Argentina 9:00 a.m.
In Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, it is nine a.m. on a warm summer morning, and people are starting work or school. November is a summer month in Argentina because it is in the southern hemisphere（南半球）.

The first person to skate solo around the world, Fabrice Gropaiz of France, began his journey in San Francisco three years ago. Since then, he has skated
more than 30,000 kilometres through thirty-three
countries.
He skated across the USA and northern Mexico
from west to east, then across Europe, Russia,
Mongolia, China and Australia before flying across
the Pacific Ocean to San Francisco again.
In all the big cities, television and newspaper
reporters interviewed him.
He travelled with fifteen kilogrammes of
equipment, which he pulled behind him on a
homemade trailer. His equipment included a tent, a change of clothes and a video camera.
A friend, David Lai, made a web site (https://www.doczj.com/doc/0a2002688.html,), and Fabrice sent regular news to the site. He wrote in English so that people all over the world could understand. Thousands of people sent emails to Fabrice during his journey. People saw him on television and read about him, and many readers and listeners offered to help him. Fabrice asked them to send money to a medical research organisation. In this way, he raised a lot of money for important medical research.
Between stops, he travelled 100 kilometres on good days. But there were also bad days and problems: bad weather, broken skates, dangerous drivers, snakes on the roads in Mexico, and a wolf attack in Mongolia. However, none of these problems stopped him, and he wants to do another trip.

In 2003, 14-year-old Jenna spoke to a journalist about moving to Spain.
“I've only been a Beckham fan for a few years but my dad
always loved seeing him play at Manchester United. It took
him ten hours to get there by car from Cornwall! Mum also
follows Becks now. When she and I heard he was leaving to
play in Spain, I said,…Let's move to Spain!'(61)Dad agreed to
come but my elder brother decided to stay in England. He's
still living in our house there.
At first we didn't know if Becks would play for Barcelona
or Madrid, so my parents bought a place in Alicante. It's only
about three hours away from both cities. Our new home has
three bedrooms and two bathrooms on one floor, and there's a
flat with another two bedrooms and bathrooms under that.
There's a pool, too.
My friends in England will come and visit for my birthday in February. They think I'm a bit mad but they're pleased for me too. (62) It's great to live in another country and learn a new language, but I'm finding Spanish quite difficult. I learned French in England and I keep mixing the two. It'll be easier when I start at my new school.
Becks is playing up really well in Spain, which keeps my dad happy!What I love most about him is that he's a big family man. Being famous hasn't changed him. I'm having a great time in Spain and I'd really like to meet Becks one day.”
A）将文中划线的61、62小题的两处句子分别翻译成汉语。（答案写在答题纸上）
B）根据短文内容回答下列问题。（答案写在答题纸上）
63. Who had the idea of moving to Spain?

Dan Shaw is blind. When he walks down the street, people stare at him. They look at him because he has Cuddles. Cuddles is his guide horse. She is a miniature horse. In fact, Cuddles is
only 26 inches high!
Sometimes, blind people have guide dogs to help them. However, some blind
people don't like dogs. They may be afraid of dogs. They may be allergic
（对……过敏）to dogs. Now, they can have guide horses instead.
Dan Shaw was the first person to have a
guide horse. Cuddles helps him a lot. Guide
horses are very small, but they are very
strong. One day, Dan and Cuddles were on
a busy street. Suddenly, a bicycle came
towards them. Cuddles used her strong
body. She pushed Dan out of the way. The horses have good memories,
too. Cuddles can remember how to go to different places with Dan,
such as the grocery store or the post office.
Miniature horses live a long time. Some miniature horses live for about 40 years. Most dogs only live for about 15 years. Guide horses do not have to live inside, like dogs do. They can live outside, but they need a home with a big backyard. This is because they eat a lot of grass.
Many blind people want guide horses like Cuddles. Right now, there are only a few, but soon, there will be more.
阅读短文，根据其内容回答下列问题。（答案写在答题纸上）
65. What helps Dan Shaw cross the street?
66. What advantages （长处）does Cuddles have?
67. Why do the guide horses need a home with a big backyard?

“I'll have cucumber sandwiches, crumpets, scones with jam and cream, a slice of Dundee cake and a pot of Earl Grey tea, please. But no sugar—I'm on a diet.” Many people say such things in English tea shops.
In England, tea is not just a drink, it's a meal as well. In some homes it's the last meal of the day, although for many people it's a light meal between lunch and dinner. But most working people don't have time for a proper tea.
Most tea shops serve tea between three and five in the afternoon, although the most popular time is around four o'clock. So an English tea is great for people on holiday who have the time to enjoy it. Why not try a typical English tea in Oxford? After a long day visiting the romantic city, here are some tea shops to visit.
The Randolph Hotel in Beaumont Street is in the very centre of the city. It's a fine Victorian building and offers the best traditions of English teatime, with piano music in the background.
The Nosebag in St Michael's Street is popular with university students. Excellent homemade cakes and a good choice of teas are available （可得到的）but go early as there are always long queues.
The Wykeham Coffee Shop in Holywell Street is a small tea shop opposite New College, and is popular with tourists and students.
George's Café in the Covered Market is popular with market workers and shoppers.
Queen's Lane Coffee House on the High Street is one of the oldest restaurants in Oxford, and despite its name, serves excellent teas, and also has a choice of newspapers.
阅读短文，根据其内容完成下列各句，每空不得超过5个词。（答案写在答题纸上）
68. This passage is about teatime and ________ in Oxford, England.
69. In addition to （除了）drinking tea, people can listen to ________ in the Randolph Hotel and eat

A) You will hear a passage. Choose the best answer to each question. The passage will be read twice. Hello, my name is Joe Hyden and I am 12 years old. My eldest brother David is 16 and my elder brother Michael is 14. I have three younger brothers. My little sister, who is called Naomi, is only two. David likes playing the drums and Michael likes playing the guitar. They both play quite loudly but no one really minds.
I get on well with David but not with my younger brothers Jacob and Sam. David, Michael and I are lucky because we all go to school. We go to a school that is far, far away and we are only at home during the holidays. It's good being in a big family. I often play football with my brothers. In smaller families, this is not possible. Also, a big family usually means a big house, so you can always find somewhere to be by yourself. I like that sometimes. The bad things are that there are always little kids around you. They can be so noisy! Everything around you is very busy and really messy, and there's lots of housework to do. It also costs much more to go anywhere. But I like being in a big family.
B) You will hear a passage. Complete the form according to the passage. The passage will be read twice. Thank you for calling the North London Arts Cinema, Wood Green. There is no one to answer your call at the moment.
The North London Arts Cinema is open seven days a week and shows a lot of British and foreign films.
Next week we will show an Italian film called Midnight Meeting. You can see that film from Monday to Thursday. It will be on twice a day in the evenings. That's at 6:45 and 9:15. The film lasts two hours and fifteen minutes. Tickets are ￡4, but there is a special student ticket at ￡2 for all our midweek films. Please bring your student card if you want the cheaper ticket.
The nearest car park to the cinema is in Hauxton Street. That's H-A-U-X-T-O-N. It's just five minutes' walk from the cinema.
Thank you for calling the North London Arts Cinema. If you need further information, phone during office hours—9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday to Friday.

2016年全国大学生英语能力竞赛攻略 学长分享英语竞赛技巧： 知己知彼百战不殆”，要想在全国大学生英语竞赛中取得好成绩，平时的积累是基础，而考前对考试的研究和分析以及练习则是升华。近几年来英语竞赛也在不断调整中。对我们来说，最重要的参考资料就是当年的竞赛样题，和官网的考试说明文件，从中我们可以了解到考试的题型、分值、时间分配、难度和新变化。只有这样我们才能对症下药，合理分配考试时间，获得最好的成绩。其实考试，一言以蔽之，就是尽量的规定时间内拿到最高的分数，分数越高，就意味着你越成功。由于每年试题结构、题型等都会有所变化，下面就以2010年的英语竞赛初赛试题为例，分析一下时间安排。今年初赛试题共分为七部分，时间120分钟，满分150分。七部分分别为听力、词汇与语法结构、完形填空、阅读理解、翻译、智力测试和写作。下面就分别进行分析。 第一部分是听力，由四部分组成，第一部分是五篇短对话，然后是两篇长对话，第三部分是五篇短新闻，第四部分是听写式填空。总分是30分，总的来说，听力的难度不算很大，应该是介于四、六级之间，大部分都可以直接从对话中找到原句和答案。但是还是有一定难度的。首先，前20道选择题都只读一遍，这和一般的考试不同，所以对选手就提出了更高的要求，必须从一开始就高度集中注意力，才能不遗漏重要信息。此外，听写式填空也是对基本知识的一个考查，经常有同学听到了却不会写，这需要我们打好自己的基础。这一部分要力争拿到20分以上。 第二部分是词汇与语法结构，这也是对“双基”知识的一个考查，可以说基本上是考查基本功的，当然我们也要注意，这其中对话类的应用题目也呈逐年上升的趋势。总分15分，官方建议完成时间是十分钟。这一部分要力争拿到10分以上。 第三部分是完形填空，也是我认为全卷除了智力测试以外最难的题目，题型包括根据上下文填空、根据给出的首字母填空、根据给出的单词的适当形式填空。分值是十分，官方建议完成时间是10分钟。这题不仅考查你的基本词汇语法知识，也考查你对文章的理解和把握。可以说是阅读+词汇的结合。要拿高分很难，但是其实还是有一些分好拿的，这一部分我们要力争拿到4分以上。 第四部分是阅读理解，总分40分，官方建议完成时间是25分钟。这是全卷分值最大的一道大题，也是时间最紧的。我估计绝大多数同学在25分钟内都没办法全部完成（我也很勉强）。这一部分我觉得最重要的还是把握文章的开头和结尾，了解主旨，然后根据题目去快速定位，因为这里的题目大部分都是在原文可以找到答案的。这一部分阅读量大、题型多样（包括选择题、问答题、是/否/未提及题，摘抄题、填空题等）、也是对同学英语应用能力的有力考查，还是要熟能生巧，在平时多加练习，力争达到又对又快的境界，这一部分要力争拿到25分以上。 第五部分是翻译，包括英译汉和汉译英两部分。共20分，官方建议完成时间是15分钟。这一部分可以说是全卷最简单的题型，考查的内容都没超过四级甚至是平常练习的难度，对英译汉，还是要花点时间看看文章开头和结尾，“磨刀不误砍柴工”，很多翻译都要根据上下文进行，才能更加的到位。有时在翻译中遇到生词，也可以根据上下文进行推断。比如今年的汉译英试题中多次提到“dropout”这个单词，我考试时也忘了这是什么意思，最后还是通过文章最后
初二英语竞赛试题 (问题卷) 2006.6 注:1.全卷分问题卷和答题卷。满分为100分,答卷时间为90分钟。 2.本卷答案必须做在答题卷相应位置上,做在问卷上无效。 3.请用钢笔或圆珠笔将学校、班级、姓名分别填在答题卷的规定位置上。 I.词汇(10%) (共10小题, 每小题1分) (A)根据下列句子所给汉语注释,在答题卷的横线上,写出空缺处各单词的正确形式(每空只写一词)。 1.I spent an hour and a half ____(写) the passage last night. 2.They have a little more ______(信息)about that accident. 3.They went _____(通过)the forest and reached the small village. 4. If you take more ______(锻炼), you will be much healthier than before. 5. ---- Look! What a fine day it is！ ---- Yes．It’s the _____（阳光充足的）day of the week. （B）根据句意,写出空缺处的单词,首字母已给出(每空一词)。 6.

中学生即兴英语演讲比赛稿 中学生即兴英语演讲比赛稿 2020-10-06 英语即兴演讲是学生在没有做任何准备或者准备时间极短的情况下进行的演讲，其需要演讲人具有较快的思维能力和较强的组织能力的一种口头表达能力极强的交际活动。下面是范文大全小编为大家整理了中学生即兴英语演讲比赛稿3篇，欢迎大家阅读。 中学生即兴英语演讲比赛稿篇1 Whatever one does, one should do it with confidence. If one has no confidence, there is little possibility that one would ever achieve anything, especially when oneis faced with drawbacks or hardships. This truth seems to be evident. However, in reality we do see a lot of people who complain that they like the ability to do something or that their difficulties are too great to be overcome. For someone, this might be true. But for many others, this only shows that they have lost heart. Why do people often feel frustrated even though they are capable of doing something? There are, among others, two main reasons. First, these people do have a correct estimate of themselves. Second, they overestimate the difficulties.
