Let me introduce them to you! Charlotte’s Web The story is about a little girl named Fern. With the help of a friendly spider, she saved her pig Wilbur from the usual fate of nice fat little pigs. In this story of friendship and hardship, the writer reminds readers to open their eyes to the wonders and miracles found in the simplest things.

Ideal for self-study, its easy-to-use format presents content or grammar-based vocabulary on the left-hand page and practice activities on the right-hand page. An edition without answers, suitable for classroom use, is available. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time Christopher John Francis Boone knows all the countries of the world and their capitals. He relates well to animals but has no understanding of human feelings. He cannot stand being touched. And he dislikes the color yellow. One day, a neighbor’s dog, Wellington, is killed and Christopher sets out to solve the murder in the style of his favorite detective, Sherlock Holmes. The Secret Life of Bees Set in South Carolina in 1964, The Secret Life of Bees tells the story of Lily Owens, whose life has been shaped around the blurred (模糊不清的) memory of the afternoon when her mother was killed. This is a remarkable novel about female power, a story that women will share and pass on to their daughters for years to come. 1. What’s the main topic of the book Charlotte’s Web? A. Animals’ life.  B. Friendship and hardship. C. Peace.  D. Growth. 2. What’s special about The Secret Life of Bees? A. It’s a science book.  B. It’s full of fairy tales. C. It’s about human nature.  D. It’s about women’s strength. 3. Which book is suitable for classroom use? A. Charlotte’s Web. B. The Secret Life of Bees. C. Vocabulary in Use Intermediate. D. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. I sat at one end of my couch with my dinner for one: toast with a bit of cheese. The sound of each bite — had I always chewed so loudly? — seemed to echo (回响) around my new apartment. I looked at my phone. Nearly 8 p.m. I’d had a long day at my new job. I’d been looking forward to returning to my old home. Now that I was here, though, I didn’t know what I should do. Play music? Watch TV? There was so much silence. My friends and I had been roommates for nearly a decade in New York City. It had been two months since the three of us had gone our separate ways. Sure, we’d argued over whose turn it was to do the dishes and take out the trash. But there was nothing like coming home from work, and two people asking, “How was your day?” Things changed after Kristin got married. At first, she and her husband, Ciaran, lived in the apartment with us. When our lease (租约) ended, they moved out. By then, Priscilla was getting married, too. Our lives were clearly going in different directions. Priscilla lived more than an hour away in New Jersey. Kristin was a subway ride away, not close enough for me to stop by. And they were busy with their own lives. I didn’t want to bother them. Priscilla and her husband were looking for a house. Kristin and Ciaran were expecting a baby. And me? I was experiencing empty-nest syndrome...in my thirties. How hard could it be living alone? I was so used to being one of them. When I talked about what I was doing, I always said “we” and “our”, as if I were part of some secret government unit. Now, even when I was out with friends, my stories fell flat. Without Kristin and Priscilla, I felt lost. And no one wanted to hear about how much I missed them. 4. How did the author feel according to the first paragraph? A. Lonely.  B. Excited.  C. Angry.  D. Satisfied. 5. Why did the author and her friends separate? A. They had changed their jobs. B. The author wanted to live alone. C. Her friends got married one by one. D. They often quarreled with each other.  6. What is the difficulty for the author? A. Adapting to the new life.  B. Making some new friends. C. Finding someone to marry.  D. Visiting her friends’ new houses. 7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To remind her friends not to forget her. B. To introduce the new lives of her friends. C. To criticize her friends for not contacting her. D. To express how much she misses her friends. It’s almost always a given: Airplanes are, for the most part, white. It’s like something we just take for granted, like the color of the clouds. We see white planes in the sky every day, and it never crosses our minds to question this norm. It’s as natural as the sunrise each morning, blending into our daily views. But the color choice has some very sound logic behind it. Reader’s Digest spoke to dozens of airline experts to get to the bottom of it. According to the experts, there are two main reasons for the color choice. The main reason why airplanes are generally white is to keep the plane cool. Steve Deane of Stratos Jet Charters said, “Imagine waiting for take-off in a dark-colored plane. It would get extremely uncomfortable for the passengers. Then a cooler plane means the equipment will last longer, thus saving money for the airline.” Of course, while this technique does help airplanes last longer, airplanes will eventually have to “retire” — and here’s what happens to them when they do. Former flight attendant Philip Weiss added that the color is actually keeping you safe: “White helps make cracks and damage more visible for the technicians, so it also makes their jobs much easier.” That color has an additional benefit. Deane added that a white plane is far easier to find in the event of a crash landing, whether on land or at sea. “White reflects the sun, so it will appear brighter and will be easily spotted in the unfortunate event of an accident.” Additionally, a study published in Human-Wildlife Interactions found that the paint job does make a difference to birds: “This finding suggests that a white plane would stand out more against the sky from the view of the birds’ visual system.”  8. According to the text, what can we know about a white plane? A. It retires earlier.  B. It can save money. C. It looks more beautiful.  D. It makes people uncomfortable. 9. How does the color white make airplanes safer? A. By blending into the scenery. B. By keeping the airplanes cold. C. By making cracks and damage more visible. D. By helping the technicians do their jobs more efficiently. 10. Which of the following is a reason for the plane’s white design? A. White is easier to see.  B. White can calm passengers. C. White scares the birds away.  D. White things are easier to repair. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. The life of retired planes B. Secrets behind flight safety C. The science behind white planes D. How plane color affects bird strikes D “My favorite thing about hiking is that I get to work out my legs,” said Skylar, a six-year-old camper. “And I get to see the view!” Skylar is one of the 20 kids taking part in the week-long Gross Out Camp, a summer program hosted at parks and outdoor spaces across Alabama. “This is kids’ natural habitat out here in the woods,” said Verna Gates, who started Gross Out Camp years ago. As schools begin again across Alabama, most students are returning to indoor classrooms, but some will continue to learn and play outside, even while at school — a forest school. It’s part of a growing movement to teach kids about nature and help them connect with their environment. In recent years, at least three nature preschools, or forest schools, have opened across Alabama. They operate almost entirely outside. “It seems like a very foreign concept (概念), especially when we first described it to people,” said Sarah Crim, director of the Woodland Wonders Nature Preschool in Auburn. “But it’s great and it works.” In this forest school, students learn knowledge from every activity. The class might discover a turtle walking along the forest floor at the Kreher Preserve & Nature Center, where the school is located. That presents an opportunity for students to talk about the animal’s shape and color, and write about their discovery. After starting Woodland Wonders Nature Preschool in 2019, Crim said word spread quickly. The school has since added classes and programs for older kids, but they can’t keep up with demand. It’s a similar case at Little Mountain Forest School in Huntsville, where kids learn and play at Monte Sano State Park. Co-founder and co-director Beth Barry said that both kids and parents love the natural space. Another co-founder and co-director Sarah Callaway said the most common question is about the weather. They spend a lot of time reviewing proper clothing, because the weather in the forest changes frequently. “As a forest school parent, it can be a pain in the behind to have to deal with your muddy and wet kids,” Callaway said. “But the kids love it. Those are some of the best days.” 12. What is the main focus of the forest school in Alabama? A. Advocating a connection with wild animals. B. Offering programs to teenagers in the natural space. C. Teaching kids about the weather and proper clothing. D. Providing opportunities for outdoor play and learning. 13. What is the attitude of parents to Woodland Wonders Nature Preschool? A. Tolerant.  B. Doubtful. C. Supportive.  D. Cautious. 14. What does the underlined word “They” refer to in the last paragraph? A. Students.  B. Parents. C. The school staff.  D. Weather reporters. 15. What does Sarah think is the challenge for parents of forest school students? A. Dealing with dirty kids. B. Finding cars to get to the school.  C. Discovering a turtle for students to learn.  D. Ensuring children complete their homework. 第二节　(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Common mistakes new runners make Running is a great way to get in shape and everyone can do it.

He failed many times — though he was a bit upset, he didn’t give up hope.  One day he received a phone call, telling him about an opening for a graphic artist at a company in Manchester and asking him to attend the interview on Friday. Hearing this, Jack was really excited. He spent a large amount of time making preparations, including brushing up on his graphic skills and carrying out research on the company online, and finally booked a coach ticket to Manchester. On Thursday afternoon, Jack boarded the coach. The passenger next to him was a young man. They had a delightful conversation, and Jack discovered that his fellow passenger, named John, was also a graphic artist living in the city. Upon reaching their destination, they stayed in the same hotel and continued their lively discussion late into the night. Their topics were related to their major and interests. Generally, they had a lot in common, and naturally, they became friends. Most importantly, John gave him a lot of advice on his interview. Jack was impressed by John’s professional knowledge. The next day, they exchanged phone numbers before they parted. To Jack’s surprise, he came across John at the company. John greeted him with a smile and said, “I didn’t want the thought of competing against you to ruin our trip because they need only one graphic artist. Therefore, I didn’t mention that I would come for an interview at the company, or else, we couldn't have had enjoyable chats.” He continued, “Anyway, I wish you good luck today.” What John said touched Jack deeply. “Thank you, John! All the best!” said Jack.

When I talked about what I was doing, I always said “we” and “our”, as if I were part of some secret government unit. Now, even when I was out with friends, my stories fell flat. Without Kristin and Priscilla, I felt lost. And no one wanted to hear about how much I missed them. 4. How did the author feel according to the first paragraph? A. Lonely.  B. Excited.  C. Angry.  D. Satisfied. 5. Why did the author and her friends separate? A. They had changed their jobs. B. The author wanted to live alone. C. Her friends got married one by one. D. They often quarreled with each other.  6. What is the difficulty for the author? A. Adapting to the new life.  B. Making some new friends. C. Finding someone to marry.  D. Visiting her friends’ new houses. 7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To remind her friends not to forget her. B. To introduce the new lives of her friends. C. To criticize her friends for not contacting her. D. To express how much she misses her friends. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】文章讲述了作者和相伴近十年的室友因她们相继结婚分开独居，寂静的新居让她难以适应，她习惯了和好友相伴的日子，内心十分怀念昔日和室友一起生活的时光。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I sat at one end of my couch with my dinner for one: toast with a bit of cheese. The sound of each bite — had I always chewed so loudly? — seemed to echo (回响) around my new apartment. I looked at my phone. Nearly 8 p.m. I’d had a long day at my new job. I’d been looking forward to returning to my old home. Now that I was here, though, I didn’t know what I should do. Play music? Watch TV? There was so much silence.(我坐在沙发一端，独自吃着晚餐：抹了一点奶酪的吐司。每一口咀嚼的声音 —— 我以前咀嚼一直这么大声吗？—— 仿佛在我的新公寓里回荡。我看了眼手机，快晚上八点了。新工作让我疲惫了一整天。我原本盼着回到旧家，可真到了这里，却不知道该做些什么。放点音乐？看看电视？四周一片寂静)”可知，作者内心感到孤单。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Things changed after Kristin got married. At first, she and her husband, Ciaran, lived in the apartment with us. When our lease (租约) ended, they moved out. By then, Priscilla was getting married, too.(克里斯汀结婚之后，一切都变了。一开始她和丈夫西亚兰还和我们同住这套公寓。租约到期后，他们搬了出去。而那时，普丽西拉也准备结婚了)”可知，作者和朋友们分开是因为朋友们相继结婚。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“How hard could it be living alone? I was so used to being one of them. When I talked about what I was doing, I always said “we” and “our”, as if I were part of some secret government unit. Now, even when I was out with friends, my stories fell flat. Without Kristin and Priscilla, I felt lost.(独自生活能有多难？我早已习惯和她们相伴。过去说起自己的事，我总习惯用‘我们’，仿佛我们是一个密不可分的集体。现在就算和别的朋友外出，我讲的事也索然无味。离开了克里斯汀和普丽西拉，我茫然无措)”可知，作者的难处是适应独自生活的新生活。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文，尤其是第四段“Without Kristin and Priscilla, I felt lost. And no one wanted to hear about how much I missed them.(离开了克里斯汀和普丽西拉，我茫然无措，也没人愿意听我说我有多想念她们)”可知，作者写这篇文章是为了抒发对室友好友的思念。 It’s almost always a given: Airplanes are, for the most part, white. It’s like something we just take for granted, like the color of the clouds. We see white planes in the sky every day, and it never crosses our minds to question this norm. It’s as natural as the sunrise each morning, blending into our daily views. But the color choice has some very sound logic behind it. Reader’s Digest spoke to dozens of airline experts to get to the bottom of it. According to the experts, there are two main reasons for the color choice. The main reason why airplanes are generally white is to keep the plane cool. Steve Deane of Stratos Jet Charters said, “Imagine waiting for take-off in a dark-colored plane. It would get extremely uncomfortable for the passengers. Then a cooler plane means the equipment will last longer, thus saving money for the airline.” Of course, while this technique does help airplanes last longer, airplanes will eventually have to “retire” — and here’s what happens to them when they do. Former flight attendant Philip Weiss added that the color is actually keeping you safe: “White helps make cracks and damage more visible for the technicians, so it also makes their jobs much easier.” That color has an additional benefit. Deane added that a white plane is far easier to find in the event of a crash landing, whether on land or at sea. “White reflects the sun, so it will appear brighter and will be easily spotted in the unfortunate event of an accident.” Additionally, a study published in Human-Wildlife Interactions found that the paint job does make a difference to birds: “This finding suggests that a white plane would stand out more against the sky from the view of the birds’ visual system.”  8. According to the text, what can we know about a white plane? A. It retires earlier.  B. It can save money. C. It looks more beautiful.  D. It makes people uncomfortable. 9. How does the color white make airplanes safer? A. By blending into the scenery. B. By keeping the airplanes cold. C. By making cracks and damage more visible. D. By helping the technicians do their jobs more efficiently. 10. Which of the following is a reason for the plane’s white design? A. White is easier to see.  B. White can calm passengers. C. White scares the birds away.  D. White things are easier to repair. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. The life of retired planes B. Secrets behind flight safety C. The science behind white planes D. How plane color affects bird strikes 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要从降温、安全和鸟类视觉等角度解释了飞机大多被涂成白色的科学原因。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The main reason why airplanes are generally white is to keep the plane cool.(飞机通常为白色的主要原因是保持机身凉爽。)”和“Then a cooler plane means the equipment will last longer, thus saving money for the airline.(更凉爽的飞机意味着设备使用寿命更长，从而为航空公司省钱。)”可知，白色可以保持机身凉爽，让飞机使用寿命更长，进而为航空公司省钱。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Former flight attendant Philip Weiss added that the color is actually keeping you safe: ‌“White helps make cracks and damage more visible for the technicians, so it also makes their jobs much easier.”(前乘务员菲利普·韦斯补充说，这种颜色实际上在保护你的安全：“白色有助于让技术人员更容易看到裂缝和损坏，所以也让他们的工作容易得多。”)”可知，白色通过让技术人员更容易发现裂缝和损坏来使飞机更安全。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Deane added that a white plane is far easier to find in the event of a crash landing, whether on land or at sea.(迪恩补充说，在发生坠机迫降时，无论是在陆地还是海上，白色飞机都更容易被发现。)”可知，飞机被设计成白色的原因之一是白色更容易被看到。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段中“It’s almost always a given: Airplanes are, for the most part, white.(这几乎总是既定事实：飞机大部分都是白色的。)”、第二段中“But the color choice has some very sound logic behind it.(但这种颜色选择背后有一些非常合理的逻辑。)”和第三段中“The main reason why airplanes are generally white is to keep the plane cool.(飞机通常是白色的主要原因是保持飞机凉爽。)”可知，全文主要解释大部分飞机是白色的科学原因，C项“The science behind white planes(白色飞机背后的科学)”能概括文章内容，最适合作文章标题。 D “My favorite thing about hiking is that I get to work out my legs,” said Skylar, a six-year-old camper. “And I get to see the view!” Skylar is one of the 20 kids taking part in the week-long Gross Out Camp, a summer program hosted at parks and outdoor spaces across Alabama. “This is kids’ natural habitat out here in the woods,” said Verna Gates, who started Gross Out Camp years ago. As schools begin again across Alabama, most students are returning to indoor classrooms, but some will continue to learn and play outside, even while at school — a forest school. It’s part of a growing movement to teach kids about nature and help them connect with their environment. In recent years, at least three nature preschools, or forest schools, have opened across Alabama. They operate almost entirely outside. “It seems like a very foreign concept (概念), especially when we first described it to people,” said Sarah Crim, director of the Woodland Wonders Nature Preschool in Auburn. “But it’s great and it works.” In this forest school, students learn knowledge from every activity. The class might discover a turtle walking along the forest floor at the Kreher Preserve & Nature Center, where the school is located. That presents an opportunity for students to talk about the animal’s shape and color, and write about their discovery. After starting Woodland Wonders Nature Preschool in 2019, Crim said word spread quickly. The school has since added classes and programs for older kids, but they can’t keep up with demand. It’s a similar case at Little Mountain Forest School in Huntsville, where kids learn and play at Monte Sano State Park. Co-founder and co-director Beth Barry said that both kids and parents love the natural space. Another co-founder and co-director Sarah Callaway said the most common question is about the weather. They spend a lot of time reviewing proper clothing, because the weather in the forest changes frequently. “As a forest school parent, it can be a pain in the behind to have to deal with your muddy and wet kids,” Callaway said. “But the kids love it. Those are some of the best days.” 12. What is the main focus of the forest school in Alabama? A. Advocating a connection with wild animals. B. Offering programs to teenagers in the natural space. C. Teaching kids about the weather and proper clothing. D. Providing opportunities for outdoor play and learning. 13. What is the attitude of parents to Woodland Wonders Nature Preschool? A. Tolerant.  B. Doubtful. C. Supportive.  D. Cautious. 14. What does the underlined word “They” refer to in the last paragraph? A. Students.  B. Parents. C. The school staff.  D. Weather reporters. 15. What does Sarah think is the challenge for parents of forest school students? A. Dealing with dirty kids. B. Finding cars to get to the school.  C. Discovering a turtle for students to learn.  D. Ensuring children complete their homework. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍美国阿拉巴马州兴起的森林学校，这类学校几乎全程在户外开展教学，让孩子在自然中学习体验，深受孩子和家长欢迎，但家长也要面对孩子弄得满身泥泞的麻烦。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“It’s part of a growing movement to teach kids about nature and help them connect with their environment.(这是一场日益壮大的运动的一部分，该运动旨在教孩子们认识自然，帮助他们与所处的环境建立联系)”以及第三段“They operate almost entirely outside.(它们几乎完全在户外开展教学)”可知，阿拉巴马州的森林学校重点是提供户外玩耍和学习的机会。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“After starting Woodland Wonders Nature Preschool in 2019, Crim said word spread quickly. The school has since added classes and programs for older kids, but they can’t keep up with demand.(克里姆说，2019 年创办林地奇观自然幼儿园后，消息很快传开。这所学校后来增设了适合大龄孩子的班级和课程，但仍然供不应求)”可知家长们是支持这所学校的。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段“Another co-founder and co-director Sarah Callaway said the most common question is about the weather. They spend a lot of time reviewing proper clothing, because the weather in the forest changes frequently.(另一位联合创始人兼联合主管萨拉·卡拉维说，最常被问到的问题是天气。他们花大量时间讲解合适的着装，因为森林里天气变化无常)”可知，是学校工作人员给孩子讲解着装要求，They 指代学校工作人员。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“As a forest school parent, it can be a pain in the behind to have to deal with your muddy and wet kids(作为森林学校学生的家长，要收拾浑身泥泞湿漉漉的孩子实在是件麻烦事)”可知，萨拉认为家长面临的难题是收拾脏兮兮的孩子。 第二节　(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Common mistakes new runners make Running is a great way to get in shape and everyone can do it. However, many make a number of common mistakes, which can interfere (妨碍) with training or lead to injury. So it’s important to have the necessary knowledge to prevent accidents. ____16____.  Doing too much too soon One of the biggest mistakes new runners make is doing too much too soon. Slowly easing into a training program will help reduce the risk of injury, so you can continue with your new running routine. ____17____.  ____18____ Beginners might think they need to run every day (or nearly every day) to meet their fitness or weight-loss goals, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Running is a high-impact activity which can be really hard on your body. So it’s important to give your body a rest between workouts. Not wearing the right equipment ____19____, but it’s important that you wear it properly for your workouts. The most important piece of equipment for running is a good pair of running shoes, so be sure to do some research before you purchase a pair. Visit a running specialty store and ask an employee to fit you for a shoe.   Running through pain ____20____. If something hurts when you run, you need to stop and treat the pain. Remember: It doesn’t make you less of a runner if you listen to your body to keep it healthy.  A. Not taking rest days B. Comparing yourself to others C. Running can be uncomfortable at times D. It’s important not to use the same muscles E. Keep these things in mind to increase your chances of running success F. It may be true that you don’t need expensive equipment to take up running G. Experts suggest increasing your running distance by less than 10% weekly 【答案】16. E 17. G 18. A 19. F 20. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了新手跑步者常犯的几种错误。 【16题详解】 由上文“Running is a great way to get in shape and everyone can do it. However, many make a number of common mistakes, which can interfere (妨碍) with training or lead to injury. So it’s important to have the necessary knowledge to prevent accidents.(跑步是很好的健身方式，人人都可以参与。但很多新手会犯一些常见错误，这些错误会干扰训练甚至造成受伤。所以掌握必备知识来预防意外很重要。)”结合下文介绍的几个需要避免的方面可知，空处起到承上启下的作用，引出下文的几条建议。E选项“Keep these things in mind to increase your chances of running success(牢记这些要点，能提高你跑步成功的概率)”符合语境，该选项中的“these things”指代上文“the necessary knowledge to prevent accidents”，引出下文列举的错误事项。 【17题详解】 由上文“Slowly easing into a training program will help reduce the risk of injury, so you can continue with your new running routine.(循序渐进地开始训练有助于降低受伤风险，让你可以坚持跑步计划。)”可知，这里讲合理增加运动量。G选项“Experts suggest increasing your running distance by less than 10% weekly(专家建议每周增加的跑步距离不超过10%)”是对上一句“循序渐进”的具体说明，该选项中的“increasing your running distance by less than 10% weekly”呼应上文“Slowly easing into a training program”，说明增量不能过快。 【18题详解】 由下文“Beginners might think they need to run every day (or nearly every day) to meet their fitness or weight-loss goals, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Running is a high-impact activity which can be really hard on your body. So it’s important to give your body a rest between workouts.(新手可能会认为，自己需要每天（或者几乎每天）跑步，才能实现健身或减重目标，但事实远非如此。跑步属于高冲击运动，会给身体带来不小负担。所以在两次训练之间，一定要让身体休息。)”可知，本段核心是跑步需要休息日。A选项“Not taking rest days(不安排休息日)”是需要避免的问题，符合本段主旨，该选项中“rest days”和下文“give your body a rest”形成呼应。 【19题详解】 由小标题“Not wearing the right equipment(没有穿戴合适装备)”以及下文“but it’s important that you wear it properly for your workouts.(但是训练时正确穿戴装备很重要。)”可知，空处与下文构成转折关系。F选项“It may be true that you don’t need expensive equipment to take up running(开始跑步确实不需要昂贵装备)”能与下文构成转折，符合题意，该选项中“equipment”与小标题的“equipment”相呼应、下文“wear it”呼应选项中的“equipment”。 【20题详解】 由小标题“Running through pain(忍痛坚持跑步)”以及下文“If something hurts when you run, you need to stop and treat the pain.(跑步时如果身体疼痛，你需要停下并处理疼痛。)”可知，本段围绕跑步中的疼痛展开。C选项“Running can be uncomfortable at times(跑步有时会让人不舒服)”能引出下文，该选项中的“uncomfortable”与小标题中的“pain”、下文的“hurts”构成呼应。 第三部分　语言运用(共两节,满分30分) 第一节　(共15分;每小题1分,满分15分) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 One day, a professor entered the classroom and asked his students to prepare for a surprise test.

He’d been searching for a suitable job for a long time. He failed many times — though he was a bit upset, he didn’t give up hope.  One day he received a phone call, telling him about an opening for a graphic artist at a company in Manchester and asking him to attend the interview on Friday. Hearing this, Jack was really excited. He spent a large amount of time making preparations, including brushing up on his graphic skills and carrying out research on the company online, and finally booked a coach ticket to Manchester. On Thursday afternoon, Jack boarded the coach. The passenger next to him was a young man. They had a delightful conversation, and Jack discovered that his fellow passenger, named John, was also a graphic artist living in the city. Upon reaching their destination, they stayed in the same hotel and continued their lively discussion late into the night. Their topics were related to their major and interests. Generally, they had a lot in common, and naturally, they became friends. Most importantly, John gave him a lot of advice on his interview. Jack was impressed by John’s professional knowledge. The next day, they exchanged phone numbers before they parted. To Jack’s surprise, he came across John at the company. John greeted him with a smile and said, “I didn’t want the thought of competing against you to ruin our trip because they need only one graphic artist. Therefore, I didn’t mention that I would come for an interview at the company, or else, we couldn't have had enjoyable chats.” He continued, “Anyway, I wish you good luck today.” What John said touched Jack deeply. “Thank you, John! All the best!” said Jack. Half an hour later, John left, while Jack was told to stay there a little longer. 注意： 续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Due to his full preparations, Jack finished his interview smoothly. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hearing that Jack had got the job, John congratulated him sincerely over the phone. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考答案： Due to his full preparations, Jack finished his interview smoothly.

Later that afternoon, he received a call offering him the position. Overjoyed, he immediately called his family to share the good news. Then, with mixed feelings, he called his new friend John and thanked him for his advice and invaluable support. Deep inside, Jack wanted to do something to support John. Hearing that Jack had got the job, John congratulated him sincerely over the phone. He expressed great admiration for Jack’s ability, stressing that his talent had finally been recognized. Then John said he would attend an interview at another company. Jack was truly excited.
