At one time there were 1300 plants and flowers in Holland, but now only 866 are left. The others have been destroyed(毁坏) by modern man and his science. We are changing the earth, the air and the water and everything around us. We can’t live without these things. If things go on like this, we shall destroy ourselves.What w ill happen in the future? Perhaps it is more important to ask “What must we do?” More and more young people have known this. Many of them are helping to save our world. For example, they plant trees. In a small town in the USA a large group of girls cleaned the banks of 11 kilometer s of their river. Young people may hear about conservation through a song called “No one’s going to change our world”. It was made by Cliff Richard and other singers. The money from it will help to conserve tigers, elephants and pandas on the earth.( )3.If we go on changing the earth and everything around us, some day ______.A. there will be no air on the earthB. there will be no food for thepeopleC. we will have to work even harderD. we will destroy ourselves( )4.

So he is a little proud.One day people take him to New York, but the poor dog is lost there. The place is far from his home town. It’s about 2,000 miles away. Bolt w ants to return to his world. He has to face all the danger all by himself. He begins to go across the USA.On his way he meets Mittens, a lonely cat. Then they meet a mouse. His name is Rhino. He likes watching TV very much.

When rabbits see this white tail moving up and down, they run away. They know that they are in danger. The rabbit has told them something without making a sound. It has given them a signal.Many other animals use this kind of ‘language’. When a cobra(眼镜蛇) is angry, it raises its head and makes itself look powerful(有力的). This warns other animals. When a bee(蜜蜂) has found food, it goes back to its home. It cannot ‘tell’ the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance. This tells the bees where the food is.Some animals ‘say’ things by making sounds. A dog barks, for e xample, when a stranger comes near. A cat purrs when it is pleased. Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning. Sometimes we human beings speak in the same way. We make sounds like“Oh” or “Ah” when we are frightened or pleased or w hen we drop something on our toes.( )11. Which one is TRUE according to the passage?A. Animals have languages like human beings.B. Bees communicate with each other by dancing.C. Animals can use words.D. Animals are brave.( )12.

From ancient times, when stories were passed down through oral traditions, to the modern era with digital e-books, the love for reading has never faded. In fact, it has evolved and expanded in various forms and genres.One of the greatest joys of reading is the ability to escape reality and enter a world of imagination. Whether it’s through the adventures of Harry Potter in J.K. Rowling’s famous series, the mystical landscapes of Tolkien’s “The Lord of the Rings,” or the thrilling mysteries of Agatha Christie’s detective no vels, books transport us to places we’ve never been and introduce us to characters we can relate to or aspire to be.Moreover, reading enhances our cognitive abilities. It improves memory, attention span, and critical thinking skills. Studies have shown that regular readers tend to perform better academically and have a broader vocabulary. Books also expose us to different cultures, perspectives, and histories, fostering empathy and understanding among people.In today’s fast-paced world, where technology dominates our daily lives, it’s easy to get caught up in the digital bubble. However, there’s something uniquely satisfying about turning the pages of a physical book, feeling the weight of it in your hands, and闻the faint scent of ink. This tactile experience cannot be fully replicated by digital devices.Libraries and bookstores remain vital hubs of communities, offering a quiet space for introspection and a treasure trove of stories waiting to be discovered.

The following can help you:Small goals work well Remember a small goal is easier to reach than a bigger one. So you’d better make a small goal each time. That’s helpful to you.Good habits help you much. It usually takes time for you to develop a habit—maybe a few months, for example, getting up half an hour earlier to exercise. Why? That’s because your brain needs enough time to get used to the habit. Repeat your goals. Say your goals out before a mirror loudly in the morning every day. In this way, you can remember what you want and what you are working for. Also, writing your goals down also works. It will train your brain to accept your goals.Make changes only for yourself. You have to reach a goal just because you want it, not because any others, like a girlfriend, boyfriend, coach, parent or someone else, want you to do. It will be more difficult to keep active in reaching a goal for any others.Being always lazy will make you fail. It may take a few tries b efore you reach a goal. But that’s OK –it’s normal to give up a few times when trying to reach a goal. But you will fail if you are always lazy. Don’t give up or you will lose a chance to change yourself in your life. And maybe it will be a great pity for you in your own life.六、词汇运用根据句意和汉语注释，写出正确的单词.（每空限一词）56.

When choosing seats, choosing a seat near the front of the plane will have a smoother ride. Soret says, “The front part of the plane is usually the most comfortable. You hardly feel the turbulence(骚乱) if it is not very serious .” Soret also says the front part of the plane is the q uietest.Taking an aisle seat（靠走道座位）is also a good choice. Soret says the aisle seats have bigger leg room. But sitting on the aisle comes with the duty of getting up when fellow passengers in the row have to use the bathroom. Paying attention to the temperature is important, too. Temperatures in the planes are usually similar to those of your home. And if you are too cold, you can ask for blankets.76.

A. a; the B. the; a C. the; anD. the; the 【答案】C【解析】【详解】句意：——你听说了江堰附近的那场大火吗？——是的，那里也发生了一起事故.考查冠词用法.根据句意“——你听说了江堰附近的那场大火吗？——是的，那里也发生了一起事故.”第一个空，表示特指江堰附近的那场大火，所以应用定冠词the；第二个空，表示泛指一场事故，而且accident的发音是以元音音素开头的，所以用不定冠词an修饰；故答案选C.【点睛】本题考查冠词用法.冠词分为定冠词、不定冠词和零冠词.不定冠词包括a和an ，表示泛指某人或某物，a用于辅音音素开头的单词前面；an用于元音音素开头的单词前面.the是定冠词，表示特指某个（些）人或者物，或者在文中再次提到该事物时；零冠词用于一些特殊的结构中.本题根据题干可知第一个空，表示特指，所以应用定冠词the；第二个空，表示泛指，而且accident的发音是以元音音素开头的，所以用不定冠词an修饰；故答案选C.2. You’d better all the main language points in your note book so that you can go through them after class.A. turn downB. write downC. cut downD. come down【答案】B【解析】【详解】句意：你最好把所有主要的语言要点都记在笔记本上，以便你可以在课后复习.考查动词短语.A. turn down关小、调低；B. write down记下、写下；C. cut down砍倒；D. come down下落.根据You’d better all the main language points in your note book so that you can go through them after class.可知句意为“你最好把所有主要的语言要点都记在笔记本上，以便你可以在课后复习.”所以设空处应填入write down记下、写下；had better“最好”，可视其为情态动词，后接动词原形；故答案选B.3. —Oh, you didn’t carry an umbrella with you! Didn’t you listen to the weather report?— . But it when I left my home.A. Yes; didn’t rainB. No; didn’t rainC. Yes; wasn’t rainingD. No; was raining【答案】C【解析】【详解】句意：——哦，你没带雨伞！你没听天气预报吗？——不，我听了，但是我离开家的时候没有下雨.考查否定一般疑问句和过去进行时.第一个空，由but可知，此处句意是“不，我听了.”根据上文问句Didn’t you listen to the weather report?是否定一般疑问句，其回答应是Yes译成“不”，No译成“是”，所以这里应填Yes；第二个空，根据when引导的一般过去时的时间状语从句推断主句描述的是过去某个时间正在发生的动作，故用过去进行时态，它的构成为：主语+was/were+V-ing形式，主语it是第三人称单数形式，be动词应该用was；根据you didn't carry an umbrella with you可以判断那时候没有下雨，所以用否定形式wasn’t；故答案选C.4. — You hurt your right leg? How did that happen?— Bad luck! I was walking along the road an e-bike hit me from behind.A. whileB. asC. whenD. before【答案】C【解析】【详解】句意：——你的右腿受伤了？是怎么发生的？——倒霉！我正走在路上，一辆电动自行车从后面撞到我.考查连词辨析.A. while当…时候，通常与延续性动词连用，且从句和主句的动作同时发生，两句都用过去进行时；B. as因为；C. when当…时候，接延续性动词和短暂性动词，且主句用过去进行时，从句应用一般过去时；D. before在…之前.根据I was walking along the road an e-bike hit me from behind.可知句意为“我正走在路上，一辆电动自行车从后面撞到我.”hit是短暂性动词，而且主句用过去进行时，从句用一般过去时，所以应用when引导，故答案选C.5. —What a beautiful box! What’s in it, Mum?—I’m not sure. It be a birthday present from your uncle.A. mustB. needC. mayD. should【答案】C【解析】【详解】句意：——多漂亮的盒子啊！里面有什么，妈妈？——我不确定.它可能是你叔叔送的生日礼物.考查情态动词.A. must必须，表示一种非常肯定的推测；B. need需要；C. may可能，表示不确定的推测；D. should应该.根据I’m not sure.可知此处表示“不确定的推测”，may意为“可能”，但是这种可能性不是很大，符合语境；故答案选C.6. —Excuse me! May I use your computer now?—________I'm typing an important letter.A. Will you?B. I hope so.C. Why not?D. I'm afraid not.【答案】D【解析】试题分析：句意：-打扰一下，我可以使用你的电脑吗？-恐怕不行，我正在打印一封重要的信.从后面正在打印重要信件看，前面应该是拒绝的.故选D.考点：考查交际用语.7. —I’m really sorry to know that people fish too often in this area.—Yes.

I thought you could follow me.A. quicklyB. quietlyC. softlyD. slowly【答案】D【解析】【详解】句意：——吴先生，请你说得慢一点好吗？——对不起，我以为你可以跟上我.考查副词辨析.A. quickly迅速地；B. quietly安静；C. softly温和地；D. slowly慢慢地.根据下文I’m sorry! I thought you could follow me.可知上文的意思是说请你说得慢一点好吗？结合选项可知D选项符合题意，故答案选D.9. —Would you mind if I turn on the radio? —________. The baby is sleeping in the next room.A. No, I don’t mindB. Not at allC. Better notD. That’s all right【答案】C【解析】【分析】【详解】句意：——你介意我开收音机吗?——最好不要.小婴儿正在隔壁房间睡觉.考查日常交际用语的用法.A. No, I don’t mind不，不介意；B. Not at all一点也不；C. Better not最好不要；D.

I’m afraid so.C. I don’t think so.D. That’s good enough.【答案】B【解析】【详解】句意：——好大的雨啊，会持续很久吗？——恐怕是这样的，我们现在进入雨季了.考查情景交际.A. Certainly not.当然不是；B. I’m afraid so.恐怕是这样的；C. I don’t think so.我不这样认为；D. That’s good enough.那是足够好的.根据下文We’re getting into the rainy season now.我们现在已经进入雨季了.推知上句句意“恐怕是那样”，符合语境，故答案选B.11. —It was raining heavily last night. But I didn’t know it at all.— Yes, the rain was really hard. When I up, I could hear the rain beating against the window.A. wokeB. is wakingC. wakeD. was waking【答案】A【解析】【详解】句意：——昨晚雨下得很大，但我一点也不知道.——是的，雨真的很大.当我醒来时，我能听到雨点敲打窗户的声音.考查一般过去时.A. woke一般过去时；B. is waking现在进行时；C. wake一般过去时；D. was waking过去进行时.由上文的last night可知动作发生在过去，所以时态应用一般过去时，结合选项可知A选项符合题意，故答案选A.12. — They say you went bird watching last Sunday. How many cranes did you see on the lake?— . They all flew to the south last month.A. NothingB. NobodyC. No oneD. None【答案】D【解析】【详解】句意：——他们说你上周日去赏鸟了.你在湖面上看到多少只鹤？——一个也没有，上个月它们都飞往南方了.考查不定代词.A.

It does not indicate ongoing action.•Present continuous tense is used to describe actions that are currently happening or are in progress at the moment of speaking. It is also used to express future arrangements or appointments.Explanation: The simple present tense is the most common tense used in English. It isused to express actions that are routine, permanent, or generally true. For example, “I eat breakfast at 7 AM.” The present continuous tense, on the other hand, is used to talk about actions that are happening now or in the near future. For example, “I am eating breakfast now.” Understanding the difference between these tenses is crucial for accurate communication in English.2、Question: How do you form the future perfect tense in English, and when is it typically used?Answer: The future perfect tense in English is formed by combining the future tense of the verb “to be” with the past participle form o f the main verb. It is typically used to describe actions that will be completed before a certain future time or by a certain future time.Example: I will have finished my homework by tomorrow.Explanation: To form the future perfect tense, you use the str ucture “will have + past participle.” This tense is used when the focus is on the completion of an action before another future action or time. It is often used in situations where there is a clear sequence of future events. For instance, “By the end of th e year, she will have graduated from university.” This indicates that the action of graduating will be completed before the end of the year.3、What are the main differences between a simple present tense and a present continuous tense in English?Answer:The main differences between a simple present tense and a present continuous tense in English are as follows:1.Time: The simple present tense is used to describe actions or states that are true in the present time or actions that happen regularly. On the other hand, the present continuous tense is used to describe actions that are currently happening or actions that are in progress at the moment of speaking.2.Frequency: The simple present tense can be used to express general truths or habits. For example, “I go to school every day.” The present continuous tense is used for actions that are temporary or in progress. For example, “I am reading a book right now.”3.Duration: The simple present tense does not indicate duration, while the present continuous tense implies that the action is happening for a period of time. For example, “She is cooking dinner” suggests that she has been cooking for some time.4.Frequency Adverbs: The simple present tense can be used with frequency adverbs like “always,” “often,” “sometimes,” etc. The present continuous tense can also use frequency adverbs but with different meanings. For example, “I always go to the gym” (simple present) and “I am always going to the gym” (present continuous, which suggests a repeated or continuous action).3.What is the difference between “have” and “have got” in English?Answer:The difference between “have” and “have got” in English is mainly about formality and usage:1.Formality: “Have” is generally considered more formal, while “have got” is more casual. “Have” is commonly used in written and formal speech, whereas “have got” is morelikely to be heard in everyday conversations.2.Range of Uses: “Have” is used for both physical and non-physical possessions. For example, “I have a book” (physical possession) and “I have a friend” (non-physical possession). “Have got” is mostly used for physical possessions. For example, “I’ve got a car” (physical possession) or “I’ve got a cold” (physical ailment).3.Negative Forms: The negative form of “have” is “don’t have,” while the negative form of “have got” is “don’t have got,” which is rarely used and considered incorrect. Instead, “don’t have got” is often simplified to “haven’t got.”4.Construction with “to”: When forming questions or negative sentences, “have got” can be followed by “to” or “not to.” For example, “Have you got a book?” (with “to”) or “Have you got a car?” (with “not to”). “Have” does not require “to” in these constructions. For example, “Do you have a book?” or “Don’t you have a car?”5、What are the main differences between the present perfect tense and the present perfect continuous tense in English grammar?Answer: The main differences between the present perfect tense and the present perfect continuous tense in English grammar are as follows:1.Formation:•Present perfect tense: Subject + have/has + past participle•Present perfect continuous tense: Subject + have/has been + present participle2.Time reference:•Present perfect tense: Emphasizes the result or experience up to the present moment.•Present perfect continuous tense: Emphasizes the action that started in the past and is still continuing or has recently finished.age:•Present perfect tense: Used to talk about actions or states that started in the past and continue to the present, or are completed in the present.•Present perfect continuous tense: Used to talk about actions that started in the past, are continuing at the present, and may continue into the future.4.Context:•Present perfect tense: Often used in questions and negatives to ask about recent actions or experiences.•Present perfect continuous tense: Often used in questions and negatives to ask about actions that started recently and may still be happening.Example:•I have finished my homework. (Present perfect tense, emphasizes the result)•I have been working on my homework for two hours. (Present perfect continuous tense, emphasizes the ongoing action)Explanation: The present perfect tense is used to talk about actions or experiences that have a connection to the present. It focuses on the result or the experience itself. Thepresent perfect continuous tense, on the other hand, emphasizes the ongoing nature of the action, indicating that it started in the past and may still be happening or may continue into the future.六、书面表达题（15分）Imagine you are writing to your friend Lily, who is planning to visit Oxford for the first time.
