【解析】
【导语】本文记叙了作者上周参加自然公园观鸟活动的经历,描述了观鸟过程、学习生态知识及制作卡片表达祝愿,感悟自然之美。
【1题详解】
句意:对我来说这是一次美妙的经历。
前文说“我参加了一个观鸟活动”,参加活动是一次经历,应选experience“经历”。其他选项artwork“艺术品”、promise“承诺”、weekday“工作日”都与此语境不符。
【2题详解】
句意:我们的导游是一个年轻人,他告诉了我们许多关于鸟的事情。
下文这个人在讲解鸟类知识,并且后文多次出现“guide”指代此人,此处应选guide“导游”。
【3题详解】
句意:我们了解到它们吃什么,住在哪里。
learn后面接宾语从句,从句“they ate”中缺少宾语,所以用what“什么”引导。其他选项无法充当ate的宾语。
【4题详解】
句意:突然,一个男孩兴奋地喊道:“看!一只绿头的鸭子!”
看到鸭子是意外发生的事,Suddenly“突然地”符合语境。其他选项Slowly“慢慢地”、Usually“通常”、Finally“最终”都无法体现兴奋突发状态。
【5题详解】
句意:那只鸭子游得离我们很近,所以我们可以看得很清楚。
距离近导致看得清,前因后果逻辑关系明确,选so“因此”。
【6题详解】
句意:在令人兴奋的乘船游览之后,我们去了森林区域。
从前文的“wonderful”看出游览体验是积极的,故用exciting“令人兴奋的”。dangerous“危险的”、terrible“糟糕的”感情色彩消极,modern“现代的”与此语境无关。
【7题详解】
句意:我们拿着望远镜开始自己观鸟。
根据上文的“use binoculars”可知,使用望远镜需手持,应用hold“拿着、握着”。其他选项动作won“赢得”、noticed“注意到”、made“制作”无法实现观鸟。
【8题详解】
句意:每次我们发现一种新的鸟,都会开心地互相分享。
根据“bird-watching event”可知,活动主题是观鸟,发现的当然是新种类的鸟“bird”。其他选项偏离观鸟主题。
【9题详解】
句意:我们感到累了,坐下来休息。
累了需要休息,have a break“休息一下”,符合语境。其他选项fight“打架”、show“展示”、look“看”不符合疲劳后的行为逻辑。
【10题详解】
句意:11点,我们参加了这次旅行的最后一项活动。
根据“activity”可知,参加活动用take part in。其他选项searched for“寻找”、turned around“转身”、took care of“照顾”与活动搭配不当。
【11题详解】
句意:我们把对鸟儿的美好祝愿写在卡片上,然后把它们挂在墙上。
把祝愿写在卡片上用wrote“写”。其他选项动作chose“选择”、sold“卖”、explored“探索”与语境不符
【12题详解】
句意:导游表扬了我们的团队合作精神。
根据“did a good job”可知,做得好会被表扬,应用praised“表扬”。其他选项asked“问”、looked“看”、taught“教”不符合语境。
【13题详解】
句意:这是一次奇妙的旅行,充满了乐趣和对大自然的热爱。
根据“full of fun”可知,充满乐趣的旅行对应积极意义的形容词fantastic“极好的、奇妙的”。其他选项boring“无聊的”、tiring“累人的”、busy“忙碌的”感情色彩消极。
【14题详解】
句意:我学到了一些重要的东西。
肯定句中表示“某件事”用something。根据语境,有所感悟用something表示特定内容。其他选项不符合肯定句意或过于绝对。
【15题详解】
句意:它提醒我们要热爱和保护自然。
根据“love and protect nature”可知,此经历唤起我们保护自然的意识,应选reminds“提醒”。其他选项逻辑与保护自然相悖。

【21题详解】
根据文章第4段“If you travel in Amsterdam, you don’t need to take a bus or taxi. You can ride a bicycle along the roads and the streets.”可知,游客在阿姆斯特丹旅行时可以租用自行车出行。
【22题详解】
根据文章第4段“They love the idea of exploring by bike but are nervous about riding in a new city.”可知,游客既想骑车探索城市,又对在陌生城市骑行感到不安,处于两难的选择境地,由此可推知“dilemma”与“choice”含义接近,指两难的选择。
【23题详解】
根据文章第2段“Even the police work on bicycles.”可知,阿姆斯特丹的警察也骑自行车工作,D选项表述与原文内容不符。
【24题详解】
文章第1段总起,点明阿姆斯特丹是“世界自行车之城”;第2至4段分别从骑行的普及程度、骑行配套设施、游客骑行相关事项三个角度展开介绍;第5段总结全文,点明在阿姆斯特丹骑行的乐趣与注意事项。全文为“总-分-总”结构,对应选项D的图示。

C
In the story “Snow White”, the queen decides to kill Snow White once and for all with an apple dipped (蘸) in deadly poison (毒药). Thanks to seven helpful dwarves and a handsome prince, Snow White gets well again.
But the queen doesn’t need to go to all that trouble. In fact, apples— along with many common fruits we eat— are already poisonous! But don’t be afraid. The flesh won’t harm you. It’s only the seeds that you need to avoid.
Apples belong to a plant family called Rosaceae. This group also includes peaches, plums, apricots, and cherries. The seeds or stones of all these fruits have a chemical called amygdalin (苦杏仁苷). Inside an animal’s stomach, amygdalin turns into a strong poison called cyanide (氰化物). And cyanide can make people and animals very sick, or even kill them. Still, don’t worry if you accidentally eat a few apple seeds. Each seed has only a very tiny amount of poison. You’d have to eat a large bowl of seeds to feel any effect.
Why would a tree make poisonous seeds? To stop animals from nibbling on them! Amygdalin tastes terrible. It’s also found in leaves and other parts of fruit trees. If a cow eats apple leaves, it gets a bad taste and an upset stomach (肠胃不适). Animals soon learn to leave those trees alone. Thanks, amygdalin!
Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the cleverest fruit of all?
You, my apple!
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
26. How does the writer lead into the topic?
A. By telling a story. B. By using a saying. C. By asking a question. D. By giving an example.
27. What can we know about amygdalin according to the text?
①A little of it can cause animals to die. ②It can turn into cyanide in animals’ stomach.
③It can be found in apple seeds and apple leaves. ④It tastes terrible and can cause an upset stomach.
A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①③④ D. ①②④
28. Which shows the correct grouping of Rosaceae according to the text?
A. B.
C. D.
29. What does the underlined word “nibbling” mean in Chinese?
A. 小憩 B. 打架 C. 攀爬 D. 啃食
30. In which unit of a textbook can the text be found?
A. Unit 1 Amazing Plants B. Unit 2 Feeding the World
C. Unit 3 Animals All Around D. Unit 4 Environmental Protection
【答案】26. A 27. B 28. C 29. D 30. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文,以白雪公主的故事引入话题,介绍了苹果等蔷薇科水果的种子含有苦杏仁苷,这种物质在动物胃中会转化为有毒的氰化物,同时说明了果树长出带毒种子是为了避免被动物啃食,展现了植物的奇妙特性。
【26题详解】
根据文章第1段“In the story “Snow White”, the queen decides to kill Snow White once and for all with an apple dipped in deadly poison.”可推知,作者开篇讲述白雪公主的故事,以此引出和苹果相关的主题,因此作者是通过讲故事的方式引入话题。
【27题详解】
根据文章第3段“Inside an animal’s stomach, amygdalin turns into a strong poison called cyanide.”可知苦杏仁苷在动物胃中会转化为氰化物;根据第3段“The seeds or stones of all these fruits have a chemical called amygdalin.”和第4段“It’s also found in leaves and other parts of fruit trees.”可知苦杏仁苷存在于苹果籽和苹果叶中;根据第4段“Amygdalin tastes terrible.”和“If a cow eats apple leaves, it gets a bad taste and an upset stomach.”可知苦杏仁苷味道很差,会引发肠胃不适。因此②③④的表述符合原文内容。
【28题详解】
根据文章第3段“Apples belong to a plant family called Rosaceae. This group also includes peaches, plums, apricots, and cherries.”可推知,苹果、桃子、樱桃都属于蔷薇科,对应选项C的分组是正确的蔷薇科分类。
【29题详解】
根据文章第4段“Why would a tree make poisonous seeds? To stop animals from nibbling on them! Amygdalin tastes terrible.”以及后文“If a cow eats apple leaves, it gets a bad taste and an upset stomach.”可推知,树长出有毒的种子是为了阻止动物啃食种子,因此nibbling的中文意思是“啃食”。
【30题详解】
根据全文围绕苹果等蔷薇科植物的种子含毒的奇妙特性展开介绍可推知,这篇文章属于植物相关的科普内容,最可能出现在“神奇的植物”单元中。

From the time each of my children started school, I packed their lunches. And in each lunch, I packed a home note. It was often a piece of small paper, and it might be a thank-you for an unusual moment, or some warm words about our sweet home.
In early grade school, they loved their notes. But as the children grow older they become self-conscious (有自我意识的), and by the time he reached high school, my older son, Marc, said he didn’t want my daily notes anymore. I told him that he no longer needed to read them but I still needed to write them, and I went on until the day he graduated (毕业).
Six years after high school graduation, Marc called and asked if he could move home for months. I was especially happy to have Marc back. Because I was still making
lunch for his younger brother, I packed one for Marc too. Imagine (想象) my surprise when I got a call from Marc, asking about his lunch. “Did I do something wrong?

In the story “Snow White”, the queen decides to kill Snow White once and for all with an apple dipped (蘸) in deadly poison (毒药). Thanks to seven helpful dwarves and a handsome prince, Snow White gets well again.
But the queen doesn’t need to go to all that trouble. In fact, apples— along with many common fruits we eat— are already poisonous! But don’t be afraid. The flesh won’t harm you. It’s only the seeds that you need to avoid.
Apples belong to a plant family called Rosaceae. This group also includes peaches, plums, apricots, and cherries. The seeds or stones of all these fruits have a chemical called amygdalin (苦杏仁苷). Inside an animal’s stomach, amygdalin turns into a strong poison called cyanide (氰化物). And cyanide can make people and animals very sick, or even kill them. Still, don’t worry if you accidentally eat a few apple seeds. Each seed has only a very tiny amount of poison. You’d have to eat a large bowl of seeds to feel any effect.
Why would a tree make poisonous seeds? To stop animals from nibbling on them! Amygdalin tastes terrible. It’s also found in leaves and other parts of fruit trees. If a cow eats apple leaves, it gets a bad taste and an upset stomach (肠胃不适). Animals soon learn to leave those trees alone. Thanks, amygdalin!
Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the cleverest fruit of all?
You, my apple!
