Amy helps Jake with schoolwork. Jake helps Amy get the book in the bookcase. That is what friends do.”可知，此处的“That”指代的是前文提到的“朋友互相帮助”。 【6题详解】 根据文章第四段“They must learn to understand each other, or the friendship won’t be long.

They can’t talk. They can’t walk. They can’t think like us. Are all of the above true? A recent TV show gives us a new look at plants. It tells us the secret lives of plants and the ways that plants behave. Plants fight against each other to live. Each has its own way. In the rainforests, different kinds of plants race for sunlight because only two percent of the sunlight reaches the ground. Some plants spread (伸展) their big leaves to get more light. But some vines (藤蔓) try to catch them to take a ride. Finally, the balsa wood (巴尔沙木) one of the fastest-growing trees, beat all of them. Plants also help each other and even communicate. In deserts, the roots of Euphrates poplars (胡杨), a kind of tall straight tree with soft wood, are connected. If a tree finds water, it will share it with others through the roots. It’s kind of like the way Wi-Fi works. Studies also show that plants use fungus (真菌) in the soil as a way to “talk” to each other. If a tomato plant gets a leaf disease, it can tell nearby plants about it through fungus. The TV show not only lets us feel amazed at the plant world but also pushes us to understand that plants are important. “Plants are the basis of all life, including ourselves. We depend on them for every morsel of food that we eat and every breath of air that we breathe,” said David, the presenter of the TV show. It’s time to look after wild plants just as carefully as our houseplants. 8. What does the recent TV show tell us? A. The history of forests. B. The fight between animals. C. The lives of plants and the ways they behave. 9. How do plants “talk” to each other according to the text? A. Through fungus in the soil. B. By sharing the sunlight. C. By spreading their leaves. 10. What can we know from David’s words? A. Houseplants also need our care. B. Many wild plants are in danger. C. Plants play a big role in our lives. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. The Amazing Trees B. The Amazing Lives of Plants C. The Number of Plants 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一档电视节目所揭示的植物的秘密生活，包括植物为生存相互竞争、彼此帮助与交流的方式，并引用主持人的话强调了植物对所有生命的重要性，呼吁人们保护野生植物。 【8题详解】 根据第二段“It tells us the secret lives of plants and the ways that plants behave.”可知，这档电视节目告诉我们植物秘密的生活以及它们的行为方式。 【9题详解】 根据第四段“Studies also show that plants use fungus in the soil as a way to ‘talk’ to each other.”可知，植物通过土壤中的真菌进行交流。 【10题详解】 根据第五段David的话“Plants are the basis of all life, including ourselves. We depend on them for every morsel of food that we eat and every breath that we breathe.”可知，植物是包括人类在内的所有生命的基础，我们依赖植物获取食物和空气，说明植物在我们的生活中扮演着重要角色。 【11题详解】 通读全文可知，文章介绍了植物会竞争、互助、交流等令人惊奇的生命现象。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后面的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项是多余项。 Lots of students are too busy to help out with housework.

Children need to learn the necessary life skills to be independent. 【答案】12. B 13. E 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文就家长是否该让孩子做家务展开议论，提出做家务有益于孩子成长的观点，并从培养独立性、树立自信、培养责任感与团队协作意识三个角度论证理由。 【12题详解】 空前“many parents want to know if they should let their children do chores”提出家长疑惑是否该让孩子做家务，下文开始列举做家务的好处，B项“Chores are good for children.”总起下文，衔接自然。 【13题详解】 空前“doing chores helps children learn to be independent”提到做家务帮孩子培养独立性，后文“these skills will help them be ready for the day when they go to college or take care of their own houses”提及这些技能助力孩子未来，E项“Children need to learn the necessary life skills to be independent.”承接“独立”的话题，引出后文的技能相关内容。 【14题详解】 文章按照First、Second、Third的逻辑顺序，且后文内容围绕孩子完成家务后获得自豪感、建立自信展开，A项“Second, doing chores helps children build self-confidence (自信).”契合段落主题与行文逻辑。 【15题详解】 空后“They will know that if they work together as a team, things will be finished more quickly and better.”提到团队协作能让事情完成得又快又好，C项“That helps them build team spirit.”呼应后文的团队合作内容。 Ⅲ.语言运用（共三节，满分35分） 第一节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It was Sunday today and my family were all ____16____.

A. sweep the floor; set the table B. set the table; wash clothes C. cook dinner; walk the dog 3. Mike can usually get ________ every week. A. $20 B. $15 C. $11 B Look around. Do you see your friends? Friends are people you like to be with. Your school playground is a good place to make friends. Ask someone new to play! If a child asks you to play, say “yes”. Friends make each other happy. Anna tells Alex a funny joke. Then Alex does a funny dance. That’s what friends do. Friends help each other. Amy helps Jake with schoolwork. Jake helps Amy get the book in the bookcase. That is what friends do. Sometimes a friend may feel sad. When Ben is sad, Lily makes him feel better. That’s what friends do. Sometimes friends may get angry with each other. When that happens, they can talk about how they feel. Later, they can say, “I’m sorry.” That’s what friends do. Sometimes friends also fight with each other. But it doesn’t matter. They must learn to understand each other, or the friendship won’t be long. Understanding is the most important in friendship. Everyone has the right to choose friends. Some may be our friends, and they may make friends with those we dislike. We shouldn’t be sad when our friends do that. 4. Which place is good for children to make friends? A. B. C. 5. What does the underlined word “That” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. Friends make each other laugh. B. Alex does a funny dance. C. Friends help each other. 6. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. Friends never get angry or fight with each other. B. Understanding is very important for a long-lasting friendship. C. We should be sad when our friends make friends with those we dislike. 7. What is the structure (结构) of the passage? A. B. C. C In many people’s eyes, plants are quiet. They can’t talk. They can’t walk. They can’t think like us. Are all of the above true? A recent TV show gives us a new look at plants. It tells us the secret lives of plants and the ways that plants behave. Plants fight against each other to live. Each has its own way. In the rainforests, different kinds of plants race for sunlight because only two percent of the sunlight reaches the ground. Some plants spread (伸展) their big leaves to get more light. But some vines (藤蔓) try to catch them to take a ride. Finally, the balsa wood (巴尔沙木) one of the fastest-growing trees, beat all of them. Plants also help each other and even communicate. In deserts, the roots of Euphrates poplars (胡杨), a kind of tall straight tree with soft wood, are connected. If a tree finds water, it will share it with others through the roots. It’s kind of like the way Wi-Fi works. Studies also show that plants use fungus (真菌) in the soil as a way to “talk” to each other. If a tomato plant gets a leaf disease, it can tell nearby plants about it through fungus. The TV show not only lets us feel amazed at the plant world but also pushes us to understand that plants are important. “Plants are the basis of all life, including ourselves. We depend on them for every morsel of food that we eat and every breath of air that we breathe,” said David, the presenter of the TV show. It’s time to look after wild plants just as carefully as our houseplants. 8. What does the recent TV show tell us? A. The history of forests. B. The fight between animals. C. The lives of plants and the ways they behave. 9. How do plants “talk” to each other according to the text? A. Through fungus in the soil. B. By sharing the sunlight. C. By spreading their leaves. 10. What can we know from David’s words? A. Houseplants also need our care. B. Many wild plants are in danger. C. Plants play a big role in our lives. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. The Amazing Trees B. The Amazing Lives of Plants C. The Number of Plants 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后面的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项是多余项。 Lots of students are too busy to help out with housework.
