But can you explain why? Some people think kindness is something out of love and care, while others believe it is just a tool that we use to become more popular. But research shows that being kind can activate（激活）an area of the brain called Striaturn. Research also shows that kindness improves people’s mood（情绪）. But why and how does it happen? Here are a number of different ways. Being kind can make someone smile. If you see yourself smile in a situation, people around you may be smiling, too. This is especially true for your close friends and family. A kind act makes someone who is sad feel better. It can also make ourselves feel good. So why not set off that chain（链条）of good feelings to people around? Secondly, being kind starts or develops a social connection with others. Kid acts like buying someone a present make friendships stronger. Research has shown that spending money on others may help you get a stronger feeling of happiness than spending it on yourself. Similarly, charities（慈善） also open up new circles of people to connect with someone on the other side of the world. In another recent research, even children in their first year of secondary school know how being kind makes them feel happy. If one person is kind, he or she makes others in the group kind. It also lifts everyone’s spirits. Imagine that you make cakes for the office and it makes others do it each month. Then you’re getting cakes a lot more days than providing them. The story doesn’t end here. Being kind may improve your mood, but research has also shown that if you’re in a good mood, you can act much more kindly. This makes it a wonderful two-way relationship. doesn’t it? 4. The writer lends in the topic by ________. A. telling a story B. asking questions C. giving examples D. making a survey 5. The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 refers to ________. A. The situation B. The family C. The kind act D. That chain 6. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 7. If you were an editor（编辑）, you’d put the above passage in “________” of a newspaper. A. Science B. Wealth C. Invention D. Culture 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文，向我们介绍研究表明善良的几个好处。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据“But why and how does it happen?”可知，作者通过提问来引出这个话题。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。分析“A kind act makes someone who is sad feel better. It can also make ourselves feel good.”可知，善良的行为会让悲伤的人感觉好一些，它也能让我们感觉良好。此处it指的是“善良的行为”。故选C。 【6题详解】 篇章结构题。第一段设问，引出文章主题；第二、三、四、五段分别介绍善良让人微笑、善良让开始或发展与他人的社会联系、善良提升每个人的精神以及善良可能会改善你的情绪。全文是总分结构，故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。本文是一篇说明文，向我们介绍研究表明善良可以改善人们的情绪。所以推测应该在“科学”版块，故选A。 C Why is it that the people you meet when backpacking (背包旅行) seem to be more interesting and outgoing than your friends at home? That’s my experience, anyway. Very often, you’ll meet people that are fun to travel with and worth getting to know. I’ve spent time with people of many countries and have found out some interesting things about their cultures. It’s a great way to learn more about the world. It’s often easy to make new friends while you’re traveling, and you’ll be able to hang around with them for a few days, until one of you leaves for the next exciting place. Relationships of this kind are shorter but can be just as strong as friendships back home, because you do so much together in that short time. I often find I like to share things about myself that I’d never say to my close friends. It is safe, I think, because we probably won’t meet again, except online. One thing that’s important when you’re backpacking is to make sure you carry only basic needs, so your backpack isn’t too heavy. I travel “light” these days. One good tip someone gave me is to take old clothes and just throw them away when you move on, instead of washing and waiting for things to dry. Many hotels don’t provide shampoo and shower gel. You can get mini bottles in supermarkets. I’ve discovered that many backpackers visit places that other tourists don’t go to, and by using local shops and guest houses, they help those places with much-needed financial (经济上的) support. Most small guest houses allow you to stay for unlimited time, so you can spend as long as you like exploring the local area. Backpackers are also kinder to the environment, because they use trains and buses rather than cars. So, what are you waiting for? 8. According to the writer, friendships made with other backpackers ________. A. are less serious than those with his friends at home B. end at the moment they separate (分开) from each other C. help him to decide where he would like to travel to D. allow him to talk about himself in an honest way 9. Which text message would the writer send to a friend? A. “Why don’t you fly out to visit me? We’ll stay in a famous hotel on the coast.” B. “I’m leaving here tomorrow and then I will drive a car along the coast.” C. “I’ve met some great people. Tomorrow we’re going by boat to an ancient village in the mountains together.” D. “I’m glad I filled up my backpack—I’ve got everything I need, though it isn’t easy to carry it around!” 10. How to travel “light” according to the writer? A. Take old clothes and just throw them away when you move on. B. Wash and wait for your clothes to dry in the hotel. C. Take mini bottles of shampoo and shower gel with you. D. Buy new clothes from the supermarket. 11. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Friendships on the Way B. Traveling with a Backpack C. A Backpacking Experience D. Tips on Travel 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要探讨了背包旅行途中建立的友谊、轻装旅行的技巧以及对当地环境和经济的影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“I often find I like to share things about myself that I’d never say to my close friends.”可知，与其他背包客建立的友谊让作者能够诚实地谈论自己。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“meet people that are fun to travel with”和第四段“visit places that other tourists don’t go to”可推知，作者会遇见很棒的人并去小众地方，且文中提到“use trains and buses rather than cars”，选项C符合文意。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“One good tip someone gave me is to take old clothes and just throw them away when you move on”可知，轻装旅行的方法是带上旧衣服并在离开时扔掉。 【11题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文，文章围绕“backpacking”展开，结合第一段“Why is it that the people you meet when backpacking…”及全文内容可推知“Traveling with a Backpack”最能概括全文主题。 D When my son was 11 years old, he got a small job helping out with a traveling carnival (嘉年华) in our town. He didn’t come home at lunch time, phoning instead to tell me he was fine and had found a few days’ work helping out at a show. He turned up for supper as usual however after he finished work. I asked him how he had managed at lunch and he told me he had made some new friends at the carnival, some young men who were twin brothers, and their mom and dad. They had paid him a few dollars and invited him for lunch in return for helping them set up their show and wanted him to return the next day to help with other chores. I was glad he had found new friends but a little worried about the type of people who might be traveling in a carnival. “Oh, Mom, these are just normal everyday people like anyone else. They just work at a carnival instead of in a store or something”. “Come down tomorrow and meet them yourself,” he said. So the next day I went to the carnival and to the show he had directed me to. The twin brothers turned out to be Siamese (连体的) twins, joined at the chest. He hadn’t thought this fact was noteworthy (值得注意的) enough to mention. When I brought it to him, he said, “Yes, I noticed that too. Do you know that their mom has to make all their clothes because it’s so difficult to find anything to fit them? They’re also really good cooks. Today, Joe, the one on the right, made me noodles for lunch.” What others see first in a person is not what a child considers important. Where I saw Siamese twins, he saw people having difficulty buying clothes that fit, and young men who were good cooks. It was a lesson I have thought about many times over the years. 12. The twin brothers and their parents wanted the writer’s son to return the next day mostly because ________. A. they were pleased with his work B. they needed a worker asking little money C. they wanted to treat him to lunch D. they wanted him to make friends with the twins 13. The author was worried about the new friends her son made because ________. A. she feared the people at the carnival were not friendly to her son B. her son could easily believe in strangers C. she thought people traveling in a carnival were not so reliable (可信赖的) D. the carnival was not a place for children 14. In the boy’s eyes, the Siamese twins were ________. A. people who had no suitable clothes to wear B. good cooks with strange appearance C. more friendly and kinder than normal people D. just normal people 15. Which proverb may the author agree with according to the last paragraph? A. A friend in need is a friend indeed. B. It’s never too late to learn. C. Love me, love my dog. D. It is a matter of opinion. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者的儿子在嘉年华结交了连体双胞胎朋友，作者起初担心嘉年华里的人不可靠，但后来发现儿子只把他们当作普通人看待，从而学到了看待他人不应只看外表的道理。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。文章第2段“They had paid him a few dollars and invited him for lunch in return for helping them set up their show and wanted him to return the next day to help with other chores.”表明他们对男孩的工作很满意，所以想让他第二天再来帮忙。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。文章第3段“I was glad he had found new friends but a little worried about the type of people who might be traveling in a carnival.”表明作者担心这些四处巡演的嘉年华人员不太可靠。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。文章第3段“Oh, Mom, these are just normal everyday people like anyone else.”表明在男孩眼里，连体双胞胎只是普通人。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。文章第5段“What others see first in a person is not what a child considers important.”表明看待同一个人，成人和孩子的关注点完全不同，即“看法是主观的、见仁见智的”，与谚语“It is a matter of opinion”一致。 第二节 任务型阅读 (共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面材料，从下面所给的A—E五个选项中选出正确选项 (其中有一个是多余项)，将其序号填入第1-4小题，并回答第5小题。 More and more young people in China are turning to guzi.

For example 39. widely 40. easier 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了拉链这项改变世界的伟大发明，阐述了其在日常生活中的广泛应用，并回顾了拉链从早期因难以操作而未被广泛接受，到经过工艺改进变得更加便捷省力从而风靡全球的演变历程。 【36题详解】 句意：我认为拉链是世界上最伟大的发明之一。拉链属于发明物；根据固定句型“one of the+形容词最高级+可数名词复数”表示“最……的……之一”可知，形容词greatest后需接名词复数，动词invent对应的名词形式为invention，意为“发明”，需变为复数形式inventions。 【37题详解】 句意：你绝猜不到它在我们的日常生活中被使用的频率有多高。此处需要一个动词短语，在宾语从句中作谓语。根据从句主语“it”（指代拉链）与动词use之间的被动关系，结合时间状语“in our daily life”陈述日常普遍事实可知，此处需用一般现在时的被动语态“am/is/are+过去分词”，主语it为第三人称单数，be动词用is，动词use的过去分词为used。 【38题详解】 句意：例如，人们在包、衣服、鞋子和许多其他日常用品上使用拉链。此处需要一个介词短语，在句首作状语。根据后文列举的“bags, clothes, shoes and many other everyday items”具体物品可知，此处承接前文日常使用情况并进行举例说明，固定短语for example意为“例如”，位于句首首字母需大写。 【39题详解】 句意：起初，人们并没有广泛使用拉链。此处需要一个副词，在句中作状语修饰动词use。根据后句“They were hard to operate, so many people stuck to traditional buttons”可知，由于拉链最初难以操作，人们仍沿用传统纽扣，说明拉链起初并未被“广泛地”使用，形容词wide意为“广泛的”，其对应的副词形式为widely，意为“广泛地”。 【40题详解】 句意：后来，一家公司使拉链更容易、更快速地系牢。根据并列连词and连接的比较级“faster”以及“made the zipper...”可知，此处是“make+宾语+形容词比较级”结构，形容词easy需用比较级形式与faster保持对称，变y为i再加-er，即easier，意为“更容易的”。 B. 阅读下面短文，根据括号内所给汉语注释写出单词的正确形式。(每空一词) Chinese buyers used to prize foreign brands, thinking that ____41____ (产品) made by American or ____42____ (加拿大的) companies are of higher quality than Chinese ones. They looked up to those who can travel abroad and buy what they like. Increasingly, that’s no longer the case. The change in thinking among Chinese buyers is showing up in many markets in China. A study found that young Chinese buyers are increasingly showing a “home brand bias (偏好)”. More than 90% of young Chinese buyers would like to buy homemade brands because of the better ____43____ (材料) and designs. Meanwhile, ____44____ (本地的) companies producing food, drinks, or handbags have increased their share of the market. The Chinese smartphone market is controlled by national ____45____ (先驱)—HUAWEI, OPPO, Vivo, and Xiaomi. With the ____46____ (贸易) growing, the ____47____ (可移动的) phones have entered ____48____ (国际的) markets. They are now being widely received by many foreign ____49____ (顾客). We have every reason to believe that “Made in China” will be the ____50____ (骄傲) of our country. 【答案】41. products 42. Canadian 43. materials 44. local 45. pioneers 46. trade 47. mobile 48. international 49. customers 50. pride 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍过去中国消费者偏爱外国品牌，而如今观念发生转变，年轻人更青睐国产品牌；国产企业不断壮大，国产手机走向国际市场，中国制造成为国家的骄傲。 【41题详解】 句意：中国买家曾经推崇外国品牌，认为美国或加拿大公司生产的产品，质量比国产的更好。根据汉语提示，product“产品”，此处需用复数形式products表示泛指。 【42题详解】 句意：中国买家曾经推崇外国品牌，认为美国或加拿大公司生产的产品，质量比国产的更好。根据汉语提示，Canadian“加拿大的”，形容词作定语，与“American”保持形式一致。 【43题详解】 句意：超过90%的中国年轻消费者愿意购买国产品牌，因为更好的材料与设计。根据汉语提示，material“材料”，此处用复数materials表各类材料。 【44题详解】 句意：与此同时，生产食品、饮品或手袋的本地企业提高了市场占有率。根据汉语提示，local“当地的”，形容词修饰“companies”。 【45题详解】 句意：中国智能手机市场由本土先驱品牌掌控——华为、OPPO、vivo、小米。根据汉语提示，pioneer“先驱”，后文列举多个品牌，需用复数形式pioneers。 【46题详解】 句意：随着贸易发展，移动手机进入国际市场。根据汉语提示，trade“贸易”，不可数名词。 【47题详解】 句意：随着贸易发展，移动手机进入国际市场。根据汉语提示，mobile“可移动的”，mobile phone“手机”。 【48题详解】 句意：随着贸易发展，移动手机进入国际市场。根据汉语提示，international“国际的”，形容词作定语，修饰“markets”。 【49题详解】 句意：它们如今广受海外顾客的欢迎。根据汉语提示，customer“顾客”，many后面接复数，即customers。 【50题详解】 句意：我们完全有理由相信，“中国制造” 会成为我们国家的骄傲。根据汉语提示，pride“骄傲”，the后加名词。 第三节 语法填空 (共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的词，或填入括号中所给单词的正确形式。 For thousands of years, we have used animals such as horses to get from one place to another.

It would take us ____59____ we wanted to go and we’d get another one to go home. Because driverless electric cars can work 24 hours a day, we can use ____60____ (they) anytime even at midnight. 【答案】51. the 52. changed 53. to make 54. faster 55. has created 56. Scientists 57. on 58. finally 59. where 60. them 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了人类的交通方式最早是借助动物出行，但汽车发明后很快就改变了这一出行方式，而从汽油车转向无人驾驶电动汽车的速度将更快，并介绍了无人驾驶电动汽车的优点。 【51题详解】 句意：然后，在20世纪初，汽车的发明永远改变了我们的出行方式。根据“at the beginning of...20th century”可知，此处指20世纪初；某世纪用“the+序数词+century”来表示。 【52题详解】 句意：然后，在20世纪初，汽车的发明永远改变了我们的出行方式。根据“20th century”可知，句子描述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时，动词change应用过去式changed。 【53题详解】 句意：人们只用了几年时间就从动物转向了汽车，而从汽油车转向无人驾驶电动汽车的速度将更快。It takes some time for sb. to do sth.意为“某人花费多少时间做某事”，是固定句型，因此空处应填to make。 【54题详解】 句意：人们只用了几年时间就从动物转向了汽车，而从汽油车转向无人驾驶电动汽车的速度将更快。even修饰形容词的比较级，此处指汽油车转变为无人驾驶电动汽车的速度将更快，因此用fast的比较级faster。 【55题详解】 句意：自1970年起，交通造成了巨大的环境问题，所以世界上许多国家都在寻找解决方案。根据“Since 1970”可知，句子应用现在完成时，结构是“have/has+过去分词”；主语“traffic”为不可数名词，因此助动词用has；create的过去分词形式是created。 【56题详解】 句意：科学家们发明了以电力而非汽油驱动的无人驾驶汽车。空处在句中作主语，表示“科学家”，应用scientist，是可数名词；结合助动词“have”，应用scientist的复数形式scientists作主语。注意句首单词首字母大写。 【57题详解】 句意：科学家们发明了以电力而非汽油驱动的无人驾驶汽车。根据“electricity instead of petrol”，此处指靠电力驱动的汽车；run on是固定短语，意为“靠……驱动”，因此空处应填on。 【58题详解】 句意：如果我们把这些发明结合起来，我们最终就能摆脱交通拥堵。空处修饰动词“free”，应用final的副词形式finally，意为“最终”。 【59题详解】 句意：它会带我们去我们想去的地方，然后我们再换一辆回家。“...we wanted to go”是一个地点状语从句，指带到什么地方，空处在从句中作地点状语，因此应用where引导该从句。 【60题详解】 句意：由于无人驾驶电动汽车可以一天24小时工作，所以我们随时都可以使用它们，甚至是在午夜。空处作动词“use”的宾语，应用they的宾格形式them，意为“它们”，指代上文的“driverless electric cars”。 第四部分 书面表达 (共1小题，满分20分) 61. 假如你是李华，有一位美国交换生Jim要来你校学习生活。请你送他一件礼物，介绍礼物的相关信息（可以写名称，材质，功能或特点等）并介绍你校的两条校规。 要求： 1. 短文不得出现任何真实人名、校名及其他相关信息； 2. 80至100词。 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Dear Jim, Welcome to our school!

The Titanic left for France. Seven iceberg warnings (冰山警告) were received during the day. April 14th 11:40 PM Crew (船员) on the Titanic found the iceberg. The Titanic hit the iceberg 37 seconds later. The ship began to go down. Everyone was in horror. April 15th 12:00 AM Captain Smith gave orders to make radio calls for help. 12:05 AM Captain Smith ordered the crew to prepare the lifeboats. There were only 20 lifeboats on the Titanic. 12:45 AM The first lifeboat, Lifeboat 7, was put into use. Women and children were put into the lifeboats first. 2:05 AM The last lifeboat left, leaving more than 1,500 people on the ship. 2:20 AM The broken end of the Titanic went high into the air and then sank. Passengers and crew fell into the cold water. 4:10 AM The Carpathia picked up the first survivors (幸存者). 8:50 AM The Carpathia picked up survivors from the last lifeboat and headed for New York. April 18th The Carpathia arrived in New York. 1. What does the underlined phrase “in horror” mean? A. Busy. B. Tired. C. Careful. D. Afraid. 2. How long did it take to put all the lifeboats into use? A. 1 hour. B. 40 minutes. C. 80 minutes. D. 2 hours. 3. What is probably the Carpathia? A. A car. B. A ship. C. A person. D. A survivor. B Everybody enjoys acts of kindness. But can you explain why? Some people think kindness is something out of love and care, while others believe it is just a tool that we use to become more popular. But research shows that being kind can activate（激活）an area of the brain called Striaturn. Research also shows that kindness improves people’s mood（情绪）. But why and how does it happen? Here are a number of different ways. Being kind can make someone smile. If you see yourself smile in a situation, people around you may be smiling, too. This is especially true for your close friends and family. A kind act makes someone who is sad feel better. It can also make ourselves feel good. So why not set off that chain（链条）of good feelings to people around? Secondly, being kind starts or develops a social connection with others. Kid acts like buying someone a present make friendships stronger. Research has shown that spending money on others may help you get a stronger feeling of happiness than spending it on yourself. Similarly, charities（慈善） also open up new circles of people to connect with someone on the other side of the world. In another recent research, even children in their first year of secondary school know how being kind makes them feel happy. If one person is kind, he or she makes others in the group kind. It also lifts everyone’s spirits. Imagine that you make cakes for the office and it makes others do it each month. Then you’re getting cakes a lot more days than providing them. The story doesn’t end here. Being kind may improve your mood, but research has also shown that if you’re in a good mood, you can act much more kindly. This makes it a wonderful two-way relationship. doesn’t it? 4. The writer lends in the topic by ________. A. telling a story B. asking questions C. giving examples D. making a survey 5. The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 refers to ________. A. The situation B. The family C. The kind act D. That chain 6. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 7. If you were an editor（编辑）, you’d put the above passage in “________” of a newspaper. A. Science B. Wealth C. Invention D. Culture C Why is it that the people you meet when backpacking (背包旅行) seem to be more interesting and outgoing than your friends at home? That’s my experience, anyway. Very often, you’ll meet people that are fun to travel with and worth getting to know. I’ve spent time with people of many countries and have found out some interesting things about their cultures. It’s a great way to learn more about the world. It’s often easy to make new friends while you’re traveling, and you’ll be able to hang around with them for a few days, until one of you leaves for the next exciting place. Relationships of this kind are shorter but can be just as strong as friendships back home, because you do so much together in that short time. I often find I like to share things about myself that I’d never say to my close friends. It is safe, I think, because we probably won’t meet again, except online. One thing that’s important when you’re backpacking is to make sure you carry only basic needs, so your backpack isn’t too heavy. I travel “light” these days. One good tip someone gave me is to take old clothes and just throw them away when you move on, instead of washing and waiting for things to dry. Many hotels don’t provide shampoo and shower gel. You can get mini bottles in supermarkets. I’ve discovered that many backpackers visit places that other tourists don’t go to, and by using local shops and guest houses, they help those places with much-needed financial (经济上的) support. Most small guest houses allow you to stay for unlimited time, so you can spend as long as you like exploring the local area. Backpackers are also kinder to the environment, because they use trains and buses rather than cars. So, what are you waiting for? 8. According to the writer, friendships made with other backpackers ________. A. are less serious than those with his friends at home B. end at the moment they separate (分开) from each other C. help him to decide where he would like to travel to D. allow him to talk about himself in an honest way 9. Which text message would the writer send to a friend? A. “Why don’t you fly out to visit me? We’ll stay in a famous hotel on the coast.” B. “I’m leaving here tomorrow and then I will drive a car along the coast.” C. “I’ve met some great people. Tomorrow we’re going by boat to an ancient village in the mountains together.” D. “I’m glad I filled up my backpack—I’ve got everything I need, though it isn’t easy to carry it around!” 10. How to travel “light” according to the writer? A. Take old clothes and just throw them away when you move on. B. Wash and wait for your clothes to dry in the hotel. C. Take mini bottles of shampoo and shower gel with you. D. Buy new clothes from the supermarket. 11. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Friendships on the Way B. Traveling with a Backpack C. A Backpacking Experience D. Tips on Travel D When my son was 11 years old, he got a small job helping out with a traveling carnival (嘉年华) in our town. He didn’t come home at lunch time, phoning instead to tell me he was fine and had found a few days’ work helping out at a show. He turned up for supper as usual however after he finished work. I asked him how he had managed at lunch and he told me he had made some new friends at the carnival, some young men who were twin brothers, and their mom and dad. They had paid him a few dollars and invited him for lunch in return for helping them set up their show and wanted him to return the next day to help with other chores. I was glad he had found new friends but a little worried about the type of people who might be traveling in a carnival. “Oh, Mom, these are just normal everyday people like anyone else. They just work at a carnival instead of in a store or something”. “Come down tomorrow and meet them yourself,” he said. So the next day I went to the carnival and to the show he had directed me to. The twin brothers turned out to be Siamese (连体的) twins, joined at the chest. He hadn’t thought this fact was noteworthy (值得注意的) enough to mention. When I brought it to him, he said, “Yes, I noticed that too. Do you know that their mom has to make all their clothes because it’s so difficult to find anything to fit them? They’re also really good cooks. Today, Joe, the one on the right, made me noodles for lunch.” What others see first in a person is not what a child considers important. Where I saw Siamese twins, he saw people having difficulty buying clothes that fit, and young men who were good cooks. It was a lesson I have thought about many times over the years. 12. The twin brothers and their parents wanted the writer’s son to return the next day mostly because ________. A. they were pleased with his work B. they needed a worker asking little money C. they wanted to treat him to lunch D. they wanted him to make friends with the twins 13. The author was worried about the new friends her son made because ________. A. she feared the people at the carnival were not friendly to her son B. her son could easily believe in strangers C. she thought people traveling in a carnival were not so reliable (可信赖的) D. the carnival was not a place for children 14. In the boy’s eyes, the Siamese twins were ________. A. people who had no suitable clothes to wear B. good cooks with strange appearance C. more friendly and kinder than normal people D. just normal people 15. Which proverb may the author agree with according to the last paragraph? A. A friend in need is a friend indeed. B. It’s never too late to learn. C. Love me, love my dog. D. It is a matter of opinion. 第二节 任务型阅读 (共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面材料，从下面所给的A—E五个选项中选出正确选项 (其中有一个是多余项)，将其序号填入第1-4小题，并回答第5小题。 More and more young people in China are turning to guzi.
