第I卷(选择题 共60分)
一、单项选择(本题共15小题;每题1分,满分15分)
在下列各题A、B、C、D四个选项中选择一个能填入题干空白处的最佳答案。
1.In autumn, the weather in Suqian is much cooler than ________ in Guangzhou.
A.it B.them C.that D.those
【答案】C
【详解】句意:秋天,宿迁的天气比广州的天气凉爽得多。
it它;them它们;that那个;those那些。根据“In autumn, the weather in Suqian is much cooler than...in Guangzhou.”可知,此处是比较级结构,比较的对象是weather;weather是不可数名词,在比较级中,指代前面出现的不可数名词常用that。
2.The fresh fruit on the farm is nice. ________ you try some, you will surely buy some.
A.Before B.Once C.After D.Until
【答案】B
【详解】句意:农场里的新鲜水果很好。一旦你尝一些,你肯定会买一些。
Before在……之前;Once一旦;After在……之后;Until直到。根据“The fresh fruit on the farm is nice.”及“you will surely buy some”可知,此处表示一种条件关系,意为“一旦……就……”,once符合语境。
3.My friend Betty is ________ to listen to my problems again and again when I feel down.
A.patient enough B.enough patient C.honest enough D.enough honest
【答案】A
【详解】句意:我的朋友贝蒂足够耐心,当我情绪低落时,她一遍又一遍地倾听我的问题。
patient耐心的;honest诚实的。enough修饰形容词时要放在形容词之后,排除B、D;根据“listen to my problems again and again”可知,反复倾听问题需要耐心,符合语境。用patient enough。
4.The true friend ________ us ________ a lot of warm support, so we should value the friendship.
A.offers; to B.offers; with C.provides; for D.provides; with
【答案】D
【详解】句意:真正的朋友给我们提供了大量的温暖支持,所以我们应该珍惜这份友谊。
provide提供;offer提供。两词都有“提供”之意,但搭配不同。provide的固定搭配为provide sb with sth(给某人提供某物)或 provide sth for sb(为某人提供某物);而offer的搭配为offer sb sth或offer sth to sb,其后不接介词with。本题空格后为“us+a lot of warm support”,构成“provide sb with sth”结构,应填provides;with。
5.________ afraid of making mistakes when you do DIY. Just try!
A.Not be B.Be not C.Doesn’t be D.Don’t be
【答案】D
【详解】句意:做手工时不要害怕犯错,尽管试!
否定祈使句用Don’t + 动词原形。故选D。
6.There is ________ wrong with my computer. It doesn’t work.
A.anything B.nothing C.everything D.something
【答案】D
【详解】句意:我的电脑出问题了,它无法运行。
anything任何事物;nothing没有什么;everything所有事物;something某事某物。句中“It doesn’t work”提示电脑出了故障,短语something wrong with,意为“某物出了故障”,且本句是肯定陈述句,因此选择something。
7.My grandma made some ________ for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
A.mooncake B.mooncakes C.mooncaking D.mooncaked
【答案】B
【详解】句意:奶奶为中秋节做了一些月饼。
some后接复数名词,mooncake变mooncakes。
8.Teachers’ Day in China is in the ________ month of the year.
A.ninth B.nine C.nineth D.ninety
【答案】A
【详解】句意:中国的教师节在一年中的第九个月。

—________ exciting news!
A.How an B.What an C.How D.What
【答案】D
【详解】句意:——赵家驹在意大利赢得巨人之旅330公里越野赛,成为该赛事历史上第一位中国冠军和第一位亚洲冠军。——多么令人激动的消息!
答句是感叹句,中心词news是不可数名词,前面不能用冠词,用What引导感叹句,结构为“What+形容词+不可数名词!”。How引导感叹句时,中心词是形容词/副词。故选What。
10.— What do you think of the subject Physics (物理)?
— In my opinion, it is ________ more difficult than expected.
A.a little of B.a bit little C.a little bit D.a bit of

【答案】A
【详解】句意:——你的英语真好!你能告诉我学好英语的方法吗?——多亏了我的老师和同学,我最近进步很大。
the way to do sth.是固定用法,意为“做某事的方法”,第一空填不定式to learn;Thanks to是固定短语,意为“多亏,由于”,后接名词表示原因,第二空填介词 to。
12.—Does your brother like reading books?
—Not really. He ________ reads in his free time.
A.often B.usually C.seldom D.always
【答案】C
【详解】句意:——你的弟弟喜欢读书吗?——算不上喜欢。他空闲时间很少读书。

She is kind and friendly她善良友好;She is tall with short hair她个子高,留着短发;She likes singing very much她非常喜欢唱歌;She is good at Maths她擅长数学。问句“What does your deskmate look like?”用于询问外貌,因此回答要描述长相。

A.himself B.themselves C.ourselves D.yourselves
【答案】B
【详解】句意:汤姆,让孩子们自己拿果汁喝。
考查反身代词。himself他自己;themselves他们自己;ourselves我们自己;yourselves你们自己。help oneself to“随便吃……”;宾语“the boys”为第三人称的复数名词,应用themselves指代。故选B。
15.—Reading makes a full man.

A.I truly agree with you B.You are joking C.It sounds like fun D.I don’t think so
【答案】A

考查情景交际。 I truly agree with you我真地同意你的看法;You are joking你在开玩笑;It sounds like fun听起来有趣;I don’t think so我认为不是这样。根据“Wherever I go, there is always a book with me.”可知,此处是说同意对方的看法。故选A。
二、完形填空(共15小题:每小题1分,计15分)
先通读短文,掌握其大意,然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个可以填入相应空白处的最佳答案。
Today I’m visiting The Studio in Liverpool. It’s the UK’s first gaming school for students between the ages of fourteen and nineteen. The school is 16 normal (普通的) schools. Students mix lessons with real work. Each day 17 at 9:00 a.m. and finishes at 5:00 p.m., like a typical working day.
The 18 is 8:45 a.m. and some students are arriving at school. Some are already enjoying a free breakfast inside. They’re all 19 uniforms and they look smart.
Lessons 20 start at 9:20 a.m. But today is Games Day at the school and the students are doing projects in teams all day. Each 21 is designing, writing and making a computer game. They have adults (成年人) to 22 them. But the adults aren’t teachers. They’re real computer game designers. In fact, there are a lot of computer game 23 near the school. Students often test games for these companies and sometimes they get 24 for it. Many students save it as school fees (费用).
Suddenly it’s 1:00 p.m. and I’m getting 25 . When is lunch? “There isn’t a special time,” a student tells me. “The school serves (供应) food all day so students can take a break 26 they need to like in the working world.”
Students don’t only study games, of course. They learn 27 like Maths, Foreign Languages and History. They take tests too. But at the end of their time at the school, they also 28 a qualification (资格) in designing computer games.
The 29 at the school look happy and energetic. They work hard to learn and get good 30 . I want to be a student at this school too.

【导语】本文介绍英国利物浦一所独特的游戏学校,讲述它的作息、教学模式以及学生在校的学习内容
【详解】16.句意:这所学校和普通学校不一样。
由“It’s the UK’s first gaming school”能够得知这是英国首家游戏特色学校,和常规学校存在区别,different from“与……不同”,符合文意;close to“靠近”、famous for“因……出名”、good for“对……有益”,语义和原文逻辑不匹配。
17.句意:每天早上9点开始上课,下午5点放学,就和典型的工作日一样。
后半句“and finishes at 5:00 p.m.”提示此处填写和结束对应的“开始”,starts“开始”,契合句子时间逻辑;opens“打开”、stops“停止”、closes“关闭”,无法和finishes形成时间呼应。
18.句意:时间是早上8点45分,一些学生正在到校。
后面“8:45 a.m.”是具体时刻,time“时间”,和后文时间信息对应;truth“真相”、place“地点”、reason“原因”,不能用来引出具体时刻。
19.句意:他们都穿着校服,看起来很精神。
wear uniforms是固定表达,意为穿校服,wearing“穿着”,贴合校园场景;choosing“选择”、having“拥有”、washing“清洗”,和uniforms搭配不符合校园常识。
20.句意:课程通常在早上9点20分开始。
“But today is Games Day”说明今天是特殊活动日,和日常安排形成对比,usually“通常”,用来描述常规情况;never“从不”、sometimes“有时”、seldom“很少”,无法体现平日和今日的对比关系。
21.句意:每个小组都在设计、编写并且制作一款电脑游戏。
前文“the students are doing projects in teams all day”点明学生以小组形式完成项目,team“小组”,承接上文team的信息;lesson“课程”、teacher“老师”、day“日子”,和in teams的背景信息脱节。
22.句意:有成年人来帮助他们。
结合语境,成年人的角色是辅助学生完成游戏项目,help“帮助”,贴合人物作用;provide“提供”、suggest“建议”、follow“跟随”,不能准确表达成年人协助学生的含义。
23.句意:事实上,学校附近有很多电脑游戏公司。
下一句“Students often test games for these companies”出现了companies,前后形成原词复现,companies“公司”符合;shops“商店”、factories“工厂”、clubs“俱乐部”,无法和后文these companies呼应。
24.句意:学生经常为这些公司测试游戏,有时还能因此拿到报酬。
后文“Many students save it as school fees”说明学生测试游戏会获得可以存起来当学费的东西,money“钱”,符合这个逻辑;attention“注意力”、experience“经验”、advice“建议”,不能够被存作学费。
25.句意:突然到了下午1点,我饿了。
后文“When is lunch?”是询问午饭时间,hungry“饥饿的”符合,和询问午餐的行为对应;bored“无聊的”、energetic“精力充沛的”、busy“忙碌的”,和下文找午餐的内容无关联。
26.句意:学校全天供应食物,所以学生可以在需要休息的时候休息,就像在工作环境中一样。
本句是时间逻辑,表达“在需要休息的时刻”,when引导时间状语从句,符合;so表因果、but表转折、because表原因,逻辑连词类型和句子结构不符。
27.句意:他们学习数学、外语、历史这类科目。
“Maths, Foreign Languages and History”都属于学校学习的学科,subjects“科目”符合;games“游戏”、tests“测试”、activities“活动”,不能概括数学、历史这类学习内容。
28.句意:但是在毕业时,他们也会拿到电脑游戏设计的资格证书。
get a qualification是固定搭配,表示获得资格证书,get“得到、获得”符合;improve“改善”、make“制作”、show“展示”,不和qualification构成这个常用搭配。
29.句意:学校里的学生看起来开心又精力充沛。
全文的核心叙述对象是在校学习的这群孩子,students“学生”符合;workers“工人”、designers“设计师”、foreigners“外国人”,不是本段描述的主体人群。
30.句意:他们努力学习,取得好成绩。
get good grades是固定短语,意为取得好成绩,符合努力学习的语境,grades“分数、成绩”符合;friends“朋友”、tasks“任务”、books“书本”,无法和get good搭配表达学习相关含义。
三、阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,计30分)
阅读下列内容,从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。
A
Our cities are getting bigger. More people come to live in them every year, so we need more buildings and more houses. At the same time, many people say they want more parks and more green places. So which do we need more—parks or tall buildings?
Some people think tall buildings are more important. A tall building can hold hundreds of families, so we can save the land for farms and forests. With schools, shops and offices in one place, people will spend less time on the road. “We cannot stop the city from growing,” a planner says. “So we must build higher and use the land better.”
Others think parks matter more. Green places give us clean air and quiet moments. Children need to run on the grass, and old people need to sit under the trees. A park is also a good place for people to meet and talk, so neighbours can become friends. “A city without parks is like a house without windows,” one writer says.
In my opinion, a good city needs both. Tall buildings give people a place to live and work, and parks give them a place to rest and play. The real question is not “parks or buildings”, but how to plan them well. With good planning, we can have a green and busy city at the same time—a city that is good for everyone, today and tomorrow.
31.Why do some people think tall buildings are important?
A.They are cheaper to build. B.They can save the land.
C.They are more beautiful. D.They use less energy.
32.What is the writer’s opinion?
A.Cities should stop growing. B.Parks are more important than buildings.
C.People should move to the countryside. D.A good city needs both buildings and parks.
33.What is the best title for the text?
A.Parks or Buildings? B.How to Build a Tall Building
C.Life in the Countryside D.The History of Our City
【答案】31.B 32.D 33.A
【导语】本文讨论了城市发展中,我们更需要公园还是高楼,作者认为一座好城市两者都不可或缺。
【详解】31.细节理解题。根据原文第二段“A tall building can hold hundreds of families, so we can save the land for farms and forests”,可知一些人认为高楼重要是因为它们可以节约土地。
32.细节理解题。根据原文第四段“In my opinion, a good city needs both”,可知作者的观点是一座好城市既需要建筑也需要公园。
33.最佳标题题。根据全文反复讨论“parks or tall buildings”这个话题,可知最佳标题是“Parks or Buildings?”。
B
Schools in China are studying how they can put VR(virtual reality虚拟现实) lessons into their classroom experience.One such lesson uses VR to teach children fire safety.Instead of pens and paper,students wear VR headsets in the classroom.They are put into a virtual environment where a fire has broken out.They must find their way out and escape carefully.

【分析】本文主要讲述了秋天是进行户外运动和锻炼的最佳季节。
【解答】38 词义猜测题。根据前文"Many schools hold sports games in autumn."(许多学校在秋季举行体育比赛。)可知,此处指秋季或许是锻炼身体的最佳季节,因此work out在这里是"做运动/锻炼"的意思。故选C。
39 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句"No more worrying about colds—autumn makes outdoor exercise safer,even when playing for a long time."(再也不用担心感冒了——秋天让户外运动更加安全,即使长时间进行运动也是如此。)可知,秋天使户外运动更安全,即使是长时间活动。故选C。
40 细节理解题。根据第四段"They're full of vitamins,delicious but not expensive."(它们富含维生素,味道美味且价格不贵。)可知,秋天的食物富含维生素、美味且不贵。故选B。
41 推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章第一段提出观点,第二至五段分别从天气、身心健康、食物供应和为过冬做准备等方面阐述了秋天适合锻炼的原因。所以文章是列举理由展开。故选D。
D
Are you shy sometimes? The answer from 16-year-old Liu Yuexian is “Yes”. “When my teacher asked me to come to the blackboard, I was too nervous to work out the problem,” said Liu. “I thought everyone was looking at me.”
Do you feel the same as Liu? Experts have found that more than 80 percent of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention. Shyness means feeling frightened when you’re around other people. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences. It’s OK if it takes you a while to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people.
In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It’s just a case of how much. Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. But some become so shy that they won’t go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay for their food. Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.
If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are smarter because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. You see, being shy isn’t all bad. But remember not to let good opportunities pass you by just because of it. If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practise spoken English in front of others, just do it! There’s nothing to be afraid of.
42._________ of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention.
A.Less than 80% B.More than 80%
C.Less than 60% D.All
43.What does the underlined word “frightened” mean?
A.兴奋的 B.勇敢的 C.自信的 D.害怕的
44.What can we learn from the third paragraph?
A.Shyness can’t stop you from doing something you want to do.
B.Being shy is a big problem.
C.If shyness stops you from doing something you want to do, it is bad for you.
D.All kinds of shyness are good for you.
45.Why are shy people smarter according to some experts?
A.Because they are good at working. B.Because they think less and talk more.
C.Because they think more and talk less. D.Because they can speak in front of others.
【答案】42.B 43.D 44.C 45.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,以刘月贤的例子引入,介绍了害羞这种情绪,说明大部分中学生都有害羞的感受,区分了轻微害羞与过度害羞的不同影响,同时点明害羞也存在优点,鼓励大家勇敢行动。
【详解】42.原文第二段提到“Experts have found that more than 80 percent of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention.”,超过80%的中学生害怕成为关注的焦点,因此选B。
43.原文第二段“Shyness means feeling frightened when you're around other people.”,害羞就是在人群身边感到害怕,frightened意为害怕的,因此选D。
44.原文第三段“But some become so shy that they won't go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay for their food…This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.”,如果害羞阻碍你去做想做的事,这种害羞对你是不利的,因此选C。
45.原文第四段“Some experts say shy people are smarter because they think more and talk less.”,专家认为害羞的人更聪明,是因为他们思考更多、说话更少,因此选C。

五、阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,计10分)
Days pass by. It seems that daily life will become boring if nothing unexpected happens in our lives. The sense of ceremony (仪式) from special days keeps our feelings fresh and increases expectations of life.
Mrs Li has two children. Li Xin is her 15-year-old daughter. Li Lei is Li Xin’s brother. He’s two years older than Li Xin.
A new semester should begin with a sense of ceremony. On the first day of new term, Li Xin sat in front of the TV and watched the First Class, an educational programme of CCTV. The First Class encouraged her to study hard and be a useful person.
Another exciting thing to bring her the sense of ceremony is the flag-raising ceremony. On Monday morning, students were dressed in school uniforms and stood in neat lines on the playground quietly. While Li Xin was singing along with the national anthem and watching the rising flag, the sense of national pride and love for the country came into her heart.
Li Xin will leave junior high school this year. She expects the moving moment of graduation ceremony. She will never forget the important people in her life who helped and supported her — her parents, her teachers and her friends. She will think about what they’ve done for her and hopes that they will be proud of her in the future.
As for Li Lei, he can’t wait to grow up, as he can make his own decisions. He always asks a question: “At what age do I really become an adult?” In China, the 18th birthday is a very important event for young people because they can vote and learn to drive a car, so Mrs Li thinks of Li Lei’s birthday as the most important event. She will have a big birthday party for her son. Li Lei gradually realizes that becoming an adult means learning how to be independent and responsible.
Every moment to record a meaningful event brings a sense of ceremony and makes our lives colourful.
根据短文内容,回答下列问题。每题答案不超过10个词。
56.How old is Li Lei?
57.What did the First Class encourage Li Xin to do?
58.When did Li Xin take part in the flag-raising ceremony?
59.Why does Li Lei want to grow up?
60.To Li Lei, what does becoming an adult mean?
【答案】56.He is 17 years old. 57.To study hard and be a useful person. 58.On Monday morning. 59.Because he can make his own decisions. 60.Learning how to be independent and responsible.
【导语】本文主要讲述仪式感能让生活鲜活多彩,通过李欣和李磊兄妹的经历,介绍了开学第一课、升旗仪式、毕业典礼、十八岁生日等充满仪式感的事件,阐释仪式感的意义。
【详解】56.第二段中“Li Xin is her 15-year-old daughter. Li Lei is Li Xin’s brother. He’s two years older than Li Xin.”介绍了李欣15岁,李磊比她大2岁,所以是17岁。
57.第三段中“The First Class encouraged her to study hard and be a useful person.”说明《开学第一课》鼓励了李欣努力学习,成为有用的人。
58.第四段中“Another exciting thing to bring her the sense of ceremony is the flag-raising ceremony. On Monday morning, students were dressed in school uniforms and stood in neat lines on the playground quietly.”介绍了升旗仪式的时间是周一早上。
59.倒数第二段中“As for Li Lei, he can’t wait to grow up, as he can make his own decisions.”指出李磊盼着长大是因为可以自己做决定。
60.倒数第二段中“Li Lei gradually realizes that becoming an adult means learning how to be independent and responsible.”提到李磊意识到成年意味着学会独立和有责任感。

【导语】本文是一篇人物介绍类记叙文,作者回忆求学期间遇到的英语老师Mr. Leo,这位富有才华和魅力的老师对作者产生了深远的影响。
【详解】61.句意:没有谁能像我们的英语老师里奥先生那样给我留下如此深刻的印象。根据“None has impressed me so...as”可知,句子要表达“没有谁能像……一样达到这样的程度”,可用“much”修饰动词“impressed”。故填much。
62.句意:他身材并不高大,但才华与能力很好地弥补了这一点。根据“it is very well made up by his talents and...”可知,空格处填和“talents”类似的名词,“abilities”意为“能力”,指内在素养,符合题意。故填abilities。

66.句意:无论是《哦,船长!我的船长!》《未选择的路》还是《昔日离别》,他用富有吸引力的教学方式,让我们记住课堂所学。“make sb. do sth.”意为“让某人做某事”,句子是一般现在时,主语是“he”,动词“make”用三单形式“makes”。故填makes。
67.句意:除此之外,在备考方面他也是一位优秀的指导者,尽管他认为考试并不是全部。根据“although he thinks that they are not...”和首字母提示可知,句子要表达考试并非一切,“everything”意为“一切”,符合题意。故填everything。

69.句意:我们可以很容易地亲近他,和他倾诉我们的难题、疑惑以及各种事情。根据“We can get close to him...”和首字母提示可知,句子需填一个副词来修饰动词“get close to...”,“easily”意为“容易地”,符合题意。故填easily。
70.句意:他总是看到事物积极的一面,并且期待我们展现出最好的一面。固定搭配“expect the best from sb.”意为“期待某人做到最好”,符合语境。故填best。

A
Our cities are getting bigger. More people come to live in them every year, so we need more buildings and more houses. At the same time, many people say they want more parks and more green places. So which do we need more—parks or tall buildings?
Some people think tall buildings are more important. A tall building can hold hundreds of families, so we can save the land for farms and forests. With schools, shops and offices in one place, people will spend less time on the road. “We cannot stop the city from growing,” a planner says. “So we must build higher and use the land better.”
Others think parks matter more. Green places give us clean air and quiet moments. Children need to run on the grass, and old people need to sit under the trees. A park is also a good place for people to meet and talk, so neighbours can become friends. “A city without parks is like a house without windows,” one writer says.
In my opinion, a good city needs both. Tall buildings give people a place to live and work, and parks give them a place to rest and play. The real question is not “parks or buildings”, but how to plan them well. With good planning, we can have a green and busy city at the same time—a city that is good for everyone, today and tomorrow.
31.Why do some people think tall buildings are important?
A.They are cheaper to build. B.They can save the land.
C.They are more beautiful. D.They use less energy.
32.What is the writer’s opinion?
A.Cities should stop growing. B.Parks are more important than buildings.
C.People should move to the countryside. D.A good city needs both buildings and parks.
33.What is the best title for the text?
A.Parks or Buildings? B.How to Build a Tall Building
C.Life in the Countryside D.The History of Our City

"We need to do more to cut down the cost and improve the user's experience," said Huang Ronghuai,professor at the Smart Learning Institute under Beijing Normal University, "But we are sure that we will change the model of education in the future."

Are you shy sometimes? The answer from 16-year-old Liu Yuexian is “Yes”. “When my teacher asked me to come to the blackboard, I was too nervous to work out the problem,” said Liu. “I thought everyone was looking at me.”
Do you feel the same as Liu? Experts have found that more than 80 percent of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention. Shyness means feeling frightened when you’re around other people. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences. It’s OK if it takes you a while to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people.
In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It’s just a case of how much. Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. But some become so shy that they won’t go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay for their food. Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.
If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are smarter because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. You see, being shy isn’t all bad. But remember not to let good opportunities pass you by just because of it. If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practise spoken English in front of others, just do it! There’s nothing to be afraid of.
42._________ of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention.
A.Less than 80% B.More than 80%
C.Less than 60% D.All
43.What does the underlined word “frightened” mean?
A.兴奋的 B.勇敢的 C.自信的 D.害怕的
44.What can we learn from the third paragraph?
A.Shyness can’t stop you from doing something you want to do.
B.Being shy is a big problem.
C.If shyness stops you from doing something you want to do, it is bad for you.
D.All kinds of shyness are good for you.
45.Why are shy people smarter according to some experts?
A.Because they are good at working. B.Because they think less and talk more.
C.Because they think more and talk less. D.Because they can speak in front of others.

五、阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,计10分)
Days pass by. It seems that daily life will become boring if nothing unexpected happens in our lives. The sense of ceremony (仪式) from special days keeps our feelings fresh and increases expectations of life.
Mrs Li has two children. Li Xin is her 15-year-old daughter. Li Lei is Li Xin’s brother. He’s two years older than Li Xin.
A new semester should begin with a sense of ceremony. On the first day of new term, Li Xin sat in front of the TV and watched the First Class, an educational programme of CCTV. The First Class encouraged her to study hard and be a useful person.
Another exciting thing to bring her the sense of ceremony is the flag-raising ceremony. On Monday morning, students were dressed in school uniforms and stood in neat lines on the playground quietly. While Li Xin was singing along with the national anthem and watching the rising flag, the sense of national pride and love for the country came into her heart.
Li Xin will leave junior high school this year. She expects the moving moment of graduation ceremony. She will never forget the important people in her life who helped and supported her — her parents, her teachers and her friends. She will think about what they’ve done for her and hopes that they will be proud of her in the future.
As for Li Lei, he can’t wait to grow up, as he can make his own decisions. He always asks a question: “At what age do I really become an adult?” In China, the 18th birthday is a very important event for young people because they can vote and learn to drive a car, so Mrs Li thinks of Li Lei’s birthday as the most important event. She will have a big birthday party for her son. Li Lei gradually realizes that becoming an adult means learning how to be independent and responsible.
Every moment to record a meaningful event brings a sense of ceremony and makes our lives colourful.
