B Pierre Dupin had delivered (送货) milk to the families on Prince Edward Street for thirty years. All that knew him loved him. Every morning at five, Pierre arrived at the milk company’s stables, saying to Joseph, “Good morning! My old friend!” Then, the two started their day proudly. Without any order from Pierre, the wagon would roll down the street. The horse stopped at the first house. There, Joseph would wait perhaps thirty seconds for Pierre to get down off his seat and put a bottle of milk at the front door… One day, the president of the company came to check the early morning milk deliveries. Jacques, the foreman (领班) of the stables, pointed to Pierre and said, “See how the horse listens and how he turns his head toward Pierre?” “Yeah! But Pierre’s getting old.” said the president, “Tell him it is time he rested…” But Pierre said, “My life will be nothing if I can’t drive Joseph every day. We are two old men! Let us wear out together. When Joseph is ready to leave, then I too will do so.” Then one cold morning, after about two years, Jacques said, “Pierre, your horse, Joseph, didn’t wake up. Go over and see him.” Pierre took one step forward, then turned. “No…no… You…you don’t understand, Jacques.” Now, Jacques looked into Pierre’s eyes. He saw a dead, lifeless look in them. So he said, “Take the day off, Pierre!” Pierre stepped into the street. Then there came a warning shout and a screech (尖锐的刹车声)… Five minutes later, a doctor announced, “Pierre’s dead…” “I couldn’t help it.” the driver said, “Why, he walked as though he were blind?” The doctor bent down. “Blind? Of course! This man has been blind for five years.” he turned to Jacques, “Didn’t you know that?” “None of us knew.” Jacques said softly, “Only one…only one knew—a friend of his, named Joseph…” 28. Pierre refused to leave his job because ________. A. he thought he was not old enough B. Joseph couldn’t work without his help C. he was unwilling to be separated from Joseph D. people on the street couldn’t live without him 29. The underlined sentences tell us that ________. A. Jacques was surprised to find that Pierre couldn’t see anything B. Pierre was too scared to take a last glance at his friend C. Pierre was so sad because it was time for him to leave his job then D. the death of Joseph drove Pierre to lose confidence for life 30. We can infer from the passage that ________. A. no one had ever known Pierre was blind B. Joseph just served as Pierre’s guide after Pierre went blind C. blindness didn’t make any difference to Pierre’s life at all D. the president wasn’t quite satisfied with Pierre’s work C We often reach a point in our life when we should be ready for change that will help us unlock our self-improvement power. However, there’s always something staring at us right under our nose but we don’t see it. The only time we think of unlocking our self-improvement power is when everything gets worst. When do we realize that we need to change diets? When none of our shirts and jeans would fit us. When do we stop eating candies and chocolates? When all of our teeth have fallen off. When do we realize that we need to stop smoking? When our lungs have gone bad. We see the warning signs and signals when things get rough and difficult. The only time most of us ever learn about unlocking our self-improvement power is when the whole world is falling apart. We think and feel this way because it is not easy to change, but change becomes more painful when we ignore(忽视) it， Change will happen, like it or hate it. At one point or another. we are all going to finally unlock our self-improvement power not because the world says so. But because we realize it's for our own good. Happy people don’t just accept change; they embrace (拥抱)it. Unlocking our self-improvement power means unlocking ourselves out of the box of thought that is just the way we are. It is such a poor excuse for people who fear change. Jane always tells everyone that she doesn't have the courage to be around groups of people. She heard her family tell the same things about her to other people. Over the years, that is what Jane has believed. Every time a great crowd come, she steps back and locks herself up in a room. Jane not only believes in her story, but lives it! Self-improvement may not be everybody’s favorite word, but if we look at things in a different way, we might have greater chances of enjoying the whole process instead of counting the days until we are fully improved. Three sessions in a week at the gym would result in a healthier life. Reading books every day would build up knowledge. And only when we are enjoying the whole process of unlocking our self-improvement power will we realize that we’re beginning to take things light and become happy. 31. The writer mentions the three questions in Paragraph 2 to show that . A. we learn our lessons when we experience pain. B. we are responsible for the problems we meet. C. life fails us when we get into the wrong way. D. life is a long journey full of ups and downs. 32. What is the key to solving Jane’s problem? A. She needs to remember why she started. B. She has to know how to get on with people. C. She has to realize she is not what she is in her story. D. She needs to understand the importance of confidence. 33. The writer probably agrees that . A. the world tells us how to improve ourselves. B. people change when they find it easy to do that. C. welcoming change in life is a drive to become better. D. enjoying the process of self-improvement makes life simpler. 34. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Is it important to take things light? B. Is it necessary to embrace challenges? C. To hold on to the last moment or to give up? D. To free ourselves out of the box or to stay in it? 四、词汇运用 根据句意和，写出括号内所给单词的适当形式。 35.

According to historical records, Pei often flattered (奉承) Emperor Yangdi of the Sui Dynasty. He never disagreed with the emperor’s ideas even though he knew they might be wrong. Knowing that Emperor Yangdi was very warlike, Pei suggested fighting many wars. This, however, led to Sui’s downfall, because the wars cost too much. When the Tang Dynasty was set up, Pei started to work for the new government. He seemed to become a totally different person. Instead of flattering Emperor Taizong, Pei always spoke out against his wrongs and tried his best to help Taizong make the right decisions. Why did Pei change? According to Chinese historian Sima Guang, Pei was affected by who he worked for. Emperor Yangdi hated to be criticized (批评), while Emperor Taizong loved to hear honest and direct advice. What we can learn from the story, however, is that the conditions around may have a great influence on us. A good environment encourages you to do good acts, while a bad one may lead you to do bad things. That’s why people say “a fine bird rests only on a fine tree, and a virtuous minister only serves a virtuous master (良禽择木而栖，贤臣择主而事)”. On the other hand, the story also shows that only those who are willing to hear criticism can benefit (获益) from it. It’s good for the government officials to be open-minded and welcome honest and direct advice. This also applies to us. Do you want fake friends who only please you but don’t care about you, or true friends who can sincerely point out your mistakes? It’s up to you. 回答下面5个问题，每小题答案不超过6个词。 55. What was Pei Ju in ancient China? ________________________________ 56. How many emperors did Pei work for? ________________________________ 57. Why did Sui Dynasty fall down? ________________________________ 58. Who affected Pei Ju more according to the passage? ________________________________ 59. What does the story want to tell us? ________________________________ 七、书面表达 60. 每个人心中都有一个想感谢的人。近日，无锡教育电视台将举办题为“The person I’d like to thank”的英文演讲比赛，邀请全市中学生参赛。假设你是李华，请根据以下流程图完成演讲稿。 Dear teachers and classmates, I’m Li Hua.

Is that true”可知是指多久以后它将会被投入使用。故选C。 13. —Good news! Another new member in the Beidou family was sent into space. —Scientists tried their best to pay attention to every detail. To them, _______.

A. You are wrong. B. That’s not the case. C. Why not? D. Not at all. 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——据说一个人的星座决定了他的性格，这是真的吗？——根本不是。只是为了好玩。 考查情景交际。You are wrong.你错了；That’s not the case.事实并非如此；Why not?为什么不呢；Not at all.别客气。根据后句“Just for fun.”可知，这根本不是真的。故选B。 二、完型填空 先通读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后在每小题所给的四个选项中，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。 When I was a young boy, we lived just down the road from a public swimming pool.

All that knew him loved him. Every morning at five, Pierre arrived at the milk company’s stables, saying to Joseph, “Good morning! My old friend!” Then, the two started their day proudly. Without any order from Pierre, the wagon would roll down the street. The horse stopped at the first house. There, Joseph would wait perhaps thirty seconds for Pierre to get down off his seat and put a bottle of milk at the front door… One day, the president of the company came to check the early morning milk deliveries. Jacques, the foreman (领班) of the stables, pointed to Pierre and said, “See how the horse listens and how he turns his head toward Pierre?” “Yeah! But Pierre’s getting old.” said the president, “Tell him it is time he rested…” But Pierre said, “My life will be nothing if I can’t drive Joseph every day. We are two old men! Let us wear out together. When Joseph is ready to leave, then I too will do so.” Then one cold morning, after about two years, Jacques said, “Pierre, your horse, Joseph, didn’t wake up. Go over and see him.” Pierre took one step forward, then turned. “No…no… You…you don’t understand, Jacques.” Now, Jacques looked into Pierre’s eyes. He saw a dead, lifeless look in them. So he said, “Take the day off, Pierre!” Pierre stepped into the street. Then there came a warning shout and a screech (尖锐的刹车声)… Five minutes later, a doctor announced, “Pierre’s dead…” “I couldn’t help it.” the driver said, “Why, he walked as though he were blind?” The doctor bent down. “Blind? Of course! This man has been blind for five years.” he turned to Jacques, “Didn’t you know that?” “None of us knew.” Jacques said softly, “Only one…only one knew—a friend of his, named Joseph…” 28. Pierre refused to leave his job because ________. A. he thought he was not old enough B. Joseph couldn’t work without his help C. he was unwilling to be separated from Joseph D. people on the street couldn’t live without him 29. The underlined sentences tell us that ________. A.

Joseph just served as Pierre’s guide after Pierre went blind C. blindness didn’t make any difference to Pierre’s life at all D. the president wasn’t quite satisfied with Pierre’s work 【答案】28. C 29.

Let us wear out together”可知，Pierre拒绝离开工作是因为他要和他的马在一起，他离不开马，故选C。 【29题详解】 句意猜测题。根据前一句“Pierre took one step forward, then turned. “No…no… You…you don’t understand, Jacques.””可知，Pierre因为马的离去而感到绝望，故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Without any order from Pierre, the wagon would roll down the street. The horse stopped at the first house.”以及医生的描述可知，Pierre在五年前就已经失明了，失明之后，Pierre的马Joseph就来做他的向导。故选B。 C We often reach a point in our life when we should be ready for change that will help us unlock our self-improvement power. However, there’s always something staring at us right under our nose but we don’t see it. The only time we think of unlocking our self-improvement power is when everything gets worst. When do we realize that we need to change diets? When none of our shirts and jeans would fit us. When do we stop eating candies and chocolates? When all of our teeth have fallen off. When do we realize that we need to stop smoking? When our lungs have gone bad. We see the warning signs and signals when things get rough and difficult. The only time most of us ever learn about unlocking our self-improvement power is when the whole world is falling apart. We think and feel this way because it is not easy to change, but change becomes more painful when we ignore(忽视) it， Change will happen, like it or hate it. At one point or another. we are all going to finally unlock our self-improvement power not because the world says so. But because we realize it's for our own good. Happy people don’t just accept change; they embrace (拥抱)it. Unlocking our self-improvement power means unlocking ourselves out of the box of thought that is just the way we are. It is such a poor excuse for people who fear change. Jane always tells everyone that she doesn't have the courage to be around groups of people. She heard her family tell the same things about her to other people. Over the years, that is what Jane has believed. Every time a great crowd come, she steps back and locks herself up in a room. Jane not only believes in her story, but lives it! Self-improvement may not be everybody’s favorite word, but if we look at things in a different way, we might have greater chances of enjoying the whole process instead of counting the days until we are fully improved. Three sessions in a week at the gym would result in a healthier life. Reading books every day would build up knowledge. And only when we are enjoying the whole process of unlocking our self-improvement power will we realize that we’re beginning to take things light and become happy. 31. The writer mentions the three questions in Paragraph 2 to show that . A. we learn our lessons when we experience pain. B. we are responsible for the problems we meet. C. life fails us when we get into the wrong way. D. life is a long journey full of ups and downs. 32. What is the key to solving Jane’s problem? A. She needs to remember why she started. B. She has to know how to get on with people. C. She has to realize she is not what she is in her story. D. She needs to understand the importance of confidence. 33. The writer probably agrees that . A. the world tells us how to improve ourselves. B. people change when they find it easy to do that. C. welcoming change in life is a drive to become better. D. enjoying the process of self-improvement makes life simpler. 34. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Is it important to take things light? B. Is it necessary to embrace challenges? C. To hold on to the last moment or to give up? D. To free ourselves out of the box or to stay in it? 【答案】31. A 32. C 33. C 34. D 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇人生感悟类阅读，主要介绍在我们的生活中，当我们准备好要改变的时候，我们经常会达到一个点，这将帮助我们打开自我提升的力量。打开自我提高能力的唯一时刻是当一切变得最糟糕的时候。只有当我们享受解锁自我完善能力的整个过程，从固定思维中解脱出来时，我们才会意识到我们开始轻而易举地获得快乐。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句The only time we think of unlocking our self-improvement power is when everything gets worst我们认为打开自我提高能力的唯一时刻是当一切变得最糟糕的时候。可知，作者列举“什么时候我们意识到我们需要改变饮食？当我们的衬衫和牛仔裤都不适合我们的时候，我们什么时候停止吃糖果和巧克力？当我们所有的牙齿都脱落了。我们什么时候意识到我们需要戒烟？”这些的目的是当我们经历痛苦时，我们学到了教训。故选A。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段 Jane always tells everyone that she doesn't have the courage to be around groups of people. She heard her family tell the same things about her to other people. Over the years, that is what Jane has believed. Every time a great crowd come, she steps back and locks herself up in a room. Jane not only believes in her story, but lives it! 简总是告诉每个人她没有勇气和一群人在一起。她听到她的家人对其他人说关于她的同样的话。多年来，这就是简所相信的。每次一大群人来，她都后退一步，把自己锁在一个房间里。简不仅相信她的故事，而且生活在其中！可知，解决简问题的关键是她必须意识到她不是她故事中的那样的人。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段Happy people don't just accept change; they embrace（拥抱）it. 快乐的人不只是接受变化，他们拥抱变化。及最后一段And only when we are enjoying the whole process of unlocking our self-improvement power will we realize that we're beginning to take things light and become happy. 只有当我们享受开启自我提升能力的整个过程时，我们才会意识到我们开始随遇而安并变得快乐。可知，作者可能同意欢迎生活中的变化是一个变得更好的动力。故选C。 【34题详解】 标题猜测题。根据第五段Unlocking our self-improvement power means unlocking ourselves out of the box of thought that is just the way we are. It is such a poor excuse for people who fear change解开自我提高的力量意味着把自己从思想的框框中解脱出来，这正是我们的方式。对于害怕改变的人来说，这是一个很糟糕的借口。倒数第二段最后一句Every time a great crowd come, she steps back and locks herself up in a room. Jane not only believes in her story, but lives it! 每次一大群人来，她都会后退一步，把自己锁在一个房间里。简不仅相信她的故事，而且生活在其中！及最后一句And only when we are enjoying the whole process of unlocking our self-improvement power will we realize that we're beginning to take things light and become happy. 只有当我们享受开启自我提升能力的整个过程时，我们才会意识到我们开始把一切看淡并变得快乐。可知，标题可以是“把自己从思维的盒子里解放出来还是留在里面？”。故选D。 四、词汇运用 根据句意和，写出括号内所给单词的适当形式。 35.

According to historical records, Pei often flattered (奉承) Emperor Yangdi of the Sui Dynasty. He never disagreed with the emperor’s ideas even though he knew they might be wrong. Knowing that Emperor Yangdi was very warlike, Pei suggested fighting many wars. This, however, led to Sui’s downfall, because the wars cost too much. When the Tang Dynasty was set up, Pei started to work for the new government. He seemed to become a totally different person. Instead of flattering Emperor Taizong, Pei always spoke out against his wrongs and tried his best to help Taizong make the right decisions. Why did Pei change? According to Chinese historian Sima Guang, Pei was affected by who he worked for. Emperor Yangdi hated to be criticized (批评), while Emperor Taizong loved to hear honest and direct advice. What we can learn from the story, however, is that the conditions around may have a great influence on us. A good environment encourages you to do good acts, while a bad one may lead you to do bad things. That’s why people say “a fine bird rests only on a fine tree, and a virtuous minister only serves a virtuous master (良禽择木而栖，贤臣择主而事)”. On the other hand, the story also shows that only those who are willing to hear criticism can benefit (获益) from it. It’s good for the government officials to be open-minded and welcome honest and direct advice. This also applies to us. Do you want fake friends who only please you but don’t care about you, or true friends who can sincerely point out your mistakes? It’s up to you. 回答下面5个问题，每小题答案不超过6个词。 55. What was Pei Ju in ancient China? ________________________________ 56. How many emperors did Pei work for? ________________________________ 57. Why did Sui Dynasty fall down? ________________________________ 58. Who affected Pei Ju more according to the passage? ________________________________ 59. What does the story want to tell us? ________________________________ 【答案】55. (He was) A government official. 56. Two/2 (emperors). 57. Because the wars cost too much./Because there were too many wars. 58. Emperor Taizong. 59. We can benefit from hearing criticism./We should make true friends./The conditions around us are important/really matter. 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述的是隋唐时期的一位政府官员裴矩在两个时期有着截然不同的名声以及给我们的启示。 【55题详解】 根据“In ancient China, Pei Ju was a government official who served during both the Sui and Tang dynasties”可知，裴矩在古代是一位政府官员。故填(He was) A government official. 【56题详解】 根据“Pei Ju was a government official who served during both the Sui and Tang dynasties”可知，他为两位皇帝效力。故填Two/2 (emperors). 【57题详解】 根据“This, however, led to Sui’s downfall, because the wars cost too much.”可知，因为战争花费太大，从而导致了隋朝的灭亡。故填Because the wars cost too much./Because there were too many wars. 【58题详解】 根据“When the Tang Dynasty was set up, Pei started to work for the new government. He seemed to become a totally different person. Instead of flattering Emperor Taizong, Pei always spoke out against his wrongs and tried his best to help Taizong make the right decisions.”及“Why did Pei change? According to Chinese historian Sima Guang, Pei was affected by who he worked for.”可知，裴矩在为新政府工作时，他似乎变成了一个完全不同的人，对唐太宗的错误总是直言不讳，尽力帮助唐太宗做出正确的决定，而不是奉承，这是因为他受到他为之工作的人的影响，由此可知，唐太宗对他的影响更大。故填Emperor Taizong. 【59题详解】 根据“What we can learn from the story, however, is that the conditions around may have a great influence on us.”、“the story also shows that only those who are willing to hear criticism can benefit (获益) from it.”及“This also applies to us. Do you want fake friends who only please you but don’t care about you, or true friends who can sincerely point out your mistakes?”可知，故事告诉我们周围的环境可能对我们有很大的影响；我们可以从听到批评中受益以及我们应该交真正的朋友。故填We can benefit from hearing criticism./We should make true friends./The conditions around us are important/really matter. 七、书面表达 60. 每个人心中都有一个想感谢的人。近日，无锡教育电视台将举办题为“The person I’d like to thank”的英文演讲比赛，邀请全市中学生参赛。假设你是李华，请根据以下流程图完成演讲稿。 Dear teachers and classmates, I’m Li Hua.
