I was worried — I would miss many lessons, and the final exam was coming. The first week was terrible. I lay in bed, looking at the ceiling, feeling lonely and useless. Many classmates sent me messages, but after a few days, most of them stopped. I understood — everyone was busy with their own studies. Then one afternoon, my best friend David came. He was carrying two big bags. "Here are my notes for every subject," he said. "I will explain them to you." I was so surprised that I could not say a word. From that day on, David came to my home three times a week. He was not the best at Maths, but he still tried his best to help me with the hard questions. When he could not explain something clearly, we read the textbook again and again. Sometimes we argued about an answer, and sometimes we laughed until my mother told us to be quiet. Six weeks later, I went back to school and took the exam. I did better than I had expected. My teacher said, "You are lucky to have such a good friend." I nodded. Now I understand what friendship really is. It is not about the number of messages you get, but about the person who stays when others leave. David taught me that a true friend is with you through thick and thin. Since then, I have tried to be that kind of person for others, too. 34. Why did the writer feel worried at first? A. Because he lost an important match.　　B. Because David moved to another city.　　C. Because his teacher was angry with him.　　D. Because he would miss many lessons. 35. What did David bring to the writer? A. His notes for every subject.　　B. A football for the match.　　C. Some medicine for his leg.　　D. A new textbook on Maths. 36. What can we infer from Paragraph 4? A. David was the best student at Maths.　　B. The two friends enjoyed themselves.　　C. The writer's mother did not like David.　　D. They finished the work in one day. 37. What does the writer mainly want to tell us? A. Football is a dangerous sport for us.　　B. Notes are more useful than textbooks.　　C. A true friend stays when you need him.　　D. It is easy to make friends at school. C 篇（说明文，4 题，每题 2 分，共 8 分） Why Mistakes Help Us Learn Do you feel afraid when you make a mistake? Many students think that mistakes are bad, and they try to hide them. But scientists say that mistakes are actually an important part of learning. When you make a mistake, your brain works harder. Scientists have found that the brain pays more attention to a wrong answer than to a right one. That is because the brain wants to understand why the answer is wrong, so that it will not make the same mistake again. In this way, a mistake becomes a good chance to learn. Studies in the United States showed something interesting. Two groups of students were asked to learn a new skill. The first group was told to get everything right. The second group was told that making mistakes was normal. In the end, the second group learned the skill faster. Why? Because they were not afraid to try new ways. However, this does not mean that you should make mistakes on purpose. The key point is what you do after a mistake. If you just feel sad and give up, the mistake is useless. But if you look at it carefully and find out the reason, it becomes a step forward. So next time you make a mistake, do not worry too much. Take a deep breath, find out what went wrong, and try again. Remember: no one can do everything right for the first time. Mistakes are not your enemies — they are teachers that help you grow. 38. What do scientists say about mistakes? A. They are an important part of learning.　　B. They should be hidden from other people.　　C. They make the brain work less and less.　　D. They are always bad for our learning. 39. Why does the brain pay more attention to a wrong answer? A. Because wrong answers are easier to remember.　　B. Because the brain is too lazy to work hard.　　C. Because the brain wants to know the reason.　　D. Because students are afraid of being wrong. 40. What did the study in the United States find? A. The first group learned the new skill faster.　　B. Mistakes made the students feel sad and angry.　　C. Students who got everything right did better.　　D. Students who were not afraid to try did better. 41. What is the writer's main purpose? A. To tell students to hide their mistakes.　　B. To show that mistakes can help us learn.　　C. To explain why some students are lazy.　　D. To ask students to stop making mistakes. D 篇（议论文，4 题，每题 2 分，共 8 分） Are School Clubs a Waste of Time? In many middle schools, students can join different clubs after class — the book club, the DIY club, the drama club, and many others. Some parents worry that clubs take up too much time. "Study comes first," they say. "Clubs are just a waste of time." But is that really true? In my opinion, school clubs are not a waste of time at all. First, clubs help us learn things that textbooks cannot teach. In the DIY club, for example, we learn to work with tools and to fix things ourselves. These hands-on skills are useful in our daily life. Second, clubs teach us how to work with others. In a club, we have to listen to different ideas and find answers as a team. This is teamwork, and it is an important ability for the future. No one can live or work alone in the world. Third, clubs can make us happier and healthier. After a long day of lessons, doing something we enjoy helps us relax. A happy student usually learns better than a tired one. Of course, we should not spend all our time on clubs. We still need to finish our schoolwork first and get enough sleep. The key is to make a good plan and keep a balance between study and activities. So I do not agree with the idea that clubs are a waste of time. If we plan our time well, clubs can make our school life richer and more colourful. Instead of taking us away from learning, they can open a new door for us. 42. What do some parents think about school clubs? A. They teach useful skills.　　B. They are a waste of time.　　C. They help students relax.　　D. They should be longer. 43. According to the writer, what can students learn in the DIY club? A. How to write short stories for fun.　　B. How to sing English songs for others.　　C. How to make friends with others online.　　D. How to work with tools and fix things. 44. What does the writer think students should do about clubs and study? A. Keep a balance between them.　　B. Spend all their time on clubs.　　C. Give up clubs and only study.　　D. Study only at the weekend. 45. What is the writer's attitude towards school clubs? A. A bit worried.　　B. Quite angry.　　C. Very supportive.　　D. Uninterested. 四、词汇运用（共 10 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 15 分） A) 用括号中所给词的适当形式填空 46. Many useful things in our daily life were created by great ______ (invent) like Edison. 47.

19 题：空格前"艾米没有嘲笑我"、空格后"她每天下午留下来帮我"，用 Instead（相反地）承接前面的否定，表示她做的不是嘲笑、而是陪伴；However 表强转折不成立，Also 只是并列，Luckily 与逻辑无关。 - 25 题：由后句"此后我不再害怕课上发言"倒推，克服恐惧的办法是"直面"它，选 face；hide、forget 只是回避，并不能真正克服，enjoy 语义相反。 三、阅读理解（2 分 × 15 = 30 分） A 篇（应用文，31–33） 31.【答案】C 【解析】细节理解题。表格 Who 一栏写明 Who: Grade 7 and Grade 8 students，即七、八年级学生可以参加。 32.【答案】A 【解析】细节理解题。表格 When 一栏写明 every Tuesday and Thursday, 4:30–5:30 p.m.，即每周二、周四下午会面。 33.【答案】B 【解析】细节理解题。表格 How to join 一栏写明 fill in an online form before October 20，即须在 10 月 20 日前填写在线表格。 B 篇（记叙文，34–37） 34.【答案】D 【解析】细节理解题。第一段末尾写"我"担心的原因：会缺很多课，而期末考试就要到了（would miss many lessons, and the final exam was coming）。 35.【答案】A 【解析】细节理解题。第三段 David 说"这是我各科的笔记"（Here are my notes for every subject），带来的是各科笔记。 36.【答案】B 【解析】推理判断题。第四段写两人有时为一个答案争论，有时笑到"我"妈妈让他们安静，说明这对朋友相处得轻松愉快，故选 B。文中明确 He was not the best at Maths，A 错误；C 无依据；D 与"一周来三次"矛盾。 37.【答案】C 【解析】主旨大意题。末段"a true friend is with you through thick and thin"（真朋友与你同甘共苦、不离不弃）点明主旨：真正的朋友在你需要时始终相伴。 C 篇（说明文，38–41） 38.【答案】A 【解析】细节理解题。第一段引出科学家观点：mistakes are actually an important part of learning（犯错其实是学习的重要组成部分）。 39.【答案】C 【解析】细节理解题。第二段说明大脑之所以更关注错误答案，是因为它想弄清为什么错，从而避免再犯同样的错。 40.【答案】D 【解析】细节理解题。第三段的美国研究显示：被告知"犯错很正常"的一组学得更快（the second group learned the skill faster），即不害怕犯错的学生学得更快。 41.【答案】B 【解析】主旨/写作意图题。全文围绕"犯错为什么有助于学习"展开，并给出建议，写作目的是说明错误可以帮助我们学习。 D 篇（议论文，42–45） 42.【答案】B 【解析】细节理解题。第一段写一些家长的观点：Clubs are just a waste of time（社团纯粹是浪费时间）。 43.【答案】D 【解析】细节理解题。第二段说在 DIY 社里"we learn to work with tools and to fix things ourselves"，即学会使用工具、自己动手修理东西。 44.【答案】A 【解析】推理判断题。末段作者提出"make a good plan and keep a balance between study and activities"（做好计划，在学习和活动之间保持平衡），主张二者兼顾。 45.【答案】C 【解析】观点态度题。作者先驳斥"社团浪费时间"的说法，再逐条列举社团的价值，末段称赞社团能让校园生活更丰富、多彩，态度明显是支持的。 四、词汇运用（1.5 分 × 10 = 15 分） 46.【答案】inventors 【解析】invent（发明）＋后缀 -or 表示"从事某动作的人"，即"发明家"；此处泛指"像爱迪生这样的众多发明家"，用可数名词复数 inventors，故填 inventors。 47.【答案】encourages 【解析】主语 Our English teacher 为第三人称单数，一般现在时，动词加 -s。encourage sb to do sth 意为"鼓励某人做某事"。 48.【答案】patient 【解析】patience（耐心）去掉词尾 -ce 加 -t 变为形容词 patient（有耐心的）。such a patient teacher that … 意为"如此有耐心的老师，以至于……"。 49.【答案】curious 【解析】curiosity（好奇心）变形容词 curious（好奇的），be curious about sth 意为"对某事物好奇"，与"周围每一件新鲜事"呼应。 50.【答案】exciting 【解析】excite（使兴奋）加 -ing 变为形容词 exciting，修饰事物 the match；so … that 意为"如此……以至于"。 51.【答案】aware 【解析】"意识到"对应形容词 aware，be aware of sth 意为"意识到某事物"；首字母 a 印证。 52.【答案】caring 【解析】"体贴的"对应形容词 caring，与后句"总是先想到别人"呼应；首字母 c 印证。 53.【答案】products 【解析】"产品"对应可数名词 product，此处泛指、用复数 products；首字母 p 印证。 54.【答案】untie 【解析】"解开"对应动词 untie，由动词 tie（系、绑）加否定前缀 un- 构成；本句为祈使句，用动词原形；首字母 u 印证。 55.【答案】improve 【解析】"提高"对应动词 improve，help sb (to) do sth 中可用动词原形；"口语"用 spoken English；首字母 i 印证。 五、缺词填空（1.5 分 × 10 = 15 分） 56.【答案】reading 【解析】根据首字母 r 及语境，reading corner 意为"读书角"，reading 作定语修饰 corner。 57.【答案】collected 【解析】首字母 c 提示"收集"，collect 与"从家里带旧书来"呼应；全文为一般过去时，故用过去式 collected。 58.【答案】beautiful 【解析】首字母 b 提示"漂亮的"，形容词作宾语补足语，make it more beautiful 意为"让它更漂亮"，与做纸花装饰呼应。 59.【答案】heavy 【解析】首字母 h 及"书架承受不住、书不断掉落"提示，书太"沉"，用形容词 heavy。 60.【答案】fixed 【解析】首字母 f 提示"修理、固定"，与前句"找来几块木头"呼应；用过去式 fixed。 61.【答案】problems 【解析】首字母 p 及"并不容易"提示，meet problems 意为"遇到问题"，用名词复数 problems。 62.【答案】quietly 【解析】首字母 q 提示"安静地"，用副词 quietly 修饰动词 read，read quietly 意为"安静地阅读"。 63.【答案】together 【解析】首字母 t 及"能解决几乎任何问题"提示，work together 意为"合作、一起努力"，用副词 together。 64.【答案】once 【解析】首字母 o 提示"一旦"，once 意为"一旦"。句意"一项新技能一旦在日常生活中加以运用，就变得容易了"，与前文"我们不但建了一个读书角，还学到了重要的东西"相呼应，use it in our daily life（把它用在日常生活中）是状语，说明运用场合。 65.【答案】power 【解析】首字母 p 及末句"我们能解决几乎任何问题"提示，the power of working together 意为"合作的力量"，用名词 power。 六、句子翻译（2 分 × 5 = 10 分） 66.【答案】 My best friend is very humorous, and she always makes me laugh. 【解析】"幽默的"用 humorous 作表语；"总是"用 always 置于实义动词前；"让我笑"用 make sb do sth，laugh 用动词原形。 67.【答案】 Our school is bigger than theirs, but they have more clubs than we do. 【解析】"比他们的学校大"用比较级 bigger than；"他们的学校"为避免重复用名词性物主代词 theirs；"社团更多"用 more clubs；"than we do"中 do 替代 have，避免重复。 68.【答案】 As long as we keep practising, we will surely learn English well. 【解析】"只要"用 as long as 引导条件状语从句；"坚持练习"用 keep doing sth；"一定能"用 will surely；"学好英语"用 learn English well。 69.【答案】 You'd better read the instructions first before you start the DIY job. 【解析】"你最好"用 had better（缩写 'd better）后接动词原形；"说明书"用 instructions（常用复数）；"在……之前"用 before 引导时间状语从句，从句用一般现在时表将来。 70.【答案】 Chinese knots are a traditional Chinese handicraft, and they stand for good luck. 【解析】"中国结"用 Chinese knots（复数表类别）；"传统的"用 traditional；"手工艺术"用 handicraft；"代表"用 stand for；"好运"用 good luck。 七、书面表达（满分 20 分） 评分标准（五档） 档次 分数 描述 第五档 17–20 三要点齐全，内容丰富，语言准确、句式多样，衔接自然，仅个别小错 第四档 13–16 三要点齐全，语言较准确，有少量错误但不影响理解 第三档 9–12 要点基本齐全，语言有较多错误，尚能表达主要意思 第二档 5–8 只写出部分要点，错误较多，影响理解 第一档 0–4 内容过少或无法理解 分值细化（20 分） 项目 分值 内容要点（外貌性格 / 难忘的事 / 友谊理解，三项齐全） 7 分 语言准确性（语法、拼写、时态、单复数） 5 分 结构连贯（段落衔接、连接词使用） 3 分 书写与词数（80–120 词） 2 分 开放性拓展（3 分） 内容有真实细节、感悟有个人色彩、适当发挥——任一点突出即可得 3 分 参考范文（约 108 词） Hello, everyone!

I was worried — I would miss many lessons, and the final exam was coming. The first week was terrible. I lay in bed, looking at the ceiling, feeling lonely and useless. Many classmates sent me messages, but after a few days, most of them stopped. I understood — everyone was busy with their own studies. Then one afternoon, my best friend David came. He was carrying two big bags. "Here are my notes for every subject," he said. "I will explain them to you." I was so surprised that I could not say a word. From that day on, David came to my home three times a week. He was not the best at Maths, but he still tried his best to help me with the hard questions. When he could not explain something clearly, we read the textbook again and again. Sometimes we argued about an answer, and sometimes we laughed until my mother told us to be quiet. Six weeks later, I went back to school and took the exam. I did better than I had expected. My teacher said, "You are lucky to have such a good friend." I nodded. Now I understand what friendship really is. It is not about the number of messages you get, but about the person who stays when others leave. David taught me that a true friend is with you through thick and thin. Since then, I have tried to be that kind of person for others, too. 34. Why did the writer feel worried at first? A. Because he lost an important match.　　B. Because David moved to another city.　　C. Because his teacher was angry with him.　　D. Because he would miss many lessons. 35. What did David bring to the writer? A. His notes for every subject.　　B. A football for the match.　　C. Some medicine for his leg.　　D. A new textbook on Maths. 36. What can we infer from Paragraph 4? A. David was the best student at Maths.　　B. The two friends enjoyed themselves.　　C. The writer's mother did not like David.　　D. They finished the work in one day. 37. What does the writer mainly want to tell us? A. Football is a dangerous sport for us.　　B. Notes are more useful than textbooks.　　C. A true friend stays when you need him.　　D. It is easy to make friends at school. C 篇（说明文，4 题，每题 2 分，共 8 分） Why Mistakes Help Us Learn Do you feel afraid when you make a mistake? Many students think that mistakes are bad, and they try to hide them. But scientists say that mistakes are actually an important part of learning. When you make a mistake, your brain works harder. Scientists have found that the brain pays more attention to a wrong answer than to a right one. That is because the brain wants to understand why the answer is wrong, so that it will not make the same mistake again. In this way, a mistake becomes a good chance to learn. Studies in the United States showed something interesting. Two groups of students were asked to learn a new skill. The first group was told to get everything right. The second group was told that making mistakes was normal. In the end, the second group learned the skill faster. Why? Because they were not afraid to try new ways. However, this does not mean that you should make mistakes on purpose. The key point is what you do after a mistake. If you just feel sad and give up, the mistake is useless. But if you look at it carefully and find out the reason, it becomes a step forward. So next time you make a mistake, do not worry too much. Take a deep breath, find out what went wrong, and try again. Remember: no one can do everything right for the first time. Mistakes are not your enemies — they are teachers that help you grow. 38. What do scientists say about mistakes? A. They are an important part of learning.　　B. They should be hidden from other people.　　C. They make the brain work less and less.　　D. They are always bad for our learning. 39. Why does the brain pay more attention to a wrong answer? A. Because wrong answers are easier to remember.　　B. Because the brain is too lazy to work hard.　　C. Because the brain wants to know the reason.　　D. Because students are afraid of being wrong. 40. What did the study in the United States find? A. The first group learned the new skill faster.　　B. Mistakes made the students feel sad and angry.　　C. Students who got everything right did better.　　D. Students who were not afraid to try did better. 41. What is the writer's main purpose? A. To tell students to hide their mistakes.　　B. To show that mistakes can help us learn.　　C. To explain why some students are lazy.　　D. To ask students to stop making mistakes. D 篇（议论文，4 题，每题 2 分，共 8 分） Are School Clubs a Waste of Time? In many middle schools, students can join different clubs after class — the book club, the DIY club, the drama club, and many others. Some parents worry that clubs take up too much time. "Study comes first," they say. "Clubs are just a waste of time." But is that really true? In my opinion, school clubs are not a waste of time at all. First, clubs help us learn things that textbooks cannot teach. In the DIY club, for example, we learn to work with tools and to fix things ourselves. These hands-on skills are useful in our daily life. Second, clubs teach us how to work with others. In a club, we have to listen to different ideas and find answers as a team. This is teamwork, and it is an important ability for the future. No one can live or work alone in the world. Third, clubs can make us happier and healthier. After a long day of lessons, doing something we enjoy helps us relax. A happy student usually learns better than a tired one. Of course, we should not spend all our time on clubs. We still need to finish our schoolwork first and get enough sleep. The key is to make a good plan and keep a balance between study and activities. So I do not agree with the idea that clubs are a waste of time. If we plan our time well, clubs can make our school life richer and more colourful. Instead of taking us away from learning, they can open a new door for us. 42. What do some parents think about school clubs? A. They teach useful skills.　　B. They are a waste of time.　　C. They help students relax.　　D. They should be longer. 43. According to the writer, what can students learn in the DIY club? A. How to write short stories for fun.　　B. How to sing English songs for others.　　C. How to make friends with others online.　　D. How to work with tools and fix things. 44. What does the writer think students should do about clubs and study? A. Keep a balance between them.　　B. Spend all their time on clubs.　　C. Give up clubs and only study.　　D. Study only at the weekend. 45. What is the writer's attitude towards school clubs? A. A bit worried.　　B. Quite angry.　　C. Very supportive.　　D. Uninterested. 四、词汇运用（共 10 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 15 分） A) 用括号中所给词的适当形式填空 46. Many useful things in our daily life were created by great ______ (invent) like Edison. 47.
