This time I went even deeper, but I wasn’t ____5____. It was beautiful. And then I saw something moving towards me. It was a ____6____! I had never seen such a big one in the wild. I was caught by ____7____. All I’d learned about sharks rushed into my head. I knew I should slowly back away, but my curiosity got the best of me. I swam ____8____ to it, and when it was about five feet away, I got to know it was simply a Caribbean reef shark. They aren’t dangerous, so I decided to ____9____ it quietly. Then it slowly swam away. Now, more than ever, I understand why I love the sea — it is full of unknown danger, yet ____10____. Every dive (潜水) brings a new adventure, and every wave whispers a secret. The ocean teaches me courage and wonder, and that’s why I’ll always return. 1. A. fall B. look C. walk D. jump 2. A. nodded B. shook C. lifted D. closed 3. A. fire B. wind C. light D. sound 4. A. something B. anything C. nothing D. everything 5. A. excited B. afraid C. tired D. bored 6.

A. peaceful B. powerful C. beautiful D. fearful 【答案】1. D 2. C 3. A 4. A 5. B 6. D 7. C 8. B 9. A 10. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者在海边游泳潜水时的一次难忘经历。作者在深海中偶遇一条鲨鱼，从最初的恐惧到后来的好奇观察，最终感悟到大海虽充满未知危险却依然美丽，表达了对海洋的热爱与敬畏。 【1题详解】 句意：我把东西扔在沙滩上，非常高兴地跳进了海里。 后文“I swam to a rock”表明作者是跳入海中开始游泳，应用jump，表示“跳”。fall“落下”、look“看”、walk“走”均不符合语境中主动入水的动作。 【2题详解】 句意：我抬起头面向初升的太阳。 前文提到作者爬上岩石，后文说面向太阳，表明是抬起头的动作，应用lifted，表示“抬起”。nodded“点头”、shook“摇头”、closed“闭上”均不符合逻辑。 【3题详解】 句意：我心中有一团火在为深蓝燃烧。 后文“burned for the deep blue”表明心中有一团火，应用fire，比喻内心的热情。wind“风”、light“光”、sound“声音”均无法与“燃烧”搭配表达情感。 【4题详解】 句意：在一群鱼和其他海洋动物中，我注意到了特别的东西。 肯定句中表示“某物”，且后文“It was a big shell”指代具体事物，应用something，表示“某物”。anything用于否定或疑问句，nothing表否定，everything表全部，均不符合语境。 【5题详解】 句意：这次我潜得更深了，但我并不害怕。 前文提到作者睁眼潜入更深的水域，后文“It was beautiful”表明作者享受其中而非恐惧，应用afraid，表示“害怕”。excited“兴奋的”、tired“累的”、bored“无聊的”均与转折连词but后的美好感受逻辑不符。 【6题详解】 句意：那是一条鲨鱼！ 后文“All I’d learned about sharks rushed into my head”明确提示了出现的动物种类，应用shark，表示“鲨鱼”。dolphin“海豚”、turtle“海龟”、whale“鲸鱼”均与下文线索矛盾。 【7题详解】 句意：我被恐惧抓住了。 前文提到从未在野外见过这么大的鲨鱼，且后文提到关于鲨鱼的知识涌入脑海，所以是感到害怕，应用fear，表示“恐惧”。anger“愤怒”、joy“喜悦”、sadness“悲伤”均不符合遇到潜在危险时的心理状态。 【8题详解】 句意：我游得离它更近了。 前文提到好奇心战胜了理智，后文“when it was about five feet away”表明距离缩短，应用closer，表示“更近地”。faster“更快地”、slower“更慢地”、deeper“更深地”均不能准确体现接近目标的方位变化。 【9题详解】 句意：它们不危险，所以我决定静静地观察它。 前文确认了鲨鱼无害，后文“Then it slowly swam away”表明作者保持了静止观察的状态，应用watch，表示“观察”。listen“听”、leave“离开”、touch“触摸”均不符合静静欣赏的语境。 【10题详解】 句意：现在我比以往任何时候都更明白为什么我爱大海——它充满了未知的危险，却又美丽。 全文主旨在于表达对海洋复杂情感的接纳，危险与美丽形成对比统一，呼应结尾“courage and wonder”，应用beautiful，表示“美丽的”。peaceful“平静的”与前文danger矛盾，powerful“强大的”未体现情感色彩，fearful“可怕的”与love the sea的情感基调相反。 二、阅读理解（26%） (A) Welcome to Green Land Zoo Opening & Closing Hours Weekdays: 9: 00 a.m.—6: 00 p.m. Weekends & Holidays: 8: 30 a.m.—7: 00 p.m. Special Activities Keeper Talks (at Education Area) Learn great facts about animals from experienced zookeepers! Each day, we introduce a different star, from lions to giant pandas! Animal Feeding (at Kid’s Farm) Get close to farm animals like goats, rabbits and ducks! Our staff (员工) will guide you on how to safely feed them. 1. Don’t feed animals with your own food. 2. Don’t use flash (闪光灯) when taking photos of the animals. 3. You can only touch animals with the help of zookeepers. 11. When can visitors get into the zoo on weekends? A. 8: 00 a.m. B. 8: 30 a.m. C. 7: 30 p.m. D. 8: 30 p.m. 12. Where is the Birds’ House? A.

A science magazine. 【答案】11. B 12. A 13. A 14. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了Green Land Zoo的开放时间、园区地图、特色活动以及参观注意事项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Weekends & Holidays: 8: 30 a.m.—7: 00 p.m.”可知，周末游客可以在早上8:30进入动物园。故选B。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据园区地图可知，Birds’ House紧邻 Elephant Area，位于动物园的西北方向，并非东侧、南侧，也不在猴子区和熊区之间。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Keeper Talks (at Education Area)”部分“Each day, we introduce a different star, from lions to giant pandas!”可知，游客可以了解包括大熊猫在内的动物知识，A选项正确。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。文章包含动物园的开放时间、地图、活动和注意事项，这类内容最可能出现在旅游指南中，而非小说、故事书或科学杂志。故选C。 (B) Do you have true friends? Do you want to know better between you and your friends? There are three different kinds of friends: “pest friends”, “guest friends” and “best friends”. The first kind of friends is almost an acquaintance (熟人). All you usually know about them is their names. You may meet this kind of friends at school, at work, or on the bus, but you don’t miss them when they’re not around. When this kind of friends does something bad, you don’t tell them. That is why they are called “pest friends”. The second kind of friends could also be called “social partners”. They are closer than acquaintances, but not as close as true friends. You know their names, a little of what they like or dislike, and a little of their family histories. You may have the same interest and often do something together in your free time, but you don’t talk about anything deep, such as your wishes or dreams, and they don’t open up to you how they really feel. The last kind of friends, the “best friend” is the one you know the deepest. You’re like family members, and know everything about each other. You have no problem staying at each other’s houses, and you share your deepest feelings and thoughts. They will help you when you’re wrong. Sometimes they may not be perfect, but at least they will always care about you, and never do anything on purpose (故意地) to hurt you. We all have our pest, guest and best friends. We should value all friendships and remember, all best friends start out as just acquaintances. 15. If you and John are neighbors and classmates, and do things together, but don’t share your feelings, you are “________”. A. pest friends B. guest friends C. best friends D. true friends 16. The fourth paragraph mainly tells us ________. A. how to make a best friend B. how to learn from your best friends C. what a best friend is D. when a best friend can help you 17. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage? ①=Paragraph 1 ②=Paragraph 2 ③=Paragraph 3 ④=Paragraph 4 ⑤=Paragraph 5 A. ①/②③④⑤ B. ①/②③④/⑤ C. ①/②/③④⑤ D. ①/②/③/④/⑤ 18. What can we learn from the passage? A. Pest friends are more important than guest friends. B. We miss our best friends when we’re not with them. C. A best friend hardly does anything bad to you. D. A “pest friend” will never become your best friend. 【答案】15. B 16. C 17. B 18. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了三种不同类型的朋友（pest friends, guest friends, best friends）及其特征，并倡导人们珍惜所有友谊。 【15题详解】 根据文章第3段“You may have the same interest and often do something together in your free time, but you don’t talk about anything deep”可知，题目中“一起做事但不分享感受”的描述符合“guest friends”的定义。 【16题详解】 根据文章第4段“The last kind of friends, the ‘best friend’ is the one you know the deepest.”可知，本段详细描述了最好的朋友的特征。 【17题详解】 根据文章第1段“There are three different kinds of friends”及全文内容可知，第一段引出主题，第二至四段分述三种朋友，第五段总结，本文是“总——分——总”结构。 【18题详解】 根据第4段“Sometimes they may not be perfect, but at least they will always care about you, and never do anything on purpose (故意地) to hurt you.” 可知挚友几乎不会做伤害你的坏事。 (C) Our village carpenter (木匠), John, came one day and made a dining table for my wife. He made it just the right size for the space (空间) between the two windows. When I got home that evening, John was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill (账单) for the job. My wife said to me quietly, “That’s his ninth cup of tea today.” But she said, in a loud (响亮的) voice, “It’s a beautiful table, dear, isn’t it?” “I’ll decide about that when I see the bill.” I said. John laughed and gave me his bill for the work. I read: One dining table 10, November, 2014 Cost of wood $17.00 Paint $1.50 Work, 8 hours ( $1 an hour ) $8.00 Total $36.50 When I was looking at the bill, John said, “It’s a nice day, isn’t it? Quite sunny.” “Yes.” I said.“ I’m glad it’s only the tenth of November.” “Me, too.” said John. “You wait ——it’ll be a lot colder by the end of the month.” “Yes, colder——and more expensive! A dining table will be $20 more expensive on November 30, won’t it, John?” John looked hard at me for half a minute. Was there a little smile in his two blue eyes? I gave his bill back to him. “If there isn’t too much trouble, John,” I said, “please add it up again. You can forget the date.” I paid him $26.50 and he was happy to get it. 19. What was the weather like that day? It was _______. A. a hot day B. a fine day C. a rainy day D. a windy day 20. The writer thought John would ask for _______ if he made a dining table on the last day of November. A. $20.00 B. $46.50 C. $56.50 D. $26.50 21. When the writer gave John the money, John was happy because _______. A. he got what he should get for his work B. he got much more money for his work C. he got the money easily D. he didn’t have to add up the cost again 22. From the story we know that _______. A. John made a mistake in the bill B. John helped the writer check the bill C. John wrote the bill correctly D. John still wanted to get $36.5 for his work in the end 23. What do you think of the writer? He is ________. A. careless B. careful C. foolish D. afraid 【答案】19. B 20. C 21. A 22. A 23. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了木匠John给我家做完餐桌后写账单，结果账单中出现了错误，他把日期中的数字加到了总金额里，多算了10美元。我发现后便告诉了他，并支付了正确的金额。 【19题详解】 根据第五段“It’s a nice day, isn’t it? Quite sunny”可知，天气晴朗，选项B符合。 【20题详解】 根据第八段“A dining table will be $20 more expensive on November 30, won’t it, John?”和账单“Total $36.50”可知，到11月底会贵20美元，因此是$56.50，选项C符合。 【21题详解】 根据最后一段“I paid him $26.50 and he was happy to get it.”可知，他得到了自己干活应得的报酬。 【22题详解】 根据第十段“please add it up again. You can forget the date.”可知，John把日期数字“10”也加进总价，账单算错了。 【23题详解】 根据第十段“please add it up again. You can forget the date.”可知，作者发现账单猫腻，很细心。 三、信息还原（10%） 请先阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后根据短文内容从下面方框内的七个选项中选择五个还原到文中，使短文意思通顺，结构完整，并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑，一空一句。 Stephen Hawking said, “Once we step into space, our future should be safe.” Now many countries like the USA, Russia and China are building space stations and sending astronauts there today. ____24____ Robert, a rocket scientist, thinks it is a right thing for the countries to do so.

There are three different kinds of friends: “pest friends”, “guest friends” and “best friends”. The first kind of friends is almost an acquaintance (熟人). All you usually know about them is their names. You may meet this kind of friends at school, at work, or on the bus, but you don’t miss them when they’re not around. When this kind of friends does something bad, you don’t tell them. That is why they are called “pest friends”. The second kind of friends could also be called “social partners”. They are closer than acquaintances, but not as close as true friends. You know their names, a little of what they like or dislike, and a little of their family histories. You may have the same interest and often do something together in your free time, but you don’t talk about anything deep, such as your wishes or dreams, and they don’t open up to you how they really feel. The last kind of friends, the “best friend” is the one you know the deepest. You’re like family members, and know everything about each other. You have no problem staying at each other’s houses, and you share your deepest feelings and thoughts. They will help you when you’re wrong. Sometimes they may not be perfect, but at least they will always care about you, and never do anything on purpose (故意地) to hurt you. We all have our pest, guest and best friends. We should value all friendships and remember, all best friends start out as just acquaintances. 15. If you and John are neighbors and classmates, and do things together, but don’t share your feelings, you are “________”. A. pest friends B. guest friends C. best friends D. true friends 16. The fourth paragraph mainly tells us ________. A. how to make a best friend B. how to learn from your best friends C. what a best friend is D. when a best friend can help you 17. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage? ①=Paragraph 1 ②=Paragraph 2 ③=Paragraph 3 ④=Paragraph 4 ⑤=Paragraph 5 A. ①/②③④⑤ B. ①/②③④/⑤ C. ①/②/③④⑤ D. ①/②/③/④/⑤ 18. What can we learn from the passage? A. Pest friends are more important than guest friends. B. We miss our best friends when we’re not with them. C. A best friend hardly does anything bad to you. D. A “pest friend” will never become your best friend. (C) Our village carpenter (木匠), John, came one day and made a dining table for my wife. He made it just the right size for the space (空间) between the two windows. When I got home that evening, John was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill (账单) for the job. My wife said to me quietly, “That’s his ninth cup of tea today.” But she said, in a loud (响亮的) voice, “It’s a beautiful table, dear, isn’t it?” “I’ll decide about that when I see the bill.” I said. John laughed and gave me his bill for the work. I read: One dining table 10, November, 2014 Cost of wood $17.00 Paint $1.50 Work, 8 hours ( $1 an hour ) $8.00 Total $36.50 When I was looking at the bill, John said, “It’s a nice day, isn’t it? Quite sunny.” “Yes.” I said.“ I’m glad it’s only the tenth of November.” “Me, too.” said John. “You wait ——it’ll be a lot colder by the end of the month.” “Yes, colder——and more expensive! A dining table will be $20 more expensive on November 30, won’t it, John?” John looked hard at me for half a minute. Was there a little smile in his two blue eyes? I gave his bill back to him. “If there isn’t too much trouble, John,” I said, “please add it up again. You can forget the date.” I paid him $26.50 and he was happy to get it. 19.
