The loud ____13____ filled the room and made them feel very happy. The next morning, ____14____, their happiness disappeared. Someone had left a note under their door during the night. One of their neighbors had written to complain about the sound of the piano. Dario’s mother asked the building superintendent (管理员) if he knew anything about it. But he said that they were all ____15____ people and he couldn’t imagine any of them had done that. Later that morning, Dario suggested that they should write a letter to their neighbors and apologize for their playing. “Maybe we could go and visit everyone in person.” his mother said. “What if we invited them to come here to a concert instead?” Dario asked. Over the next few days, they sent out invitations and prepared desserts for their guests. They decorated the apartment with streamers (彩带) and party lights. Finally, the day of the party arrived. Some guests brought presents. Others brought flowers. Some even brought desserts to share. One woman, Mrs. Gilbert, ____16____ Dario’s mother with a book of piano music by Chopin. “I heard you playing the other night,” she said. “The sounds woke me out of bed. I ____17____ that you might play like that every night. So I wrote a short note.

Maybe we should play some quieter music at night.” “I like what you play! Just not so loud at night.” Mrs. Gilbert said and pointed to the book she had given them. “These songs are not such loud music.” “These songs are beautiful music,” Dario’s mother said. “We will be happy to play them in the evening.” “And we won’t play so loud or late!” Dario said. He was already looking forward to ____19____ the new music. More than that, however, he was happy to see the big smile on his mother’s face.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述Dario和妈妈搬到新家弹钢琴，琴声打扰了邻居，之后他们邀请邻居来家中参加音乐会化解矛盾，最终收获邻里温情的故事。 【13题详解】 句意：响亮的音乐充满房间，使他们感到非常开心。 根据原文“They played jazz music to celebrate their new home.”，此处表达他们弹奏爵士乐庆祝新家，欢快的乐声填满屋子，应用music“音乐”。voice“嗓音”，一般指人的说话声；noise“噪音”，多指让人反感的声音；cry“哭声”，和弹奏钢琴庆祝的场景不匹配。 【14题详解】 句意：第二天早上，然而，他们的快乐消失了。 根据原文“Someone had left a note under their door during the night.”，此处表达前一晚还十分开心，第二天就收到投诉，前后语义转折，应用however“然而”。therefore“因此”，表因果；otherwise“否则”，表假设；instead“代替”，表替换，都不能表达转折含义。 【15题详解】 句意：但是他说他们都是友善的人，他无法想象他们中的任何人会做这件事。 根据原文“he couldn’t imagine any of them had done that.”，此处表达管理员认为邻居品性很好，想不到有人会留下投诉纸条，应用nice“友善的”。proud“骄傲的”，rich“富有的”，lucky“幸运的”，这几个词和管理员想表达邻居品性好的语义无关。 【16题详解】 句意：一位女士，Gilbert夫人，赠送Dario的妈妈一本肖邦钢琴曲集。 根据原文聚会的场景，此处表达夫人向Dario妈妈赠送琴谱，固定搭配present sb. with sth.，应用presented“赠送”。treated“对待、款待”，侧重招待；helped“帮助”，侧重提供协助；served“服务”，多用于服务顾客，没有赠送礼品的意思。 【17题详解】 句意：我担心你可能每晚都像这样弹奏，所以我写了一张简短的便条。 根据原文“The sounds woke me out of bed.”，此处表达琴声吵醒了她，她担心长期被打扰才写下便条，应用worried“担心”。promised“承诺”，admitted“承认”，agreed“同意”，代入句子，和邻居写便条的缘由不符。 【18题详解】 句意：我们弹琴的时候没有意识到已经那么晚了。 根据原文“I think maybe we owe you an apology.”，此处表达妈妈向邻居致歉，说明当时没有发觉时间很晚，应用realize“意识到”。remember“记得”，指回想往事；understand“理解”，指弄懂道理；accept“接受”，指接纳事物，都表达不出当时没有发觉时间的含义。 【19题详解】 句意：他已经期待练习这些新曲子了。 根据原文“These songs are not such loud music.”，此处表达拿到新乐谱之后，想要弹奏练习，应用practicing“练习”。changing“改变”，recording“录制”，writing“书写”，和拿到新乐谱之后的行为不匹配。 【20题详解】 句意：这给了他一种温暖的感觉，使他终于觉得他们像在家一样。 根据原文邻里和睦相处的情节，此处表达矛盾化解之后内心感受到温情，应用warmth“温暖”。equality“平等”，freedom“自由”，comfort“舒适”，多指身体上的安逸，体现不出邻里和睦带来的温情感受。 六、阅读理解（共26分，每小题2分） （一） 下面是四个旅游景点的图片及介绍，请根据人物需求或喜好匹配最适合的景点，并将景点所对应的A、B、C、D选项填在相应位置上。其中一个选项为多余选项。 A Mountain Forest You can walk along forest paths, climb small hills and watch different kinds of birds.

Her mom spoke quickly, “Shh... honey, I am busy with an important talk. I will see it later.” She frowned (皱眉) and turned to her dad. “Dad, see what I have done,” Chris said aloud in a thrilling voice. Her dad turned around while putting on his coat, and showed his thumbs up! Immediately, blowing her two cheeks, Chris complained, “Dad, you haven’t seen it yet.” He smiled at her saying, “No time, baby. I will see it later.” Her brother was only two years older than her. He was always busy in his own dream land! She didn’t feel like wasting her time trying to show him the painting. Chris stood there for a few seconds, and then stormed off to her own bedroom. She threw the paper on the table, banged the door and dropped herself on her bed. Looking up to the ceiling, she wove her anger net. “Why is everybody so busy?” As if every single person on this earth is busy in their own work and no one has time to share a single moment with her! Her own family members were also no exception. When her mom called her for dinner, she came late on purpose. She kept silent, and didn’t look at anyone. Her mom was surprised to see the unusual behavior. Softly she asked, “Honey, are you OK? Did I do something wrong?” Chris was so angry that she ran away to her room. The next day, when Chris came back home, she straight away went to her bedroom. When she turned on the light, she surprisingly found her oil painting was carefully framed and put up on the wall. Just below the painting, it was written “We are so proud of you Chris, our little angel!” Chris was so happy that she hugged her mom tightly. Her mom said, “Honey! I am so sorry, dear! We would never say ‘no time’ for anything in the future, whether big or small. Got it?” She kissed her mom on the cheek and said, “Yes, mama, got it. You are my sweet mom!” 24. How did Chris feel when both her parents had no time to look at her painting? A. Angry. B. Relaxed. C. Scared. D. Excited. 25. What did Chris see when she turned on the light the next day? A. A little angel in the room. B. Her painting on the wall. C. A small gift in the box. D. Some paper on the floor. 26. Chris’s story mainly tells us that _______. A. teenagers are hard to get along with B. people are too busy to care about themselves C. teenagers and parents can’t understand each other D. people shouldn’t say “no time” to their beloved ones 【答案】24. A 25. B 26. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了女孩Chris因家人忙碌无暇欣赏她的画作而感到生气，后来妈妈通过装裱画作并道歉弥补了过失，故事揭示了家人之间不应以忙碌为借口忽视彼此的核心主题。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第5段“She threw the paper on the table, banged the door and dropped herself on her bed. Looking up to the ceiling, she wove her anger net.”可知，Chris摔门、扔纸以及心中充满愤怒的行为表现，说明她当时感到非常生气。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第7段“When she turned on the light, she surprisingly found her oil painting was carefully framed and put up on the wall.”可知，Chris第二天开灯时看到了被装裱好挂在墙上的油画。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段妈妈说的话“We would never say ‘no time’ for anything in the future, whether big or small.”可知，文章主要通过这个故事告诉人们不应该对挚爱的人说“没时间”，而应珍惜相处的时光。 C Many cultures have stories of talking trees that give advice as well as warnings to people. New research has found something amazing: it appears that plants can communicate after all. It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals(化学物质) to communicate with each other. This happens when a plant, say a bean plant, gets attacked by insects(昆虫). The plant sends out a small number of chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help: “I’m being attacked!” When another bean plant discovers this, it starts to send out its own, different chemicals. Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others attract insects—the wasps! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the bean plants. Scientists hope to learn more about his plant warning system, so that we can use it to grow crops in a better way. More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People can’t hear these sounds, but plants are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots(根). They also “listen” to the noises from other plants. A chilli plant can tell if a neighbouring plant is helpful, or unfriendly. Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water. Most surprisingly of all, plants have an amazing system of communication that can connect nearly every plant in a forest. Scientists call this system the “wood wide web”. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use. The wood wide web is connected underground by fungi(菌类). This fungi network connects the roots of different plants to each other. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other. But just like our own Internet, the wood wide web has its own problems. Plants can steal food from each other, or attack other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a “firewall” to help prevent these attacks. Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other. Who knows? Maybe one day we will know enough about plant communication to be able to “talk” with them ourselves. 27. What do bean plants probably do when they get attacked by insects? A. They make noises with their leaves. B. They drive wasps to kill the insects. C. They give out chemicals to call for help. D. They fight back directly with other bean plants. 28. What do we know about the “wood wide web”? A. It has its own firewall to stop attacks. B. It shares information with insects often. C. It is a bit like the Internet we use today. D. It produces food through fungi and roots. 29. What could be the best title of the passage? A. The Secret Language of Plants B. The Benefits of Plants’ Talking C. Why do Plants Talk with Each Other? D. How do Plants Communicate with People? 【答案】27. C 28. C 29. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了植物也会通过不同的方式进行交流，科学家们对此致力研究。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The plant sends out a small number of chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help”可知，当豆类植物受到昆虫攻击时，它们可能会散发化学物质来呼救，故选C。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Scientists call this system the “wood wide web”. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use.”可知，“wood wide web”有点像我们今天使用的互联网，故选C。 【29题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“Many cultures have stories of talking trees that give advice as well as warnings to people. New research has found something amazing: it appears that plants can communicate after all.”以及整个文章的理解可知，本文主要是介绍植物也会通过不同的方式进行交流，故选A。 D Motivated (有内驱力的 ) or Overachieving? Everyone has the occasional classmate who hands in his work ahead of time with really beautiful handwriting. Some teachers may cheerfully get the homework by saying "Of course you did it early.I'm sure you've done a good job!" Some teachers may feel annoyed because "The deadline is not until next Friday." Behind this student's back are tons of whispers from his classmates, "Ugh, he is such an overachiever and it's so annoying ..." If you ask the same student to explain his behavior, he probably says that he is simply "motivated". Such students refuse to call themselves overachievers but prefer "motivated" instead. They want to shy away from the unpleasant term "overachiever" but choose to embrace the word "motivated" . Why is the term "overachiever" used as an insult (侮辱 )? Do we not all work hard to achieve our goals? Why does the "motivated" student not proudly call himself an "overachiever" ? In my personal experience, being called an overachiever in front of my classmates is not pleasant at all. The word is often connected with an unkind smile or sometimes a hint ofjealousy (嫉妒 )."Overachiever" carries the implied (暗指的 ) sense which "over" lends it - you have done too much and you have gone too far. Anyway, it is beyond the proper degree and just annoying to those students who refuse to put in the effort themselves and get unhappy with you for doing so. A student would rather think of himself as an excellent student and it is motivation that drives him to do his best. What is the implied meaning of "motivated" ? Connected with positive words like willpower, spirit and determination, the "motivated" student would appear to be competing in an event of the brain Olympics. Although there are differences in their implications, the student who calls himself "motivated" could actually be a secret overachiever, going over the top for all his work; while the "overachiever" is nothing more than a motivated student, driven by the simple desire to do well and willing to put in time and effort. In fact, the choice lies within the student: to overachieve or not to overachieve; to find the motivation to do well and be driven by it, or to sit back and blame others for overachieving to hide his inability to achieve. 30. According to the passage, overachievers A. are popular with their classmates B. hand in homework ahead of time C. are much loved by their teachers D. look down on others for being slow 31. The word "embrace" in Paragraph 2 probably means "_ ". A. understand B. explain C. doubt D. accept 32. What can we learn from the passage? A. Teachers expect students to benefit from their extra work. B. Students compete with each other to become overachievers. C. Classmates may laugh at overachievers to hide their inability to achieve. D. The writer has some pleasant experiences of being called an overachiever. 33. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. students shouldn't be encouraged to be overachievers B. students without motivation will become overachievers C. motivated students make better progress than overachievers D. motivated students have something in common with overachievers 【答案】30. B 31. D 32. C 33. D 【解析】 【分析】本文主要阐述了“有内驱动力”和“智力超群”二者的区别和联系。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段第一句Everyone has the occasional classmate who hands in his work ahead of time with really beautiful handwriting.和第一段最后一句Behind this student's back are tons of whispers from his classmates, "Ugh, he is such an overachiever and it's so annoying .知选B。 【31题详解】 推断题。根据第二段第二句： Such students refuse to call themselves overachievers but prefer "motivated" instead. 这些学生拒绝称自己为成绩优秀者，但更喜欢"motivated"。可推断处They want to shy away from the unpleasant term "overachiever" but choose to embrace the word "motivated" .他们想回避这个不愉快的词"overachiever"而接受"motivated"这个词。故选D 【32题详解】 推理判断题。从这一段中我们学到了什么？A. Teachers expect students to benefit from their extra work. 教师期望学生从额外的工作中获益。与文章大意不符； B. Students compete with each other to become overachievers. 学生互相竞争，成为优胜者。与文章大意不符； C. Classmates may laugh at overachievers to hide their inability to achieve. 同学们可能嘲笑那些成绩超群的人，掩盖他们无法实现的目标。与第一段最后一句意思相符，故选C D. 作者有一些被称为超越者的愉快经历。文章中并未提及，故可排除D 【33题详解】 主旨大意题。文章最后一段表明作者的观点：尽管这两种类型的学生表面有所不同，但实际上是有共同之处的。故选D 七、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共10分，47-49题每题2分，50题4分） Grow Your Own Garden Gardens come in all shapes and sizes. Starting a new one might seem difficult. But with a little planning and a few tips, you’ll grow your own garden easily. Grow what you love in your own garden. This way, you’ll be sure to enjoy the process. You can grow vegetables. If you don’t like vegetables, you can grow fruits, flowers and succulents (多肉植物). Once you decide what kind of garden you’d like to start, you’ll need to plan a few things before getting to work. First, choose a location. Find a proper place that has good sunlight. Maybe you live in an apartment and don’t have a yard. That’s not a problem! You can start a garden in containers (容器) or most plastic bottles. You can even grow a garden in old rain boots. Next, pick the right soil. This is important for a garden. An expert at a gardening store can advise you on the best soil for your garden. After you have the correct soil, choose your plants. Will you start with seeds or seedlings (幼苗)? Growing from seeds is often less expensive. And it’s more satisfying, because you get to watch the growth from seed to plant. But growing from seedlings is easier. There’s a better chance for your plant to grow big enough. If you are wondering the best time to plant your own garden, plant right before the start of the growing season so that the plants can grow better. If you’re a new gardener, start small. Because the larger the garden is, the greater the losses can be when things go wrong. Once you know how to plant a garden, you’ll be able to plant season after season and try to grow new things. Soon your plants will produce fruits and vegetables. Share flowers with neighbors to brighten their day, or bring some vegetables to a family that’s going through a hard time. As I like to say, “Be a kind person!” 34. What can you grow in your own garden? ________________________________________________________________________ 35. Who can advise you on the best soil for your garden? ________________________________________________________________________ 36. When is the best time to plant your own garden? ________________________________________________________________________ 37. Would you like to start your own garden? Why or why not? (at least 2 reasons.) ________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】34. I can grow what I love/I can grow vegetables/fruits/flowers/succulents. 35. An expert at a gardening store. 36. Right before the start of the growing season. 37. Yes, I’d love to. First, I can enjoy the fun of watching plants grow and get fresh, safe produce from my own garden.

Her mom spoke quickly, “Shh... honey, I am busy with an important talk. I will see it later.” She frowned (皱眉) and turned to her dad. “Dad, see what I have done,” Chris said aloud in a thrilling voice. Her dad turned around while putting on his coat, and showed his thumbs up! Immediately, blowing her two cheeks, Chris complained, “Dad, you haven’t seen it yet.” He smiled at her saying, “No time, baby. I will see it later.” Her brother was only two years older than her. He was always busy in his own dream land! She didn’t feel like wasting her time trying to show him the painting. Chris stood there for a few seconds, and then stormed off to her own bedroom. She threw the paper on the table, banged the door and dropped herself on her bed. Looking up to the ceiling, she wove her anger net. “Why is everybody so busy?” As if every single person on this earth is busy in their own work and no one has time to share a single moment with her! Her own family members were also no exception. When her mom called her for dinner, she came late on purpose. She kept silent, and didn’t look at anyone. Her mom was surprised to see the unusual behavior. Softly she asked, “Honey, are you OK? Did I do something wrong?” Chris was so angry that she ran away to her room. The next day, when Chris came back home, she straight away went to her bedroom. When she turned on the light, she surprisingly found her oil painting was carefully framed and put up on the wall. Just below the painting, it was written “We are so proud of you Chris, our little angel!” Chris was so happy that she hugged her mom tightly. Her mom said, “Honey! I am so sorry, dear! We would never say ‘no time’ for anything in the future, whether big or small. Got it?” She kissed her mom on the cheek and said, “Yes, mama, got it. You are my sweet mom!” 24. How did Chris feel when both her parents had no time to look at her painting? A. Angry. B. Relaxed. C. Scared. D. Excited. 25. What did Chris see when she turned on the light the next day? A. A little angel in the room. B. Her painting on the wall. C. A small gift in the box. D. Some paper on the floor. 26. Chris’s story mainly tells us that _______. A. teenagers are hard to get along with B. people are too busy to care about themselves C. teenagers and parents can’t understand each other D. people shouldn’t say “no time” to their beloved ones C Many cultures have stories of talking trees that give advice as well as warnings to people. New research has found something amazing: it appears that plants can communicate after all. It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals(化学物质) to communicate with each other. This happens when a plant, say a bean plant, gets attacked by insects(昆虫). The plant sends out a small number of chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help: “I’m being attacked!” When another bean plant discovers this, it starts to send out its own, different chemicals. Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others attract insects—the wasps! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the bean plants. Scientists hope to learn more about his plant warning system, so that we can use it to grow crops in a better way. More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People can’t hear these sounds, but plants are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots(根). They also “listen” to the noises from other plants. A chilli plant can tell if a neighbouring plant is helpful, or unfriendly. Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water. Most surprisingly of all, plants have an amazing system of communication that can connect nearly every plant in a forest. Scientists call this system the “wood wide web”. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use. The wood wide web is connected underground by fungi(菌类). This fungi network connects the roots of different plants to each other. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other. But just like our own Internet, the wood wide web has its own problems. Plants can steal food from each other, or attack other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a “firewall” to help prevent these attacks. Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other. Who knows? Maybe one day we will know enough about plant communication to be able to “talk” with them ourselves. 27. What do bean plants probably do when they get attacked by insects? A. They make noises with their leaves. B. They drive wasps to kill the insects. C. They give out chemicals to call for help. D. They fight back directly with other bean plants. 28. What do we know about the “wood wide web”? A. It has its own firewall to stop attacks. B. It shares information with insects often. C. It is a bit like the Internet we use today. D. It produces food through fungi and roots. 29. What could be the best title of the passage? A. The Secret Language of Plants B. The Benefits of Plants’ Talking C. Why do Plants Talk with Each Other? D. How do Plants Communicate with People? D Motivated (有内驱力的 ) or Overachieving? Everyone has the occasional classmate who hands in his work ahead of time with really beautiful handwriting. Some teachers may cheerfully get the homework by saying "Of course you did it early.I'm sure you've done a good job!" Some teachers may feel annoyed because "The deadline is not until next Friday." Behind this student's back are tons of whispers from his classmates, "Ugh, he is such an overachiever and it's so annoying ..." If you ask the same student to explain his behavior, he probably says that he is simply "motivated". Such students refuse to call themselves overachievers but prefer "motivated" instead. They want to shy away from the unpleasant term "overachiever" but choose to embrace the word "motivated" . Why is the term "overachiever" used as an insult (侮辱 )? Do we not all work hard to achieve our goals? Why does the "motivated" student not proudly call himself an "overachiever" ? In my personal experience, being called an overachiever in front of my classmates is not pleasant at all. The word is often connected with an unkind smile or sometimes a hint ofjealousy (嫉妒 )."Overachiever" carries the implied (暗指的 ) sense which "over" lends it - you have done too much and you have gone too far. Anyway, it is beyond the proper degree and just annoying to those students who refuse to put in the effort themselves and get unhappy with you for doing so. A student would rather think of himself as an excellent student and it is motivation that drives him to do his best. What is the implied meaning of "motivated" ? Connected with positive words like willpower, spirit and determination, the "motivated" student would appear to be competing in an event of the brain Olympics. Although there are differences in their implications, the student who calls himself "motivated" could actually be a secret overachiever, going over the top for all his work; while the "overachiever" is nothing more than a motivated student, driven by the simple desire to do well and willing to put in time and effort. In fact, the choice lies within the student: to overachieve or not to overachieve; to find the motivation to do well and be driven by it, or to sit back and blame others for overachieving to hide his inability to achieve. 30. According to the passage, overachievers A. are popular with their classmates B. hand in homework ahead of time C. are much loved by their teachers D. look down on others for being slow 31. The word "embrace" in Paragraph 2 probably means "_ ". A. understand B. explain C. doubt D. accept 32. What can we learn from the passage? A. Teachers expect students to benefit from their extra work. B. Students compete with each other to become overachievers. C. Classmates may laugh at overachievers to hide their inability to achieve. D. The writer has some pleasant experiences of being called an overachiever. 33. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. students shouldn't be encouraged to be overachievers B. students without motivation will become overachievers C. motivated students make better progress than overachievers D. motivated students have something in common with overachievers 七、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共10分，47-49题每题2分，50题4分） Grow Your Own Garden Gardens come in all shapes and sizes. Starting a new one might seem difficult. But with a little planning and a few tips, you’ll grow your own garden easily. Grow what you love in your own garden. This way, you’ll be sure to enjoy the process. You can grow vegetables. If you don’t like vegetables, you can grow fruits, flowers and succulents (多肉植物). Once you decide what kind of garden you’d like to start, you’ll need to plan a few things before getting to work. First, choose a location. Find a proper place that has good sunlight. Maybe you live in an apartment and don’t have a yard. That’s not a problem! You can start a garden in containers (容器) or most plastic bottles. You can even grow a garden in old rain boots. Next, pick the right soil. This is important for a garden. An expert at a gardening store can advise you on the best soil for your garden. After you have the correct soil, choose your plants. Will you start with seeds or seedlings (幼苗)? Growing from seeds is often less expensive. And it’s more satisfying, because you get to watch the growth from seed to plant. But growing from seedlings is easier. There’s a better chance for your plant to grow big enough. If you are wondering the best time to plant your own garden, plant right before the start of the growing season so that the plants can grow better. If you’re a new gardener, start small. Because the larger the garden is, the greater the losses can be when things go wrong. Once you know how to plant a garden, you’ll be able to plant season after season and try to grow new things. Soon your plants will produce fruits and vegetables. Share flowers with neighbors to brighten their day, or bring some vegetables to a family that’s going through a hard time. As I like to say, “Be a kind person!” 34. What can you grow in your own garden? ________________________________________________________________________ 35. Who can advise you on the best soil for your garden? ________________________________________________________________________ 36.
