Under the hydrogen-filled (充满氢气的) balloon, a spaceship is large enough for eight travellers to stand and walk freely in it. Inside the ship are comfortable seats, free Wi-Fi and even a party. Although the balloon won’t really fly into space, this won’t be a problem for the travelers. At 20 miles over Earth, they will experience 360° view (视野) of Earth and stars. That makes them feel like they are in space. Tickets (票) are about $125,000 each. Space Neptune doesn’t give out CO₂. We know CO₂ always results in hotter temperatures on Earth. The spaceship will also get its hydrogen from something renewable. That means we can use it again and again. This is why this kind of space travel is friendly to Earth. The great news is that people don’t need special training (训练) for this ride. But the bad news is that you can’t try it this year, because the first year’s tickets sold out already. Although the tickets are at a high price and the wait is long, remember: trips like this make us know how amazing our world can be. 61. How does the writer start the text? A. By asking a question. B.

It means home and family in Chinese. Then do you know about its story? In the Chinese character “家”, “宀” means “house” and “豕” means“pig”. Why is the pig in the house? Well, “家” comes from Jiaguwen. In ancient China, people liked to keep pigs at home, so “a house with pigs” meant “home” at that time. There are some old sayings about “家”. For example, “There’s no place like home. ” “East or west, home is best. ” Both of them tell us that home is the best place for everyone. Xu Li is a 13-year-old girl from Beijing. She says, “When I meet difficulties, I always go back home and talk with my parents or my sisters. They are always ready to listen to me. For me, a home is a place full of love and happiness. ” Wang Junjie is a 28-year-old man from Hunan. He works in a big city, so he can’t see his family in the countryside often. The best thing for him is to go back home to see his family during holidays. “Home is where people’s roots (根) are. I think it’s warm and comfortable to be at home,” he says. For most people, home is where life begins and love never ends. So what does home mean to you? 根据短文内容，回答下列问题： 66. Why did “a house with pigs” mean “home” in ancient China? _______________________________________________________________ 67. What do the two sayings in Paragraph 3 tell us? _______________________________________________________________ 68. What does Xu Li always do when she meets difficulties? _______________________________________________________________ 69. What is the best thing for Wang Junjie? _______________________________________________________________ 70.

To me, home means warmth and safety. It is a place where I can relax and share my happiness and worries with my family./ Home is where life begins and love never ends./ ... 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了汉字“家”的起源和含义，引用了关于家的俗语，并通过不同人的故事阐述了家对每个人的重要意义。 【66题详解】 第二段指出：“In ancient China, people liked to keep pigs at home, so ‘a house with pigs’ meant ‘home’ at that time.”，根据原文信息作答即可。 【67题详解】 第三段指出：“Both of them tell us that home is the best place for everyone.”，根据原文信息作答即可。 【68题详解】 第四段指出：“When I meet difficulties, I always go back home and talk with my parents or my sisters.”，答案是原文直接信息。 【69题详解】 第四段指出：“The best thing for him is to go back home to see his family during holidays.”，答案是原文直接信息。 【70题详解】 本题是开放性试题，答案不唯一，但观点需基于文中事实。结合文章最后一句“For most people, home is where life begins and love never ends.”以及自己对“家”的看法、理由，合理作答即可。 Ⅸ 情景交际 (共5小题，每题1分，满分5分) (David is talking about his holiday with Sarah. ) A: Hi, Sarah!

C Starting from Kennedy Space Center, the spaceship will take six hours—two hours travelling up, two hours staying and enjoying the sights and two hours travelling back. Under the hydrogen-filled (充满氢气的) balloon, a spaceship is large enough for eight travellers to stand and walk freely in it. Inside the ship are comfortable seats, free Wi-Fi and even a party. Although the balloon won’t really fly into space, this won’t be a problem for the travelers. At 20 miles over Earth, they will experience 360° view (视野) of Earth and stars. That makes them feel like they are in space. Tickets (票) are about $125,000 each. Space Neptune doesn’t give out CO₂. We know CO₂ always results in hotter temperatures on Earth. The spaceship will also get its hydrogen from something renewable. That means we can use it again and again. This is why this kind of space travel is friendly to Earth. The great news is that people don’t need special training (训练) for this ride. But the bad news is that you can’t try it this year, because the first year’s tickets sold out already. Although the tickets are at a high price and the wait is long, remember: trips like this make us know how amazing our world can be. 61. How does the writer start the text? A. By asking a question. B.

VIII 阅读表达 (共5小题，每题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文并简略回答问题。 All of us know the Chinese character (汉字) “家”. It means home and family in Chinese. Then do you know about its story? In the Chinese character “家”, “宀” means “house” and “豕” means“pig”. Why is the pig in the house? Well, “家” comes from Jiaguwen. In ancient China, people liked to keep pigs at home, so “a house with pigs” meant “home” at that time. There are some old sayings about “家”. For example, “There’s no place like home. ” “East or west, home is best. ” Both of them tell us that home is the best place for everyone. Xu Li is a 13-year-old girl from Beijing. She says, “When I meet difficulties, I always go back home and talk with my parents or my sisters. They are always ready to listen to me. For me, a home is a place full of love and happiness. ” Wang Junjie is a 28-year-old man from Hunan. He works in a big city, so he can’t see his family in the countryside often. The best thing for him is to go back home to see his family during holidays. “Home is where people’s roots (根) are. I think it’s warm and comfortable to be at home,” he says. For most people, home is where life begins and love never ends. So what does home mean to you? 根据短文内容，回答下列问题： 66.
