For example,most of us remember our parents’ telling us to eat more of certain foods or not to do certain things. Is there any truth in these teachings? Some of them agree with present medical thinking,but others have not passed the test of time. Did your mother ever tell you to eat your carrots because they are good for your eyes? Scientists now report that eating carrots can help prevent a serious eye disease called macular degeneration. Eating just one carrot a day can reduce the possibility of getting this disease by 40%. Garlic is good for you,too. It can kill the type of virus that causes colds. Unfortunately, not all of Mom’s advice passed the test of medical studies. For example, generations of children have been told not to go swimming within an hour after eating. But research suggests that there is no danger in doing so. Do sweets cause tooth problems?Well, yes and no. Sticky sweets made with grains(谷物) tend to cause more problems than sweets made with simple sugars. Even though science can tell us that some of our traditional beliefs don’t hold_water,_there is still a lot of truth in the old wives’ tales. After all, much of this knowledge has been accumulated (积累) from thousands of years of experience in family health care. We should respect this body of knowledge even as we search for clear scientific support to prove it true or false. 4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text? A. Sticky sweets are damaging to our teeth. B. Eating garlic is good for our eyes. C. Swimming after a meal is dangerous. D. Carrots prevent people from catching colds. 5. The author develops the third paragraph mainly________. A. by cause and effect B. by order in space C. by examples D. by order in time 6. The phrase“ hold water” in the last paragraph most probably means“________”. A. to be valuable B. to be believable C. to be admirable D. to be suitable 7. What is the author’s attitude towards“old wives’ tales”in the text? A. Subjective(主观的). B. Objective(客观的). C. Dissatisfied. D. Curious. C The computer is a powerful tool. With it, teachers can improve the classroom experience in a variety of ways. But misuse of the computer will probably result in disadvantages. To investigate the way technology is being used in our school district, I recently spoke with Jeanine Lowell, who teaches social studies at Lake Town Middle School. Mrs. Lowell informed me that computers have helped to increase students’ motivation and prepare them for life in a technological society. “These kids are probably going to be using some kind of computer system when they graduate from high school,” Lowell noted. “It’s important that we provide a proper introduction to them in the classroom.” Lowell also observed that the computers have made it easier to promote different areas of learning, so that students can work on a project or topic that relates to more than one subject. With all of these benefits, however, come a few shortcomings. Although Mrs. Lowell has nearly wallpapered her room with warnings that state: “The computer is NOT A TOY”, not everyone in the class agrees with this idea. Some students get easily distracted (分心) by the internet and are quite good at making it look as if they are doing work when they are really checking their email or watching videos. “You’ve got to be three steps ahead,” she told me, “if you want to stay on top of what they’re actually doing on the computer.” Some schools use some type of blocking software to ensure that students cannot access improper sites at school. More complex programs use a server-based, network-wide program instead of software that runs on personal computers. Research has shown that in a way these server-based blocking programs provide better security, because some students can disable the software on a personal computer. However, there is no replacement for the watchful eye of a good teacher like Jeanine Lowell. There are also no electronic cure-alls for any of education’s many challenges. Technology is a useful tool, but that is all it is: a tool. 8. Where is this passage most likely from? A. A newspaper. B. An advertisement. C. A novel. D. A diary. 9. Which of the following isn’t the benefit of computer use in the classroom? A. Improved motivation in the classroom. B. Opportunities for learning across different subjects. C. Increased preparation for the future use in the workplace. D. Convenience of sharing ideas with people living across the globe. 10. The best way to prevent students from accessing improper sites on school computers is to ______. A. post warning signs throughout the classroom B. use blocking software on personal computers C. monitor what students do on the computers carefully D. use server-based software programs on personal computers 11. What is the writer’s opinion on the use of computers in the classroom? A. It does more harm than good. B. It is only supported by experts. C. It contributes to teaching in some way. D. It is more beneficial to teachers than students. D Freshman year of high school is a big transition (过渡) for any student. Luckily, you’re not the only person going through this, and plenty of others have made the transition before you too. One of the ways in which high school is different from middle school or junior high the most is the higher expectations. You’ll find that you’re expected to keep closer track of your own schedule and responsibilities with fewer people checking up on you. At the same time, your classes are likely to become more challenging, and you might be participating in new school activities as well. Some students find it hard to keep up with everything at first, which is totally normal. One way to prepare in advance for these higher expectations is to make sure that you have organized schedules in place before you start high school. Another important skill for meeting these higher expectations is building a strong support network. No matter how strong a student you are, at some point you will need some help. Keeping healthy relationships with your friends and teachers is a great way to make sure that you have people who are willing to help when you need them. Try to get to know at least some of your teachers beyond your classroom communication. Be an active learner during class and stay after class to ask questions. Take advantage of email or class messaging systems. The better your teachers know you, the better prepared they’ll be to help when you need them. It’s important for you to keep in mind as you start high school that no one is perfect. Transitions are hard for everyone, and starting high school is a big transition. These challenges provide a great chance to reinvent (重塑) yourself. 12. In the author’s view, the biggest difference between high school and middle school is __________. A. different relationships B. the higher expectations C. high academic (学术的) achievement D. the higher pressure 13. Which of the following suggestion is not mentioned in the text? A. Careful schedules. B. Healthy relationships. C. Reinventing yourself. D. Using network information. 14. Who is the article written for? A. Students in junior school. B. Teachers in high school. C. Parents of high school students. D. Students in senior high school. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. How to Get Through the Transition of Freshman Year of High School B. How to Become an Active Learner in High School C. What to Prepare to Keep up with Everything in High School D. How to Meet Your Teacher’s High Expectations 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 The most successful people all have certain habits in their daily routines. ___16___Forming a new good habit can be a struggle, but it is well worth the effort.

Sticky sweets made with grains(谷物) tend to cause more problems than sweets made with simple sugars.可知，例如，一代又一代的孩子都被告知饭后一小时内不要去游泳。但研究表明，这样做没有危险。甜食会导致牙齿问题吗?是也不是。用谷物制成的粘糖比用单糖制成的糖容易引起更多的问题。由此判断这个自然段主要是举例子来展开短文的。故选C。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据there is still a lot of truth in the old wives’ tales..在老人言中仍然有很多真理。所以判断出前面想要表达尽管科学告诉我们有些传统的观念站不住脚，由此判断出划线词的意思是“可信的”。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通过我们阅读全文，根据最后一段Even though science can tell us that some of our traditional beliefs don’t hold_water,_ there is still a lot of truth in the old wives’ tales. After all, much of this knowledge has been accumulated (积累) from thousands of years of experience in family health care.可知尽管科学可以告诉我们，我们的一些传统信仰是站不住脚的，但在老人言的故事中仍然有很多真理。，毕竟，这些知识大部分是从几千年的家庭保健经验中积累起来的。由此判断出，作者对“老人言”的故事是客观的。故选B。 C The computer is a powerful tool. With it, teachers can improve the classroom experience in a variety of ways. But misuse of the computer will probably result in disadvantages. To investigate the way technology is being used in our school district, I recently spoke with Jeanine Lowell, who teaches social studies at Lake Town Middle School. Mrs. Lowell informed me that computers have helped to increase students’ motivation and prepare them for life in a technological society. “These kids are probably going to be using some kind of computer system when they graduate from high school,” Lowell noted. “It’s important that we provide a proper introduction to them in the classroom.” Lowell also observed that the computers have made it easier to promote different areas of learning, so that students can work on a project or topic that relates to more than one subject. With all of these benefits, however, come a few shortcomings. Although Mrs. Lowell has nearly wallpapered her room with warnings that state: “The computer is NOT A TOY”, not everyone in the class agrees with this idea. Some students get easily distracted (分心) by the internet and are quite good at making it look as if they are doing work when they are really checking their email or watching videos. “You’ve got to be three steps ahead,” she told me, “if you want to stay on top of what they’re actually doing on the computer.” Some schools use some type of blocking software to ensure that students cannot access improper sites at school. More complex programs use a server-based, network-wide program instead of software that runs on personal computers. Research has shown that in a way these server-based blocking programs provide better security, because some students can disable the software on a personal computer. However, there is no replacement for the watchful eye of a good teacher like Jeanine Lowell. There are also no electronic cure-alls for any of education’s many challenges. Technology is a useful tool, but that is all it is: a tool. 8. Where is this passage most likely from? A. A newspaper. B. An advertisement. C. A novel. D. A diary. 9. Which of the following isn’t the benefit of computer use in the classroom? A. Improved motivation in the classroom. B. Opportunities for learning across different subjects. C. Increased preparation for the future use in the workplace. D. Convenience of sharing ideas with people living across the globe. 10. The best way to prevent students from accessing improper sites on school computers is to ______. A. post warning signs throughout the classroom B. use blocking software on personal computers C. monitor what students do on the computers carefully D. use server-based software programs on personal computers 11. What is the writer’s opinion on the use of computers in the classroom? A. It does more harm than good. B. It is only supported by experts. C. It contributes to teaching in some way. D. It is more beneficial to teachers than students. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是议论文。文章论述了在教室里使用计算机教学的有利之处和不利之处。作者认为高科技只是一个有用的工具。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。文章论述了在教室里使用计算机教学的有利之处和不利之处。作者认为高科技只是一个有用的工具。文章最有可能来自于报纸。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“…come a few shortcomings. … Some students get easily distracted (分心) by the internet and are quite good at making it look as if they are doing work when they are really checking their email or watching videos.(也有一些缺点……一些学生容易被网络分心，他们很擅长让他们看起来好像正在学习，而他们却是真地在检查电子邮件或观看视频。)”可知，学生在教室里上网，与世界各地的人们分享观点，但这也会让学生分心。这是在教室使用电脑的不利之处。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段中“there is no replacement for the watchful eye of a good teacher like Jeanine Lowell.（像Jeanine Lowell这样的好老师的严格监督是无可替代的。）”可知，防止学生在学校电脑上访问不合适的网站的最好方法是老师仔细监视学生在电脑上做什么。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。文章最后一段中提到“Technology is a useful tool, but that is all it is: a tool. （高科技是一个有用的工具，但它只是一个工具）。” 由此可以推断，作者认为计算机在某种程度上对教学有帮助，但只是一个辅助的工具。故选C。 D Freshman year of high school is a big transition (过渡) for any student. Luckily, you’re not the only person going through this, and plenty of others have made the transition before you too. One of the ways in which high school is different from middle school or junior high the most is the higher expectations. You’ll find that you’re expected to keep closer track of your own schedule and responsibilities with fewer people checking up on you. At the same time, your classes are likely to become more challenging, and you might be participating in new school activities as well. Some students find it hard to keep up with everything at first, which is totally normal. One way to prepare in advance for these higher expectations is to make sure that you have organized schedules in place before you start high school. Another important skill for meeting these higher expectations is building a strong support network. No matter how strong a student you are, at some point you will need some help. Keeping healthy relationships with your friends and teachers is a great way to make sure that you have people who are willing to help when you need them. Try to get to know at least some of your teachers beyond your classroom communication. Be an active learner during class and stay after class to ask questions. Take advantage of email or class messaging systems. The better your teachers know you, the better prepared they’ll be to help when you need them. It’s important for you to keep in mind as you start high school that no one is perfect. Transitions are hard for everyone, and starting high school is a big transition. These challenges provide a great chance to reinvent (重塑) yourself. 12. In the author’s view, the biggest difference between high school and middle school is __________. A. different relationships B. the higher expectations C. high academic (学术的) achievement D. the higher pressure 13. Which of the following suggestion is not mentioned in the text? A. Careful schedules. B. Healthy relationships. C. Reinventing yourself. D. Using network information. 14. Who is the article written for? A. Students in junior school. B. Teachers in high school. C. Parents of high school students. D. Students in senior high school. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. How to Get Through the Transition of Freshman Year of High School B. How to Become an Active Learner in High School C. What to Prepare to Keep up with Everything in High School D. How to Meet Your Teacher’s High Expectations 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了高中与初中的最大区别在于更高的期望，并为高一新生提供了应对这一过渡期的建议。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“One of the ways in which high school is different from middle school or junior high the most is the higher expectations. (高中与初中最大的不同之一就是更高的期望)”可知，作者认为初高中最大的区别是更高的期望。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“One way to prepare in advance for these higher expectations is to make sure that you have organized schedules in place before you start high school.(提前为这些更高期望做准备的一种方法是确保在开始高中之前制定好有条理的时间表)”可知，A项“仔细的时间表”有提及；根据第五段中“Keeping healthy relationships with your friends and teachers is a great way to make sure that you have people who are willing to help when you need them.(与朋友和老师保持健康的关系是确保在你需要时有人愿意帮助你的好方法)”可知，B项“健康的人际关系”有提及；根据第六段中“Take advantage of email or class messaging systems.(利用电子邮件或班级信息系统)”可知，D项“使用网络信息”有提及。C项“重塑自我”并非文中给出的建议条目。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Freshman year of high school is a big transition (过渡) for any student. (高中一年级对任何学生来说都是一个巨大的过渡)”以及全文多处使用第二人称“you”来给出建议可知，这篇文章是写给正在经历或即将经历这一过渡期的高一新生(高中生)的。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Freshman year of high school is a big transition (过渡) for any student. (高中一年级对任何学生来说都是一个巨大的过渡)”以及最后一段中“Transitions are hard for everyone, and starting high school is a big transition. These challenges provide a great chance to reinvent (重塑) yourself. (过渡对每个人来说都是艰难的，而开始高中生活就是一个巨大的过渡。这些挑战提供了一个重塑自我的绝佳机会)”可知，文章首尾段均强调了高一是巨大的过渡期；同时，根据第四段中“One way to prepare in advance for these higher expectations is to make sure that you have organized schedules in place before you start high school. (提前为这些更高期望做准备的一种方法是确保在开始高中之前制定好有条理的时间表)”、第五段中“Another important skill for meeting these higher expectations is building a strong support network. (满足这些更高期望的另一个重要技能是建立强大的支持网络)”以及第六段中“Try to get to know at least some of your teachers beyond your classroom communication. (试着在课堂交流之外至少了解一些你的老师)”可知，中间段落从制定时间表、建立支持网络、与老师积极沟通等方面给出了如何应对这一过渡期的具体建议。故A项“How to Get Through the Transition of Freshman Year of High School (如何度过高一过渡期)”能概括文章内容，最适合做文章标题。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 The most successful people all have certain habits in their daily routines. ___16___Forming a new good habit can be a struggle, but it is well worth the effort.

Before you can begin to work on your new habit, it is worthwhile to consider your goal.___17___Make sure that your goal is specific, measurable and realistic to increase your chances of success. ___18___ Having good habits that are in line with the goals can improve your chances of achieving your goals.

So take your time to consider your motivation. Give yourself time. Forming a new habit can take a long time. Some people can form a new habit in as little as a few weeks, while other people will take several months.

Good habits are sure to make you a success. D. These habits help contribute to their success. E. Figure out exactly what you hope to achieve. F. Try to be patient with yourself as you form your new habit. G. Your motivation is the reason you want to form this new habit. 【答案】16. D 17. E 18. B 19. G 20. F 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了养成良好的习惯的方法。 【16题详解】 根据上文The most successful people all have certain habits in their daily routines.（最成功的人在日常生活中都有一定的习惯。）中"certain habits"和"The most successful people"可对应到选项D中的"These habits"，故D项"这些习惯有助于促成他们的成功"符合语境。故选D。 【17题详解】 根据本段的主题句"Set your goal（设定目标）"，与上文Before you can begin to work on your new habit, it is worthwhile to consider your goal.（在你开始培养新习惯之前，有必要考虑一下你的目标。）中的"consider your goal"可知，此处讲的应是要弄清楚自己的目标是什么，故E项"弄清楚你究竟希望完成什么"符合语境。故选E。 【18题详解】 通读第三段可知，主要讲与目标一致的好习惯能提升你实现自己的目标的可能性。再结合该段中的"After you have set your goal and worked out all of the specifics (细节) of achieving that goal, find a habit that is part of achieving that goal.（在你设定了目标，并制定了实现目标的所有细节之后，养成一个习惯，这也是实现目标的一部分。）"可知，B项"找到你想养成的习惯"最能概括本段的主题。故选B。 【19题详解】 根据该段的主题句以及空前的"take some time to consider your motivation（花点时间考虑你的动机）"以及空后的" Good motivation can be the difference between success and failure in terms of forming a new habit.（在形成新习惯方面，良好的动机可能是成功和失败的区别。）"可知，本段的中心内容涉及"动机"，故G项"Your motivation is the reason you want to form this new habit（你的动机是你想要养成这个新习惯的原因）"符合语境。故选G。 【20题详解】 根据本段的主题句"Give yourself time（给自己一点时间）"以及上文As you work to form your new habit, just keep in mind that it may be a while before it comes true.（当你努力养成新习惯时，请记住，这可能需要一段时间才能实现。）可知，良好的习惯不是一朝一夕就能养成的，它需要时间，因此在养成良好习惯的过程中要对自己有耐心，故选F项。 【点睛】七选五解题技巧 七选五题型看似简单，实际上有时完全作对并不容易，需要方法和分析能力及足够的耐力。这种题一般可从以下方面来做： （1）看首段，跳过空格快速通读全篇，了解文章大意。首段的末句一般是全文的主题所在，首段的末句对于快速掌握文章的主题具有重要意义。 （2）首先快速浏览一遍七个备选答案，先确定哪个选项适合放在文章的什么位置。 （3）精读空格前后两句，利用各种衔接手段选择正确的选项填入空格。七选五空出的是整个句子，而这些句子与句子之间，必然有一种联系，因此我们可以通过选项中某个名词或动词跟空前或空后的一致性或者相关性来确定这两个句子之间有一种关联性，从而选择正确的答案。考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。 （4）看选项，找出与空前空后句中心词同义，近义或相关性的词语。实现关键词的对接，先易后难，各个突破。此外要通过句子的逻辑关系或句子的标点来判断该句在文章的位置。 （5） 解题的关键是能娴熟地利用各种衔接手段。尤其要注意代词，连词等。如表示转折关系的but，though, however 等。 做完后，通读全文。将所选项放入空白处，通读一遍，看看是否与上下文构成语义及逻辑上的直接关系，是否符合该处语境。能否承接前后的写作线索。 如第二小题，根据本段的主题句"Set your goal（设定目标）",与上文Before you can begin to work on your new habit, it is worthwhile to consider your goal.（在你开始培养新习惯之前，有必要考虑一下你的目标。）中的"consider your goal"可知，此处讲的应是要弄清楚自己的目标，故E项"弄清楚你究竟希望完成什么"符合语境。故选E。 第三部分：语言运用（共三节，满分45分） 第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A long time ago, there lived a girl named Lilly.When she started going to school, she was___21___.
