Chinese history says that the Chinese had chopsticks as far as the Xia Dynasty(朝代)(about 4, 00 years ago). In the Spring and Autumn Period(时期) copper and iron chopsticks appeared. With the Han Dynasty lacquered(上漆) chopsticks came, followed by gold and silver chopsticks still later. Today we have chopsticks made of plastics. The most expensive are made of part of tusks of elephants and hard green stone. Chopsticks tell Chinese tradition in their way. In ancient (古代的) times therich used hard green stone or gold chop-sticks to show their wealth(富有). In history many kings used silver chopsticks to take their food to see if it was poisonous(有毒的). It was said that if it was, the silver chopsticks would turn colour. Chopsticks are traditionally given to a daughter when she marries to show that they should have a son very soon, for “Chopsticks” in Chinese is pronounced like “quick a son”! Tianzhu chopsticks from Hangzhou, wooden chopsticks from Shanyang of Shanxi Province, and Beijing’s chopsticks are well-known. Many westerners, businessmen, tourists put aside(一边) their knives and forks in favour(爱好) of chopsticks in China. Chopsticks appeared in the old Chinese story: an old man teaches his sons a lesson by showing how he could easily break a single chopstick but not a number of them. In China, chopsticks are connected with good luck. So on the country’s New Year’s Eve many families will lay out new chopsticks at dinners as a way of making requests for luck. 1.. Chopsticks have their beginnings in . A. China B. many Asian countries C. African countries D. all over the world 2. Copper and iron chopsticks appeared in . A. the Xia Dynasty B. the Spring and Autumn Period C. the Han Dynasty D. the Tang Dynasty 3 A. The history of chopsticks can tell us A. something about Chinese food B. nothing but how many kinds of chopsticks are used in China. C. about the lives of Chinese kings D. much about Chinese way of life in the past 4. Many Westerners in China like to use . A. chopsticks B. their knives C. their forks D. chopsticks and knives and forks at the same time 5. Chinese use chopsticks . A. to lift food to the mouth only B. to teach others a lesson only C. in many other ways besides taking food D. in many other ways except taking food B Some people believe that schools will no longer be necessary in the near future. Theysaid that because of the Internet and other new technology, there is no longer any need for school buildings, classes or teachers. Perhaps this will be true one day, but if the world has no schools, I can ’t imagine(想像) how our society will be, In fact, we should learn how to use new technology to make schools better. We should invent a new knid of school that is linked to libraries, museums, science centers, labs and even companies. Technological companies should create(创造) learning programs for schools. Scientists or professors could give talks through the Internet. TV networks and local stations could develop programs about things students are actually studying in school. Labs could set up websites to show new technology so students could see it on the Internet. Is this a dream? No. There are already many cities where this is beginning to happen. Here the whole city is linked to the Internet, and learning can take place at home, at school, and in the office. Businesses provide programs for the schools and the society. The schools provide computer labs for people without their own computers at home. Because everyone can be on the Internet, older people use it as much as younger ones. And everyone can visit distant(远处的) libraries and museums as easily as nearby ones. How will this new kind of school change the usual way of learning? It is too early to be sure, but it is very exciting to think about it. Technology will change the way we learn; schools will change as well; and we will all learn something from the Internet. 6. In the writer’s opinion , .A. more schools should be builtB. schools are necessaryC. schools are not necessaryD. there should be fewer schools 7. What does “a new kind of school” mean? A. A newly b uilt school.B. There a re many new students in the schoo l.C. There are many new teachers in the school.D. A school, which is linkedto Internet. 8. On the Internet, you . A. can view the new technology B. can see everything except new technology Can learn everything D. can do whatever you like 9. Which of the following sentences is NOT true? A. The schools provide computer labs for those who have no personal computers. B. If you are not a student, you cannot view the new technology on the Internet. C. O n the Internet, you can visit another city’s library as easily as the local people. D. Technology will change our way of learning. 10. What is the best title for this passage?A. InternetB. SchoolC. New TechnologyD. will Technology Take the Place of Schools? 三．综合填空Museums have changed. They are no longer places that one “should”go but to (1) e_____. At a (2) s______ museum in Canada, you can feel your hair stand on end as harmless electricity passes through your body. At the Children’s Museum in New York,you can play an African drum. There are no “Do Not Touch” (3) s_____in some other museums in the USA. More and more museum directors have realized that people learn beat when they can become part of what they are seeing. In many science museums, the visitors are encouraged to (4) t_____, listen,operate and experiment so as to discover scientific rules for themselves. The (5) p____ is not only to provide fun, but also help people feel at home in the world of science.

One cause of all these (6) c____ is the increase in wealth and spare time. (7) A_____ cause is the growing number of young people. Many of them are college students or college graduates. They see things in a new and different (8) w_____. The old museums have been changing and the government is (9) e_____ the building of new, modern museums. In the States and Canada, there are more than 6 000 museums,almost twice as (10) m____ as there were 25 years ago 四.短文还原Why do I want to go to college? 1.___________________________But many times I have asked myself.I have come up with a whole variety of reasons. 2.______________________ Many things make human beings different from or better than or even superior to animals3.________________________ ___ If I fail to receive higher education, my education will not finish.

In a word, I must bewell-educated. 五．阅读表达 We all dream about things that we would like to do we hope to achieve in the future. But are everybody’s dreams the same? Here are some of the findings of a survey about hopes and dreams, in which thousands of students across China took part in it. What are the hopes of teenagers? We received several different answers to the question: what would you like to do after finishing your education? I t seems some students would like to start work as soon as possible, so that they can help provide better lives for their parents. Other students hope to continue studying after finis hing school and to go to university. Although money is important, many teenagers said they want to do jobs they enjoy. According to the survey, the most popular choice of job is computerprogramming. What are the dreams of teenagers? Teenagers have all kinds of dreams. Some are more realistic than others. For example, many students said they would like to be volunteers if Beijing could hold the World Cup, maybe working as translators or tour guides. And some said they dream of going to the moon one day. According to the survey, less realistic dreams are also common, but many students reported that they were willing to work hard to achieve their dreams. Quite a few dream of becoming famous, perhaps famous sports people or singers. Some said they’d like to go on exciting trips; one student said she’d love to sail across the Pacific Ocean. And then there are dreams that are impossible; three students said they’d like t o be able to fly! Conclusion: It was clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes. It seems that most stude nts hope to have a good education and find a good job. On the other hand, students dream of very different things: good things, and even crazy things. It is very important to dream, so hold on your dreams; one day they may just come true. 1. What is the most popular choice of job. ?______________________________ 2. Why would some students like to start work as soon as possible?___________________________________________________ 3. Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.________________________________________ 4.

He had had a hard summer. His father was in jail(监狱). His mother had to work nights, so she wasn‘t at home in the evening and was 36 when he woke up.As the weeks went on, David slowly gave up doing his 37 and began to get into more trouble out on the playground. He was going down hill quickly. It was clear that he was looking for any kind of 38 —even if it was negative. I also knew that he was not getting much 39 at home.One day, David and I sat in the library and just talked. I told him that I knew that he was not an ―F‖ student and that I was not going to let him 40 . It was my job to teach him, but his job to 41 . We talked about home and what he did after school. He knew what I 42 him to do and that I respected him as a person. As a result, his behavior in my room 43 . From then on David and I periodically sat in the library and just talked. He told me that his 44 was to pass the fifth grade and not be suspended(停学). Finally, the last day of school arrived. David had met his goal.During Teacher Appreciation(感谢) Week, the students had written about any teacher they wanted. In my booklet, on a piece of paper, it read: ―You never give up me because you know I am smart. And for that I not only appreciate you, but admire you.‖-signed David. After reading that, I sat down with tears rolling down my face. We, as teachers, never know when or how we 45 our students. But it‘s the notes like this that make all we do worthwhile.36.

My 12-year-old daughter is in tears." I have so take a test tomorrow. I don't understand any of it," she cries out. After shouting and shutting her door, she calms down enough to go through her notes. The following dry I ask her how the test went and the just says "OK, I got a nine"."Wow. well done!" I say, before she finishes with "But I never get a ten!"According to James, this obsession with getting top marks has been a bad development, which encourages people to think of education in terms of work and money. To test this, I asked mydaughter why she was so worried about her tests. She looked at me as if I was thick. "Well, if Idon't get good grades, I won't be able to afford nice things like a car and stuff."I was quite surprised, because I don't consider myself a pushy parent. But James suggestsand it leaves students feeling failures even if they are very bright. He points to the Danish system(体制)of education as a better model. Creating happy citizens who have good social skills is seenas more important than high achievements at school or the needs of business.For me, I cannot remember the last time I had to work out the area of a circle, recite a Shakespeare poem or grammar rules, yet I have lived a happy life. What I really needed to learnat school was how to make polite conversations, or how to avoid getting into debt or how todevelop good personality.This is in fact similar to what Oliver James really has in mind. And he is looking for schoolswhere students are encouraged to find and follow their own interests, something more like Tongjon. Tongjon has been developed in some Korean private schools. It is quite different from the more rigid system of learning things by heart that is used in Korea, and indeed in many other school systems around the world.As the Russian poet Pushkin said, "Inspiration(灵感)is needed in geometry(几何学)just asmuch as in poetry ", and inspiration does not come from endlessly revising for tests or gettingworried about them .46.What does the writer probably think of his/her daughter?A.She sets herself a goal too high to reach.B. She should be more polite to her parents.C. Sheis hard-working but not very bright.D. She takes her grades much too seriously.47.What does the word "obsession"in paragraph 3 mean?A plain and unavoidable fact.B. A satisfied and very proud state.C. A practical and widely-used way.D. A fixed and often unreasonable idea.48.What can we infer from the passage?A.Social skills are as important as high grades.B. Interest in grades can shake self-confidence.C. The writer regrets not having studied hard at school.D. Danish educational system is for very smart students.49.The writer wants to tell us that____.A. learning happily is the key to self-development.B. top marks may be helpful to increase one's interest.C. tests should be improved to give children inspiration.D. education should meet one's needs for word and money.50.What is Oliver Jame‘s Affluenza from this text?A a bookB a filmC a programD an advertisementBThe rockets take astronauts and man-made satellites into space. The satellites are used for communication, weather monitoring and research. But how do satellites stay up without falling down? There are two opposite forces (力量) acting on the satellite. One of them is the force of gravitation (地心引力), which tries to pull the satellite towards the earth. The other force is created by the rotation (旋转) of the satellite around the earth. This force tries to take the satellite away from the earth. With these two forces, the satellite goes round and round. The gravitational pull of the earth (the force which pulls everything towards the ground) is like a rope which keeps the satellite from flying away.Everything that goes up has to come down. It is only a matter of time before a satellite comes back to the earth. As time goes by, the satellite loses its speed, which makes the gravitational pull stronger than the force pulling it away. This makes the satellite crash (坠落) down to the earth.51. Which of the following uses of satellites is NOT mentioned?A．communicationB．monitoring the weather conditionC．doing some researchD．taking pictures52. The force that pulls the satellite towards the earth is created by ________.A．the earthB．the satellite itselfC．the rotation of the satelliteD．the rope53. Why can‘t the satellites fly away?A．Because of the force from the earth.B．Because the satellite is too big.C．Because of the force created by the rotation of the satellite around the earth.D．Because people on earth have made ropes to tie the satellites tightly.54. The satellite will finally crashes down to the earth ________.A．when it flies fasterB．when its speed slows downC．when people cut the ropeD．when there is no electricity in it55.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．There are four forces acting on the satellite.B．The force of gravitation makes the satellite go round and round.C．As time goes by, the satellite will finally fall down.D．The satellite will stay in space forever.CYou‘ve probably heard of working dogs that help police officers, or horses that help farmers. Did you know that carrier pigeons（信鸽）can be trained to help people too? Here are some examples.MailmanCarrier pigeons can be trained to carry messages to people. The note is placed into a small can. The can is tied to the pigeon‘s leg. Then the pigeon flies off with the note.LifeguardFrom high up in the sky, specially trained pigeons can find orange life jackets in the ocean. Sometimes it is difficult for humans to find people lost at sea, especially when the weather is bad. However, pigeons can fly quickly over a large area of water to look for people.SpyMany years ago, carrier pigeons were used to help our country during wars (战争). ―Spy pigeons‖ had small cameras that were tied to their feet. As a pigeon flew over enemy (敌人)land, the camera took photos of the land below. This would allow our soldiers to see where the enemies were and what they were doing. So next time you see a pigeon, stop and watch it closely. What might look like an ordinary bird to most people, might actually be helpful.小题1:Which part of the carrier pigeon is the can tied to?A．The pigeon‘s back.B．The pigeon‘s head.C．The pigeon‘s neck.D．The pigeon‘s leg.小题2:What kind of people can the carrier pigeons find?A．The people in orange life jackets at sea.B．The people in red jackets in the boats.C．The people swimming in the ocean.D．The people lost in the mountains.小题3:Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A．A pigeon could predict what the weather would be like.B．A pigeon was tied with a small camera around its leg.C．A pigeon could help us to know the number of the enemy.D．A pigeon carried the camera to take photos of the enemy land.小题4:What kind of jobs are mentioned for a carrier pigeon?A．A mailman, a lifeguard and a spy.B．A trainer, a spy and a police officer.C．A soldier, a police officer and a mailman.D．A farmer, a weather reporter and a lifeguard.小题5:What is the purpose of writing this article?A．To make readers like pigeons more.B．To teach readers about the lives of wild pigeons.C．To tell readers about real jobs held by carrier pigeons.D．To share science fictions about pigeons helping people.DAlmost all the film fans heard of the film The Sound of Music._______61_______ Now the original stage production of The Sound of Music is to be performed for the first time in the Austrian capital, 40 years after the film was released.

Children do not really study at this time. They only attend for half the day and learn what school is like. Children attend elementary school for the next six years. They learn to read and write and work with numbers. They also study the world and its people. After they leave elementary school, children go to junior high school for three years and senior high school for another three years. This is called secondary education. In some places, the children go to elementary school for eight years and high school for four. In all, elementary and secondary education together take twelve years to complete excluding （不包括）kindergarten.根据短文，选择最恰当的选项。

When he came before the king and gave him the goose, the king at once saw that it had only one leg. Now, the king himself was born with one bad leg, so he had never been able to walk properly.

I don’t need to go.” “I’ll just send some money instead.”You won’t hear any such things from Betty Lowe. ‘As Great Britain’s oldest active volunteer, 100-year-old Lowe spends her days between volunteering at a charity WRS shop at a hospital in her native Salford , England, and helping out with Britain’s version of the Girl Guides——a group she’s been a member of for 89 years.“I had great interest in the guide and I used to go camping and walking. I was a bit of an outdoor girl when I was younger,” Lowe said.Lowe isn’t quite in shape for camping these days, but she still ke eps busy with her volunteer activities. When she’s not volunteering with one of her favorite gr oups, she’s helping out friends and family, and is known as a best birthday cake cook.Lowe just turned-4100 years old on Monday,-and more than 100 friends and family members showed up at her birthday party to wish her well. It. sounds like this charitable woman was happy to blow out ‘the candles with a smile. “I think it’s very good to be 100,” she said. “l’ve enjoyed allmy life.”43. Betty Lowe became a volunteer member when she was years old.A. 25B. 100C. 11D.89. .44. Lowe was a member of the Girl G uides because ____________. ’ .A. she was interested in itB. She was curious about itC. she was glad with itD. she wasworried about it45. What can be the best title for this passage?A. An Old WomanB. A Charity ActivityC. A Birthday Party D . A GreatVolunteerB．Green is an important color in nature. It is also the color of most growing plants. Sometimes the word green means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes it describes something that is not yet ripe ( 成熟的) or finished. For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience, who is new to a situation, in the fifteenth century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horns had not yet developed. A century or so later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in battle. By the eighteenth century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today——a person who is new in a job.Someone who has the ability.-to grow plants well is said to have. a green thumb .The expression comes from the early 1900s. A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues togrow long after your plants have died.The Green Revolution is the name given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural scientists who had gree n thumbs. ‘Green is also the color used to describe the powerful emotion, jealousy( (嫉妒). Thegreen-eyed monster is not a frightening creature from outer space. It describes the unpleasant feeling a person has when someone has something he wants. A young man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if his girlfriend begins going out with someone else. Or, that green-eyed monster may affect your friend if you get a pay raise and she does not. '46. From the second paragraph, we can conclude(得出结论) that ___________.A a greenhorn refers to (指的是) a horn of a young cow or oxB. a word has different meanings in the same century.C. the language develops with time going byD. a greenhorn means a soldier who hasn’t had any experience in battle today47. If a person has a green thumb, he or she probably_____________ .A. suffers from an illness in the thumbB. does well in growing plantsC. has a thumb in green colorD. has wonderful magic and energy48. If Green has a beautiful dress that Mary likes very much, _________________A. Green may suffer from the green-eyed monster -B. Mary is probably a girl with a green thumbC. Green is probably called a greenhorn.D. Mary may suffer from the green-eyed monsterCMy summer hols wr CWOT. B4, we usd 2 go 2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & thr3:-@ kids FTF.

uncomfortable or afraid．One of the greatest risk I'd ever taken was playing a role in my high school's fall play．I was not only a person who had （12）performance（表演）experience，but also I stuttered（口吃）．Then （13）of performing in front of people made me worried．The reason why I （14）to perform was that I wanted to take part in my school theatre program．On the day of the audition（试演），there were also some acting exercises to warm us up．We were divided into pairs to （15）parts of the play．I felt very worried．After I said some of the lines（台词），my partner said，"I （16）you are stuttering．Is that for dramatic effect or do you really stutter？"I was speechless．When my （17）to audition came，my heart was beating fast．Across from me sat the director and his assistants（助手）．Needless to say．I was

stutter．We went through itseveral times，and finally it was over．I was so （20），The next Monday I was told that I had made the play．How excited I was!It was a lot of fun doing the play，and it was clear

neither．Some of them float through the air，and some lie hidden in the ground．They do not need sunlight to survive，and if the weather becomes too cold，they can become inactive until conditions improve．What are these？They are called fungi（菌类），and you see them almost every day．Many kinds of fungi seem disgusting，such as the green black things that appear on the food which are left too long in the refrigerator．But other kinds are not so bad．For example，the yeast that is used to make bread and mushrooms （蘑菇）areboth fungi．What makes fungi different from plants and animals？An animal can move around by itself．Fungi get around too，but they don't have feet，wings，or tails．They have to wait for wind or some other outside force to move them．Plants are different from fungi because they have chlorophyll（叶绿素）．It helps them make food from the energy in sunlight．Fungi do not have chlorophyll．Some fungi are bad，while others are not．Some fungi cause diseases，such as athlete's foot，which makes feet uncomfortable．Other kinds of fungi can be used to make medicines，which have saved many lives．Fungi clean up more than wounds，though．They are the world's first recyclers．Without fungi，our world would be a mess．Since fungi cannot make their own food as plants do，they must get their food elsewhere．Many fungi get their food from dead plants．They break them down and turn them into soil．The fungi get a meal，and the world gets a housecleaning．23．What does the underlined word"disgusting"most probably mean？A．strongB．unpleasantC．activeD．small24．According to the passage，．A．fungi can move everywhere by themselvesB．fungi are unable to survive in cold conditionsC．some fungi can make food from the energy in sunlight．D．some fungi are useful to humans and the environment25．Where can you most probably find this passage？A．In a social report．B．In a biology book．C．In geography magazine．D．In a farming book．26．（6分）When was the last time you saw three men running down a forest trail（小径）in the rain wearing flip﹣flops（拖鞋）？That's what my friend Brandon，Josh and I were doing last autumn．We were looking for a waterfall（瀑布）．We didn't have much time to get to the waterfall and back，so we were running．We were wearing flip ﹣flops to prevent our shoes getting dirty．It was raining，but lightly．It kept us cool as we climbed over giant stones and through a shallow（浅的）stream．We followed red arrows（箭头）and crossed that stream several times，walking on toward the promised waterfall．Time was not on our side，however，and we were forced to turn around．As we started back，we looked at the shallow stream we had just crossed．Where did this rushing river come from？That was when we realized a flash flood was around!In the few minutes the water rose at a fast speed．Now there were no big stones tobe seen﹣only what looked like lumps（隆起）covered with rushing water．We had no choice but to move our way back carefully in the rushing water﹣in flip﹣flops．We had crossed the stream not once or twice，but six times in search of a waterfall that we never even reached!With most of the crossings，we needed each other's help if we didn't want to be washed away by water．Wet all over，we felt relaxed after we made the last crossing．"My dad always told me to keep off a river when travelling in the rain．"Josh said as we hurried back down the path．"Why didn't you tell us that earlier？"I laughed．"Would it have made a difference？"came the reply．He had a point．26．Why were there no big stones to be seen in the stream when they came back？A．The big stones were moved away by someone else．B．They were running too fast to notice the big stones．C．The big stones were covered with rushing water．D．The big stones were washed away by rushing water．27．Why didn't they find the waterfall in the end？A．Because they were short of time．B．Because they were wearing flip﹣flops．C．Because Josh kept warning them not to go any further．D．Because the flood prevented them from going forward．28．We can infer（推断）from the passage that the writer and his friends．A．were crazy about outdoor activitiesB．made full preparations before the tripC．crossed rushing water easily in the endD．had much experience in travelling in the rain．29．（6分）While it is common for restaurant owners to connect with their customers，a restaurant owner in the U．S．is taking it to a whole new level．Tim Harries gives out free hugs（拥抱）to every customer at the end of each meal．The atmosphere （气氛）at his restaurant"Tim's Place"is so positive（积极的）that customers often call it the"World's friendliest restaurant"．．"Tim's Hug"is in fact an item on the menu described as a"love"treat．Tim's hugs are doubly special because of everything he has achieved．The 26﹣year﹣old is probably the only Down syndrome sufferer（唐氏综合症患者）in the U．S．to own a restaurant，but he has several other things to be proud of﹣﹣he's a skillful special Olympian，an excellent sailor，and all experienced fisherman．He was also chosen as Homecoming King and Student of the Year in high school!So when a man like Tim hugs you，it is sure to be a special and unforgettable experienceWhen Tim expressed interest in opening a restaurant，Keith，a small businessman himself，supported him．Tim hired other people to manage the place and do the cooking，and he introduced the idea of free hugs．He realized that people want to feel at home at a restaurant．That is why he included"love"as all item on the menu．Customers can order the free hug from Tim，and even if they don't，he'll probably hug them anyway．The restaurant has been around since 2010，and Tim has given out over 19，000 hugsin the past five years﹣﹣he keeps count using a special Hug Counter．Many customers love visiting"Tim's Place"．"I've been coming here once a week．"said Michelle Garth﹣Jones，a regular customer．"I love local restaurants，and this special one has a story that stays with you．"29．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？A．Customers prefer to feel relaxed at a restaurant．B．Unless you order Tim's Hug，he will not hug you．C．As soon as you enter Tim's Place，you will get a warm hug．D．Michelle Garth﹣Jones loves listening to the story in the restaurant．30．Which of the following words can best describe Time Harris？A．HumorousB．CreativeC．SeriousD．Curious31．What may be the best title for this passage？A．Tim's AchievementsB．A Special ExperienceC．A Down Syndrome SuffererD．The World's Friendliest Restaurant．32．（8分）Many expressions that we use in American English come from novels．Today we will look at some of them from Lewis Carroll's famous novel"Alice in Wonderlan"in detail．The story is about a young girl falling down a rabbit hole．When she finally lands，she finds herself in a strange world and meets some strange characters．The first character Alice meets is the White Rabbit，who runs past her and says some strange words．Alice chases（追赶）him，and that is where her adventures begin．In English，chasing a white rabbit means chasing an impossible clue and finding yourself in a misleading situation．Then，as she runs after the rabbit，she falls down the rabbit hole into Wonderland．To fall down the rabbit hole can mean to enter a confusing（令人困惑的）situation．However，usually we use this expression to mean we get interested in something to the point of distraction（分神）．It often happens by accident and is about something not that meaningful．Later in the story，Alice meets the March Hare and the Hatter at a crazy tea party．Hares（野兔）have long been thought to behave excitedly in March，which is their mating（交配）season．Scientifically，this may not be true．But to be mad as a March Hare means that someone is completely mad，or crazy．The expression mad as a Hatter also means to be completely crazy．Of the two，mad as a Hatter is more common．But don't tell the March Hare．Who knows how he will react（反应）！Near the end of the story，Alice meets the Queen of Hearts．A woman who is called a Queen of Hearts likes controlling others and always tries to control everything and everyone around her．32．Which of the following situations best fits the expressions to fall down a rabbit hole？A．When Tom was taking a walk in the forest，he suddenly fell over onto the ground．B．When Mary turned on the TV，she chose to watch the talk show programmed as usual．C．When Jim was looking for a sport book online，he lost himself in many report on sharperstars．D．When Lily was thinking about how to solve a math problem，she came up with a good idea．33．According to the passage，the expression to be mad as a March Hare．A．describes how hares behave in MarchB．shows hares'characteristics in a scientific wayC．is used more often than the expression mad as a Hatter．D．has the same meaning as the expression mad as a Hatter34．Which character in"Alice in Wonderland"wants others to obey his or her orders in every situation？A．Alice B．The March HareC．The Hatter D．The Queen of Hearts．35．The writer mainly wants to in the passage．A．introduce a famous novel and its language styleB．introduce a famous writer Lewis Carroll and his novelsC．explore some English expressions from a famous novelD．explain why many expressions in English come from novels．四、阅读表达（满分5分）阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，每个空格里只填一个单词．36．（5分）The Internet nowadays opens a wide world to people，including teenagers，but many parents worry that their children may meet with something unhealthy when searching online．In order to solve this problem，a new search engine for children called Kiddle has appeared．Search results are filtered（过滤），so only safe website are shown and descriptions are written in simple language．Searches with bad words are shut off，too．Kiddles uses the same colors as Google in its logo and a similar design on its

animal，right？Wrong!Many organisms（有机体）in our world are neither．Some of them floatthrough the air，and some lie hidden in the ground．They do not need sunlight to survive，and if the weather becomes too cold，they can become inactive until conditions improve．What are these？They are called fungi（菌类），and you see them almost every day．Many kinds of fungi seem disgusting，such as the green black things that appear on the food which are left too long in the refrigerator．But other kinds are not so bad．For example，the yeast that is used to make bread and mushrooms （蘑菇）are both fungi．What makes fungi different from plants and animals？An animal can move around by itself．Fungi get around too，but they don't have feet，wings，or tails．They have to wait for wind or some other outside force to move them．Plants are different from fungi because they have chlorophyll（叶绿素）．It helps them make food from the energy in sunlight．Fungi do not have chlorophyll．Some fungi are bad，while others are not．Some fungi cause diseases，such as athlete's foot，which makes feet uncomfortable．Other kinds of fungi can be used to make medicines，which have saved many lives．Fungi clean up more than wounds，though．They are the world's first recyclers．Without fungi，our world would be a mess．Since fungi cannot make their own food as plants do，they must get their food elsewhere．Many fungi get their food from dead plants．They break them down and turn them into soil．The fungi get a meal，and the world gets a housecleaning．23．What does the underlined word"disgusting"most probably mean？B A．strongB．unpleasantC．activeD．small24．According to the passage，D．A．fungi can move everywhere by themselvesB．fungi are unable to survive in cold conditionsC．some fungi can make food from the energy in sunlight．D．some fungi are useful to humans and the environment25．Where can you most probably find this passage？BA．In a social report．B．In a biology book．C．In geography magazine．D．In a farming book．【分析】文章大意：这是一篇日常文化类阅读，主要介绍地球上除了动物和植物以外，还有很多有机体，其中真菌就是其中之一，很多菌类很恶心，但是有一些对我们的生活是有益的，比如酵母来做面包，蘑菇等．菌类可以用来治疗和挽救人们的生命，清理地球等，如果没有真菌我们的世界将是一片混乱．【解答】23．答案：B．词意猜测题．A强壮的．B讨厌的．C积极的．D小的．根据后面such as the green black things that appear on the food which are left too long in the refrigerator．比如在冰箱里留太久的食物上出现的绿色黑色的东西．可知，应该是很多菌类看起来"令人厌恶的"，选B．24．答案：D．细节理解题．根据倒数第二行Other kinds of fungi can be used to make medicines，which have saved many lives．其他种类的真菌可以用来做药，从而挽救了许多人的生命．及最后一段第二行They break them down and turn them into soil．The fungi get a meal，and the world gets a house cleaning它们分解它们．变为土壤．真菌得到一顿饭，世界有了一个大扫除．可知，有些菌类对人类和环境有益．选D．25．答案：B．文章来源题．A在一份社会报告中．B在生物学书中．C在一个地理杂志．D在一本农业书中．短文主要介绍菌类的种类，及对人们和地球的影响．因此应该是来源于生物书中，选B．【点评】阅读题型，要注重句子与句子之间、段落与段落之间逻辑关系以及对篇章的整体理解．根据所给问题选择正确选项完成试题．26．（6分）When was the last time you saw three men running down a forest trail（小径）in the rain wearing flip﹣flops（拖鞋）？That's what my friend Brandon，Josh and I were doing last autumn．We were looking for a waterfall（瀑布）．We didn't have much time to get to the waterfall and back，so we were running．We were wearing flip ﹣flops to prevent our shoes getting dirty．It was raining，but lightly．It kept us cool as we climbed over giant stones and through a shallow（浅的）stream．We followed red arrows（箭头）and crossed that stream several times，walking on toward the promised waterfall．Time was not on our side，however，and we were forced to turn around．As we started back，we looked at the shallow stream we had just crossed．Where did this rushing river come from？That was when we realized a flash flood was around!In the few minutes the water rose at a fast speed．Now there were no big stones tobe seen﹣only what looked like lumps（隆起）covered with rushing water．We had no choice but to move our way back carefully in the rushing water﹣in flip﹣flops．We had crossed the stream not once or twice，but six times in search of a waterfall that we never even reached!With most of the crossings，we needed each other's help if we didn't want to be washed away by water．Wet all over，we felt relaxed after we made the last crossing．"My dad always told me to keep off a river when travelling in the rain．"Josh said as we hurried back down the path．"Why didn't you tell us that earlier？"I laughed．"Would it have made a difference？"came the reply．He had a point．26．Why were there no big stones to be seen in the stream when they came back？CA．The big stones were moved away by someone else．B．They were running too fast to notice the big stones．C．The big stones were covered with rushing water．D．The big stones were washed away by rushing water．。
