Alice should buy friends with her offers．CWe know that many animals do not stay in one place．Birds，fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time．They move for different reasons：most of them move to find food more easily，but others move to get away from places that are too crowded．When cold weather comes，many birds move to warmer places to find food．Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed．The most famous migration （迁移）is probably the migration of fish，which is called"salmon"．This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water．There it spends its 1ife．When it is old，it returns to its birthplace in fresh water．Then it gives birth and dies．In northern Europe，there is a kind of mouse．They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded．They move down to the low land．Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside，and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea．Recently，scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster （龙虾）．Every year，when the season of the bad weather arrives，the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean．Nobody knows why they do this，and nobody knows where they go．So，sometimes we know why humans mad animals move from one place．to another，but at other times we don't．Maybe living things just like to travel．38.Most animals move from one place to another at a certain time to ______ ．A. give birthB. enjoy warmer weatherC. find food more easilyD. find beautiful places39.The fish called"salmon"spends a 1ong time in ______ ．A. salt waterB. riversC. fresh waterD. its birthplace40.The mice in northern Europe move when ______ ．A. they give birthB. the place gets too crowdedC. the weather is badD. they haven't enough food41.The lobsters move ______ ．A. to the fresh waterB. at a certain timeC. to the underseaD. to find more food．DIf you look at the sky one night and see something moving and shining that you have never seen before，it might be a comet （彗星）．A comet sometimes looks like a star．Like a planet，a comet has no light of its own．It shines from the sunlight it reflects （反射）．Like the earth，a comet goes round the sun，but on a much longer path （轨道）than the earth travels．If a comet isn't a star，what is it then？Some scientists think mat a large part of a comet is water frozen into pieces of ice and mixed with iron and rock dust and perhaps a few big pieces of rock．When sunshine melts（融化）the ice in the comet，great clouds of gas go trailing afterit．These clouds，together with the dust，form a long tail．Many people perhaps have seen a comet．However no one knows how many comets there are．There may be millions of comets，but only a few come close enough for us to see．An Englishman named Edmund Halley，who lived from 1656to 1742，found out a lot about the paths that comets take through the sky．Some comets move out of our sight and never come back．Others keep coming back at regular times．A big comet that keeps coming back was named after Halley because he was the one who worked out when it would come back again．Maybe you have ever seen Halley's Comets because the last time it came close to the sun and the earth was in the year 1986．Then people all over the world were outside at night to look at it．You will probably be able to see Halley's Comets when it comes near the earth again．42. A comet is like ______ ．A. sunB. moonC. sunlightD. the earth43.Maybe many people ______ ．A. haven't seen any cometsB. have seen all comets C，have seen a comet at daytime D．have seen a comet44.Some comets keep coming back ______ ．A. at any timeB. at noonC. at regular timesD. at daytime45.Halley's Comets came back ______ ．A. in 1990B. in 1980C. in 1986D. in 1989．四、选词填空-句子（本大题共1小题，共1.0分）46.-Do you think the film Go Away Mr Tumor （《滚蛋吧!肿瘤君》） is well______seeing？-Yes，The Chinese actress Bai Baihe plays．Xiong wonderfully in the movie and her humorou s performance showed Xiong's positive and strong attitude （态度） while dealing with the tumor．五、单词拼写-单句（本大题共12小题，共12.0分）47.In Liu Cixin's book，scientists found a planet with three suns，and the people on the planet______（创造）their own civilization （文明） called"three-body"．48.The date of September 3m was made the official commemoration （纪念） day for China's______（胜利）in me War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression （抗日战争）．49.

The Secret Key．BHave you ever stayed in a hotel Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with things like disposable（一次性的）toothbrushes，toothpaste，shampoo and slippers．Many guests like the idea because they don't have to bring their own．But，if you travel to Beijing，remember to bring your own things．Starting from June，some hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these disposables．They want to ask people to use less disposable things．Many disposable things are made of plastic．People throw them away after only using them once．It is a waste of natural resources（资源）and is very bad for the environment．Do you know，one Chinese person makes as much as 400kg of waste a year!Most of that waste comes from disposable things．In Beijing，people throw away about 19，000tons of plastic bags and 1，320tons of plastic lunch bowls every year!Plastic can take between 100and 400years to break down．So the less plastic we throw out，the better．So，wherever you travel，bring your own things and use them again and again．Back at home and school，you can also do something to make our world a better place．Try to do these things in your daily life：Use cloth shopping bags，not plastic ones．After using a plastic bag，wash it out and let it dry．Then you can use it over and over again．Do not use paper cups．At your school canteen（食堂），use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones．29.Some Beijing hotels will no longer provide guests with ______ ．A. cheap food and drinkB. disposable thingsC. good serviceD. free TV programmers30.Which of the following is NOT TRUE______A.

said is common with some middle school students．Here is my advice．Yours，Peter．答案和解析1.【答案】B【解析】答案：B 本题主要考查不定冠词，本题主要考查不定冠词a （an）与数词one同源，是"一个"的意思．a用于辅音音素前，而an则用于元音音素前，the用于上文提到过的人或事，又一次提到，或者特指时．第一个空是特指，所以要用the，第二个空是泛指，且interesting首字母是元音音素，故要用an，所以选择B．你看过这部电影《爸爸，我们要去哪儿》？是的，这部电影很有趣，我看了两遍．本题主要考查不定冠词a （an）与数词one 同源，是"一个"的意思．a用于辅音音素前，而an则用于元音音素前，the用于上文提到过的人或事，又一次提到，或者特指时2.【答案】A【解析】答案：AA表示反对，对抗；B表示和…一起，有；C表示为了，对于；D表示关，离开．由第二个句子"他们担心河流会被污染"可知此处表示大多数人都反对建纸厂，选A．大多数人都反对在村子附近建纸厂．他们担心河流会被污染．考查常用介词意思和用法的掌握，熟悉各介词的用法并结合句意是解题关键．3.【答案】D【解析】答案：D put up-张贴、搭建；call up--打电话；set up--建设；give up-放弃．根据Keep working hard and you will win the match和We'll try our best，可知Mr Zhang是鼓励孩子们不要放弃的．故选D-不要放弃，我的孩子们．继续努力学习，你就会赢得这场比赛．-谢谢张先生．我们会尽我们的最大努力的．题目重点是翻译并理解透彻语境，根据语境和所给短语辨析后找出适合语境的答案．4.【答案】D【解析】【答案】D【解析】根据句意和句子的主句和从句的时态，主句用的是一般将来时，而从句用的是一般现在时表将来，符合as soon as的用法，意为一…就…后面引导一个时间状语从句．A before意为在…之前，B until意为直到，C because意为因为只有D符合句意，故选D．-你能把《读者时代》给简吗？-当然可以，她一回来我就给她．此题考查时间状语从句的用法，做此类题先把句子读懂，根据句意及前后主从句的关系选择一个合适的连接词即可．5.【答案】B【解析】答案：B，考查动词的固定搭配．句意"--尼克，天变冷了．你为什么不穿件厚大衣？好的妈妈．"why not do sth表示为什么不做某事，表示的是一种建议．根据题干Nick，it's getting cold．应该是你为什么不穿件厚大衣？．故选B．--尼克，天变冷了．你为什么不穿件厚大衣？好的妈妈．掌握一些固定用法，根据具体内容作答．6.【答案】C【解析】答案：C，考查动词的固定搭配．句意：你在准备考试方面有困难吗？没有，这个周末我已将决定复习课程了．have difficulty doing表示在做…有困难．make a decision to do sth表示决定做…，根据句意Do you have difficultyready for the exam？你在准备考试方面有困难吗？No，I have decidedover lessons this weekend．没有，这个周末我已将决定复习课程了．故选C．--你在准备考试方面有困难吗？--没有，这个周末我已将决定复习课程了．掌握一些固定用法，根据具体内容作答．答案：A考查连词辨析．not only；but also不仅..而且；either；or 或者…或者..neither；nor即不，也不；not；but；不是，但是，根据句意在学校里我们不仅学习知识，还学习如何举止得当．选择A．在学校里我们不仅学习知识，还学习如何举止得当．解答此题的关键是根据语境推测要填内容表达的含义，然后能理解各选项内容，有时可能没有必要细细区分每个单词的含义，仅根据句子语气就可以判断出正确答案．8.【答案】C【解析】答案：C．考查不定式短语．句意"女孩被迫等了很长时间，这使她很生气"．be made to do sth 某人被要求做某事，make用于被动语态时，不定式to不能省略．第一个空用to wait．make sth+adj 使得某人…样．这里的adj形容词做宾语补足语，angrily副词，生气地．angry形容词，生气的．因此用angry．答案是C．女孩被迫等了很长时间，这使她很生气．不定式在句子中可做主语、宾语、表语、定语、状语和宾语补语．要结合语境选择合适用法，注意一些固定搭配．9.【答案】C【解析】答案：C．anyone意思是"任何人"，是不定代词，如果有形容词修饰的话，形容词要放在不定代词的后面，else的意思是"别的，其他的"是形容词，所以else 要放在anyone的后面，也就是anyone else的形式，又因为在空格后面还有一个名词letter，这个信件是属于别人的，所以要在else的后面加's，故选C．放下，汤姆，你不能看别人的信件．首先要掌握这个不定代词的意思，还要掌握形容词修饰不定代词的用法，然后结合具体的题目，就可以确定正确答案．答案：A．Why don't you+动词原形，意思是"为什么不…"，表示提建议，相当于why not+动词原形；do with是及物动词短语，要和what来连用，deal with是不及物动词短语，要和how连用，综上所述，故选A．当你不知道如何解决这个问题的时候，为什么没去向你的老师征求意见呢？首先要掌握Why don't you+动词原形的用法，还要掌握do with和deal with的区别，然后结合具体的题目，就可以确定正确答案．11.【答案】B【解析】答案：B，考查动词词义辨析．句意"这几天别烦乔．这次考试对他来说比任何事情都更重要．"care在意、关心；matter重要、要紧；require要求、命令；represent代表、表现．根据题意这几天别烦乔．可知这次考试对他来说比任何事情都更重要．故选B．这几天别烦乔．这次考试对他来说比任何事情都更重要．理解各个选项的含义，根据具体内容作答．12.【答案】D【解析】答案：D．考查时态．句意"--凯西，你能开门吗？我正在洗碗碟．--我来了，妈妈．"．A一般现在时态．B一般过去时态．C现在完成时态．D现在进行时态．结合语境"凯西，你能开门吗？我…碗"，可知应该是"正在洗碗"，用现在进行时态，结构是is/are/am+动词的现在分词，因此答案是D．--凯西，你能开门吗？我正在洗碗碟．--我来了，妈妈．现在进行时态表示正在进行的动作，结构是is/am/are+动词的现在分词．be动词的单复数要与主语的单复数保持一致，结合语境分析时间状语等选择合适的时态形式完成试题．13.【答案】A【解析】答案：A．考查动词的固定搭配．句意"现在的年轻人更喜欢我们聊天或QQ不喜欢写信聊天．他们说它可以节省金钱和时间．"prefer

When I got home, my friends all said that I had improved so much! I hope to go back again in the future.Carla Fonseca—Rio de JaneiroI spent last year studying English in London. I'm from a small town, and London is a very big city. Sometimes I felt it was too big. There were so many people to talk to, but I always felt bad about my English. I missed my family, and I really missed my two cats. My roommate was always using our telephone, so I hardly had the chance for a nice long talk with my parents. I think it was a good experience for me, but I'm glad to be home!Alvin Chen—Hong KongStudying in New Zealand was a fun experience for me, but it was also lots of hard work! I had English classes six hours a day, five days a week—with lots of homework. I also kept a diary of my experience. I like to write, and I wrote two or three pages in my diary every day. On Saturdays, my home stay family took me to lots of interesting places and showed me so many wonderful things about the culture. I'm really glad I went!31.

How old are you, Denny?""How old am I now, mommy?" he asked his mother."You're fifteen years old, Denny; now be a good boy and let the man pass by."I continued to talk to Denny for several more minutes about summer, bicycles and school. I watched his brown eyes dance with excitement because he was the centre of someone's attention.Denny's mom thanked me for talking with her son. She told me that most people wouldn't even look at him, not to speak of talking to him. I told her that it was my pleasure and then I said, "There are plenty of red, yellow and pink roses in the garden. However, 'Blue Roses' are very rare and should be enjoyed for their beauty and distinctiveness. Denny is a 'Blue Rose' and if someone doesn't stop and smell that rose with their heart and kindness, then they've missed a chance to enjoy the beauty."She was silent for a second, and then went away with tears in her eyes.34.

Later, when Rockefeller, the board chairman(董事长) of the oil company, heard of it, he was very surprised, so he invited Albert to come to his office. "Some people give you a nickname for 'Four dollars a bucket'. Why aren't you angry?" asked Rockefeller with some puzzlement in his eyes."Oh! Mr. Rockefeller! I like this nickname very much, because 'Four dollars a bucket' is our company's advertisement. As long as someone calls me' Four dollars a bucket' once, I think it's free advertisement for our company. It's not necessary for me to get angry. Don't you think so , Mr. Rockefeller?""Oh! What a wonderful man!" Rockefeller said excitedly when hearing Albert's words "Young man! Work harder, you must be successful in the future!

I waited in the line at the Starbucks counter while he shopped around to pick up a few things.As I was starting there I become aware of an elderly women, with untidy hair, wearing layers upon layers of old clothing, hunchbacked(弯背的) behind me in line. She had a few things for washing and seemed to want the Starbucks cashier to ring up since that queue was shorter than the queues in the store.At some point I became aware of her edging(慢慢挪动) closer behind me—closer than I was comfortable with! I instinctively(本能地) placed a hand over my purse and drew it close to me. My fear and imagination raced creating wild stories about this homeless woman who might try to steal from me.Then it was my turn to order. As the cashier rang up my total, I discovered I was 67 cents short. I called my father but he was hard of hearing. He asked me to repeat what I said but he still couldn't make me out. At that point, a long, grey arm, with holes in its sleeves, reached over from behind me. She laid 67 cents out on the counter, saying, "Here, we all need some help sometimes."I was stunned! Here was a woman who clearly had very little to give and was in great need herself.

One who is addicted to games of violence might think fighting even killing is not a very serious thing.But not everything about gaming is bad. For some, games are a good way to learn as well. Many games are based on history, city or planning. Such games can indirectly teach students valuable lessons of life. Some games can improve players' memory skills by asking them to perform memory exercises throughout the game in order to reach the next level. Computer games are known to improve hand-eye coordination（协调）and help players develop problem solving. Most games inspire players to meet more difficult challenges.Computer games have both good and bad effects. Playing games itself is not a problem, but students need to know about how much time to spend playing games and what kind of games to play. Gaming is like any other activity in life-eating too many hamburgers or too much pizza is harmful too.( ) 1. The underlined word "violent" means "_______" in Chinese.A. 怪异的B. 懒惰的C. 暴力的D. 攀比的( )2.

At the end of the passage, the sentence "eating too many hamburgers or too much pizza is harmful too" implies(暗示) that _______.A students should spend more time playing computer gamesB. students should stop playing computer gamesC. students should play computer games with their parents togetherD. students should spend proper time and choose good ones when playing computer gamesB"Up to 65% of children don't get as much sleep as they should do, and this can make them nervous and slower at school," scientists say.So how long should young people sleep each night? The answer is between eight and ten hours. If you don't get enough sleep at night, you'll have less energy the next day.But the scientists say lots of children have missed out on 4, 500 hours of sleep by the time they are seven yeas old. They say that children miss sleep because they have TVs and computers in their rooms, and busy patents don't read to their younger children at night any more. The traditional "bedtime story" helps children to relax and fall asleep peacefully. Children with TVs and computers in their bedroom were more likely to sleep badly, and to get less than eight hours' sleep. Even losing one hour's sleep a night can mean that children do less well at school.German scientists think that your brain(大脑) keeps working while you're asleep. To show that they were right, they gave two groups of people a problem to work out. One group went to sleep, and the other group stayed awake. The result? The people who slept worked out the answer more quickly. This showed that their brains had been trying .to find the answer while the people were asleep. So, make sure you get enough sleep tonight, and you'll be at your best tomorrow!( )6. What problem do more than a half of children have?A. They don't get on well with their studies.B. They don't follow their school rules.C. They don't have enough sleep at' night.( )7. If you have less energy the next day, you'll probably feel _______ at school.A. lazy and-crazyB. slow and nervousC. lonely and angry( ) 8.
