“Kevin! Kevin! Did you hear what I said?” Ms. Reed, the band director, looked straight at him — she wanted him to take Robin’s place, since Robin had broken her arm, and play a solo (单人表演) at the concert. Kevin agreed, trying hard to hide his sadness: he was terrified of performing on stage, freezing up completely when playing alone, even though he was the best saxophone player in his middle school band and played with the senior high band too.
James, his bandmate, felt sorry for him and shared how he’d fainted on stage during a solo because he was so nervous. The story only made Kevin more worried, but something worse was coming. Kelly, the overly competitive top flutist in the state, stopped him, saying that the Youth Symphony director would come to the concert to listen to his solo — and if he played well, he could get a chance to try out. Her words made him feel heavy inside; he’d wanted to join the Youth Symphony for a long time but never had the courage to audition.
Running out of the school, Kevin thought of excuses to skip the solo: pretending to be ill, saying he’d hurt his finger. But he knew his parents would see he was lying, and hurting his finger on purpose was too dangerous. By the time he got home, his mom was very happy, talking excitedly about the Youth Symphony chance and Ms. Reed’s praise. Kevin lied that his day was okay, then went down to the furnace room — called “Kevin’s Dungeon” — his practice space. He picked up his saxophone, took a deep breath, and started to play.
This time, he didn’t focus on the fear of messing up; he focused on the music he loved. Maybe this solo wasn’t a nightmare — it was a chance to turn his dream into reality.
The final note faded, and loud applause burst out. Kevin smiled and felt a warm rush of joy in his heart. He finally understood that courage isn’t the lack of fear, but going ahead in spite of it. Dreams never come to those who run away from challenges; they always wait for those who dare to face their fears and try.
41. Why did Ms. Reed ask Kevin to play the solo at the concert?
A. Kevin was the most skilled sax player in the senior high band.
B. Robin was unable to perform due to a broken arm.
C. The Youth Symphony director personally recommended Kevin.
D. Kevin had been eager to get the solo opportunity for a long time.
42. The underlined phrase “freezing up” in Paragraph 1 probably means__________.
A. staying calm to deal with the performance
B. feeling extremely cold on the frightening stage
C. having great confidence in playing the solo
D. being unable to move or act because of nervousness
43. What made Kevin’s anxiety grow after he received the solo task?
A. James told him about his own embarrassing solo experience.
B. His mother didn’t believe he could perform well on stage.
C. Kelly laughed at him for lacking the courage to audition.
D. He found his practice room was too small to play the saxophone.
44. We can infer from the last paragraph that Kevin finally chose to__________.
A. pretend to be sick and miss the concert instantly
B. give up his dream of joining the Youth Symphony
C. face the challenge and practice for the solo actively
D. ask the band director to replace him with another student
45. What is the best title for the passage?
A. An Unsuccessful Solo Performance B. The Competitive Flutist Kelly
C. A Strict, Generous and Kind Band Director D. Stage Fright and A New Chance
C
Now, children who are recovering from a long-term illnesses in the hospital or at home may have a high-tech friend to help feel less lonely. And that friend is a robot called AV1. AV1 goes to school for a child who is homebound while recovering from a long-term illness. And the child’s school friends must help. They carry the robot between classes and place the robot on the child’s desk.
A Norwegian company called No Isolation created the robot. The co-founders of No Isolation are Karen Dolva and Marius Aabel. Dolva explains how the robot AV1 works. She says from home, the child uses a tablet or phone to start the robot. Then he uses the same device to control the robot’s movements. At school, the robot becomes the eyes, ears and voice of the child. “So, it sits at the child’s desk in the classroom and the child uses a tablet or a phone to start it, control its movement with touch, and talk through it.”
The student can partake in classroom activities from wherever he is recovering. The robot is equipped with speakers, microphones and cameras that make communicating easy. “It has speakers and microphones and cameras, and when the child speaks at home or in the hospital to his iPad it just comes out.”
This smooth interaction helps the child keep up with lessons, join group discussions freely and even share small joys with peers in class. It well narrows the distance between their recovery place and school, letting them stay closely linked to campus life instead of being left out alone.
The robot is designed to be tough. It is water proof and can take a fall from a desk without damage. Inside AV1, there is a small computer connected to 5G network. A small camera connected to a small computer could do the job. But that would not be the same. AV1 is large and looks like a human for a reason. Dolva says this is important because the robot is supposed to be a friend to the children. Hopefully AV1 will help some children feel less lonely while they are absent from class.
46. What can we know about AV1 in Para.2?
A. Its function. B. Its prospect.
C. Its developing history. D. Its production material.
47. What do the underlined words “partake in” in Para. 3 probably mean?
A. make up for B. replace C. take part in D. design
48. What’s the advantage of the smooth interaction for the student?
A. It makes the student forget the pain of recovery.
B. It helps the student keep connected with campus life.
C. It lets the student have more time to rest at home.
D. It allows the student to make more new friends.
49. Why is AV1 designed to be human-like?
A. To hold more advanced computer parts.
B. To offer kids support and companionship.
C. To make it tough enough against falls.
D. To attract more attention in the classroom.
50. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Development of Smart Robots.
B. 5G Network: A Trend in Education.
C. How to Cure Long-term Illnesses.
D. AV1: A Bridge to School Life.
D
It is said that most people have no more than 30 friends at any given time, and 400 over the whole of their lives. However, on social networking sites, most users have about 150 friends. If these numbers are correct, then friendship means different things in different situations.
Also, there are no rules about friendship. There are no instructions about how to make friends, how to keep friendships going, and how to finish friendships if we want to move on. People have very different opinions about this: some people would die for their friends and they value them more than family. Others say that friends are temporary, only there to help each other until they are no longer needed. If people with such different views become friends, this can lead to problems.
Because of these different definitions of friendship, it is easy to be unhappy about our friendships. We may want them to be deeper or closer, or we may want to have more friends in our lives. Sometimes we simply do not have the time to develop our friendships, or we fear we have left it too late in life to start. If we move to another country or city, we have to find ways to make new friends again.
This dissatisfaction shows us how important friendships are for most of us. We should not think that it could be too late to build friendships. We also need to understand that the need to be around other people is one that is shared by many. Therefore, we should not be too frightened about starting to talk to people who in the future may become our friends: it is likely that they too would like to get closer to us. Remember what people say: strangers are friends we have not met yet.
51. According to the text, how many friends do the majority of people probably have?
A. Over 400 friends in their whole lives. B. 30 friends or fewer at a certain stage.
C. 400 Internet friends in their whole lives. D. 150 Internet friends at a certain stage.
52. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A. There is a rule about making friends.
B. People with different views can become friends.
C. Friendships mean different things to different people.
D. Some people would die for their friends if they need to.
53. Sometimes people worry because ______.
A. they fear that there may be problems B. they think they are too old to make friends
C. they think that they have too many friends D. they spend too much time with friends
54. We can learn from the text that most of us ______.
A. need to be with others B. build friendships late in life
C. are dissatisfied with our friends D. are frightened to talk to strangers
55. What is the author’s attitude towards talking to a stranger?
A. Uninterested. B. Cautious. C. Doubtful. D. Positive.
五、阅读表达 (共5小题, 每小题2分)
阅读短文,并根据短文内容回答问题。
You may think kids are getting more homework than ever before. If so, think again. A new study by Brookings’ Brown Center on Education Policy shows that today’s students have no more homework than their parents did when they were in school.
The study’s author, Tom Loveless, reviewed surveys taken by kids and parents about how much homework young students have. The results showed that the typical elementary student has 30-45 minutes of homework each night. The average high-schooler has about an hour. These numbers have remained the same since 1984.
In a set of guidelines published by the National Parent Teacher Association (PTA), the amount of time students should spend on homework is their grade level multiplied by ten minutes. For example, a third-grader should have 30 minutes of homework, a fifth-grader 50 minutes, and so on. Loveless, who was a sixth-grade teacher in the 1980s, says this system has stayed consistent into the 21st century.
Homework is an important part of a student’s education. Some teachers argue that homework prepares kids for state tests and for college. They worry that a lighter homework load will put kids at a disadvantage. “Homework has benefits that go well beyond what’s going on in school,” says Harris Cooper, a University of Missouri psychology professor who has studied homework’s effect on test scores. Kids learn to be organized, manage their time and master new skills without a teacher’s help.
Teachers give two reasons for assigning a lot of homework. First, they say, the government now requires schools to meet higher-than-ever achievement goals for students. Second, they know many parents want their children to be able to get into the nation’s best colleges and universities. These parents believe homework is a way to ensure students are learning at their full capacity (能力).
56. What was the purpose of the study? (no more than 15 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
57. How long should a fourth-grader spend on his homework? (no more than 5 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
58. What does “consistent” in Paragraph 3 mean in English? (no more than 5 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
59. What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about? (no more than 5 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
60. What do you think of doing homework? And why? (no more than 20 words)

【解析】

It couldn’t be better再好不过了;非常完美。题干中“Do you mind if...”用于委婉地请求许可,意为“你介意……吗?”。对于该句型的回答,如果不同意对方的请求(即介意),通常使用“I’d rather you didn’t.(我宁愿你不做)”来进行委婉拒绝。根据后文“He is too young to attend it.(他太小了,不能参加)”可知,答话人不同意对方带弟弟去。
2. I prefer a college in Yunnan to ______ in Sichuan, because I like the climate in Yunnan.
A. it B. that C. one D. this

“Kevin! Kevin! Did you hear what I said?” Ms. Reed, the band director, looked straight at him — she wanted him to take Robin’s place, since Robin had broken her arm, and play a solo (单人表演) at the concert. Kevin agreed, trying hard to hide his sadness: he was terrified of performing on stage, freezing up completely when playing alone, even though he was the best saxophone player in his middle school band and played with the senior high band too.
James, his bandmate, felt sorry for him and shared how he’d fainted on stage during a solo because he was so nervous. The story only made Kevin more worried, but something worse was coming. Kelly, the overly competitive top flutist in the state, stopped him, saying that the Youth Symphony director would come to the concert to listen to his solo — and if he played well, he could get a chance to try out. Her words made him feel heavy inside; he’d wanted to join the Youth Symphony for a long time but never had the courage to audition.
Running out of the school, Kevin thought of excuses to skip the solo: pretending to be ill, saying he’d hurt his finger. But he knew his parents would see he was lying, and hurting his finger on purpose was too dangerous. By the time he got home, his mom was very happy, talking excitedly about the Youth Symphony chance and Ms. Reed’s praise. Kevin lied that his day was okay, then went down to the furnace room — called “Kevin’s Dungeon” — his practice space. He picked up his saxophone, took a deep breath, and started to play.
This time, he didn’t focus on the fear of messing up; he focused on the music he loved. Maybe this solo wasn’t a nightmare — it was a chance to turn his dream into reality.
The final note faded, and loud applause burst out. Kevin smiled and felt a warm rush of joy in his heart. He finally understood that courage isn’t the lack of fear, but going ahead in spite of it. Dreams never come to those who run away from challenges; they always wait for those who dare to face their fears and try.
41. Why did Ms. Reed ask Kevin to play the solo at the concert?
A. Kevin was the most skilled sax player in the senior high band.
B. Robin was unable to perform due to a broken arm.
C. The Youth Symphony director personally recommended Kevin.
D. Kevin had been eager to get the solo opportunity for a long time.
42. The underlined phrase “freezing up” in Paragraph 1 probably means__________.
A. staying calm to deal with the performance
B. feeling extremely cold on the frightening stage
C. having great confidence in playing the solo
D. being unable to move or act because of nervousness
43. What made Kevin’s anxiety grow after he received the solo task?
A. James told him about his own embarrassing solo experience.
B. His mother didn’t believe he could perform well on stage.
C. Kelly laughed at him for lacking the courage to audition.
D. He found his practice room was too small to play the saxophone.
44. We can infer from the last paragraph that Kevin finally chose to__________.
A. pretend to be sick and miss the concert instantly
B. give up his dream of joining the Youth Symphony
C. face the challenge and practice for the solo actively
D. ask the band director to replace him with another student
45. What is the best title for the passage?
A. An Unsuccessful Solo Performance B. The Competitive Flutist Kelly
C. A Strict, Generous and Kind Band Director D. Stage Fright and A New Chance
【答案】41. B 42. D 43. A 44. C 45. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了Kevin克服舞台恐惧,勇敢接受独奏挑战并最终获得成功的故事。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中““Kevin! Kevin! Did you hear what I said?” Ms. Reed, the band director, looked straight at him — she wanted him to take Robin’s place, since Robin had broken her arm, and play a solo (单人表演) at the concert.(“Kevin!Kevin!你听到我说的话了吗?”乐队指挥Reed女士直视着他——她想让他代替Robin在音乐会上演奏独奏,因为Robin手臂骨折了。)”可知,Reed女士让Kevin演奏独奏是因为Robin手臂骨折无法表演。
【42题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段中“Kevin agreed, trying hard to hide his sadness: he was terrified of performing on stage, freezing up completely when playing alone(Kevin答应了,努力掩饰自己的悲伤:他非常害怕在舞台上表演,独自演奏时会完全freezing up)”可知,Kevin害怕在舞台上表演,会因紧张而无法动弹。所以画线短语“freezing up”意为与“being unable to move or act because of nervousness”。
【43题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“James, his bandmate, felt sorry for him and shared how he’d fainted on stage during a solo because he was so nervous. The story only made Kevin more worried(他的乐队伙伴James为他感到难过,并分享了自己曾因太紧张在独奏时晕倒在舞台上的经历。这个故事只是让Kevin更加担心)”可知,James分享的尴尬经历让Kevin更加焦虑。
【44题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“This time, he didn’t focus on the fear of messing up; he focused on the music he loved. Maybe this solo wasn’t a nightmare — it was a chance to turn his dream into reality.(这一次,他没有把注意力放在害怕出错的恐惧上;他专注于自己热爱的音乐。也许这段独奏不是一场噩梦——而是一个把梦想变成现实的机会。)”和最后一段中“The final note faded, and loud applause burst out.(最后一个音符落下,热烈的掌声爆发出来。)”可知,Kevin最终取得了成功,说明他选择直面挑战并进行了积极练习。
【45题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,结合第一段中“Kevin agreed, trying hard to hide his sadness: he was terrified of performing on stage(Kevin答应了,努力掩饰自己的悲伤:他非常害怕在舞台上表演)”、倒数第二段中“This time, he didn’t focus on the fear of messing up; he focused on the music he loved. Maybe this solo wasn’t a nightmare — it was a chance to turn his dream into reality.(这一次,他没有把注意力放在害怕出错的恐惧上;他专注于自己热爱的音乐。也许这段独奏不是一场噩梦——而是一个把梦想变成现实的机会。)”和最后一段中“He finally understood that courage isn’t the lack of fear, but going ahead in spite of it.(他终于明白,勇气不是没有恐惧,而是尽管恐惧仍勇往直前。)”可知,文章主要讲述Kevin面对舞台恐惧并抓住新机会的故事,D项“Stage Fright and A New Chance(舞台恐惧与新机会)”最能概括文章内容,最适合做文章标题。
C
Now, children who are recovering from a long-term illnesses in the hospital or at home may have a high-tech friend to help feel less lonely. And that friend is a robot called AV1. AV1 goes to school for a child who is homebound while recovering from a long-term illness. And the child’s school friends must help. They carry the robot between classes and place the robot on the child’s desk.
A Norwegian company called No Isolation created the robot. The co-founders of No Isolation are Karen Dolva and Marius Aabel. Dolva explains how the robot AV1 works. She says from home, the child uses a tablet or phone to start the robot. Then he uses the same device to control the robot’s movements. At school, the robot becomes the eyes, ears and voice of the child. “So, it sits at the child’s desk in the classroom and the child uses a tablet or a phone to start it, control its movement with touch, and talk through it.”
The student can partake in classroom activities from wherever he is recovering. The robot is equipped with speakers, microphones and cameras that make communicating easy. “It has speakers and microphones and cameras, and when the child speaks at home or in the hospital to his iPad it just comes out.”
This smooth interaction helps the child keep up with lessons, join group discussions freely and even share small joys with peers in class. It well narrows the distance between their recovery place and school, letting them stay closely linked to campus life instead of being left out alone.
The robot is designed to be tough. It is water proof and can take a fall from a desk without damage. Inside AV1, there is a small computer connected to 5G network. A small camera connected to a small computer could do the job. But that would not be the same. AV1 is large and looks like a human for a reason. Dolva says this is important because the robot is supposed to be a friend to the children. Hopefully AV1 will help some children feel less lonely while they are absent from class.
46. What can we know about AV1 in Para.2?
A. Its function. B. Its prospect.
C. Its developing history. D. Its production material.
47. What do the underlined words “partake in” in Para. 3 probably mean?
A. make up for B. replace C. take part in D. design
48. What’s the advantage of the smooth interaction for the student?
A. It makes the student forget the pain of recovery.
B. It helps the student keep connected with campus life.
C. It lets the student have more time to rest at home.
D. It allows the student to make more new friends.
49. Why is AV1 designed to be human-like?
A. To hold more advanced computer parts.
B. To offer kids support and companionship.
C. To make it tough enough against falls.
D. To attract more attention in the classroom.
50. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Development of Smart Robots.
B. 5G Network: A Trend in Education.
C. How to Cure Long-term Illnesses.
D. AV1: A Bridge to School Life.
【答案】46. A 47. C 48. B 49. B 50. D
【解析】
【导语】主要介绍AV1机器人的工作原理、功能优势、设计特点,它能帮助长期养病的孩子远程融入校园生活、减少孤独感。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Dolva explains how the robot AV1 works. She says from home, the child uses a tablet or phone to start the robot. Then he uses the same device to control the robot’s movements. At school, the robot becomes the eyes, ears and voice of the child.(多尔瓦解释了AV1机器人如何工作。她说孩子在家可以用平板或手机启动机器人,再用同一设备操控它的行动,在学校里机器人就成了孩子的眼睛、耳朵和声音。)”可知,第二段主要讲解AV1机器人的工作方式与功用。
【47题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“The student can partake in classroom activities from wherever he is recovering. The robot is equipped with speakers, microphones and cameras that make communicating easy.(学生无论在养病的任何地方都能参与课堂活动。这款机器人配备扬声器、麦克风和摄像头,让沟通变得十分便捷。)”可知,结合上下文语境,生病学生可借助机器人参与课堂活动,由此可推断,partake in的意思为“参加、参与”,和take part in意思一致。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“This smooth interaction helps the child keep up with lessons, join group discussions freely and even share small joys with peers in class. It well narrows the distance between their recovery place and school, letting them stay closely linked to campus life instead of being left out alone.(这种顺畅的互动帮助孩子跟上课程进度、自由参与小组讨论、甚至和班上同学分享小快乐。它拉近了休养地与学校之间的距离,让他们与校园生活紧密相连,不会独自被边缘化。)”可知,顺畅互动能帮助养病学生和校园生活保持紧密联系。
【49题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的“AV1 is large and looks like a human for a reason. Dolva says this is important because the robot is supposed to be a friend to the children.(AV1体型偏大且外形酷似人类是有缘由的。多尔瓦称这一点十分重要,因为这款机器人理应成为孩子们的朋友。)”可知,将AV1设计成人形,是为了给孩子陪伴与精神支持。
【50题详解】

And that friend is a robot called AV1.(如今,在医院或家中康复的长期患病儿童,可以拥有一位高科技伙伴来减少孤独感,这位伙伴就是名叫AV1的机器人。)”以及后文依次介绍它的工作原理、功能作用、交互优势和拟人设计用意可知,文章围绕AV1机器人展开,介绍它成为患病孩子衔接校园生活的纽带,所以“AV1: A Bridge to School Life(AV1:通往校园生活的桥梁)”最能概括全文核心,适合作为最佳标题。
D
It is said that most people have no more than 30 friends at any given time, and 400 over the whole of their lives. However, on social networking sites, most users have about 150 friends. If these numbers are correct, then friendship means different things in different situations.
Also, there are no rules about friendship. There are no instructions about how to make friends, how to keep friendships going, and how to finish friendships if we want to move on. People have very different opinions about this: some people would die for their friends and they value them more than family. Others say that friends are temporary, only there to help each other until they are no longer needed. If people with such different views become friends, this can lead to problems.
Because of these different definitions of friendship, it is easy to be unhappy about our friendships. We may want them to be deeper or closer, or we may want to have more friends in our lives. Sometimes we simply do not have the time to develop our friendships, or we fear we have left it too late in life to start. If we move to another country or city, we have to find ways to make new friends again.
This dissatisfaction shows us how important friendships are for most of us. We should not think that it could be too late to build friendships. We also need to understand that the need to be around other people is one that is shared by many. Therefore, we should not be too frightened about starting to talk to people who in the future may become our friends: it is likely that they too would like to get closer to us. Remember what people say: strangers are friends we have not met yet.

A. Over 400 friends in their whole lives. B. 30 friends or fewer at a certain stage.

五、阅读表达 (共5小题, 每小题2分)
阅读短文,并根据短文内容回答问题。
You may think kids are getting more homework than ever before. If so, think again. A new study by Brookings’ Brown Center on Education Policy shows that today’s students have no more homework than their parents did when they were in school.
The study’s author, Tom Loveless, reviewed surveys taken by kids and parents about how much homework young students have. The results showed that the typical elementary student has 30-45 minutes of homework each night. The average high-schooler has about an hour. These numbers have remained the same since 1984.
In a set of guidelines published by the National Parent Teacher Association (PTA), the amount of time students should spend on homework is their grade level multiplied by ten minutes. For example, a third-grader should have 30 minutes of homework, a fifth-grader 50 minutes, and so on. Loveless, who was a sixth-grade teacher in the 1980s, says this system has stayed consistent into the 21st century.
Homework is an important part of a student’s education. Some teachers argue that homework prepares kids for state tests and for college. They worry that a lighter homework load will put kids at a disadvantage. “Homework has benefits that go well beyond what’s going on in school,” says Harris Cooper, a University of Missouri psychology professor who has studied homework’s effect on test scores. Kids learn to be organized, manage their time and master new skills without a teacher’s help.
Teachers give two reasons for assigning a lot of homework. First, they say, the government now requires schools to meet higher-than-ever achievement goals for students. Second, they know many parents want their children to be able to get into the nation’s best colleges and universities. These parents believe homework is a way to ensure students are learning at their full capacity (能力).
