笔试部分
(共90分)
第Ⅰ卷
一、单项选择(本题共10分,每小题1分)
选择最佳答案。
1. As ________ honest students, you should study hard in your daily life and show your real ability in the exam.
A. a B. an C. /
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:作为诚实的学生,你们应该在日常生活中努力学习,并在考试中展示真实的能力。
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;/表示不填,零冠词。句中“students”为复数名词,此处应用零冠词。
2. Tom and his parents like swimming a lot, but ________ of them is good at skating.
A. neither B. none C. either
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:汤姆和他的父母都很喜欢游泳,但是他们中没有人擅长滑冰。
考查不定代词辨析。neither两者都不;none三者或三者以上都不;either两者之一。根据“Tom and his parents”可知,此处是三者,所以应该用none。故选B。
3. The song is ________ most of the old people. They often sang it when they were young.
A. familiar to B. familiar with C. famous with
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:这首歌对大多数老年人来说很熟悉,他们年轻时经常唱它。
be familiar to为某人所熟悉,主语通常是物;be familiar with某人熟悉某物,主语通常是人;famous with搭配错误。本句主语是The song,指物,表示歌对人熟悉,应用familiar to。
4. When we visit the art museum, the artworks there ________ us with history in a beautiful way.
A. compare B. connect C. communicate
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:当我们参观艺术博物馆时,那里的艺术品以一种美妙的方式将我们与历史联系起来。
compare比较;connect连接;communicate交流。根据“the artworks there ... us with history”可知,艺术品起到了纽带作用,固定搭配connect sb. with sth.意为“把某人与某物联系起来”,符合语境。
5. —It snows again. It’s really unusual to see snow at this time of year.
—Yeah! The weather this year is ________ last year.
A. much colder than it
B. more colder than that
C. a lot colder than that of
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——又下雪了,每年的这个时候看到雪真的很不寻常。——是啊!今年的天气比去年的天气冷得多。
much可以修饰比较级,但it指代同一事物,此处比较的是不同年份的天气,应用that指代同类事物,且than it last year结构不完整;colder本身是比较级,不能再用more修饰,语法错误;a lot可以修饰比较级,that指代不可数名词weather,of表示所属关系,与前面的The weather this year对应,结构正确。故选C。
6. The poor bird ________ two days ago. Its ________ body was found in the yard this morning.
A. died; dying B. dead; died C. died; dead
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:这只可怜的鸟两天前死了。今天早上,它那已无生命体征的尸体在院子里被发现。
第一空根据时间状语two days ago可知用一般过去时,应填died;第二空修饰名词body,表示“已死的、无生命体征的”,应填dead。故选“died; dead”。
7. Whenever she listens to music, she always imagines ________ in a world full of art.
A. living B. to live C. live
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:每当她听音乐时,她总是想象生活在一个充满艺术的世界里。
固定用法imagine doing sth.意为“想象做某事”,后接动名词形式living。
8. —Our trip is over. We need to ________ our things and go to the airport.
—OK, I’ll put them all in the luggage.
A. pack up B. show up C. hang up
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我们的旅行结束了。我们需要收拾好我们的东西去机场。——好的,我会把它们都放进行李箱里。
pack up打包,收拾;show up露面,出现;hang up挂断,悬挂。根据“Our trip is over”和“put them all in the luggage”可知,旅行结束要去机场,需要把东西“打包”好,应填pack up。
9. The beautiful golden ginkgo forest in Kunming attracts (吸引) ________ people to take pictures and enjoy the scenery.
A. five thousands B. thousands of C. five thousand of
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:昆明美丽的金色银杏林吸引了成千上万的人来拍照和欣赏风景
thousand前有具体数字时用单数形式,不加of;前无具体数字时用复数形式,加of,表示“成千上万的”,因此B项thousands of是正确表达。
10. Dear boys and girls, don’t be nervous. ________ you write carefully, you will finish the paper perfectly.
A. As soon as B. As long as C. As far as
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:亲爱的孩子们,别紧张。只要你们认真书写,你们就能完美地完成试卷。
As soon as一……就……,引导时间状语从句;As long as只要,引导条件状语从句;As far as就……而言/和……一样远。根据“...you write carefully, you will finish the paper perfectly.”可知,前后句是条件关系,意为“只要……就……”,所以用As long as引导条件状语从句。

【11题详解】
句意:我们一年级时相识,那时她搬到了我住的社区。
根据前文“We met in the first grade”及后文“to my neighborhood”可知,此处介绍作者与莉莉相识的原因,即莉莉搬到了作者所在的社区。move意为“搬家”,move to意为“搬到……”,文章叙述过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时。
【12题详解】
句意:一个寒冷的冬天下午,我忘记带伞,站在学校门口,感到很孤独。
根据前文“I forgot to bring my umbrella”及后文“Just then, Lily ran over with her blue umbrella”可知,作者因忘记带伞而独自站在学校门口,感到孤独。feel意为“感觉”,此处应用现在分词feeling作伴随状语,表示站在校门口时的心理状态。
【13题详解】
句意:“我们一起撑伞吧!”她热情地说道。
根据前文“Lily ran over with her blue umbrella”及“Let's share it!”可知,莉莉看到作者没有带伞,主动提出一起撑伞,体现了她的热情和友善。warmly意为“热情地,亲切地”,为副词,修饰动词said,符合语境。
【14题详解】
句意:在那把小伞下,我们冒雨走着,谈论着我们最喜欢的动画片。
根据前文“we walked through the rain”及后文“our favorite cartoon”可知,此处描述作者与莉莉一起撑伞回家时聊天的情景。talk about意为“谈论”,根据and连接并列谓语可知,此处应与walked保持时态一致,应用一般过去时。
【15题详解】
句意:上学期数学考试不及格时,我非常沮丧,甚至想要放弃自己。
根据前文“When I failed my math exam last term”及“I felt so upset”可知,作者因数学考试失利而感到沮丧,甚至对自己失去了信心。give up on oneself意为“对自己失去信心,放弃自己”,主语为I,应用反身代词myself。
【16题详解】
句意:她说了一些温暖的话来鼓励我。
根据前文“She helped me review difficult formulas and encouraged me to keep practicing”及后文“to cheer me up”可知,莉莉不仅帮助作者复习数学公式,还通过温暖的话语给予鼓励。something warm意为“一些温暖的话语”,形容词修饰复合不定代词时应后置。
【17题详解】
句意:当我们遇到困难时,真正的朋友能够保护我们免受悲伤情绪的困扰。
根据前文莉莉在作者考试失利后给予帮助和鼓励可知,此处强调真正的朋友能够帮助我们摆脱负面情绪。protect sb. from sth.意为“保护某人免受某事物的伤害”,是固定搭配。
【18题详解】
句意:如果我们共同面对困难,困难就并不可怕。
根据前文莉莉帮助作者复习数学,以及后文“we face them together”可知,此处强调共同面对困难是克服恐惧的条件。if意为“如果”,引导条件状语从句,符合语境。
【19题详解】
句意:多亏了她,我终于在下一次数学考试中取得了好成绩。
根据前文“She helped me review difficult formulas and encouraged me to keep practicing”及后文“I couldn’t have done it without the help of her”可知,作者取得好成绩离不开莉莉的帮助。Thanks to her意为“多亏了她”,表示取得好成绩的原因,符合语境。
【20题详解】
句意:友谊在我们失落时给予我们希望,并使我们的生活更加丰富多彩。
根据前文“Friendship gives us hope when we are down”及全文描述莉莉带给作者的帮助与快乐可知,此处强调友谊能够让生活变得更加美好。colorful意为“丰富多彩的”,其比较级为more colorful;make sth. + adj.意为“使某物……”,符合语境。

Our earth has two very cold areas at its ends: the Arctic and the Antarctic (南极地区). The Arctic is the area around the North Pole, while the Antarctic is the area around the South Pole. They have a lot in common, but they are also different in many ways.
The two places are very cold and covered with ice. Much of the ice there never melts. Heavy snowstorms are common in both places.
One big difference is what is under the ice. Water is under most of the ice in the Arctic. However, land is under most of the ice in the Antarctic. Antarctica is a large continent (大陆). It has mountains, valleys and plains (山谷和平原). They are covered with ice.
The Arctic is warmer than the Antarctic. Plants grow in the Arctic in summer. The Antarctic has almost no plants because it is too cold. Only a few small plants grow there each summer. Mosses can grow at each polar area (极地).
Animals can also live in both places. Polar bears, for example, live in the Arctic. So do some foxes and wolves. Most animals cannot live in Antarctica because it is too cold. However, penguins can live there. Some animals, such as whales, can live in both places.
Many people live in the Arctic. There are towns and small cities in the land areas. However, the Antarctic is so cold that nobody can live there for long. Scientists who study the continent only stay there while they are working. They live in special buildings and don’t spend much time outside.

The world is a beautiful place in our eyes. But does it look the same through the eyes of animals?
Dogs can’t see as many colors as we can. They can see blues, browns and yellows. They have fewer color detecting cells (色彩感知细胞) than humans do.
Spiders have eight pairs of eyes. They can see more colors than humans. They can see ultraviolet light (紫外线). So they see things clearer than we do. Mice can move one eye in different directions while the other eye stops moving. It is to see their enemies (敌人) better. They can’t see many colors. It’s not necessary because they mainly come out at night. They are good at seeing bright light.
Horses have eyes on either side of their heads. So they see wider than humans. They have a blind spot (盲点) in front of their nose. They can’t see as many colors as humans do. They can see greens and blues, but most of the time they see grays.

Lily had to stay at home all day because she broke her leg last week. She was bored with her life as she couldn’t go to the park or play with her dog. Every day, she just looked out of her window at the gray street outside.
One Wednesday in April, a boy named Jack passed Lily’s window by bike and smiled brightly at her. The smile was like sunshine suddenly shining into the room.
“Dad,” said Jack. “Why is the girl sitting in front of the window, looking sad?”
“Oh, that’s Lily. Her leg was hurt badly, poor girl.” said Jack’s dad.
Jack thought of Lily’s sad face and asked his dad if he could buy her a toy to make her happy. His dad said, “Kindness doesn’t mean money. You can do something else.” So Jack drew a butterfly. He came back with the picture the next morning. Lily was surprised and happy. She told Jack about how much she missed going outside. The picture made Lily’s room feel lively, and she thought, “What Jack brought is not only a drawing, but also hope.”
Little did they know, this small act of kindness would start a beautiful friendship that would make both of their lives brighter.

Our earth has two very cold areas at its ends: the Arctic and the Antarctic (南极地区). The Arctic is the area around the North Pole, while the Antarctic is the area around the South Pole. They have a lot in common, but they are also different in many ways.
The two places are very cold and covered with ice. Much of the ice there never melts. Heavy snowstorms are common in both places.
One big difference is what is under the ice. Water is under most of the ice in the Arctic. However, land is under most of the ice in the Antarctic. Antarctica is a large continent (大陆). It has mountains, valleys and plains (山谷和平原). They are covered with ice.
The Arctic is warmer than the Antarctic. Plants grow in the Arctic in summer. The Antarctic has almost no plants because it is too cold. Only a few small plants grow there each summer. Mosses can grow at each polar area (极地).
Animals can also live in both places. Polar bears, for example, live in the Arctic. So do some foxes and wolves. Most animals cannot live in Antarctica because it is too cold. However, penguins can live there. Some animals, such as whales, can live in both places.
Many people live in the Arctic. There are towns and small cities in the land areas. However, the Antarctic is so cold that nobody can live there for long. Scientists who study the continent only stay there while they are working. They live in special buildings and don’t spend much time outside.
根据短文内容选择最佳答案。

A. stays icy B. becomes water C. gets hard

Mice can move one eye in different directions while the other eye stops moving. It is to see their enemies (敌人) better. They can’t see many colors. It’s not necessary because they mainly come out at night. They are good at seeing bright light.
Horses have eyes on either side of their heads. So they see wider than humans. They have a blind spot (盲点) in front of their nose. They can’t see as many colors as humans do. They can see greens and blues, but most of the time they see grays.

Lily had to stay at home all day because she broke her leg last week. She was bored with her life as she couldn’t go to the park or play with her dog. Every day, she just looked out of her window at the gray street outside.
One Wednesday in April, a boy named Jack passed Lily’s window by bike and smiled brightly at her. The smile was like sunshine suddenly shining into the room.
“Dad,” said Jack. “Why is the girl sitting in front of the window, looking sad?”
“Oh, that’s Lily. Her leg was hurt badly, poor girl.” said Jack’s dad.
Jack thought of Lily’s sad face and asked his dad if he could buy her a toy to make her happy. His dad said, “Kindness doesn’t mean money. You can do something else.” So Jack drew a butterfly. He came back with the picture the next morning. Lily was surprised and happy. She told Jack about how much she missed going outside. The picture made Lily’s room feel lively, and she thought, “What Jack brought is not only a drawing, but also hope.”
Little did they know, this small act of kindness would start a beautiful friendship that would make both of their lives brighter.
