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_____.

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. Are teenagers hopes different or similar, according to the survey?_____________________________________________________ 5. What’s the title of the passage?____________________________________________________ 六．写作音乐在我们的日常生活中扮演着很重要的角色，请根据以下提示以“The role of music”为题写一篇100字左右的文章。

as family members．However，when thry have to go away on business or for some other reasons，and cannot take their pets along，they feel guilty about it and wish they could do something for their deeply loved pets．The Pet Hotel is set up especially for this reason．What do we offer？The Pet Hotel offers pets large rooms and the latest equipment（设备）．Like other hotel rooms，we offer color TVs，suitable beds，sofas and other pieces of furniture for pets．We prepare great food for the little guests，walk them at least twice a day，and provide them with all kinds of amusements（娱乐活动）．In addition，we brush and clean pets．To make pets feel at home，we play the sort of music which is often played at their homes and turn the TV to the pets'favorite channels．Pets will surely feel comfortable in our hotel!We also have video cameras in each room so that owners can check online twenty﹣four hours a day to make sure that the pets are having a good time at the hotel．We also have phones so that pet owners can call their pets and talk to them every day．How much does It cost？The prices change according to the size of the rooms．A regular room with standard service costs 1，500dollars．31．Pet owners send their

programsC．brush and clean themselvesD．book rooms according to their size．【答案】31﹣33：BDB34．Each summer，you hear news that some sports players are sent to hospitals because it is too hot．Our bodies can't be outside in the sun for a long time．So in hot summers，be careful about playing sports outside．Firstly，to play sports safely in hot weather，you must drink water．Sports drinks are great for athletes，but they have so much sugar that they'll dehydrate（使脱水）you more．However，drinking a few bottles of sports drinks will be good for you．Secondly，be sure to take enough breaks to let your body rest．If your coach doesn't let you take enough breaks in the heat，don't wait until you feel uncomfortable．Just be honest with your coach when you need breaks．Thirdly，when you have a break，don't sit in the sun．With the sun beating down on you，you'll only heat up and sweat（冒汗）more．Take a seat under a tree，or even better，go indoors for a little while．Cooling yourself down can help you stay active longer．Fourthly，remember that the earlier in the day you start your exercise，the cooler it will be．If you can start practice before the sun comes up，you have a few good hours to practise in the cool hours of the morning．Also，the earlier you practise，the earlier you can finish the exercise．If you need more practice time，come back to the field later in the evening，when the sun is setting．Last but not least，you should watch what you eat．Eat food which is high in water，starch（淀粉）and carbonhydrate（糖类），but be sure to get a good balance in your diet．As long as you pay attention to the above，playing sports safely in the heat isn't a difficult thing．34．How many pieces of advice are mentioned in the passage？ CA．ThreeB．FourC．FiveD．Six35．From Paragraph 5we know A ．A．we'd better start our exercise earlyB．it is not wise to have practice after aunsetC．we have a long time to practise after sunriseD．it doesn't matter whether you practise early or late36．Which of the following is true according to the passage？ BA．Sports drinks are good for you with no harm．B．You need to tell your coach when you feel tired．C．Sitting under a tree is better than staying indoors．D．Eating lots of sugar is necessary for sports safely．37．The passage mainly tells us about C ．A．eating habits in hot summersB．drinking more water in the heatC．sports safely in hot weatherD．taking exercise in different periods．【答案】34﹣37：CABC38．Globalization means that people，ideas，technology，money，services and many other things are moving between countries and changing the way people think and act．Not everyone thinks the same way about globalization．Some people think it is bad，and some people think it is good．Some believe that globalization helps rich people get richer and makes poor people poorer．These people say that globalization helps big companies like Coca﹣Cola and McDonald's destory（破坏）local businesses．However，the people who think globalization is a good thing argue that globalization helps poorer people to become richer．They also think that it doesn't destory local cultures．These people also believe globalization helps prevent wars．This is because countries with economic（经济的）connections will try hard to keep good relationahips so that their economies aren't destroyed．Whether you think globalization is good or bad，it affects the world in two areas：jobs and cultures．Globalization has had a very strong influence on jobs all over the would．For some workers，such as engincers，lawyers and bankers，globalization has been a good development．These workers are able to successfully compete（竞争）globally and have seen an incrase in their pay．But for those who work in factories or in the aervice industry（at hotels，shops and restaurants），it has not been good．Workers from poorer countries are trying to get these types of jobs．They will do the same job for less money．This decreases the pay for that job，so people get paid less to do it．Cultures have also been affected by globalization．Foods such as Japanese noodles，Inaian curry and French cheeses have spread around the world．We can also see an increase in the use of Chinese characters（汉字）in tattoos（文身）．Some people get these tattoos but they don't really know what the characters mean．Globalization also affects the film industry．Most people have seen American movies．But because of globalization，Korean．Indian and Japanese movies have become more wouldwide．No one knows the future of globalization．Most experts agree that it will continue to grow and have an increasingly greater influence on people's lives in the future．38．Some people think giobalization is good because it may D ．A．change local culturesB．help local businesses developC．make rich people become richerD．help stop wars among countries39．According to Paragraph 4we know C ．A．engineers will get a lower payB．people can get favourite jobs more easilyC．globalization greatly affects people's jobsD．workers from rich countries get paid less40．Globalization helps people in the world D ．A．know Chinese characters very wellB．go to different countries for moviesC．own the same culture in the endD．Enjoy foods from different countries41．What can we infer（推断）from the passage？ CA．Globalization is sure to do good to people．B．Globalization will be limited in the future．C．Globalization may change people's in the future．D．Globalization will be loved throughout the would．【答案】38-41：DCDC42．When I was in the second grade，my teacher gave all her students some seeds（种子）．She told us to watch the magic of the seeds once we planted them．Excitedly，I put a few seeds in my pot．I watered them for a few days and purple flowers came out．In class，I reported back to my teacher that the magic was the purple flowers．My classmates reported back with the red，white or yellow ones．I was wondering why we didn't have green flowers．When the bell rang，we drew a conclusion"a fiower garden is beautiful"，and this was my first gardening experience．Years later，one day，when we drone by Naperville downtown in a summer．Mom pointed out a big land．"Look，this is the community garden land．"she told me．"What is a community garden land？"I asked．"When people live in apartments or town homes，they don't have much land．People pay a little money to rent（租）a piece of land from the city．Theycan grow anything．""Why don't we rent one？"I curiously asked．"We don't need to．We have a house，so we have a small piece of land．"A few years ago，an older couple moved in next door．They gave us some tomatoes from their garden．They grew the best tomatoes I had ever tasted．I asked my mom to buy some tomatoes just like our neighbors'．Mon said it was impossible to buy those tomatoes from the supermarket．So，last year，I decided to try．I had my dad dig out a small land in the back yard of our house，put it some peat moss（泥炭藓）and mushroom compost（蘑菇肥）．For the start，I only planted some tomatoes and cucumbers．Day by day，I looked after my garden and took out weeds（杂草）．I was surprised to see that cucumbers actually grow on the vine，and my tomatoes had a special kind of earthly smell．At the same time，I found myself suddenly having an interest in weather．I always wished rain to water my little garden．My brother Alex teased me．"You are an old farmer now．" One day，I found some tomatoes gone in one plant．I was a little sad．Who dared to steal my tomatoes？It was a few rabbits．When I was about to drive them away，my dad stopped me and said，"Alice，the rabbits are thirsty．Let them eat as much as they want．Sharing your food is a good thing．"Later on，I found people picking a few tomatoes in my little garden and eating them with a satisfying smile．I never said a word．Instead，I felt joy in my heart．When harvest time came，I picked so many fresh cucumbers and delicious tomatoes．In America，people grow gardens everywhere．The air is always fresh and clean because of many trees，different plants and beautiful flowers．People there learn to love our earch，and love hearing the expression"go hug a tree"．Gardening needs lots of hard work and patience，but mother earth rewards us a lot．42．The underlined word"teased"in Paragraph 6is close to" A

wrong with you，Jane？─I'm a little sick and I am waiting for Dad to take me to the hospital．60．Tim is a manager now，but he once served as an engineer for five years．【答案】56．答案：returns．unless意思是"除非，如果不"引导条件状语从句，在从句中要用一般现在时代替一般将来时，在主句中用一般将来时．根据"unless ______he home before dark"这是一个有unless引导的条件状语从句，结合给出的英语提示，所以要用returns来填空．57．答案：is going to give．be going to do sth．用来表示按计划或安排要发生的动作，有"准备；打算"的意思．这种主观意图，一般已做过事先安排，故其实现的可能性较大，其主语常是人．根据"a talk on how to protect the environment next Monday？﹣Mr Smith is．"下周一史密斯先生要给我们做如何保护环境的报告，可知这是按照计划要发生的事情，所以要用be going to do sth．来填空，结合给出的英语提示，故填is going to give．58．答案：practises/has practised．现在完成时的构成：have/has+过去分词，表示过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响或结果或表示过去的动作或状态持续到现在．根据he will win the game"以及"because he______a lot for it．"可知他在这个比赛之前就已经练习了很多了，所以肯定会赢得比赛，所以要用现在完成时来填空，结合给出的英语提示，故填has practised．此题也可以用一般现在时，表示经常性的动作，故也可填practises．59．答案：am waiting．根据"What's wrong with you？"以及"for Dad to take me to hospital"可知詹妮现在这里等着爸爸带她去医院，也就是正在等待，所以要用现在进行时来填空，空格前面有一个介词for，主语是I，结合给出的英语提示，故填am waiting．60．答案：served．once的意思是"曾经"要和一般过去时连用，根据空格后面的词语是an engineer，因此可知他曾经做过工程师，而serve 的意思是"任职"，结合once提供的时态，故填served．五、句型转换（本题共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）请根据要求改写下列句子，每空一词．61．We held a welcome party for the exchange students yesterday．（改为否定句）We didn't hold a welcome party for the exchange students

you．"Introductions，like the one above，are a great way to begin a good conversation．When you introduce yourself，be confident and comfortable．That will make others comfortable，too．After the introduction，wait a bit．If the other person doesn't ask a question，you ask one．Starting with a question shows interest in the other person．You could ask"What do you do？"or"How do you know our host？"But asking something a little different shows you are clearly different．"What did you do last weeked？"and"Have you seen any good movies recently？"are two topics you could ask about．Another good way to start with is"Tell me about yourself．"Most people love talking about themselves．How to keep a good conversation goingAs the other person begins to answer your question，look for the same opinion．If you ask about last weekend，the person could talk about a bike ride they took．When the person finishes his opinions，you could mention an experience that you had with biking．You can then move on to discussing other sports the person may be interested in．When the other person is talking，be interested in them．Listen carefully to their answers．Don't look around the room．That gives the other person the message that you are not really interested in them．If you are answering the question，don't go on and on．Answer the question and then stop．A good conversation is like a tennis game where the ball goes back and forth．With some practice，you'll be able to start and keep a conversation going with anyone！请将答案写在答题卡上76．How do you show interest in the other person after the introduction？Starting with a question．77．Why is it good to start a conversation with"Tell me about yourself．"？Most people love talking about themselves．78．What can you do when the other person begin to answer your question？Look for the same opinion．79．Why can't you look around the room when the other person is talking？That gives the other person the message that you're not really interested in them．80．What is your good way to keep a good conversation going？（请自拟一句话作答）Keep smiling．．【答案】76．Starting with a question．细节理解题．结合文中第一部分的第二段的原句Starting with a question shows interest in the other person．可以得知，如果在别人自我介绍之后想表达出对对方很感兴趣的话，可以通过提问对方问题开始．77．Most people love talking about themselves．细节理解题．结合文中第一部分的第二段的原句Another good way to start with is"Tell me about yourself．"Most people love talking about themselves．可以得知，另一种很好的方式就是请对方介绍一下自己，因为大部分都很喜欢讨论他们自己．78．Look for the same opinion．细节理解题．结合文中第二部分的第一段的原句As the other person begins to answer your question，look for the same opinion．可以得知，当对方开始回答你的问题时，你需要寻找你们两人之间的共同意见．79．That gives the other person the message that you're not really interested in them．细节理解题．结合文中第二部分的第一段的原句Don't look around the room．That gives the other person the message that you are not really interested in them．可以得知，如果对方在与你交谈的时候你四处观望，对方会认为你对他不感兴趣．80．Keep smiling．个人见解描述题．题目问到你维持一个良好的对话进行的方式是什么，在我们生活中，经常对对话方微笑是很有礼貌的．故填Keep smiling．八、书面表达（本题满分20分）81．（20分）（2016•南通）期中考试后，Julian所在班级将进行以"学会学习"为主题的英语演讲比赛．假如你是Julian，请根据下表所提示的要点和内容，写一份英文演讲稿．要点内容增强动力（strengthen motivation）明确目标；相信自己；培养兴趣（或自拟内容）优化习惯（make habits

my ideas of"Learn how to learn"．I hope everyone will enjoy learning．Thanks for listening．【答案】Hello，everyone！I'm glad to be here to share my ideas of"Learn how to learn"．First，I think you should strengthen motivation and believe yourself．You also should have a great interest in learning．Second，you should make habits of studying better（有好的学习习惯）．It's important for you to learn quickly and better．（高分句型一）You should use your head as often as you can．It will make you clever．And them you should learn by yourself．Finally，you should pay attention to methods．Remember when you are tired，you
