A. lesson B. reason C. break D. truth 【答案】1. A 2. A 3. B 4. D 5. C 6. B 7. C 8. C 9. D 10. A 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了一个年轻人遇困境求助老人，老人以向日葵和竹子生长为例，告诉他困境是扎根蓄力的过程。年轻人重拾希望，明白困难是自然的，重要的是努力让自己变得强大。 【1题详解】 句意：他向老人分享了他的经历，并问道：“你能给我一个不放弃的好理由吗？” 根据后文“his experiences with the old man”可知，他把经历讲给老人听，share with意为“与……分享”，符合语境。spared“抽出、饶恕”，made“制作”，changed“改变”，语义不通。 【2题详解】 句意：“看，”老人说，“你看到这里的向日葵和竹子了吗？” 根据后文“After I planted the sunflower and bamboo seeds...”可知，这里指的是向日葵和竹子，bamboo符合语境。carrots“胡萝卜”，fruit“水果”，tomatoes“西红柿”，下文未提及。 【3题详解】 句意：“我种下向日葵和竹子种子后，我仔细地给它们浇水。” 根据常识及后文“I watered the bamboo seeds”可知，种下种子后需要浇水，watered意为“浇水”，符合语境。cleaned“清理”，hunted“打猎”，covered“覆盖”，不符合种植语境。 【4题详解】 句意：虽然我给竹子种子浇了四年的水，它们仍然没有破土而出。但我一直照顾它们。 根据句意，前文提到种子没长出来，but表示转折，说明老人一直在照顾它们，look after意为“照顾”，符合语境。thinking about“考虑”，picking up“捡起”，cutting down“砍倒”， 语义不通。 【5题详解】 句意：“仅仅六个月后，竹子就长到了一百英尺高。” 根据前文“they came out a little”以及后文“a hundred feet”可知，竹子在六个月内长得很高，形容植物直立生长的高度用tall。short“短的”，long“长的”，heavy“重的”，形容高度不准确。 【6题详解】 句意：“小竹子过去四年在地下生长，发展强大的根。” 植物在地下扎根也是生长过程，植物发育用生长，growing意为“生长”，符合语境。searching“搜寻”，sleeping“睡觉”，walking“走”，拟人化不当。 【7题详解】 句意：“所以你知道，当你面临问题时，你实际上是在长出强大的根。” 根据句意，此处表示“当……的时候”，when意为“当……时”，引导时间状语从句，符合语境。before“在……之前”，until“直到”，so“所以”，逻辑不通。 【8题详解】 句意：最后，男人感谢了老人，带着对生活的希望离开了森林。 根据后文“left the forest with the hope for life”可知，年轻人得到了启发，应该感谢老人，thanked意为“感谢”，符合语境。held“握住”，fought“打架”，pulled“拉”，不符合礼貌逻辑。 【9题详解】 句意：在我们的生活中，遇到困难是很自然的。 根据句意，生活中遇到困难是很正常的事情，natural意为“自然的”，符合语境。lucky“幸运的”，special“特别的”，dangerous“危险的”，语义不通。 【10题详解】 句意：那是从竹子身上学到的很好的一课。 根据前文老人通过竹子的故事教导年轻人可知，这是一个教训，learn a lesson from为常用搭配，指汲取教训。reason“原因”，break“休息”，truth“真相”，搭配不当。 二、阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分，满分30分) 阅读下面三段材料，根据材料内容和要求。从后面所给的四个选项中选择一个最佳答案。 A 11.

Then you must visit Zhangye Geopark (地质公园), which lies in Gansu Province, China! It’s recognized by UNESCO as one of the best geoparks in the world. Here, you can enjoy the beauty of the rainbow hills. They are low hills that look like waves and have many different colors, just like a rainbow! There is little grass growing on the land. When you see the hills from above, it’s like you’re looking at rainbows painted on the ground. You may wonder how these colourful hills came to be. Millions of years ago, this area was under a lake. Over time, rivers brought in sand and stones with different kinds of metal elements. These were left in layers (层) on the bottom of the lake. Some layers were red, some yellow, and others turned purple or blue. Later, as the climate became colder and drier, the lake dried up. Then, something amazing happened! The tectonic plates began to rise up and push against each other. The layers of sandstone were lifted higher and higher. Through years of wind, sun, and rain, they formed the colourful hills we see today. June to September is the most wonderful time to visit. The mornings and evenings are cooler than the hot days, giving you the perfect weather to enjoy the sunrises and sunsets. Sunshine after a summer rain will make the colours even brighter and more beautiful. 16. Where is Zhangye Geopark? A. In Sichuan Province. B. In Gansu Province. C. In Yunnan Province. D. In Guangxi Province. 17. Why are there few plants (grass) on the hills? A. Because the land is dry. B. Because animals eat them. C. Because people cut them. D. Because it is too cold all year. 18. How did the layers form the colourful hills we see today? A. Years of wind, sun, and rain. B. People painted the rocks. C. Snow covered the hills. D. The sea rose quickly. 19. When is the best time to visit Zhangye Geopark? A. January to March. B. April to May. C. June to September. D. October to December. 20. What makes the colors brighter according to the passage? A. Heavy snow. B. Sunshine after a summer rain. C. Strong wind at night. D. Crowds of visitors. 【答案】16. B 17. A 18. A 19. C 20.

B You are a nature lover? Then you must visit Zhangye Geopark (地质公园), which lies in Gansu Province, China! It’s recognized by UNESCO as one of the best geoparks in the world. Here, you can enjoy the beauty of the rainbow hills. They are low hills that look like waves and have many different colors, just like a rainbow! There is little grass growing on the land. When you see the hills from above, it’s like you’re looking at rainbows painted on the ground. You may wonder how these colourful hills came to be. Millions of years ago, this area was under a lake. Over time, rivers brought in sand and stones with different kinds of metal elements. These were left in layers (层) on the bottom of the lake. Some layers were red, some yellow, and others turned purple or blue. Later, as the climate became colder and drier, the lake dried up. Then, something amazing happened! The tectonic plates began to rise up and push against each other. The layers of sandstone were lifted higher and higher. Through years of wind, sun, and rain, they formed the colourful hills we see today. June to September is the most wonderful time to visit. The mornings and evenings are cooler than the hot days, giving you the perfect weather to enjoy the sunrises and sunsets. Sunshine after a summer rain will make the colours even brighter and more beautiful. 16. Where is Zhangye Geopark? A. In Sichuan Province. B. In Gansu Province. C. In Yunnan Province. D. In Guangxi Province. 17. Why are there few plants (grass) on the hills? A. Because the land is dry. B. Because animals eat them. C. Because people cut them. D. Because it is too cold all year. 18. How did the layers form the colourful hills we see today? A. Years of wind, sun, and rain. B. People painted the rocks. C. Snow covered the hills. D. The sea rose quickly. 19. When is the best time to visit Zhangye Geopark? A. January to March. B. April to May. C. June to September. D. October to December. 20. What makes the colors brighter according to the passage? A. Heavy snow. B. Sunshine after a summer rain. C. Strong wind at night. D. Crowds of visitors. C Today, many schools in China offer cooking classes to teach students how to cook.
