阅读下面短文,按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求,从1~15各题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。
(A)
A long time ago, there was a king in India. The king’s favourite game was chess.
One day, a wise old man came to the palace and the king challenged him to a game. “You can have ____1____ prize if you win the game,” the king promised the old man.
The old man thought for a moment and said ____2____, “If I win the game, I’d like one grain of rice for ____3____ square of the chessboard, two for the second, four for the third ... I’d like you to double ____4____ for each of the rest of the squares.”
The king was very surprised. “Is that all?” he asked. “Wouldn’t you like gold or silver ____5____?”
1. A. some B. any C. many D. few
2. A. slow B. slower C. slowly D. more slowly
3. A. the first B. first C. one D. the one
4. A. the amount B. amount C. number D. the number
5. A. rather than B. in place of C. instead D. instead of
【答案】1. B 2. C 3. A 4. A 5. C
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了印度一位喜爱国际象棋的国王向一位智者发起棋局挑战,承诺智者获胜可得到任何奖品,智者却提出要在棋盘的第一格放1粒米、后续每一格的米粒数都翻倍的特殊奖赏要求,这让国王十分诧异并询问智者为何不选择金银这类财物的故事。
【1题详解】
句意:“如果你赢了游戏,就能得到任何奖品,”国王向老人承诺道。
本句含义是国王承诺老人如果赢了比赛,可以得到任何(想要的)奖赏,any用在肯定句中可以表示“任一、任何的”,贴合语境。some一些;many/few都只能修饰可数名词复数,而这里prize是单数,语义和语法都不符合。
【2题详解】
句意:老人沉思片刻,慢声说道:“如果我赢了这个比赛,我想得到棋盘上第一个格子一粒米,第二个格子两粒,第三个格子四粒……对于其余的每个格子,我都希望你将数量翻倍。”
空处需要修饰动词said,要用副词,且没有和其他对象比较的含义,不需要用比较级,副词原级slowly“缓慢地”符合语法要求。slow慢的,形容词;slower更慢的,形容词比较级;more slowly更缓慢地,副词比较级,均不符合语法。
【3题详解】
句意:老人沉思片刻,慢声说道:“如果我赢了这个比赛,我想得到棋盘上第一个格子一粒米,第二个格子两粒,第三个格子四粒……对于其余的每个格子,我都希望你将数量翻倍。”
后文出现了the second、the third,对应这里要表达“第一个格子”,表示顺序应用序数词first“第一”,且前面要加定冠词the,也就是the first。one一个;the one特指的一个,均不能表示顺序。
【4题详解】
句意:老人沉思片刻,慢声说道:“如果我赢了这个比赛,我想得到棋盘上第一个格子一粒米,第二个格子两粒,第三个格子四粒……对于其余的每个格子,我都希望你将数量翻倍。”
这里指代前面提到的每格的米粒的总量,rice是不可数名词,要用amount表示“总量”,同时特指前文提到的这份米的数量,要加定冠词the,也就是the amount。number数量,用于修饰可数名词。
【5题详解】
句意:你难道不想要金子或银子来代替吗?
此处指用金银代替大米,空处在句末,表达“代替”的含义,用副词instead。rather than而不是,in place of取代,instead of代替,后面都需要接名词/代词等宾语,不能直接放在句末。
(B)
Pyramids (金字塔) are one of the most interesting buildings in the world. Many of the pyramids still survive along the Nile River in Egypt today for us ____6____ and study. Nowadays, people look at them and ask, “Who built ____7____? Why? When? What is inside?”

6. A. to see B. seeing C. saw D. sees
7. A. they B. them C. their D. theirs
8. A. Two thousands B. Two thousands of C. Thousands of D. Thousand of
9. A. built B. building C. build D. are building

11. A. a B. an C. the D. /
12. A. came B. come C. comes D. are coming
13. A. so B. if C. but D. because
14. A. are working B. works C. worked D. working
15. A. somebody B. anybody C. everybody D. nobody
【答案】6. A 7. B 8. C 9. A 10. C 11. A 12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍金字塔,讲述金字塔建造时间、规模,同时提出古人如何建造金字塔至今仍是未解之谜。
【6题详解】
句意:如今,许多金字塔仍然矗立在埃及的尼罗河畔,供我们观赏和研究。
固定搭配for sb. to do sth.“供某人做某事”,此处用不定式to see。seeing动名词、saw过去式、sees一般现在时,结构均不符合。
【7题详解】
句意:在现代,人们看着它们问道:“是谁建造了它们?为什么建?何时建?里面有什么?”
空处在动词built后面,作宾语,用人称代词宾格them指代pyramids。they主格;their形容词性物主代词;theirs名词性物主代词,均不能作宾语。
【8题详解】
句意:数千年前,埃及的一些国王修建了金字塔。
thousands of数千的,固定短语。thousand前有具体数字不加s,不加of,Two thousands、Two thousands of、Thousand of表达均错误。
【9题详解】
句意:他们把金字塔修建为坟墓。
根据上下文years ago可知时态为一般过去时,build的过去式是built,符合语境。building现在分词;build动词原形;are building现在进行时,时态不符。
【10题详解】
句意:它大约144米高,由230万块石头建成。
be made of“由……制成 (能看出原材料),石头造金字塔,可以看出原料。be made from看不出原材料;by被;with用,均不符合。
【11题详解】
句意:它们中大多数比一个人还要高。
person是以辅音音素开头的单数名词,用a。an用于元音音素开头单词前;the表特指,此处表泛指一个人。
【12题详解】
句意:每年,来自世界各地的游客前来参观它。
Every year是一般现在时标志,主语travellers是复数,谓语动词用原形come。came过去式;comes三单;are coming现在进行时,时态主谓不一致。
【13题详解】
句意:每块石头彼此契合得如此完美,但是那时人们根本没有现代机器!
前后句存在转折关系,用but。so“所以”;if“如果”;because“因为”,逻辑不符。
【14题详解】
句意:现在科学家们正努力研究金字塔。
Now是现在进行时标志,结构be+doing;主语scientists是复数,be动词用are,are working符合语境。works三单;worked过去式;working缺少be动词。
【15题详解】
句意:然而,没有人能说出古人是如何建造它们的。
nobody“没有人”,符合“金字塔建造方式仍是谜团”的语境。somebody“某人”;anybody“任何人”;everybody“每个人”,语义不通。

The sun was shining. It was a hot day. The team was working hard to look for dinosaur fossils. They had been working many hours every day for a week. “This has been a great dig. We have found so many bones!” Cam said.
“I am excited that we have found so many, Cam, but we still haven’t found a dinosaur fossil,” Lisa said. This was Lisa’s first dig. She really wanted to find a dinosaur fossil in the mountains to prove (证明) that dinosaurs had lived there a long time ago. She had studied the area and believed that they had.
Day after day, the team carefully dug in the mountains. They dug deeper and deeper, but they still did not find any dinosaur fossils. Lisa was starting to feel like they would never find any. “Maybe we should just give up!” Lisa said one day. “We have been doing this for so long and have not found any of them. Maybe I was wrong,” she looked around sadly.
“Lisa, we have just started! This is a big place. We will have to keep on,” Cam said. It was not his first dig. He knew that the job was not easy and it took time. He believed that Lisa was right and that there would be a dinosaur fossil in the mountains. “Do not give up, Lisa. You know, miracles happen every day. Let’s keep digging!” he said.
The next day, Lisa saw some special bones when she was digging. She got a brush out and started to sweep the dirt. “Cam, come here quickly! It is a dinosaur fossil!” she said.

(B)
What do you do when you need to look something up? Go to the library? Open an encyclopaedia? Search on the internet? These days, most people go straight to Wikipedia (维基百科), the online encyclopaedia. But how helpful is it?
There’s no doubt that Wikipedia is helpful. Millions of visitors use it every month, and the site can be used in more than 270 different languages. It has much more information than an ordinary encyclopaedia. The information on the site can be changed by thousands of people around the world. Anyone with the internet can use it to share something they love. And they don’t need any formal training.
Of course, there are some controls. Wikipedia has a team of more than 1,500 volunteers. They check for wrong information. But with more than millions of articles to keep an eye on, it isn’t an easy job. So, Wikipedia is also open to pranksters (恶作剧者).
Some of the damage is easy to notice. One prankster drew something bad on Microsoft chairman Bill Gates’ photo, while another prankster said, “Plato was a Hawaiian weather man.” Other things are hard to discover. For example, there might be wrong information in a famous person’s biography. Some of this wrong information once appeared in the newspaper The Daily Mail. None of these are good. So, if you’re going to use Wikipedia, don’t do these things.
31. How does the writer develop Paragraph 1?
A. By listing numbers. B. By giving examples.
C. By comparing facts. D. By asking questions.
32. What can we know about Wikipedia?
A. It is only in English. B. It has little information.
C. We can use it on the internet. D. We need to go to a library to use it.
33. Why does the writer talk about the pranksters?
A. To let people get some training.
B. To ask people not to be pranksters.
C. To tell people how to use Wikipedia freely.
D. To teach people to write information on Wikipedia.
34. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Technology. B. History. C. Environment. D. Sports.
35. Which could be the best title for the passage?
A. The Internet and Wikipedia
B. Why Is Wikipedia So Expensive?
C. A Great Encyclopaedia—Wikipedia
D. How to Look Something Up in Wikipedia?
【答案】31. D 32. C 33. B 34. A 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了维基百科的优势:信息量大、支持多语言,任何人联网都可以编辑。同时它也存在弊端,恶作剧者会上传错误信息,所以使用维基百科时需要留意信息真伪。
【31题详解】
根据第一段“What do you do when you need to look something up? Go to the library? Open an encyclopaedia? Search on the internet?”可知,文章以设问展开。
【32题详解】
根据第一段“most people go straight to Wikipedia, the online encyclopaedia.”可知,维基百科可在网上使用,排除选项D,同时选项C符合题意。根据第二段“the site can be used in more than 270 different languages.”可知,维基百科有超过270种语言。
【33题详解】
在文章第四段作者举例恶作剧者编造虚假信息、篡改内容,告诉读者维基百科存在虚假信息风险,以及根据后文“So, if you’re going to use Wikipedia, don’t do these things.”可知,作者是警示人们不要做这类恶作剧行为。
【34题详解】
本文介绍网络线上百科网站维基百科,属于互联网科技类说明文。
【35题详解】
全文围绕互联网线上百科维基百科,既讲优点,又讲它的问题。选项C“A Great Encyclopaedia—Wikipedia”最能体现文章的主旨。

Task 2 回答问题(共3小题;每小题2分,满分6分)
学校读书会正在讨论“纸质百科全书是否还有存在必要”。请阅读下面文章,提取关键信息 (回答不多于五个词),用于讨论总结。
Are Paper Encyclopaedias Dead?
Twenty years ago, a set of World Book Encyclopaedia was a great treasure in many homes. Families spent a lot of money buying these heavy books. Children would pull out Volume “A” to read about “Africa” or “Airplanes”.
Today, the situation is very different. Sales of printed encyclopaedias have dropped by 80% since 2000. Why? Because information on the Internet is very quick and often free. If a new president is chosen or a new planet is found, a paper book cannot change, but a website can update in minutes. Also, online encyclopaedias have pictures, videos, and sound. You can watch a rocket take off or listen to a baby panda cry.
However, some people still like paper books. They say that staring at a screen for hours can hurt your eyes. Also, paper books do not need batteries or the Internet. For some readers, holding a book is a comfortable experience. You can turn the pages slowly and think. There are no pop-up ads or messages to take your attention away.
Maybe paper encyclopaedias are not dead. They are just becoming less common. Today, most people use online encyclopaedias for quick answers. But paper ones are still loved by collectors, libraries, and those who enjoy the feeling of reading a real book.
40. Why do more and more people use online information?
________________________________________
41. What don’t paper books need compared to online encyclopaedias?
________________________________________
42. What distracts (使分心) people when they read online?
________________________________________
【答案】40. It’s quick and free.
41. Batteries or the Internet.
42. Pop-up ads and messages.
【解析】
【导语】本文对比了纸质百科全书与网络百科。网络百科更新快、免费且多媒体丰富,但纸质百科不伤眼、无需网络电池、无弹窗广告,依然拥有爱好者。
【40题详解】
根据第二段“Because information on the Internet is very quick and often free.”可知,越来越多的人使用网上信息的原因是网上信息快捷和免费。
【41题详解】
根据第三段“Also, paper books do not need batteries or the Internet.”可知,和在线百科相比,纸质书不需要电池和网络。
【42题详解】
根据第三段“There are no pop-up ads or messages to take your attention away.”可知,线上阅读会被弹窗广告和消息打扰,这就是分心的来源。
第三节 阅读填空(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)
阅读短文及文后选项,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Numbers in different countries may have different meanings. ____43____ Take “8” for example, the Chinese pronunciation (发音) of the number “8” has almost the same sound as that of the Chinese character “发[fa:]”, which means making plenty of money. ____44____ They believe that the number will bring them more money.
____45____ They think such an idea is only an ignorant (愚昧的) and superstitious (迷信的) belief. A number is one thing, and good luck is another. They will ask, “How can you ever have any good luck simply because of some lucky numbers, even if you don’t work hard, don’t have good chances and don’t get along well with the people around you?”
As for me, I agree with the second idea. ____46____ Perhaps it holds true for some cases, but often it does not. Numbers can never bring good luck to a person at all and our luck is in our own hands. ____47____ Let’s always remember “Chances are only for the prepared mind” and “No pains, no gains”.
A. So, everyone can have good luck only if he tries his best.
B. Clearly, lucky numbers are only a kind of superstitious belief.
C. In China, some people think that some numbers bring them good luck.
D. However, others don’t believe that numbers have anything to do with good luck.
E. So, many Chinese people spend a lot of money to get their telephone numbers or car numbers to include this number “8”.
【答案】43. C 44. E 45. D 46. B 47. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文,介绍不同国家数字有着不同含义,围绕数字能否带来好运这一话题,展示两种不同观点,并表达作者自己的看法:好运靠自身努力,不是数字带来。
【43题详解】
空前提到不同国家数字有不同含义,空后以数字8举例说明中国的相关情况,C项“在中国,一些人认为有些数字能带来好运”可引出下文,符合语境。
【44题详解】
空前解释了数字8和汉字“发”发音相近、寓意发财,E项“所以很多中国人花很多钱让自己的手机号、车牌号包含数字8”是该寓意带来的行为,衔接自然。
【45题详解】
空后内容是人们不认可数字和好运相关,认为这是愚昧迷信的想法,和前文相信幸运数字的观点形成转折,D项“然而另一些人不相信数字和好运有任何关系”可引出下文的反对观点。
【46题详解】
空前提到作者认同第二种不迷信幸运数字的观点,B项“显然,幸运数字只是一种迷信的想法”承接作者的立场,对应后文数字根本不会带来好运的论述。
【47题详解】
空前提到运气掌握在自己手中,空后给出“机会只留给有准备的人、不劳无获”的名言,A项“所以每个人只有尽全力才能拥有好运”总结前文,呼应后文的努力付出的主旨。

第三节 完成句子(共6小题;每小题2分,满分12分)
根据所给的汉语内容,用英语完成下列句子。(每空限填一词)
59. 他的咳嗽与寒冷天气有关。
His cough ________ ________ ________ the cold weather.
【答案】 ①. is ②. related ③. to
【解析】
【详解】根据句意及空处可知,缺少“与……有关”的表达。be related to“与……有关”,句子描述的是客观存在的联系,用一般现在时;主语“His cough”是单数,be动词用“is”。故填is;related;to。
60. 我的新手机在设计上与旧手机相似,但它有更好的相机。
My new phone ________ ________ _________ my old one in design, but it has a better camera.
【答案】 ①. is ②. similar ③. to
【解析】
【详解】原句中“与……相似”是关键词,对应英文为短语be similar to,根据后半句“but it has a better camera”可知,时态为一般现在时,主语My new phone是单数,be动词用is。
61. 他们向我们挑战(踢)一场足球比赛。
They ________ ________ ________ a football match.
【答案】 ①. challenged ②. us ③. to
【解析】
【详解】对照中英文可知,缺少“向我们挑战……”。此句用一般过去时最合适,表示过去发生的事情。谓语动词用过去式。“向某人挑战某事”用动词短语challenge sb to sth,challenge的过去式为challenged;“我们”用宾格的us,作宾语。故填challenged;us;to。
62. 我哥哥承诺明天帮我做数学作业。
My brother ________ ________ ________ me with math homework tomorrow.
【答案】 ①. promised ②. to ③. help
【解析】
【详解】promise to do“承诺做某事”,因为“承诺了要做某事”,此处应用一般过去时,动词promise用过去式;help sb. with sth.“帮助某人做某事”。故填promised;to;help。
63. 学习第二语言在开阔视野方面起着重要作用。
Learning a second language ________ ________ ________ ________ in broadening your horizons.
【答案】 ①. plays ②. an/a ③. important/key ④. part/role
【解析】
【详解】句意:学习第二语言在开阔视野方面起着重要作用。“play an important role in”意为“在……方面起重要作用”,本句主语Learning a second language是动名词短语,作主语时谓语动词用单数。play a key part/play an important part也为正确搭配,故填plays;an;important;role。
64. 如果你想保持健康,应该多吃蔬菜而不是垃圾食品。
You should eat more vegetables ________ ________ junk food if you want to stay healthy.
【答案】 ①. instead ②. of
【解析】
【详解】原句中“而不是”是关键词,instead of表示“而不是”,后面可以接名词短语junk food。因此填instead;of。
第四节 看图造句(共4小题;每小题2分,满分8分)
根据图片,用所给的关键词造句,请使用动词的正确形式。

66. Rabbits are a type of animals.
67. The number of students went up last year./Last year the number of students went up.
68. Dinosaurs died out a long time ago./A long time ago dinosaurs died out.
【解析】
【65题详解】
结合单词和图片提示可知此处表达“请把名字写在纸上。”。本句为祈使句,please放在句首,也可以放在句子末尾,前面用逗号与主句隔开;write down(写下),是动副词短语,宾语“your name(你的名字)”可以放在两个词中间,也可以放在两个词之后;on the paper意为“在纸上”,在句子作状语。故填Please write your name down on the paper./Please write down your name on the paper./Write down your name on the paper, please./Write your name down on the paper, please.
【66题详解】
结合单词和图片提示可知此处表达“兔子是一种动物。”。rabbits(兔子)作主语,be动词使用are;a type of(一类,一种)是固定搭配;animal(动物)是可数名词,在介词of后作宾语,使用名词复数形式animals。故填Rabbits are a type of animals.
【67题详解】
结合单词和图片提示可知此处表达“去年学生人数有所增加。”。the number of students(学生的数量)做主语,go up(上升)作谓语;last year(去年)作状语,可以放在句首,也可以放在句末;last year是一般过去时标志,go变为went。故填The number of students went up last year./Last year the number of students went up.
【68题详解】
结合单词和图片提示可知此处表达“恐龙很久以前就灭绝了。”。dinosaurs(恐龙)是名词作主语;die out(灭绝)是动词短语作谓语;a long time ago(很久以前)是时间状语,是一般过去时标志,die变为died。,可以放在句首,也可以放在句末。故填Dinosaurs died out a long time ago./A long time ago dinosaurs died out.

The Story Behind “Luan Qi Ba Zao” (乱七八糟)—A Chinese Idiom for Chaos
In Chinese culture, the idiom “Luan Qi Ba Zao” is used to describe a situation that is completely messy or chaotic. Its meaning comes from two important historical ____16____ in ancient China.
During the Western Han Dynasty (202 BC–9 AD), Emperor Jingdi wanted to make the princes less powerful. This made seven princes very ____17____. In 154 BC, they joined together to ____18____ the emperor. Their rebellion caused years of war, destroyed many cities, and left people’s lives in chaos. Although the emperor ____19____ won, the damage was huge. People later called this event “Luan Qi” (Chaotic Seven).

三、阅读(共三节,满分39分)
第一节 阅读理解(共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。
(A)
The sun was shining. It was a hot day. The team was working hard to look for dinosaur fossils. They had been working many hours every day for a week. “This has been a great dig. We have found so many bones!” Cam said.
“I am excited that we have found so many, Cam, but we still haven’t found a dinosaur fossil,” Lisa said. This was Lisa’s first dig. She really wanted to find a dinosaur fossil in the mountains to prove (证明) that dinosaurs had lived there a long time ago. She had studied the area and believed that they had.
Day after day, the team carefully dug in the mountains. They dug deeper and deeper, but they still did not find any dinosaur fossils. Lisa was starting to feel like they would never find any. “Maybe we should just give up!” Lisa said one day. “We have been doing this for so long and have not found any of them. Maybe I was wrong,” she looked around sadly.
“Lisa, we have just started! This is a big place. We will have to keep on,” Cam said. It was not his first dig. He knew that the job was not easy and it took time. He believed that Lisa was right and that there would be a dinosaur fossil in the mountains. “Do not give up, Lisa. You know, miracles happen every day. Let’s keep digging!” he said.
The next day, Lisa saw some special bones when she was digging. She got a brush out and started to sweep the dirt. “Cam, come here quickly! It is a dinosaur fossil!” she said.
“I told you that we would find one!” Cam said with a smile. “Good job, Lisa. You were right!”
26. What was the team working hard to find?
A. Dinosaur fossils. B. Special bones. C. Ancient plants. D. Hidden treasures.
27. What does the underlined word “miracles” probably mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Dangerous accidents. B. Lucky chances.
C. Amazing things. D. Impossible dreams.
28. How did Lisa feel when she said “Maybe I was wrong”?
A. Excited and hopeful. B. Angry and impatient.
C. Proud and confident. D. Discouraged and sad.
29. Which of the following can we learn about from the passage?
A. Cam had never been on a dig before.
B. Cam encouraged Lisa to keep digging.
C. Lisa found a dinosaur fossil on the first day.
D. The team found a dinosaur fossil soon after they started.
30. What is the purpose of this passage?
A. To prove that dinosaurs once lived in the area.
B. To tell an inspiring story about never giving up.
C. To describe a typical day of a fossil hunting team.
D. To explain how to find dinosaur fossils in the mountains.
(B)
What do you do when you need to look something up? Go to the library? Open an encyclopaedia? Search on the internet? These days, most people go straight to Wikipedia (维基百科), the online encyclopaedia. But how helpful is it?
There’s no doubt that Wikipedia is helpful. Millions of visitors use it every month, and the site can be used in more than 270 different languages. It has much more information than an ordinary encyclopaedia. The information on the site can be changed by thousands of people around the world. Anyone with the internet can use it to share something they love. And they don’t need any formal training.
Of course, there are some controls. Wikipedia has a team of more than 1,500 volunteers. They check for wrong information. But with more than millions of articles to keep an eye on, it isn’t an easy job. So, Wikipedia is also open to pranksters (恶作剧者).
Some of the damage is easy to notice. One prankster drew something bad on Microsoft chairman Bill Gates’ photo, while another prankster said, “Plato was a Hawaiian weather man.” Other things are hard to discover. For example, there might be wrong information in a famous person’s biography. Some of this wrong information once appeared in the newspaper The Daily Mail. None of these are good. So, if you’re going to use Wikipedia, don’t do these things.
31. How does the writer develop Paragraph 1?
A. By listing numbers. B. By giving examples.
C. By comparing facts. D. By asking questions.
32. What can we know about Wikipedia?
A. It is only in English. B. It has little information.
C. We can use it on the internet. D. We need to go to a library to use it.
33. Why does the writer talk about the pranksters?
A. To let people get some training.
B. To ask people not to be pranksters.
C. To tell people how to use Wikipedia freely.
D. To teach people to write information on Wikipedia.
34. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Technology. B. History. C. Environment. D. Sports.
35. Which could be the best title for the passage?
A. The Internet and Wikipedia
B. Why Is Wikipedia So Expensive?
C. A Great Encyclopaedia—Wikipedia
D. How to Look Something Up in Wikipedia?
第二节 项目情境(共7小题;每小题2分,满分14分)
为了帮助学生更有效地使用百科全书,学校图书馆组织了“百科全书与学习”主题活动。老师邀请你担任助理,负责跟进活动的开展。
Task 1 信息匹配(共4小题;每小题2分,满分8分)
请根据每个人的需求,向他们推荐合适的百科全书。
A. Science Encyclopaedia
This book covers physics, chemistry, and biology. It has simple explanations for school projects. You can learn why the Sun shines and how plants grow.
B. Animal World Encyclopaedia
Full of beautiful photos and surprising facts about animals. Learn where lions live, what pandas eat, and how dolphins talk to each other.
C. History Encyclopaedia
It tells important events from ancient to modern times. It includes clear timelines and famous people. Great for understanding wars, discoveries, and great leaders.
D. Geography Encyclopaedia

____36____ Tom loves learning about different countries. He wants to know where the Amazon River is and how people live in India.

____38____ Emma is preparing for a class talk about World War II. She needs a timeline of important wars and leaders.

Task 2 回答问题(共3小题;每小题2分,满分6分)
学校读书会正在讨论“纸质百科全书是否还有存在必要”。请阅读下面文章,提取关键信息 (回答不多于五个词),用于讨论总结。
Are Paper Encyclopaedias Dead?
Twenty years ago, a set of World Book Encyclopaedia was a great treasure in many homes. Families spent a lot of money buying these heavy books. Children would pull out Volume “A” to read about “Africa” or “Airplanes”.
Today, the situation is very different. Sales of printed encyclopaedias have dropped by 80% since 2000. Why? Because information on the Internet is very quick and often free. If a new president is chosen or a new planet is found, a paper book cannot change, but a website can update in minutes. Also, online encyclopaedias have pictures, videos, and sound. You can watch a rocket take off or listen to a baby panda cry.
However, some people still like paper books. They say that staring at a screen for hours can hurt your eyes. Also, paper books do not need batteries or the Internet. For some readers, holding a book is a comfortable experience. You can turn the pages slowly and think. There are no pop-up ads or messages to take your attention away.
Maybe paper encyclopaedias are not dead. They are just becoming less common. Today, most people use online encyclopaedias for quick answers. But paper ones are still loved by collectors, libraries, and those who enjoy the feeling of reading a real book.
40. Why do more and more people use online information?
________________________________________
41. What don’t paper books need compared to online encyclopaedias?
________________________________________
42. What distracts (使分心) people when they read online?

第三节 阅读填空(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)
阅读短文及文后选项,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Numbers in different countries may have different meanings. ____43____ Take “8” for example, the Chinese pronunciation (发音) of the number “8” has almost the same sound as that of the Chinese character “发[fa:]”, which means making plenty of money. ____44____ They believe that the number will bring them more money.
____45____ They think such an idea is only an ignorant (愚昧的) and superstitious (迷信的) belief. A number is one thing, and good luck is another. They will ask, “How can you ever have any good luck simply because of some lucky numbers, even if you don’t work hard, don’t have good chances and don’t get along well with the people around you?”
As for me, I agree with the second idea. ____46____ Perhaps it holds true for some cases, but often it does not. Numbers can never bring good luck to a person at all and our luck is in our own hands. ____47____ Let’s always remember “Chances are only for the prepared mind” and “No pains, no gains”.
A. So, everyone can have good luck only if he tries his best.
B. Clearly, lucky numbers are only a kind of superstitious belief.
C. In China, some people think that some numbers bring them good luck.
D. However, others don’t believe that numbers have anything to do with good luck.
E. So, many Chinese people spend a lot of money to get their telephone numbers or car numbers to include this number “8”.
