Birds usually build their nests with leaves or grass. But do you know that birds are also building their nests with rubbish nowadays? They use cigarette butts (烟头) and shopping bags.
A group of scientists looked into about 35,000 studies on bird nests. They found that birds used rubbish in nests almost everywhere on earth except Antarctica (南极洲). Some rubbish seems to be helpful. This is why birds “like putting it in their nests.” For example, cigarette butts have special smell, so they can keep insects away and protect the baby birds. Shopping bags are useful in keeping the animals warm, and other hard things, such as paper cards, can make nests stronger.
However, in the end, human rubbish may only be bad for birds. The dangerous chemicals (化学制品) in cigarettes hurt the baby birds. They may get sick or have shorter lives, according to a study.
Except for the rubbish, if the cigarette still burns (燃烧) when the bird brings it back to its home, it may fire the nest. If the baby birds eat other kinds of rubbish by accident, they may also get hurt.
Don’t let our waste find its way into nature. And this can make a big difference!
29. What did scientists find?
A. Some people help birds build their nests. B. There is rubbish in the nests of many birds.
C. There is almost no bird living in Antarctica. D. The rubbish is not helpful to birds at all.

A. The rubbish. B. The bird. C. The cigarette butt. D. The nest.
31. What should people do according to the last paragraph?
A. Use more machines. B. Help our bird friends. C. Build some bird nests. D. Litter in nature.
32. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Rubbish is helpful for birds to build their nests.
B. Cigarette butts may hurt birds a lot and even kill them.
C. Human activities can bring lots of rubbish.
D. Birds are using human rubbish to build their nests.
C
The pirates, the Lost Boys, the Indians and the beasts are all walking round and round the island in a circle (圆). They never catch each other because they are all walking at the same speed. At the end of the procession, there is an enormous crocodile (鳄鱼). The boys are the first to leave the circle. They disappear very quickly into their home under the ground. The entrances to their home are in seven large trees. There’s one for each Lost Boy—Nibs, Slightly, Tootles, Curly, the Twins—and one for Peter Pan. Each boy enters through a hole in the trunk (枝干) of his tree. Hook does not know where their home is, but he wants to find it.
Later Nibs goes out for a walk. While he is walking through the woods, the pirates see him. Starkey, the ship’s mate, takes out his pistol (手枪) but Hook stops him and says, “No. I don’t want to shoot one Lost Boy. I want to kill all of them. Go and look for them! I want to find their house!”
The pirates disappear into the woods. Now Captain Hook and Mr. Smee, the ship’s bosun, are alone. Hook begins to talk about the Lost Boys.
“I want Peter Pan, Smee,” he says. “Peter Pan and the crocodile made me lose my left hand.”
“Oh, yes. I know that you are afraid of crocodiles,” says Smee.
“I am not afraid of all crocodiles,” explains Hook quickly. “Just one crocodile. It has my hand and now it wants to eat the rest of me.” Then he sits down on a large mushroom.
“Smee,” he says. “That crocodile wants to kill me, but luckily it has a clock inside it. The clock makes a noise: tick-tock, tick-tock. When I hear the tick-tock of the clock, I have time to run away before the crocodile can catch me.”
—Adapted from Peter Pan

Do you sometimes wonder why some friends feel as close as family? Genetics (遗传学) might have a hand in choosing your closest friends.
According to a US study with 1,932 people, friends have a kinship coefficient (亲缘系数) that is 0. 0014higher than that of strangers! The kinship coefficient is an easy way to see how genetically related (相关的) two people are-the higher the number, the closer the relationship.
Don’t look down on this number. The kinship coefficient between parents and children is about 0. 25. For first cousins, it is about 0. 0625, while for fourth cousins, it is around only 0. 001. This means you might share more genes (基因) with your best friend than with some distant (遥远的) family members.
Why are people with a high level of kinship coefficient more likely to become friends? A study in Science showed that close friends usually have similar body smells. Scientists collected sweat samples (汗液样本) from20 pairs of friends. They all became close in a short time. Using an e-nose and human volunteers to study the smells, they found that friends’ body odours (体味) were more alike than those of strangers. So, next time you hug your friends, you might notice that they smell a bit like you!
37. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By showing examples of close friends. B. By asking and answering a question.
C. By listing some important numbers. D. By sharing a story between friends.
38. What can the kinship coefficient show?
A. How much two friends have in common.
B. How distant two friends can be from each other.
C. How close the genetic relation between two people is.
D. How long it takes for two strangers to become friends.
39. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. Our best friend might be a distant family member.
B. The kinship coefficient between two friends is 0. 001.
C. Best friends have a higher kinship coefficient than first cousins.
D. Best friends may share more genetic similarities than distant relatives.
40. According to the passage, how may people become close friends?
A. They like the smell of each other’s body. B. They grow at a similar pace.
C. Their body smells are similar. D. Both friends like the same smell.

People can often see it at parks or on streets. The sugar painters usually sit behind a table. There are two revolvable arrows (可旋转箭头) on the table. There are different kinds of pictures such as animals from the twelve zodiacs (生肖), flowers or fruit. To make the sugar paintings, the painters need to prepare sugar first. Then, they keep the sugar at a high temperature (温度). When it’s OK, they quickly paint the pictures by moving their spoons up and down, left and right before it cools.
After giving money, people can turn the arrow to see where it stops. Then they wait for the painter to make the sugar painting for a while. At last, people can enjoy the beautiful and delicious food.
In some places, sugar painting is not only a popular street food and art, but also a traditional activity during big celebrations (庆祝). These days, students at some schools can even choose to learn how to make sugar paintings in their labor (劳动) class. They think it’s great fun.

二、单项选择(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
1. —Remember, when Miss Li asks you a question, give ________ honest answer.
—Don’t worry! You can’t find ________ more honest person than me.
A. a; a B. a; the C. an; the D. an; a
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——记住,当李老师问你问题时,给出一个诚实的回答。——别担心!你找不到比我更诚实的人了。
a不定冠词,表泛指,用于以辅音音素开头的单词前;an不定冠词,表泛指,用于以元音音素开头的单词前;the定冠词,表特指。第一空泛指“一个诚实的回答”,honest首字母h不发音,以元音音素开头,需用an;第二空考查“a + 比较级 + 单数名词”结构,表示最高级含义,more以辅音音素开头,需用a。
2. Now we have ________ homework at weekends than before, so we can visit my grandparents more often.
A. fewer B. more C. less D. little
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:现在我们周末的作业比以前少了,所以我们可以更经常去看望爷爷奶奶。
fewer修饰可数名词复数;more更多;less是little的比较级,修饰不可数名词;little原级,不能和than搭配。根据后半句“可以更经常看望爷爷奶奶”,说明作业变少了,homework不可数,所以用less。
3. Trees make the air cleaner. ________, they make the city cooler in summer.
A. However B. Instead C. Moreover D. So
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:树木使空气更清洁。此外,它们使城市在夏天更凉爽。
However然而;Instead代替;Moreover此外;So所以。根据“Trees make the air cleaner.”和“they make the city cooler in summer.”可知,前后两句都在说明树木的优点,属于递进关系。Moreover符合语境。
4. —________ time flies! It is four weeks since the new term started.

Birds usually build their nests with leaves or grass. But do you know that birds are also building their nests with rubbish nowadays? They use cigarette butts (烟头) and shopping bags.
A group of scientists looked into about 35,000 studies on bird nests. They found that birds used rubbish in nests almost everywhere on earth except Antarctica (南极洲). Some rubbish seems to be helpful. This is why birds “like putting it in their nests.” For example, cigarette butts have special smell, so they can keep insects away and protect the baby birds. Shopping bags are useful in keeping the animals warm, and other hard things, such as paper cards, can make nests stronger.
However, in the end, human rubbish may only be bad for birds. The dangerous chemicals (化学制品) in cigarettes hurt the baby birds. They may get sick or have shorter lives, according to a study.
Except for the rubbish, if the cigarette still burns (燃烧) when the bird brings it back to its home, it may fire the nest. If the baby birds eat other kinds of rubbish by accident, they may also get hurt.
Don’t let our waste find its way into nature. And this can make a big difference!
29. What did scientists find?
A. Some people help birds build their nests. B. There is rubbish in the nests of many birds.
C. There is almost no bird living in Antarctica. D. The rubbish is not helpful to birds at all.
30. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The rubbish. B. The bird. C. The cigarette butt. D. The nest.
31. What should people do according to the last paragraph?
A. Use more machines. B. Help our bird friends. C. Build some bird nests. D. Litter in nature.
32. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Rubbish is helpful for birds to build their nests.
B. Cigarette butts may hurt birds a lot and even kill them.
C. Human activities can bring lots of rubbish.
D. Birds are using human rubbish to build their nests.
【答案】29. B 30. C 31. B 32. D

C
The pirates, the Lost Boys, the Indians and the beasts are all walking round and round the island in a circle (圆). They never catch each other because they are all walking at the same speed. At the end of the procession, there is an enormous crocodile (鳄鱼). The boys are the first to leave the circle. They disappear very quickly into their home under the ground. The entrances to their home are in seven large trees. There’s one for each Lost Boy—Nibs, Slightly, Tootles, Curly, the Twins—and one for Peter Pan. Each boy enters through a hole in the trunk (枝干) of his tree. Hook does not know where their home is, but he wants to find it.
Later Nibs goes out for a walk. While he is walking through the woods, the pirates see him. Starkey, the ship’s mate, takes out his pistol (手枪) but Hook stops him and says, “No. I don’t want to shoot one Lost Boy. I want to kill all of them. Go and look for them! I want to find their house!”
The pirates disappear into the woods. Now Captain Hook and Mr. Smee, the ship’s bosun, are alone. Hook begins to talk about the Lost Boys.
“I want Peter Pan, Smee,” he says. “Peter Pan and the crocodile made me lose my left hand.”
“Oh, yes. I know that you are afraid of crocodiles,” says Smee.
“I am not afraid of all crocodiles,” explains Hook quickly. “Just one crocodile. It has my hand and now it wants to eat the rest of me.” Then he sits down on a large mushroom.
“Smee,” he says. “That crocodile wants to kill me, but luckily it has a clock inside it. The clock makes a noise: tick-tock, tick-tock. When I hear the tick-tock of the clock, I have time to run away before the crocodile can catch me.”
—Adapted from Peter Pan

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了男孩们逃脱了并且回到了自己的家,胡克船长和他的手下在寻找他们。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据“They never catch each other because they are all walking at the same speed.”可知,他们都以同样的速度行走。故选D。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据“There’s one for each Lost Boy—Nibs, Slightly, Tootles, Curly, the Twins—and one for Peter Pan.”可知,总共有6个迷失的小孩。故选B。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The boys are the first to leave the circle.”以及“Each boy enters through a hole in the trunk of his tree.”可知男孩们先离开了圆圈,之后每个男孩都从他的树干上的一个洞里进入,于是d排在b前面;根据“No. I don’t want to shoot one Lost Boy. I want to kill all of them. Go and look for them! I want to find their house!”可知胡克让手下去找所有的男孩,于是a排在b后面;根据“Hook begins to talk about the Lost Boys.”以及“Then he sits down on a large mushroom.”可知胡克谈论男孩之后,坐在了巨大蘑菇上,可知e排在a后面;通过胡克的谈话内容可知,彼得和鳄鱼让胡克失去了左手,可以推测这个发生在之前,故c排在最前面,于是句子正确的顺序是cdbae。故选A。
【36题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“That crocodile wants to kill me, but luckily it has a clock inside it.The clock makes a noise: tick-tock, tick-tock. When I hear the tick-tock of the clock, I have time to run away before the crocodile can catch me.”可知,胡克一听到这声音就知道鳄鱼要来了。故选D。
D
Do you sometimes wonder why some friends feel as close as family? Genetics (遗传学) might have a hand in choosing your closest friends.
According to a US study with 1,932 people, friends have a kinship coefficient (亲缘系数) that is 0. 0014higher than that of strangers! The kinship coefficient is an easy way to see how genetically related (相关的) two people are-the higher the number, the closer the relationship.
Don’t look down on this number. The kinship coefficient between parents and children is about 0. 25. For first cousins, it is about 0. 0625, while for fourth cousins, it is around only 0. 001. This means you might share more genes (基因) with your best friend than with some distant (遥远的) family members.
Why are people with a high level of kinship coefficient more likely to become friends? A study in Science showed that close friends usually have similar body smells. Scientists collected sweat samples (汗液样本) from20 pairs of friends. They all became close in a short time. Using an e-nose and human volunteers to study the smells, they found that friends’ body odours (体味) were more alike than those of strangers. So, next time you hug your friends, you might notice that they smell a bit like you!
37. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By showing examples of close friends. B. By asking and answering a question.
C. By listing some important numbers. D. By sharing a story between friends.
38. What can the kinship coefficient show?
A. How much two friends have in common.
B. How distant two friends can be from each other.
C. How close the genetic relation between two people is.
D. How long it takes for two strangers to become friends.
39. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. Our best friend might be a distant family member.
B. The kinship coefficient between two friends is 0. 001.
C. Best friends have a higher kinship coefficient than first cousins.
D. Best friends may share more genetic similarities than distant relatives.
40. According to the passage, how may people become close friends?
A. They like the smell of each other’s body. B. They grow at a similar pace.
C. Their body smells are similar. D. Both friends like the same smell.
【答案】37. B 38. C 39. D 40. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要探讨了遗传学在朋友选择中的作用,通过亲缘系数和体味相似性的研究数据,说明了朋友间可能存在基因和气味上的相似性。
【37题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Do you sometimes wonder why some friends feel as close as family? Genetics (遗传学) might have a hand in choosing your closest friends.”可知,作者通过提出一个问题并随即给出可能的答案来开启文章,符合By asking and answering a question的描述。
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The kinship coefficient is an easy way to see how genetically related (相关的) two people are”可知,亲缘系数用于展示两个人之间基因关系的紧密程度。
【39题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“This means you might share more genes (基因) with your best friend than with some distant (遥远的) family members.”可知,最好的朋友之间可能比远房亲戚共享更多的基因相似性。
【40题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“close friends usually have similar body smells.”及“friends’ body odours (体味) were more alike than those of strangers”可知,人们成为亲密朋友可能是因为他们的体味是相似的。
