A. asked B. guided C. advised D. ordered 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——简做了什么来帮助那对老夫妻？——她引导他们穿过繁忙的街道到中心公园。 考查动词辨析。asked问；guided引导；advised建议；ordered命令。根据“them through the busy streets to Center Park”可知，是指帮助引导这对老夫妻穿过繁忙街道到中心公园。故选B。 3. Grandparents grow flowers_______ the balcony. A. to B. at C. on D. for 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：祖父母在阳台上种花。 考查介词辨析。to到……；at在（某地）；on在……上面；for为了。根据语境可知，此处表达的是在阳台上种花，“在阳台上”常用“on the balcony”来表达，所以应该用介词on。故选C。 4. —I am afraid of performing alone. I am not as outgoing as you. —But you work much ________ than me. A. more harder B. harder C. more hardly D. hardest 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我害怕独自表演。我不像你那么外向。——但你工作比我努力得多。 考查副词比较级。根据“But you work much...than me.”可知，此处用副词的比较级，hard作副词，意为“努力地”，其比较级形式为harder。故选B。 5. Betty thinks pizzas taste ________ hamburgers. A. as best as B. as well as C. as good as D. as better as 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：贝蒂认为披萨尝起来和汉堡一样好吃。 考查形容词原级。“as...as”表示“和……一样”，中间必须使用形容词或副词的原级，排除选项A和选项D；句中taste“尝起来”，是系动词，后需接形容词作表语，描述主语“pizzas”的特性；而“well”通常作副词，用于修饰动词，只有在表示“身体好”时才是形容词，因此排除选项B，而good是形容词，符合语法要求。故选C。 6. —Your team won the basketball game yesterday! —Yes! ________ my teammates’ hard training.

Ready to 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你们队昨天赢了篮球比赛！——是的！多亏了我队友们的刻苦训练。 考查介词短语。Thanks to多亏，由于；According to根据；Far from远非，一点也不；Ready to准备。根据前文“Your team won the basketball game yesterday!”和“Yes!”可知，答话者认同赢球，并强调原因是队友的努力，因此需用表示原因的短语，A选项“多亏，由于”符合语境。故选A。 7. －Do you know Shanghai is one of ________ in the world? －Yes, it’s bigger than any other city in China. A. the biggest city B. the biggest cities C. the most biggest city D. the most biggest cities 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你知道上海是世界上最大的城市之一吗？——是的，它比中国任何其他城市都大。 考查形容词最高级。“one of the+形容词最高级+名词复数”是固定结构，意为“最……的……之一”。big的最高级是biggest，因此空格处应填“the biggest cities”。故选B。 8. －Where did you go last summer vacation? －I didn’t go ________, but I worked ________ a tour guide at a museum. A. special anywhere; as B. somewhere special; like C. special somewhere; as D. anywhere special; as 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你去年暑假去哪儿了？——我没去什么特别的地方，但我在一家博物馆当导游。 考查不定副词及介词辨析。special anywhere错误搭配；somewhere special特别的地方；special somewhere错误搭配；anywhere special任何特别的地方；as作为；like像。“somewhere”一般用于肯定句，表示“在某处”；“anywhere”用于否定句、疑问句，表示“在任何地方”；前半句是否定句，所以用“anywhere”，“special”修饰“anywhere”要后置，即“anywhere special”；“work as”是固定短语，意思是“担任……工作”。故选D。 9.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者去年夏天和好友莉莉在乡下度过的精彩假期，经历了许多有趣的事情，留下了难忘的美好回忆。 【21题详解】 句意：天气真的很好，每天阳光明媚且温暖。 后文“sunny and warm every day”是对天气的描述，weather表示天气；water（水）、farm（农场）、carnival（嘉年华）都不能用sunny and warm来形容。 【22题详解】 句意：我们采摘新鲜的草莓，并且当场吃掉了。 前文提到we went to a strawberry farm（草莓农场），所以采摘的是strawberries（草莓）；apples（苹果）、oranges（橙子）、bananas（香蕉）和草莓农场的语境不匹配。 【23题详解】 句意：在那之后，我们去了附近的一个湖。 that指代前面摘草莓这件事，动作顺序是先摘草莓，再去湖边，after表示“在……之后”；before（在……之前）、towards（朝向）、during（在……期间）不符合动作先后逻辑。 【24题详解】 句意：湖水清凉舒适，我们游泳玩得很开心。 前文提到lake以及the water was cool，对应在湖里游泳swimming；walking（散步）、washing（清洗）、jumping（跳跃）和湖水这个场景搭配不如swimming贴切。 【25题详解】 句意：我们坐了大型游乐设施，它很刺激，还有一点点吓人。 and连接并列的感受，后面a little bit scary表示“略带惊险”，exciting（刺激的）和scary可以搭配描述游乐项目；boring（无聊的）、juicy（多汁的）、fresh（新鲜的）都不能形容游乐设施。 【26题详解】 句意：所有事物都令人印象深刻，感觉我们仿佛置身故事书中。 前文介绍嘉年华的游乐项目、魔术表演，整体体验都很好，everything表示“一切事物”；nobody（没有人）、none（没有一个）、someone（某人）代入句子语义不通。 【27题详解】 句意：在那里的时候，我们还去山里散步。 后文“The view from the top was beautiful”从山顶望去风景很美，说明是在山里，对应mountains；lake（湖）、storybook（故事书）、waterfall（瀑布）不存在“山顶”这个视角。 【28题详解】 句意：在返程的路上，我们发现了一处隐秘的瀑布。 固定搭配on one’s way back，表示“在回来的路上”。 【29题详解】 句意：这个假期很特别，因为它充满让人兴奋的活动和珍贵的瞬间。 后半句是假期特别的原因，because引导原因状语从句；but（但是，表转折）、or（或者，表选择）、so（所以，表结果）逻辑不符。 【30题详解】 句意：这是一个我们会永远记住的假期。 整段都在说假期有美好的回忆，remember表示“记住”，符合语境；study（学习）、fight（打架）、forget（忘记）和整篇积极怀念的基调相反。 Ⅶ．补全对话(共5小题;每小题1分，满分5分) 阅读下面对话，从7个选项中选择5个恰当的句子完成此对话。 A: Hi, Kate!

It is for children to go into the lonely (荒凉的) place for exciting activities, and their parents won’t go with them. During the activities, other grown-ups will not be around them, either. Many parents like “Survival Holidays” because they think being close to nature is good for children. Many children in big cities spend most time watching TV and playing computer games. “Survival Holidays” makes a big difference to their life. Is “Survival Holidays” a great idea? Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play. And they need to be on their own. Parents like to see their children join in activities, but they think the activities should be controlled (被控制) by grown-ups. Children don’t know what to do when they meet difficulty. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard thing. Children usually don’t know what to do in face of danger. Even small danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them. The survival activities are good for children. Even years later they will still remember what they learned. Some learned to keep their head in dangerous times. Some learned how to stay away from danger. Others learned how to work in a team. All these will help them a lot in their life. 42. How does the writer start the text? A. By telling a story. B. By showing a fact. C. By giving an example. D. By asking a question. 43. Why do many parents like “Survival Holidays”? A. It has exciting activities. B. It makes a difference to their life. C. It helps children be close to nature. D. They can join it with their children. 44. What does the example of “crossing a small river” want to show? A. Parents should help their children. B. Children should learn to cross a river. C. Children have more free time to play. D. Children don’t know how to face difficulty. 45. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Survival Holidays B. Love From Parents C. Holidays With Parents D. Ways to Face Danger 【答案】42. D 43. C 44. D 45. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了“生存假期”的定义，说明父母喜欢它的原因，指出孩子面对困难的不足，进而强调“生存假期”对孩子成长的积极意义。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Have you heard about ‘Survival (生存) Holidays’?”可知，作者通过提出一个问题来开始这篇文章，故选D。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Many parents like ‘Survival Holidays’ because they think being close to nature is good for children.”可知，许多家长喜欢“生存假期”是因为它能帮助孩子亲近自然，故选C。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Children don’t know what to do when they meet difficulty.

My name is Sara and I’m thirteen years old. I’m from Spain. My best friend is Mary. She is from Poland and one year older than me. She came to Spain with her family five years ago. At the beginning she couldn’t speak Spanish well, but now it’s different. She’s very hard-working at school and she’s fluent in Spanish now. Mary is tall and beautiful. She has long curly brown hair and brown eyes. We are in the same school and she lives not far from my home. We often go home together. After school we also spend some time together. Because I’m better at maths and science and she is better at history and geography, we can always help each other with our homework. She also likes reading very much. Last year she won a special prize for the best reader in our class. My friend is not very sporty. She doesn’t like team games but she likes swimming. I like sports and we go swimming together every Saturday morning. She’s a little shy with new people, but with me she’s friendly! I like her and she always brings out the best in me. I really hope we can be the best friends for life! 46. What does the underlined word “fluent” mean in Chinese? A. 乐观的 B. 悲观的 C. 生硬的 D. 流利的 47. From the passage, we can know that Mary ________.

To make our living space more lively and lovely, many people choose to have either plants or pets at home. But which one is a better choice? Plants can bring a lot of benefits. They can make the air in our home fresh and clean. Besides, plants are beautiful decorations (装饰物). Colourful flowers like roses and lilies (百合花) can brighten up any room. Taking care of plants is also a relaxing hobby. You just need to water them properly and give them enough sunlight. On the other hand, pets can be great companions (伙伴). Dogs are honest friends. They will greet you happily when you come home. Cats are lovely and can make you feel warm with their soft fur. Pets can also teach you responsibility (责任心). You need to feed them, take them for walks (for dogs), and clean up after them. However, there are also some disadvantages (缺点). Plants might attract insects if not taken care of well. And pets can be noisy and messy. They may break your furniture or make a lot of noise, especially when they are young. So, whether to have plants or pets at home depends on your lifestyle. If you are busy and prefer a quiet environment, plants might be a better choice. But if you have enough time and love the company of animals, pets could be better for your sweet home. 49. What benefit can plants bring to our homes? A. They can play with us. B. They can clean the air. C. They can guard (保卫) our homes. D. They can help us do homework. 50. Why are pets great companions? A. Because they can clean the house. B. Because they are always quiet. C. Because they are honest and lovely. D. Because they can cook meals for us. 51. What might happen if plants are not taken care of well? A. They will attract insects. B. They will make the air dirty. C. They will grow very fast. D. They will make noise. 52. What should you consider when deciding between plants or pets for your home? A. The cost of buying them. B. The weather in your hometown. C. The size of your living space. D. Your lifestyle and available time. 【答案】49. B 50. C 51. A 52. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章探讨了在家养植物还是宠物的选择，分析了两者的优点与缺点，最终指出应根据生活方式和时间来决定。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“They can make the air in our home fresh and clean.”可知，植物能净化空气。 【50题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Dogs are honest friends...

Friends play a very important role in our lives. But should friends be the same or different? In fact, both kinds of friendships have their own advantages (优点). Friends with similarities are easy to get along with. They share the same hobbies, such as loving football or reading novels. This makes communication easy and they can enjoy activities together. For example, my friend and I both like painting. We often go to the park to paint the scenery, sharing skills and ideas. On the other hand, different friends can bring new things. They have different opinions and ways of thinking. My friend who is good at maths always helps me solve difficult problems. His thinking is quite different from mine, and I have learned a lot from him. Four sayings about friends: 1. A friend in need is a friend indeed. 2. A true friend is one soul in two bodies. 3. Friends are like stars; you don’t always see them, but you know they’re there. 4. Make new friends, but keep the old; one is silver and the other is gold. In a word, whether friends are the same or different doesn’t matter. What really matters is the true feelings between friends. 53. What can different friends bring? (不超过10个词) ______________________________ 54. What is the most important thing in a friendship according to the passage? (不超过10个词) ______________________________ 55. What does the third saying about friends mean? (不超过10个词) ______________________________ 【答案】53. They can bring new things. 54. The true feelings between friends. 55. Friends are always there even if not seen. 【解析】 【导语】本文主要探讨了朋友应该是相同的还是不同的，介绍了两类友谊各自的优势，点明友谊中真挚情感才是关键。 【53题详解】 第三段直接给出信息“different friends can bring new things”，不同的朋友能带来新事物，答案为原文直接信息。 【54题详解】 文章最后一段提出“What really matters is the true feelings between friends”，真正重要的是朋友之间真挚的感情，这是原文核心观点，直接提取作答。 【55题详解】 文章表格中第3条谚语“Friends are like stars; you don’t always see them, but you know they’re there.”，真正的朋友即使不常联系或不在身边，但在你需要的时候，他们始终在那里支持你。答案对谚语含义进行简洁概括，符合题意与词数限制。 第四部分 写(共两大题，满分25分) Ⅸ．单词拼写(共5小题;每小题1分，满分5分) 根据首字母及汉语提示，完成下列单词的拼写，使句意明确，语言通顺。 56.

Can you help me p________ (拉) my luggage? 【答案】pull##ull 【解析】 【详解】句意：你能帮我拉我的行李吗？根据汉语提示和首字母p可知，pull意为“拉”，动词；help sb. (to) do sth.为固定搭配，意为“帮助某人做某事”，故填pull。 58. Her g________ (美德) and kindness won everyone’s heart. 【答案】goodness##oodness 【解析】 【详解】句意：她的美德和善良赢得了所有人的心。句中“and”连接两个并列的名词作主语，后面已经给出名词“kindness”（善良），结合中文“美德”及首字母提示，goodness“善良、美德”符合语境。 59. The hotel room was clean and c________ (舒适的) , which made our trip more enjoyable. 【答案】comfortable##omfortable 【解析】 【详解】句意：这家酒店的房间干净又舒适，让我们的旅行更加愉快。句中and连接并列成分，前面是形容词clean，空处也需要填入形容词作表语，结合括号内汉语提示“舒适的”及首字母为c可知，comfortable“舒适的”，符合语境。 60.

She lived with her parents in a big city. But her grandmother lived in the countryside. They got together with her only once a year. When the old woman missed them, she could call them and tell them she would come to see them. The Carter family was busy preparing for grandma’s visit. “We must clean up the whole house before Friday,” Mrs Carter said. On Wednesday, 13-year-old Tina started to pack up old toys in her bedroom while her brother Sam hung up vacation photos in the living room. “Don’t forget to feed the fish!” Dad said to them as he swept the bathroom floor. At 3 p.m., neighbor Ms Green drove them to the community recycling center with four bags of rubbish. “Let’s take some fresh flowers to the dinner table later,” Mum suggested. They all knew grandma liked flowers best. When Tina found grandma’s old diary in a vase (花瓶), she joked, “This diary looks like a treasure hunt because it told many interesting stories in it.” Dad said, “Be careful with the glass vase—it breaks easily!” 39.

It is for children to go into the lonely (荒凉的) place for exciting activities, and their parents won’t go with them. During the activities, other grown-ups will not be around them, either. Many parents like “Survival Holidays” because they think being close to nature is good for children. Many children in big cities spend most time watching TV and playing computer games. “Survival Holidays” makes a big difference to their life. Is “Survival Holidays” a great idea? Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play. And they need to be on their own. Parents like to see their children join in activities, but they think the activities should be controlled (被控制) by grown-ups. Children don’t know what to do when they meet difficulty. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard thing. Children usually don’t know what to do in face of danger. Even small danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them. The survival activities are good for children. Even years later they will still remember what they learned. Some learned to keep their head in dangerous times. Some learned how to stay away from danger. Others learned how to work in a team. All these will help them a lot in their life. 42. How does the writer start the text? A. By telling a story. B. By showing a fact. C. By giving an example. D. By asking a question. 43. Why do many parents like “Survival Holidays”? A. It has exciting activities. B. It makes a difference to their life. C. It helps children be close to nature. D. They can join it with their children. 44. What does the example of “crossing a small river” want to show? A. Parents should help their children. B. Children should learn to cross a river. C. Children have more free time to play. D. Children don’t know how to face difficulty. 45. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Survival Holidays B. Love From Parents C. Holidays With Parents D. Ways to Face Danger D Hello!

Because I’m better at maths and science and she is better at history and geography, we can always help each other with our homework. She also likes reading very much. Last year she won a special prize for the best reader in our class. My friend is not very sporty. She doesn’t like team games but she likes swimming. I like sports and we go swimming together every Saturday morning. She’s a little shy with new people, but with me she’s friendly! I like her and she always brings out the best in me.

Plants can bring a lot of benefits. They can make the air in our home fresh and clean. Besides, plants are beautiful decorations (装饰物). Colourful flowers like roses and lilies (百合花) can brighten up any room. Taking care of plants is also a relaxing hobby. You just need to water them properly and give them enough sunlight.

Pets can also teach you responsibility (责任心). You need to feed them, take them for walks (for dogs), and clean up after them. However, there are also some disadvantages (缺点). Plants might attract insects if not taken care of well. And pets can be noisy and messy. They may break your furniture or make a lot of noise, especially when they are young.
