We can see it in almost all windows. Although glass is transparent (透明的), it has lots of disadvantages. It is heavy and breaks easily. What’s more, glass making creates a lot of pollution. In recent years, scientists have been trying to find something to replace glass. Some American scientists used wood from the balsa tree which grows in South and Central America. First, they put the wood in an oxidizing bath (氧化浴) to take off its color. Then with the help of a synthetic polymer (合成聚合物), they created a product that was almost transparent. It is transparent wood. Transparent wood made from balsa wood is much stronger than glass and doesn’t break easily. So the American scientists thought it is much safer than glass. Also, it is lighter than glass, which makes it easier to carry. More importantly, producing transparent wood means not only less cost, but also less pollution. The balsa tree is one of the fastest-growing trees on Earth. So people can get enough balsa wood to produce transparent wood. Maybe windows made from transparent wood will be seen everywhere in the near future. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 6. How does the writer lead in the topic? A. By telling a story about glass. B.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍造纸术的发展，对比纸张与数字工具在现代生活、太空及教育中的应用，指出两者各有优势，应平衡使用获最佳效果。 【21题详解】 句意：在纸被发明之前，人们写在竹子、丝绸或石头上。 根据“Papermaking is one of the greatest inventions”及下文“people wrote on bamboo...”可知，此处指在“纸”发明之前，paper“纸”符合语境。printing“印刷术”，ink“墨水”，plastic“塑料”，不符合造纸术主题。 【22题详解】 句意：然而，这些材料要么太重，要么太贵而不能被广泛使用。 根据“too heavy or too...”及“widely used”可知，阻碍广泛使用的因素通常是重或“贵”，expensive“贵重的”符合语境。cheap“便宜的”，private“私人的”，suitable“合适的”，不符合语境。 【23题详解】 句意：在东汉，蔡伦改进了造纸术。 根据上文“During the Western Han Dynasty, an early kind of paper appeared”可知，西汉已有纸，蔡伦是“改进”了技术，improved“改进”符合语境。produced“生产”，learned“学习”，invented“发明”，不符合语境。 【24题详解】 句意：新的造纸术迅速传播，传到了阿拉伯国家然后到欧洲。 根据“travelling to Arab countries and then to Europe”可知，技术是在“传播”，spread“传播”符合语境。failed“失败”，disappeared“消失”，survived“幸存”，与travelled语境不符。 【25题详解】 句意：纸的诞生后来有助于印刷术的发明。 根据“contributed to the invention of printing”可知，是纸的“出现/诞生”促进了印刷术，birth“诞生”符合语境。price“价格”，name“名字”，weight“重量”，与促进发明无直接逻辑联系。 【26题详解】 句意：有了纸和印刷术，书籍可以被更迅速和广泛地生产。 根据“printing”及“widely”可知，印刷术提高了效率，生产更“迅速”，rapidly“迅速地”符合语境。difficultly“困难地”，completely“完全地”，slowly“缓慢地”，不符合语境。 【27题详解】 句意：今天，纸仍然很重要，但我们也使用数字工具。 根据“but we use digital tools as well”及下文“still widely used”可知，纸依然“重要”，important“重要的”符合语境。useless“无用的”，special“特别的”，modern“现代的”，不符合对比语境。 【28题详解】 句意：例如，我们可以把文件存储在电脑上并通过电子邮件发送。 根据“on computers and send them by email”可知，电脑存储和邮件发送的是“文件”，files“文件”符合语境。wheels“轮子”，bags“书包”，gifts“礼物”，不符合数字工具操作对象。 【29题详解】 句意：然而，纸仍然被人们在日常生活中广泛使用，如印刷、写作和阅读。 根据“printing, writing, and...”可知，此处列举纸的用途，纸用于“阅读”，reading“阅读”符合语境。shopping“购物”，exercising“锻炼”，listening“听”，不是纸的主要功能。 【30题详解】 句意：国际空间站上的宇航员需要纸张，但携带大量纸进入太空是不实际的。 根据“carry much into space”及太空运输成本可知，携带大量纸不“实际”，practical“实际的”符合语境。weightless“失重的”，crazy“疯狂的”，imaginative“富有想象力的”，不符合逻辑判断。 【31题详解】 句意：所以他们使用可以重复使用的特殊工具。 根据上文“not practical to carry much”可知，前后是因果关系，So“因此”符合语境。But“但是”，Or“或者”，Because“因为”，均不符。 【32题详解】 句意：一些老师要求学生在在线小组项目中相互合作。 根据“with each other on online group projects”可知，小组项目需要“合作”，cooperate“合作”符合语境。require“要求”，cancel“取消”，publish“出版”，不符合小组项目语境。 【33题详解】 句意：他们认为这将帮助学生更好地培养团队合作技能。 根据“teamwork skills”可知，技能需要“培养/发展”，develop“发展/培养”符合语境。provide“提供”，discuss“讨论”，inspire“鼓舞”，skills 搭配不当或语意不通。 【34题详解】 句意：两者各有其优势。 根据“both paper and digital tools will exist”及“choose the right tool”可知，两者共存是因为各有“优势”，advantages“优势”符合语境。goals“目标”，risks“风险”，customers“顾客”，不符合共存理由。 【35题详解】 句意：这种平衡的方式肯定会带来学习和生活中的最佳结果。 根据“the best results”可知，正确的方式会“带来”好结果，lead to“导致”符合语境。give up“放弃”，put on“穿上”，look for“寻找”，与results 搭配不当或语意相反。 四、语篇填空（15小题，每小1分，共15分） 第一节 阅读短文，从方框中选择适当的词并用其正确形式填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每词限填一词，每词限用一次。 if, connect, fall, by, have, strong, efficiently, I, problem, learn Dear Future Me, Right now, I’m 15 and in Grade 9.

And there is a natural park by the river. Many visitors come to visit it every year. A: Really? Can I go with you when you go back next time? B: _________55_________. And I can be your guide. You will love my hometown. 【答案】51. Where have you been/... 52. No, I don’t/... 53. What’s the biggest change in your hometown/... 54. What is it like now/... 55. Of course/... 【解析】 【导语】本文主要是Liu Mei和Jane关于Liu Mei家乡变化的对话。 【51题详解】 根据B的回答“I went back to my hometown.”可知，A此处是在询问对方这一周的去向，结合前文两人一周未见的语境，用“Where have you been/...”衔接，能自然引出B后续的回乡经历。 【52题详解】 根据后文“这是五年前搬到这里后我第一次回去”的补充说明，可知B并不经常回乡，用“No, I don’t/...”回应A的“你经常回故乡吗”的提问，既符合事实，也为后续第一次返乡看到巨变的情节埋下铺垫。 【53题详解】 B已经提到家乡人们的生活条件大幅改善，A接下来顺着对话逻辑，进一步聚焦询问最突出的变化，用“What’s the biggest change in your hometown/...”衔接，精准引出B后文关于小镇河流的具体描述。 【54题详解】 A听完B说河流过去被污水和垃圾覆盖的糟糕状况后，自然会好奇现在的河流变成了什么样子，用“What is it like now/...”提问，能顺畅过渡到B对如今清澈河流与河畔公园的介绍。 【55题详解】 A提出下次想和B一起回故乡的请求，B后文还主动提出可以当向导，用“Of course/...”回应，既爽快答应了邀约，也和后续热情邀请对方体验家乡的内容形成呼应。 六、书面表达（20分） 56. 假定你是李华，你校正在开展“Go Green校园环保行动月”活动。校英文报“Green Life”专栏正在征集宣传稿呼吁同学们践行绿色低碳生活，共建美丽校园。请根据提示写一篇短文投稿。 写作提示：1.列举校园里常见的不环保行为（如浪费水电，乱扔垃圾等）； 2.提出至少三条切实可行的环保建议； 3.发出倡议，表达对绿色校园的期待。 写作要求：1.文中须包含以上写作提示中的所有信息，可适当发挥： 2.文中不得出现真实姓名和学校名称； 3.词数100左右（文章已给出内容不计入总词数）。 Our school is holding a “Go Green” environmental protection month. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 例文 Our school is holding a “Go Green” environmental protection month.

We can see it in almost all windows. Although glass is transparent (透明的), it has lots of disadvantages. It is heavy and breaks easily. What’s more, glass making creates a lot of pollution. In recent years, scientists have been trying to find something to replace glass. Some American scientists used wood from the balsa tree which grows in South and Central America. First, they put the wood in an oxidizing bath (氧化浴) to take off its color. Then with the help of a synthetic polymer (合成聚合物), they created a product that was almost transparent. It is transparent wood. Transparent wood made from balsa wood is much stronger than glass and doesn’t break easily. So the American scientists thought it is much safer than glass. Also, it is lighter than glass, which makes it easier to carry. More importantly, producing transparent wood means not only less cost, but also less pollution. The balsa tree is one of the fastest-growing trees on Earth. So people can get enough balsa wood to produce transparent wood. Maybe windows made from transparent wood will be seen everywhere in the near future. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 6. How does the writer lead in the topic? A. By telling a story about glass. B.

C Long long ago, an old man lived in a small village near a desert with his three sons. He had 17 camels. One day, he died. In his will (遗嘱), the eldest son would own half of the 17 camels, the middle one would get one third and the youngest one would get one ninth. All of them were very surprised to read the will. They spent several days thinking how to divide 17 camels, but none could find the answer. They finally took this problem to the wise man in their village. The wise man quickly found a way. He asked them to bring all 17 camels to a spacious place. Then he added one of his own camels and made the number of the camels become 18. According to the will, the first son should get half of the camels. It came to (共计) 18/2—9 camels! The second son was given one third of the total camels in his father’s will. It came to 18/3—6 camels. The third son got one ninth of the camels. It came to 18/9—2 camels. Totally there were 9 + 6 + 2 camels, which came to 17 camels. The camel brought by the wise man was taken back. The wise man solved this problem wisely with his intelligence. Intelligence is nothing but finding common ground to solve a problem. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 11. Where did the old man live? A. On a farm. B. Near a desert. C. In a small town. D. In a big city. 12.

Why did the wise man add a camel? A. To find a common ground. B. To show his intelligence. C. To make the number of camels bigger. D. To make the sons clever. 15. What does the story mainly tell us?
