自己。)”精准概括了本段主旨,适合作为段落小标题。
【40题详解】
本段主旨是“Take care of your health.(关注健康。)”,空后“Eat balanced meals, get enough sleep, and make time for exercise.( 均衡饮食、保证充足睡眠,并抽出时间锻炼身体。)”给出了均衡饮食、充足睡眠、坚持锻炼等具体健康建议,空格需要承接主旨并引出具体做法。E 选项“High school can be stressful, so don’t forget to take care of yourself.(高中可能压力很大,别忘了照顾好自己。)”贴合“健康”主题,自然引出后文的具体健康建议。

第二节 语法填空(共10个小题,每小题1.5分,满分15分)
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
When I was in France, I ____56____ (try) to practise my language skills. However, my ____57____ (break) French was so poor that sometimes I couldn’t make myself understood in a conversation, so it ended ____58____ a complete communication breakdown. I did my best to pronounce words clearly but of course I was not a native ____59____ (speak), so people often misunderstood me.
The other day, I met someone from another part of the country ____60____ had such a strong accent that at times I found it almost impossible to understand. ____61____ was hard to believe that we shared the same language, to be honest. And it wasn’t just the accent — as ____62____ matter of fact, he was speaking a different dialect and using slang (俚语), ____63____ (make) it difficult for me to follow him. We had to ask someone ____64____ (translate) for us.
When you travel, there’s sometimes a language barrier (障碍) that makes communication difficult. But I’ve found that body language, while not exactly the same around the world, is ____65____ (wide) used, which means that we can “talk” to other people. Gestures and facial expressions allow us to show people that we don’t understand, that we want a particular thing, or whatever.

57. broken 58. up
59. speaker
60. who##that
61. It 62. a
63. making 64. to translate

【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了作者在法国因语言障碍而沟通困难,以及肢体语言有助于交流的经历。
【56题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:我在法国的时候,努力练习自己的语言技能。根据时间状语“When I was in France”可知,句子描述过去的动作,应用一般过去时,空处填try的过去式tried。
【57题详解】
考查形容词。句意:然而,我蹩脚的法语太差,有时在对话里都没法让别人听懂我的意思,所以最终以彻底的沟通失败告终。空处修饰名词French,需用break的形容词形式broken作定语,表示“不流利的、蹩脚的”。
【58题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:我蹩脚的法语太差,有时在对话里都没法让别人听懂我的意思,所以最终以彻底的沟通失败告终。固定短语end up表示“最终成为;以……告终”,空处填介词up。
【59题详解】
考查名词。句意:我尽全力把单词读清楚,但我毕竟不是母语使用者,所以人们经常误解我。空处作表语,表示“说话者”,且前面有a native修饰,应用名词speaker,native speaker意为“母语使用者”。
【60题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:前几天我遇到一个来自该国另一地区的人,他口音特别重,有时我几乎完全听不懂。空处引导限制性定语从句,先行词someone指人,在从句中作主语,用关系代词who或that引导定语从句。
【61题详解】
考查代词。句意:说实话,很难相信我们说的是同一种语言。句中使用固定句型“It is/was + adj. + to do sth.”,表示“做某事是……的”,空处作形式主语,应用It,真正的主语是后面的不定式短语to believe that we shared the same language。
【62题详解】
考查冠词。句意:而且不只是口音——事实上,他说的是另一种方言还在用俚语,让我很难跟上他的话。固定短语as a matter of fact表示“事实上”,空处填不定冠词a。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:而且不只是口音——事实上,他说的是另一种方言还在用俚语,让我很难跟上他的话。空处作结果状语,表示自然而然的结果,应用现在分词making。
【64题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:我们不得不请人给我们翻译。固定搭配ask sb. to do sth.表示“请求某人做某事”,空处填不定式to translate作宾语补足语。
【65题详解】
考查副词。句意:但我发现肢体语言虽然在世界各地不完全相同,却被广泛使用,这意味着我们可以和其他人“交流”。空处修饰动词used,应用副词widely作状语,表示“广泛地”。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Emily White was born seventeen years ago. She was born with many physical issues affecting her tiny body. Some of her organs, bones and muscles were out of shape. No one expected her to survive. She did make it, but she had a strange figure that everyone could recognize, even from a distance.
In Emily’s hometown, there was a yearly outdoor performance in the school auditorium (观众席) at Christmas. It had been performed for so many years that it had become one of the most important events of the Christmas season for many of the townsfolk. Each year, many people tried out for the show, but most were turned away. Only the best performers were invited to take part.
Emily had a beautiful singing voice. Last year, she asked Mrs. Owens, her music teacher, if she could join in the performance. Without letting her sing, Mrs. Owens took a look at Emily’s body and said, “Child, you just don’t fit. Everyone would stare at you and that would make you uncomfortable. It would make them uncomfortable too.”
Mrs. Owens sent Emily back through the door of the choral (合唱队的) room without even hearing her sing a single note. Hurt and upset, Emily decided never to try out again. But then Mrs. Owens retired, and the following school year, a new music teacher arrived, named Mr. Butler.
He had heard about Emily and suggested that she give it a try.
Emily didn’t want to be refused again, so she was a little hesitant to say yes. As Emily struggled with her decision, the door was pushed open and Mr. Butler said, “Emily, you’re next.” Although she was nervous, Emily did as Mr. Butler told her to do. Mr. Butler sat by the piano to accompany Emily. When Emily finished her test performance, she thanked Mr Butler and knew the result would be posted on the door of the choral room the next day.
Emily couldn’t sleep that night. She was worried that she would never fit in. By the next morning, the stress was too much to bear and she started to feel sick.
续写要求:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Finally, the day of performance came.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room. She was not rejected this time. Her name was posted at the top of the list. She, Emily White, was chosen to be the leading singer! She would sing alone in the performance. Emily couldn’t believe her eyes. There must be some mistake. But Mr. Buttler said to her with determined eyes, “Emily, I choose you because you should perform the part — your voice is unusual. Believe in yourself.” Greatly encouraged, Emily practiced really hard.
Paragraph 2:
Finally, the day of performance came. Standing in front of the line, Emily felt her throat tight and her palms sweating. When the curtain opened up, the eyes of the whole audience fell upon Emily. “Emily White!” Someone whispered. Then, along with the first note of music, Emily began to sing her heart out. Her voice was like a nightingale ringing in the auditorium. Applause! Emily felt so happy and comfortable. She was shining on the stage. Emily White, with so many birth problems in her body, was an angel.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Emily White生来有很多生理问题,影响着她小小的身体。但是她有一副美丽的嗓音,一开始想要参加圣诞节演出但是被Owens老师拒绝了。下一年Emily在Butler老师的鼓励下,再次申请参加演出,结果被选为主唱,完成了演出。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“第二天,Emily紧张地看了看合唱教室门上的名单”可知,第一段可描写Emily被选为主唱,受到鼓舞,刻苦地进行练习。
②由第二段首句内容“终于,演出的日子到了”可知,第二段可描写Emily演出的经过,以及观众的反应。
2.续写线索:紧张查看名单——选为主唱——刻苦练习——演出日到来——演出经过——获得成功
3.词汇激活
行为类
激励:encourage/motivate
开始:begin/start
拒绝:reject/turn down
情绪类
坚定的:determined/firm
快乐的:happy/delighted
